punk_wrestler2000 HW: Dane/Steve/Bastian/Jake: Part 1
The HW division was buzzing with activity. The commissioners had decided to sanction another four corners match. But before they could they needed to figure out who would be involved.
They decided to throw all the names in a hat and pick six. Four for the main event and two alternates in case one of the chosen four could not honor their obligation.
Cody was not happy about this turn of events. He figured he should get the first shot at Roby.
On Saturday morning the commissioners had all the HW report to the training area.
He looked out over the assembled 24 wrestlers.
"Gentlemen the reason I have called you all here is so we can pick four participants for a four corners HW match. The winner of this match will face Roby for the HW title on Halloween night.
Whispering shot through the assembled group of big beefy wrestlers.
"First we will draw the names of the four wrestlers then we will draw two alternates. The alternates will step in if one or two of the four can not participate."
Roby watched the assembled group as he stood with his best friends Jake and Gerrit.
"Our first wrestler is Bastian."
Anton slapped his best friend on the back. Doug moved close to Bastian and wished him luck.
Bastian stepped into the practice ring.
"Our second wrestler is Steve."
Steve strutted forward. He glared at Roby then stepped into the ring to join Bastian.
Steve figured it they picked a couple more smaller HW he had this match in the bag.
"Our third wrestler is Jake."
Roby and Jake locked eyes as they shook hands. Roby was glad his best friend got picked, but he hoped to hell they would not have to face off for the title.
"Our last wrestler for this event is Dane."
Cody clapped his buddy on the back. "Well if I am not in this, kick their asses."
Dane grinned and moved to join the other three guys in the ring.
"Now for our two alternates."
He pulled out the last two names. "They are Doug and Anton."
Bastian had to grin as his best friend and sparring partner were picked as the alternates. He was glad he did not have to face either one in a four corners match.
The commissioners looked over the six HW wrestlers. "Gentlemen the match will be tomorrow night. It's every man for himself. Tag team rules will apply. The five-second rule will apply for double-teaming on the break. The winner will have until Thanksgiving night to rest and recover before facing Roby for the title."
"Please step forward and draw a number. The two guys who draw one and two will start off against each other tomorrow night. After that you can tag either of the other two guys in. As one of you is pinned or submits he will leave the ring. The guy with the next highest number then enters."
All four stepped forward and drew a number. Dane drew one, Jake two, Bastian three and Steve four.
Dane and Jake shook hands and wished each other luck. Bastian also shook hands with Jake and Dane. Steve just glared at the other four. He had not doubt he would walk out the victor, then step up and become the next TW HW champion.
Doug and Anton watched their buddy. Bastian was the smallest guy in the match, but he was also one of the toughest for his size.
Dane was a seasoned veteran of TW. Jake and Steve were relative new comers.
Steve had proven himself by teaming with Rob and with a few impressive singles wins.
Roby stepped into the ring and shook hands with the six guys. All accepted his handshake except for Steve.
Steve stepped from the ring and walked away. All he had on his mind was winning and facing Roby.
Anton, Bastian and Doug left together. No matter what the three guys were friends. Even if they would have faced each other no hard feelings would have arose.
Jake and Roby stepped from the ring with Dane and were joined by Cody.
Cody looked at Jake and Dane. "I don't care who wins as long as Steve gets his ass kicked. Fucker has it coming."
Dane and Jake both grinned. Jake said, "You can count on that. He's cocky and thinks he is unbeatable."
Roby knew no matter who won the match he would have a tough challenge. He knew Bastian, Jake, Dane and Steve were all tough guys.
The following evening the TW arena was packed to the rafters. The audience loved matches like this.
"Ladies and gentlemen, LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE."
"OUR FIRST MATCH OF THE EVENING IS A FOUR CORNERS HW MATCH. THE WINNER WILL FACE ROBY FOR THE HW TITLE ON THANKSGIVING NIGHT."
In the back room Dane was nervous. He knew Steve would be looking to take him out. Dane also knew the other two guys were tough competitors.
Jake was with Roby. Roby wished him the best. Roby also told Jake to work with Dane and eliminate Steve first.

"OUR FOURTH AND FINAL WRESTLER IS 18 YEARS OLD, WEIGHS 230 POUNDS AND STANDS 6'3. HE IS WEARING THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE WRESTLING TRUNKS. HE IS STEVE."
Steve strutted down the aisle. As he did he flexed his big 17" biceps and rippled his hard taunt abdominals.
Steve entered the ring and moved right to his corner. He did not acknowledge the other three or shake hands. Steve was ready to fight.
"THE RULES ARE THE SAME AS A TAG MATCH. TWO WRESTLERS IN THE RING AT THE SAME TIME. TAGS CAN BE MADE TO EITHER OF THE OTHER TWO. ONCE A WRESTLER IS PINNED OR SUBMITS HE LEAVES THE RING AND THE WRESTLER WHO DREW THE NEXT NUMBER ENTERS. THE LEAD OFF WRESTLERS WHO DREW ONE AND TWO ARE DANE AND Jake."
"IF ONE OF THEM GETS PINNED OR SUMITS, Bastian IS NEXT TO ENTER. THEN STEVE."
"THERE IS NO TIME LIMIT."
Jake and Dane stepped to the center of the ring as the bell sounded.
