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 Syren celebrating with the World Championship start before we see a shot of the Beauty Factory standing tall in the ring. Following this is Aaron Blackbourne hitting the Unchained Creativity on an opponent. Katie Steward hitting the Off with her Head on Giovanni Aries at Retribution 2018 follows.

I think I lost my memory
I can't remember carefree
And all my days turn into fight or flight

Owen Cruze hitting the Cruze Stomp on an opponent follows before we see Selena Frost hitting the Glass Shard on Bree Lancaster. Bree Lancaster hitting the Classifier on Aaron Blackbourne follows before we see Scarlet Grey walking to the ring.

I wanna get back, tell me how to get back
I wanna get back, tell me how to get back

Kennedy Street hitting Dante McCaffery with the Touch of Class follows before we see James Evans and Angelica Jones holding the SCW World Tag Team Championship. Marie Jones standing on the ropes follows before we see Kandis swiveling her hips as part of her entrance. Derek Adonis holding up a copy of the KABLAMA Sutra follows.

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?

Chris Cannon covering Kennedy Street and Owen Cruze follows before we see a shot of Cassidy Carter dancing on her way to the ring, and then a shot of Regan Street and Datura swinging chairs at one another. 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 Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, Mexico. The cameras pan across the crowd for a few moments.

Sharper: “We are south of a border as Breakdown comes to you live from Mexico City!”

We then cut to ringside to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the announce position.

Sharper: “Adam Sharper here at ringside with Jonathan Knots and we are still reeling after the wild night that was last week on Breakdown. Xander Valentine, not here tonight, but he attacked Mr. D again. And when we went off the air, Chris Cannon and Sienna Swann were embraced in a passionate kiss.”

Knots: “And you all missed me vomiting all over this desk as we watched Chris Cannon prove that he’s the greatest piece of crap in professional wrestling!”

Sharper: “Sienna Swann taking her moniker and now taking Kelcey Wallace’s wife. Just disgusting and she was claiming it was all for the people.”

Knots: “Can we talk about something else? Like how Regan Street is going to knock Giovanni Aries around and maybe give him another broken nose?”

Sharper: “That is our main event. We also will see two titles on the line tonight. US Title on the line when Alexis Quinne challenges Selena Frost. Also Brittany Lohan will compete for the final time in Mexico tonight against Andrew Raynes, taking exception to comments he made last week.”

One lone spotlight shines in entrance where smoke begins to come out and surround the stage. “Style” by Taylor Swift begins to play throughout the arena, the Tron plays the video of her various photo-shoots, training, fighting, swimsuits, lingerie and walking through nightclubs with men gawking over her in skin tight dresses. A few moments pass before we see Sienna Swann walk out from the back, holding the interim SCW World Championship over her shoulder. Chris Cannon walks out with her and the two are hand in hand as the crowd boos some more. Laura Steinbeck comes out a few steps behind them, smiling.

Knots: “Of course we’re starting with these assholes!”

Sharper: “And this crowd greeting them with a lot of negativity. The interim World Champion, Sienna Swann and Chris Cannon.”

Knots: “You know what would be for the people? If both had horrible cases of traveller’s diarrhea. Now that would be for the people! And PERFECT!”

Sienna Swann smirks as she walks hand in hand with Chris Cannon. Laura walks a few steps behind as the boos continue. They make their way to the ring. Cannon then holds Sienna’s hand, leading her up the steps. Cannon follows her and holds the ropes for Sienna. Sienna turns to him and kisses him and the crowd boos some more as Sienna steps into the ring, gazing at him. Chris follows as Laura walks up the steps and Chris holds the ropes open for her. She enters. Sienna smiles as she walks over and asks for a microphone. Jason Phillips hands her one and Sienna takes it and walks back to the middle of the ring. She straightens her title out as the crowd boos and the music fades out.

Sienna: “Thank you for the warm reception. Unlike last week where you had to wait, we wanted to ensure that all of you here in Mexico had something for each and every one of you to start. That’s right, you get your World Champion and her Superman to start Breakdown…for the people.”

The crowd boos as Sienna smirks. Chris looks around, smiling a bit too. Laura just applauds.

Sharper: “Good lord.”

Sienna looks around.

Sienna: “And tonight will be a great night because tonight, we find out whether the fraud that is Syren can finally be put to rest as having any legitimate claim to my World Championship. We all know I am the real World Champion. Don’t insult me with the interim tag. But more importantly, I now have all of the support I need.”

Sienna looks at Chris Cannon lovingly. Chris turns to her.

Sienna: “Everyone thought I was searching for something that wasn’t there, but we all knew that Superman had his heart as property of mine. He just needed to quit lying to himself and this…this is perfect.”

The crowd boos as Sienna extends the microphone to Chris Cannon. The crowd boos some more as Chris takes it. He looks around the arena, extending his arm, and soaking in the negative reaction. He just scoffs.

Chris: “Why are you booing me?”

The crowd boos some more.

Chris: “I mean I am just being what all of you said I was. That I had handed Sienna Swann, the Iron Angel, the real Perfect Ten, the interim World Championship. That I was in her pocket.”

The crowd boos some more.

Knots: “Damn right!”

Chris: “You all could not have been any more wrong, but since we’re out here in the spirit of each and every one of you, I will share you with some wisdom. Sienna Swann does not need me to help her win anything. She is the rightful World Champion because she is just that damn good. And Kennedy can make every excuse she wants, but when she’s already the least successful of the entire Street family, you need a crutch to stand on!”

The crowd boos.

Knots: “You son of a bitch.”

Chris: “But that’s fine. See, I was not in her pocket. It was a genuine mistake, but after everything I’ve been through, it all made me realize that paradise is right here next to me and it’s what I deserved more than anything. Just as you deserved this all, for the people. But you all see as some sort of villain.”

Chris scoffs and looks around.

Chris: “Superman’s dead and all that. No. that’s just some of the Avengers. And you want me to be a villain. You want a reason to boo. Well, how about the fact that at the end of Endgame, I’ll tell you who takes a powder. How about the fact that by the end of it all, S[bleep].”

Chris keeps talking as the bleeping just cuts out to silence as he then stops. A moment passes before we hear the crowd booing.

Knots: “Is that right? That’s a spoiler?”

Sharper: “I don’t know!”

Knots: “I hope someone bleeped that!”

Cannon smirks.

Cannon: “And Groot and Black Widow get REALLY close! Don’t worry! You now don’t need to waste your money on a crappy superhero film. You can focus on what matters…true greatness. Right here, for the people.”

Chris Cannon looks around as Sienna actually at this point, wraps her arm around his waist, remaining as close as she can to him.

Knots: “This is sickening.”

Cannon: “But someone disagrees and well…I think I should offer them a chance to say what they think to my face. So…”

Sienna steps back as Cannon turns to the ropes. He looks at Jonathan Knots.

Cannon: “Hey jackass. You have something to say to me.”

Cannon steps through the ropes and drops down to the floor.

Sharper: “Come on Chris.”

Knots: “Yeah. I think you’re a bitch!”

Cannon: “Calling me a pathetic pile of crap. Saying I was castrated. Well, Jon…you’d know as your job right now consists of kissing Kennedy’s ass and embracing mediocrity while trying to get in good with all her friends. I’ve heard what you’ve said about Sienna, about Bree, about me…and you know what…”

Knots stands up.

Knots: “What-“

Cannon smacks him. He then grabs him by the jaw and pulls him in. Knots struggles a bit.

Cannon: “Someone should teach the Silver Tongued jackass some respect. So you’re going to come with me and you’re going to show that respect!”

Sienna smiles as Cannon starts to pull him up over the table.

Sharper: “Hey! Come on! Get away from here”!

Knots tries to get free and Cannon smacks him again.

Cannon: “Or maybe I can make you eat this microphone. Don’t choke on it. You’d turn into your wife as she knows exactly what to do there!”

Knots gets up and Cannon smacks him again. Knots falls over. We then see Kennedy Street running out from the back. The crowd roars as Sienna turns. Chris just smirks as he backs up. Kennedy runs around the ring and Chris backs up as Kennedy goes over to Jonathan Knots, standing by him, protecting him.

Sharper: “Kennedy Street coming out here to defend her husband. He is not a competitor.”

Cannon just backs up.

Cannon: “Well Jon…finally you know how to speak about it. Just getting immasculated in front of the world.”

Cannon rolls back into the ring. Cannon turns to Sienna. He then smirks as they kiss again. Kennedy just turns away from them and checks on Jonathan Knots, who holds his lip, looking up at the ring.

Kennedy: “Ignore them. Focus on me. Ignore them.”

Knots just keeps looking up at them as Chris and Sienna then start to pose in the ring and “Style” starts to play. The crowd boos. Kennedy keeps check on Knots as Chris and Sienna make their exit as the scene starts to fade out.

COMMERCIALS

DURING THE COMMERCIAL BREAK:

We cut to the outside of the tunnel to see Sienna Swann, Chris Cannon and Laura Steinbeck walking through.

Sharper: “Folks, during the commercial break, another person confronted SCW newest power couple.”

They step through and Chris looks down briefly as we see Trinity Street standing a few feet away.

Trinity: “So this is what you’re doing? Not just a moment of temporary insanity love.”

Chris: “Only insanity is thinking there was a real future elsewhere.”

Trinity: “You better watch your tongue.”

Sienna steps forward.

Sienna: “And you should watch yours. He’s made a choice. You should respect it.”

Trinity: “You haven’t even earned the right to speak to me.”

Sienna: “I don’t see the World Title around your waist. Then again, I didn’t need handouts to even be allowed back here.”

Laura: “Let’s go.”

Trinity: “This is going to be the greatest mistake of your life, Chris.”

Chris: “Already apparently made it. Ask Kennedy.”

They head off as Trinity watches them. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

We cut to a live shot.

Sharper: “Trinity Street confronting them. Now we’re live.”

We see Kennedy Street and Trinity Street walking backstage.

Trinity: “They’ve got a pair of bloody cheeks.”

Kennedy: “Not yet. But they’ve gone past the point of no return. He can run me down. But he’s now tossed aside Kelcey and gone after Jonny. If he can ever find his spine, I’m coming for him and I still owe Sienna a touch of class.”

Trinity: “Just don’t do anything rash. You’ve got me here and a lot of others. Kelcey was respected. Sienna…well…”

Kennedy and Trinity continue to head down the hallway. The camera turns to another hallway and then pans back as we see a familiar face, Devon Kayl looking around. He holds his head a bit as he glances back, presumably from the room he came out from. We then see Cupcake running over to him.

Devon: “Where am I? Damn, that was some nap.”

Cupcake: “Mexico City. Remember, you’re here on assignment.”

Devon: “I am?”

Devon notices Cupcake fully. He then nods.

Devon: “I am.”

Cupcake: “Your gear is that room. We brought it with you. I’ll come back in a bit to get you. Great….great to have you back working for SCW, Mr. Kayl.”

Devon: “My pleasure. Sorry…just a bit out of it. Busy schedule.”

Devon laughs as he looks around and Cupcake heads off. Devon Kayl returns to his room.

We open up at ringside. We see Knots looking down, annoyed as Sharper turns to him.

Sharper: “Welcome back to ringside. A surprise backstage with Devon Kayl. Moments before that, Trinity Street also here, clearly to support Kennedy Street and Kelcey Wallace. But Jon, I need to ask. Are you okay?”

Knots: “Oh I’m fantastic. Captain Coward comes out and paintbrushes me to pump himself up while he’s kissing Sienna’s face, ass and everything in between. I don’t give a damn about Kennedy coming out to save me. She’s a competitor. I’m not. But if it makes him feel better, I’m going to feel better whenever Kennedy gets her hands on Chris Cannon and this time, the son of a bitch can’t run!”

Crissy Gardner vs. Max Kane

The screech of a vulture is heard over the loud speaker before the opening guitar riff of Stitched Up Hearts' "Is This The Way To Hell" comes shredding through. The fans start to anticipate who is going be walking through the curtain. As the fans in the arena are cheering wildly as the lights in the arena as pair of strobe lights situated on the left and right side of the stage start to flash. The one on the light is purple in color while the one on the right is white, but the pair are flashing alternatively to give the illusion that they are custom cop car lights.

A spotlight focuses on the center of the stage where Crissy is standing with both of her arms raised in the air. She's wearing nearly complete black wrestling attire with the exception of purple accents. As she just stands there listening to the fans cheer her she starts to bring down her arms and she starts loosening up her wrists Ember Young and Ash Harte make their way on to the stage. Ember is seen clapping her hands, but Ash is carrying what appears to be a water bottle and a wooden stool in each of her hands. Crissy starts to make her way down to the ring shadow boxing along the way with Ember and Ash right behind her.  

Phillips: “The opening contest for Breakdown is scheduled for onefall and has a ten minute time limit. First, accompanied by Ash Harte and Ember Young, from South Bend, Indiana, she is The Serial Thrilla, Crissy Gardner!”

Crissy pulls herself up onto the apron as they both on the apron. Crissy just stands on the apron for several moments as she watches the fans with a smile on her face. Meanwhile, Ember and Ash climb in to the ring together. Ash sets the stool down in one of the corners while Ember tells Crissy it's time to get in to the ring. Once Crissy climbs in to the ring she wastes no time in sitting down on the stool with Ash squirting some of the water from the bottle in to her mouth much like a boxer. Crissy even knocks her hands together as if she were wearing boxing gloves as she awaits the start of the match.

Sharper: “Opening contest here in Mexico City will see who individuals who would love to put on a show and walk away a winner.”

Knots: “Yeah, but very different styles. Crissy Gardner has her entourage here and she’s going to be looking to knock Max Kane around. Kane is already trying to find the tallest thing he can fall from!”

KANE!

MAX!

KANE!

"Suck My Kiss" then hits the PA system; the lights flashing in sync with the bass. After a few seconds, Max Kane is propelled from underneath the ramp into the air. The crowd oohs as he then lands on his feet and drops to his knees on the ramp, the camera right in his face. Max yells at the camera before he stands on his feet. Max looks around the crowd as he immediately extends his arms out to the crowd. The young man is sporting a black and red "Rock N' Roll Unicorn" t-shirt with a Ferris Bueller leopard print best and a pair of shades on his face. Aroumd his waist, he has a Scream Machine shirt. Max flashes the shirt to the camera before walking to the other side of the stage. Max then walks to the middle of the ramp and storms down the ring.

Phillips: “Her opponent, from San Francisco, California, The Rock N' Roll Unicorn, Mad Max Kane!”

Max walks down to the ring, looking around the crowd, yelling to them. The youngster picks up his pace and towards the apron. He runs into the ring and immediately runs up the top rope. Max yells to the crowd and then cheer as he looks to hs left and then his right. He motions for the crowd to make some noise before he jumps off the ropes. He points to every section of the arena before extending his arms. He then claps his hands, yelling "KANE. MAX. KANE." The crowd responds as he smirks and retreats to the corner and starts moving around. He sees he camera and smirks while taking off his vest, shirt and Scream Machine shirt.

Sharper: “Mad Max Kane has a lot of energy, a lot of confidence.”

Knots: “He needs to start showing something for it. I’ll take this confidence instead of what we saw earlier. Son of a bitch.”

Sharper: “Easy there.”

Knots: “Don’t get me started on Superdouche.”

Kane looks at Crissy as the bell sounds. The two circle and Kane just smirks before looking at her. He says something at her. Crissy smirks and Kane moves in and Crissy nails him with a hard right. Kane stumble back. He smirks. Crissy looks at her, telling him to come in. Kane nods and runs at her. Crissy side steps and Kane runs up the corner. Crissy runs at him and Kane jumps back and lands on his feet. He smirks and Crissy nails him with a forearm shot and then a left to the ribs and a hard right to the jaw. Kane hits the mat. He rolls over and gets up and Crissy walks in and grabs him and knees him in the ribs. She spins him into the corner. Crissy moves in and Kane nails her with a headbutt and Crissy falls back and down to the mat. She rolls over as the crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Well we may have a fight here. Crissy throwing rights and lefts.”

Knots: “Kane just threw his head. Good thing he doesn’t use it!”

Crissy gets up and Kane runs at her and hits a running dropkick. Crissy falls back into the corner. Kane gets up and nails her with a forearm before he grabs her and whips her across the ring. Kane runs after and jumps up and hits her with a running splash into the corner. Crissy falls over. Kane quickly turns and exits to the apron and climbs up to the top rope. Crissy stirs and gets up and Kane stands on the top rope before diving off with a somersault dive, but Crissy moves out of the way. Kane hits the mat, back first. He gets up and turns and Crissy nails him with a roundhouse kick. The crowd ohs. Kane hits the mat and Crissy goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Hard enziguri and Crissy went full force into it.”

Knots: “Kane can take a beating. Crissy’s giving it, but I don’t think she expected him to get up there!”

Sharper: “And it may cost her.”

Crissy rolls over and Kane grabs her, pulling her up and scooping her onto his shoulder. He runs forward and hits the Bullseye. The crowd ohs. Crissy falls back and rolls over. Kane rolls her onto her back and goes for the pin.

Knots: “Looks like he learned jumping off tall things isn’t everything!”

Sharper: “Plants Crissy Gardner with the Ha, Ha, You’re Dead and picks up a win in a country he knows very well, doing some of his training here.”

Kane looks around and nods as he then goes to the corner and climbs up to the top rope. He celebrates as Crissy stirs, checked on by Ember and Ash and we cut away.

We open up backstage as we see Donovan Kayl walking through the backstage area, in his gear. The crowd roars seeing him.

Sharper: “There you see Donovan Kayl, about to make his last televised appearance in Mexico City, in what has been a hell of a career.”

Donovan then turns as we see Devon Kayl walking down the hallway, with a camera and some other gear. Donovan looks up and sees him.

Donovan: “Devon?”

Devon stops and looks at Donovan and smiles.

Devon: “Oh hey, Donovan!”

Donovan: “Why are you here? Don’t tell me SCW brought you in to detail my last few matches here?”

Devon looks around.

Devon: “That’s exactly why I’m here. Yeah. They brought me in for this to be a bit more special. Who else can make your retirement tour that much better? Kayl TV! That’s who!”

Donovan: “Well better let you get set up then. Match is next.”

Devon: “Uh perfect.”

Devon walks forward. Donovan takes a deep breath as Devon then walks back.

Devon: “Which way is the ring?”

Donovan points.

Devon: “Thanks!”

Devon runs off as we cut away.

COMMERCIALS

Donovan Kayl vs. Katie Steward

"Tom Sawyer” by Rush starts to play as the spotlight focuses on the top of the ramp. Immediately, the crowd rise to their feet in a raucous ovation.

A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride

Stepping out to the top of the ramp is "The Cornerstone" Donovan Kayl. He steps to the side, facing out to the crowd. As he stands atop the ramp, he throws his arm out with each big note of the beginning musical portion. After turning his head to survey the entire crowd, he turns to face the front of the ramp, beginning to walk out towards the ring.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, on his way to the ring, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, he is the Cornerstone of Professional Wrestling, Donovan Kayl!”

Kayl keeps his eyes focused on the ring ahead, and with a stoic gaze in his eyes, slaps the hands of a few fans at ringside. Devon runs out from behind him and starts to back up down the rampway, shooting his entrance, trying to get it all. Donovan just shakes his head. Once they gets to the bottom of the ramp, Donovan pulls himself up onto the apron, walking over to the corner. He climbs up onto the second rope, looking out over the crowd. Donovan throws his arms up for the roaring crowd, shouting out something that's just impossible to hear outside of the first couple of rows nearby. He hops to the top rope into the ring, moving to the middle where he spins once, dropping to a knee and shooting his arms out. He drops his head as the crowd showers the ring with streamers, cascading down around him as he looks at the ring under his knee before raising his head upward slowly. Devon films from the apron, nearly getting hit by a streamer himself before he drop sdown.

Sharper: “Donovan Kayl about to compete for the final time on Breakdown in Mexico. He’s got the rest of the tour here, but this is a treat.”

Knots: “Yeah, and in a couple of months, he’s hanging it up. Donovan Kayl however has to deal with the Scream Queen herself, Katie Steward. Let’s hope he maintains his hearing after this one. And apparently Devon Kayl is here to film it.”

Sharper: “Apparently. Although, we did see him Cupcake earlier. Something is off there. He didn’t even know he was in Mexico!”

The arena lights dim down and pink light shine on the stage. “Queen:” by Loren Gray plays as The Queen of Queens and Goddess of Desire Katie Steward steps out on the stage. She walks her beautiful white and gold ring robe and spins around in a circle showing it off the crowd. TJ Johnson walks out onto the stage with Katie and the two nod to on another before Katie continues her walk to the ring with her arms out and his hands at shoulder length.

Phillips: “His opponent, accompanied by TJ Johnson, from Hollywood, California, she is the Queen of Queens, Katie Steward!”

Katie walks around the ring and up the ring steps carefully and across the apron. TJ runs up after her and holds open the ropes for her to enter the ring. Katie walks to the center of the ring and she disrobes for the crowd. She shows off her wrestling attire. TJ takes her robe and exits the ring and Katie to her corner.

Sharper: “Katie Steward, also a veteran. These two have faced multiple times in the past. Should be a competitive match here.”

Knots: “The question is where Katie’s head is at. Gigi and Maddy both talking to different sisters, Sasha and Katya, last week. What side is Katie on?”

Sharper: “Or is she telling them to play both sides.”

Katie looks at Kayl as they circle. The crowd chants for Kayl as he looks around. Katie also looks around, although far less happy with the response and she then lunges at Kayl and Kayl turns only for Katie to forearm him in the jaw and then again. She grabs him and goes to run him into the corner, but Kayl blocks it and drives her into the top turnbuckle face first. Katie stumbles back and the crowd cheers. Katie turns and Kayl kicks her in the ribs and then locks in a side headlock. He pulls back and Katie gets him back to the ropes and hooks the bottom rope.

Katie rolls over to the ropes. TJ paces on the floor.

Sharper: “And Kayl came to compete. Katie trying to shoot the legs, but gets greeted with two scoop slams!”

Knots: “Crowd completely behind Kayl. Katie’s not happy about that.”

Katie grabs at the ropes. Kayl walks over and grabs her and pushes her into the ropes. He then fires her off. Katie bounces off and Kayl back elbows her down. He goes for the pin.

Kayl rolls over, grabbing at the ropes. Devon gets a shot of Donovan right in front of him from ringside.

Sharper: “Katie with the dropkick. Well positioned. Right to the back of the head.”

Knots: “And those are the types of kicks you hate to see. They catch you offguard. They can effect everything.”

Kayl continues to grab at the ropes and Katie turns and stomps him in the back and then again and again and again. The crowd boos as the referee calls for the break.

Katie looks around, stunned as the crowd cheers Donovan.

Sharper: “Kayl getting a big win here in Mexico. His final televised match!”

Knots: “Against a former World Champion. A hall of famer. Not a bad way to say goodbye to Mexico!”

Donovan continues to celebrate as the scene fades to black.

NOW!

The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that reverberates round the arena, before two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Cut The Cord" by Shinedown, hits.

"FREE-DOM LALALALA FREE-DOM FOLLOW ME!"

As the last word echoes, the lights start to strobe again briefly as the song reverberates throughout the arena now, causing the fans to boo. The lights finally flicker back on and Thomas Valentine can now be seen on top of the arena's ramp as he looks out into the audience. He stops and smiles a little before spinning around away from the fans and holding his arms outwards with his palms upwards, he then stops and then shakes his head before smirking and shrugging. Fireworks then shoot out at the top of the ramp in a burst before he resumes walking down to the ring.

Phillips: “The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for onefall and has a ten minute time limit! First, from Raleigh, North Carolina, he is Tommy Valentine!”

As he walks past the barrier he looks out into the crowds, the smirk still on his face before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, simply nodding before smiling at all the fans in the crowd. He jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles before standing still in the centre, cranking his neck. Thomas then stands motionless in the corner before waiting for his partner and opponents.

Sharper: “I don’t know what gotten into him, but Tommy has gradually become a jackass to put it bluntly.”

Knots: “Smirking at Xander Valentine. He’s pissing everyone off. At least he’s getting ass…literally. Him and Kandis seem to have struck something up. Better him than me. I don’t need more Man Sauce all over me!”

The opening bass of "Baby Got Back" begins and Kandis steps out from the curtain, a sway in her step. The music cuts to a remixed version of the chorus, with added bass, and Kandis turns around to wiggle her bountiful rear end. Some of the males in the crowd cheer as Kandis turns back and starts down the ramp.

Phillips: “His partner, from West Hollywood, California, she is Kandis!”

When Kandis gets to the ring steps, the line skips in the remix:

"My anaconda don't-- my anaconda don't-- my anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hon!"

Kandis shakes her hips in time to the words, then steps through the ropes and slaps her ass right at the whip sound. The bass line continues as Kandis bounces on her feet a little, shaking all of her assets. Her and Tommy talk a bit.

Sharper: “Kandis happy to be there. Happy to be competing, although some have noticed she’s not happy about a new addition to SCW coming in the near future.”

Knots: “One Gavin Taylor! And trust me, that’s a huge get for SCW!”

The first chords of "When Legends Rise" begins to play over the PA system. Glory Braddock steps out onto the stage, wearing her ring gear consisting of purple spandex pants, boots, and a purple top. She really does look like a million bucks and grins from ear to ear, gazing out at the crowd for a moment before making her way down the entrance ramp.

Phillips: “Their opponents, first, from London, England, she is the British Bombshell, Glory Braddock!”

The British Bombshell steps up the steel steps and then onto the ring apron. She poses momentarily on the apron, allowing people to take snapshots before stepping through the ropes and into the ring.  Once in the ring Glory heads to the center of the ring and poses once more. Then the music dies down slowly as she glances at Tommy and Kandis.

Sharper: “Glory Braddock may be walking into an uphill battle. Tommy and Kandis are enough of a challenge, but what frame of mind will Konrad Raab be.”

Knots: “Not just that, but will he have company?”

“Cold as Ice” by M.O.P plays over the sound system. Konrad comes out through the curtain, without his mask again. He just shakes his head as he takes a deep breath before starting to make his way down to the ring. As he does, we then see Giovanni Aries and Damian Angel walk out from behind and start to walk down. Damian taps his cane on the stage as Konrad then glances back and sees him. Glory steps through the ropes, calling out to Konrad.

Sharper: “We expecting this may be the case.”

Knots: “Glory trying to get Konrad’s attention.”

Giovanni Aries notably is wearing a mask of his own as Damian Angel smiles and walks over toward Konrad. Konrad just looks at them.

Konrad: “Leave me alone!”

Damian: “Konrad…we are just trying to help you embrace who you are!”

Damian glances back at Konrad.

Damian: “Just look at Giovanni. He can free you from the shackles of your mind and this company.”

Konrad: “I am not going to unleash that again!”

Giovanni then opens his pelt before holding up the Iceman mask that went missing weeks ago.

Sharper: “There’s that mask!”

Knots: “Well we all figured it to be them, no doubt now.”

Konrad looks at it.

Giovanni: “You do not need this.”

Giovanni then turns and tosses it down to the stage. Konrad looks at him as Glory steps down to the floor. She heads over and goes to Konrad, stopping him. She points to the ring. Konrad then glances back as Damian steps forward. Glory steps in front of Konrad.

Glory: “You stop this. You want nothing but your own purposes!”

Damian: “We just want people to be comfortable with themselves. With freedom!”

Glory: “With chaos?”

Damian smirks as we then hear a roar as Tommy and Kandis run up the rampway. Tommy nails Konrad from behind as Kandis nails Glory. The crowd boos. Kandis nails Glory again and spins her around and nails her with a hard right. Tommy grabs Konrad and throws him into the barricade. Damian and Giovanni stand back as Giovanni turns and returns to the back, intentionally stepping on the mask again as Damian remains at ringside.

Sharper: “Tommy and Kandis going right for Glory and Konrad.”

Knots: “They don’t care. They see a win!”

Sharper: “Giovanni leaving. Damian staying. And chaos is happening, planned or not.”

Knots: “It’s chaos Sharper. You can’t plan it! What are you? Jason Zero?!”

Tommy runs Konrad back to the ring and drives him face first into the apron. The official tries to get them into the ring and Kandis kicks Glory in the ribs before turning and rolling her into the ring. Kandis slides in after and Tommy gets Konrad in. He rolls in too. Both get up and Kandis kicks Glory in the ribs and nails her with a hard forearm to the jaw. Konrad gets up and Tommy kicks him in the ribs and then again before forearming him too. He looks at Kandis and Kandis nods. They both whip their respective opponent across and Glory and Konrad bounce off and Tommy lowers his head a bit early and Konrad drops to his knees and nails him with a hard right as Glory ducks a clothesline. Kandis turns and Glory hits a dropkick. Kandis falls back and rolls over to the ropes. Konrad then turns and stomps Tommy in the ribs as the bell sounds, the referee deciding to just start it. Glory exits the ring, turning to Konrad and saying something before Konrad pulls Tommy up and moves him into the corner. Konrad then knees him in the ribs over and over.

Sharper: “Konrad and Glory in control now. This match has started.”

Knots: “Somehow!”

Konrad then grabs Tommy and goes to whip him across. Konrad however stops him and pulls him back, causing him to go chest first into the corner and Konrad grabs him and hits a snap German suplex. The crowd roars. Konrad turns and tags in Glory. Glory climbs up to the top rope. She dives off with an elbow drop. The crowd roars. Konrad goes to the apron as Damian smiles. Glory then goes for the pin.

The crowd boos some as Glory stirs and Kandis walks over and hits a leg drop.

Sharper: “Kandis into the match and Glory in trouble.”

Knots: “So is Konrad!”

Konrad looks at Damian as Damian can be seen talking to him. The camera getting up close to them.

Damian: “Come on Konrad. You know that this is the way you will ensure you get respect. No one respects the nice, the kind. They respect honesty and Black Ice is who you are!”

Konrad turns away as Glory stirs, now up in the corner and Kandis hits a shoot kick to the ribs and then another. She grabs Glory and whips her across. Kandis runs after and hits a running backsplash. The crowd ohs. Glory falls to a knee. Kandis pulls her up and hits a vertical suplex and goes for the pin.

Kandis whips Glory across again and Kandis runs after and Glory gets her boot up. Kandis stumbles back and Glory pulls herself to the middle rope and then dives off with the Prankster’s Paradise!

Sharper: “Prankster’s Paradise as Glory gets a moment. But she’s just noticed that Damian Angel has been trying to get through to Konrad.”

Knots: “And Konrad’s had enough!”

Konrad drops down as Kandis moves to the ropes. Glory walks over toward Konrad. She snaps at him. Konrad looks at Damian and then turns and pulls himself back up onto the apron. Glory tags him in and says something to him. Damian shakes his head and suddenly, Glory grabs the top rope and hits a vaulting press onto Damian. The crowd erupts in cheers. Konrad just smiles and spins around as Kandis and Tommy, who came in illegally, both run across and Tommy hits the Knee Deep as Kandis hits the Starmaker. The crowd ohs. Konrad is laid out in the ring.

Sharper: “Dear God! The impact! Knee Deep and Starmaker!”

Knots: “Tommy saw the moment. Glory was in too long and the ref isn’t going to stop a running Tommy!”

Tommy turns and rolls to the floor and immediately nails Glory, knocking her down. Kandis sits on Konrad’s chest. Tommy rolls back in. The crowd boos.

The crowd boos as Kandis is helped up by Tommy. Konrad turns and rolls over, holding his jaw.

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, Kandis & Tommy Valentine!”

Sharper: “Konrad too focused on matters with Damian Angel. Glory Braddock even trying to take Damian out to let him focus but too little too late.”

Knots: “Tommy and Kandis made sure to get all of it. Konrad didn’t even see it coming. He was expecting one shot, not two!”

Tommy holds Kandis’ arm up and smiles as Glory starts to get up on the floor. She steps up to the ring. Damian meanwhile walks away from the ring. Glory turns and glances at him before turning back to the ring as Kandis and Tommy continue their celebration. Kandis even moves in close as if to kiss Tommy before waving her finger to the crowd. She pulls away as we cut to Konrad to see him rolling over and looking down, rubbing his jaw and we cut away.

Backstage we see Jessica Winters standing at the SCW interview area with Brittany Lohan who his finishing taping her wrists. The crowd cheers seeing the War Machine.

Jessica: “Jessica Winters here and I am with Brittany Lohan who later tonight will have her final match in Mexico City. But while that had been planned months ago from what I have found out, your opponent is a new addition. You’ve been accepting challenges on social media, but this one comes from the actions of someone else. Later tonight, you face Andrew Raynes who has said, and continues to tweet, particularly insulting things about your sister Dawn.”

Brittany rips off the roll of tape and throws it aside.

Brittany: “Dawn I know can fight her own battles, but her flaw has always been that she was happy to not waste her time on people who frankly didn’t matter. But Andrew, I don’t have that same flaw and frankly, after you gave James Evans a fight at Redemption, I figure you can help make me feel alive. And since you love to mock how you took people out, people who are better than you, I think it’s up to me to show you that you can hate all you want. But if you want to fight, and you want to run your mouth, you’re going to realize it ends badly for you. So Andrew…I’m here. And I want a fight.”

Brittany turns and looks off camera as it pans back. We see Abigail Lindsay, dressed as Sailor Moon, complete with the hair, smiling. The crowd roars.

Brittany: “Well Abi…”

Abigail: “I’m looking forward to watching you show that you can out hate, out fight Andrew.”

Brittany: “And I’m looking forward to seeing what Ravyn’s next move is. You went through with the getup too. Where’s your Mars?”

Abigail: “Couldn’t dig out the Passport fast enough.”

Brittany: “Probably for the best.”

Abigail: “Exactly. I can have all the fun to myself and when I get back to Los Angeles, have all the more fun then.”

Abigail smirks as she turns and heads off. The crowd roars as Brittany watches her leave and the scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as we see Bree Lancaster backstage with Spirit Dansby. The crowd boos seeing her. Scott Burnside stands with her.

Spirit: “Welcome back to Breakdown. I am here with Bree Lancaster and you’ve been outspoken about how upset you are with some of the opportunities you’ve gotten, but with the Beauty Factory only getting stronger, something has to be looking up.”

Bree: “Just that I have you interviewing me instead of that Selena shill, Jessica, it’s a big improvement. The fact is that I’ve learned very quickly that Sasha is no better than anyone else in her family and she’ll make up her own hypocritical rules to hold those down who threaten her. How else do we explain these challengers for the US Title? But that’s fine. I’ll just do what I was meant to do a long time ago. LAST YEAR in fact before I was passed over then. That’s right, it’s Taking Hold of the Flame season and this year, I’m taking it and Sienna and I are going to have the PERFECT main event. We’re going to show the world what it should’ve been. No Kennedy. No BS. Just the two best in SCW competing. Mark it down…just a matter of time.”

Spirit: “Well I can tell you, I hope that’s what happens. And if anyone can get through thirty-nine others, its you.”

Bree: “See…improvement.”

Bree smiles as we cut away.

The scene switches backstage as we see security, with road agent Beard, at one of the checkpoints backstage. Ravyn Taylor steps forward with CHBK.

Ravyn: “This is rather simple. So even all of you can understand this concept.”

Ravyn looks around.

Ravyn: “There you are Sasha. Shall we get to the point of this all?”

The camera pans back to show Sasha walking over. Along with her is the trainer, and another individuals.

Sasha: “Given that you’ve shown up moments after Abigail Lindsay was on television, I expect you already know that your condition is met. So this leads us to Syren?”

Ravyn: “I said she would be here-“

Sasha: “Ravyn. I am not in the mood for your games.”

Ravyn: “Shame. I very much am in the mood for games. Part of why I wanted Abigail here. She was fond of them too.”

CHBK just smiles.

Sasha: “Well if you want to play your games then, we need Syren to prove she is medically unfit to compete.”

CHBK: “Given that means she’s not competing or holding your World Title, at least publicly, I figured you’d enjoy that, or is Sienna a worst evil.”

Sasha: “It has nothing to do with that. It has everything to do with the fact that people pay to see the best and as much as I have issues with your attitude and hers, Syren is one of the best. But I am not going to let this continue in limbo. A term of the contract is that SCW doctors determine her fitness to compete and she is allowed to obtain a legitimate second opinion. Not the other way around. Now if Syren wants to remain the actual World Champion, she needs to have this assessment.”

Ravyn: “You’re lucky she was in a position to fly. Especially after what Abigail did and frankly, that alone could be seen as significant liability.”

Sasha sighs.

Sasha: “Then fine. Alex can be in the room if he wants. You can too. But consider this the foreplay to this non-existent legal threat you now have made. If she’s injured, we can work from there.”

CHBK: “You’ve learned well from your father…and me…”

Sasha: “Where is she?”

Ravyn: “She’s here. She’s just outside. With Alexander, to ensure that someone doesn’t try anything. I happen to be protective of my wife. You should be more protective of your World Champion.”

Sasha: “Then get her. This is Dr. Jackoviac. He will do the original assessment of her fitness to compete. Beard…when she walks in, you can escort them to the office we’ve set up. And make sure they’re safe.”

Beard: “Can do.”

CHBK turns to Ravyn.

CHBK: “I’ll take care of it. You take care of what else you wanted to do.”

Ravyn: “Naturally.”

Ravyn turns to Beard.

Ravyn: “Could you direct me to Abigail’s locker room?”

Beard points to the left.

Beard: “Down that hallway, a few doors down.”

Ravyn: “Excellent.”

Ravyn walks in the opposite direction. CHBK heads out of the building. Sasha watches Ravyn for a bit before turning and heading off herself and we cut away.

The scene opens up backstage to see Sienna smiling at the monitor in the Beauty Factory locker room before turning and looking at Chris.

Sienna: “Shame that not everyone in your family has a working brain.”

Chris: “Alexander always made some questionable choices. Just happy that he’s at least not directly related to me. There’s a bit to water it down and well…”

Sienna: “I’ll just be happy to hear the whining. Just would love to know what the neck brace was for. People call you spineless, but they should be looking at Syren.”

Chris: “Just shows they haven’t a clue.”

Chris smirks as we see Laura walk over.

Laura: “Not like it matters. If we have a unification match, you better believe we’re going to make sure all that happened at Making Things Right never has a chance to take place.”

Sienna: “That’s the first thing we’re going to demand. A FAIR fight.”

London and Paris smile in the background.

London: “Speaking of which-“

Paris: “Does anyone know what is going on with Team Mental Health Crisis?”

London: “You always have a lovely way of putting it.”

Paris: “Why sugarcoat it? They need help. And it won’t come from us kicking their ass.”

LEO: “I could take care of it.”

Paris smirks.

Paris: “That could be fun.”

London: “That could be.”

Laura: “I’ll find out. There are a lot of questions and we’re going to get answers. I think Sasha and I had a non-verbal agreement three weeks ago. Let’s see if she is better than any of her other ilk.”

Sienna: “Let’s hope she doesn’t follow the Alexander Crowe approach where the other apples fall VERY far from the tree.”

Chris: “We’ll deal with it anyway.”

The crowd boos as we cut away.

We open up to see Syren walking through the backstage area, wearing her neck brace. CHBK and Alexander Crowe are with her, Crowe even holding her World Championship, as are several security guards and Beard.

Syren: “Come on. Make a proper perimeter. Your real World Champion is here.”

Sharper: “Syren is here. And she’s already making her presence felt.”

Knots: “And CHBK and Alexander Crowe with her. Of course, she has the title!”

Sharper: “This could be a very interesting night.”

Knots: “We just heard from Laura too. Sasha better be ready. And we’ve not even heard anything regarding Xander!”

Sharper: “Much more to come here on Breakdown, live from Mexico City! We’ll be back after this!”

The scene fades to black.

Brittany Lohan vs. Andrew Raynes

The arena goes dark and strobe lights pulse through the arena as "Through Struggle" hits the speakers. The crowd erupts into raucous boos as the lights dim around the entrance ramp, smoke begins to rise. After the intro kicks in, the lights start flashing as the smoke gets thicker, after a few moments we see Andrew Raynes appear through the smoke, his head shifted towards the ring, focused, a cold stare. He stands there for a few seconds still looking around, devoid of the fans.  He starts walking slowly with a cold stare in his eyes. 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty minute time limit. First, from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada, he is Andrew Raynes!”

As he continues to look focused, he makes his way down the ramp, ignoring the fans. He walks down towards the ring where he slides in under the bottom rope. He pops up in the middle of the ring and looks around. He looks over at his opponent with a cold stare, sizing them up before the match even starts. 

Sharper: “Andrew Raynes is just pissed off. Nothing new there.”

Knots: “Yeah, but maybe he pissed off the wrong person! Brittany Lohan didn’t take kindly to what he said last week!”

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

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

Phillips: “His opponent, from San Diego, California, she is Brittany Lohan!”

With clenched fists, gritted teeth, and glaring icy eyes… Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically. Lohan is taking slow, calculated, but powerful steps towards the ring. Her icy glare is so fixated on the ring that it would seem to appear that she doesn’t realize that the arena is nearly sold out. The way that she looks right now it might as well be empty for all she cares. As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down to a snail’s pace as she proceeds to walk around the perimeter of the ring with her eyes closed. When she’s satisfied she opens her eyes and reaches up to grab the bottom rope with her right hand and pulls herself up onto the apron only allowing one knee to touch before she rolls into the ring. With Lohan in the ring she gets on both of her knees, closing her eyes, as she lifts both of her arms up into the air. She holds that position for several seconds before she slows climbs up to her feet, but then as if a switch was flipped somewhere her entire presence changes. It intensifies as she starts to warm up by running off the ropes and doing some stretches as she waits for her victim of the night.

Sharper: “Lohan making her final appearance in Mexico and she is ready to compete.”

Knots: “She better be. We know Andrew will happily have a fight and Brittany never shied from one!”

Brittany looks at Andrew as the crowd roars as the bell sounds. Lohan comes out and Andrew smirks as he walks along the ropes. Brittany watches him and Andrew then chuckles before turning and moving in and kicking Brittany in the ribs. He nails him with a hard right and then a back chop. The crowd woos.

The opening beats to Southpaw Swagger's “It's Showtime” kicks in over the speaker system, the fans jumping to their feet in acknowledgment of who is about to step out onto the stage. The crowd roars as Owen Cruze walks out from the back. He looks around the arena and then starts to head to the ring.

Sharper: “Owen Cruze joining us and you wonder what he’s thinking about everything.”

Knots: “Everyone’s got their mind on Owen. Giovanni Aries is trying to turn him to the Wonderland. He’s I’m sure got something to say about Sienna and Chris too.”

Owen reaches the ring and walks up the steel steps. He then walks along the apron and into the ring. He turns and heads over to the corner and is handed a microphone by Jason Phillips. Owen turns back to the middle of the ring. He looks around the arena and nods at the crowd, his usual smile absent. The music fades out as Owen looks out at the crowd.

Owen: “It’s been an interesting couple of weeks, hasn’t it?”

Owen nods.

Owen: “You know, just over two weeks ago I fought Sienna Swann in this ring for the interim SCW World Championship. And we had a hell of a match and frankly, she won. She showed she is one of the best in the world.”

The crowd boos a bit.

Owen: “Now I could come out here and talk about how I’m going to learn from it and in a couple of weeks, months, years, whatever and earn my way back and walk out with that title. The problem is that the story involving the World Championship and Sienna Swann is different. We have one World Champion trying to duck their responsibilities, now getting a medical examination to prove what we all know…they’re full of crap! We then have an interim World Champion that now has effectively convinced, stolen, conned, I don’t know, I don’t care…but she’s made sure Superman is dead.”

Owen pauses.

Owen: “And all of this is while I have one jackass running around trying to get me to join the damn Wonderland and an Executioner taking out the founder of this company for reasons we don’t know yet. And there are a number of us who are standing in this ring, in that backstage area, looking at this going, we fought against this and we are going to keep doing so. It’s why Sasha’s in charge. It’s why we stood up for what we believed in and at that time, it was like fighting part of a family and Chris…you threw that all away.”

The crowd roars.

Owen: “I don’t think I need to hide what side I’m on in all of this. I don’t think I need to even explain it when Kelcey Wallace was helping me in my business and professional interests and has been one of the biggest supports in my young career. And Chris, you threw that away because why? People believed that you may have cost Kennedy. It was just an accident…I’m nineteen Chris and even I know that the way you acted was going to ensure no one gave you the benefit of the doubt. I’m nineteen and get it, but you, with a child, married...well….you can’t. But you get to be with Sienna…fall into the arms of an angel. And here we are. Chris…we called you Superman for a reason. Seems you just were another fraud. And SCW has a lot of them. From Syren, to Sienna, to now Chris….I’m getting sick of it.”

The crowd cheers.

Owen: “Now I don’t expect you to come out here.”

BACKSTAGE: Chris is seated with Sienna on one of the couches backstage. He starts to get up. Chris: “Perhaps I should say something.” Sienna: “Why? You’re perfect right here.” She smirks.

Owen: “I don’t expect you to finally decide to stand up for anything beyond your desire to attack Jonathan Knots or needle Kennedy Street or continue to do whatever you’re doing.”

Owen: “You just proved you’re another person who needs to remember what we all do here. Is that worth your marriage? Your family?!”

Rise!!!!
Look deep into his eyes!
Rise!!!!
Look deep into his eyes, that's where the fire lies!

“Eyes Like Fire” by Collision of Innocence plays as the crowd boos. Owen turns and looks to the entrance way, clearly annoyed.

Sharper: “What the hell?”

Knots: “Well Chris isn’t coming out. Owen wouldn’t know that. Only we saw that. That was not on the big screen.”

Instead of Alistaire Allocco though, we see Adam Allocco walk out from the back. He has a microphone in his hand. He looks around and then turns to the big screen, although, nothing is showing there regarding anything other than the scene in the ring.

Adam: “Don’t worry, Chris, Sienna…I got this. I’ll calm the boy down.”

Adam turns back to Owen. Owen just looks at him in disbelief.

Adam: “Now Owen, I know that you’re just out here, pretending to be all high and mighty, defending one of the greats in SCW history in Kelcey Wallace or some such. We all know that you’re just angling for another rematch against Sienna Swann.”

The crowd boos.

Owen: “Are you serious?”

Adam: “Are YOU serious? I mean, I get the fake outrage. But I have legitimate outrage! My son should be leading this company. He already was an amazing World Champion for a couple of months. Now, he should get a proper shot and I mean, he’s my son. That already makes him better than most, but he’s great in that ring and he should be next. I’ve been saying this for months. Since I got here. My outrage is consistent! We need an Allocco on top!”

Adam walks to the ring and hops onto the apron.

Adam: “So Owen, if you can just step aside, Alistaire can take care of Sienna. And plus, think of Chris, have you seen Sienna? No offense to Kelcey, but she’s easy on the eyes, and I’m sure she’s not failing like Kelcey i-“

Owen immediately steps forward and grabs Adam and pulls him into the ring. The crowd roars as Adam rolls over to his back and Owen dives onto him and mounts him, nailing him with a series of hard right hands. Adam tries to frantically cover up.

Sharper: “The hell is wrong with Adam?”

Knots: “Right now, it’s he’s getting his ass beat for being an insensitive troll!”

Owen gets a couple more shots in as Adam rolls over, and to the ropes before falling to the floor. Adam rolls over, looking at the ring, stunned.

Sharper: “Owen Cruze teaching Adam Allocco a bit in respect!”

Adam starts to get up, holding his lip. Owen just looks down at him, ready to fight more if he wants. Adam starts to get up and stumbles over to the side as Owen watches him. We then cut away.

“The Old Me” by Memphis May Fire plays as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. A shot of Alexis Quinne and then Selena Frost comes up, before showing the SCW US Championship.

Sharper: “As Adam slinks away, next, the US Championship will be on the line. Selena Frost, the fighting champion, she defends against Alexis Quinne, next!”

The scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as we see Adam Allocco walking backstage, holding his jaw.

Adam: “Young bastard hurts.”

Adam takes another steps before Alistaire comes over.

Alistaire: “What was that about? You chastise him and then defend a philanderer. An adulterer?!”

Adam: “Look. Kids like that, you need to speak in terms they understand. They’re not all up here like you are. But I made my case and I’m happy about it.’

???: “You pathetic….person!”

Alistaire turns as Peyton Rice comes up and nails Adam with a hard right. The crowd ohs and Adam goes down. Alistaire stands in front of Peyton.

Peyton: “To insult Kelcey…she’s better than you could ever dream of!”

Alistaire: “Peyton. Please. I understand your anger at my father’s failings. But no need to for such physical violence outside of the confines of the ring.”

Peyton looks at Alistaire.

Peyton: “And I heard what you had to say. Perhaps you should talk to your father more. And to think I actually thought you had come cute qualities.”

Adam: “Ha! Told you son!”

Peyton goes to strike him again, but Alistaire stops him. She steps back and Goddard then comes into view. Alistaire looks at him.

Goddard: “Come on child.”

Peyton: “You should stop defending him. He has nothing worth defending.”

Adam slowly gets up as Alistaire turns to him.

Adam: “See! Told you you could bag her. Just go for it.”

Alistaire shakes his head and walks off as we cut back to the ring.

Alexis Quinne vs. Selena Frost

SCW United States Championship

The eyes all focus on the stage as A Stranger I Remain hits over the P.A System. The lights begin to flash orange, red and black crowd starts to buzz and cheer. As the crowd looks on and the song kicks into gear, smoke fills up the stage. The lights continue to flash black and purple. From there, the crowd sees Alexis Quinne, standing with her head lowered, a black hat with an orange, red and black Poncho with gray and brown pants. Alexis lifts her her head up and we see she's wearing a black and orange Guy Fawkes mask with El Rudo's mask in her left hand. Quinne turns around and peers to the crowd. She then heads down to the ring.

Phillips: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the SCW United States Championship! Introducing first…From San Francisco, California Pint Sized Awesomeness...ALEXIS QUINNE!

Alexis walks down to the ring, her head lowered. She's looking around the ring. The camera does a full rotation as Quinne walks past it. Quinne stops mid-way. She hunches her back as she quickly walks down the ring. Eventually, Alexis jumps on the apron and enters the ring through the bottom rope. Alexis then ascends up the top turnbuckle and unmask herself. Alexis this spits out a red mist of sorts in the air, catching the crowd by surprise. Alexis takes off her hat and licks some of the mist from her mouth before she flashes the crowd the peace sign before shortly turning it into a fist. As she holds out her fist, she twist her head around the arena. Alexis jumps off and crouches in the corner, looking around as she grits her teeth. She places Rudo's mask on the apron as she grabs the bottom ropes with her two hands.

Sharper: “As you heard ladies and gents, our next contest is for the SCW United States Championship. Alexis Quinne was named as the challenger. She will face a rival from her past.”

Knots: “Yep, Alexis has a chance to get a measure of revenge on the person who beat her for the SCW World Championship.”

"BELIEVE IT!"

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

Fans: WE BELIEVE! WE BELIEVE!

Looking around the arena, Selena smiles at the voice of her true-believers before sliding into the ring. Inside, the Winter Diamond is quickly on her feet, stepping into the center of the ring as all the snowflake-lights rush to form a large blue-white snowflake-shaped light over Selena. Raising her arms, the Defier of Worlds looks up at the lights before they return to normal. With a smile, Selena removes her ice-shard cape, folding it and placing it aside before returning her attention to the ring.

Phillips: “Introducing next…she is the Snow Queen…she is the SCW United States Champion…SELENA FROST!!!”

Sharper: “Selena Frost, the US Champion, faced Quinne a few years ago at the End of the Year Special, making the most of the fans voting for her to receive a shot at the World title. She defeated Quinne to claim her first of two World titles in SCW.”

Knots: “The fans want to know if Selena can pull off the win once again, or if Alexis Quinne can turn things around and claim another piece of gold.”

Selena hands the referee the still dismantled United States title and he hoists it up in the air as the crowd cheers. The ref hands the belt to the timekeeper before signaling the bell for the match to begin. Selena and Alexis are shown standing in opposite corners for a few moments before Selena steps forward into the center of the ring. Alexis follows suit before both lock up in the middle of the ring. Alexis snatches a side headlock. Alexis transitions into a wrist lock, behind the back, but Selena connects with a back elbow, causing Alexis to stumble back.

Selena turns and faces Alexis. Selena grabs Alexis’ arm and twists it as Selena twists underneath. Selena then drives an elbow into the center of Alexis’ arm. Alexis stumbles forward, clutching her arm. Alexis turns only for Selena to land a dropkick, taking Alexis down to the mat.

Sharper: “Selena taking Alexis off her feet.”

Selena gets to her feet then drops an elbow into Alexis’ arm, before following up with a leg drop to the same arm. Selena gets to her feet then pulls Alexis up from the mat. Selena delivers a knife edge chop to the upper body. Alexis stumbles back a bit before charging forward with a forearm to the side of Selena’s head. Selena staggers and Alexis begins to land forearm after forearm, backing Selena into the ropes.

Knots: “Alexis making a comeback, using her good arm and driving it into Selena’s skull.”

Alexis goes to whip Selena across the ring, but Selena reverses before connecting with a spinning heel kick. Alexis hits the mat and Selena goes for the cover.

Alexis kicks out. Selena gets to her feet and begins to kick Alexis in the already worn down arm, before Alexis rolls away and out of the ring. Alexis is shown clutching her arm.

Sharper: “Our United States Champion has really gone to work on Alexis’ arm and those kicks weren’t doing the challenger any favors. Getting out of the ring to create some distance may have been a smart move.”

Selena is shown bouncing off the ropes and charging across the ring, before going for a baseball slide, but Alexis gets out of the way. Alexis pulls Selena out of the ring, grabs her by the hair before Alexis leaps up, connecting with a high knee. Alexis hits another high knee followed by another. Alexis then delivers another forearm to the side of the head before an elbow into the upper back.

Knots: “Alexis trying to make the most of Selena’s miss.”

Alexis hits another forearm to the side of the head before whipping Selena into the steel steps. Selena hits hard before dropping to the ground. Alexis rolls into the ring, clutching her arm once again.

Sharper: “Alexis clutching that arm yet again. Every time she uses it, she could be doing more damage.”

Knots: “She’s creating distance once again, trying to give herself time to breath and maybe regain some feeling in that arm.”

Selena is shown getting to her feet before slowly rolling into the ring. Alexis gets to her feet and charges across the ring and lands a running dropkick to the side of the head. Alexis then goes for the cover.

Selena kicks out. Alexis gets to her feet as does Selena. Alexis charges to the ropes before leaping off of them and turning. Alexis catches Selena and plants her with a tornado DDT. Alexis goes for another cover.

Sharper: “Alexis drops the champion with the Ditzy Tour. Going for another pin attempt.”

Selena kicks out once more. Alexis gets to her feet, pulling Selena off of the mat. Alexis fires away with another round of forearms before going to whip Selena across the ring. Selena charges toward the ropes but springboards off of them connecting with a corkscrew flying shoulder, right into Alexis’ bad arm, taking her off her feet.

Knots: “Selena connecting with the Cold Shoulder.”

Alexis is shown grabbing her arm once more as she slowly climbs to her feet, using the ropes. Alexis turns around as Selena is shown charging toward her. Selena hits a few forearms of her own, followed by a crescent kick. Alexis stumbles back into the ropes before slowly stepping forward as Selena leaps up before pulling Alexis into the Frost Bite.

Sharper: “Frost Bite is locked in. Selena pulling on that weakened arm of Alexis’!”

The ref begins checking on Alexis who is shown reaching for the ropes as Selena pulls even more. Alexis tries to fight it, shaking her head no at the ref.

Knots: “Alexis is trying to fight it. Trying to break free.”

Sharper: “Alexis doesn’t have anywhere to go and Selena isn’t letting go either.”

The ref checks in with Alexis once again as Selena tightens the hold and pulls on the arm even more. Alexis is heard yelling and is shown grinding her teeth before she finally taps. The crowd begins cheering as the ref calls for the bell. Selena releases the hold. Alexis drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring as Selena climbs to her feet just as the ref hands her the SCW United States title.

Sharper: “Alexis Quinne with a valiant effort, even trying to fight off the Frost Bite, but in the end, Selena Frost retains.”

Phillips: “Here is your winner by submission…and still SCW United States Champion…Selena Frost!!!”

Selena is shown celebrating in the ring with the title before the cameras cut away.

Backstage, we cut to show the outside of the trainer’s room. Spirit Dansby stands by outside.

Sharper: “Well we are still waiting to hear anything regarding Syren’s examination. Obviously, this will take some time, but we have Spirit Dansby waiting outside if anything is revealed.”

Knots: “Yeah. The irony. Sienna’s friend doing the interview if we find anything out. This is going to be a fun night.”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we open in the office of Sasha to see her talking to Laura Steinbeck.

Laura: “So I think it’s fair that we clear the air and make things fair for everyone. We don’t want a repeat of Making Things Right, do we?”

Sasha: “I have no intention of letting anything like that happen, but let’s not act like you and Sienna were innocent in that match. The Network was greatly involved as were the Twins.”

Laura: “Speaking of the Twins, anything regarding Mr. Evans? I hope he’s getting the help he needs.”

Sasha: “SCW is taking care of it. And that’s all I’ll say there. The Trueloves are next in line. They don’t need to worry about it.”

Laura: “Perfect. Now as long as we have ways to protect everyone. And please, no cage match. Do you not want your future standardbearers to win things in a true contest, as has traditionally been done.”

Sasha: “When I have news, I’ll make it.”

Laura: “Well then, do you have any news on Syren? We all know she’s faking it. So this should be straightforward. She’ll be next to face Sienna and we can end her fraud and move forward with Sienna as the undisputed World Champion, when frankly, she’s been it since last summer?”

Sasha: “Laura. I thought we were clearing the air. Not repeating your marketing speak. As for Syren, until I hear anything, I’m not going to announce anything. All I’ll say is that if Syren is cleared, she’ll have a choice. And as per the rules of interim championship, a unification match needs to take place as soon as possible. I’m not going to play with that rule. We’re coming up to Rise to Greatness. Three months from now. The greatest event in wrestling. And I’m going to make sure it stands up to everything is company and my father have done.”

Laura: “Will when you have the Truelove Twins and Sienna as champion? And you should reconsider Bree’s rematch. Lord knows we don’t need Selena facing more people who haven’t moved on from their past glory.”

Sasha: “I don’t care who is champion, Laura. I care that we have legitimate champions and no controversy. Period. So Laura, if you want, keep talking your people up. I’ve heard you. The Twins have their shot. Sienna will defend her title. But at the same time, Chris will need to answer for what he’s done and Bree will have to realize her actions had consequences. Just like Syren will too.”

Laura: “Fine…”

Laura turns and exits the office. Sasha watches her leave as we cut away.

Manvel vs. Total Terror

Darkness.  Quiet.  After a moment, Pyro explodes illuminating Terror at the top of the ramp.

I'm a bored out Big block 454
I'm a billboard of buckshot that can't be ignored
I'm a thrift store of filth, I was built to enrage
I'm the realest mother******  and I'm coming of age

More pyro explodes around him and he bursts to life, running down the ramp. As he reaches the ring, he slides under the bottom rope without stopping his run, and then jumps to a standing position, his head down, in the middle of the ring. Pyro explodes from the corner post as the chorus of the song hits. Terror raises one arm in the air with a closed fist. The lights come up, and he gently passes his jacket and sunglasses to the ring attendant.

Knots: “Total Terror making another appearance, seriously I thought we see the last of him when he faced the man Mountain.”

Sharper: “It appears we have not and against a former ally of the Man Mountain and Cookie no less.”

Knots: “Manvel getting some TV time tonight, guess he’ll take what he can get.”

“Behind The Stars” by Mercy Drive begins to play throughout the arena….

Manvel suddenly appears on the Tron as he hops out and poses at the entranceway with Cupcake and Scotty either side of him. The threesome start making thier way down to the ring, Manvel trying to kiss all the girls, but Cupcake pie facing said fans in the face preventing them from doing it although none are actually interested.

Manvel hops around excited as he gets a mix reaction of cheers and boos.

He slides into the ring literally and gets up, he poses and hops on to the second turnbuckle as the crowd boos and cheers. He hops back down and starts to talk to the referee while showing off his MANLy abs and Mantastic physique….

Waiting for the match to start as Cupcake and Scotty walk around to his corner to converse strategy...

Sharper: “Do those two really need to be out here tonight? They couldn’t stay in the back?”

Knots: “I agree, it isn’t like Manvel is a coward like that jack ass Chris Cannon.”

Sharper: “Are you going to go over this again this week?”

Knots: “We’ll see.”

The bell sounds and Terror runs out of his corner looking to take Manvel by surprise but Cupcake points which gives the Mantapede the opportunity to mule kick Total Terror in the gut. Manvel spins around and clocks him once with a right hand, Total terror stumbling back before getting taking off his feet with a Manvelous Dropkick for his trouble. The crowd boo while Cupcake and Scotty cheer at ringside, Manvel sliding along the ring effortlessly due to all the oil on him and covers.

1.. KICK OUT BY TOTAL TERROR!!

The crowd cheers a little although both are kinda douches. Manvel rolls off Total Terror and immediately goes back on the offensive with a stomp to the chest, he pulls Terror up and sends him to the ropes and looks for a clothesline attempt but Terror ducks under it and slides to a stop behind Manvel. Cupcake and Scotty shout to warn him, but Manvel turns around into a right hand, he then hits another and another before clotheslining Manvel to the canvas instead. The fans pop a little for Total Terror who runs the ropes and leaps up into the air before landing a leg drop across Manvels oily chest, he then covers but not without his hand slipping off first…

1… NO KICK OUT BY MANVEL!!

Shaper: “Neither showing signs of losing so far, early days yet.”

Knots: “But that oil proving difficult for Total Terror, almost slipped off that pin cover there.”

Manvel rolls away from Terror who gets back to his feet and begins to stalk Manvel as he begins to get to his feet. Manvel shakes the cobwebs away but feels Terrors arms lock on around his waist, he tries to fight it with Terror looking for a German Suplex, but the oil from Manvels body allows him to slip through his arms!! Which gets a roar from the crowd as Terror stumbles back. Manvel shrugs his shoulders and runs at Total Terror and hits a running knee strike to the chest, Terror stumbles into the ropes and Manvel scoops him up and spins over into a slam into the canvas where he then hooks boot legs.

2.. NO KICK OUT BY TERROR!!

Manvel slaps the mat in frustration.

Knots: “Close fall there, that oil proving most effective in this match.”

Sharper: “That should be illegal.”

Knots: “What are you talking about?! You had no qualms while he was with Derek and Cookie.”

The crowd roars once again with Terror kicking out of the cover, Manvel looks at the referee and demands he learns to count to three, Daddy. Scotty beckons Manvel over who runs over to get a refresh of baby oil on his body thanks to a spray. The referee tells him to get back into this as Terror gets back up to his feet. Manvel turns and runs at him only to get lifted up onto his shoulders where Terror falls back and hits a Samoan drop on Manvel. He winces in pain as does Terror, but he gets to his feet first and turns around before leaps back and hitting a moonsault to add insult to injury. Terror then covers Manvel but not without once again slipping off as he pressed down onto his chest for a moment…

1…

2… NO KICK OUT BY MANVEL!!

Terror slaps the mat this time with his hand slipping off the surface to a roar from the crowd. There is way too much baby oil in this match now. The fans start to rally behinds Total Terror this time as he gets to his feet and looks to end this match now, he’s had enough and waits for Manvel to get to his feet. As he begins, Terror runs the ropes only to stop when he see’s Cupcake standing there at ringside all flirtatiously. She blows a kiss towards Total Terror and adjusts her top a little to a roar from the crowd. Terror smirks a little and winks but by doing so is unaware of Manvel charging at him. He turns around only to get caught by the Mankick, that impact along with the ropes sends him flying into the ring again and to the canvas where Manvel slides across to cover like a slippery snake.

3!!!

The bell sounds and Mercy drives behind the star’s hits over the P.A System, the fans boo loudly while Cupcake and Scotty both cheers. Manvel rolls out of the ring and is hugged by both, Cupcake planting a big kiss on his lips as all three celebrate in the aisle while Total Terror lays on the canvas holding his face from the vicious Mankick.

Sharper: “Manvel with the win tonight, a big win for him with Taking Hold of the Flame on the horizon.”

Knots: “It is, everyone is going to need all the momentum with the most challenge match in SCW history on the horizon. But come Taking Hold of the Flame. Things are going to get interesting!”

We see Abigail Lindsay walking backstage, still in her Sailor Moon gear. She just walks over to an official.

Abigail: “Psst!”

The official turns.

Abigail: “Seen Ravyn?”

The official turns and points down the hallway.

Abigail: “Great. Tell her I’m looking for her.”

Abigail smirks and walks in the opposite direction, even skipping.

Knots: “Not going to go to her?”

Sharper: “They’re both just screwing with each other this point!”

The scene fades to black.

Backstage, we see Sasha backstage in her office with Dean Black.

Black: “Thought anything about it?”

Sasha: “Thinking always about it. The problem is that we saw it. All the people who stood up for my dad.”

Black: “On their side or looking to say goodbye to it?”

Sasha: “I don’t know. I look at the people who want to stand up for him…to the people who are taking credit for Xander…to this all with Dark Fantasy and the Beauty Factory. And I see all of the people lining up.”

Black: “You’re in charge though. You need to remember that. Just like you had a lot of people lining up to fight for you at Retribution. You made tough decisions. Yes, some have consequences. But you need to trust your gut here. It’s not your dad. Not your sister. Just you.”

Sasha nods.

Black: “If it helps, I know what I’d do. I owe him a receipt too.”

Sasha looks at Dean Black as he turns and steps out of the office. Sasha watches him leave as we cut away.

We cut backstage to another part of the arena to see Manvel walking down the hallway. Cupcake runs into a room as we see Devon Kayl with his gear.

Manvel: “Alright, daddy. Time for us to start what we all came here to do. Time to start making a blockbuster.”

Devon: “Alright. Well, did you bring my extra cards?”

Manvel: “We can pick it all up on the way.”

Devon looks at Manvel stunned.

Devon: “We’re…we’re in Mexico, right?”

Manvel: “Yeah, daddy. And we got some spicy senioritas who are ready to perform for Mantastic Movies!”

Devon: “Well we can film them. I only had one card-“

Manvel: “It’s fine…just it anyway. Come on, daddy. Cupcake needs to get changed and we’ll be good.”

Manvel places his arm around Devon. Devon pulls away, protecting his camera.

Devon: “Shouldn’t you…and, here…”

Devon wipes off the camera with his shirt.

Devon: “You should limit the oil…bad for the camera.”

Manvel: “No can do. Gotta look my best. Come on. Let’s get ready.”

Devon: “But I…sure. Let’s do it.”

Devon smiles as he looks around and Manvel drags him off.

Cassidy Carter vs. Ruby Amarant

The rifts to "Na na na" by My Chemical Romance begins to play throughout the arena as the spoken intro opens up. Strobe lights begin flashing between different shades of blue, green and red in rapid succession as Cassidy Carter steps out to a barrage of boos with Ace Marshall not that far behind her. She smiles broadly while stepping in a rhythm around the stage to match the beat as her one woman rave show continues. She throws one arm up over her chest while thrusting the other to the side before bowing smugly before the booing masses. She makes her way down the ramp, now in full spirits, not really focusing on anything. Her arrogance and lack of real concern or worries showing in spades. She reaches the apron before pulling herself up using the bottom rope for support. Standing along it she raises her head up to the rafters while leaning fully into the top rope. She sways her hips seductively before flipping over the top rope, landing inside the ring before turning and throwing her arms up and walking toward the center of the ring, dancing a bit in a straight line to her own theme song. Her self admiration and confidence continuing to be on full display for the world to grovel in. She raises her arms further up, now placing her hands on the back of her head before making her way to the corner. Stepping up onto the second rope she sits on the top turnbuckle before laying back across the top rope, propping her legs crossed casually over the other side. She appears to be becoming slightly impatient now in her comfortable spot waiting for this ordeal to begin and be over with, though Ace does step up onto the apron to keep her entertained with ideas of what they’ll do once this is all wrapped up.

Sharper: “Cassidy’s bright start to the year has slowly fallen apart thanks to her and Ace constantly being the victim of Dark Fantasy’s schemes, but tonight would go a long way in trying to get some of that momentum back.”

Knots: “We know that Ace has plans on throwing his name into the battle royal on the horizon. I don’t know if Cassidy has similar plans, but I do know she’d probably love nothing more than to ring the necks of the likes of Christy Matthews and Alexander Crowe after Tabula Rasa.”

The Twilight In Your Eyes begins to play, the haunting melody overtaking the arena as the lights dim and ruby red lighting settles on the stage. Ruby Amarant slowly walks out onto the stage, her eyes slowly roaming over the fans with a cold, emotionless look. Scarlet Grey slowly follows her out with a smirk and starts running a hand up and down her body to make sure that all eyes are on her. Ruby allows her to do this before she slowly begins to make her way down to the ring, not paying any mind to the fans even if some of them share their appreciation for the beautiful figure walking past their gaze. She slides into the ring and slowly rises to her feet as Scarlet moves to stand in her corner, a smirk beginning to form on her lips as the lights return to normal.

Sharper: “Ruby, meanwhile, is trying to bounce back after losing the TV Title to Marie Jones a few weeks back along with her and Scarlet once again failing to secure a shot at the Tag Titles at Tabula Rasa.”

Knots: “People have drawn a lot of similarities between Ruby and Ravyn, and considering Dark Fantasy is at the top of Cassidy’s hit list right now I can’t imagine she’s going to approach this any differently than if she got the chance to behead Ravyn herself.”

The bell rings and Cassidy walks out to the center of the ring, grinning and daring Ruby to come take the first shot. Ruby takes a step or two out of her corner, but goes no further, emotionlessly staring straight through Carter despite her taunting. Ruby then rolls her eyes and starts turning away, which enrages Cassidy and causes her to suddenly charge in. Scarlet yells out in warning to her partner, but Amarant seems to have been using her own bait as she turns and ducks a clothesline from Carter. Cassidy ends up in the corner and turns around into a barrage of forearm strikes from Ruby to keep her there. She grabs Carter by the wrist and irish whips her across the ring, causing her to crash chest-first into the turnbuckles and stumble back right into a belly-to-back suplex! She starts pulling Carter up by the hair but is distracted when Ace whistles out to her from the floor and starts yelling at her about “damaging the merchandise” as he tries to imply Cassidy’s chest holds more value than Ruby’s. This causes Scarlet to start moving over to that side of the ring, yelling out her “counterpoints” to Ace’s claims while motioning to her own chest. The referee is distracted by this as he warns the two not to start anything with each other, which allows Cassidy to take advantage of Ruby’s distraction with an eye rake that’s followed up by a nasty-looking DDT!

Sharper: “Ruby outsmarted Cassidy to start this match off, but Cassidy’s taking advantage of some prodding from Ace to quickly turn things around.”

Knots: “Even if Ruby could care less about someone taking shots at her own looks, no matter how good they may be, you know that’s going to rattle Scarlet while she’s out here.”

Scarlet heads back to Ruby’s corner in annoyance after realizing what happened while Ace just grins and applauds. Carter applies a side headlock to try and grind down Amarant, even grabbing some of her hair and trying to pull back on it despite the referee’s warnings. Ruby slowly starts getting back to her feet and manages to land a few elbows to Cassidy’s gut to loosen her grip, but when she gets free and tries to run off the ropes Carter takes advantage of Ruby’s incredibly long hair by grabbing it and using it to yank her to the mat like a dog reaching the end of its chain. She hangs onto it and lands a few stomps to Ruby’s face until she’s forced to let go, causing her to shoot a very annoyed glance at the referee. She grabs Ruby and hauls her over to the nearest corner before smashing her face off the padding. As Ruby stumbles back, Cassidy leaps onto the second turnbuckle and twists back into a springboard crossbody!

Amarant kicks out! Carter shoots the referee a frustrated look before trying to apply a sleeper hold.

Sharper: “It seems like Cassidy just wants to be done with this match as quickly as possible and Ruby doesn’t plan on playing along.”

Knots: “We’re in Mexico City, Adam. Cassidy and Ace probably just want to wrap this up and go out to celebrate all night long!”

Cassidy slowly pulls Ruby to her feet as she keeps trying to cinch in the sleeper, but Ruby’s managed to get one arm in the way to keep her oxygen from being cut off. Cassidy finally gives up on this and clubs her across the back before running off the ropes, only for Amarant to turn and catch her with an STO! The fans boo a bit as Ruby takes a moment to run a hand through her hair before running off the ropes herself, catching a rising Carter with a sliding forearm smash. She hauls Cassidy back up to her feet and starts hooking her for a suplex, but Carter manages to spin out of it and clocks her with a right hand! Cassidy grabs Ruby by the arm and starts trying to wrestle her down to the mat, but Ruby manages to plant her feet and reverses the position, trying to turn it into a fairly early Ruby Dreams! Cassidy manages to slip free and quickly slides out of the ring, where Ace gets in the way to prevent Amarant from following up while Carter vents her frustrations out on the floor.

Knots: “Something tells me this isn’t how Cassidy saw this match going at all.”

Sharper: “Ruby’s managed to fight back into this match and Cassidy hasn’t- hang on a second, there’s no need for that!”

Sharper’s referring to the fact that Cassidy’s stormed over to the timekeeper’s area and thrown the poor guy from his seat before swiping his chair. With a big declaration of “Screw this and screw them!” she moves past Ace, who makes an obviously lazy attempt to stop her, and slides into the ring. The referee tries to get in the way, but she shoves him aside and quickly drives the chair into Ruby’s gut! The ref calls for the bell as the top of the chair is rammed into Ruby’s gut a second time before she drops to her hands and knees, but when she goes to slam it across her back Scarlet slides into the ring and yanks the chair out of her hands! Cassidy turns and gets a receipt for those shots when Scarlet drives the chair into her gut before she lays the chair on the mat, but whatever she has planned is cut off when Ace slides into the ring and blasts her with the One Eye’d Royal! He smirks as he stands over her before moving to check on Cassidy, but as the two talk Ruby has gotten up enough that she nails Cassidy from behind with a forearm to the lower back that shoves her into Ace a bit. Cassidy quickly turns around as Ruby gets back to her feet and the two start throwing hands. Ruby begins to get the upper hand in this exchange before Ace grabs her from behind, only for his eyes to widen as he finds himself the victim of a low blow from Scarlet!

Knots: “That’s one way to slow Ace’s fun down!”

Sharper: “Things are breaking down here between these two teams. Clearly, Cassidy could care less at this point that she’s gotten herself disqualified.”

Ace drops to his knees as Scarlet can’t resist using the position to get a feel, only for Cassidy to kick her right in the face! She turns and Ruby runs right through her with a clothesline before grabbing her arm and trying to lock in a fujiwara armbar. Once she seems like she’s going to get it locked in, Ace blasts her with a forearm to the face as he slowly gets up and tries to keep his footing, clearly still in immense pain from the low blow. He tries to fight through it as he grabs Scarlet, but whatever he’s hoping to do is cut off when Alexander Crowe suddenly hits the ring and levels him from behind! The boos get noticeably louder as Crowe lands several clubbing blows across Ace’s back, but Ace manages to shove him off. He winces in pain as his hands move back down to his groin, but he manages to catch Crowe trying to move back in with a back elbow to make him back off, only to be flattened moments later as the Red Empire bounce off the ropes and take him out with the Crowning Moment! The three of them stand tall for a moment before Scarlet whispers something in Ruby’s ear, which causes her to roll her eyes but still leads to her trying to pull Ace up into the Ruby Dreams, but this plan is aborted when Cassidy stirs and grabs the chair from earlier, and Crowe and the Red Empire bail from the ring as she wildly swings it without regard to any fines for her actions had she connected!

Sharper: “Alexander Crowe couldn’t resist getting one more shot in on Ace, and while Cassidy may have scared them off with that chair the damage has clearly been done!”

Knots: “Ruby’s technically got the win and the Red Empire got one up on a former World Champion and a former number one contender to that title. Considering we know Scarlet and Ruby still stand by Katya, I can’t help but wonder if Crowe’s helping them just because of that or because he sees Scarlet and Ruby as a new incarnation or extension of Dark Fantasy.”

Sharper: “I don’t know about that last one, but considering his allegiance to Syren and Ravyn and once again getting involved in Ace and Cassidy’s business, I can promise you that this is far from over.”

Cassidy checks on Ace, the camera catching that she’s more specifically concerned about his lower regions for whatever she’s hoping to do after the show as Crowe and the Red Empire back up the ramp, Scarlet even raising Ruby’s arm in victory with one hand while caressing her chest with the other almost as a final shot for Ace’s remarks earlier during the match, though Ruby is barely fazed by any of this as she just subtly smirks.

Breakdown returns as Abigail sits in the corner, holding a Mexican newspaper. She flips through it and we then see Kim Williams walking over to Abigail. Kim then knocks on the newspaper. Abigail slides it down.

Kim: “HI!”

Abigail: “Hello Kimberly.”

Kim: “Are you hunting wabbits!”

Abigail: “Depends on the wabbit.”

Kim: “A rascally one?”

Abigail: “Ravyn?”

Kim: “Bingo! And that was not his name-o. It was actually Carl.”

Abigail: “Let me guess. You want to use her to send a message to Katya.”

Kim leans back, clutching her hands behind her and rocking on her tip-toes.

Kim: “MAAAAYBE!”

Abigail: “Well she is in a locker room a few yards that way.”

Kim: “Great…now…I need your clothes.”

Abigail looks up at Kim.

Kim: “Well I mean we’re on camera. So I want to make this as ridiculous as possible and make Ravyn think that I’m just trying to outsmart her when she’s watching all of this.”

Abigail: “So you’re going to go through it anyway?”

Kim: “Why not? Marie’s not here to stop me!”

Abigail: “That works.”

Abigail puts the newspaper down.

Abigail: “Step into my office.”

She smiles and opens the door next to her. Kim looks in.

Kim: “Oooo…brooms!”

They walk in as we cut waay.

Sharper: “Oh no.”

Knots: “This just got interesting!”

Kellen Jeffries vs. Marie Jones

SCW Television Championship

"The Authority Song" by John Mellencamp hits the speakers and Kellen Jeffries comes out from the back and heads to the ring.

Phillips: “Making his way to the ring, the challenger for the SCW Television Championship.... from New York City, he is Kellen Jeffries!”

As Kellen makes his way down the ramp, the crowd applauds and he gives some people in the front row a smile as he passes by. Getting to the ring, he goes up the steps, steps through the ropes, and raises one arm overhead before going to his corner.

Sharper: “Kellen Jeffries with an opportunity tonight to hold gold here in SCW. Trios contract winner, veteran of the sport. This should be a good challenge for champion Marie Jones.”

Knots: “Marie is probably just glad she isn't dealing with Red Empire again.”

“You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and its all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And its comin' over you like its all a big mistake"

Phillips: “And his opponent, from Boston, Massachusetts... she is the current SCW Television Champion....”

"Holding my breathe, won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold"

Phillips: ..."The Phoenix" Marie Jones!”

A spotlight shines down at the top of the entrance ramp. Pyro goes off. Then Marie Annabelle Jones steps through the curtain, wearing her ring gear and her signature black leather jacket. The Tron shows images of her striking at her opponents with her finishing and signature moves as the lyrics of "Haunted" by Taylor Swift begin to flow through the arena. Marie begins to make her way down towards the ring to loud cheering from the fans. Marie hops up onto the ring apron. She strikes a sultry and sexy pose for the audience. Marie turns and leaps over the top rope and into the ring. She then hops up onto the second turnbuckle of the nearby corner and holds her arms up high into the air, getting a reaction from the crowd. The official takes the belt from her and holds it up over his head before handing it off to the timekeeper.

Knots: “Marie has been doing well for herself since winning that title, but she has a tough challenge here tonight.”

Sharper: “Indeed she does, some SCW fans may not be familiar with Kellen, but the ones who are know that he isn't to be taken lightly. Bit of a storied past, but he's trying to put that behind him.”

The bell rings. The two give each other a nod then meet in the center of the ring, entering a collar and elbow lock up. Kellen transitions to a side headlock. Marie fights to escape, but Kellen quickly lets her go before grabbing an arm and sending her across the ring. Marie hits the ropes and comes back and Kellen nails her with a front kick. Marie leans over holding her stomach. Kellen grabs her head but Marie shoves him off before he can do anything. Marie backs away. Kellen regains his footing and grabs Marie, then lifts her up and plants her right back down with a bodyslam. He goes for an early cover.

1!

Marie kicks out. Both get up, and Marie shakes her head.

Sharper: “Gonna take much more than that to hold the Phoenix down.”

Knots: “Kellen knows that, he's being smart, trying to wear her down, make her expend energy kicking out.”

Marie waves at Kellen to bring it. He runs at her, and Marie takes him down with an arm drag. He rolls through and turns around. Marie hits a dropkick, knocking him flat. She makes a cover.

1!

Kellen gets his shoulder up. Marie gets up and springs off the second rope with a moonsault.

Sharper: “Divine Impact!”

Knots: “And another cover...”

1!

Kellen kicks out. Marie gets up, running her hand through her hair. Kellen starts to get up, and Marie backs up to let him. They stare at each other across the ring. The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Looks like Marie thought she could end this early. This crowd is enjoying the contest so far though.”

Knots: “No one has really gained the upperhand yet.”

Kellen suddenly runs at Marie and swings with a discus punch. Marie ducks though, and Kellen spins through. Marie nails him with an uppercut. He staggers back. She lands another one, then drops him with a DDT. Instead of making a cover though Marie goes to the corner and hops up to the second rope facing the ring Kellen gets to his feet, and Marie leaps, dropping him with a blockbuster. Marie then makes a cover.

Kellen kicks out. Marie rolls off, as Kellen sits up. Marie gets to her feet and turns. She reaches down to pull Kellen up, but he grabs her arm and pulls, dropping her to the mat face first awkwardly. The crowd oohs. Kellen then gets up and looks down as Marie gets to her hands and knees. Kellen plants his knee into her temple. Marie goes down, holding her head. Kellen rolls her over and makes a cover.

1!

2!

Marie gets her shoulder up. The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “That was a pretty stiff knee to the head there, Kellen was just a second away from being the new champion.”

Knots: “Marie may have kicked out from pure instinct there.”

Kellen pulls Marie up and spins her into the corner. He follows looking to clothesline her into the turnbuckles, but Marie gets her foot up, catching him in the sternum. Kellen backs away, holding his chest. Marie shakes her head, still feeling the effects of the knee strike. She then gets up on the second rope and drills Kellen with a missile dropkick. She rolls through, then crawls back and makes a cover.

1!

Kellen kicks out. The crowd roars. Marie gets up, and drags Kellen closer to the corner. She then gets up on the ropes again. Kellen stirs as Marie plants her feet. She looks ready to jump but Kellen sees her and rolls away. Marie shakes her head and hops down. Kellen starts to get up, Marie goes over and pulls him up, then sends him into the ropes. On the rebound she hits a Pele kick. Kellen falls back into the ropes. Marie gets up and as Kellen gains his balance and steps towards her, Marie grabs him and plants him with Ava Maria!

Sharper: “Wow! That came from thin air!”

Knots: “Good night, Kellen!”

Marie makes the cover.

1!

3!

The bell rings. Marie gets up, smiling, as the crowd cheers.

Phillips: “Your winner and STILL SCW Television Champion.... Marie Jones!”

The official hands Marie the belt and raises her arm. She holds the belt overhead smiling. Kellen starts to stir and Marie exits the ring as we cut away.

Backstage, we see Kim Williams walking down the hallway, dressed as Sailor Moon, without the hair though, and starting to walk over to a locker room as we hear some commotion. Kim smiles.

Kim: “Violence?! Yaaaay!”

Kim runs to the room and runs in as we see Cassidy Carter and Ace Marshall being held back by officials as Ravyn Taylor just smirks.

Cassidy: “I’ve wanted to knock you around for a while. Now I got excuses!”

Ace: “Trust me. She’s been sharpening her Louboutins to get you!”

Ravyn: “An unexpected surprise.”

Ravyn smirks as Kim looks in.

Kim: “I want in!”

Kim runs in and officials stop her. Ravyn backs up to the corner as we see Alexander Crowe also in the room, mocking them. Ace finally starts to pull Cassidy back, but Cassidy sneaks free and gets forward as the crowd roars.

Kim: “You suck! You smell! You don’t wash your armpits.”

Ravyn: “Clever…”

Sharper: “This is insanity here. Ace and Cassidy going after Ravyn!”

Knots: “After the role of Crowe, why not?!”

Sharper: “And Kim wanted to get to her too. All because of the link to Katya? And Ravyn is just enjoying this all.”

Knots: “Officials don’t want another attack. But come on. Let them go. Let’s see Ravyn think her way out of this!”

Abigail then walks over to the door and peers in, wearing Kim’s clothes…for some reason. She smirks.

Abigail: “Next week, Ravyn?!”

Ravyn smirks as the scene fades out.

Breakdown returns and opens up in the arena to see Sasha walking down the rampway. The crowd cheers seeing her.

Sharper: “Looks like we may get some answers.”

Knots: “About what though? Xander?”

Sharper: “Maybe.”

She heads to the ring and walks over to the ring. She walks up the steel steps and then along the apron before stepping into the ring. She looks at the crowd, looking around before going over to the corner and extending her arm for Phillips to hand her a microphone. She takes it and walks back to the middle of the ring. She looks around.

Sasha: “Thank you for the warm reception.”

Sasha pauses again.

Sasha: “Last week on this program, I think it’s clear that Xander Valentine intended to do what he did not just at Retribution, but also last week on this program when he kicked my father in the face.”

Sasha pauses for a moment.

Sasha: “First off, thank you for those who have reached out to my father. But he is fine. The question now comes down to what’s next.”

Sasha looks down for a moment.

Sasha: “I’ll admit, I asked my father his thoughts. After the show last week when he had calmed down himself. He stressed the same thing he said on air…it’s my call.”

We cut backstage to see Selena Frost seated in the locker room watching. Kennedy Street and Trinity Street watch with her as Regan is pulling her kneepads up in the corner. We cut to another part of the backstage area to see Sam Raine, Kellen Jeffries and a few others watching.

Sasha: “And I’ve thought about it. And Dean Black who spoke to me backstage, was a righthand man for my father for many years, he made it clear – it’s my chance to put my stamp on how I’ll run things.”

Sasha nods. We cut to see Dean Black watching.

Sasha: “Well, Xander, I don’t know where you are. You’re certainly not here and that’s a good thing. And with so many others looking to get their hands on you because they respect what my father represented for this business and for them, well, I know full well that right now, many returning to the arena at Breakdown next week is a poor choice.”

Sasha pauses as the crowd boos.

Sasha: “But it’s a poor choice I’m going to make. You are under contract with SCW. You wanted to go after my father, you can live with the consequences of it. Next week, you’ll have some airtime. You can say what you want to say. But there are a lot of people that want to get their hands on you. I’ll focus on them first. But you, Xander, you’ll need to make sure you’re ready for what you’ve done to yourself. Because as far as I’m concerned, you just executed yourself.”

Sasha brings the microphone down. She places it down on the mat before turning to the ropes. She steps through the ropes and down to the floor. She then starts to make her way to the back.

Sharper: “Looks like she may take a page out of her father.”

Knots: “In some way, but almost like she is letting him take whatever heat may come! Next week could be nuts!”

Sharper: “And it answers one question to say the least!”

Sasha heads to the back as the camera follows her. The crowd cheers her as the scene cuts out.

“The Old Me” by Memphis May Fire plays as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Regan Street vs. Giovanni Aries. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Main event time. This is going to be a war. Giovanni Aries faces the Hellcat, Regan Street, in our main event! Next!”

The scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as we see Spirit Dansby outside of the trainer’s office as Syren steps out of the room. She storms right past Spirit. CHBK follows.

Spirit: “Syren! CHBK!”

They keep walking and Spirit stops and turns back. She heads to the Trainer who looks at her.

Spirit: “Any update?”

Trainer: “Just going to send the report to Sasha. Nothing we can find in a preliminary. X-rays scanned and faxed. The rest is up to them.”

The crowd roars.

Spirit: “That would explain why Syren was unhappy. Back to the ring.”

Sharper: “It would and well, looks like the cards are on the table!”

Knots: “Ravyn having some fun. Syren not. But then again, was that by design. You have to wonder at all times with them!”

Regan Street vs. Giovanni Aries

The arena goes dark. The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is seen with a roar. Pyro shoots out as “Who's Next” by Porcelain Black plays throughout the arena. Regan Street walks out in her cat suit and ensemble with her younger sister, Mikaela behind her. She stands at the entrance way looking out into the crowd as they cheer.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and is for TV time remaining and is your main event of the evening. First, accompanied by Mikaela Street, she is from Santa Monica, California, the SCW Adrenaline Champion, she is the Hellcat, Regan Street!”

Regan turns to Mikaela. They both nod before she looks around at the crowd, before walking to the ring determined for her next match and starts to make her way down to the ring followed by Mikaela. Regan Street gets to the apron and hops up to the ring; she flips over the ropes back first to some cheers from the fans, Mikaela slides after her. Once inside the ring Regan goes to the corner, climbing it and posing in her own confident way as Mikaela claps before dropping down and walking to the middle of the ring where she takes off her entrance attire and nods to her sister, handing her the gear and she makes her way to the corner while the Hellcat stands waiting to start her fight. Regan then cart wheels and ruffles her hair before starting to pace, awaiting the arrival of Giovanni Aries.

Sharper: “We’ve already seen Giovanni Aries get involved with Damian angel early, trying to deal with Glory Braddock and Konrad Raab. We’ve seen Regan Street with Kennedy and Trinity Street, trying to keep everyone level after Chris Cannon and Sienna Swann’s actions to open breakdown.”

Knots: “Yeah. Regan level. Think about that!”

Sharper: “But this could be exactly what Regan needs. Someone to go after. Someone like Giovanni Aries. We saw her step up to help Selena Frost at Tabula Rasa and after last week and tonight, Regan Street wants a fight.”

Knots: “Let’s not forget she was one of the first people to go after Xander Valentine last week. So much going on here. And let’s not forget that Giovanni Aries and Damian Angel have both claimed that maybe Xander has been influenced by the Wonderland!”

Sharper: “And Damian Angel and Xander Valentine have history. Both part of the New Blood Rebellion nearly a decade ago.”

"Mad Hatter" by Melanie Martinez begins to play as Giovanni Aries steps out from behind the curtain as Sam his manager is in tow. Giovanni Aries has on a grey wolf pelt fur jacket on while wearing Oracle sunglasses. Giovanni Aries takes a few steps and then sits down Indian style in the middle of stage. He sits there and looks around the arena and begins to laugh hysterically before Sam walks over and pulls out a cigarette and lighter out of her cleavage and hands it to Giovanni Aries. He lights the cigarette and takes a long deep drag before slowly standing up and walking to the ring. While walking to the ring he takes a drag and blows it in ringside fans face as begins to laugh hysterically again. Giovanni Aries reaches ring side and looks out to the crowd and yells

"FEEL THE EMBRACE OF THE WONDERLAND!!!"

Phillips: “Her opponent, accompanied by Sam and representing the Wonderland, from-

He laughs hysterically before walking up the steps to the ring apron. Regan then runs over and grabs him by the hair and pulls him along the apron. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “And Regan isn’t going to even bother waiting!”

Knots: “She wants a fight. She’s taking it to Giovanni and why the hell not!”

Regan tries to pull him in, but Giovanni rolls into the ring. He drops his cigarette. He gets up and Regan nails him with a hard right. Giovanni stumbles back to the ropes. Regan then runs at him and kicks him in the ribs. She then grabs him, but Giovanni pulls on her hair. Regan grimaces and turns and goes to nail him, but Giovanni then palm strikes her in the face. He shoves her back before taking off his pelt. The crowd roars as Regan gets up. She steps forward and the official stops her before Regan paces. Giovanni steps forward, and the official turns to him, but Regan steps forward. The official ducks and backs up, calling for the bell to start the match. It starts as Regan nails Giovanni with a hard right and then another and another. Giovanni falls to the corner.

Sharper: “Senior official Aaron Demitra trying to get in between them, but Regan and Giovanni are happy to fight!”

Knots: “And Regan getting the win on that early, knocking him back into the corner!”

Giovanni covers up as Regan nails him a couple of times before Giovanni lunges with a knee to the ribs. Regan falls back. Giovanni then grabs her and just muscles her up with a hip toss, sending her up and over the top rope. Regan hits the apron and rolls to the floor. (1) Regan winces and starts to get up and Giovanni cackles before running across the ring. Regan turns and Giovanni hits a baseball slide. (2) Regan falls back and into the announce table. She falls over. (3) Giovanni rolls to the floor and then gets up. Regan fights up to her feet but Giovanni nails her with a hard chop to the throat. (1) Regan falls to the announce table and Giovanni then grabs her by the hair and spins her around and throws her hard into the side of the table. (2) The referee reprimand him and Giovanni ignores him as he walks over to Mikaela.

Giovanni: “Do you not wish to be something? More than just your sister’s keeper?”

Giovanni looks back at Regan as she starts to get up. (3)

Giovanni: “You could be something in the Wonderland, Mikaela! I’ve freed James! I’ve freed Konrad! Now you?”

Mikaela just shakes her head no.

Mikaela: “Screw off weirdo!”

Giovanni: “Quick judgment. Just as rash and ignorant as your sister-“

Regan then runs up behind Giovanni and knocks him down. (4) She stomps him in the back and then again and again. Regan grabs him and pulls him up. (5) She runs him into the apron. Giovanni pops back and Regan grabs him and rolls him into the ring.

Sharper: “Giovanni trying to get to Mikaela and Regan incensed by it!”

Knots: “You hear him? Freeing James? Freeing Konrad? Yeah, that’s free. Look at the goofy mask! That’s because of James!”

Sharper: “Breaking his nose last week in brutal fashion!”

Regan turns and looks at Giovanni as he gets up and nails him with a hard right, right to the nose!

Knots: “And right to the nose! There we go!”

Giovanni falls back and Regan mounts him and nails him with a hard right and then another and another and another before getting up. She pushes him down and goes for a leg drop. She hits one. She gets up and goes for a second, but Giovanni blocks it and pushes up before turning and grabbing the leg. Regan rolls over and gets some distance and kicks at Giovanni but, Giovanni blocks it and then lifts her leg up and kicks her in the spine. Regan rolls over in pain as Giovanni falls back to the corner. He smirks through his mask as he steps forward. Regan starts to get up. Giovanni then runs at her and knees her in the ribs. He forces her down to the mat. She rolls over and Giovanni jumps up and hits a double stomp to the chest. Giovanni rolls over as the crowd ohs. Regan turns, coughing and Giovanni rolls her to her back and hooks the leg.

Regan gets her shoulder up.

Sharper: “Only a two count as Giovanni Aries just putting all of his weight to the ribs of Regan!”

Knots: “And I don’t care how angry the Hellcat is. How much she wants to fight. That screws you up!”

Regan turns and looks out as we see Selena Frost watching backstage with Kennedy Street and Trinity Street. She looks a bit concerned as we cut back to the ring and Giovanni grabs Regan and places her head between his legs. He hoists her up and falls back with an alleyoop. The crowd ohs as Regan rolls over to her back. Giovanni gets up and smirks before pulling her up again. He then whips her into the corner. Giovanni runs after and clotheslines her in the corner. He pulls her out and throws her down. He goes for the pin.

Regan gets her shoulder up. Giovanni rolls off and sits up and looks at the official. He then gets up and turns to Aaron Demitra.

Regan turns and Giovanni nails her with a throat thrust. Regan falls to the ropes. Giovanni then grabs her and whips her across the ring. She bounces off and Giovanni scoops her up, but Regan slides behind him. Giovanni turns and Regan grabs his head and hits the Haywire!

Sharper: “Love Tap! Right to the face! Right to the injured nose!”

Knots: “And Giovanni is just splayed out on that mat. Like that word? Splayed. Already smarter than Chris Cannon and Giovanni Aries!”

Regan turns and crawls over to Giovanni Aries and hooks the leg.

Giovanni kicks out. Regan rolls over. She looks up and starts to get up. Regan turns and walks over to Giovanni. She pulls him up, but Giovanni suddenly grabs her and hits a jawbreaker and then grabs her tights and pulls her forward and Regan goes through the ropes to the floor. Regan starts to get up and Giovanni suddenly springboards to the top and dives forward, attempting a double stomp, half landing on Regan, before both crash into the announce table. Giovanni rolls over as Regan falls back. (1) Both remain down. (2) The referee continues to count as Regan rolls over. (3) The crowd roars as Regan grabs at the table as we then see Xander Valentine pull himself over the barricade. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “What the hell?! That’s Xander Valentine! He is here!”

Knots: “Well he wasn’t here in the building, but looks like he was in the crowd! Security!”

Demitra drops down and Xander forearms him down before grabbing Giovanni and throwing him out of the way. Regan gets up and Xander boots her in the face. The crowd ohs and Regan hits the ground. She turns and Xander grabs her and pulls her up before spinning her into the ringpost. Regan rolls off and turns as we then see Selena Frost running down from the back. Xander just smirks as he steps over the barricade and calmly walks off on the other side. He heads through the crowd as Selena Frost runs around the ring.

Sharper: “Xander Valentine attacking Regan Street!”

Knots: “She wanted to fight him last week, but I guess Xander didn’t want a fight. He wanted to just knock her down!”

Sharper: “And here come Selena! My God…ruining this war between Regan and Giovanni. But Xander Valentine making his presence felt and next week, Sasha said he’d face the consequences…he just lit a fire under the Hellcat!”

Selena runs down and head around before turning and checking on Regan. Giovanni slowly stirs and chuckles as he looks over and smiles. The camera catches this as Regan stirs and looks out with Mikaela helping her too and Xander heads through the crowd as the scene fades to black…
