Breakdown - March 30, 2023

“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

A shot of Kelcey Wallace nailing Bree Lancaster with the Perfect Ending, followed by a shot of Steve Griffin hitting the Decimator off the top rope on CHBK at the first Rise to Greatness, before turning a shot of Jake Starr pumping up the crowd on his way to the ring, before turning into a shot of Ravyn Taylor sitting in the corner, waiting for the start of a match. We then see a shot of Katie Steward holding the Women’s Championship before cutting to a shot of Selena Frost hitting Vixen Cain with the Defying Gravity at Supreme Saturday: Just Desserts.

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

MAIN SHOW:

The opening bars of “The Old Me” by Memphis May Fire play as the Breakdown logo flies across the screen.

I'm thinking about the old me

'Cause I've been feeling empty

I never used to be so dead inside

Shots of Selena Frost celebrating with the World Championship start before we see a shot of the Konrad Raab, bloodied, standing tall in the ring. Following this is Cid Turner punching CHBK in the concourse. Ace Sky diving off the top rope onto an opponent follows.

I think I lost my memory

I can't remember carefree

And all my days turn into fight or flight

Holly Adams standing on Asher Hayes at Tactical Warfare follows before we see Syren hitting the Total Makeover on an opponent. The One choking out Beard before we see Polly Playtime diving off the top rope and landing on an opponent with a crossbody.

I wanna get back, tell me how to get back

Holly Adams throwing Syren into the windshield of a pink convertible follows before we see The Happy Farmstead Friends holding the SCW World Tag Team Championship. Ravyn Taylor standing on the ropes, looking down at herself, follows before we see Gavin Taylor hitting an opponent with the Gavin Taylor Lariat. Glory Braddock hitting the London Plunge on a downed opponents is next before we see Tsunami hitting a running body avalanche on an opponent in the corner.

Say it again, say it again, tell me what I wanna hear

Tell me that I'm gonna be fine and there's nothing left to fear

'Cause I've been losing sleep (losing sleep)

Trying to get back to who I used to be

Where is the old me?

Autumn Valentine hitting the Blindspot on a foe follows before we see a shot of Owen Lee and Daisy Lee on their way to the ring, and then a shot of Kimberly Williams licking a staple gun. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen and remains on it for a few moments.

We then cut to a live shot of the inside of the Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta. The cameras pan across the crowd for a few moments.

Sharper: “We are north of the border in the home of the Edmonton Oilers for what may be the most chaotic Breakdown in SCW History!”

The cameras continue to pan across the crowd. After a few moments, we cut to ringside where Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots sit at the announce position.

Sharper: “Hello again everyone. Adam Sharper here with Jonathan Knots and before we get to tonight’s action, we need to talk about Retribution.”

Knots: “Yes we do. Every title retained! Every one and Owen Cruze stopped Adam Allocco’s quest to return to the top. House of Frost beat Light in the Darkness to retain the Tag Titles. Bree Lancaster still the Adrenaline Champion. Josh Hudson still US Champion. And for good measure Glory put her title up, the TV Title, and it’s still on the line. And all of that could be for not tonight.”

Sharper: “It could be. Not only that, we saw Simon Lyman and Kandis clash and after the match, Amy Chastaine came from the back and got involved. But then stunningly also, Ace Marshall returned after months of being missing.”

Knots: “Has Lexy caught up to him?”

Sharper: “I don’t know. But we have all of that fallout…while the entire roster will going at it here tonight.”

Knots: “And let’s go over this so everyone knows what to expect. We have the rules right?”

Sharper: “We do. So allow us to explain what we’re going to see tonight.”

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see the rules listed on the screen.

Sharper: “Every title is on the line tonight. Not just that, each tag title is represented. And winners are determined by who has the most falls. Think of this like an ironperson match that lasts the entirety of Breakdown. Whoever has the most falls will be the World Champion. Then the US Champion. Then Adrenaline. Then the first Tag Title. Then the second. And finally, the Television Championship.”

Knots: “And here’s the rub – Underground, presumably would be next, but Kimberly Williams has it for her. She needs ONE fall. She gets it, she’s Underground Champion.”

Sharper: “And what’s a fall – well, we hope you liked the Unsanctioned title. It’s pinfall, submission or ass-stapling. Yes, ass-stapling is a fall.”

Knots: “Oh wonderful. And it’s Underground Rules, so falls count anywhere.”

Sharper: “And with that, there’s one more big rule. Anywhere in the building. But if you leave the building, you lose all of your falls. They’re reset. You start over. Of course, Kim isn’t part of that, but now there’s a number of things to keep track of here.”

Knots: “And yeah, we’ve got officials everywhere. SCW even hiring some additional officials to count falls. Road agents have been deputized too.”

We cut to shots backstage where we see Dean Black wearing a referee shirt, before showing Steve Hollinsworth standing backstage near the locker rooms. Beard is shown in the crowd, looking around before we see Aaron Demitra in the ring.

Sharper: “And we should highlight we only have so many officials, and with the falls count anywhere aspect, this could get chaotic.”

Knots: “We’re going to see some strategy to say the least. And to highlight, virtually everyone on the roster could be in it. Whether they get involved is a different thing.”

EARLIER TODAY:

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen as we see a shot of James Evans walking out of the building with his gear.

Sharper: “And to showcase this, James Evans who arrived here as expected. He’s flat out left the building. He wants nothing to do with this.”

Knots: “Well yeah. You don’t want to have fun, you need to go! And he doesn’t like chaos.”

Sharper: “So if Datura had hopes for some revenge, that’s not happening.”

We continue to watch Evans continue to leave the building. He walks through the doors and heads out, the doors closing behind him. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

We cut to the ring as the lights go out, except for a single spotlight at the top of the stage. The opening chords to “Patient Number 9” by Ozzy Osbourne begins to play. A haunting voice is heard…

"Is there a way out of here?"
"Hey, how long you been here?"
"I wanna go home"
"Hey, hahaha"
"Hahaha"
"Excuse me, could you tell how to get out of here?"
"Hahaha"
"I want to go home"
"Hahaha"
"Mommy, mommy"

The song begins to rage full bore now. Suddenly the lights come back on and Kimberly Williams is standing at the top of the stage to a loud, mostly positive, reaction from the fans. She has a staple gun in a holster around her waist. A sinister smirk is on her face as she ponders what she is about to do tonight. She winks at the fans before pointing towards the ring and making a beeline towards it. She slides into the ring underneath the bottom rope. Kimberly then poses in the center of the ring to another loud reaction from the fans. The music slowly dies down as Kim stands in the ring and motions to Jason Phillips. Phillips shakes his head no and places the microphone on the apron. Kim just pouts before walking over.

Sharper: “And there’s the person responsible for all of this.”

Knots: “And I guess she’s going to announce the start of this thing.”

Sharper: “Well she’s ready.”

Knots: “That’s probably why Phillips isn’t going in. Don’t trust a maniac with a staple gun!”

Kim grabs the microphone and looks up at Phillips.

Kim: “I wasn’t going to do anything. Maybe just maim you a little bit!”

Kim sighs and then turns back to the middle of the ring.

Kim: “Well then-“

Just then, the opening rifts to The Black Adam Theme kick in, as mist fills the entranceway. Kim turns to the entrance way. The music stops, a huge explosion rocks the entranceway and Owen jumps, seemingly through the floor and landing on his feet, dropping to one knee and punching the floor. Owen gets to his feet, and looks left and right at the reaction he is getting, a look of focus and determination on his face as he takes in the crowd. The SCW World and Underground Championships are over his shoulder. He looks at the ring and at Kim. With real intensity, he begins the walk down to the ring, slapping the hand of anyone who offers, a laser show accompanying him all the way to the bottom of the ramp before he then slides in and under the bottom rope, before standing in the middle of the ring, stepping up to Kimberly Williams. Kim looks at him and smiles. He then backs up and walks over to the corner, keeping his front toward Kim. Phillips hands him a microphone.

Sharper: “The World Champion. The Underground Champion. He is here and not wasting time.”

Knots: “Kim attacked him at Retribution. Clearly that’s playing a role. He’s also got the most to lose! He could walk out without both titles.”

Sharper: “He would get an automatic rematch, and that’s something else we will discuss as this night goes on. Several contenders crowned at Retribution. What happens to them?”

Owen takes it and walks over to Kim.

Owen: “So Kim…I don’t feel like waiting. You didn’t at Retribution. We know you have a problem with me not defending this at Retribution.”

Owen holds up the SCW Underground Champion. He then throws it down.

Owen: “So, since I assume you’re going to start us off, I’m right here and not running from this. Give it your best shot!”

Kim: “Hell yeah! There you go Owey! You found your balls. And I promise not to staple them. Your ass though…but anyway…”

Kim clears her throat.

Kim: “Let’s the CHAOS BEGIN!”

Kim turns and swings, going to nail Owen, but Owen ducks. Kim stumbles forward as a bell sounds. Demitra turns as the crowd roars.

Sharper: “And here we go!”

Owen turns and nails Kim with a forearm shot and then another and another. Kim hits the ropes and falls through the ropes, but back in the ring. She rolls toward the middle of the ring and gets up and goes for the Underground Championship, talking to it a bit, only for Owen to run over and nail her from behind with a clothesline. Kim rolls over as she turns as Owen walks over and grabs her. The crowd boos loudly as we see Adam Allocco running down from the back. He then slides into the ring. Owen grabs Kim and Kim is grappling with her staple gun, before Adam gets up and grabs Owen Cruze from behind. He hooks him up and hits a huge release German suplex. The crowd ohs. As this happens, we cut backstage to see Josh Hudson grabbing Glory Braddock and running her into a wall. Glory falls over before Josh turns as Hayes kicks him in the ribs and nails him with a hard right. He turns and throws him into a wall. We then cut to another part of the backstage area where we see Cassie Wolfe and Magical Cosmic Princess YUYO fighting with Hairless Penguin (without Lexy Chapel) and nearby The One and Konrad Raab battle.

Sharper: “And the chaos has started as multiple fights all over. In the ring, Adam Allocco attacking Owen Cruze from behind and German Suplexing him down.”

Knots: “Not just suplexing him, but launching him. And Kim is getting that staple gun!”

Kim starts to get up and Adam turns and stomps away on Owen Cruze, stomping him over and over and over again. Adam then turns to Kim as Kim steps up and Adam points to Owen. Adam then grabs Owen and pulls him up before placing him over his knee. He drops down as Adam motions to her.

Sharper: “And look at this! Adam Allocco has Owen Cruze ready to be stapled.”

Knots: “Has him bent over his knee, like he would’ve done with his children if he hadn’t left for a carton of milk!”

Sharper: “And look at Kim. She could win the Underground Title in moments and focus on chaos!”

Kim then holds up the staple gun up. Owen fights a bit before Kim then steps up and goes to attack Adam instead. He just gets up in time and throws Owen up, causing him to fall into Kim’s hand, knocking the staple gun out. Adam turns to her.

Adam: “What the hell?”

Kim shrugs before then nailing Adam with a hard right. She nails him again with another and then backs up and goes to nail him again and clotheslines him up and over the top rope. Adam falls on the floor. Kim turns around and goes for her staple gun, but Owen kicks it away and then kicks her in the face. She falls back and rolls out of the ring. Owen starts to get up.

Sharper: “Kim turning on Adam.”

Knots: “The fact that he trusted her!”

Sharper: “And now Owen and Kim back to fighting!”

Kim starts to get up and Owen turns and runs across the ring, bouncing off the other side before jumping forward and through the ropes with a suicide dive onto Kim. Kim falls into the barricade and Owen falls over. Adam slowly gets up on the floor, but the crowd erupts in cheers as Xander Valentine runs down to the ring. Adam gets up and goes to go after Owen and Kim, but Xander’s hand grabs him by the arm. Adam turns, his eyes widening before Xander pulls him into a vicious clothesline. Adam rolls over in pain. Xander then turns and looks over at Kim and Owen as they stir. Xander turns back and Adam starts to get up and Xander drops him with a forearm shot. Adam falls over. As this happens, we then see Syren running out from the back. On the floor, we see Cassie Wolfe and Hairless Penguin fighting as we then see YUYO step out.

YUYO: “YUYO IS HERE!”

YUYO exclaims as the crowd roars. The camera turns back to show Xander pulling Adam up only for Syren to spin him around and nail him with a forearm shot. Adam falls to the barricade as Xander turns to Syren. Syren steps up to him.

Sharper: “And Xander and Syren face to face after Retribution! Xander won and threw Syren literally out of the ring.”

Knots: “Syren is not happy!”

Syren: “So…you want to d-“

Xander then shoves her down. Syren looks up as the crowd ohs. Xander holds up two fingers.

Xander: “There’s nothing more for me to prove against you!”

Syren looks up as Xander turns to Adam who suddenly boots Xander in the groin. Xander grimaces and falls to a knee.

Sharper: “Allocco with the low blow!”

We cut back to the ring as Owen tries to send Kim into the timekeeper table, but Kim hops over and spins around, landing on her feet and turning. Owen runs after and Kim then grabs the ring bell and just throws it into Owen’s face. Owen falls over and to the steel steps. Kim climbs over as Syren then turns to Adam and nails him with a hard right. Adam stumbles off before Syren turns and goes to move to Xander, but the crowd roars as Kandis runs out from behind and nails Syren in the back of the head with a clothesline. Syren falls over and down to the ramp. We then see The One thrown into the stage set and falling over, thrown in by Konrad. Konrad then looks down at the floor as Cassie, YUYO and Penguin fight. We then see Konrad running over and jumping off with a crossbody, but Cassie, YUYO and Penguin all scatter. Konrad lands on the floor and rolls through in pain. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Jesus! Konrad into the concrete!”

Knots: “He just dove off, no care in the world!”

Sharper: “And he just wants to destroy anyone!”

Knots: “And look next to us!”

Owen gets up and Kim climbs onto the announce table before diving off with a bulldog to Owen Cruze, driving him into the steel steps before Kim lands awkwardly on the steel steps and rolls down in pain. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “And Kim even taking a big risk. That was almost careless. But she wants to win the Underground Title.”

Knots: “And who knows where that damn staple gun is.”

We then see Datura storming out from the back. Kandis grabs Syren and rolls her into the ring. Cassie and YUYO climb onto the rampway as Penguin does too. Datura then nails Penguin, causing him to stagger down the rampway. Datura punches YUYO too before Cassie kicks her in the ribs. Cassie then grabs Datura and runs her to the ring. Kandis gets up and grabs Syren. Datura rolls forward and into the legs of Kandis. Kandis turns as we cut backstage to see Josh Hudson pinning Asher Hayes.

Hayes kicks out. Back in the ring, Kandis reaches down and grabs Datura and pulls her up, but Datura hits a jawbreaker before Kandis turns around and into Syren who hits a Bittersweet Ending. The crowd ohs. We then cut to the floor by the stage to see Adam Allocco making a getaway. We cut to see Xander Valentine looking around before turning and following. Syren turns and sees this, but just then, Datura nails her with a shot.

Sharper: “Kandis down quick. No one for the cover as Syren and Datura fighting.”

Knots: “Adam Allocco…where did he go?”

Sharper: “I don’t know, but Xander’s clearly on a mission. Meanwhile, the ring filling up as Kim now is looking under the ring.”

Kim grabs a chair and throws it into the ring. It nearly lands on Kandis before Kim grabs another chair and throws it in. Datura then turns and throws Syren face first into the top turnbuckle. Cassie Wolfe slides in as does YUYO before Penguin. Kim then pulls out a barbed wire board and lifts it up. The crowd roars. She places it against the barricade before turning and looking under the ring. She crawls underneath as we see Penguin and YUYO and Wolfe and Datura trade blows. Kandis stirs as Syren winces in the ring. Owen rolls into the ring and we see The One looking down before starting to walk forward to the ring, a bit more cautious. She looks around as we cut to see YUYO and Wolfe both getting the advantage. They both go to whip their opponents into the ropes, but both spin through. Penguin and Datura stop at the ropes. YUYO runs at Penguin, but Penguin backdrops her. Wolfe runs at Datura. Datura goes to do the same, but Wolfe stops and then hits a backflips kick. Datura goes up and over. The crowd ohs. Wolfe then turns as Syren rolls her up for a school boy.

Penguin breaks it up. Syren looks over at him. Penguin then gets up and stomps Syren in the side once and then again before Owen hits a discus clothesline. Penguin goes down. Owen then looks around. He then turns as Syren starts to get up. Owen and Syren look at one another. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Syren and Owen Cruze. Face to face.”

Knots: “And this crowd’s up for it!”

Syren and Owen lunge and both start to trade blows as the crowd roars. Syren then gets the advantage with a couple of forearm shots before she backs up, but Owen ducks a clothesline. She hits the ropes and Owen jumps up and hits a frankensteiner. Owen turns as Kandis runs over and hits a diving dropkick. The crowd ohs. Kandis then smiles seeing Owen as The One looks at YUYO down on the floor and grabs her and runs her face first into the steel steps. YUYO falls back. The crowd ohs. The One goes for the pin.

Wolfe dives through the ropes, doing a front flip and hits a flipping senton to the back of The One. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “What a break up. And Cassie Wolfe just helped YUYO!”

Knots: “Prevented the pin in a big way. Jesus!”

Sharper: “No one can doubt her talent. If she can just focus, my God!”

Wolfe rolls through. She then dives onto The One and rolls her over.

The One kicks out. Wolfe looks up. Just then, we see Kandis stomping away on Owen Cruze. She starts to choke him with her boot. Demitra asks for a break, but Kandis just flips him off before Syren runs up and rolls her up with a school boy.

Kandis kicks out. Both get up and Penguin suddenly runs past both, clotheslining both before then diving over the top rope and taking down The One, Cassie Wolfe and YUYO on the floor! The crowd erupts again.

Sharper: “Penguin over the top!”

Knots: “At least he looked this time! Not like at Retribution!”

Sharper: “And without Lexy Chapel too. Where is she?”

Syren turns and nails Kandis with a forearm shot. She then kicks her in the ribs before hooking her up by the head. Syren hoists Kandis up and Kandis spins through lands behind Syren. She grabs her with a back suplex, but Owen dropkicks Syren and Kandis suplexes Syren back. The crowd ohs. Kim then crawls out from under the ring, finding the staple gun Owen kicked out. She smiles as she grabs at it. She then kisses it before looking at the crowd mischievously. Owen then turns as Kandis rakes his eyes. Kandis runs into the ropes and forearms Owen. Owen falls back into the ropes and Kandis goes to scoop him up, but Owen spins through and lands behind her. He pulls on the back of her pants and Kandis falls back and through the ropes. She starts to get up and Kim turns, seeing the notable buttocks of Kandis. Kim turns and taps her chin.

Knots: “Oh God…is this fate?!”

Sharper: “You do get a fall for ass-stapling. And Kim has a staple gun.”

Knots: “And you can’t miss Kandis’s ass!”

Kim then looks at the staple gun, firing it to make sure it still works. She then steps up and goes to extend the staple gun, but Owen jumps up and dropkicks Kandis off the apron and into Kim. The crowd ohs. Owen then turns around as we see Konrad Raab staggering down the rampway. Owen then runs across the ring, bouncing off and then diving over the top rope with a huge flip dive onto Konrad, taking him down.

Sharper: “And Owen taking a shot. Going over the top. Landing on Konrad!”

Knots: “The World Champion fighting right now like he’ll lose it all!”

Owen rolls through and turns and dives onto Konrad.

The crowd roars.

Sharper: “And Owen gets a fall as Konrad throwing himself off the stage and then now with Owen diving on him.”

Knots: “And this is just starting!”

Sharper: “You’re right its just starting. We have to take a break. We’ll catch you up on anything missed during the commercials. This wild match is just starting!”

Owen starts to get up as Syren slowly gets up in the ring. She then starts to climb up to the top rope and sees YUYO, The One, Penguin, and Wolfe on the floor. Owen starts to get up and steps forward as Syren dives off with a corkscrew plancha onto the group. The crowd erupts as the scene fades to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as a leaderboard comes up on the screen. There we see the following:

Owen Cruze – 1 fall

Josh Hudson – 1 fall

Kandis – 1 fall

Glory Braddock – 1 fall

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. As you can see, fast and furious action taking place as we only saw Owen get a fall before the commercial break. But we have some replays here as cameras and officials have caught a few more. First, Kandis…”

Knots: “Yeah, you see Kandis here, just grabbing Konrad Raab and kicking him in the jaw as he turns. Konrad went down. He’s taken a lot of damage.”

DURING THE COMMERCIAL BREAK:

We see Kandis staggering up and Konrad nails YUYO with a shot and then Wolfe before turning around as Kandis hits the Starmaker. The crowd ohs. She goes for the pin.

Kandis rolls off and looks around, head on a swivel. We then see Kim starting to get up. She winces. The Breakdown logo comes up again.

We then cut backstage. Asher Hayes is shown nailing Josh Hudson with a clothesline before turning around and grabbing Hudson. He then hooks him up by the head, but Glory Braddock then rolls him up and with a school boy.

Hayes rolls over and turns stunned.

Sharper: “And then Glory Braddock, Asher Hayes and Josh Hudson, who were fighting backstage. They all continued to fight and Hayes got the pin there.”

Knots: “But then watch this suplex. No way this is a good landing.”

He gets up and Braddock hits a quick dropkick. Braddock then turns around as Hudson grabs Braddock and hits a German suplex into a storage crate. The crowd ohs as Braddock hits the top and rolls to the floor. Hudson goes for the pin.

Hudson rolls off. He looks around. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

The scene opens up backstage as we see La Pequena Luz and Amelia Blythe talking backstage. They take a deep breath.

Blythe: “Alright. We need to do this. Then you know our plan. And we’ll see how it goes.”

Blythe and Luz nod before heading to one of the locker rooms. They take another deep breath before opening the door and stepping inside. The camera follows as Deanna Frost is inside and gets Selena’s attention. Selena looks up as Blythe and Luz step over to them.

Deanna: “Do we need to be concerned-“

Blythe: “You know we are not here to jump you or anything like that. That runs counter to everything we stand for.”

Selena: “Deanna’s just concerned. Tonight is a big night.”

Luz: “Admittedly, I’m surprised you’ve not yet joined the fight.”

Selena: “Deanna and I have elected to take a moment to allow the more overzealous and less savory individuals to step up. People know where to find us.”

Deanna: “And we’ll do what we need to to retain our titles.”

Luz: “Well about that…”

Blythe sighs.

Blythe: “You both were right. What you said to us before Retribution. We weren’t ready.”

Selena: “Amelia-“

Blythe: “No. We weren’t ready. And so we wanted to come to you, face to face, and tell you that. But that we’re not going anywhere. But we’re also not going to demand a rematch or anything. In fact, while you hold those titles, we won’t challenge you.”

Luz: “And in fact, even if you don’t hold those titles, we won’t challenge for the titles.”

Deanna: “Amelia…Luz…”

Luz holds up her hand.

Luz: “Allow us to finish…we won’t challenge for them until you tell us we’re ready.”

Selena: “Me?”

Blythe: “We respect what you stand for. The integrity of the championship. And frankly tonight…tonight’s going to be a chaotic night and it will likely have some disappointment. But it’s not going to change what we have planned.”

Deanna: “And what if you earn the World Tag Titles somehow. Get enough pins.”

Luz: “We’ll worry about that then. If we hold the titles, the first thing we will do is demand we face you both to determine whether we should hold it. But we’re realists. The odds are not in either of our favours.”

Blythe: “All the more reason we need to stick with what we know what to do…wrestle.”

Blythe and Luz then extend their hands. Selena looks at them and shakes Luz’s hand, then Amelia’s. Deanna follows.

Blythe: “Now let’s get to work.”

Selena and Deanna nod as Blythe and Luz turn and head off.

Sharper: “Respect being shown here. Light in the Darkness showing their respect to Selena Frost.”

Knots: “After a classic at Retribution. And tonight, all of it could just go sideways with the chaos. But what do Luz and Blythe mean about doing things their way. They said they had a plan.”

Sharper: “They did. We’ll find out, I’m sure, but meanwhile, we have an update. As let’s go back to the leaderboard.”

Breakdown returns as a leaderboard comes up on the screen. There we see the following:

Kandis – 3 falls

Josh Hudson – 2 falls

Owen Cruze – 1 fall

Glory Braddock – 1 fall

Cassie Wolfe – 1 fall

Knots: “Whoa!”

Sharper: “And people have moved from the ringside area…”

MOMENTS AGO:

We see shots of Datura attacking The One backstage, as we then see YUYO running across with Cassie Wolfe. YUYO runs over and yells out.

YUYO: “PRINCESS REBELLION!”

YUYO is knocked down by Willow Aspen who catches her, hitting a sweep kick. YUYO falls hard and rolls over. Willow gets up and turns and boots Crystal Zdunich as we see her fighting only for Willow to turn and Cassie Wolfe to run forward and jump off a storage crate and hitting her with the GOOOALLL! Willow falls back. Wolfe then dives off and hits a moonsault. She goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Cassie Wolfe is showing her agility. This could be a match that is career-defining for her. The amazing agility. The boot. The moonsault.”

Knots: “And she’s on the board!”

Wolfe rolls off before we see Datura shoves back by The One who turns and Kandis nails her with a steel chair. The One goes down as Kandis then goes for the pin.

Kandis turns as Wolfe runs over at her only for Kandis to throw the chair in her face.

Sharper: “While Kandis using a chair. Weapons legal and the blindsides plus the fact that Kandis is making sure she’s getting all of these shots. There’s on The One. Then the Wolfe.”

Knots: “And Zdunich tried, but I think Kandis came to make a statement after beating Simon Lyman at Retribution. And she wants this night to be hers.”

Sharper: “The Open Invitational, what Kandis won, is similar to this. Slightly different rules. And she’s using the awareness brilliantly!”

Zdunich then runs to the storage crate and jumps off, turning to go for a jumping hurricanrana, but Kandis hits a vicious powerbomb on the floor. The crowd ohs.

The crowd ohs. The Breakdown logo comes up before we cut to see Josh Hudson getting attacked by Glory Braddock. Braddock then grabs the arm and slams it into the wall. Hudson winces as Hayes runs over and boots Glory in the ribs and then elbows Hudson. Hayes turns and grabs Hudson when suddenly we see Colleen running over and clotheslining Glory down. This is followed by Hayes hoisting Hudson onto his shoulders, but Colleen runs at him and chopblocks him. Hayes goes down.

Sharper: “And then Colleen! Helping Hudson! Still on this!”

Knots: “She had something with him. Hudson, at first, didn’t notice.”

Sharper: “And she took Hayes out by the leg. And that could be a big handicap for him!”

He winces and turns as Colleen grabs at the leg. Hudson then goes for the cover, ignoring the situation.

Hudson rolls off as Colleen continues to attack Hayes’s legs as Hudson turns and looks at her. The Breakdown logo comes up.

Sharper: “And we can see as we return to a live shot, here’s what’s left out here at ringside.”

Knots: “Yeah, at the moment, Syren is still in the ring, perhaps realizing that there is lots of time.”

Sharper: “And the strategy has to play a role. But Owen Cruze, he headed to the back. Kimberly Williams went through the crowd. You can see at ringside the staple gun.”

We cut to the ring to see Syren stretching in the ring, pacing. At ringside, meanwhile, we then cut to see the staple gun Kim had, it’s noticeably broken.

Sharper: “And that staple gun broken. Kim just needs one fall to become Underground Champion.”

Knots: “Konrad Raab went to the back. We saw Wolfe, YUYO, Datura. They’re all back there.”

Sharper: “And we’re still trying to track people down. We know Bree Lancaster, she’s here.”

Knots: “Our director will be earning his paycheque tonight.”

Sharper: “As we said – cameras everywhere. Referee’s every.”

We abruptly cut backstage to see Datura heading down one hallway, clearly frustrated with herself. The camera focuses on her before turning as we see Kandis fighting with YUYO and going to run her into the wall. YUYO blocks it and elbows out of it. We cut abruptly to another part of the backstage area, where Josh Hudson looks at Colleen.

Colleen: “-I’m not going to go away!”

Hudson: “So you’re going to be here. In MY way.”

Colleen: “NO! I’m here to help you. I’m here to make sure you keep your title. I have my reasons.”

Hudson: “I’ve got a partner. Screw off-“

Colleen: “And I just want to talk.”

Hudson then stops.

Hudson: “Then fine…prove it. Lie down.”

Colleen: “Not interested in that tonight-“

Hudson: “No. Lie down. You were on the list. Let’s run it up.”

Colleen smirks. She then slowly lies down to her back. Hudson then steps forward and places his foot on her chest.

Sharper: “Oh my God! Hudson….no! You have more pride than that!”

Knots: “Or he doesn’t and he wants to walk out champion. He can repair the integrity later in the ring.”

Sharper: “Right off using a chair to retain the US Title by DQ at Retribution against Hayes.”

The crowd boos as Hudson smirks. He then steps off before stepping again on Colleen.

The crowd boos again. Hudson goes for a third.

Braddock runs over and nails him from behind. Hudson falls over and down to the floor.

Sharper: “Braddock breaking it up as Hudson now takes the lead in the numbers – four falls! Three thanks to Colleen in some way or another!”

Knots: “Use what you can!”

Sharper: “And Braddock breaking it up!”

Braddock turns and runs over and stomps away on Hudson. Colleen gets up and turns as she grabs Braddock and pulls her away from Hudson. Glory rolls through. Colleen turns and runs forward and Braddock kicks her in the ribs before hooking her up and hitting a snap suplex on the floor. Braddock turns and stomps away on Colleen. The crowd cheers some more before Hudson slowly gets up. We then see Hayes fighting up, wincing in pain. Hudson runs over and grabs Glory from behind. As she does, we then see Selena Frost running into the scene and nailing Hudson from behind. Hudson rolls over. Deanna runs into the scene too. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “And Selena Frost! Deanna Frost coming in as Hudson was going to take down Glory again!”

Knots: “Not like Glory and Selena have been in the best of relationships as of late.”

Selena and Deanna turn as Glory starts to get up. Selena then turns looks at her before Hudson starts to stir. Colleen gets up too. She then looks around before gritting her teeth.

Colleen: “Josh! Leave!”

Hudson: “Screw that!”

Hudson turns and swings at Selena. Selena blocks it and hooks his arm before throwing him at Deanna. Deanna kicks him in the ribs and Selena then hits a shoot kick to the back and Deanna then takes him down with a Lou Thesz Press. She stays on him.

Glory turns and sees Selena. Selena watches her as Hayes starts to get up. Colleen then turns and runs at Deanna. Selena then kicks her in the ribs. Glory backs up and looks around as Hayes starts to get up, limping and Glory sighs. She then steps over and grabs his leg and takes him down. She then moves into position for a kneebar!

Sharper: “Colleen helping Hudson here. House of Frost going after Hudson and Colleen.”

Knots: “And Braddock going for the leg of Hayes!”

Hayes yells out in pain. Braddock pulls back before Hayes taps out.

Sharper: “And you have to tap. No rope break backstage. And you can’t risk further injury!”

Knots: “That’s the thing. You almost want to immediately tap. Injured or not.”

Braddock then looks at Hayes before keeping the hold on.

Sharper: “But nothing says the hold needs to be released!”

Hayes yells in pain as Glory briefly releases the hold only to put it back on. But just then, we see Aisling running over and stomping Glory in the face. Glory winces and rolls over. Aisling stomps her over and over.

Sharper: “And now there’s another Playgirl! Aisling attacking Glory!”

Knots: “Helping Colleen in her goals or for her own reasons!”

Sharper: “I don’t know, but-“

Just then we cut to the ring as Syren looks up. All of a sudden, the lights go out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans. “Die For You” by Starset begins to play, the LED screens flickering to life to show a large wisteria tree in front of a starry night sky with a beautiful moon, the stars seeming like they’re slowly shifting and dancing around as petals from the tree fall and gracefully glide through the sky. One spotlight comes to life on the left side of the stage from the camera’s perspective, revealing Amelia Blythe standing underneath it, eyes focused on the ring and a small smile on her lips as her hands are folded in front of her, giving her the look of a proper young lady. A second spotlight comes to life on the right side of the stage, revealing La Pequeña Luz standing underneath it with the kind of grin that could light up a room all on its own as she motions with her hands for the fans to get pumped up, which they immediately proceed to do.

Sharper: “Light in the Darkness heading to the ring. Syren is alone.”

Knots: “This doesn’t seem like them. I can’t see them doing two versus one?”

IN THE RING:

Syren nods as we see Amelia and Luz do their usually entrance. They waltz down to the ring, seemingly as if they are formally entering the match. Slowly, the two release one another, the single spotlight splitting in two again as Amelia makes her way up the steps to walk across the apron on one side, wiping her feet before stepping through the ropes. Luz, meanwhile, hops up onto the apron right in front of her and grabs the top rope before vaulting herself into a somersault into the ring, landing on her feet. She moves to the center of the ring and drops to her knees, cupping her hands together in front of her while Amelia stands right behind her, hands folded before her once again. As Luz lifts her cupped hands upward, the arena lights slowly begin to come back on as Amelia takes her hands and pulls her to her feet, spinning her around one final time into a tight embrace and a soft kiss before the two move to their corner to prepare for battle, with both girls shedding their robes and Amelia also removing her mask.

BACKSTAGE:

We see Aisling then turn and grab Glory and lift her up and run her into the wall. She falls over. Asher Hayes slides back, holding his leg and then starting to drag himself off. Deanna and Selena both grab Colleen and then hit a double vertical suplex on the floor. Colleen turns as Aisling stops and looks at them. Selena and Deanna get up and look at them. Aisling just holds her hands up. Hudson then gets up and nails Selena with a hard right and then nails Deanna in the back of the head.

Sharper: “Aisling not attacking the Frosts!”

Knots: “She’s backing down! And Hudson! Hudson attacking!”

Sharper: “While Light in the Darkness come to the ring. They’re standing against Syren.”

We cut to the ring as Amelia turns and looks at Syren. Luz turns to Syren too. Blythe nods before backing up and going to move to the corner. Just as she does, she stops as without warning we see black and white footage spring to life on the screen of Winston Churchill giving one of his most famous speeches, all the while the chilling sound of air raid sirens and war can be heard in the background...

"We shall fight on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing grounds. We shall fight in the fields, and in the streets. We shall fight in the hills. We shall NEVER surrender!"

The video suddenly burns away to reveal a second hidden image of the devious ex-president George H. W. Bush giving a speech of his own...

"When we are successful, and we will be, we'll have a real chance at this new world order..."

A record scratch interrupts the normal Infamous introduction, only for the sound of Cute Is What We Aim For’s hit to begin around the arena. Syren turns to the stage as do Blythe and Luz.

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

The opening to “Misery Business” by Paramore suddenly hits the PA system as the spotlights on the stage flash between pink and white. We then see Ravyn Taylor walking out from the back, smirking. Alexander Crowe stands with her.

Sharper: “Wait a minute! Dark Fantasy’s music!”

Knots: “She’s still on this!”

Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor coming out. Light in the Darkness is here….wait…are we getting a Dark Fantasy reunion tonight?!”

Knots: “Oh boy…”

Sharper: “And we need to take a break. When we return…we could be seeing a hell of a fight in the ring, while chaos is going all around!”

The scene fades to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

DURING THE BREAK:

We see a still of one of the back doors to the Rogers Place opening.

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Chaos still taking place. But we have a big development here. Guess who finally arrived!”

The still starts to move as we see Ace Marshall walking into the building. He steps forward, wearing tonight a Konrad Raab hoodie. He looks around as he starts to walk forward and past the camera.

Knots: “And wearing a Konrad Raab hoodie now. Why not? After he cost him a match at Retribution. Why? Who the hell knows?”

Sharper: “Ace Marshall arriving alone though.”

Ace Marshall continues to head down the hallway. The camera remaining in place. Ace turns the corner before we hear some racket as the door flies open again. The camera pivots as Lexy Chapel steps in. She looks around.

Chapel: “Where did he go? Ace! ACE!”

Chapel starts to jog into the building as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

Sharper: “Meanwhile, as this has all been going on, we have more to report from backstage, but the story is in the ring! Dark Fantasy is in the ring. Light in the Darkness too.”

We see Ravyn Taylor standing with Syren. Syren just shakes her head, uncertain of what to say. Ravyn tries to plead her case as Luz and Blythe stand across the ring, ready to compete. Syren turns to them, trying to apologize before Luz and Blythe turn to one another.

Sharper: “Syren trying to talk to Ravyn. Sorry, Ravyn trying to talk to Syren.”

Knots: “The fans here loving this. The return of Dark Fantasy. But we know Ravyn Taylor has certain ideas of what that entails.”

Sharper: “And it’s not what Syren wants.”

Knots: “It’s two on two right now though!”

Blythe steps up as Syren turns to Ravyn and tells her to leave the ring. Ravyn backs up, hands up and turns. Syren then turns and steps up and Blythe and her lock up. They push back on one another and Syren turns and moves into an arm wrench before suddenly Ravyn turns and throws powder into the eyes of Blythe. The crowd ohs and Blythe drops down, in pain, to a knee. Syren lets go and turns as Luz turns and runs at Blythe to check on her. Syren turns to Ravyn as Ravyn backs up. Syren turns around and checks on Blythe as Luz then turns and steps forward to Ravyn, but as she grabs her, Ravyn suddenly pulls something out and Luz starts to spasm before falling to the mat down. Ravyn backs up, revealing a stun gun. The crowd boos loudly as Syren turns and looks at her. Blythe rolls over, swinging.

Sharper: “Ravyn using powder on Blythe. Stun gun on Luz!”

Knots: “And Syren is losing it. But look at Ravyn, she’s pointing at Luz!”

Sharper: “She’s handing her pins! Falls!”

Ravyn points to Luz as Syren turns and looks at the stun gun and grabs it. She looks at it. She then shakes her head no and throws it down. The crowd cheers a bit as Ravyn throws her arms out and talks to Syren. The two get heated as Luz continues to spasm before we then see The One coming out from the back and looking up. She winces and bit and runs down to the ring. Ravyn turns to Syren and grabs her. She looks at Syren’s eyes and Syren shoves her back, continuing to yell at her. The One then slides into the ring and looks over at Dark Fantasy before diving over to Luz and covering her.

The crowd boos.

Sharper: “The One coming in and picking up the pieces as Ravyn and Syren have this argument over tactics!”

Knots: “This is the ultimate test. Syren wants to be World Champion, this is a match made for Infamous!”

Sharper: “And inside The One picking up the pieces!”

Syren turns at this point as The One gets up. Blythe gets up and staggers forward and swings at The One. The One ducks and then kicks her in the ribs. The crowd boos as The One then spins her into the corner. Syren runs over and grabs The One from behind. The One turns and forearms her. Syren fires back. Ravyn then steps up and then quickly locks the Memento Mori on Luz and rolls through into the hold. Luz reaches out and struggles for a moment before starting to tap out, again, to avoid more damage. Ravyn lets go and rolls over.

Sharper: “Ravyn just picked up a fall!”

Knots: “Again, the quick tap out because is it worth fighting when you have bigger aims. Especially in a match where rope breaks mean nothing.”

Sharper: “And Luz could still be trying to recover full faculties after being stunned!”

Blythe starts to get up and Ravyn then turns and grabs Luz and places her on her stomach. She starts to struggle as Ravyn then steps over, going for a camel clutch of sorts. Blythe then gets up and runs over and clotheslines Ravyn from behind. Ravyn falls through the ropes to the floor. Syren meanwhile sends The One into the corner. Syren runs after and The One gets a boot up. Syren stumbles out. The One then runs out and goes for a knee, but Blythe turns and walks into it. The crowd ohs. The One turns around and Syren jumps up and hits a hurricanrana into a pin.

The One kicks out.

Sharper: “Blythe still recovering from the powder in the eyes!”

Knots: “Saved Luz, but now, dealing with The One and Syren in the ring and collateral damage!”

Ravyn stumbles forward and backs off as Crowe heads over to her, almost trying to convince her as we cut to see Syren nailing The One with a series of forearm shots to the jaw. She gets up and turns as Blythe and Luz start to pull themselves up. Syren grabs The One and turns and pulls her up and whips her into the ropes. The One bounces off and Syren drops down, but just then, Luz hits a high knee. The One staggers as Blythe spins around her and hits a snap release German suplex. The crowd ohs. The One rolls through as Syren then steps up and forearms Luz before turning and forearming Blythe. She then jumps to the middle rope and dives back, but Luz and Blythe both step up and catch her and hold her up before throwing her back into a backflip into a double knee. The crowd ohs as Syren rolls back, holding her ribs.

Sharper: “And Light in the Darkness showing their teamwork.”

Knots: “And they have their honour and pride and integrity. But they’re going to have to put some of that aside in this environment.”

Sharper: “Two on two in the ring.”

Ravyn then turns and sees the barbed wire board still set up before turning and reaching under the ring. She grabs a steel chair. The crowd roars as she then walks over and places it on the apron and looks at Syren. Ravyn then holds her arm up and turns, starting to walk to the back. Crowe glances back before following Ravyn. Syren turns and pushes the chair to the floor before Blythe and Luz then walk over and reach out to her. Syren reaches up and they pull her up. They then talk to her.

Knots: “The hell is this. Clock her!”

Sharper: “Light in the Darkness pulling Syren up after she pushed away that chair that Ravyn left for her.”

Knots: “At least Ravyn is getting out of here.”

Syren then talks to Blythe and Luz. Syren points to Luz. Luz nods as Blythe backs up and turns as The One starts to get up and Blythe pulls her up and moves her to the corner. Syren and Luz then lock up. The crowd roars. Ravyn then turns and starts to head back to the ring. We then see Kelsai Adamson and Chance Owens walking out. Adamson says something to Owens before the two run down to the ring. Ravyn Taylor slides into the ring as Syren goes to send Luz into the ropes. Luz spins through and sends Syren in. Syren bounces off. Luz drops down and Syren suddenly spins around Ravyn as she gets up and rolls her up with a school boy!

Ravyn rolls over as Syren then looks at her. Ravyn smirks as Syren just rolls her eyes and snaps at her. Ravyn then turns and forearms Luz in the jaw. Luz stumbles back. Blythe whips The One across the ring. The One hits opposite side. Ravyn then turns and grabs the One, sending her into Syren, who instinctively hits a hip toss. Ravyn then turns as Blythe runs over and hits a dropkick, knocking her down.

Sharper: “Ravyn back in and did she take the fall? Did she game it knowing Syren would respond?”

Knots: “Regardless, she’s still here and its taking Syren off her game!”

Owens and Kelsai slide in. Syren then turns and Owens nails her in the ribs as Kelsai steps up and runs over and nails Luz with a shot. Blythe turns and grabs Ravyn, working on her.

Sharper: “And the ring now filling up. But we have to get to some highlights here. We’ll keep an eye on things. Chaos all around.”

Knots: “Yeah, I’m looking at the reports we’re getting. We need to update people on what’s happened!”

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We cut backstage where Selena Frost and Deanna Frost are fighting Colleen and send her into the wall. Deanna turns as Josh Hudson clotheslines her down before stepping up and forearming Selena in the jaw. Selena staggers back before we see Jamison Logan running into the scene and grabbing Colleen and throwing her down, going for a pin attempt.

Colleen kicks out and turns as Aisling comes over and nails Logan, knocking him down. She then runs him into a storage crate. Logan falls over and turns.

Sharper: “Jamison Logan trying to get involved here. We’re now backstage and the Frosts fighting. Aisling with Colleen. Hudson still a focus!”

Knots: “And Hudson here. Just gets overwhelmed by the Frosts. Almost getting into a fight that doesn’t help him. Even with Colleen helping him.”

Aisling tries to get Selena and Deanna’s attention, but just then, Hudson grabs Selena and pulls her into a waistlock. Deanna then jumps up with a knee to the back. Hudson grimaces and Selena backs up and superkicks Hudson in the jaw into a German suplex by Deanna.

The crowd roars. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then cut to see Logan fighting back on Colleen before turning and hitting a running Bull Rush on Diamond Steele who has joined the fight. Steele rolls over and turns as Selena suddenly locks in the Frost Bite. Diamond yells out as Logan turns to stop it, but Aisling grabs him and shoves him forward. Logan goes hard into the wall. Diamond starts to tap. Selena lets go and rolls back. She turns and looks around at Deanna as they nod and then turn and head off. Hudson starts to get up as Colleen works over Logan now. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

Sharper: “Diamond Steele looking to get involved. Hoping to get involved. Not going to want to turn down a title opportunity, but in the process, thanks to Jamison Logan, left out to dry for Selena.”

Knots: “And Selena picks up her first fall. And by submission.”

We cut to another part of the backstage area where we see Glory Braddock trying to take Hairless Penguin down to the floor with a crossface. Penguin keeps fighting as we then see Polly Playtime running over and kicks Glory in the face. Glory rolls over as she looks up, stunned before Polly runs over and dropkicks her back. Glory rolls back and turns as Polly smirks. She then gets up and grabs Glory. Just then, as Penguin gets up, we see the boot of Kandis come up and nail him from the side. Penguin falls down to the mat. Kandis goes for the pin, coming into camera view.

The crowd boos as Kandis rolls off.

Sharper: “Kandis with another fall. This one on Hairless Penguin who is trying to do anything to stand out. And without Lexy, he can fight as he wishes, but he’s not got the support he’s leaned on.”

Knots: “Where the hell is Bear? I figured they’d be working together? And Lexy, clearly not focused on Penguin.”

Sharper: “And Penguin struggling with so much chaos all around. But Kandis leading right now in pinfalls. Talk about making a statement!”

She then looks around as the scene cuts to another part of the building, this one by the back entrance where we see Owen Cruze backflipping off some scaffolding, sent in by Cassie Wolfe. Cruze backs up and Wolfe runs at him and ducks, just narrowly about to hit YUYO. YUYO stops her. They nod and Cruze then climbs up the scaffolding before diving back with a twisting crossbody onto both. He stays on Wolfe.

Owen rolls off. He then turns as YUYO and Wolfe roll over. We then see Konrad Raab running into the scene, drilling Owen with a running European uppercut. Owen staggers off as Raab steps up. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

Sharper: “And Owen with another one! This time, on Wolfe! On YUYO. Got the pin. And he’s starting work his way up.”

Knots: “Yeah, but he needs to do more. He’s right now behind for retaining his title!”

The leaderboard returns to the screen.

Kandis – 4 falls

Josh Hudson – 4 falls

Owen Cruze – 2 falls

Glory Braddock – 2 falls

Deanna Frost – 2 falls

Selena Frost – 1 fall

Cassie Wolfe – 1 fall

The One – 1 fall

Ravyn Taylor – 1 fall

Syren – 1 fall

Sharper: “And there you see where we stand right now and…”

Knots: “In the ring!”

We cut to a live shots as Syren hits Kelsai Adamson with the Total Makeover. She moves into a pin.

Syren rolls off. Owens then runs over and clubs her in the back once and then again. He whips Syren into the ropes. Syren bounces off and Owens hits a spinebuster. Owens then gets up as Luz runs up behind him and Blythe hits a diving European Uppercut, leading to the Wisteria Waltz on Owens.

Sharper: “Wisteria Waltz! Owens caught. And just as Kelsai got in and quickly overwhelmed by Syren. There’s a level of instinct here.”

Knots: “And Blythe going for the pin. Only one can get it!”

Luz then rolls through as Blythe rolls through for the pin.

Blythe rolls off. She gets up and The One nails her with a running knee to the back of the head. Blythe falls forward to the mat.

Sharper: “The One from behind! Cover!”

The One rolls her over with a head cradle into a pin.

The One rolls through and turns and Luz runs at her and jumps up and hits the La Magica.

Knots: “And then Luz!”

Sharper: “La Magica!”

Knots: “Jesus! Everything takes risk and The One, thinking about fighting it off….no. Realizing that’s stupid!”

Sharper: “Not risking a fractured or broken arm for a fall!”

The One goes down, gritting her teeth, trying not to tap before relenting, realizing she can’t do much. The crowd roars. Luz rolls off and turns as Blythe stirs. Syren rolls over too. Ravyn starts to get up as Ravyn then steps up and grabs Luz and hits an arm hook pulldown neckbreaker. The crowd ohs and Ravyn turns and looks at Syren. She falls to a knee and Syren shakes her head before moving past and going over to The One who is getting up and forearms her in the jaw. Ravyn then runs over and nails The One with a shot too. Syren turns to her. Ravyn shrugs and nails the One again. Syren nails The One too.

Sharper: “Dark Fantasy. Working together. Syren almost just giving up in resisting!”

Knots: “They’re doing more than just working together! They’re back to their old ways?!”

Sharper: “Dark Makeover maybe?@”

Ravyn then spins The One around as Syren grabs The One and hoists her up by the arms. The crowd roars. Syren then spins her out as Ravyn grabs The One’s legs and they hit the Dark Makeover. The crowd erupts. Syren turns and gets up as Ravyn then turns and looks at her. Ravyn then goes for the pin.

Syren pulls her off and then rolls her up again.

Syren stops and lets go and turns, annoyed as Ravyn rolls over. Syren shakes her head as just then, Owens stirs and looks up and Kelsai pushes him forward as Chance Owens throws his arm over The One.

Sharper: “Chance! Onto the One! Taking advantage with Kelsai pushing him down!”

Owens rolls off.

Knots: “Chance in on the board. The number one contender for the Adrenaline Championship is on the board and thanks to Kelsai!”

Syren then turns as the crowd erupts as Kimberly Williams starts to walk through the crowd, holding two staple guns and with two more strapped to her chest. The camera focuses on her as she heads to the ring. Syren and Ravyn turn and look at as Owens and Kelsai then pull themselves up and both push Syren and Ravyn into the ropes and pull them back into an Okana roll.

1! 1!

2! 2!

Both kick out. Kelsai falls into the ropes as does Owens. Owens turns back to Syren who takes him over with a small package. Ravyn hits a back elbow.

Owens rolls over as Syren lets go.

Sharper: “Syren gets a fall! Small package. Just as effective.”

Knots: “And Ravyn has Kelsai!”

Sharper: “Luz! La Pequena Luz!”

Kelsai staggers before Ravyn grabs her, but Luz jumps off the ropes and hits a diving stunner. Ravyn pops back. Kelsai pops up and Blythe drills her with a European uppercut. Syren throws Ravyn out of the ring before Luz runs up behind Kelsai and hits the Lights Out. She goes for the pin.

Luz rolls off. Luz turns as Kimberly Williams climbs up over the barricade.

Sharper: “And here comes Kim! Kim geared up with multiple staple guns!”

Knots: “Jesus!”

She runs over to Ravyn and Crowe runs over and grabs Ravyn and pulls her away. Kim just fires the staple gun, staples firing out, but hitting nothing before she turns to the ring. Syren runs over and now joined by Chance Owens, the two stomping away on her before knocking off the apron. Owens then turns and hits a snap sunset flip cover.

Syren kicks out. She rolls back. Owens rolls back and Kim turns and reaches over and grabs Owens. Owens fights and Luz and Blythe then turn and Luz hits a diving pescado onto Kim. Kim falls over. Blythe grabs Owens back and snapmares him over and into Syren who hits a Golden Blonde. Owens staggers back as Blythe runs over and grabs Syren, going for a crossface chickenwing. She fights before The One runs over and jumps up and hits a double knee to the side of Syren and Blythe, knocking them down. Kim then starts to get up and looks at the One. She slides into the ring. The crowd roars as Kim runs over to Blythe and goes to go for her ass, but The One nails her in the side of the head.

Sharper: “Just chaos here. Kim trying to staple anyone! The rest fighting! Grappling! Trying to earn more falls!”

Knots: “Find a staple gun then and go to work! It’s part of Kim’s rules!”

She then turns and throws her to the apron. The One then runs across the ring and boots Syren back down for good measure before turning and running at Kim, but Kim catches her and hooks her up and then hip tosses her over the top rope, hooking her head and hitting a hip toss into a neckbreaker off the apron and both go into the barbed wire board!

Sharper: “Oh! Oh! That board! Kim set it up. She used it!”

Knots: “And The One and Williams just destroyed and Kim has to like it!”

Sharper: “Like it in one sense. If The One remains tangled, Kim has an easy fall. She’s got four staple guns on her.”

Knots: “Did she have an armoury somewhere? All of staple guns.”

Sharper: “Home Depot is out of staple guns in Edmonton!”

Knots: “Have to go to Canadian Tire!”

The crowd roars.

We then cut backstage where we see Datura pacing backstage as Bree Lancaster grabs her and stops her.

Datura: “Look…I…”

Bree: “Stop. You need to stop this. You’re spiraling. You went out there earlier and just went after anyone. I know…James got to you. But you’re not alone!”

Datura: “I…and you’re here. You’re not defending your title. You’re helping me-“

Bree: “I don’t mind! I have a title rematch for the Adrenaline Championship. The World Tag Team Championships…we have a shot at that. That’s not going to change no matter what. Me watching my friend lose it…that’s what I care about.”

Bree looks at Datura as Datura nods and takes a few deep breaths.

Datura: “I can’t keep letting you down-“

Bree: “You’re not.”

Bree looks at Datura.

Bree: “If we need to focus on you tonight, then we will. We’ll go and find a quiet place. We’ll talk. Get your mind off it.”

Datura shakes her head.

Datura: “No…no…what I want…we’re making sure you walk out here at least still the Adrenaline Champion.”

The crowd roars hearing this.

Bree: “Then…let’s finally have our first tag match and show what we can do.”

Datura: “Not too late?”

Bree: “Half the show to go. Lot’s of time.”

Bree and Datura nod and both turn and head off.

Sharper: “Looks like finally we may see the Adrenaline Champion involved. We now know why she’s been quiet so far.”

Knots: “But what about Adam? What about Xander? He ran out of here. What about Ace? We know Ace Marshall is here.”

Sharper: “And we’re trying to get cameras on people and clearly people came with plans I assume. But we will find out what’s going to happen. We do have some updates and we have one…let’s go backstage. This happened while we were following action in the ring.”

MOMENTS AGO:

We see Asher Hayes wincing as he leans against the wall. We see Dean Black checking on him with the trainer.

Hayes: “Tweaked it….Damn it…”

Hayes winces and steps forward, clearly favouring his leg before leaning back.

Black: “We need to get you to the trainer’s room-“

Just then, Kandis runs over and nails Asher from the side. Hayes falls over and Kandis steps in and stomps him over and over and over again. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “You see Asher Hayes clearly in pain after the chopblock and Braddock’s submission.”

Knots: “Even with the quick tap, Asher Hayes clearly wanted to kick ass and chew bubblegum. He’s going to have to focus on the bubblegum!”

Sharper: “And remember, Kandis lost to Asher. And clearly an opportunity for revenge!”

Hayes covers up as the trainer and Black try to pull her off. She then shoves them back. Hayes pushes up and swings, falling over and Kandis turns and just jumps up and lands hard on Hayes’ leg. Hayes yells out. Kandis then turns and locks in a single leg crab. Hayes starts to tap out as Kandis pulls back. Black calls it and then pushes him off. Hayes rolls over, holding his leg in pain. Kandis then steps forward.

Kandis: “Now you can take his dumb ass. I got what I wanted!”

The crowd boos as Kandis walks off. Black and the trainer check on Hayes as she grabs at the leg.

Sharper: “And Kandis – another fall. Now in the lead. And at the expense of an injured Asher Hayes!”

Knots: “Is there a way to bow out? I don’t know.”

The Breakdown logo comes up as we see Konrad Raab throwing a trash can into Owen Cruze. Cruze goes down. Konrad then turns and catches YUYO who jumps on him. YUYO hammers away on Konrad before he bends over. YUYO continues to hammer away and Konrad lifts her up and shoves her back. Wolfe then runs over and nails him with a hard right and then another and another. Owen then gets up and grabs the trash can and staggers up as we see Penguin now on the top of some scaffolding.

Sharper: “Penguin! Off the top! And again, unlike Retribution, he hits!”

Knots: “Took everyone down, but wait! Owen! Owen Cruze is there!”

He dives off and nails Raab, YUYO and Wolfe. He rolls through and Owen nails him in the face with the end of the can. Penguin falls to a knee and pops up only for Owen to hit him again with the trash can. Penguin falls back and Owen goes for the pin.

Owen rolls off and turns as he gets up and looks out and nods. Selena Frost and Deanna Frost walk into the scene. Owen looks up and nods. Owen then motions to them. Selena steps up and nails Owen with a hard right. Selena first back.

Sharper: “Selena and Deanna now there. More and more fighting backstage. We know Bree is involved. Ace is around. Will he get involved?”

They trade blows while Deanna stands at the side. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

We cut to a live shot to see Kim trying to staple The One in her buttocks. The One holds her arms up as Kim keeps trying to turn the gun. She manages to staple The One’s elbow pad in the process as both are in the barbed wire. The One then headbutts Kim. Kim headbutts her. They keep struggling before The One pulls the staple gun and throws it away and rolls out of the barbed wire. She grimaces in pain as Kim rolls out too.

Sharper: “Kim trying to get to The One. The One fighting off.”

Knots: “All while still in the barbed wire! Well now they’re out!”

Sharper: “And another staple gun gone.”

Kim: “God damn it! Just let me STAPLE YOU!!!!!!!!”

Kim yells out as the scene fades to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see a shot of Adam Allocco who has SCW official Jennifer Cassidy handcuffed to him. He looks around as there are six men in black, all wearing Adam Allocco t-shirts nonetheless, in some area backstage. The camera is down the hallway at the door. Adam glances back briefly before turning back.

Allocco: “Thank God I’ve paid you assholes well. Xander won’t find us here. So…you know what to do. Jenn…”

Cassidy: “Do I need to be handcuffed to you?”

Allocco: “Yes! I’m making sure that you’re focusing on my falls. Not anyone elses. And all of you, we’re going to wait for the moment and go out there. Thank God you assholes were available on short notice.”

One of the men speaks up.

Man: “Well you are paying us triple our rates. We’ll take the money.”

Allocco: “Then let’s make sure I’m not touched and anyone in my way goes down so I walk out World Champion. And if you see a big jackass who wants to kill me, use lethal force if necessary!”

Another man: “Wait…we’re not-“

Allocco: “Tonight. Go for it. It’s Canada. They don’t have laws here. The cold just takes care of things. So let’s do it!”

First man: “We are Canadian. We’re local.”

Allocco: “Then for tonight, forget you are! Let’s get in the right mindset! I need to get the title. I need something going my way before I take care of the shit surrounding me, okay.”

Allocco nods as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

Sharper: “Allocco is just…I don’t know even know what to say-“

Knots: “Hey! Regardless of what he may have done to Alistaire, that’s brilliant. It’s Underground rules. Go for it!”

Sharper: “Xander Valentine still presumably looking for him. Meanwhile, if you’re wondering, as we show a shot of the ring right now…”

We see The Light in the Darkness in the ring as Syren has moved to the backstage area. The One is also no longer at ringside. Instead, we now have Kelsai Adamson and Chance Owens in the ring still. They’ve since reset. Kimberly Williams is in the process of storming to the back.

Sharper: “Light in the Darkness still there. Kelsai Adamson and Chance Owens are also here.”

Knots: “We just going to break out into a tag match. Go backstage. Find people to fight!”

Sharper: “Well there’s two ways of doing this .Wait for the fight to come to you. You’re a target or be the aggressor. And right now, the balance seems to be backstage. We’re going to go there. We’ll update you about anything out here. But let’s go backstage. Before we do, let’s bring up the current leaderboard and there were no changes during the commercial.”

The leaderboard comes up on the screen.

Kandis – 5 falls

Josh Hudson – 4 falls

Owen Cruze – 3 falls

Syren – 3 falls

Glory Braddock – 2 falls

Deanna Frost – 2 falls

Luz – 2 falls

The One – 2 falls

Selena Frost – 1 fall

Cassie Wolfe – 1 fall

Ravyn Taylor – 1 fall

Amelia Blythe – 1 fall

Chance Owens – 1 fall

Sharper: “And you can see – Kandis in line to win the World Title; Josh Hudson could retain his US Title.”

Knots: “Syren and Glory could be your tag team champions!”

Sharper: “And this is one thing we are unclear of – what happens in a tie!”

Knots: “It’s Kim. Did she think of it?”

Sharper: “I don’t know. She’s still on the hunt with three staple guns and…we said we’d go backstage. Let’s go. We’re going to catering and the kitchen?”

We cut to see YUYO with Deanna’s arm as she walks along the tables in catering, singing loudly before turning and jumping off, twisting in the air, and knocking Deanna down to the floor, ending up sitting on her chest. She stays on for the pin.

Deanna kicks out. She turns as Wolfe is thrown over a table by Owen Cruze. Owen turns as YUYO gets up and Owen grabs her, but Selena kicks Owen in the ribs with a shoot kick. He turns and Selena hits a shoot kick to the jaw. YUYO then starts to stomp on the floor. M-A-G-I-C- Selena then kicks her in the ribs and turns and goes to throw her over another table. Selena turns as we then see a plate nearly catch her in the head. It smashes against the ground. Another plate goes flying, missing Selena, before a third one, finally catches her in the chest. She ducks as the camera turns to show Ace Marshall showing plates at everyone.

Sharper: “Good God! Ace Marshall just pummelling everyone with china!”

Knots: “And Lexy Chapel is there too!”

Sharper: “Stay down!”

Lexy runs in. She looks around. She then smiles.

Lexy: “Yeah! PLATES FOR EVERYONE. Courtesy of LEXYCORP!”

Ace ignores her as Lexy now starts to throw plates everyone too. Selena, Owen, Cassie, and Deanna all keep ducking. We then see Penguin step in front behind and then quickly take a plate to the chest and he goes down. Ace then stops and runs over and as Owen starts to get up and knees him in the face. Ace then takes him over and goes for the pin.

Owen rolls over, more stunned from the shot as he turns.

Sharper: “And Ace steals a pin in this chaos!”

The crowd ohs. Lexy continues to throw plates before YUYO is heard.

YUYO: “Just-“

She stops as we hear a yell.

Wright: “EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-NOUGH!”

The camera turns as Religious Wright comes into the room. He looks around, holding a bible. YUYO looks at him before Lexy throws a plate toward her, only for YUYO to cartwheel out of the way. Wright turns to Lexy.

Wright: “Do you want to be forsaken by the LAWD?!”

Sharper: “Oh good God.”

Knots: “Yes, that’s who he is talking about!”

Wright shakes his head.

Chapel: “What? You mean Ace?”

She winks at Ace who is looking in the back, seemingly for a weapon. Just then, Wright steps forward.

Wright: “Before we continue, we should clasp our hands and receive a blessing from the LAWD!”

Wright steps forward.

Wright: “Heavenly father…before we decimate ourselves to please the matches to obtain golden trinkets, we must bow before you for your cleansing blessing for our safety. AAAAAAAAA-MEN!”

Wright then turns and suddenly backhands Penguin as he steps over to him with the Bible.

Sharper: “Oh God!”

Knots: “He smacked him with the Bible. THE POWER OF CHRIST!”

Penguin falls back and yells. Wright dives onto him.

The crowd roars as Wright gets up and laughs. He then stumbles up before he turns and Selena Frost nails him with the Glass Shard. Wright goes up and over the table and lands on his stomach.

Sharper: “God didn’t help you there! Glass Shard!”

Knots: “God damn you Selena!”

He rolls over and Selena goes for the pin.

Selena rolls over as we see Deanna then grab Owen and jump up and try to go for a guillotine choke. Lexy starts to throw plates at Selena. Selena ducks a couple as Wolfe and YUYO get up slowly. We then see Hudson move into the room. Lexy goes to grab another plate before then realizing there are no more. She then flips a bowl of salad over and then pushes over a coffee dispenser before running into the kitchen. Hudson steps up and nails Selena with a hard right and then another. The One runs into the room as she looks around and goes over to Wolfe. Owen struggles with Deanna as Deanna takes him down, before Owen then grits his teeth. Ace runs over and kicks him in the stomach. Owen drops down to the floor, Deanna still with the hold. Owen starts to tap.

Sharper: “Owen is tapping. He knows Deanna has it. And if he’s unconscious from the guillotine, how many more falls will he be down?”

Knots: “Come on ref! See it! Deanna’s not letting go until it’s recognized!”

He does for a few moments before the official notices it. Deanna lets go. She then turns as Ace knees her in the face. Ace then grabs her and runs her over and slides her across the table and she slides down to the floor. YUYO then gets up and climbs up onto the table. Wolfe runs over and dives onto Ace. Ace staggers back as Wolfe battles with him. Deanna starts to get up and YUYO dives off with a variation of a MAGICAL Knee. Deanna falls back.

Sharper: “YUYO-“

Knots: “Was there!”

YUYO goes for the pin.

YUYO rolls over and pops up. She throws her arms up. Just then, The One runs over and grabs YUYO. YUYO yelps and The One takes her down with The Silence. She pulls back on YUYO’s head as she yells. She starts to tap out as The One lets go. She turns and looks around. Wolfe then drives Ace into the table. Hudson then takes Selena over with a suplex onto a table. Selena’s driven through and Hudson turns and goes for the pin.

The One breaks it up and stomps Hudson in the face. Hudson rolls over. He rolls over again and The One grabs him before Colleen runs in and nails her with a clothesline.

Sharper: “Colleen is still helping Hudson. This is getting to be a bit much now.”

Knots: “Hudson wants some falls and everyone is congregating at catering. Not for the food for once!”

She keeps on The One as Kandis then steps up and runs over with a chair and drives it hard into Selena’s head as she stirs. Kandis then goes for the pin.

The crowd boos in the arena.

Sharper: “And Kandis stealing another win. Keeping her lead.”

Knots: “Can you believe this? We could be crowning her World Champion thanks to this!”

Kandis then turns and starts to choke Selena before turning and looking around. Deanna and Owen stir as Kandis heads over to Owen and climbs over a table and grabs him. She then runs him into the drinks table. Owen falls over. Just then, Lexy runs screaming from the kitchen. She climbs over the table and runs past Kandis and over toward Ace. We then see Konrad Raab kick open the door, holding a piece of lumber that is on fire on one end. The crowd roars as Raab turns and looks around and then sees Kandis.

Sharper: “Oh my God! Get that out of his hands! Konrad Raab with a flaming piece of lumber!”

Knots: “Get the fire marshall! What happens if this show is shut down thanks to this nut!”

Sharper: “And everyone is backing up. And he’s seen Kandis. And they have a history!”

Kandis backs up as Konrad swings toward her. He swings again and again. Kandis falls back and over the table.

Konrad: “Kandis! You-“

Konrad stops and sees Lexy by Ace. Ace looks up and shoves Lexy down as Konrad turns and runs at him. Ace’s eyes widen as Konrad runs at him and swings, hitting the wall. Ace ducks out of the way and then Konrad turns and Ace throws Wolfe at Konrad. Konrad turns and goes to swing again as Konrad kicks Wolfe. He turns as Ace backs up and Konrad sees Lexy. Lexy backs up. Ace shrugs and turns and walks off. Konrad then turns and follows after Lexy before Owen suddenly grabs the bucket of ice for the drinks and uses it to douse the flaming lumber.

Sharper: “Thank God! Owen Cruze thinking on his feet.”

Knots: “Putting him out…but Oh! Ace is going to knock him out!”

Sharper: “Second time. He did this at Retribution too!”

Raab turns and looks around as Owen then nails him in the head with the tub. He staggers back as Ace runs at him and hits the One Eyed Royal. Konrad goes down. Ace goes for the pin.

Owen checks on Lexy briefly before turning and Ace gets up and smirks at Konrad only for Owen to nail him with the Morality. He falls back, landing awkward into the tables.

Sharper: “Morality! Almost apropos!”

Knots: “And Ace landed bad. Oh my!”

Sharper: “Owen going for the pin!”

Owen goes for the pin.

Ace pushes him off and turns. Owen then rolls off as Kandis grabs him from behind, but just then, Deanna lunges and nails Kandis with the Burnout. Kandis falls back and to the floor. Selena dives onto her for the pin.

Deanna smiles before she gets up and helps Selena up.

Sharper: “Frosts now working together.”

Knots: “Selena stole the pin!”

Sharper: “Deanna doesn’t seem to angry. They’re clearly working together here.”

Just then, Datura and Bree enter the fray as Bree and Datura hit a double spear onto Selena and Deanna. Both go for the pin, but Datura rolls off of Deanna.

Sharper: “Datura and Bree enter with an explosive start! Double spear on the Tag Champs!”

Knots: “And Datura not going for the pin. She’s helping Bree!”

Datura drags Bree onto Deanna.

Bree gets up as The One throws Colleen into the corner. Bree and Datura turn as Ace crawls along the back. Wolfe turns and dives over the table, taking down Bree. Bree rolls over. Wolfe rolls through as Datura turns and grabs at her, fighting her. The One turns back as Hudson nails her in the ribs. He then hoists her up onto his shoulders. The One rakes the eyes. Hudson steps forward as The One boots him in the back and he staggers back. Wright and YUYO step forward, as Ace is helped up by Penguin.

Sharper: “Penguin helping Ace Marshall as The One trying to fight off Hudson here.”

Knots: “Oh! He just shoved Penguin!”

Ace nods as The One then runs over and jumps onto the table and hits a flip dive. Ace shoves Penguin forward and The One takes Wright, YUYO and Penguin down. Ace then turns and runs past and heads out of the room. Konrad stirs in the back as the camera swivels around to see Datura sending Wolfe into the kitchen. The camera follows.

IN THE RING:

We see Kelsai Adamson hitting a moonsault onto La Luz Pequena in the ring.

Blythe breaks it up and then rolls through. She gets up as Owens gets up and Kelsai stirs. She then heads over and joins Owens as they hammer away on Blythe. They whip her across the ring. Kelsai and Owens whip each other before Owens nails Blythe with a clothesline and then sends her into Kelsai. Kelsai lifts Blythe up, but she lands behind her. Owens runs at Blythe and Blythe lifts Kelsai up with a German suplex, causing her to kick Owens in the face. Kelsai hits the mat. Blythe gets up and turns and runs at Owens as Luz climbs to the top rope, wincing in pain. She then dives off with Illumina la Noche. She stays on her for the pin.

Blythe holds Owens back as Owens shoves Blythe out.

Datura follows after Wolfe and Wolfe grabs a pat and throws it at Datura and then a pot before grabbing a knife. She holds it up. Datura stops. Wolfe calmly puts it down, saying sorry before Datura lunges and nails Wolfe with a hard right and then another. Wolfe then blocks a shot and jumps up and hits a frankensteiner, sending Datura into a prep table. Wolfe gets up and staggers back and turns around and starts to head to the door, only for the door to slam into her face. Bree then throws Wright into the kitchen. Wright falls over as Bree then looks down at Wolfe and goes for the pin.

Bree rolls off. She then turns and goes after Wright. Wright backs up, holds his hand up. Bree walks over to him and Wright nails her in the ribs. Wright smiles as he looks up to the ceiling and steps up before Datura steps up and nails him in the back of the head with a ladle. Wright stumbles forward as Bree hits a superkick. Wright falls back. Bree goes for the pin.

She rolls off.

Sharper: “Blythe getting the win. You see the double picture here-“

Knots: “No! Luz!”

Sharper: “Sorry, La Luz Pequena. A lot to keep track of. That’s her third fall, right?”

Knots: “And it’s got her ahead of Blythe right now, while Bree is cleaning up.”

Sharper: “Quickly you can see how everything changes! And we’ve got more to report. Something happened moments ago!”

MOMENTS AGO:

The Breakdown logo comes up as we cut to another part of the building where we see Glory Braddock getting pounced on by Aisling and Polly Playtime. Jamison Logan and Crystal Zdunich are down as we see Aisling and Polly Playtime hammering away on Glory. Glory tries to fight off Aisling and Polly both they just overwhelm her. Glory drops down to the floor. Polly motions to Aisling. Aisling heads off camera as Polly Playtime stomps away on Glory before then kneeling on her neck, choking her.

Sharper: “Playtime and Aisling are trying to take out Glory!”

Knots: “They’re not going for the pin.”

Sharper: “They’ve got a box? What the hell are they doing?”

Glory struggles for a bit before Aisling rolls in a Playtime’s stylized storage crate. She opens it as Aisling comes around. Polly and Aisling then pulls Glory up and get another shot in before shoving Glory into the crate. Glory fights a bit before they shove her in and then slam the crate closed over her. Polly quickly moves to Aisling. Aisling hands her a padlock and Polly takes it and padlocks the crate. Polly then slaps on the top.

Polly: “No one undeserved accolades!”

Polly laughs as her and Aisling head off.

Sharper: “Glory Braddock needs help.”

Knots: “Can she breathe?!”

Sharper: “And we go live now. Kimberly Williams and Syren trading blows.”

The Breakdown logo comes up again as we cut to another part in the backstage area, live, where we see Syren fighting with Kimberly Williams backstage. We notice Kim is down another staple gun, only having the two strapped to her. Syren and Kim trade blows as we see Alexis Quinne watching from the back in her street clothes. She just looks on, watching. We then cut back to catering and the camera moves outside of the room as we see Hudson and The One fighting. Hudson sends The One into the wall. Hudson turns as Ace nails him from behind. Hudson staggers forward as Selena and Deanna follow. Hudson staggers forward and Ace grabs him and turns and throws him into a door. Hudson staggers back before Deanna and Selena run over and both nail Ace with shots. Ace staggers back.

Sharper: “Just chaos backstage!”

The One staggers forward and grabs at Deanna. Deanna turns and nails her with a shot and then another as The One fires back. Hudson then turns as Selena sends Ace down. Hudson grabs Selena and turns and drives her hard into a door. The door opens and Selena falls over. Hudson looks in as we see The Dancing Bear handcuffed to a table and with a card in front of him. Bear turns and looks at them.

Bear: “Help me! Dear God help me! I’m being forced to make a card for that idiot fake child!”

Selena looks up and glares at him. Hudson just scoffs as Ace then heads over and nails Hudson from behind and then again. Hudson falls over.

Bear: “Ace! ACE! Lexy found you! Oh God! Help me man!”

Sharper: “What in the world? Is this Pro’s doing?”

Ace just looks at him. Ace shrugs.

Ace: “You first.”

Ace then runs over and pushes him over. The table falls over as Ace then covers him. Bear just struggles.

Ace then rolls off and then looks at him.

Ace: “Thanks Bear!”

Bear: “Oh yeah. Thanks. Just please! Get me away! Do you know how hard it is to write sorry without thumbs?!”

Ace: “Oh yeah. Hard. I’ll be back. Ace then steps forward and then The One nails him with a shot. The One looks in and then looks around. The One frantically turns and grabs Selena and pushes her out of the room before grabbing Hudson and dragging him out.

Bear: “No! Noooo! DON’T-“

Sharper: “The One kicking everyone out! This has to be Pro’s doing! And he’s forcing Bear to apologize to Ducky?!”

The One slams the door shut. She then turns and Deanna runs over and tackles her down, hard, with a running spear. The scene fades to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

“The Old Me” plays as the Breakdown logo appears on the screen. We then cut to see a shot of Simon Lyman and Amy Chastaine at Retribution. The crowd cheers seeing this.

Sharper: “Well while tonight is chaos, next week, we’ll hear from Simon Lyman and more importantly, Amy Chastaine. Chastaine helping Lyman, hitting the Blackout on Kandis to save him as Kandis went to attack him after the match.”

Knots: “So is she back? Or was it just altruistic?”

Sharper: “We’ll find out next week. Kandis, I’m sure, will be watching closely.”

Knots: “While maybe holding the World Title!”

The Breakdown logo comes up again. We see the leaderboard.

Kandis – 6 falls

Josh Hudson – 4 falls

Owen Cruze – 4 falls

Bree Lancaster – 4 falls

Syren – 3 falls

Deanna Frost – 3 falls

Luz – 3 falls

Ace Marshall – 3 falls

The One – 3 falls

Glory Braddock – 2 falls

Cassie Wolfe – 1 fall

Ravyn Taylor – 1 fall

Amelia Blythe – 1 fall

Chance Owens – 1 fall

Religious Wright – 1 fall

YUYO – 1 fall

Sharper: “And there you see the leaderboard as of before the commercial break. That said, we can say we need to make an update. Adam Allocco is now on the board.”

DURING THE COMMERCIAL BREAK:

We cut backstage to see Adam Allocco leading his group of people, and poor Jennifer Cassidy, to one room and he then steps over and looks at the room.

Allocco: “This was the room?”

One of the men responds.

Man: “Yeah.”

Allocco: “Let’s go boys…and Jennifer.”

Allocco opens the door.

Bear: “Oh Thank-“

We see Bear struggling to get up as Allocco holds the door open as the six men Allocco has hired run in and then quickly start to attack Bear. Bear yelps and falls to the mat. The men keep stomping away as Allocco jerks Jennifer Cassidy into the room.

Allocco: “Okay! Okay! Back off. Perimeter!”

Allocco comes over and goes for the pin.

Allocco smiles and then looks up before then leaning back down for another pin.

Sharper: “And Allocco just racking up, stacking up pins against Bear!”

Knots: “There’s one! Here’s two!”

Sharper: “This slime!”

The crowd boos. Allocco smiles and then waits a brief moment.

Allocco laughs.

Allocco: “He’s moving.”

???: “Hey!”

One man comes over and stomps Bear. The camera turns to see Pro stepping back in.

Pro: “You son of a-“

Allocco: “She’s with Xander. Get her!”

Pro lunges for Allocco before his security force attack Pro. Pro covers up and swings violently but the men overwhelm her. Pro starts to yell and kick and falls to the mat as they keep attacking over and over and over again. Allocco then moves in and dives on her, jerking Jennifer Cassidy to the ground.

Allocco gets up.

Allocco: “Out! Out! Before she gets up.”

One of the men responds.

Man: “But there’s six of us-“

Allocco: “And Xander’s coming. Let’s go.”

Allocco gets up and runs out of the room. The six men follow as Pro turns, gritting her teeth in pain and rolls over. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

Sharper: “Unbelievable…four pins. Attacking Bear. Attacking Kinneck.”

Knots: “And this is the issue. If you’re here, you’re also a target. Even if you’re not in it, people are going to assume it, even the officials with it being open invitational.”

Sharper: “And this is all continuing. And I hear Adam Allocco has found more victims!”

The scene opens up to see Allocco getting knocked back by Syren as we see the security squad Allocco has paid, running to Syren. One grabs Syren as the group starts to attack her. The crowd boos loudly as Syren tries to fight off, but the six men are too much, all overwhelming Syren.

Sharper: “They’ve got Syren! Damn it!”

Knots: “Just a mugging!”

Allocco smirks as he does and Syren falls to the ground, covering up as best as she can.

Allocco: “Get her up! Hold her up!”

Sharper: “Now barking orders.”

Allocco walks over as two of the men hold up Syren by the arms. Syren looks up, half out of it. Allocco smiles as he rears back and nails her with a hard right. He rears back again and nails her again. She falls to a knee and is held back up. We then see Kimberly Williams step over to Allocco and wrap her arm around him. Allocco stops.

Kim: “Watcha doin’?”

Allocco: “Kicking her ass. Want a crack?”

Kim: “Well I know what I want….”

Kim unstraps a staple gun and holds it up. Allocco smiles.

Allocco: “Turn her around boys!”

The two men holding up Syren, spin her around. She fights a bit and Allocco steps up and clubs her in the back. Kim smiles as she then steps up and instead of going for Syren, she staples Adam Allocco in the ass. The crowd erupts. Allocco yells out in pain and falls to a knee. He turns, holding his ass. Kim jumps up and down. Jennifer Cassidy, handcuffed to Allocco still, notes the fall.

Kim: “YESSSSSS!”

Kim smiles.

Kim: “Always wanted to do that!”

Allocco: “What the hell?!”

Kim: “NEW UNDERGROUND CHAMPION! KIMMMMMMMMM!”

Kim throws her arms up.

Sharper: “Kim stapled Allocco! Allocco right in the ass!”

Knots: “And you know what that means – she’s Underground Champion again!”

Kim starts to dance.

Kim: “Ice Ice Kimmy…the greatest Underground Champion-“

Allocco: “My ass!”

Allocco gets up and just then, Xander runs into the scene and boots Kim for good measure. The crowd ohs. Adam’s security let go of Syren as Xander then nails one with a hard right before kneeing another. Allocco gets up and scampers away, holding his right buttock, dragging Jennifer Cassidy off, still handcuffed to him, by the other arm.

Sharper: “And Xander Valentine found Allocco!”

Knots: “Or more his security!”

Sharper: “And he’s fighting them off! Allocco running for his life!”

Knots: “And poor Jennifer Cassidy still stuck to him!”

Xander nails another guard before Syren turns and kicks one and throws them into the wall. She nails another with a forearm shot. Xander knocks down another before Syren steps up to Xander only for Xander to nail her with a haymaker and glare at her. Xander then turns and heads off as Syren stirs. Kim starts to stir too, holding her jaw, smirking though.

Sharper: “And a sucker punch to Syren! Xander again, just disrespecting Syren!”

Knots: “Syren looked like she was going to say something to him, but with no desire whatsoever to deal with her.”

Sharper: “And now back to ringside here. The ringside area filling up again!”

Back in the ring, we see Blythe grabbing Owens with a crossface chickenwing attempt, only for Owens to fight out of it with a series of elbows. He then turns and runs into the ropes, only for Hudson to pull him down out of the ring and he lands hard on the floor. Hudson lunges to him, hammering away at him with repeated shots. Blythe falls to a knee as we see Owen heading to the ring. A few strides behind him is Ace Marshall. Colleen runs up and nails him from behind. Ace turns and knees her in the ribs and then scoop slams her on the stage. Ace turns as Owen runs over and nails Hudson from behind. Hudson turns and smirks seeing Owen. Owen just shrugs and Hudson steps up and nails him with a hard right. Owen nails him with one.

Sharper: “Hudson and Cruze! Trading blows. Hudson wants another crack at Owen. He’s getting it tonight!”

Knots: “He’ll take what he can get and Owen Cruze fighting right back!”

They trade blows as the crowd cheers at ringside. Ace then runs over and runs at them and grabs both before running forward and driving both face first into the apron. Hudson and Owen stagger back as Luz and Kelsai run across the ring. Luz hits a corkscrew flip dive onto Hudson while Kelsai dives through the ropes and takes Owen down.

Sharper: “Kelsai Adamson and La Pequena Luz with dueling dives onto Hudson and Cruze! Ace dodging!”

Ace just smiles as he rolls into the ring. He gets up as Blythe steps up and goes to spin around him. Ace grabs her hands though and prevents them from getting clasp before then grabbing her arm and wrenching it. Blythe flips forward. Ace goes to grab her. Blythe pushes him off with her feet. Ace falls back. Blythe gets up and turns as she runs at Ace and jumps up and goes for a rolling armbar, but Ace drops down and folds her up.

The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Ace stacking up Blythe! Just not panicking as Blythe hoped to sneak in an armbar.”

Knots: “Too similar to Selena. Ace and Selena have a long history!”

Ace rolls away and pulls his arm free. We then see YUYO and Wolfe running out from the back. YUYO and Wolfe nail Colleen with a double clothesline as she gets up, falling to the stage. They then run past, YUYO taunting her. They head over to the ring and Luz grabs Hudson as Kelsai grabs Owen. YUYO and Wolfe then run to the ring, jumping up to the apron. Wolfe jumps to the middle rope and hits an asai moonsault onto Hudson and Luz while YUYO hits a diving hip attack on Owen and Kelsai, while yelling out “JUSTICE!” They roll back. Ace turns Blythe tries to go after him. Ace blocks as best as he can, before we see Penguin running through the crowd. He climbs the apron and rolls into the ring. Penguin slides and Ace shoves Blythe back only for Penguin to catch her and hit a huge high angle back suplex. Blythe rolls over. Penguin turns as Ace then runs out and drills him before he can even react with the One Eyed Royal. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Oh! One Eyed Royal! Penguin just turned inside out!”

Knots: “The poor guy! He’s just trying to stand out and always at the wrong place!”

Sharper: “There’s no real wrong time. You just have to always be watching and Penguin just not used to being out there alone. And hell, he got hit by his own LexyCorp ally!”

Ace goes for the pin.

YUYO and Wolfe break it up. They roll over as Ace looks up and turns as Wolfe and YUYO then go after him, hammering away on him. Luz and Kelsai roll in slowly. They start to get up as Kelsai dives onto Penguin.

YUYO breaks it up. She rolls through and gets up. Kelsai turns and YUYO hits a straight kick, knocking her back. Luz then rolls up Wolfe.

Sharper: “YUYO with another break up!

YUYO breaks that up. She exclaims “YUYO!” before turning as YUYO clubs Luz in the back once and then again before Blythe runs over and grabs YUYO from behind. Luz runs into the ropes, bouncing off and they hit a spinning heel kick/German suplex combo into a bridge.

YUYO rolls over in pain as Wolfe fights up and nails Blythe with a shot.

Knots: “That’s one way to stop YUYO breaking everything up!”

Sharper: “Yeah, hit a move and the double-team. Blythe getting credit for the pin.”

Luz gets up and Wolfe nails her with a shot. She then runs into the ropes and dives off and goes for a springboard moonsault, but Wolfe and Blythe catch her. The crowd roars. They turn as Owen and Hudson enter the ring and Hudson hits a spear, while Owen does the same. Wolfe is driven into the mat chest first as Light in the Darkness are sent down. Owen and Hudson then go for pins and both look at one another.

1! 1!

2! 2!

3! 3!

Hudson and Owen slowly get up as Luz and Blythe stir.

Sharper: “Double pin and Owen and Hudson looking right at one another. Two of the current favourites near the top of the leaderboard.”

Knots: “Still all Kandis though at the top!”

Hudson and Owen look at each other before Owen throws the first shot. Hudson fires back. They trade blows again, stepping over Light in the Darkness to get closer. They continue to trade blows before as Ace Marshall looks on. Penguin stirs too. Colleen makes it to the ring. Ace Marshall then runs at both Owen and Hudson and clotheslines them down. He turns around as Colleen slides into the ring and runs at him and nails him with a high impact crossbody. The crowd ohs as Colleen rolls through when suddenly, Penguin, coming from the outside, hits the Cold Shoulder. Penguin starts to get up and looks around before seeing Ace Marshall there and holding his jaw. He then turns and grabs him, but just then, YUYO nails him with the Magical Knee. The crowd ohs. YUYO falls on top of him.

YUYO rolls off as everyone is down in the ring. We go to a wide shot as the crowd cheers a bit.

Sharper: “And YUYO! Magical Knee! Penguin again the target!”

Knots: “Maybe he should be a lump on the ground bird. Just get in the fetal position and stay there!”

Sharper: “Penguin hoping to get a fall there. Instead, YUYO gets it. And everyone in the ring down. The crowd appreciating the effort here and now let’s go backstage!”

We cut backstage where see Selena Frost and Deanna Frost at the sight of the Playtime foot locker.

Selena: “Did you get it?”

We hear a muffled sound from it as Selena looks around and we see a crew member heading over with a pair of bolt cutters.

Playtime: “Whoa! Whoa! Just leave her in there.”

Selena turns as Playtime and Aisling come by.

Playtime: “She doesn’t need to come out. She’s just collecting belts. Not much integrity-“

Selena: “So you lock her in a storage crate?!”

Playtime shrugs.

Aisling: “Seemed like it’s working.”

Deanna: “What if she can’t breathe?!”

Selena turns to the crew member.

Selena: “Get her out!”

Aisling: “We’re trying to help you. We’re on your side-“

Selena: “Not with crap like this.”

Selena moves forward and Playtime stops her.

Playtime: “Then I guess you just are full of it too.”

Deanna then steps up and grabs Playtime. Playtime nails Deanna as Aisling goes to stop the crew member, but Selena grabs her and throws her away.

Sharper: “And the Playgirls had a plan. Helping Selena and Deanna?”

Knots: “Or taking out Glory? Either way. That helps make some sense. And Selena and Deanna too proud to get the help-“

Sharper: “Too proud?! How about they don’t want to see someone, even someone they’ve had issues with locked in a trunk!”

Knots: “Well it is hideous…the trunk that is. Look at the paint colours!”

Playtime fires back on Deanna as Deanna grabs her and they fight off down one of the hallways. Selena waits as the crew member breaks the lock. Selena runs over and unflips it and then lifts the top. Glory starts to breathe heavily, sitting up a bit. Selena turns and helps her up.

Selena: “Glory! You okay…”

Glory keeps breathe. Aisling then runs forward and tackles Selena down. Aisling rolls through and sighs. She pouts as she then stomps Selena a couple of times. Glory tries to get up and Aisling runs over and knocks her down. Glory falls over, still recovering from her entombment. Aisling turns around and walks right into Selena who hits the Glass Shard out of instinct.

Sharper: “Playtime and Deanna…Selena and Aisling. And Aisling got the Glass Shard!”

Knots: “She clocked her!”

Aisling falls back. Selena rolls through for the pin.

Selena turns and holds her jaw. She starts to get up as Glory staggers up.

Glory: “Where is Polly?”

Selena looks around.

Selena: “I don’t know…Damn it.”

Glory: “You go, I have something I want to do first.”

Selena heads off into a different direction than Deanna as we see Glory grabbing Aisling and lifting her up and throwing her into the Playtime crate. She then looks at her.

Glory: “Time for me to play a game!”

Glory slams the crate time down onto Aisling, as Aisling isn’t fully in. She yelps in pain and then Glory grabs the crate and rams it into a wall. She staggers back. She turns around and looks around before we cut to another part of the building where we see Adam Allocco running through the backstage area, Cassidy getting jerked around after him. He spins around and look around before suddenly running into Kandis. Kandis smiles and cracks him in the jaw. She nails him again and again. Adam stumbles back and turns as we see Bree and Datura coming into the area. Adam turns again and Kandis hits a straight kick to the stomach. Allocco falls back.

Sharper: “And we’re now somewhere else. Allocco and Kandis going at it. Bree and Datura.”

Knots: “You can see people are looking for other people. Congregating. You can’t get falls if you’re not around people.”

Sharper: “And while Kandis is in the lead, clearly she wants to add to it! She’s on a mission!”

Kandis turns as Datura runs up and nails her with a blistering right hand. Kandis staggers back and Datura spins around her and into a school boy, only for Bree to step up and hit the BOGO, knocking Kandis back. Another official, Dean Black, comes into the scene. Datura lets go of the school boy, rolling out only for Bree to go for the pin.

Religious Wright breaks it up.

Wright: “Not under the eyes of the LAWD!”

Sharper: “And Religious Wright from nowhere!”

Knots: “They’re everywhere!”

Wright staggers forward and turns as Datura grabs him and hoists him up and hits a release northern lights suplex. Wright rolls over. Datura turns as we see The One running over and knocking Datura down with a running knee. Datura falls back. The One turns as Bree gets up and Bree nails her with a hard right. The One fights back. Adam then gets up as Kandis stirs as Allocco hooks her up and turns and hits an exploder suplex on the concrete.

Sharper: “Good God! An exploder suplex onto Kandis on the concrete.”

Knots: “While connected to an official!”

The crowd ohs. Allocco turns and goes for the pin, Cassidy counting.

Jamison Logan breaks it up. He rolls through as we see Willow Aspen coming into the scene. Logan turns as Aspen nails him with a hard right and then another before hitting a spinning sweep, knocking Logan down. Aspen turns as Allocco hits a European uppercut and she stumbles back. Allocco turns and grabs Kandis.

Allocco: “We’ll need some privacy!”

Allocco drags her, and SCW official Jennifer Cassidy, over to a nearby men’s room, forcing the door open. He looks around and then throws into the handicap stall.

Sharper: “Oh God! In the men’s room!”

Knots: “I didn’t realize that Allocco and Kandis felt this way about one another!”

Sharper: “Well outside of maybe hatred and a desire to eliminate competition!”

The camera follows as Allocco steps in and grabs her and goes to place her head into the toilet. Kandis however blocks it and elbows him in the ribs once. Allocco tries to force her down again. Kandis blocks it before elbowing him again and again before placing Allocco’s head in the toilet. He flails as Kandis then flushes the toilet for good measure.

Sharper: “Oh God! A swirlie! Adam Allocco! From World Champion to swirlie victim!”

Cassidy tries to pull away, avoiding getting toilet water on her. Allocco pops up and staggers back, his hair drenched. He then staggers forward and out of the bathroom, Cassidy walking with him. The camera pans out with him and just then, he’s caught by a boot from Xander Valentine. Valentine then grabs him as the crowd roars. Cassidy is dragged along. Xander runs him forward and throws him into the wall. Allocco rolls off, a splat of water against the wall. Allocco staggers forward and Xander then grabs him by the throat. He then hoists him up and hits a double chokeslam to a storage crate, forcing the air out of Allocco. Cassidy looks on.

Sharper: “Oh my God! A vicious chokeslam. Allocco lands hard.”

Knots: “He’s struggling to breathe!”

Sharper: “Maybe the hope. Xander Valentine didn’t hold up at all and he hates Allocco. All thanks to what he knows Allocco did to his son!”

Xander walks over to him and grabs him and drags him up and hoists him onto his shoulder. Xander then starts to carry him out of the building. Cassidy walks with them. The camera follows him as he walks over to one of the security checkpoints. Allocco is half out of it and looks around. His eyes widen as he sees the door. Xander motions for them to open the metal garage door. Artemis shows up at this point and steps forward, the security guards obliging at this point. The door starts to go up as Xander, as Allocco struggles, then runs forward and lawndarts Allocco into the door. Cassidy is jerked over too, wincing in pain. Allocco hits the floor. Allocco rolls over and Xander then grabs him, dragging him through the door and out. Jennifer Cassidy, attached to Adam, in fact, notes Adam has “left” the building, voiding his score.

Sharper: “And Cassidy! Attached to Adam! Counting this as Adam leaving the building! Allocco’s falls are all reset! He’s down to zero!”

Knots: “Oh Adam!”

Allocco rolls over and looks up and down, defeated as Xander then steps back into the building.

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. There you see the leaderboard as we are in the final stretch.”

Knots: “Yeah, better work fast. We’re coming close to the top of the hour and the end of the show!”

Sharper: “And when the show ends, we’ll ring the bell, reveal the winner; the champions will all be handed their titles next week to start Breakdown. And right now, it looks like Kandis is going to win!”

Knots: “We’ll never hear the end of it. Just like we’ll never hear the end of Adam Allocco! He was tossed out of the building by Xander Valentine!”

Sharper: “That was moments ago. And meanwhile, the action has continued. Let’s show you some of what happened during the break.”

DURING THE BREAK:

We see Polly Playtime thrown into a wall by Deanna Frost. Frost nails her with a hard right and then a left, both to the ribs, before kneeing her in the ribs and then grabbing her and pulling her forward and rolling through, going for a guillotine, but Polly slides out and nails her with a couple of hard forearm shots to the jaw. Polly then gets up and grabs Deanna and drags her up, kneeing her in the face. She then turns and throws her into a door. The door flies open, but Deanna holds onto the frame from instinct. She pulls herself up.

Polly: “We wanted to help! But no…have to do it your way. Just like Selena! Stubborn and dumb.”

Polly then lunges and goes for a shot, but Deanna catches her and then throws her overhead, through the door frame and to the floor.

Sharper: “And this is where habits are so hard to break. Deanna Frost nearly thrown out of the building. But then look-“

Knots: “Polly ran at her. Deanna took her over and the momentum took her out of the building.”

Sharper: “And Deanna losing her falls. Getting focused on Polly.”

Knots: “They tried to help and now, Deanna, she needs to come back hard if she wants to have any chance at still holding the tag titles with Selena.”

Deanna instinctively turns to grab her and pulls her up, but we then see Beard, in a referee’s shirt, running over and waving off Deanna’s falls. Deanna then looks around and falls to a knee. Deann then leans forward, placing her head in her hands and slowly getting up.

Sharper: “Meanwhile, we also saw this on our monitors. Selena Frost arriving at the scene where Allocco and Kandis, Bree and Datura, they were earlier.”

Knots: “Clearly not found Deanna, but now back in the fight.”

The Breakdown logo comes up as we cut another part of the building where we see Kandis fighting Bree Lancaster as Datura and Aspen trade blows. Wright and Logan are also fighting as we see Selena Frost running into the scene, looking for Deanna. She then turns as we see Xander Valentine and Artemis walking off. Selena turns to them before we see Adam Allocco crawling in at the back, Cassidy still with him. The Breakdown logo comes up as we cut to the ring.

Back in the ring, we see Syren is now at ringside, joining the fray and we also see Ravyn Taylor has come to the fray too. She runs over and grabs Luz, driving her into the announce table. Blythe is fighting with Owen as Hudson now is trying to stretch Ace Marshall.

Sharper: “Back in the ring, you can see it’s filled up. Everyone looking to gain falls.”

Knots: “And in chaos comes opportunity!”

Sharper: “Syren and Kelsai going at it. Hudson and Ace; Owen and Blythe. Ravyn Taylor out here joining Chance Owens, Light in the Darkness.”

Syren grabs Kelsai and runs her into the barricade. Syren steps over and chops her. Kelsai falls to the floor. Penguin then grabs Owen and snapmares him over. He rolls over as Penguin runs into the ropes, bouncing off and hitting a running senton splash. He reaches back for the pin.

YUYO breaks it up. She then turns and gets up and Blythe steps in and grabs her and hooks her up for a German suplex. She connects and bridges up.

Wolfe hits a jumping double stomp to Blythe. Blythe rolls over in pain.

Sharper: “Wolfe and YUYO continuing to be like gnats, always there and breaking it up.”

Knots: “Someone has to. You don’t want people just getting falls. But I want them to take a sacrifice ass stapling!”

Sharper: “But you notice how everyone is fatigued. Everything taking a lot more out of everyone.”

Wolfe then turns around and runs at Hudson and Hudson lifts her up and hits a back drop, sending her to the floor. Syren rolls into the ring and looks around before running over to Penguin and taking him down by the legs and locking in a sharpshooter! She rears back as the crowd roars. Ravyn sees this and rolls into the ring, just as Penguin lightly taps.

Sharper: “Sharpshooter! Penguin in trouble!”

Knots: “Syren on a mission!”

Syren looks back as Demitra affirms it and Syren lets go and turns as Ravyn looks at her. Syren turns away and goes over to Owen and grabs him, but as she does, Ravyn rakes his eyes. Lexy appears at ringside, having run down and looks around before we see Konrad Raab storming to the ring, holding his mace. Just then, we see Kimberly Williams running down from the back with a shopping cart full of staple guns.

Sharper: “Oh my God! Kimberly Williams now in, the new Underground Champion, officially, and she’s got staple guns for everywhere!”

Knots: “Okay! Don’t go to Home Depot or Canadian Tire. Going to have to go Rona and Lowes!”

Sharper: “And Konrad Raab with that damn mace. Things getting even more chaotic!”

Ace looks up at Raab as the crowd roars. Colleen runs over to Kelsai and scoops her up and powerslams her down. She then looks over and grabs Hudson and pulls him to the floor. Hudson rolls over. She then points to Kelsai. Hudson crawls over and hooks the leg.

Hudson rolls off as Kim starts to throw staple guns into the ring.

Sharper: “Hudson gains a fall! And he’s greeted to staple guns!”

Knots: “She’s just lobbing them into the ring. Kim ran down with glee. Konrad with anger. And those guns, they’re going off. Staples! Staple guns!”

Sharper: “Just get down!”

Some land on their handles, causing staples to pop off as everyone stops their offense more to guard themselves from the onslaught. In the process, Konrad swings and nearly takes Chance Owens’s head off. He ducks just in time. Owens backs off as Raab hits the ringpost and then spins through and goes after Luz as she gets up. She drops down and rolls under the ring. Raab continues to circle the ring and nearly attacks Wolfe. Wolfe moves as Raab takes down the barricade, knocking it into a walkway in the crowd. Raab then turns as he sees Ace and Ace turns and grabs Owen Cruze and throws him through the ropes and right onto Raab. The crowd ohs. Kim looks on, disappointed no one is using her staple guns.

Sharper: “Konrad after trying to take everyone’s damn head off, Ace using the SCW World Champion, at least for now, as a deterrent and to stop Raab’s craze.”

Knots: “Look at Kim though.”

Sharper: “Everyone focusing on competing. Kim noticing no one is using her staple guns.”

Knots: “You don’t turn down a gift from a madwoman!”

Ace turns around as Lexy starts to jump up and down. Ace ignores her as Syren turns and goes after Blythe. Blythe nails her in the ribs as Ravyn then clubs Blythe from behind. Luz rolls into the ring and joins Blythe. They both attack Ravyn as Ravyn reaches up and manages to undo the ties on the back of Luz’s mask. She backs up and Ravyn rakes Blythe’s eyes. Lexy then slides into the ring seeing this. Syren winces as Ravyn runs across the ring, ignoring Syren and Lexy. Lexy then quickly shoves Blythe into Luz. They go down as Ravyn bounces off and turns into Syren who twists back, grabbing her head and driving her into the mat with a springboard Total Makeover. Syren instinctively goes for the cover. Kim meanwhile starts to hand people who are downed staple guns.

Sharper: “Syren just dropped Ravyn!”

Knots: “Was it intentional?!”

Sharper: “I don’t know, but Lexy Chapel with the assist!”

Knots: “And Kim is helping too. You’re down on the ground? You get a staple gun!”

Lexy jumps up and down as Syren turns and looks down and then to Lexy. Lexy smiles as Syren then snaps out of it as Blythe runs at Syren and Syren suddenly reaches up and rolls her up into an inside cradle.

Sharper: “Inside cradle! Three count!”

Knots: “Two quick falls for Syren!”

Blythe gets out. Syren gets up and goes to repeat on Luz, but Luz rolls through.

YUYO breaks it up. Syren rolls over as Owen kicks at Konrad on the floor. Hudson on the floor rolls into the ring as Syren and Blythe stir. YUYO nails both with shots before Hudson then scoops her up and hits the Big Fat Kill. He goes for the pin, but Ace shoves him off and goes for the pin himself. Hudson falls on the floor.

Sharper: “Big Fat Kill! Hudson looking to add to his tally-“

Knots: “Ace!”

Ace rolls off and Owen then springboards into the ring and hits a huge top rope Redemption, driving Ace into the mat. Owen goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Owen! Off the top rope! My God! A vicious Redemption! Ace Marshall has to be out!”

Knots: “World Champ not going down without a fight!”

He rolls off.

We cut backstage to see Kandis holding onto the side of the garage door, refusing to be sent through. Selena, Bree and Datura all are trying to get her out before Logan attacks Selena, Aspen attacks Bree and Wright attacks Datura. Wright then shoves Datura out of the building for good measure. We see The One down in the background. Kandis then steps forward and superkicks Wright for good measure. Kandis then drops down for the pin.

Bree and Aspen both turn and break it up. Kandis rolls off. Aspen then nails Bree with a hard right while Bree fires back, both on their knees. Kandis gets up as she then turns and Selena suddenly spins Logan around and sends him into Kandis. Kandis jumps up, but Logan instead spears her, tackling her back and through the open garage. Selena falls to a knee as Logan rolls through and Kandis rolls over in pain. Selena smirks.

Kim throws her arms up as she then grabs a staple gun and rolls into the ring. She steps up and quickly catches Owens with a staple gun shot to the forehead. She turns and catches Ace with one as he gets up. She turns to Lexy and Syren shoves her out of the way and looks at Kim. Kim smiles as she then steps up and goes to staple Syren. Syren blocks it as Lexy looks around. She then turns and sees Ravyn. Lexy grabs Ravyn and tries to lift her up. Penguin stirs as Lexy motions to him. Penguin crawls over as Kim and Syren continue to have their test of strength over the staple gun. Lexy and Penguin then lift Ravyn up and Syren turns Kim’s staple gun over, right to staple Ravyn Taylor in the ass. She grimaces and rolls over, holding her bum in pain. Syren then knees Kim in the ribs before Penguin frantically pushes Ravyn out of the ring.

Sharper: “My God! Kandis! Kandis! She’s been driven out of the building!”

Knots: “And by Amy Chastaine’s student! Jamison Logan!”

Sharper: “Oh my God! Selena loving it too. And in the ring, Syren!”

Knots: “She just stapled Ravyn’s ass with Kim’s assist!”

Just then, Allocco runs up behind Selena. Cassidy is caught in the middle. Kandis looks on crushed as Beard waives off her falls. Selena is about to be sent out, but Braddock runs over and catches Allocco with a running dropkick. Braddock winces upon impact as Selena stops at the door. She quickly moves herself more safely inside as Braddock looks at Selena before turning back and nailing Adam with a shot. Selena then turns as Aspen and Bree continue to attack one another. Datura then steps into the building again only for Selena to suddenly grab her and roll her up with a small package.

Datura rolls over and looks around stunned. Bree glances back, leading Aspen to clock her good and get free. Aspen then runs over to Selena. Wright stirs. The One recovers, going after Selena. Kandis then runs over and grabs Bree, forcing her down for a pin.

Bree kicks out. She then frantically tries again.

Bree kicks out again. Kandis then moves to Wright.

He kicks out. Kandis’s panic is palpable as she keeps looking around.

Kim turns and then staples Kelsai in the arm before Konrad enters the ring and drills Kim with a vicious European uppercut. She goes up and over. Konrad then sees some of the staple guns in the ring. He starts to kick some into a pile. Syren however nails him with a hard right. Owen stirs as Ace struggles to the corner. Blythe and YUYO head to the ring as Hudson then slides in. He gets up as Syren nails Hudson again and then Syren knocks Konrad down. Syren turns as Hudson hoists her up and hits the Big Fat Kill. He goes for the pin.

Hudson rolls off. He gets up and Wolfe and Blythe both attack him. They nail him with repeated shots as Owen starts to get up. Lexy turns to Syren, trying to help her up briefly before turning to Ace and checking on him. Ace turns as Lexy goes back and forth. Penguin meanwhile runs over and runs to the ropes. He jumps off and hits a springboard Trust Fall, onto Blythe, Wolfe and Hudson. Penguin rolls over and turns and then goes to Owen, who suddenly rolls him up with an inside cradle.

Penguin rolls over as Owen starts to get up. Kim stirs on the floor as Raab then gets up and runs at Penguin and drills him with a European uppercut. He spins around and nails Owen with one before then seeing Ace. He throws Lexy down and grabs Ace starting to choke him against the ropes.

Sharper: “Owen and Hudson keeping pace with one another. Kandis though…”

Knots: “She’s lost it. She’s trying to pin anyone! Everyone!”

Sharper: “She’s trying to do anything to get her falls back!”

Ace leans back, nearly falling through the ropes. Ace slides through the ropes as we briefly cut backstage to see Kandis trying to take Aspen down only for Logan to nail Kandis from the side and knocking her over. The One then turns to Kandis, attacking her, rolling her over for a pin attempt.

Kandis kicks out. Back in the ring. Konrad falls out of the ring, going after Ace, continuing to choke him. Ace rolls over and gets up, followed by Konrad who starts to chase him through the crowd.

Sharper: “Ace Marshall running for his life as Konrad Raab trying to get him!”

Knots: “Going through the crowd! Keep running. Pay a fan to get in the way!”

Sharper: “Raab focusing on revenge, not falls!”

In the ring, Syren gets up in the corner as Lexy turns to her and Ravyn grabs her and starts to pull her out of the ring. Luz however runs over and grabs Ravyn and sends her into the steel steps. Ravyn rolls over. Luz then turns and grabs Syren as she instinctively moves into an inside cradle on the mats.

Luz kicks out as Syren rolls off as Lexy jumps up, thinking at first it was three, before then showing some disappointment, and then turns only for Penguin to stagger up.

Sharper: “Another cradle! And you can see. More and more attempts at cradles.”

Knots: “Low energy for the initiator, but hoping to take advantage of the tiredness of others.”

Sharper: “Increasingly effective at this late stage! Although Luz just kicking out in time.”

YUYO grabs him and kicks him in the ribs before Wolfe kicks him too. Blythe comes over and grabs YUYO, this gets Wolfe’s attention and just then Penguin jumps up and hits a dropkick, splitting his legs, knocking both down. Penguin then turns as Hudson catches his leg and then hoists him up with the Hudson Stretch. Penguin yells in pain as Syren turns and enters the ring as Owen starts to recover, as Kim turns and starts to throw chairs into the ring from under the ring for good measure. Penguin is caught by one as is Hudson, but Hudson keeps the hold on as Penguin taps out.

Sharper: “Penguin tapping out to the Hudson Stretch. Hudson getting one more!”

Knots: “And Kim is losing it more! Now just tossing chairs into the ring. Hoping to force people’s hands!”

Hudson drops Penguin as Kim keeps throwing chairs, Syren and Owen swatting them away, as do Owens and Kelsai who are now in the ring. The bell then sounds as Hudson turns as Kim looks around. She then smirks as there’s a brief bit of silence as the crowd buzzes.

Sharper: “There’s the buzzer! We’re out of time!”

Knots: “Who has it? Who has it!”

The leaderboard then comes up on the big screen.

*Kimberly Williams earned one fall thus becomes Underground Champion

The crowd roars before starting to boo. “Duality” then starts to play throughout the arena. Kim then backs up, dusting her hands as she looks around.

Sharper: “Hudson! Josh Hudson is our new World Champion! Hudson has come out on top.”

Knots: “Look! Owen’s the US Champion. Hudson’s getting the match he wants.”

Sharper: “Oh my God! What a chaotic night. What a history making night. Syren is Adrenaline Champion. Tag Champions…Selena Frost and Ace Marshall!”

Knots: “And Bree swaps her Adrenaline Title for the TV Title!”

Sharper: “What’s going to happen next week?!”

Hudson remains down in the ring, surrounded by staple guns, chairs, exhausted, as is everyone else as the scene fades to black…
