Mario working for SNK chapter 4.2 - AND IN THIS CORNER.....

The year is 1994 and the gang are outside the newly opened Southtown Sports Arena, for the biggest wrestling event of the year, and for the birth of the SWF (Southtown Wrestling federation). Terry, Mario and Kim sit near the side of the entrance in their wrestling costumes and T-shirts, signing autographs for fans. Mario's wearing a "Sing the Blues for me- Blues Hablam" T-shirt, Kim's wearing a "Red Dragon? Well it ain't the mother fucking Yakuza" T-shirt and Terry's wearing a "Freedom of Choice: TAP OUT OR KNOCK OUT!!- Terry Rogers" T-shirt. Mario himself has signed a few autographs for the ladies, and he isn't just signing paper if you know what I mean.

Mario- it seems like the wrestling project's got everybody hyped up today. The boss seems to have it all under control despite the ridiculous concepts.

Terry- well this is his style, unorthodox, but successful, hence SNK being his brainchild.

Mario- I only with that he'd calm down a little with the silly gimmicks. I look like a big fucking bottle of Mexican salsa in this getup.

Away from them, we see Mr. Kawasaki opening standing in front of the entrance in front of overly eager wrestling nuts (and a few head bangers among them). He stands making a speech with a big fucking pair of scissors.

Kawasaki- ladies and gentleman, I am honoured to be amongst all of you today, at the unveiling of SNK's newest invention, the SWF. A wrestling brand that will guarantee hard hitting action, high-flying phenomena, and athletic prowess. Now without any further or do, let's start off our event with a bang (cuts the ribbon with the ridiculously large scissors) now then, ARE WE READY!!!

Crowd- YEAHH!!

Kawasaki- I can't hear you, ARE YOU READDYYYYY!!!

Crowd- FUCK YEAH!!!

Kawasaki- now LETS GET READY TO RRUUMMBBLLEE!!

We now go inside the arena, and the show starts off with the usual fireworks and intro music, just like in a WWE show. Satoshi Hashimoto and Harumi Ikoma join us for commentary.

Satoshi- LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME TO THE SWF'S FIRT EVER SHOW, 3 COUNT BOUT!! I'm Satoshi Hashimoto, alongside me is the sexy voice of Harumi Ikoma, and boy do we have a great show to kick of this company.

Harumi- that's right, Satoshi. We have a tournament to decide who's gonna be our SWF champion, and a high flying one on one encounter, but first let's kick things off with a 6-man tag match... Huh? What's going on now?

Satoshi- oh no not them.

The fire-displays stops and the light dims down, and a crappy repetitive dance music plays in the background. And out come 4 crazy ravers, Kyocaine (Kyo in a coloured military uniform), Iori excel (Iori with a fisherman's hat), Ash dust (Ash crimson in a Jeff Hardy costume), and Slim K' (K' in his 2003 sunglasses and a sleeveless Bubble Jacket) they are the group of Special K', a group of drug-and drink crazed ravers that live off of their parents money and go to raves, and drink and drug themselves silly. K' is carrying a cereal box of Special K' with his picture on the front of it (which he hides drugs inside). A mixture of boos and laughter is the fans response.

Slim K' (stoned)- Dude, are you ready to get high tonight? (K' is booed and laugh at simultaneously) I said do ya wanna get high (lights a joints)

Iori Excel- Yeah! One dose of our special K' and you too will hear the sounds of Toejam and Earl and Deejay, see the crazy colours of the VR games and see multiple Purple Penguins do the Hare Krishna dance around James Pond!

Kyocaine- yeah, have a dose of our Special K', it contains the similar goodness, Smack, Crack and Pot, as well and a small dose of ruffies

Ash- yeah. Check out all the wonderful things life has to offer, Unicorns riding Caddillacs, Turtles with cornrows, and break dancing Chihuahuas.

Satoshi- what the fuck are they on?

Harumi- or more importantly, what are they not on nowadays.

After a minute of senseless waffling from the drug filled posse, a man with dreadlocks a beard, furry boots and hairy chest rushes to the ring, this is the German wrestler Roy Wilson, a distant relative to the Capoeira fighter Bob Wilson, and he's pissed off with the antics of Special K'.

Harumi- uh, oh. They're gonna get it now.

Satoshi- come on, Roy. Teach these spoiled brats some respect.

Special K' all shit a brick and try to reason with the German giant. They even give him the box of Special K'™ as a peace offering. Roy simply throws it away. Unnoticed to him, Ash dust is standing behind him with a bottle of Vodka, and smashes it over his head, busting him open. The rest of the members proceed to pummel him, and for the first few minutes, they're very successful. However, being the big strong SOB he is, he powers out of the assault and start to clean house, knocking down one after the other. He grabs Ash dust and picks him up for his "Jumping Powerbomb" finisher, and slams him on the mat hard. He does the same to Slim K' and throws the rest out of the ring. The group try to retreat, but are met with a diving somersault plancha from the ring to the outside by Roy. Roy continues to chase the loony ravers out of the arena.

Harumi- that'll teach the bastards. Anyway where were we

Satoshi- oh yeah, before we were "rudely interrupted" we have a 6-man tag match. So lets get things started.

The lights dim and the "Esaka '94" theme tune plays in the background, the ring announcer is Duck King in an "uncle Sam" getup.

Duck- (sighs and mumbles to himself) sometimes I wonder about the boss's whacked-out ideas. (speaks into the microphone)Ladies and gentlemen, the following 6-man tag match is scheduled for 1-fall. Approaching the ring, at a combined weight of 876lbs, this is the team of Goro Daimon, Gordon and Eagle. (crowds Boos)

The 3 mismatched team make their way down the ramp and are booed loudly.

Satoshi- as you see approaching the ring, these 3 are making their debut in the SNK business. Goro Daimon, a former Judo Champion, and is a very physical wrestler, despite his obvious lack of personality. Gordon is a former Police officer, and was one of the best in his time, he now comes here to dish out his own brand of Justice. Eagle, we have no idea who or what he is but one thing he is not is a slouch, as we don't hire pussies in the SWF.

Harumi- well he has to be in order to take on their opponents who'll come down the ramp soon.

As the 3 enter the ring, the stage lights darken and a sinister clown-like laugh echoes the arena, afterwards the spotlights flash around the place in various colours, circus style, at the same time a rather fittingly theme tunes plays in the background. Remembers Kurrgan's "Get down with the clowns/Oddity Freak show's in town" WWF theme tune rap, well that plays in the background. And a miniature car heads towards the ring and out come 3 relevant wrestlers heading towards the ring.

Duck- and their opponents, from the Dream Amusement park House of Fun, at a combined weight of 434lbs, there are the team of Silent White (White in baggy denim pants and denim jacket), K-2dope (Kyoshiro in a Jody Fleisch- type costume and a fisherman's hat), and Da Joker (Joker in his normal outfit and a Do-rag), they are the SCP, the SOUTHTOWN CLOWN POSSE!!! (crowd cheers like mad)

The trio of clown-themed wrestlers head towards the ring, shaking the hands of the crowd along the way, they make their way to the ring, and Joker is holding a microphone.

Joker- WELL, WELL, WELL! Looks like we have our selves a good only fashion beat down. (to the fans) ARE YOU READY TO GET DOWN WITH THE CLOWNS?? (crowd cheers) WELL LET'S GET IT ON, CAUSE IT'S SHOWTIME!!

Satoshi- looks like the SCP are getting this crowd excited.

Harumi- looks like the match is on its way.

The bell rings and Silent White and Eagle start off the match for each team.

Satoshi- okay then they tie up, (Eagle uses a headlock) and Eagle cinches in a headlock, and White is in real pain, (white elbows Eagle, whips him off the ropes but gets knocked down by a shoulder block). Look at the power of Eagle.

Harumi- Eagle runs off the ropes, White goes underneath, a leap frog attempt, (White hip-tosses Eagle) what a textbook hip toss. (White dropkicks Eagle) beautiful dropkick! (grabs Eagle, and makes a tag to K- 2Dope) makes the tag to K-2, who uses the forearm shots, Snapmare takedown, (K2 does a stiff kick to the spine) OWW that gotta hurt.

Satoshi- K2 with an Irish whip, but Eagle reverses, K2 ducks the clothesline, (as k2 whips into the ropes, Goro knees him in the back, which gets his a punch in the face response) HEY that's outside interference, K- 2...OWW what a slam (taking advantage of the monetary distraction, Eagle Tilt- a-whirl back breakers K2, and tags in Gordon) Gordon's been tagged in, and he Whips K2 into the corner and connects with a corner clothesline.

Harumi-He still has him in that corner, he pulls the shirt over his head this doesn't look good.

Gordon chops the hell out of K2 dope

Crowd- WOOO!! (Gordon chops again) WOOO!! (and again) WOOO!!

After beating the crap out of K2 for a good few minutes, Gordon sends him on the top rope for a Super backdrop, but K2 out of desperation fights back and knocks him down, Gordon is set up in position for the "Kabuki press" (a hopping moonsault knee drop). But is too beat up to make a cover, and tries to tag in his team-mates. He does, and tags in Da Joker, whilst Gordon tags in Daimon.

Satoshi- and in come Joker, who's like a house of fire. He's cleaning house. A clothesline to Daimon, and one to Gordon, dropkick to Eagle, spinning heel kick to Gordon.

Harumi- this guy's on fire.

Satoshi- he throws Eagle out of the ring. And what's this? (all 3members of the SCP run off the ropes, and all 3 perform 3 simultaneous somersault planchas, landing on their opponents, before sending them back in) STEREO DIVE, STEREO DIVE. (Joker sets Daimon up for his finisher) looks like Joker's setting him up for his patented finisher.

Joker grabs the neck of Daimon, and lifts him up, but Silent White stops him asking him if he could do his finisher first. He lets him, and Silent White goes up top, and perform his "Whitewash" finisher (a shooting star press into a Swan-dive head butt) on Daimon, then Joker gets him up for his finisher, he gets him up for what looks to be a chokeslam, but quickly switches it into a sit-out Michinoku driver, spiking him right on his head. The move is called "the Joker Choker™". Here comes the pin.

Harumi- the "JOKER CHOKER ™", THE "JOKER CHOKER™!!! IT'S OVER!!

Referee- 1....2.....3 (bell rings, and the SCP Music plays)

Duck- the winners of this bout, the SCP!! (crowd cheers)

Satoshi- the Joker Choker from Joker secures the wins for the SCP, and (sees 2 evil Karate characters coming out from the crowd and into the ring) wait a minute... that's Evil Ryu, and Shin Akuma, and isn't that Violent Ken? What the hell are they doing here? they're not even on our roster.

The overrated sprite clone makes their way to the ring, and from behind they attack the SCP. They aren't spared from punches kicks chair shots and crappy fireballs.

Harumi- this is bad. Capcom characters have no place being her, let alone these 2 ,boring clones and...HO NO! (Evil Ryu Shin Shoryuken's K2 through a table) YOU SON OF A BITCH! (crowd boos them like hell).

They kick the crap out of the rest of the SCP members, fortunately, Terry Kim and Mario make it to the ring for the save.

Satoshi- YES! Here comes the cavalry! In the form of Red Dragon, Blues Hablam and Terry Rogers.

The 3 enter the rings and clean house, much to the crowd's delight. Terry deals with Evil Ryu, as he uses his "American Revolution" (a rising Tackle version of a Tombstone pile driver) finisher on him. Kim spits green mist in the eyes of Shin Akuma before connecting with a vicious kick to his temple and Mario lays some wicked Steve Austin style Mud hole stomps on Violent Ken before finishing him off with a Super kick. The three dull overrated shotoclones makes a run for it, as they're too chicken to stay and fight a fair fight.

Harumi- alright!! Those cowards are running away like sprite swapping scolded dogs.

Satoshi-looks like Terry's got something to say.

Terry picks up the microphone, and needless to say that he's pissed off with the interference of the evil shin clones.

Terry (microphone)- for years, and years, we've watched assholes like you waltz around like you're the shit, and for years we've been forced to take a back seat to guys like you just because some Capcom fanboy says that we look similar to you, when in reality, we've develop and surpassed you. Well I say that you're all FULL OF SHIT (crowd cheers)!! No longer will SNK be push back by Capcom's ignorance. You guys are the biggest sack of shit since Ryu himself (crowds cheers even louder).

Harumi- he's no wrong there, what a disgrace Ryu was.

Kim (microphone)- that's right! You think you can jump our fellow wrestlers from behind and get away with it? You think that you can tarnish the rep of SNK? OH HELL NO!!

Mario (microphone)- So, if you have the audacity to invade our turf, then let's see GONADS to challenge us man to man, I'm proposing a 10 man tag team elimination match. (crowd cheers) the best of SNK versus the best that Capcom has to offer, that is if you have the GUTS!!

Satoshi- OH YEAH! Now we're talking!!

Terry- so there's 2 things you can do about it, nothing or LIKE IT!!

Harumi- Alright, we got ourselves a new main event. Stay tuned folks, after we take a commercial break.

We now go for a commercial break. After the break we'll be seeing a shit load of carnage in the SWF. For all you anti-shotoclone fans out there will be in for a special treat, tune in next time to find out what it is, same SNK time, same SNK channel. Don't touch that remote, or I'll be forced to send tiny replicas of Rasputin from World Heroes.

Commercial(TV)-are you a diehard SNK fan? Want more SNK stuff that you can sink your teeth into? Well wait no further than your local McSNK's. at McSNK's we have a selection of mouth –watering meals. Such as the Rising Tacos (Low calorie Tacos shaped liked KFC Zinger twister), The Mr. Big Mac (a Big Mac Shaped as Mr. Big) Mai scream with cherries (an ice cream shaped as Mai with cherries on top of her curves) the Jack Burger (a burger dressed as Jack Turner) the Joe Special (HFC: Higashi fried gator) and the Yamazaki (a happy meal with burgers with sliced meat, knife shaped fries, servings of cherry cola and a dangerous toy, 8 to collect). So come on down to McSNKs, where the future of fast food is now. This advertisement was paid for by the friends and supporters of the SNK corporation. McSNK's cannot be held responsible for food poisoning, death, loss of Mojo, impotence or transformation into Orochi characters.

Note- K2 dope (Kyoshiro from Samurai spirits) and Silent White (White from Real Bout: Fatal Fury Dominated mind) are based on and are a tribute to 2 of the members of the ICP (Insane clown posse), Shaggy 2 dope and Violent J. The ICP for those who don't know are a group of rapping clowns who also have their own hardcore wrestling federation, JCW (Jugglers wrestling championships?), while Joker (from Kizuna Encounter and Savage Reign) was a homage to the CZW (Combat Zone Wrestling) Strong style wrestler of the same name, speaking of Kizuna encounter, Eagle and Gordon are from that game too. Gordon's a cop and probably SNK's answer to Edi. E from Final Fight, and Eagle is this wrestler who wears a "stars and stripes" jacket and wields an axe, Joker himself was basically a clown who used clown trick attacks on his enemies.

Note2- Jody Fleisch for those who don't know is a British wrestler from the FWA (frontiers wrestling alliance) and one of the country's best high- flyers. He's also a former FWA champion. He'd more than give guys like Triple H, Steve Austin, Goldberg, The Rock and Rey Mysterio a run for their money. He's wrestled for many promotions including FWA, ROH, CZW, Michinoku Pro Wrestling and IWW (Irish Whip wrestling), He's retired due to injury, but he's scheduled to return sometime in November.

Note3- Here's one for the ROH fans out there, Special K' and it's members Slim K', Kyo-caine, Iori Excel, and Ash Dust are a tribute to the Ring of honor group of Special K, and its members, Dixie, Brian Excel, Angel Dust, Deranged, Hydro, Slim J, and one time Jody Fleisch. Their was usually the "Spoiled rich kids who live off of their parents money, go to raves, do drugs and Alcohol, and shit like that". And I thought that those 4 (Kyo and Iori at least) would fit in with that category (spoiled rich kids).

Note4- Roy Wilson, from 3 count Bout, is a 6'6" 297lb monster from Germany. He is no relation to Bob if your wondering, but he does resemble a similarity to Slammaster's Rasta.

Note5- Terry's "freedom of choice" T-shirt was based on the T-shirt of Kurt Angle, "Freedom of choice, Tap out or Angle slam", and is a man who'll definitely be missed in the world of wrestling, as he was easily the best thing in the increasing bad WWE.

Note6- Terry's "Nothing or Like it" quote was taken from the catchphrase of FWA Superstar and Managing director, the "Show stealer" Alex Shane, who's been in the business for 11 years, despite being only being 24 years old.

Note7- McSNK's, yeah McDonalds. It was basically SNK versions of fast food products, hence the Mai Scream, the Rising Tacos and the Mr. Big Mac.

Thanks to the all that have reviewed this fanfic, and have put up with my delays. Special thanks goes to Captainspoon/Anton/Mr. Big, for being a true friend and supporter, this dedicated to SNK fans like you. Keep on reading.
