“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

 

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

 

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

 

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

 


 

MAIN SHOW:

 

 

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

 

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

 

We see Marina Trent spewing the Nocturnal Mist into Regan Street’s eyes before the shot freezes and flies at the screen. A shot of Shilo Valiant hitting the E-Factor on Shawn Winters is shown before freezing and flying at the screen. A quick shot of David Helms holding the SCW Adrenaline Championship over his head, before switching to a shot of Jason Wilde and Joss Morrison standing together, followed by a shot of Thorn hitting the Griever’s Bane on someone is shown, followed by a shot of CHBK standing in a suit in the ring, all freezing in mid-motion and flying at the screen.

 

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

 

Shots of Lucas Knight and Syren looking at each other, standing across the ring from each other, followed by showing Collin Cole nailing David Helms with the Cole Killer, and followed by a shot of Kelcey Wallace hitting the Perfect Fate on Gigi Steward are all shown before freezing and flying past the screen. A shot of Tatum McGraw yelling at someone is shown before flying past the screen.

 

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

 

Several shots of various SCW competitors, new and old, including Gable Winchester, Shaun Cruze, Thorn & David Helms, Blitzkrieg, Alex Desoubrais Jr., Regan Street, Marina Trent, Harmony Fisher, Blake Mason, The Cashmere Mafia and others all fly past the screen before ending with the SCW Breakdown logo flying into the screen.    


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

 

Sharper: “Welcome everyone to another edition of SCW Breakdown. Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots here at ringside and tonight, a couple of huge matches to say the least.”

 

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen and we see a shot of Jake Starr & Brittany Lohan vs. David Helms & Tommy Valentine.

 

Knots: “Oh yeah. After nearly screwing up that huge cage match main event on Riding the Lightning Night Two, Jake Starr and Brittany Lohan are going to find out you don’t screw with them. They face Next Level tonight.”

 

Sharper: “But that’s not all. The new SCW World Championship will be in action later tonight!”

 

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen again and we see a shot of Josh Hudson vs. Syren.

 

Knots: “And Syren’s going to face a big former World Champion, Josh Hudson, one on one. I’m going to love watching Syren again keep establishing herself as THE best World Champion of all time!”

 

Sharper: “Well we’ll see how she does against Josh Hudson, who has to be very driven at what happened at Riding the Lightning: Night One. More on that later, but so much going on tonight, with two huge main events.”


‘I am done pretending’

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

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

‘After the lights go out on you
After your worthless life is through
I will remember how you scream
I can't afford to care
I can't afford to care’

With clenched fists, gritted teeth, and glaring icy eyes, Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically. Mary follows suit, walking with Brittany side by side the entire time. 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.

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan has her World Championship shot at Taking Hold of the Flame. She was at ringside on Night Two.”

 

Knots: “And significantly got involved. Throwing chairs into the cage.”

 

Sharper: “And let’s not forget that the show went off the air with Brittany Lohan attacking Syren with her own World Championship shot, sending a clear message of what may await!”

I am suffocating
You have failed to pull me in
I will drag you down again
Life is unrelenting
Feeding lies into my head
I will feed the lies you live

Now you want to take me down
As if I even care
I am the monster in your head
And I thought you'd learn by now
It seems you haven't yet
I am the venom in your skin
And now your life
Is broken

As she nears the squared circle, Lohan pulls herself up onto the apron. Mary walks up the steel steps and enters the ring as Lohan enters the ring. She then walks around and looks out at the crowd before turning and demanding a microphone. She takes one and walks back to the middle of the ring. Mary just stands behind her as she looks out to the crowd.

 

Lohan: “Tick…..tick…..tick….”

 

Lohan smirks.

 

Lohan: “It’s only a matter of time before you and I now meet up in that ring, at Taking Hold of the Flame, Syren. Did you enjoy my message to you? See, Syren, you can complain. You can bitch. You can talk to everyone who cares that what I did was wrong, but the fact is, it was a warning…I can destroy you at my latest whim.”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Knots: “No!”

 

Lohan just smiles.

 

Lohan: “See, I have to admit that this all worked out a little bit too well. I mean, I could have faced my tag partner later tonight, Jake Starr. And while it would have been fun to take Jake Starr to the limit a defeat a sure-fire Hall of Famer for the World Championship…just not quite my cup of tea.”

 

Lohan pauses again and smirks.

 

Lohan: “I could’ve faced Regan Street…the Hellcat…formerly my Hellcat-“

 

The crowd roars.

 

Lohan: “A former good friend. Well Regan, as great as it would have been to stand across the ring from you, facing another Belle…and showing Rachel Foxx that she was not the end all or be all…but Regan…you’re just not the target of my anger right now. See, that’s you Syren. Because after months of hearing you complain and hearing you demand your need to be respected…after having to put up with you as my Tag Team partner in the Trios Tournament…I cannot think of a better person to win my first World Championship from and book my first class ticket to Rise to Greatness than you Syren. I could say something clichéd about how this coming full circle, but the fact is that it has nothing to do with that. It has everything to do with me doing a favour to everyone and that is shutting you up.”

 

Lohan leans against the ropes and looks at the camera.

 

Lohan: “See Syren, the fact is that you may think you’re the greatest women’s wrestler in the world, but you really just need that acceptance. You really just need people to love you and to watch you. So I’m going to give you the biggest stage that I am willing to let you have…that is Taking Hold of the Flame. Because I know that you would love nothing else than to go into Rise to Greatness as World Champion, I am going to take that dream and crush it in front of the world. But don’t worry…I’ll let you get oh so close. To Taking Hold of the Flame…and then you’ll be forced to take a backseat and watch as I dominate whomever the sorry son of a bitch is that wins the Taking Hold of the Flame battle royal!-“

 

“Can’t Touch It” starts to play and the crowd roars before starting to boo. Regan Street walks out from the back and starts to make his way to the ring. The crowd roars as Lohan just smirks and Regan walks down to the ring.

 

Knots: “Oh boy! She’s done pissed off Regan!”

 

Sharper: “Regan Street has been very vocal on twitter about his dislike of Lohan’s involvement.”

 

Knots: “Well she threw chairs in the ring! She directly changed the match. Not saying Syren wouldn’t have won. Not saying Regan couldn’t have run, but!”

 

Regan slides into the ring and gets up and quickly goes right up to Lohan. She then grabs the microphone and Regan turns and quickly chirps at Mary who just laughs a bit before turning to Lohan.

 

Regan: “You want to come out here and talk about how who you WANTED to face and how this has worked out. Let me tell you something. I am not be the target of your anger, but you’re sure as hell the target of mine. You want to throw chairs into the ring and try to get the match you want, you should have been the first person to know how stupid of an idea that is!”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Regan: “And now with all of your BS with the Trios Tournament, you want your free ride to Rise to Greatness. That doesn’t fly with me. So I’m going to make this simple-“

 

Lohan then grabs Regan by the throat and smirks. Regan just shoves her back and Lohan then lifts her up before we hear the sound of Jake Starr as he walks out from the back.

 

Starr: “Oh my….Regan…you’re so young, yet so stupid sometimes…”

 

Regan shoves back against Lohan and Lohan throws her down and Mary then steps forward as Regan slowly gets up, glaring at both.

 

Starr: “See, Regan, you can have your little problems with Lohan, but the fact is, that right now, she’s got a little bit of a goal. And she’s got her shot. She doesn’t owe anything to you. That was what you could’ve had a few months ago with whatever you guys did in private. But Regan, if you’re going to talk about title shots, I think you and I need to have another talk because the fact is if Lohan is going to make it so after Taking Hold of the Flame, if she wins, those rematches you and I have are going to go a bit the way of a do-do bird. So I’m going to make this simple…you can fight with Lohan, I’m going to turn my attention to Syren.”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Starr: “See, Syren, you want to be the greatest ever…the prove it. I know you want to face me and we can end this once and for all. I’ll even give you your cage match. So Syren, the clock’s ticking. You want to show you’re better than me, then let’s do it. Until then, I’m going to show your boyfriend that he’s going to be Lohan’s and my bitch later tonight. That is unless Lohan wants to make Regan her’s right now too!”

 

Lohan just smirks. Regan just looks at her and Starr smirks as “Uprising” starts to play.

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan made her message to Syren. Starr however has one too.”

 

Knots: “And Regan is going right after Brittany!”

 

Sharper: “The fact is, Starr’s right. Syren wanted to face Starr at Night Two. He could get his rematch thanks to that desire right there…that and he technically may be owed one.”

 

Knots: “Regan too!”

 

Sharper: “Oh boy…this is getting interesting. The SCW World Championship situation is far from solved at the moment and we’re just getting started here on Breakdown!”

 

Starr starts to back up to the back as Regan clearly is considering making another go at Lohan, but stops before sliding to the floor. She lets out a frustrated yell before backing away and yelling at Lohan. Lohan smirks as Mary does as well.


“Rescue Me” starts to play and the crowd roars as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a shot of Josh Hudson vs. Syren.

 

Sharper: “Well Jake Starr has made a challenge to Syren and tensions are running high early, but later tonight, we’ll see a big tag match between Next Level, Brittany Lohan and Jake Starr.”

 

Knots: “But our new World Champion will be in action against Josh Hudson. That’s our main event. Oh yeah, it’s going to be a fun one.”

 

Sharper: “Breakdown returns after this.”

 

The scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


The scene opens up in the locker room of Syren, Dark Fantasy, Next Level and also Regan Street to see Syren just shaking her head as she sits back on the couch in the room, next to David Helms as Ravyn Taylor just scoffs and Tommy Valentine can be seen starting to get his gear out.

 

Ravyn: “Amazing that the fool is immediately back to his old ways.”

 

Helms: “Well you do have a title rematch potentially.”

 

Ravyn: “I do.”

 

Helms: “And?”

 

Ravyn: “Still doesn’t mean I can’t criticize Starr for failing to realize when his time has passed.”

 

Syren: “Oh totally…and I’m not worried at all.”

 

Tommy: “Good!”

 

Tommy yells out as Helms smirks.

 

Syren: “He wants his rematch. I’m sure as hell not giving him one unless I’m forced to. He made it clear that he wasn’t going to give me a rematch even though his wife had to win it for him. And I said, when I when, he’s not getting any damn rematch and I’m going to shove this…”

 

Syren then grabs the World Championship from the table in front of her.

 

Syren: “…shove this in his face. So he can whine all he wants.”

 

Helms: “And Regan?”

 

Syren just pauses for a minute, putting the title down.

 

Syren: “She can talk to me about it.”

 

Syren then leans back as we cut back to ringside.

 

Sharper: “That’s definitive.”

 

Knots: “No dice for Starr!”

 

Sharper: “Well also interesting is that Ravyn Taylor did point out her rematch and also CHBK was not there.”

 

Knots: “Oh yeah, you’re probably thinking something nefarious.”

 

Sharper: “Given how they like to act, even just there with Syren’s reaction, even to Regan and then Ravyn’s comments…I think I’m right to think they’re all thinking something.”


Shaun Cruze vs. Simon Lyman

 

The house lights dim as the opening riffs to "Hero" by Skillet begin to scream throughout the arena.

On the Jumbotron in the background the words flash in gold, "The Hero That You Need" followed by a video of "Simply Rational" Simon Lyman assaulting various opponents inside of the ring.

As the lyrics begin, Simon walks out on stage silently, with his head down, almost seemingly unaware of the crowd reaction whether positive or negative at that moment.

Once the refrain hits for the first time Simon stands with with legs spread apart and arms outstretched overhead, gold pyro showers down from the rafters, engulfing the entire length of the stage right behind him.

When the refrain ends the house lights rise and Simon walks the aisle confidently. If being cheered he slaps hands with the fans, if being booed he will mock them.

While the fans continue to shower him with negativity, Simon arrives, handing his robe to an attendant, before making his way up the steps and into the ring.

Now in his corner we see a slight smile on Simon's face as he looks out into the crowd briefly, then asks for and receives a microphone from ring side

Sharper: We are supposed to having this man, Simon Lyman take on Shaun Cruze next fans, but it looks like we are go to hear from Mr “Simply Rational” first.

Knots: Well then we are in for a treat.

Sharper: Treat wasn’t exactly what I was thinking, but to each his own.

Knots: That’s because you wouldn’t know class if it punched you in the face.
Lyman brings the mic to his lips, smirking at the already hostile crowd.

Simon: Hell, if I didn’t know any better listening to all of you ingrates, I’d think I was about to whip John Elway’s ass tonight instead of Shaun Cruze’s.
Not pleased to hear local icon John Elway disparaged, the Denver crowd becomes even more hostile toward Lyman.

Simon: What, do you morons mean to tell me you don’t think I could whip Elway’s old, wrinkled up ass? Bring him out here, I’ll kick him in his damn horse face right now, so that he’s eating his molars for a snack tonight!
The crowd is near ready to explode it seems.

Sharper: Could someone shut this blowhard up? We are supposed to be having a wrestling match out here, not listening to his opinion of a local hero.

Knots: That’s the problem Sharper. Elway is the hero, they want, but Lyman is the hero that they need!

Sharper: Well the fans in the Pepsi Center are letting Simon know what they think of him right now, and that isn’t hero they are chanting.

Knots: That’s because they are just like you Sharper. They don’t know what is good for them.

Simon: Asshole? You people really need to stop looking in your pocket mirrors and start paying attention to me. By the end of this match, everyone will know why I am the hero that Den….

The crowd erupts into cheers as Lyman is interrupted by the sound of a heart beat reverberates around the arena, pulsing faster and faster until it stops, the noise intensifying as Avalon by Professor Green blasts from the PA system.

Yeah, Yeah...
Yeah, Yeah...

It's time to even it up
I guess a round table weren't equal enough
You can't contain me
With chains I'm free
and I run free
Any enemy is coming with me when I'm done

Several explosions and pyrotechnics accompany Shaun Cruze as he steps through the curtain, thrusting one arm up in the air and standing there in that pose, looking left and right at the masses before him. He nods his head appreciatively, before bringing his hand down and clapping the fans which heightens the noise and the atmosphere still further.

Whatever's asked to me I perform,
I rip through the rain into the eye of the storm,
Still carrying the flame, eye of the torch,
Failure comes at a price I can't afford,
Never been halfhearted I put my all in,
Forfeited all just to answer my calling,
Wearing the scars of the wars that I fought in,
Should have been heading for the stars but I'm falling,

I have your sword and cape,
If you need them I'll be swimming in the lake,
Oh baby don't look down, just take the crown.

Shaun makes his way down the ramp, high fiving and shaking the hands of several of the fans who are lucky enough to be seated this close. He never pauses however, and keeps walking purposely until he reaches the ring, and without hesitation slides under the bottom strand

We'll be kings forever, oh oh oh,
Holding on together, oh oh oh,
Feeling so much better oh oh oh,
When everything was wrong and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon.

I fought till I had no fight left,
Risked my death,
Walked with conviction in everyone of my steps,
My strengths water enough,
To wash away any of the stains on my rep,
Yeah, I fought off vultures,
Went against odds when I was short on soldiers,
I asked not for my burden to be lightened
but if I may have broader shoulders
so as I may carry the weight all the doubt I had in me has been allayed
so from now til the day that I'm carried away I will never walk around what stands in my way
fuck if they ain't letting off cos neither will I
When I die from the ashes an eagle will rise
long as my blade and my faith keep me alive
Fear is something that you won’t see in my eyes

Shaun stands, leaning on the ring ropes and looking out at the crowd, almost in disbelief at the level of noise which is all for him. He then walks over to a turn buckle and begins to climb it. He is about three quarters of the way up when an agitated Lyman attacks him with a hard forearm to the back, and the referee immediately calls for the bell, as Cruze’s music stops and the crowd is rife with animosity again.

Sharper: Oh yeah, that’s incredibly heroic, attack a man from behind before the opening bell.

Knots: He interrupted MY Hero when he was speaking! Shaun Cruze needs to be taught a lesson, and that is what Simon Lyman is going to do right now is teach him a lesson!

With his legs getting tangled up in the ropes, Cruze falls back leaving himself hung up in the corner in the tree of woe. The referee orders Lyman out of the corner so he can untangle Cruze and surprisingly Lyman complies backing off. The good will is short lived though, as Lyman only backs off long enough to get a running start before nails a baseball slide drop kick right into the face of a defenseless Cruze. Then Lyman stands pleased with himself and mocks the referee who is warning him about his conduct.

Cruze finally falls down free of the ropes in a heap. Noticing this, Lyman pulls him up and blisters him with a hard knife edge chop across the chest. The crowd starts jeer even angrier in Lyman’s direction, and he responds by chopping Cruze two more times across the chest, each one harder than the last.

Sharper: Simon really taking advantage of that sneak attack to start this match, and has come out with a vicious assault on Shaun.

Knots: How long are you going to keep whining about how this match started?

Sharper: What’s your problem with me telling the truth about how everything has gone down in this match so far?

Knots: You keep saying the same thing every time you open your mouth up, that’s my problem. Working with you is like sitting next to a woman nagging all night.

Lyman grabs the slumping Cruze and after smirking toward the crowd again, whips him hard across the ring into the opposite corner. Lyman tries to follow him in with a corner clothesline, but Cruze is ready for him this time, and using the ropes to elevate himself, gets both knees in Lyman’s face. Lyman stumbles back while Cruze steadies himself, briefly sitting on the second turn buckle before flying off and taking Lyman down with a flipping neckbreaker. As the crowd cheers, Cruze turn Lyman over quickly and goes for the first cover of the match.


1…

2…


Lyman kicks out just after 2, the disappointed moans of the crowd ensuing. He tries to stumble up to his feet afterward, but Cruze is right there with a drop toe hold and then latching on to a seated side head lock, taking control of the match for the first time. Lyman repeated kicks the mat in frustration, but each time he does, Cruze only grinds down on the head lock even hard to the delight of the fans.

Sharper: Shaun Cruze has finally taken control of this match and has wisely chosen to keep the high flying, risk taking Lyman on the mat after the near fall.

Knots: The referee should get in there and make Cruze break that hold. Clearly that has to be a choke.

Sharper: You have no way of knowing that is a choke so quit being ridiculous.

Knots: Of course I know. You see Lyman kicking the mat? Heroes don’t kick the mat unless they can’t breathe because they are being choked!
Concentrating on wrestling instead of throwing a tantrum for a moment, Lyman manages to turn Cruze over onto his shoulders while Cruze still holds the head lock firmly.


1….

2….


At 2, Cruze slides down to the other side of Lyman now, cranking on the headlock again, in a fine display of wrestling. Frustrated Lyman, kicks and screams on the canvas again, before rolling Cruze to his shoulders again


1…


The count doesn’t even get to two this time, before Cruze uses the momentum to roll back over again, still maintaining his firm grip on that headlock. This time however, Lyman is able to get a foot under the bottom rope, forcing the referee to order Cruze to break the hold, which he does without incident. Lyman tries up with the aid of those ropes, but is only able to get as far as his hand and knees when Cruze pounces on him, landing an elbow that leaves Lyman flat on his face. Pulling him out from the ropes and back to the middle of the ring, Cruze stomps on Lyman a couple of times in the back of the skull before dropping down himself and applying a front chancery. Lyman kicks and kicks again, being kept on the ground one more time.

Sharper: Shaun Cruze had a brilliant game plan coming into this match and he is working it to perfection ladies and gentlemen.

Knots: You better be he is, though I would argue it’s not exactly brilliant to choke someone out!

Sharper: The referee has been checking every step of the way here, and nothing illegal has been going on, just for the record fans. Don’t listen to the blowhard next to me, cheering for the blowhard in the ring.

Knots: I am not cheering for Shaun Cruze! Do not slander my good name Sharper! Shaun is not even half the wrestler his brother Orlando or Simon Lyman is.

Lyman continues to fight, and manages to pull himself back under the ropes again. This time though he is able to scoot his way back out of the ring for a breather before Cruze can get on the attack . Lyman does not get to rest for long however as Cruze takes flight with a suicide dive, launching himself like a missile through the ropes and onto Lyman on the outside. Unfortunately for Cruze the high risk attack costs him as well, with his right knee slamming into the ringside barrier. Cruze is down clutching at his knee, a fact not lost on Lyman who is recovering on the outside himself while the referee counts.


3…

4…

5…

6…


Sharper: Both men down, and if they don’t get back inside the ring soon we are going to have a result that won’t make anyone happy.

Knots: Except for Orlando Cruze maybe.

Sharper: Orlando is not in this match, so why don’t you quit bringing him up and concentrate on the men who are involved.

Knots: So noted, no more bringing up Orlando Cruze because he makes
Sharper feel almost as inadequate as he did on his Honeymoon, when he gave Mrs. Sharper the most boring 10 seconds of her life.


8…


Lyman rolls back in under the bottom rope, and confronts the referee breaking the count. Lyman is still in discussion with the referee when Cruze slides back into the ring behind him. Without turn around though, Lyman snaps off a superkick that hits Cruze flush on the jaw. Luckily for Cruze the force of Leading the Revolution sends him over the top and back out of the ring where Lyman cannot make a cover. Cruze is on the floor barely moving when Lyman slides back out, picking Cruze up and rolling him back into the ring, without getting in himself. Grabbing Cruze’s feet from the outside, Lyman pulls him to a corner where he positions Cruze’s legs on either side of the post, and then locks on a figure four around the ring post.

The fans are on Lyman again, as well as the referee who is threatening to disqualify him while Cruze howls in pain.

Sharper: Simon like a wild animal going after Shaun’s knee that was hurt on the outside with extreme viciousness.

Knots: You always talk about how impartial you are, prove it. Tell everyone how smart Simon is wrestling right now.

Sharper: I’ve never said the man isn’t smart, or extremely talented for that matter. He is both, but he also has an attitude that makes him a very abrasive person to be around.

Knots: You would be abrasive too if people chanted for your daughter to be whipped just to after you. These people are the cause for him being as abrasive as he is, not the other way around!

At the count of 4, Lyman breaks the hold just avoiding possible disqualification. Rolling back into the ring, Lyman is patient waiting for Cruze on a bad knee now trying to pull himself up along the ropes before chop blocking him back down in the side of that knee. Pulling Cruze to the middle of the ring now, Lyman goes back to the figure four, this time with Cruze nowhere near anywhere to break the hold. Cruze screams out in pain even as the fans start to chant his name while Lyman cranks harder and harder. As he fights and continues to spend energy, Cruze’s shoulders fall flat on the mat in exhaustion.


1…

2…


Cruze shoots a shoulder off the mat at two and a half and the crowd roars, giving him a shot of adrenaline, that allows Cruze to inch his way closer and closer to the ropes. Lyman is trying just as hard as he can to get the submission however and manages to pull Cruze back to the middle of the ring while still hanging onto the hold, intensity etched on both men’s faces while sweat glistens as well. Not having enough left at this point to try for the ropes again Cruze feeds off of the crowd’s energy, trying to turn the figure four over and reverse the pressure on to Lyman’s legs. After several moments of fighting back and forth Cruze manages to do just that, and a very painful yell precedes Lyman breaking the hold.

As he stands Lyman stomps on Cruze’s exposed mid section, then grabbing his right foot, Lyman tries to lock on the figure four again. This time though, Cruze is able to counter into a small package before Lyman can apply the hold


1….

2….


Lyman escapes at two and a half and looks somewhat surprised Cruze almost got him that time. Still in the driver’s seat though, Lyman pulls Cruze up to his feet, fires him off the ropes and then drills him into the canvas with a powerful Anderson style spine buster. Lyman sensing this is it, wastes no time floating over into the cover.


1…

2….

3….NO!


Cruze kicks out just before the three and Lyman is stares stunned at the referee indicating that was a three count for sure.

Sharper: Simon Lyman doesn’t believe it and I’m not sure I do myself, but somehow Shaun Cruze is still alive in this match and the crowd is electric again!

Knots: That was three. I don’t where SCW gets these incompetent officials, but why can’t we find someone who knows that 3 is the number after 2?!

Disgusted, Lyman gets to his feet again and then motions to the crowd it’s over before lifting Cruze onto his shoulders in a fireman’s carry. Then showing off his strength and athleticism, goes to the outside and climbs the turnbuckles to the top rope.

Sharper: This doesn’t look good for Shaun Cruze right now fans, and Simon Lyman might be moments from putting this one away.

Knots: This isn’t good for Cruze at all, but I have a feeling its going to be Simply Extraordinary!

Lyman leaps off for what would be sure a certain victory, but at the last possible instant Cruze counters the lethal fireman’s carry senton into a spectacular top rope DDT that has the fans on their feet chanting his name again.

Sharper: Unbelievable counter by Shaun Cruze!

Knots: Alright, I’ll give him credit, that was decent.

Cruze crawls over slowly and drapes an arm over Lyman for the cover…

1….

2…..

And this time Lyman is barely able to avoid the three but does, and this time even gets a few ooohs and aaahs from appreciative fans impressed by his will matching that of Cruze. Slowly each man starts to stir, both pulling themselves up with a lot of help from the ropes. Lyman despite taking the DDT from the top is still in slightly better condition than Cruze who has a hard time putting weight on his right knee still. Noticing this, Lyman after getting his bearings rushes Cruze. Somehow though Cruze is able to keep the pain away long enough to catch the rushing Lyman with a stunning superkick to the side of the face from out of nowehere, using Lyman’s momentum against him, and dropping him instantly with Morality. Not able to capitalize with a cover though, Cruze drops to the canvas next to Lyman grabbing his knee.

 

Sharper: “He hit Morality, but Lyman is just far enough away…he did the damage.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. Shaun Cruze can’t cover him!”

 

Cruze holds his knee as Lyman starts to stir. Cruze starts to turn and goes to the rope.s he starts to slowly pull himself up to his feet. Lyman stirs and is half out of it as he gets to his feet and Cruze then comes up behind him and rolls him up. He bridges back.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd cheers as Lyman rolls over after Cruze does. Cruze rolls to the ropes and has his arm raised. Lyman rolls over. Shaun slowly gets up and winces, favouring his knee. He then starts to walk around the ring. Simon slowly stirs as the crowd cheers for Shaun.

 

Sharper: “An impressive win here on Breakdown as Shaun Cruze makes an impact, makes a statement with great heart.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but how’s his knee there after that?! Lyman showing why he’s the Hero We Need…he’ll remove people like Shaun from competition!”

 

The crowd continues to cheer for Shaun as we cut backstage.


The scene opens up in the Perfect World locker room to see Kelcey Wallace just looking at herself in a mirror. Shaya comes up behind her, bubbly as always, and smiles.

 

Shaya: “Looks good!”

 

Kelcey: “Well, even if I’m not competing, doesn’t mean that I can’t look good. In fact, none of us are competing tonight. A good night for us to reflect upon Riding the Lightning.”

 

Blake just gets up and Kelcey turns to him. RJK turns to him.

 

Blake: “What? I just wanted to stretch my feet.”

 

Kelcey: “You should be the one considering the most. Then again, I could say the least.”

 

Blake: “I’m not worried about that.”

 

Kelcey: “Good. That’s Rachel’s problem now. But there is something more troubling.”

 

Shawn Mason  then comes into the room and he just nods to Kelcey.

 

Kelcey: “Shawn ensured it wasn’t a typo. You removed yourself from the battle royal.”

 

Blake sighs.

 

RJK: “Wait? Why? You’d kick ass in there.”

 

Shawn: “I’ve taken his spot to ensure Perfect World is still well represented. Making sure that one of us walks away to head to the Perfect Main Event.”

 

Kelcey: “That doesn’t explain much with Blake.”

 

Blake: “Look…it’s nothing. I just figured I needed to take myself out of the spotlight for mo-“

 

Kelcey: “Do you know how diamonds are made? Do you know how what everyone sees perfection as is forged? Plenty of pressure and surviving it all. And now you’re going to take a pass on a night where you can show how far you’ve come-“

 

Blake: “Well I haven’t been doing that yet. Maybe not being out there with twenty-nine others will help.”

 

Blake just sighs.

 

Blake: “I’m going to clear my head.”

 

Shaya: “Don’t go!”

 

Blake just turns and leaves the room. Kelcey watches him leave. She turns to RJK and then Shawn.

 

Shawn: “Maybe he’s losing his way.”

 

Kelcey: “His loss. Not ours.”

 

Kelcey just watches the door as the scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


Breakdown opens up backstage as we see Shaun Cruze limping through the hallways, towel around his shoulders as he wipes some of the sweat from his face on his way to the locker room. We then see Christy Matthews head up towards him.

 

Christy: “Shaun!”

 

Shaun stops and turns around and sees Christy.

 

Shaun: “Oh hey Christy.”

 

Christy: “Congrats out there.”

 

Shaun: “Thanks.”

 

Christy: “Look, I’ll let you get cleaned up, but just wanted to say thanks for Night Two….By the time I noticed…”

 

Shaun: “It’s fine. I’m sick of Blitzkrieg doing what he wants and with no one else heading out, I wanted to make sure he wasn’t going to do more damage.”

 

Christy: “Yeah.”

 

Shaun: “If anything, I’m more disappointed in the Watsons-“

 

Christy: “Heh…yeah….I’m not surprised.”

 

Shaun: “Oh?”

 

Christy: “Nevermind. Again…thanks.”

 

Christy turns and walks off. Shaun seems a bit intrigued by Christy’s comment as he then turns and continues on his way.


Taco vs. Dawn Lohan vs. Vanessa Raymond

 

Sharper: “Well now it’s time for our second match of the evening ladies and gentleman!”

Knots: “Triple Threat action and I envy Taco right about now that lucky S.O.B.”

Sharper: “Why am I not surprised. Well with a huge show still to come, we’ll cut right to the ring where Vanessa Raymond waits along with Jason Phillips for the remainder of the introductions.”

The camera pans around the arena showing off the capacity crowd at its fullest, waving their signs. Taking photos of the night in question, we then focus on the ring where as Sharper said Phillips stands with trusty microphone in hand, Vanessa Raymond standing in a corner waiting patiently...

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a Triple Threat match!!!”

The crowd roars with approval as he continues on.

Phillips: “Introducing next...”

The arena lights cut out completely as a chorus of mariachi trumpets ring from the speaker system, before the guitars and drums of "Te Quiero Puta" by Rammstein kicks in! As the song kicks into full flow, an explosion of pyro's goes off on either side of the stage, with the two members of the El Grande Burritos - Taco and Bell - leaping up through trapdoors on either side of the stage, holding a sloppy looking burrito in either hand. Taco and Bell walk to the very ends of the stage, yelling out a string of obscenities in Spanish at the crowd before actually throwing the burritos they hold at members of the audience. Walking back to the middle of the stage, their manager Miguel walks out onto the stage with a microphone in his hand to join them. A second microphone drops down from the rafters and their music completely cuts. Taco grabs the microphone and raises it up to his mouth as the crowd rain boos down on them.

Taco: "A burrito of hate and shame on ALL of you!"

Bell takes the mic from Taco and pulls it to his own face.

Bell: "And an enchilada of pain and suffering too!"

The music kicks back in as Bell drops the mic and looks at Taco. The pair nod to one another before suddenly turning and sprinting down the ramp, leaving Miguel to raise his own microphone to his lips and take it upon himself to do Jason Phillips' job for him.

Sharper: “As always trying to win the fans over, I didn’t think it was quite possible to put people off Taco Bell.”

Knots: “I don’t know what you’re talking about, I love these guys they’re hilarious.”

Miguel: "Silence! Silence pig-dog's! Witness the greatest team to LEGALLY cross the border in order to show you capitalist pig's what true lucha-libre wrestling is! They are fast as lightning and courageous as any of your American hero's. They are Taco and Bell, the EL... GRANDE... BURRITOOOOOOOOOO'S!!!"

Sharper: “They do realize Taco is competing tonight right?”

Knots: “Of course, what’re you trying to say about Mexicans Andrew?”

Sharper: “What, nothing!”

Taco jumps up and slides under the ropes leg-first while Bell slides under on his stomach and the pair both leap to their feet as a shower of sparks falls from the rafters above the ring. Miguel walks around to the far side of the ring as the pair pose on the turnbuckles, both standing with their index fingers pointing to the sky before dropping down and stepping into their corner to listen to the wise words of Miguel as they wait for the start of the match, however the official is quick to point at Bell and instructs him to leave the ring.

Sharper: “The official not wasting any time installing his authority on this match, Bell doesnt’ look happy however.”

Knots: “It’s just a misunderstanding that’s all!”

The chorus to "Survival" by Muse echoes from the loud speaker as Dawn Lohan pushes her way through the curtain and not long after that so does Kennedy Street. Dawn stands in front of the entrance way. She doesn't bother soaking in the crowd’s reaction to her. She is all business as she saunters down to the ring. The first verse of the song kicks in. Dawn slides under the ropes. She walks to the turnbuckle. She leans against it patiently waiting for the match to get under way as Kennedy slowly walks down the ramp teasing fans, only to walk around the ring and wait by a corner.

Knots: “Oh yes, business has picked up. The star of Aggression is now on Breakdown tonight!!!”

Sharper: “Kennedy Street in action at Aggression against Maddy Steward which should be a fierce contest without aquestion.”

Knots: “One that the forbidden fruit will take!”

Sharper: “But back to the match as the bell finally sounds!!”

Raymond, Dawn and Taco all stand in their respective corners. The bell sounds and all three begin to circle each other in the ring. Neither is sure where to go first, but the women suddenly turn their attention on Taco and sprint in his direction. Dawn connects with a kick to the gut of Taco’s before whipping him to the ropes, Dawn drops to the canvas allowing Taco to leap over but he doesn’t get far as Vanessa Raymond takes him down with a drop kick to the face. Dawn rolls to her knees and quickly covers Taco.

1... Raymond pulls Dawn off the spritely Mexican which forces the Mafia member to get o her feet and tell her that wasn’t wonderful at all. Raymond pushes Dawn Lohan back mouthing something inaudible and Dawn in shock pushes Vanessa back but as she does we see Taco roll the rookie up!

1... Dawn breaks the pin! With a double axe handle to the back of Taco. Dawn pulls him to his feet and whips him into the corner before focusing back on Vanessa and hitting a European uppercut. She then whips her towards the same corner as Taco, but the luchador leaps on to the second rope and leaps off hitting a cross body on the incoming Vanessa Raymond. Taco leaps to his feet and fist pumps the air before sprinting at an incoming Dawn Lohan taking her out with a clothesline with authority. With both women on their backs, he holds his head confused at the innuendo before him before but leaps onto Raymond with a cover.

Sharper: “Another cover by Taco!”

1... Kick out by Raymond! Taco holds his head and runs across to Dawn who kicks out before the official could even get a count started. Taco pulls Dawn to her feet and throws her through the ropes to the outside near Kennedy as he turns his attention onto Raymond who is starting to get to her feet. The two lock up, Taco with the strength advantage and whips Vanessa to the ropes. He doubles over going for a back toss only to get a kick to the kisser from Vanessa Raymond. The small fella stumbles back towards the ropes, Raymond going for a clothesline but Taco drops down pulling the top rope with him. Raymond going over, but managing to stay on the apron as Taco leaps up and points to his head confidently.

Knots: “Turn around Taco! She’s still there!!”

Sharper: “Taco clearly in for a shock!”

Taco turns around to a slap from Vanessa Raymond as she pulls him to her and applies a front face lock, she tries for a suplex but Taco kicks his legs out and lands back onto the canvas. He then pulls her up and over and twists out hitting a rope hung neck breaker on Raymond from out of nowhere to an “oooh” from the crowd. At ringside Bell and Miguel Jones both clap as Taco gets to his feet and screams more obscenities in Spanish to the crowd, and then at Raymond. The boo’s from the fans turns to cheers though as he turns around into a drop kick from Dawn Lohan. Dawn pulls him to his feet and whips him to the ropes, as he comes to the return she goes for a hip toss, but Taco lands on his feet before kicking Dawn in the mid-section doubling her over. With affront face lock applied, he hits a snap DDT and covers the younger Lohan sister.

1...

2... Kick out by Dawn! Lohan throws her shoulders up but not without holding her head in pain. Taco though rolls to his feet and goes back to work on Raymond without even a second thought as he pulls her away from the ropes and facing a corner. Taco then exits to the apron and begins to climb the corner to the top, as he does Vanessa Raymond gets to her feet and starts to scale the corner as well with the crowd beginning to buzz with excitement.

Sharper: “Oh dear, both looking a little precarious up there.”

Knots: “Taco knows what he’s doing, he’s Mexican!”

Taco throws a right hand at Raymond who blocks and connects with a right of her own, she hits another as both now stand on the top. Vanessa applying a front face lock to the little masked man. Just then as she tries to lift him up, we see Dawn on her feet and she sprints across and climbs the corner as well sitting Raymond on her shoulders and just then Vanessa lifts Taco up and all 3 go down with a mega supex plex of doom to the canvas! The crowd roars at the three bodies on the canvas, Dawn though is the first to get to her feet and covers Vanessa!

1...

2... Kick out by Raymond! Dawn holds her head and leaps onto Taco and covers him next.

1...

2... Kick out by Taco! Lohan sits up and holds her head again before getting to her feet and pulling Taco to his only to throw him out of the ring to the outside. Focusing back on Vanessa, Dawn pulls her to her feet and whips her to the ropes, and follows up with a diving forearm shot to the face and follows that up with a running bulldog into the canvas. Lohan looks at Kennedy and smiles as her tag partner cheers her on with applause before dropping a leg drop across the back of Raymonds head. Dawn again rolls over Vanessa and covers.

1...

2... The fall is stopped by... Bell! Taco is still outside, but Bell rolled into the ring as Miguel stands on the apron now grabbing the official attention.

Sharper: “WHAT THE HELL, HE ISN’T MEANT TO BE IN THE MATCH!?!”

Knots: “In Mexico that’s legal.”

Sharper: “NO IT IS NOT!”

Bell pulls Dawn to her feet and hits a chop to her chest and another before whipping her to the ropes, on the return we see Bell run at her and leap in the air and locking his legs around her neck before swinging himself out with a head scissor take down sending Dawn to the canvas. Dawn rolls away as Bell runs over to Raymond and pulls her up to her feet dragging her to the ropes and hitting a chop, he whips her to the opposite ropes and leaps across hitting a clothesline as Kennedy is now yelling at the official to focus on the match, not the manager. Meanwhile Bell covers Raymond.

Sharper: “That’s not even legal!”

1... The official suddenly stops as he sees Bell and looks around to his feet as Taco is now leaning against the apron. Bell tries to look innocent, but the official tells him to get out of the ring. As he does Taco springboards onto the top rope and leaps off for a springboard splash, but Dawn pulls Raymond out of the way with Taco hitting nothing but canvas! Taco holds his ribs in pain but gets no rest for his wickedness as Dawn quickly rolls him up.

1...

2... Kick out by Taco! Dawn is on her feet double time as is Taco who aims for a clothesline, but misses. Dawn on the other hand takes a page out of Ryan Watson’s playbook and hits a Pay Lay kick on Taco sending him stumbling back before dropping to the canvas. The crowd roars a little as Dawn gets to her feet and is quick to exit to the apron. With Taco laid out Dawn grabs the ropes and slingshots herself over for a splash on Taco, but we see Vanessa Raymond appear and hit a spinning wheel kick to Dawns face instead midflight. Raymond covers Taco quickly hooking both legs.

1...

2... Kick out by Taco! Vanessa holds his face as she rolls to Dawn and covers her.

1...

2... Kick out by Dawn!!

Sharper: “So many pin fall attempts in this match, I’ve lost count!”

Knots: “They all want this win; a win over Dawn would be a great rub after the Cashmere Mafia’s win at Riding the Lighting.”

Sharper “Very true, currently the Number one Contenders!”

Raymond gets to her feet and pulls Dawn with her before whipping her to a corner and following up with a big splash. Vanessa then drives a knee into the gut of Dawn before pushing he down to the seated position in the corner. Kennedy watches on intently as Vanessa backs up and starts to make a run, but Taco rolls her up and hooks the tights out of nowhere!

1...

2...

3? NO Raymond kicks out just about. Taco leaps to his feet and charges across the ring and hits a basement drop kick to the face of Dawn before rolling back and to his feet to go back to work on Raymond who is getting to hers now. The two lock up with a grapple, and Taco whips her to the ropes, he doubles over but Raymond grabs him with a front face lock and leaps up and twists out hitting a tornado DDT into the canvas, drilling him hard.

Sharper: “It Ain’t Easy being Beautiful! That’s what Raymond calls that.”

Knots: “She isn’t kidding, but she wears it so well!”

The crowd roars as Taco is laid out on the canvas, Bell and Miguel are screaming for him to get up as Vanessa covers.

1...

2...

3? NO DAWN BREAKS THE COUNT! Vanessa rolls off of Taco who rolls to a corner now as Dawn stomps away at Vanessa before pulling her to her feet. The two tie up with a grapple, Raymond getting the advantage and whipping Dawn to a corner. The younger Lohan however leaps onto the second rope, then the third before leaping off at the incoming Raymond catching her with a cross body. Springing to her feet. As she turns around we see Taco who is on the top turnbuckle leap off and hit a missile drop kick on Dawn taking her off her feet now, all three down for a moment before Taco kip flips to his.

Knots: “Oh yeah, Taco’s feeling it now!!”

Sharper: “He is definitely in the driving seat right now.”

The crowd begins to boo loudly for the Mexican as Bell and Miguel laugh and cheer at ringside. Kennedy is seen yelling at Dawn to get up and Raymond is just out, but not for long as Taco pulls her up to her feet and drags her to a corner. Dawn rolls to another corner as Taco plants a kick to the gut of Raymond’s. He hits a stiff chop to the chest which gets a “Wooo” from the fans, he hits another and then a third before sending her across the ring with an Irish whip. Raymond hits the corner with authority. As she staggers out Taco runs across the ring and takes Raymond down with a clothesline as Dawn starts to get back to her feet.

Knots: “Taco needs to capitalize on this quickly!”

Sharper: “Dawns backup though.”

Taco pulls Raymond to her feet and throws her down with a snapmare, only to then yell something at Dawn as he holds Raymonds head in place. Lohan looks around and hesitates at first but hits the ropes and sprints across hitting a double drop kick to the face of Vanessa’s and the chest of Taco who flies back and falls out of the ring to a pop from the crowd. Dawn then gets to her feet quickly and laughs as she rolls Raymond over and grabs her arms before lifting up and curb stomping her into the canvas before covering.”

Sharper: “MORALITY STOMP! THIS IS OVER!”

Knots: “DAMN IT, I’M SO CONFLICTED!”

The official drops to the floor and begins to count.

1...

2...

3!!!

The bell sounds as Taco fails to get into the ring in time to break the count, we can hear Kennedy cheering withawooo” in delight for her tag partner as Raymond rolls away holding her face and neck. Taco holds his head in his hands as he drops to his knees by the apron while Kennedy Street rolls into the ring and helps Dawn up raising her tag partners arms to cheers from the crowd.

 

Sharper: “A big win for Dawn Lohan in singles action here on Breakdown!”

 

Knots: “Seriously. Can anyone stop the Cashmere Mafia?”

 

Sharper: “They may be winning their way into a World Tag Team Championship shot soon enough.”

 

Kennedy raises Dawn’s hand and turns right over to the camera.

 

Kennedy: “Tag Titles or bust! It’s looking that way! We’re just beating everyone!”

 

Kennedy smirks as she turns and continues with the celebration with Dawn as we cut backstage.


Regan Street can be seen walking backstage and heading back to the locker room of Dark Fantasy and Next Level. Regan goes through the door and looks around before noticing Helms and Valentine starting to get ready.

 

Regan: “Damn it!”

 

Helms: “What’s wrong?”

 

Regan: “Nothing…just need to get a hold of the faceless assholes up in Toronto. I’ll rip Brittany Lohan’s head off tonight if I have to.”

 

Helms just gets up and heads over to Regan.

 

Helms: “Look, you know she’s trying to get to you-“

 

Regan: “I don’t give a damn. And Starr too. I’ll kick his ass too before he gets any shot. Syren better have no accepted that.”

 

Valentine: “Don’t worry there.”

 

Helms: “Yeah. That douchebag isn’t getting his shot if Zoe has anything to say about it.”

 

Regan: “Good. Then I’m going to get it instead and then I’ll destroy Lohan just for the hell of it too.”

 

Regan turns and heads out of the room.

 

Helms: “Whoa…wait!”

 

Regan leaves the room as Helms turns back to Valentine.

 

Valentine: “Don’t look at me bro. You brought her in.”

 

Helms: “Yeah…yeah…”

 

The scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


Chad Evans vs. Blitzkrieg

 

Sharper: “Welcome back everyone, to the fall out show of Riding the Lightning.”

Knots: “If you hadn’t already seen the PPV, then you need to go freaking watch it and catch up!

Sharper: “If you do check your local cable operators, there are still replays available over the weekend.”

Knots: “Yeah, so go order the replay and watch, we’ll wait here... Okay we won’t wait here, but you can still go do that and just DVR this!”

Sharper: “Anyway, we still have so much in store tonight but nothing will tickle your fancy than our next match I’m sure of it!”

Knots: “Oh god yes and that was no sly pun on my part... Okay maybe it was, but either way Chad Evans the man formerly known as God and now just a devote spokes person for the guy up stairs now takes on the so far unstoppable BLITZKRIEG!”

Sharper: “Fresh of his victory over the Watsons and Shaun Cruze at Night one with the Underground Champion Rachel McGraw and their third member who was a mystery...”

Knots: “And what a mystery, Aiken revealed it to be none other than himself. I know I had no idea who it was, and I couldn’t believe my eyes.”

Sharper: “Speaking of eyes, mine are not deceiving me as Phillips stands in the ring ready for the introductions...”

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and has a twenty minute time limit. Introducing first... He weighs in tonight at two-hundred and thirty pounds, representing GOD... CHAD EVANS!!”

"
Awesome God" by Hillside UNITED begins playing as the stadium lights up. Giant white beams fall all over the stage as Chad Evans makes his way out from the back wearing a white robe, carrying his Bible to his chest.

Sharper: “Chad here unlucky you could say at Riding the Lightning, picking up the loss in the three way against Gable Winchester and the Perfect 10 Kelcey Wallace.”

Knots: “Do you have to bring that up; he was just being a good Samaritan.”

Sharper: “Sure he was...”

"Our God, he's an awesome God

He reigns from Heaven above

With wisdom, power, and love

Our God, he's an awesome God

"Our God, he's an awesome God

He reigns from Heaven above

With wisdom, power, and love

Our God, he's an awesome God

had raises his arm up and looks up to the rafters before dropping on to one knee before bowing his head with his hands locking together in front of him over the book. Pyro begins falling from the rafters at several different parts of the arena immediately causing everything to have different tints of silver. He raises his head up and ends his short prayer before standing back up to tart walking down the ramp.

"OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD

HE REIGNS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE

WITH WISDOM, POWER, AND LOVE

OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD

OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD

HE REIGNS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE

WITH WISDOM, POWER, AND LOVE

OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD."

As he walk past a few fans he slaps their hands cheerfully while chantin "Amen" repeatedly. Stepping up along the steel steps, Chad makes his way halfway down the apron before going to step in from over the second rope. Entering the ring he raises his arms up to the crowd as the song reaches a deafening pitch.

"OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD

HE REIGNS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE

WITH WISDOM, POWER, AND LOVE

OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD

OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD

HE REIGNS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE

WITH WISDOM, POWER, AND LOVE

OUR GOD, HE'S AN AWESOME GOD!!!"

Chad places the bible carefully down at the corner before removing his white robe where they are taken by a crew member at ringside as he waits for his opponents introduction.

Phillips: “And his opponent...”

The opening piano for Blitzkrieg by Deathstars begins to bellow out from the P.A system capturing the SCW universe's attention as Aiken slowly walks out with a smirk on his face. He is dressed in an all black suit, with tailcoat. In his hand is a long walking cane which he holds confidently. Boo's begin to fill the arena as he slowly walks down towards the ring with a confident swagger in his step before drawing to a stop and turning to face the entrance. As the crowd continues to jeer he extends his arm pointing to the stage entrance nodding with a grin, the music now exploding into full swing as the camera focuses on Aiken who raises the canes handle to his lips and seems to flick a switch revealing it to be a microphone...

Aiken: "Ladies and Gentleman, children of all ages. Allow me to introduce to you a man whose sole purpose is to destroy. At Riding the Lightning he once again proved not a soul could defeat him along with your Underground Champion and I... But now you get to witness it again as he takes on a messenger of God...”

The crowd continues to boo as Aiken points down to the ring where Chad stands waiting.

Aiken: "Your God cannot protect you tonight Chad, this I am certain of and tonight we prove just who the real almighty really is! So now without further ado... He stands at a giant six feet, ten inches and weighs a little less than four hundred pounds. I give to you, the destroyer of all of your hopes and dreams - HE IS BLITZKRIEG!!!"

*BOOM*

Pyro explodes on the stage as the curtains part and out walks BLITZKRIEG. He glares from the top of the stage looking out to the crowd from behind his mask, the negative reception only fueling him more as he then looks down the ramp towards Aiken who is pointing towards the ring. BLITZKRIEG nods and he walks down the ramp past Aiken who now follows him before stopping at the bottom of the ramp watching. Blitzkrieg uses the ropes and pulls himself onto the apron, and then steps over the top rope before walking to and stopping in the middle of the ring.

Sharper: “Blitzkrieg having been on a tear will probably not get a bigger challenge than Chad Evans right about now. Say what you will about him, but he certainly has made a name for himself in this company over the years.”

Knots: “Damn right he has, I’ve been looking forward to this match all week since it was announced it really could go either way.”

The bell sounds and Chad sprints out of the corner and starts right on the attack on Blitzkrieg, the SCW veteran throwing solid right hands to a blocking near seven foot monster. Chad kicks out at the leg of the big man before backing up and slapping the face of the monster to an “oooh” from the crowd. Blitzkrieg turns his head back to look at Chad and tilts it unfazed, as Chad backs up again only this time he then spits in the face of the monster showing even more disrespect and no fear what so ever as the crowd “ooohs” once again while Aiken watches on.

Sharper: “Chad showing no fear whatsoever as Blitzkrieg looks down upon him.”

Knots: “He has GOD on his side; Chad has nothing to fear at all.”

Chad nods his head saying something that’s inaudible to the camera, and just then Blitzkrieg grabs Chad by the throat with both hands and lifts him up and over throwing him across the ring effortlessly. Chad arches his back for a moment before rolling to his feet and backing up into the opposite corner. Blitzkrieg wiping away the spit from his mask charges at Chad only to miss as the veteran moves out of the way. Quick on his feet, Chad kicks out at the back of the leg of Blitzkrieg which looks to be the main spot everyone goes for now over and over again. Blitz holding the back of his knee as Chad drops to his knee driving his shoulder into the back of it again and again. The son of God then jumps back up and backs away before charging at the back of Blitzkrieg and hitting a running drop kick to the back of his leg. Blitz stumbles back and trips over Chad falling to the canvas.

Sharper: “BLITZ IS DOWN!”

Knots: “The power of Christ compelled him!”

Sharper: “Really?!”

Chad is on his feet and starts to stomp away at Blitzkrieg over and over, laying in some seriously thick blows to the head of the near seven footer. The official tries to get in-between Chad and Blitzkrieg but to no avail, but the distraction attempt is enough all the same for Blitzkrieg to roll under the bottom rope to the outside. Chad backs up again as Blitzkrieg leans against the ring apron shaking out his leg, Evans using this as an opportunity to hit the ropes and sprint across the ring hitting another running drop kick to Blitzkrieg sending him flying back into the security barrier to a roar from the crowd.

Sharper: “Evans is taking it to the big man tonight, he isn’t messing around!”

Knots: “This is a match of Good vs. Evil Adam; Chad has to represent to the fullest!”

Sharper: “REALLY?!”

Chad rolls back to his feet as Blitzkrieg moves away from the barrier now, and makes his way towards the ring. Chad though grabs the top rope and vaults over going for a cross body on the big man. Blitzkrieg however showing his strengths catches Chad. The son of god kicks his legs but to no avail as Blitzkrieg runs towards the steel ring post and drives Chads back into it. He then backs up and does it again before walking around the ring and slamming Chads back across the ring apron. Chad winces in pain from the landing and has no chance to recover as Blitzkrieg pushes his legs into the ring and drives and elbow across the chest of Chads.

Sharper: “Blitzkrieg now looking to be in control, the official opting not to do a 10 count this time around.”

Knots: “Good, let these two go at it without any interruptions!”

Chad tries to roll into the ring, but Blitzkrieg holds him down to the apron again and drives another elbow across his chest before pushing him into the ring now and climbing the apron himself and entering the ring via the middle rope. Blitz pulls Chad to his feet and whips him to a corner now with authority as he approaches Chad and pushes him back to the corner and hits an open hand slap across the chest of the son of god. The crows “woos” and Blitzkrieg does it again and switches to a knife edge chop. The monster then walks away to the opposite corner of the ring and quickly turns and sprints across before leaping up and hitting an avalanche splash on Chad Evans, who stumbles out and collapse to the canvas. Blitzkrieg drops to his knees and rolls Chad to his back before covering.

1...

2... Kick out by Chad! Blitz looks at the official who holds two fingers up and gets to his feet pulling Chad with him. Blitzkrieg goes for a grapple, but Chad drives an elbow to the gut of the monster, He then connects with a right hand and another as some members of the crowd get behind him as now he pushes Blitz to the ropes. Chad then attempts an Irish whip of his own, but Blitzkrieg reverses sending Chad to the ropes instead. Chad then leaps and hits a clothesline on the big man but he staggers back soaking the impact.

Sharper: “That wall like frame of Blitzkriegs is just frightening; we’ve seen it takes a lot to knock him off his feet at the best of times.”

Chad watches Blitzkrieg regain some balance and he hits the ropes again, leaping up and hitting another clothesline. Blitzkrieg just stumbles back again and slaps his chest again before letting out a roar of anger aimed at Chad inviting him to true again. The son of god hits the ropes one more time, Blitz goes for a meat hook clothesline but Chad ducks, the monster turning around to a kick to the midsection doubling him over. Chad applies a front face lock and goes for a front face neck breaker, but Blitzkrieg pushes Chad away to the ropes. The son of god charging back avoiding another clothesline as he grabs Blitz by his leg and manages to roll the big man up with a hook of his pants!

1...

2... Kick out by Blitzkrieg!!

Sharper “He had the pants pulled as well!

Knots: “What, he had God’s blessing to do that!”

Chad rolls back to his feet and hits the ropes double time as Blitzkrieg sits up. The big man starts to get to his feet and gets caught with a vicious yakuza kick sending him back down to the canvas hard. Aiken watches on from the outside, never flinching or showing any signs of concern as Chad turns to look at him for a moment before focusing back on Blitzkrieg. Chad rolls Blitzkrieg onto his back now and covers hooking the leg.

1... Kick out by Blitzkrieg!

The monster throws his shoulder off the canvas but Chad wastes no time pushing Blitzkrieg back down with another cover this time with an elbow to the face of the monster.

1...

2... Kick out by Blitzkrieg!

Sharper: “Quick pin attempts by Chad hoping to catch the big man napping.”

Chad gets to his feet and mounts Blitzkrieg and begins to fire away with solid right hands to the face of Aikens monster. He tries to block best he can but has little luck as Chad continues to fire off shots to the face. Standing to his feet Chad hits the rope and drops a knee across the face of Blitz’ now, the big man rolling away and begins to get to his hands and knees. Chad runs across the ring and kicks the monster viciously in the side forcing him to drop to the canvas again. With a hand full of hair Chad pulls Blitzkrieg to his knees and hits a spin kick to the face, before following up quickly with a front face lock and delivering a stiff DDT into the canvas with a cover.

1...

2.... Kick out by Blitzkrieg! Chad looks at the official now before looking up to the heavens and clasps his hands together and mumbles something as Blitzkrieg rolls a way again, this time exiting to the outside near the announcer tables. Aiken starts to walk around the ring now to check on Blitzkrieg but Chad has other ideas as he hits the ropes and sprints across the ring and dives through the ropes into Blitzkrieg with a suicide dive. The monster flying back into the Spanish Russian announce table. The crowd start to buzz as Chad gets to his feet and drives a knee into the gut of Blitzkrieg before turning him around slamming his face into the top of the table.

Knots: “Oh my, we all know what happened in the last match Blitzkrieg was involved with and that table.”

Sharper: “I don’t think that can happen again surely.”

Chad tries to slam Blitzkrieg’s face into it again, but the monster forces a stop and drives an elbow to the gut of Chad’s. He then hits a vicious chop to the chest of Evans before turning and lifting him up into a military press showing off his strength. Aiken watches on as Blitz takes a step forward and where he looks to throw Chad into the ring, he instead hits a flap jack only Chad lands partially on the table with authority before bouncing off to the matting at ringside as the crowd roars with a mixture of cheers and boo’s...

Sharper: “Big impact move there by Blitzkrieg, which right there could change the game entirely!”

Knots: “That it could and listen to this crowd, how can they boo the son of god?!”

Blitzkrieg sits up and gets to his feet as Chad holds his chest, the monster pulling him to his feet and rolls Chad into the ring before scaling the apron and entering himself. Chad staggers to his feet and turns only to meet a charging meat hook clothesline that takes him down to the canvas. Chad rolls away trying to escape but has no such luck as Blitzkrieg grabs Chad and pulls him to his feet again, only this time he locks in a bear hug!

Sharper: “Bear hug locked in on Chad, after that flapjack on the table, Chad must be feeling it!”

Chad winces in pain as we see Blitzkrieg lock it in tightly and stand up lifting Chad off the ground. The official checks on Chad and asks if he wants to quit, but the son of god tells him no in the most expletive way possible. Holding up his hands the official backs off a little as Blitzkrieg walks around the ring as he continues to hold the move in tightly. Blitzkrieg stops in the middle of the ring again and look to apply more strength as Chad winces again, the official stepping forward and this time shaking his head as he grabs at Blitzkriegs hair pulling his head back.

Knots: “Chad doing whatever he can to get out of that hold you can see it’s taking its toll!”

The official tells Chad to let go of the hair which he does but that only fuels Blitzkrieg to squeeze even tight, Chad again pulling back on the head, and this time throwing an elbow to the face of the monster. He hits another and this time grinds the tip of the elbow into the eye of Blitzkrieg forcing the break of the hold. Chad grabs Blitz and goes for an Irish whip, but the monster spins through and sends him towards the ropes instead. On the return Blitzkrieg goes for another clothesline, but Chad ducks and hits the ropes behind, Blitzkrieg swings back with an elbow but Chad ducks that and hits the ropes again. Blitz turns around as Chad leaps up and hits a clothesline that takes the monster off his feet.

Sharper: “He’s down!”

Knots: “No, he’s up!”

Blitz is quickly back on his feet but gets caught with a drop kick that sends him stumbling back and dropping to the seated position into a corner. Chad gets up and runs across the ring driving a knee to his face, before beginning to choke Blitzkrieg out with the bottom of his boot. Blitzkrieg is fighting for air as Chad uses the ropes getting a mixed reaction from the crowd as the official yells at him to stop. Being Chad Evans however he ignores the calls from the official who promptly begins a count.

1...

2...

3...

4... Chad breaks away and paces the ring as Blitzkrieg is getting air back into his lungs. That doesn’t last too long though as Chad charges across again with another knee to the face, this time pressing his knee across the throat of the monster the official once again telling Chad to break the hold, who does and forces another five count.

1...

2...

3...

4... Again Chad backs away and motions for Blitzkrieg to get up whose tarts to pull himself to his feet using the ropes. Once on his feet, Chad charges at Blitzkrieg who doubles over and tries to throw Chad up and over, but the Son of God manages to land behinds him. Chad scales to the second rope and is quick to leap off and catching Blitzkrieg with a cutter to the canvas. Once more Chad rolls Blitz over and covers as the crowd counts with the official.

1...

2...

3? Kick out by Blitzkrieg! The monster powers out and rolls away showing no signs of letting up just yet as Chad gets to one knee and watches intently. Blitz is the first up, followed by Chad. The two lock up in the center of the ring, Chad losing the battle of strength however and being forced into a corner and trapped as Blitzkrieg drives his shoulder into the gut of Chad who winces as he receives another for his trouble. Backing up Blitzkrieg charges for another, but Evans moves out of the way and throws Blitzkrieg shoulder first into the ring post with a sickening crack.

Sharper: “Dear god I felt that from there!!”

Knots: “Bone vs. Steel, no matter how big you are, steel will ALWAYS WIN!”

The look on Blitzkriegs face says it all as even he felt that as he slowly moves out, but Chad rolls the big man up once again for a cover.

1...

2...

3? Kick out by Blitzkrieg! Chad looks up to the heavens once again and shakes his head as he gets to his feet. Pulling Blitzkrieg up Chad hits a chop to the chest and another before Blitzkrieg pushes him away. Chad goes right back on the attack now throw another few right hands, only to be pushed away once again. Blitz charges for a clothesline, but Chad ducks and scoots around applying a full nelson and quickly slamming the monster into the canvas with a face buster! The crowd roars as Blitzkrieg rolls to his back, Evans leaps on top and hooks the leg!

Sharper: “Will this be it?!”

1...

2...

3? KICK OUT by BLITZKRIEG!

Knots: “There is just NO stopping the monster; he just soaks everything up like a damn shamwow!”

Sharper: “For once I can’ actually agree with you there, he is as resilient as they come!”

Chad gets to his feet again and lies in wait for Blitzkrieg to get to his feet now, as he does we see Aiken spring to life leaping onto the apron. The official turns to tell him to get down, and in doing so Chad turns around and runs across trying to hit a Yakuza kick on the manager of Blitzkrieg. But Aiken leaps down; Chad instead lands on the ropes and falls to the canvas holding his leg. Blitzkrieg on his feet now looks down at Chad and grabs him pulling him up to his feet and scoops him up ready for a fall away slam. However Blitzkrieg walks around the ring and stops in front of a corner and falls back throwing Chad into a corner, the song of god landing hard on his head in a heap to a roar from the crowd.

Sharper: “Chad lands hard on the canvas there, not a pleasant position to find yourself in!”

Knots: “He’s gonna need a gift from god, Blitzkrieg looks to have his second wind!”

Chad rolls out of the corner holding his head now as Blitzkrieg towers over him before looking out of the crowd. He then pulls Chad to his feet and hits a suplex before getting to his feet. The crowd are booing now as Aiken has a smirk on his face while nodding at his monster. Blitz then walks towards the corner and begins to step onto the first set of ropes and pushes himself up onto the second while sitting on the top...

Sharper: “What the... Oh god...”

Knots: “He’s gonna need a god to resurrect him if he hits whatever it is he is planning!”

The crowd start to buzz wildly as Blitz looks down at a prone Chad Evans and he leaps off attempting a huge splash. Chad however rolls out of the way just in time, Blitzkrieg crashing to the canvas to both and oooh and some sighs from the crowd. Blitzkrieg stirs, starting to slowly get up. Chad gets up and looks at Blitzkrieg. Blitz gets up as Aiken watches and Chad kicks him in the ribs. He then drops to his knees and uppercuts Blitzkrieg. Blitzkrieg stumbles back and Chad nails him with a chop. He then pulls him in and knees him in the ribs. He turns and goes to grab him from behind, only for Blitzkrieg to block it and slowly start to turn. Chad then tries to pull him down, but Blitzkrieg flips him over. Chad hits the mat and starts to get up and Blitzkrieg boots him in the side of the head. The crowd ohs and Chad falls over. Blitzkrieg then just overpowers him, pulling him in before hoisting him up and driving him down with the Rigormortis! The crowd ohs.

 

Knots: “Well God’s not helping him there!”

 

Sharper: “Rigormortis plants Chad Evans! Blitzkrieg just overpowered him!”

 

He then goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

The crowd roars and Blitzkrieg then looks down and starts to get up. He just looks at Chad as Chad rolls over in pain. Aiken enters the ring and goes over to Blitzkrieg and raises his arm. The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Blitzkrieg with another impressive victory!”

 

Knots: “Can anyone stop him? Does anyone want to try?!”

 

Blitzkrieg just looks around as Aiken smiles and laughs at Chad as he stirs.


The scene opens up backstage to see Shaun Cruze, now dressed, heading through the hallways backstage. He then sees what he’s seemingly looking for and heads over as we see Ryan Watson and Thomas Watson chatting while at catering. Shaun heads over.

 

Shaun: “Hey guys.”

 

Thomas: “Oh ‘ey Shaun.”

 

Ryan: “What brings ya o’er here?”

 

Shaun: “Just thinking about something.”

 

Ryan: “Oh?”

 

Shaun: “Yeah….um…why didn’t you run out to help Lucas at Night Two?”

 

Thomas and Ryan turn to each other and Ryan just shrugs.

 

Ryan: “I was in the shower. Thomas wasn’t even watchin’ the show.”

 

Shaun: “Huh…”

 

Ryan: “Yeah….but uh, thanks for going out there and helpin’ out.”

 

Shaun: “Yeah…No problem.”

 

Shaun just looks at the Watsons as he heads off. Ryan just watches him leave before turning back to Thomas. Thomas just scoffs as the scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


"THIS... IS... KAYL TV!"


The opening chords of the 2001: A Space Odyssey theme play over the crowd, bringing the raucous SCW crowd to their feet in a unified chorus of cheers. After the opening chords and drum beats, the opening guitar riff to "The Sound of Madness" by Shinedown plays. Devon Kayl steps out on top of the ramp, with the lovely Skylar Desoubrais by his side. The ring shows a rope in the middle of the ring, along with another couple, Sammy Thomas Davies and Clamidiya dressed in a rather cheap suit and dress.

"Yeah, I get it,
You're an outcast.
Always under attack.
Always coming in last,
Bringing up the past.
No one owes you anything.
I think you need a shotgun blast,
A kick in the ass,
So paranoid. . .
Watch your back!!"

Kayl and Skylar begin to walk down to the ring. As they walk, Kayl reaches out to slap the fans' hands along the way. He grabs a camera from a fan along the railing and, handing it to Skylar, has her take a picture of him and that fan for the fan.

 

Sharper: “Devon Kayl coming down to the ring, just a couple of weeks removed from his losing it against Katie Steward and getting himself disqualified.”

 

Knots: “I loved that. Best case scenario, Kayl loses and Katie gets her ass kicked!”

 

Sharper: “But we are being told that this is going to be a tug of war dance off and Kayl is leading it…a Kayl TV exclusive.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, Kayl sucks.”

"Another lose cannon gone bi-polar
Slipped down, couldn't get much lower.
Quicksand's got no sense of humor.
I'm still laughing like hell.
You think that the cryin to me,
Looking so sorry that I'm gonna believe,
You've been infected by a social disease.
Well, then take your medicine."

Once at the bottom of the ramp, Kayl slides under the bottom rope after a short running start. He pulls himself up and moves over to the corner, jumping onto the second rope without using the top to balance himself.

"I created the Sound of Madness.
Wrote the book on pain.
Somehow I'm still here to explain,
That the darkest hour never comes in the night.
You can sleep with a gun.
When you gonna wake up and fight... for yourself?"

Kayl jumps off the ropes. By this time, Skylar is already standing in the centre of the ring, where Kayl joins her. He wraps his arm around her waist, smiling to the people around, before a quick kiss before Kayl turns and looks at the rope. Kayl then turns to Skylar who is handed a microphone. She hands it to Kayl and Kayl takes it and continues to look at the rope before turning to Sammy Thomas Davies and Clamidiya and smirks before turning back to the crowd.

 

Kayl: “Well ladies and gentlemen, before I officially announce the start of this amazing, stupendous, unprecedented event….I figure I need to make some comments on my actions at Riding the Lightning: Night Two.”

 

The crowd roars a bit.

 

Kayl: “On that night, I faced Katie Steward….the wretch that prevented me from getting my hard-earned and long deserved opportunity at the World Championship. Well, I seemed to have lost my cool. I was a bit aggressive, and for that I apologize…I apologize for not continuing to stomp on that slug and causing her to no longer be here anymore, because frankly, that’s doing the world a damn favour! But I held up…I walked away. I thought deference to the official was the better part of valour and for THAT, I apologize!”

 

Kayl pauses.

 

Kayl: “BUT!”

 

Kayl sticks his arm in the air with his finger pointing up.

 

Kayl: “I have chosen to make it up to you all with a Kayl TV Exclusive...inspired by two things EVERY wrestling fan would love to bear witness to….we will see the first ever TUG OF WAR DANCE CONTEST!”

 

The crowd buzzes while some cheer.

 

Kayl: “Now a little known fact but Skylar has been sending me to dancing lessons for YEARS because apparently she didn’t want to be embarrassed by my attendance at her zumba classes. And our opponents…well, they were….um….available. Clamidiya and Sammy Thomas Davies…I wonder why. But here are the rules, the music will play and Sammy and I….being gentlemen…will hold onto the rope while dancing with our beautiful partners….”

 

Kayl pauses as he looks at everything again.

 

Knots: “This is stupid.”

 

Sharper: “Clearly someone thought it was a good idea.”

 

Kayl: “And…music will play…..we will dance….and the first person to cross the center of the ring?”

 

Kayl pauses again as he looks at the rope and what appears to be scotch tape on the canvas, making it near impossible to see. He just looks down.

 

Kayl: “That person will lose…and the others….”

 

Kayl just turns and grabs the ropes. He holds it a bit before then just throwing it down.

 

Kayl: “No….just no….I’m not going to go through with this asinine idea. The fact that this is even going to air is pathetic. The fact that I’m INVOLVED is pathetic.”

 

Skylar comes over and it can be heard she’s saying “It was your idea.”

 

Kayl: “I am not going to continue to act oblivious to such horrible ideas that should be gifted to the Stewards so they can get their precious ring time….I am a future World Champion!”

 

Kayl pauses before shaking his head.

 

Kayl: “Sorry…I’m not going to lower myself to this anymore….Someone call Hurse or James Exeter or Cid Turner to get involved in this!”

 

Kayl just shakes his head.

 

Kayl: “No longer!”

 

Kayl turns and steps through the ropes and drops down to the floor. He just shakes his head no as Skylar looks confused. She then steps through the ropes and walks down the steel steps before dropping down to the floor. Kayl starts to the back as Skylar starts to follow him. Kayl and Skylar head to the back as Kayl just shakes his head and continues to walk to the back. The crowd buzzes and some start to boo.

 

Sharper: “Kayl just leaving the ring.”

 

Knots: “Sammy Thomas Davies and Clamidiya are standing in the ring confused and ironically, it’s not because they’re in the ring!”

 

Sharper: “Kayl and Skylar were going to entertain, but I guess not.”

 

Kayl and Skylar head to the back and disappear through the curtain as the crowd starts to boo. Sammy Thomas Davies and Clamidiya turn to each other and Sammy shrugs before then going over to the rope and holding onto it and then inviting Clamidiya to start to dance. Sammy Thomas Davies extends his arm, and Clamidiya takes it, but as she does, pyro shoots out from the entrance way and we then “L1FEL1KE” by Karnivool starts to play throughout the arena. We then see Rachel Foxx and Jessica Rose start to walk out from the back. The crowd roars and Sammy Thomas Davies turns to the entrance way, as does Clamidiya. Jessica Rose then starts to walk down to the ring with Rachel Foxx a few strides behind her, sledgehammer brandished over her shoulder.

 

Knots: “Oh boy! This is going to be fun!”

 

Sharper: “Rachel Foxx is coming to the ring!”

 

Knots: “Hide your testicles! She’s got a sledgehammer!”

 

Jessica Rose and Rachel Foxx reach the ring. Rachel then walks up the steel steps and Jessica slides into the ring. She then immediately goes for Clamidiya. The crowd roars and Clamidiya goes to cover up, but Jessica Rose nails her with a series of hard shots to the head and shoulder. Just then, STD turns and grabs Jessica and tries to pull her off, but Rachel enters and goes over and nails him in the back with the sledgehammer. He drops to the mat as the crowd ohs. Jessica Rose then turns and smiles before Clamidiya turns and nails Jessica with a hard right and then a kick before Rachel turns and nails Clamidiya in the head with the end of the hammer, knocking her down. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Oh! Hard shots to both! Why is she doing this?!”

 

Knots: “I’m not going to go and ask her! I value my weekend evenings!”

 

Sharper: “First she brutally attacks Hudson after their match and then Pete Ebdon on Night Two and now this!”

 

Sammy Thomas Davies stirs a bit and Rachel smiles as she walks over. She then places the head of the sledgehammer onto his crotch and smiles before she then stands over him and turns before stomping on the hammer head. The crowd ohs as Sammy Thomas Davies rolls over, howling in pain as he holds himself. Rachel just lets out a sinister laugh as she looks at Davies.

 

Sharper: “Oh my God!”

 

Knots: “Jesus!”

 

Sharper: “That’s sick!”

 

Davies continues to yell in pain and Rachel Foxx just smiles as she watches him. We then see Christy Matthews run out from the back. She runs down to the ring and Rachel Foxx just continues to laugh as she then rolls out of the ring. Jessica Rose rolls out with her and the two of them look up at Christy as she slides in. She looks at Jessica and Rachel as they keep looking in the ring. Christy just looks at them as officials head to the ring to check on Sammy Thomas Davies and Clamidiya. The scene then slowly fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


Breakdown returns and we see Blake Mason walking through the hallway before he just takes a few steps and slows down. He then see Tatum McGraw standing a few feet in front of her. Tatum just smirks as she then walks over to Blake.

 

Tatum: “Ah Blake…I guess ya didn’t want the shot enough….a shame…could’ve had some fun.”

 

Blake: “Yeah, well-“

 

Tatum: “Shame. You coulda gotten close again. Really ended this all. But I got Rachel again. That’s gonna be fun. A little favour and a bit more fun…a bit more violence. A bit more success.”

 

Blake: “This isn’t you-“

 

Tatum: “Just like you aren’t perfect. Enjoy tha show Blake. Happy a loser like you aint runnin’ with me anymore. Have fun bein’ the fourth wheel.”

 

Tatum lets out a brief chuckle before walking past Blake. Blake just watches her walk off before shaking her head and then storms off as we head back to ringside.


The Next Level (David Helms & Tommy Valentine) vs. Jake Starr & Brittany Lohan

 

The Arena is plunged into complete darkness as the sound of footsteps begins to reverberate around the vast building. White spotlights roam around the audience as words begin to fade in on the big screen.

"There's A Fine Line Between Hero And Villain..."

In the arena, the sound of footsteps grows a little louder as the words on the screen are replaced by a video package shot from ground level, showing two shadowy figures walking up a gravel path towards the camera.

"...Most Of The Time"

The footsteps have risen to an almost unbearable level as a the screen changes back to the same video, this time showing only the legs and feet of the two figures as they’re now remarkably close to the camera. The footsteps reach a crescendo as the two figures stop dead in front of the camera.

"But THIS Time... It's Fairly Obvious Which Is Which!"

The shot tilts upwards and pans out to reveal Thomas Valentine and David Helms smirking into the camera. On cue, Helms throws his arms up into the Self High Five as Valentine throws his arms out wide on either side of him.

“THE NEXT LEVEL!”

The video quickly changes to a montage, showing both men hitting various moves, including Valentine’s ‘Grievers Bane’ and Helms’s ‘New Jersey Neckbreaker’ as “The Flood” by Escape The Fate blasts over the arena’s pa system. The song is in full flow as the curtains part, allowing Thomas Valentine and David Helms to walk out onto the stage to a resounding chorus of boo's from the crowd. Both men stride out to the top of the ramp before stopping, revelling in the negative reaction from the crowd, who are going crazy, hating on the two members of The Next Level. Throwing his arms up, Helms jumps in the air and does the Self High Five and as he brings his hands apart fireworks erupt from either side of the ramp, going all the way down to the ring before the house lights come back on.

Not wanting to be outdone, Valentine steps in front of Helms and with a smirk on his face he crosses his arms over his chest so his hands are almost touching his shoulders before flinging them apart, making beckoning movements with his hands, fireworks erupting from the stage with each gesture, as he cocks his head to the side slightly. After their burst of one-upmanship, the pair nod at one another, smirking smugly, before sprinting down to the ring jumping up and sliding under the ropes. Once in the ring, both men take a separate corner and pose for the fans who are still booing wildly, before jumping down and switching corners, repeating the process. Hopping down from the ring posts, the showboating practically over with, both men stand in the centre of the ring, ready for whatever is ahead of them. Valentine, smirking and looking slyly across at Helms, mocks his friend a little by doing a Self High Five of his own, causing more fireworks to erupt from the stage. Smiling and shaking his head, David looks back at his partner before unleashing a Self High Five of his own, showing him how it’s done as - once again - fireworks shoot out of the stage at the top of the entrance ramp. Laughing, the pair high five before standing side by side and waiting for their opponents, the crowds boos still echoing around the room.

 

Sharper: “The Next Level is coming off a successful defense of their World tag Team Championships on Night One of Riding the Lightning Weekend.”

 

Knots: “Helms also defended his Adrenaline title successfully! The curse has been broken!’

 

Sharper: “Well, tonight, they’re going to have to again be on their A-game as they face two very focused individuals in Jake Starr and Brittany Lohan and Jake Starr is still waiting for an official response from Syren regarding the challenge he made!”

 

The lights in the arena slowly dim, culminating in a sea of darkness. A male voice is heard over the PA system. His diction is firm, and fierce, as if trying to "rally the troops," or give a "pep talk" to someone, and his message is clear...

Rise up and take the power back,
It's time the fat cats had a heart attack,
You know that their time's coming to an end,
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend!

After he finishes, there is a massive explosion of pyro from the stage. "Uprising" by Muse begins to emanate from the speaker system, and laser beams begin to fire around the arena. As the song reaches the opening verse, two spotlights drop onto the entry way where Jake Starr stands, back to the crowd, head looking down, and his fist pointed straight to the heavens. His arm is tense and shaking. He slowly turns his fist so it's now pointing "backward," and as he lowers it down, bending at the elbow, he spins his body around, and trusts his fist forward, directed straight toward the ring, to a huge roar from the audience.

Along with the thrusting of his arm, he begins walking toward the ring. His path is slow and steady, pausing several times to take in to account the fans holding their hands up as a sign they stand behind the Social Misfit cause. As the second chorus kicks in, Jake reaches the apron of the ring.

They will not force us,
They will stop degrading us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious
So come on

As the chorus plays, Jake climbs up onto the apron. He looks in all four directions, including behind him. As the chorus ends, and the "Hey" chants come over the loud speaker, the crowd is illuminated by bright white lights, and with each chant, thrust their fists skyward. Several fans have signs in the shape of the infamous "Misfit Revolution" fist.

Jake nods, and with one final show of leadership to the "followers" of the Social Misfit cause, he thrusts his fists skyward one last time, which ignites one final explosion of pyro from each of the four ring posts.

He then walks over to the turnbuckle and climbs up onto the second turnbuckle of one of the corners, and mouths the words, "You're looking at the best in the fucking world," and then points out to the crowd saying, "Nobody will stop me... Not in MY HOUSE!" Jake then raises his fist in the air again, pointing at it, and screams, "THIS IS WHO I AM!"

 

Knots: “Sorry Jake, you’re not best in the world. You never were. Syren is!”

 

Sharper: “Jake Starr lost the World Championship on Night One, but tonight, he’s looking to get a measure of momentum if you will against Syren’s boyfriend, David Helms and Tommy Valentine, Jake’s former friends.”

 

Knots: “You’d think he’d get sick of getting his ass handed to him by David Helms.”

 

Sharper: “Stop it.”

 

Knots: “What?!”

 

‘I am done pretending’

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

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

‘After the lights go out on you
After your worthless life is through
I will remember how you scream
I can't afford to care
I can't afford to care’

With clenched fists, gritted teeth, and glaring icy eyes… Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically. Mary follows suit, walking with Brittany side by side the entire time. 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.

I am suffocating
You have failed to pull me in
I will drag you down again
Life is unrelenting
Feeding lies into my head
I will feed the lies you live

Now you want to take me down
As if I even care
I am the monster in your head
And I thought you'd learn by now
It seems you haven't yet
I am the venom in your skin
And now your life
Is broken

As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down to a snails 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. Meanwhile Mary walks over to the announce position, grabs a steel holding chair and places it in front of the ring.

With Britt 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 the start of the match. Lohan’s video finishes up with the words: “…Just stand there and stare as my world crumbles.” Jake turns to her and just exits the ring as Lohan remains in. Tommy and David talk to each other before David stays in the ring.

 

Sharper: “Lohan has the World Champion at Taking Hold of the Flame. Tonight, she’s teaming with Jake Starr. That’s an interesting fact in and of itself.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, especially since Lohan essentially is screwing Jake Starr over by taking that title match. It’s great!”

 

The bell sounds and Lohan and Helms look at each other. Lohan just watches Helms as Helms walks along the ropes. He then suddenly turns and runs at Lohan, but Lohan blocks a hard right and nails Helms with one of her own. Lohan nails him again and then again. Helms falls to the ropes and Lohan grabs Helms and whips him across the ring and into the ropes. Helms bounces off and Lohan goes for a back elbow, but Helms ducks. He bounces off the other side and Lohan back drops him over. The crowd roars. Helms gets up and turns to Lohan and Lohan kicks him in the ribs. She then bends him over and goes for the double underhook, but Helms pulls back and drops down to the mat and rolls to the ropes. Lohan just looks at him and smirks as Helms starts to get up. Lohan watches him and Helms then tags in Tommy.

 

Sharper: “Helms getting out of there fast. Lohan having his number early.”

 

Knots: “Well, this is all the mind games. Helms and Valentine are going to be a far better team than Starr and Lohan!”

 

Tommy enters and looks at Lohan. Lohan just smirks as Tommy then moves in and drops down and Lohan clubs him in the back. She clubs him again and then whips him into the ropes. Tommy however jumps up and nails her with a flying forearm. The crowd boos and Lohan falls back into the ropes. Tommy gets up and runs over and nails Lohan with a series of hard rights to the face. He then kicks her in the ribs and drags her over to the Next Level corner and kicks her a few times. Tommy then tags in David and David enters and he starts to stomp away at Lohan too as the two of them just tee off, kicking over and over again. Lohan ends up in a seated position.

Helms backs off and then tags Tommy back in. Tommy enters and Lohan starts to get up and Tommy nails her with a hard right and then pushes her against the ropes and chops her.

 

Sharper: “Tommy and David are starting to show off that tag team familiarity. Quick tags and isolating Lohan. You have to wonder if this is a concerted effort to wear her down before Taking Hold of the Flame in about a month’s time.”

 

Knots: “Who cares if it is or isn’t. It’s happening!”

 

Jake just watches as Tommy chops Lohan again. The crowd woos again. Tommy then whips her across. Lohan bounces off the ropes and Tommy nails her with as spinning heel kick and goes for the pin.

Lohan kicks out. She rolls over and Tommy gets up and grabs her, clubbing her in the back. He then grabs her by the head and goes for a vertical suplex. Lohan blocks it. The crowd cheers a bit and Tommy clubs her in the back. He tries again, but Lohan blocks it again. She then hoists Tommy up and throws him down, stomach first into the top rope. Tommy hits so hard that he flips back into the ring. Lohan then falls against the ropes. Starr reaches in for the tag, but as Tommy gets up, Lohan walks over and jumps up and hits a leg drop to the back of his head, forcing him back down.

 

Sharper: “Lohan with a variation of a leg drop bulldog takes down one half of the World Tag Team Champions!”

 

Knots: “Great. The problem is that she’s still in the ring and if she wants to actually have a chance to win, she’ll have to accommodate Jake Starr’s ego and let him in.”

 

Sharper: “Lohan however seems to be debating staying in there!”

 

Lohan gets up and looks at Tommy. She then starts to lift him up. She elbows him in the back of the head before then driving her knee into him. Lohan then grabs Tommy and turns before hip tossing him into the corner where Jake Starr is. Tommy hits the turnbuckle and rolls back onto his stomach as the crowd ohs. Lohan then smirks before tagging in Starr. The crowd roars as Starr enters the ring and quickly grabs Tommy and hoists him up before dropping him with a snap back suplex. He rolls over and hooks the leg.

Helms makes the save. He backs away as Starr looks up. He grabs Tommy and drags him up and chops him. The crowd woos. He chops him again and more woos. He then whips him into the ropes. Tommy bounces off the ropes and Jake turns and clotheslines him down. He then runs over and nails Helms with a hard  forearm. He nearly falls over, but remains on the apron, keeping his cool. Starr smirks before stomping Tommy in the face. Tommy starts to get up and Starr grabs him. Tommy then rakes his eyes. Starr stumbles back and Tommy runs over and grabs Starr before running him over into the Next Level corner. Starr hits face first and stumbles back. Tommy tags in Helms. Helms then climbs up to the top rope and dives off with a flying clothesline, but Starr ducks. Helms rolls through and gets up as the crowd cheers and Starr dropkicks him in the jaw, knocking him down.

 

Sharper: “Hard dropkick! Down goes Helms!”

 

Knots: “How the?! Lucky bastard!”

 

Helms gets back up and Starr kicks him in the ribs and throws him over with a snap suplex. The crowd roars. He rolls over and runs into the ropes and hits an elbow drop. He goes for the pin.

Helms kicks out. He rolls over and Starr turns and nails him in the back of the head with a hard right and then another and another before getting up. He then grabs Helms and turns and goes to whip him into the corner. Helms hits the corner and Starr runs after him, but Helms gets his elbow up and then runs out and clotheslines Starr down. Starr rolls over as the crowd ohs. He starts to get up and Helms kicks him in the ribs before gutwrenching him up and dropping him with a sitout powerbomb.

Starr kicks out as Lohan just watches. Helms rolls back and starts to get up. He walks over and stomps Starr as he starts to stir.

 

Sharper: “Helms now just going right after Starr, not holding up at all!”

 

Knots: “Helms is just reminding Starr that he’s where he should be, under his shoe!”

 

Starr rolls over and Helms then grabs him and lifts him up. He then shoves him into the corner. He kicks him in the ribs and nails him with a chop to the chest. The crowd woos. He then goes to whip Starr across, but Starr spins through and sends Helms into the corner. He hits the corner and Starr runs over and nails him with a running clothesline. The crowd ohs. Starr backs up and Helms steps out and Starr hoists him up and spins around before hitting an inverted atomic drop. Just then, the crowd roars as Starr starts to get up. He bounces off the ropes and jumps up and hits a leg drop to the chest of Helms. Just then, we see Lohan pulled off the apron and Regan Street is standing behind her. Starr starts to go for the pin, but the official calls for the bell. The crowd roars and Lohan falls back to the barricade.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street! She’s at ringside!”

 

Knots: “And she’s going after Lohan!”

 

Regan then starts to nail her with repeated shots to the forehead. The crowd roars. Mary just watches as Lohan takes a few shots before shoving her back. Regan then turns and runs at Lohan, but Lohan catches her and just throws her back. Starr just turns, watching her and Regan falls against the ring. Starr grabs her and starts to lift her up onto the apron. Starr just looks at her and shakes her head before Helms and Tommy clubs Starr from behind. Starr turns and nails Helms with a shot before nailing Tommy, but Helms then kicks him in the ribs as Regan turns and starts to head to the ring. Lohan turns and grabs her, but Regan turns and grabs her. They trade a few blows as Regan is on the apron and officials run down from the back and head to the ringside area. Several get in between Regan and Lohan as a number enter the ring and get Starr away from Helms and Tommy, and Regan enters the ring and Helms then goes over and holds her back as she watches both Starr and Lohan.

 

Sharper: “Officials coming out and breaking this up. Starr even went after Regan!”

 

Knots: “Probably because he’s still pissy about Night One!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know, but Regan Street throwing a hell of a first shot against the person who is facing Syren at Taking Hold of the Flame. I think Regan wants her first!”

 

The crowd starts to chant “Let them fight!” Lohan lets out a laugh as Mary just smirks as Regan looks at her. Starr just yells at Regan, Helms and Tommy as Tommy and Helms stand back, holding Regan back. The crowd roars as the cameras continue to show the officials holding everyone back as the scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


We see a still of Jake Starr up in the air, about to hit the leg drop on David Helms.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. A hell of a scene to close out one of our two main events here tonight.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. Regan Street finally saw a chance to go after Brian Lohan!”

 

We see Jake Starr’s leg drop before showing Lohan pulled off the apron and Regan Street standing behind her. Starr starts to go for the pin, but the official calls for the bell. The crowd roars and Lohan falls back to the barricade. Regan then starts to nail her with repeated shots to the forehead. The crowd roars. Mary just watches as Lohan takes a few shots before shoving her back. Regan then turns and runs at Lohan, but Lohan catches her and just throws her back. Starr just turns, watching her and Regan falls against the ring. Starr grabs her and starts to lift her up onto the apron. We then cut to show the officials holding everyone apart.

 

Sharper: “Obviously a raucous scene. Regan Street not pleased about Riding the Lightning: Night Two where Lohan involved herself and no love lost between Jake Starr and her as well.”

 

Knots: “The question is whether this is going to lead to anything.”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know, but I’m sure the Board of Directors are watching and considering some reaction.”


"You think you know me?"

"I AM FALLEN!"

The fans jump to their feet as the opening notes of "Metalingus" by Alter Bridge play loudly. On the screen plays the words spoken "I am fallen" until a light shatters them, the glowing, angelic figure of Rose Savior appearing in a white light as the fog grows from the entryway on the stage. As the music plays, the words reform into their true message:

"Ex Cineribus Resurgam"

"On this day, I see clearly!
Everything has come to life.
Bitter place in a broken dream and I leave it all behind
Not a chance to chase a dream.
Not a chase to feel ALIVE!!"

The fans in the stands are up in cheers and roars as from the growing mist of fog walks out The Rising Phoenix, Christian Savior. He looks around as he holds up the SCW United States Championship. The crowd roars as he then starts to make his way down to the ring.

 

Sharper: “The United States Championship is on his way to the ring and Christian Savior is certainly going to have a few things to say about this.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. He needed to get his own stipulation, insult legends far greater than him and so much more just to have a chance. How pathetic!”

 

Sharper: “He’s the US Champion. That’s what matters at the end of the day.”

 

Savior walks over to the ring and walks up the steel steps and enters into the ring. He looks around and smirks as he readjusts the US Championship over his shoulder before asking for a microphone. Jason Phillips hands him one. Savior takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring and smirks. He then looks at the SCW US Championship and repositions it.

 

Savior: “So apparently Ravyn Taylor knows that she can beat me. Well there’s a problem with just that. I can beat her too and I have this to prove it.”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Savior: “See, Ravyn, I made it clear of one thing…you could take advantage of the interference of those around you to get it done, but when it came down to it, my spear was going to beat you any time I decided and that’s exactly what happened at Riding the Lightning: Night Two. Now, you’ve not said anything since and that’s all well and good. My issue right now is no longer against you. I’ve beaten you. I have what I want. You want another go, I have no problem with spearing you again and beating you yet again and proving that I am better than you!”

 

The crowd cheers as Savior smirks and walks around the ring.

 

Savior: “But see I may still have a problem with the man who you see something in and that’s CHBK. See, he decided to take it personally when I wanted to shove him in a cage and well, he should take it personally. It has everything to do with his abilities and the fact that had he not been around, this time spent against Ravyn Taylor never would’ve happened. Now, I don’t know if he’s even going to show up again. He’s taken it so personally that he’s decided to go home and stay there and while I’m sure the punch and prunes that the nurses provide you are great, the fact is that if you ever have the balls to come into the ring, I’ll happily show you that you should stay at home and I’ll give you something personal to think about more. But until then…feel free to stay at home. I’m instead going to do what I should be doing and that’s being the US Champion and showing Thirteen and everyone else what a champion is!”

 

The crowd cheers some more.

 

Savior: “And after showing Ravyn Taylor that I can and will beat anyone, I dare anyone else to come up against me. From Thirteen to Ravyn Taylor to CHBK to ANYONE who thinks they deserve a shot. I’m not going to hide. I’m not going to have someone lurking in the shadows to make sure I get the win. I’m just going to do what I do and that’s take advantage of opportunities and show the world that I never left. After where I was last year, Thirteen, every win, every success, I will just show you that you’re not going to stop me and no one will!”

 

Metalingus” starts to play throughout the arena. Savior turns and hands off the microphone before turning and starting to make his way out of the ring. He steps through the ropes and drops down to the floor.

 

Sharper: “That says it all. Savior has the confidence and he knows he’s got something going here.”

 

Knots: “I just wish Thirteen hit him harder!”

 

Sharper: “He’s the US Champion and he’s calling out the roster. Whether it’s Ravyn, CHBK, Thirteen or someone else, who is going to step up?”

 

The crowd continues to cheer as Savior makes his way down the rampway and claps hands with a few fans as he starts to head to the back. We then cut to ringside where Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots are.

 

Sharper: “Well as Christian Savior has thrown down the gauntlet for those interested in going after the US Championship, we have a big announcement to make for tonight. After what happened during the Next Level/Jake Starr/Brittany Lohan match-“

 

Knots: “Horrible that Starr and Lohan still are standing after, by the way!”

 

Sharper: “Well the Board of Directors have opted to try and resolve the SCW World Championship situation to some extent. Later tonight, we are going to see…it’s happening-“


“Rescue Me” starts to play as we see the Breakdown logo come up on the screen. We then see a shot of Regan Street vs. Jake Starr come up on the screen.

 

Sharper: “Tonight, Regan Street and Jake Starr will go one on one. They must win by pinfall or submission and the winner will receive a World Championship rematch next Breakdown.”

 

Knots: “Holy crap!”

 

Sharper: “They’re getting their opportunity and you have to wonder what Syren or Brittany Lohan have to say about this. Tonight is getting interesting. Breakdown return after this!”

 

The scene slowly fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


The scene opens up backstage as we see Ravyn Taylor standing backstage with Jessica Winters. The crowd boos seeing Ravyn. Ravyn turns to Jessica.

 

Jessica: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am here outside the Dark Fantasy dressing room with Ravyn Taylor. You just heard the comments from Christian Savior. Any thoughts?”

 

Ravyn just smirks.

 

Ravyn: “Good to see that Christian Savior is just beaming with arrogance. He gets one break and a lucky one at that and of course, he’s willing to make claims that he has no way of backing up. I will simply state this for Christian…CHBK is no coward and if he feels the need to respond to you, he will. As for myself, I will happily point out that I do have a rematch clause and I may very well take advantage of it, especially given Christian’s newfound arrogance. But perhaps I should demand some stipulations. Perhaps I should make Christian wrestle with one leg broken…or with both arms tied behind his back, making his spear that much harder….or maybe I should just make it that he has to wrestle with a gag in his mouth so we don’t have to hear his drivel. I’m unsure. But regardless, Christian, much like CHBK, if I choose to do so, I will make your life a living hell for my entertainment largely because I can and you’re winning the US Championship hardly prevents that or proves otherwise.”

 

Just then, the door opens from the locker room and Syren steps outside. She looks around, clearly unhappy before stopping and Ravyn turns to her.

 

Jessica: “Syren! Can I get a word from you?!”

 

Ravyn just turns to Jessica, not exactly impressed.

 

Ravyn: “Well that was rude?”

 

Syren steps forward.

 

Syren: “About what? How the board of directors is looking to make me defend this title next week against Jake Starr, that is if he wins. I don’t think he deserves anything after what he tried to pull a couple of months ago. And the rest of us know what I think about Regan. They’re going to pull this. Well, you know what. Let them try. And whether it’s Regan or Jake, I’m not going to give up my title to either of them without a damn war. I’m the champ and plan to be for a long damn time!”

 

Syren then turns to Ravyn before motioning to her. Ravyn just turns and Syren and her return to their locker room as we head to ringside.


Collin Cole vs. N.M.E.

 

‘Now!’
The lights flash and the crowd roars as 'The Animal' by Disturbed plays through the arena. The titantron shows the eyes of a beast. The crowd holds up their signs that say 'From Russia Without Love!' 'XYZ!', and 'I Have Stockholm Syndrome!'.

'I can feel the animal inside
My resolve is weakening
Pounding at the doors of my mind
It's nearly overpowering
I cannot begin to describe
The hunger that I feel again'

The camera goes a random spot in the SCW Arena as a motorcycle bursts past the camera and towards the ring.

For the beast is coming to life
Taking form in the glimmer in this tainted moonlight
Death approaches on this night

From one of the audience exits, we see the motorcycle emerge. The biker raises his arm as the crowd goes nuts. He does not wear a helmet but rather a helm of a rat on it with eyes that match the titantron's.

'For the animal's soul is mine
We will be completed right before your eyes'

The man gets off the bike.

Sharper: “N.M.E. about to face someone he teamed with at Retribution and almost that situation coming full circle. But also, N.M.E. looking to rebound from a loss at Night One of Riding the Lightning weekend.”

Knots: “Yeah. Well, he shouldn’t beat himself up too much about it. He lost to Orlando Cruze and Simon Lyman. Both awesome in their own right.”

I have no control this time
And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight

Kirov starts walking down the stairway towards the ring, zipping open his biker jacket and low fiving the fans.

'We begin the hunt and I
Feel the power course, as the creatures take flight
For the kill is close and I will be satisfied
For the smell of fear tonight'

He hops over the security wall and slides into the ring, staying on all fours for a second and looking around with a fire in his eyes.

'For the animal's soul is mine
We will be completed right before your eyes
I have no control this time
And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight'

He gets up, taking off his leather jacket and tossing it out of the ring while he goes to the turnbuckle, mouthing to the audience, 'трахают страха' ('Fuck Fear!') before closing his eyes and taking in a deep breath while raising his head to the sky. Slowly, he raises his right hand and puts it over half of his face while his left grips the right's wrist, the symbol for the Bite.

'And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight'

With his hand, he takes off his helm, lowering his hood in the process. He then poses again for the crowd, arms outstretched.

Sharper: The man known as N.M.E taking on Collin Cole to night. You have to wonder, Knots, if NME is looking to regain some footing in the Adrenaline circuit or has he been eyeing something else over the last week or so.

Knots: Sure, why not. Cole probably thinking the same.

The opening riff to "Cochise" hits the PA system and the fans begin to boo. The song eventually kicks into gear as Collin Cole emerges from the curtains sporting a black and red jacket. Soon, Siousxie Blade skips with him and plays with Collin's hair as he makes his way down the ramp.

Ring Announcer:From San Francisco, California, weighing in at twenty hundred and fifty pounds, Collin-

"MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND!"

Cole turns around in surprise, as do the audience as "Money" by I Fight Dragons blares across the arena. Immediately, the fans are on their feet as golden lights and sparkling white fireworks rain down near Cole and Siousxie-

Knots: What the-

Sharper: Johnny Dollar?

As Sharper predicts, from the rain of gold and white comes the smiling figure of The Millionaire of SCW, Johnny Dollar. Pointing at all the masses, he applauds them, clearly enjoying the stealing of the moments for Cole and Kirov. With a smile, he slowly points at Cole before walking down, custom golden microphone in hand.

Knots: Oh god, why is he here? Oh god is he going to talk?

Sharper: I think this has something to do with-

Knots: Please tell me he isn't going to talk!

Dollar: Now, sorry for interrupting, Cole. Believe me, I'm a big fan of "Cochise".

Cole looks on, clearly not pleased at the interruption. Reaching into his pocket, Dollar pulls a crisp one-hundred dollar bill.

Knots: What the- what? Did Cole park Dollar's car or something?

Sharper: You know, you can pretend you don't read "Wall-Street Journal" all you want, we all know you do.

Knots: Oh I did. And it proved he was an idiot. The guy has a trust fund. He doesn’t need Dollar’s beer money!

Cole looks at the bill in disgust before grabbing it. With his hands, he rips the bill into pieces before throwing said pieces into the face of Johnny Dollar.

Knots: Told you!

Instead of being upset, Dollar slowly smiles before Cole takes the microphone out of the Almighty Dollar's hand.

Cole: You've got about five seconds to get back up that ramp and away from me or I turn his mauling-

He says, pointing to N.M.E., who is seen shuffling his cards as he stares down the two men.

Cole (back to Dollar): Into yours.

Dollar merely smiles further, letting out a slight laugh before putting his hands up. Taking the microphone from Cole, Dollar backs away and up the ramp.

Knots: Thank god. Took some strong words but Dollar's finally getting the picture. We don't want him here or his money.

Sharper: But I think that's what Johnny wanted.

Johnny reaches the ramp as Cole reaches the apron-

NME: Stop!

Dollar turns around to look back at the man in the ring, who has clearly had enough waiting for his match to begin and of all these games.

NME: Хватит этой ерунды! Хватит этой глупости!

He stops for a minute to pace around the ring. Dollar, meanwhile, looks around the audience, shrugging his shoulders before lifting the microphone to his lips.

Dollar: I'm sorry, could you repeat that?

NME: Enough of this stupidity!

Dollar: I'm sorry. One more time.

NME: Enough!

Dollar: Nope.

NME: Enough!

Dollar: Still not catching it.

NME: Enough, I said! No more!

Dollar says nothing, merely grinning at the irate Twisted Toymaker.

Knots: Oh yeah, piss off the angry Russian. It's worked SO well in the past.

NME: You are what is wrong with SCW, Mr. Dollar. You sit there in your luxury and your dirty money and you throw it around. Yet you only favor the weak people like you. Not the strong warriors like me.

Dollar looks around, crossing his arms as he waits for NME to continue.

NME: I read your little trash article. I heard the rumors. I have heard the stories as well, confirming those rumors. You desire to place money on this little man in his match with me. That if he wins, you will shower him with riches. But what if I win?

NME is silent while Dollar merely tilts his head to the side.

Knots: Actually, that's a good question.

Sharper: Yes it is. But I don't think Dollar's caring about that outcome.

NME: When I win, Mr. Dollar, and I take down your little "racehorse". You, like any gambling man, will walk down into the ring and pay the winner. I will take the million dollars from you. So I can burn it down.

Dollar looks to the audience, Cole circling the ring. Slowly, Johnny lifts the microphone to his lips.

Dollar: So you want me to extend to you the same opportunity that I gave Cole, is that right?

NME merely nods, smiling confidently.

Dollar: Yeah, thing is, Russian...I don't think I can do that.

N.M.E. just continues to look at Dollar

Dollar: See, I already paid for an exterminator, so I can't really give more money towards a rat.

Dollar says, pointing to the rat helm that Kirov wore to the ring.

Dollar: I already paid to have my dog neutered, so huskies and wolves are out of the question.

Kirov takes that note to look at his "wolf" tattoo on his chest.

Dollar: And really, I wish you had told me sooner, Kirov, cause just yesterday, I gave a lot of money towards fixing up the lighting design on my new casino, "The Midas Touch". So I can't really put much money towards letters.

The audience are enjoying this, which is not really the case for either NME or Cole.

Dollar: So, I'm afraid that since I can't give more money to pests, bitches, or letters, let me tell you three letters I CAN support.

He says, holding up his hand with three fingers up.

Dollar: S.C.W. And last I checked, Mr. no-NaME, you didn't have any of those letters in your name, do you?

There's a moment of laughter as fans begin chanting "No-Name. No-Name".

Sharper: I don't think Dollar is making a smart move by pissing off Kirov.

Knots: When has that man EVER made a smart move?!

Dollar: Now, if I were you, I'd be less worried about taking my money, and more concerned with taking your lumps.

Kirov is confused but is soon too shocked to speak as Cole, coming from nowhere, rolls him up into an inside cradle. The bell immediately rings and the ref drops to count the pin!

3! NO! NME just manages to roll out of the pin, scrambling back to his feet in surprise. Looking across the ring, Cole looks at Kirov, yelling at him to stop wasting his time and focus on the match. Dollar forgotten, Kirov charges at Cole, the pair unleashing shots at each other as Dollar happily walks towards the announce table. Sharper is up on his feet and offers his hand to Dollar.

Knots: Oh no no no no!

Dollar: HI JOANNE!

Knots: God, someone get security.

Sharper: Johnny, bit of a surprise appearance here tonight. Usually, you only come here to support the members of "The Academy".

Knots: Who lost at Riding the Lightning.

Dollar: Yeah, well I have some unfinished business here tonight, so I thought I'd give some kind of appearance. And I couldn't resist spending time with my best friend, Joanne.

Knots: Oh yeah. That hasn't gotten old yet.

Dollar: No, but you sure have. Is that dye in your hair?

Knots: You're the one seeing things. Maybe you need glasses.

Dollar: Nah, you'd still look like you have no clue what you're doing.

Knots: Speaking of clues, why don't you get one and take a hike back to Connecticut.

Dollar: Man with that kind of material, it's surprising the A-show takes a decade to upload anything-

Sharper: While Dollar and Knots go at it, NME and Cole are going at it in the ring.

Knots: I only work when I am paid.

Dollar: Vegas is full of fat girls that say exactly the same thing, Joanne.

Sharper: Will you two shut up so we can call the match?

Knots and Dollar stop to look at Sharper for a moment.

Knots: Geez, Adam, what's you're problem?

Dollar: Yeah, I mean I know you're a good guy, Adam, but that's just rude. Interrupting a conversation like that.

Knots: Some people.

Dollar: Ah, I'm sure he's just having a bad day. Happens to everyone.

Sharper: Back to the match, Cole and NME trading blows in the ring.

Cole nails NME with an elbow and follows it up with a kick before whipping NME to the ropes. Kirov bounces off the ropes and comes charging back to be met with a discus clothesline by Cole, who hooks the leg but only manages a one count.

Sharper: Cole trying to put NME away early. Dollar, I need you to clarify something for me.

Knots: That shouldn't take too long.

Dollar: Alright.

Sharper: Back in your earlier edition of "Wall-Street", you said you would pay Cole a million dollars if he won this match.

Dollar: Yes I did.

Sharper: Do you plan on doing that if he wins?

Dollar: If he wins.

Cole pulls Kirov up, slamming him back down with a front suplex.

Sharper: How could you stand to part with so much money, Johnny? On a match?

Knots: Cause he's got a problem. One of many, I imagine.

Dollar: Ha.

Cole slaps on a camel clutch on Kirov, pulling hard, but NME quickly gets a foot on the ropes, forcing Cole to break the hold. As Cole gets to his feet, he drops a knee into the back of NME. As NME pulls himself to his feet to try and mount an offensive, Cole springs off one of the ropes to go for a spinning kick, only for NME to duck and nail him with a european uppercut. Cole staggers back and NME is on the attack, pushing him to the ropes to unload a series of punches and kicks, stomping Cole into the bottom of the turnbuckle before leaping up and delivering the Gun Packet dropkick to Cole's face.

Dollar: Ouch. That hurts.

Sharper: I doubt it would "just tickle".

Cole doesn't hear Dollar as NME grabs him by the neck and throws him out to the middle of the ring. Cole bounces off the mat, arching his back in pain, which allows NME to charge forward, nailing him with a kick to the spine. Cole falls to the ground as NME quickly covers

Cole kicks out!

Dollar: Close one.

Sharper: Cole coming close to the end there. Before this show ends tonight, ladies and gentlemen, we have a special main-event. Regan Street and Jake Starr will meet up. If either win by pin or submission, they receive a World Championship shot on this program in two weeks.

Knots: Got any money on that one, Dollar?

Dollar: What? You know I wouldn't gamble on my own show.

Knots: See! I told you he had no money on Cole! It's all a bluff!

Dollar: That's not gambling.

Knots: Then what is it?!

Dollar: Incentive.

Sharper: Hell of an incentive.

Dollar: Not when you're worth billions of dollars.

Knots: What? Then why the hell are you called "The Millionaire of SCW" instead of "Billionaire"?!

Dollar: I don't like to brag.

There is a moment of silence from the trio as NME delivers a spinebuster to Cole, roaring his russian phrases to the masses.

Dollar: What?!

Annoyed, NME shouts loudly in his native language, the audience yell back which only seems to annoy the talented rookie. Pulling Cole to his feet, Kirov rushes across the rope and charges with a big boot, only for Cole to take and swing his leg out in a leg sweep, which Kirov leaps up and evades, dropping down to a knee to nail Cole in the head, which Cole roles out of the way of. Jumping to his feet, Cole tries for "Sweet Chin Music" but NME ducks and grabs Cole, lifting him up for a chokeslam, but Cole slides out-

Sharper: Reversal after reversal!

Knots: It's too fast! Slow down, NME!

Sharper: Someone has to blink!

Cole slides out of the chokeslam and suddenly jumps off the ropes, nailing Kirov with the Cole Killer! NME slumps onto the mat, Siouxsie Blade slamming her hands on the mat in support. Cole quickly goes for the pin.

Unfortunately, for Cole, the three comes but is stopped as the referee notices NME's leg is on the rope. Angrily, Cole pulls NME to the middle of the ring and attempts the pin again.

3- Kickout by NME! The fans are cheering and shouting, while booing Cole at the same time.

Dollar: Cole's got a comeback going on.

Sharper: Both these men want to win, but the reasons could just very well be just to win.

Dollar: Nothing wrong with that.

Knots: Come on Cole!

Dollar (to Sharper): Does he ever tell a funny joke or something?

Sharper: Not in the years I've known him.

Dollar: Right.

Cole runs to the ropes and lands a moonsault, followed by a pin, though Kirov kicks out at two. The frustration can be seen on Cole's face, who yells at the ref about counting the pins. The official tells him not to push him, forcing Cole to focus back on the matter at hand, pulling Kirov off, and then being planted down by Kirov's "Scarlet Fever"!

Dollar: Okay, on a scale of one to ten, one being low and ten being how...how many of you felt that "11" DDT just now.

Sharper: Me.

Knots: Oh come on! That's nothing! Cole's still in this.

Sharper: He just spiked Cole's head into the mat!

Dollar: And now he's got the pin.

3-

Kirov pulls Cole off the mat, shaking his head at the referee.


Sharper: Oh no.

Knots: Oh yes.

Dollar: Oh Henry.

Dollar: What?

Knots: Oh what?

Dollar: Oh Henry. The chocolate bar. Anyone see the vending machine backstage?

Knots: Back to the match, I told you Cole was going to be okay!

Sharper: I think your definition of "Okay" and mine are very different.

Knots: Yeah, mine's right and yours is wrong and- what the hell are you doing?

Sharper turns his head to see Johnny Dollar unwrapping a "$500 chocolate bar" tossing the green wrapper with the money design into a trash receptacle under the announce table.

Dollar: I'm hungry.

He says, taking a bit out of the bar.

Dollar: Want some?

Knots: No! We're working here. (to Sharper) This guy's nuts!

Dollar: Caramel.

Knots: What?

Dollar: Not nuts. Caramel.

Knots: Crazy.

Sharper: They say when you're rich, you're not crazy. You're eccentric.

Dollar: I like that and watch out for Cole.

Dollar and Sharper duck out of the way as Cole is suddenly tossed over the table and right next to them, Kirov having slung him out of the ring and up the ramp to the commentating trio.

Dollar: Hi Cole. Chocolate?

Dollar asks, offering a piece to the barely conscious fighter. NME, on the other hand, approaches Dollar, grabbing him by the dress shirt and tossing him to the side.

Sharper: NME just threw Dollar away!

Knots: NME just moved up a page in my book!

Grabbing Cole, NME throws him into the barricade before sliding back into the ring and back outside to break the count. Pulling Cole back up, he rolls the man back into the ring before sliding back in. Getting to his feet, he holds his hands out, shouting in Russian again, he holds his right hand, flexing it strongly.

Sharper: Oh no...not this...

Knots: For once, I agree. Not to Cole! He has a future! Do it to Dollar.

Dollar: Someone say my name?

Sharper turns in time to see Dollar pulling himself back into his chair, dusting himself off.

Dollar: Anyone get the license plate of that truck that hit me? I think it was written in russian.

Sharper: That truck is about to take out Cole with the Snake Bite.

Dollar: Oh no. Come on Cole!

Cole gets to his feet and turns around just in time for NME to lunge, his head posed at the neck. Only for he misses the target and is spun around by Cole, using the momentum to land the "Last Falconry"! The fans are shocked, some to silence, as Cole hooks the leg and the official counts.

3!

The fans boo for the match as the bell rings. Dollar suddenly is up on his feet.

Dollar: YES!

Sharper: I don't believe it! He pulled it off! He's done it!

Knots: The streak is over! Go Cole!

Dollar turns around and leans under the table by Sharper's side, pulling out a metallic briefcase. Opening it up, he checks all the green bills inside it before closing it.

Knots: What the-

Dollar: Thanks for watching this for me, Adam.

Sharper: My pleasure.

Knots: YOU HAD THE MILLION DOLLARS HERE THE WHOLE TIME?

Sharper: Fraid so.

Knots: Why didn't you tell me?! I would have taken it!

Sharper: That's why I didn't tell you.

Knots: Are you kidding?! Cole wins a match and he gets a million dollars. I put up with that idiot Dollar for months and I get nothing.

Sharper: He gave you a quarter.

Dollar heads to the ring and slides into the ring as NME stirs. Angrily, he rolls out of the ring and walks up the ramp, ignoring the audience reactions as Blade helps Cole to his feet. Looking around, Cole turns around in time to see Johnny Dollar applauding the young man before lifting up the briefcase and opening it to Cole. Siouxsie's eyes go wide as she sees the money there, but Cole does not seem as impressed. More in pain than anything else. Closing the suitcase and with a spin of it, Johnny holds it out to Cole.

Sharper: Wow. Just like that, Cole is one million dollars richer.

Knots: There’s a night out. And just think, more starving children in Africa that Dollar could’ve helped and instead he gives it to someone who didn’t want it in the first place!

Slowly, Cole reaches out and takes the briefcase, his hands shaking as he does. Looking down at it, he looks back up at Dollar, who holds his arm out to Cole, encouraging the fans to applaud him, which they do, following Dollar's example. Gripping the briefcase tightly. Cole takes a moment to revel in the audience's appreciation, Blade holding him up a little.

Sharper: A hell of a match and a hell of a reward.

With a smile, Dollar turns back to Cole before nodding and then turning and exiting the ring. He drops down to the floor and smiles, straightening out his suit as he makes his way to the back. Cole just looks at the case before scoffing a bit as the scene fades to black.

Katie Steward vs. Hurse

 

I'm not cocky
I just love myself
Bitch!

As the lights in the arena begin to dim, the whimsical voice of Katie Steward is heard giggling as “Vanity” by Christina Aguilera plays on the speaker system. Plush ruby red carpet is rolled down the aisle way just as Katie Steward emerges from behind the curtains. Miss Steward is all decked out wearing her long white coat and a stunning diamond studded tiara rests on her beautiful blonde hair curls.

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

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

The camera’s view returns to Katie Steward as she stands at ringside fixing her coat. She looks up spreads her arms out wide and smiles the Famous smile for her glorious introduction as some of the fans have already begun to boo her and show how much they dislike and disrespect for her.

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

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

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

TJ Johnson smiles down at Katie, before bowing slightly. He takes the microphone and joins the announcing team for some unbiased journalism.

 

Sharper: “TJ Johnson is going to join us and you may, Jonathan, have to actually compete for who may hate Hurse more.”

 

Knots: “Clearly me. Hurse is now ruining Porno Lad’s career.”

 

Johnson puts on the headset and sits down.

 

Johnson: “This is a match that should’ve happened long ago. Make this match three months ago and Hurse would be gone forever.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, well, it’s Katie. So people probably just got sick of the screaming.”

 

"DECEPTICONS, Feast Your Eyes on Your New Leader"

Starscream's voice elicits a number of divergent reactions from the masses, be it cheers, boos, or exasperated sighs, they run the full gamut. Regardless of the response, at least everyone has some type of reaction to the arrival of Hurse. The classic Transformers quote quickly transitions into "No Handlebars" by the Flobots, but the crowd's tune remains the same. It isn't until the curtains rip apart and through the birth canal known as the entry way Hurse emerges, covered in so much baby oil one might think he did just crawl out of a womb, that the fans become a bit more vocal. The seizure inducing strobe lights flashing over his back do nothing but increase the migraines suffered by the crowd, and the flickering Christmas orbs lining the sleeves of Hurse's jacket further exacerbates their misery. The Sire of the Shit-Storm could care less what effect his flashy attire and flashy entrance has on the masses, as he moves like walking on clouds towards the ring. He pauses only briefly after hopping to the apron to swipe his feet like they were on a welcome mat and give the crowd a truly smug grimace. Between the ropes he slides, brushing off the flickering bulbs amassed across his jacket sleeves. He finally throws back his arms, allowing the jacket to slip off and fall carelessly to the canvas before back kicking and sending it flying into the turnbuckle. After disposing of his flashy wardrobe Hurse leaps to the nearest corner, turns and sits himself on the top rope.

 

Sharper: “Hurse here and ready to face Katie Steward. At Riding the Lightning, shocked us all as it seemed like Porno Lad and him were in cahoots.”

 

Knots: “It’s horrible. And where is Porno Lad? Maybe he realized the error of his ways and he bolted!”

 

Johnson: “Or he just knows that Katie will destroy him if he shows up. Or Gigi may come out and kick his ass too!”

 

The bell sounds and Katie just starts to walk towards Hurse, but Hurse puts his hands up. He then reaches into his pocket before revealing two ear plugs and smiling before placing them into his ears. He just smiles before then dropping down. Katie just rolls her eyes before turning to Hurse and starting to go after Hurse, but Hurse steps through the ropes and tells the referee to get her back. Katie just turns and lets out a frustrated scream. She backs up a bit and Hurse then steps into the ring again before Katie then starts to walk towards Hurse and Katie then nails Hurse with a forearm and then another, but Hurse steps through the ropes again. Katie nails him a few more times, and the referee again calls for the break. Hurse covers up as Katie backs away and screams again. Hurse smiles again before then “Everything About You” starts to play. The crowd roars and Katie just stops and turns to the entrance way before we see Porno Lad walk out from the back. Hurse however doesn’t hear the music and just sees Katie Steward turning and Hurse then runs over and Katie then turns and elbows him in the jaw. Hurse falls over and rolls over, going back to the corner before noticing Porno Lad walking down. He then smiles.

 

Sharper: “Well there’s Porno Lad. Hurse tried to take advantage-“

 

Knots: “The moron couldn’t even do that!”

 

Johnson: “Oh God! This is bad. Gigi! Maddy!”

 

Sharper: “Porno Lad slowly making his way down.”

 

Hurse starts to get up as Porno Lad walks down to the ring and Katie just watches Porno Lad before turning to Hurse and letting out another scream for TJ. TJ takes off the headset and starts to walk around the announce table and heading towards the ring, walking around to the part closest to Katie. Porno Lad looks down at the ring and looks at Hurse and Katie as they stand across the ring from one another. Hurse just continues to smile before Porno Lad then hops onto the apron. The official tells him to get off and Porno Lad smiles before just looking at the official and nailing him with a hard right. The crowd roars as Porno Lad then enters the ring. Katie Steward looks around before TJ Johnson enters the ring. Katie starts to look around.

 

Katie: “Gigi! Robin! Paris!”

 

Hurse and Porno Lad turn to each other and start to move towards Katie as the crowd roars.

 

Knots: “Oh God! I’m so conflicted right now! Katie could be destroyed tonight, but at the hands of Hurse and the brainwashed Porno Lad!”

 

The crowd roars before Porno Lad and Hurse start to move forward and “In the House, In a Heartbeat” starts to play throughout the arena. The crowd roars before starting to boo before Hurse and Porno Lad turn to the entrance way and Orlando Cruze starts to make his way down from the back. Katie lets out a sigh of relief.

 

Sharper: “Orlando Cruze on his way down? And you have to think he may have taken some exception to the comments of Hurse at Riding the Lightning. He was trying to get the Adrenaline Championship for himself!”

 

Knots: “What are you doing Orlando? Let her get destroyed and THEN destroy Hurse and Porno Lad!”

 

The crowd roars as the official stirs and Orlando Cruze runs down from the back and slides into the ring. He then gets up and looks at Porno Lad and Hurse before the official starts to stir. Orlando glances at the official before turning and going over to Porno Lad and Porno Lad quickly exits the ring. He then turns to Hurse and Orlando takes a swing. The camera angle makes it clear that he misses and Hurse just spins out. The officials calls for the bell and the crowd roars. Katie Steward then looks a bit confused before angry. She then turns to the official, but Johnson however notices the punch missed. He turns to the official and starts to go over and Orlando Cruze runs over and stomps the official. TJ turns to him before looking completely shocked and Orlando Cruze kicks TJ in the ribs and Porno Lad runs around the ring. Katie starts to exit as she realizes, but Porno Lad jumps from ringside next to her and nails her in the side of the head. Katie rolls in as Orlando Cruze tosses TJ and then Katie rolls through and gets up and Hurse runs over and spears her down. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Oh God!”

 

Knots: “No! Not another!”

 

Sharper: “Wait a minute…wait a damn minute….Orlando Cruze, Hurse…Porno Lad….”

 

Knots: “No! God damn it!”

 

Hurse then turns and looks at Katie Steward before he jumps up and high-fives Orlando Cruze. Porno Lad smiles as he runs around the ring before jumping out of the ring to the apron and climbing up to the top rope. He then looks at Katie as she rolls over and stirs and Porno Lad hits the 100% as the crowd ohs. He then steps forward and jumps up and high-fives Orlando too. The crowd starts to boo as Orlando Cruze rips off his t-shirt showing a t-shirt saying “SCW Sucks!” Porno Lad then takes off his t-shirt which reveals another that says “I hate this place.” Hurse just looks at Katie as he then throws his arms in the air. The crowd roars before many boo as they stand in the ring over Katie Steward.

 

Knots: “I don’t believe it! Katie Steward attacked got booed!”

 

Sharper: “All three, Cruze, Lad and Hurse, former IWC wrestlers. Was this some sort of grand scheme to create another power bloc?!”

 

Knots: “I don’t know, but Hurse has now taken two great talents and ruined them with this crap!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe it!”

 

The crowd continues to boo as Hurse, Orlando Cruze and Porno Lad exit the ring. They then start to make their way to the ring as Katie Steward rolls over in pain. The crowd continues to boo as Breakdown slowly fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


Breakdown returns and we see Orlando Cruze, Porno Lad and Hurse walking backstage. We then see Jim Dawson starting to head towards him.

 

Dawson: “Orlando…Porno Lad…Hurse…can I get a com-“

 

Orlando just shoves him out of the way and Jim Dawson falls over into the wall. Porno Lad just laughs at him as Hurse just ignores him and they continue to walk through the backstage area.


The scene changes as we see Katie Steward clearly unhappy as she and TJ Johnson start to make their way through the backstage area. Katie is favouring her ribs.

 

Katie: “I am sick of this! I am not everyone’s godly punching bag! I am a Goddess! I am a Queen!”

 

Johnson: “I know Katie…I know!”

 

Katie: “And where were my Brats?! Where were they?!”

 

Katie continues down the hallway as TJ Johnson turns the corner and stops and we then see a couple of production crew members moving a couple of what appear to be heavy storage crates. Katie just stops and looks shocked.

 

Johnson: “Oh God!”

 

The final crate is moved and the door then is pushed open as Gigi Steward steps out with Paris Dannon.

 

Gigi: “What the hell was that?”

 

Crewmember: “Someone put storage crates in front of your door.”

 

Katie: “Oh God…it was a clear attack-“

 

Johnson: “They attempted regicide! Oh God!”

 

Katie: “Oh no…not going to happen with me. They just started a war!”

 

Katie then storms into the locker room as TJ looks at them before continuing into the room.


The scene cuts backstage to show Marisa Condolesa standing with Thirteen outside of his locker room.

 

Condolesa: “I am here with Thirteen and at Riding the Lightning, your match against Shilo Valiant ended with you being choked out. Obviously, that didn’t go as you planned-“

 

Thirteen: “No it did not. And Shilo Valiant can have his pyrrhic victory. He can choke me out, but yet, it won’t silence me as he already has been. The fact is, it’s a minor boost to his esteem, but we both took something from one another in that match. Regardless, I already beat him straight up and while I would have loved to destroy him by choking him out in front of the world, I suppose I will have to live with that. But that does not mean I will be unable to potentially outdo him.”

 

Thirteen pauses and turns to Condolesa.

 

Thirteen: “In only a few weeks time, Taking Hold of the Flame will take place. And on that night, I will do everything that I can to walk away victorious. I mentioned several months ago that I would take my return to the World Championship when I felt it necessary. Well that time is here and at Taking Hold of the Flame, I will be one of the many that enter that match…the only difference…I know I have a good chance to win it. And if Shilo Valiant chooses to enter, then I’ll be sure to toss him out for good measure.”

 

Thirteen then turns and walks off. Condolesa watches him leave.


“Rescue Me” starts to play and the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. The crowd roars before we see a shot of Syren and then another of Josh Hudson.

 

Sharper: “Well Thirteen is making himself an official entry into the Taking Hold of the Flame battle royal. In a few moments, we will see the World Champion in action. She faces Josh Hudson, next!”

 

The scene then slowly fades to black.

Syren vs. Josh Hudson

 

“Love Me or Hate Me, It Doesn’t Make a Difference" can be heard throughout the arena, as it echoes through the PA system and then it breaks into “Time Bomb". Out from the back steps none other than Josh Hudson. He stops atop the entrance ramp, and looks out into the crowd and nods his head yes, and then begins to head down to the ring. He ignores the various cheers and outstretched hands and Hudson photos from the fans, walking down the ramp with a smirk on his face. He continues to slowly make his way to the ring, a look of determination on his face as he slides underneath the ropes. He climbs to the top rope and stares out into the crowd, smirking, before dropping down and sitting against the turnbuckle, waiting for the match to begin.

 

Sharper: “This will be an interesting match here to say the least. Josh Hudson has been on his game since returning and tonight, he’s going to be facing the World Champion.”

 

Knots: “Non-title! Non-title!”

 

Sharper: “Well Syren’s already been active and you have to wonder which of these two will be more distracted. Josh Hudson after Rachel’s comments earlier tonight or Syren knowing that still to come tonight, she will find out who she’ll face next Breakdown for the World Championship!”

 

Knots: “Come on Regan!”

 

Sharper: “Match hasn’t started yet.”

 

Knots: “I’m just getting ready.”

 

The lights dim slightly and a spotlight points down at the centre of the stage. “Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system as the screens come alive.

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy


After a few moments the curtains part as Syren makes her way on to the stage, stopping for a moment as she steps in to the spotlight and looking down at the ground in front of her before flicking her hair back and smiling at the cameras and the fans, soaking in the atmosphere and revelling in every moment, from the cheers from some fans to boos and jeers about taking her top off from others. She’s dressed in a pink ring-jacket with the SCW World Championship around her waist and stands on the stage for a moment in the spotlight before the curtains part and Ravyn Taylor makes her way out on to the stage as well. Syren and Ravyn stand back to back, each in matching ring-jackets and the duo pose proudly. After a few moments the duo begin go make their way down to the ring. Ravyn walks up the steps and Syren holds up her hand to some of the male fans at ringside dismissively before leaping up on to the apron, bending all the way down to go under the second rope and wiggling her ass as she does so to tease the fans. Once in the ring Syren climbs one turnbuckle while Ravyn climbs another with Ravyn pointing up at Syren who stands on the turnbuckles proudly, singing along with the music. She removes the title belt from around her waist and raises it up proudly, pointing at it and smiling. She jumps down and Ravyn and Syren kiss, teasing the fans still more before Ravyn leaves the ring as well. She then hands Ravyn the World Championship.

 

Knots: “See! Not for that! Ravyn Taylor can hold the World Championship. That’s more than Josh Hudson will have going for him in the near future.”

 

Sharper: “You never know. As mentioned, he’s been doing well. Regardless, this is not the first time we’ve see Syren tonight. A lot of running around with regards to Jake Starr, Brittany Lohan and Regan Street. And she was out earlier in that tag team match.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and made sure that things turned out as they should with the Next Level standing tall.”

 

Syren smiles and points to the World Championship as Josh Hudson rolls his eyes and walks around the ring. The bell sounds and Syren and Hudson move towards each other. They lunge at one another and go into a grapple. Syren however quickly turns into a side headlock. She smiles and Hudson starts to pull her back. Hudson pushes her off the ropes and Syren bounces off the ropes and Hudson shoulders her down. Hudson then turns and runs into the ropes. Syren rolls towards him. Hudson hops over and stops. Syren gets up and Hudson grabs her and takes her down with a side headlock. Syren goes for the headscissors. Hudson nips out. Both get up and Hudson quickly hits another headscissors. Syren goes again and gets the headscissors, but Hudson holds on and spins around. He then starts to get his legs under him and Syren holds on, standing on her hands. Hudson however smirks as he then kicks her hard in the chest. Syren lets go and falls over. She starts to get up and Hudson clubs her in the back and Syren falls to the ropes. She turns around and Hudson takes her down with an arm drag into an arm bar.

 

Knots: “What was that?! The great breast kick?!”

 

Sharper: “Hudson showing his ability to feel confident in trading holds and I guarantee that Syren hasn’t had someone get out of a headscissors like that before.”

 

Knots: “I don’t know of people that would WANT to get out of a Syren headscissors. I know there are people on the internet dying to pay for that!”

 

Hudson holds on as Syren starts to slowly pull herself up. Syren gets to her feet and Hudson wrenches the arm. He jerks on it and Syren winces. She flips forward and nips up and goes for an arm wrench of her own, but Hudson knees her in the ribs. He then whips her into the ropes. Syren bounces off the ropes and Syren bounces off. Hudson goes to lift her up, but Syren spins through and lands behind him. Syren then jumps up and hits a dropkick. Hudson falls to the ropes. Syren runs after him and Hudson turns and goes for a back drop, but Syren spins through and lands on the apron. Hudson turns around and Syren blocks a hard right and hits a guillotine drop. Hudson stumbles back and Syren slides in. Hudson turns to her up and Syren runs over and hits a flying headscissors. Hudson rolls through. He gets up and turns around and Syren kicks him in the ribs and snapmares him down before dropkicking him in the back of the head.

 

Sharper: “Syren with the quick snapmare and then the dropkick.”

 

Knots: “She may not be able to outwrestle Josh Hudson, but she can out-agile him!”

 

Syren quickly throws him down and goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Oh! What a suplex! Overhead!”

 

Knots: “Ah crap!”

 

Sharper: “Syren thrown across the ring. She’s back up, but so is Hudson!”

 

Hudson turns to Syren and Syren is lifted up onto his shoulders and Hudson hits a Samoan drop. He pulls back on the leg.

Hudson gets up and Syren hits a dropkick. Hudson pops back up and Syren kicks him in the ribs and hits a DDT. She follows up with a pin.

Hudson kicks out. Syren slowly gets up as Hudson slowly rolls away only for Syren to jump up and hit a discus leg drop. She rolls over and gets up and Hudson stirs again. Syren grabs him and drags him up before hitting a neckbreaker. Syren then turns and goes over to the ropes. She exits to the apron and goes to the corner. She starts to climb up to the top rope and Hudson pops up before turning and running over and jumping up and grabbing Syren and arm dragging her off the top rope. Syren rolls through as the crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “From the top, Hudson sends Syren crashing to the mat!”

 

Knots: “Oh! Syren didn’t hear Ravyn on that one! I wish she had!”

 

Syren rolls over, holding her head and neck and Hudson watches her. She then starts to get up and Hudson grabs her and throws her back with a release German suplex. Syren lands on her stomach and rolls over and starts to stir again. Hudson gets up and waits as Syren gets up and Hudson hoists her up onto his shoulders. The crowd roars. Ravyn hops onto the apron, but the official heads over. Hudson just ignores Ravyn though and goes to lift him up for the Kingdom Come, but Syren turns and pulls Hudson down and counters with the Total Makeover! The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Oh what a counter!”

 

Knots: “Hot damn! Into the Total Makeover!”

 

Ravyn hops off immediately seeing this and the official backs away before Syren goes for the pin.

The crowd boos as Syren rolls off of Josh Hudson. She then takes a few moments and catches her breath before getting up. Ravyn Taylor hops onto the apron and enters into the ring before going over to Syren and raising her arm. The crowd boos as Syren then is handed her World Championship by Ravyn. Syren takes it and holds it over her head.

 

Knots: “Best Women’s Wrestler in the World!”

 

Sharper: “She may be. A hell of a win against Josh Hudson here tonight!”

 

The crowd continues to boo as Syren celebrates. Hudson stirs.


“Rescue Me” starts to play. The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen and we see a shot of Regan Street vs. Jake Starr come up on the screen.

 

Sharper: “Plenty to come here tonight. Our new main event, announced earlier, Regan Street and Jake Starr will meet tonight. If they win  by pinfall or submission, they face the World Champion for the title, next Breakdown! That match is still to come!”

 

The scene fades to black.

The scene cuts backstage to show Rachel Foxx in her locker room with Jessica Rose. She just smiles as she looks up.

 

Rachel: “A good night tonight Jessica. A very good one.”

 

Rose: “I think it could be better.”

 

Rachel: “Oh?”

 

Rose: “A World Championship shot for you.”

 

Rachel: “That will come soon enough. I can’t let my Belles have all the fun. But at least I know that Hudson can’t stake claim to anything I hope for…otherwise, next time, I won’t hesitate. Much like I didn’t against Sammy earlier or Ebdon on Night Two.”

 

Rose: “You do have Christy and Hudson coming after you.”

 

Rachel: “Let them…they don’t have…heh…the balls to deal with me.”

 

Rachel just smiles as she lets out a sinister chuckle as we cut back to ringside.


NECRO!

The audience rise to their feet in cheers as a woman screams the word "NECRO!"! The masses shout as "Sin with A Grin" by Shinedown is heard. A growing fog forms near the entryway of the ramp as a spotlight shines down on the ramp

Take a good look at agony
Force fed pass down
Time release
I'm inspired to find the liar
Black list X on the back
Of a soulfull man
I've got way's you understand
Look left, look right, but I'm
Behind you
 
As the song advises the masses to look left and right, from the fog rises Shilo Valiant, his mask the ever-smile of the jester.
 
I never noticed, until I focused
On everything you did, you said,
You lit the fuse inside my head
 
At those words, Valiant slowly locks his arms in the X pattern of "Necro" before thrusting his right hand up to the spotlight, locking up at the raised palm that faces him. As he does, a shower of red sparks rains down upon him, seemingly from the spotlight. Marina Trent walk out with him. Amidst the shower of sparks the chorus plays:
 
Thank you for reminding me
Of why I'm sick inside
Thank you for the venom, did
You think it would paralyze?
 
Valiant slowly lowers his arm, the colors of his mask glowing amidst the red of the rain and white of the spotlights
 
These scars I scratch, I tear
Are there under my skin
Where you've always been
Thank you for reminding me,
To sin with a grin
 
The eternally smiling one slowly walks down the ramp, the spotlight following him and Marina. He walks around the ring and up the short stairs, climbing under the middle-rope to enter the ring. Standing within its center, the spotlight still cast on him, Shilo Valiant slowly raises his arm once more to the source, his spotlight, looking up at it as his fingers reach for it.
 
SIN WITH A GRIN!
 
He continues to look at the spotlight as Marina Trent goes over to the corner and is handed a microphone. She takes it and walks back into the spotlight, joining Shilo. The crowd roars as Marina looks around.

 

Marina: “I suppose that some people may be disappointed that we are not World Tag Team Champions right now. And to be fair, we’re not too pleased by that either. But at least we can say that the Next Level gave us a fair fight. Next time though…we’ll make sure we’re on the winning end of things. And while our goals for the World Tag Team Championships are hardly over, it seems as though we need to turn our attention to other matters and that is why Shilo is here…”

 

Marina turns to Shilo as Shilo just looks out at the crowd.

 

Marina: “See, earlier tonight, someone decided that they can just take the hint. At Riding the Lightning, Shilo and Thirteen took part in a war where the point was the choke out their opponent. That is indeed what happened when Shilo made Thirteen lose consciousness…It’s over. And should you want to make this an issue again, Shilo is more than happy to hand you another loss. But you have tried to humiliate him. You have tried to force him to talk. You have attempt to cost us opportunities. Your time has passed and we are moving on. What is Shilo moving on to…that is easier to explain as it is simply obvious.

 

Marina smiles.

 

Marina: “See Thirteen, you may get a chance to try and do what you hope to do. It’s a shame you will fail again when Shilo Valiant is standing at the end of the Taking Hold of the Flame battle royal as the victor and with the ticket punched for the main event at Rise to Greatness X. See, he has made that match more entertaining each and every year and it will only be a symbol that he has returned to his former form by main eventing Rise to Greatness for the third consecutive time!”

 

The crowd roars. Marina turns to Shilo.

 

Marina: “And he is going to do anything he can to get there. Consider this his formal entry. Shilo Valiant will be part of the field at Taking Hold of the Flame!”

 

The crowd cheers as Marina Trent pauses and looks around before then looking down and clearing her throat.

 

Marina: “As for me, don’t worry…I’m not going to be there. But Christian…you mention you’re looking for challenges…be careful what you ask for.”

 

Marina then pauses before turning to Shilo.

 

Marina: “NECRO!”

 

The crowd cheers as “Sin With a Grin” plays throughout the arena. Marina turns and hands off the microphone.

 

Sharper: “Well Shilo is announcing he’s in Taking Hold of the Flame, but I’m surprised Marina’s not in.”

 

Knots: “She’s looking at the US Championship! I’m up for that!”

 

Sharper: “Could prove to be a big night for Eternal if either of those events take place!”

 

Marina Trent exits out of the ring and Shilo does as well. The two start to make their way to the back as we cut backstage.


“Rescue Me” starts to play as we then see a shot of Jake Starr walking throughout the backstage area.

 

Sharper: “Well here we go. Jake Starr on his way to the ring for the second time tonight.”

 

Knots: “Third time if you consider the start of the show.”

 

Sharper: “And he’ll face Regan Street who has seemingly had his number as of late…”

 

The scene changes to show Regan Street walking through the backstage area. She has the SCW Women’s Championship belt over her shoulder. She continues down the hallway before she slows down and we see Harmony Fisher looking at her. Regan just stops.

 

Sharper: “And there’s Regan…”

 

Knots: “And there’s Harmony!”

 

Harmony Fisher turns to her and just looks at the Women’s Championship.

 

Harmony: “I’d say good luck, but I almost want you to fail after all that crap earlier this year….”

 

Regan just glares at her. Harmony starts to walk off, but stops.

 

Harmony: “And maybe one day you’ll defend your title…”

 

Harmony then starts to walk off as Regan glares at her before just shaking her head and continuing down the hallway.

 

Knots: “What a bitch!”

 

Sharper: “Regan Street versus Jake Starr…is next.”

 

The scene fades to black.


COMMERCIAL:


Regan Street vs. Jake Starr

 

The lights in the arena slowly dim, culminating in a sea of darkness. A male voice is heard over the PA system. His diction is firm, and fierce, as if trying to "rally the troops," or give a "pep talk" to someone, and his message is clear...

Rise up and take the power back,
It's time the fat cats had a heart attack,
You know that their time's coming to an end,
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend!

After he finishes, there is a massive explosion of pyro from the stage. "Uprising" by Muse begins to emanate from the speaker system, and laser beams begin to fire around the arena. As the song reaches the opening verse, two spotlights drop onto the entry way where Jake Starr stands, back to the crowd, head looking down, and his fist pointed straight to the heavens. His arm is tense and shaking. He slowly turns his fist so it's now pointing "backward," and as he lowers it down, bending at the elbow, he spins his body around, and trusts his fist forward, directed straight toward the ring, to a huge roar from the audience.

Along with the thrusting of his arm, he begins walking toward the ring. His path is slow and steady, pausing several times to take in to account the fans holding their hands up as a sign they stand behind the Social Misfit cause. As the second chorus kicks in, Jake reaches the apron of the ring.

They will not force us,
They will stop degrading us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious
So come on

As the chorus plays, Jake climbs up onto the apron. He looks in all four directions, including behind him. As the chorus ends, and the "Hey" chants come over the loud speaker, the crowd is illuminated by bright white lights, and with each chant, thrust their fists skyward. Several fans have signs in the shape of the infamous "Misfit Revolution" fist.

Jake nods, and with one final show of leadership to the "followers" of the Social Misfit cause, he thrusts his fists skyward one last time, which ignites one final explosion of pyro from each of the four ring posts.

He then walks over to the turnbuckle and climbs up onto the second turnbuckle of one of the corners, and mouths the words, "You're looking at the best in the fucking world," and then points out to the crowd saying, "Nobody will stop me... Not in MY HOUSE!" Jake then raises his fist in the air again, pointing at it, and screams, "THIS IS WHO I AM!"

 

Sharper: “The second time we’ve seen Jake Starr in action tonight. And you know, he’s got to be wondering about facing a fresh Regan Street, but at the same time, he knows the opportunity before him.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, well, he’s going to face off a pissed off Hellcat and oh boy.”

 

The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is seen with a roar. Fireworks blast off the entrance as “Gasoline” by Porcelain Black plays throughout the arena. The beautiful and arrogant Regan Street walks out in her cat suit and ensemble. She stands at the entrance way looking out into the crowd as they shower her with a mix cheers, boos and cat calls no pun intended. Regan looks around and then smirks walking to the ring determined for her next match. She starts walking toward the ring blowing off the fans and rolling her eyes, shaking her head. Street gets to the apron and hops up to the ring; she slowly walks walks through the ropes showing off a little before entering the ring. Once inside the ring Regan goes to the corner, climbing it and posing in her own confident way. She drops down and goes to the middle of the ring where she drops her entrance attire. Regan cart wheels and then ruffles her hair as she waits for the start of the match.

 

Sharper: “At least she’s out here alone.”

 

Knots: “What does that mean?”

 

Sharper: “What the hell do you think? Regan Street has a lot of people she can tap on the shoulder to come out here and give her the edge?!”

 

Knots: “She took Jake Starr fair and square on Night One, didn’t she?”

 

Sharper: “Yeah, but Regan Street wasn’t half rabid that night!”

 

The bell sounds and Regan Street runs at Starr. Starr moves out of the way as Regan ends up in the corner. Starr turns and nails her with a hard right and then a chop and then another. The crowd woos with each and Starr kicks Regan in the ribs. He then goes to whip her across, but Starr stops him before turning him around and sending her back into the corner, chest first. Starr then rolls her up with a school boy.

Regan kicks out. Both get up and Starr kicks her in the ribs. He then locks in a side headlock. Regan pulls him back to the ropes and fires her across. Regan steps forward and Starr hits a jumping shoulder tackle. The crowd roars and Regan rolls out of the ring after the impact. She starts to walk around the ring, clearly unhappy.

 

Sharper: “Regan frustrated to say the least. You have to wonder if this is about the World Championship or getting a shot at Lohan at Taking Hold of the Flame.”

 

Knots: “Or both. Meanwhile with Jake, it’s the World Title. It always is about the World Title.”

 

Regan walks around and Starr watches her before she turns and slides into the ring. She gets up and runs at Starr and Starr quickly ducks a clothesline. She turns around and Starr kicks her in the ribs and hits a vertical suplex into a float over pin.

Regan kicks out. She rolls over and gets up. Starr grabs her and shoves her into the ropes. He then fires her off. Regan bounces off the ropes and Starr goes for a clothesline. Street ducks and bounces off the other side and Starr turns only for Regan to hit a running spinning heel kick. The crowd ohs and boos. Starr gets back up and Regan kicks him in the ribs and hits a running facebuster before getting up. She then exits to the apron.

 

Sharper: “Regan quickly hits a series of moves. Down goes Jake Starr. And now the former World Champion climbs to the top rope, looking to take out the other former World Champion.”

 

Knots: “Remember! Cats always land on their feet!”

 

Starr rolls over and gets up and Regan climbs to the top rope. Starr turns and Regan dives off and hits a crossbody into a pin.

Regan kicks out. She rolls over and grabs at the ropes. She starts to pull herself up. Starr goes over and grabs Regan. Regan holds onto the ropes and keeps holding on before the referee comes over and calls for the break. Regan however hits a mule kick with the official next to her. Starr staggers back and Regan then turns and runs after him and hits a running bulldog. The crowd ohs and boos.

 

Sharper: “Regan taking advantage of the official’s position-“

 

Knots: “She did not!”

 

Sharper: “Please!”

 

Knots: “Starr was just acting! Like Hurse earlier! That rat bastard!”

 

Regan turns and hits a leg drop to the face of Starr as he rolls over. She gets up and hits another and then another. The crowd boos. She turns and hooks the leg.

Starr gets his shoulder up. Regan looks up and snaps at the official. She then grabs Starr and slowly drags him up. She knees him in the chest. She then turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and Starr lifts her up and counters with a huge flapjack. The crowd ohs and Regan rolls over. Starr rolls over slowly and Regan gets to the ropes. The crowd starts to cheer for Jake Starr before we then see Brittany Lohan walk out from the back. Typhoid Mary is with her as well. The crowd roars as Lohan starts to make her way to the ring.

 

Knots: “Oh God damn it!”

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan on her way to the ring and you have to wonder what she’s thinking about this all. She could face one of these two depending on whether they win tonight and then next Breakdown?”

 

Knots: “Oh God…”

 

Lohan continues to the ring and Regan Street starts to get up. Starr turns to Lohan and then suddenly turns to Regan, but Regan kicks him in the ribs and hits a mat slam. The crowd ohs. Regan then turns and looks at Lohan as Lohan starts to get to the ring and she just smirks as she looks into the ring. Regan then looks at Starr before turning and looking at Lohan with Mary. Regan then grabs Starr and starts to lift him up before turning and going to whip him into the corner. Starr hits the corner and Regan suddenly turns and runs to the ropes and goes for a diving vaulting press onto Lohan, but Lohan catches her. She then just throws her down as the crowd ohs. The referee turns and warns Lohan, but Lohan just grabs Regan and shakes her head before looking at her and rolling her into the ring. She then slides in and the official goes to stop her, but Lohan just shoves him down. Regan starts to stir.

 

Sharper: “Oh no! Lohan caught Regan and that was what Lohan needed to get involved!”

 

Knots: “She lured her into attacking her! And oh no!”

 

Sharper: “The referee is down!”

 

The referee looks up at Lohan as Lohan then grabs Street and lifts her up before spearing her into Starr. The crowd ohs and some cheer, while other boo. The referee then calls for the bell. Regan falls back and Lohan just shoves her down. Starr falls over, wincing and starts to grab at the ropes.

 

Sharper: “I think the official has thrown this out.”

 

Knots: “So who gets it?”

 

Sharper: “No one I think. It was supposed to be by pinfall or submission!”

 

The crowd roars as Lohan then turns and grabs Regan before leaning over her. She shoves her back and Lohan smirks before stomping her in the head. Regan rolls over. We then see Syren come out from the back with David Helms and the two of them start to head down to the ring. Lohan just turns and smirks before grabbing Regan and turning and throwing her forward. Regan falls before the ropes as Lohan stands near Starr. Starr starts to pull himself up before turning to Lohan. They share some words as Helms grabs Regan and rolls her out of the ring. Syren just looks at Lohan as Starr and Lohan continue to share some words. Syren keeps watching as the crowd roars. The scene then slowly fades to black…
