** The 5-Point Show **
Another innovation and historical retrospective from the greatest wrestling company in the Mash-Up Wrestling, XPW Remixed. Presenting "THE BEST of the BEST 2". A special, invitation-only 12 man tourney featuring some of the BEST - and unheralded - Jr Heavyweights in all of professional wrestling. These men are on the COME UP and XPW Remixed has just the showcase for their unique talents! Back in the late 90s/early 2000s when CZW (Combat Zone Wrestling) was on the rise on the East Coast, it was lampooned (much like XPW Remixed) for rampant brutality, bloodbaths and ultra violence. So this tournament was designed to earn purist credibility, establish themselves beyond blood-n-guts, and showcase some of the greatest wrestlers of the future right now!!! This is XPW Remixed tributes to all the Indy tournament shows, from ECWA's "Super 8" to the ongoing CZW "BoB" series. ENJOY!

XPW Remixed presents...
"BEST of the BEST 2"
There will be four 3-way dances tonight featuring all 12 of the wrestlers. The 4 single winners from each match will advance to the semi-finals next week on “The 5-Point Show” in two one-on-one contests. Then - at the XPW Remixed December supershow “GRAND CONJUNCTION” - the two finalists will clash for the right to be called "BEST of the BEST"!!!! We have an exciting clash of styles/eras and genres - and it all comes to a head tonight with our BoB2 "INTER-PROMOTIONAL" main event! The personal invites were sent throughout the fantasy eons, and legends have stepped to the plate! Representatives from TNA's X-Division and WCW's classic CRUISERWEIGHT division are in the house TONIGHT! But first, we open with a charming little tongue-in-cheek vignette from Sandow & Berry in a private library reciting and enjoying poetry. They come together tonight in tag team action to bring a new level of enlightenment to fantasy wrestling. You're welcome. Now let's get right to the action!
** CUT **
** Best of the Best 2 Match **
RUCKUS versus DANNY HAVOC versus JC ICE BABY
vs. vs.
Ruckus def. Havoc vs JC Ice Baby.
(An underground delight with a brutally hilarious mesh of personalities (especially ever since JC Ice Baby went "Southern Rap-Rock" alongside Slater & Mahal - think Yelawolf). Danny Havoc bumps like a young Dolph Ziggler while JC Ice Baby nearly steals the show with his new 3MB routine (w/ a rocked-out Heath Slater & Jinder Mahal as his band mates). But Ruckus lights up the LA nightline with a dazzling array of moves before hosting the victorious post-match smoke up. Together all 3 men put over the importance of BoB2 as they strive to be taken on the next level of seriousness).
** CUT **
_____________________________________________________________
LORD TENSAI versus SNUFF (w/ Jessica Darlin)
(Loser Leaves XPW Remixed match)
versus w/
Lord Tensai def. Snuff
Brutally stiff big-man match with Tensai and Snuff busting out all their spots (including a poisonous green mist SPIT from Tensai that is no-sold by Snuff because of his mask!) But in the end Lord Tensai finally overpowers and lays Snuff out definitively with his finisher. Post match, the power and evil radiating from Lord Tensai causes Jessica Darlin to migrate over and willingly submit to him! Tensai leaves with Jessica Darlin!
** CUT **

** Best of the Best 2 Match **
RASHAD CAMERON versus JTG versus WEEDMAN
vs. vs.
Rashad Cameron def. JTG vs. Weedman
(Rashad wins this in curious and controversial fashion. First - he defied Strangler Lewis himself (on behalf of “the Movement”) and dared him with another lawsuit (discriminatory like the lawsuit that cost WCW millions)! We all know the “Boss of all Bosses” doesn’t take kindly to threats, even with his plate as full as it is. Everybody anticipated something horrible... instead we get this tournament match-up (and Rashad Cameron's suprising entry). Match ends with a Rashad Cameron pinfall on Weedman after some shady, complicit referee shenanigans (that even the announcers were puzzled to explain). Rashad Cameron snuffs Weedman out like a blunt roach with his top rope BLKJeez stomp - advancing in the BoB2 tourney)
** CUT **
_________________________________________________________________
TRULY BAD INTENTIONS vs. HEADHUNTERZ
versus
TBI def. HHz
(Heavyweight tag team slobber knocker, with the twin gargantuan Headhunterz playing oversized foils for Ryback to manhandle and Machine Gun Karl Anderson to brutalize. HH’z get props for being cross-Territory Wars champions, but tonight TBI proves to be on another level. Relatively quick - painful - and emphatic. The exclamation point comes post match when their cornerman Tommaso Ciampa expresses his disgust in being booked in the main event tonight - and rudely DECLINES his invitation in BoB2 because he refuses to be pigeon-holed as a "cruiserweight" wrestler!).
** CUT **
** BACKSTAGE INTERLUDE **
News of Ciampa's tourney withdrawal spreads quickly - and changes to the card must be made immediately. Paul London & Brian Kendrick shrug their shoulders and pull off a quick game of "rock, paper, scissors" (Paul London wins). That means London will take Ciampa's place in the tourney - and Kendrick will contest Ciampa one-on-one TONIGHT! Whoa, high-five!
** CUT **
_______________________________________________________________
** Best of the Best 2 Match **
SABU versus SAMI CALLIHAN versus KAOS (w/ GG)
vs. vs. w/
Sami Callihan def. Sabu vs. Kaos
(“Best of the Best 2” co-main event - and it resonates with passion and electricity. This is classic CZW vs. ECW vs. XPW (Original) and neither man disappoints. Everybody gets in on the act, and tables, chairs, guard rails (and gasp!) even a barbed wire board (that Kaos gets bare-backed pitched on) all come into play. But in the end, Sami Callihan enters Altered Beast-state and demolishes his opponents. Sabu crashes & burns through a table - Kaos gets spiked with a brain buster on a steel chair - and Sami Callihan gets the chance to hoist his unrecognized & BANNED KotDM title in victory! Sami Callihan advances!)
** CUT **
** BACKSTAGE INTERLUDE **
Brief but fiery promo from Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin (MCMG), who for curious reasons unknown to them were NOT invited to be part of BoB2 (despite overwhelming fan support in their favor). Instead they are forced to continue redefining the tag team division until they get their belts back - and that starts tonight when they spoil Sandow & Berry's tag team debut!
** CUT **
______________________________________________________________
TOMMASO CIAMPA versus BRIAN KENDRICK
versus
Tommaso Ciampa def. Brian Kendrick
(Good competitive match, that is greased with lightning-fast “cruiserweight” chains - but contested by 2 guys who can wrestle with an intensity that’s 50 pounds heavier. Ciampa catches Kendrick coming off the top rope with a hurricanrana attempt - pitches Kendrick high into the air in power bomb position - before falling backwards and driving both knees into Kendrick’s spine - “Project Ciampa”-style. Another defiant, adrenaline-infused encounter for Ciampa who gives all the credit in the world to his mysterious East Coast sensei (it was he who advised Ciampa to avoid the BoB2 tourney, commentators disclose)
** CUT **
_______________________________________________________________
** Best of the Best 2 Match **
PAUL LONDON versus CHAVO versus LOW-KI
(Inter-Promotional Fantasy Dream Match)
versus versus
This match was hyped heavily as another “cross-brand Mash-Up Wrestling” match (keeping up with the BoB theme laid out last year). Included is classic-era Chavo Guerrero - fresh off his enticing familial run in WCW (and rocking the wooden horse Pepe!) - and representing the TNA X-Division, founding father LOW-KI! This is pitched as a fantasy dream match between WCW, TNA and ROH (all done on the XPW Remixed stage). The man who wins this bout is 2002 Paul London, one of the most promising, exciting, incredible wrestlers to ever hit the mat. This is ROH Season One Paul London, the guy who wrote incredible masterpieces as he contested some of the most important matches in company history. All 3 men put on a near 30-minute classic here, reminiscent of some of those early ROH salad days. While everybody gets standing ovations and “THIS IS WRESTLING!” chants, it is Paul London who wins the day after an incredible Shooting Star press to Low-Ki while he had Chavo Guerrero in a submission hold. This is also the first time you’ve ever heard the fans chant “PLEASE DON’T DIE!” in a wrestling match (directed towards the insanely mercurial Paul London). Impressive victory that puts London on another level and leaves the viewer exhausted just from watching.
Winner: PAUL LONDON (2002)

MOTOR CITY MACHINE GUNS vs. SANDOW & BERRY
versus
MCMG shine in this match, displaying their ambidextrous synchronicity and dazzling the fans senses. In ring action, Wild Red Berry is a capable grappler (in the light heavyweight mold) who none the less plays arrogant, snooty heel alongside Sandow with great aplomb (think a 1986 era Nick Bockwinkel mixed with a little 1995 Bob Backlund). They initiate a few key (and classic) cerebral heel shenanigans to gain the upper hand a few times, but in the end MCMG always come blazing back. Until the obscure “ace in the hole” Sandow & Berry referenced earlier comes into full bloom in the form of a surprise outside interference… With things well in hand, Alex Shelley is leaning between the ropes to grab Sandow by the hair and drag him back inside the ring - when he’ suddenly WHACKED in the head with a metal scroll plate by THE GENIUS of wrestling! The interference comes off without a hitch - Shelley gets Terminus and pinned by Sandow - and Berry‘s in ring debut is a rousing success! Post match all 3 men celebrate together in civilized fashion, with Genius & Berry politely applauding Sandow’s “Rotation Illumination” (aka “fruity cartwheel”). Gotta love it. The newest stud stable in XPW Remixed. You’re welcome.
Winners: DAMIEN SANDOW & WILD RED BERRY
THE GENIUS arrives!
