SEGMENT "The promise.ā
---------------------------------------------------------- { Sacrifice came to life, not with the usual pyro but with darkness and flames as āSailā by Devildriver sent the crowd into a chorus of boos. A lone spot light shown on the stage where Angel stood with his arms out stretched. }Vasco Dias: Welcome to another edition of Monday night Sacrifice and it looks like weāre kicking things off with our first ever Roulette winner, number one contender to the Imperial Championship, Savior X himself, ANGEL! Terri Morasco: Angel fought a hard battle last Sunday night and he just barely came out on top. Vasco Dias: He earned the win that is for sure, though there seems to be a long line of people who arenāt terribly happy about it. { Angel stepped forward as the pyro shot off behind him to form a flaming X on the stage. He sneered as the crowd chanted āNO! NO! NO!ā The smile never wavering as he made it to the ring and walked up the steps. }Vasco Dias: That list included an NCW alumni and former World Champion in Falcon, a man we thought would never be cleared to wrestle has made his intentions clear, he wants to take down a God. Terri Morasco: Yes he does and Iām sure Angel has got something to say about that. { Angel stands in the ring, a mic in hand as his music dies down, the sinister smirk apparent. }Angel: PRAISE BE TO SAVIOR X!!! { The crowd doesnāt like that and lets him know it but Angel doesnāt care, he doesnāt listen, he takes their reaction as the praise he is looking for. }Angel: And welcome to the new age, the Age of X! I am your number one contender now and it is only a matter of time before I hold the Imperial Championship in my hands and restore a sense of glory it. The belt does not make the man, the GOD makes the belt and I am the only God any of you need to worry about. Vasco Dias: A shot at Spike? Terri Morasco: Could beā¦ Angel: In two months I will share a ring with Malaki Toala and only one of us will be allowed to walk away, I promise you, my children, it will be me. As strong and defiant as he is, he is no match and it will be my honor to lay him to waste, my legacy will stand over his bloody body! Vasco Dias: Does he ever think about anything else? Terri Morasco: Doubtful. Angel: However tonight, tonight I do not share a ring with Malaki Toala, tonight I share a ring with an old friend. A friend who thinks I have forgotten what we both stood forā¦ FALCON!!!! { The crowd pops huge as the cameras pan to show all the loyal Falcon supporters in attendance. }Angel: I made a promise once to bring an end to the corruption in professional wrestling, together with Falcon as well as some others we fought for what we believed in. We waged wars in multiple promotions and in the end do you know what that got us Falcon? NOTHING! It got us nothing because in the end it was still Adam and Kelly Knite who stood victorious, it was the Corporate Connects, it was any number of power hungry soulless whores who won! We had our moral victories, proving for a time that we belonged but in the end you were left crippled and I was shunned. { He almost sounds remorseful. }Angel: I havenāt forgotten, Iām still fighting, Falcon, fighting for what I always believed in, ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE! I defeated Roberto Verona, I won the Roulette, I have single handedly taken IWF as my own and finallyā¦. FINALLY these people have someone worth worshipping. I do not spew lies and false promises like others have, I speak only the truth. My family and I will crush anyone not strong enough to stand on their own and if that means you too, Falconā¦ Then so be it. { Angel drops the mic as the crowd just boos. }----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT "Southwest Tour spot"
---------------------------------------------------------- {We head backstage where we find Mercedes Vargas standing in front of an IWF backdrop. She's in her ring gear and proudly sports her IWF Ruby Championship over her shoulder for this sixty second spot.}Mercedes Vargas: Hi, this is IWF Ruby Champion Mercedes Vargas reminding you to mark your calenders as the IWF Southwest Tour rolls on.

TAG TEAM MATCH Bloody Business vs Xavier Cross and Gjenrei
---------------------------------------------------------- {Cross and Gjenrei are in the ring talking with the crowd cheering for Cross.}Terri Morasco: Xavier Cross is a two time Heavyweight champion and Gjenrei is a former Cruiserweight champion they could be a dream team. Vasco Dias: Possibly.... {"This is your life" by Dust Brothers begins as Seph and Kristoff walk out, Seph with his cane and Kristoff with his briefcase. The two adjusting their lapels and cuffs as they simply look to each other and nod. They then walk beside each other strolling and staring at the ring. Both men have a smug smile on their face as they make their way down the ramp and up the stairs. As they stand on the ring apron they both wipe their feet neatly before stepping inside and once inside they look at each other and with a smile shake each others hands as friends and partners.}Vasco Dias: And these two are crazy...one is the current Invictus champion one is a former Man of steel... Terri Morasco: But which team will win? {The bell rings and Xavier Cross and KLB start the match. They go to lock up, KLB ducks down and trips Xavier up before floating over into a side headlock. Cross stands up and picks KLB up before dropping him down in a belly to back suplex, Cross spins to his feet as KLB gets up holding his back, Cross runs forward and leaves his feet hitting a flying clothesline! Cross again gets to his feet and pulls up KLB before hitting a scoop slam and running to the ropes and dropping down with an elbow before tagging in Gjenrei, Gjenrei slingshots over the top rope with a tope onto KLB.}Terri Morasco: Cross the Gjenrei starting off strong here... Vasco Dias: They are also working well as a team. {Gjenrei lays in a few hard kicks as KLB stays on his knee's in front of him, as Gjenrei goes for a knockout shot, KLB ducks and picks up Gjenrei with a AA spinebuster slamming Gjenrei down. KLB gets to his feet and waits for Gjenrei, he hits a hip toss and then tags in Sephiroth. Seph and KLB hit a double suplex on Gjenrei and then Seph takes over, he stomps Gjenrei down and pulls him back up throwing the mask man in the corner before hitting a hard right hand.}Terri Morasco: Hard shots from KLB and Seph now that they have taken over... Vasco Dias: But Cross and Gjenrei can come back. {Seph hits a DDT and pins 1...2...Gjenrei kicks out. Seph tells Gjenrei to get to his feet, he runs and goes for a clothesline, Gjenrei ducks and then leaps back hitting a pele kick taking Seph down, Gjenrei rolls to the corner and tags in Xavier Cross who explodes into the ring, KLB comes in realizing Cross has a heart of fire.}Terri Morasco: Here comes Cross... {Cross takes down KLB and hits a few rights, he then rolls over and spears Seph, KLB rolls from the ring and Gjenrei gets in and sprints to the other side launching himself over the top rope onto KLB, meanwhile Cross hits the crossifixtion and goes for the pin 1....2....3}----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT "Isolated"
---------------------------------------------------------- {Backstage at the arena, Renee Pleasant walks into the Ragnarok dressing room. His demeanour is one of obvious anger and irritation and his head snaps back and forth as he scans the room. He is looking so frantically, that on first glance, he misses the presence of Amber Richards.
Renee stalks into the middle of the ring, this time he notices her, but disregards her presence as he stalks around the room, his anger growing and quickly out-doing his control on his temper. Amber slides out of the chair she was sitting in and walks over to Renee, a slight limp on her step as pain flashes across her face.}Amber Richards: They arenāt here... So if you are quite finished with the over-protective bit... I was enjoying the quiet... {Renee rounds on Amber, as he steps closer to her, he begins to tower over her and she shrinks back slightly fighting to hide the flash of fear in her eyes. Renee touches her hair slightly, rolling a few strands between his fingers. He stares her up and down a couple of times, taking quick stock of her current condition. He laughs.}Amber Richards: Something funny? Renee Pleasant: Well, I just assumed youād be better at takinā a punch... {Amberās face flashes with disgust and she rears back as though she is going to verbally unload on Renee, but Renee laughs again. He wraps the strands of hair that were between his fingers around his hand and steps closer to her still, causing him to pull on her hair just a little and Amber tries to pull back without making her need to escape him obvious.}Renee Pleasant: Oh come on now... Donāt you be playinā all offended with me Amber... I know where you live, love... {He steps forward again, closing every inch of distance between them. His body all but touches her as he raises his hand and smells her hair, before releasing it. Amber throws a hand up and begins stroking her hair back into place. Renee bends down, getting his face close to hers, so he can whisper his next words.}Renee Pleasant: In the darkness... {Renee licks his lips slowly and the physical repulsion that crosses Amber is obvious, but it is mixed with that same dangerous curiosity as last time and her cheeks flush a hot pink. She breathes a little heavier, as Renee continues...}Renee Pleasant: I could teach you... How to take a hit... I bet you are real pretty... All bruised and begginā {Unable to control herself, Amber rears back and slaps Renee across the cheek. He straightens and places a hand to his cheek, laughing for a moment. Fear floods Amberās eyes as she looks about the room, remembering they are all alone.
Renee grabs Amber by the chin and moves his face to hers once more. He just studies the lines of her face for a moment and fear freezes her in place, after what seems like an eternity he releases her and pushes her back slightly.
Before Amber can do anything but stumble a few steps back and then brush herself down, Renee has turned on his heels and left the room. She stands, looking around the empty room and pulls her arms about her, shivering slightly in the depth of her isolation.}----------------------------------------------------
MAN OF STEEL MATCH Bob Pooler vs The Ace
---------------------------------------------------------- {The lights in the arena start to flash red, green, yellow and purple in rotation with the opening guitar and drums. As the lyrics to 'You Know My Name' by Chris Cornell kick in, the circular platform that The Ace is stood upon with his back towards us, the platform is decorated to look like a roulette wheel. Slowly it spins a full one-eighty degrees and as the chorus is reached and we see The Ace facing us, and cards begin to fall from the rafters. The Ace waits a moment before stepping off the platform and grasping the hand of Kathleen Conway, who is carrying her husband's steel rake in one hand and the couple proudly walk through the shower of falling cards, hand in hand. At the foot of the ramp, the cards stop falling as the couple share a kiss. The Ace then confidently struts over to the steel steps as Kathy remains at ringside, armed. The Ace climbs the steel steps towards the ropes and steps through them. He walks over to the adjacent turnbuckle, unhooking his title belt and climbing the second rope. He raises both arms in the air. The Ace then climbs down and he walks to the middle of the ring, the lights return to normal...}Vasco Dias: You know, Iāve always wondered how much that entrance of his costs this company. Terri Morasco: What? You mean with the raining cards and giant custom made roulette wheel? Vasco Dias: Yeah. Terri Morasco: I think we have a deal with Costco ā¦ {The sound of a toy being wound just before āBlah blah blablahā hits the PA. Seconds later, the drum beat hits and āGet Jinxedā blasts forth throughout the arena. Pooler walks out onto the stage sporting a smirk and soaks in the mixed reaction before making his way down towards the ring.}Alison Valance: Making his way to the ring; from Manchester, New Hampshire; weighing in at two hundred and twenty-eight pounds ā¦ Bob ā¦ POOOOOLER! {Pooler slides into the ring and makes his way back to his feet. He walks to the nearest corner and climbs to the second turnbuckle and plays to the crowd. He drops back down to the ring and grabs hold of the ropes, tugging down on them and taking a moment to stretch before the match can begin.} {The Ace locks eyes with the man who, in the opinion of many, has been living in the shadows of Spike Kane. As expected, Pooler returns the steely glare; the expression on his face is one of complete focus and self-assurance. Slowly, the Ace begins to lift his arms, ready to lock up with the former Cruiserweight champion, but Pooler lurches forward, weaving beneath the outstretched arms of his opponent and slapping the Ace in the back of the head. He turns to face Pooler, who drills him in the side of the head with a stiff looking forearm shot. It doesnāt take long to see the fire ignite in the Aceās eyes as he lets out a grunt of rage and charges straight at Pooler. Instead of meeting the Ace head-on, Pooler moves backwards and intertwines himself between the middle and top rope, shouting at the referee and pointing at the Ace. The Ace fumes, and clutches his fists in frustration as the official steps between them. As the fans boo, Pooler laughs and shoos the Ace away with his hands.}Vasco Dias: Would you look at that, no respect from Bob Pooler. Terri Morasco: Heās playing mind games in there, Vasco. The Ace, even with all his experience, knows he has to play by a set of rules. Vasco Dias: You call it strategy, I call it a total lack of class! {The Ace backs away from Pooler, giving him the time to untangle himself from the ropes. The pair meet in the center of the ring for a lock up that is quickly shown to be in the Aceās favor. The larger man begins pushing Pooler around the ring, backing him into the far corner until his back is flush with the turnbuckles. The referee moves in to separate the two but the Ace gets off a quick, yet very stiff, shot to the jaw of Pooler that rocks him off his feet. The referee admonishes the Ace for the closed fist, who apologizes quickly before driving a boot into the belly of the waiting Pooler. Ace grabs Pooler by the hair and whips him up and backwards, slamming the back of his head into the top turnbuckle and dropping the former champion to the mat. The Ace follows up with a boot placed firmly in the throat. The Ace presses the boot down harder and harder, Poolerās arms flailing around. The referee stands beside the Ace beginning his count of five. At four, The Ace lets go, and Pooler rolls under the bottom rope to safety. The Ace reaches down and yanks him from his protective space and pulls him back to his feet. Pooler replies with yet another slap that knocks the taste out the Aceās mouth. Reaching up to feel his cheek for a moment, The Ace charges in, but Pooler ducks him, quickly trapping The Ace in the corner before letting loose with a series of stiff lefts and rights. Pooler backpedals slightly to appease an agitated referee, but he immediately returns to his onslaught, unleashing a barrage of boots until The Ace is left slumped into a seated position. Pooler doesnāt stop there; much like the Ace, Pooler presses his boot into the throat of the Ace, immediately restricting his air intake. The referee counts to five, almost calling for the disqualification before Pooler relinquishes the blatant choke.
Grappling The Ace around the head, Pooler lifts his opponent to a vertical base and immediately slaps on a headlock. Despite the lack of air reaching his body, the Ace pushes toward the ropes, causing Pooler to bounce off, and launch across the squared circle. Upon his return, The Ace greets him with a picture-perfect Dropkick - his boots kiss Poolerās face and drop him to the mat. Pooler gets up quickly, but is soon sent right back down with another dropkick. He attempts to reach his feet for a third time, but the damage sustained from the double dose of dropkicks has left him somewhat dizzy and disoriented. As he gathers himself and claws his way to a vertical base The Ace dashes toward the nearest ropes. He bounces off and uses the momentum to launch himself into the air, in the general vicinity of his adversary. With his legs outstretched before him, The Ace catches Pooler by the back of the head and neck, driving him face first into the canvas with the FameAcer.}Vasco Dias: Holy ā¦ The Ace with the FameAcer out of nowhere Terri! Terri Morasco: That may very well keep Pooler down for the ten count, Vasco. {The referee begins the standing ten count,
Oneā¦ Twoā¦ Threeā¦ Fourā¦ Fiveā¦
Pooler begins stirring and manages to get back to a vertical base by the count of eight.} Terri Morasco: Pooler managing to stave off defeat after what would have put him down for an easy pin! Vasco Dias: As much as Iād like to see him pinned in that ring again, itāll take a bit more from the Ace to put him away for a ten count. {The Ace, looking to continue the offense, rushes forward with a clothesline that sends the still dazed Pooler stumbling backwards and over the ropes and to the outside. From the outside, Pooler begins to stir. He pulls himself up using the ring apron and gingerly climbs back up. The Ace, having retreated to the far side of the ring dashes forward, soaring just above the middle rope and spearing Pooler from the ring apron and down to the floor. Both superstars lie on the floor afterward; the deliverer of the spear looking as depleted as the receiver.} Terri Morasco: WHAT A MOVE! Talk about pulling out all the stops, Vasco! Vasco Dias: I donāt believe it! Terri Morasco: Listen, this crowd is really getting behind the Ace. Pooler is going to need to really dig deep if he wants to walk away from this match at all, let alone victorious! {Pooler staggers to his feet, blowing his hair out of his face as he stumbles backwards into the guardrail. The Ace, having managed to get to his feet as well ā though looking like he tweaked his knee limps towards Pooler, who turns right into a wicked European uppercut that staggers him backwards into the guardrail. The Ace leans Pooler backwards over the guardrail, opens his arms wide and lays into him with a vicious chop that leaves a red welt almost instantly. The fans seem to go silent as the Ace hauls back again, striking Pooler across the chest with another nasty knife edge chop. This time, Pooler doubles over, arms clutched to his chest, and drops to his knees. The Ace turns and grabs a handful of Poolerās hair, essentially dragging him back towards the ring.}Vasco Dias: This isnāt looking good. Terri Morasco: Hey, this crowd sounds like they want to see Pooler humbled, and it looks like the Ace is in the driverās seat! {The Ace rolls Pooler into the ring, sliding in just behind him and gingerly getting to his feet. The referee immediately begins issuing the ten count.
Oneā¦
Pooler stirs on the ground, cringing in pain as his chest continues to redden.
Twoā¦ Threeā¦ Fourā¦
Adrenaline begins to rush through the former Cruiserweight champion as he forces himself up to one knee. Still, he isnāt able to make it to his feet, as he gingerly clutches his chest and midsection that are still feeling the effects of the spear to the outside. Five... Sixā¦
Pooler crawls to the ropes, wrapping his hand around the top rope
Sevenā¦ Eightā¦
Pooler is nearly to his feet when The Ace, realizing that Pooler was going to make it back to his feet, moves in for the kill. The Ace drills him with a heavy body shot and, locking in a front facelock, blasts him in the face several times with brutal knee strikes. Sensing victory, The Ace doubles Pooler over with a toe kick, then grabs hold and goes for the Reversal of Fortune! Pooler, with two hands placed firmly against the Ace, manages to shove him off as he stumbles several steps across the ring. The Ace turns back around and ā¦}Terri Morasco: DOCTOR TEETH! Vasco Dias: Did you see the Aceās head snap back, Terri? Terri Morasco: There could be serious damage after that shot! {Pooler doesnāt let the referee even begin his ten count. He steps over the Aceās prone body, drops to his knees and begins pounding away until the referee intervenes, and threatens to disqualify him. Pooler rolls off, the Ace rolling in the other direction and shakily getting back to his feet. Pooler closes the gap between them and raises his fists; the Ace, raises his to block, but Pooler feigns the punch for a superior football style kick right to the side of the Aceās already ailing knee. One good kick was all it took to bring the Ace down and wide open for Pooler to connect with a leaping enzuguiri. The Ace slides towards the ropes, part of his upper body landing beneath and protecting him from Pooler who has rolled back to his feet and is already heading back for more.}Vasco Dias: Hey! The Ace is nearly hanging out of the ring, what the hell is Pooler doing? {The Ace, true to form, is pulling himself up via the ropes as Pooler slides out of the ring and strikes him in the face before hopping up on the ring apron and grabbing hold of the Aceās arm, tucking it between his legs and cinching in under his chin.}Vasco Dias: Trente et Quarante! Pooler has the Aceās own submission move locked on him. Terri Morasco: Fat lot of good itāll do him, Vasco ā thatās illegal and needs to be released! {The referee, agreeing with the commentating team, slides out of the ring and starts tugging on Poolerās arms, breaking the hold and freeing the Ace. Pooler slides off the ring apron and gets into the face of the referee, giving it right back to him. The pair continue to argue as the Ace struggles back to his feet and leans against the ring ropes. Pooler, having had enough of the referee, turns and begins sliding back into the ring only to feet the underside of the Aceās boot in the back of his neck. The Ace continues to stop away at Pooler, whoās unable to fully enter the ring, all the while the referee takes his sweet time climbing the steel steps and getting back into the ring himself. He finally asks the Ace, politely, to allow Pooler in and the Ace, smiling, reaches down to assist. With two hands firmly around the back of Poolerās neck, the Ace drags him back to a vertical base and goes for an Irish whip. Pooler reverses, whipping the Ace hard into the far ropes and then bending over and awaiting the back body drop. The Ace, scouting the move, comes back with a full head of steam that he uses to grab hold of Pooler and go for a spinning Ace-plant. Pooler, using the little strength he has left, manages to hold the Ace in the air, not allowing him to land and execute the high impact DDT. Whether out of dumb luck, or just his body giving out, Pooler leans backwards and manages to send the Ace sailing over his head where he lands with a loud smack. Both men are down on the canvas, but the Ace looks to be the one who will make it back to a standing position first. Pooler follows close behind, but the Ace manages to regain the upper hand with a hard left jab that rocks Pooler backwards. The Ace grabs a tight grip on Poolerās arm and whips him hard into the corner. Pooler hits the turnbuckles with tremendous force, but out of nowhere rebounds from the corner straight back at a shocked opponent. Pooler leaps into the air, his knee colliding with the cheek and jaw of the Ace, knocking him flat on his back. Pooler lands, rolls and pops back up to his feet in the far corner, a sadistic smile on his face. The referee, standing beside the Ace whoās eyes blink absently at the overhead arena lights, begins his ten count.
Oneā¦ Twoā¦ Threeā¦
Pooler limps from the corner towards the Ace.
Fourā¦ Fiveā¦ Sixā¦ Sevenā¦
He stands at his head, smiling down as the referee continues.
Eightā¦ Nineā¦ Ten!
Poolerās eyes donāt leave the Ace as the ring bell sounds and the referee raises his hand in victory.}Vasco Dias: Pooler certainly stole that win tonight. Terri Morasco: I donāt know about stole, but he certainly ended up on the lucky end of things. Vasco Dias: Well, sometimes you hit blackjack and other times you bust; tonight it just looks like Pooler managed to beat the house. ----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT "Respect earned"
---------------------------------------------------------- {Backstage at the arena, the camera's pick up on two familiar voices that carry from around the corner. Before the ladies come into view, we immediately recognize the voice of Amber Richards.}Amber Richards: ....So, basically I am glad that you and I could take this opportunity to talk... {The angle shifts and we see Amber Richards, her back to the camera. Her silken black hair hangs loose about her shoulders, her body language a little off, one hand on her hip. Stood before her, is Ana Valentine; the Diamond's Championship slung over her shoulder, a well manicured hand resting on it gently.}Amber Richards: I wanted to say Congratulations Ana, you earned it. {Amber thrusts a hand out towards Ana, who takes it in her own the pair shake hands awkwardly. Ana half smiles and holds onto Amber's hand, not gripping it but just holding it as she leans in a little closer.}Ana Valentine: I am so sorry Amber... {Amber looks a little taken aback at the words coming from Ana's mouth. Ana nods slightly.}Ana Valentine: What I did... it was unacceptable... I could have seriously injured you.... or worse... {Amber's demeanor changes and softens as she shakes her head slowly.}Amber Richards: No... You did what needed to be done, I admire you for that...I would have done it.... {Ana pulls Amber a little closer as though she wants to hug her, but thinks better of it.}Ana Valentine: I didn't NEED to hurt you Amber... I am sorry you got hurt... {Amber tries to shrug it off, but Ana slides her hand from Amber's and places it on her arm. Ana squeezes the arm of Amber gently with a smile.}Ana Valentine: I hope we can be friends Amber, I really do... ----------------------------------------------------------
EXTREME RULES MATCH Mercedes Vargas vs Crystal Hilton
---------------------------------------------------------- {Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of āHold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Meā by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on waist, and overlooking the crowd.
RING ANNOUNCER: Introducing first/And her opponent/Making her way to the ring/Currently in the ring, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, weighing in at 127 poundsā¦MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS!
Cheers, boos and catcalls soon greet her. Oblivious and yet satisfied with their reaction for several seconds, she flips her long hair, then makes her way to the ring. As she goes up the steps and walks to the end of the ring apron, she climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back as the camera shows her determined expression-perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight. She vaults into the ring and walks over to the opposite corner where she relaxes along the corner ropes while waiting for her opponent(s) to arrive.}Terri Morasco: Mercedes Vargas is the new Ruby Champion and she has been amazing. Vasco Dias: But tonight she has a big challenge... {All of a sudden āSuperstarā by Lupe Fiasco starts playing all over the Pa system. Two lights are pointed at the entrance way. Crystal Emerges through the curtains and is greeted by multiple pyros that start shooting off one by one. The crowd roars at her with a loud ovation of boos and she slowly makes her way out walking down the aisle. Crystal cracks a grin as her photographers line up to take a picture of her but she turns her nose up at the fans as she makes her way to the ring. She finally makes it to the ring and places one foot on the apron and stretches the other one on the apron as well. She does a split to enter the ring and she finally makes it to her feet.}Vasco Dias: Crystal Hilton has not been able to live up to her potential. Terri Morasco: She was a major player in NCW but since then she has done nothing... {Vargas attacks Hilton from behind, Crystal crumbles and Vargas stomps her down, Vargas seems to have a mean streak in her as she mercilessly beats on Crystal over and over again, Vargas pulls Crustal up and hits a snap suplex before rolling her hips and hitting a second, then a third, then as she stands up and goes for a forth she switches gears and holds Crystal up before dropping her on her head with a brainbuster. Vargas gets to her feet and stomps around getting the crowd riled up}Terri Morasco: Oh wow Vargas just attacked Crystal from behind... Vasco Dias: This is crazy {Vargas leaves the ring and pulls out a chair sliding it in, she also pulls out a steel bin filled with weapons and gets it in the ring, Vargas pulls out a kendo stick and just goes to town on Crystal, hitting her over and over. Vargas drops the stick and arrogantly stands above her. Crystal shoves Mercedes back and gets to her feet, Mercedes goes to grab Crystals hair, Crystal slams her fist into Mercedes stomach and she moves back, Crystal runs at Mercedes but Vargas hits the savate kick sending crystal down}Vasco Dias: Oh Crystal tried to fight back but Mercedes just kicked her down... Terri Morasco: Mercedes is just to good... {Mercedes opens a chair and pulls hilton up, she holds her by the face with a smile and puts her in the black rose overdrive(reverse dvd) and she throws Crystal up and over onto the open chair, the crowd ooo's as Mercedes goes for the pin 1...2....3}Vasco Dias: NO NO NO.... Terri Morasco: Crystal Hilton may be broken in half! {Mercedes holds the Ruby title in the air as Crystal stays motionless on the mat with the referee checking on her limp body}

SHANE! { He seethes with anger. }Eddie Black: I donāt know what kind of sh** that was last week but I aināt gonna just lay down and take it. I want a rematch, MURU! You and me, one on one and just for fun Iāll have Frank in my corner, Shane in yours and that way we can see who the hell is better. Frank Black: And if your bit** ass little cousin even thinks of getting involved I will kick his head so hard that youāre gonna feel it! Eddie Black: So what do ya say Muru!?

I would be too. I assure you that's not how I do business. I want to apologize to you and I promise it won't happen again. If you want a rematch you got one. I look forward to proving I can beat you without the help of anyone. { Muru puts him arm around Shane to pull him away from Frank. Ryan takes a step away before turning back to Frank }Ryan Shane: I know my cousin made a promise to your brother, but he doesn't speak for me. If you want a piece of me all you have to do is ask.

SINGLES MATCH Malaki Toala vs Nero Blake
---------------------------------------------------------- {āCry little sister vs hello zeppā by Celldweller plays and the lights go down and a spotlight appears on the stage and Nero is in it, he slowly makes his way down to the ring and runs up the steps before stepping into the ring and dropping to his knees in the center with his arms to his sides and his palms facing outward.}Vasco Dias: Nero Blake is dangerous, he may not be as highly regarded as his brother but he is a talent. Terri Morasco: I'll say...and even though he seems to be a cold heartless human being he is...rather sexy. Vasco Dias: Mind on the job cougar town {"Warrior" by Disturbed blasts out of the speaker as Joey Leroux and Malaki Toala step out from behind the curtains to a chorus of abuse which phases neither man. Malaki stands still as Joey walks confidently and cock-surely a few feet away before he begins to perform the Siva Tau Samoan war dance before letting out a large roar as pyro explodes either side of him. Marching down to the ring with intent Joey psyches up the big man whilst arrogantly trading insults with the crowd on their way to the ring. As they reach the apron Malaki lifts himself up as he climbs into the ring whilst Joe begins to circle clapping and both psyching and winding up the crowd.}Terri Morasco: Malaki always looks intense. Vasco Dias: And it doesn't go well for his opponents {Malaki and Nero walk to the center of the ring. They get face to face and Nero smirks arrogantly and says something to Malaki who shoves him back. Nero launches forward and hits a hard right hand. Malaki stumbles back and then floors Nero with a right of his own, Nero rolls from the ring and holds his jaw, he walks past Joey and then lunges at Malaki's manager, Joey stumbles back as Nero shakes his head, Nero climbs up onto the apron, he stares at Malaki and gets in slowly, he moves around Malaki and goes to lock up with him, Malaki uses his strength to throw Nero back first into the corner. Nero steps out and goes to lock up with Malaki again, this time the champion shoves Nero back and over the top rope to the floor.}Vasco Dias: Our imperial Champion is amazingly powerful Terri..did you see what he just did to Nero? Terri Morasco: And Nero Blake is not a small man, he's the same height as Malaki but Malaki is just a powerhouse. {Nero moves around the ring, Malaki follows him and moves behind him, Nero spins around at the last moment as Malaki runs and Nero pushes Malaki right into the steel steps, Joey shakes his head and screams "no" as Nero laughs and walks up the steps as Malaki's head stays on the top, Nero jumps and stomps on Malaki's head smashing it against the steel steps. Nero leaps back down and slides Malaki under the bottom rope. Malaki shakes his head trying to clear the cobwebs out. Nero calls for Malaki to get up and as he does Nero leaps up and spins hitting a heel kick. Nero goes for the pin 1.....2....Malaki kicks out.}Vasco Dias: Nero has taken control after Malaki had it early... Terri Morasco: But Malaki is a tough human being... {Nero hits Malaki in the tp of the head with hard right hands, he stops and gets to his feet turning his attention to Joey who is pounding on the mat at ringside. Nero walks over to the ropes and kneels down getting in Joey's face, Malaki pulls himself to his feet and Nero turns in time to seet him but as Nero moves in for the kill Malaki hooks nero's leg and picks him up in a firemans carry before throwing Nero up and over with a powerslam. Malaki pulls himself and Nero up, Malaki hits a few right hands and then whips Nero into the ropes and runs forward with a big boot causing nero to slam into the mat holding his face.}Terri Morasco: NO NOT HIS FACE! Vasco Dias: Are you freakin serious? {Nero moves around and gets to his feet Malaki shoves Nero into the corner and chokes him before grabbing Nero's wrist and pulling him out with a shortarm clothesline. Nero again goes down 1....2...Nero kicks out. Malaki stomps his foot and calls for his spear. He runs in and Nero moves out of the way, Malaki crashes into the middle turnbuckle and stumbles back, Nero grabs Malaki and hits the arm hook backbreaker. Malaki holds his back and rolls around, Nero goes for the pin 1....2...Malaki kicks out. Nero slams his fist against the mat.}Vasco Dias: Nero getting frustrated here... Terri Morasco: Malaki won't stay down... {Nero pulls Malaki up and whips him into the ropes, he lifts Malaki up and hits the very european uppercut, Malaki falls to his knees as Nero calls for the snapmare driver, he grabs Malaki and Malaki blocks it, he shoves Nero forward and as Nero spins around Malaki picks him up over his shoulder ready for the enter the red zone powerslam, Nero slides off Malaki's shoulders. Nero goes for the guillotine but Malaki throws Nero up and back and as Nero lands on his feet Malaki explodes with a spear! 1...2.....3 }Terri Morasco: Malaki wins! Vasco Dias: Our champ is good {Malaki grabs the title and holds it over his head as Nero struggles to his feet, Alice runs down to the ring and Nero turns with a smile on his face, she slides in the ring with bruises on her face and arms looking timid}Terri Morasco: It's Alice Pleasant...she's back... {The crowd raise in a chorus of boos as Angel appears at the top of the ramp, a microphone in hand; he begins to slowly walk down the ramp. Confused by the appearance of his brother, Nero turns his back to Alice and walks to the edge of the ring to watch Angelās approach.
Unbeknownst to Nero, Renee jumps the barrier from within the crowd and steps into the ring over the top rope, Alice watches her brother cautiously, pushing up on the balls of her feet to stare him down for a moment. Before Nero can even notice or react, Renee has grabbed Alice by the arm and dragged her over to one of the corners of the ring. }Vasco Diaz: What the hell is going on?! Terri Monasco: Whatever it is... I have a feeling it isnāt good Vasco... {Renee tosses Alice down to the floor and stands over her, pulling a pair of handcuffs from his back pocket, Alice stares up at Renee, the picture of confusion on her face as she quietly asks him what is going on. Nero turns to see something going on between them in the corner, as he moves to approach; Angel raises the mic to his lips.}Angel: Nero... {The authority in his voice causes Nero to spin back around and watch his brother as Angel climbs the steels steps and moves into the ring, standing in front of his brother, he holds a hand out, telling him to wait... As he is doing this, Renee has grabbed both wrists of Alice and slid the handcuffs around the column of the turnbuckle, securing her in place with the cuffs.
Alice pulls against them for a moment but the action is futile... Renee stands over her and laughs. He then steps to one side and, stepping over the top rope, he jumps down from the ring, approaching the announcers table slowly.}Vasco Diaz: Is he coming over here?! {Renee reaches the announcers table and begins scrambling around, Terri Monasco jumps up and vacates her seat quickly, standing behind Vasco, obviously intimidated by the huge hulking form of Renee as he shoves around the back of the table.}Angel: Nero... You have forced my hand... I requested obedience of you and you spat in my face! I have protected you long enough; you do not appreciate the things I have done for you... The sacrifices I have made! {Angels voice raises a little in anger as he begins to pace in front of his brother, Angel runs a hand through his hair and turns to look at Nero again. Nero stands, watching Angelās movements, looking confused and concerned all at once.
Alice pulls against the cuffs still, but makes no sound... She tries to stand but the imbalance of losing use of her hands sends her back down onto her knees and she pulls forward, but the cuffs offer no room for movement.}Angel: The time has come for you to learn your place. This lesson is one in obedience and sacrifice... This hurts me more than it hurts you Nero... I didnāt want to do this... You left me no choice... {Alice screams out Neroās name but it is too late and as he turns to look at Alice he is met with a steel chair to the face. The chair is in the hands of Renee, whose brute force driving the chair knocks Nero square down to the mat. Neroās skin has been torn open from the sheer force of the blunt edge of the chair striking him and blood trickles down into his left eye. Renee then drives the edge of the chair into the ribs and abdomen of Nero over and over again, not stopping for breath.
As she is forced to watch the attack Alice begins screaming for Renee to stop, her voice alternates between angry, desperate screams that plea for him to stop and an almost quiet pained sobbing as tears flush down her cheeks. She yanks against the cuffs, fighting with every ounce of strength in her body, twisting her arms around, desperately trying to free herself.
Angelās expression begins to change from anger as he watches Renee slam the back of the chair over Neroās head, blood pools in the blonde hair of Nero and spills onto the mat... Nero rolls to his side but doesnāt move from that position as Renee tosses the chair across the ring and begins to stomp at the head and ribs of Nero... His boot lands meticulously every time, for optimal effect. As he continues the assault, Renee screams obscenities in Romani at Nero, occasionally stopping for the briefest second to look at Alice... Renee wipes a hand over his own face and with it, smears the blood of Nero across his cheeks.}Vasco Diaz: How can Angel just stand there and watch this happen...? {Renee then pulls Nero up, as Nero sways on his feet slightly, Renee lands a hard left hook to the jaw of Nero, who takes a step or two back, leaning in the ropes before sliding down them. Renee slams his foot into Neroās stomach, causing him to curl forwards and lie back on the canvas.
Renee walks over to where the chair lies discarded, as he walks back over he turns and raises the chair above his head, as he goes to swing down, he feels the chair being pulled from his grasp. Renee turns and finds the chair now in the hands of Angel. Renee steps back and sweeps an arm over Nero, inviting Angel to join in...
Angel shakes his head slowly and mouths the word āENOUGHā. Renee scoffs for a moment but then nods, he steps over Nero, punting the toe of his boot into Neroās temple with one last cheap shot, before stalking across the ring to Alice.
Alice sits on her knees, hanging forward, her arms outstretched behind her, pulling at her bonds as she has dissolved into hysterical crying. Her head hangs down, her chin touching her chest as she has pulled herself as close to Nero as she physically can, before falling apart due to her own helplessness.
As Renee releases the shackles of her cuffs, she falls forward onto, just getting her hands out in front of her, now on her hands and knees at Reneeās feet. Renee grabs a handful of Aliceās hair and yanks her up to her feet. He holds her out at armās length with a smirk on his lips.}Terri Monasco: Surely this is over?! Vasco Diaz: Oh, are you back with us now Terri...? Terri Monasco: Shut up Vasco, I didnāt see you leaping in to defend me... {Nero has just managed to roll onto one knee, his whole body slumped over on that knee, but his eyes open, trained on Renee who now holds Alice in his grasp. He waivers slightly but tries to stand... Angel places a hand on Neroās shoulder and shoves him back down. He leans down and we can just read his lips as he quietly tells his brother to stay down.
Renee laughs and pulls Alice close, one hand remains in her hair, the other snakes around her middle as he pulls her body into his... Alice struggles a little, but the fight has left her now, her eyes searching for the bloodied and broken form of Nero.
Renee forces Alice closer to him still, as his lips find hers and he holds her head in place through her hair, Alice struggles against him, trying to push back but Renee pulls her in tighter still... The kiss is deep and lingers... For what seems like an eternity the entire arena is silent as Renee forces this act on his own sister....}Terri Monasco: Oh my god... I canāt watch any more... {Renee pulls Alice away from him quickly and flings her across the ring like a rag doll, she lands beside Nero, flat on her face. But she quickly scrambles up to sit in front of Nero; she throws her arms out either side as though she is offering some meagre sign of protection.
Renee simply laughs and turns his back on them both, stepping back over the top rope; he begins to back up towards the ramp. Leaving the remaining three in the ring, Alice turns her head and simply stares at Angel, her eyes searching his as she slumps back against the fallen form of Nero, her question is screaming from her eyes and after a moment, she screams it at him from her lips to...}Alice Pleasant: How could you...?
