Tag Team: Jimmy/ Barry Vs Jed / Luke 1 punk_wrestler2000

The new guys in the TW tag ranks wanted some action. So fat just Seth and Gavin and Sandy and Hal had managed a match. But Seth and Gavin's had not been sanctioned.

Sandy and Hal had taken HB and Kane to a double DQ, but still not a win in the tag ranks for the JW stars.

Two of the JW stars or wannabes were in the locker room. In their own league they had been upcoming stars. But now they were starting over. Their record in JW meant nothing. Here in TW they had to start from the bottom.

Jimmy cast a look at his best friend since grade school and his tag team partner, Barry.

Jimmy knew it would all start again. Barry was the mouthy one. Jimmy had bailed his ass out of jams more times then he cared to remember, but still they were best friends.

Jimmy on the other hand was the strong silent one. He did his talking in the squared circle. Jimmy was on tough dude in the ring or on the mats.

Jimmy stood 6' and was well proportioned. His abs and chest rippled with rock solid muscle. Barry on the other hand looked soft and weak. But looks could be deceiving!!

Jimmy had practiced with Barry enough to know his buddy was every bit as tough as he was. Other wrestlers soon learned the hard way that Barry meant business.

As the two buds practiced the newly crowned tag champs and the tag champ wannabes entered the locker room.

Evan and Cole paid the new guys no mind, but Jed and Luke took a few minutes to stare them down, then laugh.

Luke said loud enough for Barry to hear. "Man, Jed the new guys all look like losers. Especially the sorry ass tag teams."

Jed laughed out loud. "That's for sure, I mean what the fuck Damon and Marcus or Jessie and Jack could whip those guys."

Evan and Cole could not hide their laughter. "Come on Jed, Jessie and Jack can't whip anyone."

Then Evan could not help himself. "But damn Jed you're right. My money would be on Jessie and Jack."

All four teens laughed at the expense of Jimmy and Barry.

Jimmy knew what was coming. He saw the look in Barry's eyes.

Barry stood to his feet. 'So you think we are WIMPS?"

Jed nodded. "No, I do not think you are WIMPS. We KNOW you are WIMPS."

Barry did not drop his head. Jimmy moved beside his partner, but said nothing.

Barry's eyes locked on Jed and Luke. "Tell you what BOYS, let's settle the WIMP issue in the ring. Got the balls to take on two losers?" Barry asked in a cold calculating voice.

Evan and Cole looked thrilled, but said nothing.

Jed took a step back when Barry issued the challenge. Who in the fuck did these guys think they were dealing with.

"WHOA you are challenging us to a tag match?" Jed asked.

Barry simply nodded.

Jed smirked. "You got it, LOSERS. When and Where?"

Barry and Jimmy locked eyes. "Tonight's card. Unless you are afraid to face us?"

Luke almost lost his cool. No one called him a coward. "We ain't afraid. Come on let's get this signed and see who mops the ring up with who."

The four teens stormed out of the locker room and went to get the match signed.

As they did Evan turned to Cole. "Those guys are Mat Fodder."

Cole nodded. "More like Canvas Carrion."

Evan and Cole left laughing knowing the new guys were going to get a hardy TW welcome.

As Stefan and Dale finished up that evening Jed and Luke sat in their locker room. Kevin was not as mad at them as he had been at Stefan. Kevin knew they could handle a tag match.Jimmy and Barry were ready but nervous. They had just watched fellow JW wrestler Dale get his ass kicked by Jed and Luke's stable mate Stefan. Barry wondered briefly if his big mouth had gotten him and Jimmy in trouble.

But it was to late now. Match time was about to arrive.

As they waited to be introduced Sandy and Hal stuck their heads in and told them they hoped they got their asses kicked.

Jimmy and Barry said nothing. They would settle up with Sandy and Hal one of these days.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OUR NEXT CONTEST IS A TAG MATCH. FIRST MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE RING AT A COMBINED WEIGHT OF 339 POUNDS ARE FORMER JW SENSATIONS Barry AND JIMMY."

Barry and Jimmy trotted to the ring and then did a double back flip over the tope ropes.

A few of the women whistled as Jimmy removed his shirt.

"NOW INTRODUCING THEIR OPPONENTS FOR THIS MATCH. THEY COME IN FROM THE POSSE AT A COMBINED WEIGHT OF 380 POUNDS. THEY ARE Jed AND LUKE."

A loud chorus of boos resounded through the arena. Jed and Luke strode to the ring like they were coming for a light work out.

They climbed through the ropes and moved to the center of the ring. All four teens stood nose to nose.

Jimmy was clearly the best built teen in the ring, but as Jed and Luke knew muscle meant nothing in a double teaming rough tag match. They had taken down bigger guys then Jimmy.

"This match is one fall with a thirty minute time limit. Win can come via pin fall or submission."

All four teens moved to their corners.

Jimmy and Luke decided to kick things off.

The bell sounded and Luke and Jimmy locked up.

Luke knew he had to take it hard and fast to the muscle boy. He did not want to match muscle holds with this dude. In fact he wanted the wimpy looking guy in the ring.

Luke and Jimmy locked up collar and elbow. Jimmy immediately took control and backed Luke to a neutral corner. The ref called for the clean break. Jimmy released Luke and stepped back. Luke looked at Jed, sneered and nailed Jimmy with a hard closed fist to his stomach.

Jimmy grinned as the punch bounced off his washboard abdominals.

Luke looked incredulous. He had taken many guys down with his fists.

Luke slammed another hard fist to Jimmy's gut. As he did Jimmy gripped his wrist and took him to his knees with an arm wringer.

Jimmy kept a firm grip on Luke's arm and landed two kicks to the teen's bread basket. Luke grunted as the powerful kicks dug into his stomach.

Jimmy looked at Barry and grinned. He drug Luke over toward Barry. Barry extended his hand and took the tag.

As one they pitched Luke across the ring and to the ropes. As Luke ricocheted back Jimmy went high, Barry went low and they speared the big guy to the mat.

Luke grunted as the 300 plus pounds drilled into his torso.

Jimmy slipped out of the ring and let Barry have a crack at the big guy.

Barry reached down to pull Luke to his feet. As he did Luke hooked his head and DDt'd him to the mat.

Barry saw stars as his head was rammed down hard.

Luke stood quickly and drug the dazed teen over to Jed. Jed was ready and stuck his foot through the ropes. Luke sent Barry careening into the foot, gut first.

A quick tag and Jed was in. he gripped Barry around the neck and by the trunks and gutbusted him. Barry wheezed as his abs took a hard shot.

Another tag and Luke was back in. Luke lifted the dazed Barry and set him for a suplex. But instead he dropped the teen over the rope throat first.

Barry fell to the mat coughing and gagging.

The ref moved quickly and shoved Luke away. He warned him about the use of the ropes and blows to the throat. As he did, Barry crawled slowly toward Jimmy and the safety of a much needed tag.

Barry could sense Luke moving behind him. He made a desperate lunge and touched Jimmy hand. Jimmy was through the ropes like a shot.

Luke was ready and rushed him. He caught Jimmy around the waist and slammed him to the mat. Jimmy was caught off guard.

Luke landed a hard stomp top Jimmy's ripped abs and got an audible grunt.

Luke quickly drug Jimmy up and secured a side headlock. He turned from the ref and drove a closed fist to Jimmy's face.

Luke then tagged Jed.The JW guys so far had shown the crowd nothing. Jed and Luke had manhandled them and done so quite easily.Luke held Jimmy wide open as Jed stepped into the ring and delivered three hard chops to Jimmy's rugged pecs.Luke let Jimmy go before the five count and exited the ring.

Jimmy dropped to his knees. He was pissed.

Jed stood over Jimmy. "Man you guys suck."

Barry was starting to get angry. He wanted back in the ring.

Jed gripped Jimmy by the nape of his neck and sent him to the ropes.

As he hit Jimmy gripped the ropes. He held on and tried to get his bearings.

Jed charged. He aimed a shoulder to Jimmy's gut. Jimmy was still dazed but saw the blow coming he did what needed to be done and hit the mat.

Jed could not stop his momentum and crashed through the ropes and to the floor.

Jimmy did not wait around for Jed to get up, he beat feet and tagged Barry.

Jed was just climbing back into the ring.

Barry stood back and waited, then allowed Jed to tag Luke.

Luke wondered what the hell was going on, but paid it no mind. He was set on crushing this newbie.

To Luke's surprise Barry raised his hands for a test of strength.

Luke smirked and moved to lock up. As soon as he did he knew he was screwed.

Barry's hand entangled with Luke's and immediately forced Luke's wrists to bend backwards. Luke grunted as he felt his wrists being held in place by a weaker opponent. Slowly ever slowly Barry started to force the bigger teen to his knees.

The audience was in shock as the runt took the powerhouse wrestler to his knees. Luke's face showed surprise as he was muscled down.

Barry held Luke on his knees then slowly brought him back tot a standing position.

Barry then strutted his stuff. He raised his legs and broke the lock up. Then moving like greased lightening he landed a standing drop kick to Luke's chest. Luke staggered back to the ropes. Barry was ready and nailed him with a clothes line that flipped him over the ropes and to the arena floor.

Luke hit the floor back first and looked up at the runt that had just decked him.

Barry grinned and moved over and high fived Jimmy. They tagged and Jimmy waited patiently for Luke to get to his feet.Kevin was livid. The runty guy had just made Luke look like a weakling. Kevin decided to set things straight in his own little way.

As he stood to head back to the locker room he found his way blocked by Terry and Clay. Kevin gulped hard and sat back down.

Luke slowly got to his feet and moved over to climb in the ring close to Jed. Jimmy did not take the bait. He waited for the tag to be complete then motioned Jed to fight.

Jed was enraged to think this newbie would make a come on motion to him. Jed charged Jimmy and received a solid boot to his stomach. Jed grunted and doubled forward. Jimmy locked his big arms around Jed's head and bull dogged him to the mat.

Jimmy then reached down and drug Jed to his feet, Jimmy hoisted Jed on his shoulders and walked over to Barry.

With Jed perched on his shoulders, Jimmy tagged Barry, who had climbed to the top turnbuckle.

Jimmy moved back to the center of the ring. Barry took aim and leapt off the tope turnbuckle with a little chin music. His feet impacted hard with Jed's chest and chin. Barry let Jed go and the big teen fell hard to the mat.

Luke could see Jed was out of it and charged the action. Jimmy headed Luke off with a spear to the mat. As he did Barry hooked Jed's legs and the ref knelt down and counted to three.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN YOUR WINNERS OF THE MATCH ARE Barry AND JIMMY."

The young ladies in the crowd went nuts as Barry and Jimmy exchanged an embrace and high fives.

Kevin was going ballistic as Jed was counted out. He could not believe his premier tag team had lost to these WIMPS.

As Barry and Jimmy celebrated in the ring, Rusty, Steve, Evan and Cole charged from the back room. No one put their friends down without paying the POSSE price.

Terry and Clay had expected this. This time they had made sure to have help on tap.

As the Posse charged the ring, Terry and Clay moved as well.

This was what the TW officials had waned to avoid.

They had wanted to blend the two leagues together, not have chaos.

With the Posse's big guns heading to the ring, Terry and Clay knew they could have one hell of a battle.

As the two groups converged Cody entered the scene.

Rusty and Steve may not like Cody, but they liked the idea of him fighting on their side.

As Cole, Evan, Steve and Rusty came face to face with Terry and Clay all hell was about to break loose.

Terry got Cody heading in his direction and almost motioned Clay to back off.

But then Terry saw what the others did not, Cody was not alone. Jackson was with him..

Rusty, Steve, Evan and Cole decided discretion was the better part of valor. They made a hasty retreat.

Terry and Cody locked eyes and Jackson quickly explained about the misunderstanding a week ago. Jackson told his buddies how they had misjudged Cody's actions without having all the facts.

The four HW's both JW and TW shook hands vowing to end their feud but not their matches against one another. But next time they met Cody it would be strictly one on one.

With that resolved and the potential jumping of Barry and jimmy averted, the three JW HW's moved to the ring to congratulate their buddies on their impressive debut victory.

The TW commissioners were proud of guys like Cody for making the transition easier. They knew he had a good reason to hold a grudge, but was man enough to set it aside and make the attempt at making this work. Guys like Joey and Patrick had done the same thing from TW's end.

But they knew the transition period was far from over.

But for this night a big crisis had been avoided.
