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:

using their issues to determine everything.”
Shots of Katya insulting Kennedy
Street, Peyton Rice, Chris Cannon and Owen Cruze
follow.
Sasha: “We want a promotion of
hope.”
Shots of Sasha talking to Aaron Blackbourne, Glory Braddock and others follow.

Championship is shown before we see shots of Damian Angel attacking Casterillo and Giovanni Aries hitting the Through the Rabbit
Hole on an opponent before showing him as he stands celebrating at Taking Hold
of the Flame.
Giovanni: “The Wonderland!”
Giovanni then disappears from
the screen. We then see a shot of Mr. D standing in his office.
Mr. D: “Tonight…I move on from
day to day operations…the fate of SCW is in their
hands. Hopefully…they are good ones.”
Mr. D then turns out the light
and steps out of the office, closing the door and leaving the shot in darkness.
“[This is Our]
House” by In Flames plays as the Retribution logo comes up on the screen. The
logo remains on the screen for a few moments.
“Now, Supreme Championship
Wrestling presents Retribution 2019!”
A few moments pass before we
cut to the inside of the United Center in Chicago, Illinois as the crowd cheers
and pyro shoots out from the stage for several moments. The display ends as the
spotlights start to circle the arena. The cameras cut to the Tactical Warfare
cage that hangs over the ring before cutting to a shot of the two rings and
then showing more shots of the crowd.
Sharper: “On a night where the
fate of SCW is on the line, four teams of four battle
in two rings and one cage, Tactical Warfare! Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at
ringside and Jon…this is a huge night.”
Knots: “Never have there been
such high stakes Sharper. Everything is on the line!”
The camera continues to show
the cage from below now as we cut to the stage.
Aaron Blackbourne
vs. Tommy Valentine vs. Katie Steward
The arena lights dim down and
pink light shines on the stage. “Queen” by Loren Gray plays as The Queen of
Queens and Goddess of Desire Katie Steward steps out on the stage. She walks
her beautiful white and gold ring robe and spins around in a circle showing it
off the crowd. TJ Johnson walks out onto the stage with Katie and the two nod
to on another before Katie continues her walk to the ring with her arms out and
his hands at shoulder length. Katie walks around the ring and up the ring steps
carefully and across the apron. TJ runs up after her and holds open the ropes
for her to enter the ring. Katie walks to the center of the ring and she
disrobes for the crowd. She shows off her wrestling attire. TJ takes her robe
and exits the ring and Katie to her corner.
Sharper: “Katie Steward proved a few weeks ago even in defeat against Owen Cruze that she can certainly still go in the ring, but the
bigger story she’s been focused on is the sheer amount of matches she’s had
lately where she lost without being involved in the final decision.”
Knots: “The battle royal where Blackbourne got his
impending Adrenaline Title opportunity, a four way not too long after that…
she’s come dangerously close in both scenarios and clearly, she’s getting fed
up with not being able to be the one getting the win at the very end. Maybe
tonight will be the night she changes that.”
The arena's lights cut out completely, plunging the whole room into darkness
for several seconds before the screens light up to display a countdown.
THOMAS VALENTINE WILL BLOW THE
ROOF OFF IN
5...
4...
3...
2...
1...
NOW!
The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The
black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that
reverberates round the arena, a shot of Thomas in various poses is shown before
reverting to the blackness until the next pulse that sounds like a bass drum
beat with increasing volume until a final shot of him holding the SCW Title
aloft after winning the match at Taking Hold Of The Flame is Shown and remains
until two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The
explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Cut The Cord" by Shinedown, hits.
A shot of "Thorn" going for the Swanton from the top of a chamber pod
at Under Attack 2009 is shown in slow motion as he misses it and hits nothing
but canvas. A shot now of him hitting the Socially Unacceptable Moonsault stomp from the top rope onto Justin Davis is
shown, the impact punctuated by the last word of the verse before a shadowed
figure can be seen standing in front of the curtain at the top of the ramp.
"FREE-DOM LALALALA FREE-DOM FOLLOW ME!"
As the last word echoes, the lights start to strobe again briefly as the song reverbrates throughout the arena now, causing the fans to
start booing.
The lights finally flicker back on and Thomas Valentine can now be seen on top
of the arena's ramp as he looks out into the audience that are now booing
loudly, though some pockets of fans can still be heard chanting his name. He
stops and smiles a little before spinning around away from the fans and holding
his arms outwards with his palms upwards, he then stops and then shakes his
head before smirking and shrugging. Fireworks then shoot out at the top of the
ramp in a burst before he resumes walking down to the ring. As he walks past
the barrier he looks out into the crowds as he moves on down the ramp, the
smirk still on his face before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately
runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, simply nodding to the fans. He
jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles before standing still in
the centre, cranking his neck. Thomas then stands motionless in the corner
before waiting for his opponent.
Sharper: “Tommy Valentine is fresh off of a stint as TV Champion as well as
trying to get under the skin of Damian Angel for weeks, but clearly one thing
he’s not too happy with is the idea of someone like Blackbourne
trying to steal the spotlight from him.”
Knots: “Outside of that TV Title reign, it feels a bit like Tommy’s had a drought
and the frustrations have slowly been boiling over in recent weeks.”
All of a sudden, the lights go out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans.
After a moment, there's a bit of confusion as what sounds like slow, somber
piano music begins to play over the sound system and the Tron comes to life
with what clearly looks like grainy home movie footage from some time back,
depicting the fun two young boys are having doing a little bit of backyard
wrestling on their trampoline. This video jumps between more clips that make it
clear one of these boys is a much younger Aaron Blackbourne,
though the other boy does look a lot like him as well. As more and more clips
pass by and they grow older along the way, one final chord from the piano cuts
the video off, only for the Tron to be replaced with a static image of the
other boy as an adult, punctuated by the words "In Your Memory Tonight,
Andrew Blackbourne"
The familiar distorted sounds of “10 Inch Nails” by Audiomachine
kick in at this point, smoke having engulfed the stage in the darkness as white
lights pulse in time with the music. Slowly, through the smoke we see a figure
seemingly materialize out of nowhere before slowly walking to the edge of the
stage, a spotlight coming on over him to reveal himself as the one and only
Aaron Blackbourne. Whatever attire he's clad in for
the night is currently hidden beneath a black hooded robe-like attire that
wrapped around his body, but with no sleeves we do get to see that he's
foregone his usual arm sleeves for the night to leaves his arms exposed,
revealing countless symbols of Japanese and Hebrew origin with various
different meanings painted onto them. We are also able to see his face, where
we notice that tonight he's included color contacts that have made his sclera
pitch black and his irises a blinding white, along with a half-mask covering
his nose and mouth that resembles the bottom half of a demonic samurai mask.
Blackbourne slowly turns his gaze to the sky as he
makes his way down to the ring, the fans watching in awe as he passes while
also silently showing respect for his intent for the night. As he reaches
ringside he looks for a moment to do his usual leap up to the top turnbuckle,
but stops himself and instead slowly turns to look at the static image in
memoriam of his brother still sitting on the Tron before pointing to it, the
fans cheering and applauding in respect before he violently whips back around
and slides into the ring, slowly rising to a stand as the lights return to
normal and his eyes narrow into a glare befitting what he's become tonight. He
carefully removes the robe and sets it in his corner, revealing his usual black
tights, black knee pads and black wrestling boots with kick pads albeit
completely plain tonight, although it's revealed the rest of his body is
painted in the same scattered and varied symbols adorning his arms. He opts to
leave the half mask on as he silently waits in the corner, ready to battle.
Sharper: “Blackbourne donning the war paint of his
creative demons again tonight, but this time he has a more specific purpose. I
found out earlier today that his brother Andrew took his own life fairly
recently, and he’s determined to pay tribute to his memory with his performance
here tonight.”
Knots: “That’s never a good way to go and we at SCW sincerely encourage you to
get help if someone you know is dealing with those kinds of thoughts. I can’t
begin to imagine where Aaron’s head possibly is, especially since in about a
week’s time he has to switch gears and somehow try to take a title belt away
from Regan Street!”
The bell rings as all three competitors stare each other down. After a moment,
though, Tommy and Katie both go from looking at one another to staring down Blackbourne. The painted competitor keeps glaring at them as
he cautiously takes a few steps out from his corner, and he ends up ducking
when Valentine suddenly charges at him with a clothesline! Tommy ends up in the
corner, but Blackbourne can’t keep his focus there as
Steward closes in now and he stuns her with a couple of forearm strikes to the
face. He turns and charges in to smash Tommy in the corner with a clothesline
of his own before pulling him out of the corner, but Katie lands a hard forearm
smash of her own across the back of his neck! Blackbourne
ends up in the corner now as Katie grabs the top rope and drives her foot into
his throat, choking him as the referee admonishes her but can’t really do
anything to stop it. She finally stops, but only to back off as Valentine comes flying in with a spinning heel kick that sandwiches
the creative soul in the corner! Blackbourne drops to
his hands and knees before the former world champions begin clubbing and
stomping away at him to the jeers of the fans.
Sharper: “This is just a disgusting sight. Blackbourne
just wanted to use tonight to pay tribute to his fallen brother and test
himself against two longtime veterans, but Katie and
Tommy clearly only see this as a means to upstage them!”
Knots: “I’d like to think Aaron knew what he might be getting into tonight, but
knowing what I know now, I honestly can’t begin to guess where his head’s at.”
The two former world champions continue to try and stomp Blackbourne’s
body into the dirt before mercifully stopping. Tommy moves to start climbing to
the top turnbuckle with something big in mind, and Katie takes the opportunity
to roll Aaron over and make a cover!
1!
Just before the referee can count to two, Valentine suddenly climbs down and
stomps Katie in the back of the head! She starts to rise while angrily yelling
at Tommy before going for a right hand, which he ducks and catches her arm
before using the momentum to drop her with a russian leg sweep! He looks down at her while shaking
his head before turning his attention back to Blackbourne.
Tommy pulls him back to his feet before going to throw him out of the ring,
putting Blackbourne between the two rings for the
evening. He stomps away some more, slowly forcing the creative soul into the
small gap between the rings to remove him from the equation. Once it looks like
Blackbourne’s disappeared, Valentine turns his
attention back to a rising Steward and grabs her for what looks like a t-bone suplex, but Katie lands a
few elbows to the side of his head to slip free before connecting with a
jawbreaker!
Knots: “So much for that ‘world champions’ alliance.”
Sharper: “Every wrestler for themselves as only one person can win this triple
threat match.”
Valentine slowly gets back to his feet, clutching at his jaw and simply looking
angrier now. He charges at Katie, but she manages to duck the crescent kick he
throws before giving him a receipt for the earlier russian leg sweep! She can’t help but smirk to
herself as she pulls Tommy up in a headlock and grinds him down for a moment
before going for a bulldog, but Valentine manages to slip free and sends her
running off the ropes, and as she rebounds he floors her with a spinning
clothesline! Tommy goes for the cover.
1!
2!
Steward kicks out! Tommy shoots the referee an annoyed glare before he pulls
her back to her feet and makes an attempt at a twist of fate, but Katie manages
to shove him away! Valentine puts on the brakes before turning and charging at
her, but Steward turns his momentum against him with a huge hip toss that sends
him out of the ring! Tommy somehow is able to hook his arms under the top rope,
causing him to essentially land bridging across the top ropes of the two rings,
but despite cringing in pain from this and the rebounding he tries to shrug it
off… until Blackbourne suddenly comes from out of
nowhere, springboarding off the adjacent top rope of
the second ring and landing an elbow drop that crumples Valentine between them!
Sharper: “Blackbourne out of nowhere! He found his
way out from between the rings and just brought a bit of that creativity to collapse
the bridge Tommy’s body was making between the rings!”
Knots: “Almost like a demon striking from the shadows when you least expect
it!”
Valentine is folded in half in a very awkward-looking position on the aprons as
Blackbourne slowly rolls into the ring being used for
this contest, only for Steward to immediately set upon him with clubbing blows
across the back. She irish
whips him across the ring, but before he hits the corner Aaron manages to use
the momentum to slingshot himself up and over the top rope and onto the apron.
Katie charges at him, only to eat a shoulder to her gut. As she’s doubled over,
Blackbourne slingshots himself over the top rope and
rolls off Katie’s back to land on his feet before catching her in the back as
she rises with a dropkick that sends her through the ropes and out to the
floor. She manages to get back to her feet but notices too late that Blackbourne is running off the opposite ropes to build
momentum before soaring out of the ring with a suicide somersault senton that drives her into the rampway
as the fans go nuts!
Sharper: “Blackbourne soaring out of the ring in
spectacular fashion and crashing right into Katie!”
Knots: “If there were any doubts about where Aaron’s mind is tonight, that goes
a long way in erasing them!”
Blackbourne takes a moment to get his bearings as he
gets back to his feet, his eyes turning up to the lights with a smile as the
fans cheer him on. He grabs Katie and throws her into the ring before following
suit, where he brings her back to her feet onto to take her over with a dragon suplex, sticking the bridge!
1!
2!
Tommy Valentine suddenly comes flying in with a moonsault that breaks it up and gives Blackbourne
a painful receipt for his own bout of ‘bridge-collapsing’ earlier! Valentine
gets to his knees, gritting his teeth as he’s clearly still in a lot of pain,
but he grabs Aaron by the head and uses him to help both men back to their feet
while he angrily says something to the creative soul that the camera can’t
quite pick up. He drills Aaron between the eyes with a right hand, only for Blackbourne to suddenly respond with a step-up enzuigiri! Tommy staggers back but manages to stay on his
feet before throwing a kick at Aaron, who takes advantage of his daze to catch
it. Valentine shows his bluff, though, as he responds with an enzuigiri of his own! Blackbourne
stumbles back, looking like he’s about to fall over, but he suddenly spins and
drills Valentine with a discus elbow smash! Tommy is knocked back into the
ropes, only to rebound and suddenly run through Aaron with a spear! The fans
can’t help but cheer and applaud the back and forth between the two men.
Sharper: “Blackbourne and Valentine going back and
forth, trying to one-up each other.”
Knots: “There’s a lot of similarities between them and
Tommy at least feels there’s enough to justify trying to destroy the kid.”
Both men slowly end up inadvertently helping one another to their feet as they
lock up and jockey for positioning, trying to gain any opening available to get
the upper hand. This is suddenly interrupted by a Goddess Scream that catches
them both off guard, and also leaves them open for Katie to capitalize with a
double bulldog! The fans boo as Katie stands tall and mockingly bows before
lining both men up right next to each other so she can hit them both with a
standing moonsault double knee drop! Katie tries to
pin both men simultaneously.
1!
2!
Valentine and Blackbourne both kick out! Katie lets
out a scream of frustration before she grabs Tommy and throws him through the
ropes between the two rings, leaving him to roll into the other one. She
measures a slow-rising Blackbourne before going to
throw some kind of kick, but she stops herself and backs off when Aaron
suddenly leaps up like he’s looking to catch her with the Unchained Creativity!
When Katie realizes she’s been faked out, she furiously charges at him only for
Blackbourne to suddenly lift her onto his shoulders
before dropping into a sitout argentine backbreaker!
Knots: “I’ve never known Blackbourne to do a move
like that before! Usually, that’s reserved for guys twice his size!”
Sharper: “I’ve heard that some of Blackbourne’s
demons come with their own moves at times too, but up until tonight we haven’t
really seen it employed.”
Steward slowly gets to her feet as Blackbourne
measures her before hitting a hard running front dropkick that sends her
crashing into the corner! As she slumps to a seated position, Aaron looks up
and points to the heavens before running and bouncing out of the opposite
corner, but instead of the double knees that normally complete the Creative Process, he instead comes barreling in with a cannonball!
The fans are roaring as he pulls Katie out of the corner and starts to signal
for something, only to notice too late as Tommy springboards off the top rope
from the other ring and soars an incredible distance to catch him with The
Trailblazer! The fans can’t help but applaud that as he goes for the cover.
1!
2!
Blackbourne gets a shoulder up! Valentine is
undeterred as he pulls Aaron closer to one of the corners before he slowly
ascends to the top rope, measuring him before he leaps off and lands with the
Force of Nature! As he rises briefly to capitalize, he’s suddenly blindsided by
The Botox Injection from Steward! Tommy hits the mat and Katie goes to cover Blackbourne now.
1!
2!
Blackbourne gets a shoulder up again!
Sharper: “If changing up the Creative Process for tonight and kicking out after
an incredible Trailblazer and taking the full brunt of that Force of Nature doesn’t tell you how bad this kid wants it tonight, I don’t
think anything will!”
Knots: “Katie and Tommy have thrown just about everything but the kitchen sink at him at this point, not to mention trying to
take out each other in the process!”
Steward pounds the mat in frustration before signaling that it’s time to end
this. She picks Blackbourne up and slowly begins
positioning him for Save the Queen, but he just drops back to his knees. She
tries to haul him up into position more forcefully the second time, but this
leaves her wide open for Valentine to Cross the T! Tommy goes and quickly kicks
at Aaron until he’s rolled out onto the apron before he starts measuring
Steward, stomping his foot as she slowly tries to get back to her feet. He
doesn’t notice Blackbourne slowly pulling himself up
on the apron and using the ropes to support himself. Once Katie’s finally right
where he wants her, he runs past her and bounces off the ropes looking for the
Beggar's Throne, but Katie manages to pull away and he only stomps the mat! He
staggers a bit, looking like he might’ve tweaked his knee from the missed
stomp, leaving him open for Steward to grab his arms from behind with the
Platinum Blonde being her intention, but Tommy suddenly slips free and hits the
mat as Blackbourne suddenly comes flying in and
blasts Katie between the eyes with a springboard Unchained Creativity! She goes
tumbling out of the ring and TJ Johnson immediately goes to check on her. Blackbourne turns and catches Tommy charging at him,
hoisting him over his shoulder and holding him there for a moment before
looking up to the sky and yelling out through his mask “This is for you
Andrew!” before dropping Valentine with an air raid crash neckbreaker!
He makes the cover, hooking the leg deep and nodding his head with each count.
1!
2!
3!
The bell rings as “10 Inch Nails” by Audiomachine
hits again and Blackbourne slowly rises to his feet,
though he clearly looks like he took a beating. The referee raises his arm
high.
Phillips: “Here is your winner… Aaron Blackbourne!”
Sharper: “A huge victory for Blackbourne here tonight
and definitely an incredible way to honor his brother’s memory!”
Knots: “He definitely needed the momentum from this one, because he’s going to
have to really be in top form if he wants to try and dethrone the Hellcat for
that Adrenaline Title!”
Blackbourne slowly drops to his knees and points to
the sky as the fans cheer and applaud him, the camera able to catch a few tears
slowly falling from his eyes. The referee checks on Tommy while TJ helps Katie
to the back, who looks extremely angry that she’s once
again lost without being involved in the final decision.
Backstage we see Katya walking
into the locker room of Dark Fantasy with Ravyn
Taylor, Syren and CHBK inside. The crowd boos upon
seeing them.
Katya: “Are you ready for
tonight?”
Syren: “Totally. We are. But are
you?”
Katya: “Look, I’d told you…I
wanted Marie on this team-“
Syren: “She’s great. That’s not the
issue. It’s her sister.”
Katya: “It’s not ideal. Especially
given everything, but she is loyal to her sister. Just like
you are loyal to each other.”
Syren: “I don’t want her costing us
everything we’ve worked to accomplish!”
Ravyn: “Zoe…we’ve come up with a
couple of plans. We’ll make sure that we’re calling the shots tonight. And at
the end, nothing is going to change for us…except we know it will be
permanent.”
CHBK: “Exactly…”
Syren: “Would’ve been nicer to have
Xander in there. His size-“
CHBK: “And we’ve have the same
problem just without a clear tie to us.”
Syren sighs.
Ravyn: “Unfortunately, he’s right.
Either way, when we’re all in there, we make sure to end it fast and then we
can celebrate and deal with any problems after.”
The crowd boos as we cut away.
Peyton Rice vs. Scarlet Grey
Nymphetamine (Deva-Fix) begins to play,
and once the guitars kick in the lights dim just enough for red and white
lights to stand out as they sway across the stage. After a moment where nothing
seems to happen, Scarlet Grey suddenly rises from the floor standing on a stone
pillar covered in a gorgeous red and gold cape with a hood, looking down and on
one knee until the pillar completely rises to the top that is where she stands
up and lifts her head. This is when a white spotlight cuts through the crimson veil
down onto her as the song suddenly fades out, only to switch to the familiar
tune of Exodus. Spreading her arms and unhooding herself revealing her truly
perfect face and her crimson hair tied up in a very familiar ponytail, the
camera flashes light up the arena when she then drops her cape showing off her
perfect sexy body clad in her own spin on something familiar: red and gold
trim vinyl short tights with the cut off top and only her right arm sleeved,
knee pads and boots with shin guards and "Perfection" written on her
butt. She poses for a few moments with a smirk while most of the crowd jeers
before she leaps off the pillar and lands on her feet at the edge of the stage.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first,
weighing in at 135 lbs., from parts unknown, Scarlet Grey!”
Scarlet slowly walks down to the ring while purposely swaying her hips. She
slowly walks up the steps before stepping between the top and second ropes,
taking her sweet time with it to show off every curve of her truly perfect
figure. Scarlet then climbs the turnbuckles and raises her arms as the lights
return to normal, basking in her own amusement at what she's doing before she
climbs down and waits in her corner.
Sharper: “This is the most disrespectful and tasteless stunt I have ever seen,
and I have seen plenty. Mimicking Kelcey Wallace’s
entrance and gear, this time she took it a step further, what is she trying to
prove? Scarlet wants to get into Peyton Rice’s head, the star protégé of Kelcey and close friend to the Cannon’s. If Chris was
involved in the Blake match tonight, you know that he would have something to
say.”
Knots: “This is sickening, I agree, and it will backfire on her. Scarlet is a
coward, she knows that Kelcey can’t defend herself,
if she could, this wouldn’t be happening, but Peyton can. I saw Peyton
backstage earlier, she was not smiling, she wasn’t joking around, she was
focused on this match and if this did not give her more of a reason to win, I
don’t know what will.”
The arena goes dark before a lone spotlight shines on the entrance, suddenly
the opening beats of “All the Days" by Mammoth play throughout the arena
as the beautiful Peyton Rice walks out in wrestling gear and jacket. Her long dark blonde hair hanging down. She looks around at
the crowd before getting to one knee and making a line across the entrance, she crosses her arms and lowers her head for a
moment before standing up and pointing to the ring as the crowd roars.
She stares right at Scarlet Grey who smirks and places her leg on the top
turnbuckle slowly lifting her kneepad over like Kelcey
used to do. Peyton starts to walk to the ring with conviction, stopping and
pulling off some high fiving the fans and taking selfies with them. She continues
to head to the ring soaking up the reaction before hopping into the apron and
pointing the crowd before flipping over the top rope as the crowd roars and
stepping on the second rope, raising her arms and looking up, she then thanks
the fans while being announced….
Phillips: “From Glendale, Arizona! Weighing in at 115 pounds, here is “Pretty”
Peyton Rice!”
The crowd roars as she flips from the second rope on to her feet and does a
cartwheel. She takes off her jacket and ruffles her hair a little, standing in
the corner staring at Scarlet….
Sharper: “Look at the eyes of Peyton Rice, we have never seen this young woman
so intent, so focused. She is always smiling, a pleasure to be around, a breath of fresh air but like we talked earlier, this has
become personal.”
Knots: “Very personal and Scarlet is going all out
with this imitation, now doing the Knee Pads like Kelcey
used to, this is too much and it will be….. wait….
As Scarlet again places her other leg on the top turnbuckle and starts pulling her
knee up, the referee is waiting to call for the bell but Peyton runs across the
ring and dropkicks Scarlet right into the turnbuckle and ropes, falling behind
as the referee calls for the bell, Peyton rolls up the stumbling Scarlet….
1!
2!
3.. No! Scarlet Kicks Out!
Sharper: “That was almost over in record time!”
Knots: “Peyton is not backing down, look at her!”
Peyton starts drilling forearm after forearm on Scarlet, backing her up to the
ropes, she then jumps up and Monkey Flips her as Scarlet lands on her face, the
crowd roars. Peyton runs across the ropes and basement dropkicks her before
hopping up and hitting the ropes and performing a second rope moonsault, she hooks the leg for the cover….
1!
2!
Kick Out By Scarlet!
Sharper: “Peyton is not letting up and her blinding speed is a sight to watch!”
Knots: “She wants to finish this quick, show Scarlet that she is far from
perfect but needs to be careful, one mistake and Scarlet can take her down.”
Peyton grabs Scarlet, she unloads with more forearms before whipping her into
the turnbuckle, Peyton executes a springboard elbow, and then a bulldog. She
turns Scarlet over and drives her forearm into her face for the pin….
1!
2!
Scarlet gets her shoulder up!
Peyton wastes no time and picks up Scarlet, locks her in a front facelock and runs up the ropes to hit Bear Down but Scarlet
pushes her off, Peyton lands on her feet and runs at her but Scarlet lifts her
up and strikes Peyton with a European Forearm snapping Peyton’s head back and
landing hard as the crowd boos...
Sharper: “Did she…..”
Knots: “… she did, Scarlet hit one of Kelcey’s
signatures on Peyton and turned the momentum of this match. Peyton his hard….”
Sharper: “She could have whiplash.”
Scarlet smirks and starts kicking the downed Peyton, she drops a knee on her
chest, before seductively crawling on Peyton and tapping on her nose, she then
kisses Peyton on the lips and kips them locked as Peyton struggles to break
free, the referee makes the quick count…
1…

Scarlet breaks the kiss and pulls Peyton up by the hair, she smirks, locks her
leg and performs a Perfect-10 Plex, bridging for the cover…
1!
2!
3… No! Peyton Kicks Out!
Sharper: “I cannot believe I am watching this. The absolute disrespect, she is
trying to humiliate Peyton and even tried to choke her out with a kiss?”
Knots: “Scarlet has no limits to this Sharper. I mean, she is nothing like Kelcey, yet she is using all her moves. Peyton get up.”
The crowd boos. Scarlet looks down at Peyton, picking her up by the hair, she
slaps her a few times, whipping her into the turnbuckle, she runs at her with a
vicious clothesline, sliding under the ropes, grabbing Peyton by the legs and
dropping her to the mats, sliding and pulling her right into the corner post,
crotch first. Scarlet then places both of her hands on Peyton’s butt and starts
to caress her cheeks….
Sharper: “Okay, this is enough!”
Knots: “Scarlet is the luckiest person here tonight…. I mean this is horrible!”
Sharper: “Come on Jon!”
Scarlet slaps Peyton’s cheeks before sliding back into the ring, picking up
Peyton by the hair, hitting the Hug and Kiss. Scarlet smirks and covers Peyton
holding her face down….

Shoulder Up By Peyton!
Scarlet looks up at the referee and hits her hands together telling him to
count faster. Scarlet gets up, she drags up Peyton by her hair and throws her
against the ropes, Peyton bounces back and Scarlet goes for a Powerslam but Peyton flows through and lands on her feet,
Scarlet turns right into a Hurricarana and pin
combination by Rice…

Kick Out by Scarlet!
The crowd oh’s as Scarlet gets back up, Peyton runs
at her and goes for a step up Enzinguiri but Scarlet
ducks, Peyton lands on the mat, she then gets up only for Scarlet to run
against the ropes and hit the Perfect Fate! The one arm swinging neckbreaker as the crowd boos loudly….
Knots: “Oh no, the Perfect Fate!”
Sharper: “Kelcey won world Championships with that
move! She just hit it on Peyton and the young Rice is not moving!”
Knots: “Come on!”
Scarlet smiles and looks at everyone saying, “That was Perfect!”
She drops on Peyton and hooks the leg for the cover just like Kelcey would. The referee drops down for the cover…
1!
2!
3… No! Peyton gets her shoulder up!
Scarlet looks up shocked. The referee holds up two fingers while she holds up
three. Scarlet gets up and walks over to the corner, pointing at the palm of
her hand, the referee boos as she looks to hot the Perfect Ending, she looks
into the camera and blows a kiss to Chris Cannon….
Sharper: “There is no end to this by Scarlet. She has been hitting moves from Kelcey’s arsenal and now she looks to end this match with
the Perfect Ending, she hits this, it’s over.”
Knots: “She is adding insult to injury but why? Can she even execute this?
Peyton is in trouble!”
Peyton slowly gets up, she turns right as Scarlet runs at her to strike Rice
with the Shotei but Peyton ducks, Scarlet turns and
gets kicked in the gut, Rice hooks her head and runs against the ropes hitting
the Bear Down Tornado DDT! The crowd roars as Peyton
doesn’t go for the cover, instead she hops on the ropes, jumping to the very
top, looking out into the crowd and then to Scarlet….
She screams “This is for Kelcey!”
Jumping off the ropes and hitting the Pretty Girl Drop, Corkscrew Shooting Star
Press as the crowd jumps off their chairs…..
Sharper: “What a move and Peyton Rice struck fast! Is this
one over!”
Knots: “It hit it’s mark! The Pretty Girl Drop named
after one of Kelcey’s move! Is this
enough!”
Peyton hooks the leg as the referee drops down for the cover….
1!
2!
3!
The bell rings as Peyton sits up and screams. The crowd roars as the referee
raises her hand, she starts to yell at the downed Scarlet, she will NEVER be Kelcey Wallace! The crowd roars louder….
Phillips: “The winner of the match… Peyton Rice!”
“All the Days” by Mammoth plays throughout the arena, Peyton falls to
one knee as Scarlet starts to stir. She then gets up and climbs to the second
rope, raising her hands in victory. Scarlet starts to slowly roll out of the
ring….
Sharper: “What an incredible victory for that young
woman right there, she fought for the honor of Kelcey
and she succeeded. Scarlet pushed her to limits she didn’t know she had. Peyton
had to fight hard and it was personal, a lessoned learned by this young woman
and we are watching her mature into her role here in SCW.”
Knots: “Huge win for her, she was able to take down Scarlet and do it wrestling
her game. Scarlet dipped too many times in the Kelcey
Wallace arsenal, she threw herself out there, took a
gamble and failed. Peyton’s quickness did it. At least she was able to grab her
butt, Sharper.”
Sharper: “You’re too much Jon.”
Peyton points to the crowd and continues to celebrate, turning and looking
right at Scarlet who the referee helps to the back….
Backstage, Marie Jones is seen in her wrestling gear. She places a blouse she
was presumably wearing into her bag as we then see Kimberly Williams jump into
the screen. The crowd cheers seeing her. Marie turns.
Marie: “Kim!”
Kim: “So? What do you think?”
Marie: “You…you’re wearing the
same attire as me!”
We then pan out to show Kim’s
full attire where she is wearing identical attire.
Marie: “I thought we were past
this after everything that happened-“
Kim: “We are. This is
extraordinary circumstances! The world could end….okay, maybe not. But SCW
could be uh….Classy? Angelic? On
drugs? I don’t know. Whatever. You think
Katya’s your pick. Fine.”
Marie: “Wait…did Ravyn put you up to this-“
Kim just glares at Marie.
Marie: “Alright…fair point.”
Kim: “You know when they’re
going to put you out. I’m in the dark. So this is my way of watching your back.
And I will do anything to help you. And if this gives us an edge, with people
wondering if it’s you or me they’re facing…then we’re going to do it. Because
if Marie thinks Katya is going to give her the best chance to succeed…then I’m
going to give Marie the best chance to succeed.”
Marie just smiles a bit.
Marie: “Thank you.”
Kim nods.
Kim: “So want to get in some
pre-match flirting?”
Marie: “Kim…”
Kim: “Hey, it’s not stabbing!”
Marie rolls her eyes as we cut
away.
Dawn Lohan vs. Sam Raine vs. Alexis Quinne
The eyes all focus on the
stage as A Stranger I Remain hits over the P.A System. The lights begin to
flash orange, red and black crowd starts to buzz and cheer. As the crowd looks
on and the song kicks into gear, smoke fills up the stage. The lights continue
to flash black and purple. From there, the crowd sees Alexis Quinne, standing with her head lowered, a black hat with an
orange, red and black Poncho with gray and brown pants. Alexis lifts her her head up and we see she's wearing a black and orange Guy
Fawkes mask with El Rudo's mask in her left hand. Quinne turns around and peers to the crowd. She then heads
down to the ring.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is a triple
threat match…introducing first… From San Francisco, California Pint Sized
Awesomeness...ALEXIS QUINNE!”
Alexis walks down to the ring, her head lowered. She's
looking around the ring. The camera does a full rotation as Quinne
walks past it. Quinne stops mid-way. She hunches her
back as she quickly walks down the ring. Eventually, Alexis jumps on the apron
and enters the ring through the bottom rope. Alexis then ascends up the top
turnbuckle and unmask herself. Alexis this spits out a red mist of sorts in the
air, catching the crowd by surprise. Alexis takes off her hat and licks some of
the mist from her mouth before she flashes the crowd the peace sign before
shortly turning it into a fist. As she holds out her fist, she twist her head around the arena. Alexis jumps off and
crouches in the corner, looking around as she grits her teeth. She places Rudo's mask on the apron as she grabs the bottom ropes with
her two hands.
"Confident" by Demi Lovato echoes from the loud speaker.
Dawn Lohan pushes her way through the curtain. She stands in front of the
entrance way, she takes a moment to soak in the reaction from the crowd. As the
music is coursing through the arena she knows she can't delay the inevitable.
She slowly makes her down to the ring, all business. She makes her way to the
ring steps. When she reaches the top of the steps, she walks along the apron.
Grabbing the top rope she pulls back, using the momentum she propels herself
forward over the top rope into the ring. She immediately springs up. She walks
to the turnbuckle, stands on the middle turnbuckle soaking in the atmosphere.
She hops off the turnbuckle and remains in the corner until the match gets
underway.
Phillips: “Introducing next, she is one half of Lohan Country, she is…DAWN
LOHAN!!!”
The arena’s lights cut and as the room falls into complete and utter darkness a
buzz starts to spread through the crowd. It feels like a lifetime that the
lights are off before they start to flash in a sequence that resembles
lightening. Another moment passes and as the sound of rain fills the air while
white and blue confetti starts falling on both sides of the entrance way. The
sound of the rain is broken up momentarily as the voice of Samantha Raine is head saying…
“Raining on your parade.”
As the crowd start to react, the sounds of Firefly's “Unbreakable” starts to
play through the arena. The crowd just further erupts in to cheers as the small
silhouette of Samantha makes her way on to the stage, but she isn’t alone.
There is another silhouette behind her clapping his heads.
"Where are the people that accuse me? The ones who beat me down and bruise
me...
They hide just out of sight, Can't face me in the light, They'll return but
I'll be stronger..."
The song’s intro gives way to the chorus and as the song takes a harder edge
the flashes of lighting become more violent. On the big screen the fans are
treated to the iconic view of Sam as she stands in an empty as it starts to
rain on her. She just looks up at the sky allowing the rain drops to pelt her
face while lifting her arms up towards the sky. In the meantime, Sam along with
the man that can now be identified as Woody Hoyt start to make their way down
to the ring.
Philips: “Making her way to the ring from Toronto, Ontario, Canada; weighting
in at one hundred and two pounds, and being accompanied to the ring by Woody
Hoyt, she is… SAMANTHA RAINE!”
Before they start actually making their way down to the ring, Sam raises both
of her hands up to her lips and kisses them, bending over towards the fans she
acts like she is blowing kisses to everyone in attendance.
"Forget the fear it's just a crutch, That tries
to hold you back...
And turn your dreams in to dust, All you need to do is just, trust...
Trust!"
As they reach the ring, Woody jumps up on to the apron while Sam walks up the
ring stairs. He holds the ropes open so that she can climb in to the ring.
Woody hops off the apron as Sam goes to the nearest turnbuckle. Which she
climbs to the top and once again blows kisses to everyone in the arena.
Sharper: “Already SCW fans, this next match is a
triple threat. Sam Raine taking on
Dawn Lohan and Alexis Quinne.”
Knots: “All three have wanted a shot at Andrew Raynes,
but tonight, they get a shot at one another.”
The ref calls for the bell and Alexis goes after Raine,
and they begin exchanging punches. Dawn charges over, just as Raine lands a huge forearm, staggering Alexis. Raine then kicks Dawn in the midsection before delivering a
forearm. Dawn staggers back just as Raine grabs her
and whips her into the corner. Raine follows up with
a running clothesline. Dawn stumbles out of the corner and Raine
hooks her, dropping her with a snap suplex.
Alexis gets to her and charges, clubbing Raine in the
back of the head. Alexis hits a forearm then goes to
whip Raine into the ropes, but Raine
reverse, pulling Alexis into a snapmare. Alexis hits
the mat just as Raine follows up with a kick to the
side of Alexis’ head. Raine then goes for the cover.
Sharper: “Sam Raine with the first pin attempt of the
match. It has been all her since the opening bell.”

Knots: “And those kicks are vicious.”
Dawn gets to the outside, standing on the apron, with Alexis down in the ring. Raine is slowly rising to her feet. She turns just as Dawn
leaps onto the top rope. Dawn leaps off of the top as Raine
turns around and Dawn connects with a flying fore arm.
Sharper: “Dawn with the Wonderful Forearm!”
Knots: “And now she is going up top.”
Dawn positions herself onto the top rope. She looks down at Raine
before leaping off of the top rope and connecting with a 450 Splash.
Knots: “A New Dawn! Dawn needs to make the cover.”
Sharper: “I think she took a lot of impact with that.”
Dawn rolls off of Raine holding her ribs. Dawn begins
pulling herself toward Raine, getting to one knee
only for Alexis to come out of nowhere, and connect with a superkick.
Knots: “Oh man! Dressorosa! Alexis
using Dawn’s own move against her.”
Dawn slumps to the mat. Alexis gets to her feet and grabs Dawn before planting

to sit herself up. Raine is shown climbing the
turnbuckle, saluting the cheering crowd.
Kandis can be seen walking backstage
as the crowd boos. She takes a few steps before stopping. She smirks as she
walks over to a door, the office of Mr. D. She smirks as she knocks on the door
and then whistles a bit before looking around. She then turns and leans in and
grabs the door handle and slowly opens it. She slowly pushes the door and in
and looks in. She then sighs.
Kandis: “Damnit…I could’ve made this
night so much easier.”
???: “What are you doing?”
Kandis closes the door quickly as Kandis turns as we see Leviticus standing there.
Kandis: “Uh…nothing.”
Leviticus: “Didn’t look like
nothing. And you said easy…and I don’t know if you’re talking about yourself.”
Kandis: “Hey…I wouldn’t go after
you.”
Leviticus: “That hurts. And
here I was going to offer you that I could sell the brand new Leviticus
approved Kandis ass cushion. It’s the size of a small
village but damn you’re comfy. Instead, I’d just offer to put your name on
hemorrhoid cream.”
Kandis scoffs.
Kandis: “What does it matter? You’ve
been gone for like nearly a year. Did you run off with the Wonderland goat?”
Leviticus: “No…he joined a
convent. It was a weird time. I just figured that whoever wins may want some
help selling their brand.”
Kandis laughs.
Kandis: “That’s only going to be the
case for anyone but Katya. Katya’s done the best way of selling it. Opportunity. The people who matter are happy…and the people
are watching.”
Leviticus: “For how long…”
Leviticus turns and walks off
as Kandis rolls her eyes.
Kandis: “Some marketing genius.”
Kandis turns and walks off as we cut
away.
Casterillo vs. “Black Ice” Konrad Raab
“Black Ice” by ACDC plays over
the sound system. Konrad Raab comes out through the
curtain as Konrad's wearing his dark blue and black mask with the same colour
wrestling trousers with his nickname The Black Ice on the front of them with
Pit Bull Energy logos on the side, with black gloves on both of his hands.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall
and has a twenty minute time limit, taking place in ring 2. First, from
Cologne, Germany, he is The Black Ice, Konrad Raab!”
He ignores the fans due to his focus on wanting to fight in the ring. He goes
up the stairs before going in-between the ropes before sitting down in the
corner of the ring with the crowd cheering for him, having a nasty look in his
eyes waiting for the match to start.
Sharper: “Konrad Raab, you see his persona of Black Ice on display. He is
ready to fight. He has been incensed by Casterillo as
of late.”
Knots: “Casterillo
doesn’t really care about anything but his mission, whatever that is. The
question is whether he’s going to show up tonight.”
The entire arena suddenly goes
black and stays that way for about 10 seconds, making the crowd begin to think
that nothing is going to happen. That is until a single lightning strike
strikes on the big screen. This leads right to the beginning of "Seven
Devils" by Florence & The Machine.
Phillips: “And his opponent, from
wherever he chooses, he is Casterillo!”
The music plays even though
the arena stays dark. It is several seconds before suddenly the lights turn on,
with the dark figure of Casterillo standing right in
the center of the ring, with a blank look in his eyes. He looks across at
Konrad Raab.
Sharper: “Casterillo
is here. He’s in the ring. And Raab and him have locked eyes.”
Knots: “So I guess he does
care about this. We’ve seen him just walk out of matches, not show up just
because he doesn’t care. He’s here for Raab.”
Sharper: “Including on
Breakdown, disrespecting Glory Braddock by just leaving the match halfway
through, as if he had made his point and was done with her.”
Knots: “Well if Raab has a choice, and he’s just pacing, the only way he’s
leaving is in an ambulance!”
The bell sounds and the crowd
roars as Raab walks out as does Casterillo
and immediately Raab goes for a hard right. Casterillo ducks and spins around before nailing him with a
hard right. Raab staggers back. Casterillo
nails him with another shot and another before pushing him against the ropes.
He goes to nail him with a hard right to the ribs, but Raab
headbutts him. He nails him with a hard right and
then a left to the ribs before pushing him back into the corner, letting out a
yell. He then nails him with a hard right to the ribs before nailing him with
repeated hard right body blows to the ribs as the referee counts.

back. Konrad turns around and Casterillo nails him
with a running shoulder tackle. Konrad hits the mat.
Sharper: “Casterillo
out of the corner with a hard tackle.”
Knots: “And right down onto
Konrad. We have a fight here!”
Casterillo drops down as Konrad rolls
over and Casterillo nails him in the back with a hard
right before clubbing him in the back and then again before Konrad rolls to his
back. Casterillo goes after him and goes for the
throat, but Konrad swings up and nails him with a head with a hard right and then
moves back and boots him in the back. Casterillo
falls back and rolls over. Konrad rolls through. He gets up and Casterillo looks at him. The crowd roars before Konrad and Casterillo lunge at one another again. Casterillo
goes high, but Konrad ducks and nails him with a ribs
with a left before nailing him with a hard right to the jaw and then spinning
through with a spinning back fist. Casterillo falls
into the corner.
Sharper: “Konrad fighting back
as Casterillo now in the corner and Konrad coming at
him again.”
Knots: “No room to move unless
you make it. Konrad’s staying close and Casterillo
happy to throw down too!”
Konrad shoulders him in the
ribs and then again and again and again. The referee counts again.

Konrad steps back and grabs Casterillo and goes to whip him across. Casterillo
stops and spins him in. Konrad hits the corner. He steps out and Casterillo runs at him and nails him with the Thunder Run. The crowd ohs and Konrad rolls over,
holding his jaw. Casterillo walks around the
ring before turning back to Konrad and dragging him up by his mask. He then
knees him in the ribs and then again before pulling him in and into hard right,
knocking him down. He then stomps Konrad in the face and then the ribs. He
walks around the ring. Konrad rolls over, starting to get up and staggers up
and Casterillo drops down and hits a spinning sweep
kick to the shins of Konrad, causing him to fall face first into the mat. Casterillo moves in and mounts him and nails him with a
hard right and then another and another. The crowd boos. Konrad starts to swing
up, trying to disrupt Casterillo as Casterillo then grabs his hands and tries to block it.
Konrad then leans up and headbutts Casterillo, causing him to fall back. Both get up,
resetting.
Sharper: “Konrad fighting out
of the mount and a headbutt gets Casterillo
staggered.”
Knots: “For now. He’s still
coming.”
Casterillo gets up and grabs Konrad and
Konrad grab his shoulder before nailing him with a hard uppercut to the stomach
and then another. He follows up with a third. Casterillo
falls back into the corner. Konrad moves in and nails him with a hard right and

Konrad grabs him and pulls him out and grabs his arms and tries to control
them, as the crowd cheers. He continues to hold on, but Casterillo
headbutts him. He headbutts him again and then a third time. Konrad
staggers back. Casterillo shakes it off and then
nails Konrad with a boot. The crowd ohs as Konrad
hits the mat and rolls over.
Sharper: “Casterillo
with a boot to the face. Konrad down.”
Knots: “These two are just
throwing hard rights, headbutts, anything. Nothing scientific about this. They’re beating the holy hell
out of each other and at some point, they can’t keep going.”
Sharper: “Raab
hitting the mat, but no cover from Casterillo. He’s
far from done.”
Casterillo grabs Raab
and drags him up and elbows him in the back of the head. Raab
falls to his hands and knees and Casterillo knees him
hard in the ribs. Raab rolls over. He grits his teeth
and starts to get up and Casterillo snaps into the
ropes behind him and runs forward, drilling Raab with
a hard Thunder Run, the second one in the match. Raab
rolls over. He turns and winces as Casterillo turns
back and stomps him in the ribs and then again and again. He shoves Raab to the apron and then boots him in the face and then
again and again. Raab falls to the floor, rolling in
front of the announce tables. Casterillo backs up and
then looks around as the crowd boos him.
Sharper: “Casterillo
dumping Konrad on the floor.”
Knots: “Just unceremoniously
booting him from the ring. Like it’s Casterillo’s.”
Casterillo then walks over.
Casterillo: “This is your chance to run,
Konrad! Take it!”
The crowd boos as Konrad
slowly gets up, his eyes, looking out ahead of him. Casterillo
backs up, watching Konrad.
Sharper: “He wants Konrad to
run.”
Knots: “Fat chance there.”
Konrad then pulls himself up
and then turns and rolls into the ring. He gets up and Casterillo
runs over and knees him in the chest. He clubs him in the back and then again
and again and again. He grabs Konrad and knees him again in the chest. Konrad
falls over to his hands and knees. Casterillo then
pulls him in and places his head between his legs. He hoists him up for a powerbomb, but Konrad drives his thumbs into the eyes of Casterillo and slides down. The crowd roars as Casterillo staggers back, grimacing in pain. Konrad then
runs at him and nails him with a running European uppercut that sends Casterillo up and over the top rope and into the space
between the rings. Casterillo slowly gets up and
Konrad grabs him by the hair and drags him back in before clubbing him in the
back and then again before pulling him in and spinning around him and hitting a
release German suplex. Casterillo
rolls over, holding the back of his head before ending up on his stomach.
Sharper: “Big suplex! German style. Raab taking over
the Dane overhead and dropping him on his head.”
Knots: “And making sure he got
it. Casterillo feeling it!”
Konrad starts to get up and Casterillo grabs at the ropes, grimacing. Konrad runs over
and kicks him in the ribs and then again and again. Casterillo
rolls against the ropes and Konrad grabs the top rope and starts to stomp away

hits a back chop to the throat of Raab. Raab struggles and Casterillo
hits another Thunder Run. He then falls into the ropes. The crowd boos.

something. Make it so they can’t get up.”
Casterillo turns around as Konrad rolls
over. Casterillo walks over and suddenly hits a powerdrive elbow to the back of Konrad’s head. The crowd ohs. Casterillo

referee grabs Raab, but Raab
grabs him and turns and runs across the ring and just hip throws him over the
top rope and into the other ring. The crowd ohs.
Sharper: “Konrad! What are you
doing?”
Knots: “This is the Black Ice
persona. He’s always been a bit hard to control. We saw that against Jason Helms
years ago! But damn, Hollinsworth got height!”
Sharper: “Look out!”
Konrad turns around and Casterillo steps out and nails Konrad with the fifth
Thunder Run. Casterillo then falls into the opposite
corner. Konrad rolls over as we see another official running down from the
back. Hollinsworth rolls over and we see another
official coming out with him. The first slides into the ring and then calls for
the bell. The crowd boos as the referee points to Hollinsworth
and then Casterillo. The crowd boos some more.
Phillips: “Ladies and
gentlemen, the referee has disqualified Konrad Raab
for striking an official. As a result, your winner, Casterillo!”
The crowd boos some more. Casterillo just looks up and to the officials before
turning to Konrad, shaking his head.
Casterillo: “Pathetic.”
Casterillo then steps through the ropes
and down to the floor. Konrad starts to get up and staggers to the ropes. He
snaps at Casterillo to come back. Casterillo
just ignores Konrad.
Sharper: “Casterillo
now just leaving.”
Knots: “He’s done. Konrad cost
himself. He looks to be just done with this. He gave Konrad his match and he
couldn’t control himself!”
Sharper: “Again, leaving on
his own terms. Perhaps he wanted to do more, but the fact is that the moment
that Konrad threw it away, he realized it worth it to him.”
Konrad pulls himself up. One
of other officials stop him, but Konrad pushes him out
of the way and Konrad rolls to the floor. He then starts to walk to the back. Casterillo just calmly walks to the back, ignoring the boos from the crowd and Konrad. He just continues on his
way, as if done his job, and heads up the rampway,
when we then see Glory Braddock walking out from the back. The crowd cheers as
Glory steps forward. Casterillo looks up and smirks
seeing her. Casterillo steps forward. Glory just
looks at him.
Sharper: “Glory Braddock
coming out to confront Casterillo!”
Knots: “He abandoned their
match on Breakdown! Casterillo seems to be focusing
on just disappointing as many of his opponents as possible!”
Sharper: “Again, it’s because
he only focuses on what he finds important!”
Glory: “So…you
going to run?”
Casterillo: “I did not run.”
Glory: “Prove it.”
Casterillo smirks and Casterillo lunges and grabs her by the throat. Glory grabs
him by the arm and nails him in the ribs with a left before wrenching Casterillo out of the choke, using the shot to the ribs as
a way to get free. Casterillo however spins through
and wrenches Glory arm in a counter before Konrad starts to stagger up the rampway. Glory then turns and forearms him. Casterillo’s arm slips and he staggers down the rampway just enough as Konrad runs at Casterillo
and lets out a yell before jumping up and hitting a vicious running dropkick,
nailing Casterillo in the face. He hits the steel as
Konrad hits too. He grimaces in pain and rolls over as the crowd erupts in
cheers.
Sharper: “Glory keeping Casterillo here so Konrad could get all
of that dropkick! Get everything he wanted and more!”
Knots: “My God! Konrad ran up
the rampway and tried to take Casterillo’s
head off.”
The camera gets a shot of Casterillo is down and seemingly out from the force of the
dropkick.
Sharper: “Casterillo
may be out. My God!”
Knots: “Talk about an
exclamation point. Heel of his boot…”
Sharper: “Take a look at this
again!”
REPLAY:
The Retribution logo comes up on the screen as we see Casterillo staggering down the rampway
as Konrad lets out a yell and runs at him and jumps up and hits a running
dropkick at Casterillo’s head, knocking him down.
Both hit the rampway hard before the logo comes up
again and we see the kick in slow motion, seeing Konrad getting his heel right
into the jaw of Casterillo with great impact.
Sharper: “Look at this impact!
You can see it. The impact causing Casterillo’s
head to turn.”
Knots: “Konrad knew he had one
shot and made sure he hit! Casterillo may have been
controlled in the match, but Konrad getting the final shot here!”
Sharper: “And with an assist
from Glory Braddock!”
The replay continues to show Konrad hitting the steel
hard and Casterillo collapsing to the stage. The
Retribution logo comes up.
We cut to see officials and
the trainer out to check on Casterillo and Konrad.
Glory walks over and goes to Konrad to help him up.
Glory: “You’re welcome.”
She nods and Konrad starts to
push himself up, seething. He then turns and suddenly swings at Glory. Glory
jukes back as Konrad staggers forward. He then turns and goes after her again
before officials move in and start to restrain, Konrad. Konrad yells out as
Glory looks at him, annoyed as Casterillo stirs on
the stage.
Sharper: “Konrad going after
Glory now!”
Knots: “Black Ice still
dictating things. That mindset. There are no allies.
Just enemies! Just targets!”
We then cut away.
The sound of an acoustic guitar strum is heard as we see
a shot of CHBK diving off the top rope onto Shawn Winters. This is followed by
a shot of Jake Starr getting German suplexed by Josh
Hudson. The strums continue to pick up as its followed
by a shot of Syren walking to the ring, holding the
SCW World Championship, before cutting to shot Jason Wheeler spearing Brian
Kinney in the ring. James Exeter celebrating holding the World Championship
follows as we hear the roar of the crowd start to build up in the background.
Following, that shot, Regan Street knocking Brittany Lohan off the stage
follows before we see Simon Lyman and Donovan Kayl
looking at one another before it abruptly phrases.
???: “What are you doing?”
The scene cuts to see Mr. D sitting in the crowd with a
remote. Next to him is his daughter Sasha, holding a
guitar and randomly strumming it. On the row in front of them, Katya sits,
turning to her father.
Katya: “Did you have to pause it?”
Mr. D: “We’re told we couldn’t make a mess of the
place…yet…that’s next year though.”
Katya: “It was fine last time…”
Sasha: “Yeah, but we didn’t use their massive picture
board to watch old videos.”
Mr. D: “Much more is going to be on there again in a few years.”
Mr. D grabs whatever he dropped and looks up.
Mr. D: “Alright…”
Mr. D presses the button on the remote before we cut to a
shot of the outside of AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas before we see the
Rise to Greatness XVI logo come up on the screen.
“Rise to Greatness XVI, July 21, 2019, AT&T Stadium,
Arlington, Texas!”
The logo stays on the screen before it fades to black.
LEO vs. Xander
Valentine
The feedback over the PA
system, as if a jack is plugged into an amplifier rips through the arena. While
the noise attracts the attention of the crowd, spotlights, one after another
shine down onto the stage. The familiar chords of "The
Fade to Black" crackles on the sound system as smoke begins to
hover on the stage. A shadow stands behind a illuminated curtain, by this point the crowd
already caught up in a frenzy. The song's interlude cuts shorts as the lyrics
begin:
“Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free”
As the final line of lyrics play and the song revs up, Xander
bursts out behind the curtain onto the stage. He marches out onto the stage to
the top of the ramp. Boos starts to hail down on him, but there is some cheers
beneath. Behind him emerges a woman, wearing a coat with fur lining. As she
stops and positions herself behind Xander, some of
her pale flesh is revealed to show the very scandalous outfit beneath. As if
she doesn't exist, he stares down at the ring, regardless if occupied or
vacant. A serious glare is painted across his weathered face. He starts
marching deliberately down the ramp, continuing to stare at the ring.
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this Can t be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he 's gone
The song begins to fade out at this point. Xander is
at the bottom of the ring steps. He stomps the bottom step several times before
moving pass the steps towards the side of the ring. In a single bound, Xander leaps up onto the apron. He poses for a moment,
stretching his shoulders as he continues to look into the ring. He raises his
arm high into his air, as to promise victory. He garners another response from
the crowd. Meanwhile Artemis has left his side, instead moving towards the time
keeper to take the position of a watcher. She stands there as if no one else
exists but Xander and his opponent. Xander looks over at Artemis for a moment, for the first
time acknowledging her existence before leaping over the top rope. He steps
over to the corner and prepares for the battle ahead.
Sharper: “Xander
Valentine not in a good mood. He expected to be part of Tactical Warfare
later.”
Knots: “Sounds like Dark
Fantasy wanted that too. But he’s dealing with another thorn in his side, the
Network!”
“Hey Xander!”
We cut to a shot of the backstage area. Dante is there with Savali and Jack Parker of The Network. Behind them
stands LEO.
Dante: “You want to take us out? You want to destroy the Network?
You want to kick LEO’s ass? You’re welcome to try, you big dumb
oaf, but you’re gonna have to come back here to us!”
The referee shrugs his shoulders, not sure what to do. Xander
just steps out of the ring and starts marching down the aisle and through the
curtain to the backstage area.
Xander: “DANTE! LEO!”
Jack Parker jumps Xander from behind and starts
pummeling away with rights and lefts. Xander
shoves him off. Parker scrambles back to his feet but gets drilled with
a big boot. Xander picks him up and body slams
him on the hard concrete. Xander stomps away at
Jack Parker’s mid section until he is blindsided again,
this time by Savali. Savali
with straight rights and lefts but Xander quickly
snatches her by the throat and choke slams her on top of Jack!
Sharper: “The Network throwing
themselves at Xander! They’re making him run a
gauntlet here to get to LEO!”
Knots: “This has to be a trap.
We’ve seen it in the past with the Network and they’re trying to one now, but
this is a lot different! Xander’s not in the mood!”
Xander continues his march but he is driven face
first into the wall by Dante. Dante turns him around and starts laying
into him with rights and lefts. LEO stands not too far away, watching
calmly. Xander fights back with a knee to the
gut and then a huge uppercut. Xander gorilla
presses Dante up and throws him onto Jack and Savali,
knocking the two of them back down along with Dante!
Sharper: “My God! The strength!”
Knots: “Chaos backstage!”
Xander finally has his sights set on LEO! LEO
feigns a roundhouse kick, causing Xander to duck, then LEO follows it up with a backhand. Several European uppercuts and a roundhousekick
that staggers the bigger Xander against the wall.
Xander comes back with a hard shoulder block,
dropping him to the floor hard. LEO scrambles back to his feet but is met
by several upper cuts, jabs, and boxing style strikes. A discuss elbow
and then a running knee sends LEO down to the floor.
Sharper: “Just a fight now. LEO and Xander!”
Knots: “Look at LEO go. He’s
standing toe to toe with Xander!”
LEO with a European uppercut, a back hand, and a roundhouse kick. LEO
with a superkick a soccer kick to Xander’s
chest. LEO goes for a superkick but Xander catches the foot and pulls him into a choke slam.
Xander goes for a suplex
but LEO floats over and strikes a reverse ddt.
Xander sits up and LEO with a superkick to the
side of his head. LEO with a knee drop to the
side of his head. Xander starts to
muscle his way back up to his feet. LEO picks up a baseball bat nearby
and swings for the fences, drilling Xander on top of his
head and laying him out!
Sharper: “Oh God! A bat!
Baseball bat to Xander!”
Knots: “He’s out! This was a
mugging! Check his pockets!”
Sharper: “And look at LEO
calmly, as if he just finished his job for the night, walking off!”
LEO smirks as he straightens his clothes and then walks calmly away, leaving a
downed and perhaps unconscious Xander.
The arena lights turn dim. Over the speakers, the pulsing sound of "Shots
Fired" plays. A red flashing light settles on the ramp. This red light
stops and is replaced with multi colored strobe lights throughout the ramp and
the arena. There, a figure steps through the curtains, dressed in a black
tailor made suit with a white dress shirt underneath, a red and black tie,
matching dress pants, sleek black rubber gloves on his hands and a silver
dragon mask on his face. He steps forward, into the light, looking to the left,
then to his right. LEO makes his way down the aisle and towards the ring.
Sharper: “Come on! He’s now
coming to the ring!”
Knots: “LEO calmly heading
down. Xander’s out! He’s got to be hurt!”
LEO enters the ring. He calmly approaches the referee and speaks
something to him, we cannot pick up what it is, but the referee responds by
shrugging his shoulders. LEO repeats his request. The referee seems
to mouth something about Xander.
Sharper: “Xander
didn’t even wait for a countout or forfeit option. He
wanted to destroy. LEO now in the ring.”
Knots: “I think they’re saying
Xander can’t compete! Gotta have a concussion!”
While they exchange words an
SCW official comes down to the ring. The official goes over to speak to
the referee who nods his head and calls for the bell.
Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the referee has been informed that Xander Valentine cannot compete. Your
winner, LEO!”
Sharper: “Give me a break! A damn shame!”
Knots: “Don’t mess with the
Network! Even SCW’s Executioner isn’t safe!”
The crowd boos loudly as LEO
then pulls away from the official. He slowly walks to the ropes and steps
through. He just lets out a brief smirk as he walks to the back. The crowd
continues to boo as we cut away.
Backstage, Jessica Winters
stands with Mr. D outside of his office. The crowd cheers
seeing him. Mr. D nods and looks around.
Jessica: “Jessica Winters here
and Mr. D….boss…at least for the rest of the night…any way we can talk you out
of this.”
Mr. D: “No…I’ve made my
decision.”
Jessica: “Then tonight, we’re
going to see four teams fight in the Tactical Warfare. Fate
of the company. Do you have a favourite?”
Mr. D: “I’m not going to
answer that. Instead, all I’m going to say is that I am going to do what I can
to make sure this ends in the ring and is decided by the competitors
themselves. All of the teams are going to be placed in one of four locker
rooms. They will be guarded and locked. I know fire and safety won’t be happy,
but I’m not going to have some people running around and attacking people. Not
after what we saw with the Network and Xander just
moments ago. They will be only allowed out for the coin flips and
afterward…when their competitor is allowed to come to the ring. They’ll be
escorted to the tunnel.”
Mr. D pauses.
Mr. D: “There will be no
controversy in this one. It will be decided in those rings and in that cage.
And whoever wins, if it’s my daughters, they’ll come to the front office
tomorrow. If it’s Beauty Factory or Wonderland, a representative can meet with
the board to determine and start the vetting process for their representative.
SCW will change. But change can be good. I’m going to have to learn that
myself.”
Jessica: “Well please don’t be
a stranger.”
Mr. D smiles.
Mr. D: “I’ll always be
watching one way or another.”
Jessica: “Thank you for your
time and your leadership.”
Mr. D: “You’re welcome.”
Jessica: “Back to the ring.”
We cut away.
Ruby Amarant
vs. Abigail Lindsay
“The Twilight In Your Eyes”
begins to play, the haunting melody overtaking the arena as the lights dim and
ruby red lighting settles on the stage. Ruby Amarant
slowly walks out onto the stage, her eyes slowly roaming over the fans with a
cold, emotionless look.
Phillips: “Now making her way to the ring, from Phoenix, Arizona.... she is
Ruby Amarant!”
Slowly Ruby begins to make her way down to the ring, not paying any mind to the
fans even if some of them share their appreciation for the beautiful figure walking
past their gaze. She slides into the ring and slowly rises to her feet, a smirk
beginning to form on her lips as the lights return to normal. She then looks
back and forth between the two rings, and the official gestures to her that the
one she is currently standing in is the legal one. Ruby nods.
Sharper: “Ruby seems ready to play, despite knowing that she is not the person
her opponent tonight, Abigail Lindsay, wants to fight.”
Knots: “Both of these women are into mind games, this one is
gonna be an experience.”
A loud purrrrrrrrrring engine can be heard from
somewhere in the arena. The chorus of "Wreak Havoc" by Skylar Grey
begins the play. Suddenly, a motorcycle burst from backstage. It stops at the
top of the ramp, the person driving the motorcycle
briefly takes off her helmet, revealing herself to be Abigail Lindsay.
Phillips: “And her opponent.... from Los Angeles, California, Abigail Lindsay!
Abigail places the helmet back on and drives down to the ringside area. She
circles the two rings, the bike then comes to a halt next to the ring Ruby is
standing in. Abigail slides off, takes off her helmet, setting it on the seat.
She hops on the apron, proving how flexible she is she lifts one leg off, then drops down in a full split. she
slides under the bottom rope. Getting to her feet, Abigail then smirks at Ruby,
cracking her fingers.
Knots: “Uh oh, Abigail has that look.”
Sharper: “What look?”
Knots: “The one that says, “it's playtime.””
The bell rings. The women circle each other a bit, each looking for an opening.
Ruby lunges, Abigail steps back. They circle a bit more,
Abigail goes for a lock up, Ruby side steps. Abigail runs the ropes and as Ruby
turns, grabs her arm and spins her around into a hammerlock. Ruby leans over
though and almost immediately flips Abigail over her back, breaking the hold.
Abigail hops to her feet. Ruby nails her with a forearm. Abigail steps back,
and Ruby hits another. She goes for a third, but Abigail blocks it, grabbing
her arm and taking her down with an arm drag. Ruby rolls through and gets back
to her feet. The two stare each other down as the crowd cheers.
Sharper: “Quick start here, both women looking for an
early advantage.”
Knots: “And neither getting it.”
Abigail cracks her fingers again, smirking. Ruby circles her, Abigail turning
to keep facing her as she does. Suddenly, Ruby lunges low towards Abigail's
knees. Abi can't sidestep in time and Ruby takes her down. She mounts her and
throws a few lefts and rights. Abigail covers up, blocking about half the
shots. The official comes over and warns Ruby. She gets up, her hands up.
Abigail gets to her feet, scowling. She then runs at Ruby and connects with a
spinning heel kick. Ruby backs into the ropes. Abigail follows up with a
clothesline. Ruby goes over the top rope, getting tangled in the top rope of
the other ring, and falling between both sets, landing on the aprons of both
rings. Abigail then grabs the top rope and uses them to aid in a stiff baseball
slide into Ruby's ribs. Ruby rolls into the other ring, holding her side.
Abigail steps through the ropes and pulls Ruby up, as the official starts
counting. (1)
Sharper: “Abigail using tonight's ring set up to her advantage, and the gloves
are off now.”
Knots: “Ruby the underdog here as far as ring experience,
and that may end up the determining factor.”
Sharper: “Remember folks, only one of those rings is
the legal ring. Those women may as well be on the floor right now.”
Abigail gets Ruby to her feet, and whips her across the ring. (2) On the
rebound Abi puts her boot up to kick Ruby in the gut, but Ruby catches her
foot. (3) She then shoves Abi backwards by her leg, knocking her to the mat.
(4) Ruby springs off the middle rope with a moonsault
and makes a cover. But they are in the wrong ring. Instead of counting a pin,
the official just shakes his head, and continues his count-out count. (5) Ruby
sits up, swearing to herself. She steps through the ropes into the other ring.
(6) Abigail sits up, then goes back down to roll under
the ropes back into the other, legal, ring.
Sharper: “Some of Ruby's inexperience showing there, she momentarily forgot
only one ring counts.”
Knots: “Could have been a costly mistake if either or both of them got counted
out. Mini-Ravyn should know better!”
Sharper: “Stop it.”
Abigail is back to her feet. Ruby grabs her arm and tries to send her across,
but Abigail counters, and throws Ruby into the corner instead. She follows with
a running knee to the ribs. Ruby holds her side, leaning forward a bit. Abigail
grabs her chin and makes her stand straight, before slapping her across the
face! The crowd oohs. Ruby holds her cheek, glaring. Abi steps back, and
spreads her arms out wide.
Abigail: “Come on, Baby Ravyn! Is that all you got?”
Ruby steps out of the corner, looking for a clothesline. Abigail steps aside,
and Ruby spins out. Abigail turns to face her, and Ruby nails the clothesline
this time. Abigail hits her back, but rolls through and gets right back up. She
smirks, then runs at Ruby, tackling her back into the
corner. Ruby hits the turnbuckles hard. Abigail backs up a step, then drills another knee strike into Ruby's ribs.
Sharper: “Abigail Lindsay in full control here, reminding everyone that even
though she likes to play games, she's a serious fighter too. Former
World Champion in IWC.”
Knots: “May have been some time ago, but she can clearly still get it done, as
Ruby is finding out.”
Abigail goes for another, but Ruby gets her own knee up, blocking it. She then elbows
Abigail in the face. Abi steps back. Ruby nails a forearm, then another, then
grabs Abigail and drops her with a snap suplex. The
crowd oohs. Ruby makes a cover.
1!
2!
Abigail kicks out. Both women get to their feet. Ruby grabs Abigail's arm and sends
her across. Abigail though grabs the top rope, halting her momentum. Ruby
doesn't care, she runs across and aims for a running
clothesline. Abigail drops down and pulls the rope with her, and Ruby tumbles
over. She keeps her balance though, grabbing the rope herself and staying on
the apron. She then knees Abigail in the side, and Abi lets go of the rope,
falling to the mat. She rolls away from the apron. Ruby looks around, then goes
to the corner, on the second rope. As Abigail gets to her feet, looking to see
where Ruby went, Ruby leaps and takes Abigail down with a hurricanrana!
The crowd ohhs again, and Ruby tries to make a cover,
but Abigail rolls through and makes a cover with a rollup instead.
1!
2!
Ruby kicks out and rolls through. Abigail smirks as they both get up.
Sharper: “Close call for Ruby there, Abigail using the momentum from that
leaping 'rana to counter the pin attempt.”
Knots: “More of the experience difference showing there. Great
awareness by Abigail.”
Ruby frowns, and comes at Abigail with a flurry of strikes, landing shots to
the jaw, chest, and abdomen. Abigail backs away, covering up. She eventually
blocks one strike and throws a jab then an eye poke that the official doesn't
catch. Ruby backs away, holding her face. The official checks on her as Abigail
smirks. Ruby nods, and the official steps back. Abigail wastes no time in
grabbing Ruby, sending her across the ring. Ruby grabs the ropes and hurtles
over rather than bouncing off, into the other ring. Abigail runs and dives over
both sets of ropes, taking Ruby out! The crowd roars. The official starts
counting. (1)
Sharper: “And back into the second ring. I thought Ruby learned her lesson the
last time.”
Knots: “I don't know, look at that smirk on her face, I think she knows exactly
what she's doing.”
Sharper: “Maybe so, looks like Abigail landed a little awkward on her shoulder
there.”
Abigail grabs at her shoulder as she starts to sit up. (2) Ruby rolls away from
Abigail a bit, holding her back from the hard landing, but with the smirk Knots
mentioned. (3) Abigail starts to get to her feet, but Ruby scrambles over, and
grabs Abi's arm, the shoulder she landed on, and locks in a Fujiwara armbar! Abigail yells in pain. (4) Ruby pulls back harder,
as Abigail fights her way to the ropes, laying one foot across. (5) The crowd
roars as she grabs the ropes. Ruby smirks as all the official can do though is
keep counting, the ring isn't legal. (6) Abigail screams in frustration,
continuing to pull back, getting under the ropes and her feet into the correct
ring. But Ruby is still in the other ring. (7) Abigail pulls on the bottom rope
of the legal ring with her free arm and manages to pull free from Ruby's grip.
She rolls into the legal ring, holding her shoulder. (8) Ruby sits up,
smirking, before then rolling to the legal ring as well. The official stops
counting, and Ruby gets to her feet.
Sharper: “Looks like you were right Jon, Ruby used all the time she had with
that armbar, pulling on that shoulder Abigail
possibly injured with that dive.”
Knots: “Mini-Ravyn, what'd I say? Abigail wants her
attention, but she has to contend with Ruby for the moment. All her taunting
seems to be coming back to bite her in the ass.”
Ruby goes over to Abigail and stomps on her shoulder. Abi yells in pain. Ruby
goes for another stomp, but Abigail grabs her ankle, and pulls her down. Ruby faceplants. Abigail mounts
her back and tries to apply a cobra clutch, but her shoulder gives out and she
can't lock the hold in. Ruby pushes up with her arms, bucking Abi off. Abi
starts to get up, but Ruby is faster. She kicks Abigail in the shoulder.
Abigail goes back down, holding the arm. Ruby pulls Abigail up, and then
quickly drops her with the Ruby Cutter! The crowd oohs as Ruby makes the cover.
1!
2!
3!
Abigail gets her good shoulder up a second too late. Ruby rolls off and gets up
as Abigail turns to her side, holding her arm.
Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall.... Ruby Amarant!”
Sharper: “Abigail threw all of her experience at Ruby, employing some tricks
even, but Ruby found a way to play games right back and picked up the huge win
here,”
Knots: “Some would call this an upset, a newcomer over a woman who's held a
World Championship. Abigail may not have Ravyn
Taylor's attention, but I bet Ruby Amarant does,
after that stunt in the non-legal ring”
Sharper: “That's right, she used it to her advantage to weaken Abigail's
shoulder and it played a role in the outcome. No doubt. I do hope Abigail isn't
seriously injured though.”
The official raises Ruby's arm as Abigail stirs. She sits up, rolling her
shoulder some, testing it, while shaking her head.
Knots: “She's got some movement, should be okay with some ice I would think.”
Sharper: “Meanwhile Ruby has a ton of momentum after picking up this huge win.”
Backstage, we see Sienna Swann
smiling as Laura Steinbeck looks around. Laura and Paris Truelove lean back
with LEO as Ikiro stands right in front of Sienna,
ready to serve.
Sienna: “Already going well. One issue taken care of.”
Paris: “Told you LEO would
take care of it.”
LEO nods.
London: “One monster gone. One possible change.”
Sienna: “So no surprises
except Kim and she’ll explode on them over us.”
Bree: “Don’t worry. We’re all
looking forward to this. This ends all of the games. We get EVERY opportunity
we’ve earned.”
Sienna: “Oh don’t worry.
That’ll be immediate. Just thinking about how much I want to play with Syren or Ravyn or Kennedy-“
Andrew: “Or Regan?”
Dustin Adams is then seen as
the camera turns as Andrew walks up.
Andrew: “You know you’re in
there with her.”
Sienna: “And I’ll deal with
her. We’ve got the chance to get exactly what we want.”
Bree: “I still can’t believe D
even allowed this. Whatever…best decision he’s ever made.”
Andrew: “You’re telling me.”
Sienna: “Damn right.”
Laura smiles.
Sienna: “And Ikiro…”
Ikiro: “Yes Angel?”
Sienna: “You make sure
everyone gets out of our way when we’re all in there.”
Ikiro: “Of course. Whatever you want.”
Sienna smiles.
Laura: “Sienna…this will make
you the name in entertainment.”
Sienna: “Make the Beauty
Factory that.”
Laura smiles as the crowd boos
and we cut away.
Christy Matthews vs. Cassidy
Carter
The lights dim in the arena as
the screens all cut to black and for a few seconds and there’s nothing but the
reaction of the fans heard all around the arena. After a few moments the
opening “King of the World” by Porcelain and the Tramps hits the PA system as
spotlights begin to flick on and off around the arena. The fans boo loudly as
the camera pans through them all and back to the cheap seats in the back of the
arena where we see Christy Matthews standing on the guard rail with her arms
outstretched in an eerily familiar mock-crucifix pose. Her fists are taped, and
she looks more than ready for the task ahead. She’s wearing a red jacket the
hood pulled up over her head in a style similar to the classic fairy-tale. As
she jumps down from the guard rail the screens around the arena begin to
display familiar wording once more...
...E B D O N E N T E R T A I N M E N T P R E S E N T S...
...C H R I S T Y M A T T H E W S...
As she begins to push her way down to ringside, and security line the steps
down through the crowd, holding back the fans in the way, we see that she's
joined by her manager, Christopher Richter. Christy ignores every one of them
as she walks past them, focusing on the ring. She makes her way down to the
barricade, leaping over and begins climbing the outside of the turnbuckles,
standing on the middle rope, pulling down the hood of her jacket and striking
the mock-crucifix pose once more. As the second chorus of “King of the World”
hits Christy sings along with the lyrics, continuing to strike the crucifix
pose before finally leaping over the top rope and spinning around in the ring,
throwing her ring jacket to the outside and collapsing to a seated position in
the corner of the ring as the fans boo. She sits in the corner, looking out at
the fans occasionally as Richter collects her belongings from her corner and
stands on the outside of the ring nearby.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first,
hailing from Los Angeles, California…she is CHRISTY! MATTHEWS!”
The rifts to "Na na na" by My Chemical Romance begins to play throughout
the arena as the spoken intro opens up.
The future is bulletproof
The aftermath is secondary
It's time to do it now and do it loud
Killjoys, Make some noise!
Strobe lights begin flashing between different shades of blue, green and red in
rapid succession as Cassidy Carter, along with Ace Marshall, steps out to a
barrage of boos. She smiles broadly while stepping in a rhythm around the stage
to match the beat as her one woman rave show continues. She throws one arm up
over her chest while thrusting the other to the side before bowing smugly
before the booing masses.
Love, gimme love, gimme
love
I don't need it, but I'll take what I want from your heart
And I'll keep it in a bag, in a box
Put an X on the floor
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more
Shut up and sing it with me
She makes her way down the ramp,a
s Ace follows, now in full spirits, not really focusing on anything. Her arrogance and lack of real concern or worries showing in
spades. She reaches the apron before pulling herself up using the bottom
rope for support. Standing along it she raises her head up to the rafters while
leaning fully into the top rope. She sways her hips
seductively before flipping over the top rope, landing inside the ring before
turning and throwing her arms up and walking toward the center of the ring, dancing
a bit in a straight line to her own theme song. Her self admiration and confidence continuing to be on full
display for the world to grovel in. She raises her arms further up, now
placing her hands on the back of her head before making her way to the corner.
Stepping up onto the second rope she sits on the top turnbuckle before laying back across the top rope, propping her legs crossed
casually over the other side. She appears to be becoming slightly impatient now
in her comfortable spot waiting for this ordeal to begin and be over with.
Phillips: “And her opponent, from Las Vegas, Nevada…she is the Duchess of
Debauchery…she is CASSIDY! CARTER!”
Sharper: “Cassidy Carter taking on Christy Matthews in our next contest. It’s a
match that has been brewing since Making Things Right when Christy helped Dark
Fantasy seal the World title for Syren.”
Knots: “Yep. That’s how I remember it. With these two, I think it is a good
idea we have two rings. I don’t think one is enough to contain them. The S to
the hit is about to hit the fan.”
The ref calls for the bell. Cassidy charges towards Christy, only for Christy
to grab at Cassidy’s legs, taking her down to the mat. Christy begins to rain
down with punches. Cassidy manages to roll over, reversing her position and
ending up on top of Christy. Cassidy grabs Christy by the hair and begins
slamming her head against the mat, causing the ref to intervene, backing
Cassidy away from Christy. Cassidy is heard laughing manically.
Christy is shown rolling over and pushing herself to her feet. Cassidy breaks
away from the referee, rolling Christy up from behind. The ref begins the
count.

Cassidy smirks and bows at the crowd, before going to grab Christy by the hair
once again. Christy however manages to land a spinning back elbow. Cassidy
stumbles back before Christy grabs her and throws her into the corner. Christy
begins stomping Cassidy in the corner.
Sharper: “These two don’t seem interested in having a wrestling match. They
want to destroy each other.”
Knots: “With Tactical Warfare later tonight, this could just be a sign of
things to come.”
Sharper: “I’m afraid you’re right.”
Christy backs away, looking at the crowd, earning some boos. Christy waves off
the fans before turning and charging at the fallen Cassidy. Christy goes for a
running knee, but Cassidy rolls out of the way just in time. Christy hits the
corner hard. Cassidy gets to her feet and grabs Christy, pulling her down into
a tree of woe. Cassidy then climbs to the top rope, using Christy for an extra
boost.
Knots: “Christy being polite, helping Cassidy to the top.”
Cassidy looks down and smirks at Cassidy.
Sharper: “Cassidy looks like she has evil intentions.”
Cassidy then jumps off of the top rope, landing a double foot stomp onto
Christy. Christy slowly slumps to the mat before Cassidy gets to her feet and
drags her to the center of the ring. Cassidy hooks the leg.

against the ropes. Christy charges at her, taking her over the ropes with a
running clothesline. Cassidy lands on the apron before rolling into the second
ring under the bottom rope. Christy climbs to the top rope, but Cassidy grabs
the rope, causing Christy to lose her balance and fall into the second ring.
Knots: “I knew I was right. One ring wasn’t enough.”
Sharper: “Being in the second ring is basically being on the outside. If these
two aren’t careful they can be counted out.”
Ref: “1! 2! 3!”
Cassidy and Christy are shown brawling, exchanging punches as they roll around
on the mat. Ace and Christopher are shown getting into the second ring as well.
Ref: “4! 5! 6!”
Ace and Christopher begin grabbing at Cassidy and Christy, trying to pull them
apart. Ace lets Cassidy go before shoving Christopher to the mat and shrugging
with a smirk. Christopher gets to his feet and begins jawing with Ace.
Ref: “7! 8!”
Ace looks out at the crowd then at Cassidy and Christy, who are still brawling
on the mat. Ace then grabs Christopher and drops him with the Ace’s Wild!
Ref: “9! 10!”
The ref calls for the bell before climbing into the second ring, going to pull
Christy and Cassidy apart. Ace gets in front of the ref. The ref tries to go
around Ace, but Ace gets in front of him again.
Sharper: “Well this match has been thrown out. The ref is trying to regain
order, but Ace Marshall is doing all that he can to
keep that from happening.”
Knots: “I don’t think any of us are surprised.”
More refs as well as the security team led by Dean Black are shown racing down
from the back. Ace runs over and grabs Cassidy, pulling her underneath one of
the bottom ropes, just as security and the refs slide into the ring. The cameras shown Christy sitting up and glaring at Cassidy, who
is shown walking up the ramp with Ace, smirking before the cameras cut away.
Backstage, we see Blake Mason
standing with Jessica Winters in the backstage area. The
crowd cheers seeing him.
Jessica: “Jessica Winters here
with Blake Mason and Blake, we know Chris Cannon is going to be here after a
week that saw him miss Breakdown. This is a match of
great importance to you and him. All about closure and going back two and a
half years when you piledrove him.”
Mason looks down.
Jessica: “Are you ready for
what he may give you?”
Blake: “Whatever he has to
give me, I’m going to have to be ready for. He deserves this match. This
opportunity and on top of that, I asked for one major change. I went to Mr. D
and asked him to make this no disqualification. I don’t want Chris getting
cheated out of this again. I won’t be getting fired. He’s fought back from
injury. We’ve managed to at least have a tacit respect. And tonight, I want him
to get his opportunity for what he wants.”
Jessica: “And you?”
Blake sighs.
Blake: “I know he wants me to
compete. And so I’m going to. And we’ll see what awaits
after. Because this is facing Chris Cannon. Facing Superman. And if I need to be his kryptonite, I will
be. Because I know one thing about Chris. If I take it
easy on him, he’ll never forgive me.”
Jessica: “Thank you and good
luck tonight.”
Blake nods. He heads off.
Jessica: “Back to ringside.”
Manvel vs. Derek Adonis
KABLAAAAAAAAM!
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!
And there he is! Stepping out amidst spotlights of every colour of the rainbow
alongside Cookie the man’s outfit radiates light against a few blacklights slipped in, and he is completely oblivious to
his detractors, basking in the glow of the spotlight as he begins his sensual
stride towards the ring.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first,
accompanied to the ring by Cookie, he is The Man Mountain, Derek Adonis!”
If you’re so inclined, you should check out the lyrics to the song that Adonis
is entering to, because they really paint their own tapestry almost as well as
the man himself is able to, stopping at various points on his walk down towards
the ring to hit on some of the more attractive females in the area – without
caring about the potential of boyfriends, husbands or security. He’ll take
their hand, whisper sweet nothings to them (and, if you’ve seen girls at shows
put in this kind of embarrassing situation, these do the same as all of them –
and just laugh) and plant his lips ever so gently upon said hand before moving
farther down the ramp.
As the chorus comes around, Adonis steps up the ramp, taking each step with
added emphasis. He gets onto the apron and after winking at a particularly
friendly female (probably the most receptive to advances of earlier), pulls
himself through the ropes. He gyrates just a little bit in the ring (it’s
better than his twerking – trust me) as his music fades, Cookie gets in his corner.
Sharper: “We have so many personal matches tonight,
this one here is probably the most. There is bad blood between these two men
and they have already faced each other once, Manvel was disqualified. Now they
will face one more time and Derek wants revenge. Manvel stumbled into this
match losing the TV title last week but with Scott Burnside and Cupcake, it
could make the difference.”
Knots: “I was a recipient of Manvel’s “Mansauce” and
it was terrible. The KABLAMasutra changed all our
lives, Sharper. That was pure jealousy by Manvel. Bottom line, he attacked me
because Adonis is legit and Manvel was the sidekick, he can’t stand that.”
“Behind The Stars” by Mercy Drive begins to play throughout the arena….
Manvel suddenly appears on the Tron as he hops out and poses at the
entranceway. Scott Burnside walks behind him as does the gorgeous and sultry
Cupcake. Manvel starts making his way down to the ring led by Cupcake, Scott
Burnside follows behind. Manvel taunts all of the fans heading to the ring, he
even poses in front of some, most of them try to slap
the greaser wrestler who wears more body oil than a 2-pound Chicken Fryer.
Phillips: “His opponent, hails from Orlando, Fl.!
Weighing in at 225 lnbs, accompanied to the ring by
Scott Burnside and Cupcake, he is the “Human MAntipede”
Manvel!”
Manvel hops around excited as he gets booed. Cupcake
opens the ropes for him as Scott Burnside starts to jaw with Cookie who doesn’t
even pay him attention.
He slides into the ring literally and gets up, he poses and hops on to the
second turnbuckle as the crowd boos and cheers. He hops back down and starts to
talk to the referee while showing off his MANLy abs
and Mantastic physique….
Waiting for the match to start as he walks up to Adonis. Cupcake slips out of
the ring and walks over to her sister, they both start to talk down to each
other….
Sharper: “And it has already started, Manvel and Adonis are face to face,
Cookie and Cupcake are jaw jacking each other and Scott Burnside is loving
Manvel glistening in the lights from all the oil on his body.”
Knots: “The guy is a walking lube job, and this is starting now, Sharper!”
Adonis stares at Manvel who starts to pose and point at Derek, he does nothing
and let’s Manvel run his mouth for a few moments before he finally floors him
with a huge right, the crowd cheers as Manvel scurries to the corner where he
tells the referee to back him off. The ref tells Adonis to back off some,
Manvel yells at him as he stands up, holding his jaw. Manvel walks around the
ring as Adonis tells him to come on, Manvel goes to lock up but instead drops
and rolls out of the ring, he walks around as Cookie and Scott check his face….
Sharper: “Manvel is stalling.”
Knots: “Yes he is, he doesn’t want to get in the ring with Adonis, he knows he’s outmatched.”
The referee starts to count. (1) Manvel is still being checked on, (2) Cupcake starts to massage his neck while Scott
checks his face, Adonis and Cookie yell at him to get back in the ring. (3)
Manvel points back to the ring and tells Adonis to back off, (4) Manvel goes
back to being attended to when suddenly Adonis rolls out of the ring, Cupcake
turns and Cookie cuts her off, the two push each other while Adonis grabs
Manvel, (5) Scott backs off as Adonis drills Manvel with another hard right and
another, backing off the Lubed-Up Assassin. (6) Manvel tries to get away, but
Adonis grabs him and slams his head into the apron. (7) Adonis then throws
Manvel back in the ring breaking the count, he goes to roll in as Manvel backs
up….
Adonis looks out at the crowd as the chair KABLAM! Adonis gets right up to
Manvel who grans him by the waist and pulls him into the turnbuckle. The crowd
boos as Adonis falls back right into a School Boy by Manvel…

out but Adonis grabs him by the tights, he pulls him back in, he gets up to his

a sound strategy.”

now he finds himself down but not out. Come on Cookie, be supportive!”
The crowd chants “KABLAM!” the cheer is led by Cookie who slams the mat trying
to encourage Adonis to get back up. Manvel tells her to shut up, Cupcake tells
Manvel to finish it. He nods and kicks Adonis a few times before he climbs to
the top rope, Manvel poses as the fans boo before he jumps with a huge Frog
Splash, but Adonis gets his knees up! The crowd roars as Manvel flips over

Adonis wastes no time, he picks up Manvel for a Suplex,
a stalling suplex ready to drop him into a Brainbuster but Manvel knees him on the top of his head, he
falls behind hitting Adonis with the Backcracker and
right into the Damascus Lock, the Human Mantipede!
Adonis screams in pain as the referee asks him if he wants to quit, Adonis
screams no, Manvel yell at him to “Quit Daddy”!
Sharper: “Adonis is in a lot of trouble and Manvel is pulling back hard!”
Knots: “Manvel has it locked, I don’t know Sharper! This entire arena is

weird.”

been through. Just a bit. And we’re going to locked in these rooms.”

The crowd roars as we cut
away.
Alistaire Allocco vs. Kellen Jeffries
Rise!!!!
Look deep into his eyes!
Rise!!!!
Look deep into his eyes, that's where the fire lies!
The spotlights shine forth from the stage, bathing the entire arena in blinding
white lights corresponding with a verse of “Eyes Like
Fire” by Collision of Innocence. A figure stands in front of the curtains, his
arms are extended horizontally, and his legs spread. His back is turned to the
audience. As the bright lights starts to dim, you can tell the man is wearing
pure white tights. A blood red sleeveless coat stretching
from his defined torso down to his equally bright white boots. Alistaire kicks out his leg to turn to face the crowd as
the chorus of his theme kicks in:
Descending on a cloud, For all the world to see
Dressed in white with strength and majesty
Robe dripping red with eyes like fire
Sword held up high behold the white horse rider
Cries of the martyrs he has heard your voices
Now the day nears they will pay for their choices
Look up until the day and don't ever be afraid
For vengeance isn't yours, In time they will face their grave
He begins to walk down the ramp with his dark eyes staring intently upon the
ring before him. He marches down with purpose, ignoring the fans on either side
of him. He stops at the bottom of the ramp for a moment, before launching
forward, sliding into the ring.
Descending on a cloud, For all the world to see
Dressed in white with strength and majesty
Robe dripping red with eyes like fire
Sword held up high behold the white horse
rider
Once in the ring, he discards his coat by tossing it to the referee. He’s in
the center of the ring, he’s hops up and down,
switching his weight behind his feet as he stands. As the song begins to fade
out, Alistaire stares at his goal.
I can hear it, I can hear it, I can hear it now
I can feel it, I can feel it, I can feel it now
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first,
from Rochester, New York…he is…ALISTAIRE! ALLOCCO!!!”
Sharper: “Alistaire Allocco out first for our next
contest. He will be taking on SCW newcomer and Trios Tournament winner, Kellen
Jeffries.”
Knots: “This will be a strong mesh of different styles. I’m looking forward to
it.”
"The Authority Song" by John Mellencamp
hits the speakers and Kellen Jeffries comes out from the back, with Amber
Sloane accompanying him, and heads to the ring. The crowd reaction is mixed as
Kellen and Amber walk side by side down the ramp. Kellen looks at the crowd
before focusing on the ring. He then runs and slides in underneath the bottom
rope, slowly rising to his feet, locking eyes with Allocco.
Phillips: “And his opponent, accompanied by Amber Sloane, residing in New York
City, New York…he is…KELLEN! JEFFRIES!!!
The ref calls for the bell as Allocco goes for a tie up, but Kellen immediately
unloads with right hands, backing Allocco into the ropes. Kellen whips Allocco
to the other side and Kellen charges, and connecting with a running
clothesline.

Kellen is shown reaching for the ropes as Allocco pulls back, applying more
pressure. The ref checks on Kellen who shakes his head no.
Sharper: “The ref asking Kellen if he wants to submit, but he refuses. He is
still reaching for those ropes, hoping to break the hold.”
Kellen goes to the reach for the ropes, but Allocco breaks the hold. He grabs

it, gets behind Kellen taking him down with a German suplex.

Sharper: “It was one of those matches that could have gone either way, but
Allocco manages to pull off the victory here tonight.”
Alistaire Allocco continues to enjoy
his celebration as we then cut to the Retribution logo. A still of Chris Cannon
vs. Blake Mason comes up on the screen.
Sharper: “Well from Alistaire Allocco and his wrestling, to Chris Cannon and
Blake Mason – the match for closure.”
Knots: “Years in the making
and it happens next!”
A recap video plays showing
the history between Chris Cannon and Blake Mason.
Chris Cannon vs. Blake Mason
"The Memory Remains"
by Metallica starts to play. Blake Mason simply walks through the curtain. He
pauses momentarily at the top of the ramp. The crowd cheers him a bit.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled in ring one, for onefall, has a
thirty minute time limit and is no disqualification! First, from Boston,
Massachusetts, he is Blake Mason!”
Not reacting to the reaction
the crowd is giving him, Blake heads to the ring. Reaching the steel steps, he
walks up them, on to the apron, steps into the ring. Without the normal
theatrics that have defined him over the past few years, Blake opts to lean
against the turnbuckle, the expression on his face, stoic. He remains there
until the match starts.
Sharper: “You heard it right.
No disqualification. A late change to this match and all
because Blake Mason asked for it. He said he wanted to make sure that
Chris Cannon had every opportunity to get his closure.”
Knots: “He could be however
setting himself up for failure. Chris Cannon has wanted this. He wasn’t at
Breakdown. Who knows what his frame of mind is? And this helps him!”
The big screen above the
entrance springs into life as the lights darken, the only image we see is that
of a glistening perfect world logo. We then hear a woman’s voice that sounds a
lot like Kelcey Wallace over the P. A System next as
she addresses the arena.
“Ladies and Gentleman, Introducing...”
.CHRIS CANNON.
The opening guitar to “Prometheus” by Audio Machine hit’s over the P.A system
next with an explosion of sound. There’s a sudden pause and then a spotlight
shines down onto the stage where we see Chris Cannon, he stands proudly on the
stage with an aura of confidence about him.
Phillips: “His opponent, from London, England by way of Hermosa Beach,
California, he is Chris Cannon!”
The crowd cheers for the British superstar as he begins to walk down towards
the ring with a confident stride in his step. Once at the bottom of the ramp
Cannon then slides into the ring and then climbs the nearest turnbuckle and
then raises his arm above his head holding a fist. He looks down for a moment,
taking a deep breath. He hops down. His music fades out as the crowd roars.
Sharper: “Chris Cannon here. Focused. You saw the heave in the chest. The
deep breath.”
Knots: “So much pressure on
him right now. And well, here we go.”
Sharper: “And we should note
that it is no disqualification, but pinfalls need to
happen in that ring. Ring one.”
Chris and Blake look at one
another before the bell sounds. The crowd roars. Blake extends his arms and
looks at Chris, saying something to him. Chris responds to pointing at him and
telling him to come at him. Blake nods and looks out, taking a deep breath
himself, before he lunges and runs at Chris. He nails him with a hard right and
then another and another. Chris falls into the corner. Blake climbs up to the
middle turnbuckle and nails Chris with a hard right and then another and another
before Chris shoves him off. Blake hits the mat and rolls through. He gets up
and runs at Chris and climbs up again, nailing him with a hard right before
Chris shoves him off again. Blake rolls through and gets up and Chris moves out
and blocks another hard right and nails Blake with a hard right. Blake attempts
another shot before Chris nails him with another one. Chris kicks him in the
ribs and turns runs him into the corner, driving him face first into the top
turnbuckle.
Sharper: “Chris firing back after
Blake did exactly what Chris wanted, took the fight to
him.”
Knots: “Chris took what he had
and now he’s firing back.”
Blake turns and Chris nails
him with a hard right and then a left to the ribs before a hard right to the
jaw. He grabs Blake and whips him hard across the ring. Blake hits the corner
and staggers out and Chris launches him off the rebound and hits a back body
drop. Blake rolls over. He turns and Chris nails him with a hard right. Blake
falls into the ropes. Chris runs at him and clotheslines him up and over to the
top rope. Blake lands awkwardly before dumping into the area between the rings.
Chris steps out and grabs him and nails him with a hard right. Blake stumbles
back and over to the corners of the two rings.
Sharper: “Chris right after
Blake. Into that space between the rings.”
Knots: “Blake trying to cover
up. Going to have to do more. There’s years of
frustration coming out here!”
Chris follows and kicks him in
the ribs. Blake covers his head and Chris nails him with a hard right to the
side of Blake’s head and then a left to the ribs. He grabs Blake. He then hooks
him up. He goes for a vertical suplex, but Blake
shifts his weight and lands into the first ring. Chris turns and goes to grab
Blake, but Blake nails him with a hard right. Chris falls to the ropes of the
second ring before he steps up and Blake jumps up and hits a dropkick to the
jaw. Chris falls back and rolls through the ropes and into the second ring.
Sharper: “Huge dropkick. Blake buying himself some space and getting Chris into that other
ring.”
Knots: “Ref’s not counting.
What’s going on?”
Sharper: “I guess he’s going
to let it go. With the history leading into this match.”
Blake then steps through the
ropes and then into the second ring. Chris gets up and Blake hits another
dropkick. Chris hits the mat. He slowly gets up and Blake scoops him up and
slams him down. Blake then hits a fist drop. He then grabs Chris and drags him
up. He starts to pull him back to the ropes to send him back into the first ring,
but Chris counters by hoisting Blake up and hitting a high angle back suplex. Blake rolls over in pain. Chris starts to get up.
Blake rolls over and gets up and moves to the ropes and Chris runs at him and
clotheslines him up and over the top rope to the floor. The
crowd ohs. Chris drops down and rolls to the
floor.
Sharper: “From ring two to the
floor now.”
Knots: “Chris just doing
whatever he can do to keep the pressure on. He wants Blake to come at him. He’s
coming right for him.”
Blake starts to get up and
Chris nails him in the ribs with a hard right and then a hard left before
nailing him with a hard right. He then looks around before hooking Blake up. He
sets up for a vertical suplex. Blake however blocks
it. Chris tries a second time and Blake blocks it again before Blake hoists
Chris up and throws him back with a vertical suplex
of his own. Chris rolls over grimacing in pain. The crowd gives a mixed
reaction to the suplex. Blake slowly gets up.
Sharper: “Blake counters and
Chris hitting with a thud on the floor.”
Knots: “That’s like landing on
your carpeted basement with underlayment. It’s not going to do much except
absorb some impact, but it hurts like a son of a bitch.”
Sharper: “Please don’t try
that at home.”
Knots: “Unless you’re an idiot,
then it’s natural selection!”
Blake turns and grabs Chris.
He pulls him up and then looks around before scooping him up and slamming him
on the mats again. Chris winces again.
Knots: “Well, Blake’s figured
it out.”
Sharper: “He still wants to
win. And add to the fact that if he took it easy, that’s more disrespect to
Chris.”
Chris turns and Blake stomps
him in the back and then again. He grabs him and pulls him up before looking
around and then hooking his arm and whipping him hard into the steel steps. The
top half bowls over and Chris falls down to the mats. Blake looks out and
sighs, clearly not enjoying this, but then turning and refocusing. He goes over
to Chris and drags him up. He then turns and rolls him into the ring. Blake
slides in after. Chris starts to get up and Blake pushes him over and to the
mat and goes for the pin.

Chris kicks out. Blake looks
up and gets up. Chris rolls over and starts to get up. Blake walks over and
kicks him in the ribs. He then whips him into the ropes. Chris bounces off and
Blake hits a snap powerslam. He then hooks the leg.

Chris kicks out again. Blake
looks at him and grabs him by the hair. He then knees him in the ribs. Chris
falls into the corner.
Sharper: “Blake taking
advantage of the damage on the floor.”
Knots: “You can tell he’s
conflicted, but this is what Chris wants.”
Chris winces as Blake walks
over and kicks him in the ribs. He then whips him across the ring. Chris hits
the corner. Blake runs after and jumps up for a running dropkick, but Chris
moves out of the way. Blake hits the top rope and falls down and rolls through.
He staggers to his feet and Chris kicks him in the ribs and hits a vertical suplex. He swivels his hips and drags him back up before
hoisting him up again for a vertical suplex and
hitting it. He then swivels his hips again and holds on. He drags him up and
hoists him up. He then holds him up and looks up as the crowd roars.
Sharper: “The strength! The power!”
Knots: “Maybe a brainbuster?”
Chris however instead steps
back, staggering back and into the ropes before letting go and dropping Blake
over the top rope and Blake falls down to the mats, hard on his hip. The crowd ohs and Blake rolls over. Chris leans against the ropes.
The crowd cheers mostly before some boos trickle in.
Sharper: “Dropping Blake over
the top rope. My God.”
Knots: “Well I think we know
what Chris is thinking about. Making sure Blake has something to remember what
he did to him by.”
Sharper: “Some fans taking
issue to the how, but most firmly behind Chris Cannon.”
Blake rolls over, wincing in
pain and Chris steps through the ropes. He then snaps at Blake to get up. Blake
grimaces and seems to oblige, pulling himself up. He then staggers forward as
Chris runs along the apron and hits a running kick to the face and chest of
Blake. Blake hits the mats hard. Chris then steps forward and drops down. He
then turns and walks over to Blake and grabs him. He drags him up and the
referee tells him to get back into the ring and Chris ignores him, instead
grabbing Blake and looking behind him before whipping Blake hard along the
ringside area and Blake goes into the other set of steel steps. The top half
bowls over and into the announce table, all from the impact. Blake falls over.
Sharper: “Jesus! The impact.”
Knots: “This is not a splatter
zone!”
Sharper: “Steel stairs
crashing into our table here. All from the impact of Blake
going into the top half!”
Blake stirs and Chris walks
over and grabs him and then scoops him up onto his shoulder as if going for a powerslam, but instead, Chris throws him forward and gives
him a snake eyes on the bottle half of the stairs. Blake rolls over. Chris then
stomps him in the face and then again and again. Chris looks around before
turning and grabbing the ring bell. He looks at it and looks around. The crowd
roars. Blake grabs at the barricade and starts to pull himself up and Chris turns and swings and
Blake ducks. Chris nearly hits a fan. He seemingly snaps out of things and
steps back, apologizing to the fan. Blake then suddenly grabs Chris from behind
and lifts him up for a back suplex before falling
back and driving Chris into the ringpost back first.
Chris falls over as the crowd boos.
Sharper: “Blake taking the
fight to Chris. He just knows Chris tried to decapitate him with the ring
bell.”
Knots: “Chris was apologizing
to the potential lawsuit he had for nearly taking out the fan and Blake took
advantage.”
Blake looks around and then
grabs Chris and drags him up. Chris grimaces and Blake rolls him into ring two.
Blake rolls in after him. Chris starts to get up and he swings at Blake, but
Blake blocks it and nails him with a hard right. He then kicks him in the ribs
before hoisting him up for a vertical suplex but into
his knee. Chris rolls over in pain. The crowd boos some more. Blake looks
around before turning and grabbing Chris and going for a pin for a moment
before realizing where he is. He then drags Chris up and Chris shoves him back.
Blake stumbles back and Chris turns and runs at Blake and
Chris goes for a spear, but Blake gets his knee up. Chris falls over. The crowd ohs. Blake then looks
around before grabbing him and starting to try and drag him over, but Chris
fights. Blake then turns and hooks him up in a cobra clutch before hitting a
cobra-clutch legsweep. The crowd boos.
Sharper: “Blake takes Chris
down again.”
Knots: “Chris is trying to
stop Blake from going back where he’s supposed to. The first
ring.”
Sharper: “I don’t know if
Chris had something in mind. The ring bell being part of it.”
Blake then pulls him up. He
looks around before hoisting him up onto his shoulders. He steps forward and
tries to drag him to the first ring, but Chris elbows him in the jaw and then
again and again. He drops down. He turns and hits a standing snapmare before holding on and finishing the London
Calling. The crowd cheers. Chris winces and rolls over. He then starts to get
up. Blake turns and stirs. He crawls toward the ropes and starts to pull
himself up. Chris looks at him and then runs at him and clotheslines him up and
over the top rope and Blake lands in front of the announce tables before
falling to the mats. Chris drops down to his knees. He takes a moment before
looking out, almost as if thinking about what he wanted to do.
Sharper: “Chris sends Blake
right back down in front of us.”
Knots: “He’s bringing him back
over here!”
Chris steps through to the
floor. Blake gets up and Chris then hoists him up onto his shoulders and turns
and hits the Lion’s Bite on the floor. Blake rolls over in pain. Chris turns
and looks around before starting to get up. He them looks
around and grabs the ring bell that he dropped earlier. Blake grabs at the
announce tables and starts to pull himself up. Chris holds the ring bell and
looks at it as the crowd cheers. Blake starts to get up and a “Do it!” chant
begins. Chris looks around and hears it before he turns and lunges and drills
Blake with the ring bell. Blake goes up and over the Spanish announce table and
to the floor. The crowd cheers. Chris then looks at the ring bell and shoves it
forward before turning and grabbing the top of the Spanish announce table. The
crowd cheers some more.
Sharper: “Blake sent up and
over. He could be out. Chris now taking apart the Spanish table-“
Knots: “Out or not. Blake is
busted open. It’s bad. I can see it!”
The camera angle changes to
show blood dripping from the face of Blake. Blake tries to sit up, with his
face already just covered in blood, clearly indicating a deep cut. The blood
starts to drip on his chest as Chris keeps taking apart the announce table,
removing the monitors. He then notices Blake busted open. The crowd reacts too
getting a clear reaction.
Sharper: “Oh my God…”
Knots: “Chris caught him with
a corner or something. Blake Mason is not okay!”
Sharper: “And Chris seeing his handiwork. All in the
name of revenge…of closure.”
Chris then steps over and
grabs Blake, not showing any remorse as he rolls him onto the announce table.
Chris climbs up too and looks at Blake as blood keeps dripping onto the table,
covering it in his blood. Chris then drags him up and hooks him up with a full
nelson before hoisting him up and dropping him with a full nelson slam through
the table. The crowd ohs.
Blake remains on his back as Chris rolls over, covered in Blake’s blood too.
Chris looks down, as if contemplating what he’s doing before he gets up and
grabs Blake. Blake just collapses and Chris drags him up and turns and rolls
him into the ring. Blake rolls over, blood dripping down onto the ring. Blake
ends up on his back and slowly rolls over, just covering the canvas with red.
Sharper: “Blake is hurt. Blake
is bleeding.”
Knots: “Chris is almost trying
to tell himself to go through with it.”
Sharper: “We expected this
type of violence or blood in the Tactical Warfare…but this…”
Knots: “He’s caught an artery
or something.”
Chris then slides in as the
official steps in and tries to stop him. Chris snaps at him.
Chris: “No! I need to finish
this!”
Chris then drags Blake up and
turns and throws him into the area between the rings, a trail of blood almost
following Blake, leading to the pool by the Spanish announce table. Chris steps
through and almost frantically grabs him and pushes him into ring one. Blake
rolls over, ending up on his back. Chris steps in and looks at Blake as tells
him to get up. Blake, almost as if trying to give Chris what he wants, starts
to stir. He’s moving slow but he rolls over and the referee tells Chris to stop
as we see the trainer and EMTs starting to move to the ring. Chris sees them
before then looking around. The crowd chants for “Cannon!” as Chris looks up
and then grabs Blake and pulls him in before placing his head between his legs.
Chris then hoists Blake up and holds him up for a moment.
Sharper: “No! Chris! What are
you doing?!”
Knots: “Closure!”
Chris then hits a piledriver on Blake Mason right in the middle of the ring.
The crowd cheers.
Sharper: “Piledriver!”
Knots: “It’s no
disqualification.”
Chris then turns and goes for
the lateral press. He looks at the official and the official drops down and
counts.
1!
2!
3!
The crowd cheers. Chris rolls
off and sits next to Blake, taking deep breaths. The trainer and the EMTs
promptly move in, one holding a towel and immediately going to put pressure on
the head laceration as they start talking to Blake. Chris then slowly gets up
as the referee looks at him. Chris just shakes his head as the official checks
on Blake.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, via pinfall, Chris Cannon!”
Sharper: “Cannon announced the
victor. I’m sure that’s more to end this. The official don’t
know what to do. A piledriver would normally be a
disqualification. It’s an automatic thirty day suspension.”
Knots: “The move that put
Chris out for years…now he’s just put himself out for
thirty days to get his revenge!”
Sharper: “To get his closure.
Two and a half years ago, Chris was piledriven and
put on the shelf. He may have returned the favour tonight. Was it worth it
Chris?”
Chris just looks at Blake,
clearly aware of what he may have done. Blake’s arms move though.
Sharper: “Blake’s moving at
least.”
Knots: “That’s a plus. But he
may not know where he is. He’s a bloody mess.”
Chris continues to just look
as we see officials coming down with a stretcher. The crowd looks on as Chris
then drops down and rolls to the floor. The camera focuses on him as he looks
around. He then takes a deep breath before starting to slowly walk to the back.
The camera remains on Chris Cannon as he makes his long walk toward the back.
The crowd continues to cheer him as the scene slowly fades to black.
We open up with a white space. We then see a shot of
Katya walking forward and looking around. She just smiles as she rubs her hands
together. A quick cut shows Katya having turned into Sienna Swann and Bree
Lancaster as they just chuckle and look around. The scene cuts to show Giovanni
Aries, with the white background turning into psychedelic colours. This is
followed by a shot of Dark Fantasy with dark purple and blackness all around
them, before cutting to Sienna and Bree where golden colours swirl around them
before cutting to show Sasha with the SCW logo behind her. We then see Regan
Street, Selena Frost and Kennedy Street walk into the view and look around. We
then cut again to the white blank space. The pay per view logo comes up on the
screen.
“SCW Presents Tabula Rasa, only on pay per view, live on
Sunday, April 14, 2019”
We cut back to the white screen.
“What will SCW look like?”
The scene cuts away.
We return to ringside to see
Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at ringside.
Sharper: “Tabula Rasa our next
show and we’re still dealing with the aftereffects of this brutal match between
Blake Mason and Chris Cannon. Cannon has actually be
escorted out of the building.”
Knots: “He’s going to have a
suspension.”
Sharper: “And we’re about to
find out who will be overseeing that and much more. Four
teams. Four members on each team. Two rings. One cage. One company on the line.”
A recap video plays showing
the issues the Wonderland and Beauty Factory have had with SCW in the last
year, and the growing issues between Katya and Sasha, before showing Mr. D’s
announcement on Breakdown.
Tactical Warfare
We return to the inside of the
area as we see the Tactical Warfare cage set up around both rings. Ring crew
members are securing it into place.
Sharper: “Here we are. Arguably the biggest match in SCW history. The fate of this company on the line. Who’s
vision will be running things?”
Knots: “I can’t believe it’s
coming to this. And we know a number of things. Teams have been placed in
locked rooms. They will be release just before they will be allowed to come
out. Teams can’t remain
at ringside. No jump attacks in this one.”
Sharper: “Just securing the
cage in place. Let’s go to Jason Phillips who is at ringside.”
The camera angle changes as
the bell sounds.
Phillips: “Ladies and
gentlemen, the following contest is the Tactical Warfare match to determine who
is in charge of SCW. The rules are as follows. A series of coinflips
have determine the order of entrance. Two will start
and compete for four minutes. Then a third entrant will enter. Every two
minutes, another combatant will enter the fray, and only when all sixteen
entrants have enters the ring will it be onefall to a
finish!”
Sharper: “Chaos…pure chaos.”
The crowd cheers.
Phillips: “Let us find out who
will be starting this match!”
The camera pans out as the
crowd roars. We see Aaron Demitra directing traffic
on the floor with the other officials.
"BELIEVE IT!"
At the sound of the familiar call, the true-believers are immediately on their
feet in cheers as "Truth About Our Time” by
Allen/Lande brings forth a barrage purple-blue lights
in the design of snowflakes across the arena. From the back, out walks The Snow
Queen, herself, Selena Frost. With a twirl amongst the lights and snowflakes,
Frost slowly strolls down the ramp, her platinum-white hair in a long-braid
swishing this way and that as the lights bounce off the ice-shard cape she
wears. The SCW US Championship is around her waist.
Phillips: “First, represented
Team Sasha, from Nome, Alaska, she is the SCW United States Champion, the Snow
Queen, Selena Frost!”
Looking around the arena, Selena smiles at the voice of her
true-believers before walking up the steel steps and entering inside the
Tactical Warfare cage. She looks around as she walks over to the middle
of the first ring as all the snowflake-lights rush to form a large blue-white
snowflake-shaped light over Selena. Raising her arms, the Defier
of Worlds looks up at the lights before they return to normal. With a smile,
Selena removes her ice-shard cape, folding it and placing it aside before
returning her attention to the ring. She then turns and takes off her title and
hands it to Demitra on the floor.
Sharper: “Almost apropos that
the Face of SCW is starting this match. Selena Frost, the US
Champion to start off for team Sasha.”
Knots: “I know the four of
them probably had a series of coinflips to determine
who enters first, but at the same time, Selena, we all know she wants this
fight.”
The opening of “Close Your
Eyes" can be heard blaring through the PA system. The camera will
pan through the curtain as the face of James Evans appears, igniting a positive
reaction from the crowd, as they shower him in cheers. The camera remains on
James as he breaks through the curtain. The cheers intensify as James looks out
at the crowd, as he holds the SCW World Tag Team Championship belt.
Phillips: “Next, representing the Wonderland, he is from New York City, New
York, one half of the SCW World Tag Team Champions, James Evans!”
James slowly makes his way to the ring, as images of him winning various
championships and hitting various moves appear on the screen. James reaches the
ring and makes his way up the ring steps, before turning and facing the crowd. He
hands off the title to Demitra. James then steps into
the cage and walks to the center of ring one, removing
his black hoodie, maintaining his focus. James then goes to the corner and sits
on the top turnbuckle, his back to the crowd, looking at Selena Frost across
the ring from him.
Sharper: “James Evans starting
out for his team. Selena and James to start. That
means either Beauty Factory or Katya’s team will follow. And the order
continues in that way.”
Knots: “How about James and
Selena starting in ring one?”
Sharper: “We’ve seen some
wanting to put some space, play some mind games. These two not going to wait it
seems!”
Knots: “And no ref. Four
minutes. No interruptions. Let’s go!”
The cage door closes and Demitra locks it as the bell sounds. James hops down and
the two circle the ring. They lunge and James goes for a collar and elbow
tie-up, but Selena ducks under. James turns and Selena kicks him in the thigh.
She then nails him again. James winces and Selena jumps up and grabs him in a
side headlock. She pulls back as James jockeys for position. He then starts to
drag her back and into the ropes. He then fires her off. Selena bounces off the
other side. James shoulders her down. The crowd ohs. James runs into the ropes. Selena rolls over.
James hops over and turns and Selena gets up, but James kicks her in the ribs
and then locks in a side headlock of his own.
Sharper: “James showing some
adaptation quickly. Selena will run. She’ll kick.”
Knots: “Not doing either right
now.”
James pulls back and Selena
drags him back into the ropes before going to fire him off, but James holds on.
He smirks as he turns and then starts to walk in a circle, holding on tightly
as Selena is forced to follow before he turns and swings her into the corner.
Selena hits the corner and James heads over and kicks her in the ribs. He then
whips her across the ring. James runs after. Selena jumps up and goes for a
float over, but James catches her on his shoulder. Selena looks around and
James turns and Selena kicks her legs and slides down and shoves him into the
corner. James hits and turns around and Selena hits a dropkick, knocking him
down. James rolls over to the ropes.
Sharper: “Hard dropkick and
remember this is a marathon, not a race.”
Knots: “They may want to find
out. There’s a lot of people left to enter.”
Sharper: “And the problem is
that no matter how good natured some are, you may want
an injury. You may want to hurt someone. Better your team’s chances.”
Selena gets up as James starts
to get up too and Selena kicks him in the ribs. She then wrenches his arm and
jerks on it.
Knots: “And Selena going for
the arm early!”
Selena jerks on it again. She
then turns and moves him over to the ropes, but James pulls away. He backs up.
Selena turns and runs at him and goes for a clothesline. James ducks. He spins
around her and locks in a waistlock. Selena falls
forward and grabs onto the ropes. She hugs them as James tries for a German suplex. Selena blocks it. He tries again, but Selena blocks
it again and James clubs her in the back and then again and again. He then
turns and spins her around and fires her off. She bounces off and James lifts
her up and hits a back drop. Selena rolls over in pain. She rolls over and
turns around and James goes for a clothesline. He drops to his knees and moves
to go for a pin, before stopping himself, shaking his head. He then gets up and
hits an elbow drop.
Sharper: “James I think was
thinking about going for a pin. No pins, falls, submissions, anything until
everyone is entered.”
Knots: “But think of what
damage you can do if you lock something in early.”
James gets up as Selena rolls
over. She winces a bit as James grabs her and spins
him around and chops her. The crowd woos. He whips her across again. Selena
bounces off and James goes to launch her up and over the top rope into the
second ring, but Selena jumps forward and springboards off the top rope of the
second ring before jumping forward and rolling through. The crowd roars. She
turns as James turns and exits the first ring and Selena runs over and hits a
running dropkick to the side of James’ head. James falls through the ropes and
into the second ring. James rolls over as Selena turns and grabs his arm and locks
in a quick armbar on right arm. James winces as
Selena pulls back.
Knots: “There you go! Going for the arm!”
Sharper: “More for control
right now, but certainly wearing him down too. All that after
a beautiful bit of agility from the Snow Queen!”
Selena holds on as a “We
Believe! James Evans!” dueling chant begins. James starts to turn, slowly
pulling himself up as Selena holds on. James gets to his knees and James elbows
Selena in the ribs. Selena hits a shoot kick to James’ left arm. James winces
and crawls forward. He pulls himself up and Selena chops him in the chest and
then again. Woos follow. Selena grabs James and goes
to whip her across, but James spins through and sends Selena in. Selena bounces
off and James scoops her up, but Selena spins through and into a DDT. The crowd ohs.
Selena rolls over. She looks around as James grimaces in pain. Selena starts to
get up and falls to the ropes. She turns around as James rolls over and Selena
runs over and hits a running dropkick to the side of James’ head. James rolls
over to his back. Selena then looks at him before then turning and grabbing
him.
Sharper: “Selena I think
wanted to go for a pin there. Again, not the game yet.”
Knots: “You can tell both are
trying to remember the nature of this match. It’s totally different.”
Sharper: “It’s a war of
attrition!”
Selena pulls James up and
nails him with a forearm shot. James falls over to the ropes. Selena follows up
with a kick to the ribs. She then drags him away from the ropes and hooks his
head and goes for a swinging neckbreaker, but James
spins around and shoves her into the ropes. She bounces off and James scoops
her up and hits a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Selena rolls over in pain. James
leans on his knees as the countdown comes up on the screen.

The buzzer goes as we see
Andrew Raynes running out from the back. He runs down
to the ring as the crowd boos loudly. He runs over to the door as Demitra takes a moment to open it. Raynes

the third spot. That means Dark Fantasy and Katya have the final entrant
before we restart.”
Knots: “Luck I guess. But
Andrew Raynes is beating James Evans’ ass!”
Sharper: “Angry about a lot of
things. One of which is the World Tag Team Championship! Bree and him have a shot waiting and it was delayed because of this
match!”

area between the rings and grabs James and throws him back with a vicious mat
slam in the area between the rings. James rolls over in pain. The crowd ohs. Andrew then enters

The buzzer goes and the crowd
roars as Regan Street walks out from the back. She is taping her hands and rips
off the end of the roll before throwing it out to the crowd. She then starts to
head to the ring. The crowd cheers as a “Hellcat!” chant begins.
Sharper: “And things just went
to a new level. The final members of each team. The
anchor if you will. The one that will put them over the top.
Regan Street coming in last for Team Sasha!”
Knots: “And a lot of people in
there she has some history with, good and bad!”
Regan continues to head to the
ring and then runs over to the door. Demitra opens it
and Regan pulls herself up and into the ring before we then see Syren running across and nailing her with a Face Lift.

and boos. Selena and Owen turn and start to head over to the first ring. They
do, but as they do, Damian nails Selena with a hard right and Giovanni clubs
Owen in the back. Syren exits the ring as Aaron Demitra tries to keep her in. Regan starts to get up,
wincing and Syren spins her around and runs her into
the cage. Regan stumbles back and Syren turns and
runs her along the ringside area and throws her into the timekeeper’s table,
causing Regan to go up and over and collapsing on the other side in a heap. The
crowd boos as Syren stumbles back and falls to a
knee, smiling.
Sharper: “God damn it! Syren taking any
opportunity to go after Regan!”
Knots: “Better hope she’s
unconscious! She may murder you tonight!”
Sharper: “Syren
happy now…And Damian and Giovanni inadvertently helping.”
Knots: “Or advertently. No
Regan is good for them!”
Giovanni clubs Owen again and
Damian sends Selena into the ropes. She bounces off as Damian hits a powerslam. The crowd ohs.

and Damian turns to her but Syren nails him with a
shot to the head, Damian just getting his hands up and hitting the mat. He
rolls over, holding his face. Syren then looks at
Owen and slams the chair into his back. Owen falls over and Syren
looks at Damian again and slams it into his back. Damian yells out and a cut
can be seen over his eye.

using that chair, from under the ring, a weapon…to give a big advantage.”

turns and quickly grabs Syren and spins her around
and into the area between the rings. Angelica then goes after Bree as Marie
goes for Andrew and Kim goes for Ikiro. They all nail
them with hard rights as the crowd roars and just then Angelica kicks Bree in
the ribs and scoops her up and hits a front slam. Kim and Marie hit jawbreakers
on Ikiro and Andrew respectively. All three are down,
almost all in a straight line. The three Jones look at each
other before they all run into the ropes. All jump up, with Angelica
going to the top rope to make it easier, and all hitting the Divine Impact on
their respective targets. The crowd cheers. James meanwhile sends Syren into the first ring and follows up.
Sharper: “Angelica Jones!
Marie Jones! Kim Williams! Divine Impact!”
Knots: “The Joneses making it
so no one can keep up with them. But they’re on different teams! Marie for Katya. Kim for Marie. Angelica for Wonderland!”

they’ve had their moment!”
James follows up with a couple
of knees before sending her into the corner as the crowd cheers the Jones
before Kennedy gets up and nails Marie from behind. Selena enters and nails

Swann walks out from the back. She smiles as she poses as wings come out from
behind her. The Truelove Twins step out and help her remove the wings as we see

the way before opening the cage door herself. She steps in as the crowd roars
and the cameras turn to the ring, missing Sienna’s entrance. The crowd erupts
in cheers as Regan enters and Regan grabs James and blasts him with a hard
right before turning to Syren and kneeing her hard in
the ribs, over and over and over as the crowd erupts in cheers.
Sharper: “Sienna coming out,
but the story is not her! Regan Street in the ring and
beating the ever-loving hell out of Syren!”
Knots: “Even throwing James
out of the way. Syren didn’t get the job done and
Regan’s going for her head!”
The cameras stay on Regan as
she continues to pummel her. Sienna makes her way to the ring and pulls the

all together. All in there and all taking advantage of
it.”
Knots; “Sienna seizing the
moment. Even helping Regan. There’s a long history there. But Bree,
Andrew and Ikiro, they were down and saw a moment to
get back.”
Sharper: “That’s the problem.
So many bodies and its easy to lose track!”
Ikiro whips Selena across and runs
across. He nails Selena with a running clothesline. She falls over. Bree then
shoulders Kennedy repeatedly in the ribs. Sienna turns and then walks over to
Regan and starts to help her up and Regan pushes her away. The two look at one
another as the crowd roars. Sienna just points to herself and then the other

through the ropes, but Sienna pulls her back. Regan goes to nail her. Sienna
just steps back.

middle area. Sienna turns and goes to grab Giovanni, but James nails her in the ribs and then nails her with a knee to the
ribs. She turns and whips Sienna into the ropes. Sienna bounces off and James
hits a back drop. Giovanni meanwhile hits the Bad Trip on the aprons. The crowd ohs. Damian stirs as Syren slowly gets up in the corner. Bree turns and grabs
the steel chair Syren brought in and runs over and
drives the edge into Kennedy’s ribs. She steps back and hands the chair to

turns and throws it at Marie. Marie drops down finally leaving the Tree of Woe.
The countdown clock returns as Kim runs at Andrew and tackles him down. She
nails him with repeated blows as the crowd roars.
Sharper: “Andrew went after
Marie and Kim took him down. Just hammering away!”
Knots: “But maybe too little
too late to help Marie. Here comes Bree and Ikiro!”
Sharper: “Just as Ravyn is going to enter.”
Andrew covers up as Kim gets a
few more shots in and Bree and Ikiro run over and
grab her and pull her off. They then turn and throw her through the ropes and
into the area between the rings. Giovanni moves into the second ring and nails Ikiro with a hard right and then nails Bree with a kick

down to the ring and Sienna turns to the side of the cage and invites her in. Ravyn just smirks.

taking her time. Just standing at ringside.”

on Ravyn. Ravyn ducks and
turns and Ravyn nails her in
the ribs with a hard right. Sienna falls over, grimacing in pain. It’s revealed
that Ravyn has brass knuckles on her right hand.

moment we’ve been waiting for. One fall to a finish.”

coming to ringside overjoyed. She heads over and walks into the cage. She steps
over to Owen and raises his arm as Kim helps Marie out of the cage. We cut
backstage to see Mr. D nod before he turns and starts to walk out of the
building.

the end result of the pay per view main event he will
book in SCW. And his eldest daughter putting together the team
that won.”

relief along with pride.”

different. That’s for sure.”

front window of the car, a bloody hole before we see Mr. D down next to the
car, blood coming down his face, presumably from the attack.
Sharper: “Oh my God…”
Knots: “Who…who would do
that?!”
Sharper: “I don’t know…but
Sasha doesn’t even know. They’re still celebrating in the ring?!”
We cut to see Sasha
celebrating with Owen, Regan, Kennedy and Selena, now at the ringside area as
the crowd continues to cheer them, the scene backstage not playing on the big
screen. The scene then slowly fades to black…
