“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”
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.
MAIN SHOW:
“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play. We see the SCW Breakdown logo come up on the screen before we see a shot of Kelcey Wallace walking out to the ring with Chris Cannon and then showing Sienna Swann hitting the Slice of Heaven on Jake Starr.

They say we are what we are
But we don't have to be
I'm glad to hate you but I do it in the best way
I'll be the watcher of the eternal flame
I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams
We see a shot of Dylan Howell walking to the ring with Jessica Howell before showing Tommy Valentine hitting James Evans with the Griever’s Bane. We see a shot of Rachel Foxx going to hit Syren with a sledgehammer before showing Syren ducking and her hitting Adam Sharper instead before we follow up with a shot of Syren celebrating with the SCW World Championship at Rise to Greatness.
I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (Glass, glass)
A shot of Red Rayne spewing the Bloodbath into the eyes of Christy Matthews is shown before showing Dawn Lohan standing over Selena Frost. We then see Collin Cole trying to attack Xander Valentine only to be caught and thrown down to the mat.
I'll try to picture me without you but I can't
We then see a shot of Alexis Quinne and PUNK HAZARD carrying their banner.
'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long
If we meet forever now, pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long
We could be immor immortals, immor immortals
Immor immortals,
immor immortals
Immortals
We then see a shot of Merrick Wiseman handcuffing Ravyn Taylor before showing Adrenaline Rush in the ring. Shots of CHBK standing with Mikaela Street, followed by Katie Steward posing and David Helms walking to the ring are shown. This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping Rachel Foxx with the Catnap inside Tactical Warfare before showing Jake Starr hitting the shooting five star frog splash from the top of a cage onto Silas Mason before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.
The scene cuts to the inside of the First Niagara Center in Buffalo, New York. Pyro shoots from both ends of the stage and towards the middle before back out to the outside and then all across the stage. Spotlights circle around the arena as the camera pan throughout the arena, showing the many fans who have filed into the arena standing and cheering, waving banners, signs, t-shirt and whatever else they have. The cameras pan for a few moments before cutting to ringside to show Adam Sharper and Jay Gold at the announce table.
Sharper: “Welcome everyone to Buffalo for Breakdown. Adam Sharper here with Jay Gold and we’re continuing the march to Apocalypse where Kelcey Wallace and Ravyn Taylor will clash for the World Title.”
Gold: “And Adam, great to see you back. I’m still stunned with what Kelcey Wallace and Monarchy did last week.”
Sharper: “Well, something has changed in that young lady and it’s a damn shame, but I’ll keep going. Jonathan Knots, hopefully, he’ll be back soon. But tonight, it will be Jay joining me for the first half. And we’ve got plenty to look forward to tonight.”
Gold: “Underground Championship on the line tonight. Stacy Kissinger will go up against Blood Grove’s Matt Auclair and someone needs to set them back a bit.”
Sharper: “Along with that, we have a huge main event. Vixen Cain looks to defeat another former World Champion. He’ll face Syren later tonight.”
“Rebel Son” by CFO$ plays throughout the arena.....
“God Save Our Queen”….
The lights go out.....
The video package plays on the Tron of the Union Jack waving while showing Lucas Knight, Trinity Street, Chris Cannon and finally Kelcey Wallace all posing in front of the camera before the chorus plays on the entrance theme, it then starts to play each of them in action performing their finishers on various opponents while still showing the Union Jack waving…
A single spotlight shines in the entranceway as Lucas Knight, Trinity Street, Chris Cannon and finally Kelcey Wallace come out in unison and stand in front of the walk way side to side, Shawn Mason standing behind them. The four pose in front of the entranceway looking out to the fans stoically while a chorus of boos rain down on them. A shower of fireworks streams down behind them before they slowly make their way to the ring. The camera then focuses on Kelcey Wallace as she has an older version of the SCW World Championship over her shoulder.
Gold: “Wait a minute. I recognize that…”
Sharper: “Monarchy joining us to start. Kelcey Wallace meanwhile coming out with the first version of the SCW World Championship.”
Gold: “Yeah…that’s from 2003…2004…same title I once held.”
As the four reach the apron, Lucas and Chris go up simultaneously first and hold the ropes open for Trinity and Kelcey respectively as they step in first followed by Lucas then Chris. Shawn Mason enters last. He walks across the ring as Kelcey walks over to the middle of the ring and proudly stands in the middle with her title. Lucas looks at Sharper and smirks as Trinity watches Sharper too. We show Sharper watching them as Mason is handed a microphone. Shawn Mason takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring.
Mason: “Please welcome…your PERFECT Champion, presented by Monarchy…Kelcey Wallace!”
The crowd boos as Shawn Mason turns and hands the microphone to Kelcey Wallace. She smiles as she then looks at the older version of the SCW World Title over her shoulder. She then brings the microphone up to her mouth.
Kelcey: “This is the image all of you should have burned in your minds. I am a champion…”
Kelcey turns and walks over to the ropes nearest the SCW announce table. She looks at Adam Sharper.
Kelcey: “That is what I am and what I deserve…and if you have a problem with that, I will make you regret it!”
Adam Sharper is shown before Kelcey turns back to the middle of the ring. She walks back to the middle of it.
Kelcey: “No matter what our boss wants to say. The fact of the matter is that I should be standing here as World Champion. No one has sacrificed more. And no one has EARNED more. And that is why Trinity has helped out in ensuring justice is done. She has gotten hold of this…”
Kelcey holds up the SCW World Championship on her shoulder.
Kelcey: “And it is mine. Sorry CHBK…but you’ve stopped acting like a champion. And it will be mine until I get the real thing that’s been momentarily taken from me because of the misguided decisions of Mr. D. And Ravyn Taylor should realize that she is just outclassed. Much like she was outmaneuvered and outsmarted at Rise to Greatness, she will be again at Apocalypse. The only difference is that I don’t have to deal with the additional issue of Kennedy Street. Your forever title reign is over and your time at the top has come to an end. It is time for the Monarchy to dominate and take its place at the head of professional wrestling. I know some may not like it or like our tactics but we are done waiting.”
The crowd boos. Trinity just smiles as Chris Cannon stands right next to Kelcey in the ring.
Kelcey: “Now Ravyn, you decided to do one more foolish thing. You asked for this match to be no disqualifications, no countouts. It means you can’t take the easy way out. But it also means that you won’t be able to beat me. I don’t know if you realize, you probably do and had a moment of arrogance…but let’s name someone who has beaten me one on one by pinfall or submission…”
Kelcey smirks.
Kelcey: “Oh wait…we’re done. That list is non-existent. You want to step into the ring with me with rules that favour me…Good luck Ravyn, but your arrogance and allegedly intelligence has exposed you. I will be holding the current World Title again at Apocalypse…this is merely a placeholder.”
Kelcey looks out at the crowd boos. She looks at the World Title on her shoulder before turning and handing the microphone to Chris Cannon. Cannon takes it and looks around. The boos continue.
Cannon: “While Ravyn seems to have dug her own grave, I have a bit of a different situation and a controversy if you will. SCW has loved to throw that around when there wasn’t one. So I’m going to use it when there clearly is one. It seems like some people need to realize that they’re clearly just desperate. Right, Selena?”
Cannon looks at the camera as the crowd boos.
Cannon: “See, last week, Selena Frost decided to challenge Red Rayne for the Adrenaline Championship. That’s cute. Too bad I have an Adrenaline Championship shot and personally, I was hoping to take advantage of it at Apocalypse. Now Selena, I know this is hard for you to understand, but you don’t control anything and I don’t give a damn about your closure or what you think about Red Rayne or Blood Grove. In fact, if you died tomorrow, I would probably not care!”
The crowd boos as Cannon looks forward at the camera.
Cannon: “So I’m making this clear, not just to you, not just to Red Rayne, but to Mr. D….you have a chance to at least mitigate your stupidity from last week with one simple good decision. Ignore Selena Frost like you should and sign Red Rayne to defend her title against me. I have waited for this match for nearly a year. And I’ll say this…if Selena Frost gets a shot against Rayne before I get mine…I will make sure that it is wasted and she goes to the back of the line as she should!”
Cannon looks out at the crowd before backing up a bit.
Cannon: “You need to realize that the game has changed and that Monarchy rules…”
The crowd boos. Trinity smiles as Lucas applauds. Cannon brings the microphone down as “Rebel Son” starts to play. Chris Cannon then hands it back over to Shawn Mason. Mason takes it and places it on the apron. Monarchy then stands in the middle of the ring and looks out at the crowd. The crowd boos before Lucas and Cannon exit the ring. Trinity is next before Kelcey Wallace turns to Sharper. She then turns and exits the ring.
Sharper: “I can’t believe this group…All of them…Kelcey and Cannon especially.”
Gold: “The arrogance, they believed they’re owed it…and they think Kelcey Wallace is set against Ravyn!”
Sharper: “I hope this entire group gets a rude awakening!”
Gold: “And on top of that, they stole CHBK’s first SCW World Title.”
Sharper: “Talk about a way to change that game…and we don’t even know why CHBK was so quick to face Shilo…I think Trinity has a theory.”
Gold: “And we’re just starting tonight.”
Shawn Mason heads around the ring to join Monarchy as Lucas Knight, Trinity Street, Kelcey Wallace and Chris Cannon continue to walk up the rampway. The crowd continues to boo them as they make their way up the ramp and to the back.
COMMERCIAL:
We return to Breakdown and open up backstage to see CHBK on his cell phone in his locker room. We see Spirit Dansby knocking on the door.
Spirit: “CHBK…can I get a word? Is that your World Championship-“
Mikaela then steps forward.
Mikaela: “Can’t you see he’s on the phone?! Get the hell out of here.”
Spirit: “Just that one question-“
CHBK glares at Spirit.
Mikaela: “Get out of here. Out of here!”
Spirit is backed up and moved out of the room. The cameraman is too and Mikaela slams the door. The camera focuses on the door for a moment before we cut to ringside.
Simon Lyman vs. Craig Thomas
“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 is Craig Thomas with a rare smile on his face as he puts an arm around Tyler’s shoulders and points out to the cheering fans. Stacy Kissinger then steps out. When the song hits the chorus all three both break into a full sprint down the ramp and simultaneously slide into the ring. They go to climb opposite corners and point out at the fans before climbing down and going to pose in the center of the ring, Tyler sliding onto his knees in front of Craig and extending his arms with a big smile as Craig puts a calming hand on his friend’s head, the smile now leaving his face as his usual emotionless expression takes over. Kissinger stands to the side, pointing at them. Craig helps Tyler to his feet and the trio convene to their corner to discuss strategy for the match ahead.
Gold: “I like this team a lot. Young, fast, driven and Stacy Kissinger has proven to be just a good addition to them.”
Sharper: “They’re a great young team. Huge opportunity at Apocalypse. They have a chance to be on top of the Tag Team world. They just have to get through Standing Room Only. It’s official. Titles on the line.”
The house lights dim and the opening cymbal crash and riffs to "Tonight" by Seether begins to blare throughout the arena. A buzz can be heard rising through the crowd into cheers as the lyrics begin...
I'm not gonna waste this
This opportunity's mine
I'm sick of complaining
About a beautiful life
On the Jumbotron, clips of Simon hitting high impact and high risk moves plays as the song continues, hyping the fans even further.
How did we get here?
Did we forget all the things inside?
And how do we stay here?
Do we embrace all the things denied?
As the refrain begins, 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 in his ring attire. Donovan Kayl walks out with them. Cailey and Simon look at each other then the crowd smiling ear-to-ear before striding to the ring confidently side-by-side. Kayl walks over and rubs Simon’s shoulders, getting him psyched up.
I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over, and we're older
While the fans roar, Simon, Donovan and Cailey arrive at the ring. Simon takes off his jacket handing it to Cailey and they kiss each other briefly, then Simon enters the ring with Cailey in his corner. Donovan Kayl walks around the ring. Lyman goes to each of the corners and climbs to the second turnbuckle while the song continues to play
Like sugar and cyanide
These worlds are gonna collide
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over, and we're older
As "Tonight" winds down with Simon now in his corner we see a slight smile still on his face looking out into the crowd anticipating the start of the match and the show he will put on for them before going back to his corner to talk with Cailey and Kayl on the outside awaiting the start of the match.
Sharper: “Donovan Kayl joining Lyman and Cailey Carter here at ringside. You wonder what Standing Room Only is thinking about what we saw from Monarchy before the commercial break.”
Gold: “And that’s the thing. They were former allies of Kelcey and Cannon. Trinity Street used to be married to Simon Lyman. It’s hard to see them go down that path.”
Sharper: “Either way, I want to apologize to Simon for not answering his calls. It’s been a tough week. But we’ll see how tonight’s goes.”
Simon Lyman turns to Craig Thomas as the bell rings. The crowd roars. Thomas and Lyman watch one another before the two lunge and grapple in the middle of the ring with a collar and elbow tie-up. The crowd roars and Lyman turns and moves into an arm wrench. Thomas winces and Lyman jerks on the arm again. He then holds on. Thomas reaches up and pushes up and turns and manages to counter into an arm wrench of his own. He holds on and Lyman reaches up. Thomas jerks on the arm. He then clubs Lyman in the back. Lyman winces and falls to a knee. He gets up and Thomas clubs him again. He then turns and wrenches the arm again. Lyman falls to a knee. He starts to get up and Thomas turns and whips Lyman into the ropes. Lyman bounces off and Thomas goes for a hip toss. Lyman blocks it and knees Thomas in the ribs. He then hits a sloppy hip toss, taking him over. Thomas gets up and turns back to Lyman and Lyman hits a much strong hip toss down.
Sharper: “Didn’t get all of the first one. Got all of the second.”
Gold: “And it’s what it is. You take what you get. It still stung for Thomas.”
Thomas starts to get up and Lyman nails him with a forearm. He then chops him. The crowd woos. He then chops him again. More woos. Lyman pushes him against the ropes before launching her across. Thomas bounces off and Lyman clotheslines him down. Thomas hits the mat and Lyman jumps up and hits an elbow to the chest. He follows up with a quick pin attempt.

Stacy comes over and gives some advice as Lyman gets up.
Sharper: “Lyman knocks down Thomas again. Kissinger however giving some advice.”
Gold: “And even with the Underground Championship match later, she’s focusing on helping out Adrenaline Rush here in this big match.”
Lyman turns and grabs Thomas off the ropes, spins him around and nails him with a hard forearm. He then grabs him and whips him across the ring. Thomas bounces off the ropes. Lyman goes to scoop him up, but Thomas turns and manages to slide down Lyman’s back. Thomas cuffs Lyman in the back of the head before throwing him back with a back suplex. The crowd roars a bit. Kayl and Carter look on as Lyman rolls over. He starts to get up and Thomas gets up and waits for him to turn and kicks him in the ribs. He nails him with a hard right and then another. Lyman falls to the ropes. Thomas grabs him and pulls him up and whips him across the ring. Lyman bounces off and Thomas scoops him up and powerslams him down. He then hooks the leg.

Thomas walks after and nails him with a back elbow. Lyman winces. Thomas nails him again. He then pulls him up before pulling him out and into grabbing him and hitting a side belly to belly suplex. He goes for the pin.

The crowd roars as “Adrenaline” plays throughout the arena. Tucker rolls in and runs over to Thomas as he gets up. Kissinger climbs up onto the apron and enters the ring and joins Thomas. They all then celebrate. Kayl walks up the steel steps and enters the ring. Lyman rolls over in pain. Thomas, Tucker and Kissinger continue to celebrate as Kayl helps Lyman up slowly. Lyman winces and Kayl then turns and looks at Tucker, Thomas and Kissinger. They turn and Kayl extends his hand. Kissinger then looks at Adrenaline Rush before extending her hand. The two teams shake hands as Lyman points at Thomas. The crowd cheers. Standing Room Only then exit the ring and Carter hands Lyman and Kayl their tag titles.
Gold: “Good sign of respect. But you know Craig Thomas, Tyler Tucker and Stacy Kissinger are hoping those Tag Titles end up around their waist at Apocalypse.”
Sharper: “They’ve been slowly working up the ladder. They are more and more impressive by the week. Standing Room Only is back on top of the tag team mountain. Adrenaline Rush is going to look to take over in a couple of weeks. Tonight’s win shows just how it may happen.”
Standing Room Only continue to head to the back as Adrenaline Rush return to their celebration.
COMMERCIAL:
Breakdown returns and we see Ethan von Aaron walking into the building from the back entrance. Maximillian steps in and looks around before we see Carlos pushing a stand with wheels and an Ipad on the top of it.
Ethan: “Well we’re here…”
Kennedy: “Good…and this is all anyone is getting of me.”
Kennedy’s face is on the Ipad as she looks around before trying to look behind her.
Kennedy: “Carlos honey, can you keep pushing forward? Even with Maximillian here, I still feel someone may try to attack me.”
Ethan :”If that happens, I will protect you with my life.”
Kennedy: “Now, let’s get me to my locker room. If they want to hear from Keenie, they’re going to have to come to me! Carlos…push!”
Carlos starts to push Kennedy forward as Ethan and Maximillian walk in front of her as the crowd boos.
Gold: “Are you serious?”
Sharper: “That’s our former World Champion…coming in on Ipad apparently…”
Dalton “Tank” Hughs vs. Sammy Thomas Davies
We open up at ringside to see Sammy Thomas Davies in the ring with Clamidiya at ringside. The crowd looks on.
Sharper: “Welcome back to ringside. Kennedy Street clearly showing that she’s a bit off-kilter.”
Gold: “A bit. She’s on an Ipod on Skype. Something off there.”
Sharper: “In any case, Sammy Thomas Davies about to be in action.”
Gold: “Know him well. Good guy. Beat him for the Tag Titles a decade ago.”
The lights cut out and "do you call my name?" by RA starts playing. Once the lights turn back on Dalton is already walking halfway down the ramp looking straight forward into the ring. Dalton doesn't interact with the crowd nor show any interest in his surroundings. Wearing his black loose fitting jeans and a black wife beater he stomps his black combat boots up the steps and then climbs into the ring. Dalton just stands by his turnbuckle and waits. He shows no excitement or energy, just anger.
Sharper: “Dalton Hughs ready to go. A new signee to SCW.”
Gold: “Looks the part, but can he show it off? Can he get it done in the ring?”
The bell sounds and Hughs steps forward as STD runs up and nails him with a hard right and then another before another before Hughs shoves him back. STD rolls back and looks up at him. He then turns and runs at him. Hughs goes for a clothesline, but STD ducks and runs into the ropes. He jumps off the middle rope and dives back, but Hughs nails him with a forearm to the face, knocking him down. STD rolls over in pain. He then starts to get up.
Sharper: “Oh boy. Hard shot. Davies knocked down.”
Gold: “May need to use a diversion or two.”
STD turns and runs at Hughs and Hughs kicks him in the ribs. Hugh then hip throws him over. STD gets back up and turns back to Hughs and Hugh throws him over again. Hughs watches as STD gets up and just launches him into the air. STD lands hard chest first. He rolls over and holds his ribs. He then starts to get up. Hughs grabs STD by the hair and belt before turning and throwing him hard, face first into the middle turnbuckle. STD falls back and rolls over. Hughs stomps him hard in the face. STD rolls over, holding his face in pain. Clamidiya looks on in horror.
Sharper: “Oh God! This is turning into a bit of a nightmare for Sammy Thomas Davies.”
Gold: “He’s got so much strength. He’s going to have to come up with something to counter this. But what?”
STD slowly rolls over and starts to stir only for Hughs to grab him and places his head between his legs. He then lifts him up and plants him with one powerbomb. He however holds on before hoisting him up and dropping him with a second powerbomb. The crowd ohs. Hughs then hoists STD a third time before launching him forward and just slamming him down with a vicious powerbomb. Hughs walks over and steps over him, kneeling down and pressing down on his chest.

The crowd roars as Hughs slowly gets up. He looks down at STD and “Do You Call My Name?” by RA starts to play. Hughs looks around and then looks down at STD who remains down in the middle of the ring.
Sharper: “Dominant. Simply dominant!”
Gold: “He just beat a former Tag Team Champion. That’s not something to scoff at. We may have a monster on our hands here.”
Hughs looks around as the cameras focus on him. He looks around as the referee even backs away from him. The crowd looks on as Hughs looks out at them. He then slowly turns and makes his exit. He drops down to the floor, slowly making his exit as the cameras focus on him and we cut away.
“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play. We then see the Breakdown logo come up on the screen. This is followed by a shot of David Helms and then a shot of Alexis Quinne. We then see both.
Sharper: “A lot of people talking about this one. David Helms will face off against the Women’s Champion, Alexis Quinne.”
Gold: “A lot keeping their eyes on Alexis Quinne.”
Sharper: “We also know that Datura, the woman who will face Helms at Apocalypse is in Buffalo. Will she make an appearance? We’ll find out, next!”
The scene slowly fades to black.
COMMERCIAL:
Breakdown returns and we open up backstage to the SCW interview area. We then see Jessica Winters standing in front of the stylized banner.
Jessica: “Welcome back to Breakdown here in Buffalo. Please welcome, joining me at this time…Vixen Cain.”
Cain walks in and smiles. The crowd boos as he looks around. He then turns to Jessica as she speaks. He then moves her hair from her eyes and hooks it around her ear.
Jessica: “Well Vixen, you’ve been on the tip of a lot of people’s tongues but for a lot of notoriety. First the situation with Nicole-“
Cain just stops Jessica.
Cain: “Tut, tut, tut…Jessica. Nicole and I are embarking on a professional relationship. I’m just helping her move on from this booping nonsense and embrace the inner monster she has because frankly, that makes things far more interesting. She’s then a much more predictable member f the roster and then this company can ensure she’s booked appropriately instead of as a joke for these fans and as for Kennedy Street, she gets the added bonus of knowing that if she sees Nicole…well…she should run.”
Cain smiles.
Jessica: “Professional relationship?”
Cain: “And as a result, I can’t say more than I have.”
Cain turns to Jessica.
Cain: “Now, if you may, I’m much more interested in my match tonight. I get to get under a few more people’s skin, don’t I? What? Don’t people like that I have a problem that all of the real men have gone. I want to see competition for the greatest prize, not a catfight with the circle queens…and the emo chick, complaining about who’s perfume is cheapest.”
Jessica: “That’s not-“
Cain: “Please. You don’t need to defend them. Some people are upset with my honesty. But we’ve seen too many frivolities trivialize the World Title for too long. Syren is one of the biggest advancers of that. Now, get me wrong. Syren, Kelcey, Ravyn…Kennedy…they’re fine competitors and good wrestlers. Some could use a sandwich or some more self-esteem given some of the enhancements, but that’s the thing. Those issues should be long dealt by the time you get to the top. You need confidence. You need to be confident in your skills. Getting angry when someone challenges your worldview…”
Cain scoffs.
Cain: “That’s just weak. And tonight, another former World Champion, this one Syren, is going to find out that a real man is here to help lead the charge…”
Cain chuckles and turns.
Cain: “Plus, it’s far more fun when there’s a big strapping young man across the ring. So much unbridled energy…just would love to tap into it on the big stage. These girls just can’t handle that.”
Cain smiles and walks off. Jessica Winters just looks at him disgusted.
Gold: “No wonder everyone is annoyed by him. Especially the women.”
Sharper: “Well I think he may get a wake-up call.”
Gold: “I hope he doesn’t believe it. With the pushing of Nicole Kinneck’s buttons, and others, you wonder if this is to get under their skin.”
Sharper: “I’ll tell you this. If not, there are a lot of people who would show him otherwise. This is 2015. Men and women are equals, and never has that been truer in the ring.”
David Helms vs. Alexis Quinne
The arena's lights cut and the room falls into complete darkness as a buzz spreads through the crowd, the screens suddenly lighting up with one single solitary word...
"BANG!"
As the crowd react, the entire stage lights up with a brilliant white light and the opening riff of an SCW remixed version of "All I Want" by A Day To Remember hits the pa system. The crowd erupt into cheers again as they spot the silhouette of David Helms standing there, his arms held aloft and his hands throwing the Self High Five, all framed by the brilliant white light behind him.
“ALL I WANT IS A PLACE TO CALL MY OWN
TO MEND THE HEARTS OF EVERYONE WHO FEELS ALONE
WOAH; YOU KNOW TO KEEP YOUR HOPES UP HIGH
BUT YOU HEAD DOWN LOW!”
The intro gives way to the chorus and the lyrics of said chorus flash up on the screen as Helms suddenly jumps into the air and breaks his hands apart, pyrotechnics exploding on either side of the stage as he lands and the house lights raise again as Helms grins at the fans before suddenly bolting towards the ring.
Phillips: "Making his way to the ring from Red Bank New Jersey now fighting out of Santa Monica California; he weighed in earlier tonight at one hundred ninety nine pounds and is an SCW Supreme Champion. Give it up... FOR DAVID HELMS!!!"
Reaching the ring, Helms jumps up and slides under the bottom rope feet first before jumping straight back to his feet and climbing straight to the middle rope of the nearest ring post. He throws his hands up into the Self High Five to another cheer before hopping down and walking towards the closest camera on the outside. He throws his hands into the Self High Five to the camera so that his face is framed by the gap in the middle of his hands. Grinnin, he mouths the word "Bang!" into the camera before turning and settling back into the corner to another cheer from the fans as he waits for the start of the match.
Sharper: “David Helms about to get ready. Some of the buzz about this match was that it was signed prior to Breakdown last week before Sienna Swann was injured. Swann having set her sights on a potential Women’s Championship challenge.”
Gold: “And hopefully Sienna Swann heals quickly. She has a micro-fracture in her ankle thanks to Katie Steward shoving her off.”
Sharper: “And we’re hearing that Katie Steward is going to speak later.”
Gold: “Well I’d love to hear what she’s going to say.”
The eyes all focus on the stage as “A Stranger I Remain” hits over the P.A System. The crowd starts to buzz and boo as Alexis Quinne walks out from the back with a wicked smiled on her face. Grundy, El Rudo and Dante McCaffery also walk out, with the latter tagging along slower than the rest. Alexis is sporting a green, silver and black PUNK HAZARD hoodie with the same colors underneath in the form of the all new green beater with PUNK HAZARD on the front with the SCW Women's Championship wrapped around her waist, noticeably with "LEXI" written all over it in green spray paint. El Rudo has the new all green PUNK HAZARD hoodie and his trusty salt bucket in his hands. Grundy is sporting an black jumpsuit with the PUNK HAZARD logo on the back in green. The San Francisco native looks at the crowd. Quinne and El Rudo share an unique handshake before finishing with a knuckle pound. She starts her trot down to the ring. Grundy and El Rudo follow as Dante trails along.
I've come here to save you
And I can already taste the kill
Like caressing an angel
Burning up in the atmosphere
And with the blood of a dying star above
My true aesthetic's unwinding
And I'm about to come undone
Phillips: From San Francisco, California, she is the leader of PUNK HAZARD and the SCW Women's Champion, ALEXIS....QUINNNNE!
Alexis looks around as she continues to touch her championship. Meanwhile El Rudo and Grundy are following her with Dante not so far behind, looking annoyed at the presence of the fans. El Rudo antagonizes the fans while Grundy scares some of them with his near presence. Alexis looks at some of the members of the audience, smirking, before walking up the steel steps and goes under the bottom rope. El Rudo places his trust bucket on the apron before sliding in the ring. Grundy frantically starts going after the nearest cameraman as Dante tags along with him.
So don't let me become the one you love
'Cause I'll just take your blood and use you up
I know it's tempting to jump off the edge and fly
But this is not a dream
So don't let me become the one you love
Here I come
Alexis unfastens her Women's Championship and hoist it up high to boos. El Rudo points to her as Alexis sticks her tongue out to all the booing audience members. Pitn Sized Awesomeness mockingly motions for the crowd to get louder, provoking more boos. Alexis soon takes off her hoodie and throws it to the outside. She then walks to a nearby corner and sits on the top turnbuckle as Dante and Grundy stand on the outside; El Rudo on the apron talking to Alexis.
Gold: “A lot of people out here. Helms has Scarlett and Matty. PUNK HAZARD here for Alexis.”
Sharper: “The question is going to be if PUNK HAZARD gets involved. What are they hoping for here?”
Helms looks at Alexis as Alexis looks across at Helms. The bell sounds. Helms then walks out and Quinne yells at Helms. She then turns and points to El Rudo who is holding the SCW Women’s Championship. Helms shakes his head before saying “You done?” Quinne then steps up to Helms and goes for a forearm. Helms blocks it and wrenches the arm before turning and whipping Quinne into the ropes. Quinne bounces off and Helms hoists her up on the rebound and launches her up with a huge back drop. Quinne holds her back upon landing and rolls over to the ropes. Helms turns and watches Quinne. Quinne starts to get up. Helms goes after Quinne and Quinne steps through the ropes. The referee tells Helms to get back. Helms backs up and the crowd boos. Quinne then steps back in and runs over and jumps up onto Helms. She starts to rake at the eyes of Helms and Helms shoves her back. Quinne rolls over. She starts to get up and Helms steps over to her and Quinne thumbs him in the eyes again. He turns away and Quinne jumps up and hits a dropkick, knocking him forward and the momentum causes Helms to go through the ropes and to the floor.
Sharper: “Helms going to the floor. Hard dropkick by Quinne, takes him down.”
Gold: “And that’s the thing about Quinne. She’s much faster, but she’ll widdle you down. She may not be that big, but you get hit with enough, anyone falls.”
Helms starts to get up and the cameras then catch Jessica Lasiewicz walking out from the back and watching from the stage. She looks down as the crowd cheers a bit. Helms looks up at her and turns as Quinne starts to chirp at Lasiewicz.
Sharper: “And Jessica Lasiewicz joining us out here. She’s on the stage.”
Gold: “Maybe with Sienna Swann’s activity limited, Jessica is going to step up?”
Helms turns and walks over to the ring and Quinne steps through the ropes, trying to stomp at Helms. Helms blocks it and Quinne tries again. Helms grabs the leg and pulls her down. He then rolls into the ring. Quinne rolls over and starts to get up and Helms runs over and rolls her up with a quick inside cradle.

Quinne just getting out. The crowd ohs. Both get up and Quinne turns around to Helms who scoops her up and slams her down. Quinne starts to get up again and Helms grabs her and turns before spinning her into the corner. We then cut to a shot backstage to see Dawn Lohan watching the monitor and this match with Kordy skipping around in the background. We go back to the ring to see Helms whipping Quinne across the ring and into the opposite corner.
Sharper: “Quinne whipped across. Dawn Lohan watching this and we know she’d love a shot at the Women’s Title too.”
Gold: “Something tells me that she’s got more interest now with Lasiewicz watching too.”
Helms runs after and Quinne gets her boots up. Helms staggers back. Quinne then spins around and hits a discus forearm. She forearms Helms again and then runs into the ropes. She bounces off and goes for a flying headscissors. She hits it on Helms. Helms rolls through and gets up. Quinne turns and runs over to Helms and hits a double knee, knocking him back. Helms hits the corner. Quinne then climbs up to the middle turnbuckle, straddling Helms and nailing him with repeated forearms to the face. The crowd boos as Helms covers up and Quinne gets a few shots in before Helms shoves her back. She rolls through and gets up and runs at Helms who steps forward and hip tosses her into the corner. The crowd ohs and Quinne rolls over in pain.
Sharper: “Bad landing for Quinne. Helms with a hip toss into the turnbuckle.”
Gold: “Folded the Pint-Sized Awesomeness up.”
Sharper: “And we have more company…and Lasiewicz has noticed it.”
We cut to the stage as Harmony Fisher is now out on the stage. Jessica looks at her and Harmony looks back. They speak a bit and Harmony points down to the ring and Jessica does the same. We cut back into the ring as Helms drags Quinne up and then throws her over with a fisherman’s suplex into a bridge.

Quinne just gets her shoulder up. She rolls over as Helms gets up. Quinne gets up and Helms grabs her and pulls her up. Helms then spins her around and whips her into the ropes. Harmony and Jessica move away from one another, watching, as Quinne bounces off and Helm scoops her up, but Quinne spins through and lands behind Helms. Helms turns and Quinne jumps up and hits an enziguri kick. Helms falls to a knee. Quinne gets up and hits a dropkick to the face, knocking him back.
Sharper: “Enziguri, then a dropkick. Helms knocked down.”
Gold: “Harmony Fisher and Jessica Lasiewicz look on. They better take notes. Those quick kicks are hurting Helms here.”
Helms slowly stirs and Quinne runs into the ropes, bounces off and hits a running double-fisted facebuster. The crowd ohs. Quinne goes for the pin.

Helms gets his shoulder up. Quinne just gets up and shakes her head. She then grabs at the hair of Helms and starts to try and drag him up. Helms winces as he turns and Quinne turns and then kicks him in the ribs. She turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and goes for a flying headscissors, but Helms counters and plants her with a sitout facebuster. Quinne pops up and holds her face and turns only for Helms to then hoists her up onto his shoulders. The crowd roars. He crosses her legs and turns before planting her with the Genesis Shift. The crowd roars.
Sharper: “Helms plants the Women’s Champion!”
Gold: “She’s out! She’s just out! And look at the smile on Jessica Lasiewicz’s face!”
Helms turns and goes for the pin.

Just then, Grundy grabs the leg of Quinne and jerks her out from under Helms and right out of the ring. The crowd boos loudly as Grundy then holds Quinne up as she’s out of it. Lasiewicz just looks down and shakes her head as Harmony glares at them. El Rudo yells at Helms as Helms gets up and the referee calls for the bell.
Gold: “Come on! Come on!”
Sharper: “Grundy pulling Quinne out. She’ll lose by disqualification, but not by pinfall.”
Gold: “Oh yeah…just the shot to Helms’ pride there! He had her!”
Sharper: “And Lasiewicz, Fisher and I’m sure Dawn backstage had to have noted that.”
Helms just yells at Rudo and tells him to get into the ring. Rudo just keeps yelling at Helms as Grundy lifts Quinne up and over his shoulder as he turns and starts to carry her off. Rudo holds up the Women’s Championship in Helms face before turning and holding it up at Lasiewicz and Fisher before following Grundy as Grundy walks along the space along the rampway on the floor. Helms leans against the rope, still watching Quinne. Just then, a shot of his entrance at Rise to Greatness plays on over the screen. Strangely, his music does not play. Instead, the lights black out and Chase Holfelder's rendition of "Every Breath You Take" floods through the system. David’s demeanor shifts to confusion as the David Helms Tribute begins.
"Every step you take...
The first clip begins with David hitting a Hip Toss Piledriver on an opponent and then shows his dive off the set against Matt Auclair last year.
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
This is followed by a shot of Tommy Valentine and David Helms holding up the World Tag Team Championship belts.
I'll be watching you.."
The minor chord progression picks up, as orchestral elements accompany the song The darkness is cut by moving beams of light, basking the audience in phthalo and oxford blue.
"Every single day...
David Helms nails CHBK with a spinning heel kick. David Helms hits the Wake Up Call on Kennedy Street and Shaun Cruze with the Honesty Policy.
Every word you say
Every game you play
David Helms pins Jake Starr for the SCW World Championship.
Every night you say
I'll be watching you..."
As the final syllable ends, the music cuts and a loop of David Helms holding up the SCW World Championship plays repeatedly. The silence is interrupted as “Dead Flag Blues” by Godspeed You! Black Emperor begins to play. A muffled synth pad, ominously syncing to the repeated picture of David raising the SCW World Championship over his head, haunts the First Niagra Center.
“The car’s on fire,
and there’s no driver at the wheel,
and the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicide,
and a dark wind blows.”
The clips of David Helms become heavily contrasted, and the corners of the video appear to be burnt. The edges are black and jagged. A shot of David Helms lying on the concrete blend with darkened moments of Helms bleeding heavily from a gash on his forehead.
“The government is corrupt,
and we’re on so many drugs with the radio on and the curtains drawn.
We’re trapped in the belly of this horrible machine
and the machine is bleeding to death.”
The scenery in the video changes drastically. Rather than show David Helms, images of random faces, with bulging eyes and stressed muscles flash on the screen. Bloody hands reach up and claw at the eyes, as if trying to tear them from their sockets.
“The sun has fallen down,
and the billboards are all leering,
And the flags are all dead
at the top of their polls.
It went like this…”
The audience is saved from the finality of the faces on the screen, only to be replaced with the images of rubble. A monochrome city sits before their eyes on fire, buildings coming down on themselves. Stringed instruments join the menacing voice.
“The buildings toppled in on themselves.
Mothers clutching babies picked through the rubble
and pulled out their hair
Rather than continue showing the terrorized landscape, Helm’s person returns to view. Now, the screen shows David standing against the turnbuckles, winded. His chest heaves with each breath, and his face wears the look of defeat.
“The skyline was beautiful on fire
all twisted metal stretching upwards
everything washed in a thin orange haze.”
Color returns to the video package, highlighting the sweat on his body. The lights in the arena match the lyrics, sweeping through the fans like a fire.
I said kiss me you’re beautiful, these are truly the last days.
You grabbed my hand, and we fell into it
like a daydream, or a fever. “
With this final word, the image on the screen freezes. It is David Helms lying unconscious in the middle of the ring, face down. The strings continue to wail, and the lights blend around the arena transform from orange, back to the previous shades of blue, and finally to red. After a moment, the lights completely fade, leaving the arena in pitch black. A single red light illuminates David Helms, who looks nothing short of uncomfortable in the ring. It leaves him in darkness and creeps up the ramp and to the stage.
There, enveloped in a tangle of Nightshade, looms the Majestic Wrestling Premier Championship. The scene then slowly fades to black.
COMMERCIAL:
We return to Breakdown to see a frozen shot of David Helms standing in the ring with red hue over him. “Moments Ago” is seen at the bottom corner.
Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Moments ago, David Helms got his message from Datura.”
Gold: “After a very violent video, showing David Helms bloodied and unconscious. The Majestic Premier Championship was on the stage. A symbol from Datura, who Helms will face at Apocalypse.”
MOMENTS AGO:
A single red light illuminates David Helms, who looks nothing short of uncomfortable in the ring. It leaves him in darkness and creeps up the ramp and to the stage. There, enveloped in a tangle of Nightshade, looms the Majestic Wrestling Premier Championship. The championship is shown for a few moments before the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.
We then open up backstage to see Dawn Lohan and Red Rayne standing outside of the Blood Grove locker room.
Rayne: “You want it…don’t you.”
Dawn just smiles.
Dawn: “I want the Women’s Title. She can’t even hold it. The weight is too much for her.”
Rayne: “Then you know what you need to do. Tonight, you have the Sisterhood…make a statement…”
Dawn: “Oh we will…I’m not going to be passed over again. But Kissinger-“
Rayne just smiles.
Rayne: “I’ll worry about her. Matt will worry about her. And…”
Rayne then looks past Dawn as we see Blitzkrieg walking down the hallway with Typhoid Mary and Celeste Mallory. Blitzkrieg just walks up to Dawn. Dawn looks at her.
Blitzkrieg: “The purge begins…”
Dawn smiles. Blitzkrieg then walks past her. Typhoid Mary walks over to Dawn and Red Rayne turns to them.
Rayne: “You two should speak some.”
Rayne turns and walks off.
Sharper: “Unbelievable…the man who defeated her sister at Rise to Greatness….”
Gold: “Alexis Quinne better look out. Everyone better if Blood Grove are focusing on the Women’s Title too.”
The scene cuts away.
We then open up outside of Kennedy Street’s locker room. We see Spirit Dansby standing next to the door.
Spirit: “I am here backstage about to hope to get some comments from Kennedy Street, especially after what happened at the end of Breakdown last week.”
Spirit turns and knocks on the door. A few moments pass before the door opens. Maximillian steps out and just then, we see “Kennedy Street” rolled out. The iPad, bearing Kennedy Street’s face, while on top of a pokey, cylindrical stand, is placed next to Spirit. Spirit looks a bit shocked.
Kennedy: “I know, I know. I look more sexy and flawless than ever.”
Spirit: “Um…Kennedy…why are you on that iPad and not here in person?”
Kennedy looks at Spirit.
Kennedy: “What? You’re upset that I’m not there. After all of my sacrifices, of saving lives, of giving people a Sexy, Flawless Diva to aspire to be and being greatness into their lives…after I was BLATANTLY disrespected and slapped in the face, not only by being kicked from the ringside area last week but for not being named the World Champion when frankly, I’m the only deserving person to hold that title after I reigned!”
Kennedy looks down and Ethan is heard, yelling from the locker room.
Ethan: “Be calm. You’re still the Sexy, Flawless Diva and better than everyone by default!”
Kennedy stops, hearing it, but not fully.
Kennedy: “Carlos, honey. Could you turn me around so I could hear what Ethan said?”
Carlos spins “Kennedy” around.
Kennedy: “What was that, honey?”
Ethan: “I said that you’re still the Sexy, Flawless Diva and better than everyone!”
Kennedy: “Well obviously, but it’s good to know someone realizes it.”
Kennedy pauses.
Kennedy: “Carlos…”
Carlos then steps over and spins Kennedy around.
Kennedy: “Now, you’re wondering why I’ve taken this message to reach the masses.”
Spirit: “Well…yeah.”
Kennedy: “It should be obvious. Since this company won’t respect me, I am going to do the one thing that will devastate the masses! I will boycott the fans of SCW. I will not be saving lives. I will not be coming to SCW programming outside of this appearance here. I couldn’t completely shut myself out. The world would die! But I am going to make sure that this company realizes how important I am and until I am awarded the SCW World Championship, THIS is all you will get of Keenie! THIS is what being a Meanie to Keenie will do!”
Spirit looks stunned again as the crowd boos.
Kennedy: “Carlos!”
Carlos then comes in and grabs Kennedy and pulls her back in before turning her around and pushing her back into the locker room. Maximillian steps in after and slams the door shut. Spirit jumps a bit before looking at the door as the scene fades out.
COMMERCIAL:
‘Justice... Will Be Done’.
The lone riffs of a single guitar echo the familiar chords that herald the entrance of SCW`s peacekeeper before we hear a voice begin that fateful entrance. From the curtain emerges Merrick Wiseman. His head down, his long coat waving a little, the camera closing in for a second on the light playing on his silver Texas Ranger badge, and his hands tracing along his guns.
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive
The crowd sings along the chorus as Merrick slowly raises his head, showing his masked face. He suddenly draws one of his pistols and fires into the air and at the ring apron down the ramp as the crowd goes nuts.
As he walks down the ramp, Wiseman keeps his eyes focused on the ring and for any signs of trouble. Meanwhile, he reaches into his belt, taking out bullet after bullet and reloading his gun. Just about when he is done, he has reached the ring and loads the barrel. Wiseman pulls back the hammer and suddenly crouches down and pulls up the ring apron, pointing his gun inside.
Standing up, he twirls his gun and puts it back in the holster. He walks up the stairs. He gets into the ring and looks around. He then starts to head over to the opposite side of the ring.
Sharper: “Merrick Wiseman coming out here and last week, James Evans and his associates came out again, but we know next week on this program, James Evans and Merrick Wiseman will do battle in a cage match.”
Gold: “That should keep them out, and hopefully Merrick can get some justice, but James Evans is definitely not going to go down without a fight and he’s damn pissed off.”
Wiseman is handed a microphone and he turns and walks back over to the middle of the ring. He then looks around before returning to the middle of the ring.
Wiseman: “Before I start, I just wanted to thank Tommy Valentine for showing that he’s at least got some integrity in a sport that seems to have less and less of it. You didn’t have to help me, and yet you did. For that I thank you.”
Wiseman pauses for a moment as the crowd cheers.
Wiseman: “But James, you and I are not yet finished. See, next week, on Breakdown, we’re going to surround this ring in a steel cage. We’re going to put you and I inside of it and we are going to settle this and I am going to give you the punishment you deserve for all of your disdain for the rules of SCW. This isn’t your playground to do as you wish and this is not where you are going to get away with bringing in paid help because you refuse to prove you can get it done on your own! You’re going to have to next week on Breakdown and James…I am going to make sure you not only fall short, but you reconsider every decision you’ve made since you’ve been granted your return to SCW!”
Wiseman looks out as the crowd cheers.
Wiseman: “You are going to find out that you’re not owed anything except justice by hand.”
Wiseman looks up as the crowd cheers some more.
Wiseman: “But that’s next week. I know that some may have a problem with me picking fights, but justice never stops and I will not stop until I am unable to deliver that justice. But last week, while I was recovering from James Evans’ cowardly attack, I saw something that frankly, was unnecessary and at this point, needs to be dealt with. I saw Celestia Lockeheart demand her opportunity at retribution, retribution that frankly will come to her at some point if she gets her hands on Alexis Quinne, but I then saw Blitzkrieg come to this ring, with Typhoid Mary, with the Blood Grove and they slammed her, bloodied her and left her unconscious and for their own pathetic means of showing dominance. Well, Blitzkrieg, I want to start with you! I want the monster and I will make you realize that just because you are big and violent, it does not mean you can set back people’s careers because of the messes the rest of Blood Grove get into!”
The crowd roars.
Gold: “He’s calling out Blitzkrieg!”
Sharper: “Oh boy…”
Wiseman: “I am not afraid of the monster. I am not afraid of Typhoid Mary. I am not afraid of Blood Grove because when you have to do the right thing, there’s no room to be afraid. So you want to go after her, then you can come after me!”
The opening piano for “Blitzkrieg” by Deathstars begins to bellow out from the P.A system capturing the SCW universe's attention. The crowd roars and boos as we see Blitzkrieg walk out from the back. Typhoid Mary is with him and Celeste Mallory is on his other side. Blitzkrieg starts to make his way to the ring. The crowd roars. Blitzkrieg reaches the ring and Wiseman just gets ready. Blitzkrieg hops onto the apron. He then enters the ring and steps forward and Wiseman nails him with a hard right. The crowd roars. Wiseman nails him again and again. Typhoid Mary looks on from the floor with Celeste Mallory. Just then, the crowd boos as we see Matt Auclair, with the SCW Underground Championship, and Red Rayne, with her Adrenaline Championship.
Sharper: “Blitzkrieg and Wiseman going at it. But we have some additional reinforcements.”
Gold: “And this can’t be because of Wiseman getting some sort of advantage.”
Sharper: “Oh no. This is to send a message. The Purge. Blood Grove smells blood. They smell an opportunity for another victim!”
Wiseman nails Blitzkrieg again and then backs up and goes for a clothesline, but Blitzkrieg knees him in the ribs. Wiseman staggers back. Blitzkrieg then runs into the ropes to the side and bounces off before nailing Wiseman with a boot. Wiseman falls over and down to the mats. Auclair then reaches the ring and Red Rayne heads over and stops him. Red Rayne then looks up at Blitzkrieg as Mary looks on and smiles. She just nods. Auclair steps off.
Gold: “They’re hanging back.”
Sharper: “Boot to Wiseman. I think Rayne, Auclair, Mary…they’re going to let Blitzkrieg take out Wiseman and then they’ll do their bloodletting!”
Blitzkrieg walks around and Wiseman stirs. Blitzkrieg grabs Wiseman and pulls him up and shoves him back. Wiseman falls back to the corner. Blitzkrieg then forearms him in the jaw and then again. Wiseman throws a punch at the jaw of Blitzkrieg. Blitzkrieg forearms him and Wiseman nails him again before the crowd roars and we see Stacy Kissinger running out from the back. Adrenaline Rush are also with them. Auclair turns and Kissinger runs over and nails Red Rayne from behind. She falls over and into the apron. The crowd cheers. Mary turns and Craig Thomas heads over at Auclair. The two of them start to trade some shots. Tucker runs to Mary. Mary ducks and Tucker jumps to the apron and backflips over and into Typhoid Mary. The crowd cheers.
Gold: “There you go! Adrenaline Rush! Stacy Kissinger! Back up here for Wiseman!”
Sharper: “And Blitzkrieg working over Wiseman, but he’s turned his attention!”
Blitzkrieg turns away and heads over to the ropes near them and kicks at Thomas. Thomas staggers back. Wiseman then runs up behind him and jumps up nailing him with the Superman Punch. Blitzkrieg falls through the ropes and to the floor. The crowd roars. He rolls over. Kissinger throws Red Rayne back and yells at Thomas and Tucker. She turns and rolls into the ring as Thomas manages to get away from Auclair and roll in. Tucker does too, looking around. Wiseman then watches them as Red Rayne gets up, fuming. Auclair turns and starts to head to the ring, but stops as Blitzkrieg slowly gets up.
Sharper: “Wiseman, Kissinger and Adrenaline Rsuh have the ring! Blood Grove on the floor, fuming!”
Gold: “And look at them! They’re ready to fight!”
Sharper: “And I’m being told, the SCW Underground Title match will be next when we return! Auclair defends against Kissinger! Next!”
The scene slowly fades to black.
COMMERCIAL:
Stacy Kissinger vs. Matt Auclair
SCW Underground Championship
The bell rings. Kissinger looks quite jumpy as she throws punches into the air, getting herself fired up, though with what happened before the break, that isn’t hard. Auclair meanwhile, it has seen that he’s back in the ring. The SCW Underground Championship is over at the timekeeper’s station. Red Rayne stands guard in that area. Celeste Mallory, Typhoid Mary and Blitzkrieg all stand on that side of the ring, as if in lumberjack match positions. On the opposite side of the ring down on the floor are Merrick Wiseman, Craig Thomas and Tyler Tucker, who looks extremely nervous with being down at ringside. He has his eyes all over the place, while all the others pay attention to what’s about to happen inside the ring.
Sharper: “After what we saw happen going into the break, this is a pretty tense situation.”
Gold: “No kidding. This is basically now a lumberjack match, only the “lumberjacks” should NOT be involved.”
Sharper: “I’m sure the referee will toss anyone that needs to be tossed, Jay.”
Gold: “During my in-ring career here in SCW, the referees did usually do a good job of that. But that Aaron Demitra’s been pretty shady these past couple of years with some of his officiating decisions.”
Sharper: “He doesn’t have this match, as you can see.”
Gold: “One positive, I guess. But anyways, let’s just hope for as clean of a championship match as we can get here.”
Stacy takes a few steps towards Auclair and just stares a hole into him with her eyes, showing that she isn’t scared at all. Auclair kind of brushes her off, but then lunges forward, delivering a punch that scores with Stacy’s abdomen. Stacy doubles over and feels where the punch was just thrown, but she doesn’t fall down. She gets right back up just as Auclair goes to throw another punch. Stacy this time blocks it and then executes a kick that connects with the left side of Auclair. She then delivers another and another, in an attempt to knock down Auclair. Little damage is done, so Stacy turns and bounces herself off the ropes. She runs herself towards Auclair, but Auclair easily sidesteps her before grabbing at Stacy’s hair and just throwing her into the opposite ring ropes. Auclair then backs up, turns partially and pushes Stacy into a corner of the ring.
It is here that Auclair simply whips her over into the next corner, Stacy’s back banging against the turnbuckle. This causes Stacy to lunge forward a little and Auclair hits a running knee, which stands Stacy back up in the corner. The crowd boos Auclair, while a glimpse of a sadistic smile from Red Rayne can be seen in the background.
Sharper: “Red Rayne, already loving this.”
Gold: “Probably hoping that Stacy Kissinger is purged here tonight by Matt Auclair, so she doesn’t have to get her hands dirty.”
Sharper: “You mean quote on quote “purged”, being they did not get rid of Celestia Lockeheart last week.”
Gold: “Yeah, pretty much. I guess to Red Rayne and the rest of Blood Grove, it’s just the symbolism that makes it a supposed purge, when really no one is actually being eliminated from SCW.”
While Auclair has Kissinger set up in the corner, he deflates her with a few stomps to the chest. Stacy drops down in an attempt to block, so Matt then grabs at Stacy’s arm and delivers one last stomp that kind of devastates Kissinger, leaving her limp in the corner. The referee tells Auclair to back off, which he shockingly does. The referee checks on Stacy and Stacy does still have her eyes open. Despite being stunned, she gives the referee the thumbs-up and then with her hands now free, she pulls herself up in the corner.
Sharper: “Somehow Stacy has survived that onslaught.”
Auclair hungrily sets up in the far opposite corner. As Stacy gets all the way up Auclair goes for a gore, but Kissinger moves her body in enough time and as Auclair flashes by her, she Pele kicks him in the back, sending Auclair’s head into the turnbuckle post, in between the second and third ropes.
Gold: “Bad move by Auclair there! Stacy with the heads-up to get out of the way. That will even the score.”
Kissinger waits for the Underground Champion to get his head out of the ropes and for him to turn back around. It’s now that Kissinger goes to strike. Using some strength, she is able to lift Auclair up a little bit and drop him down with an atomic drop. It doesn’t have full effect, but it’s enough of a distraction for Stacy to climb up to the top of the nearest turnbuckle. She wastes no time in flying off with a breathtaking corkscrew moonsault, which is able to put Auclair down on the mat!
The crowd cheers. Stacy shakes out her own cobwebs and turns and hooks one of Auclair’s legs, sitting down on his chest for a cover.
1!
2!
Auclair kicks out, sending Kissinger a few feet from him. The crowd kind of deflates. Blood Grove looks a little nervous, but they seem to calm down. Tyler Tucker on the other side of the ring has finally begun to pay more attention to the match and claps for Stacy. Meanwhile Red Rayne’s voice booms above all, telling Auclair to stop playing with the Songbird and that it’s time to get serious.
Auclair listens to her and gets up. Kissinger does as well. Kissinger immediately goes for a lariat, but at the same time Auclair goes for one as well. Auclair’s ends up being stronger and it puts Kissinger down to the mat hard, so hard that her legs flail into the air before falling back to the mat.
Gold: “Ooh, both we’re thinking the same thing there, Adam.”
Sharper: “Yes, and unfortunately for Stacy, Matt Auclair is obviously stronger than her.”
Kissinger goes to pick herself up, but Auclair gets back on the attack. He drops his elbow down on the back of Kissinger. Kissinger sturdies herself however and spins partially around, delivering a punch to Auclair’s gut. That does virtually nothing as Auclair doesn’t even teeter. Auclair drops another elbow down, and then a third. This one gets Kissinger to drop to a knee. Red Rayne again is heard, this time just yelling out “REDRUM!”
Gold: “Seriously? That’s annoying.”
Sharper: “You’re just figuring that out now Jay?”
Blitzkrieg seems to listen to Red Rayne though as he takes one step closer to the ring apron. On the other side, Merrick Wiseman does likewise once he sees what Blitzkrieg has done.
Gold: “An attack by Blood Grove would not be advised, as there is plenty of man power on the other side of the ring out here.”
Sharper: “They are one short.”
Auclair is about to drop another knee, but Kissinger drops down and rolls away, inadvertently towards the side where Blood Grove is standing. Auclair closes in on her and Red Rayne smiles evilly.
Sharper: “I’m sure they won’t care if this match ends in a way it shouldn’t end either, with Stacy Kissinger incapacitated.”
Blitzkrieg looks like he’s about to enter the ring, when "Hell & Consequences" by Stone Sour begins to play as the lights in the arena flash blue and white in beat to the music. A video plays on the SCWtron with highlights of some of Amy Chastaine's best spots. It doesn’t take her but a few seconds to appear and hightail it down the ramp. The crowd cheers and Red Rayne tells Blitzkrieg to back down, for now.
Gold: “Things are evened up now Sharper! But this is a bit of a surprise, being Amy faces Stacy at Apocalypse!”
Sharper: “Not really, as the two seem to have reconciled and are just looking to put on a great match against one another, possibly with the Underground Championship on the line.”
Gold: “Either way, things have gotten a bit more interesting, that’s for sure!”
Chastaine guards the side of the ring that’s closest to the entrance ramp, basically standing in between Blood Grove and the group containing Merrick Wiseman and Adrenaline Rush. She keeps her eyes on both groupings and on the ring as well.
Kissinger pulls herself up and sees Chastaine from out of the corner of her eye. She just gives her a quick thumbs-up before she throws herself at Auclair, trying to get him off-balance. The first attempt doesn’t do much, but when she goes to be a battering ram again, the second attempt gets him to stagger some. She goes for it a third time, but Auclair stops her and whips her off the ring ropes on the Blood Grove side of the ring. Kissinger’s momentum carries her forward, but she is able to drop down and slide towards the good side of the ring. She stays inside the ring though. Auclair turns around and goes to connect with a fatal diving punch, but again Stacy drops down and avoids the contact. From behind she grabs Auclair and actually attempts to get him over with a suplex, but she can’t get him high enough into the air. So she instead reaches her arms up and locks them around Auclair’s neck. Auclair elbows Kissinger one time to get her off of him, but it’s not enough as Stacy connects with a spinning neckbreaker. Auclair collapses to the canvas and Kissinger hastily goes to roll him over for a pinfall attempt. She is able to push him over.

Auclair kicks out and immediately begins to come to his feet. He angrily swats an arm right at the left side of Stacy, which brings Stacy crashing down to the mat, which is followed by boos from the fans. Auclair doesn’t care and he snatches up Stacy. He sets her up the way he wants and then holds her up into the air, right in front of him, as if she’s a doll. Red Rayne is quickly shown licking her chops, before Auclair delivers a release German suplex. Stacy flies through the air and her back hits a corner turnbuckle.
Sharper: “Oh good lord, Stacy was thrown like a lawn dart right there!”
Gold: “I bet Knots would be loving this, if he were here.”
Sharper: “Thanks for taking his place by the way on such short notice.”
Gold: “It’s only a 4 hour drive west on the Thruway for me. It’s worth it.”
Auclair, even despite Stacy hurting scoops her up and delivers a SECOND release German suplex. It’s not as devastating as the first as Stacy only lands flat on her back on the canvas this time. But still Stacy is down. Auclair simply comes over and covers Stacy, quite lackadaisically, believing he has this one won.

Stacy kicks out, being that Auclair hasn’t hooked her legs up or anything. Auclair doesn’t seem outraged or incensed though. He instead goes to dissect Kissinger some more. Auclair scoops her up and just simply drops her with a sidewalk slam. Kissinger does move a bit after she’s back down on the canvas, but not much.
Sharper: “This isn’t looking good for Stacy at all here.”
Gold: “No, it’s not.”
The crowd starts slowly clapping, trying to get Stacy to get back and fight Auclair once again. She hears them but is struggling to get back up to her feet. Auclair doesn’t want to wait anymore. He grabs Stacy and hurdles her right over the top rope and out to the floor, on the side of the ring where Wiseman and Adrenaline Rush stand. They back up some, not getting involved. Tyler shouts to Stacy, asking her if she’s okay, but she doesn’t respond. Auclair stands tall above Kissinger and sneers towards Tucker, before he reaches down, picks Kissinger up and then rams her back right into the ring post, while Typhoid Mary has the referee’s attention on the other side of the ring, as she is up on the apron. Auclair holds onto Kissinger and rams her into the ring post again, before sending her back into the ring. Wiseman and Thomas both snap at Auclair, but he ignores them and slides back into the ring as well.
This makes things more antsy at ringside as both groups eyeball one another. Amy Chastaine is shown holding up her hands to both sides, trying to cool the situation some.
Gold: “I don’t think Chastaine is helping matters with doing that.”
Sharper: “No, probably not.”
Auclair gets up in the ring and stalks Kissinger, who has begun to somehow come to her feet after the punishment she’s taken. Even though she’s teetering, she goes to chop out Auclair’s legs from under him. She actually successfully does so, and Auclair crashes to the canvas, but grazing Kissinger on the way down. Both are now down on the canvas. Typhoid Mary drops down on her side and the referee turns and sees both down, but both stirring. He doesn’t even bother to begin a 10 count as Kissinger and Auclair both get up to their knees. Kissinger partially stands and slides over to deliver something she rarely does, a face sit, but Auclair has nothing of it, pushing Kissinger away with his big hands. Kissinger rolls to the nearest corner and then stands up. Auclair comes partially up now and Kissinger gets a running start before jumping up, grabbing Auclair by the head, and hitting The American Kiss. Auclair’s head doesn’t bounce off the canvas or anything, but he has down. The crowd is shocked, but also cheering for the feat that Stacy just pulled off.
Sharper: “She’s coming back from the depths of the dead here.”
Gold: “That may have been one of her most emphatic bulldogs of her entire career, even if Auclair’s head didn’t bounce off that mat!”
The crowd cheers her on as Stacy hops onto the nearest second rope. Auclair begins to get up. Stacy comes off the middle rope with the High Note flying elbow. It hits Auclair square in the back of the head. This dazes Auclair a little more, but doesn’t knock him down. Stacy goes back over to a corner and scales up to the top rope this time. She waits for a few moments, breathes a few times before taking flight, going to unleash a 450 splash that could possibly deflate the air out of the bigger Auclair’s lungs, finally.
However as she floats down in the air, Auclair turns and catches her, powerslamming her right to the mat. The crowd ohs as Red Rayne yells out “REDRUM!” again at ringside. Auclair looks exhausted as he just aimlessly drops down near Kissinger’s legs. He hooks them up and then drives his forearm right into the shoulder blades of Kissinger, keeping her down. Kissinger’s legs are wriggling in Auclair’s arms as she’s attempting to kick out.

The referee calls for the bell as Kissinger kicks out just 1 second too late. Red Rayne snatches the SCW Underground Championship from the timekeeper’s table and slides into the ring. She just sits their hungrily as both Auclair and Kissinger are spent. The cameras at ringside hear Red Rayne say “It’s time to purge. Mary!!!”
Typhoid Mary goes over to the timekeeper’s table now and grabs the ring bell.
Sharper: “Oh no.”
Gold: “No. We’re not seeing this.”
Jay Gold takes off his headset, but Tyler Tucker has already slid into the ring, quite jittery looking. Typhoid Mary slides in the ring bell, but Stacy Kissinger has rolled the other way. She is beginning to get up, as is Matt Auclair. Auclair however rolls out of the ring. Red Rayne grabs the ring bell, but sees the numbers are not in her favor, especially with Auclair being tired. Red Rayne thinks better of it and rolls out of the ring. The referee gains control of the ring bell as Blood Grove begins to depart, with the SCW Underground Championship and Matt Auclair in tow.
Sharper: “From the looks of things, there is nothing to worry about. There will be no purge on Stacy Kissinger. At least not tonight.”
Gold puts his headset back on and replies to Sharper.
Gold: “Good thing, because I for one won’t stand for anyone getting attacked. I went through enough of those myself in my career.”
Tyler Tucker looks to be asking Stacy if she’s okay, in his usual caffeine-induced way. Stacy half-smiles and nods, and even though she is not the SCW Underground Champion, “Fight Song” by Rachel Platten plays as Stacy Kissinger, Tyler Tucker and the rest around ringside all just glare at Blood Grove taking their leave.
Sharper: “That was a very tense situation that could have ended far worse. Thankfully for Stacy Kissinger, it has ended just about as good as it could for her.”
Gold: “But Matt Auclair is still the Underground Championship. Blood Grove has lost nothing.”
Sharper: “But they have gained nothing either. Think of that as a positive.”
Gold: “I guess.”
The scene inside the arena fades out with both sides just sizing one another up.

The scene cuts to the inside of the First Niagara Center in Buffalo, New York. Pyro shoots from both ends of the stage and towards the middle before back out to the outside and then all across the stage. Spotlights circle around the arena as the camera pan throughout the arena, showing the many fans who have filed into the arena standing and cheering, waving banners, signs, t-shirt and whatever else they have. The cameras pan for a few moments before cutting to ringside to return to Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at the announce table.
Sharper: “Welcome back here to Breakdown. Shawn Winters joining me, Adam Sharper, here at ringside. Much more still to come tonight including our main event seeing Syren and Vixen Cain clashing.”
Winters: “And we’re going to hear from Ravyn Taylor. We’re also going to see some tag action and Selena Frost will be in action against Joanna Jane Tarzanna, right now!”
Selena Frost vs. Joanna Jane Tarzanna
"BELIEVE IT!"
At the sound of the familiar call, the true-believers are immediately on their feet in cheers as "What I Believe" by Skillet brings forth a barrage purple-blue lights in the design of snowflakes across the arena. From the back, out walks The Snow Queen, herself, Selena Frost. With a twirl amongst the lights and snowflakes, Frost slowly strolls down the ramp, her platinum-white hair in a long-braid swishing this way and that.
Looking around the arena, Selena smiles at the voice of her true-believers before sliding into the ring. Inside, the Winter Diamond is quickly on her feet, stepping into the center of the ring as all the snowflake-lights rush to form a large blue-white snowflake-shaped light over Selena. Raising her arms, the Defier of Worlds looks up at the lights before they return to normal.
Sharper: “Earlier tonight we saw Joanna Jane Tarzanna approach Selena Frost. She’s been making sure that Selena gets to this match, this special challenge match here tonight.”
Winters: “Probably a good thing with Blood Grove looking for blood and we already heard from Chris Cannon earlier. Clearly she’s angered a few people.”
Joanna enters from behind the curtain as “Roar” by Katy Perry plays. Joanna bangs her chest and lets out a loud roar as she runs to the ring. Joanna looks at Selena Frost and starts to circle the outside of the ring, stalking her prey, like a jungle cat would. She then enters the ring and climbs the ropes, banging her chest again before facing her opponent. Selena and Joanna lock eyes. Joanna starts to pace in her corner.
Sharper: “Joanna ready to go. Selena ready too.”
Winters: “She’s just pacing. She’s waiting for that bell. This is a match she wanted.”
The bell sounds and Joanna steps up with her arms up. Selena watches her and Joanna keeps moving forward being the aggressor to start. She lunges and goes to nail Selena. Selena takes a shot and Joanna goes for another right, but Selena blocks it and grabs the arm. She then tries to force her down, but Joanna, being the bigger one, blocks it and grabs Selena and throws her out of the corner. Selena rolls through and gets up. Joanna goes to grab her again, but Selena kicks her in the thigh. Joanna winces and Selena forearms her. She then kicks her in the thigh again. Joanna goes for a hard right, but Selena ducks and kicks her in the thigh and then grabs her arm. She turns and goes to whip her into the ropes, but Joanna spins through and sends Selena in. Selena bounces off and Joanna goes to grab her, but Selena slides underneath. Joanna turns and Selena jumps up and hits a dropkick. Joanna falls back to the corner. She then looks up and slowly pulls herself up.
Sharper: “Selena Frost is right now hotter than most and she’s showing it. She’s locked in.”
Winters: “But she’s moving quick and expending a lot of energy to get Joanna down. This is a different situation for her. Joanna is much bigger than her.”
Joanna gets up and Selena moves in and forearms her. She forearms her again but Joanna shoves her back. Selena falls over and gets back up. She gets up and Joanna pulls herself up and steps forward. Selena moves at her and goes for a kick. Joanna catches it and then shoves her back. Selena lands on her back and rolls over.

Joanna grabs her and hooks her up before hip tossing her out of the corner. Selena hits hard back first and starts to get up. She moves over to the opposite corner and Joanna runs at her and jumps up and goes for a splash. Selena moves out of the way and Joanna crashes into the corner. Selena spins through and rolls her up with a school boy attempt.

Joanna kicks out. Both women start to get up.
Sharper: “Selena showing her quickness, getting out of the way as Joanna looked to end this early with a big avalanche in the corner.”
Winters: “And Selena’s finding that out too. She’s aggressive and that’s bad for her. Joanna had a plan!”
Joanna turns to Selena and Selena kicks her in the ribs. She then hits a forearm and jumps up and hits another dropkick. Joanna hits the mat. She starts to get up and Selena gets up too and runs into the ropes. Joanna turns to her and Selena hits a flying clothesline. She goes for the pin.

Sharper: “There’s that strength advantage. Joanna Jane Tarzanna hoisting Selena up and slamming her with authority.”
Winters: “She’s feeling it. May have knocked the wind out of her. At least for Selena, if she does get that Adrenaline Title shot against Rayne, this is a bit similar with Rayne’s strength.”
Selena starts to get up and Joanna scoops her up and drops her over her knees with a backbreaker. She then goes for the pin.

Joanna gets to the top rope and looks down at Selena before diving off with a headbutt right to the ribs of Selena. The crowd ohs. Joanna goes for another pin.

Selena gets her shoulder up. Joanna turns and grabs at the arm and tries to go for it, turning into a side mount.
Sharper: “Joanna throwing some new curveball. Headbutt off the top not enough.”
Winters: “She’s going for the head.”
Sharper: “May be thinking about that Anaconda Vyse. She’s been known to use it.”
Winters: “How the hell would you know?”
Sharper: “I did my research, Shawn.”
Joanna keeps fighting with Selena, but Selena blocks it and manages to turn and grab at the arm of Joanna. She then starts to try and scissor Joanna’s arm.

Sharper: “Selena trying to up the pace here. That should be in her favour.”
Winters: “But she’s going to leave herself open. Joanna has done a great job making Selena have to leave her feet to get her down. Each time you do that, you’re leaving yourself open.”
Joanna gets up and Selena gets up too. She hits a back kick to the ribs on Joanna. She then turns and runs into the ropes again. She bounces off and Joanna steps forward, but Selena ducks a clothesline.

The crowd cheers and Selena rolls off. She then leans to her side and takes a few breaths. Selena starts to get up and has her arm raised.
Sharper: “Selena Frost with the hard fought victory. Back and forth and Selena Frost successfully turns back the challenge of Joanna Jane Tarzanna!”
Winters: “And Selena found another way to get that win. I think she thought the Dragonrana would do it. Tarzanna fought off the landing and Selena didn’t panic. She’s grown a lot. I hate to say it…but people may want to believe.”
Sharper: “She’s still waiting to hear about the Adrenaline Championship…and wait! It’s Cannon!”
We then see Chris Cannon slide into the ring, having come from the back. Joanna starts to get up and Cannon grabs her and quickly shoves her to the floor. Selena then turns and sees Cannon. She runs over to him and goes to nail him, but Cannon blocks it and shoves her back. Selena gets her footing before Cannon rushes at her and drills her with C4. The crowd ohs and Selena hits the mat, holding her ribs. She then rolls over. Cannon gets up and looks at her before yelling at her.
Cannon: “It’s my shot. Not yours! Learn your place!”
The official steps over and tries to get him back. Cannon just glares at Selena as he backs up.
Sharper: “Cannon with the spear…clearly a shot at Selena for her challenge to Red Rayne.”
Winters: “Well great and all. But go after Rayne! Rayne’s the one that accepted!”
Sharper: “It’s Monarchy. I’m not surprised by any of their tactics.”
Winters: “And look out! Joanna!”
Joanna enters the ring and goes at Cannon. Cannon backs away and exits the ring as Joanna lunges at him. Cannon backs up and looks at her before turning back to Selena. Joanna winces, holding her jaw and then looks back at Cannon. Cannon starts to walk around the ring as the crowd boos him.
“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play. The Breakdown logo starts to play as we cut backstage to see Ravyn Taylor, with the SCW United States Championship over her shoulder, starting to walk down the hallway. The crowd cheers seeing her.
Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor no doubt heard Kelcey Wallace open tonight’s program. What is she going to say in rebuttal?”
Winters: “Something tells me that it’s not going to be nice.”
Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor will join us here on Breakdown, next!”
The scene fades to black.
COMMERCIAL:
The cameras are backstage in the interview area where Jessica Winters waits for her next person to interview. Jessica holds some papers in her hands looking over the schedule. She has a conversation with the camera man.
Jessica: It doesn’t look like we have anyone showing up right now for something. So you can take 5 minute break.
Camera Man: Aright I’ll get a bottle of water, do you want one?
Jessica: Sure and thanks.
The camera man walks away, but leaves the camera rolling and Jessica still looks over her papers and studies her questions. That is when Katie Steward is seen running over to Jessica in a panick. Katie taps Jessica on the shoulder getting her attention. Jessica looks at an out of breath Katie.
Jessica: Katie, are you ok?
Katie: No, I’m not ok. It’s been a week and I haven’t heard a thing. Do you know anything that is going on?
Jessica: About who? Who are you talking about?
Katie Steward: Ugh Sienna Swam. Last week she suffered an injury and I haven’t heard anything about it. Wait, hold on…
Katie brings up her smart phone she’s holding and checks her twitter feed.
Katie: Oh she suffered a micro-fracture to her ankle. I don’t know why I didn’t think of checking twitter. I guess I thought it was just for checking Selena Frost’s fiancé twitter to see how magical those two fairy tale is going. I’m sorry for bothering you.
Jessica: Right. Katie just stop it. You’re not fooling anyone. You already knew what happen with Sienna.
Katie: Uh excuse you, I can fool anyone. I’m an actress. I could’ve been right there with Sienna and Regan at Rise to Greatness, but they chose to abandon me and last week they continue to avoid answering any of my questions.
Jessica: And shoving Sienna off the stage did what for you?
Katie: *laughs* Right because I so wanted to do that. I don’t want to hurt Sienna or Regan. Even though they hurt me worst at Rise to Greatness. Sienna might be out for a month, but I’m still the one that shows up with what they did hanging over my head. Don’t forget that they aren’t innocent in this.
Katie turns away from Jessica and throws her blonde hair over her shoulder and leaves the interview area.
Darkness engulfs the arena as we hear the eerie sound of something tapping against glass. After a few moments there comes a whisper in the sound of a woman’s voice of one short, iconic word – “NEVERMORE”. With that we hear the opening from “Open Your Eyes” by Guano Apes.
“Hide your face forever
Dream and search forever-ever-ever-ever”
The song gets stuck on the word, and is then interrupted by the deep sound of the voice of Marilyn Manson.
“Just lay your head in daddy’s lap
You’re a bad girl!”
“Bad Girl” by Avril Lavigne hits the PA system as the lights come back up and we see the screens playing images of Ravyn Taylor’s various antics in and out of the ring. After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn steps out on to the stage with a smirk on her face. She’s dressed in her “Quoth the Champion” t-shirt. She just continues to smirk, looking around, the SCW United States Championship over her shoulder. She stops on the stage, twirling for the camera almost mockingly.
Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy
After a few moments she starts to make her way down to ringside and then steps up the ring steps, wiping her feet on the apron before vaulting over the top turnbuckle and rolling back to her feet. She walks over to the far corner of the ring, stepping on to the middle turnbuckle, looking down at herself with a look of admiration before stepping off the turnbuckle again. She walks across the ring and is handed a microphone by Jason Phillips. She takes it before turning and dropping to a seated position in the corner.
Winters: “Think that new t-shirt isn’t going to get some attention.”
Sharper: “Clearly sending her own message. To be clear, she is still the US Champion, but there are a fair amount of people who think she should be holding that World Title and I tend to side there.”
Ravyn looks around as her music fades out. She takes a deep breath and calmly scans the arena.
Ravyn: “Kelcey…you’re starting to show the wrinkles. People forget that arrogance takes effort. You need to make people believe. Confidence doesn’t. I don’t need to drag out my ex-boyfriend’s World Championship just to firstly make myself feel all warm and fuzzy inside, although, I’m sure Syren will let me borrow one of hers if I get cold at night. Then again, I do already have my US Title.”
Ravyn smirks.
Ravyn: “And while you’re running around with the old version of the SCW Title to make people buy into that you should be the World Champion, I’m going to just prove it by taking everything away from you, just like you took that moment…that moment where I was going to hold the World Championship, a title that no one ever thought I’d hold…a title that no one ever thought I’d even be able to challenge for. And instead, that was taken from me. You can call it foolish that I wanted no disqualification or countout, but let’s face it Kelcey, with Trinity in your ear, neither one of you will ever shut up unless I make it certain that I pinned you in the middle of the ring.”
Ravyn stops and holds her finger up.
Ravyn: “Plus, let’s face it. We all know that you’re probably breathing a bit easier as is. It’s one on one. You don’t need to worry about the shadows. Being…tripped up.”
Ravyn smirks before pulling herself up to her feet.
Ravyn: “Don’t want that to happen. But this way, at least one of us is going to get exactly what we want. Either I’m going to end your unpinned, unsubmitted streak since you came here…or you finally have to beat me without any help. I don’t doubt that you could do it. I just know that you wouldn’t if you had the option. You proved that at Rise to Greatness with how desperate you were to hold the World Title. You’re showing it again tonight. A real champion would’ve thrown CHBK’s title down and waited to hold the real thing. I’m not even going to get into attacking announcers, because that’s a sure fire way to show how dominant and intimidating you are.”
Ravyn rolls her eyes before turning to the main camera.
Ravyn: “No Kelcey, you’re going to have to face someone that is going to outsmart you and who wants to do nothing more than show how imperfect you are in front of the world. I said when I led up to Rise to Greatness, I wanted a challenge. I’m still waiting for it. And in the process, I can’t wait until I step over you Kelcey and finally touch the SCW World Championship, holding it over my head…and over your downed body as you realize that for everything you’ve sold off of yourself, it wasn’t worth it. You can talk about everything you’ve been through and oh yeah, Silas Mason is a real jackass. But at least with him, people would’ve blamed him and felt sorry for you. Now…they’re just going to love it when I end your streak and your title hopes in one swift blow!”
Ravyn looks around. The crowd yells out her catchphrase with her.
Ravyn: “Quoth the CHAMPION…nevermore!”
Ravyn then looks out at the crowd. She smirks as “Bad, Bad Girl” starts to play. She continues to just listen to the crowd.
Sharper: “We figured she wouldn’t be nice about it and wasn’t.”
Winters: “Kelcey Wallace thinks she’s owed this and well-“
Sharper: “After her comments on Twitter, it’s clear that she’s not the person anyone thought she was. Either that or Trinity Street is far more manipulative than we thought. Either way, high stakes at Apocalypse.”
Winters: “Kelcey and Ravyn both can go. But who’s going to walk away the Champion at Apocalypse. They have to beat the other. No flukes in this one.”
Ravyn Taylor continues to enjoy the reaction in the ring before slowly turning and starting to make her exit. Her music continues to play throughout the arena.

Winters: “So true right now, we’ve had some matches added to the card already and you can bet your ass that we’re going to see a hell of a lot more.”
Sharper: “Which if you look at our next match, could very well be worthy of Pay-Per-View! Because in just a few short minutes you get to watch two multi time champions go head to head in Tommy Valentine and Rachel Foxx-Frost.”
Winters: “And Tommy Valentines only saving grace right now is that there are no additional stipulations to this match, it’s a straight shooter, no Underground rules which let’s be honest is Rachel’s speciality.”
Sharper: “Indeed it is, and let’s not forget the two aspects of the match which both Valentine and Foxx will have in the back of their minds, James Evans and of course Red Rayne’s, Blood Grove.”
Winters: “And with that finally said and giving me a shiver down my spine, let’s head to the ring where Jason Phillips is waiting for the first of the two introductions!”
All eyes begin to focus on the ring, as the Buffalo crowd erupts into a sea of cheers. Phillips slowly walks to the center of the ring and smiles before raising the microphone.
Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman! The following contest is scheduled for one fall and has a twenty minute time limit! Introducing first, he hails from Raleigh, North Carolina and weighed in tonight at two-hundred and five pounds... TOMMY VALENTINE!!”
The arena's lights cut out completely, plunging the whole room into darkness for several seconds before the screens light up to display a countdown.
THOMAS VALENTINE WILL BLOW THE
ROOF OFF IN

NOW!
The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that reverberates round the arena, a shot of Thomas in various poses is shown before reverting to the blackness until the next pulse that sounds like a bass drum beat with increasing volume until a final shot of him holding the SCW Title aloft after winning the match at Taking Hold Of The Flame is Shown and remains until two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Darkest Of Kin" by Maylene And The Sons Of Disaster, hits.
Sharper: “Tommy Valentine is a former World Champion, former Tag Champion, former Under ground Champion as well. He has had one hell of a career here in SCW, one he can look back on and be proud of.”
Winters: “You make it sound like he’s hanging up his boots next, when that is David Helms! But I agree he has had a great career here, and it appears a return to form is on the cards after picking up that huge win at Rise to Greatness.”
The lights finally flicker back on and Thomas Valentine can now be seen on top of the arena's ramp in a set of shades with a custom logo on the lens, as he looks out into the audience that are now cheering loudly, chanting his name in some cases. He stops and smiles a little before spinning around away from the fans and holding his arms outwards before making a beckoning motion with his hands, fireworks shoot out at the top of the ramp again in a burst before he spins one hundred and eighty degrees and resumes walking down to the ring again.
Sharper: “He had an impressive showing at Rise to Greatness, but tonight this is a straight up match between two top tier talents of the SCW Roster.”
Winters: “Couldn’t agree more Adam, Rachel Foxx is a woman you cannot take lightly, and Valentine knows that.”
As he walks past the barrier he looks out into the crowds and goes to high five as many fans as possible before moving on down the ramp, revelling in their adoration and cheers before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, making beckoning gestures again before smiling at all the fans in the crowds. He jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles before standing still in the centre, cranking his neck. Thomas then takes the sunglasses off and hands them to the referee, telling him to keep them safe before waiting for his opponent...
Phillips: “And his opponent... She hails from...”
The lights in the arena go dark as “Take me to Church” by Hozier plays through the dark arena.
As the bass line comes in, white strobes begin pulsing from the entryway, in rhythm with the music, illuminating the plume of smoke which is rising from the stage.
Sharper: “But we cannot be forgetful of this woman who has had her own career defining moments.”
Winters: “Moments that recently ended with her standing tall at Rise to Greatness even though Requiem lost to Blood Grove.”
Sharper: “Not only that as well, Foxx did what no one expected and left her partner alone in the ring which began a lot of speculation over social media about what that meant.”
As the “Amens” ring out, the arena goes dark again and remains that way until the chorus rings out and the white light once again illuminates the entryway showing Rachel Foxx slowly emerging from the smoke. She is wearing a black zip-up hoodie with “MERCENARY” written in what looks like red paint on the back. The hood covers her head, but her emotionless eyes still stare out with a faraway look as she slowly makes her way down the ramp to the ring, never acknowledging the intense reaction of the crowd around her as an eerie calm and coldness radiates from her. At the bottom of the ramp, she slowly climbs the stairs and slowly makes her way into the ring with none of her usual theatrics. Once in the ring, she makes her way to her corner while removing her hoodie and tossing it down to the ground.
Sharper: “This could be a show stealer folks, do NOT adjust that dial.”
Winters: “Exactly!”
The bell sounds off and the fans erupt as Rachel quickly spins on her heels and sprints at Tommy Valentine and catches him off guard with a forearm shot to the face. He stumbles back into his corner and Rachel follows it up with a knee to the mid section, and then another before connecting once again with another forearm shot. Tommy forces himself out of the corner along the ropes but it doesn’t do much good in this early going on thanks to a swift kick to the midsection. Foxx clubs Valentine in the back not once but twice before dragging him towards another corner. She pushes him back and connects with a knifes edge chop which gets a “Wooo” from the rowdy Buffalo crowd.
Winters: “Foxx is in full control from the early onset here tonight in Buffalo.”
Sharper: “She has the tenacity of a pit-bull that is for sure.”
Rachel hits another chop to the chest of Tommy Valentine getting a similar response from the crowd, and attempts to send Tommy across the ring with an Irish whip. The former World Champion however has other ideas as he slides to one knee in the middle of the ring countering. Foxx see’s this and wastes no time charging at him for a clothesline attempt, but Valentine ducks under and applies a rear waist lock before throwing Rachel over with a release German suplex. Foxx however is agile enough like her name suggests to land on her feet. Tommy quickly rolls back to his and once he turns around, Foxx lets forth an almighty slap to the face.
Winters: “OOOOH That will leave a mark in the morning, take that Valentine.”
Sharper: “Rachel Foxx letting Tommy know what she thinks about him, Valentine though doesn’t look best pleased!”
The crowd “Oooohs” only spark a reaction they expected from Valentine and that was a right hand shot to Foxx, and another and this time he whips her into a corner only to sprint into it shortly after and connecting with a lariat! The crowd roars now as Tommy springs into life almost with kick after kick after kick forcing Rachel into a seated position. He continues to stomp away at her however clearly incensed at the slap, but the official interjects or at least tries to by Tommy doesn’t pay him any attention and thus a count begins…

3…
4… Tommy backs away to even more cheers from the fans of SCW as Rachel sits down in the corner almost laughing. Tommy rubs the side of his cheek while the referee warns him about the rules, he apologizes before going back onto the offensive however Rachel rolls under the bottom rope to boo’s from the SCW Crowd. Tommy stops mid stride and looks at the official who is calling for Rachel to come back into the ring, but she just laughs again while confidently walking around the ring.
Winters: “Classic Rachel Foxx here, she isn’t bringing the fight to Tommy right now. She’s make sure his momentum dies down.”
Sharper: “It’s cowardly! She’s a multi time Underground Champion for crying out loud!”
Winters: “Didn’t you learn anything about talking dirt about people, if you thought last week was bad what do you think Foxx will do to you man, wise up!”
The referee is now leaning through the ropes and demanding that Rachel get back into the ring, but again she’s showing no care in the world right now. But Tommy Valentine is however, he hits the ropes and sprints towards the official and Leaps over him and the top rope to catch Rachel with a cross body! Valentine lands on his feet however and lets off a roar before pumping up the crowd even more. He turns his attention to Foxx which he pulls to her feet and throws her back into the barrier with authority. The Suicide Queen winces a little but starts to get back up almost instantaneously only to get a boot for good measure while the official begins to count.
Sharper: “HUGE MOVE from Valentine, that’s a game changer right there!”
1…
2…
3… Tommy has lifted Rachel to her feet and connects with a right hand as he begins to drag her towards the ring, he attempts to slam her face first into the apron, but Rachel blocks it and drives an elbow into the gut of Valentine knocking some wind out of him.
4…
5…
Rachel then hits another and one more before stepping back and slamming his face into the apron! The crowd ooh’s, but begins to rally behind Tommy as he drops to a knee holding his face, Rachel takes a few more steps back and kicks him in the side of the head before rolling back into the ring…
Winters: “That might have been a game changer, but right now it’s looking like the game is still much in Rachel’s favor. Valentine looks like he is out!”
6…
7…
8… Tommy is shaking the cobwebs out as he rolls to a knee, the official having reached eight…
9… The SCW fans are screaming and Tommy has caught wind and quickly rises up and dives into the ring before the final ten count. The crowd pops as Rachel who was on her knees holds her head shaking it. A sneer shortly follows suit however as she rises to her feet and runs across to drop a boot to the chest of Tommy Valentine, she doesn’t stop there however when pulling him up to his feet and applying a front face lock and lifting him up and over with a snap suplex! A laterally press follows but no pin cover occurs, instead Rachel mounts Tommy and begins to hammer away with thunderous right hand shots .
Sharper: “Once again there is that ferocity Rachel Foxx is famous for, it’s that attitude where she wants to seriously maim her opponents, frightening stuff.”
Winters: “Yet you talk trash about her, you never learn.”
Rachel steps away and walks over to a corner and waits while Tommy begins to roll over to his hands and knees. The shots to his head clearly making themselves know as he tries to once again shake off the cob webs. Once on his knees Rachel charges out of her corner looking to connect with a vicious kick to the temple, but Tommy had it scouted and ducks only to roll her up for a quick pin attempt…
1…
2… KICK OUT BY FOXX!
Winters: “close fall on Foxx, but that resilience shining through.”
Tommy rolls away and back to his feet just as Foxx rolls to hers, the two colliding in the middle of the ring with a grapple, this time it’s Tommy with a knee to the gut of Rachel and an Irish whip into the ropes. The suicide queen makes her return only to run head on into a shoulder block knocking her down to the canvas. Valentine drops a knee across Rachel’s chest next, the former champion rolling away almost instinctively towards a corner.
Sharper: “I may be outspoken on a lot of matters in SCW as of late, but one thing we can all agree on is the ring awareness of Rachel Foxx. That right there shows the amount of experience she has under her belt.”
Foxx remains in the seated position, but Tommy is on his feet and standing opposite her, with a quick signal Tommy then charges out of the corner, across the ring and hits a vicious Shining Wizard to Foxx sandwiching her with the corner of the ring. The crowd “ooohs” before Tommy rolls back to his knees and then his feet before grabbing Foxx’s legs and dragging her out before covering.
1…
2… KICK OUT BY FOXX!
Winters: “WOW, I thought that was it there!”
Sharper: “Tommy thought that as well by the looks of things and rightfully so, that was brutal.”
Tommy holds his head while Rachel rolls away towards the apron, he then looks at the official and asks once again but he shows only two fingers. Rolling to his knees Valentine gets to his feet and makes his way towards Foxx who is now on her knees on the ring apron. Tommy reaches over the top rope but Foxx drives her shoulder into his gut, he tries to shake it off and reaches over again but once more Foxx drives her shoulder into his gut. Foxx then pulls him up and locks in a front face lock before lifting him up once more and hitting a vicious suplex off the apron to the matting! The crowd roars upon the sight of the impact, Tommy arches his back in clear pain as does Foxx both of which lay on the mats outside…
Winters: “GOD DAMN! Vicious Suplex, that matting doesn’t protect you much and from that height let me tell you it hurts, it hurts a damn lot!”
Sharper: “Which is why Rachel went for that bold move, it takes a lot out of your opponenet.”
The official looks down at both of the superstars and has no choice but to begin his count once more to begrudge of the SCW Fans…
1…
2…
3… Foxx is the first to move holding her lower back, but starts to roll over…
4….
5… Valentine quickly rolls to his hands and knees again with Foxx now starting to get onto her feet…
6…
7… Foxx is back to her feet and watches as Tommy begins to get to his, she runs at him to drive a knee into his temple, but he rolls out of the way.
8… Valentine is on his feet now and dives into the ring, Foxx turning around and seeing this does the same before the count reaches 9. Tommy is getting to his feet first, but Rachel is the spritelier and runs across and connects with a running dropkick to the face, Tommy stumbles back into the ropes and staggers towards Rachel who locks in and connects with a move she calls The Downfall! The crowd oohs and begins to boo loudly as Foxx for the first time this evening get’s to finally attempt to pin her opponent…
1…
2…
3? NO! VALENTINE KICKS OUT!
Sharper: “Wow, we spoke about Foxx’s resilience earlier, but what of Valentines? He is as tough as they come.”
Foxx lets out a primal scream of anger before slapping the mat furiously; she leaps to her feet and gets right into the officials face. Pointing at him and demanding he counts faster next time, the referee of course stands his ground but this distraction for Foxx is enough to warrant her unassumingly seeing Valentine getting back to his feet. The roars from the crowd however is enough to garner her attention, she quickly spins around and goes for a lariat but Tommy ducks before pushing her into the ropes, she comes back on the return and gets caught with a variation of the Grievers Bane! The crowd erupts loudly as he dives on top of Rachel and hooks both legs for the cover.
1…
2…
3!!!
Sharper: “GRIEVERS BANE, THE REST IF ACADEMIC!”
Winters: “WOW, from out of nowhere as well. Foxx didn’t know what hit her.”
Sharper: “And the return to form continues for Tommy Valentine, you’ll have to wonder if he fancies his chances at acquiring championship gold once again in the near future.
The bell sounds signally the win and Tommy rolls off of Rachel and is assisted to his feet by the official, Foxx rolls away towards the apron while Valentine begins to celebrate with the fans. He climbs the turnbuckle and raises his arms before clapping them, but the cheers for the former world champion suddenly turn into screams as a figure rolls into the ring and sprints across only to leap onto the ropes behind Tommy and lock in a rear waist lock. Before Tommy can react however the individual throws Valentine back with a release German suplex into the canvas! Only then do we see who the attack is…
Sharper: “JAME S EVANS!”
The crowd continues to boo while Evans stomps away at Tommy who can’t seem to defend himself right now. Foxx however starts to get to her feet and see’s James and doesn’t hesitate to go on the attack which prompts a roar from the SCW fans! The two share lefts and rights but then more boo’s emanate from the crowd as Matt Auclair runs down to the ring and slides in, Evans pushing Foxx into his direction where she is taken down with a vicious decapitating clothesline.
Winters: “Oh god now AUCLAIR is out here! Both have issues with those two in the ring, Evans wanting payback for last week and Auclair’s wanted to get his hands on Foxx for what feels like an eternity.”
Sharper: “We need security out here as soon as possible before they do something terrible!”
As if on cue, while Auclair stomps away at Foxx and Evans pushes Tommy into the corner and starts to hammer away at him, SCW officials and security run down towards the ring and separate the chaos that is ensuing. All four superstars are being pulled apart with both Evans and Auclair on one side while officials begin to check on both Tommy Valentine and Rachel Foxx…

Breakdown returns and we open up backstage to see Chris Cannon backstage with Mr. D in the locker room area.
Cannon: “What? What are you going to waste my time with here?”
Mr. D: “Chris…You want your Adrenaline Title shot that you’re going to shut up and listen. After what I saw tonight, I can make it all go away.”
Cannon: “And you can then enjoy what happens when you screw over something I’ve contractually won.”
Mr. D: “Try it. I still can remove it for behaviour and right now, I’m not in the mood. If you want your Adrenaline Championship…here’s how it’s going to happen.”
Cannon rolls his eyes.
Mr. D: “I’m going to give both of you your opponents. Both Selena and you. And first Selena Frost will get her shot. Then you.”
Cannon: “So I get whoever wins between Rayne and Selena….you’re making this easy to like for once. Too bad you’re not this fair more often.”
Mr. D: “Oh and I’m not done. See, you’re going to be in another match too before your Adrenaline Championship shot.”
Cannon: “What? Against who?”
Mr. D smiles and turns before motioning to his office. Collin Cole then steps out from it and the crowd roars.
Mr. D: “The man you didn’t beat at Rise to Greatness…Collin Cole.”
Cole smiles as he looks at Cannon.
Cole: “Let’s see if you can get me this time.”
Cannon scoffs.
Cannon: “I’m going to run you over before I get my Adrenaline Championship back.”
Cannon turns and walks off as Cole watches him leave along with Mr. D as the scene fades out.
Rain vs. Andrew Raynes
The arena goes dark as the opening to "Face Everything and Rise" hits the speakers. The crowd erupts into cheers as green lights dim around the entrance ramp as its surrounded with light smoke. After the intro kicks in, the lights turn into a green aura, we see Andrew Raynes slowly starts rising up through the entrance ramp. His head tilted downwards and his hands together in front of him. He stands there for a few seconds still looking downward, getting himself prepared. Afterwards he then looks up; looking focused, and then pounds his chest, his left fist on his right shoulder and his right fist over his left shoulder and lets out a roar before heading down the ramp.
He walks down, still looking focused; he's slaps hands with a few fans as he gets closer to the ring and the stairs. He hops up onto the apron and through the ropes, the makes his way over towards the turnbuckle, leaps up onto the middle rope and raises his fists to the crowd to thunderous applause. He hops off and walks over towards the other corner where he gets himself ready for the match.
Sharper: “Andrew Raynes about to be in singles action here. We saw his girlfriend, Amy Chastaine earlier to help Stacy Kissinger. But now, Raynes will face one of Chastaine’s proteges, the debuting Rain.”
Winters: “Rain’s been around a while and has had a good career thus far. Let’s see what he can do in SCW.”
“Thoughtless” hits the speakers as aqua colored pyro rains down on a hooded figure with his back to the cameras. Rain stretches his arms out to the side to the roar of the crowd. He stands in the pyro momentarily before walking down the entrance to take part in slapping hands with the fans that stretch out their hands towards him.
"Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
Pushing all my mercy down, down, down
I want to see you try to take a swing at me, come on!
Gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground
Why are you trying to make fun of me?!
You think it's funny
What the fuck you think it's doing to me?!
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying when you're dirty in the front of me"
He pauses at the end of the ramp, takes a long look at the surrounding crowd around him with a smirk on his face. He nods his head and runs forward towards the ring, belly first.
“All, all my hate cannot be bound (Hate cannot be bound)
I will not be drowned (I will not be drowned)
By your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down (Try to tear me down)
Beat me to the ground (Beat me to the ground)
I will see you screaming”
He places one foot on the bottom rope and the other on the second rope dangling up and down on it with a raised fist. He goes to the opposite rope and does the same much to the delight of the roaring crowd. He then takes off his hoodie and gives it to the referee as he stretches against the ropes.
Sharper: “This should be a fun contest here. Two individuals who know how to use the ring and can be really innovative about to go at it.”
Winters: “And for Rain, this is the big time. Raynes has known it and he’s had a bit of a transition. You wonder if Rain’s going to have the same.”
Rain turns to Raynes as the crowd roars and the bell sounds. The two start to head towards one another and lunge before grappling in the middle of the ring. Raynes turns and wrenches the arm of Rain. Andrew pulls back on it and looks around before Rain flips forward. He nips up and turns before wrenching the arm over and causing Raynes to flip over and land on his back. He gets up and Rain grabs him and headlock takedowns him to the mat before going into a pin.

He then turns and spins him around and throws him into the corner. Rain runs over and Raynes gets his boot up. Rain staggers back. Raynes then jumps to the middle turnbuckle and dives back with a twisting back elbow. Rain falls to the mat, holding his jaw.
Sharper: “And back and forth early. Both fighting with a quick pace.”
Winters: “Great if you can control. But if not, you open yourself up too much here and both taking some big shots early.”
Rain starts to get up and Raynes clubs him in the back. He then spins him around and pushes him into the ropes and fires him across. Rain bounces off and Raynes goes for a back drop. Rain spins through and lands behind him. Raynes turns and Rain jumps up and snaps him off with a frankensteiner. The crowd cheers. Raynes rolls through and gets up and Rain watches him before hitting a spinning crescent kick to the chest. Raynes falls to the ropes. Rain then grabs him and snapmares him down. Raynes starts to get up and Rain runs into the ropes, jumps to the middle rope and dives back with a springboard clothesline. He then goes for the pin.

He turns and Raynes jumps up and hits a dropkick, knocking him off and Rain lands on his feet and falls into the announce table.
Sharper: “Rain takes a hard fall into our announce table here.”
Winters: “As long as he stays on that side of the table, I’m happy. I have no desire to relive some of last week. I’m a family man now!”
Raynes watches him as Rain turns around and moves back to the ring. (1) Raynes runs across the ring, bounces off and then grabs the top rope, vaulting himself over with a twisting vaulting press.

Raynes steadies himself and Rain gets up and runs over to Raynes and nails him in the ribs. He then looks around before slingshotting himself onto the apron. He shoves Raynes forward and Raynes lands crotch first on the top rope. The crowd ohs. Rain then leans on the top rope.
Winters: “Well that didn’t work for Raynes. Worked well for Rain.”
Sharper: “Andrew Raynes lands in a bad way on the top rope. Rain now thinking about something big here.”
Rain then climbs up to the top rope and he looks at Raynes as Raynes turns a bit to get off, but Rain then walks along the top rope and jumps up, hurricanraning Raynes off the top rope. The crowd roars. Rain turns and goes for the pin.

Winters: “Rain starting to show what he can do. Damn. Off the top. One fluid motion. Nicely done!”
Raynes rolls over and Rain then turns and goes over to him. He then grabs his legs and stomps at one before turning and twisting him around and bridging back into the Believe the Hype. The crowd roars. Raynes yells in pain and reaches around. Rain keeps the hold on and Andrew Raynes finally taps out. The crowd roars and the bell sounds. Rain lets go and rolls away from Raynes. Rain looks back at him before the referee comes over and raises his arm.
Winters: “That’s a new one. But it worked. Raynes tied up and nowhere to go. Rain got him done.”
Sharper: “Believe the Hype. That’s the name of the move and you may want to believe any of the hype around that man. Rain, successful here tonight on Breakdown.”
Rain stands in the ring, celebrating as the crowd cheers. He looks around and nods before exiting to the floor. He high-fives some more fans’ hands at ringside as he starts to make his exit.

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 wearing one of her SCW T-shirts and a pair of jeans. She looks out at the crowd as she then starts to make her way down the rampway to the ring.
Sharper: “We heard a bit from Katie Steward but this could be interesting.”
Winters: “Katie Steward is a bit sorry for herself. That’s not the Katie I know, but frankly, she’s right. She’s not the only enemy in this. Her hopes and dreams were crushed because of their selfishness.”
Sharper: “You can’t be serious! They got out from under Silas.”
Winters: “Oh Silas got what he deserved, but think of Katie here!”
Regan Street reaches the ring and jogs up the steel steps. She then looks around before entering the ring. She walks across the ring and is handed a microphone by Jason Phillips. She takes it and walks back over to the middle of the ring before shaking her head. She then looks at the entrance way.
Regan: “I don’t even know what the hell to say about this but we get rid of one sack of crap and now I have to deal with someone who needs to realize that the greater good didn’t seem to involve them and now for good reason!”
Regan pauses briefly.
Regan: “Katie…I’m hearing that you’ve sobbing in the back about how apparently Sienna and I screwed you over out of something. No Katie, you did it yourself, but if you have something to say to me. Come out here and say it to my face!”
The crowd roars. Regan backs up. She looks around. The crowd continues to cheer.
Regan: “I know Katie you usually want someone else to do your fighting, but if you’ve got a problem, come on out!”
The cheers continue. Regan remains in the ring and watches the entrance way.
Sharper: “Regan Street is taking charge here. If Katie has a problem…”
Winters: “She had no problem approaching Sienna last week. Why not go after Regan?! Just stay away from the ring apron!”
Regan waits for a few moments.
I'm not cocky
I just love myself
Bitch!
As the lights in the arena begin to dim, the whimsical voice of Katie Steward is heard giggling as “Vanity” by Christina Aguilera plays on the speaker system. The crowd boos as Katie Steward walks out from the back. She already has a microphone in her hand. She then starts to make her way down the rampway. Regan Street watches her as Katie Steward focuses on the ring. She reaches the ring and hops onto the apron. Regan Street keeps watching her as the crowd looks on. Katie then enters the ring and looks at Regan. Regan Street remains standing in the middle of the ring as Katie steps forward and looks at her.
Regan: “Good to know you can come to people’s face and not need to ambush them-“
Katie: “We’re not starting this Regan. I am not the person at fault here. I didn’t want to hurt Sienna. She and I should’ve been challenging for the World Tag Team Titles. But instead, you got in her head that Silas Mason wasn’t going to get the job done and now, thanks to you, I’m out because you got selfish, yet again.”
Regan looks down and scoffs.
Regan: “You really bought in didn’t you. You actually believed what Silas was doing.”
Katie: “Yeah, Regan. I did. He gave me an opportunity and then he led me to Sienna. And the two of us, oh we were going to be a great team. A perfect Team. The Goddess and the Real Perfect Ten and Silas’ World was going to be on top with Tag Team Gold and I was finally going to finish the job and hold EVERY Title in SCW!”
Katie looks at Regan.
Katie: “And because you wanted to play the hero and you even got Sienna to buy in, all because you honestly think you have a chance at being the World Champion?!”
The crowd boos. Katie just shakes her head as Regan looks down, clearly trying to control her temper.
Katie: “No…See I had a shot. You just got upset because you actually had to wait. Silas couldn’t perform a miracle for you. And now, you’ve screwed me over and thanks to you, Sienna now is injured. She’s hurt and my best chance at getting the World Tag Titles this year is gone, thanks to you.”
Regan then nods before looking up at the crowd and taking a deep breath.
Regan: “You know what Katie…since you seem to think Silas is the best course for you…it shows that you’re beyond help. Sienna realized that…but the least I can do is give you a chance to blow off steam…especially since I’m going to do the same damn thing.”
Regan then drops the microphone and nails Katie with a hard right. The crowd roars and cheers. Katie staggers back and Regan nails her with another shot and another. The crowd cheers. Katie gets over to the corner and Regan nails her over and over again.
Winters: “Regan’s snapped!’
Sharper: “Regan had enough of Katie’s blaming of Regan and even Sienna. Of her defending Silas Mason!”
Regan nails her a couple more times before Katie manages to shove her back. Regan staggers back and plants her feet to stop. She turns and Katie turns, swinging and nailing Regan in the side of the head with the microphone. The crowd ohs as Regan drops to the mat. Katie then drops down and rolls to the floor. She then starts to back away from the ring. Regan starts to get up, holding the side of her head in pain. She looks up at Katie. Katie just backs away.
Sharper: “The microphone. Katie had the microphone and nailed Regan with it.”
Winters: “That’ll stop an attack quick. Those things are a load.”
Sharper: “But that look from Regan. I don’t think Katie’s going to be getting much sympathy from her any time soon.”
Katie continues to back off and Regan starts to get up. She then tells Katie to come back to the ring. Katie just continues to back off, shaking her head as we then cut away.

"Ms Hyde" by Halestorm echoes from the loud speaker. The arena goes pitch black. A single red spotlight shines at the top of the stage. Dawn Lohan makes her way out with Kordelia Price standing behind her. Something about Dawn stand out, she's wearing a red helmet, her mouth is covered, only her eyes can be vaguely seen. Dawn and Kordy continue their slow trek to the ring, the red spotlight following them the entire way. Kordy walks up the ring steps first, followed by Dawn. Kordy holds the ropes open so Dawn can enter, once they are both inside the ring the lights come back on. Dawn lowers her head. With her arms outstretched, Kordy removes the hood from Dawn's face. Upon lifting her head back up we catch a full glimpse of the white eyes Dawn and Blood Grove are known for. The two then walk around the ring as they await the arrival of the Sisterhood.
Sharper: “Dawn Lohan was watching Alexis Quinne take on David Helms earlier. We heard her talking to Red Rayne and it’s clear. She wants the Women’s Championship.”
Winters: “So does Harmony Fisher and Jessica Lasiewicz. We thought this may be about positioning for a Tag Title match down the road. It may have the Women’s Title in the balance too.”
Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my saviour
In my time of need
The lights in the arena go dim.
Blinded by faith
I couldn't hear
All the whispers
The warning's so clear
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
Now mercy no more
The big screen flashes to life. An image of Angelica Jones followed by one of Kayla Jones and then the word “Sisterhood” appears on the tron.
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
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. 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.
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 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, joining her sister in the center as they await the start of the match.
Sharper: “The Sisterhood making their tag team debut here tonight in Buffalo. Not just that, Kayla Jones in action for the first time in SCW.”
Winters: “And I hate to say this. I know the pain. I’ve got some of the same issues and it’s why I retired, but if I’m Dawn Lohan, I want to make a statement. I go for Kayla’s neck and don’t stop!”
Dawn Lohan looks at Angelica and Kayla as Kordy looks through the ropes. Angelica starts in the ring as the bell sounds. Dawn looks at her. The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Dawn aggressive to start and getting Angelica on her back foot early.”
Winters: “But Angelica getting distance. It’s why it’s not all to run. Send your opponent out and now you can get the tag.”

Sharper: “They just short-circuited the offense of the Sisterhood.”
Winters: “That’s the thing. A good team is great. But sometimes it’s all about positioning and Kayla fell to the wrong place. Dawn and Kordy take advantage!”
Sharper: “And not just that. The focus on the neck. I don’t know if that was intentional or not, but that was a perfect move at this point.”
Kordy slowly stirs and Angelica then extends her arm. Kordy slowly starts to get up and Kayla slowly rolls over. She holds her head and stumbles up to her feet.

Angelica starts to head after them, but she’s held back by Kayla and the officials. Dawn and Kordy just look at the Sisterhood and back up as the crowd boos.
“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play. We then cut backstage to see Vixen Cain. He looks at the monitor backstage before smiling and then turning. He takes a puff of his cigarette as he walks past.
Sharper: “Vixen Cain watching that action, but he’ll be in action next. He faces off against Syren in our main event here tonight on Breakdown! We’ll be right back!”
The scene fades to black.
COMMERCIAL:
Vixen Cain vs. Syren
We cut back to the ring where we find Jason Phillips waiting with microphone in hand. The crowd cheer as he raises the microphone up.
Phillips: “The following match is your main event of the evening, and is scheduled for one fall.”
“Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system as the lights dim and the spotlights focus on the stage, flashing intermittently between white and pink. After a few moments the curtains part as Syren makes her way on to the stage to a huge reaction from the crowd. She stands in the middle of the stage looking out at the fans before smiling at the camera and, as the camera gets closer to her, leaning in toward it with a confident nod. “Shall we put the controversy behind us and get down to wrestling? I think we should,” she tells the camera with a smile. The fans continue to cheer as she turns around, pointing at the back of her ring-jacket where we see the words ‘Just Be Jealous’ accompanied by her heart-logo.
Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy
She spins back around again before pointing at the ring, leaning in to the camera again and smiling once again before telling the camera, “c’mon, I think they’re ready for some action!” The crowd cheer more as she begins to walk down toward the ring, slapping hands on the way down to ringside.
Phillips: “Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, weighing one hundred and twenty seven pounds, this is SYREN!”
Syren stops at ringside and jumps up on to the apron. She looks around again at the cheering fans before ducking down, shaking her ass a little to another cheer from the fans before ducking in under the second rope and walking across the ring, climbing to stand on the middle turnbuckle and raises her hands in to the air. After a few seconds of posing she blows a kiss out to the crowd and jumps down, walking across the ring to the other side where again she stands on the middle turnbuckle, waving at the fans and blowing another kiss out to the crowd. After several more seconds she leaps down, removing her ring jacket and putting it in the corner before jumping up and sitting on the top turnbuckle.
Sharper: “Welcome back folks, and we’re ready for Syren taking on Vixen Cain tonight. After everything that’s happened recently, do you think her head is in the match?”
Winters: “It’ll need to be. She’s up against a dangerous opponent to underestimate. But realistically speaking she’s got to be distracted at the very least with everything.”
Sharper: “Syren, by all accounts, still looking to get back into the title picture here, but also very aware that Ravyn Taylor is now, which complicates things for her.”
Winters: “It wouldn’t complicate them for me. You’d have to see what happens if you put that title between them. Of course if Kelcey wins at Apocalypse, that simplifies things.”
The first several chords strum out before taking over into Danse Macabre and as the lights all start to flicker in time with the music, a sudden spotlight suddenly emerges, showering the stage in light. Another one from a high angle shines down in the same spot, followed by another and there the camera sees a shower of golden sparks fall down from the heavens behind the man who stands with his side to the camera, his head tilted up to the sky.
Phillips: “And her opponent, from Transylvania, weighing one hundred and seventy one pounds, this is VIXEN CAIN!”
He waltzes down to the song all the way to the ring. When he gets to the ring he dances around the entire perimeter then he walks up the stairs to the apron, turning to face the entrance. He removes his fur coat, showing, among many other things, the Vixen’s amulet and his demonic right arm.
Sharper: “Vixen Cain here tonight looking for a big win, but coming off a big win over Ducky at Rise to Greatness. Some would even call that an upset.”
Winters: “Never wise to upset Ducky either, in my experience. She is one unhinged young woman, and definitely not the kind you want coming after you.”
Sharper: “We’ll see if she can keep herself away from this match tonight as the referee checks on Cain, and we’re about ready to begin this one…”
The referee calls for the bell. Syren jumps down from the turnbuckles as Cain begins to circle the ring. The two keep their distance from one another for a moment. Eventually though they both approach the middle of the ring and lock up. Syren tries to push Cain back toward the ropes but Cain pushes her off and Syren rolls over completely before getting back to her feet. Cain comes after her but Syren nails him with a forearm shot to the head. He staggers a little. She nails him again, following up with a kick to the leg and then another forearm shot. She goes to run the ropes to build some speed but Cain cuts her off with a clothesline that takes her down to the mat. Syren rolls over toward the ropes. Cain taunts the crowd a little, who boo, before going after her and stomping away.
Sharper: “Syren trying to go toe to toe with Cain here, but Cain just about took her head off with that clothesline. This is what he needs to do. He needs to stay on her.”
Winters: “That’s probably the best strategy he can employ here. Keep on her, stop her from building momentum, stop her from wrestling this match her way.”
Sharper: “He certainly looks like he’s about ready to do that.”
Cain grabs Syren and pulls her back to her feet. He whips her into the ropes and nails her with a knee to the gut before grabbing her by the hair and launching her across the ring by her hair. Syren grabs her head and rolls over. Cain shakes his hands, shaking a few blonde hairs out of his hands. The fans boo again. Syren crawls to the corner. Cain charges at her and nails a knee to the head. He then follows that with repeated stomps and another knee into the corner before choking her against the turnbuckles. The referee quickly steps in to break up the illegal choke and Cain backs away before he can start counting, holding up his hands innocently, while Syren tries to catch her breath.
Sharper: “Cain bending the rules already here. We saw what he’s willing to do against Ducky though.”
Winters: “We also saw him knock Ducky out cold after the match.”
Sharper: “Definitely don’t think things are over between the two of them. Ducky says she’s coming for him. We’ll see.”
Cain grabs Syren by the leg and pulls her out of the corner. He drops down and goes for a cover on her. The referee slides into position to count.

Syren kicks out. She gets her shoulders up off the mat but is still holding her head in pain. Cain looks at the referee, perhaps annoyed at the speed of the count. He gets back to his feet and grabs Syren by the head. He pulls her up before locking in a front facelock and then whipping Syren over with a vertical suplex. He then rolls on top of her again for another cover.

Syren again kicks out. Cain glares at the referee. He gets up and gets in the referee’s face and starts signalling that that was more than two. Syren, however, takes advantage and grabs him, attempting to roll him over in a schoolgirl rollup only for Cain to roll all the way through, get back to his feet, and kick her in the head again. Syren rolls over holding her head once more. Cain grabs Syren by the hair and pulls her up off the mat and then throws her across the ring. Syren grabs her head again in pain as again Cain shakes blonde hairs out of his hands.
Sharper: “Oh c’mon, is that really necessary? We know he’s the bigger competitor, we know he has the strength to do that, but is that really the way he wants to fight this?”
Winters: “Seems like he’s trying to get into Syren’s head. He wants to show she doesn’t belong, that her time is over.”
Sharper: “I think if you ask Syren about that she’ll tell you her time has barely even started.”
Cain slides over to where Syren is sitting up and grabs her in a rear chinlock. He slips the hold on tightly as Syren tries to block it. He tries to pull her down to the mat, to get even more leverage, but she won’t go down. She stomps her foot on the mat and the crowd start to get behind her, clapping and cheering. Cain shakes his head. Syren then begins forcing her way back to her knees. She gets up to her feet and hammers away with shots to break the hold. She then nails Cain with another forearm shot before running the ropes, but Cain leaps forward and takes her down with another clothesline. Syren goes down holding her head again.
Sharper: “Oh! Syren trying to get the people behind her, not hard to do, but the moment she gets free of the hold Cain has an answer.”
Winters: “Well he’s obviously come with a plan, and to give him credit it’s working right now. He’s very much controlling the match against a former multi-time World Champion.”
Sharper: “Cain controlling the pace, keeping Syren grounded here, and the fans not liking it.”
Cain approaches the downed Syren. He kicks her so she rolls over and then comes off the ropes, dropping a knee into the neck and chest area. He drops down and goes for another pin attempt.

Syren kicks out again. She tries to get up but Cain grabs her and locks in a sleeper hold. Syren, however, begins to fight her way back to her feet again. The crowd cheers once more. They start clapping and cheering her on but as soon as she gets back to her feet, before she can even break free; Cain drops her back down to the mat again. Syren rolls over. He quickly closes in on her, forcing her down against the ropes and choking her against the ropes. The referee warns him and he backs away again as Syren rolls over in pain. Syren begins to sit up again but Cain grabs her and pulls her up before lifting her up and powerslamming her back down to the mat. He bounces off the ropes and nails a leg drop across the head. Syren rolls over. Cain drops down and rolls her back over to her back, hooking the leg.

Sharper: “No, Syren kicking out again, but she can’t keep absorbing all this damage.”
Winters: “She definitely can’t. Cain in complete control here, and Syren with very little offence so far. We talked about him keeping her grounded, he’s doing exactly that.”
Sharper: “These fans not liking it one bit either. Syren looking uncomfortable in this match, Cain in control, can she turn it around or will he finish this one off?”
Syren tries to get up again and Cain locks in another submission hold, grabbing her around the head again. She slips out of it however and gets back to her feet as quickly as she can but Cain grabs her in a waistlock. Syren reaches back and drills him in the face with an elbow. Cain staggers back. Syren then turns and unleashes a forearm shot to the face before nailing a kick. She grabs Cain and whips him to the ropes before leaping up and catching him with a dropkick as he rebounds. Cain goes down and Syren rolls back to her feet. She screams out over the ropes at the fans who cheer. Cain gets back to his feet but Syren runs at him and nails a running dropkick, sending him back into the corner. The crowd cheers.
Sharper: “And here we go, Syren fighting back, and this time Cain back into the corner, Syren finally getting some momentum.”
Winters: “He needs to stop this. If she gets the people behind her, if she starts to build up the pace of this match, he could be in trouble. He’s kept it slow so far, that was a great idea, he doesn’t want her picking up the pace here.”
Sharper: “But that’s exactly what she needs to do, and these people cheering to see it.”
Syren charges at the corner and nails a running clothesline into the corner on Cain. She steps back. She grabs him and whips him across the ring before running in and hitting a running splash. Cain looks unsteady. She then grabs him and lifts him onto the top turnbuckle before attempting to climb up there with him. She looks like she’s thinking of a top rope hurricanrana but while she’s positioning herself Cain nails her with a headbutt and she staggers and almost falls. He grabs her and nails another headbutt and this time she falls back down to the mat. The fans boo. Cain then positions himself before leaping off the ropes to hit her but Syren rolls out of the way and Cain hits the mat. The fans cheer.
Sharper: “Syren trying a little high risk offence, doesn’t pay off, but then Cain going for broke there with that attempted splash and he hit nothing but mat.”
Winters: “There’s an old cliché about it being called high risk for a reason, and in moments like that you learn the reason. Both competitors down.”
Sharper: “Syren got to be struggling to get back up though. She’s taken a lot of offence so far.”
Winters: “She definitely needs to put together some high impact moves if she’s going to turn this around, but that could be a good start. Cain looks like he’s struggling.”
Cain is the first one up. He pushes himself up while Syren grabs the ropes to get back up. Cain comes charging at her but Syren gets a boot up. Cain runs into it and staggers back as Syren uses the momentum to flip herself over onto the apron. She gets back up but Cain charges at her. She nails him with a shot to the head before driving her shoulder through the ropes and catching him in the midsection. Then she grabs the top rope and flips over the ropes, grabbing Cain as she does so and dropping him on his head. Cain grabs his head and rolls over as Syren lays on the mat a moment recovering.
Sharper: “Oh, that one is a momentum changer. Vixen Cain spiked on his head, but Syren can’t follow up…”
Winters: “She apparently needs a moment to recover here. This is good for Cain. But he needs to shake off that impact.”
Sharper: “That could be easier said than done. Cain holding his head, Syren getting back to her feet…”
Syren gets up. Cain rolls over. Syren staggers over to Cain. She pulls him up and nails him in the face again. She goes to whip him to the corner but he counters. He grabs her in a headlock. She slips out. She grabs him in a headlock though and whips him down to the mat. The referee checks if the shoulders are down but Vixen is keeping one up. He then transitions, attempting to trap her head between his legs, but Syren kips back to her feet as the fans cheer. Vixen gets back up and Syren grabs him but Cain grabs the hair and snaps Syren’s head off the mat. Syren grabs her head again. Cain pulls her up and looks to lift her off the mat but Syren slips down behind him and nails a dropkick to the back, sending Cain toward the ropes. She goes to charge at him to clothesline him over the ropes but he drops down and rolls out of the ring. The fans boo.
Sharper: “Cain could be… no, he rolls out of the ring. He knew what was coming there.”
Winters: “These fans not liking it, but you’ve got to say it’s smart. Cain slowly the pace down again. He’s keeping this match at his pace.”
Syren shakes her head. She rolls out of the ring to grab Cain but Cain skips around the ring and rolls back in. Syren rolls in after him. She tries to grab him but again Cain rolls under the ropes. He smiles at the fans who boo him, pointing to his head. He turns back to the ring just as Syren runs the ropes and flips over the top rope. She lands on top of him, knocking him to the floor before rolling back to her feet. The fans cheer and Syren takes a bow before blowing a kiss out at the fans. She then grabs Cain and pulls him up before throwing him back into the ring.
Sharper: “Well, that strategy WAS working. Cain trying to slow down the pace, but Syren takes him out on the outside. She’s doing what she can to up the pace here.”
Winters: “Cain got distracted by the fans there, played up to them a little, and Syren took advantage. Now she’s got some momentum building, can she fight back?”
Sharper: “Cain struggling back to his feet here. What are we going to see?”
Cain does indeed struggle up while Syren is on the apron. She leaps up and springs off the ropes, dropping him with a massive springboard dropkick. Cain rolls over toward the ropes. Cain pulls himself up using the ropes and Syren charges across and nails a running kick to the head that drops Cain back down to the mat. She leaps up and spins around before planting a standing leg drop and goes for a cover.
Sharper: “Oh! Face Lift! Blonde Satisfaction! Syren going for the cover…”

Winters: “No!! Cain kicking out and rolling toward the ropes.”
Cain rolls under the bottom rope to avoid any follow up moves. Syren gets back to her feet and runs the ropes before sliding into a baseball slide kick and knocks Cain out under the bottom rope. Cain hits the floor on the outside. Syren begins to climb the turnbuckles. Cain slowly gets back to his feet on the outside and Syren comes off the turnbuckles and crashes down on top of him with a huge moonsault off the top turnbuckles. The fans cheer and chant her name as Syren rolls over on the floor. The referee checks on both of them as Syren gets back to her feet, using the announce table to help her, before smiling at Sharper and shrugging her shoulders.
Sharper: “Syren taking Cain out AGAIN! Cain down on the outside, Syren back to her feet, and high risk has become high reward for her right now.”
Winters: “Cain is actually doing the right things. He’s keeping the pace slow, or trying to. He tried rolling out to the apron to avoid another pin attempt. He’s getting the strategy right, but Syren throwing caution to the wind. Six years in SCW, and she’s showing every moment of experience here in taking control.”
Sharper: “She certainly is, showing why she thinks she deserves another shot at the World title. Definitely showing tonight why she’s a top contender.”
Syren grabs Cain and throws him back into the ring. She rolls in after him. Cain rolls across the ring and gets up in the corner. Syren charges in, going in with her shoulder. Cain manages to lift his legs up either side, almost doing a split on the top rope, and Syren goes between the ropes and hits her shoulder on the ring post. Cain then flips down to the mat and pulls her out of the corner. He rolls her up in a schoolboy but she rolls through this time, rolling back to her feet and kicking him in the face. Cain rolls over holding his head as Syren drops down holding her shoulder and head. The fans cheer as both lay motionless in the ring for a moment and the referee checks on them both. Both begin to get back to their feet as the fans cheer. Syren goes after Cain though but Cain rakes her eyes. The referee doesn’t see it. Syren grabs her face and Cain slams her face first into the top turnbuckle.
Sharper: “Oh c’mon referee! Referee out of position, Cain takes a shortcut, Syren down to her knees.”
Winters: “Cain saw where the referee was. That was good thinking.”
Cain grabs Syren by the hair and slams her face first off the turnbuckles again. He then pulls her to the middle of the ring and looks to set her up for Mark of the Beast. He bends her over, pausing for a moment to tease the fans, but instead of letting him execute the move Syren counters with a shot to the head and then grabs him, driving him down with a DDT to counter. The fans cheer. Syren rolls over. Cain holds his head again. He begins to get back up and Syren kips back to her feet and instantly leaps up, snapping off a hurricanrana that sends Cain into the ropes. She then runs the ropes, leaping over the top rope and dropping a leg down on Cain, who’s laying over the middle rope. Cain’s body snaps off the ropes and to the middle of the ring. Syren rolls back into the ring, standing in the corner and waiting on Cain to get back up.
Sharper: “Cain taking too long going for the Mark of the Beast there, thinking he had this, and Syren… have you seen someone counter like that before?”
Winters: “She reached around and hit almost a DDT from a bent over position, that was innovative to say the least. Cain never knew what hit him…”
Sharper: “She may have something less innovative in mind to finish this one off though.”
Syren waits for Cain to get back to his feet. She charges at him, going of the Face Lift kick for a second time but Cain counters, catches her leg and picks her up entirely, setting up for a powerbomb, but Syren pushes up off his shoulders and flips over backwards, grabbing his head as she does so and using the momentum of falling to the mat to drive him down, spiking him on his head again in a modified Total Makeover. The fans cheer as Syren rolls over into the cover.
Sharper: “Powerbomb set up… INTO THE TOTAL MAKEOVER!! What a counter!”

“Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system as Syren rolls over. The fans cheer as she gets up to her feet and leans on the ropes, blowing a kiss out toward the fans. She then staggers to the corner, climbing the ropes and standing on the middle rope before pointing out at the fans and tapping her chest, mouthing the words ‘I love you guys’. She jumps down from the ropes, obviously happy with the victory, only to then get levelled by Vixen Cain unexpectedly.
Sharper: “OH C’MON!! Cain attacking Syren after the match! What the hell is that? Cain back to his feet, holding his head, and he just levelled Syren.”
Winters: “Look what he’s got on his arm as well. He’s got that gauntlet. We’ve already seen the damage he can do with that thing, what’s he going to do here?”
He teases the crowd, setting up Syren as she struggles to even know what hit her. The crowd erupt in cheers though as running down from the back comes Ducky. Ducky slides into the ring and goes right after Vixen Cain like a woman possessed. She starts beating on him, slamming his head to the mat, and looking like she’s going to rip him to pieces. The fans cheer wildly as Cain struggles to the ropes and rolls underneath. Cain falls off the apron and crawls away from the ring as the fans cheer Ducky wildly. Syren gets back to her feet only for Ducky to lunge at her though, dropping her in the middle of the ring. The referee grabs her as she seems to have completely lost it. She turns her focus back to Vixen Cain who retreats up the side of the ramp. Ducky climbs out of the ring and goes after him.
Sharper: “Well, Vixen Cain WAS going to use that gauntlet, you’ve got to believe, but Ducky just taking him out and… well, I think for Syren it was wrong place wrong time.”
Winters: “I don’t think Ducky really meant to go after Syren specifically then, I think she was just reacting to anyone in the ring, but Syren paid the price for it. That’s twice she’s been taken out after a hard fought match now, but she’s getting back up slowly enough.”
Sharper: “Referee checking on Syren, Ducky chasing Vixen Cain to the back here I think, and that might be it for tonight fo—”
“Rebel Son” by CFO$ plays throughout the arena.
“God Save Our Queen…”
The lights go out. The video package plays on the screen of the Union Jack waving while showing Lucas Knight, Trinity Street, Chris Cannon and finally Kelcey Wallace all posing in front of the camera before the chorus plays on the entrance theme, it then starts to play each of them in action performing their finishers on various opponents while still showing the Union Jack waving. When the lights come back up the Monarchy are almost at the ring, sliding into the ring as Syren is still down.
Sharper: “OH C’MON! You’ve got to be kidding me. Why the hell are they out here?”
Winters: “I would have thought if anyone in this building DIDN’T have to ask that question it’s you, Adam. You know all about what the Monarchy are capable of.”
Sharper: “This is ridiculous. Syren already attacked by Vixen Cain, then Ducky, and now the Monarchy out here to pick the bones. Leave the damn woman alone!”
Syren is almost back to her feet when Trinity Street levels her from behind. The fans boo as the four on one assault quickly begins, with Syren trying to cover up. The four Monarchy members however beat her down before Trinity picks her up and drills her down to the mat with Thy Kingdom Come. The fans boo as Kelcey pulls Syren back up to her knees. She looks barely conscious. Lucas then grabs her and signals for Monarchy Rules. The fans boo wildly.
Sharper: “Oh c’mon, not this! This is what took out Jonathan Knots last week. Jonathan hospitalised after the show, and now Lucas Knight looking to put Syren there as well.”
Winters: “I guess this is what happens when you cross the Monarchy.”
“Just lay your head in daddy’s lap
You’re a bad girl!”
“Bad Girl” by Avril Lavigne hits the PA system as the crowd erupt in cheers. Ravyn Taylor comes running down the ramp, dropping the United States Championship before she rolls into the ring. Lucas throws down Syren and Ravyn goes straight after Kelcey. She takes Kelcey down to the mat before turning and nailing Cannon with a shot as well, only to be quickly overwhelmed by Trinity and Lucas. The fans boo again as Kelcey and Chris get back to their feet and the four on one beatdown begins on Ravyn now as well. Kelcey backs away from the group as Chris Cannon and Lucas Knight pull Ravyn back to her feet, looking like they’re setting her up for Kelcey to hit something. The fans cheer wildly again as out of nowhere Shilo Valiant appears in the ring. Trinity charges at him only for Shilo to take her down.
Sharper: “Four on one beatdown on Ravyn now and… now what? Hey! Shilo Valiant out of nowhere! Where the hell did he come from? Shilo taking out Trinity!”
Winters: “The Monarchy had the numbers advantage a minute ago, but now things are a little more even. What’s Shilo doing out here?”
Sharper: “He’s going straight after Trinity, that’s what he’s doing! Trinity Street down and—”
Before Sharper can celebrate too much Shilo, after taking out Trinity, turns straight into a C4 from Chris Cannon. He goes down holding his ribs as Kelcey checks on Trinity and Lucas stands over the fallen Shilo. The fans boo again. Chris then grabs Ravyn, looking to finish what they started, but she leaps up and drills him with Evolutionary Synethesis. The fans cheer wildly as Cannon bounces out of the ring and to the outside. With Trinity now, and Chris now out of the ring, Lucas and Kelcey turn around only for Lucas to get taken down by Syren and Kelcey to get taken out by Ravyn. The fans cheer as Kelcey gets back to her feet and Ravyn clotheslines her over the top rope. Lucas staggers back up as well only for both members of Dark Fantasy to charge and knock him over the ropes as well. The fans in the First Niagara Center cheer wildly as both Dark Fantasy members stand in the ring, Shilo begins to recover, and all four members of the Monarchy back away on the floor.
Sharper: “Yes!! Yes!! Syren and Ravyn clearing the ring, a small measure of revenge here tonight after everything that’s happened, Syren leaning on the ropes inviting the Monarchy back into the ring as security rushing down here, FINALLY, to deal with this!”
Winters: “The Monarchy came out here to pick the bones, but thanks to Ravyn Taylor, and Shilo Valiant, now it’s Dark Fantasy standing in the ring.”
Sharper: “And the fans in the First Niagara Center are on their feet!”
Ravyn rolls out of the ring, grabs the United States Championship, and rolls back into the ring again, standing in the middle of the ring and holding it over her head while signalling with her hand that she’ll have another title around her waist. Syren stands next to her, holding her head but with a smile on her face, as “Bad Girl” by Avril Lavigne plays throughout the arena and we see security surrounding the ring and the Monarchy members on the ramp as Breakdown fades to black…
