[Dark Lord Simon de Montfort]

{A highlight package is shown, clips from the epic high flying matches so far in IWF. A fitting opening to a cruiserweight themed house show. A clip of Bushido, winning the IWF Cruiserweight championship in a huge ladder match at Bloody Assizes is freeze framed before cutting to the studio where Trent and Angel sit side by side on stools.}

Trent Helms: "Greetings fans and watchers around the world! I am your host with the most, Trent Helms, and joining me this week as we take a look at the fine art of aerial combat is none other than the head of the division himself, Angel!"

Angel: "Thanks for having me again Trent, we have the best and the brightest stars in my division, and I can't wait to see what sort of amazing shenanigans they find themselves in this week."

Trent Helms: "Right you are, but with no official challenger named to face Bushido for the forseeable future, I think everyone will be looking to make an impact right here tonight."

Angel: "Our guys make impacts every week. but you are right. I'll be keeping my eye open to see which one of these guys takes the next step and shows me how hungry he is for the next chance at the gold. And I will tell you, that it could be anyone."

Trent Helms: "Everyone looks to be the next person to blaze that new trail, so let's get it started in here and see who fires the opening volley as we get to the action!"

Angel: Let's do this thing!

Trent Helms: "First up, a rematch from last week. Gjenrei and Freakke fought to a no contest when the referee stopped the match due to Freakke's injuries, something neither man seemed happy about."

Angel: "None of the guys in the locker room are afraid of a little pain or injury, so to have to be told to stop when they want to keep going will frustrate anyone. Especially a man like Gjenrei, who wants to finish each match on his own terms, win or lose."

Singles Match
Freakke the Clown vs Gjenrei

{Highlights of the opening part of the match. Freakke and Gjenrei are evenly matched as they move about the ring, using quick moves like arm drags and hip tosses to try and put one over on the other, but each has the other well scouted and the match is fast paced back and forth action. But Freakke gains the upper hand by countering an irish whip and nailing an excellent enziguri to the side of the masked man's head.}

Trent Helms: "Nice move by the clown, and now he needs to captialize as the bells inside Gjenrei's head are definitely ringing loud and clear."

Angel: "If there is a thing Freakke lacks, it's a killer zero in instinct. He needs that to stay on top and win this match, let's see if he can do it."

{The next part of the match shows Freakke using his maneuverability and quickness to stay just ahead and out of reach, using a complex series of strikes and quick moves like DDTs and head scissor takedowns. With Gjenrei down, Freakke attempts a springboard leg drop, only to have the move countered by Gjenrei pouncing to his feet and nailing a mid air dropkick.}

Trent Helms: "I taught him that."

Angel: "Actually, I'm pretty sure I taught him that.."

Trent Helms: "Let's agree to disagree."

{The next part of the match shows Gjenrei in control, using strikes to keep Freakke grounded and attacking his legs to reduce his speed. Once he has Freakke hobbled a little, he picks up the pace, using momentum to add force to each strike to the head, back and chest of the clown. Gjenrei goes airborne, nailing a springboard tornado DDT, but the follow up attack was countered by a drop toehold from Freakke.}

Trent Helms: "Neither man can keep the upper hand for long, and we're still looking for who will pull out the win here."

Angel: "This is what cruiserweight wrestling is all about, and this is why this match is opening the show tonight. It's fast, exciting, the crowd is loving it, and we're in for a hell of a finish."

{Freakke heads up top for a big top drop, but Gjenrei meets him there, knocking him off the top rope and out of the ring. Freakke lands hard, his lower leg and ankle crashing into the steel ring steps. Freakke looks to be in serious pain, as he rolls outside on the floor.}

Trent Helms: "That spells trouble. That leg hit those stairs with a sound that everyone in the building heard. He may have broken something."

Angel: "But he's refusing to let this match be called a draw. Look, I know you're a pro wrestler, but come on, if you can't stand, you can't fight."

{Freakke crawls into the ring, shoving aside the referee's attempt to stop a second match. But it's clear that he can't even stand with all the damage to his lower leg. Freakke tries his best, throwing a haymaker, but with only one leg it just sends him off balance and Gjenrei grabs him to lay him flat with a Ryojoku no Ame. He reaches down for the pin, but Freakke kicks out at 2!}

Trent Helms: "That's the heart of a competitor right there, refusing to give in even when you have nothing left. Another page borrowed from the Trent Helms playbook."

Angel: "You can say a lot of things about Freakke, but you can't deny his courage."

{Gjenrei backs off, allowing Frekke time to get to his feet, but nothing has changed. The clown is still barely able to stand and can put no pressure on his injured leg. Gjenrei puts his ego aside, and extends his hand, and helps Freakke out of the ring and up the ramp. The match is thrown out with no winner, but the crowd is on their feet cheering for the display of sportsmanship.}

Trent Helms: "Another match between them with no winner, but I'm sure people are more worried about the condition of Freakke than his losing streak."

Angel: "A lot of men would have quit, Freakke didn't. A lot of men would have taken advantage of that for an easy win, Gjenrei didn't. This is what wrestling is supposed to be, and I'm glad we were all here to see it."

Trent Helms: "We'll give you word on Freakke's condition when we get it, folks. But right now, we have to move on to the next match."

Angel: "A match with one of your favorite guys. Wait.. Trent.. where the hell did he disappear to?"

Singles Match
Future Trent Helms vs Caleb Lockwood

{Future Trent and Caleb start the match off in a rush, with Trent overcoming the younger Caleb with his experience and ring knowledge. Caleb tries to defend himself, but every move he makes is countered by the more savvy future Trent. Trent takes control early, and starts to work over the younger Caleb with precision.}

Angel: "Looks like future Trent just might be as good as the person he claims to be. I still wish I knew where the hell the real Trent disappeared to."

{Trent starts to get more aggressive, taking more chances with his offense, and it costs him. Trent leaps off the top rope for a perfect moonsault, and Caleb meets him midair with a knee strike, driving the knee into Trents head with extra force from the height of impact. Caleb starts to gain speed now, using his unique parkour offense to keep the more experienced man grounded and start piling on the damage.}

Angel: "A fully motional Caleb Lockwood is a hard force to stop. Trent needs to find a way to bide his time and wait for an opening. ...Man, I wish I had someone to feed off of."

{But the opportunity never arises. Trent takes a chance with a counter move, but Caleb notices it and doesn't fall for it, then hits the Skyscraper Press moonsault, getting the 3 count.}

Angel: "Caleb pulls out a pretty solid victory here today, against probably one of the toughest opponents you can face. If he is who he says he is.."

Trent Helms: "So, what did I miss?"

Angel: "Where were you? And why are you panting?"

Trent Helms: "I ran to concession, I needed a hot dog."

Angel: "Oh... wait.. they don't sell hot dogs"

Trent Helms: "Moving onto the next match, Seth Evans pairing up against Stephen Kingsley."

Angel: "Don't change the subject!"

Singles Match
Seth Evans vs Stephen Kingsley

{Evans starts off the match, getting an early upper hand with strikes, then following that with a few holds to keep Kingsley off balance. Evans stays methodical, keeping the pressure on holds designed to harm the limbs of Kingsley, specifically his arms. Evans mixes it up, using a solid side backbreaker and then an arm trap body slam to put Kingsley on the mat, but he's unable to get a three count and the match continues.}

Angel: "Evans keeping the pressure on, but he doesn't seem to have his usual sharpness."

Trent Helms: "Maybe because you see things that aren't there."

{Evans takes just a bit too much time to keep the pressure on and Kingsley manages to nail a huge right hand that staggers Evans, and Kingsley gets a hold of him, planting him down with a huge sidewalk slam. From there, it goes downhill for Seth Evans. Everytime Seth starts to get his bearings, Kingsley overpowers him and nails another devastating power move. But even so, Seth refuses to stay down for three.}

Trent Helms: "I'm usually unfair to Seth Evans, but he can be pretty tough at times. Though it usually doesn't last."

Angel: "What my broadcast partner is trying to say, is that Seth Evans is always a tough, strong competitor."

Trent Helms: "No, I meant what I said."

{Evans tries to mount a comeback, but he's simply too tired, and Kingsley is too strong. A mighty effort, but Kingsley gets a hold of him and flips him end over end with the Guilty as Charged flipping piledriver. Stephen goes for the pin, and gets the three count.}

Trent Helms: "Kingsley pulls out a pretty good victory, a good show of force in this one."

Angel: "Pretty decisive victory over a solid heavyweight like Seth Evans. This will go a long way towards his future in IWF."

Singles Match
Brad Kane vs Jake Keeton

Trent Helms: "Now the match I'm sure a lot of people have been clamoring for. Keeton and Kane are two amazing wrestlers who can light up a ring almost as much as yours truly. This should be good."

Angel: "I'd book this match every week if I could. Instant classic every time."

{Keeton and Kane start the match carefully, neither showing weakness or letting the other take advantage. The two decorated ring veterans match each other move for move, until Keeton manages a quick snap jab that stuns Brad just enough for Jake to take him over with a snapmare and then start assaulting him with kicks. Keeton assumes control, an armbar transitioned into a ddt, transitioned into a back wristlock. Seamless move to hold from a ring veteran.}

Trent Helms: "Keeton starting out in control. But he needs to keep up this pace and not let Brad have any time to breathe."

Angel: "Otherwise these positions will be reversed, both men can match up with the best of them."

{Keeton attempts a pin, but Brad kicks out at 2. Keeton moves to follow up, but Brad snaps a kick from out of nowhere to stagger Jake. Kane follows up, hammering the body and head of Keeton with fists, elbows, knees and feet. Hip toss, superior football kick to the back, snap dropkick to the face, Brad counters Jakes wrestling technique with strike after strike.}

Trent Helms: "One moment is all it takes and now Brad is in full control of this match."

Angel: "And even though, he faces the same problems. One moment will be all it takes for Keeton to resume control."

{Brad goes for a cover, but Keeton kicks out at 2. Brad sets his body, allowing Keeton to get to his feet. Brad lines up a Spinning Back fist, but Keeton ducks under it, hitting the ropes and nailing a Jaw Jacker spinning elbow. Brad stays on his feet, but for all intents and purposes, he's out cold, and he slowly falls to the mat. Keeton looks a bit conflicted, eyeing his elbow pad before dropping down for a lazy cover, showing full confidence that Brad Kane is out cold. Jake gets the three count and begins to celebrate, while Brad Kane is still motionless.}

Trent Helms: "How hard did he hit him? Brad is out cold."

Angel: "Maybe that elbow pad, isn't a normal elbow pad."

Trent Helms: "The fact that Brad is still not moving, leads me to believe you may be onto something there but we can't dwell for too long because the Main Event is up next."

Main Event
Triple Threat
Alex Jones vs. Rob Diamond vs. Bushido

Angel: "And what a Main Event it was. Two of this division's brightest take on the champion and though Brad Kane has said his piece about contending for the title, nothing has been set in stone."

Trent Helms: "So what you're saying is one of these two dudes with attitude might be on the short list?"

Angel: "Maybe... Maybe not."

{The three cruiserweights circle each other carefully, mouthing off to one another before Jones has had enough and rushes Diamond with a forearm. Bushido watches for a second while Rob and Alex go at it, trading blows. Bushido finally responds by charging in but as he does, both men bend their knees and send Bushido flying over the ropes to the outside with a double back body drop.}

Trent Helms: "There's some high flying I didn't teach him."

Angel: "Are you sure about that? Because I remember seeing you in that position plenty of times."

Trent Helms: "Moving on."

{Bushido has been on the outside, holding the side of his ribs since the beginning of the match. Rob and Alex have been putting on a clinic in the ring that has got the fans cheering their little heads off. Rob pitches Alex to the corner, rushing in with a body splash only Jones gets both legs up and drills Diamond in the chest. Rob stumbles about, turning his back to Alex who goes for a running bulldog only Diamond is able to throw Alex off the attempt, sending him crashing into the turnbuckles. Rob drops to a knee, clearly winded after a few minutes against Alex when Bushido pushes the medic assisting him out of the way and climbs on the apron, springboarding into the ring with a wheel kick to the back of Diamond's head. Bushido hooks a leg but only gets a two count}

Angel: "Always opportunistic it seems."

Trent Helms: "That's why he's champion."

Angel: "I have to agree with that."

{Bushido is attempting to pin both gentlemen who lie side by side but to no avail. Eventually Bushido gets tired and begins to lift Alex by his hair when Alex strikes back with a jawbreaker. Bushido stumbles back and Jones hurries to his feet, rushing into Bushido with a dropsault, flipping back to his feet and then nailing Bushido with a clothesline. Jones is on fire as he pumps his fist before dropping for a pin but only gets a 2 count.}

Trent Helms: "A lot of back and forth in this match. Nobody ever had the upper hand."

Angel: "That's the thing with these fast paced matches. You always have to have eyes on the back of the head. But not all of it was high flying as we are about to see."

{Three men are swinging at one another. No fancy high flying just straight up brawling. There is a clear dislike among these gentlemen that continue to fight until both Alex and Rob end up punching and kicking Bushido into a corner. Once Bushido has been dispatched, Rob and Alex turn their attention on one another. Rob whips Alex into the ropes and goes for a back body drop that Jones hops over. Alex continues running, rebounding off the ropes again and sliding underneath a leap frog, turning as he gets back to his feet to catch Rob with a snapmare. Jones goes for a stiff kick to the spine but Rob rolls out of the way and back to his feet, aiming a superkick that catches Alex right in the jaw and then plants him with a Diamond Cutter.}

Trent Helms: "The ending coming up was a true shocker."

Angel: "I'm not sure I liked it but it was still entertaining."

{Miranda hops unto the ring apron, distracting Rob for a second while Bushido gets to his feet and prepares the blood mist. Unfortunately right as he is about to strike, Brad's theme song hits the speakers. This distracts Bushido long enough as he waits for Brad to show but nothing comes of it. When Bushido finally goes to spit in Rob's face, Diamond ducks out of the way and it's Miranda that gets a face full of Blood Mist. Bushido is horrified and Rob hits him with the Diamond Cutter, immediately going for the pin. Jones, who was out thanks to a superkick and a cutter, dives to break it up but is half a second too late and Rob picks up the victory.}

Angel: Miranda gets what she deserves and Rob picks up a great victory.

Trent Helms: Gotta give it up to Alex. He showed off his heart and fought hard in this match

Angel: I agree. Great way to end the show.

{The show ends with Alex rolling out of the ring disappointed as Bushido crawls to Miranda on the outside. Rob celebrates his victory in the ring.}

Monday Night Sacrifice
8th July 2013
Allen County War Memorial Coliseum, Indiana

{ Pyro erupts once again as another episode of IWF Sacrifice is broadcast to the world, the crowd at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum are going nuts as the camera show shots of lots of happy fans waving their placards before we join Trent Helms, Terri Morasco and Vasco Dias ready for another chaotic week of action. }

Terri Moarsco: Welcome everyone to Monday Night Sacrifice, what a show we have lined up for you, the Heir and Heiress to the Throne tournaments continue to rage on in earnest, things are definitely hotting up!

Trent Helms: Even you Terri.

Vasco Dias: Wow, brilliant observational skills Helms.

Terri Morasco: Mercifully, lets just get this show under way, shall we?

Clearing the Air

----------------------------------------------------------

{ We are suddenly taken backstage where we can see Katherine Lockheart sat behind her desk, looking through some papers when there is a knock at her door. }

Katherine Lockheart: Come in.

{ Katherine looks up and suddenly her expression becomes incredibly serious as the looming figures of Alysson Gardner and Ayla St. James stand before her. }

Katherine Lockheart: Ladies… I see you got my message, please have a seat.

Alysson Gardner: We’d rather stand.

{ Katherine looks down and sniggers to herself. }

Katherine Lockheart: Very well, have it your way. Listen, I am not going to beat around the bush here, I’ve heard what you’ve had to say, I know you feel as though you’re being victimised by an impotent airhead who just has it in for you, but quite frankly, you’re wrong.

Ayla St. James: You’ve got a funny way of showing it.

Katherine Lockheart: Well, let’s assess the situation, shall we? I know that I issued a perceived slight when I booked you and Emma in a match, but quite honestly, that is purely because the three of you are some the most talented wrestlers on the roster and you have an obvious connection, nothing more, nothing less. There was no intent to divide and conquer…

Alysson Gardner: Then what about the handicap bullshit you pulled on us?

Katherine Lockheart: If you would allow me to finish, Miss Gardner?

{ Alysson mutters something under he breath before reluctantly allowing her to carry on. }

Katherine Lockheart: When you took out Ryleigh I simply had no choice but to punish you, what sort of message do you think it sends out if I do nothing after an attack like that?

Ayla St. James: It was just business.

Katherine Lockheart: And, despite your assumptions, I was impressed. Who wouldn’t make use of their friendships to help thin out the competitive field to guarantee spots in the final four? I hold no grudges ladies, anybody in your shoes would have done the same, but anybody with a spine in mine had to make sure justice was seen to be done. Did you feel slighted by being the inferior number in that match Alysson? Good. I have so much faith in your ability to overcome adversity that I knew you’d perform in that role, that you’d be driven. Ayla? I needed to see that you were truly capable of fulfilling your promise to bypass allegiances and put down your friend to succeed.

And guess what ladies, you passed the test.

The fact is ladies, I expect big things from the pair of you. I will never hold you down, but if you test me, I will punish you and if you feel that is me pushing my weight around, I apologise, but I am under strict instructions to deal with insubordination from my own bosses. Although, quite honestly, Alysson, when my boss is Roberto Verona, a dear friend of your husband, do you truly think he’d allow me to victimise you?

Ayla St. James: That is all well and good, Lockheart, but going into next week we’ve been forced to stare at the heels of our inferior as they get a headstart.

{ Katherine smiles. }

Katherine Lockheart: Ladies I guarantee to you that in the final week of our Heiress to the Throne competition every woman will be in with a chance of entering that final four, regardless of their position so I suggest that the time for talking is over, I want to see the two of your prove to me how good you really are. No games.

Alysson Gardner: Just make sure you do…

Katherine Lockheart: Would I ever cross you? Now, if you excuse me ladies, I am a very busy woman…

{ Ayla and Alysson look at each other before staring at Lockheart and exiting, whispering to one another. A few moments pass before Katherine leans across the desk and slides a polaroid across to herself, picking it up. }

Katherine Lockheart: They say behind every great man is a good woman, let's see how good you really are...

{ Katherine tosses the polaroid across the room and as the camera pans down we can see a photograph of Katherine in a red bikini on the beach, stood infront of Jake Conway in his shorts, and it is obvious that this photograph was from a time when they were both very much in love as he has his arms around her waist and his head over her shoulder eas Sacrifice cuts to a commercial break. }

MATCH
SINGLES MATCH
Doc vs Davey Ortega

----------------------------------------------------------

{"Ladies and Genetleman'' hits the speakers as the fans have a mixed reaction. Davey Ortega comes from the back and stand on the entrance way looking to the ring, then eyeing both sides of the crowd.}

Alison Valance: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall... Introducing first... From Atlantic City, New Jersey... Weighing in at one hundred and seventy pounds.... Davey Ortega!"

{He walks down the ring with confidence, making his way up the stairs to the apron, he walks to the middle of the apron and turns to acknowledge the fans, raising his hand for a photo opportunity before he gets into the ring and waits.}

Vasco Dias: "Davey Ortega is a man you have a storied history with, Trent. Tell us a little bit about this IWF newcomer."

Trent Helms: "He's terrible. He's the worst. He's the kind of guy you spend two minutes with and you spend the whole time wishing for death's embrace."

Terri Morasca: "So you're saying you don't care for him then?"

Trent Helms: "He's the Frieza of my existence. That should answer your question."

{As the fans wait in anticipation, "Victory" hits over the PA and the crowd rise to their feet, awaiting the arrival of Doc. The lights then turn to darkness, a blue glow illuminating the top of the ramp and two white strobe lighting bolts shining across it.}

Alison Valance: "And his opponent... From Glasgow, Scotland.... Weighing in tonight at two hundred and sixteen pounds.... This is Doc!"

{They cross over in a huge "X" shape, like the St. Andrews flag of Scotland, and as Doc walks out and stands under the "X", the lights turn back on Doc hops on a the spot a couple of times, before speeding up his approach to the ring as the song enters its chorus.}

Terri Morasca: "Doc is another NCW mainstay making his debut in Imperial Wrestling here tonight, and from what I've been told, this guy is going to make waves."

Trent Helms: "Then keep him away from the IWF Summer Pool Party. Vasco doesn't want him screwing up his above ground pool."

Vasco Dias: "I don't think that's what she meant, Trent... And from what I've seen of Doc, I think it's only a matter of time before he's one of our top players."

Terri Morasca: "We've already seen the animosity between himself and Angel. I think we're seeing the start of something big."

{The referee calls for the bell and both men stare each other down from across the ring, with Ortega smirking at his opponent. The two wrestlers move in towards the center of the ring and jockey for position before locking up in the collar-in-elbow position. Ortega quickly breaks it and sweeps under, going behind and grabbing Doc around the waist. Doc blocks a move attempt and spins around, pulling Davey into the DDT position, but Davey immediately breaks it and pulls Doc for a Short Arm Clothesline. Doc then ducks that and catches Ortega's arm and spins for the Neckbreaker, but Davey blocks it and pulls Doc into Backslide position. Doc uses his strength advantage to stop the pin attempt and lift Ortega back-to-back, before flipping him over and back in front of himself. Doc hits a boot to the gut and looks to hit the ropes, but Davey follows him in and hits a clubbing Axe Handle Smash as Doc bounces off the ropes, taking him down to the mat. Doc is up quickly and Davey hits him with a European Uppercut that backs him into the ropes. Ortega shoots Doc off and looks for the Dropkick as he rebounds. Doc grabs the top rope and stops himself, causing Ortega to miss the Dropkick, and as he stands up, Doc hits him with a Clothesline.}

Vasco Dias: "There doesn't look to be any rust on these two wrestlers so far."

Terri Morasca: "They seem to be evenly matched."

{Ortega is up quickly from the Clothesline and charges, getting caught by a deep Arm Drag from Doc. The Scottish superstar locks up the arm immediately, wrenching it as Davey tries to get back to his feet. Ortega pushes up to a vertical base with Doc still holding his arm, but he manages to break it with three big punches to the gut. Ortega pulls Doc into a Side Headlock, and keeps it locked in as the bigger man lifts him off the mat and puts him back down. Doc backs himself and his opponent into the ropes and sends Ortega off, catching him with a Shoulder Block as he rebounds. Doc immediately runs to the ropes and Ortega rolls to his stomach and pushes up to his hands and knees. Doc jumps over him and hits the opposing ropes, but Ortega jumps to his feet and hits a Standing Dropkick underneath the chin. He climbs on top and goes for a quick cover. 1... Doc kicks out.}

Terri Morasca: "It's too early for a pin. There's no way Doc was going to stay down for the count."

Vasco Dias: "It's never too early to try."

{Both men are up in a flash, with Ortega trying to grab his opponent, but Doc pushes him back a step and fires off a big Knife Edge Chop.... and another Chop backs Davey up even further. Ortega holds his stinging chest, leaving himself open to a boot to the gut from Doc, who pulls him into Piledriver position. Ortega blocks the move and flips Doc over his head, as Doc tries to roll the move into a Sunset Flip Pin. But Davey drops down with his knees across Doc's shoulders and goes for a pin of his own! 1.... 2... Kick out!}

Terri Morasca: "And Davey nearly got the win there, catching Doc by surprise with that pinfall attempt."

Trent Helms: "It was a smart counter. No one ever said Davey wasn't smart. They just said he's a whiney little asshat. Which may or may not be entirely accurate."

{Davey is pushed off of the pin, and gets to his feet first by a slight margin. Again Ortega locks on a Side Headlock, but Doc scouts it and lifts him high in the air and drops him over his back. Davey lands on his feet behind Doc and grabs him quickly, turning and hitting a Hangman's Neckbreaker on 'The Boyhood Dream'. Ortega tries to go for another pinfall, but Doc rolls onto his belly. Ortega grabs him by the head and starts to pull him up, and Doc responds with a forearm shot to the gut, and pulls Ortega into a Standing Front Facelock. Doc works on the head before pulling Ortega towards the turnbuckles and tossing him in. The Glasgow native fires off a gut punch, and then a Jab, and then another gut punch, showing off his boxing background. Doc stuns Ortega with a big Hook and steps back as Davey stumbles out of the corner, lifting and taking him down with a big Scoop Slam. Doc heads through the ropes and climbs to the top rope, looking to hit Air Glasgow, but Ortega wisely rolls under the bottom rope and to the floor. Davey stands, pointing at his head, signifying that he's the smartest man in the room, not noticing that Doc has dropped down to the apron and leaps off, hitting a Springboard Corkscrew Plancha as Davey turns back toward the ring.}

Vasco Dias: "And Doc takes to the air, going high risk to the arena floor."

Trent Helms: "He's obviously been watching some Trent Helms tapes. Nobody does high-flying like me."

Terri Morasca: "Then I'd say he's a close second or third."

{Doc gets to his feet first and looks down at Ortega as the self-professed 'genius' slowly begins to stir. Doc rips him up from the mat and holds him by the neck and trunks, tossing him shoulder-first into the ringside steps! Doc rolls into the ring to break the referee's count before rolling back out and grabbing Ortega, pushing him back into the ring. He slides in as well and goes for the pin. 1.... 2.. Ortega gets the shoulder up. Doc gets up and pulls Ortega up as well, delivering an elbow shot to the back of his neck before pulling him in and hitting a Snap Suplex, keeping him hooked up and rolling over to a vertical base, chaining together a second Snap Suplex. He floats over into the pin. 1.... 2.. Davey gets the shoulder up for a second time. Doc grabs Ortega by the head and lifts him up, as Ortega responds with a surprise Jawbreaker that rocks the attacking opponent. Ortega turns to run towards the ropes, but Doc grabs him from behind and drops him down across his knee with a Backbreaker. Ortega is prone on the mat as Doc instantly jumps to the second rope and turns, looking for the Lionsault! Davey gets his knees up, but Doc flips far enough to avoid them, immediately grabbing Ortega's leg and turning him onto his belly for the Doc Lock!}

Terri Morasca: "Doc's going for his finisher! This could be it!"

Trent Helms: "Break his ankle!"

{Davey Ortega wisely counters the move in a flash, rolling through and sending Doc flipping over. He charges Ortega, but Davey leaps into the air and grabs his head, pulling him down for a ring-rattling Jumping DDT. He struggles and rolls Doc onto his back and goes for the pin. 1.... 2... Doc kicks out. Ortega gets to his feet and guides Doc up as well, pulling him into a big knee to the sternum, before turning and hitting a Swinging Neckbreaker. Ortega slowly and cockily steps to the apron and climbs the turnbuckles, but Doc comes out of nowhere to meet him with a punch to the face that stuns the smaller man. Doc climbs to the second turnbuckle and delivers another punch. He hooks Ortega up and looks to score with the Superplex, but Davey blocks it and delivers a Headbutt before pushing Doc off of the turnbuckles with his boot. Ortega grabs Doc around the neck and prepares to leap!}

Vasco Dias: "It looks like he's got him right where he wants him for the Tornado DDT!"

{Ortega jumps from the corner and spins, but Doc, having just been the victim of a DDT, pushes him away in midair. Davey lands on his feet and looks up as Doc goes for a big Left Hook. Davey ducks under the punch and jumps in the air, nailing the Pele Kick without even looking back! Doc crumples to the mat and Ortega goes for the cover. 1.... 2... He kicks out again! Davey pushes up to his feet and watches as Doc gets to his hands and knees, before running and delivering a vicious kick to the ribs of the opponent. Ortega doesn't hestitate to head back up the turnbuckles and leaps off, this time nailing a magnificent Swandive Headbutt to the chest. Davey signals that the end is near before pulling Doc to his feet and grabbing his arm. He tries to take the bigger man to the mat for his signature Saturday Night Ride, but Doc grabs the ropes to prevent himself from being taken to the mat. The referee steps in to pull Ortega off of the attempted submission, allowing Doc to hit a sucker punch as Davey is distracted.}

Terri Morasca: "Both of these men are showing their true colors here tonight by stretching the rules, and each other, to the limit."

Trent Helms: "Hey. Who doesn't love a good sucker punch? I know I do. I've been fighting the urge to punch Vasco for weeks."

{With Davey momentarily stunned, Doc takes the opportunity to grab him from behind and deliver a German Suplex that he bridges into a pin attempt! 1.... 2... Ortega gets his shoulder up! Doc gets to his knees and begins to deliver clubbing forearm shots to the back and kidneys, showing no mercy. He then stands and guides Ortega up as well, sending the smaller man into the ropes. As Ortega rebounds, Doc wraps his arm under Davey's neck and traps him in the Main Event Sleeper Hold! Doc cuts off Ortega's oxygen supply, looking to end this match right now. Ortega drops to a knee, and Doc drops down as well to keep the pressure on. The referee raises Davey's arm once and lets it fall, as the crowd yells out "ONE!" in unison. The ref grabs the lifeless arm of Ortega and lifts it... and it falls again for the "TWO!" count.}

Vasco Dias: "One more drop and Ortega's done."

Trent Helms: "Oh this is beautiful."

{Ortega's arm is raised a third time and let drop.... but he keeps it up and shows signs of life. Ortega comes up from his knee and delivers a back elbow to the gut... and another to loosen Doc's grip. A third back elbow... and then a fourth finally break the grasp, and Davey turns, delivering a boot to the gut the bends Doc at the waist. Ortega hits the ropes and comes off, but Doc catches him with a stiff back elbow to the face that takes him back down. Doc then steps back into the corner and waits, watching as Ortega gets back to his feet. Doc steps forward looking to hit the Genocide Kick, but Ortega sees it coming and pulls the referee in front of himself. Doc stops in-time to avoid hitting the referee, but the distraction allows Ortega to hit a Low Blow undetected in a move he calls 'Hail the Genius'. Doc drops to his knees, holding his groind as Ortega plays ignorant to the whole situation.}

Vasco Dias: "They don't call him a genius for nothing!"

Trent Helms: "Nobody calls him a genius. Well. Nobody except for you, Ortega, and your respective mothers."

Terri Morasca: "He hit a Low Blow and there's nothing the referee can do about it, because he was too distracted by the fear of getting kicked in the head to notice."

{While Doc is in pain on his knees, Ortega looks at him with another smirk, feigning concern, before springboarding off the second rope... and drilling Doc in the head with the 21 Kick! Ortega drags Doc away from the ropes to go for the pin. 1.... 2..... It's not over! Doc gets his shoulder up and Ortega nearly loses his cool. He argues with the referee a moment before pulling Doc to a vertical base and slapping him across the face. Doc steps back and Ortega tries to send him into the ropes with an Irish Whip, but Doc reverses it and sends Ortega instead. As Ortega rebounds, Doc looks to hit the Genocide Kick again, but Ortega ducks under it and grabs Doc from behind, driving him towards the ropes. Ortega goes for the roll-up from behind, but Doc grabs the top rope and Ortega rolls through and to his feet. Doc turns and looks for the Genocide Kick again, but again Ortega avoids it and runs, hitting the ropes. Doc spins around just as Ortega goes to steamroll him with the Setting Sun! Doc leapfrogs it and Ortega turns around... Genocide Kick!}

Vasco Dias: "Genocide Kick! That Superkick is deadly!"

Trent Helms: "He caught him right in the jaw! That'll shut Davey up for once!"

{Doc crawls onto the cover and hooks one leg, going for the pin. 1.... 2.... 3!}

Alison Valance: "Here is your winner by pinfall..... DOC!"

{Doc releases Ortega's leg from the pin and rolls onto his back, looking up as his music begins to play. He gets to his feet and the referee raises his arm as the victor of the match.}

Terri Morasca: "Good grief those two went toe-to-toe in their debut match. Unfortunately, only one man could come out a winner."

Trent Helms: "I loved every minute of it. Especially the time when Ortega got kicked in the face. That was a real highlight for me."

Vasco Dias: "It wasn't an easy fight by any means. Despite Trent's... whatever you want to call it, Ortega put up a hell of a fight. Doc was just the better man on this night."

{Doc stands tall in the ring as we fade to our next segment.}

{Tiffany takes the lead down the hall as the camera follows.}

Tiffany Jones: Well ladies and gentlemen, I am backstage on route to Bushido's locker room where I was told he has something juicy to say to Brad Kane. I can't wait to hear what the hell!?!

{The sexy interviewer is interrupted when she sees Bushido's belongings being flung out of his locker room. Miranda storms out after basically destroying all of Bushido's equipment.}

Miranda: YOU SPIT IN MY FACE! I'm so outta here.

{Miranda storms pass the camera, shoving Tiffany away, her hand crushing Tiffany's breast.}

MATCH
HEIRESS/HEIR TO THE THRONE
TAG TEAM MATCH
Mike Laszlo & Ayla St. James vs Isabella Maldini & Bernard de Montfort

----------------------------------------------------------

{We come back to the ringside and see that all four competitors are in the ring for the next match, the referee doing his final checks pre-match}

Vasco Dias: This match could have a huge effect on both the Heir and Heiress to the throne tournaments.

Trent Helms: Yeah, things are really heating up. Good thing I’m not in it because I’d already have it won.

{The two teams are in their respective corners deciding on who will go first, but Mike Laszlo ushers Ayla out of the ring ensuring that both he and Bernard de Montfort will start the match off. The two start to circle the ring and the ref calls for the bell. Laszlo shoots in right for a lock up and Bernard reacts with a straight punch to the face of Mike Laszlo who staggers backwards a little shocked by the full frontal attack from Bernard.}

Trent Helms: Well, that’s one way of gaining the upper hand I supposed.

Vasco Dias: Bernard is letting Laszlo know off the bat that he isn’t like any other opponent he’s fought.

{Bernard is on Mike in a split second and sends another shot his way taking Laszlo down to one knee, before driving an elbow into his shoulder. Laszlo struggles to react to the full force of Bernards attack and falls backwards onto the ropes grabbing them in vain before Ayla reaches over and tags herself in. She climbs into the ring and Bernard looks right into her eyes holding his hands in the air before he tags Isabella in and climbs back out of the ring, Mike Laszlo sending daggers his way all the time.}

Terri Morasco: Now it’s time for the Diamonds to shine.

Trent Helms: What you did there.....I saw it.

Vasco Dias: Saw what? What did she do?

{The two women lock up in the center of the ring and a slight power struggle begins before Ayla drops to one knee and being the veteran immediately takes advantage with a firemans carry into a sleeper hold. She then drops a swift elbow to the left shoulder of Isabella, deferring from the usual strategy of attacking the right side, before she runs to the ropes and bounces back with a nasty looking dropkick to the neck of Isabella.}

Terri Morasco: Ayla is going straight for that weekend shoulder of Isabellas

Trent Helm: Good strategy from the veteran, but....it wouldn’t work against me.

{Ayla quickly slides Isabella over and goes for a pin, the ref drops down.....one! …..two! No! Bernard de Montfort had climbed into the ring and pulled Ayla off by her leg and smirked down at her as she gave him daggers. The slight distraction gave Mike Laszlo a chance to take Bernard by surprise and nails a pretty nasty looking running lariat from the ring apron. He then makes a quick tag with Ayla, who kicks Isabella to the side. Laszlo grabs the ropes and uses his agility to slingshot himself over them and land a nice slingshot leg drop onto Bernard de Montfort.}

Trent Helms: Pfft...I could do that with my eyes closed!

Vasco Dias: Laszlo is showing the world that he won’t be stopped.

Terri Morasco: The Heir to the Throne is Laszlo’s chance at redemption, a chance to scratch off his losing streak.

{Laszlo goes for a quick cover, but Bernard kicks out before the ref even gets a one count out. LAszlo rolls through keeping his pace up as he drags Bernard to his feet and whips him off the ropes. On the rebound Laszlo leaps through the air with a huge picture perfect dropkick. Keeping the attack coming Laszlo hits the ropes himself and drops a nice senton splash on Bernard de Montfort. It seems like the energy and momentum are with Laszlo and Isabella notices this. She tries to charge Laszlo just as he is dragging Bernard back to his feet, but the referee spots this and gets between them pushing Isabella back to her corner, and Bernard takes the quick moment of distraction to aim a shot right into Mike Laszlo’s crown jewels followed by a snap DDT that leaves Laszlo on the floor in agony, both men laying there, and a twisted smirk on Isabella’s mouth.}

Terri Morasco: Oh, clever move there by Isabella

Vasco Dias: Abusing the referee’s attempts at keeping order.

{Bernard staggers to his feet just as Mike does and both of them hit the ropes and come back with a diving clothesline taking each other down. The official begins his mandatory ten count as both men are down and Isabella feints climbing into the ring, which Ayla St. James reacts to and the ref immediately moves to keep her out of the ring. Giving Isabella a chance to drag Bernard over to her corner, just as the ref turns they make a tag and whilst Ayla is busy getting back to her position Isabella nails a nasty spear into her side pushing Ayla off of the ring apron and into the security barrier at ring side. The crowd all make an audible “ooh” sound, and Laszlo looks deeply concerned. Isabella looks proud of herself and shouts at the referee to count her out.}

Trent Helms: That woman is devious! I like her!

{Laszlo slides out of the ring and makes sure that Ayla is okay enough to continue the match and help her towards the ring. Isabella shoots Bernard a look of “See I don’t need you” but Bernard just raises his eyebrows and leans on the turnbuckle. Laszlo helps Ayla to the edge of the ring and climbs back onto the stairs as she rolls into the ring}

Terri Morasco: What a display of courage after that nasty bump.

Vasco Dias: Seems the veteran has something to bring after all.

Trent Helms: Despite her.....assets!

{Mike reaches out a hand for a tag but Ayla nods to him saying “I’ve got this” she charges at Isabella and ducks under her wild clothesline attempt hitting the ropes and coming back with the Falling Star handstand frankensteiner taking Isabella down hard. Maldini scrambles to her feet just as Bernard seems to take a little stroll away from his corner to see what is going on. Bernard shifts his foot, and seemingly seems to trip Isabella up as she goes for the tag, but Bernard makes an overly dramatic attempt at shock as Ayla wastes no time locking in the “Put a ring on it!” submission hold, and after a few seconds Isabella taps wildly. Laszlo jumps into the ring and celebrates the win with Ayla whilst Bernard slips through the crowd as Isabella’s protector “The Watchman” sprints to the ring ensuring she is okay and proceeding to run after Bernard, before giving up as he is too far away.}

Tara: Get out.

Doc: Tara, I just-

Tara: I said get out! I've HAD it with you two and your arguing like a couple of schoolkids. If you can't act like a mature adult, maybe it's better if you just stay away and leave us alone.

{These words obviously sting Doc, who has presumably come to patch things up with his sister. He falls silent, and Jennie fills the gap.}

Jennie: Tara.. we're here to talk about Angel. There's something..

{Jennie takes a deep breath, obviously not wanting to say what she is about to say.}

Jennie: ..There's something you have to know.

Tara: What do you mean?

Jennie: Tara.. Angel - he..

Tara: What's wrong Jennie? What's happened?

{Jennie takes another deep breath and looks at Doc, who nods for her to continue.}

Jennie: Angel and I slept together Tara, about a year ago. I wanted to tell you, I swear, but-

{Tara looks blankly at the floor, shaking her head in disbelief. Silence fills the room for a minute as Tara struggles to come to terms with what her sister is telling her.}

Tara: I can't believe this. My own sister-

Doc: It's not her fault Tara. Jennie was drunk, at a party, and Angel took advantage of her. Jennie didn't want to, but he forced himself on her-

Tara: What the hell are you suggesting? Angel would never do something like that! How would you know this anyway - you mean you knew they slept together and didn't tell me?!

Doc: Jennie told me after it happened Tara, but I told her to keep it a secret from you because I wanted to try and keep this family together. But it's one of the reasons I've hated Angel this whole time.. you don't know what he's like Tara, not deep down. But we agreed that things have gone to far.. you have to leave this guy, for your own good.

{Tara slumps back in her seat, dropping her head in to the palms of her hands.}

Tara: Get out. Both of you.

{ We re-join Sacrifice as we see Xander Famularo marching confidently down a corridor, looking very pleased with himself when suddenly we hear the voice of Ryan Blade calling down after him. }

Ryan Blade: Hey! Giblet, slap on the brakes.

{ Xander rolls his eyes and waits for Blade to catch up with him as the pair stare at one another for a moment. }

Ryan Blade: We have a little unfinished business.

Xander Famularo: Really? And what might that be? That despite being gifted a win you managed to slip over a banana skin and mess it up?

{ This clearly antagonises Ryan who points a finger at Xander’s face before closing his eyes, taking a deep breath and calming himself. }

Ryan Blade: You know damn well that I was blind-sided by Jacobsen, that little cretin.

Xander Famularo: If you insist…

Ryan Blade: I just wanted to make sure that you weren’t expecting some kind of thank you for that little stunt you pulled, we both know I could have taken Xavier Cross, I certainly don’t need your help.

Xander Famuarlo: Sure thing sugar plum, is that everything?

{ Xander laughs to himself as he shakes his head and begins to walk away but as he does so, he sees a hand planted firmly on his arm and suddenly, the complexion completely changes and Xander slowly turns around to see Blade standing firm. }

Ryan Blade: What did you just call me?

Xander Famularo: Listen, pintsize, you are making a big mistake. Now, if you remove your hand from me right now we can forget this ever happened and we can carry on with our match this evening when I can beat you head in…legally.

Ryan Blade: …..

{ Suddenly Blade releases his grip as he backs away, his arms held aloft in the air. }

Xander Famularo: That’s what I thought…

{ Xander turns once again but as he does so Blade charges forward and strikes him from behind sending him clattering into a stack of film which scatters across the floor. Blade tosses his belt aside for a second as he continues the assault but he is soon tackled into a stack of chairs which also crash across the floor as official stream down the corridor from multiple angles followed by the CEO of IWF, Simon de Montfort. Finally they pull the two men apart as Simon stands between them, clearly displeased. }

Simon de Montfort: What do you two think you’re playing at!?

Ryan Blade: He disrespected me!

Xander Famularo: This little insect attacked me from behind!

Ryan Blade: You deserved it!

Xander Famularo: Finally saying it to my face, huh!?

Simon de Montfort: Enough! The both of you! I won’t stand for this sort of behaviour; the pair of you were booked to fight one another, why couldn’t you wait all of 30 minutes to beat one another senseless? Well, for your impatience, neither of you gets to lay a single finger on one another, do you hear me? The match is off!

Xander/Ryan: What!?

Simon de Montfort: If the pair of you want to argue over who’s got the bigger dick, be my guest, but you’re not going to get paid by me to do it. Next week, Xander, I expect you to rise above this, I am going to place you in a number one contender’s match for Xavier Cross’ title and you can prove to everyone your real talent. Blade? Next week I want to see more of what made you the Man of Steel in the first place, now both of you, go back to your hotels!

Ryan Blade: See what you’ve done, now I won’t get paid!

Xander Famularo: Just be grateful Simon saved you from a beat down.

{ Xander shrugs off the officials as he shakes his head and walks off whilst Blade immediately takes off after Simon as Sacrifice cuts to a commercial break. }

SINGLES MATCH
Xavier Cross vs Andrew Jacobsen

----------------------------------------------------------

{The lights dim, as the echo of a bird of prey screeching rips through the arena, a large explosion of orange/red/gold pyro erupts across the front of the stage. As it dies down we see the back of Xavier Cross, facing towards the curtain. This is when ‘The Phoenix’ by Fall Out Boy begins to play off the P.A.}

{The fans are on their feet, chanting.}

“Xavier Cross! Xavier Cross! Xavier Cross!”

{Cross turns around, doing the Atlanta Falcon ‘Dirty Bird’ wing flap, as he makes his way to the ring. He’ll stop and find the first child he sees, pulling a pen out of his boot, immediately signing something for the kid. Before moving over to the other side of the ramp giving fans a series of hi-fives.}

Alison Valance: "Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, coming to you from Lexington, Virginia....He stands at Six Feet...three inches, weighing in at Two-Hundred, and Thirty One pounds. Xavier....THE PHOENIX....CROOOOOSSSS!"

{Cross stares at the ring for a second before marching up the steps, looking around he doesn’t enter through the apron but climbs the outside of the turnbuckle, standing tall as he looks around the arena a grin on his face. He slaps his chest three times before hopping into the ring. He kisses his middle and index finger, pointing them to the sky, before looking down, crossing each wrist to make an X, he slowly raises his arms up. Each post shoots a pyro cannon perpendicular to each other, creating a flaming X for a moment.}

{Xavier moves to the corner, pulling himself on top of the turnbuckle, adjusting the tape on his wrists, waiting for the bell to ring and the match to begin.}

Alision Valance: “and his opponent, hailing from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The North Star....ANDREW JACOBBBBSEEEEN”

{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. 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 behind him. Jacobsen walks down the ramp, high-fiving fans as he walks, and pulls himself up onto the apron. He climbs through the second rope and walks to a corner, checking his gloves as he waits for the match to start.}

{The ref calls for the bell, Jacobsen and Cross stare down for a moment, before locking up in the middle of the ring. Jacobsen gets the advantage, as he ducks underneath Cross’s grasp, catching Xavier’s hand, wrenching it behind. Cross slaps his shoulder, before ducking underneath, reversing it wrenching Andrew’s arm. Jacobsen moves backwards forcing Cross into the corner before breaking the hold, and throwing an elbow to the side of Xavier’s head. Cross ducks, as Jacobsen spins around to face him with the momentum swing. Cross charges forward in a double leg takedown, pouncing of Jacobsen before reigning down elbow strikes to The North Star’s face}

Vasco Dias: “Great technical wrestling from these two to start it off, reversals, basic submissions, and strikes. They know each other well at this point!”

Trent Helms: “This marks the third time in IWF that these two have met, in less than a month’s time. Both have a chip on their shoulder, and could use the momentum of a win in their favor.”

Vasco Dias: “Xavier is trying to keep his momentum high, with only one loss, and one draw in his IWF career. He is the IWF World Heavyweight Champion. Now he’s squaring off with the man who took the NCW title from Xander, a man who has his sights set on Xavier. This match means more to these men then just a win or loss.”

{Jacobsen is able to block most of Cross’s strikes, before catching Xaviers arm, and reversing it into an arm bar, Jacobsen is wrenching the arm of Xavier Cross, trying to force an early tap out from the Heavyweight Champion, but Xavier is resiliant enough, wiggling himself up. Xavier shows his strength as he almost ignores the pain in his arm to stand back to his feet, forcing Jacobsen to alter the hold. But Xavier uses his strenght lifting Jacobsen off the mat, slamming him downwards. Jacobsen is laid out on the mat, as Cross staggers back into the ropes holding his arm.}

Vasco Dias: “Cross showing impressive strength, and endurance taking the arm bar, and then countering it that way.”

Trent Helms: “I don’t think I’ve ever seen Xavier like this, it’s definitely new blood boiling in him since his NCW days.”

{Jacobsen picks himself back up, as Cross steps forward, Jacobsen snaps a Lights Out! Superkick out of no where, Cross manages to sidestep grabbing the leg, tucking his shoulder and rolling on the mat, managing to lock in the Cross Word Puzzle! Cross wrenches the leg back, but Jacobsen manages to reach out to grab the rope forcing Xavier to break the hold. Cross steps out, looking down at Jacobsen realizing he needs to weaken the leg to stop the Lights Out! from coming out of nowhere, knowing that it’s a game changer. Jacobsen pulls himself up with the ropes as the two men square off once again.}

Trent Helms: “There is no quit in these two men, each one has an answer to the other. This is quite the even match up.”

Viasco Dias: “Cross keeps pulling offense, but Jacobsen seems to be ready for anything. The two have each other scouted very well.”

{Jacobsen manages to catch Cross offguard, with a quick clothesline. Xavier pops back up, but Jacobsen hits a snap drop kick, planting his feet into the chest of Xavier Cross, sending him backwards into the corner. Jacobsen charges forward, but Cross side steps, as Jacobsen eats nothing but turnbuckle. Cross catches Jacobsen with a European Uppercut, that staggers the North Star, but as he stumbles around, he sends a hard right towards Xavier’s face, catching the Heavyweight Champ off guard, staggering him backwards. The two men start exchanging strikes, neither one defending, a pure offensive show.}

Viasco Dias: This has just turned into a slobber knocker between these two competitors.

Trent Helms: Neither men wants to give an inch, they’re gonna try to knock each other out right here!

{Jacobsen manages to string together a combo, hitting Xavier with a right, left, uppercut, and then a swift kick to the calf muscle, Xavier staggers back, but doesn’t have time to throw any kind of defense as Jacobsen charges forward with a high knee, catching Xavier below the chin. Cross falls backwards, as Jacobsen pounces quickly, locking in his Sharpshooter, submission. Cross struggles, slamming his fists onto the mat, fighting it. Jacobsen is wrenching backwards as Xavier lets out a loud scream of pain as he tries to fight through it. Cross put his head down on the mat, trying to arch out, and roll. Jacobsen steps forward keeping everything locked in. Cross drops his head into the mat, allowing Jacobsen a larger berth to wrench backwards. Cross groans, reaching out for the ropes, unable to grab them. He picks himself and Jacobsen off the mat with a push up, his eyes closed, fighting against the odds. The fans are on their feet cheering him on.}

Trent Helms: “Will Xavier Cross tap?! This would be a huge message to send to Ryan Blade from Andrew Jacobsen, making the Heavyheight Champion tap.”

Viasco Dias: “The roof is coming off this sold out arena, Xavier Cross is being willed on by these fans!”

{ Cross is holding himself up, his screams of pain have turned into shouts of warrior. Cross ducks his head down, finally able to roll out of the hold, but the sudden motion catches Jacobsen off guard, who doesn’t let go of the lock. This allows Xavier to slip his leg around, and wrench backwards, having reversed the Sharp Shooter into the Cross Word Puzzle! Xavier is wrenching Jacobsen’s leg in the center of the ring. Cross has a look of fury on his face, as he pulls back on the leg. Jacobsen slams against the mat, fighting hard and struggling he finally slips free, but he soon wishes that he had done no such thing as he walks into a Crossifixion! 1.....2.....3! }


Trent Helms: “Xavier does it! Jacobsen tried his best to escape that hold but Cross was just too ruthless."

Terri Morasco: He takes momentum with him into his match at the PPV, he will be very tough to defeat!

Despite the urge to call it in, Spike picks it up being as it has “Spike” written on it. He brings the parcel into the room and rips it open revealing a DVD.}

Spike Kane: The hell!?

Christian Gardner: Yeah, River came over, She wanted to see you or Mike. I told her neither of you were around, so she walked away.

{The footage of Alysson talking to her brother about River Maddisons attempt at “kidnapping” her biological son Xander.}

Christian Gardner: All right, all right. She wanted to get Xander. She wanted to pick him up, said she had to take her son, but Linda told her to piss off.

HEIRESS/HEIR TO THE THRONE
TAG TEAM MATCH
Tifa Heafy & Deathtrain vs Kat Conway and Cable Arcane

----------------------------------------------------------

Vasco Dias: Here we go ladies and gentlemen another special treat for you tonight as two men and two women from the respective Heir to the Throne Tournament team up in a intergender tag team match.

Terri Morasco: A little mis matched in my opinion as Tifa and Cable would seem to make a much better team than Tifa and Deathtrain but interesting none the less.

Trent Helms: Honestly I'm just glad to see one of the men from the Trent Helms Memorial Wrestling Division making it so far in this tournament, once again proving it takes more than brute strength and ash to make a star.

Vasco Dias: While I can't take much away from Cable Arcane I would like to point out he is no where near first place.

Trent Helms: I think that's going to change tonight.

Vasco Dias: Not if Deathtrain has anything to say about it.

Terri Morasco: Why are you both counting out Tifa and Kat? Tifa has been on fire since day one and Kat is a ring veteran if not general. The women have just as much story in this match as the men and possibly a lot more on the line.

{ People get on their feet when they hear the beginning of "Danger! High Voltage" by Electric Six starts to blare through the P.A. system. From the back running comes Tifa Heafy with a giant smile on her face. The crowd cheers for the rookie as she begins to walk to the ring slapping all the hands that are in front of her. When at ringside Tifa sprints into the ring and pops up to her feet before going to the turnbuckles to pose for the fans. Flashbulbs go off as Tifa hops down and waves to the fan, the music fading off. }

{A huge explosion of pyro erupts as "Nightmare" by Avenged Sevenfold blasts from the pa. Deathtrain makes his way out from behind the curtain. He stops at the top of the ramp and stares around at the crowd. He sneers as begins to make his way down the ramp. Deathtrain climbs the steel steps and stops again to look around. He climbs over the top rope to enter the ring and climbs up on the turnbuckle.}

Terri Morasco: Tifa looks a little un sure of her partner, as I pointed out earlier the teams are a little mis matched in my opnion.

Trent Helms: Gotta wonder if that was by design?

Terri Morasco: I guess it really doesn't matter as here comes the other tag team.

{ The lights in the arena start to twinkle like diamonds, green, purple and red with the melodic holler and drum beat of ''Black and Silver" by Xandria. The chords of an organ punctuate the words as Kathleen Conway appears on the stage with one hand on her right hip and her husband, The Ace by her side. She begins her walk down the ramp, alongside her huband, Kathy has a smile on her face. At the foot of the ramp the couple share a kiss before Kathy gets to the ring and climbs on to the apron with her back to the ropes, she drops to one knee. She holds onto the ropes behind her as she flips her hair to the side and winks at The Ace before standing up and climbing through the middle rope into the ring. She walks to the middle and flips her hair again with a hand on her hip as the lights return to normal and the music fades. }

... is there any good left in ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

{ Good Man by Devour the Day hits the PA as the lights in the arena begin to strobe red along with the beat of the music. Cable Arcane steps out onto the ramp, his face hidden by the hood of his jacket as the music kicks into gear. Arcane makes his way down the ramp to the beat of the music and rolls in under the bottom rope. He stands up in the middle of the ring as the singer begins to belt the lyrics and throws both his arms out to the side in sort of Jesus pose. The music dies down as he throws his hood back and waits for the match to start. }

Trent Helms: The fans are really starting to get behind Cable Arcane.

Vasco Dias: The kid isn't a giant, wrestles a style that's currently very popular among the masses and even I can admit he isn't bad to look at so of course the people are starting to love him.

Trent Helms: Did you just call him hot?

Vasco Dias: What? No.

Trent Helms: Dude, you've totally got a hard on for Cable. Don't worry, so don't most of the confused men in the crowd.

Terri Morasco: *Chuckling*

{ The bell sounds and it looks like the women are going to start us off as Kat dares Tifa to lock up in the center of the ring. Tifa reaches up and Kat drills her with a stiff kick and a side head lock take down. Kat locks her right into a rear choke but Tifa fights her way back to her feet and breaks her self free. She runs for the ropes and rebounds but Kat spins with a double back fist and levels her. Kat rips Tif up by the hair and kicks her right in the gut before sending her into the corner. Kat runs in with a big clothes line and then hoists Tifa onto the top rope. Kat climbs up onto the second rope, hooks her arms and rips Tifa off the top rope with a snap suplex. Kat quickly covers. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! Kat gets right to her feet and drops a hard heel across the chest of Tifa before placing her boot on the throat of Tifa and getting a steady four count before releasing. }

Terri Morasco: Conway is out for blood tonight.

Trent Helms: There's a lot of points on the line and only room for one at the top.

{ Conway scopes Tifa off the mat and holds her up over her head for high angle slam and drops her hard on her back. Kat almost laughs as she backs into the ropes, bounces off and just drops a leg across the throat of Tifa. Kat gets to her feet and looks over to Deathtrain who is demanding a tag from Tifa. Kat almost laughs as she backs into the ropes again. Tifa is barely up when Kat comes back with a FAMEACER! She quickly gets up and locks Tifa into the FOUR LEAF CLOVER!!! }

Vasco Dias: Tifa has no where to go!

Terri Morasco: This match can't seriously be over already.

{ Deathtrain storms in now but the ref stops him from touching either women as Kat gets off of Tifa, grabs her by the hair and begins to slam her face into the mat over and over and over again. Kat struts over to her corner and reaches for her police baton but Cable kicks it off the apron. Kat glares daggers at Cable who shakes his head at her and says not this way. By this time the ref has forced Deathtrain out of the ring and Tif has stumbled to her feet. Kat runs over to Tifa who catches her off guard with an inside cradle! Kat quickly kicks out at one but Tifa is up before her and catches her with a spinning heel kick with staggers Kat. Tifa hits the ropes and comes back with a running drop kick to the midsection of Kat! Tifa kips up, grabs Kat and pulls her up into a PILE DRIVER!!!! The fans go crazy as Tifa just covers Kat while the ref hollers about the move. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! }

Vasco Dias: Tifa Heafy showing some resiliance here.

Terri Morasco: She took a pretty good beating in the opening moments of the match but she's fighting back.

{ Tifa looks to her corner but Kat starts to get up. Tifa hits the ropes and comes back with a running head butt to the midsection of Kat. Tifa stands up and just nails a picture perfect hurricanrana! Kat tries to roll through it and get back to her feet but Tifa is right behind her and pushes her into the ropes, Kat holds and throws Tifa back and back rolls across the mat and to her feet as Kat turns and catches a flying forearm to the face. Kat stumbles back into the ropes and Tifa hits a step up enfugiri that sends Kat flipping over the ropes and to the outside. Tifa looks pumped as she runs for the opposing ropes, hits and comes back looking for a suicide dive on Kat and flies through the ropes but Kat moves and Tifa crashes right into the ring barrier. Kat rolls back into the ring and stumbles across the ring and tags in Cable. Deathtrain becomes the legal man by default. }

Trent Helms: Now we've got some real wrestlers in there.

Terri Morasco: Excuse me?

Trent Helms: You know what I mean.

Terri Morasco: Nope, explain.

{ Deathtrain flies across the ring and Cable ducks the clothes line. DT whips around and Cable connects with several rights and lefts and throws in a few side kicks for good measure before DT grabs Cable by the throat with his right hand and just plows into him with a clothes line. Cable is quick to his feet and DT hits a hard toe kick, pulls Cable in for the pump handle but Cable flipes out of it and as DT turns he catches a jaw breaker for his trouble. Cable is up, hits the ropes and DT catches him with a side walk slam! Both men get back to their feet and DT hits a big right hand and then grabs Cable for the DARK CLOUD! DT covers. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! }

Vasco Dias: Deathtrain is looking to over power Cable this week.

Trent Helms: He couldn't last week so good luck.

{ Deathtrain rips Cable off the mat and sends him hard into the corner. DT storms across the ring with a big clothes line in the corner then grips Cable with both hands around the throat and sends him flying out of the corner with the CRUCIFIX! Cable skids across the mat as DT stomps over and looks for another pin fall attempt. He covers. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! DT looks frustrated as he peels Cable off the mat and whips him hard into the ropes, Cable spills over the ropes and onto the apron. DT reaches for Cable but Cable drives a hard shoulder into the mid section of DT. Cable uses the ropes to propel himself up and shin kicks DT across the side of the hea.d DT stumbles and Cable uses the ropes again to catapul himself to the top rope and jumps off grabbing DT with the DEAD BUT RISING BACK STABBER!!! Cable covers. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! }

Trent Helms: Here we go, now things are turning in my mans favor.

Terri Morasco: We'll see about that.

{ DT gets to his feet but Cable comes off the ropes with the NO FATE Running bull dog. Cable is right up, he's pumped, the crowd is getting behind him now as DT starts to get to his feet. Cable looks around and calls his next move. He's going for the Blackened Sun Kick. DT stands and Cable goes for it but DT catches Cable's leg and just drills him in the jaw with a nasty BIG BOOT!!!! Cable rolls across the ring and quickly tags in Kat Conway. DT shakes his head as he turns and Tags in Tifa Heafy. }

Vasco Dias: Looks like Deathtrain really rattled Cable with that kick.

Trent Helms: You've gotta remember, Cable is a tag team specialist mostly, he knows when to get the hell out of the ring.

{ Kat lunges right for Tifa who side steps it and connects with a heel kick. Tifa quickly tries to capitalise with a running bull dog. Tifa is right up, grabs the ropes and srping boards off with a leg drop on Kat Conway and rolls her over for a cover. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! Kat powers back to her feet and catches a right hand from Tifa and pulls her in for a big time shoulder block before sending her into the corner. Kat stomps a hole in the abdomen of Tifa as she slumps down onto the mat. Kat rips her up by her hair and tosses Tifa by the hair across the ring. As Tifa tries to get up, Kat connects with a running knee lift. Kat pulls her up and sends her into the ropes, she looks for a back body drop but Tifa sun set flips and pulls Kat in for the cover. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! }

Terri Morasco: A quick counter by Tifa Heafy!

{ Both women are to their feet and Kat goes to lock up up but Tifa spins with a back fist that catches Kat off gurd and pulls her down for a reverse ddt! Tifa is pumped now and heads to the ropes. She climbs up and leaps off with a frog splash that connects. ONE! TWO! KICK OUT! Kat powers out of it just barely and slowly gets to her feet. Tifa runs at her with another drop kick but Kat swipes her away and drops a quick elbow on the chest of Tifa Heafy. Kat gets up and Tifa does too. Tifa swings but Kat spins hier around into a surprise Full Nelson Slam! Kat pulls her up to her feet and grins wide. }

Trent Helms: Could be looking at the end of the match right here.

Vasco Dias: Both these women have been going all out so far.

Terri Morasco: But right now Kat is in full control.

KAT CONWAY AND CABLE ARCANE WIN

{ Kat pulls Tifa in for the KAT NAP! Covers. DT BREAKS IT UP AT TWO! The ref backs DT off of Kat who looks pissed. She storms over to her corner and tags in Cable who hops over the ropes. The ref sees Cable is in and lets DT go. DT storms at Cable, Arcane ducks a big clothes line attempt and turns right into a step enzugiri! Cable follows with the Blackened Sun Kick and DT stumbles and Kat comes in from behind with a shoulder block to the back of DT's knees! Cable hits the ropes, climbs up and leaps off with the DIVINTY OF PURPOSE 450 SPLASH! CABLE COVERS! ONE! TWO! THREE!!! }

Terri Morasco: Cable got the pin for his team after some last minute team work!

Vasco Dias: Great match put on by all four but in there end you can only have one winner and we found them.

Trent Helms: Them?

Vasco Dias: Well only one team can win.

Trent Helms: Ah.

{ Kat and Cable have their arms raised all though she still doesn't look very happy that Cable kept her from using her weapon of choice earlier in the match. }

MATCH
RUBY CHAMPIONSHIP #1 CONTENDERS MATCH
Alexis Morrison & Portia Roberts vs Ashley Mastrangelo & Amber Richards

----------------------------------------------------------

{All Eyes On Me" by Voice Of Destiny plays over the sound system as the light scopes sync to the beat of the bass. Alexis emerges from the back wearing her usual attire and walks down to the ring with a smirk slowly forming, she slides her hand through her locks and climbs up onto the apron and enters the IWF ring, where she goes to the far corner and props herself against it.}

Alison Valance: "Introducing first... From Santa Monica, California.... Alexis Morrison!"

“Don't try to take this from me....
Don't try to take this from me..

Now-ow-ow-o-o-o-ooowww!”

{The intro of Paramore's “Now” kicks up as the lights fall low and Portia steps out from behind the curtain, with her pink and black boxer's robe covering her face, she bounces a few times on the ramp, before flipping the hood down and making her way down the ramp.}

Alison Valance: "And her partner... From Baltimore, Maryland.... Portia Roberts!"

{She stops at the bottom of the ramp, and motion to the crowd to make more noise, she doe a quick lap around the ring, slapping hands with the fans before sliding into the ring, she drops to one knee with her head bowed, to say a quick prayer, before slamming her fists into the mat and hopping back onto her feet as she lets out a huge scream to amp herself up for the match.}

Terri Morasca: "This team were losers in last week's triple threat match. Can they reverse their fortunes here tonight?"

Vasco Dias: "They're going to have to if they want that Ruby Championship."

{The opener of “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey plays throughout the arena causing fans to stand to their feet and cheer. As the song begins with “Just a small town girl…” Ashley walks out to the stage and the crowd gives her a warm reaction. She scours the crowd from left to right with her hand over her eyes like the brim of a hat. As the song continues, and the crowd begins singing along with the popular hit, she’s announced to the crowd.}

Alison Valance: "And the opponents... From Cleveland, Ohio... Ashley Mastrangelo!"

{As the crowd continues to sing-along Ashley makes her way to the ring, and up the steps. She jumps onto the near turnbuckle and poses for the crowd who give her another great reaction. She then jumps down and does a quick hair setting with her hands as she waits for the match to begin.}

{"Bones" slowly fades in, the lyrics rolling out. As the song explodes after the first verse Amber makes her way out, her black hair flowing down as she throws her head back and lets out a laugh.}

Alison Valance: "And her partner... From Norwich, England.... Amber Richards!"

{Amber makes her way down to the ring and she runs and slides on her knee across the apron before resting her body against the ropes as the music fades out.}

{The match begins with Amber Richards and Alexis Morrison starting it out for their respective teams. Both women glare at each other, trying to get into the others' mind before moving toward the center of the ring. Alexis lunges forward to grab Amber, but the speedy Diamond avoids it and hits rapid-fire kicks to the shine as Alexis turns back around. She connects with a stiff elbow that backs Morrison up before she shoots her off the ropes and jumps, hitting a Calf Kick as Alexis rebounds. Alexis is up quickly and Amber hits another Calf Kick, and as she gets up quickly again, Amber grabs her by the hair and sends the opponent down with a Hair Whip. Amber picks Alexis up from the mat and delivers a Snap Suplex.}

Terri Morasca: "Amber Richards is looking good right from the start."

{Richards mounts Morrison and looks to rain down with punches, but Morrison reverses positions and grabs Amber's head and begins to slam it down into the mat. She breaks the attack and pulls Richards to her feet, but Amber rocks her with a Headbutt. Richards hooks Morrison up for a Neckbreaker, but Alexis is able to pull free and drop Richards with a Falling Reverse DDT. She picks Amber up and sends her into the ropes, looking for the Tilt-A-Whirl Backreaker, but Amber is able to turn it into a Headscissor Takedown.}

Trent Helms: "Not bad. I've seen better though. It's all there on my 'Best Of' DVD..."

{Alexis scrambles to the corner and tags in Portia Roberts, who quickly hits a Backhand Chop. Richards responds by firing back with a Knife Edge Chop, and Portia fires back with another Backhand. The two exchange chops, but Portia ultimately gets the better of it by spinning and hitting a Roaring Elbow. Amber falls back into the ropes and stumbles forward, where Roberts drops her with a Samoan Drop. Roberts grabs Richards by the legs and looks for a Cloverleaf, but Amber pushes her away and gets to her feet. Portia charges Richards, but Richards sidesteps it and hits a Dropsault that sends Portia back into the turnbuckles.}

Vasco Dias: "We've got the best women's wrestlers on the planet in Imperial, and these four are looking to prove it."

Terri Morasca: "It's all about getting that Ruby Championship."

{With Portia in their corner, Amber tags in Ashley before holding Portia in place for Ashley to fly in with a Running High Knee. She holds Roberts up and turns out of the corner, delivering a Russian Leg Sweep, floating over into the pin. 1.... 2. Roberts kicks out. Mastrangelo tries to get Portia to her feet, and the Maryland native responds with a knee to the stomach, before grabbing her head and lifting up, dropping Ashley with a Sitout Front Suplex. She hooks Ashley's legs and pulls back her arms from the mat... and stomps down on her back with the Black Jesus Stomp. Portia rolls Ashley over on her back and goes for the pinfall. 1... 2.. kick out.}

Vasco Dias: "That stomp was vicious. Mastrangelo is showing a lot of heart by kicking out."

{Portia peels Mastrangelo off of the mat and tags in Alexis before sending Ashley into the ropes and nailing a Scoop Powerslam. Morrison climbs to the top rope and flies off, hitting a Double Leg Drop across the sternum of the downed Mastrangelo. Alexis takes her time lifting Ashley to a vertical base before pulling her into Powerbomb position. She lifts Ashley into the air, but Ashley surprises her by turning it into a Hurricanrana. Alexis is up quickly, but Ashley is again quick to strike, this time hitting a Chick Kick out ot nowhere. Ashley drops down for the pin. 1.... 2.. Morrison kicks out!}

Terri Morasca: "She didn't waste any time going for the pin, and it still wasn't enough."

Trent Helms: "I say kick her again. You kick anyone enough times, and they'll stay down."

{Ashley helps Morrison to her feet and hooks her up the head, looking to hit a Running Bulldog. Morrison plants her feet and throws Ashley off, before running the ropes and catching Mastrangelo with a vicious 20 Eyes Kick as she gets to her feet! Morrison looks down before turning and smirking. Alexis drags Mastrangelo up off of the mat and pulls her into position for Violent Disregard. As she lifts Ashley up, the fiesty Diamond slips free and lands on her feet, on the ring apron. Alexis turns around and Mastrangelo jumps to the top rope, springboarding off and hitting the Girl's Best Friend Clothesline!}

Vasco Dias: "Big springboard clothesline by Mastrangelo. Now it looks like she's going for the tag."

Trent Helms: "It looks like it's time for some hot tag action!"

{Mastrangelo makes the tag to Amber Richards, who goes into the ring and catches Morrison with a Running Jumping Knee Lift as she gets to her feet. This sends Alexis falling back into the ropes, allowing Amber to send her off with an Irish Whip. Alexis rebounds and goes for a Clothesline on Richards, who expectedly catches her arm and pulls her into Eat Defeat. Alexis falls back to the mat and rolls to her corner, making the tag to Portia Roberts. She climbs into the ring and immediately Spears Richards, nearly taking her out of her boots. She hooks the leg. 1.... 2... kick out!}

Trent Helms: "After seeing that Spear, I think the Jets should sign her. Can't be any worse than what they've got now."

Terri Morasca: "And it nearly earned her team the win. Just one more power move and this match could be history."

{Portia rips Richards up from the mat and powers her up for the Hit Stick. Amber fights her way out of the move with counter punches and drops to her feet. She goes for the big Superkick, but Roberts catches her leg and spins her around, jumping and hitting the Coronation! Portia waits as Amber gets to her knees, before stepping forward and going for the B.F.K.!... Richards rolls out of the way and makes the tag to Ashley Mastrangelo, who jumps from the top and hits the Springboard Hurricanrana she calls 'The Assassination!'.. and she reaches back to hook the leg for a pin! 1.... 2... Alexis runs in to break up the pin!}

Vasco Dias: "She just saved the match for her team right there! It was about to be curtains for Portia Roberts!"

Trent Helms: "Sure she saved it, but for how long?"

{Alexis ignores the referee's orders to exit the ring and stands back in the corner, taunting and licking her hands as she waits on Ashley Mastrangelo. She runs forward for Mark of Death, but Amber Richards comes out of nowhere to tackle her out of the ring! Portia Roberts gets to her feet and is grabbed from behind by Ashley Mastrangelo, who flips... and hits the Rejection! Mastrangelo rolls Roberts over and goes for the pinfall. 1.... 2.... 3!}

Alison Valance: "Here are your winners by pinfall.... AMBER RICHARDS AND ASHLEY MASTRANGELO!"

{Ashley gets up off of the pin and has her arm raised by the referee, as Amber rolls back into the ring.}

Terri Morasca: "They did it again! These two women are one step closer to being Ruby Champion."

Vasco Dias: "But next time they won't be teaming up... they'll be facing each other."

Trent Helms: "I can smell the plot thickening."

MAIN EVENT
HEIRESS TO THE THRONE
TAG TEAM MATCH
Jessica Reed & Miguel Muchacho vs Emma Danielson & Ryan Shane

----------------------------------------------------------

Alison Valace: The following match is set for one fall and is an Heir and Heiress to the Throne Tag Team Match. Introducing first from Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, Emma Danielson!!!

{"Fight" plays over the PA as Emma Danielson saunters out onto the ramp to a positive reaction from the crowd. She smirks, nodding to the crowd as she saunters towards the ring. As she reaches the foot of the ramp, Emma speeds up, jumping and sliding beneath the bottom rope. She rolls to her feet, walking over to the corner, and leans back, closing her eyes and letting the crowd cheer as she waits for the match to begin.}

Alison Valace: And her partner, hailing from Allen Park, Michigan, Ryan Shane!!!

{"Victim" by Eighteen Visions begins to play throughout the arena. The entrance ramp is dimly lit as the figure of Ryan Shane makes his way out from behind the curtain. Pyro goes off as Shane makes his way to the ring as the fans erupt in a chorus of boos. As he gets to the ring he hops onto the apron and enters.}

Terri Morasco: That’s an impressive team in the ring right now.

Vasco Dias: I like their chances myself.

Alison Valace: And their opponents, first she’s from Albany, New York, here is Jessica Reed!!!

{"Die Young" by Ke$ha, begins to pump out of the PA System as the crowd cheers for Jessica who appears from behind the curtain, waving with both hands at the audience in her sports bra and gym shorts. She starts to make her way excitedly down the ramp, slapping the hands of the fans as she goes before reaching the ring steps. She climbs up them and then subsequently climbs the turnbuckle where she proceeds to pump the crowd up before hopping down into the ring where she eyes up her opponents, ready for the match to begin.}

Alison Valace: And finally, from Orlando, Florida, please welcome, Mike Machado!!!

{The opening guitar riffs to “Mustache Man” by Cake blare over the PA system, leading into an explosion of pyrotechnics. The masked Miguel Muchado runs out and waves his finger in the air before running backstage and returning once some generic Mexican music begins to play. Muchado charges towards the ring and demands the mic from Alison Valace.}

Miguel Muchado: Mi Nombre Es Miguel Muchado!!!

{The fans laugh and cheer as Muchado hands the mic back to Alison and then begins to do his pre-match stretches, including cherry pickers and windmills.}

Vasco Dias: Who is this guy trying to fool?

Terri Morasco: I don’t think he’s fooling anyone, but it’s certainly entertaining.

Trent Helms: What are you all talking about? I had a hand in training this young Mexican newcomer and he’s going to go far!

{Emma Danielson and Ryan Shane appear to be on the same page as Emma says something to Ryan and he nods and steps out onto the ring apron. In the other corner, Jessica and Miguel have resorted to a friendly game of Rock, Paper, Scissors but Jessica throws up the Spock symbol to trump Muchado’s rock.}

Terri Morasco: It looks like the ladies will be kicking things off and Emma Danielson desperately needs some points in the Heiress to the Throne tournament.

Vasco Dias: The men are dead even in points but really they’re just fighting for second place as long as Lex Sense is breathing.

{The bell sounds and Reed and Danielson move to the center of the ring. They lock up and Emma immediately shoves Jessica down, but Jess just pops back up with a smile and goes for it again and yet again Emma imposes her will and shoves her down. Once again Jessica is back to her feet and looks to go for the tie up a third time but feints and sends a series of rapid fire kicks into the muscular thigh of Emma Danielson. Danielson tries to catch the kicks and Jessica jumps into the air and nails a spinning high kick that levels Emma. The fans cheer loudly as Jessica raises her arms into the air taking in their approval.}

Vasco Dias: Very impressive display of kicks from Jessica Reed.

Trent Helms: Feet of Fury!

{ Before Emma Danielson can even attempt to stand Jessica drops an elbow to her stomach. Jessica then goes to the top rope, again looking for the approval of the fans who cheer the possibility of a high risk move. Before Jessica can leap of however, Ryan Shane drops to the floor and pulls Emma Danielson out of the ring and out of harms way. Jessica jumps down and bounces off the ropes opposite of where Shane and Danielson are and on the rebound she nails a beautiful suicide dive taking out both Ryan and Emma. All three of them crumple to the floor in a heap.}

Terrie Morasco: High risk equals high reward, but Jessica Reed may have hurt herself on that one.

Vasco Dias: Highly stupid on her part.

{The referee begins to count both legal competitors out but Shane is able to get to his feet and rolls Emma back into the ring while Miguel jumps down and runs over to Jessica and helps her back into the ring. The ref admonishes both men for getting involved and they return to the aprons of their respective corners. Emma crawls towards her corner but Jessica grabs her foot to try to pull her back but Danielson uses her powerful legs to kick Jessica off sending her flipping backwards. Emma stands and waits for Jessica to get back to her feet and as soon as she does Danielson hits a Thesz Press and begins firing shots to the face of Reed. Somehow Jessica rolls out of the position and kicks Emma towards the corner where she reaches out and tags Ryan Shane which forces Miguel Muchado to come into the match. As soon as Muchado enters the ring Shane charges forward with a vicious Lariat that almost takes his head off. Ryan stomps him a few times and then makes the pin but Miguel kicks out right way.}

Vasco Dias: No denying the heart that Mike Machado has, it’s hard to keep him down but that was a nasty Lariat by Shane.

Trent Helms: What are you talking about? Mike Machdo hasn’t been seen in weeks.

Vasco Dias: Whatever.

{Shane grabs Miguel by the mask to use it to pull him to his feet and it starts to slip off and he begins flailing his arms frantically to pull it back down before his face is revealed and he clocks Ryan with a perfectly placed yet completely accidental elbow to the temple and Shane drops like a rock. Muchado readjusts the mask and looks down at his prone opponent completely oblivious to the fact that he caused it. Miguel shrugs his shoulders and makes the cover. 1…2…NO! Emma Danielson runs in and makes the save which brings Jessica Reed out of her corner. Jessica runs forward and uses the back of her partner who is on all fours as a springboard and leaps at Emma who catches her in midair and tries to dump her over the top rope but the momentum takes both women to the floor.}

Terri Morasco: This one is break down quickly, that was bad fall by the two Diamond’s.

{Ryan Shane slowly begins to stir as Miguel gets to his feet. Shane grabs the waistband of Mucahdo’s tights and tries to pull himself up. Shane fires a shot into the gut of the Luchador and Muchado kicks him away weakly. Muchado grabs Shane and puts him in position for a Power Bomb. He hoists Ryan up into the air but Shane begins to punch him and once again grabs the mask and twists it until it is completely covering Muchado’s eyes. Muchado starts to lose his balance and Shane falls on him. Shane gets up and brings Muchado to his feet. Muchado starts swinging wildly, unable to see and Shane taunts him. Ryan swats the punches away and grabs Miguel by the head, possibly looking for a Swinging Neckbreaker but out of desperation Muchado reverses it into THE MIGHT OF MEDIOCRITY! The referee drops into position and counts 1…2…3!!!}

Vasco Dias: I’ll be damned.

Terri Morasco: Unbelievable!

Trent Helms: He stole Mike Machado’s finisher!

Terri Morasco: It is Mike Machado, and he and Jessica Reed have just picked up 10 points each while Ryan Shane and Emma Danielson have unfortunately lost 5 points.

{As everyone else involved in the match make their way backstage Miguel Muchado is still in the ring struggling with the mask that’s still covering his eyes. Suddenly “Man of Constant Sorrow” by Charm City Devils begins to play and Muchado really begins to become frantic, he tries to run out of the ring but just runs into the turnbuckle and falls backwards. Slowly Jake Keeton, dressed in street clothes consisting of jeans and a plain gray t-shirt makes his way towards the ring.}

Terri Morasco: I almost feel sorry for Machado.

Trent Helms: For the last damn time, that’s Miguel Muchado!

Vasco Dias: Shut up.

{Keeton enters the ring where Muchado sits in the corner still fumbling with the mask. Jake walks to the opposite corner where runs forward leaps into the air and almost hangs there for a moment before hitting a hesitation Dropkick right to the face of a completely unaware Muchado. Boos erupt from the crowd and Keeton almost looks sorry for a split second before pulling Miguel to his feet. Keeton uses one hand to hold the almost lifeless masked man up and begins humiliating him by slapping him repeatedly and screaming at him.}

Terri Morasco: This is just disgusting. I was a Jake Keeton fan until the last couple of days.

Vasco Dias: I like it, this mean streak is going to lead him right to the Cruiserweight title, mark my words.

{As Jake Keeton continue to slap away at Muchado he rears back for one final blow but the last slap must have woken the masked man up and he brings the toe of his boot up with a perfect placed kick to the groin that causes Keeton to grab his junk and drop to the mat where he squirms in pain. Miguel quickly pulls his mask around, finally able to see again and runs from the ring as the fans cheer and Sacrifice goes to commercial.}

SEGMENT
Tag Team Championship Contract Signing

----------------------------------------------------------

{The arena is buzzing as the fans await the next match on another exciting episode of Sacrifice when suddenly the arena goes dark and the screen flickers to life along with the sound system.}

“I’m about to lose my mind, you’ve been gone for so long.
I’m running out of time.
I need a doctor, call me a doctor.
I need a doctor, doctor, to bring me back to life!”

{And that is when former nCw resident psychiatrist Doctor Riley Griffiths steps through the ring apron and marches right to the ring with a slight smirk on his face. He doesn’t react to the fans reactions, both positive and negative as he climbs the stairs and walks right into the middle of the ring with a smile slowly spreading. The music dies out as Riley brings the mic to his mouth.}

Dr. Riley Griffiths: Ladies and gentlemen, I’m sure some of you may remember me from my time working for this companies predecessor New Championship Wrestling. However, it is not what I am most known for, I myself am a rather distinguished Psychiatrist, and my work with one of your more high profile roster members as caught the attention of the De Montfort family, and well, with some minor discussions I was offered a permanent contract here as the resident psychiatrist and as of this week, the new head of the tag team division!

{The crowd respond with a bizarre mixture of cheers and confusion, not knowing how to react to the mans announcement.}

Dr. Riley Griffiths: I understand that there are some people out there who may feel like I am not qualified to have such a job title and such a division to look after, but I assure you the years I have put into study and practise of the human mind and how it works will pay off considerably well as I aim to reign in this division which is growing out of control, in no small part to two men who have managed to earn a tag title shot at the next pay per view event Lineage, in two weeks time. They are of course, Cyrus Daniels and Stephen Kingsley. Well, boys, you seem to boast an awful lot about your time as felons, so maybe we should make this a little more at home for you whilst we get this contract signing between yourselves and InFamous done.....however, I do have one quick announcement before I ask that you come down to the ring...

{Anticipation seems to be building now, after the actions of Criminal Intent have seemingly caused some trouble for the tag team champions and brought their emotions to the forefront.}

Dr. Riley Griffiths: If either member of Criminal Intent lays a hand on either member of InFamous they will forfeit their tag team title shot and any future tag team title shots! Also, if in the reverse any member of InFamous lays a hand on any member of Criminal Intent they shall forfeit their tag team championships! ….oh, and for the Alex Jones’ in the back....any outside parties deemed to have gotten involved from this point on will be dealt with severely! Now....boys.....LOWER THE CAGE!

{At Riley’s words a cage starts to descend from the rafters as a score of security guards start pouring out from the back, the first set leading Cyrus Daniels and Stephen Kingsley to the modified cage. It has two doors and a large pane of perspex across the middle of the cage, with enough space for the desk and a slot hole to slide the contract through. Criminal Intent walk to the ring with smirks on their faces, admiring the new head of the ag team divisions work}.

Trent Helms: Seems like the new head of our tag team division is helping the criminals feel like home.

Vasco Dias: I feel it may take more than that to keep InFamous away from them...

{And that heralds the arrival of Spike Kane and Rob Diamond, lead to the ring by another set of guards and through a different door. Riley Griffiths is on the side of the perplex that InFamous are and he has a mic in his hand still.}

Dr. Riley Griffiths: Ok boys, remember the warnings I’ve just given you. This specialised cage was created to keep you separated. This contract I hold in my hands is for a tag team title match.....a “Prison Yard” match at Lineage between Criminal Intent and the reigning champions InFamous. Rob and Spike, you are first, please can you sign the contract?

{Riley puts the contract on the table in front of them. On the other side of the glass Cyrus and Stephen simply smirk at their opponents, Rob leans forward to sign almost snarling as he does so. Spike’s eyes never leave Cyrus’ as Rob passes the contract to him and he signs, whilst Rob grabs the microphone.}

Rob Diamond: Look, I don't really give a damn if this happens in a ring, a school yard a back yard or a DAMN PRISON YARD! Where ever it happens the result is going to be the same, INFAMOUS IS GOING TO MURDER YOU! You can take your stupid rules, making it more extreme, make it violent it doesn’t matter. You have the God of Xtreme and the Xtreme American Dream and we will tear you limb from limb! And guess what? It's going to be totaly freaking LEGAL!

{The crowd react with a huge roar of approval as Rob Diamond delivers a little impassioned speech. Spike doesn’t even flinch, and neither does Cyrus Daniels, until he smirks when the microphone and the contract are passed through to him. He nudges Stephen Kingsley who signs the contract with a smile on his face and then passes it to Cyrus whilst he grins broadly at the seriously pissed off Rob Diamond. Cyrus brings the mic to his mouth and stares daggers at Spike Kane.}

Cyrus Daniels: Listen ta me when I tell ya this. Our rules, our world. Our tag team championships. We’ll break ya both down, physically an’ emotionally.....just because we can!

{And with a sick smile on his face he signs the contract and slides it back through to Riley Griffiths, the crowd are going ape shit in aticipation for this match at Lineage.}

Dr. Riley Grifftish: There we have it folks, the match is official! InFamous will defend their tag team championships against Criminal Intent at Lineage in a Prison Yard rules match!

{And just as “I Need A Doctor” by Eminem plays InFamous start banging on the perspex glass houting threats across to Criminal Intent, both men filled with a rage after having their children threatened. Criminal Intent however are not startled at all, they simply smirk back at InFamous as Cyrus Daniels mouths to them “see you at Linage”.}

Terri Morasco: Wow, what a way to close this show and what a match we have to look forward to!

Trent Helms: I don't fancy my old compadres chances, these two are dangerous men, lock them up!

Vasco Dias: Lineage is building up nicely, this is another cherry on the icing.

Terri Morasco: Be sure to tune in next week folks, the final week before Lineage promises to be explosive!
