Cutting to the announce booth Tom Foolery and Preston Poppycock sit primed and ready to being the show. As the crowd continues to cheer and fight to get their signs seen by the cameras Tom Foolery starts us off.
Tom Foolery Welcome ladies and gentlemen to IWF's premier pay-per-view FROM THE ASHES...THREE! Tonight on IWF's grandest stage we are live from Yankee Stadium setting records with both attendance and being the FIRST wrestling promotion to hold an event here at the new Yankee Stadium.
Preston Poppycock The good ol' outdoors mate and I've got chills, not from the wind but from the excitement. Tonight is IWF's grand ball, the big dance, the grandest stage! I can 'ardly contain meself.
Tom Foolery Sean Libby is back and he takes on a returning Chuck Matthews, both men have had the world buzzing since the match was booked. We also get to see the boss Alex Dillinger in the ring once again as he takes on his former friend Damien Drake. Corey Bull against Aries for the Rising Phoenix Championship, Flex against Blyss for the High Impact Championship...two stacked titles matches.
Preston Poppycock Let us not forget that the match is a ladder match and Flexerio only touched a ladder in 'is last match.
Tom Foolery That is true Preston. The card is full of great matches. Parker Wayde goes against Sah'ta Thor in a submission match, Storming Raven takes Tim Patrick on a Trail of Tears, Griffin Hawkins and Jason Gabriel will attempt to tear each other's heads off inside a steel cage...but let us not forget the main event of the evening when Brandon Macdonald takes on Gordon Fury in a two out of three falls match for the IWF Championship!
*CROWD POPS*
Preston Poppycock Oi I dunno about you Tommy me boy but I'm ready to get things started off tonight!
Tom Foolery You and me both Preston, let's send it down to our new ring announcer Hope Cassidy. We'd also like to thank Heather Thompson and congratulate her on her new journey as a mother.
The camera cuts to the ring as Hope prepares to announce the next match.
Hope Cassidy The following triple threat contest is scheduled for one fall!
The arena lights go out as “Feuer Frei!” By Rammstien kicks up. A purple light fills the arena as the lyrics start.
Getadelt wird wer Schmerzen kennt vom Feuer das die Haut verbrennt
A figure walks on stage from the back. He is covered in a black cloak. He stands with his arms crossed in front of him as the song continues.
Hope Cassidy Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 245 pounds… Ashe Corrrrrvvvviiinnn!
Ich werf ein Licht in mein Gesicht Ein heißer Schrei Feuer frei!
[Bang! Bang!]
And as those words are spoken pyros go off in unison with them and the figure throws the hood of the cloak to reveal none other than Ashe Corvin. He stands there posed as if he is the greatest person in existence. The crowd pours hate over him and he just grins. He slowly walks to the ring, trash talking to the fans and even a camera along the way.
He slides into the ring and stands in the center posing once more.
Geadelt ist wer Schmerzen kennt vom Feuer das in Lust verbrennt Ein Funkenstoß in ihren Schoß Ein heißer Schrei Feuer frei!
He spins around looking out at the crowd with a look of smug satisfaction on his face. He holds his hands out to the side and looks up at the rafters as Pyro goes off in unison with the last words of the song heard.
[Bang! Bang!]
The lights flicker as a loud gong sounds. His theme fades as "Bad to the bone" plays over the speakers, Frank Finelli walks out from behind the curtain. The fans greet him with a chorus of boos and jeers as he stands there for a moment soaking in the hatred towards him and he cracks a smirk as he starts to walk to the ring.
Hope Cassidy And the opponents, first, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 285 pounds… Frank Fineeeellllliiii!
The booing and jeering continues as he gets closer to the ring and some fans hurl objects at him along with the insults. He swats a plastic bottle back into the crowd as it comes near him and slowly ascends the ring steps and climbs into the ring. He mounts the turnbuckles and trash talks the fans and then dismounts as black and gold pyro goes off high above the ring. he stands and leans on the turnbuckle in his corner as he keeps an eye on Ashe, awaiting the final opponent. His theme fades out, before the opening notes of "I Like It" by Lacuna Coil begin to play as the flickering stops. From behind the back steps Lu Chen who has head bowed and arms folded in front of her. She starts down the ramp slowly as if she were a Buddhist monk. At halfway down the ramp Lu Chen throws her head up and tosses off the kimono in a theatrical gesture.
Hope Cassidy And on her way to the ring, from Hong Kong, China, weighing in at 127 pounds… Kyyyuuuuubiiii!
While the kimono hits ground Lu Chen runs the rest of the way to the ramp and jump slides under the bottom rope. She quickly stands up and walks to the center of the ring where she lifts her arms. She slowly lowers her arms which causes lotus petals to fall over the fans.
He then goes to his corner and waits for the match to start.
TRIPLE THREAT MATCH Ashe Corvin [vs] Kyuubi [vs] Frank Finelli
Before anyone can react, Frank charges out of his corner straight at Kyuubi, knocking her head almost completely off her shoulders with a huge clothesline. Kyuubi rolls out of the ring to avoid further punishment, and Ashe capitalises on the distraction, running up and nailing a jumping forearm smash to the back of Frank’s head. Ashe starts laying into Frank with punches, and while Frank slightly recoils from each punch, he stands his ground. Ashe gets frustrated and runs back into the ropes, before charging at Frank with a clothesline, but Frank knocks him right on his arse with a huge shoulder block.
Tom Foolery Ashe trying to get the upper hand by attacking behind, but it obviously didn’t work!
Preston Poppycock All it did get ‘im knocked on ‘is fooking arse!
Ashe get back to his feet before Frank rocks him with two uppercuts to the mid section, before nailing him with a vertical suplex. He floats over into the cover.
1!
Ashe kicks out just after one. Frank picks him back up and and whips Ashe into a corner as hard as he can, sending Ashe’s head whiplashing as his spine hits the turnbuckle, and he faceplants into the ground. Frank doesn’t move in yet though, as he waits for Ashe to get back to his feet. Frank then charges in at Ashe, but just before he connects Ashe gets both knees up, driving them into Frank’s chest. Frank stumbles back and Ashe springboards out of the corner with a jumping back heel kick, taking Frank down. As Frank tries to get to his feet, Ashe just rains vicious punches down on his head. Frank shoves Ashe away from him, but Ashe comes right back in. As he does, Frank reaches up with his right hand and grabs Ashe by the throat, his eyes going wide. Out of desperation Ashe rans his thumb into Frank’s eye, before stomping on the back of his right knee. Ashe then sprints into the ropes, before running back at Frank and nailing him with a shining wizard, and he falls to the mat. Ashe with the cover.
1!
2!
Just after 2 Frank powers out of the cover, throwing Ashe off of him. Ashe goes back on the attack again, but Frank fights back with punches to the midsection, before both men start trading shots. Frank gets the upperhand of the exchange, but as he goes for a huge haymaker, Ashe blocks it, before nailing Frank in the midsection with a spinning back kick, before rotating into a spinning enzuigiri, cracking Frank in the head, stunning him. Ashe then grabs his head, and spikes him with a DDT! The cover!
1!
2!
Frank fires his shoulder off the canvas at 2.
Tom Foolery What a combination of moves by Ashe, he nearly had him there!
Preston Poppycock Frank is a fookin beat Tom. It will take more than that to keep ‘im down for 3!
Ashe looks frustrated as he argues with the ref. On the opposite side of the ring, Kyuubi has been keeping an eye on this match, but still has not made any moves to get back in the ring. Ashe signals for the end as Frank gets back up, as he doubles him over with a kick to the midsection. Ashe then tries to hook his arms for the Glorifier, but he can’t quite link his hands. Before Ashe realises what is going on, Frank hoists Ashe onto his shoulders, before driving him to the mat with a death valley driver! Frank goes for the cover!
1!
2!
KICKOUT!
Ashe throws his shoulder up just before the 3, and Frank has a wild look in his eyes as he gets back to his feet, pulling Ashe up with him. He lifts Ashe over his head into a military press, and holds him there as if he weighed nothing. Frank then steps forward, letting Ashe crash to the mat. He then picks Ashe up again, before firing him across the ring into the ropes, and as he comes back Frank grabs him and plants him with a thundering spinebuster! Frank roars as he stalks Ashe, but he doesn’t notice Kyuubi climbing the turnbuckle.
Tom Foolery Check out Kyuubi on the outside of the ring, she has been playing possum this whole time!
Preston Poppycock My kinda strategy Tom, sit back at let ‘em fight each other.
Tom Foolery She’s going up top!
Kyuubi leaps off the top rope, nailing Frank with a missile dropkick, the momentum sending him rolling out of the ring. Kyuu bi turns back to Ashe, only to get blasted in the temple with a step up enzuigiri! Ashe then doubles Kyuubi over, hooks the arms, and drills her into the canvas with The Glorifier! The cover!
1!
2!
3!
[DING! DING! DING!]
Hope Cassidy Here is your winner… Ashe Corrrrrvviiinnnn!
Tom Foolery Ashe out of nowhere snatching victory from the jaws of defeat! What a match!
Preston Poppycock Frank ‘ad this match one, and had Kyuubi not interfered, it could have been a completely different outcome.
Tom Foolery Fair point Preston, but Ashe is our winner, and a deserving one at that.
“Feuer Frei!” By Rammstien plays through the arena again as the ref raises Ashe’s hand in victory. Frank just stares at what happened in the ring with pure rage, before turning his back and storming up the apron. The cameras cut away.

Hope Cassidy This next match is scheduled for one fall and is a DOG COLLAR MATCH! Introducing first….
The light's in the arena slowly dim and then they go completely out and the sound of static is heard coming from the speakers. A spotlight shines down on the entrance ramp.
I'm just a thorn in your side, the disrespect in your eye I can't control myself I'm like a snake in your drain, I'm takin' over your brain Cause I can't help myself
Jack Savage struts out onto the stage holding a Halliburton Briefcase and points to himself. He quickly drops down to one knee
Every time I turn my head I can hear everything that's said I know they wish I'd go away
Jack stays there on one knee and eats up the hatred of the fans.
Hope Cassidy Making his way to the ring, from Greenbay Wisconsin, weighing in at 230 pounds, he is the King of Title Town, JACK SAVAGE!
Here I am again, hey now, hey now I'm the mutherfucker of the year Here I am again, hey how, hey now I'm the mutherfucker of the year
Jack gets off his knee and keeps on strutting down the ramp.
Call me the jackal in heat, the blackest cat on the street You better watch yourself A hand grenade with no pin, a razor blade goin' in I'm goin' straight to hell
Jack reaches the steeps and lifts the Halliburton Briefcase high into the air.
Every time I turn my head I can hear everything that's said I know they wish I'd going away
Jack enters the ring and struts over to the turnbuckles on the fair side of the ring once again raising the briefcase high in the air.
Here I am again, hey now, hey now I'm the mutherfucker of the year Here I am again, hey now, hey now I'm the mutherfuckeher of the year
Jack drops down and walks to the center of the the ring setting the briefcase in front of himself.
Here I am again, hey now, hey now I'm the murherfucker of the year
Jack the climbs back up the turnbuckle and keeps point to him self as the lights go back on.
Hope Cassidy And his opponent…
Fetid simulation of this wretched congregation Disciples of the fallen and the heretic will rise
The entrance ramp to GEW is bathed in an eerie green light as "Parasitic" by Psyclon Nine plays over the PA.
Narcissistic nation Severed tongues of blind dictation The serpent spoke this unto me through gilded light and lunacy
Astryd Thorn: Representing The Sisterhood, from the Sin City, Las Vegas Nevada.
Savannah appears onstage.
Taste the fury That feed the devils inside Fueled by torment Sin, sex, sickness and pride Parasite submission Parasitic condition Parasite slave culture Parasite it's over
Astryd Thorn: Ladies and gentlemen, the Wild Cat, SAVANNNNAAAAHH!!
Her mind's obviously on the hard task ahead. She steps up to the ring then steps and into the ring, takes a neutral corner, and [stares down/waits for] her opponent, ready to fight.
Tom Foolery Here we go, a good old dog collar match. Neither person will have any place to run from their opponent.
Preston Poppycock Tis true mate, this will be a fight and nothing short of it.
The ref puts the dog collar around Savage’s neck then does the same to Savannah. As soon as the collar snaps in place Savage yanks the chain forcing Savannah closer, he wraps the chain around his hand and slams it into Savannah’s face to knock her to the ground all in one fluid motion.
Tom Foolery Savage making use of the steel chain before the bell can even sound.
Preston Poppycock Well you know mate it’s no DQ and ‘e just made the first move, beat ‘er to the punch in more ways than one.
Tom Foolery Cheap shots are cheap shots no matter how you slice it.
Savage mounts Savannah with his fist still wrapped in chain, he starts punching Savannah in the head. The ref starts yelling something at Jack but he doesn’t pay him any attention. Jack gets up and holds his arms up in the air sparking a few booing fans. Savannah suddenly flicks the chain so it wraps around Jack’s foot then uses it to yank Jack’s feet out from under him. Once down Savannah wraps the chain around Jack’s neck and starts choking him while bashing his face into the mat.
Tom Foolery Now Savannah is showing Jack she can be just as brutal, just as fierce and just as painful as Jack can be.
Preston Poppycock But few people ‘ave yet to learn this lesson, Jack isn’t going to be one of those people by the end of this night regardless of the outcome.
Savannah lets go of Jack and drags him to his feet, she slams Jack in the gut with a hard knee before whipping him at the ropes. Jack suddenly grabs a handful of the chain and leaps over the top rope landing on his feet at ringside, however the chain goes taught and yanks Savannah into the top rope for a modified top rope stun gun. Savannah drops down and Jack climbs onto the aprons and yanks the top rope spring boarding Savannah back into the center of the ring.
Tom Foolery What use of the dog collar and chain, these two are the kind you don’t want to be in one of these types of matches with one of these types of wrestlers…
Preston Poppycock Say again? I’m confused
Tom Foolery Nevermind.
Jack leaps off the top rope and goes for a leg drop but at the last instant Savannah rolls out of the way and Jack hits nothing but mat, Savannah then makes use of the chain to wrap it around Jack’s leg then step over it and lift it up into a half-Boston crab with the chain.
Tom Foolery Nice submission move from Savannah utilizing the chain in such a way!
Preston Poppycock Oi she’s proving ‘er worth ‘ere tonight but I wouldn’t count Jacky boy out.
Jack yells out in pain then rolls out of it and reverses it into a single leg Indian deathlock. Savannah slams her fist into the mat and grits her teeth the pain evident of her face, she then slowly turns her body and eventually flips the move over and stands up holding Jack’s foot with a sharpshooter.
Tom Foolery We’re seeing a lot of good technical wrestling from these two, we might just see someone tap.
Preston Poppycock I like seeing someone tap out. I once made your mum tap out from the Big PP Cobra Clutch.
Tom Foolery MY MOTHER IS A SAINT!
Jack pushes himself up on his hands and grits his teeth before reaching out and grabbing the ropes. The ref calls for a rope break and Savannah lets go, unfortunately for her the chain was still wrapped around Jack’s leg and during all the reversals was also wrapped around Savannah, Jack yanks his leg up towards his body and pulls Savannah’s body out from under him sending her head first into the mat.
Tom Foolery Ouch, you know Savannah’s feeling that one, you gotta keep an eye on that chain when it comes to these matches.
Jack untangles himself as Savannah does the same, they both get to their feet at the same time and start trading blows, Jack suddenly ducks a left and grabs Savannah by the head and tosses her over the ropes only to grab the chain and leave Savannah Dangling midway choking her.
Tom Foolery Oh my god, Savage just hung Savannah cross from the top rope, she’s dangling by her neck!
Preston Poppycock She’s turnin blue mate!
Savannah grabs the dog collar and ties to ease the pressure on her neck. She slowly starts to choke as her legs thrash less and less.
Preston Poppycock I don’t get it why doesn’t she just pull off the collar, and why won’t the ref call it as a choke?
Tom Foolery Remember this is a dog collar match, if he takes it off he’s DQed, plus there’s no rules...other than that. So as long as you’ve got the dog collar on you can do pretty much whatever you want.
Savannah’s legs are barely moving as she grows weaker, she suddenly starts up again, using energy from some reserve tank somewhere and pushes herself up slightly before getting her feet up on the aprons. She holds her throat and breathes heavily as she regains her breath, Jack won’t let her though, he yanks the chain and drags Savannah over the top rope. Savannah hits the mat hard and Jack quickly goes for an elbow drop, but Savannah’s quicker and rolls out of the way.
Tom Foolery This could be the turning point.
Preston Poppycock As I said before don’t count Jacky out!
Savannah seems to be over it, because she quickly gets to her feet then drags Jack to his, she tries to whip Jack into the ropes but Jack reverses the whip only to have Savannah use the momentum to hit a diving shoulder tackle that knocks Jack off his feet.
Tom Foolery Savannah just exploded from nowhere with that diving shoulder tackle that look like it knocked Jack back to last Tuesday!
Preston Poppycock Well it seems like last Tuesday is a better place for Jack to be right now anyway, look at Savannah firing up…This doesn’t look good come on boy-o get going!
Savannah gets up and lets out a scream of victory, she turns and kicks Savage in the gut as she tries to get but before dragging him up and attempting a DDT. Savannah gets up again and holds her fist in the air before dragging Savage to his feet. She whips Savage to the ropes then goes for a clothesline but Jack ducks under it and catching her arm into a half nelson and goes for a crossover but Savannah manages to spin under it and grab Jack’s head locking into a reverse suplex position. She screams something out as she can’t quite lift Savage up. Releasing the suplex she drops down and takes Savage down to the mat hitting her opponent with some nice ground and pound. After feeling she’s done enough she climbs to the second rope waiting for Savage to get to his feet. She lunges from the second rope as Savage stands up and spears Savage right in half. Savage’s head snaps back violently as he’s entire body crumples after the move. Savannah makes the cover.
One…
Two…
THREE!
[DING DING DING]
Hope Cassidy: Here is your winner...SAVANNAH!!!!
Tom Foolery What an awesome match, I can’t wait for more action tonight. The Wildcat Savannah hits the pounce on Savage earning her a win tonight
Preston Poppycock Aye she was the better man tonight, indeedy.
Commotion is heard through the arena as John Tolly runs down the ramp and slides under the bottom rope. Jack is still lying on the mat after that impact of Savannah’s last move. The Dog Collar has been taken off of his neck and is lying next to him. Tolly looks down at him with a smile.
Tom Foolery What in the world is John Tolly doing out here!?
Preston Poppycock Well we all know that Jack and John went up a ‘ill...wait wrong story. They used to tag team together well not women but in the ring...wrestling...tag team wrestling...champions. I’ll stop now.
Tom Foolery Yes you’re quite right Preston they used to be America’s Most Hated and have won their share of tag team gold. It’s no secret that Jack doesn’t like John and the feeling are mutual. I think John is out here to show that he should’ve been showcased at From the Ashes instead of his former partner.
Savannah looks at Tolly who sits on the middle rope holding it open for her allowing her to exit before he begins his onslaught on Savage. Just then Savage springs up and gets a handful of chain rushing Savannah and clubbing her in the back. Tolly shoves Jack and the two stare each other down.
Tom Foolery Kick his rear end John!
Preston Poppycock Punch that bloody twat in the face...pow right in the kissa Jack just ‘it ‘im already!
Savannah gets back up and stands beside John the both of them ripping into Savage who slowly begins to back up grinning and holding his hands up like “easy now”. John whips around in a one eighty motion cracking Savannah in the throat with a strong armed lariat that turns her inside out.
*CROWD BOOS*
Savage cracks a smile as does John. They start putting the boots to Savannah John brings her up to her feet and both men pick her up putting her down on the top rope. Savage wraps his left arm around her head as Tolly wraps his right arm around her head. They stand on the second rope side by side before throwing her up and slamming her down to the mat with a vicious double top rope DDT. Savannah’s head crashes on the mat as she appears to be completely out.
*CROWD BOOS*
Tom Foolery What in the h-e-double hockey sticks is going on! Are they back!?
Preston Poppycock Blood ‘ell this is BRILLIANT MATE!!!!
Savage and Tolly raise their arms up in the air as the America’s Most Hated entrance music begins to play. The crowd boos them loudly as each man continues to grin before we fade to black.
Coming back from a quick IWF website ad. Joining Hope in the center of the ring she stands ready to announce the next match.
Hope Cassidy This next match is scheduled for ONE FALL and is for the RISING PHOENIX CHAMPIONSHIP! Introducing first…
("Crush Em" by Megadeth starts to beat throughout the arena as the lights go dark and turn red at the stage. Out walks the sliver masked monster and he stands, his head lowered)
Enter the arena and hit the lights Step up now you're in for a ride This is war, ain't no fun and games We get it up, you go down in flames
(The music slows and Bull walks to the ring with a purpose, flinging off his shirt and sliding in under the rope to stand in the middle of the ring.)
Party time, going down You better not mess us around The stakes are rich, take a hit or stay The price is high, someone's gonna pay
Hope Cassidy Making his way to the ring from the Great Northwoods of Michigan weighing in at 355lbs...COREY BULL!!!
(Bull raises his hands up above his head in an X shape and the ramp explodes in a mushroom cloud and fire blasts up around the ramp.)
Heads I win, tails you lose Out of my way I'm coming through Roll the dice don't think twice And we crush (crush), crush 'em (crush 'em)
(Bull climbs a turnbuckle and stares out at the crowd)
Looking for trouble, now you've found it You're a drum and we're gonna pound it Last one standing wins the fight Hear us scream and shout all night Down on the floor and eat the grit This is gonna hurt a little bit
(Bull climbs down and focuses on the task at hand)
Hope Cassidy And his opponent…
As the odd tunes of I Am The Walrus ignites over the P.A. system, the audience instantly begins to throw a fit. Their jeers only grow louder as Aries makes his grand entrance from behind the curtain, arms spread wide open for the world to take in his glory, he belt strapped around his waist. He pauses at the top of the stage for a moment, removing his title from around his waist as he proudly holds it above his head his head bobbing back and forth as he inaudibly shouts to nobody but himself before finally taking off toward the ring.
Hope Cassidy making his way to the ring from Windsor, Ontario, Canada weighing in at 225lbs...he is the IWF Rising Phoenix Champion...ARIES ARMADAIST!!!
Making a point to mostly ignore the sea of booing fans, title in hand, Aries suddenly cocks his fist back and bolts toward the one fan who happens to get their out stretched hand the closest to him, pointing and cackling at their humiliation as the jump back at his sudden movements. Once he finally swaggered his way to the ring, Aries wastes no time in entering and taking the center of the squared circle, managing to incite more anger out of the audience as he holds his title above his head once again, displaying it with a proud smirk before retreating back into his corner.
The referee turns and hands the title off to the timekeeper. The timekeeper turns and walks it over to his seat before glancing up at the referee. Corey and Aries hardly take their eyes off each other and the referee calls for the bell.
The crowd roars and Corey and Aries continue to look at each other as they start to move towards each other in the middle of the ring. They stand nose to nose as both men trade some words before suddenly Corey attempts a hard right, but Aries Armadaist blocks it and then nails Corey with a hard right of his own. He then nails him with another and another before kicking him in the ribs. He then grabs him and goes to send him into the ropes, but Corey spins through and sends Aries into the ropes. Corey turns and grabs Aries on the rebound and goes to send him up and over the top rope, but Aries holds onto the top rope and hangs over the top rope. Corey turns around and smirks, posing a bit as the crowd boos. Aries skins the cat and re-enters the ring. Corey then turns around and Aries runs at him and clotheslines him down.
Tom Foolery And Corey just got a little bit cocky there!
Preston Poppycock I’d ‘ave to agree with you boy-o!
Corey pops back up and Aries turns around and nails him with a forearm and then another, knocking Corey into the corner. Aries then climbs up to the middle rope and nails Corey with a hard right and then another and another, but Corey then moves forward and lifts Aries up before dropping him down with an inverted atomic drop. Aries winces and walks back and Corey runs forward and clotheslines him down, getting boos from the crowd. Aries rolls over and starts to get up and Corey turns and nails him with a chop, getting woos from the crowd before chopping him again. He then grabs Aries and whips him into the ropes. Aries bounces off the ropes and Corey attempts a back elbow. Aries ducks and bounces off the other side before running at Corey and drilling him with a huge spinning heel kick. Corey rolls over and gets back up and Aries turns and jumps up and nails him with a standing enziguri and Corey flips forward. Aries quickly goes for the pin.

Corey kicks out. Aries gets up and Corey rolls over and gets up before stumbling over towards the ropes. Aries runs over and attempts a clothesline, but Corey gets his elbow up and Aries staggers back to the middle of the ring. Corey then turns and runs over and clotheslines Aries down.
Tom Foolery And Corey returns the favour as Aries gets a bit overzealous.
Preston Poppycock Now stomp ‘im. Beat ‘im into oblivion.
Tom Foolery What do you have against Aries Armadaist?
Preston Poppycock Lot’s of things, but we’re only on the air for so long! Mainly ‘e stole my last tea bag.
Aries starts to get back up and Corey grabs him and lifts him up before nailing him with a hard right. He then kicks him in the ribs before hooking the arm and taking Aries over with a snap suplex. He then rolls over and goes for the pin.

He then turns and whips him into the ropes. Aries hits the ropes, but then reaches back and grabs the top rope and pulls himself back. Corey turns and runs at Aries and Aries lowers his head before backdropping Corey up and over the top rope and right down to the floor, down in front of the announce tables! The crowd erupts in cheers.
Tom Foolery Oh my! Right in front of us! Corey just was launched!
Preston Poppycock Up and over the top rope. Corey, there was no way ‘e could’ve landed well!
Corey rolls over, wincing a bit before slowly rolling over. Aries Armadaist looks at him before slowly waiting. He then turns around and runs into the opposite ropes. He bounces off them before Corey turns to the ring and Aries Armadaist dives through the ropes and takes Corey down with a tope before both men fall back and crash into the English announce table. The crowd cheers and Aries Armadaist rolls over and slowly starts to get up. He then pops up and throws his arms out as the crowd cheers more.
Preston Poppycock Good lord! The idiot! ‘E could’ve killed us!
Tom Foolery I don’t know about that, but he took a huge chance and he’s lucky it paid off! Both men going into our announce table and Aries Armadaist is now back up on his feet!
Corey rolls over and slowly starts to pull himself up. Armadaist walks over and clubs Corey in the back. He then nails him again before grabbing him and starting to lift him up, but Corey suddenly grabs Armadaist by his tights and pulls him back, causing him to go up and over the timekeeper’s table and end up dumped on the other side of it. He rolls over, just barely avoiding landing on his head. The crowd boos as Corey smirks as he gets up and leans on the announce table.
Tom Foolery Armadaist right up and over the timekeeper’s table.
Preston Poppycock Tell me ‘e landed on ‘is head! Please tell me!
Armadaist rolls over and just pushes over the timekeeper’s table completely, causing the IWF timekeeper to run off. Corey then walks over and stomps him in the face, causing him to roll over. Corey then reaches over and grabs Armadaist and drags him out from the timekeeper’s table before spinning him around and driving him face first into the announce table. Armadaist spins off and leans on the table. Corey then grabs him again and turns and drags him over to the Spanish announce table and drives him face first into that. Armadaist staggers back and Corey then nails him with a hard right, knocking him down. Armadaist slowly starts to get back up.
Tom Foolery These two are fighting now in front of us. This is breaking down here at From the Ashes THREE.
Preston Poppycock Well, I guess the referee isn’t calling for count outs. ‘E’s using ‘is discretion ‘ere. Both men are just battling outside of the ring.
The referee drops down, trying to get the men back into the ring, but Corey grabs Armadaist and lifts him up before turning and driving him face first into the ringpost. Armadaist spins off and Corey smirks. He then walks over and stomps him in the face. Armadaist rolls over. Corey then drops down and grabs Armadaist and drives his fingers into the eyes of Armadaist before ripping them away. Armadaist rolls over. Corey then grabs Armadaist and slowly lifts him up. He then turns and goes to send him into the barricade, but Armadaist spins through and sends Corey hard into the corner. Corey bounces off and stumbles forward and Armadaist nails him with a back elbow, knocking him back over towards the barricade. Armadaist looks over and then runs over before drilling Corey with a hard clothesline, knocking him up and over the barricade and down to the floor. The crowd erupts in cheers and Armadaist looks around before smirking.
Preston Poppycock No! Get them back to the ring!
Tom Foolery Oh yeah! A clothesline to the floor, to the crowd. And listen to this place. Yankee Stadium has come unglued!
Corey slowly starts to get up and stumbles forward. Armadaist then grabs the barricade and climbs up on top of it. Corey turns around and Armadaist jumps forward and drills Corey with a double axe handle, causing him to stumble back. The crowd cheers as Armadaist then follows Corey and nails him with a hard right. Corey staggers back as security and fans surround both men. Armadaist walks over and goes to grab Corey, but Corey reaches up and pokes him in the eye. Armadaist turns away and Corey grabs Armadaist before turning him around and running him over hard into the boards. Armadaist stumbles back and Corey nails him with a hard right, knocking him down.
Tom Foolery These two out in the sea of humanity here in New York.
Preston Poppycock This is becoming mad, simply mad the referee needs to take control ‘ere. Who knows? Some of those fans may be taking cheap shots on Bull!
Tom Foolery Oh yeah. Security’s useless around here. Give me a break.
Armadaist starts to get back up and Corey grabs him and knees him in the ribs. The crowd boos around him and Corey turns and yells at them. The crowd boos more and Armadaist then suddenly grabs Corey before running him forward and hard into the boards. Corey falls back as the crowd cheers. Armadaist then turns around and walks around before turning and running back towards Corey and nailing him with a running boot to the side of the head. The crowd cheers as Armadaist turns around and throws his arms in the air.
Preston Poppycock I don’t get it, but these fans love ‘im. ‘E stands on ‘is own. ‘E stands for what ‘e believes in.
Tom Foolery Yeah, and right now, he’s standing for giving himself an unfair advantage. Corey doesn’t have a friend out there!
Armadaist then turns and grabs Corey. He knees him in the ribs and Corey winces in pain. He then spins him around before smirking and grabbing Corey and placing his head between his legs. He looks around and goes to lift Corey up for a piledriver, but Corey manages to block it before lifting Aries up and back dropping him on the concrete floor. The crowd ohs and Corey walks forward and leans on the boards. Armadaist rolls over and starts to stir and Corey turns and stomps him in the side of the head. Armadaist rolls over. He then slowly starts to get up and Corey turns and grabs Armadaist and lifts him up and nails him with a hard right. He then spins him around before turning and hip throwing him into the back two rows of the chairs, causing a few to fall over as the crowd erupts in boos.
Tom Foolery Oh God. Into the chairs. Armadaist...he may be in a bad way.
Preston Poppycock Good. And some of those fans can now say that they were privileged to ‘ave Corey Bull throw someone into their chair!
Tom Foolery Yeah, well, look out there. Corey Bull now going after Aries, but hopefully he doesn’t hit a fan or anything out there.
Corey turns and walks over and he pushes a few chairs out of the way before stomping Aries in the back of the head. Just then a fan gets in the way of Corey and starts to yell at him. He just smirks before the fan throws their drink into the face of Corey. Corey turns away and glares as security moves over and quickly restrains the fans. Corey just turns over and spits in the fan’s face before turning and spitting on Aries Armadaist. The crowd boos as the crowd starts to get more raucous around them. Security starts to try and create a tighter perimeter as Corey grabs Armadaist and lifts him up. He then starts to drag him towards the ring only for Armadaist to suddenly stop and grab Corey and lift him up and then throw him down with a back suplex on the floor! The crowd cheers again.
Tom Foolery A back suplex on the floor! Armadaist just put Corey in a world of hurt.
Preston Poppycock Well they need to get back to the ring. The referee, as I mentioned, is giving these two a lot of leniency. ‘E knows the stakes of this match. They should strip Aries Armadaist of the title for that. ‘E’s trying to cause bodily ‘arm. ‘E’s trying to take Corey out permanently!
Tom Foolery Give me a break Preston. Corey would do the same to Aries if he had the chance too!
Aries rolls over slowly as Corey continues to wince in pain. He slowly rolls over and reaches over and grabs a chair. Aries sees this and quickly stomps him in the back of the head. He then lifts Corey up and starts to lift him up before cuffing him in the back of the head. He then turns and spins Corey around before going to send him into the barricade. Corey however spins around and sends Aries into the barricade, causing Aries to hit his knees on the top of the barricade and flip over and hard onto the mats. The crowd ohs as Aries rolls over and holds his legs in pain, wincing in pain.
Tom Foolery Oh! Knees first into the barricade!
Preston Poppycock Yes! Corey! Go after ‘im! You’re going to cripple ‘is arse!
Aries rolls over and starts to get up and Corey hops over the barricade and gets back to ringside before running over and drilling Aries with a clothesline. The crowd boos and Aries rolls over and slowly starts to stir. Corey turns around and grabs Aries and starts to lift him up before turning and nailing him with a hard right. He then spins him around and rolls him into the ring. Corey rolls in after him and Aries starts to get up, but Corey gets up and runs over before taking him over with a swinging neckbreaker. The crowd boos and Corey turns and goes for the pin.

SHOULDER UP!
Aries gets his shoulder up. Corey looks up and looks at the referee before turning and driving his right hand into the jaw of Aries Armadaist. He then gets up and sits up Aries, lifting him up. He drags him up and then grabs him by the throat before dragging him over to the corner. He then turns and walks back before turning around and running towards Aries Armadaist, but Aries Armadaist nails him with a back elbow. He then grabs Corey and throws him through the ropes to the floor. Aries steps through and then stands on the apron. Corey gets up and Aries jumps forward and wraps his legs around the head of Corey and takes him over with a hurricanrana, leading to cheers from the crowd.
Tom Foolery Hurricanrana on the floor! Corey is planted by Aries Armadaist!
Preston Poppycock Aries adds injury to insult be purposely throwing ‘im to the floor.
Aries then gets up and walks forward. Corey rolls over and starts to stir. He then turns and grabs Corey. He grabs him and lifts him up before turning and throwing him on top of the Spanish announce table. Aries then turns and grabs Corey and Corey nails him with a hard right and then another. He then rolls off and rakes the eyes of Aries. He then turns and throws him over and drives him face first into the American announce table. Corey then turns and rips off the top of the Spanish announce table. He then grabs the television from one slot and places it on the ground before grabbing the other and throwing it down. He then turns around and Aries suddenly kicks him in the ribs before grabbing him and dropping him down with a DDT. The crowd cheers and Aries rolls over and then grabs Corey and slowly lifts him up. He then drags him over before rolling him over onto the top of the Spanish announce table. He then clubs him in the chest a few times before turning around and hoping onto the apron. The crowd starts to erupt in cheers before Armadaist turns and starts to climb up to the top rope.
Tom Foolery Come on, Aries. This is too much. This is too much of a risk.
Preston Poppycock Ref! Stop ‘im!
Armadaist gets to the top rope and looks over at Corey. He then smiles before he dives forward and drills him with a flying elbow drop through the Spanish announce table. The crowd erupts in cheers as both men crash through the table. The cheers continue as Aries rolls over slowly and ends up on top of the rubble as Corey slides to the barricade.
Tom Foolery My God! An elbow drop from the top rope through the Spanish announce table!
Preston Poppycock That’s it! It’s over! Just get ‘im in the ring! They’re mangled! They’re battered! Where’s the justice!
Aries rolls over slowly as the crowd continues to cheer. He stumbles up to his feet and winces a bit before he walks around and walks back towards Corey and grabs him. He drags him out before pulling him to his feet and rolling him into the ring. Corey rolls over and ends up completely out of it in the ring. Aries slides into the ring and slowly crawls over to Corey as the crowd continues to cheer. He lands on top of him and goes for the pin.

Tom Foolery The drive of Corey coming through. He doesn’t want to lose this match for anything in the world!
Aries gets up and Corey rolls over slowly. Aries stumbles around and Corey rolls over before Aries grabs him. He then lifts him up and nails him with a forearm.

Aries kicks out again. Corey falls back and both start to get up again.
Tom Foolery Corey Bull perhaps out of desperation or perhaps to change things up, he’s going for anything to keep Aries down.
Preston Poppycock Who cares if it’s working. It’s keeping Aries down and off kilter.
Aries gets up and Corey gets up and he nails him with a hard right. Aries staggers back. Corey nails him with another. He then grabs Aries before whipping him back into the ropes.

Corey rolls over and then stumbles over to the corner. He exits to the apron and then walks over to the corner. He starts to then climb up to the top rope.
Tom Foolery These two have put each other through hell so far. And now, Corey’s going to the top.
Preston Poppycock And you two thought ‘e’d need ‘elp!
Tom Foolery Well this match isn’t over yet.
Corey pulls himself to the top rope and gets all the way to the top. The crowd starts to boo and Aries then pulls himself up. He then turns and runs over before taking Corey’s legs out from under him. He falls hard on the top turnbuckle as the crowd cheers. Aries then slowly starts to pull himself up to the middle rope. He nails Corey with a hard right and then gets him up to the top rope. He grabs Corey and hooks him up before looking around. He then starts to slowly hoist him up before getting up and then falling back, taking Corey down with a huge superplex from the top rope! The crowd erupts in cheers, but both men crash hard and then lay on the mat.
Tom Foolery Superplex! Both men down! Crash and burn. Corey’s attempt to go high risk didn’t pay off, but Aries’s in a bad way too!
Preston Poppycock BOLLOCKS! UTTER BOLLOCKS! ‘OW IN THE ‘ELL DID ‘E GET ‘IM UP THAT ‘IGH!?
Suddenly out of nowhere Bull sits up and climbs to his feet quickly. Aries’ eyes widen as he can’t believe that the monster Corey Bull is already up. Aries uses the ropes to pull himself up as he watches Bull stomp towards him. Bull grabs Aries by his trapezius muscles and tosses him with a judo toss.
Preston Poppycock Not so fast the Bull is still alive and kickin TOMMY!
Tom Foolery Bull taking advantage now as he digs his claws into the traps of Aries. Wait Bull looks like he’s going to end it here with the Downward Spiral!
As Bull positions Aries for the Downward Spiral Aries reverses it pushing Bull into the referee causing the referee to stumble backwards. Just as the referee stumbles and stares at the ground Aries takes advantage and kicks him right in the dick!

The camera cuts back to the ring as Hope prepares to announce the next match.
Hope Cassidy: The following contest is a submission match!
All the lights in the arena go out, save one green spotlight aimed down at the middle of the stage. Before I.... Take another minute just to give everybody a move Never seen, I'ma hit 'em with another(Elbow) Let me get up everybody That be movin' with Travis Barker On your mark, so ya ready?(Let's go)
Parker rips the curtain to the side and steps out on to the stage. He stops for a moment in the spotlight and surveys the audience and their reaction to his presence.
Wow, okay, here we go again You see the wind I'm blowin' in and I'm like a manglin' The way that I'd be manglin' the beat, they call me Dracula Then they see the fangs goin' in Wow, uh huh Everybody know that I'ma come and I'ma go, huh Then I gotta do what I be comin' in to do A body to the beat In other way, we givin' them a show
The shade of green that had painted the stage lights the sides of the entrance ramp as Parker starts to head down to the ring. Some of the fans taunt him as he walks down the ramp, while others hold out their hands for Parker to slap. Both groups of people get ignored as Parker has only the ring in his sight.
Keys to the ignition and step on the gas (Let's go) And bust a bottle and pour me a shot in my glass (Let's go)
As he reaches ringside Parker turns towards the ring steps to his left and heads up them at a brisk pace. Upon reaching the apron he stops and looks out into the crowd again, possibly reading all of the signs being waved around by the fans.
Hope Cassidy: Introducing first, from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, weighing in at 272 pounds… Parker Waaaayyyydddeee!
Where we at, where we at, where we at? And we back up in the building And we coming with a scorcher Y'all already know who it is, it's Busta Bust and Travis Barker Back to the beat, see we gotta go When we hit the fire trucks, everybody better know That we 'bout to let it blow And we gotta get it yo, everybody if you're wheelin' wit me(Let's go)
Parker steps over the middle rope and ducks under the top rope, stepping into the ring. As he steps to the center of the ring he tilts his head to the side and cracks his neck before starting up the entrance ramp waiting for tonight's victim.
Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
The theme fades out as the opening riff to "Let it Die" by Ozzy Osbourne echoes through the arena's speaker system as the lights dim. A few seconds pass before a golden light focuses on the top of the ramp. Standing there is a regal looking Sah'ta Thor who is wearing a white furred red satin kingly mantle with a matching crown (ala Lawler). In his right hand is a royal scepter studded with gems.
Hope Cassidy: And the opponent, weighing in at 175 pounds… Sah’ta Thoooorrrrr!
The light takes on a reddish tinge as four women (Melfina, Briandea, Paige, and Colliette) dressed in varying colored corsets come out from the back and surround him. As the the lyrics start up the group starts down the ramp as the women dance around him. Once at the ring Thor hands the crown and scepter to the women before shrugging off the royal robes. Thor is now revealed to be standing in a pair of black jeans and a red t-shirt with a golden pattern of the Seven Deadly Sins with the words Sin Incarnate in white. He pulls off his shirt revealing his scarred toned muscular upper body. He turns and starts pacing in the ring as he awaits his opponents.
Both men move to the centre of the ring before locking up, Parker almost instantly gaining the upper hand due to his strength advantage. He rushes Thor into a corner, but before the ref can call for the break, Parker twists his body and throws Thor out of the corner onto his arse. Thor gets back to his feet as Parker just smirks at him, Thor trying to shake off the fact he just got man handled. Both men move back in and lock up again, Parker transitioning into a side headlock. He cranks on it a couple of times before Thor pushes him back into the ropes, before attempting to shoot him off, but Parker keeps his grip on Thor’s head, before taking him down, still applying the side headlock. Thor throws his legs up around Parker’s head, and uses them to pull him off of him. Both men get back to their feet, and Thor immediately jumps into a low dropkick to Paker’s knees, causing him to fall on them. Thor then cracks him in the head with a buzzsaw kick, sending Parker face first into the mat. Thor rolls him over for the cover.
1!
Parker kicks out with authority, throwing Thor across the ring. Thor runs at Parker for a clothesline, but Parker only takes a step back, adsorbing the shot. Thor runs back to the ropes and goes for a second clothesline, to a similar effect. Thor goes back and runs the ropes again, but this times tries to go low with another dropkick, but Parker sees it coming, leaping over the top of Thor, as he slides underneath him. As soon as Parker lands, he turns and almost takes Thor’s head off with a discus clothesline!
Tom Foolery What a counter by Parker! He had Thor’s attack well scouted!
Preston Poppycock ‘E fooking drilled Thor there Tom, what a clothesline!
Parker pulls Thor into the middle of the ring before going for the pin.
1!
2!
Thor rolls his shoulder up just after the count of 2. Parker picks up Thor, before slamming him into the canvas with a belly to belly suplex. He hooks the leg again.
1!
2!
Thor kicks out again. Parker picks up Thor and irish whips him into a corner, before charging in after him. Thor swings his legs out of the ring and moves onto the apron, causing Parker to run chest first into the turnbuckle. Thor grabs Parker’s head before he can stumble back, and drops down from the apron, whiplashing the back of Parker’s neck against the top rope, and Parker crashes to the mat. Thor gets back in the ring before grabbing Parker’s head and drives his face into the mat with a bulldog. Thor rolls him over for the cover.
1!
2!
Parker kicks out at 2, and Thor is not happy. He stalks Parker as he gets to his feet, and with an insane amount of strength starts to lift Parker into position for the Parasite Eve, but Parker grabs one of Thor’s arms in mid air, causing both men to fall to the mat. As soon as they do, Parker transitions into the JTO!
Tom Foolery What a transition! Parker has the JTO locked in!
Parker uses his size and leverage to his advantage, as he keeps Thor trapped in the middle of the ring. Thor keeps fighting, despite the pain he must be in. Parker twists the arm even more to almost the breaking point, before Thor finally taps out!
[DING! DING! DING!]
Hope Cassidy Here is your winner… Parker Waaaayyyyydddee!
Tom Foolery What a match from both of these men, but in the end, Parker was just too much.
Preston Poppycock Thor ‘ad no choice but to… Just tap out.
Tom Foolery I hate you.
Parker lets go of the hold as his music plays through the arena. Thor steps up towards Parker, closing the gap between them. Parker, not to be intimidated, takes his own step forward. Just like the opening of the match, the two men are once again nose to nose as if nothing at all has been settled. The cameras can’t quite pick up the comments that the two are exchanging but it is clear that Thor is making gay gestures and neither of them seems satisfied with the other.
Tom Foolery Not quite sure what those gestures are all about…
Preston Poppycock Bloody weird mate, Thor is quite the trip.
Thor pulls his fist back, in a sight that we have seen before, and Parker isn’t backing away. The fans start to come back to life, thinking that this fight may not be over after all. Parker balls up his fist and cocks it back. For a moment they both just stand there with the tension mounting, waiting for the other man to make a move. Parker suddenly uncurls his fist and holds his palm out to the crowd, silencing them. The arena falls silent, and Parker stretches out his hand to Thor, in a show of good faith.
Tom Foolery Completely unlike Parker, I wouldn’t trust him.
Preston Poppycock I ‘ope Parker cracks Thor in the jaw and breaks it. ‘Ell I look more intimidating than that thundacunt.
Thor looks down at Parker’s outstretched palm as if he cannot believe his eyes. Two weeks ago the two found themselves on opposing sides of this exchange, with Parker turning tail and walking away. Thor takes a step back, as if to show Parker the same disrespect, and then stops, thinking better of it. He balls up his fist and this time raises it up as if to strike. He brings it down towards Parker, but as he does, unclenches his fist and extends his palm. The two men shake hands and the crowd actually pops for the show of sportsmanship before "Special Operations" by Jim Johnston begins to play from the loudspeakers. Both men look around puzzled wondering what was going on. As they do the lights go out sending the arena into darkness.
Tom Foolery Well I was waiting for this.
Preston Poppycock Damien Drake? Brandon Macdonald? I wonder who else ‘as access to the light switches?
Less than ten seconds later the IWF Phoenix Tron comes to life with the form of a man in a early 1980's style US Marine Brigadier General's uniform. Across the chest were dozens of medals and commendations showing that the man was a true hero. The man's face was in shadows so no one could see who he was. The music stops playing just as suddenly as it had started as the man starts to speak.
"We told you that we were watching and that tonight we would make ourselves known."
The lights suddenly come back on and we see Parker and Sah'ta Thor surrounded by the same group who had ended the beat down on Storming Raven a few weeks before. Each of the four were in full military dress showing their country of origin. There was James Jefferson in his US Army Captain's uniform, Imanov Chovsech in a throwback Soviet era uniform with Sergeant Major rank stripes. Kyuubi was there in the uniform of Major in the Chinese Army. The fourth man,who seemed to be just slightly bigger than Thor, was wearing the uniform of a Sergeant in the British Royal Marines.
Tom Foolery Huh?
Preston Poppycock …..
The four figures were standing in each of the corners of the ring staring at Thor and Parker. The two men look at one another somewhat distrustful, and take a step away from each other before turning their attention back up to the screen.
"I can the confusion on your faces but it will all be clear in a moment. Say hello to SpecOps, the group that will return wrestling back to this business. For too long we have seen the maneuverings of politicians and the corrupt. Take a look around this company and you will know exactly what I am talking about. For too long there have been no heroes in the IWF but that changes now. We made ourselves known by showing you all a taste of what we could do when we took over the beating of Storming Raven weeks ago. Tonight we give you another lesson by taking out two of this company's biggest politicians.
As the voice falls silent the four figures in the ring suddenly lunge forward up onto the apron. Thor and Parker lock eyes for a moment, and come to an unspoken agreement. Thor turns around to face one side of the ring, backing up a step. Parker turns around and faces the other way, stepping back into Thor and keeping his eyes on the two in front of him.
Tom Foolery Parker isn’t backing down at all.
Preston Poppycock It’s the lollipop guild!
James and Imanov step over the middle rope and into the ring in front of Parker while Kyuubi and her associate similarly step into the ring in front of Thor. The two men in the center don’t budge, each man has given his unspoken word to watch the back of the other, despite their being outnumbered. James takes a step forward and Parker instinctively squares his shoulders to him. At that moment, Imanov surges forward and catches Parker off guard. Thor takes his eye off the other two for a nanosecond, to address the scuffle behind him and Kyuubi with her as yet still unnamed man descend on Thor while James and Imanov double team Parker. Each of the uniformed figures moves with the ease of hand to hand combat training moving from hit to hit without a wasted movement.
Thor looks over to Parker as he tries to fight of the double team from Kyuubi and the British Royal Marine. Thor manages to show some counter offense getting some separation from the pair. He uses this moment to pull James off of Parker slinging the US Army Veteran into the the unnamed guy. This allows Parker to send Imanov to the ring ropes. As the members of SpecOps regroup Thor looks at Parker then up at the tron for a moment trying to figure out who the man was. After a minute Thor turns back to Parker and reaffirms their so they could deal with their now common enemy.
Tom Foolery I’ve heard of these men before but this is the first I’m seeing them.
Preston Poppycock ‘Opefully it’s the last because well...they SUCK!
As Thor and Parker move forward to deal with the regrouping SpecOps there is a commotion from the back as the cavalry appears from the back. Running down the ring is Frank Finelli who grabs ahold of Imanov and pulls him away from the ring. Across the ring Kyuubi is taken by a Pounce for Savannah which starts a brawl between the two ladies. In the ring we see Parker locking up with James Jefferson in a series of technical holds and grapples. Thor goes at hit with the unnamed man in a flurry of exchanged fists.
Tom Foolery I can’t believe this, Frank Finelli is in there mixing it up with his...I don’t even know what. I’m baffled right now and have no clue what’s going on. I can legitimately say that for the first time in my career.
Preston Poppycock Sorry what was that? I was looking at my watch seeing ‘ow long this shit show was going to last, it’s killing my vibe mate.
"Very good. Our mission is off to a good start but this only the beginning."
The brawl which was not for separate fights was going on all over the ring. Imanov and Frank were busy exchanging punches while each one tries to suplex the other. Savannah who was still in the collar from her match earlier in the night along with the strap was locked up in a catfight fight with Kyuubi. Each of the women was using the strap on the other woman. James Jefferson and Parker were showing off their pure wrestling knowledge as each tries to get the advantage on each other. Thor and the royal Marine were locked up on the ground exchanging a bunch of ground and pound moves. Neither side seems to have the advantage for the moment.
Tom Foolery STALE...MATE.
Preston Poppycock I see what you did there, clever...MATE! HAHA!
Imanov suddenly catches Frank up in a Perun's Embrace at the same moment Kyuubi hit's the Oni Drop on Savannah on the out of the ring. Parker gets the upper hand and locks James Jefferson up in the Just Tap Out while Thor starts to lock in the Heretic's Curse on his opponent. However, the unknown opponent counters the move and locks in a triangle choke. Kyuubi moves from Savannah and dives across Parker and Jefferson, breaking Parker’s hold and freeing her compatriot. Savannah rushes after her to inflict some payback as the the figure on the tron starts to laugh in amusement before speaking.
"That is enough! This mission is now over.
With that statement all four member of SpecOps quit fighting and move out of the ring as their music plays. In the ring Thor looks over at Parker waiting to see what he would do next while the man's image on the tron fades away.
The camera cuts back to the ring as Heather prepares to announce the next match.
Hope Cassidy: The following contest is a STREET FIGHT! And is scheduled for ONE FALL! Introducing first...
Libby’s entrance music blasts over the PA and Sean Libby walks out onto the ramp looking towards the ground snarling and snorting before throwing his arms up in the air roaring loudly.
*CROWD BOOS*
Hope Cassidy: from Framingham, Massachusetts weighing in at 290lbs...SEAN LIBBY!!!!
Sean Libby marches down the ramp and avoids contact from the fans looking extra pissed off. He rolls into the ring and grabs the ropes yanking them back yelling at the crowd. Bouncing up and down Libby grins awaiting his opponent.
Hope Cassidy: And introducing his opponent…
Cast out the storm in my head I've tripped and fell in Caught in my conscience again I try to push it away
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
Hope Cassidy: Making his way to the ring from Chicago Illinois weighing in at 225lbs...CHUCK MATTHEWS!!!!!!!!
*CROWD EXPLODES*
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. Chuck looks back to the the ring, and continues walking. He runs up the steps and pauses on the apron, flashing a grin at the crowd before stepping between the ropes.
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?
Chuck climbs up on the turnbuckle. He stares at the crowd, sneering at them, and stretches out his arms, soaking in the crowd's reactions. Finally, he points to the opponent, shakes his head, then motions to himself. He hops down from the corner, and turns, pacing back and forth, and smoothing out his hair. He stares at the opponent as he rolls his wrists, getting ready for the bell.
STREET FIGHT SINGLES MATCH Chuck Matthews [vs] Sean Libby
[DING DING DING]
Sean Libby immediately runs forward with a clothesline, taking Chuck to the ground. Chuck springs back to his feet, and turns to be met with a huge boot. Sean plants his foot on Chuck's chest and shoves him, sending Chuck tumbling across the ring. Chuck rolls and grabs hold of the second rope, staring up at Sean.
Tom Foolery And right away, Sean Libby is on the attack.
Preston Poppycock I think Chuck looks genuinely afraid!
Chuck gets up and charges Sean, pummeling every inch he can find. Sean stands, motionless, allowing Chuck to rain punches down on his chest and abdomen. Finally, Sean puts his hand in Chuck's face and shoves him away, sending him to the mat once more. Chuck rolls out of the ring, and smacks his hands on the mat.
Tom Foolery Those punches didn't even phase Libby!
Chuck looks under the ring, searching for a weapon. Sean shakes his head and steps over the top rope, letting himself fall to the ground. Chuck pulls a kendo stick from under the ring and turns towards Sean. He swings the stick, cracking it across Sean's chest. The stick snaps, and Sean looks at the welt that slowly begins to form across his skin. He sneers at Chuck and grabs him by the throat with both hands before throwing him towards the announcer's table.
Tom Foolery Incoming!
The two commentators move just as Chuck rolls across the table, crashing into the chairs. He gets to his feet to see Promestein yelling at Sean, pointing at Chuck.
Promestein Quit playing! Finish him off!
Sean nods, and looks at Chuck. Chuck steps up to the table and jumps off, diving towards Sean. Libby catches Chuck out of midair and powerslams him onto the concrete floor.
"OHHHHHH!"
Preston Poppycock E's gettin manhandled out there!
Tom Foolery At well over 200 pounds, Chuck Matthews is no small man, but Sean is throwing him around like a rag doll! Chuck hasn't so much as made a dent in this monster!
Sean approaches Chuck, who springs to life, kicking Sean in the face. Sean shakes off the blow, and grabs Chuck, picking him off the ground and holding him above his head in a military press. He throws Chuck through the ropes, into the ring, before climbing up after him. Chuck gets to his feet, staring Libby down. He charges Sean, looking for a spear. Sean boots Chuck in the face, sending him to the mat. He begins stomping Chuck into the ground before roaring to the crowd. The crowd is silent, watching as Sean continues to beat Chuck into the mat. Chuck slowly stirs, looking towards the ropes. He slowly inches closer. Sean steps on his ankle, causing Chuck to cry out in pain. Outside the ring, Promestein grabs a chair and throws it into the ring, pointing at it and yelling at Sean to use it. Sean picks up the weapon and stares at it for a moment before bringing it crashing down across Chuck's spine. Sean grabs Chuck's shoulder with a free hand, flipping him onto his back. Sean raises the chair again and brings it down on his face. Chuck twitches a bit, then remains motionless. Libby brings the chair down, over and over, each shot being met with less resistance and less movement from Matthews. Finally, Sean stops, throwing the chair into the ring. Chuck lies, motionless, a visible cut in his forehead, just below his hairline.
Tom Foolery This is...sick.
Preston Poppycock Forget about ‘is streak, Chuck will be lucky if ‘e walks out of here on ‘is own free will.
Promestein Finish it!
Tom Foolery Thank goodness. The doctor is calling for Libby to finally put a stop to this.
Sean smirks, and lifts Chuck off the ground, loading him onto his shoulders. He slams Chuck to the mat, and plants his foot on Chuck's chest.

SHOULDER UP!
Chuck manages to get a shoulder up.
Tom Foolery Why would you do that?
Preston Poppycock E's got too much pride. Just give it up, Matthews.
Chuck slowly gets to his feet. Sean throws him to the ropes. Chuck grabs hold of them, and tumbles out of the ring. Sean smirks, and looks to Promestein. Promestein points at Chuck, yelling new orders for Sean. Sean walks to the ropes, leaning between the second and third rope, reaching down for Chuck. He lifts Chuck to his feet, and pulls him by the head up to the apron. Sean lifts Chuck over the top rope in a suplex position, then tosses him outside the ring. Chuck lands on the announcer's table, his stomach smashing onto the edge of it. Chuck lies, slumped over the edge of the table. Sean slides out of the ring again.
Tom Foolery For a moment it looked like a breath of life from Chuck, but I now it's looking like it was just a bandage on the wound.
Sean walks towards Chuck, slapping him to the back of the head. Chuck stirs. Sean lifts him to his feet, then throws him towards the ring. Chuck jumps just before colliding with the apron, sliding into the ring. He crawls across the mat, towards the opposite end. Sean hops to the apron, stepping between the ropes. He grabs the chair, standing menacingly over Chuck. He drives the edge of the chair into Chuck's spine. Chuck cries out in pain. Promestein yells for Sean, pointing to the corner. Sean nods, and wedges the chair in the corner. He lifts Chuck, and looks over his shoulder at the chair. He whips Chuck towards the corner. Chuck stops himself just in time. He turns around into a boot from Sean, which sends Chuck tumbling over the top rope. Chuck crawls to the barricade, getting to his feet. Sean slides out of the ring to meet him. Chuck stumbles up the ramp, waving his hands.
Preston Poppycock Is 'e giving up? E's throwin away his streak!
Sean runs up behind Chuck, driving an elbow to the back of his head. He shoves Chuck up the ramp, stalking him. Chuck tries to get to his feet, but Sean sends a hard kick to his ribs, sending Chuck rolling up onto the stage. Chuck finds the steel structure holding the stage up. He grabs the bars, using them as leverage to get to his feet. Sean charges, and drives his boot into Chuck's skull, smashing it into the steel.
Tom Foolery And there's the Irish Shot. I think Chuck's out of it.
Sean stands over Chuck, smirking. He looks to the crowd, which boos loudly. Sean turns his attention back to Chuck, who throws a desperation punch. The shot connects with Sean's face, and Sean takes a step back. Chuck charges Libby. Sean throws Chuck in the air, then catches him on his shoulders, flooring him with a sickening Samoan drop.
Preston Poppycock Libby Drop, right onto the stage!
Sean hooks Chuck's leg.

SHOULDER UP!!!
Chuck rolls his shoulder up.
Tom Foolery What does it take?
Sean slams his fists onto the stage. Promestein shouts at Sean, pointing at the stage structure. Sean nods.
Preston Poppycock Say what you will about ‘im, but Dr. Promestein has proved invaluable in this match so far. With ‘is brains and Sean's brawn, Chuck's in dire straits.
Sean picks up Chuck onto his shoulder. He charges at the steel stage structure, looking to ram Chuck headfirst into it. Chuck wriggles free, shoving Sean, who collides into the metal. Matthews grabs a chain hanging from the structure, wrapping it around Sean's arm, and tangling it around the steel bars of the scaffold. Sean struggles to pull himself free, but the chain locks in on itself, refusing to budge.
Preston Poppycock Chuck's immobilized Libby! ‘E can't move an inch!
Tom Foolery But that also means he can't take him down for a pin. A brilliant tactic to keep Sean off his tail, but it will only matter if he can capitalize on this chance to breathe.
Chuck stands, just out of reach of Sean. He smirks as Sean swings his free arm wildly, missing Chuck by inches. Chuck slaps Sean across the face, and hops back just as Sean takes a swing of his own. Without warning, Promestein wraps his belt around Chuck's throat, choking him out.
Tom Foolery Promestein! He's taken off his belt, and now he's using it to strangle Chuck Matthews!
Chuck gasps for breath as Promestein pulls harder on the belt. Chuck's face turns a faint shade of purple as he fades out. Sean stops struggling, watching as Chuck loses more air. Promestein starts to drag Chuck towards Libby, the belt still wrapped tight, shutting off Chuck's air. Sean rests his foot on Chuck's chest. The referee counts.

THR-
SHOULDER UP!
Chuck forces a shoulder up.
Tom Foolery Chuck still showing some life! And the referee signaling two!
Preston Poppycock I could've sworn that was three!
Chuck begins thrashing around on the stage, wrenching the belt out of Promestein's grip. Chuck snatches the belt, glaring at the doctor. He steals a glance at Sean, and winks before turning his attention to Promestein. Promestein shakes his head, pleading with Chuck. Chuck approaches him, brandishing the belt. Promestein runs down the ramp, looking to escape. Libby pulls at the chain, struggling to break free. Chuck meanwhile chases Promestein down the ramp towards the ring. Promestein looks to escape through the crowd, but the fans shove him away, back into the main area.
Preston Poppycock Aw, come on now, that's fan interference!
Tom Foolery These fans have never been afraid to make their presence known! There's no escape for the doc now!
Promestein turns around, into a wicked spear from Chuck.
Tom Foolery Hollywood Impact!
Sean screams, yanking hard at the chain. Promestein lies motionless on the floor, completely taken out by the force of the spear. Chuck looks back at Sean and gives him a friendly salute. Sean roars, pulling at the chain. Veins in his arms bulge out of the muscles. A clanking sound is heard, and the chain breaks, falling uselessly around the steel bars.
Preston Poppycock ‘E...’e broke through a steel chain!
Tom Foolery That's just ridiculous strength! And Chuck might regret attacking the good doctor now!
Sean makes a beeline for the ring, where Chuck waits, motioning for Libby to attack. Sean throws up his leg, looking for a boot. Chuck ducks it, standing behind Libby. He immediately ducks down, going for a sharp spear, right to Libby's other leg. Sean falls to the ground, and the crowd cheers wildly.
Tom Foolery Libby is down! Chuck's taken the giant to the floor!
Preston Poppycock And I think we might have ourselves a match!
Chuck goes for a cover.

POWER OUT!
Sean shoves Chuck off, sending him rolling across the floor. Chuck stumbles away from the ring, towards the ramp. Sean slides out of the ring to meet Chuck. Chuck turns and races back, looking for another spear. He catches Sean, driving him spine-first into the apron. Sean grunts in pain, but stands at his full height. He grabs Sean's arm, trying to throw him towards the crowd barricade. Sean plants his feet, refusing to move. With a roar, he throws Chuck towards the steel ring steps. Chuck collides with them, sending the top steps flying as Chuck rolls to the mat.
Tom Foolery Chuck is getting absolutely manhandled here!
Sean approaches Chuck. Matthews rolls, tripping Sean up with a drop toehold. Sean falls to the floor, his skull smacking against the ring steps. He gets on one knee, clutching his face. Chuck grabs Sean by the head and falls back, cracking Libby's head into the steps with a DDT. Chuck goes for a cover.
Tom Foolery He's taken out the brains of the operation, but Libby's just too powerful. The man is a living tank!
Chuck digs under the ring for a weapon. He pulls out a lead pipe, turning his attention back to Sean. He swings the pipe down across Sean's knee. Sean groans in pain. Chuck smashes the pipe down on Sean's other knee, to a similar result. Matthews raises the pipe again, aiming for Sean's skull. He swings down, but Sean reaches up, catching the pipe. He wrenches it out of Chuck's hands. Chuck steps back as Sean swings. Sean stands, and Chuck backs up the ramp, looking around for a weapon. He finally runs off, heading backstage. Sean gives chase.
Preston Poppycock Where do you two think you're going? Ring's out ‘ere!
The camera cuts to the backstage area, where Sean chases after Chuck. He stops, looking around for Chuck. A massive black metal crate rolls down from off camera, smashing into Sean's side, carrying him to the wall, and pinning him there. Chuck is seen, leaning on the other end of the crate, breathing heavily. Sean roars, shoving the crate away, and sending Chuck tumbling. Sean stomps down on Chuck's wrist. Chuck slowly gets to his feet and Sean charges, slamming his shoulder to Chuck's chest and sending him back to the concrete floor. Chuck scrambles to his feet. Sean looks for a clothesline, and Chuck ducks it. Libby turns around, and Chuck fires off a superkick, missing Sean's jaw and hitting him square in the throat. Libby drops to his knees immediately, choking and sputtering. The crowds wild cheers are heard from the arena.
Tom Foolery Shades of Johnny Electric! And I think Chuck has discovered Sean's achilles heel!
Preston Poppycock That injured neck of Sean Libby might be the trick to putting ‘im away.
Chuck immediately grabs hold of Sean's neck and arm, locking in a dragon sleeper. Sean begins coughing up blood. Sean slowly struggles to stand, inching towards the catering table. He uses the table to get to his feet, trying to throw Chuck off his back. Sean turns and throws himself backwards, sending himself and Chuck through the table. Sean gets to his feet, shaking the pain out of his head. He turns back to Chuck, who smashes a food platter over Sean's face, denting the plate.
Tom Foolery Well...that worked.
Sean takes a few steps back, a small cut forming in his forehead, just above his eye. Chuck runs forward, smashing his shoulder to Sean's leg, taking him to the ground. Chuck grabs a fork, digging it into Sean's open wound. Sean screams, and shoves Chuck off. Chuck runs in again, but Sean grabs him by the throat. Sean throws Chuck headfirst through a door, which leads out into the entryway of the arena. Chuck stumbles down the marble floors, near the concession stands on the lowest level. Sean grabs his lead pipe and follows Chuck. He hurls the pipe, which hits Chuck in the back. Chuck stumbles forward, catching hold of a small fast food stall in the arena. Chuck hops over the counter. Crew workers run every which way, getting out of Chuck's way. Chuck shoves one employee out of the way, grabbing a handful of coins from the drawer. Sean turns the corner and Chuck begins pelting him with pennies. Sean puts his hands up, trying to swat away the onslaught. He gets to the register and grabs Chuck by the throat. Chuck swings his fist into Sean's face. Sean howls, and lets go. Chuck winks, and reveals his hand to Sean, showing a quarter wedged between each knuckle.
Tom Foolery Nobody's ever accused Chuck of not being innovative.
Preston Poppycock That's the Smartest Man in Wrestling we know and love!
Sean vaults himself over the counter, going after Chuck again. Chuck's smile vanishes, and he retreats. Sean grabs the register, ripping it from the wires and swings it at Chuck. Chuck ducks, and the computer smashes into the wall. Chuck moves into the kitchen, Libby in hot pursuit. Chuck begins grabbing food ingredients from the kitchen, throwing them at Libby, who only seems to get more and more irritated. Sean grabs a knife from the counter and swings it at Chuck, slashing his arm. Matthews looks at his arm, which is completely unharmed.
Tom Foolery Gotta love safety knives! Cuts food, not flesh!
Preston Poppycock Nice product placement.
Sean kicks Chuck to the gut and smashes his face into the metal counter. He throws Chuck towards the fryer. Chuck catches himself, stopping. Sean walks up behind him. Chuck seizes the basket from the fryer and smashes it over Sean's face. Sean screams, holding his face, where burns form around his face and a mesh-shaped burn appears on his skull. Chuck grabs a food cart from nearby and pushes it towards Sean, taking him off balance to the floor. Chuck goes for a pin. ONE

KICK OUT!
Sean kicks out.
Tom Foolery He almost had him!
Chuck nods, grinning, and moves to the back of the store. Sean gets to his feet, watching Chuck go. He grabs the cart, lifting it over his head. He moves after Chuck and lifts the cart high before bringing it crashing down at Chuck. Matthews moves just in time, and Sean hits the metal sink, ripping it out of the wall, and sending water spraying everywhere. Chuck aims the water at Sean's face, temporarily blinding him long enough for Chuck to slip away. He moves back to the front of the store, stopping long enough to hide a roll of quarters in his tights. Sean grabs the sink from the floor and chases after Chuck yet again. Chuck hops over the counter, taunting Sean. Libby hurls the sink, which Chuck manages to dodge.
Tom Foolery Sean....just threw the kitchen sink at him.
Chuck grabs the cookie display case as Sean approaches the counter. Sean vaults over the counter as Chuck swings. The glass shatters over Sean's head, busting him wide open.
Preston Poppycock He's bleeding!
Sean clutches his head, blood seeping through his hands. Chuck grabs a salt packet, tearing it open, and rubbing it into the wound. Sean screams, swatting at Chuck's hands. Chuck takes a step back and delivers a vicious kick to Sean's skull. He hooks Sean's head, planting him on the floor with a neckbreaker. Chuck rolls onto Sean for a pin.

KICK OUT!
Sean kicks out again. Chuck shakes his head. Sean sits up, glaring at Chuck. Chuck immediately scrambles to his feet, going back on the retreat. Sean stands, and begins chasing after Chuck. Chuck stops at a maintenance door, and steps inside, Sean in hot pursuit. Chuck runs up the only staircase in the room. Sean tries to swing at Chuck as he runs, but Chuck manages to keep just out of Sean's reach. Finally, he reaches a ladder. He looks around for any other exit, but finds none. Slowly, he begins climbing the ladder.
Preston Poppycock The layout of this building confuses me.
Libby begins to climb, trying to grab at Chuck's ankles to pull him down. Chuck sends a hard kick to Sean's face. Sean rocks a bit, but keeps his hold on the ladder. Chuck reaches the top, scrambling onto a massive scaffold. He opens a door at the end and steps out, and immediately stops. In the ring area, the camera looks at the top of the stage, above the From the Ashes sign.
Tom Foolery How the fuck did that ladder lead up there?
Preston Poppycock They were BEHIND the stage that whole time!
Chuck turns around and sees Sean climb up to the top of the stage. Chuck takes a step back, looking over his shoulder at the drop below. He looks up to the rafters, at the cables hanging down, holding the sign in place. An elaborate system of pulleys keeps everything in line, all of it held together with thick steel chains. Chuck quickly arranges a hanging chain, coiling it on the stage. He looks at Sean, who walks out onto the setup. Chuck tries to slip by, but Sean catches him by the chest, pushing him back. He lifts Chuck onto his shoulder, moving towards the edge of the stage.
Tom Foolery This isn't happening...That's a thirty foot drop!
Preston Poppycock ‘E said ‘e was going to end Chuck's career! This is it! Chuck Matthews is gone!
Chuck pulls the roll of quarters from his pocket, and punches Libby in the face. Libby rocks a bit, but maintains his footing. He steps into the coil. Chuck throws the roll of quarters at the winch switch. It hits, and the pulleys begin pulling the chain, tightening the coil around Sean's ankle. Sean looks down at the moving chain and drops Chuck, who slips behind him. Chuck drives a well aimed spear to Libby's knee yet again, taking Sean off his feet. Sean falls to the steel, and Chuck crawls to the winch. Sean crawls after him, looking angrier than ever. Chuck flips the switch again, holding it in place, and forcing the chain to lift again. The chain wraps tight around Sean's ankle. Sean swipes at Chuck, but misses by inches before the pulleys take him off the ground. Chuck smirks, and stops the winch. He looks at Sean, hanging upside down, a foot above the steel structure. He looks around for a weapon, and grabs a sledgehammer that lies nearby.
Tom Foolery That'll do some damage!
Preston Poppycock Sean's ‘anging by ‘is ankle! This isn't fair at all!
Matthews approaches Sean. Sean tries swinging a few times, but misses each shot. Chuck smashes the hammer into Sean's knee, and Sean screams in pain.
"LET'S GO CHUCK!" "LET'S GO CHUCK!" "LET'S GO CHUCK!"
Chuck raises the hammer to the fans, who cheer louder. Chuck drives the hammer into Sean's knee once again. Sean groans, clutching his knee. Chuck smacks him one more time, then tosses the hammer aside. He hits the switch on the winch, dropping Sean to the ground. Sean struggles to his feet, his knee buckles under his weight, but he manages to get his footing. He turns his attention towards Chuck, who charges with a spear. Sean stumbles back a bit, then loses his footing, and he and Chuck plummet, thirty feet, to the stage below, before smashing straight through it.
Preston Poppycock They went right through the stage, they did! No way are either of them getting up after that!
Medics race from the back, surrounding the massive hole in the stage. The referee cautiously climbs down the stage structure, dropping to the stage. He looks into the hole. He waves his arms.
Preston Poppycock ‘E's...’e's calling for the bell! Both men are incapacitated!
Tom Foolery Hold on!
A hand raises out of the hole, and a body starts lifting himself out.
Tom Foolery HOW IS HE STILL GOING?!
Sean Libby grunts, but gets his bad leg up out of the hole. He looks over his shoulder into the pit. He reaches down and pulls Chuck's body up out of the stage. At first, Sean tries to lift Chuck onto his shoulders. When his leg gives out, he drops Chuck to the stage, dragging him by the arm. The crowd is dead silent.
Preston Poppycock Chuck's out. ‘E's done. I don't know what Sean is doing, but Chuck is putting up absolutely no resistance.
Sean lifts Chuck just long enough to roll him under the bottom rope, into the ring. Sean positions Chuck on the mat near the corner, the same corner with the chair wedged in from earlier. Sean gets to the top rope.
Tom Foolery Sean used to be a high flyer...but he's at least 200 pounds heavier now. What is he thinking?
Sean leaps off the rope with an elbow drop, flattening Chuck into the mat. He hooks Chuck's leg.

SHOULDER UP!
Chuck barely gets a shoulder up. The crowd erupts.
Preston Poppycock ‘E's alive! E’'s still going! I don't know how, but Chuck is still moving!
Chuck slowly pushes himself to one knee. Sean growls, and charges, booting Chuck to the skull. Chuck slumps to the mat. Sean goes for another pin.

KICK OUT!!!
Chuck kicks out.
Tom Foolery He's been beaten. He's been bruised. There's a pool of blood forming around him. Chuck's been beaten to an inch of his life. How long is he going to keep this up?
Sean slams his fists on the mat, and lifts Chuck to his feet. He whips Chuck to the corner. Chuck hits the chair hard, and falls facefirst to the mat. Sean moves towards him, then pauses. He looks from Chuck, to the fallen Promestein, to the fans. He smiles, and retreats to the opposite corner.
Preston Poppycock ‘E wouldn't...
Sean crouches in the corner, motioning for Chuck to stand.
Tom Foolery Hollywood Impact, Libby Edition, on the way!
Preston Poppycock ‘Ere lies the streak. 17-1.
Chuck slowly stirs, shaking the pain out of his head. He breathes heavily, getting to one knee. Matthews grabs hold of the rope, using it as leverage as he stands. He holds himself steady in the corner. Slowly, he turns, and Sean charges. Chuck moves at the last second, and Sean charges headfirst into the chair. He clutches his head, which bleeds even worse. Sean tries to wrench the chair off his head, but it's been wedged around his massive muscles, the chair wedged around his neck. Sean gives up trying to pull it free, and turns furiously towards Chuck.
Tom Foolery He's got his head stuck in the chair! This is like third grade all over again!
Chuck crawls away from Sean, towards the apron. Libby steps on Chuck's ankle, preventing him from going moving further. Chuck reaches under the apron, grasping desperately for any sort of weapon. Sean bends over and grabs Chuck's shoulder. Chuck flips over onto his back, and swings a trash can lid at Sean. The lid hits the chair, and Sean steps back, crying out.
Preston Poppycock That chair is in perfect position! It's right around that injured throat!
Chuck gets to his feet. Sean charges, looking for another boot. Chuck ducks, and Sean throws his foot over the top rope. Chuck leaps up, connecting a wicked enzuigiri to the chair. Sean coughs up a bloody mist, falling to his knees. Chuck gets to his feet. Chuck eyes the corner. He cautiously climbs to the top rope, wiping blood from his eyes. He turns back towards Sean. He leaps. Sean catches Chuck in midair, and positions him for a piledriver.
Tom Foolery This has to be it.
Chuck wriggles free, grabbing Sean's injured leg. He frees himself, crawling between Sean's legs, and sending a hard kick to the back of Sean's injured knee. Sean falls facefirst into the mat, the chair once again crushing his throat. Chuck wraps twists Sean's legs around his, and pulls back on them in a sharpshooter. Sean screams, but the moment Chuck adds more pressure, his screams cease. Sean's face is forced into the mat, and the chair into his throat.
Preston Poppycock CRYPTIC CROSS! CRYPTIC CROSS!
Tom Foolery He did everything perfect! A plan executed to perfection! He injured the leg! He got the chair around Sean's neck! He outsmarted Sean, and there's no escape now!
Sean reaches feebly for the ropes. He coughs up a new cloud of blood, fading fast.
Tom Foolery He knew the spear wouldn't work! He knew he had to rely on this move right here, and he's been targeting that leg the whole match, just waiting for this!
Sean struggles, shaking his head. He chokes a bit more, reaching.
Preston Poppycock Keep your dick in your pants, ‘e ‘asn't won yet!
Sean reaches one last time, then finally taps out.
[DING DING DING]
Hope Cassidy: Here is your winner....CHUCK MATTHEWS!!!
Tom Foolery THAT is why that man right there is the Smartest Man in professional Wrestling!
The referee raises Chuck's hand. Chuck wipes more blood from his eyes, but throws his fist in the air, then points to the From the Ashes sign.
Preston Poppycock I'll admit, I didn't think the guy could do it, but damn it ‘e did!
Chuck climbs to the top rope and raises his arms in his signature pose. The crowd explodes in a new wave of cheers. Without warning, Sean runs up behind Chuck, elbowing him to the back. He positions himself beneath Chuck, setting him up for a powerbomb.
Preston Poppycock Come on! ‘E won fair and square!
Sean moves to the center of the ring, before slamming him down on the discarded trash can lid. Chuck twitches for a moment, then lies motionless.
Tom Foolery That's it. Chuck gave everything he had to win the match. He's out. That's it.
The medics jog down the ramp. Sean stares down at Chuck, and grins. He lifts his fists in the air to the boos of the crowd. The show fades to commercial.
Alex Dillinger walks around in his office while wearing his wrestling gear, clearly getting ready for his big match against Damien Drake later on in the night. A knock on his door is heard, causing Alex to stop warming up and look over in the direction of the door.
Alex Dillinger Come in...
The door opened and about ten men in SWAT team outfits entered, followed by a few men wearing FBI and DEA gear. One of the FBI agents walked up to Alex and extended his hand.
Agent Jones Mr. Dillinger, I’m Agent Jones, of the FBI. Nice to meet you.
Alex Dillinger Likewise, I need to first say I've been a changed man and I guarantee you whatever you have on me is false information.
Agent Jones No need to worry, this doesn't concern you...much. I’ll cut to the chase. Tonight you have a wanted man on your show, apparently still able to compete. This man is dangerous, and is wanted for the murder of hundreds of people as well as an inordinate amount of drug trafficking charges. We need your help in tracking him down so that we can arrest him as soon as possible.
Alex Dillinger Sorry, no can do...
Agent Jones I don’t think you understand the gravity of this situation. It’s imperative that we arrest Mr. Macdonald immediately.
Alex Dillinger No I understand the situation. Frankly, I want that lying piece of garbage out of my company as soon as possible. But I have a business to run here. Brandon Macdonald is one of my employees, and a lot of money has been spent investing in this match. If I were to pull him right now, the amount of money we’d lose, not to mention the amount of money the fans would lose, is insurmountable. I give you my full blessings to arrest him post match, but he will be in that ring tonight.
Agent Jones Mr. Dillinger, we can’t just sit here and watch him and hope that he doesn’t try to escape. We have to act. You do understand that if you do not cooperate with us we can take you down for aiding and abetting.
Alex Dillinger Look, I understand that you guys have a job to do and you need to understand that I have a job to do as well. I’m not giving you him. Come to think about it, can I see your warrant to be on these premises right now? If you aren't allowed here then this discussion is over.
Agent Jones looked at his men and then back at Alex, who smiled at the agent flashing his pearly whites throwing them a casual cocky wink.
Alex Dillinger That’s what I thought. Now I could ban all of your men from this building right now, since we’re leasing it, we get full say in these matters. But look we can throw all the bullshit aside. This is a HUGE night, you know it and I know it otherwise you wouldn't be here correct? So with that said let's just compromise. We both get what we want. If you really believe Brandon is that much of a threat if he does anything tonight other than compete in that match I will personally give you my wrists to slap the cuffs on them for being an accessory. However if he goes out there and competes in his match and all goes as I assume it will than I will allow you and your men to walk down to that ring at the matches conclusion and take away your man.
The agents looked back and forth at each other for a moment, contemplating the bargain that Alex was offering them. Agent Jones turned back to Alex and spoke.
Agent Jones Fine. However we’re going to take all precautions. Surround the building, security all through the stands. Mr. Macdonald cannot be allowed the chance to escape during his match tonight.
Alex Dillinger Fine by me. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a match to get ready for...
With that, the agents and SWAT team all turned and walked out of Alex’s office, leaving only him there to continue to warm up for his match later on.

Hope Cassidy: This next match is scheduled for ONE FALL! Making his return to IWF, hailing from San Diego, CA…STEEL ANGEL!
The lights fade out as the sound of a bell tower rings throughout the arena, a few more moments fly by before...
"Unleash the warrior within!"
Pyro sets off from both sides on the entrance ramp in the form of a pair of angel wings with the words "Heaven's Gladiator" appearing in crystal blue letters on the titantron. A single platform can be seen being lowered at the ramp revealing Steel Angel and Marley Jones standing at the center. Steel Angel is wearing a white and blue warrior tunic with angel designs decorated on the back and a gold cross shape tapestry on the front. Marley is wearing a light blue warrior tunic with feathers decorated on it and long leather boots. Steel's long black hair flows in the air as he stares at the crowd before him.
Death until the dust, and we're waiting Ruined in the rust, of our craving It feels like, it feels like!
Don't you know the cost, of your betrayal? You're the one that's lost, you're gonna fail It feels like, it feels like!
Steel Angel and Marley jump off the platform and they both bow before fans as they shower them in cheers. Steel Angel then walks slowly towards the ring every step with purpose, every movement loose and flowing while Marley holds his arm following his every move.
You're Gasping with all your might!
Steel Angel then stops at the end of the ramp where he brings his hands together with the middle and index fingers joining together pointing straight out with the other fingers curled together overlapping one another. He then moves his hands while in this symbol up, down, left and then right in the form of a cross before bringing both middle and index fingers to his lips and kisses them. He then separates his hands as he points to the sky unleashing blue pyro from the entrance ramp.
You can't take away my strength Fix these broken veins There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die) You can't take away my pride, I won't be denied There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
Steel Angel then walks around the ring slapping high fives with some of the fans before climbing through the second rope and enters the ring. Marley walks to one side and claps with the fans as she watches him.
Insects walk below, I'm on a wire Fire will burn below, but I am higher It feels like, it feels like!
He smiles as looks around the ring, he then poses which causes the fans to cheer some more.
Don't you know the cost, of your betrayal? You're the one that's lost, you're gonna fail It feels like, it feels like!
He then removes the tunic and takes it off showing his ripped features to the ladies in attendance some of whom scream in delight before he hands it to Marley. He is also wearing gold karate style pants with white flame like designs on the ankles and the words "Steel Angel" written in black latin like writing on the sides.
You're Gasping with all your might!
He then moves to the center of the ring and forms the same hand gesture he did at the end of the entrance ramp. This time as he ends the gesture by pointing to the sky that white pyro erupts from the corners.
You can't take away my strength Fix these broken veins There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die) You can't take away my pride, I won't be denied There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
He then tilts his head from side to side and he gets ready for his match.
Tom Foolery Steel Angel is back in IWF!
Preston Poppycock Oi’, they should have left em’ where they found em’.
Hope Cassidy: And hailing from Las Vegas, Nevada, he is the former IWF World Heavyweight Champion…ETHAN CAGE!
The lights go out, the first chords of Hit the Lights by Metallica begins to play. Then the stage fills with blue, sparks shower down from the titan tron, and out comes Ethan, walking through those sparks, in a hoodie vest, long wrestling gear, black elbow pads, and gloves. Ethan stops at the entrance way and peeks from under his hoodie and then walks at a comfortable pace with the hood covering his face, smirking most of the time, depending on his opponent. He rolls into the ring, he stands in the middle of the ring and right as the singer of his theme song screams "Hit the Lights", Ethan throws back the hood and exposes his face and holds his arms out at his sides.

Hope Cassidy: Here is your winner... ETHAN CAGE!
Tom Foolery What an awesome match. Despite the loss, Steel Angel proved that he still has what it takes to compete here.
Preston Poppycock Aye, but Cage proved why he is the former world champion.
The camera fades out to an advertisement for IWF Action Figures.
Coming back to the ring we see Hope ready for the next match.
Hope Cassidy: The following match is a Trail of Tears Match...
The lights go out and a haunting Native American chant sounds through the arena, a low fog rolls down the entrance stage and ramp surrounding the ring. Then the opening chords of "Paint it black" blares through the arena
I see a red door and I want it painted black No colors anymore I want them to turn black I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Storming Raven slowly walks out onto the stage side by side with Nekora, completely focused ignoring the crowd's reaction. He stands at the top of the entrance stage glaring at the ring.
Hope Cassidy: Introducing first...accompanied but Nekora Ladyhawke...
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black With flowers and my love, both never to come back I see people turn their heads and quickly look away Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday
They slowly walk down the stage. Storming Raven jerking his arms away from the idiotic fans trying to touch him.
I look inside myself and see my heart is black I see my red door and it has been painted black Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
He runs down the rest of the way, and slides in the ring, before getting to his feet. He walks over and glares intimidatingly into his opponents eye, seeming to look into his soul.
Hope Cassidy: Weighing in at 275 pounds… from Laredo Texas… Storming Raven!
Tom Foolery Storming Raven is a despicable person. There’s not much else to say about that monster.
Preston Poppycock ‘E does what ‘e needs to do.
The lights turn off in Yankee Stadium. The big screen begins showing video clips of Tim Patrick as a child, sitting in his room playing with wrestling Action Figures in a tiny wrestling arena he made out of balsa wood and blocks that he built himself.
The next images we see is him as a teenager, brawling in illegal Hardcore backyard/underground wrestling promotions.
Hope Cassidy: And his opponent…
Next we see him in the streets of Belfast, leading an IRA active service unit on patrol while "Irish Ways and Irish Laws" by Moving Hearts play through the speakers.
Next we see him in NLWF battling Knife 2 Know You and then Corey Casey on Alcatraz Prison.
Hope Cassidy: weighing in at 230 pounds and hailing from South Philadelphia….
The footage stops for a moment, and then there is an explosion on the screen followed by highlights of all of Tim Patrick's matches in IWF. His battles with the Right Honorable Gentlemen, with the Empire, with Thor and the Empire of Blood, with Flex Johnson, fighting with Storming Raven at Bloody Sunday 2, winning the High Impact Title against Gordon Fury in Belfast, beating Sean Libby. The final image we see is Tim Patrick and Blyss Lockhart hugging backstage after a show.
A giant picture is lowered over the big screen of Cody DeLou, Tim Patrick's late love of his life.
Hope Cassidy: Ladies and Gentlemen - Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band!
The crowd erupts in cheers as they walk out on the staging area at the entrance way on top of the ramp. They begin to play their song, "The Wrestler".
Hope Cassidy: "The Irish Carbomb"....Tim Patrick!
A minute or so into the song, a spotlight is shown at the opposite end of the Stadium and Tim Patrick, in full black combat gear and mask, his normal ring attire, begins to walk down the steps of the stands. Fans are cheering wilding and high 5ing him and slapping him on the back. It's a large stadium so it takes him several minutes to make it to the railing and he hops over and slides under the bottom ring. He stands up and walks over to Storming Raven and slowly removes his mask. His eyes are full of intensity and his expression doesn't change.
Springsteen finishes his song and the 2 Trail of Tears cages begin to slowly lower and surround the ring.
Tom Foolery This crowd is going crazy for Tim Patrick. Look at that serious glare in his eyes. He’s ready to jump right this very second!
Preston Poppycock Aye and I can’t quite blame ‘im much mate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRAIL OF TEARS SINGLES MATCH Storming Raven [vs] Tim Patrick -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the bell rings signalling the start of the match Tim Patrick and Storming Raven are engaged in an intense stare down. Suddenly Storming lunges forward and tries to clothesline Tim off of his feet. Tim however manages to sidestep causing the Storming to hit ropes. This allows Tim to reach up and pull a cheese grater of the wall of the cage. After a quick glance at it Tim drags it over Storming Raven's forehead shredding the Native Nightmare's flesh. This causes blood to flow.

Tim is unable to fight out of it as he is still twitching from being electrified which causes Tim to tap out.
Hope Cassidy: Winner of the first fall via Submission….Storming Raven!
Tom Foolery I can’t believe it! Storming Raven makes Tim tap first.
Preston Poppycock This is ‘is specialty match don’t be too surprised mate.
Storming hold the move in until Tim starts to struggle again. Suddenly the Native Nightmare releases the hold as he stands up to pull a barb wire wrapped kendo stick. Tim gets to his knees as Raven takes his first swing. The barb wire wrapped kendo stick shreds Tim's back causing him to bleed even more. Tim rolls to the side causing Raven to hit the side of the cage. This allows Tim to get to his feet and prepare for his offensive. he wastes now time in shoulder checking Storming Raven into the electrified side of the cage. Raven is unable to avoid hitting the wall starts to twitch.
Tom Foolery OH SWEET BABY JESUS! HE’S TWITCHING!

Tim allows Storming Raven to crisp for a minute while he catches a breath. With an amused look on his face Tim grabs a steel chair of the C4 wall and then slams it into Storming's side. The hit cause Raven to hit the mat where he lays twitching for a minute. Tim slams the chair into Storming Raven's gut several times before dropping it. While Raven lays gasping Tim starts to laugh as he forces the Native Nightmare of the mat. Tim forces his opponent off the mat and then slams him into the flaming wall. Storming Raven hits the wall and gets caught up in the barb wire and flames as Tim grabs a baseball bat off the normal, for this match, cage wall.
Tom Foolery Raven is hung up in the barbed wire! Tim has a bat now what’s he going to do with that!
Preston Poppycock The smart betting man says ‘e’s going to ‘it ‘im with it genius.
As Tim lines up a shot Raven's clothes start to catch fire. Tim slams the bat into Raven's back so hard that it shatters. With a savage yank Tim pulls Raven off out of the flames and sends him to the matt with a powerslam. Before the Native Nightmare can react TIm drops down and locks in The Struggle.

Preston Poppycock It comes down to this...
Tim keeps the hold locked in as he hears Storming Raven tap out. He suddenly lets go allowing the Native Nightmare a moment of peace. However, Tim wasn't done with his one best friend as he grabs a length of chain from the closest wall of the cage. With a demonic smile Tim wraps the chain around Storming Raven and yanks on the ends roughly and tries to choke him out. Suddenly Tim drops the chains and rushes to the least dangerous wall and begins to climb up the twenty foot structure. In the ring Storming Raven lays struggling for breath.
Tom Foolery Raven is struggling to breathe and this doesn’t look good for him.
Preston Poppycock Tim wants to literally KILL Storming Raven!
As Tim keeps climbing Storming Raven finally manages to get on his feet. Once on his feet Storming Raven looks around and sees the where Tim is. Without thinking Storming charges forward and tries to grab Tim's feet. Unable to do so Storming starts up the dangerous cage wall in rapidly pursuit of Tim Patrick. With a look down Tim sees he is being followed and stops climbing. Storming rushes up the side of the cage and quickly gets within reach of Tim. Storming Raven and Tim Patrick start exchanging punches as the hang on to the cage with on hand. As blood streams from each of their hands the two men seem intent on dealing eachother as much pain and possible.

Preston Poppycock BLOOD ‘ELL!!!
Both men land in the ring with a sickening thud. Tim has enough presence of mind to drape his arm over Storming Raven which starts a count. Storming Raven lifts his shoulder up out of nowhere much to the amazement of everyone in the arena. Tim rolls out of the way and slowly climbs to his feet all the while keeping his eyes on his opponent. Once both men are back on their feet both rush to the side of the cage to start climbing up the structure each trying to get over the top first. As they climb both men share trade punches each one trying to send their opponent back to the ring below. Tim suddenly slams his fist into Raven's cage clenching hand which causes the man to fall to mat below.
Tom Foolery Raven is down! This could be Tim’s chance!

He looks up the cage and sees Tim climbing over the top which causes the Native Nightmare to yell in frustration. Storming Raven rushes into the wall of the cage and starts climbing like a madman. Tim who was now climbing down the outside of the cage starts using his boots to force Raven to lose his grip on cage. Storming Raven moves out of the way of the kicks and then speeds up his climb. Meanwhile Tim rush down the outside of the cage. As Raven gets to the top of the cage Tim is close enough to the ground to drop down.
Tom Foolery Tim is outside of the cage now.
Preston Poppycock But wait Raven is up now and following after ‘im!
Tim lands on the outside of the ring as the crowd cheers him on. Meanwhile Storming Raven rushes down the outside of the cage. Tim spots him coming and grabs a steel chair to use as a weapon. The Native Nightmare drops the last handful of feet to the floor while Tim stands ready. Tim rushes forward and slams the chair down on Storming Raven's torso with a series of savage hits. After about a dozen hits the chair is so mangled that Tim tosses it aside and moves to the ring to find something under it. This allows Storming Raven to get to his feet. Tim pulls a shovel from under the ring and slams it in the side of Raven's head which forces the Native Nightmare back to his knees.
Tom Foolery SHOVEL RIGHT TO THE HEAD AND RAVEN IS DAZED!
Preston Poppycock Tim isn’t done yet mate, ‘e’s just gettin started!
Tim follows up the move with a kick to Storming Raven's gut. As Storming drops forward Tim moves to climb up the outside of the cage in preparation of another brutal move. Once Raven stands up Tim launches of the cages in an elevated swinging neckbreaker. This sends Raven back to the ground and goes to lock in a Kantahantamei. Raven breaks the hold and finally manages to get in some offense as he rolls Tim into a cobra clutch.
Tom Foolery Cobra Clutch by Raven! Tim is in serious trouble.
Preston Poppycock It’s locked in tight! This could be it right here!
Storming suddenly lets go of Tim for a few seconds only to grab him by the hair. The Native Nightmare pulls the Irish Car Bomb to his feet by the air and then sends him sprawling into the guardrail.

Hope Cassidy Ladies and Gentlemen allow me to introduce to you the special ring announcer for this match. Please welcome UECW Hall of Famer...JACI SOVEREIGN!
The lights in the arena dim as the instrumentals of the start of Tell Me Where It Hurts by Halestorm begin to play. Soon camera lights begin to flicker as multiple color lights begin to move there way through the arena. As the songtress, Lzzy Hale,begins to sing, Jaci appears from behind the curtain she steps into the spotlight with a smirk planted on her face.
Hey did ya know you're makin' nice with a murderer Hey did ya know you're swappin' lives with a dirty girl In order for me to play your nurse, You gonna have to tell me where it hurts
She walks to each side of the stage pointing to the fans and encourages them to cheer louder before she begins her descent down the ramp. Slapping the desperate hands reaching out for her over the barricade.
Hey you know you're lockin' lips with a libertine Hey did you know you're knockin' hips with a killer queen Another victim of my method of seduction I made you look but you never saw me comin'
When she approaches the ring, she quickly slaps as mainy hands as she can before jogging her way up the steel steps.
Come on and give it to me Take you to give it to me Give it your best shot My love is black and blue Come on and give it to me Take you to give it to me Give it your best shot Give it your best shot
Rounding the ring post she waves at the fans as she walks on the edge of the ring apron, her left hand gliding over the top rope. When she stops near close to center, she looks around at the crowd with a smile as she points out a sign that makes her laugh.
Wiping her feet off before entering the ring over the second rope, Jaci then walks over to the nearest turnbuckle and climbs up to the second rope and raises her hands in a repeated fashion encouraging them to cheer louder until putting a hand to her ear as though she can’t hear them. Almost instantly the fans accept the challenge causing the arena to vibrate at the variations of screams and cheers.
Laughing a bit she Hops down off the rope, telling something to the referee that makes him chuckle a bit before she flips her hair over her shoulder as she walks over to the announcer’s side of the ring, taking the microphone from Hope as she exits the ring.
Jaci Sovereign: This match is a Hell in the Cell. On his way to the ring at this time, weighing in at 275 pounds, from Williamsport, Pennsylvania, Damien Drake!!!
The lights in the arena slowly start to fade until the entire arena is covered in dark. A voice echo's throughout.
DON'T INJURE WHAT YOU CAN'T KILL!
Flames erupt from the stage as Determined by Mudvayne starts to play. Damien Drake stands there alone, arms crossed over his chest. As the flames die, Damien begins to walk towards the ring, Damien walks, eyes forward, his focus never wavering from the ring. Damien grabs the top rope and pulls himself onto the mat. Inside the ring, Damien waits for the match to begin.
Jaci Sovereign: and his opponent, weighing in at 245 pounds, from Los Angeles, California, Alex Dillinger!!!
The lights in the arena, one by one slowly fade off until the entire arena sits pitch black. Tonight’s turn out is great, the arena is nearly jam packed with maybe the greatest wrestling fans ever seen to date. A buzz falls over the crowd as we sit there...waiting. Finally the lights along the tron pulsate as words begin to be spoken.
Because in this there is no teacher, no pupil; there is no leader; there is no guru; there is no Master, no Saviour. You yourself are the teacher and the pupil; you are the Master; you are the guru; you are the leader; you are everything. And to understand is to transform what is.
“Diamond” by Stick To Your Guns blares with every pulse of the song's intro, a series of bright blinding white lights flash in time. Violently, the song’s pulsating intro kicks into the hammering of guitars as wind and smoke chaotically collect, swirl and clash on the entrance stage until it engulfs the entire stage whole.
I know that what's in front of me is a reflection of what is inside of me I see that I need to be myself because it's so lonely in the eyes of someone else I feel Oh I feel Ya I feel and I always will
Every light in the arena slowly fade off except the red “exit” signs. The energy of the crowd is amazing. The lights flicker off, as the strobe lights continue to flicker throughout the arena.
I starve to leave fee from fear To free myself, before I disappear I am forever more than just surviving This is my life and this life is my diamond My time, Your time, Our time is running out
A few spotlights in the arena scan through the crowd. Appearing from a tunnel in the crowd Alex Dillinger stands tall with the crowd at their feet. With an arm in the air the crowd greets him with a tremendous ovation. Walking down the steps and through the crowd on a mission Dillinger makes his way to the ring...
I know you, because you're just like me Always questioning every single thing Never giving up without a fight Because for you, your resistance is a way of life
Young and angry, with every right to be Bent but not broken, hanging on by a thread Looked past by most, looked down on by all. We don't need them, it's forever us against them all Forever us against them all
The fans in the front row reach out and touch Alex as he hops over the barricade continuing to reach for him until he slides under the bottom rope. The flashing bulbs of cameras surround and overtake the ring as Alex Dillinger rises up from the mat and climbs up on the turnbuckle. Facing the hard camera, Alex pounds his chest like a BEAST. Hopping down off the rope he heads to his corner cracking his wrists and knuckles getting loose before the match begins
Damien Drake lifts Alex Dillinger and throws him with a overhead belly to belly suplex as Alex Dillinger checks out of the ring landing on his back. Rolling up quickly he stares down Damien.

The opening riff of The Scorpions’ “Arizona” blares over the speakers and the fans come to their feet. Jason walks out of the back and raises his fists to an ovation from the crowd, as he stands there pyros come towards him from either side in sequence, stopping just short of the ramp. As Jason lets his arms down, the entire stage on either end of the entrance erupts in gold and white fireworks. Jason walks down to the ring, winding back and forth diagonally down the ramp to slap hands with the fans.
Hope Cassidy: Entering the arena right now..from Bullhead Arizona...weighing 315 Pounds..Jason Gabriel!
Tom Foolery: The man is back! Only not as the Black Dragon..just Jason Gabriel!
Preston Poppycock: A rose is still a rose by any other name! He's looking to make a statement!
When he gets to the mats he walks about halfway around the ring, slapping outstretched hands and joking with the fans. After saying something that makes Preston laugh, he dives under the bottom rope, reaches up and pulls himself up with the top rope and climbs into his corner, facing the crowd from the second turnbuckle with his arms high in the air. He takes off his denim vest and tosses it to the IWF crewmember at ringside, before hopping down and leaning lazily in his corner, waiting for the bell.
Just then, Bon Jovi ascends the stage. The crowd pops huge once they see them get their instruments.
Hope Cassidy: Ladies and Gentlemen....Bon Jovi!!
The crowd pops huge for the band. The music then begins.

Hope Cassidy: And his opponent..from Windsor Ontario Canada...Griffin Hawkins!!
Tom Foolery: What an reaction..Hawkins is making his entrance with style..with Bon Jovi no less!

The camera cuts to a shot of Tom Foolery and Preston Poppycock sitting at their announce table, looking ready to go.
Tom Foolery Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, strap on your seatbelts, because it’s time for our main event tonight.
Preston Poppycock Gordon Fury, the man, the IWF Champion, ‘e’s going up against Mr. I only fight ‘ere once a momph. Brandon Macdonald
Tom Foolery You are not a fan of Brandon are you Preston
Preston Poppycock No, I am not a fan of Brandon Tom
Hope Cassidy Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is the MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING. The match is a best two out of three falls match, and there are no count-outs or disqualifications. Introducing first…from Mackay Australia…weighing in at 210 pounds…he is the current IWF World Heavyweight Champion…GORDON FURY!!!
The opening double kick drums and guitar riffs of “Honest Eyes” by Black Tide blast through the arena speakers and the fans all get on their feet in anticipation. As the intensity increases at the second intro riff, the fans cheer loudly as Gordon Fury walks through the entrance curtain, his title draped over his left shoulder. He flicks his hood back and riles up the fans from the stage, getting an even louder response.
"HATE!"
On that word Gordon fist pumps out in front of him, queuing a blast of pyro from behind him.
"I'm filled with hate, And you will regret! How did I get so lost?"
FIGHT!
I’ll win this fight, Pull Myself out! Save myself at all cost!"
Gordon pulls the title off his shoulder with his right hand and holds it as he slaps hands with the fans on his way down the ramp, constantly on the move, going to both sides of the ramp.
"Give me my, My life back!
I will take what’s gone..."
Gordon gets to the ring and climbs the ring steps, before stepping onto the apron, turning so that he is facing away from the ring.
"How? How'd we come this far? Why did we survive? I'd rather live my life through Honest Eyes!"
Gordon turns and leaps in one motion, landing straight on the second turnbuckle. He then hoists the championship high in the air, causing an uproar of cheers.
"Where did we go wrong? What did we not see? I'd rather live my life through Honest Eyes!"
Gordon then leaps off the turnbuckle and goes across the ring to the opposite corner, jumping up to the second turnbuckle, and riling up the fans again by holding the title up in the air. He jumps down from the turnbuckle and hands the IWF Championship to the referee before taking off his hoodie and throwing it into the crowd. He then*waits for his opponent as the song fades out.
Preston Poppycock Now see ‘ere, this is what’s unfair about dis whole fing. Gordon is the champion, so why does ‘e ‘ave to enter first?!
Tom Foolery Well I think it’s because nobody is really sure if Brandon is going to show up tonight. He’s a wanted man you know?
Preston Poppycock Dat’s another fing. How can IWF let Brandon compete if ‘e’s wanted for murder and is a drug lord? Makes no sense to me
Tom Foolery Well be that as it may, Brandon is a phenomenal wrestler and deserves his spot here. I’m excited to see a great match between two fantabulous wrestlers.
Hope Cassidy And his opponent…from Ottawa, Ontario Canada, by way of Los Angeles. Weighing in at 210 pounds… Ladies and gentlemen, the IWF Hall of Famer…BRANDON MACDONALD!
From Agincourt to Waterloo Poitiers and then Anjou The Roses War, the Hundred Years Through battlefields of blood and tears
Camera focuses in on the top of the stage, where Brandon Macdonald walks out, wearing his fighting shorts and his head covered in a towel. He bows his head before throwing the towel off of it and walking down the ring, smiling as the crowd boos at him. Brandon makes eye contact with Gordon in the ring and never breaks it
From Bosworth Field to Pointe Du Hoc Stalingard and the siege of York The bloody turf of Gallipoli Had no effect on the killing spree
Brandon slides into the ring and walks towards one of the turnbuckles
Bannockburn to Austerlitz The fall of France and the German blitz The cruelest of atrocities Europa's blood is borne of these
Brandon climbs up one of the turnbuckles and holds a fist to the sky. He smacks his chest a few times, before pointing to the heavens. He jumps back down and does the same thing on the opposite turnbuckle
Heaven help in all our battles Heaven see love, heaven help us
Brandon walks back to his corner and crouches down, staring at Gordon, grinning all the while, never once breaking eye contact with Gordon as the referee holds up the IWF Championship belt.
Tom Foolery He is here! This match is going to happen!
Preston Poppycock I ‘ope Gordon beats the living ‘ell out of Brandon
The referee makes sure both Brandon and Gordon are in their respective corners, before walking over and handing the IWF Championship belt to the timekeeper. The referee walks back into the middle of the ring and calls for the bell to begin the match.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAIN EVENT IWF CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH BEST 2/3 FALLS Gordon Fury [vs] Brandon Macdonald -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brandon Macdonald and Gordon Fury waste no time circling each other as they immediately run towards the center of the ring and tie up. Both men fight for position as neither one of them gives an inch. Brandon begins to push Gordon back into the ropes, pinning him there and trying to break free of Gordon’s grip. Brandon reaches back and slaps Gordon Fury in the chest multiple times, as the crowd boos loudly with each slap. Brandon takes a few steps back as Gordon charges at him and wastes no time in getting Brandon in the clinch and immediately delivering stiff knees to the head of Brandon. After five knees, Gordon releases Brandon, who takes a few steps back and laughs at Gordon, shaking his finger at him.
Tom Foolery Brandon is letting Gordon know right away that those knee shots won’t be working tonight
Preston Poppycock Gordon said ‘e would knee Brandon in the face until ‘e could pin ‘im. That’s exactly what ‘e’s tryna do!
Brandon runs at Gordon and takes him down to the mat with a heavy clothesline. Brandon rolls over and mounts Gordon and begins to deliver big clubbing blows to Gordon’s face. Brandon drops a few elbows as Gordon covers his face up, desperately trying to block the shots that Brandon is throwing. Gordon eventually rolls onto his back and as Brandon gets close to his head, Gordon throws an elbow, landing on Brandon’s head and causing him to fall backwards off of Gordon and onto the mat. Gordon pulls himself back to his feet as Brandon is also getting to his feet. The two men run at each other and tie up once again in the middle of the ring.
Tom Foolery Another tie up in the ring, these two men are really going at it
Preston Poppycock Well what did you expect em to do? You think that they’d just sit around and ‘ave a nice tea and crumpets date?
Brandon drops down to his knees and grabs the back of Gordon’s legs. Brandon trips Gordon over but catches him on his own shoulders. Brandon lifts Gordon up off of his shoulders and slams him down with a kneeling fireman’s carry slam. Brandon grabs onto Gordon’s arm and twists around, trying to immediately lock in an armbar. Gordon holds onto his own arm for dear life, desperately trying to prevent Brandon from locking in the armbar. Gordon eventually rolls over top of Brandon, causing Brandon to release Gordon’s arm. Gordon tries to grab Brandon’s arm mid roll, but Brandon manages to hold onto it and stop Gordon from locking in his own armbar. Gordon rolls all the way up to his feet and walks towards Brandon, going to pick him up. Brandon shoves Gordon away from him and stands back to his feet.
Tom Foolery Brandon is really trying to lock in that armbar, but Gordon is having none of it
Preston Poppycock Oi that’s because Gordon is too good to be caught in that kind of nonsense ‘old by a nonsense wrestler
Brandon and Gordon slowly circle each other, this time not so eager to tie up. Gordon moves towards Brandon and throws a right hook. Brandon moves back to dodge the punch, and then throws a big leg kick that connects on the knee of Gordon. Brandon throws up a fake knee strike before swinging with a superman punch, but Gordon gets his hands up and blocks the punch. Gordon runs towards Brandon and ducks underneath a left hook and continues to run past Brandon. Gordon hits the ropes and rebounds, running back towards Brandon and jumping into the air and spinning around. Gordon lands a spinning heel kick to the head of Brandon, who can’t block it in time. Brandon falls to the ground as Gordon lands on both of his feet. Gordon immediately runs towards the ropes and bounces off of them. Gordon jumps and elbow drops the prone Brandon directly in the chest. Brandon rolls around the mat in pain as Gordon gets back to his feet.
Tom Foolery Gordon seems to be getting a little bit of momentum here, we’ll have to see if he can hold onto it though
Preston Poppycock Of course ‘e will! E’s Gordon Fury, the IWF Champion! Oo’s the other guy again? Some old washed up gent?
Gordon shuffles behind Brandon, who is getting to his knees. Gordon runs and flips overtop of Brandon, grabbing his head mid-flip and slamming Brandon’s head face-first into the mat as he rotates down. Gordon stands up and immediately stomps on the back of Brandon’s head three times. Gordon makes his way to Brandon’s arms and begins to stomp those too, until Brandon rolls away. Gordon walks back over to Brandon and grabs him, lifting him back to his feet. Gordon grabs Brandon’s arm and tries to whip him across the ring. Brandon blocks Gordon and reverses it, whipping Gordon across the ring instead. Gordon hits the ropes and runs at Brandon, who drops to the mat as Gordon hops over-top of him. Gordon runs and jumps towards the ropes, landing on the second and springboarding back towards the center of the ring. Brandon is getting to his feet and looks up just in time to see Gordon flying through the air. Gordon wraps his arms around Brandon’s head and spikes him to the mat with a flying DDT.
Tom Foolery What a gargantuan impact with that DDT!
Preston Poppycock Atta boy Gordon! You show ‘im ‘oos boss!
Gordon walks over to Brandon and tries to cover him, but Brandon throws Gordon off of him before the referee can even begin to count. Gordon gets to his feet and waits as Brandon slowly does the same. Once Brandon is standing, Gordon runs towards him and jumps. Brandon catches Gordon in midair and holds him on his shoulder. Brandon grins as he marches to the middle of the ring before powerslamming Gordon hard onto the mat. Brandon immediately begins to methodically stomp each limb of Gordon multiple times. Brandon grabs Gordon’s leg and lifts it up, before stomping on the back of his thigh multiple times. Brandon throws Gordon’s leg down on the mat and jumps over Gordon’s body and lands a legdrop across Gordon’s face.
Tom Foolery Brandon is getting some much needed offense here in the early goings of this match, after taking a few lickings from Gordon already
Preston Poppycock I’d just as soon see ‘im get no offense at all. Brandon Macdonald is not my cup of tea
Tom Foolery Yes, you’ve made that quite clear recently.
Brandon stands up and drops a knee onto the head of Gordon, who gets his fists up to partially block it. Brandon grabs Gordon buy the arm and lifts him up to his feet. Brandon grabs Gordon by the arm and whips him across the ring. Gordon rebounds and ducks underneath Brandon’s clothesline attempt. Gordon hits the ropes again but is met with a spinning clothesline from Brandon, sending Gordon flipping to the mat. Gordon slowly rolls over on the mat as Brandon takes a few steps back, before running and kicking him in the stomach. Brandon drops down and once again grabs onto Gordon’s arm and tries to lock in an armbar. But once again, Gordon manages to roll over and end up on top of Brandon. Gordon throws a few big hammerfists, but Brandon blocks them and shakes Gordon off of him. The two men stand up and stare down.
Tom Foolery A good old fashioned stare-down!
Preston Poppycock Oi I love me a good stare-down like that one. Come on Tom my boy, let’s stare down
Gordon moves towards Brandon, who throws a left uppercut. Gordon takes a step back, dodging the punch. Gordon then throws a kick that lands to the side of Brandon’s chest. Gordon moves forward and grabs the back of Brandon’s head, bringing it down onto his upcoming knee. Gordon’s knee staggers Brandon, as he tries to regain his balance. Gordon runs at Brandon and jumps, delivering a flying knee that connects with Brandon’s chest. Brandon stumbles back into the ropes, and Gordon immediately begins throwing punch after punch to Brandon’s midsection. Gordon takes a step back and throws a spinning back fist, but Brandon ducks underneath it and runs at Gordon, grabbing him around the waist, lifting Gordon up into the air, and then slamming him down powerfully. Brandon stands up and drops a fist onto the face of Gordon. Brandon picks Gordon up to his feet and whips him across the ring. Gordon rebounds off of the ropes and Brandon wraps his arms around Gordon, lifts him into the air, and slams him back down with a spinebuster.
Tom Foolery Huge spinebuster by Brandon! He hit that one perfectly
Preston Poppycock It wasn’t that perfect, ‘e could use a lesson or two
Brandon reaches down and grabs onto Gordon, lifting him up and grabbing his arm. Brandon goes to whip Gordon across the ring, but doesn’t let go of Gordon’s arm. Instead, Brandon pulls Gordon back into a clothesline, taking Gordon to the ground. Brandon stands up and kicks Gordon hard in the ribs, before picking him back up again, and whipping him across the ring. Gordon hits the ropes but instead of rebounding off of them, he grabs onto them. Brandon sees this and runs at Gordon, looking to clothesline him out of the ring. Gordon ducks down at the last moment, as Brandon topples over the top rope. But Brandon holds on and lands on the ring apron. Brandon turns around to go back into the ring, but Gordon uses the ropes for leverage and kicks Brandon in the head, knocking him off of the apron and out of the ring.
Tom Foolery A big time kick to the head of Brandon by Gordon there, and they’re outside the ring now!
Preston Poppycock Now we get to the bloody exciting part of the match! Everything goes outside that ring, I’m tellin’ you this is where Gordon will make ‘is mark.
Gordon follows Brandon outside the ring, as the referee follows both of them. Gordon grabs Brandon and throws him against the crowd barrier. Gordon punches Brandon a few times against the barrier. Gordon then begins to deliver stomp after stomp to Brandon, who slowly goes from a seated position, to lying down, trying to block Gordon’s stomps. Gordon relents and moves towards the ring apron. Gordon climbs onto the apron and turns around, so his back is to Brandon. Gordon waits for Brandon to get to his feet, and when he does, Gordon jumps onto the bottom rope, springboards and flips backwards in the air. Gordon rotates and smashes into Brandon, sending both men to the ground outside of the ring. Neither men move for a few seconds, before Gordon begins to get to his feet. Gordon grabs onto Brandon by the head and lifts him to his feet. Gordon tries to lift Brandon up to hit the Skyfall Guillotine, but Brandon manages to block it and shove Gordon off of him.
Tom Foolery Gordon was oh-so-close to hitting the Skyfall Guillotine, but alas, it was not meant to be
Preston Poppycock ‘E’ll get it next time. There’s only so much running Brandon can do mate. Eventually e’ll ‘ave to fight Gordon like a man
Gordon charges at Brandon, who moves out of the way, causing Gordon to smash face-first into the corner pole. Brandon grabs Gordon’s head and twists it around, before dropping to the ground and connecting with the twisting neckbreaker. Gordon rolls over as Brandon mounts Gordon’s back and punches him in the side of the head repeatedly. Brandon quickly switches to body punches, making Gordon move his hands in an attempt to block the strikes. As soon as Gordon moves his hands, Brandon drops down and locks his one arm underneath Gordon’s chin, around his throat. Brandon squeezes tightly, locking in the rear-naked choke. Gordon struggles against the choke, but Brandon has it locked in fairly deep. Gordon slowly struggles to his feet, as Brandon keeps the hold locked in. Gordon immediately backpedals, ramming Brandon backfirst into the edge of the ring apron. Brandon releases the hold and grabs at his back, while Gordon falls to a knee, gasping for air.
Tom Foolery Brandon had that chokehold locked on for quite an amount of time, hopefully Gordon is going to be ok after that
Preson Poppycock ‘E’ll be fine. Brandon’s got no strength, bet it felt like ‘e ‘ad a turtleneck on
Brandon looks over at Preston, clearly having heard what he said. Brandon slowly pulls himself to his feet at the same time as Gordon. Brandon swings and connects with a punch to the skull of Gordon, sending him tumbling back into the announcers table. Brandon grabs the back of Gordon’s head and smashes it into the announcers table, causing Gordon to fall down to the ground.
Tom Foolery Preston my good friend I believe Brandon heard you
Preston Poppycock So what? I can say whatever I wanna say. What’s ‘e gonna do to stop me? Smack me wit ‘is purse?
Brandon turns around and looks at Preston, who stares at him from his position behind the announce table. Brandon walks over to him and rips his headset off and starts yelling at him
Tom Foolery It appears that Brandon did not take too kindly to the harsh words from my broadcast partner tonight.
Brandon and Preston continue to argue before Brandon laughs and goes to walk away, before spinning around and kicking Preson in the stomach. Brandon grabs Preston and delivers a huge flip piledriver, spiking Preson’s head off of the ground
Tom Foolery Great Odin’s raven, what an impact!
Brandon stares down at Preston, who lies motionless on the ground as medical staff rush up to him and push Brandon out of the way. Brandon smirks as he backs off and watches as the team calls for a stretcher. Brandon walks back over to Gordon and goes to pick him up, but Gordon elbows Brandon in the stomach. Brandon doubles over as Gordon shoves Brandon back towards the announce table. Meanwhile, Preston is loaded up on the stretcher and taken away, but gives a thumbs up to the crowd signalling that he’s going to be ok.

Tom Foolery Gordon escapes that hold thankfully, otherwise we could have had an early end to a stupendous match
Calvin Jones Now that was a show of brains by Gordon. In this match, there are essentially no rules, which means no rope breaks. Gordon knows that, and instead of waiting for the ref to break the hold, he used the ropes to pull himself out of the ring, actually forcing Brandon to release it. Incredible smarts.
Gordon takes a minute to regain himself before sliding back into the ring. Immediately he’s hit with stomps and kicks from Brandon, who doesn’t give Gordon even a second to breath.

Heather Thompson Ladies and gentlemen, Gordon Fury has won the first fall in this match!
Tom Foolery Success! Gordon leads one to nothing!

Tom Foolery Fury Impaler through the crowd barrier! Hot pot of coffee that was something else!
Calvin Jones It takes a lot of force to knock those over. I’m amazed that both men are going to be able to get up after that one
The two men lay in the crowd as security moves in to make sure that none of the fans try to get involved. Both Gordon and Brandon slowly get to their feet at the same time, and begin to trade punches as they walk up the stairs. Brandon ducks underneath a punch thrown by Gordon and kicks him in the side.

Tom Foolery Gordon just tried to kick Brandon’s head right off of his shoulders! Brandon’s not a soccer ball Gordon, show some respect
Calvin Jones He’s just trying to win this match Tom, and he’ll do whatever it takes!
Gordon turns around just in time for Brandon to tackle him and drive him full force into the wall. Gordon tries to escape as Brandon continuously drives his shoulder into Gordon’s stomach. Gordon drives his elbow in the back of Brandon, who eventually releases Gordon from the wall. Gordon runs and tries to deliver a drive by knee to Brandon’s head as he’s bent over, but Brandon catches Gordon’s knee in mid-air and swings him around by the leg, throwing Gordon over a merchandise stand and smashing through the wall of t-shirts and other clothes behind the stand. Brandon walks over to and climbed over the merchandise table. Brandon reaches down and grabs Gordon and lifts him up. Brandon positions Gordon in front of the table. Brandon sets up for a flip piledriver, but with his head between Brandon’s legs, Gordon powers up, sending Brandon flipping over top of him and landing on the table.

Both men lie in the wreckage that was once the merchandise table.
Tom Foolery It seems that that was the amount of force that you were talking about
Calvin Jones That was a vicious F-5 from Brandon. One of his signature moves. Now can he take advantage of a clearly injured Gordon and tie up the match?

Gordon gets to his feet and runs at Brandon, jumping and hitting a jumping leg lariat on Brandon, driving the back of his head into the concession booth counter.

Calvin Jones His head got sandwiched there, Brandon’s definitely losing some brain cells
Gordon grabs Brandon and drags him towards the escalator. Gordon goes to throw Brandon onto the moving handle belt, but Brandon manages to fight out of Gordon’s grip. Brandon uses his strength to overpower Gordon and shove him backwards onto the escalator.

As Gordon reaches the bottom, he gets off the escalator and begins to stumble away. Brandon sees this and climbs onto the escalator. Brandon runs as fast as he can down the elevated middle partition of the escalator. As he reaches the bottom, Brandon leaps into the air towards Gordon, who turns around just in time to get taken down to the ground with Brandon’s suicide dive. Both men lay on the floor as security continues to hold off anyone from getting too close to the wrestlers.
Tom Foolery A suicide dive off of the escalator! Look out below says Brandon
Calvin Jones These two men are taking this fight throughout the entire Yankee stadium. This is something else!

Tom Foolery No!

Gordon goes to grab onto Brandon, but instead Brandon pulls Gordon down into a gogoplata submission hold. Gordon desperately tries to fight the hold, but Brandon puts as much pressure as he can on it. Gordon reaches out in one last desperation move and grabs a garbage can that’s near the door. Gordon throws the garbage can on top of Brandon, causing him to release the hold.
Tom Foolery Gordon manages to escape at the last minute, he looked like he might lose it there
Calvin Jones I think you’re missing the fact that Gordon just HIT BRANDON WITH A CAR! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! AND HE STILL MANAGES TO LOCK IN A SUBMISSION.
Brandon slowly rolls to his feet as Gordon holds his throat, coughing. Brandon grabs the trashcan and empties it onto the ground. Brandon runs and kicks Gordon in the knee, before taking the garbage can and smashing it down on top of Gordon, so that it covers most of his body. Before Gordon has a chance to get the garbage can off of him, Brandon jumps up and dropkicks the trashcan, knocking Gordon to the ground hard.

Brandon tosses the garbage can away and picks Gordon up to his feet. Brandon drags Gordon over to a truck and smashes his head into it. Brandon walks over to the back of the truck and opens it, smashing the door into the body of Gordon and knocking him to the ground. Brandon looks inside the truck and sees a bunch of ladders all piled inside.
Tom Foolery Why in the name of a bottle of scotch do we have a truck full of ladders in the parking lot?
Calvin Jones For the earlier ladder match of course! Better to have extra ladders than not enough
Brandon grabs a ladder from the truck and pulls it out and throws it onto the ground. Brandon grabs another fifteen foot ladder and sets it up near the truck. Brandon grabs the other ladder and holds it across his chest. Brandon sees Gordon getting to his feet, and runs at him, with the full intention of smashing the ladder across Gordon’s face. Gordon at the last second dives down and clips Brandon at the knees, causing Brandon to flip over-top of Gordon and land head-first onto his own ladder. Brandon rolls off of the ladder and holds his face in pain as blood slowly begins to drip out of a cut on his forehead. Gordon stands up and walks over to the ladder, picking it up and then walking back towards Brandon. Gordon lifts the ladder up over his head, before throwing it down on top of Brandon. Gordon picks the ladder up again and throws it on Brandon one more time. Gordon grabs the end of the ladder and places Brandon’s knee on top of one side of the ladder. Gordon lifts the other side up, before throwing it down with all his force. Brandon yells in pain as his knee is sandwiched between the two sides of the ladder.
Tom Foolery A crippling blow to Brandon’s knee, that’s going to play a factor in this match
Calvin Jones Brandon injured his ACL two years ago in a match with Chuck Matthews, and ever since, opponents have tried their hardest to target it. Gordon’s been successful tonight
Brandon rolls around clutching his knee as Gordon stands up. Gordon walks over to Brandon and stomps his knee a few times. Gordon then jumps and leg drops Brandon’s head.

KICKOUT!
Calvin Jones It’s not quite enough! How in the world did Gordon kick out of that one?
Brandon gets up and grabs Gordon by the arm, dragging him over to a car. Brandon opens the door of the car and smashes it into Gordon’s head. Brandon grabs Gordon and drags him over to the doorway. Brandon sits Gordon up against the car, so that his head is resting inside the car. Brandon goes and grabs the car door and slams it shut as hard as he can. Luckily Gordon manages to duck down and just narrowly avoid getting his head crushed by the car door. Brandon kicks Gordon in the ribs a few times as Gordon crawls towards the door that leads backstage. Brandon watches Gordon crawl away, and then looks at the car beside him. Brandon turns around and looks at the doors to the outside of the arena. Brandon looks back and forth between Gordon and the doors. Finally Brandon shakes his head and walks back towards Gordon. Brandon grabs Gordon and launches him through the doorway into the backstage area.
Tom Foolery Brandon was looking at the door, as if thinking about making an escape, but decides against it and returns back to Gordon
Calvin Jones That shows serious dedication to this match. Remember, Brandon is going to be arrested after this match. He had a chance to escape and attempt to run away, but he would rather finish this match like a man. As hard as it is, you have to respect him for that
Brandon follows Gordon through the doors and walks backstage. Gordon is on his feet now, walking towards the opposite wall. Brandon grabs the fire extinguisher off of the wall beside him and walks back towards Gordon. Brandon turns on the fire extinguisher and sprays it all over Gordon’s face. Brandon then takes the extinguisher and smashes it hard into the stomach of Gordon. Brandon lifts the extinguisher up in the air and smashes it hard into the back of Gordon, sending him down to the ground. Brandon reaches down and lifts Gordon up to his feet. Brandon looks to lift Gordon up in the air, but Gordon reaches out and pokes Brandon in the eyes. Brandon lets go of Gordon, who immediately begins walking away, towards a big three-level construction scaffolding set in the hallway. Brandon finally opens his eyes and sees Gordon walking towards the scaffolding and begins to follow.
Tom Foolery I hope that Gordon is not thinking of going anywhere near that scaffolding
Calvin Jones Oh I think he is Tom. We’re in for a treat here
Gordon gets to the scaffolding and begins to climb up to the top level. Brandon eventually makes it to the scaffolding as well and begins to climb it himself. Gordon reaches the top of the scaffolding and walks to the other side, waiting for Brandon to arrive. Once Brandon gets to the top and stands up, Gordon runs at Brandon, throwing wild punches. Brandon dodges most of them, but Gordon manages to get his hands behind Brandon’s head and get the muay thai clinch. Gordon begins to deliver big knees to the skull of Brandon, who tries to block them. Brandon overpowers Gordon and gets his own clinch on Gordon, and begins to throw his own knees. Gordon grabs Brandon’s legs, trying to stop the onslaught of knees. Brandon grabs Gordon and lifts him up for a falling forward side slam, but Gordon manages to hook Brandon’s head on the way down and deliver a huge impact DDT that sends both men crashing through the wooden floor of the scaffolding. Gordon and Brandon break through all three levels of the scaffolding as they fall, before finally hitting the floor hard.
Tom Foolery By mine own mustache, look at the carnage!
Calvin Jones DDT through all three levels of that scaffolding! Look at all the broken pieces of wood surrounding the two warriors. Did I really just see that?

Neither man moves for a few minutes after that impact. The referee checks on both men, who are lying in a pile of wooden wreckage. A large group of IWF superstars walks over to look at the two men. Gordon begins to stir and slowly pulls himself to his feet. Brandon eventually does the same and the two men meet up in the middle of a circle made by the IWF superstars watching. Brandon and Gordon tie up and try throwing punches and elbows, but most of the shots are blocked. They separate, and Brandon runs at Gordon, looking to deliver a high knee. It connects to Gordon’s chest and sends Gordon stumbling backwards. Brandon runs at him and jumps up again, but this time Gordon dodges the flying knee. As Brandon lands and turns around, he’s hit by a spinning back fist thrown by Gordon. Brandon falls backwards as Gordon pounces, throwing big hooks that Brandon can’t block. Gordon pressures Brandon, who is forced to pull guard and force Gordon to stop punching. Brandon reaches up and manages to hook in a choke on Gordon, who accidentally put himself in a vulnerable position with his continued punches.
Tom Foolery Brandon has that choke locked in deep, Gordon needs to do something quick, or else he’s out
Calvin Jones Again, Gordon left himself vulnerable for only a second, and Brandon took advantage. Even after taking this kind of beating, Brandon still has the wherewithal to pull that choke off
Gordon gets to his feet as Brandon continues to hold the choke in, his legs wrapped tightly around Gordon to prevent Gordon from escaping. Gordon starts to run at a wall, but Brandon releases his legs and lands on his feet, still holding Gordon in a choke however. Brandon uses Gordon’s momentum to trip him and deliver a DDT onto the floor. Gordon’s head bounces off of the floor and he rolls onto his back. Brandon crawls over and covers Gordon, looking to even up the fall count. The referee drops down and begins to count. ONE

THR-
KICKOUT!
Tom Foolery Even after the choke, and a huge DDT onto the concrete floor, Brandon still cannot put Gordon away!
Calvin Jones That’s the champion desire right there Tom. Anyone doubting that Gordon Fury was championship material can eat their words after this match, win or lose.
Brandon gets up to his feet and grabs Gordon, throwing him out towards the stage entrance, which they had walked over to. The IWF Superstars watch closely but don’t go out onto the stage as Brandon kicks Gordon out to where all the fans can see him. Brandon turns around and looks at all of the IWF wrestlers, who slowly back away from him, looking afraid. Brandon cracks a grin and waves goodbye to all of them, as he quickly walks out onto the ramp after seeing SWAT team members approaching from a distance. Brandon walks onto the stage as he looks around for Gordon. Suddenly Gordon appears behind Brandon and yells at him. Brandon turns around as Gordon runs and jumps at Brandon, corkscrewing in the air and delivering an elbow smash to the head of Brandon, knocking him to the ground. Gordon gets to his feet as Brandon slowly does the same. Gordon grabs Brandon and lifts him up in the air, before delivering an inverted single knee facebreaker to the back of Brandon’s neck. Gordon drops down and goes to cover Brandon, as the referee follow Gordon to the ground.
Tom Foolery Dread Spike! It’s all over! ONE

THRE-
KICKOUT!
Calvin Jones Not for Brandon Macdonald it’s not!
Gordon slams his fists into the stage and looks at the referee, who holds his ground. Gordon stands up frustrated and walks a few steps away from Brandon. Gordon motions for Brandon to get to his feet. Brandon slowly gets to his hands and knees, before falling back down again and looking over at Gordon. Brandon slowly begins to stand again as Gordon motions for the crowd to cheer. They respond as Gordon begins to clap while Brandon gets to his feet. As Brandon turns around, Gordon begins to run at Brandon, lowering himself for a giant spear. But just before Gordon connects with the tackle, Brandon delivers one of the hardest knee shots ever witnessed, connecting directly with the skull of Gordon and sending him crumpling to the stage. Brandon drops to his knees, rolls Gordon over, and covers him. The referee drops down and counts.
Tom Foolery By god did you see that knee!?
Calvin Jones Gordon is completely out cold. I have never seen such a vicious knee in my entire life. I’m surprised Gordon’s skull didn’t just cave in.

The referee waves his hands as the bell rings and Heather Thompson speaks to the crowd.
Heather Thompson Ladies and gentlemen, Brandon Macdonald is the winner of the second pinfall.
Tom Foolery Next pinfall wins!
Calvin Jones And here comes the SWAT team
Brandon stands up and looks down at Gordon. Brandon reaches down and pulls Gordon to his feet and lifts Gordon up onto his shoulders in a fireman’s carry. Brandon walks down to the ring, as suddenly about thirty SWAT team members in full tactical gear walk out from backstage and begin to walk down the ramp and stand around the crowd barriers. FBI and DEA agents walk down the ramp and stand there, clearly wanting to make sure that Brandon does not get another chance to escape. Brandon throws Gordon into the ring and then turns around and grins at one of the FBI agents. Brandon then slides back into the ring and crawls over to Gordon. Brandon hooks Gordon’s leg as the referee drops down to count what could be the final pin.
Tom Foolery Gordon is still, out, we might have a new champion here! ONE

THRE-
KICKOUT!
Calvin Jones I can’t believe it!
Gordon kicks out of the pin, wiping the grin off of Brandon’s face as he looks down at Gordon in shock. Brandon drops down and immediately covers Gordon again, but again Gordon kicks out after two. Brandon grows frustrated and grabs Gordon by the head and lifts him up onto his feet. Brandon kicks Gordon in the stomach and positions Gordon between his legs. Brandon prepares to hit a flip piledriver but as he jumps, Gordon manages to power through and send Brandon flipping over top of him. Brandon lands on the mat hard as Gordon stumbles to the ropes and holds on to regain his balance. Brandon slowly gets to his feet and runs at Gordon, who suddenly jumps up and knocks Brandon back to the mat with a dropkick. Brandon gets to his feet and Gordon again takes him down with a dropkick. Brandon stands up once more, and yet again, Gordon delivers a final dropkick that sends Brandon rolling across the ring.
Tom Foolery How is Gordon even standing up right now, let alone taking the fight to Brandon? This is a truly incredible sight that we’re witnessing tonight
Calvin Jones Match of the year, and we’re not even done yet!
Gordon slowly gets to his feet and walks over to Brandon, lifting him up. Brandon immediately grabs onto Gordon and goes to lift him up in the air. But once Brandon has Gordon on his shoulder, Gordon reaches over and grabs the top rope. Brandon runs to slam Gordon, but Gordon’s grip on the rope causing Brandon to release him. Gordon lands on his feet behind Brandon, who turns around. As Brandon turns around, Gordon jumps and delivers a huge head kick that connects directly with Brandon’s jaw, knocking him flat to the mat. Gordon falls to a knee for a moment before standing up and walking in front of Brandon. Gordon waits for Brandon to get to his knees, and when he does, Gordon runs and jumps, delivering a huge enzuguiri, knocking Brandon back down to the mat. Gordon stands back up as the crowd cheers loudly in support of Gordon.
Tom Foolery The crowd is clearly behind Gordon in this match
Calvin Jones I think the sight of the SWAT team reminded them of the horrific acts Brandon has been accused of, and made them remember that they didn’t want to be seen cheering for him
Gordon walks slowly over to Brandon and lifts him to his feet. Gordon grabs Brandon by the arm and whips him across the ring. Brandon rebounds off of the ropes and runs at Gordon, who vaults over top of him. Brandon goes to rebound off of the ropes again, but instead grabs onto them, and safely flips himself over the top rope and onto the outside floor, to catch his breath. Gordon sees this and looks around for a moment, as the crowd cheers him on. Gordon runs and vaults over the top rope, backflipping through the air, landing on Brandon’s head and hooking it down for a gigantic impact DDT. Brandon’s head bounces off of the floor as Gordon hits the ground and rolls away. Brandon is motionless as Gordon slowly gets to his feet, the crowd cheering him on loudly.
Tom Foolery Gordon is in complete control of this match. All he has to do is pin Brandon and he’ll retain the IWF Championship and prove all the doubters wrong!
Calvin Jones I wasn’t sure if Gordon could pull this off, but now I’m more convinced than ever. He’s turned me into a believer.
Gordon walks over to Brandon and grabs him by the arm and guides him up to his feet. Gordon whips Brandon hard into the crowd barrier near the announcer’s table, as the SWAT team officers move out of the way. They seem content to let the match go however it goes, so long as they get Brandon afterwards. Gordon follow Brandon, who is slumped up on the crowd barrier. Gordon drives his knee into Brandon’s head three times, before lifting Brandon up and dragging him by the head towards the announcers table. Gordon grabs the back of Brandon’s head and slams it down into the edge of the announcers table. Gordon repeats the head slamming a few times, before Brandon gets his arms up and blocks it. Brandon elbows Gordon in the head, causing Gordon to take a few steps back. As Brandon turns around, Gordon immediately dropkicks Brandon in the chest, knocking him backwards onto the announcers table.
Tom Foolery Brandon attempts to get away from Gordon, but no dice
Calvin Jones Gordon is swarming him, not even giving Brandon a chance to breath
Brandon slowly gets to his feet as Gordon climbs onto the announcers table beside him. Both men stare each other down, standing on the Spanish announcers table. Brandon spreads his arms wide as Gordon stares at him. Brandon looks at Gordon and slaps him in the face. Gordon immediately unleashes with punches to the head and body of Brandon, trying to punish him for the slap. Brandon manages to get a grip around the waist of Gordon and goes to lift him up in the air, but Gordon finally manages to block one of Brandon’s takedowns. Gordon elbows the back of Brandon’s head multiple times, causing Brandon to release his grip on Gordon’s waist. Gordon gets Brandon’s head between his legs and grabs onto the back of Brandon’s fight trunks. Gordon drops backwards, piledriving Brandon onto the table, which holds firm.
Tom Foolery Piledriver on our neighbour’s announce table. I’d be surprised if Brandon didn’t shrink a few inches after that one
Calvin Jones Gordon hasn’t been known to throw a piledriver often, but in a match like this, you do whatever it takes to win.
Gordon rolls off of the table and looks at Brandon, who is lying motionless on his back in the middle of the table. Gordon grins and walks back towards the ring. Gordon slides into the ring and begins to climb the turnbuckle. Gordon perches himself on the top rope, as the crowd cheers him on loudly. Gordon takes a deep breath and then launches himself off of the top of the turnbuckle, backflipping through the air, and connecting with a moonsault on Brandon. The force of the moonsault sends Brandon crashing through the announce table, as Gordon crashes down on top of him. Neither men move as the referee checks on both of them. The crowd cheers as Gordon slowly rolls over and pulls himself on top of Brandon and hooks his leg. The referee drops down for what will surely be the winning pinfall.
Tom Foolery I CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT I’VE JUST WITNESSED HERE
Calvin Jones The referee just needs to make the count and Gordon will retain the championship! ONE

Tom Foolery IMPOSSIBLE!
Calvin Jones THIS MATCH CONTINUES
Magically, Brandon is able to lift his shoulder off of the ground! Gordon falls beside Brandon, in disbelief that Brandon was able to kick out of that. Gordon slowly gets to his feet and grabs Brandon, lifting him up to his feet. Gordon whips Brandon hard towards the steel steps. Brandon hits the steps knee-first and flips over the steps and onto the floor beside them, holding his knees in pain. Gordon walks over to Brandon and grabs him by the arm, dropping down and delivering a knee drop right to Brandon’s elbow joint. Gordon stands up and this time drops his knee right onto the chest of Brandon. Gordon mounts Brandon and begins to deliver punch after punch to Brandon’s already cut face. Gordon stands up and grabs Brandon, lifting him up to his feet. Gordon grabs the back of Brandon’s head and looks to deliver one huge knee strike to Brandon’s face, but Brandon gets his hands up just in time to block it.
Tom Foolery Brandon magically manages to block that knee strike from Gordon
Calvin Jones He’s lucky. If that knee connects, it’s lights out for Brandon
Brandon grabs Gordon’s leg and takes him down to the ground. But Gordon easily manages to roll Brandon over and get on top, landing a few quick hammerfists before standing up. Gordon lifts Brandon up and kicks him in the stomach. Gordon drags Brandon over to the steel steps, and walks up on top of them. Brandon tries to fight back by throwing a few big left hooks, but Gordon shrugs off the shots and manages to knee Brandon in the stomach, doubling him over. Gordon gets Brandon’s head between his legs once more, and grabs the back of Brandon’s shorts. Gordon goes to deliver another piledriver to Brandon, but just before it’s too late, Brandon powers up in the air, sending Gordon flipping over and falling to the floor behind the stairs. Brandon falls to his knees on the stairs to regain his composure.
Tom Foolery An opening for Brandon! He needs to capitalize
Calvin Jones The drive and determination of both of these men is more than any mere mortal man has. It’s superhuman
Brandon slowly gets up and climbs off of the steps. Brandon runs at Gordon and stomps on his head a few times as Gordon tries to get back to his feet. Brandon grabs Gordon by the head and falls backwards, delivering a swift DDT onto the floor. Gordon rolls around in pain as Brandon turns back towards the steps. Brandon walks over and lifts up the steel steps, holding them high above his head. Brandon waits for Gordon to get to his feet, as the crowd tries to warn Gordon. But no luck, as Gordon gets to his feet and turns around. Brandon runs at Gordon and drives the steel steps right into Gordon’s skull. Gordon immediately crumbles to the ground as Brandon lifts the steps up in the air once more, before throwing them down onto Gordon’s back. Brandon picks up the steps once more, smashes them into Gordon‘s back, and then throws them away.
Tom Foolery STEEL STEPS TO THE SKULL
Calvin Jones Gordon is going to feel those shots for the rest of his life! Getting hit with steel steps is not fun, getting hit with them multiple times is a nightmare!
Brandon lifts Gordon up to his feet and throws a stiff right jab. Gordon throws a right haymaker, which Brandon ducks underneath. Brandon wraps his arms around the waist of Gordon and spins him around. Brandon lifts Gordon up and delivers a big german suplex onto the floor, but Brandon doesn’t release his grip. Brandon spins around, stands up, and delivers yet another german suplex to Gordon. One last time, Brandon stands back up, still holding onto Gordon, and lifts him up for a german suplex. Only this time, Brandon releases Gordon and tosses him across the floor and sending Gordon rolling up into the crowd barrier. Brandon gets to his feet and walks over to Gordon, stomping on his chest and then bringing his knee into Gordon’s neck, yelling at him about how Gordon will never be the best as long as he’s around. Brandon releases his knee and slaps Gordon in the face and picks him up to his feet. Brandon kicks Gordon in the stomach and delivers a massive flip piledriver onto the arena floor. Gordon’s head bounces off of the floor and Gordon lays motionless on the floor. Brandon lies on his back for about a minute, soaking in everything, before rolling over and hooking the leg of Gordon.

THRE-
KICKOUT
Calvin Jones But it isn’t! Gordon got his shoulder up!
Brandon falls off of Gordon in shock, as the crowd cheers even louder. Brandon stands up and looks down at Gordon, his smirk gone and replaced with a look of rage. Brandon walks over to the ring and throws the cover up and begins searching for something underneath the ring. Brandon eventually pulls out a kendo stick, and walks back towards Gordon. Brandon waits for Gordon to get to his feet, and when he does, Brandon begins to whack away with the kendo stick. Gordon desperately tries to escape Brandon’s kendo stick attack, but Brandon is relentless in his attack. Brandon takes a few steps back, before running forward and bringing the kendo stick crashing down hard across the forehead of Gordon. Brandon laughs as Gordon loses his balance as his legs give out from underneath him, and he falls down to the ground. Brandon motions for Gordon to get to his feet, brandishing the kendo stick.
Tom Foolery Brandon’s got that kendo stick, and he’s not fooling around anymore
Calvin Jones This doesn’t look good for Gordon. Not good at all.
Brandon watches as Gordon slowly gets to his feet. Once Gordon is completely on his feet, Brandon runs and goes to swing the kendo stick at Gordon’s stomach, but Gordon catches the kendo stick before it connects with his stomach. Gordon stares down Brandon, who looks on in shock, before Gordon kicks Brandon in the knee. As Brandon loosens his grip on the kendo stick, Gordon spins around beside Brandon and delivers a huge Russian leg sweep with the kendo stick across Brandon’s face. Brandon’s head bounces off the ground and Gordon rolls away, still holding the kendo stick. Gordon stands up and looks over at Brandon, who is trying to get to his feet. Gordon begins to wail on the back of Brandon with the kendo stick, not allowing Brandon to get up to his feet. Gordon eventually stops, takes the kendo stick, and snaps in half over his knee.
Tom Foolery Where is Gordon getting all this energy from? I want to know, I need to get in on this
Calvin Jones This isn’t something you get Tom. It’s something you’re born with. And let me tell you, both these men were born with it and then some
Gordon throws the two pieces of the broken kendo stick into the crowd, and then walks over to the ring, going underneath. Gordon begins throwing things out from underneath the ring, clearly looking for something. Gordon eventually stands up, pulling out a box of LED light tubes and walking over to Brandon. Gordon opens up the box and begins pulling out four large light tubes, waiting for Brandon to get to his feet. As Brandon slowly stands up, Gordon grabs one of the light tubes and smashes it over Brandon’s head. Gordon grabs another one and smashes it on Brandon’s head, and then grabs the final two and does the same with them. Brandon’s face is a crimson mess of blood as he stumbles around on his feet, stepping on the pile of broken glass. Gordon grabs Brandon and hooks his head, before delivering a snap suplex away from the glass onto the floor of the ring.
Tom Foolery Brandon is a bloody mess! Those were FOUR light tubes, smashed over his head! Look at the blood, look at the cuts!
Calvin Jones Brandon has been known to take unreal punishment before, but even he can’t withstand much more of this.
Gordon grabs Brandon and picks him up. Gordon drags Brandon over towards the tacks, and looks to lifts Brandon onto his shoulders. Brandon manages to push Gordon away from him and avoid being powerslammed onto the glass. Brandon stumbles over to the edge of the crowd barrier and grabs a bag that Gordon had thrown out from underneath the ring and tosses it into the ring. Brandon walks over and looks to slide back into the ring. Gordon runs and clubs Brandon in the back with his fist, causing him to slump up against the ring apron. Gordon grabs Brandon and dumps him into the ring. Gordon takes a moment to catch his breath, before sliding into the ring himself. As Brandon slowly tries to stand, Gordon yells SLIDE TACKLE and runs at Brandon and slide tackles him, knocking him back down to the ground.
Tom Foolery A slide tackle by Gordon, and he’s regained control over Brandon thanks to those light tubes.
Calvin Jones I just don’t understand how Brandon is still even trying to fight back in this match
Brandon drags himself to the ropes and pulls himself up to his feet, using the ropes to assist him. Gordon does the same, and sees Brandon limping towards the center of the ring. Gordon runs and jumps into the air, twisting and delivering a corkscrew elbow smash to the skull of Brandon, sending him right back down to the ground. Gordon takes a few steps back and springboards off of the bottom rope, hitting Brandon with a shining wizard. Gordon looks to hit the buzzsaw kick to complete the combo, but Brandon has already fallen down to the mat. Gordon walks over to the bag that Brandon threw into the ring. Gordon opens it and dumps whatever is in the bag all over the ring. The camera zooms in and the fans gasp when they see thousands of sharp tacks in a large pile all over the ring.
Tom Foolery This is enough! Gordon is just trying to kill Brandon now. No more winning this match, this is about completely and utterly destroying his opponent
Calvin Jones But that’s the only way he’s going to beat Brandon! He can’t just expect to pin him and that’ll be it. He has to destroy him!
Gordon walks over to Brandon and knees him in the head. Gordon continues to walk over to the corner of the ring. Gordon slowly climbs up to the top rope and balances himself there, taking some time to catch his breath while Brandon slowly stands up. Brandon gets to his hands and knees before slowly making his way up to two feet. Gordon motions for the crowd and jumps off of the turnbuckle aiming right for Brandon. Gordon lands on Brandon’s shoulders and looks to his a hurricanrana, but Brandon catches Gordon on his shoulders. Brandon spins around and delivers a huge powerbomb to Gordon, right onto the pile of tacks. The screen shows Gordon as he arches his back in pain, before collapsing on his stomach motionless, as you can see all the little tacks stuck in his back. Blood slowly drips down little tiny holes in Gordon’s back. Brandon rolls over onto the tacks himself so that he can hook Gordon’s leg and attempt to pin him.

Tom Foolery I LITERALLY CANNOT TAKE MUCH MORE OF THIS
Calvin Jones WHAT ARE WE WITNESSING HERE?!
Brandon literally cannot believe that Gordon kicked out of that pin attempt. Brandon slams his fists onto the mat, and then immediately begins brushing tacks off of those fists. Brandon stands up and walks over to the ropes and slides out of the ring. Brandon walks over to the ropes and climbs out onto the floor. Brandon walks over to the timekeeper’s booth and grabs two chairs. Brandon walks back to the ring and throws one of them into the ring. Brandon begins to climb onto the apron as Gordon slowly gets to his feet. Brandon stands up on the apron and turns around to face the crowd. Brandon pounds his chest in confidence before turning around. As Brandon turns around back towards the ring, Gordon runs full speed and dives through the ropes, spearing Brandon off of the apron and directly onto the pile of broken glass on the floor. On top of that, the chair Brandon was holding lands directly on his face. Gordon rolls over and covers Brandon, who is lying on the pile of glass, eyes closed and not moving.

Brandon lifts his shoulder up.
Tom Foolery No. No. No. That did not just happen.
Calvin Jones The referee is saying Brandon kicked out before his hand hit the ground! That’s still a two count! Brandon is still alive!
Gordon stands up and stares down at Brandon in disbelief. He takes a few steps back as Brandon slowly gets to his feet. Gordon shakes his head as the crowd gasps when they see the blood and shards of glass sticking out of Brandon’s back. Brandon wipes blood from his face and grins at Gordon, and puts his fists up in the air. Gordon still can’t believe what Brandon is doing, and just stares at him. Gordon is finally awoken from his trance when Brandon punches Gordon right in the jaw. Gordon immediately responds with a few punches of his own. Brandon inhumanely eats the shots and just goes ham on Gordon, delivering easily three body shots per second to the stomach of Gordon, sending him into the defensive. Brandon takes a few steps back, before running forward and taking Gordon out with a massive clothesline.
Tom Foolery This is incredible. I’ve never witnessed a match like this in all my years
Calvin Jones I don’t think anyone has Tom. I feel honored to be even just a small part of this match
Brandon gets back to his feet and stares down the SWAT team with an evil grin on his face. It’s a terrifying scene as a completely bloody Brandon actually seems to scare some of the SWAT team with his grin. Brandon turns back to Gordon and knees him in the head. Brandon grabs Gordon and drags him into the ring and throws him in. Brandon reaches under the ring and pulls out something, before sliding back into the ring. Brandon holds up the cat o’ nine tails whip that he grabbed from underneath the ring as the crowd collectively gasps in shock, and then boos Brandon. Gordon slowly gets to his hands and knees and looks to get to his feet, only to be sent right back to the ground as Brandon cracks the whip across the back of Gordon. The whip isn’t very good, so it doesn’t completely cut open Gordon’s back, however there is still a cut opened from the whip. Brandon begins to rapidly whip Gordon’s back with the cat o’ nine tails, shredding Gordon’s back and opening up small cuts everywhere.
Tom Foolery I don’t think I can watch this much longer. It hurt me just to see the pain these two are putting each other through
Calvin Jones Brandon is taking a page out of Corey Casey’s book with that cat o’ nine tails whip. Gordon’s back is being shredded here, this is getting gruesome.
Brandon eventually throws the whip out of the ring and looks down at Gordon, who’s slowly rolling around on the mat, trying to get rid of the pain that’s clearly shooting through his back. Brandon lifts Gordon up by the head and holds him on his feet. Brandon pounds his heart and then points up to the sky in a rare sign of emotion. Brandon then hooks Gordon’s arms and twists him around and picks him up. Gordon is now upside down on Brandon’s back. Brandon runs and jumps, bringing Gordon with him and delivering the huge vertabreaker to Gordon. Brandon rolls over slowly and hooks the leg of Gordon, soaking in the moment of his victory.
Tom Foolery A Ram Slam, a tribute to Brandon’s late brother James, who once used that move as a finisher
Calvin Jones Brandon rarely shows his emotion in that ring, but lets it slip out there. But there’s no better time to do it, right before winning the IWF Championship on the biggest stage of them all

Tom Foolery IT’S OVER!
Calvin Jones NO! The referee says Gordon beat the three count! I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!
Brandon stands up and immediately turns to the referee, who holds up two fingers. Brandon proceeds to tear the referee a new asshole in the middle of the ring, pushing the referee all the way into the corner. The referee holds his ground however, declaring only a two count. Brandon grabs the referee and throws him across the ring, before sliding out of the ring and onto the floor. Brandon walks over to the chair that’s still lying outside the ring and picks it up. Brandon slides back into the ring and walks towards Gordon. Brandon lifts the chair and goes to smash it across the face of Gordon, who is slowly getting to his feet. But out of nowhere, Gordon jumps and dropkicks the chair into Brandon’s face, causing him to drop it and fall down to the mat. Gordon collapses as well and the two men lie face down beside each other in the middle of the ring, symbolizing the amount of punishment that both these men have absorbed in the match.
Tom Foolery These two are truly the best in the world!
Calvin Jones Find me anyone else who can do what these two men are doing in that ring, and I’ll call you a liar! This is a fight between a legend and a sure-fire future legend!
The crowd cheers loudly as both men slowly get to their feet. Gordon moves towards Brandon and throws a big head kick, which Brandon blocks. Brandon fakes with a knee and delivers a huge superman punch that staggers Gordon. Brandon follows that up with a spinning roundhouse kick to the jaw of Gordon, sending him crashing to the mat. Brandon picks Gordon up and hooks his head. Brandon lifts Gordon up for a suplex, but then drops Gordon, catches him on his shoulder, and powerslams him, completing the Purifier. Brandon points to the crowd after the move, before walking over to the corner of the ring and slowly climbing up the top. Once there, Brandon keeps his balance as best he can, but actually falls off and onto the mat. Brandon regains himself and slowly climbs back up the turnbuckle. Brandon jumps off of the top rope and tries to deliver a shooting star frog splash to Gordon, who moves out of the way at the last second. Brandon hits the mat chest-first and rolls back up to his feet holding his chest in pain.
Tom Foolery Brandon takes a big risk and goes for the Death from Above, and it does not pay off!
Calvin Jones Brandon rarely goes for that move unless he’s desperate. That just shows you what he thinks he needs to do to get Gordon to stay down. But on a side note, did you catch another tribute to Corey Casey from Brandon, hitting that Purifier? Truly stupendous.
Gordon reaches down and grabs the chair as Brandon slowly turns around. Gordon blasts Brandon in the skull with the chair, immediately sending him crashing to the ground. Gordon places the chair over the head of Brandon, who isn’t moving at all as he lies on his back. Gordon grabs the other chair from off the ring mat and walks over to the corner of the ring. Now it’s Gordon’s turn to climb the turnbuckle. Gordon balances on the top rope as the crowd cheers him on. Gordon jumps off of the top rope, holding the chair underneath his leg. Gordon lands directly on top of the chair that’s placed on Brandon’s face. Brandon immediately rolls around on the mat clutching his face in pain. Gordon rolls around holding the bottom of his leg. Both men are in serious pain, although it’s clear that Brandon is in much worse shape at this point.
Tom Foolery Can you say reconstructive surgery?
Calvin Jones Can you say severe concussion?
Tom Foolery Can you say WILL SOMEONE PLEASE END THIS MATCH AND STOP THE VIOLENCE?
Gordon slowly gets to his feet and stumbles over to Brandon. Gordon falls down beside him, before slowly getting back to his feet and bringing Brandon up with him. Gordon grabs Brandon’s head and twists it around. Gordon lifts Brandon up and delivers a reverse falcon arrow, driving his knee into the skull of Brandon. Gordon falls to the ground as Brandon collapses beside him.
Tom Foolery SKYFALL GUILLOTINE!
Calvin Jones Brandon can’t kick out of this. He just can’t. Can he?

Tom Foolery SOMEONE CALL MARVEL. WE’VE GOT TWO NEW SUPERHEROES THAT NEED MOVIES
Gordon rolls over and grabs his head in disbelief. He lies there for a minute, just wondering what he needs to do to beat Brandon. Gordon slowly stands up as he looks down at Brandon, who has turned onto his stomach and is slowly crawling to his hands and knees. Gordon takes a few steps back and crouches down, looking to hit the spear. As Brandon slowly gets to his feet, Gordon runs at him and dives in for the spear. Brandon gets his knee up and connects right on Gordon’s head, but it’s not as powerful as the one from earlier. Gordon stumbles backwards, still standing on his feet but clearly dazed. Brandon takes the opportunity to run and spear Gordon. The two men fly through the ropes and fall to the outside of the ring.
Tom Foolery Brandon spears Gordon right through the ropes and outside the ring!
Calvin Jones No doubt a tribute to his sometimes friend, sometimes enemy Chuck Matthews, with that Hollywood Impact spear
Brandon slowly stirs and crawls towards the ring. Brandon throws the cover up and goes underneath, looking for something. Gordon slowly gets to his feet and sees Brandon’s legs. Gordon grabs Brandon’s legs and drags him out from underneath the ring. As Gordon bends over to pick Brandon up, Brandon smashes Gordon in the stomach with a sledgehammer. Gordon lets go of Brandon and falls to one knee, clutching his stomach in pain, as Brandon stands up behind him. Brandon brandishes the sledgehammer as Gordon slowly gets to his feet. As Gordon turns around, Brandon runs and smashes the sledgehammer as hard as he can into Gordon’s skull. Gordon collapses to the ground, clearly unconscious. Brandon looks down at him and thinks about going for the pin, but decides against it and goes under the ring. Brandon emerges with a large red tank of gasoline in his hand.
Tom Foolery Please tell me he’s not about to do what I think he’s about to do
Calvin Jones A tank of gas, an announcers table? I think we better move Tom
Brandon walks over to the regular announce table and begins dousing it in gasoline. Brandon empties the tank on the table, before reaching onto the ground and picking up a lighter that he grabbed. Brandon flicks on the lighter and tosses it onto the table, causing it to shoot up into flames. Brandon turns back towards Gordon, with a terrifyingly sinister look on his face. Brandon grabs Gordon and throws his body into the ring. Brandon grabs Gordon and lifts him up onto his shoulder. Brandon climbs up to the top turnbuckle with Gordon still on his shoulder.
Tom Foolery Oh god, please, no
Calvin Jones Brandon is going to end Gordon’s career and life with this move right here!
Brandon slowly lowers Gordon onto the turnbuckle, and positions Gordon’s head between his legs. Brandon looks to the crowd, who are dead silent in anticipation for what is about to happen. Brandon strikes his thumb across his throat, before jumping off of the turnbuckle and delivering a flip piledriver to Gordon right through the flaming table.
Tom Foolery GOOD FUCKING GOD
Calvin Jones SOMEONE STOP THIS MATCH
Staff from the timekeeper’s booth immediately pull out fire extinguishers and douse the flames, but the damage has already been done. Once the fire has been extinguished, and the broken table parts been moved out of the way, the crowd can see Brandon and Gordon, both lying motionless on the ground. The referee runs over and begins to check on both of the men. For minutes the referee checks on them, and not once do either of them even twitch.
Tom Foolery Neither man has moved in minutes. Not even stirred. Not even twitched.
Calvin Jones I think the entire arena can hear us talk right now, that’s how quiet it is
Medical staff rush to the ring with two stretchers, and begin tending immediately to the two men. The crowd boos as slowly, both Brandon and Gordon are lifted onto stretchers. The medical staff begin to slowly wheel the two men away from the ring and towards the ramp, much to the chagrin of the fans, who make their displeasure known.
Tom Foolery These fans may be booing, but I for one am happy. This match has been incredible, but the safety of these two wrestlers is the number one concern
Calvin Jones I couldn’t agree with you more Tom. While I would love to see a winner tonight, I’d much rather see these two men live to fight another day
On the ramp, as the medical staff begin to pull the two men up, Brandon suddenly rolls over in his stretcher and reaches his arm over, placing it across the chest of Gordon. The crowd erupts when they realize what is happening, and the referee sees it too.
Tom Foolery What the hell’s bells is going on?!
Calvin Jones LOOK! BRANDON IS PINNING GORDON ON THE STRETCHER!
The referee runs over to the stretchers and begins to count the pin. ONE
TWO
THREE
Gordon lifts his shoulder up.
Tom Foolery I…What do I say?
Calvin Jones There’s nothing to say. I’m in shock at this point.
Tom Foolery GORDON GOT PILEDRIVEN OFF OF THE TOP ROPE, THROUGH A FLAMING TABLE. HE WAS UNCONSCIOUS, ON A STRETCHER. HOW IN THE NAME OF ZEUS DID HE KICK OUT?!
Calvin Jones Complete and utter pure instinct
The crowd collectively shits their pants in excitement as the referee holds up two fingers in the air. Brandon rolls off of the stretched and holds his hands in his face. Gordon slowly rolls onto his side, as the medical staff make it known to both men that they need to stop what they’re doing and end the match. Brandon pushes the medical staff away from him, and looks over at Gordon, who is getting off of the stretcher. Gordon looks over at Brandon, and the two men nod and begin to slowly limp down the ramp towards the ring, neither man even looking at each other. The two men limp to opposite sides of the ring and slowly crawl into the ring. Brandon and Gordon stand up and stare each other down across the ring. The arena is dead silent as the two men slowly move their broken and battered bodies towards each other and tie up in the middle of the ring.
Tom Foolery And after all of that, these two men have the respect to walk back to the ring and meet up again in the middle of that ring. They truly want to see who the best is.
Calvin Jones Regardless of what a monster Brandon is outside of this ring, you can’t help but cheer for him when you watch him wrestle. A truly phenomenal man in that ring, and his counterpart is no worse
Brandon and Gordon throw punches at each other’s head at a rapid pace, neither making much of an effort to block anything. Brandon grabs Gordon and drags him down to the ground and tries to deliver a knee to Gordon’s skull. Gordon blocks the knee and stands back up to his feet. Brandon gets up and eats a big knee to the stomach from Gordon. Brandon doubles over and Gordon grabs his head and twists him around and lifts him up for a reverse falcon arrow. Brandon flips over the back and escaped the hold. Brandon kicks Gordon in the stomach and jumps over top of him, looking to hit the flip piledriver. Gordon manages to drop down and avoid Brandon’s grip, causing Brandon to flip over-top of Gordon and land on his feet behind him. Brandon and Gordon turn around and run at each other. The two men hit simultaneous clotheslines, sending both men crashing to the mat. The crowd cheers as they watch more proof at how dead even these two men are in their wrestling skills. Both men lay on opposite sides of the ring, trying to get to their feet after the double clothesline.
Tom Foolery That double clothesline sums up this entire match. Both men giving it their all, and neither getting an advantage
Calvin Jones These men are truly equals in their skill. Nothing separates either of them.
Brandon and Gordon both slowly get to their feet. Both men are clearly running on empty after this unbelievable match. Brandon and Gordon slowly drag themselves towards the middle of the ring. Gordon throws a slow right hook that Brandon eats as he knees Gordon in the stomach. Gordon doubles over and Brandon uses absolutely every little bit of strength that he has to grab onto Gordon and flip over top of him. This time, Gordon doesn’t have enough energy to block it and Brandon connects with the flip piledriver, spiking Gordon on his head
Tom Foolery CLICK CLICK BOOM! THE FINAL MOVE
Calvin Jones Gordon is out cold. Cover him Brandon!
Brandon falls to the ground face first as Gordon lays in the ring, completely unconscious. All Brandon has to do is cover Gordon, and he’ll become the new IWF World Heavyweight Champion. After a few minutes of the referee checking on both men, Brandon begins to stir. As Brandon begins to crawl over towards Gordon’s seemingly lifeless body, a voice echoes over the loudspeakers.
Vinnie Paulos Hold everything!
The cameramen, referee and Brandon all turn their attention towards the stage. Vinnie Paulos, the General Manager of Underground walks out from backstage, he stands atop the stage pacing back and forth.
Tom Foolery What the hell is this?!
Calvin Jones That’s Vinnie Paulos, the GM of Underground!
Vinnie Paulos: This is something that I just simply can’t allow! Poor Alex and Maya are no longer in the building, which makes me the last remaining authority figure left standing! And as such an authority figure, I’m afraid I must interrupt.
Brandon looks on at Vinnie, clearly confused as to what is happening. The SWAT team and FBI and DEA agents look on and do nothing they simply stand by.
Vinnie Paulos: All the time I hear the same thing. Week in and week out I hear that Alex Dillinger is the man. People tell me what a great job he’s doing. Thats he’s changing the direction of this company for the better. That he’s undoing the things that Corey Casey and his sister did oh so many months ago. Well I’m sick of it! Whatever greatness you all see in Alex Dillinger, please, enlighten me. Because I don’t see it. He treats Underground like garbage, as if it’s a third rate show compared to Battlegrounds. He wouldn’t even give us the time of day if he didn’t have to. We have some truly great wrestlers on Underground, men and women who deserve to be seen by the world! And what do we get instead? My guys get snubbed for a man who wrestles once a month, who wrestled two matches and was immediately given the main event of the biggest show of the year. On top of that, he’s now wanted for murder, drug trafficking, and is the leader of one of the biggest drug cartels in the world. AND HE STILL GETS TO WRESTLE! Meanwhile, my guys get told to stand around, jam their thumbs up their asses, and watch what true talent looks like. This is not true talent. What we have is true talent.
Calvin Jones You know, he makes a good point. Underground has some truly special wrestlers, but they don’t get nearly the respect they deserve
Tom Foolery I don’t care! He’s ruining this match! Who does he think he is?!
Vinnie Paulos: So what I’m out here today is to make a CHANGE. IWF needs to change and I’m the man that is going to bring forth such change. No longer will we remain quiet and allow Dillinger to ignore our requests. Gentlemen if you will...
Suddenly through the crowd comes Dean Vandal followed closely behind by Chris Cryptic, Kenneth Mathews, Pariah, Halestorm, Adorabelle, Gilbert Gold, Nathan Propaganda, Chris Mosh, Bryan Blaze and Joey Miles. The wrestlers slowly climb onto the ring apron and stare Brandon down, who tiredly looks at all of them, unsure of what to do. The wrestlers climb under the top rope and into the ring. The referee walks over to them to attempt to get them to leave, but Gilbert grabs him and delivers a huge exploder suplex, sending the referee flying out of the ring.
Vinnie Paulos: I simply cannot allow Brandon Macdonald to win this match. A drug lord as our champion?! He’ll forfeit the title as soon as this match is over, because he’s being arrested! We need a champion who is here day in and day out. We need someone who respects the guys who do their part, something that he will never do. We need someone like Dean Vandal for IWF Champion.
With that, the men charge Brandon. As the men converge on him, Brandon desperately tries to fight back. Brandon pushes Dean off of him and throws a punch that staggers Kenneth. But Halestorm and Chris dive for his legs and take Brandon down to the ground. They begin stomping and punching away at Brandon. They pick Brandon up and whip him into the corner. Brandon collapses to the ground as Dean, Chris and Nathan hold him there. Kenneth takes a few steps back before running at Brandon and delivering a huge enziguiri to his head, knocking him down. Dean and Gilvert grab Brandon and lift him to his feet. Chris walks over to Brandon and hooks his leg and head. Chris yells loudly and hits an exploder suplex on Brandon.
Tom Foolery What the hell are they doing?!
Calvin Jones Chris calls that one the Master Exploder!
Tom Foolery Are you ok with all of this happening?
Calvin Jones I try to remain as impartial as I can, but I do have a soft spot for Underground wrestlers. Besides, he is right. If Brandon wins, he’s just going to have to relinquish the title.
The crowd boos loudly as Dean motions for his three comrades to pick Brandon up one last time. They do, and they hold Brandon up on his feet since he can’t even stand on his own. Dean raises his arms in the air, before jumping and connecting with a gamengiri to the jaw of Brandon, knocking him out.
Calvin Jones Grave Divinity from Dean Vandal, the Underground champion!
Tom Foolery I can’t believe my own ears and eyes
As Brandon crumples to the mat, Gordon slowly gets to his feet and pulls Dean’s shoulder causing Dean to turn around quickly. With a spinning back fist Dean instinctively hits Gordon in the temple dazing the champion. Dean throws Gordon on his shoulders and tosses him up kneeing him right in the jaw. Dean places Gordon’s arm across Brandon’s chest as Chris slides back into the ring unaware of what had happened to his friend. He drags the referee back into the ring. The Underground stars then stand together as Vinnie Paulos yells about how they are the future of the IWF. Together, they exit the ring and walk back up the ramp as the crowd boos loudly. None of the three men in the ring have moved even a little bit. Once the Underground wrestlers are gone, the crowd goes eerily silent as they wait for the referee to wake up.
Tom Foolery This is horse shit, complete and utter horse shit Calvin
Calvin Jones Hey, he’s the authority figure, not you! Nothing we can do about it
After a few minutes, the referee begins to stir. The crowd holds their breath as the referee slowly sees Gordon’s arm on top of Brandon, and raises his arm in the air to begin the extremely slow count.
Tom Foolery Not like this

Brandon gets his shoulder up
Calvin Jones WHAT?!
Tom Foolery YES! BRANDON KICKS OUT AND THIS MATCH CONTINUES!
The referee slowly holds two fingers in the air, signalling that Brandon indeed got his shoulder up before the referee counted the three fall. The crowd goes absolutely insane when they realize what just happened. Gordon is still face down in the ring, clearly unaware of anything that had just happened. Brandon is laying on his side, not moving, as if he only kicked out on instinct alone.
Tom Foolery Brandon isn’t even awake, I’m not even sure he’s alive, but somehow, someway, he found the will to kick out of that cover by Gordon!
Calvin Jones I don’t even think Gordon is aware of what just happened. He’s as out of it as Brandon!
As if on cue, the four Underground wrestlers storm back out onto the stage. However this time they are met on the ramp by three figures wearing Brandon’s old mask, who hop over the crowd barrier and stand in the way, blocking the entrance ramp. The figures remove their masks to reveal the faces, and mask, of Corey Casey, Molly Reid, and Ruben Ricardo Leon. The Underground wrestlers stare the three down, before Vinnie Paulos comes out and ushers his wrestlers backstage. They retreat, much to the excitement of the crowd.
Tom Foolery Corey, Molly and Ruben to the rescue!
Calvin Jones Those three are some of Brandon’s closest friends in this business, and obviously they came here tonight to show their support for him, even in the midst of all the accusations against him.
Corey, Molly and Ruben turn their attention back to the ring, where finally, Brandon and Gordon are beginning to move. The crowd cheers loudly as Gordon is slowly crawling towards the ropes on one side of the ring, while Brandon is crawling to the ropes on the other side. The two men lift themselves up and hang on the ropes, trying to get their balance. Eventually they turn and look across the ring at each other. The two men slowly limp towards each other and throw punch after punch, neither putting anything behind the punches, and neither making any effort to block any of them. They just continue to trade and eat shots from each other, as the crowd roars in approval.
Tom Foolery These two men are not holding anything back! It’s a fight to the finish!
Calvin Jones The next person who hits any kind of significant move is going to win Tom, these are two men who have absolutely nothing left in the tank
Gordon is the first one to take a risk as he tries to throw a spinning back fist. Brandon manages to duck underneath the fist and then kicks Gordon in the stomach, once again doubling him over. Brandon jumps and flips over Gordon, trying to grab him in mid-flip. But somehow Gordon blocks it and grabs Brandon’s head in mid-air. As Brandon lands in front of Gordon, his back arches as Gordon squeezes his head tightly. Gordon uses every single bit of strength that he has left to lift Brandon up over his head with a reverse falcon arrow, before bringing Brandon down facefirst onto his knee. Gordon hits the mat as Brandon bounces up onto his feet, before falling backwards, completely out cold.
Tom Foolery SKYFALL GUILLOTINE!
Calvin Jones GORDON REVERSES THE CLICK CLICK BOOM AND HITS THE GUILLOTINE! THAT’S IT!
Tom Foolery GORDON IS GOING TO RETAIN THE IWF CHAMPIONSHIP!
Gordon slowly crawls over to Brandon’s lifeless body, as the referee waits for the cover. Once Gordon gets close, he simply throws his arm over the chest of Brandon. The referee begins the pin count. ONE
TWO
THREE
[Ding Ding Ding!]
The referee signals for the bell for a final time
Heather Thompson Ladies and gentlemen, your winner and STILL IWF World Heavyweight Champion…GORDON FURY!
Gordon slumps over on top of Brandon, as the crowd goes absolutely batshit insane with excitement. The referee slowly slides out of the ring and grabs the IWF World Heavyweight Championship belt, and walks back into the ring. The referee takes one more look at the amount of blood and other weapons lying around the ring and shakes his head. The referee walks back towards Gordon and Brandon, neither of whom have moved one bit.
Tom Foolery Calvin, we have just witnessed history
Calvin Jones This could very well go down as the greatest match in IWF history, and we got to be a part of it
The referee bends down and tries to wake Gordon up and tell him what happened. The crowd continues to cheer loudly but slowly die down as the referee continues his work on Gordon. Eventually, after minutes of nothing, Gordon begins to get helped to his feet by the referee. The crowd erupts as the referee hands Gordon his title belt and explains what happened. Gordon finally realizes what’s going on, and grabs the title belt from the referee. The ref grabs Gordon’s hand and raises it to the sky as he holds the title up in the air with the other. The crowd roars in approval as Gordon staggers to the ropes and holds on to keep his balance. Gordon slowly stumbles over to the corner and climbs onto the second rope, using one hand to hold onto the top rope and keep his balance, while the other hand is used to hold his IWF Championship high in the air.
Tom Foolery Gordon deserves all the credit in the world for winning that match and retaining his title, and I congratulate him with all my heart. But let’s not forget that Brandon had this match won if it weren’t for the Underground wrestlers coming in and preventing it.
Calvin Jones Very true, but do you think Gordon asked them to? He probably doesn’t even know what happened, he was out cold the whole time. And in the end, Gordon is the one with the title, so there’s no use whining about what could have been.
Gordon slips and almost falls off the turnbuckle but catches himself. He turns around to see Brandon slowly pulling himself to his feet across the ring. Brandon looked in bad shape. His back was covered in cuts and his entire body was coated in blood. His face was a dark shade of red as he wiped the blood from his face and walked towards Gordon, who stood still across the ring. Gordon and Brandon stared each other down for a few moments, both men breathing heavily. Finally, Brandon reached out and extended his hand. Gordon looked at the hand and then at Brandon, before reaching out and shaking Brandon’s hand. The screen catches Brandon telling Gordon ‘Thank You’, before pulling him into a hug and whispering into Gordon’s ear. The camera tries to catch what Brandon is whispering to Gordon, but can’t get close enough.
Tom Foolery A rare handshake and congratulations from Brandon. I wonder what he meant when he said ‘Thank you’?
Calvin Jones I don’t know. What do you think he’s telling Gordon right now?
Tom Foolery I have no idea. We’ll have to wait and see if Gordon shares Brandon’s final words to him with the rest of the world.
After the hug ends, Brandon grabs Gordon’s arm and raises it into the air as confetti falls from the sky over top of the ring. The crowd cheers in approval as Brandon lets go of Gordon and falls back into the ropes, catching himself on them and clapping as the crowd chants.
“GORDON” “GORDON” “GORDON” “GORDON”
Tom Foolery Truly a phenomenal moment for Gordon Fury
Calvin Jones He was the underdog. People called him a transitional champion. People said he would never be able to hang with the top level of this company. But Gordon proved them all wrong. He retained his championship, on the biggest stage of them all, against the greatest wrestler in IWF history!
Tom Foolery This is the last time anyone will ever doubt Gordon Fury again. He truly is the best in the world after tonight’s match.
Gordon wipes a few tears from his eyes as he raises the title high in the air with both hands and the crowd roars in approval. Gordon slowly makes his way to the ropes and slides out of the ring. Gordon immediately collapses to the ground, as the referee runs over and puts Gordon’s arm around his shoulder, helping him walk up the ramp. At the top of the ramp, Gordon pushes off from the referee and turns around towards the fans. Gordon falls to his knees and holds the belt high in the air, as fireworks erupt behind him. As the fireworks end, Gordon slowly turns around and the referee helps him get backstage.
Tom Foolery Gordon just doesn’t want to leave the arena. Listen to these fans go berserk. They’re in love with Gordon. And you can be sure he loves them right back.
Calvin Jones He needs to go backstage though. Can you imagine the injuries that he is suffering from right now? I would be shocked if we see Gordon in many matches from now until Fallout. He definitely will need some time to recuperate.
The screen turns back to the ring, where Brandon still stands. He walks into the middle of the ring as the SWAT team and agents surround it. As the SWAT team members climb into the ring, Brandon dropped to his knees and put his hands on his head, grinning the entire time. The SWAT team stormed him and forced his hands behind his back. They pulled out a pair of handcuffs and cuffed Brandon, before picking him up and carrying him out of the ring. Half of the crowd was chanting ‘THANK YOU BRANDON’ while the other half was booing heavily.
Tom Foolery Listen to these fans. Split right down the middle
Calvin Jones You’ve got the fans who realize that this is Brandon’s final match in IWF history, and are thanking him for all that he’s done. But you’ve also got the other fans who will never cheer for him after what he’s done and become.
Tom Foolery Personally, I don’t condone anything he’s done or been accused of doing outside of this ring. But when the lights are on and Brandon’s in that ring, there’s nobody that I’d rather watch. So I will thank him for what he’s done for this company.
Calvin Jones I’m right with you there Tom. This man is a wrestling legend. Suspend all of what he’s done outside the ring, and just appreciate him for what he’s done inside of it.
As the SWAT team forces Brandon out of the ring, and the FBI agents walk over to him and start to guide Brandon backstage, Molly Reid runs over to him and kisses him before being tackled off of him by one of the SWAT team guys. Brandon looks over at Corey and Ruben, who are standing on the ramp staring at him. Brandon grins again and nods at the two of them, who nod back. Brandon turns around and is continued to be forced up the ramp. A riot team runs out from backstage and surrounds all the officers as fans begin to throw debris at Brandon and the agents and some fans actually start storming over the crowd barrier. The riot team tries to calm the entire arena down as the SWAT team and agents quickly usher Brandon backstage and out of sight for the final time.
Tom Foolery We better get out of here Calvin, these fans don’t look happy one bit.
Calvin Jones I couldn’t agree more. That’s it for us folks, Gordon is champion, Brandon is gone forever, and we’ll see you in two weeks when Battlegrounds resumes its weekly schedule! Goodnight world!
As the riot in the arena continues, the screen cuts backstage to a shot of the SWAT team leading Brandon down the hallway. The entire IWF roster stands in a line, watching in shock and surprise and some anger as Brandon is marched down in front of them in handcuffs. Brandon just looks at all of them and grins, as he’s being pushed towards the parking lot of the arena. The pay-per-view slowly fades out with a final shot of Brandon Macdonald, international drug lord, being taken away in handcuffs, never once dropping his smile.
