“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

 

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

 

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

 

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

 


 

MAIN SHOW:

 

“Immortals” by Fall Out Boy starts to play. We see the SCW Breakdown logo come up on the screen before we see a shot of Kelcey Wallace walking out to the ring with Chris Cannon and then showing Sienna Swann hitting the Slice of Heaven on Jake Starr. This is followed by a shot of Selena Frost hitting the tornado DDT on Ben McCaron before showing Donovan Kayl hitting the Point Blank on CHBK.

 

They say we are what we are
But we don't have to be
I'm glad to hate you but I do it in the best way
I'll be the watcher of the eternal flame
I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams

 

We see a shot of Shaun Cruze locking the Shaunshooter on Simon Lyman before showing Tommy Valentine hitting James Evans with the Griever’s Bane. We see a shot of Rachel Foxx going to hit Syren with a sledgehammer before showing Syren ducking and her hitting Adam Sharper instead before we follow up with a shot of Syren celebrating with the SCW World Championship at Rise to Greatness.

 

I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (Glass, glass)

A shot of Red Rayne spewing the Bloodbath into the eyes of Christy Matthews is shown before showing William Mason hitting the Perfect Driver on Shilo Valiant. We then see Collin Cole trying to attack Xander Valentine only to be caught and thrown down to the mat.

 

I'll try to picture me without you but I can't

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

 

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long

If we meet forever now, pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long
We could be immor immortals, immor immortals
Immor immortals,

immor immortals

Immortals

 

We then see a shot of Merrick Wiseman handcuffing Ravyn Taylor before showing James Marsh-Asher nearly getting the Last Breath on Red Rayne. Shots of CHBK standing with Mikaela Street, followed by Katie Steward posing and David Helms walking to the ring are shown. This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping Rachel Foxx with the Catnap inside Tactical Warfare before showing Jake Starr hitting the shooting five star frog splash from the top of a cage onto Silas Mason before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.


The scene cuts to the inside of the Palace in Auburn Hills in Detroit, Michigan. Pyro shoots from both ends of the stage and towards the middle before back out to the outside and then all across the stage. Spotlights circle around the arena as the camera pan throughout the arena, showing the many fans who have filed into the arena standing and cheering, waving banners, signs, t-shirt and whatever else they have. The cameras pan for a few moments before cutting to ringside to show Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at the announce table.

 

Sharper: “We are under three weeks away from Rise to Greatness! Breakdown is here at the Palace of Auburn Hills, the home of the Detroit Pistons. Adam Sharper here with Shawn Winters and as we get closer to the big night, some big matches taking place here tonight.”

 

The Breakdown logo comes up and we see a shot of Selena Frost and then a shot of Jake Starr before showing both.

 

Winters: “That’s right and two and a half weeks from now, she may be a bald, bloody mess, but tonight, she faces off against Jake Starr in our main event.”

 

Sharper: “Two former Adrenaline Champions going at it. We’re also going to see Syren face off against Shaya Blackley and I’m sure Monarchy, especially Kelcey Wallace may be watching that.”

 

Winters: “And we’re in Ravyn Taylor’s home state so you wonder what she’s planning tonight.”

 

“Rebel Son” by CFO$ plays throughout the arena .....

“God Save Our Queen”….

The lights go out.....

The video package plays on the Tron of the Union Jack waving while showing Lucas Knight, Trinity Street, Chris Cannon and finally Kelcey Wallace all posing in front of the camera before the chorus plays on the entrance theme, it then starts to play each of them in action performing their finishers on various opponents while still showing the Union Jack waving…

A single spotlight shines in the entranceway as Chris Cannon, Lucas Knight and Trinity Street come out.

The three pose in front of the entranceway looking out to the fans stoically while a chorus of boos rain down on them. A shower of fireworks streams down behind them before they slowly make their way to the ring.

 

Sharper: “Monarchy coming out to the ring. Trinity Street, Lucas Knight, the SCW Tag Team Champions. Chris Cannon…but where is Kelcey Wallace.”

 

Winters: “I don’t know, but I’m sure we may find out.”

 

Lucas Knight enters the ring and holds the ropes open for Trinity Street who then walks around the ring. Chris Cannon enters last as Lucas steps away from the ropes, allowing Cannon to enter. He walks around the ring and Trinity Street is handed a microphone. She takes it and smiles as she walks around the ring. Lucas walks over to her as does Cannon. They speak a bit amongst each other before the music fades out. Trinity then turns to the crowd and looks around.

 

Trinity: “I knew that the sophistication and arrogance in the air was not just from the fact that we had the smell of Ravyn Taylor’s destruction on Kelcey’s hands….literally….It was because we had come to the finest example of failure in the United States of America in Detroit, Michigan.”

 

The crowd boos as Trinity Street looks around. Cannon just smirks.

 

Trinity: “And I hope that Ravyn realizes that last week was merely a taste of what will happen in eighteen days when Kelcey smacks down your pathetic hope for a challenge, knocks Kennedy Street out of the way and then shows why she will Rise to Perfection this year at Rise to Greatness.”

 

Trinity pauses as the crowd boos again.

 

Trinity: “And Kelcey will have more to say to you later, Ravyn….and Kennedy, don’t worry, she’s got plenty for you too.”

 

Trinity looks around as the crowd boos some more and a faint “Ravyn!” chant against starts to echo. Trinity just smirks and looks around and shakes her head.

 

Trinity: “We are this close to Canada, so no wonder they cheer for horrible people.”

 

Lucas says something to Trinity who just laughs and Trinity then continues.

 

Trinity: “But fortunately, Ravyn, we’ll let you fight one battle because while you’re still US Champion, we’ll leave you with that for now because we have other matters to turn our attention to. Namely, my ex-husband who continues to show he is incapable of making correct decisions.”

 

Trinity shakes his head as Lucas chuckles.

 

Trinity: “Last week Simon, you could’ve sat in the back, minded yourself, maybe even spent some time with your current trollop and been happy, but you had to come out to the ring after Lucas and I gave a quick reminder to Shilo Valiant not to mess with us….And more importantly, you did it after that snake CHBK slithered away. We’re not done with him, but I guess we just have to do things a bit of an odd way around. I’ll have to get my closure with you first and Simon, by being stupid enough to come back out to the ring, I’ve got a simple solution. I’m going to end your career.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Trinity: “Since you went and ruined our marriage…I’ll ruin your life. And again, you make a bad choice. The only difference is unlike your rampant alcoholism and sleeping around with my cousin, you won’t be redeeming yourself from this one….”

 

Lucas then comes over to Trinity and stops her before then asking for the mic. Trinity hands it to Lucas as the crowd boos.

 

Lucas: “Well hold up there Trin. See, I have a hell of an idea. Because I don’t know if you remember, but it seems like the company that Simon keeps isn’t that great either and frankly, they aren’t that much better at making decisions if the hype for his new snots are any indication. I think we should take this opportunity to remove both Simon Lyman and Donovan Kayl from any sort of relevancy. I mean you get your closure…and I get to knock around an sanctimonious ass. I think that’s a hell of a plan.”

 

The crowd boos as Trinity nods, approvingly.

 

Lucas: “So I’m gonna make this even easier. So Simon Lyman can feel he’s doing something honourable instead of just showing how jealous he is that his ex-wife moved on and to something far better…I say we also put our World Tag Titles on the line and we may as well check off another box and that’s being dominant champions.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Lucas: “I think that’s a hell of an idea. Simon….Donovan…your move.”

 

Lucas turns and tosses the microphone towards Phillips. He manages to catch it as Lucas Knight backs up and turns to Trinity. The two kiss before Cannon says something to them. Lucas just laughs as they start to make their exits.

 

Sharper: “Trinity, still angry. Lucas Knight taking the initiative. Will Standing Room Only accept and will Mr. D approve?”

 

Winters: “Sounds like a hell of a match to me. But I’m wondering what Kelcey Wallace is doing? She’s got a message for Kennedy and Ravyn. Better be good.”

 

Sharper: “I’m not crazy about the fact that she’s not with Monarchy and with how intense things are getting between Ravyn Taylor, Kelcey Wallace and Kennedy Street, that’s concerning.”

 

Winters: “But exciting!”

 

The crowd boos Monarchy as they continue on their way towards the back. Cannon leads the way as Trinity and Lucas walk behind him as we cut away.


COMMERCIAL:


We return to Breakdown and we see Jessica Winters standing outside of the locker room of Standing Room Only. We see Donovan Kayl and Simon Lyman standing next to Jessica.

 

Jessica: “Welcome back to Breakdown. To open up tonight’s event, we heard from Monarchy and Monarchy made it clear. They challenged the two men standing next to me, Donovan Kayl and Simon Lyman for a World Tag Team Championship match at Rise to Greatness. They stressed closure for Trinity and essentially, a good time for Lucas. Donovan, Simon….your response?”

 

Donovan Kayl looks at Simon. Simon just nods as Jessica turns to him.

 

Simon: “There’s a lot of talk from Trinity about closure. A lot of talk about poor decisions. This…this was a poor decision by them. But if she wants closure, I want the same. I want to move forward with everything and if Trinity needs to hang onto all of that anger, fine…but I can at least do something for myself and offer my chance at some closure too. And Donovan, I don’t know what you had planned. But if you’re willing to stand by me, we can maybe remind Trinity Street and Lucas Knight what one of the most decorated teams in wrestling history can do.”

 

Simon turns to Donovan. Donovan turns to him.

 

Donovan: “I told you I’d have your back through this all. If it means that I have to help you get a monkey off your back and a chip off someone’s shoulder, I’ll happily do it. Plus, if Lucas Knight thinks kicking my ass will be that easy…he’s seen nothing yet.”

 

Donovan Kayl then holds his hand up as Simon Lyman high-fives it. They hold their hands up as the crowd cheers as the camera focuses on it. We cut back to ringside.

 

Sharper: “That’s as definitive an acceptance as possible.”

 

Winters: “They’re geared up. But what’s going to happen when the tensions drop a bit and they need to realize what they may be getting into.”

 

Sharper: “Well we still need to hear from management, but that may be just be a formality at this point.”


Freddie Collins vs. Andrew Raynes

 

The arena goes dark as the opening to "Face Everything and Rise" hits the speakers. The crowd erupts into cheers as green lights dim around the entrance ramp as its surrounded with light smoke. After the intro kicks in, the lights turn into a green aura, we see Andrew Raynes slowly starts rising up through the entrance ramp. His head tilted downwards and his hands together in front of him. He stands there for a few seconds still looking downward, getting himself prepared. Afterwards he then looks up; looking focused, and then pounds his chest, his left fist on his right shoulder and his right fist over his left shoulder and lets out a roar before heading down the ramp.

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, on his way to the ring, hailing from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada, he is Andrew Raynes!”

He walks down, still looking focused; he's slaps hands with a few fans as he gets closer to the ring and the stairs. He hops up onto the apron and through the ropes, the makes his way over towards the turnbuckle, leaps up onto the middle rope and raises his fists to the crowd to thunderous applause. He hops off and walks over towards the other corner where he gets himself ready for the match.

 

Sharper: “Two speedsters about to go at it tonight. Andrew Raynes looking to rebound after a tough loss to James Evans, but that’s not all.”

 

Winters: “There are some rumours that he may be up for a title shot coming up. The question is where. Is it going to be with Amy Chastaine or by himself?”

 

The arena goes dark as the screens light up and a union jack flag flickers across them as "Underdog" by You Me At Six hits the speakers. The curtains part as the vocalist kicks in and out runs Freddie Collins, rushing straight out to one side of the stage where he throws his arms in the air to a moderate cheer. He then rushes the other side of the stage, once again throwing his arms up before making it back to the middle of the stage in time for the songs chorus to kick in where he looks around a little before bolting down to the ring.

Phillips: "Ladies and gentlemen, making his way to the ring from London, England and now fighting out of Malibu, California; he weighed in earlier tonight at two hundred and one pounds and stands at six feet even. Please welcome, Freddie, COLLINS!"

Freddie slides under the bottom rope feet first and leaps straight back up to his feet, rushing at the nearest corner where he hops up onto the middle rope and holds his arms aloft again before dropping down and making his way over to the referee to shake the man's hand before settling back in the corner ready for the start of the match.

 

Sharper: “Freddie Collins has been bounced around, but shown flashes of brilliance. The man can fly. That’s for sure.”

 

Winters: “But he lacks a certain common sense. The kid takes unnecessary risks. I get if you want to do stupid things, but in the big time here, you need to pick your spots. Strapping fireworks to your head may seem flashy at the time, but it’s a stupid idea!”

 

Collins looks at Rayne as the bell sounds. The two briefly touch hands, more as a quick sign of respect. They circle around one another before moving in for a grapple. Raynes quickly turns into a side headlock. He pulls back on the head of Collins as Collins starts to pull Rayne to the ropes. He first him across. Raynes bounces and Collins goes for a clothesline. Raynes ducks and spins around. Collins turns and goes to grab Raynes, but Raynes turns and arm drags him over. Collins gets up. Raynes arm drags him again. Collins gets back up and Raynes jumps up and grabs the arm with a leg scissors. He tries to lock in an armbar, but Collins blocks it and stacks up Raynes.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Raynes kicks out and the crowd ohs a bit. Both men get up and Collins jumps up and hits a dropkick, knocking Raynes down and Raynes rolls to the apron and then to the floor.

 

Sharper: “Raynes showing the experience with a hell of a hold early on, but Collins showing his quick thinking.”

 

Winters: “And that’s the thing. That’s a good shot to take.”

 

Sharper: “Collins may be the faster one, but Raynes has a wealth of experience over Freddie Collins.”

 

Winters: “And wait a minute…Collins thinking of flying here.”

 

Collins looks at Raynes on the floor and Collins turns and runs across the ring. He bounces off the other side and goes to run over to the ropes. He goes to jump up, but Raynes hops onto the apron and forearms him. Collins stumbles back. Rayne slingshots into the ring and runs past Collins. Collins turns around and Raynes nails him with a diving crossbody into a pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Freddie kicks out. He rolls over and gets up and Raynes gets up and grabs his arm. He chops his chest. The crowd woos. Raynes then chops Freddie again. More woos. He then pulls him in for a clothesline, but Freddie ducks and runs into the ropes. He jumps to the middle rope and spins through into a forearm shot. Raynes hits the mat. He gets up and Freddie jumps up and hits a flying clothesline. He rolls through and to the apron. Raynes stirs and rolls over to his stomach. Collins springboards to the top rope from the apron and hits a diving splash to his back.

 

Sharper: “Collins from the top! Springboard maneuver.”

 

Winters: “And right to the lower back. Not only hurts, but it can screw up your strength. Trust me, I know.”

 

Raynes holds his back as Collins gets up. Raynes gets to his hands and knees and Collins kicks him in the shoulder and then the back of the leg. Raynes winces and kneels up and Collins lifts him up and then scoops him up and slams him down. He then turns and backs up to the corner before turning around and handspringing forward and into a standing moonsault. The crowd ohs. He goes for another pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Raynes kicks out. He turns and Collins grabs him. He then slowly lifts him up and clubs him in the back. He then spins him around and whips him into the ropes. Raynes bounces off and Collins goes for a clothesline. Raynes ducks and bounces off the other side. Collins turns around and Raynes spins around him and hooks his arms before throwing him back into a crucific driver into a pin. The crowd roars as Raynes keeps him down for the pin.

 

Sharper: “Syndication! Hooks the legs and drives him down!”

 

1!

 

2!

 

Collins just kicks out in time. The crowd ohs. Collins rolls over, holding his head and neck in pain and Raynes grabs him and hooks him up before dragging him out. He then spins him out of a half nelson and into a forearm. Raynes then pushes his head down and places it between his legs. He looks around and hoists him up and falls back with a reverse powerbomb. Collins holds his face in pain and Raynes turns and waits for him to get up.

 

Sharper: “Collins dazed, driven face first into the mat.”

 

Winters: “These two have gone at a hundred miles and hour. I’m surprised there aren’t more possible broken teeth.”

 

Sharper: “Raynes waiting for Collins to get up. He may be looking to plant him here.”

 

Raynes then grabs him from behind. Raynes lifts him up and drops him with a back suplex into a backbreaker. Raynes rolls over and looks around as the crowd cheers. He then exits to the apron and climbs up to the top rope. Raynes gets to the top and turns to Collins only for Collins to get up and fall into the ropes. Raynes lands hard, crotching himself on the top rope. The crowd ohs. Collins then walks over to him. He nails him with a punch to the jaw only to grab him by the head. He then walks out and drops him with the Brain Chemistry. The crowd ohs. Raynes rolls over. Collins hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd cheers as Collins rolls off. He looks out and takes a few breathes before getting up. The referee raises his arm. Collins smiles and walks over to the ropes behind him. He leans onto them and looks around before starting to celebrate.

 

Sharper: “Collins wins this great battle two these two quick highfliers.”

 

Winters: “Raynes nearly had him but Collins found that last moment second wind and took advantage.”

 

Collins celebrates a bit longer as we then cut backstage.


We open up backstage and we go to the backstage interview area to see Spirit Dansby at the camera.

 

Spirit: “Please welcome at this time….Christy Matthews.”

 

The crowd actually boos a bit as Christy Matthews comes into view with Pete Ebdon standing behind her. Spirit Dansby turns to her.

 

Spirit: “Christy, last week Merrick Wiseman accused you of being the woman responsible for costing Autumn Valentine the Women’s Championship. You then immediately left the ring and refused comment. Tonight, is there anything you’d like to say regarding these accusations?”

 

Christy looks down before taking a deep breath and looking right at the camera.

 

Christy: “I’m not going to hide it. I was the one who interfered that night. I don’t think it’s any secret, at least backstage, I’m a bit frustrated. I main evented Rise to Greatness a few years ago, but now I feel rudderless. But with Autumn, she regained the Women’s Championship from me, after I offered her a rematch. I suppose I thought I deserved a shot before Quinne got hers and Autumn made no effort to get that done. And a few weeks ago, I had a moment of weakness and cost my best friend something she held dearly. For that I’m sorry, for everything else, I’m not. It’s up to Autumn if she wants to forgive me or kick my ass. Just know that if it’s the second, I’m not going to just take it.”

 

Christy pauses for a moment.

 

Christy: “And if she doesn’t forgive me…I’m going to use something Pete told me a long time ago…never waste an opportunity. And I’m not going to waste it.”

 

Just then, we see Quinne applauding as she comes into view.  The crowd boos more. Christy just glares at her.

 

Quinne: “I think I should thank you then…Autumn loses another friends because of her selfishness. If you want…we could even dress you up in our colours and you can really let her know how you feel.”

 

Christy: “Alexis…I’ll still kick your ass if given the chance too.”

 

Quinne: “Well then…How about I give you that shot Autumn didn’t want. Oh wait…I’m not dumb like you.”

 

Christy then steps forward and goes to nail Quinne, but Quinne blocks it and the two of them push back and forth on one another as the crowd roars. PUNK HAZARD then comes into view and pulls Quinne back as Ebdon pulls Christy back. Spirit backs up as the crowd roars. Christy is pulled back and stops before turning and glaring at Quinne. Quinne just laughs as PUNK HAZARD stands behind her.


COMMERCIAL:


The beginning riff to "Twinge" begins blaring through the PA system and the crowd begins booing as the arena lights begin to flicker along with the beat of the music. Out from behind the curtain comes James Evans, decked out in black hoodie, with the hood over his head, walking slowly. James keeps his eyes focused on the ring.

 

Sharper: “What is James Evans doing out here? He’s not scheduled to be out here. He was in action earlier tonight prior to the show went on the air…”

 

Winters: “Maybe he’s lost. I mean he’s not surrounded by his guards. He ready to show too.”

 

James stands outside of the ring, keeping his hands in the pockets of his hoodie. He then turns and stares out at the crowd, flipping them off, earning quite a bit of boos. He smirks before he slides in underneath the bottom rope. James slowly stands up, then walks to the opposite corner and climbs the top rope, then snaps at Jason Phillips. Phillips steps over and immediately hands him the microphone. James just looks at him and smirks before hopping down. He looks at him.

 

Evans: “Good…you’re learning. Next time, hand it to me in this ring…”

 

The crowd boos as James Evans turns back to the middle of the ring. He looks around at the Detroit crowd and scoffs before continuing to speak.

 

Evans: “I hope people are realizing I’m not going anywhere. I’m not going to be pushed aside and in fact, I’m going to be doing the pushing.”

 

Evans pauses again as the crowd boos.

 

Evans: “Merrick Wiseman won’t be doing his pathetic brand of justice against me. I’ll swat him down. Maybe more ways than one….Jake Starr…he’s bush league compared to what I’m capable of and I hope that he got the hint. He can keep swinging his chair against Wiseman. I’m going to instead just make clear that I should be challenging for the World Title. And you know what…someone’s making that a bit easier to prove.”

 

Evans smirks as he shakes his head and walks around the ring.

 

Evans: “See, last week, I saw one of the so-called big stars…hell, he’s the Best of the Best. Won the tournament and everything. And then last week, I saw him out here with his balls tucked up into his chest, nearly choking on them as he sat there and pleaded with Syren to accept his challenge. A Supreme Champion, someone who is a sure-fire Hall of Famer pleading for something other than his life….I can’t think of anything more pathetic.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Evans: “Then again, for all we know, Syren may have pictures of David already on his knee from when they were dating. We’re just waiting for the Inquisitor to dig them up. But that’s fine…all that proved to me is that if David…he’s not even a champion anymore. He’s a pawn for one hormonal bitch in Regan Street…and he’s hoping to God he can keep the cats from fighting….”

 

Sharper: “Come on…we apologize for the derogatory terms of James Evans.”

 

Evans looks around.

 

Evans: “But that’s fine, David. Plead all you want. Hell, maybe you even did the dishes at both of their houses to make sure you actually get to second base tonight. I don’t know. I don’t care. I just see one of the so-called greats in this company being a total bitch. If you’re not pleading for your life or career in this ring, you shouldn’t be pleading at all. If you are still pleading, you don’t deserve to be in my way. And so I’ll not only remove you David, but I’m going to just put you out of your misery. We don’t need to have this stupid retirement count when it’s clear that you’re a shell of the man you were….”

 

The crowd boos as James Evans looks around.

 

Evans: “But I’ll give you one last night to let your balls drop and show that you still can stand for yourself. Come out to this ring later tonight….No, D…I’m not going to be happy with being on the little dark match before the show. I’m out here when the lights are on bright as I’m the only thing around here that they’re worth shining down on. So David…come on down when I make my way out later and Helms….I’ll retire you tonight.”

 

Evans drops the mic. He then smirks as he throws up his hoodie. He then walks over to the ropes and steps out of the ring. “Twinge” starts to play as the crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “James Evans, eighteen days before Rise to Greatness, is calling out David Helms…”

 

Winters: “Going to take the flame…just in a different way.”

 

Sharper: “And I don’t see Helms backing down from a fight.”

 

James Evans continues on his way to the back. He takes a few more steps before we then see his henchmen, the three men who helped him attack Jake Starr last week, walk out on the stage. Evans smirks as he walks over to them.

 

Sharper: “And those men who were with James Evans are here…”

 

Winters: “Explains why Jake Starr didn’t take his shot.”

 

James Evans smiles as he walks up to them and nods before the four return to the back and the scene cuts away.


We open up backstage to see the back entrance of the building and Anthony Wallace walking into the building. The crowd roars seeing him. He looks around before continuing on his way down the hallway.

 

Sharper: “That’s Anthony Wallace! We saw Nicole Kinneck abducted by Vixen Cain two weeks ago. Is he coming for Cain?”

 

Winters: “I’d think so. We haven’t seen him since the Best of the Best Tournament and he looks ready for business.”

 

Sharper: “Things just got interesting here.”

 

The scene fades to black and Anthony Wallace continues to walk down one of the hallways, scanning the area.


COMMERCIAL:


We open up with a shot of the outside of the BC Place before suddenly cutting to a wide shot of Vancouver as if from a satellite and we see the Rise to Greatness logo.

 

“Rise to Greatness 2015

 

18 Days Away!”

 

The words continue to play on the screen for a few moments before we cut away.


Derek Adonis vs. Stacy Kissinger

 

The lighting completely turns off inside the arena and only the SCWtron is lit. It shows a set of deep brown eyes. It slowly zooms out to show the face of Stacy Kissinger. Some people pop in the crowd. The SCWtron zooms out even further until her entire frame can be seen before if zooms back in real fast to just show Stacy’s face. Her eyes blink and then close and the SCWtron goes to black.

But it's not a few seconds before the beginning of "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten is heard. A small bit of fog rolls out onto the stage and the familiar figure of Stacy Kissinger steps out and through the fog. The stage lights come on so everyone can see her holding a microphone, wearing a yellow and medium slate blue colored robe around her, the colors of Adrenaline Rush.

She doesn't sing, but she does remove herself from the foggy stage and descends down the ramp as she looks around the arena a little bit, gently smiling.

Stacy completes her walk to the ring and slides in. She then stands up and goes to the center of the ring and slowly spins herself around so she can view the entire arena. She then removes the robe from around her, pats a patch of each color that is on the robe before placing it on her corner's turnbuckle, revealing that she has on a short frilly black skirt and a red halter top that states "Feel The Rush", in yellow, on the front.

Stacy then hears a few boos from the crowd, obviously from her critics. She shrugs her shoulders and looks back to the stage, which is when one line of pyro goes off while her entrance music is coming to an end. While it does, Stacy turns her attention to the match that she's about to face as she goes to the corner of the ring where her Adrenaline Rush colored robe is. She places her special personalized microphone down in the corner. She then warms up for the match that she's about to take part in.

 

Sharper: “Kissinger last week stepped up and helped the Adrenaline Rush, preventing them from getting potentially injured by Dante McCaffery and Dylan Howell.”

 

Winters: “She may be a horrible singer, but she apparently isn’t a liar. She did look out for their best interests last week.”

 

LADIES – YOUR ADONIS IS HERE!

The opening horns of “Weird Al” Yankovic’s “Wanna B Ur Lovr” begin to play out over the crowd, meaning the crowd is about to be “graced” by the presence of a living love machine – the man known as Derek Adonis!

And there he is! Stepping out amidst spotlights of every colour of the rainbow, the man’s outfit radiates light against a few blacklights slipped in, and he is completely oblivious to his detractors, basking in the glow of the spotlight as he begins his sensual stride towards the ring.

If you’re so inclined, you should check out the lyrics to the song that Adonis is entering to, because they really paint their own tapestry almost as well as the man himself is able to, stopping at various points on his walk down towards the ring to hit on some of the more attractive females in the area – without caring about the potential of boyfriends, husbands or security. He’ll take their hand, whisper sweet nothings to them (and, if you’ve seen girls at shows put in this kind of embarrassing situation, these do the same as all of them – and just laugh) and plant his lips ever so gently upon said hand before moving farther down the ramp.

As the chorus comes around, Adonis steps up the ramp, taking each step with added emphasis. He gets onto the apron and after winking at a particularly friendly female (probably the most receptive to advances of earlier), pulls himself through the ropes. He gyrates just a little bit in the ring (it’s better than his twerking – trust me) as his music fades.

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, Derek Adonis has some history with Stacy Kissinger. They were a team for a brief period of time before Kissinger focused on Adrenaline Rush.”

 

Winters: “I thought they were a hell of a couple. Kissinger finally had someone that could tolerate her!”

 

The bell sounds as Kissinger turns to Adonis who just holds his hands out to his sides and yells out “KABLAM!” Kissinger shakes her head as Adonis tries to woo her, a bit, dancing a bit as he starts to circle around and Kissinger turns and kicks him in the ribs. The crowd roars. Adonis stumbles back as Kissinger forearms him in the side of the head. She forearms him again and Adonis falls over to the corner. Kissinger forearms him again and again before pushing him into the corner. Kissinger forearms him a couple more times before the referee moves in for the break.

Kissinger lifts her hands up and backs up as Adonis covers up and looks at her. He then yells out “KABLAM!” Some crowd members roar and Kissinger moves back in, but Adonis grabs her and spins her into the corner and nails her with a back elbow.

 

Sharper: “Adonis spins Kissinger into the corner. He’s certainly gotten under her skin.”

 

Winters: “That’s you need to have a tough one in that ring. Any advantage you give a good opponent, it’s going to hurt.”

 

Sharper: “Derek Adonis is a bit of an odd one. I’m not sure if I’d call him a good opponent, dangerous yes.”

 

Winters: “Same damn thing.”

 

Adonis elbows Kissinger again. Kissinger walks along the ropes and Adonis grabs her and spins her around before scooping her up and turning and slamming her in the middle of the ring. Kissinger holds her back and starts to get up. Adonis kicks her in the ribs as she starts to get up and he scoops her up and slams her again. Adonis turns and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and goes for an elbow drop, but Kissinger moves out of the way. Adonis slowly gets up, and pulls down his shirt. Kissinger jumps up and dropkicks him down. Adonis starts to get back up. Kissinger grabs him and pulls him up and cuffs him in the back of the head. Kissinger then spins him around before hooking his head. She then hits a DDT. Kissinger goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Adonis kicks out. Kissinger rolls off. She then starts to get up. Adonis slowly rolls over.

 

Sharper: “Kissinger gets the DDT, but only a two count.”

 

Winters: “Imagine if these two had stayed a team, possible Tag Team Title contenders! Or at the very least, Kissinger could have someone to help her take Amy Chastaine out!”

 

Adonis gets up and Kissinger clubs him in the back and then again. She turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and Kissinger goes for a clothesline. Adonis ducks and Kissinger turns around. Adonis then runs into the ropes. Kissinger steps forward and Adonis nails her with a flying shoulder tackle. Both get up and Adonis catches her and hooks her up and hits a back suplex. Adonis slowly gets up and turns and runs into the ropes. He yells out “KABLAM!” again before going for a jumping splash, but Kissinger gets her knees up. Adonis rolls over, holding his ribs. He then starts to slowly get up and Kissinger runs into the ropes, bounces off and hits a spinning heel kick. The crowd roars. Adonis rolls over. He then slowly pulls himself back up. Kissinger then gets up and grabs him by the head before dropping him down with the Kiss of the Future. The crowd cheers.

 

Sharper: “And Kissinger plants Derek Adonis face first into the mat.”

 

Winters: “Face just went Ka-splat.”

 

Kissinger hooks the leg.

 

1!

3!

 

The crowd roars. Kissinger rolls off and starts to get up as “Fight Song” starts to play. She looks around as the official raises her arm. Kissinger looks back at Derek Adonis as he holds his forearm in pain and slowly rolls over. Kissinger watches him for a few moments before stepping through the ropes and dropping down to the floor. She then turns and starts to head to the back.

 

Sharper: “That’s that…moving past Derek Adonis. Gets the win.”

 

Winters: “Nothing fancy. Gets it done. How more should do it!”

 

Kissinger continues on her way to the back as Adonis continues to wince and grimace in pain. We then cut to the back.


We open up backstage to see Spirit Dansby outside of the locker room of Autumn Valentine. Gable Winchester stands with her.

 

Spirit: “I am here backstage with Autumn Valentine who has Gable Winchester with her…we heard from Christy earlier tonight. How will you respond?”

 

Autumn looks down and then turns to Gable. Gable just nods and Autumn turns back to Spirit.

 

Autumn: “At this point, I don’t really have much to say. I still have to figure out what the appropriate response to one’s friend stabbing them in the back. Will I want a match against her? Will I want to just move on. I don’t know. But right now…I just have more thinking to do. Sorry if that’s not a great response….but I’m not going to just blurt out whatever I feel like right now….Christy doesn’t deserve that. That’s how she did what she did.”

 

Autumn then turns to Gable. Gable then walks off with her as Spirit watches her leave. We then cut away.

We open up backstage and we see Merrick Wiseman walking through the backstage area and looking around. He turns and heads over to the Women’s locker room and knocks on the door. He waits a few moments before the door opens. Angelica Waters pokes her head out.

 

Waters: “Yes? Please tell me you don’t have more questions.”

 

Wiseman: “No…no….is Celestia Lockeheart here?”

 

Waters: “No, she wasn’t booked tonight and SCW gave her the night off.”

 

Wiseman: “Damn….Alright, well, I know who attacked her, that’s all. I’ll just have to figure out another way to let her know.”

 

Waters: “Whatever.”

 

Waters turns and closes the door. Wiseman turns and walks off.

 

Sharper: “Wiseman knows? Well, he may have had his issues with justice, but he’s certainly proving an able investigator.”

 

Winters: “Yeah, but then again, who the hell is it? Are we going to have to wait until next week?”


Brittany Lohan & Rachel Foxx vs. Kordy & Dawn Lohan

 

"Ms Hyde" by Halestorm echoes from the loud speaker.

The arena goes pitch black. A single red spotlight shines at the top of the stage. Dawn Lohan makes her way out with Kordelia Price standing behind her. Something about Dawn stand out, she's wearing a red helmet, her mouth is covered, only her eyes can be vaguely seen. Dawn and Kordy continue their slow trek to the ring, the red spotlight following them the entire way. Kordy walks up the ring steps first, followed by Dawn. Kordy holds the ropes open so Dawn can enter, once they are both inside the ring the lights come back on. Dawn lowers her head. With her arms outstretched, Kordy removes the hood from Dawn's face. Upon lifting her head back up we catch a full glimpse of the white eyes Dawn and Blood Grove are known for. Kordy then turns and steps around Dawn and waits.

 

Sharper: “Sharper: “Blood Grove ready in this one. You have to wonder how close is Red Rayne, Matt Auclair…even Blitzkrieg.”

 

Winters: “After last week when Rachel Foxx clearly wasn’t joining Rayne. She busted her open instead. There could be blood on her mind.”

 

Sharper: “And this match is interesting if only for the fact that Brittany Lohan and Rachel Foxx will be teaming together….the former Hell’s Belles members teaming for the first time in a long time.”

 

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

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

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

As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down to a snails pace as Kordy then suddenly runs forward and slides under the bottom rope. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “And Kordy going right for Brittany Lohan. Dawn staying in the ring though.”

 

Winters: “Well she had enough waiting, Kordy that is.”

 

Sharper: “And we know Kordy and Brittany have some level of history. Kordy has been in glee about this match all week if her Twitter is anything to go by.”

 

Kordy nails Brittany with a hard right and Brittany nails her. The crowd roars as they trade few shots back and forth. Kordy manages to reach up and rake the eyes of Brittany. She staggers back as Dawn then runs over and hits a baseball slide to the side of Brittany’s head. She falls over as the crowd ohs and boos. Kordy just smiles as she walks over to Brittany and pulls her up by her hair. Brittany winces a bit before Kordy spins her around and into the side of the ring. Dawn yells at her to get Brittany into the ring. Kordy looks at her before then starting to lift Brittany onto the apron and slowly into the ring. She rolls over. Kordy pulls herself up and rolls into the ring.

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan rolled into the ring by Kordy and now Dawn joining in on the assault on her sister.”

 

Winters: “Where the hell is Foxx? Or even Rachel Tatum Lee?”

 

Dawn moves over and stomps Brittany a couple of times as the crowd boos. Kordy gets up and does the same. They each take some shots on Brittany as the crowd boos. Brittany falls to the corner. Kordy gets a couple more stomps in before asking Dawn to back up. Dawn backs up, allowing Kordy to have her way. Kordy then smiles as she rubs her hands and jogs around the ring. She then runs at Brittany, as she stirs and Brittany suddenly pulls herself up and nails Kordy with a vicious clothesline. The crowd erupts in cheers. Dawn turns and Brittany turns to her as she steps forward and grabs her by the throat and hits a choke throw, throwing her across the ring. Brittany then turns and looks around before snapping at the referee to start the match. The referee double checks with Brittany who snaps at him. He calls for the bell and the bell sounds.

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan telling the referee to ring the bell. Rachel Foxx not down here, but that’s not going to stop her.”

 

Winters: “Well she better work fast. It is two against one and one is her sister. And the other wants to destroy her.”

 

Brittany turns and heads over to Kordy and stomps her in the back of the head. She rolls over before Brittany runs at Dawn as she gets up and clotheslines her in the chest. Brittany turns around as Dawn falls to the mat and walks over to Kordy. She grabs Kordy and Kordy jumps up and starts to bite her forehead, but Brittany throws her off. She rolls over and gets up and Brittany boots her in the face, she falls back into the corner. Brittany then grabs her and pulls her out and places her head between her legs, but Dawn then heads over and jumps up and hits a jumping kick to the back of Brittany’s head. Brittany falls over. Kordy immediately moves to her and mounts her and nails her with repeated lefts and rights as the crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Kordy all over Brittany as Dawn takes her down.”

 

Winters: “And time for Blood Grove to get one of their enemies out of the way. No Foxx, no Lee, why not?!”

 

Kordy nails Brittany a few more times before getting up. Dawn walks around as Brittany slowly rolls over. She turns and Kordy kicks her in the side and Dawn does the same. Just then, we see Rachel Foxx walk out from the back, brandishing a sledgehammer. The crowd roars as Rachel Foxx starts to head to the ring. Kordy turns to Dawn and Dawn turns and watches Foxx as Kordy nails Brittany a couple more times as Brittany starts to stir. Dawn backs up at the ropes as Foxx rolls into the ring and Dawn heads over to her and stomps her in the back several times. Kordy turns and runs over and does the same. Kordy and Dawn stomp away as Brittany starts to get up.

 

Sharper: “Rachel Foxx finally out here and she’s got that sledgehammer.”

 

Winters: “Not helping her now. They’re going to town on her.”

 

Sharper: “The referee can’t get in to remove the weapon though.”

 

The referee moves over to Rachel to grab the sledgehammer, but Kordy snaps at him. He backs up and Brittany gets up and Kordy turns and runs at Brittany only for Brittany to press her up and throw her over the top rope. She lands on the floor. The crowd erupts in cheers. Dawn turns and Brittany then turns and nails her with a hard forearm. Dawn falls to the mat and Brittany falls back. We then see Matt Auclair start to walk out from the back, dragging the Underground Championship at his side. The crowd boos. Dawn starts to get up and Foxx grabs the sledgehammer. She then gets up and swings it at Dawn. The crowd roars and Dawn falls back and rolls out of the ring, just narrowly missing it.

 

Sharper: “Foxx just tried to take Dawn Lohan’s head off!”

 

Winters: “Well that’s why you come ready for battle! Jesus!”

 

The referee calls for the bell. Foxx just looks at him before turning and driving the end of it into the ribs of the referee. He falls over and rolls to the floor. The crowd ohs. Foxx looks around. Brittany looks at Foxx as Foxx just glares at Dawn and Kordy. Just then, Kordy goes to enter the ring. Brittany kicks at her and she falls back. We then see Auclair go to enter the ring. Foxx turns and swings the sledgehammer towards her. Dawn watches as Auclair backs up. We then see Rachel Tatum Lee walk out from the back. She looks around as Auclair turns and notices her out. He just smiles. Rachel Tatum Lee looks at Auclair before then starting to head towards him. The crowd roars as Foxx then turns and exits the ring. Brittany Lohan watches as Auclair runs at Rachel Tatum Lee. They run at each other and Rachel Tatum Lee jumps up and goes to tackle him down with a Lou Thesz press, but Auclair turns and throws her back. She falls to her feet and staggers back as Auclair then grabs his Underground Championship as Foxx steps in front of Rachel Tatum Lee. Auclair then smiles as he backs up and backs away from Foxx and Tatum Lee.

 

Sharper: “Auclair’s standing down! He’s not going to take Requiem on together.”

 

Winters: “Or with a sledgehammer!”

 

Sharper: “But he had a smirk…he was ready to fight….”

 

The crowd boos as Auclair steps back. Foxx starts to go after him as we then suddenly see on the big screen a shot of Red Rayne shoving an official back in the backstage area. We then see Jessica Lasiewicz getting lifted up, in the catering area of the backstage area and turned before thrown into the wall. Typhoid Mary is watching.

 

Sharper: “That’s Jessica Lasiewicz! She’s had an alliance with Lohan lately.”

 

Winters: “And look…Blitzkrieg, with Rayne, with Mary!”

 

Blitzkrieg is shown grabbing Jessica Lasiewicz and dragging her up before lifting her up and turning and spinebustering her through one of the tables backstage. Blitzkrieg looks at her before dragging her out by her leg and looking at her. Red Rayne just smiles as Mary turns to Blitzkrieg. She walks up to him and nods. Red Rayne then turns and starts to walk over. Her white eyes are seen as she looks over at Jessica. She kneels over her when suddenly, we see Angelica Jones and Kayla Jones heading over and nailing Red in the side of the head. Angelica goes over and guards Blitzkrieg. Red Rayne turns and gets up as officials arrive on the scene and start to break everything up.

 

Sharper: “It was a distraction…and look at Brittany Lohan! She’s on her way to the back.”

 

Brittany disappears to the back with Foxx a few yards behind her.

 

Winters: “Auclair was just buying time…”

 

Sharper: “Blitzkrieg, Mary and Red Rayne with an attack on Jessica Lasiewicz…Blitzkrieg clearly allied with Blood Grove!”

 

We then see officials trying to keep Red Rayne again as she just glares at Angelica Jones. Kayla Jones checks on Jessica Lasiewicz as Typhoid Mary and Blitzkrieg just watch. Celeste Mallory is then noted to be at the scene as she appears on camera too. The crowd roars as we keep watching the scene and the scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


We open up backstage to see Jessica Lasiewicz now in the trainer’s room, holding her back a bit as Angelica and Kayla Jones stand with her. The trainer works on her back a bit, checking on it.

 

Trainer: “How’s this?”

 

Lasiewicz: “Sore…”

 

The door opens and we see Brittany Lohan step into the trainer’s room.

 

Brittany: “Is she okay?”

 

Angelica: “Yeah, she’s fine…”

 

Lasiewicz: “Just sore as hell. He came out of nowhere. Just grabbing a drink and got jumped.”

 

Brittany: “Trying to send a message to me, I bet.”

 

Kayla: “Jesus…this place is nuts.”

 

Angelica: “Tell me about it. Between Blood Grove and Silas’ World.”

 

Lasiewicz: “That’s what happens when you stand up to people who need to be stopped.”

 

Brittany: “Then I guess we may have to divide and conquer.”

 

Lasiewicz looks at Brittany as the trainer keeps working on her.

 

Lasiewicz: “Guess so.”

 

Brittany: “I’ll then take care of Blitzkrieg.”

 

Brittany just looks at Lasiewicz, seemingly with a bit of concern as we cut away.


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

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

"Criticize” by Adelita’s Way plays throughout the arena as Kennedy Street slowly comes out from the back, the SCW World Championship over her shoulder. She stands in the entrance way, looking down, then up and out into the arena. Kennedy cracks a sexy smirk as Ethan Von Aaron claps, she raises her right arm in the air looking up into the rafters as the shower of fireworks rain down behind her. Carlos quickly comes out and begins to drop rose petals on the ground Kennedy walks on while the monstrous Maximilian follows behind. The crowd boos as she looks over to the fans and smirks, interacting with them.

 

Sharper: “The gang is all here. And last week, Kennedy Street was enjoying how Ravyn Taylor and Kelcey Wallace kept going after each other. As here we look to the end of last week’s Breakdown…”

 

LAST WEEK – BREAKDOWN:

Ravyn goes on top of Cannon.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars. Kelcey slides in and Ravyn starts to get up and Kelcey nails her with the Perfect Ending. The crowd ohs from the shot as Ravyn falls back and lands on her back of her head and falls over. Kelcey then grabs her and drags her up as Ravyn is half out of it. She then spins her around and drops her with the Perfect Fate just for added insult to injury. The crowd ohs and boos as Ravyn is laid out in the ring. Kelcey then gets up and looks at Ravyn. Kelcey just looks down at Ravyn as Cannon slowly stirs. The crowd boos as Kelcey looks around. She continues to do so as we then see Kennedy Street walk out from the back with the World Title, Ethan Von Aaron and Maximillian. Carlos throws rose petals in front of her. Kennedy just mockingly waves at Kelcey as Kelcey turns and glares at her. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

 

Winters: “Kennedy was pleased all night and then mocking them at the end. Ravyn beats Cannon in the ring for the US Championship. Kelcey takes her shot. That’s what Monarchy was talking about earlier.”

 

Sharper: “But that wave. A friendly reminder from Kennedy Street that she’s the Champion.”

 

We cut back to a live shot to see Kennedy Street walking around in the ring. Ethan von Aaron stands a few feet in front of her as Maximillian remains at ringside. Carlos stays in the ring, throwing rose petals all over the ring.

 

Ethan: “I want all of you pathetic Detroit Rock City, unemployed, lazy bastards to sit down and listen and look at a true inspiration for all of your woes.”

 

The crowd boos loudly. Ethan look saround.

 

Ethan: “This is a true champion and a role model that all of you should follow to maybe make something out of your lives.”

 

The crowd boos some more.

 

Ethan: “So shut up and hang on every word she says. She’s going to show you all what being a champion and leader in this business, and any other, means. So now…Keenie…the floor is yours.”

 

Kennedy smiles as Ethan turns and hands the microphone to Kennedy Street. The boos continue as Kennedy thanks Ethan and then looks out at the crowd.

 

Kennedy: “It seems like a few people in this company are forgetting the reality of the situation they are in.”

 

The crowd boos loudly as Kennedy looks around.

 

Kennedy: “But don’t worry. Keenie is going to do what she always does and not only will she be fair and save lives….she is going to make sure that Kelcey Wallace and Ravyn Taylor don’t completely ruin what will be probably one of their final opportunities to win the World Title. I say that not just because neither one of them is capability of beating me…I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. I will be World Champion until I retire. So Ravyn…good luck. You’re now the holder of the most prominent singles title that someone can actually win. But it’s because of the individuals they both spend their time with, they are going to steered wrong and they’ve already squandered this opportunity.”

 

The crowd boos. Kennedy just pauses and smiles, almost ignoring the boos.

 

Kennedy: “See, I don’t think I need to show that Syren can’t beat me. She failed twice and she’d fail again if she had another chance. Ravyn…you may be smarter, but that’s not saying much. And Kelcey…if you think my sister can actually help you, you’re actually dumber than Syren.”

 

The crowd boos. Kennedy then holds up her hand, finally dealing with the crowd, trying to quiet them.

 

Kennedy: “But that’s why I’m out here. I already know that Rise to Keenie is inevitable, but I don’t want to humiliate either of them. Kelcey Wallace has thrown everything away for this shot and Ravyn Taylor wants a challenge. Well, she’ll get the challenge, but what will happen when she can’t measure up. Yes, she’ll still have her US Championship because she’s a coward that won’t put that on the line. Let’s face it…it would look better around MY waist. Everything does…including nothing at all…”

 

Kennedy smirks as some in the crowd roar.

 

Kennedy: “And Kelcey…well, I hope that she can handle another failure. I’m not sure if she has it in her. But that’s why I came out at the end of last week. I realized the two of them have focused on one another so much, that they’re too stupid to realize that they’re fighting for MY title. But that’s fine…this is their fair warning. See, normally, I would be angry about the lack of attention. But Ethan pointed something out to me. If Kelcey and Ravyn Taylor don’t even realize that I’m the most dangerous one in the ring, even with my generous reminder tonight, and they destroy their chances…all it does is make it clearer that the Taking Hold of the Flame is no longer relevant and the Trios Tournament the same…all it means is that Rise to Keenie should be an annual event as the only person capable of handling me in this ring….is me.”

 

The crowd boos as Kennedy smiles.

 

Sharper: “Oh good lord…How conceited can you be?”

 

Kennedy: “So Ravyn…Kelcey…this is your final warning. Focus on each other…humiliate yourselves worse at Rise to Greatness and I’ll take advantage, get the win I already know I have and Rise to Keenie!”

 

Kennedy smiles. She then backs up when suddenly, when “I’m So Sick” by Flyleaf echoes throughout the arena. The crowd erupts in cheers as Kennedy looks around, stunned. She turns and moves Ethan in front of her as her eyes keep darting around.

 

Winters: “Things are about to get a bit more chaotic!”

 

Sharper: “That’s Nicole Kinneck’s theme. Is she free from wherever we heard she was last week? With Vixen Cain?”

 

The music continues to play before we see Nicole Kinneck stagger out from the back, but she’s not looking playful as Ducky or even normal as Nicole. She just looks angry and starts to storm to the ring. Maximillian steps forward and Nicole runs forward and lets out a yell before jumping up and going to nail Maximillian. Maximillian catches her and Nicole starts to nail him furiously with repeated kicks and punches, more violently than we’ve recently seen from Nicole. Maximilian throws her down and she rolls over. Kennedy exits from the other side of the ring as Ethan does the same. Carlos looks around, unsure and Ethan snaps at him. Carlos runs over to join Kennedy and Ethan. Maximillian heads over to Nicole and Nicole then jumps up and starts to bite him on the forehead. Maximillian yells out and tries to get free before shoving her back and hard into the barricade. Kennedy and Ethan take their chance to run behind Maximillian and to the rampway. Carlos scurries after the three make their exit. Maximillian watches Nicole as she gets up and kicks him in the shin and goes to run past, but Maximilian grabs her and turns before throwing her again back into the barricade. He starts to back up as Kennedy, Ethan and Carlos run to the back.

 

Sharper: “While Kennedy Street is calling our Ravyn Taylor and Kelcey Wallace for their focus, Nicole Kinneck is here.”

 

Winters: “Is she like rabid?”

 

Sharper: “She’s more aggressive than we’ve ever seen her. Maximillian is triple her size and struggling with her!”

 

Kennedy, Ethan and Carlos disappear to the back. Maximillian backs up and we then see some officials running out from the back, along with security. Kinneck gets to the barricade and runs forward. The officials hold her back, but she manages to bite one of them. They pin her against the ring as she yells out at Maximillian, Kennedy and anyone else nearby. The crowd cheers as we slowly fade to black.


COMMERCIAL:


We return to Breakdown to see Kennedy Street, Ethan von Aaron and Carlos running through the backstage area. Maximillian has yet to catch up.

 

Kennedy: “What the hell was she doing out here?”

 

Ethan: “I’d love to know. I thought Vixen had handled that.”

 

Kennedy: “Well we’ve already seen what type of person he is.”

 

Kennedy turns the corner with Ethan and Carlos following just about to go into their locker room only to see Vixen Cain leaning against the wall and smiling.

 

Cain: “And what did you learn about me?”

 

Kennedy: “That’s you’re a no good son of a bitch.”

 

Cain: “Oh…that…probably a fair assessment. How do you like my gift to you?”

 

Kennedy: “Gift? You call that a gift?”

 

Ethan: “What the hell is wrong with you? She could’ve KILLED her.”

 

Cain: “Shame…but you don’t need to worry about the booping.”

 

Ethan: “What?”

 

Kennedy steps forward.

 

Kennedy: “You better deal with her. I may not like you, but you did something good two weeks ago. Finish it off and make sure she’s not a factor in my life.”

 

Cain: “Oh I will ‘deal’ with her. But not for you. For me…she’s interesting…”

 

Cain turns and starts to walk off. Kennedy just glares at him before Ethan opens the door and leads her inside. Cain continues on his way down the hallway and we cut to ringside.


Selena Frost vs. Syren

 

“Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system as the lights dim and the spotlights focus on the stage, flashing intermittently between white and pink. After a few moments the curtains part as Syren makes her way on to the stage to a huge reaction from the crowd. She stands in the middle of the stage looking out at the fans before smiling at the camera and, as the camera gets closer to her, leaning in toward it with a confident nod. “I think they’re ready for the best female wrestler in the world,” she tells the camera with a smile. The fans continue to cheer as she turns around, pointing at the back of her ring-jacket where we see the words ‘Just Be Jealous’ accompanied by her heart-logo.

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy


She spins back around again before pointing at the ring, leaning in to the camera again and smiling once again before telling the camera, “that’s it; it’s time to steal the show!” The crowd cheer more as she begins to walk down toward the ring, slapping hands on the way down to ringside before stopping at ringside and jumping up on to the apron. She looks around again at the cheering fans before ducking down, shaking her ass a little to another cheer from the fans before ducking in under the second rope and walking across the ring, climbing to stand on the middle turnbuckle and raises her hands in to the air. After a few seconds of posing she blows a kiss out to the crowd and jumps down, walking across the ring to the other side where again she stands on the middle turnbuckle, waving at the fans and blowing another kiss out to the crowd. After several more seconds she leaps down, removing her ring jacket and putting it in the corner before jumping up and sitting on the top turnbuckle.

 

Sharper: “Syren is going to be facing off against David Helms in eighteen days at Rise to Greatness. Helms putting himself in her way. Meanwhile, he’s had Syren’s number. But tonight, a different sort of challenge.”

 

Winters: “And this is going to be interesting only because Kelcey Wallace probably is watching this one from wherever she is. Shaya Blackley holding that countout win. No matter what happens here, she’s probably not going to be pleased. Either Shaya Blackley gets a huge upset and continues to prove herself or Syren, who Kelcey doesn’t like, gets a win over her key rival.”

 

The illustrious opening of "The Final Countdown" begins to play and the crowd is bathed in the splendid glow of gold lighting.

As the main riff begins rocking the arena, The form of "The Rampaging Komainu" appears amidst the fans. Back to us, feet placed wide apart and an arm reaching towards the heavens, the crowd roars. She wore supple hotpants, trendy sports bra-esque top, kneepads and shinguards (over black high boots), all a sheer confection of fine red and silver, and a funky pair of sunglasses.

Her high collared cape was her crowning glory; flashy, glamorous, and dazzling and a marvelous colour - the colour of blood and flame and sunsets. Spinning on her heel , Shaya Blackley points to the cameras and poses for the fans. She proceeded to boldly wade through this huge sea of fans with more energy than a concert.

Without pause, the fans sing the renowned lyrics as one when Shaya hits the ring. Leaping inside, her smile as bright as the noonday sun, she climbs a turnbuckle to pump an arm in the air and point a single index finger to the sky - an obvious challenge to whoever lurks in heaven.

 

Sharper: “And meanwhile, Shaya Blackley looking to continue what has been a hell of a spring and summer. Despite the fact that Kelcey turned on her, she’s been facing some of the best and rising to the challenge.”

 

Winters: “And last week, she even got into the Women’s Champion’s grill.”

 

Sharper: “After Christy was accused of attacking Autumn, Quinne laughed and Shaya Blackley took issue and supported Autumn Valentine.”

 

Syren hops down and looks at Shaya Blackley as Blackley stretches out. The two of them look at one another as the referee calls for the bell. The bell sounds and the crowd roars. Syren and Shaya start to circle and move into one another before lunging and grappling in the middle of the ring. The crowd roars as Syren turns into a side headlock.

Sharper: “A lot of class from Syren there, especially after the weeks Shaya has had. She had a hell of a fight, but not quite enough to put her down.”

 

Winters: “Close is not enough here, but if anyone wants to say Shaya Blackley is an afterthought, they’re clearly blind or dumb. You don’t take on the champions you have and make it close or win if you don’t have a high level of skill. Once is a fluke, twice is a sign, three is a trend. And this is five…”

 

Syren heads to the back as her music plays. Shaya Blackley remains in the ring, recuperating as the camera focuses on her for a moment before we cut back to the entrance way to see Syren heading to the back.

Sharper: “And from this clash, we have much, much more to come. Our main event, Selena Frost faces off against Jake Starr, but that’s not all.”

 

Winters: “James Evans has his challenge for David Helms. We’re waiting to hear from Kelcey Wallace. And on top of that Chris Cannon and Simon Lyman going to clash and I’m sure that’s going to be a calm affair!”

 

Sharper: “All that and more as Jonathan Knots joins me at ringside when we return. Breakdown rolls on, after this!”

 

The scene then fades to black.

The scene cuts to the inside of the Palace in Auburn Hills in Detroit, Michigan. Pyro shoots from both ends of the stage and towards the middle before back out to the outside and then all across the stage. Spotlights circle around the arena as the camera pan throughout the arena, showing the many fans who have filed into the arena standing and cheering, waving banners, signs, t-shirt and whatever else they have. The cameras pan for a few moments before cutting to ringside to show Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the announce table.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Detroit for Breakdown. Adam Sharper here at ringside, alongside Jonathan Knots and we’re waiting to hear from Kelcey Wallace who is somewhere in Detroit.”

 

Knots: “I guess she has the perfect plan or something, but I don’t know what she’s thinking. Hopefully we’ll find out. But we’re get the Perfect Prince or whatever the hell we should call him…he’s got Simon Lyman in a bit and I’m sure Monarchy will be joining us then.”

 

Sharper: “That is the case, along with Selena Frost facing Jake Starr in the main event here tonight and well….here we go. James Evans making his way out from the back.”

 

James Evans starts to make his way out from the back, notably without his music. He’s in his hoodie as before, but now in his wrestling gear. He makes his way down to the ring slowly as the crowd boos him.

 

Knots: “I have to admit it. I’m liking this new attitude. Yeah, he’s completely idiotic with some of his thoughts on some people, but at least he’s making sure Wiseman, Helms and Starr get knocked down to size.”

 

Sharper: “James Evans came out earlier tonight and called out David Helms. He insulted him and his integrity-“

 

Knots: “And his manhood.”

 

Sharper: “Well, I don’t think we need to wait long for Helms. I can’t see David Helms standing down from a challenge.”

 

James Evans walks over to the ring and hops onto the apron. He then looks around before stepping into the ring. He walks around the ring as the boos continue. He then pulls off his hoodie and throws it down to the outside. He turns and looks back at the entrance way before then mockingly putting his hands up and calling for Helms to come out to the ring. He then looks around as the crowd boos some more.

 

Sharper: “The question now is where the hell are those men James Evans had.”

 

Knots: “Maybe attacking Jake Starr again. That would be sweet!”

 

A few moments pass as James Evans looks around. The crowd continues to boo James Evans before the arena's lights cut and the room falls into complete darkness as a buzz spreads through the crowd, the screens suddenly lighting up with one single solitary word...

"BANG!"

As the crowd react, the entire stage lights up with a brilliant white light and the opening riff of an SCW remixed version of "All I Want" by A Day To Remember hits the pa system. The crowd erupt into cheers again as they spot the silhouette of David Helms standing there, his arms held aloft and his hands throwing the Self High Five, all framed by the brilliant white light behind him.

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

The intro gives way to the chorus and the lyrics of said chorus flash up on the screen as Helms suddenly jumps into the air and breaks his hands apart, pyrotechnics exploding on either side of the stage as he lands and the house lights raise again as Helms grins at the fans before suddenly bolting towards the ring.

Phillips: "Making his way to the ring from Red Bank New Jersey now fighting out of Santa Monica California; he weighed in earlier tonight at one hundred ninety nine pounds and is an SCW Supreme Champion. Give it up... FOR DAVID HELMS!!!"

Reaching the ring, Helms jumps up and slides under the bottom rope feet first before jumping straight back to his feet and climbing straight to the middle rope of the nearest ring post. He throws his hands up into the Self High Five to another cheer before hopping down and walking towards the closest camera on the outside. He throws his hands into the Self High Five to the camera so that his face is framed by the gap in the middle of his hands. Grinning, he mouths the word "Bang!" into the camera before turning and settling back into the corner to another cheer from the fans as he waits for the start of the match and looks right at James Evans. Evans smirks.

 

Sharper: “Helms coming out. Not going to turn a challenge.”

 

Knots: “And you thought Evans’ friends were going to kneecap him backstage!”

 

The bell sounds as Helms and throws his hands up to Evans. The crowd cheers as the two circle a bit and then move towards one another. They lunge and grapple and Helms and Evans push back on one another. Helms gets the advantage and manages to push Evans back to the ropes. Evans manages to turn and turns Helms into the ropes and then spins him around and into corner. Evans leans back and the referee calls for the break. Helms looks at him and then slowly backs up. Evans goes to nail him, but Helms blocks it and nails him with a hard right. The crowd roars. Evans walks out of the crowd, holding his jaw. He turns around and Helms blasts him with another hard right and Evans falls over to the next corner. Helms moves in and nails him with another shot and then a chop. The crowd woos as Evans walks out of the corner and walks along the ropes.

 

Sharper: “And Evans looked for the cheap shot and just found out that Helms will happily throw bombs too!”

 

Knots: “Well it was supposed to be a clean break for Helms! Not Evans!”

 

Sharper: “It’s for both!”

 

Knots: “Pfft!”

 

David follows after Evans and nails him with a hard right. Evans falls over to the corner.

Sharper: “Stop it.”

 

Knots: “Well he’s the one retiring. Maybe we just found out that he’s needing a good dusting.”

 

Sharper: “I’m not even….James Evans pulling Helms up by the hair. No respect.”

 

Knots: “I thought he made that clear earlier!”

 

Evans gets Helms up to his feet and then grabs him by the waist and throws him back with a release German suplex. The crowd ohs as Helms rolls over and onto his back.

Helms falls to his knees and slowly gets up. Just then, we see the three men from earlier walk out from the back. Helms looks up and notices them as they start to head to the ring. The crowd boos.

Helms turns around and James drills him with a clothesline. He then drops down and starts to hammer him in the jaw. James then gets up and walks over to the ropes as Wiseman snaps at him and tells him to get rid of them. James makes a rather rude gesture that causes the camera to cut away as Helms stirs.

COMMERCIAL:


We see David Helms slowly walking backstage in pain. He continues down the hallway as the crowd cheers for him.

 

Syren: “David!”

 

Helms stops and turns as Syren jogs over to him. Helms just holds a hand up.

 

Helms: “Zoe…I’m not in a mood for a headache or argument right now-“

 

Syren: “No…look…Tommy told me what you’re doing. I may not trust you…but I’m willing to give him a shot…if it’s true, then let’s make Rise to Greatness what it should be, two of the best having a hell of a match to see who is better. I owe you that if this is your last Rise to Greatness….but if I find out, he’s feeding me a line…I’m going to worry about giving you anything you deserve.”

 

Helms: “That’s fair…and you should trust him.”

 

Syren: “I hope I can.”

 

Helms then looks down before extending a hand.

 

Helms: “Don’t know if this means anything, but I’ll shake on it just to make the point.”

 

Syren looks at the hand. She then shakes it too. Helms turns and walks off as Syren watches him walk off. The crowd cheers as Syren turns and heads in the opposite direction.


Darkness engulfs the arena as we hear the eerie sound of something tapping against glass. After a few moments there comes a whisper in the sound of a woman’s voice of one short, iconic word – “NEVERMORE”. With that we hear the opening from “Open Your Eyes” by Guano Apes.

“Hide your face forever
Dream and search forever-ever-ever-ever”

The song gets stuck on the word, and is then interrupted by the deep sound of the voice of Marilyn Manson.

“Just lay your head in daddy’s lap
You’re a bad girl!”

“Bad Girl” by Avril Lavigne hits the PA system as the lights come back up and we see the screens playing images of Ravyn Taylor’s various antics in and out of the ring. After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn steps out on to the stage with a smirk on her face as the crowd cheers. She holds the SCW United States Championship. She stops on the stage, twirling for the camera almost mockingly.

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy


After a few moments she starts to make her way down to ringside and then steps up the ring steps, wiping her feet on the apron before vaulting over the top turnbuckle and rolling back to her feet. She walks over to the far corner of the ring, stepping on to the middle turnbuckle. She looks around as the crowd cheers her.

 

Knots: “I assumed she didn’t have a hometown. No one wanted her.”

 

Sharper: “Stop it….she’s at home here. As close as she’s going to get to Hell, Michigan. The US Champion. Retained last week against Chris Cannon and you have to wonder what she’s thinking about what she’s heard tonight from Monarchy, from Kennedy.”

 

Knots: “Hopefully she realizes she won’t be World Champion in eighteen days!”

 

She walks over to the corner and is handed a microphone. She looks around as the crowd cheers her and Ravyn smirks a bit before looking down and nodding. She then looks out at the crowd.

 

Ravyn: “I have to admit…not used to getting adulation.”

 

The crowd cheers a bit as Ravyn smirks.

 

Ravyn: “Then again, I’m used to hearing what I have been hearing from some other people around here. I’m sorry if I’m not quivering in my boots or concerned that I’m going to crying, blubbering in the corner after Rise to Greatness. I also don’t need to yell and swear and threaten every twenty-eight seconds, because frankly, Trinity, I actually don’t need to threaten and swear and yell. I just do. But that’s fine. See, I don’t know when we’re going to get this video production from Kelcey, but I’m sure looking forward to it. I wish I had some popcorn, but I couldn’t get some brought to the arena on short notice. All I could get is the US Championship which I’m sure Monarchy thought would be with them. Oops…sorry for ruining the plans.”

 

Ravyn pauses as the crowd cheers some more.

 

Ravyn: “And about the United States Championship…I apparently hold the most prestigious attainable title in this company. I suppose that’s a compliment. I figured Kennedy would want all that attention, but that’s fine. But then again, I’m not sure if Kennedy Street has been out in the sun as I’m sure Trinity Street or Kelcey Wallace would claim or just had forgotten about what reality really is. In fact, I’m pretty sure I’ve held this title for longer than you’ve been demanding World Title shots…if not, it feels that long since I almost can’t picture myself without it. It’s why I’m getting a bit bored and want a new challenge, one that comes in the form of you. Kelcey Wallace is part of it and you can claim I’m not keeping my attention on your enough Kennedy, but you neglect one thing. Unlike you or Kelcey Wallace, I’m capable of handling more than one person at a time.”

 

Ravyn smirks, some cheer, while some males roar.

 

Ravyn: “But I also know how to deal with all of my enemies, something Monarchy probably should be aware of as their enemies are rising by the week. Mine…they’ve learned to move on because they can’t outduel me.”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Ravyn: “Kelcey, Kennedy, you two should realize that. I’m impressed by your confidence, but it means nothing to me. My whole career is doing what no one believed I could do to THEM…and Kennedy, if you want my attention, just ask. You’ll learn to regret it.”

 

Ravyn Taylor then brings the microphone down before turning and going to hand off the title. Just then, we see a shot of a street in Detroit. The camera scans to see several dilapidated houses, many boarded up. The darkness from the light is only countered by the light of the street lights. We cut back to the arena to see Ravyn Taylor looking at the big screen as we then see Kelcey Wallace on camera, dressed in a long coat, clearly showing her wealth as well.

 

Kelcey: “Oh Ravyn…I’m glad you came out to the ring to see this so now I know you will be listening…I figured I’d go around and see what your homestate was like. I tried to get to Hell, Michigan, but it was misnamed as Detroit is closer to it.”

 

Boos can be heard from the crowd as Ravyn is shown smirking in the ring before we cut back.

 

Kelcey: “Do you not notice a clear difference between whatever is behind me and myself? It’s like you and I, Ravyn. In fact, I would say Kennedy Street has more in common with you, than me. Confused…I can help. See, I heard Kennedy Street gave some speech about how she was doing us a favour. No…all she wants is the attention. She’s like so many others that run up against Monarchy. They want the spotlight because they know we demand it.”

 

Kelcey then looks behind her as the camera turns to show the dilapidated street again. We even hear a barking dog.

 

Kelcey: “This…no one wants to see it. No one wants to know it’s there. No one wants to give it its due. They hope it just goes away. And in fact, it’s ignored. Just like Kennedy Street fears she’ll be after Rise to Greatness and why, you Ravyn are so desiring to show the world you can be World Champion. You want your challenge. No, Ravyn…you want people to remember you’re there.”

 

Kelcey shakes her head.

 

Kelcey: “It’s sad really. Because it also shows how misguided Kennedy and how clueless you are Ravyn. In this business, legacy comes from what you do in the ring. World Titles, lasting moments…and you’ve had a few of them, but then again, you like to be the man behind the curtain. It’s funny, for your history of sleeping with CHBK, he never taught you about how a legacy is defined, even when he was pumping it into your on that sex tape of yours.”

 

Ravyn smirks again in the ring. She shrugs as the crowd roars a bit in the arena.

 

Kelcey: “And my legacy will be defined by one thing you and I do have in common…you grew up near this…you grew up from this…trash.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Kelcey: “I grew from adversity. I got out from under the thumb of Silas Mason and now I am back to being Perfect. I will be back to being a Champion! You can fight that all you want Ravyn. But while you managed to get through your own adversity to reach the top of your smaller mountain. That’s all you will accomplish. But think, much like you grew from trash, Kennedy Street has merely turned into it. It pains Trinity to see her sister drag the Street name through the mud. So I will help her out by ending her World Title reign and retaking my spot as the Lord of this Domain and bring the World Title to Monarchy.”

 

Kelcey then walks down the street a bit as the crowd boos.

 

Kelcey: “But Kennedy, if you want attention, I’m sure you can get it. Just come and walk down this street. Where Ravyn Taylor learned to be a Bad, Bad Girl…you can be someone’s naughty girl as I’m sure there are plenty of people here who would be happy to make you their champion. I know you have the skills.”

 

Kelcey smirks as the camera shows some of the locals just watching this odd scene. On man stands up, almost ready to attack Kelcey.

 

???: “We should go.”

 

Kelcey: “One more moment…”

 

Kelcey turns back to the camera.

 

Kelcey: “And Ravyn…enjoy your win last week against my husband. You won’t be beating me. Instead, I hope you enjoy your peak. Because you’ve reached it…just like this city has.”

 

Kelcey then walks towards the camera and past it. The camera backs up and focuses on the street as we see someone heading over towards their driveway, and heading towards them as the scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


We return to Breakdown, cutting backstage to see Nicole Kinneck running down one of the hallways. Vixen Cain can be seen walking after her.

 

Cain: “Nicole….come with me. I can help you out here.”

 

Kinneck turns and just looks at him wide eyed. We then see that she’s headed towards one of the exits. Security is also with Cain and some try to grab at her, but she kicks one and turns and starts to storm off as we see Anthony Wallace poking his head around the corner.

 

Anthony: “Nicole!”

 

Nicole: “Oh you…yes!”

 

Nicole then storms over to Anthony and suddenly nails him with a hard right and kicks him in the side. Anthony falls over and security continues to go after Nicole. Nicole then turns and runs off, going through one of the exits and heading off into the backlot. A couple of guards chase after her, but just then, we see Cain storm towards the door and Anthony Wallace gets up and spears him down. The crowd roars. Cain covers up as the guards and officials run over and start to pull Wallace off of him.

 

Wallace: “Get off! Let me get him!”

 

Wallace keeps getting pulled up. Cain just smiles.

 

Cain: “Hmmm…you’re interesting too…”

 

Wallace nearly gets free and Cain slides back as he then pulls himself up. He glances at the door before turning.

 

Cain: “Fine…go find her. And just hope you don’t get taken out by her.”

 

Cain turns and walks away from the door as Wallace continues to be held back. The crowd boos as we cut away.


Chris Cannon vs. Simon Lyman

 

The house lights dim and the opening cymbal crash and riffs to "Tonight" by Seether begins to blare throughout the arena. A buzz can be heard rising through the crowd into cheers as the lyics begin...

I'm not gonna waste this
This opportunity's mine
I'm sick of complaining
About a beautiful life

On the Jumbotron, clips of Simon hitting high impact and high risk moves plays as the song continues, hyping the fans even further

How did we get here?
Did we forget all the things inside?
And how do we stay here?
Do we embrace all the things denied?

As the refrain begins, Cailey Carter makes her way out on stage first dressed in a form fitting short black dress and black high heeled boots followed by Simon in his ring attire. The two look at each other then the crowd smiling ear-to-ear before striding to the ring confidently side-by-side

I feel so alive tonight
You got me feeling sublime
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over, and we're older

Phillips: Now approaching the ring accompanied by Cailey Carter, from Columbus, Ohio and weighing 230 pounds, "Simply Sensational" SIIIIIIIIMON LYYYYYMAN!!!

While the fans roar, Simon and Cailey arrive at the ring. Simon takes off his jacket handing it to Cailey and they kiss each other briefly, then Simon enters the ring with Cailey in his corner. He goes to each of the corners and climbs to the second turnbuckle while the song continues to play

Like sugar and cyanide
These worlds are gonna collide
I want to yell it from the rooftops down
Until it's over, and we're older

As "Tonight" winds down with Simon now in his corner we see a slight smile still on his face looking out into the crowd anticipating the start of the match and the show he will put on for them before going back to his corner to talk with Cailey on the outside awaiting the start of the match.

 

Sharper: “Earlier tonight, the challenge was made to Simon Lyman and Donovan Kayl at Rise to Greatness. Monarchy wants to end them.”

 

Knots: “Trinity wants to end Simon. Lucas Knight just wants to take out Kayl for fun. Don’t piss off the King and Queen. They’re going to apparently want to control their domain!”

 

Sharper: “And in the process, they make a statement. One of the most decorated teams in wrestling today, they could conceivably outduel them, get some closure, but also make clear their stake in the wrestling world.”

 

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

“Monarchy Presents...”

.CHRIS CANNON.

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

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, introducing at this time…Hailing from Hermosa Beach, CA... He weighed in tonight at two-hundred and thirty-five pounds... CHRIS CANNON"

The crowd has a mixed reaction for the British superstar as he begins to walk down towards the ring with a confident stride in his step. Cannon stops and turns to look at one fan that is extending a hand which he would slap normally but doesn't as he continues down to the ring.

Once at the bottom Cannon then slides into the ring and then climbs the nearest turnbuckle. Chris then raises his arm above his head holding a fist as the crowd boos him. He just shakes his head before dropping down. He then suddenly runs across at Lyman and kicks him in the ribs. The crowd boos as Lyman staggers back to the corner. Cannon nails him again with another kick and then nails him with a hard right. The bell sounds as the match starts.

 

Sharper: “And Cannon going right after Lyman. Come on! Not even waiting for the bell.”

 

Knots: “Maybe we know the real plan. Challenge them to the match knowing Simon Lyman is going to fight no matter what and then Trinity can humiliate him at Rise to Greatness.”

 

Sharper: “I wouldn’t put that past them!”

 

Cannon nails Lyman with another hard right before grabbing him and turning him around and nailing him with a hard right. Lyman stumbles out to the middle of the ring. Cannon then kicks him in the ribs before hooking him up and throwing him back with a vertical suplex. The crowd boos as Lyman holds his back. Cannon forces him down and drives his forearm into the face of Simon. Simon tries to get him off as Cannon grinds the forearm across his nose. Lyman rolls over as the crowd boos. Cannon then gets up and stomps him in the back and then again and again. Lyman rolls over and goes to the apron before falling to the mats and walking around. Cailey Carter watches on with concern as Cannon steps through the ropes and drops down to the floor. (1)

 

Sharper: “Cannon gets Simon Lyman to the floor. Cannon however keeping the fight on.”

 

Knots: “Hell. Stay out there and beat the hell out of him. We’ll see if that’s the plan here.”

 

Cannon walks over to Lyman and nails him with a hard right. Lyman falls to the mats. (2) He slowly starts to get up and Cannon grabs him. The crowd boos and Cannon turns and goes to whip him into the barricade. Lyman however spins through and sends Cannon in. (3) The crowd cheers as Cannon hits the barricade. Lyman turns and runs after him and jumps up and goes to hit a splash, but Cannon moves out of the way. Lyman lands hard on the barricade and falls back. (4) He rolls over as Cannon then walks over to him. (5) He drags him up and turns and goes to drag him over to the nearby steps. (6) Lyman however stops him and nails him in the ribs with a shot before driving him face first into the ring apron. (7) He turns and rolls him into the ring. Simon rolls in after. Cannon starts to get up and Lyman gets up and drives his elbow into the back of Cannon’s head, knocking him down.

 

Sharper: “Lyman knocks down Cannon. Nothing fancy. But effective.”

 

Knots: “And Lyman’s the one that got him back into the ring. Maybe Cannon is looking to just take him out. Maybe he can’t count. Both likely, but who knows.”

 

Cannon rolls over and Lyman gets up and hits an elbow drop. He goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Lyman kicks out. He rolls over. Cannon starts to slowly get up as Lyman pulls himself up and grabs Cannon. He then knees him in the ribs and whips him across the ring. Cannon bounces off and Lyman jumps up and hits a dropkick. The crowd cheers. Cannon rolls over in pain as Carter applauds gleefully. Cannon grabs at the ropes and starts to get up and he turns around to Lyman who kicks him in the ribs before he throws him over with a snap suplex. Lyman gets up as Cannon stirs and Lyman snapmares him over. He then hits another elbow drop and goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Cannon kicks out again. We then see a shot backstage of Trinity Street and Lucas Knight watching from the Monarchy locker room.

 

Sharper: “There you see Trinity Street and Lucas Knight. They’re watching this match backstage so clearly they’re confident in Cannon.”

 

Knots: “Is Trinity sharpening a knife back there…oh wait…that’s just her nails.”

 

Sharper: “Stop.”

 

Knots: “What? Seriously….she’s got anger issues. She hates everyone!”

 

Simon slowly gets up as Cannon rolls over. Simon slowly lifts him up and Cannon nails him in the ribs with a shot. Simon winces. Cannon nails him again and Simon knees Cannon in the ribs. Simon then whips Cannon across the ring. Cannon bounces off and Simon goes for a clothesline. Cannon ducks and bounces off the other side. Lyman turns and Cannon kicks him in the ribs. He then throws him back with a mat slam. The crowd ohs and Lyman holds his head in pain. He then slowly rolls over and starts to grab at the ropes. Cannon just watches him before kicking him in the ribs. Lyman pops up and falls back into the corner. Cannon then walks over and steps up onto the middle turnbuckle, straddling Lyman. He then nails him with a series of hard right hands, right to the face of Lyman. The crowd boos with each shot. Cannon after five punches, he looks out at the crowd and mocks them. They boo him more and Cannon then jumps up and off the middle turnbuckle and hits a dropkick to the face of Lyman. Lyman falls forward to his knees and then drops down to his stomach. Chris Cannon rolls over and looks out at the crowd.

 

Sharper: “And that young man who used to be a paragon of what we promoted as a true champion, a hell of a guy…he’s bought into seizing the day and whatever Monarchy is offering.”

 

Knots: “Yeah…now he just needs to get out of Kelcey’s shadow and we’ll see what he can do. This is a man who challenged for the World Title.”

 

Sharper: “A title shot the fans voted him in for.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, that won’t be happening again.”

 

Cannon then walks over to Lyman as he stirs and he then turns and hits a vertical suplex. Cannon smirks as he swivels his hips and starts to get up. The crowd boos. He throws Cannon back with a second suplex. The crowd boos some more. Cannon then starts to get up, holding on still. He then goes to lift Lyman up, but Lyman counters with a small package.

Cannon kicks out. Both men get up and Cannon kicks Lyman in the chest. He pops up and Cannon runs into the ropes. He bounces off and Lyman scoops him up before throwing him back with a fallaway slam. The crowd cheers. Lyman then slowly starts to roll over as the crowd cheers for him. Cannon grabs at the ropes and uses them to get back up. He turns to Lyman and Lyman lifts him up and spins him out into a spinebuster. He goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Cannon shoots his shoulder up. Lyman rolls off. He then starts to get up.

 

Sharper: “Almost had him. Cannon just getting his shoulder up.”

 

Knots: “Almost doesn’t help him enough. He needs to win. So does Cannon.”

 

Sharper: “Both have taken some lumps lately. Who is going to get the win?”

 

Lyman gets up and Cannon rolls over. Lyman pulls him up and kicks him in the ribs. He then places his head between his legs. He hoists him up and gets him up to his shoulders, but Cannon manages to counter into a sunset flip, but Lyman rolls through. Cannon rolls over and Lyman kicks him in the ribs again. He then turns and whips him into the ropes. Cannon bounces off the ropes and Lyman lifts him up, but Cannon spins through and grabs him in a full nelson. Lyman struggles out and manages to get an arm free, but Cannon then knees him in the back and nails him hard in the ribs. He then locks in the full nelson again and hoists him up before dropping him down onto his knee with the Set-Piece. The crowd ohs and boos. Cannon then hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd boos. Cannon then looks down at Lyman. He glances at Cailey Carter who just look on in the ring. Cannon then gets up as he has his arm raised.

 

Sharper: “Cannon with the Set-Piece wins it here.”

 

Knots: “And Simon Lyman’s success against Monarchy continues to slide.”

 

Sharper: “And that’s only going to frustrate, but hopefully motivate…I can only hope. For Simon’s sake. For Donovan Kayl’s sake…”

 

Cannon then looks over at Simon again before stepping out of the ring. He drops down and smiles as he starts to head to the back. Simon Lyman stirs in the ring, holding his back as Cailey Carter enters the ring and checks on him as he starts to stir. Cannon continues on his way to the back and we go backstage.


The scene cuts backstage as we see Jessica Winters standing at the SCW interview area.

 

Jessica: “Please welcome at this time, Blitzkrieg, with Typhoid Mary and Celeste Mallory.”

 

The crowd boos as Blitzkrieg comes into view and Typhoid Mary walks over with him. Celeste Mallory stands next to Blitzkrieg and Jessica turns to Typhoid Mary. Mary just smiles.

 

Jessica: “Earlier tonight, the Blood Grove attempted to attack Jessica Lasiewicz. Brittany Lohan interpreted this as an attack on her. Was this the case?”

 

Mary just smiles.

 

Mary: “If she wants it to be, then all the power to her. See, Brittany is now showing that she’s not got much left and frankly, she didn’t have much left when I mentored her. Blitzkrieg is doing a service to her. And in the process, well, Red figured that Jessica Lasiewicz didn’t need to be alone and we figured there may be a chance to add to the ranks. Her family got in the way. Honourable really. But foolish. See, nothing will stop Blood Grove and I say that because my Titan here will destroy anyone in our way. And that frankly means Brittany Lohan. So if she wants to divide and conquer, she wants to come after us….My Titan welcomes it, don’t you.”

 

Mary turns to Blitzkrieg and Jessica cautiously puts the microphone up to him.

 

Blitzkrieg: “Brittany…your downfall will be my will. See you at Rise to Greatness.”

 

The crowd boos as the camera focuses on Blitzkrieg as he just continues to look out. Mary smiles as Celeste Mallory does the same. The scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


“Hail to the King” plays and the crowd starts to boo loudly. The cameras turn to the entrance way as we see Silas Mason walk out from the back. Katie Steward is out first with TJ Johnson. We then see Sienna Swann who glances back as B.Real walks out and we then see Regan Street. The crowd just boos the group.

 

Sharper: “You notice that Silas’ World is looking a bit less populated and thankfully that’s due to Angelica Jones and Harmony Fisher realizing that he’s a snake oil salesman with an abusive history.”

 

Knots: “They’re throwing their careers away and for what? For what? He has three champions right now. It just cut the dead weight.”

 

Silas Mason then turns and motions to his clients and tells them to start to head to the ring. Katie Steward goes down first with TJ Johnson and Silas turns to Sienna Swann. Sienna Swann follows with B.Real walking with her. Regan just looks at Silas. Silas tells her to head to the ring. Regan then looks at Sienna, who looks back, before starting to follow them down to the ring. Silas Mason takes up the rear.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street…I just hope she hasn’t done too much damage here to her career.”

 

Knots: “Oh please! Silas Mason says she’ll be champion. She’ll be champion!”

 

Katie enters the ring with TJ as B.Real hops onto the apron and holds the ropes open for Sienna Swann. Swann enters the ring and Regan Street then follows. Silas Mason walks over to the ring and walks up the steel steps. The crowd boos some more as Silas then enters the ring. He walks around the ring before turning and looking at Sienna. Sienna says something to Silas and Silas responds with something before he turns and heads over to the corner and snaps at Jason Phillips for a microphone. He’s handed on and turns back to the middle of the ring. The crowd continues to boo as his music fades out and Silas just glares at the crowd.

 

Sharper: “He is a disgusting human being.”

 

Knots: “He just does what he needs to to get results. It’s not for everyone!”

 

Sharper: “Give me a break….You can’t believe that!”

 

Silas looks around before holding the microphone up to his mouth.

 

Silas: “It looks like we got another traitor in the midst….Baby Red…you just made the biggest mistake of what’s left of yer career. Ya should be trustin’ yerself more than say yer daughter or others who have nowhere near the experience ya have….but if ya wanna be dumb, and lose all of the opportunities I can give ya, I’ll happily let ya drown.”

 

Silas smirks.

 

Silas: “Ya can join mah whore, Baby Cakes and Brittany in the other failures who couldn’t handle the fact that they really aren’t champions worthy of bein’ guarded by me. But while I could just let y’all just run free and fail by yerselves, I am somewhat of a humanitarian.”

 

Sharper: “Please.”

 

Silas looks around as the crowd boos.

 

Silas: “See, I still own, at least two of ya…Baby Cakes…Baby Red…freedom don’t come cheap. And I was ready to have ya just sit at home for the rest of yer careers. Force ya to find other work. Make sure that ya never make a dime from this industry again. And any ya do…it goes to me.”

 

Silas pauses as more boos come from the crowd. A “Silas sucks!” chant starts.

 

Sharper: “I happen to agree with the crowd.”

 

Knots: “What?”

 

Silas just smirks.

 

Silas: “Nah, but I know many others who do.”

 

Silas smirks as the crowd boos some more.

 

Silas: “Now, I was ready to end yer careers, but Baby Face had a helluva idea. Earlier tonight, she said…why don’t we just show them what they’re gonna lose out on. And at Rise to Greatness, we take Baby Cakes, Baby Red…and her dumbass daughter and put them up against my world.”

 

Silas smirks.

 

Silas: “And y’all can thank Baby Face for it…she’ll be leading the team that is gonna make your fate…And the best part is…if y’all want to compete, ya need to agree because I control yer bookins’. It’s up to yer daughter if she’ll sign up too. Because if y’all win, y’all beat Baby Face, Baby Goddess and Baby Cat…I’ll rip up yer contracts and Baby Red, Baby Cakes, you can fail on yer own. But if mah world wins….all three ya are banned from wrasslin’ period…”

 

Silas laughs as he just smirks. He turns to Sienna.

 

Silas: “Thank ya Baby Face…I knew ya had the mind of a champion too.”

 

Silas steps back as Sienna smiles a bit and turns to Regan. Regan just looks at her. Sienna nods and Regan just watches her as Silas turns and points to the back. “Hail to the King” plays as the boos continue.

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe it. He’s forcing them to put their careers on the line.”

 

Knots: “He’s fair. They win, they prove they’re better off, then they’re free! And Jessica Lasiewicz, let’s see how strongly she feels about Silas!”

 

Sharper: “That’s right. She has choice, but even Silas is manipulating that.”

 

Katie exits the ring with Regan Street, Sienna Swann, B.Real and TJ Johnson. Silas exits last. He then takes the rear as Silas’ World slowly starts to head to the back. The crowd boos Silas still as he just smiles on his way to the back.


COMMERCIAL:


We open up backstage, returning from commercial, to the locker room of Angelica Jones, Kayla Jones and Jessica Lasiewicz, with Brittany Lohan. Marisa Condolesa is in the locker room with them. The crowd cheers.

 

Marisa: “Welcome back to Breakdown. I am here with Jessica Lasiewicz, the Jones Family and Brittany Lohan. The challenge has been made by Silas’ World. The terms are what they are. The question is whether you will take the risk and stand with your mother and Harmony Fisher at Rise to Greatness.”

 

Angelica and Kayla just look at Jessica as she looks right at Marisa Condolesa.

 

Jessica: “Do I really have to answer? Not only do I get a chance to help my mother regain her career and integrity, but I get to try and knock Silas on his ass by humiliating him at Rise to Greatness. I’ll be there and ready to go. And if I go down, we go down….We’re going to down swinging. That’s for damn sure.”

 

The crowd cheers. Angelica Jones just smiles at Jessica as Jessica turns and we cut away.


Tommy Valentine vs. Amy Chastaine

 

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

THOMAS VALENTINE WILL BLOW THE
ROOF OFF IN

5...

4...

3...

2...

1...

NOW!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

"BABY I'M BAD, I'M THE FEAR IN YOUR EYES. THAT HATE IN YOUR HEART HAS BEEN BRANDED WITH MY NAME!"

As he walks past the barrier he looks out into the crowds and goes to high five as many fans as possible before moving on down the ramp, revelling in their adoration and cheers before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, making beckoning gestures again before smiling at all the fans in the crowds. He jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles before standing still in the centre, cranking his neck. Thomas then takes the sunglasses off and hands them to the referee, telling him to keep them safe before waiting for his opponent.

 

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine has made clear his desire to make waves in the lead-up to Rise to Greatness. He put it off last week to help David Helms and spoke to Syren. We’re not sure much about that conversation.”

 

Knots: “Except that he’s an idiot. Who cares about your friend? Focus on yourself!”

 

"Hell & Consequences" by Stone Sour begins as the lights flash blue and white in beat to the music. A video plays behind her with highlights of some of Amy's spots.

Yeahhhh!

Amy comes out from behind the curtain, and walks to the top of the ramp, and flips her hair out of her face before raising an arm over hear head. She starts down the ramp, keeping her eyes on the ring, and greeting a fan or two along the way.

I’m not a victim,
till I let you take me down.
I'm not a target in the sites of your mercy,
I never asked for anything,
I'm not asking now.

Amy gets in the ring by sliding under the bottom rope.

I will not be afraid,
I will not be afraid.

She nips up and goes to the second rope in the corner near the ring steps, and poses for the fans, one arm in the air, the other on her hip.

I’ve done this on my own
and I don’t care what you do to me,
I won't hand over what is mine

Amy hops down and goes to the opposite corner, and does the same pose.

I've done this for too long,
to let you take it away from me,
it's too late to stop me
cause I refuse to die.

Amy gets down and awaits the start of her match as the music fades and the light stop flashing.

 

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine is going to be in tough tonight. Amy Chastaine is someone to look out for in SCW in the very near future. She’s already taken the fight to some of the best.”

 

Knots: “Nearly beat Red Rayne for the Adrenaline Title.”

 

Sharper: “And we can now confirm that she will be teaming with Andrew Raynes at Rise to Greatness against Adrenaline Rush. The winning team will have a World Tag Team Championship shot. Big opportunity for both pairings.”

 

Amy Chastaine looks at Tommy Valentine as the crowd roars a bit. The bell sounds. Tommy then comes out of the corner. Amy Chastaine watches him and Tommy then goes for a hard right, but Chastaine ducks. She then kicks him in the thigh before kicking him in the ribs. She nails him with a forearm before going for another kick. Tommy catches it though. Tommy then throws the leg up and Chastaine back flips out of it. The crowd ohs. Tommy goes for a clothesline, but Amy ducks. Tommy stops and turns around and Chastaine hits a back kick to the ribs. Tommy bends over and Amy then jumps up and hits a front dropkick to the face. Tommy falls over.

 

Sharper: “And Chastaine shows she may be the faster of the two.”

 

Knots: “Tommy maybe just showing that he didn’t do enough scouting. She’s ready.”

 

Tommy starts to get up and Amy clubs him in the back. She then clubs him again and spins him around. She kicks him in the ribs and Tommy falls back to the corner. Amy then steps up and goes to nail him with a hard right and then another, but Tommy shoves her off. Amy rolls through. She gets up and runs back over to Tommy. She nails a couple more shots and Tommy shoves her off again. She gets up and Tommy then runs out and nails her with a clothesline. The crowd cheers a bit. Amy starts to get up and Tommy kicks her in the ribs and hits a snapmare. He then runs into the ropes in front of Amy and dives forward, nailing Amy with a diving clothesline. The crowd cheers.

 

Knots: “Jesus! Take her head off why don’t you.”

 

Sharper: “Hard clothesline, nearly takes her out. It may be it. Cover here.”

 

Tommy goes for the pin.

Chastaine kicks out. Tommy gets up. Chastaine starts to pulls herself up. Tommy grabs him and turns before throwing her into the corner. Tommy then knees her in the ribs. Tommy turns and whips her across the ring. Tommy runs after and Chastaine jumps up and floats over Tommy. She steps back. Tommy then turns around and Chastaine jumps up and snaps him off with a frankensteiner. The crowd roars. Both competitors get up and Chastaine jumps up for a second frankensteiner, but Tommy blocks it and counters with a sitout powerbomb.

Amy gets her shoulder up and rolls over. Tommy then rolls over with her and pulls her up in a gutwrench. He then hoists her up and hits a sitout gutwrench powerbomb. The crowd cheers.

Chastaine kicks out again.

 

Sharper: “Two big powerbombs and Tommy Valentine showing his strength and Chastaine is in a world of pain.”

 

Knots: “Hell, keep doing that. Clear advantage of him!”

 

Chastaine starts to get up and Tommy grabs her. He then grabs her from behind. He goes for a back suplex, but Chastaine back flips through. Tommy runs forward and into the ropes, but Chastaine hits a dropkick to the face. The crowd roars. Chastaine then turns and crawls over to the ropes. She exits to the apron before climbing up to the top rope. Tommy slowly gets up, holding his face. He turns to Chastaine who then dives off with a top rope front dropkick. The crowd cheers. Chastaine then goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Tommy pushes her off. He then slowly starts to get up. Chastaine rolls over and grabs at the ropes. She gets up as Tommy gets to his feet. She runs at him and jumps up and ends up on his shoulders. She then takes him over into a victory roll.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Tommy kicks out again. Both get up and Chastaine turns and goes for a superkick. The crowd ohs, but Tommy catches it and spins her out. She turns to him and Tommy then jumps up and hits a crescent kick, knocking Chastaine down to the mat. The crowd ohs and roars. Tommy then walks around as Chastaine starts to get up.

 

Sharper: “Chastaine knocked down. Countered one kick with one of his own.”

 

Knots: “And Tommy is thinking about something. Sizing her up.”

 

Chastaine gets up and Tommy then jumps up and drops her with the Griever’s Bane. The crowd roars. Tommy turns and hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd cheers. Tommy rolls off and gets up. The referee raises his arm as he looks around. His music plays throughout the arena. Chastaine stirs a bit and Tommy turns and celebrates in the ring. The crowd cheers him as they look on.

 

Sharper: “Well he said he’d make waves. He did tonight with a strong victory over Amy Chastaine.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but now what? He’s always been able to win.”

 

Sharper: “I’m sure he has something on his mind. In previous years, he’s helped with the Scaffold Scramble and other concepts.”

 

Tommy continues to celebrate in the ring as Chastaine stirs and we cut backstage.


We open up backstage to Spirit Dansby standing backstage with Collin Cole.

 

Spirit: “I am here backstage with Collin Cole, and Collin, just moments ago, we got this confirmed from Mr. D himself, you will face Gable Winchester and Chris Cannon at Rise to Greatness weekend for an Adrenaline Championship shot.”

 

Cole just smiles.

 

Cole: “I’ve had a rough 2015. It’s not been my best, but at the same time, I’ve been waiting for my chance to turn it around. Chris Cannon, he may have turned it around tonight. Gable Winchester has been doing well for a while. Rise to Greatness, stakes just got raised. As for me…I won my first Adrenaline Championship at Rise to Greatness a few years ago. I think this year, I earn another opportunity. Sounds like poetic justice to me.”

 

Spirit: “Thank you for your time Collin.”

 

Cole: “Thanks.”

 

“Immortals” then starts to play as the Breakdown logo comes up. We see a shot of CHBK walking down the hallway with Mikaela Street.

 

Sharper: “Thank you Spirit. And when we return, we’re going to hear from CHBK, here on Breakdown!”

 

The scene then slowly fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


We return to Breakdown to see Amy Chastaine in the backstage area with Andrew Raynes. Raynes is trying to cheer Chastaine up.

 

Raynes: “It’s fine. You had a hell of an effort. He’s a former World Champion.”

 

Chastaine: “Yeah, but I need to get over that hump.”

 

We then see Adrenaline Rush who is with Stacy Kissinger. Kissinger heads over. Rayne looks up.

 

Rayne: “Stacy…not now.”

 

Kissinger: “Look, I’m not here to rub anythin’ in her face about tonight. I hope she was watchin’ last week. I’m lookin’ out for them.”

 

Chastaine turns to Kissinger.

 

Chastaine: “No Stacy…I saw someone looking to make sure they’re relevant and you’re using them. I don’t trust ya. But if you’re so good for em, Andrew tells me that we’re facing Adrenaline Rush at Rise to Greatness. We’ve beaten them once. We’ll do it again and get that title shot. But if you’re that good, you may be the difference.”

 

Thomas: “We’re going to be ready for you.”

 

Chastaine: “I don’t doubt it.”

 

Tucker: “Oh God…”

 

Kissinger calms Tyler Tucker down.

 

Kissinger: “Amy…I’ll take that challenge if it gets ya to see my true meanin’.”

 

Kissinger turns and heads off. Thomas looks at Chastaine as Tucker waves weakly and then heads off. Chastaine and Raynes watch them leave as we cut away.


“This is How a Heart Breaks” starts to play. The crowd roars and then boos as we see CHBK walk out from the back with Mikaela Street by his side. He looks around as the boos continue. He just smirks as he walks down towards the ring with Mikaela following him down.

 

Sharper: “Last week, CHBK was teamed with Shilo Valiant against Trinity Street and Lucas Knight, challenging for the World Tag Team Titles and well, this stunning turn of events happened.”

 

Knots: “Yeah…CHBK decided, nope! Not tonight!”

 

BREAKDOWN – LAST WEEK:

Shilo turns and Trinity gets up and Shilo nails her with a clothesline, knocking her over the top rope to the floor. Shilo turns and goes over to Lucas and grabs him, but Lucas nails him in the ribs and then again. Shilo staggers back. Suddenly, CHBK nails Shilo with the Bittersweet Ending. The crowd ohs. The scene cuts again to show Shilo staggering back from another angle and CHBK hitting the Bittersweet Ending again. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

 

Sharper: “CHBK cost himself and Shilo Valiant the World Tag Team Titles and after the match, CHBK made it clear, he didn’t want to team with Shilo. He merely was giving him a receipt!”

 

We return live to see CHBK walking around the ring as Mikaela Street dances a bit and CHBK chuckles. He then is handed a microphone as he looks around the arena. The crowd boos as CHBK just smirks as his music fades out.

 

CHBK: “Wasn’t last week entertaining? Didn’t it put you on the edge of your seat? I know I loved the part when Shilo turned around and got his head taken off by yours truly with a beautifully placed superkick to the jaw. How about you Mikaela?”

 

Mikaela nods and smiles.

 

CHBK: “It’s official…Shilo Valiant was part of entertainment! That work for you?”

 

The crowd boos as CHBK looks around the arena. The camera pans around as the crowd boos CHBK.

 

CHBK: “Well it worked for me. See, I gave you a bit of a reminder that you need to watch your step at times Shilo. I appreciate that you came out a couple of weeks ago when Trinity Street and Lucas Knight, in their continuous murderous rage since they clearly can’t just move on, a death knell in this business, and made it a bit easier for me to move on myself. But I didn’t appreciate you dumping me on my head. And so, I did what any person who grew up wrestling in the era I did would do….and that’s return the favour.”

 

CHBK smirks. The crowd boos.

 

CHBK: “I’m sorry you’re not adding another Tag Title to your illustrious legacy, but the fact of the matter is that while I wouldn’t holding some gold again in SCW before I hang up the boots for good, I’d rather do it with someone that I’ll actually want to spend some time with. Because in fact, that only time I held the World Tag Titles was with on Steve Griffin and I took him out before he could take me out. And Shilo, I’m a bit too old to keep watching my back every twelve seconds. I’d rather just get it out in the open my feelings and hopefully you don’t mind that I get the last laugh…”

 

CHBK smirks.

 

CHBK: “I know that’s one of your schticks…literally…but Shilo, it’s over. You brought some entertainment to SCW. A martyr to the cause. Now…if you’ve still got your problem with Monarchy, that’s fine. Go for it. Play your games. Have your spotlight. That’s fine. But Shilo, thank you for letting me finally give you some use.”

 

“NECRO!”

 

The crowd roars. CHBK just looks out and brings his microphone down, shaking his head. He starts to slowly look around as Mikaela does the same. We then hear some laughing as the crowd cheers too. The lights then go out. The crowd roars as the lights remain out for just a moment longer and we then see the spotlight shine down on the ring and we see CHBK looking out to the crowd before turning around and seeing Shilo Valiant standing in the middle of the ring. Notably he doesn’t have a microphone in his hand, and instead has a headset microphone. Mikaela backs up a bit as CHBK looks at Shilo. Shilo just laughs a bit.

 

Shilo: “Oh Heartbreak…you’re getting lazy in your old age. The Master of Mind Games with a superkick and costing me a title…a bit pedestrian for you. But then again, you’ve not been a master in a while. You’ve been hanging on by a thread.”

 

Shilo then mimicks holding a thread and it swinging before he then holds out two fingers and acts like he’s cutting it.

 

Shilo: “Well I’m here to cut it!”

 

The crowd roars. CHBK just watches Shilo Valiant.

 

Shilo: “Because see, my issue was never with Monarchy…even though I wish they would try a different emotion than anger….no, just as Hoobastank sang last time you were Tag Champ, the reason is you, CHBK!”

 

The crowd roars. Shilo just smiles.

 

Shilo: “Because CHBK, your act is getting stale and frankly, I think I need to inject some life into it and so CHBK, this is not over. You’ve not gotten the last laugh and the curtain hasn’t even been called. All that’s happened right now…you got your receipt, but I’ve come for a refund. And CHBK, I always collect, especially at Rise to Greatness.”

 

CHBK: “Shilo…I don’t think you realize something here. I’ve been around from the start. I’ve been at every Rise to Greatness. Frankly, I figured it’s time for me to step back and watch the future. And I call the shots. Not only do I have my lovely veto, I have my Trios Contract and frankly Shilo…”

 

Shilo: “Hold it, hold it, hold it….I had something prepared for this….can the people in the truck play it for me….”

 

CHBK looks confused as Shilo smiles. A few moments pass and we then hear CHBK’s voice over the speakers.

 

CHBK: “I have my veto. I don’t have to face and frankly, I don’t feel like it.”

 

The crowd boos as CHBK just looks at Shilo.

 

CHBK: “What’s your point?”

 

Shilo smiles.

 

Shilo: “The once great CHBK is a broken record. Just replaying the same hits from last year, the year before and the nineties, eighties and God knows what else. You are the equivalent of an Oldies station. Nothing new and that I can’t just let stand. So, Heartbreak, I hate to break your heart, but it’s not over. And you can use your veto clause, but I will entertain.”

 

Shilo smiles.

 

Shilo: “And the spotlight is quickly leaving you…”

 

The spotlight then starts to dim before focusing only on Shilo, leaving CHBK in darkness.

 

Shilo: “Necro!”

 

Shilo chuckles as CHBK then goes for a hard right, but Shilo blocks it. CHBK then spins out and drops down to the floor. Mikaela exits too. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “CHBK tried for a sucker punch! Shilo was ready!”

 

Knots: “Come on! This is blatant disrespect of a legend. He’s not an Oldies station. He’s one of the best.”

 

Sharper: “But at some point, the world moves on.”

 

Shilo just smiles as he turns and looks at CHBK. CHBK storms around the ring and over to the end of the entrance ramp. Mikaela follows him as CHBK storms to the back. Shilo continues to stand in the ring as “Sin with a Grin” plays.


We then cut backstage to see Dylan Howell pacing backstage with Marisa Condolesa. The crowd boos seeing him.

 

Condolesa: “I’m here with Dylan Howell and Dylan, you asked for some time to speak-“

 

Howell: “Yeah, I did. Tonight, is one of the biggest BS nights I’ve ever seen. Collin Cole, Gable Winchester and Chris Cannon get a shot at an Adrenaline Title shot over me. Is that really legit? Come on….We’ve got two asswipes in the main event. We’ve got three of Donovan Kayl’s snot-nosed pricks, who probably can’t even walk without help, getting a match at Rise to Greatness. What the hell kind of ship is Mr. D running…

 

Howell shakes his head.

 

Howell: “Well you know what, I’m going to make sure something is righted here. This little Youth Movement, I’m going to teach them what wrestling really is by kicking their ass and beating the hell out of them and ending their hopes for stardom before they start. And if they have a problem, I dare them to come out here next week and call me out. I may just make it so they don’t even get the shot. I’m sick of this and I’m going to start napalming my way to what I want!”

 

The crowd boos as Dylan Howell storms off. Marisa Condolesa watches him walk off.

 

Knots: “Testify, brother!”


“Immortals” starts to play as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Jake Starr before a shot of Selena Frost. We then see both.

 

Sharper: “Dylan Howell mentioned it. Jake Starr faces Selena Frost in our main event, and it’s next! Don’t go anywhere!”

 

The scene then fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


Jake Starr vs. Selena Frost

 

"BELIEVE IT!"

At the sound of the familiar call, the true-believers are immediately on their feet in cheers as "What I Believe" by Skillet brings forth a barrage purple-blue lights in the design of snowflakes across the arena. From the back, out walks The Snow Queen, herself, Selena Frost. With a twirl amongst the lights and snowflakes, Frost slowly strolls down the ramp, her platinum-white hair in a long-braid swishing this way and that.

Looking around the arena, Selena smiles at the voice of her true-believers before sliding into the ring. Inside, the Winter Diamond is quickly on her feet, stepping into the center of the ring as all the snowflake-lights rush to form a large blue-white snowflake-shaped light over Selena. Raising her arms, the Defier of Worlds looks up at the lights before they return to normal.

 

Sharper: “Selena Frost about to do battle with Jake Starr in our main event here tonight in Detroit. But you know Rise to Greatness has to be on her mind.”

 

Knots: “Only eighteen days before she’s going to be a bald little snowball. A bloody bald little snowball if Dawn Lohan gets her way.”

 

The arena lights slowly fade to black, and the sharp opening chords of "This Fire" by Killswitch Engage boom through the speaker system. The skull of the Social Misfits begins to flicker on the jumbotron like a strobe light, and the spotlights do the same, as one ultimately focuses its beam right on the entrance right as the first scream echoes. As the words of the first verse begin to play, Jake Starr slowly emerges from the locker room, carrying his chair in his right hand.

After looking over the torn crowd with a callous and cocky smirk on his face, he slowly unfolds the battered piece of steel and sets it down in front of himself, ultimately straddling it and leaning forward. The reaction from the crowd is more negative than it has ever been in his career, and he almost thrives on the negative energy pouring in his direction. As the crowd gets louder, trying to rattle him, and in very few cases, support him, his smile grows more and more, showing a sense of arrogance growing by the moment. He slowly leans back, extending his arms to the side, and making a motion for the crowd to give it to him the best way they can, and the crowd responds by cheering and jeering as loud as they can.

As the chorus ends, Jake springs up and grabs the chair. He begin walking toward the ring, and Jake folds the chair back up.

This is the broken ground
Misery begins to rise.
Turn away from yesterday,
tomorrow's in my eyes.

Nevermore to be held down
by the wings of history.
Nevermore to be cast aside,
this day is mine.

After he reaches ringside, Jake climbs the stairs. Getting on the ring apron, he ascends to the second turnbuckle, and takes in the crowd reactions to each side, smirking again. He then jumps into the ring, grabbing the chair with both hands, and slamming it hard right into the middle of the ring. He then looks camera side, placing his left foot on the bottom rope, right foot on the middle, bracing himself with his left hand, and holding the chair above his head, and mouthing the words, "THIS IS MY TIME!" Jake then bounces himself up and turns back to the ring.

 

Sharper: “We saw Jake earlier tonight when he went after James Evans. James Evans I’m sure is watching.”

 

Knots: “Merrick Wiseman too. He’s got it in for Starr and Evans. And I’m fine with that.”

 

Jake then turns around and goes to nail Selena with the chair, but she suddenly jumps up and hits a spinning heel kick into the chair, knocking it back into Jake’s face. Jake falls back, dropping the chair as it bounces off the apron and to the ropes. The crowd roars. The referee turns and pushes the chair out of the ring. Selena looks at Jake as Jake stumbles up to the corner and Selena runs over and jumps up and hits a huge running dropkick to the jaw of Jake. Jake falls over and drops down to the floor as the referee calls for the bell starting the match. The crowd roars as Jake rolls over to the floor.

 

Sharper: “The match has started. Jake already on the floor as his attack failed!”

 

Knots: “He tried to catch her offguard. She was ready! And the ref…he’s not in the ring!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t think Starr has made friends with the officials as of late!”

 

Jake stirs. (1) Selena then watches him as she actually remains in the ring. Starr slowly pulls himself up by the announce table and staggers back. (2) He shakes off the dropkick and looks at Selena before rolling into the ring. He gets up and Selena moves in and feigns a forearm shot, but then kicks him in the ribs. She then jumps up and hits a kick to the chest and then jumps up and hits another dropkick. Starr hits the mat. Selena goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Starr kicks out. He rolls over and Selena gets up. She stomps him in the back and then again and again. Starr rolls to the ropes. Selena then stomps him again. The referee backs her up as Starr grabs at the ropes.

 

Sharper: “Selena all over Starr. Aggressive in this one. She may be showing something to Dawn.”

 

Knots: “Or just knows that Starr will do anything to win.”

 

Selena backs up and walks around before Starr gets up. Selena moves back in and Starr thumbs her in the eye. Selena staggers back. The crowd boos as Starr then nails her with a diving clothesline to the back. Selena falls over. Starr then mounts her back and nails her with a series of hard right hands to the back of Selena Frost’s head. The crowd boos some more. Starr then gets up and walks around the ring. He holds his jaw and winces a bit. Selena starts to slowly get up and Starr runs over and stomps her in the back of the head. She falls down to the mat. The crowd boos some more.

 

Sharper: “A vicious stomp. Starr showing his anger.”

 

Knots: “Well he’s always angry.”

 

Starr then grabs Selena and lifts her up before throwing her over and into the corner. Starr then nails her with a back elbow and then another before backing up and sizing her up and then kicking her in the ribs. He pulls her out and hits a short-arm clothesline. Selena hits the mat. Starr goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Selena kicks out. She rolls over and Starr gets up. Selena starts to pull herself up and Starr grabs her and forearms her in the back. Starr then spins her around and pushes her to the ropes before then whipping her across. Selena bounces off the ropes and Starr goes to clothesline her, but Selena ducks underneath. She bounces off the other side and Starr turns and Selena jumps up and goes for a crossbody. Starr goes down.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Starr kicks out. Both get up and Starr hits a dropkick to Selena. The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Dropkick to the jaw. Stops any hope for Selena turning it around there.”

 

Knots: “Caught her right in the jaw.”

 

Sharper: “And now Starr heading to the corner. Only bad things on his mind.”

 

Starr exits to the apron and climbs up to the top rope. Selena starts to get up and shakes off the impact and gets up to her feet only for Starr to dive off and club her in the back with a double axe handle smash. Selena falls to the mat. Starr then rolls her over and hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Selena kicks out again. Starr gets up and drags her up. Starr then hits a vertical suplex. Selena winces. Starr gets up and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and hits an elbow drop. He goes for another pin.

Selena kicks out again. Starr gets up as Selena stirs. Starr drags him up. Starr then turns and whips her into the corner. Starr runs after her, but Selena gets her boot up. Starr staggers back. Selena then climbs up to the top rope and dives back with a moonsault into Starr. The crowd roars. She rolls through.

 

Sharper: “Moonsault takes down Starr. Selena now has an opening. She needs to act here.”

 

Knots: “Starr’s probably already thinking of a counter though.”

 

Starr starts to get up and Selena turns and runs over and hits a spinning heel kick, knocking him down. Starr slowly starts to get up and Selena then runs up behind him and grabs his head before jumping over the top rope and hanging him up, throat first on the top rope. Selena lands on the floor as Starr falls back, holding his throat. Selena then climbs up to the apron and looks around. She climbs up to the top rope. She looks at Starr and dives off and hits a top rope splash. She goes for the pin.

Starr pushes her off. The crowd sighs. Selena starts to get up and walks around. Starr starts to get up. Selena grabs him and kicks him in the ribs. She spins him into the corner. Selena then goes to whip him across, but Starr spins through and sends Selena in. Selena tries to counter as she jumps up to float over as Starr runs in, but Starr stops and turns, catching her before swinging her into a sitout Alabama slam. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Oh! What impact!

 

Knots: “That’s that!”

 

Sharper: “And right into a pin!”

 

1!

 

2!

 

Selena shoots her shoulder up. The crowd roars. Starr looks out and shoves Selena back as he looks up at the official. Starr gets up and gets into his face. The official reminds him who is in charge and Starr turns to Selena and grabs her before clubbing her in the back. He clubs her again before then whipping her into the ropes. She bounces off and Starr goes for a clothesline. Selena ducks and stops. Starr turns and Selena grabs his arm and wrenches it before hitting the Paydirt. The crowd ohs. Starr falls back to the mat. Selena rolls over and goes to the ropes. She then slowly starts to get up. We then see Dawn Lohan making her way from the back.

 

Sharper: “Selena Frost getting up after taking down Starr with the Paydirt.”

 

Knots: “We have company!”

 

Sharper: “I thought she wanted to be done with Selena, or is she looking to take her out before Rise to Greatness, that restraining order be damned!”

 

Dawn Lohan runs down to the ring and slides into the ring. She gets up and Selena moves over to her and Dawn nails her with a hard right and Selena fires back. They trade blows in the ring as the crowd roars. The bell sounds. Selena and Dawn get a few more shots on one another, going back and forth until Selena manages to kick her in the ribs and throws her to the floor. Selena drops down and rolls to the floor only for Dawn to spear her back into the barricade. Dawn gets up and forearms her hard and then again before trying to tackle her over the barricade. Both go up and over. Starr starts to get up and looks around, clearly unsure of what is going. He then gets to his feet when we suddenly see James Evans run out from the back with a steel chair.

 

Sharper: “Dawn Lohan takes Selena Frost over the barricade. They’re in the crowd!”

 

Knots: “Evans! James Evans is coming with a gift for Starr!”

 

Sharper: “And Starr still doesn’t know what the hell is going on! I don’t even know if he knows the match is over!”

 

Starr starts to get up as James Evans slides into the ring. We see Selena nail Dawn as Dawn staggers into the crowd. Selena follows as Starr turns around and James Evans nails him in the knees with the steel chair. The crowd ohs. Starr falls to the mat. James then lifts the chair up and slams it into Jake’s back. We cut back to Selena and Dawn to see Selena nailing Dawn again before Dawn reaches out and starts trying to choke Selena.

 

Sharper: “James Evans takes down Starr’s knees!”

 

Knots: “And Dawn I think is trying to take out Selena! She’s choking him!”

 

Sharper: “Things have broken down here in Detroit!”

 

James Evans then nails Starr again. James yells at Starr as the crowd roars again.

 

James: “Jake…you’re not gonna be a factor. Last week was the warning. Tonight…I’m just gonna end ya now!”

 

James Evans goes to lift the chair up as we then see Tommy Valentine running out from the back and sliding into the ring. He grabs James by the arm and spins him around before hitting him with the Griever’s Bane! The crowd roars and cheers. Starr rolls over, holding his back in pain.

 

Sharper: “Valentine! Tommy Valentine out here! Why the hell did he just take out James Evans?!”

 

Knots: “What the hell kind of wave was that?! James Evans was going to do the wrestling equivalent to curing cancer!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know…Maybe this is for Helms?”

 

Jake Starr rolls over still in pain as James Evans rolls to his back. Tommy Valentine just looks at him as Jake Starr continues to writhe in pain. The crowd cheers Tommy as many still watch as Selena and Dawn trade blows in the crowd. We show them again as Selena nails Dawn a few more times as security tries to separate them. Tommy remains in the ring, looking at James Evans before shaking his head and then backing off. He then looks at Jake Starr before scoffing a him and dropping to the ground. The scene slowly fades to black…
