“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 opening strums of “Rescue Me” by Buckcherry plays as the Breakdown logo flies past the screen before we see a shot of Jake Starr holding the SCW Championship over his head. This is followed by a shot of Thirteen locking in the Last Breath on Christian Savior. We see a shot of Katie Steward posing on the rampway before freezing and flying past the screen. This is followed by a shot of Rachel Foxx nailing Wild Bill with the SCW Underground Championship before smiling as the shot freezes and flies at the screen.

“You can't erase this deep inside of me
I know I'm not a sight to see
But baby, I'm alive.”

We see Kennedy Street posing before the shot freezes and flies at the screen. A shot of Kelcey Wallace holding up the SCW World Championship is shown before freezing and flying at the screen. A quick shot of Jake Starr hitting the Shooting Five Star Frog Splash, before switching to a shot of Aiken, Rachel Foxx and Rachel Frost standing together, followed by a shot of Thorn hitting the Griever’s Bane on someone is shown, followed by a shot of CHBK standing in a suit in the ring, all freezing in mid-motion and flying at the screen.

“I cherish the love and
I cherish the life that's inside of me
And I know I'm not a sight to see
But baby, I'm alive.”

Shots of Lucas Knight and Syren looking at each other, standing across the ring from each other, followed by showing Collin Cole nailing David Helms with the Cole Killer, and followed by a shot of Shaun Cruze hitting the C5 on Greg Cherry are all shown before freezing and flying past the screen. A shot of Devon Kayl at someone is shown before flying past the screen.

“Won't you come and rescue me?
Separate myself from me
Maybe I'm too blind to see
Save my life, rescue me.”

Several shots of various SCW competitors, new and old, including Gable Winchester, Havoc Warrior Exodus, Thorn & David Helms, Soopaman Luva, Syren, Regan Street, Ben McCaron, Harmony Fisher, William Mason, Matt Auclair, Merrick Wiseman and others all fly past the screen before ending with the SCW Breakdown logo flying into the screen.


The scene then switches to the inside of the PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina where spotlights circle the arena before pyro shoots out from the entrance way on both sides and around the big screen before coming to a stop. The crowd erupts in cheers as the cameras pan the audience, showing the crowd, cheering and waving their signs, hoping to get onto camera. Spotlights circle the arena before we sweep down to ringside to see Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at ringside. Winters has a small bandage on his forehead.

 

Sharper: “Welcome everyone to Raleigh, North Carolina for Breakdown. Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters here at ringside. Shawn, still showing off some of the scars from last week. We’ll have more on that to come. But tonight, a huge tag team match will be capping off the night.”

 

Winters: “Dark Fantasy is back together. I know how good they were. They’re back in a standard tag match against the World Tag Team Champions, the Howells. Howells ran their mouths a few weeks ago. They’ve taken shots at each other since. Tonight, they meet up.”

 

Sharper: “Katie Steward and Marcus V. Lopez will be watching that one closely. We also are going to see some huge matches, and a bit of a preview of the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. A series of matches tonight of people from different blocks. We’ll go into more detail later, but we’re gonna give you a preview of what to expect come Supreme Saturday in eleven days.”

 

WHEN DID YOU LAST MAKE A CHOICE THAT YOU'VE COME TO REGRET?

The words flash up on the screen as the arena lights cut out completely, plunging the room into complete darkness. The sounds of a thunder storm echo around the arena as the crowd view the large screens either side of the entrance way.

WHAT IF THAT CHOICE ISOLATED YOU FROM EVERYTHING THAT YOU HELD DEAR?

The room is electric as the sound of thunder continues to roll through the arena, the crowd beginning to question if this really means what they think it means.

WOULD YOU HAVE THE GUTS TO ADMIT TO THAT MISTAKE OR WOULD YOU CONTINUE TO LIVE IN DENIAL AND MISERY???

As the thunderstorm rolls to a crescendo, a final crack of lighting lights up the big screens and as it hits, the entire stage lights up with a brilliant white light and the opening riff from an SCW remix of "All I Want" by A Day To Remember hits the pa system. Realisation hits as the crowd focus on the stage area, finally noticing David Helms standing on the centre of the stage, only his silhouette visible thanks to the blinding light shining from behind him. As the intro begins to draw to a close, Helms throws his hands into the air, pressing them together in the Self High Five, holding the pose for a moment.

“ALL I WANT IS A PLACE TO CALL MY OWN
TO MEND THE HEARTS OF EVERYONE WHO FEELS ALONE
WOAH; YOU KNOW TO KEEP YOUR HOPES UP HIGH
BUT YOU HEAD DOWN LOW!”

The intro gives way straight to the chorus of the song - thanks to the SCW-specific remix - and the lyrics of said chorus flash up on the screen as Helms jumps in the air, breaking his hands apart. As he does so, fireworks erupt on either side of the stage before the arena’s lights come back on. David Helms then takes a few steps and looks around the arena.

 

Sharper: “His old stomping grounds and David Helms coming out alone. No Silas Mason. Silas is not here tonight.”

 

Winters: “He may be away for a bit. After what Jake Starr did to him last week on Breakdown.”

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, last week, Silas Mason was in the corner of David Helms and Helms was dragged away by Silas Mason, refusing to allow him to have any response to Silk who returned by coming from under the ring and attacking both him and Selena Frost.”

 

Winters: “Well Silas can’t stop him this week…”

 

Helms walks down to the ring and looks around. Some fans go for high-fives and Helms returns them before jogging to the ring and walking up the steel steps. Helms then enters into the ring. He looks around and nods as he enjoys the generally more favourable reaction as he turns and walks to the corner and grabs a microphone. Helms takes it and walks back to the middle of the ring. His music fades out and Helms looks around and the crowd now makes a bit more of a mixed reaction.

 

Helms: “I don’t know what to say…after two of the hardest shows I’ve had to get through in recent memory….being forced to return to the back, risking everything against New Eden…and then having to turn my back on Selena Frost and Silk….I’m not exactly happy. But with Silas Mason not here…sitting at home instead, recuperating from what Jake Starr and company did to him, I have the opportunity to come out here and actually try to explain some of what you’ve been seeing unfold in front of you all on Breakdown, at SCW events and so forth.”

 

The crowd boos a bit.

 

Helms: “And to cap it all off, I get to do it in a place I called home for years.”

 

The crowd cheers. Helms just nods.

 

Helms: “See, a lot of people figured I’ve just thrown my career down the toilet. I have just under a year left before I call it a night, ride off into the sunset and focus on being a loving husband and father. And at Under Attack, I saw my fiancé come THIS close to reaching her dream. I saw her come THIS close to finally getting that monkey off her back and beating one of the best wrestlers in SCW history to regain the World Title.”

 

The crowd cheers a bit.

 

Helms: “And I saw how she was. I saw that she was desperate. I saw that she was angry. She was unhappy-“

 

Just then, “Kick in the Teeth” by Papa Roach starts to play. The crowd boos as David Helms turns and Harmony Fisher walks out from the back. She just looks down at the ring and makes her way down to the ring, ignoring the booing fans. Helms just looks at her and can be heard mouthing “What do you want?” Harmony just smirks as she runs up the steel steps and enters into the ring. She walks right past him. Helms watches her as she then goes to the corner and is handed a microphone. She turns back and looks at Helms as Helms turns to her.

 

Helms: “Harmony…now is not-“

 

Harmony: “Oh but it is. It’s funny. I’m from this area too and unlike you, I just get booed to high heaven. Why? Because I made the right choice. I joined with Silas on the ground floor. And before you spin this lovely story about how this was a choice for you, but David…it’s funny…You used to be my mentor and now, you’re realizing that I was smarter than you all along.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Harmony: “I even remember you being a bit concerned about me when I turned to Silas. Tommy too. And yet you realized the one thing every smart person should. Silas Mason makes careers. He’ll end them…and he makes champions. You don’t. And you already have screwed Regan’s career up and yeah, she had her moment at Total War, but that moment wasn’t for a World Title. It wasn’t for any title.”

 

Helms: “It was for this company.”

 

Harmony scoffs and looks at Helms.

 

Harmony: “And yet when you should’ve done the same by saving Silas Mason last week, you didn’t lift a finger!”

 

Helms: “I’m not part of Silas’ World-“

 

Harmony: “That’s clear, but remember, if Silas Mason doesn’t think you’re pulling your weight on any agreement with him…Regan Street’s career is gone. I mean, it’s clear that you and her don’t think she can do it herself. You both know that she’s not quite good enough.”

 

Just then, we see Kelcey Wallace out from the back with Shawn Mason  She has a microphone in her  hand. The crowd roars.

 

Kelcey: “Harmony…David….Please think this through.”

 

Harmony turns to Kelcey.

 

Harmony: “Oh now you’re going to come out and talk about what he did to you. You did it to yourself Kelcey. Just like everything and frankly you deserve it all.”

 

Helms: “Harm-“

 

Kelcey: “No David, it’s fine. If she’s drinking the Kool-Aid that much, that’s her problem. She can realize that tonight, with Silas not around, you, Angelica, Brittany, even Sienna can all make a choice. You all can realize that the thumb he’s got you under is not going to help you. Same for you David. It’s not going to help you or Regan. He’s going to use you and when he’s done or you don’t play along…just look at my career for the last five months. That’s what really he has and I don’t care what contract you have with him. Harmony…we can get you out of that. We can end Silas’ World tonight. We can start it-“

 

Harmony: “I don’t want it to end. See, Kelcey…I’m a champion and I’ve become one again BECAUSE of him. Because of him bringing Brittany in-“

 

Harmony turns to David.

 

Harmony: “And frankly, David…listen to your former student…he’s the only chance Regan has to be champion too.”

 

Helms: “You know that’s not true…She’s one of the best-“

 

Harmony: “Then clearly you’re here because you know Silas Mason is only person who gets it done.”

 

Just then, Regan Street storms out from the back. Harmony Fisher turns as the crowd roars. She storms over to Kelcey and Shawn Mason and they try to hold her back. Kelcey can be seen trying to talk to her Regan, but Regan tries to get past before she manages to shove Shawn over and runs to the ring and slides in. Kelcey and Shawn run after and Harmony drops down and rolls to the floor. She backs away as Kelcey and Shawn get up. Regan lunges towards the ropes to get to Harmony, but Helms stops her and holds her back. The crowd roars as Harmony backs away and goes to the entrance way. We then see Angelica Jones, Brittany Lohan and Sienna Swann step out from the back. B.Real is with Swann as the four of them look down at the ring. Harmony heads up the rampway to join them. Helms looks up at them as Kelcey can be heard clearly saying to Helms.

 

Kelcey: “Is this really what you both want?”

 

Helms just looks down as Brittany walks over to Harmony. She then says something to her as the crowd boos them.

 

Sharper: “Silas’ World, minus Silas Mason, up on the stage, looking down, clearly coming out in case there was an attack. Regan stopped by Helms.”

 

Winters: “And Kelcey Wallace is clearly trying to change their minds, but it doesn’t matter. Silas Mason is guiding the Hellcat and Helms now!”

 

Sharper: “Not the revelation Helms wanted…but I’m shocked…all of Silas’ World is backing him up.”

 

Winters: “Why are you shocked? He’s giving them a chance at greatness!”

 

Regan snaps at everyone to get off of her as Harmony and Lohan smirk at the ring. Angelica Jones just shakes her head. Sienna stands stoically, while B.Real dares them to come at them before we cut away.

COMMERCIAL:

We return to Breakdown to see David Helms with Regan Street backstage walking away from the tunnel and the way to get to the main arena. Kelcey Wallace takes a few steps with Shawn Mason and looks at them.

 

Kelcey: “David?”

 

Helms stops and turns. Regan just turns back to Kelcey. Helms then stops her.

 

Helms: “I know what I’m doing.”

 

Kelcey: “I thought the same thing.”

 

Shawn: “Are you sure, David?”

 

Helms: “Yeah. Regan is what matters more than anything.”

 

Helms turns to Regan as Regan turns and storms off, clearly still fired up from behind as David Helms walks off with him. Kelcey Wallace sighs as Shawn turns to her.

 

Shawn: “Come on. He’s got to make his own decisions. Let’s go help Chris get ready.”

 

Kelcey nods and the two walk off.

Xander Valentine vs. Collin Cole

 

The opening riff to "Smooth Sailing" hits the PA system and the fans begin to cheer a bit. The song eventually kicks into gear. Collin Cole soon emerge from the curtains. Collin is sporting a black and white long sleeve jacket with blue trim and a white design of two pairs of wings on the back and the hood of his jacket up. Collin looks behind him for a moment before lowering his hood and shaking his head to make sure his hair doesn't blind his sight. Collin starts walking down the ramp shortly after.

It's all in motion
No stoppin' now
I've got nothin' to lose
And only one way up

I'm burning bridges
I destroy the mirage
Oh, visions of collisions
Fuckin 'bon voyage

Collin walks down the ramp as he flexes his fingers. The crowd continues to give Collin a positive reaction as Collin runs his hands through his hair. Once Collin gets to ringside, Collin starts unzipping his jacket and soon slides into the ring.

It's all smooth sailing
From here on out

Collin looks around and then then jumps to his feet. Collin punches his hand a few times while he walks into the corner and waits for his opponent with a focused expression on his face and with his right leg on the bottom rope. The music fades and Collin remains in the corner.

 

Sharper: “Collin Cole back on the winning side of things. He’s got a spot in that Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. But now, tonight, he has a hell of a challenge.”

 

Winters: “He’s got the man that I had my last match against. Xander Valentine and trust me, Collin is in for a long night. I’m still feeling that match.”

 

The lights flicker flow by bright flashes of light. Footage is shown on the gigantic screen, flashes of Xander Valentine, throwing punches against shadows and black and white clips of his dominance in the ring. As the video plays, the chords of Metallica's “Fade to Black” begins to crackle upon the sound system. Not soon, the interlude is cut short as the lyrics begins to ring out:

“Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free”

A looming shadow of a man emerges at the curtains with his back turned towards the crowd. Small pyro display, bright and white, flare up behind him. He kicks his leg around to pivot on the other foot, stepping through the display. Xander steps forward without seeming to be affected by the glorified sparklers. He steps to the front of the stage where he scans the landscape. There's nothing but seriousness painted across his weathered face as the crowd grants him a enormous response.

Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this Can t be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he 's gone

Xander has already began his march down down the entrance ramp. His heavy leather boots stomp against the metal ramp. Arms dart out from the crowd but Xander bats down any that crosses his path. He doesn't look at the fans, only at the ring. He steps up to the ring as the guitar riffs begins to consume the center stage of his theme. He pauses. Then in a single bound he leaps up onto the apron, before stepping into the ring. As the track continues, Xander climbs up onto one of the turnbuckle and throws his fist up into the crowd, getting another loud response. Afterward, he steps off, turning to face the pending obstacle in front of him.

 

Sharper: “Interestingly enough, Xander Valentine has been quite quiet. Nothing about Shilo Valiant in any details and not really much to speak of that desire to help. No criticism of this match against Collin Cole who certainly should not be overlooked.”

 

Winters: “Yeah and maybe Xander’s just going to send a message tonight. I don’t know. But when he’s quiet, that’s bad for everyone.”

 

The bell sounds and Xander steps forward as Cole walks along the ropes and watches him. Xander tells Cole to come at him and Cole watches him for a moment before starting to then pull back. Xander yells at him to come at him. Cole just watches Xander and remains in the corner. Xander then moves forward and goes to grab at Cole, but Cole then kicks him in the ribs. He then nails him with a hard right. Xander winces. Cole nails him again before kicking him in the ribs. Xander then goes for a huge clothesline, but Cole ducks and spins around. Xander turns around in the corner. Cole kicks him in the ribs and nails him with another hard right and then another and another. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Collin Cole teeing off. He lured Xander in and has him already frustrated.”

 

Winters: “I can’t believe this. Xander rarely  gets this way and Cole suckered him in.”

 

Sharper: “Obviously Xander wanted Cole to come at him. I think you were right. He wanted to send a message and Cole quickly made sure Xander had to be the aggressor.”

 

The referee counts.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

4!

 

Xander then shoves Cole back. Cole rolls through and gets up. Xander runs out and goes for a clothesline, but Cole drops down and hits a drop toe hold. Xander hits the mat and Cole gets up and hits an elbow to the back of Xander’s head. Xander rolls over. He starts to get up and Cole runs towards him and jumps up and hits a dropkick. Xander falls down and rolls to the floor. Xander then turns and kicks the barricade. Cole then gets up and runs at the ropes as Xander steps forward. Cole goes to dive through with a tope, but Xander catches Cole by the throat. Cole tries to get free while hanging over the middle rope. Xander then turns and choke throws Cole hard into the barricade. The crowd ohs and Cole rolls over in pain. (1)

 

Sharper: “Cole caught and then thrown down in a way that no one wants.”

 

Winters: “Back first into the barricade. Then the thud to the mats. Collin, thanks for  coming out.”

 

Sharper: “Cole back has to be destroyed. And Xander just lording over him.”

 

Xander just looks down at Cole as Cole winces and holds his back. (2) Xander bends down and grabs him by the hair and drags him up. (3)

 

REPLAY:

 

We see Cole running towards the ropes, looking to dive through the ropes onto Xander, but Xander catches him. We then see Cole struggle before Xander turns and choke throws him into the barricade. The crowd ohing can be heard as the replay ends.

Xander then lifts Cole up and drops him chest first onto the barricade. (4) Cole rolls over. Xander then grabs him and turns before rolling him into the ring. (5)

 

Xander grabs the ropes and pulls himself onto the apron. He enters the ring. Cole starts to get up and Xander runs over and drills him with a knee to the ribs. He then gutwrenches him up and turns before running him chest first into the top turnbuckle. The crowd ohs as Cole is hung up and struggles to breathe.

 

Sharper: “And Xander now just drives Cole into the turnbuckles.”

 

Winters: “I hope Shilo’s watching. This is why Xander’s one of the best. He does this to anyone. Did it to me, to CHBK, to Zero, to Savior. Name them and he’s left them in bad shape. Cole’s finding that out now.”

 

Sharper: “Well, Xander hasn’t agreed to face Shilo yet and I think that’s a bigger story than Xander’s capabilities.”

 

Xander takes a moment before sizing him up and elbowing him in the back. He then backs up and elbows him again. Cole drops down and Xander grabs him by the head and pulls him out. He then hooks him up and hits a vertical suplex. He rolls over into a pin.

 

1!

Cole kicks out. He turns and Xander grabs him and drags him up. He then pushes him into the corner and knees him. He then turns and whips him across the ring and into the opposite corner. Xander then turns and runs after him and goes for a splash, but Cole moves out of the way. Xander hits hard chest first and turns back as Cole hits a dropkick. The crowd cheers. Xander falls back. He then pushes himself forward and Cole hits another dropkick. Xander steps forward and Cole grabs him and goes to whip him across the ring. Xander however spins through and sends Cole in. Cole however gets to the corner and climbs up to the top rope. Xander steps forward not realizing this and Cole hits a moonsault, taking him down.

 

Sharper: “Moonsault takes down Xander. He didn’t see it coming. He got a bit cocky.”

 

Winters: “Why blame him there? The man’s a hall of famer!”

 

Sharper: “So? He’s facing a hungry young man in there that wants to get a big win. He should be focused as Cole is!”

 

Cole rolls over and starts to get up. Xander rolls over and gets to his feet, bent over and Cole jumps up and hits a leg drop bulldog. The crowd cheers. Cole goes for the pin, hooking the leg.

Xander gets his shoulder up and rolls over. Cole rolls over. He starts to get up. Xander gets to his feet and turns to Cole and Cole kicks him in the ribs. He then manages to get Xander into the corner with an Irish whip. Cole turns and runs after him and goes for a running knee to the face of Xander, but Xander blocks it and catches Cole. He then runs out and hits a running sitout powerbomb.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Cole gets his shoulder up and rolls over. Xander just looks forward, rolling his eyes.

 

Sharper: “Cole getting his shoulder up despite getting caught and planting with that powerbomb!”

 

Winters: “That’s the problem when you’re a speedster against Xander. He’s so strong and he’ll just toss you around.”

 

Xander gets up and grabs Cole and starts to lift him up. He headbutts him. Cole staggers around and Xander headbutts him again. He then scoops him up, but Cole suddenly rolls him up in a small package.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Xander just kicks out in time. The crowd ohs and Cole gets up. Xander then boots him in the face. He grabs Cole with anger and drags him up before double underhooking him and then lifting him up and throwing him down with a standing Martial Bane. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Martial Bane! Standing version!”

 

Winters: “Cole nearly had him too. That just pissed him right off!”

 

Xander then goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The bell sounds.

 

“NECRO!”

 

The crowd roars as Xander gets up, hearing not his music playing, but instead the roar of the crowd. A few moments pass before we hear Shilo’s voice.

 

Shilo: “Oh Xannnnnnder! Have you thought about it? A fine match against Collin Cole and he almost had you. I was on the edge of my seat!”

 

Xander looks around, trying to find Shilo. The cameras search too, checking the top decks and the catwalks, but not finding him.

 

Winters: “Where is he?”

 

Shilo: “Didn’t you like the feeling…the adrenaline rush. Not the new tag team…they’ll be a fine addition to the roster. But I mean the feeling, the rush, the fear of nearly losing to someone who has wanted to break through the glass ceiling for so long. Did you feel it? The rush? Don’t you want to feel that more…all moments of a match. Come on Xander. We want more entertainment and I am happy to help you in providing it all to the fans! Come on Xander! Just say yes to the Shyguy!”

 

Xander just keeps looking around as Shilo continues to speak. He then turns and exits through the ropes and drops down.

 

Shilo: “We’re waiting Xander! Don’t you want to give the people a true clash of titans…a true explosion of entertainment?! Maybe next week? NECRO!”

 

Xander just storms to the back as Cole stirs. He just holds his back a bit as the cameras focus on Xander Valentine as he walks through the curtain and disappears to the back.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and we open up with a panning shot of the crowd before “Gold on the Ceiling” starts to play and we see a shot of the Supreme Saturday: Shot of Adrenaline logo come up on the screen.

 

Sharper: “Folks, we mentioned it to start, but it was announced last week and the blocks have been set. The first ever Shot of Adrenaline Tournament will begin on December 13th on Supreme Saturday. Sixteen individuals, two blocks, and the winner will be the Adrenaline Champion and have the bragging rights.”

 

We then see a list of the two blocks come up on the screen:

 

BLOCK ONE
Dawn Lohan
Red Rayne
Fury
Gable Winchester
Alex Young
Dylan Cent
Axel Porter
Thomas Watson

BLOCK TWO
Selena Frost
Chris Cannon
William Mason
Collin Cole
Ben McCaron
Bolu
Angelica Jones
Merrick Wiseman

 

Winters: “And a lot of people are talking about it. Some interesting omissions, but the blocks are interesting to say the least with Block A has to be the lucky one. Red Rayne in it and every match the Adrenaline Champion is in, the title is on the line.”

 

Sharper: “Not just that. But Dawn Lohan and Selena Frost in opposite blocks. Thomas Watson and Dawn Lohan, who have been seen together again, they are in the same block so at some point they’ll clash. What about Merrick Wiseman and Angelica Jones. Jones and Cannon.”

 

Winters: “Bolu will face Ben McCaron again. Mason and Cole too. Some great matchups. And a lot on the line.”

 

Sharper: “And here are the rules for this entire tournament…”

 

The rules come up on the screen.

 

Round-robin quarterfinals = matches have 10 minute time limit

Wins = 2 pts.

Draws = 1 pt.

Losses = 0 pts.

 

Top two in points in each block move on to the semi-finals (20 minute time limit) and winners face off in the finals (30 minute time limit).

 

Sharper: “There’s going to be some strategizing. This is all under Adrenaline rules, so no countouts. But everything else counts. Wins you want. But a draw still gets you a point. And with the short time limits, ten minutes. You need to be considering whether you want a quick win or go up against the clock.”

 

Winters: “And these matches will take place on Breakdown, House Shows, Pay Per View and much more. Should be a lot of fun.”

 

Sharper: “All of these individuals are going to have to be thinking about that every match. Huge opportunity for these sixteen individuals and it all starts December 13th on Supreme Saturday!”

Dylan Cent vs. Chris Cannon

 

Phillips –The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

The big screen above the entrance springs into life as the lights darken, the only image we see is that of a glistening perfect world logo. We then hear a woman’s voice that sounds a lot like Kelcey Wallace over the P. A System next as she addresses the arena.

“The Perfect World Presents...”

.CHRIS CANNON.

The opening guitar to Prometheus by Audio Machine hit’s over the P.A system next with an explosion of sound. There’s a sudden pause and then a spotlight shines down onto the stage where we see Chris Cannon, he stands proudly on the stage with an aura of confidences about him.

Phillips - Ladies and Gentleman, introducing at this time, being accompanied to the ring by his wife, Kelcey Wallace… Hailing from Hermosa Beach, CA... He stands at six foot and inches tall and weighed in tonight at two-hundred and thirty-five pounds, he is…

“The Man Professional Wrestling Needs”
CHRIS CAAAAAAANNOOOOOOOOOOON!!”

The crowd roars for the British superstar as he turns and out walks Kelcey Wallace, the couple begins to walk down towards the ring with a confident stride in his step. Cannon stops and turns to look at one fan that is extending a hand which he slaps before continuing the walk down the ramp with his wife alongside him.

Once at the bottom he and Kelcey share a kiss, with a smile Cannon then slides into the ring and then climbs the nearest turnbuckle while Kelcey begins to walk around the ring to the corner announcers table and takes a seat to watch the upcoming match. Chris then raises an arm into the air as the SCW fans cheer while taking photos…

Phillips - And his opponent…

“Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva begins to play throughout the arena as Dylan Cent walks with Crystal Ward, he proceeds to the ring while slapping hands with the fans…..

Phillips - Making his way to the ring from Cleveland, Ohio accompanied by Crystal Ward... he also stands at six foot two inches and weighed in tonight at two hundred and eight pounds... he is…

“The Centrepiece”
DYLAN CEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENT!!!

Dylan Cent kisses Crystal and slides into the ring, he looks over at Chris Cannon who gives him a respectful nod. Cent returns the gesture as he strides across the ring and climbs a turnbuckle throwing an up into the air as the crowd cheer.

Sharper - Well just a few moments ago we discussed the Shot of Adrenaline tournament and tonight we’ll get to see something of a showcase for what will be the opening round on Supreme Saturday.

Winters – Thomas Watson versus Merrick Wiseman, William Mason versus Gable Winchester and of course, Dylan Cent versus Chris Cannon to start us off. These are more teaser matches than anything mind you since none of the matches tonight feature anyone in the same block. Still, all of them have a fair shake of going far in the tournament, and heck, go all the way and win the whole thing. I’d pay good money to see any one of them take that title off Red Rayne’s hands.

Sharper – And not to mention these two could very well meet again in the second half of the tournament.

Winters - A replay of this match up in the tournament? Slim chances, but it’s possible. I’ve seen crazier things happen.

The referee pats down both competitors to ensure no foul play. Once he’s satisfied, he calls for the bell to get this one underway.

* DING! -- DING! -- DING! *

Both men encourage the crowd to make some noise as the two circle each other in the ring. The audience responds in kind, setting the stage as both competitors engage in an elbow and collar tie up.


They force each other back and forth, evenly matched for a time until Cannon slowly outmuscles Cent and forces him into the ropes. Before the ref can call for the break, Cent manages to switch so that it's Cannon being charged into the ropes instead. The ref calls for the break and after a few moments Cent obliges, stepping back a few paces, creating space between the two men. The crowd cheer at the show of fair play.

Sharper – These two young men have a lot of respect for each other, but they’ll most certainly see this as a chance to show the rest of the contenders in the Shot of Adrenaline what they bring to the table.

Winters – That’s right. Cannon’ s a former Adrenaline champion and while Cent hasn’t had a taste of SCW gold just yet, he has a history of getting the job done elsewhere. This could be a good one.

The two men take a moment prior to locking up again and Cent quickly catches Cannon in a side headlock and wrenches it in tight. Cannon drops to a knee from the torque, but soon rises back to his feet. His arms slip round Cent, perhaps for a back suplex, but Cent tightens his hold, relentless.

Switching it up, Cannon rushes forward, bringing Cent back into the ropes and then fires him off. Once Cent bounces off the ropes, both men run at each other for a shoulder block, but they both tank the blow and neither falls down. Cent quickly kicks Cannon in the gut and runs off the ropes, but Cannons darts forward to meet him and Cent gets mowed down with a fierce running clothesline!

Sharper – It’s Cannon who gets the upper hand in the early goings. The crowd really making some noise for both men here.

When Cent gets back to his knees, Cannon runs to knee Cent in the temple. The blow has Cent lurch up to his feet, dazed. A strong right hand from Cannon sends Cent into the turnbuckles. Cannon whips Cent across the ring into the turnbuckles opposite. Chris bolts after his prey, but Cent blocks him with a stiff back elbow that has Cannon reeling. Cent turns to face the corner and leaps up to the 2nd rope to follow up, but Cannon is all too aware and grabs Cent round the waist and lifts him off the turnbuckles! Cent yells out and tries to fight him off as he gets lifted back to the ring's centre. As Cannon tries to adjust, Cent elbows his way out of danger. He runs off the ropes only to be snapped up in a beautiful tilt a whirl back breaker!

Sharper – That backbreaker really packed a lot of force behind it!

Winters – Really solid execution there as well. Very smooth.

Both men stay down on the canvas as the crowd cheer, Cent arching his back having taken the full brunt of that backbreaker. Cannon allows him little reprieve as he gets back to his feet. He assists Cent back up only to club him right in the spine. Cent yells out as he falls back to his knees, gritting his teeth from the blow. Cannon pulls Cent back up again and drives his shoulder into Cent's back. Cent cries out, and falls down to his knee, trying to catch his breath. The crowd get behind both men with Crystal’s voice leading those cheering on Cent. Kelcey watches on calmly as her husband maintains control.

Cannon grabs Cent by the hair to reel him into a solid right hand, but Cent does not collapse onto the canvas. Another right hand, but Cent perseveres and does not go down. Cannon helps Cent back to a vertical base before hitting an echoing knife edged chop! Cent stumbles back but fires off a punch at Cannon's skull! Cannon replies with a chop and Cent hits back with a right hand. They exchange blows with the crowd oohing at every strike. Neither man is willing to go down. Cent starts to build steam, hitting a second successive punch, then a third, and a fourth but Cannon lets loose with a wicked backhand that finally drops Cent! The volume of the crowd picks up as Cannon recovers his breath.

Winters – Nothing like watching two guys beating the ever living snot out of each other.

Sharper – Chris Cannon’s the man who prefers a brawl between the two, but Cent’s really showing he can tough out a slugfest himself.

Cannon goes to bring Cent up to his feet again, but Cent punches him in the gut, taking the breath right out of him. Finding a second wind, Cent doesn’t let up on the attack, hitting a number of blows to the body of Cannon.

A European uppercut from Caannon has Cent stagger back and slumping forward into the turnbuckles. Cannon turns him round and hits a chop so hard Cent's chest turns an angry red. The crowd “Woooo” from the impact.

Winters – I always hated getting chopped. It stings like nobody’s business.

Sharper - Not a fan of them I take it?

Winters -You don’t wanna know. Trust me, Cent’s gonna feel them all night.

Cannon seems to agree. He rains down a storm of chops, not letting up at all. Each one throws Cent’s head back from the pain of it all.

Sharper – Good grief those chops are coming in hard and fast!

Dylan Cent has had enough. He switches off with Cannon so that Cannon’s in the turnbuckles and now Cent is the aggressor to return the favour tenfold. He lands a string of punches and forearm shots to the head and body of Cannon, yelling out with each strike, letting out a rush of frustration having taken all of Cannon’s earlier punishment.

The crowd watch on with excitement as Cannon suddenly switches off with Cent this time, throwing the lighter man into the corner! His recipe for pain has two ingredients: a chop, a forearm, a chop, a forearm, a chop, a forearm. The crowd counts them off, getting to ten before Cent crumples from a final hellacious chop.

Sharper - Cent and Cannon really getting fired up here and the crowd is loving it

Winters – Man, oh, man, they aren’t pulling their punches at all. I thought you said they liked each other?

Sharper- They do, but I guess they’re going all out to put each other down.

Cannon shakes out the cobwebs from Cent’s last offensive before stepping up to him again. The crowd are clearly divided, their voices being heard along with Crystal and Kelcey as they cheer on the man they want to get the victory.

Cannon whips Cent into the turnbuckles opposite. In close pursuit, Cannon charges in for a corner splash. Cent sidesteps it and Cannon eats nothing but turnbuckle. He comes stumbling out of the corner only to get crushed by a splash that comes from Cent!

Wasting no time, Cent tears into Cannon with an elbow to the jaw, a shot to the gut and a fierce uppercut that drops Cannon, leaving him seated in the corner. Cannon clutches at his face as Cent steps away, the crowd chanting for their heroes.

Cent takes a moment to look around the arena at the crowd before returning his gaze to his opponent. He rolls out his shoulders and neck before measuring Cannon up. He hits him with a series of punches, putting his weight behind every single one. Yet with each blow Cannon rises in defiance until he gets to a vertical base, a testament to his resiliency. The crowd start to cheer in anticipation as Kelcey and Crystal both show their support, cheering them on just as loudly.

Cannon steps out of the corner, forcing Cent back a step, but he fires off another right hand, yet Cannon keeps coming. Determined, Cent keeps piling on the punches before Cannon responds with one of his own. Cent looks unfazed as he returns the favour.

Both men exchange punches until one shot from Cannon leaves Cent winded. Cannon hits a trio of punches before Cent replies with a spinning back elbow. He punches Cannon again and again until one last blow decks him and the Englishman falls to the canvas. The crowd roars for both competitors, delighted by their tenacity. Cent paces the ring for a moment before bringing Cannon to his feet. He forces the Brit into the ropes before whipping him across the ring. The effort's reversed and it's Cent who is sent running.

Cannon looks for the back body drop, but Cent nails the former Adrenaline champion with a low dropkick to the knee! Cannon drops to a knee, but soon rises back to his feet along with Cent, but gets clocked with a--

SPINNING WHEEL KICK
By Dylan Cent!

Winters - DAYUM! Cannon just got his lights turned off!

Sharper – A powerful kick from Cent and Cannon just took it all! He might be in trouble here!

Winter – He might be in Paradise after that!

Almost gracefully, Cannon falls back to the canvas from the jarring blow! Cent dives for the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

SHOULDER UP!!!

Cent accepts the kickout and goes straight back to work. Picking up Cannon’s legs, he turns the Brit over into a Texas cloverleaf. Cannon’s trapped in the centre of the ring and yells out as the hold is fully locked in.

Sharper – Cent not at all concerned Cannon kicked out and this is why! Texas Cloverleaf locked in and this could really wear Chris Cannon down.

Winters – He’s got him in the centre too. Keep him there long enough and he could make him tap.

The ref drops to the mat to monitor Cannon, asking him if he wants to end the match. Shouting “No!” the Englishman claws at the canvas, desperately trying to pull himself toward the ropes. Soon enough he manages to drag himself into reaching distance of the bottom rope.

To his dismay, Cent erases his efforts by trudging back to the ring’s centre; this time, he puts his weight onto Cannon’s back, yelling at Cannon to tap. Cannon yells out in pain, but is adamant that he will not tap. Through the pain he hears the encouraging words of his wife and he finds his strength. He starts to scramble toward the ropes. Meters become feet. Feet become inches. Finally, he drapes a hand over the bottom rope, and the crowd applaud Cannon’s struggle. Cent releases him and steps away as the ref briefly checks on Cannon.

Sharper – No submission, but the damage is done. The cloverleaf did exactly what it needed to there.

Winter – Exactly. Never underestimate how much influence a submission hold can have on the match. If Cent keeps working that back, the longer this goes on, the easier it’ll be for him to get the win – pinfall or submission.

Cent circles round the ring taking in the crowd’s cheers before honing in on Cannon. He stomps at his back and Cannon rolls back to the ring’s centre trying to make some distance as he recovers. Cent allows Cannon to get back to his feet as he determines his next move.

He pulls out a leg out from underneath Cannon, but Cannon hops on his other foot keeping his balance. He quickly jumps up and nails an enziguri that sends Cent down to a knee. Cent staggers back up to his feet groggily, but once he sees Cannon getting up, he closes in on him. Unfortunately for him, Cannon meets him with a T-Bone suplex!

Sharper – Big suplex from Cannon there. Just what he needed to turn the tables on Dylan Cent.

Recalling the backbreaker’s effects to Cent earlier, Cannon grabs Cent's legs, steps through and turns Cent over to apply a sharpshooter. Cent cries out as Cannon stays seated on him, pain shooting through him. Cannon pulls back once he notices Cent get onto his hands, drawing out a harsh shout of agony. Cent starts to pull himself along the canvas and reaches out, his fingers grazing the bottom rope. The cloverleaf still fresh in his mind, Cannon is merciless and takes Cent right back to the ring's centre.

Winters – Oh, ho, ho, now this is something. That’s a lesson right there. So remember kids, karma’s a real bi-

Sharper – Don’t tell me you were about to say what I think you were gonna say.

Winters – What? People use that word all the time.

Sharper – You were addressing children!!

Winters – They grow up so fast these days. Might as well speed up the process.

Cent shakes his furiously, denying Cannon's demands to tap out. He stretches out an arm desperately for the ropes. Too far, he realises. Digging deep, he pushes himself off the canvas and walks himself towards the ropes with his hands and with a final lurch, he manages to grasp the bottom rope. Shaking his head at Cent's persistence, Cannon releases the hold.

Sharper – Cannon giving Cent a taste of his own medicine. He’ll be feeling worse off though with Chris Cannon having already targeted his back.

Rubbing his own back, Cannon takes a moment before helping Cent to his feet. He whips Cent into a corner and follows up by drilling him with a running clothesline. Only a single arm hanging over the ropes keeps Cent upright. Cannon stretches out his back then turns Cent round to face the turnbuckles. He lifts Cent up onto the turnbuckles and joins him up top.

Sharper- Oh, my. Chris Cannon’s looking to hit something real big here.

The crowd stirs at the dangerous predicament. Crystal Ward looks concerned as she calls out to Dylan. Some in the crowd start to “Ooh” in anticipation at the sight of Cannon applying a rear waistlock. Others even get out of their seats, wanting a better view. The reason why becomes all too clear when Cannon lets fly with an--

AVALANCHE RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX
By Chris Cannon!

Cent comes crashing down with a thunderous thud. The crowd go into a frenzy.

Sharper – GOOD LORD, MAN!!!

Winters – That might be it!

Without missing a beat, Cannon hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

THR-SHOULDER UP!!!

Saying Chris Cannon was in disbelief would be an understatement.

Sharper – A near fall! Good gracious, It’s remarkable Cent’s still conscious let alone able to kick out!

Winters – Cannon didn’t even take long to make the cover.

Cent clutches at his back as Cannon stands up. Cannon assists Cent to his feet and scoops him up. He looks to hit a shoulder breaker but Cent slips out behind him. Turning around, Cannon goes to kick at Cent’s ribs, but the Ohio native catches Cannon’s boot and tosses his leg aside. However, Cannon spins through and nails a stiff Dragon Whip! Cent drops to the canvas from the blow. Cannon goes for another cover and hooks both legs.

ONE!

TWO!

T-KICKOUT!!!

Sharper – Looks like Cannon will need something bigger to put Cent away tonight.

Cent’s pants are very audible as he lies on the canvas. Cannon looks ready to finish the match. Cannon eyes Cent up as he circles round him, giving Dylan time to get up. Once Cent gets to his hands and knees, Cannon goes to run off the ropes. In response, Cent quickly rises and tries to catch Cannon in a sleeper, but Cannon blocks by catching Cent round his forearms. He goes to launch Cent into the ropes but it’s reversed and it’s Cannon who’s sent running. On the return, he tries to catch Cent with a running clothesline but Cent ducks it!

Cent bolts ahead and bounces off the ropes and steamrolls into Cannon with a cross body block!

Sharper -Cover!

ONE!

TWO!

TH-KICKOUT!!!

The Crowd applaud both men for their efforts, enjoying what they’re seeing. Both men stay on the canvas; sweat stands out all over their skin as they stare up into the lights. Cannon manages to roll onto his stomach, but achieves no more than that. The ref starts to count.

1!

2!

3!

4!

5!

6!

Both contestants crawl onto hands and knees, steadily rising. Cent is up first and he throws the first punch. Cannon replies in kind. Back and forth they go, until Cent takes control and almost floors Cannon with a strong jab. Still standing, Cannon tries for a wild swing, but Cent ducks under and goes behind to hook Cannon’s arms. Cent lifts him up and over for a powerful t tiger suplex!

Despite crashing onto his head, somehow, Cannon returns to his feet but is clearly out of it as he stumbles around almost drunkenly around the ring. Cent measures him up, itching to strike at the right moment. Once Cannon’s staggers into the path of Cent, Cent kicks the Brit in the gut and delivers his Double Arm DDT—

INTO THE FIRE
By Dylan Cent!

Cent fires a fist in the air, confident of victory before he hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!!!

THRE-NOOOOOOOooooo!!!

Sharper – Cannon just squeezes the shoulder up in the nick of time!

Cent stares at Cannon for a moment, before shaking it off. He quickly goes to leap over the ropes and climbs the turnbuckles. He readies himself as he watches Cannon slowly get to his feet before leaping and connecting with a diving cross body!

Not enough! Cent signals he’s going airbourne once more before scaling to the top again. A second later, Cent is flying through the air to hit Cannon with his trademark—

HOUSTON HANGOVER KNEEDROP
By Dylan Cent!

But he finds but nothing but canvas! Cannon rolls out of the way and Cent crashes and burns! The crowd oohs. Crystal looks concerned at Cent’s crash landing. Kelcey meanwhile sighs in relief, before managing a smile at Chris still being in the game.

Sharper - High risk, high reward. Didn’t pay off this time for Dylan Cent.

Winters – That’s what the Adrenaline division is all about. Twists and turns at every corner.

Cannon stays down, still feeling it from the diving cross body and is unable to take advantage. Cent lies on his side, groaning after his fatal error. He looks over to see Cannon still down. He tries to crawl over, but slumps, physically drained. The crowd start a chant, trying to stir both men onwards. Cannon clutches at the ropes and uses them to help himself back to his feet.

He takes several moments to recover and soon, Cent also gets back to his feet. Cannon runs behind Cent and hits him with a clothesline to the back of the head that jars him. Cannon runs ahead Cent into the ropes and on the return, Cent tries for a clothesline of his own. Cannon ducks under the outstretched arm and grabs hold of the arm. He quickly slaps on a full nelson and lifts Cent into the air for--

THE SET PIECE
By Chris Cannon!

But Cent kicks his legs out into the air, preventing any lift-off and manages to squirm out of Cannon’s grasp. Cent forearms the former Adrenaline champion and sends him into the ropes - a mistake, for Cannon comes barrelling in like his namesake, utterly levelling Cent with his devastating spear--

C4
By Chris Cannon!

Sharper – C4! Cannon just went into Cent like a train!

The crowd goes into an uproar as Cannon makes the cover.

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!!!

Cannon rolls off of Cent, exhausted as cheers descend upon both competitors. Kelcey rises from her seat delighted as the referee calls for the bell.

* DING! -- DING! -- DING! *

The ref helps Cannon to his feet, raising his arm in victory as Jason Phillips makes the official announcement.

Here is Your Winner, by Pinfall
“The Man Professional Wrestling Needs”
CHRIS CAAAAAAANNOOOOOOOOOOON!!”

Sharper – Well! If this is a sign for what’s to come in the Shot of Adrenaline tournament, we’re in for a treat!

Winters – That was brutal. Could have gone either way and I’m not just saying that! That was great. A well-deserved win. Cannon’s gonna feel like he can take on the world come Saturday.

Sharper - Stay tuned, folks. We'll be back with more great action right after this!

Having recovered, Dylan sits up on the canvas and is offered a hand by Cannon. He accepts it and is pulled to his feet. Both men share some praises and a handshake. Cent exits the ring and is joined by Crystal, leaving Cannon and Kelcey to celebrate his win.

We then cut backstage to see Jessica Winters standing with Mr. D outside of his office. The crowd cheers seeing him.

 

Jessica: “I am here with the boss, Mr. D and last week was an interesting show. More low key but some significant moments if I can get your comment on. Firstly, Rachel Foxx went after Matt Auclair and security was a bit slow to respond.”

 

Mr. D: “I guess they were.”

 

Jessica pauses and turns to him.

 

Jessica: “Was this by-“

 

Mr. D: “Security will be wherever they are needed.”

 

Jessica: “Alright…well, speaking of security, Shawn Winters was attacked by New Eden. Security managed to step in, but the fact remains that a former wrestler and commentator was attacked.”

 

Mr. D: “Indeed and it only forces my hand more. See, New Eden needs to realize something. They had their fun. They terrorized this company, but one thing now is clear. If they are going to keep with their attacks, their violence and their tactics, this roster will keep banding together. Their aura of invincibility is gone. They will not take that ring and they will not run this company. And now…they’re not even going to get their time on camera. See, if they’re going to react with violence to everything, I’m not going to give them the opportunity to be violent and so I’m no longer agreeing to send any interviewer down there to talk to them. They can come to the show, they come out to matches and I will treat them as a problem until they either play along or leave.”

 

The crowd roars a bit.

 

Sharper: “Wow…”

 

Mr. D: “Will neuter their careers if I have to.”

 

Jessica: “And what about Silk who we have heard did not arrive with them, but has been seen backstage.”

 

Mr. D turns to her.

 

Mr. D: “As I said…if security is needed. They’ll be there. I’m done screwing around with this.”

 

Mr. D turns to Jessica as Jessica nods. The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We return to Breakdown and we see the Breakdown logo come up on the screen before we see a shot of Shaun Cruze and then following tweet on the screen.

 

Impact Player @ShaunCruze  ·  Dec 3

Been confirmed, hamstring tear, Doc reckons I'll be our 4-6 weeks so thats my 2014 over. Been a heck of a year though #thankyou #support

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Some bad news for fans of Shaun Cruze. While training, Shaun Cruze injured himself.”

 

Winters: “A tough bit of news, but something Silas’ World has to be loving. A lot of people do.”

 

Sharper: “His 2014 largely done as a result. He’s not here at the moment, but we expect him back next week and you wonder what he’s going to think about what we saw earlier tonight with David Helms, Regan Street, Kelcey Wallace and Silas’ World.”

 

The tweet remains on the screen for a few moments longer before we cut away.

We then open up backstage to see James Marsh-Asher standing next to Marisa Condolesa.

 

Condolesa: “Hello everyone. I’m here with James Marsh-Asher and James, you had a tough loss against Red Rayne at Total War. A bit surprising, but you’re not one of the sixteen in the Shot of Adrenaline tournament starting on December 13th on Supreme Saturday.”

 

Marsh-Asher: “I’m not, but at the same time, I’m not disappointed about that. I had my opportunity and the fact is that I managed to give Red Rayne a fight she needed to have. See, a lot of people can look at my recent record. I’ve challenged for three separate titles and in each case, I was that close. I’m starting to get to a point where I know where I really do stand and it’s not just a matter of having some beast inside of me I can unleash. I also learned something else.”

 

Marsh-Asher pauses for a moment and looks up.

 

Marsh-Asher: “That Red Rayne better be careful if she and New Eden decide to break their brief silence and do more than just attacking interviewers. They’re losing their interviews. It’s a shame, but I’ll sure they’ll find other ways. But if they try to put the entire roster on notice as they have been, Red Rayne just has to go back to Total War and see what happens when she had to take me on…or what happened when the roster banded together in Tactical Warfare. We are not going to be just taking it. And Red Rayne…if you want to go again, I’ll be happy to lock up once more.”

 

The crowd cheers as Marsh-Asher turns back to Jessica.

 

Jessica: “Thank you for your time, James. Back to ringside.”

 

We cut back to ringside.

The eyes all focus on the stage as “A Stranger I Remain” hits over the P.A System. The crowd starts to buzz as Alexis Quinne walks out from the back as well as Grundy and El Rudo. Alexis is sporting a green, silver and black beater with PUNK HAZARD on the front. El Rudo has a bucket of powder in one hand and a pole with a PUNK HAZARD flag on it. Grundy is sporting a black jumpsuit with the PUNK HAZARD logo on the back in green. The San Francisco native looks at the crowd. She starts her strut down to the ring with Rudo and Grundy.

Sharper: “Alexis Quinne joining us and last week, a bit of an odd turn of events.”

 

Winters: “I don’t know what she was thinking, but PUNK HAZARD made sure Quinne wasn’t going to win the Women’s Title.”

 

Sharper: “And you see here on this replay from last week. Autumn countered and into the roll-up. Quinne may have kicked out. I don’t know, but Autumn got nailed by Grundy and Rudo.”


BREAKDOWN – LAST WEEK:

Quinne runs at her and jumps up for the Ditsy Tour, but Autumn throws her off to the corner. Quinne hits and Autumn lunges at her, but Quinne moves out of the way. She then runs at Autumn and pushes her forward into the ropes and goes to roll her up, but Autumn rolls through too and leans back.

 

1!

 

2!

 

And before the three comes as Quinne struggles to get out, Grundy reaches in and pulls Autumn by the hair and then pulls her back before Rudo runs along the apron and nails her with a boot as she hangs over the middle rope, trying to get away. The crowd ohs and Autumn falls back. The Breakdown logo comes back up and we see Rudo coming in and nailing Autumn again as she falls back from a different angle.

 

Sharper: “Just a vicious shot. Now you could argue that Quinne couldn’t get out, but still, this seemed like a planned attack.”

 

Winters: “I don’t know. Was this a plan in case Quinne was in trouble?”

 

Sharper: “But then she’s waited so long for a shot. I know for a fact she wanted this shot more than anything.”


We cut to the ring to see Quinne in it with the rest of PUNK HAZARD. El Rudo then raises the PUNK HAZARD flag up high to boos. Alexis smiles widely as she points to it and then she ascends the nearest turnbuckle. She makes mocking faces towards the audience while mouthing off. Alexis jumps off and sits on top of the turnbuckle in the corner with a smirk on her face as El Rudo grabs a microphone and turns before handing it to Quinne. Quinne remains on the top turnbuckle as Grundy and Rudo remain in the ring.

 

Quinne: “I guess a lot of people are wondering what was up last week, huh? All of you clumpnuggets are sitting there wondering why Grundy and Rudo took Autumn’s pretty little head out and cost me the Women’s Title. You’re probably all going, but Alexis…you could’ve kicked out!”

 

Quinne looks around and the crowd boos.

 

Winters: “Uh…yeah.”

 

Quinne looks around.

 

Quinne: “Well, that’s because I saw last week as a little chance to send a message to little Autumn. Maybe I have HER attention now.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Quinne: “See, I may have kicked out. I didn’t though. And Grundy and Rudo knew exactly what to do. See, unlike when Collin was running the show, we’re all on the same page and Autumn, you found out what happens when PUNK HAZARD takes an interest in something. And that interest is in MY Women’s Title.”

 

The crowd boos. Quinne jumps down off the top turnbuckle and steps forward, looking out at the crowd.

 

Quinne: “See, Autumn…for months, we were friends, drinking buddies, acquaintances, allies, whatever…And I saw you step up to face anyone, challenge Katie Steward…how did that go for you…and meanwhile, if you cared about competition, I was right there the entire time. But that’s fine. See, Autumn, you had you time to shine as the Women’s Champion. But me….I’ve had to worry about Cole, I’ve had to be supportive and stuff and that’s fine…because I knew one thing…I was going to get my shot and I have a chance to finally get back MY title. The title that according to SCW, I never won. It’s not on the title history, but we all know I held it. And now I have my chance to be the thorn in your side. But I know how you think.”

 

Quinne smiles as she looks down, twisting her leg a bit before looking up, being a bit coy.

 

Quinne: “See, Autumn…you’ve been running around and picking fights lately, so I’m picking one for you and Autumn…maybe what happened last week was just the beginning. See, Grundy, Rudo and I had a plan. If I got into trouble, Grundy and Rudo would make sure I was standing at the end of it. And you had me. I’ll give you it, but just like you want people to look at the Women’s Title in awe…you want people’s attention…I want MY title back! I want MY title back and for the whole world to recognize it! And that’s where you and I have some issues. See, I don’t care about competition. I don’t care about how great the matches are and how many people want to win the Women’s Title. I just care about it being around my waist…and Autumn, I know how I’m going to get it.”

 

Quinne looks right at the camera, smiling.

 

Quinne: “Because while you want the competition, you can even come out and say I have to wait. You do that…and PUNK HAZARD is going to make sure every single one of your defenses end in NOTHING. You can win them all. We’ll make sure you don’t get anyone’s attention. You become an afterthought just like you made me…just like SCW has made my title reign….And we will keep doing that until the Women’s Title is mine! Because while I have no problem making it worth NOTHING to you, to SCW, to the women in the back…it’s everything to me. So…maybe see last week as how did…it was a mulligan. A signal for a do-over. And I will keep taking them…until I get my title. See, I don’t care how many times it takes…I’ll ruin your career to get it. And all you had to do…was give something back so long ago.”

 

The crowd boos as Quinne then throws the microphone up into the air. Rudo watches it and catches it and jumps up and down as Quinne smiles and looks around. Grundy then turns and lifts her up onto his shoulder as Quinne takes the PUNK HAZARD banner and holds it.

 

Sharper: “Did I hear that right? She’ll willingly take losses just to force Autumn to play her game and to ensure she’ll get her title.”

 

Winters: “She called it a mulligan….”

 

Sharper: “She wanted the shot last week…but it was all to just start something. She wants Autumn’s attention…but that’s unheard of. And damn risky.”

 

Winters: “Does she look like someone that cares? And does she look like someone who’s capable of making Autumn Valentine’s life hell to make sure she gets any and all shots she wants?”

 

Sharper: “But the precedent?!”

 

Winters: “That’s Autumn’s problem!”

 

The crowd continues to boo as Quinne waves the banner and Rudo starts to yell into the microphone as the boos only continue more. Quinne just smiles as we then cut away.

The scene opens up backstage as Sienna Swann and Harmony Fisher are talking.

 

Harmony: “Shame about Cruze…”

 

Sienna: “I guess he was wound too tightly. A true shame. If only he had a release.”

 

Sienna smirks as Harmony looks at her.

 

Harmony: “Well maybe if he just got it on with Kelcey, it would be over there.”

 

Sienna: “Not even that.”

 

Harmony: “Really?”

 

B.Real then chimes in.

 

B.Real: “Ey! Not gonna let that bastard get ‘is grub-hands all over ya tight body. That be like some sort of super whack BS!”

 

Angelica: “Relax B.Real…she’s just having some fun.”

 

Sienna: “Exactly.”

 

Angelica: “Plus, it’s a bit of karma for what happened to Silas.”

 

Harmony: “And we’ll have to hear Jake Starr act like he’s something special.”

 

Angelica: “And is he?”

 

Harmony: “Hell no.”

 

Angelica: “Exactly.”

 

Sienna: “Yeah, he’s not me.”

 

Sienna smiles as B.Real just nods.

 

B. Real: “Damn right, you fine, gurl!”

 

Angelica turns back to Harmony.

 

Angelica: “You made your case tonight. Now, we just have to worry about making a couple of statements…and keeping David in line. You know what he wants.”

 

Harmony: “Yeah. David can just make all of us stronger if he just remembers to listen to Silas.”

 

Angelica: “And that’s us?”

 

Harmony nods.

 

Angelica: “And then the rest of us just need to do what he would do for us. World Tag Titles back…Shot of Adrenaline Tournament for me….and Sienna…”

 

Sienna: “Be perfect.”

 

Sienna smiles.

 

???: “Then what about me?”

 

The camera turns to show Trista Foxx-Porter and Axel Porter.

 

Trista: “I think I can help there….make everyone kneel before Silas’ World.”

 

Angelica: “I think we’re going to be fine and when Silas is back…oh he’ll be proud.”

 

Harmony: “Unless Brittany does something stupid…”

 

Angelica: “Yeah…well…”

 

Sienna: “She’ll be fine.”

 

Sienna smiles as Trista and Axel Porter walk forward and join the rest of them as the scene fades to black.

Jessica: “Welcome back to Breakdown. I am standing here with Alexander Sire, an elder statesman in the world of wrestling and last week, you had to suffer through arguably one of the most humiliating moments of your career. Let’s take a look here on the monitor.”

 

BREAKDOWN – LAST WEEK:

As Axel regains his footing, Sire jumps up onto his shoulders for Knightfall! He goes to flip through, but Axel pushes back, sending Sire flipping alone onto his feet. However, as Sire lands, he leaves himself open for a vicious low blow from Trista!

Jessica: “First the low blow here, but this is the true disgrace. After that, Axel Porter forced you to kneel down in front of him.”

As Sire lay on the mat doubled over, Axel turns to face him. He looks down at Sire at yells out…

Axel: “Show respect, old man! KNEEL!”

Trista rolls Sire onto his stomach, pulling back on his hair to force him to his knee. She keeps her foot on the back of his leg to keep him from rising any further. As she laughs, Axel extends his arms, lifting his head and closing his eyes. The crowd showers the scene in boos.

 

We cut back to a live shot as Sire looks down at the monitor and looks up and to Jessica.

 

Sire: “And that’s I guess how people figure to get respect these days. The problem is that Axel Porter only showed one thing. He’s desperate to feel like a big man. Trista Foxx-Porter is clearly the one calling the shots and from what I just saw prior to the commercial break, it looks like Silas Mason may have his fingers in the pie too. Axel Porter is just another pawn. But he’s a pawn that wants to act like a king and I have a problem with that. Now, my knees may be a bit stiff. My joints may not be as limber as they were, but Axel…I assure you, I won’t be kneeling next time we meet.”

 

Sire looks into the camera as the crowd cheers.

 

Jessica: “Thank you for your time, Alexander. Back to ringside.”

 

Sire nods as he steps back and we cut back to ringside.

Regan Street vs. Brett Sinclare

 

Every single light in the entire arena suddenly goes out, leaving the fans to murmur in confusion for a moment. Suddenly, a loud voice yells out from the PA system.

“LIGHTS!”

A spotlight suddenly comes on, shining down on the empty stage.

“CAMERA!”

The Tron slowly returns to life with one of those green movie preview screens saying it’s approved for all audiences.

“ACTION!”

The next thing we know a large amount of gold pyro suddenly goes off on stage as "Superstar" by Saliva begins blasting, the Tron now shifting to show a mix of in-ring and movie clips of the self-proclaimed A-List Superstar. Brett Sinclare himself struts out onto the stage and into the spotlight, a very expensive pair of shades hiding his eyes and an arrogant smile on his lips. He slowly extends his arms out to his sides with his open palms to the sky as they slowly rise, and this is when the other lights come back on, albeit still dimmed considerably, and paparazzi appear from out of nowhere to swarm Sinclare and get some great photos. They and the spotlight follow him down the ramp as he walks with a confident swagger in his step, occasionally pulling down his shades a bit to wink at an attractive lady in the front row. He hops up onto the apron and leans his back against the ropes with his arms outstretched again to allow the paparazzi one last photo op before he enters the ring and they retreat back up the ramp. Sinclare slowly removes his shades and the white fur coat he’s also wearing and carefully sets them in his corner before posing against the turnbuckles as he awaits the bell.

 

Sharper: “Brett Sinclare not pleased about this match, despite the fact he is facing a former World Champion.”

 

Winters: “Well after how we saw Regan earlier, do you blame him? He’s seeing this as a threat to his career, both in the ring and in Hollywood.”

 

Sharper: “Then maybe he should reconsider one of those vocations.”

 

The arena goes dark. The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is seen with a roar. Fireworks blast off the entrance as “Who's Next” by Porcelain Black plays throughout the arena. We then see Regan Street walk out from the back and instead of even playing to the crowd or posing, she heads straight for the ring, just locking eyes with Sinclare. Sinclare looks around as Regan then jogs down and slides into the ring as the crowd roars, cheering.

Winters: “And Regan’s coming right for him! Ref get in there!”

 

Sharper: “Here she comes!”

 

Regan gets up and Sinclare backs up and Regan runs right to him and kicks him in the ribs and then again, knocking him right into the corner. Sinclare tries to cover up as Regan stomps away on Sinclare. The referee tries to get her off and counts. Regan meanwhile keeps stomping away at Sinclare, causing him to drop lower and lower until going right into a seated position in the corner.

Regan backs up and storms around the ring. Sinclare rolls over, holding his ribs. He grabs at the ropes and starts to pull himself up before Regan runs at him and jumps up and knees him in the side of the head. Sinclare falls over and down to the mat. The referee again forces her to get back. Sinclare rolls to the floor.

 

Sharper: “Sinclare getting a reprieve. Regan getting told to get back.”

 

Winters: “She’s not listening. Look! She’s going to the floor.”

 

Regan turns as the official turns back to count as Regan drops down and rolls to the floor. (1) Sinclare starts to get up and the official notices Regan and yells at her to get back in. Regan runs at Sinclare and Sinclare turns and Regan clotheslines him down. Sinclare rolls over. Regan turns and grabs him. The referee restarts his count. (1) Regan drags Sinclare up and rolls him into the ring. She rolls in after and gets up and hits an elbow drop. She goes for the pin.

Sinclare pushes her off. Regan rolls over and looks out before turning back to Sinclare as Sinclare gets up. She grabs him by the hair and Sinclare reaches up and rakes her eyes. The crowd boos. Regan turns around. She rubs her eyes and turns back and Sinclare pulls her into a short-arm clothesline.

 

Sharper: “And Sinclare taking advantage of Regan’s aggressiveness. The eye rake. The clothesline.”

 

Winters: “Now the opportunity to get the biggest win of his career. He can dwarf what he did to Tommy Valentine at Total War.”

 

Regan starts to get up and Sinclare clubs her in the back before kicking her in the ribs before hooking her up and hitting a vertical suplex. Regan winces and Sinclare  goes for the pin.

Regan kicks out. She rolls over and starts to stir. Sinclare grabs her and hits a shoulder jawbreaker and Regan falls back to the mat. Sinclare looks up and smiles before turning and exiting to the apron. He climbs up to the top rope as Regan stirs. She then starts to get up and Sinclare goes for a double-axe-handle smash, but Regan moves out of the way and nails Sinclare in the ribs. Sinclare falls to his knees. Regan then dropkicks him in the side of the head. He rolls over and Regan mounts him and nails him with a series of hard right hands to the side of the head. Sinclare covers up and takes a few more shots before Regan gets up. She walks around the ring. Sinclare relaxes and Regan leg drops him in the face before getting up and hitting another leg drop and then getting up and hitting a third. The crowd cheers.

 

Sharper: “Three leg drops and the onslaught continues.”

 

Winters: “Or not. There’s a pin.”

 

Sharper: “She may have it!”

 

Regan hooks the leg.

Sinclare gets his shoulder up. The crowd boos. Regan then grabs Sinclare by the hair and drags him up a bit before kneeing him in the side of the head. She turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and goes for a swinging neckbreaker, but Sinclare slides out and grabs her before hitting a back suplex. The crowd ohs and Regan rolls over. She holds her head in pain and Sinclare rolls away. Both then get up and Regan steps forward and Sinclare jumps up and hits a beautiful dropkick, knocking her back down. Sinclare goes for the pin.

Regan kicks out. Sinclare gets up first as Regan holds her head in pain.

 

Sharper: “Crossbody from the top not enough.”

 

Winters: “May not be much more though. He’s got a lot of momentum.”

 

Sharper: “Regan finding herself in the odd position of having to figure out a way to turn it around.”

 

Sinclare rolls over and gets up. Regan stirs and Sinclaire just grabs her and pulls her in and smiles. He then lifts her up for a suplex, but Regan spins through and lands behind Sinclare. She then grabs him by the hair and throws him back with a mat slam. Sinclare rolls over, holding his hard. Regan then runs into the ropes and bounces off. She hits a running knee lift and Sinclare falls back. He turns and Regan grabs Sinclare and throws him back with a Russian leg sweep. She rolls through into a pin.

Sinclare gets his shoulder up. Regan looks up as the crowd roars. Sinclare stirs and Regan stomps him in the side and then again and again. Sinclare gets to the ropes. Regan stomps him a few more times before the referee calls for the break. Regan backs away.

 

Sharper: “Sinclare again to the ropes. Regan just stomping away and again having to be pushed off.”

 

Winters: “She needs to be careful. She’s risked disqualification a few times and we know she’s pissed, but still!”

 

Sinclare gets up and turns and takes a wild swing for a clothesline, but Regan ducks. Sinclare turns around and Regan grabs Sinclare’s head and then hits the Catnap. The crowd ohs and cheers. Regan rolls over and goes for the lateral press.

The crowd cheers as Regan pushes off and gets up. She then looks around before the referee goes to raise her hand. Regan pulls it away and walks forward. She looks at Sinclare as Sinclare remains down. She then turns and looks around the arena before turning and walking over to the camera. She then leans into it.

 

Regan: “You think I need any help?!”

 

Regan pushes back and steps back before turning and exiting to the floor. She starts to head to the back.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street fired up. Sinclare found that out.”

 

Winters: “And he’ll be feeling it for a while. But is it really smart for her to immediately go after Silas’ World right there?”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know. That depends on whatever this deal is between Silas Mason and David Helms!”

We open up backstage again in the locker room area to see Marisa Condolesa standing with the SCW Women’s Champion, Autumn Valentine.

 

Marisa: “Welcome backstage and I am here with the SCW Women’s Champion, Autumn Valentine…”

 

Autumn straightens out her Women’s Championship.

 

Marisa: “A little while ago, we heard from Alexis Quinne, someone you have called an ally in many ways, essentially vow to make your life a living hell, destroying the prestige of that title all so she can get it back.”

 

Autumn shakes her head.

 

Autumn: “And I guess all of my thoughts were right. There’s a reason she was always an ally, not a friend. We’d go out for some drinks because we both weren’t one of the cool kids. But Alexis is just that though….a kid. She thinks like a child. She acts like a child and she threw a temper tantrum. Like the kid in the playground who changes the rules to the game when she knows she’s not going to win, she’s doing that here. And I don’t know if she recalls, but I’ve been dealing with Selena Frost, with Rachel Foxx, with New Eden…sorry, Alexis…but you’ll need to do more than sick PUNK HAZARD on me to frustrate me or to do anything. All you look like is a sore loser and if this is how you’re going to look to get another shot…I’m right to have ignored you months ago.”

 

Autumn just shakes her head.

 

Marisa: “Thank you for your comments. More Breakdown…after this.”

 

Marisa turns to Autumn and says something to her as Autumn says something back as we cut to commercial.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and we see Regan Street getting tackled down from behind as the crowd roars. We then see Silk on her back, hammering away on her from behind, nailing her over and over and over again. Regan covers up and Silk just keeps hammering away.

 

Sharper: “Silk! Silk going after Regan Street!”

 

Knots: “Where the hell did she come from?!”

 

Sharper: “Obviously she was backstage and she’s just hammering away on Regan!”

 

Regan covers up and Silk then jumps up and backs away as a couple of officials come over. Silk backs up as the officials first check on Regan.

 

Silk: “Let David know…My Zhu has plans.”

 

Silk turns and runs off as some officials jog after her with security coming onto the scene and a couple of guards heading after her.

 

Sharper: “She’s getting away again! Damn it!”

 

Knots: “She’s slippery. Just hiding in the shadows!”

 

Regan rolls over, wincing in pain as she holds her head. The officials check on her as we cut back to the ring.

The beginning riff to "Unsung" begins blaring through the PA system and the crowd begins cheering as the arena lights begin to flicker along with the beat of the music. Out from behind the curtain comes James Evans, decked out in black hoodie, with the hood over his head, walking slowly. The SCW Underground Championship is over his shoulder. James keeps his eyes focused on the ring. James stands outside of the ring, keeping his hands in the pockets of his hoodie. He then turns and stares out at the crowd. James slides in underneath the bottom rope. James slowly stands up and picks up his title. He then walks across the ring.

 

Sharper: “James Evans heading to the ring and last week, he threw out an open challenge.”

 

Winters: “Why do people keep doing this? Nothing ever good comes from it.”

 

Sharper: “Well, he’s moving forward. He’s beaten Foxx and Auclair. He’s looking to see who else wants a shot at the Underground Title!”

 

James Evans grabs a microphone and walks back over to the middle of the ring. He then looks around as his music fades out. The crowd cheers James as James Evans takes a few moments and looks around the arena. Then looks to the entrance way and brings the microphone to his mouth.

 

James: “Last week, I made it clear. I was going to come out here and see who is next. I’ve beaten two people that are synonymous with this belt to hold onto it. Rachel Foxx and Matt Auclair. Now, I know things may not be finished with either of them…but while the two of them seem to want to destroy each other…I want to know who else wants a shot to come after me and take their hand at the Underground Title!”

 

James looks around as the crowd cheers.

 

James: “I’ve gone to the back. I talked to the boss. And he gave the nod. Next week on Breakdown, this title…”

 

James holds up the SCW Underground Championship.

 

James: “The Underground Title is going to be on the line. I just want to know who the balls to take me on in that setting. No rules. Anything goes. A fight to see who should be champion!”

 

The crowd roars as James Evans looks around. He then turns to the entrance way.

 

James: “Anyone?”

 

James keeps looking right at the entrance way.

 

Winters: “Maybe not…”

 

James keeps looking on. The arena's lights cut out completely, plunging the whole room into darkness for several seconds before the screens light up to display a countdown.

THOMAS VALENTINE WILL BLOW THE
ROOF OFF IN

NOW!

The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that reverberates round the arena, a shot of Thomas in various poses is shown before reverting to the blackness until the next pulse that sounds like a bass drum beat with increasing volume until a final shot of him holding the SCW Title aloft after winning the match at Taking Hold Of The Flame is Shown and remains until two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Darkest Of Kin" by Maylene And The Sons Of Disaster, hits.

“ALL OF YOU, GO ABOUT YOUR DAY, NEVER TRULY LIVING! WALKING SO CLOSE TO DEATH, LETS ME KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO BE ALIVE! IT'S WHERE I FIND MY HIGH. TERROR THIS WORLD HAS NEVER SEEN. LOOK IN MY EYES, SEE WHAT I'VE DONE! ALWAYS ON THE MOVE, HELL COMES ALONG!”

A shot of "Thorn" going for the Swanton from the top of a chamber pod at Under Attack 2009 is shown in slow motion as he misses it and hits nothing but canvas.

"STAND UP, FISTS OUT - I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY!"

A shot now of him hitting the Socially Unacceptable Moonsault stomp from the top rope onto Justin Davis is shown, the impact punctuated by the last word of the verse before a shadowed figure can be seen standing in front of the curtain at the top of the ramp.

"STAND UP, FISTS OUT - THIS IS THE REAL THING!"

As the last word echoes, the lights start to strobe again briefly as the song reverberates throughout the arena now, causing the fans to start cheering.

 

Sharper: “Well I think we have a taker!”

 

Winters: “And someone who knows the Underground Division!”

 

Tommy Valentine walks out from the back and looks down at the ring before looking around the crowd as they cheer him.

 

Sharper: “The hometown boy! From Raleigh!”

 

Tommy Valentine heads down the rampway and to the ring. James just smirks as Tommy walks up the steel steps and enters the ring. He then looks at James as James continues to watch him. Tommy, instead of going to the corner to get a microphone, he asks James for his microphone. James obliges and Tommy takes it and nods.

 

Tommy: “James…First, allow me to just do one thing.”

 

Tommy then turns to the crowd.

 

Tommy: “Damn! It feels good to be home!”

 

The crowd cheers. Tommy smirks as he turns back to James and looks at him.

 

Tommy: “Sorry for that…but if you’re looking for someone who give you a different challenge, I’m always looking for a challenge. And while I may not be done with some people and I may have had my ups and downs in 2014, you know damn well that I can give you the fight of your life, especially with that title on the line.”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Tommy: “So James, I know that you want to get something different. I know that you want a fight. And I know you want a challenge. I want the same. What do you say?”

 

Tommy looks at James and extends the microphone. James takes it and looks at Tommy and smirks, bringing the microphone back up.

 

James: “See you next week then.”

 

James brings the microphone down and James extends his hand. Tommy gladly takes it and they shake hands. James Evans then turns and walks past Tommy and steps through the ropes and drops to the floor. He then starts to walk to the back as Tommy Valentine stands in the ring. His music plays.

 

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine challenges James Evans next week for the Underground Title.”

 

Winters: “It’s been agreed and Tommy better enjoy this. Next time he comes to Raleigh, he may be worse for wear.”

 

Sharper: “We’ll find out next week as right now, Tommy Valentine enjoys this reaction from his hometown fans!”

 

Tommy Valentine stands in the ring and enjoys the cheers from the crowd as James Evans continues to head to the back. Tommy Valentine nods and poses for the crowd as they continue to cheer.

We open up backstage to see Mr. D working on some paperwork as the door opens. Mr. D looks up and Fury walks inside. Mr. D looks at him.

 

Mr. D: “Fury…what can I do for you?”

 

Fury stops and looks at him.

 

Fury: “I can handle them alone…just do that.”

 

Mr. D: “I know. But I have you in the tournament. I may as well see how good you are…and if you are, you’ll get Red Rayne one on one soon enough in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. You’re in that Block for a reason.”

 

Fury just nods.

 

Fury: “I didn’t need the tournament though. If you doubt me, just tell me.”

 

Mr. D: “Consider it giving you an opportunity while we try and figure out what New Eden exactly will do. You take her out in the tournament too…that’s a bonus.”

 

Fury: “Fine…then give me her next.”

 

Mr. D looks at him as Fury turns and leaves the room. Mr. D watches him leave.

“Rescue Me” starts to play. The Breakdown logo comes up and we see a shot of Donovan Kayl and then a shot of Matt Auclair. The crowd cheers before we see a shot of both.

 

Sharper: “Well folks, when we return, big match here on Breakdown. The Cornerstone of Wrestling, Donovan Kayl faces off against Matt Auclair. They go one on one, next!”

 

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up backstage to see David Helms and Regan Street in their locker room. Regan Street just has a bag of ice on the back of her head as she sits on the bench in the room. David Helms stands a few feet in front of her.

 

Helms: “I should’ve been there.”

 

Helms shakes his head.

 

Helms: “She’s coming for me.”

 

Regan: “She got me from behind. The officials were right there…let’s face it though, with how I am right now…let her try it again.”

 

Helms just nods.

 

Regan: “Now if I just get my shot against Syren-“

 

Helms: “You know that’s coming. First Breakdown of the new year.”

 

Regan: “Too long away…”

 

Just then, there a knock at the door and Helms turns as Sienna Swann walks in with B.Real.

 

Sienna: “Oh how nice…so supportive.”

 

Helms: “Sienna…”

 

Sienna: “Wanted to make sure she’s okay. That’s part of your deal right…Plus, always wanted to see who apparently is going to be standing right behind me in the grand scheme of things.”

 

Regan gets up and steps forward. Helms stops her. B.Real then steps forward to protect Sienna.

 

Helms: “Sienna…”

 

Sienna: “Please…relax. Anger is so catty. I guess it runs in your family though. I just hope you realize that any success you get…he’s not going to risk what he has in me. I hope David was quick to realize that when he signed.”

 

Helms just glares at Sienna as Regan tries to get at her.

 

Regan: “How about we see who’s standing in whose way?”

 

Sienna: “I hope next week…you do the smart thing and change with us. Maybe you’ll pick up some tips to help her out.”

 

Regan: “You bitch-“

 

Helms: “Regan-“

 

Sienna: “Nice talk…oh…and David…I’m always up to talk with you.”

 

Sienna giggles a bit and turns and walks off. B.Real then turns and backs up, pointing at both before leaving the room. Regan slowly backs up and grabs her bag of ice and puts it on her head.

 

Regan: “If she comes in here again…I hope you’re okay with telling Silas he’s out one pawn…perfect or not.”

 

Regan sits down as Helms just sighs and glances back at the door and we cut away.

 

Winters: “Damn! Helms getting Sienna even interested in him. Don’t know why, but well-“

 

Sharper: “Stop it.”

 

Winters: “What? I’m just saying, he’s a lucky guy. Has a couple of beautiful women who see so much in him and let’s not forget Silas Mason for seeing something in both!”

 

Sharper: “Please…”

Donovan Kayl vs. Matt Auclair

 

"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.

Can you feel it
See it
Hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it 'cause it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass

Stepping out to the top of the ramp is "The Cornerstone" Donovan Kayl. He steps to the side, facing out to the crowd.

It's so cool
It's so hip
It's alright
It's so groovy
It's outta sight
You can touch it
Smell it
Taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference 'cause it knocks you off your feet

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.[/i]

You want it all but you can't have it

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.

It's cryin'
Bleedin'
Lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it
So you dare it
Then you bare it
And you tear it

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...

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it

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. 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: “Kayl about to have a big challenge and you have to wonder if Kennedy Street, Alex Young or anyone else who’s affiliated with her may be watching.”

 

Winters: “After last week, I wouldn’t be surprised if Knots came out with a chair to take him out.”

 

Sharper: “Either way, Kayl has to be focused. He’s got Auclair and Auclair has a female he may be looking out for, Rachel Foxx.”

 

The distorted tune of Chimaira’s “Pure Hatred” blast out through the speakers at a volume that likely has every non-death metal fan covering their ears. Red lights are pulsing on stage in tune with the song as Matt Auclair storms out onto the stage. He has since stopped wearing the arm sleeve but still wears the black fingerless glove on his right hand, though not by choice. Fans in the front row remain silent while those a safe distance away from him start booing. Auclair just scans over the arena with a death glare, though when the traditional death metal scream opening of the lyrics comes up, Auclair rears back and lets out a primal scream of his own right along with it. As the lyrics, which are appropriate in Matt's mind for his current situation, kick in the brawler begins to storm down the ramp with only pure malicious intent on his mind. Once at ringside he slides in and heads straight to his corner, where he awaits the bell by impatiently pacing back and forth like a caged animal ready to strike.

 

Winters: “He’s ready. He’s always ready. And he’s focused.”

 

Sharper: “And that could be bad for Kayl. Although, we don’t even know if Rachel Foxx is here and we found out that if Rachel Foxx is going after Auclair, security isn’t exactly going to stop her.”

 

Winters: “That tells you everything you need to know about how the boss and SCW are going to deal with parts of this whole situation with New Eden and its offshoots.”

 

Kayl watches Auclair as the bell sounds and Auclair gets his hands up and starts to head towards Kayl. Kayl watches him and Auclair keeps coming towards him. He goes for a hard right. Kayl ducks and spins around. Auclair turns and goes for a back elbow, but Kayl ducks that. Kayl then grabs at the leg and pulls him out and taking out his other leg and then hitting an elbow to his leg. Auclair winces. Kayl gets up and hits another elbow to his thigh. Auclair nails him with a shot and grabs at this head. Kayl rolls away. Auclair grabs at the ropes and starts to get up and Kayl runs over to him and clubs him in the back. He clubs him again and turns him around and chops him. The crowd woos. Auclair winces and Kayl chops him again. More woos. Auclair then grabs him and spins him around into the corner and nails him with a hard shot to the ribs and then another and another and another before piefacing Kayl and pushing him back. Kayl spins out of the corner and falls to a knee as the crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Auclair showing no respect to Donovan Kayl.”

 

Winters: “Not surprising. He made it clear last week. He’ll take out and face anyone who comes at him. Anyone and Kayl counts as that.”

 

Kayl gets up and Auclair jabs him in the jaw. Kayl staggers back and falls into the corner. Auclair lunges towards him and nails Kayl with a forearm before forearming him again. Kayl winces and Auclair grabs him and whips him across the ring. Kayl hits the opposite corner. Auclair walks after Kayl and Kayl steps out and goes for a hard right, but Auclair blocks it and headbutts Kayl, knocking him down. He rolls over and grabs the ropes before getting up. Auclair then grabs him and pushes him into the middle rope before leaning over and raking the eyes, digging his fingers into the eyes of Kayl.

Auclair rakes away and Kayl falls over. Auclair walks around the ring before walking back over to Kayl. Kayl stirs and Auclair pulls him up and then stands him up only to clothesline him in the back of the head, knocking him down.

 

Sharper: “And this onslaught by Auclair, this striking offense we’ve seen just grow in effectiveness over the last year.”

 

Winters: “No matter who he faces, he gives them a reminder of them. Kayl however may be hopeful this ends fast.”

 

Kayl starts to get up and Auclair pulls him up and turns and throws him into the corner. Auclair moves over to him and grabs his forearm against the face of Kayl. He runs it across and then pulls it back before running it across again. He continues as the official counts.

Auclair steps back and glares at the official. He then slowly turns around and Donovan kicks him in the ribs and then again. Auclair rakes the eyes. He then goes to whip Kayl across the ring. Kayl however slides towards the opposite corner, stopping himself. Auclair runs at him and Kayl steps forward and jumps up, nailing Auclair with a jumping calf kick. Auclair hits the mat. He rolls over and gets up and Kayl kicks him in the ribs and snap suplexes him over. He floats over into a pin.

Auclair kicks out. Kayl gets up and Auclair stirs. Kayl stomps him in the back and then again. Auclair grabs at the ropes and starts to get up. Kayl then grabs him and lifts him up and manages to hit a back suplex.

 

Sharper: “And the Cornerstone of Professional Wrestling with a back suplex. A bit of trouble, but he got him up.”

 

Winters: “Auclair’s advantage is evaporating quick. They always wonder if wrestling can outdo brawling and Kayl is hoping so.”

 

Kayl gets up and hits an elbow drop. He gets up and hits another. He then looks down at Auclair before jumping up and hitting a knee drop. He hooks the leg.

Auclair pushes him off. Kayl looks out and then grabs Auclair and starts to lift him up. He turns and goes for a Russian leg sweep, but Auclair elbows him. The crowd boos. He elbows him again and Auclair then elbows him in the jaw. Auclair staggers forward as Kayl staggers back. Kayl steps forward and Auclair kicks him in the ribs. He then hooks him up and goes for a belly to belly suplex and does. He then hooks the leg.

Kayl kicks out.

 

Winters: “Wow! He tried for a pin.”

 

Sharper: “Seems like it. I’m not sure if that’s a sign of Auclair valuing the win or a sign of respect to Kayl.”

 

Auclair then turns and grabs Kayl by the head and forearms him before forearming him again and again. He gets up and Kayl rolls over. Auclair walks around the ring. Kayl gets to his feet and Auclair kicks him in the ribs. He then turns and whips Kayl into the ropes. Kayl bounces off the ropes and Auclair goes to nail him with a hard right, but Kayl slides underneath. He gets up. Auclair stops and turns around and Kayl jumps up and hits a dropkick, knocking Auclair down. Auclair starts to get up and Kayl kicks him in the ribs. He then hits a snap suplex. He holds on however and swivels his hips. He then gets up and starts to get up. He then lifts Auclair up and spikes him with a brainbuster. The crowd ohs. Kayl rolls over in bit of pain and holds his back a bit before getting over to the ropes and crawling to the apron. He then gets up and walks over to the corner. He then climbs up to the top rope.

 

Sharper: “Brainbuster! Auclair down!”

 

Winters: “And Kayl’s going to do more!”

 

Sharper: “Up top. What’s Kayl thinking here?”

 

Kayl then looks down at Auclair and dives off and hits an elbow drop right to the chest. Kayl moves forward and just then “Criticize” starts to play. The crowd boos as Kayl looks up and turns to the entrance way. He glances back at Auclair and then actually goes for the pin.

Auclair kicks out. Kayl gets up and stomps him in the chest and then again and again, causing Auclair to roll to the apron as Kennedy walks out, Carlos leading her throwing rose petals around. BBU steps out next to Kennedy and Ethan Von Aaron is seen as well. Kennedy Street has a microphone in her hand and looks down at Kayl as Kayl turns back to Kennedy as Auclair rolls to the floor. Kayl glances at him.

 

Sharper: “Kayl actually had the wherewithal to go for the pin.”

 

Winters: “And even got him out of the ring…Veteran stuff there. Kennedy out here and we figured this may be a possibility.”

 

Sharper: “And wel-“

 

Before Sharper can continue, Kennedy just starts to talk, causing Sharper to stop.

 

Kennedy: “Donovan…Sorry to interrupt, but since you’ve done it me, I figured I should return the favour.”

 

Kayl just smirks before he drops down to the floor and walks around the ring and runs around and nails Auclair with a running clothesline as he stirs. The crowd roars a bit. (1)

 

Kennedy: “Now, Donovan, I hope you didn’t mind that I left you unconscious in the ring last week. I mean, it’s what I do. Anyone who stands in my way will be left lying. Kinda like how Simon Lyman found himself spent after a wonderful night with me…”

 

Kayl turns to Auclair and stomps him. (2) He then continues to stomp him.

 

Kennedy: “Or how your wife Chloe seemed to enjoy lying with Mika Kozlov!”

 

Kayl then stops and looks up at the stage. Kennedy just smiles. (3)

 

Kennedy: “Oh good…you remember. Yes, it’s true. The man who last week willingly lied saying that since he had his wife Chloe, he wouldn’t want me. Too bad it seems like the feeling wasn’t always mutual.”

 

Kayl then hops onto the apron and enters the ring and looks out at Kennedy. (4)

 

Kennedy: “See, a bit of history. As I said, I’m saving lives, I’m getting what I deserve, but more importantly, I’m telling the truth. Donovan Kayl thinks all is wonderful with his wife, but only a few short years ago, the Cornerstone of Wrestling was not the Cornerstone of Romance and before Mika Kozlov went totally nuts and drinking blood and worshipping Satan….Donovan Kayl’s wife was not just batting for the other team, but she told me full well she was going to leave Donovan.”

 

Kennedy smiles as Kayl just looks stunned. (5)

 

Winters: “Whoa!”

 

Sharper: “What the hell is wrong with her? Donovan Kayl is stunned! Another salacious story just to hurt!”

 

Kennedy: “And Donovan, while Chloe decided that it was actually a smart reason to stick with you…I’m done with you. I don’t care if you brought me into wrestling. You can just be watching when I win the World Championship at the End of the Year Special when all of these people vote me for that shot. While your wife didn’t leave you…I will…and you’ll just have to watch my sexy, flawless ass as World Champion and wonder what could’ve been!”

 

Kayl just continues to be stunned as Auclair has returned to the ring and spins him around and drills him with the Deathblow. The crowd ohs and Kennedy just smiles before giving a brief clap and then turns and returns to the back as Auclair backs up and smirks, looking at Kayl as Kayl is down.

 

Sharper: “Damn it! The Deathblow! Kayl is down! Kayl is out!”

 

Winters: “And that shot, that shot that nearly was banned, took him out!”

 

Sharper: “And Kennedy’s distraction giving him more than ample time to get it cocked and to hit it! She drops that bombshell that Donovan’s wife was going to leave him for Mika Kozlov-“

 

Winters: “She’s cute, but nuts…”

 

Sharper: “I guess before she was with New Eden…but then the Deathblow and Auclair standing over him as the referee checks on him.”

 

The referee moves the arm and lifts it up and checks him before turning and calling for the bell. The crowd boos and Auclair just smiles as his music then starts to play.

 

Sharper: “And Auclair wins thanks to that…”

 

Winters: “Both had some big targets on their back. Kayl’s target was struck. Bullseye. Auclair…he’s safe for now.”

 

Auclair continues to smile as the referee goes to raise his hand. Auclair pulls away and just looks at Kayl as he’s still down. The official turns and then goes to check on him as Auclair goes to the ropes and steps through before dropping down. He then starts to head around the ring and to the rampway before starting to head to the back.

“Rescue Me” starts to play and the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Dark Fantasy and then a shot of The Howells.

 

Sharper: “Well we’re going to try and get some more comments from Kennedy Street or Standing Room Only.  But we still have plenty to come tonight still. A huge main event. The World and US Champions against the World Tag Team Champions.”

 

Winters: “Talk about a huge opportunity for the Howells. They better not screw this up. They can make a huge statement against them.”

 

Sharper: “And Syren and Ravyn Taylor can maybe try and shut the Howells up as Katie Steward and Marcus V. Lopez look on. Jonathan Knots to join me and more Adrenaline Showcase matches still to come here on Breakdown from Raleigh!”

 

The scene then fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

The opening strums of “Rescue Me” by Buckcherry plays as the Breakdown logo flies past the screen before we see a shot of Jake Starr holding the SCW Championship over his head. This is followed by a shot of Thirteen locking in the Last Breath on Christian Savior. We see a shot of Katie Steward posing on the rampway before freezing and flying past the screen. This is followed by a shot of Rachel Foxx nailing Wild Bill with the SCW Underground Championship before smiling as the shot freezes and flies at the screen.

 

“You can't erase this deep inside of me
I know I'm not a sight to see
But baby, I'm alive.”

 

We see Kennedy Street posing before the shot freezes and flies at the screen. A shot of Kelcey Wallace holding up the SCW World Championship is shown before freezing and flying at the screen. A quick shot of Jake Starr hitting the Shooting Five Star Frog Splash, before switching to a shot of Aiken, Rachel Foxx and Tatum McGraw standing together, followed by a shot of Thorn hitting the Griever’s Bane on someone is shown, followed by a shot of CHBK standing in a suit in the ring, all freezing in mid-motion and flying at the screen.

 

“I cherish the love and
I cherish the life that's inside of me
And I know I'm not a sight to see
But baby, I'm alive.”

 

Shots of Lucas Knight and Syren looking at each other, standing across the ring from each other, followed by showing Collin Cole nailing David Helms with the Cole Killer, and followed by a shot of Shaun Cruze hitting the C5 on Greg Cherry are all shown before freezing and flying past the screen. A shot of Devon Kayl at someone is shown before flying past the screen.

 

“Won't you come and rescue me?
Separate myself from me
Maybe I'm too blind to see
Save my life, rescue me.”

 

Several shots of various SCW competitors, new and old, including Gable Winchester, Greg Cherry, Thorn & David Helms, Soopaman Luva, Syren, Regan Street, Ben McCaron, Harmony Fisher, William Mason, Matt Auclair, Merrick Wiseman and others all fly past the screen before ending with the SCW Breakdown logo flying into the screen.                

 

The scene then returns to the inside of the PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina where spotlights circle the arena before pyro shoots out from the entrance way on both sides and around the big screen before coming to a stop. The crowd erupts in cheers as the cameras pan the audience, showing the crowd, cheering and waving their signs, hoping to get onto camera. Spotlights circle the arena. We sweep down to ringside to see Adam Sharper & Jonathan Knots at ringside.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Raleigh, North Carolina for Breakdown. Adam Sharper here, with Jonathan Knots and we still have our huge Tag Team main event tonight. The Tag Champs faces off against the World Champion and US Champion in a non-title match.”

 

Knots: “And that’s going to be huge. Take four champions and put them into the ring. The Howells have a chance to make a statement. Just like Kennedy Street did. Just like she put Donovan Kayl in his place. You don’t screw with the Sexy, Flawless Diva.”

 

Sharper: “We expect to hear more on that situation. We know Silas’ World is still here without Silas. Not just that though, New Eden are here and we now know that thanks to last week, they’re getting no interview time.”

 

Knots: “Well do you blame them? They’re attacking anyone and everyone. Screw them!”

 

Sharper: “True and security still watching them. New Eden almost is happy just to show up and be locked up. And I don’t know what to think there.”

 

Knots: “Because they’re probably plotting. Plus, we know Silk isn’t there. I don’t like that!”

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, as we try and digest what’s taken place in other manners, Jessica Winters is standing by with Kennedy Street. Jessica?”

 

Knots: “Yes!”

We cut backstage to see Jessica Winters standing by with Kennedy Street in the backstage area, near the locker rooms. BBU stands with her, as does Ethan von Aaron and Carlos.

 

Jessica: “Kennedy, you just dropped a serious allegation against Donovan Kayl. How would you even know this?”

 

Kennedy: “Oh Jessica…this is why people can only hope to be like me. I’m the Sexy, Flawless Diva. I know everything. But it also helps when Donovan wasn’t acting like an overbearing father and was proud of me for being me, I was very close to his wife. And frankly, Mika’s a step up, even if she completely insane and probably killing squirrels in the woods right now. See, that’s what Donovan does. He becomes insufferable and he pushes any women away from him. Really, Simon’s perfect for him as a tag team partner.”

 

Jessica: “But-“

 

Kennedy: “No stop…see, I’m moving on from him too. Donovan Kayl can judge me all he wants. I’m still going to be champion before him and I’ll be champion for as long as I want when I get the shot I deserve on New Year’s Eve. The year of Keenie is coming…and Donovan Kayl…I’m leaving you behind.”

 

Kennedy starts to walk off as Jessica tries to get her back.

 

Jessica: “Kennedy, but-“

 

Ethan von Aaron then steps over and wraps his arm around Jessica as Jessica turns to him looking a bit disgusted.

 

Ethan: “You should listen to her. Because remember, she’s going to be the World Champion in under a month. You want to get the scoops right? Play your cards right and maybe you can be right behind Jonathan Knots for who gets the first messages from your new World Champion.”

 

Ethan then turns and walks off as Jessica watches him leave.

 

Knots: “Woo-hoo! I’m first!”

 

Sharper: “That young lady has become so damn manipulative and doesn’t care who she hurts, what dirty laundry she airs.”

 

Knots: “Well, I think the story is that Mika Kozlov wasn’t completely nuts at once and she’s a better catch that Donovan!”

 

Sharper: “Stop it!”

We cut back to ringside as the lights in the arena slowly dim, culminating in a sea of darkness. A male voice is heard over the PA system. His diction is firm, and fierce, as if trying to "rally the troops," or give a "pep talk" to someone, and his message is clear...

Rise up and take the power back,
It's time the fat cats had a heart attack,
You know that their time's coming to an end,
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend!

After he finishes, there is a massive explosion of pyro from the stage. "Uprising" by Muse begins to emanate from the speaker system, and laser beams begin to fire around the arena. As the song reaches the opening verse, two spotlights drop onto the entry way where Jake Starr stands, back to the crowd, head looking down, and his fist pointed straight to the heavens. His arm is tense and shaking. He slowly turns his fist so it's now pointing "backward," and as he lowers it down, bending at the elbow, he spins his body around, and trusts his fist forward, directed straight toward the ring, to a huge roar from the audience. Thoren Holt then walks out and joins Jake Starr.

Along with the thrusting of his arm, Starr begins walking toward the ring with his nephew Thoren Holt. His path is slow and steady, pausing several times to take in to account the fans holding their hands up as a sign they stand behind the Social Misfit cause. As the second chorus kicks in, Jake reaches the apron of the ring.

They will not force us,
They will stop degrading us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious
So come on

As the chorus plays, Jake climbs up onto the apron. He looks in all four directions, including behind him. As the chorus ends, and the "Hey" chants come over the loud speaker, the crowd is illuminated by bright white lights, and with each chant, thrust their fists skyward. Several fans have signs in the shape of the infamous "Misfit Revolution" fist. While this happens, Thoren walks around the ring.

Jake nods, and with one final show of leadership to the "followers" of the Social Misfit cause, he thrusts his fists skyward one last time, which ignites one final explosion of pyro from each of the four ring posts.

He then walks over to the corner.

 

Sharper: “Jake Starr coming out and the world is still talking about it. He took out Silas Mason.”

 

Knots: “He brutalized him. He took him out and injured him!”

 

Sharper: “And Silas signed up for it and Silas’ World lost at Total War.”

 

Knots: “He gave up.”

 

Sharper: “He should learn to eat some crow then.”

 

Starr is handed a microphone and smirks as he walks back to the middle of the ring. He looks around as Holt even applauds a bit. Starr continues to smile as his music fades out.

 

Starr: “Well it seems like I’ve managed to pull a thorn out of my side and in the process make the entire world happy with a bit of an early Christmas present!”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Starr: “Silas….how ya doin? I hope you’re not in too much pain, coughing and trying to count all of your teeth and broken ribs.”

 

The crowd cheers some more as Starr paces the ring a bit.

 

Starr: “Now, I know that the sheep in Silas’ World are probably stewing in the back, gritting their teeth and planning to kick my ass, but allow me to say something damn clear. I am done with you idiots and I only hope that you look at the broken down ass of Silas Mason and rethink coming after the Only Social Misfit Remaining. Because if you do…I will put this foot up your ass. Thoren will probably find Chairee to give you a steel enema and then you will realize you don’t SCREW with us!”

 

Jake Starr looks around as the crowd cheers some more.

 

Sharper: “He’s fired up.”

 

Knots: “Yeah…after brutalizing a man!”

 

Starr: “But the question now is…what’s next? I mean I managed to take the one thorn in my side who tried to end my career, derail my hopes to get the World Title and just straight up piss me and my family off…My schedules just damn free now!”

 

Starr pauses for a moment and smirks.

 

Starr: “I mean, I can’t come out here and air dirty laundry and show off my hot bod in a thong-“

 

Thoren just stops him and turns away, feigning like he needs to vomit.

 

Starr: “What?”

 

Thoren shakes his head no.

 

Starr: “Oh…damn…Well, you take care of that. I can’t do that apparently and Thoren just proved that. Don’t need to ruin the show with his blowing chunks. But that’s not an option. I can’t even come out here and talk about voting for me for the End of the Year Title shot because I’ve already had a one on one shot and I can’t be voted for. Maybe I can talk about wanting attention and kick Autumn Valentine in the head. Why not? I can see if I can beat Katie Steward to winning EVERY title in SCW and challenge for the Women’s Title.”

 

Thoren shakes his head. Starr looks around as the crowd cheers a bit.

 

Knots: “I hate this guy so much.”

 

Starr looks around.

 

Starr: “Maybe Autumn can give me that shot. But the fact is that my schedule is a bit clear and that means that I can get back to focusing on what I want…and that means, my eyes are directly on the World Champion. Hi Syren!”

 

The crowd cheers a bit before being interrupted by “The Night” by Disturbed. The crowd boos as Starr turns and we see William Mason walk out from the back in his tights. Cameron Chase walks out with him and Mason has a microphone in his hand. He continues on his way to the ring, speaking into it, directed at Jake Starr.

 

Mason: “Jake…I think I speak for anyone who gives a damn…shut up…and leave the ring.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Starr: “But I don’t wanna!”

 

Mason: “There are more important things in this company, in this sport, than you. So while you try to come up with your Christmas list of things you want, when you only deserve coal, please leave the ring because I have to explain to Gable Winchester one more time why I’m better than him and explain to SCW why I’m going to be the Adrenaline Champion in due time.”

 

Starr just looks at Mason as he reaches the ring and steps up onto the apron. Cameron walks up the steel steps and enters into the ring as Mason does too. He then walks up to Jake Starr. Jake Starr just smirks as he looks at William Mason.

 

Mason: “We have some wrestling to do now.”

 

Starr just looks at Mason and glances back to Holt. Starr turns back and mockingly salutes Mason.

 

Starr: “Good luck against Gable, Billy. Hope your mouth doesn’t get you in trouble.”

 

Starr then turns and smirks as he exits the ring. Holt looks at Mason and turns and exits the ring before glancing at Cameron. He then leans over and extends his hand to Cameron. William turns and steps towards him. Holt backs up and puts his hands up to calm him down. He then exits the ring before Starr laughs and Starr and Holt start to walk to the back. William Mason turns and glares at them before Cameron Chase walks over to Mason and calms him down.

 

Sharper: “William Mason wants to get going. He faces off against Gable Winchester, next here on Breakdown.”

 

Knots: “And he shut up Jake Starr and that creep Holt!”

 

Sharper: “Mason and Winchester in a preview of the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament! Next!”

 

Starr and Holt continue to the back as we cut away.

We then cut to a shot backstage to see Stacy Kissinger talking to an official backstage.

 

Stacy: “I can believe that Kennedy Street just did that to Donovan Kayl. More drama…I can’t believe it. It’s just all she seems to do. So many…why not just go to the ring and get it done out there?”

 

???: “Oh I know. She’s just too dramatic for me. That’s why I need someone who is more than that.”

 

Stacy looks confused as she turns and we see Derek Adonis who had been leering at Stacy before looking up at her.

 

Stacy: “Oh…you?”

 

Adonis: “Hey! I just happened to pay you a compliment. People with a lot of drama aren’t attractive. Nuh-uh. Especially when they’re only an eight. I mean really. I need someone with a bit more to her, but up here…”

 

Adonis then points to his head.

 

Adonis: “And down there!”

 

Adonis then points to Stacy’s ass.

 

Stacy: “Uh…”

 

Adonis: “Come on! We can talk more about this and you can have a wonderful evening with Man Mountain! KABLAM!”

 

Stacy: “No…just no…”

 

Stacy just turns and walks off. Adonis watches her leave.

 

Adonis: “Playing hard to get…just look at that…it’s a thing of beauty!”

 

Adonis turns to the ring crew member who just looks at Adonis incredulous as Adonis clearly is checking Stacy out as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and we see the End of the Year Special logo come up on the big screen as “Rescue Me” plays in the background.

 

Sharper: “Folks, it’s that time of the year again. Starting right now, you can go onto supremecw.com and determine who you would like to see get their very first one on one World Championship shot at the 2014 End of the Year Special.”

 

Knots: “You better all vote Keenie! EVERYONE loves Keenie!”

 

Sharper: “A lot of great competitors and a lot of people who are wondering who would have the fans support. Vote for someone you would love to face Syren or just someone you’re a fan of. And we’ll reveal the winner at Supreme Saturday: Shot of Adrenaline on December 13th. Voting closes, December 12th at midnight Eastern Standard Time!”

 

The logo remains on the screen for a moment before we then cut to show a shot of Katie Steward and Marcus V. Lopez celebrating at Total War.

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, last week, Katie Steward and Marcus V. Lopez were noted for their absence. They are the new number one contenders to the SCW World Tag Team Championship. They defeated the Howells in a non-title match, with that being the stipulation, at Total War. That was the first time they teamed together, just the two of them and they’ve decided to do some training together to work on their chemistry.”

 

Knots: “Oh God…”

 

Sharper: “And next week, we will check in on their training to see how Katie Steward and Marcus V. Lopez are doing in their preparations for their impending World Tag Team Championship opportunity. A date has not been set, but we know it will be soon. We’ll hear from them, next week, here on Breakdown.”

The image remains on the screen for a moment before we cut back to the ring to see William Mason in the ring. We also notice Jake Starr now back at ringside, standing by the barricade.

 

Knots: “What the hell is he doing back out here? I thought he left.”

 

Sharper: “Looks like he left and rethought about it and wanted to watch this match!”

 

William Mason vs. Gable Winchester

 

A deep voice booms around the arena as the crowds are hushed, waiting for what would happen next.

“The Book Of Winchester, Page Three, Chapter Seven, Verse Nine…There was a dark and foreboding federation…nothing but criminals and geriatrics running riot…the place called out for a hero…a saviour that wasn’t of the Christian variety…that could bring a new sense of awesomeness to it’s very core…and rock the place to its foundations like never before…they found that man”

There is silence before various words show on the video screen.

DRAGONSLAYING

FOUNDATION LAYING

ALCOHOL SWILLING

LEGEND THRILLING

"Motherf**ker Of The Year" By Motley Crue hits in the arena as a microphone now appears on the video screen as Gable's voice can be heard echoing throughout the arena

"GABLE-ITES! THIS IS FOR YOU!"

This immediately sets the crowds off with cheers aimed toward the man that steps out onto the top of the ramp with "The Book Of Winchester" tucked securely under his arm as he walks forward and Percival Devlin can be seen behind him walking as Gable then stops and smirks at the gathered fans before holding the book aloft as blue fireworks shoot up from both sides of the stage and the crowds give him a wild reception. Shrugging and then smiling, Gable turns to Percival and gives him the book to carry before strolling down to the ring, acknowledging as many fans as he can before he makes his way to the ring with his protege in tow albeit with nowhere near as much enthusiasm as Gable

EVERY TIME I TURN MY HEAD,
I CAN HEAR EVERYTHING THAT'S SAID
I KNOW THEY WISH I'D GO AWAY!

HERE I AAAAAAM AGAIN,
HEY NOW, HEY NOW,
I'M THE MOTHERF**KER OF THE YEAR!

The words on the screen keep on repeating themselves as Gable reaches the ring and slides in, standing on the ropes and holding his hand up in a tight fist as the crowds whistle and cheer while Jack looks on from ringside, doing as he has been told. Gable then awaits his opponent to come to the ring.

Sharper: “Gable looking primed and ready for this, William Mason however is talking to the official pointing out Jake Starr who still is at ringside.”

Knots: “He’s got no business being out here now; William only wanted him to shut up and get out of his ring, he’s doing it out of spite of Mason.”

The official points at Jake asking him to leave but Starr holds up his hands innocently and says he is just watching as a “fan”. This gets a chuckle from a few fans at ringside as he sits on the barricade, one fan patting him on the back. William sneers at Jake before quickly turning on his heels and takes Gable by surprise with a forearm shot into the corner. The bell officially sounds now and this match is on the way with Gable on the defensive! Winchester in the seated position now as Mason stomps away while holding the top rope. The referee demands William step out of the corner and allow Gable room to his feet, but William ignores him. The referee is quick to start counting, wasting no time to instil his presence in this match while Cameron Chase shouts at Gable.

Mason backs off still seething as he looks out to the ringside area where Jake sits on the barrier still with his arms folded, a yawn present... Upon reaching the opposite corner, William turns and charges at the still seated Gable looking to drive a knee into his face. Gable however had it scouted and rolls over the bottom rope to the apron, Mason catching nothing but turnbuckle. The crowd roars as Gable gets to his feet and connects with a left hand sending William stumbling back as he holds his ribs. Gable begins to scale the side of the corner but William is once more on the offensive.

Sharper: “Gable looking for something big early on, we all know the man can fly.”

Knots: “Mason may have other ideas.”

Mason staggers back once again with Gable now on the top rope, his eyes locked on William Mason as he leaps off for a cross body which CONNECTS! Gable hooks a leg and covers. Cameron holding her head with a hint of concern.

1... KICK OUT BY MASON!



That concern isn’t needed however as Gable rolls to his knees and then rises to his feet as William does the same holding his chest, the two lock up but William drops a knee into the gut of Gable, following up with a right hand and one more before whipping him to the ropes! Gable however leaps onto the second rope and springs back, twisting for another cross body, but William scouts it and ducks under. Gable lands but manages to roll through to his feet but he isn’t on them for long as William hits the ropes and catches Gable with an Busaiku Knee Kick to the temple!

Knots: “THE MEDIOCRITE KILLER!!”

Sharper: “Right out of nowhere, Gable looks out of it!”

Gable is prone on the canvas having taken a vicious shot to the temple by Mason’s knee, the crowd buzz as Cameron Chase cheers on her husband as he rolls over onto Gable and hooks a leg of his own.

1...

2... KICK OUT BY GABLE!

The crowd roars as William sneers, Starr on the outside slaps the mat on the other side almost mockingly trying to rally William. Mason looks at the official and points at Jake once again who holds up his hands, telling he’s here to support him as they’re BEST friends.

Knots: “Did he just say they’re Best Friends?!”

Sharper: “That they did...”

Knots: “See?! He shouldn’t be out here, he’s a distraction!”

Sharper: “Maybe so, but William is in firm control and if anything his presence right now is motivating him whether that’s the intention or not...”

Mason gets back to his feet. He looks less than happy. He grabs Winchester by the hair and starts pulling him back to his feet. He throws Winchester back in to the corner before following up with a shoulder to the midsection and then a right hand straight to the side of the head. Gable drops to a knee. Mason goes to follow up. He looks like he’s about to climb up for a series of punches perhaps but Gable is able to step out of the corner and throw Mason in to it. Winchester unloads with a few right hands in the corner but as he goes for a last big one Mason catches him. Mason then steps forward and drops back, driving Gable’s face in to the middle turnbuckle! Winchester grabs his head in pain and rolls under the ropes.

Sharper: “Mason with another shot to the head there using the turnbuckle, it’s safe to say William is targeting him there.”

Knots: “I know I dog Mason a lot on twitter, hell I’m not the only one who has made his life hell but you can’t take away his ability in that ring. He just needs to keep focused, which is his biggest problem.”

Sharper: “I couldn’t agree more, he is one hell of a talent on this roster, and he’s taken on some of the best head to head and given them all a run for their money.”

The referee checks on Winchester. Mason rushes over to the corner however and begins to stomp away on a vulnerable Winchester. The referee has to force himself between the two men to separate Mason off of him. He pushes Mason out of the corner before checking on Winchester. He seems to ask Gable if he wants to quit, but Gable shakes his head and begins to slowly get back to his feet.

Sharper: “But it’s moments like that which make people question him as well.”

Knots: “With New Eden running around, you have to do whatever it takes these days in SCW. You never know if you’re going to be the next target.”

The fans cheer, but Mason rushes to the corner again and knees Mason in the head. He then pulls him out of the corner with a snap mare before locking in a sleeper hold and trying to wear Winchester down. Gable begins to show signs of succumbing to the sleeper hold by dropping to one knee. Cameron applauds her husband as Jake now starts to slap the mat in aid of Gable.

Knots: “There we go thats the true colors now.”

William looks and sees Jake and says something to him which gets a laugh from Jake as he begins to mock being sad. Back in the ring Gable is looking more and more like he’s about to pass out as the official checks. He taps the wrist to see his condition and raises Gables arm once...

Sharper: “The Man of Win could very well lose right now with this sleeper locked in tight.”

Knots: “It’s over, he’s out like a light!”

The official raises his arm again as the fans roar trying to get behind Gable, but the arm drops to his side as Mason tells the official to hurry up and raise it again. The arena now is getting louder and louder as Jake now is yelling at Gable to wake up as well. The official lifts the arm up and it drops only to half way however before stopping!

Sharper: “No he’s NOT!”

Gable begins to rally. He starts pushing to his feet. He begins to elbow Mason in the gut to break free. The fans cheer, but Mason cuts him off with a shot to the back that drops Gable back down to a knee. The Man of Win struggles and Mason grabs him from behind. Mason looks to lift him up for a back drop suplex but Winchester floats through and lands on his feet. Mason spins and attempts a clothesline but Gable ducks that. Mason staggers in to the ropes, bouncing off of them and attempting again to hit the faster Gable Winchester who’s able to get his foot up and drop Mason with a kick.

Knots: “NO!”

Sharper: “Yes! Gables not out yet.”

The fans cheer. Mason however is instantly back to his feet. Gable drops him with a clothesline. Mason gets up again, a little slower this time, and Gable drops him with a dropkick. The fans cheer again as Gable begins to fire up. Mason gets up and Gable runs the ropes but Mason ducks the clothesline attempt and knees Gable in the gut. Winchester doubles over and Mason grabs him by the hair and throws him into the corner, the official quickly reprimands Mason with the hair pulling but again Mason shows no signs of caring now, all he wants to do is end this match.

Knots: “Masons had enough, Jakes presence taking its toll.”

Mason backs in to the corner. He runs across the ring and nails a huge splash in the corner. Winchester drops to a knee. Mason laughs and backs in to the corner a second time as Winchester struggles to recover. He charges across the ring again but Winchester is able to move out of the way and Mason connects with the turnbuckles. Gable then gets his foot up, kicking Mason in the head and knocking him down. Gable ducks between the ropes once again for his match while the fans cheer. Mason gets back to his feet andGable springs off the top rope and catches him with a huge Tornado DDT. The fans go wild and Gable rolls in to the cover.

1...

2... KICK OUT BY MASON!

Sharper: “Mason just making it out of that, this match continues.”

Knots: “That was close, I thought that may be it.”

Mason gets back to his feet holding his head. Gable once again gets the fans fired up. He charges at Mason but Mason spins and nails him with a spinning back kick to the gut. Winchester doubles over in pain. Mason then drives a knee in to his head, knocking Gable back, before drilling him again in the gut the same as he did before.

Sharper: “This is just turning into a knock out slugfest now.”

Knots: “No love lost here, Masons looking to break the man of win.”

Mason mouths something to himself while he grabs Gable and pops the hips, throwing him over with an exploder style suplex. Gable bounces off the mat viciously. Mason then grabs Gable and throws him between the middle rope, holding on to the head. It looks like William is about to hit a rope hung DDT on Gable but Winchester is able to pull his feet in and get back to his feet. He pushes Mason off in to the ropes but collapses to a knee. Mason recovers and comes at him to grab him again when out of nowhere Gable drills him with a Superman punch. The fans cheer. Gable drops back down to his knees though as Mason rolls to the ropes.

Sharper: “HUGE SUPERMAN PUNCH THERE.”

Knots: “A last ditch effort by Gable, Mason is still in this thing.”

The crowd rallies behind Gable once more as he gets to his feet slowly, Mason slowly starts to get to his as well as he holds his face. The two lock eyes on one another and slowly start to circle the other now as tension continues to rise between these two superstars. Mason is the one who lunges first for the grapple, but gable with a rear waist lock rolls back looking for a sneaky pin...

1... KICK OUT BY MASON!

Gable rolls to his feet as Mason springs to his, the two locking up again but Mason connects with a European uppercut. He hits another before sending Gable to the ropes and connecting with a drop kick of his own which is picture perfect. Gable stays down, Mason slides across the ring and covers.

1... KICK OUT BY GABLE!

Sharper: “Close falls by both men, neither letting up.”

Cameron screams something but Mason pays no heed to it as he grabs Gable by the hair and pulls him to his feet, but keeps him doubled over as he connects with an elbow to the back of Winchesters skull. He hits once more, and then another before the official demands he lets go of the hair which Mason does. Gable attempts to stand up but he gets a swift kick to the gut doubling him over once again and Mason sprints to the ropes and comes back on the return.

Knots: “William back in control of thins.”

Sharper: “Or is he?!”

Just as Mason hits the ropes looking for a running knee lift, Gable turns and looks to hit a flapjack on William Mason. However Mason has other ideas and looks to turn it into a sunset flip... BUT Gable keeps hold of Masons legs over his shoulders and quickly drops to his knees!

Knots: “NO!!!!”

Sharper: “FAME FADER! GABLE HIT THE FAME FADER OUT OF NOWHERE!!”

The crowd erupts as Cameron screams blue murder now as Gable lays on top of an unconscious William Mason for the cover...

1...

2...

3!!!

The crowd explodes as Gable quickly rolls off Mason and to the outside, he stumbles into the aisle as "Motherf**ker Of The Year" By Motley Crue hits over the P. A System. We see Jake Starr begin to laugh while he walks around the ring now and approach Gable before raising his arm in the air, while in the ring Cameron checks on her husband...

Sharper: “What a victory, a hard fought victory by Gable tonight. He heads in to the Shot at Adrenaline tournament with momentum on his side. He will be one to watch for sure.”

Knots: “Winchester will, but I don’t fancy Collin Coles chances, William looked good tonight but it just wasn’t good enough.

We open up to see Simon Lyman and Donovan Kayl talking in the Standing Room Only locker room.

 

Lyman: “Look man…I’m sorry…you know how she’s gotten.”

 

Kayl: “I know. I’ve been trying to get her to stop…but that…that’s…”

 

Lyman: “Do you know if it’s true?”

 

Kayl: “I don’t know. You know the thing she had with Mika…”

 

Lyman just sighs as Marisa Condolesa comes into the room.

 

Condolesa: “Donovan…can I get a comment?”

 

Simon: “Marisa…not now-“

 

Kayl: “Yeah…”

 

Kayl stands up and walks over to Condolesa.

 

Kayl: “You know…I used to stand up for Kennedy. I saw what she was doing with Alex Young or Jonathan Knots or the stuff with Sienna Swann at the bikini contests and strip clubs…and I thought she was just desperate for attention. Even what she did with Simon…anyone who knows anything about that man, knows the integrity he has. She’s already destroyed one marriage and now she wants to just hurt another…and all because Kennedy can’t handle the truth.”

 

Kayl pauses for a moment.

 

Kayl: “What she said about my wife…and Mika…yeah, it’s true. They were an item at one point when Mika Kozlov was a bit more sane. Anything beyond that I don’t know. But what I do know is that Kennedy Street needs a reality check and an attitude adjustment. And maybe I’m going to have to make sure she gets it.”

 

Kayl shakes his head as Condolesa nods.

 

Condolesa: “Thank you Donovan.”

 

Simon pats his back as Kayl takes a deep breath and the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We return to Breakdown to see William Mason clearly unhappy as he storms through the backstage area. Cameron Chase follows him and both say nothing as the crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. William Mason heading back to his locker room, less than pleased with his loss.”

 

Knots: “Do you blame him? This is a man who claims to be a future World Champion and Jake Starr screwed that up.”

 

Mason and Chase continue down the hallway before Mason goes to his locker room and opens the door and steps inside. Cameron enters in after him and Mason then stops.

 

Mason: “What the hell?”

 

Mason looks around before turning and grabbing something in front of him. It appears to be a series of papers.

 

Chase: “What’s that?”

 

Mason goes through them before turning and the camera gets a shot of an SCW logo and a notarization on the papers.

 

Mason: “This is Skullkeepers’ Trios Tournament shot…he’s used it to face me at the End of the Year Special in an Ambulance match for a US Title shot…

 

Chase: “What?”

 

Mason: “The hell…”

 

Mason throws it down.

 

Chase: “Is it official?”

 

Mason: “Damn notarization is on it…”

 

Chase: “You’ve got the tournament!”

 

Mason: “I know I do!”

 

Mason turns and sits down. We then cut back to ringside.

 

Knots: “Wait? What?”

 

Sharper: “Did I hear that right? Skullkeeper?”

 

Knots: “He’s using his Trios Tournament shot…he’s around? We haven’t seen him since May?!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know, but he says it’s being used for contendership match at End of the Year Special for the US title….in an Ambulance match?!”

 

Knots: “But why Mason?”

 

Sharper: “He’s making enemies everywhere!”

Merrick Wiseman vs. Thomas Watson

 

Phillips: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first...fighting out San Dimas, California by way of Manchester, England. He is the former SCW Adrenaline Champion...."The Paragon Of Pure"....THOMASSSSS WAAAAATSON!"

The arena lights cut completely as a white spot light begins to circle the audience. A long, drawn out wolf's howl echoes around the arena as words then scrawl across the Jumbotron

I BRING SUFFERING

I BRING AGONY

I BRING MISERY

I BRING PURITY!

A video plays on the screen that looks like amateur camcorder footage, showing someone running down a long corridor, heavy breathing can be heard as the person stops in front of a door with "Thomas Watson, Simcoe". The person pushes the door open and lets out a cry of shock as they say a ragged hole where the window was, and the camcorder pans down to see a crumpled up Strait Jacket on the floor. The screen now goes black and then “Asylum” hits in the arena as the lights go out for a few seconds. As soon as the vocals kick in, three spotlights start scanning around the arena before focussing on what can now be seen to be the top of the ramp. A figure emerge from the back, wearing a sleeveless dark blue trench-coat. The spotlights can now be seen to illuminate Thomas Watson. He stands looking out at the masses, an arrogant smirk on his face. As soon as the song hit’s the chorus, Thomas starts to walk down to the ring, he gazes out with mild interest at the crowds who by this point are booing him. Just to aggravate the crowds and get cheap heat, he holds out his hand to members of the audience as if to slap palms but then moves it back and sneers as he continues to the ring.

Watson continues to showboat his way down the walkway to the disdain of the crowds, revelling in their reaction to him before sliding into the ring. Watson then jumps onto the nearest turnbuckle, hitting his chest with his closed fist and gesturing for the crowds to cheer him, to which they do the opposite as he smirks at the reaction he has incited. After going to the opposite turnbuckle and playing to the crowds distaste for him, he stands in the middle of the ring waiting for his opponent.

Sharper: "This is a huge match up that's about to be under way as we have a little preview of what we might see two Saturdays from tonight when the SCW kicks off its first ever SCW Shot Of Adrenaline tournament! Eight individuals will duke it out week after week starting on Supreme Saturday to earn points to qualify for the next round!"

Knots: "And call Thomas Watson the luckiest man on earth because he's gets the first shot at the champion in this tournament! Poor Red Rayne is gonna' have to defend her title every single night!"

Sharper: "Then again Knots, it could be a never ending cycle! If she loses the belt whoever gets it will then have the target on their back and have to defend it! It's madness!"

Phillips: "And introducing his opponent! Fighting out of Sanctuary, he is a former SCW United States Champion! He is....MERRRICKKK WISEMANNNN!"


'Justice... Will Be Done’.

The lone riffs of a single guitar echo the familiar chords that herald the entrance of SCW`s peacekeeper before we hear a voice begin that fateful entrance.

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home

From the curtain emerges Merrick Wiseman. His head down, his long coat waving a little, the camera closing in for a second on the light playing on his silver Texas Ranger badge, and his hands tracing along his guns.

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

The crowd sings along the chorus as Merrick slowly raises his head, showing his masked face. He suddenly draws one of his pistols and fires into the air and at the ring apron down the ramp as the crowd goes nuts.

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think

As he walks down the ramp, Wiseman keeps his eyes focused on the ring and for any signs of trouble. Meanwhile, he reaches into his belt, taking out bullet after bullet and reloading his gun. Just about when he is done, he has reached the ring and loads the barrel.

Now I walk these streets, this six string in my hand
Still playin' for keeps, cause I might not make it back,
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces (seen an awful lot of faces)

Wiseman pulls back the hammer and suddenly crouches down and pulls up the ring apron, pointing his gun inside.

And I’ve rocked them all!

Standing up, he twirls his gun and puts it back in the holster. He walks up the stairs, slowly taking off his gun belt, which he leaves draped over the back of the turnbuckle. He takes off his coat, placing it on the metal pole. He gets into the ring and raises his hands for the referee to make sure he isn’t carrying anymore bullets or guns. The ref clears him and he takes off his hat slowly for the audience before tossing it cleanly on the pole.

I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted (wanted) dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive

Merrick leans on the ropes staring at what awaits him in the ring.

I still drive, dead or alive.....

Knots: "And this freaking guy doesn't even want to be in the tournament! I swear for somebody who tries to uphold the law he sure does complain a lot. Like seriously, you know how many wrestlers worldwide would kill for this?!"

Sharper: "He does have his code but you have to respect the man for knowing what he wants! He just wants to get better and get another shot at Rayvn Taylor! What better way to hone your skills in a tournament like this! Either way he wins!"

Knots: "Everybody got bored of Rayvn kicking his ass years ago...get over it!"

Both men stare each other down from across the ring as the bell ring and the match is set to begin!

DING DING DING!

As soon as it rings both men come rushing out of their respected corners and start brawling! They start trading right hands back and forth as the crowd erupts!

Sharper: "Both men come out firing right out the gate!"

Knots: "Well that escalated quickly!"

Both men continue trading right hands until Watson finally decided to duck under one of Wiseman's before side kicking him right in the back of the knee which causes Merrick to fall forward on his knees as the crowd boos. Watson smirks at the crowd before kicking Wiseman in the back of the knee once again as he tries to stand back up which draws more heat from the crowd. Wiseman holds the back of his knee shouting in a pain as he goes to stand back up only for Wiseman to kick him again but this time he takes Wiseman's whole leg out from under him as he flies down to canvas on his back!

Sharper: "This is just sickening! Barely even two minutes in and Watson can't refrain from these cheap tactics!"

Knots: "Cheap?! Adam this is pure rastlin' at its finest! Cripple that wannabe police! Do it for the people of Ferguson!"

Sharper: "KNOTS!"

Knots: "What? Too soon?"

Wiseman holds his leg in pain on the ground as Watson stomps him right in the face. The crowd continues to show their lack of appreciation as Watson smirks and taunts Wiseman by grabbing the back of his own leg as he fake limps around. He smirks again as the crowd boo's and Wiseman slowly starts to make his way back to his feet. Watson notices and doesn't waste a moment as he proceeds to run off the ropes and leap through the air hitting Wiseman with a hard discus clothesline which almost damn near makes Wiseman do a backfill! The crowd boos as Watson rolls him and drive his forearm into his face while making a quick cover.

1!

2!

Wiseman kicks out immediately after two.

Knots: "Watson is definitely earning that title shot in two weeks here tonight! Never a dull moment watching Wiseman get spanked!"

Sharper: "Yeah, because everybody is just sooooo excited to see this cheapskate get another Adrenaline title shot!"

Thomas drags Merrick back to his feet before grabbing him by the arm and throwing him off the ropes before bending over to deliver a backdrop but Merrick stops in his tracks just in time to Watson with a huge boot right to the face! The crowd cheers as Watson's head flies up as he holds his jaw looking pretty missed off. He immediately answers back with a lounging right hand that Wiseman ducks before kicking Watson in the gut and dropping him down hard on his head with a quick snap ddt! The crowd roars as Watson's head bounces off the canvas before Wiseman drops down and hooks the leg for a pin!

1!

2!

And Watson kicks out right after the two!

Sharper: "Huge snap ddt turns the tide for Wiseman!"

Knots: "Not enough for the pin though and that's all that counts!"

Both men scramble back to their feet but Wiseman gets there first and drills Watson with a stiff jab to jaw and another! He then steps back before stepping in with a hard right hand to the jaw of Watson that takes him right off his feet! Watson tries to quickly get back to his feet but is met by Wiseman who is there to use his momentum as he turns around to lift him up and drop him with a big spinebuster as the crowd roars! He drops down and again tries to hook the leg for the pin!

1!

2!

And again Watson kicks out after the two as the crowd oh's. Merrimack doesn't get discouraged though as he scrambles back to his feet and a stirring Watson back to his feet before grabbing his arm and tossing him towards the corner. Wiseman then sprints all out into the same corner and leaps into the air clotheslining Watson into the corner as the crowd roars! Wiseman then grabs Watson in a side headlock before running him out of the corner and dropping him on his face with with a bulldog! He then rolls over on top of Watson in the mount before unleashing a hellish assault of seated punches! The crowd roars as the ref forces Wiseman off!

Sharper: "Wiseman is punishing Watson right now! They had some heated words for each other earlier in the week and this is quickly becoming violent!"

Knots: "Come on ref get him off faster!"

Wiseman then quickly pulls Watson back up to his feet before again throwing him into the corner with an Irish whip. Wiseman walks into the corner and begins to lift Watson up to the top rope!

Knots: "OH my god what's he doing! Ref get him down!"

Wiseman then begins to climb up onto the top rope with him and positions him onto the top rope for a superplex! The crowd roars as Wiseman begins to hoist Watson into the air but suddenly begins to lose control as Watson wiggles free and grabs the back of Wisemans head and turns it into a front flip neckbreaker in mid air! The crowd oh's as both men crash hard into the canvas!

 

Sharper: “What a counter! A huge neckbreaker and Thomas Watson may have Merrick Wiseman where he wants.”

 

Knots: “And he’s beaten him with Misery before. He may make justice tap out tonight!”

 

Thomas stirs and rolls over. He watches Wiseman as he rolls over to his stomach. Thomas then comes over and stomps him in the back before stomping him again. Wiseman grimaces and Thomas grabs his arm as he does and goes to hook him up in the Misery. The crowd roars, but Merrick blocks it and manages to get up to his knees. Thomas flips forward to go for the hold, but Merrick rolls with him and into a pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Thomas kicks out and both get up. Thomas goes for a clothesline, but Merrick Wiseman ducks and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and jumps up and nails him with a Superman punch. The crowd ohs as Thomas turns and nearly falls over, but pushes off with his hands to stay upright. He however turns only for Merrick to gutwrench him up and turn before planting him with a Sideswipe Gavel. He then steps forward and stacks up Watson.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Sideswipe Gavel wins it for Wiseman! And Wiseman beats the former Adrenaline Champion and arguably a favourite in the Shot of Adrenaline tournament.”

 

Knots: “I don’t believe it. He had him! He had him down for the Misery.”

 

Sharper: “Wiseman had it scouted this time…now they won’t meet in the tournament, unless they make it to the end. But if they do...some added motivation to win! They each hold a win over the other.”

 

Merrick Wiseman has his arm raised as he gets up. He nods and walks around the ring. Thomas Watson rolls over, holding his back as Wiseman turns and exits to the floor. He then starts to make his way to the back.

Suddenly, we cut backstage as we see a grainy image of Aiken and Red Rayne. Rayne just looks forward.

 

Sharper: “Oh my God…”

 

Aiken: “You didn’t think you’d keep us quiet…”

 

Aiken just smiles as his smile being the most clear thing of the picture at this point.

 

Aiken: “So many people worried about us. Interesting for a group that people are celebrating its demise…”

 

Aiken chuckles a bit.

 

Aiken: “We are far from dead and sending some individual with a microphone won’t stop us from getting our message out. Because we will be at every show…and we will make our presence felt one way or another. Total War…that was just a night. A night where SCW finally could breathe…they shouldn’t anymore.”

 

Mika is then heard as she spins the camera around and looks into the camera.

 

Mika: “Everyone’s talking about me too. I can still taste her….hehehehe!”

 

Aiken: “Mikalai…”

 

Mika turns the camera back.

 

Mika: “Sorry!”

 

Aiken: “Red…how about you tell everyone what the upcoming tournament and clear method to end your reign means to you…”

 

Red then steps forward and smiles.

 

Red: “A lot of blood…I hope SCW enjoys its Adrenaline Division destroyed by my hands-“

 

Just then, the image abruptly cuts off as we then see the SCW logo before the Breakdown logo and then we cut to commercials.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and we see Thomas Watson walking down the hallway, being met by Dawn Lohan. Thomas clearly isn’t happy.

 

Watson: “Lucky lil bastard!”

 

Dawn: “Don’t worry about it. Even justice has to get lucky. Seriously…the amount he spews, he’s like Selena. At some point, you just want him to shut up and get his ass kicked.”

 

Watson: “Funny how both of us aren’t even in her block.”

 

Dawn: “Probably ran to Mr. D and demanded it. Especially since she just runs off any time I come out and call her out.”

 

Selena then walks up to them as Dawn and Watson stop. Watson just smirks as Dawn smiles.

 

Dawn: “Oh…this is rich.”

 

Selena: “I hope that you’re enjoying all of this Dawn is right about everything righteousness.

 

Dawn: “What am I wrong about? You left me hanging before…you didn’t care about me. And now, you’re just hoping that everyone sees you as a hero so you can spew your Winter is Coming crap.”

 

Selena shakes her head.

 

Selena: “And it just shows you never knew anything about me. But Dawn…I figured I owe you one thing.”

 

Dawn: “What’s that? Getting on your knees and thanking me for everything you have. That ship sailed.”

 

Selena: “No…I wanted to wish you luck. Because if you really want to face me that bad…I’ll see you in the finals of the Tournament. And both of you can realize I didn’t need you for a damn thing Dawn.”

 

Selena backs up a few yards before turning around and storming off. Dawn just glares at her as Watson just rolls his eyes at her and we cut to ringside.

Sharper: “Another tense meeting between the former Tag Team Champions.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and she keeps running still.”

 

Sharper: “Please…Anyway…if anyone is wondering what happened before the commercial break, Aiken and New Eden hacked into the production truck again to broadcast from their phone. Mr. D cut the feed and we went to commercial. We don’t know if they’re going to try again, but if we abrupt cut away, we apologize.”

 

"I Am Machine" by Three Days Grace blasts over the loudspeakers as the lights in the arena go out and the fans instantly start to boo heavily when they recognize whose theme song it is. Just a spotlight focuses on the curtains of the entrances the clips once again fades away into the words that read: “Bleeding you is more than just torment.”

The curtains slowly start to part as ONE WOMAN ARMY walks out first. She stands at the top of the ramp. Next comes Brittany Lohan, she slips through the curtain like a slithering snake. She stands next to OWA at the top of the ramp and she looks like everything, but relaxed as her whole body is tensed looking like she’s ready to strike at the drop of a dime like a coiled cobra. Her icy eyes pan around the arena and the fans closest to the ramp and she snarls at a few of them get a little too vocal with her. However, the moment that her eyes catch the glimpse of the ring she shuts the fans out and turns all of her attention to the squared circle.

 

Sharper: “A new addition here…Brittany Lohan coming out with someone else.”

 

Knots: “Well we’ve only seen her to start the night. She wasn’t with Silas’ World earlier tonight when they had their team meeting.”

With clenched fists, gritted teeth, and glaring icy eyes… Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically with OWA following her. Lohan is taking slow, calculated, but powerful steps towards the ring. Her icy glare is so fixated on the ring that it would seem to appear that she doesn’t realize that the arena is nearly sold out. The way that she looks right now it might as well be empty for all she cares.

As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down to a snails pace as she proceeds to walk around the perimeter of the ring with her eyes closed. When she’s satisfied she opens her eyes and reaches up to grab the bottom rope with her right hand and pulls herself up onto the apron only allowing one knee to touch before she rolls into the ring. OWA stands on the outside watching Britt.

With Lohan in the ring she gets on both of her knees, closing her eyes. OWA then enters the ring as Brittany Lohan looks around and heads over to the corner. She grabs a microphone and turns before walking over to the middle of the ring. OWA just continues to look around as Lohan glares at the crowd, hearing the boos as she just then ignores them and starts to talk.

 

Lohan: “Silas Mason is not here. And that is in many ways a tragedy. And I stress that the rest of Silas’ World will do whatever they can to make him proud.”

 

The crowd boos as Lohan pauses for a moment.

 

Lohan: “In tragedy, there is opportunity….but I also will do my own to make Silas Mason proud and in the process, bring a smile to my own face. With Silas away for an unknown period of time, I’m going to do my own thing, separate from the rest. Yes, Angelica Waters…I’m focusing entirely on you.”

 

Lohan pauses again before putting her hand up.

 

Lohan: “I should clarify further. Every night you are here…either myself or this young lady, the One Woman Army…we will make sure we know where you are, what you do and if you want to come for a fight, we’re going to force you to have to do it face to face. We’re going to have to force you to take me head on and more importantly…we’re going to make sure that you regret every decision you’ve made since coming to SCW.”

 

Lohan steps forward to the ropes.

 

Lohan: “See, Angelica, what I’m going to do in the period where Silas Mason has to live with his reminder of Jake Starr attacking him, I’m going to take that same time and make you regret every moment you breath and walk into an SCW arena. I’m going to take back everything you’ve taken from me…yes…the Tag Team Titles will be mine again…I will make you regret every attack from behind, every time you walked to the ring and picked a fight. I will make sure that you see 2015, you get the spotlight you want and that will be when I drop you on your head and end you with the Final Solution.”

 

Lohan smiles.

 

Lohan: “That’s what I want….and Angelica, I hope you’re watching. I hope all of your friends are watching. Anyone who cares about you is. They better relish whatever competition you have until you finally step in this ring with me…you’ve pissed off the War Machine. And Angelica…that’s just beyond stupid!”

 

The crowd boos. Lohan then steps back and brings the microphone down. She turns and flips it off to the side, causing it to crash to the mat and roll towards the ropes. Her music plays again as OWA just continues to look out at the crowd. Lohan just keeps focusing on the camera.

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan, focused as ever.”

 

Knots: “She’s aiming for the World Tag Titles. We were wondering there…She’s brought in some protection to watch her back…and she’s made it clear. Angelica Waters is going to get her ass kicked and I can’t wait!”

 

Sharper: “Angelica Waters is firing her up. I hope this is what she had planned and I hope she’s ready.”

 

Lohan keeps looking at the camera as the crowd boos her. OWA continues to stand stoically behind her. After several moments, we cut backstage.

Backstage we open up in the office of Mr. D to see Mr. D standing in his office talking to Lucas Knight and Christy Matthews.

 

Mr. D: “I’m not going to let you do that Lucas.”

 

Lucas: “Why not? I mean, I wouldn’t mind knocking Aiken’s block off again. Give me a microphone. I’m pretty sure I can stand there and ask some questions. Aiken…why are you such a wanker?  Red Rayne…if I rip your eyes out, are you still blind?!”

 

Mr. D: “Lucas-“

 

Christy: “Lucas, you need to calm down. He’s just getting under our skin. He’s going to keep doing that.”

 

Lucas: “Then let’s get under his skin by ripping off some tracts of it. Give him to me in an Underground match. Any of them. Hell, let’s see how dominant they are and put them against the Order of Chaos. We’ve never lost in tag action. We can show them true dominance.”

 

Mr. D: “Lucas…we don’t know what they’re doing outside of holing up in that room. They’re playing their tricks but I’d rather have that then something else.”

 

Lucas shakes his head.

 

Christy: “We know this  isn’t done.”

 

Mr. D: “I know. And if they push back harder, I’ll keep your idea in mind. But I need everyone focusing on their careers and getting back to business as usual. I don’t want them influencing everything again.”

 

Lucas: “Whatever.”

 

Lucas turns and walks off. Christy Matthews just sighs.

 

Christy: “Sorry about him. He’s just really been on edge about this.”

 

Mr. D: “I noticed in the cage match. I assume he’s just thinking back to the Blitzkrieg days.”

 

Christy: “A lot of history there…”

 

Mr. D: “I know…But you have to see where I’m coming from.”

 

Christy: “You do know they’re not done…they’ll take their chance when they see it.”

 

Mr. D: “I know…that’s why I need you guys ready…not just  picking a fight.”

 

Christy nods and then turns.

 

Christy: “Fair enough.”

 

Christy starts to walk off as Mr. D watches her leave and sits back down as the scene fades away.

We cut backstage to suddenly hear some noise and commotion as we see the view of a cameraman running down the hallway. The view goes back and forth, before we cut to another shot to see a security guard being knocked down. We hear more yelling before we see Rachel Foxx nailing one guard with a sledgehammer and then turning and shoving one back and into the door that leads to the New Eden locker room.

 

Sharper: “Rachel Foxx…she’s lost it.”

 

Knots: “She already did. But what’s she doing?”

 

Sharper: “We know that security is not following or limiting her. She’s just by herself now!”

 

Knots: “Well she’s helping New Eden! We need people there fast!”

 

Foxx then turns and nails another guard as he gets up in the ribs with the end of the sledgehammer. The door opens and Aiken steps out and looks around and smiles. He steps out and Rachel turns and extends the sledgehammer to him.

 

Aiken: “Rachel…what a lovely surprise.”

 

Foxx: “I figured we needed to talk.”

 

Aiken: “What for?”

 

Foxx: “Where is she?”

 

Foxx then turns and nails the cameraman, knocking him down. Fortunately, the first cameraman is back and keeps his distance, showing it from behind.

 

Aiken: “One moment.”

 

Aiken glances back.

 

Aiken: “Oh Red…”

 

Foxx just glares, holding the sledgehammer up still as we see some officials showing up. Red Rayne steps out.

 

Foxx: “Everyone stay back…I need to have a talk with her.”

 

Red: “Rachel…”

 

Aiken: “So what is it you want to talk about.”

 

Foxx: “Brother in law…leave. This is just her and I.”

 

Aiken lifts his hands up and turns.

 

Aiken: “Very well.”

 

Aiken simply returns to the locker room and even closes the door.

 

Red: “So, what do you wish?”

 

Red just looks right at Rachel.

 

Foxx: “I relistened to Auclair’s speech. I rewatched Total War. I’ve noticed something.”

 

Red Rayne just slightly smiles.

 

Sharper: “We need more security there-“

 

Knots: “No…let them talk. They may kill each other solving everything!”

 

Sharper: “They’re still human beings.”

 

Knots: “One who took you out!”

 

Foxx: “What do you have with Auclair…see, he’s someone I have a problem with and it seems like he sees something in you.”

 

Red: “So he does?”

 

Foxx: “My loyalty is to Aiken…not you.”

 

The crowd cheers hearing this.

 

Red: “Rachel…don’t do something rash.”

 

Foxx: “I’ve already done that….Am I needing watch my back for you? What is your relationship with Auclair?”

 

Red just smiles and doesn’t respond. Foxx then turns and swings the sledgehammer violently as Red however just spews out the Bloodbath mist right into the face of Foxx. Foxx turns and yells out, screaming in pain.

 

Red: “Rachel…”

 

Foxx falls to a knee, yelling in pain. Officials then decide this is their moment and run over as we see Lucas Knight, Christy Matthews and James Marsh-Asher showing up to join in helping. Foxx keeps grasping at her eyes. Red then leans forward and over Foxx.

 

Red: “Rachel…be careful or you’ll never see things as you should. We can be powerful allies.”

 

Red then backs up as Foxx swipes back, yelling in pain. Red Rayne backs up, but then surprisingly, willingly re-enters her locker room and then closes the door behind her.

 

Sharper: “Red Rayne just spewed that mist into the face of Rachel Foxx.”

 

Knots: “They were coming to blows…but Red Rayne is giving her another chance? What the hell is going on?”

 

Sharper: “All I know is that Rachel Foxx is even more unhinged since Total War…and I don’t think she’s going to just fall into line next week. I think Red Rayne just opened up Pandora’s Box.”

 

Knots: “Oh God…”

 

Lucas Knight, Christy Matthews and James Marsh-Asher stand closer to the door watching it as officials try to help Foxx. Foxx however swipes at them, keeping everyone away. Everyone just keeps their distance as she keeps grabbing at her eyes, trying to get the liquid out of them and rolling over, writhing in pain on the concrete. The scene then fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Dark Fantasy vs. The Howells

 

The lights go out and as Van Halen's powerful anthem "Top of the World" begins, white strobe lights do as well. Soon appearing on stage is Dylan Howell, dressed in a black leather jacket with red shorts and boots, both bearing his initials. With him walks Jessica Howell. Jesse is wearing a black Affliction shirt with the neck line cut so it hangs off one shoulder, a black skirt with a white studded belt and knee-high black leather boots. Both have their SCW World Tag Team Championship belts around their waists. The crowd boos as the Howells just shake their head at the crowd.

The two of them walk to the ring side by side, ignoring the fans. Once they arrive at ringside, Dylan heads up the stairs first and then holds the ropes open for Jesse who gives him a little show as she steps in the ring. Once both are inside, Jesse holds up the title around her waist. Dylan just smirks enjoying the sight before taking off his title and they hand them off to Jason Phillips. They then wait in the ring.

 

Sharper: “There are your World Tag Team Champions. Huge main event here.”

 

Knots: “Huge night to make an impact. They’ve been criticizing everyone. They’ve been critical of anyone standing up to New Eden now after a year ago, no one did. And tonight, they get to take that anger and take it out on Dark Fantasy.”

 

Sharper: “You can’t seriously agree with them?”

 

Knots: “I don’t…but I understand and you know  what? I’m going to support them if they get this win tonight. Tag Champs looking to beat one of the greatest teams in wrestling history.”

 

The lights around the arena dim leaving the spotlights focused on the stage.

 

“I’ve got the gift of one-liners,
And you’ve got the curse of curves!”


The opening to “Misery Business” by Paramore suddenly hits the PA system as the spotlights on the stage flash between pink and white and the video screens around the arena begin to play. The crowd cheers

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy


After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn Taylor and Syren make their way out on the stage. Ravyn and Syren are wearing matching pink ring jackets, each holding their respective titles. Syren and Ravyn pose back to back, with Syren blowing a kiss to the crowd. The crowd begin to cheer as the trio make their way to the ring, with Syren and Ravyn joining arms as they do so. Autumn slides in under the bottom rope while Ravyn climbs the ring steps and Syren stops in front of the camera and flicks her hair back before singing along with the lyrics, mouthing the words “And if you could then you know you would, cause god it just feels so”, before taking a few more steps and spinning back around to the camera, completing the chorus by mouthing “it just feels SO good!”

Syren points to herself, shouting to the fans “greatest tag team EVER” as Dylan and Jessica glare at them before she continues walking to the ring and leaps up on to the apron, ducking under the middle rope and wiggling her ass to the crowd to tease the fans. As she does this, Jessica runs over and knees her in the side, knocking her down to the floor. Ravyn then enters and goes over to Jessica and forearms her before turning and nailing Dylan with a forearm, throwing down her US title and then turning back to Jessica. Dylan goes to go after her, but the official tells him to get back.

 

Sharper: “Jessica Howell and Dylan Howell taking down Syren. Ravyn fighting them both off.”

 

Knots: “Come on ref! He’s trying to help his wife!”

 

Sharper: “The official trying to get Dylan Howell out of the ring and look out!”

 

Ravyn grabs Jessica and pulls her away from the ropes, but she rakes her eyes and kicks her in the knee. She then turns and throws her into the corner. Syren gets up and goes to her corner as Jessica kicks Ravyn in the ribs and then again and again. Jessica grabs her and whips her across as Dylan exits and the bell sounds.

 

Sharper: “And as Jessica sends Ravyn across, this match officially starts.”

 

Knots: “She’s all over Ravyn. You gotta do that. And if I’m the Howells, I keep Syren the hell out of there.”

 

Jessica runs across after Ravyn and clotheslines her. Ravyn winces. Jessica then chops her. The crowd woos and many boo before Jessica grabs Ravyn and spins her around and into the ropes nearest Dylan. Jessica reaches over and tags in Dylan. Jessica holds Ravyn on the ropes, throat first against the top rope and Dylan grabs Ravyn’s head and hits a guillotine drop. Ravyn falls back as the crowd boos. Jessica then exits the ring. Dylan sits on the apron for a moment before pulling himself into the ring. Ravyn starts to get up and Dylan walks over to her and pulls her up before scoop slamming her down. He goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Ravyn fighting back. Out of the corner. Those chops waking her up.”

 

Knots: “Ravyn may be the weak link in one sense of Dark Fantasy, but she’s proven she can outsmart everyone. Look at her US title reign.”

 

Sharper: “She’s said that multiple times. Syren is the better wrestler of the two, but Ravyn is the brains. I’d argue their more event than ever.”

 

Ravyn forearms Dylan and Dylan knees her in the ribs. He goes to run her across the ring to the other neutral corner to drive her face first into the top turnbuckle, but Ravyn blocks and elbows Dylan in the ribs. She elbows him again and then drives him face first. Dylan turns and Ravyn jumps up and hits an enziguri to the side of Dylan’s head. He falls over and drops down to his knees, holding onto the ropes. Ravyn starts to get up and runs into the ropes. Jessica spins around and goes to knee her. Ravyn however sees it coming, dodges it and nails Jessica with a hard right. The crowd cheers. Jessica falls off the apron. Ravyn turns and Dylan runs at her for a clothesline. Ravyn ducks and both spin around. Ravyn then jumps up and hits a dropkick. Dylan goes up and over the top rope and to the floor. The crowd cheers.

 

Sharper: “Ravyn hits the dropkick. The momentum takes Dylan to the floor.”

 

Knots: “Come on Dylan, Jessica…get it together.”

 

Sharper: “And there’s the tag to Syren!”

 

Ravyn turns and heads over to Syren and dives over for the tag. Syren enters the ring and runs over to the ropes across from the Howells. She bounces off them and runs over towards the ropes and hits a Fosbury flop over the top rope and onto both Dylan and Jessica Howell. The crowd erupts in cheers. Syren rolls over and goes to the barricade.(1)

 

Sharper: “My God! Up and over! Diving moonsault onto both!”

The scene fades out.
