We open up to a photo with the words '2009' etched across it. The backdrop looks to be of a wooden floor. Another photo appears, this time showing Ezekiel and Scarlet.[/i]
What a year it has been for our dear friends, Ezekiel and Scarlet. War & Peace, Ezekiel's tag team with Marek Daisuke, started off the year as Tag Team Champions. GIW's First Ever Tag Team Champions. They won a grueling tournament and in the finals, at GIW's 'HORIZONS', they won a contest that could only be described as David vs Goliath. It was Ezekiel Pax and Marek Daisuke aka War & Peace, vs. Chip Masters and Dredd aka American Muscle in a massive 2 out of 3 Falls First Blood, Table, Ladders Match. Yeah.. that just happened.
Still frames from the match float onto the screen like they are being dropped onto the floor. Each picture highlights each fall as it is narrated.[/i]
It was a hard fought battle but the 1st fall went to War & Peace as Marek busted Chip open with a 'Missile Knee' THROUGH.. not into.. THROUGH a chair. After another battle that would make Russell Crowe proud, the 2nd fall also went to War & Peace as Marek drove Dredd off a ladder, through a table that Chip was laid upon. Now.. most people would think that that's where the match ended, but nope. Not in GIW. To win the match you had to score all 3 falls. So, after being busted open AND put through a table, Dredd and Chip Still had more punishment coming. Some would think that Dredd and Chip had a chance to make a come back. That was not to be. Moments later, Marek executed a Running Shining Wizard UP a ladder, knocking Dredd down, giving Ezekiel enough time to climb the ladder and grab both belts.
The pictures from the match change to Ezekiel handing Marek his title. The next photo shows both men among the fans, being crowd-surfed out of sight.[/i]
Marek and Ezekiel celebrated hard that night. They deserved it. Going through a rather large tournament as the smallest participants and they became the First Ever GIW Tag Team Champions.
The pictures now change to still frames from War & Peace's matches leading up to the Triple Threat Tag Team Title Match at Infinity. That was a lot of 'T' words in a row. The first set of pictures highlights Ezekiel's first pairing with his old friend, Travis Roberts vs. Mickey Dragon and Boolz. The next set of pictures highlights the first ever one on one match with Ezekiel taking on Boolz. The next set highlights another first. The first tag team encounter that fans dreamed of. War & Peace vs Hiroshima.[/i]
Besides a loss to Randy Boolzian in singles action, War & Peace were rolling over the competition heading into their first MAJOR title defense. They soundly defeated Hiroshima the week prior to GIW's 'INFINITY' show and were somewhat cocky going into the pay-per-view.
The next set of photo's highlight the entrances of the 3 tag teams for the Tag Team 3-Way Dance. Most of the photo's focus on the first time we saw the true rage of Ezekiel as he attacked Raenius In a vicious post-match assault.[/i]
No one saw it coming. That little tidbit of rage that Ezekiel showcased to the world slipped under the radar. The next week after the pay-per-view no sign of Ezekiel's temper was shown as War & Peace soundly defeated the Aussie Rebels. The following week, the powder keg was lit. Marek was in his first ever Main Event against Travis Roberts. This began the rift that some think cost War & Peace the tag team titles. Ezekiel thought he had the upper hand on Raenius until Ezekiel was handed an envelope by The Resident Evil. And later he was assaulted after a hard fought win over Aragato.
A still shot pops up of Raenius handing Ezekiel the envelope. Then Ezekiel holding his hands up in victory after the match. The last frame shows Raenius standing over a beaten Ezekiel.[/i]
To those who lived under a rock so far in 2009, you'd know that a bitter feud erupted between Ezekiel and Raenius after Xavier Bryan, Ezekiel's mentor/manager/step-brother, was abducted by Raenius and Mickey Dragon. This lashing out was nothing compared to what would happen later on between these two. The same night that the 3-Way Tag Team Match happened, Raenius and Xavier squared off in a brutal grudge match, dating back to when Ezekiel was just a little kid. Xavier was victorious that night, but the carnage between Ezekiel and Raenius had just begun.
The next grouping of photo's show a reverse of the last bit. Ezekiel is the one standing over not only Mickey Dragon but also Raenius with a small smile spread across his lips. Ezekiel stands face to face with KvK after KvK stopped Ezekiel from shattering Raenius' skull with a extendable baton.[/i]
As the beef between Ezekiel and Raenius escalated, the small rift kept getting bigger between Marek and Ezekiel.
A few still shots float by the screen. Each showing different situations where Ezekiel is taunting to the crowd and Marek is either glaring at Ezekiel, stopping an opponent from attacking Ezekiel,or Marek fighting off the opponent.[/i]
It was bound to take it's toll and at Affirmative Action, it happened. Our dear boys, Ezekiel and Marek lost the tag team titles in a First Blood Strap Match. These match types make you wonder if that Russo guy works for GIW.
More photos litter the screen. The first one shows all 4 participants in the match bowing to their opponents before the match began. The next one shows Ezekiel in a Strap-Induced Chickenwing. Followed by Marek being whipped by Aragato. Next is Aragato tied against the post and Marek nails a vicious kick to his leg, followed by Aragato using his body weight to hang Marek on the turnbuckle. The next is one the most queasy of the night, with Aragato dislocating his own shoulder to get out of the strap and then blowing the Obsidian Scourge into Marek's face. The last shot is of Ezekiel laying on the ground, blood coming from his forehead.[/i]
That night, the tag titles changed hands and tag team wrestling in GIW hasn't been the same since, as stated by some geeky kid with glasses not too long ago. Ezekiel and Marek both disappeared. Ezekiel resurfaced about a month later but was no longer Ezekiel Pax. He was simply Ezekiel. Sometimes spelling it with numbers. Weird.. but anyways. After flying to visit the name in the envelope, Ezekiel found out that in one of his earlier matches he paralyzed a fellow wrestler and was never told about it until Raenius found out and gave Ezekiel the means to find out. This tore Ezekiel apart. He returned to GIW with one plan and that was to enact revenge on his tormentor, The Resident Evil, Raenius. Ezekiel had a new look and new attitude.
More photos fall to the ground. Pictures of Ezekiel's various new masks. And a few photo's of Ezekiel blowing fire.[/i]
But.. Ezekiel wouldn't get his hands on Raenius right away. An annoying stepping stone presented itself to Ezekiel. His name was Tobias Erndhardt.After 4 weeks away, Ezekiel returned and was placed into a match against the Tomorrow's World Champion or whatever he called himself. Even though Ezekiel suffered his first singles pinfall loss, he shows that he is back with vengeance after launching a fireball at Tobias.
Some photo's show Tobias with his hands raised and you can see Ezekiel behind him. The next photo is all fire. The following photo shows Tobias lying on the mat, his midsection slightly burned. The last photo shows Ezekiel walking up the ramp staring down at Tobias.[/i]
Ezekiel faced Tobias again the following week in a 6-man tag match, teaming with 'Blessed Immortality' against Tobias, Dredd, and Gabrielle. Unfortunately, just like the week before, Ezekiel would be on the losing end against Tobias.
A lone photo floats to the ground, this time showing Tobias standing tall over Donovan Hastings.[/i]
The following week, Ezekiel found himself across the ring once again facing Tobias. This time it was a tag team match with Ezekiel teaming with a friend of Marek's, Alex Kiseragi, and Tobias teaming with Crimson Ghost. But before the official match, Ezekiel reminded The Covenant that he still had his eyes on them by attacking Dirge with a fireball and dropkicking Raenius from the ring.
A photo shows Ezekiel launching a fireball and Dirge blocking it with a chair. The next shows Raenius and Dirge retreating up the ramp away from Ezekiel. The last photo shows Ezekiel standing with Osiris and Serapis on either side of him.[/i]
After this assault on The Covenant, Ezekiel still fared well enough in his Tag Match with Kiseragi to aid him in victory over Tobias and Ghost. He even assaulted both Randy Boolzian and Tobias with a vicious top-rope double 'High Beam'.
The first photo shows Alex getting the roll-up pin on Crimson Ghost. The next shows BooLz helping Tobias to his feet. The third and last photo looks like something out a comic book. Ezekiel is nearly 10 feet in the air and is spanning a nearly 20 feet distance between the ring and Boolz & Tobias.[/i]
That attack lead to Randy Boolzian surprising everyone by locking Tobias in a closet and participating in Tobias' place against Ezekiel in the Rising Inferno match at 'No Holds Barred'. After a long hard battle that could have gone either way, BooLz came out victorious after Ezekiel fell to his doom onto the top of an ambulance, caving him the roof from the impact.
The first photo shows Boolzian in mid-flight, executing the NOFLYZONE. The following photo shows Ezekiel nailing the 'Coup De Grace' on Boolzian. Next we see Boolzian executing his student's finisher, the 'Cataclysm'. The last photo shows Ezekiel laid out on the top of the ambulance, obviously unconscious.[/i]
In a testament of his nickname, the 'Iron Man' showed up at the next Sentinel ready to pick on feud with Raenius. Ezekiel teamed up with his old nemesis, Aito Chen aka Komosube, to take on Raenius and Chassie Fear. The Odd Couple of Aito and Ezekiel proved to not fair well together as Ezekiel was pinned by Chassie Fear.
A lone picture floats down to the ground, showing Ezekiel laid out as Chassie stands tall, looking down at him.[/i]
The following week it seemed like the old rivalry between Ezekiel and Komosube was sparking up again after Ezekiel viciously attacked Komosube in his locker room.
The first photo shows Komosube. The next shows Komosube with his forehead busted open. The final one shows Komosube laid out after a shot with a barbed wire Kendo Stick. The final frame shows Ezekiel blowing fire at the security.[/i]
And also on this same episode Raenius confronted Ezekiel's newest friend, Scarlet. Raenius seemed like his was going to assault the poor girl but was stopped by Ezekiel. Raenius turned his attention to Ezekiel and issued a warning that soon enough, Ezekiel would have no choice but to listen to Raenius.
The first frame shows Scarlet inside the locker room. The next shows Raenius holding her by the throat. Following that, we see Raenius face to face with Ezekiel. The final photo shows Ezekiel standing over Scarlet, helping her to her feet.[/i]
Later on in the night Ezekiel fought Peter Damascus and Komosube in an amazing match that was marred by Komosube striking his revenge on Ezekiel and costing him the match. It wasn't over after the match. Komosube returned the surprise attack and took out Ezekiel in his own locker room. After laying out Ezekiel, Komosube himself was attacked by the Covenant. After a chairshot, the behemoth was leveled by a double-team move by Dirge and Raenius. After brutally assaulting Komosube, Raenius turned his attention to Ezekiel. After driving a chair into Ezekiel's face via Dirge's elbow, Dirge hit his 'History Made' on Ezekiel before Raenius expressed his disappointment in Ezekiel and revealing that it was he, not Ezekiel, who attacked Komosube earlier, by revealing a stolen Ezekiel mask.
The first photo of this section shows Ezekiel once again laid out as Peter Damascus celebrates and in the background you can see Komosube lumbering up the ramp. The next photo shows Ezekiel in his locker room with a shocked look on his face. The next shows him trapped in Komosube's arms and blood coming from his forehead. The following photo shows Komosube's body tweaked into an impossible position in mid-air as he is taken down by The Covenant. After this one, a photo of true pain is shown. Ezekiel's face with a chair against it and his head being whipped back after Dirge's 'Roaring Elbow' into the chair. The final photo shows Ezekiel bleeding and unconscious with his own mask laying on his chest.
The following week, everything came to a head. After the trickery between Raenius, Komosube, and Ezekiel the week prior, the 3 men demanded that a Triple Threat be made between them. Earlier on in the night Ezekiel's friend Scarlet begged to come to the ring. Ezekiel warned her that it was dangerous and he had no idea how correct he was. After a grueling Triple Threat match that saw Raenius as the victor, a brawl ensued. Raenius assaulted Ezekiel immediately after the pinfall but Ezekiel was able to fight back until Dirge intervened. In a desperation attempt to save his own skin, Ezekiel went to blow his trademark fire into the face of Raenius but shortly before that, Scarlet 'supposedly' tried to throw a flask to Ezekiel but Raenius caught it and blew the fire back into the face of Ezekiel, setting him ablaze. Raenius caught part of the fire also but managed to toss away his mask and escape without injury. Unfortunately, Ezekiel suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns from the incident.
Our last set of photo's begins with a picture of Scarlet and Ezekiel talking in Ezekiel's locker room. The next three photo's are stills of Komosube, Raenius, and Ezekiel entering the ring. The following photo is of Raenius executing the 'Full Frontal' on Ezekiel. After that is a photo is Ezekiel knocking Dirge from the ring, followed by a photo of Ezekiel hitting the 'High Beam' on Raenius. The next photo is a mess. Raenius and Ezekiel both blowing the flame let out by Ezekiel, followed by a picture of Raenius with his mask ablaze. The next photo shows Ezekiel on fire. His right arm, chest, and head are lit up like a torch. The second to last photo shows Raenius without his mask on, getting helped up the ramp by Syn and Nyx, shortly followed by Scarlet. The last and final photo of our little time together is of Scarlet. Her back is to the entrance ramp as she follows Raenius and Co. Looking closely you can see that she is smiling.[/i]
Since that day, Ezekiel has been in an intensive care unit in Los Angeles. Mystery still surrounds Scarlet's true actions. Xavier left to try and find Marek in Japan so only Alex Kiseragi is around to keep Ezekiel's memory alive in GIW. Even going as far as wearing his mask down to the ring. Scarlet stays stuck to the hospital like a baby to its mother's tit. The only chance of anyone knowing the truth will be when Ezekiel wakes from his coma, which doesn't look likely. Day by day he progresses, but only time will tell. Only time will tell.
Suddenly, the last photo fades away and we are back in Ezekiel's hospital room. Scarlet is asleep, resting her head on the bed while holding Ezekiel's hand. Suddenly, she sits up, staring at her hand. She seems to be shaking and the view slowly pans closer. She jumps again, and we still don't see why until we are closer. Ezekiel's hand suddenly tightens around Scarlet's. She pulls her hand away and gets to her feet. She stands above Ezekiel, her whole body trembling. She takes a deep breath and leans in to give a kiss. Right before their lips touch she jumps back, almost running out of the room while screaming. The view turns back to Ezekiel and at a closer glance you can see that his eyes have opened. Scarlet stops screaming and opens the door and runs out of the room screaming for a doctor.
