A shot of Syren holding the SCW Women’s Championship, followed by a shot of CHBK hitting a Bittersweet Ending on one individual, before turning a shot of Jason Zero hitting a spear on Brian Kinney from Rise to Greatness a few years ago, before turning into a shot of Jake Starr hitting the Shooting Five Star on James Exeter.

 

“The leading force in sports and entertainment today....”

 

The SCW logo then appears on the screen before evaporating into smoke and the scene fades to black.

The scene then cuts to inside the Consol Energy Arena in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where pyro ignites either side of the stage and makes its way towards the center. The crowd explodes with electricity with the cameras catching glimpses of all in attendance tonight. Various signs are on full display for their favorite superstars.  The camera continues to pan the crowd before we cut to ringside and the SCW announce table to see Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at ringside.

 

Sharper: “Welcome to Steeltown, USA, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We are here, just days away from Broken Beliefs this Sunday, on Pay Per View. Adam Sharper here, alongside Shawn Winters, and tonight, we will get a big preview of a title match this Sunday.”

 

Winters: “AJ Helms and Angelica Jones are going to clash in that ring later tonight. We’ll see whether someone can get the inside track, an advantage going into their Lexiless fight this Sunday.”

 

Sharper: “Not just that, we know Vixen Cain, Merrick Wiseman, Selena Frost and Kelcey Wallace all here. We expect to see Ravyn Taylor and Dante McCaffery make some parting shots. And on top of that, Katie Steward has said she’ll treat Asher Hayes to a special service for the Goddess in her church in Los Angeles. We’ll get their live when that takes place.”

 

Winters: “That should be a moving experience!”

 

Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my saviour
In my time of need

The lights in the arena go dim. The big screen flashes to life. “Angels” by Within Temptation starts to play. An image of Angelica Jones followed by one of Kayla Jones and then the word “Sisterhood” appears on the tron. Pyro goes off and immediately following the pyro the lights come back on. Angelica Jones and her sister Kayla come running through the curtain and out onto the stage. They hold the SCW World Tag Team Championship belts over their shoulders. The crowd comes alive with loud cheering for the pair of siblings who pump their fists, trying to get the crowd excited and into this! The crowd responds in kind with loud cheers.

Sharper: “The World Tag Team Champions opening us up here tonight in Pittsburgh. That match against AJ Helms, that’s scheduled for later.”

 

Winters: “They’re not in their gear. Last week, Honour Code not only agreed, but got Lexi von Aaron to agree to not get involved this Sunday.”

 

Sharper: “It’s what they want.”


Angelica and Kayla look into each other’s eyes, nod, and then turn and begin to make their way with a determined stride towards the ring, taking time to slap the hands of a few fans along the way. Kayla slides into the ring from underneath the bottom rope and then she hops up onto the second turnbuckle, facing the crowd, and raising both arms up high in the air. Angelica, meanwhile, takes a sharp turn to the right and then ascends the steel steps, making her way up to the ring apron. She strolls slowly to the center before turning towards the audience. She looks out intensely at the crowd before posing with both arms raised high into the air. Angelica hops down as Kayla walks over to the corner and is handed a microphone. She takes it and turns before handing it to Angelica. Kayla turns back and grabs another microphone as Angelica starts to speak.

 

Angelica: “This Sunday, Kayla and I are going to defend our World Tag Team Championships against Honour Code….BUT….only on one condition and what was that, Kayla?”

 

Kayla: “Oh yes….a certain brunette was not to get involved.”

 

Angelica: “Ravyn Taylor?”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Kayla: “No….”

 

Angelica looks around.

 

Kayla: “She’s far more annoying.”

 

Angelica: “Oh yes….Lexi….von Aaron. Not Helms. And not a Princess. But also not someone we give a damn about. But see, if Lexi von Aaron shows up this Sunday, the match is over and we win. Not if she gets involved. Not if she hits one of us. If her face appears in the arena while we are competing, it’s over. And how did Honour Code respond?”

 

Kayla smiles.

 

Kayla: “Exactly as we figured. They agreed.”

 

Angelica: “Amazing…amazing what happens when you can trust the people on the other side of the ring….but they went one step forward.”

 

Kayla: “Oh yes, they managed to bring the former redhead to the ring and forced her to make clear she understood and well, she does….and so now we can get to business. These…”

 

Kayla holds up her World Tag Team Championship belt as Angelica does the same.

 

Angelica: “But there’s one little blip before then and that’s that later tonight, I will have a bit of a preview against AJ Helms later tonight. And we all know that Lexi is going to be right there, probably getting involved in some way and trying to give AJ the help that he not only doesn’t need, but won’t help him anyways. So…how do we deal with that?”

 

Kayla: “Did we bring a cage? Maybe we just throw her in a trunk somewhere? Doesn’t someone else hate her?”

 

Angelica: “Yes…but we’re not that desperate Kayla…”

 

Kayla: “Damn….This could have been Breeze!”

 

Kayla smirks as the crowd roars and some boo.

 

Angelica: “But it just means that Kayla, you’ll have to make something clear to Little Miss von Aaron….”

 

Kayla looks around.

 

Kayla: “Oh…what’s that?”

 

Angelica: “Well, there is a lot you’re good at, but one thing you’re really good at…and it’s something we plan to make Shaun Cruze and AJ Helms experience this Sunday as long as Lexi doesn’t show up…”

 

Kayla looks around, thinking.

 

Angelica: “That work for a hint?”

 

Kayla: “Oh yeah…I know….I’ll kick her teeth down her throat!”

 

Kayla looks out as the crowd roars. Just then, suddenly, someone comes out from under the ring. The figure rolls into the ring and Kayla turns as Angelica points to Kayla, playing to the crowd. Kayla then runs at the figure, Lexi von Aaron, who has a pipe in her hand and she nails Kayla in the ribs. Kayla falls over. Angelica turns and runs at Lexi as Lexi goes and swings at Angelica’s head, but she ducks. Lexi turns and Angelica goes for a superkick, but Lexi drops back and rolls to the floor, backing away. She then starts to circle around the ring.

 

Sharper: “Lexi von Aaron from under the ring! With a pipe! She just nailed Kayla Jones with a pipe!”

 

The camera follows Lexi.

 

Lexi: “You’re not going to do anything to AJ! He’s going to be Tag Champs and his teeth are going to stay in his mouth! His beautiful mouth!”

 

Lexi yells into the ring. She hops onto the apron as Angelica checks on Kayla. Angelica turns and grabs her belt to use as a weapon and Lexi backs back down. She then walks around the ring some more and swings in with the pipe. Angelica gets up and heads over and kicks at the ropes. Lexi jukes back as officials run down from the back. Angelica backs up and Kayla holds her ribs slowly stirring.

 

Sharper: “Lexi von Aaron may not be allowed around the ring this Sunday, but she made her presence felt already tonight. And then AJ and Angelica will meet later.”

 

Winters: “Big story is Kayla Jones. The pipe to the ribs. And we’ve seen it with Selena. A rib injury could be a gamechanger!”

 

The crowd looks on as Lexi continues to head around the ring. We then cut to the back.

 

Backstage we see Christina Matsui talking to one of the officials backstage.

 

Christina: “Look, with Mr. D not here, we need to just make sure we’ve got things covered. The Board is already given me some things to promote while he’s off before Broken Beliefs.”

 

Another individual walks over to Christina as the first official leaves.

 

Christina: “Yes?”

 

Official: “Just wanted to let you know that Lexi attacked Sisterhood again. We may need to figure something out for later when Angelica and AJ face each other.”

 

Christina sighs.

 

Christina: “I’ll see what can be done. Thanks.”

 

The official nods and heads off. Christina looks at her clipboard and checks a few things. She then looks up as another individual walks up to her.

 

Christina: “How can I hel-“

 

The camera pans out as Blake Mason is standing next to her. The crowd boos loudly.

 

Blake: “Well good, you’re helpful. Because I happen to have changed my mind.”

 

Christina: “Changed your mind…Is this about facing Shawn Mason this Sunday?”

 

Blake: “Oh I haven’t changed my mind about that. I plan to at least get some measure of revenge against him and show everyone the Perfect Mind made the Perfect Mistake by being involved that travesty and attempted career ending.”

 

Blake looks at Christina and pauses.

 

Blake: “No. I’ve changed my mind about simply watching in a luxury box as Simon Lyman and Donovan Kayl face each other in the feel good story for the night. No, I think I should be in that ring.”

 

Christina: “Blake…I’m not going to let you get involved in that.”

 

Blake: “I’m not saying compete…make me the special referee then….I’ll make sure I treat them as fairly as I can.”

 

Christina: “Blake. It won’t happen. We are discussing singles matches for the future. But not this Sunday.”

 

Blake just nods.

 

Blake: “I figured as much. Then I’ll just force the issue. Simon’s going to be out there later, right….I think I may just see what he has to say face to face. And we’ll just see if Donovan has the balls to stop me.”

 

Blake then turns and heads off.

 

Christina: “Blake!”

 

Christina just watches him leave and sighs as the scene fades to black.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

Breakdown returns as we see Lexi von Aaron heading backstage and she immediately runs over to one of the doors backstage. She then starts to pound on the door.

 

Lexi: “AJ! I know you’re in there! Didn’t you like what I did? See! I did more than Shaun ever did. I’m going to make sure you’re Tag Team Champions!”

 

Lexi pounds on the door some more.

 

Lexi: “Come on! Aren’t you going to let me in so we can celebrate before your big win later!”

 

Lexi smiles as she then leans in and kisses the door.

 

Lexi: “Come on, AJ….you know you want to feel these lips all over you…..and just think of what we can do with the Tag Team Titles when we’re champions….I may not be able to get involved this Sunday, but I will do everything to make sure you win…”

 

Lexi leans against the door a moment before stepping bac and pouting.

 

Lexi: “Probably just focused on your match later. Don’t worry…we can celebrate in the ring after it!”

 

Lexi smiles and kisses the door before turning and running off. A few moments pass before the door opens. We then see the door open. Marie Jones steps out and shakes her head. The crowd cheers as we cut away.

 

In another area of the backstage area, we open to see Blake Mason with Bree Lancaster. The crowd boos.

 

Bree: “Look…you’re letting this get to you-“

 

Blake: “They tried to injure me.”

 

Bree: “But, well…”

 

Bree looks at Blake.

 

Blake: “Who cares? Cruze, Kayl, and Shawn Mason, they’re not goody two-shoes. They’re not innocent even if…so….”

 

Bree: “Well it’s not just that….did you ask what the hell is this about me facing Brett Sinclaire at Broken Beliefs?”

 

Blake: “I didn’t get to it. Christina was too busy not even hearing me out.”

 

Bree sighs.

 

Bree: “Fine…then I’ll just make my thoughts on that known a bit later. That’s something else that can end….Brett Sinclaire and my name in the same sentence. He attacked me months ago and now things are going his way….and he’s everything….”

 

Blake: “An interesting coincidence, huh?”

 

Bree: “You said it….”

 

Bree and Blake then turn and head off screen.

 

Akira Kimura vs. Konrad Raab

Television Championship Eliminator

 

The sound of the bell sounds capturing the SCW crowd’s attention, all eyes focusing on the ring where Phillips stands with his trusty microphone in hand…

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman!!! The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a Television Championship Qualifying match!”

Cold as Ice by M.O.P plays over the sound system as Konrad comes out with Henry being on the left hand side through the curtain just wearing his blue and white mask with white hair along with his wrestling trousers with his nickname The Iceman on the front of them with Pit Bull Energy logos on the side of his trousers with black gloves on both of his hands with a side cross necklace on his neck.

Phillips: “Making his way to the ring first, from Cologne, Germany, he is The Iceman, Konrad Raab!”

He then high fives the fans before he goes up the stairs before going in-between the ropes and does a holdup on each turnbuckle and everyone cheers him as before he gets down from the turnbuckle and does a few boxing punches to the cameras before he discusses things with Henry before he looks at his opponent waiting for the match to start.

Winters: “There is everyone’s favourite loser with his enabler.”

Sharper: “Hey now that isn’t fair at all Shawn.”

Winters: “Honestly, life isn’t fair and I’ll be honest again if he and his trainers spent more time talking strategy than tweeting about their life, maybe they’ll get the job done in the ring.”

Sharper: “He has a lot of heart, that much you cannot deny.”

Winters: “But that’ll only get him so far not only in this business, but life as well and tonight he has another opportunity to get a crack at the TV title next week.”

Phillips: “And his opponent…”

The opening from ‘Lucifer’s Theme (SCW Remix)’ by the Heavy Young Heathens kicks in over the PA system, two red strobe lights either side of the entrance way flashing in unison as the lights in the arena dim. Smoke starts to our through the entrance way as the rift kicks in and the lyrics begin

I start to wonder is this real life
Throw out a candle, turn out the light
the cause of morals make you feel like you're better than it
Think twice, being evil has a price

Phillips: And his opponent, now heading to the ring and weighing in at 193Ibs, he is originally from Hiroshima, Japan and is now residing in Las Vegas Nevada. He is the … Akiiiiiiiira… Kimuuuuuuuuuuura

Akira slides under the bottom rope and chooses a turnbuckle, jumping onto the second rope and raising both his arms aloft, a single spotlight now landing on him, as the arena lights fade back in.
Akira bounces on the second rope and somersaults backwards into the ring as the music fades

Winters: “This guy, this is one to watch if I say so myself.”

Sharper: “Akira certainly has seen success here in SCW since arriving, tonight looking to cement himself as the next challenger to the TV title.”

Winters: “A great opportunity for him.”

Sharper: “This is a great opportunity for both these men.”

Aikra stands on one side of the ring, Raab stands in the opposite corner, the SCW fans letting the men know they’re ready for what could be a hotly contested match to see who faces the winner of Jake Starr and Brett Sinclaire. The attention however is on these two with the bell sounding off and both men staying in their respective corners. They both look to be eyeing the other up Akira is the first to slowly walk out with Konrad following suit. The two beginning to circle, Raab turns to pull at the ropes to loosen up but as he does Akira quickly runs across the ring and hit’s a drop kick sending Raab through the ropes to the outside.

Sharper: “Akira wasting no time at all.”

Winters: “With what’s on the line, that’s a given he isn’t here to make nice with Raab. He said about as much on Twitter!”

Raab quickly gets back to his feet and considers the ring where Akira is motioning for him to get back in with both hands. The Japanese athlete showing a lot of confidence right off the bat. Kimura backs up upon the official’s behest allowing Konrad to re-enter the ring. The SCW fans cheer Raab on while giving a mixed reaction to Akira. But both men garner a reaction when they approach each other, Konrad trying to talk to Akira but he has none of it and quickly strikes him in the throat with an open palm!



The Fans oooh, and follow up with some boo’s now when Akira Irish whips Konrad into the ropes before hiptossing him into the canvas. Raab springs back up to his feet only to get doubled over by a spin kick into the gut. Kimura quickly runs the ropes and returns with a stiff knee lift sending Raab down to the canvas, quickly Kimura covers hooking both legs.

1… KICK OUT By Raab!

Sharper: “Quick attempt at a pin there, Akira not wanting this match to go on too long.”

Winters: “I don’t know about that, but Raab is a lot larger so you could have a point.”

Raab is quick to roll away holding his chest, he gets to his knees and then his feet. Akira continues with the offensive, but gets caught with a kick to the gut from the German international star. A clubbing blow follows to the back of Akira Kimura who is sent to the ropes with an Irish whip of his own from Raab. Kimura returns charging at Konrad only to connect with a clothesline from the German. Kimura springs back up and is caught with another. Kimura springs up one final time and spins around only to get caught with a thez press from Raab who mounts and begins to hammer away with right hands to a blocking Akira.

Sharper: “Raab with some tunnel vision there with those heavy hitting right hands.”

Winters: “I would say he should be careful, he apparently has this explosive anger issue. If he did, I’m sure it would benefit him tenfold. If you got it, use it that’s what I say.”

The fans begin to rally behind Raab who steps away from Kimura and begins to run his hands over his head for a moment obviously showing signs of that anger bubbling to the surface. Kimura rolls away to the apron and begins to pull himself up using the ropes. Konrad wastes little time himself looking to get back on the offensive and hooks his arm around the neck of Kimura before draping over his other arm. He tries for a suplex, but Kimura holds onto the middle rope with his free hand. Raab tries again but to no avail, Kimura drives a knee into the side of Raab now not once but twice catching him off guard. Raab winces a little loosening his grip. Akira then drives his shoulder into the gut of Raab with aid of the middle ropes doubling him over. Using the top rope Akira slingshots over the top of Raab and goes for a sunset flip roll up to great effect.

1… NO! RAAB ROLLS BACK!

Raab does exactly that rolling back from the attempt only to grab Akira by the throat while his legs rest on his shoulders, he then lifts Akira Kimura up into the air and connects with a vicious looking Choke slam and power bomb combination before holding him there for a pin.

1…

2… NO! KICK OUT BY KIMURA!!

Sharper: “The Iceinator wasn’t enough to put him away there, big move, missed opportunity”

Winters: “Story of his career, isn’t it?”

Konrad holds his head before getting back to his feet, Akira holds his back as he continues to lay on the canvas. Much to his dismay it doesn’t end there when Konrad quickly drops and elbow across the chest. The German superstar gets to his feet, this time pulling a dazed Akira with him and drags him over to a corner. Only then does he unload a series of boxing combinations on the Japanese superstar dazing him more and more.

Winters: “Some good shots there, his fighting and MMA background on full display. This is actually more like it.”

Sharper: “If I didn’t know you better I’d say you were impressed Shawn.”

Winters: “Ha-ha, let’s not get crazy now.”

A European uppercut connects finally to Akira sending him back into the corner while Raab backs up ready to unload something else. He walks across to the opposite corner and looks at the dazed Akira Kimura, he then runs across full speed looking for a huge spear. But Kimura was playing possum and vaults over the incoming Konrad Raab like he was a hurdle in the hundred-metre dash. Missing Akira is one thing though, the steel ring post was not so lucky much like Raab shoulder which echoes with a vicious crack.

Winters: “Oooh I felt that from here and listening to the crowd so did they and I challenge anyone at home NOT to as well.”

Sharper: “That was painful, the look on Raab’s face says it all.

Konrad falls out of the corner into a seated position hold his shoulder, but in doing so leaves him completely open which Akira takes full advantage of. Running across the ring Akira drives a knee into the back of Raabs head before covering him quickly.

1…

2…

3? NO! RAAB KICKS OUT.

The fans roar as Raab powers out of the pin fall with all he can muster, pain etched onto his face as he holds his shoulder still. Akira however wastes no time whatsoever pulling him to his feet and pushing him back into a corner. The ref tries to tell Kimura to give Raab a moment but he doesn’t listen and begins to thrust his double fists into the gut of Konrad Raab. Only then does Akira crouch down for a moment before launhing himself up with an uppercut to the jaw of Raab, the large German falling into a seated position in the corner.

Sharper: “huge uppercut from Akira, he calls that Dark Wind Rising.”

Winters: “Judging from the vacant look in Raabs eyes, I’d say it did more than that.”

Akira begins to choke Raab out with a boot to the throat now which gets a series of boo’s from the SCW fans now. The official tries to get him to step away but he isn’t listening again, this time the official begins the five count.

1…

2…

3…

4.. Akira steps away from Raab.

Sharper: “Uncalled for there, there is no need for that at all.”

Winters: “He had till the count of five, he’s working within the confines of the rules Adam, besides it’s a different style over there in Japan.”

Confidence is oozing on the face of Akira now as he swaggers almost towards Raab who is clearly in pain. Grabbing his arm Raab is yanked to his feet by Akira and sent across the ring to the opposite corner. The fans trying their best to rally behind Raab and get him back into this match. Raab leans back into the corner wincing in pain, Kimura runs across looking for a flying kick but Konrad charges out of the corner and beats him to the punch with a strong spear that sends both men crashing to the ring. Only then Konrad drapes an arm over the prone Kimura

1…

2…

3? NO! KIMURA KICKS OUT!

Winters: “WOW, even I thought he had it there for a moment…”

Sharper: “But the damage may be done to both.”

Both men remain down but it’s Akira who begins to stir first, the buzz from the fans is gradually rising now with Konrad beginning to move next. He then rolls to his knees while Akira is on his feet and with that said the Japanese superstar hits the ropes and connects with a shining wizard to Raab! The German falls back close to a corner while Kimura rolls out to the apron and quickly scales the corner. The SCW fans begin to get louder and louder trying to get Raabs attention, but Kimura leaps off and hitting the 450 somersault on the downed Raab.

Sharper: “Little Boys Revenge on Konrad Raab and even now I still can’t believe that move is called that.”

Winters: “HA-HA You and me both, but it IS impressive and could be enough.”

Raab lays prone on the canvas now as the SCW fans boo loudly, Kimura covers Konrad hooking both legs as the official bgins to count.

1…

2…

3!!!

The bell sounds causing the fans to erupt, a mixture now of boo’s and some cheers while ‘Lucifer’s Theme (SCW Remix)’ by the Heavy Young Heathens hits over the P.A System, Phillips then begins to announce the victor…

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, the winner of this match as a result of a pin fall… AKIRA KIMURA!!!”

Sharper: “The fans not fond of that result, but you cannot take away the fight we just watch unfold tonight.”

Winters: “No you can’t and we’ll find out just who Kimura will be facing later tonight when Jake Starr takes on the TV Champion Brett Sinclaire.

Just then the screen quickly splits off showing Torsten Voight with his manager Eric Teufe watching the events that transpired inside the ring intently. Both men nod before walking off camera, where we return to ringside.

Sharper: “And what exactly are those two doing right now?”

Winters: “I had heard rumors of a possibly alliance being formed, maybe they were scouting.”

Sharper: “Sounds like trouble to me and there’s enough of that going around at the moment here in SCW.”

 

Kimura starts to leave the ring.

 

The scene opens up as we see Dante McCaffery walking backstage. The crowd boos seeing him before we see Alex Drake walking up to him.

 

Drake: “Hey!”

 

Dante just smirks a bit and Drake heads over to him.

 

Drake: “Hey!”

 

Dante: “Mr. Drake…”

 

Drake looks at him.

 

Drake: “Where’s Raven?”

 

Dante: “You mean the model, actress, whatever she is that you’ve discovered.”

 

Drake: “Sure…whatever. I saw she left with you. I’m paying her salary-“

 

Dante: “Well first off, I made her a better offer and I feel she would rather spend her time with me. As for you…”

 

Dante smirks as he reaches into his coat.

 

Drake: “Wait…wait…I don’t want money. I need her for other things. We have plans.”

 

Dante: “Plans that involve you looking completely outclassed by Dark Fantasy. Look, you played with fire and got burned. I however know how to put a fire out. And I wasn’t going to give you money.”

 

Drake looks at him.

 

Drake: “Then what?”

 

Dante reaches into his chest pocket and pulls out a card and hands it to Drake.

 

Dante: “You look like you need help. And frankly, I’m happy to provide it in very certain circumstances. Now, if you excuse me, I have something else to attend to.”

 

Dante turns and heads off as Drake looks at the card as Dante heads off.

 

“Immortals” then starts to play and the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Katie Steward and her posing.

 

Sharper: “It seems like its time. We’re told when we return, we will go live to Los Angeles where Katie Steward will hold her service and Asher Hayes is invited.”

 

Winters: “Can help Asher Hayes understand what she’s about and the respect she demands!”

 

Sharper: “Breakdown continues after this!”

 

The scene fades to black.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

We open up with a shot of the outside of the Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The crowd cheers seeing their home arena.

 

Sharper: “We are here live in Pittsburgh for Breakdown. The last stop before Broken Beliefs this Sunday in New Jersey and on a night where AJ Helms will face Angelica Jones. Jake Starr challenges for the TV Title. We’ll hear from Simon Lyman and more.”

 

Winters: “And moments ago, Dante McCaffery was busy. The chess match may still be going on.”

 

We then cut to a shot of the outside of Katie Steward’s Church in Los Angeles.

 

Sharper: “There is the sight of Katie Steward’s Church. Yes, the Goddess of Desire has a church. Asher Hayes has arrived and we are going to take you there as the service is about to begin.”

 

The scene fades to the inside of the church. We see Asher Hayes just looking around as he just scoffs. He takes off his sunglasses and places them in his shirt pocket. He then takes a few steps forward and then sighs before stepping into one of the benches that make up the pews and sits down in it. He then looks around. The camera angle changes as we see the alter, complete with pictures of what appears to Katie Steward in stain glass. A few moment pass before we hear the sound of “Mercy on Me” start to play on an organ. The music booms throughout the near empty church. Hayes just looks around. We then hear a door open as we see Maddy Steward and TJ Johnson walk out from the side. They then stand off on either side of the center of the stage, in white and pink garb. We then see Katie Steward walk out from the back. She smiles as she looks out at the congregation.

 

Katie: “May the Goddess be with you all.”

 

Katie then bows before turning around as Asher Hayes just sighs. Katie seems to be preparing something as the music continues to play before then coming to an end. Katie turns around as Maddy moves a podium and places it in the middle of the stage. She then steps back as Katie turns around, holding a large book. She places it on the podium.

 

Katie: “Today, our message is one about the power of love. Our Goddess teaches us all that love for oneself is the most powerful feelings we all can have. It is important to have confidence in oneself and respect for yourself and to always ensure that you represent yourself to the highest level and defend what you stand for. But in order to practice love of oneself, you must be able to love one another. Every major faith has some teaching like this. The Golden Rule. Do unto others as you would do unto yourself. But Our Goddess has a more powerful and meaningful, and realistic message. Respect others as you would yourself. If you are unable to respect someone, then question what has led them to be so shallow that they cannot love the Goddess.”

 

Katie looks up, looking right at Asher Hayes. Hayes rolls his eyes.

 

Katie: “Because those who cannot love the Goddess, cannot love themselves and live in darkness. In horrible darkness. And the world is an unforgiving place where the light of the Goddess can only enter those who wish to improve their lives and those around them. But unfortunately, too many feel they can disrespect the joy that true happiness can give.”

 

Katie again looks up at Hayes as Hayes glares. We then hear a brief interlude from the organist.

 

Katie: “But there is opportunity here. Just by coming into this congregation, there is an opportunity to learn the error from past ways. From the disrespect people have for one’s love, one’s guidance and the accomplishment and greatness that is Our Goddess. And all that one has to do to see the light and begin to change their ways is-“

 

Asher Hayes then stands up.

 

Hayes: “Are we really serious here?”

 

Katie looks at Hayes and glares. Johnson just looks stunned.

 

Hayes: “I’m not here for redemption or any crap like that. I’m here because I’ll admit I was curious about how bent you really were and Christ almighty, you’re screwed in the head. You’re faking a church for what?”

 

Katie: “I am bettering people’s lives. Just with me in their lives, people are happier.”

 

Hayes then walks out of the bench and starts to approach the front.

 

Hayes: “No Katie…people want you to shut up and go away. And you know what, for you, you may be better off…this is nuts.”

 

Hayes then turns around before suddenly, Gigi runs up to him and nails him with some golden item. It hits the ground with a clang. We then notice it to be a brooch of some sort. Hayes falls to the ground and rolls over.

 

Katie: “Then we’ll just have to help you understand that you don’t disrespect the Goddess!”

 

TJ and Maddy head down as Asher stirs and with Gigi they grab Hayes and start to drag him to the front and over to the side. We then see a giant basin as Katie stands over it. Gigi and Maddy then take Hayes and drag him over to the basic. Gigi nails him again with a forearm, to keep him down a bit.

 

Katie: “Asher….May the Goddess be with you and may love actually enter your soul…”

 

Katie extends her arms and looks up as Gigi and Maddy then place Hayes over the basin and TJ stands over him and pushes his head into the basin. Katie smiles as she then looks down as Hayes struggles a bit, splashing water around before TJ pulls him out and throws him back. Asher Hayes rolls over and coughs as Katie turns and walks back to the back area of her stage. Gigi and Maddy then walk off as does TJ Johnson. Asher Hayes remains down, coughing as we cut away.

 

We cut to a shot of the crowd, live in Pittsburgh.

 

Winters: “Well, I think Asher Hayes got the message and hopefully he understands why you respect the Goddess!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t even know what to say. That was narcissistic to an amazing degree!”

 

We then open up backstage to see Kara Abheri standing in one of the hallways near a door and we see The F-Ups walking over to her.

 

Beard: “Now hot damn, that’s a sight.”

 

Kara turns.

 

Kara: “Wait…me…”

 

Beard: “Just saying….don’t know why you’re with that Shane stiff. Complete with his hipster hair…”

 

Juice just looks around.

 

Kara: “Well-“

 

Beard: “Come on. One night with me….not Juice. Eff him. But me…just sayin-“

 

The door opens and Shane Lawson walks out of the room. Kara turns to him.

 

Shane: “Hey Kara….uh, what’s this?”

 

Kara: “They’re trying to convince me to ditch you and go with him.”

 

Beard: “Whoa…whoa…where did that come from? Look, we got a match. Some scrubs need their asses kicked. Not cool, Kara. Not cool.”

 

Beard then smacks Juice and the two head off. Kara just chuckles as Lawson just shakes his head and we cut away.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

We open up backstage to see Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman walking backstage. The crowd boos loudly seeing them. Cain proudly holds the SCW World Championship as they then head over to the locker room door of the B&B Experience. The crowd boos more. Cain then knocks on the door. A few moments pass before the door opens. Blake opens the door and smirks.

 

Blake: “Oh this is rich.

 

Cain: “You may want to hear us out. Especially since I think I heard some anger in your voice last week that you’re not getting a title shot…but oh yeah, the two people you beat not only got the chance, but now are getting this little chance as D tries to get this off of me.”

 

Blake: “Well then talk.”

 

Cain: “You and Bree join us temporarily and the four of us make sure Selena Frost’s ribs aren’t even going to heal and Kelcey Wallace’s perfect return to the top is countered by a perfect return back to the bottom.”

 

Wiseman: “And in return, we’ll do whatever we can to make sure that Kayl, Cruze and Shawn Mason suffer the justice they deserve. You said they tried to piledrive you?”

 

Blake smirks a bit.

 

Blake: “I also said it was over between us and them.”

 

Cain: “Great. It’s over. We’re not saying you need to have a match. We’re just saying you make sure that over is also permanent. That would make sure it’s over if you ask me and I know a few things about that…”

 

Wiseman just looks at Cain.

 

Blake: “Let me think about it. Perhaps after this, we can have a meeting somewhere a bit less recorded…”

 

Blake nods to the camera. Wiseman just smirks.

 

Wiseman: “Probably for the best.”

 

Cain: “Be in touch.”

 

Cain winks as he then smiles and the two head off. Blake watches them leave as he closes the door. The crowd boos.

 

The F-Ups in action

 

The lights dim down, and green smoke begins to slowly drift up and around the entrance ramp, when the voice of Beard can be heard saying, “A lot of wrestlers talkin’ that shhhhh,” followed by Juice’s voice saying, “Not enough doin’ that shhhhh…”. Then, “White Crime” by Lil Dicky begins to blare through the PA system and out from the smoke emerges Beard and Juice, walking in slow motion.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall, with a fifteen minute time limit. First, on their way to the ring, they are Beard and the Juice, The F-Ups.”

 

Beard slowly poses, flexing muscles and pointing to his beard. Juice slowly jaws with the crowd, while slowly patting himself on the chest. The music continues to play, with Beard and Juice’s voices heard once more saying:

“White crime
White crime
Yeah, we ‘bout that
Do a lot of dirt, never doubt that
Lot of wrestle twerps, love to shout crap
Love to make their mouth flat
When it come to the Ups, no, we spout facts
You 'gon learn what we 'bout, bruh”

Slowly ascending to the top rope, the Fuck Ups pose once more, drinking in all of the jeers. They then quickly jump down off of the top rope and roll to the outside. We then cut to the opposite corner to see two men standing in the ring.

 

Phillips: “And their opponents, they are Gordon and John, the Dansbury Brothers!”

 

Juice and Beard look at their opponents.

 

Sharper: “The F-Ups getting in a bit of trouble. They tend to be a bit forward with the ladies, but this time, may have just annoyed the wrong person.”

 

Winters: “It was all in good fun. Kara Abheri even playing off them on Twitter.”

 

Sharper: “Lawson just shook his head. I’m sure he knows, but F-Ups walking off. They’ll all face off in tag action this Sunday as the SCW Tag Team Division is heating up.”

 

The bell sounds. The Juice enters as John walks over. The two circle the ring before grappling in the middle of the ring. They push back on one another and John Dansbury gets the advantage, pushing him back to the corner. Juice keeps yelling at him to get him off. John slowly backs up and Juice then goes for a shot. John blocks it and nails Juice with a shot. He then grabs him and hip tosses him out of the corner. Juice gets up and starts to get up and John kicks him in the ribs and then again. He whips him into the ropes. Juice bounces off and John goes for a clothesline. Juice ducks and stops. John turns around and Juice hits a roundhouse kick to the head. John hits the mat. Juice then turns and tags in Beard. Beard enters.

 

Sharper: “Beard entering after Juice had a rough start. These young local talent have an opportunity and they want to look good here.”

 

Winters: “The F-Ups don’t need to live up to their name here. Not with the tag division heating up.”

 

John Dansbury gets up and Beard hits a sloppy scoop slam. He then grabs him and drags him up and elbows him in the back of the head. He then turns and runs him into the corner. John turns and Beard grabs him and whips him across. He runs after him an dnails ihm with a running body splash. The crowd ohs as Beard backs up and John falls to the mat. He goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Gordon breaks it up. Beard looks up. He looks at Juice. Juice just shrugs before Beard grabs John as Gordon exits. He then knees him in the ribs before whipping him into the ropes. He bounces off and he goes for a back drop and falls back. He drives John down hard and Beard rolls over. John turns and Gordon manages to tags himself in. He enters the ring and Beard turns as Gordon nails him with a series of hard snap jabs to the jaw before kicking him in the ribs. He then runs into the ropes and Beard nails him with a single leg dropkick, extending too much. Gordon hits the mat. Beard gets up and turns.

 

Sharper: “Just got enough of that. Hard shot too.”

 

Winters: “Both Dansbury Brothers are going to have headaches in this one. They’re just taking some hard shots.”

 

Beard gets up and grabs Gordon and drags him over. He tags in Juice. Juice enters the ring and both kick Gordon in the ribs. They then hit a sloppy double mat slam. Gordon rolls over. Juice then runs across and nails John with a shot. He knocks him over. He then smiles and turns around before Gordon suddenly hits a hot shot. Juice falls back. Gordon turns and crawls towards his corner, but John is down. He then looks up and turns and Juice jumps up and hits a hurricanrana, but spiking Gordon into the mat. The crowd ohs. He then gets up and grabs him before hitting the Juiciest DDT. The crowd ohs. Juice goes for the pin. Beard enters and runs over and as John gets up, he catches him with a kick to the side of the head, knocking him to the floor.

 

Sharper: “Oh! What a DDT! What a kick!”

 

Winters: “Thanks for coming kids.”

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars and boos a bit.

 

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, Beard and the Juice, the F-Ups!”

 

Juice gets up as Beard walks over to him. He then pats him on the head before walking over and asking for the microphone. Their music stops as Phillips hands Beard the microphone. He turns back and looks around.

 

Beard: “Before we head to the back, we just wanted to clarify something…Kara….you’re cool. Shane….you’re cool….but damn it, Kara, Juice says you really should be hooking up with me!”

 

Beard drops the microphone as their music hits. Juice turns to Beard and looks at him, asking what he’s doing. Beard just exits the ring. Juice looks around as Beard chuckles to himself. Juice exits the ring and starts to follow after him as we cut away.

 

“Immortals” by Fall Out boy plays as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Simon Lyman up on the screen. The crowd cheers.

 

Sharper: “Next, this is going to be a hell of a moment. Simon Lyman, who has been recovering from his stroke, he will come out and speak about his match this Sunday against his friend, Donovan Kayl. His return to the ring.”

 

Winters: “But is Blake Mason going to ruin it?”

 

Sharper: “I hope not…I really hope not.”

 

The scene fades to black.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

Breakdown returns as we see Kara Abheri and Amy Chastaine by one of the monitors backstage, just talking.

 

Kara: “Look, it’s nothing crazy. They’re…harmless? I don’t know if that would be an insult?”

 

Amy: “They won’t be harmless this Sunday when they face you. They’re going to try to win…and they’re just….them.”

 

Kara: “Well how dare you use such language!”

 

Kara feigns shock. Amy just rolls her eyes.

 

Kara: “I’ll be fine.”

 

Just then, Shaun Cruze walks over to the two of them.

 

Shaun: “Ah…hi….can I talk to Amy quickly?”

 

Amy turns to Kara.

 

Amy: “It’s fine. Go.”

 

Amy turns to Cruze.

 

Amy: “What do you need?”

 

Shaun: “I figure I should come and talk to you face to face. Didn’t get a chance this week and before Lexi does something else stupid, I figured I should take this opportunity-“

 

Amy: “You did what you did. There’s nothing that you can say to justify it.”

 

Shaun: “Perhaps so, but I know one thing. If I wasn’t there…something worse would happen. I didn’t throw a punch. I just wanted to make sure Donovan and Shawn didn’t ruin their careers out of anger.”

 

Amy looks down and thinks about it for a moment.

 

Amy: “Still doesn’t justify it. Find an official. You had to help Kelcey one last time. You were complicit. Best intentions or not. And I can’t shake that Shaun.”

 

Amy turns and walks off. Shaun just watches Amy leave and shakes his head.

 

We cut to the ring to see Jason Phillips standing in the ring.

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome….Simply Sensational, Simon Lyman!”

 

The crowd roars as “Hero” by Skillet starts to play. On the Jumbotron, clips of Simon hitting high impact and high risk moves plays as the song continues, hyping the fans even further. Cailey Carter makes her way out on stage first dressed in a form fitting short black dress and black high heeled boots followed by Simon Lyman. The two look at each other then the crowd smiling ear-to-ear before striding to the ring confidently side-by-side.

 

Sharper: “And look at that smile. Only days away from when that man returns to the ring.”

While the fans roar, Simon and Cailey arrive at the ring. Simon walks up the steel steps and holds the ropes open for Cailey Carter as she enters. Simon enters the ring and walks over to Jason Phillips. Phillips hakes Simon’s hand and hands him the microphone. Lyman looks around and holds his arm up as the crowd cheers. Lyman turns around and Cailey says something to him before Lyman takes a moment and enjoys the visual. The music fades out as a loud “Lyman!” chant behinds to break out. Lyman just smiles as Cailey smiles too. Lyman just continues to look around.

 

Sharper: “And this crowd happy to see him. Greeting him here in Pittsburgh.”

 

Simon Lyman continues to listen to the chants which continue. Lyman then nods before bringing the microphone to his mouth.

 

Lyman: “Thank you for that…That’s why I’m standing right here. All of you.”

 

The crowd cheers again. Lyman looks around.

 

Lyman: “And while some other individuals may be looking to derail things a bit, this Sunday….it’s a big night for me. It’s the night I return to this ring in in-ring competition and face my best friend in the entire business, Donovan Kayl!”

 

The crowd cheers. Lyman smiles and looks around.

 

Lyman: “I don’t need to go over what I’ve been through when I ended up in the hospital, having suffered a stroke. It’s been a long road back, but it will all be worth it this Sunday. And I know SCW is taking it easy, but trust me when I say, if after I face Donovan, if Blake wants a piece of me, I will give it to him and with whatever stipulation he wants!”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Lyman: “I owe you a receipt for earlier this year and I want to do it in this ring.”

 

The crowd cheers some more as Lyman points down at the ring.

 

“When Money Comes, When Money Comes”

 

The crowd boos as “G.O.A.T.” by CFO$ featuring Will Roush plays. A few moments pass before Blake Mason bursts through the curtain, a microphone in his hand. Bree Lancaster is with him. Blake heads down to the ring as Simon Lyman tells Cailey to back up. Bree Lancaster follows Blake down. They head to the ring. Blake hops onto the apron. Lyman turns and holds the ropes open for Cailey who exits the ring. Lyman turns and Cailey tells him to exit the ring. Blake enters the ring with Bree quickly after.

 

Blake: “You want to give me what I want. Then let’s do it now, because frankly, if you’re ready to face Kayl. You’re cleared. Let’s can the crap and I can use you to give a clear message to Donovan Kayl!”

 

The crowd boos. Lyman just watches him and then Bree.

 

Blake: “Don’t worry Simon. You made it clear. You want to be piledriven and I’m happy to do it. So I can put you out of your misery…”

 

Blake looks at Simon.

 

Simon: “I’m not going to back down Blake. I’m not afraid of you.”

 

Blake: “Mistake.”

 

Blake then kicks Simon. The crowd boos loudly as Blake throws the microphone down and places Simon’s head between his legs. The crowd continues to make noise.

 

Sharper: “No! No!”

 

Winters gets up at ringside and takes off his headset before we see Donovan Kayl and Shawn Mason both run from the floor, running around the stage and heading down to the ring. Bree taps Blake’s shoulder. Blake then looks back before pushing Lyman away. Blake turns and exits the ring. Kayl and Shawn both slide into the ring. Kayl immediately goes to his friend Lyman as Cailey re-enters the ring. Shawn turns and watches Blake. Blake just looks at him as Bree grabs his arm and starts to pull him away.

 

Sharper: “Kayl! Shawn Mason! Both running to the ring and stopping Blake from going any further!”

 

Winters: “Bree even pulling Blake away now.”

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe that man! I don’t believe how sadistic he is!”

 

Blake looks in the ring as Bree keeps pulling him away and over to the entrance way. Shawn Mason keeps watching him as “Hero” by Skillet starts to play. Simon starts to get up as he looks at Blake. Kayl watches him too. Shawn Mason’s eyes remain locked on Blake Mason as well as Bree then gets Blake Mason to break away his gaze from the ring and they head to the back. The crowd continues to boo Blake Mason as we cut away.

Breakdown opens up backstage to see Tyler Tucker and Amy Chastaine backstage in one of the hallways.

 

Tucker: “L-look, you don’t have to say anything.”

 

Amy: “But I do. After everything else, last week, with all of the extra involvement, I’m not going to accept that. You deserve better.”

 

Tucker: “Just seems to be the way it goes for us…”

 

Amy: “Tyler…you beat me to start off this year. I got a reality check. You’re not the young kid who is a bit spazzy and nervous. You’re a hell of a wrestler. You showed that last week. You showed that when we faced and this Sunday, I know I’m in for a big fight. You need to remember what you’re capable of.”

 

Tucker: “Yeah…I just hope Regan, or Mikaela or whoever else stays away this Sunday.”

 

Amy: “Given how Stacy Kissinger is acting, if Regan’s walking I’d be stunned.”

 

Tucker: “We may find out earlier.”

 

Amy: “Oh? Don’t tell me Stacy is going-”

 

Tucker: “Wait…you didn’t hear? There’s a rumour going around that we’re facing Regan and…well…”

 

Amy: “Please tell me you’re joking.”

 

Tucker: “Y-you…I’ve heard nothing official though, but….”

 

Amy: “I’m going to check into this. I’ll go talk to D….But he’s not here.”

 

Tucker: “Look…if it is the case, good luck. But-“

 

Amy: “If it’s true, I hope whoever of Adrenaline Rush is against me, we wrestle and show what we do. With Regan…well….”

 

Tucker: “Y-yeah.”

 

Amy then shakes her head and walks off.

 

Sharper: “Wait, Adrenaline Rush against Regan Street and Amy Chastaine?”

 

Winters: “Regan offered a tag team with Amy. I guess someone heard her and liked the idea!”

 

Sharper: “Well it’s a rumour right now. Amy’s going to look into it and we are too. If true, that’s a huge match later tonight here on Breakdown.”

 

Jake Starr vs. Brett Sinclaire

SCW Television Championship

 

Sharper: “And now for something completely different folks.”

Winters: “Ha-Ha, how very Monty Python of you Adam.”

The SCW fans erupt with cheers as the bell sounds, the man in the ring none other than Jason Phillips with trusty microphone in hand.

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the SCW TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP!!!”

The roar from the SCW fans is deafening as the focus shifts from the ring to the stage area as the arena goes dark, with just the sounds of the crowds and the flashes of the cameras. With the first chord of "Sandstorm" by Darude, two green spotlights shoot to the stage. As the song hits the post, fireworks erupt from the stage, and from behind the curtain emerges Jake Starr. Upon first stepping onto the stage, Starr pauses to immerse himself in the electricity of the fans.

Phillips: “Introducing the Challenger… He hails from Des Moines, IA and weighed in tonight at twon-hundred and forty-five pounds…. He is The Social Misfit, JAKE STAAAARRRRRR!!”

The fans roar while he smirks as he looks around the arena. He walks down towards the ring, slapping the occasional outstretched hand of the fans around the ring. He quickly ascends the steps and enters the ring. Upon entering the ring he walks to the opposite corner and steps up to the middle turnbuckle. He once again cocks a smirk. The crowd reacts to his presence with a majority of cheers, and scattered boos. He points towards the crowd, and shows his appreciation by tapping his chest with the fist he had extended. He proceeds to repeat that gesture on the remaining turnbuckles, and finally settles in the ring.

Sharper: “Say what you will about Jake Starr he is certainly one hell of a polarizing individual. Love him or hate him, you cannot help but respect all he has achieved in SCW.”

Winters: “You can’t, and tonight he gets to finally gain the championship he’s yet to hold here in SCW barring the women’s, and let’s be honest if he could. He’d go for that belt as well.”

Phillips: “And his oopponent….”

“Kingdom” by Downstait hits the speakers as all the lights in the arena go out, though a number of fans will light up their phones to try and cut through the darkness. As the lyrics begin, the Tron suddenly comes to life, playing past clips of Brett Sinclaire in action. As the song reaches the line “Waiting for me to start the show” a lone spotlight suddenly shines down on the center of the stage, revealing a figure with his back turned as he stares up at the Tron, the spotlight reflecting off the numerous sequins on his robe, especially the “Evolution Incarnate” script on the back.

Phillips: “Hailing from Manhattan, New York.. He weighs in at two-hundred and thirty pounds. He is your SCW TELEVISION CHAMPION, EVOLUTION INCARNATE, BRETT SINCLAIRE!!!”

As the song hits the chorus, the figure suddenly spins around and throws his arms up, palms to the sky as gold pyro rains down behind him and all the lights slowly come back on, albeit dimmed quite a bit. Brett Sinclaire looks out at the fans with a smile, accepting the split reaction he’s being given as he slowly makes his way down to the ring, the spotlight following him. When he reaches ringside he hops up onto the apron and steps between the ropes before he makes his way to the center of the ring where he repeats his pose from up on the stage, closing his eyes to take everything in as the lights all return to normal now. Brett backs into his corner and removes his robe before warming up for the match ahead, a focused look we’ve never seen before from him on his face.

Sharper: “Brett had a successful title defence last week against Shawn Lawson and before that against Kara Abheri.”

Winters: “But he has a different animal before him tonight, a hungry Jake Starr and that is dangerous no matter WHO you are.”

The official for this championship match takes the TV title from Brett Sinclaire and walks over to Jake Starr who looks down at the shiny piece of gold and smirks. The ref then walks to the middle of the ring and raises it to a pop from the crowd before handing it off to Jason Phillips who quickly exits the ring. Both men slowly walk to the center of the ring and meet in the middle, the official telling them both he wants a clean match. Both men nod before backing up to their respective corners and with that the bell sounds.

Sharper: “The fans in attendance and everyone watching at home are certainly in for what should be a hotly contested championship match.”

Both men confidently walk out of their respective corners back to the middle of the ring, the two of them jaw jacking to the other. Jake points towards the direct where the title resides by the ring bell, while Brett laughs and quickly goes for a grapple and applying a side headlock. Jake slaps the back and pushes Brett to the ropes and attempts to move hi off but the champion has it locked on tightly. Jake does the same again with a different set of ropes but once more Brett refuses to let go, only then does Starr lift up Sinclaire and drop him with an atomic drop. Sinclaire releases the hold and quickly moves away from Jake holding his tail bone obviously having felt that.

Winters: “That tailbone is quite a sore spot, I think that’s a universal deduction not just thanks to Brett there.”

Some of the crowd can be heard laughing as Jake shrugs his shoulders. Brett laughs a little and the two begin to circle each other and waste no time locking horns in the middle of the ring. Jake this time wins the battle of wits with a knee to the gut of the champion. He drags Sinclaire to the ropes and pushes him back and unloads with a loud knife edge chop to his chest. The SCW fans “WOOOO!” in typical style. The Champion attempts to step out of harms way, but Jake pushes him back again and delivers another Chop. Jake looks for another, but Brett pushes Starr away and walks away holding his chest.

Sharper: “Stiff chops from the challenger, we all know when Jake wants he can make you feel a lot of pain.”

Winters: “The Champion Brett Sinclaire is certainly feeling it tonight.”

Jake doesn’t let up and approaches the champion near the corner, he attempts to grab him but Sinclaire reverses and sends Jake into the corner and begins to unload a rapid fire of chops! The crowd go wild and begin to count along with each chop.

1… WOOOO

2…. WOOOOO

3… WOOOO

4…. WOOOO

5…. WOOOOO!

6…. WOOOO!!

Sinclaire steps back from Jake whose chest is being to show welts from the chops, he staggers out and gets caught with a perfect dropkick to the face. Only then does Sinclaire cover the challenger

1… NO! Kickout by Starr!

Sharper: “The crowd fully behind Brett Sinclaire tonight, both men dare I say.”

Winters: “Just listen to em, they were enjoying that chop fest a moment ago.”

Brett rolls to his feet quickly and turns to go back to work on Jake, but Starr rolls out of the ring to break the momentum from the champion. He rubs his chest while looking out at the SCW fans who are a mixture of cheers for him and boos. Jake happily accepts both before turning around and quickly dives out of the way of an incoming Brett Sinclaire who went for a suicide dive. The TV champion connects with the security barrier instead and lays there on the floor while Jake stands over him now pointing to his temple.

Winters: “There you have Jakes ring awareness if there ever was any on display. He knew Sinclaire was going to do something, that’s experience right there.”

Sinclaire holds his head but theres no rest for the weary in his case when Jake pulls him to his feet and rolls him back into the ring but not without connecting with a stiff right hand for good measures. Jake rolls into the ring afterwards and quickly covers the TV Champion.

1… Kickout by Sinclaire!

Jake wastes little time and mounts Brett and then begins to throw some right hands before stepping away and leaning against the ropes confidently. He looks out to the fans and smirks before focusing his attention back on the TV Champion dragging him to his feet and sending him into the corner with an Irish whip. Jake then runs across and leaps into the air and connects with a splash into the corner before rolling Sinclaire out and to the canvas. Only then does Starr hop onto the second rope and leap off with a diving elbow onto the champion before covering again.

1…

2… Kick out by Sinclaire!

The crowd oohs a mixture of disappointment and jubilation.

Sharper: “Close fall, Jake keeping up with these attacks on the champion. Brett needs to put a stop to this though if he wants to keep that TV championship.”

Jake continues getting to his feet first as Sinclaire rolls away holding his chest, he begins to get to his feet and staggers to an upright position. Jake seeing this goes for a running clothesline which Sinclaire ducks under. Spinning around Jake turns to face Brett but gets caught with a jumping arm breaker for his trouble! The fans pop upon the sight of that along with Brett Sinclaire getting back to his feet and continuing his attack with a few stomps to the shoulder of Jake Starr.

Winters: “Sounds like he heard you, business may well pick up for the champion.”

Brett Drops a knee to the shoulder of Jake now and then pulls him up to his feet and connects with another thunderous chop to the chest which garners another “WOOOO” from the SCW fans. Following up with an Irish whip into the corner Brett runs at Starr and connects with a step-up knee to the jaw! After pulling Jake out of the corner, Sinclaire scoops him up and ties him up into the corner with a tree of woe, the SCW fans buzzing more and more knowing full well what is about to happen.

Sharper: “Brett looking to go for a Walk through Central Park it looks like, and these fans wish to join him on that journey.”

Winters: “The one person who doesn’t is stuck in that tree of woe!”

Jake looking a little worse for wear now tries to loosen his feet from the corner, but he gets a knee to the gut and a stomp to the face. Sinclaire quickly exits to the apron and begins to scale the corner. He then slaps the knee of Jake forcing him to sit up and gets caught with a double stomp from the TV Champion! The SCW fans pop as both men collapse onto the canvas. Sinclaire rolling over and pulling Jake away from the ropes before covering.

Sharper: “Could this be it!?”

1..

2…

3? NO! KICK OUT BY STARR!!

The last moment possible Jake kicked out, he bought every second there. Sinclaire sits up holding his head while Jake rolls away holding his chest further. A chant of “Let’s go Sinclaire, Lets Go Starr” begins to erupt around the arena. The TV Champion is starting to feel the electricity from the SCW fans, he rolls to his feet as does Jake Starr. The two looking at each other sensing something has to give between the two. Brett confidently motions for Jake to come at him which he obliges, the two tying up with another grapple. A knee from Jake sends Sinclaire doubling over and a clubbing blow to the back not one, but twice puts the champion to a knee.

Sharper: “You as and you shall receive.”

Winters: “Goading Jake to come at you isn’t the wisest of moves.”

Jake grabs the arm and sends Sinclaire to the far corner, however he stops and changes his mind sending Sinclaire into the opposite corner, which inadvertently causes the TV Champion to crash into the official!

Sharper: “Oh dear god, the ref is down! H was in the way!”

Winters: “Terrible placement by the official, where di SCW find him?!”

Sinclaire staggers out and gets a kick to the stomach for his troubles which double him over, and Jake pushes his head down between his legs before moving away from the official. It looks like Jake is about to hit his flipping piledriver but Sinclaire drops to a knee before standing up and lifting Jake up and over with aback body drop! The SCW fans pop at that sight, both men now down along with the official and that is when the boo’s begin to reign out from the SCW fans…

Sharper: “What’s going on, oh god what is SHE doing out here?!”

Winters: “Bree Lancaster, she’s out here to obviously check to see if the ref is alright.”

Sharper: “…”

The cameras do show Bree walking down to the ring with purpose while the ref is down, Jake holds his back and Brett Sinclaire holds his head after the clash with the official. The fans are giving a lot of verbal abuse to Bree but she doesn’t care, she ignores them while walking around the ring and making sure that Brett see’s her. When he does he begins to get up and walks over to the ropes open armed questioning why she is there.

Winters: “That’s no way to talk to a classy lady.”

Sharper: “You’re beginning to sound like Knots, she is the furthest thing from Classy. She has NO business out here.”

Winters: “Clearly she disagrees.”

Jake is rolling over to his stomach no and starts to get up, Sinclaire leans through the ropes and is telling here in not so many words to leave. She doesn’t though not yet because she quickly sprays something into the face of the TV champion, a healthy dose of something which causes his to wave his arms frantically as he holds his face and covers it with his hands. The SCW fans boo even louder now as Brett Sinclaire drops to his knees and coughs up a storm now while Bree begins to walk off without even a second thought of her actioins.

Sharper: “Someone check on him, someone needs to stop this match right now!”

Winters: “tell that to Starr…”

Jake hasn’t realized whats happened is back on his feet and quickly grabs Brett Sinclaire and pulls him to his feet before pushing his head down and quickly connecting with the flipping piledriver into the canvas. The impact from the move is enough to nudge the official to stir as Jake rolls to his feet and quickly exits the ring to the apron.

Sharper: “You got to be kidding me, this isn’t how it should end. Bree Lancaster ruined this match. Jake don’t do it.”

Jake is climbing the outside and stops to look out at the SCW fans who are booing, but he shrugs his shoulders and stands on the top before leaping off the top rope and hitting the shooting five star frog splash he calls the falling starr. A mixture of cheers and boo’s begin to reign down from the fans now as Jake covers Brett Sinclaire, the referee finding enough in him to make a count.

1…

2…

3!!!

The arena erupts into a mixed chorus as Jake falls off Brett Sinclaire, he rolls to his feet next as Sandstorm by Darude hits over the P.A system. Jake wastes little time and rolls out of the ring and grabs the TV Championship before lifting it aloft.

Sharper: “That wasn’t how things were meant to go down tonight, Brett Sinclaire losing because of whatever Bree Lancaster sprayed into his face.”

Winters: “As Champion you need eyes in the back of your head, he needed to focus on the prize and Bree that was outside the ring.”

Inside the ring we see some members of staff checking on both the official and Brett Sinclaire as the camera switches to Jake Starr who backs up the ramp looking down at the TV title in his hand and a huge smile on his face.

The scene then cuts to inside the Consol Energy Arena in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where pyro ignites either side of the stage and makes its way towards the center. The crowd explodes with electricity with the cameras catching glimpses of all in attendance tonight. Various signs are on full display for their favorite superstars.  The camera continues to pan the crowd before we cut to ringside and the SCW announce table to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at ringside.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown, live in Pittsburgh. Jonathan Knots now joining me, Adam Sharper, here at ringside and Jon, we just saw a new TV Champion crowned.”

 

Knots: “And Bree Lancaster made sure it was a bit classy. It’s now with Jake Starr, which is a horrible turn of events, but given than we didn’t hear the end of things from Sinclaire before. I’m all for it!”

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, we expect to hear from Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman, and potentially Selena Frost and Kelcey Wallace later tonight. Blake Mason approached by Cain and Wiseman.”

 

Knots: “Maybe it’s not over yet!”

 

Sharper: “I just hope Kelcey and Selena are looking over their shoulder and are ready for whatever Cain and Wiseman could have in mind.”

 

The opening to "Out of the Black" hits the PA system, drawing boos from the audience. A few moments pass before Dante McCaffery saunters out from the back. The crowd boos a bit louder. Dante looks around the arena, his eyes scanning across. He then slowly glances back before we see Raven Tyler, Alex Drake’s lookalike of Ravyn Taylor, walk out from the back. She looks around, a bit sheepishly. Dante turns to her and says something to her. She just nods before Dante starts to walk down to the ring. Raven follows him a stride behind.

 

Sharper: “We figured this may be the case when Dante met with Alex Drake earlier, but it’s clear. Raven Tyler is now with Dante!”

 

Knots: “Left with him last week. Now here with him. He said he made her a better offer!”

 

Dante walks over to the ring and looks at Raven. Raven then pulls herself up onto the apron and enters into the ring. Dante McCaffery then walks up the steel steps and walks into the ring. He steps forward and looks at Raven and then motions to her. Raven just walks over and takes a deep breath before dropping down to the corner and seating in it. Dante laughs a bit as he walks over to the ropes and asks for a microphone. Phillips hands him the microphone. Dante takes it and walks back over to the middle of the ring. He then looks at Raven. He then smiles again.

 

Dante: “You really have it down to a tee and you look pretty close to the real thing. Alex did some good finding you.”

 

Dante then motions to her to get up. The crowd boos a bit.

 

Dante: “Come over here…Alex found you as I said. You’re now here as Raven Tyler, his own lookalike. Well, formerly, but we’ll get to that in a moment. So let’s just get a bit of your backstory. You’re a model?”

 

Raven shakes her head no.

 

Dante: “An actress.”

 

Raven nods.

 

Dante: “Hoping to make it big, aren’t you.”

 

Raven nods again.

 

Dante: “Well I guarantee more people will pay attention to you standing here with me than Drake. But this is a temporary partnership you being out here because well, as I said, I can offer you something that Drake couldn’t even come close to.”

 

Raven doesn’t say anything.

 

Dante: “Or something that Ravyn Taylor couldn’t compete with. And that’s really why you’re with me because frankly, that alone got my attention. And fortunately, you are a logical girl. You understand that I have better connections, I have the desire and I have a much lower bar for our agreement than whatever Ravyn Taylor offered you. I mean, the footage from a couple of weeks ago, borderline threatening you, and putting the fear of God into you. And probably because you cost her the Television Championship and that, I may pin on Drake, but you still did it and that level of commitment I need. The level of commitment you have to being…Raven Tyler….that’s helpful.”

 

Dante pauses as the crowd boos.

 

Dante: “But the next question is one we haven’t discussed yet and that is what you were supposed to do for Ravyn. What was it that she had convinced would be in your best interest to do. When the time came? Well, Ravyn, you may want to pay attention, but Raven, I’m adding another term to our agreement, but I will sweeten it myself. See, all you have to do is be honest. Be yourself. They say that in job interviews all the time…What pathetic plan did Ravyn Taylor have…tell me and I’ll put you in touch with a high-level talent agent this Sunday.”

 

Raven just smiles a bit.

 

Dante: “Understand?”

 

Dante then holds the microphone in front of Raven Tyler.

 

Raven: “Yes…”

 

Dante: “Go on.”

 

Raven goes to speak before “Bad Girl” starts to play. The crowd roars as a few moments pass. Ravyn Taylor then walks out from the back. She looks down at the ring. Dante just smirks.

 

Dante: “Oh good an audience.”

 

Dante looks up at the entrance way. Ravyn steps forward and looks at the ring. She has a microphone in her hand.

 

Ravyn: “Dante…do you really believe I would’ve told her anything?”

 

Dante smirks as he turns to Ravyn.

 

Dante: “I believe that you would’ve wanted me to believe that.”

 

Ravyn looks down and chuckles to herself.

 

Dante: “Trust me, Ravyn…I’ve been watching you for longer than you’ve realized and I know how you operate. I also know that you still have a bad habit of underestimating me-“

 

Ravyn: “And I know that some of the promises you’re making are as hollow as your soul. But that’s fine. If Raven is so simple as to believe it, then you know what, she deserves you and I hope her career takes off. Another thing you should recall about me is that I always have other plans.”

 

Dante: “Is that why you’ve kept your distance for weeks? Or is it that I’ve managed to be not only a step ahead, but merely better. You’ve atrophied and it’s laughable Ravyn and now, we’ll even add some additional evidence, if you ask me.”

 

Dante turns to Raven.

 

Dante: “So Raven Tyler….please…detail whatever ploy you and her were going to sick on me.”

 

Raven looks at Ravyn. Ravyn just glares at her.

 

Raven: “We were going to lull you into an ambush…using my similar look to catch you off guard. She swore I wouldn’t get hurt…but, but….”

 

Ravyn just looks down, shaking her head. Dante just turns and smirks.

 

Dante: “That was the grand plan. The sad thing is that I have no reason to doubt her as I’m giving her her future and amazing what people do when they have everything they want in front of them immediately. They do anything for it. Just like when someone is desperate, they will do anything to get the win. Too bad that’s as pathetic as can be.”

 

Ravyn just looks at the ring.

 

Dante: “Ravyn is speechless. This is a noteworthy occasion.”

 

Ravyn: “I have more tricks up my sleeve.”

 

Dante: “Too bad tricks are going to be too late. Ravyn…checkmate is on the horizon. And I now hold your most valuable piece….Ms. Tyler…please join me for dinner. My treat. And I’ll set up the meeting for this Sunday right in front of your eyes.”

 

“Out of the Black” starts to play. Ravyn just looks at Dante as Dante walks over to the ropes and holds them open for Raven. Raven steps through, smiling a bit. Dante drops down to the floor. Raven then looks at Ravyn Taylor as Dante extends his arm and starts to lead her to the floor alongside the rampway.

 

Sharper: “Dante McCaffery just showing the power he can have through his negotiations. We’ve see him use violence. We’ve seen him humiliate and now he’s just on top of the world.”

 

Knots: “He’s played Ravyn! No! He’s outplayed her. Ravyn is at a loss for words! I love this! Christy Matthews months ago said she had lost her edge and now Dante is showing that that’s the case!”

 

Sharper: “Well all that matters is what happens in the ring this Sunday. Ravyn Taylor and Dante McCaffery will battle this Sunday at Broken Beliefs!”

 

Knots: “And I believe Ravyn Taylor may be broken! That Raven Tyler is going to get her big break!”

 

Dante leads Raven along the floor around the stage. Ravyn watches him leave as the crowd boos and we cut away.

 

Backstage we see Amy Chastaine with Christina Matsui backstage as Christina Matsui is shaking her head.

 

Christina: “I wish I could counter it, but it came from the Board.”

 

Amy: “From the board? Someone on the board is clearing a match that is a horrible idea. She wants to destroy me not team with me.”

 

Christina sighs.

 

Christina: “I was told to book it. I’m just a representative. I have to follow their lead when the primary matchmaker is off.”

 

Amy: “Convenient, then, right?”

 

Christina: “Sorry. But it’s true, Regan Street and you are booked to face Adrenaline Rush later tonight.”

 

Sharper: “Oh my God.”

 

Amy looks down as the crowd roars.

 

Christina: “Mr. D’s back on Sunday. I’ll see if something can be figured out. But…”

 

Chastiane: “What?”

 

Christina: “The Board also wants me to get something from you tonight. The Adrenaline Championship match. It will take place on the next edition of Breakdown. You need to pick your stipulation.”

 

Chastaine: “So before I know who I’d be challenging. Because trust me, Christy deserves a lot worse than I could ever do to Kennedy.”

 

Christina: “I’m sorry, but decisions need to be made.”

 

Chastaine just nods.

 

Chastaine: “I’ll have my decision later. Unless Regan knocks me unconscious.”

 

Chastaine storms off as Christina Matsui watches her leave.

 

“Immortals” starts to play. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen before we see a still of AJ Helms vs. Angelica Jones.

 

Sharper: “A big match confirmed there, but next, another big match. Angelica Jones was able to chase off Lexi von Aaron earlier. She vowed to get involved. Angelica faces AJ Helms next, here on Breakdown!”

 

The scene fades to black.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

DURING THE COMMERCIAL BREAK:

We see a still of Dante McCaffery walking through the back entrance of the building with Raven Tyler.

 

Sharper: “As we have seen in previous weeks, Dante McCaffery does his business and leaves.”

 

Knots: “Going out to dinner with a young actress! To set up her future!”

 

The scene starts to move as we see Dante lead Raven through the doors. They walk out to a car waiting for them. Dante opens up the back seat door and holds it for Raven who enters inside. He turns and opens the passenger door. We then see Ms. Budde inside again as the driver. Dante closes the door and the car drives off.

 

Knots: “Maybe with two young ladies!”

 

The scene continues to unfold for a moment before the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

 

We cut backstage to see Ravyn Taylor on the phone. She can be seen in one area of the backstage area, down the hallway, the camera catching her from a distance.

 

Ravyn: “Well you keep recovering…Things are going to work out just fine here.”

 

Ravyn smiles a bit.

 

Ravyn: “He can doubt me all he wants. I’ll always have a back up plan and we’ll see if I’ve lost my edge.”

 

Ravyn laughs a bit.

 

Ravyn: “I will be home shortly after. Rest up. You need it and we will then find out who did that to you.”

 

Ravyn hangs up the phone and walks off as we cut to the ring.

 

A.J. Helms vs. Angelica Jones

 

We cut to the ringside area where the fans cheer and we see Jason Phillips in the ring with a microphone in hand.

Phillips: “The following match is scheduled for one fall…”

The fans chant “ONE FALL” as well. The lights then dim to a crimson red color throughout the arena. A high pitched female voice can be heard over the PA speakers…

"I Lost My Miiiiiiind..."

The image of a red dragon appears on the Tron. The dragon is engulfed in flames as it is replaced by a phoenix. Then that too goes up in flames as it is replaced by an image of Angelica Jones. The Global-Tron shows images of Angelica Jones delivering the Hot Shot to Steve Pinex, Meagan Collins, Glory Braddock, Angela Jameson and the Divine Impact to Dazz, Daystalker, and Cuchulain. Angelica then steps out onto the stage. She is dressed in all black, from head to toe, and that includes a black trenchcoat. Her long hair hangs down to shoulder length. She stares menacingly, sadistically down at the ring, pausing before finally beginning to make the long walk to the ring.

Phillips: “Introducing first; from Boston Massachusetts, weighing one hundred and fifteen pounds, she is one half of the SCW World Tag Team Champions… ANGELICA JONES!!!”

Once at ringside she takes a sharp turn to the right and the ascends the steel steps, making her way up to the ring apron. She strolls slowly to the center before turning towards the audience. She looks out intensely at the crowd before posing with both arms raised high into the air. Angelica steps into the ring and then steps over to the opposite side of the ring where she poses on the second rope. She then jumps off and heads to the center where the music dies down and the lights come back up. She stands, waiting for the match to begin.

Sharper: “And here we go with a little preview for this Sunday. One half of the tag team champions up against one half of the former champions, and both want to leave this Sunday with the gold.”

Knots: “But only one of them can, but if you ask me the more interesting story here is how involved Lexi will be in the whole thing. You can get the Sisterhood aren’t looking forward to that.”

Sharper: “AJ making his feelings on it clear as well. We’ll see if she becomes a factor in this one.”

The arena lights cut as the opening riff of "Life @ 11" by A Day To Remember hits the speaker system. As the drums kick in, two small pyros go off on either side of the ramp and the lights burst back into life to show AJ Helms walk out onto the stage, making his way to the middle of the ramp as Shaun Cruze follows him out. Looking around a little at the fans, Aaron smirks before jumping up and hitting a Self High Five, causing one more pyro to explode on either side of the stage and the crowd pop at the cheap reference as he turns and fist bumps with Cruze before suddenly bolting down to the ring, leaving Cruze to stroll down after him at his own pace.

Phillips: "And her opponent; accompanied by his tag partner Shaun Cruze, he weighed in earlier this evening at two hundred three pounds and is from from Asbury Park New Jersey by way of The Hollywood Hills California; please give it up for Aj... HELMS!!!"

AJ jumps up and tucks his legs underneath him as he slides under the bottom rope legs first before quickly jumping to his feet and running to the corner, where he hops up onto the second rope and throws one fist into the air, the crowd cheering a little again as he grins at them. Scarlett climbs the steps and walks along the apron as Cruze simply walks around to the other side of the ring and AJ hops down and walks over to his corner where Scarlett is now waiting and he says something to her before giving her another quick kiss. Scarlett drops down to the outside and AJ shares a quick word with Cruze through the ropes before finally settling back in the corner, waiting for the match to begin.

Sharper: “And Shaun Cruze out here with his partner, but no Lexi. That’s got to be a good thing, right?”

Knots: “That means nothing. Just because she didn’t come out here with him doesn’t mean she’s not going to get involved. I don’t even think the stakes matter to her.”

Sharper: “We’ll find out. Right now though it looks like we’re ready to start this one.”

Angelica and Helms face each other as the referee calls for the bell to get the match underway. Both look confident as they step forward and lock up with AJ quickly gaining the upper hand and going for a side headlock on Angelica who slips out of it, grabbing AJ’s arm and slipping him into a hammerlock. AJ struggles for a moment as Angelica cranks on the hold. AJ then counters, spinning out and flipping over before reversing the pressure on the arm and dropping Angelica to her knees. Cruze slams on the mat, congratulating his younger partner, as the fans cheer for both competitors.

Sharper: “Angelica very experienced, as we well know, but AJ getting the upper hand regardless.”

Knots: “Experience doesn’t count for anything unless you’re willing to use it, and sometimes I think Angelica Jones has forgotten how to use it.”

Sharper: “You’re referring to her change in attitude last year, I assume? Why aren’t I surprised you’d have a problem with that.”

Knots: “Do you think she’d have let a rookie counter her so easily before?”

Angelica forces her way back up to her feet, in spite of the pain, and twists out of the hold, grabbing AJ in a side headlock this time. She holds on for a moment before AJ lifts her off her feet and pushes her to the ropes. As she rebounds AJ leaps up and knocks her down with a dropkick. The fans cheer. Angelica rolls up quickly though, grabbing AJ as he gets back up and rolling him up in a pin.

1…

2…

AJ counters, rolling off his shoulders but grabbing Angelica by the arm again. Rather than going for another arm based submission move AJ uses the arm and rolls Angelica over and then twists her up, rolling her into a pinning predicament.

1…

2…

Angelica flips out of it, countering and getting AJ’s shoulders to the mat instead.

1…

2…

Sharper: “NO! AJ rolling out. Near fall after near fall for these two, a technical showcase on display here from both.”

Knots: “Cruze looks relieved that his partner kicked out. Do you think he’s having doubts?”

Sharper: “I don’t think he doubts AJ at all. Why are you trying to cause trouble, Jonathan?”

Both competitors get back to their feet. AJ is up first and grabs Angelica. He backs her toward the ropes before whipping her across the ring and then charging at her as she rebounds, knocking her down with a forearm strike. Angelica rolls over and starts to get up and AJ runs the ropes again, rebounding and knocking her down with a second forearm strike. Angelica rolls over and gets back to her feet again, using the ropes to help pull her up. AJ charges at her and clotheslines her over the top rope. Angelica holds on though, landing on the apron as AJ turns around.

Sharper: “AJ in control, picking up the pace and knocking Angelica down and to the outside… no, Angelica holding on.”

Knots: “And AJ turned his back. He doesn’t see that. Rookie mistake by the younger Helms!”

Angelica rushes to the ring post and climbs up the turnbuckles to the top. Cruze yells at AJ and AJ turns around to see what he’s pointing at as Angelica comes off the top and knocks AJ down with a rolling wheel kick off the top. AJ hits the mat and rolls to the apron. Angelica gets back to her feet. AJ pulls himself up and Angelica runs over, landing a running knee to AJ as he’s leant between the ropes. AJ staggers on the apron. Angelica then grabs him and sets up for a suplex back into the ring but AJ holds on. He then tries lifting her to the outside for a suplex but Angelica blocks it.

Sharper: “Oh wow, I was about to say Angelica Jones taking control here but… well, her night could end right here if AJ can hit this.”

Knots: “Suplex from the ring to the outside, that’ll definitely do the job!”

Sharper: “But Angelica blocking it. Can AJ get her up?”

AJ tries the suplex attempt again but again Angelica blocks it. She nails him in the face with a shot and he staggers on the apron. She nails him a second time and again he staggers. She goes for a third but AJ blocks it and delivers a forearm shot which knocks Angelica back. When she tries to grab him again he ducks down and drives his shoulder between the ropes, doubling her over and then leaps over the top rope and pulls Angelica down with a sunset flip.

1…

2…

Angelica counters, flipping her weight and grabbing AJ’s legs.

1…

2…

Sharper: “NO!!! AJ kicking out, and that was too close!”

Knots: “Cruze was almost on the apron then. Do you think he thought it was over that time?”

AJ rolls over. Angelica gets back to her feet and catches him with a knee as he attempts to get up. She grabs him by the head and slams him down to the mat. AJ rolls over, holding his face. Angelica sees this and runs to the ropes, springing off the middle rope and landing the Divine Impact on AJ. The fans cheer. Angelica rolls off for a moment holding her ribs before making the cover.

1…

2…

Sharper: “NO! AJ kicking out again, and Angelica looks at the referee this time to make sure.”

Knots: “She’s determined tonight, that’s for sure. AJ holding his face as he rolls over again. Angelica making sure that was only two.”

Sharper: “She hit it full on. AJ showing his resilience by kicking out.”

Angelica grabs AJ as he begins to get back up. She tries to pull him into position and hook his arms to finish the match but AJ resists, holding one arm down and then flipping her up and over. Angelica, impressively, lands on her feet but AJ spins around and nails her with a clothesline which knocks her down. She begins to get back up again and AJ holds his face a moment more before firing up. He nails her with a right, then a left, then a right kick, then a left kick, and then spins around before levelling her with a clothesline. The fans cheer and AJ gets pumped up in the ring.

Sharper: “Angelica looking to finish this match right there but now AJ is firing back, and what a combination from him to knock her down.”

Knots: “Angelica had no idea what hit her. Where did that come from?”

Angelica gets back up and AJ lifts her up before slamming her down to the mat. He runs the ropes, rebounding before leaping up and dropping a knee right to her face. Angelica rolls over. AJ gets back to his feet. Cruze slams the mat, encouraging his partner. AJ then grabs the recovering Angelica as she attempts to get back to her feet. He pulls her back up in a waistlock and then throws her over with a German Suplex, holding on as he does it. Angelica lands on the back of her head and shoulders but begins to struggle up as AJ holds on and gets back up, pulling her up as well before executing a second German Suplex, this time with a bridge.

1…

2…

Sharper: “ANGELICA ROLLS OFF HER SHOULDERS!”

Knots: “Nice combination from AJ, and the momentum in this one has changed completely.”

Sharper: “It seemed like this one was all Angelica and now AJ could be looking to finish this off.”

Angelica rolls over. AJ gets back to his feet. Angelica begins to get up and AJ grabs her again before launching her overhead again with another German Suplex, this time releasing. Angelica rolls over in pain as AJ gets fired up and the crowd cheers. He slaps his elbow pad. The crowd cheers again. AJ then rolls to the apron as Angelica slowly rolls over, looking a little out of it. AJ grabs the top rope and begins looking for the springboard. As he stands there and Angelica begins slowly getting up we see Lexi running out from the back, wearing an Honour Code t-shirt and cheering.

Sharper: “AJ’s looking for the… wait, Lexi on her way down here? Goddamn it, this is not what this match for AJ Helms needs.”

Knots: “Maybe she wants to be out here to celebrate the win? She’s already threatened to help where she can once tonight.”

AJ continues his focus on Angelica until Lexi gets close to the ring when he realises she’s there. She begins to get up on the apron and AJ quickly climbs back in the ring and runs across to stop her. She tries to push past him but AJ shakes his head, telling her to get down. She continues trying to get in the ring as the fans boo. AJ demands she get down. Lexi reluctantly agrees. AJ continues pointing for her to get down when Angelica grabs him from behind and rolls him up.

Sharper: “AJ doing the right thing here, getting rid of Lexi and… HEY! Wait a second!”

1…

2…

3!!!

“All The Things She Said” by T.A.T.U. hits the PA system as Angelica rolls off and AJ looks up in disbelief. Cruze yells at Lexi who looks guiltily toward the ring as Angelica celebrates.

Sharper: “I don’t believe it. Lexi tried to get involved and this whole thing backfired in the worst possible way.”

Knots: “Ha, that was hilarious. AJ needs to get his issues with Lexi sorted out, the same thing could well happen this Sunday.”

 

Sharper: “If it does, Sisterhood hold onto the titles by default!”

 

Knots: “Even better!”

 

 

 

 

COMMERCIALS

 

Brian Brewster vs. Manvel

 

“Waiting for the Kill” plays. The crowd roars a bit as a few moments pass and smoke bellow out onto the entrance way. We then see Brian Brewster walking out from the back and just scanning the arena. The crowd looks on as Brewster then steps forward and just makes his way to the ring.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a ten minute time limit. On his way to the ring, , from Savannah, Georgia, he is Brian Brewster!”

 

Brian continues on his way to the ring. Brian Brewster hops onto the apron. He then enters the ring and looks at Sammy as the music fades out.

 

Sharper: “Brewster looked impressive in his debut match a couple of weeks ago. Even had a bit of a look from our World Champion.”

 

Knots: “Perhaps some respect. Not bad for the kid. Gets him start on a hell of a right foot if you ask me!”

 

“All Around The Stars” by Mercy Drive begins to play throughout the arena. Manvel suddenly appears on the Tron as he hops out and poses at the entranceway. Manvel starts making his way down to the ring trying to kiss all the girls, most of them slap the greaser wrestler who wears more body oil than a 2-pound Chicken Fryer. Manvel hops around excited as he gets a mix reaction of cheers and boos.

 

Phillips: “And his opponent, from Miami Beach, Florida, he is Mantastic, he is Manvel!”

He slides into the ring literally and gets up, he poses and hops on to the second turnbuckle as the crowd boos and cheers. He hops back down and starts to talk to the referee while showing off his MANly abs and Mantastic physique. Waiting for the match to start.

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, Brewster all business right now, but has to deal with Manvel!”

 

Knots: “Hey! He’s Mantastic! What’s that supposed to mean?!”

 

Sharper: “Given the man cares more about the viscosity of his skin and dropkicks than putting together a solid career-“

 

Knots: “Hey!”

 

The crowd looks on as the bell sounds. Brewster walks around the ring. Manvel then smiles and looks at him before lunging and the two lock up in a collar and elbow tie-up in the middle of the ring. Brewster however immediately slips off and drops to the mat. He gets up a bit embarrassed before turning and Manvel jumps up and hits a dropkick. Brewster hits the mat. Manvel goes for the pin.

Brewster kicks out. Brewster turns and starts to get up and Manvel turns and grabs him and clubs him in the back. He clubs him again. He then pushes him into the corner. Manvel goes to whip him across, but as he throws Brewster off, Brewster slips off. He then falls to the ropes. Manvel runs at him and Brewster lifts him up and hits a back drop to the floor. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “A unique situation. Manvel’s oil causing Brewster to not have much grip.”

 

Knots: “Not worried about his career. The oil is a tactical advantage!”

 

Manvel rolls over and winces. He starts to get up and Brewster walks around the ring. (1) Manvel slowly slides in and gets up and Brewster comes over and kicks him in the ribs. He then hits a vertical suplex. Manvel hits the mat. Brewster gets up and hits an elbow drop. He goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Another dropkick. Another nearfall. Manvel more focused than he usually is.”

 

Knots: “Told you! He sees an opportunity, just like Brewster is seeing his!”

 

Manvel gets up and grabs Brewster. He then hooks him up and scoop slams him. Manvel turns and exits to the apron. He then climbs up to the top rope. He looks around as the crowd roars as Brewster then gets up and runs over and grabs Manvel and hits a press slam off the top rope. Manvel hits the mat. He rolls over and starts to get up and Brewster lifts him up and hits a backbreaker. The crowd ohs. Brewster goes for the pin.

Knots: “We need an emergency oil supply under the ring!”

 

Sharper: “Stop it!”

 

Brewster get up and Manvel starts to get up. Brewster runs at him and goes for a clothesline. Manvel ducks. Brewster turns and Manvel nails him with a hard right. Brewster turns. Manvel then tries for a backslide.

He then runs over to him and goes to clothesline him over, but Brewster turns and lifts him up and causes him to go over the top rope and land face first on the steel steps. The crowd ohs. (1) Brewster falls back and looks around. (2)

 

Knots: “Manvel just faceplanted!”

 

Sharper: “Right into the steel. Brewster not as confident as he was a few weeks ago. But he’s managed to get Manvel down and he may be out!”

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via countout, Brian Brewster!”

 

The crowd boos a bit as Brian Brewster looks around. He then nods as the official checks on Manvel on the floor.

 

The scene opens up backstage as we see Amy Chastaine, now in her wrestling gear, the SCW United States Championship over her shoulder. She walks towards the open area by the tunnel. She then stops as Regan Street and Mikaela Street walk over to her. Regan walks right up to Amy.

 

Regan: “Tonight will be the start of a beautiful partnership.”

 

Amy: “I don’t know who you convinced of this….but it won’t happen.”

 

Regan: “But just think, if we win…we’re just one step closer to getting you another title in the last year.”

 

Amy just glares at Regan.

 

Regan: “Good news is that you’re not even the one I hate the most in this match. Would’ve been two weeks ago. But it’s Stacy now. So we’ll be just great partners!”

 

Regan turns and heads into the tunnel, Mikaela following as Amy just sighs.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street and Amy Chastaine are going to team together next!”

 

The scene fades to black.

Regan Street & Amy Chastaine vs. Adrenaline Rush

 

“Adrenaline” by Shinedown begins blasting through the arena as blue and yellow lights pulse rapidly in an alternating fashion on the stage. As the opening guitar riffs of the song come to an end, blue and yellow pyro goes off on stage, and when the lyrics start Tyler Tucker excitedly leaps through the smoke and starts getting the fans amped up for the impending match. Right behind him are Craig Thomas and Stacy Kissinger hand-in-hand, both with big smiles on their faces as Craig puts an arm around Tyler’s shoulders and they all stare out at the cheering fans. When the song hits the chorus they all break into a full sprint down the ramp, Craig and Tyler leading as Stacy is right behind them.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty minute time limit. First, on their way to the ring, accompanied by Tyler Tucker, they Craig Thomas and Stacy Kissinger, they are Adrenaline Rush!”

 

The boys simultaneously slide into the ring and Stacy hops up onto the apron behind them, where Craig will go and hold the ropes open for her to join them inside. The two of them share a quick kiss before Craig joins Tyler in climbing opposite corners and point out at the fans as Stacy stands in the middle of the ring between them, proudly pointing to the boys as the fans roar. Craig and Tyler both climb down and they all go to pose in the center of the ring, Tyler sliding onto his knees in front of Craig and Stacy as he extends his arms with a big smile as Craig puts a calming hand on his friend’s head, his other hand grabbing Stacy’s before they both throw their intertwined hands into the air. Craig helps Tyler to his feet and the group convenes to their corner to discuss strategy for the match ahead.

 

Sharper: “A match I don’t know what to think. Last week, Regan Street talked about teaming with Amy Chastaine. They hate each other, but no doubt, Regan Street just messing with her.”

 

Knots: “And here we are. The Board seemed to agree to it. Mr. D is away, we’ll see how Amy and Regan do as a team!”

 

Sharper: “Adrenaline Rush meanwhile, Stacy Kissinger faces Regan this Sunday, underground rules. And Tucker has a huge opportunity. He’ll be on the floor. Craig Thomas in this match as Thomas and Kissinger continue their own Tag Team hopes.”

 

Blue and white lights flash in time with the music and the words:

"Tear me down, it won't build you up"

Amy Chastaine comes through the curtain just as the tempo of New Years Day's "Relentless" picks up with the chorus, the lights flashing to keep up. With one hand she flips her hair out of her face, gazing out at the cheering crowd. She starts down the ramp, greeting fans along the way. She shakes her head.

Phillips: “And their opponents, first, from New Orleans, Louisiana, she is the SCW United States Champion, Amy Chastaine!”

Amy gets in the ring by hopping up on the apron, and stepping between the second and third ropes. She goes to the second rope in the corner near the ring steps, and poses for the fans, one arm in the air, the other on her hip, a smile for the cheering fans. Amy hops down and then stops and looks at Adrenaline Rush and shrugs.

 

Sharper: “Amy Chastaine doesn’t know what to think here. She’s just at a loss. Even talking to Adrenaline Rush, trying to make sense of this.”

 

Knots: “Hey, Regan may be a bit different. Different tactics, but Regan and Amy could be a hell of a team.”

 

Sharper: “How do you figure?”

 

Knots: “Both former World Champions. And Regan’s hate for Amy could be a new form of renewable energy!”

 

The arena goes dark. The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is seen with a roar. Fireworks blast off the entrance as “Who's Next” by Porcelain Black plays throughout the arena. The beautiful and confident Regan Street walks out in her cat suit and ensemble with her younger sister, Mikaela behind her. She stands at the entrance way looking out into the crowd as they shower her with boos and cat calls no pun intended. Regan turns to Mikaela, they both nod before she looks around at the crowd, rolls her eyes and then smirks walking to the ring determined for her next match and starts to make her way down to the ring followed by Mikaela. Regan smiles, looking at the ring.

 

Phillips: “And her partner, accompanied by Mikaela Street, from Santa Monica, California, she is the Hellcat, Regan Street!”

Regan Street gets to the apron and hops up to the ring. As she does, Stacy heads at her. Stacy nails her with a shot and then Regan falls off the apron. Stacy steps through the ropes and immediately goes after Regan. The crowd roars. Stacy nails Regan with a forearm shot and then another.

 

Sharper: “Picking up right where they left off last week! Just without the chairs!”

 

Knots: “Stacy needing the cheap shot to get the advantage!”

 

Amy and Thomas look on Stacy nails Regan again. Mikaela looks around stunned as Stacy grabs Regan, but Regan rakes her eyes and turns and throws her into the steel steps. The top half bowl over and Tucker moves out of the way. Regan then looks at her and backs away as Amy and Craig look at one another, talking to each other. Both shrug before circling the ring. They lunge and lock up in a collar and elbow tie-up. Craig pushes Chastaine to the ropes and fires her off. Chastaine bounces off and Craig hits a back elbow. Chastaine gets back up and Craig nails her with a hard knee to the ribs. He then scoops her up and slams her down.

 

Sharper: “Chastaine and Thomas with some respect for one another. They’re competing out of that respect, but this is the oddest tag match I’ve seen.”

 

Knots: “And right now, Amy Chastaine needs to respect the strength of Thomas.”

 

Chastaine turns and Kissinger starts to get up and Thomas heads over and briefly checks on her. He turns back and Chastaine starts to get up and Thomas grabs her only for Chastaine to snapmare him over. She dropkicks him in the back of the head. She goes for the pin.

Thomas kicks out. He turns and starts to get up. Amy grabs him and clubs him in the back and then again before running into the ropes, but Regan tags herself in. Chastaine stops and Regan enters and Thomas looks up as Regan hits a dropkick. She goes for the pin.

Kissinger enters and immediately breaks it up. Regan rolls oover and Kissinger gets a stomp in before being backed up. Regan looks at Amy.

 

Regan: “Come on! We’re a team tonight! Tag Titles coming to us!”

 

Amy rolls her eyes as Regan slowly gets up. She turns to Thomas and Thomas spears her back into a neutral corner. Thomas rears back and spears her again and then again.

 

Sharper: “Thomas taking over on Regan. Regan turning her attention. Talking about Tag Titles.”

 

Knots: “Just trying to help her out!”

 

Sharper: “Not at the moment. Thomas driving his shoulder into the Hellcat’s ribs!’

 

Thomas backs up and pulls her out and hits a short-arm clothesline. He then turns and Kissinger extends her arm. Thomas turns and tags Kissinger in. Kissinger enters and Regan starts to get up and immediately, Kissinger takes Regan down with a double leg takedown. The crowd roars. Kissinger then dives on top of her and nails her with a couple of hard right hands to the jaw. The crowd roars. Regan covers up and kicks at Kissinger. Kissinger rolls off. She starts to get up and turns and Regan starts to get up and Kissinger nails her with a hard right and then another before grabbing her and going to run her across and into the neutral corner. Regan blocks it and then elbows Stacy in the ribs. She nails her again before then throwing her back with a mat slam. Kissinger rolls over and starts to get up and Regan smirks before grabbing Kissinger again and hitting another mat slam. She then turns and exits to the floor. She goes over to the timekeeper and pulls him away before grabbing his chair. She takes it and turns and rolls in and Amy immediately tags herself in. Regan turns to her before lifting the chair up. Amy enters and grabs it. Regan turns and looks at Amy as Amy pulls the chair away.

 

Sharper: “Amy just saved Stacy Kissinger!”

 

Knots: “Hey! That’s your tag partner! Just talk it out! She saved Regan from getting disqualified! What a team member!”

 

Regan turns around and Kissinger runs out and nails her with a clothesline. Amy puts the chair down on the floor. Regan hits the mat and rolls to the floor. Kissinger then turns around and as Amy watches Regan and smirks. Kissinger turns and dropkicks her down.

 

Sharper: “Kissinger just nailed Amy!”

 

Knots: “Well there is a match to win!”

 

Kissinger goes for the pin.

Amy kicks out. She rolls over and starts to get up and Kissinger grabs her and clubs her in the back and then again before hitting a vertical suplex. Kissinger turns and exits to the apron. She then climbs up to the top rope. She gets to the top rope and Regan then reaches in and pulls Amy back as she dives off with an elbow drop.

 

Knots: “Look at the teamwork!”

 

Sharper: “Regan pulling Amy out of the way!”

 

Amy rolls over as Kissinger hits the mat. She slowly gets up and Regan slides in. She runs over and nails her with the Love Tap. The crowd ohs. Regan rolls over and gets up as Thomas turns and runs at Regan and pushes her back, clotheslining her up and over the top rope to the floor. Thomas then backs up and is forced out of the ring. Kissinger slowly stirs as Amy gets up. Kissinger gets to the ropes and Thomas points to Regan as Kissinger turns and boots Amy as she runs in. Just then, we hear the sound of a vicious chair shot as Regan nails Kissinger in the back with a chair. The crowd ohs. Kissinger falls forward and Amy staggers up and quickly grabs her and rolls her up with an inside cradle.

 

Sharper: “My God! What a shot!”

 

Knots: “More teamwork!”

 

Sharper: “The referee distracted. Amy down and now the inside cradle!”

 

Regan rolls in. Tyler points to Regan as Thomas turns and goes to get past the official as Regan rakes his eyes. The referee sees the pin.

The crowd roars and boos. Regan then rolls out of the ring and with Mikaela before chuckling. Amy then turns and looks around before Kissinger rolls over, holding her back. Amy turns and notices this before Mikaela holds the chair up and smiles before dropping it. Mikaela and Regan then head around the ring. Amy just looks up.

 

Phillips: “Here are your winners, Amy Chastaine and Regan Street!”

 

Sharper: “Regan Street using the chair. Mikaela letting Amy know and she’s just figured out what happened!”

 

Knots: “Amy Chastaine and Regan Street are a step closer to the Tag Team Titles!”

 

Sharper: “Come on!”

 

Knots: “And at the expense of Stacy Kissinger and Craig Thomas! I love it!”

 

Sharper: “And with Tyler Tucker having had several take advantage of his desire for fairness, this can’t sit well. And this is only going to rile Kissinger up more!”

 

Knots: “When she recovers!”

 

Thomas looks up as Amy turns to Thomas and Thomas just motions to her to leave. Amy just sighs and rolls out of the ring. She shakes her head. She then looks around as Jason Phillips walks around and hands her the US Title. She takes it as Regan and Mikaela return to the back.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

Breakdown returns as we see Stacy Kissinger incensed as she storms down the hallway. Craig Thomas follows her with Tyler Tucker a few feet behind.

 

Craig: “Stacy!”

 

Stacy: “No…I’m done. I’m gonna make sure that she aint gonna be a problem fer ya Tyler, because she won’t be able ta walk with a chair shoved so far up her ass her face will act as a seat!”

 

The crowd roars. Stacy continues to walk off as Thomas just nods and turns to Tyler.

 

Thomas: “Good news…Regan may not be an issue this Sunday…”

 

Tucker: “I’m worried about her.”

 

Thomas: “Me too…”

 

Thomas pauses for a moment.

 

Thomas: “Also worried about Torsten Voigt…being used by Eric Teufel and after what just happened out there, I’m going to take it all out on him.”

 

The crowd cheers again as we then cut away.

 

We cut to another part of the backstage area. Kennedy Street walks down the one of the hallways. She then sees someone and storms towards them before stopping and spinning Ethan von Aaron around.

 

Kennedy: “You are here.”

 

Ethan: “I’m always here. I’m not going anywhere. Not until you understand what I’m doing! Someone has to look out for you.”

 

Kennedy: “You’re not looking out for me.”

 

Ethan: “But I am-“

 

Kennedy: “You asked Christy to immediately attack me with the Adrenaline Championship to start our match.”

 

Ethan: “Because how you got the match is repulsive and you’re not you.”

 

Kennedy looks down and shakes her head.

 

Kennedy: “I’m glad I fired you. I’m happier now than I’ve ever been and I have an opportunity. If you don’t want to be happy for me, then just say it. Otherwise, you’re the fraud.”

 

Kennedy turns and starts to walk off. Ethan then stops her.

 

Ethan: “Keenie!”

 

Kennedy turns.

 

Kennedy: “It’s Kennie.”

 

Ethan: “No…it’s Keenie. And what Keenie wants, she gets. That should be the Kennedy Street we’re getting. But now you’re happy to wait in line…that’s not your way and that’s not even the way of the Streets.”

 

Kennedy: “It is now.”

 

Ethan shakes his head. Just then, Kennedy is suddenly nailed from behind by someone. Kennedy falls to the floor, holding her head in pain. Christy Matthews then stands over her, brandishing the Adrenaline Championship.

 

Ethan: “So have you agreed?”

 

Christy: “Just practicing if I do.”

 

Christy turns and walks off. Ethan looks down at Kennedy.

 

Ethan: “Get the hint. She will beat you one way or another unless Keenie is there.””

 

Ethan then walks off as Kennedy holds her head, still in pain.

 

We then cut to ringside. We see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the announce table.

 

Knots: “Kennie…oh…”

 

Sharper: “Ethan von Aaron making clear his motivations.”

 

Knots: “He’s wrong and Christy…that was a big, big mistake.”

 

Sharper: “She will have her opportunity to show just that this Sunday. Adrenaline Championship on the line. Broken Beliefs this Sunday, live on pay per view!”

 

The Broken Beliefs logo comes up on the screen as “Help” by Papa Roach plays. The logo remains on the screen for a moment before stills of each match come up on the screen.    

 

Kennedy Street vs. Christy Matthews

SCW Adrenaline Championship

 

Knots: “Christy Matthews may have just made sure Kennie is more than motivated to win the Adrenaline Title. I know Christy has been better than most, but if she’s even thinking about going with Ethan, that’s a bad plan!”

 

Shane Lawson & Kara Abheri vs. The F-Ups

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, it was a bit of comical moment, but the F-Ups talked themselves into a fight. They’ll have to deal with Kara Abheri and Shane Lawson this Sunday.”

 

Torsten Voigt vs. Craig Thomas

 

Knots: “This won’t be comical. Torsten Voigt is a monster and this is part of what Eric Teufel wants. He’ll face Craig Thomas. Finally, one on one. They’ve gotten involved with each other multiple time in passing. Now, it’s in the ring!”

 

Stacy Kissinger vs. Regan Street

Underground Rules

 

Sharper: “This may not be in the ring and it will be violent. Kissinger and Regan Street, both very fiery as of late. They hate each other and now, everything is legal. Kissinger wants to make sure Regan doesn’t get her shot before Tyler Tucker does. They could do some serious damage to each other this Sunday!”

 

Brett Sinclaire vs. Bree Lancaster

 

Knots: “Already cost Sinclaire the TV title. Sinclaire wanted Bree in a match for months. He finally will get it. Bree said it’s to end this. To move on. Seems like the Board of Directors agreed.”

 

Dawn Lohan & Tommy Valentine vs. Gable Winchester & Autumn Valentine

 

Sharper: “The Tag Team Division in SCW is one of the deepest ever. Two couples will do battle. They both want to get some attention for a future World Tag Team Title shot. Both have had some hate times, but they’ve both said it…this is all about competition.”

 

Sam Raine vs. Sienna Swann

SCW Women’s Championship

 

Knots: “Sam Raine made a huge, huge mistake. She wanted to make an impact. She’s got a Women’s Title shot and she’s got a pissed off Angel ready to knock her to hell!”

 

Katie Steward vs. Asher Hayes

 

Sharper: “Katie Steward tried to sell Asher Hayes on her Goddess. Hayes was then jumped and attacked by the Stewards. But Hayes made clear that he’s tired of Katie Steward’s approach to her career, to wrestling and to the fans. This Sunday, Asher Hayes returns to the ring and faces off against the Hall of Famer!”

 

Blake Mason vs. Shawn Mason

 

Knots: “Blake Mason is going to get his revenge, or at least some of it. He gets Shawn Mason. The Perfect Mind, what did he say…made the Perfect Mistake. Well, Blake Mason is going to knock him around and I think he may take in some other matches, if you know what I mean!”

 

Simon Lyman vs. Donovan Kayl

 

Sharper: “This match may be his target. I hope the officials are watching and making sure this is the match it needs to be. Simon Lyman, after experiencing a stroke last summer, he returns to the ring against his friend. Blake Mason does not need to be involved. This should be a hell of a moment between Donovan Kayl and Simon Lyman!”

 

Tyler Tucker vs. Amy Chastaine

SCW United States Championship

 

Knots: “Tyler Tucker earned the shot. Amy didn’t want to take it that way. Well, he gets a second chance. Two out of three Falls. Amy is such a nice person. I just hope she didn’t just cost herself the title. Tucker’s sneaky good that way. I may not have given him credit, but he’s earned this…and then it just is a matter if Regan Street shows up!”

 

Honour Code vs. The Sisterhood

SCW World Tag Team Championship

 

Sharper: “Honour Code may have had a setback earlier when AJ Helms lost to Angelica Jones. But Lexi von Aaron cannot be an issue this Sunday if the Honour Code is to win the titles. She shows up, the match is over. Sisterhood wins. Sisterhood meanwhile has been showing they may have Honour Code’s number, and not just that, they have the ruthlessness to do what’s necessary to win.”

 

Dante McCaffery vs. Ravyn Taylor

 

Knots: “And when we’re talking about ruthlessness, this chess match…it becomes a wrestling match. They’ve had a lumberjack match. This isn’t that. This is the two of them going at it. Ravyn Taylor, Dante McCaffery…Ravyn may have met her match!”

 

Merrick Wiseman vs. Kelcey Wallace

 

Sharper: “And then what may be a unique couple of matches. Merrick Wiseman will face off against Kelcey Wallace. No title implications here, but Merrick Wiseman, if Cain advances, could have an opportunity to give him an advantage. It also evens things out regardless of who wins. But imagine if Wiseman wins.”

 

Knots: “Huge. Immediately top contender.”

 

Selena Frost vs. Vixen Cain

Kelcey Wallace vs. Frost/Cain

SCW World Championship

 

Sharper: “And that could be important based on what happens here. Selena Frost gets her rematch first. She will face Vixen Cain. Cain with his mind games. Selena Frost has the hurt ribs. This could be in Cain’s favour. But no matter what. Selena or Cain have to get through two title matches to walk out champion. Kelcey Wallace awaits.”

Knots: “Two title matches in the same night. We either get Selena/Kelcey Four….or we get Vixen Cain getting an opportunity to show what he’s been saying for a long, long time…give him the opportunity and he’ll be everyone’s worst nightmare.”

 

Sharper: “He may already be that. A huge night for SCW with a lot of implications. Broken Beliefs…”

 

Knots: “Great name, eh?”

 

Sharper: “It’s this Sunday, from Newark, live on Pay Per View!”

 

“Immortals” then starts to play as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman heading to the ring. The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Cain and Wiseman are on their way to the ring. Wallace and Frost are here. What is going to happen next on Breakdown? We’ll find out when we return!”

 

The scene fades to black.

 

COMMERCIALS

 

We return to Breakdown as we see Amy Chastaine, still in her gear, clearly not in the best mood. She walks over to Christina Matsui who is sending an official off to deal with something. Christina turns and notices Amy.

 

Christina: “Amy…”

 

Chastaine: “Look, I’m not in the mood after that…Just I said I’d be back with my stipulation since I apparently need to share it tonight.”

 

Christina: “Sorry, just following orders.”

 

Chastaine: “Yeah….yeah….well, no matter who, we may as well make sure it has the chance for a classic….I want to make it a submission match.”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Christina: “I’ll draw up the paperwork.”

 

Amy just walks off.

 

Sharper: “There you have it. In two weeks, on Breakdown, Adrenaline Title on the line. Amy Chastaine challenged either Kennedy Street or Christy Matthews in a submission match!”

 

Knots: “And that’s how she won the tournament….she’s at least had something in mind. But Amy and Kennie…they’re friends!”

 

“Cold” by Remedy starts to play as the crowd starts to boo. A few moments pass before Merrick Wiseman walks out from the back and scans the crowd. He then glances back as Vixen Cain walks out, arms extended and smiling as he holds the SCW World Championship around his waist, covered slightly by his fur coat.

 

Sharper: “The World Champion and I don’t want to call him his second. That would greatly underrepresent what Wiseman means to Cain and his World Championship. Cain may be champion, but Wiseman wants more. The return of the Watchman program. He wants the power too.”

 

Knots: “And it could all come crashing down. D is putting out another attempt to do it. Put Cain through the ringer with Syren, with Gable, now this!”

 

Sharper: “Mr. D is not here, so you wonder what Cain and Wiseman may say here. They’ve bene a thorn in his side for a while. Add their sniping of Amy Chastaine and also the mind games against Selena. Cain and Wiseman getting involved last week.”

 

Cain and Wiseman start to make their way down to the ring. The crowd continues to boo them. Wiseman reaches the ring first, hopping onto the apron and pulling himself up. He looks around before stepping into the ring. Cain walks up the steel steps and walks along the apron. He then looks around before stepping in. He smirks and looks around as he then goes to the corner along with Wiseman. The two of them are handed microphones. They take them and turn back to the middle of the ring. The music fades out as Cain and Wiseman look around. The crowd continues to boo as Cain walks over to the ropes and leans on them.

 

Cain: “Howdy D….not here tonight. And well, interesting how things turn out. Some fun….and maybe, just maybe….a few more sympathetic ears?”

 

Cain smirks. Wiseman then looks around.

 

Cain: “You know what that means…”

 

Wiseman: “Perhaps we can ensure some of the problems that have been taking place here will get taken care of. The attacks backstage…the near career ending assaults…They would not be getting off easy. What investigation is happening? Oh yeah…you want your feel-good story about Lyman and Kayl….”

 

Wiseman smirks and shakes his head.

 

Wiseman: “The desperation is getting sad.”

 

Cain: “It really is. And it’s amazing, when you’re not here, people do their jobs. Amy Chastaine’s made a choice on her Adrenaline Title match….maybe this time she can actually win the title instead of being a fraud. I hope that Tyler Tucker understands that….and I hope the world understands that even as World Champion, the LEGITIMATE World Champion, there is ZERO chance, I’m ignoring my first love, the US Title…”

 

Wiseman: “But we’re a bit busy, since well, as I mentioned….desperation.”

 

Cain smirks.

 

Cain: “And that’s what this Sunday is. I mean we tried to do the right things. We have morality on our side. Selena Frost was clearly in a lot of pain. And trust me, I know what I felt when I drove my shoulder right into her ribs and beat her for the World Title in front of the world. I heard the crack. I felt the crack. She’s not at one hundred percent and yet she still comes out and here and BELIEVES! Don’t all of you! BELIEVE! BELIEVE! Come on! Let me hear you!”

 

The crowd roars as a “We Believe!” chant starts. Cain looks around and laughs a bit. Wiseman scans the crowd too.

 

Cain: “Well keep believing, but believing is not reality, but we have the PERFECT follow-up….because Tainted Justice, we have what….we’ll be facing her twice. And we’ve been seeing the cracks in the façade. Kelcey, doing what she always does, sees one loss and immediately doubts the world…and now she’s standing on her own. Convenient after she led a sneak attack backstage. Well, Kelcey, no need for sneak attacks. You just have to worry about facing someone who is better physically than you. Stronger physically than you. You know, the perfect opponent and the Perfect Champion for SCW right now-“

 

Selena’s voice is then heard.

 

Selena: “Are you done?”

 

The crowd roars. A few moments pass before Selena Frost and Kelcey Wallace walk out from the back, both with microphones in their hand.

 

Cain: “Oh good, we have guests! I forgot to put out a spread! Then again, not like SCW would spend the money for it!”

 

Selena: “Don’t worry, we’re not here to eat.”

 

Wiseman: “To prepare everyone for the massive let down.”

 

Kelcey: “Where do we even start with these two?”

 

Selena: “Well how about the fact that both of you are going to understand the phrase seeing is believing, because with Kelcey kicking your ass Merrick, and me finally getting my rematch, and trust me Cain, with the bloody belt you sent me, the belt you threw into the crowd. Keep playing the mindgames. I’ve been through worse and I just have to look at someone I respect miles more than you and that’s Kelcey Wallace.”

 

Cain chuckles a bit.

 

Kelcey: “See, Vixen, Merrick, last week was something both Selena and I were looking forward to. But you had to ruin it because what was it…you were looking out for Selena’s wellbeing and no doubt you figured that you’d have a night off. Well, Cain, Wiseman, I’ve stood up against Mr. D in the past and it was one of the worst decisions of my life. And I’m a hell of a lot smarter than you.”

 

Cain: “Results would say otherwise.”

 

Kelcey glares at Cain.

 

Kelcey: “You know what, I’m almost said. I probably am not going to get to kick your ass because I’m gunning for Selena to beat you down and take your title so we can have the rematch we envisioned months ago!”

 

Selena: “And trust me, I plan to deliver!”

 

The crowd cheers loudly. Selena and Kelcey look around.

 

Selena: “Because Perfect Storm may have been temporary to deal with Blake, but right now, we’re still on the same side heading into Broken Beliefs. We want the same thing. To face each other one more time, World Title on the line. I thank Mr. D for giving us that chance and trust me, when we’re going to do anything to do it. Believe it!”

 

Cain: “Oh is that it…You mean you two think this is about that potential match? Oh no. That’s a nice story if it even happens. But that’s not THE story. Because the two of you are being used. You’re just the latest attempt to knock me from this perch. And the problem is that while you two can have all of the confidence in the world….despite the fact that I am just better than you by virtue of who I am…”

 

Cain smirks. Selena and Kelcey both look at him disgusted.

 

Cain: “But let’s think a little bit about what REALLY could happen. Selena, your ribs…they’re all fine right. Even if you’re pumping yourself full of painkillers, you’re just on that line between getting cleared and sitting at home…and frankly, we were doing you a favour. You should recuperate. Rib injuries are a nasty thing. But then again, I’ll just spear you again…or show what someone without a rib injury can do. Because after what Kelcey put you through, you’re not going to be at one hundred percent. Instead, Frosty, I just see someone I can use to pin to D some more. Another big injury…”

 

Cain smirks as Selena looks at the ring.

 

Cain: “And Kelcey…you’re hoping it’s Selena so you can have the easy win. You’ve always been that shrewd. Why you were so happy to screw over Ravyn at Rise to Greatness two years ago. Too bad I did it better and it lasted!”

 

The crowd boos more.

 

Cain: “But there’s a bigger problem…”

 

Wiseman: “Me…Because Kelcey, you can claim whatever you want. That title gives us attention and the spotlight and plus, knowing it drives the boss wild, even better to us. And my match against you, while some may go, Merrick, if you win, you’re made…and they’d be right. If I injure you, I don’t need to worry about being made. And Kelcey…unlike Blake or Bree may have, and may have tried to end your career. I don’t intend to do that. I just intend to make it so you have no chance of winning the World Title when you inevitably face Cain later that night.”

 

Cain: “See, the World Championship is so often seen as synonymous with power…just look at Selena who’s own stupidity led to her downfall. But we see this as the power it is….knowing that people listen to the World Champion.”

 

Selena: “Then listen here…even with my ribs being as they are…if we can help D with his jackass problem, so be it. But we’re looking at the title and just as Regan what happens when you focus only on my ribs and try to take me out.”

 

Kelcey: “And Cain, Wiseman….give it your best. This is something I want more than anything right now. You two will have to watch. And if Blake and Bree get involved, they’ll regret it. We will get our World Championship main event. And it will be Perfect!”

 

Selena: “Believe it!”

 

Cain just mouths mocking “Okay…okay…” as “What I Believe” by Skillet starts to play throughout the arena. Cain just points to this. He then points to himself as Wiseman keeps watching Selena and Kelcey. Kelcey and Selena remain standing side by side as they look down at the ring.

 

Sharper: “This Sunday! Two World Title matches. Selena Frost faces Vixen Cain first. Kelcey Wallace faces the winner.”

 

Knots: “But Merrick Wiseman is waiting for Kelcey. Blake and Bree too. What will happen this Sunday?!”

 

The camera keeps cutting between the two duos as the music continues to play and a “We Believe! Kelcey Wallace!” duelling chant begins to break out. Cain just looks around and rolls his eyes as the scene fades to black…
