“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.

MAIN SHOW:

LAST WEEK:

We open up with a shot of the ring. We then see split-screen shows of Lexi von Aaron and Asher Hayes, Regan Street and Katie Steward, Ravyn Taylor and Kayla Jones, and Blake Mason and Brett Sinclaire walking to the ring.

Sharper: “And those are your four teams. Four unique, never before seen teams, all competing for a World Tag Team Championship match! And it’s a table match!”

We then see shots of Lexi von Aaron getting powerslammed through a table before showing Katie Steward getting northern lights suplexed through the table. This is followed by a shot of Sinclaire dropkicking Asher Hayes off the apron through a table. We then see shots of Ravyn Taylor getting up in the ring before we see Dante McCaffery, Merrick Wiseman and Vixen Cain running to the ring. This is followed by showing Wiseman hitting the Sideswipe Gavel on Ravyn Taylor, planting her through the table.

Sharper: “Damn it! Cain, Wiseman and Dante striking when everyone else is down or occupied.”

Knots: “Blake Mason is fine with it. Kayla is down. Ravyn through the table…”

Sharper: “The referee is waiving it off. Not an offensive maneuver by someone in the match. A great call! But still, the damage has been done.”

We then see Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine running down to the ring. Dante exits through the crowd as Wiseman and Cain exit. Regan starts to chirp at Amy.

Regan: “Hey Amy! Come help me. I’ll can Katie and we can go for the titles! Or is the Snow Bitch that good of a friend now?!”

We see shots of Amy and Selena reacting to this. The match continues as we see Sinclaire getting superplexed by Kayla Jones. This is followed by Regan standing on the top rope. Bree hops on the apron stopping her. Mikaela is shown walking around the ring, unseen from last week. Blake then press slams Regan off the top rope through a table.

Sharper: “And Regan’s out!”

Knots: “Bree got up and stopped. She tried to help Blake!”

We then see Scott Burnside setting up a couple of tables on the floor. Blake Mason has Kayla and Ravyn gets up and knocks them off the corner and through the tables with the Yakuza Kick. Ravyn Taylor falls to the mat.

Phillips: “Here are your winners, Kayla Jones and Ravyn Taylor!”

Sharper: “And even with Cain, Wiseman and Dante attacking her, she wins this.”

Knots: “They helped her in some ways. Everyone forgot about her until Blake realized. Well…Bree realized.”

Sharper: “And now, Ravyn Taylor and Kayla Jones have a World Tag Team Championship match awaiting them.”

Knots: “Talk about a hell of a team.”

Sharper: “What a night here in Boise. New TV Champion. New Tag Team Championship number one contenders.”

We then see Ravyn Taylor slowly getting up in the ring in pain as the recap comes to an end.

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

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

We see a shot of Dylan Howell clutching the Adrenaline Championship before showing Tommy Valentine hitting James Evans with the Griever’s Bane. We see a shot of Rachel Foxx going to hit Syren with a sledgehammer before showing Syren ducking and her hitting Adam Sharper instead before we follow up with a shot of Syren celebrating with the SCW World Championship at Rise to Greatness.

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

A shot of Red Rayne spewing the Bloodbath into the eyes of Christy Matthews is shown before showing Dawn Lohan standing over Selena Frost. We then see Eli D’Angelo hitting the Salvation on Ace Marshall.

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

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

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

We then see a shot of Merrick Wiseman handcuffing Ravyn Taylor before showing Adrenaline Rush in the ring. Shots of Kennedy Street standing in the middle of the ring posing, followed by Katie Steward posing and AJ Helms and Shaun Cruze walking to the ring are shown. This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping Rachel Foxx with the Catnap inside Tactical Warfare before showing Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster posing, followed by a shot of Tyler Tucker going for the Caffeine Crash before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.

The scene then cuts to inside the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California where pyro ignites either side of the stage and makes its way towards the center. The crowd explodes with electricity with the cameras catching glimpses of all in attendance tonight. Various signs are on full display for their favorite superstars.  The camera continues to pan the crowd before we cut to ringside and the SCW announce table to see Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at ringside.

Sharper: “Welcome to Oakland as Breakdown rolls in. We’re past Fatal Fortunes and on the road to Taking Hold of the Flame. Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters here at ringside and tonight, we’ve got a big main event.”

Winters: “As Syren looks to find out who attacked her, she’ll face Christy Matthews here tonight, in our main event.”

Sharper: “Former Infamous members going at it. Along with that, Bree Lancaster will face Donovan Kayl, just days before Blake Mason faces Simon Lyman at Supreme Saturday. A lot going on here tonight.”

The opening to "Out of the Black" hits the PA system, drawing boos from the audience. The lights flash with every sound of the drum. Once the bass hits and the song kicks into gear, Dante McCaffery emerges from the curtains wearing a suit. The crowd boos loudly. Dante McCaffery looks around the building, with his nose turned up. He then starts to slowly walk to the ring.

Sharper: “And we kick things off with Dante McCaffery who has made a deal with Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman to take out Ravyn Taylor.”

Winters: “They ended up helping her inadvertently to a World Tag Title Shot. But Dante is walking out in PUNK HAZARD country. It’s like going to Montreal now if you’re Jeffrey Loria!”

Dante continues on his way to the ring. We see someone holding up a PUNK HAZARD sign in the crowd. We cut back to Dante before he walks up the steel steps and then enters the ring. He walks across the ring and goes over to the corner and asks for a microphone. Jason Phillips hands him one and he turns back to the middle of the ring. Dante McCaffery stands in the middle of the ring and looks around. The crowd boos loudly as the music fades out. Dante looks around. The boos continue. The camera focuses on Dante face as he looks around, little emotion on his face. The boos continue before Dante McCaffery starts to speak.

Dante: “I understand we’re at the home base of a dead institution, but there are important things to clarify.”

The crowd boos some more.

Dante: “Much like PUNK HAZARD is done, so is any semblance of Ravyn Taylor’s intellectual dominance. And while some may be quick to point out that desperate men do desperate things, but there is nothing desperate here. It was merely the realization of opportunity and mutual benefit.”

Dante pauses as the crowd boos.

Dante: “Because while it should be obvious why I would request their assistance to take Ravyn Taylor down a few pegs and win our chessmatch…oh no, you merely got check at Retribution….Why I would offer to help with Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman’s issues, that’s a bit of a different story and it’s simple.”

Dante pauses as he smirks slightly.

Dante: “I don’t care. I don’t care about Amy Chastaine. I don’t care about Selena Frost. I don’t care about the World Title right now. I don’t care about any of that. It’s easy to come to an agreement when motivations do not clash and here, they wanted to make sure that I would do something for them. I scratch their back, they scratch mine. Well, I gave Amy Chastaine a note that she’s not that well liked and Ravyn….the real game begins now. So I hope you’re looking at Retribution and you’re thinking about how great of a night that was, but this is not going to end well for you and this Saturday at Supreme Saturday…”

Dante smirks.

Dante: “As I show why PUNK HAZARD just hampered what I am capable of in San Jose…See, this Saturday, I am going to walk to this ring with Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman. Two individuals who have shown Ravyn Taylor to not only be the fool, but she has never recovered. And add Amy Chastaine and Selena Frost, with the three of us, our deal will be very quickly met. I will do whatever I need to get what I want and in this case, the cost….it falls on Amy and Selena-“

The crowd roars as we see Amy Chastaine and Selena Frost running down from the back. Amy is a bit quicker before sliding into the ring. Selena rolls in after and Dante turns and Amy kicks him in the ribs. The crowd roars. She nails him with a hard right and Selena gets up too. She kicks Dante and Amy nails him again and he falls down and rolls to the floor. He gets up and backs away, looking up at the ring. Selena looks around as Amy watches Dante. Dante starts to walk around the ring as Selena turns and grabs the microphone. Dante goes back to the entrance way, holding his ribs a bit and rubbing his jaw.

Selena: “Tell Vixen and Merrick, wherever they’re hiding, Amy and I are going to remind them what happens when you come after us!”

Selena drops the microphone. The crowd cheers. “What I Believe” starts to play. Selena watches Dante as Amy Chastaine steps onto the bottom rope and calls Dante back into the ring. Dante just looks into the ring and starts to back up.

Sharper: “Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine coming down. They wanted to get their hands on vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman last week. They didn’t. But tonight, a message sent to Dante McCaffery.”

Winters: “Cain and Wiseman I hope are watching.”

Sharper: “I don’t know if they’re here yet?! They’re not booked.”

Winters: “Selena and Amy both riled up. Amy wants Dante to come into the ring and I don’t blame her. She took the brunt of Dante’s attack last week!”

Amy keeps motioning to Dante as Dante continues to back away. Selena watches him too as we then cut away.

We cut backstage to see Blake Mason talking to Scott Burnside backstage.

???: “What the hell was that last week?”

Blake turns and motions to Scott Burnside. He runs off.

Blake: “Regan…chill.”

Regan: “I thought we were cool and she pulls that.”

Blake: “And you’re telling me Miks wouldn’t have done the same.”

Regan: “Not the point.”

Blake: “Exactly the point.”

Regan: “Don’t make me knock you out here.”

Blake: “And don’t make me lobby some councillors in California to give your husband a hard time with his wrestling school. I heard they had some issues.”

Regan: “Do you really want to be playing this game.”

Blake: “Not a game. Just like it isn’t for you. A title shot was on the line. Bree saw a moment to make a difference. She did. If Mikaela wasn’t going to do the same, I wonder if you two have gotten soft. But Regan…we’re taking what we want now. Just like you are. And in fact…between you and I….I’m the one facing Simon Lyman this Saturday. You’ve got Konrad Raab. I think one of us is doing better there.”

Regan just scoffs and turns away, almost laughing.

Blake: “Save the lecture.”

Blake then turns and walks off.

Regan: “Blake!”

Blake stops and turns around.

Regan: “Tell Breezy…yeah, I saw that article…I’ll remember it.”

Blake: “Didn’t doubt you would.”

Blake turns around again.

Regan: “Blake!”

Blake slowly turns.

Blake: “Wh-“

Regan then blasts Blake Mason with a hard right. The crowd ohs and cheers. Blake falls to the ground.

Regan: “Now I feel better….and I don’t do lectures. Get enough for Mikaela’s fossilized boyfriend.”

Regan turns and walks off.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see Dante McCaffery walking through the backstage area with purpose. He just shakes his head, stretching his neck a bit, clearly unhappy. He heads over to the back entrance of the building and storms through it. We then see him walk over to a sedan waiting for him. He then opens the passenger side door and steps inside.

Female voice: “This early?”

Dante: “Get the hell out of here.”

Dante slams the door. The car then starts to drive off as the crowd boos a bit. The camera continues to film the outside for a few moments longer.

Kara Abheri vs. Gigi Steward

The sound of a tiger roaring is heard in the darkened arena, then Katy Perry's “Roar” begins as light blue and sea green spotlights light up the darkness and Kara Abheri emerges from behind the curtain, smile and arms wide. She's in her trademark Princess Jasmine inspired Harem girl attire. The Tiny Tussler is back home in front of the crowd. The raven haired beauty bounces down the ramp, slapping hands and hugging fans who call out to her.

Phillips: “The following match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, currently residing in New Orleans, Louisiana, she is the Paragon of Wrestling.... Kara Abheri!!”

Kara circles the ring, greeting as many fans as she can before bouncing up onto the apron. She enters through the bottom and middle ropes and then ascends the turnbuckles, waving to the crowd. As the cheers get louder, Kara backflips off the turnbuckle and lands a few feet from center-ring. She bows to her fans and the words "Thank you" can be read on her lips.

“And you're gonna hear me roooaaarr!!”

The tiger's roar is played one last time as the music fades out while Kara turns towards the ramp to await her opponent.

Sharper: “Should be a solid match up here. Kara Abheri is coming off a huge win at the first installment of Fatal Fortunes two weeks ago against Gable Winchester. She's had some trouble, maybe she's starting to get her feet under her.

Winters: “Maybe so, but she'll have to be vigilant against Gigi Steward, the Stewards aren't exactly known for playing by the book.”

“Real Wild Child” plays throughout the arena as the fans gets excited and stand on their feet cheer. Gigi Steward steps out behind the curtain and walks onto the stage in her wrestling gear and wearing her Team Desire hooded. She strikes a pose on the stage and holds her hand showing off a bedazzled skeleton hand jewelry and she makes a fist with it.

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Los Angeles, the Goddess Apprentice... Gigi Steward!

Gigi gives a cold blooded stare at the wrestling getting herself psyche. She then marches onward to the ring. She takes off her jacket and drops it on the aisle for ring crew to pick it up. She walks around the ring and marches up the ring steps and enters the ring. She shouts at the crowd and throws her arms up in the air just trying to get a reaction for them. Gigi smirks at the main camera and retreats to her corner.

Sharper: “Steward coming out solo tonight, that could be a good sign for Abheri.”

Winters: “Don't rule anything out, you never know if she has backup waiting in the wings.”

Sharper: “With that group, you have a point there.”

The bell sounds. Gigi gives Kara a smug smirk as they circle each other a bit. Kara just shakes her head and the two lock up. They struggle for leverage a few moments, before Gigi suddenly drops to her knees, taking Kara off balance. Kara lets go, and while Gigi is down, she lunges forward and grabs Kara by both legs and pulls, dropping Kara to the mat on her back. Gigi gets up and immediately stomps Kara's knee before she can try to get up. Kara sees the second stomp coning and rolls away, then hops up to her feet. Gigi rushes her, but Kara sidesteps her, and grabs Gigi's arm as she passes by, yanking her back towards her and then takes Gigi down with an arm drag. With quickness, Kara then springboards off the ropes and lands a moonsault before Gigi can get up. She flips Gigi over to her back and hooks a leg.

1!

Gigi shoves Kara off right before the two. Both women scramble to their feet and face off in the middle of the ring. The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Fast paced start to this bout. These two are the same height, likely close in weight, they are as about as evenly matched as it gets.”

Winters: “Well, you have Abheri who is a flyer, and then you have Gigi Steward who is more of a scrapper. Even physically, worlds apart stylistically.”

Sharper: “It may come down to who adapts to the other's game better.”

Gigi advances first, grabbing Kara's arm and sending her across the ring. On the rebound Gigi puts a boot up and catches Kara right in the gut. Se hunches over, wincing. Gigi grabs Kara by the head, turns, and drops her down hard with a bulldog. Gigi then jumps up and lands a leg drop across Kara's back. Dropping down, she shoves Kara over to her her back and makes a cover.

Kara shoots her shoulder up. Gigi gets to her feet, undaunted, and grabs Kara's arm to pull her up. Once on her feet, Kara snaps her arm backwards out of Gigi's grip. She then takes a step backwards before jumping and spinning with a spinning heel kick right to Gigi's jaw. Gigi staggers backwards. Kara runs over and nails Gigi with an enzuigiri. Gigi goes down to the mat. The crowd cheers. Kara looks around, wondering what she can do next.

Sharper: “Abheri with some fire under her, looking for something to put Steward away.”

Winters: “She better think of something quick, before Gigi recovers. Look, she's getting up!”

Kara had started climbing the turnbuckle, but Gigi is up and right behind her. Kara doesn't know, and when she turns around, before she can plant her feet on the middle ropes, Gigi hops up onto the bottom rope, grabs Kara around the waist and throws her backwards with a belly to belly suplex from the ropes! The crowd oohs and Kara lands hard. Gigi hops down and runs over to make a cover.

Winters: “See? Took too long.”

Kara kicks out. Gigi sits up and beats the mat with her fists, angry. Kara rolls away from her, and close to the ropes. She uses the ropes to pull herself up. Gigi has gotten back up, and Kara seems to have learned from waiting too long, as she runs over and takes Gigi down with a frankensteiner. Kara then turns and springboards off the middle rope with a corkscrew moonsault... but Gigi gets her knees up! Kara rolls over clutching her stomach. The crowd oohs.

Sharper: “High risk there, and didn't quite work out for Kara.”

Winters: “Great ring awareness by Gigi though.”

Gigi is up first, Kara a little slower. Gigi rushes at her, looking to grab her for something but Kara spins out of the way. Gigi bounces off the ropes and on the comeback Kara leaps and nails Gigi with another spinning heel kick. Both of their momentum collide to lay Gigi out flat on her back. The crowd roars as Kara goes for a cover, hooking a leg.

Gigi barely gets her shoulder up right before the three. Both roll over in opposite directions. Kara is up first, then Gigi right after. Kara bounces off the ropes to get some momentum, possibly looking for another heel kick, but Gigi scouts it and steps forward, grabbing Kara before she can execute anything, throwing her into the corner. Kara hits the turnbuckles hard, and slumps down a little, grabbing at her back. Gigi smirks, and backs up almost to the other corner, before running full force and jumping for a body splash. But Kara drops all the way down just in time, and Gigi gets a face full of the top turnbuckle! Kara rolls out of the way to the apron as Gigi falls back, holding her face. Kara sees her position and smiles.

Sharper: “Looks like Kara has an idea. And there she goes climbing to the top.”

Winters: “And Gigi has her hands over her face still, she has no idea.”

Kara gets to the top rope and the crowd roars as she blows the fans a kiss before leaping with the Magic Carpet Ride! Gigi sees Kara flying at her too late to move and Kara lands it dead to rights. She gets up for a second and drags Gigi away from the ropes before dropping for the cover, hooking both legs.

The crowd roars as the bell rings.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, by pinfall.... Kara Abheri!”

Kara gets to her feet, beaming as the referee goes over and raises her hand. Gigi rolls over to her stomach, one hand still over her face.

Sharper: “Kara Abheri gaining some momentum here, first a win over a former tag team champion a fortnight ago and now a victory over Gigi Steward. Things are looking up for the Paragon.”

Winters: “Sometimes a little momentum is all you need. Gigi on the other hand may need a surgeon. Did you see how hard she face planted that turnbuckle?”

Kara continues to celebrate a bit before we cut backstage.

Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine are seen walking backstage. The crowd cheers seeing them. Selena and Amy scan the hallway before heading over towards Ravyn Taylor who is grabbing a bottle of water from catering. Ravyn turns and smirks.

Ravyn: “This is cute. You just seem to enjoy trying to build relationships with all of Regan Street’s tag, or potential, tag partners.”

Selena: “Ravyn, cut the crap. You know why we’re here.”

Ravyn: “Certainly not about a match with me. Don’t worry, I still remember that.”

Amy: “Look….we’re on the same side on this one. We all want to knock Cain down a few pegs. I wouldn’t mind knocking Dante down a few two.”

Ravyn: “Is this the part of the conversation where we try to determine who has a bigger fish to fry? If so, you both are going to have a hard time making a case stronger than mine.”

Selena: “This should be easy. Why the attitude?”

Ravyn: “It’s not to Amy. It’s to you. Ignore me for months and now we’re on the same side and I exist again. And if only I was number one contender.”

Amy: “Okay, quit it.”

Ravyn: “No…Amy, I respect what you’ve done in the ring. But let’s make this clear. This Saturday, there are two options. I follow my plan and you follow yours…or you follow my plan and we all win. I’ll even make sure you get your shot at Cain….and your shot at Dante…and we get to enjoy watching another of Dante’s plans fail. Otherwise, I’m not interested.”

Ravyn walks off. Selena shakes her head.

Selena: “Unbelievable.”

Amy: “We’re all high-strung.”

Selena: “Yeah, but we’re at least putting it aside for the big picture.”

Selena watches as Ravyn leaves and we cut away.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see a shot of Raven Tyler walking into a talent agency office. She walks over to one woman and extends her arm. We then see Syren with her.

Raven: “Hi…I’m Charity, we talked on the phone…”

We cut to a shot of Syren standing outside of the office.

Syren: “It’s nice to do something like this. Ravyn and I talked to her one night and she’s a good person, just chasing the dream. Instead of being with a creep, if we can help. Nice change of pace with what we’re all dealing with.”

We cut back to the office to see Raven seated across from the woman she shook hands wit.

Woman: “So you’ve filled all of the paperwork. It may take a bit, but I have a few feelers out. One thing that I like to focus on is fit. We’re not going to put you in a Kendall/Pepsi fiasco. We check that out.”

Raven: “Oh thank God. I’m so not her.”

We then cut to show Raven Tyler outside of the office, filmed.

Raven: “Well…I guess I should properly introduce myself….I’m Charity Townshend. And well…looks like I am going to get my break.”

We then cut back to Syren.

Syren: “It’s up to her. But she’s at least got a good rep. I don’t even want to know who Dante would’ve put her in touch with.”

The scene fades out to show a shot of Charity talking to the talent rep.

Sharper: “And that was filmed a couple of weeks ago. A good break for the young lady. We’ve been told that she’s now got her first commercial. SCW cameras will be there and we’ll bring that to you next week on Breakdown as we follow what really is a hell of a story.”

Winters: “Not quite Vanity Fair, but a good break for her. Goes from being the fake CHBK’s imposter Ravyn to now having a career. I’d say that’s a step up.”

Damien Rilaki vs. Alex Drake

“Leader of the Heart Broken” by Papa Roach starts to play in the arena. After a shortened intro, spotlights circle around the arena. Firstly, the blonde bombshell Mickie Road walks out onto the stage and turns to look at the entrance, next Alex Drake walks out from the back and looks around and extends his arms while Mickie points to him from the side. He spins around before starting to walk to the ring with Road following after him. He raises his arms in the air as the walks down as the crowd boos them both slightly.

Phillips: “Coming down to the ring first, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 225 pounds, being accompanied to the ring by Mickie Road…. He is Truly a Heartbreaker, Alex Drake!”

The boos continue as Alex Drake struts a bit to the ring and walks around the ring before hopping onto the apron. He looks at the crowd, showing himself off for a brief movement. He steps through the ropes and spins around before stopping and posing in the middle of the ring. He takes off his entrance attire as he gets ready for the challenge in front of him.

Sharper: “Alex Drake is looking confident as ever.”

Phillips: “And his opponent…”

The opening guitar strum of Enter Sandman by Metallica hits over the P.A System capturing the SCW fans attention as all eyes divert from the ring to the stage. The lights dim for a moment, a spotlight shines down onto the curtains which slowly part open. Through the curtain walks a muscular man in combat fatigues and a tank top, in his hands is an electric guitar which he is playing...

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, Hailing from Kaua’I, Hawaii… He weighs in tonight at 235 pounds… Damien RILAKI!!!”

The response from the fans is positive as Damien Rilaki looks up and continues to play along with his theme song. He begins to confidently walk down to the ring with a smirk on his face before stopping at the foot of the ramp and looking at the ring with purpose in his eyes. We see Alex Drake mocking Rilaki’s guitar playing with an air guitar of his own which gets a chuckle from Mickie Road. After removing the guitar and resting it against the steel steps, Rilaki slides into the ring and stands up turning to the SCW camera and showing the hang loose hand sign. Drake quickly runs across the ring and connects with a clubbing blow on the giant Hawaiian while his back is turned, he hits another and another which generates a series of boo’s as the referee tells him to back away.

Winters: “Just start the match already!”

Sharper: “What?!”

Drakes backs up for just a moment as the referee checks on Damien Rilaki and asks if he’s okay, he nods and the official calls for the bell. Drake quickly runs back over but Rilaki turns around and connects with a vicious clothesline after charging out of the corner, Alex Drake doing a three sixty for his trouble before crashing onto the canvas!

Sharper: “The power behind Damien Rilaki is something else, he just damn near rung the bell of Alex Drake.”

Rilaki turns only to find that Drake has rolled out of the ring to the floor and holding his chest, Mickie Road rushes over to Drake and checks on him while Damien paces back and forth inside the ring. You would be remiss if you didn’t’ mistake him as a Lion with his long mane of hair but that aside, Rilaki doesn’t wish to wait any longer. He exits the ring and begins to walk around, Mickie Road having helped Alex up warns him of the impending danger, Drake instinctively rolls back into the ring allowing Road to back away innocently. Damien looks at her and shakes his head before he climbs onto the apron but rather than get into the ring he is caught with a drop kick that sends him back down to the floor himself from Alex Drake.

Winters: “Picture perfect drop kick there from Drake.”

Sharper: “That’s all but annoyed Rilaki more though, he’s still on his feet.”

Rilaki holds his jaw while looking into the ring, Alex Drake confidently motions for him to come back into the ring which is enough for Rilaki to slide In via the bottom rope, however its to his detriment when Drake stomps the back of Rilaki’s head. He hits him again and again before dragging the big man to his feet and sending him into the corner. Backing up Drake charges at Damien and leaps up before connecting with a forearm shot to the face of the Hawaiian.

Sharper: “Alex Drake taking control of this match, the hot temper of Rilaki certainly played a part there.”

Winters: “That can be a blessing or a curse, right now it’s a curse.”

The crowd “Wooo’s” when a knife edge chop connects to the chest of Damien Rilaki, they do so again when another and once more. Alex Drake locks in a front face lock and delivers a suplex to the Hawaiian before floating over and covering…

1… NO! Kick out by Rilaki!

Alex Drake looks at the referee and demands he counts faster with the slap of his hands. He focuses back on Rilaki however now mounting him and holding a hand full of hair with one hand while delivering shots to the face with the other. The SCW fans are trying to rally behind Rilaki right now while the official is giving a verbal warning to Drake for holding the hair. The student of the game Drake backs away from Rilaki and confidently saunters over to a corner to talk so trash to the fans.

Sharper: “Drake has next to no love for the fans, that is a given. Rilaki certainly learning a thing or two about SCW and the talent.”

Winters: “And to think he wants a piece of Ethan von Aaron?”

Sharper: “What do you expect, he’s ruined two matches since he debuted! And because of what, his ties to Kennedy?”

Rilaki gets back to his feet and Drake notices, he runs at the big man with a clothesline of his own but Rilaki connects with a kick to the gut stopping him in his tracks, he then picks him up and hits a pendulum backbreaker. Drake holds his back in pain while Damien gets to his feet again, he quickly runs the ropes and leaps up into the air and drops a leg across the chest of Drake next before cover.

1…

2… NO! Kick out by Drake!!

Sharper: “Big Pendulum back breaker and leg drop combination, Alex Drake feeling both.”

Winters: “Could barely make a 2 count though. Going to take more than that to put Drake away.”

Rilaki gets to his feet and brings Drake with him, on the outside we see Mickie Road looking concerned now while Damien drags Alex Drake into the corner and starts to unload with lefts and rights in quick succession. Mickie Road is yelling at the official to get him out of the corner, but Rilaki isn’t listening. The fans are cheering on the big Hawaiian as he connects with a European uppercut and follows that up with a hip toss that sends Drake across the ring!

Sharper: “More of his strength on display, that is a two-hundred and twenty-five pound man he just threw across the ring Shawn.”

Winters: “That is impressive, but this is Wrestling Adam, not football. No points for that.”

Damien looks set to do something big as he crouches down in the corner of the ring waiting for Drake to get to his feet. The crowd buzzes and looks ready to explode with cheers, but those thoughts are squandered and boo’s replace them.

Sharper: “Oh my GOD, Ethan von Aaron is out here now!”

Winters: “He’s behind the barrier, he’s just a fan of Alex Drakes clearly!!”

From the barrier in the front row we see Ethan standing there but that doesn’t’ last long when he jumps over and begins to look into the ring. Rilaki just starts to run at Drake but stops in his tracks and turns around to see Ethan and like a red rag to a bull that’s all she wrote. Damien Rilaki sprints and slides under the rope and makes a beeline for Ethan von Aaron who quickly runs behind Mickie Road and holds her in front of him which stops Damien Rilaki.

Sharper: “Is there no shame to that man?!”

Winters: “I know, looks like Rilaki is tempted in taking them BOTH out.”

Damien scowls before taking a step forward, the referee now yelling at Ethan who pushes Mickie into Rilaki and backs away. The Hawaiian stops himself and moves Mickie Road to the side as we see Alex Drake running off the apron and leaping off with a double axe handle in mind. However, from out of nowhere Rilaki connects with the Rilaki Roll Express big boot.

Sharper: “Ohh he hit it out of nowhere! Drake is down.”

Damien Rilaki lets out an almighty roar of anger as he now removes his tank top and throws it into the crowd. He pulls Drake up and turns around ready to throw him into the ring, but before he can Ethan runs around and connects with the Electric guitar to the back of Damien Rilaki. He hits him again as the Hawaiian drops to a knee, he hits another and the official has no choice but to call the match as boo’s reign out from the SCW fans.

Winters: “Ethan going to town on the back of Damien Rilaki!”

Sharper: “This is uncalled for! That son of a…. We need some help out here!”

Rilaki is down as Ethan throws the cracked Guitar to the side, he throws a stomp into the back of Rilaki and pulls him up to his feet but in doing so we see a huge European uppercut from the Hawaiian connects to Ethan sending him stumbling back. Security have rushed down now and run around the ring as Ethan backs away and up the ramp while the referee and security try to hold off Rilaki who is incensed.

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentlemen, the winner of this match as a result of a disqualification…. Damien Rilaki!!”

Enter Sandman hits over the P.A System, but there is no celebration at all while the fans are screaming let him go, Ethan is quick to disappear behind the curtain as the SCW cameras focus on Damien Rilaki who trying to convince the officials that he is calming down….

The scene opens up backstage to see Selena Frost walking into her locker room and we then see Kelcey Wallace seated inside. The crowd cheers seeing her.

Selena: “Kelcey.”

Kelcey: “Saw your team meeting earler.”

Selena: “Don’t get me started on that.”

Kelcey: “It’s Ravyn Taylor. She’s not going to lose a grudge just to do it unless it makes sense tactically.”

Selena: “Even if it does, doesn’t seem to happen. Still hung up over last fall. Sorry I didn’t feel the need to play her games.”

Kelcey: “Could see if they replace her with me? I wouldn’t mind giving Cain another loss.”

Selena: “I don’t think that will happen.”

Kelcey: “A shame. Just odd that I’m here as SCW Champion on the sidelines. It’s an odd bit of calm, but I know that will go away.”

Selena: “Then go to the boss and toss an idea. You’re on his good side again. And well-“

Kelcey: “We do owe each other a match.”

Selena: “You said it, not me.”

Kelcey gets up and walks over to Selena.

Kelcey: “Good luck with Ravyn.”

Selena: “Yeah…thanks.”

Kelcey then walks out of the room as Selena glances at her and watches her leave before we cut back to commercial.

We open up backstage to see Damien Rilaki walking into one of the general locker rooms and throwing his elbow pad down. He then turns and sits down. We then hear a knock at the door. Damien sighs and gets up and walks over to the door. He opens it.

Damien: “Kennedy?”

Kennedy: “You okay….just saw that Ethan again…”

Damien: “That idiot. Don’t get me started. I owe him a few ass-kicking at this point.”

Kennedy: “About that.”

Damien: “This is just as much my problem as it is yours.”

Kennedy: “He was asking about another imposter. This needs to end.”

Damien: “You’re in the Taking Hold of the Flame battle royal, right?”

Kennedy: “Yeah…signed up.”

Damien: “There’s your revenge. Let me deal with Ethan.”

Kennedy just nods.

Kennedy: “It’s my problem-“

Damien: “I’m the one who stopped him at Broken Beliefs…it’s my problem.”

Kennedy nods.

Kennedy: “Okay….okay….”

Kennedy just looks a bit unsure of how to respond as Damien Rilaki steps back and returns to his spot in the locker room. The door closes behind him.

The lights flicker in the arena, before going off fully, a single spotlight shining on the entrance way as it's fills with smoke. The spotlight then starts to strobe, as the opening riff to “Rise” by Sixx: Am hits over the PA system and two figures step into the light, through the smoke. The light comes back on, AJ Helms and Shaun Cruze, holding the SCW World Tag Team Championship belts, nodding to each other before looking over their shoulders, Scarlett Pearson and Angyalka Cruze walking behind them and putting a hand on AJ and Shaun’s shoulders. Scarlett is a bit bigger. AJ Helms is just happy that Scarlett is back with them. Shaun then locks hands with Scarlett. Angyalka and Shaun do the same and start to head to the ring.

Sharper: “They are still the World Tag Team Champions after Fatal Fortunes, but a rough couple of weeks. We saw AJ Helms challenge for the World Title last week. Close, but not quite. Then we know the Cannons are behind these attacks on seemingly on Shaun Cruze.”

Knots: “That’s what it seems like. They went after him. Not Helms when it was a bigger spotlight. They waited for Cruze to win and then went after him. Angyalka pulling one of their masks off.”

Sharper: “They have to deal with that, we don’t know why, all while next week, they’ve got a unique Tag Team Championship defense against Ravyn Taylor and Kayla Jones!”

The Cruzes walk over to the steps and Shaun holds Angyalka’s arm as she walks up the steps and into the ring. Shaun enters too. AJ helps Scarlett up before holding the ropes for Scarlett. AJ enters after. They walk towards the middle of the ring. Shaun Cruze walks over and grabs a microphone and takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring. AJ straightens the title over his shoulder. Cruze does the same.

Shaun: “Fatal Fortunes is done and it’s been an interesting few weeks.”

Shaun looks down and shakes his head.

Shaun: “AJ…you showed again why you’re going to be a future World Champion by taking Kelcey Wallace to the limit. Lexi von Aaron may be someone we don’t need to deal with, or at least you don’t anymore AJ. And Scarlett, it’s great to see you back by his side. And congratulations again.”

Scarlett smiles as AJ smiles.

Cruze: “And we successfully defended our World Tag Team Championships against Autumn Valentine and Manvel, after having beaten Sisterhood for the Titles.”

Cruze looks up as the crowd cheers some.

Cruze: “But not all has been good. It seems that I have a few people that have a problem with us, but more so me. A few people wearing President’s masks came out here and first attacked both of us at Broken Beliefs. Left us laying and I thought, maybe it’s someone looking to make an impact. A new team. Maybe Blake Mason paid someone off but that may be just a bit too close to Kelcey Wallace. Fast forward a week and I get mauled right over there.”

Shaun Cruze points to the section of the crowd next to the announce tables.

Cruze: “At least we retained….and then last week, things got a bit more interesting. Because after I beat Gigi Steward, we found out who was behind it. We found out that it wasn’t some new team looking to make a play for the Tag Titles. It was a familiar face, both for all of you, now no longer in Monarchy….and to me.”

Cruze pauses for a moment.

Cruze: “And through all of this, I was wondering why the cloak and dagger, why not just get the job done. Why the need for the masks? Why the need for the petty little attacks? Why not just come right at me? Because right now, I’ll admit, I stand here looking around and seeing how Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster, they want their shot. Next week, Ravyn Taylor and Kayla Jones get a shot our World Tag Team Championship and we all know that both of them in their teams, were dominant and dangerous, together….who knows, but they’re a threat. And we have the Cannons running around, coming for me, and in turn, affecting both my partner, AJ…and my wife Angyalka and-“

???: “You want to know why?”

The crowd boos as Shaun looks around. We then see a shot of someone wearing a Nixon mask over his face on the big screen. Shaun Cruze just glares at the entrance way.

“Nixon”: “Shaun….you know why. We’ve always been big for the big reveal. But I have a better question for you. Why do you have to do the dishonourable thing and lie? You stand for what’s right and try to do the right thing and yet Shaun, at your core, you are rotten. No idea in SCW is more misunderstood than Shaun Cruze and Honour. You see, I am all for honour, it separates the men from the jealous petty children of this business. It’s been misreported for oh so long. And you want to know why?”

“Nixon” just looks at the camera, pausing for effect.

“Nixon”: “Well I can show you. Oh no….not footage of that. That…that’s not something I even care about. That’s just the patheticness of the business coming through…this….this goes to the man himself.”

“Nixon” then smiles as the video cuts out to show black and white footage.

We open up with a shot from a security camera showing the living room of a house. We see Shaun Cruze sitting next to a pregnant Taylor Chase-Cruze on a couch. We see Shaun Cruze, clearly upset. We can hear some of their conversation.

Shaun: “He didn’t want you Taylor, but he would have allowed your relationship with Scott and still been there for his baby. That’s the kind of man he was.”

Taylor: “You don’t know that.”

Shaun: “I do know that, and I know something else. If you’d have told him the truth, he wouldn’t be dead right now.”

Taylor: “Shaun, I know your hurt, but that’s not fair.”

Shaun: “[BLEEP] you Taylor, YOU killed him.”

Taylor: “Shaun he had a heart condition, you know this!”

Shaun: “YOU [BLEEP]ING KILLED HIM!!!”

We then see Taylor slapping Shaun across the face. Shaun jerks to the side. We then see Shaun turn and grab Taylor by the throat. We hear Taylor scream a bit as Shaun pushes her back. We see him turn and his arm coming up.

Taylor: “Shaun, the baby… please?”

We see Shaun become more relaxed and then stepping back, almost in shock himself before looking down at Taylor.

Shaun: “Tay…”

Taylor: “Get away from me!”

Shaun: “Tay, I don’t know what happened. I’m sorry!”

Taylor: “Get the [BLEEP] out!”

Shaun: “Tay…”

Taylor: “GET THE [BLEEP] OUT!!!”

We then see Shaun back off before heading out of the living room. We see him leave the scene as Taylor Chase-Cruze looks around, almost stunned herself before looking up at the camera briefly and then getting up. We hear a door close and Taylor looks down a bit before Shaun back off and out of the living room, down the corridor and out the door. She then holds her stomach and lets out a groan before collapsing to the couch. The scene continues to play for a few moments. It then abruptly cuts.

We cut to show Shaun Cruze looking down at the mat in the middle of the ring, clearly trying to process everything. Angyalka walks over to him to talks to him.

Angyalka: “Shaun….Shaun….”

AJ just looks stunned as does Scarlett Pearson. Angyalka then tells them to head to the back.

Angyalka: “Come on. Let’s get backstage. We need to talk.”

Shaun starts to head to the ropes. The crowd just continues to look on buzzing as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We cut backstage to see Spirit Dansby outside of the locker room of Honour Code. The crowd roars seeing the door.

Spirit: “Welcome back to Breakodwn. Spirit Dansby here standing outside of the locker room of the SCW World Tag Team Champions, Honour Code. Moments ago, a stunning revelation by the Cannons, we presume, who showed a video of Shaun Cruze apparently losing his temper and threatening the then pregnant Taylor Chase. I was hoping to get a comment with Shaun now but-“

We then see the door open as AJ Helms walks out from the room. He steps forward.

Spirit: “AJ, can I-“

AJ: “Yeah, you can. Watching the monitor. Like vultures. What do you want him to say?”

Spirit: “Well to explain himself-“

AJ: “He’s had to explain himself for that attack on Blake Mason. He didn’t do anything. He made sure it didn’t get more out of hand. He was there to make sure they didn’t do anything they’d regret and did it to support Kelcey. I may not have always liked his friendship with some people, but one thing I know about him is that he’s loyal to a fault and whatever happened, I’m not going to stand here and let him get dragged through the mud. I’m going to stand by him and support him. Just like he’s done for so many others. He may have made a mistake, a big, big mistake, but he’s been with me as we’ve had to deal with this ridiculous Lexi BS. He’s helped me through it all, to the World Tag Team Championships and as a friend. I don’t know what happened, but he’ll talk when he’s ready. Until then….don’t judge what you don’t know!”

The crowd roars a bit. AJ turns back and heads back into his locker room. The crowd continues to cheer as we then cut away.

Maddy Steward vs. Juice

Television Championship Eliminator

The lights dim down, and green smoke begins to slowly drift up and around the entrance ramp, when the voice of Beard can be heard saying, “A lot of wrestlers talkin’ that shhhh,” followed by Juice’s voice saying, “Not enough doin’ that shhhh…”. Then, “White Crime” by Lil Dicky begins to blare through the PA system and out from the smoke emerges Juice, walking in slow motion. Juice slowly jaws with the crowd, while slowly patting himself on the chest.

Phillips: “The following match is your Television Championship Eliminator. First, on his way to the ring, from the F’ed Up Streets, representing the F-Ups, Juice!”

The music continues to play, with Beard and Juice’s voices heard once more saying:

“White crime
White crime
Yeah, we ‘bout that
Do a lot of dirt, never doubt that
Lot of wrestle twerps, love to shout crap
Love to make their mouth flat
When it come to the Ups, no, we spout facts
You 'gon learn what we 'bout, bruh”

Slowly ascending to the top rope, the Juice poses once more, drinking in all of the jeers. He then quickly jumps down off of the top rope and roll to the outside.

Sharper: “The Juice once again working on his own this week. His past singles match didn’t end very well. He has been dealing with Akira Kimura recently and so far, Akira has gotten the better of Juice. Tonight, Juice has an opportunity to not only show Akira he’s not to be trifled with as well as a TV title shot.”

Winters: “But he is going to have to go through Madison Steward. She is of Goddess descent, so the Juice may dry up here tonight.”

“She’s a Genius” blasts through the arena as one single blue spot light flies around the audience, lighting up the faces of random fans. The beam of light goes faster and faster along with the pitch and tempo of the music as it gets louder, after 2 minutes of a wild frenzy, Everything suddenly stops, the music and the light in the middle of the stage. A solo light not pink light glares down in the middle of the stage. The eager fans wait in anticipation.

Madison Steward sprints out to the awaiting crowd. Madison throws her arms in the air getting a small pop from the crowd. She hops back and forth on the balls of her toes, showing the energy she possesses. She also flashes the multitude her award winning smile as she exhibits her excitement and it shows as she waves wildly to the crowd.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from Los Angeles, California…The Dynamite Kid…Madison Steward!!!!”

The spot light stays trained on Madison as she starts her walk down the ramp. The newest Steward is dressed in her ring gear with her own version of the Team Desire sleeveless jacket. When she reaches ringside, Madison runs at the ring apron and swiftly jumps onto the apron. She makes her way over to nearest corner and throws her arms into the air trying getting the crowd riled up for her match. After a couple minutes, Maddy climbs down off the ropes and enters the ring where she heads to her corner to get ready for the match to begin.

The ref calls for the bell and Juice immediately attacks Madison, clubbing her in the back before whipping her into the corner, following up with a running clothesline. Madison steps out of the corner and Juice quickly rolls her up for a pin.

Madison kicks out! Juice lifts Madison off of the mat, but Madison hits a European uppercut. Juice stumbles back and Madison runs up and connects with a flying forearm, dropping Juice to the mat. Juice gets to his feet, only to turn around into a front dropkick. Madison then goes for a cover of her own.

Juice kicks out.

Sharper: “Well Juice wasn’t wasting any time, but he wasn’t able to keep his momentum going.”

Winters: “He’s going to have to work on his stamina. Don’t worry kid. You’ll get there. Hopefully but probably not.”

Madison pulls Juice up by his mask. On the way up, Juice pops her on the ass. Madison steps back and rubs her butt while glaring at Juice, who is facing the crowd, flexing and jawing with the crowd, as he struts near the apron.

Winters: “Well that is a way to break up a hold.”

Sharper: “The last time Juice did that to a female wrestler, it was Kara Abheri and Juice had his ass handed to him.”

Winters: “It made for great television.”

As Juice continues to flex and strut, Madison runs up and jumps on his back, locking in a headlock. Juice immediately begins to flail around, while screaming like a banshee. Juice tries to grab at the ropes, but can’t quite reach them, as he continues to flail his arms in desperation.

Sharper: “What in God’s name is that sound? Sounds like a dying cat.”

Winters: “Maybe it’s his mating call?”

Juice stumbles towards the ref, grabbing at him, as the ref tries to dodge his attempts. Juice ends up backing the referee in the corner, and grabs a hold of the ropes. Madison tightens her grip, only for Juice to kick his leg back and up, landing a bit of a low blow. Madison releases her grip and drops to her knees. Juice leaps over the referee, landing on the top of the turnbuckle. Madison groans in pain as she turns around.

Sharper: “So much for a mating call. Juice going below the belt.”

Winters: “As the saying goes, all is fair in love and war.”

Madison turns around, only for Juice to leap off of the top rope, taking her down with the Juiciest DDT, spiking her head off of the mat. The crowd “OOHHSS” upon impact, as Juice hooks the leg.

The ref calls for the bell as the crowd boos and Juice leaps to his feet, beginning to hop off of the mat, extending his fist in the air over and over.

We then open up backstage. We see the back entrance to the building as Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman walk into the building. The crowd boos loudly.

Sharper: “Cain and Wiseman are here.”

Winters: “And Selena and Amy will know and be looking to get their hands on them!”

Sharper: “Business picking up here tonight on Breakdown!”

The scene continues to play out for a few moments before fading out.

Bree Lancaster vs. Donovan Kayl

"Epic" by Faith No More starts to play as the spotlight focuses on the top of the ramp. Immediately, the crowd rise to their feet in a raucous ovation. Stepping out to the top of the ramp is "The Cornerstone" Donovan Kayl. He steps to the side, facing out to the crowd. After turning his head to survey the entire crowd, he turns to face the front of the ramp, beginning to walk out towards the ring.

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

You want it all but you can't have it

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

Sharper: “Donovan Kayl is about to go against Bree Lancaster. There’s some controversy about this match that Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster went directly to the board and given their talk about using money to get what they want, you wonder whether something untoward was done here.”

Winters: “Whatever it is, Kayl doesn’t care. He’s going right for it. He’s going to face Lancaster and just think, this Saturday, we’ll see Simon Lyman and Blake Mason clash.”

The horns of "I'm Worth It" by Fifth Harmony begin as the lights dim somewhat, and a few white spotlights dance on the stage in time to the music. Bree Lancaster appears, her white silk robe clinging to her hips, and Scott Burnside behind her.

{Give it to me, I'm worth it
Baby, I'm worth it}

Bree then struts down the ramp as the chorus continues, one hand on the silver silk belt holding her robe shut. Two crossing spotlights follow her progress.

Phillips: “And his opponent, currently residing in The Hamptons, and wearing original Scott Burnside designed ring attire... she is the Classy One... Bree Lancaster!”

The music continues as Bree gets to the ring. She stops at the steps to pose a second, then goes up with a little bounce in her step to the music. Scott goes around the ring as Bree steps between the ropes over the middle rope. She then does a little circle in the ring, showing off a bit before stopping in the middle of the ring. Bree tugs on the silver belt, and the robe falls open revealing her pure white and silver trimmed outfit. Bree shimmies her shoulders in time to the music and the robe slides off to the canvas. Cocking a hip sideways, Bree raises her arms overhead in a flourish, then walks another small circle, a smug smirk on her face, before bending over to pick up her robe. She goes to the corner and hands it to Scott as the music fades and the lights return to normal.

Sharper: “Bree Lancaster out here with Scott Burnside. Where is Blake Mason?”

Winters: “That’s part of the fun if you’re Donovan Kayl. He may be out here. He may not. Bree can handle things herself.”

Sharper: “I’m not doubting that, but still.”

The bell sounds as Bree Lancaster and Donovan Kayl look across the ring at one another. Kayl walks out and Bree walks out too. She then turns and lunges at Kayl and goes for his knee. Kayl blocks it and elbows her in the back of the head. He forces her up and forearms her in the jaw and then wrenches the arm. Bree grimaces as she bends over. She flips through and rolls and starts to get up. Kayl trips her with his leg. Bree hits the mat. Kayl goes for an elbow drop. Bree moves out of the way. Kayl rolls over and gets up and Bree kicks him in the ribs and locks in a side headlock. She smiles as Kayl pulls her back into the ropes. He fires her off. She bounces off and Kayl shoulders her down. Bree looks up. Kayl then runs into the ropes. Bree dives towards him and Kayl stomps and stomps her in the side of the head. She rolls over and Kayl goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Kayl showing that experience edge. Calmly countering and holding onto his opponent and wearing her down.”

Kayl then turns and spins Bree into the ropes. She bounces off and Kayl hits a hip toss. Bree gets up and turns and Kayl scoops her up and slams her down. She rolls over and Kayl grabs her by the arm. Bree tries to get away and Kayl holds on and pulls her up, but Bree turns and blasts him with a forearm. She then kicks him in the ribs and then jumps up and hits a dropkick. Kayl hits the mat. She gets up as Kayl pulls himself up and Bree clubs him in the back. She then goes to whip him into the ropes. Kayl spins through and sends Bree in. Bree bounces off and Kayl goes for a back drop. Bree spins through and then jumps up and hits another dropkick, knocking Kayl down. Kayl rolls over and starts to get up again and Bree walks over and spins through and blasts him in the back of the head with a discus clothesline, forcing him through the ropes. Bree smiles.

Sharper: “Kayl falls to the apron. Hard clothesline and Kayl could be hurt from that.”

Winters: “Not the nice landing to the apron either. Just dropped like a tonne of bricks.”

Kayl slowly stirs as Bree runs across the ring. She bounces off and runs at him, going for a spear, but Kayl sidesteps. Bree stops herself from going through and Kayl knees her in the chest. She falls back. Kayl climbs up to the top rope and Bree turns and Kayl nails her with a double axe handle smash. Bree falls to the mat. Kayl goes for the pin.

Bree kicks out. She turns and starts to get up. Kayl gets up and winces a bit before stepping forward and hitting a swinging neckbreaker. He turns and slowly gets up as we then see Blake Mason walking out from the back in a suit. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “And now Blake Mason on his way out. Bree Lancaster in trouble. Blake comes out.”

Winters: “Just giving moral support.”

Sharper: “Either way, Donovan Kayl is aware.”

Kayl looks over at the entrance way. Blake just smiles as he takes a few more steps before stopping. Kayl turns and grabs Bree. He nails her in the ribs with a shot before running across into the ropes. Scott Burnside then suddenly goes to trip him up. Kayl stops and turns and steps through the ropes. Scott backs off.

Winters: “They? How about Bree!”

Sharper: “Kayl can’t get anywhere. That bridge limiting his options!”

Kayl yells out and reaches around. He tries to reach around before grimacing and biting his finger briefly. Bree keeps the hold on before Kayl starts to tap out. The crowd boos. Bree holds on for a moment. The referee calls for the bell and the break. Bree then lets go.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via submission, Bree Lancaster!”

Bree stirs as Blake enters the ring. The crowd boos as “Work It” starts to play. Bree then turns to Kayl as Blake hugs and kisses Bree. They then turn to Kayl. Blake promptly stomps Kayl in the knee. He stomps him again and Bree then runs over and stomps Kayl in the face. The crowd boos more.

Sharper: “Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster are not finished!”

Winters: “Blake’s going for the knee. Bree for the head!”

Bree stomps him some more and Blake gets a couple more shots in. He then grabs the leg of Kayl and slides under the ropes. Bree stomps away as Kayl struggles. Blake moves him around to the ringpost and starts to pull Kayl’s legs around it. The crowd boos some more. The bell sounds again and Bree looks at Blake as Blake grabs his leg and slams it into the ringpost. Kayl yells out. Bree stomps him in the face.

Sharper: “Blake just whipping Kayl’s knee into the ringpost! The steel!”

Winters: “This sounds just as good a time as any, but Bree Lancaster has a wonderful new article and spread in Vanity Fair.”

Sharper: “Please, Shawn! They’re injuring Donovan Kayl!”

Winters: “And I want to make sure people see how classy Bree is! And not just because they gave me a hundred bucks before the show to say so!”

Sharper: “Give me a break! This is how they act?!”

Blake then drives Kayl’s leg into the ringpost again. Bree stomps Kayl again before Blake places Kayl’s one leg over his other before looking around and locking in a figure four leglock around the ringpost. The crowd boos as Kayl yells out. Bree backs up as Blake keeps the hold on. The bell sounds again. The referee drops to the floor and tries to get him off. Kayl yells out in pain.

Sharper: “The figure four around the ringpost. The torque on the knee!”

Winters: “Sending a message to Simon Lyman who has to watch this at home!”

Sharper: “He’s not here. He’s preparing for his match. But he has to find out his best friend is getting maimed!”

Blake holds on for a few moments longer as other officials come down from the back. The crowd boos loudly. Blake finally lets go. He rolls away. The referee keeps him back. Blake turns and hops onto the apron and enters the ring. Blake then walks over to Bree as Bree smiles. The two kiss again in the ring. More boos come from the crowd as “G.O.A.T.” starts to play. Kayl turns and holds his knee as officials check on him. Blake and Bree proudly stand in the middle of the ring. Scott Burnside off to the side.

Sharper: “I hope they’re happy!”

Winters: “They look it!”

Sharper: “Kayl’s knee may not be the same and Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster head into Supreme Saturday with a big statement!”

The crowd continues to boo as the scene slowly fades to black.

We then see a shot of Merrick Wiseman handcuffing Ravyn Taylor before showing Adrenaline Rush in the ring.

This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping Rachel Foxx with the Catnap inside Tactical Warfare before showing Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster posing, followed by a shot of Tyler Tucker going for the Caffeine Crash before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.

The scene then cuts to inside the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California where pyro ignites either side of the stage and makes its way towards the center. The crowd explodes with electricity with the cameras catching glimpses of all in attendance tonight. Various signs are on full display for their favorite superstars.  The camera continues to pan the crowd before we cut to ringside and the SCW announce table to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at ringside.

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Adam Sharper here with Jonathan Knots and Donovan Kayl taken out just moments ago.”

Knots: “Bree Lancaster and Blake Mason had a plan. Take out Donovan Kayl. They went after his knee. He won’t be doing too much this Sunday. And with Blake facing Simon Lyman at Supreme Saturday. Things just got a whole lot more interesting.”

Sharper: “That’s not all. Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman are here. Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine have vowed to get their hands on one of them tonight. They’ve also had some issues with Ravyn Taylor.”

Knots: “Are we surprised? Ravyn Taylor is more and more focusing on her own plans and chess games.”

The trumpets sound as the chorus for “Exodus” by Ernest Gold & Henry Mancini begins to as the crowd roars. The crowd cheers as Kelcey Wallace then walks out from the back, holding the SCW World Championship. She stops at the top of the stage and poses as the crowd showers her with cheers. She looks around and smiles before starting to head to the ring. Kelcey Wallace makes her way down the rampway before walking over to the steel steps. She walks up the steel steps and enters the ring.

Sharper: “And the World Champion, we’ve seen her already offer her services to Selena Frost, but she’s on her way out here.”

Knots: “We’re still waiting to find out who her next challenge will be. SCW hasn’t named anyone yet.”

Kelcey Wallace walks across the ring and grabs a microphone from the ring apron. She takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring and smiles as the music fades out. She straightens out the SCW World Championship over her shoulder. She then takes a moment before looking out at the crowd.

Kelcey: “A lot has gone on tonight and it seems like nothing is ever sacred. I suppose before I talk about the World Championship, I should make one comment regarding Shuan Cruze and what seems to have happened with Taylor.”

Kelcey pauses for a moment.

Kelcey: “I know both well….And I’m going to wait until I talk to both sides before I say anything firm, but I know Shaun Cruze and I know that he is a man above reproach. He stood up for me when I didn’t deserve it. He deserves someone to stand up for him. He has it in AJ. What Shaun did in that video, that’s not like him and Shaun…if you need someone to talk to, I’ll at least listen.”

Kelcey pauses as the crowd cheers a bit.

Sharper: “A classy move.”

Knots: “She’s not Bree!”

Sharper: “Oh stop.”

Kelcey: “IT seems like a lot of other things are going down tonight, but one topic of conversation, so far, has been absent and that’s this…the World Championship. And I know that half the locker room wants it. But I also know that this is one of the most important times of the year coming up. It’s Rise to Greatness season and I’ve made this march in the past and with the World Title revolving around everything that mattered to me then. It was….Perfect. And I look forward to doing it again. But I also look at the schedule and know that’s three months away. And I know Taking Hold of the Flame looms large.”

Kelcey pauses and then looks up at the camera.

Kelcey: “And yet, no announcement. There are many deserving contenders. But I wonder why SCW hasn’t made the announcement. I can name a few. Selena Frost….AJ Helms showed he could stand against me any day. Syren, Amy Chastaine, I can go on and on. But I stand here, not sure what awaits me and that makes me think. SCW hasn’t named Selena and I’m not sure why. I would be honoured to face her. But are people standing backstage looking at their odds. Taking Hold of the Flame or a singles match against me. I guarantee the title match, but don’t mistake this for arrogance….my singles record in SCW, even with some of my issues…it’s hard to ignore and it looms large and I’ve been in that position….over thinking that title shot.”

Kelcey looks around as the crowd cheers.

Kelcey: “I was a month and a half ago. I was there when I walked into Broken Beliefs, thinking that if I couldn’t beat Vixen Cain, it was over.”

Kelcey then looks at the World Championship.

Kelcey: “But I am World Champion. The Perfect Champion. Back where I’ve wanted to be for far too long. And I wonder who will be next to stand up and take their shot-“

???: “Whoa, whoa, whoa….You don’t need to wonder. You know damn well who should not only be next against you, but who should still be World Champion.”

Kelcey turns to the entrance way, but instead we see a shot of Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman on the big screen from somewhere backstage.

Cain: “Now, you’ll need to forgive me dearie for not just coming out there and saying this directly to your face. Personally, I want to feel the hatred from you, but we don’t need Selena and Amy getting all hot and bothered when we come out there and take your perfect spotlight. Heard you wanted to be in our match…how cute…how droll….D only puts so many of his prized fighters in the ring against someone who can wreck it all in one night.”

Kelcey: “Do you really need me to show I can beat you down again after Broken Beliefs?”

Cain: “Again?! That’s cute. You needed help to get me and D just looked the other way even though let’s face it…I’ll give you the win…a disqualification. Still YOUR World Champion….Vixen Cain.”

The crowd boos. Cain just smiles into the camera.

Cain: “We both know it. But we also know that I won’t be getting my rematch because D won’t let me near that title if he has anything to say about it. Now, I’d normally say something here about manning up, but well…you don’t have the right parts for that, so I’ll just point out that for someone who is back as World Champion, the fact that you’ve not given Selena exactly what she’s earned by helping you beat me….that says more. So I know I can’t count on you to get it done…So surprise…Third option….”

Cain looks to Wiseman.

Cain: “Our new alliance may pay off in spades. And that….will be perfect.”

Cain winks. He then motions to the cameraman. Wiseman steps forward and forces the cameraman out of wherever they are in the backstage area. We cut back to the ring to see Kelcey Wallace. She just backs up and looks right in the camera.

Kelcey: “No, Vixen…what will be perfect is watching Amy Chastaine, Ravyn Taylor and especially Selena Frost kick your ass and shut that eye that you keep winking.”

The crowd roars as Kelcey turns and hands the microphone off. “Exodus” starts to play again. She turns and exits the ring.

Sharper: “Vixen Cain can claim he’ll figure it out. There’s only one man making that decision and that’s Mr. D. But Kelcey Wallace certainly has little care for Vixen Cain.”

Knots: “That’s her choice. She may have to keep caring if Cain, Wiseman and Dante take out Selena Frost, Amy Chastaine and Ravyn Taylor this Sunday!”

Sharper: “She’ll be watching one way or another.”

Kelcey Wallace drops down to the floor. She continues on her way to the back as the camera follows her. The crowd continues to cheer as we cut away.

Backstage, the scene opens up in the hallways to see Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster with Jessica Winters. The crowd boos seeing them.

Jessica: “Blake, Bree…you both just assaulted Donovan Kayl out there earlier.”

Blake: “Wonderful wasn’t it.”

Jessica: “Wonderful…you tried to injure his knee!”

Bree: “And now we know this Saturday will see a fair fight. Thank you to the board for the match.”

Blake: “I couldn’t get the cage. SCW wouldn’t clear it. And we all know Donovan Kayl would’ve run down at the first set of trouble. Good news is that Simon will get what he wants…me one on one….and frankly, I think after this, Kayl’s off the hook for that attack. I think he got the hint.”

Bree smiles.

Bree: “Oh…and by the way, if you want to know more about your favourite classy superstar, pick up the latest edition of Vanity Fair. You’ll see what a real lady is all about.”

Blake laughs a bit as the two walk off. The crowd boos.

Sam Raine vs. Angelica Jones

The lights dim to a crimson red color throughout the arena. A high pitched female voice can be heard over the PA speakers…

"I Lost My Miiiiiiind..."

The image of a red dragon appears on the Tron. The dragon is engulfed in flames as it is replaced by a phoenix. Then that too goes up in flames as it is replaced by an image of Angelica Jones. The big screen shows images of Angelica Jones delivering the Hot Shot and the Divine Impact to various wrestlers. Angelica then steps out onto the stage. She is dressed in all black, from head to toe, and that includes a black trenchcoat. Her long hair hangs down to shoulder length. She stares menacingly, sadistically down at the ring, pausing before finally beginning to make the long walk to the ring.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a twenty minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, from Boston, Massachusetts, she is Angelica Jones!”

Once at ringside she takes a sharp turn to the right and then ascends the steel steps, making her way up to the ring apron. She strolls slowly to the center before turning towards the audience. She looks out intensely at the crowd before posing with both arms raised high into the air. Angelica steps into the ring and then steps over to the opposite side of the ring where she poses on the second rope. She then jumps off and heads to the center where the music dies down and the lights come back up. She stands, waiting for the match to begin.

Sharper: “As Kayla Jones has a Tag Title shot with Ravyn Taylor and Marie Jones challenges Tyler Tucker this Saturday for the US Championship, Angelica Jones looks to build off an impressive singles victory last week against Rachel Foxx, Damien Rilaki and Jake Starr at Fatal Fortunes.”

Knots: “And against someone she knows well. Sam Raine.”

The arena suddenly goes dark as the arena lighting starts to simulate the look of lightning flashes. While the sound system starts to broadcast the sound of rain as white and blue confetti starts falling on both sides of the entrance. However, the sound of the rain is broken up with the voice of Samantha Raine saying... "No rain on this parade..." which is followed by the start of "I Am The Fire" by Halestorm. The big screen comes to life showing Samantha standing out in a pretty looking field when all of the sudden it starts raining down onto her.

As the video continues to play Sam continues to stand in the field without running for cover. Instead, she looks up at the sky allowing the rain to pelt her face as she raises both of her arms up and for a quick several moments the footage flips to Sam doing that same motion, but holding up GDW Undisputed title and Tag titles.

When Sam finally steps out from behind the curtain the video changes again, but this time it starts to show clips from her greatest matches with Angela Jameson, Feature Presentation, and Jasmine. The cheering actually gets just a little bit louder as the GDW Hall of Famer stands at the top of entrance ramp right in the epicenter of the confetti falling around her in ring attire. Sam smiles widely as she starts to make her way down to the ring.

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, she is Samantha Raine!”

Sam alternates between the left and right side of the ring as she stops to take pictures with the fans, sign a few autographs, and for the younger fans giving a kiss on the cheek. She starts to walk around the ring before stopping and noticing someone in the crowd. The camera pans over to show Brittany Lohan having made her way to the barricade. A security guard keeps her back as the crowd roars.

Sharper: “That’s Brittany Lohan!”

Knots: “Sam Raine and Lohan have some history. Same with Angelica Jones.”

Sam Raine just looks at her as Brittany says something before Sam cracks her with a hard right. Lohan staggers back as the crowd roars. Angelica Jones drops down to the floor and Sam yells at Lohan before Angelica clubs her in the back. She clubs her again and then spins her around and into the ring. Angelica slides in after.

Knots: “What the hell is wrong with her?!”

Sharper: “Oh dear….”

The bell sounds as Sam gets up and Angelica clotheslines Raine down. Raine rolls over and gets up and Angelica grabs her and runs her face first into the top turnbuckle. Sam turns and Angelica kicks her in the ribs and then again before she pulls her out and hits a snapmare. She then forces Raine down to the mat and jumps up and hits a leg drop. She goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Hard dropkick. Sam Raine taking down Angelica Jones.”

Knots: “And now Sam Raine finally gets her down. Angelica was dominating to start.”

Angelica slowly gets up and Raine kicks her in the ribs. She then wrenches her arm. She hits a back kick before snapmaring her over and hitting a hard shoot kick to the head. The crowd ohs. Raine goes for the pin.

Angelica kicks out again. She turns and Raine grabs her and locks in a reverse chinlcok. She pulls back as Angelica slowly turns. The crowd looks on, cheering both on.

Sharper: “Raine wearing down Jones. Now locking in that chinlock.”

Knots: “They know each other, or at least of each other. We saw that on Twitter. And now we’re seeing what they can do to each other here.”

Sharper: “Both accomplished wrestlers. Sam Raine taking Sienna Swann to the limit to start her SCW career here. Angelica Jones has been a threat for every title she’s ever challenged for here.”

Angelica slowly turns and starts to get her feet under her. Raine holds on and Angelica grabs her. She nails her in the ribs with a hard forearm and then a hard right. She pushes Raine back and kicks her in the ribs before whipping her into the ropes. Raine bounces off and Angelica jumps up and hits a hurricanrana into a pin.

Knots: “And just think, Raine was one move away too at a lot of points. Hot damn!”

Sharper: “It started with Sam Raine getting involved with Brittany Lohan and then Jones and Raine tearing down the house. Raine may not have a win yet, but that seems to be more bad luck, than skill. Angelica Jones continues her hot streak. Wins last week, wins tonight.”

Angelica Jones starts to get up and has her arm raised. She looks around and smiles. Raine slowly stirs in the ring as Angelica Jones looks at her and then drops down to the floor. She then starts to head to the back.

Backstage we see Sam Raine backstage, heading to her locker room. Christina Matsui walks over to her.

Christina: “Samantha Raine!”

Raine stops and turns.

Raine: “Yes?”

Christina: “Please come with me. You assaulted a fan!”

Raine: “That was not a fan.”

Christina: “She was a paying customer. We now have officials sitting down with her to ensure she doesn’t sue and you need to come with me.”

Raine sighs.

Raine: “Fine.”

Raine turns and follows Christina as we then cut away.

Breakdown cuts backstage suddenly as we see Akira Kimura nailed in the ribs with a chair. We then see Beard lifting a chair over his head and slamming it down on Kimura’s back. Kimura falls to the ground. We then see Juice lifting a chair up as well and he throws it down, not swinging, but throwing, it down onto Kimura. He lifts it up and throws it again. Beard turns to him.

Juice: “Throwing down, damn it!”

Juice is pulled back.

Juice and Beard try to fight away from the officials as a couple of others check on Kimura. The crowd cheers a bit as we continue to look on for a moment before we cut to the ring.

Akira Kimura vs. Sienna Swann

SCW Television Championship

A red carpet is rolled out with a few photographers positioned toward the entrance position, the woman by the name of Laura Steinbeck along with the Truelove Twins directs everyone to take their positions just as the arena goes dark. Suddenly one lone spotlight shines in entrance where smoke begins to come out and surround the stage.

Sharper: “Kimura has been assaulted. He may be out. And now Sienna Swann on her way out.”

Knots: “Well she has to make her appearance!”

Sharper: “She should know Kimura never got to the ring. So I don’t know why she’s coming out here!”

“Style" by Taylor Swift begins to play throughout the arena, the Tron plays the Video of her various photo-shoots, training, fighting, swimsuits, lingerie and walking through nightclubs with men gawking over her in skin tight dresses. Then Angel, Sienna Swann walks out with her head down as the crowd gives a mix reaction but admiring at the beauty. The SCW Women’s Championship and SCW Television Championship are each over his shoulder and the belts are connected to each other so she can pose. Sienna then extends her arms and reveals the large golden angel wings that are part of her entrance gear, she looks around at the crowd and smirks, posing as the camera flashes begin to pepper down on her from the “paparazzi” staged around her, Laura making sure that they take plenty of pics of The Beautiful Angel before making her way to the ring, Laura instructs the Twins to follow her to the ring as she disappears to the back with the photographers.

Sienna walks down to the ring, looking around and blowing kisses when one of the fans touches her. She stops, turns to the Truelove Twins who take out a sanitizing wipe and disinfect the area she was touched. Satisfied she continues to the apron, climbing up the stairs and to the top rope, posing with her wings spread wide. She looks up to the rafters as a gold spotlight like the light of heaven shines down on her as gold glitter begins to rain down on the entire arena. Sienna smirks and hops into the ring, spreading her arms out and smiling before taking off her wings from help of the Twins, they make their way out of the ring and to the back while Sienna stands, patiently waiting for the start of the match posing and showing off her assets to the crowd as they continue to give a mix reaction to the former South African Beauty Queen and model. She then turns and hands the SCW Television Championship to the official. The official then says something to her. She just smiles before putting her hand up and turning to Jason Phillips, who is in the ring, having not announced her yet. She asks for the microphone.

Sharper: “And now she wants a microphone. She tried to hand the TV Title to the official, but he’s letting her know the confusion.”

Knots: “Oh I think she knows.”

Sienna takes the microphone. She looks around as the crowd boos some more. She just smiles and brings the microphone to her mouth.

Swann: “I would like to take a moment now to still grace you all with my presence. Though I saw that my opponent this week was apparently attacked, by some lovely young men….”

Swann stops and blows a kiss to the camera.

Swann: “I was not going to rob all of you of the opportunity to see the most beautiful wrestler in SCW, covered in gold. On a day where one individual is promoting their spread in one magazine, I give you all the sight that all of you really want to see and will see every week as your TV Champion.”

Swann smiles and poses. The lights dim before shining a spotlight down on her. She just continues to pose in the middle of the ring as both titles shimmer with light bouncing off them. Some fans take pictures as he she continues to pose in the middle of the ring. The cameras remain on her for a few moments before we cut away.

We then open up backstage as we see Jake Starr looking at the monitor. He glances over.

Starr: “Hate to say it. She’s more arrogant than me. And looks much better in a thong.”

The camera pans back to show Tommy Valentine in the locker room as well.

Tommy: “Don’t remind me.”

Starr: “That was a good night. You wanted to get into the mindset of Dark Fantasy and I told you that you needed-“

Tommy: “Please don’t-“

Starr: “Outside of the lack of support, I can see why-“

Tommy: “Okay!”

Tommy gets up and starts to walk off.

Starr: “Well that’s a better visual than Sienna being TV Champion…I had plans. Big plans. YUGE plans.”

Tommy just looks at Starr.

Starr: “Okay, not YUGE. But I wanted to be the one to kick Kimura’s ass. Instead the F-Ups nearly eff it up and Sienna is out there with no defense.”

Tommy: “Things have changed since we both came in.”

Starr: “They have…a lot.”

Gable Winchester then walks into the locker room. He takes a few steps over.

Starr: “Like for one, he’s upgraded.”

Gable: “Come again?”

Starr: “Autumn over Stacy.”

Gable: “Is this really what you two are doing?”

Tommy: “Fun of the TV Title hunt. You’re champ one week, they have to keep you free until you use it. So Jake here is trying REALLY hard not to take a nap.”

Jake: “I’m bored.”

Jake mockingly pouts for effect.

Gable: “Yeah, but that’ll get figured out. At least it’s not like Autumn and I and the tag titles. D flat out told me one night that he doesn’t want to give us the shot if the two of us aren’t on the same page.”

Tommy: “And are you?”

Gable just stops and shakes his head.

Gable: “I don’t know. I just came from Autumn’s locker room. Saw what Sienna did and it made her sick. Holding two titles and she gets off tonight thanks to what happened.”

Tommy: “TV Title rules though. If there’s an attack.”

Starr: “And D’s not here to deal with it. Starting prep for Rise to Greatness.”

Starr scoffs.

Starr: “Just think we were the core a few years ago.”

Tommy smirks. The three of them just keep looking at one another.

Tommy: “Just remember you two…you both have Trios Contracts. You can be again.”

Tommy then turns and heads off. Starr turns to Tommy as Gable just shrugs.

Gable: “Yeah…”

Starr glances at Tommy still as the scene fades out.

The scene opens up backstage to see Jessica Winters with Marie Jones at the SCW interview area.

Jessica: “Ladies and gentlemen, Jessica Winters here with Marie Jones and Marie, this Saturday, you’ll be facing off against Tyler Tucker and challenging for the SCW United States Championship, challenging for the title you were gunning for when you took some time away-“

Jessica shrieks. Regan then runs into the scene and she grabs Marie. Marie fights her off a bit and then stops and shoves her back. Regan goes to nail her again but officials come into the scene and stop her.

Regan: “Just wanted to say…win or lose, I’m walking away with the next US Title shot. Done with this. You…you don’t deserve it over me. Winning that match or not…you have a target on your back. A massive one…so do the smart thing…disappear again.”

Marie: “Not a chance.”

Regan tries to get through again.

Regan: “Big mistake.”

Regan goes forward again when we then see Tyler Tucker running over and standing with Marie. The crowd cheers seeing him. Regan just laughs.

Regan: “Seriously.”

Tucker: “Try us both. Come on Regan! Try us both!”

Regan is pushed back and out of the scene. Marie turns to Tucker. Tucker just looks off camera still before turning to Marie.

Tucker: “M-may the best wrestler win.”

Tucker extends his arm. Marie just looks at him.

Tucker: “Y-you said you weren’t going to try what you did before….then I’m okay with this…”

Marie: “My word I’m done with that.”

Marie shakes Tucker’s hand back.

Tucker: “Good luck.”

Marie: “You too.”

Tucker backs up and turns and heads off. Marie watches him leave as we cut away.

Torsten Voigt vs. Beard

“Mission Statement” by Stone Sour begins blasting through the arena as red and gold lights flash in an alternating fashion on the stage in tune with the song and we see the German flag waving proudly on the Tron. When the lyrics kick in, we see Eric Teufel slowly make his way out, leading his German destroyer into battle.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, on his way to the ring, accompanied by Eric Teufel, he is from Bonn, Germany, Torsten Voigt!”

They both stand there for a moment surveying the fans, Eric with a huge grin that shows how much he’s enjoying this while Torsten Voigt takes in the boos of the crowd with a glare before he focuses solely on the ring and begins marching down the ramp like a man on a mission. Eric notices his client heading to the ring and does his best to keep up with the far more athletic of the two of them. When they reach ringside Eric simply takes his place there to catch his breath while Torsten effortlessly hops onto the apron and steps between the ropes. He begins to crack his joints and stretch before he gets to work, Eric not waiting for the bell to start dictating strategy to him.

Sharper: “This match signed before any of what happened earlier with Akira Kimura took place. Voigt and Kimura have a respect for one another. Voigt I’m sure has no respect for the F-Ups.”

Knots: “And he’s in the back of his mind, he wants a shot at Kelcey Wallace. Eric Teufel wants a shot at Adrenaline Rush again. A lot of anger and a lot of desire for respect in that man!”

The lights dim down, and green smoke begins to slowly drift up and around the entrance ramp, when the voice of Beard can be heard saying, “A lot of wrestlers talkin’ that shhhhh,” followed by Juice’s voice saying, “Not enough doin’ that shhhhh…”. Then, “White Crime” by Lil Dicky begins to blare through the PA system and out from the smoke emerges Beard and Juice, walking in slow motion. Beard slowly poses, flexing muscles and pointing to his beard.

Phillips: “And his opponent, accompanied by Juice, from the F’ed Up Streets, Beard!”

Juice slowly jaws with the crowd, while slowly patting himself on the chest. Beard then takes a few more steps before looking into the ring. He can be noticeably saying “Oh yeah…” before realizing what he about to get into.

Sharper: “I think Beard just realized.”

Knots: “Well uh…they done effed up.”

The music continues to play, with Beard and Juice’s voices heard once more saying:

“White crime
White crime
Yeah, we ‘bout that
Do a lot of dirt, never doubt that
Lot of wrestle twerps, love to shout crap
Love to make their mouth flat
When it come to the Ups, no, we spout facts
You 'gon learn what we 'bout, bruh”

The F-Ups reach the ring and Beard hops onto the apron. Voigt storms over to him. Beard starts to shake his head and tries to hold onto the ropes, but Voigt nails him in the ribs with a hard shot to the ribs. He then grabs him and hip throws him into the ring. Beard rolls over. The crowd roars as the bell sounds. Beard starts to get up, backing up a bit and Voigt lunges and nails him with a hard haymaker, dropping Beard again. Juice just looks into the ring, shaking his head. Beard turns and grabs at the ropes and pulls himself up and turns around and Voigt nails him with a hard haymaker again. The crowd ohs. Beard rolls over.

Sharper: “Oh God. Hard right hands. Voigt just tattooing Beard with them.”

Knots: “At least he’s wearing a mask. Keeps it all together and we can’t see the bruising!”

Beard grabs at the ropes and starts to get up and Voigt grabs him and turns him around before hitting a huge hip toss. Beard rolls over and rolls out of the ring. Beard starts to get up on the floor. Voigt walks over to the ropes and steps through.(1) He drops down and Beard goes for a hard right and Voigt blocks it. He then lifts him up and throws him hard, back first onto the barricade. (2) Beard falls over. Voigt just looks at him. (3) Beard crawls away a bit. Voigt stalks him. (4) Juice runs around the ring and goes to run over to get at Voigt. Teufel yells out at Voigt. Voigt turns and just swats Juice down with a clothesline. Juice falls over in pain. (5) Voigt then looks around before turning to Beard and Beard rakes his eyes. (6) He rolls into the ring. Beard gets up and frantically gets to his feet and runs across the ring. He bounces off and Voigt turns and Beard hits a baseball slide. (7) Voigt falls back to the barricade. Beard then pulls himself to the floor before looking around.

Beard: “Damn it!”

Beard turns and grabs Voigt, trying to pull him up.(1)

Sharper: “Beard just got Voigt down.”

Knots: “The tool rolled to the floor!”

Sharper: “Could’ve had the countout, potentially, but now has to keep the fight!”

Beard grabs Voigt and drags him up a bit. Juice walks over and helps him get Voigt into the ring. The referee tells Juice to get back.

Juice: “Hey! MFer hit me!”

Beard rolls in. Voigt starts to get up and Beard drives his elbow into the back of his head. He gets up and nails him again before getting up and stomping him in the side of the head. He then runs into the ropes. He bounces off and jumps up and lands on his back with a splash. He rolls Voigt over and goes for the pin.

Voigt powers out. Beard rolls over. Voigt starts to get up and Beard gets up and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and Voigt suddenly reaches up and grabs him by the throat. He then turns and choke throws him into the corner. Beard hits the corner and staggers out and Voigt scoops him up and hits a powerslam.

Sharper: “Huge powerslam. Beard just getting tossed all over.”

Knots: “Juice! Get in there! Save your friend!”

Voigt hooks the leg.

1!

2!

Beard kicks out. Voigt looks down and grabs Beard and drags him up. He then whips him into the ropes. Beard bounces off and Voigt lifts him up in a military press. Beard kicks his legs and manages to fall down. He then clubs Voigt in the back and then again and again. He runs into the ropes. He bounces off and goes for a chopblock, but Voigt lifts his leg and stomps him in the chest as he slides through. Voigt then grabs him and drags him up before hooking him up for a vertical suplex and hoisting him up and throwing him back, not dropping to the mat with him. Beard rolls over to the corner and climbs back up to his feet, using the ropes. Voigt follows after him and Beard again rakes the eyes. Voigt staggers back. Beard climbs up to the middle rope. He then dives off and just jumps on Voigt’s back, tackling him down.

Sharper: “And Beard, nothing fancy, just tackling Voigt down.”

Knots: “Almost drove his head into the mat.”

Sharper: “And now he’s letting him get up.”

Knots: “No! Don’t do that!”

Beard gets up and turns around. He waits for Voigt to get up. He then runs at Voigt and kicks him in the ribs and nails him with a hard right before running across the ring. He bounces off and Voigt lifts him up and just throws him up and over the top rope. Beard hits the top rope and flips over and lands just barely on his feet before falling to the mats. The crowd ohs. (1) Voigt turns and starts to head to the floor. Juice however enters the ring and runs over and nails Voigt in the back. The crowd ohs and boos. Voigt turns and Juice nails him again and again as the bell sounds. Juice then kicks Voigt in the ribs and jumps up for the Juiciest DDT, but Voigt shoves him back. Juice rolls over and right out of the ring. Beard jogs around the ring. They head over to Juice as Voigt just looks at him. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “Juice getting in to save his partner. Their first loss if you will since returning-“

Knots: “They won by surviving!”

Sharper: “And Voigt yet again with another disappointment in terms of the results. He wins, but he wasn’t done and Voigt is becoming a very angry man!”

Knots: “And very angry man and again….they effed up!”

Voigt continues to watch as Beard and Juice head backstage as the scene fades out.

Breakdown opens up backstage to see Lexi von Aaron at the SCW interview area with Spirit Dansby. She turns to Lexi as Lexi smiles.

Spirit: “Spirit Dansby here with Lexi von Aaron and Lexi-“

Lexi: “You talked to AJ earlier…how did he smell?”

Spirit: “Ah….Le-“

Lexi: “Nevermind…I’m supposed to stop that…but, but….something else was proven right to me. Shaun Cruze…he’s not a good person. He’s a horrible person. A terrible person! And I’ve been trying for weeks to talk to those President guys who apparently are the Cannons. Didn’t know they won the last election. I thought it was Trump. Damn Democrats passing in those sneaky elections…anyways….”

Spiirt: “Well-“

Lexi: “No! I’m going to talk. I have the time to talk now. And I have an idea. I want to face Shaun Cruze, one on one. I want to face him and take him to the limit and Cannons…you want revenge. Come help me. Find me. I don’t care where. Find me and we can take him out together. You can get your revenge and I can show AJ Helms that Shaun Cruze is an awful partner…and maybe…just maybe….he’ll finally see it with me. I saw the request…the signatures…I know what happened. Shaun wrote it and you just were forced into it. You’re too nice. Well, don’t worry AJ, I’ll free you. Free you from Shaun and then, then we can be the real Honour Code and fight for what’s right, get Superhero movies and little baby trees that only say their name and damn it….it will be LEXTACULAR!”

Lexi smiles as she rubs her hands. Spirit just steps back a bit as we cut away.

COMMERCIALS

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

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

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

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

“Bad Girl” by Avril Lavigne hits the PA system as the lights come back up and we see the screens playing images of Ravyn Taylor’s various antics in and out of the ring. After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn steps out on to the stage with a smirk on her face.

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy

After a few moments she starts to make her way down to ringside and then steps up the ring steps, wiping her feet on the apron before stepping through the ropes.

Sharper: “We already saw Ravyn Taylor, Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine have some stern words with one another.”

Knots: “Like night and day. Cain, Wiseman and McCaffery on the same page-“

Sharper: “Are they? Dante isn’t here at all.”

Knots: “So? They’re in control! They’ve got this!”

Sharper: “Well we’ll see this Saturday when Dante McCaffery, Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman team up to face Ravyn Taylor, Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine.”

She then walks across the ring and goes over to the corner and takes the microphone waiting for her on the ring apron. She then turns back around and over to the middle of the ring. She then looks out at the crowd and smirks a bit. Her music fades out as she looks around the arena.

Ravyn: “An interesting time to say the least….”

Ravyn smirks as she starts to walk around the ring.

Ravyn: “Opportunities to a young lady who is going to get a chance to make a name for herself, instead of on mine…”

Ravyn pauses again.

Ravyn: “I’m the number one contender to the World Tag Team Championship. But it’s not with my wife. Not with my former manager. Not even with a man who you’ve seen me at my most intimate. It’s with Kayla Jones. I’m not sure how I feel about that. I mean, she’s certainly capable in the ring. She’s a former World Tag Team Champion. But then again, a successful tag team focuses upon trust. Trust of your partner. Trust of your ability to know they will back you up when you take a risk or when you do something second nature. Chemistry is next. If I do something, a good partner will naturally respond and enhance. Well I am certainly not Angelica Jones. And Kayla Jones, no disrespect, you are not Syren.”

Ravyn pauses again.

Ravyn: “But that is just half of my future picture and oddly, they’re related. Some could argue that I have this tag team championship opportunity, Kayla too, because of Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman. Wiseman drove me through a table, I’m sure, laughing maniacally in his head….or would that be Vixen Cain’s preferred action. Either way, my opponents foolishly elected to leave me be….amazing how little respect I get sometimes.”

Ravyn smirks as the crowd cheers a bit.

Ravyn: “But that has led SCW to announce a six person tag match this Saturday. Myself teaming up with Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine against Vixen Cain, Merrick Wiseman and the man who is behind this latest turn of events…Dante McCaffery. Where to begin…”

Ravyn sighs.

Ravyn: “I could point out that Dante McCaffery shows that at his heart he still very much is his age as he can’t handle that I have already defeated him, checkmate, if you will, and he’s merely offered me something that makes me willing to fight him again….Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman as one should know, I have wanted another opportunity to repay them for Rise to Greatness…”

Ravyn looks at her leg and bends it up and down.

Ravyn: “It’s fine by the way. Unlike last year.”

Ravyn pauses and holds her finger up.

Ravyn: “But someone else has an issue….and I have an issue with them. Selena….it’s amazing. When Vixen Cain is involved or you want something, we get it and yet, you and I still have much unfinished business. You also have a rib injury. And while I may wish to poke and prod….we owe each other a proper contest and yet I have to trust you this Saturday….and hope that we can work well together…that we have good chemistry. The same with Amy. At least, I can respect Amy, especially as she is willing to respond in kind, yet Selena, I’m still waiting for the rematch from last fall. Were one of your ideas for your shortened World Championship reign to give it to me. You could perhaps feign that and get some fake praise for me as well. Let’s be fair, this Saturday, I am focusing on my opponents who I have personal enmity to them all, just like you and Amy do, but let’s not pretend that my history with them is equal to either of yours. Wiseman and Cain spent two years dethroning me of my US Championship and succeeded. The same title both of you coveted and one of you held. And Dante….he’s a bonus at this point.”

The lights turn a violent shade of red as strobe lighting goes off. The intro to Within Temptation’s “The Howling” kicks in as the big screen lights up with the name ‘Kayla Marie S. Jones’. Ravyn turns and we then see Kayla Jones walk out from the back. Ravyn seems a bit surprised by Kayla’s arrival. She walks down the rampway and to the ring.

Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor clearly has some thoughts about this Saturday, but Kayla Jones seems to be the last person she assumed would come out here.”

Knots: “Yeah, but Kayla Jones has a vested interest in Ravyn Taylor staying in one piece! The Tag Team Championship!”

Kayla Jones hops onto the apron. She then enters the ring. Ravyn looks at Kayla as Kayla walks past her, keeping an eye on her as she then is handed a microphone by Jason Phillips. Kayla then backs up and turns to Ravyn. Kayla steps over to her. Ravyn immediately responds as her music fades out.

Ravyn: “Did I somehow offend you by not giving you your own diatribe?”

Kayla chuckles a bit to herself.

Kayla: “I think that response tells me more than anything else. See, I was going to come out here and point out that we should make sure we’re on the same page. I don’t want our challenge next week to be like Selena and you where you’re peering out your eye, wondering if it’s going to get testy. See, I went back after I found out we won and at first, I was a bit upset. I want to hold those titles with my sister, just like you do with your wife. But then I realized….this is something different. Something unique. Two of the best tag team wrestlers in SCW history teaming together to face off against Honour Code. And I wanted to come out here and give you some support for this Saturday, stand with you….also because Vixen Cain is a misogynistic asshole who deserves every ass-kicking he gets….and also make sure that we could trust each other and at least build some chemistry to give Honour Code a true challenge if not win. But you don’t seem interested in that.”

Ravyn smiles a bi.

Kayla: “Is this a game to you? Another chess match? You’ve beaten Dante and now have your shot at Vixen Cain and Merrick Wiseman…But all of the fun of screwing with Selena too….and then you’re going to screw with me? Is that it? Look, I wanted to come out here and not have to play those games. Give you a shot. This is the hand we’ve been dealt. Fatal Fortunes and all that, but I need to know you’re on the same page or this, somehow and someway will fail.”

Ravyn: “And maybe that’s the challenge for me. To keep it all together even when I really have no interest in teaming with you.”

The crowd boos a bit to this. Kayla looks a bit stunned.

Ravyn: “See Kayla. I’m not here to make friends. This is a situation I’m not pleased with, but I will make the best of it. Just like I assume you will. Now, if we’re on the same page there, that’s one thing. But do not expect strategy sessions and the passing of trade secrets…just like I wouldn’t expect it from you.”

Kayla: “Fine…Good to know where we stand. And this Saturday…good luck. I do actually mean that.”

Just then, we see Merrick Wiseman running down from the back. He runs down to the ring and hops onto the apron. Kayla shoves Ravyn down, seeing him and runs over. Ravyn turns to Kayla and then notices Kayla nailing Merrick, knocking him off. Merrick falls back. Kayla turns around and just then, we see Vixen Cain slide in from the crowd. He runs over and just nails Ravyn in the side of the head with a running boot. Ravyn falls back and rolls over. He turns and Kayla runs at him and Cain sidesteps and throws her up and over the top rope to the floor. Wiseman rolls into the ring, ignoring Kayla.

Sharper: “Wiseman! Cain! They set up an ambush! They’re going for Ravyn Taylor!”

Knots: “Who cares about Kayla? They want to go after Ravyn! Dante’s gotta be loving this!”

Ravyn rolls over and covers up as the crowd boos. Cain stomps her in the back and then again. Wiseman grabs her after Cain stops. Just then, we see Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine run down from the back. Wiseman throws Ravyn into the far corner. Amy and Selena slide in. Selena goes for a clothesline, but Cain ducks and runs to the ropes before diving through the ropes to the floor, landing on his feet. He backs away as Amy runs over and nails Wiseman with a forearm shot. She nails him again and again. She then rears back and goes for a hard right, but Wiseman blocks it and nails Amy with a hard right, knocking her back. Ravyn then suddenly low blows Wiseman. Wiseman staggers forward and Selena runs to the ropes, jumps to the top rope and dives back, nailing Wiseman with the Defying Gravity. The crowd erupts in cheers. Cain just turns to the ring and watches before turning around, showing a bit of anger as he yells out in frustration.

Sharper: “Cain getting out of dodge! But Defying Gravity on Wiseman! Selena gets one!”

Knots: “And they worked together. All three got a shot at Wiseman!”

Kayla hops onto the apron to be safe as Ravyn gets up out of the corner. Selena turns to her as Amy stands between them. They then turn to Cain as Cain just starts to back away.

Sharper: “And this Saturday, Cain won’t be running. He’ll be in the ring and Selena, Amy and Ravyn all will have their shot to get their hands on him.”

Knots: “But Dante will be around too. I guess he did leave. They’ll all be there and it will be a fair fight!”

Sharper: “Fair fight? They attacked Ravyn from behind! They’ll do whatever they can to avoid that!”

The crowd cheers as Selena glances over to Ravyn and Ravyn does the same. Amy focuses on Cain as Wiseman remains down. Kayla watches Ravyn as the scene slowly fades to black.

COMMERCAILS

Syren vs. Christy Matthews

The lights go out leaving the arena in complete darkness. In the darkness we hear the thumping of a heart beating twice. With each beat we see a pink heart on the screens, and pink lights on the stage flashing in unison. After a few more seconds of darkness we hear the heart beating twice more, accompanied by the same lights. A few more seconds of darkness are followed by two more flashes of light, this time in a silhouette against the lights we see the figure of a woman standing. Two more heart beats once again show the silhouette of the woman. The crowd roars and “Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system. The lights come back up as the crowd roars to find Syren standing in the middle of the stage.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one-fall for TV time remaining and is your main event of the evening. First, on her way to the ring, from Los Angeles, California, she is Syren!”

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy

She turns around, pointing at the back of her jacket where we see the words ‘JUST BE JEALOUS’ accompanied by her heart-logo. She spins back around before pointing toward the ring and starting to head down toward it, slapping hands on her way down to ringside. Once at ringside she jumps up onto the apron, looking around again at the cheering fans before ducking down, shaking her ass a little to another cheer from the fans before ducking in under the second rope and walking across the ring, climbing to stand on the middle turnbuckle and raises her hands in to the air. After a few seconds of posing she blows a kiss out to the crowd and jumps down, walking across the ring to the other side where again she stands on the middle turnbuckle, waving at the fans and blowing another kiss out to the crowd. After several more seconds she leaps down, removing her ring jacket and putting it in the corner before jumping up and sitting on the top turnbuckle and calling Jason Phillips over. Phillips hands her the microphone.

Sharper: “Syren in our main event to face Christy Matthews. But we know what this is about.”

Knots: “Is her attacker going to reveal him or herself?”

Syren takes a moment and looks down to the entrance way.

Syren: “Before I get to business here in Oakland…”

The crowd cheers.

Syren: “I said I would call you out every single week until you showed yourself. Whoever attacked me backstage, taking me out for a month with a concussion….show yourself. Here’s your moment! Gloat to my face that you took me out. Take credit!”

Syren looks around and hops down. She steps forward.

Syren: “You’ve got the whole world watching. Even the main event. Come on….”

Syren continues to look at the entrance way. She then starts to glance around the arena. The crowd boos some and Syren just shakes her head before the lights dim in the arena as the screens all cut to black and for a few seconds and there’s nothing but the reaction of the fans heard all around the arena. After a few moments the opening “King of the World” by Porcelain and the Tramps hits the PA system as spotlights begin to flick on and off around the arena. The fans boo loudly as the camera pans through them all and back to the cheap seats in the back of the arena where we see Christy Matthews standing on the guard rail with her arms outstretched in an eerily familiar mock-crucifix pose. Her fists are taped and she looks more than ready for the task ahead. She’s wearing a red jacket the hood pulled up over her head in a style similar to the classic fairytale.

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Overland Park, Kansas, she is Christy Matthews!”

As she jumps down from the guard rail the screens around the arena begin to display familiar wording once more...

...E B D O N E N T E R T A I N M E N T P R E S E N T S...

...C H R I S T Y M A T T H E W S...

She begins to push her way down to ringside as security line the steps down through the crowd, holding back the fans in the way. Christy ignores every one of them as she walks past them, focusing on the ring. She makes her way down to the barricade, leaping over and begins climbing the outside of the turnbuckles, standing on the middle rope, pulling down the hood of her jacket and striking the mock-crucifix pose once more. As the second chorus of “King of the World” hits Christy sings along with the lyrics, continuing to strike the crucifix pose before finally leaping over the top rope and spinning around in the ring, throwing her ring jacket to the outside and collapsing to a seated position in the corner of the ring as the fans cheer. She sits in the corner, looking out at the fans occasionally.

Sharper: “Guess no one coming out to claim responsibility.”

Knots: “I’m surprised by that. Come on. You’re a hero to some backstage!”

Sharper: “Syren now needs to refocus and on Christy Matthews and they’ve been particularly nasty to each other in the last six months. So no love lost there even if they were allies.”

Christy pulls herself up as the bell sounds. Syren then circles the ring with Christy and they lunge, locking up in the middle of the ring with a collar and elbow tie-up. Christy turns and wrenches her arm of Syren. She then wrenches it again and nails him in the side of the head with a forearm shot. She then turns and pushes Syren into the ropes before firing her across. She bounces off and Christy shoulders Syren down. She runs into the ropes, bounces off and Syren rolls towards her. Christy hops over and bounces off the other side and Syren leapfrogs over. Christy ducks under and bounces off the other side. Syren goes for a hip toss. Christy blocks it and takes Syren down. The crowd boos and Syren rolls over.

Sharper: “Syren struggling early. Christy Matthews taking Syren down.”

Knots: “Yeah, well, Christy is pissed off .She’s not Adrenaline Champion anymore!”

Syren gets up and Christy kicks her in the ribs. She then whips her into the ropes. She bounces off and Christy hits a jumping calf kick, knocking her down. She goes for the pin.

She nails Christy with a couple of forearms shots before Christy lifts Syren up and drops her face first onto the top turnbuckle. Syren staggers back and falls into the ropes on the other side of the ring. Christy then gets up as Syren stirs.

Sharper: “Christy just stopping Syren and hard. Face first into the top turnbuckle.”

Knots: “And Syren was rocked. She couldn’t find her footing at all.”

The crowd ohs and boos.

Sharper: “Superplex!”

Knots: “Syren planted. She doesn’t look all the same as she did before. Christy may have her number tonight.”

Sharper: “Or this lack of someone taking responsibility, maybe that’s gotten to her. Christy doesn’t care. She wants to win.”

The crowd roars. The referee calls for the bell and the bell sounds. Syren rolls over as Christy looks up stunned before turning and snapping at the official.

Sharper: “Syren wins it!”

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Syren!”

Knots: “Christy already won though!”

Sharper: “Syren with the small package, caught Christy. And Christy is damn pissed off!”

Knots: “Do you blame her?!”

Syren rolls over and out of the ring. Christy gets up and goes after the official who exits the ring. He goes over and raises Syren’s arm. Syren grimaces and looks up as Christy kicks at the ropes and walks around the ring irate. The crowd continues to cheer Syren as “Groupie” plays throughout the arena. She turns and raises her arms as Christy continues to show her anger in the ring.

Sharper: “Christy Matthew cannot believe it. Syren meanwhile with a big win, distracted or not, manages to pin Christy Matthews.”

Knots: “But who attacked her?”

Sharper: “That question remains. She’ll be there this Saturday for Supreme Saturday. We’ll also see that huge six person tag and Blake Mason and Simon Lyman clash. Supreme Saturday: Just Desserts, this Saturday! We’ll see you there!”

Syren continues to celebrate as she backs up the rampway and the scene slowly fades to black…
