SINGLES MATCH
Zara Pajari vs Pandora Freeman
----------------------------------------------------------
Terri Morasco: Weāre set to go here with Diamonds action!
Vasco Dias: Thatās right Terri, we have two new girls who are really tearing this division up, and making sure that the women further up the ladder pay attention!
{The arena lights die out as the opening of "BLKKK SKKKN HEAD" by Kanye West plays, before flashing on and off to the beat of the drums. As the song settles into something slightly less chaotic at the ten second mark, a spotlight shines on the stage and Zara Pajari emerges from Gorilla to an outpouring of boos and jeers. A slightly puzzled look crosses her face and leans forward, placing two fingers to her ear as if to ask the crowd to speak up. They oblige and she laughs before sauntering down the ramp, hurling insults at the crowd.}Alison Valance: Making her way to the ring, from Chicago, Illinois; she is the Self-Proclaimed Kanye West of Professional Wrestling... Zara Paraji!
{Another eruption of boos come from the audience at the mention of her name. Zara, who'd previously been all smirks and swagger, lets her face contort into a scowl as she marches down the last stretch of the ramp and rolls under the bottom rope, before exploding up to her feet. She immediately gets in the poor ring announcer's face for having the gall to add the "self-proclaimed" bit into her nickname. The referee breaks up the altercation before it gets violent. Zara scoffs and makes her way to her corner, acting as if nothing had happened.}Vasco Dias: She is one hell of a confident lady!
{The lights dim, Even as the Intro to the song helps to light up UV, glowsticks, people waving and bouncing before the beat drops and out slams Pandora, light up like a christmas tree by UV, as light slowly bleed back to the area Pandora dances down to the ring, easily gracing movements as she hops up the apron and climbs in before gripping the top rope and arching back down to touch the ring mat with her head a leave her feet on the ground making quite the arch as she rises up slowly still bouncing to the music as she encourages the crowd to move with her.}Terri Morasco: I got a feeling weāre going to get a great match out of these two.
Vasco Dias: Either way Pandora looks like sheās here to have a great time.
Terri Morasco: Not so much for Zara, did you know she calls herself the āKanye West of professional wrestling?ā
Vasco Dias: She a gay fish that wrestles?
{In the ring the bell is called and the two women begin to approach each other. Zara has a height advantage, but Pandora has the clear weight advantage as they begin with a test of strength. Pandora is about to push Zara down before Pajari knees her right in the gut forcing Freeman to let go of the hold, and then plants her with a stiff DDT. Zara immediately goes for the cover, but Pandora kicks out before the ref even gets to a one, with an annoyed gesture Zara goes for the cover again, but this time Pandora kicks out with authority, pushing Zara off of her. She gets to her feet and rounds on Pajari before slapping her right across the face.}Vasco Dias: Ouch, some might take that as a sign of disrespect!
{Zara doesnāt react well and charges at Freeman. She tackles Pandora to the ground and just begins wailing on her, unleashing an absolute flurry of lefts and rights that Pandora does her best to try and block, but eventually she just focuses on her own head before grabbing that of Zara and headbutting her full on! Both women fall to the mat prone as they try to recover from the āmeeting on the mindsā Zara crawls to the ropes, and Pandora to those opposite. Pajari puts a hand to her head, checking that she isnāt bleeding, before she shakes her head and throws her hands down as if to say sheās had enough of Pandora. She slides out of the ring and takes a moment to catch her breath. Inside the ring, Pandora Freemanās eyes are alight, and the crowd are roaring on their feet.}Terri Morasco: Pandora is nuts!
Vasco Dias: Not as nuts as sheās about to be!
{She charges across the ring, leaping to the top rope and diving at Zara who turned around roaring as she flies through the air she hits a diving springboard off the top rope BEAT DROP!!!! Both women crash and burn on the outside, the crowd are going nuts āHoly Shit!ā chants rain throughout the arena but both women lay on the ground almost motionless, as the referee begins his count. ONE! ā¦..TWO! ā¦ā¦..THREE! ā¦ā¦.FOUR!}Vasco Dias: I CANNOT believe what we just saw!
{Pandora is showing signs of life as she begins to crawl to the security barrier. Zara hasnāt moved. ā¦..FIVE! ā¦ā¦.SIX! ā¦.Pandora uses the security barrier to pull herself up, and lunges into the ring, making sure she beats the count. ...SEVEN! ā¦...EIGHT! ...Zara is up! She pulls herself up onto the apronā¦..NINE! ā¦..T-SHE JUST MAKES IT BACK IN!}Terri Morasco: How did she manage that!?
{Pandora is leaning in the turnbuckle, a little pissed that Zara made it, but she doesnāt give her much time to recover. She charges across the ring, and ducks under a wile lariat from Pajari before screaming HADOUKEN! And sending Zara flying with a double arm strike. Pandora looks around at the crowd on their feet cheering her on, and she points to the top turnbuckle, before the crowd roarā¦.she heads right up, leaping in a single bound, before nailing the Ryl'eth Day Trip!!! She coversā¦.ONE! ā¦..TWO! ā¦.THREE!!! PANDORA FREEMAN PICKS UP THE WIN!}Vasco Dias: Pandora picks up the win here, but I donāt think this is the end for these two women.

TAG TEAM MATCH
Ana Jones and Amber Richards vs Domino and Paige Triarchy
----------------------------------------------------------
{We cut to the ring and Domino and Paige are already there talking amongst themselves.}Vasco Dias: I really don't think these two realize what is coming....
Terri Morasco: They will...oh yes they will...
{Crybaby by Melanie Martinez hits and Ana and Amber emerge from the back. They both wear "Legacy" shits with matching black, white and gold ring gear. They seperate as they get to the bottom of the entrance and go on either side sliding onto the ring apron. They step in and stand next to each other, no flashy movements, just staring at their opponents.}Terri Morasco: This doesn't look good
Vasco Dias: I feel for them....
{Amber gets onto the apron allowing Ana to start first. Paige to gets on the apron and the bell rings. Ana runs across the ring and slams into Domino crashing her in the corner launching in hard right forearms over and over causing Domino's head to snap back over and over. Ana then snapmares Domino down by her hair and leans in with a buzzsaw kick to her back. Ana stands above her and smiles before pulling Domino back up by the hair and she tags in Amber holding Domino in place for Amber to lay in a hard kick to the ribs.}Vasco Dias: Jesus what a kick...
Terri Morasco: They are laying in these shots....
{Amber grabs Domino and twists her arm in a wristlock and then hits some stiff kicks to Domino's body. Amber smiles and throws Domino across the ring and waits for her to tag in Paige. Paige steps in tentivly and tells her to bring it on, Paige looks around and attacks with a right hand, Amber blocks it a lays in a shot of her down sending her to the mat. Amber pulls Paige up and hits a snap suplex, she rolls her hips and gets to her feet hitting a second on and floats over. She pins 1.....2....Amber pulls Paige up by the hair and walks over tagging in Ana.}Vasco Dias: Uh oh.....
Terri Morasco: And it just gets worse....
{Ana grabs Paige and picks her up slamming her down in the spinebuster she calls the valentines bow. Domino looks in the ring and realises where it's going and gets in to go after Ana, Amber however slides forward and hits a superkick on Domino sending her down, Ana and Amber grab a girl each and as Amber hits the Bloody Murder as Ana hits the flight of the phoenix! Ana pins Paige 1....2....3}Terri Morasco: That was...wow.....
Vasco Dias: The diamonds should be put on notice...they're backā¦

āNo kindness.ā
----------------------------------------------------------
{Queenie stands backstage, arms folded over her chest, leaning against the wall a few steps down from a locker room, her phone in her hand as she scrolls through, obviously focused on what she is doing when Amber Richards approaches her; Amber clears her throat to get Queenie's attention... She simply raises a brow, still looking down at her phone, with a small, irritated sigh she finally slides her phone into the pocket on her fitted white jeans and looks down at Amber with an inquisitive expression...}Quennie: Aye?
Amber Richards: Don't think I don't know what you're doing...
{Queenie groans under her breath, shaking her head with a small smirk, she leans down to be closer to Amber's eye level and clucks her tongue.}Queenie: Ah dunnae got nowt to say te yah....
{Amber opens her mouth to argue back, but Queenie holds up a hand in her face, sneering slightly at her.}Queenie: Ah was tryna fuckin' help ye but ah reckon yah beyond tha now...
Amber Richards: Help? Right... Because that's what you do... Help... Like Kayla..
Queenie: Ain't mah fuckin' fault none of ye got any sense of loyalty... An' besides... Yah challenged me....
{Amber turns a little red from the frustration building up, as she starts to rant, Queenie very obviously tunes her out. Looking up and past Amber's shoulder she tilts her gaze to the left and spots Cable Arcane who passes them slowly, as he does, she notices the way his gaze lingers on Amber for a moment... She raises her brow again, just as his gaze switches from Amber to her - she gives him that same inquisitive look for a second before Amber's fingers click in her face.}Amber Richards: HELLO?!
Queenie: Yah finally done?
Amber Richards: What are you looking at?
{Amber looks behind her an sees the back of Cable now, as he continued down the hall, then back at Queenie with a sneer of her own.}Amber Richards: Why were you looking at Cable?
Queenie: Ah was nah... Ah was jus' ignorin' yah... Yah done yet?
{Amber growls slightly and Queenie laughs loudly, shaking her head as she waves a finger at Amber, unimpressed.}Queenie: Ah ain't Renee... Dunnae fuckin' push me Amber cause unlike him... Ah won't show yah no kindness....
{Queenie pushes Amber to the side, passing her and walking back up towards the locker room, as she knocks, she pauses and looks at Amber, who is now walking away. She sighs and shakes her head before disappearing inside the locker room.}----------------------------------------------------------
SINGLES MATCH
Renee Pleasant vs Chris King
----------------------------------------------------------
{The lights dim, and a block "M" Michigan logo appears in the entryway. After a few moments, "Face Everything and Rise" by Papa Roach rips through the arena speakers, and Chris King steps out into the light, wearing a "Property of Michigan Athletics" navy blue shirt and a pair of navy blue long tights with "KINGMAKER" emblazoned on the side in Michigan maize. The "M" in "Maker" is the Michigan block "M". He soaks in the crowd before heading down the ramp, sliding into the ring under the bottom rope. He waits in the corner as the crowd dies down, staring intently at the other side of the ring.
}Vasco Dias: There's Mr Chris King, and what a great impact he made two weeks ago against our guest
Noah Field:.
Noah Field:: He made an impact?. Come on Vasco, who won that match huh?....
Vasco Dias: Well you di-
Noah Field:: That's right I did, the crown prince, the heir apparent...Noah freakin Field...
Terri Morasco: Great another large ego..we really needed that...Chris King still looked impressive though
{The opening bar of Throne hits the speakers as red lights swirl around the crowd, before settling on ReƱee Pleasant who stands in the middle of the stage, Amber Richards and Mickey on either side, smirking at the crowd as a chorus of boos rise up. ReƱee shrugs and walks down the ramp with purpose, he jumps up onto the apron and holds down the middle rope for amber before he enters the ring through the top and middle ropes. He pushes Mickey off the apron with a shake of the head, then steps over the top rope into the ring. He approaches the referee for a moment and towers over him with a laugh, before walking away, shaking his head still laughing as the music fades out. }Noah Field:: And there's Renee Pleasant, former Imperial Champion,l Man of steel champion and Roulette winner, he's a pretty big deal here right guys?...
Vasco Dias: Wow you really did your research...
Terri Morasco: Yeah I'm impressed...
Noah Field:: Oh you gotta do your due diligence here if not you look stupid...got to wonder though, last week looked real awkward...
Terri Morasco: Uh we might not wanna...bring that up...cause...reasons....
{The bell rings and Renee rolls his wrists in his hands staring at Chris King. They both step to the center and stare each other down. Renee a good six inches taller almost dwarfing King who is an intimidating man in his own right. King to his credit doesn't back down, instead he just laughs and waves him off. Renee smiles arrogantly and balls his fists before launching in with a right hand. King takes it and fires one right back, Renee rubs his jaw and looks almost stunned it phased him that much. Renee swings wildly and Chris uses his agility to duck into the hit the ropes.
He leaps in the air hitting a shoulder block on Pleasant who just stands there and shakes his head, he points to the ropes and tells King to do it again, he does and again Renee doesn't budge, King steps to the side like he's going to hit the ropes again but leaps up with an enzuguri. Renee drops to one knee and King measures him up going for a superkick, Renee catches Chris King's foot and gets to his feet pulling him into a vicious lariat taking him down.}Vasco Dias: Wow Chris King showed his great agility for a big man
Noah Field:: But Renee Pleasant hits like a truck!
{Renee gets to his feet and calls for Chris to get up, as he does Renee slams in an uppercut sending him into the corner. Renee starts laying in hard boots to the ribs. Mickey bounces up and down at ringside trying to "hype" up Renee. He pulls Chris out of the corner by the wrist and slams his knee into his stomach before dropping him with a downward swinging right hand. Meanwhile outside the ring Amber looks disinterested as some fans start whistling and cat calling, Renee looks outside the ring hearing the gestures and see's Amber with a small grin, he walks over and leans on the ropes yelling at her.}Noah Field:: Renee better get his head in the game instead of on his wife...
Vasco Dias: Renee was in charge what the hell is he doing?...
Noah Field:: She is a hot lil thing though...
Terri Morasco: Don't...don't let him hear you say that...
{King uses the distraction to get to his feet and launch into Renee with a right hand, he starts throwing punches at Renee over and over again each right hand taking more and more out of the giant gypsy. He barrels Renee in the corner and hits another hard right that throws Renee's head back looking even more impressive as it causes his hair to fly, King uses the ropes for leverage and hits a corner step up enzuguri and Renee drops into the corner. King pops up and the crowd gets behind him as he runs in with a cannonball.}Noah Field:: See ya cannot turn your back on Chris King...I've known him for years...
Vasco Dias: You would have some great insight...
Terri Morasco: Renee is a tough tough guy...he's almost seven foot tall and he's a former bare knuckle boxer...
{Renee rolls from the ring as King gets hyped up. He follows Renee to the floor and Renee catches him with a right hand, but as King falls back he grabs Renee and pulls him face first into the steel steps. King pops to his feet but notices Noah Field: on commentary, the two men lock eyes and Noah gets up with an arrogant grin as they jaw at each other. Chris suddenly moves out of the way as Renee comes flying in with a big boot that connects with Amber Richards!. Amber goes down hard and Noah, Chris and everyone else look shocked. Renee however just carries on and blasts King with a hard shot and rolls him back in the ring.}Vasco Dias: Wow...you...do you think that...
Terri Morasco: That it was on purpose?....no...I don't...I don't know....
Noah Field:: Damn that was...is she ok?...that was Chris King's fault..y'all saw it he shouldn't have moved...that's right Ladies and gentlemen Chris King causes women to get kicked in the face!
{The referee admonishes Renee in the ring, Renee keeps trying to shove past him and get to King who is re-couperating. The referee points to Renee and shakes his head. Renee simply rolls his eyes and shoves the referee out of the way to get to King. He pulls Chris King up and whips him into the ropes going for a big boot, King is able to duck it and stop, he turns and kicks Renee in the stomach going for the package fallaway powerbomb. He lifts Renee up and shows incredible strength slamming him down. King pulls himself onto the top rope and aims for a senton, Noah Field: gets to his feet and yells at King who gets distracted, he then leaps off but Renee moves causing him to crash and burn. Renee grabs King and hits the RAV!, he pins 1.....2....3}----------------------------------------------------------

"Just Ask!"
----------------------------------------------------------
{The camera cuts backstage where Ryan Shane is standing alone. He is wearing his brand new āJust Askā T-shirt and has the Man of Steel title draped over his left shoulder. On his face he canāt help but wear a smile.}Ryan Shane: Bloody Assizes was an amazing night. Nighthawk and I went out there and put on one hell of a match. I know there has been talk about him not being what he once was. Iāll admit that some of that talk has come from me. Thatās why I wanted to say right here, right nowā¦Thank you!
{The crowd cheers as Shane shows Nighthawk respect by thanking him for the match.}
Ryan Shane: That match Hawk is one that I know when I look back on things will define my reign as Man of Steel champion. I know some of you couldnāt find it in your hearts to cheer for me over Nighthawk. I get that. There is still time to get on board. This baby right here isnāt going anywhere anytime soon.
{He points to the belt on his shoulder which pops the crowd. His supporters try to get a SHANE chant started.}Ryan Shane: Overall I would say Bloody Assizes was a success for Ryan Shane. Thatās why despite the bumps and bruises Iām wearing a smile on my face. I did exactly what I said I would. I guess there is nothing left to sayā¦
{He turns and walks out of the view of the camera. For a moment the camera just shows an empty room. Ryan Shane then walks back into the picture.}
Ryan Shane: Wait! There was that other thing that happened. Nighthawk and I had our asses handed to us by Steel OāBuffinton!
{The fans react in a way that isnāt exactly in favor of that.}Ryan Shane: It seems the IWF has a little problem of some of the men around here bending to the will of the women around them. I saw it will Zasshu and now I see it with Steel. Both men are being used to further the careers of the women who control them.
{By now the smile is gone from his face and his tone had turned more serious.}Ryan Shane: Addisyn Starr, I donāt understand how you get to play with the big boys around here. Perhaps itās because you went out and got yourself the biggest boy of them all. One thing I know isā¦Iām not going to give into your attacks. You donāt get to set the rules.
{Ryan adjusts the Man of Steel title on his shoulder.}Ryan Shane: If you want a shot at being Woman of Steel champion as you called it Iām an easy man to find. Youāve already sent your message so you know that. Iām not going to run and hide. If you want a shot on MY title you can have it, anytime, anywhere.
{Ryan points to the words on his shirt.}Ryan Shane: Just ask!

TRIPLE THREAT MATCH
If Nighthawk or Dre Cutler win they get 5 points in the Heir to the Throne, if Noah King wins he will be put into contention for an Invictus Championship match.
Nighthawk vs Dre Cutler vs Noah King
----------------------------------------------------------
Ring Announcer Alison Valance: āThe next match is scheduled for one fall and is an Heir to the Throne triple threat match.ā
{"Die This Way" by Hopsin hits the speaker system. The crowd buzzes in anticipation as the bass from the song rattles through their chests. The curtain brushes aside and Dre Cutler hops onto the stage, squatting down with his elbows on his thighs as he examines the crowd, a smile on his face. He stands up, head bobbing to the music, and kisses index and middle fingers and points them to the heavens above. He bounces towards the ring and slides under the bottom rope. He makes his way to a neutral corner and does some quick stretches as he waits for the match to start.}Alison Valance: āIntroducing first, from Montgomery, Alabama, and weighing in at 205 poundsā¦.. Dre Cutler!ā
{The lights go black and then the arena is suddenly bathed in gold tinted light. The words "Apple Presents" bleed across the screen in the arena. Then the words "The Crown Prince" follow. A loud explosion goes off as "A Cut Above" queues up. Noah Field steps into the arena with a smirk on his face and Morgan Kennedy at his side, trailed by Noah's hired muscle, Mark Mercer. Together the three of them march to the ring while Noah takes in the boos of the crowd. As the come to ringside pauses, flips his hair back, making sure it's perfection. Then he climbs up on the apron goes to the turnbuckle where he scales it. Noah runs his hands down his chest to his abs and mouths the words "perfection" before hopping off the turnbuckle into the ring, leaning against the ropes.}
Alison Valance: āAnd his 1st opponent, from Los Angeles, California and weighing in at 224 poundsā¦.. Noah Field!ā
{As the ring announcer moves to a neutral corner the lights in the sold-out arena dim for just a moment as the opening strains of "I Remember (Hail To The Victors Intro)" by Tristam boom out over the sound speakers, as Nighthawk walks to the ring confidently shaking hands with the crowd as he does so. Climbing up on the outside of the 2nd and 3rd turnbuckles the "Wrestling Machine" exhorts the crowd to make more and more noise before climbing into the ring and submitting himself to be checked out by the referee.} Alison Valance: āAnd his 2nd opponent, from Chicago, Illinois and weighing in at 185 poundsā¦.. āThe Man of 1000 Holdsāā¦.. āThe Wrestling Machineā Nighthawk!ā
Terri Morasco: āAnd our next match in the Heir to the Throne tournament is a triple-threat match between two relative newcomers Noah Field and Dre Cutler and Nighthawk whose entry into this tournament has drawn some controversy. Your thoughts Vasco?ā
Vasco Dias: āIāve always been one of Nighthawkās biggest fans for what he can do inside the ring. But I have to agree with the critics, Terri. Heās not done enough to be awarded a spot in this tournament. Iāll go a step further. When the qualifying tournament is over, I would not be surprised if Nighthawk has 0 points to his name.ā
{As the referee rings the bell all 3 men stare holes through each other before Noah Field locks up with Nighthawk who quickly spins out of the collar-and-elbow lockup and executes a gorgeous double knucklelock armdrag that almost sends the 2nd-generation star careening to the floor via the bottom rope as Dre Cutler looks on somewhat impressed before going for a deep armdrag himself which he gets before Noah Field sneaks in the back door and attempts to get a quick win on Dre Cutler with a schoolboy that gets a quick 1-count and draws the Los Angeles native to check with the referee allowing Nighthawk to execute a gorgeous sunset flip that gets another 1-count before all 3 men go for dropkicks at the exact same time, causing Nighthawk and Dre Cutler to stand at the ready as Noah Field flips out on the ring apron.} Terri Morasco: āIn a triple threat match, the grind-it-out style of Nighthawk is, by definition, not something you can employ. Itās too hard to keep your eyes on 2 opponents and wrestle the sort of technical style he does. Youāre going to see Nighthawk take more risks, and try more explosive offense, than he usually does.ā
Vasco Dias: āNone of that is going to matter, though. Heās either going to blow it by going for the wrong risk, or get caught a step behind. Iāll say it again, Terri, Nighthawk does not belong in this tournament. If he is lucky enough to win this match, it will be only because Noah or Dre made a mistake. Not because of anything Nighthawk is able to do.ā
{As Nighthawk and Dre Cutler stand at the ready, with Noah Field on the outside, they nod to each other and shake hands before immediately going into a lockup as Nighthawk slips out the back door with a hammerlock. But as the Chicago native allows the hammerlock to do the work Noah Field rushes in and pulls Nighthawk out of the ring by his hair before applying it himself, smirking and yelling out āabsolute perfectionā as the crowd boos and blows loud raspberries in the general direction of the Los Angeles native. Quickly releasing the hammerlock Noah again goes for another schoolboy only for Dre to see it coming and roll through it before landing a short basement dropkick right to the side of the face before covering and getting a quick 2-count. But as the Montgomery native looks to keep the pressure on he turns around right into a springboard clothesline from Nighthawk, who follows up the advantage by turning his attention to Noah Field and hitting a beautiful springboard moonsault. Looking to go for a cover the āWrestling Machineā is quickly hit with a short falling forearm smash on the collarbone from Dre Cutler that lands with an audible smack and draws gasps of shock from the crowd.} Terri Morasco: āWe talked earlier about how this was going to be a different match than we usually expect to see. Hereās an example. In a 1-on-1 match, Nighthawk might very well spend a good amount of time working holds, and would feel out his opponents to put his strategy together. Because he canāt do that with the 3rd man in the ring, not counting the referee, youāve seen him take more risks and go with more of an aerial offense than usual.ā
Vasco Dias: āWe donāt know a lot about Noah Field and Dre Cutler save for some highlight packages weāve seen on the internet. Maybe it could be nerves, or they just need a minute to get untracked, but right now weāre struggling to see any of the power game we saw from Noah Field, and weāve only seen a flash of that hard-hitting offense from Dre Cutler. The longer this match goes, though, you have to expect some of those nerves will fade.ā
{Turning his attention to Noah Field as Nighthawk slumps against the bottom rope Dre immediately lands a quartet of hard middle kicks to the chest, the last blow landing with such an audible thud that some members of the crowd at ringside openly wince over the force of it. Moving to attack the most senior man in the matchup Dre is quickly alley-ooped to the floor by Nighthawk via a well-timed monkey-flip, although the youngster manages to land on his feet but does slide into the guardrail back-first leaving him stunned for a moment. Running his thumb across his throat Nighthawk quickly turns his attention to Noah Field and goes for an Orange Crush Bomb. But as he sets up for the Orange Crush Bomb Noah Field struggles to prevent it before Nighthawk lands a cracking superkick right on the jaw before finally hitting the maneuver. However, those few moments of struggle means that Dre Cutler can sneak in the back door and throw Nighthawk out of the ring and cover Noah Field to get the win.}
Alison Valance: āThe winner of the matchā¦.. Dre Cutler!ā

āOne true champion.ā

{Throne - Bring me to the Horizon hits the speakers and a chorus of boos rises up through the crowd as Renee Pleasant steps out onto the stage. As he makes his way down the ramp, occasionally laughing or sneering at the yells from the crowd; behind him a few steps back on his right is Mickey, who just nods his head to the music as the crowd continue to boo... Renee steps up onto the apron and over the top rope to stand in the middle of the ring as Mickey runs the steps and slips under the top rope to stand beside Renee...}
Vasco Diaz: Looks like Renee has something to say tonight...
Terri Monasco: Can't help but notice Amber is missing....
Vasco Diaz: Probably recovering from that kick to the head because of Chris Kane!
{As the music dies out, Mickey look up at Renee, who nods slowly, waving a hand out in front of him before crossing his arms over his chest.}Mickey: Are yah done? All of yas - Get yah shit ova wit rite now cause mah client ain't gonna speak so much as ah word to yah fuckin' scrubs til yah done...
{The crowd starts to boo again and Mickey shakes his head, walking back and forth between the ropes as he yells at the crowd, whilst he is doing this, Renee just stands perfectly still, his eyes trained on Mickey.}Mickey: Shut yah mouths tha lotta ye! Show some respect for tha King!
{Mickey finally stops in the middle of the ring, standing in front of Renee who towers above him, Renee tilts his head to look down at his cousin with a smirk on his face.}Mickey: It has come to tha attention of mah client tha not much has changed round these parts... An' it got me ta thinkin tha ya all are needin' a history lesson.... Seems tha big guys at tha top forgot wha happened tha last time yah tried tah excluse him from ah tourny....
{Renee nods his head slightly, looking back up out at the crowd and chuckling to himself as they boo...}Mickey: Seems tha big ole dick swingin' Verona has forgotten wha happens when yah try an' hold tha big man down!
{The crowd laughs a little at this, which seemingly irks Renee as he snatches the mic from Mickey's hands with a head shake, grabbing his cousin by the shoulder he tosses him backwards across the ring and down to the canvas... Mickey falls down on his ass, losing his balance before sitting up and looking up at Renee a little miffed as Renee walks to the far ropes pointing out at the crowd.}Renee Pleasant: Yah reckon this is funny do yah? A big fuckin' game? Well... Ah got ah game fer yah...
{Renee nods now, backing up slightly he turns to look up the ramp with a grin.}Renee Pleasant: One of tha first lessons ah learned in this place was tah get wha yah want... Yah gotta TAKE it... Ah lesson ah'm sure yah all know ah live my life by these days....
{Renee chuckles, stroking his face slowly as the crowd boos more aggressively...}Renee Pleasant: So, wit tha in mind... Ah'm gonna make it impossible for ye to do anythin' but Give me exactly wha ah deserve... Every single week, ah will take on an' down one of yah precious lil Heri to tha Throne bitches... An then, wen ah have decimated wha yah consider to be competition... Well... Yah ain't gonna have no choice but to give me tha freshly crowned Champion on a platta...
{Renee approaches the ropes facing the ramp now, leaning over them slightly with a smirk on his face...}Renee Pleasant: Ah am tha ONE true Champion in IWF an' ah am gonna remind yah of tha Verona... Yah an' every single fuckin' idjit backstage pissin' their panties at tha thought of bein' next... Oh an' speakin' of next...

THE SILVER SCREEN QUEEN IS HERE!!!!
Iām Coming Out by Diana Ross begins to blast all across the speakers and as that happens we are able to see Christina Millar emerging through the backstage curtain and the roaring cheers of the crowd are deafening. She isnāt alone as her best friend Zelda Knite comes out beside her. Crystal smiles as her grouping of paparazzi gather up in front of the ring and they snag photo after of the Latina beauty. She walks down the ramp as she begins to slap the hands of the roaring crowd. The crowd cheers loudly in return as they glance back at the Hollywood hottie, and Zelda smiles as she throws up the heart symbol.}Alison Valance: Residing in Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 115 pounds...CRYSTAL...MILLAR!!
{Her following of paparazzi meet her as does a red carpet. She takes in appeal of the cameras smiling as flashes begin to go off one after another. She then runs up the steps where she walks towards the middle of the apron. She blows kisses out to the crowd before she drops into a split entering the ring. The crowd begins to go nuts and she waits patiently for the match to begin.}Terri Morasco: Sheās looking to turn a new leaf here in the IWF.
Vasco Dias: Sounds like the same stuff...guess weāll see.
Alison Valance: And her partner...
{āOver Youā by Girlicious plays throughout the arena.

{The two sisters jump up on the apron, posing for the crowd, showing off their beauty before each sitting on the middle rope and swinging their legs to the left, pulling the rest of their bodies in as well. They pose again for the crowd who boo as the two talk strategy for the match.}Terri Morasco: She leads the Heiress to the Throne Standings, though her sister earned her some of those points.
Vasco Dias: It doesnāt matter how she got her points. She has them and she leads the whole thing and looks to add to those tonight!
Alison Valance: And their opponentsā¦
{Monster by Paramore begins to blare all across the sound system and as it does Kate Steele along with her husband Todd Warren begins to emerge from the back curtain. Kate has a huge smile on her face as she stares at the roaring crowd who are all cheering her on. She begins to sprint down the aisle as she claps the hands of outstretched fans.}Alison Valance: From Berkshire, England, weighing in at 110 pounds...KATE...STEELE!!!
{Kate finally makes it to the ring and she quickly runs up the ring steps as she grabs the turnbuckle as hard as she can. She immediately leap frogs over the ropes and bounces about before she points at the crowd cheering her on. She closes her eyes placing a single finger over her lips offering the Shhhh sound which all the fans follow in. She takes her place in the corner afterwards waiting for the match to begin.}Terri Morasco: She too seems to be attempting to right the ship.
Vasco Dias: She lost the Shieldmaiden to Paige...who looks simply gorgeous in Saraās corner by the way...and went nuts, and now supposedly, in the snap of the fingers, sheās good again...whateverā¦
Alison Valance: And now for the final participantā¦
{The lights go out before the tron flickers to life with a flick of orange hair, before āBrick by Boring Brickā by Paramore blasts out of the PA with orange and green lights flashing wildly. Shea OāHara barges through the curtain before standing in the middle of the stage. She lowers herself, almost squatting, before thrusting her arms into the air with the ādevil hornsā as a small pyro goes off behind her. She then sprints to the ring, sliding under the ropes and runs to the camera side and leans through the ropes on the second rope throwing up her ādevil hornsā once again.}Alison Valance: From Cork, Ireland, weighing in at 135 pounds...SHEA...OOOOOOāHARA!!!
Terri Morasco: All of these women are looking to add to their Heiress to the Throne totals, and at the same time, take away from the other team.
Vasco Dias: May the best Diamond win.
{Paige exits the ring in a tight black dress, the Shieldmaiden Championship hanging off of her shoulder as the bell rings and we have Crystal and Kate starting things off. The two circle the ring before locking up with Crystal going behind Kate, but itās quickly Kate who reverses and is now behind Crystal, quickly attempting a German Suplex, but itās Crystal with some elbows to the head, stunning Kate before grabbing her by the head and turning up and around the turnbuckle, planting Kate with a Tornado DDT, quickly going for the cover but barely getting a two before Kate gets her shoulder up. Crystal grabs hold of her and pulls her up, only to have Kate bust her grip and lift her in the air, dropping her on her head with a Brainbuster. Kate then covers, but only gets a two as well.}Terri Morasco: Both women with close calls to start the match.
Vasco Dias: A little back and forth will do some good.
{Kate lifts Crystal to her feet and drags her to the Steele/OāHara corner, tagging in Shea, grabbing hold of Crystalās arm before Shea hits it hard with a Double Axe Handle, causing Crystal to stumble away in pain. Shea waits for Crystal to come to a stop, then runs in and hits her with a Splash, and as Crystal comes out of the corner, Shea kicks her in the gut and flips her over with a Snap Suplex, quickly floating into the cover, but another near fall as Crystal kicks out at two.}Terri Morasco: Crystal showing some resilience.
Vasco Dias: Nobody ever said she wasnāt talented, her problem is putting it together.
{Shea grabs hold of Crystal and looks to hit the Celtic Pride T-Bone Suplex, but Crystal fights out of it with elbows to the head of Shea that causes her to spin toward the center of the ring, turning back to Crystal who NAILS HER WITH THE FLASHING LIGHTS CHICK KICK!!!}Terri Morasco: Hereās Crystalās opportunity.
Vasco Dias: Please get Sara in.
{Crystal crawls to the corner and goes to tag in Sara who drops down from the apron and laughs at Crystal who looks on and starts getting up with the help of the ropes, anger in her eyes as sheās spun around by Kate who was just tagged in, only to blast her with a forearm. Sara then hops back on the apron and tags herself in. Crystal doesnāt appreciate this and pulls Sara into the ring by her hair. Meanwhile Shea has tagged herself back in as Paige jumps on the apron and argues with Crystal. The referee is focused on the action as Paige decks Crystal with a forearm, sending her into Shea who turns to retaliate. Sara then takes advantage of the situation with a āKnockout Kissā Standing Side Kick to the back of Sheaās head, laying her out on the mat.}Terri Morasco: Shea might be out!
Vasco Dias: If not...she will beā¦
{Sara lifts Shea to her feet and up on her shoulders, dropping her with the āAll About Meā (Rack Attack)! She goes for the cover, hooking the leg with a smile on her faceā¦
1!
2!!
3!!!
Just as Kate tries to make the save but is a moment too late as the bell rings.}Alison Valance: Here is your winners, earning five points apiece...Crystal Millar and Sara...GARCIA!!!
{āOver Youā plays on the sound system as Paige and Sara celebrate in the ring as Kate and Shea back up the ramp, and Crystal stand between it all looking back and forth before shaking her head and heading back up the ramp, the camera focusing on the celebrating twins before cutting away.}----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT
āPoor widdle Kane.ā
----------------------------------------------------------
{ Jekyll and Hyde by FFDP hits the pa as the lights start to strobe pink. Rob Diamond slowly struts out onto the ramp as the crowd boos him with everything they've got, he smiles and looks around the arena before raising both hands up over his head giving a two finger salute to the entire crowd. He walks down the full length of the ramp both middle fingers held high and his head bowed before reaching the ring where he drops his arms and rolls in under the bottom rope. }Allison Valance: Introducing to the ring at this time-
{ Rob rips the microphone from her hands as the music starts to fade slightly. }Rob Diamond: THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!
{ The crowd is booing him viciously as he stands there with a mic in hand. }Terri Morasco: Last Sunday Night at Bloody Assizes, Rob Diamond made his presence felt when he attacked Warren Kane during his match with Jayson Matthews, costing him a shot at the Imperial Championship in two months at Legacy.
Vasco Dias: He did this company a favor by removing the lesser Kane from a position he doesnāt deserve.
Terri Morasco: Rob is supposed to be Warrenās best friend!
Vasco Dias: Warren sure as hell hasnāt treated him that way.
Terri Morasco: Well itās hard to be friends with the man who ended Steve Awesomeās career.
Vasco Dias: Yet another favor from Rob Diamond.
{ He looks around again still grinning as the fans boo. }Rob Diamond: AWWWW!!!! POOR WIDDLE KANE!!!!!
{ That just infuriates them more. }Rob Diamond: His best buddy in the whole wide world, the only man who stood by his side during his coming out party double crossed him and cost him an Imperial Title shot! Letās all just shed a fucking tear!
{ He lays the sarcasm on thick as he continues. }Rob Diamond: Oh what was that!? But Rob heās your best friend, he stood by your side during a career ending concussion!!! Well guess what, my concussion? Fake! My career ending? Fake! This whole bullshit face run for the last year!? FAKE! And my friend ship with widdle Warren Kane, you better believe that shit was fake.
Terri Morasco: What!?
Vasco Dias: The real Rob Diamond is back!
Rob Diamond: See, bout a year ago Roberto Verona approached me with an offer I couldnāt refuse. He offered me a seven digit guaranteed contract, he offered me whatever dates I wanted to work, he offered me all expenses paid and my own seat on his private jet. All I had to do was become the biggest face in the company, lull all you fucking sheep into a false sense of security as I ātried and failedā to ātake down the bossā because he and I both knew there wasnāt a goddamn person in the back with balls big enough to take Verona on!
Terri Morasco: I donāt believe what Iām hearing.
Vasco Dias: This is awesome.
Rob Diamond: And you idiots ate it up! You cheered me, loved me, cried for me when you thought it was all over and then last month when I drove that arrogant piece of shit Steve Awesome head first through a table onto concrete I essentially ripped your still beating hearts from your chest! And now Iāve taken your little sympathy project in Warren Kane and crushed his future in the palm of my hand.
{ The crowd is hating him right now, screaming āSHUT THE FUCK UP!ā }Rob Diamond: All your heroes are gone! The only ones left are the ones strong enough to adapt and survive! And everyone else, your little Jayson Matthews and Nighthawks!? Theyāll come crumbling down soon too. IWF doesnāt belong to people like you, people like Warren Kane or Steve Awesome, it belongs to the powerful! To me! Verona! The only men with any real pull in this company! And donāt worry, Iām not done yet, this was only phase one, wait until you see what Iāve got planned for phase two!
{ He chucks the mic over his shoulder and throws up the two finger salute to the crowd as they continue to boo him. }Terri Morasco: I canāt believe what I just heard!
Vasco Dias: Iām just so happy right now.
Terri Morasco: Butā¦ But who helped him take Steve Awesome out?
Vasco Dias: Phase two, Terri, Phase two.
{ Rob just stands there basking in the boos as we head to commercial. }----------------------------------------------------------
SINGLES MATCH
The winner of the match gets 5 point in the Heir to the Throne.
Ryan Shane vs Johnny Gillmen
----------------------------------------------------------
Alison Valance: The following contest is a Heir to the Throne tournament match!
{Cannons shooting jets of water blast high into the air as The Offspring's "Nitro (Youth Energy)" begins to play. A lone blue spotlight appears on-stage as Johnny Gillmen steps in from behind the curtain, sporting aqua blue, olive green, and silver tights with matching boots and tassels and a T-shirt bearing the logo of his alma mater.}Alison Valance: Introducing first, weighing one hundred and ninety pounds, from Midlothian, Texas...Johnny Gillmen!!!
{Carrying his multi-colored surfboard with him, Johnny passes through, high-fiving fans along the way before sliding his longboard underneath the ring and hopping in to wait for his opponent.}Terri Morascso: Johnny Gillmen the forever laid back beach dweller looks ready to put Bloody Assizes behind him. He was screwed out of the Invictus title but he has a chance to earn a shot at the Imperial title.
Vasco Dias: Gillmen has no one to blame but himself. He wasn't good enough to beat Zasshu. With five points on the line he better hope tonight he is good enough to beat 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. The Man of Steel title is around his waist. Pyro goes off as Shane makes his way to the ring as the fans erupt in cheers.}Alison Valance: His opponent, weighing two hundred and ten pounds, from Allen Park, Michigan...he is the IWF Man of Steel champion...Ryan Shane!!!
{As he gets to the ring he hops onto the apron and enters. Once in the ring he raises his hands high to the continued cheers of the crowd.}Terri Morasco: Ryan Shane is coming off a tough match against Nighthawk. āThe Wrestling Machineā really put Shane through the ringer.
Vasco Dias: Yeah but he came out stronger than ever. With every win that target gets bigger on is back. It looks like Addisyn Starr could be the next to try and take the title from him.
{Inside of the ring the two men are waiting for the bell to ring. The referee gives the signal and the match is underway.}
DING DING DING
{Before the two men can even lock up Gillmen extends his hand to Shane. The MoS champ looks to the crowd for a moment before shaking his opponent's hand.}Terri Morasco: A sign of sportsmanship from the two men.
Vasco Dias: It makes me sick. With so much on the line how can you be worried about sportsmanship?
{The two men lock up and Shane takes early control with a side headlock. He cinches it in as Gillmen struggles to break free. Johnny delivers a hard elbow to the midsection of Shane and he breaks the hold. Gillmen hits the ropes but Shane takes him down with a quick clothesline.}Terri Morasco: A nice clothesline by Shane and Gillmen is on the mat.
Vasco Dias: Shane has to be the favorite in this match Terri.
{Shane goes for an elbow drop but Gillmen is able to roll out of the way. Johnny back to hit feet quickly and he hits a dropkick to the downed Shane. He follows it up with a snap suplex and goes for a cover...1...2. Shane kicks out at two.}Terri Morasco: Gillmen tries to end it early but Shane won't be put away that easily.
Vasco Dias: Anything can happen in that ring.
{With both men back to their feet Gillmen whips Shane into the ropes. Johnny drops his head and Shane straightens him up with a stiff kick to the chest. From there he lays into Gillmen with left hands.}Terri Morasco: Southpaw Shuffle! Shane has Gillmen reeling.
Vasco Dias: That discus punch has Gillmen checking to see if he has all his teeth.
{ Shane whips Gillmen hard into the corner and follows him in with a splash. He then whips him into the opposite corner. This time Gillmen is able to get his knees up and drives them into the chest of Shane. Gillmen goes to the second turnbuckle and hits a bulldog. 1...2...}Terri Morasco: Gillmen with another cover but Shane kicks out again.
Vasco Dias: He is being pesky. I believe Shane referred to him as a fly!
{Gillmen using martial arts kicks to keep Shane from getting to his feet. Johnny goes for a hurricanrana but Shane counters with a powerbomb. With Gillmen on the mat Shane climbs to the second rope and hits an elbow drop. 1...2}
Terri Morasco: Allen Park Elbow only gets two.
Vasco Dias: Perhaps Shane would have an easier time putting Gillmen away if he had a pair of chopsticks.
{Shane stays in control with a russian leg sweep. With Gillmen on the mat Shane goes for a figure four leg lock. He has it locked it and Gillmen slaps the mat in pain. He fights to get to the ropes and finally is able to break the hold.}Terri Morasco: Gillmen gets to the ropes but you have to wonder how much of an effect that will have on him.
Vasco Dias: Shane has become very proficient at submission holds in the past couple of months.
{While Gillmen is pulling himself up with the ropes Shane goes for a Someday Snap. Gillmen hangs onto the ropes and Shane rolls backwards. Gillmen turns around and looks for another hurricanarana. Shane goes to counter with another powerbomb but Gillmen is able to get behind him. Gillmen hits him with a reverse hurricanrana.}Terri Morasco: He calls that the Reverse Blast!
{Gillmen with another cover. 1...2...Shane just gets the shoulder up.}Vasco Dias: That was a close one. Just inches from the important five points.
{Gillmen just shrugs his shoulders before he goes back to work on Shane. He hits him with martial arts chops and kicks that sting as they connect. Shane falls back to his knees and Gillmen approaches him. That is when Shane quickly hits a kneeling jawbreaker.}Terri Morasco: Desperation move by Ryan Shane.
Vasco Dias: Or was it calculated? I guess we will never know.
{Shane takes control and sends Gillmen into the ropes. Gillmen holds on. Shane then charges at him but Johnny avoids it.}Terri Morasco: Gillmen ducked and just dumped Shane to the floor!
Vasco Dias: It looks like Shane hit the floor hard.
{Inside of the ring Gillmen sees Shane flat on his back outside the ring. With encouragement from the crowd he climbs to the top rope. He leaps onto the prone Shane with a shooting star press.}Terri Morasco: High Tide! What a high risk move by Gillmen!
Vasco Dias: He might have taken them both out of the match.
{1...2...3...4...5...6...Gillmen is able to get back to his feet and into the ring. 7...8...9...Shane just barely gets back into the ring before the count of ten.}Terri Morasco: That was a close one. Shane almost didn't beat the count.
Vasco Dias: Gillmen was so close to the win there. It doesn't matter how you get the five points. You just have to get them.
{Both men are in the ring and Gillmen goes for a vertical suplex. Shane counters and lands behind Gillmen. Shane hits the ropes and goes for the Shaning Wizard. Gillmen rolls out of the way.}Terri Morasco: Johnny Gillmen has Shane up. It looks like he is looking for Hang Ten!
{Shane fights out of it. He lands behind Gillmen and connects with a Someday Snap.}Vasco Dias: Shane just avoided what could have been the end and hit the Someday Snap.
{With Gillmen on the mat clutching at his back Shane locks him in his signature submission move.}Terri Morasco: He has A Crying Shane locked on in the middle of the ring.
Vasco Dias: This one is over. Greater men than Gillmen have tapped out to it.
{Gillmen is crying out in pain and doing everything he can to get to the ropes. He inches closer and closer but just as he is about to reach the ropes Shane drags him back into the center of the ring.}
Terri Morasco: Gillmen was so close.
Vasco Dias: Not close enough.
{Gillmen continues to cry out as Shane has give locked up. The referee continues to check on him. Eventually the pain is too much and Johnny Gillmen has to tap.}
DING DING DING
Alison Valance: The winner of the match by submission...Ryan Shane!!!
Terri Morasco: What a hard fought battle by both men. Neither man has anything to be ashamed of.
Vasco Dias: Shane might have picked up the victory and it pains me to say it, but both of these guys may have put the rest of the Heir to the Throne competitors on notice.
{Johnny Gillmen and Ryan Shane both stand in the center of the ring after a hard fought match. This time it's Ryan who extends his hand first. It doesn't take long for Gillmen to shake it.}Terri Morasco: It looks like this match is going to end just like it began. You've got to love the sportsmanship Vasco.
Vasco Dias: It still makes me sick.
{āApplauseā by Lady Gaga begins to play and Addisyn Starr appears at the top of the ramp. She begins to make her way down to the ring.}Terri Morasco: What is she doing out here? This has nothing to do with her!
Vasco Dias: Maybe she is out here to ask for a Man of Steel title shot. Shane did tell her she knew where to find him.
{Inside the ring Gillmen and Shane both stare at Starr as she makes he way to the ring. They are both distracted as Steel O'Buffington comes from the crowd and enters the ring. He grabs Shane around the waist and delivers a German suplex.}Terri Morasco: No! Steel just attacked Shane again. So much for her asking for a shot Vasco.
Vasco Dias: It's possible I may have been wrong about that.
{Gillmen tries to come to the aid of Shane but it tossed to the outside for his effort. O'Buffington turns his attention back to Shane as Addisyn Starr enters the ring. Steel lifts Shane high and sends him crashing back down to the mat.}Terri Morasco: Elevated Powerbomb!
Vasco Dias: That sure brought a smile to Addisyn's face.
{ Ryan lays unconscious in the ring and Starr steps over his chest and stands on top of him making the belt motion around her waist as the crowd boos. }----------------------------------------------------------
SINGLES MATCH
If Cable Arcane wins he gets 5 points in the Heir to the Throne Tournament.
Cable Arcane vs Jayson Matthews
----------------------------------------------------------
{ The lights in the arena dim and strobe red as "Looking down the barrel of Today" by Hatebreed begins to play through out the arena. The crowd gets to their feet and boo as Cable Arcane slowly struts out from behind the curtain, his head bowed and bobbing along with the music. He steps in the middle of the stage then throws his arms out and his head up as the song kicks into high gear, bright white lights lighting up behind him practically blinding everyone watching. The lights dim again and strobe red with the music as Cable Arcane begins to make his way to the ring, strutting down the ramp before hopping up onto the apron, pulling himself up and flying between the ropes. He stops in the middle of the ring and throws his arms out again soaking in the hate of the crowd as his music begins to fade. }Vasco Dias: Itās good to see a real athlete back in IWF.
Terri Morasco: Iām not going to take anything away from Cable as he was very impressive during his first run here in IWF but he has yet to match up with any of the talent currently on the roster.
Vasco Dias: I beg to differ, heās faced at least one man on our roster very recently and actually defeated them.
Terri Morasco: That was somewhere else, as far as myself and the rest of the IWF universe is concerned Cable Arcane hasnāt proved anything to anyone yet.
Vasco Dias: You mean like the fluke Jayson Matthews who only finds himself with an Imperial Championship match because Warren Kane carried him there and Rob Diamond handed it to him?
Terri Morasco: Say whatever you want, Jayson Matthews earned his shot.
{ The drum beat kicks in. Then the guitar riffs. Jayson Matthews comes stepping out onto the entrance ramp moving his head to the beat and staring out into the crowd with a wide eyed stare of awe at the packed house in attendance. He steps onto the entrance stage and makes sure to hit both sides of the stage to hype the crowd as the lyrics start.
Last call now I'm outta time
And I don't got no valentine
Singled out, now I stand alone
The underdog in a modern world
Suburbia is hot tonight
But nothing seems to feel alright
I don't want your sympathy
I just need a little therapy
At least that's what they say to me.
With that Jayson pumps himself up and runs for the ring with intensity as the chorus starts.
Hey ho let's go
I'm gonna start a riot
You don't wanna fight it
One two fuck you
Don't tell me what to do
I don't wanna be like you
He slides into the ring and all the lights in the arena start flashing black and orange really fast as Jayson climbs to a turnbuckle and CABLE ARCANE COMES RUNNING UP BEHIND HIM WITH A BRUTAL SHOULDER BLOCK INTO THE BACK OF JAYSONāS RIGHT KNEE!!! Jayson buckles and falls backwards off the turnbuckle hitting the canvas awkwardly! }Terri Morasco: Jesus!
Vasco Dias: Thatās what Iām talking about! This guy is vicious!
Terri Morasco: The referee needs to get him under control before this goes too far!
{ The referee is checking on Jayson as Cable backs up into the corner with a huge smirk on his face. The crowd is booing him like crazy, Jayson pulls himself up and gives the nod to the referee to call for the bell and Cable explodes out of his corner and connects with a leaping knee to the face of Jayson Matthews sending him backward into the corner! }Vasco Dias: GET HIM! SICK HIM!
Terri Morasco: The match has barely started! Jayson is already hurt!
{ Jayson seems dazed from the back fall and the knee to the face, the referee doesnāt look like he wants this to continue but Cable blasts past him with a running knee lift in the corner followed by a running bull dog out of the corner. Cable is up to his feet and screams out āTHIS IS YOUR FUTURE IMPERIAL CHAMPION!?ā He stomps Jayson hard on the back and then steps over him. āJUST GIVE ME THE BELT NOW!!!ā }Vasco Dias: I agree with Cable Arcane whole heartedly, he should be the Imperial Champion, heās the only rightful Heir after Roberto Verona.
Terri Morasco: Are you kidding me? He attacked Jayson from behind and hasnāt allowed him so much as a second to recover.
Vasco Dias: Heās here to make an example of the supposed next Imperial Champion.
{ Jayson starts to pull himself up with the ropes as Cable lines up his next shot. Cable comes roaring at him looking for a clothes line but Jayson ducks it and connects with the JAYSON MATTHEWS EXPERIENCE!!! }Terri Morasco: JME!!!!
{ Cable slumps to the canvas and Jayson is slow to stand as heās still nursing that right knee, he tries to shake it loose but even that hurts him. He gingerly pulls Cable up to his feet and looks to finish him off with the RibCracker but Cable fires off a shin kick to that right knee, then another and another until he sweeps the leg of Jayson Matthews and sends him down to the mat again. }Terri Morasco: Jayson tried to fight back but-
Vasco Dias: But Cable showed him why he is the next Imperial Champion!
Terri Morasco: He hasnāt won the tournament yet.
Vasco Dias: He will.
{ Cable pulls Jayson up to his feet and just shakes his head before hitting two hard knees to the midsection followed up by a spinning back fist then a spinning heel kick and then he hoists him up into the air for the MTS!!! }Vasco Dias: MADE TO SUFFER!!!!
Terri Morasco: This match would have gone much differently if he didnāt jump Jayson from behind.
{ Cable makes the cover, not even bothering to hook his legs, looking very confident as the referee drops down to make the count. ONE! TWO! THREE!!!! }Vasco Dias: We could be witnessing the future right here, this match could happen again as the finals to crown a new Imperial Champion and Cable Arcane may well be pinning Jayson again.
Terri Morasco: Time will tell but I donāt think Cable will have such an āeasyā time next time.
{ Cable is right up to his feet and begins yelling as the referee tries to grabs his wrist āGIVE ME A REAL CHALLENGE!!!ā }MAIN EVENT
