Breakdown - December 21, 2016

“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:

The scene opens up inside the office of Mr. D to see Mr. D seated at his desk. He looks right at the camera.

Mr. D: “Ladies and gentlemen, before we begin the final Breakdown of 2016, I feel it necessary to make an announcement regarding the safety of SCW competitors. In the last two months, we have see Blake Mason injure or attempt to injure SCW competitors with the use of a piledriver. He calls it the Thanks for Coming. It has been known as the Perfect Driver. With it, he has injured Chris Cannon and attempted to injure Sienna Swann. Despite her representation’s concern, Sienna Swann fortunately was not seriously injured, although I have elected to give her the remainder of the year off, although her representation is considering something more significant.”

Mr. D pauses for a moment.

Mr. D: “I have met with the Board of Directors and we have all agreed the piledriver will hereby be banned in SCW. It and all variations, including the flip piledriver, cradle piledriver and tombstone piledriver, are banned. Their use, if done in during a match, will immediately lead to a disqualification. Whether during a match or not, should the piledriver be used in SCW, it will immediately lead to a $25 000 fine, the amount to increase with each infraction, to $50 000 to $100 000 and so forth. But more importantly, there is a three strike rule. The first infraction will lead to a thirty day suspension. Second will be sixty days. Third will be firing. The consequences are non-negotiable.”

Mr. D pauses for a moment.

Mr. D: “We will not tolerate these attempts to permanently injure SCW competitors. Consider this your fair warning.”

Mr. D pauses yet again.

Mr. D: “Thank you and enjoy the show.”

The scene fades to black.

“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. This is followed by a shot of Selena Frost locking the Frost’s Bite on Angelica Jones before showing Donovan Kayl hitting the Point Blank on CHBK.

"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 clutching the Adrenaline Championship 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 Eli D’Angelo hitting the Salvation on Ace Marshall.

"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 Kennedy Street standing in the middle of the ring posing, followed by Katie Steward posing and AJ Helms and Shaun Cruze 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 and Greg Cherry driving Shaun Cruze through the steel chair at Retribution before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.

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

Sharper: “Welcome everyone here to Detroit, Michigan. Breakdown on the air. Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters here at ringside. We started things off with a big announcement and one that frankly needed to be made by our boss.”

Winters: “I’ve had multiple back injuries. Neck and back injuries are no laughing matter. It’s one thing if you’re looking to wear down your opponent. Mason has become so proficient with the piledriver that he is looking to use it to take away people’s livelihood’s clearly. That needs to end. A lot of people aren’t going to be happy, but it’s a decision that needed to be made.”

Sharper: “We’ll have to see what response we get from that. Tonight, we also see the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament begin. Six matches to start us off and one individual who may have a big night to say the least – Dawn Lohan. Two title matche.s”

Winters: “Television Championship rematch. It never happened two weeks ago. Will tonight. And then she’ll challenge the Adrenaline Champion, Christy Matthews. Dawn could right off the bat tonight make history and become a Supreme Champion here tonight.”

Sharper: “And of course, we have the so-called wedding of the century. Ace Marshall and Cassidy Carter will be wed later tonight.”

Winters: “Lexi and AJ!”

Sharper: “That could happen too and earlier today, some guests were arriving…”

EARLIER TODAY:

We see a limousine driving up. The limousine stops. The driver gets up and walks around the vehicle and goes over to the door before, despite the freezing cold, we see the sunroom open as Sophie James sticks her head up.

Sophie: “Woooo! Ridin’ in style and pickin’ up chicks! Drive faster! Jackass!”

The door opens, without the driver opening it. Kimberly Williams steps out with a bottle of champagne.

Kimberly: “Come on! Bring the party in. Jeeves! Take the booze in.”

Driver: “Miss-“

Sophie: “You heard her!”

Sophie then climbs out of the roof and steps over and hops down. We see her holding a glass of wine and she downs it before throwing the glass down. We also notice they are not in any way in wedding gowns. She walks forward as the driver sighs.

Winters: “They seem like fun.”

Sharper: “Memories from college?”

Winters: “Two weekends ago actually.”

Sharper: “Meanwhile, they weren’t the only arrivals…”

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a vehicle, driving up to the back entrance. We see someone giving the driver some cash before getting up and exiting. We see it to be Lenore Price-Mason. She looks around and walks over to the trunk and grabs her gear. She then turns and starts to enter into the building.

Sharper: “And Lenore Price-Mason, obviously here for Lexi von Aaron.”

Winters: “Lexi and AJ are gettin’ hitched.”

Sharper: “Does she even know this is-“

Winters: “True love! Probably!”

Sharper: “Why are you going along with this?”

Winters: “Because it’s great. I love watching AJ Helms squirm like this. Hilarious, the sanctimonious bastard!”

The opening to "Wrap 1.9(The Princess Sisters Remix)" blares over the P.A. system. This draws instant boos from the crowd while the ramp lights go dark. Soon, the spotlight starts to shine in green to every beat, revealing Alexis Quinne, El Rudo, Dante McCaffery and Grundy standing in a row. The light flashes on each of them one by one. Once the song is heard saying “1, 2 whoop, whoop,” the lights come back on as does the green lasers that are displayed throughout. The lights flash green, silver and black. Alexis Quinne is sporting a custom made black and green PUNK HAZARD leather Varsity Jacket, along with a Hollow mask from the anime series Bleach. The SCW World Championship is in her hand as she thrusts it into the air.

Sharper: “And there is the new World Champion. PUNK HAZARD is being led by the SCW World Champion, Alexis Quinne!”

Winters: “Stunned the world, but got it done. She’s on top of the world.”

Grundy has the PUNK HAZARD/Bay Area flag in his hands and El Rudo, armed with a very artistic, abstract PUNK HAZARD painting created by Alexis in one hand and a rolled up black and green PUNK HAZARD banner while wearing a silver "Stone Mask", inspired by the character Dio Brando from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Dante McCaffrey is donning an all-black jacket with custom made patches and on the back, the PUNK HAZARD logo underneath a DmC logo in gold. Grundy doesn't react as the three soon look around before the crowd starts to react in the crowd and boo as the camera pan to the back of the arena in the cheap seats where Christy Matthews is standing, donning a black hoodie, in her eerie mock crucifix pose; the SCW Adrenaline Championship around her waist. The camera cut back to the ramp, where Alexis and El Rudo are seen pointing in the direction of Christy as Dante starts to walk down the ramp. The rest soon follow.

Sharper: “And Christy Matthews is still the Adrenaline Champion. As mentioned, she’ll be defending her title later tonight against Dawn Lohan!”

Winters: “And the Adrenaline Title will be a fixture of Block One of the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament until the finals.”

Alexis, El Rudo, Dante and Grundy walk down the aisle. The camera pans over to show Christy Matthews push her way down to ringside as security line the steps down through the crowd, holding back the fans in the way. Back to the aisle, when Alexis walks towards the camera, she takes off her mask and points at the camera in a nonchalant manner, before pointing to her World Title. She then turns around to show the PUNK HAZARD logo on her jacket before turning back to the camera and walking off. El Rudo walks back and is heard talking in his native language before walking off. Dante "shoos" away fans in the front row as all four members of PUNK HAZARD wait at ringside as Christy Matthews reaches the guardrail and jumps over. Christy looks at the four and nods her head before Rudo slides into the ring as does Grundy. Alexis and Dante jump on the apron before entering the ring as Christy slowly walks up the steel steps. Rudo puts down the PUNK HAZARD painting on the apron before revealing the PUNK HAZARD banner in full in the middle of the ring. Alexis grabs the flag from Grundy and ascends the turnbuckle and waves it around. Christy Matthews then ascends to the middle rope and once again does her mock crucifix pose to boos before she enters the ring. Dante just stands in the corner, in apathy. Christy Matthews takes a microphone as she walks back towards the middle of the ring. The crowd boos as the music fades out. Quinne just looks around smiling.

Christy: “I think all of you should take a moment to be thankful that this image is in front of you here tonight. We won’t need to hear another speech about how Syren is the Best Female Wrestler in the World. We won’t need to hear another speech about how Dawn Lohan will get revenge….she won’t even be able to defeat me for my Adrenaline Championship later tonight. Sorry, Dawn, no history yet for you. And that will be all I will say about that.”

The crowd boos as Christy Matthews looks around.

Christy: “We won’t have to hear Tommy Valentine talk about revenge either as it seems that PUNK HAZARD has his number. It seems to me that this GANG….yes, that term you love to use to describe us….GANG. Well this GANG has the SCW World Champion standing with us!”

The crowd boos as Christy looks around.

Christy: “So pay some respect as the Bay Area is well represented as the best in the world!”

The crowd boos some more as Christy hands the microphone to Alexis Quinne. Quinne takes it as the boos continue. She just looks around, proudly standing in the middle of the ring, the SCW World Championship over her shoulder.

Quinne: “Bay Area damn sure represented. We the champions, just like that and we on top of the world again. No Lebron last second heroics by Syren’s hand, or Dawn’s hand, or Tommy’s hand. All of the haters up against me and I just took them all down. Dropped down from the heavens and beat them all to make everyone realize that I am the pinnacle of this sport, clumpnuggets!”

The crowd boos.

Quinne: “Pint-Sized Awesomeness is now the Pint-Sized Champion and the woman that people have to get through and trust me, with PUNK HAZARD runnin’ things ‘round here, aint no one gonna boss us around or take over. PUNK HAZARD on top and staying there! Everyone thought when I took out Collin Cole, ended the Falconry that I was some arrogant little kid. Well, Collin Cole is off somewhere else and PUNK HAZARD is ON TOP!”

The crowd boos as Quinne smiles. Rudo yells at some fans as Grundy points to the PUNK HAZARD flag.

Quinne: “And at End of the Year Special, two people are going to find out what that means. That means that AJ Helms and Selena Frost are going to have to realize that whatever title hopes they have, they’re gone. Poof! Disappeared! GONE! AJ Helms can have his games with Lexi and even get married tonight. Who cares? He’s punching above his weight and all of you fans set him up for failure. That’s why you’re just fans. Who cares what any of you think? I just hope he doesn’t mind the long fall down when he fails to get the World Title just like he came oh so close to being the Tag Champs. Please…those are gonna be PUNK HAZARD’s soon enough too.”

The crowd boos. Christy just smirks as Dante can be seen looking around the arena.

Quinne: “And that brings me to Selena…The Snow Queen….the Year of Selena Frost. Please. It’s the Year of PUNK HAZARD. So I’m gonna make this clear and stand here and say it loud and say it proud, chica. You won’t be standing as champion to end 2016. The Year of Selena Frost is going to end in failure and you’re not going to get there yet. Maybe someday, sometime, but not against me. I see ya on twitter talking about Blake and Bree…focus on that, Selena. You’ve got a better chance at revenge than you do taking this. You don’t have it in you to take on a pitbull like me and chica, when I see ya at End of the Year Special, I’ll make sure you know that all of this talk about how you’re the unclaimed World Champion…it’s nothing but lies and you’ll have to watch PUNK HAZARD rake because that’s what we do….and then Syren…come Hazardous Envy…I’ll make YOU Totally Jealous!”

Quinne smirks.

Quinne: “Talk about weddings tonight…banning piledrivers…PUNK HAZARD is just gonna party…and we’re gonna party by watching Rudo earn two points in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament before watching Christy Matthews knock Dawn Lohan down a few more pegs. Now that’s a way to end the year.”

Quinne smirks and nods as “Wrap 1.9 (The Princess Sisters Remix)” plays. The crowd boos as PUNK HAZARD remains standing in the ring. Christy Matthews then walks over and raises Quinne’s arm. Rudo and Grundy wave the PUNK HAZARD flag as Dante McCaffery continues to supervise the scene.

Sharper: “Quinne is on top of the world. PUNK HAZARD on top of the world, but she has a hell of a schedule to stand up to if she wants to stay champion. AJ Helms and Selena Frost at End of the Year Special. Syren at Hazardous Envy on January 22.”

Winters: “And you don’t think she’s ready for that. This is going to be fun. Alexis Quinne is at the top. She’s not coming from there without pulling something or someone with her. And Christy, with the Adrenaline Title…”

Sharper: “Rudo in the tournament too. PUNK HAZARD a lot on the go. They’re in the position every group dreams of. What can they do now with the added spotlight and pressure?”

Winters: “We may find out later tonight when Christy faces Dawn Lohan with her Adrenaline Title on the line!”

The crowd continues to boo PUNK HAZARD as we then cut away.

“Limitless” by Adventure Club fearing Delaney Jane plays. The Shot of Adrenaline Tournament logo then comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Tyler Tucker vs. Jinn. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “And when we return, the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament for 2016-17 officially begins. Tyler Tucker faces off against independent superstar Jinn when we return!”

The scene fades to black.

Jinn (0 pts.) vs. Tyler Tucker (0 pts.)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

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

Phillips: “The following contest is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament Match, scheduled for onefall and has a ten minute time limit. First, on their way to the ring, accompanied by Craig Thomas and Stacy Kissinger, from Denver, Colorado, Tyler Tucker!”

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

Sharper: “Big night for Tyler Tucker as he starts his Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. Adrenaline Rush tried to get the Tag Team Titles at Hell Hath No Fury, but were not successful.”

Winters: “And Tucker looking to start things off well tonight.”

Robot Metropolis starts to play and suddenly, the big screen begins to flash red and black with a strange symbol of a phoenix in flight. As it flashes, we see the screen show 32XX appears as it starts to count backwards until it reaches our current time. As soon as it reaches, a bright beam of white light appears on the rampway as if cut through space and time. As the audience strains their eyes to see, it looks like from the light emerges a young man with blonde hair and futuristic battle armor. The light disappears from behind him and he looks to the left and right before crossing his arms and firing off an impressive array of fireworks and flames.

Phillips: “And his opponent, apparently from the future, he is Jinn!”

Making his way to the ring, he takes off his weaponry, leaving it in a neat pile off to the corner. He leaps to the apron before catapulting himself over the top rope and rolling into the ring where he strikes a pose on one knee and the pyro on the four turnbuckles go off. He then gets up and turns to Tucker.

Sharper: “And Jinn will be his opponent. One of several competitors from outside of SCW and I’ve seen some of his work and he can fly.”

Winters: “So he’ll fit right in place here?”

Sharper: “I think so. Just sit back and enjoy. These two men can fly and they’re going to show it here.”

The bell sounds as Jinn and Tucker watch one another. They start to move out of their respective corners and move over towards one another and lock up in a collar and elbow tie-up. Tucker drops down and around and into a side headlock. Jinn pulls Tucker back into the ropes. He fires Tucker forward.

Winters: “Just go to the hard camera and hope we catch this all!”

Sharper: “The essence of the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament on display here!”

Jinn winces on the floor. Tucker sees this and turns and hops over him and jumps to the barricade before hitting a moonsault off of it and onto Jinn. The crowd ohs. Tucker turns and starts to get up. He grabs Jinn and lifts him up and turns and rolls him into the ring. Tucker rolls in after and dives on him for the pin.

Jinn kicks out. He rolls over and gets up. Tucker turns and nails him with a jab and then another and another before a couple of hard hooks and then kicks him in the ribs before going to whip him into the corner. Tucker runs after him and Jinn gets an elbow up. Tucker staggers back and Jinn promptly springboards to the top rope and turns into a missile dropkick. The crowd ohs. Tucker rolls back. He starts to get up and Jinn runs over and hits a basement dropkick. The crowd ohs. Tucker falls to the mat.

The crowd ohs as Jinn falls back and rolls back into the middle of the ring. Tucker just falls to the mat.

Sharper: “I’ve never seen anything like that. My God!”

Winters: “Like an inverted cannonball. Could’ve hurt Jinn, but he doesn’t give a damn.”

Sharper: “The Shot of Adrenaline Tournament kicks off with one of the most intense and unpredictable matches we’ve seen in a long time. Jinn and Tyler Tucker showing just how amazing they are. What else do they have in their repetoires?!”

Tucker rolls over as Thomas and Kissinger check on him. Jinn moves back to the corner, looking at them a bit concerned before getting up and looking at them confidently. He just nods as he exits the ring, dropping down to the floor as we cut away.

Donovan Kayl (0 pts.) vs. Kara Abheri (0 pts.)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

The sound of a tiger roaring is heard in the darkened arena. Light blue and sea green spotlights light up the darkness and Kara Abheri emerges from behind the curtain, smile and arms wide. She's in her trademark Princess Jasmine inspired Harem girl attire. The Tiny Tussler is back home in front of the crowd. The raven haired beauty bounces down the ramp, slapping hands and hugging fans who call out to her.

Kara circles the ring, greeting as many fans as she can before bouncing up onto the apron. She enters through the bottom and middle ropes and then ascends the turnbuckles, waving to the crowd. As the cheers get louder, Kara backflips off the turnbuckle and lands a few feet from centre-ring.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is a first round match at the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament! Introducing First from Australia…. KARA ABHERI!”

She bows to her fans and the words "Thank you" can be read on her lips. The tiger's roar is played one last time as the music fades out.

Sharper: “The number one contender for the Women’s Championship and she will have to patiently wait for that opportunity thanks to Blake Mason and what he did to Sienna Swann at Hell Hath No Fury.”

Winters: “Scary moment and situations especially for someone as beautiful and talented as Sienna Swann, Blake Mason will pay for that in more ways than one but right now the young Aussie has been anything short of impressive and tonight she goes up against Donovan Kayl who is coming off a win at Hell Hath No Fury himself against Kennedy Street, not a huge fan of hers but even I have to admit, that girl fought with guts.

Sharper: “She is proving us wrong, the match was stopped due to blood loss on freak accident by Kennedy. Kara Abheri did fall short at the pre-show for Hell Hath No Fury but her eyes are set on the Women’s Championship and we will know for sure when that will happen since Sienna was given the rest of the year off due to the neck injury.”

"Epic" by Faith No More starts to play as the spotlight focuses on the top of the ramp. Immediately, the crowd rise to their feet in a raucous ovation. Stepping out to the top of the ramp is "The Cornerstone" Donovan Kayl. He steps to the side, facing out to the crowd.

After turning his head to survey the entire crowd, he turns to face the front of the ramp, beginning to walk out towards the ring. Kayl keeps his eyes focused on the ring ahead, and with a stoic gaze in his eyes, slaps the hands of a few fans at ringside.

Once he gets to the bottom of the ramp, Donovan pulls himself up onto the apron, walking over to the corner. He climbs up onto the second rope, looking out over the crowd, until the second chorus hits. Kayl throws his arms up for the roaring crowd, shouting out something that's just impossible to hear outside of the first couple of rows nearby.

Phillips: “Her opponent, from Toronto, Ontario Canada…. The Cornerstone of Professional Wrestling…. DONOVAN KAYL!”

He hops the top rope into the ring, moving to the middle where he spins once, dropping to a knee and shooting his arms out. He drops his head as the crowd showers the ring with streamers, cascading down around him as he looks at the ring under his knee before raising his head upward slowly.

Sharper: “The consummate professional, Donovan Kayl looks to win the Shot of Adrenaline Championship. Talk about a resurgence of a career, he looks for 2017 to be his year and looks to be in the best shape of his life. Kara Abheri though is an exciting young woman to keep your eye on.”

Winters: “I have to agree, she has had success outside the SCW, she now gets a chance to make a HUGE statement tonight beating a veteran and after news came out of Simon Lyman’s stroke and his recovery, it is added incentive that he wants to fight for his friend, it showed against Kennedy but we will see.”

The referee calls for the bell and the start of the match, Donovan and Kara circle the ring but he is caught quickly with a running dropkick by Kara. Donovan caught by surprise as he gets up and Kara jumps on him and delivers a monkey flip. Kara then runs and jumps on the middle rope hitting a Lion sault and hooking the leg for the cover…

Kick Out by Kayl!

The Cornerstone gets up and Kara bounces off against the ropes and hits a flying body press. She hooks the leg but Kayl kicks out, he gets up and Kara snap mares him over and then kicks him in the back, she goes for another cover….

Kayl Kicks Out!

Kara picks up Kayl and throws him against the ropes, she goes for a hip toss but Kayl follows through and reverses it hip tossing her but Kara lands on her feet and Kayl delivers a massive clothesline that knocks her down, he bounces off the ropes and delivers a rolling knee to the head before turning back around and hitting a corkscrew elbow. He goes for the cover….

Kara kicks out!

Donovan nods and grabs Kara, he picks her up and flips her over, driving his knee to the middle of his back and pulls her chin back. She screams in pain as Donovan tries to ground the high flyer….

Winters: “This is what the veteran knows, ground Kara, she is flying all over the place but as we know, these Shot at Adrenaline Tournament matches are fast paced, you have ten minutes to get some points on the board.”

Sharper: “You hit the nail on the head Shawn, time is everything. Red Rayne and Selena Frost won them the last two times, Red Rayne did it with high powered offense, Selena with her speed, Kayl cannot take too long or he will not be able to get those points he needs in the first match of the tournament.”

Kayl breaks the hold and grabs Kara by the hair, picking her up and delivering a few forearms backing her up to the ropes, he whips her but catches the Aussie in a tilt a whirl backbreaker, he quickly drops down for the cover…

Kara kicks Out!

Kayl nods and wastes no time, he picks up Kara and scoops her up over his shoulders, running against the ropes to drop her in a snake eyes but she wiggles free pushing him into the turnbuckle chest first. She dropkicks him in the back causing Kayl to stumble back into a School Boy….

Kick Out by Kayl!

Kara quickly bounces off the ropes and hits a spinning heel kick knocking Kayl back to the ropes and hitting a Float Over DDT as the crowd cheers. She quickly hooks the far leg for the cover….

1!

3…No! Kick Out by Kayl!

She looks at the referee who holds up only two fingers. She nods and runs against the ropes, she goes for a spinning head scissor take over but Kayl turns it into a gutbuster! The crowd roars as he goes for the cover…

!

2!

3…No! Shoulder up by Kara!

Kayl gets up slowly and picks her up by the hair, he goes to deliver a suplex but she twists out of it and lands behind him, he turns around and she hits a Frankensteiner dropping Kayl. The crowd roars as she points to the top of the ropes and starts to climb….

Sharper: “Kayl seems down, he hit hard going down into that mat, a great move by the quick Kara! We could see an upset in the first round!”

Winters: “This girl is as quick as a hiccup and she has Kayl down, what a huge win for this young lady and with a Women’s title match when Sienna returns, this could be huge momentum.”

Kara climbs to the top, she then goes for the Magic Carpet Ride but at the last moment Kayl moves out of the way and Kara lands on her knees. She looks up and before she can react Kayl delivers The Point Blank right on the side of her face knocking her down….

Sharper: “Point Blank hit its mark and she might be unconscious!”

Winters: “Kayl moved out at the right moment and we might have a pinfall, Kara looks out of it!”

Kayl drops on Kara hooking both legs and pulling back….

1!

2!

3!

The bell rings as Kayl rolls off to his knees and checks on Kara who starts to slowly stir. The referee raises Kayl’s hand in victory as “Epic” starts to play throughout the arena…..

Phillips: “The winner of the match in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament…. DONOVAN KAYL!”

The crowd cheers as he nods and checks one more time on Kara who moves to her side, he rolls out of the ring and high fives the fans heading toward the back….

Sharper: “A great match, it was fast and they were not working by the hour tonight. One mistake cost Kara Abheri but you have to be enthusiastic about this young woman in the SCW. She could be our next Women’s Champion.”

Winters: “No doubt about that, Donovan Kayl used his smarts and the veteran keeps winning, he has two points now and is on his way in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament.”

Kayl continues to the back as Kara sits up and nods to the referee signifying she is okay as the fans cheer both competitors.

Backstage we see AJ Helms in his locker room with Shaun Cruze, Angyalka Cruze and Scarlett Pearson.

Helms: “How the hell are we supposed to do anything legitimate tonight with Lexi running around?”

Scarlett: “I’m getting sick of this.”

Helms: “She’s brought in Money in the Bank! The real ones this time.”

Shaun: “AJ…I’m going to make sure you’re not going anywhere. If you go anywhere, it’s with me. We go together. It’s that simple.”

Helms: “Well I don’t want to be cooped up in here all night.”

Angyalka: “Relax. We’re on high alert. Lexi isn’t going to get near you.”

Scarlett: “And if she does, I’m going to redye her hair red.”

Shaun: “Easy there, Scarlett.”

Scarlett: “No…this is going too far.”

Angyalka: “She has a point. The brown hair, doing it to look better than Scarlett.”

Shaun: “Everyone just relax. AJ…stick to the plan and we’ll be fine.”

AJ: “Good…we don’t need another night of this crap.”

AJ sighs as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see Jessica Winters stepping into a room and looking around before turning and walking over to Ravyn Taylor, who is standing behind a table and smiling.

Jessica: “Ah…I was hoping to get a word with you Ravyn. I was going to ask about your thoughts on Selena Frost and the World Championship opportunity she’s about to get and also if we could get a comment tonight about why you did not get involved.”

Ravyn: “I’m a bit busy. Plus, let’s face it. Selena’s otherwise engaged. I’m sure Sienna is weighing on her mind. That all can wait. At least until New Year’s Eve.”

Jessica: “Yes, but not even a comment.”

Ravyn: “Perhaps I can work it into my presentation. I mean, we have some special guests and they asked me oh so nice, especially since they have plans for a future groom.”

The camera pans over to show Sophie James, still drinking the champagne from earlier, right from the bottle, Kimberly Williams who has a beer in her hand and Cassidy Carter who is not even close to ready for a wedding, wearing jeans and a t-shirt.

Cassidy: “Yeah! We need ideas damn it!”

Ravyn: “If you could take a seat.”

Kimberly pats the bench and Jessica walks over as we see Ravyn clap her hands together.

Ravyn: “Now, I’ve already shown you a few ways to use handcuffs to really have some fun, but let’s face it, we all know what you’re into.”

Cassidy: “Something to really push him to his limits!”

Sophie: “Oh totally. I mean after we handcuff him and give him the safeword, we need to make sure Cassidy has a lot of options.”

Ravyn: “Well I think I can help. Good thing I happened to have this nearby at a local apartment.”

Ravyn pulls up a suitcase and places it on the table. She unzips it and looks inside. She then grabs two items, both look for sexual pleasure, one far skinnier than the other.

Ravyn: “Now this…this I assume-“

Sophie: “Please. He won’t let you go near him with that.”

Ravyn: “That’s why you go with this. This is a pro-“

Jessica: “Whoa…wait.”

Jessica stands up and turns to the camera.

Jessica: “Can we even broadcast this at this time?”

Cassidy: “Oh please. And I’ve tried. He looked at me the one time and promptly ran screaming. I think we need to ease into that.”

Jessica: “Alright…too much information.”

Cassidy smiles as the camera turns to Ravyn who has now put those items away and feigns a frown. She then reaches in and pulls out a Drill-do.

Ravyn: “So probably no powertools.”

Sophie: “I’ll take twelve!”

Jessica rolls her eyes.

Ravyn: “Oh wait…I was supposed to work Selena into this. Well…if I used some of these on her, with her consent of course, then I would be ‘screwing’ her in a far more fun way for her, and perhaps something she may be used to. I however have no intention to do such a thing as I do not find her attractive for that ‘fun way’ and instead, merely my presence causes the anticipation of whatever may come next for her. The thrill of the chase. She’s playing hard to get since she is not only ignoring me but hoping I just go away. That’s not my style. I’m just getting started. The foreplay if you will….playing mind games. No tools necessary. Work for you, for a comment?”

Jessica: “Yeah…yeah…”

Jessica walks out of the room. The cameraman remains.

Ravyn: “So should we have demonstrations?”

Ravyn looks right in the camera as she smiles widely.

Ravyn: “Oh wait…that may get us kicked off the air. Oops…”

Ravyn shrugs as Jessica grabs the cameraman and pulls him out of the room.

Cassidy: “Awww…come on. We could’ve convinced him of things!”

Jessica slams the door behind them as we then cut away.

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 crowd boos as we see Regan Street walk out from the back, wearing a t-shirt and jeans. She looks around as she remains on the stage, microphone in her hand.

Sharper: “And it looks like we’re now going to be joined by Regan Street!”

Winters: “She beat Ace Marshall at Hell Hath No Fury, but she’s angry about a lot of other things."

Regan Street remains looking out at the crowd as the crowd boos some more and Regan Street then looks out at the crowd.

Regan: “I hope everyone saw what I did to someone when they piss me off.”

The crowd boos.

Regan: “I left Ace Marshall in a pool of his own blood and while the son of a bitch was a lot tougher than I thought he’d be, it was great to knock him around. And I thought maybe that would be a sign. But as I look around, it seems that it’s just that I’ve made sure he’s knocked down a peg for his dog and pony show later tonight….but then I had to hear that Syren is scheduled for another World Championship shot and that’s just something I can’t handle.”

The crowd boos.

Sharper: “Syren will face Alexis Quinne at Hazardous Envy. World Title will be on the line in Quinne still holds it after End of the Year Special.”

Regan scoffs a bit.

Regan: “She keeps getting lucky. A horseshoe must be up her ass. But that’s fine. That’s just something else on the list I’ll have to take care of, because if I have anything to say about it, she won’t be getting her rematch any time soon. I’m sick of seeing her holding that title and the fact that Quinne is holding the title, that’s just perfect. And that my own adopted son could hold it…now that would be fun….But that gets me to another issue….Shaun Cruze….”

The crowd roars hearing Shaun’s name. Regan looks around.

Regan: “Shaun…I’ve seen that crazy bitch, Lexi is running around still trying to talk about this wedding business with AJ. Now at End of the Year Special, we’re facing each other as we have a lot of unfinished business going a long way. Going to when we were competing for the World Title. And while David sees you as someone to guide AJ, now, he doesn’t need guidance, he needs someone to watch his back. Now, New Year’s Eve could be about us moving on from our past. But if you haven’t noticed, I’m a bit pissed off lately and I’m not in the mood for BS. So Shaun…you protect him tonight and End of the Year Special, it will be about burying the past. Fail to do so and it will be about me showing you that you’re not FIT to guide my son. And I will take matters into my own hands!”

The crowd boos as Regan Street backs up. “Who’s Next” starts to play as Regan looks around the building.

Sharper: “A clear message to Shaun Cruze and Syren too.”

Winters: “And her taking matter in her own hands is when people get hurt.”

Regan then turns and heads to the back as we cut away.

We open up backstage as we see Ace Marshall standing in front of a row of suits.

Ace: “Hmmm…good thing they brought a lot of extra sizes.”

Ace turns as we see a dishevelled looking man, scratching himself, wearing dirty flannel. We then see a teenager, looking around, wearing an Ace Marshall t-shirt and jeans.

Ace: “So…uh…find your sizes-“

Christina: “Ace.”

Christina Matsui walks into the room and then looks at the two men with him.

Christina: “Uh…”

Ace: “Meet…Jim and Steve.”

Teen: “My name’s Matt-“

Ace: “Great.”

Christina: “You didn’t have groomsmen, did you?”

Ace: “Yeah. I didn’t think that out. Especially when Cassidy got Sophie for her bridesmaids. She stole all my friends. That bitch. Maybe that’s a sign-“

Christina: “Well what about the Greaternity guys-“

Ace: “Yeah, well…sniff sniff, for Alex. Ethan is a tool. Adam, I’m pretty sure he’s lost in the Himalayas and well, Shawn’s busy.”

Christina shakes her head.

Christina: “Whatever. You never gave us sizes. Just style. Fortunately, this isn’t a dumpster fire like the women. The second option was teal. Teal is a horrible colour. You just get grey. So uh…”

Ace: “Got it. Matt…and…uh…Steve?”

Dishevelled Man: “So when are you getting that job for me son. I can cut sheet metal like a damn laser beam. Make America Great son. I’ll help you build it.”

Christina rolls her eyes and walks off.

Ace: “The job’s in the suits…Gotta find the one that fits. Sure…that’ll work.”

Matt steps forward and starts to look for his size as Ace stands back and watches. The other man does the same.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see Jessica Winters standing with Syren in the backstage area in the area.

Jessica: “Welcome back to Breakdown. I am here backstage with Syren and Syren, you’ve lost the World Title, but it was announced earlier this week that you would be facing Alexis Quinne at the first pay per view event of the new year, Hazardous Envy. If Alexis Quinne is still champion, the World Title will be on the line and Regan Street seems to take issue with that.”

Syren: “She’ll always take issue with it. But then again, she doesn’t seem to remember that rematch clauses are an issue and one SCW will always consider. Alexis never pinned me and as far as I’m concerned my issue with Quinne is not yet done. Not after how she got her opportunity.”

Syren pauses for a moment.

Syren: “But there’s a big issue with that rematch. It will happen, but it may not be for the title and I don’t need to read between the lines to realize Regan Street may try very hard to make sure I don’t get my rematch. And I’ll stand here right now, if Selena Frost or AJ Helms beat Alexis Quinne straight up, I have no problem getting back in line. That’s how it goes and AJ Helms and Selena Frost both are very talented wrestlers, both of whom are a threat to Alexis Quinne. But at End of the Year Special, while I won’t necessarily be competing on that event, I will be standing backstage and watching. Watching to make sure Regan Street doesn’t try to screw me over. Because that…that’s when we have a problem and it’s a problem I’m done tolerating. We hate each other. That’s no secret, but if she wants to restart the war, I’m not going to waste time ending it fast.”

Syren turns and walks off. The crowd cheers as we cut to the ring.

Akira Kimura (0 pts.) vs. El Rudo (0 pts.)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

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

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

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentlemen, this match is for the Shot of Adrenaline tournament and has a ten minute time limit and is scheduled for onefall. Coming out first, now heading to the ring, he is originally from Hiroshima, Japan and is now residing in Las Vegas Nevada, he is Akira Kimura!”

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

Sharper: “We are getting the Shot of Adrenaline tournament underway. Akira Kimura is making his SCW debut here tonight, competing in the Adrenaline division, hoping to get a big win right out of the gate here.”

Winters: “This is a big tournament and it has become a big part of the SCW legacy. This is our third year doing it and as history has shown us, we will be in for some show stealing performances throughout.”

Sharper: ‘You have to wonder if that is Akira wants to do, especially his first night with us.”

Winters: “Oh I am sure he is. You always want to make that huge first impression. He certainly has the chance to do so, but he will be facing a member of PUNK HAZARD tonight, so if he wants to win, then Akira better be ready for one hell of a fight.”

All eyes goes to the entrance ramp where all of a suddenly El Rudo runs out, donning a black and green mask Glow in the Dark mask with a custom made black and jacket leather jacket with a PUNK HAZARD logo on the back and a logo of his mask right below and a mouth scarf covering his mouth. The masked man stands in the middle of the entrance ramp and soon raises a boombox in the air. As he hoist it up in the air, the opening to "Heroes Come Back" blare over the PA system as the lights soon start flashing green, silver and white. Alexis Quinne. Dante McCaffery and Grundy soon walk out, with Grundy having the PUNK HAZARD/Bay Area flag flag in his hands and Alexis having her SCW World Heavyweight Championship on her shoulders, the title having "PUNK HAZARD" on it in green spray paint.

Phillips: "And his opponent, making his way to the ring, representing PUNK HAZARD, from Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan, weighing in at one hundred and eighty pounds, EL RUUUUUUDO!

El Rudo walks down to the ring and jumps up and down to his theme. Alexis, Dante and Grundy follow him around as El Rudo is heard talking to the camera in his native language while rapping his theme that's playing over the PA and on the boombox. He then walks to the left side of the ring and then walks up the steel steps. Rudo turns around and nods his head back and forth to boos. He then ascends up the turnbuckle.

Because it's 3,2,1
MAKE SOME NOISE!

Rudo counts down before ending by flashing a thumbs down gesture. The lights dim briefly, which activates Rudo's glow in the dark mask. The crowd oohs and boos as Rudo then grabs his boombox and lifts it up in the air. Rudo nods his head up and down before scaling back down and entering the ring. The lights come back up. Rudo walks over to the corner where PUNK HAZARD is located. Rudo takes off his jacket and then his glow in the dark mask, revealing his black and green mask. He exchanges a fist bump with Alexis before he talks with her and Dante on the outside about the match. Grundy starts on the outside. Dante soon drops down to the floor, but Alexis and Rudo continue to talk.

Sharper: “El Rudo escorted to the ring by none other than PUNK HAZARD, led by our newly crowned SCW Champion in Alexis Quinne. I am sure that they want to continue that momentum here tonight by advancing in the Shot of Adrenaline tournament.”

Winters: “With PUNK HAZARD out here, if I am Akira, I am doing my best to grow eyes in the back of my head. And tell him not to call them a gang either. That just gets everyone in a state of emotional distress.”

The ref calls for the bell and Akira steps into the center of the ring. El Rudo walks around the ring keeping his eyes on Akira, who returns the favor, slowly following El Rudo while standing in the center. El Rudo finally lunges forward, going to grab Akira, but Akira moves quickly, grabbing El Rudo and pulling him down to the mat, locking in a crippling crossface. The ref begins to immediately check on Rudo. Alexis Quinne can be heard shouting and yelling at Akira.

Quinne: “HE WASN’T READY!!!”

The ref checks on Rudo who shakes his head no, only for Akira to lean back, cranking on the hold applying more pressure.

Sharper: “Well, Akira going for the early submission on El Rudo. Rudo tried to get in a quick attack but Akira turned the tables in the blink of an eye.”

Winters: “When you have PUNK HAZARD around, it’d be smart to try and end things as quickly as possible. Good move for the new guy.”

Rudo tries reaching for the ropes but can’t seem to get there. Alexis is shown nodding her head at Dante and Grundy, who nod back. All three remaining members of PUNK HAZARD hop onto the apron. The ref takes his focus off of the competitors and begins to jaw with Alexis. Akira releases the hold and quickly gets to his feet, keeping his eyes on each member of PUNK HAZARD. The crowd boos as El Rudo gets to his feet and nods at Alexis, who along with Grundy and Dante, hops down off of the apron.

Winters: “PUNK HAZARD using their numbers to distract Akira. He’s going to have to focus on getting things done.”

Akira goes to grab Rudo now but Rudo dunks behind him, then gets in a back rake, earning boos from the crowd, a warning from the ref, and praise from PUNK HAZARD. Akira holds his back before turning and glaring at Rudo.

Sharper: “I think the new guy just pissed off. This could either do well for him, or go south quickly.”

Winters: “Yeah when we you allow your opponent to get inside your head, that could end up costing you. It is best to keep your cool, otherwise you begin to make mistakes.”

Rudo lunges at Akira, but he drives a knee into Rudo’s abdomen. Rudo doubles over, only for Akira to begin firing away with kicks to the ribs, then front and back of Rudo’s legs. Rudo drops to one knee and Akira nails him with a kick to the spine. Rudo hits the mat and bounces up, holding his back and wincing in pain. Rudo grabs onto the ropes as if he is supporting himself. Akira goes over to Rudo, only for Rudo to deliver a back elbow, which causes Akira to stagger. Rudo then whips Akira into the corner and follows up with a running elbow smash. Akira crumples in the corner as Rudo backs away. Akira gets to his feet and shakes his head, but Rudo connects with another running elbow smash. PUNK HAZARD is heard cheering Rudo on. He gives them a thumbs up before lifting Akira up to the top rope.

Sharper: “Rudo now in control. Neither man getting much of an upperhand at first, but whatever Rudo has planned may turn things completely in his favor.”

Once up top, Rudo begins to hammer away on Akira’s skull. He then begins to thrust his crotch into his opponent’s face, earning himself more boos.

Sharper: “And a sign of blatant disrespect from Rudo.”

After four thrusts, Akira nails a shot to Rudo’s ribs. Rudo almost loses his balance, but manages to maintain it and fires away with another right hand to Akira’s skull. He then goes for a top rope hurricanrana, but Akira stands up mid move and leaps off of the top, connecting with a power bomb to the center of the ring. The crowd cheers as Akira goes for the cover.

Rudo manages to get the shoulder up.

Winters: “You spoke of disrespect but Akira made Rudo pay for it. It nearly cost him the match right there after that power bomb off the top rope.”

Akira lifts Rudo off of the mat and hits a few quick elbows to the side of Rudo’s head, before connecting with a jumping roundhouse kick. Rudo crumples to the mat as Akira goes for the cover.

The referee stops the count as Dante quickly slides into the ring. The ref gets in Dante’s face and they begin to argue. Akira rolls away and keeps his eyes on Grundy and Alexis who begin to saunter around the ring, taunting him. Rudo gets to his feet and Akira charges at him, but Rudo manages to hit him with a low angle dropkick. Akira flips and lands on his back. Rudo rolls him using the tights as Dante exits the ring. The ref turns around and begins the count.

The ref stops the count after noticing Rudo has Akira’s tights. Rudo shakes his head and tries to play it off. Alexis now gets onto the apron and begins to argue with the referee. Rudo lifts Akira up, but he leaps up, spinning in the process, and connecting with an uppercut, which staggers Rudo.

Sharper: “Akira turning the tide with the move I believe he calls Dark Wind Rising. I am sure it will become well known in the halls of SCW.”

Winters: “Despite PUNK HAZARD using the numbers game, he has done well to keep the tide in his favor. But he still needs to be mindful of his surroundings.”

Akira goes for a pin, but Alexis continues to argue with the referee. The crowd chants and counts for Akira. Akira slams his fist on the mat and gets up and charges towards Alexis, who jumps down off of the apron, causing Akira to bump into the referee. The referee stumbles a bit. Facing the opposite way, the ref uses the ropes to regain his balance. Akira goes back over to Rudo who lands a low blow punch, which causes Akira to double over. Rudo grabs Akira and takes him down with a spinning neckbreaker. He then goes for a cover as the crowd boos.

Sharper: “Rudo with the low blow and that puts a stop to Akira’s momentum.”

Winters: “I don’t many men who wouldn’t have their momentum stopped if that happened to them. Well, unless you’re Vixen Cain.”

The ref regains his balance but drops to the mat to begin the count.

Akira shoots the shoulder up. Rudo shakes his head in disbelief. He picks Akira off of the mat, but Akira hits a quick uppercut followed by some kicks and punches, leaving Rudo stunned. He then whips Rudo into the corner and connects with a running forearm. Rudo crumples to the mat, only for Akira to nail a running dropkick to his fallen opponent. Akira then lifts Rudo and places him on the top rope. Akira then climbs up as well.

Alexis and Dante jump up onto the opposite ring apron, once again getting into it with the referee. Akira begins to hammer away at Rudo’s skull, only for Grundy to slide into the ring and hit a low blow before taking Akira down with a power bomb. He then places Rudo on top and slides out of the ring. Dante and Alexis drop off of the apron as the referee turns around to find Rudo hooking the leg. He then begins the count.

3!!!

The crowd begins to boo as PUNK HAZARD slide into the ring and begin to celebrate with Rudo.

Sharper: “The numbers game proving to be too much for not only Akira but the referee instead. Akira did all that he could and definitely took the fight to Rudo, but as I said, the numbers were too much.”

Winters: “Rudo makes it through the beginning round of the Shot of Adrenaline tournament and you have to wonder how the rest of his matches will play out. PUNK HAZARD has put everyone on notice.”

We open up backstage to see Spirit Dansby standing by with Shilo Valiant at the SCW interview area. The crowd boos seeing Shilo.

Spirit: “I am here with Shilo Valiant and we’ve already had three Shot of Adrenaline matches, but Shilo, you’re looking to compete every televised event that takes place during this tournament until you exhaust your matches. On top of that, you’re not sure who your opponent is as Epico Failo was injured at his company’s event and the alternate has not been announced yet.”

Shilo: “About that, it’s great for SCW to announce an alternate is coming in on Twitter, a platform only people who frankly have no sense of importance or entertainment. One hundred and forty characters…I don’t waste my time with such little space. But this is just another attempt to mess with me as the TV title was taken from me, despite me being the rightful holder. Then Marina was banned, so this is just another attempt, but fine…”

Shilo pauses for a moment.

Shilo: “But let’s take stock of things for a second. We’ve already had two matches from my block. Tucker and Jinn, running around, jumping around, all power to them. Kayl and Kara. Two people who don’t deserve the spotlight. That leaves me and I think SCW should be reminded of what I bring to the table. So this is simple. I will compete every episode of SCW television until I exhaust the matches. And if don’t win, then SCW can kiss my ass. If I don’t win this tournament, SCW doesn’t deserve what I bring to the table…more entertainment that anyone else here could ever manage. If I don’t win Shot of Adrenaline, I will retire. And whoever wants to give me the final shot to knock me out….give it a try. Whoever is lined up for me to start…give it a shot. And then SCW can realize how joyless this place really is without me.”

Shilo smiles as he looks at Spirit.

Shilo: “Ha….ha…..ha!”

Shilo turns and walks off. Spirit watches him leave.

Sharper: “Shilo Valiant starts off his Shot of Adrenaline Tournament against whoever the first alternate was. Next!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown opens up backstage as Ravyn Taylor zips up her suitcase and we see a knock at the door. Ravyn looks over as we see Lexi von Aaron, walking into the room wearing only a AJ Helms hoodie, and presumably no bottoms.

Lexi: “Psst!”

Ravyn: “Uh….”

Lexi: “Ravyn!”

Ravyn: “I can hear you. I am also wondering why you’re not wearing pants. The party is supposed to be after the wedding.”

Lexi: “I know that. I just can’t let him see me in the dress.”

Ravyn: “Alright…now the next question. Why are you here?”

Lexi sighs. She then looks down.

Lexi: “I am going to reveal something about me that few know. See…I am a virgin.”

Ravyn: “Everyone knows. You broadcast it on Twitter.”

Lexi: “That’s not the point!”

Lexi pauses again.

Lexi: “Look. I’m saving myself for AJ. Property of AJ here. Only he can touch me. And well, I…”

Ravyn: “Okay…Spit it out. I may be brilliant, but I am not quite a mind-reader for the insane.”

Lexi: “Okay, okay….Do you have anything AJ sized? You know, something to think about while I plan our life together as he says I do?”

Lexi smiles, sweetly, if not completely insanely. Ravyn takes a moment to think about the request.

Ravyn: “Well I guess the first thought in my head is that good that you never tried to peek when you kidnapped him a few weeks ago. Don’t need to worry about that felony charge coming onto your record.”

Lexi: “Anything to help me?”

Ravyn: “Second, I’m not sure if I should be offended or honoured that you think I know AJ’s size. I mean, the average human being, studies have shown to have a five inch penis. The average circumference would be about 5 inches too, at least when erect. Then again, when he’s just hanging there…Although, he could have a micropenis and all of this would be very interesting research-“

Lexi: “He does NOT HAVE A MICROPENIS! He is AJ HELMS! HE IS HUNG LIKE A HORSE!”

Ravyn looks at Lexi, completely unphased but the sudden outburst.

Ravyn: “I think I can work with that.”

Lexi: “Good.”

Ravyn unzips the suitcase and opens it. Lexi looks in.

Lexi: “You know, you have a lot of…items.”

Ravyn: “It’s good to keep up appearances.”

Lexi: “So you’re a whore.”

Ravyn just smiles.

Ravyn: “People think I am. If it helps me, why not have some fun…speaking of which.”

Ravyn then pulls out an oversized dildo that is unnecessarily large.

Lexi: “Uh…”

Ravyn: “There you go.”

Lexi: “That big….”

Ravyn: “That’s apparently AJ’s phallus in your mind. I’ll note that you’re a better woman than me if you can deal with that. I have it more for show.”

Lexi: “So you’re not that big of a whore.”

Ravyn just blinks as Lexi looks at it.

Lexi: “Can….Can I borrow it?”

Ravyn: “You know what. Your first time should be special. This can help you prepare. Consider it my wedding give to you.”

Lexi looks at it and holds it in her hands, almost trying to gauge the weight. She takes it and walks out. Ravyn just chuckles to herself.

Ravyn: “I told Syren she’d try that. She’s now cooking Christmas dinner. People are so predictable.”

Ravyn chuckles some more as we cut away.

Shilo Valiant (0 pts.) vs. Epico Failo (0 pts.)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

The masses shout as "Sin with A Grin" by Shinedown is heard. A growing fog forms near the entryway of the ramp as a spotlight shines down on the ramp. After a few moments, from the fog rises Shilo Valiant, his mask the ever-smile of the jester.

At those words, Valiant slowly locks his arms in the X pattern of "Necro" before thrusting his right hand up to the spotlight, locking up at the raised palm that faces him. As he does, a shower of red sparks rains down upon him, seemingly from the spotlight. Valiant slowly lowers his arm, the colors of his mask glowing amidst the red of the rain and white of the spotlights

Phillips: “The following contest is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament match and has a ten minute time limit. First on his way to the ring, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, he is the Crown Prince of Entertainment, Shilo Valiant!”

The eternally smiling one slowly walks down the ramp, the spotlight following him. He walks around the ring and up the short stairs, climbing under the middle-rope to enter the ring. Standing within its center, the spotlight still cast on him, Shilo Valiant slowly raises his arm once more to the source, his spotlight, looking up at it as his fingers reach for it.

With a one last look at such an image, Shilo commanding the spotlight on him, the lights return to normal.

Sharper: “Shilo Valiant ready to compete and he says he’s going to compete every week until he exhausts his match. He’s scheduled to face Tyler Tucker at Hazardous Envy already. SCW has agreed to give it to him.”

Winters: “Yeah, but tonight, he doesn’t know who the alternate is. Epico Failo was supposed to face him. He’s out. Injured at another show. Damn indy clowns.”

Sharper: “He says he doesn’t care. We’ll find out in mere moments.”

Shilo paces a bit as he waits. We then see the lights dim. "The Left Side" by The Music begins to play. Eli D'Angelo emerges from the back with a solemn and somber look upon his face, his eyes cold and fixed upon the path ahead.

Sharper: “Wait a minute!”

A lantern is held within his outstretched grasp to light the way in the dark, taking his time walking across the stage and onto the ramp before him.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from the D’Angelo Compound, he is Eli D’Angelo!”

Eli's fixed gaze remains as he approaches the ringside area, pausing and staring at what will become his battleground momentarily as though in a trance. The cameraman brave enough to get close enough catches Eli's mouth moving as though muttering to himself, continuing his journey towards the steel ring steps. Eli ascends them slowly, walking along the apron before climbing through the ropes in one fluid motion. Moving into the center of the ring, Eli raises the lantern before his face and stares into it before blowing it out, the house lights coming back on as he places the lantern in a corner of the ring, removing his hat and shaking his long hair loose.

Sharper: “This is a surprising turn of events. We haven’t see D’Angelo since Rise to Greatness.”

Winters: “He’s not exactly an Adrenaline star though.”

Sharper: “His fast-paced, high-impact style is. I don’t think this is what Shilo expected though.”

The bell sounds as Eli walks around the ring. Shilo watches him as a faint “Eli!” chant begins. The two look at one another and lock up in the middle of the ring with a collar and elbow tie-up. Eli then steps back and throws Shilo back. Shilo rolls through and looks up. Eli just smiles a bit through his hair as Shilo gets up. He runs over and goes for a hard right, but feigns it and goes for a kick. Eli blocks it and nails him with a hard right before chopping Shilo. The crowd woos. He chops him again and then kicks him in the ribs. He turns and whips Shilo into the ropes. Shilo bounces off and Eli goes for a clothesline. Shilo ducks and stops. He turns and dropkicks Eli down. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “We should also add that Shilo, in his arrogance, he mentioned earlier, he plans to retire if he doesn’t win this tournament.”

Winters: “Always wanting to put more on the line. All for entertainment.”

Sharper: “Or he’s desperate to keep the spotlight on him. That’s what I think if you ask me. Nice dropkick. Eli down.”

Eli gets up and Shilo comes over and elbows him in the back of the head. He elbows him again and shoves him into the corner. Shilo kicks him in the ribs and hits a chop. The crowd woos. He grabs him and whips him across the ring. Eli hits the corner. Shilo runs after and Eli gets an elbow up. Shilo turns around and Eli runs out and goes for a clothesline. Shilo hits a drop toe hold. He jumps up and hits a leg drop to the back of Eli’s head. Eli rolls over. Shilo runs into the ropes and bounces off and hits the rolling thunder onto Eli. The crowd ohs. Shilo goes for the pin.

Eli kicks out. Eli turns and Shilo grabs him and drags him up and runs him into the corner. Eli turns and Shilo kicks him in the ribs and then again and again. He goes to whip him across, but Eli spins Shilo in. Shilo bounces out of the ropes and Eli lifts him up and hits a sidewalk slam.

Sharper: “Eli with the strength advantage! Sidewalk slam!”

Winters: “Something I didn’t expect to see in these matches.”

Sharper: “But Eli’s impact – that must be what SCW matchmakers saw.”

Eli gets up as Shilo stirs. Eli grabs him and knees him in the ribs. He knees him again and whips him into the ropes, but Shilo spins through and sends Eli in. Eli bounces out and lets out a yell as he runs out and drills Shilo with a vicious crossbody. Shilo hits the mat. Eli goes for the pin.

Eli then grabs him and headbutts him again. Shilo moves to the corner. Eli whips him across. Shilo hits the corner and Eli runs after. Shilo gets his boots up. El staggers back and Shilo runs up past Eli and grabs him by the head and runs up the opposite corner and hits the E-Factor. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Shilo running across and planting Eli. Now the pin! The cover!”

Eli pushes him off and rolls over.

Winters: “Nope!”

Eli stirs and starts to slowly crawl to the ropes. Shilo turns and walks over to him and elbows him in the back. Eli drops to the mat, grabbing the ropes. Shilo gets up and hits another elbow drop. He get up and turns to the apron, exiting to it and climbing up to the top rope. Eli slowly stirs and gets up and Shilo dives off with a flying clothesline. He goes for the pin.

Eli gets his shoulder up. Shilo looks up. He shakes his head and grabs Eli and lifts him up before elbowing him in the back of the head. He then turns and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and Eli suddenly scoops him up and powerslams him down. Eli then gets up and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and hits a running senton backsplash to the chest of Shilo. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Running senton, all that weight across the chest of Shilo!”

Winters: “That’ll force the air out of you. That might do it. An upset to start us off, maybe!”

Eli turns and goes for the pin.

Shilo kicks out. He turns and Eli grabs him and loslwy lifts him up. He looks around and closes his eyes. Shilo winces a bit and Eli rears back before locking in Hand of God. He pushes back as he closes his eyes. Shilo struggles a bit and Eli keeps trying to push him down, but Shilo kicks him in the knee and then reaches up and rakes him in the eyes. Eli staggers back. He turns around and Shilo jumps up and hits a spinning heel kick. Eli hits the mat. He slowly gets up and Shilo grabs Eli from behind and spins him down into the Inside Joke. The crowd ohs. He turns and hooks the leg.

He backs up and slides out of the ring and to the floor. He then backs up and raises his arm.

Phillips: “And here is your winner, via pinfall, Shilo Valiant!”

The crowd boos as Shilo looks into the ring.

Sharper: “Eli D’Angelo threatening Shilo at many points, but Shilo getting the win here. He starts off his tournament the way one would want. A win.”

Winters: “Yeah, and if he’s not screwing around with us about this retiring if he doesn’t win…it’s a good step to avoid that too.”

Eli winces a bit in the ring, rolling over. Shilo backs away as we then cut away.

“Immortals” starts to play as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Dawn Lohan before showing a shot of Kennedy Street and then both with the SCW Television Championship logo.

Sharper: “And when we return, TV Title on the line. Dawn starts for her attempt to win two titles in one night and become a Supreme Champion, here next on Breakdown!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Dawn Lohan vs. Kennedy Street

SCW Television Championship

“Confident” by Demi Lovato echoes from the loud speaker. Dawn Lohan pushes her way through the curtain. She stands in front of the entrance way, she takes a moment to soak in the reaction from the crowd. As the music is coursing through the arena she knows she can't delay the inevitable.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall, for a twenty minute time limit, and is for the SCW Television Championship! First, on her way to the ring, from San Diego, California, she is Dawn Lohan!”

She slowly makes her down to the ring, all business. She makes her way to the ring steps. When she reaches the top of the steps, she walks along the apron. Grabbing the top rope she pulls back, using the momentum she propels herself forward over the top rope into the ring. She immediately springs up. She walks to the turnbuckle, stands on the middle turnbuckle soaking in the atmosphere. She hops off the turnbuckle and remains in the corner until the match gets underway.

Sharper: “Dawn Lohan in her first of two big matches tonight. She’s never held either the Television or the Adrenaline Title, so a big night for her regardless, but if she wins both, she’d become a Supreme Champion.”

Winters: “But that’s easier said than done. Kennedy Street focused. We heard from Christy Matthews earlier.”

Sharper: “The Adrenaline Title match happening later. But Dawn has Kennedy to worry about tonight.”

"Criticize” by Adelita’s Way plays throughout the arena as a robed Kennedy Street slowly comes out from the back. Ethan von Aaron walks out with her. She stands in the entrance way, looking down, then up and out into the arena. Kennedy then drops the rope showing off her beautiful body in her wrestling gear that leaves little to the imagination. The SCW Television Championship is around her waist. One thing to note is a bandage over her eye. Kennedy cracks a sexy smirk as Ethan Von Aaron claps, she raises her right arm in the air looking up into the rafters as the shower of fireworks rain down behind her.

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Beverly Hills, California, accompanied by Ethan von Aaron, Maximillian and Carlos, she is the SCW Television Champion, Kennedy Street!”

Carlos quickly comes out and begins to drop rose petals on the ground Kennedy walks on while the monstrous Maximilian follows behind. The crowd gives some cheers as she looks over to the fans and smirks, interacting with them, posing along the way to entice them a bit by blowing kisses and shaking her ass. Ethan leads her down to the ring as she arrives at the apron, Maximilian lifts her up on the apron, Carlos rolls in and continues to throw Rose Petals on the ground Keenie walks on as she steps through the ropes stopping for a second and looks out biting the bottom of her lip and stroking the ropes as she gets into the ring taking her time….

She walks to the ropes and climbs to the second turnbuckle and looks around smiling while posing for the flash photography while Ethan again claps. Kennedy jumps down smiling to the crowd and waves her hair to the side as she stands in the corner, extending her long muscular legs, waving her opponent and referee off as she does her pre-match stretches as Ethan instructs the referee how to properly handle a Keenie match. After she is done Kennedy pulls up her knee pads and places them firmly on her knees, flings back her long blonde hair and turns around to lean against the corner signaling the referee to come over but handing him the Television Title. He steps back and raises the title. The SCW Television Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner.

Sharper: “Television Title on the line. Kennedy Street coming out of a referee stoppage at the hands of Donovan Kayl. A hard fought match.”

Winters: “A lot of people told me they gained some respect for Kennedy Street. So there’s something.”

Sharper: “She’s growing up in front of us it seems.”

The bell sounds. Dawn and Kennedy look at one another. Kennedy extends her arm. Dawn high-fives her as they circle. They then lunge and lock up with a collar and elbow tie-up in the middle of the ring. Dawn and Kennedy push back on one another before Kennedy turns and moves into a side headlock. Dawn pulls her back in and into the ropes before firing her across. Kennedy bounces off. Dawn steps forward and Kennedy shoulders her down. Dawn looks up. Kennedy runs into the ropes.

Kennedy blocks it and turns into a hip toss of her own. Dawn gets up and runs at Kennedy. Kennedy hits another hip toss. Dawn hits the mat. She gets up and Kennedy snapmares her over. She then steps back and then hits a neck whip. The crowd roars as Dawn rolls over to the ropes, holding her neck.

Sharper: “And Kennedy early on, in control. Dawn has to be careful here.”

Winters: “Former tag champs. They know each other well. Have had issues in the past. Seem to be at least civil with each other. Eff that. Go after one another. A title is on the line.”

Dawn starts to get up and Kennedy grabs her and whips her into the ropes. She bounces off and Kennedy elbows her down. Kennedy goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Nearfall. Those patented Street leg drops not enough though.”

Winters: “And Kennedy thought it may be and every time you think you get them down and don’t, it wears on you.”

Dawn slowly stirs as Kennedy grabs her and wrenches her arm and then pulls her in and scoop slams her down. Kennedy turns and moves to the corner. She backs up before running over and going for a running knee drop, but Dawn moves out of the way. Kennedy rolls through. She gets up and turns back to Dawn and Dawn elbows her in the ribs.

Sharper: “I don’t believe it! PUNK HAZARD coming out again! Enough to get the match thrown out. All while Dawn may have had Kennedy. Kennedy was stirring. All to cause more doubt and ensure neither get what they want.”

The crowd boos loudly. Alexis Quinne backs up as Ethan tries to get to her before noticing Kennedy is down. He turns and rolls into the ring and goes over to Kennedy and checks on her.

COMMERCIALS

We open up backstage to see Shawn Winters walking down the tunnel, having finished his work for the night. Ace Marshall then walks up to him. Ace goes to embrace him and Shawn puts his hand up.

Shawn: “Bro, you been drinking?”

Ace: “No…I just assumed this is how friends say hi. Most of my friends have boobs, so uh…it’s a bit more straight forward.”

Shawn shakes his head.

Ace: “Okay, I’ll cut to the chase. You’re done for the night, right?”

Shawn: “Yeah.”

Ace: “Well I need a best man.”

Shawn: “Wait…you just now realized that. You’re getting married in like an hour and a half. If that.”

Ace: “Yeah, well, a few things slipped through the cracks. Not my fault that list didn’t have a Russian mail order best man…”

Shawn rolls his eyes.

Ace: “Plus, AJ would be awkward given that I just had a war with his mom and Lexi von Aaron has her own plans for him.”

Shawn and Ace then both nod.

Shawn: “Please tell me there’s at least a ring, man.”

Ace: “That’s a Christina question. I just plan to be generally sober. Cass…we’ll see about that.”

Shawn: “You’re something else, you know.”

Ace: “I’ll buy your drinks for the night.”

Shawn: “Done. I’ll be there.”

Ace: “Great. Suits are in the locker room down the hall-“

Shawn: “Nah…I’m fine wearing this.”

Ace: “Works for me.”

Ace turns and walks off with Shawn as we cut away.

“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play.

This is followed by a shot of Selena Frost locking the Frost’s Bite on Angelica Jones before showing Donovan Kayl hitting the Point Blank on CHBK.

"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 then see a shot of Alexis Quinne and PUNK HAZARD carrying their banner.

"Cause we could be immortals, immortals

Immor immortals,
immor immortals
Immortals"

We then see a shot of Merrick Wiseman handcuffing Ravyn Taylor before showing Adrenaline Rush in the ring.

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

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown here in Detroit. Adam Sharper, now joined by Jonathan Knots and we have plenty to come tonight, including two weddings it seems.”

Knots: “True love may prosper! Now just get AJ out here and let’s get this going.”

Sharper: “Plenty more to come tonight. Dawn Lohan is going to look to walk away with at least one title tonight as she faces Christy Matthews for the Adrenaline Title in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament later tonight.”

"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, a serious look on her face.

Sharper: “We were wondering when we would hear from Selena Frost. A lot on her mind, both regarding the SCW World Championship which she will challenge for at End of the Year Special and for her friend, Sienna Swann.”

Knots: “Yeah and Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster did some damage. More psychological than anything, but still, it’s there. Sienna was hurt. Selena went with her. Perhaps this is the time she steps away from her title shot.”

Sharper: “Stop it.”

Looking around the arena, Selena steps up the steel steps and enters into the ring. She then walks across the ring and over to the opposite corner. She asks for a microphone. Jason Phillips hands her one and she turns back to the middle of the ring. She looks around as the crowd cheers for her. Her music fades out and she listens to the roar of the crowd for a moment before beginning to speak.

Selena: “It has been a whirlwind couple of weeks for me. I watched one of my best friends see her career flash before her eyes. I had to be in the hospital, next to her, watching her fight back tears as she tried moment after moment to make sure she had feeling in her hands, her feet, her limbs….and then the joy when it all returned. But it’s a moment that should never have occurred and while I am proud to stand here and support that the piledriver has been banned, this is a bit too little too late.”

The crowd buzzes. Selena looks down and shakes her head.

Selena: “I should be out here and talking about how proud I am to be one of the fan’s choices to compete for the World Title at the End of the Year Special. While I have said I’m not sure I’m ready, you all have that faith in me. But right now, that’s not where my head is at. I am about to face Alexis Quinne, but all I can think about is Sienna Swann’s face when she was loaded into the ambulance and the fact that Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster are to blame.”

The crowd boos Bree and Blake.

Selena: “I’ve even met with Kelcey Wallace. Having dinner with her as we cleared the air and spent our time discussing our growing hatred for two people who do not deserve to be in this ring. And I am focusing on my pure hatred for them, True Believers. Not the opportunity you helped me get…and I don’t know if I like it. But I can say this…I will not be letting Blake Mason or Bree Lancaster get away with this and I will make sure at some point I get my hands on them and teach them a lesson that frankly needs to be taught-“

"When Money Comes, When Money Comes”

The crowd boos as “G.O.A.T.” by CFO$ featuring Will Roush plays. Selena turns and glares at the entrance way as Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster step out from the back, holding the SCW World Tag Team Championships over their shoulders. The crowd boos more.

Sharper: “And there are your Tag Team Champions!”

Knots: “They came out last, took advantage, and beat Honour Code to end their hopes of walking out champs!”

Sharper: “And it capped off an eventful as for them, I hate to put this way, but successful night. Sienna Swann in the hospital and then Tag Team Gold.”

Knots: “And we’ve not heard from them about the ban. I’d rather hear from them than Selena spout off more!”

Bree and Blake start to walk to the ring, hand in hand as the crowd boos. Selena just watches them. Blake just smiles as Bree watches the crowd. They reach the steel steps and Blake walks up them before extending her hand and Bree Lancaster walks up them herself too, mask still on her face. Blake enters and holds the ropes for Bree. Bree then steps in and watches Selena. Blake walks past Selena as Selena watches him. Blake then asks for a microphone for himself. He’s handed one and he turns back as Bree walks around the ring too. Selena turns around and watches them. Blake smiles.

Selena: “Give me one reason why I shouldn’t try and do more damage to Bree…or give you something to think about?”

Blake: “Because it’s not in your nature…I mean, how would you spin that to all of the little girls that look up to you. That want to look like you. That your big Christmas message is violence. Not very becoming for a Disney knockoff-“

Selena steps forward. Blake steps back.

Blake: “Sorry…sorry…you deserve something more creative. Let me think for a moment….Ah yes, I got it. Loser. Really don’t need to be more creative, but frankly, come New Year’s Eve, we’ve already won in terms of you. You’re going to be so focused on us that you’ll not win the title. I’m pretty sure that makes us a hero to some.”

Selena: “I never said that.”

Blake: “But you didn’t need to. Just like how something else didn’t need to be said….D’s ban is something interesting. It certainly affects me. I mean, that’s what has made me as successful as I have been. And trust me, it felt good to take out Chris Cannon and it felt even better to drop Sienna on her head. But let’s face it, the fine….that’s pocket change to me. I could sneeze and it would fall out of my nose and I could give it some hungry children and make their Christmas. Instead….”

Blake turns to Bree.

Blake: “Some of that pocket change made sure Bree and I stand here as the classiest champions in SCW history. Something not even Perfection can stop, as she won’t find someone stupid enough to stand with her against us. And furthermore, we know one other thing.”

Selena just looks at Blake and shakes her head.

Selena: “What’s that?”

Blake: “The world knows that Kelcey Wallace can get her attempt at revenge. She’ll fail miserably. But that’s on January 22 at Hazardous Envy.”

Blake smiles.

Blake: “That means going by the statement, while the move is banned…nothing stops me from really just making sure my last two count-“

Blake then kicks Selena in the ribs. She winces and goes to swing, but Bree blocks it and knees her in the ribs. They then club away on Selena as the crowd boos loudly.

Sharper: “Last two count…what the hell…no! Don’t tell me!”

Knots: “I think they’ve got one planned for Selena!”

Selena struggles a bit more and Bree gets up and stomps her in the head as Blake continues to club her in the back. Selena drops down and covers up as Blake gets up and Blake and Bree start to stomp away on Selena some. Blake gets up and takes off his blazer and throws it down. He asks Bree to hold her up. Bree grabs Selena and pulls her up as Blake grabs her and places her head between his legs. The crowd boos loudly.

Sharper: “No! Don’t do it! Don’t do it!”

Blake goes to lift her up, but Selena fights off and Bree tries to lift her up, but Selena kicks her off. Blake drops her down and Selena nails him in the shin and then again before pushing back and rolling out of the ring. She backs away from the ring, stunned and looking at Blake and Bree as Bree just turns around and Blake just smirks. Blake turns and gets Bree’s attention as Selena backs up.

Sharper: “Selena just getting out of harm’s way. She knows she can’t deal with both champions at the same time-“

Knots: “She may have to! Look! Quinne!”

Sharper: “Wait a minute! Quinne! Grundy!”

Quinne and Grundy run out from the back from behind and Grundy grabs Selena as Quinne cuffs her in the back of the head. Grundy runs her forward and rolls her into the ring. Selena holds her head in pain. Quinne just salutes Blake as Blake nods. Quinne backs away as Grundy looks in the ring.

Sharper: “I don’t believe it! Quinne knows this will eliminate one possible challenger for her at End of the Year Special! What of her speech two weeks ago about cower!”

Knots: “She’s not the coward. Selena was running away! Face you destiny!”

Sharper: “The hell is wrong with you?! Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster are trying to injure her!”

Selena stirs as Bree grabs her and elbows her in the back of the head. She falls back down. Blake grabs her and pulls her up as Alexis backs up and smiles. Grundy backs up too and the crowd roars as Shawn Mason and Kelcey Wallace run out from the back. Shaun Cruze and AJ Helms are a few feet behind. The crowd roars. Grundy turns and gets Alexis’ attention. She turns and AJ Helms nails her with a clothesline for good measure as Shawn and Kelcey run back. Shaun runs over and nails Grundy with a shot, knocking him down. The crowd roars. Blake throws Selena down as Bree bails the ring. Blake exits too. Kelcey and Shawn Mason slide in and both focus on Blake. AJ and Shaun quickly get into the ring too and get up, turning their attention to Bree. The crowd cheers as Kelcey and Shawn watch Blake. Blake just smirks as he walks around the ring. Bree runs around and joins Blake. Blake just smiles as they get to the entrance way.

Blake: “Still got two left…Still gonna make them count!”

Shawn starts to yell at Blake as Shaun Cruze does the same. Kelcey Wallace meanwhile checks on Selena as Selena starts to get up.

Sharper: “Kelcey Wallace and Shawn Mason. They’ve come out to stop this. Honour Code too!”

Knots: “AJ got a shot in on Quinne! Almost took her head off!”

Sharper: “AJ Helms and Alexis Quinne could face at End of the Year Special too. And Shawn Mason wants his hands on Blake. Shaun Cruze too. Selena Frost. All of them.”

Knots: “Why not Bree? Wait…Bree’s too classy! I got it!”

Sharper: “Selena just saved. She’s up and not happy. My god…what a volatile situation here!”

Blake and Bree continue to back up as Quinne starts to get up and Grundy does too. Kelcey and Selena turn to the rampway as Honour Code and Shawn Mason do the same. Shawn Mason even sits on the middle rope and invites them in. The B&B Experience however continue to retreat. Quinne and Grundy just glare at the ring as we cut away.

We open up backstage to see Kelcey Wallace, Shawn Mason and Selena Frost standing backstage.

Selena: “Look…thanks.”

Kelcey: “We’re just happy we’re watching. Now we know what they’re planning.”

Shawn: “And we know just how pathetic they are. I think we need to firm up our strategy.”

Selena just nods.

Shawn: “After me.”

Selena and Kelcey lock eyes briefly before they walk off together.

Dark Ninja Jr. (0 pts.) vs. Ikiro Yoshida

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

Red and White lights begin to flash wildly when the opening to Ikusa by Wagakki Band begins to play over the P.A System. The SCW fans rise to their feet casting their eyes to the stage where the curtains part. A sudden pause befalls the arena until a man walks out out with a confident swagger in his step, Ikiro Yoshida… He wears his trademark red eye patch with a gold dragon emblazoned onto it along with his long sleeved jacket. A smirk appears on the Japanese superstar’s lips before he spins around once and drops down to one knee, both his arms outstretched while he looks down at the ground…

Phillips: “The following contest is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament match and has a ten minute time limit. First, hailing from the Fukushima prefecture, Japan… He weighs in at two-hundred and thirty-nine pounds… IKIROOO YOSSSSHIIIDAAAA!!!”

The fans pop for the Japanese superstar, he leaps back up onto his feet and reaches into his jacket to remove what looks to be a pink plush Yoshi doll… He raises it up above his head with a grin before lowering his arm and walking down towards the ring with that same confident swagger from before.

Ikiro quickly runs to the ring and slides in, following that up with a quicker roll to a knee. Ikiro sits the plush doll in front of him as he appears to talk to it… After kissing the tip of his index and forefinger, he places them on the forehead of the doll before picking it up and taking it to the corner where he sits it. Once removing his jacket, he hands it to the ring crew and begins to stretch before the bell.

Sharper: “This could be a unique match. Both unique personalities.”

Knots: “Yeah. But personality is what gets you here. Competing at a high level is what keeps you here.”

The violins of After life by Avenged Seven fold hit as Smoke fills the entrance. Dark Ninja jr. steps out the entrance. He is wearing a Black leather jacket with neon green pieces of fabric hanging from the arms, over his ring gear which is black t-shirt and black and green wrestling pants. Around his waist is wearing the WAS Turbo Omni Magnificent Title belt. He walks to the ring with a smug egotistical expression that is mostly hidden from beneath his mask.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from parts unknown, he is Dark Ninja Jr.”

As he walks to the ring he gives fans high fives and too sweets to those that throw it up. When he reaches the ring, he climbs the rings steps leaps up on to the top rope and does a 450 and lands on his feet. He says to the camera with a chuckle, before shrugging and then throwing a superkick at the camera but stopping just before he hits it.

Knots: “I like this guy!”

Sharper: “He’s got an attitude. A certain feeling that he’s better than most. We’ll see here tonight in this one.”

The bell sounds. Dark Ninja Jr. flips forward and to his feet and right into the face of Yoshida. Yoshida smiles before nailing Ninja with a hard right. The crowd roars. Yoshida chops him and kicks him in the ribs. He whips Dark Ninja into the ropes. Ninja jumps to the middle rope and dives back with a crossbody, but Yoshida turns and forces him down to the mat, chest first. He then jumps up and hits a double stomp to his back. Yoshida steps forward and smiles as Ninja rolls over. He then starts to get up and Ninja gets up in the corner. Yoshida runs after him and yells up and hits a high knee in the corner. Ninja falls back to a seated position. Yoshida turns and pulls out his die.

Sharper: “Yoshida moving fast. Going to see what he turns up here.”

Knots: “Ninja may have gone too fast in his start here.”

Yoshida rolls the die and runs over to sees what it is. He then runs over to Dark Ninja, but Dark Ninja Jr. drops down and quickly dropkicks him in the shin. Yoshida goes face first into the middle turnbuckle. Yoshida pops up and turns around and Dark Ninja throws him overhead with a northern lights suplex into a bridge.

Yoshida kicks out. He rolls over and starts to get up. Dark Ninja Jr. hits a crotch chop before Yoshida turns and Dark Ninja hits a spinning back kick to his ribs. He whips Yoshida into the ropes. He bounces off and Ninja kicks him in the ribs before running to the ropes, jumping to the top rope and diving back and taking Yoshida down with a hurricanrana into a pin.

Yoshida kicks out.

Sharper: “Nice hurricanrana. Only two for Dark Ninja Jr.”

Knots: “Yeah, but a close one.”

Sharper: “Here comes Dark Ninja again.”

Dark Ninja Jr. gets up and grabs Yoshida. He goes to whip him into the corner. Dark Ninja runs after him and Yoshida gets an elbow up. Dark Ninja staggers back and Yoshida runs out and hits a high knee, knocking Dark Ninja Jr. down. Ninja gets up and Yoshida grabs him and kicks him in the ribs. He then hits a snap suplex. He rolls over, holding onto him and turns before throwing him chest first into the corner. Dark Ninja Jr. turns around and Yoshida lifts him up onto his shoulders. Dark Ninja Jr. however rakes his eyes and slides back. Yoshida turns around and Dark Ninja Jr. blasts him with a superkick. Dark Ninja Jr then throws up the wolfpack sign as Yoshida stirs. He starts to get up and Dark Ninja runs into the ropes, jumps to the top rope and dives back, grabbing Yoshida’s head and hitting the Kitana Slice.

Sharper: “Oh! Springboard cutter! Dark Ninja Jr. got all of it.”

Knots: “And Yoshida down to the mat. A cover!”

Dark Ninja Jr. covers Yoshida.

The crowd roars and the bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, Dark Ninja Jr.!”

Sharper: “Stunning! Dark Ninja Jr. with the upset!”

Knots: “Yoshida caught by that superkick. That dazed him. The cutter did it and Dark Ninja Jr. with two points!”

Dark Ninja Jr. gets up and smiles as he ignores the referee, going over to the corner. He crotch chops again and looks around and smiles as we cut away.

We see Katie Steward and Gigi Steward standing backstage. Katie just is pacing back and forth.

Katie: “We defeated the so-called dominant team. Ended their dominance. We still have it.”

Katie turns to Gigi.

Katie: “Gigi! We need to figure out how we’re getting a shot at the World Tag Team Championship. Sasha likes you. Tell her we defeated DoD. We should get the next shot.”

Gigi: “Well I…”

Katie: “She’s here. She’s got to be. Probably a sucker for that Ace Marshall wedding. I remember Greaternity saying all sort of things.”

Gigi: “Uh, that was years ago-“

Katie: “Just go find her. This plan is too perfect.”

Katie smiles as Gigi just nods and steps out of the room. She then walks forward as Maddy Steward walks over to her. The crowd boos a bit more.

Maddy: “So uh…”

Gigi: “Didn’t tell her. She’ll find out after the show I guess.”

Maddy: “Well what about the Tag Titles?”

Gigi: “That part we’ll figure out later.”

Gigi and Maddy then head off.

Sharper: “Gigi Steward will face off against Konrad Raab, next, here on Breakdown!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Konrad Raab vs. Gigi Steward

“Real Wild Child” plays throughout the arena as the fans begin to boo. Gigi Steward steps out behind the curtain and walks onto the stage in her wrestling gear and wearing her Team Desire hooded. Maddy Steward walks out with her. She strikes a pose on the stage and holds her hand showing off a bedazzled skeleton hand jewelry and she makes a fist with it. She gives a cold blooded stare at the wrestling getting herself psyched. She then marches onward to the ring. She takes off her jacket and drops it on the aisle for ring crew to pick it up. She walks around the ring and marches up the ring steps and enters the ring. She shouts at the crowd and throws her arms up in the air just trying to get a reaction for them. Gigi smirks at the main camera and retreats to her corner. Maddy Steward goes to her corner.

Phillips: “From Los Angeles, California….She is the Princess of Wrestling….Gigi Steward!!!”

Sharper: “This contest will see Gigi Steward taking on Konrad Raab. Gigi making her down to the ring first. It will be interesting match up of styles to say the least.”

Knots: “Raab will be the big and burly idiot while Gigi outclasses him in every way. She is a Steward for crying out loud. She is a descendant of a Goddess.”

Cold as Ice by M.O.P plays over the sound system as Konrad comes out through the curtain just wearing his blue and white mask with white hair along with his wrestling trousers with his nickname The Iceman on the front of them with Pit Bull Energy logos on the side of his trousers with black gloves on both of his hands as he wears a black armband on his right arm with the German flag on one side and Berlin flag on the other side in memory to the victims who lost their lives from Terriorist attacks in Berlin on Monday.

Phillips: “From Cologne, Germany, he is The Iceman, Konrad Raab!”

He then high fives the fans as he goes up the stairs before going in-between the ropes and does a holdup on each turnbuckle and everyone cheers him as he points on his armband to the crowd before getting down from the turnbuckle and does a few boxing punches to the cameras before he looks at Gigi, waiting for the match to start.

Sharper: “Konrad Raab, the man who has taken Shilo Valiant and Vixen Cain to their limits in past title matches. He came up short in those contests just as he did going against Brett Sinclaire at Hell Hath No Fury. He may have come up short, but one thing is for sure. Raab put up one hell of a fight.”

Knots: “That is all well and good, but what is the point in fighting if you can’t pull off the big wins? I mean, you’d think something would click somewhere. Raab isn’t a Steward. Stewards are royalty no matter what.”

The ref calls for the bell as Raab steps into the center of the ring. Gigi storms up to him as Raab lifts his hand in the air, looking to lock up but instead, Gigi smirks and slaps him hard across the face. Raab rubs his jaw as the crowd boos while Gigi embraces the jeers, maintaining her smirk.

Sharper: “She definitely has a few of Katie’s traits to say the least.”

Knots: “Of course. She is of Goddess blood. She is absolutely stunning.”

Sharper: “You are getting beyond ridiculous. This is wrestling, not a damned beauty pageant.”

Raab once again tries to lock up and Gigi once again goes to slap Raab across the face, but this time, Raab catches her arm. Raab smirks at Gigi who shakes her head and glares at him. Raab quickly takes her down with a short arm clothesline. Gigi hits the mat and Raab goes for a quick cover.

Gigi kicks out.

Knots: “Who does Raab think he is? You don’t do that to royalty. Jesus Christ, man!”

Sharper: “I guess I have to remind you that this is wrestling. You clothesline royalty or Jesus if you have to in order to win.”

Knots: “Such blasphemy. You should be ashamed of yourself.”

Gigi gets to her feet, only for Raab to take her down with an arm drag. Raab maintains control on the arm, keeping it pinned behind Gigi’s back as he slowly stands to his feet. Gigi gets to her feet as well. She begins to fight back, nailing shots to the ribs. Raab breaks the hold and staggers back a bit. Gigi goes for a clothesline of her own, but Raab quickly dunks it, grabs her and drops her with a back body suplex before going for another cover.

Gigi kicks out once more. Raab looks at the ref who reassures him it was a two count. Raab shakes his head before climbing to his feet.

Sharper: “Raab showing some frustration early on. He wants the win for sure, but Gigi has shown throughout her career that she can absorb a lot of punishment and keep on fighting back.”

Knots: “At least you’re now praising Gigi, like you should have been from the get go.”

Sharper: “Both of these athletes are extremely talented. I never said anything differently. I am not one for cheating however or cheap shots which Gigi used at the beginning of the match.”

Knots: “I don’t know about cheap. Raab saw it coming. Totally.”

Raab lifts Gigi to her feet but Gigi fires away with a European uppercut, which staggers Raab. Gigi then leaps up and connects with a dropkick, which sends Raab into the ropes. Raab bounces off of the ropes, only for Gigi to nail him with a quick enziguri. Raab hits the mat and Gigi goes for a cover.

1

Raab kicks out. Raab gets to one knee only for Gigi to hit a spin kick to the side of the head before rolling him up going for a pin, this time using the tights though the referee can’t see this.

Sharper: “You have got to be kidding me.”

Knots: “I don’t see what you’re griping about, Adam.”

Raab manages to kick out. He rolls away from her, as Gigi argues with the referee, saying she pinned Raab. The crowd boos. Gigi leans into the ropes and jaws with the crowd, who continue to boo her.

Sharper: “Gigi tried to steal the win using the tights. That is straight out of the Steward wrestling book.”

Knots: “You read that too?”

Raab uses the ropes to pull himself up, only Gigi to walk up behind him and dropkick him in the back of the legs. Raab hits the mat. Gigi quickly climbs the top rope and leaps off, connecting with a frog splash. She goes for the cover.

Raab kicks out. Raab rolls over onto his stomach. He pushes himself off of the mat, only for Gigi to run up and connect with a kick to the ribs. Raab rolls away while the crowd boos Gigi’s actions. Raab finally manages to get to his feet, only for Gigi to run up, leaping into the air and taking him down with a jumping DDT. Gigi then goes for another cover.

Raab shoots the shoulder up and rolls away. Gigi begins to walk around the ring, gloating as the crowd showers her in boos. Raab slams his fist down on the mat, looking very frustrated.

Knots: “I told you Gigi was going to outclass this guy. She is showing that she is superior. Raab needs to go ahead and realize that he is facing a Goddess.”

Sharper: “Raab is very frustrated as you can see folks. Gigi is showing her mean streak, showing that she will do whatever to pick up the victory. Raab may have to change a few things if he wants to get that much needed win.”

Raab gets to his feet as Gigi charges towards him. She leaps in the air, but Raab catches her and plants her with the Iceinator, which causes the crowd to explode with cheers. Raab hooks the leg.

Gigi kicks out. Raab leans down to grab Gigi, but she manages to roll him up into a small package.

Raab kicks out. Gigi gets to her feet first. Raab gets to one knee, only for Gigi to run up, connecting with a running knee smash. Gigi gets to her feet and begins to stalk Raab who is slowly getting to his feet, shaking the cobwebs off as he does. Raab gets to his feet, but Gigi grabs his arms, spinning him around to go for the Platinum Blonde, but Raab shoves her away, sending her into the ropes. Gigi bounces off of the ropes, going for a flying clothesline but Raab catches her and plants Gigi with a spinebuster.

Sharper: “I think Raab heard what I had to say. He is showing a bit more aggression now and it seems to be paying off.”

Knots: “If that’s the case then I think I speak for everyone when I say you should stop talking.”

Gigi slowly pushes herself up as Raab keeps his eyes on her. Gigi gets to her feet and slowly turns around only for Raab to grab her and plant her with the Ice Storm. The crowd erupts in cheers as Raab hooks the leg and the ref begins the count.

The ref calls for the bell as “Cold as Ice” begins to play through the loud speakers. Raab gets to his feet as the ref lifts his hand in the air. Maddy enters the ring and goes to check on Gigi.

Sharper: “Raab getting a big win here tonight. He showed frustration as Gigi held the upperhand for quite some time, using cheap tactics, but in the end, Raab was able to turn it around and pick up the victory.”

We then see a shot of Amy Chastaine sitting backstage drinking some water as Shane Lawson sits with her.

Amy: “This is weird.”

Shane: “Why? Nice to have a night off?”

Amy: “That’s the thing. I don’t get night’s off. I’ll be going through the tournament at a hell of a pace later, but right now…no Merrick…no Vixen.”

Shane: “Well their plan didn’t exactly work out.”

Amy: “So that means they’re desperate. With everything else going on…But I heard they’re not even here. SCW was happy to even tell them to stay home.”

Shane: “Do you blame them there? They tried to con the boss. That’s a bad move no matter what.”

Amy: “You took him out.”

Shane: “He understood.”

Amy: “Yeah…”

Shane: “Either way, if they’re not here. Enjoy the night off. Enjoy not having to look over your shoulder for once. You and I both know they’re few and far between.”

Amy: “Yeah…but knowing them. I know Vixen Cain won’t be done with me and frankly, I just wonder what they’re going to do next.”

Shane: “Worry about that when it happens. Now let’s find Kara. Figure out our plans from later.”

Amy nods and Shane gets up, helps Amy up. They head off. We then notice someone watching from the distance quickly turn and walk off in the opposite direction, glancing back briefly before the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

The lights dim to a crimson red color throughout the arena. A high pitched female voice can be heard over the PA speakers…

"I Lost My Miiiiiiind..."

The image of a red dragon appears on the Tron. The dragon is engulfed in flames as it is replaced by a phoenix. Then that too goes up in flames as it is replaced by an image of Angelica Jones. The big screen shows images of Angelica Jones delivering the Hot Shot and the Divine Impact to various competitors. Angelica then steps out onto the stage, not wearing her normal attire. Instead, she is wearing jeans, a Sisterhood t-shirt and fists are taped up. She doesn’t stop at the stage either and just storms down to the ring.

Sharper: “Angelica Jones storming down to the ring. We heard earlier in the day she had some unfinished business.”

Knots: “Well she looks ready for a fight. Fists taped. Maybe she’s going to finish up that underground fighting ring she’s never mentioned.”

Sharper: “Yes…or maybe we can take a guess. Kayla Jones is not here. She’s convalescing at home in Boston, preparing for her own wedding. Angelica Jones probably wants to get her hands on Jake Starr!”

Knots: “Oh that.”

Angelica grabs at the ropes and pulls herself up. She then enters the ring and walks across, demanding a microphone. Jason Phillips walks over and hands her one and she takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring.

Angelica: “Something happened at Hell Hath No Fury and it’s got me realizing that tonight, I end something.”

Angelica paces a bit as the crowd roars.

Angelica: “Jake Starr took a steel chair and hit Kayla right between the shoulder blades, causing her neck issues to flair out and potentially ending my sister’s career and all because he’s nothing more than a jackass.”

The crowd roars. Angelica stops and turns to the camera.

Angelica: “And at that moment, while I was able to fight him still, I knew that if we ever want to hold the SCW Tag Team Championships…we need to give Jake Starr the ass-kicking his deserves, so I feel like ending 2016 on the right now. Starr!”

Angelica turns to the entrance way.

Angelica: “Grab your chair, and come on out here and try and take me out. I want a fight. Not a match. A fight. Get your ass out here and let’s finish this!”

Angelica throws the microphone down. Angelica paces a bit.

Sharper: “Jake Starr blamed Angelica Jones for costing him the US Title in the Chamber match at Under Attack. Starr did eliminate the Sisterhood in the Tag Team Turmoil. Everything coming to a head.”

Knots: “And Angelica wants a fight. If I’m Starr, get the hell out of here. No need to even bother with this.”

Sharper: “I don’t know what to think. The Starr of old had the pride to necessitate coming out here, but the addition of that chair and his own damn attitude, I don’t know what to expect here.”

Angelica Jones continues to pace. A few more moments pass as the crowd buzzes. A faint “Angelica” chant begins before we then see Jake Starr walk out from the back, holding his chair as “This Fire Burns” starts to play part way through. Angelica Jones turns to the entrance way. Starr just shakes his head as he holds up the chair. The camera gets close up to him and catches some of what he’s saying.

Starr: “You want to spend Christmas in a head trauma ward. That’s fine by me.”

Starr then runs towards the ring and Angelica backs up, allowing him an opportunity to get in. The crowd roars as Starr slides in. He then gets up and Angelica watches him as Starr then throws the chair at her. She braces it with her forearms and Starr then suddenly throws powder into her eyes. The crowd ohs and boos.

Sharper: “Starr coming out and come on!”

Knots: “He had a plan!”

Sharper: “Chair to the face. Powder if countered! God damn it!”

Starr then kicks her in the ribs and nails her with a hard right and then another and another before knocking her through the ropes. She drops down to the floor and staggers to the announce tables. Starr just sighs as he grabs the chair and rolls to the floor. He then turns and lifts the chair up and Angelica kicks him in the ribs. He drops the chair. She then nails him with a hard right and then another. Starr staggers back. Angelica turns and grabs Knots’ water and pours it over her face, blinking a bit to get the powder out of her face.

Knots: “Hey! That’s my water! I brought it myself! You own me twenty bucks!”

Sharper: “Using it to get that powder out of her eyes. There is no official out here. Here comes Jake now!”

Starr turns around and Angelica turns and nails him in the head with the waterbottle. Angelica then grabs Starr and spins him around and into the barricade. Angelica walks over towards Starr and Starr kicks her in the ribs. He nails her with a shot and then another and another. Angelica staggers back. Starr then grabs her and goes to whip her hard into the barricade, but Angelica spins through and sends Starr in and Starr goes up and over the barricade and to the contract. The crowd roars. Angelica turns and walks over and climbs over the barricade.

Sharper: “Starr sent into the crowd!”

Knots: “Okay! Time for security! We need security to stop this!”

Angelica steps forward as Starr starts to get up and Angelica boots him in the face. He falls over. Angelica dives onto him and nails him with hard right hands to the forehead with her taped fists. Starr takes shot after shot after shot and Starr struggles. Angelica then gets up and looks up. She then tells some of the fans to move out of the way. A number of them oblige as Angelica grabs Starr and lifts him up before turning and spinning him around and throwing him into the chairs. None of them fall over as they’re all locked into place, but Starr hits them and falls over to the floor in pain. Angelica walks over and grabs him and starts to dig into his face. The crowd around yells and cheers as Starr yells out in pain.

Sharper: “Angelica just digging at the eyes. Digging at the face! Trying to enact whatever punishment she can.”

Knots: “In this sea of idiots! Here in Detroit! They’re probably going through Starr’s pants for rent money!”

Angelica keeps grinding and Starr nails her in the ribs. She staggers out. Starr pulls himself up and walks over and nails her with a hard right. He nails her again and grabs her and drags her along the area before Angelica suddenly takes him down with a hip throw. He rolls over and Angelica grabs him again and nails him with repeated right hands to the face again. Starr turns and start to pull away. Angelica grabs him and drives him face first into the back of one of the chairs. He falls back and rolls over. He then rolls over again as we see a cut over his right eye. He starts to get up and Angelica grabs him and clubs him again and then again before Starr elbows her in the jaw. He scoops her up and slams her on the concrete. Angelica winces and rolls over in a bit of pain. Starr turns and looks at her as Angelica glares at him and starts to get up. Starr then jogs off as the crowd boos. Angelica gets up and then starts to crawl up to her feet before getting up. Starr then runs faster as Angelica bolts after him. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Starr running! He realizes what he’s gotten into!”

Knots: “Run and get security or someone in her way. Throw some barrels or something.”

Sharper: “Some barrels.”

Knots: “Come on! We’ve got to have lots of stuff back there that’ll slow Angelica down.”

Sharper: “Angelica Jones out for blood. Already busted Jake open. And now running after him into the back.”

We got to a wide shot to see Starr climb over the barricade and trip up before getting up and running through one of the side curtains. Angelica leaps over it and runs after Starr. The crowd buzzes and then boos as we just continue to show the now empty floor area by the stage. A few moments pass before we see a camera running down a hallway as we see Jake Starr running forward. He looks around and turns and runs into one room. Angelica turns and looks around before seeing the cameraman and turns and runs in the same room after Starr. We hear the sound of yelling girls as the cameraman gets in and we see Starr throwing a bridesmaid dress at Angelica. She turns and throws it down and Starr grabs a makeup kit and turns to nail her, but Angelica ducks and nails Starr some more and then again and again. She turns and grabs him and turns and throws him into the mirror of the make-up table, cracking it. He falls onto the top of it and to the floor as the makeup table then falls over onto Starr. Angelica backs up. Starr crawls out from under it as Angelica nails him again. He falls over and into another rack of dresses.

Knots: “No! Not the dresses!”

Sharper: “Starr, a bloody mess and now into the wedding dresses!”

Starr turns and we see more blood coming down his face. Angelica moves forward and stomps him before we see a wedding planner, presumably coming over.

Planner: “No! No! Not this. This…this is unacceptable. There’s blood on that one. What are they going to wear? This was to be perfect-“

Angelica just nails the Planner as the crowd roars. We see her snap at the make-up artist as we see Lexi von Aaron’s mother now in the scene.

Angelica: “You got a problem?”

Ophelia von Aaron: “This…you’re ruining my daughter’s special day-“

Angelica lunges at her and Ophelia leans back. Angelica turns around and Starr kicks her in the ribs and grabs her and runs her out of the room and hard into a wall. The camera turns back to Ophelia.

Ophelia: “What an awful woman…awful woman! Jealous that my Lexi is getting married.”

The crowd roars a bit as we cut back to see Jake grabbing Angelica and looking around, trying to figure out what to do before running her over and then throwing her down one of the hallways. She stumbles over and falls down. Jake turns and walks down another one of the hallways. Angelica gets up and winces a bit as she turns and starts to run down after Jake.

Knots: “Now she’s trying to ruin a wedding.”

Sharper: “Jake Starr trying to just get away from Angelica, obviously underestimating her pure rage-“

Knots: “She’s like the Terminator! Still getting up! Still following!”

Angelica continues to storm after Jake as she runs after him. Starr turns one corner and Angelica stops and turns to him and Starr kicks her in the ribs and nails her with a hard right and then another and another. He grabs her and goes to run her into a storage crate, but Angelica blocks it and turns and just drop toe holds Starr into it. Starr rolls over, holding his face. Angelica walks over and then starts to grate Starr’s face into the floor. The crowd roars. She drags it back and forth before Starr pushes her away. He crawls forward and Angelica gets up and grabs after him and pulls him up. She elbows him in the back of the head and then again before pulling him in and double underhooking him. Starr then back drops her down on the floor. The crowd ohs. Angelica grimaces in pain.

Sharper: “Angelica tried for the Hot Shot.”

Knots: “Didn’t feel good. Getting slammed on the floor.”

Sharper: “Jake Starr dodging another proverbial bullet…and oh my God. He’s a crimson mask.”

Starr turns as half his face is covered now from the blood coming out of that cut. He gets up and looks at her and falls over from some of the blood loss before getting up. He runs forward. Angelica slowly gets up, wincing. Starr goes through a door. Angelica gets up and starts to follow after him. The camera follows. She goes through the door and we see a flower truck there. Angelica starts to stagger out and look around.

Angelica: “Where the hell are you Jake….get your ass out here-“

Jake then nails her from behind and throws her into the back of the flower truck. He quickly slams both doors closed before falling back to his backside. He slowly slides back before taking a few breathes of relief, blood still streaming down his face.

Jake: “Yeah…we’re done…”

Jake gets up and looks around before staggering up to his feet and going inside. He steps inside as the crowd boos.

Knots: “Thank God for the wedding! I hope all of the flowers are out.”

Sharper: “Starr just getting the hell out of dodge. Angelica extracting some damage to say the least. And Starr managing to get away. Angelica is locked in there.”

The door closes behind Starr.

Breakdown returns as we see Marie Jones walking out wearing a winter coat. She walks over to the flower van seen in the fight between Jake Starr and Angelica Jones. She opens the door as we see Angelica seated inside.

Marie: “You have your fun.”

Angelica Jones steps out of the truck.

Angelica: “Yeah…covered in blood…”

Marie: “Yeah.”

Angelica: “Good. Now he knows not to mess with us….”

The flower delivery man then walks out.

Delivery Man: “Hey! Get away from there!”

Angelica steps past him as Marie just nods and walks after Angelica. The man walks over and looks inside before closing the doors. We cut to the ring.

Alex Drake in action

“Leader of the Heart Broken” by Papa Roach starts to play in the arena. After a shortened intro, spotlights circle around the arena. Alex Drake walks out from the back and looks around and extends his arms. He spins around before starting to walk to the ring. He raises his arms in the air as the walks down as the crowd boos him slightly.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty minute time limit. On his way to the ring, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 225 pounds, he is Truly a Heartbreaker, Alex Drake!”

The boos continue as Alex Drake struts a bit to the ring and walks around the ring before hopping onto the apron. He looks at the crowd, showing himself off for a brief movement. He steps through the ropes and spins around before stopping and posing in the middle of the ring. He takes off his entrance attire as he gets ready for the challenge in front of him. We then cut to see a thin gentleman, wearing black tights, with long, wet black hair.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from Grand Rapids, Michigan, Buck Joone!”

The crowd roars politely for their home state competitor.

Sharper: “Alex Drake making his debut tonight.”

Knots: “Well, good on him. Down the road from Toronto. Lord knows we need someone of worth to come from Toronto. Shilo’s carrying things too much.”

Sharper: “And he could be gone.”

Knots: “Don’t say such things!”

Sharper: “Also there are some find competitors from Toronto. Donovan Kayl, CHBK…”

Alex Drake looks at his opponent as the bell sounds. The crowd roars as Drake comes out. He looks at Joone and kicks him in the ribs. He then wrenches his arm. He holds on it as Joone looks out. He rolls forward and nips up and Drake pulls him down by the hair. He goes for the pin.

Joone kicks out. He turns and Drake grabs him and pulls him up and wrenches the arm again. He then pushes Joone into the ropes before firing him off. Joone bounces off and Drake goes for a back drop. Joone spins through. Drake hits a back elbow. He runs into the ropes and bounces off as Joone hip tosses him down. Drake gets up stunned and Joone hip tosses him again. Drake gets up and Jonne hits a dropkick. Drake hits the mat and rolls out of the ring. He backs up to the floor, holding his jaw. Joone waits for him to get back into the ring.

Sharper: “And Buck Joone with the dropkick and Alex Drake stunned by this turn of events.”

Knots: “We only bring in the best local talent here in SCW.”

Drake looks up and walks around the ring. (1) The referee counts him out as Joone waits for him. (2) He steps to the ropes to grab at Drake, but the referee gets him back. Drake rolls into the ring and runs over to him and Joone catches him and throws him into the ropes. Drake bounces off and Joone hits a powerslam. He goes for the pin.

Drake kicks out. He turns and rolls over and gets up. He backs up to the corner and Joone goes over to climb up, but Drake rakes his eyes. Buck Joone staggers back. Drake then runs out and hits a running flying forearm. He hits the mat and then nips up and looks around. The crowd boos a bit. Joone starts to get up and Drake waits for him before lifting him up and hitting an inverted atomic drop. Joone hits the mat. Drake grabs his legs and goes to step through, but Joone blocks it.

Sharper: “Drake going for the sharpshooter, a move he’s known for. Joone fighting it.”

Knots: “Come on! Just stay down!”

Joone shoves Drake back with his feet. Drake falls to the corner. Joone starts to get up and turns and runs over to Drake and Drake catches him with a boot. Joone staggers back and Drake turns around and walks over to Joone before kicking him in the ribs. He then double underhooks him and hits a DDT. The crowd boos. Drake goes for the pin.

Joone kicks out. Drake looks up and walks over to the corner. He then motions to Joone to get up as the crowd boos. Joone starts to get up and staggers over to Drake. Drake then nails Joone with a superkick. He then stops and poses as the crowd boos. He turns and then walks over to the legs of Joone and steps through before turning him over and locking in the Slow Suffering. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “And now Drake after a superkick then locks in his version of the Sharpshooter, the Slow Suffering.”

Knots: “And Joone has made sure this match has gone longer than it should have. Drake is done toying with him and now he’s going to be in a lot of pain.”

Drake continues to lean back as Joone yells out in pain and continues to struggle before then tapping out in the middle of the ring. The crowd boos as Drake continues to hold for a moment after the sound of the bell. He then lets go and steps forward.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via submission, Alex Drake!”

Drake walks over and demands the referee raise his arm. He does and Drake looks around. The crowd boos him as his music plays. He then turns and walks over to the corner. He asks for a microphone. Phillips walks over and hands him one.

Knots: “And now he’s going to grace us with some words of greatness!”

Sharper: “Or something like that.”

Drake takes it and looks around the ring.

Drake: “Sorry to say it, but despite the fact that I’m stuck here in Detroit, a real city is going to get the opportunity to see their newest star in a couple of weeks at the End of the Year Special.”

The crowd boos. Drake looks around.

Drake: “But while this is the so called talent they put me up again, tapping like a drum boy here at Christmas time…I plan to enter the End of the Year Open Invitational and show my true greatness. And to make it even more special, you’ll all get to feast your eyes on the most beautiful girl in the world as my girlfriend, Mickie, the woman all the women wish they could be, will be joining me at ringside to see the rise of a Legend!”

The crowd boos as Drake flips the microphone down before dropping it on the mat. He backs up as his music plays. He then walks around the ring as the crowd boos.

Sharper: “Mickie? As in Mouse?”

Knots: “No! Mickie as in probably hot AF! Don’t be jelly!”

Drake then drops down to the ring. He starts to head to the back as we cut away.

“Limitless” by Adventure Club featuring Delaney Jane starts to play as the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament logo comes up. We then see a shot of Dawn Lohan and then a shot of Christy Matthews before showing the SCW Adrenaline Championship logo.

Sharper: “PUNK HAZARD already screwed up one match for Dawn Lohan. They’ll no doubt be watching with one of their own involved.”

Knots: “Christy Matthews…she’s got this. Dawn. Good luck.”

Sharper: “Dawn looks to finally win the Adrenaline Championship. Christy Matthews looks to start off this year’s tournament on the right foot. That match, it’s next!”

The scene fades to black.

Dawn Lohan (0 pts.) vs. Christy Matthews (0 pts.)

SCW Adrenaline Championship

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and is your main event of the evening. It is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament match, with a ten minute time limit and is for the SCW Television Championship! First, on her way to the ring, the challenger, from San Diego, California, she is Dawn Lohan!”

Sharper: “Dawn Lohan looking to make sure she doesn’t get skunked here. She already had to deal with coming close, but getting screwed over as Kennedy retained, not in the way she’d like though.”

Knots: “Yeah and now Dawn has to go up against PUNK HAZARD directly for the Adrenaline Title. Good luck Dawn. Come on and show what you can do.”

The lights dim in the arena as the screens all cut to black and for a few seconds and there’s nothing but the reaction of the fans heard all around the arena. After a few moments the opening “King of the World” by Porcelain and the Tramps hits the PA system as spotlights begin to flick on and off around the arena. The fans boo loudly as the camera pans through them all and back to the cheap seats in the back of the arena where we see Christy Matthews standing on the guard rail with her arms outstretched in an eerily familiar mock-crucifix pose. Her fists are taped and she looks more than ready for the task ahead. She’s wearing a red jacket the hood pulled up over her head in a style similar to the classic fairytale. The SCW Adrenaline Championship is around her waist. As she jumps down from the guard rail the screens around the arena begin to display familiar wording once more...

...E B D O N E N T E R T A I N M E N T P R E S E N T S...

...C H R I S T Y M A T T H E W S...

She begins to push her way down to ringside as security line the steps down through the crowd, holding back the fans in the way.

Phillips: “And her opponent, representing PUNK HAZARD, she is the SCW Adrenaline Champion, from Overland Park, Kansas, she is Christy Matthews!”

Christy ignores every one of them as she walks past them, focusing on the ring. She makes her way down to the barricade, leaping over and begins climbing the outside of the turnbuckles, standing on the middle rope, pulling down the hood of her jacket and striking the mock-crucifix pose once more. As the second chorus of “King of the World” hits Christy sings along with the lyrics, continuing to strike the crucifix pose before finally leaping over the top rope and spinning around in the ring, throwing her ring jacket to the outside and collapsing to a seated position in the corner of the ring as the fans cheer. She sits in the corner, looking out at the fans occasionally. The referee comes over and takes the title and holds it up. The crowd roars as the SCW Adrenaline Championship logo comes across the screen.

Sharper: “Christy Matthews looking to start off these years tournament by holding onto the title. Every match the Adrenaline Champion is in, it’s on the line.”

Knots: “And this year, she wants to go the entire run. She beat Selena Frost for it in last year’s tournament. Lost it in the finals. Tonight, she’s hoping to start her own run of dominance.”

Sharper: “And Dawn Lohan has ten minutes to try and prevent that from being the case!”

Christy pulls herself up as the referee hands off the title. The bell sounds. Dawn then steps out, getting her hands up. Christy watches her. They circle the ring a bit before lunging and grappling in the middle of the ring. Christy turns and wrenches the arm. Dawn winces and flips forward. She nips up and turns and hip tosses Christy down. The crowd cheers. Christy gets up and looks at Dawn. She then lunges and the two grapple each other again. Christy then turns and goes for the arm wrench, Dawn however blocks it and turns into a over the top wristlock before tripping Christy down with a leg sweep. She drops down and forces Christy’s hands to the mat.

Christy bridges up. Dawn jumps up and knees Christy in the ribs. She jumps up and knees her again.

Christy bridges up. Dawn jumps up and goes to knee her again. Christy remains bridging up. Dawn then jumps up and Christy gets her boot up and kicks her. Dawn rolls through and over Christy’s head. She holds on and rolls over. With their arms tangled, both get to their feet and Christy spins out and kicks Dawn in the jaw. She falls back into the ropes. Christy smirks and runs at Dawn. Dawn lifts her up and back drops her over the top rope to the floor. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Christy got the first check with the kick. Dawn then with the back drop as Christy got a bit too overconfident.”

Knots: “Please. No overconfidence! Dawn got lucky.”

Sharper: “I disagree. You saw PUNK HAZARD earlier. They’re on top of the world. They’re throwing their weight around. They beaming, all thanks to winning the World Title at Hell Hath No Fury.”

Christy rolls over and winces. Dawn turns and grabs the top rope and vaults over and lands on Christy, taking her back down. Dawn looks up as the crowd cheers. Christy turns and starts to stir. Dawn grabs her and lifts her up before hooking her up for a Russian leg sweep and slams her into the barricade. Christy falls forward and into the apron. Dawn grabs her and Christy elbows Dawn in the ribs and then again before turning and blasting her with a forearm. Dawn staggers back. Christy climbs up onto the apron. Dawn turns and walks over and goes to grab Christy. Christy pulls her foot away before stomping Dawn in the face. Dawn staggers back and Christy runs along the apron and hits a kick to the head of Dawn. The crowd ohs from the impact and Dawn falls to the mats.

Sharper: “Oh! What a kick.”

Knots: “Almost a punt. Christy may have a future with the Detroit Lions.”

Sharper: “And if you’re wondering, remember, all of these Shot of Adrenaline tournament matches, no countouts. So that’s one big part of the champion’s advantage gone too.”

Dawn rolls over and Christy waits before jumping off and hitting a guillotine leg drop off the apron and to the head of Dawn Lohan. The crowd ohs. Dawn winces. Christy rolls over and grabs Dawn and drags her up before turning and rolling her into the ring. Christy slides and crawls over and hooks the leg.

Dawn kicks out. She turns and Christy grabs Dawn and drags her up. Christy kicks her in the ribs and whips her into the corner. Christy runs after and nails her with a back elbow. Dawn winces. Christy grabs her and whips her across the ring to the opposite corner. Christy runs after and Dawn jumps up and floats over and lands behind Christy. Christy turns and Dawn jumps up and snaps her off with a frankensteiner.

Sharper: “Nice frankensteiner. Sudden movement and Christy snapped over.”

Knots: “But getting back up.”

Sharper: “Dawn has something for that!”

Christy gets up and turns and Dawn hits a back kick. She runs into the ropes and bounces off and flips over with a sunset flip.

Christy rolls out and Dawn does too. Both get up and Dawn runs over and clotheslines Christy down. Christy rolls over and gets up and Dawn hooks her up and hits a snap suplex. Dawn turns and runs into the ropes and jumps to the middle rope and backflips back into a moonsault. She hooks the leg.

Christy kicks out. She turns and Dawn locks in a reverse chinlock. Dawn looks around as the referee checks on Christy.

Sharper: “Dawn wearing down Christy, trying to figure out what to do next.”

Knots: “Yeah. A bit different from how the tournament started tonight. Tyler Tucker and Jinn just did whatever they thought of. Title on the line here. Gotta be a bit more careful.”

Sharper: “There’s also a bit of pride earlier. This, it’s one and done. You lose, you’re waiting until the semis at least, best case scenario for a rematch.”

Dawn continues to pull back and starts to pull Christy up. Dawn clubs Christy in the back of the head. She then grabs Christy and whips her into the ropes. Christy bounces off and Dawn hits a back elbow, knocking her down. Christy winces and Dawn runs into the ropes and bounces off. Christy rolls over and looks up and Dawn hits a running dropkick. Christy hits the mat. Dawn goes for the pin.

Christy gets her shoulder up. She turns and Dawn grabs her and lifts her up. She runs her face first into the top turnbuckle. Christy turns and Dawn forearms her and then again before kicking her in the ribs and stepping up to the middle rope and jumping up with a kick to the head. Christy falls over. Dawn then steps down and the crowd boos as Alexis Quinne walks out from the back, holding the SCW World Championship. The crowd boos and we then see Alexis glance back as Dante McCaffery also walks out with her. The crowd boos some more. Dawn looks at them as she turns and Christy gets up and chops Dawn. She chops her again. Dawn winces and Christy grabs Dawn and whips her into the ropes. Dawn bounces off and Christy jumps up and hits a kick to the face. Dawn hits the mat.

Sharper: “Alexis Quinne and Dante McCaffery on their way to the ring here. More involvement from PUNK HAZARD we don’t need. They say they’re not a gang-“

Knots: “They’re not!”

Sharper: “Well they why do they all need to be around when one of their own or one of their targets is in action.”

Knots: “Good tactics!”

Dawn stirs and Christy goes for the pin.

Dawn kicks out. She turns and rolls over. Christy grabs her and hoists her up and hits a back suplex. Christy rolls over and gets up as the crowd roars. We then see Tommy Valentine running out from the back and running around Alexis Quinne and Dante McCaffery and stepping between them and the ring. Tommy has his hands up as the crowd cheers some more.

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine out here!”

Knots: “Now why the hell is he out here? He has no business out here!”

Sharper: “Clearly making sure Quinne and Dante don’t try anything in this match!”

Christy steps forward and looks over at Tommy and kicks at him. Tommy turns and looks back. Alexis Quinne then turns and Dante does the same and both kick Tommy. Tommy swings and nails Dante with a shot and then nails Quinne before Dante rakes his eyes. Christy turns around and smiles and Dawn jumps up and hits an enziguri kick, knocking her down. Dawn then sees Tommy fighting off Quinne and Dante and Dawn turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and jumps over the top rope with a flip dive landing over Tommy and onto Quinne and Dante. The crowd ohs and cheers.

Sharper: “Dawn Lohan over the top! Saving Tommy who came to help her!”

Knots: “What the hell was that? That was a cheap shot. A drive-by. That’s a gang tactic!”

Sharper: “Dawn saw an opportunity to get a shot in on Alexis and Dante for good measure!”

Tommy steps forward and grabs Dawn and helps her up. Dawn nods and Dawn rolls into the ring as Christy remains down. Dawn goes over to Christy and grabs her, but Christy suddenly pops up and hits a jawbreaker. The crowd boos. Christy kicks her in the ribs and plants her with the Happily Never After. Tommy looks on and smacks the canvas. Christy turns and goes for the pin.

The crowd boos. Christy rolls over and smiles.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, and still SCW Adrenaline Champion, Christy Matthews!”

Tommy slides into the ring. Christy rolls out of the ring as Quinne smiles as she gets up. Dante starts to move to the ring. Christy is handed her Adrenaline Championship and she takes it and walks back and joins Quinne and Dante. Tommy starts to help Dawn up as they just turn and look at Quinne and Dante. Quinne just smiles and waves as Christy turns and proudly puts the title over her shoulder. She then backs up as the crowd boos.

Sharper: “PUNK HAZARD getting involved again and helping Christy Matthews retain thanks to her playing possum it seems.”

Knots: “Dawn got overzealous and it cost her. PUNK HAZARD did nothing!”

Sharper: “Oh please!”

Knots: “Oh well. Now she’ll have to wait a few months before revenge!”

Quinne, Dante and Christy continue to head to the back as we cut away.

We then see a shot of Ace Marshall backstage as Shawn Winters straightens up his tie. We see a god awful fedora in his hand as Ace Marshall takes a deep breath.

Sharper: “Well it’s here.”

Knots: “Oh God!”

Sharper: “Ace Marshall and Cassidy Carter will be wed. That…will be next!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

In the middle of the commercials, we then suddenly see something of interest to wrestling fans. We open up inside of a one-room cabin, with the sun shining in. There is no movement at all. Just a shot of the cabin, with a bed under the window, a desk in the far side and an empty chair. The scene plays out for a moment before it cuts out. Regular commercials return afterwards.

COMMERCIALS

We open up with a wide shot of the arena which now has been transformed into a wedding scene, flowers covering the stage and lining the rampway to the ring where an arch is scene. We have a Catholic Priest standing in the middle of the ring as we see Ace Marshall standing in the ring, looking around as Shawn Winters stands next to him in jeans, a t-shirt and a sports coat. With them off to the side are Ace’s “groomsmen,” Matt and the dishevelled gentlemen, who seems just happy to have a suit as he continues to play with the pockets. We notice at the stage a barber shop quartet. We also notice that there is virtually no white, only a navy blue, presumably one of the random choices Cassidy made a couple of weeks ago.

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown and we’re about to witness one of the most unique weddings I think we’ve ever seen. Ace Marshall and Cassidy Carter. Enjoy.”

The barber shop quartet “sing” some wedding type music to set ambience as the camera pans throughout the crowd before we cut to get a closer look at Ace to notice he is wearing an unnecessarily over the top tuxedo, complete with lengthy tails and a rather gawdy orange fedora, again presumably more random choices Cassidy made by only picking the second option to everything. We then see Sophie James walking down to the ring, not wearing a dress at all, and instead wearing the exact same thing she had when she arrived. Kimberly Williams follows wearing an unnecessarily poofy teal dress, completely dressed to the nines as she heads to the ring. The camera cuts back expecting a third, but no one else comes down. The two women come down to the ring and go up into it before standing on the bride’s side, only adding to the rather uniqueness to the wedding. As the quartet slows down the priest begins to speak.

Priest: “Ladies and gentlemen here today, we are here to celebrate the wedding of holy matrimony between Ace ‘Danger’ Marshall…”

The priest looks at Ace with a confused look as Shawn Winters shakes his head.

Ace: “What? I always wanted it as my middle name.”

Priest: “Alright…and Cassidy ‘Not Janelle’ Carter.”

Priest looks at Ace as Ace shrugs.

Priest: “Please stand for the arrival of the bride.”

One member of the quartet blows into a harmonica before they start to hum the wedding march. The crowd stands and cheers as a few moments pass. The cameras cut to the entrance way to see Rachel Foxx walking out from the back, dressed entirely in black, rolling her eyes. Ace just smirks as Rachel Foxx just starts to walk down to the ring, passing the quartet and starting to head to the ring. The crowd looks a bit confused. Shawn says something to Ace. Ace responds as Rachel Foxx walks over to the ring and walks up the steel steps and forward, where the ropes no longer are. She steps forward.

Ace: “Where is she?”

Rachel: “She’ll be coming….eventually…”

Priest: “Miss…are you not supposed to be presenting the bride?”

Rachel: “Yeah, yeah…Wait…”

Rachel reaches into her clutch and pulls out her cell phone. She does a few things on it before listening for a moment. Ace looks around.

Rachel: “Yeah…you’re on.”

Rachel turns and places the phone on speakerphone and leans it to the microphone.

Priest: “Well this is highly irregular. You need to be physically present for these things.”

Rachel: “I told her that. I mean I even brought my finest wedding attire.”

Priest: “You’re wearing black.”

Rachel: “Precisely.”

The priest sighs.

Cassidy: “Okay, okay…I’m here…just…uh…tied up. Yeah.”

Ace: “Need help?”

Ace smirks.

Priest: “Excuse me?”

Ace: “Oh please. We had a quickie earlier. Nothing I haven’t seen before.”

Priest: “Oh dear.”

Cassidy: “No…no…I’m just on my way. Start things without me. I’ll be down in a bit. The thong’s riding up. Yeah…that’ll work.”

Ace shrugs.

Priest: “Oh….well….who presents the bride, who is here apparently in voice, but not in person.”

Rachel: “Me, Rachel Foxx. The closest thing she has to a mother in this world.”

Priest: “How sweet.”

Rachel: “Sure…you can look at it that way.”

Rachel smiles.

Ace: “Yeah, you don’t want the history. Trying to get a threesome, but she’s not in for it.”

Sophie: “I’m in. Let’s go!”

Ace laughs as the priest continues to get rather concerned.

Dishevelled man: “When do I get paid? I have a hot meal to bring home to Sandra.”

Ace: “You told me she died!”

Priest: “Please. Allow us to stay on schedule here. At least not to turn this into any more of a unique event.”

Priest clears his throat.

Priest: “We are gathered here today to celebrate the wedding between Cassidy Carter and Ace Marshall. They are here to join together in holy matrimony under the eyes of the lord-“

The quartet suddenly starts to hum the wedding march again. The priest stops and looks around.

Priest: “What is the meaning of this?”

Just then, we see Lexi von Aaron, in a lavish wedding dress, walking down from the back, led by her mother, Ophelia von Aaron. She smiles as she looks around the arena, entirely ignoring the group of people in the ring. Ophelia von Aaron says something to Lexi, but Lexi ignores her as they reach the ring. Ophelia leads Lexi up the steel steps and into the ring. She then turns and smiles.

Ophelia: “I am here to present the bride.”

Sophie: “Yo…that’s not Cass.”

Lexi: “Of course I’m not. I’m not some trollop. I am here to have the happiest day of my life.”

Lexi then turns to Ace.

Lexi: “Ace! Get out of here! Where’s AJ?! Don’t tell me he’s late to his own wedding!”

Rachel: “This isn’t your wedding.”

Ophelia: “Please. This is your AJ…he’s nothing special.”

Ace: “Hey! I’ll let you know I was voted most likely to be drunk on television in high school! And I’m a former World Champion!”

Shawn actually acts as the voice of reason.

Priest: “What is going on over here?”

Cassidy: “Yeah, what is going on? Sounds like I’m missing something.”

Rachel: “Your wedding Cass.”

Cassidy: “Oh yeah…uh…just a minute….Can you get me to the Marriot with a twenty….Well I can’t carry more in these jeans.”

Ace: “Wait…Cass…”

Kimberly: “I love weddings. So sweet.”

Ace grabs the phone and takes it off speaker and speaks to her himself away from the microphones.

Priest: “I demand to know what is going on here! I was brought into marry a Miss Carter and a Mr. Marshall and all I have seen are a number of you who treat this like a joke and now some other lady who is actually seemingly like they want to be in a wedding.”

Lexi: “Well I want to know where my AJ is! And where are my bridesmaids…Lenore…Chanel….”

Chanel and Lenore then start to come down from the back, holding flowers and wearing matching purple dresses as they head to the ring. We then see Jacky Knight running out from the back and running up to them and hooking their arms. They smile as they all head down to the ring. We then see Jacky hold their hands as they enter the ring. Lexi just smiles. Jacky then walks up and the priest looks at him as Lenore and Chanel stand over on the same side as Sophie and Kimberly, who just glare at Lenore and Chanel.

Priest: “And who are they?”

Lexi: “That’s Lenore and Chanel. My bridesmaids. And Jacky…he’s here for AJ because AJ has no friends that actually care for him, except for me, his best friend in the world. So Jacky is here to guide him tonight.”

Jacky: “Damn right. And to drink, so…”

Jacky turns to Ophelia.

Jacky: “Well hello there….”

Ophelia smiles and cozies up to Jacky a bit. Ace then turns to Shawn and says something. Ace turns to Sophie and Kimberly.

Ace: “She’s leaving the arena.”

Foxx seems a bit surprised. Sophie and Kimberly look stunned too. The crowd boos a bit as Ace turns to Shawn. They do something.

Ace: “Mind staying here. Hoping to catch her before she leaves the building.”

Sophie just salutes sloppily. Rachel joins Ace as they both head to the back.

Lexi: “Yeah! Get out of here! Bring me my AJ!”

Sophie: “He’s probably out with Cass. Maybe he’s smuggling him out of here to get away from you.”

Lexi: “Hey! You shut your mouth! I am AJ’s! AJ is mine!”

Priest: “Wait…is this not-“

Jacky: “Relax. It’s a bit of a shotgun wedding. You know-“

Priest: “Wait, so….I normally do marital counselling before-“

Jacky: “Oh yeah…it’s….”

Lexi: “Well not yet…but soon.”

Lexi smiles, looking off in bliss. Ace and Rachel can be seen walking to the back. Lenore and Chanel start to get into the face of Sophie and Kimberly as Shawn Winters walks over and actually tries to keep them apart. We then cut to the back to see a shot outside of the building where a taxi is pulled up. Cassidy is standing outside of it wearing a coat. Christina Matsui is also there, talking to her.

Christina: “Cassidy…this isn’t a joke. You wanted this. He allowed you to do this. You can’t just run off. It’s not a joke.”

Cassidy: “Yeah…I get it. It was a mistake. Just…”

Christina: “Look, I get it. Cold feet happens. But-“

Cassidy: “It’s not that…that’s…that’s not me. The decisions, the pomp, the circumstance. Not me.”

Christina: “Cass-“

Cassidy: “Look, just tell Ace I’m sorry and he can foot the bill or something. I’m just out. He’ll get it eventually.”

Christina: “Cassidy!”

Cassidy gets into the taxi and closes the door. Ace Marshall jogs out of the building as Rachel Foxx takes her time.

Ace: “Cass!”

The cab starts to drive off as Ace just stops and watches the cab drive off. Christina walks forward to Ace.

Christina: “Sorry Ace…”

Ace: “No…I’m sorry…”

Christina: “Wait…why?”

Ace: “I get it…but also, did you check her coat?”

Christina: “No….Wait-“

Ace: “She probably has the dress on and you’re not getting that deposit back.”

Christina: “Well she said you’re footing the bill.”

Ace: “Yeah…not surprised there. This…this is new.”

Christina looks at Ace. Just then, there’s a buzz at Rachel’s phone. Ace looks down at it and then smirks.

Ace: “Yeah…still worth it.”

Christina looks a bit confused. Ace then walks back rather calm. Rachel looks at him. Ace then hands her the phone. Rachel even smiles a bit as Christina looks a bit confused. We then cut back to the ring.

Lexi: “Where is AJ!”

Just then, the lights go out. A few moments pass before “Daughters of Darkness” by Halestorm starts to play. A few moments pass before we see Sloan Sawyer walk out from the back, a microphone in their hand.

Sloan: “Lexi…Lexi….sorry for taking so long, but we heard about your event and well, we wanted to get you the perf gift for someone as totes honourable as you. See…we’ve decided now that the B&B Experience are holding the SCW Tag Team Championship…well…Di and I don’t want to touch it with Bree’s stench on them. Too classy for us. We like our stuff declassified. Oh…what am I saying…we’d love to be Tag Champs, but we do feel with the end of the year, we need to shed some of our problems. And while one we can’t really do much about until we’re given the title shot we deserved…we do own Honour Code a special gift, so Lexi…Mazal tov!”

Diana then comes out, dragging a storage crate with a crudely wrapped person on it. She starts to push it forward and takes a moment before Sloan and Diana look at him and turn before shrugging and just shoving it down the rampway.

Sharper: “Wait a minute…is that AJ? How the hell?”

It slowly picks up steam. Diana leans to the microphone.

Diana: “There he goes!”

Lexi shrieks a bit as Lenore and Chanel step down the steps and manage to just get to the bottom as he hits the mats and stop it. We then see them unwrap the person, revealing it to be AJ Helms, with a shirt.

Sloan: “Oh yeah…we figured we’d help you get started for the evening!”

Sloan winks as Sloan and Diana return to the back. The crowd boos as Lexi just smiles. Jacky heads down to the floor as Kimberly and Sophie just remain in the background along with Shawn Winters.

Lexi: “Yes! AJ! AJ!...it’s our time. Get him up here. Priest…”

Lexi looks around.

Lexi: “Where the hell’s the priest!”

Ophelia shakes her head as we see AJ Helms lifted up, and still somewhat tied, rolled into the ring. Lenore and Chanel don’t even both standing him up. They climb up the stairs, again with the help of Jacky Knight as Lexi looks around. Shawn remains in the ring. Just then, we see Lexi turn to Shawn.

Lexi: “Shawn…you were once called God…could you?”

Lexi looks at Shawn.

Lexi: “We’ve known each other for so long.”

A tear starts to form in the eye of Shawn. Shawn relents.

Shawn: “Oh, I’m a sucker for true love. Sorry AJ. But I trust her to kick my ass more than you right now. So…uh…we’re gathered here today…yadda, yadda, yadda.”

Shawn pauses. Lexi meanwhile can be seen looking at AJ, but we also see her scan lower and seemingly trying to size something up with her hands before looking a bit confused and then refocusing herself as Shawn begins to manage the situation.

Shawn: “Uh…Ophelia…”

Ophelia looks up at Shawn. We cut to Sophie and Kimberly who now are just sitting cross-legged in the ring, both drinking from flasks that they both seemed to have on them and just watching the show.

Shawn: “Mind getting on your knees and putting the microphone to AJ’s mouth.”

Ophelia gets up, thinking nothing of it and gets down on her knees, although Winters moves over a bit.

Winters: “Hey Ethan! I got your mom on her knees in front of me!”

Winters laughs and the crowd roars. Ophelia elbows Winters in the ribs. He steps back as the microphone is now just on the ground next to his mouth.

Winters: “Alright…sorry….sorry…Had to take the moment, you know. Now…uh…Lexi, do you tak-“

Lexi: “Yes! Yes! Oh GOD! YES!”

Winters: “Relax. Save something for the honeymoon. Now…AJ….Buddy…you’ve not got many options here.”

AJ: “Get me untied. Get me out of here. I want nothing to do with you you crazy bastard.”

Lenore then steps over as does Jacky.

Jacky: “Now, AJ as your only friend-“

AJ: “You’re not my friend you old son of a bitch!”

Jacky: “Why you-“

Ophelia and Lenore then have to hold Jacky back as he starts to take off his coat. The crowd cheers for AJ before we then see Shaun Cruze walking out from the back, wincing a bit, holding his head as there’s a gash over his eye. He starts to head to the ring as Scarlett comes out with him. The crowd roars.

Winters: “Ah, Lexi. Let’s get this faster. Got the rings?”

Lexi: “Oh…oh God…”

Shawn: “Here…just use Ace’s. Doesn’t seem like he’ll need it.”

Shawn reaches into his pocket to get the ring for the Ace/Cassidy wedding when Shaun Cruze gets to the ring. Lenore drops down and Chanel goes to get down, but Sophie and Kimberly trip her for their own enjoyment. She rolls over, holding her face as Lenore goes over and Shaun grabs her and throws her down, clearly showing the limits of fighting in a bridesmaids dress and heels. Shaun steps over and Lexi shrieks again. Scarlett however runs forward and tackles Lexi down. The crowd erupts in cheers. Lexi stumbles up and Scarlett grabs her and turns and goes to throw her into the arch before we see Regan Street running down from the back. This causes the ring to scatter as Sophie and Kimberly exit. Chanel who is about to go after Sophie or Kimberly sees Regan and hops down. Shaun goes over to AJ to check on him as Scarlett lifts Lexi up.

Knots: “This was Lexi’s moment! She was so close!”

Sharper: “Scarlett with a huge takedown! And look out! Shaun Cruze here, but so is Regan!”

Knots: “Oh no! Not another angry woman!”

Scarlett then throws Lexi into the arch and it comes crashing down. Scarlett is then held back by Regan Street of all people. She steps forward as Jacky protects Ophelia. Regan then runs over as Lexi starts to get up and Regan grabs her by the head and plants her with the Catnap! The crowd ohs. Shaun gets AJ free and AJ starts to get up and looks at Lexi before Regan turns and suddenly kicks Shaun Cruze in the ribs and drops him with the CATastrophe! The crowd ohs and Shaun rolls over, holding his face. Shawn backs up, having now gone over to Chanel Hunter to seemingly watch her as Jacky leads Ophelia back. Regan turns and looks at Shaun.

Regan: “I told you…you take care of this and protect him or I’ll handle it!”

Regan then turns and heads off. She just storms to the back as AJ turns and checks on Shaun. Scarlett does too. Regan just continues to head to the back, ignoring the scene entirely. Lenore heads over to Lexi as Lexi stirs a bit. Shawn even checks on Lexi a bit too.

Sharper: “Pandemonium to end this scene here in Detroit!”

Knots: “Lexi is down! Regan then took out Shaun Cruze too!”

Sharper: “What a way to end 2016!”

Lexi then turns and starts to tear up, crying. Lenore starts to comfort her as Ophelia does the same.

Lexi: “She ruined it….she ruined it…AJ! How is AJ?”

Shawn: “He’s fine. He’s fine…”

AJ meanwhile is completely ignoring Lexi as he helps Shaun up and Shaun, Scarlett and AJ start to head to the back. Scarlett turns to head back to Lexi, but AJ stops her. Shaun turns and stops her too. Shaun winces as they start to head to the back. Lexi continues to cry in the middle of the ring.

Knots: “Everyone is talking about how 2016 was the worst year ever…this is the worst. Lexi Helms was denied!”

Sharper: “Oh give me a break…”

The scene fades to black…
