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

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

MAIN SHOW:

The scene opens with James Evans standing in the middle of a dark room. We see James then start to look around as mirrors are set up all around him. We see the image of James, standing in the middle of the ring, showing him from every angle, vanish in each mirror, replacing each image with a different shot of Cid. We see Cid Turner tagging with Carnage, before showing him fighting Rockstar in the first Thunderdome match, before showing him with Sid Kipling, then as King of America, followed by King of the World, then showing him as part of A/C Unit, and finally as part of the Holly Adams Brand, each mirror showing a different image before they all disappear.

So who is the real Cid Turner? And is that Cid Turner even still alive?

Ther mirror s flash to show Cid Turner in the ring at the end of the Taking Hold of the Flame. We see him looking around before showing him standing tall at the end of Rise to Greatness.

Is it the never-say-die champion?

James can be heard cackling in the background. James s face turns to disgust.

James: Please.

We then hear James yelling BULLSHIT! echoing in the background. We then see a shot of Cid Turner hugging his family backstage.

James: The family man?

Another cackle comes. We then hear James Evans s voice in the background.

James: Even I ve played that game before

We then cut to see Cid Turner down on the ground against Glory Braddock, showing him exhausted after facing Amelia Nevado, and then showing images of Cid Turner getting checked by the training staff and medical staff backstage.

James: This is the real Cid Turner held together by duct tape and drteams

James scoffs as we see James s face again, showing the disgust and then rage.

James: I ve destroyed anyone who has now held me back. Waylon Creek

We see Creek getting pulled back by officials after attacking CHBK.

James: Ryan LeCavalier

We see James Evans running down Ryan LeCavalier in the parking area on the November 13 Breakdown.

James: Amy Chastaine.

We see James Evans powerbombing Amy Chastaine off the top rope and through the announce table. We cut to show James again.

James: I know exactly what I am, Cid. There s no delusions I need to break of. I am your destroyer!

The word echoes.

James: You said someone would have to kill you to take your title

James smiles.

James: Challenge accepted!

James then extends his arms.

James: Because I should have been crowned the undisputed standard in this sport so many times over and I m done waiting.

The camera pans back and we then see the camera back through a door in a cage-link fence, revealing a roofed chain-link cage, but we see mirrors placed in each corner and leaning against the ring and the side of the cage.

James: Because I know exactly what I am. I have no delusions to break.

The phrase echoes.

James: But you seem to think you can still fight on

We see Cid Turner down on the mat, struggling to get up, holding his back superimposed in the mirrors.

James: I am coming to shatter your reality that you can still do this!

We see a shot of Cid Turner holding the SCW World Championship before showing him celebrating with his family, hugging his daughter in one of the mirrors. The mirror then explodes, shattering. We then see James Evans walk into view.

James: You re going to have to figure out who you really are if any of the old Cid still exists. You re going to have to look in the mirror and see who you really are or

James scoffs.

James: Die trying. And I ll be pulling the trigger!

We again quickly cut through James Evans s face, showing a variety of emotions, before cutting to him showing smug satisfaction. James sadistically laughs as the scene cuts to black.

The Shattered Reality logo then comes up on the screen.

Supreme Championship Wrestling presents Shattered Reality, Night Two!

The logo remains on the screen for a few moments before we cut to the inside of the Bell Centre as pyro shoots out from the entrance way. The crowd roars as the pyro display goes off for several moments before spotlights circle the arena. The cameras pan around the arena before we cut to show the Shattered Reality structure hanging over the ring.

Sharper: On a night that Cid Turner will be forced to face his reality, we welcome you to the final event of 2025!

The cameras continue to pan across the arena before we cut to the ringside area where Adam Sharper and Devon Kayl sit at the announce position.

Sharper: Hello again everyone. Adam Sharper here with Devon Kayl as we come to you from Montreal, Quebec, Canada for Shattered Reality, Night Two! And tonight, Cid Turner will defend his SCW World Championship against James Evans in a Shattered Reality match.

Kayl: We saw what James Evans meant by it in that intro. You see the structure over the ring. Cid Turner may have to go through hell if he wants to walk out 2025 still as World Champion!

Sharper: Not only that but we ll see if Selena Frost and, if he s able, Xander Valetnine, will earn a World Tag Team Championship shot or if the EFN will play spoiler.

Kayl: Xander Valentine laid out by Selena Frost last night. Selena is here. We know Xander was able to make it across the border but is he in any position to compete?

Sharper: And we ll say goodbye to Konrad Raab. Raab having the final match of his SCW career here tonight. Tommy Valentine will be looking to end it with a loss!

Glory Braddock vs Amelia Nevado

Victorious by Skillet begins playing as the lights dim a bit. Slowly, Amelia Nevado makes her way onto the stage, putting herself front and center as she folds her hands in front of her, looking like a proper young lady as she looks somewhat solemnly down towards the ring. After a moment of this, La Peque a Luz skips out from behind Amelia and stands beside her, giving her a pep talk before planting a quick kiss on her cheek which brings a smile to Amelia s face.

Phillips: The opening contest tonight is scheduled for onefall and has a thirty minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, accompanied by La Pequena Luz, she is from Oxford, England, she is Amelia Nevado!

The two proceed to lock hands before heading down to the ring, Amelia s look growing more determined and battle-ready as Luz continues her pep talk. Once they reach ringside, Amelia pulls Luz into a brief but passionate kiss before letting her go as she climbs the ring steps onto the apron, wiping her feet before stepping through the ropes. As the song goes into the chorus, Amelia gives a victorious fist pump to the delight of the fans as she takes a moment to soak in the lyrics before removing her robe and mask and handing them off to Luz on the outside, Luz taking the opportunity to give some last minute advice and encouragement.

Sharper: Amelia Nevado challenged Glory Braddock to this match. She is hoping to do something she s never done to end 2025 beat Braddock.

Kayl: All to put herself back into title contention. Braddock and Nevado fell to Cid. They ll have to get behind Syren who will face the World Champion at our first pay per view of the new year, but a win here puts them with the inside track as they look to get another shot!

The first chords of "Immortal" by Ozzy Osbourne begins to play over the PA system...

Phillips: Her opponent, 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.

I come alive at the second of midnight
So I can fly when the world is asleep
You scream and howl as I'm taking the first bite
Blood on my tongue tastes of eternity

People will come and go
Some stories never told
They bury me down below
But I'll never die
'Cause I'm immortal
Yes, immortal

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: Glory Braddock meanwhile as confident as ever. She has had a heck of a 2025, even though she did not win the World Title. She showed just how good she is.

Kayl: Even as she gets older, aging like a fine wine and that confidence is serving her well!

Steve Hollinsworth checks on both competitors as Amelia steps up and extends her hand. Glory quickly shakes it as they back up and circle the ring. The bell sounds. They lock up in the middle of the ring before then quickly breaking and keeping their eyes focused on one another. They circle a bit more before then locking up again. Quickly Amelia drops down and takes Glory down with a fireman s carry takedown. Glory however quickly moves through and into a headscissors onto Amelia. Amelia winces a bit and nips out of it before then getting up and nodding. Glory slowly gets up as Amelia keeps nodding. The circle around the ring again.

Sharper: Glory getting the first check. Amelia took her down, but Glory got through.

Kayl: And this could be the story. Glory has the experience. Amelia the drive. Both want to get back to challenging for the World Title and have to go through each other.

They lock up again and this time Glory drops down and spins around Amelia. She takes Amelia over with a Greco-Roman takeover. She keeps the waistlock on though and Amelia scrambles, trying to get free. Glory holds on though and Amelia moves to the ropes, hooking them with her arm.

Kayl: Right after the backbreaker. The suplexes. Start targeting there and Amelia found a target!

Glory shakes her head and refuses to quit as Hollinsworth drops down in front of her. Amelia pulls back on the head while sitting on her back.

The scene opens up in the now more familiar setting of Club KABLAM. The camera focuses on Gina and Gia Glimmer in the background, wearing nearly nothing, doing a display on stripper poles that have been set up. Gia pulls Gina off as the camera pans to show Destiny Page, who is wearing a different dress than last night, one more revealing.

Page: Welcome to Club KABLAM here tonight. I m happy to be back here and tonight, we re exclusively on the Third Floor. The KABLAMia experience is in full here for those who memberships and who play by the rules. You just saw Gia and Gina Glimmer doing a bit of a show in the background. What wasn t picked up was that the SCW World Tag Team Championships played a key role in their show tonight.

Page turns as we see Derek Adonis walking over.

Page: Derek, a wonderful night last night.

Adonis: Always a great night in KABLAMia if you just let yourself go. And it was great to have you here. Some of the promo shots you re in Mwah! And now we have the Glimmer Sisters. We should definitely get a picture of the three of you. Three of the SCW women of SCW. Of course, if you re on board.

Page: Would be great to be involved and

Gia and Gina Glimmer walk over allowing fans at home to get a clear shot of their skimpy attire that covers little. In fact, the SCW World Tag Team Championship belts cover their entire bottoms.

Adonis: Ah, ladies. How wonderful to have you here tonight? We would have loved you here for the opening, but it looks like you had something special for night two and trust me, the temperature is rising with you here KABLAM!

Gia (we think): A pleasure. Always a fun night to celebrate in a fun atmosphere where we just can do what we wish and play with the fantasies of all here.

Gina (we think): Then maybe we should go to the Bell Centre to play with two people s fantasies there.

Gia(?): Nah I d rather be here. They want us, they can come for us here.

Gina (?): Unless Xander gets to Selena first or at all? Perhaps we should enjoy one of the private rooms.

Adonis: Just over there ladies and you know the rules. They apply to everyone. They can look, but they can t touch unless everyone consents.

Gina and Gia smiles.

Gia (?): We deserve a proper celebration.

Gina (?): Ending 2025 as World Tag Team Champions. Pretty good for a team that some people thought were just tits and ass.

Gia and Gina walk off. Adonis watches them leave and smiles.

Adonis: I mean they have that too!

Page: You re telling me. Any other surprises tonight?

Adonis: Who knows? But just as in KABLAMia, all on the roster are welcome. Except Konrad and Xander. They ve lost those privileges.

Page: No wonder the Glimmer Sisters feel safe.

Adonis: Everyone should feel safe here. That s one of the pillars of KABLAMia!

Page: Something to live by-

Adonis: And that includes Wendell.

Page smiles.

Page: Thanks Derek. Back to the Bell Centre!

The Shattered Reality logo comes back up on the screen.

Just Some Loser vs. Polly Pingotti

SCW Television Championship

Phillips: The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a fifteen minute time limit and is for the SCW Television Championship!

The SCW World Tag Team Championship logo comes across the screen.

Sharper: TV Title on the line-

Kayl: Someone in the production truck is napping. Or focused on Club KABLAM a bit too much!

Sharper: Not the Tag Titles, folks. That was last night. Although you know the Vision would love a rematch.

Censorship begins to play throughout the arena, immediately garnering boos from the audience. As the alarms playing overhead continue to go off nonstop, a man steps out from behind the curtains wearing a blanket over his entire frame, concealing his face from cameras. He walks down the ramp ignoring the people to either side of him.

Phillips: First the challenge, coming in from somewhere in Minnesota Just Some Loser!

As he reaches the bottom of the ramp he tosses the blanket off and makes his way up the steps. He quickly enters in between the second and third rope. He stands in the middle of the ring, staring down at the mat with a thousand yard stare.

Sharper: We still don t know too much about Just Some Loser. We just know he has that name, presumably to humiliate his opponents, but he also took this match by attacking Deanna Frost so that Polly Pingotti would defend against him. He had his eyes on the TV Title.

Kayl: And he thought Polly would be a more manageable champion to dethrone. Not what Polly wanted to hear and she let him have it on Breakdown!

A coin can be heard dropping into a coin slot. A few seconds pass, which is when an open field is shown up on the SCW tron. A flock of birds rise up from the tall grass and fly away as the sound of a piano can be heard playing, leading into the opening of "Bird Set Free" by Sia. The moment the opening words are heard, Polly steps out from the back wearing a black skirt and matching black halter top, wheeling out a small black wagon with her right hand. A camera by the stage catches a glimpse of still photos inside the wagon, clearly taken by an instant camera. A picture of her reaction after what went down at Rise to Greatness is the photo that garnishes the camera s attention. The SCW Television Championship is around her waist.

Polly stops and stands at the forefront of the stage. She looks up at the tron to see one straggling bird rise up from the grass all by its lonesome. Polly admires the one small bird that begins to fly away now too until Sia reaches the chorus, which is when she turns around as a pair of pyros goes off on each side of the entranceway. The nearest camera catches her piercing bright green eyes as she begins to walk down the ramp and down to the ring. The crowd has an aura of uncertainty as they all watch her go.

Phillips: His opponent, making her way to the ring, from Panguitch, Utah, the SCW Television Champion, Polly Pingotti!

No smile comes to Polly's face as her unmistakable green eyes are just locked on the ring in front of her. As she arrives at the ring apron, she places her left hand into the left pocket of the black skirt she has on and pulls out a gray stone that has a black dot that appears to have been drawn on it. She looks very entranced by the stone. As her music comes back around to the second chorus, she puts the stone back into her pocket and seals the skirt's velcro pocket shut. Polly then goes to the steel ring steps, parks her small black wagon, and then walks up the steps and gets into the ring. Once inside the ring she stands right in the middle, closes her eyes, and just stands completely still. She opens her eyes back up and light on her feet chooses a corner of the ring to wait in. She crosses her arms in front of her and starts tapping her left foot, looking across at loser. The official comes over and takes the TV Championship. He holds it over his head and hands it off.

Sharper: Polly Pingotti, as has been the norm, just wound up tight here .

Kayl: She needs to figure out a release. She took out the lights a few weeks back. Angry at everything going on and that got the wrong attention. She put so many people in danger with that stunt!

The bell sounds as Polly runs over to Loser and nails him with a hard right and then another and another. She then hits a dropkick and Loser falls through the ropes to the floor. Loser scrambles up to his feet and staggers as Polly runs across the ring, bounces off and then dives through the ropes with a tope suicida, knocking Loser back into the entrance way. Polly hits the mats as Loser rolls through. The crowd roars as Polly gets up. (1) She then steps over to Loser as he stirs. (2) She then blasts him with a hard right. (3) Loser staggers back and Polly nails him again with a hard right. Loser falls to the apron. (4) Polly walks over and grabs him, but Loser grabs her by the head and spins her around, sending her into the barricade. Polly drops to the mats. (5)

Sharper: And Loser using Polly s aggressiveness against her. Throwing her into the barricade.

Kayl: But she s not just staying down!

Loser rolls into the ring as Polly then gets up and slides in after. Loser gets up and Polly pops up and nails him with a hard right and then another. Loser falls to the opposite ropes. Polly then starts to kick at him, kicking him in the ribs before stomping him over and over.

Polly is forced back and walks around the ring, annoyed before walking over to Loser who suddenly hoists her up and drops her throat first on the top rope. Polly falls back, holding her throat, struggling to breathe.

Receptionist: Yes, may I help you?

Man: Ah, yes, I m here for an important appointment.

Receptionist: What s your name?

Man: Chance

Receptionist: Well you have good timing. You can go through that door.

The receptionist points to the side. The man smiles and walks over to the door. He opens it and steps inside. As soon as he does, the door slams shut. He is then forced forward and into a chair. Clyde Sutter stands in front of him.

Sutter: So you want to know your fate?

Chance: Ye yeah.

Melinda Braddock then appears behind him.

Melinda: How lovely.

Sutter: You realize you have no guarantee it will be a good one. It s just how the wheel turns

We then see Melinda pushing a wheel next to Sutter, showing all of the SCW titles on it. Chance looks around.

Sutter: Then again, you may not even have this

Melinda then pushes another wheel in front of the championship wheel. On it are a variety of matches, from ladder to tables to fatal four way. Sutter then leans forward, standing right in front of Chance, looking down at him.

Sutter: And it all depends on who awaits you Care to help him understand, my love?

Melinda smiles before grabbing Chance and throwing him forward. Chance falls through another doorway and falls to his hands and knees. He looks around and then looks up. Just then, he s drilled by a running knee. The man drops to the floor. Fiona Logan stands over him. She smirks as Sutter and Melinda step forward and look down at him.

Sutter: Guess fate did not smile on you after all!

Sutter chuckles to himself as the Fatal Fortunes logo comes up on the screen. Afterwards, the Breakdown logo comes up underneath before showing the dates January 8, 2026 and January 15, 2026.

After a few moments, we cut forward as we see Melinda and Clyde waiting in the room. Melinda taps her feet. Fiona then opens the door.

Fiona: Got you some clam chowder!

Melinda sighs.

Sutter: Fate can be fickle, can t she .

The scene cuts to black.

Tommy Valentine vs. Konrad Raab

Underground Rules

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

HEART FILLED WITH HATE

The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that reverberates round the arena, a shot of Thomas in various poses is shown before reverting to the words on screen until the next pulse that sounds like a bass drum beat with increasing volume until a final shot of him holding the SCW Title aloft after winning the match at Taking Hold Of The Flame is Shown and remains until two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Cut The Cord" by Shinedown, hits.

A shot of "Thorn" going for the Swanton from the top of a chamber pod at Under Attack 2009 is shown in slow motion as he misses it and hits nothing but canvas. A shot now of him hitting the Socially Unacceptable Moonsault stomp from the top rope onto Justin Davis is shown, the impact punctuated by the last word of the verse before a shadowed figure can be seen standing in front of the curtain at the top of the ramp.

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

As the last word echoes, the lights start to strobe again briefly as the song reverberates throughout the arena now, causing the fans to start jeering, the heat almost palpable in the air.

Phillips: The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a thirty minute time limit and is contested under Underground Rules! First, on his way to the ring, from Raleigh, North Carolina, this is Tommy Valentine!

The lights finally flicker back on and Thomas Valentine can now be seen on top of the arena's ramp as he looks out into the audience that are now booing loudly, chanting obscenities in some cases. He stops and smiles a little before spinning around away from the fans and holding his arms outwards with his palms upwards, he then stops and then shakes his head before smirking and shrugging. The smirk turns to a full on grin as Thomas who spins around and looks out at the audience with smug satisfaction. Fireworks then shoot out at the top of the ramp in a burst before Thomas starts walking down to the ring. Tommy high fives some fans hands as he then runs up the steel steps and goes into the ring. He then nods before going to the corner and climbing up to the middle turnbuckle. He repeats the process on the other four corners.

Sharper: Tommy Valentine choked out by Konrad Raab at Under Attack. Now he s even more motivated to end Konrad s SCW career with him on his back. Tommy Valentine wants to ruin this night.

Kayl: While Konrad wants revenge for a long time of anguish. This is a match Konrad has wanted for years!

Feuer Frei by Rammstein plays over the sound system as Konrad comes out through the curtain with his flanged German mace and the blowtorch with him, acting erratic with an angry look on his face, rising the flanged German mace and the blowtorch in the air, wearing red and black skull face paint on the right side of his face with a red and black suit hoodie over his head he wears with pieces of flame blood designed all over them. He also has a penguin, walrus and a polar bear stitching on the left-hand side of his chest on his gear, stating Stop Climate Change and has NASCAR Cup Series and Kaulig Racing logo stitching on the right hand side of his chest on his gear. He also wears black boots along with Red and Black Gloves on his hands. Ginny Raab walks out behind him. Raab crouches down on the floor with the flanged German mace and the blowtorch in front of him, looking at the ring with evil intentions.

Phillips: His opponent, from Cologne, Germany, accompanied by Ginny Raab, he is Burned in Blood, Konrad Raab!

After the announcement, Konrad picks up his flanged German mace and the blowtorch and slowly walks to the ring with a massive amount of boos. Konrad runs up the steps and goes underneath the ropes, while Ginny walks up the stairs and gets in the ring with Konrad. As he's in the ring, Konrad, without showing any sign of acknowledgement from the fans, lays the flanged German mace on the turnbuckle, then sits in the corner of the ring with the crowd booing him, having a nasty look in his eyes, flicking his fists as if he's already ready to fight, with Ginny taking Konrad's flanged German mace, but Raab turns to her. She puts down the mace on the apron while Konrad pulls his blowtorch back. Konrad takes his hoodie off from his head as Ginny leaves the ring and goes to the back. Konrad just looks at Tommy, the two rivals glaring at one another.

Sharper: Ginny leaving and Konrad has the mace on the apron and has that blowtorch in his hand.

Kayl: Tommy just watching that blowtorch. We know what Konrad would love to do. Would love to do in this, his final SCW match.

Sharper: And Tommy is going to try and play spoiler-

Kayl: If he s not maimed in the process!

The bell sounds and we see Konrad Raab then runs at Tommy. Tommy watches him as Konrad swings to nail him with the blowtorch. Tommy ducks and then Konrad spins through and Tommy tackles him down with a spear. The crowd roars. Tommy then nails him with a couple of hard rights before kicking the blowtorch away. Konrad rolls over and gets up as Tommy gets up and Konrad nails him with a hard right to the jaw and then another. He grabs at Tommy and tries to push Tommy back into the ropes, trying to choke him. Tommy however reaches up and rakes his eyes. Konrad staggers back.

Kayl: The man attacked the other with a blowtorch. That s all you need to know!

Sharper: Jesus! Dropkick sends Konrad Raab to the floor.

Kayl: He went back first and nearly landed on his head.

Sharper: Tommy may have even intended that.

Tommy then gets up and exits to the floor. He walks over to Konrad and pulls him up and nails him with a hard right. Tommy then grabs him and goes to whip him across, but Konrad plants his feet and pulls Tommy in and Tommy goes face first into the ringpost. He spins off and down to the floor.

Konrad then takes the barbed wire and starts to wrap it around his right glove. He then turns and nails Tommy in the forehead with it.

Sharper: That barbed wire!

Kayl: And look at how decisive Konrad is. He just wants to cause pain. He hates Tommy Valentine!

Sharper: After slamming the chair into his back. And now a cover!

Tommy hooks the leg.

He then takes it and wraps it around the head and face of Konrad before then pulling back with a variation of a crossface. The crowd ohs as Tommy pulls back, smirking.

Tommy keeps pulling back. Konrad then starts to get his hands under him and Tommy lets go and drives an elbow into his back.

Sharper: Just trying to cause as much pain and damage.

Kayl: This is what happens when you hate each other.

Tommy then gets up and looks around. He exits to the apron. He then goes under the ring. He pulls out a table. The crowd roars. He lifts it up and places it on the floor.

He then rolls into the ring as we see Raab has unfolded a chair. Tommy runs over and nails him with a hard right. He nails him again and again. Tommy then runs into the ropes and bounces off, but Raab catches him with a European uppercut. Tommy turns and Raab grabs him in a waistlock and hits a release German suplex into the opened chair. The crowd ohs as Tommy goes through it, bending the seat through and rolls over in pain.

Kayl: I hope it s not that blowtorch!

Konrad then looks under the ring again and takes a decent bit of time before Tommy grabs him, but Konrad turns, pizza cutter in hand and runs it along the forehead of Tommy. Tommy yells out and staggers off, holding his face. He leans on the steel steps and Konrad stands over him and starts to grind the cutter into his forehead before running it across. Tommy rolls over as we see Konrad s face completely covered by blood. Tommy rolls over, his face covered too, his cuts only getting larger.

Sharper: I don t even know .a pizza cutter!

Kayl: And both men are covered in blood. In crimson masks!

Konrad then grabs Tommy and nails him with a hard right and then another as he leans against the barricade. Konrad pulls him up and then walks him around the steel steps. He then hooks him up and hits a snap suplex on the mats. Tommy grimaces as Konrad then grabs him and drags him up. He moves him to the apron and drives him face first into the apron.

Konrad, also, still has the panties in mouth. Tommy gets it on with great difficulty and starts to zip it up. He then turns and grabs the front and zips up the mouth. At this point, we realize that it gimp mask is such that Konrad can t see anything or even be heard too well.

Sharper: Tommy has zipped up Konrad in that gimp mask!

Kayl: I wasn t around for the Jackals days, but uh it got weird.

Kayl: Tommy may have just ended Raab s SCW career.

Sharper: They re both ruined!

The crowd chants Holy Shit! as Raab and Valentine are both on the ground in the table rubble. The official checks on both as Tommy slowly starts to stir. Both men, bloodied, stir, with Tommy showing more life. He crawls over to Konrad and throws his arm over him.

Sharper: And in his final match in SCW, Konrad Raab walks out victorious with the revenge he wanted!

Kayl: Revenge?! He set the man on fire! They maimed each other.

Sharper: I don t disagree at all. But Konrad Raab went out as he lived in SCW he was his own. He shed his blood. Tommy Valentine too. Hatred defining this and Konrad was a man with a lot of hate but he goes out victorious.

Konrad Raab slowly gets up and looks over at Tommy, who is still down in the barbed wire. The official checks on him as Raab just smirks before stepping up and holding his arms up. He looks around as we then see Kemal Yilmaz, Oskar Theron, Dakon Theron, Ludvig Eriksson and Ginny Raab come out from the back. They walk down the rampway and head over to the ring.

We always wonder if what is happening is a sign of something else a shift a change

We see a shot of Kimberly Williams running into the ring and attacking Konrad Raab. This is followed by a shot of ENIGMA hitting the Questions & Answers on Alex Belmont, before showing David Striker attacking Gavin Taylor.

Things never stay the same, but are these moments real change or just a flicker

We see a shot of Waylon Creek in the ring before showing Giovanni Aries as World Champion, laughing. We then see La Pequena Luz hitting a dive off the top rope onto an opponent.

But sometimes a moment happens and there is no doubt!

We see a shot of Just Some Loser facing Colleen MacDonald before the lights go out. This is followed by shots of Dexter Grant as the SCW Adrenaline Champion and Selena Frost hitting the Glass Shard on Xander Valentine. The logo for the next pay per view, A Taste of Things to Come, comes up on the screen.

Deanna Frost vs. Dexter Grant

SCW Adrenaline Championship

Shot of Adrenaline Tournament

Jason Phillips stands in the ring.

Phillips: The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a thirty minute time limit and is a Shot of Adrenaline Tournament match for the SCW Adrenaline Championship!

The SCW Adrenaline Championship logo comes across the screen.

The chords of People Like Us by Kelly Clarkson fill the arena, causing a roar from the audience as bright, fall leaves seem to blow and fly on the LED screens on and around the ramp. From the back curtain, out runs Deanna Frost, taking in the audience before running to the right side, then the left side, shouting to them in excitement. The 'leaves' follow her as she does. Returning to the middle, Deanna gives a spin on one foot, her arms outstretched, the 'leaves' circling her below her feet.

Phillips: First, the challenger, from Manhattan, New York, she is Deanna Frost!

Hearing her name, Deanna stops her spin, side facing the ring, and, with one hand over her heart, her free hand arcs around to point forward, the 'leaves' flying down the ramp and 'circling the ring LED barriers. Making her way down to the ring, Deanna high-fives fans along the way until she reaches the ring. Sliding under the ring, the redhead jumps to her feet, making her way to the middle ropes and leaning over them, one arm raised to the crowd. She does the same to the other sides of the ring! On the last time, Deanna hops back into the ring as the lights return to normal.

Sharper: Deanna Frost is hoping 2025 ends with her holding gold again. She has said how she looks at Shot of Adrenaline as a test to herself. She has been as sterling as ever.

Kayl: And she gets through Grant tonight, she could run the table along with being champ!

TokSik by Starset hits as the lights in the arena immediately go out, a series of green spotlights converging onto the stage where fog has begun to consume it. The big screen show's a human eye opening, and reflecting in it is a montage of people glued to their phones and computers, either consuming or producing social media garbage as they all look sickly while doing so. The Digital Detoxer Dexter Grant, wearing the SCW Adrenaline Championship, marches out through the fog, stopping at the edge of the stage and staring out at the fans with disgust. A few cheers can be heard, but they're easily drowned out by all the boos raining down upon him. He turns his head to his right just in time to see his faithful flunky Wendell march out behind him, proudly holding up a protest sign that has the circle-backslash symbol with a wi-fi symbol behind the backslash and the words DISCONNECT TO RECONNECT written within the circle.

Phillips: And her opponent, accompanied by Wendell, from Off the Grid, he is the SCW Adrenaline Champion, the Digital Detoxer, Dexter Grant!

Wendell eagerly looks up at Dexter, who smiles and nods in approval before he starts storming down to the ring, his disgusted look returning at the sound of all the people around him who just refuse to listen to his message. He jumps up onto the apron and aggressively steps through the ropes, marching to the center of the ring and turning his back to the hard cam as he points his thumb to the same DISCONNECT TO RECONNECT logo of his on the back of his vest. Wendell crawls into the ring and stands beside Dexter, proudly holding up his sign before looking legitimately confused as to why they're being booed. The lights return to normal as Dexter starts to pace around the ring. He hands off his title as Jennifer Cassidy takes it and raises it over her head. Grant then storms over to Phillips, demanding the microphone. Phillips turns and Grant takes it.

Sharper: Grant ready to compete. There s the Adrenaline Championship and-

Kayl: I think he has something to say. Can we mute the mic?

Grant: Well I hope all of you enjoyed the moment you just saw a bloodbath and an end to a career. While SCW is going to put it all over social media, getting precious likes, you all had something special. You stood here and watched. Remember it to you fools who recorded it on your phones in violation of your terms of conditions to hold a ticket, or that you were too focused on showing you were here on social media you should be ashamed.

Grant then turns to Deanna Frost.

Grant: Just like my opponent tonight should be ashamed for chasing longevity by trying to get out of the shadow of her wife. Never mind that she s not looking to get social media clout. She s just competing. Maybe you re not cut out for this given that you need to focus on all of the wrong-

Deanna then runs over and nails Dexter with a hard right. Grant falls back, the microphone goes flying. The bell sounds as Dexter gets back up and Deanna blasts him again with a hard right. Dexter falls back into the corner and Deanna nails him again and again. She then grabs his arm and pulls him out and hits an arm drag. Dexter rolls through.

Sharper: And Deanna heard enough. Arm drag out of the corner. All over Dexter!

Kayl: She s focusing on kicking your ass Dexter. That s the key thing, Dexter!

Deanna then kicks Dexter as he gets up. She then hooks him up and hits a snap suplex. Grant arches his back in pain and gets up and Deanna kicks him again. She then goes to run him over to the corner, driving him face first into the top turnbuckle.

Grant kicks out again. He gets up and Deanna wrenches the arm.

Sharper: Grant may have needed to focus more on Deanna than trying to get under his skin or his crusade.

Kayl: Hey the results speak for themselves. He s a two time Adrenaline Champion. But he s also never faced someone like Deanna Frost. He s faced the insanity of Kim, the pedigree of Glory, but never the heart of Deanna.

Deanna then kicks Grant in the ribs before wrenching the arm again. She then grabs him and snapmares him over before then kneeing him in the back. She runs into the ropes, bouncing off and hitting a cannonball to Grant, knocking him back. She goes for the pin.

He then stomps her in the face before stomping her in the shoulder and then stomping her in the face again. Deanna rolls over and gets up, moving to the corner.

He floats over into the lateral press.

Deanna rolls over, holding her face and starting to get up. Grant grabs her and then snapmaring her over and driving his knee into the forehead of Deanna. He goes for another lateral press.

Frost kicks out.

Sharper: Nothing fancy. Just a pummeling assault.

Kayl: He s almost the antithesis of the Adrenaline division. He doesn t want some cool move to trend on social media. He doesn t want to be flashy. He just wants his message across.

Frost starts to get up and Dexter gets up and kicks her in the ribs again. He whips her into the ropes. Deanna bounces off and Dexter lifts her up and falls back, dropping her throat first on the top rope. Deanna falls back and down to the mat. She coughs and turns as Dexter Grant grabs her and locks in a reverse chinlock. The crowd boos as he looks around. Deanna reaches out as Grant pulls back on the hold. Deanna grimaces as Grant starts to berate her into her ear. Deanna turns and starts to get her feet under her. Grant continues to hold on before Deanna elbows him in the ribs once and then again before snapmaring him down. She then steps forward and hits a shoot kick to the chest.

We open up in CHBK s office backstage. Autumn Valentine walks back into the room.

Autumn: Okay, I ve made sure we will have an ambulance here at all times. They re understanding the gravity of the situation.

CHBK: Just this main event

CHBK takes a deep breath.

Autumn: Will Cid stop? Will James?

CHBK: I don t know.

Autumn looks around, clearly uncertain.

CHBK: Do you know what you re doing?

Autumn: Excuse me?

CHBK: You know what I m referring to.

Autumn: I don t know what you mean.

CHBK walks over to Autumn.

CHBK: Make sure you know exactly what you re looking to do and what you and Lexy and Ravyn .are looking to put on the line. There is only so much I can do.

CHBK steps past Autumn as Autumn watches him leave. She turns and looks forward as CHBK leaves the office. Just then, we hear some noise as CHBK is pushed back.

Polly: You happy now? Happy I got the TV title taken from me? After all of the shortcuts? This is what you re pleased about. Where are the consequences for that, huh?

CHBK: Polly you wanted the match-

Polly: And had your officials been paying attention-

CHBK: Polly-

Polly: No. I m not going to be forgotten again. THIS needs to be made right in the new year. Either you re going to do it, or I WILL!

Polly storms off as CHBK watches her leave. Autumn steps forward.

Autumn: You okay?

CHBK: Yeah never a dull moment.

CHBK straightens his suit and walks off as Autumn watches where Polly walked off.

Backstage, we see Selena Frost walking over to the tunnel in her wrestling gear. She paces a bit, looking a bit surly, before turning as Deanna Frost walks out of the tunnel, holding the SCW Adrenaline Championship. She looks at Selena as Selena glances at her.

Selena: Congratulations.

Deanna nods.

Deanna: Thank you.

Selena: You seem to be accomplishing what you wanted to.

Selena: You made the decision.

Selena then walks past and walks into the tunnel. Deanna glances at her before continuing on her way.

Selena Frost & Xander Valentine vs. The European Fiery Nation

Number One Contendership to the SCW World Tag Team Championship

Off To War by Behemoth plays over the sound system with the lights being dark as ever. Ginny Raab, Ludvig Eriksson, and Dakon Theron, walk out from the back. All three wave their flags as the crowd boos. They look down at the ring and at Selena Frost. Frost tells them to come to the ring.

Phillips: The following contest is scheduled for onefall with a thirty minute time limit and is for the number one contendership of the SCW World Tag Team Championship. First, the challengers, accompanied by Ginny Raab, coming from Sweden and Norway, they are Ludvig Eriksson and Dakon Theron, known as The European Fiery Nation."

The lights go out again as the trio walks down to the ring with their flags. They walk up the steel steps and then step into the ring. Theron and Eriksson hold up their arms as Ginny looks on. They then hand off their flags to Ginny. She takes them and heads to the back. Ludvig and Dakon start to stretch.

Sharper: The European Fiery Nation were unable to win the World Tag Team Championship on Breakdown. With the Glimmer Sisters winning last night, the winner tonight, gets their shot a them.

Kayl: But this could very well just be a rematch of Breakdown a few weeks ago. Selena Frost attacked Xander Valentine last night and made sure he would have trouble making it here and be cleared.

Sharper: Violent conchairto and to a man with a history of concussions. Just that Selena Frost would stoop to that level, to force people s hands, when they want tag teams challenging for the titles!

BELIEVE IT... OR NOT!

"Thank You for Hating Me!" by Citizen Soldier plays throughout the arena, the SCW Universe deafening the song with their boos. The lights shift to dark purple and blue, filling the arena as snow is seen falling along the electronic floor and screens as, out from the back, walks the Snow Queen, Selena Frost, taking in the crowd of the SCW Universe with a smirk.

Phillips: And their opponents, first, from Nome, Alaska, by way of Manhattan, New York, she is the Snow Queen, Selena Frost!

Slowly, Selena shifts her head, her sapphire eyes locked towards the ring as she turns to her side and lifts her front hand gracefully, extending it towards the ring, palm upward. With a lift of her front foot, she suddenly slams it down into the ground, causing a crack like ice to form and sprint down the ramp and towards the ring!

Lowering her arm, the Blue-Eyed Devil walks down the ramp, her steps leaving footprints in the snow under her feet. Reaching the ring, Selena goes up the steps and under the ropes to enter it. But just then, Dakon and Ludvig strike. They run over to her and both start to attack her, leading to cheers from the Montreal crowd.

Sharper: And the EFN all over Selena! If she is solo, this could be a long night for her.

Kayl: And again, the arrogance to feel she could just enter. And Steve Hollinsworth trying to get them off of her.

Dakon clubs Selena over and over as Eriksson kicks her in the ribs. She drops down to the mat as Theron then grabs her and drags her up and moves her into the neutral corner. Theron hits a back elbow and then another and another before whipping her out and Eriksson hits a jumping leg lariat. Hollinsworth tries to get Dakon out of the ring as he does as Eriksson drags Selena up and moves her into what would have been her corner. Instead, he nails her with a series of hard rights and lefts. The bell sounds as Hollinsworth walks over, calling for the break.

Eriksson backs off, holding his hands up. Selena winces and lunges out and Eriksson hits a hip toss. She sits up and Eriksson just kicks her in the side and then again in the side again. She drops down to a seated position and Eriksson hits a series of quick kicks, alternating between legs, as if kicking a soccer ball, only the ball is Selena Frost.

Sharper: Eriksson and Theron all over the multiple time World Champion!

Kayl: They picked up a few lessons from last time!

He then steps out and pulls her in before scooping her up and hitting a spinning back suplex. Selena rolls over in pain. Theron gets up and tags in Eriksson.

Sharper: Theron and Eriksson are just dismantling Selena Frost.

Kayl: Maybe she deserves it. Thinking so little of EFN and now setting herself up this way.

Eriksson slingshots in and Theron runs over to Selena and pulls her up. He then spins around and holds her up for Eriksson who forearms her in the back. Theron forearms her in the jaw. Theron turns her and Eriksson and him grab Selena by the head and hit a double cutter. Selena rolls over. One more time! chants break out as Eriksson gets up and smirks before running into the ropes, bouncing off and jumping up with a leg drop to her head. He goes for the pin.

Selena gets her shoulder up. Theron exits to the apron. Eriksson then rolls off as Selena rolls over, wincing in pain. She starts to get up and Eriksson elbows her in the back of the head and then again before waiting and then hitting a dropkick to the jaw. She drops.

Selena gets her shoulder up. Eriksson looks down and shakes his head. He then tags in Theron. Theron enters.

Sharper: Eriksson now back to Theron. After the top rope elbow drop.

Kayl: Selena s not staying down, but they re limiting her ability for offense. They ve smothered her practically.

Sharper: Not how she expected this match to go at all.

Kayl: Perfect example of hubris so far!

Theron enters as Eriksson heads over to Selena. Selena nails him in the ribs with a shot and then elbows Theron before Eriksson knees her in the side of the head. Theron turns back and boots her in the side of the head. She goes down and Theron grabs her by the head as Selena does the same with Eriksson. The official calls for the break and for Eriksson to exit. Theron stands behind Theron as Eriksson stands in front of her and Selena then hits a mule kick on Theron. Theron drops down. Eriksson turns and Selena jumps up with an enziguri kick, almost causing him to fall into Hollinsworth. Selena winces and looks up.

Selena: Get that jackass out of my ring!

Selena shoves Hollinsworth a bit. Theron starts to get up, holding himself up and Selena runs into the ropes behind him, bounces off and hits a running straight kick to the back of Theron s head. He goes down as the crowd boos.

Sharper: And Selena finds her opening.

Kayl: She never stops trying to find a way to compete. She s always been tough to put away.

Sharper: Needed low blow-

Kayl: Why fight hard when you can fight smart!

Selena then gets up and Eriksson gets up and Selena hits a dropkick, knocking him up and over the top rope to the floor. Selena then gets up as Theron starts to slowly get up and Selena runs up behind him and leapfrogs over him and into a leg drop bulldog. Selena rolls Theron over.

Theron kicks out. Selena looks up with disgust. She gets up and stomps Theron in the face over and over and over again. She then walks around the ring. Theron rolls over and he then gets up to his knees and Selena steps up and hits a shoot kick to the chest. She then hits another kick to the chest and then a third before backing up and kicking Theron in the head. He falls back.

Sharper: And Selena making short work now. Trying to just do as much damage in a short time.

Kayl: Trying to victimize Dakon Theron here and making good work of it. A couple of hard shots to the head. Hard kicks!

Selena then runs into the ropes, jumping to the middle rope, but Eriksson hops onto the apron. Selena stops and nails him with a hard right before then kicking him in the ribs. She turns around and Theron suddenly hits a flapjack. Theron rolls over as he crawls over to Eriksson. He tags him in. Eriksson enters as Selena gets up and Eriksson hits a superman punch.

Sharper: And spiking Eriksson on his head. Tornado DDT!

Selena rolls over and gets up and Theron runs over and grabs her and then just throws her out of the ring. Selena rolls through to her backside. She starts to get up as Hollinsworth tells Theron to exit the ring. Selena then gets up and looks around. She then turns to the announce table. She reaches over and grabs one of the monitors. Eriksson crawls to the ropes and looks up and Selena then turns and runs over and drills Eriksson in the side of the head with the monitor. She then turns and tosses it back on the announce table. Eriksson rolls over, dazed and down to the mat.

Kayl: Jesus!

Sharper: With a monitor from our table! Selena Frost the hell is wrong with you/

Kayl: Trying to just facilitate the result she wants!

Sharper: Theron had the official s attention and the monitor right to the head!

Selena rolls back in and Eriksson is half out of it and Selena pulls him up and then grabs him and hits the Icebreaker DDT. Selena rolls him over and goes for the pin.

A long church bell rings, once- twice- a third time as the crowd explodes. The lights go out as Xander s voice echoes out over the sound system, increasing the intensity of the crowd s roar.

Never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

The crowd roars as Theron turns. Selena looks up, defiantly and upset. She falls to a knee. As Soul on Fire by Last Internationale plays, we see Xander Valentine storming from the back, brandishing a chair. He storms down to the ring.

Sharper: And here comes Xander Valentine!

Kayl: And making sure everyone knows it. And he s got a chair!

Xander Valentine storms to the ring and pulls himself up onto the apron. He then enters the ring as Dakon smirks and Valentine then goes to use the chair, only for Hollinsworth to grab it, but Xander lets go, using it to allow him to get unhindered at Theron who he boots in the face. He then turns and runs over to Selena as she gets up and grabs her by the throat. The crowd roars. He then pulls her out and lifts her up and chokeslams her for good measure. The crowd erupts.

Theron gets back up and Xander scoops him up and turns, hitting a snake eyes. Theron falls back. Selena Frost starts to stir on the floor.

Sharper: Xander Valentine, he looks good.

Xander then clotheslines Theron down. Xander sees Selena getting up and Eriksson starts to get up. Xander walks over and grabs him by the throat. The crowd erupts. Xander then hoists him up and turns and goes to chokeslam him over the top rope and onto Selena. Selena moves out of the way as Eriksson drops to the floor, landing on the mats and rolls into the barricade.

Kayl: Xander just tried to take out Selena again!

Sharper: Eriksson over the top! Chokeslam to the floor. Aimed for Selena. I don t know if Xander noticed she moved out of the way. But Eriksson wishes she was there!

The bell sounds. Xander looks down at Selena and then shakes his head.

Kayl: I don t know if Xander s happy about it!

Sharper: He didn t stop the pin. But he did take Selena out and Selena doesn t even know she s got a shot at the Glimmers!

Kayl: But are these two even going to work together?! They have the shot together!

Xander pulls away from the official as Hollinsworth turns and checks on Selena. Eriksson grimaces on the floor. Xander steps over the top rope and drops down to the floor. He then starts to walk around the ring. He pulls away from some fans who try to touch him and goes over to the entrance way. He glances back before turning and starting to head up the rampway to the back. Selena rolls over as Eriksson walks over to the ring, wincing in pain and checking on Theron.

The scene opens back up in Club KABLAM in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, where we see Derek Adonis dancing a bit in one of the club rooms as we see women and men of various stages of nakedness dancing around. Destiny Page then comes in front of the camera.

Page: Welcome back to Club KABLAM where the celebration is never ending. It may never climax here-

Adonis: KABLAM!

Adonis yells across as Page shakes her head and laughs.

Page: We re going to be going deep into the night. People are having a blast here. Just part of the ability to just let go that KABLAMia promotes and SCW has entered a joint partnership in to promote KABLAMia wellness and relaxation packages. And

???: This is a total smorgasbord of blasphemy and heresy!

Religious Wright steps forward as he looks around before we see Karl and Jack Barker step forward and look around. They start to set up a perimeter, hard to do with two men, but they trade. Gavin Taylor then walks forward and smiles, joining Destiny.

Page: Gavin Taylor? What are you doing here?

Gavin: Why WOULDN T I be here.

Page: This seems to go against some of the promotional materials we ve been given. Aren t you claiming to now be a family man and you have a religious advisor and-

Wright: WHORES! WHORES EVERYWHERE!

Gavin: Well that is a problem. And as you know, when I Make America Gavin Again, we ll have clean cities, safe cities, the best cities. No whores, only the best whores if there are any, but we ll make sure they stay away. Best for all.

Page: What are you talking about?

Derek Adonis then walks over, joined by some of the KABLAMia security, two ripped shirtless men wearing leather pants and sunglasses, along with shoulder walkie-talkies.

Adonis: What is going on here?

Gavin: I m talking about Making America Gavin Again and as you know Canada is part of America, the north part of North America, and I don t discriminate on the Americas that need to be Gavin Again. And as you know, I am starting to build my empire. It s going to be a great empire. The best empire. I have the best empires. And I will be US Champion of the World soon enough-

Page: Fell short last night-

Adonis: Heh-

Wright: Hey! He is NOT short!

Gavin turns to Wright and tells him to just step back.

Gavin: I am here for other reasons. Because well, I need to make sure that everyone knows how they can Make America Gavin Again and I ve decided the best way to do that is through real estate.

Page: You ve got to be kidding me.

Gavin: And I have no just bought this building. This beautiful building. It s going to be a great place. Club GA-BLAM! A place where Canadians can go and Make America Gavin Again. He can buy flags, buy pins, by cell phones, by gold cards, whatever they want, to show their support and help my campaign to stop the steal I m looking at you SCW and Dumont especially after last night too! This is me pushing back on the GDS that s in SCW. The Gavin Derangement Syndrome that riddles SCW. They are going to have Reno Dumont as my opponent in Japan for Fatal Fortunes where we know that can t happen. It s supposed to be random.

Gavin looks around.

Gavin: But now people can come and hear all of the lies from SCW and learn about the truth. The big beautiful truth, and we can make sure in 2026 I become the SCW US Champion of the World! As I was already that last night before THAT was stolen from me too!

Gavin turns to Jack and Karl.

Gavin: The banner!

We then see Karl walk off camera before coming back and pulling out a banner, presumably pulled down from outside where Gavin Taylor s head has been placed on the side as Club KABLAM is now Club Ga-BLAM.

Gavin: Religious? The papers

Religious Wright steps back and hands Gavin some folded papers. Gavin hands them to Derek.

Gavin: All in order.

Adonis: We had the building for the week.

Gavin: I have started the transformation! Alright! EVERYONE OUT! TIME TO MAKE THIS GAVINESCENCE!

Page looks around.

Page: Uh Gavin-

Gavin: And turn off that camera. Can t have SCW knowing of my plans to stop the steal!

Jack and Karl head over as Gia and Gina Glimmer walk into the view, wearing housecoats, confused. The music abruptly stops as the lights come up. People start to look around as Gavin smiles. Wright then starts to move forward, telling people to leave. The Shattered Reality logo comes up on the scene.

We return to a live shot of the Bell Centre and the SCW announce position where Adam Sharper and Devon Kayl sit.

Sharper: Gavin Taylor just took over the club?

Kayl: And going to smear his face and name all over it. Gotta love it.

Sharper: Well, we will see if tonight may be a bad night for another individual, that is Cid Turner the World Champion. James Evans using his Trios Tournament contract to get this match. Can Cid Turner survive? Let s see how we got here.

A recap plays showing James Evans s challenge for Cid Turner s World Championship and the actions James Evans has used to terrorize Cid since.

James Evans vs. Cid Turner

SCW World Championship

Shattered Reality Match

Phillips: The following contest is a Shattered Reality match scheduled for onefall and is for the SCW World Championship and is your main event of the evening!

The SCW World Championship logo glides across the screen. As it slips away, we get a good view of the cage surrounding the ring. The inside of the cage is lined with several boxed mirror cabinets, stretched all the way around. Each corner of the ring also has a large pane of glass propped up against it.

Sharper: And you can see there Shattered Reality.

Kayl: From the troubled mind of James Evans. We can see - panes of glass, or mirrors, lining the walls of the cage, plus the ones standing in each corner, almost table-sized, those ones. And behind the mirrors on the wall? Weapons. Won t know which kind until someone breaks that glass.

Sharper: Not the best view from ringside, but rest assured our camera crew will get every angle, and it won t be long until some of those mirrors start to break.

Kayl: For better or worse. Mostly worse!

The opening of Shot from a Cannon by Chevelle can be heard blaring through the PA system. The camera pans through the curtain as the face of James Evans appears, igniting a negative reaction from the crowd, as they shower him in jeers. The camera remains on James as he breaks through the curtain. The boos intensify as James looks out at the crowd, a confident smirk on his face.

Phillips: Introducing first, the challenger, from Boone, North Carolina, he is James Evans!

Ten minutes in he's sweating

Should I have asked for more than fame?

Ignore that beast, he's smiling

It's not 'til next New Year's Eve

James slowly makes his way to the ring, as images of him winning various championships and hitting various moves appear on the screen. He reaches the ring and stops, staring up at the cage.

Sharper: James Evans, stopping at the cage, looking at his creation.

Kayl: Maybe feeling a bit of regret, like Frankenstein! As much punishment as he wants to inflict on Cid, he has to realize that he s just as much at risk of everything inside there.

Sharper: Even so, you can sense the confidence.

James then makes his way up the ring steps, before turning and facing the crowd, who continue to boo.

Set him down to a real life failure

Held fast like the field mice, been there

Give a nod as if he knows, come round

Dead last with a drumroll when the dam blows

James goes to the corner and stares deeply into the mirror laid up against the turnbuckle pads. His music slowly fades as he turns to look towards the ramp.

Sharper: James ending the career of Amy Chastaine just weeks ago. You know he has to be thinking about that right now.

Kayl: And you can bet Cid is, too! He could be next on the chopping block!

The lights slowly dim down. The crowd buzzes in anticipation, many of them taking their phones out and lighting up the arena with their flashlights. After a few moments of silence, Dark Child by Marlon Williams plays as the lights flash back on. The big screen shows several highlights of Cid Turner's career as the song continues to play. The crowd roars as Cid makes his way onto the stage, the SCW World Championship around his waist. Cid stares tensely out towards the crowd, taking a moment to let it all soak in. After a big breath, he begins walking down the ramp.

Phillips: And his opponent, from Denver, Colorado, he is the SCW World Champion Cid Turner!

My little blonde-haired, blue-eyed boy

One day you'll grow up and be distressed

One day you'll grow up and reject everything

I've set out for you

Cid continues his walk down the ramp and keeps his eye on the ring while continually muttering to himself. Cid stops just short of the ring, taking in the structure ahead of him.

Sharper: Now Cid getting a look at Shattered Reality.

Kayl: And something worth noting is Cid s family isn t here in Montreal tonight. We saw them celebrating with him inside the ring after his successful defence at Under Attack, but staying back home in their Chicago residence tonight.

Sharper: Given what we re looking at, it s probably for the best.

Kayl: James has to consider that a sort of early victory on his part, right? He s forced Cid to make an uncomfortable decision, all before the bell has even rung. He s in his head!

Cid rubs his hands over his face before climbing up and going through the cage door. From the opposite side of the ring, James stares him down. The music begins to fade out as senior official Aaron Demitra walks beside him. Without breaking eye contact from James, Cid takes the SCW World Championship off and extends it towards Demitra. Demitra takes the title and holds it over his head before handing it off to a crew member waiting at the cage door.

Kayl: Aaron Demitra is gonna have his hands full tonight!

Sharper: He s officiated a lot of matches over the years, but obviously nothing like this. A one of a kind match.

Demitra instructs a crew member to lock the cage door. As they do, he calls for the bell. The bell sounds, getting a roar from the crowd. Both James and Cid remain staring at one another from opposite corners of the ring.

Sharper: And here we go! For the first time, Shattered Reality!

Kayl: For the SCW World Championship! It s all on the line tonight!

The cameras pan around James and Cid, showing off the glass panes lining the cage, as well as the ones standing in each corner. James begins to pace slowly back and forth, while Cid is shown exhaling sharply and popping his neck and rolling his shoulders. After a few more tense moments, the two men finally begin to circle one another in the center of the ring. James lunges forward, locking up with Cid. James begins to push Cid back, slowly moving him towards the mirror in the corner. Cid is shown grimacing as he tries to push against James.

Sharper: James already going for the mirrors, one of those ones stood in the corner.

Kayl: And you see Cid, resisting, trying to keep it in the middle of the ring!

James then pulls Cid into a side headlock, smirking as he does so. Cid struggles a bit to break free, before Cid is shown driving his forearm into James back over and over, until James breaks the hold. Cid then shoves James into the ropes. James comes back and Cid takes him down with a power slam. Cid grimaces again.

Sharper: Only a few moves into this match, Cid with a grimace. On a reduced schedule here, but we all know his medical history.

Kayl: Just as we all know James will pounce on that, and fast!

Cid then grabs James into a headlock on the mat. Demitra checks on James, who slings his body around and stands up, with Cid standing up with him. James lands a few elbows to the ribs, before hooking Cid and going for a belly to back suplex, only for Cid to float over, landing on his feet. Cid grabs James around the neck from behind, hitting a reverse neck breaker. Cid then hooks the leg.

James powers out. James gets up but Cid rolls him up from behind, going for another pin.

James kicks out. Cid is shown going for another roll up, but James rolls through, before getting to his feet and kicking Cid in the face. Cid falls back, grabbing at his face while James slowly circles him.

Sharper: A couple of quick pinfall attempts from the champion.

Kayl: Maybe trying to avoid really getting this match going. If Cid could end this without breaking a single mirror, he d be thrilled!

Cid rolls over and begins pushing himself up, only for James to charge over and kick Cid in the ribs. Cid drops to the mat. James follows this up with a series of stomps. One stomp to the lower back, another to the middle of the back, then one more towards Cid s upper back. Cid s body jerks with each stomp. He flips over onto his back.

Kayl: And like I said, James pouncing on that weakness of Cid here at the very start of this bout.

James pulls Cid up and hits Cid with a European uppercut, then a second, and a third. Cid staggers back a bit, before James grabs him and goes to whip him into the corner.

Sharper: Cid whipped towards that corner mirror!

Cid gets close to the mirror in the corner, but manages to stop himself. James is close behind. Cid grabs the ropes around the mirror, pulling himself up, using the momentum to leap back, up and over James. Cid then pushes James forward into the mirror, slightly cracking it, before rolling James up with an O Connor roll.

James pushes Cid off to break the pin. Cid once again skids to a stop in front of the corner mirror. He notices the slight crack. He stares at it and takes a deep breath.

Kayl: The first mirror crack!

Sharper: Not much of one, but you can see it having an effect

James pops up and pulls Cid into a back suplex. The crowd oohs as James sits up and looks at Cid before looking at the corner mirror. He chuckles lightly as he pulls himself back up.

Kayl: And James took advantage of Cid being, what, mesmerized, I guess, by that first crack.

Cid gets to a knee as James approaches him. James goes to grab him, but Cid hits him with an elbow to the gut. James doubles over. Cid pops up and grabs James into a headlock. James quickly counters with an elbow of his own, loosening Cid s grip. James slips out of the headlock and grapples with Cid. James presses forward, steering Cid back towards the corner. The crowd buzzes. Cid widens his base and shifts, turning them back towards the center of the ring. James drops his weight and drives Cid back again, this time forcing him towards the ropes. He shoves Cid off of him. Cid hits the ropes hard. The mirror behind him stops his momentum. A crack can be seen forming. James lunges forward and presses his forearm against Cid s chest, pressing him into the mirror. A crack can be heard under the buzzing crowd. Demitra watches closely as Cid tries to push back.

Kayl: Another crack!

Sharper: Not yet a full break, but Demitra looking on. He has to be wondering how long before this gets out of hand.

Kayl: Cid trying his best to make it so it never does, but can he hold?

Cid stomps on James foot, lessening the pressure of the hold. Cid drives a knee into James stomach. James stumbles back. Cid runs at James and goes for a clothesline. James ducks, but Cid smoothly slips behind him and locks in a sleeper hold.

Sharper: Cid going old school with a sleeper!

James wildly swings his arms backwards, trying to clip Cid. Cid keeps the hold on strong.

Kayl: Cid going with what s familiar: pure wrestling. James trying to deny him of that familiarity, but so far Cid has managed to cut the outer-ring off for the most part.

James steps forward and pushes himself against the ropes. He uses the momentum to push himself and Cid to the mat. On impact, Cid releases the sleeper hold and instead manages to slip James into an awkward crucifix pin.

James rolls out of it. He manages to rise up before Cid and hits him with a big boot. The crowd oohs. James lays in a few more stomps on Cid s body. Cid covers up, but James keeps plugging away. Demitra tries to get between them. James harshly shoves him away. Demitra steps back and puts his hands up.

Sharper: Demitra trying to protect Cid there.

Kayl: Yeah, Cid once again going for a flash pin, but to no avail, and I think he s just pissing James off now. Demitra, as much as he wants to help, can t do a damn thing! No holds barred, Sharper!

James returns to Cid, pulling him up to his feet. He grabs Cid and snapmares him down to the mat. Cid pops into a seated position while wincing. James backs up to make some space before running forward and coming back with a low kick to Cid s back. Cid grits his teeth and rolls away. Demitra steps next to James, but doesn t do anything except shake his head. James blows by Demitra and walks towards the cracked mirror behind the ropes. He suddenly elbows it, completely shattering it. Tiny shards of glass fall in a pile near the ropes. The crowd roars.

Sharper: Oh, and here we go! Evans breaking the first mirror!

Kayl: You can see the remnants of the mirror now littered on the mat, but not only that we know there s a weapon in that thing!

Sharper: As slow as this has started, James is done playing around.

James just looks inside the mirror with a smirk. The camera shifts to reveal a crowbar hanging inside the cabinet. The crowd continues to roar. Instead of grabbing it, James turns back to Cid, who slowly rises to a vertical base. Cid locks eyes with James, who simply takes a step to the side and gestures towards the cabinet.

Sharper: We see the crowbar. James sees it, now making sure Cid sees it.

Kayl: James seeing it, but not grabbing it. Almost like he s rolling out the red carpet for Cid to grab it.

Sharper: He said he wanted to force Cid to experience the reality of what he has to do. Well, here it is.

Kayl: Cid not going for it though!

Cid just shakes his head and raises his arms, ready to grapple. James scoffs. He reaches into the cabinet, grabs the crowbar, and throws it at Cid. The crowd gasps as Cid drops to the mat to dodge it. The crowbar flies into another mirror across the ring, exploding it on impact. The crowd roars.

Sharper: Another mirror broken, this time accidentally!

Kayl: What s behind that one?

Cid starts to get up, but James suddenly leaps forward and drills him with Wish You Hell.

Sharper: Oh, that vicious punt, right to Cid s skull!

Cid falls back to the mat, rolling onto his back. James falls forward into the cover.

Cid throws a shoulder up. James shifts his body on top of Cid and starts raining down forearms. Cid tries to cover up. He manages to roll over and get loose from James. He crawls away towards the ropes. He suddenly yelps out and looks at his arm. We can see small shards of glass sticking into his arm, tiny pools of blood slowly forming. The crowd roars.

Sharper: Cid trying to get away, but inadvertently crawling into the broken glass!

James gets to his feet and sees Cid sweeping out tiny bits of glass from his arm. James runs up behind him and stomps on his back. Cid cries out again. James then gets on Cid s back and forcefully shoves his head into the mat. The crowd ohs as James tries to grind Cid s face in the fine glass.

Kayl: And this is what James was looking for! Cid tried to keep this a wrestling match, but in an attempt to keep things grounded, he crawled right into everything James wanted.

James gets up and drags Cid across the ring, small bits of glass getting into his upper back and shoulders. James drags Cid to the other side of the ring where the other pile of finely shattered glass sits next to the crowbar. James violently flings Cid towards the pile and looks down at him. He stomps Cid s back again. Cid rolls onto his back, grinding into the bits of glass. James drops down again, seemingly to push Cid further into the glass, but Cid reaches out and grabs the nearby crowbar. He holds it up and uses it as a jam between his throat and James forearm. The crowd roars.

Sharper: Cid now, using that crowbar!

Kayl: Just like James wanted, but maybe not in the way James imagined defensively!

James keeps pressing down and Cid keeps using the crowbar to ease the pressure. Cid swings a knee into James side. James shakes it off. Cid throws another, then another, until James finally rolls off. Cid rolls out of the glass and slides the crowbar away before crawling towards the corner. The camera shifts to James, who nurses his side with a smile on his face.

Sharper: Cid tossing the crowbar away. He didn t want it, but he needed it in that moment.

Kayl: But look at the smile from Evans. He made Cid use that crowbar. Cid throwing it away, but James and I think all of us here sensing that this match is about to change.

James stands and walks over to the open cabinet. We see now that there s a steel chair mounted sideways in the mirror. James takes it out, only to reveal that there is another one mounted directly behind it. James smirks and takes the other one out. He sees Cid get up in the corner. He tosses Cid the spare chair. Before Cid even has a chance to pick it up, James charges, holding the chair above his head. He swings wildly, but Cid ducks it. Cid picks up the other chair. He turns around to see James swinging at him again. Cid uses the chair as a shield. The chairs smack against each other. James drops the chair and shakes his hands. Cid jabs the chair into James stomach. James doubles over. Cid drops the chair and grabs James by the head, going for a DDT. James blocks it by standing his ground. He jabs Cid in the Cid. Cid falls to a knee. James brings him back up by the throat. He hoists Cid up and drops him with a chokeslam on the steel chair. The crowd ohs. James drops for a cover.

Cid violently pushes James off and rolls onto his stomach, nursing his back. James gets up and stays on Cid, immediately dropping onto his back with an elbow drop. Cid roars in pain. James flips him onto his back and goes for another cover.

Cid kicks out just before two and rolls away.

Sharper: Evans now, going for a couple covers.

Kayl: Already got Cid to play a little dirty, now just testing him with these covers. I think James knows it ll take more than this, but he wants to keep Cid honest and remind him how quickly he could lose everything.

James gets up and goes to one of the unbroken mirrors on the cage. He throws an elbow to break a mirror. The crowd roars as James reaches into the cabinet. He pulls out a burlap sack and looks at it curiously.

Sharper: James breaking another mirror, really forcing the issue now.

Kayl: And I don t know if he requested not to know what was put behind those mirrors, maybe to keep this fun, the sick bastard but it looks like he doesn t know what s inside that bag!

James undoes the tie on the sack and starts pouring out its contents in the middle of the ring. A fine and shiny powder starts to spread out on the canvas. The crowd roars as James watches it all slowly spill.

Sharper: If I m not mistaken, that looks like the same debris that Cid Turner has already been dragged through in this match. I think that s glass, all ground up!

Kayl: James broke the glass to reveal more glass!

Sharper: And this is huge, because he s taken away Cid s strategy. The middle of the ring is no longer a safe haven where he can regroup, where he can make a pinfall attempt, where he can breathe. James Evans has effectively turned the ring into a minefield!

James empties the remaining contents of the bag. Cid starts to get to his feet. James goes behind him and places the burlap sack over his head. He pulls back, basically choking Cid while also blinding him. Cid reaches up and tries to scratch at James arms. James lets go and lifts Cid up for another back suplex. Cid tries to twist in mid-air to lessen the impact, but James still drops him down, just outside a pile of glass.

Sharper: You saw Cid there, trying to protect his back. Don t know how much he did, but at least just missed that glass.

Kayl: Burning energy trying just trying to land safely. I think he s realizing he s in big trouble here.

Cid takes the sack off of his head and throws it to the corner. He gets on his hands and knees, but is surprised to get a handful of glass. He winces and quickly gets to his feet. James is right there, grabbing Cid s arm and tossing him directly into the glass. The crowd roars. Cid winces. We can see small trickles of blood down his arm and side. Cid looks at the blood himself and shakes his head. James starts heading towards him. Cid grabs one of the nearby chairs and tosses it onto some of the glass. Cid gets to his feet and goes to the corner. James kicks the chair away from the pile.

Sharper: Cid placing the chair over the pile, maybe seeing it as a lesser evil than the glass.

Kayl: James having none of it, but look at Cid now, in the corner.

Cid takes the glass pane from the corner and leans it against the ropes, away from the turnbuckles. He turns to see James approaching him from behind. Cid hops up on the second turnbuckle and uses it as a springboard, twisting in the air and landing on James with a crossbody into the pile of glass! Cid remains on top for a cover.

James kicks out. He rolls over to his stomach and we can see freckles of blood springing up on his bare back. The crowd roars as Cid gets back to his feet, looking around the ring.

Sharper: Cid once again finding a way to defend himself. Didn t get the pinfall, but got some much needed momentum in a dangerous environment.

Kayl: Now looking for something more, too.

Cid goes to another corner and grabs a pane of glass. He carries it over to the previous corner and places the pane of glass on top of the other.

Sharper: And I think he s trying to open up the ring once again, taking those panes of glass out of the corners.

Kayl: James taking away the middle, but Cid trying to regain the corners. Not a bad idea, but be careful with that stack of two panes against the ropes now!

Cid straightens the panes up against the ropes. He turns and is immediately met by James swinging a crowbar into his gut. Cid falls to his knees. James gets behind him and wraps the crowbar around Cid s throat. Cid s hands shoot up in a desperate attempt to ease the pressure. Meanwhile, James drives a knee into Cid s back while still wrenching back. The crowd roars as James puts more of his weight into it.

Sharper: James now, using that crowbar to his advantage! No more messing around!

Kayl: Cid trying to use his hands to relieve the pressure. Not like he could use them for a rope break, anyway!

Cid keeps clawing away at the crowbar, trying to wedge his fingers between steel and his throat. He shifts his weight sideways. James pulls him back straight. The crowd buzzes as the camera picks up panic in Cid s eyes. He powers to his feet. James loses the pressure of the knee to the back, but he keeps the crowbar around Cid s neck. Cid blindly stumbles backwards towards the ropes. James gets pushed up against the two standing panes of glass.

Sharper: Look out now, nowhere to go for either man!

Kayl: And Cid, not even really trying to escape, just trying to breathe, but look at where he s at now!

James keeps the crowbar on Cid s throat, but glances behind him to see he s up against the two panes. Unable to break free, Cid slowly starts to fade. Demitra slides in to grab Cid s arm, raising it up before letting go. Cid weakly keeps his arm up. It slowly starts to come down. Suddenly, James drops the crowbar and spins Cid around.

Sharper: Wait, James letting go

Kayl: I think he wants something worse!

Cid falls into James arms. James grapples him into a belly-to-belly position. James snarls something into Cid s ear. Cid just barely comes to and sees his own reflection over James shoulder. He goes to reach out towards the glass panes, but James blocks his arm. James goes to hoist Cid up, but Cid widens his base and hooks a leg around James shin. The crowd roars.

Sharper: Oh, my God, James going for a belly-to-belly suplex into those panes of glass!

Kayl: Cid getting a second wind, though, trying to block it!

James grits his teeth and adjusts his grip. He arches harder while Cid s leg holds desperately around James shin. James releases the hold and quickly blasts Cid with a European uppercut. The crowd ohs. Cid falls back, heading towards the glass pile on the mat, but James reaches out and pulls him back into a belly-to-belly grip. Without hesitating, James launches Cid up over his head, sending him flying through the two panes of glass with a suplex! The crowd roars as the glass panes explode. Cid s shoulders and spine plow through the glass before he lands awkwardly on his neck.

Sharper: My God! That suplex! Through two huge sheets of glass!

Kayl: And look at how Cid landed!

Demitra slides in, landing next to Cid, who s in a heap, clutching the back of his neck. James scoots back into a seated position, looking at Cid in the pile of shattered glass. His chest heaves as he stares at the wreckage. The crowd continues to roar.

Kayl: Demitra checking on Cid, but there s nothing he can do. This match is still going on.

Sharper: And look at Evans, not even going for a cover. I don t know if he s stunned or satisfied.

Kayl: I mean, that move wasn t about winning. I think this is him making a point. This isn t over.

Cid doesn t get up. He stays on the mat, nursing his neck and occasionally kicking his leg.

Sharper: And remember, Cid set those panes up. He thought he was working defensively, but now look.

Kayl: Every choice has a cost in a match like this.

James slowly rises to his feet. He looks at Demitra checking on Cid. Instead of pouncing, James just stands back. Demitra gets up and walks towards James.

James: You done?

James shoulder checks Demitra as he makes his way towards Cid. James reaches down and drags Cid out of the pile of glass. James stops in the middle of the ring and lets Cid go. Cid weakly rolls to his side. James leans down and picks Cid up. Cid swings wildly, but James dodges it. Cid goes for another right, but James blocks it before kicking Cid in the gut. Cid doubles over.

Sharper: Cid struggling to orient himself. This is bad.

James slides behind Cid and grabs him with a waistlock. He swiftly hoists Cid up before snapping him down with a quick German suplex into the glass. The crowd ohs as Cid once again clutches at his neck.

Sharper: Damn it. A snap German suplex, right into the glass. For Cid s sake, I hope that does it.

James crawls over some glass to finally go for a cover.

Cid kicks out just before three. The crowd roars. James looks up at Demitra, who throws up two fingers. James shakes his head.

Kayl: That didn t do it, and James learning that it s somehow going to take more to keep Cid down tonight.

James gets back to his feet and surveys the destruction around him. His eyes scan what s left - a crowbar, two panes of glass set up in separate corners, two steel chairs, and a handful of unbroken mirrors. The crowd buzzes as James picks up one of the chairs. He unfolds it and sets it down. He grabs the other and walks a few feet away from the placed chair, but then stops. He looks back at Cid, who just lays in a pile of glass, mostly unmoving. James drops the chair and walks to Cid. He grabs him and sits him upright. Cid rigidly stays up, his body hunched in pain, curling in on itself. James goes and picks up the other chair, unfolding it and setting it up a few feet opposite of the other chair.

Sharper: Don t know what Evans is thinking here, but whatever it is, he wants Cid to see it.

Kayl: Let him see it, let him imagine it. He doesn t want to catch Cid off guard with anything. He wants Cid to really live through this.

James starts to head to another corner with a standing pane of glass, but he stops as he spots Cid very slowly rising to his feet. The crowd roars, urging Cid on.

Sharper: Cid not gonna just sit by and watch! He s still fighting!

Kayl: At this point, you re right - just making it to his feet is a fight.

James can t help but laugh as Cid makes it to a vertical base. James walks away from the corner and makes his way to Cid. Cid bursts out with a forearm and catches James. The crowd cheers. James stumbles back. Cid stays on him and hits him with a right. James falls against the ropes, but he uses the momentum to launch himself forward and take Cid down with a vicious clothesline. The crowd ohs before booing.

Kayl: James snuffing out Cid s momentum almost instantly.

James holds his jaw and shakes his head. He drops down for a weak cover.

Cid valiantly throws a shoulder up. The crowd roars. James looks down at Cid with disdain.

Sharper: Momentum or not, Cid not giving up! Kicking out at one after that big clothesline!

James reaches to grab Cid, but Cid suddenly pulls James into a triangle choke! The crowd roars as James flails around.

Sharper: Oh, Cid with the triangle! He s got it!

Demitra slides in and checks on James. James throws his head forward and blasts Cid with a headbutt. Cid lets go of the hold and rolls away, holding his eye.

Kayl: Jesus, James just blasting Cid with that headbutt. Doing damage to himself to live to see another day. It worked!

Both James and Cid go to opposite sides of the ring. Cid pulls himself up using the ropes and we see blood gushing down his face, a leak springing from his eyebrow.

Sharper: Worked too well. Cid busted open from that shot.

Kayl: And if you re our World Champion, you have to start worrying about blood loss with that and all the glass around.

James gets up just after Cid and starts heading towards him across the ring. Cid turns around and is immediately met with a sharp jab to the head from James. Cid bounces into the ropes and back towards James, who knees him in the stomach. James keeps a hold of Cid s head. James presses two fingers to his lips before taking them and grinding them into Cid s open wound. The crowd oohs.

Sharper: That Kiss of Disdain from Evans, setting up for Embrace the Onslaught!

James swings his elbow, but Cid ducks it and slips behind him. He grabs James into an inverted facelock and drops James down onto his knee with a backbreaker. He springs back up before dropping James into another backbreaker.

Kayl: Cid countering with Ode to Caesar!

Instead of a reverse DDT, Cid suddenly grabs James by the head and drops him straight into the glass with a bulldog! The crowd explodes as both Cid and James writhe in the glass.

Sharper: Oh, but he modified it, turning it into a bulldog straight into the glass shards!

Cid crawls through the glass and winces as he pushes James over for the cover.

James rolls out of the cover, but Cid quickly grabs him from behind and locks in a bulldog choke!

Sharper: Cid with the bulldog choke! He s got it locked in!

Kayl: And James chest just buried in that glass while Cid wrenches back!

James eyes dart around. He reaches around desperately. After a few moments, he shifts his body around and starts crawling forward, glass grinding into his exposed skin. The crowd ohs and buzzes.

Sharper: Evans crawling through glass!

Kayl: But for what? No rope breaks!

James crawls alongside the two set up chairs. He wildly swings his leg at them. He gets nothing but air a few times, but then manages to catch one with his foot, sending it flying towards the corner. It hits a pane of glass set up in the corner and sends it tumbling. It hits the mat and explodes on impact, landing just short of both men. Cid jolts in surprise, looking over to see the debris. James uses this brief distraction to slip out of the bulldog choke and roll away.

Sharper: And look at that, James sacrificing one of those panes just to escape!

Kayl: And you know he hated to do that. Only one extra pane left now.

Both James and Cid get to their feet. James goes for a clothesline, but Cid ducks it. James turns around and gets a boot to the stomach. Cid grabs James and twists him before planting him with the Sovereign Takeover into a pile of glass! The crowd explodes as both men lie on their backs.

Sharper: Cid! The Sovereign Takeover! Into the glass!

Kayl: Somehow, a miracle! Holy hell!

Blood pools on James forehead and chest and stomach as he lays unmoving. Cid turns his body through the glass to go towards James. We see small cuts and gashes along his spine. Cid slowly crawls over James and weakly hooks a leg for the cover.

James kicks out just before three! The crowd roars as Cid rolls off of James and just looks up to the ceiling.

Sharper: Lord! James kicking out of Cid s signature move! Not even a handful of people can say they ve done that!

Kayl: James maybe benefitting from Cid taking a while to get to the cover, plus the fact that he hasn t taken as much damage as Cid has through all of this. It s his game, but he s got to start considering that maybe it s his reality that s about to be shattered.

Sharper: And James wanted the old Cid for this match. I don t think Cid s regressing to that. I think he s being the most present version of himself and using that to stay alive. We ve never seen Cid Turner like this before.

Kayl: But like I said, every choice has a cost in this match. What s the cost for Cid refusing to die? For James?

Cid uses James body to push himself up, avoiding touching the glass. He grabs James legs and spreads them, seemingly going for a sharpshooter. James kicks Cid back. Cid stumbles back and slips on a shard of glass. He awkwardly falls into some glass, but quickly recovers to get back to his feet. James gets to a knee. Cid goes to grab him. James throws his arm up to nail Cid with a low blow. The crowd ohs then boos. Cid clutches himself before falling to the mat. James gets up and wipes some blood off of his face.

Sharper: Oh, come on! The low blow from Evans!

Kayl: Well, anything goes. We know that by now.

James looks around the ring as the crowd continues to boo. He walks towards a mirror and punches it open. Without even looking inside, he goes to the next mirror and punches that one open. He repeats this over and over until he reaches the last unbroken mirror. He roars loudly before breaking it. He turns to Cid, who s struggling to get up.

Sharper: I don t even know what just happened. James going and breaking every mirror, but not even bothering to look at the weapons lying in the cabinets.

Kayl: I think just frustration, Sharper. The low blow, the crashout. Cid hasn t fully played into James game, yet he almost picked up a victory here. As much as James has had the mental advantage, that might be slipping!

Sharper: Well, whatever weapons are in those cabinets, they re all available now. The mirrors are gone and the ring has been stripped of its illusion. God help us.

James kicks Cid in the side of the head. Cid drops to the mat again. James stomps Cid before walking over him to go to one of the open cabinets. He reaches in and pulls out a chain before throwing it behind him. He goes to another cabinet and reaches in, this time pulling out a kendo stick. Again, he tosses it to the side.

Sharper: James just littering the ring, and I don t even know if this is strategy or just pure rage.

James goes to another cabinet and goes inside before pulling out a board of barbed wire. The crowd roars at the reveal.

Kayl: Another pane, but not of glass. Barbed wire!

James sets the board up against the ropes. He then goes to another cabinet. He reaches in and pulls out a taped up baseball bat. Instead of tossing it to the ground, he holds it with both hands and turns back to Cid, who s just beginning to stir.

Sharper: James making a choice now, settling on that baseball bat.

Kayl: Spring training has come early!

Sharper: And Cid only just coming to, seeing all of this around him like shrapnel.

Cid gets up. James charges him and swings the bat. Cid ducks under it and bolts away. The bat cracks against both the cage and a cabinet, echoing throughout the arena. James turns to see Cid holding a kendo stick.

Sharper: Cid, maybe out of desperation, going for that kendo stick, but in a battle of kendo stick versus baseball bat, I don t know who s choosing the kendo!

James slowly walks towards Cid. Cid pushes the kendo stick forward, using it almost as a spear. James leaps back to dodge the jab. Cid keeps it up, creating some space between him and James.

Kayl: Cid using it the same way he s done everything else tonight - to survive!

Sharper: And James hates that.

James steps forward and swings the bat. Cid holds up the kendo stick defensively, but it folds in half on impact of the bat. Cid tosses the kendo stick. James goes for another swing. Cid ducks down and lunges at James with a double-leg takedown. James drops the bat and watches it roll away. Cid shifts and goes for another bulldog choke. James slips out of it and ends up behind Cid. Cid turns and James goes for Embrace the Onslaught. Cid ducks in and slips behind James before rolling him up into a schoolboy.

James pushes out of it and rolls to his feet. Cid gets up just behind him. James goes for a kick to the gut. Cid catches his leg and spins him around before hitting James with a kick of his own. James doubles over. Cid grabs him and twists him for another Sovereign Takeover, but James slips out of it. Cid goes for a clothesline. James ducks it, but catches Cid and pushes him towards the barbed wire board against the ropes. Cid plants his feet and stops them both. James knees Cid in the back, dropping Cid to a knee. James hoists him back up for a quick backbreaker. The crowd ohs. James falls forward for a cover.

Cid kicks out and tries to roll away, but stops just short of the barbed wire board. James gets up and walks towards the loose chain. He grabs it and quickly wraps it around his elbow. He tugs on it to make sure it stays snug.

Sharper: Cid avoiding that barbed wire, but falling into a devastating backbreaker to cut his momentum short.

Kayl: And now James has something planned with that chain around his arm!

James stalks Cid, who is using the ropes to pull himself back up, steering clear of the nearby barbed wire board lying up against the ropes. James mutters to himself as Cid slowly turns around. James lunges forward and blasts Cid with Embrace the Onslaught! Cid crumbles to the mat. The crowd roars as James just looks down at Cid, slowly unwrapping the chain from his arm.

Sharper: No! Embrace the Onslaught, with the chain!

Kayl: Right to Cid s wound above his eyebrow. Damn it. He s gushing.

James falls to his knees and drops onto Cid, hooking the leg for the cover.

Cid s leg happens to hit the bottom half of the barbed wire board.

The board falls down onto James, who pops up. The crowd roars as the barbed wire catches the skin of James back.

Sharper: Oh, and that board! That board breaking the fall!

Kayl: It doesn t matter, James! Rip it off and cover Cid and end this!

James stands up and awkwardly reaches back to dislodge the board from his back. He angrily flings it to the other side of the ring. He drops back down and goes for another cover, hooking both of Cid s legs.

Cid just barely kicks out. The crowd explodes as James gets up and starts pounding the mat.

Sharper: Cid Turner! Kicking out!

Kayl: Jesus Christ. Just stay down, Cid. James will only keep escalating this.

James shoots up and grabs Demitra. Demitra throws up two fingers. James shoves Demitra away. James turns and looks at Cid, who remains laid out, his face up against the mat. Blood bloods on the canvas and glass. James then turns his attention to the lone chair set up. He finds the other chair he kicked away earlier and picks it up. Once again, he sets it up across from the other standing chair. He then looks over to the corner and stares deeply at the last pane of glass standing. The crowd roars while he makes his way to the corner and picks it up.

Sharper: Evans wielding that entire pane of glass now. The last unbroken glass in this match.

Kayl: Sacrificed the other pane to escape Cid s submission earlier, then of course using two for that heinous suplex, which seems like it happened hours ago, at this point. This has to end.

Sharper: And I think James is thinking the same damn thing.

James goes over to the two chairs and sets the pane of glass across them.

Sharper: Evans building a bridge of glass using those two chairs. I don t like the look of this.

Kayl: Not at all. That glass bridge is like a loaded gun on the table.

James straightens the glass out before looking down at his handiwork. His eyes shift to Cid, who is being checked on by Demitra. A slight smirk returns to James face. He steps around the structure he s built and goes towards Cid. James shoves Demitra out of the way then picks Cid up. He drags Cid towards the glass bridge and stops in front of it before placing Cid in a powerbomb position. The crowd roars in concern.

Sharper: Oh, no. Shades of Amy Chastaine s last match. Damn it, no.

James goes to hoist Cid up, but suddenly stops. He takes Cid out from between his legs and holds him up, looking at his face. James slaps Cid. Cid groggily jolts back, but James keeps ahold of him. James slaps him again and then turns his head towards the glass and chairs. Cid s eyes seemingly take a while to focus, but they eventually lock onto the bridge.

Kayl: Cid getting flashbacks to that moment, and that s the worst place he wants to be right now - in James memory.

Sharper: And James wants him to be aware of what s about to happen!

James knees Cid in the stomach before setting him up for a powerbomb once again. He goes to hoist him up, but Cid deadweights and falls to his knees, legs digging into glass. James shakes his head before yanking Cid back up and clubbing him a few times on the back. James sets Cid up again and goes to hoist him up, but has trouble. James roars in frustration before dragging Cid around the bridge.

Sharper: And I don t think James even had the strength to lift Cid.

Kayl: Neither man has the strength for any of this!

James shoves Cid into the corner chest-first. He then grabs Cid and struggles to hoist him up onto the top turnbuckle, but just manages to do so. The crowd starts buzzing.

Sharper: Oh, God. No. He really does want to end another legend.

Kayl: And you can feel the dread from this crowd, from everyone here. We ve all seen what the Fall of Abel took from Amy.

James steps onto the ropes alongside the corner and manages to position himself close to Cid. Before he can set up for the Fall of Abel, he notices Cid s leg locked around the middle rope. He reaches down and rips it off. James goes to grab Cid, but Cid reaches for the cage and grips onto it. James hits Cid with a couple of right hands. Cid tanks the blows and holds on tight. James reaches out and scrapes at Cid s brow wound. Cid cries out and instinctually grabs his face. James shoves Cid down and bends him over. He grabs Cid s waist to set him up for Fall of Abel.

Kayl: There s nothing left after this.

Before James can throw Cid off with the powerbomb, Cid once again reaches out and grabs the cage. James lets go and climbs up on the second rope, basically straddling Cid s back. James starts clawing away at Cid s hands. Cid suddenly lets go and drops down, ending up behind James with his feet planted on the mat. He slips back under James and locks him into a powerbomb position! The crowd roars.

Sharper: Oh, and Cid! Cid with the counter!

Kayl: Looking for his own Fall of Abel!

Cid stops for a moment as the crowd continues to roar. James starts desperately throwing rights at Cid s head.

Sharper: But hesitating! James pounding away now!

Kayl: And after all the defensive moves, I think Cid is realizing what he has to do to finally win this match, and I don t know if he wants to do it!

Cid then finally hoists James up. He takes a couple of slow steps forward. We see James glance back behind him, realizing what s coming. He throws a few more right hands before Cid throws him forward with the Fall of Abel through the glass! The crowd explodes as the glass shatters and the two chairs fall to the mat on impact.

Sharper: Cid! With the Fall of Abel!

Kayl: But does he even have the strength to make the cover?

Demitra checks on both men. Cid slowly crawls through the wreckage towards James. He manages to roll onto his back on top of James for the cover.

The bell sounds. Dark Child starts playing throughout the arena as Cid remains laid out on top of James. Demitra immediately continues to check on him.

Phillips: And here is your winner, via pinfall, and still SCW World Champion, Cid Turner!

Slowly, the cage begins to rise. Demitra gently pulls Cid off of James. James remains unmoving.

Sharper: I can t believe it. Cid Turner, somehow surviving.

Kayl: I don t even know what to say. It s been his story since coming back at Taking Hold of the Flame, but it reaches a point where the story becomes unbelievable and yet, here we are.

Sharper: Evans trying to author the ending tonight with Shattered Reality. Cid, though, refusing to be a character in James story. Now I guess James is forced to live inside his own legacy, his own creation. My God.

The SCW World Championship is handed to Demitra. He places it on Cid s chest. Cid weakly reaches up and clutches the belt against his chest. Several medical personnel begin making their way down the ramp as the cage continues to rise.

Kayl: And that entire match, Cid basically surviving, purely on instincts, refusing to fully play James game, but then, at the end using James own move against him, in his own match, through a hazard he created that was all deliberate. Cid did what needed to be done, which I guess was what James wanted all along. It goes back to what I ve said throughout this entire match, though: everything has a cost. For James, for Cid

Sharper: Well, we ll see that cost in the new year. Thank you for joining us tonight for SCW s final show of 2025. What a way to go out. We ll see you in the new year, and what a new year it s setting up to be!

The medical personnel all enter the ring and start to look after both men, who remain on the battlefield of the canvas. We get a shot of Cid Turner still holding onto the SCW World Championship as the scene fades to black.
