Breakdown - June 25, 2014

DARK MATCHES:

Fury defeats Wally Rosefall via submission

David Helms defeats Aaron D’Aubergine via roll-up pinfall

“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

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

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

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

MAIN SHOW:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

We then open up to see a shot of the outside of the Toyota Center. We see fans walking up to the arena as several fans walk past the SCW camera, cheering into it before walking past.

Dawson: “From the site of Breakdown, there’s no problem tonight. It’s Houston, it’s Texas. And SCW is going to heat it up tonight!”

The scene then cuts to show a shot of the inside of the Toyota Center seeing fans cheering and getting hyped up.

Dawson: “There you see all of the fans ready for tonight’s huge event. And you see one interesting addition…that steel cage…”

We see a steel cage hanging over the ring. The camera focuses on that before we pan out from the big screen in the Supreme Studios in Toronto. We then pan back to show Jim Dawson, Dean Black and Jay Gold.

Dawson: “Welcome as we come inside to the Supreme Studios here in Toronto. Jim Dawson here, Dean Black and joining us this week, Jay Gold.”

Gold: “Thanks for having me.”

Dawson: “Things have been heating up and tonight, it looks like some more big things are coming. There’s a steel cage hanging above the ring and from the card we have in front of us, there are no cage matches scheduled.”

Black: “Did someone ask for it to be here to make a point? Is this perhaps something for a message by Merrick Wiseman to Ravyn Taylor or Jake Starr? Supreme Saturday this Sunday. Maybe something there.”

Gold: “Or maybe it’s just something for Silas World? Maybe there is something there. Maybe Mr. D does have something planned. Remember, Silas World was going to go after Jake Starr last week. They said they’d go after Syren this week. Maybe this is Mr. D preventing something big from happening and keeping that main event safe.”

Dawson: “Quite possibly. Both situation plausible. We’re going to look more at Supreme Saturday later on in the intermission. But one thing is for sure, there is a cage and someone is going to be inside it tonight. Who, how, why? We’ll find out to say the least.”

We then see a shot of Kelcey Wallace vs. Rachel Foxx on the big screen behind the panel.

Dawson: “But what we do know will happen is a huge main event. Rachel Foxx will face off against Kelcey Wallace. The Coalition is back in full force. Rachel Frost was reinstated last week. You have to believe the Coalition is going to do something big. They’re going to make their plans known. And Silas Mason, he’s been openly critical of the Coalition and Frost when she was attacking people. She targeted Kelcey at some point. We could see a war later tonight.”

Black: “And if I’m Silas Mason, I start thinking about how I can avoid that. You want to keep it in the ring. You want to keep Kelcey safe.”

Gold: “But the big thing…that one on one streak is on the line too. Rachel Foxx has a hell of an opportunity to give her her first singles pinfall or submission defeat. “

Black: “Or do they just want to make the impact? Either way, Silas is not going to just let Kelcey go out there alone. That may be a very tense situation.”

Dawson: “Silas World will be busy tonight too. We’re going to see Angelica Jones and Brittany Lohan facing Tommy Valentine and Simon Lyman, stemming from their attempted attack on Tommy Valentine and Simon’s save two weeks ago. Adrenaline Champion against Women’s Champion, Selena Frost against Autumn Valentine, non-title. Some great matches tonight in Houston. A big night to say the least.”

Gold: “And that’s not all. Some big announcements. New Hall of Fame member.”

Black: “The Class of 2014 will begin to be named tonight. A huge honour will be bestowed upon someone.”

Dawson: “That will be the case. We’re ready to go live to Houston. The Toyota Center. Breakdown….here’s Adam…here’s Shawn! Gentlemen?”

We then cut to a shot inside the Toyota Center as the crowd can be heard cheering. We see the cage hanging over the ring as we cut to ringside to see Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at the announce table.

Sharper: “Thank you Jim. Tonight, Silas World has a big night to make a splash and show their dominance in that ring. Two huge matches against some big thorns in their side. Angelica Jones and Brittany Lohan will look to teach Tommy Valentine and Simon Lyman a lesson as both teams team for the first time in SCW and Kelcey Wallace will put perfection on the line against Rachel Foxx.”

Winters: “Tonight’s a night groups like Silas’ dream of. You can turn all the doubters away. But there are a lot of people that will be watching. Starr and Syren. Shaun Cruze. And let’s not forget the Coalition who is back in full force.”

Sharper: “I’m sure we’ll hear from them later. Along with that, Supreme Saturday: Rampage on the Riverwalk will be this Saturday. US Title on the line then. Just announced earlier this week, Shaun Cruze will face Syren. And much, much more. Messages will be sent and as mentioned, there’s a cage over the ring and we haven’t a clue why it’s there?!”

Winters: “I always hate when cages magically appear. Someone has arranged for it to be here and they’ve told no one why!

“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.

Sinfully Seductive

Dark Fantasy

She points at the ring, leaning in to the camera again and smiling.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.

Sharper: “Syren making her way out here to start this show here in Houston.”

Winters: “Last time she changed Rise to Greatness in a big way. Tonight, you know she has something to say.”

Sharper: “Syren about to grab a microphone. Huge main event at Rise to Greatness. Starr, Syren, Wallace and Cruze. World Title on the line.”

Syren turns and heads to the corner and is handed a microphone. The music fades out as the crowd cheers a bit. Syren looks around as the crowd roars.

Syren: “I guess I need to get ready to get my ass kicked, huh?”

Syren looks around as the crowd gives a mixed reaction.

Syren: “I remember hearing something last week about how Silas and his little group of talent was going to come after me. Well, after they went after Starr, I knew I had to do something about it and let’s just say, Silas…you didn’t quite do what you hoped. Starr is still standing…and this week…I plan to be standing by the end of it all!”

Syren looks around as the crowd cheers.

Syren: “Sorry, but I’ve heard it too many times. People are going to take me out. It’s almost old. I’m ready to take you on and I’m ready to deal with whatever you want to throw at me…same for Shaun Cruze. I used my Trios shot not because it was a cool thing to do, but because I saw an opportunity to not only be in the main event for Rise to Greatness, but be a part of a hell of a match seeing the four best. But you seem to have a problem with that…Silas…and wait…Cruze too!”

Syren smirks.

Syren: “I thought you wanted the challenge. Well you’re all getting it. Bring it on. Try to take me out. I’m ready for it. I’m looking forward to it. I want to see what you try to do to take me out! Come on Silas! Cruze! Whoever! Let’s see what you can do!”

Syren looks around. She goes to continue to speak only to be cut off by “Uprising” by Muse. The crowd cheers as Syren smirks and the cameras turn to the entrance way as Jake Starr walks out from the back.

Sharper: “Looks like Jake Starr has something to add!”

Winters: “Of course he does. He always does!”

Sharper: “And Syren’s smirking. It’s almost like she was expecting this!”

Jake Starr looks at Syren and starts to head down to the ring. The crowd continues to cheer him as Jake reaches the ring and hops onto the apron. He enters the ring as Syren looks at Jake. Jake just nods before walking across the ring. He’s handed a microphone and turns before looking at Syren. Syren just looks at Jake.

Syren: “Why hello Jake. I guess we see ourselves on a similar side again.”

Starr: “You’d think that we both were on the same team in the Trios thingy or something?”

The crowd cheers a bit. Syren just smirks.

Starr: “But I think I got the gist of what you were saying. Apparently, though, Shaun Cruze, Kelcey Wallace, Silas Mason, and all of his sheep all have a problem with me too! And apparently last week, they tried to take me out. And if I remember correctly, they said something about taking you out. Well, I don’t know about you. But I don’t have plans on going anywhere.”

Syren: “Neither do I.”

Starr: “And well, that’s why I’m out here. I figure that right now, Silas Mason and all of the sheep are in the Fortress of Soltitude, otherwise known as his van down by the river, plotting to take us out. And I don’t care what the hell they say, you and I know damn well we not only EARNED those Trios Contracts, but we deserve to be here.”

Syren: “Right with you.”

Starr: “So then, if Cruze and Silas want to get rid of us, I think it’s only fair that they have to go through both of us.”

Syren smiles.

Syren: “You know. I think I can live with that.”

Starr: “Good. And in that case, I owe you a thank you.”

Winters: “This is just weird. They’re actually talking. They’re actually being civil.”

Sharper: “These two have a long history. Jake Starr and Syren used to be huge rivals. A lot has changed.”

Starr extends his hand. Syren looks at it and the two shake hands.

Syren: “The funny thing is…this year, we’ve been standing on the same side of things an awful lot and it looks like we’re going to be here again. So Jake, how about this. A personal truce between you and I. Hell, we probably shouldn’t trust each other, but I know you know how much I want this…the same with you knowing how much I want this. Let’s make it so if they want to get rid of us, there’s no divide and conquer. We’re on the same side until that bell rings at Rise to Greatness.”

Starr just smirks.

Starr: “Even when I win the US championship from your wife and Opie himself?”

The crowd roars a bit.

Syren: “She’s got her own plans. I’ve got mine. And I think I like the idea right now of taking a page out of her book…and making Cruze and Silas a bit more bald.”

Starr: “Sounds good to me. Let the games begin.”

The two shake hands again. Syren then smiles as Starr backs up. “Groupie” starts to play as Jake Starr turns and exits the ring. Syren just watches him leave.

Sharper: “Syren and Starr making a truce. Forging a pact here to stand against whatever Shaun Cruze and Silas Mason may plan if anything.”

Winters: “Are you telling me that they’re going to trust each other? I know they both have blonde hair, but come on!”

Sharper: “And just think, we’re just getting started. Who knows what they’re planning. And this Saturday, at Supreme Saturday, Cruze will face off against Syren. I guess Jake Starr’s going to be watching-“

Winters: “If he gets through Ravyn and Wiseman? Come on!”

Syren watches as Starr walks to the back with a smirk on his face. Syren just smirks herself as she watches Starr leave and we then cut to commercial.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up backstage to see Silas Mason shaking his head and laughing a bit as the camera pans around to show the entirety of Silas’ World around. Kelcey Wallace can be seen as Silas just turns to her.

Silas: “Hardly something to worry about. They’ll not be an issue to say the least.”

Kelcey: “I’m not worried about them Silas. Let them come. I’ll gladly welcome the challenge.”

Taylor Chase-Cruze then comes into view.

Taylor: “Please. You don’t need to put up with that. You had your rightful shot and they muscled in. Now, we’re going to force them out. Right?”

Silas: “Exactly…and all will be good. Even had a bit of a meeting with Shaun…he agrees. And we’re gonna do what we need ta…to get rid of Jake Starr and Syren and make sure it’s Cruze and my babydoll at Rise to Greatness.”

Silas smiles as the crowd can be heard booing. The door then opens as Chris Cannon walks into the room. Kelcey looks a bit surprised. Harmony is noticed too.

Harmony: “Chris? You’re allowed in?”

Cannon: “Yeah…no issues at all.”

Silas: “Aint that interestin’.”

Cannon: “Got a match too…so what are we up to?”

Cannon steps through as Kelcey smiles a bit and we cut to the ring.

Soopaman Luva vs. Alec Jacobs vs. Finnegan Piper

The lights go out as "Still Ballin'" by Tupac ft. Trick Daddy hits the PA system."

At the start of that first verse the Soopaman Luva walks out from backstage as the lights turn on wearing a black du-rag with a black hat turned backwards on top of it, a fresh "#1 Derrick Rose Chicago Bulls" white basketball jersey with red letters, and blue jean shrts. This leads to some boos from the crowd. He then walks down still waving his hands up until he sees a random sexy looking chick in the ground and walks over and asks for her number,

He pulls out a pen out his pocket and writes the number on his hand. He then gives a girl a kiss and then chucks the pen somewhere to the floor and walks towards the ring and slides under the bottom rope. He jumps onto the top turnbuckle and continues to wave his hands to pump the crowd up as they continue to boo him. He then hops down and takes off his jersey before throwing it into the audience, who promptly throw it back and get ready for the match as the rest of the song plays out.

Sharper: “This crowd not fans of Soopaman Luva. We’re in Rockets country here.”

Winters: “Home of the Houston Rockets…so overblown losers, but whatever! Soopaman Luva is gonna try and have some fun here.”

Sharper: “Should be an interesting match of different styles here. Soopaman Luva being a bit more of a brawler with some high-flying, Jacobs is all power and Finnegan Piper is as unorthodox as they come.”

"Demons" by Imagine Dragons begins to play throughout the arena as Alec Jacobs slowly walks out into the stage. He looks out at the crowd for a moment before he throws his right fist into the air for a moment, then brings it down and puts it behind his back as he leans forward a bit and throws his left fist up now. He holds this pose for a moment before he starts slowly making his way down to the ring. About halfway down the ramp, he suddenly breaks into a sprint for the rest of the way before sliding into the ring where he rises to a stand. He takes one last look at the crowd around him before he raises his right fist high one more time before slamming it into the mat as he drops to one knee, the usual signal for his Superman Punch.

Sharper: “Jacobs has to be getting frustrated. Heading into Rise to Greatness and he is still struggling to get onto the winning side of things.”

Winters: “Welcome to the big leagues. I don’t care how much potential you have. You have to get it done in that ring and right now, Jacobs hasn’t gotten it done.”

Sharper: “But he’s got a whole bunch of potential.”

Winters: “What did I just say?!”

The slow, ominous chords of ‘Prayer’ by Hayley Westenra start to fill the arena. The SCW fans quiet down as the lights slowly dim as a few white lights remain. While the song begins, the lights pick up a hooded man walking through the audience. He does not shake hands or high five them. He just walks on a mission, hopping the retaining wall. The security guards converge on him until he looks up slowly to them and removes his hood, the camera picking up the face of Finnegan Piper. The guards step away from him as he watches, his eyes intense. When they are far enough away, Piper looks to the ring, walking up the stairs, taking off his coat and hoodie, leaving them on the stairs. The camera picks up the demon face tattoo on his back, even in the darkness. The white lights, meanwhile continue to circle the arena as Piper makes his way to the middle of the ring, the lights suddenly converging on him as he stops. He holds up his hands symbolizing the crown and awaits the start of match as the music dies down.

Sharper: “Finnegan Piper got the job done last week. Big singles debut for him. He’s been impressive in the battle royal. Then last week against Sammy Thomas Davies. Tonight, he’s got a bigger challenge.”

Winters: “Yeah. He has to get past two people and two very motivated people. Biggest time of the year. Now is when you step up looking to make a splash.”

The bell sounds and Luva runs over and nails Jacobs with a hard right, knocking him down. The crowd ohs and Luva turns and Finnegan ducks a hard right attempt on him. Luva turns as Piper runs into the ropes and jumps to the middle rope and goes for a springboard kick to the head. Luva ducks and Piper stops. Luva kicks him in the ribs and nails him with a hard right and then another and another. He pushes Piper into the ropes before firing him across the ring. Piper bounces off and Luva jumps up and hits him with a jumping back elbow. He gets up and Jacobs nails him with a clothesline. He goes for the pin on Luva.

Luva kicks out. He starts to get up and Jacobs clubs him in the back. He then whips him into the corner. Jacobs runs after him and Luva hits a back elbow. Jacobs turns around and stumbles forward and Piper jumps up and hits a front dropkick, knocking Jacobs down.

Sharper: “Jacobs stopped before he can even get going.”

Winters: “Take the shots you can and Piper did just that. Dropkick to the jaw. Alec Jacobs is rolling around in pain and we’re back to two on their feet.”

Luva goes to nail Piper, but Piper ducks. Luva stops and Piper hits a back kick. He turns and runs into the ropes. Luva lowers his head and Piper jumps up and backflips down his back. Luva turns and Finnegan grabs him and hits a jawbreaker before backing up and then hitting a dropsault. Luva falls back and through the ropes to the floor. Piper gets up and Jacobs nails him with a running knee lift. He then goes for the pin.

Piper kicks out. Both men get up. Jacobs kicks Piper in the ribs. He then scoops him up and slams him down. Piper starts to pull himself back up and Jacobs then fires him into the ropes. Piper bounces off and Jacobs takes him down with a Samoan drop. He then goes for the pin.

Piper kicks out again. Luva starts to get onto the apron.

Sharper: “Nearfall for Jacobs on Piper. Not enough for the three though and here comes Luva.”

Winters: “Good opportunity for Jacobs for the win, just didn’t do enough to get it. Now he has to deal with Luva and eyes in the back of his head.”

Jacobs turns and nails Luva with a hard right. He then nails him again before hooking him up. He spins him into the ring and hits a sitout suplex slam. He then leans forward for the pin.

Piper breaks it up with a boot. Jacobs falls back and both Luva and Jacobs roll over and get up. They turn to each other and Piper turns and runs up the turnbuckle before turning around and hitting a corkscrew moonsault onto both. The crowd roars. Piper rolls through and gets up before running into the ropes and jumping up and hitting a leg drop to Luva. He goes for the pin.

Luva pushes him off. Piper turns and grabs Jacob. He lifts him up and nails him with a forearm shot and then another. He fires him across the ring and then runs after him before jumping to his chest and backflipping back. He then jumps up and hits an enziguri kick. The crowd cheers. Jacobs falls to the mat. Piper then gets up and Luva jumps up and hurricanranas him over and into a pin.

Piper kicks out.

Sharper: “How close! Big hurricanrana, but not enough.”

Winters: “Nicely done. Got him from behind too. Piper didn’t have a chance to think about it.”

Piper gets up and Luva gets up and nails him with a shot to the ribs. He then hits a European uppercut. Luva then grabs his head and hits a bulldog. Jacobs however starts to get up and Luva turns and runs at him, but Jacobs scoops him up and turns before hitting a snake eyes. Luva stumbles back and Jacobs comes up from behind and hits a bulldog. The crowd cheers and Jacobs goes for the pin.

Luva kicks out. Jacobs looks up and turns before grabbing not Luva, but Piper. He then turns and goes to throw him out, but Piper extends his arms, hits the top rope and bounces back. Jacobs turns and Piper jumps up, hits a roundhouse kick to the head. Jacobs turns and Piper spikes him with the Formula HJ7. The crowd ohs. Piper gets up as Luva starts to get back up. Piper walks over and kicks him in the ribs.

Sharper: “Piper in control now. He’s rising to this challenge well.”

Winters: “Well that’s saying something. No one has been able to really keep it going except for a brief period. Triple Threat matches are always a pain. And just think, the World Title will be in a fourway at Rise to Greatness. That’s going to be nuts.”

Piper kicks Luva in the ribs again and turns before throwing him towards the ropes. Luva spins through and goes to the apron. Piper runs over and Luva blocks it a hard right and nails Piper with a hard right. Luva then turns and runs up the corner to the top rope. He then dives off and hits a crossbody onto Piper.

Piper kicks out. Luva gets up and grabs Piper and throws him into the corner. Just then, Jacobs leans in and spears Luva in the ribs. Jacobs hoists him up and then lifts him up and hits a release northern lights, throwing Luva up and over to the floor. Jacobs then turns as Finnegan runs forward and hits the Finnegan’s Wake. Jacobs falls back and Piper rolls through.

The crowd roars and Luva climbs back up and looks at the ring. Piper gets up and has his arm raised before he backs up and drops down to the floor. He rolls to the floor and then walks over to the barricade and hops over it and back into the crowd. He then slowly makes his exit.

Sharper: “And just like that, another win for Piper!”

Winters: “Just nailed Jacobs right under the chin. Jacobs just had no chance and this match was his.”

Sharper: “And just like that, Piper turns it around. Even Luva is shocked. On the floor for just a moment, but that was all it took. And Piper remains undefeated in SCW.”

Jacobs rolls over, holding his jaw as Luva pulls himself to the apron and looks out.

“Rescue Me” starts to play. The crowd roars as the Breakdown logo comes up. We then see a shot of Selena Frost before a shot of Autumn Valentine.

Sharper: “Big match about to come up.”

Winters: “Adrenaline and Tag Champion against Women’s Champion! Two champions going at it!”

Sharper: “Non-title, but a lot of bragging rights. And that match, it’s when we return!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up as we see Marisa Condolesa backstage at the SCW interview area.

Condolesa: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Please, at this time, welcome…James Evans!”

The crowd roars. James Evans comes into view, looking less than thrilled.

Condolesa: “James, last week on this program, you were confronted by Ryan Moss, Matt Auclair’s advisor and attacked from behind too-“

James: “His advisor…someone not even on the roster. See, a lot has changed since I was last around. One thing definitely has for me…and I realize I don’t need another slimy bastard to try and guide me. Ryan Moss wanted apparently another client. He didn’t like my answer and showed how much of a coward he is. And now, I show up here tonight, and I find out that Matt Auclair isn’t here. Ryan Moss isn’t here. Neither are. They weren’t even scheduled to show up.”

James scoffs.

James: “Our Underground Champion can’t even bother to show up to the shows anymore. Well, how about I give him a reason. Ryan, you too. I’m going to take what I want and this Saturday, we have a little shot in San Antonio. You like to fight. So do I. Moss…you too. Let’s see if how much of a yellow streak you have running down your back…because school’s out bitches and I’m going to remind you why I’m dangerous as hell when I’m pissed right off!”

James looks right at the camera before turning and walking off. The crowd cheers as we then cut to ringside.

Autumn Valentine vs. Selena Frost

"YOU BETTER BELIEVE!"

"The Ice Queen Instrumental" by Within Temptation brings forth a falling of snow along the ramp, while purple-blue lights in the design of snowflakes stream across the arena. From the falling of white, from the back, out walks The Ice Queen, herself, Selena Frost. The SCW World Tag Team and Adrenaline Championship are over her shoulders. With a twirl within her "winter-wonderland", Frost slowly strolls down the ramp, her silver-white hair in a long-braid swishing this way and that. Sliding into the ring, the Winter Diamond is quickly on her feet, stepping into the center of the ring as all the snowflake-lights rush to the center of the ring to form a large blue-white snowflake-shaped light over Selena. Raising her arms, Frost looks up at the lights before they return to normal.

Sharper: “Big match about to happen here on Breakdown. Selena Frost and Autumn Valentine about to go at it. The Adrenaline and one half of the World Tag Team Champions, Selena Frost to face off against the Women’s Champion, Autumn Valentine. No titles on the line though.”

Winters: “Yeah, but momentum and a lot more. Bragging rights are huge.”

Sharper: “And Selena Frost is going to want to get past what happened last week. That horrible attack by the Watsons. And no chance for revenge there.”

The lights dim slightly and the spotlights point down at the stage as the fans quieten in expectation. A woman whispering can be heard across the PA system.

“Don’t bless me father, for I have sinned...”

“Miss Nothing” by The Pretty Reckless begins playing across the PA system as the fans erupt in boos. As the boos continue to ring out Autumn Valentine walks through the curtain wearing a pink ring-jacket with the words DARK FANTASY on the back, spinning around on the stage before holding her arms out to the side and posing on the stage, enjoying the reaction of the fans. The SCW Women’s Championship is around her waist.

Dark Fantasy

Autumn grins at the camera before blowing it a kiss and skipping down to the ring. She jumps on to the ring apron and climbs up on to the ropes, sitting on the top rope for a second before flipping over and landing on her feet in the ring. She runs to the furthest corner and leaps up, raising her arms in to the air and further enjoying the reaction of the fans before again flipping out of the corner and landing on her feet. She circles the ring before walking to the opposite side and posing on the ropes, one foot on the bottom rope and one on the middle rope, and holding her hand to her ear mocking the crowd. She takes off the ring jacket before putting it in her corner. She does the same with her title before turning to Selena Frost.

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine I can tell you has looked forward to this. She’s still however got her eyes on Katie Steward.”

Winters: “Look. I get it. But Katie’s not going to screw over Gigi. I’ve known her for years. Autumn should focus on Gigi. Focus on tonight. She’s going to have to do more than be a nuisance to get Katie’s attention!”

The bell sounds and Autumn smirks at Selena as Selena watches her before then lunging and going for a hard right. Autumn blocks it and nails her with a hard forearm and then a chop. The crowd woos. Autumn pushes her back into the corner. She holds her back and the referee calls for the break.

Autumn backs up and looks at Selena. Selena steps out and Autumn then lunges and grapples her. She then turns into a side headlock, but Selena forearms her in the ribs. She pulls her back and fires her off. Autumn bounces off and Selena shoulders her down. Autumn rolls over as Selena runs into the ropes. Autumn drops down in front of her. Selena hops over. Autumn gets up and Selena hits a spin kick to the ribs. Autumn winces and Selena grabs her and takes her over with a vertical suplex. She goes for the first pin attempt of the match.

Autumn kicks out. Selena grabs her and drags her up.

Sharper: “Selena with the advantage. Hard suplex gets a two count.”

Winters: “Yeah, well keep kicking. Keep slamming.”

Selena kicks Autumn in the ribs. She whips her into the corner. Selena runs after and goes for a clothesline. Autumn moves out of the way. Selena stops and Autumn nails her with a forearm and then another and another. Selena winces in the corner. Autumn then pulls her out and drops her with a short-arm clothesline. Selena gets back up and Autumn turns and pushes herself to the middle turnbuckle before diving off with a flying clothesline. Selena hits the mat. Autumn goes for the pin.

Selena kicks out. Autumn turns and gets up. She stomps Selena in the face. Selena rolls over, holding her face. Autumn stomps her again. She then grabs Selena and drags her up. Autumn then hits a Russian leg sweep. Autumn rolls through and into a pin.

Selena kicks out again. Autumn looks up and then gets up and hits an elbow drop. She then drags her over towards the corner.

Sharper: “Autumn seemingly looking to move Selena into position.”

Winters: “Not good when she starts moving around. She may be small, but knows what to do. Learned from one of the best teams.”

Sharper: “Dark Fantasy. She was in their corner for years.”

Autumn stomps Selena in the face. She then turns to the corner and grabs the top turnbuckle. She then lifts herself up and goes for the split-legged moonsault, but Selena gets her knees up. The crowd roars. Autumn falls back, holding her ribs. Selena rolls over and gets up as Autumn gets up and Selena steps forward and hits a swinging neckbreaker. She goes for the pin.

Autumn kicks out. Selena gets up and hits a knee drop. She gets up and hits a second one. Autumn rolls over, starting to get up. Selena watches her before running at her and jumping up, nailing her with a calf kick. Autumn hits the mat. Selena goes for the pin.

Autumn pushes her off. She sits up and Selena turns and hits a neck whip. Autumn rolls over, holding her head as she starts to get up. Selena watches her.

Sharper: “Autumn starting to get up. Selena just keeping the focus on her. She’s not going to let her get up for long.”

Winters: “Well duh. Unless she’s an idiot.”

Sharper: “And here she comes. The Adrenaline Champion!”

Autumn gets up and Selena runs at her and hits a dropkick. Autumn falls back and hard into the ropes. She falls forward. Selena turns and quickly locks in an Oklahoma roll.

Autumn kicks out. Both women get up. Selena hits a kick to the ribs and then another. She turns and runs into the ropes. Autumn ducks a clothesline on the rebound and hits a back kick. She then grabs Selena, hits a snapmare before running forward and hitting a diving clothesline, knocking Selena down. She goes for the pin, hooking the leg.

Selena gets her shoulder up. Autumn turns and grabs her and lifts her up. She then goes to whip her into the ropes. Selena spins through and sends Autumn into the ropes. Autumn bounces off and hits a flying headscissors. Selena rolls through. She gets up and turns to Autumn and Autumn jumps up and hits a jumping double knee to the jaw. Selena falls back to the corner. Autumn then walks over and nails her with a forearm before lifting Selena up onto the top rope. Autumn grabs her, but Selena boots her in the chest, knocking her back. Autumn rolls over and Selena gets to her feet. She then dives off and nails Autumn Valentine with a spinning heel kick off the top rope!

Sharper: “Huge move! Spinning heel kick! From the top!”

Winters: “Autumn just got twisted all around. No good way to take it, especially if you don’t get your hands up!”

Sharper: “Selena may just need to cover her and that may be it!”

Autumn Valentine stirs and Selena turns and rolls her onto her back before hooking her legs.

Autumn gets her shoulder up. The crowd roars. Selena rolls over and pulls herself up. Autumn stirs and Selena kicks her hard in the ribs. She rears back and kicks her again. She then throws her into the corner. Selena turns and fires Autumn across. Autumn stops at the corner as Selena runs after only for Autumn to jump up and float over into a sunset flip, catching Selena.

Selena kicks out. Both get up and Selena hits a spin kick to the side, causing Autumn to fall to her knees. Selena turns and walks over to the corner. She watches as Autumn gets up and Selena grabs her and lifts her up onto her shoulders. She then goes to throw her forward, but Autumn lands on her feet and grabs Selena’s head and runs into the corner. Autumn runs up the corner, but Selena counters and shrugs Autumn off. Autumn lands on her feet and staggers back.

Sharper: “Big counter. Selena gets Autumn off. Autumn falling back.”

Winters: “Still on her feet though.”

Selena then turns and runs at Autumn, but Autumn ducks a clothesline, but Autumn rolls through and into a roll-up.

Autumn bridges back.

The crowd roars as Selena kicks out at the last moment. Autumn rolls off and out of the ring to the floor. She holds her arm up as the crowd gives a mixed reaction. Selena just turns to her knees and looks up before asking if it was three. The referee nods before going to the floor and raising Autumn’s arm. The crowd starts to boo a bit more as Autumn turns and starts to walk around the ring. Selena starts to get up and looks at Autumn as Autumn grabs the Women’s Championship and holds it up. She then smiles as she starts to make her way to the rampway.

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine got the roll-up and did what you need to do. Get the leverage. That bridge did it.”

Winters: “Yeah. And Selena’s not happy. I think she was thinking of trying to counter it. Hard to do if Autumn doesn’t bend that way.”

Autumn then smile as she starts to walk up the rampway. Selena just stands in the ring and sighs as we cut away.

We open up backstage to see Jake Starr walking through the backstage area. The crowd cheers seeing him.

Wiseman: “Hey! Jake!”

Jake stops and turns and smirks as Merrick Wiseman walks over to Jake.

Starr: “Oh boy! I’ve got my own Sherriff watchin’ me!”

Wiseman: “Not the case at all, Jake.”

The crowd cheers seeing Wiseman.

Wiseman: “Just here to give you a warning…gave Ravyn’s hers last week.”

Starr: “Oh deary me! Well just be careful. I am jumpy. So many people want to kick my ass. I just made a deal with a former rival…now sorta friend…maybe?”

Wiseman: “I’m serious…you’re getting your rematch this Saturday. If you want any hope, you better be focused on that and not Rise to Greatness. And I will say this though, this Saturday, if Silas or any of them come down, Cruze too…I’ll be right there to make sure they don’t anything.”

Starr: “The offers nice, but Wise-ass…you should hope that you just finally WIN the title. Just like I hope to do so again. Heading to Rise to Greatness…every win counts…”

Starr turns and walks off. Wiseman watches him go.

Wiseman: “I hope you’re ready for a loss then. Because I plan to finally hold the US Title with pride.”

The camera focuses on Wiseman as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up backstage to see Autumn Valentine smiling as she walks down one of the hallways. We see her walk up to Christy Matthews and the two embrace. The crowd cheers seeing her.

Christy: “Nice win out there. Tough one to say the least.”

Autumn: “Nice to pick it up too. Maybe people will remember what I do.”

Christy: “Just don’t let it go to your head.”

Autumn: “I’m not at all. Just wish I could get a damn response from Katie.”

Christy: “You’ve got some challengers though-“

Autumn: “Not Katie…she’s who I want. She’s who I want to test myself against and who is going to give me the best opportunity to get people’s attention.”

Autumn smiles as she turns to Christy and starts to lead her down the hallway.

Autumn: “Come on.”

Christy shakes her head as we head to ringside.

A few moments pass before “This is How a Heart Breaks” plays throughout the arena. The crowd boos before we see CHBK walking out from the back. He just smiles before glancing back as Mikaela Street walks out with him. The crowd continues to boo as the two start to make their way down to the ring.

Sharper: “CHBK joining us here. I don’t have a clue what he is doing out here.”

Winters: “Whatever he wants. He’s a legend, a hall of famer and frankly, if he wants to come out, he’s earned the right to do so!”

Sharper: “Well I still wonder why. Last week, he came out with Mikaela to her theme. Now they’re coming out to his!”

CHBK continues on his way to the ring with Mikaela by his side. Mikaela reaches the ring and grabs the ropes and pulls herself up onto the apron before entering the ring. CHBK walks up the steel steps and enters the ring. He looks around and then looks up at the cage before turning to Mikaela. Mikaela points at it before CHBK shrugs and then goes over to the corner and is handed a microphone. CHBK takes it and walks back to the middle of the ring. His music fades out and the crowd boos. CHBK looks around, just listening to the boos as they continue to resound throughout the arena. CHBK scoffs a bit before turning to Mikaela.

Sharper: “This crowd clearly not CHBK or Mikaela Street fans.”

Winters: “That’s because they don’t know talent.”

CHBK continues to hear the boos.

CHBK: “You do realize I have more patience than you all do.”

The crowd boos as CHBK smirks and looks around.

CHBK: “After last week and watching Regan Street and David Helms apparently think that they can just walk away, I figured I would make a point to remind them what Regan Street threw away.”

The crowd boos as CHBK smiles a bit.

CHBK: “See, one of the great things about being in his company for so long and making them a lot of money, a few people owe me favours and well, while Regan Street apparently figures that facing Shilo Valiant and spending candlelit dinners with David Helms as he tries to figure out which blonde he likes more…I’m helping my students out. And Mikaela now can stand here knowing that she won’t have to wait that much longer to champion.”

The crowd boos. Mikaela just smiles, clearly excited.

Sharper: “What does he mean?”

CHBK: “See, it seems that Mikaela, in two short matches has impressed so much that someone was more than happy to sign off on Mikaela Street getting a Women’s Championship shot at Rise to Greatness!”

The crowd boos.

Sharper: “What?”

Winters: “Well I guess Gigi is going to get pushed aside again!”

CHBK: “That’s right. Mikaela Street is going to start by getting back the title she should have never lost in the first place. She will show all that I’ve taught her by defeating the woman we just saw in this ring moments ago, Autumn Valentine on the grandest stage in wrestling. I don’t care, and neither does Mikaela about Katie Steward and Autumn Valentine’s pathetic personal priorities. She should be honoured to face against the rising star in this company!”

The crowd boos. CHBK just smiles and turns to Mikaela who just smiles and nods.

CHBK: “Thank you for your-“

Mikaela then stops him and points up to the cage.

CHBK: “Oh yes…thank you Mikaela. I almost forgot, with such an exciting announcement….I also know what the hell that damn cage is doing up there too!”

Sharper: “Why am I not surprised?”

Winters: “He’s better connected than the boss.”

CHBK smirks as the crowd boos some more. CHBK then looks around.

CHBK: “Now, now. Relax. This is good for you. You get to see history made. I mean, it’s not like any of your sporting teams are going to ever amount to anything. So you need to see history done by real winners!”

The crowd boos loudly as CHBK smiles a bit more.

CHBK: “It’s just too easy, but to get back to the point, I like to consider myself a bit of a problem solver and I noticed that last week, Shaun Cruze wasn’t too pleased with the new addition to the Rise to Greatness main event. Well, guess what…you won’t need to worry about that anymore!”

Sharper: “What does he mean?”

CHBK smiles as he leans on the ropes and looks at thecamera.

CHBK: “See, remember that contract that I had secured for Regan Street. Well it turns out that someone had no problem changing some language and instead, offering it to me…And well, I asked for one simple change…and that was the steel cage you see hanging above us…That’s right. Tonight, you will watch me as I not only win my sixth World Championship, but I secure my spot in the main event of Rise to Greatness one more time!”

The crowd cheers a bit, while some boos then come out.

Winters: “Hot damn!”

Sharper: “My God….CHBK and Cruze for the title tonight in a cage?!”

CHBK: “See Shaun…good things come to those who wait. You won’t need to worry about Starr and Syren ruining your match after all. And Regan…just remember…this could’ve been yours!”

CHBK steps back from the ropes as “This is How a Heart Breaks” plays. CHBK turns and hands off the microphone. Mikaela Street just smiles as CHBK walks around the ring, a confident smirk on his face as the crowd gives him a mixed reaction.

Sharper: “I can’t believe what we just heard. CHBK was right when he said he and Mikaela would make an impact this week.”

Winters: “Mikaela just jumped to the front of the line for the Women’s Championship. Autumn and Mikaela at Rise to Greatness and now tonight, steel cage match for the World Title, Shaun Cruze and CHBK. The crafty old bastard always has something up his sleeve.”

Sharper: “You have to wonder what Cruze thinks?”

Winters: “Or Kelcey or Silas or who knows what else? Rise to Greatness could change in a big way here tonight!”

CHBK continues to enjoy the reaction in the ring before exiting the ring. He then helps Mikaela down to the floor as she exits and the two start to make their way to the back as the crowd continues to boo them.

We abruptly cut backstage as we see Shaun Cruze storming out of his locker room, the door slamming behind him.

Cruze: “What the hell is this crap?!”

Cruze turns and starts to storm down the hallway as the crowd roars.

Sharper: “Oh boy…”

Winters: “And here we go!”

Sharper: “Cruze is angry…and a big announcement. This is going to be a hell of a night!”

The scene slowly fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up backstage to see Regan Street just shaking his head. David Helms is with her as Kayl just remains standing by the monitor.

Regan: “Now he’s going for the World Title and gets Mikaela a shot…unbelievable.”

Helms: “You don’t think he’s the better choice, do you?”

Regan: “No…just getting annoyed. He wins this, he’s going to have more bragging rights and the World Title.”

Helms: “He’s not worth it…”

Kayl: “And you’ve got Shilo.”

Regan: “Yeah…if the creep shows.”

Helms: “He will.”

Regan: “Better…because if not…I may not be better than CHBK and instead, I’ll just kick his ass anyways.”

Helms just turns to Kayl. The two share a glance as Regan shakes her head and walks off.

We then cut to the office of Mr. D to see Shaun Cruze shouting at the boss. Alicia, his personal assistant is furiously trying to type everything.

Cruze: “What the hell kind of crap is this? I’m heading to the biggest show of the year. Not only do my challengers change AFTER I sign a damn contract to get the match I want, but now I have to defend my title in a damn cage against a fifty year old getriatric waste of space who is angry because Regan Street won’t just bend over for him! What the hell is this CRAP!”

Mr. D: “You better lower your voice or I’m going to have you removed and it’s going to be a bit hard for you to defend your title if you’re locked outside!”

Cruze just glares at Mr. D, seething.

Cruze: “You know this is BS.”

Mr. D: “And you know I would’ve probably promoted the hell out of it if it was my idea. I just found out now. The Board just now send the notarized contract. He’s been in this company since the start. He’s got some friends. And they helped him big tonight.”

Cruze: “Yeah…good to know the boss is actually in charge.”

Cruze turns away and starts to leave before turning back.

Cruze: “I’ll just maybe take care of this myself.”

Cruze turns and walks off as Mr. D just sits down and sighs before we then see Gigi Steward storm into the room.

Gigi: “Really? I’m getting passed over for her now! That blonde bitch who has what? Two matches in the last month?!”

Mr. D: “I had nothing to d-“

Gigi: “No. I’m sick of this. I just want ONE more shot-“

Autumn: “What the hell is this? I don’t want Mikaela. I want Katie-“

Gigi: “Yeah, and screw me over again. Hell, I’ll just take my shot now!”

Gigi then nails Autumn with a hard right. Mr. D stands up as the crowd roars. Autumn nails Gigi with a shot and the two trade blows, before Christy Matthews steps in and pulls Autumn back. Autumn just glares at Gigi.

Mr. D: “Both of you out of my office!”

A couple of security team members come in and help escort them out as Mr. D just sits back down. He just shakes his head.

Mr. D: “Give me a note to talk to the board. I’m done with this backstabbing crap.”

Alicia: “Are you sure?”

Mr. D: “I know you’re here because of them.”

Alicia: “Yes sir.”

Mr. D sits down as Alicia takes her tablet and then starts to head out of the room and we cut to the ring.

Kyojin vs. Lil Knoxville

Upbeat country chords gradually overcome static, and fill the arena through the PA system.

I’m gonna kill you!
Simply gonna kill you!
And bury you in a box about half your size!

Suddenly, Wynn Stewart’s “I’m Gonna Kill You” dies out and is replaced by the uncomfortable sounds of chains rattling. The ‘Tron suddenly comes to life with the image of a young woman, drenched in sweat, breathing heavily. She checks around the corner and quickly jerks her head back to a forward position. Fighting tears, she utters the words…

We’re all gonna die!

The Arctic Monkey's "Do I Wanna Know" hits the PA. From behind the curtain, Ian Keith walks out in his wrestling trunks, sporting a black hoodie with a black towel that covers his face. He makes his way towards the ring to a mild pop, which he shrugs off. When he gets to the apron, he leaps up and grabs the top rope, steps between the ropes, and enters the ring. He removes his hood and towel and looks around the arena. He tosses his entrance gear into the crowd and cracks his neck, smiling as he rests against the corner. “Yonkers” dies out.

Sharper: “This should be a treat.”

Winters: “Well it’s Rise to Greatness season. A number of people jumping into the deep end with both feet, but both of these two may have something. Ian Keith, also known as Kyojin, has some experience.”

Sharper: “But you have to wonder what his opponent has to think. Just signed by SCW…and a big chance for him to have one more good run.”

LIL KNOXVILLE ENTRANCE

Sharper: “Lil Knoxville is in SCW!”

Winters: “Yeah and he’s getting thrown into the fire. Welcome to the big stage!”

Sharper: “I’m sure he’s ready. I’m sure both are. This should be interesting.”

The bell sounds and Knoxville and Keith look at each other. Keith moves in and looks to grab Knoxville, only for Knoxville to kick him in the ribs and nail him with a hard right hand. Keith staggers back and Knoxville nails him again and then leans on him in the corner before kneeing him again. He turns and hip tosses him out as Keith rolls over, holding his back and turns to Knoxville. Kyojin runs at Knoxville and Knoxville side steps him, sends him into the ropes. He bounces off and Knoxville back drops him down. Kyojin rolls over and goes to the ropes, glaring at Knoxville.

Sharper: “Knoxville, the veteran, has Ian ‘Kyojin’ Keith on the ropes.”

Winters: “Well, he may have just poked the bear. You can see the frustration in Kyojin’s eyes.”

Kyojin gets up and runs at Knoxville and Knoxville drops him with a knife-edged chop. He goes for the pin.

Kyojin kicks out. Both get up and Kyojin quickly grabs the arm of Knoxville and quickly goes into a hammerlock. Knoxville elbows him in the jaw. Kyojin grimaces and Knoxville elbows him again before running into the ropes. He bounces off and Kyojin ducks a clothesline and then grabs him from behind and lifts him up, drops him with a Greco-Roman takedown before moving into a front face lock. He slowly pulls Knoxville up and moves him into the corner. The referee calls for the break. Kyojin however pulls him up and over with a single-arm underhook suplex. Knoxville rolls through. Kyojin goes for a clothesline. Knoxville ducks and both turn to each other and Knoxville hits a quick inverted atomic drop and Kyojin falls back to the corner.

Sharper: “And Knoxville gets control. Again, not getting worried. Not getting flustered, just controlling Kyojin.”

Winters: “Says a lot. Both making their debut. You can see that Kyojin is getting a bit frustrated, but the extra experience of Knoxville enough to keep him calm.”

Knoxville walks over and nails Kyojin with a stiff hard right. He rears back and nails him again. He then hits a chop. He whips Kyojin across. He runs after him and Kyojin gets his elbow up. He then runs out and spins through and pulls Knoxville into his knee. He then turns and throws him down with a Russian leg sweep. He goes for the pin.

Knoxville kicks out. Kyojin grabs him and turns him and grabs the arm. He holds on as Knoxville starts to pull himself up. Kyojin holds on and clubs Knoxville in the ribs. Knoxville is clubbed again before Kyojin spins him off into the ropes. Knoxville bounces off and nails him with a running clothesline. Kyojin gets up and Knoxville grabs him and goes for the Teardrop suplex, connecting. He turns and goes for the pin.

Kyojin gets his shoulder up. Knoxville looks up and grabs him and drags him up. He then turns and pushes him into the ropes. He whips him across. He then bounces off the ropes and Knoxville goes for a spear, but Kyojin jumps over him. Knoxville stops and turns around and Kyojin runs at him and nails him with a hard forearm and then another. Knoxville falls back to the corner. Kyojin then nails him with a series of forearms in the corner.

Sharper: “A flurry of shots. Of forearms. Kyojin all over Knoxville.”

Winters: “Keep going! You’ve got till five!”

Kyojin takes a couple more shots before whipping Knoxville across the ring. Knoxville hits hard. Kyojin turns and runs across and nails him with a running yakuza kick. The crowd ohs. Knoxville stumbles out and Kyojin forces him down before going for the pin.

Knoxville kicks out. Kyojin looks up. He then grabs Knoxville and drags him up. He places his head under his arm and looks around. He then hoists him up, but Knoxville spins through and lands behind. He shoves him forward. Kyojin bounces off and Knoxville drills him with a discus clothesline. The crowd ohs.

Winters: “That’s how you do it. Take his damn head off!”

Sharper: “Hard clothesline. Kyojin down and Lil Knoxville may be looking to finally end this.”

Winters: “Don’t think. Do it!”

Knoxville then grabs Kyojin and starts to lift him up only for Kyojin to shoulder Knoxville in the ribs. He then gets and gutwrenches Knoxville up. Knoxville kicks his legs, trying to loosen Ian “Kyojin” Keith’s grip only for Kyojin to throw him down with the Ian-Tensive Care. The crowd ohs and Keith goes for the pin.

The crowd roars and looks on in some shock as Kyojin gets up and the referee raises his arm.

Sharper: “Wow! Talk about an upset! Ian Kyojin Keith….with the upset over Lil Knoxville!”

Winters: “Knoxville had the hype, but Kyojin got the win. Talk about making a statement. That’s what you do. You may not get the cameras…you’re getting them now!”

Kyojin looks over at Knoxville before turning and walking around the ring. He jumps down to the floor. Knoxville winces and holds his back. The camera focuses on Knoxville for a moment before cutting to Ian “Kyojin” Keith as he walks to the back, smile on his face.

“Rescue Me” starts to play. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen and we cut backstage to see Rachel Foxx, Rachel Frost, Aiken, and their entourages with Red Rayne walking at the back.

Sharper: “There you see, the Coalition. Back in full force.”

Winters: “Where’s the big guy, Jed Wayne?”

Sharper: “Don’t know. I almost don’t want to. I’m already uneasy with them coming out here next. Breakdown continues after this…”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

The lights go out. The arena darkens as the tunes of “Lux Aeterna” begin to play. Suddenly strobe lights begin to flicker as the dimly lit entrance way sees two individuals slowly walk out in Rachel Frost and Rachel Foxx followed by Aiken, Red Rayne, Cassidy Carter & Ba’al. Both dressed in all black, Frost and Foxx with noose, Foxx with sledgehammer in hand walk to the ring not paying attention to anything. They reach the ring as Aiken looks around and smiles before walking up the steel steps. He leads the group into the ring. Rachel Frost is next, followed by Foxx. Red Rayne is next before Ba’al and Cassidy.

Sharper: “The Coalition is not only back in force, it’s grown. Red Rayne, the former Daisy Lee, now standing with them and last week, she made an impact.”

Winters: “That’s one way to look at it.”

BREAKDOWN – June 18, 2014

The lights remain out for a few moments as the crowd roars. Cell phones can be seen lit up before we then see Aiken standing in the ring as a red hue comes over the ring. Kissinger starts to get up and nails Frost before we see a woman in a red-hooded robe and she kicks Kissinger in the ribs. Kissinger staggers back before this woman spewed blood red liquid into the eyes of Kissinger. Kissinger falls back, yelling in pain. Frost just gets up and smiles as Aiken just looks down at Kissinger. We then see the woman pull the hood off. Just then “Red Rain” by Peter Gabriel starts to play. The crowd boos as they look into the ring and see the three smiling in the ring.

We cut to the ring to focus on Red Rayne as she looks around. We see Aiken standing with a microphone as Foxx also has one and Rachel Frost looks around, glaring at her home state fans.

Sharper: “There is a group of pure destruction in that ring.”

Winters: “And you have to wonder. Frost has her job back. Red Rayne has arrived. What is the Coalition thinking? What is Requiem thinking?”

Aiken looks around as Foxx turns to Aiken. Aiken just nods.

Aiken: “It’s been far too long since we’ve all been in the ring. And it only seems fitting that we stand here in Houston, the homestate of my Rachel, that the next phase of the Coalition, begins.”

Aiken smile as the crowd gives a mixed reaction.

Aiken: “I could hazard a guess and say total destruction…”

Aiken smiles. Foxx then interrupts.

Foxx: “Which we’re happy to do…”

Rachel Frost smiles.

Aiken: “And no one says we won’t. The Coalition is not only back together, but we have a new addition in Red Rayne. And I can only hope that those in the back realize what is on the horizon for them. The violence. The destruction…the taking what we should already have more than enough claims on. And perhaps Rachel, it seems like we need to move forward on one of those claims.”

Rachel Frost nods as Foxx smiles.

Foxx: “Well then where are we going to focus because I seem to have angered some annoyances for us.”

Aiken: “The Falconry?”

Aiken smirks. Rachel Frost moves over and turns to Aiken and says something.

Aiken: “Oh…she likes the idea of seeing whether Alexis Quinne will still skip around if she gets split open by us. Oh….I like this….We could say something about Stacy Kissinger, but she’s not an issue so it seems.”

Foxx: “So then…what are we doing? The World Championship seems to be out of our grasp…for now.”

Aiken: “For now…”

Aiken smirks as Red Rayne smiles.

Aiken: “Perhaps we need to take something that should’ve been ours months ago.”

Foxx: “The World Tag Team Championship.”

Red Rayne then asks for Aiken. Aiken walks over.

Rayne: “I want to see them bleed.”

Rayne smiles as Rachel Frost smiles. Aiken walks over to Rachel Frost.

Frost: “I’m more than willin’ ta do that. The perfect hair…the goody-two-shoes…let’s see if ya can keep that goin when ya dealin’ with hell.”

Foxx: “And we’ve never truly given them what we know they deserve.”

Foxx smiles.

Aiken: “How many times is it?”

The crowd just buzzes, watching this odd situation play out in the ring. Rayne then walks in.

Rayne: “Too many.”

Rachel Frost smiles.

Aiken: “Then I think it’s settled. Rachel….Rachel…How do you feel like finally becoming the World Tag Team Champions when they should’ve been yours months ago?”

Rachel Frost smiles and just nods. Rachel Foxx looks at Aiken.

Foxx: “I think it’s time that we make Selena’s hair match her partners….we make it blood red!”

Aiken smiles as does Rachel Frost. Red Rayne smiles.

Sharper: “Creepy…”

Winters: “You’re telling me…”

Aiken looks around.

Aiken: “I think we have a winning idea…and Selena Frost…Dawn Lohan…they may have dodged our advances thus far….but one way or another, I think we’re going to find some new gold for us to hold. I think we’re going to remind everyone why they should fear the Coalition…fear Requiem!”

Foxx then walks in.

Foxx: “Oh…they won’t have time to fear…because when we’re through, their lives will change forever!”

Foxx smiles as Frost smiles too. Red Rayne just nods as Aiken smirks. “Lux Aeterna” plays as the crowd boos. Rachel Frost, Rachel Foxx and Red Rayne stand in the middle of the ring smiling as Aiken backs up.

Winters: “If I’m 4Saken…I’m fearing the future.”

Sharper: “Requiem have their sights set. They have their eyes on the World Tag Team Championship!”

Winters: “The thing is…are they going to get the shot and if they don’t…”

Sharper: “I don’t want to think about that. I’m already fearing the fact that Frost is back and Red Rayne is here. And next, Rachel Foxx will be in action against Kelcey Wallace.”

Winters: “The gang is all here. Silas Mason better be ready if he wants to protect his Perfect Ten!”

The Coalition remains in the ring, hearing the mixed reaction as Aiken just shows everyone off. The camera pans out slowly as Red Rayne, Rachel Foxx and Rachel Frost all look right at the camera before we cut away to commercial.

COMMERCIAL:

Rachel Foxx vs. Kelcey Wallace

We open up at ringside to see Rachel Foxx standing in the ring. Rachel Frost and Aiken stand on one side of the ring by her corner as Ba’al and Cassidy are on the other side. Red Rayne stands directly behind the ringpost. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “Coalition is here in force and ready. No one left.”

Winters: “And the referee made no attempt to get them out of here. I don’t blame him.”

The trumpets sound as the chorus for “Exodus” by Ernest Gold begins to play to play. The spotlight then turns to the middle of the entrance way. A few moments pass before Silas Mason walks out from the back. The crowd boos before we see Kraven Wallace, Harmony Fisher, Brittany Lohan, Angelica Jones and Taylor Chase-Cruze. Silas turns to the back as Kelcey Wallace walks out from the back, leading to some cheers from the crowd. Kelcey looks down to the ring as Rachel Foxx smiles, ready to fight.

Sharper: “And there are the cavalry.”

Winters: “Everyone out here but Chris Cannon and Cannon’s allowed into the arena. That may say something there.”

Sharper: “But if the Coalition is out here, Silas’ World will be too.”

The group slowly makes their way to the ring as Kelcey Wallace remains behind them, Silas holding her by the hand and standing with her. Lohan moves back as Silas then leads Kelcey to the ring. Kelcey doesn’t look at Silas at all as he starts to talk to him. Kelcey just focuses on the ring. Silas continues to talk before Kelcey then hops onto the apron and enters the ring. Foxx runs over as the crowd roars and nails Kelcey with a forearm shot. Silas immediately yells at the official for not keeping her back.

Sharper: “Rachel Foxx going right to Kelcey and here we go. Silas already unhappy as the official made no attempt to keep Foxx back.”

Winters: “Yeah, because that’s a smart move. Let’s just jump in front of a freight train to prevent the inevitable! Come on!”

Kelcey is nailed with another one and Foxx gets her to the corner. Foxx kicks her in the ribs and nails her with a forearm shot and then a chop. The crowd woos. Foxx grabs her and whips her across the ring. Kelcey hits the corner and is in the Coalition corner. Silas just watches them as do everyone and Foxx runs after Kelcey, but Kelcey moves out of the way. Cassidy goes to grab her as Foxx hits the corner. Kelcey turns and kicks at the ropes and then backs up as the crowd roars, just making a bunch of noise. Foxx just smiles as she walks out of the corner and watches Kelcey. Kelcey then tells her to come at her and Foxx happily obliges. She lunges and Kelcey ducks a clothesline attempt. Foxx turns and Kelcey kicks her in the ribs before rearing back and kneeing her in the face. Foxx falls back and down towards the ropes. Lohan goes to grab Foxx, but Kelcey grabs her first and pulls her away. She then hits a snap suplex on the Suicide Queen.

Sharper: “Lohan was about to get involved and you know that Silas’ World has no problem playing the eye for an eye game.”

Winters: “Except why would you do that? Coalition plays for keeps.”

Sharper: “Lohan would too. And Angelica Jones has a similar history in previous employment. Both are able to be as brutal as the Coalition.”

Winters: “Harmony too.”

Kelcey goes for the pin.

Rachel Foxx kicks out. Foxx rolls over and Kelcey grabs her and pulls her away from the ropes before scooping her up and dropping her with a back suplex. Kelcey turns and goes to the corner. She pulls herself up to the middle rope. She looks forward and dives off and hits a knee drop. She rolls through and then goes back for another pin attempt.

Rachel Foxx kicks out. Kelcey turns and grabs her, but Rachel Foxx reaches out and digs her fingers into her eyes. Kelcey yells out and Foxx rakes the eyes. Kelcey falls back and Kraven then reaches in and pulls her out of the ring. The crowd boos a bit as Rachel Foxx just laughs as she looks at them. We then cut back to see Red Rayne just standing, having hardly moved.

Sharper: “Kelcey pulled out of the ring by her brother and clearly by Silas’ urging to keep her safe.”

Winters: “This is wrestling. You’re never safe.”

Sharper: “And meanwhile, there you see Red Rayne and you have to think that is in the back of Silas’ mind, what she did to Stacy Kissinger last week.”

Winters: “That’s if Kissinger is even represented by Silas anymore. Who knows what happened there?!”

Kelcey pushes away from Kraven and stumbles back before turning and rolling into the ring. She gets up and Rachel grabs her and rakes her eyes again. Kelcey turns and gets to the ropes. Rachel Foxx follows her and kicks her in the ribs. She kicks her again and whips her across. Kelcey bounces off and Rachel nails her with a back elbow. Kelcey hits the mat and pops back up. Rachel then elbows her in the back of the head before pulling her back and hitting a reverse DDT. She hooks the leg for the pin.

Kelcey kicks out. She turns and Rachel grabs her by the hair. She starts to pull as the crowd roars. We then cut to the entrance way to see Dawn Lohan and Selena Frost walking out from the back. They look down to the ring as Rachel nails Kelcey with a hard forearm shot and then whips her into the ropes. Kelcey bounces off and Rachel then hoists Kelcey up and plants her with a spinebuster. Rachel Foxx gets up as she turns to the entrance way. We notice Frost getting ready to fight as Ba’al walks over and grabs a steel chair.

Sharper: “Wait a minute! World Tag Champs coming down!”

Winters; “And they’re getting ready! Ba’al just grabbed a chair.”

Sharper: “Kelcey down. Foxx seemingly now focusing on Dawn and Selena!”

Winters: “Silas has noticed him too.”

Brittany Lohan looks at her sister Dawn as Dawn just focuses on the ring. Silas walks over to Brittany and says something to her as Harmony is then grabbed by Brittany and Brittany just smiles. Foxx turns and grabs Kelcey and drags her to her feet. She then whips her hard into the corner. Foxx runs over and after her and jumps up for a running dropkick, but Kelcey moves out of the way. The crowd cheers. Rachel Foxx hit the mat and Kelcey then grabs her and lifts her up and hits a running bulldog. Foxx rolls over and starts to get back up. She turns to Kelcey and Kelcey then grabs her by the head before planting her with the Runway Walk. The crowd cheers. Kelcey hooks the leg.

Foxx gets her shoulder up. Dawn and Selena just continue to watch as Brittany watches them, Jones watches the Coalition and Ba’al starts to stroke the chair that he picked up. Frost smiles as Aiken talks to Red Rayne a bit, who remains stoic.

Sharper: “Rachel Foxx gets the shoulder up and Kelcey Wallace can’t quite put her away!”

Winters: “This is the weirdest standoff. A match is going on. Foxx and Wallace are focusing on that and we are just waiting for that war to break out. If I’m one of them, I just light that proverbial match.”

Sharper: “And you think, with Kelcey looking to have a huge match coming up. She’s in the main event of Rise to Greatness, that may be smart. But that’s not her call. She’s been taking the fight to Foxx even if Silas is nervous!”

Winters: “And Rayne hasn’t moved yet. That’s just freaking me the hell out! And I’m a former world champion and I’ve had sex with some REALLY crazy girls too!”

Foxx stirs and Kelcey grabs her and pulls her up before whipping her into the corner. Kelcey runs after and clotheslines her in the corner. She then pulls her out, hooks her up and goes to place her on the top rope, but Foxx blocks it. Kelcey tries again, but Foxx blocks it again and lifts her up and throws her forward with a front suplex. Kelcey holds her ribs and gets up and Foxx jumps up and hits the Foxx Girl Cutter. The crowd boos and Foxx goes for the pin.

Kelcey gets her shoulder up as the crowd cheers. Foxx looks down at her and then looks at Silas. Silas watches her and Foxx then grabs Kelcey and turns and goes to throw her out of the ring, but Kelcey blocks it and spins through, sending Foxx out of the ring to the floor, right towards Ba’al and Cassidy Carter.

Sharper: “Foxx sent to the floor! Foxx tried to see Kelcey down.”

Winters: “Not how it worked at all.”

Sharper: “And wait a minute! Look out!”

Winters: “What are you doing?!”

Kelcey runs across the ring. By the time, Silas realizes what she’s doing, he misses an attempted save and trip and Kelcey runs at the ropes and flip dives over them and right onto Foxx, Ba’al and Carter!

Sharper: “Wallace over the top, onto Foxx’s entourage! She’s going to light that proverbial match!”

Kelcey Wallace then gets up and Silas just starts to yell at everyone to get around the ring. Lohan and Jones lead the charge followed by Kraven on the other side. Harmony goes with Kraven as Taylor remains with Silas. Kelcey gets up and she then turns and nails Frost with a hard right as the crowd roars. She turns and nails Aiken and Red Rayne then kicks her in the ribs. She turns and rolls her into the ring as the referee calls for the bell. Kraven then runs over and Ba’al as he gets up and they tackle each other down. Harmony goes after Red Rayne and the two of them trade blows as Lohan grabs Frost and Frost turns and nails Lohan and Rachel starts to get up. Kelcey starts to get up in the ring and backs up as Foxx gets up and Jones goes to grab her, but Aiken nails her with a shot to the ribs. The crowd just cheers.

Sharper: “Coalition and Silas’ World! They’re brawling! Right in front of us!”

Winters: “Get the shields up. I’m too old for this! There’s a reason I’m retired!”

Sharper: “Kelcey in the ring. The bell sounded. I think she won by disqualification. And look out! Foxx! Foxx is up!”

Foxx turns and enters the ring and Kelcey turns runs into the ropes. Silas and Taylor grab her legs and pull her down. The crowd boos as Foxx gets up and smiles as we see Selena and Dawn slide into the ring on both sides of Silas and Taylor and Kelcey. Dawn gets up and runs over to Rachel, but Selena nails her with the Tag Team Championship. The crowd cheers. Dawn then watches as Selena unloads on Rachel Foxx with hard rights. Lohan turns a bit surprised only for Rachel Frost to kick her in the ribs and Rachel Frost turns and rolls into the ring. Lohan turns as Rachel Frost smiles and nails her with a hard right. Dawn nails her with a shot. The two of them trade blows before Selena gets up. Brittany Lohan then enters the ring and Rachel Frost knocks Dawn Lohan back and turns to Selena only for Lohan to clubs her in the back. Harmony Fisher looks up as Cassidy rakes her eyes and backs off.

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan just saved her sister there. Selena was going to, but Brittany intervening!”

Winters: “Rachel Foxx just got nailed by Selena! The Tag Champs getting involved and clearly firing the first shot back at Requiem!”

Officials start to head down to the ring as Silas looks in the ring and Taylor holds Kelcey back as Kelcey wants to get back into the ring. Rachel Frost starts to get up and Selena turns and kicks her in the ribs. Rachel Frost rolls over and starts to get up only as officials run into the ring and too and break them up. Brittany just watches Dawn and Selena with a smile on her face as officials also break up Kraven and Ba’al, Jones and Aiken are broken up as Red Rayne nails Harmony with a shot and then are broken up.

Sharper: “A war out here, and right now, two sisters are staring each other down. Kelcey wants back in the ring.”

Winters: “Taylor and Silas say no and damn well right to do so. It’s not worth it. Not with those crazies!”

Sharper: “My God, what a scene here as officials and agents try to get control. What a first half here in Houston! Things are heating up! Coalition back to causing problems. Kelcey still wins and the Tag Champs fire the first shot at Requiem! What else is going to happen tonight?! Jim, Jay and Dean are waiting for you in the Supreme Studios. Intermission here is next. More Breakdown to come!”

The scene slowly fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up with a live shot of the outside of the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas as “Rescue Me” plays in the background. The camera cuts out and pans down into the Supreme Studio to see Jim Dawson, Dean Black and Jay Gold.

Dawson: “And welcome now inside the Supreme Studios here in Toronto. What a night it has been in Houston so far. We’re going to break down some of the action we’ve seen here tonight. But first, two things we really do need to discuss. The first may be the obvious. We have a World Title match tonight.”

Gold: “You know…in eleven years, I’ve seen CHBK pull some big capers. This may be one of his biggest. Using his influence to not only get a title match, but get a cage match. Deters Regan, Kayl, Helms, Cruze, Syren…Starr…..all of them from getting involved.”

Black: “Silas’ World too.”

Gold: “Exactly. And trust me, Shaun Cruze can go…but as we both know, Dean, you don’t ever count out CHBK, even if he’s not been as amazing as he was in the past.”

Black: “And I think that’s one thing that should be mentioned…CHBK is very good at the tactical side. He’s fifty years old. He knows it. But on top of that…he made this a cage match and his record in cage matches is great. I believe he’s only lost one cage match in his career. Tonight, Shaun Cruze would normally be the favourite. He’s got to have something up his sleeve.”

Dawson: “He may, but he has made more enemies. He’s getting more brazen. But then again, he’s always been one to take what he wants. Shaun Cruze however, let’s remember, he’s not lost in singles action since last Fall.”

Dawson pauses for a moment.

Dawson: “Along with that, we saw a huge brawl to close off the first hour. As you can see…as we go to a live shot…”

We see a live shot of the arena on the big screen behind the panel.

Dawson: “The situation has been resolved now. Silas Mason regrouping the troops. Coalition regrouping too. But not just that, the Tag Team Champions making a clear statement. They’re not going to get walked over.”

Black: “And good for them to do so. Dawn Lohan has a reputation for being a goody-two-shoes. Selena Frost is seen as that just by being with her. Both had a reputation for being push-overs or not getting their hands dirty. Tonight, they got their hands dirty. They went after Foxx. They saw a moment to send a message. If Requiem wants to come after 4Saken, they better be ready for a fight.”

Gold: “That’s great and all. But they need to be ready for a fight too. And they just gave Requiem a reason to come after them. And not just to toy with them. They made sure that target is more than painted on. I’m looking forward to this.”

Black: “Same here.”

Dawson: “Meanwhile, one top of all of that. Almost lost in all the chaos, and the World Title announcement, although that could work to their favour, Syren and Jake Starr banding together and almost having a truce.”

Gold: “I’ll believe it when I see it. I only say that because this is Rise to Greatness season. This is where you go for broke. Syren wants to be champion. Starr wants to be champion. Do you think they’ll not take a shot if they get a chance.”

Black: “And if they do, I wouldn’t blame them. At the same time, Cruze and Silas seemingly worked together last week. They both are equally as angry this week with the CHBK situation. Which duo is more unstable? And regardless, I think it’s more that Starr and Syren see some strength with at least supporting their Trios Tournament cash-ins. If one’s a target, they both are. And they want to make sure they’ve got someone else with a like interest.”

Gold: “But is it a like interest if you can benefit from the other person being taken out. A lot of time heading into Rise to Greatness.”

The Supreme Saturday logo comes up on the screen behind them before we see Syren vs. Shaun Cruze.

Dawson: “Definitely, but not as much time until Supreme Saturday: Rampage at the Riverwalk this Saturday and those partnerships, allegiances, they may be tested right off the bat. Syren and Shaun Cruze will face each other that night.”

Black: “We’ve talked about the records of both. Cruze undefeated since last fall. Syren only has lost one match in 2014. That may very well change for one of them this Saturday. Big stakes. Big momentum. It is non-title though.”

Gold: “And with Cruze in there? He may take a shot at doing damage. Silas too.”

The still changes to Wiseman vs. Starr vs. Taylor.

Dawson: “And along with that, Jake Starr will be in action when he faces off against Ravyn Taylor and Merrick Wiseman. US Title on the line.”

Gold: “Can Merrick finally get a break? The man is the US Champion. He just wants to earn it, no BS, no interference.”

Black: “No rules in one sense. Triple Threat rules. But no champion’s advantage. If Wiseman wanted a challenge…he wanted to move past this all. He’ll get the chance this Saturday.”

The still changes again to show Gable Winchester vs. William Mason.

Dawson: “But along with those matches, some other big matches and one will see Gable Winchester face off against William Mason. He got past Cameron Chase thanks to William Mason kicking him in the back. Gable Winchester gets a shot at revenge this Saturday. Let’s go to Jessica Winters who is standing by with the Man of Win himself.”

The scene cuts to the backstage area where we see Gable Winchester, with Jack, standing with Jessica Winters.

Jessica: “Thank you Jim. Gable, last week, you faced Cameron Chase and won, although not in the fashion you had hoped. Now, this Saturday, you face William Mason in a rematch of what started this whole issue.”

Winchester: “And frankly, this is getting old. But if I have to shut Billy-boy’s big yap one more time just so he gets the hint, I’m happy to do it this Saturday. The fact that his wife had to try and make her name off of me for her own selfish needs, that’s pathetic enough. But now, that they claim it was a win. That’s laughable. I know that William Mason has always had a bit of a problem when the chips are down, but this Saturday, you better be ready. Cameron can run around and be all annoying. Jack here will cancel her out in a hurry.”

Jack gulps as Gable doesn’t even notice.

Gable: “And Billy-boy…you and I will have that match and you’ll know this time, that Tommy Valentine won’t need to come out to save you from a loss. I won’t even need to apparently attack you and your immediately family on the floor. I’ll do what I do in that ring…and that’s win…BAY-BAY!”

Jessica smiles.

Jessica: “Thank you Gable.”

Jessica turns to the camera.

Jessica: “Back to you Jim.”

We cut back to the panel and the studio. We focus on Jim Dawson.

Dawson: “Thank you Jessica. And we’re about ready to head back to Houston. When we return, Jonathan Knots and Adam Sharper at ringside. Breakdown returns with more!”

The camera pans out before we cut to a shot of the inside of the Toyota Center to see Jonathan Knots going to the announce table as fans start to return to their seats and the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

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

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

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

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

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

Sharper: “Welcome back inside the Toyota Center here in Houston, Texas. Adam Sharper here now joined by Jonathan Knots and talk about the big night we have tonight.”

Knots: “Well we just had one massive brawl. People getting into everyone’s business. The World Tag Champs, Coalition and Silas’ World caught in the middle and on top of this all, we may have a new World Champion tonight!”

Sharper: “Inside that steel cage, hanging over our ring, CHBK will challenge Shaun Cruze for the World Title.”

Knots: “Talk about a hell of a coup. We could see history made right here! Right tonight! And two of the best are going to go at it.”

Sharper: “Every week since Taking Hold of the Flame, the Rise to Greatness main event has changed. Will it change tonight with a new World Champion?”

The arena goes dark. The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is seen with a roar. Fireworks blast off the entrance as “Who's Next” by Porcelain Black plays throughout the arena. A few moments pass before Regan Street walks out from the back. She looks around as heads to the ring.

Sharper: “Regan Street has a date tonight.”

Knots: “Or so she hopes. Shilo Valiant sent her another message. Let’s see if the guy shows.”

Sharper: “We have not seen Shilo Valiant in person since late 2013.”

Regan Street hops onto the apron and then looks into the ring before stepping in. She walks back over across the ring and is handed a microphone. She takes it and walks over to the middle of the ring and looks around.

Regan: “It seems like CHBK is up to his old crap and my sister Mikaela is getting dragged down with it…I hope you realize what it’s going to all lead to…and CHBK, I can’t wait to watch you get what you deserve but I’m not out here for you. I’m out here because I’ve been love letters from someone else. Now, Shilo…”

The crowd cheers a bit. Regan pauses for a moment.

Regan: “I know that you seem to have taken a liking in me, but I already have a boyfriend, but I did hear how you wanted to give me a chance to show the world that I should be in the running for a title shot and that’s something I can get behind. So Shilo…you asked if I wanted a date tonight…I’m in this ring…Where are you?!”

The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Here we go!”

Regan looks around, trying to look for masks or anything similar. Just then, the lights go out. The crowd roars. Cell phones can be seen turning on as the darkness remains for a few moments.

“NECRO!”

The crowd erupts in cheers as the darkness remains for a few moments longer before the lights return and we see Shilo Valiant standing in front of Regan Street. The crowd cheers as Regan Street and Shilo Valiant lock eyes. Shilo also has a microphone in his hand.

Sharper: “And there he is! Shilo Valiant is here!”

The crowd continues to cheer as Regan Street just looks at him.

Shilo: “Ask and ye shall receive!”

The crowd cheers as Shilo looks around. Regan just focuses on him.

Shilo: “How nice of you to take me up on my date? Sorry for the lack of flowers and some violin music this week, but frankly, I figured my offer was something that would more than make up for it.”

Regan: “Damn right. And if you want that match we never got thanks to one slimy Canadian, I’m more than happy to have it at Rise to Greatness!”

Shilo: “Excellent!”

Shilo claps his hands and walks around the ring a bit before turning back to Regan. Regan still doesn’t take her eyes off of Shilo.

Shilo: “Too bad that I already know how this story is going to end.”

Regan goes to speak. Shilo quickly cuts her off.

Shilo: “No, no, no! See, I’m not talking about your inevitable defeat or mine. That would just be unnecessarily cocky of me. I’m talking about the fact that even when you came out here, you talked about someone else first. CHBK…”

Regan: “Awww…is Shilo jealous?”

Shilo: “Not at all. I just know that CHBK has that way of getting into people’s heads. Like yours. And I sensed some initial hesitancy before coming out here. And frankly, there’s no fun in having to deal with a fifty year old running down and kicking your ass, screwing up the party! You want to have the party when your mommy and daddy are out of town, and you have a big pool and everyone just has a grand ole time! With booze and streamers and pools and piñatas! Every party needs a piñata and you don’t want to it not to be beaten open before your parents come home!”

Regan: “I’m done with CHBK. He can go screw himself for all I care. I’m done letting him ruin my career.”

Shilo: “A great, noble statement. I know. You want to prove to the world you want to be Champion. But I wanted something out of this too….I wanted the unknown. I mean, no one knows what would happen if you and I were to compete. Maybe we’d blow the world away with our sheer awesomeness and put on a show the likes of which had never been seen….or more than likely, CHBK may run down to the ring and go after you. Or even more likely…you’ll be waiting for him to come down to the ring and screw you over. I mean, he had said he’ll hold you back. I can listen too.”

Shilo pauses before turning around, shaking his head and spinning around.

Shilo: “That’s not good enough. And you even saying so, come on! That’s not the Regan I know! It’s like the kitty’s claws have been ripped out. She speaks in words! Come on! Plus, I don’t want you settling. That’s no fun. I want Regan Street and I want her entirely focused on me….I mean that’s what’s best for entertainment….I think I’ve heard a version of that before somewhere…Hmmm…well, either way, I’ll give you your opportunity…but you need to be all in.”

Regan: “If you want me to just kick your ass, you don’t need to worry Shilo. I’ll be happy to do that at Rise to Greatness! That you don’t need to worry about. I’m ALWAYS wanting to do that!”

Shilo: “Oh I don’t doubt that. I’m ready to let you kick my ass! But I want Regan Street focused on just that.”

Regan: “God…you and the boss thinkin’ I’m distracted-“

Shilo: “Then remove the distraction. Come on…give us all what we want!”

Regan: “Me kicking your ass!”

Shilo: “Soon to come if you want. But Regan…I’m giving you what you want. I want to face you as well. I don’t like that blemish of Apocalypse…it’s an unknown. I need to know…but I don’t like reruns…But that’s what I think will happen.”

Regan just looks at Shilo.

Shilo: “Cat got your tongue? Oh…a pun. I love that…..You know what you need to do though Regan…let’s take things out of syndication…cancel the rerun…and let’s see make it all ENTERTAINING! NECRO!”

Shilo throws his arms out as “Sin with a Grin” starts to play. Shilo then drops the microphone to the mat before backing up and turning to the ropes and dropping down to the floor. He keeps his arms outstretched as he continues on his way to the back. Regan just watches him before we then see a man, dressed like Shilo walking past Shilo as she walks to the back. Regan looks confused. Shilo nods at the man dressed like him. He has a package in his hands and reaches the ring before sliding it into the ring. He smiles through the mask as Shilo Valiant goes through the curtain. The doppleganger turns and much less emphatically returns to the back. Regan looks at the package oddly.

Sharper: “What the hell? Shilo just in the ring. And now a doppleganger dropping off another package.”

Knots: “Giving Regan enough masks that she’s set for Halloween. Even she’s looking at this oddly.”

Sharper: “Valiant has returned to the back. Regan looks confused and Regan walks over to the box. She looks at it and flips off the lid. Another mask is inside. She looks at it and turns it around to see an unfolded piece of paper that reads “Break his heart.” Regan just throws it down.

Sharper: “Well obviously, Shilo Valiant is willing to give Regan that huge match at Rise to Greatness, but he knows what we all do. CHBK will be watching.”

Knots: “Yeah…and Regan should just return to him, break it off with Helms and voila, problem solved!”

Sharper: “I doubt that…I really do.”

Regan Street just watches the other Shilo walk off before shaking her head as we cut backstage.

We see a shot backstage that sees Shaun Cruze just nodding before sharing a quick handshake. The crowd boos seeing him. The man he shakes hands with backs up, and we quickly realizes that Silas Mason.

Sharper: “Silas and Cruze meeting up…”

Knots: “Said they did earlier.”

Silas: “Yer title’s gonna be safe.”

Cruze: “You realize we may need to step off of Syren tonight.”

Silas: “If we got a chance, we’ll take it. If not…Saturday…”

Silas smiles and turns and walks off as Cruze smirks and turns and heads off in an opposite direction as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

We return to Breakdown and see Regan Street backstage, storming into her locker room. David Helms follows her.

Regan: “What the hell was that?”

Helms: “Look…”

Regan: “No…I’m done with him. And Shilo wants me to go after him.”

Kayl: “He’s right though.”

Kayl walks into the room.

Kayl: “He’s right in thinking CHBK will just ruin that. He’ll do what my cousin did last summer.”

Regan: “Well then…”

Helms: “I’ll destroy him then before the match. I’ve already put in more than two challenges and I’ve even asked Mr. D before this show…the Board-“

Kayl: “He’s got the veto.”

Helms: “Then we’ll just take him out.”

Kayl: “You know that helps him-“

Regan: “Stop….I’ll take care of it…Shilo wants an affirmation…I’ll give him one.”

Regan then sits down on the couch in the locker room and leans forward, taking a deep breath as we cut back to the ring.

Toshiro Kageyoshi vs. Tristan Bates

Toshiro slowly walks out from the waiting area while the opening rift of "This Time's For Real" By Ill Nino is played, looking out to the many screaming fans. Touching his index finger to his head as the song moves, swiftly extending said arm to point to the crowd. Continuing to the ring, he sprints now, and as the chorus begins, Kageyoshi grabs the ropes, flipping himself over the top rope, landing on his feet. The song continues loudly over the speakers while he jumps into the center of the ring. He looks to the many bright spotlights illuminating his body as the instrumental ends, and the end of the song is near. Looking back down, he turns to face where the opponent will soon enter.

Sharper: “Kageyoshi ready to go. He’s coming off a huge win a couple of weeks ago against Doomsday.”

Knots: “Beat him so bad he’s not been heard from!”

Sharper: “Knocked him down with those knees and just think if he can do that tonight against Tristan Bates, the undefeated Tristan Bates.”

The lights go out in the arena and almost immediately a piano starts to play the opening keys to “Dark Psychotic” as Tristan Bates laugh blends in on the PA system with the music. Bates makes his way down to the rings, black trenchcoat covering his body, with a hook over his head, covering much of his face, all that is visible is the mouth and beard of Tristan Bates. Bates slowly makes his way down to the ring. Tristan doesn’t crack a smile, doesn’t look around, just focuses on the ring, as the dark music continues to play. Bates slowly climbs the stairs and into the ring and finally takes the trenchcoat off, revealing a sinister smile…

Sharper: “That sadistic smile…”

Knots: “And frankly, he can do whatever he want still. No one has stopped him.”

Sharper: “Havoc Warrior Exodus set him back a couple of weeks ago. And Tristan took note. Last week, he called him out.”

The bell sounds and Tristan runs at Kageyoshi. Kageyoshi moves out of the way as Tristan stops at the corner. He turns and smiles and Kageyoshi runs over and goes for a high knee. He connects and nails Tristan with a forearm shot and then another and another. He then throws him down out of the corner and dives onto him for the pin.

Tristan pushes him off. Both get up and Toshiro Kageyoshi runs into the ropes. He bounces off and Tristan goes to catch him, only for Kageyoshi to slide through Tristan’s legs. Tristan turns around and Kageyoshi jumps up for a kick, but Tristan catches him before throwing him overhead with a leg capture suplex. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Just the power! He caught him and throw him overhead!”

Knots: “And that’s where the dream comes crashing down with him.”

Kageyoshi rolls over and starts to get up. Tristan walks over and clubs him in the back. He spins him around and headbutts him. Kageyoshi falls over to the corner. Tristan nails him in the ribs. He rears back and punches him again. He then turns and hip tosses him out of the corner. Kageyoshi starts to get up and Tristan runs over and shoulders him down. He then jumps up and hits an elbow drop. The crowd ohs. Tristan Bates goes for the lateral press.

Kageyoshi kicks out. Tristan gets up and grabs him and lifts him up. He then turns and throws him face first into the turnbuckle. Tristan just grabs him and smiles before whipping him across the ring. Tristan turns and runs after Kageyoshi and goes for a splash, but Kageyoshi gets his knees up. Tristan staggers out. Kageyoshi pulls himself up and he dives off and nails Tristan in the jaw with a knee.

Sharper: “Another knee! Kageyoshi knows how to throw them big.”

Knots: “And he’s got Bates reeling! That’s what’s amazing!”

Tristan falls to a knee. Kageyoshi backs up to the corner and he then runs forward and takes Bates down with a clothesline. He goes for the pin.

Tristan pushes him off. Tristan rolls over and starts to get up and Kageyoshi grabs him and elbows him in the back. He then turns and whips him into the ropes. Tristan bounces off and Kageyoshi jumps up and hits a dropkick. The crowd cheers. Toshiro Kageyoshi then goes for the pin.

Tristan pushes him off again. Kageyoshi then grabs him and mounts him before nailing him with a hard right and then another, but Tristan then catches it and nails him with a shot to the throat. Kageyoshi falls back. Tristan starts to get up.

Sharper: “And just like that, Tristan comes back, as if from the dead!”

Knots: “And he doesn’t waste any offense. One shot! One shot to the throat and he gets that break.”

Tristan pulls himself up as Kageyoshi turns and Tristan nails him again in the throat. He then scoops him up and hits a backbreaker. He then looks at Kageyoshi before backing up to the ropes, bouncing off and hitting a splash onto Kageyoshi. The crowd ohs and Bates hooks the leg.

Kageyoshi gets his shoulder up. Tristan grabs him by the head and lifts him up before clubbing him hard in the back. He then rears back and clubs him again. He then turns and whips him into the ropes. Kageyoshi bounces off and just then he jumps up and counters with a tornado DDT.

Sharper: “Big counter! Big DDT and this young man may do it again!”

Knots: “Where the hell does he find it from? He takes an ass-kicking and still fights back!”

Tristan rolls over and starts to get up as Kageyoshi turns and walks over to him and grabs him and goes for his clinch. He rears back for a knee, but Tristan blocks it and smiles before spinning him down and leg screwing him to the mat. Kageyoshi rolls to the floor. Bates gets up and walks over to the ropes. He then exits to the floor. Kageyoshi turns and jumps up and knees Bates again. (1) Bates falls back to the ring announcer’s table as the crowd roars.

Sharper: “Again! He knees Bates and cuts him off!”

Kageyoshi then walks forward. (2) He grabs Bates and Bates suddenly nails him in the throat with the ring bell. The crowd ohs and Kageyoshi falls back and down to the mat. Bates throws the ring bell down and the referee calls for the bell, ending the match. Bates walks over and grabs Kageyoshi and lifts him up before rolling him into the ring. Bates looks at him and rolls in.

Sharper: “Bates disqualifying himself! Kageyoshi down! The ring bell to throat!”

Knots: “And he’s not done. He’s got him in the ring!”

Bates then rolls into the ring and walks over to Kageyoshi. Kageyoshi stirs and Bates grabs him and just then “Prepare for the Attack” plays. The crowd cheers as Havoc Warrior Exodus runs down from the back. Bates just smiles as he throws Kageyoshi down. Exodus runs down to the ring and slides in. He gets up and Exodus goes for a clothesline and connects. The crowd roars. Bates gets back up and Exodus hits another clothesline. Bates gets back down and Exodus turns and walks over to him and grabs him, but Bates then shoves him back and nails him in the throat with a throat thrust. Exodus stumbles and falls to a knee before Bates boots him in the face. He then turns and Kageyoshi gets up and Bates turns and quickly falls out of the ring, rolling through to his feet and backs up, smiling. Kageyoshi just looks at him.

Sharper: “And Kageyoshi now stepping up to prevent Exodus from getting attacked further.”

Knots: “Yeah, but this time, Bates was ready. No hero tonight Exodus!”

Bates smiles as he continues to back up. Kageyoshi watches him as Exodus gets up and glares at him.

“Rescue Me” plays and the Breakdown logo comes up. We then see a shot of Donovan Kayl and then a shot of Chris Cannon.

Sharper: “Big match, we saw him arrive in the locker room earlier. Chris Cannon has been rehired by SCW.”

Knots: “Yeah and he has his return tonight…but why is Cannon back?”

Sharper: “Big challenge for him in Donovan Kayl. Kayl, Cannon, next!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns as we see Dylan Cent talking to one of the crew members backstage when we then see Thomas Watson running up from behind and cuffing him in the back of the head. Cent falls over and rolls over.

Thomas: “How does that feel, huh? Like gettin’ attacked from behind!”

Thomas stomps him in the back of the head. Crystal Ward turns and calls for help before Ryan Watson then comes into view and Cent shoves Thomas back, but Ryan kicks him in the ribs. Cent rolls over and Thomas grabs him and lifts him up before turning and throwing him into the wall. Cent falls over as officials start to come into view. Ryan Watson bolts in one direction as Thomas heads off in the other. The crowd boos as Cent rolls over, holding his head in pain.

Donovan Kayl vs. Chris Cannon

"Epic" by Faith No More starts to play as the spotlight focuses on the top of the ramp. Immediately, the crowd rise to their feet in a raucous ovation.

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

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

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

After turning his head to survey the entire crowd, he turns to face the front of the ramp, beginning to walk out towards the ring.[/i]

You want it all but you can't have it

Kayl keeps his eyes focused on the ring ahead, and with a stoic gaze in his eyes, slaps the hands of a few fans at ringside.

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

Once he gets to the bottom of the ramp, Donovan pulls himself up onto the apron, walking over to the corner. He climbs up onto the second rope, looking out over the crowd, until the second chorus hits...

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

Kayl throws his arms up for the roaring crowd, shouting out something that's just impossible to hear outside of the first couple of rows nearby. He hops the top rope into the ring, moving to the middle where he spins once, dropping to a knee and shooting his arms out. He drops his head as the crowd showers the ring with streamers, cascading down around him as he looks at the ring under his knee before raising his head upward slowly.

Sharper: “Donovan Kayl in action tonight and this is an interesting match.”

Knots: “Yeah. Chris Cannon is here. He’s in the building. He’s been reinstated, but we don’t have a clue how. Something is not right here.”

Sharper: “I don’t know what to say. Kissinger and Cannon were seen at the SCW HQ last week. Silas knows nothing and even has forced Chris to stay backstage…”

The big screen above the entrance springs into life as the lights darken, the only image we see is that of the burning 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.

“Silas World Presents...”

.CHRIS CANNON.

The opening guitar to Prometheus by Audio Machine hit’s over the P.A system next with an explosion of sound. There’s a sudden pause and then a spotlight shines down onto the stage as Chris walks out from the back. He wears his all black robe with gold trim with the hood over his head looking down at the stage as Phillips begins the introduction.

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, introducing at this time. Hailing from Orlando, Florida... He weighed in tonight at two-hundred and thirty-five pounds, he is representing Silas’ World, CHRIS CANNON!!”

The crowd roars with a mixed reaction, some cheer for the British superstar while others boo him, but neither fazes him as he begins to walk down towards the ring with his brother following behind. Cannon stops and turns to look at one fan who is extending a hand but he turns back and continues walking down the ramp and stops before extending his arms. He slides the robe off before placing it on the apron. Cannon runs towards and leaps onto the apron before walking towards a corner and climbing the outside of it.

He turns to look at the Perfect World symbol that burns on the big screen and then down to his brother who nods. Chris then leaping into the ring and loosens up his shoulders as he gets ready for the match to begin as the music begins to quieten down...

Sharper: “Well Chris Cannon is coming up still as part of Silas’ World. I don’t know what to think.”

Knots: “No one does. But as I said, something isn’t right. The only good thing is that Cannon can knock Kayl down to size.”

Chris looks at Donovan as the bell sounds. Cannon comes out of the corner and looks over to Kayl. Kayl comes out too and the two jockey a bit before lunging and grappling. Kayl turns into a side headlock. Cannon holds on and pulls Kayl back and into the ropes. He fires him off. Kayl bounces off the ropes and Cannon steps forward and shoulders him down. Kayl looks up before turning as Cannon runs into the ropes. Cannon hops over him. Kayl gets up and Cannon bounces off the other side and Kayl arm drags him down. Cannon gets up and Kayl takes him down with a side headlock takedown. Cannon turns into a headscissors. Kayl kicks out of it. Both get up and Cannon elbows Kayl in the jaw. Kayl falls back to the corner as the crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Hard elbow. Kayl knocked back and Cannon presses on.”

Knots: “That’s what you do. Take that shot in there. Bust him up.”

Chris walks over and nails him with a hard right and then another. He grabs Kayl and pulls him out and into his knee. Kayl flips over and to this back. Cannon follows up with the pin.

Kayl kicks out. Chris turns and grabs Kayl and drags him up. He then goes for a back suplex. Kayl backflips through. He then shoves Chris forward. Chris bounces off the ropes and Kayl jumps up and dropkicks him down. He goes for the pin.

Chris kicks out. Both men get up and Kayl kicks him in the ribs. Chris grimaces and Kayl gutwrenches him over with a suplex.

Sharper: “Kayl hoisting Cannon up. Gutwrench suplex has Cannon down, but no pin.”

Knots: “Stupid move there.”

Sharper: “Instead, here comes a dragon sleeper. Going to control him another way.”

Kayl hooks Cannon’s head and pulls him up. Cannon reaches around as Kayl tries to move from the ropes. Cannon however grabs Kayl and spins around and then lifts Kayl up and throws him forward. Kayl lands on his feet. Cannon goes for a clothesline, but Kayl ducks. Cannon turns and Kayl hits a back elbow. He then runs into the ropes. He bounces off and Cannon steps up and nails him with a dropkick. Kayl rolls over and starts to get up and Cannon hoists him up before turning and hitting a Samoan roll. He then reaches back for the pin.

Kayl counters with a crucifix pin.

Cannon rolls through. He then hooks the leg.

Kayl kicks out. Both get up and Kayl goes for a clothesline, but Cannon ducks and then lifts Kayl up in a waistlock. He just holds him up before throwing him back with a vicious release German suplex. Kayl rolls over, to his stomach, holding his head and neck in pain.

Sharper: “Big German and Kayl is in a bad way.”

Knots: “Well in one sense, he doesn’t need to worry about other things pissing him off. Cannon is owning him right now.”

Sharper: “And we know Kayl has been openly critical of CHBK and what he’ll be involved in later. Silas too.”

Cannon then turns and grabs Kayl. He hooks him up and snaps him over with a suplex. He holds on and gets back up before throwing Kayl over with a second snap suplex. He then holds on again and gets him back up and goes for a brainbuster, but Kayl kicks his legs and lands behind Cannon before hitting a hangman’s neckbreaker. Cannon rolls over in pain. He starts to get up and Kayl jumps up and nails him with an enziguri kick to the head. Cannon falls over. Kayl then turns and crawl over to the corner. He glances back before climbing up to the top rope. He looks back at Cannon and then dives off and hits a flip dive onto Cannon. The crowd cheers. Kayl turns and goes for the pin.

Cannon gets his shoulder up.

Sharper: “Nearfall! Kayl nearly had him, but Cannon kicked out.”

Knots: “For someone who has been beating people to death outside of arenas for three months. Cannon’s not doing half bad!”

Kayl rolls over and gets up and Cannon stirs and Kayl kicks him in the ribs. He then turns and whips him into the ropes. Cannon bounces off the ropes and Kayl spins around Cannon on the rebound and grabs him in a waistlock. Cannon however elbows out of it. Kayl stumbles back to the ropes. Cannon turns and Kayl nails him with a back elbow. Cannon staggers back and Kayl turns only for Cannon to suddenly nail Kayl with the C4. The crowd ohs. Cannon then goes for the pin.

The crowd roars. Chris Cannon looks down at Kayl and gets up. He has his arm raised as he gets up. He looks around as the crowd gives a mixed reaction. Cannon turns and nods before exiting the ring.

Sharper: “And Chris Cannon returns to the ring and is successful! However he’s back, he’s gotten in done.”

Knots: “Yeah and he just drilled Kayl with that spear!”

Sharper: “But Silas World is far from done tonight. A lot more still to come tonight, including that huge tag team match and the World Title on the line inside a steel cage!”

Cannon starts to head to the back as Kayl stirs and we cut backstage.

Backstage we see Ryan Watson smiling after helping Thomas Watson a little while ago and he just walks over towards his locker room before looking up.

Ryan: “Well I’ll be…that’s a helluva sight…”

Ryan steps forward as the camera pans out to show Lucas Knight standing there. He just smiles before the two high-five before leaning in and quickly embracing.

Lucas: “Was in the area. Have a bit of free time. Figured I’d show up and see how things are going.”

Ryan: “Always fine.”

Lucas: “How’s Kennedy?”

Ryan: “Distracted tonight….But that’s cause the boss is muckin’ wit her…put ‘er in the ring wit Lyman, the bastard.”

Lucas: “Shame. See you’re havin’ fun.”

Ryan: “Always…hope I’m keepin’ ya proud.”

Lucas: “Well…”

Lucas then smacks Ryan. The crowd ohs.

Ryan: “Oy! What the-“

Lucas: “You cost yourself the World Tag Team Titles…What the hell is wrong with you?”

Ryan: “Look we-“

Lucas: “I don’t care about your damn excuses…That was the dumbest thing I’ve seen. OOC never got a shot…and ya demand em and get them and flush em like that…Ya may be a gobshite Ry…but you’ve become a bit of a disrespectful piss.”

Lucas shakes his head and walks off as Ryan just looks shocked. The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Breakdown returns and we open up to a shot inside the arena and cut down to ringside to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the announce table.

Sharper: “Welcome everyone back here to Breakdown. It’s been a newsworthy night to say the least. And we’re about to pass along some more news.”

Knots: “That we are. It’s becoming a tradition. The SCW Hall of Fame is going to get a bit bigger.”

Sharper: “Time to announce the first inductee to the SCW Hall of Fame, Class of 2014. Here you are...”

The scene fades to black.

We see a shot of CHBK down in a heap. This is followed by a shot of Josh Lesnar down as well. We then cut to a shot of Phoenix hitting the Into the Ashes on CHBK. This is followed by a shot of Brent Randall hitting the Elevator DDT on Josh Lesnar. The crowd can be heard booing before we see a shot of Phoenix standing on the top rope before we see him hitting the Flight of the Phoenix onto CHBK through the announce table. This is followed by a shot of Phoenix holding the World Championship over his head. We then see shot of the Mercenaries standing in the ring before showing a shot of Phoenix and Brent Randall smiling as they look at one another. This is followed by a shot of Brent Randall covering CHBK.

Johnson: “I don’t believe it! He did it! He’s the new SCW Champion!”

We see Brent Randall holding the title over his head. We see Phoenix raising his arm as the smile. This is followed by a shot of Brent Randall holding the title in the face of Jason O’Grady before showing Phoenix hitting CHBK with brass knuckles. We see Brent Randall hitting the Elevator DDT on someone else before showing Phoenix standing with Sasha Desoubrais and smiling as they stand over CHBK. We see Brent Randall nailing The Phantom with a steel chair before showing him clotheslining Chris Renegade. We then cut back to a shot of Phoenix standing with the World Title and smiling. This is followed by a shot of the Mercenaries as a whole standing in the ring at the end of Apocalypse 2004.

The scene fades to black for a moment before coming back up with a shot of Brent Randall and Phoenix, Class of 2014, SCW Hall of Fame.

The still remains on the screen as we cut to show the crowd cheering.

Sharper: “Talk about a well-deserved entry. Two former World Champions, leaders of arguably the most influential faction in SCW history.”

Knots: “Infamous even patterned themselves on them several years ago. Phoenix. Brent Randall. The Mercenaries are now in the Hall of Fame!”

The still remains on the big screen in the arena before we cut backstage.

We see a shot of Liberation, Brayden Walker and Aaron D’Aubergine watching the monitor in the back. Brayden turns to Aaron.

Brayden: “Well…I guess that’s just confirming more of the same. Reward those who pillage and cheat. Reward those who won’t just compete.”

Aaron: “They did a lot though.”

Brayden: “They did…but they did it by attacking and destroying people. Going after CHBK’s family. Attacking and injuring Jason Zero and Josh Hudson.”

Aaron: “Drove Greg Cherry nuts. Influenced Infamous.”

Brayden: “Nevermind if those people may deserve it today….they didn’t deserve it then.”

Aaron: “And they’re being rewarded.”

Brayden shakes his head. We then hear a chuckle. Brayden turns as does Aaron D’Aubergine as Ravyn Taylor walks into view.

Ravyn: “Please…you really are all on that holier than thou crap.”

Aaron: “It’s not crap-“

Ravyn: “Yeah, yeah….you believe in competition. Do you know what I believe in?”

Brayden and Aaron just look at her.

Ravyn: “I believe in winning and doing whatever necessary to do so. I mean…I have used my own daughter apparently…I’ve hired strippers….I’ve even stood out in that ring in a thong. I got my opponent counted out to ensure a rematch.”

Brayden: “And you’re despicable. I can’t wait until Merrick Wiseman puts you in your place for good.”

Ravyn: “That’s the problem. The sport rewards bad behaviour. CHBK is getting a title shot. I’m getting another US Title shot. Shaun Cruze is World Champion. Silas World and Coalition have everyone looking over their shoulder. And you two….barely making a dent. I wonder if you’ll get the hint when I’m US Champion again. Probably not, but worth a shot. Maybe you’ll get lucky. Wiseman may prevail. But if you bet…would you bet against someone willing to do ANYTHING to win?”

Ravyn smirks as she walks off. Brayden and Aaron just watch her leave and shake their head.

Aaron: “Unbelievable.”

The scene then changes to the SCW interview area. We see Marisa Condolesa standing by with William Mason and Cameron Chase. The crowd boos seeing them. William just smirks.

Condolesa: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am here with William Mason and Cameron Chase. And William, Gable gave some comments-“

Chase: “Ahem?”

Condolesa: “Yes?”

Chase: “You’re addressing both of us, not just him.”

Condolesa: “Cameron, William, Gable made some comments-“

Chase: “And he’s horribly full of crap! William and I proved to the world we are the winners in SCW and this Saturday, you’re going to show it all over again, aren’t you?”

Mason: “Of course. See, I don’t care what he thinks. He may come at me and think he’s going to win, but I’m not going to let that happen. Every challenge that has come up to us, we’ve knocked it down. We’re breaking barriers and it’s all for one big challenge…the World Title after Rise to Greatness. And we’re already looking at Rise to Greatness. We’ve got our next challenger. We’ve already determined the target and we’re going to make sure that their own title hopes are going to go out with a fizzle…and not with a BANG….Gable…you’re just the speed bump until then. See you Saturday.”

Mason turns to Cameron and smiles and the two walk off and the crowd boos.

“Rescue Me” plays and the Breakdown logo comes up. We see a shot of Tommy Valentine and Simon Lyman and then a shot of Angelica Jones and Brittany Lohan before showing both.

Sharper: “Interesting interview to say the least…and from that, big tag team match next.”

Knots: “Some revenge for Silas’ World. Maybe a chance to blow off some steam.”

Sharper: “Lohan and Jones team up to face off against Valentine and Lyman, next!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

Tommy Valentine & Simon Lyman vs. Angelica Jones & Brittany Lohan

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.

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 partner.

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine about to team up with Simon Lyman here. And interesting situation largely precipitated by Simon Lyman helping him out several weeks back.”

Knots: “Well, if you’re Simon Lyman, you need to get involved in everyone’s stuff. It’s the only way he’ll be remembered when Kennedy Street destroys that deviant this Saturday in San Antonio.”

Sharper: “Simon Lyman to face off against Kennedy Street at Supreme Saturday: .”

Knots: “Eyes on the prize tonight though. It’s an asskicking courtesy of Silas Mason!”

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 lyrics 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?

Sharper: “Here you see Breakdown, two weeks ago. Angelica Jones attacking Tommy Valentine, ending his match against Brittany Lohan when he was about to win.”

Knots: “Yeah and then look! Simon gets involved for no reason!”

BREAKDOWN – June 11, 2014

Jones stomps away at Tommy before grabbing him and dragging him over to the corner. She stomps him in the ribs and then again and again. The crowd boos some more as the official calls for the bell again to try and get Jones off. Lohan stirs and starts to get up and Angelica yells at her to get up. Lohan grabs at the ropes before the crowd roars as Simon Lyman runs out from the back. He runs down to the ring before sliding into the ring. Lohan quickly turns and bails out of the ring as Angelica does too. Simon Lyman gets up and looks around as the crowd cheers. Jones and Lohan head back to the rampway. Simon Lyman walk over to Tommy and extend his hand. He pulls him up as Tommy winces a bit. He then raises Tommy’s hand as the crowd cheers. His music starts to play as Tommy nods a bit before presumably thanking Simon Lyman. Lyman just nods as Lohan and Jones head to the back.

We cut back to the ring to see Simon Lyman turning to Tommy and the two talking a bit as the crowd cheers. As "Tonight" winds down as Simon turns to the entrance way and Tommy stretches out.

Sharper: “This will be interesting watching these two team. Both have made their tag team success known with other partners.”

Knots: “Yeah, David Helms for Tommy Valentine and Simon’s left hand on Kennedy’s breast for him!”

Sharper: “Stop it. You know as well as I do that Kennedy Street grabbed his hand and moved it there.”

Knots: “She was traumatized!”

Sharper: “Yeah, so much so that she continued to do it with a smile on her face.”

A few moments pass before ‘I am done pretending’ 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.” “Light’s Out” starts to play.

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

Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically with Angelica following her. Lohan is taking slow, calculated, but powerful steps towards the ring. Her icy glare is so fixated on the ring that it would seem to appear that she doesn’t realize that the arena is nearly sold out. The way that she looks right now it might as well be empty for all she cares. Angelica goes down the entire way, cracking her knuckles before looking at the ring. She then rolls into the ring and gets up as Tommy and Simon watch her. Lohan just paces around the ring. Simon watches Brittany as she looks in the ring with some disdain, going around the entire ring before going over to the steel steps and then walking up them. Angelica smiles as Lohan then enters the ring. She looks at Angelica before run over as the crowd roars. Lohan kicks Simon in the ribs as Angelica goes after Tommy and nails him with a hard forearm and then a hard right.

Sharper: “And here we go! Jones and Lohan going right for Valentine and Lyman!”

Knots: “They’ve come to remind both why you don’t mess with them or Silas’ World!”

The bell sounds. Jones grabs Tommy and throws him over to the Silas World corner, driving him face first. Lohan however nails Simon with a series of hard rights and lefts in the corner they were in as the crowd boos. Jones leans in and starts to choke Tommy as Lohan then turns and grabs Simon and turns before throwing him out of the ring. The referee tells Lohan to get out as Lohan smirks and Jones backs up and Lohan turns and runs at Tommy and spears him in the corner. The crowd ohs. Lohan then exits the ring as Jones walks back over to Tommy and snapmares him out of the corner. She then kicks him hard in the back before tagging in Lohan. Lohan enters and stomps Tommy in the face before stomping him again.

Sharper: “Lohan continuing the pressure and it’s again interesting that it’s not the Hollow in this match, but Jones and Lohan.”

Knots: “Well that’s part of the genius of Silas. He keeps people guessing and there’s clearly some history between these two. Good history. They both just are beating the hell out of Valentine!”

Tommy rolls over and Lohan grabs him and drags him up and throws him face first into the neutral corner. Lohan then kicks him in the ribs before kicking him again. She turns and whips him across the ring. Tommy bounces out of the opposite turnbuckle and Lohan lifts him up for a back drop. Tommy spins through and lands behind her. Lohan goes for a back elbow, but Tommy ducks. Lohan turns back and Tommy hits a spinning heel kick. Lohan gets back up and Tommy hits a front dropkick. He then gets back up and runs to the corner, jumping up to the middle rope. Lohan gets up and Tommy goes for a twisting double axe handle, but Lohan nails him in the ribs. Tommy falls to his knees as the crowd boos. Lohan then lifts him up and hits a backbreaker before going for the pin.

Tommy kicks out. Lohan turns and grabs him by the head before elbowing him in the back of the head. Tommy falls over to the ropes. Simon reaches out, looking to be ready for a tag.

Sharper: “Hard elbow and Lohan has given very little room for Tommy to breathe.”

Knots: “Just manhandling him. It’s great. Silas is really the affirmation of Woman Power.”

Sharper: “That’s one way to look at it for sure.”

Lohan clubs him again. She turns and whips him into the ropes. Tommy bounces off the ropes and Lohan runs forward and knees him in the ribs. Tommy flips over. Lohan goes for the pin.

Tommy kicks out. Lohan then grabs Tommy by the hair and drags him up and throws him into the Silas’ World corner. Lohan kicks him in the ribs before tagging in Angelica. Lohan smiles as she exits and Jones just smacks Tommy with disdain. Tommy suddenly nails her with a forearm before elbowing Lohan. Tommy nails Angelica with another forearm before elbowing Lohan and then he runs out, ducking down, avoiding a hair grab, before spinning around. He kicks Angelica in the ribs before throwing her over with a release northern lights suplex. He then rolls over and dives over and tags in Simon Lyman. Lyman climbs up to the top rope as the crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Lyman in and going to the top!”

Knots: “Damn it! He got the tag!”

Jones gets up and Lyman dives off and hits a crossbody. He then pops up as Lohan enters and boots Lohan in the side of the head and Lohan falls over and down to the floor. Angelica Jones gets back up and Lyman scoops her up and hits a ribbreaker. He goes for the pin.

Jones kicks out. Lohan then gets back up and starts to enter again. Lyman gets up and runs over and forearms her in the side of the head. Lohan falls to a knee onto the apron. Lyman turns and kicks Angelica in the ribs. He turns and whips her into the ropes. Angelica bounces off the ropes and Lyman goes for a clothesline. Angelica ducks and bounces off the other side before jumping up for a hurricanrana, but Lyman holds on and then locks in a single leg crab. The crowd roars. Lyman pulls back.

Sharper: “Caught Angelica! Single leg crab!”

Knots: “Oh God! Center of the ring too! This is bad! This is bad!”

Lyman keeps holding on and Lohan enters again. Tommy does too, but Lohan nails Simon in the side. He falls over and Tommy jumps over Angelica and Lyman and nails Lohan with a flying forearm. Both then roll out of the ring. Lyman starts to get up as Angelica does too and the official tells Tommy to get back to his corner. Angelica rakes Lyman in the eyes. She then quickly grabs Lyman and hits a double arm DDT. The crowd ohs. Angelica then rolls over and runs into the ropes. She jumps to the middle rope and hits the Divine Impact. The crowd boos. Jones hooks the leg.

Lyman gets his shoulder up as the crowd cheers. Tommy lets out a sigh as he returns to his corner. Lyman rolls over and Angelica gets up. Lohan just demands the tag. Angelica turns and hits a leg drop on Lyman before turning and dragging her over nearer to the corner.

Sharper: “Lohan wants in. Simon Lyman stopped by Jones. Nearfall not enough and now Lohan going to extract some punishment.”

Knots: “And after all of Lyman’s shots to her. I’m sure she’s ready. She just better look out. Simon Lyman may get handsy!”

Sharper: “Stop it!”

Knots: “True. Brittany Lohan is no Kennedy.”

Sharper: “Good lord. I hope that Kennedy got you a t-shirt and a coffee with how hard your promoting her side.”

Knots: “They are facts, Adam. Like how the Houston Texans suck. It’s a fact!”

Jones tags in Lohan and Lohan enters and grabs Lyman. She then lifts him up and turns and drops him with a spinebuster. Lohan rolls through into a pin.

Lyman kicks out as Lyman starts to head over, but backs up after the two. Lohan turns and grabs Lyman and lifts him up. She turns and whips him into the ropes. Lyman bounces off and Lohan scoops her up, but Lyman kicks his feet and drops down behind Lohan, grabs her in an inverted front face lock before lifting her up and throwing her back with a reverse suplex. The crowd cheers. Lyman gets up and turns before grabbing Lohan and placing her head between his legs. Jones enters and Lyman throws Lohan down and Lyman back drops Jones down. Lyman then turns as Jones rolls out of the ring. Lohan then nails him with a clothesline. Lyman rolls over as Lyman stirs and starts to get up. Lohan smiles before turning and lunging at Tommy and going for a hard right, but Tommy blocks it and hits a guillotine drop. She falls back and Lyman lifts her up and throws her down with a spinning spinebuster.

Sharper: “And Lohan gets caught again! She went for a shot on Tommy Valentine! Tommy was ready and then a spinebuster by Lyman!”

Knots: “This has been back and forth. It’s nuts. Both going for what they can.”

Sharper: “Both teams making some interesting choices. Looking to keep both opponents down at all times.”

Lyman goes for the pin.

Lohan shoots her shoulder up. She turns and Lyman grabs her and drags her up. Jones stirs on the floor as the crowd boos seeing Harmony Fisher walking down to the ring. Lyman nails Lohan with a hard right and Lohan falls to the corner. Jones gets up as Tommy watches Harmony and Harmony turns to Angelica Jones. Tommy watches Harmony as Angelica gets up and turns to Harmony. Lyman kicks Lohan in the ribs repeatedly before pulling her out. He fires her into the ropes, but Lohan bounces off and hits a diving shoulder. Harmony and Angelica then turn and start to head to the back. Angelica just smiling a bit as Harmony looks a bit less happy. Lohan looks up a bit confused before getting up.

Sharper: “Angelica Jones heading off with Harmony Fisher. What is going on here?”

Knots: “I don’t know, but Brittany’s not in on the plan it seems. She’s not exactly impressed.”

Angelica and Harmony disappear to the back and Tommy turns back to the ring. Lyman starts to get up as Lohan turns and walks over to the ropes and turns back. She then lunges at Lyman, but Lyman ducks and dives over and tags in Tommy. Tommy enters the ring and Lohan quickly turns and kicks him in the ribs. Lohan then pulls him in, but Lyman turns and nails her with a superkick. The crowd ohs and Lohan falls back. Tommy flips through as Lyman falls to the corner.

The crowd cheers. Tommy rolls off and Lyman pulls himself up. He heads over to Tommy and the two celebrate as the referee raises their arms. Lohan rolls over and holds her jaw as she goes to the floor. She then starts to walk around as Tommy and Simon stand in the ring celebrating.

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine and Simon Lyman get the win. But the bigger story right now is what is going on with Silas World?”

Knots: “I don’t know, but Lohan is starting to head off after them, slowly. Lyman and Valentine better be happy.”

Sharper: “I’m sure they are. And they get their recompense here tonight.”

Just then, we see Lohan stop as Rachel Frost and Rachel Foxx walk out from the back. The crowd roars as Lohan then lunges and goes to nail Frost. Foxx nails her in the ribs with a kick and Frost kicks her in the ribs. She then turns and runs Lohan into the stage. Brittany Lohan falls over and Tommy and Simon look up and watch as Rachel Frost grabs Brittany and pulls her up and nails her with a hard right and then another and another. She lifts her up and throws her at Foxx who then turns and throws Brittany Lohan off the stage. The crowd roars and Rachel Frost just smiles as she looks up. Foxx just smiles as Lohan goes through a table.

Knots: “Oh my God!”

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan just thrown through a table off the stage!”

Knots: “Tommy! Simon! Come on! Play hero!”

Just then, they turn and we see Harmony Fisher running out and nailing Rachel Foxx with a hard right and then another. Frost turns and Harmony in the ribs before turning and spinning her around and throwing her into the stage set. Tommy and Simon drop down to the floor as Harmony is knocked down.

Sharper: “Harmony trying to help! Simon and Tommy now heading after them!”

Knots: “Now they are! Come on!”

Harmony rolls over and Foxx kicks her in the ribs. Frost walks over before we then see Alexis Quinne run out from the back and tackle Rachel Frost down. The crowd roars and Quinne starts to bang Frost’s head against the stage. Foxx turns and Simon and Tommy stop as Collin Cole comes out with a steel chair and nails Foxx in the side. Foxx falls over. Cole then cracks her in the back. The crowd cheers. Foxx rolls over and Cole clubs her again in the back. Quinne gets off of Rachel Frost. She starts to get up and Quinne kicks her in the ribs and then again before officials come out and quickly step in between them. Quinne and Cole just look at them as Cole holds the chair up.

Sharper: “Cole! Quinne! The Falconry strikes!”

Knots: “Frost tried for another pound of flesh. They were going to take out Harmony too! But Cole and Quinne….No!”

Sharper: “Tommy and Simon standing back watching this pandemonium! Officials breaking up. My God! The Coalition not having a great night!”

Cole and Quinne keep watching them as the crowd roars. Rachel Frost starts to get up and glares at Red Rayne and Aiken then try to get in from behind with Jed Wayne too. The officials frantically try to keep everyone apart.

COMMERCIAL:

We open up backstage and we see Collin Cole and Alexis Quinne backstage heading back to their locker room. They notice the camera and Collin Cole turns and walks over to it.

Cole: “Told you that if you wanted a war Foxx, we’d give it. I hope the Coalition is ready!”

Quinne smiles and skips over to the camera.

Quinne: “Happy Birthday to me!”

Quinne laughs and then walks off as the crowd cheers. We then cut away.

We open up now in the locker rooms to see Angelica Jones walking through the hallway.

Silas: “Angel! Ya needed!”

Angelica walks into the locker room and we see Chris Cannon on the floor being choked by Kraven Wallace. The crowd boos. Silas just smiles as he steps forward.

Angelica: “Well this is interesting…”

Silas: “Indeed.”

Angelica: “Brittany would love it.”

Silas: “And if Harmony wasn’t so stubborn and selfish, she could enjoy it, but instead, you get the honours.”

Angelica: “So…he’s a traitor, eh?”

Silas: “He’s standing in this building as a contracted star. To me…that means he’s will the enemy and I’m not okay with that.”

Angelica: “Well then…you’re a threat to Kelcey.”

Kraven: “Hurry it up. Taylor will be back with Kelcey soon enough.”

Angelica then stomps Chris in the face before stomping him in the ribs, just teeing off with stomp after stomp after stomp. She then steps over and stomps his hand before stepping down on it.

Angelica: “This what you used to sign that contract…big mistake….”

Angelica then looks around.

Angelica: “Oh…and that…”

Angelica turns and stomps on his other hand. Chris lets out a yell. Kraven muffles him.

Angelica: “That ring must mean nothing…not even looking out for her anymore. Directly undermining Silas, undermines her….horrible husband you are.”

Angelica then kicks him hard in the head. Kraven holds him up before kicking him again and again and again in the face. She then backs off as Chris just hangs in Kraven’s hands, unconscious.

Silas: “Get rid of him.”

Angelica smiles.

Silas: “You did good work.”

Kraven lifts Cannon up and then turns and places him on his shoulder. He walks out of the room as Angelica turns to Silas.

Angelica: “And Kelcey?”

Silas: “She’s going to understand…she’ll have to.”

Angelica: “Excellent.”

Angelica smiles.

Sharper: “My God…”

Knots: “They just destroyed Chris Cannon!”

The scene then cuts away to show Mr. D in his office. Alicia walks in and looks at him.

Alicia: “Um…Mr. D….”

Mr. D: “Yes?”

Alicia: “You’ll have a meeting with the Board on Friday.”

Mr. D: “Good….It’ll be a long week.”

Just then, there’s a knock and we see Carlos walk in, and then BBU before finally Kennedy Street.

Mr. D: “Oh good…it’s going to get longer.”

BBU then guards the door. Kennedy looks at Mr. D.

Kennedy: “You! I have a problem with you.”

Mr. D: “Oh why’s this? Ryan still getting the sting out-“

Kennedy: “What? What happened to him? No…I’m still not in the World Title match and frankly, I am NOT going to go to Supreme Saturday to face that deviant!”

Mr. D: “Kennedy…you started that all. That was an issue you started. As for the World Title….take a number. Works for others.”

Kennedy: “No. I will NOT stand in line!”

Mr. D: “That’s unfortunate. I believe you are in line-“

Kennedy: “No. I will not be going into that ring to face Simon Lyman. I am going to go to San Antonio to wrestle for the World Championship OR to watch Alex Young do my bidding.”

Mr. D just laughs a bit.

Kennedy: “What was funny? I was not telling a joke…and if I did, you certainly would be laughing more than that. Keenie does funny very well.”

Mr. D: “You’re just so much like her.”

Kennedy: “Like who? What?”

Mr. D: “Like Katie…well…a few years ago. I’m still waiting for the formal protest.”

Kennedy just looks incensed.

Kennedy: “That that horrible insult back!”

Mr. D: “Not an insult. It’s the truth…honey-“

Katie: “Oh Goddess yes it is.”

Kennedy turns as BBU just remains in front of Katie Steward as she walks past. TJ Johnson walks over with her.

Kennedy: “You! You ruining….ruinor! And I not you!”

Johnson: “If you were blonder….and better looking….and a Goddess-“

Katie: “That’s enough TJ.”

Kennedy shrieks a bit.

Katie: “You done wasting his time.”

Kennedy: “I’m wasting no one’s time. In fact, you’re wasting what’s left of your career for when Alex Young gets to do what he should’ve done a few weeks ago….you’ll be just a memory.”

Katie: “Good luck with that. I’m not too worried. Just what happens if he doesn’t succeed?”

Kennedy just looks at Katie.

Kennedy: “Won’t happen. Come on. I won’t be further insulted!”

Kennedy then storms past BBU and Katie. Carlos follows as does BBU. Katie then turns to Mr. D.

Mr. D: “You were here for something else?”

Katie: “Heard Kennedy from down the hall…but also…give Gigi her shot. I don’t want to face Autumn. The Women’s Title…if it’s any Steward’s….it’s Gigi’s now.”

Mr. D: “Duly noted.”

Katie turns and walks off. Alicia finishes up her notes. Mr. D then sits down.

“Rescue Me” starts to play. The Breakdown logo comes up. We then see a shot of CHBK before a shot of Shaun Cruze.

Sharper: “When we return, World Title on the line, steel cage match! And remember, Cruze and Silas made their own deal earlier tonight.”

Knots: “Is CHBK going to be the World Champion heading into Rise to Greatness? Will Cruze be the World Champion heading into Supreme Saturday and his match against Syren this Saturday?!”

Sharper: “We’ll find out next!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIAL:

CHBK vs. Shaun Cruze

Steel Cage Match

SCW World Championship

Breakdown returns as we open up at ringside to see the steel cage set up and secured around the ring.

Sharper: “There you see the steel cage. World Title about to be on the line.”

Knots: “Two top stars in history…CHBK and Shaun Cruze. This will be fun!”

The SCW World Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner. “This is How a Heart Breaks” plays throughout the arena and the crowd immediately starts to boos. The music plays for a few moments before we see CHBK walk out from the back with his arms outstretched and pyro shoots out from the sides of the entrance way. He stands at the top of the entrance way and just looks out, still with his arms out and just smiling. Mikaela Street walks out with him. CHBK soaks in the boos for a moment before starting to walk down to the ring with his arm in the air. The boos continue as CHBK reaches the ring and walks up the steel steps and into the cage. Mikaela remains outside and walks around the ring, pointing to CHBK. CHBK steps through the ropes and spins around as he walks to the middle of the ring. He then stops before dropping down to his knees and just looking out at the crowd as pyro shoots out behind him. He then pulls himself up before walking over to the corner and climbing up to the middle rope. He slides off his entrance attire, throwing it down to the floor before looking out at the crowd. He just smirks before jumping down and walking along the ropes and stretching out a bit. Mikaela smiles as CHBK awaits Cruze.

Sharper: “CHBK received this match thanks to his own influence in this company. Also got Mikaela Street a Women’s Championship shot.”

Knots: “It’s not influence. It’s a reward for years of hard work. And tonight, he goes for World Title number six!”

Sharper: “A lot of people angry about this one.”

The opening rifts of ‘Awake and Alive’ by Skillet hits over the PA system and Shaun Cruze confidently walks from the back, Yvonne Knight stood by his side. He looks left and right and the fans, some who still chant his name whilst the vast majority jeers his presence. He simple shakes his head and grins before walking down the ramp way

I'm at war with the world
And they try to pull me into the dark
I struggle to find my faith
As I'm slipping from your arms
It's getting harder to stay awake
And my strength is fading fast
You breathe into me at last

I'm awake, I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside
Now it's my time
I'll do what I want 'cause this is my life
(Here, right now)
Right here, right now
Stand my ground and never back down
I know what I believe inside
I'm awake, and I'm alive

As he reaches the ring he walks up the steps as Yvonne looks at Shaun. Shaun nods before entering the ring. Shaun then walks over to the middle of the ring and holds up the SCW World Championship as pyro shoots out of ringposts. The crowd boos.

I'm at war with the world
'Cause I ain't never gonna sell my soul
I've already made up my mind
No matter what, I can't be bought or sold
When my faith is getting weak
And I feel like giving in
You breathe into me again

Shaun turns and hands the title off to the official before running at CHBK and nailing him with a hard right. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Here we go! Cruze firing the first shot! He was angry as hell about this!”

Knots: “And CHBK is ready. Here we go. This should be a classic!”

Cruze nails CHBK again as the official hands the title off to the ring announcer, Jason Phillips, as he exits the ring. Cruze kicks CHBK in the ribs and whips him across the ring. CHBK hits the corner and stumbles out as Cruze lifts him up and back drops him down. He then goes for the pin.

CHBK kicks out. Both get up and Cruze knees CHBK in the ribs. He then turns and whips him into the ropes. He bounces off and Cruze lifts him up for a second back drop, but CHBK spins through. He then pushes Cruze forward and rolls him up in an Okana roll.

Cruze kicks out. Cruze gets up and CHBK quickly hits a dropkick to the ribs. Cruze rolls over in pain. CHBK gets up and stomps him in the face and then again. Cruze rolls over to the corner.

Sharper: “And CHBK, dropkick immobilizes Cruze and now CHBK right onto him.”

Knots: “Get veteran move there. Just going right after Cruze!”

CHBK stomps him again. He then starts to choke him with his boot. Cruze tries to get whatever leverage he can as CHBK keeps choking him. The referee counts, trying to convince CHBK to stop. CHBK just snaps at him before then stopping and stomping Cruze in the face. He grabs Cruze and lifts him up and hits a snap suplex. He then turns and goes for the pin.

Cruze kicks out. He turns as CHBK gets up. He grabs Cruze and drags him up and drags him to the corner. Cruze turns and CHBK chops him. The crowd woos. He then fires him across the ring. CHBK takes a step before running after and Cruze gets his boot up. CHBK stumbles back and Cruze runs out and nails him with a jumping calf kick. CHBK hits the mat and starts to get up and Cruze scoops him up and throws him down with a back suplex. Cruze goes for the pin.

CHBK gets his shoulder up and turns. He then starts to get up as Cruze kicks CHBK in the ribs.

Sharper: “Cruze back in control. That’s the thing about this. Both know the big match feel. They know what to do.”

Knots: “And yeah, and now just knocking CHBK back. Cruze needs to keep it going.”

Cruze kicks CHBK again and whips him into the ropes. CHBK bounces off the ropes and Cruze tilt-a-whirls him down with a backbreaker. The crowd ohs and CHBK goes for the pin.

CHBK kicks out. Cruze turns and grabs CHBK and locks him in a side headlock, slowly dragging him up. He then turns and nails him with a palm thrust. CHBK falls to a knee. Cruze nails CHBK again. He then spins him around and kicks him in the ribs. He hits a vertical suplex before getting up. Cruze walks over to the ropes and bounces off before hitting a jumping elbow drop. The crowd boos and Cruze goes for the pin.

CHBK gets his shoulder up. Just then, we see Jake Starr walking out from the back. He just smiles as the crowd cheers. Cruze grabs CHBK and turns before throwing him over into the corner. CHBK turns and Cruze glances over and notices Jake Starr. Starr just walks over to the ring and waves as the crowd cheers.

Knots: “Get him out of here. He shouldn’t be out here!”

Sharper: “Jake Starr joining us for ringside here. He’s just taking a look at the action.”

Cruze looks at Jake as he heads over.

Cruze: “Get out of here!”

Starr: “Just watching the match. Unless you’re going to attack me. Come on Shaun! Free shot!”

Cruze just turns away from him and just then, CHBK rakes Cruze in the eyes. Cruze turns away and CHBK lifts him up and hits an inverted atomic drop. Cruze winces before CHBK knocks him down with a hard right. He notices Jake. Jake gives him a bit of a wave too before CHBK goes for the pin.

Cruze kicks out. CHBK looks at him again as Jake then pretends to smoke a cigarette while leaning against the cage. CHBK stomps Cruze in the face. Cruze then starts to get up.

Sharper: “Jake Starr standing at ringside still…”

Knots: “What the hell is he doing?”

Sharper: “He’s acting almost like he’s waiting for a bus.”

Knots: “Hopefully it’s in the name of Imperium…or Silas’ World!”

Jake Starr continues to mime as CHBK grabs Cruze and pulls him up to the turnbuckle and nails him with a hard right before a shot to the ribs and then another. CHBK pulls Cruze out and then throws him down with a Russian leg sweep. He then goes for the pin.

Cruze gets his shoulder up. CHBK turns and grabs Cruze as we then see Donovan Kayl and David Helms starting to head down from the back. Jake Starr stops and looks at them as CHBK throws Cruze into the corner. CHBK then kicks him in the ribs and then again. CHBK turns as Donovan Kayl looks at the ring. David Helms walks over to Jake Starr. The camera gets in close.

Helms: “Jake…”

Starr: “David….”

Sharper: “There’s a hell of a faceoff…those two a long history.”

Knots: “Why are THEY out here now?”

Sharper: “That’s obvious. They’re here to focus on CHBK. I still don’t know what Jake is waiting for.”

Starr: “Anyone else in the tunnel?”

Helms: “Clear for days…”

Starr: “Hmmm…interesting. I wonder where they may be.”

Starr smirks before starting to head off to the back as CHBK yells at Kayl and Helms. Mikaela starts to head around too and they both yell at them, only for Cruze to suddenly grab CHBK from behind and throw him face first into the side of the cage. CHBK stumbles back and Cruze turns and runs him across the ring and into the cag again. CHBK falls back and down to the middle of the ring, onto his face. Cruze turns and walks over and hits a big elbow drop to the back of CHBK before getting up and just then realizing Jake Starr is leaving. He looks around before then shaking his head and grabbing CHBK. We then see CHBK starting to bleed and Cruze runs him over and face first into the cage again. CHBK falls back as the crowd roars. Kayl just looks at Mikaela as Mikaela yells at him. He just accepts it, taking the yelling.

Sharper: “CHBK is busted open. Cruze noticed Jake Starr is leaving.”

Knots: “So he came out for what? Because he was bored?!”

Sharper: “Mikaela is tearing a strip into Kayl.”

Knots: “Just kick him and run!”

Mikaela spins Kayl around and smacks him. Helms then walks over and steps in front of Mikaela. Cruze quickly lifts CHBK up and hits a German suplex into a bridge.

CHBK gets his shoulder up. Cruze rolls over and just then, a split screen comes up.

BACKSTAGE:

We see Syren backstage as we see one of the crewmembers in front of her.

Syren: “I have no clue how this happened to get here. It’s a fire hazard to be sure. What if something happens? They wouldn’t be able to get out!”

The camera pans over to show a storage crate and some heavy bags in front of the door to Silas’ room. We can see the door being banged against it.

Syren: “I certainly didn’t see ANYONE use that forklift and throw the keys somewhere down that hallway. Scout’s honor!”

Syren then turns and smiles as she starts to head down the hallway and we see Jake Starr standing there. They high-five before walking off.

Cruze grabs CHBK and lifts him up and nails him with a hard right. He falls to the ropes. Cruze kicks him hard and hits a snap suplex. He then turns and goes to the corner and looks up to the screen, seeing the scene playing out. He then looks down and sighs before climbing up to the top rope. He just grits his teeth before then diving off and going for a swanton bomb, but CHBK rolls out of the way. Cruze hits the mat.

Sharper: “That’s why! And Cruze crashes and burns!”

Knots: “That’s unsafe! They actually worked together! Syren! What are you doing?!”

Sharper: “Syren and Starr preventing Silas from doing anything. Cruze thought he had that back-up plan. He had a way to protect his title. Now CHBK is more of a threat!”

Knots: “That’s why Starr was out here! But at least Kayl and Helms are…oh God…and Helms! Get away from Mikaela!”

CHBK starts to get up as we then hear the crowd roar. Mikaela suddenly nails Helms with a kick before turning and telling Kayl to come at her. Regan Street then hops over the barricade as CHBK grabs Cruze and quickly hits a double arm DDT. He turns and throws his arm over him.

Cruze gets his shoulder up. CHBK looks up, blood streaming down and starts to stir. Regan runs over to Mikaela as Kayl then shoves her back and Regan quickly kicks her in the ribs and throws him into the side of the cage. Mikaela falls to the ground as the crowd cheers. Regan then turns and looks at the ring as CHBK looks up. He gets up and turns and looks at Cruze as he starts to stir. CHBK then staggers over.

CHBK: “Too bad I’ll be champion!”

CHBK waits as Cruze starts to get up. Blood drips down his face as a “Regan Street!” chant begins. CHBK then lunges at Cruze, but Cruze catches his foot. CHBK looks shocked as Cruze spins him around and then grabs him by the head and throws him face first into the cage. CHBK staggers back and Cruze scoops him up and hits the C5. The crowd ohs and Regan smiles as Mikaela starts to stir. Cruze then hooks the leg.

Sharper: “C5! C5!”

Knots: “Cruze planted him! Regan the distraction! Oh God!”

The crowd roars and then boos as Cruze rolls over, and looks up. Regan turns and yells at the referee to get over to the door. The official opens it and Phillips goes to hand the official the title only for Regan to shove him back and storm into the ring. Helms just smiles as Mikaela starts to get up and Kayl and Helms then turn and stand over her. The crowd roars as Cruze starts to get up and Regan then runs over and kicks him in the ribs before turning and throwing him over to the corner.

Sharper: “Regan Street now in the ring! Now in the cage!”

Knots: “Get your hands off the champ! See what being a brute like Helms gets you! Come on!”

Cruze rolls over and looks up before then backing away and out of the ring. Helms and Kayl look at him and he turns as Phillips starts to get up. He grabs his title and backs away as the crowd cheers. Cruze turns and looks around before quickly starting to make his retreat. Mikaela just looks up as CHBK stirs and Regan turns and watches him. Regan then looks at CHBK before pulling him up and turning and grinding his face into the cage. The crowd cheers loudly as CHBK struggles. Regan keeps grinding his face in.

Knots: “No! Not his face!”

Sharper: “Regan Street turning CHBK’s face into a crimson mask further! Cruze running off! Not wanting anything to do with her or Helms or Kayl!”

Knots: “And Mikaela…poor Mikaela! She’s forced to watch her mentor get attacked like this!”

Sharper: “CHBK’s plan a glorious failure and it’s only going to get worse!”

Regan keeps grinding his face in before throwing him back. He turns and starts to get back up. Regan looks at him before bouncing off the ropes and nailing him with the Love Tap. The crowd cheers some more. CHBK is laid out as Kayl smiles and Mikaela tries to get past Helms, but Helms pins her against the barricade.

Knots: “Get off her!”

Sharper: “Helms is pinning Mikaela back! Not letting her get to the cage!”

Regan then grabs CHBK and lifts him up before looking right at him. The camera gets in close.

Regan: “You leave me alone…or else…”

Regan then pulls him in and drops him with a vicious CAT-astrophe. CHBK just falls to the mat as the crowd cheers. Regan then pushes herself up. She looks at CHBK’s blood on her and just dusts her hands off. “Who’s Next” starts to play. Regan then walks over to the door and exits. She jumps down to the floor. Helms then moves away from Mikaela as Mikaela kicks Helms in the shin before running past and entering the cage. She crawls over to CHBK and checks on him. Regan just turns and starts to walk around the ring as Helms turns and follows Regan. Kayl just looks in the ring and watches for a moment longer and then continuing on his way. We then see Regan Street and David Helms walking to the back. We then cut to a shot of Shilo Valiant watching in the catwalks. He can be seen applauding before smiling.

Sharper: “And Shilo Valiant watching. He likes what he say. He told Regan to make sure she could get rid of CHBK.”

Knots: “Was the message sent? I don’t know. I don’t care…”

Sharper: “Helms right there with Regan to help her. Kayl making sure…and Mikaela Street…”

Knots: “Oh Mikaela!”

Sharper: “Two big plans ruined! Cruze and Silas didn’t get their shot at Starr or Syren….and CHBK is not World Champion.”

Mikaela holds CHBK as CHBK is now on his back. Mikaela just leans next to him and glares at the stage as CHBK’s blood starts to cover her shirt and pants. CHBK remains down as Mikaela starts to seethe in anger and the scene fades to black…
