We then see a shot of Katie Steward holding the Women’s Championship before cutting to a shot of Selena Frost hitting Vixen Cain with the Defying Gravity at Supreme Saturday: Just Desserts.

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

MAIN SHOW:

“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 Giovanni Aries hitting Selena Frost and Ravyn Taylor with the Down the Rabbit Hole and then showing Sienna Swann hitting the Slice of Heaven on Jake Starr. This is followed by a shot of Donovan Kayl hitting the Point Blank on an opponent before showing Syren nailing Josh Hudson with a steel chair.

"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 Jake Starr hitting the Shooting Five Starr on Alistaire Allocco inside the Chamber. We cut to a shot of Konrad Raab doing some shadowboxing in the ring before showing Ikiro Yoshida, Derek Adonis and Manvel in the ring with the KABLAMA Sutra. We follow up with a shot of Gable Winchester walking away from Autumn Valentine and Ryan Watson.

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

A shot of Christy Matthews posing in the crowd follows. Sam Raine kicking an opponent is shown before showing Selena Frost hitting Vixen Cain with the Defying Gravity. We then see Ace Marshall nailing someone with the One Eyed Royal.

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

We then see a shot of Alexis Quinne running and attacking Regan Street in the ring.

"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 Ravyn Taylor looking down at herself, while posing in the corner before showing Har Megiddo in the ring. Shots of Kennedy Street standing in the middle of the ring posing, followed by Katie Steward posing and Kennedy Street hitting Syren with the Touch of Class is shown. This is followed with a shot of Regan Street dropping an opponent with the CATastrophe before showing Bree Lancaster nailing Marie Jones with the Classifier, followed by a shot of Blake Mason hitting the Blake Mason Experience on Thirteen before the SCW Breakdown logo comes back up on the screen.

The scene then cuts to show the outside of KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York for a few moments before we cut inside and we see the lights turned out as spotlights circle the arena. We then cut to a shot of fans walking through the concourse in the building and then shots of some fans purchasing merchandise at one of the many stands.

Spirit: “Fatal Fortunes is here. It’s a night where we don’t know what to expect. But tonight and next Wednesday, every title will be on the line. Every match is random. Every stipulation random!”

We cut to see a shot of the inside of the arena again as a video plays on the big screen. We then pan back from the shot to show the SCW Studios in Toronto and Spirit Dansby and Shawn Winters at the desk.

Spirit: “Hello again. Spirit Dansby here with Shawn Winters in our studios in Toronto. We’ll take you to Buffalo momentarily. It’s the start of a yearly tradition. Once a year, for two weeks, SCW leaves it all to fate. Fatal Fortunes is here.”

Winters: “And we’ve love to tell you what to expect. About all we can confirm tonight is that you WILL see the SCW Television Championship on the line. You’ll see some matches, maybe for the first time. Maybe for the last time. We’ve seen classics come out of these shows. We all remember the Standing Room Only /Next Level Ironman Match classic several years ago.”

Spirit: “But it’s all to fate. We can tell you that between this week and next, every title will be on the line. That means World, Tag, Adrenaline, US and TV, the TV Title both weeks.”

Winters: “Along with that, you can see behind us. There’s a steel cage hanging over the ring. I’ve been told that there are other items that were brought specifically for this event.”

Spirit: “And also we’ve had production crew members in the back parking lot. Basically, the crew gets ready for all of the options. And we’ll take you to earlier today…”

EARLIER TODAY:

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. The scene then opens to show with a shot of the back door of a limousine being held open. Two suited guards stand next to the door with the chauffeur before we see Mr. D stepping out of the back of his limousine. He has a locked steel briefcase in his hand. He turns back and Katya, his youngest daughter, steps out too. She steps forward before Sasha, Mr. D’s oldest daughter, steps out. Mr. D turns and nods as the guards surround them.

Spirit: “You see Mr. D holding that briefcase, that steel briefcase, locked. Over the last couple of days, the drawing was done on Friday evening. It was locked in a safe in Mr. D’s office. He personally brought the match list with him, driving down from Toronto to this show.”

Winters: “And Sasha and Katya both here. Surprised by that with Katya in school.”

Spirit: “In any case, SCW even having guards to protect Mr. D to avoid someone trying to tamper with the drawing. After he arrived, he started to arrange the matches, presumably with his daughters, and only they and Dean Black know the order and who is competing. Competitors to be let know minutes before they go out.”

The scene cuts back to show Dansby and Winters in the studio.

Winters: “And if you’re a champion, this is hell. You can’t do the scouting. You can’t be prepared. If you’re a challenger, you need to temper the opportunity in front of you with the cool and calm to get it done. In some cases, you could see people who frankly would need to work up to a shot getting it.”

Spirit: “We’ve also seen rematches of major rivalries in the past. We’ve seen people team with random people, heated rivals or even people they’ve not had much interaction with.”

Winters: “And that becomes unique, also because if you’re a champion or you’re a tag, you have the opportunity to be double booked. You could be booked on both shows. It’s possible to get two opportunities. On top of that, every champion will have a title defense and another match. It’s possible we see some double champions crowned. Who knows what will happen?”

Spirit: “We’ll find out as we go. With their thoughts, let’s go to ringside where Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots are standing by in Buffalo. Gentlemen?”

The scene cuts to a shot inside the KeyBank Center. The camera pans across the crowd before cutting to ringside to the announce table.

Sharper: “Thank you Spirit, Shawn. And Jon, they’re right, we don’t know what to expect.”

Knots: “I talked to Kennedy tonight. She was saying that just like a lot of others, there’s a lot of hope. People are hoping for those shots that they may have to wait for. She said while she doesn’t mind waiting for the World Title, she wouldn’t be sad if she got the shot tonight. There are a few others she would love to face too.”

Sharper: “A sentiment shared by many. We’re not sure what to expect. We’re on this ride along with all of you at home. We’ve basically got a list of the roster in front of us, a list of the champions and we’ll be crossing them off at home as we go.

Sharper holds up a couple of printouts in front of him. Knots points to his.

Sharper: “We encourage all of you to do the same. Let’s go to Jason Phillips who is in the ring to kick us off with our opening match in Fatal Fortunes 2018!”

The bell sounds as we cut to the ring to see Jason Phillips standing in the middle of it.

Phillips: “Your opening contest for Fatal Fortunes 2018 is scheduled for onefall, has a fifteen minute time limit and is for the SCW Television Championship!”

The SCW Television Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner.

Sharper: “Here we go. Starting with the TV Title on the line out of the gate!”

Knots: “Won it last week in our main event. Kicking off Fatal Fortunes finding out who his first challenge will be.”

Sharper: “Talking about Josh Hudson.”

“Judas” begins to filter through the sound system and out from the back steps none other than Josh Hudson, wearing a zip up jacket. The SCW Television Championship around his waist. He stops atop the entrance ramp, and looks out into the crowd and shakes his head, before heading down to the ring.

Phillips: “First, representing Past, Present, Future, from New York City, New York, the SCW Television Champion, Josh Hudson!”

He embraces the negative reaction with outstretched arms as he makes his way down the ramp, his body turned sideways as he faces the crowd with a smirk on his face. He continues to slowly make his way to the ring, a look of determination on his face as he slides underneath the ropes. He climbs to the top rope and stares out into the crowd, shouting, "I'm the best at what I do!!!" before turning and sitting against the turnbuckle, waiting for the match to begin. The referee comes over and Hudson hands him the title. Hudson then turns to the entrance as the official holds it over his head. He then hands it to Phillips.

Sharper: “Josh Hudson all business. He just added the TV Title to the group of titles that Past, Present, Future, and its affiliates hold.”

Knots: “All but the Tag Titles. Lohan Country has them, but a lot of gold over there.”

Sharper: “And he’s watching intently who his opponent could be.”

Phillips: “And his opponent, the challenger…”

The big screen above the entrance springs into life as the lights darken, the only image we see is that of a glistening perfect world logo. We then hear a woman’s voice that sounds a lot like Kelcey Wallace over the P. A System next as she addresses the arena.

“Ladies and Gentleman, Introducing...”

.CHRIS CANNON.

The opening guitar to “Prometheus” by Audio Machine hit’s over the P.A system next with an explosion of sound. There’s a sudden pause and then a spotlight shines down onto the stage where we see Chris Cannon, he stands proudly on the stage with an aura of confidence about him. Josh Hudson smirks as he hops down.

Sharper: “Oh boy!”

Phillips: “Hailing from London, England by way of Hermosa Beach, California, he is Chris Cannon!”

The crowd cheers for the British superstar as he begins to walk down towards the ring with a confident stride in his step. Once at the bottom of the ramp Cannon then slides into the ring and then climbs the nearest turnbuckle and then raises his arm above his head holding a fist as the crowd cheers. He then steps down and looks back at Josh. Josh looks at him and smirks and rubs his hands.

Sharper: “Josh Hudson seems happy about it. Chris Cannon in what would be his second match back.”

Knots: “Talk about going right into the deep end. Gets a shot at one of the hardest titles to defend and against a Hall of Famer!”

Chris Cannon vs. Josh Hudson

SCW Television Championship

Phillips exits the ring. The bell sounds. Hudson and Cannon then start to circle the ring. The crowd cheers as Cannon and Hudson lunge at one another and lock-up in the middle of the ring with a collar-and-elbow tie-up. The two push back against one another before Hudson turns and moves into a side headlock. He smirks. He pulls back as Cannon gets Hudson back to the ropes and fires him off. Hudson bounces off the other side and Cannon shoulders Hudson down. The crowd cheers as Hudson looks up. Cannon turns and runs into the ropes. Hudson gets up but drops down, trying to take out Cannon’s legs, but he hops over them. He bounces off the other side as Hudson gets up and hits a leapfrog. Cannon ducks under and bounces off the other side and Hudson goes for a hip toss. Cannon spins through and sends Hudson over with a hip toss of his own. Hudson rolls over to the ropes as the crowd cheers. Cannon backs up.

Sharper: “Hip toss and Cannon get the better of this opening exchange!”

Knots: “Cannon looks good. Hudson now knows what he’s up against!”

Hudson starts to get up and Cannon watches him before Hudson snaps at the official before turning and lunging at Cannon. They lock up again and push back on one another before Canno turns into an arm wrench. He holds on and jerks on the arm. Hudson winces. Cannon then turns and elbows Hudson in the arm. He turns and pushes him into the ropes and then fires him off. He bounces off the other side and Cannon goes for a back elbow. Hudson ducks and bounces off the other side. Cannon turns and Hudson drops down and goes right for a hard double leg takedown before pulling up on the leg and kicking at it. Cannon pulls away and rolls over, holding his leg. He moves to the ropes and starts to get up and Hudson follows up with a hard right hand. Cannon falls into the corner. Hudson then leans in and chops him. The crowd woos.

Sharper: “Hudson gets Cannon into the corner. Hard chop to follow up.”

Knots: “He got a cold welcome from Casterillo. He’s getting a colder one from Hudson now.”

Hudson forearms him in the jaw before then whipping him across the ring. Cannon hits the opposite corner. Hudson follows up and walks over and kicks him in the ribs. He then takes his forearm and runs it across the bridge of Cannon’s nose and he turns away in pain, holding his face. He spins around and Hudson grabs him, scoops him up and slams him in the middle of the ring. He goes for the pin.

Cannon kicks out. Cannon starts to get up and Hudson watches him and nails him with a hard forearm shot. Cannon falls back to the ropes. Hudson then nails him again and Cannon falls to a knee. Hudson places Cannon’s throat on the middle rope and he starts to choke him.

Sharper: “Hudson now just choking Cannon.”

Knots: “Not just that, but going for the throat in the process. All that pressure on what took Cannon out in the first place!”

Sharper: “The piledriver by Blake Mason two years ago. Blake already offering Chris an opportunity to face him for closure when Chris is ready.”

Hudson steps off. He walks around as Chris turns and leans against the ropes. He coughs a bit, holding his throat before starting to get up and Hudson then walks over and grabs him, pulls him away from the ropes and hits a snap suplex. He floats over for the pin.

Cannon kicks out again. He turns and Hudson looks down. He then gets up and stomps at Cannon’s leg. Cannon rolls over in pain.

Shraper: “Hudson just going back to the leg. This is why he’s a former World Champion.”

Knots: “Always thinking. Always finding another weakness. And he’ll create fourteen others along the way.”

Cannon stirs and Hudson grabs him. He then kicks him in the leg. Cannon winces and Hudson walks over and grabs him. He goes for a kneebreaker. He hoists Cannon up, but Cannon turns and counters into a sunset flip.

Hudson kicks out. Both roll back. Hudson gets up and lunges for a clothesline. Cannon ducks. Both turn around and Cannon hoists Hudson onto his shoulders before turning and hitting a Lion’s Bite. The crowd cheers. Cannon turns and gets up. Hudson stirs and holds his ribs. He turns around to Cannon and Cannon runs at him and nails him with a running clothesline. The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Hard clothesline. Cannon takes down Hudson!”

Knots: “And this crowd just lost it. How can they not like Hudson?!”

Sharper: “I can name a few reasons.”

Cannon turns and Hudson starts to get up and Cannon scoops him up and slams ihm down. He turns and exits to the apron. He then climbs up to the top rope. Hudson slowly gets up and Cannon dives off and hits a diving leg drop takedown. He turns back and hooks the leg.

Hudson kicks out. Cannon looks up and grabs him. He pulls him up. He then hooks him by the head and hits a vertical suplex. Cannon turns and exits to the apron. He turns and climbs up to the top rope. He looks at Hudson as Hudson remains down in pain. He dives off and goes for an elbow drop, but Hudson rolls out of the way. The crowd ohs and Cannon rolls through. He holds his arm and starts to get up and Hudson turns and grabs him and hits an overhead belly to belly suplex.

Sharper: “Hudson moved! And then the suplex. Overhead! No good landing.”

Knots: “Well better than some. He didn’t land on his head. So there’s that!”

Hudson turns and hooks the leg.

Cannon gets his shoulder up. The crowd cheers. Cannon starts to get up and Hudson does too and immediately Hudson grabs Cannon’s arm, the same he elbowed into the mat and drives him down, locking in the Lost Reality. The crowd boos as Cannon reaches out, yelling in pain. Hudson smirks as he pulls back.

Sharper: “Now the Lost Reality!”

Knots: “More pressure on the neck and going right for the arm Cannon helpfully drove into the mat!”

Cannon keeps reaching as Hudson keeps pulling back as Cannon starts to move himself and slowly pull himself to the ropes. The crowd cheers for Cannon as he moves a bit closer. Hudson keeps holding on. Cannon gets another bit closer and another before reaching out and grabbing the bottom rope. The crowd cheers.

Hudson lets go and rolls off. He looks around as the crowd boos him. He smirks as Cannon grabs at the ropes. He starts to pull himself up and Hudson turns and grabs at him in a waistlock. He jerks him away from the ropes and goes for a German suplex, but Cannon blocks it. He tries again. Cannon blocks it again and then elbows him in the jaw and then again. He shakes out his arm as Hudson staggers around and turns and Cannon grabs him and whips him into the corner. Cannon runs at him and nails him with the Cannon Fodder. The crowd ohs and Hudson just stumbles out before collapsing to the mat.

Sharper: “Oh my! What a boot to the side of the head. Cannon Fodder connects!”

Knots: “Jesus. He tried to see if he could remove Hudson’s head with his boot!”

Cannon steps out and walks along the ropes. He turns around as Josh rolls over, holding his jaw. He staggers to his feet as the crowd roars and Cannon runs at him and goes for the C4. Hudson moves out of the way. Cannon stops at the ropes. He turns around and Josh hoists him up onto his shoulders. He then throws him forward and hits the Kingdom Come. The crowd ohs and Cannon hits the mat. Hudson drops down and hooks the leg.

The crowd roars and boos as the bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, and STILL SCW Television Champion, Josh Hudson!”

The crowd boos as Hudson rolls off. He smirks and gets up. He then looks around and stumbles forward and the referee is handed the TV Championship. He turns and hands it back to Josh. Josh takes it and holds it over his head. The crowd boos some more.

Sharper: “Kingdom Come ending Cannon there. Cannon missed the spear and Hudson caught him.”

Knots: “Big miss. Hudson had enough left after that kick. Even if his head was in the fourth row!”

Sharper: “He’s still the TV Champion. He wins the first match at Fatal Fortunes and next week, he’ll defend the title again!”

Cannon remains down in pain as Hudson continues to hold the title over his head as the cameras focus on him. The boos echo all around the arena before the scene switches backstage.

Backstage, Xander Valentine is shown walking into the arena. The crowd roars seeing him.

Sharper: “Wait a minute! Xander Valentine? He’s not under contract!”

Knots: “Didn’t he used to come from Rochester? Maybe we’ve got some tryouts?”

Sharper: “At Fatal Fortunes?”

Knots: “I don’t know. But he’s running late whatever!”

Sharper: “We’ll try to figure out what is going on here, when we return!”

The scene fades out to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns and we see Xander Valentine standing backstage, looking up, rolling his eyes as the camera pans back to see Alistaire Allocco talking to him.

Allocco: “You know, when I used to watch as a kid, I always remembered that I didn’t want to be like you. I mean, don’t get me wrong. You were dominant. Almost as dominant in the ring as I am today. But it was your attitude. While with things like New Blood Rebellion…Blood…Rebellion…totally unnecessary. But it’s good to see that you’re starting to mature with age and that-“

Xander suddenly grabs Alistaire by the throat. He then steps forward.

???: “Whoa. Xander!”

Xander stops and slowly lets go. Alistaire coughs a bit and steps back.

Alistaire: “I guess I was wrong. Better hope I don’t face you in Fatal Fortunes…wait…are you even in it.”

Mr. D then walks over to Xander and Alistaire.

Mr. D: “Yes, he is. You can go now.”

Alistaire turns and walks off, coughing a bit. Mr. D turns to Xander.

Mr. D: “I hope you realize how unusual this is. But admittedly, I may have been rash for someone who was considered an SCW legend.”

Xander turns away briefly, annoyed by that tone.

Mr. D: “So, it’s simple…whatever your fate draws, you take care of what you need to, you get your job back. I need people who are hungry here. Got it?”

Xander just looks at Mr. D.

Mr. D: “Look, with the talent out there, I need to ensure SCW has the best. Not people looking to coast…And next week, show up on time please…that is if you’re not booked tonight.”

Mr. D turns and walks off. Xander just lets out an annoyed sigh as he looks up for a moment and then starts to walk off as we cut away.

Breakdown returns to the ring as we see the steel cage being placed in position as spotlights circle on it. The crowd looks on.

Sharper: “You can see that we’re wasting no time using some of the extra items brought in for this show. The steel cage set up around the ring.”

Knots: “Jesus. We’re trying to kill people early!”

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for onefall, has a fifteen minute time limit and is a steel cage match!”

The crowd cheers.

Phillips: “First, on their way to the ring…”

“Seizure of Power” by Marilyn Manson hits the speakers as olive lights flicker around the arena, smoke and sparks fills the entrance ramp as Dustin Adams steps into the smoke. He allows it to cover him before letting out a primal roar and extending his arms up and looking focused.

Phillips: “From Detroit, Michigan, is the Inmate, Dustin Adams!”

He slowly walks down towards the ring. He walks over to the door of the cage and smirks before walking up the steps and into the cage. He steps quickly into the ring looking ready for a fight. He loosens up in the ring before getting ready to face his opponent.

Knots: “At least he’s comfortable in there!”

Sharper: “Dustin Adams on his way to the ring. At least we know Andrew Raynes can’t be too much of a factor. Unlike last week.”

Phillips: “His opponent…”

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

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

“Miss Nothing” by The Pretty Reckless begins playing across the PA system as the fans give a mixed reaction. After a few seconds Autumn Valentine walks out onto the stage with a smile on her face, standing in the middle of the spotlights for a moment before spinning around and holding out her arms downward.

Phillips: “Accompanied by Ryan Watson, from Memphis, Tennessee, she is Miss Nothing, Autumn Valentine!”

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy

Autumn spins back around, seemingly enjoying the negative crowd reaction. She stands for a moment before looking back over her shoulder. The fans roar gets louder as she’s joined on the stage by Ryan Watson. Watson holds her hand as the two of them head to the ring. Once at ringside, Autumn looks into the cage. He then walks up the steel steps and enters into the cage. Ryan looks on from the floor. She enters into the ring, removing her jacket and handing it to Ryan. She turns back to Dustin.

Sharper: “We’ve not see Autumn Valentine since she lost the TV Title at Rise to Greatness weekend. An interesting return for her to be part of this match.”

Knots: “And is she ready for something like this? This seems more like Dustin’s domain than hers?”

Autumn Valentine vs. Dustin Adams

Steel Cage Match

The ref calls for the bell as Dustin explodes out of the corner, going for a clothesline but Valentine dunks under. She then hits a quick dropkick to the knee. Dustin drops to one knee as Valentine bounces off of the ropes and connects with a forearm smash. She then hooks the leg.

Dustin powers out of the pin and rolls over to one knee as Valentine gets to her feet. Dustin rises and Valentine hits another dropkick to the knee, then another. Valentine then grabs Dustin and plants him with a DDT. She goes for another cover.

Valentine kicks out!

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine was using her speed to her advantage, keeping the big man grounded, but Dustin Adams coming back with brute force.”

Knots: “I guess it is true what they say. Size does matter.”

Dustin grabs Valentine off of the mat and whips her into the corner, connecting with a running big boot. Valentine goes to stumble out of the corner, but Dustin pushes her back into the corner. He drives his shoulder into her ribs three times, then delivers an elbow.

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine seems to be in a bad situation. Adams not letting her out of the corner.”

Dustin lifts Valentine up onto the top turnbuckle. Dustin smirks at the crowd, as he stands on the second rope, before hooking Valentine. Dustin begins to lift Valentine, going for a superplex. Valentine slowly stands on the top rope before driving a knee into Dustin’s face. Dustin lets go of Valentine, using the ropes to maintain his balance only for Valentine to kick him in the face once more. Dustin falls back onto the mat.

Knots: “Nobody puts baby in the corner. Well, in this case, Autumn Valentine.”

Valentine climbs to the top rope and leaps off, going for Nightfall, only for Dustin to roll out of the way. Valentine hits the mat and rolls through. She gets to her feet only for Dustin to come up and connect with an axe kick. Dustin then grabs Valentine off of the mat. He looks out at the crowd then the cage wall before delivering a fall away slam, sending Valentine into the cage. Valentine crumples to the mat.

Sharper: “Dustin Adams punishing Autumn Valentine here tonight, folks.”

Dustin grabs Valentine and whips her into the ropes, going for another big boot. Valentine dunks under and bounces off of the ropes, connecting with another forearm smash, staggering Dustin. Valentine grabs Dustin and goes for a springboard tornado DDT, but Dustin maintains his balance as well as a hold of Valentine, before dropping her with the Death Row Slam. Dustin then hooks the leg.

3!!! The ref calls for the bell as Dustin pushes himself off of the mat and proceeds to gloat in the ring, as the crowd boos.

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

Sharper: “Dustin Adams victorious here tonight.”

Knots: “You have to give Autumn some credit. She was crafty, managing to use her quickness to take the big man off of his feet, but in the end, Dustin was able to plant her with the Death Row Slam.”

Adams walks over and shakes the steel cage. He looks around and laughs as Ryan heads over to Autumn. Adams turns and steps past him, glaring at him before stepping over to the door and stepping through. He steps down the steel steps and heads to the back.

Backstage, the scene opens up to see Selena Frost backstage standing next to Jessica Winters. The crowd cheers seeing her.

Jessica: “Jessica Winters here and I’m with Selena Frost and Selena, it’s Fatal Fortunes. It’s a night that you don’t know what could be in front of you. Could be a unique challenge. Could be a title match. But last week, you suggested the US title may be in your sights.”

Selena: “Is that surprising? I’ve made it clear for years that was my focus. Even before I ever considered the World Championship, and that was through the choice of the fans at the End of the Year Special, I wanted to hold that title. Part of that was a function of where I was as a competitor, but part of it was the allure, what it meant.”

Selena pauses for a moment.

Selena: “People can judge me for that all they want. Tonight, next week, whenever my name is called, I’m looking forward to what is in front of me. If I draw a title match…so be it. I’ll admit, I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on Bree or Sienna, simply because the two of them need to be knocked down a few pegs. But right now, I’m just waiting to see what my fate holds.”

Jessica: “Thank you for your time and whenever you name is drawn, good luck.”

Selena: “Thank you.”

Jessica: “Fatal Fortunes continues after this.”

The scene then fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns from commercial with a shot of the outside of the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York. The crowd cheers seeing this.

Sharper: “We are live in Buffalo, New York. The first night of Fatal Fortunes!”

Knots: “Yeah and it’s been nuts so far. Who knows what is still to come?”

Sharper: “Everything is random. Every stipulation, competitor, title shots, all of it!”

Knots: “Kinda like the Bills season!”

Sharper: “Well, easy there…”

The camera remains on the shot of the arena for a few moments longer before the scene switches back indoors.

Breakdown returns to the ring to see Jason Phillips in the ring as the referee holds a leather strap in his hand.

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest has a fifteen minute time limit and is a strap match!”

The crowd roars.

Phillips: “First…”

“Just A Dream” by Nelly plays throughout the arena, a gold spotlight with blue flashers begin to circle the entranceway. The two beautiful Twins, London and Paris Truelove walk out holding hands. They look at each other and pose for the cameras before Laura Steinbeck walks out and nods, leading the Twins toward the ring.

Phillips: “From representing the Beauty Factory and accompanied by Laura Steinbeck and London Truelove, from Johannesburg, South Africa, she is Paris Truelove!”

The Twins then make their way down the aisle interacting with the fans as they both get to the apron at the same time, Paris & London both hold the ropes for Laura as she slowly gets in the ring. London follows. London then holds the ropes for Paris as she slowly gets in the ring. They both walk to the turnbuckles, climb to the second ropes and pose for the flashes while Laura stands in the middle of the ring and points to the Truelove Twins. Paris then turns to the official who holds up one end of the strap and she just waves them off and the official points out she needs to put it on. London just turns to the official as the official places one end on Paris’ wrist.

Sharper: “Paris Truelove in singles action in a strap match. At least we don’t need to worry about London and Paris swapping roles easily.”

Knots: “That’s horrible for their modelling careers! What about the welts?!”

Sharper: “The luck of the draw. The question is who will she face?”

Phillips: “Her opponent…”

The opening of “Davidian” by Machine Head begins to play. The crowd roars as Paris turns to the entrance way. Behemoth, Malphas, and Kali emerge from the back.

Phillips: “And her opponent, representing Har Megiddo and accompanied by Behemoth and Malphas, from parts unknown, she is Kali!”

They push and shove each other, yelling “encouragement” as they move down the ramp. Damian is noticeably absent as Kali starts to frantically come to the ring. She chuckles as she rolls in. Malphas and Behemoth end up at ringside and peer into the ring. Kali gets up and looks at London, laughing at her before the referee extends the strap. She takes it and puts it on herself.

Sharper: “Kali will be in action in singles action for the first time and this is going to be interesting.”

Knots: “Kali has to love this. Paris…I’m not sure. And Har Megiddo is at ringside too!”

Kali vs. Paris Truelove

Strap Match

The bell rings, and Kali continues laughing as Paris looks down at the strap attached to her wrist, then back at her sister and Laura on the outside nervously. They clap encouragement at her, but London's face doesn't look very encouraging. Kali pulls her end of the strap tight, then yanks on it, getting Paris' attention. Her arm jerks and she snaps her head around, glaring at Kali. Kali laughs some more, then yanks harder. Paris stumbles forward and Kali nails her with a clothesline. Paris goes down, but gets right back up, fighting to keep the strap from getting tangled in her feet. Kali pulls on the strap again, pulling Paris to her and into her arms. Kali grabs Paris from behind and starts to put the strap around her neck. Paris fights it.

Sharper: “Kali immediately going for a choke here and all the official can do is watch. For those unaware, there is no disqualification. No count out. The only way to win is pinfall, submission, or touching each ringpost consecutively.

Knots: “And that would be no easy task, that strap is only six feet long, I'm told!”

Sharper: “Indeed, imagine having to beat your opponent so badly that they can't stop you from going to each corner, but you have to drag them with you.”

Paris has one hand under the strap, preventing Kali from choking her too badly. Kali doesn't seem to mind, she is still practically cackling. Paris struggles, trying to get the strap off of her neck. Realizing she won't be able to as Kali has leverage standing behind her, Paris pulls her hand out from under the strap, risking further choking, but then reaches up and grabs Kali's head as she bends down, flipping Kali over and down to the mat hard. Laura applauds and London seems relieved. Paris removes the strap from her neck before throwing a kick into Kali's ribs as she tries to get up. Laura slaps the apron and yells.

Laura: “You have a legal weapon darling, use it! Beat her Paris!”

Paris looks back at Laura and London, holding some of the strap in her hand. Both nod at her. Paris turns back to Kali, who is starting to get to her hands and knees. Paris tightens her grip on the strap, clenches her jaw, and starts to swing... but Kali just yanks on her side again and Paris' arm wrenches down. Paris yells in pain and goes down to a knee.

Sharper: “Paris seems hesitant to use the strap as a weapon, yet Kali has no issues with it at all.”

Knots: “Paris is probably thinking about what will happen to her scheduled photo shoots if she does swing that thing and Kali gives it right back to her! I'm shocked Laura is encouraging her.”

Sharper: “Meanwhile Har Megiddo seem bored.”

The camera briefly cuts to Behemoth and Malphus, both standing with their arms crossed, watching. Kali laughs as Paris starts to get up. Kali grabs her arm and whips her into the ropes, making sure to let go of the strap. Paris bounces off. Kali takes her down with an arm drag, and keeps her grip on Paris' arm. She then takes the strap and starts to wrap it around Paris' neck again. Laura yells from the apron. Paris though is able to get out of Kali's grip and roll away. She gets to her feet, and Kali scrambles up too. Paris glares at her, now enraged, making a loop with the strap. Kali watches.

Sharper: “I think the multiple choke attempts lit a fire under Paris, she's seeing red here.

Knots: “Looks to me like that's what Kali wanted! She seems almost excited.”

Paris lunges with a scream and swings, nailing Kali across the chest with the strap! The crowd oohs. Kali takes a step back, but then smiles. Paris fumes, and swings again, harder. The crowd oohs again. Kali leans over in pain, her free arm over her chest. Paris goes to swing again, but Kali suddenly reaches out and grabs the strap loop Paris has been swinging! She pulls hard, and Paris stumbles forward, going down to her knee again. Kali then loops the strap like Paris had. She then kicks Paris in the ribs before she can start to get up, knocking her down to all fours. She gives a wicked grin to Har Megiddo as they watch before swinging the strap down hard onto Paris' back. Paris arches her back and yells. Laura screams, and we see London with her hands over her face. Kali doesn't give Paris any time to recover or breathe, she just wails on Paris' back and shoulders, criss-crossing the strap as she swings. Paris finally drops to her stomach and rolls away, trying to avoid any more pelts. Kali doesn't care though, she swings one final time and the strap catches Paris across the face! The crowd oohs. London leaps up onto the apron, reaching out. Laura looks on, horrified.

Sharper: “Someone needs to tell London that this isn't a tag match!”

Knots: “No, it's no DQ, she can just get in there if she wants!”

Laura yells something at London, and she nods then hops down. Kali looks down at Paris as she clutches at her back and starts trying to get up. Once Paris gets to her hands and knees, Kali yanks on the strap, pulling Paris' hand out from under her, and she goes back down. Kali laughs. Paris looks up, pissed. She pushes up to her feet, then grabs Kali's arm and whips her into the ropes. Paris follows behind so she isn't pulled down by the strap. Just as Kali hits the ropes, London hops up again and grabs the strap, preventing Kali from yanking on it to pull Paris off balance. Paris then makes a loop with some of it again and pelts Kali in the chest, then the ribs, then as she leans over in pain, across the back of her shoulders. Paris then throws a knee up into Kali's forehead! Kali flies backwards from the impact and hits the mat on her back. London tosses the strap away and dusts her hands off before hopping down.

Sharper: “That knee strike nearly took Kali's head off! She may want to check for teeth when she gets up.”

Knots: “If she gets up.”

Paris stalks towards Kali, holding the strap tight between her two hands, leaving slack towards Kali just in case she tried to yank on it again. Paris kicks Kali in the ribs one good time, much like a soccer punt. The crowd oohs. London smiles and Laura applauds. Har Megiddo finally show an expression other than boredom... they seem concerned.

Paris drops down to a knee behind Kali and sits her up. She then wraps the strap around her neck, like Kali had done to her a few times early on. Kali struggles, but Paris made sure there was no slack for Kali to get her hand under. She pulls back tight, using the strap across Kali's neck in a sort of rear naked choke variation. Kali struggles more, but Paris leans back and grapevines her legs around Kali, pulling on the strap harder as she does. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Looks like Paris had enough and decided to give Kali a taste of her own medicine.”

Knots: “Kali doesn't seem to like it much, she's fading fast, and London can hardly contain herself.”

London applauds, jumping up and down, as Laura just looks on, grinning. Behemoth jumps onto the apron and has one leg through the ropes ready to make the save for his partner. Kali doesn't see him though and nearly out of breath from the strap around her neck and from struggling, she starts to tap. The official calls for the bell, then goes over to Paris to make her let go. Paris then realizes what happened and lets go.

Phillips: “Here is your winner by submission... Paris Truelove!”

The crowd roars as Paris rolls out, narrowly evading a giant boot from Behemoth as he stomped where she had been seconds before. Paris runs to London and Laura, who both start checking her, looking at her back at the welts.

Sharper: “Paris nearly got her face smashed in after that victory, Behemoth was not happy at the result.”

Knots: “I wonder if Kali had been facing him, saw him coming, if she could have held out a few more seconds for him to make the save?”

Sharper: “It's possible but the result we have is that after one hell of a beating and a few choke attempts on her, Paris Truelove found a way to survive and win.”

Both Behemoth and Malphas are now in the ring checking on Kali, who is getting to her feet. Paris starts up the ramp with London on one side and Laura on the other, one hand overhead in victory. The three back up the ring as Har Megiddo stare them down before we cut away.

THIS WEEK ON TOTAL EMISSARY

We see Sir Corbin and Sir Connor sitting in front of a camera with a blue backdrop, lined with gold. The twins speak…

Sir Corbin: “So Connor and I decided that, if we wanted to make our wrestling comeback, we should start finding some gym program to get back into ring shape.”

Sir Connor: “We’re weren’t happy with our last global run being job boys… losing two-on-one matches to women?”

Sir Corbin: “Not that we’re against women wrestling.”

Sir Connor: “Not at all… but these weren’t the big names. These were middle-of-the-pack names. So our egos took a hit.”

Now as they narrate, we see them walking to a gym.

Sir Corbin: “So we found this alternative yoga studio that was for pairings.”

Sir Connor: “And we figure ‘hey, we’re a tag team… this is for us!”

They walk through the doors and prepare for the yoga session.

Sir Corbin: “And looking around, it looked like a lot of male/female pairings, but that didn’t strike us as weird.”

Sir Connor: “We didn’t have any lady friends to partner with, so we were left having to pair together…”

Then, in the scene, Derek Adonis and Cookie Dreams walk out.

Adonis: “Hello, and welcome to KABLAMaerobics.”

And back in the narration…

Sir Corbin: “There was a chance we went to the wrong studio…”

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns from commercial and the scene cuts to ringside as Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots are at the announce position.

Sharper: “It’s been a heck of a night so far. We’ve had a TV title match, a strap match-“

Knots: “A cage match.”

Sharper: “And I’m crossing people off. Josh Hudson of course, still could be booked again as a champion. He will now have three matches over these two shows. Two title matches at least. One…depends what he draws.”

Knots: “And let’s find out what’s next!”

The scene switches to the ring where Jason Phillips is in the ring.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall, has a twenty minute time limit, and is a fatal fourway match!”

The crowd roars. “Criticize” by Adelita’s Way plays throughout the arena as a robed Kennedy Street slowly comes out from the back. She stands in the entrance way with her back to the ring, looking down, then up and out into the arena. Kennedy then drops the robe, showing her wrestling attire.

Phillips: “First, from Los Angeles, California, she is the Sexy, Flawless Diva, Kennedy Street!”

Kennedy cracks a sexy smirk, she raises her right arm in the air looking up into the rafters as the shower of fireworks rain down behind her. The crowd cheers looking over to the fans and smirks, interacting with them along the way. She continues to make her way down to the ring, before arriving at the apron, crawling in and splits before flipping over and on her feet. Kennedy walks to the ropes and climbs to the second turnbuckle and looks around smiling while posing as the crowd roars. Kennedy jumps down smiling to the crowd and waves her hair to the side as she stands in the corner, extending her long muscular legs, doing her pre-match stretches, preparing for the match.

Sharper: “Kennedy Street out here. Not the title match, but a fatal four way.”

Knots: “Well there goes my hope! But who knows who she’ll be up against!”

“All Around The Stars” by Mercy Drive begins to play throughout the arena. Manvel suddenly appears on the Tron as he hops out from the back and poses at the entranceway. Manvel starts making his way down to the ring trying to kiss all the girls, most of them slap the greaser wrestler who wears more body oil than a 2-pound Chicken Fryer.

Phillips: “Next, representing the Golden Triangle, from Miami Beach, Florida, he is Manvel!”

Manvel hops around excited as he gets a mixed reaction of cheers and boos. He slides into the ring literally and gets up, he poses and hops on to the second turnbuckle as the crowd boos and cheers. He hops back down and starts to talk to the referee while showing off his MANLy abs and Mantastic physique. He turns to Kennedy, showing himself off as Kennedy shakes her head.

Sharper: “Manvel in this one.”

Knots: “Oh God…Kennie’s in trouble. He knows the secrets of the KABLAMA Sutra. He’s a twenty-third degree black belt.”

Sharper: “Wait, what?”

Knots: “Exactly! The belts double for BDSM ties. But he’s got the mastery of oil!”

The screech of a vulture is heard over the loud speaker before the opening guitar riff of Stitched Up Hearts’ “Is This The Way To Hell” comes shredding through. The fans start to anticipate who is going be walking through the curtain, but before that even happens the song is interrupted briefly...

Man's Voice: "Nine - one - one, what is your emergency?"

Crissy Gardner: "I just (thr)illed everybody!"

As the song resumes the fans in the arena cheer as the lights in the arena as pair of strobe lights situated on the left and right side of the stage start to flash. The one on the light is purple in color while the one on the right is white, but the pair are flashing alternatively to give the illusion that they are custom cop car lights. A spotlight focuses on the center of the stage where Crissy Gardner is standing with both of her arms raised in the air. She's wearing nearly complete black wrestling attire with the exception of purple accents. As she just stands there listening to the fans cheer her she starts to bring down her arms and she starts loosening up her wrists while yelling to the fans that she's about to knock someone's ass out to get them even more pumped up. She starts to make her way down the ramp.

Phillips: “Next, from New York City, New York, she is the Serial Thrilla, Crissy Gardner!”

She continues on her way down to the ring. Crissy pulls herself up onto the apron. Crissy just stands on the apron for several moments as she watches the fans with a smile on her face. Once in the ring Crissy moves to one of the turnbuckles and climbs to the middle turnbuckle pad. She waves her hands towards herself as if she was telling them to come on.

Sharper: “Crissy Gardner getting a bit opportunity here. A chance to face a former World Champion.”

Knots: “Opportunity a big deal in Fatal Fortunes. So far, this is an interesting group.”

Sharper: “To say the least.”

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

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

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

Phillips: “Finally, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, he is the Cornerstone of Professional Wrestling, Donovan Kayl!”

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

Knots: “Thank God! Kennedy and Donovan in this one!”

Sharper: “Trinity Street warned Kennedy about Dante. Donovan Kayl has issues with Damian Angel. They at least each have an ally in that ring.”

Knots: “Well Kayl was thinking about hanging it up and I know Kennedy wanted to face him once more, so I guess fate is on her side there.”

Sharper: “With two others. Manvel and Crissy in this one. And both can surprise you. For Crissy, she’s been accomplished elsewhere, never found her feet in SCW. Manvel, I know that sounds odd, but-“

Knots: “One MANkick and you’re screwed!”

Donovan Kayl vs. Kennedy Street vs. Crissy Gardner vs. Manvel

The referee calls for the bell and all four competitors eye one another, before Manvel steps forward, placing his hands on his head as he proceeds to gyrate.

Knots: “Well that is one way to get things started. He is distracting everyone with the movement of his hips and let’s be honest here…those hips don’t lie.”

Kayl steps up and delivers a kick to the abdomen then lands a forearm. Gardner charges towards Kennedy, who steps up and lands a spinning heel kick, sending Gardner to the mat. Kayl hooks Manvel and takes him down with a vertical suplex. Kayl gets to his feet to find Kennedy standing behind him. The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Two of the most respected athletes in this business. Donovan Kayl and Kennedy Street who competed for the SCW World title at Taking Hold of the Flame. They had one heck of a match.”

Knots: “Let’s not forget that Kennedy walked away with the win and the title. But Kayl did well.”

Sharper: “You have to also wonder if Kayl should be concerned with Damian Angel making his presence felt here during this match. Not to mention the Network as they have been targeting Kennedy.”

Kayl and Kennedy lock up. Kayl takes Kennedy down to the mat with a side headlock. Kayl quickly transitions into a crossface. The ref checks on Kennedy who shakes her head no. Kennedy manages to roll Kayl over onto his back and the ref counts.

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

Kennedy gets to her feet as the ref raises her hand. Kayl gets to his feet and meets Kennedy in the middle of the ring. Kayl lifts Kennedy’s other hand.

Sharper: “A true touch of class right there. Kayl showing his respect for Kennedy Street.”

Knots: “Kennedy Street with the win. That’s my girl for those of you who didn’t know, or just needed a friendly reminder.”

The scene cuts backstage to see Marie Jones sitting in her locker room, looking around, rubbing her face with her hands. She takes a deep breath.

Sharper: “There you see Marie Jones. One of the many waiting to see what may await her in Fatal Fortunes!”

Knots: “And if last week is any indication, she’s starting to come more and more unwound.”

The scene then switches to show Lohan Country in their locker room, the SCW World Tag Team Championship in front of them.

Sharper: “The Tag Team Champions still to be on the line. World Title, US Title. Adrenaline Championship. Much more to come. Lohan Country looking to be in action. Fatal Fortunes continues after this!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see shots of Slayter McKinney, Konrad Raab, Owen Cruze, Sam Raine and Crissy Gardner talking backstage.

Sharper: “Breakdown continuing here. Fatal Fortunes. You see more of the roster. All waiting to see when they’ll be called to the ring and what awaits them…”

The scene continues to play out for a few moments before cutting back to the ring.

Back in the ring, Jason Phillips stands in the middle of it.

Phillips: “The following contest is schedule for onefall and is a Parking Lot Brawl for the SCW Adrenaline Championship!”

The SCW Adrenaline Championship logo comes across the screen.

Knots: “So that’s why we had a group of valets moving people’s vehicles around. We get to find out who the front office hates!”

Sharper: “Adrenaline Title on the line too!”

The scene switches backstage.

Thirteen vs. Andrew Raynes

Parking Lot Brawl

SCW Adrenaline Championship

Several cars can be seen arranged in a circle, some with their headlights on to light up the center of the ring. SCW official Steve Hollinsworth is in the middle of it. The camera cuts to show Andrew Raynes, holding his SCW Adrenaline Championship, starting to walk into the area with Dustin Adams alongside him. Raynes just looks around and scoffs.

Raynes: “So this is where I’m defending my title…Who’s the poor bastard joining me for this?”

Raynes walks forward and looks around before walking between two cars and into the center. Adams leans against the car.

Raynes: “Yo…so let’s get this clear…what are the rules for…this?”

Hollinsworth: “You can do whatever you want. Use the cars how you want. Whatever weapons…help…”

Raynes smirks and turns to Dustin.

Raynes: “This should be easy.”

Raynes then slides the SCW Adrenaline Championship down to his hand.

Raynes: “So where’s my victim?”

Hollinsworth: “Should be here soon.”

Raynes: “Good.”

Raynes looks around as he places the SCW Adrenaline Championship on the hood of one car. He then walks over and turns to another car and grabs at the handle. It doesn’t open before turning back to the car he put the title belt on and opening the door. He smirks before slamming it.

Knots: “Hey! Sharper. Isn’t that your Ford?”

Sharper: “I drove an SUV, Jon.”

Knots: “Damn. I was hoping Raynes could do me a favour. Although, that Honda has to be Phillips. That’s one step above a Geo.”

Sharper: “You heard the official. Anything goes in this. Adrenaline Title on the line. Raynes seems to be looking forward to it. Taking place in the Illinois Street Parking Garage right next to the KeyBank Arena here.”

Raynes then walks around.

Adams: “Look!”

Raynes turns as from the shadows, Thirteen walks forward to the cars and steps between two of them and looks across at Andrew Raynes. Raynes starts to chuckle and looks at Thirteen.

Raynes: “Oh this is going to be fun.”

Thirteen smiles slightly before Raynes then lunges at Thirteen and Thirteen ducks a clothesline attempt. Raynes stops and turns and Thirteen nails him in the ribs with a hard right before turning and running him into the hood off a van. Raynes stumbles back and Thirteen nails him with a hard right. Adams then moves in and kicks Thirteen in the ribs.

Thirteen vs. Andrew Raynes

SCW Adrenaline Championship

Sharper: “Raynes went for Thirteen. Thirteen challenging for the title. But look at that! Adams getting involved.”

Knots: “It’s allowed!”

Sharper: “I know, but still…”

Adams then clubs him in the back and then again. Raynes gets up and Adams turns and throws him into Raynes and Raynes grabs him and nails him with a hard right and then another before turning and pushing him hard back into the front of a Sedan car. Thirteen falls to a knee. Raynes then nails him with a hard right and then another. Adams watches, cracking his fists as Raynes then smacks Thirteen. He pulls him up and spins him around and runs him into the hood of a Ford, causing Thirteen to roll up it and down to the concrete. Thirteen rolls over and Andrew Raynes grabs him and runs him and face first into the hood of another car and Thirteen stumbles between them. He grabs at the car as Andrew Raynes follows after and Thirteen suddenly opens the door and swings it into Raynes. Raynes falls over as the crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Good lord! The car door into the body of Raynes.”

Knots: “And here comes Adams again. Adams letting Raynes have the fun and then making sure it stays that way!”

Adams walks over and Thirteen closes the door and stomps Raynes in the face. Raynes falls over and Adams then grabs Thirteen and nails him in the ribs with a shot and then another before pushing him back behind the car. He then spins him around and throws him back first into the back of the car. Thirteen stumbles forward. Adams then turns and grabs him and scoops him up and onto his shoulder, but Thirteen immediately locks in the Last Breath. The crowd watching in the arena roars as Thirteen pulls back and manages to trip Adams down, causing him to fall to the ground.

Sharper: “Adams working over Thirteen, but Thirteen countered and has the Last Breath locked in!”

Knots: “He got that in super fast and Adams is fading!”

Adams reaches around, struggling as Thirteen keeps pulling back. Adams starts to go limp as Thirteen keeps pulling back, a cold look on his face. Just then, we see Raynes running over and stomping Thirteen in the face and then again and again. Thirteen finally lets go and Adams rolls over. Raynes stomps him in the face again. He turns back and checks on Adams.

Raynes: “Dustin!”

He shakes him and grits his teeth in annoyance before turning back as Thirteen gets up. He nails him in the ribs before grabbing him by the head and spinning him hard into the back of the neighbouring pickup truck. He then grabs him and drags him around the truck and back over before driving him face first into the next car’s trunk. He then drags him around before stopping and spinning him around and driving him face first through the driver’s side door window. The crowd ohs as Thirteen just falls back down to the floor. Raynes goes for the pin.

Sharper: “That window exploded with Thirteen’s head going through it!”

Thirteen kicks out. Raynes looks up and then looks at the vehicle and reaches through the now broken window and opening it up. He then grabs Thirteen and places his body into the door opening and slams the door onto him. Thirteen drops down. Raynes then smirks as he walks back and pulls the door wide open and looks at Thirteen. Raynes walks in front of the vehicle and then turns around and kicks the door, causing it to slam violently shut, with Thirteen just narrowly moving out of the way. The crowd ohs.

Knots: “Jesus! Raynes just tried to end Thirteen’s career there!”

Sharper: “The velocity and Raynes knows. He needs to just beat Thirteen quickly. He’s capable of surprises like what happened to Dustin!”

Thirteen starts to get up and Raynes walks over to him and Thirteen lifts him up and runs him forward and down to the concrete in the middle of the ring. Thirteen rolls through. He then starts to get up and Raynes rolls over. He takes a swing, but Thirteen ducks and then lifts Raynes up and spears him into the hood of the nearby Sedan. Raynes lands hard. Thirteen then climbs up onto the hood. He grabs Raynes and drags him up. He then spins him around and hoists him up in a German suplex onto the roof of the car! He tries to bridge. The referee tries to count.

Raynes rolls his shoulder up and rolls right off the car. Thirteen then turns and steps onto the car.

Sharper: “A German suplex on the roof of the car!”

Knots: “Someone needs a new rental! Jesus. That roof is caved in!”

Raynes walks around and Thirteen then jumps off the hood of the car and tackles Raynes down. He rolls through and then starts to get up. Raynes turns and Thirteen runs at Raynes and Raynes turns and sidesteps him, grabbing his head and driving it face first into the side mirror, causing it to snap off as the crowd ohs. Thirteen falls down to the ground, holding his face.

Sharper: “They are destroying these cars with their body! Thirteen’s head took that window off!”

Knots: “Raynes seems to be at home there.”

Sharper: “No doubt and he’s already thinking of some other things to do. No cover on Thirteen.”

Raynes then looks at him and staggers over. He then turns and grabs at the door. He pulls it open, realizing its unlocked before smiling and grabbing Thirteen. He drags him over and then opens the door and grabs the seatbelt. He places it around Thirteen neck before slamming the door on the seatbelt. Thirteen holds the seatbelt as it chokes him.

Sharper: “He’s choking Thirteen with that seatbelt!”

Knots: “Holy crap…and look! Taking shots at Thirteen too. Thirteen can’t defend himself!”

Thirteen struggles and Raynes pushes on his face before nailing him with a hard right and then another and another before Thirteen suddenly reaches out and grabs Raynes’ throat by his hand. The crowd in the arena roar as Raynes struggles for a moment before kicking Thirteen in the ribs. Raynes staggers back. Thirteen manages to reach down, opening the door and sliding out. He drops down as the camera cuts to show Adams starting to stir, coughing as Raynes grabs Thirteen. He drags him out into the middle of the parking lot. He then looks around before turning and going to run him all the way across it and into one of the cars. Thirteen hits hard and leans on the hood. Raynes then walks around before smirking and running at Thirteen and Thirteen turns and lifts him up and hits a huge back drop onto the hood of the car and shattering the windshield. The crowd ohs and Raynes grimaces in pain. Thirteen turns and climbs onto the hood for the pin.

Sharper: “Another broken window. This time with Rayne’s body!”

Knots: “And Thirteen going for the pin.

Raynes gets his shoulder up. Thirteen looks up. He then grabs Raynes and slowly lifts him up. He then turns and lifts him up before falling back, while looking back and driving Raynes into the hood of the neighbouring truck. Thirteen then starts to drag Raynes up to his feet, dragging him onto the top of the car. Thirteen drags Raynes so Raynes is on the roof, only for Raynes to hit a quick kick to Thirteen’s legs and Thirteen falls shoulder first through the windshield. The crowd ohs. Raynes looks around before grabbing Thirteen. He slowly pulls him up before looking behind him. He tries to reposition as best as he can on the roof and using the destroyed windshield to step on gingerly and places Thirteen’s head between his legs. He then looks around before suddenly Thirteen lifts him up and back drops Raynes into the bed of the truck. The crowd roars in the arena. Thirteen falls to his knees, his arm bloodied from the broken glass.

Sharper: “Raynes into the back of the truck!”

Knots: “Jesus! They’re destroying each other over the Adrenaline Title. We have broken windows all around. SCW’s insurance with Hertz is going up by the second in this one. You can kiss the damage deposit.”

Sharper: “Something tells me getting rentals for an SCW wrestler after this one is going to be pretty difficult!”

Knots: “And Thirteen’s even bleeding on that. The detailing alone!”

Sharper: “Cut on the arm from the broken windshield. Dented roofs. Broken windows. Broken mirrors.”

Thirteen then rolls off the car, landing on his feet. He staggers into the neighbouring car before turning and walking over to the back of the truck. He undoes the tailgate and reaches in to grab Raynes, but just then, we see Thirteen get drilled with a superkick to the jaw. Thirteen falls over and to the concrete. The crowd in the arena boos. The camera turns to see the Masked Man that has been with Dark Fantasy standing over Thirteen before turning and running off.

Sharper: “God damn it! That Masked Man!”

Knots: “Getting revenge for Apocalypse. And Thirteen, when he comes to, isn’t going to be pleased!”

Sharper: “I’m just stunned that they helped someone affiliated with Past, Present, Future.”

Knots: “Maybe a way for Ravyn to get under Raynes’ skin.”

Sharper: “And not like this…come on!”

Raynes rolls over and onto the tailgate before falling to the ground. He then looks around as Thirteen holds his jaw and Raynes goes for the pin.

The crowd boos as the bell in the arena sounds.

Hollinsworth: “Andrew Raynes is the winner!”

Sharper: “Hollinsworth announcing Raynes as the winner. An assist, but he continues his reign!”

Knots: “In a war though! What a start to the first quarter of Fatal Fortunes!”

Dustin Adams staggers over, coughing as Raynes starts to get up. He looks around and he storms over to where he left the Adrenaline Championship and grabs it. He holds it over his head. He then staggers over before looking back at Thirteen as the scene fades out.

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

Voice: “Still to come on Breakdown!”

Shots of Sienna Swann, Syren, Regan Street, Bree Lancaster, Katie Steward, Lohan Country, Owen Cruze, Bianca Evans, Christy Matthews, Selena Frost, Alexis Quinne, Blake Mason, Kennedy Street, Ikiro Yoshida and others come up on the screen.

Voice: “Fatal Fortunes continues from Buffalo!”

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen and the scene cuts to commercial.

“Immortals” plays in the background as the camera pans down from the ceiling to show Spirit Dansby and Shawn Winters at the desk in the SCW Studios. The camera focuses on them as Spirit then speaks and their nameplates come up on the screen.

Spirit: “Fatal Fortunes starting up tonight in Buffalo. We are here in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Spirit Dansby and Shawn Winters here. We’ll be back in Buffalo for more randomness or chaos or whatever you want to this call this in a moment. But let’s talk about what we’ve seen. Two titles already defended. Two big surprises there and some unique stipulations.”

Winters: “How about that parking lot brawl. One of those matches I’m glad I’m not wrestling in. Kids. Go outside and jump on the roof of your parents car! Play with the mirrors. Just kneel down in the bed of a truck.”

Spirit: “Don’t do those things!”

Winters: “Well I’m trying to help them appreciate what Thirteen and Andrew Raynes did to each other. They’re going to be feeling that one. Hell. Andrew Raynes probably has track marks on his back from the bed of that truck! It’s not fun!”

Spirit: “It was a hard fought battle. One that was a brawl in every sense and one that sees Andrew Raynes making his seventh consecutive title defense.”

Winters: “When he returned, we weren’t sure what we had. His new attitude, it’s paying off. And now, he’s held that title since Retribution and doesn’t look to be holding up.”

Spirit: “And the Masked Man strikes again. SCW knows who it is. We know that. They had to get access to the backstage entrance.”

Winters: “And the parking lot brawl, that was in a closed area. So we should find out soon.”

Spirit: “But other than that, still not been called to compete. That will be fun to see. A lot of people not yet. But we started off with what could be considered by some a dream match for the TV Title.”

Winters: “Still the champion is Josh Hudson. Chris Cannon tried, but you can see some rust. Not a lot. But enough that someone like Hudson can take advantage. And that’s what makes things scary. Hudson is so good and so experienced. He could be having a long run with that title and next week, we’ll see whoever is next in his way.”

Spirit then holds up her notepad.

Spirit: “Now for those at home, we’re keeping track, just as Adam and Jon are in Buffalo. And so right now, we know the Adrenaline Title and one TV Title match is off the books. We know a World Title match, US Title match, a World Tag Team Championship match, and another TV Title match will take place before Breakdown ends next week.”

Winters: “And a lot of people still not booked. Five matches so far, twelve people appearing. Ten of them out of any sort of World Title shot for example. Both Josh and Andrew can be booked again.”

Spirit: “Sienna Swann said she would face anyone and prove how good she is. She’s ready.”

Winters: “She can think that all she wants. Still has to deal with whatever may come out and the stipulation. We’ve already seen a cage match, a strap match, a parking lot brawl.”

Spirit: “And that’s the scary part. Add how many other people are still to come.”

Winters: “This is one of those nights you just sit back and see what happens.”

Spirit: “And plenty more to see and watch. What will happen tonight as Fatal Fortunes continues! Sit back and enjoy!”

Winters then leans back, puts his feet up on the desk and leans back. Spirit just looks at him.

Winters: “What?”

Spirit shakes her head.

Spirit: “We’ll be back after this.”

The camera pans back as the scene fades to black.

The scene opens up with a panning shot of the inside of the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York.

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown in Buffalo. Fatal Fortunes back at you. We don’t know what to expect for this second half of the show. Everything is random.”

Knots: “Chaos personified. I’m ready.”

Sharper: “Whether we are or not, here we go!”

The scene cuts to the ring to see Jason Phillips.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty minute time limit and is for the Number One Contendership to the SCW World Tag Team Championship!”

The crowd roars.

Sharper: “A title shot on the line. And random teams.”

Knots: “Could be tag teams. Could be individuals. Who knows what this could be!”

Sharper: “Every tag team that is registered with SCW’s front office, they’ve been put in a team and as singles. Opportunities in both realms could take place for those.”

“Scarlet” begins to play as the entire arena in engulfed in red lighting, feeling so much like a thick red veil has overtaken the arena that it's suffocating. Through the smoke that begins to cover the stage, Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant slowly saunter out onto the stage hand-in-hand and hips bumping as they walk, drawing the gaze of every fan in the arena as they are entranced by this sight. Scarlet slowly turns to Ruby with a smirk and slowly starts running a hand up and down her body, trying to intentionally shift some of the focus over to her as Ruby just smiles back at her, and when Scarlet rises back to full height the two share a brief but passionate kiss before they begin heading down to the ring, Scarlet catching the lingering gaze of some of the fans and winking to them as Ruby just keeps her smile, pleased that Scarlet's enjoying herself.

Phillips: “First, they are the team of Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant, Red Empire!”

As they reach ringside Scarlet slowly walks up the steps before stepping between the top and second ropes, taking her sweet time with it to show off not only her ample display of cleavage but also the greatest ass god himself ever created for a woman. She then spreads her legs as she leans back against the ropes and allows Ruby to slide into the ring between her legs. Ruby slowly twists around and rises as Scarlet approaches, taking Ruby's hands to run them up along her own body as well. This ends with the two of them locking lips again, one leg slowly rising from each of them before they separate. As the lights return to normal, Scarlet saunters over to try and start flirting with the referee as the look on Ruby's face changes, making it clear that at least she's flipped the switch and is ready for war.

Sharper: “Big opportunity as we’re back here in Buffalo. World Tag Team Championship opportunity will be on the line here.”

Knots: “Red Empire already has an advantage. They’re out first. They’ve got the eyes on them and they’re a team.”

Sharper: “That’s the question. Are they facing an official team or a makeshift partnership for this?”

The lights dim as the horns of “I’m Worth It” by Fifth Harmony echo throughout the arena. The crowd starts to boo as white spotlights circle the arena then focus on the stage, dancing in time to the music.

Sharper: “Looks like a makeshift team!”

Knots: “And a big potential challenger. This is Bree’s non-title match of Fatal Fortunes!”

We cut to ringside to see Adam Sharper crossing Bree’s name from his roster list before cutting back to the stage where we see Bree Lancaster walk out from the back. Scott Burnside walks outwith her and the two look around, Scott standing a few steps behind her. Bree Lancaster extends her arms and looks up as white sparks start to fall behind her from the top of the set to the stage.

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

Bree then starts down the ramp as the chorus continues, her free hand on the silver silk belt holding her robe shut. Scott follows a few steps behind as two crossing spotlights follow Bree's progress.

Phillips: “Their opponent, first, accompanied by Scott Burnside, from New Orleans, Louisiana, she is the SCW United States Champion, Bree Lancaster!”

The music continues as Bree gets to the ring. She stops at the steps to pose a second as Scott goes up ahead of her. Bree follows up the steps as Scott then holds the ropes open for Bree to step through. 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 and the SCW United States Championship. She then pulls the robe off, swishing it around and tossing it at Scott as he stands near the corner on the apron. Bree then raises her arms overhead in a flourish, then walks another small circle, glaring at fans in the front row who are booing her. Scott goes down the steps to the floor as Bree's music fades and the lights return to normal.

Sharper: “This is going to be interesting. Who is Bree Lancaster’s partner?”

Knots: “How great would be it be if it was Blake Mason? I would love it for it to be Blake Mason? Or Derek Adonis?”

Sharper: “Blake I get. Adonis?”

Knots: “I sense that Bree thinks the KABLAMA Sutra is vile in all its forms. Probably why Blake was also willing to not agree with her tactics!”

There’s a bit of a pause as Bree turns to the entrance way. A few more moments pass before the lights in the arena cut and the darkness remains for a moment before the intro of “Hated” by Beartooth starts to play over the PA system, the lyrics appearing on the big screen in time with the music.

“WHO KNEW YOU’D BE HATED FOR BEING WHO YOU ARE…
AND BE A BIG TARGET FOR ALL THE FOR ALL THE INSECURE…”

The crash of drums and the wail of guitars kick the song in properly and as the volume doubles a spotlight appears on the stage to show a smirking Jason Helms standing there with his arms out wide and the fans cheer at the sight of him. Bree turns to the official, snapping at him, and shaking her head no. Jason Helms just smirks and starts to laugh as Aniya Helms walks out and the two start to enjoy the predicament they’re in.

Knots: “HAHAHAHA! Yes! Even better!”

Sharper: “Jason Helms is back and is Bree Lancaster’s partner for a World Tag Team Championship contendership opportunity!”

Phillips: “Her partner, accompanied by his wife Aniya, from New Jersey, fighting out of the Hollywood Hills, California, he is Jason Helms!”

Aniya and Jason head to the ring. Jason Helms hits the ring and slides under the ropes, popping straight back up to his feet and scaling the turnbuckles to throw his arms out again and gets in the face of Bree Lancaster. Bree turns to Scott and then the official before looking around, unsure of what to do. The crowd continues to cheer.

Sharper: “Bree Lancaster paid off the Network to take out Jason Helms after he kept needling her about her exploits outside of the ring. But now they’re partners!”

Knots: “Fate put this together! I love it! This is the greatest night ever. We could all die in fifteen minutes and I’ll die happy for this! The look on Bree’s face is priceless! Worth more than Dior stock!”

Red Empire vs. Jason Helms & Bree Lancaster

SCW World Tag Team Championship Contendership

The referee turns to Red Empire and then Jason as he gives a goofy thumbs up as Bree continues to protest. The bell sounds. Just then, Scarlet and Ruby run up behind Bree and both grab her and throw her up and over the top rope to the floor. The crowd roars as Bree rolls over and to the announce table. Scott exits the ring and goes over to her as Jason turns and kicks Scarlet in the ribs and spins her around and throws her out of the ring before turning and Ruby kicks Jason in the ribs. Jason grimaces and Ruby kicks him again and then nails him with a hard forearm shot. Jason falls to the ropes. Ruby grabs Jason and pulls him away from the ropes and drops down with a drop toe hold. She then rolls through into an armbar. Jason winces as Scarlet gets back up. Ruby tags her in. Scarlet enters and Scarlet kicks the arm of Jason. Bree looks around while on the ground.

Sharper: “Red Empire taking advantage of the fact that Helms and Lancaster are definitely not on the same page.”

Knots: “Come on Bree. Get up there. Help your partner. You’re a champion! Act like one.”

Bree ignores Knots as she slowly stirs at the announce table. Scarlet kicks Jason in the ribs and then hits a dropkick. She goes for the pin.

Jason kicks out. Scarlet turns and grabs the arm of Jason. Jason winces as Scarlet holds on. She glances at Bree before Scarlet clubs Jason in the arm and then again. Jason shoves her back into the ropes. Scarlet bounces off and Jason hits a European uppercut. Scarlet hits the mat and slowly gets up and Jason hits a dropkick. He then goes for the pin.

Scarlet kicks out. Jason then turns as Bree remains down on the ground, arguing with Scott about what to do. Jason turns and walks over to the ropes before motioning to her to come to the ring.

Bree: “Not going to happen Jason! I am done with you!”

Knots: “Yeah! Join in! Come on! You could be a great team! He may make you tolerable!”

Jason turns around and Scarlet nails him with a hard boot. The crowd ohs and Jason staggers forward and Scarlet grabs him and pulls him back by the head with a falling reverse DDT with Scarlet falling on top of her. Bree points to the official to count.

Jason kicks out. Scarlet rolls off, and heads over to Ruby. She takes her in. Ruby enters the ring and Jason stirs and Ruby runs at him and nails him with a sliding forearm smash. Jason hits the mat. Bree just smiles before moving to the ring, pounding the mat and cheering on Red Empire. Ruby looks over and smirks before turning and stomping Jason in the face and then again.

Sharper: “Now Bree is openly cheering for her opponents!”

Knots: “This is your fate Bree! You and Jason as a potential team!”

Ruby then grabs Jason as Jason stirs. She drags him over and places him on the middle rope. She starts to choke him.

Bree walks over and actually nails Jason with a hard right. Jason falls back as the referee looks at her.

Knots: “Is that a tag?”

Sharper: “No. In SCW, you need to actually tag. Hand to hand. It’s a tag in the sense that she tagged him with a hard right. That’s all.”

Knots: “Damn!”

Jason stirs and Ruby waits and he gets up and Ruby jumps up and hits a hurricanrana into a pin. Bree turns and points up, counting.

Jason kicks out. Ruby gets up. Bree turns before seeing Ruby starting to get up. She drags Jason up and goes to whip him across as Scarlet looks around the arena. Bree glances back and leans on the apron as Jason spins through and sends Ruby into the ropes and Bree trips her up, thinking it was Jason. The crowd roars as Ruby stumbles forward and Jason suddenly grabs her and hits the Back from the Dead. The crowd erupts in cheers. Bree smiles, dusting her hands. Scarlet goes to enter, but Helms turns and knocks her off with a forearm before diving back to Ruby!

Sharper: “Bree tripped up Ruby! She thought it was Jason!”

Knots: “Back from the Dead! Jason has Ruby down! The cover! Count! Count!”

He goes for the pin.

Scott yells at Bree as he realizes what’s happening and she slides in.

Helms rolls off and Bree just stops and freezes as Jason rolls over and starts to laugh at Bree.

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, and number one contenders to the SCW World Tag Team Championship…Bree Lancaster and Jason Helms!”

The crowd cheers as Helms points at Bree. Bree turns to the official and snaps at him. Jason rolls out of the ring, laughing.

Sharper: “I don’t believe it! Bree ended up tripping up Ruby enough for Jason to take advantage!”

Knots: “This is the greatest moment in the history of ever! Bree Lancaster and Jason Helms have to team together. You wanted rid of him. Now you’re partners!”

Bree just looks around as she starts to become aware of what is going on. Ruby stirs as Scarlet just looks at Jason and then to Bree. She steps in and starts to go toward Bree, but Ruby gets up and stops her. Bree just turns to Scott, unsure of what to do as the scene cuts away.

Backstage we see Mr. D on his cell phone. He then nods.

Mr. D: “Okay, thanks.”

Mr. D turns back and Sasha and Katya are seen in the room with him.

Sasha: “Do we know?”

Mr. D: “Have a few ideas. But I’ve seen that superkick before.”

Sasha: “You don’t think?”

Mr. D: “I wouldn’t put it past them.”

Katya: “You said they were in competition. Let them play their games then.”

Mr. D: “Oh I plan. Can’t do anything. But as they should know, if that person isn’t here, given who is on that list, and we know it’s not the person all of us in this room think it is….Well, we can turn this in our favour.”

Katya looks at her sister and then back.

Sasha: “Good. This whole stuff with Dark Fantasy needs to stop.”

Mr. D: “Anyway…Katya, how are you enjoying your first Fatal Fortunes?”

Sasha: “Interesting, eh?”

Katya: “Yes very…having me a part of this whole process. From the draw to seeing this. I know I have school…”

Mr. D: “Well you’ll make that up when you get back. But if you want to be a part of this…better for you to be involved in some of the nights that make it interesting.”

Katya: “Yeah.”

Katya smiles as the scene fades out.

Breakdown returns to the ring as we see crew members finishing up on some touches to the ring, showing a part of the ring with a steel cage section up. Posts are set up at each corner. Chains hang from each of them as we see various weapons, including a steel chair, a kendo stick, a garbage can, a road sign, a Buffalo Bills football helmet, and other plunder.

Sharper: “I think we can get guess what is coming next!”

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall, has a twenty minute time limit and is a triple threat House of Fun Match!”

The crowd cheers. “Confident” by Demi Lovato echoes from the loud speaker. Dawn Lohan pushes her way through the curtain. She stands in front of the entrance way, she takes a moment to soak in the reaction from the crowd. As the music is coursing through the arena she knows she can't delay the inevitable. She slowly makes her down to the ring, all business.

Phillips: “First, from San Diego, California, she is one half of the SCW World Tag Team Champions, Dawn Lohan!”

She makes her way to the ring steps. When she reaches the top of the steps, she walks along the apron. Grabbing the top rope she pulls back, using the momentum she propels herself forward over the top rope, ducking under the chain, and between weapons, and into the ring. She immediately springs up. She walks to the turnbuckle, stands on the middle turnbuckle soaking in the atmosphere. She hops off the turnbuckle and remains in the corner until the match gets underway. She then looks around.

Sharper: “Dawn Lohan getting a unique taste tonight. Here’s her non-title match.”

Knots: “And it’s going to be a tough one. Depending on who she’s up against, maybe an opportunity to injure. Get an advantage. Who knows who is going to be facing the Tag Champs later tonight or next week!”

Sharper: “Well we do know in the future.”

Knots: “Hahaha! Greatest thing to happen yet!”

“That Girl’s a Genius” blasts through the arena and the camera pans a wide shot and to show the crowd’s reaction for the youngest of the Steward clan. The camera changes as it switches to the stage entrance where Madison walks out dress in her dark black ring attire and wearing a steampunk white rabbit mask.

Phillips: “Next, from Riverside, California, she is the Dynamite Kid, Madison Steward!”

She stops on the stage and feeds off the crowds energy that gets her pumped. She takes off down the aisle sprinting to the ring and slides inside it. She gets up on her knees and takes off her mask booping her head to the music and smiles to the crowd. Madison picks herself up and takes off her black ring coat and gets ready for her match and her music fades out.

Knots: “This is what I would be worried about for Dawn Lohan!”

Sharper: “Maddy Steward gets an opportunity to showcase what she can do against a former World Champion, but again, messages could be sent to one half of the Tag Team Champions.”

“Just A Dream” by Nelly plays throughout the arena, a gold spotlight with blue flashers begin to circle the entranceway. London Truelove walks out by herself. She looks back before Laura Steinbeck walks out and nods, leading her to the ring.

Phillips: “From representing the Beauty Factory and accompanied by Laura Steinbeck, from Johannesburg, South Africa, she is London Truelove!”

London makes her way down the aisle interacting with the fans before getting to the apron. London holds the ropes for Laura as she slowly gets in the ring. London follows. She walks in and looks around as Laura turns and protests with the official. The official shrugs as Laura sighs and exits the ring. London starts to look around.

Sharper: “Not a good night for modelling but London Truelove can send a message to Dawn too.”

Knots: “Yeah, but Paris isn’t out here. Still thanks to the strap match earlier. London now has to compete in this!”

House of Fun Match

Dawn Lohan vs. Madison Steward vs. London Truelove

The bell sounds and the crowd roars. All three women look at each other while Laura Steinbeck watches from the outside with a hint of concern on her face. Maddie starts to stay something to Dawn which spurs London to quickly run across and hit a forearm shot to Steward sending her back towards the ropes which gets boo’s from the crowd. Those soon after change to cheers when Dawn quickly then grabs London and Irish whips her towards Maddie who pulls down the top rope and sends London up and over but only to the apron. Outside already Laura looks stressed but that changes when London grabs Maddie’s hair and pulls her to the ropes and hits a stiff forearm shot again. Dawn runs the ropes and charges across the ring at both Women but Maddie ducks and Lohan crashes through the ropes and takes London down with her to the outside to a roar from the crowd.

Sharper: “Action right out of the gate here tonight between these three. A lot at stake and not just their health either.”

Knots: “That’s right, bragging rights galore if either Maddie or London get to pin Dawn. Victory tonight has to get management thinking about another tag title opportunity.”

Dawn is the first to her feet, she then starts to pull London up and hits a shot of her own. In the ring Madison has already run the ropes and connects with a baseball slide to the back of Lohan. Steward then exits the ring only to get a kick to the gut from London doubling her over before running Steward into the nearby security barrier to more boos from the crowd. Laura is all smiles while applauding one half of the Truelove Twins. This only gets louder when London picks up a nearby steel chair to animosity from the crowd in the front row.

Sharper: “Steel in hand, that only means one thing.”

Knots: “Someone’s gonna get hurt!”

London swings the chair at Dawn, but one half of Lohan country moves out of the way with London hitting nothing but the ring. She winces and turns around to look at Madison, she swings the chair at her with it connecting with nothing but the barrier, the impact enough to force London to drop the chair with a small scream to her name as she shakes her hands. Madison grabs London and rolls her into the ring with Lohan getting to her feet only to get a side kick to the ribs knocking her back down. London gets to her feet while Madison slides in and runs her down with a clothesline. London pops back up and is taken out with another Clothesline, some fans getting behind Madison! Madison waits for London to get up once again before kicking her in the gut and spiking her with a DDT into the canvas before covering.

1… NO! LOHAN PULLS MADISON OFF!

Laura clutches her chest in relief while Lohan pulls Maddison up and hits a European uppercut. Steward fires a shot back before she is sent into the ropes. London rolls out of the way and back to the apron and ascend a corner. Steward goes for a clothesline on Lohan but to no avail, Lohan spinning on her heels while Steward skids to a halt only to get caught with a spinning wheel kick to the face. Lohan now quickly covers.

1… NO!!! KENDO STICK TO THE BACK OF LOHAN OFF THE TOP!

The SCW fans oooh, and then boo after London Truelove leapt off the top and drove that kendostick into the back of Dawn Lohan. She cries out in pain now arching her back until another strike to the back happens and another and once more for good measure, the SCW fans booing loudly while Laura on the outside is grinning like a Cheshire cat!

Knots: “London giving everything with those shots with that kendo stick!”

London drives the top of the kendo stick into the gut of Dawn now before she goes back to back with Lohan and uses the Kendo stick cross her throat to begin choking her. The fans begin to book loudly, but the referee is powerless to stop it. Dawn is reaching out panicking. Laura is all smiles until Maddison is back on her feet, Steinbeck tries to warn London, but she is focused on choking out Lohan. This allows Maddie to run the ropes and hit a chop block to the back of London’s knee, which in turn causes her to sit out onto the canvas and in the process brings Dawn down in a makeshift neck breaker using the Kendo stick!!

Sharper: “That is NOT how you use a kendo stick, but London doesn’t care right now.”

She’s holding her leg as Maddison is back up and running the ropes again only to connect with a running knee to the face of London now. Steward quickly covers London.

1…

2… NO KICK OUTBY LONDON!

Maddison slaps the mat only to roll across the ring and now covering Dawn Lohan.

1…

2.. NO KICK OUT BY Lohan!

The SCW fans cheer, Dawn rolling away holding her throat and neck. This allowing Madison to focus onto London who is getting back to her feet. The two now face to face, both stare at each other with London pointing at Lohan and screaming “I had her you Domkopf!!” Steward yells back “I don’t know what that means!” and slaps London across the face hard. The SCW fans ooohs and does so again when London slaps Maddison across the face next. London drives a knee into Maddison’s gut and doubles her over, she then drags across the ring and throws her into the corner driving her shoulder into the steel ring post.

Sharper: “This is a pretty knock down drug out brawl here between the 3 women. Dawn Lohan haven’t not seen much other than those kendo stick shots to her back.”

Knots: “She’s still feeling them now sat on the outside.”

Laura is watching Dawn like a hawk would its prey from across the ring. Inside the ring London is climbing the turnbuckle now going after a steel chair that hangs. Madison stumbles out of the corner and turns around to see this and runs over to push out the legs of London who lands on the top turnbuckle and traps her leg as she falls back into a tree of woe. London screams now trying to get herself up. Dawn is now back to her feet and rolls into the ring. Maddie Steward see’s her and runs across and connects with a shotgun drop kick which sends Dawn flying back into the opposite corner and not a seated position.

Sharper: “Madison sensing something brewing now. She can feel it as can these fans.”

Madison quickly runs to where London is and uses her as a step to climb up to the turnbuckle. The South African beauty is screaming at her as she stands on her leg now and pulls down the Steel Chair! Soon as she does, London’s tone changes immediately and she switches focus to getting released from the corner. Steward turns around and leaps off hitting a double stomp to the chest of London before falling to the canvas.

Sharper: “Huge double stomp there from Maddison.”

Back on her feet, Madison runs the ring with the chair in hand and leaps up into the air for a hanging drop kick with the added use of the chair. Dawn however rolls out of the ring with Maddie crashing into the corner herself and now holding her feet. London manages to break free of the tree of woe now and rolls over while Dawn gets up and waits for Steward to do the same. She struggles a little holding her foot and is on her knees which is where Dawn connects with the Through the looking glass. The SCW fans roar loudly and begin to get even more loud when they realize London has a road sign now in her hand. Dawn looks around only to turn directly in a vicious shot to the gut, she doubles over only to get another shot to the back once again and again and again. Each shot drops Dawn down to the canvas until laying prone.

Knots: “London not messing around now, she knew Dawn had this in the bag!”

Dawn holds her back again now and is in serious pain it looks like, while London walks over to and covers Madison in front of a pain-stricken Dawn Lohan while Laura watches and counts along with the referee.

1…

2…

3!!!

The bell sounds, and boos rain out from the SCW fans.

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

London gets back to her feet and runs across only to stomp the back of Dawn one more time before the referee leaps into action and separates her from Dawn. Laura laughs on the outside and motions for London to exit the ring, one third of the Beauty Factory confidently backing away and exiting only to have her arm raised by Laura Steinbeck.

Knots: “London picks up the win, a big win if you ask me. Trueloves sweeping their matches tonight! Very telling and something tells me also that this isn’t going to be over.”

Sharper: “Dawn holding her back, clearly looks hurt there and London is watching proud of herself as Laura hugs her. Sickening.”

Knots: “Part of the rules, house of fun and the Beauty Factory looked to have theirs tonight!”

THIS WEEK ON KABLAMASUTRA: The TV Series

Narrator: “Watch as Manly Mannerson, played by SCW’s own DEREK ADONIS, has to deal with a frightening discovery…”

The scene shows Derek Adonis, completely in character with a fake pompadour and everything, peers through the blinds at an elaborate home, with the reddened flickering light from within cascading on his eyes.

Adonis: “Are they…?”

Sounds of passion cover the scene as we focus on Derek's... or Manly's widening eyes.

Narrator: “His woman with another woman!? How does Manly respond to this, and can he woo TWO women at a single time? Spoiler alert: You do NOT want to miss the final scene of THIS one.”

The scene shifts to a sweaty Derek Adonis… er… Manly Mannerson lying in bed, two beautiful women nestled up beside him on either side, likely undressed but strategically covered by bedsheets, and his pompadour shifting off the side of his head. He looks directly up at the camera above with a satisfied smile on his face.

Adonis: “KABLAM!!”

COMMERCIALS

Back at ringside, tables are seen set up at ringside around the ring with a couple leaning up against the barricades.

Phillips: “The following contest is a six man tag table match!”

The crowd erupts in cheers. The arena’s lights cut and as the room falls into complete and utter darkness a buzz starts to spread through the crowd. It feels like a lifetime that the lights are off before they start to flash in a sequence that resembles lightening. Another moment passes and as the sound of rain fills the air while white and blue confetti starts falling on both sides of the entrance way. The sound of the rain is broken up momentarily as the voice of Samantha Raine is heard saying…

“Raining on your parade.”

As the crowd start to react, the sounds of Halocene’s rock cover of “Look What You Made Me Do” starts to play through the arena. The crowd just further erupts in to cheers as the small silhouette of Samantha makes her way on to the stage, but she isn’t alone. There is another silhouette behind her clapping his heads.

“I don't like your little games, Don't like your tilted stage
The role you made me play, Of the fool, no, I don't like you”

The song’s intro gives way to the chorus and as the song takes a harder edge the flashes of lighting become more violent. Sam along with the man that can now be identified as Woody Hoyt start to make their way down to the ring.

Philips: “First, making her way to the ring from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, accompanied to the ring by Woody Hoyt, she is Samantha Raine!”

Sharper: “Six person tag table match. This could be chaos depending on who is in it and Sam Raine is one of the six.”

Knots: “And could be looking to make an impact. In more ways than one. A tough loss last week. This is a nice way to rebound. Just drive someone through.”

A loud purrrrrrrrrring engine can be heard from somewhere in the arena. The chorus of "Wreak Havoc" by Skylar Grey begins the play. Suddenly, a motorcycle burst from backstage. It stops at the top of the ramp, the person driving the motorcycle briefly takes off her helmet, revealing herself to be Abigail Lindsay. Abigail pats the World Tag Team Championship belt she is wearing around her waist.

Phillips: “Her partner, from Los Angeles, California, one half of the SCW World Tag Team Champions, Abigail “Serenity” Lindsay.”

She places the helmet back on and drives down to the ringside area.

Sharper: “And Sam Raine will team with one half of the World Tag Team Champions!”

Baby I'm coming, better ready yourself
Be looking for me 'cause I'm the real thing

“The Real Thing” plays throughout the arena as Katie video plays on the screen. The crowd jumps to their feet giving her her usual pop. After a few moments Katie walks out on the stage wearing her glorious white and gold ring robe. She slowly walks across the stage to the ramp.

Phillips: “And finally, from Los Angeles, California, she is the Goddess of Desire, Katie Steward!”

Katie stands at the top of the stage and does her pose for the crowd. After a few seconds of the sending her their love she continues her way down the entrance way. Katie walks around ringside and steps up the ring steps onto the apron and enters the ring, looking at the tables with disdain. She walks to the middle of the ring and undoes her belt taking off her robe for the crowd. She hands her robe off to a crew member before she poses for the crowd in her stylish ring gear for a second before she gets into her mind set for her match. She then looks at Abigail and Sam, her partners.

Knots: “This is going to be fun.”

Sharper: “Katie Steward without TJ Johnson, thanks to Bianca Evans taking out TJ. I doubt she’ll be looking to make amends with Bianca. But she has to work with Sam Raine, who she had issues with heading into Rise to Greatness!”

Knots: “What about Abigail too? She tried to just challenge for the World Tag Titles! They’re a team?!”

The camera switches to the big screen, where images of Katelyn Buehler are shown, giving this crowd a chance to go crazy. The opening riffs of "My house by PVRIS" plays as Katelyn comes out onto the stage wearing a black leather jacket

Phillips: “Their opponents, first, from Los Angeles, California, she is Katelyn Buehler!”

Katelyn starts walking down the ramp, huge smile across her face. She runs a hand through her raven-black hair before slapping a few hands of the jam-packed crowd. Katelyn slides under the bottom rope, into the ring. She gets up to her knees, moving a few strands of hair from her face as she smiles out at the crowd.

Knots: “More personal connections. Her and Abigail are an item and are on different teams.”

Sharper: “Katelyn also a long time friend of Katie Steward. This is just getting more and more interesting by the person.”

All of a sudden, the lights go out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans. The tune of “The Nexus” by Amaranthe begins as a distorted speech that can barely be made out plays amidst the beat, but it’s not long before the song kicks into full gear, and when it does red and white lights begin pulsing on the stage as we see that smoke has begun to engulf it. When the lyrics kick in, the Tron comes to life with clips of Aaron Blackbourne in action, both as himself and as his various demon incarnations. When the song hits the chorus, pyro suddenly goes off on the stage in sync with the creative soul himself suddenly shooting up through the smoke and standing tall on the stage, arms raised and outstretched as the fans erupt into cheers.

Phillips: “Her partner, from Seattle, Washington, he is Aaron Blackbourne!”

The lights start to come back on, albeit dimmed, as Blackbourne begins making his way down to the ring, happily accepting high fives from the fans with a smile.

Sharper: “Aaron Blackbourne joining the fray. We have two very quality teams shaping up for this six person tag team table match.”

Knots: “His creativity could be a huge difference maker.”

All of a sudden Max's Kane voice is heard through the PA system.

KANE!

MAX!

Kane!

"Suck My Kiss" then hits the PA system; the lights flashing in sync with the bass. The crowd roars. After a few seconds, Max Kane is propelled from underneath the ramp into the air. The crowd oohs as he then lands on his feet. He limps a bit and smirks as he looks around. The camera comes up to his face. He looks at the camera and sticks his tongue out. He then starts to head down to the ring.

Phillips: Finally, from San Francisco, California, The Rock N' Roll Unicorn, he is Mad Max Kane!”

Max walks down to the ring, looking around the crowd. Max once again eyes the camera and he eyes it for a few seconds. The youngster picks up his pace and walks past the camera towards the apron. He loops around to his right and yells towards the crowd, smirking at the tables. Max makes a motion for the crowd to make some noise as he rapidly walks around the ring. He lowers his head, allowing his hair to fall down before snapping upward. He then slowly rolls into the ring and yells to the crowd. Max looks around and points to every section of the arena.

Knots: “Not this guy!”

Sharper: “And alone. No Network with him. I don’t know if they even know he was here. But he’s in this and on one side, you have a team with a lot of fault lines. You have a lot of creativity on the other. And this is table match rules, so to win, one team needs to put each member of the other team through a table!”

Sam Raine, Abigail Lindsay & Katie Steward vs. Katelyn Buehler, Max Kane & Aaron Blackbourne

Tables Match

The bell sounds. Max Kane then turns and runs across the ring and just jumps up, diving into both Abigail and Katie as the crowd ohs and Katie falls over and down to the floor. Abigail hits hard as Katelyn looks concerned. We then see Sam running over and kicking Aaron in the ribs. Aaron stumbles back into the corner and then again before turning and nailing Katelyn from behind as Katelyn falls over. The crowd boos a bit as Abigail starts to get up and Kane turns and grabs her and runs her across and into the next corner. He then kicks her in the ribs before stepping through to the floor. Katie looks around as she gets up on the floor. Sam turns and grabs Katelyn and lifts her up and runs her over into the corner. Aaron staggers out as Kane grabs a table from under the ring. The crowd roars and lifts it up before sliding it into the ring. The crowd roars. Abigail then turns and stomps him in the back as he gets in.

Sharper: “Kane already moving furniture. This one just a bit of a cluster so far.”

Knots: “Kane happy to start off the chaos, but Sam Raine also doing some big work.”

Sharper: “And Abigail, Katelyn and Katie have a connection, but across both teams here.”

Abigail turns and stomps him again as Sam turns and kicks Katelyn in the ribs and then again before lifting her up and onto the top rope. Abigail sees this and runs over and grabs Sam and stops her. Sam turns to her. She throws her arms up and points to her and then herself, Abigail and Katie. Aaron then turns and runs across the ring, intentionally ignoring them and diving through the ropes and onto Katie on the floor. The crowd erupts in cheers. Kane starts to get up and Katelyn steps up and grabs Sam and nails her with a hard forearm. Sam hits the mat. She turns to Abigail. Katelyn and Abigail look at one another before we see Kane getting up and running over and dropkicking Abigail in the back, knocking her into Katelyn.

Sharper: “Abigail and Katelyn, they are dating.”

Knots: “Yeah and they’re having a relationship convo. Is this the person I see in my future in fifteen minutes or not?”

Katelyn falls into the corner and the crowd ohs. Abigail staggers and Kane turns and throws her out of the ring. Sam gets up in the ring as Kane then grabs the top rope and goes to vault himself over, succeeding. Sam gets up and Katelyn starts to recover. She then steps up and Sam kicks her in the ribs before throwing her back in. She turns and grabs the table, unfolding the legs and lifting it up. Sam then turns back and lifts Katelyn up. Aaron starts to get up and slides in. Sam then climbs up and looks around before jumping up for a top rope hurricanrana. Katelyn flips somewhat, but tries to block it, instead with Aaron catching her.

Sharper: “Katelyn saved by Blackbourne!”

Knots: “Hey look! The teams mean something finally!”

Katelyn looks up at him and looks relieved before Aaron helps her to her feet. Sam starts to get up and Aaron and Katelyn both kick her in the ribs. They then spin her around to be back against the table. They then hoist her up and hit a double spinebuster through the table. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “And Raine is through!”

Knots: “Point for Blackbourne, Katelyn and Kane!”

Kane grabs Abigail on the floor as Katie staggers around. Kane clubs her again and then goes to whip her around, but Abigail spins through and sends Kane over to the barricade. He hops up onto the barricade only for Katie to grab the table set up next to the ring in front of the rampway and lifting it up and driving it into Kane. Kane falls forward and to the mats. Abigail looks at Katie. Katie then holds her jaw before Abigail rolls into the ring. Aaron goes to go over to Abigail, but Katelyn stops him a bit. Abigail says something to Aaron before we see Aaron turn back. He starts to head over to Abigail and Abigail backs up and then grabs him by the head and drives him into the top turnbuckle. She kicks him in the ribs and then again. Katelyn meanwhile rolls to the floor and grabs one of the tables in front of the announce table and lifts it up before placing it into the ring. She rolls in as Abigail kicks at Aaron. Aaron winces.

Sharper: “Abigail working over Blackbourne. Kane down on the floor. Sam down in the ring. Katelyn moving furniture.”

Knots: “And Katie is biding her time. Picking her spots.”

Katie looks on and then turns and kicks Kane in the ribs. He rolls over. Katie then looks on as Abigail grabs at Aaron and pulls him out, as Katelyn lifts up the table, setting it up. Aaron then suddenly shoves Abigail back and Abigail falls back and into the table, rolling over it and into Katelyn, ending up on top of her. Abigail rolls over and Katie slides into the ring. She runs up behind Aaron and clubs him in the back and then again. She spins him around and nails him with a hard right. Abigail looks at Katelyn and shrugs. Katelyn giggles a bit before telling her to get off. Abigail rolls off and Katie then turns and grabs Aaron and drives him face first into the table edge. He stumbles to the ropes. Katie then grabs him and pulls him in before hitting a DDT. Katie gets up and Kane starts to pull himself up. Sam stirs over by the ropes. Katelyn and Abigail look at one another before Katie gets up. She snaps at Katelyn.

Katie: “Take her out!”

Katelyn looks at Katie as Abigail turns to her.

Abigail: “Hey! I’m your partner!”

Katie: “Yeah, but she’s my friend!”

Abigail: “I’m her girlfriend.”

Katie looks stunned as she looks at Abigail and Katelyn.

Abigail: “So you want her to choose?”

Katie just looks them, unsure of what to do before Kane runs over and pulls Abigail out of the ring. He then throws her into the announce table. Abigail winces as Katelyn turns back. Just then, Aaron nails Katie from behind and then again. Sam starts to get up and Aaron tells Katelyn to get up. Katelyn looks around before Aaron then places Katie on the table. Katelyn turns and exits to the apron. The crowd roars. Katelyn gets to the top as Kane nails Abigail again and then again before Kane grabs a table and sets it up on the outside in front of the announce table. Katelyn meanwhile turns to Aaron as Aaron nails Katie again and then Katelyn just steps up and looks at Katie. She sighs. Katie then looks at Katie before saying sorry, but just then, Sam nails Aaron from the side of the head and then again. Katie rolls off the table. Katelyn sighs as Kane turns and grabs Abigail and rolls her to the table. Kane then turns to Katelyn.

Kane: “Hey! Kate! Jump on her!”

Kane falls to the apron. Katelyn just looks at him and puts her hands up.

Kane: “Then get the hell down!”

Kane hops onto the apron as Sam nails Aaron with a couple more shots. Kane climbs to the top rope and Katelyn looks at Abigail before shaking her head no. Kane just smirks.

Kane: “Come on doll. Just wanna fly, man!”

Sharper: “Katelyn actually stopping Kane. Katelyn having some tough decisions. Friends and partner on the other side.”

Knots: “That’s all well and good. But I want to see this idiot jump off something high!”

Sharper: “If this was a wrestling match, but there’s almost something more vicious about putting opponents through table.”

Kane climbs up as Katelyn tries to stop him, but just then, Abigail slides off and nails him in the ribs with a hard right and then another. Kane remains on the middle turnbuckle and Abigail then grabs him from the floor. Katelyn then shrugs before pushing him and Abigail powerbombs him through the table. The crowd roars. Aaron covers up as Sam nails him in the ribs. She turns back and kicks Katie in the ribs. Katie falls over. She starts to get up and Abigail then gets up and turns to Katelyn and smiles before hopping onto the apron. She looks at her and kisses her. The crowd cheers. Katelyn and speak a bit. Abigail then looks down before looking around. She then kisses Katelyn’s forehead. She then spins around the ringpost and climbs up to the middle turnbuckle.

Sharper: “Katelyn helping Abigail! All this to take out Kane!”

Knots: “They’re talking or something. They’re their own team tonight!”

Sharper: “Abigail is climbing up the turnbuckle too. I don’t get this.”

Katelyn turns and smiles at her. Abigail smiles back and then two then embrace with a kiss before then both fall off and through the table on the floor, driving each other through the table. The crowd roars. They two land, but remain cradled in each others arms.

Sharper: “Abigail and Katelyn taking each other out!”

Knots: “And while kissing! Almost like they eliminated each other to avoid more tough decisions!”

Sharper: “Abigail may have been fine with it. Katelyn…I’m less certain!”

Knots: “So who’s left?”

Sharper: “Blackbourne and Steward!”

The camera focuses on them as Sam then grabs Aaron and goes to hit a bulldog, but Aaron shoves her into the table and Sam goes up and over it. Aaron looks around as Katie starts to get up and Aaron grabs her, but Katie counters with a jawjacker. Aaron stumbles back and Katie starts to get up. Aaron turns back and Katie hits a dropkick. He hits the mat and rolls over and Aaron starts to get up and Katie runs over and nails Aaron with a hard forearm and then another. Kane stirs as Sam starts to get up and Katie grabs Aaron and goes to go for the hair-flip DDT, but Aaron blocks it and lifts her up and hits the Pull the Trigger. Katie hits the mat.

Sharper: “And Aaron and Katie, fighting back and forth here.”

Knots: “This has been ridiculous so far. Two teams that haven’t in any way worked together and now Katie and Aaron going at it!”

Aaron rolls over and stirs and Sam steps up onto the table and hits a crossbody. She hits him and rolls over. Both get up and Katie rolls to the apron. She crawls along it and to the corner. Sam then turns and hits a dropkick on Aaron. Aaron stumbles back to the table and rolls onto it. Katie slowly starts to pull herself up to the top turnbuckle. She holds her head as she looks at Aaron and leans back. Sam heads over to him and Aaron hits a quick kick to the side of the head. We cut back to see Abigail and Katelyn down in the table with Katelyn now on top of Abigail. Katelyn can be seen giggling a bit before wincing.

Sharper: “Katelyn and Abigail enjoying their time together.”

Knots: “In some pain, but what a nice thought. Makes me sick.”

We cut back to the ring as Katie gets to the top, but we see Bianca Evans climbing the barricade. She climbs up to the apron and nails Katie with a shot. She falls back and into Aaron before he can get up, driving him through the table. The crowd roars and the bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, Katie Steward, Abigail Lindsay and Sam Raine!”

Sharper: “Bianca Evans! She came from the crowd! And a cheap shot to Katie Steward!”

Knots: “I think it’s clear there will never be a day where Bianca asks for forgiveness! But she did just help Katie win…”

Sharper: “One shot. All that was needed, but as a result, Katie drove Aaron through the table before he could recover!”

The camera cuts to Katie who is down onto Aaron. Aaron winces, holding his ribs as Katie rolls over, holding her jaw. Katelyn starts to get up as Abigail stirs. She smirks. Kane sits up at ringside. Katie remains down as Aaron is in pain too and the scene slowly fades away.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns and in the ring, Jason Phillips stands to make his official introduction.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a fifteen minute time limit and is a triple threat match!”

“Adrenaline” by Gavin Rossdale plays as the crowd erupts in cheers. A few moments pass before we see Dylan Howell walk out from the back, wearing a pair of jeans, his fists taped. He looks around the arena and then starts to make his way to the ring.

Phillips: “First, from Malibu Beach, California, he is Dylan Howell!”

Dylan Howell looks around, scanning the arena before heading to the ring and sliding into the ring. He pulls himself up and then starts to walk forward. He then runs into the ropes, bounces off and then steps forward. He looks at the entrance way, pacing a bit as the crowd cheers him on.

Sharper: “Triple threat match and Dylan Howell drawing his first match not only back from being attacked but since Rise to Greatness!”

Knots: “But he looks ready for war. Almost like he’s hoping his fate is Regan Street.”

Sharper: “We haven’t seen her yet. It could happen. It’s triple threat rules too so two chances here.”

The arena's lights cut out completely, plunging the whole room into darkness for several seconds before the screens light up to display a countdown.

THOMAS VALENTINE WILL BLOW THE
ROOF OFF IN

NOW!

The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that reverberates round the arena, until two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Cut The Cord" by Shinedown, hits. A shadowed figure can be seen standing in front of the curtain at the top of the ramp.

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

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

Phillips: “Next, from Raleigh, North Carolina, he is Tommy Valentine!”

As he walks past the barrier he looks out into the crowds and goes to high fives a few fans before moving on down the ramp, the smirk still on his face before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, simply nodding before smiling at all the fans in the crowds. He jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles before standing still in the centre, cranking his neck. Thomas then stands motionless in the corner before waiting. Dylan and Tommy glance at one another.

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine one of the two opponents for Dylan Howell and Dylan and Tommy sizing each other up here.”

Knots: “One more left…”

“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 Sienna Swann walks out with her head down as the crowd boos. She then looks up and smirks, looking at the ring. Notably, she doesn’t have her wings, only holding the SCW World Championship. She glances back as we see Regan Street walking out from the back and joining Sienna. The crowd boos some more.

Sharper: “Oh my! Won’t be Regan! But Sienna Swann in her non-title draw!”

Knots: “And Regan is with her! Dylan…you’re in for a long night!”

Sienna then starts to head to the ring.

Phillips: “And finally, accompanied by Regan Street and representing Past, Present, Future and the Beauty Factory, from Johannesburg, South Africa, she is the SCW World Champion, Sienna Swann!”

Sienna and Regan walk down to the ring as Tommy stops Dylan from going after Regan. Regan looks in as she goes to the apron. Sienna walks up the steel steps. She then steps into the ring. She undoes her World Championship belt, holding it up and snapping at Dylan.

Dylan Howell vs. Tommy Valentine vs. Sienna Swann

He turns to point at his sister, Tommy stands in between them and tries to calm Dylan down. Sienna says something to the referee, shoving the belt into waste and demanding the bell to ring. The referee calls for the bell and Sienna dropkicks Dylan into Tommy causing him to fall out of the ring, she rolls Dylan up for the cover…

Sienna Breaks Up the pin!

Sharper: “Fast and Furious action already and Regan is making her presence felt. Sienna so aggressive tonight, Dylan right now is reeling, his sister has thrown him off his game, but the X-Factor is Tommy and he is at his best tonight!”

Knots: “I told you Dylan was in for a long night and who knows, Regan could compete later, and she doesn’t care! Dylan asked for this and the world champion, the title is not on the line, but you know that she is looking to make a statement.”

Sienna starts kicking the downed Tommy repeatedly, she drops to her knees and starts driving her forearm into his chest. She gets up as Dylan tries to recover, she picks him up by the hair and throws him to the outside, the referee points at Sienna who goes back to Tommy, driving her knee repeatedly into his chest, Regan prowling on the outside, Dylan slowly gets up, Regan pushes him into the steel post while the attention of the referee is on Sienna and Tommy. Dylan hits hard and she backs up pretending she did nothing…..

Sharper: “Come on Referee! Regan blatantly threw Dylan into the steel post!”

Knots: “I didn’t see anything, Sienna has taken control of this match and Tommy better find answers quick. Sienna and Tommy know each other well, they are like practically family! Looks like Dylan tripped.”

Sharper: “Really, Jon?”

Knots: “Yeah, really.”

Dylan rolls on the mats outside the ring, Sienna picks up Tommy by the hair, she delivers the Angel’s Wrath, Tommy fails to block most of the kicks as he crumbles to his knees, Sienna backs up, bouncing off the ropes, she goes for another kick but Tommy grabs her leg, she tries to swing at him but Tommy gets to his knees and hits a dragon Crew Leg Whip. The crowd cheers, Tommy runs against the ropes and bounces off with a somersault splash. He hooks the leg for the cover….

Kick Out by Sienna!

Dylan gets to his knees, he tried to collect himself while Regan slowly again tries to sneak up behind him, Tommy slides out of the ring and stands between the two shaking his head. Regan tells him to get out of the way, he doesn’t see Sienna baseball slide and knock Tommy into the barricade. Regan backs up as the referee tries to get control. Sienna rolls out of the ring and picks up Tommy, she throws him back in, climbing the top rope and waiting for Valentine to stand up…

Sharper: “Sienna perched high on the ropes, She’s looking to finish this! Dylan has been basically a nonfactor in this match thanks to his own sister!”

Knots: “I told you that idiot would be in for a very long night thanks to the Hellcat! The World Champion is ending this!”

Sienna awaits, Tommy starts to get up, Dylan manages to get to the apron, Regan is about to grab him but the referee gets in the way yelling at her to back up, it distracts Sienna giving Tommy the chance to spring up to the ropes and belly to back suplex the World Champion as the crowd roars.

Sharper: “Everyone is trying to get the pinfall, Sienna was able to kick out but Dylan back in the mix changes the dynamic of this match!”

Knots: “Sienna is ready to pick her shots, she is looking for an opening, but Tommy is showing why he’s a former World Champion. Regan is hot outside and she wants to get in!”

Tommy falls back, he gets back up and Sienna goes the WTP, Tommy has it scouted, reverses it into Redemption Syndrome! The crowd roars and Sienna rolls away, Tommy turns and Dylan catches him from behind with Guilty Pleasures, he hits three German Suplexes in a row releasing Tommy on the third one, he rolls out of the ring. Dylan gets up and looks at Sienna getting to her feet, he points as the crowd roars but Regan hops on the paron again, Dylan runs at her and throws a punch, Regan drops to the floor just in time , he turns and Sienna runs right at him with a Kiss by an Angel!

Sharper: “Dylan took the full impact of that Kiss by An Angel! Sienna ran right at him and he couldn’t react in time!”

Knots: “He took his eye off Sienna to go after Regan! Goodnight Dylan!”

Sienna drops down on Dylan and hooks the far leg for the cover….

Sienna throws his leg down and starts screaming at him. “Style” begins to play throughout the arena, the crowd boos as Regan smiles and rolls to the ring, she yanks the World Title from the referee and hands it to Sienna who holds it high up, Regan raises her hand then looks down at Dylan, pointing and cursing her own brother out….

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

She poses and smirks, lifting the World Title high. Dylan starts to stir, Regan continues to point at him screaming, Tommy tries to get to his feet on the outside, leaning against the railing….

Sharper: “Huge win for Sienna Swann here at Fatal Fortunes but next week, she will defend her World Championship. Regan played the factor, but the World Champion was aggressive tonight.”

Knots: “Does she look anymore ready, anything can happen tonight, Dylan was taught a lesson by his sister. Tommy was caught in the crossfire and Sienna…. Well she’s perfect.”

Sienna starts to pull Regan back from Dylan who starts to stir, Tommy still on the outside as he looks on in disappointment, Sienna and Regan acknowledge him, before exiting the ring and heading to the back….

Backstage we see Katelyn Buehler standing backstage with Abigail Lindsay. Abigail kisses her on the cheek as she heads off and Katelyn looks around before we see Jessica Winters coming over to her.

Jessica: “Looks like you have a good thing there.”

Katelyn smiles and nods.

Katelyn: “Definitely do.”

Jessica: “Mind if I do a quick interview.”

Katelyn: “Of course.”

Jessica: “Just wanted to know. You seemed hesitant to compete out there. Obviously, it’s clear after tonight, you have a relationship with Abigail and it was rather sweet what you two did out there.”

Katelyn: “She took the hit for me. Going through that table together.”

Jessica: “But also you have a long history and friendship with Katie.”

Katelyn: “In this business, so many friendships get strained, ended. I just went through that with Ace and I have to think about my kids. And you all may not know Katie as I do, but I know her as a friend. Abigail, she’s great with my kids. And well, I didn’t want to risk that. Even accidentally. Especially not by putting them through a table. It’s one thing in a wrestling match. Then it’s all skill. But it’s a table. They can hurt. They can injure and –“

???: “So you’re the one!”

???: “Hold on-“

Just then, we see Scarlet Grey running into the room and immediately throwing a haymaker, catching Katelyn Buehler under the eye. Katelyn drops and Scarlet gets onto her and nails her with a couple of shots. Jessica jumps back.

Jessica: “Help! Help!”

Ruby Amarant then comes onto the scene and grabs Scarlet, trying to pull her off. Abigail Lindsay, now in a towel, but still wearing pants, runs over and Ruby pulls Scarlet off. Abigail gets a shot in and Scarlet stumbles back. She tries to get back at her, but Abigail stands in front of Katelyn. We then see Dawn heading over as Scarlet is dragged off by Ruby. The scene then fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

The scene opens up at ringside to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the table.

Sharper: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Fatal Fortunes, night one, almost to a close. We have one match left. Our main event.”

Knots: “What the hell else can happen?”

Sharper: “Could be for a title. Could be something else. Time to go up to Jason Phillips and find out!”

The scene cuts to the ring. Jason Phillips steps forward as the bell sounds.

Phillips: “The following contest…”

He pauses for a moment.

Phillips: “…is a ten person Gauntlet for the Gold match for an SCW World Championship opportunity!”

The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Oh my God!”

Knots: “So who is in this?”

Sharper: “We’re going to find out as go. Ten people enter, every sixty seconds. Each thrown over the top rope. Final two standing will compete in a standard match, pinfall, submission, rules.”

Gauntlet for the Gold

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. 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 first entrant, 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: “Angelica Jones the first entrant. Big opportunity for her. Not for the Tag Titles, but still.”

Knots: “No one would turn this down. Just a matter of who else is in this.”

The arena goes dark and the crowd begins to get loud. The opening chords of "Sound of Madness" by Shinedown begin to echo throughout the arena. With each opening drum beat, the logo of the Social Misfits flashes on the jumbotron...

Yeah, I get it you're an outcast
Always under attack always coming in last
Bringing up the past no one owes you anything
I think you need a shotgun blast a kick in the ass
So paranoid

WATCH YOUR BACK!

With those words, an explosion or pyrotechnics erupts on the stage and the arena fills with lights and Jake Starr comes strutting out from backstage. He immediately stops on the stage and surveys the crowd, feeling their energy and absorbing it all in. He begins his walk toward the ring. As he walks down the ramp, he occasionally throws a hand to the side, slapping a hand and giving a fistbump to the outstretched hands of the SCW fanbase.

Upon reaching the ring, he hops up on the apron with one knee, pulling himself up, and stepping through the middle rope. He immediately makes his way to the far corner, climbing to the top rope. As the chorus hits, a spotlights illuminate Jake and he simply stands there looking around at the fans with a smirk on his face. He lifts his arms up, then points at himself, and ultimately yells the words "I'M NOT DEAD YET!" He looks around, continuing to soak up the energy from the crowd before beating on his chest twice, and raises his "Misfit Revolution Fist" high into the air, a gesture mimicked by many fans in the crowd who have been supporters over the years.
