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

 

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

 

 

MAIN SHOW:

 

The opening strums of “Rescue Me” by Buckcherry plays as the Breakdown logo flies past the screen before we see a shot of Jake Starr holding the SCW Championship over his head. This is followed by a shot of Brittany Lohan locking in the From California with Love before freezing and flying past the screen. We see a shot of Katie Steward posing on the rampway before freezing and flying past the screen. This is followed by a shot of Rachel Foxx pulling on a barbed wire wrapped bat stuck on Dillusion’s hair and then ripping away as Dillusion smiles from the sudden pain, before freezing and flying at the screen.

 

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

 

We see Dillusion hitting Anthony Wallace with a hard right hand before freezing and flying at the screen. A shot of Jason Zero dropping Sasha Drachewych with the Chaos Theory is shown before freezing and flying at the screen. A quick shot of David Helms holding the SCW Adrenaline Championship over his head, before switching to a shot of Gable Winchester and Stacy Kissinger standing together, followed by a shot of Thorn hitting the Griever’s Bane on someone is shown, followed by a shot of CHBK standing in a suit in the ring, all freezing in mid-motion and flying at the screen.

 

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

 

Shots of Gigi Steward and Syren looking at each other, standing across the ring from each other, followed by showing Lucas Knight hitting someone with the UKOD, and followed by a shot of Christian Savior hitting a spear on Greg Cherry are all shown before freezing and flying past the screen. A shot of the former SCW Tag Team Champions, Liberation, are shown, posing with the titles before flying past the screen.

 

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

 

Several shots of various SCW competitors, new and old, including Shilo Valiant, Andrew Samuel Pugh, Thorn & David Helms, Lucas Knight, Masquerade, Infamous and others all fly past the screen before ending with the SCW Breakdown logo flying into the screen.

The scene then switches to the inside of the Times Union Center in Albany, New York where spotlights circle the arena before pyro shoots out from the entrance way on both sides and around the big screen before coming to a stop. The crowd erupts in cheers as the cameras pan the audience, showing the crowd, cheering and waving their signs, hoping to get onto camera. Spotlights circle the arena for a few moments before we sweep down to ringside and the SCW announce team of Adam Sharper, Jim Dawson and Jonathan Knots.

 

Sharper: “Welcome everyone to the first Breakdown of 2011! Welcome to the Times Union Center in Albany, and tonight, a huge night as we kick off 2011 with some huge matches here tonight.”

 

Dawson: “That we do! The Adrenaline Championship will be on the line. Gable Winchester & Stacy Kissinger will face Christy Matthews and Ravyn Taylor, but that’s not all. We’re being told that Thorn and David Helms are going to confront and demand CHBK to explain his actions!”

 

Sharper: “Hello again, Adam Sharper, alongside Jim Dawson and Jonathan Knots and that’s one of the big stories, but that’s not all. We have a new World Champion in David Helms!”

 

Knots: “I don’t even know what to think. But Syren has been happy backstage. We know of the friendship that has occurred between those two and if she’s happy, I guess I am!”

The scene then switches to show Jason Phillips in the middle of the ring.

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome one of the new champions crowned at the End of the Year Special...”

 

The crowd starts to roar.

 

Phillips: “The New Women’s Champion, Katie Steward!”

 

The crowd boos loudly as her opening plays:

 

I'm not cocky
I just love myself
Bitch!

As the lights in the arena begin to dim, the whimsical voice of Katie Steward is heard giggling as “Vanity” by Christina Aguilera plays on the speaker system. Bright pink spot lights swirl around the arena as varies images of Katie Steward are captured on the video screen. Plush ruby red carpet is rolled down the aisle way just as Katie Steward emerges from behind the curtains. Miss Steward is all decked out wearing her long white coat and a stunning diamond studded tiara rests on her beautiful blonde hair curls. The SCW Women’s Championship, now outfitted with pink leather instead of the typical black, sits around her waist. Katie produces her famous smiles for the live audience, as the crowd boos further, she postures for them. Multiple flash bulbs can be seen as the cameras snatch as many and every pose she graces them with.

Katie starts her walk down the ramp to ringside. TJ Johnson exits from behind the curtain and follows his Goddess. Once she reaches ringside, Katie folds her arms over chest and looks back over her shoulder at TJ Johnson waiting for him to do his job. When he sees that “look”, he immediately runs past her and enters into the ring. Next T.J. excitedly waves everyone out of the ring. All the while Katie was fixing her hair at ringside ignoring what T.J. was doing. She walks over to the steel ring steps.

Mirror, mirror on the wall
They call me stuck up, but I'm not at all
Never mind, I am (I am)
It's not my fault I'm the shit
Yeah I am
And I'm a bad ass bitch (hey!)

The camera’s view returns to Katie Steward as she stands at ringside fixing her coat. She looks up spreads her arms out wide and smiles the Famous smile for her glorious introduction as some of the fans have already begun to boo her and show how much they dislike and disrespect for her. Katie gracefully walks up the steel ring steps and onto the apron. She bends down enters the rings between the middle ropes that T.J. holds down for her. She walks over to the opposite corner and climbs onto the ropes. She takes off her lovely coat revealing her beautiful wrestling attire. Many in the crowd start to take snap shots of their Goddess as she shows off the SCW Women’s Championship. Katie jumps down and walks to the other corner to pose and climbs up on the middle ropes just as the lighting returns to normal and the music dies. Katie does one last pose for the fans then she jumps down and walks towards T.J.

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who's the flyest of them all
It's me, bow down get on your knees
Where's my queens?
Who reigns supreme?
Let me hear you scream
Whooo!

TJ Johnson smiles down at Katie, before bowing slightly, before taking the microphone from Jason Phillips and holding it for Katie Steward.

 

Sharper: “And we’re going to be greeted by the now six-time SCW Women’s Champion.”

 

Knots: “I think hell froze over at End of the Year Special. I really want to ask Robin Brooks if she was THAT injured to be unable to prevent THIS!”

 

Katie Steward just smiles before looking out at the crowd. She then looks down at her waist before looking up and smiling.

 

Katie: “Your Goddess has proven yet again that she is greater than any other woman in SCW today, yesterday or tomorrow as I have done something never done before and won my SIXTH Women’s Championship, ushering it yet another renaissance of greatness for the Women’s division!”

 

The crowd boos as Katie looks around before frowning a bit.

 

Katie: “That is hardly a way to appreciate what I have done for you. Despite my continuing desire to bring the SCW World Championship back to where it belongs, I have taken time out of my busy schedule to ensure that the SCW Women’s Champion stays at the high level I established so many years ago. Oh yes. Marina Trent, that circus-freak wannabe, claiming to be a Queen backstage. Ha! She doesn’t even know the first thing about being a queen. Did you see the makeup she uses. It’s all over the place.”

 

Johnson then takes the microphone briefly.

 

Johnson: “Like using a paint roller.”

 

Katie: “Exactly! And don’t you ever take my microphone again.”

 

Johnson: “Sorry My Goddess.”

 

Katie just glares at TJ for again interrupting him.

 

Dawson: “I wonder what Gigi and Madison Steward are thinking about Katie as Women’s Champion.”

 

Sharper: “Good question.”

 

Katie: “But now, as I have reclaimed the Women’s Championship from what has been nearly two years of just disappointment. I mean clearly there is no sense of competition when Syren holds the belt for a year and doesn’t even provide me or any of the Brats a clean opportunity....and Marina...sigh....”

 

Sharper: “There’s that selective memory again.”

 

Katie just shakes her head.

 

Katie: “But as I say that, I think I need to put in a formal protest as I have reclaimed the title from their grasps and I am being forced to compete in a ladder match that I never agreed to! I mean, this is a match that Syren and Marina Trent agreed to. They figured it would be fun to play in Home Depot or something. Well, I am above that. I am above all of that. They can have their grotesque little fights. In fact, what says they deserve a shot against me? Hmmm? I mean Syren was so afraid of me when she was champion and even Marina beat her...and then I beat Marina. I have proven that I am better than them both. So what is the meaning of all of this? Oh no, this is not good. It’s only been five days and already these ungrateful divas are trying to dethrone me. Yet SCW itself even chose me to replace Robin Brooks. How can they not understand that this is where this title is meant to me. Around my waist?!”

 

Knots: “Is she making any sense?”

 

Sharper: “In her mind.”

 

Katie: “Well this is just unheard of and I refuse to allow such jealousy to start under my reign as Goddess Champion. So I demand that we start things off right and that all of the divas in the back come out and pledge their allegiance to their Goddess and then together we will reclaim MY World Championship!”

 

The crowd boos loudly as Katie just smiles, confident in her proclamation as she stands in the ring. TJ Johnson smiles with her.

 

Knots: “Oh I’m sure that will happen. Right after Ducky and Katelyn Buehler go for a play date and don’t kill each other.”

 

Katie just continues to smile, waiting before the lights dim slightly and a spotlight points down at the centre of the stage. “Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system as the screens come alive.

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy

 

The crowd gives a mixed reaction before Syren walks out from the back, wearing a Syren t-shirt and tight jeans, showing off her figure. A microphone is in her hand as she just looks at Katie and starts to walk down to the ring. She starts to walk down the rampway as her music cuts off.

 

Syren: “Katie. You know, people around here like to make fun of me and think that I’m a bit of a ditz, but I think they’re somehow mistaking me for you and that’s just scary too! I mean, you really think we’re all going to come down here kiss your ass because you ‘saved’ the title. Well, I totally don’t think so!”

 

The crowd cheers a bit.

 

Syren: “You want to know why Sasha put you in that ladder match. It’s because I asked for that match from Marina in her own game because I wanted to get that title back. It was my life for over a year! And now, guess what, you’re the champion. And maybe you need to stop letting the bleach in your hair seep into your hair and so totally act like a champion and defend it! And guess what, that’s going to happen no matter how much you cry. And Katie, guess what, I have beaten you. And guess what, I did beat Gigi and Madison in their game too. You’re not perfect.”

 

TJ then suddenly rips away the microphone from Katie, immediately going to protect Katie as Katie just looks on in shock.

 

Johnson: “How dare you speak about your goddess like that?”

 

Syren: “Nuh-uh. She’s not my Goddess! And she never will be! I’m so getting sick of your act!”

 

Johnson: “You’re just jealous that Katie Steward was able to get the job done and beat Marina on the big stage.”

 

Syren just looks shocked and almost as if that comment hit her a bit hard. Syren just looks up and goes to respond before “Whispers in the Dark” starts to play throughout the arena. The crowd cheers a bit more as Syren then glances back, having now made it to the end of the rampway and Katie just looks up and glares as Marina Trent walks out from the back, wearing her tiara and with a microphone in her hand.

 

Marina: “Like Oh My God!”

 

Marina just shakes her head, doing a quick impression of Syren and Katie.

 

Marina: “Could both of you please stop talking? I mean the IQs of all of us in the back I am confident are plummeting to an all-time low between your totally and Katie’s ramblings. Seriously, this is exactly what I’ve been talking about for months and one reason I was ecstatic with the ability to be champion and take this division in a new direction. Away from bottled blondes with the D-cups. Sure...Syren, you may have cared about that championship. But you cared just as much about looking good, just like these fans cared about you popping out of your top.”

 

The crowd roars hearing that.

 

Marina: “Katie...it’s more that you just care about the gold around your waist and nothing more!”

 

The crowd cheers a bit more as Marina then looks down at the ring.

 

Marina: “Katie, let me make this clear. I am not ever going to kiss your ass. Your reign as Queen, as Goddess, as whatever the hell you claim yourself to be, is over. My reign is beginning. And you may be champion now. But as Syren just said...that ladder match...it’s my playground. It’s something I’m looking forward to. And Katie, Syren, both of you, you can try all you want, but it’s time for something new and I am going to lead the charge by watching you try to climb up that ladder only to have a perilous fall as I laugh and watch you both crash and burn....and watch as the Black Swan and New Queen takes her throne!”

 

“Whispers in the Dark” starts to play again and Katie Steward just looks down at the belt around her waist. The crowd cheers as Marina then looks at Syren and Syren just looks at her back, glaring. Marina just smiles as she holds her arm up in the air. Katie continues to look a bit concerned as she continues to look at her belt and TJ Johnson starts to try and boost her confidence.

 

Sharper: “Marina Trent, despite losing the Women’s Championship, seems confident. It will be her match. A ladder match. Her agility is a natural fit there.”

 

Dawson: “But then there’s the hunger of Syren and the experience of Katie Steward. We’ve said in the past that Katie Steward has survived everything. Hardcore matches. Cage matches. Street Fights.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but does she look confident now. I don’t think so.”

 

“Rescue Me” then starts to play in the arena as a still of David Helms vs. James Evans for the Adrenaline Championship comes up on the screen.

 

Sharper: “Well folks, plenty to come tonight, including Katie Steward in action, but also, the SCW Adrenaline Championship will be on the line. James Evans has a hell of an uphill battle. The confidence the champion has now that he’s also World Champion, has to be intimidating.”

 

Knots: “But that’s not all!”

 

The still changes to then show Gable Winchester & Stacy Kissinger vs. Christy Matthews & Ravyn Taylor.

 

Dawson: “Gable Winchester and Stacy Kissinger get a slight measure of revenge for what happened on the last Breakdown of 2010. They face Christy Matthews and Ravyn Taylor tonight. But what condition is Stacy Kissinger in?”

 

Knots: “And Thorn and Helms have said they’ll confront CHBK.”

 

Sharper: “All that and much more on the first Breakdown of 2011!”

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown cuts backstage and into the office of Sasha Drachewych to see Donovan Kayl seated in the office with Sasha Drachewych just shaking her head across the desk.

 

Sasha: “I just don’t believe it.”

 

Kayl: “So he didn’t say anything to you?”

 

Sasha: “Aside from inviting me to Christmas before the show started, and as you know, that wasn’t too pleasant, no.”

 

Kayl just shakes his head.

 

Kayl: “Well you know him, he’ll do anything to get into the heads of his opponents. Maybe this is just him-“

 

Sasha: “Donovan. One moment.”

 

Sasha then stands up.

 

Sasha: “Get that camera out of here! I’m having a private meeting!”

 

Kayl glances back before looking up.

 

Kayl: “Let me get the door.”

 

Sasha Drachewych just glares at the cameraman as the cameraman staggers back, banging the camera off the door before Kayl closes it in his face. The cameraman just stands filming the door for a moment before we head back to ringside.

 

Sharper: “Donovan Kayl and Sasha Drachewych looking to be discussing the matter with CHBK.”

 

Dawson: “They’re in shock and obviously have little more news. Donovan Kayl is CHBK’s son in law and we’ve talked in the past on how close CHBK and Sasha were. I mean CHBK helped Sasha gain control of this company.”

 

Knots: “And now she has to deal with what CHBK does. And he’s just that good. He’s always ahead of everyone and anyone!”

Vampira vs. Rex Butler

Underground Rules

 

The arena lights go off as the opening of “Cryin’ Like a Bitch” begins to play. A single spotlight shines down on the stage as Rex Butler appears - with Alisha Hicks - and stares out into the darkness. They make their way down the ramp, ignoring the fans taunts, as Rex steps onto the ring apron and over the top rope as Alisha walks along the outside of the ring. Inside the center of the ring, Rex raises his arms into the air as the lights come back on, before turning his attention to the stage and awaiting his opponent.

Dawson: “Rex looks ready and pumped up. He may be looking to make a statement tonight”

Knots: “I agree but his opponent seems to reveal in the pain and blood baths just as much as Rex Butler. This one won't be for those with weak stomachs ladies and gentlemen”

The entrance screen comes to life with Vampira hitting movies and spitting mist in opponents faces as black flames shoot up from the stage as Mushroomhead's Sun Doesn't Rise hits and the lights go red. Soon Vampira emerges from the back covered by a long black velvet cloak covering her head. She stops at the ramp as the flames burn on both sides of her. Her manager Thomas Anderson emerges from the back dressed in a black suit with a black shirt underneath and black sunglasses. Vampira lifts the hood from her head as Thomas stands next to her looking over the crowd. Vampira raises her head as the fans scream for her. She raises her left hand to silence them before looking around and then screaming at the top of her lungs one of the most demonic blood curdling screams you could imagine much to the fans approval as Thomas Anderson laughs with a sick grin on his face. Vampira and Thomas walk down the ramp. Vampira jumps onto the apron as Thomas Anderson walks up the steps climbing into the ring. Vampira holds the top rope and throws her head back spitting black mist into the air as black flames shoot from the ring post. She jumps over the top rope and throws her cloak to the Thomas Anderson before sitting in the corner and awaiting her opponents as Thomas is walks down to the side of the ring and starts rubbing her shoulders talking to her.

Sharper: “And the stare down begins. You can just see both of the competitors have some evil intentions toward the other”

Dawson: “Res now actually laugh and motioning to Vampira that he was going to break her in half”

Knots: “Vampira just turned her back to Rex. You don't do that with Rex Butler. A mistake already and here we go!”

Rexx charges at Vampira who drops down out of the way, He goes flying over the top rope and down to the arena floor. Vampira wastes no time in climbing to top rope. Thomas hands her a chair and Vampira leaps off nailing Rex across the back with the chair. Rex yells out in pain and s tumbles way holding his back only to get another chair shot from Vampira to the back. Rex falls against ring steps and Vampira tries to slam the chair into Rex's head. Rex barely manages to avoid the shot and crawls away.

Knots: “Vampira just tried to make hamburger with Rex's brains. He didn't know he was in a fight, he knows now!”

Dawson: “What message is Vampira trying to send tonight. “Legalize murder?”

Rex begins making his way up the entrance ramp with Vampira right on his trail. Vampira catches up with him and gets an elbow to the face from Rex. She stumbles backwards and then charges again only to get met with a boot to the face. Vampira drops and rolls all the way back down the entrance toward the ring. Rex takes him time walking back to the ring and actually stands on Vampira's chest with both feet. You see Vampira struggle to catch her breath as Rex butler smiles. He drops and covers for a pin attempt

Vampira's out before the three count

Dawson: “Rex now looking to end this one fast.”

Knots: “I'm a fan of Rex Butler but even I know this one is far from over. He has to stay on Vampira and do a lot more damage”

Sharper: “I'm inclined to agree. Vampira is one of the toughest wrestlers in the SCW, male or female”

Rex begins looking around under the ring and pulls out a 2x4. He holds it up and smiles before turning to Vampira who was on her hands and knees gasping for air. He goes to nail Vampira with the 2x4 but Vampir a grabs Rex between his legs and twists. Rex drops the 2x4 and then drops to his knees in pain as Vampira slow gets to feet. Vampira lets go just long enough to nail Rex with a kick between the legs. Rex stands up and yels out just long enough to fall over the security wall and into the crowd. Vampira continues to gasp for air but manages to climb with the 2x4. Vampira nails Rex across the knee with the 2x4 causing Rex to yell out in pain. He tries to get to to his feet only to fall down. Rex tries to stand again but a kick to his injured knee sends Rex back down to his knees. Vampira grabs by the head trying to slam his head into one of the now vacant chairs but Rex nails Vampira with a headbutt to the midsection. He stands long enough to pick Vampira up and drop her chest first across the chair.

Sharper: “Rex seems to be focused on Vampira's upper body. If she can't breathe she cant fight so it may be sound strategy”

Dawson: “I'm not convinced its any sort of plan. I think it's the fact that he just likes to cause pain”

Knots: “Keep in mind that Rex 's knee may be fractured as he is standing now but you don't see him putting any weight on that injured leg”

Rex begins to drag Vampira through the crowd while trying not to put weight on his leg. He gets to the exit door and begins to pull Vampira to her feet only to Have Vampira kick him in the knee again. Rex drops to his hands and knees in the door way and Vampira slams the door right into Rex's head. She slams the door into Rex's head again and then again a third time before rolling Rex over in the doorway and going for a pin

Rex kicks out and Vampira gets to her knees still holding her chest before getting up and walking through the exit doors. Rex manages to pull himself up using the doors and limp behind Vampira, yelling her name. He turns a corner and gets hit with a trashcan right in the head by Vampira. Rex stumbles backwards, almost losing his balance and gets a second shot with the trashcan. This time Rex goes down as blood begins to pour from his forehead

Dawson: “What viscous shots with the trash can by Vampira and Rex is busted open”

Knots: “The ambush tactic's may be the best way to go by Vampira. Keep Rex butler from using his size and strength”

Vampira begins laying into Rex's knee with repeated shots using the chair she turns and slams the chair into Rex's chest before tossing it away. Holding her chest, Vampira walks over and grabs one of the crew members, yanking his belt off of him. She turns and goes back to Rex, lashing him with the belt. Rex yells out in pain and tries to get away but was unable to stand. Vampira manages to wrap the belt around Rex's neck and begins to choke him him. Rex looks to be slowly fading as he struggles to try to catch his breath. With one last Effort Rex stands with Vampira on his back and then charges backwards sending Vampira and himself crashing through a glass window into a break room with snack machines as the crowd begins to chant “Holy Shit”

Sharper: “This one has to be over. There is no way Vampira is getting up from this”

Dawson: “Paramedics. We should get some paramedics in there now”

Knots: “I don't see anyone moving. Is anyone moving in there at all?”

The referee rushes to see Rex laying on his back across Vampira. He drops to make the count

...1

...2

Vampira manages to get her shoulder up before the three count. Both wrestlers begin to stir as you see cuts and scratches over both their arms and even see Vampira's back covered in glass and blood as she gets to her hands and knees

Knots: “How in the hell are either of these wrestlers moving?”

Vampira goes to grab Rex and but Rex shoves her into the snack machine. She grabs her back and stumbles away as Rex reaches for anything he can hold onto to try and pull himself up. He leans down grabbing his injured knee. Vampira jumps on a table that was set up in the room and leaps off, catching Rex and sending him faces first into the broken glass with an X Factor. Rex rolls around holding his face which was now covered with tiny pieces of glass as Vampira gets to her hands and knees

Dawson: “Rex has to be in a lot of pain as his face is covered in blood and glass”

Sharper: “That has got to make it hard to see.”

Knots: “And once again Vampira goes back to her strategy of stick and move as she has disappeared once again”

Rex crawls out behind Vampira before finally getting to his feet and falling back against a wall. He begins to head toward the direction of the souvenir stand almost dragging his one leg behind him but still in search of Vampira. Vampira charges Rex from behind but Rex is waiting for her this time and catches Vampira, slamming her down through a souvenir table. Vampira yells out in pain and rolls over onto her stomach, holding her back as Rex rolls away. Rex shoves a table full of shirts on top of Vampira before getting to his feet again. He grabs a camera from one of the camera guys and limps over waiting for Vampira to get up. Vampira slowly gets up only to get nailed with the video camera and crash back into the tables. Rex tosses the camera aside and then covers Vampira

...1

Vampira again manages to kick out and you see Rex sit up on his knees with a frustrated look on his face before reaching down and choking Vampira

Dawson: “Frustration now showing in Rex's actions”

Sharper: “He's put her through glass and through a table and still she refuses to stay down. Wouldn't you be frustrated”

Dawson: “I wouldn't put myself in that position which is why I'm sitting here”

Rex crawls away and manages to get to his feet. He grbs a fire extinguisher and limps back toward Vampira waiting for her to get up. Vampira wipes the blood from her forehead and starts to get up. She ducks a shot to the head by Rex with the fire extinguisher and then spits mist right into his face. Rex drops like a rock and rolls around holding his face and screaming in pain. Vampira grabs a beer from a fan, and pours it in Rex's face now causing him to scream out even more as the alcohol gets into his cuts. She grabs Rex turning him over and begins rubbing his face in the broken glass once more before going over and grabbing the fire extinguisher he had dropped. Rex gets to his hand and knees only to get a blow to the back of the head from Vampira using the fire extinguisher. Vampira rolls Rex onto his back and covers him for the pin.

Somehow Rex manages to kick out as the crowd goes completely silent

Sharper: “Rex kicking out has silenced this crowd completely”

Dawson: “I don't know why anyone would be surprised. Look at the man. Doesn't look like a bulldozer would keep him down but is it me or as Vampira smiling”

Vampira grabs Rex by the head and yells at him to follow her to her playground. She turns and heads out of the room, holding her back as she did. Rex sits up and you now see a pissed off look on his face as he slowly got to his feet. He slowly makes his way after Vampira with a pained expression on his face with every step. Rex manages to head outside into the parking area and Vampira once again goes on the attack. She swings a crowbar at Rex but he ducks it and then catches Vampira with a clothesline knocking her for a loop before she hits the ground. Rex falls to his hands and knees and then looks over toward a car and smiles.

Knots: “Rex Butler has that look in his eyes. The spells evil intentions”

Sharper: “This one may be coming to a close ladies and Gentlemen. Vampira looks to be out of it”

Rex grabs Vampira and drags her toward the Car. He manages to once again stand, this time Leaning Vampira up against the car door. H takes a step back and then goes to kick Vampira right in the head. Vampira manages to drop out of the way and Rex puts his foot through the car window setting off the car alarm. Rex yells out in pain as Vampira takes out his injured leg cause Rex to fall with his leg still caught inside the car window. Rex struggles to get his leg free as Vampira jumps up and nails Rex with a guillotine leg drop across the face

Dawson: “I've seen Underground matches to settle scores and everything else but I've never seen two people who seem to be enjoying themselves so much with it”

Sharper: “What a way to bring in the new year for these two”

Knots: “While I'm enjoying this, I don't see the reason behind killing yourself for the idiots out in the crowd, just to give them a good show.”

Vampira gets up and slowly begins to walk away. She seems to be searching for something and soon finds what she is looking for in the form of another sledgehammer. Vampira holds up the sledgehammer and smiles as the crowd begins to cheer. Vampira turns toward Rex to find him gone. She begins looking around but Rex was no where in sight

Knots: “What in the hell? Where did Rex Butler Go?”

Vampira walks toward the car and you hear Rex yell out. She turns just in time to see a huge trash dumpster being shoved toward her. The Trash dumpster slams against Vampira and then the car and you see Rex Butler standing with a smile on his face before laughing as as once again the crowd goes completely silent. The referee calls for help and a few people rush in to try and get the dumpster away from the car to see what kind of condition Vampira was in. Paramedics rush out as well as the crowd continues to sit without making a sound

Dawson: “I'm not sure what to say here”

Sharper: “Vampira got sandwiched between that dumpster and the car. We could be talking serious injuries and now here comes Thomas Anderson yelling for the dumpster to be moved”

Knots: “Obviously the match is over at this point. I think everyone is more focused on what could be a severely injured Vampira”

The dumpster finally gets moved but there was no Vampira everyone begins looking around as Rex Butler makes his way over. He shoves everyone out of the way and then grabs his head in shock. He turns and kicks Thomas Anderson in the head before picking up the sledgehammer and thinking of nailing Thomas with it. Suddenly the crowd actually cheers as Vampira was shown standing on top of the dumpster. Rex begins to look around. Thomas gets up with a pissed off look and nails Rex with a right cross . Rex stumbles and turns right into Vampira leaping off the dumpster and nailing Rex with Just Like That. She rolls Rex over and goes for the pin

Thomas helps Vampira up as paramedics rush in to check on both her and Rex Butler

Knots: “And Vampira steals on maybe thanks to Thomas Anderson and that right cross”

Dawson: “Well I think Rex fired the first shot at Thomas Anderson and being a boxer he simply responded”

Sharper: “What we are forgetting here is how did Vampira escape being crushed by the dumpster? How did Vampira disappear and get to the dumpster without anyone noticing for that matter. This has got to be one on the most bizarre endings to a match I've seen”

Dawson: “What a way to ring in 2011 though.”

The scene opens backstage and we see Katie Steward walking backstage on her way to her locker room. TJ Johnson follows her.

 

Katie: “I can’t take that TJ. You know it. I know it. We need to have them fear me! They need to fear their Goddess!”

 

Johnson: “Of course your Goddess. Of course. Maybe Robin and Paris can help us out.”

 

Katie: “And Gigi and Madison. This is going to require all of us!”

 

Katie continues on her way her locker room before stopping. Johnson then steps forward and opens the door before stepping inside, holding it and Katie walks in and lets out a small shriek.

 

Katie: “Where is everyone?!”

 

Johnson: “Um....”

 

Katie: “Um? Get them...NOW!”

 

Johnson: “Yes, your Goddess.”

 

Katie just stands in her locker room, still scanning for anyone, but finding no one as TJ Johnson runs out of the room and goes on his search as Breakdown fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and the crowd cheers as we see David Helms walking through the hallway towards his locker room. Kathryn Helms follows him as Helms is congratulated by one of the officials in the back as he continues on his way towards his locker room. Just then, the pitter-patter of fashionable footwear is heard and we see Syren run up to Helms. Helms turns as Kathryn glances at her husband and then the beautiful blonde before she runs up and immediately hugs Helms. Helms just looks at her as Kathryn shakes her head, giggling a bit under her breath.

 

Helms: “Ah...Zoe....I can’t quite breathe.”

 

Syren looks up.

 

Syren: “Oh...yeah.”

 

Syren backs up before turning and looking at Kathryn.

 

Syren: “Oh...sorry...that probably looked bad.”

 

Kathryn: “It’s fine...it’s fine.”

 

Syren: “Sorry, just I’m so happy. You did it! You’re World Champion.”

 

Syren flashes her smile as she jumps up and down.

 

Syren: “Congratulations!”

 

Helms: “Thanks. But not quite out of the woods yet. I have to defend the Adrenaline Championship still tonight.”

 

Kathryn: “Speaking of which, you probably should go and start to get ready.”

 

Syren: “Oh yeah. Well, I just wanted to say that at our hotel, I’ve sorta booked the ballroom there for a bit of a party to celebrate your becoming champion. Like I said on twitter, I’m getting you a party for winning the title!”

 

Helms just laughs a bit.

 

Kathryn: “Well how about that?”

 

Helms: “I think Kathryn and I can stop by a bit later. Just, I gotta ask...”

 

Syren: “Ravyn...”

 

Helms: “Sorry, but going for a drink, that’s one thing. I just don’t see things going well if Ravyn, Christy, CHBK....”

 

Helms lets out a small sigh of anger.

 

Helms: “If they’re there. I don’t think we want to be kicked out of a hotel.”

 

Syren: “They’ll behave!”

 

Helms: “Sorry Zoe. I believe you, but I don’t trust them.”

 

Syren looks a bit heartbroken.

 

Helms: “How about we just go out and get a drink in celebration. The three of us. Just that.”

 

Syren then looks at Kathryn, who smiles at her, before turning back to David.

 

Syren: “Deal! That should be fine.”

 

Syren smiles a bit as David smiles.

 

Kathryn: “Come on David. We gotta go.”

 

Helms: “See you later.”

 

David and Kathryn walk down the hallway as Syren just smiles a bit and starts to walk off as we head to ringside.

Aaron Rupp vs. Ace Marshall

 

Knots: “Well that’s rude. She had a party and he’s worried about Infamous. Pfft!”

 

Dawson: “I’d say it’s a good worry.”

 

Sharper: “Probably the truth. Anyways, welcome back to ringside here in Albany, New York and next up we’ve got a match that could be something of a hidden gem here on Breakdown, or could not be. It all depends on the very up and down form of Ace Marshall.”

Dawson: “No doubt, Marshall has massive potential for success in 2011, but at the same time he also has the potential to slip completely under the radar. The controversial star isn’t well liked and after a few losses in recent shows he needs a big performance here tonight.”

Knots: “What and Rupp doesn’t? That seems fair. Aaron Rupp had the opportunity to become United States Champion not too long ago and if I recall he blew it, Ace Marshall had one of the best matches of the show in Stable Warfare.”

Sharper: “You’ve got a fair point there Jonathan, but not long after he went on to lose to Katie Steward. Speaking of Katie Steward, have you heard the rumours? They’ve been circulating all day; apparently Katie and Marshall got engaged over the Christmas break. I’ll believe that one when I see it!”

Knots: “Oh great, so now not only are you all over him for his performances lately but now you’re implying that Katie Steward wouldn’t want him either? Real classy! You know when he catches the replay of Breakdown he’s going to hear all of that, maybe you can get your End of Year Special buddy Donovan Kayl to come save you when Marshall puts his foot up your ass!”

"Hero" by Skillet begins to play as the lights dim, a lone spotlight shining down onto the middle of the stage as various other spotlights pan through the crowd, as though they're looking for someone. The Tron is showing various clips from all of Rupp's matches throughout his career. As the lyrics begin, a figure slowly emerges from backstage and steps into the spotlight, his head hidden by the hood of an open sleeveless black leather trench coat that reaches down to the figure's ankles. All the other spotlights converge on the figure as he uses his right hand to push the hood off his head and, in one fluid motion, throw his arms out to the sides in a wingspan pose as all the lights come back on and green pyro explodes behind him, just in time for the song to go into the chorus.

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen the following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first of all, from Sandusky, Ohio, weighing in at two hundred and thirty pounds, this is AARON RUPP!”

Once the introduction is over, Aaron Rupp heads down to the ring with a focused and determined look on his face. He hops up onto the apron and enters the ring, removing the trench coat and tossing it out of the ring as he stands in his corner, arms folded across his chest as he waits for the bell to sound.

Dawson: “Well getting back to business and Aaron Rupp is looking good tonight. You just know that he’s thinking about the year ahead and everything that he wants to accomplish. We haven’t seen Liberation in action lately, Rupp is definitely establishing himself as a singles competitor and he’s doing a good job of it.”

Knots: “Define good job. Last time I saw he was losing to Shilo Valiant. He may be popular but popularity doesn’t mean a damn thing these days unless your name is David Helms, where apparently being popular gets you everything you want out of life, including a hot mistress if you believe Jake Starr...”

A very quick clip appears with a countdown starting from three starts on the screens, flashing between blue and green numbered cards before a very large and loud golden pyro goes off center stage and "Wanted Man" by Rev Theory begins playing. Ace Marshall steps out from the pyro with his arms extended out while twirling to a hateful audience. The crowd begins booing loudly as Ace makes machine gun shots with his hands before casually walking down the ramp as his theme begins to pick up. Reaching the bottom of the ramp he takes a quick step forward before leaping up onto the apron Ace leaps over the top rope and lands in the ring where he stops in the center and drops to one knee. He raises both arms up with his thumbs extended out pointing to himself, taunting the crowd before each turnbuckle one at a time but in quick progression goes off with more pyro. Each one goes off five times in succession and in order. After the last one Ace jumps up to his feet and cracks his neck before turning toward the stage ready for the match.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from Austin, Texas, weighing two hundred and seventeen pounds, this is “The Smoking Ace”, ACE MARSHALL!”

The referee pats down Marshall, checking him for any foreign objects before checking he’s ready for the match and calls for the bell to be rung. Marshall steps forward to the middle of the ring and Rupp comes out of his corner looking ready to compete. He shakes his arms to loosen up before offering up one for a test of strength and Marshall accepts before quickly slapping Rupp across the face with his feet hand and rolling out of the ring, laughing about it with one of the fans at ringside who doesn’t seem at all amused. Rupp stands in the middle of the ring holding the side of his face in pain before looking down over the ropes and asking Marshall what the hell he thinks he’s doing. The referee orders Rupp back to his corner before telling Marshall the match has already begun and threatening to start counting before Marshall begins to climb back in to the ring.

Knots: “Ha!!! Happy New Year Aaron Rupp! What a slap, that one might have loosened a tooth or two!”

Sharper: “What the hell was that? Aaron Rupp looking to start wrestling and Ace Marshall obviously in a jovial mood here tonight, wanting to get a few cheap laughs in before this one actually begins. I think Rupp is still in shock at how hard he got hit.”

Dawson: “That’s what I was talking about Jonathan, what the hell was the point in that? Rupp looking to start this match off, Marshall just slaps the hell out of him and then laughs about it with a fan who didn’t seem to find it funny at all.”

Marshall is back in the ring and still has a smile on his face as Rupp walks over to him and asks what he’s doing before telling him to bring it in the middle of the ring. Marshall nods his head in agreement, coming forward before pointing at the referee and saying something. Rupp looks over at the referee and Marshall slaps the hell out of him again and begins laughing but this time Rupp doesn’t stop in shock, he seems angered by the second slap and jumps Marshall angrily, beginning to unload with right hands before whipping him across the ring, catching him and spinning him out, dropping him with a massive tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Marshall grabs his back in pain and immediately rolls out to the floor, calling a time out as he struggles to get back to his feet. The crowd cheer and Rupp soaks in the applause while the referee and Marshall argue about the “time out”, with the referee asking what he thinks he’s doing.

Dawson: “I think whatever comedy Ace Marshall got out of the beginning of this match is now officially over. Massive backbreaker out of the tilt-a-whirl completely rocks Marshall and he’s struggling to even stand up on the outside.”

Sharper: “These fans finally cheering, which they weren’t doing after the slap earlier, and Aaron Rupp seemingly enjoying it. He might want to be careful though, Marshall does have good ability in the ring even if he isn’t always at his most focused. The referee I think is losing patience with him as well, especially with this time out thing.”

Knots: “You know what; we SHOULD have time outs in professional wrestling. Seriously, how many people do you see wanting to call them when they need to recompose themselves? SCW can innovate a brand new practice...”

Rupp climbs the turnbuckles, playing to the crowd and Marshall, who up to this point has been holding his back in pain on the outside, quickly dives back in to the ring and pushes the referee out of the way as he charges across the ring and nails Rupp in the back before leaping up and grabbing his head, pulling him off the turnbuckles hard. Rupp grabs the back of his head in pain after he hits the mat hard and Marshall isn’t done, quickly dropping down to a mount position and unloading some vicious shots on Rupp as the crowd boo loudly. The referee forces Marshall off of Rupp and Marshall just pushes him down, telling him to stay out of it before pulling Rupp to his feet by his head, locking in a front facelock before snapping down hard and driving Rupp’s head in to the ring with a DDT. Rupp holds his head again as Marshall gets back to his feet, holding up his arms in the same way that Rupp had done to soak in the applause a moment earlier and the fans boo loudly so Marshall flips them off, pulling Rupp back to his feet and throwing him to the corner before running in and clotheslining him down to a seated position.

Knots: “That’s it, that’s the Ace Marshall I came to see! Absolute killer instinct the moment that Aaron Rupp took his eyes off of him! Admit it, you fell for it all as well, you thought he was out here being a fool and just having fun and then bam, the Smoking Ace strikes!”

Sharper: “Marshall absolutely drilled Rupp with that DDT, we’re still early in the match and already I think the referee is more than a little concerned about Rupp. He’s got a far away kind of look in his eyes, there was no way he was expecting to be pulled off the turnbuckles like he was and I think his head snapped off the ring.”

Marshall begins kicking away at Rupp in the corner, holding the ropes while he kicks as the referee counts one... two... three... four... and Marshall steps back, reminding him that he’s got until five. He grabs Rupp and pulls him out of the corner, looking to hook both the arms possibly for the Tiger Driver variation he calls the End Game but Rupp slips out of it. Marshall hammers on his back, pulling him back up again, grabbing him in a headlock before dropping him to one knee and driving his knee in to the spine of Rupp while holding his head to prevent him from moving. The fans boo loudly as Rupp is in obvious pain and Marshall keeps driving in the knee strikes again and again before finally pulling Rupp up and snapping him back down with a snapmare, running the ropes and kicking him straight in the face again. Rupp goes down holding his head and Marshall spins around proudly before quickly going for the ropes, ducking between them and springing to the top rope, landing a massive elbow drop on Rupp before going for the pin as the fans boo...

1...

2...

Dawson: “AARON RUPP KICKS OUT!! Ace Marshall isn’t kidding around though, he started off playing the fool and all of a sudden this deadly serious side has suddenly come out of him.”

Knots: “I tried to tell you but you just figured he was going to slip away in to nothingness, or whatever you said. Somewhere in the back right now I bet Katie Steward is watching the monitors and loving every second of this.”

Sharper: “Oh c’mon, you can’t really believe that rumour. Ace probably made it up himself; I figured you’d already have learned not to believe everything you read on the internet after they were reporting you were being fired at one point.”

Marshall looks up at the referee angrily, slapping the mat three times in quick succession and telling the referee that THAT’s how you count. The referee just holds up two fingers to him, telling him it was only two. Marshall gets up angrily, pulling Rupp up again and once again hooking the arms, looking for the Tiger Driver and this time rather than slipping down Rupp manages to throw Marshall over himself in a back body drop. Marshall hits the mat and Rupp collapses back to his knees as well, holding his head and neck still before pulling himself up as the crowd cheers. Marshall struggles back up, charging at Rupp who levels him with a clothesline. He struggles up again and again Rupp comes at him with a clothesline, and again, and a fourth time and the crowd cheer wildly as Rupp is now in control. Marshall struggles up a fifth time and Rupp grabs him, whipping him to the ropes before nailing him as he rebounds with a roundhouse kick. Marshall goes down on his front and Rupp quickly grabs one of his legs, locking in an STF as Marshall screams out and claws toward the ropes.

Dawson: “Huge flurry of offence by Rupp and he’s completely changed the course of this match, and now Ace Marshall is in serious trouble. He’s reaching for the ropes, clawing and doing everything he can to get there...”

Sharper: “I’m not sure how much Rupp has to hold on to that STF though, he’s got it locked in but not in his normal way, the impact to his head is still playing a factor and it’s allowing Marshall to pull himself toward the ropes.”

Knots: “And... YES!! Marshall’s on the ropes ref, break the hold. Break the damn hold already, do you job! We already know you can’t count quickly enough, at least break up the submission.”

Dawson: “I thought he had until five? Isn’t that what Marshall said earlier?”

Knots: “Shut up!”

Rupp breaks the hold and gets back to his feet to cheers from the crowd, grabbing Marshall’s foot to stop him from rolling to the outside yet again but Marshall kicks him off and rolls out anyway. The referee orders Marshall back in to the ring and Marshall waves him off, telling him he doesn’t care and staggering around the ringside area. Rupp runs the ropes and leaps over the top rope, crashing down on Marshall to huge cheers from the fans. Both men are down on the outside for a moment before Rupp gets back up and grabs Marshall, pushing him back in to the ring and rolling in after him. Marshall gets back to his feet slowly and Rupp grabs him in a belly-to-belly, lifting him and dropping him in a backbreaker. Marshall grabs his back in pain again and the fans cheer. Rupp grabs Marshall to stop him leaving the ring again and pulls him up, lifting him with an STO and drilling a backbreaker to more cheers from the fans.

Dawson: “Well, there goes the idea about going to the outside! Aaron Rupp completely in control of this match and not one but TWO massive backbreaker variations from Rupp has Ace Marshall completely rocked, and I think I know what’s coming next...”

Sharper: “Rupp stalking Marshall as he pulls himself up using the ropes, he’s looking to end this one with the Paralyser, that double-knee lung-blower that he uses to great effect.”

Marshall gets up and Rupp leaps up, going for the lung-blower but Marshall grabs hold of the top rope when he feels it coming and Rupp crashes down to the mat. He quickly rolls back to his feet again but Marshall comes at him with a shoulder block that knocks him down, running the ropes but Rupp rolls over and Marshall has to run over him, coming off the ropes again as Rupp leaps up and attempts to leap frog over but Marshall catches him, going for a powerbomb but Rupp nails him with a punch and snaps off a Hurricanrana that knocks Marshall in to the corner. Rupp goes at him, trying to lift him up on to the ropes but Marshall frantically grabs the ropes and the referee gets in between them to force a break. Marshall reaches over the referee, out of his eyeline, and rakes the eyes of Rupp and Rupp grabs his face in pain. Marshall quickly follows up with a neckbreaker before smiling to himself and going for a cover...

Dawson: “Oh for god’s sake, rake of the eyes!! Blatant rake of the eyes when the referee wasn’t looking, Aaron Rupp absolutely taken off his game and now Marshall going for the pin.”

Sharper: “Unfortunately the referee didn’t see the underhanded tactics, but he does slide in to position for the pin attempt...”

1...

2...

Rupp pops his shoulder off the mat to wild cheers from the crowd and Marshall yells at the referee again. He pulls Rupp up, hooking the arms for the Tiger Driver again but Rupp slips out of it for a third time, taking down Marshall with a single-leg dragon-whip takeover before rubbing his face in pain and trying to see straight again. Marshall gets back up and comes at Rupp but Rupp ducks the attempted clothesline and quickly grabs him, nailing an Ace Crusher...

Dawson: “RUPP ROCKER OUT OF NOWHERE AND ACE MARSHALL JUST GOT ROCKED!!!”

Knots: “What the hell, where did that come from? C’mon Ace, you don’t let it end that way...”

Sharper: “Rupp rubbing his eyes again before going for the pin, he’s got the leg hooked and the referee counts!”

1...

2...

Marshall puts his foot on the ropes and the referee sees it just in time before counting the three. The fans boo and for a moment Rupp thinks he’s got it before he sees the leg and slaps the mat in frustration. He quickly pulls Marshall back to his feet again before forcing him in to position for a powerbomb. He signals to the crowd who cheer wildly and goes for an attempt at the Ruppture but Marshall AGAIN rakes the eyes while in position for the powerbomb and the referee doesn’t see it. Marshall flips up and over, going for a sunset flip but not getting it properly. He grabs Rupp by the tights instead, forcing him down with a roll up...

Sharper: “RUPPTURE ATTEMPT STOPPED BY ANOTHER EYE RAKE BY MARSHALL! That’s the second time he’s gone for the eyes when he’s been in trouble.”

Dawson: “He’s done nothing but use cheap tactics in this match and NOW HE’S GOT THE TIGHTS!! HE’S GOT THE DAMN TIGHTS!!”

Knots: “What? Where? Referee doesn’t see it so it doesn’t count!”

1...

2...

3!!

Marshall quickly lets go of the tights and rolls to the outside as "Wanted Man" by Rev Theory hits the PA system and Rupp sits up in shock, trying to tell the referee about the tights as the referee calls for the bell. Marshall throws his arms up in the air in celebration and Rupp cannot believe what’s just happened, and neither can the announce team.

Dawson: “NO!! For god’s sake, two rakes of the eyes AND a pull on the tights and that was absolutely DAYLIGHT ROBBERY from Ace Marshall!”

Knots: “What the hell are you talking about? Referee didn’t see it, it didn’t happen; all that matters is that ACE MARSHALL WINS!! That’s the perfect start to 2011 for him and the absolute worst possible start for the big fan hero there Aaron Rupp who’s still complaining to the referee.”

Sharper: “Can you honestly blame him Jonathan? He suffered one rake of the eyes before the neckbreaker, managed to kick out, then thought he had the win off the Rupp Rocker only for Marshall to put his foot on the ropes, and a SECOND rake of the eyes led to a cheap three count.”

Dawson: “Like I said, DAYLIGHT ROBBERY!”

Knots: “Like I said, THE SMOKING ACE WINS IT!! Ace Marshall wins it and now can you imagine the celebration he’ll be throwing in the backstage? Katie Steward get ready, your man needs some loving.”

Dawson: “Oh would you stop with that stupid rumour...”

The scene opens up backstage in the locker room of Infamous to see Ravyn Taylor, standing in front of Christy Matthews as Brittany Lohan just leans against the wall.

 

Ravyn: “Look. Just relax. He talked to you all at the End of the Year Special. Didn’t need that nosy Jessica Winters around, but he laid it out.”

 

Christy: “Sorry Ravyn, but this is a guy that will do whatever he needs to.”

 

Ravyn: “And where’s the wrong in that? I’m sure Brittany wouldn’t disagree.”

 

Brittany lets out a brief chuckle and walks over.

 

Brittany: “Oh nothing at all. I love that philosophy. It’s just that that means he’ll do whatever he needs to do for himself, and not necessarily us.”

 

Ravyn: “You’d think that. But you haven’t talked to him like I have. He’s made us what we are. Without him, no Infamous.”

 

Christy: “Fine...whatever. I’m just not sold on him. I figured I’d make that clear before he gets here. He’s on our side. I guess I’ll warm up to him. I got used to Lucas and Zoe here.”

 

Ravyn: “Just the same with Pete and we’ve gotten better.”

 

Brittany: “That’s fine. But next time, give us a clue. Because I don’t need to be jerked around more. I had plenty of that with Lucas and it took every fibre in my body to not take his head off.”

 

Ravyn: “Don’t worry Brittany. We’ve got everyone talking. We’ve got everyone focusing on what we’ll do next. The best part....no one knows except us. You may hate him. But I know all of you respect him. And that is what is going to ensure our success. You heard him. He’s got everything figured out...well...we do. And Pete even acknowledged that then. So if you don’t trust me...trust him.”

 

Just then, the door opens and Syren walks into the room. She still has a bit of her smile on her face and Ravyn glances back.

 

Syren: “Oh...I’m interrupting. Just carry on.”

 

Ravyn: “No it’s alright. Just discussing some concerns. How did talking to our World Champion work out? Is he coming to this party that you’ve put together.”

 

Syren looks a bit down.

 

Syren: “Nah, he decided it was best just to have a drink in celebration.”

 

Ravyn: “Figured as much. Too concerned about our presence, correct?”

 

Syren: “Well...yeah...”

 

Ravyn: “Says something to outright tell a friend that they don’t trust their wife. But that’s alright. We had no intention of playing those games. It was a joyous occasion. Jake Starr was humbled. Always great to watch that. “

 

Christy: “You can say that again.”

 

Syren: “It’s alright. Probably for the best. He’s already gotten in a bit of trouble with his friends.”

 

Ravyn: “He’s a grown man. He can be responsible for his own decisions. Regardless, enjoy your drink with him. We’ll make ourselves scarce then.”

 

Syren: “Alright.”

 

Syren smiles a bit and continues to walk back before Lohan walks over to Ravyn.

 

Lohan: “Smart man he is.”

 

Ravyn just turns to her, speaking quieter.

 

Ravyn: “Definitely...when he hears what CHBK has in store him and Thorn...this is going to be fun.”

 

Ravyn smiles as Christy just looks at her.

 

Christy: “Care to let us in?”

 

Ravyn: “Here...come with me. Since you don’t want to be kept in the dark, get the cameraman out and I’ll show you.”

 

Lohan: “With pleasure.”

 

Lohan just walks towards the cameraman and the cameraman starts to back away as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and we open up in the locker room of Katie Steward, now surrounded by Paris Dannon, Robin Brooks showing her cast-covered arm and on crutches as well as a result of a skating accident, Gigi, Madison and TJ Johnson.

 

Johnson: “Now listen. It did not take long for the horrible people of SCW to start being jealous of our Queen again. The divas are already stepping up.”

 

Paris: “That’s a shock.”

 

Katie flashes a glare at Paris.

 

Gigi: “Well you do have the ladder match to counteract that.”

 

Katie: “Yes, I do. But I fear that may be too late. I have to do something tonight to instil fear into the Women’s Division and they will welcome me as their Queen and Goddess and LEADER of them. Oh yes.”

 

Johnson: “So! What’s the plan my Goddess?”

 

Katie: “Plan? Oh no. I have no plan. That’s your department.”

 

Robin: “You called us here to think something up for you.”

 

Paris: “Really? I need a drink.”

 

Katie: “Hey! You’re supposed to be helpful. Oh my Goddess, they’ve gotten to you.”

 

Paris: “No...just don’t have enough alcohol.”

 

Madison: “Well I’ll help.”

 

Katie smiles.

 

Gigi: “Shouldn’t you worry about Dillusion first though?”

 

Katie’s eyes widen.

 

Katie: “Oh Goddess....not him.”

 

Johnson: “Alright. New plan? We need to instil fear into the divas and BEAT Dillusion!”

 

Robin rolls her eyes as Katie continues to look concerned before we head back to ringside.

The lights dim and a hush comes over the audience. The big screen suddenly goes static and this static starts to form a shape that all the audience recognizes. The audience starts to boo as they recognize the face of Jason Zero. The face smiles before saying.

The Kingdom Of Old Is Dead.
The Order Has Fallen.
Now Is The Rise Of A New Kingdom,
Of Chaos.

The familiar electric guitar starts playing Crush 40’s “Knight of the Wind” while the boos continue. A few fans raise their lighters, but the camera starts to focus on the entrance way as Bastion Scythe saunters out from the back, stoically glancing out at the capacity crowd. He then starts to walk to the ring before the boos continue and we see Jason Zero walk out from the back with a glowing smile on his face. He just throws his arms out and spins around before smirking and starting to walk forward, much more animated than we’ve seen him.

 

Sharper: “Jason Zero coming out here and this crowd is letting him know what they think of him. For months, he’s worn an eye patch, showing the scars of what Rachel Foxx and Alex Desoubrais Jr. did to him back last summer. But at the End of the Year Special, he just delivered a message to Warren James.”

 

Some stills come up on the screen showing Bastion Scythe standing in the entrance way before showing a shot of Warren James standing in the ring looking at him. We then are shown a still of James telling Scythe to get into the ring before we see a shot of Zero hopping the barricade. Before showing Zero lifting James off and then showing Zero ripping off the eye patch.

 

Dawson: “And those stills tell the story. Jason Zero duping us and earlier that night, he said, he was going to do anything he needed to, to protect his protégé. And Warren James and Bastion Scythe have been at each other’s throats for weeks now.”

 

Sharper: “We all thought it meant using his position on the board through those shares we’ve known Zero has had all year long, but little did we know, he was cleared to get physical again.”

 

Knots: “And now he’s got power in the company and power in the ring. Warren James....you’ve just dove into the fire. I hope you don’t get too burned.”

 

Scythe now stands in the ring as Zero walks around it before walking over to the corner and demanding a microphone. Zero is handed it before he turns and walks back to the middle of the ring. Bastion Scythe just folds his arms and stands behind his mentor as Zero just smirks.

 

Zero: “I told everyone so. I told you all so that you wouldn’t want to mess with Bastion Scythe. And what happens....former champions have come up against him and fell at his hands. I then told you all that I would do ANYTHING to make sure Bastion Scythe fulfills his legacy. I then went right to the board and let Scythe further establish his mystique. And then I said I would defend him and destroy anything that stood in his way....and Warren James found that out the hard way!”

 

The crowd boos as Zero looks around. He just pauses and takes in the response for a moment and then continues.

 

Zero: “See James, you’ve been like a thorn in Bastion Scythe’s foot. And you’re probably wondering why I decided to interject myself at this point, instead of allowing Bastion Scythe to destroy you like we all know he can. And the answer is quite simple...Bastion has other things to concern himself with than the Six Million Dollar Man. Many other things. Because if you haven’t noticed, this man standing behind me has made his name and presence felt against number one contenders and against champions and his time to rule Supreme Championship Wrestling as champion draws near. And he can’t be dealing with individuals like you James, who can’t figure out that you were just collateral damage. You were in the way and a means to an end. No one likes it, but it doesn’t matter. Because we don’t care.”

 

Zero pauses as the crowd boos.

 

Zero: “So Warren, consider this fair warning. You’ve pissed us both off. But while you may not have to worry about Bastion Scythe as he’s got his plans, I’m standing right here. And kid, think about it. Think about how many people have stood in that position of being standing across the ring from me. And now think of how many of them are still here and still wrestling for this company. The fact of the matter is that I will destroy you if you continue to get involved in our business. So this is your chance. Stay away. Go and focus on your own championship pursuits. Maybe you can have a career. Or be stupid. Face us. And see 2011 end it all!”

 

Zero then turns and walks over to the ropes and smiles.

 

Zero: “Try me....”

 

Zero smirks before turning around and Bastion Scythe then turns and goes to move to the ropes before suddenly “Sober” by Tool starts to play throughout the arena. The crowd cheers as Warren James walks out from the back with his manager, Jayde Blanchard. He just glares down at the ring and Jason Zero before Jayde hands him a microphone before she steps back and folds her arms.

 

Zero: “Ah, look. It’s Fester and Marcia! You’re already looking as good as dead!”

 

James just turns and smirks as the crowd responses with a couple of chuckles.

 

Warren: “You know Jason. It’s hard to walk into SCW without hearing about what you’ve done in this company. Sure, you’re a seven time World Champion. Former Tag Champion, US Champion, whatever. It’s great. But it’s a bit interesting to now see you playing bodyguard for a man that you yourself said would destroy everyone. Well, the only reason I’ve been such a snake at your picnic is because he couldn’t get the job done!”

 

Bastion moves forward and Zero just stops him by extending his arm in front of him as the crowd cheers.

 

Warren: “So Jason, since I know plenty on you, allow me to give you one piece of information about who you are dealing with. You’re dealing with Warren James, the Six Million Dollar Man and I don’t back down. I just push forward until I get what I’m looking after. And while, yeah, one day, I’d love me some SCW gold...I’m looking at kicking your guy’s ass until he realizes he’s owed NOTHING.”

 

Warren then takes a step forward before Zero chimes in.

 

Zero: “So Warren, are you then ready to waste six million dollars? Are you then ready to forget about going the world title? Are you ready to be destroyed by the most decorated champion in SCW history? Because Warren, I don’t care whether you won’t take no for an answer. It really doesn’t matter. Because one way or another, I’ll get what I want. And how do I know that? I always have.”

 

Warren just smirks as Blanchard continues to just watch him.

 

Warren: “Let’s test that theory.”

 

Warren James then takes off his coat and hands it to Jayde Blanchard before handing the microphone to her too. She then starts to follow Warren James as he starts to walk to the ring. Bastion Scythe just unfolds his arms, almost waiting for James as the crowd starts to cheer. Zero just walks over to the ropes opposite the ring and leans back.

 

Knots: “He’s nuts!”

 

Sharper: “It’s two against one. I know of Jayde’s background outside of SCW, but still. Bastion and Zero have the advantage at the moment! Don’t do this, kid!”

 

Warren James continues before a number of officials run out from the back. The crowd boos and Zero just smirks as he leans back against the ropes. Bastion Scythe lets out a little snarl as he glances back to Zero and Zero just walks forward and looks at James as James is stopped by the officials. A “Let them Fight!” chant begins as Jayde and James just look up at the ring. James just glares before Zero just smirks.

 

Zero: “Warren...Good try. But kid...you got plenty to learn still. On the streets, you may fight when ya feel like it. But here....we fight when I feel like it.”

 

The crowd boos as “Knight of the Wind” plays throughout the arena. James just looks up at Zero with a cold stare as Scythe also just looks at Zero briefly before turning back to Warren James. Zero just continues to smirk.

 

Sharper: “Jason Zero playing his games with Warren James.”

 

Knots: “Did Jason have them back there? Like he is represented on the board.”

 

Sharper: “Or did he know that Sasha hasn’t been a fan of big brawls and knew she would send them out here. Either way, this is something that Warren James hasn’t had to worry about with Scythe. Scythe does things his way. But Zero does things very differently.”

 

Dawson: “But Warren James wants him and wants to kick his ass!”

 

The scene continues to focus in the ring before cutting backstage.

The scene cuts backstage to see the door of Sasha Drachewych’s office. The scene plays out for a moment before we see Mike Harrison walk out of the room and take a deep breath. He starts to walk forward before we see Marisa Condolesa standing down the hallway.

 

Condolesa: “Mr. Harrison! You were in the owner’s office discussing something with her for a while. What’s going on?”

 

Harrison just runs his hand through his hair.

 

Harrison: “Well the fans are going to be screwed tonight. They don’t get to see Billy Mitchell entertain the world by acting like a drunken fool. He’s been suspended and guess what, that leaves me without a partner!”

 

Condolesa: “But I thought you two hated each other.”

 

Harrison: “Oh hell, I couldn’t stand him. I wanted to throw a bottle of JD into the crowd and see how long he’d fight the fans for it so I’d have a chance to win this. But no, I’ve a bit angered because I’m not getting my crown! Sasha Drachewych decided to break my heart by not allowing me to simply show the world what I am to this company. But whatever. I don’t have time to deal with you. I have other matters to deal with.”

 

Condolesa: “Like?”

 

Harrison starts to walk off.

 

Harrison: “Finding a tag partner!”

 

Harrison then continues to walk down the hallway as Condolesa just watches him leave.

 

Knots: “Find a tag partner?”

 

Sharper: “Billy Mitchell has been suspended according to Harrison and he’s got the opportunity to choose his own partner to face Karnivale later tonight. Oh man. Who is he going to find?”

 

The scene then slowly fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

The scene opens up backstage as we return from commercial to show the SCW interview area. Jessica Winters stands in front of the area and looks at the camera.

 

Jessica: “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the individual who will challenge the SCW Adrenaline Champion later tonight for that title, accompanied by Katelyn Buehler, please welcome James Evans.”

 

The crowd boos as James Evans walks into view with Katelyn Buehler leaning on him and looking up at him.

 

Jessica: “Now James, this is a huge opportunity for you, but a lot of people are wondering if this is the right step after you lost to Masquerade on Breakdown to close out 2010.”

 

James just turns to Jessica before suddenly Katelyn smacks Jessica Winters.

 

Katelyn: “How dare you talk to him like that? How dare you try and take him off his game!”

 

James then grabs Katelyn and pushes her back before turning to Jessica.

 

James: “You’re lucky that’s all she did. But yeah, so I lost to Masquerade. Great. So what. That was December 19th. This is January 5th. And I asked for an opportunity. Sure, Masquerade beat me then, but then again, anything can happen. How many people though that David would beat Starr? That’s right. See, tonight, I’m going to prove anything can happen when I win the Adrenaline Championship and bring gold back home for Katelyn and I to celebrate over. And Helms, sure, he’s got everything going for him. He’s now the World Champion. He’s been on a roll....but those have to end sometime. And this is an opportunity I’ve wanted since I came in that door and entered SCW. Now Chad Evans did nothing for me. Ace Marshall...nothing for me. This is all me. And tonight, I’m going to prove that I’m the Star of tomorrow...not David Helms.”

 

James then turns and glares at Jessica Winters as Jessica glares at Katelyn. Katelyn Buehler then turns and walks off, leading James off camera as we head back to ringside.

Justin Davis vs. Sketch Retro

 

3...

2...

1...

Pyrotechnics shoot out of the top of the ramp as "Awake and Alive" by Skillet begins to play. Justin Davis then comes walking out to a mix reaction of a crowd, wearing his entrance gear; zippered up vest with running pants that reads Davis on both legs. He stands at the top of the ramp looking around the arena, smirks and nods his head. He then finally walks down the ramp, not slapping hands with any fans. Once Davis makes it to the ring he points up to the sky then slides in the ring. And, once he gets in the ring he goes to a random turnbuckle and stands on the second rope, taunting all the fans, then points up to the sky and drops down. Davis now waits in the middle of the ring, stretching, and awaiting for his opponent to come out.

Dawson: And here’s Davis! He’s taken it upon himself to try and take down The Rejected one by one-

Knots: Whatever, Davis got his butt kicked last time; it’ll happen again against Retro…

Dawson: The Rejected need someone to teach them right from wrong, they can’t go around attacking people like it’s nothing!


The instrumental starts to play for Styx's 'Mr Roboto'. From above shines a light and before everyones eyes, as if by magic or teleportation or whatever, Master Roboto stands on the stage wearing his suit and tie, and of course, his helmet. The fans boo like crazy as he adjusts his tie and strolls down the ring.

Roboto: Ladies and gentlemen, may I present none other than the Punk of Prism!

The crowd goes nuts at this but Roboto holds up his hand and waits for them to quiet down.

Roboto: He weighs in at 151 lbs and hails from beyond the Spectrum... Sketch Retro!

'Rainbow In The Dark' begins to play and a a series of strange lights start blasting all around before conjugating in the middle of the stage. Almost as if he is being generated from those lights emerges the man known as Sketch Retro. The young teen slaps hands with the fans before sliding into the ring. He hopes to the first turnbuckle as the fans yell in mixed applause. He hops to the turnbuckle and pulls out a watergun filled with colored liquids of all colors. He shoots them at the audience who become colorful. He then does a backflip landing on his feet and crouching down, waiting for the referee to ring the bell.

Knots: Sketch Retro might look like an explosion in a paint factory but that Roboto knows what he’s talking about; Sketch joining The Rejected was a very smart move!

Dawson: Are you crazy!? Sketch Retro would do so much better with Roboto and The Rejected!

Sharper: Can we just concentrate on the match? The referee’s starting this thing…

The bell rings and Davis looks out into the crowd before turning and sprinting at Sketch, nailing a huge clothesline that takes him right off his feet. The crowd start up a “Davis!” chant as he leans down and pulls Retro up by the hair. On the outside, Roboto is bellowing orders out but it doesn’t help Sketch as Davis grabs him and puts on a head lock, playing up to the fans, who are still cheering.

Sharper: Davis is really dominating early on, Sketch Retro hasn’t had chance to even get started.

In the ring, Davis still has the head lock applied and is really putting the pressure on. Retro tries to punch his way out, but Davis isn’t letting go. With all his strength, Sketch pushes Davis off into the ropes and as he comes back, he nails a dropkick that connects square in the face, sending Davis crashing to the canvas.

Knots: And just like that, Retro takes control!

Sketch, back on his feet, goes for the pin but Davis kicks out before the referee even gets to the ground for the start of the count. Retro smacks the canvas in frustration before jumping to his feet, leaving Davis prone on the canvas. Sketch, trying to capitalize, begins to climb the turnbuckle but he takes too long and while his back is to the middle of the ring, Davis rolls to his feet and rushes into the ropes, causing Sketch to drop; his legs either side of the turnbuckle.

Sharper: Davis showing great ring smarts right there!

Dawson: Retro really knows the meaning of pain after that fall folks.

Knots: Yawn…

Back in the ring, Davis has already made his way over to the corner where Retro sits, split legged, atop of the ring post. Grabbing Retro under the arms, Davis lifts him into the air before running to the centre of the ring and dropping him down into a sit out powerbomb, holding onto the legs as the referee drops down to count.

1…

2…

As the referee raises his hand into the air, Sketch throws all his weight behind his legs and manages to use his momentum to roll Davis backwards so that he is sat on Davis’ chest and the referee counts the pin attempt.

1…

Tw…

Davis kicks out with enough force to send Retro flying across the ring and into the corner. On the outside, Roboto is furious at the referee’s slow counting and slams his fists on the apron out of frustration.

Sharper: Two pin counts in quick succession, this match is closer than anyone would imagine!

Knots: Davis is only drawing out the inevitable…

Dawson: Davis knows how this game goes; Sketch Retro needs to be much quicker if he wants to catch him out here…

Davis is on his knees catching his breath, glaring at Sketch as he climbs to his feet. As Davis stands up, Sketch bounces off the ropes and runs at him but Davis sees him coming and drops to the canvas, sending Retro crashing over the ropes on the opposite side. Somehow, Sketch manages to catch hold of the top rope and steady himself, landing stood on the apron with his back to the announce table but he doesn’t look up in time to avoid the charging Justin Davis, who dives through the ropes and spears him to the outside and the pair crash to the mats outside.

Dawson: Oh my god! I think Davis just broke Retro in half!

Knots: Davis is an idiot, I hope he hit his head on the way down!

The referee leans over the ropes, checking on both men but neither are moving and he has no choice but to start the count.

1.

3.

Davis, coughing and spluttering, rolls over onto his back but he still doesn’t get up; Retro is holding his head in both hands, clearly in some pain.

4.

5.

As the referee reaches five, Davis drags himself to his feet using the ring apron. He grabs hold of the ropes and pulls himself upwards so that he’s on the ring apron (6). On the outside, Retro is still down but has managed to roll onto his back, his face shows how much pain that he is in, his features all contorted. As the referee continues to count(7), Davis has climbed back into the ring and is sat in the corner watching the referee count. On the outside, Sketch is on his knees but is having trouble pulling him self up (8) but Roboto refuses to let his protégée lose by count out, pulling Sketch to his feet and rolling him back into the ring.

Knots: See, I told you Master Roboto knew what he was doing! Sketch would be down and out if it wasn’t for him.

Sharper: Sketch certainly was cutting it close there, the referee had reached eight before Roboto rolled him back in the ring…

Dawson: Davis needs to go for the pin, Sketch is down for the count!

In the ring, Davis pulls Sketch away from the ropes and goes for the pin.

1.

2.

Thre…

Retro shoots his shoulder up just before the three, which seems to anger Davis. He pulls Sketch up by the hair again and whips him into the corner before throwing an arm in the air, sending the crowd insane. He then turns and sprints into the corner, nailing a huge clothesline that sends Sketch’s head snapping back with a huge amount of force.

Dawson: Davis is angry that he hasn’t quite done enough to get the three there…

Sharper: And now he’s taking that anger out in the corner!

 

Davis begins hammering away with a series of hard rights, relentlessly hammering away at Retro who seems completely out of it. With a final punch, Davis spins round so that his back is to Retro and throws his arms out wide, yelling to the crowd to get them behind him. With his back to Sketch, he doesn’t notice Roboto starts yelling at his protégé, bringing him out of his daze. Retro realises that Davis is distracted and as Davis turns round, Retro nails a huge paylay kick, hitting Davis square in the head.

Knots: Yes! That’s how you take out an arrogant good for nothing like Davis!

Back in the ring, Davis collapses into a heap in the middle of the canvas, falling on his back. Retro jumps to the top rope and pushes his hair out of his face before leaping from the turnbuckle into a shooting star press, landing into an elbow drop that rocks Davis to the core.

Sharper: Sketch Retro with the Blast From The Past, a phenomenal feat of aerial ability from the young punk of Prism there!

Dawson: And it looks like this one could be over folks…

Knots: Yes!

As Sketch gets to his feet, he grabs and Davis and lifts him up. He tries to set him up for a suplex but Davis manages to kick him straight in the stomach. Davis grabs Sketch by the head and throws Sketch’s arm around his neck before lifting him up into a suplex.

Dawson: End it Justin, put him away!

Sharper: If Davis nails the Lip Sealer, this is all over…

David doesn’t have time to end the match because Sketch uses his momentum to drop down again behind him. Spinning him around, Sketch grabs Davis by the head and throws it under his arm, before hooking the leg and lifting him into the air. Sketch holds Davis up for a couple of seconds before dropping to the canvas, planting Davis back first between his legs with the Retrograde. Retro goes for the pin.

1.

2.

3!!!

The referee calls for the bells as Sketch rolls off. Rainbow In The Dark plays again as Roboto starts nodding and clapping. The fans begin to boo madly at the result.

Knots: Yes! A win for Sketch Retro and another victory for The Rejected. I told you that Lawler and his friends had nothing to offer!

Sharper: Sketch pulled it back with a hard fought victory over a Justin Davis that just can’t find his form…

Dawson: Davis should have had this in the bag, he was clear favourite to win here. Sketch got lucky and The Rejected still need stopping…

Sketch slides out of the ring and meets his manager Mister Roboto, who pats him on the back as they begin to make their way up the ramp.

The scene opens up backstage as we see David Helms, now in his wrestling gear, and holding both the SCW World and Adrenaline Championships over his shoulders. Kathryn Helms follows him as they start to walk down the hallway. The crowd cheers after seeing them.

 

Sharper: “And there is the new World Champion, but also the reigning and defending Adrenaline Champion tonight, David Helms.”

 

Dawson: “And in just a few moments, he will face James Evans and defend the Adrenaline Championship.”

 

Helms continues on his way to the ring before he stops and takes a couple more steps before Jake Starr is seen standing in front of him. The crowd gives a mixed reaction. Kathryn then grabs Helms on the shoulder.

 

Kathryn: “Come on David.”

 

David: “It’s alright. Hey Jake.”

 

Starr just smiles.

 

Starr: “Hey Dave. Congratulations on being champion.”

 

David: “Thanks.”

 

Starr: “Look, I’ll put it this way. I don’t take back anything I’ve done. It’s what I do. But maybe things have a gotten a bit out of line. I’m not a fan of whatever you have with Syren and I’m sure you know that.”

 

David: “That’s an understatement.”

 

Starr: “Let me finish...”

 

David just makes a motion indicating that.

 

Starr: “You’d be concerned too if you almost had your career ended at the hands of her and her friends. And I don’t forget that. BUT....I’ll have your back tonight if you want it.”

 

David: “Thanks...that means a lot.”

 

Starr: “But...there’s one more thing. I’ll say it now. I think I can beat you. I’m wondering if you want to do it again, at Body, Heart and Soul. You and I, for the title. What do you say? This time...no games. We’ll just go out there and fight our hearts out.”

 

David glances back to his wife before turning back to Starr. He smirks.

 

David: “I think it can be done. We’ll talk about it later. Now if you excuse me...”

 

Starr: “Good luck.”

 

David Helms and Kathryn Helms walk past Starr and start to walk down the hallway. Kathryn gives Jake a bit of a glare. Starr just watches them go as the camera focuses on him.

 

Dawson: “Did David Helms just agree to a rematch?”

 

Sharper: “I think so. Starr vs. Helms? I’ll take it. But was there an apology in that?”

 

Knots: “Pfft....Starr can’t apologize!”

 

Dawson: “Well in any case, Helms will defend the Adrenaline Championship against James Evans when we return. Don’t go anywhere!”

COMMERCIAL:

James Evans vs. David Helms

SCW Adrenaline Championship

 

The arena lights go dark, before pyro shoots off and the chorus of “Coward” blares through the PA system and James Evans makes his way out to the stage, as the crowd begins to shower their boos, mixing in with the music. Katelyn Buehler and Chad Evans both walk out with him as Chad just glares. Katelyn meanwhile skips up to James and goes to hook his arm, but James pulls away, focusing on the ring and his match. James Evans looks around and shrugs his shoulders, before making his way down to the ring, slapping hands with a few of the fans. He leans into the crowd once, as he stands a few feet away from the ring, before sliding inside the squared circle. James backs himself into the corner opposite of his opponent and begins to clench and unclench his fists, pumping himself up. Chad just walks around the ring and leans against the apron as Katelyn walks over to stand behind James.

 

Sharper: “James Evans getting an opportunity here. One has to think that Masquerade would have had this having defeated James on the last Breakdown of 2010, but perhaps Masquerade has other plans.”

 

Dawson: “Either way, James Evans, despite having Katelyn Buehler and Chad Evans out here with him, has an uphill battle. David Helms has been on a roll and first and foremost, he’s the new World Champion too.”

 

Sharper: “David Helms uniting the Adrenaline and World Championships for the first time since last year at this time when Jake Starr held both.”

 

WHEN DID YOU LAST MAKE A CHOICE THAT HAD A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE?

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

WHAT IF THAT CHOICE ISOLATED YOU FROM EVERYONE THAT YOU HELD DEAR, WOULD YOU BUCKLE UNDER THE PRESSURE?

The room is electric as the sound of thunder continues to roll through the arena, whipping the crowd into a wild frenzy.

WOULD YOU DO THE RIGHT THING OR WOULD YOU TOW THE LINE LIKE THE REST OF THE CROWD?

As the thunder storm rolls to a crescendo the entire stage lights up with brilliant bright light in time with the final crack of lightning. The opening riff from a remixed version of “All I Want” by A Day To Remember hits the pa system as the crowd realise that David Helms is now stood on the stage; only his silhouette viewable as a result of the blinding white light shining from behind him. As the intro draws to a close, Helms throws his arms into the air, his hands held together in the Self High Five.

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

The intro gives way to the chorus of the song, the lyrics of which flash up on the screen, as Helms jumps in the air, breaking his hands apart. As he lands, fireworks erupt on either side of the stage before the arena’s lights come back on. Kathryn Helms, who was stood directly behind her husband, holds her hands in the Self High Five before slowly breaking them apart her self and smiling.

Phillips: Ladies and Gentlemen, making his way to the ring, from Red Bank New Jersey, he is the current Supreme Championship Wrestling Adrenaline champion and WORLD Champion, DAVID HELMS!

Helms, his SCW Adrenaline Title fastened around his waist, the SCW World Championship over his shoulder, begins to walk down the ramp; hiving fiving with fans as he makes his way to the ring. As he gets to the apron, Helms slides under the rope and runs over to the nearest ring post where he jumps up onto the second turnbuckle and throws his arms out wide on either side. As Kathryn climbs up onto the ring apron, the crowd are going completely nuts for Helms, the self professed Last Shadow of Hope, who drops down from the ring post and runs across to the opposite side, once again climbing to the second turnbuckle. Hitting the self high five one last time, Helms jumps into the air and lands in the middle of the ring before walking over to the side of the ring where he wife leans on the ropes. Kathryn kisses her husband before dropping down to the outside, leaving Helms to lean back on the ropes and wait for the start of the match. He then turns and hands the Adrenaline Championship to the official who turns and holds it over his head as the SCW Adrenaline Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner. The crowd cheers as the officials hands the title off before walking back to the middle of the ring.

 

Sharper: “Here we go. David Helms has been a defending Adrenaline Champion and making a name for himself there.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. He put Stacy Kissinger in the hospital!”

 

Sharper: “Stop it. Stacy Kissinger had other medical issues missed by medical professionals. We’re still waiting on the final word about whether she’ll be competing tonight.”

 

The bell sounds and the crowd cheers before James Evans runs out of the corner and dives at the feet of David Helms. Helms sidesteps him before turning and going to grab at the head of James, but James rolls through and into a quick pin.

 

1!

 

Helms rolls through and both get up and James quickly runs past Helms. Helms spins around to catch James, but James jumps up and takes him down with a crossbody.

Helms kicks out again. Both men get back up and James kicks Helms in the ribs before clubbing him in the back. He then wrenches the arm, but Helms nails him with a straight right hand to the jaw. James nearly crumples down to his knees, but stays up and Helms kicks him in the ribs before double underhooking him and throwing him over with a quick suplex. He then turns and goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

James kicks out and rolls over before getting to the ropes. Katelyn runs around the ring as Kathryn just watches Katelyn Buehler. David grabs at James before slowly lifting him up and James nails him with a back elbow. David stumbles back.

 

Sharper: “Hard shot to the jaw with that elbow.”

 

Dawson: “James Evans is desperately trying to quicken the pace. One thing we haven’t thought about is that James Evans is considerably fresher than Helms. Helms competed in a hell of a match against Starr just five nights ago.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and James Evans last competed two and a half weeks ago on December 19th!”

 

Sharper: “Well look out!”

 

James then springs off the middle rope and nails David with another twisting crossbody into another pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Helms kicks out. James rolls through and gets up. He then turns and runs into the ropes. Helms gets up and James just quickly hits a swinging neckbreaker. James then gets up and smiles before walking over to the ropes. He bounces off them before jumping up and hitting a leg drop to the head of the World and Adrenaline Champion. He sits up Helms and then kicks him in the back. Helms winces and James then turns and runs into the ropes in front of Helms before just somersaulting into Helms, knocking him down. He follows up with a pin attempt.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Helms gets his shoulder off the canvas. Kathryn Helms starts to pound the mat, trying to get the crowd behind Helms. The crowd obliges her as James grabs Helms by the arm and jerks on it. He then turns and pulls it back to the corner and then steps on the middle turnbuckle before jumping over and landing on the apron, driving Helms’ arm hard into the top rope. Helms turns and shakes out his arm as James just starts to climb back up to the top rope. Chad looks relatively unimpressed as Katelyn Buehler whistles and cheers on James.

 

Sharper: “James Evans going to the top rope. Helms is holding his arm in pain.”

 

Knots: “James came in here with a strategy and its destination is Adrenaline Championship or bust!”

 

Helms turns around and James Evans dives forward grabs the head and arm of Helms before forcing him down with a variation of an armbreaker DDT. Helms rolls over in pain and James goes for the pin, hooking the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Helms kicks out and the crowd cheers. A “Helms!” chant begins as Kathryn Helms continues to will on her husband. James looks up at the crowd and glares at them before slowly lifting Helms back up. He then takes him over with a snapmare before pulling him down and kneeing his arm. James then turns and turns Helms over and seems to be looking for the tequila sunrise, but Helms manages to turn his body a bit and reach up before pulling James Evans back with a school boy.

 

1!

 

2!

 

James kicks out. Helms falls back. He then starts to get up and James gets back up before walking over to Helms. He grabs him in a waistlock before clubbing him in the back. He then quickly turns back to the arm and Helms holds onto the ropes, necessitating a break. The referee calls for the break, but James kicks him in the ribs and pushes Helms to the ropes before whipping him across the ring. Helms bounces off the ropes and James attempts a clothesline, but Helms ducks and stops before James turns around and Helms jumps up and hits a spin kick to the jaw, knocking James Evans down.

 

Sharper: “Shades of the Nightmare on Helms Street!”

 

Dawson: “Hit him in the jaw. No chair. That would be a disqualification, but still effective nonetheless!”

 

James starts to get up and Helms quickly gets up and dropkicks him in the back of the head. James falls forward and into the middle rope. Katelyn Buehler starts to walk around before Kathryn sees this and walks around the ring too. Helms meanwhile runs over to the ropes before slingshotting himself over and leg dropping James in the back of the head. Katelyn just looks up at Helms as Helms locks eyes with her. He then turns back to Kathryn and Kathryn backs up too. James meanwhile is down in the ring and Helms turns and shakes out his arm before climbing up to the top rope as best as he can. He then glances back at James before diving back and hitting a moonsault. He nearly falls off, but then falls forward and into a pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

James gets his shoulder up. Helms rolls off and holds his arm. He then punches it a few times before shaking it out and getting up. James Evans rolls over slowly and Helms then sees an opportunity before running into the ropes and running at James Evans, drilling him with a shining wizard. The crowd cheers.

 

Knots: “Jesus! Nearly took his head off.”

 

Sharper: “Shining Wizard. Down goes James Evans!”

 

Dawson: “Katelyn Buehler is frantically running around the ring as Chad Evans just is standing there watching!”

 

Katelyn starts to walk around before looking at James before Helms gets up and looks out at the crowd. The crowd cheers. He then smiles before turning and exiting to the apron. He starts to climb up to the top rope and looks over at James Evans. He steadies himself at the top and then dives forward and attempts a shooting star press, getting awe from the crowd, but James rolls out of the way. Helms narrowly manages to stay on his feet before falling to his knees. He gets up and James then grabs him and takes him over with a northern lights suplex into a bridge.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Helms kicks out. Both men roll over and start to get up and Helms turns to James Evans before James nails him with a spin kick to the head. The crowd ohs and Helms just falls to his hands and knees. James Evans then stumbles over to the corner. He then starts to climb up to the top rope.

 

Sharper: “James Evans with a hard kick to the side of Helms head.”

 

Knots: “He may not make it to their little confrontation of CHBK later tonight after that. And James is going high-risk.”

 

Sharper: “To the top James Evans goes. He may be looking for the final blow as Helms is slow to stay standing on his feet!”

 

Helms slowly pulls himself up and James Evans gets to the top rope and glances back, before Helms manages to get up and fall over to him and grabs him and pulls him back, such that he sits on his shoulders. Helms then falls back and throws Evans back with the electric chair drop. The crowd ohs and Helms rolls over. The crowd cheers as James Evans rolls over in pain. David Helms then turns and walks over to the corner. He then starts to climb up to the top rope as James Evans starts to get up. Helms glances over before checking on Katelyn Buehler only for Chad Evans to jump up onto the apron. Helms quickly turns and kicks him off the apron as the crowd cheers. He then turns to James Evans only for James to run hard into the ropes. Helms hits hard and crotches himself on the top rope before flipping forward. He starts to get up and James Evans quickly scoops him up as he’s dazed only to then drop him with the Final Exam. The crowd boos and James Evans covers him as Kathryn yells at the referee about Chad Evans.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars and then boos loudly as James Evans rolls over and lifts his arm in the air. The crowd continues to boo before Katelyn Buehler slides into the ring and goes over to James and hugs him. Chad Evans just watches from the floor and smirks before just watching. The referee meanwhile goes over and hands James Evans the SCW Adrenaline Championship as Helms winces in pain.

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe it. It wasn’t Katelyn that got involved! It was Chad!”

 

Knots: “And it doesn’t matter! 2011....Chad Evans has led one of his followers to SCW Gold!”

 

Sharper: “Give me a break. They just screwed over Helms to start off the year. They just waited for their shot!”

 

Helms starts to get up as James Evans and Katelyn Buehler continue to celebrate in the middle of the ring. James holds the title over his head before Helms pulls himself up and walks over to James and looks at him. James Evans turns and Katelyn Buehler does too and Helms extends his hand to the new champion.

 

Dawson: “Wow. Even with James Evans taking advantage of Chad Evans’ interference, Helms looking to shake the man’s hand.”

 

James looks at it and looks down as the crowd roars. Chad Evans sees this and then takes the opportunity to slide into the ring. Helms continues to watch James and Katelyn before suddenly Chad low blows Helms. Helms drops down as the crowd boos. Chad then steps back and looks before smirking. James Evans and Katelyn both look a bit shocked before smiling at Chad. But as he does this, the crowd roars as we see Jake Starr actually run down from the back. He bolts down and slides into the ring as James Evans and Katelyn Buehler back up and exit the ring. Chad just looks at Jake before snarling and rolling out of the ring himself. Kathryn then slides in and goes over to Helms who winces before turning. Chad Evans rejoins James Evans and Katelyn Buehler as James Evans holds up the title. The crowd boos as they start to walk up the ramp to the back.

 

Sharper: “Jake Starr kept his word. He just came out and defended Helms.”

 

Dawson: “Yeah, but Helms’ nature getting him in a bit of trouble. Regardless, Jake Starr at least standing by his former Brotherhood cohort.”

 

Sharper: “Well, the games may be done, but there is still a bit of reluctance between those two. But Jake Starr coming out...I’m not going to say anything bad about it. Who knows what James Evans, Chad Evans and Katelyn Buehler would have done if he didn’t come out.”

 

Knots: “Nothing. Nothing at all. They are honourable human beings!”

 

Sharper: “Yeah, sure!”

 

James, Chad and Katelyn continue their celebration to the back as Starr starts to help Helms up as Kathryn holds Helms up too. Helms just glares before turning and nodding to his wife and then looking at Starr and walking forward and the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns as we return to the office of Sasha Drachewych, door closed, to see the door swing open and Masquerade walk out from the office. He smirks as he holds a piece of paper in his hand. He then continues to walk off as the crowd cheers a bit seeing him. He then walks off camera.

 

Dawson: “Masquerade now leaving the office of Sasha. She’s been quite busy tonight.”

 

Knots: “And quite secretive too!”

 

The scene then changes.

We open up in the locker room of Chad Evans and his followers as Chad Evans stands in the corner smirking as James Evans holds the Adrenaline Championship. Katelyn Buehler is almost all over him as Ace Marshall also leans back against the wall.

 

Ace: “Well how about that, you actually did something.”

 

Katelyn: “Ha! You’re just jealous because he won the title and you didn’t!”

 

Katelyn smirks.

 

Ace: “Well, I can get the same treatment you’re giving him for less, so really, is it worth it?”

 

Katelyn: “You would be lucky to have me.”

 

Chad: “Here we go.”

 

James then turns and stops Katelyn as Ace just smirks.

 

James: “Hey! Can’t I have this moment? I’m Adrenaline Champion...it’s the start of greatness!”

 

Ace: “Is that what we’re calling it? By Katelyn’s grinding, I’d say it’s the start of syphilis!”

 

Katelyn: “Why you-“

 

James: “Hey! Stop it!”

 

Ace: “Well you are a winner. She...well-“

 

Katelyn: “That’s it!”

 

James then holds Katelyn back. Katelyn just calms down a bit as James then turns and looks at Chad.

 

James: “Not going to help?”

 

Chad: “Why? You seem to be fine. Plus, I did my good deed for the day.”

 

James just looks confused.

 

Ace: “Yeah, Chad. I thought you didn’t care about us. So why now? Why’d you help the man-whore win?”

 

James glares at Ace.

 

Chad: “For fun. Leave it. Now.”

 

Just then there’s a knock at the door. James then turns and walks over.

 

James: “Heh...probably an interview with their new Adrenaline Champion.”

 

Katelyn: “Oh, that’s so hot.”

 

James walks over to the door before opening it and suddenly is nailed with a hard right. James falls back as the crowd cheers and Ace steps over him and to the floor. Aaron Rupp is seen standing in front of the door before he backs away.

 

Rupp: “Consider that your payback for last Breakdown. Ashamed I did it, but screw it, you morons deserved it.”

 

Rupp then walks off as Ace glances back. Katelyn is trying to do CPR, but James blocks it.

 

James: “Get off of me!”

 

Ace: “Well...how about that....Rupp grew a set.....and Katelyn, you’re not supposed to use tongue!”

 

Katelyn: “Come on! You know you want it!”

 

Ace just shakes his head as the scene suddenly changes.

We open up outside of the locker room of Greg Cherry to see Marisa Condolesa standing next to Greg Cherry. The crowd cheers seeing him and he can be seen just looking forward as Condolesa turns to him.

 

Condolesa: “I am here with Greg Cherry, and later tonight, you’re facing Brittany Lohan to kick off your 2011, but especially after what happened at the End of the Year Special, it seems like your focus is more and more on Shawn Winters.”

 

Greg then looks up at Marisa. Marisa just pauses.

 

Greg: “You know Marisa. Have you ever had to spend a Christmas without your family....your closest friends....all because of a stupid decision. A decision say someone close to you gave you in order to fire you up and you still blew it.”

 

Marisa: “I can’t say I have.”

 

Greg: “Then you have no right to even consider questioning what I’m doing.”

 

Greg snaps before pausing again.

 

Greg: “Shawn Winters has been having far too much fun trying to get into my head, playing off the fact that I had to spend the holiday season alone, with only my thoughts. No World Championship. No seeing my son....and no seeing my wife. All because I made a bet with her. Now, I realize some people may question that, but I’m don’t need that. Not to mention, that Shawn Winters time after time after time again crosses the line. But we’re not shocked. That’s what Shawn always does. So maybe it’s time to shut him up for good.”

 

Marisa: “What are you talking about Greg?”

 

Greg: “Well Marisa....To Shawn Winters....you want to sit there and preen about how you’ve got everything I don’t. Well, if you want to keep opening your mouth, then you have to deal with the consequences. Body, Heart and Soul....I want you in the ring. I want to destroy you. I want to take away what you care so much about...your ability to be yourself. So Shawn....let me know...but just know this...one way or another, I will get my hands on you. No handcuffs. No police taking me away. And no locked doors to protect yourself. And when that moment comes, you’re going to pray to whatever God you believe in to save you!”

 

Greg then pauses before looking at the camera.

 

Greg: “And Shawn, I’m going to make sure that it won’t only be my life that’s the pits....but yours too. Try me....It’s not like I have anything left to lose!”

 

Greg just looks at the camera for a few moments longer before turning and walking back into his locker room. Marisa Condolesa just turns to the camera.

 

Marisa: “Thank you Greg. We’ll see what Shawn Winters has to say, hopefully some time tonight.”

 

The scene then focuses on Marisa for a moment before changing again.

The scene opens in the locker room of Karnivale to see Shilo Valiant and Marina Trent talking in the corner, almost as if they’re on some sort of date, trying to catch up on what not before Masquerade walks in with a smile on his face. Claire Voyant looks over to him as Shilo glances back.

 

Shilo: “Masq...where have you been? Claire was wondering.”

 

Masquerade: “Oh nowhere....just getting some paper.”

 

Shilo: “Paper?”

 

Masquerade: “Well this.”

 

Masquerade then throws the paper down in front of Shilo. Shilo looks at it, unfolding it before reading it.

 

Shilo: “Is this what I think it is?”

 

Masquerade just nods.

 

Shilo: “You negotiated a contract for a shot at MY United States Championship.”

 

Masquerade nods again.

 

Claire: “Masq!”

 

Shilo just smirks.

 

Masquerade: “Look. You’re the one saying you’ll take any and all. I’m not looking to screw you over or anything. I’ve earned the shot and well, I’m sick of waiting for someone else to give me it. So I went to Sasha and figured I’d take advantage of trying for something new to kick off 2011....an all Karnivale US championship match!”

 

Shilo: “Well...uh...I’m not against it. I’m just....why didn’t you ask me? I’d gladly face you. That’s real entertainment for these fans.”

 

Masquerade just smirks.

 

Masquerade: “That’s why I was waiting...”

 

Shilo: “Oh....well....”

 

Masquerade: “Sign it Shilo. Sign it and it’s official. The Full Metal Maverick challenges the Necromerchant for the SCW United States Championship. It’ll be bigger than Rachel versus Dillusion, Jake Starr versus David Helms or whatever is happening in the Women’s division.”

 

Marina: “Excuse me?!”

 

Masquerade: “Oh yeah...well...uh....sorry!”

 

Shilo: “You know what. You’re on. Claire?”

 

Claire walks over with a pen. He grabs it and leans forward and signs it. He then slides the contract back to Masquerade.

 

Shilo: “May the best man win.”

 

Masquerade: “Oh I intend to. SEE WHAT I DID THERE!”

 

Claire just shakes her head.

 

Shilo: “Well we’ll see. In any case, we have a tag match to prepare for.”

 

Shilo then turns to Marina.

 

Shilo: “Don’t go anywhere?”

 

Marina: “Not if I don’t have to.”

 

Marina smiles as Shilo gets up and Masquerade smiles before taking the contract and smiling and then singing.

 

Masquerade: “I’ve got a title shot. I’ve got a title shot! I’ve got a title shot! Woooo!”

 

Shilo just chuckles a bit as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Andrew Samuel Pugh vs. Blake Mason

 

Breakdown returns and a camera gets a shot of the announce table. The crowd is cheering for the fact that Friday Night Ammo commentator and hometown man Jay Gold has joined Dawson, Sharper and Knots at ringside. Jay gets himself situated and dons a spare headset, sitting to the other side of Dawson, the furthest away from Knots.

Knots: “Okay, what are YOU doing here Gold? Didn’t you know you’re only supposed to be commentating on Ammo?”

Gold: “Didn’t you know that I was invited here tonight to call this match by Sasha herself?”

Sharper: “Alright you two, enough. She invited Jay to be here and he’s more than welcome. Besides, the crowd doesn’t seem to object.”

 

Dawson: “Well since you are here, we may as well quickly mention that the first Friday Night Ammo of 2011 will be on January 14 and a huge night there. Christian Savior will face Chad Evans and a huge women’s tag match. Ducky and Syren will face Katelyn Buehler and Marina Trent.”

 

Gold: “Katie Steward will be watching that one. That’s for sure. Can’t wait!”

The light really dim in the Times Union Center as ASP's theme, “Song Over” by Drake blasts through the PA system.

I know way too many people here right now that I didn’t know last year
who the f-ck are y’all
I swear it feels like the last few nights we’ve been everywhere and back
but I just can’t remember it all
what am I doing, what am I doing

As the chorus begins to play, ASP, Andrew Samuel Pugh struts out to the ramp, with his manager Destiny Sky, and plays to the crowd, receiving decent heel heat from the fans. ASP slowly walks down to the ring, showing off his Generation Supreme t-shirt as Destiny slowly follows him. ASP slides into the ring and holds the middle rope up for his girlfriend to step inside. He then proceeds to stand in the middle of the ring and pose; gathering further boos as Destiny Sky just admires him before taking her leave from the ring and picking a ringside position out for herself.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall, already in the ring, from Cleveland, Ohio, weighing in at 225 pounds…being accompanied to the ring by Destiny Sky…Andrew Samuel Pugh!”

Dawson: “Well, Andrew Samuel Pugh is out here to try to pick up a win. With the rest of Generation Supreme seeming very dormant when it comes to competing in the ring as of late, this is a good chance for Pugh to show the entire SCW that he can indeed make some waves.”

Knots: “Eh. I doubt he will. Besides, his opponent is far more impressive, and said opponent was even on hiatus for quite a while. I agree with this opponent when he said this match shouldn’t even be happening.”

Sharper: “But it is.”

Gold: “Indeed. I know for certain it won’t be a match of the year candidate or anything like that, but this match is for two athletes that are looking to really break out of their shell.”

Knots looks like he’s about to comment when the lights dim a bit more and “Perfection or Vanity” by Dimmu Borgir plays as Blake Mason struts out from the backstage area.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from Boston, Massachusetts, weighing in at 230 pounds…Blake Mason!”

Blake walks halfway down the ramp. Blake stops to absorb the reaction he's getting before he continues his slow and steady path to the ring. He slides into the ring and walks over to the nearest turnbuckle and stretches, all the while ignoring Pugh as the crowd boos for Blake Mason and his warm-up routine. Blake ignores them too before he finally glances over at the referee assigned to this match and tells him that he’s ready. The referee nods and calls for the bell to be rung and as soon as it is, Pugh seems to zero in his focus right away on Blake, but doesn’t run right at him like a madman. As for Blake, he looks at Pugh for the first time before gesturing for Pugh to go for the first shot.

Gold: “Interesting, he’s allowing ASP to throw the first punch.”

Sharper: “Yeah, but it doesn’t look like he’s falling for it.”

Pugh still hangs back until finally both run at one another. Both stick their arms out far and are able to clothesline one another at the same time.

Dawson: “Both thinking the same thing in that instance.”

Knots: “It’ll probably be the closest ASP will be to a victory for the rest of the match. Blake Mason clearly is his superior. Why he pushed everyone’s favorite Southern chick to near her limit. Which she still does owe him something…”

Dawson: “We’ve been over this Jonathan. Kissinger owes Mason nothing. He got involved in her business, thus Pugh’s as well.”

Gold: “And Stacy handled her business with Blake. Tonight, it’s ASP’s turn.”

Both men roll away from one another before beginning to get up, almost simultaneously. Before either can get a shot in on the other, both men get back to a complete vertical base. Pugh then goes to deliver an uppercut to Blake’s jaw, but Blake blocks it just in time before returning fire with a shoulder block right into the ribcage of Pugh. Andrew doubles over and Blake nods and smiles.

Knots: “There you go Blake. Put this match in the bag early! Show ASP that he’ll always mean nothing and be nothing!”

The other trio of announcers have no comment as Blake starts to go to work on his opponent. Blake fires Pugh to the opposite side of the ring, but Pugh is able to put on the brakes, avoiding a collision with the turnbuckle padding in the corner that Blake sent him off towards. However by the time Pugh turns around, Blake meets him with a gauge to the eyes. The referee warns Blake but Blake just scuffs at the warning before grabbing Pugh and pulling him towards him. The crowd boos Mason a good bit as he locked on a three-quarter facelock. He holds it there for a few moments before dropping Pugh to the mat with a Russian Leg Sweep, while looking in the direction of the announce table. As soon as Pugh’s head hits the mat Blake looks around the arena with a smug look before he snatches Pugh from the canvas and hooks him up for a Northern Lights Suplex before completing it successfully. Blake bridges into a pinning attempt.

Dawson: “This one might be over here…”

Knots: “Finally Jim is starting to see the light!”

The referee gets into a position to count the pin, then counts.

1!

2!

Pugh kicks out before 3. Blake is forced to roll away from his opponent, which gives Andrew the amount of time he needs to scramble back to his feet. Pugh does get back to his feet first and runs at Blake, tackling him back down to the canvas even though Blake was almost up to his feet. Pugh, while on top of Blake, unleashes some overhead punches to the chest before chopping Mason’s bare chest once. Pugh then stands up and begins to bring Blake to his feet. He brings him up enough to attempt to go for a bulldog, but Blake sees it coming and protects himself by lowering his torso. Pugh however hangs on to his grasp of Blake and is able to deliver a modified bulldog, planting Blake to the mat head first. Pugh rolls Blake over for a cover.

1!

2!

Blake kicks out.

Gold: “I guess someone at this announce table stands corrected. Because now THAT is the closest ASP has been to winning this one.”

Knots: “Meh. I call them like I see them. I’m not afraid to be wrong once in a while, Gold.”

Pugh gets to his feet before bringing Blake up to his feet some, setting up for and delivering a successful German Suplex. Pugh stays attached to Blake and follows up that suplex with another, although this time of the release variety. Blake’s back hits the canvas and he can feel the pain shooting up his back as Pugh goes for another cover.

Dawson: “Snap Suplex and now a cover! Pugh taking it to him here. He’s really put a few decent moves together!”

Knots: “Watch. It won’t be enough.”

The referee counts the fall in front of him.

1!

2!

Thr-

Blake kicks out and rolls over, shooting a menacing glance at his opponent. Pugh isn’t frightened at all though but stands up ready to take Blake on, seeing that Blake is also rising to his feet. Blake takes a wild swing at Pugh and misses. Pugh leaps a small bit and goes for a missile dropkick to Blake, but Blake is able to see it just in the nick of time and grabs at Pugh’s feet, twisting them and making sure that Pugh lands on the canvas in front of him. Blake grins now.

Sharper: “And so the match begins to turn in the favor of Blake Mason. One mistake is all it takes.”

Knots: “Hey. I called it! I said it would happen eventually!”

Blake snatches Pugh from the canvas and shows that he too can hit a variety of suplexes by first victimizing his opponent with a Cravate Suplex, then holding on and wrapping a leg inside ASP’s before nailing him with a leg hook Saito suplex. The fans oh and are amazed with the move, but Blake isn’t done. He completes a successful third suplex, this time his second Northern Lights Suplex of the match, bridged into a pin, just as he did earlier. The referee counts.

1!

2!

Pugh is able to kick out, avoiding another loss on his record, at least to this point.

Knots: “And Blake outdoes ASP in the suplex department, just like he will when this match finally comes to an end with Blake Mason on top!”

Sharper: “Both have shown that they’re good with suplexes, but suplexes clearly aren’t enough to keep either one of these wrestlers down.”

Gold: “One’s never kept anyone down really Adam. They’re easy to kick out of.”

Blake removes himself from Pugh and gets right to his feet, watching as Pugh stammers a bit slowly to his feet, but is unable to stand up completely so he drops to a knee. The crowd noise builds a little as they see that Blake has his opportunity to possibly put this match away. Blake backs himself into a corner of the ring, readies himself then runs fast at Pugh, booting him right in the face with the Failure to Launch.

Knots: “YES! There it is! Failure to Launch! ASP’s done now!”

Knots looks proud at himself as Pugh is laid out on the canvas. Blake hooks the leg of Pugh and goes for another cover.

1!

2!

3!!!

The crowd boos for Blake Mason as “Perfection or Vanity” by Dimmu Borgir plays. Jay Gold stands up at the announce table ready to leave as Blake Mason has his arm raised by the referee in the ring. Jonathan Knots however speaks up just as Jay is about ready to get his headset off.

Knots: “Well Gold, I would say it was nice of you to stop by, but I’d be lying. Also while I’m at it, there’s more than enough proof to say that even a retarded monkey can beat ASP! Case in point…Stacy Kissinger!”

Sharper and Dawson are both shaking their heads, but Gold takes a step towards Knots before replying with his rebuttal.

Gold: “You know Jonathan, you should do your job and just commentate on the matches going on in the ring. That’s what we do on Friday Night Ammo. We don’t try to demean the SCW roster! But since this isn’t Ammo and it’s obviously the way things are done here on Breakdown these days, it’s bad enough CHBK doesn’t know his proper place, but it sure seems you don’t either!”

Knots: “You know what you’re going to do about it, Gold? NOTHING! You retired. Now go run back to Ammo and cry, but before you do, make sure you bring a message to Kayl. Tell him that I hope that he’s wife-less soon, just like Greg!”

Gold looks like he’s really about to lose it now, but Dawson becomes the voice of reason.

Dawson: “He’s not worth it. Thanks for coming out here tonight to help call this match.”

Gold nods. Meanwhile Blake Mason is celebrating his latest victory by simply placing his arms up into the air before leaving the ring. Pugh begins to recover as we go backstage.

The scene opens back in the locker room of Katie Steward to show Katie Steward starting to pace now in her locker room. Gigi just rolls her eyes as Paris Dannon sips a drink. Robin is now sitting down with her leg up as Madison suddenly pops up.

 

Madison: “Oh wait. That wouldn’t work.”

 

Johnson: “Come on. This is your Goddess! This plan needs to be perfect!”

 

Gigi: “Well why don’t you just beat Dillusion. I’m sure that would put fear into them as he’s not exactly a teddy bear.”

 

Katie: “But that involves me having to touch him.”

 

Gigi just rolls her eyes.

 

Robin: “Oh lord. Not that.”

 

Katie: “Hey!”

 

Katie spins and nudges Robin’s leg.

 

Robin: “Ow!”

 

Robin winces before lifting it back up.

 

Katie: “No time for you to take my spotlight with that injured act! TJ!”

 

Johnson: “Wait! Wait! I think I got something.”

 

Katie: “Really? Oh Goddess. Please tell me!”

 

Paris: “Hire a clown?”

 

Katie glares at her.

 

Paris: “Channel what you did against Karnivale?”

 

Katie: “Paris! Not helping!”

 

Paris: “Neither is the alcohol.”

 

Johnson: “No....it’s better. It will let you prove you’re better than Dillusion at his own game AND show Syren and Marina Trent they’re screwed at Body, Heart and Soul.”

 

Katie: “Oh this is great. See Brats! TJ is a real friend! He cares!”

 

Madison: “I was helping.”

 

Katie: “Yes you were....but you two!”

 

Katie glares at Robin and Paris.

 

Katie: “But this will be great...Oh Goddess....This will be great.”

 

Katie smiles as TJ Johnson smiles too and the scene slowly fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Greg Cherry vs. Brittany Lohan

 

The opening guitar riffs are heard leading into "I Will Not Bow" by Breaking Benjamin. The crowd starts to cheer as the opening line is heard.

"I will not bow
I will not break
I will shove the world away
I will not fall
I will not faint
I will take your breath away"

Greg Cherry walks down the aisle and looks out into the audience and stares out into the crowd. He looks towards both sides and then bends down and raises both his arms up in the air a bit half-heartedly. He then starts to make his way down to the ring. A few fans try to clap hands with him, but Greg Cherry just walks over to the ring and hops onto the apron. He then pulls himself up before entering the ring. He then walks around the ring as his music starts to fade out before leaning back on the far ropes, just staring a hole into the curtains.

 

Dawson: “Not the typical Greg Cherry entrance. We normally see him far more cheery, but the last two months have been anything but that.”

 

Sharper: “It’s been an emotional roller coaster ride and one has to think he’s just thinking about getting his hands on Shawn Winters.”

 

Knots: “I don’t know if he wants to do that. I mean, every time he sees Shawn, he gets really angry.”

 

Sharper: “I wonder why?!”

 

The lights dim and “Lights Out” by Breaking Benjamin blares over the speakers, instantly encouraging the fans start to boo when they recognize whose theme this is. There's a brief delay but with the spotlight focused on the large curtains, they are ripped open as Lohan steps out into the light. Her eyes pan around the grandstands closest to her and she snarls at those within them who jeer her. She looks like a woman possessed as she focuses on the ring.

With clenched fists, gritted teeth and glaring eyes, Lohan begins to make her way down the ramp and towards the ring, power walking with suitably powerful strides. As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down a little before Greg Cherry suddenly runs at the ropes and dives over the top rope and nails Lohan with a dive. The crowd roars as Greg rolls over and holds his ribs. Lohan rolls over, holding her face in pain before getting back up.

 

Dawson: “Greg over the top rope! Right down on top of Brittany Lohan!”

 

Knots: “What the hell? Let her get into the ring!”

 

Sharper: “And Greg not wasting time. Obviously unhappy in general and looking to take out some frustrations against Brittany Lohan.”

 

Greg gets up and turns to Lohan. He lifts her up before nailing her with a hard forearm. He then nails her with another. Greg then turns and rolls Lohan into the ring. Lohan rolls over and starts to get up as Greg slides in afterwards. He then walks over to Lohan and stomps her in the back. Lohan rolls over. Greg then stomps her in the face again. Greg then bend over and grabs Lohan and drags her up before spinning her around and throwing her into the corner. Greg then kicks her in the ribs before kicking her again and again before grabbing Lohan. He then turns and goes to whip her across the ring, but Lohan stops at the middle of the ring. Greg then runs at Lohan and nails her with a forearm. Lohan stumbles back and Greg then kicks her in the ribs before whipping her into the ropes. Lohan bounces off the ropes and Greg goes to grab her, but Lohan kicks him in the ribs. Lohan then clubs him in the back. Greg drops to his knees and Lohan then grabs her and turns before throwing him by just picking him up by the tights and then the head before throwing him face first into the corner.

 

Dawson: “This is not going to be pretty.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and Lohan’s now pissed off too. Both of these two are pissed off.”

 

Greg pulls himself up and Lohan just waits and Greg turns around only for Lohan to run forward and splash him in the corner. Greg winces and staggers forward. Lohan then turns and clotheslines him down from behind. She then grabs Greg and pulls him away from the ropes before throwing him down and goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Greg kicks out. He turns and starts to roll over and Lohan grabs Greg and drags him up. She then clubs him in the back before then lifting him up and headbutting him in the back. Greg stumbles forward and Lohan spins him around and then whips him into the ropes. Greg bounces off the ropes and Lohan scoops him up and drops him with a powerslam. She then gets up before running into the ropes. He bounces off the ropes and jumps up and hits an elbow drop. She follows up with a pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Greg kicks out. Greg then rolls over and starts to stir as Lohan just pulls herself up, glaring at Greg.

 

Dawson: “Lohan just taking down Greg. Greg kicks out there, but this is going to be one of those matches that is going to take a lot out of both.”

 

Knots: “Shawn Winters has to be loving this.”

 

Lohan grabs Greg and drags him up before nailing him with a hard right. Greg stumbles back and Lohan then walks over and grabs Greg and chops him in the chest. The crowd woos, and Greg suddenly grabs Lohan and spins her around and into the corner before nailing her with a hard right and then a chop, before another hard right. The crowd cheers and Greg then grabs Lohan and hip tosses her out of the corner. Lohan rolls over and gets back up and Greg then runs over and nails her with a running boot to her chest, knocking her down. The crowd cheers and Greg just looks out at the crowd, almost possessed, before turning and looking at Lohan as she gets up and Greg grabs her and clubs her in the back. Lohan then pushes him back and Greg bounces off the ropes and Lohan drills him with a clothesline. The crowd ohs as Greg rolls over, to his stomach.

 

Sharper: “Oh! What a clothesline.”

 

Knots: “And another hard shot. This is great.”

 

Dawson: “These two are not doing much wrestling, but they are fighting. And both are taking out some frustrations on the other.”

 

Lohan just turns to Greg and grabs him by the head and drags him up before headbutting him in the back of the head. Greg falls back to his knees before Lohan pulls him up again. She then turns and whips him into the corner. Greg hits the corner hard enough to bounce out of it and Lohan lifts him up and onto his shoulders for a Samoan drop. Lohan rolls over and gets up before then looking at Greg and backing up to the corner. Greg rolls over and pulls himself up before turning to Lohan and Lohan runs at him and attempt the For Your Eyes Only, but Greg sides steps her. Lohan turns around and Greg quickly kicks her in the ribs and drops her with the Pit Stop. Greg then rolls over and mounts Lohan before hammering away at her with shot after shot after shot after shot.

 

Sharper: “Greg just hammering away at Lohan now. I don’t know why. He dropped her with the Pit Stop. That’s the usual set up for the Cherry Pit.”

 

Dawson: “But Greg is just driven by anger and frustration. I don’t know if he’s thinking clearly.”

 

Greg then pulls himself up as the referee starts to call for the break. Greg then walks around and Lohan stirs and starts to pull herself up. Greg then turns and nails her with a hard right. Brittany manages to pop up to her feet and Greg follows after her. Greg then turns and goes to whip her into the ropes, but Lohan suddenly reaches up and locks in the Dark Knight of the Soul, but Greg manages to turn and fall into the ropes. The referee calls for the break and Lohan keeps the hold on until the count of four before she rips away and walks over towards the referee, chasing him back. The referee reprimands her and Lohan turns around to Greg before Greg runs to her and ducks a right hand only to spin around and pull her down with a Cherry Pit. The crowd cheers and Greg rolls over and hooks the leg.

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd cheers as Greg rolls off. He then looks to Lohan and just seethes a bit before starting to pull himself up. The referee goes to lift his hand, but Greg pulls away before walking around the ring. He then stops before looking up and taking a few breaths.

 

Sharper: “And Greg Cherry picks up a win against Lohan, ending her brief winning streak.”

 

Dawson: “But look at him. He’s not happy. He’s just won.”

 

Knots: “That’s what happens when you’re a moron.”

 

Sharper: “Stop it!”

 

Greg Cherry then turns as Brittany Lohan rolls out of the ring. He walks over to Jason Phillips and asks for the microphone. Phillips hands it to him and Greg turns back around.

 

Greg: “Shawn!”

 

Knots: “Here we go.”

 

Greg looks around.

 

Greg: “Shawn! I know you’re back there. You heard my challenge. I’m not in the mood for waiting for an answer!”

 

Greg pauses. He just looks at the entrance way as the crowd buzz.

 

Greg: “Shawn!”

 

Greg starts to pace before we then get Shawn Winters on the big screen, seemingly from outside of the arena. He just smiles before looking at it. Charlie Laurio stands next to him as Shawn laughs a bit.

 

Winters: “Wow Greg. Good for you. You finally decided to try and challenge me. You decided to act civilly for fourteen seconds to challenge me to a match.”

 

Winters starts to applaud.

 

Winters: “Good for you.”

 

Winters pauses before then shaking his head.

 

Winters: “But see, you assume that’s what I want. I mean, that would assume that I’d also give you what you want. And that’s just selfish and arrogant. Greg...I’m disappointed in you. But in all honesty, I’m enjoying watching you run around trying to get a hold of me too much. I mean, seriously, the attacking the limo, while Charlie was scared was just stupid and then I stopped you by closing my door. Seriously, next, I’m thinking I’ll just wrap barbed wire around the place just to watch you run into that like an idiot. This is better than ANYTHING on MTV. Jersey Shore...pfft...you’re your own Snooki.....getting punched out and looking like a moron!”

 

Winters smirks.

 

Winters: “So Greg. You want your revenge. Well, you’re going to have to work for that. Because Greg...I’m not going to waste my time beating you at Body, Heart and Soul. You want me. Come get me. Either way, don’t really care. Because Greg....this....this is hilarious.”

 

Just then the door next to Shawn Winters opens and the camera turns to show Sasha Drachewych walking out of the arena, dressed in her coat, with a couple of the officials with her. She just walks over to him as Shawn looks confused. The camera then shows Greg in the ring, just glaring.

 

Sasha: “Ah Shawn...I was hoping I’d catch you before you leave.”

 

Winters: “What’s this about Sasha? Finally going to take me up on that offer to let me get in your pants. Too bad I’m married. It’s off the table.”

 

Sasha: “Cute....no, I’m here because I figured you’d stall and play your little game. And I’m out here to tell you that you’re going to face Greg Cherry at Body, Heart and Soul. After what you did to him, be lucky that’s all I’m doing to you.”

 

Winters looks a bit shocked as Charlie Laurio turns and gets into the face of Sasha.

 

Sasha: “You signed a return contract. I let you back in. Now you have to face the consequence. Enjoy.”

 

Sasha turns around and walks back into the arena as Shawn Winters looks a bit flustered.

 

Winters: “Turn the damn camera off. Turn it off.”

 

Winters places his hand in front of the camera before the scene cuts out and we return to the ring. Greg just smiles as he looks at the big screen. He continues to smile.

 

Sharper: “That face says it all. Greg Cherry has Shawn Winters at Body, Heart and Soul!”

 

Knots: “That’s not fair! He didn’t want the match. Sasha is forcing him!”

 

Sharper: “Forcing him to deal with what he’s doing. Winters wants to taunt Greg. Then he has to deal with it!”

 

The camera focuses on Greg for a few moments before cutting backstage.

Backstage we see Thorn and David Helms, Helms rubbing his jaw a bit before getting up. Kathryn glances to them as we then see Jake Starr open the door and start to walk in.

 

Starr: “You know. You’d swear SCW hates us. Giving us a locker room to share.”

 

Thorn chuckles a bit as Helms just looks up.

 

Helms: “Thanks for earlier.”

 

Starr just shrugs.

 

Thorn: “You going to join us out there now.”

 

Starr: “Is this the CHBK, call out, why did you do what you did even though I never trusted the bastard thing?”

 

Thorn: “Not in so many words?”

 

Starr just shakes his head.

 

Helms: “I thought you said you’d have your back.”

 

Starr just looks up and shakes his head. Thorn then turns back and walks over to Starr.

 

Starr: “Look I do. But I called it. I hate to say it.”

 

Kathryn: “No you don’t.”

 

Starr: “Oh fine. I don’t. But I told you so. I never cared for him. I know you guys trusted and hell, respected him. That’s fine. But it’s your fight. Infamous is pulling you back in and for what. To give THEM a second chance. WE proved we’re better than them. We proved we’re the more dominant. And they’re determining what we’re doing.”

 

Thorn: “Jake....whatever.”

 

Starr: “Thorn....just relax. This with CHBK....he screwed you....and you, David. It sucks. But look, you want to go after him. Go for it. I’ll support you. But I’m not going to get my hands dirty in your fight unless you want me too. And even then, I’m not going to buy it. This isn’t like August where we all were pissed off at them.”

 

David: “So you’re not angry at CHBK playing us for all this time?”

 

David gets up before then almost stopping himself.

 

David: “Look. Wait. We’re going to start pointing fingers again.”

 

Thorn: “Yeah...”

 

David: “I’ll put it this way. I may not be in Brotherhood anymore, but maybe I did it a bit sudden. I don’t want what we had to end. We had a lot of fun. And it’s always good to have people watching you back...”

 

Starr: “In case what happened earlier tonight happens.”

 

David: “Yeah...yeah...yeah..”

 

Starr: “Not everyone plays by the rules David.”

 

David just sighs.

 

Kathryn: “He knows.”

 

David: “Yeah.”

 

David just pauses.

 

Thorn: “Well I don’t want Brotherhood to end either...”

 

Starr: “Same here. But at the same time, you gotta see where I’m coming from. This isn’t my fight. And don’t start telling me I’m a hypocrite. With Lucas, going into Gang Rulz, I didn’t want you guys to get involved in my fight. It was my fight to finish, just like this is yours if you want it.”

 

Thorn: “But Jake...from ours....you’re practically telling us we’re on our own and last Breakdown, you did leave us out to dry. Why didn’t you run down?”

 

Starr just takes a deep breath.

 

David: “Tommy....we gotta go. Jake...we want to get back to where we were. And even if we don’t care for it, we’ll respect your decision. I thank you for having my back earlier. But Jake....are you going to respect our decisions? Whether we go out there and CHBK hands us our ass or we happen to go and have a drink with Syren....or are we going to have you humiliate us just because we don’t agree....”

 

Starr: “Look man....I said no games. I’m not making apologies. But well....you do what you need to do. Both of you. But just know I’m going to do the same, starting with Body, Heart and Soul and giving you the fight of your life.”

 

Helms just pats him on the shoulder.

 

Helms: “Wouldn’t expect anything less.”

 

Thorn: “You ready?”

 

Helms: “Yeah....Kathryn....stay here please.”

 

Kathryn: “Sure thing.”

 

David Helms and Thorn then walk out of the room. Starr then sits down as the sound of the door closing and Kathryn then walks over to Starr. Starr glances over and looks at her.

 

Starr: “What?”

 

Kathryn: “You don’t get it.”

 

Starr: “What don’t I get?”

 

Kathryn: “They just want to know if you’ll have their back and you can’t even say that. So what if you don’t agree. You don’t let them out to dr-“

 

Starr: “Kath....”

 

Kathryn stops.

 

Starr: “I do have their back. But you need to realize....Thorn didn’t have ours a couple of months ago and David needs to realize that not everyone works by the rules. And while I love them as brothers....I don’t want to see them destroy everyone they take with them. Thorn and David both...Infamous played them. They had them play virtuous while Infamous did anything but. If they get into a jam, I’ll be there to bail them out. But I’m not going to step into the quicksand in case I need to pull them from the shore.”

 

Kathryn just shakes her head.

 

Kathryn: “Well...it doesn’t look like that from here.”

 

Starr: “It never does.”

 

Starr then sits back as Kathryn sighs and starts to walk back.

 

Sharper: “Starr seems to be at least civil with Thorn and Helms, but Thorn and Helms are on their way to the ring. They want to confront CHBK! That, when we return!”

 

The scene then fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

The Arena goes dark, and footsteps can be heard reverberating round the vast building as a single word illuminates on the video screen.

“WE“

The footsteps are a little louder now as if someone is walking closer to the arena. A video of Helms’ hitting the “Nightmare On Helms Street” With his patented barbed wire chair is shown before another word is highlighted on the screen.

“WON’T”

The footsteps have risen to an almost unbearable level as a video of Thorn hitting the “Grievers Bane” manoeuvre out of nowhere plays now before another word shows on the screen.

“BACK”

The footsteps reach an crescendo as both Thorn and Helms can be seen hitting a Swanton bomb and a moonsault on two downed opponents respectively as one final word lights up on the screen

“DOWN!”

There is darkness all around as the crowds murmur with the electricity this entrance is causing within the audience and the footsteps finally halt. A few moments elapse before the opening to “We Won’t Back Down” By Escape The Fate echoes around the Arena and finally breaks the silence. A montage of the current members of “The Next Level” starts to play, showing various moves in their arsenal as Thorn and “Dangerous” David Helms walk out from the back as David Helms, SCW World and Adrenaline Championship over his shoulders, strides out to the top of the ramp. They just continue to walk to the ring, looking more serious than we’ve seen.

 

Sharper: “Well something looks a bit normal. Thorn and Helms coming out here together, despite some of that recent tension.”

 

Dawson: “And even Starr, Helms and Thorn being civil. There’s obvious some differences in strategy and some concerns, but maybe, they can survive.”

 

Sharper: “In any case, we know why Thorn and Helms are out here. They want to get some answers. Ironically, both, in various formats, have challenged CHBK to a match.”

 

Knots: “That may not be happening with Helms agreeing to face Jake Starr in a rematch at Body, Heart and Soul.”

 

They make their way to the ring before Thorn hops onto the apron and enters the ring. Helms walks up the steel steps before walking along the apron and stepping in. Thorn walks around the ring before asking for a microphone. Helms just walks around as Thorn is handed one and he turns around and walks over to the middle of the ring.

 

Thorn: “Okay guys, cut the music.”

 

The music slowly fades out before Thorn takes a deep breath and looks around before continuing.

 

Thorn: “As everyone knows, on Breakdown, a certain former Commissioner and former World Champion turned his back on myself, on David, on Gable, on Stacy, on anyone that has sided with us and joined the Infamous. To say we’re angry, is a bit of an understatement. But we trusted him and in many ways, we respected him as someone who stood for the greatness in this business and he flushed it down the toilet to get a piece of ass and I don’t know what else.”

 

Thorn looks around before turning to Helms. Helms just looks out.

 

Thorn: “Now, David and I, we’ve been quite vocal about how angry we are. Both of us have demanded that he grow a set and face us in this ring one on one. And we’re still out here ready for that. But with David now as World Champion and seemingly occupied otherwise with those commitments, it leaves me quite happy to kick your ass Alex! So get your ass out here because we want a damn explanation.”

 

Thorn then brings the microphone down as David stands next to his friend and the two look at the entrance way.

 

Thorn: “Come on!”

 

Thorn clearly showing his impatience as he just glares down the entrance way for a few moments longer. The crowd continues to buzz before darkness engulfs the arena as we hear the eerie sound of something tapping against glass. After a few moments there comes a whisper in the sound of a woman’s voice of one short, iconic word – “NEVERMORE”. With that “Open Your Eyes” by Guano Apes blasts across the PA system as the lights come back up again and the screens fill with text.

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy

 

After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn Taylor makes her way out as the crowd boos. Thorn and David Helms look quite unimpressed as Ravyn Taylor smugly smiles.

 

Sharper: “That is not who they wanted.”

 

Knots: “But I bet that Ravyn Taylor knows where CHBK is. Damn that lucky bastard!”

 

Ravyn brings a microphone to her mouth before looking down at Thorn and David Helms from the safety of the stage.

 

Ravyn: “Sorry Thorn, David, but I’m not going to be foolish enough to continue to that ring as I’m unsure of whether your rage will be contained enough for us to have their exchange civilly. But in any case, allow me to answer the obvious question you’re pondering in your minds....Alex is not here at the moment. In fact, he’s not in Albany. What’s more....he’s not in the country.”

 

Sharper: “What?”

 

Thorn: “Where is Ravyn? We’re not in the mood for games.”

 

Ravyn: “That’s unfortunate, because I am. Well, we are. See, while I won’t answer your question directly, I have come out here to pass a message along. Though again, not directly. Allow me to turn things over to the individuals who find themselves housed in the production truck to pass it along.”

 

Ravyn then smirks before she looks up at the big screen.

 

Sharper: “What’s this now?”

 

The scene opens up with a camera being held down towards the ground, showing what appears to be concrete tile before slowly lifting up to show the legs, chest and then face of the Canadian Heartbreak Kid. He just smiles as boos are heard in the crowd in Albany.

 

CHBK: “Come on Pete. Can’t you steady the camera?”

 

Ebdon (off-camera): “Yeah well, you wanted the dramatic opening by showing your feet. Just give me a moment. If not, it just makes the video far edgier.”

 

CHBK: “Ha ha.”

 

CHBK just waits a moment before then smirking again.

 

CHBK: “Now, as you can tell I’m not anywhere near Albany. I’m not in the United States. See, I’m out here. Now, first, Thorn, David, don’t worry, I’m not at either of your homes. I don’t really feel like going after Charlotte and Kristen and talking about how you’ve been out of it at home. I don’t really feel like trying to deal with Kathryn’s right hook too. Plus, I’m sure you’ve talked to them a bit and the shock of seeing me likely wouldn’t work too well.”

 

CHBK pauses before then lifting his hand in the air as if he thought of something.

 

CHBK: “Oh and hey, congratulations David on being World Champion. I guess that means that you’re going to have to pass on facing little ole me at Body, Heart and Soul. Yeah, I saw your little challenge on Twitter. I laughed a bit. But I guess you’ve got plenty of other commitments so you and I are going to have to hold off on that date, but Thorn, that turns me to little old you.”

 

CHBK smiles as he looks down before glancing off camera.

 

CHBK: “Now, I’ve heard the rumours that you also want to face me. And my bet you two are expecting some sort of explanation. Well, allow me to address that first. Because I’m going to give my explanation, but not here. Not in this video and not to you. If my own son and daughter can’t even get answers, why do you expect yourselves to be any different...Instead, I’m going to do a special...sit down interview, we’ll say, with a very talented interviewer. Someone who knows how to ask the right questions. And that will be on the next Breakdown and I’ll be sure to answer the question that’s on everyone’s mind and that’s why CHBK why?”

 

CHBK just chuckles.

 

CHBK: “Why indeed. I promise you it’ll be a good time.”

 

CHBK then pauses before lifting his arm again.

 

CHBK: “Anyways, sorry, trying to make sure I don’t talk too long. I’m going to see how much bandwidth my hotel gives me before they cut me off. But Thorn, as I was saying, I’ve heard rumblings that you want to face me and I’ve been thinking. For the last two years, I’ve been letting too many people try to take advantage of my legend. See some people are saying that I flushed it down the toilet, but those people are just blind little children trying to hope that if they cry long enough, they’ll wake up and it’ll be a dream. But it’s not. And Thorn, if you want to get in the ring with me and try to get some little bit of revenge, well, I need to see if you’re worth my time. See, when you’ve done what I have, I think it’s safe to conclude that I’m entitled to determine when I need to step in the ring and I should only need to compete against the best. Now Thorn, you are good. But I want to see how good you are. Because we don’t need you to go off on another bender for a month if things don’t work out....and that’s why I’m here.”

 

CHBK just smiles before stopping again.

 

CHBK: “That’s why both Pete and I are here.”

 

CHBK smiles.

 

CHBK: “See Thorn, I’m going to lay down a challenge of my own. Let’s see how much that anger is worth you. Because with David Helms otherwise occupied, you’re going to be my main target...at least for now. And Thorn, you need to EARN your shot against me. And Body, Heart and Soul will be your first opportunity. So if you’re game....let me introduce you to your opponent.”

 

CHBK smiles before stepping over and extending his hand as the camera pans out and reveals none-other than Lucas Knight, as they stand in front of Lucas Knight’s house. The crowd in the arena can be heard booing and roaring at the sight. CHBK and Lucas Knight then shake hands as Lucas Knight takes a deep breath before looking in the camera.

 

Lucas: “Expecting to see someone else?”

 

With that, the tape ends and the scene cuts back to the arena to see Helms looking a bit shocked with Thorn just glaring. Ravyn Taylor meanwhile just smiles as she just turns and walks back through the curtains. The crowd continues to roar, stunned by what they just saw.

 

Knots: “Yes! Yes! Yes! YES! YES!!!!!”

 

Dawson: “I don’t believe it. CHBK was just shaking hands with Lucas Knight on that video.”

 

Sharper: “CHBK and Pete Ebdon have found Lucas Knight and Knight is back and will face Thorn is Thorn wants CHBK?!”

 

Dawson: “And this plot with CHBK continues to thicken. We have to wait two more weeks for ANY answers.”

 

Knots: “He’s setting everything up right now. The first domino was on the last Breakdown, this Breakdown, he sets more up. What’s next? Infamous has new life and it comes in the form of CHBK injecting it with a transfusion and one that sees Lucas Knight returning!”

 

Sharper: “And where has he been? Why did he leave?”

 

Dawson: “Oh man. This is getting more and more unpredictable. What next?”

 

Thorn just glances back at Helms as Helms just looks back to Thorn as the two of them both look less than impressed as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Karnivale vs. Mike Harrison & Billy Mitchell

 

As Nox Arcana’s ‘Ghosts of the Midway’ begins to play, the big screen shows several different types of masks flying around until two crash into one another and shatter, its remains spell out ‘Masquerade’. The lights go deep blue when those words shatter and reunite to form the name ‘Shilo Valiant’. The screen then goes to several shots of Shilo wrestling and doing some fancy handwork with his syringes filled with Necro, and to shots of Masquerade wrestling and trying on masks.

‘Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the circus of the strange, the sideshow of the sinister, and the theater of the bizarre. Enter a realm of dark wonders to indulge in your wickedest dreams, or if you dare, explore the shadows of the most diabolical nightmares. Cast your eyes on the cruel oddities of nature and behold the monstrous creatures from the depths of the abyss. Marvel with awe and dismay at unbelievable death defying acts that teeter on the very prink of doom. Leave the mundane world behind, for those who visit this festival of phantasm are never the same again. Step this way… There is no turning back.’

‘Calliope’ takes over and the lights go all around the audience as the fans look around. The lights finally focus to two of the exits on opposite sides of the area. On one crouches Shilo Valiant with his syringe guns and Masquerade crouches on the other, dangling a single mask by a long string. Both men hop down and make their way to the ring through the crowd, Shilo giving his paying patrons their needed fix and Masquerade walks down to the ring, taking one demented mask off his face after another to the fans. By the time they hop over the rails, Shilo is out of Necro and Masquerade out of masks. Both men slide in the ring. Masquerade crawls over and sits at the turnbuckle while Valiant stands on the middle rope looking up the ramp and finger shooting the audience. They then drop down before walking over to the middle of the ring where Masquerade just smiles before walking across the ring. Shilo just looks at him for a moment before shrugging a bit and walking to the opposite corner.

 

Sharper: “Earlier tonight, we found out some interesting news involving these two. Masquerade has decided to take advantage of his number one contendership spot in the United States Championship division to face his tag partner, Shilo Valiant.”

 

Knots: “Trouble in Karnivale? Yes please!”

 

Dawson: “I don’t know about that. Shilo Valiant was more taken aback about Masquerade negotiating the match, but almost seems to be looking forward to the challenge.”

 

“Lord Have Mercy” Joanne Shaw Taylor is heard around the arena as it falls on complete darkness. Two lime green lasers stream down from the roof and start to aimlessly circle around the entrance area. When the song kicks in fully we hear a loud bang and two bright white fireworks explode on either side of the entrance way. On that cue Mike Harrison appears on the stage area, smiling and looking at the fans for a second. He then begins to casually make his way down to the ring by guide of a single spotlight, pumping up the crowd as he goes. When he gets to the end of the ramp he looks at the ring, and then to either side of him cracks another smile and slides under the bottom rope. He then walks to the centre of the ring, and kneels down. He leans back slightly and thrusts his arms into the air, as he does this four bright white flares fire out of each ring post. As they settle Mike Harrison rises back to his feet. He then looks at Shilo Valiant and Masquerade before turning back to Jason Phillips and asking for the microphone.

 

Sharper: “Mike Harrison and Billy Mitchell, an odd pairing, were schedule to team up. They’ve been at each other’s throats. But Billy Mitchell has been suspended as a result of his actions at the End of the Year Special for tonight. This leaves Mike Harrison without a partner.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but he doesn’t have to worry about his head being taken off.”

 

Dawson: “And to be fair, our owner did offer Harrison the ability to choose a replacement. This coming though after she flat out told Harrison he would not be receiving a crown as per his request at the End of the Year Special.”

 

Knots: “And we may find out.”

 

Sharper: “Or Harrison is going to get a chance to talk more.”

 

Harrison is handed the microphone by Phillips before he turns and glances at him.

 

Harrison: “Okay there tux-boy. You can leave. I’ll take care of this part.”

 

Phillips just looks at Harrison confused before Harrison motions to him to leave the ring. He then turns and steps through before dropping to the floor.

 

Harrison: “Now, see this match was supposed to be some great awesome clash between two teams, both of whom were on the collision course and blah, blah, blah. But then Billy went and drank too much Jack Daniels and now isn’t here. So thus, we’re here, I’m still waiting for my damn crown, and I don’t have a partner. Peachy.”

 

Harrison starts to pace back and forth in his corner before smirking a bit. He then looks forward, looking at his hand.

 

Harrison: “So that left me with the need to replace that raging moron with someone else and well, little did I know that you two freaks have pissed off a lot of people, but one person in particular really impressed me and his ability to wait for this opportunity that has been presented here tonight is just remarkable. And he’s been waiting for you Shilo. He’s been waiting for that shot to get some measure of revenge.”

 

Dawson: “Well who is it?”

 

Shilo just turns and glances to the back before Harrison runs up behind him and nails him with the microphone in the back of the head. Shilo falls forward and through the ropes to the floor. Masquerade then turns and jumps up and kicks Harrison in the chest with a jump spin kick. Harrison falls back as the crowd boos a bit before then “Coming Home” starts to play and fire shoots out of the entrance way. The boos increase before we see Christian Savior run out from the back. Shilo starts to get up and Savior immediately runs at him and tackles him into the side of the ring. The crowd ohs and Shilo falls over as Savior stands over him. In the ring, Harrison gets up and Masquerade quickly nails him with a couple of hard shots to the jaw, knocking him back into the corner.

 

Sharper: “Savior! Christian Savior is coming out here to team with Harrison to get revenge on Shilo!”

 

Knots: “From Apocalypse! Remember, Shilo even told him that he wouldn’t get his chance and that they were even and Savior never thought that! Revenge is a dish best served cold!”

 

The bell sounds as Savior stomps Shilo in the head before the ribs. He nearly rolls under the ring before Savior grabs Shilo and starts to lift him up. Meanwhile in the ring, Masquerade chops Harrison in the chest before then turning and going to whip him out of the corner. Masquerade however holds on and pulls Harrison back in and chest first into the turnbuckles. Masquerade then turns and jumps to the middle rope before diving back and hitting a leg lariat. This comes just after Shilo is thrown into the steel steps by Savior. Masquerade follows up with a pin as Savior continues to go after Shilo.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Harrison kicks out. Masquerade turns and grabs Harrison and drags him back up only for Harrison to bury his fist into the stomach of Masquerade. Masquerade winces and Harrison hits an uppercut and Masquerade stumbles back. Savior grabs Shilo and lifts him up before throwing him chest first into the barricade. Shilo stumbles back and falls over before Savior just smirks and walks over to him, yelling at him.

 

Savior: “Come on Shilo. You don’t like when you’re attacked from behind? Six months! Six months and it still will get me nothing!”

 

Sharper: “Savior jawjacking at Shilo Valiant, trash-talking in his face.”

 

Dawson: “And you can see the rage. He’s just continuously attacking Shilo.”

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, Masquerade is dealing with Harrison. But Harrison is fighting back.”

 

Savior slaps Shilo and Shilo rolls over as Harrison kicks Masquerade in the ribs before whipping him into the ropes. Masquerade bounces off the ropes and Harrison ducks. Masquerade turns and backflips down the back of Harrison. Harrison turns around and Masquerade kicks him in the ribs before turning into the ropes. Masquerade bounces off the ropes and Harrison then powerslams Masquerade over. He follows up with a quick pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Masquerade kicks out. He rolls over as Masquerade stirs. Harrison starts to pull himself up before stomping Masquerade in the head. Masquerade starts to get up and pulls himself up at the ropes. Harrison then chops him as the crowd woos. The camera view changes to show Savior starting to grab at Shilo. Shilo is pulled back by the hair before Savior nails him with a headbutt. Shilo stumbles back and Savior follows after him and Shilo reaches up and nails Savior with a hard right. The crowd cheers. Savior attempts another shot and Shilo nails him with another after blocking Savior’s attempt. In the ring, Harrison takes Masquerade down with a backbreaker. The crowd ohs a bit as Masquerade rolls over in pain and Shilo then kicks Savior in the ribs. He turns and drives him face first into the apron before Harrison glances over, seeing this and runs over and nails Shilo with a baseball slide. The crowd boos as Harrison looks up, smiling. He then pulls himself up and looks around the ring as the boos continue. Meanwhile, at this point, the referee finally takes the opportunity to drop down to the floor and get Savior away from Shilo.

 

Sharper: “The official trying to finally get some semblance of order.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, we’ve had two matches going on. Not that I cared. Karnivale is currently separated and not looking so hot.”

 

Savior moves back, just glaring at Shilo as Shilo starts to pull himself up. Savior hops onto the apron and Shilo continues to stir. Harrison then turns and walks over to Masquerade and grabs him, but Masquerade suddenly nails him with a hard right. Harrison drops down before getting back up and Masquerade then hits an inverted atomic drop before following up with a clothesline. He then turns and runs across the ring and nails Savior off the apron before he can get situated. The crowd cheers and Masquerade then smirks as he looks around and then climbs up the turnbuckle in the Savior/Harrison corner. Shilo walks around the ring and starts to head to his corner as Savior slowly gets up. Harrison then pulls himself up and Masquerade glances back before diving back and hitting a moonsault on Mike Harrison. He rolls through and into a pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Harrison kicks out. He rolls over as Masquerade rolls off. He then gets up and glances at Shilo as he continues to get himself ready in the corner. Harrison starts to crawl towards his corner as Savior gets back up and Masquerade turns and runs over before grabbing Harrison by the tights. He starts to lift him up, before Harrison nails Masquerade with a back elbow. Harrison then dives forward and tags in Savior. The crowd boos as he enters the ring and immediately clotheslines Masquerade down and then dives back over and starts to openly choke him in front of the referee.

 

Dawson: “Savior is just choking Masquerade.”

 

Sharper: “And the vitriol in these attacks. Savior is going after both just viciously.”

 

Knots: “Why not? They’re a team. What one of them does I think condemns the other? I mean, he’s been waiting six months!”

 

The referee calls for the break and starts to count before Savior pulls away at four. He then gets up and grabs Masquerade. He starts to lift him up before kneeing him in the ribs. He follows up by taking him over with a snap suplex. He floats over.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Shilo makes the save. Savior glares up and reaches up. He then runs over to the corner, but Shilo blocks a hard right and nails him with one. Savior spins around, clearly frustrated and goes for another but Masquerade grabs him from behind and rolls him up.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Savior kicks out and Masquerade falls forward and into the corner. Shilo tags himself in and springboards to the top rope before diving forward and taking Savior down with a clothesline. He then rolls through before getting up and running at Harrison and hitting him with a forearm. He flies back before glancing back at Savior. Savior pulls himself up and Shilo then runs over and nails Savior with a running dropkick, knocking Savior back and causing him to roll such that he ends up with his legs on the bottom rope.

 

Dawson: “Oh! What a dropkick!”

 

Sharper: “Shilo is coming in like a house on fire. Down goes Harrison. Down goes Savior!”

 

Shilo then grabs Savior and lifts him up before before hooking him up in a front face lock and lifts him up before bouncing him off the top rope and hits a slingshot suplex. Shilo then turns as Harrison gets into the ring and Harrison runs across and nails Shilo with a hard clothesline. The crowd ohs and Shilo rolls over. Harrison then turns and Masquerade then grabs Harrison by the hair and pulls him back before then just dragging him up and over the top rope and both fall to the floor. Harrison rolls over and Masquerade slowly gets up. Shilo starts to stir as well as Savior rolls away from Shilo gets up in the Savior/Harrison corner. Masquerade then grabs Harrison and kicks him in the ribs before turning and throwing him up and over the announce table, narrowly missing Jonathan Knots. Shilo starts to get up as Savior gets up and looks over and Masquerade just glances up before sliding in. Savior runs at Shilo and Masquerade then tackles Shilo, moving him out of the way of Savior’s spear. The crowd ohs as Savior goes face first into the middle turnbuckle and turns around and Shilo looks up at Masquerade as Masquerade just nods and rolls out of the ring. Shilo then stumbles to his feet as Savior pops back and he grabs Savior before hoisting him up and dropping him with the Morning Star. Harrison starts to get up and crawls to the ring as Shilo goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars and Shilo rolls off. He then looks at Masquerade who just smiles and makes a tipping the hat motion before walking over and picking up the SCW US Championship and handing to his tag partner.

 

Sharper: “Masquerade just saved Shilo from Savior and helped them win.”

 

Dawson: “They’re still tag partners, but Masquerade went above and beyond there, even tackling Shilo out of the way.”

 

Sharper: “A lot of people in the past have accused Masquerade of being the weak link in this match. I don’t consider that to be the truth, and especially the case there.”

 

Knots: “And these two are going to compete for that title Shilo holds at Body, Heart and Soul!”

 

Shilo gets out of the ring and Karnivale start to make their way to the back as Harrison gets into the ring and Savior starts to get up. Harrison looks to Savior as the camera focuses on them and Harrison shoves Savior down as Savior looks up. The crowd roars and Harrison snaps at him.

 

Harrison: “You said you had it! You gave me my first loss you idiot!”

 

Savior just turns away before pulling himself up.

 

Sharper: “Oh boy. This doesn’t look good.”

 

Knots: “Harrison’s right! Savior screwed it up! He was perfect until now.”

 

Savior: “Don’t you know who the hell you’re talking to?”

 

Harrison: “Yeah, some loser who can’t even beat someone up properly. I was better off alone!”

 

Savior: “You better watch it.”

 

Harrison then turns away before kicking Savior in the ribs. Savior staggers back as the crowd roars and Harrison nails Savior with a hard right. He then goes to whip him across the ring, but Savior pulls Harrison in and knees him in the ribs and Harrison stumbles forward before the lights suddenly go off.

 

Dawson: “What now?”

 

The lights remain off for a moment as the crowd can be heard buzzing a bit before they return and we see Damian Angel standing in the ring. He runs forward and clotheslines Harrison down. Savior attempts a clothesline on Angel, but Angel ducks before Savior turns around and Angel kicks him in the ribs before grabbing his head and driving him down with the snap bulldog. He then rolls over and glances down at both men. Harrison starts to get up and Angel just smiles before running forward and nailing him with a Yakuza kick, knocking him up and over the top rope and to the floor. Damian Angel then looks around as an “Angel!” chant begin.

 

Sharper: “Damian Angel strikes again. He’s taken down Savior! He’s taken down Harrison!”

 

Dawson: “The Hellbound Messiah stands tall and for the second time over Mike Harrison!”

 

Angel continues to pose before lifting his arms up into an X over his head. Autumn Daniel is revealed at ringside as he glances over to her before smiling. The crowd continues to chant for Damian before the scene cuts backstage.

The scene opens up in front of the SCW Interview Area to show Stacy Kissinger and Gable Winchester standing with Jessica Winters. The crowd cheers seeing them as Stacy smiles a bit and Jessica turns to them.

 

Jessica: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am here with Stacy Kissinger and Gable Winchester and tonight, they will face off against Christy Matthews and Ravyn Taylor. And both of you have been having quite a few issues. Stacy, you’ve been having some medical problems and then was confronted by CHBK at the End of the Year Special. And Gable, you’ve been obviously caught in the middle of everything now with Infamous. What’s going through both of your minds?”

 

Kissinger: “Well, eitha way, tonight is gonna be a challenge. It’ll be my first match since tha incident and it’s something I’d rather not discuss...but....even CHBK...I don’t wanna discuss him, eitha. The man is a snake in the grass and he has turned on everyone that loved him. But all of that....”

 

Kissinger pauses before Gable jumps in.

 

Gable: “All of that, won’t really matter. We’re going to make Infamous regret everything they’ve done in the last month. From coming in and assaulting Stacy and costing me that cage match to then screwing us over last Breakdown with the matter of that asswipe CHBK. See, right now, we’re the last two people anyone will want to deal with. See, some say that Greg Cherry is angry...some say that Dillusion is driven, but no, see we’ve been waiting and waiting to get our hands on members of Infamous and just give them a taste of what their actions warrant! Because ya see, the end of 2010 should have been glorious for us. But it’s not quite that...and Infamous are in large part to blame for that. So 2011, we’re going to start it off by kicking your ass all over this arena.”

 

The crowd cheers. Kissinger then jumps in.

 

Kissinger: “And trust me when I say...I’m in no mood to play whatever games Ravyn wants to play. She can play them with Helms and Thorn. But Gable and I....we know our target is here in this buildin’ and we are gonna make damn sure we take advantage of this opportunity and seal it with a kiss!”

 

Kissinger smiles a bit before turning to Gable and Gable wraps his arm around her before turning and walking off. Jessica then turns to the camera.

 

Jessica: “Thank you both of you. Gable Winchester and Stacy Kissinger face Christy Matthews and Ravyn Taylor later tonight.”

 

Sharper: “Thank you Jessica. That’s still to come, but when we return, Katie Steward and Dillusion go at it. Don’t go anywhere!”

Dillusion vs. Katie Steward

 

I'm not cocky
I just love myself
Bitch!

As the lights in the arena begin to dim, the whimsical voice of Katie Steward is heard giggling as “Vanity” by Christina Aguilera plays on the speaker system. Bright pink spot lights swirl around the arena as varies images of Katie Steward are captured on the video screen. This beautiful display encourages prompts the crowd to start to boo for their Goddess.

Plush ruby red carpet is rolled down the aisle way just as Katie Steward emerges from behind the curtains. Miss Steward is all decked out wearing her long white coat and a stunning diamond studded tiara rests on her beautiful blonde hair curls. Katie produces her famous smiles for the live audience. Multiple flash bulbs can be seen as the cameras snatch as many and every pose she graces them with.

Katie starts her walk down the ramp to ringside. TJ Johnson exits from behind the curtain and follows his Goddess. Once she reaches ringside, Katie folds her arms over chest and looks back over her shoulder at TJ Johnson waiting for him to do his job. When he sees that “look”, he immediately runs past her and enters into the ring. He signals for the microphone from the ring announcer and when he hesitates, T.J. snatches it from his hand.


Next T.J. excitedly waves everyone out of the ring. All the while Katie was fixing her hair at ringside ignoring what T.J. was doing. She walks over to the steel ring step and awaits her introduction. She looks up spreads her arms out wide and smiles the Famous smile for her glorious introduction as some of the fans have already begun to boo her and show how much they dislike and disrespect for her.

TJ Johnson: The reason why we have all come here tonight...er...again… She is The Queen of Queens, The Goddess of Desire, The SCW’s own Crown Jewel. Get your cameras and video recorders ready for… KATIE STEWARD….

Katie gracefully walks up the steel ring steps and onto the apron. She bends down enters the rings between the middle ropes that T.J. holds down for her. She walks over to the opposite corner and climbs onto the ropes. She takes off her lovely coat revealing her beautiful wrestling attire. Many in the crowd start to take snap shots of their Goddess. Katie jumps down and walks to the other corner to pose and climbs up on the middle ropes just as the lighting returns to normal and the music dies. Katie does one last pose for the fans then she jumps down and walks towards T.J.

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who's the flyest of them all
It's me, bow down get on your knees
Where's my queens?
Who reigns supreme?
Let me hear you scream
Whooo!

TJ Johnson smiles down at Katie, before bowing slightly before staying at ringside instead of typically going to the announce table.

 

Sharper: “Well we’ve heard from Katie throughout the night and her growing concern about the alleged disrespect she’s getting.”

 

Knots: “Hey. I don’t care. She can destroy Dillusion for all I care. I’m just happy that TJ isn’t joining us.”

 

Sharper: “That’s true, but regardless, earlier tonight, Katie Steward came out hoping to lead the women of SCW in aiding her in her goal of getting the World Championship. That didn’t quite happen as both Syren and Marina Trent killed that pipe dream.”

 

The screen suddenly goes to static and then there is a blast of pyro that falls from seemingly the sky onto the entrance way with a giant crashing noise. “Crazy Train” by My Bloody Valentine begins to pump through the arena speakers. The camera moves into the entrance way where there is a large mass of fire. The fire grows several feet high on the big screen it shows a figure kneeling in the center of the flames. The figure slowly rises and looks directly at the camera as it slowly zooms in. This reveals Dillusion eyeing the camera with a sadistic look. He steps forward through the flames licking his lips.

He then makes his way to the ring just looking at the ring. He then walks down to the ring before walking around it. He then continues to walk around as the crowd cheers before turning and hopping on the apron and looking at Katie. He then smirks before stepping through the ropes and looking at her.

 

Dawson: “A bit of an interesting situation as this obviously has some other undercurrents, but the Rejected has befriended Dillusion and earlier tonight, we saw Anthony Wallace talking to Dillusion about this match.”

 

Sharper: “The Rejected represent different people that have been, well, rejected, and Katie has definitely not really come to know that feeling.”

 

Dillusion then starts to walk towards Katie before Katie runs at him and kicks him in the chest. Katie backs up and hits another spin kick to the chest and Dillusion staggers back. Katie hits a couple more kicks before grabbing Dillusion and firing him into the ropes. She wipes her hands on her attire before attempting a clothesline, on Dillusion. Dillusion however ducks and stops behind her. Katie turns around and Dillusion grabs both of her arms in a double arm trap and headbutts her in the face and then again and again. Dillusion then smiles before lifting her up and over with an overhead arm trap suplex. Katie rolls over as TJ runs around concerned. Katie then turns to the ropes and reaches out and TJ Johnson drops down and looks under the ring before pulling out a steel chair and turning and handing it to Katie. Dillusion just smirks as Katie then pulls it into the ring and then goes to lift it up, only for the referee to pull it away from her. Katie spins around, snapping at the official.

 

Dawson: “What in the world are they doing? This is not no disqualification!”

 

Knots: “Well you do have TJ there. So really even Katie is working with a handicap!”

 

Katie continues to argue with the referee before the ref places the chair outside. Katie meanwhile is grabbed by Dillusion in a waistlock and German suplexed over. Katie rolls over, holding her head as the crowd cheers. Katie starts to stir and Dillusion then walks over and smiles before grabbing her by the hair. TJ runs around the ring as Dillusion jerks Katie up to the feet only for Katie to let out a scream. The referee tells Dillusion to let go and Dillusion then spins Katie around before kneeing her in the ribs. Dillusion then grabs her and whips her into the corner. Katie hits hard and Dillusion runs after her and Katie dives out of the way as Dillusion drives his knee into the top turnbuckle. He falls back and limps a bit before Katie jumps up and dropkicks him down.

 

Sharper: “And Dillusion’s misstep costs him!”

 

Dawson: “Katie Steward hits that dropkick and has a chance to get back into control.”

 

Katie then turns and stomps Dillusion in the face and then again and again. Dillusion rolls over and to the ropes. Katie starts to distract the referee, allowing TJ Johnson to reach over and choke Dillusion a bit. Dillusion reaches out and goes to grab TJ, but TJ rips away as Dillusion then grabs at the ropes. He starts to pull himself up and Katie then walks over and kicks Dillusion in the ribs. Dillusion pops up and falls to the ropes. Dillusion turns to look at Katie and Katie places her boot against the chest and throat of Dillusion and pushes down. The crowd boos as Katie keeps pushing down and smiles. She then backs up before grabbing Dillusion and dragging him up and then DDTing him down. Katie rolls over before going for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Dillusion kicks out and Katie looks up before turning and snapping at TJ. She makes a hand signal and TJ turns and looks under the ring as Katie gets up and walks over to Dillusion and stomps him again. TJ then pulls out a ladder as the crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Again, TJ Johnson going under the ring, but this time getting a ladder.”

 

Knots: “Seriously, do they not know the rules?”

 

Dawson: “Or are they hoping Dillusion does something stupid?”

 

Sharper: “Or are they hoping now to send a message to Marina Trent and Syren?!”

 

Katie grabs Dillusion as TJ Johnson starts to set up on the ladder on the floor. The ladder, towering high, from the floor, sits over the top ropes in terms of maximum height. Katie then goes to suplex Dillusion down, but Dillusion blocks it and nails Katie in the ribs before again and again and then lifts her up and places her stomach first on the top rope. She remains on them and Dillusion then smiles before running to the corner, jumping to the middle rope and then diving back and hitting a leg drop to the back of Katie’s head. Katie spins through and lands in the ring. Dillusion then rolls over and grabs Katie before dragging her up and then gutwrenches her up and over with a suplex and then eyes the ladder. TJ Johnson just hops onto the apron as Dillusion turns and starts to go over to him. The referee also comes to TJ.

 

Dawson: “This is getting out of control. Dillusion is now going for TJ. There’s a ladder at ringside.”

 

Sharper: “The official needs to get TJ out of here. He’s already been insanely active out here!”

 

Dillusion just grabs TJ as the referee then goes to both and Katie Steward then suddenly grabs Dillusion from behind and hoists him up before throwing him back with a snap back suplex. Katie Steward then turns and snaps at the referee before crawling over to the apron. She then turns and grabs onto the ladder. TJ stumbles over and holds onto the apron before Katie Steward starts to climb up the ladder from the apron and starts to pull herself up and onto the top of it as the crowd cheers. The referee starts to count at Katie, demanding she get off the ladder.

 

Sharper: “What the hell is she doing?”

 

Knots: “Honestly, I’m just going to watch and laugh.”

 

Katie ignores the referee and continues to climb up before getting near the top before the crowd roars and TJ Johnson yells at Katie. Katie snaps back at TJ, thinking TJ’s instead distracting him before we see Bastion Scythe run over and push the ladder down back. Katie lets go and falls back into TJ Johnson as both fall to the floor. The referee calls for the bell and the crowd cheers Bastion before Bastion slides into the ring and Dillusion starts to get up only for Bastion to kick him. Dillusion rolls over as the crowd boos and Bastion dives on top of him and nails him with several hard rights in the back of the head. He then turns and Alex Desoubrais Jr. runs out from the back with a steel chair as Rachel Foxx runs after him with the SCW Underground Championship over her shoulder. Bastion grabs the ropes and Alex Jr. slides into the ring and Bastion jumps up, but Alex Jr. runs over and nails him in the back with the chair and Bastion falls back and to the mat before rolling to the floor out of instinct.

 

Knots: “This is breaking down!”

 

Dawson: “Bastion Scythe coming out here. Is this what he’s now focusing on?!”

 

Sharper: “And here comes Alex Desoubrais Jr. and Rachel Foxx and Alex Jr. just took out Bastion.”

 

Dawson: “And now Rachel Foxx is looking at Dillusion. What the hell is she thinking? Haven’t they tortured him enough?”

 

Dillusion starts to stir and Alex Desoubrais Jr. hands Rachel Foxx the chair before she smirks and holds it up and drives the end into the back of Dillusion. Dillusion rolls over and Rachel Foxx then unfolds the chair before sliding it over Dillusion’s head. The crowd starts to roar as Rachel then turns and climbs up to the middle rope and we then see Hallucigen running down from the back. He jogs down and slides in as the crowd cheers and Hallucigen runs over to Alex Jr. and clubs him in the back. Rachel glances back before jumping over the top rope and onto the apron before stepping back. Alex Desoubrais Jr. starts to get up and Hallucigen turns to him, but Alex Jr. pulls away and rolls down to the floor. Dillusion then slides the chair off his head before starting to stir. Hallucigen meanwhile looks around as Bastion starts to get up too.

 

Sharper: “And Hallucigen makes the save. The SCW Underground Champion, the actual champion, makes the safe!”

 

Knots: “Big deal.”

 

Dawson: “But where’s Rejected?”

 

Bastion gets up and starts to hop back into the ring and Hallucigen just turns to him before we hear the voice of the SCW Owner.

 

Sasha: “Stop it! Stop it! STOP IT!”

 

Sasha Drachewych walks out from the back and looks down at the individuals all down at the ring.

 

Sasha: “I’m getting sick of this ongoing saga with the Underground Championship. I let Speed have his fun, but now it’s time for me to end this and resolve this entire situation. We have two people claiming to be Underground Champion. One doing no defending of that title. The other having just won it on the last Breakdown.”

 

Just as Sasha says that, Hallucigen is suddenly nailed from behind with the steel chair by Dillusion. Dillusion then looks down at Hallucigen and smiles as the crowd ohs.

 

Sasha: “Dillusion!”

 

Dillusion looks up to Sasha with a smile as Hallucigen writhes in pain.

 

Sharper: “Hallucigen kisses the ground Dillusion walks on. Why the hell did he do that?”

 

Knots: “He’s Underground Champion and Dillusion’s not!”

 

Sasha: “This is what I mean. We have you, Dillusion, going around attacking people. Rachel Foxx preening as the Underground Champion when she’s not. Hallucigen as the actual champion. Bastion Scythe coming out here to stir up nothing but trouble, and finally, The Real Speed is now injured at home with a broken wrist, yet he’s started all of this.”

 

Sasha just pauses and rubs her face.

 

Sasha: “So here is what we are going to do. Given all of the insanity you guys have put yourselves through, all of this blood loss and violence, we’re going solve it once and for all. Dillusion, Rachel, Hallucigen, Bastion....and if Speed can make it, he can be let in too. Because for the first time ever in SCW history, at Body, Heart and Soul, we are going to see the five of you battle for the ACTUAL SCW Underground Championship....and an empty arena match. We’re going to open the doors up early and let you lunatics in and whoever gets the first fall will win and be announced as the OFFICIAL Underground Championship. And in the process, I don’t have to worry about if you hit a fan or burn half of the entrance way down....because only you five will be in that building. Have a nice day.”

 

“Rescue Me” starts to play before Sasha Drachewych turns around and storms off to the back.

 

Sharper: “The first ever empty arena match in SCW History and it’s for the Underground Championship.”

 

Knots: “And these guys have no regard for their own safety....we may have to reschedule Body, Heart and Soul. These guys may tear that building apart!”

 

Dillusion just smiles before turning and dropping to his knees and looking at Rachel Foxx as Bastion Scythe can be seen flashing a small smile too. The scene slowly fades to black as Dillusion and Rachel continue to lock eyes.

COMMERCIAL:

Gable Winchester & Stacy Kissinger vs. Christy Matthews & Ravyn Taylor

 

Sharper: “Well folks, its main event time. Going in to this one I think we all thought that it would be going down only one way, but without CHBK or Pete Ebdon in Albany tonight the Infamous don’t have their normal numbers advantage, and that means that for once Gable Winchester and Stacy Kissinger could be fighting on an almost level playing field.”

Dawson: “You say that but Brittany Lohan is here tonight, we saw her in action earlier and you can bet she’ll want to stick her nose in to this one. The hatred between Gable and Stacy and the Infamous all started because of Brittany Lohan and it got far, far worse a few weeks ago when Ravyn and Christy interfered in Gable’s match with Brittany.”

Knots: “Interfered? They didn’t interfere; they simply made sure that Stacy would be at ringside to cheer on her boyfriend, that’s all. Besides how do you interfere in a steel cage match? There’s no rules in that environment, so technically they did nothing wrong.”

Dawson: “Have you been talking to Ravyn before the show tonight? That sounds amazingly like an excuse straight from her playbook! Whether what they did was technically against the rules or not it was definitely not done in the spirit of good and honest competition! Tonight Gable Winchester and Stacy Kissinger get the chance to put two of them in their places and better than that get to show everybody that even though some in the locker room have decided not to fight the good fight any longer, they’re still willing to.”

The camera pans to the ring where Jason Phillips stands in the middle of the ring, microphone in hand. The referee climbs in to the ring as the camera tightens up on Phillips as he raises up the microphone.

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen it is now time for your featured contest of the evening. The following match is tag team action scheduled for one fall.”

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 sing along with the lyrics as the camera pans through them all and back to the cheap seats in the back of the arena where we see Christy Matthews standing on the guard rail with her arms outstretched in an eerily familiar mock-crucifix pose. Her fists are taped and she looks more than ready for the task ahead. She’s wearing a red jacket the hood pulled up over her head in a style similar to the classic fairytale. As she jumps down from the guard rail the screens around the arena begin to display familiar wording once more...

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

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

She begins to push her way down to ringside accompanied by Autumn Valentine and Christopher Richter, her two hundred and sixty five pound enforcer, who easily clears out the fans in the way as they boo and jeer. Christy makes her way down to the barricade, leaping over and begins climbing the outside of the turnbuckles, standing on the middle rope, pulling down the hood of her jacket and striking the mock-crucifix pose once more. As the second chorus of "King of the World" hits Christy sings along with the lyrics, continuing to strike the crucifix pose before finally leaping over the top rope and spinning around in the ring, throwing her ring jacket to the outside and collapsing to a seated position in the corner of the ring as the fans boo loudly once more.

Phillips: “Introducing first, from Overland Park, Kansas by way of Las Vegas, Nevada, weighing one hundred and forty pounds, being accompanied by her entourage, this is CHRISTY MATTHEWS!”

The fans boo loudly and Christy just sits there uncaringly as darkness engulfs the arena again and we hear the eerie sound of something tapping against glass. After a few moments there comes a whisper in the sound of a woman’s voice of one short, iconic word – “NEVERMORE”. With that “Open Your Eyes” by Guano Apes blasts across the PA system as the lights come back up again and the screens fill with text.

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy

After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn Taylor makes her way out on to the stage dressed in a fur cloak and hood, standing there for a moment raising her arms in to the air and seemingly absorbing the atmosphere with a satisfied grin on her face. She looks back over her shoulder as the curtain parts again and Marcus King, dressed in a leather trench coat and sunglasses, walks out behind her accompanied by Syren. Syren leans over and kisses Ravyn on the cheek playfully. As the chorus of the song kicks in Ravyn walks down to the ring and begins to walk calmly up the steps while King leaps on to the apron and sits on the middle rope to allow Ravyn easier access to the ring. Once in the ring Ravyn climbs the turnbuckles, raising her arms as though in celebration of herself before jumping back down to the ring and leaning in the corner. She throws the cloak to King on the outside of the ring before jumping down and crouching next to Christy, who’s still sitting there seemingly enjoying herself and looking up at the stage.

Phillips: “Her tag team partner, from Hell, Michigan by way of Malibu, California, weighing one hundred fifteen pounds and being accompanied by Marcus King and SYREN, she is one half of the 2010 Tag Team of the Year, this is RAVYN TAYLOR!”

The fans boo loudly again as “Open Your Eyes” continues playing loudly around the arena. We pan back to ringside where we see Christopher Richter standing just inches from the announce table and both Adam Sharper and Jim Dawson just looking at him somewhat uncomfortably.

Dawson: “So, let me get this straight. They’ve got Marcus King and Christopher Richter out here, along with Autumn Valentine and Syren. And here we thought without CHBK and Pete Ebdon we’d actually get something close to a fair fight!”

Knots: “I don’t know what you mean; they’re obviously only out here for moral support. Besides, what the hell are you complaining about? We get to see Syren at ringside tonight! I seriously worry about you two sometimes, I know you both say you’re married and interested in women but when somebody like that is at ringside all you’re thinking about is the big muscular guy!”

Back in the ring and the referee is patting down Christy Matthews while Ravyn stands on the apron, refusing to even let him come near her. Syren jumps up on the apron and pats her down instead, showing the referee what she’s doing and insisting that should be good enough.

Phillips: "And now introducing their opponents. At a combined weight of three hundred and forty three pounds the team of STACY KISSINGER and GABLE WINCHESTER!"

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

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

The video screen shows the words “Who is that man?”…a wall of blue comes up next after the words dissolve and comes up with four options one below the other, reading 1) Santa, 2) Darth Vader, 3) Bulbasaur, 4) Gable Winchester. A spotlight shines throughout the arena as a ticking clock shows on the screen next to the options before a flashing light starts glowing on the clear answer, and the crowds start to chant as the clock reaches zero and then explodes, followed by a barrage of pyros as Gable Winchester appears on the top of the ramp with Stacy Kissinger at his side. There’s nothing else showy from the tag team of Winchester and Kissinger however, they both look at one another confidently before charging down to ringside and the moment they hit the ring both Ravyn and Christy bail to the outside. The referee orders them both back in to the ring and Gable and Stacy don’t wait around, going straight out after them to massive cheers from the crowd. Gable and Christy lock up on the outside, exchanging blows with one another as Stacy chases Ravyn around ringside. Syren just steps back, letting Stacy pass her rather than blocking her off. Ravyn rolls in to the ring, Stacy goes in after her and the moment they’re both in the ring the referee calls for the bell. Ravyn immediately heads to the other side to escape again but Stacy grabs her hair, stopping her from leaving the ring and slowly dragging her back to the middle of the ring as the fans cheer crazily.

Dawson: “Good god they’re not wasting ANY time, Stacy and Gable out here looking absolutely fired up for this one and Ravyn Taylor looks like she’s been caught completely off guard. This is the first time in SCW that Ravyn and Christy are teaming up, I guess Ravyn isn’t used to teaming with somebody other than Syren.”

Knots: “What a travesty this is, did the referee even check those two for foreign objects? They could be carrying anything to ringside and nobody even bothered to check. That’s bias if I ever saw it!”

Sharper: “I guess the referee didn’t have time to do anything considering the way this one started! I guess Ravyn and Stacy are starting this one off as well, and that could be bad news for Ravyn Taylor. Stacy’s got medical clearance after her miscarriage and is looking to fight her way straight back to the top.”

Ravyn struggles to get out of Stacy’s grip but Stacy isn’t about to let her go. She hammers Ravyn with right hands to the delight of the fans before whipping her against the ropes and catching her with a snap scoop powerslam to the mat as the fans cheer. Stacy goes to hook the leg but Ravyn forces her shoulder off the mat and the referee can’t make the count. On the outside Gable and Christy are both still fighting and Gable slams Christy in to the guard rail. He goes to follow up and Richter gets in between him and Christy. The referee sees this out of the corner of his eyes and quickly darts over to the side of the ring, warning Richter about getting involved. Christy struggles back to her feet and makes her to the corner as Gable and Richter continue to lock eyes with Gable slowly taking the referee’s advice and backing off. Stacy meanwhile is still in control in the ring, pulling Ravyn back to her feet with a side headlock. Ravyn begins to fight out of it, hammering away on the ribs before pushing Stacy to the ropes but Stacy comes back with a clothesline that once again knocks down the former tag team champion. Ravyn quickly gets back to her feet, trying not to let Stacy catch her on the mat but Stacy is on her again with a kick to the midsection. She picks Ravyn up, dropping her with an atomic drop before forcing her back in to the corner Gable is now standing in. Stacy makes the tag out to Gable and Ravyn quickly darts out of the corner and dives across, tagging in Christy before rolling to the outside. Syren immediately rushes over to her, making sure she’s ok as Christy slowly gets in to the ring.

Sharper: “Stacy Kissinger in complete control of this match in the early going and Ravyn Taylor did NOT want to be in the ring with Gable Winchester. If an emotional and angered Stacy Kissinger wasn’t enough after everything she’s been through lately then considering Gable’s reaction to everything that went down with CHBK a few weeks ago I think the very last thing Ravyn wanted was to be caught with him.”

Knots: “Can you blame her? It’s well established Ravyn Taylor isn’t a technical wizard in the ring, she’s about as smart as they come and she’s getting better every single time she steps in there considering the training she’s getting but being caught two on one against two former United States Champions? I don’t blame her for bailing. Goddamn though, I wish Syren would come rub my shoulders and give me support. Commentating with you two idiots can be stressful.”

Dawson: “Thanks for that Jonathan, I’ll make sure to remove you from my Christmas card list next year. Christy Matthews in the ring now and this one could be far more even. Christy Matthews may be giving up some size here but she’s faced off against the best so far in SCW and not looked out of place, but then so has Gable Winchester.”

Christy steps in somewhat hesitantly, walking slowly toward Gable who stands there waiting for her. He points out at Ravyn and says something and Christy just laughs and shrugs her shoulders. The camera gets a little closer and we can hear Gable telling her that his issues are with Ravyn Taylor considering everything that happened. He asks Christy what she’s doing and Christy just laughs before telling him she’s doing what she has to. They lock up in the middle of the ring with Gable getting the upper hand on strength alone but Christy is able to twist him around in to a side headlock, smiling at Stacy as she does so. Gable counters it though, twisting out and grabbing her in a waistlock, popping his hips and flipping Christy over but miraculously she lands on her feet. The crowd let out an “ooh” that quickly turns to boos when Gable turns around and she nails him with a kick to the midsection before taking his head off with a kick to the head. She pulls him back up, forcing him in to a neutral corner before slapping him hard across the chest. The fans boo and Christy doesn’t seem to care in the slightest, pointing over at Stacy as she attempts to walk down the apron toward the corner for the referee to stop her. With the referee’s back turned, Christy slaps Gable hard across the chest again before throwing him in to her corner. Ravyn grabs him and chokes him out on the ropes and Stacy’s fury on the apron gets even worse as she tries to push past the referee to make the save.

Dawson: “Oh c’mon referee, turn around already! Ravyn Taylor choking Gable Winchester in their corner, Christy Matthews gloating toward Stacy Kissinger and playing on her emotional state right now and the two Infamous members have completely turned this one around.”

Knots: “What, is something bad happening? I wasn’t paying attention, I was just checking out Syren at ringside. Look at her, so sweet and innocent out here. I don’t know why so many people think she’s in on this whole conspiracy thing, she’s just caught in the middle.”

Sharper: “Well that’s her story anyway and she’s sticking to it, but the story in the ring is Ravyn finally releasing Gable Winchester after choking the life out of him and now Christy can do pretty much whatever she wants as Gable is prone in the corner.”

Gable collapses to a seated position in the corner, Ravyn jumps down from the apron and plays innocent at ringside and Stacy finally leaves the ring allowing the referee to turn around and see absolutely nothing amiss. The fans boo the Infamous members and while Ravyn seems to revel in it at ringside Christy once again ignores it, driving the bottom of her boot over Gable’s face before running the ropes and kicking him in the side of the head. She pulls him out of the corner and grabs the arm, dropping him with an arm-trap neckbreaker before dropping down in to a lateral press for the pin...

Stacy comes in to the ring and kicks Christy in the head to break up the three before charging across the ring and going after Ravyn at ringside. Ravyn quickly darts away and around the ring and the referee rushes to the outside to get Stacy to calm down. Christy recovers in the ring, pulling Gable back up and applying an inverted facelock before spinning him out in another neckbreaker. She goes for another cover but the referee is distracted by Stacy on the outside. Ravyn quickly rolls in to the ring and the two women throw Gable in to their corner, kicking him repeatedly until he’s beaten down again before Ravyn slaps her hands together loudly and Christy just laughs and steps on to the apron. Stacy finally goes back toward her corner and the referee gets back in to the ring, asking Ravyn if she made the tag and she claims she did. She pulls Gable out of the corner and drops him with a neckbreaker of her own before going for another pin.

Sharper: “And Gable Winchester kicks out a second time! This is tag team cheating 101 from the Infamous right here, they keep playing to Stacy Kissinger, getting her fired up and the moment that she tries to get involved in the match that allows them to do whatever they want behind the referee’s back.”

Knots: “It’s effective though, isn’t it? This match started off with Gable and Stacy looking to rip their heads off and now look, we’re several minutes in and it’s all Infamous. Gable looks beaten down and Stacy Kissinger’s anger keeps getting in the way of their tag team success.”

Dawson: “Stacy Kissinger looks like she’s about to explode on the apron, Gable needs to make a tag and when he does I wouldn’t want to be either one of the two Infamous members. Stacy having to watch them beating the hell out of her fiancé while she’s helplessly standing there, I don’t blame her for wanting in to the ring.”

Ravyn goes to tag out to Christy again but Gable begins crawling over to his corner and she quickly rushes back across the ring and stomps on him, dragging him back to the centre of the ring again. She holds on to one foot of Gable, struggling to pull him across the ring and just as she gets close enough to tag Christy then Gable suddenly comes to life, kicking her off in to Christy. The two bump in to one another and Christy gets knocked off the apron. The crowd cheer and Gable struggles back to his feet, diving across the ring to tag in Stacy who comes in absolutely fired up. She levels Ravyn with a clothesline before rushing across and spearing a recovering Christy off the apron to the delight of the fans. She grabs Ravyn and whips her to the ropes, dropping her with a drop toe hold before running the ropes and dropping the leg across the back of Ravyn’s head. Christy begins to get back on to the apron again and Stacy rushes across, baseball sliding this time and kicking Christy back in to the barricade. Syren and Autumn Valentine at ringside rush to check on her as Stacy grabs Ravyn, picking her up and slamming her down hard before ducking to the apron and climbing the turnbuckles, waiting for her to get back to her feet. As soon as Ravyn is back up Stacy leaps off the top rope, nailing a diving cross body from the top rope.

Dawson: “And these fans have come alive again as Stacy Kissinger goes on the offense! Stacy coming in and taking out both Christy and Ravyn single-handedly and now with Ravyn down she’s got to be thinking about something big to leave her mark on this one.”

Sharper: “Stacy’s got to get herself under control though, she’s fired up with the fans behind her but going on the all out offence could cost her dearly in the end. She misses something big, she makes one big mistake and she could cost her team the match.”

Stacy gets back to her feet in the ring as Ravyn is down and checks on Gable on the apron. Ravyn begins to get back to her feet and Stacy grabs her, whipping her to the ropes before catching her with an arm drag down to the mat. She tags in Gable now that he’s had time to regain his composure and Gable goes to the top. Stacy holds Ravyn prone for Gable to hit but King gets his foot, stopping him leaping off the ropes. The referee warns King to get off the apron but the distraction is enough for Ravyn to quickly break free and makes the tag. Christy comes in but Stacy catches her with a spin kick to the gut, ducking as Gable comes off the ropes and nails her with a dropklck. Christy goes down hard and Gable quickly dives in to the cover.

Knots: “Ravyn Taylor makes the save!”

Dawson: “And Stacy Kissinger immediately grabs her and throws her to the outside! This one has completely broken down, Stacy going to the outside after Ravyn again as Gable pulls Christy up in the ring...”

Winchester keeps up the momentum on the inside, pulling Christy up and whipping her to the ropes before catching her with a massive dropkick. He leaps up, running the ropes before dropping an elbow on her and then plays to the crowd, leaping up and dropping both legs across Christy’s chest, driving the wind out of her. She rolls on to her front to stop from being pinned but Gable isn’t interested in the pin just yet. He pulls her up, double-underhooking both of the arms and looking like he’s going for his piledriver move but Christy blocks it. Gable hammers her with a knee instead, releasing one of the arms and lifting her up, dropping her with a modified backbreaker instead. While the referee gets distracted with Stacy and Ravyn brawling on the outside Marcus King makes his way in to the ring, charging across the ring and going after Gable but Gable sidesteps him, throwing him out over the top rope to massive cheers from the fans. Autumn shouts at King on the outside and accuses him of being useless as both the referee and Syren try and stop Stacy from going after Ravyn. In the ring and Gable waits for Christy to get back up before nailing her with a massive superkick!

Dawson: “Whoa, SUPERKICK from Gable Winchester!! It’s not the first time we’ve seen Gable Winchester nail a superkick but that one seemed to have a little more venom on it, you think that was a message aimed squarely at CHBK?”

Sharper: “It wouldn’t surprise me! He absolutely drilled Christy Matthews with that kick and he’s got the pin but the referee still distracted with what’s going on with Ravyn and Stacy on the outside and now... what the hell is this? CHRISTOPHER RICHTER IN THE RING!”

Gable looks around, wondering why the referee isn’t counting before looking to the outside at Stacy and Ravyn. He yells at the referee to pay attention to the ring and turns only to have his head taken off by a massive lariat from Richter. Richter rolls out the ring the outside side as the fans boo and now both Christy and Gable are lying helplessly in the ring. Ravyn finally escapes from Stacy on the outside enough to get back in to the ring but Stacy quickly follows. Ravyn turns and Stacy drills her in the middle of the ring with a spear, hooking the leg but the referee reminds her that she’s not legal. Christy gets back to her feet slowly and Stacy nails her from behind, picking her up for a back drop but Christy floats through and lands on her feet, falling over backwards but away from Stacy. Stacy goes to follow up but again the referee cuts her off, forcing her back out on to the apron. Gable gets to his feet and Christy quickly runs the ropes, leaping off them with a springboard and nailing Gable between the eyes with a perfect Roundhouse Kick. Gable staggers backwards and falls out of the ring but not before Stacy can make the blind tag.

Knots: “WHAT A SHOT!! WHAT A ROUNDHOUSE KICK!! Gable Winchester probably doesn’t know what YEAR it is right now!”

Dawson: “And this one has absolutely broken down yet again, but I think Stacy made a tag to Gable before he fell out of the ring, and I think that makes Christy Matthews and Stacy Kissinger the legal women in this match.”

Sharper: “I don’t blame you for being confused, we’ve seen brawls on the outside, outside interference, bodies flying everywhere and right now Gable Winchester and Ravyn Taylor are both down and Christy Matthews back to her feet... and Stacy kicks her head off!”

Stacy charges in to the ring and nails Christy with a running Yakuza kick that turns Christy inside out. She collapses in the middle of the ring and Stacy gets even more fired up. She grabs Christy and pulls her in to position, climbing to the rope before leaping off and nailing a Corkscrew Moonsault on the prone Infamous representative. She hooks the legs as the fans cheer wildly.

Dawson: “CORKSCREW MOONSAULT!! COVER!! THIS ONE IS DONE!!”

Knots: “YES!! RAVYN TAYLOR PULLS THE REFEREE OUT OF THE RING!! Ravyn pulled the referee out of the ring at the very last possible second and Stacy CANNOT believe it!”

The referee yells at Ravyn on the outside and Stacy comes out after her yet again. Ravyn quickly runs around the ring and this time as Stacy gives chase Syren DOES stand in the way. Stacy pushes her out of the way, asking what she’s doing before going in the ring after Ravyn who catches her with a kick to the side of the head as she’s getting back in to the ring. Ravyn falls over from the exertion but Stacy lays there holding her head in pain as Ravyn gets back to her feet. The referee says something to her as Christy struggles back to her feet and Ravyn climbs to the apron, tagging Christy on the back and making herself the legal competitor before getting back in to the ring. She drags Stacy to the middle of the ring and grabs both her arms, locking in a Japanese Strange-Hold in the middle of the ring. Stacy does her best to fight it though as Ravyn can’t get it fully applied. She struggles back to her feet and Ravyn leaps up, still holding on to the arms and nailing a Double-Knee Backbreaker. Stacy goes down in the middle of the ring and Ravyn holds her leg, having hurt herself in the process...

Knots: “Modified Black Plume by Ravyn Taylor and I think she hurt herself off of that one. At least it looks like she’s finally taken the fight out of Stacy Kissinger.”

Dawson: “I wouldn’t be so sure. Stacy already struggling to recover and Ravyn quickly in with the sleeper hold. She’s going to try and win this one with a sleeper I think, and it’s not a bad time to go for it after that last move.”

Sharper: “That Stranglehold Backbreaker drove the air out of Stacy Kissinger, now Ravyn looking to follow up with the sleeper hold and make sure that she can’t get any air back in to her body. Very smart tactic, and quite possibly the first bit of real WRESTLING we’ve seen in this one. They haven’t exactly made it pretty, have they?”

Dawson: “Stacy and Gable want revenge, I don’t think they came out here to put on the prettiest of matches, and considering all the interference from the people at ringside I know as a fact that neither Infamous member wanted to make this one a classic. Ravyn has that sleeper hold in right now but Stacy WILL NOT stay down. Stacy fighting up and Ravyn is not happy at all...”

Stacy battles back to her feet, nailing shots to the midsection of Ravyn before finally knocking her off her feet. She knocks Christy off the apron before grabbing Ravyn and going for the American Kiss but Ravyn pushes her off and slides to the outside. Gable gets back to his feet and Ravyn quickly kicks him in the side of the head again before looking up at Stacy angrily. She throws Jason Phillips off of his chair at ringside and folds it up, looking to swing it at Gable but Stacy grabs it and pulls it out of her hands from inside the ring, throwing it over to the corner. The distraction is all that Infamous needed though and Christy nails Stacy from behind with a shot to the back of the head before rolling out of the ring and allowing Ravyn back inside. Ravyn suddenly looks confident, stalking Stacy and shouting at her. We very clearly hear her say something about the miscarriage and when Stacy turns around she slaps Ravyn so hard it knocks Ravyn off her feet.

Sharper: “Oh god, tell me she didn’t just go there!”

Dawson: “I think she went there! Ravyn Taylor mocking Stacy Kissinger and I didn’t hear what she said exactly but I heard the words “Japan” and “miscarriage” and Stacy Kissinger has lost it!”

Stacy drops down to a mount position and begins beating the hell out of Ravyn, just punching away furiously as Ravyn desperately tries to cover up. Gable tries to get back in to the ring to calm her down but Christy nails him from behind, setting him up for the Happily (N)Ever After DDT but Gable counters out of it and goes for the superkick again that Christy is able to duck. She goes for the DDT a second time but Gable throws her up and over with a modified Northern Light’s Suplex and Christy hits the mat hard. Gable slowly gets back to his feet as the referee forces Stacy off of Ravyn, claiming he’ll disqualify her right there but Stacy doesn’t seem to care. She grabs the steel chair pushes the referee out of the ring, swinging for Ravyn who just narrowly ducks out of the way and out of the ring. Stacy turns as Christy gets back to her feet and just smashes her with the chair instead and the referee immediately calls for the bell.

Knots: “What the hell did she do that for?!”

Dawson: “Oh god, Stacy Kissinger has lost it! She’s been on edge this whole match, frustrated with everything that’s been going on, frustrated with the outside interference, frustrated with the whole situation and Ravyn Taylor absolutely set her off by going too far with her trash talking. Gable is trying to calm her down as Richter pulls Christy out of the ring but this one is over folks, the referee has thrown it out because of the use of the chair and I don’t think Stacy cares.”

Sharper: “She’s irate, and who can blame her. Christy holding her head in pain as Ravyn backs off with a grin on her face and Stacy isn’t done, she’s daring them both to come back down to the ring. She wants to keep this fight going, and that’s what it’s been folks. There wasn’t anything pretty about this match; this was a fight from the very beginning!”

Richter has to help Christy to stay on her feet as she hold she holds her head, Ravyn just grins evilly on the ramp and the curtains part and from the backstage area Brittany Lohan makes her way out on to the ramp with a smile on her face as well. Stacy is still in the ring demanding they come back down, even inviting Brittany down as well but all of the members of the Infamous seem happy to keep their distance. Syren holds Ravyn’s hand and raises it up as Ravyn continues smiling down at the ring and the scene fades to black...
