-GoT-
-A-
-MiNuTe?!?-
{Flashes over the titantron, as green smoke begins to fill the entry way. The arena goes completely blackĆ¢ā¬Ā¦and then}
~ExPLoSiOn~
-Looking Back At Me-
-I See That I Never Really Got It Right
- I Never Stopped To Think Of You-
-IĆ¢ā¬ā¢m Always Wrapped Up In Things I Cannot Win-
-You Are The Antidote That Gets Me By-
- Something Strong Like A Drug That Gets Me-
-H.I.G.H.-
{Cold by Crossfade plays over the loud speaker as out struts the Paragona of Americana , LA Johnny Stylez. Stylez moves with the rhythm of the music while yelling at the crowd. Naturally Stylez is met with a course of boos so loud that it almost shakes the arena. Stylez is dressed in a pair of baggy cargo pants and he is wearing a P.o.P T-shirt OutsiderĆ¢ā¬ā¢s style. On the front of the shirt is P.o.P in white bold letters with (Players of Perfection) written in captions. Stylez is wearing a pair of silver oakleys and he has a cigarette hanging from his lips. After dancing to his music and taunting the fans, Stylez makes his way down the ramp.}
-What I Really Meant To Say-
-Is That IĆ¢ā¬ā¢m Sorry For The Way-
-I AM-
-NeVeR MeAnT To Be-
-So Cold-
{Stylez arrogantly struts to the ring, stopping to blow smoke in the face of a few fans sitting front row. Stylez then puts his cigarette out, and slides in the ring on his stomach. He then shoots up and immeadily begins talking trash to the fans, who are letting him have it. Stylez walks up to the ring announcer and playfully slaps them over the head a few times, before walking over to the turnbuckle and laying across it pretending to fall asleep as he awaits his opponent and or the bell. }
Terri Morasco: Johnny Stylez making his IWF debut tonight against Nick Knight!
Vasco Dias: Nick Knight of course coming off a hard fought loss against Angel Blake last week.
Terri Morasco: Nick Knight is a legit veteran, itāll be interesting to see how Johnny Stylez matches up against him.
{ The opening chords of āMomma Said Knock You Outā hits over the arena sound system as Nick Knight steps onto the entrance ramp. āThe Hollywood Butcherā is showered with boos from the fans that at another time in another place adored him. Dressed in old school black trunks with and blackt-shirt that reads Uber Heel in purple . Nick slowly moves towards the ring some fans on the aisle still reach to high five the once fan favorite, but they do not exist in Knightās world. He is 100% focused on the battle ahead of him and never looks out from beneath the trademark towel draped over his head.
āThe Hollywood Butcherā reaches ring side and climbs onto the apron. Out of respect for the hollowed ground that his the squared circle he wipes his feet before stepping between the top and middle ropes. Ripping away the towel his stares (either across the ring or down the entry ramp) at his opponent as he bounces from foot to foot waiting for the action to start. }
Vasco Dias: You know Nick Knight is going to want to make an impact here.
Terri Morasco: Absolutely. He has been adamant he is above these types of matches, he isnāt going to be pleased.
Vasco Dias: Well now is the time to prove he is more than a show open guy.
{ Weāve got Grave Roberts on referee duty for this one and he calls for the bell. Nick comes right out of his corner with a big time lariat on Johnny and knocks him back into the corner. Nick begins to lay in knees to the gut on Johnny followed by several hard chops across the chest. }
Terri Morasco: Nick is hitting some heavy blows to start!
Vasco Dias: Nick is a twenty year vet, he doesnāt get paid by the hour!
{ Nick whips Johnny hard across the ring into the opposing corner where Johnny hits hard against the turnbuckles. Nick comes in fast with a big body splash against Johnny and rips him out of the corner with t-bone suplex! }
Vasco Dias: A real ring veteran knows less flesh and more dash gets the job done.
Terri Morasco: Well Nick is certainly going for the early win.
{ Nick grabs Johnny but Stylez hits him with a jawbreaker. Johnny hits Nick with a swinging DDT next! Knight gets back to his feet but Johnny is mounting a comeback with Curtain Jerker vertical suplex into a stunner! }
Terri Morasco: Johnny now on the offense!
Vasco Dias: Where has this guy been!
Terri Morasco: Making his name on the independents!
{ Nick is up but Johnny is on him with the Hero Killer reverse DVD. Johnny is starting to get some steam under him now as Nick rolls to the ropes to recover. Johnny hits a baseball slide that knocks Nick to the outside. Johnny follows Nick out now. Johnny pulls Nick up to his feet and hits him with a half nelos German suplex into the ring apron! }
Terri Morasco: Half nelson German suplex!
Vasco Dias: That was impressive!
{ Johnny rolls Nick back into the ring and makes the cover but Grave only gets a two count. Johnny heads to the ropes and hops onto the second rope. He waits for Nick to get to his feet. Johnny comes off the second rope but Nick catches him with an atomic drop and then head butts Nick directly in the nose! Johnny goes down and Nick makes the cover but itās only a two count! }
Vasco Dias: Nick knew where he was and got control back!
Terri Morasco: The sign of a true vet!
{ Nick pulls Johnny up to his feet and then hits him with the Non Dairy Creamer! Johnny is down and Nick makes a deep pin now as Grave counts. But again itās only a two count! }
Terri Morasco: Johnny is still in this!
Vasco Dias: Just barely!
{ Nick peels Johnny off the mat but Stylez fires off the Bitch Slap! Nick seems stunned and Johnny connects with a gut kick and then picks Nick up for The Best move Ever buckle bomb!!! Nick staggers out of the corner and Johnny plants him with a tornado DDT! Johnny covers but itās only a two count! }
Vasco Dias: Nick is not giving up!
Terri Morasco: And Johnny is going all out!
{ Johnny pulls Nick off the mat but Knight racks the eyes of Johnny Styles and then pulls him in for Welcome to Hollywood!!! Johnny is down and Nick covers but itās just another two count much to Nickās disappointment! }
Terri Morasco: This match is getting serious!
Vasco Dias: They want those points in the rankings! Wins matter!
{ Nick pulls Johnny up viciously and locks in LA LA LAND!!!! Nick drags Johnny down to the mat and Stylez fights as hard as he can but eventually itās too much and Johnny has to tap out. Nick gets right to his feet and demands Grave Roberts holds his hand up as his music plays.

Nighthawk answers Almir's latest challenge to meet him at the Sayed Estate
------------------------------------
{As Nighthawk sits on an anvil case at the Kiev Palace, he smiles coolly but with annoyance on his face. Clad in a bright-orange Shinya Aoki t-shirt, orange-and-cream-colored leather pants, and black work boots, the "Wrestling Genius" flips his long hair out of his face and leans forward.
}
Nighthawk: "Almir, you sent Haseem to me as an emissary, and I sent him back. Now, you are asking for me yourself. Fine. But as you know, I can't leave the tour of Europe right now. So how about this? After Spring Knockout, I'll see you at your estate. And we'll talk. Cool? Cool. See you then."

SINGLES MATCH
Brittany Williams vs. Candy Kane
------------------------------------
{ As Candy Kane awaits her opponent in the ring, āJump by Kriss Krossā begins to blast across the speakers. As it does Brittany Williams begins to emerge from behind the curtain being accompanied by her mother Crystal. Brittany offers a wide grin as Crystalās paparazzi following begin to snap photos of the two girls. Brittany grins taking in all the boos as she walks down the aisle wearing her tiara with a cape around her back. Her attire a glittering red and black mix. She slides into the ring moving her hands through her curly (nappy) hair. She takes off her tiara, and her cape. As she waits for the match to begin. }
Terri Morasco: Brittany Williams looking to tune herself up in time for the Iron Maiden!
Vasco Dias: Hard to believe itās that time of year againā¦
{ We cut to the announcerās desk, where Fiona McFly sits to the right of Vasco. }
Fiona McFly: And I figured Iād observe an opponent for myself.
Vasco Dias: Scouting much, eh Fi?
Terri Morasco: That, plus sheās out here to make sure that YOU behave yourself!
Vasco Dias: ...pffft, WHAT!?!
[DING!]
{ The match was a fast-paced affair, with neither woman gaining a clear advantage for the first five minutes or so. Weāre six minutes in, and theyāre both outside the ring and trading punches as Blue Shoes counts. When he gets to six, Candy rams Brittany into the steel ringpost and dumps her back inside the ring. She then proceeds to climb up to the top buckle and catch a staggering Williams off-guard with a high cross-body! }
Fiona McFly: Oh, thatās impressive.
Vasco Dias: This could be an upset right here!
{ Candy goes for the pinā¦ }
1ā¦!
2ā¦!!
THREEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWā¦!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Terri Morasco: Not quite, Vasco!
Fiona McFly: Brittany showing off some resilience. Can she capitalise on it?!
{ Candy stands up pissed. She screams at Blue Shoes as to why his counting was supposedly āslow,ā but all she gets is the dreaded two fingers! Brittany manages to pull herself back to her feet as the argument intensifies, and when the ref tells Candy to focus on the match...sheās too late to react as Williamās connects with the jumping impact DDT she calls the CORONATION! }
Vasco Dias: BOOM!
Fiona McFly: Welp, looks like itās game overā¦
{ Brittany goes for the cover and hooks the legā¦ }
1ā¦!
2....!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[DING-DING-DING!!!]
Terri Morasco: Solid win for Brittany as she goes into the 2020 Iron Maiden!
Fiona McFly: I, too, am looking forward to it. Itās been a long, long time coming for meā¦
Vasco Dias: I doubt you can pull it off like ya did in 2016ā¦
Fiona McFly: Doubt me at your own peril, lovely...
{ Kriss Krossā āJumpā begins playing again as Brittany celebrates her victory! }

Dirk Manly doesn't believe in Demons
------------------------------------
{ We interrupt this broadcast for an urgent message from IWF News and your host, Dirk Manly. }
Dirk Manly: Welcome to IWF News, Iām Dirk Many and tonightā¦ I have some shocking news.
Maria Lopez: Is it actually news?
Dirk Manly: Cover your ears kids, because what I have to tell you now will break your little heartsā¦
{ Dirk leans forward. }
Dirk Manly: Santa Claus isnāt real. Nor is the tooth fairy for that matter, come to think of it neither is the Easter Bunny.
{ Maria rolls her eyes. }
Maria Lopez: Do you have to ruin the minds of children?
Dirk Manly: Unlike you, Maria, I dress modestly.
Maria Lopez: What is that supposed to mean?
{ Dirk turns and nods at Mariaās unbuttoned shirtā¦ worn over another t-shirt revealing absolutely nothing. }
Dirk Manly: Iām sorry to break it to you guys but storybook monsters arenāt real, thereās no wicked witch, no gingerbread house in the woods and there sure as hell isnāt anything more than another clown under that clown mask Abraxes wears.
Maria Lopez: I might have known this is what this would be about, you told me you had dirt on a top level scandal involve Ed Donahueā¦
Dirk Manly: Iāll snapchat you those later. What the real story is, for those paying attention, is that Abraxes is nothing more than a stupid, special effects movie monster. I promised you all if IWF Management didnāt act I would and tonight, I am proud to announce the Dirksaster Relief Fund, ridding IWF of John Wayne Gacey cosplayers since 2020.
Maria Lopez: The Dirksas-ā¦ this is ridiculous, what are you even offering?
Dirk Manly: Iām offering any enterprising IWF superstars the opportunity to make a cool Ā£20,000 for removing Abraxes from the equation to keep the streets safe for me and your children.
Maria Lopez: Where will you get that from?
Dirk Manly: Wait til you see this photos of Edā¦ Thatās besides the point, act now, show the world that weāre not afraid of magic tricks and parlour games any longer andā¦
{ Suddenly thereās the sound of sparks and the set plunges into darkness, we hear a loud womanly scream followed by further commotion before finally the room is filled with torches. }
Technician: Itās just a blown bulb, are we alright in here?
Maria Lopez: Iām absolutely fine.
Technician: Then who screamed?
{ A few moments pass before another technicians replaces the bulb and the lights come back on revealing an empty set. A few second later Dirk pokes his head up from underneath the desk as another episode of IWF News comes to a close. }

SINGLES MATCH
Angel Blake vs Scott Handsome
------------------------------------
{ It Won't Suck Itself hits to strobe lights and streamers as Scott Handsome comes running out from behind the curtain playing air guitar and whipping his hair around. Scott slides on his knees in epic fashion then pops up to run down to the ring. Scott jumps to his feet and onto the second turnbuckle where he starts thrashing with his hair to the music. }
Vasco Dias: Iād like to welcome everyone to the funeral of one Scott Handsome.
Terri Morasco: Vasco!
Vasco Dias: What!?
Terri Morasco: You canāt say that!
Vasco Dias: Iām a truth sayer, Terri. Scott is about to get executed.
Terri Morasco: Itās astonishing you call yourself a commentator.
Vasco Dias: I prefer fact administrator.
{ All the lights in the arena as the crowd starts to buzz wondering who is about to come out next. Words blaze across the screen in red fire. }
āBlessed are the wicked who are healed by my hands.ā
{ The opening notes of Slipknotās āUnsainted begin to play as purple flames burn in a circle on the top of the stage. Slowly Angel Blake begins to rise from within the flames with his arms outstretched wearing a long black coat with the birthdate of his grandson embroidered on the back. As the lyrics start the lights begin to strobe purple in the arena. }
Oh, I'll never kill myself to save my soul
I was gone, but how was I to know?
I didn't come this far to sink so low
I'm finally holding on to letting go
Oh, I'll never kill myself to save my soul
I was gone, but how was I to know?
I didn't come this far to sink so low
I'm finally holding on to letting go!!!
{ The song kicks into high gear now and Angel steps out of the flames looking over to the crowd with a grin before looking toward the ring. He scowls as he begins to walk toward the ring, lifting his coat to walk up the steps. He stops on the apron and looks out toward the crowd as the song blasts. Blake throws his arms out and his head back as the arena lights go up to a blinding level. Blake turns and steps into the ring with confidence heading over to the far corner. The chorus comes back around as Angel stands up on the second turnbuckle and crosses his arms over his head in an X. Blake hops down and turns his back to the corner and waits in the ring for the match to begin. }
Vasco Dias: I always get a chill when God comes out here.
Terri Morasco: So weāre back to God?
Vasco Dias: Do you not watch the show?
Terri Morasco: I watch the show. I just didnāt realize we were pretending he was God again.
Vasco Dias: Pretending? Iām not pretending, Terri. Angel Blake is God.
Terri Morasco: If you say so.
{ Weāve got Grave Roberts on referee duty for this match. He checks in with both opponents before calling for the bell. Scott jumps out of his corner, ready to go and then Angel explodes across the ring and levels Scott with Divine Justice! }
Vasco Dias: Divine Justice to kick things off!
Terri Morasco: Blake has the best leaping knee in the business!
{ Blake stands over Scott, begging him to stand back up. Scott pushes his way back up but Blake grabs him as soon as he stands and hits a stalling Taraās Wings! Blake goes for the cover but Grave only counts two as Scott kicks out. }
Vasco Dias: I canāt believe Scott kicked out!
Terri Morasco: Handsome is new to IWF but heās trying to make a name for himself.
{ Blake heads to the corner and props himself up on the second rope. Scott is slow to stand up as Angel waits for him. Scott finally reaches his feet and Angel comes off the second rope with Divine Punishment!!! }
Vasco Dias: That has got to be it!
Terri Morasco: Angel isnāt being paid by the hour tonight!
{ Blake sneers as he looks down at Scott who rolls over to his stomach. Angel pulls Scott up around the waist and then dumps Handsome hard with Divine Wrath! Scott grips the back of his neck as he rolls over and tries to get back to his feet. Angel comes in fast with a Genocide Kick!!! }
Vasco Dias: Genocide Kick!
Terri Morasco: That kick has won Angel two World titles!
Vasco Dias: Technically speaking, Angel was the first World Champion by that name.
Terri Morasco: Iām aware.
{ Angel grabs Scott by the hair and helps him stand up. Blake makes the sign of the cross before scooping Scott up and drilling him with the DEADLIGHTS!!!! }
Vasco Dias: DEADLIGHTS!!!
{ Blake makes a lazy cover as Grave Roberts slides into position to make the count. ONE! TWO! THREE!!!! }
Alyson Valance: Your winnerā¦ ANGEL BLAKE!!!!
{ Blakeās music hits as he stands up. }
Vasco Dias: And Blake murdered Scott.
Terri Morasco: Vasco!
Vasco Dias: Metaphorically speaking.
Terri Morasco: You have to imagine Steve Awesome watched this match.
Vasco Dias: You have to imagine Steve Awesome just saw his future.
{ Blake calls for a mic as he stands over the fallen form of Scott Handsome. }
Angel Blake: GOD OR MAN!!!
{ Blake calls out with his booming voice. }
Angel Blake: Does it matter?
{ He asks as the camera focuses in on his pale painted face. }
Angel Blake: Does itā¦ Steve?
{ Blake drops the mic before pulling Scott Handsome up to his feet and then hitting him with the Deadlights for a second time! }
Vasco Dias: Jesus!
Terri Morasco: Thatās uncalled for!
Vasco Dias: Angel is sending a message!
{ Blake pulls Scott up to his feet again, lifts him again, and drops him with the Deadlights again before security comes out from the back to stop this attack. Angel grabs the mic as he rolls to the outside. Angel gets right into the face of the camera, a terrible smile etched across his face as he hisses. }
Angel Blake: Does it?
{ Angelās music plays as he drops the mic, throwing his arms out, medical staff attending to Scott in the background before we head to a commercial break. }

HANDICAP MATCH
Ethan King vs Canadian Rob Diamond and Lord Dominicus
------------------------------------
{ Emperor's New Clothes, Panic! At the Disco hits the PA as the lights begin to flicker and flash. Ethan King steps through the curtain and looks around the arena with a big smirk on his face. }
Terri Morasco: Ethan King is absolutely savage.
Vasco Dias: Ethan isnāt here to make friends, heās here to win matches.
Terri Morasco: At the cost of his opponents careers?
Vasco Dias: Whatever it takes.
{ As Ethan makes his way to the ring we are taken to a brief highlight of his match last week with James Gilmore. We see Gilmore getting dropped into the grave, the dirt being lowered, Rob and Fiona digging their friend up and then the shovel cracking over the top of Rob Diamondās head as Ethan laughs maniacally. }
Terri Morasco: Ethan King absolutely disgusts me.
Vasco Dias: Because heās a winner?
Terri Morasco: Because heās trying to end the career of Rob Diamond
Vasco Dias: If you want to be the king you have to take out the king.
Terri Morasco: Not like that.
{ Lord Dominicus and Canadian Rob Diamond are already in the ring as Ethan enters. Ethan paces back and forth as Tommy Knocker checks in with each combatants. }
Vasco Dias: You have to imagine Rob Diamond is watching this match from whatever hospital heās in so Ethan will want to send a message.
Terri Morasco: I think Ethan sent a loud enough message last week.
Vasco Dias: It can never be loud enough.
Terri Morasco: Well this match is handicap rules which means both Lord Dominicus and Canadian Rob Diamond can be in the ring at the same time.
Vasco Dias: I donāt like their odds.
{ Tommy calls for the bell and Ethan explodes out of his corner and cracks Canadian Rob Diamond with an upper cut that sends him flying out of the ring. Lord Dominicus tries to catch him but Ethan grabs LD with a huge spinebuster! }
Vasco Dias: Ethan King wrecking house right off the bat!
{ Ethan goes to the outside where CRD is trying to recover and knees him directly in the mouth. Ethan then runs CRD face first into the steel post and and hits him with a half nelson backbreaker! }
Terri Morasco: Ethan is unhinged!
Vasco Dias: Heās just getting started!
{ Lord Dominicus is back to his feet and heads to the outside but Ethan spots him and connects with another running upper cut. Ethan then quickly hits a snap release german suplex sending Lord Dominicus back first into the ring apron! }
Terri Morasco: Jesus!
Vasco Dias: That looked like it hurt!
{ Ethan begins to pull up the gym mats to expose the concrete floor underneath. He peels them all the way back as CRD starts to get to his feet. Ethan comes in with a running upper cut then underhooks CRD and hits him with a Wildfire Suplex on the exposed concrete floor! }
Vasco Dias: OH MY GOD!
Terri Morasco: Canadian Rob Diamondās head just bounced off the concrete!
{ Ethan isnāt satisfied as he pulls CRD back to his feet and hits him with another Wildfire Suplex on the exposed concrete! }
Terri Morasco: Another wildfire suplex!?
Vasco Dias: Ethan is looking to take out the competition!

Vasco Dias: Canadian Rob Diamond has to be dead!!!!
Terri Morasco: Jesusā¦ This is getting uglyā¦
Vasco Dias: Ethan King is sending a very loud message to Rob Diamond right now.
{ Ethan King turns his attention back to Lord Dominicus. He pulls Dominicus up and runs him into the ring post then whips him around and throws Dominicus into the crowd barrier. Ethan picks Dominicus up for a Snake Eyes across the barrier and then grabs him for a Russian leg sweep onto the padded floor! }
Vasco Dias: Ethan is just dissecting Lord Dominicus!
Terri Morasco: Heās murdering them!
{ Ethan drags Dominicus back up to his feet and throws him onto the apron. Ethan climbs up and slowly helps Dominicus to his feet. Ethan upper cuts Dominicus, spinning him around and then grabs him for a Wildfire Suplex on the apron!!! }
Terri Morasco: You know Ethan is spamming the snap dragon suplex to taunt Rob?
Vasco Dias: Itās a move Rob has been perfecting for a while and clearly Ethan wants Rob to know how deadly he is with it.
{ Ethan pushes Lord Dominicus into the ring and rolls after him. Lord Dominicus can barely get to his feet but when he does Ethan hits BLACK ICE! Ethan shakes his head though and pulls Lord Dominicus up again this time for BEND THE KNEE!!! But Ethan isnāt done. He pulls Lord Dominicus up one more time for the LONG NIGHT! Lord Dominicus is clearly out and Tommy Knocker calls for the bell! }
Vasco Dias: Ethan King wins!
Terri Morasco: But he isnāt done!
{ Ethan continues to hold the Long Night on Lord Dominicus until Tommy Knocker threatens to overturn the decision. Ethan lets go and gets to his feet and starts to laugh. }
Terri Morasco: Absolutely disgusting.
Vasco Dias: Ethan King is done frigging around.

Ethan King: Wouldā¦ The REALā¦ Rob Diamondā¦ PLEASE STAND UP!!!!
{ He begins to laugh again when his music is suddenly interrupted and the face of Rob Diamond appears on the Imperitron. }
Rob Diamond: You want me to stand up!?
{ Ethan nods his head emphatically. }
Rob Diamond: Iāll stand the FUCK up at Spring Knockout! Cleared or not I am going to BEAT YOUR ASS!!!!

JayMat wants a rematch!
------------------------------------
{The drum fill kicks in the door and the guitar riff of 311ās Perfect Mistake starts blasting over the PA system.}
āListen Up!ā
{The arena lights start changing from orange to black on the beat and Jayson Matthews comes bouncing from behind the curtain and head banging to the riff. He jams to the verse as he starts to walk down the ramp, slapping fives with as many fans as he can on either side. }
This is the next stage, we turn the page
We're gonna wreck a place when we take the stage
Roll up your sleeves, get down with me
It's going off in the pit like you wouldn't believe
Allison Valance: Weighing in at 200 pounds, hailing from Detroit, Michigan.ā¦ā¦JAYSON MATTHEWS!
{Jayson stands at the end of the ramp and stares into the ring and he starts to bounce up and down and hypes himself up and as soon as the chorus hits he dives into the ring forward rolls onto his feet and runs over to the side opposite the ramp and leans over the ring While the lights strobe orange and black.}
āOhhhhhhhhhh
See in it my eyes
Hold it in my hands
All those days that you wasted away
There was no one to blame
It's a perfect mistake
{He hops up on the turnbuckle and points to the crowd with his other hand. Thanking the fans for the cheers..}
Terri Morasco: And here is Jayson Matthews. You know, this guy had the match of his life last week at Open Fight Night but it wasnāt meant to be.
Vasco Dias: Well, the champ got himself into some legal issues.
Terri Morasco: Steve Awesome got a D.U.I letās not tip toe around that damn fact. Steve was in jail instead of wrestling Jayson Matthews.
Vasco Dias: Dont say that Terri! It makes Steve look bad!
Terri Morasco: oh shut up, Vasco.
Vasco Dias: *indignant gasp*
{Jayson Matthews holds a microphone in his hand and he paces back and forth in the ring.}
Jayson Matthews: Last week, I was supposed to get in the ring with Steve Awesome.ā
{He sighs.}
Jayson Matthews: I was supposed to fight Steve, and I was just so pumped that I had the match, I was so ready to just ball up my fist and knock his ass out, that I honestly donāt remember if the world title was even on the line.ā
{Jayson shrugs his shoulders.}
Jayson Matthews: It wouldn't have mattered if it wasn't. I donāt want to fight Steve Awesome because he is the world champion right now. It does boil my blood just like everyone else. It does make me furious to think of all the people who had to suffer so Steve could get where he is.ā
{Jayson stops and looks into the hard camera.}
Jayson Matthews: It pisses me off that Steve can do all these things to the people I love and care about and he just gets away with it scott damn free!
{Jayson throws his free arm up in utter frustration.}
Jayson Matthews: Instead he gets a world friggen title.
{Jayson rubs his face and then shoots a palm through his hair.}
Jayson Matthews: Iād like to take that belt away from him just like every one of you guys in the back right now. But im not here to hot shot myself to the belt. Im not here to cut lines. I know I just came back and I dont exactly deserve a world title shot, so to be honest I dont care if management even put the belt on the line. I just want my crack at Steve Awesome.
{You can sense the anger starting to grow in Jayson as he paces even quicker.}
Jayson Matthews: I want my crack at Steve Awesome in a match. For all the things heās done not only to my friends but MY family. I have been harboring these feelings for along time. And honestly I just want my chance to punch Steve Awesome in the face. I had my opportunity at Open Fight Night, but Steve Awesome got himself a D.U.I. He got arrested! Can you believe that?ā
{Jayson chuckles a bit.}
Jayson Matthews: The Face of the Franchise got himself a mug shot!
{Jayson shakes his head.}
Jayson Matthews: Thatās our world champion everyone.
{He shakes his head again.}
Jayson Matthews: Itās pathetic. I want a rematch. World title or no world title. And I know management is pissed.I know I've heard the words suspension and firing and stripping the title from him and all that other stuff, but im here to make a public stance and say that the staff should NOT do any of that stuff. I know he deserves it, but he deserves so much more than being stripped of the title. I just feel like, doing that now would be a cop out. It would be a cop out for every person in the back who still wants a chance to kick his ass.ā
{Suddenly, āWhat you Gotā by Reveille, starts to play over the speakers as Eddy D starts to make his way down to the ring.}
Terri Morasco: Looks like we got some management here to set things straight.
Vasco Dias: Yeah, like kicking this whiny fool Jayson Matthews out of the ring already.
Eddy D: Jayson Matthews, we have been listening to your requests. Jess and I, we want to give the fans exactly what they want. And we believe, what they want is someone to finally step up and beat Steveās ass. So Jayson Matthewsā¦..you have your rematch. At Spring Frolic, for the IWF World Championship!ā
{The crowd pop and Jayson jumps around and celebrates.}
Eddy D: And then, Jayson, I know you know Steveās weakness, so when you use it and take the world title from him we can all kick his ass to the curb!ā
{Another crowd pop as Eddy holds up Jaysonās arm.}
Terri Morasco: Well, it looks like Jayson has his match. He knows Steveās weakness as well Vasco.
Vasco Dias: Jayson is bluffing. He knows nothing, Terri.
Terri Morasco: I guess we will see at Spring Knockout!

SIX MAN TAG TEAM MATCH
Writing Challenge: Interview style RP
James Gilmore, Caleb Lockwood and Warren Kane vs Abraxes, Nighthawk and Andrew Jacobsen
------------------------------------
Alison Valance: āThis next contest is a 6-man tag scheduled for one fall with a 60-minute time limit.ā
{The lights go out and the snow steady beat of New Divide by Linkin Park plays and the crowd gives a good cheer for Warren Kane as he emerges from behind the curtains wearing a simple leather jacket, with his hands at his hips and a smile on his face. He then heads towards the ring, stopping to touch hands with members of the crowd before stopping in front of the ring. Closes his eyes, takes a breath before jumping up onto the apron, climbing the turnbuckle on the outside and raising his arms in the air getting a positive reaction from the crowd. The music dies down and the lights return to normal as he drops into the ring.}
Alison Valance: āIntroducing first, representing team #1ā¦. From London, England and weighing in at 205 poundsā¦.. Warren Kane!ā
{"Sorry to disappoint you..."
The whispered, guttural intro of "Dead Man Walking" echoes over the PA, the lights beginning to strobe, and Caleb Lockwood stalks out from the back, twirling a lead pipe in his hands as he glares out at the crowd for a moment, stalking down towards the ring. After his initial glance, he seems to completely ignore the crowd, focused solely on the ring in front of him as he advances with purpose in his eyes. Caleb slides into the ring, pushing himself up to his feet, and twirls the pipe in his hand, idly handing it to the referee before walking to a corner and grabbing the ropes, leaning forward and letting his grip arrest his momentum, bouncing back with a manic energy in his movements as the lights come up and the music fades.}
Alison Valance: āHis tag team partner, from Oakland, California and weighing in at 168 poundsā¦.. Caleb Lockwood!ā
{ An instrumental with hook version of "Shell Shocked" by Juicy J, featuring Wiz Khalifa and Ty Dolla $ign, begins to play, and a video package begins to play stock footage of waves crashing, followed by bolts of cloud-to-cloud lightning. }
"Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked..."
{ As jets of water shoot out from all directions, we see James Gilmore stepping out onto the stage, posing along to the hip-hop tune, before high-fiving the crowd and walking down to the ring. }
"(All for one when we fight together)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
(All for one when we ride together)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
(All for one when we fight together)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
(This family can bear any weather)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked..."
{ Once inside the ring, the Islander alum points heavenward, taking in the moments as he waits for his opponent. }
Alison Valance: āAnd their tag team partner, originally from Portland, Maine but now residing in Corpus Christi, Texas and weighing in at 205 poundsā¦.. James Gilmore!ā
{As the opening lines of āAre You Ready (Island Style Intro)ā by Minmi boom out over the sound system, Nighthawk walks out carefully with his face covered by an orange-and-white hood and looks at the sold-out crowd with a happy smile on his face that slowly fades as he gets himself into the zone. Walking to the ring carefully, his hands hitting the outstretched hands of the fans in the front row, the Hawaiian calmly ascends the top turnbuckle on the outside before removing his hood and raising one finger above his head and then moving to his corner where he removes his jacket and allows the referee to check him for foreign objects.}
Alison Valance: āAnd introducing Team #2. First, from Honolulu, Hawaii and weighing in at 205 poundsā¦. āThe Master of 1000 Holdsāā¦.. āThe Wrestling Geniusā Nighthawk!ā
{ The lights in the arena flicker and die as if there were some kind of power outage. As the light sounds of an acoustic guitar play, the high pitched laughter of children fills the air. A red spotlight shines on the stage as heavy smoke rolls across the floor. As opening lyrics of Monster (Under my Bed) by Call me Karizma starts to sing Abraxes rises from the center of the stage, his eyes burning out from under his mask as he stares down at the ring.
The rhythm of the song changes from a twisted lullaby do a grinding rock song just as he rises to his full height. Abraxes glares around at the audience before he turns slightly back to the ramp and ā¦
What's Up Danger begins to play as the lights in the arena dim. A black and white image of Jack appears on the Imperatron as Jack slowly steps out onto the ramp, adjusting the long black coat he is wearing over his ring gear and cracking his neck. He slowly turns his head as he looks at Abraxes who gestures to the ring. Jack slowly walking down the ramp and stepping easily through the ropes. He flexes his shoulders as he turns in a slow circle before settling into his corner, tilting his head Michael Meyers style as he stares down the referee.}
Alison Valance: āAnd his partner, from The Pit and weighing in at 285 poundsā¦.. Abraxes butā¦uhā¦ apparently being replaced with Jack Ferriman?ā
{ The opening riff of "Unbreakable" plays, sending the crowd into a frenzy, and as the drums kick in Andrew Jacobsen comes striding out onto the ramp, Danielle Chase a step behind him. He takes a few steps forward, looking to either side with a wide grin on his face. Andrew looks dead ahead at the ring, cracking his neck, and throws his arms out and head back as a burst of red and green pyro goes off to either side of him. Andrew and Danielle walk down the ramp, Andrew high-fiving fans as he goes, and he pulls himself up onto the apron, looking around at the fans with an infectious grin on his face. He climbs through the second rope and walks to a corner, checking his gloves and talking with Danielle as he waits for the match to start.}
Alison Valance: āAnd their partner, from Minneapolis, Minnesota and weighing in at 235 poundsā¦.. āThe North Starā Andrew Jacobsen!ā
Terri Morasco: āThis match has every single contender for the IWF World Television Title in it. Tonight, this 6-man tag will be a question of who can keep their side on some semblance of a game plan. Nighthawk, and Andrew Jacobsen, former tag partners. IWFās resident technical wizards. But they are teamed with a man who is anything but that in the giant Abraxes who apparently sending in Jack Ferriman? Vasco, the other side has just as many problems.ā
Vasco Dias: āJames Gilmore has been, in the past, an irritant of the first order but appears to have mended his ways ever since he joined up with Rob Diamond to form Being Infamous. Warren Kane and Caleb Lockwood were former members of the dreaded Pack faction, but they have been on different sides of the Dean Harper saga over recent months. I donāt think Iād be out of bounds to say this match is going to become a fight before too long.ā
{As soon as the bell rings Jack stands in the center of the ring, refusing to move even as Nighthawk and Andrew Jacobsen try to figure out what to do now before giving up and sliding through the ropes where they each hold tag ropes and roll their eyes in something approaching perfect synchronicity. Meanwhile, James Gilmore and Warren Kane step through the ropes and to the floor leaving Caleb Lockwood to deal with the tiny Jack. Realizing heās being played with Caleb waits for the bell to ring and then immediately leaps at Jack and goes at his eyes and mouth, trying desperately to blind the big man and thus prevent himself from being caught and mauled. But Jack shows remarkable craft for a man who is thought to be just a warmbody and catches Caleb on a leap before heaving him into his own corner, where he then proceeds to maul him with casting punches and heavy forearms until the referee is forced to step in and threaten a disqualification. Trying to sneak out of the corner Caleb thumbs Jack in the eye while the referee is distracted and quickly moves to tag in James Gilmore as Jack stays in the ring over the protestations of both Nighthawk and Andrew Jacobsen. Taking a moment to think James Gilmore tries to lock up with Jack only to be heaved halfway across the ring, wincing as he lands on his hip near Nighthawk who offers him a hand up. Seeing that though Jack shoves Nighthawk off the ring apron to the floor, before putting the boots to James. Getting up on the ring apron fuming Nighthawk is talked down off of the ledge by Andrew Jacobsen before reaching over and tagging himself in as Jack fumes and has to be forcibly guided to the outside of the ring. Springboarding in Nighthawk hits a gorgeous diving corkscrew armdrag that sends James to the floor where he follows him out with a turning spaceman moonsault press to the floor.}
{Rolling him back in the ring Nighthawk goes for a springboard crossbody only to be forced to roll through when James ducks out of the way and lands in his own corner, where Andrew Jacobsen tags in before they both land stereo superkicks on an onrushing Caleb Lockwood as the bout breaks down into a wild brawl. Nodding his head in respect the āWrestling Geniusā gets a running start and takes out both James Gilmore and Warren Kane with a tope con hilo, leaving Andrew Jacobsen in the ring with Caleb Lockwood and Jack. Ducking under another casting punch Caleb hits a Beast of War
