SHOW OPEN
------------------------------------

{ The show opener for Tuesday Night Sacrifice plays to the theme of IOU by Five Finger Death Punch showing clips of all the current champions as well as some of the biggest stars in IWF currently. As the show opening tag for Sacrifice comes to an end we are brought to the commentary booth with Vasco Dias and Terri Morasco. }

Terri Morasco: It's Tuesday Night and you know what that means, IWF Sacrifice is live! I'm Terri Morasco, seated alongside my broadcast partner, Vasco Dias and tonight looks to be action packed!

Vasco Dias: Absolutory! We've got Dawn Warren fresh off her win over Zasshu taking on April Maddrox! Atara and James Raven in mixed tag team action against Team MOD! Hijou will be facing Charlotte Shimizu!

Terri Morasco: And in our main event of the evening, Caleb Cannin will be in the ring against Angel Blake with special guest commentator, Nick Danger! Hopefully Nick watched Odyssey back because Angel did not use that chair to assist Caleb!

Vasco Dias: We all know Angel was seconds away from hitting Nick Danger regardless!

Terri Morasco: I don't know about that!

Vasco Dias: We will also hear from Nick Knight tonight, RAM and Yulia are here as well and so much more but before all that we've got our first match of the evening!

Terri Morasco: Warren Harper versus TJ Alexander and it starts right now!

TJ Alexander vs Warren Harper
------------------------------------

{ As "The Touch" By Stan Bush blares out of the PA speakers, TJ Alexander walks onto stages and raises his hands out to the side, he walks down the ramp with a cocky arrogance and chip on his shoulder, and TJ runs into the ring and climbs the nearest turnbuckle and looks into the crowd with a smile on his face. }

{ The lights change, flickering purple briefly. }

”Mirror Mirror on the wall
Show me truth or none at all
Break the glass and walk away
I’m done with everything.”

{ The lights settle on a softer more stable yellow in time with the opening drums and guitar riff of “Done With Everything” by Line So Thin. The crowd are divided for Warren Harper 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, solely focused on his own business in that ring. At the edge of the ring, he closes his eyes and takes a breath before jumping up onto the apron, walking along it and climbing the turnbuckle. He then perches himself on the corner, head bowed towards the canvas, eyes closed. He takes a series of slow deep breaths, relaxing himself in a brief meditation almost. Warren finally raises his head, no longer looking down on anything, but ahead. He slowly opens his eyes and relaxes, smiling again. The music slowly fades away and the lights return to normal as he hops down into the ring and waits in the corner. A true fighter and sportsman unlike so many in this business and in his bloodline before him. Warren was a much better man, he just had to hold onto that belief. }

Vasco Dias: This is a match I am very excited for! Warren Harper has been riding a wave of success across the barren seas of IWF since once again landing on our shores!

Terri Morasco: You’re you still doing this?

Vasco Dias: Doing what?

Terri Morasco: Nothing.

Vasco Dias: And tonight we see Warren Harper go one on one with who could turn out to be his own personal Black Manta in TJ Alexander. Aquaman 2, only in theaters December 20th.

Terri Morasco: You’re not even trying.

Vasco Dias: I am trying to emphasize how excited I am to see TJ Alexander, the metaphorical Chief Brody of IWF take on the mighty Bruce, AKA Jaws of IWF, Warren Harper!

Terri Morasco: Let’s head to the ring.

{ We’ve got Doc on referee duty for this match who calls for the bell. Warren and TJ circle each other in the opening moments of the match. Both men lean toward the technical side of the spectrum, both men are roughly the same size, both men enter this ring with the experience to know they are separated only by one mistake, one misstep at some point in this match which will cost them the victory. They lock up in the center of the ring. Both men jockey for control but neither one can get one over on the other. Warren goes for the rear waist lock but TJ immediately reverses into one of his own and transitions into a side headlock. Warren immediately reverses out of that and gets TJ in a side headlock and then spins him into a hammerlock. TJ fights his way out of that position for a drop behind and an attempted German but Warren blocks TJ from locking his wrist and reverses TJ’s grip into a rear wristlock. Warren attempts to wrench the rear wrist lock into a takedown but TJ is able to perform a single arm handstand reversal that pulls Warren into an armbar takedown! }

Vasco Dias: TJ was chumming the water and Warren came in with a big old bite of bait! Hook, line and sinker.

Terri Morasco: O…. K…. TJ gets the first move of the match after an impressive exchange ending with an armbar takedown!

Vasco Dias: TJ is looking to land the prize winning fish tonight with a victory over the undefeated in 2023 Warren Harper!

{ TJ is on his feet but Warren picks the leg of his opponent and attempts a dragon screw leg whip but TJ is able to fend it off. TJ still has his foot caught by Warren and goes for the enzugiri but Warren ducks underneath that. Warren releases the ankle and switches tactics to a spinning heel kick but TJ side steps that and attempts a Pele kick! Warren dodges that and both men come face to face in the center of the ring, forehead to forehead, nose to nose. }

Vasco Dias: It’s about to be a CORAL in here!

Terri Morasco: What?

Vasco Dias: Coral… Instead of quarrel?

Terri Morasco: Help me Lord…

{ The two men back off of each other, circling each other. Warren finally comes in with a chop and invites TJ to fire back one of his own. The two go into a chop exchange much to the delight of the fans but the match switches a gear when TJ feigns a chop and instead hits a thrust kick to the left knee of Warren that brings him to a knee! TJ then hits the ropes and comes back with a swinging neckbreaker on the kneeling Warren Harper! TJ takes full control of the match from this point with an inverted Atomic Drop that he follows up with a step up enzugiri. TJ made the first cover attempt of the match but Warren was able to kick out at two. Warren mounted a come back after the pinfall with a clothesline followed by an enzugiri of his own, he ended his string of moves with a Fisherman’s Suplex followed by a cover. TJ kicked out at two. }

Vasco Dias: Warren righted the ship after things were getting out of sand!

Terri Morasco: I feel so sorry for the people at home.

{ As we crossed the ten minute threshold we would see both men exchange control of the match. TJ mounted a come back with several big moves. TJ connected with his Game Changer Superkick that nearly ended the match. From there we would see TJ hit a Perfection 10 as well as his signature KKD! But each big move he pulled out was only met with a two count and a kick out. Warren stayed resilient, as is his nature and always fought back. Warren found some momentary reprieve when he hit the Crisis of Faith. This gave Warren the time he needed to really catch his breath and take back full control of the match. Warren connected with London Calling followed right up with the Last Breath. Warren made the cover after that combination but TJ was able to get his shoulder up at two. TJ then would fight back again and we would see both men return to the technical beginnings of this match with headlock takedowns followed by submission attempts but both men were so well educated in the technical aspect of wrestling they always found a way out of it. In a full circle moment we returned to the opening strike exchange as both men realized they were seemingly evenly matched in technical wrestling. TJ got the upper hand after several hard chops, the final strike opening a cut on Warren’s chest. TJ connected with a Crash Landing and another fall but Warren was able to get the shoulder up as this match now hit the twenty minute mark. }

Terri Morasco: What an incredible opening contest between these two extremely gifted individuals!

Vasco Dias: This match is really bringing out all my emoceans!

Terri Morasco: Why are you like this?

Vasco Dias: I’m just trying to SEAS the day like Warren!

{ Warren came back from the near fall with a folly of offensive maneuvers. It started with an arm trap headbutt that really caught TJ off guard. It continued with a jumping knee strike, a shoot kick combo, a clothesline and finally a sheer drop brainbuster into the corner of the ring. With TJ down in the corner we saw Warren deliver some mudhole stomps before pulling TJ out of the corner and dropping him in the middle of the ring with another Last Breath. Warren made a cover here but it was somehow only a two count as TJ was able to get his shoulder up! }

Vasco Dias: We are really getting into the depths here!

Terri Morasco: I’m going to ignore that pun and also agree that we are reaching a point where one big move will end this match!

{ Warren pulls TJ up from the cover but TJ throws Warren’s arms off and this time TJ connects with the Pele kick. TJ follows it up with the Game Changer that nearly drops Warren but somehow he is still standing. TJ looks to put Warren away with the Game Changer but Warren reverses his way out of it and connects with Fade to Grey! TJ is staggered and Warren hits the Reclamation! TJ Alexander is down and Warren makes the cover for the ONE! TWO! THREE!!! }

Alison Valance: Your winner by pinfall… WARREN HARPER!!!

{ Warren is exhausted as he sits in the middle of the ring with his arm raised. }

Terri Morasco: What an incredible match. Nearly thirty minutes and this is only the first match of the night!

Vasco Dias: It was like watching two great white shark-

Terri Morasco: ENOUGH!

Vasco Dias: Noted…. Honestly. This was awesome just like the crowd is screaming and I can’t wait to see these two cross paths again in the future!

{ Warren stands up as his music plays looking satisfied with the hard fought victory. }

A response
------------------------------------

{ The camera comes on to Dean Harper sitting on a porch with the sound of a tv in the background. }

Dean Harper: you know I sat on this for a hot minute. I lost, regardless of anything else I still lost the match and maybe I should just let Pax play with it a little bit. I thought about for a good long while.

{ Dean smiled }

Dean Harper: But if I’m offered a free shot why shouldn’t I take it? Round 2, electric boogaloo. How about Halloween ? I think there’s something poetic about it.

{ We head to a commercial break. }

Dawn Warren vs April Madrox
------------------------------------

{ The showdown nobody expected to be a barn burner between April Madrox and Dawn Warren surprised those in attendance by delivering an electrifying and action-packed spectacle that had fans at the edge of their seats. From the moment the opening bell rang, it was evident that both competitors were determined to claim victory.

April Madrox, known for her technical prowess and agility, faced off against the formidable and relentless Dawn Warren. The match began with a series of fast-paced exchanges, as both wrestlers showcased their grappling skills, strikes, and aerial maneuvers. Their chemistry in the ring was undeniable, and it was clear that this contest would be a memorable one.

Dawn Warren demonstrated her resilience by countering many of April's early offensive attempts. She managed to gain the upper hand at various points during the match with a combination of quick hits and submission holds, keeping the audience guessing about the eventual outcome. April Madrox, on the other hand, displayed incredible athleticism and ring awareness, allowing her to narrowly escape pin attempts and submission holds.

As the match reached its climax, April Madrox capitalized on a momentary lapse in Dawn's defense. Seizing the opportunity, she executed her signature finishing move, "Gotcha!" - a devastating running cutter. The crowd erupted in excitement as April flawlessly connected with the move, leaving Dawn Warren dazed and unable to kick out. }

"Status update on Rob Diamond."
------------------------------------

{ We rejoin Terri and Vasco at the commentary desk. }

Vasco Dias: Welcome back to Sacrifice!

Terri Morasco: Next up, live via satellite from Diamond-Kane estate we will get an update from the InFamous One himself after that violent attack last week at the hands of his brother, Chris.

Vasco Dias: I think Rob needs to see the writing on the wall and just call it a quits before he gets anymore seriously hurt.

Terri Morasco: I don’t entirely disagree with you, Vasco but killing that wrestling bug isn’t easy.

Vasco Dias: Very true, let’s head to the Diamond-Kane estate!

{ The Imperitron flickers and then takes us to a live via satellite look of the Diamond-Kane estate before transitioning to the inside of the palatial home where we find Rob Diamond seated on a chair in what appears to be the living room. }

Terri Morasco: Rob, thank you for joining us!

Rob Diamond: It’s a pleasure to be there, here, somewhere?

Terri Morasco: You’re here in spirit.

Rob Diamond: True but we all know I’m fighting to be there in person.

Vasco Dias: Sothe rumor is true, management has asked you to not be at any of the live shows for the foreseeable future?

{ Rob grimaces a little. }

Rob Diamond: Yeah, unfortunately management feels it’s in my best interest to remain somewhere “safe.”

{ Rob does the finger quotes. }

Vasco Dias: I can’t say I disagree with them. Chris has been pretty brutal and has made it pretty clear he doesn’t ever want to see you in a ring again.

Terri Morasco: Rob, I’m sure this is hard to answer but how does that make you feel?

{ There’s a hint of sadness that flashes across his face. }

Rob Diamond: It sucks, Terri but more than that it hurts. I’m sure for those in the crowd who have brothers and sisters you know what it’s like to want a certain connection with them? Chris and I? We were always pretty distant, the age gap is somewhat considerable. Shelly and I were always the closest and Chris? He kept us at arms length, even when we both decided to become professional wrestlers like him.

Terri Morasco: Woah, so this must almost feel like a betrayal?

Rob Diamond: Not really. He’s never been wholly supportive of us or me in general. What it feels like is a jealous, tired old man trying to make his name off mine. I think everyone agrees Shelly and I are the Diamonds people actually give a shit about. The last time anyone cared about Chris he was wearing a goofy mask fighting on public access television in North Dakota.

{ The crowd OOOH’s at the insult. }

Vasco Dias: I wouldn’t say that last part is true but you do bring up a good point. You and Shelly have found more success in the IWF than Chris has.

Rob Diamond: Yeah, exactly. And look how bitter that old fuck got when I returned? What did he do while Shelly and I have been away? Nothing. IWF didn’t book him, didn’t call him, hell, I wouldn’t be surprised if they stopped paying him and he’s just too far gone with alzheimers to realize he’s been let go.

{ From off screen we hear “FUCK YOU!” }

Rob Diamond: What!?

{ From off screen we see Chris Diamond run in and tackle Rob Diamond, the two crashing into and knocking over a couch! }

Terri Morasco: Oh god! Someone needs to call the authorities!

Vasco Dias: There’s no one there to stop the mayhem!

Terri Morasco: I hope Rob’s family isn’t around to witness this!

{ Chris takes a nearby flower pot and smashes it over the head of Rob. Rob is completely dazed as Chris drags the head of his brother down a fireplace mantle, destroying all the photographic memories and trinkets that were on display there. }

Terri Morasco: I’m getting word that IWF management is on the phone with local authorities and they are enroute!

Vasco Dias: This has gone too far even for me!

{ Chris takes his little brother and fires him off like a harpoon into the 74 inch television hanging on the fall completely smashing the screen, causing it to fall down on top of Rob. Chris throws the television off of his brother and drags him back to his feet. }

Chris Diamond: Do I look fucking tired to you!?

{ Chris drags Rob into the kitchen and hurls him with everything he’s got through the glass sliding door and sends shards everywhere. Rob lays on the back porch now, his clothes cut up, his face bloody. }

Terri Morasco: This is horrendous!

Vasco Dias: This is low even for Chris!

{ Rob pulls himself up by the railing of the porch as Chris charges in and connects with a big boot that sends Rob backward over the railing and down to the grassy ground! }

Terri Morasco: HOLY HELL!!!!

Vasco Dias: WHAT THE F***!!!!

{ The camera looks down over the railing where Rob is just laying on his back, sprawled out. Chris grabs the camera so it’s facing him. }

Chris Diamond: Say goodbye to Rob Diamond.

{ Chris shoves the camera away as he starts to make his way toward the steps but sirens can be heard in the distance as well as “YOU MOTHERFUCKER!” As Mama Kane comes running out of the house with a rail road spike in hand! }

Terri Morasco: Mama Kane to the rescue!

{ Chris tries to stop her but she gets past his guard and jabs him directly in the forehead with the rail road spike as you can hear the police enter the house. }

Vasco Dias: The authorities have finally arrived.

{ Mama Kane is looking to end Chris’ career as four officers come running out through the broken sliding door, two to grab Mama Kane and two to grab and cuff Chris Diamond. We look over the railing to see several more officers as well as emergency medical personnel tending to Rob Diamond on the ground. }

Vasco Dias: Jesus, I don’t really know what to say besides I hope Rob will be ok.

Terri Morasco: The possibility of him ever getting cleared looks bleaker and bleaker.

{ Chris shoots Mama Kane a smirk as he’s escorted off the porch and we head to a commercial break. }

MIXED TAG TEAM MATCH
(Mixed Tag Team Rules Apply for Sacrifice)
3000 Word Combined RP Limit Per Team
Atara & James Raven vs Team MOD
------------------------------------

Alison Valance: The following mixed tag contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first…

{ Fog begins to fill the entrance ramp and the lights fade to black. The drum and guitar opening begins to play and a crimson light begins to move through the fog serpent like and the temperature in the arena suddenly feels like it’s dropped ten degrees. Blood red strobes flash revealing that there is some kind of creature deep within the fog. }

{ Slowly the creature moves forward in an otherworldly way, sometimes moving like a man and sometimes like a serpent. There is an explosion of pyro as the guttural vocals of O Fortuna by Botch begin and for the first time the fans see the demon masked face of “The Lady Pain” Itami with the massive frame of Gregor Winter standing behind her arms overhead as if The MODifier is calling the wrath of The Demoness down upon their unfortunate opponents. }

Alison Valance: Now making their way to the ring MOD Island, “The MODifier” Gregor Winter and “The Demoness” Itami, Team MOD!!!!!!!!

{ Slowly the pair make their way to the ring acting as if the crowd doesn’t even exist. It does not matter to her if they cheer or boo, all that matters is the damage that they are about to do to their opponents. Once they reach ringside they climb onto the apron and face the hard camera as flames shoot from all four ring posts. }

Alison Valance: And their opponents…

{ A familiar riff blares from the speakers as the fans in the arena rise to their feet in excitement, waiting for the voice of Mike Shinoda… }

“NOW HERE WE GO FOR THE HUNDREDTH TIME!”

{ They explode as Linkin Parks “Bleed it Out” signals the arrival of The People’s GOAT, James Raven, and Atara Raven; making their way through the curtain to the delight of nearly every man, woman or child in attendance. }

Alison Valance: About to make their way to the ring, weighing in at a total combined weight of 362 pounds… the team of James Raven and Aphrodite Incarnate, Atara Raven!

{ James and Atara make their way to the ring, stepping through the ropes and preparing for action. }

Terri Morasco: With the arrival of James and Atara Raven, we're set for a little mixed tag team action here tonight, Vasco. Under the rules of our Sacrifice brand, the men will wrestle the men, and the women will wrestle the women.

Vasco Dias: While I carry you on commentary, as always, Morasco; and referee Paul Smackage officiates, because he somehow continues to find himself still employed here! The people know how the show works!

Terri Morasco: I was explaining the rules on this brand for the benefit of our new viewers.

Vasco Dias: Everyone already watches the show, Morasco. If we have a new viewer, it's James Raven's mother. I ask: are we really catering to this guy's mother?! He's been here five minutes.

{ Alison has made her way out of the ring. ITAMI and Atara are set to start the match for their teams. Paul Smackage calls for the opening bell. }

Ding!

{ The two women exchange strikes in the early going, each landing a few blows on the other with their Muay Thai backgrounds. ITAMI takes Atara down to the canvas with a Judo throw and lands some hard elbow strikes to the side of Atty's head. ITAMI tries to take control of Atara's arm, looking for a submission hold; but Atty staves it off, eventually using one of her long legs to touch a boot to the ropes and force ITAMI to break. ITAMI delivers a stiff knee to Atara's jaw, a cheap shot of sorts. The MOD member brings a dazed Atty up, looking for a suplex; but Atty wraps a leg for the block. Atara counters with a suplex of her own, depositing her adversary on the canvas! Atara remains on the offensive now, snatching ITAMI up for a German Suplex! Atara goes for a cover, and the referee slides into position for a count… }

One!...
T- No!!!

{ ITAMI will not stay down, kicking out just before the official's hand slaps the canvas for the two! Atara grabs ITAMI in a front facelock on the canvas. ITAMI manages to get her legs underneath her, but Atarausing her Greco Roman grappling expertise to keep the dangerous striker in her clutches. ITAMI tries to slip free a few times to no avail until she reaches up and pushes a thumb into Atara's eye. ITAMI connects with a spinning back fist to drop Atara, then tags out to Gregor Winter. Winter steps in, looming over Atara with his presence. The tag also brings James Raven in, however. James comes in with a burst of speed and connects with a dropkick to Gregor! He keeps rocking and rolling on MOD Island's big man, connecting with a flying knee that knocks Winter into the corner! James tries to shoot Gregor across the ring, but Winter puts the brakes on! Winter delivers a hard headbutt, dazing James. Gregor hoists James up, running to the middle of the ring where he delivers a big powerslam! Winter covers, and the referee slides into position for a count! }

One!
Two!!
No!!!

{ James Raven kicks out! Winter dishes out a few closed fists as James lays on the canvas, softening Raven up. The 6'6" Winter brings Raven off the canvas with him, hauling him up and showing off some incredible strength with a delayed vertical suplex! }

Vasco Dias: The People's G.O.A.T. has an oversized head for that tiny body, and every drop of blood he has is rushing into it right now!

Terri Morasco: Winter is holding Raven up there for what seems like an eternity!... And down James Raven comes with a thunderous impact!

Vasco Dias: That'll jar a spine!

{ Gregor forgoes a cover this time, instead looking to dish out more punishment. Winter leaps up and drives a big elbow into the heart of James Raven. He brings his adversary to his feet with him, whipping him into a corner! Winter charges, looking for a corner clothesline… but James brings both feet into the air to catch Winter in the face! James Raven follows up with a springboard crossbody to take Winter down! Raven continues to utilize his speed and quickness, launching a quick-strike aerial assault on Winter before finally connecting with the "Divebomb"! James readies himself to deliver an overembillished superkick he calls the "F.Y.S!" ITAMI comes in illegally and steps right in front of James to prevent it, which brings Atara in also! Atara delivers a "Judgment of Paris" to ITAMI, clearing her from the ring! Winter scoops Atara up, looking for a running powerslam, but with Atara over his shoulder, he turns right around into the "F.Y.S" from James! Atara slips off Gregor's shoulder, giving him a stiff two-handed shove to the back right into an RKO from James Raven that he calls the "Flight of the Raven!" James makes a cover! }

One!
Two!!
Three!!!

{ Referee Paul Smackage calls for the bell! }

Ding!
Ding!
Ding!

{ James Raven's music hits as he gets to his feet. ITAMI reaches in under the bottom rope, collecting Gregor. The referee raises James and Atara's arms in victory. }

"Eventually."
------------------------------------

{Nick Knight is sitting in his electric chair dressed for battle in black tactical pants, and wearing a brand new Halloween Hell t-shirt with his picture next to Alexandra Callaway’s. There is an annoyed look on his face as he absentmindedly bounces his knee up and down,}

Nick Knight: October 31, 2023 should have been the night professional wrestling was changed forever. It was supposed to be the night that I became the IWF Invictus Champion and began my quest to make that title something other than a fucking joke. Things would have been perfect, except Alexandra Callaway is too big a chickenshit to actually get inside of the ring with me.

{The camera zooms out revealing that Knight is sitting in the center of the ring with a cage structure visible behind him.}

Nick Knight: Then again on a show called Halloween Hell it probably wasn’t going to be a catch-as-can clinic. No, it was going to be a barbed wire topped exploding steel cage filled with weapons, and the only way to win is knockout or submission. It would have been an instant classic that the blood thirsty bastards in the crowd would have been talking about for years. Instead it’s going to just be a collecting dust in a warehouse and the internet wrestling community bitching about what could have been.

{‘The Hollywood Butcher’ smirks.}

Nick Knight: I guess it’s pretty easy to see why you wouldn’t want to come to Toronto. I know I’d be scared shitless to be locked inside of a cage with a sick son of a bitch like me, but you know what, I'd still do it. I'd do it because I'm not a fucking coward that runs away from their obligations.

You said you can't be there because you have a match with some other promotion, fuck them! When you signed your contract with IWF it was to show up every fucking Tuesday ready to fucking go, not pick and choose when you're available, not run away from competition like a little bitch.

{The cage begins to raise behind Knight.}

Nick Knight: IWF deserves something better than a part-time Invictus Champion. I mean, this company already has enough champions that just defend their titles whenever they feel like it. That's why this place is quickly turning into a steaming pile of shit.

I am going to be the man that changes everything, and I don't fucking care if it's at Halloween Hell, Survival of the Fittest, or a house show in Bangor, Maine. You're going to have to stop running eventually, and when you do I am going to take your fucking belt. Then I'm going to be the man that saves professional wrestling.

~Day 25~

Caroline Machado: Hi!!!

{ We find Caroline Machado outside the main building of the Revolution Texas Academy on a damp Tuesday morning. Clad in her Texas Rangers American League Championship gear, she walks up to the parking area, where several large moving trucks have gathered. Eventually, we find RAM and Yulia helping Johnny Gilmore -- JJ's older brother -- loading up some valuable items into a U-Haul trailer. }

Caroline Machado: Donnie DeMuro has called in sick this morning, so I'm taking his place today! It's a big day here at the Academy, as the main campus here will close for a few months to undergo the third and final phase of a massive renovation and restoration project. Right now, RAM is busy moving some of Fiona's paintings into--

{ RAM snaps as he places a Rembrandt into the trailer. }

RAM: Donnie DeMuro is a pussy! His stupid Astros got their asses whupped last night -- THAT'S why he's callin' in sick!

Yulia Malakova: (singing off-key) Snowflake! Snowflake!!

{ Johnny couldn't help but chuckle to himself. }

Johnny Gilmore: Don't mind them, dear. I know you want to make this a family-friendly segment...

{ Caroline giggled. }

RAM: Family-friendly, huh?! Since when is IWF ever that way...?!

Yulia Malakova: He's got a point there, Johnny. Rowan and Eternity aren't exactly the G-rated types...

{ The Brazilian cleared her throat. }

Caroline Machado: La-la-laaaa...back to work!! I've got to go help JJ babysit Luke and Leia!!

RAM: Wait...OH, C'MON!!! YOU PROMISED ME A LUNCH DATE!!!

{ Johnny laughed out loud. Yulia grinned from ear to ear as the older Gilmore turned towards her. }

~AN HOUR LATER~

{ We now find ourselves inside a dark, dank room underneath the Academy's main campus building, where Johnny, RAM, and Yulia are milling about. Wearing headlamps and carrying flashlights, the three study the area around them as they walked, a haunting ambience descending upon them. }

RAM: This place gives me the creeps...

Yulia Malakova: My father owned this building and the land that surrounded it.

RAM: Well, what IS this joint exactly?!

{ Johnny nodded his head. }

Johnny Gilmore: This used to be the old boiler room. I've heard that it's haunted, cursed with a shit load of evil spirits. Spectres of former inmates that used to populat this place before Yulia's dad bought it.

{ RAM raised his brows. }

RAM: Hard to think that this used to be a prison...

Johnny Gilmore: I get you there, bud. All that cold steel on the inside reminds you of that.

{ Johnny paused, taking a sip from his bottle of A&W root beer. }

Johnny Gilmore: Anyways, this is the weakest part of the building according to my research. If I can pack up enough TNT and C4 charges in here, this place will go up from within.

RAM: Like a controlled implosion?!

Johnny Gilmore: Yup. The main batch of charges will be planted down here. I'll have a few more batches placed on each floor on every corner. When I press the button, the secondary charges will go off, and then the main batch -- BOOM!!!

{ Yulia's eyes lit up. }

Yulia Malakova: Are you crazy?! Otto has this place more bugged with security cameras than Mar-A-Lago!

Johnny Gilmore: Security system shuts down after 8:00 PM for nightly updates. We'll go in after that, plant the charges under the cover of night. In the meantime--

RAM: In the meantime?!

{ Johnny turned towards RAM. }

Johnny Gilmore: You wanna make an impact, RAM? You wanna prove that my little brother's days are done?! Challenge him to a fight - make him put his career on the line. If he accepts, it'll be all hunky-dory, but if he doesn't?!

{ Johnny pulls out a small remote with a little red button in the middle. }

Yulia Malakova: This place will go BANG!!! Brilliant!!!

Caleb Cannin vs Angel Blake
w/ Nick Danger on Commentary
------------------------------------

Vasco Dias: Here is our main event Terri, the Future will slay the God of professional wrestling tonight. Wait and see Terri.

Terri Morasco: We will see about that tonight but our guest at this time is Nick Danger. Welcome and who do you think will win tonight?

Nick Danger: Thank you and I got to say, Angel Blake. But I want to watch the match to see what Angel Blake can do in person.

{ The opening riff of “Epic” greets the audience as Caleb Cannin walks onto the entrance stage. He smiles devilishly as he makes a confident stride down the ramp. He reaches the steel steps, glaring at any fans in the front. Making a careful ascent up the steps, he wipes his feet on the apron before setting foot in the ring. He ditches the jacket and towel, tossing them at a poor ring attendant. }

Terri Morasco: What did you think of Caleb's victory over you last week Nick?

Nick Danger: Caleb has proven my theory that he will always cheat to win.

Vasco Dias: Caleb didn't cheat he was fighting smart.

{ All the lights in the arena go out as words blaze across the Imperitron. }

“Blessed are the wicked who are healed by my hands.”

{ The entire arena absolutely explodes with cheers as the opening notes of the orchestra version of Gateways begins to play as flames erupt across the stage like napalm. Slowly Angel Blake begins to rise from within the flames with his arms outstretched wearing a long black coat with the birthdate of his baby girl embroidered on the back and the IWF World Tag Team Championship around his waist. Angel throws his arms up in the air as the metal version of Gateways takes over and really kicks into gear. Flames erupt all the way down the stage and ignite the ring posts as well and the lyrics finally kick in. }

Vasco Dias: Nick in my honest opinion I think you should step out with your match against Angel Blake at Halloween Hell.

Terri Morasco: Vasco that's just plain rude and mean!

Nick Danger: No it is okay Terri I wanted this match for a long time. So I won't be stepping down. I will face him head-on at Halloween Hell.

Vasco Dias: Your funeral.

The core principle of freedom
Is the only notion to obey
The formula of evolution and sin
Leading the way

{ Angel steps out of the flames looking over to the crowd with a terrible grin before looking toward the ring. He scowls as he begins to walk, flames erupting behind him with every step. Angel finally reaches 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 turns his back to the corner and throws his coat off as the music dies down. }

Terri Morasco: This will be Angel and Caleb's second time facing each other. Plus Nick you get to see Angel in action.

Nick Danger: That is true, study your opponent and find their weakness.

Vasco Dias: Study Angel all you want Nick but to tell the truth Angel is unstoppable.

{ Blue Shoes is on officiating duties for this one and calls for the bell. Angel and Caleb both move into a feeling out process to kick things off. Angel throws a few kicks in Caleb’s direction but Caleb avoids or stuffs them. Eventually the two go into a tie up where it’s Caleb who manages to gain control with a side headlock. Angel fights out of it by hoisting the slightly smaller Caleb up into a dumping German suplex! }

Terri Morasco: Wow Angel showing his strength with a German suplex on Caleb.

Vasco Dias: Are you going to be able to counter that move when you fight Angel?

Nick Danger: To be truthful yes but I will have a plan for attack and defense in that match.

{ Caleb went to the outside from there looking to create some distance between him and Angel and also to draw Angel to the outside. Angel watches as Caleb walks around the ring one time as Angel watches but the former World Champion isn’t taking the bait. Finally Caleb climbs up onto the ring apron where Angel makes a move but Caleb drops back down and scoops out the legs of Angel and rips him sliding out of the ring onto the floor. Caleb goes right into a mount and starts laying in some right hands while Blue Shoes makes a count. }

Vasco Dias: The Future just outsmarted Angel Blake. We may see a major upset here tonight.

Nick Danger: It’s too early to say that Vasco.

Terri Morasco: That is true Nick.

{ Caleb enters and exits the ring to re start the count. Angel has found his way up but Caleb shoves him shoulder first into the ring post. Angel tries to roll back into the ring but Caleb is right there to whip Angel left shoulder first into the crowd barrier. Blue Shoes is demanding they get back into the ring as Caleb smiles. Caleb brings Angel back toward the ring and picks him up and drops him left shoulder first onto the ring apron before he rolls one half of the tag team champions back into the ring for a pinfall attempt. It’s only a two count but Caleb smells blood in the water. }

Nick Danger: I don’t like Caleb but he is very smart and knows how to weaken his opponent.

Vasco Dias: He is the future after all. Just watch him be great.

Terri Morasco: Let’s see if he can keep it up Vasco.

{ Caleb sees his opening now as he brings Angel into position for a shoulder breaker and delivers it with devastating precision. Caleb goes for another cover attempt but it’s once again only a two count. Caleb brings Blake back to his feet where Angel fires off a nasty chop to the chest of Cannin. Angel quickly lays in a heavy barrage of kicks to the both the right and left legs of Caleb Cannin, looking to chop the man down. Eventually Caleb drops to a single knee and Blake drills him in the jaw with Divine Justice! Blake goes for the cover at this point but Caleb is more than capable of kicking out. }

Terri Morasco: Angel is firing back with the Divine Justice knee strike.

Nick Danger: I think Caleb got ahead of himself with those shoulder breakers, he should’ve went to the knees.

Vasco Dias: Big talk Nick but you won’t be able to handle him in a match.

{ Both men find their way to their feet and begin a chop exchange but Caleb quickly finds himself on the losing end of it as Angel is proficient in strikes and chops. Angel works Caleb into a corner of the ring and lights him up with chops to WOO’s from the crowd. Blake takes Caleb out of the corner with a Heaven’s Fury Bulldog followed up by a cover attempt but Caleb is able to kick out of it. Blake brings Caleb to his feet and then drills him head first into the mat with Tara’s Wings DDT! Angel sees a moment to put Caleb down for the count as he gets back to his feet. Caleb is on his hands and knees when Angel delivers a Daddy’s Dental Work curb stomp that he immediately follows up with a pin attempt but Caleb has cleverly positioned himself too close to the ropes and gets a hand on the bottom rope to break up the pin. }

Terri Morasco: Angel is going to work on Caleb Cannin.

Vasco Dias: Again Nick you won't be able to handle him in a match for an hour.

Nick Danger: Vasco you’ve always doubted me and I always end up shocking with a surprise win.

{ Blake has Caleb on his feet and hits the ropes looking for another Divine Justice knee strike but Caleb side steps it and quickly scoops up Angel for another shoulder breaker! Caleb quickly brings Angel up to his feet and delivers a Liger Bomb before taking Angel hard into the corner of the ring, left shoulder first! With Angel in a prone position in the corner of the ring, Caleb delivers the Cannin Ball! Caleb drags Angel out of the corner and goes for a cover but Angel is able to kick out at two! }

Vasco Dias: Caleb must have put the missing pieces together to fight Angel Blake.

Terri Morasco: But will he keep the advantage for long against Angel Blake?

Nick Danger: I saw pretty much all of Angel Blake’s matches so my guess is as good as yours so far Terri. But Angel Blake will pull off the victory.

{ Caleb isn’t about to let this opportunity slip away as he brings Angel to his feet once more and takes him down with the Hindsight backstabber! Caleb is then right up to his feet where he delivers a double stomp to that injured left shoulder of Angel! Caleb sees his chance to put Blake away for good and locks him into the Clairvoyance, grounded top wrist lock! Caleb is wrenching with everything he has trying to get the Hall of Fame wrestler to tap out or give up but Angel is resolute as he forces his way toward the ropes. Blue Shoes keeps checking to see if Angel wants to give up but he is refusing to do so as Caleb is attempting to shatter the wrist of his opponent. Angel finally gets close enough to touch the bottom rope and break the hold but Caleb is ever the opportunist and holds on for the full four count before finally letting go. }

Vasco Dias: Caleb is using every advantage possible to get the win tonight.

Nick Danger: He did this before and ended up failing.

Terri Morasco: I hope Angel Blake's arm is okay.

Vasco Dias: Is he looking at you Nick?

{ Caleb looks up to the commentary area where he has some words for Nick Danger who stands up. Caleb then decides to try the same trick he tried last week when he exits the ring to get a steel chair. Blue Shoes is all over the competitor as he brings the weapon into the ring. Nick Danger has left the commentary booth. }

Vasco Dias: WHAT THE HELL IS DANGER DOING?

Terri Morasco: He is making sure the same thing doesn’t happen again like last week.

{ Nick reaches the ring apron while Blue Shoes is struggling to rip the chair from Caleb’s grasp. Angel is nearly back to his feet now as Danger yells at Caleb to lose the chair. Caleb finally releases the chair by pushing it into the chest of the referee which causes him to turn his back long enough for Caleb to turn and hit Angel with a Cup Check low blow! Nick is irate on the apron as Blue Shoes turns his attention to Danger! }

Vasco Dias: Seize your opportunity and make your history.

Terri Morasco: Don't tell me, Caleb will win after low blowing Angel Blake.

{ Caleb now has Angel dead to rights as he spins him into the Cannin Ending! Caleb drops Angel dead in the middle of the ring but Nick Danger is still arguing with the official about the low blow. Caleb has Angel pinned for five plus seconds before getting up and spinning Blue Shoes around, demanding that he pay attention! Caleb goes back to the cover now but too much time has passed and Angel is able to kick out at two! }

Terri Morasco: Nick's plan worked like a charm. Payback is something right Vasco.

Vasco Dias: Shut up Terri.

{ Danger backs off the apron now, satisfied that he stopped Caleb from stealing the victory. Caleb is irate with Blue Shoes but the official just holds up two fingers. Caleb spins back to continue working over Angel but Blake is back to his feet and drills Caleb with a Diving Justice knee strike! Angel then backs off and connects with the Genecide Kick! Caleb goes down and Angel makes a cover but it’s a 2.99998 as Caleb gets his shoulder up at the last second! Nick rejoins Terri and Vasco. }

Nick Danger: End this match already Angel.

Terri Morasco: Deadlights will seal the deal.

Vasco Dias: Caleb will get the win tonight just you watch.

{ Angel pulls Caleb up to his feet. Angel looks to hook Caleb up for the Deadlights but Caleb breaks free and jabs a thumb in the eye of Blake. Caleb stomps the foot of Blake. Caleb jumps up looking for another Hindsight but Angel moves out of the way and Caleb lands hard on his back. Blake strikes as Caleb tries to stand with another Genecide Kick! Angel pulls Caleb in and up into the air for the Deadlights in the center of the ring. Angel makes the cover for the ONE! TWO! THREE! }

Alison Valance: Your winner by pinfall… ANGEL BLAKE!

Nick Danger: Caleb got what he deserved after last week.

Terri Morasco: I agree.

Vasco Dias: I couldn’t disagree more. If you hadn’t gotten involved, Nick, Caleb would have won this match.

Terri Morasco: Yeah, by cheating!

Vasco Dias: A wins a win.

Nick Danger: Not like that.

{ Angel stands up as his music plays. Nick stands up and takes the headphones off. Angel points to Caleb who is recovering in the corner of the ring and then to Nick Danger. Nick points to the Survival of the Fittest banner and makes the belt motion around his waist. }

Vasco Dias: I think that says it all, Terri. At Halloween Hell we are going to see the God of Professional Wrestling go head to head with the Rising Ace and only one man can go on to face Wraith for the World Television Championship in the Extinction Event!

Terri Morasco: Halloween Hell is shaping up to be a huge night for the IWF and with this on the cards? It may just be the show of the year. Nick Danger, Angel Blake, Iron Man match!

{ The show closes on a split screen of Nick Danger looking down at Angel Blake and Angel Blake glaring up at Nick Danger. }

Sabin / Madjinn: I hereby request a notion that the TV championship records be retired, and thus, the Gladiators Championship starts anew! That way J-TV will never break my record! Jun 10, 2024 17:11:47 GMT

J-TV: It's gonna be a cold day in hell before you take this TV Title away from me. I bet I look damned good with two belts though. Jun 10, 2024 10:02:08 GMT
