I want to give my apologies. I had sooooo many ideas for the PPV and for this storyline, and for the match with Christy vs Cassidy. I’ve really, really enjoyed the shows, but I’ve not enjoyed real life in the slightest.

I sat in front of my keyboard all Friday night and most of yesterday trying to write, and I can’t make the words come out. I know everyone says “real life comes first” but I also know in situations like this nobody ever really means that. 

Long story short, recently I’ve been denied a pay rise/promotion at work, even though I’ve been doing the job I wanted to be promoted to for months, and am expected to KEEP doing that job, even though they’ve made it clear they have no intention of promoting me to it. On top of that I’ve also suffered setbacks in my transition, with the NHS consistently letting me down and making me jump through hoops only to make the excuse that they’ve “lost the results” three separate times now. My mum has also moved in with me after her marriage fell apart and she’s driving me insane. I feel like I have nowhere I “belong” at the moment, I don’t have the money to do anything (like removal of my facial hair) that I want to do, and I hate life. I’ve slipped into a depression that I hope I can pull myself out of, and if not I may have to go back to the doctors and talk to them again. We’ll see.

So that’s what’s going on. I’ve asked Olek for a couple of shows off to hope I can get my shit together.

QUICK NOTE: This is more just focusing on segments that would have some immediate effect on a match at the ppv. So if you're not mentioned, unless you're like Chris Cannon, you probably were there. I just wanted to make sure I get something up in between lecture writing and packing. Sorry again for having to give a quick result version like this. Here's hoping Retribution ges us back on track.


Breakdown opens with Syren in the ring, talking about all the good that has happened since Katya was in charge. She got her well-deserved opportunity. People’s lives had changed. And across the ring from her at Retribution will be three teams that will look to do nothing more than serve themselves or to go back to the old, bad ways of doing things. Syren says she, Dark Fantasy, Marie and…Kim, will make sure that SCW can progress with respect for its greatest instead of continuing the old ways of holding people back.
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Discussion about Donovan Kayl’s retirement and what that could mean post-Retribution by the announcers.
 
Alistaire Allocco vs. Kimberly Williams

After the match, Kellen Jeffries appears backstage, mocking Alistaire, rubbing his jaw before holding his hand up and showing a pair of brass knuckles. “I mean…I could just throw out the rules too…You wouldn’t want that?”
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Andrew, Bree, Ikiro and Sienna have a hype session, laughing at Syren’s earlier talk.
 
Casterillo vs. Glory Braddock
 
Glory Braddock defeats Casterillo via countout when Casterillo part-way through, having hit a couple of his moves and then being countered by Glory, decided his input was sufficient and walked to the back.
 
Regan Street cuts a promo about what will happen if she has to face Sienna or Bree. She says she’ll do what she needs to do. Kennedy, also interviewed in the scene, says worst case, she’ll take care of Sienna. She has knockout to return to her.
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Ravyn Taylor meets with Kim backstage in a tense back and forth. Kim finally reveals outright that she thinks Dark Fantasy is using her sister and frankly don’t care about anyone but themselves, Katya included. But while she’ll keep telling Marie that, Marie is the one she’s following. So they need to make sure Marie is on board. Or do they think they can win with Dark Fantasy, an annoyed monster in Xander and a senior citizen?
 
Sam Raine vs. Alexis Quinne
 
Alexis Quinne beats Sam Raine via pinfall after a back and forth match. Dawn Lohan watches the match from ringside.
 
COMMERCIALS

Damian Angel, James Evans and Angelica Jones talk backstage. James and Damian are less certain of their partnership. Damian assures them he is firmly with the Wonderland. Gio has opened his eyes and they need someone who will have no problem going after the entire family, Sasha or Katya. Giovanni arrives, smiling, “The Lizard Kingdom will finally fall.”
 
Christy Matthews comes out and cuts a promo about Cassidy Carter, comparing her to her daughter, in only one way…she also cries and makes noise to get attention. She’s a baby though. Cassidy meanwhile thinks that running around, getting drunk and pretending that life is one giant frat party. This is not someone who should be holding gold, which seems to be Cassidy’s big problem. Well Christy can fix that come Retribution by just removing all doubt that Christy should get the opportunities, not Cassidy.
 
Jack Parker talks up LEO backstage as LEO can be seen doing some sparring. Parker talks him up noting the Executioner will be executed for his turning his back on the Network.
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Ravyn Taylor meets with Marie. CHBK is there too. They point out to Marie what has happened. Marie notes Kim’s issues, and she respect them, but Katya has indeed been good to her. She’ll grant them that. And that future, that opportunity is going to guide her at Retribution.
 
Aaron Blackbourne vs. Max Kane
 
Aaron Blackbourne defeats Max Kane via pinfall after hitting the Unchained Creativity.
 
Abigail Lindsay cuts a backstage promo about Ravyn Taylor and how she’s disappointed Ravyn keeps dodging her. So she’ll enjoy taking out Ravyn lite, Ruby Amarant. May as well keep her skills sharp.
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Tommy cuts a promo about how Aaron Blackbourne has a good future, but he tried to go after Katie and him, in a way to clearly get some spotlight, when two former World Champions are going to teach him a wrestling lesson and don’t worry, Tommy’s going to come out on top.
 
Konrad Raab vs. Manvel
SCW Television Championship
 
Konrad Raab shows a more aggressive style in preparation for his match against Casterillo and defeats Manvel to become the new SCW Television Champion.
 
After the match, Derek Adonis mocks Manvel by pointing out there’s a new KABLAMLabs product, the KABLAMassager, part of the new MAN Mountain line. Good for when you can’t get it done yourself. Places one by the tunnel for Manvel.
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Manvel walks past the “gift” before Sammy Thomas Davies walks over and takes it before heading off.
 
Blake Mason cuts a promo about how tonight he and Chris were supposed to be in the ring, face to face to clear the air before they do it in the ring. Chris isn’t here and there’s a family emergency and Blake, he’s just hoping it’s not the worst. Blake pauses before looking around and noting he’s thought about what Mr. D said and that Retribution is an end of an era for a lot of things. For SCW, but also for them, closure will be there and just as Chris plans to be at the best, something Blake hopes will still be the case, despite the emergency, Blake will be too as anything less would be a slap in the face of Chris. He ends adding “I hope its all worth it.”
 
Peyton Rice cuts a promo about how there is only one Kelcey Wallace and Scarlet Grey is trying to do whatever she can to get in her head and Chris Cannon’s. It’s not going to work. All that’s going to happen is that Scarlet has given Peyton plenty of motivation to show Scarlet that she’s not learned from 2018 and 2019 won’t be followed with some success.
 
COMMERCIALS
 
Selena Frost vs. Giovanni Aries
 
Selena Frost and Giovanni Aries have a lengthy back and forth match. Match is thrown out when Sienna Swann, the Truelove Twins, Ikiro Yoshida, Andrew Raynes, Dustin Adams and Bree Lancaster come out and attack both. Damian Angel, James Evans and Angelica Jones come out first. They fight before are overwhelmed. Kennedy Street, Owen Cruze and Regan Street out after. Kennedy goes after Sienna, with the two of them trading blows. Owen goes after the Trueloves, leaving Regan Street to look around before clearly thinking about things, realizing some of them are their former allies, before turning and going after Andrew and Bree. The three teams brawl, all against one another, as Dark Fantasy stands at the top of the ramp, watching. Marie Jones is with them .Kim is not. Xander Valentine appears on the floor, watching as well as the scene cuts to black.

I'll do what I can for the pay per view {I'm making no promises}, to be honest, this should really come as no surprise based on how things have been going for the past couple of months with the inconsistency on my end, fair to admit that I am just not feeling it as much anymore. Idea wise, I'm good. There are things I do want to write. As far as writing them? You've seen my track record with posting as of late, that all but tells the story right there. Not sure what it is, it just is. So, after Retribution, don't account for me. I truthfully don't know as of this posting when I will be back in active rp mode. 

This applies to SCW main roster only. I do have affairs in Emerge. I need to sort through them. Since it is once a month roughly, I am in no real rush to make a definitive move there. 

With this being a pay per view, knowing at least the control for the company is at stake & that can likely lead to storyline stuff; best to post this now. I don't like doing things at the last minute, I try to avoid that. There you go. Who knows, I may change my mind on this, this is more preemptive then anything. Last thing I want to do is waste other peoples time. Maybe I have already, who knows. I've been struggling. That is no secret. I don't want to fall further into the rabbit hole. I prefer not to be written out via injury.  In effect, indefinite LOA.

At the moment, I'm buried with work and I'll be moving later this week (And still need to pack). I elected to sleep on it before I decided what I was going to do, but I've elected at this point, I will simply right a quick summary of the last edition of Breakdown. Realistically, I won't get to finish Breakdown if I did start until the weekend and that would only delay Retribution further. Instead, I'm going to do something I hate, simply summarize a shot, move on and hope I can get back to getting on top of SCW matters once I move. I hope everyone understands and I'm sorry for the disappointment this announcement will cause.
