In place of the customary IWF Phoenix logo, the black screen is filled with the Black Crusade shield. Then it cuts to a shot of Rick Christian and Matt Biggars at ringside. They look at one another confused.
Rick—Are we? Are we live?
Matt—I don’t know, dude.
Rick—I’m told we are live, I’m not sure what’s going…where are our graphics, where is our theme music? And why are Lilith and Lilah in the ring, and what the hell have they done with our ring and WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH MY SHOW?
Finally the camera turns to the ring. Lilith and Lilah are waiting there in matching, form-fitting black sequined gowns. The ring and the entrance ramp are decked out with red carpet. There’s a huge golden Templar Cross at the back of the ring, the IWF Turnbuckle pads have been covered with Templar Crosses. Lilith has the stick.
Lilith It sure is nice to be home.
Cheap pop from the Salt Lake, crowd.
Lilith Well, not exactly home. I’m not from Salt Lake, I’m actually from Payson.
A small segment of the crowd cheers.
Lilith I see we have a few of you who made the two hour drive. And the rest of you seem to be happy to see a home-grown girl doing well.
Another loud pop from the crowd.
Lilith If only I was that happy to see you….Sweet fucking Christ I couldn’t get out of this state fast enough!
The boos get louder.
Lilith Straight 4.0 student my whole life, Valedictorian, Scholarship offers from every school in the state up to and including Utah…
Half the crowd cheers, the other half boos.
Lilith …And BYU…
The cheering half and the booing half of crowd swap sides.
Lilith It’s everything every high school kid in Utah dreams of. And I packed my bags and BOLTED TO STANFORD just to get away from the self-righteous, homophobic, misogynistic Mormon Church and the stranglehold it has on this backwards, self-important and incredibly boring state!
The whole crowd boos, and even gets a little hostile.
Matt—Well, we’re never going to be allowed back in Utah again.
Rick—I’d like to apologize to the State of Utah, and to the Mormon church…
Matt—What’s the over/under on the number of people outside with torches and pitchforks?
Rick—WHAT?
Matt—That’s what religious nuts do; torches and pitchforks.
Rick—Ladies and gentlemen, and good people of the state of Utah, the views of Lilith and Matt Biggars are their own and do not reflect the views of IWF or its management.
Lilith The same way Urban Meyer did. The same way Deron Williams did. The same way Karl Malone packed up and left this stupid state in the dust for bigger and better things! Malone went to the Lakers. Urban Meyer went to Florida. Deron Williams went to New Jersey…how lousy a place to live does Utah have to be that New Jersey is a step up? And me, after Palo Alto, I went to Japan where I finally came across something I never saw in my life…I sure as hell was never going to find it in Utah. I was never going to find it wrapped up in the Book of Mormon. I was never going to find it as long as I settled for what some asshole standing on an altar told me I should want; like every girl I went to high school did. Like every woman here tonight did. Don’t say you didn’t, you can’t fool me, I grew up here. I know every one of you got proposed to on graduation day, waited two years for the idiot to come back from his mission and got knocked up on your wedding night. You stayed here and settled for what some asshole who thinks he has a direct line to God told you, you wanted. I, on the other hand, went to Japan and found something you’ll never get to experience as a good little Mormon wife: a real man!
Matt—Do we have an evacuation plan?
Rick—I think Lilith is trying to incite a riot.
Matt—Dude, we’re just here for a couple days…can you imagine being stuck here for 18 years.
Lilith I found a real man, and now the world has found him again. The last time you saw him, he waged an all-out war with James Shark and came out on top. Ladies and gentlemen, Mormons and losers—I think that pretty much covers everyone in the crowd—The High Impact Champion, and the only real man a woman from Utah has ever married…STYGIAN!
The lights die out, only a few pale lights make the stage visible. Static fills the jumbo-tron and the lights die out, leaving the screen as the only light in the house briefly before accompanied by matching golden “Tron” lines border the screen and outline the stage and span down the ramp. Slowly the static fades out into an eight-pointed, spiked, barbed chaos star. Fans light lighters, open up their phones, shine small, handheld LCD lights, hell they sell them out at the merchandise stands for just this purpose. Basically the crowd starts looking like a Poison concert during “Every Rose has Its Thorn”; a thousand points of light in a nearly dark arena. Smoke comes up through the stage as the spiraling crescendo of the intro to Helloween’s “Perfect Gentleman” gradually fills the speakers. When the guitars hit, a huge Skeletal Dragon Flies up from the bottom of the screen and blows a gout of fire that seems to streak down the center of the ramp and ends in a blast of pyro from the ring posts
Out walks Stygian from the back, slowly, deliberately, dressed in a suit that’s such a light shade of gray, it’s almost silver, with a black shirt and a matching tie and the High Impact Title over his shoulder. The crowd is roundly booing him by the time he gets to the ring. He takes the microphone from Lilith and the music cuts. The lights come back on, and Stygian raises the mic to speak, but the crowd boos him out, and he’s never one to discourage it. In fact he hands the mic back to Lilith and climbs the closest set of turnbuckles and holds the belt up, pointing into the crowd and jawing back and forth with a few people here and there.
Rick- Stygian isn’t doing much to repair the damage his wife has already done with the mic.
Finally Stygian drops back into the ring, shoulders the belt and takes the mic back from Lilith.
Stygian Well, thank you people of Salt Lake for giving me the kind of welcome I expected from a bunch of ignorant, cult-following hillbillies.
The boos get louder.
Stygian You know, I can’t figure out why you’re booing. Is it because I saved this fine little lady here from being a Mormon concubine, or because I’ve done nothing but destroy your heroes since I got here?
I’ll start first, with credit where credit is due. I am no longer the only legitimate champion in the company. Ruben Ricardo Leon and Craig Hemming flat out destroyed Apex, just like I knew someone would when they finally quit hiding behind Carmine Vesteri’s skirt and got challenged.
The crowd gives a mixed reaction for the new Tag Team Champions, but mostly positive.
Stygian I’ll also give credit to James Shark. Yeah! Give it up for James Shark! No bullshit.
The crowd applauds for the effort it saw at New Year’s Evil where James Shark and Stygian may have had the match of the year on its first day.
Stygian James, you are still a juvenile, unprofessional, over-hyped, foul-mouthed little troll…but I mean what I said; you are one tough son of a bitch. You brought it to me like nobody not named Chuck Matthews has since I came to this company. You laid it on the line and left it all at the mat. But in the end, you were exactly what I said you were: not good enough. No third title, no win, back to the scrap heap. I’m done with you. You know what I don’t hear anymore? You know what nobody says anymore? Nobody says “you haven’t beaten anyone in IWF.” Not anymore. Finally I put this belt on the line against someone that even you; IWF Fans, have to give me respect for beating. Finally I…
The lights in the arena shut off and nothing is heard but the chanting of the crowd. Silver and red lasers suddenly begin to flash throughout the arena, shining in about a thousand places at once. All of a sudden, the opening guitar strings of “Running from you” by Saving Abel is heard throughout the arena
Rick- What the hell is this all about?
Matt- Dude…I hope there weren’t epileptic people watching…they might be dead now!
Silver and red fireworks erupt from the sides of the stage as a thick column of smoke shoots up from underneath the stage, obscuring the top of the entrance ramp. All of a sudden, Dan Alexander walks out of the back and stops and looks around. He then continues down the ramp.
Rick- It’s Dan Alexander!
Matt- He’s back!
I say goodbye to the rearview mirror As a silhouette fades of you Well I hope you think that I'll be back someday, Someday I'll only be back just to leave you again Ooo, I've only come back just to leave you again and again I guess I'll never leave
Dan Alexander walks up the steps and steps into the ring.
I'm running from you Can I get any further away? It feels like the first time...I've been in love If I'm running from you Will you follow me down to the end? If I fall again, will you say goodbye? Will you say goodbye? Yeah yeah...
Dan stands in the middle of the ring and smirks as he stares at the members of The Black Crusade
Dan Alexander Stygian…long time, no see.
Stygian Dan Alexander...what the hell are you doing out here?
Dan Alexander Well I saw this fine party of yours, the nice suit, the fine decorations, the top-notch prostitutes…
The crowd goes “ooohhh” and then pops. Lilith rolls her eyes, and then has to go calm down Lilah. Stygian shakes his head and sighs.
Stygian Not all of us can go to Disney Land and hand out free candy to get a date.
The crowd boos again, with that kind of collective groan that suggests Stygian might have crossed a line.
Dan Alexander Oh really cute. I suppose I deserved that.
Stygian I wish I would have known you were coming, I’d have invited Chris Hansen. But, I didn’t. Come to think of it, Dan, I didn’t invite you so this brings me back to my initial question: what the hell are you doing out here?
Dan Alexander Well we do have a match later tonight…
Stygian I saw that. I thought about just poking you with a stick and firing you up into getting yourself DQed again.
Dan Alexander Ouch, man, that hurts. It’s true, but it hurts. Yes, I did get myself disqualified. Yes I let you get under my skin. All that crap you said about my career, about my then-girlfriend…all of it. I’m going to be honest; I didn’t think you were very important back then. I let my ego get the better of me. But now, look at you; you look good. You look tough. You and James Shark, hell you might have locked down match of the year on the first night of the year. I’m thinking I want to be a part of that. I’m thinking maybe I should try to take that belt from you. I was thinking maybe tonight…
The crowd roars, and Stygian laughs.
Stygian Oh, ho ho, oh ha, ha ha ha ha, wow. Really, Dan? Stop me if I’m wrong, but didn’t, didn’t you fail miserably to capture the tag team titles the last time anyone saw you in an IWF ring? And wasn’t that a month ago? How very much like you, Dan. How very much like this company. A guy takes some time off, claims he’s retiring, and then he comes back and wants something for nothing. Just like Corey Casey, huh Dan. And you would pick tonight wouldn’t you? After James Shark and I beat each other half to death, I’ve still got stitches in my forehead and bruises on my body from that match. And you’ve been sitting at home, drinking whatever the hell you drink, watching TV and suddenly because I am now worth the “great” Dan Alexander’s time, he deigns to crash my celebration, celebrating the fact that I am the only legitimate singles champion in the company after stealing the show at New Year’s Evil and getting the company off to a great start for 2012—which, by the way, you’re welcome IWF—and suddenly you want to come down and demand a title shot like you’re owed it. Name one thing you’ve done in the last 30, hell, 60 days. I’ll tell you what you’ve done in that time; you’ve failed to win the briefcase, you’ve gotten yourself disqualified against me and you’ve failed to win the tag-team titles.
Dan Alexander Yeah, I did all that, I also did this!
Dan smashes Stygian in the face with the microphone and then lights into him with right hands. Both mics are dropped, Stygian drops the belt and fights back with a Spartan Kick that gets Dan down. The girls clear out, Stygian kicks the belt out of his way, and a couple of brave IWF crewmen reach in and save the microphones. Stygian stomps on Dan and buys time to tear off his jacket, his tie and his shirt, each are thrown out of the ring and collected by Lilith and Lilah, who also has the High Impact Title. Stygian pulls Dan up and presses him overhead. But as Stygian drops Dan down, Dan swings around and grabs Stygian’s arm. He pulls and just about lands with Stygian in the Arm Ripper; but Stygian rolls out of the ring. Dan comes over to the edge of the ring and dares Stygian to get back in, he even offers to hold the ropes, but Stygian waves his hand, takes his belt, and makes his way to the back with the girls.
IT'S ELECTRIC!
Johnny's voice fades into "Slow Motion" by Nickelback, and the crowd erupts into cheers.
The last straw just broke I'm a line in your tasteless joke What's up with that heart you've stolen? Don't worry cause It's not broken, it's just swollen
Could anticipate How you're feeling from day to day Well about you, now that you're needing Don’t worry cause They’re laughing and you're bleeding
Johnny walks out from behind the curtain, wearing a suit and carrying a microphone. He stands in the way of Stygian and the girls and waits for his music to cut.
Johnny Electric Hold on there just a second, big man. I was in the back, I was listening to the two of you, I saw that little brawl and I think you both raised some interesting points. Yes, Stygian, that was one hell of a match you had at New Year’s Evil, and come end of 2012, I’m sure it will be nominated. I’ll give you that. And yes, after that match, it’s really not fair that you should have to defend that title so soon. I’ll even agree that you shouldn’t defend it against a guy who just took a month off, when it hasn’t even been a week since you and James Shark beat the hell out of one another.
The crowd boos.
Johnny Electric Hey, it’s a good point. Dan, you can’t just go sit at home for a month and then come back and jump into a title match. If you want it, you can earn it here tonight.
Dan no longer has a mic, but he yells “HOW” up the ramp anyway.
Johnny Electric If you want another match with Stygian at Rising Monarchy with the title on the line, win this match tonight without the title on the line. You do that, Dan, you’ve got your match. Sounds reasonable to me, and I make the decisions around here.
Johnny walks out to the back, leaving Stygian and Dan to stare at one another across the long distance. The scene slowly fades to the Battle Grounds logo
LIVE from the EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah
ire explodes out of the four ring corners, and fireworks begin exploding up either side of the ramp before sending a massive fireworks display on the stage. A jet of flame erupts on the stage, reaching up to the screen, where the IWF Phoenix logo appears. The camera pans across the crowd, taking in some of their signs.
“FEAR THE CHUCK!” “The Mac Attack is back, Jack!” “ > Quack Attack is still better though” “I CAME TO SEE LIBBEH!” “I came here to beat it when I see Ashlison!” “I own IWF stock…PUT ME ON THE BOARD!”
The camera cuts over to show Rick Christian and Matt Biggars, who are sitting behind the announcer’s table at ringside
Rick- Hello one and all from a jam packed EnergySolutions Arena here in Salt Lake City, Utah!
Matt- Why the hell are we in Utah?
Rick- What do you mean?
Matt- I mean, aren’t the Mormons like, wicked uptight about seeing lesbians and hot chicks and dudes bleeding and shit?
Rick- There are other people besides Mormons that live in Utah, Matt…
The camera pans over to show Heather Thompson, who is standing in the middle of the ring. in the corner of the ring stands TJ Banks, who is throwing some shadow punches
Heather Thompson- The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, already in the ring…From Miami, Florida…Weighing in at 220 pounds…TJ Banks!
TJ Banks takes a few steps out of his corner and raises his clenched fists up to the sky
Rick- TJ Banks had a very successful debut at New Years Evil last week
Matt-Let’s see if he can keep it going this week!
Heather Thompson- And his opponent…
Why is everybody always picking on me? Does anybody really know a thing about me? But one of these days we’ll be in the same place In the same place, punk, at the very same time But when it takes place and you wanna talk shit Then step your ass up and say it right to my face
“Full Nelson” by Limp Bizkit erupts through the arena. The camera pans across the crowd, who begin cheering, before moving back to the stage, where Craig Hemming slowly walks out. He looks around at the crowd, then raises his custom hammer over his head, eliciting more cheers from the audience.
Heather Thompson- From Battle Creek, Michigan…Weighing in at 315 Pounds…He is one half of the IWF Tag Team Champions...Craig Hemming!
Rick- And here comes the man who, alongside Ruben Ricardo Leon, DOMINATED Apex and took the IWF Tag Team Titles away from Hawk and Chuck
Matt- Yeah, yeah…
Rick- Not only that…but Craig and Ruben beat down on Apex so badly that Chuck SNAPPED after the match and seemingly ended the career of Jason Hawk!
Matt- I’d like to take this time to wish my friend the Hawkman a speedy recovery!
You’ll get knocked the fuck out Cause your mouth’s writing checks that your ass can’t cash Knocked straight the fuck out Cause your mouth’s writing checks that your ass can’t cash
Craig rolls his shoulders and neck, then walks down the ramp, pausing here and there to tussle a kid’s hair or let a woman in the front row touch his arms. He reaches the base of the ramp and pauses, falling to his hands and doing a quick set of five pushups before hopping back to his feet. He stares up at the ring. He takes a few steps and jumps straight up, landing on the apron before stepping between the ropes.
I ain’t believing all the shit you’ve been talkin about me Don’t even know me and still you’re talkin shit about me But one of these days I’m gonna catch you in the act In the act, red handed, caught up in the act, punk And that’ll be the day, the one and only day To step your ass up and say it right to my face
Craig raises his hammer again, getting more cheers. He pounds the hammer on the mat three times, as fireworks explode from the ring corners with each hit. Craig hands the hammer to the referee, who takes it to the timekeeper’s table.
You’ll get knocked the fuck out Cause your mouth’s writing checks that your ass can’t cash Knocked straight the fuck out Cause your mouth’s writing checks that your ass can’t cash, motherfucker
Just shut your fuckin mouth
Craig raises his fists to the crowd as he waits for the match to begin. The ref looks at both men and nods before calling for the bell
Craig Hemming [vs.] TJ Banks
[Ding, Ding, Ding!]
TJ Banks runs directly at Craig Hemming and leaps into the air, looking to connect a flying cross-body block. Craig Hemming catches TJ Banks and throws TJ Banks up into the air. Craig Hemming catches TJ Banks as TJ Banks falls out of the air, and Craig Hemming powers TJ Banks down to the canvas with a thunderous double edged spinebuster
Rick- TJ Banks was looking for that cross body block…
Matt- But instead got caught by the powerhouse known as Craig Hemming!
Craig Hemming leans down and grabs TJ Banks and hauls TJ Banks up to his feet. Craig Hemming Irish whips TJ Banks to the corner turnbuckle. Craig Hemming follows TJ Banks in and, as soon as TJ Banks’ back hits the turnbuckle, Craig Hemming delivers a crushing clothesline that causes TJ Banks to slump down to the seated position in the corner turnbuckle
Rick- This match has been all Hemming since the bell rang!
Matt- Maybe TJ Banks bit off more than he could chew this week…
Craig Hemming takes a few steps back, measuring TJ Banks. Craig Hemming then rushes in and delivers a massive boot that connects with the side of TJ Banks’ skull
Rick- What a boot!
Matt- I think he just put TJ Banks’ lights out!
Craig Hemming leans down and grabs TJ Banks’ right leg. Craig Hemming hauls TJ Banks out to the middle of the ring before leaning down and dragging TJ Banks up to his feet. Craig Hemming then reels TJ Banks in, trapping TJ Banks in the powerbomb position. Craig Hemming then lifts TJ Banks up, holding TJ Banks aloft for a moment, before throwing TJ Banks back first to the canvas with a massive Jackknife powerbomb
Rick- Hemmingbomb!
Matt- Game over, TJ
Craig Hemming puts his boot on TJ Banks’ chest as the ref drops down and counts
-1- -2- -3-
The ref calls for the bell
[Ding, Ding, Ding!]
Heather Thompson- Here is your winner…Craig Hemming!
The ref grabs Craig Hemming’s wrist and holds it up in the air as the crowd applauds loudly
Rick- I don’t even think Craig broke a sweat during that match!
Matt- That was just pure domination by Craig Hemming from start to finish…TJ Banks didn’t even stand a chance!
Craig Hemming grabs his half of the IWF Tag Team Titles from the time keeper and then climbs the nearest turnbuckle. Craig Hemming lifts the title high up into the air as the camera focuses in on him for a moment before cutting to the back
The camera cuts to the back to show a black 2010 Lincoln Town Car pull into the parking lot. The camera focuses in as the driver of the car gets out and walks around to the rear passenger’s side door. The driver of the car opens the door and Rosalie Knight climbs out of the back of the car.
Rosalie Knight Thank you
The driver tips his hat as Rosalie Knight grabs her wrestling gear out of the back seat of the car. Rosalie Knight then walks through the parking garage and through a large set of double doors as she enters the arena. Rosalie Knight walks through the back stage area, looking around at all the locker room doors and such. Eventually she comes to a woman who is holding a clipboard in her hands
Rosalie Knight Excuse me, I was just wondering if you could tell me where my locker room is
The woman looks up at Rosalie Knight before looking down at the clipboard. She then checks the clipboard before looking back up at Rosalie Knight
Stage Hand Sure, follow me Mrs. Knight
The stage hand leads Rosalie Knight through a long hallway. As the two women walk down the hallway, they pass two other women who are standing just off to the side. The stage hand tries to slide by the two women, but she accidentally bumps into one of the women
Stage Hand I’m…I’m sorry…
The woman slowly turns around…revealing the pissed off face of Latoya Banks
Latoya Banks Bitch! You tryin’ to start something with me?
The stage hand quickly nods her head “no”
Stage Hand No ma’am. It was an accident…
Latoya Banks I outta fucking kick yo bitchass right here and now…
Latoya Banks cocks back her hand as if to slap the stage hand but Rosalie Knight suddenly reaches out and grabs Latoya Banks’ hand
Rosalie Knight Hey…it was an accident alright?
Rosalie Knight releases Latoya Banks’ hand. Latoya Banks slowly turns and glares at Rosalie Knight
Rosalie Knight So why don’t we all just go ahead and get along with our evenings?
Latoya Banks I know you…you’re that bitch Rosalie Knight…
Latoya Banks looks Rosalie Knight up and down
Latoya Banks You don’t look as tough as they say you are. You just look like another weakass white girl
Rosalie Knight smirks slightly
Rosalie Knight I can assure you that I am every bit as tough as they say I am
Latoya Banks snickers as she gets up in Rosalie Knights’ face
Latoya Banks Oh really…
Latoya Banks cocks her hand back and goes to punch Rosalie Knight. Rosalie Knight ducks the right hook and tackles Latoya Banks to the ground. The two women begin rolling around on the ground and exchanging blows as security suddenly arrives and separates the two women. The scene then fades to commercial
The show comes back from commercial to show Heather Thompson, who is standing in the middle of the ring
Heather Thompson- The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first…
The lights switch on bright and a loud happy cheering plays, as soon as Tyson walks down the ramp the cheering fades and the lights turn grey, “10’s” by Pantera plays but in a classic and old remix version.
Heather Thompson- From the Grand Forgotten City…Weighing in at 229 pounds…Tyson Rowle!
Rick- Welcome back to more IWF Battle Grounds action ladies and gents!
Matt- And this next match up pits two former friends against each other!
Rick-That’s right Matt. Tyson Rowle is set for one on one action against the man that he once considered to be his close friend…SEAN LIBBEH!
Tyson walks down to the ring holding his head down, he climbs through the middle ropes and pulls his hood back to reveal his face.
Heather Thompson- And his opponent…
Guitar sounds play in the arena. The lights dim a dark purple with shines of green around the arena
All because of you, All because of youuuu, All because of YOU!
Pyros explode on the stage. The camera moves right into the stage showing Sean Libby walking down and pointing at the right end of the arena
I haven't slept in so long, When I do I dream, Of drowning in the ocean, Longing for the shore Inside these arms are yours,
Heather Thompson- From Framingham, Massachusetts…Weighing in at 197 Pounds…Irishman Sean Libby!
Rick- LIBBEH!
Matt- LIBBEH!!!!!!
Rick- I hope that LIBBEH is prepared for a full on, full out brawl here tonight…because I can assure you that Tyson is!
Matt- Ladies and gents, the smart bet tonight…PUT YOUR MONEY ON LIBBEH!
Libby walks down the entrance ramp, yelling at the camera
Sean Libby Yeah!
Sean runs and jumps on the steel steps
All because of you! I believe in Angels, No not the kind with wings! No not the kind with halos! The kind that bring you home! But home becomes a strange place, I FOLLOW YOUR VOICE! All you gotta do is, Shout it out!
Sean climbs the turnbuckle and puts his hands over his mouth and shouts
In the fields where nothing grew was weeds I found a flower on my feet Bending there in my direction
Sean jumps off the turnbuckle and goes to the ropes. Sean bounces on the bottom rope and has one leg over the middle rope shouting at the crowd
I rapped a hand around its stem I pulled until the roots gave in Finding there what I'd be missing But I know!
Sean bounces off the ropes and turns to the other side of the ring and raises his arms up
So I told myself, Told myself its wrong.
Sean points at the fans
Theres a point we've passed from which we can't return! I felt the cold rain of the coming storm
Sean takes off his trench coat and looks at the ramp/looks at his opponent
All because of you I haven't slept in so long...
The ref looks at both men and nods before calling for the bell
Tyson Rowle [vs.] Sean Libby
[Ding, Ding, Ding!]
Tyson Rowle and Sean Libby both slowly walk to the center of the ring, each man eyeing each other suspiciously
Rick- These two have a long history, both as friends and as enemies
Matt- And every time these two men square off, there has always been plenty of fireworks! I expect this match to…
Sean Libby suddenly drops backwards a half a step and catches Tyson Rowle right under the chin with a superkick
Rick- IRISH SHOT!
Matt- ALREADY?!
Tyson Rowle falls to the canvas in a heap. Sean Libby drops down and looks like he is going to cover Tyson Rowle. Instead, Sean Libby picks Tyson Rowle back up to his feet and Irish whips Tyson Rowle into the corner turnbuckle
Rick- LIBBEH not going for the pin here for some reason…
Matt- That might not be the smartest move…
Sean Libby runs closely behind Tyson Rowle. As soon as Tyson Rowle hits the turnbuckle, Sean Libby jumps into the air. Sean Libby leaps over Tyson Rowle. Sean Libby grabs Tyson Rowle’s head and neck and throws Tyson Rowle out into the middle of the ring as Sean Libby lands on his feet on the top rope. Sean Libby then leaps backwards, executing a full moonsault, before landing across Tyson Rowle’s throat with a leg drop
Rick- HOLY SHIT!
Matt- HE JUST COMBINED THE COLD OF IRELAND INTO ONE MOVE!!!!
Sean Libby hooks Tyson Rowle’s leg as the ref counts
-1- -2- -3-
The ref calls for the bell
[Ding, Ding, Ding!]
Heather Thompson- Here is your winner…Sean Libby!
Sean Libby starts to get to his feet when, all of a sudden, Ashley Matthews and Alison Williams come running down the ramp and slide into the ring
Rick- What the hell?!
Matt- WOOHOOO! ASHLISON FTW!
Ashley Matthews quickly begins stomping down on Sean Libby as Alison Williams walks over to the corner turnbuckle and rips the padding off.
Rick- Uh oh…that cold, unforgiving steel turnbuckle is fully exposed….
Matt- I WISH ALISON AND ASHLEY WERE FULLY EXPOSED! WWWWWOOOOOOOO!!!!
Rick- You really are pathetic…
Alison Williams and Ashley Matthews both lean down and drag Sean Libby up to his feet. Both women then grab one of Sean Libby’s arms and count together
Ashley Matthews and Alison Williams 1…2…3!!!!
On “3” both women Irish whip Sean Libby so hard at the turnbuckle that they both fall to the canvas. Sean Libby is sent running across the ring before he collides, sternum first, into the exposed steel turnbuckle. Sean Libby falls to the canvas in a heap, clutching his chest
Rick- What the hell!!?!?!
Matt- LIBBEH’S ribs could be broken!!!!
Ashley Matthews and Alison Williams both slowly get to their feet, smiling wickedly, as they stare at Sean Libby, who is clutching his ribs and grimacing in pain. The camera focuses in on Ashley and Alison, who share a passionate kiss, before the show cuts to commercial
Subject: Re: Battle Grounds XXIX: The Redneck Returns Mon Jan 09, 2012 5:07 pm
The show returns to Rick and Matt at ringside.
Rick – That was an…interesting commercial, to say the least.
Matt – CHUCK! GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER. YOUR NETWORK IS FALLING APART!
Rick – Whatever that was…it’s over now, and things seem to be running smoothly. And that means, on to the next match!
All the lights go out for a few moments and a single sentence can be seen in red letters on the titantron.
"The reaper has arrived."
Suddenly the beginning intro of Skillet - Forsaken plays on the loud speakers as flames erupt in the center and form a symbol of an inverted cross on fire. Black smoke emerges from entrance ramp, revealing a hooded figure in a black cloak.
I recall going madly in love with you. And I remember this, how could I forget? Regret is a needle in my neck. It's slowly filling me with poison, spreading through my chest.
The crowd stares at the hooded man as he slowly makes he way down the ramp. His expression is focused on what is in front of him, he dosen't bother to look at the fans that are on the sides.
Take my pain, and numb me from this.
He then stops right at the at the end of the ramp and brings his hands together. He then spreads his arms out with his hands opened as dark pyro ignites from the stage.
WHY! Do I have to beg? When all that's left, is a memory? Forsaken!
Why! Do I have to beg? When all that's left, is a memory? Forsaken!!
The man then jumps to the apron with no effort and leaps over the top rope. He then removes the hood showing his hairless features to the crowd, a half crescent moon like marking is seen on his left eye. The crowd looks on in awe as the man stares at them, as if he's trying to peer into their souls.
I recall pledging my sole devotion to you. It reminds me how, now I'm on my knees. My guilt, consume and lost the will in me. Wasting away before you, holding closer to me.
He then removes the cloak revealing a solid black short sleeve kimono. The word "Dark" can be seen in crimson letters with a circle of Latin markings surrounding it and angel wings attached to the sides. On the back is the word "Archangel" written in blood with droplets hanging below the letters. He also wears black and white pants with red crosses on the sides. He hands the cloak to the ref who takes them away.
Take my pain, and numb me from this.
He then does the same hand gesture as before and black pyro erupts from the two back turnbuckles behind him.
WHY! Do I have to beg? When all that's left, is a memory? Forsaken!
Why! Do I have to beg? When all that's left, is a memory? Forsaken!!
The Dark Archangel then picks a corner and leans on the ropes as he patiently waits for the match to begin.
Heather Thompson – The following is a one-fall contest! Introducing first, from San Diego, California…weighing in tonight at 245 pounds…DARK ARCHANGEL!!!
Archangel stares intently at the stage.
Rick – He lost his match at New Year’s Evil, and I think Dark Archangel is feeling a little bitter tonight.
Matt – Blowing your shot at the IWF Championship? That’s sure to get under anyone’s skin! And Archangel has had a nasty mean streak lately. This is bound to get ugly.
The opening strains of Flameheart are accompanied by a large burst of flame, and a kneeling Rosalie gets quickly to her feet. There is no sword this time, just the cloak, and on the fourth measure she starts down the ramp in that confident, knightly stride. When she reaches the ring and climbs inside, she turns to face her fans with her hand raised in salute and acknowledgment of their cheering, before she then kneels in her corner, as is her signature before a match.
Heather Thompson – And the opponent…from Louisberg, North Carolina…weighing tonight at 150 pounds…ROSALIE KNIGHT!!!
Rick – And this young woman is still looking for her big impact in IWF.
Matt – Some people never quite make it, some people do it in their first weeks. So long as you keep at it, anyone can succeed in IWF.
Rick – Unless their name is Matt Rydell.
The referee looks at both competitors, and calls for the bell.
Dark Archangel [vs] Rosalie Knight
[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
Dark walks towards Rosalie, who holds her hands up, ready to fight. Dark shakes his head, and puts his hand in Rosalie’s face, shoving her to the mat.
Matt – This isn’t going to be pretty.
Rick – For once, I agree with you.
Dark grabs Rosalie’s arm and plants it on the mat before leaping up into the air, stomping down on her wrist. Knight screams, clutching her arm to her, cradling her wrist. Dark Archangel drags Rosalie to the corner, seating her there. He stomps her a few times, keeping her in the corner. THe referee grabs him, pulling him away. Dark Archangel shoves the referee away and charges the corner, driving his boot into Rosalie’s face. THe crowd boos.
Matt – YOU’RE A MONSTER!
Rick – This Utah crowd not a fan of Dark Archangel’s tactics here.
Dark Archangel lifts Rosalie to her feet and lifts her onto his shoulder. Rosalie pounds her fists on Dark’s back, trying to escape. Dark Archangel carries her to the center of the ring, and lifts her in a military press. He lifts her a few times before finally throwing her in the air, and catching her in a cutter, taking her to the mat hard.
Matt – Her head bounced off the canvas…
Rick – Just end this, Steel.
Dark Archangel stares down at Rosalie, and plants his foot on her chest. The referee counts.

[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
Heather Thompson – Here is your winner…DARK ARCHANGEL!
Rick – Complete dominance.
Matt – Thank God that match is over…
Dark slides out of the ring and heads up the ramp as the show cuts to backstage, where Kelvin Muamba is seen.
Kelvin Muamba Yo yo yo, it’s yo boi Kelvin Muamba, and I’m here with a man who…well, this white nigga here is a man always surrounded in controversials. Bitches and brothas, Chuck Matthews.
The camera zooms out, showing Chuck Matthews standing next to him.
Kelvin Muamba What’s good Chucky? Where yo bitches? WHERE KELVIN’S BITCHES-
Chuck Matthews Shut up! Just…STOP.
Chuck runs his hand through his hair, glaring at Kelvin. The crowd boos, thanks to Chuck’s interrupting of Muamba’s sweet catchphrase.
Chuck Matthews Now do your job, and ask me your stupid questions so I can go on my way.
Kelvin Muamba Aight, aight, I see how it is, g. Well, at New Years Evil, we saw you attack da hottest lesbo gyaldems in da world, Alison Williams and yo smokin daughter, Ashley Matthews. Why, dog? WHY?
Chuck looks at Kelvin for a second, then smirks.
Chuck Matthews And I suppose you’d like to know why I attacked Jason Hawk after our match, right? That’s what everyone wants to know, isn’t it? I attacked my daughter and her…girlfriend…and I attacked my own tag partner, and probably ended his career. Why?
He looks at Kelvin.
Chuck Matthews Because I can.
Kelvin opens his mouth to speak, but Chuck keeps talking.
Chuck Matthews Last week, I began my mission. I am going to put an end to all of these ridiculously stupid things in IWF. Things like Jason Hawk. Things like Ashlison, or whatever the fuck they’re calling themselves. I helped to create this company, and I’m not about to sit here and watch it become infested with retarded bullshit like this. IWF will be a place to see a good match, not to pretend that putting the donut-bangers in a match together will be anything other than gay sex on TV. I will do what needs to be done in order to make IWF the best show it can be. Last week, it started with the forced retirement of Jason Hawk, and the cancellation of the dumbest match we’ve seen yet in IWF. And this week…
Without warning, Chuck cracks Kelvin across the jaw. He grabs Kelvin by the neck and throws him headfirst into the camera, causing the cameraman to fall down, and a large gash to form on Kelvin’s head. Chuck takes a few steps back, squatting down, punching his fist into the concrete floor, waiting for Kelvin to stand up. Slowly, Kelvin stands, and turns towards Chuck. Chuck charges forward, catching Kelvin by the gut, and sending both men crashing through a pile of set equipment nearby, which collapses on top of them. The cameraman rushes to the wreckage, looking for signs of motion. Finally, one of the massive speakers moves slowly to the side, tumbling away from the rest of the heap, and Chuck crawls from the tangle of wires and steel and sound equipment. Chuck breathes heavily, but rolls his shoulder a few times, and stares back at the bloodied and beaten body of Kelvin Muamba.
Chuck Matthews You’re fired.
The show cuts back to ringside.
Rick – Come on! Now I have to find a new backstage interviewer!
Matt – WHERE KELVIN’S BITCHES AT?! I SAID IT FOR YOU, BUDDY!
Rick – Chuck’s sudden psychotic episodes aside, it’s time we have ourselves a title match!
Matt – The New Blood Championship match was cancelled last week, thanks to a certain douchebag who felt the need to attack the hottest couple in IWF. So as a result, this week, we get to see the New Blood title on the line in what hopefully will be a match that actually runs to completion.
The camera pans to the ring, where Johan Alfredsson is already standing in his corner.
Heather Thompson – The following is a one-fall match, and it is for the New Blood Championship! Introducing the challenger…from Stockholm, Sweden, weighing in tonight at 233 pounds…JOHAN ALFREDSSON!
Rick – The New Age Viking. He proved in past weeks that he has every right to be in this match, competing for this title.
Matt – He’s a scary dude, that’s for sure. I suspect he’ll definitely be able to wrench the title away from Alison tonight.
“Bass Down Low” by DEV starts to play throughout the arena. Alison Williams walks out onto the stage, the New Blood Championship around her waist. She looks over her shoulder, and Ashley Matthews walks out. Alison grabs her hand, and the two walk down the ramp to the boos of the crowd.
Rick – Maybe you were right, Matt. This crowd not really a fan of Alison and Ashley.
Matt – Told you!
The two get to the bottom of the ramp, and Alison looks up at the ring. She pulls Ashley towards her and kisses her before climbing up into the ring. Ashley takes her place at ringside as Alison hands the belt to the referee.
Heather Thompson – And the champion…from Miami, Florida, weighing 120 pounds…she is the current New Blood Champion…ALISON WILLIAMS!!!
Matt – The Hottest Bitch in IWF!
Rick – Alright, Johan. Let’s see what you can do.
Alison Williams [vs] Johan Alfredsson
[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
Alison and Johan circle each other in the ring. Johan steps forward, clotheslining Alison to the mat. He drops his elbow across her chest, and quickly gets to his feet. He drops his elbow again, standing up. He looks at Ashley, and drops his elbow a third time, this time pinning Alison to the mat.

Alison kicks out.
Rick – Not quite for Johan.
Johan lifts Alison to her feet. Alison elbows Johan to the face, causing him to stumble backwards. Alison runs towards him, and drives her shoulder to the back of Johan’s knee. Johan falls to one knee, and Alison quickly grabs his head, looking for a snap DDT. Johan shoves her back, and gets back to his feet. Alison steps away from Johan, looking for a way to retreat. Johan corners her, and pulls her in, lifting her in a suplex. He drops her to the mat, and rolls on top of her, going for another pin.

Alison barely kicks out. Johan gets to his feet and stomps Alison’s arm. He grabs her arm, and twists it around her neck, locking in an anaconda vise.
Matt – Aesir’s Wrath! Locked in!
Rick – NEW CHAMPION!
Alison screams, trying to break free of the hold. She punches Johan in the face with her free hand, but Johan shakes it off, tightening the hold. Alison slaps the mat frantically, tapping out.
[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
Heather Thompson – Here is your winner, and the NEW-
Matt – Wait a minute…
The referee waves his arms wildly, stopping Heather. Johan shakes his head and approaches the referee, yelling at him. The referee slides out of the ring and talks to Heather Thompson.
Heather Thompson – The referee is informing me that Alison Williams had a foot on the ropes, and therefore, the hold was broken. Therefore, the decision is reversed, and the match will continue.
Matt – YES!
Rick – Bullshit! Look at this replay! Ashley put Alison’s foot on the ropes herself!
The replay shows, depicting Alison locked in the hold. Ashley sneaks up to them, and grabs Alison’s ankle, dropping her foot on the bottom rope, then pointing it out to the referee as Alison taps out.
Matt – It ain’t cheating if you don’t get caught! GO ASHLEY!
Before the referee has a chance to call for the bell, Ashley slides into the ring, behind Johan. She kicks Johan straight to the balls, causing Johan to keel over. Ashley hooks both his arms, and calls to Alison, who hooks Johan’s head. Ashley kisses her before they both fall back, driving Johan’s head to the mat with a modified double DDT.
Rick – COME ON!
Matt – Wet Dreamz DDT, combined with a Fallen Angel! Great move from Ashlison!
Rick – And the referee hasn’t officially restarted the match yet…son of a bitch.
Ashley yells at the referee, who calls for the bell.
[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
Alison covers Johan.

[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
Heather Thompson – Here is your winner, and STILL New Blood Champion…ALISON WILLIAMS!
Ashley tackles Alison, kissing her in the middle of the ring. The referee hands Alison her title, and she holds it high in the air.
Matt – Alison retains again!
Rick – SOMEONE GET THAT FUCKING TITLE OFF HER.
IT'S ELECTRIC!
Johnny's voice fades into "Slow Motion" by Nickelback, and the crowd erupts into cheers.
The last straw just broke I'm a line in your tasteless joke What's up with that heart you've stolen? Don't worry cause It's not broken, it's just swollen
Could anticipate How you're feeling from day to day Well about you, now that you're needing Don’t worry cause They’re laughing and you're bleeding
Johnny Electric walks out, holding a microphone.
Johnny Electric Well now! Congratulations, ladies. Points for innovation.
Alison smirks, and steps back into Ashley’s arms.
Johnny Electric I would come out here and complain about how you two manipulated the rules, and essentially conned your way into a title defense…but, you know…technically it was legal, so technically that was a clean victory. But let’s not fool ourselves into thinking Alison is better than Johan Alfredsson.
Alison’s smile vanishes instantly. She goes to yell at Johnny, but Ashley holds her back, trying to calm her down.
Johnny Electric So I’m going to give Mr. Alfredsson another shot at your title, Alison. At Rising Monarchy. And because you love to get involved in Alison’s affairs, Ashley? I’m making this a fatal four-way elimination match. Alison Williams will defend her championship against Johan Alfredsson…Ashley Matthews…and the man that you attacked earlier tonight…SEAN LIBBY!
Rick – YES! We are going to have a NEW CHAMPION at Rising Monarchy!
Matt – And since it’s an elimination match, Ashley and Alison will be FORCED to fight!
Johnny smiles as he heads to the back, as Ashley and Alison stand in the middle of the ring, shaking their heads.
The show cuts backstage, where Corey Casey is seen talking to a crew member.
Corey Casey Why, yes, I did beat Connor O’Shannon at the last show. Rick Christian tried to throw me the most vicious man he could find, and I made short work of him. How was that match?
Crew Member It was great, but…tonight, you’re a manager. Think Brandon and Ruben can beat Chuck and Vinnie?
Corey smirks, but before he can answer, Johnny Electric walks up.
Corey Casey Johnny! How’s it going, old buddy?
Johnny nods.
Johnny Electric Fine, fine…I hate to be the guy to deliver this message, but I’ve been told to inform you that you will not win the match against Chuck and Vinnie tonight.
Corey Casey And why is that?
Johnny Electric Because tonight, Chuck and Vincent will have Rick Christian in their corner. He told me to let you know. He…also wanted me to remind you that you’re an overrated, pathetic worm who’s debased himself to serving as Brandon’s cheerleader instead of stepping up and fighting every week.
Johnny slowly retreats, leaving Corey to stand, thinking for a moment. Before he can say anything else, the lights begin to flicker. A voice is heard, whispering throughout the arena.
“Face your fears…..Terrible horrors……the end……soon….Corey Casey….time is running out…”
Blackout.

The opening guitar strings of “Running from You” by Saving Abel is heard.
Dan walks out of the back and stops and looks around. He then continues down the ramp.
I say goodbye to the rearview mirror As a silhouette fades of you Well I hope you think that I'll be back someday, Someday I'll only be back just to leave you again Ooo, I've only come back just to leave you again and again I guess I'll never leave
He walks up the steps and steps into the ring.
I'm running from you Can I get any further away? It feels like the first time...I've been in love If I'm running from you Will you follow me down to the end? If I fall again, will you say goodbye? Will you say goodbye? Yeah yeah...
Dan stands in the middle of the ring and waits for his opponent.
The lights die out, only a few pale lights make the stage visible. Static fills the jumbo-tron and the lights die out, leaving the screen as the only light in the house briefly before accompanied by matching golden “Tron” lines border the screen and outline the stage and span down the ramp. Slowly the static fades out into an eight-pointed, spiked, barbed chaos star. Fans light lighters, open up their phones, shine small, handheld LCD lights, hell they sell them out at the merchandise stands for just this purpose. Basically the crowd starts looking like a Poison concert during “Every Rose has Its Thorn”; a thousand points of light in a nearly dark arena. Smoke comes up through the stage as the spiraling crescendo of the intro to Helloween’s “Perfect Gentleman” gradually fills the speakers. When the guitars hit, a huge Skeletal Dragon Flies up from the bottom of the screen and blows a gout of fire that seems to streak down the center of the ramp and ends in a blast of pyro from the ring posts that makes Kane cry.
Heather Thompson— And his opponent, Standing seven feet tall and weighing 315 pounds. from Blackrock Spire, he is the Black Crusader, the Black Dragon and he is the Insurgency Wrestling Federation High Impact Champion; STYGIAN!
Out walks Stygian from the back, slowly, deliberately, his long trench coat billowing slightly; the golden Templar Cross outline on his chest is lit up like Tron as are the Templar Cross buttons on his coat, and the huge Templar Cross on his back, visible as the camera on the stage circles around him. He makes his way to the edge of the ramp, his hands out, and up a set of stairs on either side of him comes Lilith and Lilah. He takes each of their hands and twirls them around until they wrap against his side and give the camera a sultry look. The girls finally untwine themselves from Stygian and he leads them down to ringside. Once there, Lilith steps in front of him, Lilah behind. Lilith runs her hands up his chest and down to his arms, and undoes the snaps at his wrist so Lilah can peel off the coat from behind, revealing the High Impact Title. Lilah hands the coat off, before she and Lilith move to either side of the apron and pull themselves up and do sexy little shimmies before striking a pose. They sit on the ropes and hold them apart. Stygian sets his feet and jumps up onto the ring apron from the floor ala Brock Lesnar, and steps through the ropes. A huge gold Templar Cross shines down on the ring form overhead. Stygian kneels in the middle of it, one fist pressed to the mat. Then he lifts that fist to the sky to a chorus of boos from the fans, and the lights come on and the music cuts. Stygian retreats to his corner, handing the ref the title and waiting for the bell. Rick—This is Dan Alexander’s first match in a month. A lot of rumors have swirled about Dan’s future in IWF. Rumors about retirement or departure. Dan looks like he’s in great shape. If he can beat Stygian here tonight, a High Impact Title match waits for him at Rising Monarchy.
Matt—Stygian looks mean. He looks like he did at New Years Evil.
Rick—A lot of people are still talking about that match. James Shark isn’t with us tonight; Stygian still has stitches in his forehead from that night. These two are circling, and the crowd is just waiting for them to lock up.
If Dan Alexander wins, he will get a shot at the High Impact Championship at Rising Monarchy Dan Alexander [vs] Stygian
[Ding Ding Ding!]
Stygian and Dan Alexander circle the ring, talking back and forth. Dan fakes a shot, Stygian stumbles back, and Dan laughs. Stygian looks less than amused. They circle some more. Stygian fakes a Spartan Kick, Dan ducks, and Stygian laughs. Dan’s turn to not look amused. They finally come together in the middle of the ring in a brief collar and elbow tie-up, and Stygian shoves him across the ring. Dan rolls through and shakes his head, like he should have known better. They tie up again, this time Dan ducks behind and executes a heel sweep. Stygian rolls away, shaking his head like he should know better. Stygian gets back to his feet.
Rick—Folks I don’t think you’ll ever find a more pure example of power versus technique. Stygian relies on his size and brute strength. He’s not without skill, but he’s nowhere in the same league with Dan Alexander on the mat.
The two come together in the middle of the ring. Dan goes for a lock up; Stygian punches him in the face.
Matt—Stygian can’t outwrestle Dan, so he won’t even try.
Stygian backs Dan into the ropes with a few right hands. Dan reverses an Irish Whip, leap-frogging Stygian on the rebound and catching him with an arm-drag hip toss on the second pass. Dan holds on to a rudimentary arm bar. Stygian reaches with his free arm, Dan tightens the hold. The ref checks in with Stygian about submitting, Stygian responds with an annoyed look. Stygian plants his hand on the mat and twists around, standing up and coming up with Dan in a hammer lock. Dan quickly reverses. Stygian responds with an elbow to the head, then another. Dan shoves him away. Stygian tries a discus clothesline; Dan ducks into a double leg shot and takes the big man over. He climbs into a mount and starts raining down punches on Stygian to a rousing ovation to the crowd while the ref counts 1…2…3…4…Dan breaks the mount and lets the ref sequester him away and admonish him for use of a closed fist. Matt—You ever notice that nobody ever actually gets disqualified for using a closed fist?
Rick—It’s a judgment call. If that rule was strictly enforced, we’d have every match end with a disqualification.
Stygian gets to his feet and rushes Dan, trying to avalanche him into the corner. Dan ducks out of the way and dropkicks Stygian into the turnbuckle. Stygian bounces out and Dan gives him a jumping knee to the gut and grabs a headlock. Stygian shoves him off into the corner and locks up with him. Since Dan’s touching the ropes the ref gets between them. Dan holds his hands up while the ref pries them apart. Stygian relaxes and puts his own hands up, smirking smugly and giving a clean break…for a split-second before he sticks a thumb in Dan’s eye, cheap-shots him and whips him to the far corner. Stygian charges in with a clothesline, sandwiching Dan into the corner. He follows it up with a series of heavy elbow strikes to Dan’s head. Dan slumps in the corner and Stygian soaks in the boos. Rick—Stygian has never met a cheap shot he didn’t like.
Matt—This is the first time anyone’s had an advantage in this match.
Rick—And it came from Stygian taking a short cut.
Matt—I swear this is a guy who likes to get booed.
Stygian stops showboating and turns back to Dan in the corner, hip tossing him out of it. Stygian runs out of the corner, changes directions while jumping over Dan, bounces off the ropes and hits a leg drop. Stygian rolls over for a cover. -1-
-2-
Rick—Out easily in two.
Stygian comes to his feet and pulls Dan up. He gives him a knee, and then lifts him up for a vertical suplex and holds…and holds…and holds…
Rick—What power from the High Impact Champion.
…and gives the Salt Lake crowd the finger…
Rick—Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand what disrespect.
…and finally drops Dan down. He covers. -1-
-2-
Kickout. Stygian gets to his feet and slaps his hands together three times. Rick—Stygian isn’t happy with the count here.
Matt—He shouldn’t be arguing with the referee though, he should be putting the boots to Dan Alexander.
Stygian gives up arguing with the ref and goes back to Dan. Rick—Inside cradle by Dan!
-1-

Rick—Stygian barely kicked out of that, and I mean barely. Both men to their feet now.
Stygian lunges for Dan, Dan baseball slides between his legs, pops up with a dropkick that staggers the big man, hits the ropes and puts Stygian back down to his knees with a shoulder block. Dan runs back to the ropes, comes back with a full head of steam and finally takes Stygian down with a spinning heel kick. Dan pumps his fist as he comes to his feet, bringing the crowd to life. Stygian staggers to a vertical base, Dan takes him over with a snapmare, hits the ropes and field goal kicks Stygian in the back.
Rick—Stygian is hurt after that one.
Dan drags Stygian up and Stygian shoves him back into the corner. Stygian charges, Dan jumps out at the last second and gives him a drop toe hold, Stygian goes face-first into the second turnbuckle and stays there. Dan gives him a roundhouse kick in the back. Stygian falls out of the corner writhing around in pain. Dan runs and springboards into a double-foot stomp in Stygian’s back. Rick—Dan Alexander “From Above”.
Matt—Cover!
-1-

Rick—No! Not enough. Stygian gets a shoulder up.
Dan pulls Stygian up to his feet and locks in a front face lock. He gator rolls Stygian one way, then he keeps the hold and does it right back again, then he drags him up and labors to take the big man over into a suplex. Dan rolls over and covers, but before the ref gets into position Stygian throws him off. Dan winds up on his feet first. He waits on Stygian and charges. Stygian throws him over the top rope, but Dan grabs the top rope and stays on the apron. Rick—Dan didn’t go to the floor, Stygian doesn’t see him!
Matt—Dude, you might want to turn around Stygian.
Stygian turns and sees Dan waiting. Stygian tries to grab him, Dan buries a shoulder in his stomach to drive him back, then he slingshots to the top rope and leaps off. Unfortunately Stygian catches him.
Rick—Uh oh.
Dan kicks his legs and tries to break free, only for Stygian to throw him over his head in a Front Fallaway Slam. Stygian sits up and smiles arrogantly for a few moments before getting to his feet and going after Dan. Stygian pulls Dan up and hits a short-arm clothesline. He keeps hold of the wrist and levels Dan with another. He keeps the wrist trapped and pulls Dan back up, but before he can back off and level Dan with a charging clothesline, Dan traps the arm. Rick—Arm Ripper! Arm Ripper!
Matt—Dan had that combo of Stygian’s scouted, but he can’t lock in the ‘Ripper. Stygian managed to swing around and grab the rope. He’s got a death grip on the rope, Dan can’t turn him over.
The referee intercedes to get Dan to let go of Stygian’s arm, getting in Dan’s face and waving him off; making him completely oblivious to a low blow from Stygian. The crowd boos as Dan doubles over and falls to the mat, and the ref looks at Stygian suspiciously. Rick—And another short cut from the High Impact Champion.
Matt—The ref can’t call what he doesn’t see. It’s Dan’s own fault.
Rick—How in the hell do you justify that?
Matt—Dan should have let go of the hold when Stygian got the rope.
Rick—That doesn’t give Stygian an excuse to cheat.
Matt—But it gave him the opportunity.
Stygian smiles to the crowd for a moment, and then he pulls Dan up and hits a side-slam backbreaker. Rick—Day of the Dragon. After the low blow that might be it.

Rick—Alexander gets a shoulder up!
Stygian argues with the ref again, livid that a cheap shot and a high-impact move didn’t finish Dan. He shakes his head and waits on Dan to get up. Dan’s still holding his lower back and he eats a Spartan Kick and winds up leaning on the middle rope, half out of the ring. Stygian backs up to the opposite ropes and hits the Light Rider, driving Dan down against that rope. Stygian lands on his feet outside the ring and throws a huge haymaker, but Dan dodges back into the ring with a backwards roll to his feet. Dan sprints and dives through the ropes, taking Stygian out and landing on his feet. Dan pumps his fist for a moment and then focus back on the task at hand. Dan hauls Stygian up, peppering him with right hands all the way. He snaps on a headlock and runs, bulldogging Stygian on the ring steps while clearing them himself. Dan gets to his feet quickly, turns and dropkicks the ring steps, sending Stygian rolling away on the mat. Dan rolls through the ring to break the count.
Rick—Dan Alexander is firmly in the driver’s seat now.
Matt—But he needs to be careful, Stygian is very dangerous out on the floor. Dan should get him back into the ring, where the referee can stop the Black Crusader. Just like Stygian can’t outwrestle Dan, Dan can’t out-dirty Stygian.
Dan goes to pull Stygian up, and Stygian spits red mist in his face.
Matt—Like I was saying…
Stygian stands up while Dan stumbles along the guardrail. Stygian grabs Dan by the hair and flings Dan into the padded safety wall. Rick—Stygian in and out of the ring to break the count.
Matt—The longer Stygian can keep Dan out here, the more trouble Dan is in.
Stygian stomps the hell out of Dan and then buries his foot in Dan’s throat, using the safety wall to keep his balance. The referee yells from the ring, Stygian blows him off and pulls Dan up by the wrist. He whips Dan into the side of the ring and drives a knee into his stomach and then he whips him into the safety wall and gives another knee. Finally Stygian throws him into the ring and follows him in. Cover. -1-

Foot on the rope. Stygian chokes Dan. The ref gets to four before Stygian tries another cover, hooking the leg this time. -1-

Shoulder up. Stygian gives the referee an annoyed glare. He shakes his head and stands, pulling Dan up with him. He whips Dan off the ropes. Dan ducks a clothesline, but Stygian catches him with a knee between the eyes coming back. Rick—Another big blow from the High Impact Champion, and folks you have to think this is just a matter of time now. Stygian covers.
-1-

Rick—Another kickout from Dan Alexander. He refuses to stay down. Stygian’s starting to get frustrated here. He’s directing traffic outside the ring.
Matt—Stygian is ordering Lilith and Lilah to pull up the mats outside the ring.
Rick—This isn’t going to be good for Dan Alexander.
Matt—But it’s great for us to watch them bend over in those skirts!
Rick—Folks…I am done apologizing for Matt Biggars…
Once Stygian is satisfied that the girls have followed his orders, he hauls Dan Alexander up and maneuvers him over to the ropes. Stygian points at the exposed concrete and lifts Dan up for a mere second before Dan squirms out of his grasp and when Stygian turns he gets caught in a harai goshi and dropped right on the back of his head.
Rick—What a judo toss!
Dan falls to the mat, still not quite with it. Stygian is rolling around holding his head.
Matt—It was pure instinct, Dan Alexander just saved the match, and maybe his career there, Stygian was going to hurl him out of the ring and onto the concrete. Who knows what kind of damage that would have done?
Stygian is over by his corner and talking to the girls again. Lilith goes to the timekeeper’s table and grabs the High Impact Title. She slides it in to him. Stygian cradles the belt to his chest, hiding it from Dan, who’s coming up behind him. Stygian explodes to his feet, swinging the belt at Dan’s head. Dan manages to dodge it and grab Stygian’s arm, he flips Stygian over and locks in the Arm Ripper.
Rick—Arm Ripper! Arm Ripper! Dan’s got it locked in, middle of the ring. There’s nowhere for Stygian to go! Dan’s going to Rising Monarchy.
Stygian flops around trying to roll, but Dan isn’t having any of it. He tries to get to the ropes, but even his length can’t save him. Stygian tries to turn into Dan’s body and throw some punches, but there’s nothing behind them, Dan forces him back down to the mat. Stygian looks around for any sort of a way out and doesn’t see one. The ref is right there by him, but suddenly Lilah climbs onto the ring apron and tries to step through the ropes. The ref has to go over to head her off right as Stygian taps. Rick—Stygian tapped! Stygian tapped!
Matt—The ref didn’t see it!
Rick—Turn around ref!
Lilah is still fighting to get into the ring when Lilith steps out of her heels and climbs in, taking up the dropped High Impact Title. She tip toes up behind Dan who lets go of the hold and turns around to face her. Lilith drops the title and falls on her ass. Dan points out of the ring, and Lilith decides that might be for the best. Dan throws the belt out of the ring. Rick—What’s Stygian doing with his glove? Is he digging out a weapon?
Matt—I don’t know. It looks like he undid the Velcro.
Stygian drops back to the mat. Dan turns around about the time the referee has finally run Lilah off. Dan grabs Stygian’s arm and locks the hold back in, sinking it deep. Dan wrenches back on the hold…and is completely surprised when Stygian’s glove comes off in his hand. Stygian turns into Dan, pulling his arm free, getting his feet under him and picking Dan up as he stands. Stygian shifts Dan up into a gorilla press, but Dan kicks and twists and gets out of danger. Dan tries to rush Stygian from behind, but Stygian gives him a low bridge. Again Dan lands on the ring apron, but before he can do anything, Lilah grabs his ankle. Dan’s only inconvenienced a moment to pull free. The referee leans out of the ring and starts yelling at Lilith. Meanwhile, Lilah pulls a set of brass knuckles out of her cleavage and tosses it to Stygian. Dan Alexander slingshots to the top rope, springboards into the ring, and gets belted with the brass knuckles.
Rick—Oh, son of a bitch, not like this!
Stygian tosses the knuckles out of the ring.
Matt—There’s Lilah collecting the evidence.
The ref turns around just in time to see Stygian lift Dan up and nail the Baneblade. Rick—I don’t know why Stygian bothered with the Baneblade, it’s a formality.

Heather Thompson - Here is your winner: Stygian.
Rick—Dammit. Dan Alexander got screwed. He had Stygian in the middle of the ring, Stygian taps, the ref doesn’t see it, then Stygian finally manages to steal this win and screw Dan out of a High Impact Title match.
The ref raises Stygian’s hand as “Perfect Gentleman” plays. Stygian holds up the High Impact title with the other hand and the crowd lets him have it. Rick—This sold out Salt Lake crowd is letting Stygian know what they think of him here tonight.
Matt—It’s not like Lilith did them any favors with the way they opened the show either.
Rick—Now what’s he doing?
The music stops as Stygian starts rummaging under the ring. He pulls out a table, then two, and he directs Lilith and Lilah to set them up while he gets back under the ring. Rick—This isn’t going to be good. This is starting to look like New Year’s Evil. James Shark is sitting at home this week because of Stygian playing with tables.
Matt—And Stygian just grabbed a roll of barb wire and some gloves.
Stygian has a pair of Kevlar-palmed gloves so he can bend the barbwire into loops and stretch it out over the topmost table. He works it so that the barb-wire is sticking up in loops from the table’s surface.
Rick—Dan Alexander hasn’t moved since Stygian hit him with those brass knuckles, and how he’s setting up a table and some barb wire. We need some help out here for Dan Alexander, he’s defenseless and I don’t like what Stygian’s got in mind.
Stygian digs back under the ring and pulls out a gas can.
Rick—I really don’t like what’s going on here. Can we get security or someone out here to help Dan Alexander before this maniac…
Rick’s voice trails off as Stygian pours gasoline all over both tables. He looks under the ring again, and grabs a blowtorch with a trigger-style end.
Rick—Someone needs to come out here and stop this right now! Stygian has doused those tables in gasoline, covered them with barbwire and now he’s lit them on fire.
The crowd has sort of a shocked hush over it as Stygian slides into the ring and drags Dan Alexander to his feet. Dan is still out as Stygian pulls him over to the corner and sets him up on the top turnbuckle. Stygian steps through the ropes and onto the apron. The crowd draws in a breath as Stygian hoists Dan up into gorilla press position. Matt—This is what he did to James Shark…
Rick—The hell it is! This is worse. OH MY GOD!
Stygian steps out until he’s lined up with the stack of tables, and he Baneblades Dan Alexander through them. The crowd makes a noise that could be at first mistaken for a cheer, but it becomes clear as Dan is driven through the flaming lumber that it’s shock and fear. When they hit, Stygian and Dan both roll separate ways, out of the fire. Lilith douses Stygian with one fire extinguisher, a group of officials running from the back put Dan out. Dan’s still wrapped in the barb wire, bleeding badly, and not moving.
Rick—Sweet fucking Christ! It smells like burnt flesh and gasoline out here. Dan Alexander is a bloody mess, and look at that sick fucking smile! Stygian is so pleased with himself!
Stygian moves over to where the IWF crew has sequestered Dan Alexander. They all hold up their hands, really hoping they can deter him more than expecting to be able to. Stygian looks at the downed man and laughs. Lilith and Lilah grab his arms and lead him away, past the medical team running down to ringside. Stygian stops at the top of the ramp and holds his arms up triumphantly as the crowd boos the living hell out of him. Stygian finally leaves. Back at ringside, the EMTs have rolled Dan over and are cutting him out of the barbwire. Once that’s done, they take great care to put one of those hard neck braces on him. Then they carefully lift him and slide a backboard into place. They buckle him in, strap-by-strap as the stunned Salt Lake crowd looks on in silence. One of the EMTs runs halfway up the ramp and meets the team wheeling a gurney down to the ringside area. They set up, someone counts to three and they transfer Dan to the gurney. He’s still unconscious when they lock up the gurney and wheel it up the ramp and out of the arena.
Rick—Fans we’re going to take a commercial break. We’ll bring you more information on Dan Alexander’s condition as it becomes available.
-------------------------------------------
The IWF would like to show fans it's support behind the Denver Tebows, as they continue to do God's bidding by beating the Steelers tomorrow.
-------------------------------------------
Battle Grounds returns from commercial and pans over the crowd. The arena is silent as they wait to see what’s going to come next.
”Welcome to the Gun Show!”
The crowd erupts into boos as Vincent Van Rose makes his way out onto the entrance ramp. He walks down the entrance ramp as his song continues to play, and the crowd continues to boo. Matt – Didn’t Vinnie get released?
Rick – Have you never heard of re-signing?
Vincent Van Rose climbs into the ring, with a microphone in his hand. He smirks as the crowd boos.
Vincent Van Rose Boy it’s fucking great to be back!
The crowd boos loudly as Vincent Van Rose laughs Vincent Van Rose It’s been a while since I’ve stepped foot in this ring. But there’s a reason I’m back. And don’t worry; it’s not because of you guys. No, the reason I’m back is because I need to save the IWF Championship. I need to save it from the disgrace of a man who currently holds the title. That’s right, I’m talking about Brandon Macdonald.
The crowd cheers at the mention of his name, as Vincent Van Rose looks angry Vincent Van Rose This man constantly trashes the IWF. He acts as if he and Corey Casey are the only two worthy men in the IWF. And that everyone else is useless. These are not the actions of a champion. The IWF is a great company, and it deserves a real champion.
”Sorry For Party Rockin’”
Brandon Macdonald walks out onto the stage, with a microphone in hand. Corey Casey stands behind him. Both men are laughing. Brandon Macdonald A real champion? I hope you’re not going to say ‘A real champion like me’. Please tell me you weren’t going to say that
Vincent Van Rose As a matter of fact, I was
Brandon Macdonald and Corey Casey start to laugh even harder. Brandon Macdonald Dude, stop! You’re making me laugh too hard. Vincent Van Rose as a real champion? Come on man! That’s just too much!
Brandon and Corey make their way down the ramp laughing and high fiving some of the fans. Brandon Macdonald Dude, Vinnie, maybe you forget it, maybe all these fans forget it, but if I can recall correctly, the last time you were IWF Champion, you lost to the New Blood Champion twice, and then lost to Robbie Hart in embarrassingly quick fashion. Now I may not make many friends backstage as champion, but at least I, you know, win matches. I don’t get pinned by show openers.
Vincent Van Rose You got a reason you’re here Macdonald?
Brandon Macdonald Yeah, actually, I do. You see, last week, Corey and I decided that Upper Limit was not being run properly. That Carmine was not doing enough as a leader to make us as successful as we should be. So we decided it was time for him to go. It just so happened that Chuck Matthews decided that he no longer appreciated the group of people who came from the place that made him. So he left, and forcefully took Jason Hawk with him. That threw a wrench into our plans a bit, but no matter. Corey and I decided to get rid of Carmine regardless, and run the team ourselves.
Vincent Van Rose What’s your point?
Brandon Macdonald Well I’m getting there. If you stopped interrupting me, than maybe we’d all get to hear it, okay? Just sit back and listen to a real wrestler. You should feel honoured that you’re in the same ring as someone like myself. Anyways. Corey and I thought about it, and we decided to replace Chuck in our group. With someone who seems to have as much beef with him as Corey and I do. Ladies and gentlemen, the newest member of Upper Limit…
The lights go out as the opening strain of 'Firebreather' by Thrice plays out over the speakers. They burst back on, accompanied by a wall of flame at the top of the ramp as the song kicks in, revealing Ruben Ricardo León sat on the stage, cross legged, his head bowed.
As the lyrics begin, he slowly lifts himself to his feet and stares at the ring, a look of pure concentration in his eyes.
Tell me are you free Tell me are you free In word or thought or deed Tell me are you free While the gallows stand
He begins to walk to the ring at a measured pace, never moving his gaze from the people in the ring in front of him
And bullets lance the bravest lungs We fold our hands and hold our tongues
At the bottom of the ramp, he stops briefly and shakes his body to loosen the muscles.
Tell me are you free When the fear falls in you Tell me are you free When the fear falls in you
Ruben climbs the steps to the ring and through the middle rope before moving over to the far turnbuckle. He climbs it, stares in to the crowd for a couple of seconds, and then suddenly roars, throwing his arms out to the side, causing red, white and green pyrotechnics to explode from the three other turnbuckles.
And bullets lance the bravest lungs Will I fold my hands or hold my tongue
Finally, he leaps backwards off the turnbuckle, backflipping and landing in the centre of the ring. Brandon Macdonald Ruben Ricardo Leon ladies and gentlemen.
The crowd cheers a bit, as Ruben stares at Vincent Van Rose across from him Brandon Macdonald Now now Vincent, it’s time for you to move along. Let the big boys have their match.
Vincent Van Rose Well the jokes on you Brandon, because I am Chuck’s mystery partner tonight! I’m in the match against you!
Brandon Macdonald Are you serious? Please tell me he’s not serious Corey. Someone tell me, please
Rick – Oh he’s serious all right
Matt – LOL SRSLY?
Cast out the storm in my head I've tripped and fell in Caught in my conscience again I try to push it away
[/b]World to Burn by Rev Theory plays throughout the arena. The camera focuses on the jumbotron, where Chuck’s smirking face is seen, before it’s engulfed in a shadow, showing only his sunken eyes and wicked smile. The camera pans down to the entrance curtain for a moment. Finally, Chuck Matthews emerges, looking at the ring. He faces the ring, wearing a smirk identical to his big screen counterpart.
In case you forget I'll boldly just let it all fade Search the silence I can't believe all the lies that you tell me I break
Chuck stops halfway down the ramp and looks to the booing crowd. He raises his hands in his signature old-style cornas. Fireworks erupt in a line behind him, firing back and forth for a moment.
This is the world that you burn. This is the life that you waste. How does it feel on your own, now that you're pushing me away?
Ruben Ricardo Leon immediately runs out of the ring and begins to brawl with Chuck Matthews. The two men continue to brawl as Brandon Macdonald and Vincent Van Rose stare down in the middle of the ring. Rick Christian Stop this at once!
All five men stare at Rick as he climbs onto the announcer’s table with a microphone in hand. Rick Christian This is getting out of hand. Referees get down here, this match starts now!
Rick Christian climbs off the table and walks over to his corner. A few referees run down the ramp and separate Chuck Matthews and Ruben Ricardo Leon. The two men go to their corners, and discuss strategy. Brandon Macdonald and Chuck Matthews start in the ring. The referee calls for the bell Matt – But who is going to announce with me?
Muamba – Yo dog, I got yo’ back!
Matt – Hai Kalvin!
