“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

 

MAIN SHOW:

 

“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play.

We then see a shot of Alexis Quinne and PUNK HAZARD carrying their banner.
 
"Cause we could be immortals, immortals

If we meet forever now, pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long
We could be immor immortals, immor immortals
Immor immortals,
immor immortals
Immortals"
 
We then see a shot of Merrick Wiseman handcuffing Ravyn Taylor before showing Adrenaline Rush in the ring. Shots of Kennedy Street standing in the middle of the ring posing, followed by Katie Steward posing and AJ Helms and Shaun Cruze walking to the ring are shown. This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping Rachel Foxx with the Catnap inside Tactical Warfare before showing Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster posing, followed by a shot of Tyler Tucker going for the Caffeine Crash before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.

 

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

 

Sharper: “Welcome to Nashville, Tennessee as the first Breakdown of 2017 comes to you live! Adam Sharper alongside Shawn Winters here at ringside and we have a new World Champion in Selena Frost.”

 

Winters: “The Year of Selena Frost is over. She ended it with the World Title. Now is the year where she shows whether she can handle the responsibility and obligations of holding the richest prize in the sport!”

 

We then cut to Jessica Winters who stands in the middle of the ring.

 

Jessica: “Ladies and gentlemen, the NEW SCW World Champion…Selena Frost!”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

"BELIEVE IT!"

"What I Believe" by Skillet brings forth a barrage purple-blue lights in the design of snowflakes across the arena. From the back, out walks The Snow Queen, herself, Selena Frost. She has the SCW World Championship over her shoulder. She looks around before starting to make her way down the rampway.

 

Sharper: “And the big question now for Selena Frost is who will be her first challenge. The problem is that Syren and Alexis Quinne are already booked to face each other at Hazardous Envy. Kelcey Wallace and Blake Mason too. There is an opening here.”

 

Winters: “I have a good idea of who that could be. I have a couple of good ideas.”

 

Sharper: “Well, spill it.”

 

Winters: “Well I don’t want to be a buzzkill.”

Selena reaches the ring and walks up the steel steps. She steps into the ring. She looks around the ring. She walks over to Jessica Winters who turns to her. Selena looks around as the music fades out. She just smiles as the crowd continues to cheer her for a few moments before silencing to hear what she has to say.

 

Jessica: “Selena, first off, congratulations. You are the new SCW World Champion. You defeated Alexis Quinne, but not without some controversy and I think you should take some time to address that. There is the situation with Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster, but first, your first comments as Champion…”

 

Selena: “Jessica…I kept saying I didn’t know if I could stand here and be champion. I kept saying I wasn’t ready, but the True Believers, well…they believed and here I am. And even two weeks after Quinne tried to assist in the end of my career…I beat her. And I capped off an amazing year that I will never forget. I stand here not just as World Champion, but as your champion as without you, I wouldn’t have gotten the opportunity. I wouldn’t be standing here. And for that, I thank you.”

 

The crowd cheers a bit.

 

Jessica: “Now Selena, we should get the elephant in the room. You asked Regan Street not to get involved. And while many of us question Regan Street’s tactics and outlook, she had been a good friend of yours in the past. She said she would give your chance. And then she got involved, attacked Alexis Quinne and ran. You elected to allow Quinne to get back up and ensure she was ready to compete. Some have suggested you should have taken the opportunity Regan gave you.”

 

Selena pauses as the crowd boos a bit.

 

Selena: “And if I had accepted that, not only would I be out here not thanking my True Believers but needing to thank Regan, I would have left who I truly am in that ring. I know some people thought I was taking a risk, but I would rather lose by doing what I felt was right and just, regardless of whether I may have wanted to get some measure of revenge against Quinne that badly….than win and question my soul for the rest of my life. I remember one thing Syren said on the last Breakdown of the year…I knew full well I could be costing her a shot at the World Title if I won. I know that’s not something she takes kindly to. And I don’t blame her. But she said, if AJ or myself won on our merits, she could respect that. And I hope she respects this.”

 

Selena looks at the World Title on her shoulder.

 

Selena: “Regan Street may hate her, but I will not stand here and say I don’t respect what Syren has done in this sport. And I would rather have her respect than to not have to respect myself. I would not want to stand here claiming to be champion when I had to cheat myself to do it and that’s why I didn’t want Regan to get involved. That’s why I wanted to stand on my own. I knew PUNK HAZARD could come out. I know some people don’t like how I carry myself. I can live with that all. I would not be able to stand here and call myself champion if I had to take that cheap shot and win it that way. So I let Alexis get back up, I let her decide when to come back at me and despite it all, I was able to stand at the end as World Champion. And-“

 

We hear the sound of a Hellcat scratching through a screen before roar. “Who’s Next” starts to play and the crowd boos. Selena turns and looks at the entrance way. A few moments pass before Regan Street storms out from the back. She looks down at the ring and starts to walk down the rampway.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street apparently has something to say to Selena Frost.”

 

Winters: “Her former friend apparently respects Syren more than Regan it sounds like.

 

Sharper: “That’s not what she said.”

 

Regan Street heads down to the ring looking right at Selena Frost. The crowd boos as Regan Street heads up the steel steps and then walks into the ring. She looks over at Selena and steps forward and glares at her.

 

Jessica: “Regan Street joining us here in the ring.”

 

Regan walks over and grabs the microphone, moving it over to her. Jessica keeps hold of it.

 

Regan: “So you really going to care about what that blonde bitch has to say? Let’s put it this way. I’ve had it with people telling me she deserves the world. I happened to just make sure things worked out a bit more for people like you and I Sel. And you want to have her respect? Let’s face it…that’s worth nothing.”

 

Selena: “It’s worth something if I don’t need to become something I have said I wouldn’t become for them!”

 

Selena points at the crowd.

 

Selena: “I am champion because I won, not because you need to get your petty revenge on Syren!”

 

The crowd roars. Regan just smirks.

 

Selena: “I’ve heard you. On Twitter, in promotional work. You think Syren has some inside track. She had a rematch clause. The same rematch clause you used to get YOUR rematch last year. You’re damn good in that ring, but you’ve become a completely different person. And it’s all because of THIS! I won’t let THIS change me.”

 

Selena holds up the SCW World Championship.

 

Regan: “Then you’re naïve, because it’s all you’ll be defined by. See, I knew that…and you knew that. That’s why I remember standing backstage with you, reminding you not to throw away this chance. Remember that…you wanted to tell D that you didn’t deserve it. Tell these True Believers they were wrong. You shouldn’t get the shot. But then who convinced you…yeah…And I just made sure you’d take what you should’ve had months ago and if it helped me…great.”

 

Selena: “And I thank you for making me realize I was wrong…but I will not thank you for getting involved. The Regan that was my friend would’ve let me succeed or fail on my own. The Regan than stands in front of me…I don’t know what I’m going to get.”

 

Regan just scoffs as Jessica turns back to her.

 

Regan: “You’re getting a target on your back. You’re getting me coming after you-“

 

Selena: “And about that, you know what Regan. I think you need to listen to me for once. For the entire year, you’ve had this chip on your shoulder. We were friends. Sienna, you, myself. Platinum was going to be a force to be reckoned with. It never got there because when I beat you in Best of the Best, you took it personally. And then the World Title was everything you. While I continued to build my career, I watched someone who was a friend throw everything away because….well, I don’t know. Maybe it is that simple as the World Title or maybe jealousy. But it’s a new year Regan. It’s not 2016. It’s not the Year of Selena Frost. It’s not your year of you being forced to watch others step up. It’s not your year of how you’re not this or that…This is 2017. A new year. New selves…New champion…”

 

Selena pauses for a moment. Regan and Selena just lock eyes.

 

Selena: “I don’t have the personal hatred Syren has for you. But I’m sick and tired of you thinking that because we were friends I should do anything for you. I am the SCW World Champion. I have done all of this WITHOUT you. I wish we could go back to where we were laughing about weekend plans, but you took that away, so I’m going to now at least do it this way…Hazardous Envy. You have that chip on your shoulder. Well how about you take me on for the World Title. And if I win, we’ll see if you have it in you to actually be a human being or you really don’t give a damn about me.”

 

The crowd roars. Regan just scoffs a bit.

 

Selena: “At least this time, I won’t be blindsided when you act like a bitch.”

 

Selena steps away and steps out of the ring. Regan just looks at her as Selena starts to walk around the ring. “What I Believe” starts to play. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Selena Frost with a clear challenge to Regan Street! The champion challenging a challenger!”

 

Winters: “And one who is getting what she wants, but-“

 

Regan then grabs the microphone as the music fades out a bit.

 

Regan: “You’re on Selena.”

 

The crowd roars a bit as Selena then continues to head to the back. Regan watches Selena head to the back as a smile comes on her face. Selena continues to head to the back as we cut to the announce table.

We open up to see Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at the announce position.

 

Winters: “Regan Street seems to be getting what she’s wanted for months.”

 

Sharper: “And I’m sure that will get some criticism. That’s how much the World Title means to so many, but Selena Frost has a personal stake beyond the title. This is about her making a point to Regan too.”

 

Winters: “Selena has beat her with high stakes on the line.”

 

Sharper: “Speaking of high stakes, a lot to offer tonight. We’ll see the TV Title up for grabs. Kennedy Street will defend against Cassidy Carter. And remember, back when Ace Marshall and Kennedy Street were an item, Cassidy Carter was the one who pulled Ace away from Kennedy and they do not like each other. I’m sure we’ll hear more about that.”

 

Winters: “Also, big night for the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. Ace Marshall will face off against AJ Helms later. Ikiro Yoshida challenges for the Adrenaline Title. Shilo Valiant in action. And next Tommy Valentine will face off against Donovan Kayl.”

 

Sharper: “That will be next. Also, Kelcey Wallace in action against Damian Angel. Sisterhood face off against Tainted Justice and Daughters of Darkness look for some revenge against the Stewards after their early exit in the Turmoil at Hell Hath No Fury. It’s the first Breakdown of 2017 and SCW kicking it with competition you cannot find anywhere else! We’ll be back!”

 

We go to a panning shot of the area as “Immortals” plays in the background before we cut to commercials.

Donovan Kayl (2 pts) vs. Tommy Valentine (0 pts)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

 

"Epic" by Faith No More starts to play as the spotlight focuses on the top of the ramp. Immediately, the crowd begins to cheer. Stepping out to the top of the ramp is "The Cornerstone" Donovan Kayl. He steps to the side, facing out to the crowd. After turning his head to survey the entire crowd, he turns to face the front of the ramp, beginning to walk out towards the ring.

Phillips: "The following contest is for the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament with a ten minute time limit. Introducing first, from Toronto, Canada, he is The Cornerstone of Professional Wrestling, Donovan Kayl!"

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

Sharper: "We're guaranteed a classic to kick off the show tonight. Donovan Kayl so far with two points, will be looking for two more against another Veteran in Thomas Valentine."

Winters: "He'll have a lot to prove after Hell Hath No Fury which saw the crowning of Alexis Quinne. Unfortunately the last show of the year wouldn't be her night. We watched her attempt to defend the SCW Championship twice in one night, the second not successful."

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. 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. A shadowed figure can be seen standing in front of the curtain at the top of the ramp. The lights start to strobe again briefly as the song reverberates throughout the arena now, causing the fans to start cheering. The lights finally flicker back on and Thomas Valentine can now be seen on top of the arena's ramp in a set of shades with a custom logo on the lens, as he looks out into the audience that are now cheering loudly, chanting his name in some cases. He stops and smiles a little before spinning around away from the fans and holding his arms outwards before making a beckoning motion with his hands, fireworks shoot out at the top of the ramp again in a burst before he spins one hundred and eighty degrees and resumes walking down to the ring.

Phillips: "And his opponent, from Raleigh, North Carolina, Thomas Valentine!"

As he walks past the barrier he looks out into the crowds and goes to high five as many fans as possible before moving on down the ramp, reveling in their adoration and cheers before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, making beckoning gestures again before smiling at all the fans in the crowds. He jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles before standing still in the centre, cranking his neck. Thomas then takes the sunglasses off and hands them to the referee, telling him to keep them safe before turning to face Donovan. Donovan makes a gesture of respect, Tommy returning it slowly but still with reserved skepticism. The referee calls for the bell and both men immediately look up center in the ring. Donovan steps to Tommy's side while locking the arm, spinning it behind his back. Tommy drops to his knee and flips Donovan over with a Fireman's carry. He drops and locks Donovan in a chinlock as Donovan is fighting to his feet. He turns and connects with several elbows to the mid section before breaking free and running into the ropes. He runs back in going for a jump up shining wizard. Tommy catches him, absorbing the initial blow before throwing Donovan over head with a T-Bone suplex. The crowd pops as he drops and quickly goes for the cover.

Donovan kicks out before three while quickly raising and blasting Tommy with a forearm shot to the chin. As Tommy leans over in the other direction from the blow, Donovan turns and throws his leg up and over before hooking it over Tommy's head. Pulling Tommy down he spins him on his side before grabbing his arm and locking on a modified arm bar with a neck lock. Tommy flails for a bit before managing to roll Donovan over on to his back. He rolls him up while Donovan keeps the arm locked.

1!

2!

Donovan kicks out while releasing the arm and both immediately pull themselves up to their feet, Tommy catching him with a crescent kick to the face. Pulling Donovan back to his feet he whips him into the ropes before dropping down as he's returning. Donovan leaps over his back and bounces off the ropes as Tommy leaps up and connects with a dropkick to the chin that knocks him back on the mat. Standing he runs into the ropes and comes back before going for a shining wizard as Donovan kneels up. Donovan drops back down, avoiding the knee before doing a flip back to his feet. As Tommy turns Donovan meets him with a kick to the gut followed through with a snap suplex. While on the ground he hooks both of Tommy's arm and pulls him up and prepares to be going for a double arm variant. Tommy lifts Donovan up on to his shoulder before running with him into the corner. He drives his shoulder into Donovan's mid section repeatedly, before doing a back flip, landing on his feet and charging for another. Donovan throws his legs up to the side just as Tommy goes in, before flipping over his back while hooking his arms with his legs. He pulls him down with a sunset flip, pinning his shoulders to the mat.

Tommy kicks out. Donovan stands just as Tommy rolls backs onto his feet, Donovan running in and meeting him with a forearm smash to the face that knocks him into the ropes. Donovan pulls his arm over and throws it on the rope before connecting with a knife hand chop across the chest. He comes back with an uppercut just a Tommy pulls his arm back. Grabbing his arm he goes to whip him across the ring, Tommy countering as he spins and connects with a stiff kick to the mid section, followed through with quickly jumping up and connecting with an enziguiri kick across the side of the head. He stands back up before stepping over onto the apron as Donovan falls to the mat.

Sharper: "Thomas Valentine with a stiff kick to the side of the head, Donovan's brains could be scrambled. Donovan Kayl has made it clear from the get go the passion he has stepping into this tournament. Already off to a good start but he is facing Thomas Valentine who earlier in the year was just within an arm's reach of being a Supreme Champion."

Winters: "You know both men are going to want it, they're going to both have the passion but in a match like this you just need to in the end outdo your opponent. Where Donovan Kayl you could argue is a wrestling savant, Thomas Valentine is almost the perfect competitor in what you would expect highlighted in the Adrenaline Division. He's faster and will be looking to use his momentum to his advantage from wherever he's coming from. High risk, high reward. What it means to be the top of this division."

The crowd cheers as Donovan pulls himself up to his feet. Tommy calls for it before leaping up and spring boarding off of the top rope, connecting with a springboard elbow smash just as Donovan turns, falling back to the mat. Tommy crawls over on his knees before leaping up and quickly hooking both legs.

1!

2!

Donovan kicks out before three. Pulling him back up to his feet, Tommy pulls him under his arm and sets up for the twist of fate. Donovan shoves Tommy into the ropes before quickly running up behind him. As Tommy bounces off the ropes while turning Donovan catches him with a belly to belly suplex. Pulling him back to his feet he knees him in the mid section before stepping in behind him and setting up for an octopus stretch. Tommy fights out with several elbow shots before spinning and connecting with an elbow to the jaw that nearly knocks Donovan back to the mat. Running up Tommy connects with a second and third before turning and running into the ropes. Spring boarding off of the second rope he goes for a roundhouse kick to the face. Donovan side steps him before spinning Tommy around as he lands before pulling him in and connecting with a spike DDT. Kicking back up to his feet Donovan runs over and springboards off of the second rope, the fans cheering wildly as he goes for a moonsault. Tommy gets his knees up and manages to block it.

Winters: "Donovan going for a high risk! Not paying off! Both of them finding themselves going all out in the heat of the moment which can totally be taken out of context here."

Sharper: "What can't be is this match needs to have a winner soon before it ends in a draw! We're closing in on the ten minute mark here!"

Tommy stands as Donovan rolls over clutching his mid section. Pulling him back to his feet he goes for another forearm shot. Donovan ducks it before ducking under his arm and stepping in behind him. Lifting his arm up and wrapping it quickly behind Tommy's head he whips him down hard with a hangman's neck breaker. Rolling over on the mat still slightly favoring where he landed, Donovan pushes himself up before grabbing Tommy by the arm. Lifting him up he charges in and connects with a forearm shot of his own to his jaw. Grabbing his arm he pulls him in under his arm before stepping over toward the corner. Stepping up onto the first and then second turnbuckle, he looks to be going for a tornado DDT. Tommy fights back with several rights and lefts to the mid section, breaking Donovan's grasp. Shoving him into a sitting position on the top turnbuckle, Tommy climbs up to join him on the second. He leaps up going for a frankensteiner. Donovan grasps the top rope as Tommy flips completely backwards and off of his shoulders, landing back on his feet. Donovan releases the top rope while delivering a stiff kick to Tommy's face. As Tommy spins around Donovan stands up onto the top turnbuckle. As Tommy turns back around Donovan leaps off before connecting with a dragonrana, hooking both legs over Tommy's shoulders as they land.

Tommy kicks out before three. Both men stand, Tommy grabbing the rope to pull himself up and turning into a stiff shot to the jaw. Donovan shoves him into the corners before connecting with several solid kicks to the mid section. As Tommy begins to slowly buckle down Donovan spins before running across the ring. He turns and comes back, going for a shining wizard in the corner. Tommy drops down at the last second as Donovan's knees crash into the top turnbuckle. As he falls back to the mat Tommy grabs both of his legs while leaping over, going for a jack knife pin.

1!

2!

Donovan kicks out. Hitting the mat Tommy rolls over and kneels, looking to be preparing for the Griever's Bane. The crowd cheers in anticipation. Donovan slowly pulls himself up before turning just as Tommy goes for the Griever's Bane. Donovan pulls Tommy's head down before he leaps up to connect and manages to drop him with a reverse DDT. He quickly spins through while sitting over top of Tommy's back before locking in the Attitude Adjustment. Tommy tries to spin out from underneath Donovan, flailing and fighting back.

Sharper: "Attitude Adjustment! It's locked in!"

Winters: "Less than a minute before this match is thrown out! Hold on Valentine!"

Tommy throws himself forward but misses the rope, Donovan leans down placing all of his weight onto him to prevent him from further moving. After another moment passes Tommy begins to tap. "Epic" begins to play as the crowd roars. Pulling himself up Donovan lets the referee lift his arm up in victory.

Winters: "So close! Less than a minute on the clock and this is something all competitors need to be aware of going into their contests. While this division is fast paced and explosive, the competitors are resilent and if you can't put them out within ten minutes, the match is over and you're a point shy of what could have been."

Sharper: "Close in this case, both competitors were exceptional, their experience shining through in both of their styles. Donovan Kayl however making on his word to stand out going into this tournament. He now has four points, Thomas Valentine zero. You know everyone else in the bracket is watching this. This could be them, the points or lack of them could be what keeps them from stepping into the semi finals. Donovan Kayl well on his way."

Donovan slides out of the ring as the crowd continues to cheer for both competitors, Tommy sliding over as he begins to pull himself back to his feet, appearing very fatigued.

We open up backstage to see Mr. D and Christina Matsui going over some paperwork.

 

Christina: “I’ll get that filed with them.”

 

Mr. D: “Thanks.”

 

Amy Chastaine then walks into the office. Mr. D looks up at the US Champion.

 

Mr. D: “Amy, how can I help you?”

 

Amy: “Well I can’t say the year started off in a way I’m pleased with.”

 

Mr. D: “Selena’s challenge to Regan.”

 

Amy: “That’s a start. Look, Regan is a good wrestler. I’m not here to say that she shouldn’t ever get a shot, but for her to get the first crack-“

 

Mr. D: “Over you?”

 

Amy pauses for a moment.

 

Amy: “There are some other people, yes, myself included, who don’t feel the need to extort our way in. Selena’s never been at the top and she’s a great wrestler. Sweet girl. But maybe too sweet-“

 

Mr. D: “Amy, I get the frustration. There’s a lot of frustration. That’s the level of competition in SCW coming through. So many people not only want the opportunity to prove themselves as champion, but they think they should be next. But Amy, you’ve got a full plate. You’re the US Champion. And you’ll be defending that title at Hazardous Envy. As for the World Title, given Selena’s past against you.”

 

Amy: “Don’t remind me.”

 

Mr. D: “You know she will. She takes great pride in her work. But my understanding is that she’s looking to remove chips of not only her shoulders but people she’s had issues with. You may not be far behind.”

 

Amy: “So wait…you’re letting her-“

 

Mr. D: “We’ll see how it goes. So far, what she’s told me, I can’t disagree, both as a promoter and from a business sense.”

 

Amy looks down and thinks about it for a moment.

 

Amy: “Alright…then one question.”

 

Mr. D: “Your challenger?”

 

Amy: “Exactly.”

 

Mr. D: “Marie Jones.”

 

The crowd boos a bit as Amy actually smiles.

 

Amy: “After what she pulled at End of the Year Special…I can live with that.”

 

Amy turns and walks off as Mr. D watches her leave. The camera follows her out and we see the same figure from last week just watching from down the hallway. Amy walks down the hall and right past the man and the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We open up backstage to see Cassidy Carter in her locker room with Ace Marshall. Cassidy Carter is in her wrestling gear as she looks up as Jessica Winters steps inside.

 

Jessica: “Cassidy, can I get a word?”

 

Cassidy: “Supernatural.”

 

Jessica looks a bit stunned.

 

Ace: “You did ask for a word.”

 

Jessica: “Well if you don’t mind, there are a number of questions people have about the two of you, about Cassidy’s match tonight. A lot of history there.”

 

Cassidy: “And a lot has happened. First off, allow me to clarify these things. He is Ace. I am Cassidy. We are married. Oh yeah, that part wasn’t fully obvious. Although we were friendly…”

 

Ace: “Those poor car shampooers…”

 

Jessica looks a bit disgusted.

 

Cassidy: “And I get to do that to Ace while Kennedy can’t. And she hated me for it. Or hates me for it. Or still hates me for it. I mean, it’s not like I stole him from her. I was already friends with Ace before that. It’s not my fault that my bubbly personality turned him to me. Then again, being a raging bitch can do that.”

 

Jessica: “But Kennedy is not the same person she was then.”

 

Cassidy: “Great. Power to her. I’m not either. I have this.”

 

Cassidy extends her finger showing the wedding ring.

 

Cassidy: “He’s now Ace Carter.”

 

Ace: “I thought you were Cassidy Marshall.”

 

Cassidy: “We should be Ace and Cassidy Street. Join the rest of the roster.”

 

Ace: “Now, now there. Don’t do anything too mad.”

 

Cassidy: “Why don’t we take my ‘mother’s’ name as some would say.”

 

Ace: “Ace Foxx! I could star in video games!”

 

Cassidy: “Easy there Shilo.”

 

Jessica: “Ah…”

 

Cassidy turns back to Jessica.

 

Cassidy: “Fine…we’ll make this easy. I don’t care if she’s changed. I just look back to last summer and remember how she was then. If she’s changed, that won’t bother her. If not, well she still has the same idiot entourage. She still has the same entrance. She still wants to show her ass off and she still smells like roses. How much has she changed?”

 

Cassidy smirks.

 

Cassidy: “But I’m a lot richer, have a new car, a new husband. Oh…I’ll also be the TV Champion after tonight.”

 

The crowd roars as we then cut away.

Autumn Valentine vs. Stacy Kissinger

Television Championship Eliminator

 

We return to ringside as Autumn Valentine is making her way down to the ring, “Miss Nothing” playing in the background.

Phillips: "The following contest is a Television Championship Eliminator contest. Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, Autumn Valentine!"

She slaps a few hands of the fans on one side of the entrance ramp before running down the remaining distance to the ring and jumping up onto the ring apron and then leaping onto the middle turnbuckle. She stands there for a second before flipping over into the ring and landing on her feet, then dropping to her knees and posing in the ring. The fans cheer again before Autumn gets back to her feet and removes her ring jacket, placing it down into the corner before running to the other side of the ring and leaping onto the middle rope in the middle of the ring, posing there for a moment with one foot on the middle rope and one on the bottom, balancing there before flipping back over again.

Sharper: "Here we are to determine the next challenger for the Television Championship after tonight. Autumn Valentine is no stranger to this opportunity however has yet to succeed in winning the title. Stacy Kissinger will be looking to capitalize and start 2017 the right way, with Championship gold around her waist."

Winters: "We'll see, both will have an interesting task in front of them, regardless of whichever wins the Television Championship match tonight between Cassidy Carter and Kennedy Street."

The lighting completely turns off inside the arena and only the big screen is lit. It shows a set of deep brown eyes. It slowly zooms out to show the face of Stacy Kissinger. Some people pop in the crowd. The screen zooms out even further until her entire frame can be seen before if zooms back in real fast to just show Stacy’s face. Her eyes blink and then close and then it goes to black. But it's not a few seconds before the beginning of "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten is heard. A small bit of fog rolls out onto the stage and the familiar figure of Stacy Kissinger steps out and through the fog. The stage lights come on so everyone can see her holding a microphone, wearing a yellow and dark slate blue colored robe around her, the colors of Adrenaline Rush. Craig Thomas and Tyler Tucker step out beside her, joining her on stage. She looks to Craig while smiling before removing herself from the foggy stage and descends down the ramp as she looks around the arena a little bit, gently smiling.

Phillips: "And her opponent, from Dallas, Texas, The Golden Sensation, Stacy Kissinger!"

Stacy completes her walk to the ring and slides in. She then stands up and goes to the center of the ring and slowly spins herself around so she can view the entire arena. She then removes the robe from around her, pats a patch of each color that is on the robe before placing it on her corner's turnbuckle, revealing that she has on a short frilly black skirt and a red halter top that states "Feel The Rush", in yellow, on the front. She looks back to the stage, which is when one line of pyro goes off while her entrance music is coming to an end. While it does, Stacy turns her attention Autumn. Turning she goes to the corner of the ring where her Adrenaline Rush colored robe is. She places her special personalized microphone down in the corner. She then warms up for the match that she's about to take part in while Craig and Tucker clap to support her, Craig giving choice words. Autumn walks from her corner to the center of the ring as the referee calls for the bell. Stacy turns and steps toward Autumn, catching her leg as she instinctively goes for a kick. Twisting and falling to the side with her leg she spins her over and to the ground with a dragon screw. Stacy immediately tries locking on The Determining Factor, Autumn having to roll over to her side before rolling forward from underneath Stacy to get back to her feet. Stacy immediately meets her with a right hook to the temple followed with a kick to the mid section and a spinning neck breaker.

Sharper: "Stacy Kissinger starting off very aggressive here, offsetting their prior engagements."

Winters: "It's a new day or something right?"

Autumn starts pulling herself up, Stacy rolling over and quickly mounting her before proceeding to strike her repeatedly with lefts and rights. Autumn manages to shove her off before rolling and standing back up. Stacy charges in behind her before setting her up on her shoulder, lifting and dropping her with a back suplex. Rolling onto her knee, Stacy grabs a hold of Autumn by the shoulder before pulling her up halfway. She releases her before taking a step back and going for a spinning heel kick. Autumn ducks and rolls Stacy up.

Stacy kicks out before the three count. Both stand, Autumn ducking a clothesline attempt, circles around before connecting with several kicks to the ribs. She connects with an elbow shot to the jaw before grabbing Stacy by the arm and whipping her toward the corner. Stacy counters, pulling Autumn back into her before flipping her over with a hip toss. She holds the arm before once more going for the Determining Factor. Autumn flips over back to her feet, her arm still locked by Stacy. She delivers several more kicks to the side before grabbing Stacy's hand with her free arm and spinning it around, locking it behind Stacy's back. Leaping up onto her back she flips over her while wrapping her arm around Stacy's neck, pulling her down with a piggyback stunner. Stacy falls back over to the mat, rolling from side to side before pulling herself up, Autumn running over before curb stomping her back down. She leans into the ropes beckoning for Stacy to get back to her feet. As Stacy starts to Autumn charges going for a second curb stomp. Stacy rushes her before catching her and hooking the raised leg, throwing her over head with a Fisherman suplex, bridging at the end.

Autumn kicks out at two. She rolls over, Stacy crawling toward her before wrapping an arm around her neck, applying a sleeper. Autumn fights back with several shots to the mid section, ending it with an elbow shot to the jaw. Stacy falls back a step before coming in with an elbow of her own. She kicks her directly in the center of the stomach, sending her reeling back across the ring into the ropes. Stacy runs at her to clothesline her over, Autumn jumping up and leaning down on the top rope, pulling it down. Stacy goes over but lands on the apron. Autumn stands and gets an elbow to the jaw knocking her back. Stacy leaps up onto the top rope and jumps over going for a block buster. Autumn ducks it, Stacy crashing to the mat but rolling back up gracefully. Running over Autumn knocks her to the mat with a yokuza kick to the face just as she spins around.

Sharper: "Stacy missing but not losing a step. Autumn however quick with that kick!"

Winters: "May have knocked her back a week."

Autumn grabs and starts pulling Stacy back up, Stacy countering with a jaw breaker. She runs over before grabbing Autumn by the back of the head and dropping her with a face buster. Autumn rolls over grabbing her face as Stacy continues on with the assault, connecting with several stomps. Grabbing her by the hair she goes to pull her up only to be met with a jaw breaker from Autumn. Autumn quickly grabs a hold of Stacy before setting her up and running along the turnbuckles in one corner. The crowd cheers as she connects with the Valentine's Kiss! As both land Autumn quickly makes the cover as Craig and Tucker watch on the outside showing concern.

“Miss Nothing” begins to play throughout the arena as Autumn pulls herself up to her feet, while trying to catch her breath.

Sharper: "Autumn Valentine successful here tonight! She moves on next week to once more challenge for the TV Championship! Will this be her moment? Will it finally be within her grasps?"

Winters: "I don't know, either way she's going to have a very ferocious and determined blonde Champion looking to retain."

Autumn rolls out of the ring as Stacy rolls to the side, Craig and Tucker both looking to assist her. Autumn turns to the crowd, throwing her arms up as she slowly makes her way up the ramp.

We open up in the locker room of Kennedy Street, the general one, as we see some other women wrestlers in the background. Kennedy is in the room alone as Spirit Dansby walks over to her.

 

Spirit: “Kennedy. Could I get a quick word or two about your match tonight? It has to be a match you’ve been waiting for for a long time.”

 

Kennedy pauses for a moment and looks up.

 

Kennedy: “Cassidy Carter and I have a long history. Ace Marshall is in the center of it. And that was a long time ago, but how a lot of people see me. They see me as the leech that tried to us him to get back the World Championship. I could give the song and dance about how I’m a bit different. I’ve realized what I was like and that’s now how you get it done. I also hate Cassidy’s guts.”

 

Kennedy pauses.

 

Kennedy: “But someone once told me the best way to get revenge is to beat them in that ring and I plan to do that. New year and I get to kick her ass? I’ll take that every day of the week. So Cassidy, enjoy the money, the car, Ace….I’ll still be TV Champion. I’ll still be it for a long damn time and no matter what, you’ll have to deal with watching me hold it. Your Sexy, Flawless Champion is staying right where she is!”

 

The crowd roars as Spirit nods.

 

Spirit: “Thank you Kennedy.”

 

We then cut to a shot of the crowd and the ring.

 

Sharper: “And when we return, more Shot of Adrenaline Tournament action! Breakdown continues after this!”

 

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We open up backstage to see Autumn Valentine getting kicked in the ribs and throw into a wall by Alexis Quinne as El Rudo and Dante stand with her. Quinne stomps Autumn a couple of times as she drops to the floor.

 

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine is being assaulted backstage by PUNK HAZARD!”

 

Winters: “Quinne is all over her.”

 

Quinne: “Hey…I need YOUR attention now Autumn. I need you send a message to your buddy, Syren!”

 

Quinne stomps her in the face and then again in the back before Rudo hands her a can of spray paint. She then grabs her hair and pulls it up before starting to spray a yellow streak down Autumn’s back. Autumn struggles a bit as Quinne sprays back and forth. She then stops before stomping Autumn in the back of the head.

 

Quinne: “Syren’s nothing but a coward. Had she dealt with Regan, I’d still be champion instead of Selena, so I’m holding her responsible. And PUNK HAZARD is coming for something!”

 

Quinne then turns and heads off. Rudo just chuckles as Dante turns and walks off. The crowd boos as Autumn struggles on the ground.

Dark Ninja Jr. (2 pts) vs. Akira Kimura (0 pts)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

 

The violins of "After life" by Avenged Seven fold hit as Smoke fills the entrance. Dark Ninja Jr. steps out the entrance "Are you ready for the match of the night?" He says before too sweeting the camera. He is wearing a Black leather jacket with neon green pieces of fabric hanging from the arms. Over his ring gear which is black t-shirt that has a picture of Dave Meltzer on it. And black and green wrestling pants. Around his waist he is wearing the WAS Turbo Omni Magnificent Title belt. He walks to the ring with a smug egotistical expression that is mostly hidden from beneath his mask.

Phillip: "The following contest is for the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament with a ten minute time limit. Introducing first, from parts unknown, Dark Ninja Jr.!"

As he walks to the ring he gives fans high fives and too sweets to those that throw it up. When he reaches the ring he climbs the rings steps before leaping up on to the top rope. He does a 450 and lands on his feet. He speaks into the camera with a chuckle. Before shrugging and then throwing a super kick at the camera but stopping just before hed hit it.

Sharper: "A performer from an outside company, he is the WAS Turbo Omni Magnificent... Champion. Very confident in his abilities, he came through with a big win in his debut against Ikiro Yoshida!"

Winters: "He also seems like a weirdo. Who the hell is the guy he keeps calling out every week, his boyfriend? Akira Kimura will be looking to succeed where he couldn't in his first round. PUNK HAZARD had much to say in preventing that from happening."

The opening from ‘Lucifer’s Theme (SCW Remix)’ by the Heavy Young Heathens kicks in over the PA system, two red strobe lights either side of the entrance way flashing in unison as the lights in the arena dim. Smoke starts to our through the entrance way as the rift kicks in and the lyrics begin. Akira Kimura steps out from behind the curtains, making his way slowly through the smoke before heading down the ramp.

Phillips: "Ladies and Gentlemen, now making his way to the ring, from Hiroshima, Japan, Akira Kimura!"

Akira slides under the bottom rope and chooses a turnbuckle, jumping onto the second rope and raising both his arms aloft, a single spotlight now landing on him, as the arena lights fade back in. Akira bounces on the second rope and somersaults backwards into the ring as the music fades. He turns around and is immediately met with a 450 front drop kick to the chin that knocks him into the corner. The referee calls for the bell as Ninja Jr. runs into the corner, leaping up and landing on Akira's shoulders. He flips him over from the corner with a hurricanrana before quickly flipping back to his feet and doing a front flip up onto the top rope. He immediately leaps off going for a corkscrew swanton. Akira rolls out of the way as Ninja Jr. lands and rolls over upon landing, quickly flipping back to his feet. Akira runs in behind him and connects with a stiff lariat to the back of the head that knocks him to the mat. He stomps him twice before grabbing his arm going to lift him. Ninja Jr. flips over back to his feet while hooking their arms and going to arm drag Akira over. Akira gives him a stiff elbow to the back of the head for his efforts. Akira proceeds to start locking on an abdominal stretch. Ninja Jr. fights it throwing elbows back that miss, while pulling his legs free. Akira drops before rolling Ninja Jr. up from behind.

Ninja Jr. rolls completely backwards, pulling his shoulders from off of the mat before standing and immediately going for an enziguiri kick to the side of the head. Akira dodges it before quickly leaping up and coming back down with a stiff roundhouse kick to the head. Ninja Jr. lands hard on the mat before trying to shrug it off as he stands back to his head. Akira runs up and starts wailing on Ninja Jr. across the top of his spine with over head fists, causing him to spin out trying to create distance between them. Akira keeps pace before grabbing his arm and trying to whip him into the ropes. Ninja Jr. spins around before suddenly coming up with a snap super kick to the jaw that knocks Akira into the ropes. He bounces off and shakes it off before connecting with another lariat, this one causing Ninja Jr. to flip in mid air upon impact. The crowd oh's and cheers while Ninja Jr. grasps his head while rolling over before flipping back to his feet. Akira turns and is surprised initially as Ninja Jr. steps in and connects with another super kick to the jaw. Akira falls to the mat and rolls over holding his face before Ninja Jr. runs over and leaps up to the top rope, before quickly leaping off with a split legged double moonsault. Akira rolls toward the center of the ring just as Ninja Jr. barely lands on his feet with Akira to his back. Akira leap up and slams Ninja Jr. into the mat with a sleeper slam.

Winters: "These guys are nuts!"

Sharper: "Dark Ninja Jr. and Akira Kimura both shaking off a lot of very hard hitting maneuvers, both showing their quickness and athleticism in short bursts, one after the other! The toll this could quickly have on both of them!"

He goes for a quick cover on Ninja Jr. but is quickly shoved off. Ninja Jr. starts to sit up before quickly ducking as Akira goes for a shining wizard. Rolling over he stands up and rushes back to his feet. As Akira turns he catches him and pulls him down over his shoulder before connecting with a Fireman's carry package driver. The crowd oh's while Ninja Jr. goes to lift Akira back up. Akira is lifted halfway up before meeting Ninja Jr. with a double handed punch to the stomach. He quickly connects with a second and a third that forces Ninja Jr. to all to his knees. Quickly standing he rushes into the ropes before coming back and connecting with an ax kick to the back of the head, knock Ninja Jr. down to the mat. Akira prepares to cover just as Ninja Jr. starts to fight to pull himself up. Akira takes a split second to react, waiting briefly before running into the ropes and spring boarding off of them. As he is coming down he connects with the Winds of Change just as Ninja Jr. is halfway back to his feet. The crowd oh's as he hooks the legs.

‘Lucifer’s Theme (SCW Remix)’ begins to play as Akira quickly pulls himself back to his feet.

Sharper: "Very quick contest with both competitors mostly refusing to stay down!"

Winters: "Key word is mostly. One of them had to and tonight, Akira Kimura would be able to pick up the victory this week where as two weeks ago he could not. Both men are now tied at 2 points, five more matches to go. Both are definitely going to be worth watching in this tournament, just from the excitement factor.

Akira lowers his arm as the referee releases it before making his way to depart. Ninja Jr. starts to slowly stir as Akira is halfway back up the ramp.

 

We open up backstage to see a shot of Jessica Winters standing by with the Daughters of Darkness, Sloan Sawyer and Diana Weston. The crowd boos seeing them.

 

Jessica: “Ladies and gentlemen, Jessica Winters here and I am with the Daughters of Darkness who have claimed dominance in tag team wrestling, but that claim may have been thrown into doubt when three teams in, Team Desire eliminated you from the Tag Team Turmoil. But not only that, you felt the need to get involved and harass and presumably attack Shaun Cruze and AJ Helms in the sham wedding with Lexi!”

 

Sloan: “Well aren’t you a Judgy Jessica. I don’t know if we can stand here with the slander.”

 

Diana: “But is it slander?”

 

Diana smiles.

 

Diana: “Perhaps Shaun and AJ should remember that they owed us a rematch. Perhaps Shaun and AJ should not think they are on top of the world, coming THIS close to becoming World Tag Team Champions.”

 

Sloan: “Oh yeah, totes.”

 

Diana: “And given how 2016 was for some people, perhaps for balance, even a blind squirrel…or rather two of them…needed to find their nut and manage to defeat us in the Turmoil.”

 

Sloan: “And tonight, whoever is up against us. The Stewards, they’re not going to start 2017 as they want. We are. And it will be perf. And it will be with us reminding everyone just why we have just wanted that one legit title match because no one can handle is. Got it?”

 

Sloan and Diana then turn and walk off.

 

Jessica: “Well Sloan Sawyer and Diana Weston not low on confidence. They face off against Team Desire, next, here on Breakdown!”

 

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We return to Breakdown to see Mr. D in his office, rolling his eyes as a brunette woman can be see talking, and rather animatedly at him. Christina Matsui steps out of the room as we see Brett Sinclaire walking over to her.

 

Christina: “Oh Brett…now’s not a good time.”

 

Brett: “Why? Who was that brunette?”

 

Christina: “Sienna’s agent. Wants to negotiate the end to her contract. We’ve been told by Sienna she wants to stay. So it’s best the two lawyers hack it out.”

 

Brett: “I guess that meeting-“

 

Christina: “Sadly not. But I can tell you what we’re doing. Next week, you have two former World Champions. Starr and Foxx.”

 

Brett: “Serious?”

 

Christina: “Yes. Good luck, Brett.”

 

Brett just smiles a bit as we cut away.

Team Desire (Gigi & Katie Steward) vs. Daughters of Darkness (Sloan Sawyer & Diana Weston)

 

The arena goes dark. "Crowd Control" by Sumo Cyco then begins to blast through the arena, causing the fans to explode into boos and insults screamed from the rafters. White strobe lights flash across the stage rapidly, as the silhouettes of the Daughters of Darkness can be seen coming out from behind the curtain. Standing on the stage, the two remain nothing more than shadows against the bright lights behind them. With an explosion of pink and purple pyro, the lights in the arena turn on, showing Sloan Sawyer and Diana Weston standing at the top of the ramp. Confident grins on their faces as they look out towards the booing crowd and they only seem more amused. Sloan elbows Diana lightly in the side and yells "Listen to that love, Di!", while Diana has already taken her first few steps down the ramp.

Phillips: “Introducing first, representing the magical city of Miami, Florida, the team of The Glitter Gladiator, The Saint of Sinners, The Herald of Heat, and The Princess of Perf; Sloan Sawyer! Her partner, The Madam of Mayhem, The Sadistic Saint, The Volatile Vixen, and The Princess of Progression; Diana Weston! Together, they are the duo known as The Sinister Sisters, The Mistresses of Mischief. Ladies and gentlemen, the Daughters of Darkness!”

As they make their way down, they march straight past the booing fans along the ramp. While the crowd shows no sign of letting up on them, the duo reach the end of the ramp and both sprint and slide in under the bottom rope. Heading towards the turnbuckles, the duo jump up look out at the crowd. Sloan calls for them to get louder as Diana just scans them with her eyes. Boos continue to shower down for them, and they jump back down to the canvas together. Walking towards the center of the ring, the duo stop and Sloan smirks at Diana, giving her a wink. Diana forms an X with her arms, while Sloan makes an O with hers, and pink and purple pyro goes off from each corner. Grinning as the crowd continues to boo loudly, the duo make their way towards their corner, awaiting the arrival of their opponents.

 

Sharper: “Daughters of Darkness making a clear statement to both Honour Code and to the Steward before the commercial break.”

 

Winters: “Time for them to rewrite a bit of history. They were stunned by the Stewards at the Tag Team Turmoil. Time for them to remind everyone what they can do.”


Fancy gold writing spreads across the screen.


“I'm not cocky
I just love myself
Bitch!”

The lights in the arena begin to dim, and at same time the whimsical voice of Katie Steward is heard giggling as “We Remain” by Christina Aguilera plays on the speaker system. Bright pink spot lights swirl around the arena as varies images of The Stewards are captured on the video screen. Gigi walks out on the stage dressed in her ring gear and wearing her Team Desire jacket. The hood of the jacket covers her head, and the pink embroidered “PRINCESS” stands out against the rest of her outfit. Gigi walks to the top of the stage and stops. She gets down on her knees and listens to the fans. Gigi raises her head removing the hoodie and cups her hands over her mouth letting out her own Goddess Scream and that signals to Katie Steward that it’s her time to enter the scene. Katie steps out from behind the curtain and joins Gigi on stage. Her long flowing pink ring jacket hugs her slim frame and the white boa feathers circle around and frames her gorgeous face. Katie stands on the center of the stage smiling and poses for the crowd as her tiara sparkles and glitters like gold from the spotlights. Katie walks over to Gigi who stands up on her feet. The Steward girls share a hug and continue to make their way towards the ring. Maddy Steward, holding a clutch, walks out too and she hugs both as well as Katie turns to Gigi. Gigi says something to her.

 

Phillips: “And their opponents, they are accompanied by Maddy Steward, they are from Los Angeles, California, they are the Goddess of Desire, Katie Steward, and Wrestling’s Princess, Gigi Steward, Team Desire!”

When they get to the bottom of the ramp and go their separate ways. Gigi walks around the ring. Katie pulls herself up on the apron and as she stands up she flips her hair long blonde back. Her tiara of course stays perfectly on her head as she slides between the top and middle ropes and she joins Gigi in the middle of the ring. Maddy walks around the ring to the Steward corner. They take off their coats and tiara and hands them over to the official at ringside, then they proceed to warm up getting ready for their match.

 

Sharper: “You seem to think Daughters of Darkness have the edge.”

 

Winters: “I’m just not going to vote against them. Also shouldn’t vote against Katie. I know how that goes.”

 

Sharper: “So?”

 

Winters: “Uh, I’ll take a push. Both will just fall down, the world will celebrate the greatest contest ever.”

 

Sharper: “Uh-huh. You’re getting as bad as Knots.”

 

The bell sounds. Gigi starts off as Sloan looks at her. Katie exits as does Diana. Sloan starts to dare Gigi to come at her. They head towards one another and grapple in the middle of the ring. Sloan then hits a leg trip. Gigi hits the mat. Sloan runs into the ropes. She bounces off and Gigi rolls towards Sloan. Sloan hops over. She bounces off the other side. Gigi leapfrogs over. Sloan ducks and stops. Gigi turns and Sloan hits a hip toss. Gigi hits the mat and Sloan hits an arm drag. Gigi rolls through and Sloan kicks her in the ribs and wrenches the arm. She turns and tags in Diana. Diana enters the ring and drives her elbow into the shoulder of Gigi. Gigi winces and Diana grabs her and snapmares her over. Diana then elbows Gigi in the back of the head. She forces her down and goes for the pin.

Gigi kicks out.

 

Sharper: “Diana and Sloan doing what they do. Controlling the pace and isolating Gigi.”

 

Winters: “Not a bad move. Keep the most experienced out of the ring. Keep Katie on the outside. And she’s also not the most patient.”

 

Diana grabs Gigi and lifts her up. Diana wrenches the arm and elbows her again. She turns and tags in Sloan. Sloan enters the ring and kicks Gigi. Sloan then pushes her to the neutral corner and whips her across to the opposite corner. Sloan runs after and Sloan gets caught by a Gigi elbow. Sloan staggers out and Gigi climbs up to the middle rope and dives forward with a clothesline. Sloan hits the mat and rolls over. Gigi gets up and grabs Sloan and scoops her up and slams her down. She then turns and tags in Katie. Katie enters the ring. Sloan gets up and Katie hits a dropkick. Sloan hits the mat. Diana starts to enter and Katie runs over and dropkicks her down. She falls to the floor. Sloan gets back up and Katie runs over and kicks her in the ribs and hits a vertical suplex.

 

Sharper: “Katie in and doing a good job of keeping Diana at bay. Then the suplex.”

 

Winters: “She’s fresh too. She’s motivated.”

 

Sharper: “Katie Steward knows. She’s never held the Tag Titles. A win over DoD, especially another one, helps her case.”

 

Sloan rolls over and stirs. Katie grabs her and lifts her up. She then whips her into the ropes. Sloan bounces off and Katie hits a spinning heel kick. Sloan hits the mat. Katie goes for the pin.

Katie gets her shoulder up. Gigi starts to get up and Maddy walks around the ring. Sloan backs up and is forced out of the ring. Katie rolls over and Maddy hands her something out of her clutch. Sloan keeps trying to get out as Diana recovers herself and turns back to Katie. She kicks at Maddy.

 

Sharper: “Katie slowly getting up. I think Maddy Steward gave her something.”

 

Winters: “Looks like it. Diana didn’t see it. Turned the other way. Sloan taking her sweet time out of the ring.”

 

Maddy backs up. Diana then turns and grabs Katie as Sloan exits the ring. Katie then suddenly nails Diana in the jaw. Katie throws the item back and Maddy quickly grabs it and turns before putting it into her clutch.

 

Sharper: “What the hell was that?”

 

Winters: “I don’t know. Maddy has good hands!”

 

Sharper: “Diana’s out though! Ref didn’t see it. I don’t think Sloan did too!”

 

Katie goes for the pin. The referee turns.

The crowd roars. Sloan enters a bit stunned as Katie rolls out of the ring and to the floor. Gigi smiles and joins her.

 

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, Katie Steward and Gigi Steward, Team Desire!”

 

Diana turns, holding her jaw. A small cut is on her chin too from the shot as she winces. Sloan heads over to her, looking around stunned. Katie walks around the ring with Gigi and Maddy. The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “I don’t know what she hit her with.”

 

Winters: “Cut Diana a bit.”

 

Sharper: “Do we have a look here?”

 

REPLAY:

We open up to see Maddy handing Katie something. Diana turns around and grabs Katie and Katie nails her. We see Katie tossing the item back to Maddy. Maddy takes it and puts it in her clutch. The Breakdown logo comes up again. We see a slow motion shot of Katie turning and nailing Diana. Diana falls to the mat. She throws a pink circular item back and we see the item in the air for a couple of seconds. Maddy grabs it.

 

Winters: “Was that a make-up mirror or something? I saw pink.”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know, but it’s in that clutch that Maddy has. Maddy Steward returning on the final Breakdown of the year and she’s already paying dividends tonight. Team Desire has two consecutive pinfalls over the Daughters of Darkness!”

 

Sloan looks around stunned as Diana holds her jaw in pain. The Stewards head to the back celebrating.

We open up backstage to see AJ Helms and Shaun Cruze at the backstage area outside of their locker room. Sprit Dansby stands with them.

 

Spirit: “I am here with Honour Code and AJ, Shaun, you heard DoD’s comments before the match. They just lost to the Stewards, but I’m sure you have something to say about it.”

 

Shaun: “AJ….I’ll leave this one to you.”

 

AJ: “You want to attack us just so you can have some fun at my expense. Lexi von Aaron is not sane and you then attack me, tie me up and roll me to the ring so I am nearly forced to go through with that farce. That’s not professional wrestling. That’s going too far and you want to just make enemy. You say we owe you a match. No…we owe you an ass kicking and-“

 

Cruze: “I’ll take it from here, AJ…”

 

Cruze turns to Spirit.

 

Cruze: “We’re not hard to find and given everything you’ve done with Autumn and Gable and now us…we’re happy to give you a match and show you that your crap doesn’t fly here and-“

 

Lexi: “AJ! AJ!”

 

We then see Lexi von Aaron wrapped up in bandages and using crutches as her leg is taped up.

 

Lexi: “AJ! I forgive you! I know it was just Scarlett that used you to hurt me, but you never would!”

 

AJ: “Get the hell away from me you crazy girl!”

 

Lexi: “Don’t worry. I’m here. Now,  you can nurse me back to health from my injuries in Toronto. Come on. I know the perfect place-“

 

We then see security guards coming over and getting in between AJ Helms and Lexi von Aaron.

 

Lexi: “Hey…AJ! Stop them! AJ! I’m here for you to tend to my wounds! My wounds!”

 

Cruze then grabs AJ and they move back into their locker room. The security guards keep Lexi away as she falls over and starts to yell on the floor. The scene cuts to commercial.

Breakdown returns as we pan around the arena.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown-“

 

Winters: “Class has arrived!”

 

We cut to one of the luxury boxes in the Bridgestone Arena to see Blake Mason walking into the room. He turns back as Bree Lancaster walks up into the room too and grabs Blake’s arm. They then walk over to the front of the luxury box to the seats in front. Scott Burnside also walks in and can be seen talking to one of the service people in the room.

 

Sharper: “Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster finally making their first public appearance.”

 

Winters: “Notice something different.”

 

Sharper: “The rock on Bree’s finger for one.”

 

We cut to get a shot of Bree’s finger which shows a diamond ring.

 

Sharper: “The two getting engaged over the New Year. They’ve now, to celebrate, Blake has rented out that luxury box. Neither booked to compete.”

 

Winters: “Many who want their hands on them. Not going to happen!”

 

Sharper: “I’m sure we’ll get a comment from them soon enough.”

 

Bree and Blake sit down as the crowd boos them. Blake and Bree ignore the crowd as we cut away.

We open up backstage in one of the locker rooms as we see Alex Drake, walking in wearing old school CHBK gear, with Mickie Road. She looks over as Alex storms across and heads over to Shane Lawson, who is talking to Donovan Kayl backstage.

 

Drake: “Hey!”

 

Lawson turns. Kayl just looks at Drake unamused.

 

Lawson: “In normal parlance, people say hello.”

 

Drake: “Not after what you did. Do you know who I am? I’m the Canadian Heartbreak Kid. I’m a bigger legend than both of you standing in front of me.”

 

Kayl: “You serious?”

 

Drake: “Don’t get uppity because you had to tap out my imposter to be relevant. Lawson, let me tell you something about here….there is one rule. You don’t mess with the man who is the most important man in the business.”

 

Lawson: “Are you serious?”

 

Road: “Looks like he doesn’t get the hint.”

 

Drake then suddenly kicks Lawson in the ribs. He grabs him and Kayl gets involved, but Mickie Road then nails him in the head with her purse. Kayl is dazed and is knocked over as Drake kicks Lawson in the ribs and then again and again before grabbing him and running him into a concrete wall. Lawson falls over and we see officials running in and stopping Drake before he can do any more. Road pulls him back as Drake turns to Lawson.

 

Drake: “Remember…Icons come and go, Legends can be forgotten…a heartbreak lasts forever!”

 

The crowd boos as Drake is pulled out of the locker room. Kayl gets up and looks at him as we cut away.

We then open up to the ring to see Jake Starr in the ring and sitting on his steel chair in the middle of the ring, microphone in his hand.

 

Sharper: “Drake’s attitude is off the page.”

 

Winters: “CHBK he is not. But now we have another attitude in the ring.”

 

Sharper: “Jake Starr coming out and he’s not pleased. We did find out he would face Rachel Foxx and Brett Sinclaire next week on this program.”

 

Starr looks around.

 

Starr: “Don’t worry. Don’t adjust your screen. Your Only Social Misfit Remaining is here. And I have mic time. And I have decent mic time. But that’s fine. Everyone is running around talking about the year of Selena Frost…or how Tyler Tucker is going to get it done this year in the tourney or even how Angelica Jones beat the hell out of me, but she wasn’t the one locked up in a flower truck.”

 

Starr smirks.

 

Starr: “I’m done with her anyway. I walked away, she didn’t.”

 

Sharper: “Barely.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Starr: “But apparently, I have a bit of familiar and unfamiliar next week. Rachel, we know each other well. Apparently SCW thinks you’re looking to aim for a title. Well good on you. And Brett, we can’t go two weeks without you getting all lovey-dovey about Bree in whatever your pathetic issue is there and how you want the TV Title over and over again. Well, get on you. Both of you are going to be disappointed. This may come to no shock, but I want the World Title. I want to remind everyone what I can do. And I’m sick of people looking over me. That doesn’t make me happy. And yeah, I’ve used the chair to make the point.”

 

Starr then stands up. He kicks the chair out of the ring.

 

Starr: “People had an issue with me using the chair. Well maybe I’ll just make things a bit simpler…I’ll just embarrass you by outwrestling you. I am a sure-fire Hall of Famer. I am one of the best wrestlers in SCW history and some people have a problem with that. Well, they can kiss my ass when I get back to the World Title and remind everyone that I only do one thing….Take what’s mine.”

 

Starr throws the mic down. His music plays as he turns and walks out of the ring. He drops down to the floor. He then starts to head to the back as the crowd boos him.

 

Winters: “Short, sweet and to the point.”

 

Sharper: “I will say this. Jake Starr wants to get respect. He may have a way of getting it. But SCW is not what it once was. He better step up or else, we could be seeing his last gasps.”

 

Winters: “Either way…it will be fun to watch.”

 

Starr continues to head to the back as the crowd boos.

Breakdown opens up at the SCW interview area. We see Jessica Winters standing by with Kelcey Wallace and Shawn Mason as the crowd cheers.

 

Jessica: “I am here with Kelcey Wallace and Shawn Mason and we’ve seen Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster arrive. They are in one of the luxury boxes here in the Bridgestone Arena. They will be watching your match. But meanwhile, you’re facing Damian Angel, someone who has his own violent history, perhaps in preparation for your own intense contest with Blake at Hazardous Envy.”

 

Kelcey turns to Jessica.

 

Kelcey: “I have no illusions about what I am up against. This is someone who threatened to end the career of Sienna Swann and that’s why Laura Steinbeck is backstage trying to get her out of her contract. This is someone that threatened Selena Frost just because he could and it sounds like he’s got a piledriver waiting for me. Meanwhile, with all of that, he still continues to duck the many challenges that all the people he’s pissed off, Shuan Cruze…Shawn Mason…all of us make.”

 

Kelcey pauses for a moment.

 

Kelcey: “And that’s why I’m happy to have this match with Damian Angel. Some people would think I’m a fool for saying that, but we all know Damian Angel’s track record. We recall what he did to CHBK, to Greg Cherry, to other legends of this sport. He has no remorse. And he won’t have any tonight, I know that. And I will show him, and Blake, who has his bird’s eye view, that he will not be able to defeat Perfection. He will not get anything more over me.”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Kelcey: “So Blake, watch and get prepared, because this isn’t the only thing I have for you. I have another surprise and even Bree may want to keep her ears open for this one.”

 

Jessica: “Thank you Kelcey. Good luck tonight.”

 

Shawn and Kelcey then turn and walk off. “Immortals” starts to play in the background.

 

Sharper: “Kelcey Wallace faces off against Damian Angel, next, here on Breakdown!”

 

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Kelcey Wallace vs. Damian Angel

 

Kelcey’s voice begins to speak….

“Perfection doesn’t mean executing the Perfect action in a Perfect World but the appropriate actions in an Imperfect one. You have never truly believed in a notion that so many deemed it just simply doesn’t exist. As you continue struggling in your life wondering what failure comes next all I ask that you do is look upon me, the woman that has always claimed her Perfection. It is not a myth, it is a way of life, for you the cries of reality echo through the halls of this company….

But the truth knows your limitations, I have known for you see, while you were born to be real?

I was born to be Perfect.”

The lights in the arena go out. The trumpets sound as the chorus for “Exodus” by Ernest Gold & Henry Mancini begins to as the crowd roars and some boo. Kelcey Wallace steps out from the back covered in a gorgeous white and gold cape with a hood. Shawn Mason walks out with her.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, accompanied by Shawn Mason, from Hermosa Beach, California, she is Kelcey Wallace!”


Spreading her arms and unhooding herself revealing her perfect face with makeup and her hair slicked back in a ponytail, the camera flashes light up the arena when she then then drops her cape showing off her Perfect physique in new white and gold trim vinyl short tights with the cut off top and only her right arm sleeved, knee pads and boots with shin guards and “Perfection” written on her buttocks. She poses for a few moments while the crowd cheers.

 

We then cut to the luxury box to see Spirit Dansby standing by with Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster.

 

Spirit: “Sorry to interrupt your viewing-“

 

Blake: “Not to worry at all. How is Sienna doing?”

 

Spirit just looks at Blake as Blake smiles.

 

Bree: “Ask your question dear. We won’t hold your company against you.”

 

Spirit turns to Bree briefly before turning to Blake. She gathers herself

 

Spirit: “Well you had to have heard Kelcey’s comments.”

 

Blake: “I did and I’ve love to see what pathetic surprise she has. But I did notice one thing she said…that’s we’re ducking these challenges. We merely did not want to embarrass people, but if she wants us to step up, we don’t run, nor hide and well, thinking about how has an issue with us…well, we’d take on Shawn, but after we embarrass him, who would think for Kelcey.”

 

Spirit just looks at Blake disgusted.

 

Blake: “And Selena has bigger fish to fry…so I guess that leaves us with Shaun Cruze and AJ Helms.”

 

Spirit: “But AJ is facing Ace Marshall in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament.”

 

Blake: “Then let’s find out where his priorities lie. Then again, he could hook up with Lexi tonight. Poor girl.”

 

Bree smirks as Spirit just backs off.


We cut back to the ring to see Kelcey Wallace in the ring and Shawn Mason in her corner.

Sharper: “Now he’s making a challenge to Honour Code? After they’ve made clear their anger towards DoD!”

 

Winters: “Pick your battles. That’s what Blake just said!”

 

Sharper: “Give me a break. Ace Marshall also to face AJ Helms later. That may be up in the air.”

 

Winters: “Classy move though. Gives them time to think.”

 

The opening lines of The Rasmus' "Lucifer's Angel" begin to play over the crowd suddenly, without the introduction of the song. Damian Angel steps out onto the top of the ramp , inciting boos from the crowd. He looks at the crowd.

 

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Hell, Michigan, he is Damian Angel!”

The lights in the arena all turn off, leaving the sight of pitch black. As the chorus strikes up, a red spotlight begins to follow Angel to the ring. He begins his approach to the ring. Upon reaching the ring, Angel rolls into the ring and rolls to the center of the ring, pulling himself to one knee. Damian runs his hand over the canvas before pounding his right fist down upon the SCW logo, immediately springing to his feet thereafter. Damian unfastens the clasps of his rope, letting it drop down to the mat behind him. He glares out over the crowd. Angel climbs onto the middle rope and outstretches his arms, bringing them together in an 'X' formation as he looks down towards the pits of hell. He repeats this process on the other three sides of the ring, and after the last one he hops off the turnbuckle.

 

Sharper: “Damian Angel, a former World Champion, he is known for his brutality as Kelcey noted.”

 

Winters: “Also, good on Blake. Kelcey doesn’t even know of Blake’s comments. Allowing her to keep her focus. What a guy.”

 

Sharper: “Uh-huh…”

 

The bell sounds. Damian looks at Kelcey. Kelcey stretches out. She walks out and Damian smirks as Kelcey watches and Damian then moves in and Kelcey goes for a kick. Damian catches it and forearms Kelcey. He chops Kelcey. The crowd woos. Damian chops him again. Kelcey falls to the ropes. Damian then whips Kelcey across the ring. Kelcey bounces off and Damian hits a double cross chop to the jaw. Kelcey hits the mat. Damian stomps her in the face and then again and again. Kelcey rolls over to the apron and down to the floor. Damian walks around as Kelcey takes a moment and looks in.

 

Sharper: “Damian coming out strong. Kelcey caught off-guard.”

 

Winters: “And he knows how to immediately cause damage. That’s the thing. Every shot hits hard.”

 

Damian backs up and watches Kelcey. Kelcey hops onto the apron and looks in. The crowd boos a bit as Kelcey slowly enters into the ring. Damian then waits as Kelcey gets in. Kelcey steps forward and Damian runs over and spins around her. He clubs her in the back and then again. Damian spins Kelcey out and kicks her in the ribs. Damian hits a snap suplex. He goes for the pin.

Kelcey kicks out. Kelcey turns and Damian grabs her and locks her in a reverse chinlock. He pulls back. Kelcey looks out. The crowd boos as Damian looks around and Kelcey starts to turn and get her knees under her. Damian holds on and Kelcey elbows him in the ribs. She elbows him again and then hits a snapmare. Damian rolls over and turns and Kelcey jumps up and hits a dropkick. Damian hits the mat.

 

Sharper: “Kelcey fights out. Dropkick to the jaw. Damian down.”

 

Winters: “But only for a moment. Damian getting up.”

 

Damian gets up and turns and Kelcey kicks Damian in the ribs before Kelcey forearms Damian. She then snapmares him again before she runs into the ropes and bounces off and hits a neck whip. Kelcey rolls through. Damian rolls over and starts to get up. Kelcey grabs him from behind and hits the Pretty Girl Drop. The crowd ohs. Kelcey hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Damian kicks out. Kelcey starts to get up. Damian turns and Kelcey grabs him and drags him over to the corner and drives him face first into the corner. Kelcey then chops him. The crowd woos. She chops him again. More woos. She then kicks him in the ribs before pulling him out. She goes for the Perfect Ten-Plex, but Damian blocks it. He nails her in the ribs and then again before hoisting her up and dropping her forward with a front suplex. She pops up and Damian grabs the head and spins down into the Snap Bulldog. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Trademark bulldog by Damian Angel.”

 

Winters: “And Kelcey dropped right on her face. Blake and Bree have to love that.”

 

We cut up to see Blake and Bree in the luxury box watching as Damian moves Kelcey into position. Damian turns and exits to the apron. He then climbs up to the top rope. Kelcey remains down for a moment as Damian gets to the top rope and Kelcey suddenly gets up and nails Damian in the ribs. She nails him again before climbing up to the middle rope. She grabs Damian and hooks him up. The crowd roars as Kelcey then throws Damian back with a superplex from the middle rope. Kelcey and Damian crash to the mat. Damian winces and Kelcey stirs and slowly gets up. Damian rolls over and holds his back. He staggers up to his feet and turns around and Kelcey runs into the ropes, bounces off and nails him with the Perfect Ending. The crowd roars. Kelcey drops down and hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The bell sounds.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Kelcey Wallace!”

 

Kelcey rolls off and gets up. Shawn Mason walks up the steel steps and enters into the ring. We then cut to the luxury box to see Bree and Blake just watching. Blake politely claps.

 

Sharper: “Kelcey Wallace with the victory! The Perfect Ending drops Damian Angel.”

 

Winters: “Blake giving his thoughts.”

 

Sharper: “Yeah. A polite applause. He knows that could be in his future.”

 

Winters: “Along with whatever else Kelcey has for him. Guess we’re not finding out now.”

 

Kelcey Wallace has her arm raised as Shawn enters and also raises her arm. The crowd cheers as we cut to a panning shot of the arena and the crowd.

 

Sharper: “Kelcey Wallace successful tonight. Next, Jonathan Knots joins me and much more Breakdown here as SCW kicks off 2017!”

 

“Immortals” starts to play as the camera continues to pan around the arena before it fades to black.

This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping Rachel Foxx with the Catnap inside Tactical Warfare before showing Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster posing, followed by a shot of Tyler Tucker going for the Caffeine Crash before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen. 

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

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Nashville here for Breakdown. Jonathan Knots has now joined me here at ringside. Plenty to come tonight-“

 

Knots: “Yeah. We’re going to see Honour Code get their asses kicked!”

 

Sharper: “Maybe. We have to hear from them. Ace Marshall was supposed to face AJ tonight in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. We also have Cassidy Carter facing Kennedy Street for the TV Title.”

 

Knots: “And kicking her ass”!

 

Sharper: “And much more-“

 

We cut to the entrance way to see Syren walking down the rampway. The crowd cheers seeing her. She heads down the rampway to the ringside area and then walks up the steel steps. She walks across the ring and asks for a microphone.

 

Sharper: “Syren coming down to the ring. Obviously heard about what PUNK HAZARD did to Autumn Valentine earlier.”

 

Knots: “Well go to war with PUNK HAZARD. Let’s see how that goes, huh?”

 

Syren waits a moment and is handed a microphone. She takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring.

 

Syren: “You want to try and make this personal, Alexis. You want to go after friends of mine just because you need to pump yourself up. If you want to just start having a fight, we can make this nice and simple. We already have the match set for Hazardous Envy, but we can just have you come out here now!”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Syren: “Spray paint Autumn’s back yellow. Claim she’s a coward. For what? A message to me? Claim that I’m a coward. Well, Alexis, I’m standing right here, so bring out all of your groupies and your GANG and we can see about all of that!”

 

The crowd roars. Syren looks around. A few moments pass before “Wrag 1.9 (The Princess Sisters Remix)” starts to play. The crowd boos. Syren looks around as she backs up.

 

Knots: “Be careful what you wish for!”

 

Syren waits as we then see Christy Matthews walk out from the back, holding the SCW Adrenaline Championship over her shoulder. She just smiles as she starts to walk down to the ring by herself. Syren looks at her, watching her, before looking around as Christy Matthews walks down the rampway to the ring. She reaches the ring and steps up the steel steps before entering the ring.

 

Sharper: “Syren called out Alexis Quinne and PUNK HAZARD. She is just getting Christy Matthews.”

 

Knots: “They know each other well.”

 

Sharper: “And we should note that next week on this program, Dark Fantasy will team up against Christy Matthews and Alexis Quinne in a huge main event, from Birmingham, Alabama, when Breakdown comes to you live from the Legacy Arena.”

 

Christy Matthews steps forward and looks at Syren and smiles before walking across to the ropes and being handed a microphone by Jason Phillips. She takes it and turns back to Syren. Syren continues to look around as Christy steps over to her.

 

Christy: “What? Expecting someone else?”

 

Syren just looks at her.

 

Christy: “You said her “gang” could come out here. Maybe they felt that only I was needed. That would probably hurt your feelings, wouldn’t it?”

 

Syren: “After what Alexis said earlier, something tells me that she’s not up for just sitting back there and letting you do the dirty work.”

 

Christy: “And you’d be wrong, but also, I’m out here for one simple reason…I know you better than any of them. And I know another thing. See, Syren, it took you what? Forty minutes before you finally came out here. And I know you. If this was a sudden tantrum by you, you’d have been out here before the Daughters of Darkness were able to turn out the lights. You’d have been demanding Quinne then, so Syren….where’s Ravyn? Where’s the trap…”

 

Christy turns and walks over to the ropes. She steps down to the floor. She looks underneath.

 

Christy: “She under the ring?”

 

Christy looks up.

 

Christy: “I can keep walking around. At some point, you’ll get angry. Maybe attack me, but that wouldn’t be the moral high ground you’re on now, right?”

 

Syren: “Christy-“

 

Christy: “No…tell me I’m wrong?”

 

Christy hops onto the apron. She enters the ring. She walks over to Syren.

 

Christy: “I’ve played these games with many others. Current World Champ for one. Shilo another. Oh yeah, and I did it in your service years ago. The wars with CHBK before he joined us, with Jake, with Helms, with whoever else. Order of Chaos having to take a second fiddle to you while Dark Fantasy racked up the accolades.”

 

Syren: “Ravyn Taylor isn’t coming out. This is between myself and Alexis. I just figured she’d not be able to come out alone. That’s not how PUNK HAZARD operates.”

 

Christy: “You’re right. They’re a unit. You call them a gang. Were we a gang as Infamous? Pinnacle? I suppose not.”

 

Christy turns her back to Syren as she ruminates on the subject.

 

Christy: “But Syren, the thing is, you’re right, Ravyn Taylor won’t be coming out here. And next week, when Alexis and I face you, Dark Fantasy may be on paper the stronger team, but there’s something we should all note….people have started to catch up. Another fatal fourway loss. Regan Street getting involved for the title. Selena still won it on her own. I even told Alexis to look out for it. You actually going to stand here and lie to the world that you’re okay with that. Have to wait in line-“

 

Syren: “You know damn well how I feel and the fact that Regan Street is next in line, that makes me sick, but I’m not going to come out here and say Selena doesn’t deserve to be champion. I just wish it was against me instead of Alexis.”

 

Christy: “One day you’ll get the chance. But I wasn’t done. People have started to also catch up to Ravyn. I mean, really, she’s playing with a novice in Selena. Someone who talks about sunshine and rainbows and treats her fans as children. Yay true believers…and she thinks like one too, thinking she can be happy and good and all will care. You’re not that pathetic…but Ravyn yet is messing with her. Needing to choke her out to just avoid getting beaten on Selena’s terms. And tonight…”

 

Christy looks up at the big screen. Syren notices this and turns her body to watch Christy too before looking at the big screen. We then see a shot of the outside of the Dark Fantasy locker room. We then hear yelling and banging before Syren looks a bit confused before suddenly Christy spins her around and kicks her in the ribs and hits the Happily Never After. The crowd boos. Christy rolls over. We then see Alexis Quinne hopping over the barricade with a bag over her shoulder. We cut back to the backstage area to see El Rudo yelling in the camera as they shoves the cameraman over. We then see Grundy extending his arm with a can of spray paint. Back in the ring we see Christy holding Syren up as Quinne reaches into the bag and pulls out two cans of spray paint. She then shakes one and turns before starting to spray it into the face of Syren. Syren turns away, but Christy holds her up and Quinne starts to cover her eyes and face in black spray paint. The crowd boos as Syren struggles.

 

Sharper: “Quinne coming from the crowd. Rudo and Grundy outside of Dark Fantasy’s locker room!”

 

Knots: “And look! They’re spray painting her eyes. Her face!”

 

Christy holds the microphone up for Quinne as Quinne yells at Syren.

 

Quinne: “You see nothing. Nothing coming! Nothing at all. This isn’t like in the past. We run the show. And you saw none of this coming. Dark Fantasy…all that’s dark is the darkness you live in, as everything passes you by and had you just stopped Regan. That’s all you’d do, and you’d be losing to me again as champion in three weeks!”

 

Quinne sprays Syren’s face again. She falls over as Christy pulls away. She then places her knee on the back of Syren’s head as Quinne grabs the other can. She then walks over to the microphone again.

 

Quinne: “If you actually dealt with her instead standing back and waiting…well, Syren. Let me just make it easier for the world to see what you really are!”

 

Quinne then grabs Syren’s shirt and rips the back of it, pulling it away. Quinne then shakes the can of spray paint. Christy looks around, almost expecting someone else to come out, as Quinne then spray paints Syren’s back yellow, running it back and forth, a yellow streak down Syren’s back. Syren struggles a bit as Christy keeps her down.

 

Sharper: “Quinne is spraying painting a yellow streak down Syren’s back! Christy Matthews holding her down!”

 

Knots: “PUNK HAZARD with another message!”

 

Sharper: “Another gang attack. Rudo and Grundy backstage…And where is Ravyn? If Ravyn was laying in wait, where is she?”

 

Knots: “I don’t know! But PUNK HAZARD a step ahead. Thanks to Christy Matthews! She knows! And she may be right. Ravyn Taylor isn’t as crafty as she was! I love it! Her tricks are ending and Syren can call PUNK HAZARD out but she wasn’t ready for this!”

 

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine back. Gable I assume with her. Syren humiliated in the ring!”

 

Quinne pulls away and laughs as Christy gets up. Syren holds her face and rolls over, showing her face, covered in black paint and the mat covered in some black paint too, and some yellow paint. Christy then gets up and walks around as officials start to get to the ring and tell them to leave.

 

Sharper: “PUNK HAZARD with another success.”

 

Knots: “And Quinne blames Syren for what she didn’t do. And Quinne taking it to a new level.”

 

Sharper: “And next week, Christy Matthews and Alexis Quinne face Dark Fantasy on Breakdown.”

 

Knots: “If we can find Ravyn Taylor? Where the hell is she?”

 

Christy backs up as Quinne just continues to look at Syren and laugh. Syren winces and start sto move towards the ropes, rubbing her eyes. One official runs over with a bottle of water and tries to help Syren. The crowd boos as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We return to Breakdown and we open up with a shot of the door to the Dark Fantasy locker room. We have it covered in yellow paint and in red “Cowards” written on it. The crowd boos seeing this.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. There you see what El Rudo and Dante McCaffery did backstage while Quinne and Christy did this…”

 

Knots: “It was a group moment. PUNK HAZARD sending a message. No respect for Dark Fantasy.”

 

MOMENTS AGO:

We see Syren being held down by Christy Matthews as Alexis Quinne rips open the back of Syren’s shirt. Christy looks around as Quinne shakes another can of spray paint before spraying Syren’s back yellow. The crowd boos as Syren struggles for a few moments. Quinne pulls off. We then cut forward to see a slow-motion shot of Syren rolling over to the ropes, her back covered in yellow paint and her face covered in black paint.

 

We then cut to the ringside area to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots.

 

Sharper: “Syren has been taken backstage. Her eyes are being flushed. That’s the first concern.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and I hope she has a change of clothes.”

 

Sharper: “That’s the least of her worries. Her eyesight could be at risk thanks to that.”

 

Knots: “Quinne did say she was blind…and a coward.”

 

Sharper: “Well, and one other question, we now have an answer. Ravyn Taylor was actually in the crowd, presumably there to make sure the numbers were even if PUNK HAZARD came out en masse.”

 

Knots: “So a trap.”

 

Sharper just glares at Knots.

 

Knots: “What?”

 

Sharper: “We’ve been told that Ravyn Taylor was in the crowd and suddenly three fans attacked her. We have no footage of this at the moment. But fans should never attack a professional wrestler and she and security had to deal with that situation.”

 

Knots: “Guess she is a bad, bad girl.”

 

Sharper: “Something is off here. Security has the three fans in custody. This is an odd moment here. Fans have hopped the guardrail before, but never anything like this.”

 

Knots: “Well someone better have footage out there. I want to see these fans get the crap kicked out of them! Ha!”

The Sisterhood (Kayla & Angelica Jones) vs. Tainted Justice (Vixen Cain & Merrick Wiseman)

 

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

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

 

Phillips: “The following match is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, on their way to the ring, hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, they are Angelica Jones and Kayla Jones, they are the Sisterhood!”

Angelica and Kayla look into each other’s eyes, nod, and then turn and begin to make their way with a determined stride towards the ring, taking time to slap the hands of a few fans along the way. Kayla slides into the ring from underneath the bottom rope and then she hops up onto the second turnbuckle, facing the crowd, and raising both arms up high in the air. Angelica, meanwhile, takes a sharp turn to the right and the ascends the steel steps, making her way up to the ring apron. She strolls slowly to the center before turning towards the audience. She looks out intensely at the crowd before posing with both arms raised high into the air. Angelica steps into the ring, joining her sister in the center as they await the start of the match.

 

Sharper: “Sisterhood looking to start off the new year and work their way back into title contention. Kayla meanwhile getting married before 2016 ended. Congratulations to her.”

 

Knots: “Just stay away from her cooking. It involves a lot of teeth.”

 

Sharper: “Stop it.”

 

“Cold” by Remedy starts to play. The crowd starts to boo and as the lights all start to flicker in time with the music, a sudden spotlight suddenly emerges, showering the stage in light. Another one from a high angle shines down in the same spot, followed by another and there the camera sees a shower of golden sparks fall down from the heavens behind the man who stands with his side to the camera, smoking from his long cigarette holder, his head tilted up to the sky. Vixen Cain looks around and smirks. He then waits as Merrick Wiseman walks out with him and looks around. The crowd boos some more.

 

Phillips: “Their opponents, on their way to the ring, from Sanctuary, Texas, he is Merrick Wiseman and from Salem, Oregon, he is Vixen Cain. They are Tainted Justice!”

 

Vixen Cain slowly walks down to the ring as Wiseman follows a few feet behind. They make their way to the ring. Merrick runs up the steps and enters into the ring before going over to the corner and climbing up to the middle turnbuckle. Cain walks up the steps before sliding off his coat. He smirks, taking a puff of his cigarette before putting it down. Merrick gets up, taking off his trenchcoat and throwing his hat onto the ringpost.

 

Sharper: “We were wondering what Merrick Wiseman and Vixen Cain had planned. This is Vixen Cain’s first match in two months. They weren’t here on the final Breakdown of the year. And I hate to say it, that means they’ve usually got something planned.”

 

Knots: “All of your conspiracy theories. How about how Cain should be the US Champion? Now he’s not getting the shot. Amy gets to move on. And against Marie Jones! Sisterhood better look out! Cain and Wiseman may take it out on them. Same family!”

 

Sharper: “We shall see. Cain not revealing much. He is now cleared to compete. Wiseman, same thing.”

 

The bell sounds. Wiseman starts to match as Kayla does for the Sisterhood. They circle the ring and Kayla moves in and Wiseman forearms her in the jaw. Kayla winces and Wiseman forearms her again and then kicks her in the ribs. Wiseman pushes her into the ropes and fires her across. She bounces off and Wiseman goes for a clothesline.

Knots: “And Wiseman making sure he can start on the right foot!”

 

Cain enters and kicks Kayla in the ribs. Kayla staggers back. Cain hits a back chop and Kayla staggers back. Cain turns and whips her into the ropes. She bounces off and Cain hits a leg lariat. He follows up with a pin.

Knots: “Well he had that cancer scare. Come on!”

Sharper: “Angelica’s in! In Nashville, like a second home for her! And we saw her fire on the last Breakdown when she had her brawl with Jake Starr. Now she’s focused on Cain and Wiseman!”

 

Knots: “Wiseman…Cain…I hope you have a plan!”

Knots: “Calmly stopping her. Come on ref! Count!”

 

Merrick gets up in the ring and Angelica stirs on the floor. Cain backs away. Kayla drops down and walks around as Merrick gets up. Angelica walks around the ring and starts to go for Cain, clearly unhappy. Cain backs up and moves over to the steel chairs by the timekeeper’s table. Kayla is stopped by the official as Merrick starts to get up. Angelica heads after Cain. Cain grabs the chair and folds it up and turns, but Angelica grabs the chair and pulls it away.

Sharper: “Angelica pulled the chair away. Cain made sure it hit him and got the disqualification!”

 

Knots: “Brilliant!”

 

Sharper: “The referee didn’t see what led to it. Cain manipulating the situation. This can’t have been what they had in mind for their return.”

 

Knots: “But it works.”

 

Cain and Wiseman walk around the ring as Angelica moves back into the ring and goes over to the official. Kayla joins her and they argue with the official as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We return to Breakdown to see Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman walking through the backstage area. They head down one of the hallways and the cameraman watches them. Wiseman pushes the cameraman out of his view.

 

Wiseman: “Get lost!”

 

Wiseman and Cain continue to walk down the hallway. The cameraman follows as Cain and Wiseman walk into one room, just labelled office. They slam the door behind them as the cameraman just films the door for a moment before we cut to the ring.

Ikiro Yoshida (0 pts) vs. Christy Matthews (2 pts)

SCW Adrenaline Championship

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

 

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

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one-fall, has a ten minute time limit and is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament Match for the SCW Adrenaline Championship! First, the challenger, hailing from the Fukushima prefecture, Japan, Ikiro Yoshida!”

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

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

 

Sharper: “Yoshida has had his issues with PUNK HAZARD. Has an opportunity to make a big statement here if he can win the Adrenaline Championship from Christy Matthews?”

 

Knots: “After earlier, I think Yoshida should quake in his boots. They’re taking no prisoners.”

 

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

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

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

She walks down the rampway and heads to the ring. She reaches the ring before climbing the outside of the turnbuckles, standing on the middle rope, pulling down the hood of her jacket and striking the mock-crucifix pose once more. After a few moments, she leaps over the top rope and spins around in the ring, throwing her ring jacket to the outside and removing the SCW Adrenaline Championship from around her waist before collapsing to a seated position in the corner of the ring as the fans continue to boo. She continues ignoring their reaction, focusing her attention on the referee and on the title belt in her hands. The referee holds the title over his head as the SCW Adrenaline Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner.

 

Sharper: “Christy Matthews coming from the back instead of the crowd. Obviously PUNK HAZARD with a plan tonight of some sort.”

 

Knots: “Syren and Autumn Valentine humiliated. Dawn Lohan and Tommy Valentine unable to even find out to run out and help in both cases.”

 

Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor also attacked in the crowd and we’re told SCW has footage, fan footage of the incident. We will broadcast it, if only as a warning to our fans not to strike SCW wrestlers.”

 

Christy looks at Ikiro Yoshida. The bell sounds. Christy pulls herself up and Yoshida starts to head towards Christy. Christy then lunges and goes for the leg. Yoshida goes down and Christy kicks at the leg before kicking him again and then pulling back on the leg. Yoshida struggles and Christy gets to the ropes and places his foot on the bottom rope. She stomps Yoshida in the stomach before turning and jumping up to the middle rope and going to land on Yoshida, but Yoshida shoves Christy up and over the top rope to the floor. The crowd roars. Yoshida starts to get up, holding his knee as Christy turns and rolls into the ring. She runs at Yoshida and Yoshida turns and hits a dropkick. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Christy tried to cut the distance fast, but Yoshida caught her!”

 

Knots: “How did he know she was coming?!”

 

Yoshida gets up and Christy gets up and Yoshida hits a back chop to the jaw and then a kick to the ribs before pushing her into the corner. Yoshida chops Christy. He chops her again. Yoshida then grabs Christy and whips her across the ring. Christy hits the corner and staggers out and Yoshida catches her with a savate kick. The crowd ohs. Christy hits the mat.

Sharper: “Christy with the enziguri. Off the ropes. Calmly off the ropes.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. No need to go at a million miles per hour for this one. And Christy knows that.”

 

Yoshida starts to get up and Christy gets up and forearms him in the jaw and then again. She spins him around and hits a reverse DDT. She goes for the pin.

The crowd roars as Christy staggers back and falls down into the corner, into a seated position. Yoshida looks over and smiles as the crowd roars. He turns and reaches into his pockets and turns throws a set of die. He runs over to look at them and then stops as we see Grundy and El Rudo running out from the back. Rudo runs right to the ring and hops up onto the apron before McCaffery nails him with a boot. He falls off and down to the mat. Yoshida turns and runs over to Christy and goes for a running dropkick, but Christy moves out of the way. Yoshida slides and goes crotch first into the ringpost. The crowd ohs. Yoshida yells out in pain.

 

Sharper: “Oh no!”

 

Knots: “Ha! Don’t mess with PUNK HAZARD or you’ll lose more than you bargain for!”

 

Sharper: “Rudo with the distraction and Yoshida took too long. Christy happily lured him in for the miss!”

 

Knots: “And he didn’t miss. He hit everything right where it counted!”

 

Yoshida slowly pulls himself out of the corner as Rudo bangs on the mat. Grundy just remains with him. Yoshida gets up and turns to Christy who promptly kicks him in the ribs and hits the Happily Never After. The crowd boos. Just then, the crowd cheers as we see Tommy Valentine and Dawn Lohan running out from the back. Grundy turns and Tommy and Dawn both run over and clothesline them down. Grundy staggers back. Rudo turns and Tommy nails him with a forearm and Dawn kicks him in the ribs. Rudo staggers back. Dawn nails him again and Rudo staggers up the rampway.

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

 

Knots: “Yeah and now there’s a war in the rampway! PUNK HAZARD is called a gang! What was that?! A blindside attack!”

 

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine and Dawn Lohan unable to come out earlier to prevent PUNK HAZARD’s antics. They can here.”

 

Grundy staggers back as Tommy nails him. Dawn nails Rudo and Rudo nails her back. They continue to fight up the rampway, both duos, as Christy then rolls out of the ring. She looks around before turning and heading to the barricade. She hops over it and starts to head away from the ring via the crowd.

 

Sharper: “Christy Matthews isn’t going to help. She’s getting out of dodge!”

 

Knots: “Well why risk anything. Rudo and Grundy have this! Come on PUNK HAZARD!”

 

Sharper: “The fight is continuing on the rampway. Tommy and Grundy, Dawn and Rudo. Look out!”

 

Dawn nails Rudo as Rudo reaches up and rakes her eyes. He goes to the back as Dawn follows. Grundy then knees Tommy and runs after Dawn as Tommy staggers after them. We cut back to see Christy Matthews continuing through the crowd.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we open up outside of the building to see Tommy nailing Grundy with a couple of shots. Grundy knees him and grabs him and throws him down to the ground. Tommy gets up as security tries to get in between them. Dawn and Rudo are struggling with Dawn kneeing Rudo and knocking him back. As one of the security guards tries to get in her way, Rudo pops up and sucker punches her. They continue to battle.

 

Sharper: “The war continues backstage.”

 

Knots: “They’re in the parking lot. They hate each other!”

 

Sharper: “A wild night. Security trying to get them apart!”

 

We cut back to the ring.

Cassidy Carter vs. Kennedy Street

SCW Television Championship

 

The rifts to "Na na na" by My Chemical Romance begins to play throughout the arena as the spoken intro opens up. Strobe lights begin flashing between different shades of blue, green and red in rapid succession as Cassidy Carter steps out to cheers. Ace Marshall walks out with her. Cassidy smiles broadly while stepping in a rhythm around the stage to match the beat as her one woman rave show continues. She throws one arm up over her chest while thrusting the other to the side before bowing smugly before the masses.

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one-fall and has a twenty minute time limit and is for the SCW Television Championship! First, on her way to the ring, the challenger, accompanied by Ace Marshall, from Beverly Hills, California, she is the winner of the 2016 End of the Year Open Invitational, Cassidy Carter!”

She makes her way down the ramp, now in full spirits, not really focusing on anything. She reaches the apron before pulling herself up using the bottom rope for support. Ace Marshall follows her down to the ring. Standing along the apron, Cassidy raises her head up to the rafters while leaning fully into the top rope. She sways her hips seductively before flipping over the top rope, landing inside the ring before turning and throwing her arms up and walking toward the center of the ring, dancing a bit in a straight line to her own theme song. Her self-admiration and confidence continuing to be on full display. She raises her arms further up, now placing her hands on the back of her head before making her way to the corner. Stepping up onto the second rope she sits on the top turnbuckle before laying back across the top rope, propping her legs crossed casually over the other side. She appears to be becoming slightly impatient now in her comfortable spot waiting for this ordeal to begin and be over with. Ace Marshall walks around to her corner.

 

Sharper: “This is going to be a unique defense. Cassidy Carter making her first appearance in the ring on Breakdown in a wrestling capacity, at least in a long time. I can’t recall if she was ever in the ring years ago when she was part of Foxx Global.”

 

Knots: “Who cares? It’s going to be her last. Keenie is going to get revenge! Keenie is going to destroy that homewrecker!”

 

Ethan Von Aaron walks out in a black suit and shirt with no tie, he has a mic in hand as the spotlight shines on him....

Ethan: “Ladies and Gentlemen, I do use the term rather loosely. Let me direct your attention to the most beautiful and talented woman on the planet. She IS the Star of Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. The woman that is the ONLY Sexy Flawless Diva in ALL of professional wrestling, I give to you in all of her glory.....KENNEDY STREET!”

"Criticize” by Adelita’s Way plays throughout the arena as a robed Kennedy Street slowly comes out from the back. She stands in the entrance way, looking down, then up and out into the arena. Kennedy then drops the rope showing off her beautiful body in her wrestling gear that leaves little to the imagination. The SCW Television Championship is around her waist.

Kennedy cracks a sexy smirk as Ethan Von Aaron claps, she raises her right arm in the air looking up into the rafters as the shower of fireworks rain down behind her. Kennedy walks on while the monstrous Maximilian follows behind. The crowd cheers her a bit as she looks over to them. Ethan leads her down to the ring as she arrives at the apron, Maximilian lifts her up on the apron. Keenie walks on as she steps through the ropes stopping for a second and looks out biting the bottom of her lip and stroking the ropes as she gets into the ring taking her time. She then stops and looks across at Cassidy Carter who arrogantly waves. Kennedy takes her TV title off around her waist and hands it off. Ace and Kennedy look eyes as Ethan snaps at Ace from across the ring.

 

Sharper: “In many ways this may be a good test to see how far Kennedy has come. Does she just want to make a statement or does she want the win.”

 

Knots: “Both!”

 

Sharper: “Well if she really wants the former, she has the numbers…We know they don’t like each other.”

The referee raises the championship over his head as the SCW Television Championship logo comes across the screen and fades to the bottom corner. Kennedy looks at Cassidy as Cassidy gets ready too. The referee hands off the title. The bell sounds. Cassidy and Kennedy look at one another and they then watch one another before both rush at one another and nails each other with a forearm. Both stagger back before turning back and nailing each other with another forearm and then another and another. Cassidy starts to get the advantage and nails Kennedy with a hard right and then another and another. The crowd roars as Kennedy falls back to the corner. She shoulders Kennedy in the ribs and then again and again. She grabs Kennedy and whips her across the ring. Kennedy hits the corner. Cassidy runs after and Kennedy gets her boot up. Cassidy staggers back. Kennedy runs out and clotheslines Cassidy down.

 

Sharper: “And a high-impact start to this one. Kennedy may have the more finesse, but Cassidy knows how to scrap and she is an accomplished wrestler. Let’s be fair here. Former Television Champion in GCW.”

 

Knots: “Great. She’s not Kennedy Street!”

 

Cassidy gets up and Kennedy grabs her and kicks her in the ribs. Kennedy then hoist her up and hits a vertical suplex. Cassidy winces. Kennedy forces her down and goes for the pin.

Sharper: “A tense staredown as Cassidy knew she could’ve done much more damage there.”

 

Knots: “She was thinking about it. We all know it. She’s a horrible person!”

 

Sharper: “Cassidy didn’t though. Kennedy knew Cassidy could’ve locked in the hold. Possible injured Kennedy’s arm.”

 

Knots: “But look! Here she comes! Look out Kennedy!”

Ethan starts to plead with Kennedy. Kennedy tells him to go. The crowd cheers as Ethan looks around before turning and storming off to the back. Kennedy watches him go for a few moments before Kennedy turns around and Cassidy jumps up and hits a hurricanrana into a pin.

Spirit: “I am here with Shilo Valiant, the man who is looking to run the table in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament and has said that he will retire if he does not win the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament.”

Spirit: “Tonight you have the impressive and high-flying Jinn-“

 

Shilo: “That’s great. You know what I’d rather talk about?”

 

Spirit: “What?”

 

Shilo: “The End of the Year Special. Did you see me once on that show?”

 

Spirit: “Ah…”

 

Shilo: “The epitome of Entertainment? No…I’ll help you. You didn’t. See, you didn’t see me anywhere and it’s only more of the fact that people don’t realize what they have until I’m gone. And I’ll help you out further. Without me there, that show sucked. It was in my HOMETOWN and it sucked. But that’s fine. That’s how they want to do it, then they may have their wish in a little while. I may be gone.”

 

Shilo smirks and chuckles to himself a bit.

 

Shilo: “Please…It won’t happen. This tournament will be mine. And whoever holds the Adrenaline Championship at the end. I hope you’re ready to lose it to me. And then SCW can figure out what entertainment means to them.”

 

Shilo turns and walks off. Spirit watches him leave.

 

Spirit: “Shilo Valiant faces Jinn later tonight in the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament.”

 

We then cut back to the arena as the cameras pan across the crowd.

 

Sharper: “And much more to come. Breakdown continues after this!”

 

The scene fades to black.

Kara Abheri (0 pts) vs. Eli D’Angelo (0 pts)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

 

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

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a ten minute time limit and is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament Match. First, on her way to the ring, from Penrith, New South Wales, she is Kara Abheri!”

Kara circles the ring, greeting as many fans as she can before bouncing up onto the apron. She enters through the bottom and middle ropes and then ascends the turnbuckles, waving to the crowd. As the cheers get louder, Kara backflips off the turnbuckle and lands a few feet from centre-ring. She bows to her fans and the words "Thank you" can be read on her lips.The tiger's roar is played one last time as the music fades out.

 

Sharper: “Kara Abheri had an impressive showing in the End of the Year Open Invitational. She wasn’t successful, but she’s hoping she can start her 2017 with a win.”

 

Knots: “Easier said than done, Sharper. She’s got to deal with Eli D’Angelo. Biggest guy in here.”

 

Sharper: “He came in to spread his message to as many as possible and Kara is amongst those in his way.”

 

The lights drop as "The Left Side" by The Music begins to play. Eli D'Angelo emerges from the back with a solemn and somber look upon his face, his eyes cold and fixed upon the path ahead. A lantern is held within his outstretched grasp to light the way in the dark, taking his time walking across the stage and onto the ramp before him.

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

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

 

Sharper: “Eli D’Angelo, the most unique man in this tournament for my money.”

 

Knots: “Just because he’s different. Has his own compound.”

 

Sharper: “Those are just some of the reasons.”

 

The bell sounds. Eli stalks Kara a bit as she backs up and Eli then lunges and Kara ducks a clothesline. Eli turns around and Kara kicks him in the ribs and nails him with a forearm and then another and another. Eli shoves her back. Kara rolls through. She gets up and runs over to Eli and nails him again and again. Eli shoves her back again. Kara rolls over and gets up and she runs at Eli again and jumps up for a crossbody, but Eli catches her and drives her down with a fall forward slam. She rolls over. Eli grabs her and drags her up and headbutts her. She staggers back. She turns and runs at him and Eli hip tosses her down. Kara gets back up and Eli grabs her and whips her into the ropes. She bounces off and Eli lifts her up and into the air before he catches her on his shoulders and throws her back with a samoan drop. The crowd ohs. Kara rolls over, holding her ribs in pain.

 

Sharper: “Oh God…All of his weight across Kara’s ribs and this could be a quick one.”

 

Knots: “Well 2017 may not start well tonight, but if Laura Steinbeck gets Sienna’s contract voided, Kara Abheri may be named the Women’s Champion!”

 

Sharper: “Well I don’t know about that. Two things we can tell you about the Women’s Title. Kara Abheri will receive her opportunity at the title at Hazardous Envy. No matter what. And next week, if Sienna Swann is still here, she’ll defend against Lexi von Aaron.”

 

Knots: “But she’s injured….but wait…she could be a champion. Get clearance! She could bring home the belt to AJ!”

 

Sharper: “Stop it. Now the pin!”

 

Eli walks over to Kara and drags her away from the ropes and goes for the pin.

Kara kicks out. She turns and rolls over, grasping at her ribs. Eli grabs her and lifts her up and clubs her in the back. He then turns and whips her into the corner. Eli runs after her and nails her with a running splash into the corner. The crowd ohs. Kara winces and Eli grabs her and whips her across. He then looks up and extends his arms before turning back and running at Kara, but Kara, at the last minute, spins to the apron. Eli hits the corner and staggers back and Kara springboards to the top rope and diving forward, grabbing Eli and spinning around into the tornado reverse STO. The crowd ohs as Eli rolls over, holding his face in pain.

 

Sharper: “What a maneuver! STO of the top rope!”

 

Knots: “Well that’s one way to get in there. Eli just found the mat after talking to God!”

 

Eli slowly stirs and Kara gets up. Eli turns around to her and Kara hits a front dropkick. He falls back to the ropes. Kara gets up and winces a bit before running into the ropes, bouncing off and jumping up and hitting a floatover DDT onto Eli D’Angelo. He rolls over and Kara hooks the leg.

Eli kicks out. Kara slowly gets up and turns and goes to the corner. She climbs up to the top rope. Eli slowly gets up and turns as Kara glances back and hits a corkscrew moonsault onto Eli. The crowd roars. She goes for another pin.

Eli pushes her off. He turns and Kara gets up. She walks around the ring. Eli starts to get up and Kara runs over to him and goes for a clothesline. He ducks and she bounces off the ropes. On the rebound, he grabs her arm and lets her run past before pulling her back in and into a vicious clothesline. Eli walks around. He then calls for the end. Kara stirs as Eli waits and Kara staggers to the ropes. Eli then walks over to her and scoops her up for a sidewalk slam. Kara however backflips through and lands behind Eli. He turns around and Kara jumps to the middle rope and dives back with a knee. Eli is dazed and falls back to his back. Kara then turns and climbs up to the top rope. She turns around on the top rope.

 

Sharper: “Kara Abheri got Eli down! Knee got him down.”

 

Knots: “What’s she doing?”

 

Sharper: “We saw this at the End of the Year Special!”

 

Kara then dives off and hits the Magic Carpet Ride. The crowd ohs. Kara dives on top for the pin.

3!

 

The bell sounds.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Kara Abheri!”

 

Sharper: “Kara Abheri gets the two points and the win. Magic Carpet Ride gets it done!”

 

Knots: “Jesus! All of her weight down on her knees into his stomach!”

 

Sharper: “And she gets some momentum heading into the bulk of the tournament, but also her Women’s Title contest.”

 

The crowd cheers as Kara gets up and has her arm raised. She looks around and celebrates a bit as Eli rolls to the floor. He winces and walks around.

We open up to see Craig Thomas and Stacy Kissinger grabbing their bags as they walk out of the Adrenaline Rush locker room with Tyler Tucker. Just then  Craig stops and looks forward as Eric Teufel stands in their way.

 

Craig: “Eric…”

 

Tuefel: “What? Not happy to see that my agency has gotten a big client…and I mean that more ways that one.”

 

Craig: “We know what you’re here.”

 

Tuefel: “Do you? That’s good to know. Then you know that whatever hopes you have…they’ll be eclipsed by what will be coming this way.”

 

Kissinger: “Where’s tha monstah you conned?”

 

Tuefel: “Didn’t con…gave him a chance and SCW is giving him a chance. And next week, he’ll be making his Breakdown debut. You’ll be sure to watch?”

 

Eric smiles and heads off. Thomas just watches him leave.

 

Tucker: “Y-you have your TV Title Eliminator next week, Craig.”

 

Craig: “Then we’ll be sure to be ready.”

 

Craig, Tyler and Kissinger then head off in the opposite direction as the scene fades out.

COMMERCIALS

We return to Breakdown and open up at ringside to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the announce position.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown and we have some news.”

 

“Immortals” starts to play as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see the SCW Women’s Championship logo come up on the screen before fading to show Lexi von Aaron vs. Sienna Swann.

 

Sharper: “Sienna’s agent must not have been successful. Or Mr. D has decided to press forward.”

 

Knots: “Sienna Swann is defending her title next week. But against Lexi von Aaron?!”

 

Sharper: “Looks like it. That tells us that her bandages and casts, they’re all an act. The fall at End of the Year Special not as bad as it seemed.”

 

Knots: “How can they make that judgement?!”

 

Sharper: “We have trainer physicals before every show, Jon!”

Sharper shakes his head.

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, we told you that SCW had gotten a video of the attack on Ravyn Taylor. We are going to share it now. And I’m told, we now better know what may have happened.”

 

We see a shot of Ravyn Taylor watching while against one of the floor walls, where glass would be placed in the event of a hockey game. The scene shakes a bit as the sound is muffled. We then see three fans walking over to Ravyn. One of the three shoves Ravyn. Ravyn backs up at first and another shoves her down. We then see security coming in as one of the fans throws a punch. Ravyn gets up and throws a punch too as the fans are pushed back. Several fans around just watch that action as we then see the camera turn around to show Dante McCaffery filming it. He just smiles.

 

Dante: “I wonder how that happened.”

 

Dante smiles as we cut back to see Ravyn being forced through the crowd in the opposite direction as the fans are held down by security and one is handcuffed. The video ends.

 

Sharper: “Well I’ll be damned.”

 

Knots: “Ravyn is just naturally unlikeable!”

 

Sharper: “Come on Jon. Dante McCaffery there. He has a bit of money. He even filmed this. Come on…”

 

Knots: “Hey!”

Shilo Valiant (2 pts) vs. Jinn (0 pts)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

 

The audience begins to boo as "Sin with A Grin" by Shinedown is heard. A growing fog forms near the entryway of the ramp as a spotlight shines down on the ramp. As the song advises the masses to look left and right, from the fog rises Shilo Valiant, his mask the ever-smile of the jester. Valiant slowly locks his arms in the X pattern of "Necro" before thrusting his right hand up to the spotlight, locking up at the raised palm that faces him. As he does, a shower of red sparks rains down upon him, seemingly from the spotlight. Valiant slowly lowers his arm, the colors of his mask glowing amidst the red of the rain and white of the spotlights. The eternally smiling one slowly walks down the ramp, the spotlight following him.

Phillips: "The following contest is for the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament with a ten minute time limit. Now making his way to the ring, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, The Blood-stained Joker, Shilo Valiant!"

He walks around the ring and up the short stairs, climbing under the middle-rope to enter the ring. Standing within its center, the spotlight still cast on him, Shilo Valiant slowly raises his arm once more to the source, his spotlight, looking up at it as his fingers reach for it. With a one last look at such an image, Shilo commanding the spotlight on him, the lights return to normal.

Sharper: "Shilo Valiant, certainly a favorite in the tournament as he makes his way down toward the ring now, had choice words to make just before this contest. He will be challenging Jinn who made his debut two weeks ago. A hell a contest between Tyler Tucker and himself, a match that was even deemed a match of the year candidate."

Knots: "Hey may have turned some heads but he's stepping into the ring with Entertainment personified! Shilo is no stranger to the Adrenaline Championship, he's just what the division needs to make it great again!"

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

Phillips: "And his opponent, from parts unknown, Jinn!"

Making his way to the ring, he takes off his weaponry, leaving it in a neat pile off to the corner. He leaps to the apron before catapaulting himself over the top rope and rolling into the ring where he strikes a pose on one knee and the pyro on the four turnbuckles go off. Shilo steps back from the corner, initially surprised, now annoyed. He glances over to Jinn as the referee calls for the bell, not looking impressed. Regardless he begins to smile before lightly clapping his hands together in a mocking gesture. Raising his hands up in front of him he leans over, beckoning for Jinn to lock up with him center in the ring. Jinn seems ready to oblige when Shilo suddenly kicks him in the mid section before their hands meet. He connects with a solid right fist to the temple that sends Jinn reeling back a bit. Shilo steps in with a second and a third that knocks Jinn into the ropes. Grabbing his arm he whips him across the ring. Jinn bounces back and narrowly ducks as Shilo swings his arm going for a stiff clothesline. Jinn leaps up and spring boards off of the ropes just as Shilo spins back around, being caught and taken down with a reverse DDT. The crowd cheers a bit as he connects with several stiff stomps before running into the ropes before doing a forward roll and then a flip up in the air, attempting a rolling thunder. Shilo rolls out of the way, Jinn sits up casually as Jinn smirks while waving at him.

Sharper: "Jinn cocky and confident, clearly feels he knows his way around the block and Shilo is not amused."

Knots: "Amusing is his job! Knock some sense into that twerp!"

Both men spin over and get to their feet, Shilo running forward with a double axe handle swing. Jinn ducks and dives behind him before leaping up and going for a reverse hurricanrana. Shilo falls back several steps, catching Jinn on the top rope as he is going down. Bouncing his legs off of Shilo's shoulders, Shilo takes the opportunity to spin with a discuss forearm shot. Jinn ducks it before raising his arms up and grabbing a hold of Shilo's head, pulling him down face first across the top rope. As Shilo falls back from the whiplash Jinn leaps up and springboards off of the top rope, coming in with a front dropkick to the back of the head that sends Shilo crashing to the mat. The crowd begins to cheer as Jinn does a forward roll and flip back up to his feet. He smiles as Shilo rolls over and starts to pull himself up. Jinn quickly scales the corner up to the top rope before leaping off, going for a cross body. Shilo catches him with a dropkick to the mid section. The crowd begins to boo as Jinn rolls over on the mat. Shilo smirks while walking around him, leaning down to smack him across the back of the head, referring to him as boy.

Knots: "That's right! Put him in his place! Our rightful Television Champion! The savior of entertainment!"

Sharper: "Oh stop with that already! Jinn very energetic and quick on his feet, Shilo however catching him upon that landing."

Jinn starts to stand just as Shilo runs in with a knee across the skull, nearly knocking him back down. Shilo grabs him by the head before spinning him over with a swinging neck breaker. He stomps on Jinn repeatedly, doing a slow methodical laugh taunting him. Pulling Jinn back to his feet he smacks him across the face. He then connects with a right fist to the jaw that sends him spinning around. Running forward he grabs the back of Jinn's head and drives him face first into the mat with a face buster. Standing up he runs across the ring before rolling through and connecting with a rolling thunder. Standing up he taunts the crowd who begin to boo before turning his attention to Jinn, repeatedly smacking him around as he grabs him and pulls him back up.

Sharper: "Shilo Valiant clearly very confident, very arrogantly guiding this match, showing a complete lack of respect for Jinn here tonight."

Knots: "Good. He should be! What is a rodent to a hawk?"

Setting him up he lifts Jinn up before slamming him back to the mat with The Morning Star. The crowd boos as he stomps away before lifting him up and connecting with a second as Jinn tries pulling himself out of his grasp. Running up beside him he knees Jinn across the side of the head. He can be seen something to the camera before walking over and pulling Jinn up setting him up for The Last Laugh. Jinn fights back connecting with several blows to the spine before shoving Shilo into the ropes. Shilo comes back and leaps up going for a knee smash to the face. Jinn ducks this and waits as Shilo continues running bouncing off the opposite ropes. Before he can so much as try to counter his momentum Shilo runs in and connects with a forearm smash across the face. Grabbing a hold of Jinn instead of letting him drop to the mat, he pulls him in under his arm. He sets Jinn up for a DDT, when Jinn strategically places his leg behind Shilo's. He suddenly trips Shilo while rolling forward and bridging Shilo's legs up over his head with a Gannosuke Clutch roll up.

1!

2!

3!

The crowd lets out a shocked murmur as Shilo kicks out quickly at the three count.

Knots: "Oh my GOD! What just happened?!"

Sharper: "Oh Lord, Jinn with possibly the biggest upset of the night, perhaps one for even the whole tournament! Shilo Valiant is a favorite to win the whole damn thing and Jinn has come in and defeated him in the early stages of this contest with that roll up!"

Shilo looks up flabbergasted as he looks to the referee. Jinn quickly slides out of the ring as "Robot Metropolis" is playing in the background. He celebrates, beckoning for the fans to cheer, some doing so while others appear to still be shocked at the end result. Shilo confronts the referee, appearing to be questioning his count as Jinn raises his arm up at the top of the ramp before turning and exiting off of the stage.

COMMERCIALS

 

In the middle of the commercials, we then suddenly see something of interest to wrestling fans. We open up inside of a one-room cabin, with the sun shining in, exactly like on the last Breakdown. But now, the cabin has some movement. From the bed, we see a brunette woman looking out the window, topless. She steps out of the bed, revealing that she is only wearing panties. She walks off without a full view of anything. We also notice someone seated at the desk, back to the camera and wearing a hoodie as the scene ends. Regular commercials return afterwards.

"When Money Comes, When Money Comes"

 

The crowd boos as “G.O.A.T.” by CFO$ featuring Will Roush starts to play. A few moments pass before Blake Mason walks out wearing the same shirt and pants he had earlier, minus the blazer. Bree Lancaster walks out with him wearing the same dress she had. The crowd boos as they start to head to the ring.

 

Sharper: “Coming from on-high, they finally are prepared to join us here.”

 

Knots: “Exactly. And time to watching Honour Code show how little respect they have for anything in the face of revenge!”

 

Sharper: “Blake in his shirt and pants…Bree is still in that dress. She can’t be competing in that? Meanwhile, we still expect to hear more from Kelcey Wallace. She said she has a surprise for Blake.”

 

Blake Mason walks over to the ring as we see Scott Burnside looking on from the luxury box. Blake Mason walks up the steel steps and reaches back and helps Bree up the steps. Blake enters the ring and holds the ropes for Bree. She enters. She walks around as Blake walks over to the far ropes. Blake is handed a microphone. He takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring.

 

Blake: “Well I suppose this is the time that we see if the Honour Code have their focus on revenge or instead of the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. I mean they’ve already come short with the Tag Team Titles…AJ came short with the World Title. Why not just add the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament to the list. At least it gives him something to fight back from.”

 

Blake smirks as Bree smiles.

 

Blake: “But as I stand here, I have to say that I am disappointed. We threw down the gauntlet. Honour Code did their usual posturing, but in this era where I have had my greatest weapon removed from me, the piledriver…where wrestler safety is to be promoted, I have not had a contract passed by me for Bree and my approval. Therefore, unfortunately, the Honour Code, while talking a big game, they have neglected to properly answer my challenge and give them their opportunity against Bree and myself. They will need to step back into line and hope to earn an opportunity at the World Tag Team Championship if they ever want to get their hands on us.”

 

The crowd boos loudly.

 

Sharper: “Give me a break! They never said that! They made a challenge!”

 

Knots: “But it’s smart! We should have a contract. Both teams then know what’s on the line!”

 

Sharper: “Give me a break!”

 

Blake: “Now, despite that, I hope that you don’t let your pathetic revenge drive you too much, just like it will lead to the end of Kelcey Wall-“

 

Just then, “Rise” by Sixx: AM starts to play. The crowd roars. Blake steps in front of Bree as Bree steps back.

 

Sharper: “I don’t think Honour Code see it the same way!”

 

Shaun Cruze then walks out from the back with AJ Helms. The two step storm to the ring.

 

Blake: “Hold it! Hold it right there! We don’t have any agreement and Bree, she’s not ready to get back into the ring. She’s still recovering from Supreme Saturday-“

 

Sharper: “Come on! She was in the ring at Hell Hath No Fury!”

 

Knots: “These barbarian! Oh no! They’re still coming!”

 

Helms runs over to the ring as does Cruze. Bree and Blake both run over and kick at the ropes. AJ and Shaun back up. Blake watches them as Cruze starts to run to the ring again. Blake kicks at the ropes. AJ reaches over to grab Blake, but Bree kicks at him. They step back. The crowd boos as Blake and Bree keep watching them.

 

Sharper: “Bree and Blake lording over the ring. Preventing Honour Code from getting inside.”

 

Knots: “And they’re probably just unhappy with everything else that’s gone on in their lives lately!”

 

Sharper: “Honour Code sick of watching people like Lexi von Aaron or B&B Experience get their way!”

 

Blake kicks at the ropes as Cruze and Helms keep trying to consider plans. Cruze then walks around the ring as Helms remains at the entrance way. Bree watches Cruze as Blake keeps and eye on AJ and suddenly, there’s a rise of sound from the fans before boos as we see Sloan Sawyer and Diana Weston run over to AJ and Sawyer drops down and chopblocks AJ’s leg. AJ goes down. Diana Weston then stomps away at AJ as the crowd boos. We then see Cruze turn and start to run around the ring. Blake then drops down to the floor behind him. He runs around with Cruze as Cruze goes to help AJ. He pushes Diana back and Sloan moves back before Blake grabs Cruze and clubs him in the back and then again before turning and rolling him into the ring.

 

Sharper: “Daughters of Darkness attacking AJ Helms. Helms is hurt! Cruze in the ring now as Blake sends him in.”

 

Knots: “I guess they are going to give them their fight. What spirit and honour from B&B!”

 

Sharper: “Come on! It’s a blindside attack. Seems to be a trend tonight.”

 

Cruze starts to get up and Bree forearms him and Blake runs over and knees him in the side. We then see Sloan and Diana start to stomp away on AJ and Diana grabs the leg and kicks at the leg over and over again. The crowd boos as AJ tries to fight off both as Diana kicks out his leg. We then see Kelcey Wallace and Selena Frost both running out from the back. The crowd erupts in cheers. Shawn Mason is a few strides behind. Diana and Sloan bolt away from AJ as Selena runs over to him. Kelcey slides into the ring. Bree goes to nail her, but Kelcey nails her with a hard right. Bree falls to the mat and rolls out of the ring. Blake turns and throws Cruze into Kelcey. Blake drops down and rolls to the floor. The crowd boos. Shawn hops onto the apron and enters the ring. Kelcey starts to get up as Shaun does too. Selena helps AJ up and they roll into the ring. AJ wincing and limping a bit as Selena looks around. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “The World Champion. The Perfect Ten. They come out here and Daughters of Darkness and the B&B Experience backing away.”

 

Knots: “DoD and B&B working together though. That’s new!”

 

Sharper: “A lot of history there from other promotions. Causes align tonight. Selena and Kelcey too. And Honour Code with Kelcey Wallace, Shawn Mason and Selena Frost in the ring.”

 

DoD move back to the entrance way and back up and start to head to the back. Bree walks around and joins Blake. Kelcey looks around as Selena and Shawn check on AJ and Shaun. Shaun nods and walks around. AJ winces a bit, holding his leg. He limps and leans on the ropes. Kelcey grabs a microphone and turns back to the middle of the ring. Blake and Bree look to the ring.

 

Kelcey: “Blake…you want to keep playing your games and now you want to duck from fights you set up. I’m so happy I can announce this now.”

 

The crowd roars. Blake snaps at Kelcey.

 

Kelcey: “Because you want to keep causing fights, but you don’t want to fight them. Now you’re hiding behind the World Tag Team Titles. Well, Blake, you and I already have a date come Hazardous Envy and if you manage to make it past them, I’m making sure that you and Bree get everything you deserve. All I had to do to make sure they were fully on board was ask. It’s a weird way this happens…”

 

Kelcey turns to Selena.

 

Knots: “She’s looking at Selena. What did Selena do?!”

 

Sharper: “Kelcey and Selena Frost locking eyes.”

 

Kelcey turns to Shaun and AJ. AJ limps a bit.

 

Kelcey: “Shaun…AJ…I hope you understand. Because I asked Selena for one match. Selena was willing to give it to me. We met over the holidays. We’re on the same page. And we both agree you two, Blake and Bree, need to be put in your place. So, I am cashing in my Trios Tournament contract. Selena, being a champion….a true champion…she agreed to give me a one on one shot against her. Title…no-title, I’ll leave that to her and what may happen at Hazardous Envy, but her and I are going to be on the same page because at Retribution, we’re going to face the B&B Experience for the World Tag Team Championships if they hold them. And trust me, we’re going to kick your ass.”

 

Bree turns to Blake.

 

Bree: “What?”

 

Blake tries to calm her down.

 

Kelcey: “And Blake…we have another ace up our sleeve, but you like your contracts so much…when it goes through later this week, get your lawyers to tell you full well you’ll not be getting out of this one!”

 

Selena smiles as Kelcey looks at Blake as Blake keeps trying to calm Bree down.

 

Sharper: “Kelcey Wallace & Selena Frost will face the B&B Experience at Retribution for the Titles, but there’s more.”

 

Knots: “Some sort of stip. I don’t know, but also, Selena and Kelcey are going to face one more time.”

 

Sharper: “Perhaps a show of respect. Selena knowing how much those losses affected her. Perhaps a sign of unity. Two allies, respecting allies, giving each other a match – Kelcey called her a true champion, willing to face her when she didn’t need to!”

 

Knots: “But the title?”

 

Sharper: “Tag Titles at Retribution, but when Kelcey and Selena face off, I don’t know. The fans though will be in for a treat when that happens!”

 

The crowd roars as Bree and Blake keep moving to the back. Honour Code look at to Kelcey. AJ turns to Bree and Blake as Shawn helps him a bit. Shaun talks to Kelcey and Selena as we cut away.

COMMERCIALS

We return to Breakdown as we see Christina Matsui with Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster backstage.

 

Blake: “What the hell is this? Show us the contract!”

 

Christina: “Blake, Bree-“

 

Bree: “No. There’s some further stipulation. You can’t tell us now!”

 

Christina: “The contract has been filed with the Board of Directors. We have approved the match itself, the participants, the title on the line…but the stipulation, that requires further approval.”

 

Bree: “That’s crap! Aren’t these things all or nothing!”

 

Christina: “Bree-“

 

Blake: “Don’t worry, after our lawyers get through it...”

 

Christina: “There’s nothing you can do unless you get negotiate your release.”

 

Blake: “What?”

 

Bree paces as Blake turns to Christina.

 

Blake: “This isn’t going to go through…”

 

Blake turns and heads off with Bree as Christina looks at them leaving.

We then cut to the trainer’s room to see AJ Helms with Scarlett Pearson now joining them. Shaun Cruze is with them as is Shawn Mason too. The trainer checks on Helms as he is on the bed.

 

Helms: “Look. I got a match.”

 

Shawn: “AJ…it’s a leg injury-“

 

Helms: “It’s the main event of the first Breakdown of the year.”

 

Shaun: “AJ…just-“

 

The trainer pushes on the leg and AJ grimaces in pain.

 

Trainer: “I’m guessing that hurts.”

 

AJ: “It’s fine.”

 

Scarlett: “AJ…”

 

Trainer: “Look, I hate to say this, but it’s a leg injury. If it’s a sprain, that’s one thing. If it’s a tear…you’re limping badly. I can’t in any good conscience clear you.”

 

AJ: “Are you kidding me? After…”

 

AJ stops himself.

 

Shaun: “You sure?”

 

The trainer nods.

 

Shaun: “AJ…we’ll get them back for this.”

 

AJ: “I’m sick of this. After Lexi, the World Title, the DoD…now I can’t compete as I start this tournament….”

 

AJ just leans back as he clearly tries to regret saying something else as Scarlett comforts him. We then cut away.

Ace Marshall (0 pts) vs. AJ Helms (0 pts)

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

 

We cut to the ring to see Ace Marshall reaching the ring. “Adrenalize” plays in the background. Ace slides in before standing up and running his hands through his hair, singing along with the song. Cassidy climbs up on to the apron.

 

Sharper: “AJ Helms not cleared it seems. Or at least not cleared immediately. The trainer not ready to do so.”

 

Knots: “Daughters of Darkness strike again. Go for the leg and costs them. Had they just stayed backstage!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t think Ace knows. He’s been sent to the ring. Officials noticed AJ Helms injured. Not going to risk injury of a young star. Not with something like that. Leg injuries can end careers.”

 

Standing along it she raises her head up to the rafters while leaning fully into the top rope. She sways her hips seductively before flipping over it, landing inside the ring on her feet before turning and throwing her arms up and walking toward the center of the ring just as Ace makes his way to the corner. He climbs up it before looking out into the crowd while thrusting an arm up. Dropping down after a moment he turns his back to the crowd before removing his jacket and shades. He sets them to the side of the apron for an official to grab just as the match is about to be underway. We cut to a wide shot as the official for the match, Steve Hollinsworth, can be seen talking to the timekeeper and Jason Phillips. Ace Marshall walks around the ring.

 

Sharper: “The official talking to Jason Phillips, and our timekeeper.”

 

Knots: “Probably sending word. We’ve seen people compete without the trainer getting involved.”

 

Sharper: “We’re being told that SCW specifically after AJ returned to the back during the commercial break, forced him to go to the trainer’s office. That new focus on competitor safety. Something I’m proud that SCW is doing.”

 

Ace Marshall walks around the ring. We cut to Jason Phillips who can be seen getting something relayed to him by the official. Jason Phillips nods.

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am being told the AJ Helms, as a result of the events before the commercial break, may have a leg injury. The trainer on site will not medically clear AJ Helms to compete. Therefore, the winner of this match, as a result of a forfeit, Ace Marshall!”

 

The crowd boos. Ace just throws his arms up and looks around.

 

Sharper: “A shame given that this was supposed to be our main event here tonight.”

 

Knots: “Well AJ was the idiot who ran out. Seems he cared more about his stupid desire to be a hero than to actually do what he’s paid for!”

 

Ace just shrugs and shakes his head as Cassidy Carter starts to hop onto the apron. Just then, we see someone entering the ring. The crowd roars as the figure runs over to Cassidy Carter and knocks her off with a boot. The crowd ohs. Ace turns around and goes for a clothesline, revealing the other person to be Christy Matthews. Matthews turns, holding the SCW Adrenaline Championship and runs at Ace and nails him with the title to the face. Ace hits the mat and Christy drops the title before grabbing Ace and pulling him up.

 

Sharper: “Christy Matthews! From the crowd! Like Alexis earlier!”

 

Knots: “And we saw her leave through the crowd earlier after she retained the title!”

Sharper: “She’s attacking Ace Marshall! The man she will face at Hazardous Envy, possibly with the Adrenaline Title on the line!”

 

Christy gets Ace up and then hooks him up and plants him with the Happily Never After. The crowd ohs. Ace slowly rolls over to his back. Christy Matthews remains seated next to him.

 

Sharper: “The Happily Never After!”

 

Cassidy starts to get up on the floor. Christy looks around before patting Ace on the chest. Cassidy hops onto the apron. Christy rolls over and rolls out of the ring. Cassidy enters and goes over to the ropes before Christy backs up. She moves away as Cassidy turns back to check on Ace.

 

Sharper: “PUNK HAZARD attacking at will. Thinking on a level they haven’t. Dark Fantasy, Ace Marshall.”

 

Knots: “And Dawn Lohan and Tommy Valentine not even able to get something back. PUNK HAZARD may not hold the World Title anymore, but they’re going to run the show damn it!”

 

Sharper: “But the list of enemies growing and PUNK HAZARD can only dodge these bullets for so longer. Next week, Dark Fantasy faces Christy Matthews and Alexis Quinne. Dawn Lohan and Tommy Valentine both in action too. We’ll see you next week, in Birmingham!”

 

Christy Matthews backs away and starts to exit the ringside area as the crowd boos…
