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:
“Revenge is the act of passion…”
We see video footage of Sienna Swann, Chris Cannon, and
their allies brutally attacking and assaulting James Evans.
“...vengeance is an act of justice.”
We see James Evans lashing out, striking back as he fends
off attacks from Sienna Swann and her allies. We see James Evans and Sienna
Swann taunting each other while Evans raises the SCW World Title belt high over
his head victoriously.
Sienna: “Not once have I ever had the advantage, so I
believe it is time we flipped the switch…”
We see footage of Sienna Swann getting eliminated from
the End of the Year Battle Royal.
Sienna: “I am cashing this contract for a World
Championship match against the fraud holding my title...James Evans!”
We see footage of James Evans winning the SCW World
Championship at the End of the Year Battle Royal and celebrating with his newly
won title in the ring.
Sienna: “...this match will have a special
referee...XIOMARA DIAZ!”
A clip of Xiomara Diaz is shown.
Sienna: “...I will have a special guest enforcer referee
to make sure that no one interferes, that being BREE LANCASTER!”
A clip of Bree Lancaster is shown.

We see footage of James Evans fighting like a madman,
striking out against Sienna Swann and her allies.
James: “I’ve rebuilt my reputation, I’ve earned this
title...and Sienna, the only kiss I’ll be experiencing is when you kiss goodbye
to your title hopes for the foreseeable future!”
We see another shot of Sienna Swann shouting angrily.
Then we see James Evans taunting her with the SCW World Title. The image
explodes and in its place is the “Retribution 2020” logo.
“Popular
Monster” by Falling in Reverse plays as we see the Retribution logo reform on
the screen.
“Now,
SCW presents Retribution 2020!”
The scene
switches to the inside of the FedExForum in Memphis,
Tennessee. The crowd cheers as spotlights circle the area. The crowd cheers
before we cut to see the Thunderdome hanging over the ring.
Sharper:
“We are live in Memphis on a night where Sienna Swann hopes to win back the
World Championship in the Thunderdome!”
The
cameras pan throughout the crowd before we cut to ringside to see Jonathan
Knots and Adam Sharper standing next to the ring.
Sharper:
“Hello again everyone. Adam Sharper here with Jonathan Knots and folks, big
night.”
Knots:
“Big night. Sienna Swann has stacked the deck. She’s hoping either her or Chris
Cannon walk out World Champion. But James Evans is ready for a fight. And we
could see history when Regan Street wins the Tag Team Championship. Can she and
Selena do it against the Jackass and Big Ass Connection and Infamous?”
Sharper:
“Not only that, Adrenaline and US Titles on the line. Bree Lancaster challenges
Kimberly Williams. Jordan Majors and Marie Jones will challenge Asher Hayes for
the Adrenaline Championship and so much more.
Knots:
“But things are already going on here.”
Sharper:
“Indeed, moments before we went on the air, you see Damian Angel stopped by
Peyton Rice and Kelcey Wallace.”
MOMENTS AGO:
We see Damian Angel looking at
Peyton.
Damian: “What? Don’t you want to
win?”
Peyton: “I want to compete. I
want to compete on my terms. If you respect me in any way as you claim, you’ll
respect that. Stay back here.”
Damian steps back and looks at Kelcey.
Damian: “Fine…but you…Kelcey…guide her. She’s special.”
Damian turns and walks off as
Peyton looks at Damian and Kelcey motions for Peyton
to come with her. We cut back to a live shot.
Knots:
“Good to see Damian Angel isn’t any less intense than he’s been as of late!”
Peyton
Rice vs. Kelsai Adamson-Mason
Phillips: “The following
contest is a Non-title match, scheduled for one fall! Introducing first from
Seattle, WA., weighing in at 118 lbs., she is accompanied by her manager, Amy Chastaine! Here is current SCW Television Champion, the
“Little Spitfire” Kelsai Adamson-Mason!”
A very traditional entrance with no lights or pyro as Kelsai
believes you have to earn those things, and by her estimation she has not
earned anything yet. She walks to the ring quickly and confidently while
"Let Love In" plays in the background and she has the hugest smile on
her face while her manager Amy Chastaine walks by her
side, smiling brightly. Getting to the ring, Kelsai
jumps from the floor to the ring apron before she steps through the ropes,
reveals her simple all white attire, and goes to her corner, smiling and waving
enthusiastically, before she gets ready for her match, with Amy keeping watch
from the corner outside…..
Sharper: “The television Champion is here and a very energetic and pleasant
woman she is. This match came about at Breakdown when Kelsai
challenged Peyton Rice to a rematch of the RTG Special Preview show last year
where those two women stole the spotlight. Being honorable, Kelsai
challenged Rice because she could see the young Rookie of the Year in 2019
needed a match like this, a pure wrestling contest.”
Knots: “Lets call a spade a spade here, Kelsai saw
where Peyton’s mindset was at, she challenged her because like any wrestler,
she wants the win back and you even heard her, she is more prepared this time,
spoiler alert, so is Peyton.”
The arena goes dark before a lone spotlight shines on the entrance, suddenly
the opening beats to “All The Days" by Mammoth play throughout the arena
as the beautiful Peyton Rice walks out in wrestling gear and jacket. Her long
sandy 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.
Suddenly Kelcey Wallace walks out to an even bigger
roar of the crowd as she looks around and smiles. Turning to Peyton they both
nods. With her gorgeous and contagious smile, Peyton starts to walk to the ring
with Kelcey behind her, 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, then behind her is Kelcey who slides in the ring much to the cheers of the
fans, standing up quickly, Kelcey points to the
turnbuckle. Peyton hopes on the second rope, pointing at the sky as the cheers
continuing, Kelcey clapping. Peyton then thanks the
fans while being announced….
Phillips: “From Glendale, Arizona! Weighing in at 115 pounds, accompanied to
the ring by her manager, “The Perfect Ten” Kelcey
Wallace! She is NOT another “Pretty Face”, here is 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, talking with Kelcey who takes her entrance
gear and steps outside to the corner, awaiting for the match to begin…..
Knots: “With Kelcey in her corner who I have to say
looks amazing, dare I say better than when she was an active competitor? It has
made a difference in Peyton’s demeanor, she looks herself but more determined
than ever, did you see how her emotions switched the second she looked across
the ring to Kelsai? Peyton knows a loss here could be
devastating.”
Sharper: “She hasn’t won a singles match in 2020 which is absolutely unheard of
for this young woman who has a record most would be envious of. I think this is
a great match for both competitors who have had some rough spots lately with a
lot of attacks and interference, this is what wrestling is about.”
Peyton and Kelsai both get checked by the referee.
Kelcey and Amy look across at each other and nod in
respect before the referee calls for the bell. Peyton and Kelsai
circle the ring, they stop and shake hands, say a few words with a show of
respect before the crowd roars as the two ladies go to lock up. Peyton drops to
one knee, getting leverage, pushing Kelsai against
the ropes. She quickly breaks clean and backs up. Kelsai
nods as they circle the ring again locking up, this time Kelsai
gets some leverage, turning in an angle, pushing Peyton back to the ropes. As
the referee is about to administer a count, Kelsai
breaks clean as well, she backs up this time when Peyton nods. They again
circle the ring, Amy and Kelcey looking on as the two
women lock up again, Peyton drops to one knee, she quickly arm drags Kelsai, who springs up, charging in, Peyton goes for a hip
toss but Kelsai reverses, hip tossing Peyton who
quickly kicks Kelsai off, Peyton kips up, Kelsai turns, Peyton shocks her with a dropkick, she rolls
on top of Kelsai for the pinfall…
1!
2!
Kelsai Reverses, now sitting on Peyton for the pin!
1!

Peyton bridges up, she spins and hits a back slide!
1!
2!
Kelsai kicks out and quickly rolls up Peyton in a
small package!
1!
2!
Peyton reverses the small package!
1!
2!
Kelsai Kicks out!
They both kip up facing each other as the crowd roars, Amy and Kelcey both clapping as Peyton and Kelsai
nod, they shake hands and circle around the ring again.
Sharper: “An incredible show of wrestling between these two future World
Champions, Peyton and Kelsai trying to get one on
each other, these two are so evenly matched, they both not only want but need
this win moving forward. You can see how focused they are and Peyton we can see
is enjoying this.”
Knots: “She is but look at her face, that is one determined woman. Kelsai wants to make a statement, Peyton wants to remind
everyone why she was Rookie of the Year, this is a match which can build
momentum for both after Retribution, Peyton has shown frustration, Kelsai has been ready for the challenge. This will go to
the wire.”
The two ladies lock up again, this time Peyton whips Kelsai
against the ropes, she drops to the mat, Kelsai hops
over, Peyton kips up, a leap frog over Kelsai, she
looks over her shoulder and another leapfrog, Kelsai
bounces off and Peyton connects with a dropkick! The fans roar, Kelsai gets up, Peyton hops on with a head scissors
floating Kelsai over, she gets up and Peyton with a
flying side headlock so quickly she didn’t give Kelsai
a chance to react floating her over and locking in, the fans cheer. Kelsai though turns Peyton on her shoulders…
1!
2!
Peyton shifts her weight, holding the headlock tight but Kelsai
again turns Peyton on her shoulders…
1!
2!
Peyton again shifts her weight back, this time, Kelsai
able to get to her knees, she starts to bring Peyton up, pushing her into the
ropes, Peyton bounces back, Kelsai with a flip over
the head hip toss! Peyton lands hard but she gets back up, charges in but Kelsai sidesteps and trips up Peyton, rolling over on her
with the La Magistral Cradle!
1!
2!
Peyton Kicks Out!
Kelsai quickly grabs the charging Peyton into a Hurricarana, No! Peyton holds on to her, trying to muscle Kelsai up but she floats behind Peyton into a Sunset Flip
for the cover…
1!
2!
Peyton kicks out, rolls over and basement dropkick right to the chest of Kelsai! Kelcey nods as Amy
screams encouraging words, Peyton runs against the ropes with a Lionsault that hits the money! Peyton quickly covers the TV
Champion!
1!
2!
Kelsai Kicks Out!
Sharper: “This match is fast paced and one of them is looking for an opening,
that will change the landscape of this match! Amy and Kelcey
are watching their proteges with pride as they are putting on a clinic here
tonight!
Knots: “They really are, both wrestlers are quick, but Peyton Rice is like
lightning, arguably the fastest wrestler on the roster and she hits with
precision. We are seeing a more focused, determined Peyton than we have the
last few months, both of these women are special, Kelsai
said that she was not the same person that she was last year, a better
wrestler, I think we can argue that so is Peyton.”
Peyton picks up Kelsai, she hits a forearm, before
whipping her into the turnbuckle but Kelsai using her
speed quickly reverses, Peyton lands hard, Kelsai
follows up with a handspring elbow as the crowd cheers, followed by a Monkey
Flip! Peyton lands hard on her back, but she quickly kips up right into a step
up Enzinguiri by Kelsai as
she got all of it, Peyton crashed to the mats as Kelsai
picks up Peyton right into multiple snap Suplexes!
She delivers three before floating on top for the cover!
1!
2!
Peyton Kicks out!
Kelcey claps, Amy continues to encourage Kelsai as she nods, lifting Peyton, setting her up for a
belly to belly suplex, Peyton plants her feet, she
quickly spins around Kelsai, Rice-A-Roni! The Hiptoss Neckbreaker on Kelsai! The crowd roars, Peyton shakes off the cobwebs, she
stands in the corner waiting for Kelsai to get to her
feet and as she does, Peyton runs toward her with the Snowbird Spear, No! Kelsai dodges, Peyton stops right before she hits the
turnbuckle, quickly turning around but Kelsai kicks
her in the midsection, Snap DDT! Peyton goes headfirst into the mats. Kelsai rolls Peyton over and climbs the top rope…
Sharper: “Peyton his hard with that DDT and she looks out! She’s not moving and
Kelsai is climbing to the top rope, she is setting up
for the finish and Peyton is in trouble, these two women have been showing
their speed and quickness, also their resilience but this could be over right
here!”
Knots: “Kelcey looks concerned, she is yelling at
Peyton who looks completely out of it! Here comes Kelsai!
Kelsai hits a 720 splash! The crowd roars as she
hooks the leg for the cover!
1!
2!
3… NO!
Peyton Gets her Shoulder up! Kelcey slams he apron in
relief, as the crowd cheers. Amy is in shock as is Kelsai
who holds up three fingers and the referee shakes his head holding up two.
Sharper: “Wow! Peyton Rice with her shoulder up at the last minute, Amy and Kelsai are stunned, even Kelcey
looks relieved!”
Knots: “Kelsai is not the same wrestler, well neither
is Peyton Rice! She knows how much this means and what a win over the TV
Champion will do! Different dynamic in this match this time, Peyton is not done
yet!”
Kelsai nods, she picks up Peyton Rice, whipping her
into the turnbuckle, she goes to deliver another handspring elbow but Peyton
moves out of the way, Kelsai crashes back first,
Peyton circles the ring and delivers a huge Mafia Kick! Kelsai
slowly staggers and Peyton runs at her with the Snowbird! The spear cuts Kelsai in half as Peyton drops for the cover…
1!
2!
3…. NO!
Kelsai kicks out! This time Kelcey
and Peyton are shocked. But Peyton wastes no time, she grabs Kelsai by the arm, lifting her up, right into a Russian Leg
Sweep! Peyton hops on the top rope, pointing to the crowd, Kelcey
claps while Amy looks on worried, the crowd roars as Peyton hits a frog splash!
Hooking the leg for the cover…
1!
2!
3… NO!
Kelsai kicks out again! Peyton unties her ponytail,
letting her straightened hair down, looking over at Kelcey
who nods, telling her to keep going. Peyton stands up, she slowly pulls Kelsai to her feet, locking her up in a front face lock,
she goes running up the ropes for the Bear Down Tornado DDT! No! Kelsai pushes off, Peyton lands on her feet, Roundhouse
kick by Kelsai! Peyton staggers then drops to the
mat, Kelsai hops on the top rope, the crowd roars, Kelcey looks on, Kelsai hits the
One and Only! Spiral Tap! The crowd hops on their feet!
Sharper: “Kelsai caught that out of nowhere! This one
is over!”
Knots: “She hit it hard, Peyton is done!”
The referee drops for the count…
1!
2!
3! ….. NO!
Peyton gets her shoulder up!
Sharper: “She kicked out fop the One and Only!? Peyton is still in this!”
Knots: “The heart of both of these competitors! The crowd and Kelsai are in shock! Look at her face, she is looking at
Amy for answers and Kelcey is pacing, I think even
she was surprised that Peyton was able to get her shoulder up!”
Kelsai sits there staring at Peyton. She then turns
to Amy who nods, picking up Rice, Kelsai sets her up
for another Snap DDT, no! Peyton reverses, she locks Kelsai
and runs up the ropes with the Bear Down! Kelsai is
down as Peyton crawls on her hooking the leg!
Sharper: “Kelsai planted, Peyton is going to win
this!”
Knots: “She got all that Tornado DDT! This one is over!”
The referee drops again for the count…
1!
2!
3! … NO!
Kelsai gets her shoulder up! Peyton can’t believe it,
Kelcey looks on shaking her head as Amy screams in
excitement. The crowd is stunned again this time cheering loudly.
Sharper: “These two women can never be questioned on their heart and desire!
Peyton and Kelsai shot each other with one of their
primary weapons that have won so many matches for them and so far, both have
been able to kick out!”
Knots: “There is not much more either of these ladies can take! It is coming
down to who pulls off the next big move!”
Peyton looks shocked, she slowly gets up looking at Kelcey
who tells her to continue. Peyton picks up Kelsai,
she goes for a European forearm, Kelsai blocks, she
kicks Peyton in the midsection, locking up and hitting a snap suplex! Both ladies lay in the ring, Amy and Kelcey yell encouragement. Peyton and Kelsai
slowly get to their feet, Kelsai sees Peyton getting
up, she runs and spears Peyton! The crowd roars as Kelsai
slowly gets up, she starts to climb the ropes tapping her head, Amy is cheering
her on as Kelcey is screaming for Peyton to get up,
but she is laid out. Kelsai climbs the top rope,
quickly launching off Bombs Away headbutt! No! Peyton rolls out of the way and Kelsai lands hard face first on the mat!
Sharper: “Kelsai took a risk and missed!”
Knots: “Peyton rolled off right on time! What is Peyton doing? Kelcey yelled at her to finish it!”
Peyton quickly picks herself up, she watches Kelsai
get to her feet, Peyton grabs Kelsai, hooks her leg,
The Perfect-Ten Plex!
Knots: “Shades of Kelcey Wallace! The Perfect-Ten
Plex!”
Sharper: “Peyton bridges perfectly for the cover!”
Referee drops for the count…
1!
2!
3!
Peyton let’s go and rolls off to her stomach as the bell rings, Kelcey slams the apron in excitement before sliding in. Amy
drops her head but quickly enters to check on Kelsai
as the referee raises Peyton’s arm while she lies on the mat…
Phillips: “The Winner of the match…. PEYTON RICE!!!!
“All The Days” starts to play throughout the arena as the crowd cheer. Kelcey checks on Peyton, helping her up as Amy does the
same to Kelsai, trying to help her sit up.
Sharper: “What a match! What a match and these two women put everything on the
line! Peyton was able to capitalize on one mistake and used the playbook of Kelcey Wallace to do it! Both of these ladies put their
heart and soul into this!”
Knots: “Kelsai came in with a game plan, and she was
right, Sharper, she was ready and a different wrestler, more aggressive but so
was Peyton and we saw a woman who felt like her back was to the wall!
Incredible effort and what a win for Pey.”
Peyton gets to her feet, she hugs Kelcey, then turns
to Kelsai who looks up at her, Peyton drops to her
knee and says a few words to the TV Champion before they both hugs, the crowd
roars. Amy and Kelcey shake hands out of respect.
Peyton then goes to climb up to the second rope and raise her hands in victory,
point to the fans while Kelcey claps. Amy helps Kelsai out of the ring. Handing her the TV title as the
fans cheer for her effort, she nods and smiles, both making their way toward
the back. Peyton points to her waist, signaling its time to go after some gold,
Kelcey agrees….
Sharper: “Great sportsmanship from two class acts, two young women who are the
future of the sport. Peyton Rice victorious tonight but can’t take away
anything from Kelsai, they both put it all out
there.”
Knots: “It could have gone either way but look at Pey,
a little confidence now, making the title gesture around her waist and after
what has happened with Damien Angel, Trios, the TV Title mess and all else that
has been making this young woman question the sport, winning this match
reminded her why she is here.”
Kelcey continues to celebrate with Peyton in the ring
while Amy and Kelsai head to the back..
The scene switches to show the
Thunderdome hanging over the ring as “Popular Monster” plays in the background.
Sharper: “And as Kelcey Wallace celebrates with Peyton Rice, the fact is
that our main event is in part inspired by her. Kelcey
never won in the Thunderdome.”
Knots: “Sienna Swann is hoping
she or Chris Cannon do that tonight. By defeating James Evans and taking the
World Title.”
Sharper: “Take would be the
operative word. The deck is stacked and we’ve seen James Evans come through
wars in the past. Clarity, End of the Year Special, the matches against
Giovanni Aries and Syren. But this…this is on another
level.”
Knots: “And unlike those other
examples, he will definitely be alone and no one can help.”
The Thunderdome remains the
focus for a few moments longer before we cut away.
Konrad Raab vs. Katie Steward
Phillips: The following
contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, Katie Steward!
Oh, she's sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she's screamin'
"I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"
The arena lights dim down and pink light shine on the stage. “Sweet but
Psycho:” by Ava Max plays as The Queen of Queens and Goddess of Desire Katie
Steward steps out on the stage. Gigi and Maddy are with her. She
walks her beautiful white and gold religious ring robe that is popelike 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. Along the way to the ring Gigi and Maddy pass
out prayer beads to the fans at ringside. 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.
Cold as Ice by M.O.P plays over the sound system as Konrad comes out through
the curtain just wearing his blue and white mask with white hair along with his
wrestling trousers with his nickname The Iceman on the front of them with Pit
Bull Energy logos on the side of his trousers with black gloves on both of his
hands with a side cross necklace on his neck with the blue and black yin-yang
tattoo on his right shoulder, Iceman from X-Men tattoo on his back, Ice wolf on
his left chest and ice bear on his right chest.
Phillips: “From Cologne, Germany, he is The Iceman, Konrad Raab!”
He then high fives the fans as he goes up the stairs before going in-between
the ropes and does a holdup on each turnbuckle and everyone cheers him as he
gets down from the turnbuckle and does a few boxing punches to the cameras
before he looks at his opponent waiting for the match to start.
Konrad starts off furious with a series of clotheslines, a hard shoulder block,
and a body slam. Katie pops up quickly only to get dropped over and over
again after rapid fire boxing punches from Raab.
Konrad with a devastating spear rolls into a quick cover but barely gets a one
count before Katie rolls her shoulder off of the mat and then rolls outside
herself.
Sharper: Konrad hoping to end it early after a quick series of offense.
Knots: Konrad doesn’t look too happy tonight. Think the Stewards are
getting under his skin?
Sharper: Maybe.
Gigi and Maddy rush up to encourage Katie. Konrad breaks it up by rushing
outside. He spears the trio down. He rolls Katie back into the ring
while Gigi and Maddy scramble back to their feet and run for cover away from
Konrad. Konrad ignores them, focusing instead on Katie. He enters
the ring and hits a traditional suplex followed by a
German suplex with a bridge…
1…
...2!Kickout!
Konrad goes for another German suplex but Katie
blocks with an elbow to the face. She connects with a jaw breaker that
staggers the larger Raab. Katie hits the ropes
and connects with a bulldog takedown. Konrad quickly pushes himself up
but is dropped by a running jumping knee smash.
Sharper: Katie just turned the momentum in her favor.
Knots: You cannot count a legend like Steward out.
Katie with The Botox Injection! A cover…
1…
….2!Kickout!
Katie seems frustrated. She goes over to the ropes where she converses
with Maddy while Gigi passes out more prayer beads to fans. Konrad pulls
himself up and Katie connects with The Most Beautiful Superkick Ever. She
covers…
1…
...2!Kickout!
Katie locks in a sharpshooter to Konrad.
Sharper: Steward turning away from her striking offense to a technical based
attack with this sharpshooter.
Knots: Not a good strategy. Konrad is still too strong in my opinion.
The referee is in perfect position to ask for a submission but Konrad shakes
his head no. He fights and crawls towards the ropes. As he gets
closer Gigi and Maddy taunt him with the beads. Konrad is just about
there when Katie drags him back out to the center. Konrad still refuses
to quit. He fights to the ropes again. Gigi and Maddy have no
commandeered the cameras of two cameramen and are shoving them in Konrad’s
face, just further taunting him.
Sharper: I’m not sure angering Konrad is a good idea.
Knots: You don’t want his dark side to come out.
Konrad eventually reaches the ropes. Katie releases the hold. She
drags Konrad up and sets up for Save The Queen but Konrad powers out with a
back drop to the outside! Konrad joins her outside and lands a vicious
clothesline. Konrad with a spine buster to the outside! Konrad
rolls Katie back into the ring and immediately covers…
1…
2…
3...NO! Katie gets a shoulder up!
Konrad with the Iceinator! The cover…
1…
2…
...3NO! Katie gets a shoulder up!
Sharper: Two very near falls created by Konrad!
Knots: He has Katie reeling!
Konrad locks Katie up in the Ice Lock!
Sharper: Ice Lock applied by Raab! This could
be over!
Knots: It will be over if Katie can’t get to the ropes!
Konrad keeps the hold locked in tightly as Katie screams in agony. Gigi
and Maddy rush to the ring apron and shout encouragement to Katie. Katie
fights and claws towards the ropes while Konrad keeps the hold locked in
tight. Katie is almost there but Konrad drags her back out to the center
of the ring!
Sharper: Smart move by Konrad!
Knots: She’s gotta tap now!
Katie again fights to the ropes but Konrad wrenches it in even tighter.
Just as it seems as if Katie is ready to give up the fight, Maddy hops up on
the apron and shouts at the referee...apparently she wants to give him a prayer
bead...while the referee is ordering Maddy off the apron, Gigi slides into the
ring and pulls Katie away from Konrad, breaking the Ice Lock.
Sharper: Maddy and Gigi sure are paying dividends here tonight for Katie!
Knots: Konrad doesn’t look too happy though.
Konrad goes after the referee, enraged and shouting angrily about what Gigi
just did. He says he didn’t see a thing because he was busy with Maddy.
Konrad snaps and decks the referee with a hard right hand.
Sharper: My God! Konrad decks the referee!
Knots: That’ll be a disqualification!
Sure enough the bell sounds. The announcement from Phillips doesn’t help
matters....
Phillips: Your winner, via disqualification, KATIE STEWARD!
Maddy and Gigi pull Katie to safety while Konrad continues to lose his
cool. The trio run for cover.
Breakdown
returns as we see Jake Starr walking down the hallway in his wrestling gear.
Starr:
“Alright! Where’s my opponent?! Let me at him! Let me-“
Jessica:
“Ah Jake?”
Starr stops
as Jessica Winters walks over to him.
Starr:
“You’re my opponent! Geez! I guess I am going to fight everyone who ever was in
SCW! Well, see you-“
Jessica:
“No, Jake…you’re not booked tonight.”
Starr
looks around. He then looks down at his tights.
Starr:
“But I’m wearing my wrestling tights.”
Jessica:
“Yes…I assume you put them on.”
Starr:
“Maybe I have a fleet of people help me. That’s the going thing for the other
great stars like Syren and Sienna!”
Jessica:
“Uh…”
Starr:
“Fine, Jordan won’t let me in her locker room. Wants to focus on her match and
I don’t blame her. But just a bit stir crazy. This is a big event for me…and
well, feels weird that I’m not competing at it.”
Jessica:
“Then do something better.”
Starr:
“What’s that?”
Jessica:
“Cheer on your sister. She can have the spotlight tonight. She could win the
Adrenaline Championship…the title YOU won at this event eleven years ago.”
Starr:
“That’s true…”
Jessica:
“It is. Be a big brother.”
Starr:
“You know what… that sounds like a perfect way to enjoy tonight. Thanks!”
Starr
turns and heads off as Jessica watches him leave and we cut away.
Jay Gold
vs. Gavin Taylor
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for one fall… Introducing first…”
“Until the Day I Die” hits the sound system, as a golden hue washes over the
arena. As soon as the loud crash is heard a few measures in, Jay Gold appears
on the stage. The crowd pops for the SCW Hall of Famer. Jay surveys the crowd
with squinted eyes before strolling down the ramp towards the ring.
Phillips: “From Albany, New York… SCW Hall of Famer… first ever Supreme
Champion…. JAY GOLD!”
Once there, Jay stands up on the apron, and looks out and smiles. He steps into
the ring and once he's in the middle of his ring with his arms held up high,
golden pyro explodes out of all four turnbuckles as the crowd continues to
cheer Gold. Jay readies himself for the pending battle.
Sharper: “Jay Gold has had a rough month or so. While he refuses to admit that
choosing Xander Valentine as his partner in the Trios Tournament was a mistake,
a lot of us here believe it was.”
Knots: “Anytime, anyone gets involved with that monster, you better believe you
might be liable to get hurt.”
Sharper: “And his other partner in the Trios Tournament is Jay Gold’s opponent
tonight, Gavin Taylor. He too did not have a good night during the Trios
Tournament now did he?”
Knots: “Both were attacked by Xander Valentine after their failure to advance
past the first round. If Lucas Knight didn’t come down, who knows what would
have happened to both men.”
The lights around the arena begin to flicker as "Whoa Is Me" by Down
With Webster starts to play over the arena.
Whoa is me
I'm so whoa
See me decked out from my head to my toe
Whoa is me
I'm so whoa
Everywhere I go I'm a one man show
And the song continues.
Phillips: “And his opponent…”
The crowd boos as "All Star" Gavin Taylor steps out from behind the
curtain onto the top of the ramp. As he stands in place, posing with his arms outstretched,
the chorus of the song plays.
Say whoa (whoa)
The more I feel it whoa (whoa)
The more I need it whoa (whoa)
You say whoa
Whoa is me
I'm so whoa
Gavin begins to walk down the ramp with swagger. He smirks as he gets to the
ring. Pulling himself to the apron, he hangs out off the ring while holding
onto the top rope.
Phillips: “Weighing in at 225 pounds…. The All Star… the MVP of Life… Obscenely
Naturally Talented…. GAVIN TAYLOR!”
The song continues...
I cheated to get what I got
Stepped all over you self for my spot
I bet you I'm winning, I bet that you're not
I bet you don't see me, I bet you get caught
Gavin pulls himself through the ropes and steps onto the second ropes on the
opposite side of the ring from the ramp. He opens his jersey, sliding it off
his shoulders as he stretches his arms out. Turning around, he bounces back off
the ropes as he stares down Jay Gold.
Sharper: “Despite Jay Gold trying to save Gavin from Xander Valentine’s
assault, Gavin has publicly, numerous times, have pinned the blame solely on
Jay Gold. He chose Xander. He put Gavin in that unsafe condition. You know
what, I think that’s load of bull manure if I ever heard of it.”
Knots: “A few Breakdowns ago, Gavin was cherishing Jay Gold’s loss to Xander
Valentine. If I was Jay Gold, I would want to do nothing more but to teach this
kid a lesson in respect.”
Sharper: “Jay Gold has zero respect heading into this contest towards Gavin
Taylor. Gavin Taylor should at least know better than to diminish a SCW Hall of
Famer. There’s a lot of history that Jay Gold has that people still remember to
this day. He’s a great wrestler and he’s going to show the kid a thing or two
about professional wrestling.”
The bell rings. Both men circle about in the ring before meeting in the center.
Jay Gold slips to the side, before whipping Gavin into the ropes. The larger
Gavin digs his heels into the canvas before reversing the whip. Jay Gold
propels off the ropes and leaps into the air to take down Gavin with a
crossbody. Gavin rolls straight up onto his feet, but there’s a dropkick to the
side knocking him back into the corner. Jay Gold comes in with a splash before
leading Gavin Taylor towards the center of the ring with a bulldog.
Sharper: “Early going sees Jay Gold bringing it to Gavin Taylor.”
Knots: “Gavin Taylor might not have expected a burst of action. He’s struggling
to keep up right now with the pace Jay Gold as set.”
Gavin pushes up to his feet, dusts his shoulders off and turn. There’s a boot
to the gut, followed by a snapmare. Jay Gold back
pedals before running forward with a dropkick to the back of the head. This
launches Gavin up from the seated position into the ropes where he almost falls
through to the outside. Jay Gold floats over the top rope, landing on the apron.
He comes running across the apron, delivers a running knee strike. Gavin flies
up onto his feet and Jay Gold grabs the top rope, throws himself over to take
Gavin down with another cross body.
Sharper: “Gold takes flight! Jay Gold has Gavin pinned to the canvas!”
1…
2-
Sharper: “Gavin Taylor gets the shoulder up!”
Knots: “This match has been all Jay Gold so far. The Man Would Be King is in
trouble.”
Sharper: “This is not how Gavin Taylor has pictured the start to the match.
You’re right. He’s in trouble here.”
Jay Gold swarms onto Gavin Taylor with some forearms hammered before pulling
Gavin back to his feet. He underhooks both the arms
but Gavin Taylor slaps Gold’s arms away. Gavin reaches up and gouges the eye.
He stomps down onto the foot. He lifts the stunned Jay Gold and delivers a
sidewalk slam into the center of the ring. Gavin drops down to one knee, rubs
his head from the earlier knee strike as the crowd boos him.
Sharper: “Gavin Taylor… through unscrupulous means… has halted Jay’s momentum.”
Knots: “Ava St. Claire must be relieved. This match started out as a disaster
for Gavin but he might have put an end to that.”
Jay Gold rolls over onto the ropes. He pulls himself up. Gavin off his feet
steps over and out of nowhere, Jay Gold hits the cutter. Gavin body bounces and
lands bellyside up. Jay hurries to the corner and
climbs up onto the top rope. The crowd cheers loudly. Swanton bomb off the top
rope but Gavin rolls out of the ring to escape it. Gold gets nothing both
canvas.
Sharper: “Crash and burn. Gold’s hurting. Gavin’s on the outside trying to
recover.”
Knots: “Gavin needing to regroup. He bought some time to breathe, to recover.
But is it going to be enough?”
Jay Gold climbs to his feet, stares down Gavin who is rubbing his jaw on the
outside. Jay Gold flies forward and dives through the ropes in attempt to
strike with a diving spear but Gavin leaps up, catches the projectile Jay Gold
with a dropkick, leading to a messy midair collision. Both men are down on the
outside of the ring.
Knots: “Oh my god, he killed Jay!”
Sharper: “Perfectly timed. Jay is down on the outside. Gavin is in better shape
from the looks of it, he’s at least stirring as the referee is counting.”
[1] Gavin Taylor uses the ring steps as a guide to his feet. Jay Gold is still
rolling on the floor mats, withering in pain. [2] Jay Gold rolls to the ring
apron and clings onto the apron. [3] He pulls himself to his feet but before he
can do anything there’s Gavin Taylor with a running high knee. Gold stumbles backwards.
[4] Gavin catches Gold, lifts him up, and delivers a vertical suplex onto the ring ramp! [5] Gavin is up onto one knee as
he looks at his opponent. Jay Gold is holding his head and shoulder in pain.
[6] Gavin Taylor walks to the ring and rolls in underneath the bottom rope,
getting a chorus of boos from the crowd. [7] Jay Gold stirs, slowly crawling
towards the ring. [8] He fights to his feet. [9] He runs towards the ring- he
makes it before the ten count! He rolls in but he’s immediately bombarded with
stomps for Gavin Taylor.
Sharper: “Jay Gold almost lost this match via count out there. Close call.”
Knots: “Gavin is going to town with those stomps. He’s enjoying this now. After
all, he has turned the tides of this match. Right now, Jay Gold is in trouble.”
Sharper: “You can hear Gavin taunting Jay Gold. He’s saying this is his fault
too!”
Referee pulls Gavin back. Gold retreats underneath the ropes before sneaking
onto the apron. He pulls himself up. Gavin Taylor reaches forward to grab him
but Jay Gold delivers a shoulder through the ropes. He vaults over the rope,
catches the arms of Gavin, and sends him flying, skull first into the canvas
with a crucifix pin!
Sharper: “Shoulders down!”
1….
2….
Sharper: “Gold gets a two count. Gavin Taylor caught off guard. Jay Gold’s
dangerous as always. Able to strike out of nowhere.”
Knots: “Just when you think Gavin Taylor is in the driver’s seat, Jay Gold
flipped the dynamics of this match on its head.”
Gold grabs the head of Gavin Taylor, pulls him to his feet. He runs over to the
ropes, steps up, spins around, tornado DDT that plants Taylor horizontally.
Gold lets out a yell to garner a pop before he takes the legs of Gavin Taylor
and slaps on a figurefour leg lock. Gavin immediately
flails around, yelling in pain as the pain flares up his nerves.
Sharper: “Figure four leglock. Jay Gold’s going to try to make Gavin tap out!”
Knots: “Imagine after all that bellyaching, all that griping about Jay Gold’s
decision to choose Xander Valentine, how it’s all Jay’s fault that Gavin got
hurt… Gavin Taylor ended up tapping out.”
Sharper: “It would show him.”
Gavin Taylor manages to roll over, reversing the pressure. Jay Gold rolls
through again, correcting the hold. Taylor screams in pain but the new position
is within reach of the bottom rope. The referee calls for a rope break. Jay
Gold immediately lets go. He stalks Gavin. Gavin finds his feet. There’s a hard
knee to the gut, taking the wind out of him. Jay Gold goes for the Golden
Moment- no, it’s counted into an arm drag. Gold rolls through onto his feet but
he’s taken off them shortly after with a Real Men Uses Lariats! Gold rolls over
on his hands and knees. Gavin Taylor stiffly kicks him in the side. Gold falls
back onto his knees now, holding his side, staring challengingly at Taylor.
Taylor rushes into the ropes and comes back with the All-Starmaker!
Knots: “This could be it!”
Sharper: “All-Star Maker!”
Knots: “The pin!”
1…
2…
Sharper: “3- Jay Gold kicks out at the last second.”
Gavin rolls off, holding his head, holding three fingers up but the referee
explains that it was only two. Gavin claps down onto both sides of his face,
trying to lock in on this match. He shakes his head, slightly angrily before
grabbing Jay Gold. He drags Gold to his feet but Gold strikes immediately with
a jawbreaker. He follows up with a clothesline that gets the crowd cheering.
Gavin scrambles to his feet and there’s a hurricanrana!
Sharper: “Gold traps Gavin!”
1…
2…
3-
Shaper: “Gavin almost fell victim to that hurricanarana.
Gold almost pulled off a heist.”
Knots: “Gavin’s is frazzled right now. You can tell. He didn’t expect this much
of resistance from Jay Gold.”
Gavin hurries to his feet he runs right into a northern lights suplex from Gold. Gold rolls through onto his feet, runs
towards the ropes, springboard moonsault lands him
across Gavin’s chest. He hooks the leg:
1….
2….
Sharper: “3! No- the referee says Gavin Taylor kicked out. Two close calls in
quick succession. Jay Gold knows what he must do to finish this.”
Knots: “He’s warming up. He’s getting ready.”
Gavin is allowed to find his feet. He turns around and there’s another knee but
Gavin catches it. He spins Gold around, 360, lifts Gold up right into a
spinebuster. Gavin bounces back and falls backwards into the ropes. Gold arches
his back in pain as he finds his feet again. Desperation Buzz-Beater takes Gold
right off his feet!
Sharper: “Desperation Buzz-Beat! Gavin covers!”
1…
2…
Sharper: “Gold explodes out of that pin. What else does Gavin have to do to put
away the Hall of Famer?”
Knots: “Gold showing his heart. He’s refusing to lose.”
Gavin leads Gold to his feet, but Gold shakes off the arms. He begins to
barrage Gavin with forearms. He gets ready to back up but he’s booted in the gut
by Gavin. Gavin lifts him up onto his shoulder! Highlight of the Night!
Sharper: “Highlight of the Night!”
Knots: “The cover!”
1…

Sharper: “Gavin Taylor takes home the win!”
Gavin Taylor rolls off, holding his head as he raises his arm. “Whoa Is
Me" by Down With Webster starts to play over the arena
Backstage, Xander Valentine is
present in his ring gear. Alongside him, is the scantily cladded Artemis, with
hands on her hips. Xander Valentine is taping up his right wrist as
Spirit Dansby steps up to him, with a microphone in hand.
Spirit: “I’m here with Xander Valentine, maybe one of the most hated
individuals in SCW today. Seems like he’s getting prepared for his match in a
short while against Lucas Knight. Any message you want to send to Lucas Knight
or the rest of SCW before your match?”
Xander stared at Spirit for a moment. He turns towards the camera, tilting the
microphone towards him.
Xander: “Tonight, I’m going to earn my hundredth victory in the SCW ring. Over
100 foes have been executed during my career. I’ve fought through adversity.
I’ve fought through backstage bullshit. I fought through every obstacle to
stand here today. I’m told that I no longer have a place here in SCW. I’m
treated, like I’m dying breed. But I’m not dying, not today and I’ll do what I
always done, and that is carve my place in this company. If I have to spill a
little blood. That’s what I’m going to do.”
Spirit: “Lucas Knight doesn’t seem at all intimidated by you, Xander. In fact,
he seems eager to ‘go Monster Hunting’. He has called you out. He wants this
match. He believes he can slay the beast.”
Xander: “Lucas Knight, brave but stupid. See, while Regan Street likes to
accessorize with cute monikers, the Hellcat believes she grasps what hell is.
Hell is on here. Hell is in that ring when I’m standing across for you. Lucas
Knight, he’s lamb for the slaughter. I don’t care about his past accolades. I
don’t care about his rich history. I do, however, care about his ties to Regan.
Regan, welcome to my personal nightmare, catered for you and you only. This
isn’t over. Watch, helplessly, while I dismantle Lucas Knight and then drop his
carcass at your feet. Don’t send others to fight your battles, little girl.”
Spirit: “Rumors have spread that Regan Street is contemplating retirement if
she fails to achieve her goal tonight, that is to take home the SCW Tag Team
titles. Your thoughts?”
Xander shakes his head, cracks up with some laughter. He stares into the
camera.
Xander: “That only proves that I’m right not to respect her. She’s not like
Selena. She isn’t worthy. While I have fought for the last two years to get to
this point. While I have waited for her to finally live true to her words, to
back up her threats. Where has she been? Chasing after gold like a dog to a
bone. Finding every excuse. She’s been given ample opportunities to step up.
Like a child, if she doesn’t get what she wants, she’s going to take her ball
and go home? For all I care, she can give it up. Let her cower in retirement.
She’s proven that I was right all along.”
Spirit: “Thanks, Xander. Now back to you, Adam and Jonathan.”
The Handsome Devils Club (David & Jason Helms) vs. The Wonderland
“Handsome
Devils Club” by Purelove plays as the crowd cheers. A
few moments pass before we see the tuk tuk drive out from the back and slow at the middle of the
entrance way. The crowd cheers as David Helms rides shotgun as Jason Helms
drives it.
Phillips:
“The following contest is scheduled for onefall and
has a thirty minute time limit. First, from Los Angeles, California, they are
David Helms and Jason Helms, the Handsome Devils Club!”
He
then suddenly floors it, getting some significant speed for a tuk tuk and stopping just before
the mats. David turns to Jason and Jason smirks as David gets out and runs over
to the ring and slides in. He gets up and looks around the ring before jumping
up and hitting the self-high five. Jason Helms climbs the steps and climbs up
to the middle turnbuckle and looks around. He hops into the ring and spins around
before looking out at the crowd. The Helms brothers walk around the ring as the
crowd continues to cheer for both.
Sharper:
“David Helms and Jason Helms about to go to war against the Wonderland tonight.
We don’t know which two.”
Knots:
“But we know the Helmses are ready for whatever is in
front of them. Damn it! Get me a rum, assholes!”
Sharper:
“Maybe you can celebrate with them after.”
Knots:
“I was going to save that for when Lucas Knight defeats Xander Valentine!”
“Villain” by Wildfire begins to
play as the arena goes dark except for a spotlight as Alice Ames walks out to
the center of it. The camera shows a close up as Alice takes a psychedelic
colored blow pop and seductively licks it as the arena lights change to wild
psychedelic colors as Cain Adams appears with Giovanni Aries riding piggyback
on him. Alice continues to lick on the blow while Giovanni Aries has a
cigarette hanging in his mouth.
Phillips: “Their opponents, from
Black Rock Desert, Nevada, they are Cain Adams, Alice Ames, and Giovanni Aries,
The Wonderland!”
He puffs on it for a minute
before sticking it in Cain Adams mouth. Giovanni Aries hysterically laughs out
and points toward the ring. They get about halfway down before stopping at the tuk tuk. Giovanni pats Cain and
he stops. Giovanni steps down and looks at the tuk tuk. The crowd looks on as Alice skips over and looks at
it. Giovanni then pulls on the back of it, dumping a bucket of ice. He then
looks around at it as Jason and David turn to one another before both run to
the ropes and slide down to the floor. The crowd cheers.
Sharper: “Giovanni Aries
stopping at the tuk tuk!”
Knots: “He wants more rum.
They took the bottle on Breakdown!”
Sharper: “And Jason and David
Helms coming out to fight them there!”
Jason and David run over and
Cain steps up and kicks David in the ribs as Jason runs over and Alice climbs
onto the back of the tuk tuk
and dives onto him, but Jason side steps and sends her into the barricade.
Alice rolls over to the floor. Giovanni then reaches into the back as Jason
spins around and goes to grab him, but Giovanni throws some of the rum into the
face of Jason. Jason staggers back, rubbing his eyes and Giovanni watches him
and grabs the ice bucket and turns and nails him with it. Jason hits the floor
as Giovanni spins around and goes over to the driver’s side of the tuk tuk as Cain grabs David and
shoves him back to the mats. David gets up and Cain moves over and clubs him in
the back. Match referee, Steve Hollinsworth, struggles to get control.
Sharper: “This is a war
alright. David Helms in trouble as the big man, Cain Adams, just clubbing him
and what is Giovanni Aries doing?”
Knots: “I think he’s going to
learn how to drive!”
Jason remains down in the
entrance way, holding his head and Giovanni looks at the tuk
tuk and turns it on. He looks around and smiles
before cackling. He then glances backward as Alice Ames hops onto the side of
the tuk tuk and Giovanni
presses down on the gas. The tuk tuk
drives in reverse and Jason just gets out of the way. Giovanni slams on the
breaks. Alice hops down and runs over to Jason who kicks her in the ribs and
nails her with a forearm shot.
Sharper: “Giovanni Aries was
going to run over Jason Helms!”
Knots: “Well he sees Jason as
another Judas. Of course he’d try something extreme. Look what he’s done to Ace
Marshall or James Evans!”
Jason then scoops Alice up and
slams her on the floor. Giovanni now starts to drive the tuk
tuk forward. Jason backs up a bit and moves out of
the way and Giovanni narrowly misses Alice. Jason then spins around and climbs
onto the tuk tuk and grabs
Giovanni and starts to pull on him. We cut back to ringside to see Cain
whipping David Helms toward the steel steps. David hops over the steps and
stops. Cain turns and runs over and steps onto the steps, but David dropkicks
them. Cain loses his balance and falls chest first into them. He staggers back.
David then jumps to the steps and hits a diving flying forearm. The crowd
roars. Back at the tuk-tuk, Giovanni is struggling as Jason has him in a side
headlock and is trying to drag him out of the vehicle.
Sharper: “David Helms with the
dropkick and Cain Adams discombobulated!”
Knots: “And Giovanni Aries is
finding out what it’s like to get a roadside stop in Texas!”
Sharper: “Jason Helms dragging
Aries out of the tuk tuk.
We don’t even know who is competing in this, but they’re fighting everyone. The
Helmses are!”
Aries kicks frantically as Jason
gets him out and throws him down. Jason then looks at him before stomping him
in the chest and then again and again. The crowd roars as Giovanni covers up
and Jason hammers away. Back at ringside, David Helms mounts Cain Adams and
hammers away on him with repeated right hands. David steps up to his feet and
looks around as the crowd cheers. Cain rolls over as Jason steps back and Alice
jumps onto his back. Jason struggles as Alice pulls back and we realise she has
a piece of plastic of some sort and is choking Jason with it. Jason struggles
and Alice pulls him back, getting on his feet before throwing him down,
spinning him into the front of the tuk tuk. Jason rolls over. David then starts to walk over
toward the tuk tuk. Alice
turns and looks at him and runs at him and jumps up, nailing him with a couple
of shots before landing on her feet. David covers up a bit.
Sharper; “Alice now turning to
David after sending Jason down!”
Knots: “It’s two against one
and it’s not like Lucas will be coming out here. He’s got Xander Valentine
later!”
Sharper: “But they seem to
have been prepared for this!”
Alice gets a couple more shots
in before David nails her in the ribs and then again before hitting a shoot
kick and jumping up with a spinning back kick to the jaw. Giovanni Aries then
runs at him and kicks him in the ribs and hooks him by the head and hits a DDT.
The crowd ohs and boos. David rolls over in pain.
Giovanni then grabs him and starts to drag him up. Jason starts to get up as
Alice rolls over. Cain Adams then steps over and Giovanni motions to him. With
Cain’s help they then drag David to the ring and roll him in. Cain slides in.
Steve Hollinsworth slides in and David starts to get up as Cain gets up.
Hollinsworth tries to get Cain back before David tells him to ring the bell.
Hollinsworth sighs and does, the bell sounds and the crowd roars. David gets up
in the corner and Cain runs over and kicks him in the ribs. He then hits a back
elbow to the jaw.
Sharper: “And now this match
is starting1 Giovanni Aries and Cain Adams depositing David Helms in the ring!”
Knots: “Who is Cain’s
partner?!”
Sharper: “I don’t know, but
now Giovanni Aries and Alice Ames are going over to Jason Helms!”
Cain elbows Helms again and
Hollinsworth counts as back in the entrance way, Giovanni Aries and Alice Ames
have Jason and Gio pulls Jason off only for Alice to
hit a low blow as Giovanni leans over.
Giovanni: “Do you like the
feeling of betrayal?! That’s only half of it! Half of it!”
Alice then nails him with a
hard forearm and then another and another. Jason shoves her back and Giovanni
clubs him in the back before turning and grabbing him and dragging him over and
running him face first into the ringpost. Jason spins
off. Giovanni then looks at him as Cain pulls Jason out and hits a sidewalk
slam. He goes for the pin.
1!
2!
David kicks out. Giovanni then
motions to Alice and Alice walks over to the corner and hops up, ready for the
tag. Cain however grabbing David by the head and drags him up and nails him
with a hard right. David falls back to the corner as Giovanni Aries runs over
to Jason as he stirs and kicks him in the ribs. Jason rolls over and into the
barricade. The camera gets a good shot of Jason’s face, showing that he’s been
cut open by the shot to the ringpost.
Sharper: “And Jason Helms is
busted open! Giovanni Aries spilling his blood!”
Knots: “And Jason is hurt!
David is on his own here!”
Cain goes over to David and whips
him across the ring. He runs after and David gets his boot up. The crowd
cheers. Cain stumbles back. David runs out and nails him with a hard right and
then a kick to the ribs. Cain goes for a haymaker, but David ducks and jumps
forward only for backflip back and hit the Wake Up Call. The crowd cheers. Cain
rolls over. David slowly starts to get up and Jason rolls over to the ring. He
grits his teeth and looks out as David looks over to Giovanni Aries. David then
runs at him. Giovanni backs up and Cain gets up only for David to hit a
spinning heel kick. He goes for the pin.
1!
2!
Cain kicks out. David rolls
over and Alice enters the ring and clubs David in the back and then again and
again. The crowd boos. Cain grabs at the ropes as Giovanni looks in smiling.
Cain slowly stirs as David gets to the ropes and Alice goes for a sleeper,
jumping onto David’s back. David stumbles back. He then turns and flips her
over. Alice hits the mat. She rolls over and just then, Cain kicks David in the
ribs. He then hits a boot to the face. David turns and Jason gets up on the
floor as Cain turns and runs into the ropes. Just as he bounces off, Jason
slides in, a steel chair in his hands, from under the ring. He gets up and as
Cain goes for the Breaking the Control, he spins through and swings his arm,
right into the chair that Jason holds. The crowd ohs
and Cain yells out and holds his arm.
Sharper: “Cain just drove his
arm into that chair!”
Knots: “And Jason doesn’t
care. He’s been busted. He’s got a weapon!”
The referee immediately calls
for the bell, which rings throughout. Cain winces and turns and Jason gets
David’s attention before holding the chair up and David jumps up and hits the
Nightmare on Helms Street. The crowd cheers and Cain falls to the mat. Alice
slides out as the bell sounds again. Jason turns and swings the chair toward
Giovanni Aries, throwing it at him. Aries moves out of the way as the crowd
roars.
Phillips: “Here are your
winners, via disqualification, the Wonderland!”
The crowd boos. Jason backs
up, blood covering his face, as David steps up. Cain walks around the ring,
holding his arm in pain as Alice looks at the ring. Giovanni smirks.
Sharper: “Jason Helms saying
enough of this and bringing in the chair! He’s a bloody mess and Cain Adams,
his arm may be broken!”
Knots: “But the Helms boys
standing tall and I think Jason Helms just sent a message. If this is going to
be a war, let’s just make it just that!”
The crowd cheers for the
Handsome Devils Club as Giovanni looks at the ring.
Giovanni: “Is this what you
want, Jason? This is what you’ll get!”
Giovanni laughs a bit as Cain
grimaces in pain and we cut away.
We see a shot of Steve Griffin hitting the Decimator on CHBK
at the first Rise to Greatness before cutting to a shot of Kennedy Street
holding the SCW World Championship over her head from Rise to Greatness XV. A
shot of David Helms standing on the top of a scaffold follows before showing Shilo Valiant walking to the ring. Shots of Dark Fantasy
holding the SCW World Tag Team Championship, Rachel Foxx hitting the Foxx Girl
Stunner, assisted with a plane of glass, on Shorty Jr. and Simon Lyman having
his arm raised by Donovan Kayl followed.
“Want to experience history? Or make it?”
Several shots from past Rise to Greatness events fly on
the screen before cutting to black. The Rise to Greatness XVII logo comes up on
the screen.
“Rise to Greatness XVI

The scene slowly fades to black.
Glory
Braddock vs. Ace Marshall
A countdown starts on the big
screen in fast progression from five to one before "Adrenalize" hits
the speakers and the spotlights start to spin and focus in on the stage. The
fans erupt in cheers as on stage Ace Marshall steps out with Oakley shades and
a black reflective jacket. Cassidy Carter comes out to join him by his side.
ADRENALIZE ME
He pauses before raises his arms up for the crowd as strobe lights break out
throughout the arena for the crowd in different shades of red, blue and green
in rapid succession. Smoke erupts from underneath them and along the ramp way.
He snaps his fingers and bobs his head before pointing out to the crowd.
Cassidy smiles broadly while stepping in a rhythm around the stage to match the
beat.
Phillips: "Making his way to the ring, from Houston, Texas, accompanied by
Cassidy Carter, The Bird Slayer, mud slinger and first of his title, Ace
Marshall!"
The two make their way down the ramp. Reaching the ring Ace slides in before
standing up and running his hands through his hair, singing along with the
song. Cassidy climbs up on to the apron. 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 it, landing inside the ring on her feet before
turning and throwing her arms up and walking toward the center of the ring just
as Ace makes his way to the corner. He climbs up it before looking out into the
crowd while thrusting an arm up. Dropping down after a moment he turns his back
to the crowd before removing his jacket and shades. He sets them to the side of
the apron for an official to grab just as the match is about to be underway.
The first chords of "When Legends Rise" begins to play over the PA
system.
Phillips: From London, England, she is The British Bombshell GLORY BRADDOCK!
Glory Braddock steps out onto the stage, wearing her ring gear consisting of
purple spandex pants, boots, and a purple top. She really does look like a million
bucks and grins from ear to ear, gazing out at the crowd for a moment before
making her way down the entrance ramp.
“It's burning down, it's burning high
when ashes fall the legends rise
We burned it out oh my oh why
When ashes fall the legends rise”
“Throat is dry, my vision's fading
I'm paralyzed and left here waiting
Taking time just one step forward
Won't lose my mind, I'm here to stay”
The British Bombshell steps up the steel steps and then onto the ring apron.
She poses momentarily on the apron, allowing people to take snapshots before
stepping through the ropes and into the ring. Once in the ring Glory
heads to the center of the ring and poses once more. Then the music dies down
slowly.
Sharper: “These two were partners, along with David Helms, last month as they
won the 2020 Trios Tournament.”
Knots: “It’s the Best in the World, Glory Braddock taking on three time SCW
World Champion, Ace Marshall.”
The ref calls for the bell. Ace and Glory meet in the middle and go for a
tie-up. Glory drives her knee into Ace’s midsection, before pulling him down to
the mat with a crossface.
Ace: “Oh, Good lord!”
The ref checks on Ace, who shakes his head no, with Glory pulling back as much
as possible. Ace still refuses, before pushing up with his free arm, pushing
Glory onto her shoulders. The ref makes the count, as Glory keeps the hold
locked in.

attempt.”

a jackass.”

wrestling.”
Knots: “While Ace is all about that entertainment, bay bay!”

still for Bree Lancaster vs. Kimberly Williams then comes up on the screen.

and forth. Two very different personalities, coming to clash here tonight!”
A
recap video plays showing the history leading to Bree Lancaster vs. Kimberly
Williams.
Bree
Lancaster vs. Kimberly Williams
SCW United
States Championship
The lights dim as a voice
backed by piano music fill the arena.
{That's the price you pay.... Leave behind your heartache, cast away
Just another product of today.... Rather be the hunter than the prey
And you're standing on the edge, face up... 'cause
you're a NATURAL}
As the heavy music of Imagine Dragons kicks in the lights come back up and Bree
Lancaster is standing on the stage, her arms spread wide. Bree looks up as
white sparks shower down behind her from the top of the set to the stage. Scott
Burnside appears behind her. The crowd boos heavily.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall
and has a thirty minute time limit and is for the SCW United States
Championship. First, the challenger, making her way to the ring, from New
Orleans, Louisiana and being accompanied by Scott Burnside, she is Bree
Lancaster!”
The chorus continues as Bree and Scott make their way down the ramp, Bree
holding her arms out all the way to the ring. She stops at the steps and Scott
goes up ahead of her. Bree follows and Scott holds the ropes open for her to
step through. He goes to the apron as Bree walks to the center of the ring,
turning as she does. She then walks a circle in the ring showing off, before
going to the corner.
Sharper: “The first of many
matches involving Sienna Swann, the Beauty Factory, those alliances.”
Knot: “And Bree is looking to get
back her US Title, before going to be the special enforcer later tonight in
that Thunderdome match.”
Sharper: “Could set the tone
for Sienna tonight. Could this be the night they want? Where they regain the
gold?”
Knots: “And if you add Jordan
Majors later, gain most of it.”
The opening chords of “Look
What You Made Me Do” by Taylor begin to play. Kimberly Williams steps out onto
the stage to a loud, mostly positive, reaction from the fans. The SCW United
States Championship is around her waist. A sinister smirk is on her face as she
ponders what she is about to do tonight.
Phillips: “Her opponent, from
Boston, Massachusetts, she is the SCW United States Champion, the Wild Card,
Kimberly Williams!”
She winks at the fans before
pointing towards the ring and making a beeline towards it. She slides
into the ring underneath the bottom rope. Kimberly then poses in the
center of the ring to another loud reaction from the fans. The music
slowly dies down and Kimberly goes to a corner to await the start of the match.
She takes off her title and holds it out. The official takes it and holds it up
and the SCW United States Championship logo comes across the screen before
fading to the bottom corner. Bree just looks at Kim, with a glare, as Kim
smirks at her.
Sharper: “Kim has that look.
That look like the wheels are turning.”
Knots: “Let’s hope that’s bad
for Bree!”
Sharper: “Bree was caught offguard a month ago, when she straight-up wrestled her.
But since then, she’s been complaining that Kim stole the title. She won it
outright. Now, she’ll need to fight to get it back and Kim will need to do the
same to hold onto it!”
The
bell sounds. Kim and Bree circle the ring as the crowd roars. Bree continues to
watch Kim as Kim eyes her and the two quickly lock-up in the middle of the ring
with a collar and elbow tie-up. The crowd roars as they push back on one
another and Bree turns into a side headlock. She smiles. She pulls back and Kim
reaches around. Kim pulls her back and into the ropes before firing her off.
Bree bounces off the ropes and Kim steps forward and Bree shoulders her down.
She snaps at her as the crowd boos. She runs into the ropes. Kim rolls toward
her. Bree hops over and bounces off the other side. Kim gets up and leapfrogs
over Bree. Bree bounces off the other side and Kim drops down again. Bree hops
over and bounces off the other side. Kim rolls toward her again. Bree hops over
and smirks before Kim rolls toward her again and Bree jumps up and goes for an
elbow drop. Kim rolls out of the way. Kim gets up and Bree gets up and Kim hits
an arm drag. She holds onto the arm as the crowd roars.
Sharper:
“And there’s the oddball nature.”

“She was caught in a loop. Let Bree control where to change it and saw it
coming!”\
Sharper:
“Now control of the arm.”
Kim
holds on as Bree starts to get up and Kim then wrenches the arm. Bree winces.

“But getting to the ropes. I never like that. The ropes have been bad for both
so far. Both have had moments they’ve not be friendly, if you will!”

through and locks in a figure four before bridging up into the Crescent Lock.
The crowd boos.
Sharper:
“Kim was using that unique offense, but then Bree saw an opening!”

“It was a risk. She was hoping to concuss Bree, but Bree countered for more
damage to the knee!”

“And now right into the Crescent Lock! The move that effectively ended Amy Chastaine’s in-ring career!”
Kim
winces in pain and Bree bridges up. She smiles as she does. The official checks
on Kim, trying to see if she’ll give up, but she refuses to. Shaking her head
and reaching around before starting to bite on her finger. She then yells out

use the ring to her advantage!”

Phillips:
“Here is your winner, via pinfall, and NEW SCW United
States Champion, Bree Lancaster!”
Bree
rolls off and looks up, almost relieved.
Sharper:
“Bree Lancaster using the leg to get the opening! Kim Williams tried to get her
down, but Bree didn’t forget about the leg.”
Knots:”
And this time, didn’t take her lightly. Instead, she caught the Classifier.
Damn it!”
Sharper:
“And now, one title back in the Beauty Factory camp. Could this be a preview of
what could happen later tonight in the Thunderdome?!”
Bree
slowly stirs as Scott runs over and grabs the SCW United States Championship.
He smiles and walks over and slides into the ring. Bree turns and Scott extends
the title to her. Bree takes it and grabs it, hugging it before falling to the
corner. She smiles as she looks at Kim in disgust. Scott the raises Bree’s arm
as the crowd boos. Bree then celebrates a bit as Kim winces in pain.
We cut
backstage to see Sienna Swann smiling as she turns from the television in her
locker room.
Sienna:
“She got it.”
Chris:
“Good. Didn’t want you having any doubt. Tonight is OUR night.”
Sienna:
“Exactly. Just like Bree, one on one, Kim wasn’t going to beat her again. No
way…tonight, James Evans…no chance.”
Chris
walks over and kisses Sienna.
Chris:
“Naturally.”
Xiomara
Diaz then walks into the room with Aaron Demitra
behind her.
Demitra: “Do you
understand? I’m overseeing this. And you need to call the fall fairly.”
Xiomara
sighs and turns.
Xiomara:
“Your pathetic attempt…sorry, no. Sasha’s pathetic attempt. I will call it down
the middle because Sienna and Chris…they don’t need to rely on some BS like a
quick count. They’re going to make sure there is no doubt that James Evans
isn’t the champion, right.”
Sienna:
“Exactly. So tell Sasha to just watch and enjoy the crowning of the real World
Champion.”
Demitra turns
and walks off.
Chris:
“Plus, we’re going to have some fun in there.”
Sienna:
“Damn right.”
Chris:
“Going to remind people that James isn’t the one they should be afraid of.”
Chris
smirks as Sienna smiles and kisses him again as we cut away.
Datura vs.
Aaron Blackbourne
All of a sudden, the lights go
out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans. The distorted sounds of “10 Inch
Nails” by Audiomachine begin to play, and as it does
spotlights and strobe lights of all different colors randomly begin turning on
and off in random parts of the arena in tune with the song. The Tron slowly
comes to life, displaying a chaotic clashing of multiple colors reminiscent of
the "video" you'd see while listening to a song in Windows Media
Player back in the day, with the exception that various random elemental
effects like lightning, fire and ice burst into view on the heavier beats as
well.
Through some of the random multicolored spotlights if they turn on close enough
to the entrance briefly, we see that a thick fog has overtaken the stage, and
the movements suggests that a figure has already strolled straight through it.
As the lights continue their random dance across the arena, one in particular
that remains a pure white color, while keeping with the beat of the song like
all the others, is slowly moving along with a figure that's making his way down
the ramp with a grin on his face and a determined look in his eyes. The figure
is none other than Aaron Blackbourne, strolling along
and snapping his fingers to the tune as he reaches ringside.
Blackbourne suddenly leaps onto the apron and quickly
climbs so that he’s got one foot on the top turnbuckle, taking a moment to gaze
out through the darkness and chaotic lighting before suddenly leaping from the
top rope and rolling through to a stand as he hits the mat. The second he's
back on his feet he extends his arms and violently spins around before stopping
and throwing his head back with a laugh, which stops the strobes and spotlights
and seems to momentarily bathe the entire arena in every color light available
before the scene returns to normal. Now that we finally see Blackbourne
properly, he see that his tights are a rainbow of dark colors with the
occasional white lightning bolt randomly cutting through the spectrum. His left
knee pad is green and designed to look like it's made of snakeskin while his
right knee pad is an obnoxious glittery gold. His left arm sleeve is blue and
designed with an ice texture while his right arm sleeve is designed to look
like it's made of steel. His boots are brown and appear to be lined in
tan-colored fur in a few spots. Scattered across his body is various painted
designs of seemingly random scenes depicting monsters wreaking havoc in various
ways, aside from the largest one on his back that looks more like a black hole
with a rainbow spectrum forming its outermost ring. The creative soul's grin
slowly fades once the audience has had a chance to take in what he's become for
the night as he backs into his corner, looking ready to fight.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall and has a thirty
minute time limit. First, from Seattle, Washington, he is Aaron Blackbourne!”
Sharper: “Aaron Blackbourne, following up on Breakdown, showing up almost
dressed as Datura would, with the earthiness and primal aspects emphasized
here!”
Knots: “He’s not going to let
this opportunity go by. He’s got Datura. He’s got someone who has respect just
by showing up. Someone who fundamentally changed who Regan Street is!”
Sharper: “The question is
while this has gotten him in the mindset, perhaps to fight fire with fire
against Datura, what will Datura respond with!”
The arena turns black. On the
screen, scenes of post-apocalyptic landscapes haunt the darkness. Over the
speakers, an eerie synth pad sets the mood as a deep, raspy voice begins
speaking:
“The car’s on fire, and
there’s no driver at the wheel, and the sewers are all muddied with a thousand
lonely suicides, and a dark wind blows…
The government is corrupt and we’re on so many drugs with the radio on and the
curtains drawn. We’re trapped in the belly of this horrible machine, and the
machine is bleeding to death. The sun has fallen down, and the billboards are
all leering, and the flags are all dead at the top of their poles.
It went like this: The buildings tumbled in on themselves. Mothers clutching
babies picked through the rubble and pulled out their hair. The skyline was
beautiful on fire, all twisted metal stretching upward, everything washed in a
thin orange haze
I said ‘Kiss me. You’re beautiful. These are truly the last days. You grabbed
my hand and we fell into it like a daydream or a fever.”
A chorus of strings play a melancholic tune as a pale spotlight settles at the
top of the ramp. There, it falls on Datura, dressed in a pair of tight, dark
jeans and a black hoodie, but her face covered, as she looks down at the
rampway. She doesn’t respond to the crowd, while the camera focuses on panning
across the crowd.
Phillips: “His opponent, from
Tampa, Florida, she is Datura!”
Datura remains looking at the
floor, her hair can be seen hanging out of from the hood. She then reaches the
ring, ignoring the fans before rolling into the ring. But the moment she gets
up, her face still down, Aaron notices something is off.
Sharper: “Datura on her way to
the ring-“
Knots: “Is she wearing lifts
or something? She’s much taller. Couldn’t see it on the monitor at first, but
look at how tall she is-“
Sharper: “That’s not Datura!”
Aaron steps forward, pointing
to her, turning to the official, Steve Hollinsworth, only for “Datura” to run
forward and kick Aaron in the ribs and nail him with a back chop and then a
hard right. Blackbourne falls to the corner as
“Datura” flips back the hoodie, causing the hair to flip back too, revealing
the masked face of Shilo Valiant!
Sharper: “What the hell?! Shilo Valiant has dressed
himself up as Datura!”
Knots: “But where’s Datura?
She wanted this. She asked for the challenge!”
Shilo then kicks Blackbourne in the ribs over and over again before
Hollinsworth steps up and goes to pull him back. Shilo
spins and pushes him down. He rolls through and Blackbourne
pulls himself up. Shilo turns and smiles as the crowd
roars, some cheering, some booing. Blackbourne then
lunges at him and goes for a spinning back fist, but Shilo
ducks and smirks before Blackbourne steadies himself
only for Shilo to hit a double leg takedown and then
start to hammer away on Blackbourne. Blackbourne covers up as Shilo
smiles the entire time, nailing him over and over and over again.
Sharper: “Blackbourne
had a moment, but he’s so flustered by this. We expected Shilo
Valiant here, but not like this!”
Knots: “Yeah, I know when I
think of Shilo Valiant, I think of him pretending to
be Datura!”
Sharper: “The distance made it
less obvious, but the moment that Shilo entered the
ring, Blackbourne knew something was wrong.”
Knots: “Something definitely
is wrong! He’s getting pounded on by a hall of famer!”
Shilo nails him a couple more times
before placing his hand in his face.
Shilo: “Come on Blacky! Didn’t see
that coming?!”
Blackbourne reaches up and tries to grab
at Shilo. The crowd cheers as he then grabs at his
mask, but this just allows Shilo to quickly grab his
arms and hold them up as Blackbourne struggles to get
free. Shilo steps up and looks down at him.
Shilo: “Thanks for playing along!”
He then places his foot on Blackbourne’s face and drives lifts him up and slams him
back down before holding his arms up and stomping away, causing Blackbourne to take the stomps to his chest and face,
completely unable to defend himself. The crowd starts to boo as Blackbourne takes stomp after stomp as Shilo
continues to smile the entire time. He then stops and grabs Blackbourne,
turning him over. He then locks in a cobra clutch and starts to pull on it. He
smiles some more.
Shilo: “Now….now…let’s see what you
can do, Blacky!”
Shilo keeps locking in the hold as
more officials come down from the back. The crowd boos some more as Blackbourne struggles. The officials reach the ring as the
scene fades to black.
We open up to a shot of someone cracking their knuckles.
This is followed by a shot of Xander Valentine leaning against a wall and
walking past. A few moments pass before we see a shot of James Evans smiling
and then walking out of a locker room. Sienna Swann and Chris Cannon are next
shown, walking past fans, while walking into a building, ignoring them all. Syren is seen walking with Ravyn
Taylor and Christy Matthews and we see someone reach out to Syren
only for Christy to step up and shove them down. Ravyn
just watches, stoically. We then see a shot of Alistaire
Allocco hopping up and down in the ring, ready to compete, nothing on his face.
We then see Giovanni Aries turning and walking away as a massive bonfire can be
seen burning. The camera focuses on the fire for a few moments.
“SCW presents Cold Blooded, live on pay per view, Sunday,
April 19!”
The bonfire remains crackling for several moments longer
before fading to black.
Xander
Valentine vs. Lucas Knight
Out go the lights with a flick
of a switch as all eyes focus onto the stage, just then the screen lights up as
the opening to Alpha King by Rev Theory begins to play over the P.A system.
Then and only then we see a series of words in italic writing phase in and out
on the big screen...
.Infamous.
.British.
.Legendary.
Spotlights all start to focus on the stage entrance now changing colours,
shades of red, white and blue and during that time a silhouette of a man can be
seen walking out onto the stage with a familiar aura of confidence. Just then
the final words explode onto the tron causing the
crowd to react accordingly as the music hit's into full swing...
.LUCAS KNIGHT.
The crowd's cheers fill the arena as the lights come back on fully to show
Lucas Knight standing on the stage looking at the crowd, he wears a while
leather jacket with the union jack emblazoned on it. He looks out to the crowd witha smirk and nods as their roar once again as David
Helms steps out beside him.
Phillips: "Ladies and Gentleman, hailing from Santa Monica, California. He
weighs in tonight at two-hundred and thirty pounds. Being Accompanied to the
ring by David Helms, He is the 2015 Trios Winner, He is representing the
Handsome Devils Club, He is the Alpha King, LUCAS KNIGHT!!"
Just then video of Lucas' career plays out on the tron
as the music ramps up even more. The Lucas and David bump fists and begin to
walk down towards the ring slapping hands of some fans in the front row
aisle's. Once they reach the bottom, Lucas slides under the bottom rope and
quickly scales one corner and looks out to the crowd with another smirk as he
now removes his jacket and hangs it over the steep post.
David looks up and nods as the two share a few words to each other before
Knight jumps down to the canvas and begins to pull at the top rope and warm up
for the match ahead.
Sharper: “Our next contest pits two legendary competitors against one another.
The recently returned Lucas Knight is ready to go to war with 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.
Knots: “And my good friend Xander Valentine standing in the ring. I hope Lucas
gives him hell.”
The referee calls for the bell and Lucas charges as does Xander. Lucas leaps
up, taking Xander down with a flying clothesline. Xander hits the mat and gets
up, only for Lucas to connect with a springboard dropkick. Xander hits the mat
and rolls over to the corner, getting to one knee, as he and Lucas lock eyes.
Sharper: “Lucas bringing the fight to the Executioner.”
Lucas smirks and motions for Xander to get up. Xander gets to his feet and
Xander tries to initiate a tie-up in the middle of the ring. Lucas goes to lock
up, but Xander throws a haymaker. Lucas dunks under, getting behind Xander.

dropping him with a reverse DDT.

Lucas gets to his feet, and pulls Xander up. He delivers a forearm, before
whipping Xander into the corner. Xander hits before exploding out of the

triangle choke. Xander maintains his balance, lifting Lucas up, before dropping

“Fade to Black” hits as Xander sits up, glaring at Lucas before slowly climbing
to his feet.
Sharper: “Xander Valentine victorious here tonight, winning his one hundredth
match in SCW, after a vicious display against Lucas Knight.”
Knots: “You can’t take anything away from Lucas. He brought the fight to
Xander.”
Xander is shown glaring at Lucas before he steps out and joins Artemis. They
are shown walking away as Xander looks at Lucas, who is slowly coming to in the
ring, before they head up the ramp, as we cut to the back.
Backstage,
we see James Evans pacing back and forth in one of the hallways.
Sharper:
“And we’ve heard from Sienna Swann. James Evans refused to speak to Jessica
Winters. He’s just pacing, getting ready for the war in front of him.”
Knots:
“Hearing that Regan Street also turned down an interview too. She’s focused.
James Evans focused. So many people seeing tonight as a big night. James Evans
knows he’s walking into war though and one where if he screws up, he will be
overwhelmed and destroyed. That’s what Sienna Swann, Chris Cannon and the whole
Beauty Factory wants to do!”
James
stops and leans against the wall and stretches out, taking a deep breath before
nodding and starting to pace again. The camera fades onto the SCW World
Championship which is placed against the wall on the floor by his feet.
Blake
Mason vs. Alistaire Allocco
The lights go out. A few
moments later, a white spotlight shines at the top of the ramp. In that
spotlight we see a man wearing a robe that "Blake Mason Experience"
embroidered in white. The lights to the rest of the arena come back on, the
chorus to "G.O.A.T" echoes through the loud speaker. Blake
Mason still has his back turned to the camera. Standing behind him is Jaxson
Sullivan, wearing a suit, looking like he is ready to knock someone’s head
off.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty
minute time limit. First, on his way to the ring, accompanied by Jaxson
Sullivan, he is Blake Mason!”
Blake heads to the ring at a
methodical pace. Reaching the steel steps, he walks up them, on to the apron,
steps into the ring. Jaxson isn't too far behind. They reach the center of the
ring. Blake turns his back to the main camera. He takes off his robe, hands it
to Jaxson. Blake is shown to be wearing black leather pants like wrestling
tights. He walks over to the nearest corner. By then, Jaxson is now standing
outside the ring, keeping an eye on his surroundings.
Sharper:
“It’s been a unique night so far here at Retribution 2020, but next, this one,
could be unique for other reasons. There’s no animus, but a contrast of styles
and more specifically, a desire to illuminate.”
Knots:
“Allocco, we’ve seen it. He won’t break the rules. Blake is trying to get him
to understand the way things really are. Especially if he’s going to make a
change in this company. But I don’t know. If Glory didn’t get that, if Ace
didn’t…will Blake succeed?”
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.
His presence incites a chorus of cheers from the crowd. 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.
Phillips: “His opponent, from
Rochester, New York, he is Alistaire Allocco!”
He begins to walk down the ramp with his dark eyes staring intently upon the
ring before him. He marches down with purpose, waving and smiling to the
children in the crowd. He stops at the bottom of the ramp for a moment, before
launching forward, sliding into the ring.
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.
Sharper: “Alistaire
Allocco ready to compete and that’s what he’s going to do.”
Knots: “I’m still wondering
why Jaxson Sullivan is out here. Kelcey Wallace isn’t
out here.”
Sharper: “Perhaps aiming to
keep this one on one.”
The bell sounds. Allocco looks
at Mason and Mason steps out. He stretches using the ropes and then the two
walk around the ring. They watch one another and then lock up in the middle of
the ring. The two push back on one another. Allocco then turns into a side
headlock. He then turns and grabs the arm and spins around and into a
hammerlock. Blake reaches down and then up. He grabs Alistaire’s
head. He then looks around and ducks back and under and into a side headlock of
his own. Alistaire then lifts him up and Blake drops
down and takes him over with a side headlock down. Alistaire
pushes him back and counters with a headscissors.
Blake kicks out. He gets up and Alistaire gets up and
the two look at one another before circling.
Sharper: “The first volley.
All even.”
Alistaire and Blake continue to watch
one another before stepping into a collar-and-elbow tie-up. They push back on
one another before Blake gets Alistaire back to the
ropes before Alistaire pushes off and sends Blake
into the ropes. They spin through and into the corner. Alistaire
gets Blake into the corner. The official calls for the break.

looks at Blake.
Blake: “If you won’t take the
shot, someone else will!”
Knots: “That’s the message!”
Sharper: “Blake quickly
ripping the bandaid!”
Alistaire steps out and shakes his head
and the two circle again before Alistaire moves in
and goes for a grapple. Blake blocks it and spins around him and drops down
into a drop toe hold. He then grabs Alistaire by the
hair and pulls him up and into a side headlock. He nails him with a hard right.
Alistaire moves back to the ropes. Blake follows over
and kicks him in the ribs and then again. He goes for a third shot but Alistaire blocks it. Blake hops on the leg and looks at Alistaire. Alistaire then drops down

Sharper: “And Allocco didn’t
take one shortcut in that all.”
Blake starts to get up and
Allocco holds on. Blake looks around and then reaches up and grabs Alistaire by the head and then by the hair. Allocco winces
as the official calls for the break, but Blake then pulls Alistaire

the eyes.
Sharper: “Blake intentionally
bending every rule!”
Knots: “If he’s going to make his
point, he’s going to saturate this match with it!”
Sharper: “And worst of all,
Allocco is leaving himself open to it!”
Alistaire steps forward, holding his
eyes and Blake then nails him with a hard clothesline to the back of Alistaire’s head. The crowd boos a bit as Blake rolls him

a chance to reset.”

just a convenient hold, but Blake quickly getting out of it!”
Sharper: “Alistaire

starts to head to the ring, undoing his cuffs and rolling up his sleeves.
Sharper: “And what is that man
doing here?”
Knots: “Blake noticing him and
Jaxson Sullivan too.”
Jaxson Sullivan walks around
as Blake turns back to Alistaire. He then grabs him and
hits a snap suplex. He holds on and swivels his hips
as Jaxson folds his arms. Adam walks over to him, pointing to the ring.
Adam: “Just here to help Blake
teach him a lesson!”
He goes to walk past, but
Jaxson shoves him back. Adam looks at him.
Adam: “Don’t you know who I

in his son’s face, this rift going on for months now!”
Knots: “And Blake is focusing
on Alistaire.”
Sharper: “Look out. More
company!”
Knots: “Damian Angel!”

to stay out of her match, but nothing about this one. And he’s got issues with

him.”

enough interaction with him as of late! But Sullivan is right there!”

Allocco!”
Damian Angel goes to the ring and
Sullivan walks over to stop him. Allocco turns his attention to Damian too. He
shakes his head and rolls to the floor. Damian looks in the ring and then backs
up. Blake stirs in the ring as Alistaire points to
the back. Damian looks at him and then backs up and nods. He motions for Alistaire to lead.
Sharper: “Alistaire
Allocco defeating Blake Mason. Despite the bent rules, despite the
distractions, Alistaire wrestled this his way and
won!”
Knots: “And now he’s leaving
with Damian Angel?!”
Sharper: “Angel was going to
enter the ring. But Allocco, and Blake Mason’s bodyguard, Jaxson Sullivan,
stopping him. But no more violence. Damian is now following Alistaire
Allocco to the back. Respect maybe?”
Knots: “Damian Angel and
respect? Please!”
Damian glances back at Blake
again as Jaxson Sullivan remains ready to intervene, but Damian leaves without
further incident, following Allocco. Allocco and Angel head to the back as we
cut away.
Sharper: “There may be respect
there, but won’t be in our next match. Syren has gone
after Owen Cruze. Blames him for everything that’s
happened to her in the last year. What will happen when they face each other
one on one tonight!”
A
recap video plays showing the history of Syren vs.
Owen. Cruze.
Syren vs. Owen Cruze
The lights straight to flicker
in the arena as “The show must go on” the SCW / Maserati Remix kicks in over
the PA system, the opening beats bringing a huge cheer from the fans
“Empty spaces, what are we living for?
Abandoned places, I guess we know the score, on and on
Does anybody know what we are looking for?”
Owen steps out onto the stage to an even louder outpouring of noise, looking
left and right at the fans and nodding in acknowledgment of their support.
“Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line
Does anybody want to take it anymore?”
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall
and has a thirty minute time limit. First, on his way to the ring, accompanied
by Kelcey Wallace, from Los Angeles, California, he
is Owen Cruze!”
He drops to one knee and punches the stage, as a huge burst of pyro erupts
behind him. Owen getting to his feet and glances behind him. Kelcey Wallace walks out and joins him before the two start
walking down the ramp, only focussed on the ring. Owen slides into the ring,
and climbs a turnbuckle, raising his arm as his music fades, and he jumps
backwards into the ring. Kelcey settles in his corner
as the crowd cheers.
Sharper: “Owen Cruze was a target for Syren. But
now, with Kelcey Wallace in his corner, can he combat
the distractions on the floor and hand Syren another
loss at his hands at this event.”
Knots: “Last year, he pinned Syren to put Sasha in charge. Beat her again! Send her over
the edge!”
Sharper: “2020 has not been a
good year for Syren. Didn’t get into the Trios
Tournament, hasn’t yet gotten the match she wanted against James Evans. She
wanted that tonight. This is her going after Owen, seeing him as the person who
started what has been a challenging year for her in SCW that started last year,
at this event!”
The lights go out leaving the
arena in complete darkness. The screen fills with images of Franklin D.
Roosevelt’s inaugural address.
“So, first of all, let me assert
my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is—”
There’s a record scratch
before a deep voice fills the arena.
“INFAMOUS!”
The opening of “Groupie” by
Cassie Steele hits the PA system and as the lights come back up, we find Syren standing in the middle of the stage, adorned in a
jacket. The crowd boos but she doesn’t seem to care, spinning around to point
to the back of her jacket where we see the words ‘DARK FANTASY’ written.
Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy
Syren spins back around again
before looking over her shoulder. The curtains part and CHBK and Alexander
Crowe walk out to join her, which only gets more of a negative reaction from
the fans. Syren then begins to walk down to the ring,
flicking her hair and ignoring the fans at ringside as Alexander Crowe and CHBK
follow. As the trio approach the ring, Crowe slides into the ring before
sitting on the middle rope and pushing it down, while holding up the top rope. Syren very deliberately walks up the ring steps, wiping her
feet on the ring apron before stepping between the ropes. CHBK makes his own
way into the ring as Syren walks over to the middle
of the ropes, stepping onto the bottom rope with one foot and the middle rope
on the other.
Phillips: “His opponent, representing
Infamous and accompanied by Alexander Crowe and SCW Hall of Famer CHBK, she
hails from Los Angeles, California, this is Syren!”
She steps off the ropes while
continuing to hold the World Championship in the air and walks over to her
corner. She slides off her ring jacket and tossing it in the corner. Then she
backs into the corner and looks at Owen Cruze with
anger in her eyes as CHBK leans in, talking to her.
Sharper:
“Look at those eyes.”
Knots:
“If she could kill Owen with them, she would. Probably with laser beams!”
Sharper:
“We’ve seen this night be a unique one. So far, Peyton Rice and Alistaire Allocco have been successful. Aaron Blackbourne was blind-sided by Shilo
Valiant, who we now know also went after Datura. Now Syren
goes after Cruze!”
The
bell sounds and Syren steps out from the corner as
Owen walks up too and looks at her. Syren walks over
and smacks him. The crowd ohs as Owen turns and just
then, Owen quickly grabs the arm and Syren stops and
turns and goes to grab his, but Owen front flips through and then pulls her
into a side headlock. The crowd roars. He pulls her back and Syren tries to drag him back. Owen goes with her and Syren goes to fire him off, but Owen drops to a knee and
pulls up. Syren kicks the mat in anger as Owen holds
on. Syren starts to get up and Owen keeps holding on
before kneeing her in the ribs and wrenching the arm. He then whips her into
the ropes. She bounces off and runs right at Owen who shoulders her down. She
looks up and Owen runs into the ropes. Syren goes
hard for a drop down, but Owen flips through and gets back to his feet. Syren gets up and walks into a dropkick. Syren hits the mat and Owen goes for the pin.

and into the ring. Owen looks at Syren as she slowly
rolls over.
Sharper:
“Syren lost it at the end. Almost like she knew that
she couldn’t shake this!”
Knots:
“And for Morality to do her in. Not just because of the name, but because it’s
a superkick! When she recovers, oh man, she’s gonna
be pissed!”
Sharper:
“Owen Cruze, for the second consecutive year, at
Retribution, pins Syren!”
Syren
remains down as Crowe reaches in and pulls her out of the ring. Owen watches as
Kelcey then raises his arm. The crowd cheers some
more as Owen plays to them. Kelcey then steps back
and Owen walks over and holds the ropes open for her. She steps through the
ropes and then walks down the steel steps. Owen steps through too and down to
the floor. They start to head to the back as Syren
looks out, clearly now realizing she’s lost and lets out a yell in anger as we
cut away.
Backstage,
we see several officials in one area. Datura can be seen holding her neck as
she leans against the wall. The trainer is with her, checking on her. Dean
Black is also overseeing the situation.
Sharper:
“There you see Datura and it looks to confirm that she was attacked and likely
be Shilo Valiant.”
Knots:
“I would think so.”
Sharper:
“And she’s holding her head and neck. Hopefully she is alright. She just
returned and this is only going to rile her up.”
Datura
grimaces and nods as the trainer keeps checking on her. EMTs are also coming
into view. The scene plays out for several moments longer as Dean Black can be
seen talking to Datura and the trainer too.

I pray the Lord, my soul to keep

Jordan runs out on the stage and jumps, landing right when the beat hits and
looks out at the crowd with a big smile on her face. She continues to smirk as
she starts to skip down the ramp ignoring anything the fans around her say. She
sprints toward the ring apron and slides under the bottom rope to the middle of
the ring, going on her elbows and kicking her feet behind her as she laughs.
Jordan jumps to her feet and runs to the ropes and jumps on to the middle rope
and leans across the top as she sticks her tongue out. She tosses her head back
and forth a few times before hopping off the rope and sauntering around the
ring.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the
SCW Adrenaline Championship! Introducing first, currently residing in Chicago,
Illinois…she is…JORDAN! MAJORS!”
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and its all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And its comin' over you like its all a big
mistake"
Phillips: Ladies and gentlemen….
"Holding my breathe, won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold"
Phillips: ..."The Phoenix" Marie Jones!!!!!!!!!!
A spotlight shines down at the top of the entrance ramp. Pyro goes off. Then
Marie Annabelle Jones steps through the curtain, wearing her ring gear and her
signature black leather jacket. A broad, somewhat condescending grin is on her
face as she gaze out at the fans in the arena who cheer loudly. The Tron shows
images of her striking at her opponents with her finishing and signature moves
as the lyrics of "Haunted" by Taylor Swift begin to flow through the
arena. Marie begins to make her way down towards the ring to loud
cheering from the fans. As for Marie herself, she stops to slap a few high
fives with fans, recognizing them as they cheer her. Then her focus is solely
on the ring and the determined stride with which she walks tells that
story. Marie hops up onto the ring apron. She strikes a sultry and sexy
pose for the audience. Marie turns and leaps over the top rope and into the
ring. She then hops up onto the second turnbuckle of the nearby corner
and holds her arms up high into the air, getting a reaction from the crowd.
The arena lights dim down, as the opening riffs of "Rope" by the Foo
Fighters echo throughout the arena. At the 13 second mark, the name "Asher
Hayes" blares through the sound system. As the arena lights return to
normal, Asher appears on the stage, wearing a long leather jacket and
sunglasses, with the SCW Adrenaline Championship around his waist.
“This indecision got me climbing up the wall
Been cheating gravity and waiting on the fall
How did this come over me, I thought I was above it all
Our hopes gone up in smoke, swallow your crown
Choke, on a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke, on a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you”
He makes his way down the ramp as the cheers of the crowd rain down upon him.
He walks up the ring steps and climbs to the top turnbuckle, lifting both fists
into the air, slinging the jacket off his shoulders, saluting the crowd before
dropping down and running to the opposite side, removing the title from his
waist and lifting it high in the air.
“Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some rope I'm coming, out of my head, into the clear when you, go,
I, go, noose…”
He stands, once again, on the top rope. He tosses his shades out to the crowd,
smirking and a blowing a kiss to the fans before dropping down, removing his
jacket and handing the Adrenaline Championship to the ref before leaning into
the corner, waiting for the match to begin.
Phillips: “And introducing third, from Chicago, Illinois, he is the current SCW
Adrenaline Champion, ASHER! HAYES!”
The ref calls for the bell. Asher, Jordan, and Marie take turns looking at the
other, before Asher lunges forward and connects with a forearm to Marie, before

A
recap plays showing how the Jackass & Big Ass Connection, Frozen Hell and
Infamous came to clash at Retribution.
The
Jackass & Big Ass Connection (Tommy Valentine & Kandis) vs. Frozen Hell
(Regan Street & Selena Frost) vs. Infamous (Ravyn
Taylor & Christy Matthews)
The sound of a whip cracking
gets everyone's attention, followed by the heavy bass riff of “More Human than
Human.” The sounds of a female in the throes of passion seem to have been
replaced with Kandis' voice.. When the moaning stops, the heavier music kicks
in, then Kandis and Tommy Valentine come through the curtain. Both smirk as
they look around.
Phillips: “The following
contest is a triple threat match, for onefall, with a
sixty minute time limit and is for the SCW World Tag Team Championship! First,
the challengers, from West Hollywood, California, she is Kandis and from Santa
Barbara, California, he is Tommy Valentine.... they are The Jackass and Big Ass
Connection!”
The heavy music continues as
the pair walk down the ramp, Kandis a step ahead, with Tommy clearly watching
her voluptuous rear end as they proceed. Once getting to the ring, Tommy hops
on the apron as Kandis goes up the steps. He holds the ropes open for her, and
she steps through, slowly, making sure all who are interested get a good view
(and pics) of her ass. Once in the ring, Kandis walks around showing herself
off while Tommy watches. Kandis then walks to their corner, and Tommy follows,
giving her ass a light slap as they get to the corner.
Sharper: “The Jackass and Big
Ass Connection is looking to make this their night. In fact, everyone in this
match. The question however is whether they can get past the drive of Frozen
Hell and the scheming of Infamous.”
Knots: “They’ve been acting as
the gatekeepers of the division. They stopped Frozen Hell from getting this shot
themselves. But they’ve made sure in this all, they’ve gotten the opportunity.”
“HELL HAS FROZEN OVER!”
“BELIEVE IT!”
The fans are roaring in cheers as “Hell Has Frozen Over” by The Megas and Entertainment System plays! From the back walks
Regan Street and Selena Frost. Taking the lead, Regan stands on the platform,
grinning, as “Snow” falls on the background screens and “fire” dances down the
electronic rampway. Lowering herself, as if ready to pounce, Regan holds her
claws out as Selena stands behind her, the platinum-blonde's back hand raising
up and her front hand reaching out over Regan towards the ring! With a stamp of
Selena's foot, ice races along the electronic fire display, causing it to
freeze and crack! Both smiling, Regan and Selena spin out of their pose and
make their way down the ramp, Mikaela Street coming from the backstage curtains
to join them.
Phillips: “The challengers, and their opponents, accompanied by Mikaela Street,
making their way to the ring, “The Hellcat” Regan Street and “The Snow Queen”
Selena Frost: They are... FROZEN HELL!
As Mikaela reaches the ring and walks over to her proper corner, Selena and
Regan slide under the ropes to enter the ring. Getting to her feet,
Selena lifts her hand up to give a twirl as the lights form to make a
massive snowflake under her. Stopping her spin and lowering her hand back down,
towards the audience, once again palm upright, a smirk graces her lips, her
other arm lifting to the sky once more as Regan, matching her partner's smirk,
lowers down to a pouncing stance. With a slam of her foot, Selena causes the
snowflake at her feet to “crack” as the rampway did, the shards of ice
streaking out to all four corners of the ring to shoot out blue streaks of fire
as the lights return to normal. Regan jumps to a turnbuckle and continues to
pose while Selena stands near her.
Sharper: “Frozen Hell hoping
that this will be the night that Regan Street wins the World Tag Team
Championship for the first time. Selena focusing on helping her friend achieve
this goal.”
Knots: “And think, for years,
Regan’s had friends, but never someone she could team with. This is a shift.
One Kandis and Tommy, and not to mention Infamous, don’t care for, but it’s
there.”
There’s a loud click as the
lights around the building flick off and darkness consumes the arena, with
nothing but a few flashes from cameras in the crowd lighting the arena. The
lights return slowly and dimly in a crimson hue as a boos spread throughout the
arena, then without warning we see black and white footage spring to life on
the screen of Winston Churchill giving one of his most famous speeches, all the
while the chilling sound of air raid sirens and war can be heard in the
background...
"We shall fight on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing grounds. We
shall fight in the fields, and in the streets. We shall fight in the hills. We
shall NEVER surrender!"
The video suddenly burns away to reveal a second hidden image of the devious
ex-president George H. W. Bush giving a speech of his own...
"When we are successful, and we will be, we'll have a real chance at this
new world order..."
“Indestructible” By Disturbed hits over the P.A system causing the crowd to
erupt into a sea of boos as they know who is about to make their presence felt.
The curtains part as Ravyn Taylor walks out onto the
stage with a ring jacket on, followed by Christy Matthews with a red hood
pulled up over her head. Christy stands in the middle of the stage with her
arms outstretched in a crucifix pose as Ravyn walks
to the edge of the stage, looking out over the sea of hatred from the fans.
They hold their SCW World Tag Team Championship. The curtains part again as
Christopher Richter and Alexander Crowe make their way onto the stage, the
former standing just a step behind Christy, looking ready to see off any fans
that get too close to her.
Philips: “And finally, making their way to the ring, being accompanied by
Christopher Richter and Alexander Crowe, first, from the City of Angels, by way
of Overland Park, Kansas, CHRISTY MATTHEWS. And, hailing from Malibu,
California, RAVYN TAYLOR. Collectively, they are the SCW World Tag Team
Champions… INFAMOUS!”
Christy begins walking down to the ring, with Richter acting as her second.
Meanwhile, Ravyn smiles proudly as she and Alexander
Crowe begin walking to the ring. Christy climbs up the outside of the ring
apron and ascends the outside of the turnbuckles, extending her arms again in
the mock crucifix pose before pulling her hood down and looking slowly around.
Meanwhile, Crowe slides into the ring and sits on the middle rope, lifting the
top rope as well as Ravyn steps up the ring steps,
wiping her feet on the apron before stepping between the ropes. She gives Crowe
a kiss, to more boos from the crowd, before stepping up onto the turnbuckles on
the opposite side of the ring as Christy and removing her jacket slowly,
tossing it to her husband before looking down at herself admiringly. Christy
vaults into the ring while Ravyn steps down and the
two gather in the corner, with Christy handing off her cloak to Richter, who
stands in the corner as protection while Christy crouches down beside Ravyn, who sits in the corner with a smirk on her face.
They hand off the titles to the official, Aaron Demitra,
who steps back and holds the titles over his head. He then turns and hands them
off as the SCW World Tag Team Championship logo comes across the screen.
Sharper: “And last, but not
least, Infamous. The team that even played games with the TV Title, the other
title Regan Street has not held, all to just play more games.”
Knots: “Suggests they’re not
seeing the Connection as a challenge or a threat.”
Sharper: “They have defeated them.
That was at Clarity. The Connection however fighting to earn this shot, same
for Frozen Hell. And whichever team wins tonight, will have to earn it. A lot
of talent in that ring.”
Demitra steps back and looks at the
three teams. The crowd roars as the bell sounds. Regan quickly runs forward and
right into Kandis and the two immediately grab one another and start to hammer
away on one another. This however leads Ravyn and
Christy to run at Selena. Selena gets ready and blocks a shot from Ravyn before nailing her with a forearm, but Christy kicks
Selena in the corner. She falls back into the corner and Christy kicks her
again. Ravyn recovers and kicks away on her too. She
drops down, dropping to a seated position as the crowd boos. Tommy meanwhile
looks on for a moment as Kandis and Regan keep hammering away on one another
and Regan gets the advantage, getting a knee to the ribs and this brings Tommy
in who forearms her in the jaw. Regan hits the mat. She gets up and Tommy kicks
her in the ribs and nails her with another forearm shot. He then goes to whip
her across, but Tommy plants his feet and stops Regan. Regan stops too and
Kandis then cuffs from behind. Tommy then kicks her in the ribs and Tommy and
Kandis grab Regan and throw her through the ropes to the floor. Christ stomps
away on Selena and Selena rolls to the floor.
Sharper: “Frozen Hell
immediately the focus of both teams and now they’re out of the ring!”
Knots: “Tommy picked his spot
too. Regan on the floor. Selena hurting early. And now Infamous and the
Connection to clash.”
Sharper: “And to add to the
chaos, this is tornado rules. One fall to a finish. No disqualification. No countout. No tags!”
Ravyn and Christy look at Tommy and
Kandis. Christy then crosses in front of Ravyn and
nails Kandis with a forearm shot. She nails her again as Ravyn
moves to Tommy, but Tommy kicks Ravyn in the ribs. He
runs Ravyn over into the corner. Ravyn
turns and Tommy kicks her in the ribs and then again. Christy gets Kandis into

We
return to see the Thunderdome down around the ring. The crowd looks on.
Phillips:
“Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for onefall, and is the Thunderdome match for the SCW World
Championship!”
The
crowd roars.
Phillips:
“Please welcome at this time, the special timekeeper, Spirit Dansby.”
The
crowd boos loudly as Spirit looks around and smiles a bit before “Style" by Taylor Swift
begins to play throughout the arena, the Tron plays the Video of her various
photo-shoots, training, fighting, swimsuits, lingerie and walking through
nightclubs with men gawking over her in skin tight dresses.
Phillips: “First, the special
guest enforcer…she is the new SCW United States Champion, Bree Lancaster!”
The crowd boos loudly. Bree
Lancaster walks out from the back, wearing tights and a Bree Lancaster t-shirt.
She heads to the ring, smirking as the boos continue. She walks down to the
ring and looks at the Thunderdome before walking over to the door. She steps
inside and then walks over to the ring and walks around it. She then settles at
ringside.
Phillips: “The special guess
referee…Xiomara Diaz!”
The crowd continues to boo as
Xiomara Diaz walks out from the back, wearing a referee’s outfit. She then
heads down the ring, the camera following her down. The boos continue as she
walks over to the door and turns to the official, Steve Hollinsworth, who is by
the door, asking for the key, and ushering him away. Hollinsworth turns and
heads off as Xiomara Diaz walks over and stands by the door. She then smirks
before rolling into the ring. She gets up and walks around.
Sharper: “Xiomara Diaz getting
the key to the door.”
Knots: “Yeah, to let Glory
Braddock in I assume if she comes down. The deck is not just stacked. It’s
causing a crater from how much it’s stacked on one side!”
Sharper: “Xiomara Diaz the
referee. Bree Lancaster as the special guest enforcer. Only those on the roster
approved by Sienna Swann can be at ringside.”
The spotlights turn to the
entrance way as we see a shot of Sienna Swann walk out from the back, with
Chris Cannon. Both are wearing all gold.
Phillips: “Now, the
challengers, first, from Hermosa Beach, California, he is Chris Cannon; next,
from Johannesburg, South Africa, she is the IronAngel,
Sienna Swann!”
The crowd boos louder and
louder as Chris Cannon and Sienna Swann then walk down the entrance way, hand
in hand. There are no wings, no over posing, no playing to the crowd, just a
march to the ring. They get to the ring and Chris Cannon holds the door open
and Sienna smiles as she steps inside. Chris then spins through and follows as
Sienna and Chris walk around the ring in separate directions before each
pulling themselves onto the apron. They then look out into the crowd and then
around the Thunderdome before turning and both flipping off the fans. Sienna
enters the ring smirking as Chris enters. They both take off their entrance
attire and throw it down. Xiomara kicks it out of the ring as she looks at the
entrance way. Sienna and Chris get ready.
Sharper: “No showboating. This
is a triumphant moment for them.”
Knots: “Just coming to the ring
and ready to dismantle James Evans.”
Sharper: “And I will say this
now, if Sienna Swann or Chris Cannon walk out World Champion, they are one of
the biggest frauds in professional wrestling history. Competition was involved
across the board. This…this is a damn shame.”
The music fades out and the
crowd boos loudly. Sienna and Chris look around. They smirk as Xiomara turns to
them. Sienna Swann walks around the ring listening as she smirks and turns and
leans on the ropes. The opening of “Door to Door Cannibals" can be heard
blaring through the PA system. The camera pans 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. He holds the SCW World
Championship over his shoulder, dressed in his hoodie.
Phillips: “And their opponent,
from New York City, New York, he is the SCW World Champion, James Evans!”
"Your name isn't proud demented man
Hold tight to the lie you sold to them
Take God and the case below
It falls on the day with much to learn
But you didn't get it
No you didn't get it
But you didn't get it
No you didn't"
James slowly makes his way to the ring. He looks at the Thunderdome as Sienna’s
smirk turns to disdain and Chris Cannon looks at him too, ready to find. The
crowd cheers him loudly. He reaches the ring and then steps into the
Thunderdome. He pulls the door closed behind him. He then throws the World
Championship into the ring. He looks at Bree, then Xiomara and then Chris and
Sienna before then throwing the ring skirt up and grabbing a couple of steel
chairs. The crowd roars as he slides one into the ring and then rolls in after.
Xiomara rolls to the floor as the crowd cheers. Xiomara snaps for the bell to
sound. Spirit quickly rings it.
Sharper: “James Evans walking
right in. He said he’ll go down swinging!”
Knots: “And he’s getting some
extra ammo!”
Sharper: “Big time and here we
go!”
James lifts the chair and
immediately throws it at the face of Sienna. Sienna falls over and rolls over
as the crowd cheers. Chris lunges at James and grabs him and goes for a hard
right, but James blocks it and nails him with a hard right and then another and
another before grabbing him and throwing him over into the corner. James turns
and stomps him in the ribs, kicking him repeatedly as the crowd cheers. We cut
to see Xiomara Diaz locking the door before turning and tossing the key to
Bree. Bree takes it and Xiomara rolls into the ring. Xiomara grabs the second
chair and lifts it up. She turns and James runs at her and clotheslines her
down. The crowd cheers. Sienna gets up on the apron and James runs at her and
nails her with a forearm. She falls off and down to the mat. James then turns
as Bree places the key in her tights. She then turns to the ring and James runs
over and kicks at the ropes. Bree falls back and to the side of the
Thunderdome.
Sharper: “Evans is striking
anything and everyone! He knows he’s in a war and he’s outnumber and he’s going
for everyone.”
Knots: “Make the most of this.
You can’t keep them all down. And even still, who’s going to count a fall!”
James then turns and grabs the
steel chair Xiomara had and Chris steps out and James nails him in the ribs
with the chair. He lifts it up and slams it on his back. Chris yells out and
rolls over. James then turns and swings at the head of Xiomara. Xiomara falls
back. He then turns and runs and throws it at Bree. Bree just moves out of the way.
Sienna slides into the ring, trying to come up behind James, but James turns
and sees her only to immediately tackle her down. He starts to hammer away as
the crowd erupts in cheers. James nails her with rights and lefts as Sienna
covers up.
Sharper: “James Evans
hammering away on Sienna Swann!”
Knots: “This crowd is going
nuts!”
Sharper: “Sienna Swann right
now seeing her plan go up in smoke! But here come Xiomara! And Bree!”
James hammers away with
several more shots before Xiomara runs over and nails James with a running
boot. James rolls over. He starts to get up and Xiomara kicks him in the ribs
and Bree enters. She runs over and kicks him too. James swings, nailing Xiomara
with a hard right before turning and grabbing Bree, but Bree drop toe holds him
down. He tries to turn over, but Bree gets up and stomps him in the chest. She
stomps him again. The crowd boos as James then tries to grab her foot. Bree
grinds her foot into the chest of James again before Xiomara runs over and
stomps him in the chest. She then looks around as Sienna stirs and Chris starts
to get up. Chris rolls to the floor as Xiomara stomps James over and over
again. The crowd boos.
Sharper: “And just the numbers
game. Bree, the safety net. Good lord…”
Knots: “And this is just what
this may be over. Over and over.”
Sharper: “At least we know
Xiomara Diaz cannot just end the match. Can’t fast count. Can’t just call a tap
out. She is an official tonight and Aaron Demitra
personally overseeing her actions. This is the one thing that Sasha was able to
get the board to include to allow this match.”
Bree gets up and James rolls
over. Xiomara kicks him as Chris grabs one of the chairs. He slides into the
ring. Bree then turns and looks at him. Chris nods and Bree waits by the ropes
as Chris walks over and places the chair on the throat of James, driving it
into him. Xiomara mockingly counts.
1!
2!
3!
4!
Chris stops before lifting it
up and driving the end of the chair into the ribs of James. James rolls over,
moving away and crawling to the corner. Chris then places the chair down and
walks over to James. James swings and nails him with a hard right. The crowd
roars. James then staggers out and Sienna runs over and hits a dropkick to his
face. James falls over and rolls to the ropes. Sienna then gets up as Bree
turns to her.
Sienna: “Just sit back and
watch. And get involved if you need to. Time for me to enjoy this!”
The crowd boos loudly as
Sienna turns back and starts to choke James with her boot.
Sharper: “And now Sienna, back
in this, back to her feet, now she’s looking for some Retribution.”
Knots: “Funny word. Like I’ve
heard it before.”
Sharper: “And look at Xiomara,
not counting. Not anything.”
Knots; “Not like she can stop
the match anywhere. No disqualifications and if James is unconscious, can she
stop it?”
Sharper: “Will she want to?”
James struggles as Sienna
keeps choking him. She then steps off and walks around the ring. James coughs
and Chris heads over and stomps him in the ribs over and over and over again.
He starts to roll to the apron. Chris reaches down and drops to the floor. He
then dumps him to the floor. James rolls over. Sienna looks on lovingly as
Chris grabs James by the head and runs him into the Thunderdome side. The crowd
ohs and James stumbles back. Chris then grabs him by
the head and runs and throws him hard into the steel. James however bounces off
and cltoheslines him down. The crowd cheers. Sienna
quickly steps through the ropes and tackles him down from behind, forcing him
down to the mats.
Sharper: “And a hard
clothesline. James not going down without a fight.”
Knots: “Yeah, but they’re
going to be right there. And he’s not going to have much chance unless he can
start taking some of the numbers down with him!”
Sienna gets up and stomps him
in the back and then again. Chris stirs and starts to get up. Sienna then grabs
James and Chris turns and nails him with a hard right. James laughs at him.
James: “Come on. Hit me again.
I thought you hate me!”
Chris punches him a second
time. James leans back and smirks before spitting in Chris’ face. The crowd
roars. Chris then kicks him in the face before grabbing him and placing him
against the Thunderdome and starting to grind his face into the steel. The
crowd boos as James yells out and Chris keeps grinding him. Sienna then asks
for her to have a turn and Chris holds him before Sienna starts to drag James
across the steel and throws him down. She smiles and turns and looks around as
the crowd boos some more.
Sharper: “Oh yeah. Take your
turn too.”
Knots: “And this is just the
beginning. They can do this as long as they want and James is on his own.”
James starts to get up and
Chris grabs him and pulls him up and throws him face first into the steel.
James spins off. He then rolls over as we see a cut open over his eye. The
crowd boos some more. Chris walks over and stomps him in the face. Chris walks
around the ring as James turns to looks under the ring. Sienna walks over and
she goes to grab James, but James suddenly turns and nails her in the ribs with
a wrench. The crowd roars. Sienna falls over, clearly in pain. Chris turns back
and runs over and James nails him in the ribs with the wrench. He then turns
and goes to nail him in the head, but Chris blocks it. James then knees him in
the ribs and spins through, rolling Chris into the ring. Xiomara walks over and
James swings at her. She steps back before James rolls into the ring.
Sharper: “James has a wrench.
And he’s using it to fight back!”
Knots: “Don’t just go after
Chris!”
Sharper: “Maybe looking to get
rid of one and then focus on the others.”
Bree looks on as she heads over
to check on Sienna. Xiomara and turn talk as Chris gets up and James swings and
nails him in the ribs with the wrench. The crowd cheers. James then spins
around and nails him in the back. Chris falls over and James winces as Bree
slides into the ring. She runs at James and spears him quickly. The crowd boos
as James rolls over in pain. Bree rolls through and then looks around before
grabbing the wrench. She takes it and Sienna starts to get up, wincing in pain.
She turns and Bree looks at her, dangling the wrench over the top rope. Sienna
walks over and takes it. The crowd boos as James rolls over, holding his ribs.
Sharper: “And Bree Lancaster
quickly checking on Sienna and now, the Classifier used to take James Evans
down!”
Knots: “But again, Sienna
taking her time. She’s now got the wrench.”
Sharper: “Probably want to
humiliate him!”
Xiomara turns and rolls into
the ring. Sienna then bangs the wrench on the ringpost
before pulling herself up. James winces and rolls over. He starts to pull
himself up. Sienna looks at him before quickly nailing him in the ribs with the
wrench. James falls over. Sienna then tells him to get up. James slowly fights
up to his feet. He looks at Bree and lunges for her. Bree drops to the floor
and backs up. He then spins around and Sienna nails him in the ribs again.
James falls over and Sienna runs over and rolls him over before starting to
choke James with the wrench. James struggles, pushing up as Sienna keeps trying
to choke him. Xiomara meanwhile is already down for a pin. Sienna then rakes
the eyes, quickly letting go of the wrench before going for the pin.

James pushes her off. Chris
starts to get up as Sienna gets up. She turns to Chris. Chris starts to stir.
Chris: “Fuck it! Let’s just
beat the hell out of him!”
Sienna: “Be my guest!”
Chris then grabs James as he
starts to get up and cuffs him in the back of the head. He then cuffs him again
and scoops him up and hits a backbreaker. Sienna runs into the ropes and
bounces off and hits a running dropkick to James’ face as James is hung up on

him and pulls him up. He spits on him before then kneeing him in the ribs and
throwing him over with a vertical suplex. He holds on
and hoists him up again. Sienna waits by exiting to the apron. Chris hits a
second vertical suplex. He holds on. James tries to
struggle and Xiomara kicks him in the ribs for good measure before he hits a
third vertical suplex. He rolls away and Sienna
springboards to the top rope and dives off and hits the Swann-ton Bomb. The
crowd boos. Sienna rolls through and then turns and hooks the leg.

James shoots his shoulder up.
Chris and Sienna look at him and Xiomara, clearly shows her frustration.
Sharper: “James kicking out!
The hope to screw him over not a possibility. The standard three gave James a
second to get his shoulder up!”
Knots: “And Chris and Sienna
are not pleased!”
Bree looks on as Sienna gets
up and Chris grabs James and stands over him and nails him with a crossface punch and then another and another. James slides
back though and pulls on Chris’ legs but Sienna hits a shoot kick to his chest.
James stumbles back and Sienna runs over and hits a running dropkick. James
falls over. Sienna then looks around before rolling to the floor. Chris gets up
and walks over to James and pulls him up before jumping up and hitting a leg

and Sienna slams the chair into the back of James. James falls over. Sienna
throws the chair down. She then grabs James and pulls him up, with Chris’ head.
Sienan smirks before hooking his head and spinning
through with a swinging neckbreaker on the chair.
Sharper: “Come on! The Perfect
Fate. That neckbreaker. A shot at Kelcey.”
Knots: “Something Kelcey Wallace has never done…win in the Thunderdome.”
Sharper: “And Sienna may do it
with her own move!”
Sienna hooks the leg.

Sharper: “Here comes Bree!”
Bree slides in and counts.

James shoots his shoulder up.
The crowd roars. Bree looks up as Chris looks around. He then gets up as Sienna
stirs. Bree turns and checks on Xiomara. She rolls over, holding her back and
starts to get up. James rolls over as Chris grabs him and pulls him up. He
throws him into the corner. Chris kicks him in the ribs and then again and
again before hammering him with a couple of shots. He then glances back as Sienna
starts to get up and Chris turns back only for James to fall to his knees and
low blow him. Chris staggers back, holding himself and James gets up and kicks
Chris hard between the legs. Chris rolls over, holding himself. Sienna runs
across the ring and James ducks a running Kiss of an Angel. James then grabs
one of the chairs. Bree turns and James nails her in the ribs with the end of
the chair. Bree rolls over and to the floor. James then turns and swings and
nails Sienna in the head, her just getting her hands up in time.
Sharper: “James! Chair shot to
Sienna! I hope it’s worth the fine!”
Knots: “James actually in
control! I don’t believe it! The guy did want a fight!”
James then turns and Xiomara
goes to grab the chair. She pulls on it. James however holds onto it. Bree
rolls to the floor and starts to get up, holding her ribs. We then see Glory
Braddock running out from the back at this point. James then lets go as Xiomara
pulls away, losing her balance. James then hoists her up and turns and hits the
Middle Finger to the Establishment! The crowd erupts in cheers.
Sharper: “Middle Finger to the
Establishment on Xiomara Diaz!”
Knots: “Now we have a ref!”
Sharper: “We have an enforcer
and now a friend. Glory Braddock coming down to help her friends!”
Bree sees Glory and reaches
into her tights and steps forward. She unlocks the door and opens it. Glory
runs into the Thunderdome. Bree closes the door behind her and starts to try to
lock it, fumbling with the chain a bit. James turns and sees Glory. Glory
slides into the ring and runs at him. James however drops down and rolls to the
floor. He then turns and runs forward and nails Bree in the back with the
chair, just as she locks the door. The crowd cheers as Bree falls over, and in
the process, she throws the key out of the Thunderdome. Bree falls to the mats,
holding the back of her head from the chair shot.
Sharper: “James! He saw Bree!
Glory too slow to get him and James just nailed Bree in the upper back, maybe
even caught her in the head with the chair!”
Knots: “He doesn’t care if
he’s going to hurt them. They wanted to hurt him. And Bree is down!”
Sharper: “The key flew out.
They’re all locked in there!”
Knots: “But here comes Glory!”
James smirks as he turns and
Glory runs at the ropes and dives through with a pescado,
knocking James back into the Thunderdome cage. He falls over. Glory then gets
up and sees Bree then locks in the ring as Chris is stirring and Sienna is too.
Glory turns back to James and stomps away on him, over and over as the crowd
boos.
Sharper: “And Glory now making
sure James can’t do any more damage. She was the ace in the hole. The extra
plan. James showing a fight we’ve seen out of him over and over in recent months.”
Knots: “He won’t stay down!
But how much can he take?! This is now the fourth top tier star he’s up
against!”
Glory kicks at him over and
over and she then drags him up and slowly rolling him into the ring. James
rolls over and Glory slides in. She crawls over to him and quickly, without
hesitating, grabs his arm and rolls through and tries to lock in the Shekinah
Glory! The crowd boos loudly.
Sharper: “And Glory…I think
James, adrenaline took him through that last volley. And Glory now-“
Knots: “She’s trying to make
him pass out.”
Sharper: “I think you’re
right. James did a lot of damage with that chair. And of course a couple of low
blows to Chris. Xiomara is down and now they know they have a window where
James could come back. And Glory is cutting that off. Trying to choke him out
so Swann or Cannon can finish the job!”
James tries to keep fighting,
as Glory moves her legs. Chris and Sienna stir as we see Jordan Majors walking
out from the back. She sees Bree down, holding her head and neck and Jordan
Majors runs down to the ring, now adding some extra urgency. A few strides
behind her is Jaina Lancaster.
Sharper: “And as Glory
Braddock-“
Knots: “Jordan can’t be here.
That was explicitly said!”
Sharper: “She’s coming down
with Bree Lancaster’s niece, Jaina, who also, as
we’ve seen is doing interviews here for SCW.”
Jordan goes to the door and
looks at Bree before looking around as back in the ring, we see Glory get the
hold on. James keeps fighting as Sienna gets up to a knee. Glory tries to get
James down and James slowly gets his feet up and slowly lifts Glory up. Glory
lets go and lands on her feet. She kicks him the ribs and runs into the ropes.
She bounces off and goes for a running clothesline. James ducks and spins
around. Glory too and James lifts her up onto his shoulders and spins her to
the floor with a variation of the Big Fat Kill. Glory lands on the floor as Jaina hands Jordan the key and Jordan uses it to open the
door. Bree starts to recover, getting up and Jaina
and Jordan enter as Sienna sees this as James turns around and Chris runs over
and clotheslines him down. He winces again and Chris turns to Sienna.
Chirs: “Let’s put this asshole
out!”
Sienna: “Happily!”
Sienna turns as Jordan and Jaina check on Bree. Bree keeps saying she’s fine as she
gets up and falls to a knee. Sienna Swann then watches as Chris grabs James and
pulls him up and clubs him in the back and then again and again. Sienna smirks
before holding him up and hitting a shoot kick to his chest. James stumbles
back and Chris grabs him. We then see Aaron Demitra
running down to the ring.
Sharper: “Aaron Demitra coming down. I don’t know if this is to get Jordan
and Jaina out.”
Knots: “Or maybe to count the
fall. The last thing you need is Sienna annoyed because Xiomara was attacked.”
Sharper: “She’s getting up,
but maybe not fast enough! And Sienna is setting up for the Kiss of an Angel!”
He then nods as Sienna as
Sienna backs up to the ropes and lunges, but as he does, James lowers his head
and Sienna catches Chris. The crowd erupts in cheers. James stumbles back as
Sienna turns and runs at him and he backs up and lifts her up and back drops
her up and over the top rope to the floor. Sienna rolls over as James turns
around and falls onto Chris. Aaron, who is helping Jaina
and Jordan, checking on Bree. He looks in the ring. He then slides in and goes
to count.
1!
2!
3!
Xiomara dives onto him, just a
moment too late, as the crowd erupts in cheers. Spirit however doesn’t ring the
bell.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, and STILL-“
Spirit then stops Phillips. We
cut to see Spirit stopping Phillips. Demitra
meanwhile has moved forward and has raised James Evans’ arm. He then goes over
to the SCW World Championship that had been in the ring from the start and
untouched. He grabs it and hands it back to James Evans. Xiomara Diaz starts to
get up and James rolls over.
Sharper: “James Evans somehow,
taking advantage of the rules, of miscommunication, of anything he could,
fighting for as long as he could, and he’s survived!”
Knots: “Aaron Demitra counting the fall. Spirit Dansby won’t let Phillips
make the announcement!”
Sharper: “We don’t need it.
We’ve got that right there, Demitra holding James
Evans’ arm in victory. A war took place in that ring, and even with the stacked
deck, Sienna Swann and Chris Cannon focused more on retribution!”
Knots: “They couldn’t help
themselves. They knew this would be their crowning moment, except that it
wasn’t and James Evans, he wasn’t going to stay down!”
Sharper: “What is going to
happen on Breakdown, in response. Sienna Swann, she’s out of cards to play and
James Evans is still World Champion!”
The crowd cheers James as
Sienna stirs on the floor. Bree gets up and falls to the ring to go into it,
but Jordan and Jaina stop her as we see other
officials coming to the ring and the scene fading to black…
