SEGMENTThe Experience Returns!?------------------------------------
{Umbrella by All Time Low starts rocking the speakers as Mandi Matthews steps out onto the stage, a bit overwhelmed in a good way by all the people and there warm reception. She jams a bit to the music and then she jogs down to the ring as the chorus plays.}
Because when the sun shines we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out 'til the end
{She slides into the ring and jams out the song with the crowd as they chant along.}
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella-ella-ella-ay-ay-ay
Under my umbrella-ella-ella-ay-ay-ay
{The music slowly fades as Mandi smiles at the crowd.}
Terri Morasco: Mandi Matthews is back with us. You gotta feel for her, Vasco. Sheās trying to move forward past this Zelda Knite pregnancy thing and she steps into seeing her brother beat up senseless.
Vasco Dias: Twenty Nineteen has not been kind to The Matthews.
Mandi Matthews: I have an update on my brother Jayson Matthewsās condition. Doctors have determined that he has suffered a broken finger, a broken nose and a broken orbital bone. Heās also suffered a major concussion.
{The crowd gasps and boos the terrible news.}
Mandi Matthews: But the good news is, weāre going to find out who did it. I have footage taken from Jaysonās phone rendering now back in the tech room. I havenāt seen it yet, but Iāve been told this video weāre all about to see might have the answer.
{Mandi shifts her attention to the ramp.}
Mandi Matthews: So Iām giving the culprit a chance to come out here and confess on his own. Maybe he wanted to make a name for himself. Maybe he had a perfectly good reason for attacking my brother from behind? Maybe Jayson suddenly caught on fire and the nice gentleman had to put him out? I donāt know, but now is your chance to really be a man and admit what you did.
{Mandi waits for the attacker but nothing happens. Allison Valance whispers in her ear.}
Mandi Matthews: Okay. Thank you. Well everyone, the video is ready. Roll it please.
{The lights go dark in the arena and the video is of Jayson as he gets ready for his return. He holds his phone and records himself with his cell phone.}
Jayson Matthews: Whatās up yāall. Itās Jayson. Just wanted to give a quick shout out before I head back out to the ring for the first time in awhile. Iām just so hype train itās not even funny. Itās really amazing that I could make this return here in my hometown of Detroit, Michigan.
{He grins wide and pats his āDetroit Madeā t-shirt.}
Jayson Matthews: But itās even better to return home. To get a new start. To refocus. After everything Iāve been through with this shoulder. Itās great to return back to where I belong-OOF!
{All of a sudden a huge blur rushes the scene and smashes into Jayson sending his phone flying to the ground. You can hear some sick thuds and cracks and then a bloody Jayson falls to the ground unconscious. Then a pair of boots step in front of the camera. A hand picks up the phone and you finally see the smiling face. Of AMBER COOKE!! The crowd gasps as Amber laughs.}
Amber Cooke: Blood for the blood God.
{Amber laughs again as the scene fades on the screen as Mandi seems confused.}
Terri Morasco: Amber Cooke attacked Jayson? But why?
Vasco Dias: I have no idea.
{The lights come back on to reveal Amber is standing behind Mandi!!!}
Terri Morasco: Wait! AMBER IS HERE!
Vasco Dias: Ahhhh!
{Amber barrels through Mandi with an elbow to the skull. She viciously assaults Mandi with stomps and punchās and then pulls her up and drills her into the ground with the Terminal Velocity. Mandi looks out on her back and Amber just follows up with repeated forearms to the jaw until security rush the scene and break them apart. Amber finally lets go and enjoys her work as she walks up the ramp. Mandi barely moves as blood trickles from her nose.}
Amber Cooke: Ha Ha. All bloody hail. Ah ha ha ha.
Terri Morasco: Amber Cooke just left her mark on The Matthews here tonight. But why damn it? Why did this need to happen?
Vasco Dias: I have no idea. Why donāt you ask her Terri?
Terri Morasco: Unm Maybe laterā¦.

Kate Steele vs Raven Wheatley ------------------------------------
Alison Valance: āThis next contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the #1 contendership for the Openweight Championship.ā
{The guitars of "Sober" By Tool start to echo across the arena as Mist flls the entryway before Raven Roses up from the floor when the main riff kicks in. stepping out smoothly rocking the horned motorcycle helmet as she smiles at the crowd a bit and moves towards the apron hopping up to grip the bottom rope and slid in feet first with a smooth slide on the mat before she rises again and moves to a corner, stripping off the jacket and Helmet as she salutes the crowd.}Alison Valance: āIntroducing first, from London, England and weighing in at 130 poundsā¦. Raven Wheatley!ā
{Monster by Paramore begins to blare all across the sound system and as it does Kate Steele along with her husband Todd Warren begins to emerge from the back curtain. Kate has a huge smile on her face as she waves the the cheering crowd.. She begins to sprint down the aisle as she slaps the hands of the fans.
Kate finally makes it to the ring and she quickly runs up the ring steps as she grabs the turnbuckle as hard as she can. She immediately leap frogs over the ropes and bounces about as the crowd cheers her louder.. She closes her eyes placing a single finger over her lips offering the Shhhh sound which all the fans just roar back.. She takes her place in the corner afterwards waiting for the match to begin.}
Alison Valance: āHer opponent, from Berkshire, England and weighing in at 110 poundsā¦. āThe Sirenā Kate Steele!ā
{As the bell rings Raven puts her hands behind her back and dares Kate Steele to try something, anything, which she does. But as she charges in Raven catches her with a knee to the temple on the way in and then right into a rolling kneebar which she sinks in tightly as Kate Steele screams out in agony and taps immediately.} Alison Valance: āYour winner, via submission, Raven Wheatley!ā

SEGMENTStrong Style Champion speaks ------------------------------------
{ We find James Gilmore standing backstage with Jezebel Robins, sipping on an Orange-Vanilla Coke as the IWF StrongStyle Championship sits firmly on his right shoulder. }Jezebel Roberts: Iām backstage with IWF StrongStyle Champion James Gilmore, who retained his title at Lineage against Elijah Lassiter under some very controversial circumstances, with the referee counting three even though Eliās foot was under the bottom rope. Can you give us your perspective on what happened last week?!
James Gilmore: Well dudette...what happened last week was a screw-up. I know it, Eli knows it, the IWF Galaxy knows it...and to be honest with ya, it sucks. When ya hear your opponentās fanbase chant BS and my own fanbase do the same thing...ya know somethinā aināt on the up and up. Hate to have that happen in a big match like that--really, I do.
{ James continues to sip on his favorite drink. }Jezebel Robins: You whispered something into Eliās ear after the match, and it left him smiling. What did you tell him?
James Gilmore: Simple...I told him that I was gonna fix this mess by givinā him a rematch at Legacy, that I was gonna have a lāil chat with the brass and see what I could do thatāll prevent a screw-up like the one at Lineage from happeninā again. So I talked to the suits and pitched an idea that Iām gonna throw out to Eli here and now.
Jezebel Robins: And what idea is that?!
{ James takes a healthy swig from his soda and tosses the emptied can into an unseen recycling bin before pointing to the StrongStyle title. }James Gilmore: While I donāt mean to diss this title in any way, when I was first cominā into this company in 2016, this was a rather unique title that had its own unique set of rules. Now you can win it by simply pinninā your opponent like all the other titles, and honestly...all I ever wanted to do since winninā this thing was to bring it back to the way it used to be defended. So Eli, take as much time as ya want before givinā the word, but the idea I pitched...is that at Legacy, youāre gonna have a rematch for the StrongStyle Championshipā¦
{ The Islander alum paused for a moment to catch his breath. }James Gilmore: ...under Man of Steel Rules--the way this baby USED to be defended! You gotta break my spirit...or knock my butt out cold. Hopefully, this settles the issue at hand.
{ James makes his exit, leaving Jezebel to write in her notepad. } ------------------------------------
IWF MENāS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP Rob Diamond vs Ethan King (c)------------------------------------
Alison Valance: The following World Title match is scheduled for one fall!
Terri Morasco: This match has been building one could argue since the roulette.
Vasco Dias: Ethan King has not been shy about the ways he has been trying to get a rose our of Rob Diamond. They have been going at this for a while now and this maybe the moment is all comes to a head.
Terri Morasco: Ethan King has been nothing short of insanely cruel.
{Wannabe by Spice Girls the Punk Goes 90's version hits the loud speakers. Rob Diamond comes strutting out through the curtain and does a little spin on his heels before coming to a stop. }Alison Valance: On his way to the ring, weighing in at two hundred and five pounds, he is the BLOOD SOAKED CINDERELLA OF PRO WRESTLING!!! JOKER IN THE PACK! ROB DIAMOND!!!!
{ Rob looks out into the crowd with a shit eating grin on his face before marching down toward the ring. He runs up the steps and hops right into the ring doing another little spin before running up to the ropes, putting one foot on the second rope and throwing up the metal horns nodding his head. He spins off the ropes and falls back into one of the corners of the ring, kicking up his legs to rest on the second rope and looks quite relaxed. }Terri Morasco: Rob didnāt mince words leading up to this match. He says he has Ethanās number and heās not afraid to face him in the ring.
Vasco Dias: Heās just mad because Ethan speaks ill of the dead.
Terri Morasco: Itās much more complicated than that. Spike and Rob were dear friends.
Vasco Dias: And Ethan and Andrew are friends.
{Lights dim as the opening riffs to Shoot to Thrill hit, and flashes of white light begin to pulse along with the music as it picks up pace. The stage fills with dry ice as Dawn steps out from backstage, smiling manically and rocking out to the music. She points to the crowd and tries to get them pumped up. When the chorus hits, she raises her fists in the air as she lets out a shout of excitement punctuated by a blast of simple white pyro around her. She holds that pose until the second iteration of "Shoot to Thrill" in the chorus, at which point she charges into the ring and slides in, spinning with the momentum to her feet as she urges the crowd to get to their feet and rock along with her. After a few moments she will settle into her corner.} Alison Valance: last to the ring standing at 6ā3āā and weighing in at 240 poundsā¦ the current reigning, defending WORLD CHAMPIONā¦ ETHAN KING!
Terri Morasco: Ethan has done nothing since entering the company but try to become the worst man on the roster.
Vasco Dias: Donāt be melodramatic. Ethan King is a dedicated wrestler, family man and business man. He doesnāt have time to navigate ever snow flakeās feelings.
{Ethan takes the championship belt holding it high letting the crowd soak in the image of him holding the belt before giving it to the ref who takes the belt, holds it to the crowd before walking over to Rob, who presses a kiss to two of his fingers before touching it to the belt.} Terri Morasco: This match is seriously personal for both men here. I canāt imagine a more fitting night for this to be decided then here at Spike Kane Remembrance night.
Vasco Dias: I can think of a better place. A pay per view maybe?
Terri Morasco: Really? Are you that bitter?
{the ref looks to Ethan who is standing smugly in his corner.}
Terri Morasco: This fight is going to be bloody.
{The ref looks to Rob who nods his head, looking forcused.} Terri Morasco: Rob looks more dedicated then he has since returning to the ring.
Vasco Dias: Arguable.
{The ref hands the belt to the time keeper and then signals for the bell. As soon as the bell sounds both men go rushing at each other, Ethan manages to hit Rob with a running uppercut sending Diamond back. Ethan grabs his and hits him with a pumphandle backbreaker.} Terri Morasco: Ethan is wasting no time here.
Vasco Dias: Why should a King waste time with the opinion of a sheep?
{Ethan goes for a pin with a boot on Robās chest
1
KICK OUT!} Vasco Dias: Ethan wanted Rob to know where he belongs, under boot.
Terri Morasco: You both disgust me.
{Rob gets up, angrily glaring at Ethan who smirks in response. Ethan motions him forward and Rob takes the invitation with a standing drop kick knocking Ethan back into the turnbuckle.} Vasco Dias: Rob is playing right into Ethanās hands.
{Rob hits him with a overhead belly to belly suplex knocking him to the mat. Ethan rolls out of the hold and hits Rob with a scoop slam.} Vasco Dias: Ethan knows his play here and he is not going to let Rob get the momentum he needs.
Terri Morasco: You donāt know that for sure. Everyone has a blind spot.
{Ethan hits Rob with an arm trap neckbracker. Rob responds with a punch to Ethanās face. Ethan moves back and Rob hits him with some punches and kicks that you would expect more from a street fight then a legit wrestling match. Rob appears to be holding nothing back as he unleashes hit after hit on Ethan.} Terri Morasco: Rob is looking a little unhinged here.
Vasco Dias: Because he is. Ethan is a respectable man and Rob Diamond is nothing more than a flighty has-been.
{Rob moves back and hits Ethan with a running big boot knocking Ethan down to the mat.} Vasco Dias: The brute.
Terri Morasco: Heās not doing anything that you wouldnāt cheer Ethan King for.
{Rob goes for the pin
1
Kick out!}
Terri Morasco: see, thatās how that feels Ethan.
{rob hits Ethan with a Dominicus Driver knocking Ethan back to the mat.} Terri Morasco: Rob is not letting Ethan get back up.
Vasco Dias: Like the bad man he is.
{Rob goes for the pin again
1
Kick out!}
Terri Morasco: Ethan is not going down here.
Vasco Dias: why should he? Heās the world champion?
{With a sound of frustration Rob moves back from Ethan, as Ethan gets back to his feet Rob hits him with a hip toss followed by a five knuckle shuffle} Vasco Dias: WE ARE GOING INTO THE MOVES OF DOOM!
Terri Morasco: Are you switching sides again Vasco?
{As rob turns to go into the third move of doom, Ethan hits him with a final tilt.} Vasco Dias: He stopped him! Has anyone ever been able to stop that before?
{Rob kicks Ethan in the knee causing the other man to hit the mat.} Vasco Dias: Oh I hope we are getting into an all-out brawl now.
Terri Morasco: you are twisted.
{Rob hits Ethan with a spinebuster. Ethan hiots Rob with a gutwrench suplex.} Terri Morasco: Both men are putting their all out here on the line.
Vasco Dias: But who will come out on top?
{Ethan hits rob with a Wildfire Suplex. Rob hits Ethan with a Last Chancery.} Vasco Dias: Neirther man is giving up here.
Terri Morasco: But this match is clearly taking a toll on both of them.
{Ethan and Rob are both breathing hard for a moment but Rob punches Ethan to knock him back. Ethan stumbles backwards but rushes forward with a snake eyes.} Terri Morasco: Neither is going down easy here.
Vasco Dias: One of them has to give up sooner or later.
{rob and Ethan grapple in the center of the ring, neither seeming to give up the high ground as they hold onto each other both trying to get the other to move.}Terri Morasco: This fight has been intense. Iām not sure who will come out the winner here.
Vasco Dias: Thatās because you lack vision Terri.
{The ref is distracted by a commotion on the outside with some people in the front row making a scene, Ethan moves his feet but Rob uses this chance to hit Ethan with a jawbreaker. Ethan goes to the mat, gets back up and Rob hits him with a SPEAR!} Terri Morasco: Rob is gaining some momentum here.
{As Ethan is getting back to his feet Rob hits him with a DIAMOND CUTTER! Without wasting a moment he goes for the pin

3!!!} Alison Valance: the winner and your NEW MENāS WORLD CHAMPIOPNā¦. ROB DIAMOND!
Vasco Dias: Boo! Boo I say!
{rob gets up, seemingly in shock that he won. As Wannabe plays over the speakers the ref grabs his arm and lifts it in the air before handing the belt over to Rob. Rob holdsonto it, dropping to his knees crying as the stadium explodes in excited cheers. Rob looks up at the ceiling, "THIS IS FOR YOU SPIKE" before the camera cuts to commercial.}------------------------------------
IWF WOMENāS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPLast Ride Match - Victory is achieved by incapacitating your opponent long enough to load them into the back of a hearse.
Kimberly Jackson vs Eternity (c)------------------------------------
{ We open on a close up shot of the hearse for tonightās match. We slowly make our way around to the back and the opened door where the casket would slide in. Then we switch to the commentators booth. }Terri Morasco: And here we are a that IWF Womenās World Championship match!
Vasco Dias: Itās been a long road to get here, Terri!
Terri Morasco: It sure has, Vasco. Kimberly Jackson earned the shot to faced Eternity here at the Spike Kane Remembrance show by running an absolute gauntlet of opposition.
Vasco Dias: Very true but that hot streak may soon come to an end as she prepares to face the champion in a Last Ride match!
Terri Morasco: The rules are simple, yet brutal. Incapacitate your opponent long enough to load them into the back of a hearse and close the door!
Vasco Dias: A lot of people feel this match benefits Eternity and I have to agree!
Terri Morasco: Kimberly has come up short in these types of matches in the past, it will be interesting to see how she adjusts here tonight.
{ The solemn beginning of "Roots" by In This Moment hits the pa with strobe lighting. Once the song kicks into gear Kimberly Jackson steps out through the curtain, throwing some fists before double pumping to some pyro. Kimberly takes a long, hard look at the hearse before cracking her neck. She struts down the entrance ramp and rolls in under the bottom rope, jumping to her feet and throw a jab/cross combo at the hard camera. }Terri Morasco: Kimberly seems unphased by the hearse.
Vasco Dias: Iām not so sure about that, her lingering look could mean concern.
Terri Morasco: Or determination.
Vasco Dias: True. She is an incredible athlete but I just donāt see how she can overcome Eternity.
Terri Morasco: Eternity has been damn near unbeatable since returning so this is going to be an uphill battle for Kim if she ever faced one.
Vasco Dias: Absolutely, Terri. Itās going to be an incredible match, that much is for sure.
{ The lights go out completely.
Heeheeheeheeheeheeheehuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhehehehehehehehehehehehehahahahahahahahahahahahaahaahaahaahaahaahaahaahaahaahaahaa...
The soft chilling female laughter changes the atmosphere in the arena completely before the opening bag pipes, tambourine and soft guitar lead a procession of somber blue strobe lights to dance in time with them. Thirty seconds pass before the lyrics to āThe Circleā by Blackmoreās Night begin, the blue strobe lights provide just enough illumination for us to see the purple coloured smoke slowly gathering to cloud the entranceway.
Purple smoke then begins to erupt from the back of and the windows of the hearse as the crowd looks over to the parked vehicle.
Eternity emerges from within the cloud of colourful smoke billowing out of the back of the hearse and stands up on the bumper blowing kisses. There is a mixed reaction from the adults, but the children seem to fear the shadowy woman who is wearing a black hat and a veil with her head bowed as she seems to lightly bounce halfway off the back of the hearse and slowly twirl toward the stage.
She stops in the middle of the ramp and takes a bow, taking her veiled black hat off and posing with it in her outstretched arms. She continues her journey down the ramp, skipping and carrying her hat in her right hand. She slides under the bottom rope into the ring and when she reaches the centre, she transitions into a skip, over to the turnbuckle where she hangs her hat on a ringpost, patting it.
She then skips to the middle of the ring and falls to her knees, keeping her head bowed for a moment and her eyes closed. she tilts her head back and slowly opens her eyes to the heavens. This gesture now triggers the lights to slowly be raised back up to normal levels as her music starts also to fade away. }Vasco Dias: Eternity seems absolutely ecstatic about the hearse.
Terri Morasco: Certainly more so than Kimberly.
Vasco Dias: Only a mad woman would be excited about the brutality we are about to witness.
Terri Morasco: And that is exactly what Eternity is.
Vasco Dias: That and quite possibly the most dominant, or at least one of the most dominant world champions weāve ever had.
Terri Morasco: That is for sure.
{ Blue Shoes, the referee for the match speaks to both opponents before standing in the center of the ring holding up the IWF Womenās World Championship! }Alison Valance: The following contest is a LAST RIDE MATCH! And it is for the IWF WOMENāS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP! Introducing the challenger, weighing in at one hundred and twenty eight poundsā¦ KIMBERLY JACKSON!!!
{ Kimberly bobs out of the corners with some jab/cross combos. }Alison Valance: And introducing the Champion, weighing in at one hundred and thirty seven poundsā¦ ETERNITY!!!
{ Eternity throws her hands up over her head in the sign of an X. }Vasco Dias: Paying respect to Spike Kane there.
Terri Morasco: Eternity has a weird obsession with the Kane family.
Vasco Dias: Weird is one word for it.
{ Blue Shoes hands the belt off to the time keeper and rechecks the opponents before calling for the bell! }Terri Morasco: Here we go!!!
{ Eternity and Kimberly circle out of their corners, each drawing closer to the other. Kim moves in fast looking for a leg sweep and a take down but Eternity blocks with a knee lift to the jaw of Jackson and pulls her right in for a Devil Lock DDT! }Vasco Dias: Woah! Eternity has Kim scouted right from the beginning.
Terri Morasco: This is exactly what Kimberly was talking about in her promo this week!
{ Eternity transitions on the mat and looks for the Epitaph arm trapped STF! Kimberly struggles and manages to break free before the move is fully applied. Eternity starts giggling as she stands up to her feet. }Vasco Dias: Eternity is having fun here toying with Kimberly.
Terri Morasco: Going for a submission just for the heck of it, it seems.
Vasco Dias: Eternity may come as crazy but sheās always got a plan. The submission, I think, was just to get into Kimās head.
{ Kimberly gets up to her feet and grimaces in Eternityās direction who still looks very excited. Kimberly shakes herself loose and starts to move around circling Eternity again only this time Eternity stays in the center of the ring. }Terri Morasco: Eternity doesnāt look too fussed with Kimberly right now.
Vasco Dias: Why should she be? So far Kimberly hasnāt given her a reason too.
Terri Morasco: Weāre only in the opening minutes of this match?
Vasco Dias: And already Eternity has demonstrated her knowledge of Kimberly.
{ Kim dances around Eternity and looks to swoop in from behind as Eternity stands with her back to Kim only Eternity manages to duck the rear naked choke attempt and instead grabs Kim with Tears of Sorrow! }Vasco Dias: Eternity knew Kim was coming and had the Tears of Sorrow at the ready!
Terri Morasco: Wow, this is very interesting.
{ Eternity gives Kimberly a golf clap as she rises to her feet. Kimberly doesnāt look very happy as she pulls herself back up. Kim decides to move in for a tie up, Eternity entertains it. Kim goes to transition into a side headlock but Eternity immediately over powers Kim with a snap German suplex! }Terri Morasco: Jesus! Eternity has an answer for everything!
Vasco Dias: Yeah, this isnāt going well for Kim at all!
{ Eternity drops down on her knees next to Kim and begins to beg her to stand up and fight. Kim shakes herself loose and then palm strikes Eternity across the face! Eternity smiles and then explodes with elbow strikes to the sides of Kimberlyās head, alternating with rights and lefts. }Vasco Dias: Eternity seemed to enjoy the fight Kim just showed!
Terri Morasco: And sheās enjoying this vicious attack even more!
{ Eternity pulls Kimberly up with her and shakes her head then laughs before planting a kiss on the forehead of Kimberly and then launching her across the ring into the turnbuckles with the Last Breath! }Terri Morasco: Oh! Kimberly did not land right after that Last Breath!
Vasco Dias: She could have some serious vertebrae issues.
{ Eternity rises to her feet almost giddy as she watches Kim struggle to stand up. Eternity gleefully skips into the corner where Kimberly is stand but Jackson explodes out of the corner with alternating palm strikes to the face of the champion! }Terri Morasco: Kimberly on the attack!
{ Kimberly is laying into Eternity hard with the palm strikes before moving to stiff body shots and then a roaring elbow to the face of Eternity! Kimberly grabs Eternity looking for a belly to belly suplex but Eternity boxes the ears of Jackson and knees her in the gut hard. Then Eternity grabs Kim for Dragonās Breath! }Vasco Dias: Jackson had a moment there but Eternity came right back with a counter.
Terri Morasco: Itās almost like Eternity knows what Kimberly is going to do before she does it!?
Vasco Dias: She very well may, Terri. I think itās time Kimberly starting thinking outside of the box and outside of the ring.
{ Kimberly pulls herself up using the rope. Eternity applauds the effort and moves in but Kim comes off the ropes with a roaring back elbow shot to the jaw of the champion! Kimberly grabs her for the belly to belly suplex and connects this time! Kimberly lets out a scream from her soul that gets the crowd amped. Eternity is up and Kim rushes her but once again Eternity is ready and catches Jackson with Ashes to Ashes!!! }Terri Morasco: Kim just cannot string two moves together into a formidable offence.
Vasco Dias: There is definitely something different about the way Eternity is wrestling tonight. This is the most dominant one sided contest weāve seen so far. If I didnāt know better, Iād say Eternity was bolstered by absolute confidence and self assurance here...like she knows she canāt lose...
Terri Morasco: Iām not sure how much longer Kimberly can last at this point. Sheās trying everything she knows.
Vasco Dias: And it isnāt good enough!
{ Kimberly is very slow to her feet. Eternity hits the ropes with joy and skips across the ring looking for a clothesline but Kimberly drops the elbow and backdrops Eternity over the top rope and onto the apron! Jackson hypes herself up and climbs out onto the apron. Kimberly pulls Eternity up but Eternity comes back to life with the Spiral-Plex on the apron!!! }Vasco Dias: OH MY GOD!!!
Terri Morasco: Kim had the upper hand for the moment but once again Eternity had an answer for the attack, this time seemingly by paying tribute to Maxine Valentine with that move!
Vasco Dias: And now theyāre on the outside, exactly where Kimberly doesnāt want to be.
{ Eternity peels Kim off the apron and onto the floor. She pats her on the cheek and says he is sorry and then spins her around, picks her up and launches Kimberly into the ring post with the Broken Windmill!!! }Terri Morasco: Eternity is putting the hurt on Kim!
Vasco Dias: Eternity needs to incapacitate Kim long enough to get her in the hearse and close the door, sheās well on her way.
Terri Morasco: Eternity has taken almost no punishment where as Kim? Sheās taken an onslaught.
{ Eternity frowns ar Kimberly and asks her if that is all she has to give in the name of the blood god? }Terri Morasco: Eternity invoking Spike Kane!
{ Kimberly pushes herself up, gripping her side as Eternity laughs and smiles. Eternity moves in but Kim connects with her jab/cross combo into a European upper cut! Eternity staggers for a moment and Kim snapmares the champion onto the arena floor! Jackson goes for the rollover neckbreaker but Eternity simply lays down and Kimberly doesnāt connect with anything and instead lands back first in Eternityās lap. Eternity immediately locks Kim into the rear naked choke that Jackson had gone for earlier! }Vasco Dias: Eternity basically taunting Kimberly now!
Terri Morasco: Sheās digging her claws deeper and deeper into the mind of Jackson.
{ Eternity starts to violently toss Kim from side to side with choke locked in until she decides to throw her off. Eternity stands up and almost looks sad at how predictable her challenger has been up to this point. }Terri Morasco: Is Eternity frowning!?
Vasco Dias: I think she expected more from Kimberly.
{ Eternity pulls Kim up but Jackson grabs her with an armdrag take down. Eternity gets right up and this time Kimberly grabs Eternity with a leg whip and sends the champion right into the crowd barrier! Kimberly gets up, visibly frustrated, visibly worn down but she isnāt ready to give up! }Terri Morasco: Jackson is on the attack now!
{ Kimberly grabs Eternity and pulls her up but Eternity just comes out of nowhere with Deliverance!!! }Vasco Dias: And Eternity knew exactly how to put that attack to a stop!
Terri Morasco: Iām starting to think maybe Kimberly is in over her head.
Vasco Dias: I thought that from the beginning.
{ Eternity seems pleased with the effort from her opponent and pats her on the back as she pulls Kimberly up to her feet. Eternity pats her cheek and then pulls Kim in for the Hammerlock scoop slam right into the ring apron!!! }Terri Morasco: Eternity is just working over the back of Kimberly hard.
Vasco Dias: I think sheās trying to literally break her.
{ Jackson doesnāt stay down for long this time and instead stands right up. Eternity seems surprised for a second then smiles. Kimberly lunges at her but Eternity moves and grabs Kimberly with Laid to Rest! Eternity pops up and so does Kim who seems even more fired up! }Vasco Dias: What is going on!?
Terri Morasco: I think Kimberly is fighting through the pain!?
{ Kimberly comes at the champ again who picks up Jackson for the Sudden Death! But even after that Jackson is still stirring and trying to stand up. Eternity tilts her head to the side then smiles as she walks around the side of the ring near the steel steps and reached underneath pulling out the nail studded bat she calls Spikey! }Vasco Dias: SPIKEY!!!!
Terri Morasco: This is about to get nasty!
Vasco Dias: This is about to get bloody!
{ Eternity gently swings the bat as she walks back over to Kimberly who is on her feet. Eternity rears back as if to crack Kimberly over the head but she swings and Jackson dodges! Kimberly connects with a European upper cut to the back of Eternityās head and the rips Spikey out of her hands!!! }Vasco Dias: Kimberly has Spikey!!!
Terri Morasco: But will Kim use him!?
{ Kimberly rears back as Eternity turns to look at her with absolute joy. Kimberly hesitates and then turns throwing the bat up to the ramp. Eternity launches herself at Jackson but Kimberly ducks the clothesline attempt and Kimberly grabs Eternity for a release German suplex on the padded mats! }Terri Morasco: Kimberly threw the bat away!!!
Vasco Dias: I think that was a mistake!
{ Eternity gets up but Kim is right there with the jab/cross and a European upper cut! Kimberly launches into the alternating palm strikes driving Eternity backward down the aisle. Kimberly grabs Eternity, spins her around and then launches her into the crowd barrier with a Northern Lights suplex!!! }Terri Morasco: Kimberly is finally putting together a string of moves!!!
Vasco Dias: But has Jackson taken too much damage already!?
{ Kimberly looks up toward the hearse and then back to Eternity. Kimberly pulls Eternity up to her feet and throws her hard into the ring post. Kim then connects with a European upper cut bounces Eternityās head off the ring post, busting Eternity open!! }Vasco Dias: Jackson showing her vicious side!
Terri Morasco: This may be Kimās best opening, if it bleeds, you can kill it!
{ Kimberly grabs Eternity and starts to walk her toward the ramp. Eternity pushes Kimberly off her and charges in but Kim connects with a big knee lift to the jaw, rapid palm strikes and then a stiff kick to the side! Eternity cringes and Kimberly grabs her for an Orange Crush Bomb onto the steel ramp! }Terri Morasco: Jackson utilizing her environment!
Vasco Dias: Iām surprised itās taken her this long!
Terri Morasco: Kimberly likes to wrestle within the rules even in extreme situations.
Vasco Dias: Which I donāt think is very smart considering the opponent.
{ Kimberly doesnāt look satisfied as she walks Eternity up the ramp and to the top of the stage where the hearse is parked. Kimberly underhooks Eternity and lifts her up for a ACE PLANT on the steel stage! }Terri Morasco: Back to back homages to her mentors!!!
Vasco Dias: One infinitely better than the other!
{ Kimberly pulls Eternity up and drags her toward the hearse. Kimberly goes to throw Eternity into the back but Eternity stops herself with both hands planted on the door frame and fires an elbow into the face of Jackson! Eternity turns and hits a big shoulder block on Jackson and then a Rib Breaker!!! }Terri Morasco: Kimberly was so close!
Vasco Dias: I donāt think she was close at all!
{ Eternity pulls Kim up but Jackson hits more palm strikes and drives Eternity backward and away from the hearse. Eternity is back near the far edge of the stage and Kimberly goes to grab her for a belly to belly suplex but Eternity fights her way out of it and instead picks Kimberly up onto her shoulders! Kim is fight with elbows being driven hard into the face of the champion but Eternity pushes through and both women GO OFF THE SIDE OF THE STAGE AND THROUGH PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT WITH A BROKEN WINDMILL!!!!! }Vasco Dias: OH MY GOD!!!!!
Terri Morasco: HOLY HELL!!!!
Vasco Dias: Iām not sure either woman is going to come out on the winning side of that!!
Terri Morasco: That just goes to show you how dangerous Eternity is and how crazy.
Vasco Dias: If you doubted it before you donāt now.
{ Eternity lays in the rubble laughing maniacally, her face a wonderful tribute to Spike, a mixture of warpaint and blood. Blue Shoes moves into check on Kimberly who hasnāt moved yet. }Terri Morasco: Is Eternity laughing??
Vasco Dias: Yeah. Yeah she isā¦ Jesus.
{ Eternity starts to pull herself, with an enthusiastic thumbs up to the referee,as Blue Shoes gets the okay from Kimberly that she can continue. Kimberly forces herself to stand but Eternity is there and takes her by the head and bounces it off the near by crowd barrier! Eternity then drags Kimberly down the side of the stage, stopping sometimes to bounce her head off the barrier again and again. }Vasco Dias: How is Eternity still moving??
Terri Morasco: God only knows.
{ Eternity throws Kimberly back onto the ramp. Jackson starts to crawl, she sees the studded bat just a few feet from her and begins to move toward it. Eternity stops and watches as Jackson crawls and looks over joyed. }Terri Morasco: Is Eternity going to let Kimberly get the bat??
Vasco Dias: It certainly seems that way!
{ Kim is within reach and stretches out but just as she grips the handle of the bat Eternityās foot comes down hard on the hand of Jackson! }Vasco Dias: Nope!
{ Eternity picks Spikey up and gives him a loving hug. Kimberly rises to her feet and charges Eternity with a shoulder block where Jackson picks Eternity up, runs her up the ramp and then a spine buster at the top of the stage! Eternity holds onto her precious Spikey as Kim rolls over onto her back breathing heavy. }Vasco Dias: I think Kimberly is just about gassed out!
Terri Morasco: Sheās taken a pretty vicious beating but just keeps coming back!
Vasco Dias: To this point but how much can she possibly have left!?
Terri Morasco: I honestly donāt know.
{ Kimberly pushes herself back up and grabs for Eternity but Eternity swings the bat up over her head, grips it with both hands and brings it down across the top of the head of Kimberly!!!!! }Terri Morasco: JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!
Vasco Dias: WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!
{ Kimberly staggers for a moment, blood begins to pour down her forehead from her hair line and then she just falls into a heap on the stage. }Vasco Dias: Iā¦ I donāt know what to say!?
Terri Morasco: There are no words for what we just sawā¦
{ The replay shows the swing and the hit again, itās clear the mid section of the bat caught Kimberly, most of the nails missing but one absolutely grazed her skull. }Terri Morasco: That is just sickening to look at.
Vasco Dias: For once Iām going to agree.. I donāt need to see that again.
Terri Morasco: Ever again.
Vasco Dias: Honestly, Kimberly could have a career ending concussion after that.
Terri Morasco: If sheās lucky.
{ Eternity smiles at the pool of blood around the head of Kimberly Jackson as Blue Shoes checks on the challenger. Eternity throws her arms out and screams āALL BLOODY HAIL!!!!!ā Much to the jeers from the crowd. }Terri Morasco: Eternity almost offering a sacrifice to Spike Kane?
Vasco Dias: No, not almost, thatās absolutely what sheās doing.
{ Eternity pushes Blue Shoes away and pulls Kimberly back up to her feet and wipes the blood off of her forehead. Eternity looks at the shimmering blood and then slowly wipes it down her own painted face, till it becomes indistinguishable from her own. }Terri Morasco: Eternity has gone too far this time!!
Vasco Dias: I donāt think sheās done!
{ Blue Shoes argues with her but Eternity pushes him away again and drags Kimberly toward the hearse. Eternity throws Kimberly onto the roof of the hearse. }Vasco Dias: Eternity has something truly evil planned here.
Terri Morasco: And Iām honestly afraid.
{ Eternity climbs up onto the roof and pulls Kimberly up to her feet again. Eternity looks at the windshield as the crowd boos her but Eternity shakes her head and instead pulls Kimberly up onto the roof of the hearse toward the rear of the vehicle. }Terri Morasco: Oh godā¦ Please donāt.
{ Eternity leans in close to Kimberly who can barely stay standing and whispers in her ear just loud enough for the camera to catch it āAll Bloody Remember...ā Eternity then picks Kim up in a blink and youāll miss it motion for the BLOOD GODāS WRATH!!!! STRAIGHT ONTO THE ROOF OF THE HEARSE!!!! }Terri Morasco: NO!!!!! Blue Shoes needs to stop this match!!!!
Vasco Dias: It doesnāt end until one of them is in the back of the hearse and the door is closed!!!
Terri Morasco: NO! Thatās enough! That is enough! The referee needs to step in and end this!
Vasco Dias: Kimberly knew the rules when she signed on for the match!
Terri Morasco: But you couldnāt have predicted Eternity would go this far to win!?
Vasco Dias: I could have predicted Eternity would sacrifice exactly what needs to be sacrificed on this night. Itās no less than what Spike himself would have done...God rest his soul...
{ Eternity isnāt satisfied yet as she helps Kimberly back up again. Kimberly is literally stumbling and falling into Eternity, her blood wiping all over the chest of Eternity who just smiles. Eternity picks Kimberly up slowly, enjoying the moment before driving her down into the roof of the hearse a second time with the DEATH KNELL!!!! }Terri Morasco: End itā¦ Just end itā¦
Vasco Dias: Iāve seen enoughā¦ Honestlyā¦ Please, just put her in the hearseā¦
{ Eternity rolls the limp body of Kimberly Jackson off the roof, the body of the challenger hitting the stage with a thud. }Terri Morasco: This isnāt good, Vasco.
Vasco Dias: Noā¦ Itāsā¦ Godā¦ This is badā¦
{ Eternity climbs down and pulls the seemingly lifeless body of Kimberly up again and gently places her into the back of the hearse. Eternity tries to shut the door but the damage to the roof is too great and the door will not close, it only swings about half way. }Vasco Dias: The door wonāt close!!!
Terri Morasco: Just end the match! Who cares!?
Vasco Dias: Itās the rules, Terri! The door has to be closed.
{ Eternity backs up slowly, her arms outstretched as purple smoke begins to pour from the underneath of the hearse and from the front windows. Eternity drops to her knees as the purple smoke pours out. }Terri Morasco: What is happening!?
Vasco Dias: I donāt know!!!
{ Eternity screams BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!!!!! heavenward ā as the lights start to flicker and there is a distinct rumble of thunder, before the front tires of the hearse begin to spin on the stage trying to gain traction before the vehicle launches itself backwards into the staging forcing the door closed!!!! Blue Shoes immediately calls for the bell as Eternity bends forward, bowing. }Alison Valance: Your winner and STILL IWF WOMENāS WORLD CHAMPION!!!! Eternity!!!!
{ Blue Shoes hands Eternity the World Title and she clutches it on her lap praising some unknown force, as the arena lights dim to a sombre shade of blue, and a ten bell salute slowly plays out over which the Imperitron cycles through memorable moments from the legendary career of Michael Patrick Kane, known to the world as Spike, but known to her as her entire reason for being in this world at all... }Terri Morasco: Iā¦
Vasco Dias: DID THE HEARSE JUST DRIVE ITSELF!!!
Terri Morasco: The rear end of that car is a complete wreckā¦.
Vasco Dias: DID THE HEARSE JUST DRIVE ITSELF!!!!
{ Blue Shoes and several other ring crew gather around the hearseās rear end, the rear door completely caved in by the staging, the rear window shattered, the roof caved in. Jake Conway also joins the crew trying to get to Kimberly Jackson as Eternity continues to bow on her knees. }Terri Morasco: I donāt even know what to sayā¦ Kimberly could be seriously injuredā¦ Or worseā¦
Vasco Dias: Terriā¦ The hearseā¦ DROVE ITSELF!!!
Terri Morasco: I know Vasco!!! I know!!!! But right now Iām worried about Kimberly Jackson!!!
Vasco Dias: Jesusā¦ She was in the car wasnāt she?
Terri Morasco: God I hope sheās okay.
{ Eternity finally rises as the ten bell salute solemnly concludes, the carnage on display behind her a fitting tribute to the twenty-two year career of the dearly departed Spike Kane as she raises the World Title over her head. } 
Well howdy there pardner.
