RoP presents Meltdown
08/23/2010
Peaks Ice Arena
Provo, UT
Attendance: 950

TWO WEEKS AGO

Terry Marvin and Ace Andrews were laid out by a large man. He grabbed his cell phone and called a number.

Man: Task One completed, ma'am, proceed to task two?

Anilya's Voice: Proceed with task two, Red Dragon, and if you see Simon, give him my regards and the same reminder those two felt.

Red Dragon: Understood.

LATER THAT NIGHT

The man, called Deflar, unleashed a barrage on Kevin Legacy, leaving him a bloodied mess.

Deflar: Join us, or be destroyed, like Kevin has been. You have until the next Meltdown to make your decision.

After the recap is played, Simon is in the ring, with a piece of paper in hand. On the paper it says Ring of Pride application, with Deflar Linos on the top of it in big bold letters. Simon has a condescending smirk on his face as he lifts the microphone up to his face.

Simon: Last Meltdown, Teflon had the audacity to show up, unannounced, and attack Ace Andrews and Terry Marvin. He then had the nerve to set into MY ring and attack Kevin Legacy, leaving him a bloodied mess that let him with twenty stitches in his forehead. He also is saying, and doing, these things on behalf of one Anilya Gaian, who hasn't been seen since Out for Blood, when she was taken out by Ace and Terry.

Price: He has valid points.

Strong: Shut up, stupid, he's speaking.

Simon: Anilya and Teflon are trying to play hardball with me, the Master. Unfortunately, I have bad news for them and their so-called "Family". This is the Ring of Pride, not the Ring of Anilya. This is my company, MY child, and I won't let anyone-- not Anilya, Teflon, Alexander, whoever-- trample all over it and degrade and kill it. You want to play hardball with me, go right away. I know all the rules, I know this game inside and out. You want to make a move, go ahead. In the end, I'll place the check mate on you, thus ending this little coup, or whatever this is.

Suddenly, Deflar walks out from behind the curtain, microphone in hand, and a note card in the other.

Deflar: It's "D-E-F-L-A-R" you stupid, ignorant, washed up, loser. I've played hardball for years, and I've played harder than any peons you've directed or coached. Be thankful that Anilya wants Ace and Terry, otherwise they would still be in the hospital even now.

Simon: Deflar, Teflon, whatever. Think for a minute on who you've allied yourself with. Anilya has a given history of disappearing after both Out for Bloods we've had, She's also been in the title picture, only to fail and pull out, so she's probably upset over that. As for you, I suggest changing teams, for you've allied with a failure, and she'll just drag you down.

Deflar: While I am allied with her...for now, it's only a means to make OUR presence known. By our, I mean me and my "family". Simon, if you value your champion, make sure extra security is at ring-side, or else they'll have fun with both Dillon AND Andrews.

Simon: Keep this in mind, Teflon, you're messing with the Sin City Syndicate, and we're the best of the best. Unlike your ally, Anilya, we know what it's like to be champions. As for you, since you applied here, next Meltdown, you're facing the very man you nearly sent to the hospital. That man is Kevin Legacy. That's not all, because of your interference, DJ Clay has requested you as well, so at the next Out for Blood at the end of September, which is two shows from now. Also, if you think of attacking the Sin City Syndicate again, we'll make sure you turn into our little bitches, and we'll make sure you don't get far in your, or her, quest for revenge.

Deflar looks at Simon sternly, then walks away, leaving behind the curtain.

Simon: OH, and Teflon, if you show your face around here again, security will be on you before you can sneeze. Consider this your only warning.

Price: Simon places down the law tonight, hoping for no more random attacks.

Strong: He's not like this normally. He feels threatened………….

The video stops and we go to shots around the arena where fans are screaming and standing as the show kicks off. We several signs such as “Deas= Jobber” and “IMW is SOL” as well as “I Want Lucas’ Peek” before we go to Stu and Arturius at the announcer’s table at ringside.

SP: Welcome everyone to Meltdown. What a chaotic night it was last week and what a night tonight promises to be. We just saw Deflar Linos get well…….verbally berated by Simon Sensation who notably had some security with him. That being said, you got to wonder what’s next for Deflar.

AS: A trip to the unemployment line, hopefully! Anyway, we have some huge action on tap tonight. The monster known as Levinator is going to make his in ring debut against Mr. Mojo Risin’ and after what we saw last week where Lev destroyed Alexander McIntyre during the main event, I feel bad for Mojo.

SP: We also got Tommy Hero and Finnious Boggs colliding. Both have shown some promise and surely have bright futures ahead of themselves here in RoP but only one of them will walk away with a huge win here tonight.

AS: And we’ll also see a trios match for the ages……NOT! The Children of the Night team with the Texas Television Champion Ace Andrews to take on Eric Hancock and the Tag Team Champions the Revolution and it should be a no brainer on who’s winning this one, folks…………score another one for da bad guys!

SP: Thanks, Razor Ridiculous. We’ll also see the RoP Southwestern Heavyweight Champion, Dillon D’Angelo in action. We’ll also see Ireland’s Most Wanted teaming up once again to take on Accident and Emergency.

AS: Either Deas and Ironfist are going to stake a claim to the Tag titles here or they’re going to fall flat on their faces. My best is for the second one, Stu.

SP: Speaking of me, in the main event I take on Terry Marvin and after the crap that him, Ace, Simon and Levinator have been pulling as what they’re now calling themselves, The Sin City Syndicate, it’s going to be all too sweet to finally get my hands on that cookie cutter asshole.

AS: Folks, we got that and so much more on tap, let’s send it up to Traci Loveshardons for the opening match!




TL: The following contest is set for one fall... already in the ring at this time, TOMMY WILSON!

Tommy raised his hand and looked a little nervous as the arena lights went black.

SP: Let’s get this slaughter over with, please..

AS: Yeah we know what is about to happen here.

TL: And his opponent... being lead to the ring by Dr. Jessica Sage, PROJECT: KEMICAL!

“Cold” Begins to play and as per usual, an Ironlunge is lead down to the entrance ramp where Dr. Jessica Sage is waiting. At a press of the button, steam escapes the seals of the lunge and Kemical is shown, strapped down. Sage unshackles him and points to the ring where Tommy Wilson looks on with fear in his eyes.

SP: How many moves, Strong?

AS: I say four moves... Kemical hits him, he hits the mat, Kemical hits him again, and he hits the mat again.

SP: I say five...

As soon as the bell rang, Tommy caught Kemical with a punch to the face, which only served to lead to a bigger uppercut right under the chin that knocked Tommy flat on the mat, Kemical picked him up and looked over at Sage who snapped her fingers. Kemical lifted him up into the military press and then landed the backbreaker and as Tommy’s limp body fell off the monster’s knee, Kemical placed one boot on his ribs as the referee counted the three.

TL: Here is your winner... PROJECT: KEMICAL!

AS: You win that one...

SP: Didn’t expect Tommy to attempt a punch.

AS: He did and he paid for it. My question is this? Can anyone stop this monster?

SP: My answer... no one.




The scene goes to the back with ROP interviewer Devon Saturday standing by.

Devon: "Ladies and Gentlemen, Devon Saturday here, your premier ROP backstage interviewer. And I'm standing by with the NEW force of ROP...The group of Ace Andrews, Terry Marvin and....uh, I don't believe I have the big guys' name."

The scene pans over to Ace with the Texas TV title standing next to The Real Show Terry Marvin. The Big man...Levinator stands behind them, towering over them both with his arms crossed and a scowl on his face. Ace and Terry Chuckle while the big man just stands there silently.

Ace: "Well, Devon, if you had been paying attention this week, you would have learned that this giant bitch is Levinator. He ain't got a lick of brains, but he's tough as a fucking bull and big as an elephant. This here is our insurance policy. He's our hired muscle, and those who think they're going to fuck with us are in for one LARGE surprise. Levinator, where are your manners...shake Mr. Saturday's hand."

Lev reaches over, his hand engulfing Devons. Without breaking a sweat, Lev gives a gentle squeeze on Devon's hand sending Devon to his knees yelping in pain. Lev soon lets go with a smile as Devon shakes off the sting and gets back to his feet.

Devon: "Well, over the last couple weeks, the three of you with the instruction of Simon Sensation have wreaked havoc on the Ring of Pride promotion. I for one think it's spectacular how you've just laid waste to the weak links here...but some of my comrades have questioned your motives. So I have to ask...what's this all about."

Terry and Ace look at each other. Ace goes to answer, but Terry cuts him off.

Terry: "Look... There's no huge secret agenda, there's no ultimate end game strategy here. We are the Syn City Syndicate....."

Devon: "The Syn City Syndicate???"

Terry looks extremely pissed at being cut off.

Terry: "YEAH BITCH! Open your fucking ears and don't ever interupt me again or you'll be picking shards of your spine out of your teeth for the rest of your pathetic life...."

Ace kinda steps in front of Terry to calm him down and Terry just smiles at Devon.

Ace: "Look man... Ring of Pride is based out of Las Vegas. Terry, Simon, and myself are all Vegas bread. We're just trying to represent our hometown the way it was meant to be represented. We're just here to make sure that Ring of Pride does Las Vegas proud. See we can't have assholes and peons like Alex McIntyre, Dillon DeAngelo, Shawna Rose, Anilya, or any other talentless poser without the ability to even tie our shoes make a mockery of this place! "

Terry: "See, Simon is trying his best to make ROP successful, but your fed is only as good as your talent, only as good as your roster. That's why he brought us in, his hand picked champions to lead ROP in the right direction....and weed out those who stand in the way of his goals. And so far that's exactly what we've done!"

Devon: “So, those who stand in your way. Does that mean guys like Eric Hancock, and Irelands Most Wanted?”

Terry: “Maybe. It might mean guys like Shadow and Paige. It might mean losers like Tommy Hero and DJ Clay. It might even mean you Devon. What it means, is if you’re in Simon’s way, you’re in our way. And getting in our way is a very bad idea.”

Devon: “Up next we’re going to see Levinator take on Dr Mojo Risin’. Is there anything you want to say about that match, Lev?”

Devon extends the mic Lev’s way, but Ace grabs his hand and pulls it towards him.

Ace: “Don’t bother trying to get him to talk, Devon. Lev only talks when I let him. I paid him a lot of money to be the strong and silent bodyguard, and I made a special point to make an emphasis on silence. As for Mojo, Lev’s going to go out there and make a special point to hurt him as much as possible. I highly doubt he’ll win, but that’s never the point for Lev. He’s not here to win matches. He’s here to cause destruction, and Mojo should be real wary of that.”

Devon: “Well, earlier tonight we saw the Red Dragons threaten any and all champions in RoP. Considering you’ll be fighting a match soon Ace, aren’t you worried what the Red Dragons might do?”

Ace: “Not even slightly, Devon. See, Red Dragons can run their mouths all they want. They can threaten us, to make themselves look good. But we know, that they don’t have the ability to back up their claims. So, if the Red Dragons do try and attack me, that’s when Lev gets involved. And trust me Devon, you don’t want Lev involved. Because as big and as scary as Deflon has made himself out to be, Lev here is bigger, tougher, and scarier.”

Terry then steps up beside Devon and places his hand on his shoulder.

Terry: “Besides Devon, you’re forgetting who we are. We’re The Chosen One’s of RoP. Essentially given a complete free pass to do what we want, and get Simon to give us what we want. And as for Deflar, well, lets just say that we know what’s coming for him. And if he manages to get past it, and only IF he manages to get past it, then we’ll consider him a threat. But until then, he’s just a chump like the rest of you. And we’re the Syn City Syndicate…”

Ace: “Living in Syn…”

Both: “And loving every minute of it.”

Ace and Terry then turn and walk off smiling. Lev pauses to snarl at Devon, making him step back before Levinator smiles and heads towards the arena as we fade to commercial.




TL: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Already in the ring, this is Mr. Mojo Risin’!

The crowd gives a rather indifferent reaction to Mojo, who raises his arms in the air.

SP: This man has crowned himself the RoP World Champion and has been nothing but a nuisance for the company. It makes me wonder why he’s even here.

AS: I’m wonder why he came to RoP in the first place and what his goals here are, but judging by who he’s against, he may not be here much longer……..

TL: And his opponent……representing The Sin City Syndicate………Levinator!

“My Way” hits as Levinator steps out from the back to boos and slowly makes his way down to the ring.

SP: This mountain of a man debuted at the last Meltdown and in my opinion, is the enforcer of The Syndicate.

AS: Enforcer? Screw Arn Anderson, if I’m going into a fight I would love to have this giant in my corner.

The bell rings and Mojo charges Levinator with punches and shots to his chest. Lev just places his hands on his hips and shakes his head as Mojo tries to clothesline him down. He grabs Mojo by the neck with both hands and tosses him into the corner. He backs up a few steps, then charges Mojo and nails a big boot. Mojo stumbles out of the corner and Lev catches him with a side slam and hooks a leg. One……….Two……! Mojo kicks out! Lev pulls him up and whips him into the ropes. He telegraphs a back body drop and Mojo springs off the ropes and gets down to nail a huge uppercut to Lev. The big man stumbles back and Mojo springs up.

SP: Mojo with a huge shot to Lev and has the big man reeling. You got to be wondering what Mojo has in mind t actually take the big man off his feet.

AS: I’m not sure, but he may need a forklift.

Mojo charges and looks for a clothesline. Lev teeters but don’t go down. Mojo looks for another and this time Lev catches him and lifts him up, but Mojo manages to get free and backs up a few steps before he charges and jumps up with a cross body attempt at Lev, who tries to catch him and nail a power slam, but both go over the top rope and to the arena floor. Mojo lands on the apron and Lev tumbles to the floor. Mojo rolls inside of the ring as Lev is rolling toward the guard rail. One…….Two………Three………..Four…………..Five……………Six……………The big man starts to move and uses the railing to pull himself up…………Seven…………Eight……………Nine……………Lev makes a dash for the ring, but don’t get in before the ten count!

SP: HOLY SHIT! TALK ABOUT AN UPSET!

AS: UPSET? I’D BE PISSED IF I WAS LEV!

TL: Ladies and gentlemen…….your winner via count out, MR. MOJO RISIN’!

Lev is pissed off as he rolls into the ring and goes after Mojo, who quickly gets out of the ring and backs up the entranceway, getting the hell out of dodge as Lev looks pissed off in the ring.

SP: Levinator went for a sneak attack, what seems to be the staple of the Sin City Syndicate these days and Mojo was wise to it.

AS: Wise? I think he just shit himself backing up the aisle.......

[Simon]

TL: Ladies and gentleman, the following contest is set for one fall………introducing first…….on his way to the ring……”The Guido” DJ Clay!

The lights go down, An italian flag is illuminated on the stage. On the Screen we see a Cadillac shield and the name Clay on it. The music begins with a bit of spoken word... "Starting off in the southwest side of town... We find our boy DJ clay Fighting his way out of yet another sticky situation." The spot hits DJ standing on the stage head down but bumping to the music Slowly the chant of DJ Clay fades in with the chant continuing for 20 seconds. His head is down the whole time his fist pumps in the air to the cheer. There is a loud cheer, His head raises with a Guido's smile. The lyrics begin to flow:

"Ever since i was young,
I been around guns,
I was born in the Hood,
Can't help where i'm from,
Heartbeat like a drum
In the Beat just for yall
and my blood off in each and every sound
I'll beat your stuff
If you wanna get tough
We a hundred mile deep
with the guns and the jags
Got the things that boom
even things that cut
'swhy we all where we at
And you all where you not..."

He walks down the ramp slowly shaking out his arms and Listening to his Manager Linn. He cracks his neck and keeps walking slowly.

Double laced till the day
I'm face down in my own
Let 'em bleed till they bleed
In a puddle of they own...

He begins his walk around the ring looking at the crowd as the song hits it's hook

"YOU AINT FROM ROUND HERE
YOU GET LET DOWN HERE
THIS IS THAT SOUND... *pop pop pop pop*
WE ALL FEAR"

He jumps up ont to the apron and Hops over the ropes as the hok repeats 3 times with him going to each corner telling the crowd he ain't goin nowhere...

SP: DJ Clay debuted last Meltdown with a win over Kevin Legacy, but he was involved briefly in what transpired after the match with Deflar Linos.

AS: Knowing Clay, he’s likely pissed off about that, too.

TL: And his opponent……..from Clarksville, Tennessee…….Lil’ Knoxville!

“Here Comes the Boom” plays as Knoxville walks out from the back to boos. He starts to make it down the entrance way when he spots former RoP star Adam Linn in the crowd, sitting next to a large man in a doo rag and another intimidating looking person. Linn says a few things to Knoxville, who gets jumped from behind by Clay, who nails some kicks to his legs to get him down, then some clubbing shots to his back.

SP: Adam Linn is in the crowd……I dunno why, but Clay took advantage of it!

AS: He’s a street fighter, he’s Italian! Knoxville seemed to forget about him and now he’s gonna fuhgeddaboudit when it comes to this match!

The crowd is going crazy as Clay grabs Knoxville and whips him into the ring post. Knoxville stumbles around the ring, but Clay gets in the ring and then nails a charging dropkick to Knoxville through the ropes that sends him against the guardrail. Clay gets up and climbs onto the apron. When Knoxville turns, he flies off with a flying body block that sends them both against the railing. Knoxville seems to be knocked into another world, but Clay gets up, holding his knee and grabs the camera, yelling at it. “You see this, Deflar, this is gonna be yo punk ass, bitch!”. He grabs a chair from the first row of fans and then sits Knoxville down on the empty time keeper’s chair. The fans cheer, seemingly knowing what’s coming next.

SP: Things aren’t looking good for Knoxville here and it’s obvious now that Clay is doing this to send a message to Deflar.

AS: I think he’s about to sign, seal and deliver it loud and clear.

Clay backs up a few steps, then charges and plasters Knoxville right across the head with a chair shot, then backs up and gives him another. Knoxville teeters like he’s going to fall off the chair, but Clay keeps nailing him over and over with no less than seven or so chair shots. Finally, Knoxville looks like he’s going to fall off of his chair, but Clay grabs him and pulls him into the ring. He lays him down and makes the referee cont to three as he pins him. One………Two……….Three! Clay points to the camera and screams “You’re next, Deflar!” as the crowd goes crazy.

SP: Damn, Knoxville has to be knocked into next week after all those chair shots……..was this even an official match? I don’t think the bell ever rang!

AS: Yeah, but look at this……Clay and Linn seem to be in cahoots here……..what in the hell is going on?

Clay gets on a turnbuckle and points at Linn and his crew with a smirk on his face before his music hits and the scene slowly fades to a commercial.




We go to a shot of Lucas Sensation leaning against a wall with a smirk on his face.

Lucas: You know, it’s funny. Who would have thought that winning would get you thrown in the doghouse? Ever since I beat Simon in his little challenge at the last supershow, I’ve found myself without opponents and really without a job. You know, I should be mad about it, but I’m not. Because Simon, this empire that you’ve made for yourself is gonna crumble down around you.

He shakes his head.

Lucas: You want to go after me? Fine. You want to go after Stu and Ireland’s Most Wanted? Fine. But you know, sooner or later you’re gonna dig yourself into too deep of a hole. Sooner or later, you’re gonna find yourself in over your head and you’ll get what you deserve. It may not be by my hands, but it will happen and when it does……well, I’m going to be right here laughing.

He snickers.

Lucas: But that’s still to come, Simon, why don’t we talk about what’s going to be. You see, I’ve made a few phone calls and I’ve pulled a few strings and in two weeks right here on Meltdown, I’m going to be able to get a measure of revenge. You see, you managed to hold on in that match at the last supershow because your boy, your bitch, Ace Andrews got involved and helped you out. Well, next week……..right in that Ring of Pride six sided ring, I’m going to get my hands on Ace because it’s going to be me and Ace one on one.

He shakes his head with a grin.

Lucas: And don’t worry, Ace, because your title won’t be on the line. This goes beyond that for me and come next Meltdown, I’m going to start my crusade through The Sin City Syndicate and one by one, you’ll all fall until finally the only one left is you, Simon. And when I get my hands on you………you don’t wanna know what will happen.




TL: The following contest is set for one fall! Introducing first…….on his way to the ring, this is Finnious T. Boggs!

“Nobody” plays as Finnious walks out from the back to a good reaction. He slaps some hands on his way to the ring and then slides in as his music fades.

SP: Finnious is coming off of a heartbreaking loss on the last Meltdown where he missed out on the chance to challenge for the Texas Television title. This should be a chance for him to get back in the race.

AS: Yeah, but he’s got one hell of a challenge in front of him.

TL: And his opponent……from Chicago, Illinois……..Tommy Hero!

The fans boo as “The Final Episode” starts and Hero walks out from the back, shaking his arm with a smirk. He shakes his head at the fans and walks down to the ring, jumping up onto the ring steps as he gazes at Finnious and shakes his head.

SP: The cocky Tommy Hero finds himself against Finnious tonight. We saw a lot from Hero in his debut on the last Meltdown, but can he keep the momentum that he has going through tonight?

AS: Can he? Look at the man! You know he will!

The bell rings and Hero and Finnious circle one another before locking up. Hero shoves Finn down to his knees and nails some clubbing shots to his back. Finn gets up, holding his lower back and Hero nails some stiff kicks to his thighs. He then grabs Finn and knees him in the gut several times, doubling him over. With Finnious doubled up, Hero springs off the ropes and nails a swinging neck breaker to Finn and makes a quick cover. One…….! He pulls Finn up and whips him into the ropes. Finnious goes for a springboard back elbow, but Hero catches him in midair it seems and plants him into the mat with a belly to back suplex that seems to fold Finn up. He covers him again. One…….Two!

SP: Tommy Hero is trying to end this early and he’s got himself a near fall here. Finnious has to battle back here or this could be over before it even starts!

AS: I think Finnious may have underestimated Hero here and he’s paying the price for it.

Her pulls Finn to his feet and grabs him by the wrist. He goes for a shortarm clothesline, but Finn ducks it to some cheers from the fans and a “Let’s go Finn” chant before he gets behind Hero and goes for a German suplex it seems. Hero gets out of his grip easily though and steps forward. He turns and Finn leaps into the air and kicks Hero square in the forehead. Hero stumbles against the ropes and Finn charges, looking for a leg lariat, but Hero catches him and goes for a power bomb. At the last possible moment, Finn counters it into a hurricanrana! Hero gets up and Finnious charges, nailing a leaping cross body block on him that sends them both against the ropes and to the arena floor!

SP: Ouch! Finnious just possibly sacrificed himself to keep the advantage over Hero. He better hope that it don’t cost him.

AS: I’d think that things on the floor would be Hero’s turf. I mean, Finn is more of a fast paced high flier, but Hero is more grounded. It should benefit him.

Finn gets up first and gets onto the apron. He waits for Hero to get up before he leaps up, drops his legs on top of the top rope and flips back with a moonsault onto Hero. The crowd cheers for this and starts an “RoP” chant as Finn gets up slowly and kicks at Hero several times before he rolls him into the ring. Finn climbs up to the apron and then climbs up a turnbuckle as he waits for Hero to get up. When he does, Finn jumps off with a cross body attempt but Hero leaps up and dropkicks him in midair. The collision sends both into the mat hard, but Hero is the first one to move as the fans clap, trying to will Finn up.

SP: What a collision with that dropkick and you got to wonder what kinda damage it gave to Hero as well as Finn.

AS: Hero’s moving so he appears to be fine. If he goes for a cover here, I think he may have Finnious.

As if on cue, Hero gets an arm across Finn’s chest and the ref counts. One……..Two……! Finnious kicks out! Hero gets on his knees and barks at the ref before pulling Finn up. He chops him across the chest several times and whips him into the ropes and nails a backfist flush with Finnious’ jaw. Finn goes down and when he gets up, holding his jaw, Tommy reels him in and goes for his Final Episode suplex into a DDT but Finn seems to block it and refuses to get dropped with the DDT, instead managing to get free and wrap himself around Hero to take him down with a crucifix pin. One……..Two…..! Hero just manages to kick out. Hero gets up and when he does, Finn jumps up and nails The Belfast Express! Hero bounces off the mat and Finn rolls him over to get the pin. One……….Two……………Three!

TL: Here is your winner, FINNIOUS T. BOGGS!

SP: What a win for Finn! This brings his RoP record to 2-1 and he’s got some momentum back.

AS: No doubt about it, but can he keep it is the question………..




We go backstage to where Simon Sensation is sitting down at a table, writing a few things down on a piece of paper when all of a sudden, he hears a knock. He looks up and seems a little confused for a second, then smirks a little.

Simon: Dog, what brings you here?

The head talent executive known as Big Dog has indeed made his presence felt once again, the familiar unshaven stubble, greasy hair, a bandanna on his head and worn out Ring of Pride hoodie with a pair of ripped jeans and dirty boots is hardly the look for an executive of any kind but for a man like Big Dog it fits like a glove, he staggers on in carrying that familiar paperbag that hides his liquid advisor if you will, the deep voice speaks out with some slur and the trademarked toothpick flicks around all the while.

Dog:”Double S I got you some serious sit down business, lately the whole company has been on their goddamn toes because you and your boys running wild on everyone, however I am here to let you know that this dog better not be a target because, I’m a regular pitbull and before I go down I’ll rip those punks to shreds as well!”

He sways back and forth a bit grabbing hold of the desk for support and eyes at Simon.
Dog:”I’ve been with you in this thing since it got off the ground, I stepped up when that snot nosed, pissant who had about as much hair upstairs and downstairs and half the braincells compared to his supposed testicular fortitude got his ass handed to him by Deas, I took this job as the second in command with pride like we in RoP and so far I have been doing a goddamn fantastic job, better than he ever could!”

Simon titls his head a bit.

Simon:”Who do you mean Dog, spit it out man and get on with it?”

Dog frowns, takes another sip and slurs out a name.

Dog:”Peep! I owned that punk!”

Simon chuckles.

Simon:”You mean Peek? Kris Peek?”

Dog slams his palm down on the desk.

Dog:”Yeah them too! I buried those two cocksuckers! six feet under motherfuckers you get where I’m going chico?”

The boss seems to have bit of a trouble catching the subtle hints so he just spells it out.

Simon:”Dog, I swear to god, I have no goddamn idea what the hell are you on about..”

This angers the talent excecutive even more, he grabs few mighty swiqs of from his paperbag before roaring out.

Dog:”I am no Fredo Simon! You ain’t taking me fishing mang! Get it? If those boys of yours even look at me wrong I’m going Gangsta on the pack of you and this won’t be no scripted Hollywood style pretty boy bout, I am talking about a good ol’ street fight, scrapping till they drop and won’t get back up! I’d go all Don Johnson, Chuck Norris, Steven Seagal and goddamn Jackie Chan on those fuckers!”

Simon sees the danger and jumps back right before Dog “Drunken masters” his foot trough the desk and slams it down like it was cardboard.

Dog:”You understand me boss?!”

Sensation shakes his head and looks at Dog then the paper then back at Dog.

Simon:”You my friend should really consider those AA meetings, even for a few times could calm you down a bit..”

Dog:”Twele Steppers are pussies anyway! I went to one of those meetings mang and they had the worst bar ever! and no tunes at all fuck those whiners!”

Simon:”Well alright then, I don’t think you have a damn thing to worry Dog, just keep doing your job and know who your friends are and you will be alright, anything else?”

Dog shakes his head furiously.

Dog:”Nah man, I’m OK, what about you?”

Sensation looks at what used to be his desk and shrugs.

Simon:”Well I could use a new desk, but guess I can’t complain..”

Dog’s eyes flash.

Dog:”Hey I know this great second and furniture store run by this one wop bastard up in New York, I bet he could hook you up with a deal...”

Simon:”Well I appreciate it but I do still have work to do, so Dog, if you would? I think I could use an extra pair of eyes out there during the show just in case, you think you could...”

He gestures towards the door and Dog grabs his toothpick flicking it at the remains of the desk.

Dog:”Woof Woof! You know it boss!”

He staggers on away when Simon sits down on his chair kicking at the trashed desk...



Somewhere in the back, Deflar is seen talking with three men. Two of the men stand over Deflar, one is a Caucasian with just a full goatee, the other is a black skinned guy with cornrows and a full beard. Between the two of them is a man who looks like a full foot shorter than the both of them. He has black hair and is neatly trimmed, with a slight tan.

Deflar: Simon will be on the look out for me, can I trust you to do this one task. Ignore the weaker man, go after the stronger peon. Understand all this, Alimus. I'm counting on you, the tactician, to bring a victory to the "family". Make sure that the rest of the federation is aware of your attack. The Lady awaits.

Alimus: Of course, Deflar, but why are we allied with that wench, she's a liability to our plans.

Smaller Man: Alimus, who gives a shit what she thinks. She's nothing more than an asset until the time comes to weed her out.

Deflar: Rich, be warned, your fates are in her hands. She watches this as she works here. Still your tongue if you want to be able to find work.

Rich: Fine, I'll keep my mouth shut about that.

Black Man: What about the Children of the Night, or the Revolution?

Deflar: Vince, they're nothing but small fries, none of our concern. Deal with this Sin City Syndicate, and this stable that seems to be growing with DJ Clay, if those rumors are true. Nevertheless, the Dragons will prove their superiority, or go down in honorable combat. GO, let the task be done.

The three men salute Deflar and run off at an equal speed into the distance as Deflar exits the building.

Price: Oh no, if what we just saw is true, Ace is in trouble tonight, again!

Strong: Ace can handle himself, let's get ready for Kevin versus Dillon. TRACI, START IT UP!




Loveheart: The following contest is a non-title match scheduled for one fall, introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, weighing one hundred thirty five pounds, Kevin Legacy!

"In the Air Tonight" by Nonpoint begins to play on the PA as Kevin walks out, head covered in a bandage, grabbing his arms, walking slowly. Shortly after, he's escorted by security and is hurried to the ring. They place him in the ring as he walks over to the turnbuckle, then looks towards the curtains.

Loveheart: And his opponent, from Denver, Colorado, weighing two hundred seventy pounds, he is the Southwestern Heavyweight Championship, "Deadly" Dillon D'Angelo!

As "U Can't Touch This" by M.C. Hammer blares over the PA, Dillon walks out with the Southwestern Championship in hand. He stops and stares at the fans, who erupt in a roar of jeers as security walks over to him and escorts him down to the ring.

Price: Simon is making sure that this match has security stationed at ring side in case Deflar wants to cause trouble. He did threaten to go after the champions earlier.

Strong: They shouldn't mess with Simon. It's like playing with fire. Eventually, you'll get burned.

Price: While we don't see eye to eye, Strong, I do agree with that statement.

Strong: YOU AGREE WITH ME! Did Hell freeze over?

Price: Only in Hell, Michigan. The referee for this match is Richard Dent, and he looks at both men, then calls for the bell.

Dillon runs at Kevin, but Kevin, despite his injuries, ducks under Dillon's clothesline and connects with a drop kick. Kevin walks over to Dillon and then runs towards the ropes and attempts a clothesline, but Dillon doesn't fall, only flinches. Kevin kicks Dillon in the sternum then connects with a DDT. He runs over to the nearest turnbuckle and jumps onto it, then jumps off with a guillotine leg drop, landing perfectly on Dillon's throat, making the champ grab his throat, coughing.

Price: Kevin is showing that even injured, he can still wrestle.

Strong: Hey, Stu, lemme know who wins, I'm gonna take a nap.

Arturius removes his headset and places his head on his arms as Kevin picks the champion up and measures him, then performs a super kick at Dillon's neck, connecting on the chin. Dillon falls over like a stiffened board, landing hard on the mat. Kevin jumps onto the turnbuckle again and jumps off, performing a diving head butt. Kevin grabs his head in pain as the bandage loosens. He slowly rises to his feet and removes the bandage completely, exposing his still healing forehead. He picks the weakening champion up and Irish whips him into the turnbuckle. He attempts to pick up the champion, but struggles to pick him up.

Price: Due to the weight difference, Kevin's struggles to pick up Dillon, but in vain.

Dillon grabs Kevin and hits him in the back with a double axe handed smash. Kevin falls to one knee as Dillon begins to collect himself. He grabs Kevin's head and hits him with a rising knee strike, right into the forehead. Kevin falls to the ground hard, grabbing his forehead. Dillon smirks and walks over towards Kevin. He picks Kevin up and hits him with repeated knee strikes to the forehead, then hits him hard with a hard right knee, causing some of the stitching to come undone, causing Kevin to begin to bleed.

Price: NO! Dillon, that wasn't right! Don't make the man bleed, damn it!

Arturius shakes after hearing Stu-E shout at the top of his lungs. He grabs his headset again, still groggy from the "nap" he had.

Strong: What did I miss?

Price: Nothing.

Dillon walks over to Kevin after taking a moment to rest and grabs Kevin and grabs his head and performs a bulldog. The crowd begins to jeer as Dillon continues his focused assault on Kevin's head. After punching Kevin's head, covering his own hand in blood, Dillon grabs Kevin's head and hits with Dillon's Deadly Drop. He walks over to the turnbuckle and performs D'Angelo's Devastating Descent, landing hard onto Kevin's sternum. He immediately goes for the pin as Dent slides into position.

Dent: 1......2......3!

"U Can't Touch This" by M.C. Hammer begins to play as Dent raises Dillon's hand.

Loveheart: Here's your winner, "Deadly" Dillon D'Angelo!



Suddenly, Dillon's theme gets suddenly cut as Deflar appears at the curtain. Security sharply turns towards him and begins to give chase, all but three of them. Dillon looks at the three who remain as they remove their helmets, revealing themselves to be Alimus, Rich, and Vince. They all slide into the ring. Alimus grabs Kevin and places him in the turnbuckle as the three men form a triangle around Dillon.

All three men: I see, you're a king who's been dethroned! Cast out in a world you've never known! Stand down, place your weapon by your side! It's our war, in the end, we'll surely lose, but that's alright!

Price & Strong: What the hell?

Alimus: Get him!

Rich charges Dillon, who counters and sends Rich into the rope. Vince back attacks Dillon and Rich drop kicks his knee, making Dillon go to one knee as Vince continues to assault him on the back. Alimus slides out of the ring and grabs the Southwestern Championship. He points to Rich and Vince, who grab Dillon and hold him in place. Alimus runs and strikes Dillon with the title as both men release him. Alimus places the title on Dillon's barely moving body and leaves the ring and grabs three microphones. He slides back into the ring and hands a microphone to both Rich and Vince, raising his own microphone to his face.

Alimus: Such is the fate of evil, right! Dillon, we've nothing against you personally, but you do represent the company as it's top champion. However, we don't consider you the stronger champion. Alas, you're just a waste of talent who happened to sleep with someone in the company to win that belt from the dethroned King, whom the part of the song we sang for. Of course, that's Alexander McIntyre.

Rich: Ya see, Dillork, we don't give a shit who the champions are, our leader, Deflar will remove that title from ya, or anyone who holds that belt, while Tank and I will go after your precious tag champions, the Revolution. We're here, and we're making ourselves known, and this is just the tip of this big iceberg.

Tank: Understand this, Dillon. You're the champ. NO, you're a CHUMP! You're not a champ, just a lucky man who won a favor of someone backstage, as Alimus said. We're ain't here to make a statement. No, we're here to make an imPACT, and I believe we've done that.

Alimus: To everyone in the Ring of Pride, face or heel, we don't care where you stand, you were given until this Meltdown to decide if you were with us or against us, and none of you even cared to pay attention. To that end, that makes you all enemies, and The Red Dragons will defeat all enemies, STARTING with the Sin City Syndicate. Ace, Terry, I hope you can sleep with one eye open, because we'll strike you down at any moment. However, since we're not without honor, you'll face our wrath in the following weeks.

"Welcome to the Family" by Avenged Sevenfold begins to play as the Red Dragons drop their microphones and leave the ring as the crowd erupts in a roar of cheers and jeers, not sure what to do as the three men walk behind the curtain.

Price: So they now have a name. They did make a statement tonight.

Strong: Heel or face, you're a target! What are they planning!

Price: No idea, we'll take a breather as the paramedics clear the ring, as well as clean it to prepare for the next match. The Six Man Tag Team match between the Children of the Night and Ace Andrews versus the Revolution and Eric Hancock.

Strong: I want Ace to win, pure and simple!

Price: Ace certainly has made his presence known since joining the federation long ago. Since his feud with Shawna, he has become one of the most talked about members of the Ring of Pride. After the assault against rival Anilya, he joined the stable with Simon Sensation and Terry Marvin, becoming the Sin City Syndicate.

Strong: If he keeps it up, he'll be after Dillon for the Southwestern Championship.

Price: His tag team partners are called the Children of the Night. Since joining, they've mysteriously made their way through the ranks as one of the best tag teams in the Ring of Pride, but it didn't come without controversy.

Strong: No kidding, over a month ago, they had to deal with those idiots, the Superfans, who were unwilling to face a female. They weren't even that much different than her size wise!

Price: True. For their opponents, they're facing the Revolution, who quickly rose through the ranks and obtained the Ring of Pride Tag Team titles, making them highly talked about.

Strong: Young men, strong wills, it'll be interesting.

Price: Lastly, there's their partner, Eric Hancock. Since joining the Ring of Pride, he has proven that a mixed martial artist can be in a wrestling ring. He has faced the likes of Dominic Zubrowka, Alexander McIntyre, and others who have seen the Southwestern Championship up close and personal.

Strong: He's just an arrogant man who should return to that oddly shaped cage.

Price: It seems the ring has been cleared up, let's turn it over to Traci

[Simon]

TL: The following contest is set for one fall and it is a six man tag team match. Introducing first, on their way to the ring……they are Paige and Shadow, The Children of the Night!

"Evolution" comes across the P.A. system and Shadow and Paige walk out to the stage and stop. They look over the crowd and start to head down to the ring. They climb into the ring and walk over to their corner. Paige drops her title in the corner, as Shadow slumps down into the corner, while they await their opponents.

SP: These two are coming off a heartbreaking loss on the last Meltdown where they missed out on the chance to become the first ever RoP Tag Team Championships.

AS: That’s sad, maybe you can cry me a river, Stu. But I’m sure it’s not effecting these two. If anything, they’re likely looking at this match as a shot at revenge.

TL: And their tag team partner from Las Vegas, NV……….he is the RoP Texas Television Champion, “The Billionaire Brawler” Ace Andrews!

The entire arena goes to black, and the titan tron flickers into life with some static. As the static starts getting clear it starts to show four Ace cards between flashes of static. After a few seconds the static leaves to have just an image of the Four Ace cards. After a few seconds the Ace cards turn sideways and fly towards the camera and the text 'YOU'RE GONNA GET ACED!' flashes on and off, going faster and faster until finally some pyro explodes and the PA System kicks in.

Rollin' the dice
Never thinkin' twice

A single golden light illuminates the stage, and from the back out struts Ace Andrews! Ace is dressed in a simple pair of long black tights, with two Ace cards on ace leg, and ‘THE ACE’ written on the trunk in big white letters. He is also wearing a singlet, with a picture of his face on the front, and the back has the words YOU HAVE JUST BEEN ACED! He pauses at the top of the ramp, holding both arms out wide, and then turning his back to the crowd before turning to face them again. He starts to stroll down the ramp, looking out at one side of the crowd, then the other as he paces leisurely to the ring.

SP: This man narrowly escaped a beat down last Meltdown at the hands of Ireland’s Most Wanted…….but thanks to the addition of the massive Levinator into the Sin City Syndicate, him and Terry Marvin got saved and managed to pull off one hell of an upset.

AS: It’s not an upset! The man is a champion! He’s one of the best that RoP has to offer, what’s it going to take to make you see that, Stu?

TL: And their opponents, introducing first………he is the number one contender to the RoP Texas Television Championship, the “H-Bomb” Eric Hancock!

“Invincible” hits over the arena PA and Eric Hancock steps out into the arena followed shortly by his coach, Hank Fitzgerald, and a small team of trainers. Hancock wears a hoodie pulled over his head as he slowly paces to the ring, loosening up along the way. At ringside, Hancock receives a few final words of encouragement and advice from his trainers and coach and removes his sweatshirt, handing it off to the trainers before they head to the back. After his final prep, Hancock slides into the ring and bounces the ropes, getting a feeling for his environment. Eric Hancock settles into his corner and awaits the start of the match.

SP: This man won a match on the last Meltdown to get a shot at Ace’s title and that brings us to this trios match tonight.

AS: Indeed, but when it comes to the title……Eric got luck against Xtreme Steve and Finnious Boggs. He’s never going to be able to even stand a chance against Ace. Hell, I’d view his being on my team here in a match like this as a liability.

TL: And his tag team partners…….they are the RoP Tag Team Champions…….Jared James and Johnny Holliday…..The Revolution!

“Sink Into Me” plays as Jared and Johnny emerge from the back to cheers with their titles around their waists. They remain at the top of the entrance aisle for several moments before they take off down to the ring and slide in, joining Eric as they eye Paige and Shadow when they reach down to take their titles off.

SP: These two made history two weeks ago here on Meltdown and tonight, it’s all about playing defense and trying to prove why Paige and Shadow don’t deserve another shot at their titles.

AS: Don’t say that, The Children of the Night are really the most deserving team in the division to get a shot at those titles. Hell, Jared and Johnny got lucky and I think the world knows it, Stu.

The bell rings and Eric decides to start the match for his team while Paige starts the bout for hers. They lock up in the middle of the ring and Eric muscles her against the ropes and nails some chops to her chest before he sends her into a corner and charges in with a splash before he grabs her and nails a belly to belly suplex on her. He gets up and seems to be begging her to get to her feet as well. She does and he goes for a German suplex, but Paige kicks up her leg between Eric’s legs where the ref don’t see it. Eric stumbles back and Paige grabs him by the head and nails shot after shot to him. He stumbles back and she charges, nailing a forearm smash to him. Eric gets down and gets up, only for her to lift him up and bring him down across her knee with an atomic drop. Ace has tagged himself in to boos and gets in the ring with a smirk on his face.

SP: Here’s something of a preview for the title match that we know is going to happen between these two.

AS: That match will be happening at Out for Blood: Momentary Lapse of Reason but tonight is Meltdown and it’s not about just these two. This is a trios match and Paige has really given her team the edge over Eric.

Ace comes in and nails some shots to Eric before he whips him into the ropes. Eric hangs onto the top rope to stop himself. Ace sees this and charges but Eric drops down his shoulder and propels Ace onto the apron. Eric stumbles into the middle of the ring and turns around, only for Ace to climb up to the top rope and then come off with a missile dropkick that sends Eric tumbling backward and over on the mat. Johnny reaches down and tags in. Ace gets up and Johnny nails a running leg lariat on him. Ace goes down and gets up and Johnny nails a Japanese arm drag. Ace gets up again with a dazed look on his face and Johnny nails a dropkick on him. Ace stumbles back and goes through the ropes to the arena floor. He looks up as Johnny springs off the ropes looking for a tope suicida on him, but Shadow cuts him off as he gets into the ring and charges, taking Johnny down with a nasty spear.

SP: Come on now, Shadow isn’t even the legal man! This is BS!

AS: No, it’s brilliant. He just prevented Ace from being put in a situation where he could have possibly lost the match for his team.

Shadow picks up Johnny as Jared tries coming into the ring, which causes the ref to stop him and draws the ire of the fans. Shadow front suplexes Johnny across the top rope and then nails a running knee lift on him. Johnny tumbles into the ring as Ace gets in. Shadow yells at Ace to pin him, but Ace tags into Shadow, drawing some frustration from Shadow. Shadow gets in and pulls Johnny up. He goes for a bulldog on him, but Johnny shoves him off and to the mat. He leaps into his corner, tagging in Jared to cheers, but the ref again holds Jared back, this time saying he didn’t see the tag as Shadow gets up and stomps away at Johnny.

SP: What in the hell, he didn’t see the tag? How could he not, the place came unglued when it happened, it was a loud slap, he should have heard it!

AS: Who knows, Ace has all this money in the bank, maybe he paid the official off!

Shadow pulls Johnny up and throws him shoulder first into the corner post and then rolls him up. One…….Two….! Johnny kicks out! Shadow pulls him and lifts him up with a vertical suplex from the looks of it, then he brings him down with a brain buster. Johnny is laid out on the mat as Shadow gets down and makes another cover. One………Two……….! Johnny gets a shoulder up at the last second. Shadow seems a little frustrated and tags in Paige. She climbs up to the top rope and goes for a moonsault on Johnny, who rolls out of the way. He makes his way toward his corner again, but this time Paige manages to grab his foot just before he can get the tag. Johnny gets up to his one leg and then lifts it up with a side kick to Paige’s skull. She falls down like a tree that just got chopped down as Johnny lunges into his corner and makes the tag to Jared. The crowd erupts in cheers as Jared climbs up to the top turnbuckle and when Paige gets up and turns to face him, comes off with a flying cross body. Paige is slow to get up and Jared nails a deep arm drag on her and when she goes to get, takes her back down with a head scissors takedown!

SP: Jared James is a house of fire and the crowd is absolutely deafening!

AS: I’m just deaf after hearing them scream like this!

The crowd is firmly behind Jared as Paige rolls out of the ring. Jared charges the ropes and somersaults over them onto her to take her down as she goes to get up. Jared gets to “RoP” chants from the crowd. He pulls Paige up as well, but both are caught off guard when Ace climbs up to the top turnbuckle and leaps onto both of them. They catch him, Jared moreso than Paige and turn, only to have Johnny springing off the ropes in the ring, launching himself off of a crouched Eric Hancock’s back and onto the top rope before he leaps out onto all three people on the arena floor! This knocks them all down like dominoes and the crowd is going crazy starting a “holy shit” chant. Eric gets up and looks out at the chaos on the arena floor and turns around, only to get taken down with a spiking DDT from Shadow, which really deflates the cheers of the crowd. Shadow gets down and covers Eric and yells at the referee to count it. One…………Two…! Eric gets a shoulder up!

SP: Is Eric or Shadow even the legal men? I don’t think they are! I believe that Paige and Jared are.

AS: It don’t matter, they’re both on the outside in that scrap pile of bodies! I think the referee did the smart thing here by counting for Shadow’s cover.

Shadow pulls Eric up and goes for a vertical suplex, but Eric floats behind him and goes for a German suplex. Shadow rushes into the ropes, causing Eric to go throat first across the top rope as Shadow ducks. Eric stumbles back and when he turns toward Shadow, he gets dropkicked. Shadow gets up, but Ace is on the apron and slingshots himself over the top rope with a body splash on Eric before he goes for a cover and hooks his leg. Shadow pulls Ace up and pokes him in the chest repeatedly. The two argue to the cheers of the fans before the turn into a springboard double missile dropkick from Jared, who raises his arm up for the crowd to cheers. He turns and walks right into a scoop slam from Paige, followed by a knee drop across the face. Jared rolls to the side of the ring and Paige gets up just as Johnny leaps over the top rope from the apron, lands on the second rope and moonsaults over onto Paige! He gets up, but gets turned inside out with a clothesline from Shadow, doing a three sixty in mid air. Shadow gets up, but turns right into an overhead release belly to belly suplex from Eric Hancock! Eric gets up and gets turned around and nailed with a Triple 7s from Ace! While that happens, Jared crawls over and gets his arm across Paige’s chest. One……..Two……….NO! Ace breaks it up!

SP: Ace with a save for his team and that was a closer one than I’m sure he would have liked…………..

AS: Look at this, Ace is tagging himself in by pulling Paige to his corner, that’s smart to keep the fresher man legal.

Ace gets into the ring and grabs Jared when he goes to get up and snap suplexes him over. Ace gets up and Johnny flies off the top rope, but Ace catches him with a power slam. He gets up and Jared is making it to his feet. He grabs him looking for Triple 7s, but Jared fires him into the ropes. Shadow tags himself in and Ace looks at him oddly as he gets into the ring. Shadow rushes at Jared, but he gets a drop toe hold for his trouble. Shadow gets up and Jared leaps up with a kick to the side of Shadow’s head that sends him into the ropes. He goes to catch him with the I-35 Drive, but Shadow rolls out of it and goes for a clothesline on James, who ducks and spins Shadow around and plants him with The Dagger! He gets down for the cover! One………Two……….NO! Paige breaks it up!

SP: Paige just saved her team now and Jared is on a roll!

AS: Jared is cruising, I won’t deny that but things look to be breaking down again.

Johnny comes in and clotheslines Paige over the top rope to the arena floor and goes with her. Jared gets up and Eric tags himself in. He comes into the ring and picks up Shadow. He whips him into the ropes and catches him with The Detonator, but Ace has tagged himself in! He gets into the ring and when Eric turns around, he catches him with The Flop and gets down to pin him! One………Two……….Three!

TL: Here are your winners, THE CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT AND ACE ANDREWS!

SP: He did it, Ace won it for his team! He tagged in when Shadow hit the ropes and I don’t think Eric saw it!

AS: I don’t think he saw that Flop coming, either! What another big win for our Texas Television Champ and well…..this thing between The Children of the Night and Revolution hasn’t been settled one bit!





TL: The following contest is a Tag Team match, scheduled for ONE FALL! Introducing team number one, from Ireland……Alexander McIntyre and Tommy McFarlane……Ireland’s Most Wanted!

"Armageddon" blasts out of the system as the crowd descends into a chorus of jeers. Alexander walks out from behind the curtain, quickly joined by Tommy. The two make their way slowly down the ramp, largely ignoring the crowd, but Tommy stops briefly to mouth off a fan who made a rather obscene comment. The two walk up the ringsteps, Alexander first and step through the ropes on either side of the turnbuckle. They look at the turnbuckles for a second, and decide against moving towards them and instead head into their corner as the music fades out.

TL: And their opponents, introducing first, hailing from Hollywood, California. He is ‘The Ballistic One’ Bryan Deas!

‘Why I Sing The Blues’ by Reckless Fortune hits, and Deas starts to make his way down the ramp ignoring the fans and focusing on the ring where McIntyre and MacFarlane are standing, ready and waiting for Deas to enter. Deas stops at the end of the ramp, looking from one to the other, as his music slowly cuts out, and he turns back to face the stage.

TL: And his partner, hailing from Klev, Ukraine. He is “Dr Ironfist” Vitali Schneider!

“Imbecile Anthem” by ASP hits the PA and as the verse kicks in, Vitali "Dr. Ironfist" Schneider walks out from behind the curtain, raising his arms up, before linking arms with the two beautiful nurses who accompany him to the ring. He makes his way down the ramp, stopping at the end where Deas is waiting. The two share a quick pose with the nurses, and then Ironfist removes his coat and hands it to a nurse, and sends them backstage. He and Deas look at each other, nod, and then race the ring!

SP-“And here we go! No time is being wasted here!”

As Deas and Ironfist slide into the ring, they’re greeted by some hard stomps from Irelands Most Wanted. Both men get up, and soon enough we have a full on brawl between all four, with McIntyre attacking Deas, and MacFarlane attacking Ironfist. The two brawls separate, and Deas starts to get the upper hand on McIntyre, slamming his elbow into McIntyre’s face, backing him upto the ropes, and clotheslining him out! On the opposite side of the ring, MacFarlane blocks an Ironfist punch, and counters with a European Uppercut. MacFarlane quickly lifts Ironfist up, and Atomic Drops him, forcing Ironfist to clutch his crotch and start to hobble back to the ropes, where MacFarlane clotheslines him over the top. Tommy pauses to yell some obscenities down at Ironfist, and Deas takes the advantage, rolling him up into a schoolboy as the referee slides into position. ONE….TWO…NO! MacFarlane kicks out and the two scramble back to their feet quickly, where MacFarlane goes for a clothesline, but Deas catches the arm, swings his legs around, and crucifixes Tommy. ONE…TWO…NO! Back to their feet, and Deas wastes no time, wrapping Tommy quickly into a small package. ONE…TWO.NO! Back to their feet, Deas ducks under another clothesline, and hooks Tommy’s arms for a backslide, but McIntyre grabs Tommy’s leg, and Deas just hits the mat alone instead. Deas hops up, turns around and is greeted with a Double Clothesline from IMW!

SP-“Deas went to the well one too many times, and it finally caught up with him there.”

AS-“Call it like it is Stu. Deas was just outsmarted by The One True King.”

McIntyre and MacFarlane confer for a moment, and then MacFarlane lifts Deas up, setting him up for a spinebuster. McIntyre bounces off the ropes, looking for the neckbreaker, but Ironfist grabs his leg and yanks him out of the ring, as Deas elbows MacFarlane twice, then drops him with a DDT! The referee finally manages to get order restored, sending Ironfist and McIntyre to their corners, and Deas takes advantage, reaching over and tagging in the good doctor. Dr Ironfist wasting little time slamming the now standing MacFarlane with some hard punches, backing him into the corner. Ironfist backs up raising a single hand skywards and then turns and charges the corner, but MacFarlane gets his boots up and into Ironfist’s face. MacFarlane then grabs Ironfist’s neck, and yanks it down with a neckbreaker! MacFarlne tags in McIntyre, and they hook Ironfist up, and lift him up high for a Double Suplex. They leave Ironfist hanging in the air momentarily before dropping back and dropping him down hard! MacFarlane heads to the corner, and McIntyre goes for the pin. ONE…TW-NO! Ironfist kicks out fairly enthusiastically and McIntyre gets up, bounces off the ropes, hits the sitting Ironfist with a flipping neckbreaker. McIntyre gets up, pushes Ironfist back to the mat with his foot, and holds him there, before leaping and dropping a knee on his neck! McIntyre slowly stands back up, and then drops another knee on Ironfist’s neck, and follows up with a chinlock, keeping his knee buried right behind the Doctor’s neck.

McIntyre keeps yanking back on Ironfist’s neck, until Deas finally races in and boots him hard forcing him to break the hold. The ref gets between Deas and McIntyre, who simply smirks and flips off Deas, sending him into a rage! Deas tries to get past the ref, but the ref doesn’t budge, and McIntyre takes advantage, signaling MacFarlane in and behind the ref’s back, IMW lifts Ironfist up and connect with a neckbreaker/spinebuster combo! Deas finally steps back out onto the apron, and McIntyre rolls back to his corner, clapping his hands to signify a tag, and when the ref turns around he sees MacFarlane covering Ironfist. ONE….TWO…TH-NO! MacFarlane stands up slowly, running his foot across Ironfist’s face as he argues with the ref. MacFarlane slowly starts to drag Ironfist to his feet, and then whips him across the ring, to the corner where McIntyre is. MacFarlane starts arguing with the ref again, grabbing his shirt slightly, and distracting him from seeing Alexander choke Ironfist with the tag rope! Ironfist starts hamming it up gasping and clutching at the air causing Deas to try and get in the ring. The ref stops him again, and MacFarlane takes advantage, racing over and baseball sliding out of the ring, before grabbing Ironfist’s legs and yanking him down. McIntyre hops off the apron, and grabs one of Ironfist’s legs and the pair pull Ironfist closer to the pole. Ironfist seems to realize what’s about to happen and starts clutching at the mat, and kicking trying to get out. But IMW are too strong and with a sudden yank bring Ironfist crotch first into the pole!

AS-“Make a Wish Doctor!”

SP-“And the worst part is, the referee saw nothing because Deas was too busy trying to get over to them.”

AS-“Hey now, just because Deas is too stupid to see he’s being manipulated, doesn’t mean its IMW’s fault. Deas should be smarter then that by now.”

Deas points at the ref’s eyes and then behind him, screaming out ‘ARE YOU BLIND???’ but finally just throws his arms up in exasperation and steps out onto the apron. The referee turns around, in time to see MacFarlane lift Ironfist up for a fallaway slam. MacFarlane struts the ring posing, but this is his downfall, as Deas hops off the apron, crawls around and while MacFarlane is looking out at the crowd taunting, Deas reaches in and yanks his ankle out from under him! MacFarlane collapses back, with Ironfist on top of him and the ref slides into position ONE…TW-NO! Both men start to stagger up, as Deas hops back to his corner practically begging for a tag. Ironfist starts to stagger towards him, but as he does, behind him Tommy bounces off the ropes, and goes for the bicycle kick, but Ironfist collapses at the last moment, and MacFarlane crotches himself on the top rope! Ironfist reaches out a hand from his collapsed position, and Deas stretches out as far as he can and just manages to tag in! Deas wastes little time, taking advantage of Tommy’s position by yanking up and down on the top rope causing MacFarlane a lot more pain!

SP-“And Deas is giving MacFarlane a taste of his own medicine here!”

AS-“Come on ref, break it up! MacFarlane’s on the ropes!”

SP-“Literally!”

Deas finally stops shaking Tommy, slipping into the ring, racing over and elbowing McIntyre off the apron. Deas wastes some time screaming out at Alexander, and from behind him Tommy manages to pull himself off the ropes, and squashes him into the corner. MacFarlane stands there for a moment, allowing McIntyre to get up, and tag in. Tommy backs up, holding Deas in a Full Nelson, while McIntyre climbs to the top rope. McIntyre lines Deas up and leaps for a Clothesline, but Deas drops out of the way, and McIntyre hits MacFarlane! McIntyre looks down in shock at what he’s done, but quickly remembers what’s going on, and turns around and Deas goozles him. Deas smirks straight at him, and signals for the Simply Ballistic, but McIntyre chops down at his arm weakening his grip, then leaps up and wraps his legs around Deas’ head holding him into a standing triangle choke! Deas stays standing, though weakening and drops to one knee, as McIntyre pulls back on the arm even more and squeezes his legs a little tighter. McIntyre’s head drops backwards…just in time to see “The Real Show” Terry Marvin stroll out from backstage.

SP-“Oh now, come on. What is he doing out here?”

AS-“Scouting his future opponent of course. Why do you always think the worst of people Stu?”

McIntyre releases his hold, and scrambles to his feet, yelling out at Marvin, who simply stands near the entrance waving at McIntyre with a smirk. McIntyre keeps yelling for a moment, then turns back around….and is greeted by Deas running toward him! Bryan goes for a clothesline, but McIntyre ducks and Deas runs into the ropes. Ironfist tags himself in. He rushes in toward McIntyre, who drop toe holds him and then locks in his Last Temptation. Ironfist taps immediately.

TL: Here are your winners, Ireland’s Most Wanted!

Marvin simply shakes his head and strolls backstage as he looks down at McIntyre in the ring

SP-“Deas brought his A game and Ironfist came to dance, but in the end it just wasn‘t enough.”

AS-“Yeah, but Deas has nothing to be ashamed of. He was the MVP of the match, in my opinion! In any case, McIntyre picks up the much needed win and IMW seems back on track.”




The scene fades in on the backstage corridors of the RoP arena, where Eric Hancock can be seen strolling, a duffel bag over one shoulder. Hancock goes to turn a corner, but finds himself face-to-face with the RoP Texas Television Champion, Ace Andrews! Ace simply smirks as he stares at Eric, who looks at Ace for a few moments before putting his duffel bag down.

Eric: “What do you want, Ace?”

Ace: “I just came to talk Eric. I was hoping after I beat you earlier, you might have seen sense and realised just how much better I am then you. I mean, if I can beat you that easily when you have backup, just imagine how embarrassed you’ll be when you face me one-on-one. Why don’t you do the smart thing and just walk away now? I promise, if you do, I’ll let you keep walking.”

Eric chuckles and shakes his head.

Eric: “Smart thing? The smart thing is to finally shut your mouth once and for all. And I plan on doing that very very soon. And when I do, I’ll take your title as well.”

Ace shrugs and reaches into his pocket, pulling out a thick wad of notes. Eric’s eyes widen and Ace smiles as he starts to flick through the notes, counting them with an absent look on his face. Eric stares at the money for a few moments and then gets an angry stare and glares at Ace.

Eric: “What? You going to bribe me now? You really think I’d take your money?”

Ace: ‘Nope. It’s not for you. It’s for him.”

Ace looks up and past Eric’s shoulder. Eric pauses, contemplating what Ace meant, but just as he figures it out Ace’s bodyguard, the giant Levinator, clotheslines him from behind! Lev stomps on Eric a little, and then drags him to his feet, grabs him by the back of the neck, and tosses him into the wall opposite. Levinator continues to stomp into Eric as Ace finally finishes flipping through his money, strolling over and handing a wad to Lev. Ace stomps Eric a couple of times, but Eric starts to fight back, and manages to get to his knees, his hands gripping Ace’s shirt, when Lev axe-handles his back. Lev lifts Hancock over his shoulder and then tosses him like a dart into a nearby wall. Ace meanwhile looks down at his shirt and then over to Lev.

Ace: “Dammit Lev. This is a $3000 shirt. He almost ruined it!”

Lev simply turns and shrugs, but the momentary distraction seems to be enough, as Hancock hits Lev low! Hancock starts throwing everything he has at Lev, trying to get the big man down, and after a massive kick to his right knee, Lev staggers down to one knee, but that merely gives Ace a chance to use Lev as a springboard, as he races over and slams Eric in the head with his title belt! Eric goes down, busted open and Ace continues to stomp on him some more as Lev gets up and shakes the cobwebs out. Lev starts stomping on Eric too, while Ace rips of his tie, drops down, and starts choking Eric out with it!

Ace: ‘Just stay down! Stay down you dumb fuck!”

Ace pulls tighter on the tie, while Lev grabs Hancock’s right leg, slips it behind his neck, and stands up stretching it around his neck in a Stretch Muffler as Lev pulls hard on it, while Ace continues choking Hancock with his tie.

Ace: “You won’t beat me! So stay away! You think your better then me? Huh? Huh? I’ll show you whose better! Bring him, Lev!”

Ace lets go of Hancock, allowing Lev to stretch the leg a little more, then let go, and throw Eric over a shoulder. Lev starts following Ace down the corridor, while Ace occasionally turns around and smacks Eric, and talks trash. Finally they reach a vending machine, and Ace tells Lev to let him go. Ace kneels down, next to Hancock, getting a handful of his hair and slamming him in the face with some hard rights, before Ace yanks back on his now bloodied back hair and snarls.

Ace: “You ready to give up? You ready to just walk away while you still CAN walk away?”

Eric takes a deep breath, looks up into Ace’s face, and then spits in his face!

Eric: “Fuck….you.”

Ace glares at Hancock and then slowly shakes his head.

Ace: “No Eric. Fuck you. Do it Lev.”

Ace stands back up, and Lev reaches down to grab Eric, who throws a couple of feeble punches at him, but Lev simply goozles him with his left hand, yanks him up the wall, holds him in place and smacks him twice in the face! With a snarl, Lev throws the now unmoving Eric over his shoulders, and steps closer to the vending machine. Pausing slightly, he glances at Ace who nods.

Ace: ‘Do it.”

Lev braces, and then throws Eric up, around, and swings his right leg into the vending machine with the SRI! Lev drops Hancock who is now screaming and clutching at his leg, and Ace steps closer and smiles as he kneels down, holding his title belt just an inch away from Hancock’s face.

Ace: ‘Was it worth it, Eric? Was messing with me worth never walking again? Do the smart thing, and stay away. Because if you come back, next time I won’t have Lev swing you into the vending machine. Next time, I’ll have Lev swing the vending machine into you.”

Ace stands up and starts to walk off, slipping his title onto his shoulder as he does. After he’s taken a few steps he smirks and then walks back to Eric, who is still clutching at his leg. Ace reaches into his pocket and pulls out a simple Ace of Clubs, dropping it on Hancock’s chest.

Ace: ‘You just got Aced…bitch.”

Ace and Lev then walk off, Ace whistling a nice tune, as we fade out on a final shot of the bloodied Eric still clutching at his knee.




S.P: "Well, after that; it's time for the Main Event of the evening, and what a match we have for you tonight, tell 'em about it Strong!"

A.S: "Of course it's my broadcast partner going one on one with Terry Marvin, a match I expect 'The Whole Show' to just come out on top on."

Stu-E glances over at Arturious, stands up and takes his head set off as the fans start to cheer wildly. He walks around the table, not taking his eyes off his broadcast partner and kicks the broadcast table with a wicked smile on his face. The crowd eat it up and start cheering as Stu-E turns away and walks up the aisle, taking his jacket off on the way and tossing it in to the crowd.
As he gets closer to the top of the entrance way he takes off his shirt and throws it in to the crowd before heading through the curtains, but the camera follows him as he makes his way around the backstage area.

AS: Well, folks, up next is the main event and as you can see, Stu is getting ready for it or on his way to get ready for it. I’m not sure what to expect for this match but it’s surely gonna be a wild one.

Most of the people he passes are just general ring crew and what not, but one of the guys he passes is Jared James. Suprisingly, they acknowledge each other with a smile and a nod of the head but the next person he meets is just confused. Bryan Deas is minding his own business when Stu-E throws his belt at him and just walks past him and laughs, Bryan just looks on.
After passing Bryan we come to his locker room, he pushes the door open and for a brief second Sofia is seen sitting on a chair waiting for him, the door shuts behind Stu-E and this is where the camera view remains for a brief second until the door re-opens and out steps Stu-E Price ready to make his entrance, he winks at the camera as if to say 'how did I get changed so quickly' as the scene fades back to ringside.

AS: This should be a good one, folks…….




TL: The following match is your main event and it is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, on his way to the ring…….”England’s Favourite Wrestler” Stu-E Price!

“Kashmir” hits and Stu walks out from the back to cheers with Sofia by his side. The fans instantly start a “Stu-E” chant at the first glimpse of him. He smirks at them and points to a select few as he walks down the entrance aisle. He gets to the ring steps and lets Sofia go first before he climbs up and opens the ropes for her. She gets in and he follows suit. He twirls her around and then gets to his corner as she gets out onto the apron and pats him on the back as his music fades.

AS: My boy Stu has been looking forward to this all night and he’s ready to kick some ass here…….

MG: Folks, pardon my broadcast partner for not introducing me but I am Mick Garrity and will be calling this match alongside Mister Strong and I would appreciate it if you cut back on the cussing, Strong, there’s children out there watching us you know!

TL: And his opponent……..from Las Vegas, Nevada…..representing the Sin City Syndicate…….”The Real Show” Terry Marvin!

“Raise Up” plays as Terry comes from the back with his hands raised to boos. He smirks arrogantly as a fan stands on the guard rail by the entrance aisle, flipping him off. He places his hand on the face’s forehead and shoves them back as he makes his way down to the ringside area with a swagger.

AS: This man has earned himself a shot at the Southwestern Heavyweight Championship and the match will take place in four weeks at Out for Blood: Momentary Lapse of Reason where he takes on Dillon D’Angelo and Alexander McIntyre in a three way dance but tonight he’s got a pissed off Stu to contend with.

MG: You know, I don’t condone what Terry and his boys have been doing, but it’s been effective. They’re united and everyone else isn’t. You got to imagine he’s got Big Lev, Simon and Ace backstage watching this match for him and who has Stu got? Nobody!

AS: Look at this, Terry isn’t getting the ring, he’s going after Sofia it seems and after what him and the Syndicate have done to Stu, getting in wild brawls with him lately, pouring more fuel on the fire may not be the best of ideas.

Terry says something to Sofia, who’s now on the arena floor and then reaches up to place his hand on her cheek to boos from the fans when Stu comes out of the ring and turns him around, cold cocking him with shot after shot and nailing stiff knife edged chop after chop to Terry’s chest. Terry stumbles against the guard rail and Stu kicks the back of his knee repeatedly before he grabs Terry by the hair and to the delight of the fans whips him into the ring post. Terry collides with it hard and falls over the ring steps. He uses them to pull himself up and attempts to crawl into the ring, though Stu grabs his foot and raises it up to slam his knee into the top of the steps. Terry screams in pain and goes to grab at it, but Stu lifts it up and brings it down again!

AS: Stu seems to be working over Terry’s leg here and I’m sure that Dillon and McIntyre are backstage taking note of this.

MG: Thank you, captain obvious. I’m sure that’s what everyone here and watching around the world is thinking.

AS: Why don’t you just shut the hell up, Garrity?

Stu lets go of Terry’s leg and Marvin rolls into the ring. Stu follows suit and waits for Terry to get up. When he does, Stu closes in and goes for a German suplex, but Terry elbows him in the skull several times, then turns around and plants Stu down with a DDT. He gets up, visibly limping and when Stu sits up, kicks him in the chest several times, then pulls him up and nails a legsweep on him. Stu crawls over to the ropes and uses them to help himself up. Terry charges and Stu lifts his foot up, but Terry catches it. Stu lifts his other one up, holding onto the top rope for support and Terry catches that one too! Terry throws his legs to the side and between the top and middle rope. Stu spins and Terry catches him with an elbow drop across his chest. He pulls Stu into the middle of the ring and pins him. One………Two! Stu gets a shoulder up.

MG: Close call for Stu there, wouldn’t you say, Strong?

AS: I’d say many things………the foremost being that you’re a prick.

Terry pulls Stu to a sitting position and then kicks him repeatedly in the back. He smirks as Stu writhes in pain with this, then Terry takes a few steps to the side and goes for a kick to his chest, but Stu ducks back and gets up quickly. Terry turns and Stu kicks him in the knee of his that he was working on, then reels him in for a snap suplex! He hangs on and lifts Terry up and brings him back with another! The crowd is electric s Stu gets up and brings Terry back into the mat with a third! Not done by any means, Stu lifts Terry up a fourth time, but Terry knees Stu in the groin, causing him to let go and stumble back to boos. Stu looks up and Terry nails some chops to his chest. Stu’s in pain, but fights back with some chops of his own. The action is fast and furious as the two stand there, trading chop for chop to the point where their chests are both raw and beat red. Terry gouges Stu in the eyes, though and then grabs him and whips him into the corner. Terry charges in and nails a splash on him, then takes Stu and sets him up on the top turnbuckle. Terry climbs to the top as well and sits down as he nails some closed fists to Stu’s skull, then grabs him and falls back, nailing a T-bone suplex on Stu from the top that leaves himself in a tree of woe position that he gets out of. The crowd is chanting “Terry sucks” as he crawls over to Stu and makes a cover. One……….Two………..NO! Stu gets a shoulder up! Marvin can’t believe it and demands that the referee count again as he hooks both legs. One……….Two………..NO! Stu kicks out!

MG: Marvin trying to get an early, easy win here. Speaking of easy, how’s your mom doing, Strong?

AS: You son………of…….a……bitch!

Terry gets up and pulls Stu to his feet slowly, but Stu responds with some shots to Terry’s midsection. He gets to the side of Terry and then chop blocks his knee. Terry goes down to a knee with a look of pain and anguish on his face. Stu ends up getting behind Terry and wrapping his arms around his head with a sleeper hold. Terry flails his arms trying to get out, but it’s to no avail as they’re in the middle of the ring. He seems to be fading, but then musters whatever gas in his tank that he’s got to battle to his feet. He reaches up and thumbs Stu in the eye, causing him to loosen the sleeper, then he reaches up again and nails a stunner on Stu. Stu stumbles back into a corner and nearly falls over. Sofia looks concerned on the outside and starts to slap the apron, causing the fans to start clapping along to will Stu back into it. She starts to yell encouragement to Stu, which causes Marvin to point at her and yell “shut up, bitch” before he rushes into the corner looking for a running knee on Stu, but Stu moves and rushes into the center of the ring before he comes back and nails a British Pound on Terry. Marvin stumbles out of the corner and after he falls to the mat like a tree, Stu gets down and covers him. One………Two……..! Marvin gets a shoulder up!

MG: Look at that, Strong, he fell down after that British Pound like you did after I nailed you in the jaw. The only difference is Terry isn’t crying.

AS: I’m starting to miss Stu being here and commentating with me……..

Stu pulls Terry up and goes for the Stun Cutter, but Terry sends him into the ropes. When he comes back, Terry grabs him, then nails a side effect. Stu bounces off the mat and Terry seems to be desperately seeking the win as he pins him. One……….Two…………NO! Stu gets a foot on the bottom rope. Terry shakes his head and pulls Stu to his feet. He sets him up for a piledriver, but Stu ends up reversing, lifting Terry up and crotching him on the top rope. Terry’s mouth is open as this happens and Stu climbs out onto the apron. He grabs Terry by the head and sets up for a Stun Cutter to the outside to a massive ovation from the crowd, but Terry manages to get a leg free, swings it over the ropes to the apron and shoves Stu off the apron and right into Sofia! Both fall to the floor and the fans and start a “Terry sucks” chant again as the ref gets out of the ring and checks on Sofia.

MG: See! In sports entertainment, this wouldn’t happen, Strong. That woman wouldn’t have gotten hurt because sports entertainment does not promote man on woman violence!

AS: Do you think Stu wanted to crash into Sofia? Do you think he wanted to hurt her, you dumbass? I thinks eh may need some medical help……..

Terry hops off of the apron and rolls Stu into the ring. The crowd is booing and even throwing things at Terry as he stands there and finally yells “I don’t give a damn about her” to the referee and forces him in the ring. He limps over to Stu as he starts to get up and then grabs him and plants him with The Whiplash and covers him. The ref is reluctant to do anything, still concerned about Sofia on the outside but Terry yells at him to count the pin. One……..Two………….NO! Stu kicks out and the place goes ape shit. Terry covers him once again. One………Two…………NO! He kicks out again!

MG: Stu with another kickout and it’s hard to believe that he’s able to kick out of Terry’s Whiplash…….even more difficult to believe than the fact that you actually got a job here!

AS: Stu is as tough as they come and I think that Terry is finding that out now.

Terry pulls Stu up, but Stu unloads with shot after shot on him. Terry stumbles back and Stu nails a double leg takedown on Terry and then gets back up as he hangs onto Terry’s feet and wraps them around his own leg and turns over to apply a sharpshooter. Terry screams and Stu cranks back on it. Stu has a look of anguish on his face as he pulls back as far as he seemingly can on it and Terry screams as he raises his hand, seemingly ready to tap, but the crowd starts shower boos down on them as out from the back walks Levinator and Ace. They both make their way down to ringside where Sofia is starting to come to. Ace strolls over to her and this causes Stu to break his submission hold. He walks over to the ropes and screams at Ace to keep his hands off of her, though Ace only seems to scoff at this.

MG: Ace and Levinator are out here and it looks like things are only about to get worse for Stu………..

AS: This is the one thing that I think you and I agree on…………

Stu turns around and Terry is right there. Despite the fact that he seems to be hobbling a little, Terry grabs Stu and then reels him in with a Northern Lights Suplex. The referee gets down and counts it. One………Two…………NO! Stu kicks out! The crowd is going crazy and chanting “Stu’s gonna kill you”. Terry has wide eyes as he looks up at the referee and barks at him. He gets up in his face as Ace and Levinator look concerned on the outside of the ring. Ace gets up onto the apron and starts going crazy as he pulls the referee over toward the ropes and screams at him. Terry reaches into his pants and pulls out a small chain. He wraps it around his fist and waits for Stu to get up. Stu reaches his feet slowly and Terry swings for the fences. Stu ducks and Terry turns and Stu goes for a Stun Cutter, but Terry shoves him off of him and into the ropes. Levinator nails him right in the back and Stu stumbles right into another Whiplash! Terry gets down and hooks a leg! One……….Two………..Three!

TL: Here is your winner, TERRY MARVIN!

MG: The Syndicate got the assist! Lev helped Marvin out and in the end, it was the boost Terry needed!

AS: Yeah and this don’t look good for Stu……..

Lev gets into the ring as Ace forces Sofia to watch as Terry picks up Stu by the head and nails him repeatedly. Lev grabs Stu and pulls him to boos. He hoists him above his head and then steps away from him, dropping him into the mat with a press slam. Terry smirks and goes to lift Stu back up when all of a sudden Lucas Sensation comes rushing out of the back with a chair. Marvin immediately high tails it, but Lev don't seem to see it as he's barking at some fans at ringside. Lucas slides into the ring and when Lev turns around, nails him between the eyes and sends the big man stumbling back and over the ropes. He regroups with Ace and Terry on the floor as Jared James and Johnny Holliday come rushing from the back and into the ring to help even things out and check on Stu.

AS: Stu showed some respect to Jared earlier and I think it may have paid off for him here as The Syndicate is finally outnumbered!

MG: Talk about an equilizer, Lucas and his chair took the big man down and we're seeing The Syndicate sent into retreat after weeks of them running roughshod......

AS: Yes! Yes! Lucas, Jared, Johnny and Stu are on the same page here and it likely helped Stu out as he looked to be at the mercy of Lev and Terry for a second………….wait a minute, folks, I’m being told that something is happening in the back!



We see Simon Sensation signing something and handing it to someone before he goes to open a door. He reaches for it, but before he can get out, we hear running and then see someone leap out of nowhere and nail a double knee strike to Simon’s back, sending him against the door. Of course, this is The Hail to the King and the man doing it is none other than Alexander McIntyre. McIntyre looks down at Simon with a smirk and then kicks him as he holds his back.

McIntyre: You want a war?

He kicks him once again, causing him to scream for help.

McIntyre: Be careful whom you pick it with next time……..

He walks away and the show closes with the look of anguish and pain on Simon’s face.
