“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

 

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

 

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

 

 

MAIN SHOW:

 

The scene opens up not inside the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio, but instead, outside of the arena outside of one of the gates. Some fans are gathered around what appears to be a podium on a stage. We also have some cameramen and women set up in front of it. We also see some security guards standing in front of the stage. A few moments pass as we can hear some buzzing inside the arena. We then see Cassidy Carter walk up to the podium. She taps on it roughly and smiles.

 

Cassidy: “Ladies and gentlemen, shut up and listen as we have called this extra special press conference with your World Champion!”

 

Cassidy backs off and then steps back as some of the fans outside cheer. We cut to the inside of the arena as some fans boo. We cut back to see Ace Marshall standing outside wearing a pair of shorts and a “Property of Cassidy Carter” t-shirt. He has the SCW World Championship over his shoulder. He then pulls out a folded piece of paper out of this shorts pocket and unfolds it before placing it in front of him on the podium.  He takes a moment and clears his throat.

 

Ace: “I am sorry that I need to come out here in this fashion. But the rumours and innuendo that have already plagued my brief tenure as World Champion need to be addressed. Since defeating Selena Frost at Apocalypse, there are reports that I apparently had to cheat to win this title and those claims hurt. They strike right at my heart as I have worked hard for EVERYTHING I have done, including all seven thousand four hundred and eighty-three pairs of shoes that Cassidy Carter owns. But!”

 

Ace holds his finger up.

 

Ace: “Even when my own minion…er….student…er….charitable donation to the future of professional wrestling, a young man named Alistaire Allocco proved that he will be the first blind man to successfully compete in professional wrestling under my guidance….he made a mistake and Selena managed to nearly take advantage…I managed to persevere and win the SCW World Championship. With the deck stacked against me, I stepped up and showed the world…”

 

Ace smirks as Cassidy applauds, nodding.

 

Ace: “…just how important this title is to me. That’s how badly I wanted to win it!”

 

Ace starts to fake tear up, taking a moment and turning away. Cassidy reaches inside her top and pulls out some tissues and hands them to Ace. Ace dabs his eyes.

 

Ace: “Thank you. This is a big moment for me. A really big one and one that I can’t handle it being taken away by a delusional Snow Queen who has the weight of the world on her shoulders, snapped, and needed to manipulate my charitable donation for her benefit. Therefore…”

 

Ace takes a moment and gathers himself.

 

Ace: “It is with great thought that I announce that I won’t give Selena Frost the opportunity to insult this title anymore. I will not be agreeing to a rematch. Thank you!”

 

Ace backs up and throws his arm up and waves. The crowd in the arena boos while we see the cameramen and women take pictures as Cassidy Carter walks over and smiles before raising Ace’s arm. The scene plays out for a moment longer before we cut into the arena and open up to ringside to see Adam Sharper and Shawn Winters at ringside.

Sharper: “I don’t believe the arrogance. And even insulting Alistaire Allocco in the process.”

 

Winters: “I didn’t know Alistaire was blind!”

 

Sharper: “Give me a break. Coming out here after regaining the SCW World Championship and using that to justify that he won’t be giving Selena a rematch. Fortunately, that may not be up to him. Selena gave him his rematch and Ace saying he won’t, it’s all to just get under her skin.”

 

Winters: “Something he is very good at.”

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile the entire roster is present here tonight. After Hurricane Irma, Past, Present, Future, they are here. And we’ll see Regan Street defend her US Championship against Blake Mason tonight.”

 

Winters: “And he won’t be in a good mood after what happened at Apocalypse with Bree Lancaster getting disqualified for shoving an official. Along with that, Ravyn Taylor will defend her TV Title against Marie Jones. Sienna Swann is here and remember, she will now face Ravyn Taylor at Under Attack to crown the final Women’s Champion.”

 

Sharper: “But there are some concerns about why she wasn’t here. She had no property in Florida and some are questioning what is going on there.”

 

Winters: “She probably was with Regan Street! Helping her! She’s very charitable!”

 

Sharper: “Plenty to come tonight including Lexi von Aaron and Stacy Kissinger fighting for a TV Title shot. Amy Chastaine will be in action and Alistaire Allocco will make his first in-ring appearance, tonight on Breakdown!”

 

Winters: “First blind wrestler!”

 

Sharper: “Stop it! You’re getting as bad as Knots.”

“A Stranger I Remain” by Free Dominguez plays throughout the arena and the crowd roars. We cut to the entrance way to see Alexis Quinne walking out from the back. She looks around the arena for a moment before then starting to make her way down the rampway. The crowd cheers her as she walks down the ramp to the ring.

 

Sharper: “Alexis Quinne on her way to the ring. She and Jay Gold were successful at Apocalypse, but that was partially because Andrew Raynes left his partner, Christy Matthews, alone and walked off.”

 

Winters: “Quinne seems more upset by that. Guess there still is some respect for Christy Matthews.”

 

Quinne hops onto the apron and then goes over to the corner and hops up and over the top rope to the mat. She looks around and the crowd cheers her still before she goes to the corner and is handed a microphone. She takes it and turns back around. Her music plays for a few moments longer before slowly fading out.

 

Quinne: “First off, before I say what I need to say, I need to say this….Puerto Rico…we love you. We care. And anyone who can, please help however you can, to help them recover from Hurricane Maria!”

 

The crowd cheers a bit as Alexis Quinne looks around.

 

Sharper: “Quinne of Puerto Rican heritage. Really hits home seeing some of the devastation. Please help if you can.”

 

Quinne wait a moment before then starting again.

 

Quinne: “But one person who shouldn’t get any help is Andrew Raynes. You seem to be really good at being a coward. You have the opportunity to team with someone…a former World Champion…and you leave her in the ring, just because you don’t feel it anymore. And afte what else. Let’s count it all.”

 

Quinne pauses and looks at her hand, extending her fingers and touching them with her other hand.

 

Quinne: “You come back and your way of coming back is attacking ME from behind by throwing me off that stage. You then piss of Jay Gold in the process. And not only do you screw over Christy, you run from me and Andrew….you’re starting to just piss me off by the second.”

 

Quinne then smirks and looks around.

 

Quinne: “And then at Twitter when I call you out, you say you’re gonna be waiting. Well, Andrew, where the hell are you?! Come on boy, you want to throw down. Let’s do it right now, right here!”

 

The crowd cheers. Alexis Quinne raises her voice at the end as she looks around.

 

Quinne: “Come on! Or do you need me to come up on the stage so you can attack me from behind like the chump that you are? Come on out Andrew! I’m not gonna run!”

 

Sharper: “Quinne is ready to fight!”

 

Winters: “Where is he then? I saw it. Come on, she’s giving you what you want!”

 

Quinne paces a bit in the ring. She continues to look around.

 

Quinne: “Going to come out of the crowd, like the bitch you are? Come on Andrew! I’m not hiding! Said I’d be waiting for you. Here I am!”

 

The crowd cheers as fans can be seen looking around, looking for Andrew Raynes. Quinne keeps scanning the arena before we then see Andrew Raynes walking out from the back. He just smirks as he looks around and nods. He has a microphone in his hand. Quinne notices him and walks over to the ropes and then sits down on ropes, inviting him in. Raynes just looks down as he then shakes his head.

 

Sharper: “Quinne is ready to go, even inviting him in!”

 

Raynes: “Alexis…relax….chill….you can step back from the ropes.”

 

Quinne just looks at him and backs up from the ropes and then backs across the ring and tells him to come to the ring.

 

Raynes: “I’m not coming down to that ring.”

 

The crowd boos. Quinne can be seen yelling “Why?”

 

Raynes: “See, I thought about it after you had your little diatribe on Twitter…chica. And while you’re scrapping and clawing for relevancy after you had all of your hard work killed off by one man…you’re a former World Champion! You should act like it. But it’s clear you can’t. You’re just pissed off that your chance at some more revenge against Christy was tainted because I realized I didn’t need to be there. That’s fine.”

 

Quinne grabs the microphone again.

 

Quinne: “You gonna run again?”

 

Raynes chuckles a bit.

 

Raynes: “Sure, call it that. I just see no reason to contribute to your downward spiral Quinne. I’d rather focus on what matters to me.”

 

Rayne then turns and walks back to the back. Quinne steps forward.

 

Quinne: “Get your ass back here. You think you’re going to just get away with trying to end my career and disrespecting someone who is miles better than you. Nuh-uh. Turn around and get your ass back here.”

 

Raynes just walks through the curtain. The crowd boos Quinne then stops and turns around and shakes her head.

 

Quinne: “Well then, Andrew…I guess I’m just going to have to make sure you get your ass-kicking anyways.”

 

Quinne drops the microphone. The crowd roars. She then steps forward and walks over to the ropes. She steps through the ropes and drops down. She then starts to head up the rampway to the back.

 

Sharper: “Wait a minute. Alexis…”

 

Winters: “She wants to fight. She’s going to find one!”

 

Sharper: “Alexis Quinne storming to the back and going right after Andrew Raynes!”

 

The camera follows Q        uinne as she heads up the rampway to the stage. The camera angle changes as Quinne steps through the curtain. She then runs through and then jogs down the steps, heading into the backstage area. The cameraman follows her. She then walks past the producer and Gorilla position before continuing, only for suddenly Raynes, who was standing off to the side, hiding in the curtain, running up and nailing her from behind with a walkie-talkie. Quinne falls and turns, holding her head. Rayne then steps forward as the crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Raynes was waiting to the side. In the draping! Quinne never saw him!”

 

Winters: “Clever…”

 

Raynes then throws the walkie-talkie down.

 

Raynes: “I told you I wasn’t going to fight….Figured you’d not figure it out. No wonder PUNK HAZARD didn’t last.”

 

Raynes then steps over Quinne as she holds her head. We see the producer at the Gorilla position running over. Raynes walks off as the camera turns to him as we see another official running over. The camera turns back and shows Quinne as we fade to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we open up to see Alexis Quinne walking backstage with a couple of officials with her. Quinne just pushes the one away.

 

Official 1: “We need to get you to the trainer’s room to get you checked out.”

 

Quinne: “I’m fine!”

 

Official 1: “We’re not going to let you not go.”

 

Quinne grumbles a bit before another voice is heard.

 

???: “You should go.”

 

We then see Christy Matthews standing a few feet away looking at her.

 

Quinne: “Like you care.”

 

Christy: “Just like how you defended me out there…”

 

Christy walks up to Quinne.

 

Christy: “Let’s cut the crap. We know we respect each other, but if you’re going to keep being pissed because I focused on myself just like you knew I would….then what did you really know about me when you asked me to join PUNK HAZARD months ago.”

 

Christy starts to walk off as Alexis looks at her and holds her head as she then turns to the officials.

 

Official 1: “This way.”

 

They start to lead her up as we cut back to ringside.

Thirteen vs. Gable Winchester

 

The lights in the arena go out, prompting a small surprised pop from the fans. After a few moments, the heavy beats of "The Vengeful One" by Disturbed kick in as deep purple lighting and smoke begin to engulf the stage. On the tron we see a series of clips playing that can best be summarized as a depiction of chaos playing out in the world, all of them having a figure in a tattered black hooded cloak adorned with chains conveniently walking through them. When the lyrics kick in, we see this same figure slowly walk out through the smoke as he gazes out from under his hood at all the fans buzzing in anticipation, almost as though he's judging each and every one of them.

Phillips: “Introducing first, making his way to the ring at 210 pounds and currently residing in Chicago.... he is Thirteen!”

As the song hits the chorus, the figure drops to his knees and whips his head back, throwing off the hood as he extends his arms in a familiar pose of being extended with his palms facing towards the ring, the motion causing an explosion of fire to his sides that continue to burst from the stage in tune with the music as the fans go ballistic at the sight of the returning Thirteen. Slowly he rises to his feet and begins his march to the ring, listening to the fans cheering him on but keeping his focus on the task at hand. He leaps up onto the apron and steps between the ropes quickly before going to the center of the ring where he slowly runs his thumb across his throat before giving a thumbs down, giving a malicious smile as he does so. He proceeds to start removing his cloak as he awaits the start of the impending match.

Sharper: “Thirteen coming off a win at Apocalypse over Dante McCafferey, and surely looking to continue that momentum here tonight, despite the incident that occurred after the match was over.”

Winters: “Dante had his buddy Jack Parker and an unknown accomplice beat the holy hell out of Thirteen after scoring the pinfall. Thirteen has to still be angry about that, and Gable Winchester may just be in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Sharper: “Gable isn't someone to overlook though, he's also looking to regain some ground and this could be a very competitive, intense bout.”

Phillips: “And his opponent...”

A deep voice booms around the arena as the crowds are hushed, waiting for what would happen next.

“The Book Of Winchester, Page Three, Chapter Seven, Verse Nine…There was a dark and foreboding federation…nothing but criminals and geriatrics running riot…the place called out for a hero…a saviour that wasn’t of the Christian variety…that could bring a new sense of awesomeness to it’s very core…and rock the place to it’s foundations like never before…they found that man”

There is silence before various words show on the video screen.

DRAGONSLAYING

FOUNDATION LAYING

ALCOHOL SWILLING

LEGEND THRILLING

"Motherf**ker Of The Year" By Motley Crue hits in the arena as a microphone now appears on the video screen as Gable's voice can be heard echoing throughout the arena

"GABLE-ITES! THIS IS FOR YOU!"

This immediately sets the crowds off with cheers aimed toward the man that steps out onto the top of the ramp with "The Book Of Winchester" tucked securely under his arm as he walks forward.

Phillips: “Currently residing in Las Vegas, and weighing in at 198 pounds... the Man of Win... Gable Winchester!”

Gable then stops and smirks at the gathered fans before holding the book aloft as blue fireworks shoot up from both sides of the stage and the crowds give him a wild reception. Shrugging and then smiling, Gable holds the book up in the air before lowering it and then strolling down to the ring, acknowledging as many fans as he can before he makes his way to the ring with a look of appreciation for the fans clear on his face. The words on the screen keep on repeating themselves as Gable reaches the ring and puts the Book Of Winchester on the apron before he slides in, standing on the ropes and holding his hand up in a tight fist as the crowds whistle and cheer for The Man Of Win.

Sharper: “The last time Gable Winchester saw action was Breakdown a few weeks ago in round one of the tournament for the then-vacant Adrenaline Championship. He was defeated by the man who won that Championship at Apocalypse, Giovanni Aries.”

Winters: “That was nearly a month ago, could be a little rusty. We'll see how this goes.”

The bell rings and the men circle each other a few seconds before Thirteen suddenly lunges and grabs Gable, spinning him around into a rear hold, then applying a hammerlock. Gable struggles a bit before spinning out but Thirteen keeps his grip and reapplies the hold. Gable drops to a knee, reaching up over his head and grabbing Thirteen's head, and leans over to flip Thirteen over. He hits the mat on his back, the momentum breaking his hold on Gable's arm. Gable gets to his feet quickly and grabs Thirteen's leg, but Thirteen kicks with his other leg, his heel hitting Gable on the wrist and breaking the hold. Gable shakes his arm off as Thirteen scrambles to his feet. Grabbing the arm he just kicked, Thirteen drops Gable with an arm drag. Gable gets right back up, only to be taken down with another one. Thirteen doesn't give him a chance to get up this time by immediately putting a boot on Gable's chest. Foot still planted, Thirteen bends over and reaches for Gable's arm, but Gable wraps his arms around Thirteen's foot and then raises his leg, throwing a kick up into Thirteen's chest. Thirteen stumbles backwards, trips over Gable's other leg and falls.

Sharper: “Well, that was a unique counter, Thirteen landing somewhat awkwardly.”

Winters: “I think I may have seen that in a movie... not sure, the nineties are kind of a blur...”

Sharper: “Weren't you a kid in the nineties?”

Winters: “Irrelevant.”

Gable quickly gets up and grabs Thirteen by the head, pulling him up to his feet. Gable whips Thirteen into the ropes, and as he bounces back Gable goes for a hard clothesline, but Thirteen ducks. Gable spins with his own momentum as Thirteen bounces off the opposite side. Taking advantage of Gable's momentary discombobulation, Thirteen grabs Gable's head and drops him with a DDT. He drops for a cover.

Gable shoots his shoulder up. Thirteen, undaunted, hops to his feet and grabs Gable's leg before he can start to get up. Flipping Gable over, Thirteen bends the leg back with a single crab. Gable though tucks his head under and manages to roll out of it, pulling Thirteen down with him, before much damage is done. This time Gable is up first and he springboards off the middle rope and lands a legdrop right across the chest. He goes for his own cover.

2!

Thirteen kicks out, shoving Gable off.

Sharper: “A pair of pinfall attempts in quick succession, both men looking to put this away early.”

Winters: “And both kicking out right after the two. It's too early for either of these guys to stay down just yet.”

Thirteen is up first, but Gable isn't far behind. Thirteen takes Gable down with an arm drag again, but this time he drops down with him and locks on an armbar. Gable pushes up with his feet to try to relieve some of the pressure, but Thirteen pulls on the arm harder. Gable looks around the ring, grimacing with the strain, and sees his feet aren't that far away from the ropes. He stretches a leg out as far as it can go, and given he is taller than average, it's just enough to get the toe of his boot onto the bottom rope. The ref counts.

Thirteen releases the hold, and Gable rolls over, cradling his arm. Thirteen gets back up, and grabs a seated Gable from behind, looking to lock on a Camel Clutch. Gable throws an elbow up though, nailing Thirteen's jaw. Thirteen staggers back slightly, and tries again, earning another elbow shot. This one knocks him off balance and he goes down to a knee. Gable quickly gets to his knees and then up and runs to the ropes, bouncing off for momentum before connecting with an enzuigiri to Thirteen's temple! The crowd roars and Thirteen fall to his side, holding his head.

Sharper: “Gable showing a burst of energy there that I don't think Thirteen saw coming, and he may be seeing stars.”

Winters: “Did That Just Happen? It sure did, with a little assist from the ropes. Gable needs to do something and quick if he's going to take advantage of this, though.”

Gable smiles at the cheering fans before climbing the corner and turning around on the top to face inside the ring. Thirteen is still down, one hand on his head. Gable leaps, looking for an elbow drop, but Thirteen rolls out of the way! Gable crashes hard, his arm under him. He rolls over away from Thirteen, holding his arm. Thirteen is near the ropes, and uses them to pull himself up. Seeing that Gable is down, thanks to his evasive move, Thirteen smirks, and stalks towards Gable. Sensing a weakness, Thirteen kicks Gable back down as he tries to sit up, causing him to fall face down. He then drops down and locks on another armbar, this one a Fujiwara. Gable kicks out with his feet, but finds himself too far away from the ropes this time. Thirteen pulls back harder, leaning backwards over Gable's back. Gable tucks his other shoulder under, and somehow manages to roll out, flipping Thirteen onto his back. Gable grabs a leg and leans back for an awkward cover.

1!

2!

Thirteen shoves Gable hard right before the three.

Sharper: “Great counter by Gable Winchester there, nearly getting the fall!”

Winters: “Thirteen is pissed that Gable came that close, too. This could be bad news for Gable.”

Thirteen practically leaps to his feet and turns, finding Gable starting to get up, still favoring his arm. Thirteen shakes his head, no, he is clearly done playing around. As Gable gets to his feet and faces Thirteen, Thirteen throws an uppercut, then another. As Gable staggers backwards, Thirteen boots him I the gut, and Gable doubles over. This makes him easy prey for Thirteen to grab the bad arm and yank on it hard, torquing it more. He then underhooks with both arms. Gable struggles to get free but Thirteen lifts him up anyway and drills him down.

Sharper: “Broken Wings!”

Winters: “Thirteen had enough, this has to be it.”

Thirteen drops for a cover, hooking a leg.

1!

2!

3!

The bell rings and Thirteen throws Gable's leg down as he gets up.

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

The referee raises Thirteen's hand as his music plays. Gable rolls over, cradling the worked over arm, his other hand on the back of his head.

Sharper: “Thirteen making a statement here, he isn't going to allow people like Dante McCaffery and Jack Parker and whoever their friend was put a stop to his momentum. Even now, look at him, he's looking all around, at the entrance, around ringside, ready for another possible sneak attack.”

Winters: “I doubt McCaffery is coming out here, he's facing Amy Chastaine later, he won't risk himself before a match like that.”

Sharper: “Maybe not but he has friends. And I don't blame Thirteen one bit for being wary.”

Gable rolls out of the ring as Thirteen continues to look around. He then drops down too and starts towards the ramp as we cut away.

We open up backstage to see Jessica Winters standing next to CHBK who is in the backstage area. Ravyn Taylor is with him as well. The crowd cheers seeing them.

 

Jessica: “Jessica Winters here and I am with CHBK and Ravyn Taylor and before I get to you Ravyn, a few people, including our commentators picked up on some cues you were giving Ravyn at Apocalypse, CHBK. Obviously, we’re becoming aware of your managerial services more and more as you’re watching and guiding Syren and Ravyn, only making them more dangerous in the ring-“

 

CHBK stops Jessica.

 

CHBK: “It was simple. I’ve been around this business for over thirty-five years. I’ve seen it all and done it all. And I was watching Bree and I’ve seen those people who thought that their crap didn’t smell and that they deserved it all. Why expose anything when Bree was going to do it all for us. And I was right. See, it’s that simple. Too many people want everything RIGHT now. They don’t realize what they are capable of. They don’t have patience. They don’t earn it all. And I’ve said it time and time again, Ravyn Taylor, Syren, and there are many others who have earned plenty. And they deserve to be celebrated. Someone like Bree….or Regan….they may have the talent, but let’s face it. Their attitude God damn sucks.”

 

The crowd cheers as Jessica turns to Ravyn.

 

Jessica: “Well Ravyn, you’ll be in action later tonight against Marie Jones, defending your Television Championship, but I want to get some comments on the Women’s Title. That match against Sienna Swann, it will now be at Under Attack and there has been that controversy. Why wasn’t Sienna here? She had no property there, but Mr. D has seemingly overlooked that and postponed the match until Under Attack.”

 

Ravyn: “Just postponing the inevitable. Sienna Swann can have her photoshoots. She can do whatever she needs to give herself any kudos as she comes head to head with me yet again, this time with far greater stakes at Under Attack. I have already defeated her twice, taking both of her titles from her. I’d love to know why she wasn’t at Apocalypse, but I expect something banal. She’s not capable of the nefarious. Instead, she’s just going to do whatever protects her image. That’s what this title means to her. The Women’s Title is an image maker and being the final Women’s Champion would just solidify it further. And while she can look glamourous as I’m sure Laura has plans for some photoshoot with the Women’s Title draped over certain body parts, all to sell copy, she’s forgetting that she has to still get past me in that ring. For someone who was originally supposed to overshadow Kelcey Wallace, she is falling into the same traps. But that’s fine. I enjoy the ability to kill her dream. It just adds to my mystique and the challenge of competing every week, defending one title, while getting ready to have the most important title defense the Women’s Championship has ever had. That’s a challenge I can certainly get behind. Quoth the Ravyn, nevermore!”

 

Ravyn and CHBK then walk off as Jessica turns to the camera.

 

Jessica: “Ravyn Taylor will defend her Television Championship later tonight against Marie Jones and her Women’s Championship against Sienna Swann at Under Attack. More Breakdown, after this!”

 

The scene slowly fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see Spirit Dansby standing backstage.

 

Spirit: “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Breakdown and we are following a number of stories tonight. We are waiting for the arrival of Taylor Chase for one. She has been turning down phone calls from SCW officials lately-“

 

Just then, we see Selena Frost coming into the scene. The crowd cheers.

 

Selena: “Spirit….sorry, but may I have that?”

 

Spirit: “Of course, Selena…here….”

 

Spirit turns and hands the microphone to Selena.

 

Selena: “Ace….it’s nice and cute that you can have your fake little news conferences, but also continue to show that you can spin a little tale and can also tuck your tail between your legs. I also realize that with all of the talk about rubber matches, you know damn well SCW could be taking the rematch I’ve asked for, as you got out by the skin of your teeth…it could be turned down. I know that despite all of the BS you spew, you know the game as well as anyone.”

 

Selena pauses for a moment.

 

Selena: “And that’s why I’m going to remind you about something. Vixen Cain tried the same thing with me and I don’t think I need to remind you how it ended…with him regretting every decision so badly he’s no longer even in this company!”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Selena: “See, a year ago, I’d have stood back and hoped. But now…you want to run. I’ll be coming after you. All you did at Apocalypse was prove me right that you had no respect for that title or anyone in this company. So Ace…I don’t think I have to tell you what that means….You’re not done with me….BELIEVE IT!”

 

Selena turns and hands the microphone back to Spirit. Selena then turns and walks off as the crowd cheers.

We then open up to the security checkpoint as “MOMENTS AGO” can be seen in the bottom corner. We then see Josh Hudson walking into the building before we see Regan Street and Mikaela Street and finally Laura Steinbeck, the Truelove Twins and Sienna Swann. The crowd boos seeing them.

 

Sharper: “And before Selena interrupted and she’s got every right to be fired up, moments ago, Past, Present, Future arrived. First time we’ve seen them since before Apocalypse. They’ve taken care of their affairs in Florida. They’re here.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but people questioning Sienna?”

 

Sharper: “Well I’m sure she’ll talk about it. I’m sure she’ll be told of Ravyn’s comments. But Regan Street is who we’re focusing on tonight. Regan is defending her US Championship against Blake Mason later tonight.”

 

We watch them walk past the camera as we then cut back to ringside after a few moments.

Edward Adams vs. Brian Brewster vs. Ikiro Yoshida vs. Imogen Reed

 

The opening to “Man In Motion/St Elmo’s Fire” by John Parr starts to play, bringing a lukewarm negative reaction from the crowd. With the opening lyrics, “300P” Edward Adams struts out on top of the ramp, looking out over the crowd with a face absolutely awash of arrogance – he knows he’s great, and is completely deaf to the reactions of the crowd. As the lyrics continue at a low tone, he makes his way down towards the ring.

Phillips: “The following fatal four way is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Edward Adams!”

He jumps onto the apron from the floor, holding onto the top rope with one arm, hanging by one arm and one leg over the floor. The crowd continues to jeer while he jaws at them before pulling himself into the ring. He moves to the corner, motioning to pull himself onto the ropes, but opts not to, only drawing further ire from the fans. “Waiting for the Kill” By Queensryche plays, and Brian Brewster appears at the top of the ramp. He smirks at the smattering of boos that come from the fans in the crowd that know him. Brewster starts down the ramp, the smirk still there but otherwise no care how the fans are reacting to him.

Phillips: “Introducing next, from Savannah, Georgia, Brian Brewster!”

He slides into the ring and stands opposite of Edward as red and white lights begin to flash wildly when the opening to Smooth Criminal (Violin Instrumental) by David Garrett begins to play over the P.A System. The SCW fans rise to their feet casting their eyes to the stage where the curtains part. A sudden pause befalls the arena until a man walks out out with a confident swagger in his step, Ikiro Yoshida. He wears his trademark red eye patch with a gold dragon emblazoned onto it along with his long sleeved jacket. A smirk appears on the Japanese superstar’s lips before he spins around once and drops down to one knee, both his arms outstretched while he looks down at the ground.

Phillips: “Ladies and Gentleman, hailing from the Fukushima prefecture, Japan, Ikiro Yoshida!”

The fans pop for the Japanese superstar, he leaps back up onto his feet and reaches into his jacket to remove what looks to be a pink plush Yoshi doll… He raises it up above his head with a grin before lowering his arm and walking down towards the ring with that same confident swagger from before. Ikiro quickly runs to the ring and slides in, following that up with a quicker roll to a knee. Ikiro sits the plush doll in front of him as he appears to talk to it… After kissing the tip of his index and forefinger, he places them on the forehead of the doll before picking it up and taking it to the corner where he sits it. Once removing his jacket, he hands it to the ring crew and begins to stretch before the bell.

Sharper: “Exciting match up here tonight. A few returning, a few fairly new still. Who will pull ahead with the momentum here tonight?”

Winters: “If we are going with the mystic factor I'd say Edward Adams. He's definitely the least experienced of all four here tonight though, Ikiro is just… Misunderstood.”

The arena goes dark and an eye melting orange spotlight pierces the darkness to illuminate the back of the orange haired woman on the stage as Shit-talker by State of Shock starts to play. She spins on her heel and struts down the ramp like she doesn't care who owns it because it's hers now.

Phillips: “And their final opponent, from Little Odessa, New York, Imogen Reed!

She winks and waves at the hotties in the crowd that call out to her, and flips off the haters that don't appreciate her shine. Imogen slides under the bottom rope to enter the ring, rolling to her feet. She spreads her arms in the centre of the ring and makes a “give it to me” gesture with her hands, absorbing the cat calls and boos like a boss. The referee proceeds to call for the bell as Adams immediately assaults Brewster from behind. Ikiro looks to Imogen awkwardly and looks her up and down while trying to say something. As the referee is distracted Imogen simply kicks him right below the belt causing Ikiro nearly to fall down as he makes a pained facial expression, yelling out.

Sharper: “Ikiro seems to know Reed in some way. Either she didn’t like what he was trying to say or just didn’t care either way and took advantage of his distraction.”

Winters: “Let’s go with the former for now. We all know the Japanese are giant perverts.”
Imogen connects with several right elbow shots knocking Ikiro into the corner. He makes a motion for a time out, causing Imogen to pause just long enough to poke him casually on the nose before turning and driving a knee into his mid section. Adams throws Brewster over with a vertical duplex before standing and delivering an elbow drop. He pulls Brewster up onto to get a quick kick to the mid section and a DDT center of the ring. He turns his attention over and goes over to Imogen, spinning her around and getting a backhand to the face in retaliation. Imogen connects with several forearms that knocks him back a step when Ikiro pops out of the corner and takes them both down with a running cross body. Rolling back to his feet he turns and strikes Adams as he’s getting to his feet with a multi-strike combo. He ends it with a spinning elbow strike to the mid section that causes Adams to buckle over from the last blow. He runs over and connects with a knee lift that puts him down on the mat. He goes to turn as suddenly Imogen rolls him up with a small package.

Brewster runs over and breaks the pin attempt with a kick just as Ikiro was about to kick out. He pulls Imogen up before quickly slamming her to the mat with a scoop slam. He pulls Ikiro up and connects with a hard right followed by a second. He connects with a third before whipping him into the ropes. He charges forward going for a clothesline which Ikiro ducks. Running across the ring into the opposite ropes Ikiro commies back with a flying kick to the face that knocks Brewster down. He turns to Imogen and looks to be debating with himself when Adams spins him around and rakes the eyes. He knees Ikiro repeatedly in the mid section before lifting him up for a reverse duplex and dropping him across the top rope. Adams takes several steps back and goes for a high knee, Ikiro sliding off of the top rope and landing on the apron to avoid. Adams turns and Ikiro guillotines him off of the top rope. Imogen grabs a hold of Adams from behind, rolling him up with a school boy.

1!

2!

Brewster drops a double axe handle to break up the pin attempt.

Sharper: “Everyone in it obviously for themselves, Imogen trying to capitalize twice to get the pin tonight.”

Winters: “Ikiro seemingly getting it from everyone, someone has to be there to pick up the pieces and she is showing she is obviously very resourceful.”

Brewster pulls Imogen up and connects with several rights before picking her up and going for a fall away slam. Imogen flips over his back just as Ikiro springboard himself off of the top rope. Brewster turns and gets grabbed by Ikiro in passing, Ikiro connecting with a flipping neckbreaker that takes Brewster down hard. Adams runs over as Ikiro turns to Imogen with two thumbs up and double clotheslines both of them to the mat. He drops down over Brewster for the pin.

1!

Brewster kicks out before the three. Adams pulls Brewster up and drops him quickly with a swinging neckbreaker. He stomps him several times just as Imogen is back to her feet. She climbs up to the second turnbuckle and as Adams turns she jumps and connects with a front drop kick that knocks him to the mat. She paces quickly over before going for the pin.

1!

2!

Ikiro breaks the pin attempt up before pulling Ikiro up. She immediately thumbs him in the eye before she begins wailing on him with a barrage of rights and lefts. Ikiro manages to stop it with a stiff kick to the side thst causes her to buckle over. The crowd ohs as he turns right into Brewster who lifts Ikiro up going for a powerbomb. Ikiro counters with a head body scissors take down. He flips back to his feet only to have his knee kicked out from him by Adams before he spikes Ikiro with a DDT. The crowd ohs again as he quickly makes the cover.

1!

2!

Ikiro kicks out before three. Adams stands only for Imogen to jump up from behind with a flying forearm to the back of the head that knocks Adams into the corner. She stands and connects with several kicks to the side. Brewster runs over and tries going for a body splash. Imogen moves out of the way as Brewster splashes Adams who proceeds to fall out of the corner face first to the mat. Imogen proceeds to run into the corner and drive her legs into Brewsters stomach, monkey flipping him center into the ring. Ikiro runs up from behind her before tossing her over the top rope.

Sharper: “Very competitive match up here, but if you have any hopes of victory here you need to in some way eliminate two of the other competitors.”

Winters: “Ikiro may have the right idea now if he just does as he did there and focuses with the head on his shoulders over the other one.”

Ikiro turns to the referee and makes a motion, trying to somewhat communicate. He nods his head joyfully as the referee confused tries to play along with a game of rock paper scissors. They go at it before the referee does rock and Ikiro lands with scissors. Ikiro seems to agree with this decision as Adams runs up from behind him and knocks him down with a clothesline to the back of the head. He stomps away at Ikiro just as Brewster runs up at that point and connects with an enziguri. The crowd ohs as Adams falls over and rolls out of the ring while grasping at his head. Brewster turns to Ikiro and goes to pull him up before getting a stiff blow to the gut that buckles him over. Ikiro proceeds to connect with a brainbuster. The crowd cheers as Ikiro proceeds to lock on the Dragons Bite. Brewster tries to fight out of it, unable to roll far on the mat before he begins to tap, Imogen on the outside sliding back in. It’s too late as the referee calls for the bell.

Phillips: “The winner of this contest via submission, Ikiro Yoshida!”

Sharper: “Imogen thrown out just a bit ago by Ikiro, Brewster taking out Adams. It was just long enough to give us the decisive action needed to determine the winner to this contest!”

Winters: “I just picture that man being fun to watch high.”

Sharper: “Really?!”

Winters: “Just a thought my neighbors or something said. I don’t know Adam, want is you want from me?”

“Smooth Criminal” begins to play again as Ikiro raises his arms up in victory. Imogen shakes her head as she slides back out of the ring, Adams on the outside trying to blame Brewster from the apron.

Breakdown returns as we see Gable Winchester backstage. He throws his elbow pad down on the ground as he walks over to a storage crate and sits on it. He then looks down as we then see Autumn Valentine and Ryan Watson walking over to him.

 

Ryan: “Aint this a sorry sight?”

 

Autumn: “Gable…”

 

Gable: “Now you care….after pretending you’re engaged. After everything…you attacked Jay-“

 

Ryan: “Mate, ya gotta understand-“

 

Autumn: “Ry…I got it.”

 

Autumn leans over to Gable.

 

Autumn: “I’m done being ignored. For most of this year I was. That’s not a shot at you. Just…I need to make decisions and well, I made them.”

 

Gable: “And it’s not you.”

 

Autumn: “It is now.”

 

Autumn then turns and walks off.

 

Ryan: “He aint gonna understand.”

 

Autumn: “His problem then.”

 

Autumn and Ryan walk off as Gable watches Autumn leave as he sighs and Breakdown cuts to commercial.

COMMERCIALS

Jason Helms vs. Craig Thomas

 

Phillips: “The following match is scheduled for ONE fall…”

“Adrenaline” by Shinedown begins blasting through the arena as blue and yellow lights pulse rapidly in an alternating fashion on the stage. As the opening guitar riffs of the song come to an end, blue and yellow pyro goes off on stage, and when the lyrics start Tyler Tucker excitedly leaps through the smoke and starts getting the fans amped up for the impending match. Right behind him are Craig Thomas and Stacy Kissinger hand-in-hand, both with big smiles on their faces as Craig puts an arm around Tyler’s shoulders and they all stare out at the cheering fans. When the song hits the chorus they all break into a full sprint down the ramp, Craig and Tyler leading as Stacy is right behind them.

Phillips: “Introducing first; accompanied to the ring by Stacy Kissinger and Tyler Tucker, he weighed in earlier tonight at two hundred and forty five pounds… CRAIG THOMAS!”

The boys simultaneously slide into the ring and Stacy hops up onto the apron behind them, where Craig will go and hold the ropes open for her to join them inside. The two of them share a quick kiss before Craig joins Tyler in climbing opposite corners and point out at the fans as Stacy stands in the middle of the ring between them, proudly pointing to the boys as the fans roar. Craig and Tyler both climb down and they all go to pose in the center of the ring, Tyler sliding onto his knees in front of Craig and Stacy as he extends his arms with a big smile as Craig puts a calming hand on his friend’s head, his other hand grabbing Stacy’s before they both throw their intertwined hands into the air. Craig helps Tyler to his feet and the group convenes to their corner to discuss strategy for the match ahead.

Sharper: “Despite the result not going their way at Apocalypse, Adrenaline Rush are showing the same unity as a team that we have come to expect from them over the last year…”

Winters: “Konrad Raab of course not here right now, as he’s off in Germany doing promo work for a show that’s MONTHS away… I guess the German fans need SOMETHING to distract them from the election going on right now?”

Sharper: “But I’m sure he’s watching right now, hoping to see Craig Thomas score a victory over his opponent tonight, who has been a thorn in the side of Adrenaline Rush and in particular Konrad Raab since Taking Hold of the Flame…”

The lights cut completely and after a brief pause, “Better Off This Way” by A Day To Remember kicks in over the speakers and a spotlight appears on the stage to show a smirking Jason Helms already standing there with his arms out wide. He throws his head back as the pyros pop on either side of the stage and the house lights raise as he suddenly sprints down to the ring.

Phillips: “And his opponent; from Red Bank New Jersey and now fighting out of Hollywood California; he weighed in earlier tonight at one hundred and ninety nine pounds, please give it up… for JASON HELMS!!!”

Helms hits the ring and slides under the ropes, popping straight back up to his feet and scaling the ropes to throw his arms out again in that same mock-crucifix pose. The fans boo as Jason jeers at them from his position on the ropes but he pays little attention to them as he turns and drops down into the corner, taking off his jacket and tossing it to the outside as he settles back into the corner, glancing across at Craig Thomas with a smirk on his face as his music fades out.

Winters: “Interesting to see that his wife isn’t out here with him tonight…”

Sharper: “And I’m sure the match will benefit from that fact. You saw the stunt Helms pulled at Apocalypse, the distraction. Aniya Helms was in on that and her absence will be one less opportunity for Jason Helms to break the rules tonight!”

Winters: “I wonder if she isn’t here because she went to Vegas instead? Jason apparently mixed up his schedule, was all but ready to fly out to Vegas before realizing the mistake so he didn’t get into Cincinnati until later than normal last night. Think his wife made the same mistake?”

Back in the ring, Tyler and Stacy make their way to the outside and the referee checks on Craig in the corner. He stands glaring across the ring at Jason as the ref checks him then turns to check on Jason. He pat’s him down in turn then turns and calls for the bell. Jason steps lazily out of his corner but Craig launches out of his and before Jason knows what’s happening, Craig starts firing off stiff shots. Helms is shaken and he staggers back towards the ropes but Craig follows. He fires another quick shot, another, then whips Helms across the ring. Jason bounces off the ropes and as he comes back, Craig throws him up and over with a belly to belly suplex to a roar from the fans. Craig looks to go for a quick cover but Jason rolls out of the ring and staggers toward the guard rail.

Sharper: “And Jason Helms now has to learn that actions have consequences!”

Winters: “Craig Thomas has been relentless so far, and I think Helms is a little surprised by that… arrogance no doubt, but I don’t think he was expecting Craig to come out of the blocks so quickly.”

Helms, leaning against the barricade, looks up at Craig in the ring, glaring right at him. He turns and starts to walk around the ring as if he’s going to leave but he finds himself blocked off by Tyler and Stacy. The two stand firm and Jason steps forward as if he’s thinking about taking them on but they only mirror his movements and he realizes he can’t get through. He turns around to walk the other way around the ring only to walk right into Craig who slides out of the ring behind Jason while he’s distracted and nails him with a hard palm strike to the chin before throwing him back into the ring. Craig slides in after him and immediately hooks the leg.

1…

Jason gets his shoulder up at just one but Craig doesn’t waste time in climbing back to his feet and dragging Jason back up. Jason staggers and Craig steps forward to grab Jason, whipping him into the corner. Taking a few steps back, Craig runs across the ring looking for a big corner clothesline but Jason gets the foot up and Craig’s chin connects with it. Craig staggers, grabbing the top rope to keep himself up as Jason pushes on the ropes to jump to the middle turnbuckle but Craig quickly lunges and grabs Jason by the head, throwing him forward and Helms flips over from the second rope to fall on the canvas.

Sharper: “And Craig Thomas has just been dominant in this match so far. He isn’t giving Jason Helms an inch!”

Winters: “Helms looked to try and take control just then with the boot but trying to go to the second rope cost him and Craig isn’t letting up…”

Tyler and Stacy cheer on from the outside and the fans echo their sentiments as Craig steps forward and pulls Helms back to his feet before throwing Jason’s arm over his shoulder and lifting him, driving him down with the Cynical Slam to a huge cheer from the fans! As Stacy applauds from the outside, Craig rolls Jason over and hooks the leg.

1…

2…

3…NO!

Winters: “Jason Helms gets the shoulder up JUST in time Adam, Craig Thomas looks stunned!”

Sharper: “A big waist lift sitout side slam, a move we’ve seen Craig use plenty of times to great effect but Jason Helms survives to live on in this match and Stacy and Tyler look just as shocked as Craig is!”

The camera shows the other members of Adrenaline Rush at ringside before cutting back to the ring and this time Craig is a little slower in getting back to his feet as he can’t quite believe Jason kicked out. Looking angry now, Craig pulls Jason up, and he quickly grabs Helms and lifts him up onto his shoulder looking for the Flipping The Bird. But somehow, Helms manages to wriggle his way off of Craig’s shoulder and drops down behind him before hitting a mule kick that catches Craig square between the legs and Craig doubles up in pain as the referee gets in Jason’s face. Jason holds his hands up, pleading his innocence and his face actually looks shocked as he waves his hands saying he didn’t know. The referee, cynical, turns to check on Craig and Jason turns, smirking as the fans boo him.

Sharper: “Oh come on! That should have been a clear disqualification ladies and gentlemen, an obvious low blow that was done intentionally!”

Winters: “He had his back turned to his opponent, Adam! Jason Helms acted on instinct with that mule kick and Craig just happened to be in the wrong place! The official clearly understands that Jason doesn’t have eyes in the back of his head and he’s giving him the benefit of the doubt…”

Sharper: “Instinct my left foot, that was intentional and you know it Shawn. Look at the smirk on his face, a picture says a thousand words and right now every one of those words is ‘guilty’!”

Jason looks down at Tyler and Stacy on the outside who are yelling at him in disgust and he just spits on the floor near them before turning and suddenly rushing in, almost knocking the referee out of the way as he looks to take advantage of the situation now. He hits two stiff punches to the kidneys of Craig before turning him around and hitting a European uppercut that sends him staggering toward the ropes. Jason follows and whips Craig across the ring and steps to the middle of the ring as Craig hits the ropes on the opposite side. Boucing off, Craig comes back across the ring and Jason jumps up, hitting a spinning heel kick that takes Craig down. Jason doesn’t let up though, dragging Craig back to his feet. Jason drags Craig nearer to the corner before applying a front face lock and snapping him up and over with a suplex straight into the turnbuckles. Craig crumples up in the corner as Jason rolls away before shooting back up to his feet and he steps back into the corner, grabbing the top rope on either side of the ring post for leverage as he presses his foot down across the throat of Craig. The referee orders him to make the break before starting a count.

Sharper: “So much disrespect from Jason Helms with that choke, and did you see the way he spat at Stacy and Tyler moments ago? He really is disgusting…”

Winters: “Are you kidding? Compared to his brother and nephew, this guy is a legend. I was beginning to think dull ran in the family but Jason clearly broke that trend thankfully!”

Jason, backing away from the corner, jeers at the fans from the middle of the ring as they rain boos down on him and he seems to soak it up, enjoying it. He starts mouthing off at them as Craig slowly rolls over onto his back, his head underneath the ropes as he looks a little out of it. Helms turns and sees the position Craig is now in and he steps to the ropes and grabs the tope rope to vault over them onto the apron. He runs forward and jumps, hitting a legdrop on Craig on the apron before landing on the ground outside of the ring and Craig rolls away to the middle of the ring clutching his throat as Helms turns and smirks at Tyler who stands nearby.

Helms: “You s-s-s-SEE that Tyler? Was that enough adrenaline for you, huh?!”

Jason sneers at Tyler, who looks like he wants to throw a punch and Helms steps forward, actually offering him his chin but Tyler doesn’t bite; he won’t give Helms the easy disqualification win. Stacy however, spots that the referee has his back turned to them on the outside and she turns, grabbing a drink from one of the fans on the front row and as Helms turns around, she throws the drink in his face and he stumbles back, blinded.

Sharper: “Ha! That’s what you get for goading people!”

Winters: “Why isn’t the official paying attention?! That should be a CLEAR disqualification for Craig Thomas!”

Tyler, seeing Craig rolling to his knees, grabs Helms and throws him back into the ring before quckly stepping back and Stacy and Tyler both get out of the area as the referee turns around and sees Helms dripping way. He looks around but Stacy and Tyler are now on the other side of the ring almost and he turns as Craig starts to drag Helms to his feet. Craig whips Jason into the ropes and when he comes back he lifts him up and drops him with a big samoan drop, hooking the leg and the referee slides into position.

1…

2…

Jason kicks out at two but Craig rolls forward and to his feet before turning to lift Jason up again. Jason though, grabs Craig by the head and drops down for a jaw breaker and Craig stumbles back into the corner, falling to a seated position as Jason gets to his feet. He sees Craig seated and he runs into the corner, hitting him square in the face with the On The Boardwalk corner yakuza kick and the fans boo as Jason has to disentangle himself from Craig before trying to drag him out of the corner.

Sharper: “Jason Helms wants to make a cover but he has to get him away from the ropes…”

Winters: “Craig Thomas is a good deal bigger than Jason though; five inches, forty six pounds… that’s no insignificant difference. And every second that passes is a chance of recovery for Craig, Jason has to have that on his mind…”

Jason eventually manages to drag Craig from the corner and he drops down to make the cover, yelling at the referee to move faster.

1…

2…

NO!

Craig fires the shoulder up at two and the fans all cheer at the sight of his shoulder leaving the mat. Craig rolls over and Helms gets in the face of the referee, accusing him of a slow count and slapping his hands together three times but the referee simply ignores his protestations and holds up two fingers. Helms looks like he’s about to punch the referee for a moment before pushing up to his feet and grabbing Craig, attempting to pull him up. But Craig surprises Jason and quickly rolls him up, to a cheer from the fans.

1…

2…

3…NO!

Sharper: “Another close fall for Craig Thomas and that rollup nearly caught Jason Helms napping!”

Winters: “Helms was concerned with the poor officiating, which we’ve seen a spate of over the last few weeks. We need more rigorous training it seems, because that slow count almost cost Jason helms this match…”

Craig, a second wind under his sails, rolls to his knees and pulls Jason up too. In the centre of the ring, Craig whips Jason into the ropes and he bends down waiting for Jason to come back, looking for a spinebuster. Jason manages to leapfrog over the top of Craig though, and hits the cables on the other side of the ring. He runs back at Craig but Craig catches him and spins out with a huge powerslam that rattles the whole ring. Craig rolls away and back to his feet as Jason, groggy, starts to get up too. Craig steps in and throws a hard right, then another, before another Shotei palm shot and Jason staggers. Stacy and Tyler scream him on from ringside as he makes chase and grabs a hold of Jason before he can try and slide out of the ring again. He pulls his foot, dragging Jason along the ring and the smaller man has to almost walk on his hands before he manages to spin around and kick out at Craig to get free. Jason gets back up, but Craig hits him with a stiff elbow and before Jason can stagger back Craig lifts him up, dropping him with a big sidewalk slam.

Sharper: “And Craig Thomas is just on fire right now folks, Jason Helms has no answer to this offense and we may see the end quite soon!”

Sharper: “The Adrenaline Rush member is just bullying Jason right now, he can’t catch his breath and with his speed advantage, Jason will be looking to run rings around the bigger Craig Thomas… that can’t happen if you’re constantly being thrown onto the ground!”

Craig thinks about making the cover and the fans clearly agree that he should, roaring him on. But Craig has other ideas and he gets back to his feet before pulling Jason up. He once again lifts Jason up for the Flipping The Bird, but just like last time, Jason somehow manages to wriggle free and drop down behind Craig. Craig spins around just in time for Jason to leap backwards with the ReAwakening, a big Pele kick that sends Craig falling to the canvas like a felled tree in the middle of the ring.

Sharper: “Desperation move from Jason Helms, but it’s a success none the less… Pele kick floors Craig Thomas and both men are now down!”

Winters: “That wasn’t in desperation Adam, Jason Helms knew exactly what he was doing and look, he’s getting back to his feet!”

In the ring, Jason is indeed getting back to his feet and he sees Craig down in the middle of the ring and he sees his opportunity. Staggering a little, Jason walks to the corner and he climbs to the top rope, looking down at Craig who is still out on the canvas. The fans boo as Jason throws his arms out in the same mock crucifix pose from his entrance before leaping from the top, looking for the Forgotten No More swanton bomb. He sees Craig rolling over just in time and he manages to turn the dive into a roll and Craig leaps up to his feet as Jason rolls back to his. Craig goes for a clothesline but Jason ducks underneath and as Craig spins around to face him again, Jason jumps and grabs Craig by the head before hitting the Back From The Dead.

Sharper: “No!”

 

Winters: “YES!”

With the fans booing, Stacy and Tyler scream support on from the outside as Jason rolls Craig over and hooks the leg. The referee slides in and makes the count.

1…

2…

3!!!

“Better Off This Way” hits the speakers again as Helms rolls off and immediately rolls out of the ring, the fans booing.

Phillips: “Here is your winner… JASON HELMS!”

The fans continue to boo as Jason, on his knees on the outside, smirks. He holds his jaw a little from the palm strikes he took during the match but he gets up and looks over at Tyler and Stacy who stand nearby on the outside, glaring at him. Jason starts mouthing off at them, walking over to them and getting in their face again as Tyler and Stacy stand their ground.

Sharper: “Even in victory, he has to be a jackass…”

Winters: “Can you blame him, Adam? That’s three times he’s picked up a victory over Adrenaline Rush now, in one way shape or form. Jason Helms is proving himself in this company and he’s only going to improve as he goes on… and it doesn’t seem like he’s finished just yet either!”

The cameras cut back to Jason as he shoves Tyler back, the music fading out again as Tyler suddenly gets in the face of Jason and the two start to trade blows. Tyler staggers back briefly but out of nowhere, Craig Thomas slides from the ring and suddenly it’s two on one. The Adrenaline Rush members have obviously had enough and they throw Jason into the barricade. The fans cheer as Jason, coughing, tries to stand but Craig and Tyler grab him and hold him by the arms and before he can even begin to struggle, Stacy hits a huge superkick straight to his chin and he crashes down to the mats on the outside, done. “Adrenaline” by Shinedown starts to play instead as the three members of Adrenaline Rush begins to make their way towards the ramp, Tyler kicking Jason’s arm out of the way as he passes and they celebrate on the ramp, Craig holding his head a little as the camera cuts back to show Jason stirring.

Winters: “Disrespect. Such a sore loser! Horrible behavior from Adrenaline Rush Adam, absolutely horrid…”

Sharper: “And there’s Jason Helms… he doesn’t exactly look like the winner right now, does he?”

The cameras cut from Adrenaline Rush celebrating as they exit to show Jason Helms glaring at them from ringside, still laid on the floor and holding his jaw. The camera zooms in to show the glare on his face before the scene cuts backstage

We open up at the SCW interview area to see Spirit Dansby standing by.

 

Spirit: “Spirit Dansby here and one of the stories at Apocalypse was the growing tension and anger from Rachel Foxx towards Donovan Kayl. Kayl managed to defeat Rachel Foxx at Apocalypse, but my guest at this time, she still has something to say. Please welcome Rachel Foxx.”

 

Foxx steps into the scene and looks right at Spirit. Spirit just turns to her, looking a bit uncomfortable.

 

Foxx: “A tepid introduction to a Hall of Famer who is merely making sure the legacy of someone else who should be enshrined beside me, my own flesh and blood, doesn’t get tainted by the mediocrity and selfishness of his best friend.”

 

Foxx pauses.

 

Foxx: “But the lack of respect Donovan Kayl shows myself and Simon is just part of the same narrative, so I will just let it pass. Donovan may have slinked out, managing to just get enough to defeat me, but he is not done with me. He will not be done with me. I have not yet extracted the taxes that he owes Simon.”

 

Spirit: “But Simon has said he’s fine. He had a great close to his career-“

 

Foxx: “Because he is too nice for his own good. And Donovan, showing his cowardice as he was supposed to be here, but sent home, as his knee was still in disrepair. Next time I cross paths, I will make sure that is the least of his worries. I am coming to collect and Donovan Kayl will not be able to run!”

 

Foxx looks at the camera before she turns and looks at Spirit before walking off camera. Spirit watches her leave as the scene slowly fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see Amy Chastaine in her locker room, taking her wrestling gear out of her bag and placing it on the bench next to her. The crowd cheers seeing her as we then see Kennedy Street walk into the room as the crowd cheers more.

 

Kennedy: “Hi honey…ready for tonight.””

 

Amy glances back.

 

Amy: “Oh, hey Kennie. And yeah…”

 

Kennedy: “I’m not talking about the match. That piece of paper. You’ve still not shown me.”

 

Amy just looks down.

 

Amy: “I’m ready for that too. After the match though. One thing at a time…”

 

Kennedy: “Look, I can be there for you too.”

 

Amy: “No…I appreciate it. But this is something I need to do alone. I need to know for myself first. And that’s why I didn’t tell you. I don’t want you part of this yet. After tonight….well, you can do what you want.”

 

Kennedy: “Okay, Amy. Just know, I’m here for you. Always will be. I mean…we’re a team down. Brave and Elegant.”

 

Amy: “B.A.E.”

 

Kennedy winks and she walks off as Amy watches her leave as we cut back to ringside.

KABLAAAAAAAAAAM!!!


The opening horns of “Weird Al” Yankovic’s “Wanna B Ur Lovr” begin to play out over the crowd, meaning the crowd is about to be “graced” by the presence of a living love machine – the man known as Derek Adonis! We notice in the middle of the ring we see a shot of a poster on an easel of Derek Adonis’ new book The KABLAMa Sutra. Derek Adonis steps out from the back. He looks around, holding a copy of his book in his hand. He holds it up as the crowd actually cheers him a bit.

 

Winters: “How is this guy getting cheered?”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know, but his new…book, we’ll call it that. It’s a best seller on the SCW website.”

 

Winters: “So people really must hate their friends?”

 

Sharper: “Ikiro Yoshida swore by it.”

 

Adonis walks down to the ring and smiles as he struts down the rampway. He stops at the floor and does a bit of a spin before walking over to the steel steps. He then walks up them and into the ring. He looks around before turning and looking at the poster and smiling before turning and walking over to the corner and being handed a microphone. He takes it and turns back to the middle of the ring. His music continues to play as Adonis gyrates a bit and then looks around. The crowd starts to yell out and cheer as Adonis looks around. He then brings the microphone to his lips.

 

Adonis: “KABLAM!”

 

The crowd roars as Adonis just nods and looks around.

 

Adonis: “Ladies and gentlemen, you are here because thanks to each and every one of you, especially all the ladies out there that wanted to know just what a night with Man Mountain would be like….The KABLAMA Sutra is the highest selling book on the SCW Website!”

 

The crowd roars as Adonis looks around. The camera focuses on the poster for a moment before cutting back.

 

Adonis: “And with everyone wanting to know all of my secrets, which are in this special edition, that all of you can order right now, I’ve been getting offers from all over. The cast of Hamilton wants to do a stage play based on it. Playboy AND Cosmo are out of business thanks to my tips….”

 

Adonis looks around, almost waiting for the crowd to catch on.

 

Adonis: “KABLAM!”

 

Adonis looks around as he backs up a bit. He then turns and continues.

 

Adonis: “And Man Mountain….he’s already been contacted by Hollywood. And oh yes, Man Mountain has already gotten the KABLAMA Sutra turned into a brand new romantic movie that will make Fifty Shades of Grey completely blah. This is the movie that all the women want to see guys. And on top of that, guys…you don’t even need to pull the Deadpool swerve. It’s for all of you as well. Watch and learn on the big screen this Christmas as well….Let’s just play the trailer!”

 

Sharper: “There’s a trailer?”

 

Winters: “Was it filmed on his cell phone?”

 

Adonis turns to the big screen as the scene fades to black.

 

“THIS CHRISTMAS SEASON…Get ready for the most orgasmic thrill-ride…”

 

We see an explosion of fire come across the screen.

 

“This Christmas…get ready for the experience that will make Santa put you on his naughty list…”

 

We see roses fly across in another explosion.

 

“This Christmas…get ready for the date that will leave you both weak at the knees…”

 

We hear the sound of a woman moaning.

 

“This Christmas…”

 

We then suddenly see Arnold Braunschweiger, wearing a really obvious white wig, looking right at the camera and doing a bit of a gyration.

 

Braunschweiger: “KAH-blam!”

 

“Arnold Braunschweiger is learning…”

 

We then see Braunschweiger suddenly embraced in an over the top embrace and kiss in the middle of some random dance club.

 

“The KABLAMA Sutra!”

 

We then see a shot of Braunschweiger making out with several twenty-something brunettes, before showing him in the throws of passion, having done some articulate stretching while a woman is wrapped around him, conveniently with all of the private areas not seen. We then randomly, for some reason, see a building explode, presumably from the orgasmic power of the teachings. We see another shot of a typical jock, not even trying to hide the stereotype, flirting with a blonde cheerleader, who for some reason is wearing the cheerleader outfit in a bar.

 

Man: “So…wanna get a taste of this?”

 

The scene then cuts back to the cheerleader to see Braunschweiger standing in front of her. He then looks at him.

 

Braunschweiger: “You look like you taste like cream cheese.”

 

The cheerleader then randomly just punches the man, causing him to just fall back. Braunschweiger turns to her.

 

Braunschweiger: “I like strong women.”

 

Cheerleader: “Well then I can show you what else you may like…”

 

The cheerleader winks before we cut to a shot of the two of them drinking tea as the cheerleader, now dressed normally, sitting next to Braunschweiger. Braunschweiger’s eyes open, almost stunned.

 

Cheerleader: “Exactly. And trust me…it feels AMAZING. Would you like to try?”

 

Braunschweiger: “I wo-AH-uld.”

 

We then suddenly see a member of THEM crash through the window and almost immediately, Jacques Christophe Von Doome runs across the screen and jump kicks him down. We then see a random shot of a car chase, followed by a shot of Chuck Taurus looking at a woman as they suddenly start to have an orgasm. We then see a shot of Jacques Christophe Von Doome shirtless, doing some stretching. We then see another random explosion, this one seemingly bigger than the first one. We then see a shot of Braunschweiger lying on the bad handcuffed with the cheerleader in her bra and panties, straddling him, as in slow motion, we see Chuck Taurus, Von Doome, and Sly Malone randomly fighting members of THEM. We then cut away to the outside of an apartment building as we then see all of the windows shattered in one moment.

 

Braunschweiger: “KAH-BLAM!”

 

We then cut to a shot of the KABLAMA Sutra logo.

 

“The KABLAMA Sutra!”

 

We then randomly cut to a shot of Madison Chase in a book store looking at the book.

 

Madison: “As if!”

 

We then cut to another black screen.

 

“In Theatres, Christmas 2017!”

 

We cut back to the ring to see Derek Adonis in the ring, a tear in his eye as he applauds. He then wipes it from his eye.

 

Adonis: “That’s right…the KABLAMA Sutra…the Christmas gift that keeps giving…Give your love of your life…or of the moment, the book, the movie….and the experience too…KABLAM!”

 

Just then, “I am Machine” starts to play. The crowd boos as Derek Adonis turns to the entrance way. We then see Brittany Lohan walking out from the back. She just looks down at the ring and snarls a bit before starting to make her way to the ring, calmly, but very rigidly. Derek Adonis looks around.

 

Sharper: “Well Adonis having some fun-“

 

Winters: “What the hell did I just watch and why am I happy that Brittany Lohan is coming down to the ring?”

 

Sharper: “I’m not exactly sure why. But here she comes. Derek Adonis alone in the ring, still holding his book.”

 

Lohan walks over to the ring and grabs the ropes and pulls herself up onto the apron. She steps into the ring and looks right at Derek Adonis. Adonis then starts to smile and brings the microphone back to his mouth as he extends the book in his hand.

 

Adonis: “Did you come to learn the teachings of the KABLAMA Sutra from Man Mountain himself?”

 

Lohan turns away as the crowd roars. Lohan then nods before suddenly turning and drilling Adonis with the For Your Eyes Only. The crowd ohs and boos. Adonis falls over as Lohan then turns and grabs the poster and just looks at it before breaking it over the ringpost. The crowd boos some more. She then throws the poster down. Adonis remains down and out.

 

Sharper: “Brittany Lohan coming out and her just taking Adonis’ head off!”

 

Winters: “I guess that’s a no!”

 

Sharper: “And destroying the poster and ruining Adonis’ fun. This crowd was enjoying themselves and Lohan taking him out.”

 

Lohan then turns and exits to the floor. She then stretches her neck out before just walking to the back. The crowd boos as Lohan walks up the rampway to the back as Adonis remains down in the ring.

Backstage, we open up to see Shaun Cruze pacing a bit backstage. The crowd cheers a bit seeing him, before booing. He can be seen waiting for someone before we then see Kelcey Wallace walking over to him. The crowd cheers.

 

Kelcey: “Shaun…you can’t keep pacing here waiting for her.”

 

Cruze: “You’ve heard the rumours.”

 

Kelcey just nods.

 

Kelcey: “Yeah, I have and you know as well as I do that she’s trying to change the narrative again. She’s running and trying to control it.”

 

Cruze: “She put me through all of this and she wanted her match. I didn’t want it. But now she’s not showing up. She’s not here. She didn’t show up at Apocalypse and you and I both don’t see Taylor as the type of person to take a hammer and nail and start to board up her own house.”

 

Kelcey: “That’s true. And for how badly she wanted…”

 

Cruze sighs.

 

Cruze: “Look, I just want to start moving past this. AJ’s off tonight. He was strung along after Apocalypse. Wasn’t supposed to be here. Then was. That BS and what others are pulling. And now I back as the World Tag Champion. I just want to get through tonight, take care of this so I can be the best tag partner I can be with AJ. The damage is done. Fighting her…it won’t help me. The truth is out.”

 

Kelcey: “Yeah, well, I’ll happily fight her.”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Cruze: “Well I’m sure it will be classic-“

 

Kelcey: “I said a fight, not a wrestling match. For you though, I owe you a wrestling match.”

 

Cruze turns and looks at Kelcey.

 

Cruze: “I did here you wanted that match against me before you call it a day.

 

Kelcey: “Already filed with the boss. It’s up to him now. At least I can help you rebuild your reputation in the ring. The rest…you’re a good man. You can do that through your actions.”

 

Kelcey pats Cruze on the back and walks off as Cruze turns and keeps waiting. The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as we see Jessica Winters standing outside of the Past, Present, Future locker room. The crowd boos as we see Sienna Swann standing next to Jessica.

 

Jessica: “Welcome back to Breakdown. Jessica Winters here outside of the locker room of Past, Present, Future, and I am with Sienna Swann. Sienna, a lot of people are questioning why you weren’t here for Apocalypse, especially with such a huge match-“

 

Sienna: “See, this is why sometimes professional wrestling is so unbecoming. I was there with my friends. Regan and Mikaela needed to go back and I was there to support them. Sometimes things are bigger than wrestling-“

 

Jessica: “Then why have we also heard rumours that you were engaged in several photo shoots in Florida to take advantage of the Hurricane-“

 

Sienna cuts off Jessica.

 

Sienna: “Anything about my modeling. That can be taken up with Laura. I was with friends and now, after watching Bree stagger through another disappointment, I can now remind Ravyn about something she seems to overlook. She may have defeated me twice. The first, she needs to cheat her way. The second, she slipped out of it and got lucky. Third time is not going to be the charm where she proves how amazing she is. She keeps comparing me to Kelcey. Well, I never tapped! And I am not going to let you get in my head and hold this over my head. You are right about one thing….being the final SCW Women’s Champion would be an amazing addition to my career and to be able to remove the stench of Dark Fantasy on it as it becomes mine forever…even better. So Ravyn, I’ll be enjoying your match in just a few moments. You don’t need to worry. You don’t deserve another Kiss from an Angel tonight. I have one left and it will be waiting for you at Under Attack.”

 

Sienna then smiles.

 

Sienna: “Tonight, I’ll just watch you sweat.”

 

Sienna smiles as she proudly stands next to Jessica Winters.

 

Jessica: “Back to ringside.”

 

We cut to the ring.

Marie Jones vs. Ravyn Taylor

SCW Television Championship

 

"You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and its all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And its comin' over you like its all a big mistake"
"Holding my breathe, won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold"

A spotlight shines down at the top of the entrance ramp. Pyro goes off. Then Marie Annabelle Jones steps through the curtain, wearing her ring gear and her signature black leather jacket. A broad, somewhat condescending grin is on her face as she gaze out at the fans in the arena who cheer loudly. The Tron shows images of her striking at her opponents with her finishing and signature moves as the lyrics of "Haunted" by Taylor Swift begin to flow through the arena. Marie begins to make her way down towards the ring to loud cheering from the fans.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall, has a thirty minute time limit and is for the SCW Television Championship! First, on her way to the ring, the challenger, from Boston, Massachusetts, she is the Phoenix, Marie Jones!”

 

As for Marie herself, she stops to slap a few high fives with fans, recognizing them as they cheer her. Then her focus is solely on the ring and the determined stride with which she walks tells that story. Marie hops up onto the ring apron. She strikes a sultry and sexy pose for the audience. Marie turns and leaps over the top rope and into the ring. She then hops up onto the second turnbuckle of the nearby corner and holds her arms up high into the air, getting a reaction from the crowd.

 

Sharper: “Marie Jones got through three others at Apocalypse, including a former Dark Fantasy member in Autumn Valentine and Infamous member Brittany Lohan.”

 

Winters: “A big win to get her back on track after losing the US Title, but this is going to be a considerable challenge. Not just Ravyn Taylor, but CHBK will be in her corner. That’s been made clear tonight.”

 

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

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

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

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

“Bad Girl” by Avril Lavigne hits the PA system as the lights come back up and we see the screens playing images of Ravyn Taylor’s various antics in and out of the ring. After a few moments the curtains part and Ravyn steps out on to the stage with a smirk on her face. She’s dressed in ring gear that includes her normal ring jacket covering a small, revealing bra top and a pair of skin tight hot-pants with the words ‘BAD GIRL’ across the back. She holds both the SCW Women’s and Television Championships. She stops on the stage, twirling for the camera almost mockingly.

 

Phillips: “And her opponent, accompanied by CHBK, she is the reigning and defending SCW Television Champion and the SCW Women’s Champion, from Hell, Michigan, she is Ravyn Taylor!”

 

Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy


After a few moments she starts to make her way down to ringside. CHBK walks out after her and walks down to the ring, a few strides behind her. Ravyn reaches the ring and then steps up the ring steps, wiping her feet on the apron before vaulting over the top turnbuckle and rolling back to her feet. She walks over to the far corner of the ring, stepping on to the middle turnbuckle and removes her ring jacket, looking down at herself with a look of admiration before stepping off the turnbuckle again. CHBK walks over to that corner. Ravyn folds the jacket up and places it in the corner before dropping to a seated position, looking up at the referee and shaking her head as he tries to tell her to get to her feet so he can pat her down. Instead, she hands him the SCW Television Championship and CHBK takes the Women’s Championship and holds onto it as Ravyn pulls herself up. The SCW Television Championship logo comes across the screen.

 

Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor back to her weekly defenses. There have been some rumblings of people upset about that, but it’s not up to her how she is booked. Blake Mason convinced the board one week to have Bree Lancaster challenge her for the Women’s Title instead and to forgo that TV defense.”

 

Winters: “And that’s the thing. It’s smart to just go with the flow here.  The TV Title is hell enough as is and Ravyn Taylor is going to take advantage of the opportunities in front of her and how they shake out. She’s been competing every week though.”

 

The referee hands off the title to Jason Phillips. Ravyn looks at Marie as the bell sounds. The two circle around the ring. They lunge and grapple and Ravyn turns into a side headlock. She pulls back and Marie pulls her into the ropes and fires her off. She bounces off and Marie goes for a shoulder, but Ravyn leans in and shoulders her down. She then grabs Marie, but Marie leg trips Ravyn. Marie runs into the ropes. Ravyn turns and dives towards Marie, trying to take out her legs. Marie manages to jump over and bounces off the other side and Ravyn goes for a back elbow. Marie ducks and jumps to the middle rope. She turns and grabs Ravyn’s arm and spins through arm drags Ravyn over. Ravyn rolls over and gets up. Marie goes for a dropkick. Ravyn sidesteps and swats her down. Marie hits the mat. Ravyn dives over her and into a Oklahoma roll.

Marie kicks out. Both get up and Ravyn pushes her into the corner. She then chops her. The crowd woos. She chops her again. More woos. She then turns and whips Marie across. Ravyn runs after and Marie jumps up and floats over. Ravyn stops at the corner and turns around and Marie snapmares her down and then hits a dropkick to the back. Ravyn rolls away and to the middle of the ring before rolling towards the ropes.

 

Sharper: “Marie quickly with the dropkick. Ravyn getting some distance as fast as she can.”

 

Winters: “Going right to the ropes. Partially to prevent a pin. Partially for leverage.”

 

Sharper: “CHBK just looking on and we’ve seen some of his stylings already. Ravyn more willing to technically wrestle with bigger and faster individuals.”

 

Marie follows after as Ravyn starts to get up at the ropes and Marie kicks her in the ribs. Ravyn turns and Marie forearms her. She whips her across. Ravyn bounces off and Marie jumps up and hits a leg lariat. She hits the mat and goes for the pin.

Sharper: “Big suplex. Ravyn takes Marie down and plants her.”

 

Winters: “Ravyn using some strength there. Not her M.O., but she will take charge from here. Marie better figure out a counter and fast.”

 

Ravyn rolls over and hits an elbow drop. She then gets up and Marie rolls over. She slowly stirs and Ravyn pulls her up and drags her back and hits a Russian leg sweep. She rolls through and into a pin.

Ravyn exits to the apron. Marie starts to get up and turns and Ravyn just kicks her in the face and Marie hits the mats hard. (2) The crowd ohs and Ravyn drops down to the floor.

Sharper: “Ravyn not giving Marie much time to think.”

 

Winters: “Goes for the pin. Doesn’t work, immediately on her. Just smart.”

 

Ravyn then hooks Marie up by the head. She throws her arm over her head and grabs her leg. She goes to lift her up, but Marie blocks it. She then tries again, but Marie nails her in the ribs and Ravyn loses grip on her leg. Marie nails her again before then pushing out, but pulling down on Ravyn’s head and catching her with her inside leg. Ravyn falls back as the crowd ohs. Marie turns and starts to get up.

Sharper: “Ravyn! She dropped Marie with that DDT, but she’s going for…”

 

Winters: “The camel clutch. Looking to make Marie tap!”

 

Sharper: “Her variation, the Ars Moriendi. We’ve not seen that in years!”

 

Winters: “Guess CHBK is encouraging her to expand her playbook again. That’s all I can think of. They locked eyes before and I don’t think it was to make dinner plans.”

 

Marie however fights and Ravyn tries to hook her arms, but Marie slides through and pulls on Ravyn’s arms causing her to flip forward. Marie then jumps up and forward and pulls back on Ravyn’s legs, bridging back into a pin.

Ravyn then turns and runs over to Marie and climbs up to the middle rope. She then nails Marie with a hard forearm and then another. As she does, we then see Bree Lancaster and Blake Mason running down from the back. Bree slides into the ring. CHBK then hops onto the apron.

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

 

The scene then cuts to inside the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio where we then move to the inside of the ring to see Bree Lancaster standing in the ring. Blake Mason is with her. The ring is otherwise cleared as Bree has a microphone in her hand. The crowd can be seen booing her.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Cincinnati and Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster are still in the ring!”

 

Knots: “Yeah! And looks like Bree has something to say!”

 

Bree: “Are we back? Did we need to have a commercial break just because we showed up? We inserted a bit of class into the proceedings.”

 

Bree then turns to Blake.

 

Bree: “Just another reason why you should be running the show, babe. You knew what people came to see and what people should watch.”

 

The crowd boos as Bree looks around. Blake just smiles and nods.

 

Bree: “Now later, you’re going to see Regan Street and Blake Mason leave it all in this ring for the SCW United States Championship. But that makes why I am out here even more important. THEY deserve a fair match!”

 

Knots: “Damn right!”

 

Sharper: “And yes, folks, Jonathan Knots has joined me here at ringside.”

 

Bree looks around.

 

Bree: “I don’t think I need to tell you that I should be standing here as the Women’s Champion! If one damn official realized the rules of wrestling, not only would I have not had to come out like this, but I would be on the fast track to being the final Women’s Champion. But no…he couldn’t keep his hands off me. He needed to get in my way. He needed to obstruct. He needed to cost me HISTORY.”

 

Bree looks out at the crowd. The crowd boos more.

 

Bree: “See this is the problem here in SCW. We have officials wanting to be the story instead of letting one of the best wrestlers in the world take their rightful place in history and now I am unable to get the opportunity I shouldn’t even have to ask for.”

 

Bree shakes her head.

 

Bree: “So I hope Ravyn Taylor enjoyed the little reminder that she should not be champion. After all of the leniency showing, it is clear there is bias on behalf of the officials and I demand each and every one of them be replaced and if you need some proper officiating, Blake and I have some people we can get you in touch. Because frankly, these officials here in SCW are going to get someone hurt. They are going to prevent greatness from being realized.”

 

Bree then holds up her hand.

 

Bree: “And before some of you smart alecks in the crowd ask, yes, Blake and I could just go to the Board and they would listen to us, but we figure that in a sign of good faith, they are human after all, even if they are incapable of good judgment, appropriate officiating or even basic common sense or consistency, that they deserve one final chance. In fact, I would like the official from my match at Apocalypse to come out here right now and personally deliver an apology.”

 

Sharper: “Oh come on! Notice how she’s just running her mouth and never once asked someone to show the footage in which she clearly shoves the official.”

 

Knots: “She was entering to stop a pin.”

 

Sharper: “One that had not happened yet!”

 

Bree then turns to the entrance way.

 

Bree: “So…whatever your name was, please come out and personally apology. If you’re convincing, I’m sure Blake and I can convince you to eventually officiate another high profile match.”

 

Sharper: “Bree’s arrogance just starting to ooze out of her at every turn.”

 

Knots: “She’s just realizing what she deserves and she deserves to be facing Sienna Swann to be the final Women’s Champion!”

 

Bree then turns as Blake then walks over to the microphone and leans in.

 

Blake: “The least we can offer.”

 

Bree smiles as the crowd boos some more. Blake looks around and we then see not the official of the match, one Steven Hollinsworth, but instead senior official Aaron Demitra. He walks out from the back. He has a microphone in his hand. We then see other SCW officials, Jackson Kohl and Steven Hollinsworth walk out with him. The three look down at the ring.

 

Bree: “You didn’t need to bring your reffing buddies. Come on, just come down here.”

 

Demitra: “Bree….I think you should listen to us for a change.”

 

The crowd cheers as Bree just looks at them before turning to Blake stunned that Aaron Demitra would respond that way.

 

Demitra: “Because we have just finished delivering a statement to Mr. D and the SCW Board of Directors. Your insults on Twitter and your long history of showing a blatant lack of basic respect to us….to which your current comments only further show…we as a whole refuse to officiate EITHER of your matches from this point forward.”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Knots: “Can they do that?”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know!”

 

Bree: “Excuse me?! It’s an honour to officiate my matches and Blake’s matches. That is simply your loss. Maybe then we can get some good officiating from here on out!“

 

Just then, we see Mr. D walking out of the back and over to Aaron Demitra. Demitra turns to him and says something. Mr. D responds and Demitra hands him the microphone.

 

Bree: “Good…you may do something about this! We just want fairness!”

 

Mr. D: “Bree…please shut up for a moment!”

 

The crowd erupts in cheers. Bree’s eyes widen. Blake then steps forward and grabs the microphone from Bree.

 

Blake: “You don’t talk to her like that!”

 

Mr. D: “Blake, you shut up too. And to make sure they do, cut their mic.”

 

The crowd roars as Blake just bristles in anger.

 

Mr. D: “You two have had a lot of fun paying a lot of people off for the last couple of months. So much so that I need to watch my step to see who you may have in your pocket.”

 

Blake and Bree just look on.

 

Mr. D: “Now you can go and call whoever you’re greasing on the Board and sure, go ahead, do that. I’m sure our internal investigators would love that. We have a legitimate grievance here and if it was to just be dismissed or even if our officials were wholesale fired or replaced, that would look quite suspicious.”

 

The crowd roars. Blake just shakes his head.

 

Blake: “Prove anything!”

 

Mr. D: “But as far as I am concerned, I am going to honour their protest. And therefore, that means well, one of two things happens to every match I book either of you in…that is if I choose not to simply suspend you, but well, I think you two need to realize the consequences of your actions in that ring. And well, what it means is that every one of your matches either are unsanctioned, which means you both are disqualified from ANY title opportunities.”

 

Bree and Blake both step forward at that thought as the crowd roars.

 

Mr. D: “Or…I need to find a special guest referee and note I stress…I need to find it. Now I think you want your US Title shot later tonight, and may I remind you, I gave you that opportunity for a specific reason. You will still have it and I will grant you this one title shot. But if I were you, I’d start treating certain people a lot better.”

 

Mr. D then steps back as he turns and shakes Aaron Demitra’s hand before turning and shaking Hollinsworth’s and Kohl’s hands. Blake just paces as Bree looks stunned.

 

Sharper: “The referees have banded together and won’t officiate any of Bree or Blake’s matches! Mr. D is going to honour it!”

 

Knots: “But then tonight? He’s going to find a special referee?!”

 

Sharper: “Sounds like it. For tonight only. After this though….And you heard the boss…there’s an internal investigation. Looks like Blake and Bree’s plans-“

 

Knots: “Prove they did it! They’ve convinced people. They’re good debators!”

 

Sharper: “They may be, but Blake has thrown his money around and I think now it’s coming to bite them big time in the ass!”

 

Mr. D then heads to the back as Aaron Demitra, Steven Hollinsworth and Jackson Kohl follow. Bree just turns back to Blake and can be seen asking him “What now?” Blake just tells her to calm down as we cut away.

We open up to see Spirit Dansby with Sam Raine as the crowd cheers a bit.

 

Spirit: “Big news out in the ring, but also some big news at Apocalypse. Sam Raine defeating Dylan Howell, but Dylan Howell seemed to have been a symbol of something else for Raine, based off what our cameras picked up.”

 

Sam nods.

 

Sam: “Well it was a nice convergence of a number of things. Dylan Howell, clearly he needs help. I don’t even know if he’s here. After all of his tough talk, he’s not even around. But he stole the SCW Adrenaline Championship, thinking it was his, when it wasn’t. And as I’ve gotten older, I can’t stand that attitude. Not just that, he’s running around with Regan Street. We’ve seen that and I’m not even going to hide it. I hate Regan Street. So it was a nice bit of dealing with a few issues that I really wanted to take care of and in the process, I picked up a win. Not the win I’d have liked, but it counts. And to Dylan, you want to come after me, I’ll be ready. To Past, Present, Future…”

 

Sam chuckles a bit.

 

Sam: “I’ll be watching you very closely too.”

 

Sam smiles as the crowd roars and the scene fades out.

COMMERCIALS

We return to Breakdown as we see Mr. D walking backstage and Christina Matsui walks over to him.

 

Christina: “Wait…you knew?”

 

Mr. D: “They came to me earlier. I needed to act.”

 

Christina: “So what am I telling the board?”

 

Mr. D: “Exactly what happened.”

 

Christina: “And tonight? Do you even have a plan?”

 

Mr. D: “I have some idea of what I’m going to do. Just you take care of that. I’ll focus on finding a special referee for the US Title match tonight.”

 

Mr. D then walks off as Christina looks at Mr. D. She then turns and walks in the opposite direction as we cut to another part of the backstage area.

We then see Bree Lancaster and Blake Mason walking backstage.

 

Bree: “Can they do that? Can they?”

 

Blake: “We’ll figure it out. Nothing I can’t fix-“

 

We then hear someone laughing. Bree turns and Blake does too. We then see Tina Valentine standing off to the side.

 

Bree: “The hell is your problem? You’re not even the Adrenaline Champion after getting the biggest win of your career.”

 

Tina stops and looks at them.

 

Tina: “Yeah…but looks like you two don’t even have a career. Can’t think of a better reason to celebrate. Makes my loss just evaporate away from my mind.”

 

Tina laughs again and Bree lunges towards her, but Blake stops Bree as Bree takes a deep breath and we cut away.

Stacy Kissinger vs. Lexi von Aaron

Television Championship Eliminator

 

“Torture” by Picture Me Broken begins to play as the lights in the arena go black and the entrance is surrounded in a dark blue black light. The camera moves to the entrance way where "Lexi Von Aaron" appears on screen and then it shatters into fragments as glass. As the shards fly away we see the words "Lost Lexxxi" in its place. Then we see imagery of Lexi in the rain with smudged make up being pelted by water with a cold as ice expression on her face. The camera lowers and we See Lost Lexxxi standing in the entrance with a pissed off expression on her face. She is wearing A Black fur coat, a Black halter top that has "#GetLost" written in white on it. Velvet short shorts that are half black and Half Red With #GodsBitch Written on the ass. She is also wearing black fishnet stockings with one red boot and one black with GET written in red on the black and LOST on the black. She walks to the ring looking like absolutely miserable.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is the Television Championship Eliminator Contest for this evening. The winner will move on to challenge the Television Champion next week. Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, Lexi Von Aaron!”

She walks to the ring looking completely and utterly miserable to be there. She looks out to the audience and spits in disgust. She then slides under the bottom rope crawling And then bolts to the top rope. Screaming she throws her her head back, her mane of dark brown hair flying in a fluid motion as she jumps off the rope while the camera focus on her. She leans into the camera and licks her lips saying "Hate me."

Sharper: “A very troubled individual, was never the most stable. She has seemingly gotten worse with what I can only describe as an enabler who doesn’t appear present tonight.”

Knots: “They’ve been very reasonable together, clearly and rationally having a dislike for Stacy Kissinger.”

Sharper: “That’s just nonsense.”

The lighting completely turns off inside the arena and only the big screen is lit. It shows a set of deep brown eyes. It slowly zooms out to show the face of Stacy Kissinger. Some people pop in the crowd. The big screen zooms out even further until her entire frame can be seen before if zooms back in real fast to just show Stacy’s face. Her eyes blink and then close and the screen goes to black. "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten begins to play throughout the arena. A small bit of fog rolls out onto the stage and the familiar figure of Stacy Kissinger steps out and through the fog. The stage lights come on so everyone can see her holding a microphone, wearing a yellow and dark slate blue colored robe around her, the colors of Adrenaline Rush. Stepping through the fog she begins to make her descent down the ramp as she looks around the arena a little bit, gently smiling.

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Dallas Texas, Stacy Kissinger!”

Stacy completes her walk to the ring and slides in. She then stands up and goes to the center of the ring and slowly spins herself around so she can view the entire arena. She then removes the robe from around her, pats a patch of each color that is on the robe before placing it on the turnbuckle, revealing that she has on a short frilly black skirt and a red halter top that states "Feel The Rush", in yellow, on the front. She looks back to the stage as one line of pyro goes off while her entrance music is coming to an end. While it does, Stacy turns her attention to the match that she's about to face as she goes to the corner of the ring where her Adrenaline Rush colored robe is. She places her special personalized microphone down in the corner. She then warms up for the match that she's about to take part in. Lexi steps over and immediately charges forward. Stacy catches her with a leg sweep that takes her down face first into the corner. Lexi stands and turns immediately into a dropkick that knocks her back into the corner. The crowd cheers as Stacy steps up and begins chopping away across Lexi’s chest. Stacy lifts Lexi up before propping her up onto the top rope, leading to more cheers as she steps up onto the second turnbuckle. Lexi manages to counter with a rake to the eye before a strong forearm to the jaw that knocks Stacy out of the corner. She turns holding her jaw as Lexi growls while climbing into a standing position in the corner.

Sharper: “Stacy Kissinger right off the get go getting the better of Lexi who appeared too overzealous.”

Knots: “Not anymore, Lexi is about to smite her!”

Lexi leaps off of the top rope and catches Stacy with a dropkick to the back of the head that knocks her to the mat. The crowd boos as Lexi begins to roll out of the ring. She looks around and scoffs at the fans before turning to walk up the ramp.

Sharper: “This again?! Lexi is showing she doesn’t care in the slightest for this match, she’s looking to leave!”

Knots: “It’s her right as God’s bae. Different priorities for different people.”

Sharper: “This is disrespectful to an entire division!”

Lexi ignores the fans as the referee begins to count. (1) Stacy rolls up and looks out, shaking her head now. She rolls out of the ring leading to cheers before we see Chad Evans step out from the back leading to boos. Lexi smiles joyfully. (2) He begins walking down the ramp as he points out toward the ring. Lexi sighs and turns looking frustrated before getting nailed by Stacy. (3) Stacy connects with a second forearm shot before being grabbed by the back of the head, Stacy proceeding to pull her down to the apron before shoving her in under the bottom rope.

Sharper: “Chad appearing now, apparently encouraging Lexi to stay in the match up, Stacy not waiting to continue with this match. She has something to prove to both of them after Lexi’s assault on Kissinger just weeks ago.”

Stacy slides back into the ring and proceeds to grab a hold of Lexi by the back of the head just as she’s going to stand before taking her down with a running bulldog. Stacy rolls Lexi over before connecting with a leg drop. She stands and drops an elbow before turning toward the ropes. She runs across the ring as Lexi starts pulling herself up. Stacy runs across the ring and leaps up going for what may have been a hurricanrana. Lexi ducks and Stacy lands on her feet with her back to Lexi. Lexi spins while throwing an arm up, Stacy turning just in time to get a stiff spinning back fist to the face. Stacy falls to the mat as the crowd oh’s.

Sharper: “Stacy initially taking it hard to Lexi, Lexi coming back in now what a vicious blow across the jaw.”

Knots: “Smiting Adam, call it for what it is!”

Lexi looks down before looking over to Chad. He just smiles while lightly applauding. Lexi raises her arms up cheerfully as Kissinger starts to pull herself up. Remembering she’s in a match Lexi turns and proceeds to connect with a stomp to the back of the head. Stacy rolls over as Lexi leaps up and connects with an elbow to the arm. She stands back up as Stacy rolls over and up onto one knee, Lexi running over and striking the arm repeatedly. Stacy grabs a hold of the rope and the referee tries pulling Lexi back as she grabs Stacy’s arm before wrenching it. She uses one arm to grab Stacy by the back of the head, pulling her forward from the rope before reversing the moment, slamming Stacy’s head hard to the mat. She takes the arm and twists it before leaping up and dropping a knee across the joint. Stacy yells out while rolling over. Lexi turns back to Chad looking eagerly for approval. He ignores her as he makes his way around the ring to the time keeper’s chair. The timekeeper begrudgingly moves as Chad motions for him to get out of the way. Taking his seat Chad smirks as Lexi turns back to Stacy.

Sharper: “Lexi focusing on that arm, likely wishing to end this match with the Sacrament. Assuming she even wishes to win this contest, she has made it abundantly care she doesn’t remotely care for the Television Championship.”

Knots: “I think she’s more focused on taking out Stacy Kissinger, again a noble cause some people would say.”

Sharper: “Some?”

Knots: “Some.”

Lexi pulls Stacy up, pulling her head under her arm before driving her head first into the mat with a single arm DDT. Standing back up Lexi rolls Stacy onto her back with her foot before placing it down over her chest to pin her to the mat.

2!

Stacy kicks out. Lexi takes her boot and runs it across her face. She stomps her arm repeatedly, grabbing her by the hair to pull her up. Stacy counters with a jaw breaker that knocks Lexi back. She stands and connects with several shots, Lexi charging forward with a right fist. Stacy ducks and grabs Lexi by the neck before turning and dropping her with a hangman’s neckbreaker. She rolls over before grabbing Lexi by the legs and catapulting her up into the corner. Lexi once more bounces off of the corner before Stacy runs in and connects with a splash in the corner. Lexi drops down as Stacy takes several steps back. Running forward she connects with a Bronco Buster. The crowd cheers as Lexi screams in horror. She stands up before grabbing Lexi’s arm and pulling her up. Lexi rakes the eyes once more before grabbing her arm and twisting it hard around her back, shoving her into the corner before hooking one arm and throwing her over her back with a half nelson suplex. Stacy hits the mat hard as Lexi goes over and begins to strangle her with both hands. 1! 2! 3! 4! Lexi let’s go realizing the match is about to be stopped. Shaking her head she grabs Stacy and pulls her up, Stacy now countering as she is back on her feet with a sudden exploder suplex.

Sharper: “Stacy on fire here tonight. Lexi has done damage to the arm but Kissinger still able to come back with that suplex out of nowhere to put her back in the driver’s seat.”

Knots: “This can’t happen, she belongs to God!”

Stacy turns and goes over to the corner before climbing up to the top. The crowd cheers as Lexi pulls herself up holding her neck. As she turns, on que Stacy leaps off of the top rope and connects with the High Note. Lexi falls down onto one knee while grasping at the back of her neck as Stacy charges up behind her, hooking both arms. She goes for the Kiss of the Future, Lexi countering as she breaks free from the hurt arm, twisting her other arm behind Stacy’s back. She shoves Stacy toward the corner where the referee is. She is literally used to headbutt the referee in the stomach, causing him to fall over. Stacy stands and looks down awkwardly before turning into Lexi grabbing the arm. She goes to lock on the Sacrament, Stacy trying her best to fight out of it. She manages to spin around Lexi’s side before shoving her from behind into the ropes. Lexi comes back and slides under her legs as Stacy goes for a clothesline. Lexi shoves Stacy forward into the ropes. Just as she’s about to bounce back she is suddenly struck across the back from behind with a chair by Chad. The crowd boos and ohs as Stacy slumps down onto the mat. The referee starts slowly pulling himself up as Lexi locks on the Sacrament.

Sharper: “Chad Evans from behind with that steel chair and now Lexi with the Sacrament! This is just robbery!”

Knots: “If the referee doesn’t see it did it still happen?”

Sharper: “Yes!”

Knots: “Just another example for Bree to run on how the officiating in SCW is lacking!”

Lexi has her back to the referee as she gleefully pulls at the arm. She doesn't see it as Stacy begins to tap with the other arm. The referee slowly gets up while calling for the bell.

Phillips: “The winner of this contest by submission, Lexi Von Aaron!”

The crowd boos as Chad slides into the ring with the chair. Lexi let's go of the move and looks up agitated.

Lexi: “Nooo! I don't want this!”

She looks around agitated as Chad hands her the chair. She looks at it as Chad whispers something to her. She smiles gleefully before hugging him.

Sharper: “Lexi winning this contest despite appearing not wanting the title opportunity. What's this now? Someone come out here before it gets more out of hand.”

Knots: “It's all God's plan!”

Lexi takes the chair and slides Stacy's arm through the middle of it. Smiling wickedly she takes several steps. Stacy tries sliding out of the ring but Chad holds her in place as Lexi runs across the ring and stomps down on the chair, pinching Stacy's arm caught up in it. She begins to scream and roll around before Lexi grabs her and reapplies the Sacrament. Chad grabs Stacys legs and locks on the levity as the referee tries telling them to back off. Chad shoves him away and applies the levity harder. Craig Thomas and Tyler Tucker run out from the back as the boos from the audience switch to cheers. Chad turns and Lexi let's go as they near before both turn and hightail it out of the ring.

Sharper: “Chad and Lexi may have just broken Stacy's arm, thank God Adrenaline Rush coming out here for the save!”

Knots: “I don't think you should thank God for this one!”

Craig is bent down as he's holding Stacy in his arms as Tucker looks out from the apron, daring Chad and Lexi to get back into the ring. Chad just smirks as Lexi spits in their directions while shouting vulgarities. They make their way to the back as Tucker keeps watch.

COMMERCIALS

We then open up with a live shot of the arena as the cameras pan around.

 

Sharper: “Welcome back to Cincinnati. Earlier today, we received a very unique video from…well…The F-Ups.”

 

Knots: “Oh God.”

 

The Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

 

We then open up to see a shot of Imogen Reed sitting next to what appears to be Beard, unmasked, and his face blurred. Imogen is sobbing and Beard turns and leans into her chest.

 

Imogen: “Come on bae. You need to tell the world.”

 

Beard: “Oh yeah…uh…”

 

Beard looks up at the camera, his face blurred out.

 

Beard: “After Apocalypse, we received devastating news. Juice…Juice is dead.”

 

Imogen stops crying immediately and turns to Beard.

 

Imogen: “He’s not dead. I wouldn’t be crying then!”

 

Beard: “Well he sorta is. He broke something or strained something or whatever. Anyway, he’s back on the F’ed up Streets looking for whatever. But in the process, I am going to have to go alone. But when we’re losing matches thanks to Jake Starr and Tommy Valentine being nothing but jealous sons of bitches and not being able to get their asses kicked long enough for my hung ass to come in and kick everyone’s asses all over the world….Well, that’s not good enough!”

 

Beard nods.

 

Beard: “That’s why I’m here…I have to go find my face. Find out who I am and with Imogen by my side, and the hottest sex this side of the Pacific, have no fear You MotherEffers…the greatest F-Up will be back with Gen here making all y’all jealous with her fine ass and we will EFF YOU UP!”

 

Imogen throws her arms in the air. Beard then turns, looking right down Imogen’s chest as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

 

We cut back to ringside.

 

Knots: “Well…uh….okay then. Wait…wasn’t Imogen here earlier? They still sent a tape.”

 

Sharper: “That’s the part you’re focusing on?!”

Amy Chastaine vs. Dante McCaffery

 

Blue and white lights flash in time with the music and the words:

"Tear me down, it won't build you up"

Amy Chastaine comes through the curtain just as the tempo of New Years Day's "Relentless" picks up with the chorus, the lights flashing to keep up. With one hand she flips her hair out of her face, with a confident grin, gazing out at the cheering crowd. She starts down the ramp, greeting fans along the way.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, from New Orleans, Louisiana, she is Amy Chastaine!”

Amy gets in the ring by hopping up on the apron, and stepping between the second and third ropes. She goes to the second rope in the corner near the ring steps, and poses for the fans, one arm in the air, the other on her hip, a smile for the cheering fans. Amy hops down and goes to the opposite corner, and does the same pose. Amy then hops down and awaits the start of her match as the music fades and the light stop flashing.

 

Sharper: “Amy Chastaine and Kennedy Street had a big win at Apocalypse, but Amy Chastaine also got news about who apparently got the Board of Directors to move forward with sending her to rehab. Who acted to send her there?”

 

Knots: “Look, I get that, but it was for the best right? If she was drinking out of control?”

 

Sharper: “Of course, but at the same time, if D is helping, there’s something more to this. He’s got some doubt or something.”

 

The opening to "Out of the Black" hits the PA system, drawing boos from the audience. The lights flash with every sound of the drum. Once the bass hits and the song kicks into gear, Dante McCaffery emerges from the curtains with a long black fur trenchcoat with another black jacket underneath. He immediately mouths off to the crowd and scowls. Dante glares at the crowd and shortly after, Ms Budde and Jack Parker walk out, sneering at the crowd. Jack oversees the crowd. Dante looks around and starts walking down to the ring.

Phillips: “Her opponent, accompanied to the ring by Ms. Budde and Jack Parker, from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, he is Dante McCaffery!”

Dante walks down to the ring, giving the fans the "shoo" gesture repeatedly. Budde and Parker follow suit as Dante soon pauses and stares at the audience to his right for a moment. He looks around at the crowd and he says a few things. He then walks close to the camera and then shoves down the camera man. He looks at Budde and Parker before then walking up the steel steps before turning around, giving the crowd the chance to boo him some more. Dante soon enters the ring and shortly. He walks to the corner and ascends up the turnbuckle. The crowd boos as McCaffery looks around the crowd, mouthing off the crowd with venom. Dante soon jumps off and Budde is there on the apron to take off both of his jackets. Dante leans against the corner with a scowl on his face as Parker is on the outside, saying a few words to him.

 

Sharper: “And we saw Jack Parker and another man attacking Thirteen at Apocalypse. Dante McCaffery not successful in the match, but afterwards, sending a message. And now, they are out here with Amy right now.”

 

Knots: “Looks like there’s not going to be any hiding it tonight.”

 

Amy looks around as Budde and Parker look in. Dante looks at Amy and the bell sounds. The two start to circle and Amy watches Dante and Amy lunges and Dante goes low with a shot to the ribs. Amy winces and Dante turns and clubs her in the back. He then clubs her again and then turns and throws her into the corner. Dante kicks her in the ribs and then again and again. He then grabs her and whips her across the ring. Amy hits the corner and bounces out and Dante lifts her up and back drops her down. She starts to stir and Dante forces her down for the pin.

Sharper: “Dropkick takes down Dante. Amy knocks him down!”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but stay away from the ropes with Budde and Parker and who the hell else may be around.”

 

Dante rolls to the ropes and Amy reluctantly goes over. She kicks him in the ribs and pulls him away before hitting a snapmare. She then jumps up and hits an elbow drop to the chest. She goes for the pin.

Dante kicks out. We then see Kennedy Street walking out from the back as the crowd roars. Amy starts to get up and Dante rolls over and slowly pulls him up and Amy elbows him in the back of the head and then again before running into the ropes. She stops at the ropes as Budde moves towards her. She then turns and runs at Dante and Dante lifts her up and hits a flapjack. Amy rolls over, holding her chest in pain. She slowly rolls to the ropes. Kennedy then reaches the ring and starts to pound on the mat.

 

Knots: “Oh Kennie is here! This is going to help her out!”

 

Sharper: “Kennedy Street and Amy Chastaine, good friends, showing support.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but that’s if Dante doesn’t just take her out here.”

The official turns and tells her to stay back too. Amy starts to get up and she turns to the ring and Dante then runs over and hits a baseball slide. Amy falls back. The crowd boos. Dante rolls to the floor.

 

Sharper: “Kennedy, Budde and Parker all on the floor. The referee needing to maintain order. Not even starting to count yet.”

 

Knots: “And then Dante from behind with the baseball slide.”

 

Dante grabs Amy and pulls her up and rolls her into the ring. Dante rolls in after and Amy starts to get up and Dante runs over and hits a running knee lift. Amy falls back and Dante goes for the pin.

Dante gets his shoulder up. Amy rolls off.

 

Sharper: “Nearfall! Dante gets the shoulder up.”

 

Knots: “Drives Dante into the mat. Not enough though and Budde and Parker looking on as Kennedy is on the other end.”

 

Amy starts to get up and Dante stirs as Amy grabs him. She then elbows him in the back of the head and then again before jumping up and hitting a facebuster. Dante rolls over and Amy turns and exits to the apron. She then climbs up to the top rope. We then see Parker walking around the ring. Kennedy warns Amy as Amy watches him before then suddenly diving off with a crossbody off the top rope and onto Parker. The crowd roars. Kennedy heads around as Amy then gets up. Budde walks around and Amy turns and rolls back into the ring. She turns to Dante who rolls her up with a small package.

Sharper: “Budde coming in-“

 

Knots: “Here comes Kennedy! You’re not going to touch her Amy!’

 

Kennedy then gets up and forearms Budde in the jaw and then then again and she turns and runs her into the corner. Kennedy moves over and kicks her in the ribs and then again before Dante runs over and nails her in the back of the head. He then grabs her and throws her back with a mat slam. Dante then backs off and walks around as Jack Parker slowly rolls into the ring. Amy starts to stirs and Dante stomps her in the face and then again and again. The crowd boos before we then see Thirteen running out from the back. He runs down to the ring and slides in. Jack quickly rolls back out as Budde gets a kick in on Kennedy as Dante rolls to the floor. Budde exits too as Thirteen gets up and storms over to the ropes. He then spins around and looks around.

 

Sharper: “Thirteen coming out to help Kennedy and Amy!”

 

Knots: “Coming out because of what Dante did at Apocalypse too!”

 

Sharper: “Thirteen chasing them off, but Dante, Budde and Parker…making sure they got some shots in for sure.”

 

Amy winces and stirs as Kennedy holds her ribs. She takes a moment as she is helped up by Thirteen. Thirteen turns back and goes over and helps Amy up. Dante turns and looks back as he starts to head to the ring. Budde and Parker just walk to the back as the crowd continues to look on as we cut backstage.

We see Alistaire Allocco doing squats backstage. Cassidy Carter walks up to him and smacks him in the back of the head. He turns. Ace motions off.

 

Sharper: “Well next, we’re going to see Alistaire Allocco in action. He already has gotten a great deal of notoriety, but tonight, he makes his debut. SCW Breakdown returns, after this!”

 

The scene then fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We open up backstage to see Jessica Winters walking around the outside area of the building. She turns to the cameraman.

 

Jessica: “Are we sure he’s out here?”

 

Voice: “Yeah. That’s what the log says.”

 

Jessica sighs and looks around before we hear the sound of a fire and see smoke in the middle of what appear to be a circle of cars. Jessica then walks over towards it, walking between two cars before stopping as she turns back.

 

Jessica: “Oh dear.”

 

Giovanni Aries is sitting cross-legged next to a full campfire, wearing nothing at all and only the Adrenaline Championship covering him up. Sam is next to him, but notably clothed.

 

Aries: “Do not worry…the Wonderland is a place of peace.”

 

Jessica: “And apparently no clothes.”

 

Aries: “I have to make sure that the area is safe from the Lizard King. That’s why I couldn’t go indoors. Not enough wide spaces with the distance necessary for the protective barrier.”

 

Jessica: “Uh…okay….”

 

Aries: “Were you sent by him…Wait…if you were, you couldn’t get this close. I have already taken one of his riches, the Adrenaline Championship and I will make sure that it stays with me. The Lizard King will come out and I will slay him…it’s only a matter of time.”

 

Aries then chuckles before the laugh starts to get deeper and deeper. Jessica just looks around.

 

Jessica: “Uh…thanks…we’ll be going.”

 

Aries stops on a dime.

 

Aries: “Are you sure you don’t want to join the Wonderland?”

 

Jessica: “Yes…completely.”

 

Jessica backs up.

 

Aries: “Your loss.”

 

Aries then returns to his meditation as we cut to the ring.

Alistaire Allocco’s debut

 

We open up in the ring to see an African American wrestler wearing red and blue tights in the ring.

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for onefall with a fifteen minute time limit. First, in the ring, from Toledo, Ohio, he is Cedric Coleman!”

 

Coleman lifts his arms as the crowd cheers a bit.

 

Sharper: “Cedric Coleman is going to be a part of history. We’ll see how Alistaire Allocco does in his debut here.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but he’s got Ace Marshall with him, so there’s a big ass anchor attached to him. Coleman could make a stand here. Make waves!”

 

A timer begins to run on the screen, counting down from five to one. A momentarily pause in darkness as “Fire It Up” by Thousand Foot Krutch begins to play, as the song begins to pick up into full swing, a quick line of pyrotechnics goes off, running down across the length of the stage. Through the smoke, out pops Alistaire Allocco, with both arms raised as if in presumptive victory. He marches down the ramp with his arms still held high. We then see Ace Marshall, holding the SCW World Championship, with Cassidy Carter, walking out. They run forward and quickly stop him. Cassidy smacks his arms down. Alistaire turns to them and tells them that he’s got it before turning back to the ring.

 

Phillips: “And his opponent, accompanied by Ace Marshall and Cassidy Carter, he is from Salt Lake City, Utah, he is Alistaire Allocco!”

 

Alistaire straight towards the bottom of the ring steps. There he pauses, glancing back at Ace and Cassidy. He rotates his torso a few times, swinging his shoulders, before he runs up the steps and across the ring apron. Ace just looks at him stunned before turning to Cassidy who whispers to him. Allocco steps inside, lifting a finger into the air, pointing to the sky as he stands there in the middle of the ring. His music dies as he continues to stand front and center.

 

Knots: “What in the blue hell is he doing with Ace Marshall?”

 

Sharper: “A bit of a different approach. He’s doing exercises-“

 

Knots: “Ace only exercises if it involves sex!”

 

Sharper: “He is the son of Adam Allocco, former SCW World Tag Team Champion. He has some significant collegiate background. Having gone to Brigham Young. He however was expelled, ending what seemed like a promising career. And he’s been trained by Hiro Tanaka, another former World Tag Team Champion. So his background is legitimate.”

 

Knots: “So why does he see anything in Ace?!”

 

Allocco then turns and looks at Coleman. Coleman hops up and down, getting ready as Allocco turns and stretches out using the ropes. The bell sounds. Allocco then spins out and extends his arm.

 

Ace: “Good call! Lull him in!”

 

Allocco just shakes his head as Coleman looks at him and asks to legitimately shake his hand. Coleman slowly leans in and obliges. Allocco nods and they shake hands before they circle.

 

Cassidy: “What the hell was that?!”

 

Allocco moves in and Coleman lunges. They lock up in a collar and elbow tie-up and push back on one another. Allocco quickly turns into a side headlock. He pulls back. He then drops down and around, grabbing the arm and moving into a hammerlock. Coleman reaches down and then up and Allocco shakes him off before lifting him up by the arm. Coleman winces and Allocco turns and trips up the leg and drops him down. He then pushes up on the arm. Coleman winces as Allocco lifts up. He then tells the official to ask him. The referee checks and Coleman winces and shakes his head no.

 

Cassidy: “Kidney shots! Kidney shots!”

 

Allocco ignores Cassidy as he then pulls up and Coleman gets his knees under him. He then starts to struggle before ducking under and around and using his agility to end up on his feet. He flips forward and kicks Allocco in the face. Allocco falls back and rolls to the corner. Coleman gets up, shaking out his arm.

 

Sharper: “Some great catch-as-catch-can wrestling by Allocco, regardless of what Cassidy and Ace want to add.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. I didn’t think an Allocco could do that.”

 

Coleman walks around and Allocco moves towards him. He goes for the arm and Coleman drops down with a leg trip. He runs into the ropes. He bounces off. Alistaire rolls towards him. Coleman cartwheels out of it, using only one arm to do so. Alistaire gets up and Coleman hits a dropkick. He goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Alistaire Allocco kicks out. Both get up and Coleman forearms Allocco in the jaw. He then nails him again and whips him into the corner. Coleman runs across and Allocco gets an elbow up. He then runs out and hits a dropkick. Coleman gets up and turns and Allocco grabs him and hooks him up and hits a vertical suplex. He swivels his hips and starts to pull Coleman up before hitting a front suplex. He rolls him over for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Coleman kicks out and immediately Allocco goes for the side headlock. He holds on as Coleman starts to get his legs under him.

 

Ace: “Rake the eyes!”

 

Cassidy: “Go low! May as well make him feel alive!”

 

Ace turns to Cassidy as they keep yelling from ringside as Allocco glances back. This gives Coleman then opportunity to lift him up by lifting up for a back suplex but letting him flip through. Allocco ends up on his knees and Coleman hits a straight kick, knocking Allocco back. He falls to the ropes.

 

Sharper: “Allocco getting a bit distracted by Ace and Cassidy here as he’s shown some good skill.”

 

Knots: “Skill or not, Coleman just took his head off and skill doesn’t stop that!”

 

Sharper: “And look at Cassidy! Look at what she’s doing!”

 

Cassidy reaches into her top and pulls out what appears to be a pair of brass knuckles. She places them on Allocco’s hand. Allocco turns and looks and throws them away.

 

Allocco: “I don’t need those. I’ll beat him with what God gave me!”

 

Cassidy: “And God, the non-existent asshole, gave me!”

 

Ace: “She’s right!”

 

Allocco then turns and Coleman jumps up and hits a hurricanrana into a pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Allocco kicks out. He turns and Coleman gets up and grabs him and lifts him up and nails him with a forearm and whips him into the ropes. Allocco bounces off and Coleman jumps up and goes for a spinning kick to the head, but Allocco ducks. He stops and turns and Coleman turns and Allocco hooks him up and hits an overhead exploder suplex. Coleman turns around and Allocco hooks him up and hits an exploder suplex. Coleman rolls over and winces as Allocco grabs him a third time and hits a third exploder suplex.

 

Sharper: “Another exploder! And Allocco tossing Coleman all around that ring!”

 

Knots: “Jesus! Won’t even let him get up!”

 

Cassidy looks on as the camera cuts to them.

 

Cassidy: “Sure you don’t want the knucks?! It’s faster!”

 

Ace: “Good life skill. Don’t know when you’ll want someone to shut up!”

 

Cassidy glares at Ace. Ace just shrugs.

 

Ace: “Not you!”

 

The camera cuts back to the ring as Coleman starts to pull himself up but Allocco turns and hits the Sins of the Father. The crowd ohs and Coleman falls to the mat. Allocco then turns and walks over to the legs of Coleman. He then lifts them up. The crowd buzzes a bit as Allocco starts to turn him over, locking in the Glorious Revolution. The crowd looks on as Coleman yells in pain. He starts to tap out after a few moments and Allocco keeps the hold on exactly until he hears the bell sounds. He lets go and drops him. Ace hops onto the apron. Allocco has his arm raised. He applauds a bit as Cassidy walks over to Jason Phillips and is handed a microphone. Cassidy walks up the steel steps as Allocco has his arm raised. Ace then enters the ring as Cassidy enters too. She hands the microphone to Ace as Ace looks around. Allocco turns over to Ace and Cassidy.

 

Ace: “Alistaire, not bad, not bad, but come on man. The openings…we could’ve tripped him up. You could’ve used the knuckles. I get it, this zebra looking man would’ve disqualified you. But you could’ve thrown it at him, used it as a distraction…you nearly got your ass kicked just because you wanted to play it safe. And I get it…takes a lot of practice to do what we do.”

 

Alistaire stops Ace. He then moves the microphone to his mouth.

 

Alistaire: “Ace…I’m not going to cheat. Every time I step in this ring, I know I can beat whoever SCW puts in front of me. I came to you because I figured you could take me to the next level. Skip a few steps. Why pay my dues when I can be tying up Selena Frost or Jake Starr in knots in here at will.”

 

The crowd boos some. Ace takes the microphone back.

 

Ace: “Ballsy aren’t you.”

 

Alistaire: “It’s not. It’s know what I’m capable of. If I have a plan, I get it done, I win. I will win against everyone. And you can help me get those shots. You can make sure I can show that MY way of doing things is the right way. Just like you showed the world YOUR way of doing things can lead to success too. Two sides of the same coin.”

 

Ace looks a bit confused and looks around.

 

Ace: “Are you sure you’re Adam’s kid?”

 

Alistaire nods. Ace starts to laugh.

 

Ace: “So cute you think you can run around and just get the job done. Almost sounds as delusional as Kelcey Wallace and Selena Frost. Come on kid. Hit the showers. Cassidy is going to break down the match and you’re going to listen to her.”

 

Alistaire turns to Cassidy. Cassidy mockingly waves, while smiling widely. Alistaire just turns and exits the ring. “Fire It Up” starts to play as Alistaire steps down to the floor. Ace then turns and exits as does Cassidy. They start to head to the back. Alistaire turns back to Ace as they meet up on the rampway. Alistaire can be seen already disputing.

 

Alistaire: “Look! I think I did fine in there. I won. Just because I turned down the cheating…I didn’t need it against him! I was better than him.”

 

Ace: “Just keep going.”

 

Cassidy: “Jesus. You came to us. If we say you suck, you suck. Tough love. Don’t make me break out the whip.”

 

Ace: “She’s serious.”

 

Alistaire walks back a few steps.

 

Alistaire: “And you’re a World Champion…I….I don’t understand it. I-“

 

Ace: “See…need us to help you out. Come on. Chop-chop.”

 

Cassidy: “Can I use the whip?”

 

Sharper: “These two are a piece of work. Alistaire, a bit arrogant, but-“

 

Knots: “We have company!”

 

Alistaire, Ace and Cassidy head up the rampway a bit before we hear the crowd cheers. We then see Selena Frost standing at the top of the stage. The crowd roars seeing her. Alistaire turns to Selena as Ace and Cassidy stop too. Selena just looks at the three of them as the crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Selena Frost, we heard from her earlier. She’s not pleased with Ace’s comments!”

 

Ace then looks at Selena and looks at the World Championship. He then shrugs before suddenly shoving Alistaire forward. Alistaire stumbles forward and stops before turning back to Ace and Cassidy who hop off the ramp to the floor. They walk off with Ace giving Alistaire the thumbs up. Cassidy does too. They head off as Selena watches them leave. Alistaire then turns and puts his hands up before extending his arm. Selena looks at it. Alistaire motions that he won’t attack her before extending his arm again. Selena then looks at his arm before then suddenly nailing him with the Glass Shard. Allocco makes no attempt to defend himself. He just lands on the rampway as the crowd roars. Selena looks at Alistaire before turning and looking at Ace and Cassidy as then run around the stage and walk through the curtain.

 

Sharper: “Glass Shard!”

 

Knots: “Alistaire just met the Snow Queen. She didn’t want a handshake.”

 

Sharper: “He came out at Apocalypse and in the chaos, Selena Frost lost the title, in some way thanks to Alistaire. But Selena wanted Ace and Cassidy and they just fed up Allocco on his first official night in SCW!”

 

Knots: “But…he just wanted a handshake!”

 

Selena turns and backs up and turns and walks to the back as the crowd can be heard cheering for Selena as Alistaire Allocco blinks, while out of it on the rampway. We then cut away.

We open up backstage to see Amy Chastaine walking through the backstage area. She still gingerly holding her arm from earlier before stopping herself. She then takes a deep breath. She then starts to walk down one hallway before stopping and looking at one door. The camera turns showing “Bree Lancaster and Blake Mason.” The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Oh my God…”

 

Amy then knocks on the door hard. She just looks at the door for a few moments. The door opens and Blake Mason opens the door.

 

Blake: “Amy-“

 

Amy: “I am going to ask you one question. Why?”

 

Blake: “I don’t know what you are talking about?”

 

Amy: “You are the reason I went to rehab.”

 

Blake :”Whoa…wait…you’re angry about that. It’s to help.”

 

Amy: “Given that we were not speaking at the time when what the Board said was the issue occurred. Something is not adding up.”

 

Bree can be heard.

 

Bree: “Who is it Blake?”

 

Bree walks over.

 

Bree: “Oh, Amy…don’t tell me. You had another drink. Come on in. We’re here for you.“

 

Amy then just stops.

 

Amy: “She was in on it too.”

 

Blake: “Look, we care about you. I was doing some digging and we happened to come about some information that you were not just off the wagon, but several miles down the road from where-“

 

Amy: “So you took me away from my family, you tarnish my reputation with a Board that clearly does want me…you cost me money and an-“

 

Amy then stops.

 

Amy: “Bree even took my spot.”

 

Bree: “Wait, wait-“

 

Blake: “Look, it was a private investigator-“

 

Amy: “You were spying on me? All of this talk about rebuilding friendships? And you not only spied on me but used it to help yourselves?!”

 

Blake: “We did it to help you. People in your condition need people to help them to make sure they don’t go down the same steps-“

 

Bree: “Look, we did it because we care. Wyatt…Kara…they’re great, but they aren’t going to make the tough calls.

 

Amy’s eyes narrow, clearly annoyed by that comment.

 

Bree: “It’s not our fault the Board then rewarded us for being good people-“

 

Amy: “Rewarded?”

 

Amy stops herself.

 

Amy: “You used to be a good person, Bree…and you don’t know a damn thing about what Wyatt and Kara have done for me.”

 

Blake: “This is getting out of hand. I’m going to call someone. They can help you out. This is serious-“

 

Bree steps out and wraps her arm around Amy. Amy pulls away.

 

Bree: “Amy…please-“

 

Amy: “You two don’t care about me. You care about yourselves. You needed the cred with the board with a few who already have it out for me. That’s fine…There’s no coming back from this. I thought you actually hadn’t changed…I thought there was hope. Last time I’ll be wrong.”

 

Amy then steps back and walks off as Bree and Blake shake their head.

 

Blake: “Amy!”

 

Bree then softly responds.

 

Bree: “She needs a lot of help.”

 

Blake: “We’ll worry about it after. We have to worry about what BS D will have later and depending on that, we may have some other options.”

 

Blake looks on as they step back inside and close the door as the scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

We cut backstage as we see Alistaire Allocco, holding his face as he staggers into the locker room area. He then looks around. He then see Ace Marshall and Cassidy Carter off in one corner. They just smirk.

 

Allocco: “What was that? I-“

 

Cassidy: “Called lesson one. Selena Frost is a crazy bitch.”

 

Ace: “And well, you said you could take her so we figured we’d let you try.”

 

Allocco: “You left me out there to dry!”

 

Ace: “And you nearly cost me the World Title. Are we even?”

 

Cassidy: “He nearly cost me a lot of shoes. Hell no we’re not even! Go get in the shower. We’re training!”

 

Allocco: “This is highly irregular-“

 

Cassidy: “SHOWER!”

 

Allocco sighs. He shakes his head and walks off camera.

 

Ace: “I like having a student.”

 

Cassidy: “Me too. I hope Adam likes how we train his boy.”

 

Ace: “I’m not even sure he knows Alistaire is alive. At least Selena knows of him.”

 

Cassidy smirks as we cut away.

We cut to the Past, Present, Future locker room to see Regan Street shaking her head.

 

Hudson: “This is getting stupid. Blake and Bree pissing off all of the referees. They’re now just hurting themselves.”

 

Regan: “Whatever. I’m happy to give him a match. Blake at least is cut from the same cloth. Good people-“

 

Sienna just smiles unimpressed. Regan notices it.

 

Regan: “Yeah, yeah, I know you don’t care for Bree, Sienna.”

 

Sienna: “Then you know I’m not getting involved in this tonight. I may do something Bree wouldn’t like.”

 

Regan: “Yeah, yeah. Easy kitty.”

 

Sienna: “That’s what we should say to you sometimes.”

 

Hudson: “Alright, relax. Can’t be all that bad. Knocked Ravyn and CHBK around earlier.”

 

Sienna: “That’s going to be my job in a few weeks.”

 

Regan: “Okay, okay…Miks…you and I will go out later.”

 

Mikaela nods.

 

Regan: “Sienna…yeah.”

 

Sienna smiles as the Truelove Twins can be seen also behind her, along with Laura.

 

Regan: “Josh…just watch. Something is off on this.”

 

Josh: “Of course.”

 

Regan turns to Mikaela.

 

Regan: “Shall we.”

 

Regan then grabs the SCW United States Championship. Mikaela smiles as they head off.

We then open up to see Mr. D talking to Shaun Cruze backstage.

 

Cruze: “Look I know you’re busy-“

 

Mr. D: “It’s fine. I’ve taken care of what I had to. It’s why I made my way here. We don’t know what’s going on with Taylor.”

 

Cruze: “Well about that-“

 

Mr. D: “She’s still demanding the match. I wanted her here to negotiate. We’re going to try it again. I’m booking the match for Under Attack.”

 

Cruze sighs. Mr. D looks at him.

 

Mr. D: “She wants to humiliate you in the ring now. She wants to prove she has outdone you on everything. She’s not even hiding it anymore.”

 

Cruze: “I figured.”

 

Mr. D: “Shaun…I heard your comments earlier. You want this to go away, to move on, you need to give her that. You know Taylor even better than I do. She won’t stop until she gets what she wants. But at the same time, I want this over. This is a dark cloud over everything where two wrongs damn sure don’t make a right. This is her one shot. Whatever happens…it happens.”

 

Cruze: “I just want to get back to the Tag Titles and just do some good…”

 

Mr. D: “I know. But to do that, you need to get past this. I agreed to the match. I’m honouring my word.”

 

Mr. D then starts to walk off before stopping.

 

Mr. D: “Oh…and by the way, next week on Breakdown, I’m giving Kelcey Wallace her match against you.”

 

Cruze pauses for a moment and smiles a bit. Mr. D then turns and walks off. Cruze just nods.

“Immortals” starts to play as we then see the Breakdown logo come up on the screen. We see a shot of Blake Mason and then a shot of Regan Street.

 

Sharper: “Huge match for next week. Shaun Cruze will face Kelcey Wallace. But next, Blake Mason challenges Regan Street for the US Title.”

 

Knots: “Mr. D says he’s got a ref.”

 

Sharper: “So it’s going to happen. That’s next?!”

COMMERCIALS

Blake Mason vs. Regan Street

SCW United States Championship

 

“When Money Comes, When Money Comes”

The lights go out as “G.O.A.T.” by CFO$ featuring Will Roush starts to play. The crowd boos. A spotlight shines down on the stage as we see Blake Mason walk out from the back wearing a bejewelled robe. He looks around, smiling as he looks around, posing on the top of the stage. Bree Lancaster then walks out from the back.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall for TV time remaining and is for the SCW United States Championship! First, on his way to the ring, accompanied by Bree Lancaster, he is from Boston, Massachusetts, he is Blake Mason!”

Blake Mason walks hand in hand with Bree Lancaster down to the ring. They reach the ringsteps. Blake holds Bree’s hand as she walks up the steps. She then enters the ring. Blake Mason walks up the steel steps and steps into the ring. He looks around and smiles before walking to the middle of the ring and undoing his robe. Bree walks over and slides the robe off. Blake just smiles. He takes it off and walks over to the corner and holds it over his head. He just smiles before hopping down. Bree steps out of the ring as Blake turns to the entrance way.

 

Sharper: “You notice no official yet. We don’t know exactly who Mr. D has found to act as the special guest referee in this match.”

 

Knots: “Well it’s got to be someone. He said this match will take place! But who?! And this was done with some plan in mind for Mr. D. So he wants to see this happen!”

 

Sharper: “Blake Mason wants this match. He said it earlier today on Twitter. This is a measuring stick for him. He’s not had the success he’s wanted in terms of titles. Notoriety yes, but not in terms of the record books.”

 

Knots: “And just think, he’s dealing with the referee situation. He’s dealing with Amy…”

 

The arena goes dark. The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is seen with a roar. Fireworks blast off the entrance as “Who's Next” by Porcelain Black plays throughout the arena. Regan Street, holding the SCW United States Championship, walks out in her cat suit and ensemble with her younger sister, Mikaela behind her. She stands at the entrance way looking out into the crowd as they shower her with boos and cat calls no pun intended. Regan turns to Mikaela, they both nod before she looks around at the crowd, rolls her eyes and then smirks walking to the ring determined for her next match and starts to make her way down to the ring followed by Mikaela.

 

Phillips: “And his opponent, she is accompanied by Mikaela Street. She is the reigning and defending SCW United States Champion, the Hellcat, Regan Street!”

 

Regan starts to jaw jack to the crowd, sometimes yelling obscenities or simply ignoring them, staying fully focused on her match. Mikaela laughs. Regan Street gets to the apron and hops up to the ring; she flips over the ropes back first to the boos and some cheers from the fans, Mikaela slides after her. Once inside the ring Regan goes to the corner, climbing it and posing in her own confident way, holding up the SCW United States Championship, as Mikaela claps before dropping down and walking to the middle of the ring. She takes off her entrance attire and nods to her sister, handing her the gear and she makes her way to the corner while the Hellcat stands waiting to start her fight, holding the SCW United States Championship. She walks around the ring and even talks to Blake a bit. Blake just shrugs.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street out and ready to fight, but no official.”

 

Knots: “Still waiting. Maybe D doesn’t have one!”

 

Sharper: “That would mean this match cannot be sanctioned and Blake Mason would lose his US Title match by definition.”

 

Regan then turns around and looks at Jason Phillips. Blake then walks past Regan and demands the microphone. Jason Phillips however holds his hand up. Blake just snaps at him.

 

Knots: “Give him the microphone Knots!”

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, I am receiving word from our timekeeper that Mr. D has added an additional stipulation to this United States Championship match in order to allow it to be sanctioned and that is that should either Regan Street or Blake Mason, or their managers, Mikaela Street and Bree Lancaster, touch either of the officials, they will automatically forfeit the match and the SCW United States Championship!”

 

Blake just throws his arms up. Regan just looks around.

 

Regan: “Who is it?”

 

Phillips: “Please now welcome your officials for this match…First…”

 

The crowd buzzes.

 

Sharper: “Either? That sounds like there is more than one!”

 

Knots: “Who is it then?”

 

A few more moments pass.

 

“This is How a Heart Breaks”

 

The crowd cheers as “This is How a Heart Breaks” by Rob Thomas plays throughout the arena. We then see CHBK walks out from the back, wearing a referee’s shirt. The crowd cheers some more as Blake Mason just paces, clearly unimpressed as Regan Street just snaps at Jason Phillips. Phillips backs up. Regan turns back and looks at CHBK as Mikaela glares at him too as CHBK walks down to the ring.

 

Sharper: “Oh boy…I think Mr. D found an official he can trust to have some fun here.”

 

Knots: “Have some fun…”

 

Sharper: “He’s been an official before. He’s refereed matches before!”

 

Knots: “But Regan hates him! And Blake probably does too!”

 

CHBK walks down to the ring and walks up the steel steps and along the apron. He steps into the ring. Regan walks right up to him and starts to get in his face. CHBK just touches his chin as Regan glares at him. CHBK walks around the ring as Blake takes his moment to chirp at CHBK as CHBK just smirks and leans against the far corner.

 

Phillips: “And the special outside of the ring guest enforcer…”

 

Knots: “Guest enforcer?!”

 

CHBK waits as Regan and Blake both turn to the entrance way and “Groupie” starts to play throughout the arena. The crowd cheers some more as Bree now looks at the entrance way with anger as Blake shakes his head. Regan Street throws her arms in the air. She then walks paces as Syren walks out from the back. She looks around and smiles as she looks down at Regan. Regan and her lock eyes as Syren, dressed in a referee’s shirt as well, walks down to the ring. She walks down to the ring and to the end of the ramp before then looking over at Bree and then to Mikaela. Before her music even ends, she points to Bree and then points to Mikaela before motioning that both need to leave the ringside area. The crowd cheers. Syren then giggles a bit to herself as CHBK smirks. Regan and Blake both just stew in the ring.

 

Sharper: “Syren already starting to throw her weight around. She just told Mikaela and Bree to leave!”

 

Knots: “Come on! This isn’t right!”

 

Sharper: “And just think…if Blake and Bree hadn’t done such a great job alienating all of the SCW referees!”

 

Bree looks at Syren and then storms over to her. CHBK then meanwhile calls for the bell. The bell sounds as Bree storms over to Syren and Syren just smiles as Bree looks at her. The crowd roars. Syren just looks right at her before Blake tells her to stop. Blake yells over the top rope and tells Bree to leave. Bree looks at him before turning back to Syren.

 

Bree: “You’re lucky. I still owe you a singles match where I show you I’m better than you.”

 

Syren just nods, moving her hand to simulate Bree’s gabbing. Mikaela just looks at CHBK before turning and walking around the ring. She then turns to Regan. Regan waves her off as Mikaela starts to head to the back and her and Bree actually leave up the rampway together. Bree glances back as Syren giggles again. She then walks around the ring.

 

Sharper: “CHBK calling for the bell in that to ensure that there was no doubt. Bree strikes Syren, this was over.”

 

Knots: “And Mikaela even looked at Regan…Regan’s anger issues have been a huge issue. This is just going to cause both to need to be on their best. This isn’t fair at all!”

 

Regan then turns and sees Blake watching Bree and Regan looks at CHBK. CHBK looks at her before Regan runs at Blake and rolls him up with a school boy.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Blake kicks out as CHBK does a standard count. Regan looks out and then turns to Blake. Blake glances back. Regan points to the US Championship that’s in her corner. Blake then gets up and goes for a hard right. Regan ducks and spins around. Blake turns and Regan kicks him in the ribs. She nails him with a hard right and then another. She turns and goes to whip him across into the ropes, but Blake spins through and sends her in. Regan bounces off and jumps up and nails him with a Lou Thesz press. She nails him with a couple of hard rights before getting up. She turns and looks at CHBK as Syren walks around the ring. Regan then turns as Blake stirs and Regan grabs him and runs him into the corner, face first.

 

Sharper: “Regan Street is trying to treat this like a normal match. Her US Title is on the line and after how long it took for her to get it, she’s not going to just let it go away.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, but these two are friends. Come on…honour among you guys?”

 

Sharper: “Not with a title on the line! Remember a few months ago at Fatal Fortunes. That’s what happens when you have an ego!”

 

Blake turns and Regan kicks him in the ribs and then again. She goes to whip him across the ring. Blake spins through and sends her in hard. She goes in chest first and Blake runs after her and nails her with a running body splash. Regan falls forward and slowly turns as Blake turns her around. Blake then looks at her and nails her with a back elbow. He nails her with another elbow and then another. He continues as CHBK counts.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

4!

 

Blake goes to stop, but CHBK grabs him and pulls him back and throws him down. Blake rolls over as the crowd roars. Blake gets up and immediately threatens to hit him. CHBK just snaps at him to do so.

 

CHBK: “Come on! What? Don’t like it when they can fight back?”

 

Blake just glares at CHBK before turning and moving back to Regan. Regan then rakes his eyes. Blake staggers back and CHBK turns and gets in between them. Regan tries to get past CHBK, but CHBK stops her.

 

CHBK: “Hey! Don’t rake his eyes.”

Blake rolls over and stirs and Regan jumps up and hits a bulldog.

 

Sharper: “Regan counters. Dropkick and then the bulldog. US title on the line here in Cincinnati. A unique situation with CHBK as the referee and Syren on the floor as the special guest enforcer!”

 

Knots: “All because Blake and Bree called the referees on their mistakes!”

 

Sharper: “Yes, their arrogance and their unnecessary tirades because they can’t control themselves had consequences!”

Sharper: “Oh my! A mule kick! Right deep on Blake!’

 

Knots: “That would’ve been for CHBK. He was even goading her to hit him!”

 

Sharper: “And she was looking right at him. Blake just happened to be the recipient out of necessity!”

 

Regan turns to Blake and can be seen saying sorry before pushing Blake down and going for the pin.

Blake gets his shoulder up. Regan turns as we see Josh Hudson starting to walk down from the back. The crowd boos seeing him and Josh Hudson just rubs his hands, which are taped up too, as he starts to head to the ring. Regan sees this and can be seen looking down, almost in thought. She then smiles and turns to CHBK who notices Hudson coming down. Syren hops onto the apron and CHBK gets ready to fight and Blake Mason notices Hudson as he stirs and Hudson then slides right into the ring.

 

Sharper: “Josh Hudson on his way to the ring.”

 

Knots: “Wait, what’s he doing? Regan!”

 

Sharper: “He wasn’t named. He wasn’t one of the four named who couldn’t touch CHBK or Syren!”

 

Knots: “Regan just realized that then!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know if Blake did. Look!”

 

Hudson runs over as CHBK remains back and just then, Blake Mason tackles him down. Hudson turns and shoves him back. Blake then looks at him and snaps at him. CHBK just leans back and smirks as Syren stands next to him. They can be seen talking. Regan then looks Blake before shaking his head. Mason starts to get up.

 

Hudson: “I can actually kick his ass, dumbass!”

 

Blake slowly gets up and starts to fume. The crowd meanwhile roars as CHBK and Syren remain standing next to each other, smiling. Regan snaps at Blake to get up as Hudson pushes him and starts to get up. Hudson however stops. Blake and Regan then look at one another. Blake looks around, clearly realizing he’s messed Josh’s plan up.

 

Sharper: “Blake Mason…I don’t think realized Josh wasn’t named! And I think he’s worried they’ll throw out the match! Or maybe there is honour among thieves! Maybe he thought Josh was going to get Regan disqualified?”

 

Knots: “He was getting in the zone. He was focusing on his title match and CHBK and Syren being the refs threw him for a loop. He was focusing on Amy! This isn’t going to help his confidence!”

 

Sharper: “And look at Josh. The gears are turning, but there’s no surprise and he knows CHBK will be ready for him. Regan and Blake can’t do anything to stop him.”

 

Hudson openly grits his teeth, almost knowing defeat is certain as he then looks at CHBK before lunging and going for him and lifting him up in one motion, but CHBK, now fully prepared for it, spins through and lands behind him. Syren jumps down as Hudson then realizes his next option is gone and turns only for CHBK to immediately hit the Bittersweet Ending! The crowd erupts in cheers.

 

Sharper: “Josh had no options, but tried! CHBK hits the Bittersweet Ending!”

 

Knots: “God damn it. Blake….you had them…you had them. You had at least CHBK!”

 

Blake then gets up and turns to Regan. CHBK then turns as Syren then walks over and grabs the microphone from Jason Phillips.

 

Syren: “Oh yeah…the match is totally not yet over!”

 

Blake and Regan then turn to each other. CHBK just smirks as the crowd roars. Syren hands the microphone back before Blake and Regan turn to each other. They then both rush one another. Blake ducks a clothesline attempt and Regan runs into the ropes. She bounces off and Blake kicks her in the ribs. He then goes to lift her up onto his shoulders, but Regan elbows him in the jaw and then again. She then slides down before hooking his head and hitting the CATastrophe! The crowd roars. Regan goes for the pin. Syren slides in as CHBK starts to count.

 

Sharper: “Blake and Regan immediately right back into it. They both want to leave champion still!”

 

Knots: “Blake tried for the BME, but Regan countered…just like that attack…CATastrophe!”

 

Sharper: “And look at Syren. The pin. Syren coming in to prevent Regan from going right at CHBK after!”

Regan rolls off and turns as Syren then backs up. CHBK rolls out of the ring. Syren just chuckles as CHBK turns and goes to the corner, where the US Title still is and slides it over to Regan. Syren backs up and exits the ring as Regan just glares at Syren.

 

Sharper: “Regan getting up, a ball of hate right now. Syren just laughing at her. Syren and CHBK have managed to pull off this plan. Blake Mason the mark in it and that relationship, that could be weakened. Josh Hudson caught in it too. And in the process, Regan is still the US Champion!”

 

Knots: “But not just that, they just ruined Blake Mason’s shot!”

 

CHBK waits as Syren drops down from the ring and walks around the ring and joins CHBK. CHBK and Syren start to head over to the rampway. We then see Bree Lancaster and Mikaela Street running down from the back. Syren and CHBK turn as CHBK helps Syren over the barricade and he hops over after. They back off as Regan looks around. Bree runs over to the barricade and stops as Mikaela stops at the bottom of the rampway. Hudson starts to slowly get up, holding his jaw, clearly angry. He then winces as CHBK and Syren back up in the crowd. They look down at the ring as the crowd continues to cheer.

 

Sharper: “Syren and CHBK standing tall, having outplayed the B&B Experience and Past, Present, Future!”

 

Knots: “And imagine if they were completely on the same page. Sienna wasn’t named too. I just realized that!”

 

Sharper: “Josh Hudson was their best chance. Blake Mason missed that and as a result, CHBK and Syren have gotten one over. A new dimension for Syren and Dark Fantasy, but at what cost? Josh Hudson is furious. Regan Street is furious. Blake Mason and Bree Lancaster is furious!”

 

Knots: “They may have won the battle, but they just made sure there will be war!”

 

CHBK and Syren continue to stand tall in the crowd. Bree and Mikaela look on from the floor as Regan holds her title in the ring, but not in celebration. She starts to help Josh up as Bree then backs up and turns and goes over to Blake who is stirring as the scene fades to black…
