Friday, May 5th 2000: Friday Night Freedom Card #2 - Match #3 Dan Long vs. Virus Authour: Alexander Michael Quinn (LD) [President] Match: Standard. Rules: Standard Rules. Title: None. Commentators: James Colburn, Iaian McBride. _______________________________________________________________________ Colburn: I doubt I'm ever gonna get tired of commentating for this Fed! McBride: Yes, it has definitely been an interesting night. Apparently there was a lot of problems with the Execs of the HDW, but I'll say no more, cause I like my job. Fortunately, this will not be the final match, we haven't got there yet, we still have one more to go after this, although it's more of a surprise to me, I didn't know about it anyway. Colburn: I can't wait to see what will happen in this match! McBride: Yeah, Virus has been fairly arrogant, and that was before he won a title over Apocalypse, who happens to be one of our better wrestlers, let's hope that Dan Long's experience from the other Feds will help destroy this arrogant SOB's ego! Colburn: Well, it's about to start, Virus should be here any second now. (Gothic walks out down the ramp to the HDW, the audience cheer for his arrival, he is accompanied by his...uh...lackies.) McBride: Shh, it's about to start. Gothic: All right, after a few disturbances with a missing President and internal problems regarding our business, we're still underway for the rest of the evening. The match will be taking place is a match between this...Virus and the uh...other guy. ("The Instinct" hits the speakers, and Virus appears on the viewscreen. Green sparks and lightning hit the stage, as Virus walks out to the center of the stage.) McBride: Wow, what an elaborate entrance! Colburn: Remember the blood from the first match? McBride: Oh yeah, man, that must take a lot of money. ("Genie in a Bottle" hits the speakers, but nothing else happens.) Colburn: What the heck? Is Dan Long late or something? McBride: I don't know. (More time passes until finally Gothic gets as restless as the audience) Gothic: Where the hell is that guy?! He better not be backing out of this match! (The viewscreen flickers on and we see Dan Long tied up to a chair with a bomb on his chest set for 10 minutes. Then it flickers off.) McBride: What the Hell?! Colburn: I got a bad feeling about this. (The lights go out and come back on suddenly, the Man in White is standing in the center of the ring, surprising the Hell out of Virus. "Sad But True" begins playing over the speakers as Unknown gets the drop on Virus by punching him in a rather surprised looking face.) Gothic: Sh*t! Find the bomb now! (His lackies run off) That crazy son of a b*tch. (Gothic leaves with his lackies to regain control of the situation.) McBride: How can this guy be back so soon?! Colburn: I don't know, but he's certainly kicking the sh*t out of Virus. (Unknown puts Virus into a suplex, but then rolls back with Virus to throw Virus into the turnbuckles with his feet. Virus looks out of it.) McBride: I can't believe this! Colburn: No wait! Virus has regained his senses and has put Unknown into a choke hold. (Virus picks Unknown off of the ground and throws him across the ring.) McBride: Wow! Either Virus is strong or Unknown is very light! (Virus goes to pick up Unknown, but finds nothing except the white robes. Unknown comes up from beneath the ring and is on the outside of the ropes. He's now wearing a white jumpsuit and seems to be wearing the white mask which was broken earlier on Wednesday.) Colburn: What a trick, this guy must be some sort of trained escape artist! (Unknown grabs Virus' leg and drags him out onto the cement surrounding the ring. Virus hits the cement on his back with a loud thud. Unknown goes to pick up Virus by the head, but Virus grabs his head with both hands and flips him over onto the pavement near the commentator's table.) McBride: Yikes, getting a little too close now! Colburn: Don't worry, they look too much interested in killing eachother! McBride: Uh oh, Virus has just picked up Unknown, and he's...ahh he's getting on the table, I think it's time for us to leave! Colburn: I couldn't agree more, let's get the Hell away from these lunatics! (Virus stands on top of the table and choke slams Unknown right through the table. The referee looks confused and doesn't look sure if he should declare the wrestlers outside the ring or just stand there and look stupid.) McBride: Now what? Hey, hey, HEY! (Unknown takes the headset from McBride) Colburn: Looks like you're sh*t out of luck. Ack! (Unknown punches Colburn out) Unknown: I'm gonna enjoy Monday, when I get to beat you Alena...beat you and then take your body like your little President never could! (Virus comes up from behind with a chair and smashes the chair across the back of Unknown's head, however Unknown doesn't go down, he just turns around and does shattered dreams on a confused Virus. Virus falls to the ground and Unknown drags him back to the ring. Unknown picks him up and powerbombs him into the turnbuckle. Virus looks really out of it now, and the referee is trying to stop Unknown from doing any further damage...big mistake. Unknown turns around and picks up the referee, gorilla pressing him into the crowd. Virus wakes up and goes to attack Unknown with a roundhouse kick to the face knocking him to the mat. Virus then goes the turnbuckle to do a splash, but Unknown catches Virus as he comes towards him and sends him out of the ring through the ropes.) McBride: Okay, well I managed to get another headset. Let's see, well you can see for yourself. Hey James, get up. Colburn: Unnh...did anyone get the number of that tank? McBride: Oh man, it looks like Virus is in trouble. That SOB has thrown him out of the ring and is going after his...well, victim. I can't believe I find myself rooting for Virus, of all the wrestlers! Colburn: Damn, this match has been screwed up from the very beginning. McBride: It looks like Virus is in for it, Unknown has him up and Virus looks like he's not even awake! Wait! Look, it's Dan Long! They must have found him, and he looks really pissed. That unknown guy doesn't notice him, but here he comes! (Dan Long taps Unknown on the shoulder, and then punches Unknown right in the head when he turns around. Dan Long helps Virus get up, but Unknown is gone.) Colburn: I can't believe it, they came here to fight as enemies, but maybe they'll leave a little more understanding. McBride: What the Hell did we just watch? Gothic: I came back, yes we found him, but the bomb was gone. (The Viewscreen flickers on and we see the first floor of the Main Office. All of sudden, the entire first floor erupts into flames as a blast knocks out all of the speakers and the viewscreen flickers off.) Gothic: What the Hell? Do you know how long that will take to clean up?! Get some teams in there to salvage, now! Colburn: I get a feeling that this is the last match of the evening.
