CORONATION CEREMONY

[Dr Riley Griffiths]

TAG TEAM SPECIAL HOUSE SHOW

{The scene opens up with a highlight package of the tag team action we’ve seen so far in IWF, from the high flying James Gang, to the hard hitting Alpha and Omega, to the drawing of the lethal lottery, to the IWF Tag Team Championships in the studio resting on the tables, with Spike Kane, Rob Diamond, and Doctor Riley Griffiths sitting in the studio ready to go over the house show results}

Riley Griffiths: Welcome ladies and gentlemen, I am the head of the tag team division joined here tonight by the tag team champions themselves; InFamous.

Spike Kane: Whats up Doc?

Rob Diamond: Aww, I was going to say that!

Riley Griffiths: Cute. Regardless, thank you for joining me tonight fellas, as we look at the matches from the tag team showcase house show featuring round one of the tag team lethal lottery. First of which features the seemingly rocky team of Jake Keeton and Alex Jones going up against two youngsters in Seth Evans, and making his debut in IWF the nephew of one of our champions....Christopher Kane.

Spike Kane: I’m excited about seeing Chris perform here. I wasn’t for him starting so young, but he proved me wrong....and hey, I did help train him a bit.

Riley Griffiths: So with that legacy behind him, of his father and uncle, big things were expected from Young K’s debut, let’s take a look at how he got on.

TAG TEAM MATCH

Seth Evans & Christopher Kane Vs Alex Jones and Jake Keeton

{A quick highlight package is shown of the beginning of the match with Christopher Kane’s energy being incredibly high and going toe to toe with Jone and Keeton. The team of Evans and Kane seem to be working well, and the team of Jones and Keeton seem to be on the right page, but it also seems a little competetive between the two}

Spike Kane: Keeton and Jones pose quite a threat, being veterans they have that experience factor.

Rob Diamond: I wonder if the experience factor will come into play?

{We catch up now as Keeton has isolated Chris in the corner and begins to pummel on the youngster, but Young K manages to break out of the corner and hits the ropes, bouncing back with a springboard pele kick to Keeton, before diving to the corner to tag in his partner. Seth Evans comes diving into the ring like a house on fire.}

Rob Diamond: Damn, Seth is sending a message here tonight.

{Seth clotheslines Keeton to the matt, and then dives into Alex Jones with a diving forearm sending the former to the floor outside. Evans takes a second to gloat as the referee leans over to check on Jones when BAM! Keeton clocks Evans in the face with the loaded elbow! Keeton rolls Evans up.....1......2......3!}

Spike Kane: Damn, Keeton picked up the victory for his team with what looked like a loaded elbow!

Rob Diamond: Keeton will do anything he can to win, he’s dangerous....and he’s after that big victory.

Riley Griffiths: So Keeton and Jones advance to the next round of the lethal lottery, and we’ll find out who they’ll be facing either later tonight or tomorrow on Sacrifice. Up next we have HonorBound going up against Mike Laszlo and Deathtrain!

Spike Kane: I feel sorry for Deathtrain....I was in Darkside with him, he’s one hell of a worker....he deserves a better partner than Laszlo. Mr All-Mouth-No-Bite.

TAG TEAM MATCH

Deathtrain & Mike Laszlo Vs HonorBound

{We see a highlight package of the match so far, with both members of HonorBound having a pretty solid outing in the match, the fact that they have trained together and worked so hard to get where they are. Laszlo seems to be struggling a little, but when Deathtrain got into the ring his power really showed}

Spike Kane: This is the dude from Darkside man! You did not screw with this guy.

Rob Diamond: He’s carrying loud mouth, that’s for sure.

{Deathtrain lifted Cable into the air and dropped him with a military press, before running over him, bouncing off the ropes and going for an elbow drop, but as he hit the ropes Laszlo tagged himself in. Deathtrain was not to impressed, but he got out of the ring. Laszlo charged at Cable, but Cable ducked underneath and laid Mike Laszlo down with a seriously powerful lariat, before rolling to a knee and tagging in Gjenrei.}

Rob Diamond: Great switch of momentum there by Cable and Gjenrei, shows how well they work as a team.

Spike Kane: Laszlo really messed up, he shouldn’t have done that....but then, he should never open his mouth either.

{Gjenrei quickly climbs the turnbuckle and nails the Ryoujoku no Ame (Swanton Bomb) on the lifeless body of Mike Laszlo, and covers for the fall …...1.......2........3!}

Rob Diamond: Boom! The teamwork of HonorBound pays off!

Spike Kane: And we see Gjenrei and Cable Arcane going through to the next round next week.

Riley Griffiths: Meaning we’re two teams down, and one match to go. Remember though, two random losers will be picked to team up next week to face one of the winning teams. Meaning Deathtrain, Laszlo, Kane, and Evans could all make it to the end of this. If Joe Everyman’s triumph last week wasn’t a good enough example of that I don’t know what would be. However, up next we have another member of the Kane family in action as Freya takes on Portia Roberts!

SINGLES MATCH

Portia Roberts vs Freya Kane

{We come back to the ring to a highlight package of this Diamonds match up so far. Freya seems to be dominating Portia Roberts quite convincingly and it doesn’t seem to be holding up. So far Freya has been laying into Roberts and out wrestling her, right now she has her locked in a sleeperhold.}

Rob Diamond: Damn Freya is so hot...

Spike Kane: Hey!

Rob Diamond: …..this isn’t news Spike.

Spike Kane: True...but anyway, match wise. Freya was laying down her dominance in the ring, and showing that she;s going to go a long way here in IWF.

{Freya drops the hold and drags Portia to her feet, whipping her off the ropes and taking her down with a tilt-a-whirl backbreak, and a snap elbow drop to follow up. Portia rolls through before Freya clobbers her with a Runs in the Family backfist, before scooping her up and nailing the WDT Driver Beta, dropping down and picking up the pin.....1......2......3!}

Spike Kane: Wow, Freya picks up a very solid victory here. She’s my cousin, and even I’m impressed.

Rob Diamond: She’s always surprising us......maybe one day she’ll admit her love for me?

Spike Kane....ugh.....nah.

Riley Griffiths: So with Freya scoring the victory, we move towards our last match pitching Alpha and Omega against the unlikely team of Davey Ortega and Andrew Jacobsen.

TAG TEAM MATCH

Andrew Jacobsen & Davey Ortega Vs Alpha and Omega

{Another highlight package is shown of the two teams meeting in the ring in different combinations. The standout performers are clearly Davey Ortega and Jackhammer. The power of Jackhammer is pretty clear for all to see, and the genius of Davey Ortega shows through.}

Spike Kane: I’m not exactly a big fan of Ortega, but he’s really got the brains to work in that ring.

Rob Diamond: And Jackhammer is trying again with yet another tag team partner.

{Ken Davison is sending chop after chop to the torso of Davey Ortega right now, before Ortega explodes out of the corner, flipping Davison into the turnbuckle himself and sending a few shots of his own. He then drags Davison out of the corner and whips him off the ropes, hitting the ones at the right angle to himself before...SETTING SUN! Ortega covers! 1.......2.......3!!!}

Spike Kane: Impressive victory there! Looks like Ortega and Jacobsen will be advancing to the next round next we-

Riley Griffiths: Actually, they will not be. Unfortunately Andrew has not been cleared to wrestle anymore....so I made an executive decision to replace Andrew Jacobsen with …..CHRISTOPHER KANE!

Rob Diamond: Oh snap....

Spike Kane: Ortega probably won’t like that....

Riley Griffiths: And they will team up next week to face HonorBound! And to face the winning team of Jake Keeton and Alex Jones, you two will draw from the hat...

Spike Kane: Ok....first....we have.....Deathtrain! Good one buddy.

Rob Diamond: Will team with....Jackhammer! Damn, that is one scary ass team!

Riley Griffiths: There we have it people, Jackhammer and Deathtrain will take on Jake Keeton and Alex Jones. The winners, will face the week after....and whoever wins the match gets to face you two for the titles.

Spike Kane: Fun!

Rob Diamond: We’ll take them all if you want Doc.

Riley Griffiths: We’ll see boys, we’ll see. Well thank you for joining us tonight on a special tag team lethal lottery edition, we hope you enjoy Sacrifice!

[Dark Lord Simon de Montfort]

Monday Night Sacrifice
29th July 2013
Joe Louis Arena, Michigan

The week after Lineage promises to be a spicy affair with two new champions waiting to be crowned. Jessica Reed defied the odds to overcome two veterans in Alysson Gardner and Kathleen Conway to capture the Diamond's Championship whilst Joe Everyman vanquished his demons to become the first ever Imperial Champion, but question marks remain, why did Xander Famularo attack the plucky American hero? Elsewhere the tag team, tournament begins as we also find out why Cyrus Daniels attacked his now former partner. Sacrifice promises to be explosive one again and no doubt more questions will be asked than answered.

{ Fireworks begin to explode as we see the fans going absolutely wild in the Joe Louis Arena, Michigan, various signs supporting and trashing numerous superstars as we go straight into the action tonight. }

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

MATCH
SINGLES MATCH
Ashley Mastrangelo vs Alysson Gardner

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

{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: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall.... First 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.}

Terri Morasca: "Ashley came oh so close to winning the Ruby Championship three-way last week at Lineage. And although she lost, she has to be feeling good about her effort."

Vasco Dias: "No doubt about it. She's improving week-by-week, and I think it's only a matter of time before she's getting her first taste of gold.

Trent Helms: "I remember my first title... It was a Pewter City Gym Badge."

{The first chords for "The Pretender" hit the PA, as images of Alysson in action are shown in slow-motion in the titantron. When the drums kick in, the tron starts flashing slices of action in an incredible speed, as Alysson shows atop the entrance ramp with her motorcycle, forcing the engine so to make a loud roar noise as the crowd cheers on.}

Alison Valance: "And the opponent... From New York, New York.... Alysson Gardner!"

{After that, she jumps off the bike and removes her helmet, looking over the crowd, before throwing up the horns, making an X with her arms. After that, the Big Red rushes down to the ring, sliding in and showing off for the crowd, throwing more cross-arm horns.}

Vasco Dias: "Now here's a woman that I really like. Alysson Gardner is as tough as they come, Terri."

Terri Morasca: "She came up short in the Heiress to the Throne tournament to crown the first ever Diamonds Champion. Now she's out to keep her momentum from stopping dead in its' tracks with a win here tonight."

Trent Helms: "This is Spike's wife, right? I wouldn't want to mess with her."

{The bell's ring echoes throughout the arena, signifying the start of this much anticipated match-up. Gardner shows her aggressive side and makes a beeline for her less experienced opponent. The two lockup in the Collar-in-Elbow position, with Alysson getting the advantage and pulling Mastrangelo's arm into a Hammerlock while maneuvering behind. Alysson wrenches the arm behind Ashley's back before turning and wrenching it off to the side while delivering a side kick to the gut. Gardner keeps hold of the arm while Ashley moves across the ring, stepping to the second and then top rope and flying off, hitting a modified Arm Drag that sends both women to the mat. Both get up immediately, and Ashley charges, hitting a Running Forearm shot, and then another another as both women get up quickly. Aly and Ashley are both up again quickly, with Ashley backing Alysson into the ropes and sending her off. Ashley looks for a jumping Hurricanrana as Alysson rebounds, but the crafty veteran hooks the top rope and stops herself. Ashley lands and her feet and Alysson charges with a Spear, but Ashley immediately jumps in the air again and leapfrogs her, and as Aly rebounds Ashley catches her with a deep Arm Drag and wrenches the arm on the mat.}

Vasco Dias: "This Mastrangelo kid is a quick one. She can move around the ring like nobody's business."

Terri Morasca: "She's well-trained, and getting better all the time."

{While Ashley holds onto her arm, Alysson pushes up to her knees before getting to her feet and using her free arm to grab the top rope and do a front flip, landing on her feet and pulling her arm free, before immediately spinning behind Mastrangelo and rolling her up into the School Boy. 1..... 2. Ashley breaks free of the pin and both women get to their feet, with Alysson connecting with a knee to the solarplexes. Alysson pulls Ashley in and lifts her up, looking for the Body Slam. Ashley slips over the top and grabs Alysson from behind, hitting a Russian Leg Sweep. The young woman immediately tries to transition into an Anaconda Vice hold, but the redhead fights her off with some stiff punches and backs her away. Alysson gets to her feet and sweeps the leg out from under Ashley, dropping her to the mat. Alysson hits the ropes and looks for the Shining Wizard, but Ashley drops down and avoids it, reaching up and catching Gardner from behind and rolling her into a pin. 1.... 2.. Gardner slips free and to her feet like a cat, backing up and hitting the ropes, nailing a Low Dropkick to the side of Mastrangelo's head.}

Terri Morasca: "A dropkick to the skull from Alysson. Everyone knows how dangerous this woman is."

Vasco Dias: "And now she's showing exactly that to Ashley Mastrangelo. You can never take your eyes off of Gardner if you're in the ring with her."

Trent Helms: "Smartest thing you've ever said, Vasco."

{Alysson puts her forearm across Ashley's face and goes for a pin. 1... 2. Ashley kicks out. Alysson gets up a second before Ashley and greets her with a forearm shot to the face. She lifts Mastrangelo up and drops her down across her knee with the Backbreaker, before lifting her up and hitting the Red Tide. Alysson jumps to her feet and stands with her back to Ashley and jumps, hitting a Standing Moonsault before hooking the leg for another pin. 1.... 2... kick out! Alysson guides Ashley to her feet, but the youngster pushes her back and scores with a Chick Kick out of nowhere. Alysson hits the mat and Ashley grabs her legs, looking to turn her over into the Boston Crab. Alysson fights the hold, using her legs to powerfully push Ashley away as she falls through the ropes and to the apron. Gardner gets to her feet and Ashley jumps up, springboarding off the top and hitting her signature Girl's Best Friend Flying Clothesline! She hooks the leg. 1.... 2... Gardner gets the shoulder up.}

Trent Helms: "Who taught her to fly like that? Certainly not Mike Laszlo."

Terri Morasca: "She calls that move the 'Girl's Best Friend', and it would have been just that if it had won her the match right there."

{Mastrangelo helps Gardner to her feet and pulls her into DDT position, but Gardner breaks free and pulls Ashley into a Short-Arm Clothesline. Ashley gets up quickly and is met with a Standing Dropkick to the chin for her efforts. Alysson pulls Mastrangelo to her feet and Irish Whips her towards the corner, but Ashley reverses it and sends Aly into the turnbuckles instead. Ashley runs in, looking for her Running Knee Lift, but Alysson steps out and strikes her with a pointed elbow shot. Ashley backs up, holding her face, and Alysson steps up to the second rope. Ashley charges in again, but Alysson leaps and stomps down onto her back wit the Mushroom Stomp, sending her to the mat. Alysson pulls Ashley to the center of the ring and goes for a pin attempt. 1.... 2... Ashley again refuses to lose. Aly pushes up to her feet and guides Ashley up as well, hitting her with a knee strike before hoisting her up and slamming her down hard with the Scoop Slam. Alysson follows up by climbing to the top turnbuckle and gingerly walking across with gymnast-like skill and stops with her back turned to the ring. She leaps off with her signature Rope Walk Moonsault.... but Mastrangelo gets her knees up!}

Vasco Dias: "Alysson goes for the high risk maneuver and it does not pay off. She's gotta be feeling the pain right now."

Trent Helms: "Leave the showboating to the professionals."

Terri Morasca: "That move is a thing of beauty... if it works."

{Ashley gets to her feet with the adrenaline pumping through her veins as the crowd cheers her on. When Alysson gets to a vertical base, Mastrangelo hits her with a punch... and another... and another as she backs the veteran into the ropes and shoots her off, catching Alysson with a Big Back Body Drop as she rebounds. Alysson is up quickly holding her back, and Ashley leaps and hits a Hurricanrana. Alysson scrambles towards the corner and pulls herself up, and Ashley charges in, this time nailing her Running Knee Lift. She grabs Alysson's head and goes for the Bulldog out of the corner, but Alysson manages to block it and hit a Belly-to-Back Suplex instead. With both women down the referee starts his ten count for them to reach their feet. Both ladies make it up around the same time, with Alysson getting the advantage with a boot to the stomach. Ashley leans forward and Alysson pulls her into DDT position... jumping in the air and hitting her Sattelite DDT!}

Terri Morasca: "This is it!"

{Alysson rolls Ashley over and goes for the pin. 1..... 2..... Ashley gets the shoulder up!}

Trent Helms: "Spoke too soon, didn't you?"

{Alysson sits up with a frustrated at her inability to keep the rookie down, slapping her hands on the mat. She gets to her feet and stomps down across neck of her opponent as Ashley tries to roll to her feet. Gardner heads out through the ropes and climbs to the top, looking down as Ashley stands up. Gardner leaps from the top and flips for the Tornado Scream!.... Ashley dodges out of the way and Alysson lands on her feet with her knee buckling. Ashley grabs Alysson from behind and hooks her up for her finisher, Rejection! Before she can complete the move, Alysson drives both women backfirst into the turnbuckles, crushing Mastrangelo in the corner. Alysson turns around and lifts her opponent up to the top before delivering a punch to keep her stunned. Gardner climbs up to the second turnbuckle as well and looks to be going for the G-Spot! But Mastrangelo hits her with a quick series of punches, loosening her grip on the ropes. Alysson lets go of the ropes and Ashley pushes her down to the mat with her boot, and the veteran lands flat on her back.}

Vasco Dias: "Ashley's on the top and Alysson is flat on her back. She could be ready to end this match!"

Terri Morasca: "She'd better not waste any time!"

{Ashley stands up on the top turnbuckle and steadies herself, looking down at her prone opponent. She leaps from the top and delivers a Tribute Elbow straight to the formidable chest of Alysson Gardner! The crowd pops loudly as Ashley hits her signature Diving Elbow and gets to her feet. She gains her footing before ripping Gardner up from the mat and spinning her around, locking on the Dragon Sleeper. Mastrangelo flips forward into the Cutter, nailing her Rejection finisher! She slowly rolls Alysson over and goes for the pin. 1..... 2.... 3!}

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

{Ashley climbs off the pin and starts to celebrate her victory as her arm is raised by the referee.}

Terri Morasca: "You have to call this victory an upset. Alysson Gardner is one of the most well-known female talents in the world, and Ashley Mastrangelo just defeated her!"

Vasco Dias: "Ashley is moving up the rankings quickly, rebounding after a heart-breaking defeat to take out such a vaunted opponent."

Trent Helms: "Eh. I saw it coming. Mastrangelo's obviously been watching old Trent Helms tapes."

{Ashley climbs to the top turnbuckle and plays to the crowd before jumping back to the mat and raising her arms high in the air. She steps out of the ring and walks up the ramp, high-fiving fans along the way.}

Vasco Dias: "It was a huge win for this young Diamond, and I see big things for her in the future."

Trent Helms: "We're talking Ruby titles... Diamond titles... and if she's lucky, I'll give her an autograph."

Terri Morasca: "...... Ashley Mastrangelo is on the rise!"

{Ashley gets to the top of the ramp and bows to the crowd as we fade to our next adventure.}

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

MATCH
SINGLES MATCH
Mike Machado vs Freakke the Clown

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

{ The opening guitar riffs to “Mustache Man” by Cake blare over the PA system, leading into an explosion of pyrotechnics. "Mediocre" Mike Machado stumbles through the smoke that is remaining, fanning his face and gasping for oxygen. The fans explode – thrilled to see Machado. He’s donning a cheap crown and wielding what looks to be a toy-scepter. He’s draped himself in a purple robe and he walks with his shoulders held high. When he finally reaches the ring, he climbs the stairs, sets his crown down on the turnbuckle and climbs through the ropes – before replacing the crown. }

Mike Machado: “Ladies and Gentleman. Today is a special day, not just for me. I have not accomplished what I have alone. No. You all have been there with me, every single step of the way.”

{ The fans pop, some laughs penetrating the applause. }

Mike Machado: “Today – I consider myself the luckiest man in the world.”

{ More applause, with some mocking laughter underneath. }

Mike Machado: “I promise – that as your elected #1 contender – I will not let you down. Many people ask me: ‘Mike, what can we do about the national debt?’ …and to that I answer… Yes. We. Can.”

{ A huge pop from the fans. }

Mike Machado: “We can, and we will overcome these adversities placed in front of us – the future is bright for all of us! As we face the challenges ahead – just remember one thing…”

{ The drums and bass that belong to the intro of "Serious Japanese", by The Teriyaki Boyz blares throughout the arena. Machado is cut short as Bushido enters, a microphone in his hand. The fans pop for the cruiserweight champ. }

Bushido: “Coronation not for you, fool. You accomplish nothing.”

Mike Machado: “Nothing..? I beat Jake Keeton one-two-three…”

Bushido: “You win nothing. You are joke.”

{ Machado shows a moment of rage, but fights it back. He seems to have been hushed by Bushido, and just stands in the ring waiting for Bushido to continue. }

Bushido: “Stipulation for match is no disqualification – chairs match. Both men start with chair.”

{ The fans pop loudly for the weapons. }

Bushido: “Will be very entertaining to watch clown destroy you.”

{“Serious Japanese” starts up again, and Bushido drops the microphone and walks to the back again. }

Terri Morasco: “We’ve got Machado already in the ring – just waiting on Freakke. It looks like Mike Machado already has a chair in his hand.

Vasco Dias: “I can’t say I’m excited for this match – but I can rest easy knowing that one of these two will probably be hurt.”

{ The music starts up as the lights start to flicker off and green. Freakke comes out of the back and begins to run down to the ring, raising his arms and shouting to the crowd to get them psyched for the match. As he approaches the ring, he takes a short run and leaps up onto apron and grabbing the top rope. Walking over to one corner post, he climbs up and yells to the fans again. After a moment, he hops over the ropes and jogs over to the opposite turnbuckles to repeat his yell for the other side of the crowd. Freakke hops down into the ring and turns to face Machado, who is standing with a steel chair in hand. }

Trent Helms: “Guys – did you know that in the end, Miguel Muchacho was the same person as Mike Machado? Blew my mind.”

Vasco Dias: “Everyone knew that. Literally everyone.”

{ Freakke hops out of the ring and picks up a chair of his own. The bell rings to signify the start of the match. }

Terri Morasco: “And we’re underway. These two know each other well. They’ll do anything to entertain the fans, but I don’t think either one of them has a mean-streak of any kind.

Vasco Dias: “I’m still holding out hope.”

Trent Helms: “I’m expecting a fast-paced match in which at least 5 of my invented high-flying maneuvers are executed”

{ Freakke walks to the middle of the ring, lowers the chair and extends his hand, looking for a hand-shake. Machado walks up to the middle of the ring and looks up to the ramp where Bushido stood hesitantly. }

Terri Morasco: “I’m not sure what’s gotten into Machado – he specifically stated he’d shake Freakke’s hand and they’d put on a show…”

{ Machado slaps Freakke’s hand away, and before the clown can react Machado smashes him directly in the face with the chair. Freakke slumps to the ground immediately – taken off-guard by the blow. The fans are stunned. They don’t go as far to boo Machado, but they’re obviously shocked. }

Vasco Dias: “Yes!”

Trent Helms: “This one may be over before it even begins!”

Vasco Dias: “Still not quick enough for me…”

{ Freakke is laid out unconscious. Machado walks up to him and rolls him over with his foot.} }

Terri Morasco: “Freakke is out of it. While completely legal – this was certainly out of character for Machado.”

{ Machado hesitates and frowns slightly, then eventually lays on top of Freakke for a cover. The ref counts, but it’s just semantics at this point. }

{ 1…2…..3! }

Vasco Dias: “And not a single moonsault was given that day!”

{ The bell rings and Machados music starts to play – but instead of celebrating he bends down to check on Freakke – who is still out. He motions for help and soon the medics are on the job, trying to revive Freakke as best they can. Machado stands in the corner nervously before he rakes his hand through his hair and heads to the back. }

Terri Morasco: “We’ll take a short break here while they work on Freakke – but this doesn’t look good.”

Vasco Dias: “No it doesn’t look good, it looks great!”

Trent Helms: “Shocking turn of events here from Mike Machado – it looked to me like Bushido really got into his head.”

SEGMENT
An explanation?

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

As the clicking and didgeridoo of 'Sixes and Sevens' by Ash Dargan kick in, Cyrus Daniels walks to the ring with a purpose. He has a length of chain wrapped around his fist, dangling from his left hand. By his side in a simple red and gold t-shirt with the IWF logo on it, jeans and a light brown leather vest and corked hat is IWF's head physician, Nicole Kingsley. Cyrus looks out at the sea of free people around the arena with a noticeable look of disdain. Cyrus uses the ropes to pull himself onto the apron and step over the ropes and into the ring. Nicole uses the steps as Cyrus walks to the centre of the ring, looking at the booing crowd. Nicole claps his entrance and looks at him rather lustfully as Cyrus walks over and grabs a microphone from the stage hand on the outside. Cyrus walks to the middle of the ring as the crowd continues to boo.

Vasco Dias: Here is the man who snapped at Lineage, turning his back on his long time partner, Stephen Kingsley...

Terri Morasco: Look at Nicole, she's out here mocking her own brother...the only thing we don't know is why...

Trent Helms: Looks like we're about to find out.

Cyrus is chewing gum and smirks, soaking in every moment of the negative reaction he is getting as he raises the microphone to his lips and his music fades away.

Cyrus Daniels: Six hundred and ninety-one thousand, two hundred seconds. Eleven thousand, five hundred and twenty minutes. One hundred and ninety-two hours. Eight days. That is how long I have truly been free, truly been liberated. These last eight days have been the best of the eight hundred and twenty nine days of a regained freedom I have lived so far. Nobody except The Crocodile Hunter is asking themselves why I did what I did at Lineage. Everybody else knows, even all of these idiots here tonight and the millions watching at home know exactly why I put ya outta my misery last Sunday.

The crowd boo.

Cyrus Daniels: They all know you were, are and always have been the weak link between the two of us mate. I've heard it ever since I came here with ya, ya promised me that you'd get your shit together in this new place, just like ya promised me that joining the Church of Thor in N-C-Dubya would put us on the map in that place, and I gave ya chance afta chance afta chance ta live upta your promises. Afta ya couldn't, my eyes were opened, finally I realised that everybody in the back who told me afta every single one of our matches that I once again carried your ass were right. Without ya holdin' me down Kingsley, I realised I could do so much more. I proved it a few weeks ago when I came out here and brought The God Of Xtreme to his knees by myself. I don't need ya anymore mate...some would say I never did...

Cyrus pauses as he unwraps the chain around his fist.

Cyrus Daniels: I know ya are not here tonight, rest up Hunter. I know your watchin' as ya sit at home. Look, each link forged in this chain represents a link which has bound us for years now, each link is weaker than the last, and the weakest link has yet to be attached, That's you, Crocodile Hunter...and ta really move on, I havta break this chain, what do ya say Crocodile Hunter, ya, me, a length of chain at Legacy?

Cyrus passes the microphone to Nicole and the boos get louder.

Nicole Kingsley: Lineage was a night of wake up calls, for ya dear brother, for me, and for Cy. Cy wants to cut all ties with ya and so do I Stephen, at Legacy if ya accept, that is exactly what we will do...I feel sorry for ya brother, ya went to jail for 'rasslin nature's monsters but now ya stand at the threshold of facin' the most natural monster of 'em all. What will ya do? Fight or flight?

Vasco Dias: The challenge has been laid down for Legacy...

Terri Morasco: Daniels wants a chain match against his former tag team partner...

Tent Helms: Cyrus wants to break the weakest link of them all...

"Sixes and Sevens" hits and Cyrus and Nicole start to leave the ring, with Nicole dropping te microphone with a smile and a twinkle in her eye.

MATCH
SINGLES MATCH
Ryan Blade vs Caleb Lockwood

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

{The intro to Adelitas Way's "The Collapse" begins, and the lights in the arena flicker at a rapid pace. When the music hits its' stride, Ryan Blade steps out onto the stage in a flash. He walks to each side of the stage and looks out at the crowd, before his girlfriend, Chelsea joins by his side. He points at his cheek and leans to the side, allowing her to plant a kiss on his cheek. He looks out to the crowd and smirks before heading down the ramp.}

Alison Valance: Ladies and Gentlemen the following contest is set for one fall and will be contested under Man of Steel rules. Introducing first, being accompanied by Chelsea from Virginia Beach, VA… RYAN BLADE!!!

{Ryan and Chelsea walk down the entrance ramp, looking cocky while doing so. Blade goes up the ringside stairs and walks over on the apron, pulling the second and third ropes apart. Chelsea steps into the ring, and Ryan quickly follows, jumping over the top rope and immediately climbing to the second turnbuckle, looking out to the crowd. Chelsea applauds while Ryan looks out into the sea of fans, before jumping down and removing his ring jacket, while Chelsea fans herself off. Ryan gets another quick good luck kiss before helping his girlfriend out of the ring, and turning back towards the ring as he waits for the match to start.}

Terri Morasco: Our young, impressive Man of Steel Champion looks ready for action.

Alison Valance: And his opponent, hailing from Oakland, CA, CALEB LOCKWOOD!!!

{The drumbeat of "Rise Above" sounds over the PA, and the sound of harsh guitars ushers in Caleb Lockwood. He smirks, bouncing on the soles of his feet and shouting at the crowd to get them fired up. He fixes his gaze on the ring and grins, charging down. Lockwood leaps into the ring, kipping up and playing to the crowd. His music dies down as he moves into his corner, awaiting the bell.}

Vasco Dias: Here we go, very different styles from these two guys.

Terri Morasco: It should be an exciting match up.

Trent Helms: Not as exciting as a Trent Helms match though.

{The bell sounds and Ryan Blade shoots a cocky smirk at Caleb Lockwood who rolls out of the corner and bounces from side to side. Lockwood circles around Blade and throws out a few fancy spinning kicks that Ryan easily avoids. Blade nods his head as if to say “Ok” and hits a spinning back roundhouse right to the gut of Caleb that doubles him over. The Man of Steel hooks Lockwood up and snaps him over with a Suplex and floats over right into a mounted position before applying an armbar.}

Trent Helms: Helmslock! He’s going to tap.

Vasco Dias: Blade looking to end this one early with a beautiful armbar.

Terri Morasco: Caleb Lockwood is not used to be grounded, especially this early in a match up.

Trent Helms: Are you two ignoring me?

{Lockwood grabs the bottom rope and the referee forces the break and Blade surprisingly does so cleanly. Lockwood is back to his feet and tries to shake off the discomfort from the armbar. Blade charges with a clothesline attempt but Caleb ducks. Blade fires a back elbow into the face of his opponent before sending him over with a snapmare and then snapping a kick to the lower back. Ryan places his knee in the lower back of Lockwood and applies a rear chin lock. Caleb struggles and tries to pull Blade’s hands from under his chin but they’re locked tight and Ryan know it. He begins talking trash to Lockwood who’s movement begin to slow as the ref checks his arm.}

Terri Morasco: Ryan Blade trying to coax a tapout from Caleb Lockwood.

Vasco Dias: I don’t know that I’ve ever seen someone submit from a simple rear chin lock but if anyone can do it, Ryan Blade can. This kid can do it all, I’m telling you.

{Caleb’s arm drops once and the ref holds up one finger, it drops again and the ref holds up another finger. The ref lifts Lockwood’s arm a third time and just as it’s about to drop Caleb thrusts his fist in the air which gets a pop from the fans. Lockwood tries to stand with the hold still locked in and Blade allows him up before changing the chinlock to a side headlock. Caleb, still locked in the headlock, springs off the ropes and flips backwards over Ryan forcing him to break. Lockwood spins him around and attempts a spinning kick but Blade catches his foot and drops him with an Enziguiri. Blade gloats and jaws at the fans while Lockwood tries to stand, as he’s in the center of the ring doubled over Ryan Blade hits the ropes and comes off planting Lockwood face first into the mat with The Derek Vinyard Special.}

Vasco Dias: He hit it perfectly, it’s going to be hard for Caleb to answer a 10 count.

Trent Helms: It would be hard for anyone, except me.

Terri Morasco:I’d honestly love to see you try.

{The referee begins to count 1…2…Caleb still doesn’t move and Blade has his arms raised in the air in victory 3…4…5… Slowly Lockwood begins to stir and the fans cheer for him 6…7…He crawls towards the rope but they’re too far 8…9…KNIP UP! The fans pop loudly as somehow Caleb Lockwood found it in himself to burst to his feet after having his face driven into the mat and Ryan Blade is in complete shock. Blade charges right into a corkscrew back elbow from Lockwood that staggers him but doesn’t take him off his feet. Ryan hits the ropes and nails Shot Through The Heart taking Caleb down once again. Rather than waiting to see if Lockwood will stay down Blade pulls him to his knees where he locks in The Choke Job!}

Terri Morasco: This is it, there’s no escape this time.

Vasco Dias: Nope he’s done, signed, sealed, delivered.

Trent Helms: I’m yours?

{Lockwood puts up a valiant effort but eventually just before he loses consciousness he frantically taps the mat and the referee pulls Blade off and Ryan stands up where the ref raises his arm but he just jerks it away. Robert Quinn walks out on the ramp and begins clapping for Blade who stares him down, unsure why he’s even out there as the show goes to commercial.}

MATCH
Fatal Fourway - Fouth Heir to the Throne Entrant
EverySense & Tifa Heafy vs InFamous & Ayla St. James

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

"1.....2....1...2....1,2,3,4!"

{With that, the song "Love Bites(But so do I)" by the band Halestorm begins to play. Ayla struts out, doing a little shake with the song, then struts down to the ring, throwing her arms out wildly, basking in all the attention. She nimbly leaps up onto the ring apron, and turns, hopping up to sit on the top rope. She blows a kiss in a sweeping arc to the crowd, then lets herself fall backwards, landing on her feet in the ring. She bounces around excitedly when Villain by Theory of a Deadman hits the PA as both Rob Diamond and Spike Kane step through the curtain. The crowd has a mixed reaction for both members of InFamous as the two just over see the arena before heading down the ramp. Spike walks up the steps as Rob rolls in under the ropes. Both men take to a corner of the ring, Rob reaches high up into the air and tells the world to SUCK IT! Spike just glares at the fans. They jump down and high five Ayla before waiting for the match to start.}

Terri Morasco: What a dream team this is! Ayla has been nothing but stellar since joining IWF and InFamous have been nothing short of dominant.

Vasco Dias: One hell of a match at Lineage against Criminal Intent and as we can see it was a successful defense as well.

Trent Helms: Have history with all these people. Hall of Fame team right there but man are they facing some stiff competition tonight.

{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 fans.}

Terri Morasco: Tifa Heafy seems to have a fanbase growing among the masses. Her energetic attitude is infectious and I for one can't wait to see her develop further here in IWF.

{The haunting strum of an acoustic guitar ushers in Mark Collie's, "In Time" as the ring is illuminated with a black light.}

"I can tell what you're thinking,
All your doubts and fears.
And if you look in my eyes, in time you'll find
The reason I'm here."

{The final words echo into the ether and the song transitions into the organs that intro "Destroy the World Around Me", by Mushroomhead. A wave of fog has begun to blanket the stage, traversing towards the crowd and ring. An audience stands still in anticipation, some frightened others enthralled. A hooded Sense raises up from underneath the stage, staring out into a raucous audience that love to hate the man with no fear. Once risen, Sense removes the hood and then raises his arms into the air as pillars of fire explode one after the other across the stage. Sense steps through the flames as the harsh drums, guitars and vocals blare throughout the arena. He stomps his way down the ramp to the beat of the drums, tearing off his sleeveless jean jacket and hood along the way. Sense stalks around the corner of the ring before grabbing the top rope and pulling himself up and over and into the squared circle, releasing a primal scream that brings the fans into a near riot.}

Vasco Dias: Lex Sense was my pick to win the Heir to the Throne tournament and I still say he was robbed.

Terri Morasco: Robbed? Sense said it himself that Joe was better on that night. He doesn't make excuses so why do you?

{Live To Rise by Soundgarden starts blasting over the PA system and the crowd explodes into a loud and excited roar. Pyros are going off on the stage all over the place. Joe Everyman then comes out onto the stage, ecstatic as ever as he holds his Imperial Title high up into the sky. Joe walks down the ramp while holding his arms up towards the crowd, who cheer for Joe with deafening sound. Joe then comes to the end of the ramp and does a standing jump onto the apron. Joe then climbs into the ring through the ropes and looks around in the crowd and hold up his arm. Then loud blue pyros shoot from the ring posts. Joe fistbumps Sense and Tifa as they begin conversing with one another.}

Trent Helms: It's good to finally see Joe Everyman live up to his own hype. This company's stock just went up.

Terri Morasco: It was truly a tearful moment when Joe was able to hold Sense down for the three and become the first ever Imperial Champion but now they have to work as a team. I don't think they can co-exist.

Vasco Dias: Why not? They've done it before and Sense even saved Joe's night last night when Xander set his aims on the champ. I think we are going to see an upset here tonight.

{The two teams involved in this match discuss the topic of who will begin. Sense becomes adamant of starting and upon seeing this Diamond steps up for his team. The bell rings and Sense lumbers forward with no strategy whatsoever. Rob jumps out of the way of two massive arms attempting to wrap themselves around his waist. Rob turns around ready to strike with a stiff kick to the big man's knee but Sense rears back with a back elbow that connects with the side of Rob's head. Rob stumbles a few feet away from Lex who shoots out with a Double Leg Takedown, lifting Rob high above his head before bringing him slamming back down to the mat. The almost Spinebuster-like maneuver knocks the air out of Diamond and downs him long enough for Sense to mount hm and initialize a ground and pound. Rob attempts to cover but blow after blow is striking him down until Spike rushes into the ring with a running boot to the side of Sense's head. Sense is dazed long enough for Rob to wriggle free from under him, rising to his feet with a scissor kick aimed at Sense only Lex is able to catch the leg from a kneeling position and then levels Rob with a rising clothesline.}

Terri Morasco: Rob can't seem to get one over on Sense. Lex looks more observant than he did at Lineage.

Vasco Dias: He looks just as deadly now as he did then, Terri.

Trent Helms: Don't count Rob out just yet. If there is a will he will find a way.

{Sense looks down at Rob and nudges at his face with the sole of his boot, turning to face Spike with an unceremonious backhand followed by a smirk that causes the God of Xtreme to want to step into the ring but the ref gets in the way. Sense proceeds to rip Rob off the mat and then Choke Tosses him across the ring to his corner. Sense waves Spike on but as Spike is reaching in for the tag Sense takes a few steps back and then slaps Tifa on the shoulder. Tifa looks surprised as she didn't expect to be tagged in while Joe stares at Lex, questioning his actions.}

Vasco Dias: Can't blame Lex for that. The guy needs a breather.

Terri Morasco: He was in control of the situation. That tag doesn't make sense. No pun intended.

{Tifa hops into the ring excitedly as Ayla looks to Spike as if asking if it's okay. He nods and the veteran soap opera star steps into the ring and begins circling the young up and comer. Tifa inches closer before lashing out with a forearm that connects. Ayla, however, will not be downed by one blow as she lashes out with a forearm of her own. The two ladies trade blows until Tifa wraps her arm around Ayla's head and locks in a Headlock. The hold doesn't last long as Ayla counters with a lift into a Backdrop. The back of Tifa's head lands hard on the mat as Ayla hurries to her feet and grabs Heafy by her legs. st. James attempts to turn Tifa over into a Boston Crab it seems but the feisty Kane protege bends her knees down and then kicks Ayla off of her. Ayla falls flat on her back but hurries to her feet only to find Tifa waiting with an "Inside Cradle" pin and 1... 2... 2.9AYLA KICKS OUT!}

Vasco Dias: Didn't expect such a technical display from Tifa. Quite impressive.

Trent Helms: You know what's not impressive? Your face!

Terri Morasco: Talk about a close call. The pin not the comment about your face. That was pretty much dead on.

{Ayla rolls back to her feet as does Tifa, both ladies ready to continue the action until a paw reaches out and slaps Tifa on the back. The tag is made as Sense steps over the ropes and back into the ring. Tifa is once again surprised only this time it isn't the good kind while Joe continues to question Sense's motives.}

Terri Morasco: Once again Sense slows down the match for whatever reason.

Trent Helms: Maybe he saw something in the future that he needs to prevent?

{Spike has no qualms as he rushes into the ring and immediately goes on the attack, hitting stiff kick after stiff kick to the sides of Sense's knees. Sense is being chopped down like a giant oak tree but the fight remains in his favor with a clubbing blow to the shoulder and neck area of Spike. Kane falls down to his knees and then gets kneed right in the face. Sense reaches down with a meaty paw, wrapping it securely around Spike's throat with a Blatant Choke. The ref begins his count but Sense shoves him away as he lifts Spike high into the air, now with both hands wrapped around his throat. The Standing Double Armed Chokehold is on tight as Spike's feet dangle beneath him. Joe could be heard shouting at Sense to let go as Spike swings away at Lex but the strikes seem to do nothing. It's not until Rob Diamond comes running with a front dropkick to the knees that Sense finally let's go.}

Vasco Dias: Why would Rob interfere such technical perfection?

Trent Helms: Probably because he wants to win.

{Spike drops in a heap as Rob continues the assault with punch after punch to the big man's face. Sense eventually high knees Rob in the gut and pushes him away but as he does Spike comes up from behind him with a rushing forearm. Spike begins taking his shots on Sense but Lex continues to fight back as he digs a headbutt into Spike's eye staggering him away. Spike backpedals and Sense looks to be going for a big boot but Rob comes up from the side with a "Fist Full o'Democracy" (Spinning Backfist)! Sense is staggered to a knee where he is then taken off his feet completely with a "Bloody Sunday" (Brogue Kick)! The crowd goes wild as Spike hooks the leg and 1... 2... SENSE THROWS SPIKE OFF OF HIM!}

Terri Morasco: Complete unity from the tag champs there able to work together to drop Sense.

Trent Helms: Sure did but it didn't get them the win.

Vasco Dias: I question Joe's heart. Where was Sense's back-up in that exchange?

{The ref gets involved and pushes Rob out of the ring as Spike has begun bringing Sense back to his feet. Upon the ref's distraction with Rob, Sense uppercuts Spike in the lower regions and then proceeds to short arm him into "The Prediction" (Black Hole Slam)! Sense doesn't go for the pin though, instead he tags in Joe and tells the champ to take the cheap victory. Joe is dumbfounded as he doesn't know what to do. Tifa finds herself conflicted as well. Sense just smirks as temptation worms its way into Joe and it looks like he is going for the pin but instead brings Spike back to his feet and then whips him into his corner where Rob immediately makes the tag. Sense does a "so be it" gesture but the smirk never leaves his face.}

Terri Morasco: What a classy move by the champion there. Finally the crowd get to see their champ in action.

Vasco Dias: You see class, I see idiocy.

Trent Helms: Are you staring into a mirror, Vasco?

{Rob gives Joe a respectful nod before colliding in the middle of the ring in an Elbow to Collar. Both men are jockeying for position when out of nowhere, Sense blindsides Rob with a big boot to the side of the head. The crowd boos as they hoped to see the newly crowned champion going at it with one half of the tag champs. Tifa hops into the ring and tries to push Sense with her small hands but Lex doesn't even move but when Joe shoves him he does backpedal.}

Terri Morasco: What is Sense's problem?

Vasco Dias: Sense's problem? Don't you mean Joe's?

{Joe has his finger digging into the chest of Sense as he tells him to back off with Tifa at his side. Suddenly, Rob sees an opening and takes a page out of Falcon's playbook by pulling Joe into a Schoolboy Pin! The ref drops and 1... 2... TIFA GOES TO BREAK IT UP AND SHE DOES BUT SENSE DECIDES TO SLAP THE OFFICIAL UPSIDE THE HEAD AT THE SAME TIME AND GETS HIS TEAM DQ'ED!}

Terri Morasco: What the hell just happened?

Trent Helms: Sense lost his mind.

Vasco Dias: He was only trying to stop the count. It was probably an accident.

{Both Tifa and Joe are on their knees stunned as InFamous' music blares through the speakers. The crowd is booing in unison and it's all directed at Sense. Rob and Spike actually plead with the ref to re-start the match but there's nothing doing. Sense looks apologetically at Joe but something about is insincere. Sense simply falls back into the ropes and flips back to his feet at ringside as all the participants of this match glare at Sense who continues up the ramp, smirking briefly before disappearing backstage.}

[Dark Lord Simon de Montfort]

SEGMENT
What the hell was that!?

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

{We head backstage where Sense is heading towards a specific location. Joe comes up from behind and turns him around.}

Joe Everyman: What the hell was that out there?

Lex Sense: I lost my head. It's difficult for me sometimes to keep my cool. I lashed out and because of it we lost our match. I didn't mean to and I'm sorry.

{Joe continues to stare, wanting to be mad but wanting to believe his friend as well.}

Joe Everyman: Don't worry about it, man. We got a Coronation Ceremony later and I don't want to go into it arguing with you.

{Joe pats Sense on his massive shoulder and Lex looks at his hand with a scowl before shifting into a smile.}

Lex Sense: Of course, old friend. Tonight is your night.

{Joe continues on his way and leaves Sense standing there as his smile switches back into a scowl.}

Lex Sense: Tonight is your night.

{Lex repeats the words only the tone is much darker.}

MATCH
SINGLES MATCH
Eternity vs 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.

Alison Valance: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Making her way down to the ring, from Brooklyn Park, Minnesota...EMMA DANIELSON!

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.

Vasco Dias: Here comes one of the most powerful Diamonds on the roster today...

Terri Morasco: And she's going to face one of the most deranged...

Trent Helms: This is a match of royal proportions, Eternity hangs out with Princesses and Emma is the Queen of Extreme...

The lights go out completely leaving the arena pitch black and the crowd in anticipation.

Vasco Dias: Who turned out the lights?

Terri Morasco: My guess would be this is more games by Eternity...

Trent Helms: Or it could just be a power failure...

The lights come back on and Eternity is already in the ring, face to face with Emma Danielson. Eternity cocks her head to the side and looks rather confused at the sight of Emma. Eternity smiles as her confusion is mirrored in Emma's face. Eternity straightens her head and curtsies in front of Emma. Emma has had enough of the antics and strikes with the first blow prompting Diamond's referee Lucy Adams to ring the bell.

Vasco Dias: And here we go!

Terri Morasco: Emma is on fire here!

Trent Helms: Don't give Eternity any ideas, Terri...

Emma continues her assault with stiff shots to Eternity's face, forcing her back from the centre of the ring to the ropes. Emma then whips Eternity across the ring and as Eternity is rebounding, Emma goes for the early finish by attempting a Brooklyn Hangover, which Eternity manages to duck, and as Emma turns around, Eternity latches onto Emma's arm taking her immediately to the ground and locking in her Dying Wish submission hold.

Terri Morasco: One immediate big move attempt is countered by another between these two women.

Vasco Dias: This is very smart, Emma is not well versed in the art of submission wrestling and her disrespect for Eternity has backfired here...

With nowhere to go in the centre of the ring, Emma taps out immediately.

Trent Helms: That was almost as quick and painful as one of my legendary anal probings!

Alison Valance: Here is your winner...ETERRRRNNNITTTY!

The referee tries to get Eternity to release tho hold, telling her she's won the match, Eternity simply laughs as Emma is screaming, still locked in the hold, she torques it back at a most unnatural angle, and Emma yells out in agony.

Vasco Dias: The arm is not supposed to bend like that!

Terri Morasco: Let her go! You won the damn match!

Eternity finally lets go as EMTs and trainers storm the ring as Lucy throws up an X sign. Emma is rolling about on the canvas, cradling her arm.

Emma Danielson: I think it's broken! OH GOD I THINK IT'S BROKEN!

Terri Morasco: I think Emma is seriously injured here!

Vasco Dias: I'm no doctor, but that arm has to be broken!

Trent Helms: We're just getting word that officially that match only lasted 47 seconds!

Eternity leaves the ring and begins to laugh hysterically as she walks backwards up the ramp, enjoying the aftermath of the possibly career ending injury she's just inflicted upon her opponent.

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

SEGMENT
Proud?

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

Terri Morasco: Ladies and Gentlemen I'm being told that we have some exclusive footage recorded last night at IWF's house show event involving Jake Keeton and Alex Jones. Let's take a look.

{We go to backstage footage after the house show has ended to find Jake Keeton sitting on an equipment case checking his phone. After a few moments Keeton slowly turns his head as we find Alex Jones standing with his arms over his chest.

Jake Keeton: Yes?

{Alex shakes his head and smirks at Keeton.}

Alex Jones: You're proud of what happened?....the win that you tarnished?....

{Keeton tilts his head as Alex keeps going}

Alex Jones: I don't take shortcuts Jake. And that "special" elbow pad of yours is a big shortcut. I don't like how you used it against Brad, I don't like how you used it against Seth and Chris.....I don't get it Keeton, we didn't need it and you don't need to use stuff like that....

{Keeton stays quiet as Alex starts to get angrier}

Alex Jones: ANSWER ME DAMNIT. WHY?.......All I heard about coming into IWF was how great of a guy Jake Keeton is. Brad Kane sang your praises as a friend while telling the world I was the devil.....what the hell is wrong with you?

Jake Keeton: What’s wrong with me Alex is that I don’t have a choice. I did what had to be done to ensure we won and that’s what happened. I’m not proud of it but I couldn’t risk losing again.

{Keeton jumps down off the equipment case and looks up at the taller man.}

Jake Keeton: And as long as we’re “partners” you can expect me to continue doing what ever it takes to win whether you’re happy with it or not. I guaranteed our victory tonight, and I won’t allow you in your quest to right all the wrongs you’ve done in the past to ruin my life because you wanna be the good guy now.
{Jake turns and walks away leaving an angry Alex Jones just standing there.}

MAIN EVENT
SINGLES MATCH
Xander Famularo vs Doc

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

Vasco Dias: Next up we’ve got two men coming off two huge matches at Lineage, Xander Famularo taking on Doc!

Terri Morasco: Doc is probably one of the most dangerous men on the roster right now, what with his war with Angel.

Vasco Dias: And Xander is probably one of the most gifted men, this match should be both brutal and intense.

{ 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. 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 Morasco: Doc took on two men at the same time just one week ago and scored a huge upset victory in that match, tonight he’s looking to keep that momentum going.

Vasco Dias: He’s got an uphill battle against the would be Heavy Weight Champion in Xander Famularo. Even on his worst day he’s still one of the best I’ve ever seen.

{ Mother by Danzig begins to play, Xander walks to the ring and awaits the match to start. }

Vasco Dias: Xander looks twice as focused as usual.

Terri Morasco: He wants to get back to his winning ways bad, probably just as bad as Doc wants to keep his streak going.

Vasco Dias: Two gladiators, one victor, let’s get this match started already!

{ The bell sounds and Doc dances out of his corner as Xander slowly moves in the other direction, sizing him up. Xander begins to slowly round his way inward as Doc continues to move around, shifiting his stance. Xander moves in to lock up with Doc but Doc gets behind Xander, Xander spins with a forearm aimed at Doc's head but Doc gets under it and sends a shin kick right to the mid section of Xander. Doc follows his kick up with a quick European upper cut and starts to hit several knife edge chops, after each chop Xander demands that Doc hit him ahrd. After the fifth one Xander fires back with one of his own that knocks Doc onto his backside. Doc gets right back to his feet and Xander goes for a clothes line. Doc gets under it, spring boards off the ropes and looks for a splash but Xander catches him in mid air and sends him into the mat with a hard spine buster! }

Vasco Dias: Ouch! Doc is quick and agile but Xander is just a brute!

Terri Morasco: You can't play into Xander's strong points here, you've got to out manuever him and hope you can wear him down.

{ Doc is quick to get back to his feet and Xander is on him with a lock up and presses him back first into the corner. From there Xander begins to hit several back elbows that leave Doc pressed against the turnbuckles. Xander hits five hard back elbows and then starts driving his knee into the mid section of Doc before grabbing him by the neck and sending him flying out of the corner with a big choke toss. As Doc tries to get to his feet Xander nails a big running knee to the side of Doc's head. Xander peels Doc off the mat and sends him into the ropes. Xander looks for a back body drop but Doc instead kicks Xander right in the chest. Xander backs up and Doc hits the ropes and comes back with a running drop kick! Xander stumbles into the ropes and Doc is right up with a running cross body that sends both men spilling over the top rope and to the outside! }

Terri Morasco: There we go! That is exactly what Doc needs to do, keep Xander off his game and hopefully off his feet!

{ Doc is up and rolls right back into the ring. Xander tries to roll in but Doc starts stomping him repeatidly on the mat. Doc begins dropping several elbows over Xander's back, getting right up and hitting one after the other. Doc gets up as the fans reach the count of six. Xander tries to get up but Doc hits the ropes and comes back with a running boot to the side of the head that leaves Xander laying across the second rope. Doc grabs the ropes and places one boot at a time onto Xander's back and steps up on top of him, driving Xander's throat into the second rope. Doc uses the ropes to bounce up and down, depriving Xander of oxygen as the ref counts to four. Doc jumps off, runs across the ring and comes back and just jumps right onto Xander's back with all his weight and drives him down again! }

Vasco Dias: Doc is just being brutal right here, keeping Xander off his feet and depriving his brain of some much needed oxygen.

Terri Morasco : He's playing a little dirty but it honestly maybe the only way he can win this match.

{ Doc smirks as he steps out onto the apron. He gets a little running start and then leg drops Xander's head on the second rope and smiles as Doc lands feet first on the floor. The fans boo him heavily as he turns around and just drives the points of his fingers into the throat of Xander. Xander finally rolls off the ropes and grips his throat as Doc jumps back up onto the apron and climbs into the ring. Doc drives his heel into the back of Xander's head and then runs for the ropes, he comes back with another elbow drop onto the back of Xander's head. Feeling confident, Doc heads to the corner and climbs up to the top rope. He looks down on Xander and just smirks as he leaps off with Air Glasgow! XANDER MOVES! Doc crashes and burns on the mat. }

Vasco Dias: HIGH RISK! NO REWARD!

{ Xander gets to his feet rather slowly as Doc tries to spring back into action but Xander turns and nails the WIDOWMAKER!!!! Doc falls back onto the mat and looks like he is completely knocked out. Xander stumbles over and makes the cover. ONE! TWO! DOC GETS HIS FOOT ON THE ROPES! Xander peels Doc off the mat, hoists him up and runs for the corner with the HARPOON!!! Doc bounces head first off of the turn buckle and seemingly on instinct alone rolls out of the ring and onto the floor where he just lays down. Xander still staggers and grips at his throat, struggling to breath right as he steps through the ropes and to the outside. He grabs Doc by the back of the head and pulls him up. He picks Doc up in a bear hug and drives him hard into the ring post! }

Vasco Dias: Xander going after Doc's back here, Doc well known for his many surgeries.

Terri Morasco: Looks like Xander's done playing and wants to just hurt Doc.

{ Xander turns and hoists Doc up into almost a choke slam position and just drives him hard into the padded floor. Xander shakes his head as he grabs Doc and pulls him off the mat. He rolls Doc into the ring and follows after him. Doc tries to get up but Xander is on top of him with a big clubbing blow. He pulls Doc up and throws him hard into the corner and runs in with a big shoulder right to the mid section of Doc. Xander hoists Doc onto the top rope and into muscle buster position and pulls him off and nails it with perfection! Xander covers Doc. ONE TWO! THRE-KICK OUT! }

Vasco Dias: You've got to be kidding me? How did Doc kick out of that?

Terri Morasco: Doc is endlessly resourceful and resiliant. As we saw just last week when he defeated two men in a no DQ match.

{ Xander shakes his head and pulls Doc up. He almost laughs before whipping Doc with all of his strength into the ropes, on the rebound Xander hits a big back body drop! Doc arches his back as Xander pulls him up, bear hugs and then sends him flying with an over head rellease belly to belly supelx! Doc crashes hard and rolls to the ropes. Xander comes after him but Doc grips the ropes and the ref pushes Xander back. Doc stands up and tries to catch a moment or two before Xander comes at him. Xander grabs for Doc but Doc rakes his eyes and slips behind Xander and grabs him for an inverted neck breaker! Doc gets ripe up, grabs the ropes and spring boards off the second rope with a leg drop across the throat of Xander! Doc gets up and heads to the top rope and flies off with AIR GLASGOW! And connects, he covers. ONE! TWO! THR-KICK OUT! Doc is up, Xander follows him but Doc hits the ropes and comes up from behind with a shoulder block to the back of Xander's knees! The big man stumbles down onto one knee and Doc hits the ropes and comes back with a drop kick right to the face! }

Terri Morasco: Doc is right back in this!

{ Doc pulls Xander up and drives him into the ropes with a shoulder to the mid section. Doc unleashes some hard knife edge chops then steps up onto the ropes and drives ten right hands into the head of Xander! Doc looks around before hooking Xander by the neck and pushing off the second rope and driving Xander's head hard down into the mat with a DDT! Doc nips up to his feet and heads to the corner. He starts to stomp his foot as Xander works his way to his feet. Xander is up and Doc flies out of the corner with the GENECIDE KICK! }

Vasco Dias: GENECIDE KICK! It could be over right here!

{ Doc goes for the cover. ONE! TWO! THRE-KICK OUT! }

Terri Morasco: Xander just barely got the shoulder up!

{ Doc looks a little upset as he gets to his feet. Xander struggles to get up and Doc comes off the ropes with a running bull dog and drives Xander's face into the mat again. Doc jumps onto Xander's back and pulls him up into a Steiner Recliner! Doc arches back as far as he can and tries to seperate Xander's head from his shoulders. Xander lets out a pretty loud yell and tries to get to his feet but Doc has him. Eventually Doc lets go of the move and helps Xander up to his feet. Doc pushes Xander into the ropes and sends him flying across the ring. Doc runs after him, Xander rebounds and Doc hits a flying forearm! Xander staggers and Doc hits a kick to the back of Xander's knees that knocks him down again. Doc hits the ropes and comes flying across the ring and Xander springs off the mat with a SPEAR! }

Vasco Dias: Xander with a spear from out of no where!

Terri Morasco: A bit of a desperation move there as Doc continues to chop down the giant.

{ Xander stumbles to the corner where he tries to work the knot out of his knee from Doc. Slowly Doc begins to get to his feet as Xander grabs him from behind for a huge full nelson slam! Doc arches on the mat as Xander pulls him up and picks him up for a big time back breaker over his knee! Doc rolls out of the ring as Xander tries to recover. }

Terri Morasco: Xander is unrelenting on Doc tonight, he keeps going back to the lower back.

Vasco Dias: Xander is a shark and he smells blood in the water.

{ Doc is on the outside of the ring. Xander walks over and grabs Doc by the air and pulls him up onto the ropes. Doc sends the points of his fingers into the throat of Xander again then grabs him by the head and drops off the apron and attempts to decapitate Xander over the top rope! }

Vasco Dias: Doc right back to the neck of Xander!

{ Xander staggers and drops to a knee as Doc rolls into the ring and connects with swing neck breaker on Xander! }

Terri Morasco: Doc is a ring general and he is showing it here tonight against the much bigger Xander.

{ Xander staggers to his feet and turns right into the Genecide Kick! NO! XANDER DODGED THE KICK AND HITS THE WIDOWMAKER!!!! Xander falls on top of Doc. ONE! TWO! THREE!!! }

Vasco Dias: YES! Huge win for Xander and the heavy weights!

Terri Morasco: Tremendous back and forth action tonight from both men.

{ Xander celebrates in the center of the ring. }

SEGMENT
Coronation

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

{We come back from commercial break to find the ring is adorned spectacularly as Simon de Montfort stands before a podium. Katherine Lockheart stands at his side both dressed to the nines in the latest fashion. Behind them are the two men and two women that made up the finals for both the Heiress and Heir to the Throne tournaments. All were dressed the part for a proper coronation except for Sense who stands there in his usual rags. Simon waits for the crowd to die down before clearing his throat on the mic to get their attention.}

Simon de Montfort: Ladies and gentlemen, we here in IWf hope to produce top quality entertainment as well as showcase athleticism and prowess. I believe we have done so with the Heir and Heiress to the Throne tournaments.

{The crowd shouts in agreement as Katherine claps beside him. Kathleen also claps while Jessica excitedly hops around. Joe nods while Sense just stands there.}

Simon de Montfort: All participants have displayed their gladiatorial nature and allowed us the pleasure of seeing some fall while two rose to become our first ever champions representing both the male and female divisions. For that I thank all those in our roster that partook in this great assembly of mighty warriors.

{More agreement from the crowd.}

Simon de Montfort: Tonight we have the official coronation! Tonight the names of Jessica Reed and Joe Everyman will be inked in our history books as well as the names of Kathleen Conway and Lex Sense.

{The crowd continues to cheer.}

Simon de Montfort: These four men and women worked hard to be here and we should all respect and never forget their contribution. Without further ado, I would like to present our Diamond's Champion with her name officially engraved on her title's plate. Ms. Jessica Reed!

{The bubbly Jessica shakes Katherine's hand and then hugs Simon as she is handed her Diamond's Title with her name written on it. Tears begin to stream as she kisses it while Simon steps aside and gives her the podium to say a few words.}

Jessica Reed: Wow, thank you so much Mr de Montfort, this is a huge honour, a dream completely come true and if I am being truthful, it was totally unexpected! I just try my hardest every single week, no matter what, and just hope that I do a good job. Last Sunday I finally lived my dream and I know that the hard work has only just begun, now I've gotta prove it wasn't a big fluke and I am not easy peasy target for those big mean girls in the back who take advantage of bubbly lil blondes like me. This is my chance to help put the women on the map, we are just as talented, just as determined as all those guys and no matter what! I, erm, I.... argh, I am sorry I am too excited...

{The fans join in her excitedness as she finishes speaking, shaking hands with everyone involved including Kathleen Conway. Simon then takes the floor once again.}

Simon de Montfort: Thank you, Jessica. Now, much to my delight, I would like to gift Joe Everyman with the name engraved title he has worked many years to earn. Joe, we look forward to your reign as our first ever Imperial Champion!

{The place goes absolutely bonkers as Joe is handed the title. He stares at his name and his reflection before raising the belt high up into the sky, emotion oozing out of every pore. The believers of Joe praise the champ as he shakes hands with everyone going as far as hugging Sense as both men celebrate his accomplishment. Simon hands the podium over and Joe with a shaky voice addresses his fans.}

Joe Everyman: Thank you, thank you everybody. I wanted to take this moment and thank some people who made this whole opportunity possible for me, cause I sure as hell didn't do it alone. First off, I would like to thank every single fan who ever rose to their feet when I made my way out here. I do a lot of what I do for each and every one of you guys out there. Without you guys, I wouldn't be standing where I am today.

{Joe pauses as the fans in the arena stand up and give a round of applause to him and themselves.}

Joe Everyman: Secondly, there are some wrestlers that I want to individually thank. First off, it's Spike Kane. He was my first real mentor in this industry, and I've followed him around like a lost puppy for a long time now, and I feel like I've learned more from him than anybody else. If it wasn't for him, I'm not sure I'd be here either. Thank you, Spike.

{Before Joe can continue, a small "Thank you, Spike!" chant breaks out in the arena. Joe lets it pan out as he smile at the crowd.}

Joe Everyman: Next is just everybody who has ever pushed me towards my grand goal and did it with a smile on their face. People like... Lance Ryan, Angel, Davey Ortega, Alex Jones, Brad Kane, Seth Evans, Will Washington, Andrew Jacobsen, and hell, even my own brother, Markus Reeves. These guys are the shining example of what it is to be a professional wrestler, and they're some of the best wrestlers in the world.

{Joe pauses as the crowd cheers for the names he had just named off.}

Joe Everyman: Next is Curtis Kanyon. He isn't here in IWF, but I know you all know him. He's my best friend in the whole world, and he always pushed me towards the top. He texts me every day telling me what a good job I'm doing here. And I don't think there was anybody else in the world who was more excited for my win than he was. Curtis, thank you for everything you've done for me through my years. This championship is for you.

{Joe holds up the belt for a moment as the crowd cheers for Kanyon.}

Joe Everyman: Lex Sense, the very man in front of me right now. We had one hell of a run as a tag team before, and it was only destiny that we would end up fighting for the championship here. There was no better opponent for me to fight in this match. I'm honored to stand across from you in this ring at any time, and any time you want a shot at my belt... you've got it.

{The crowd bursts into cheers at the sounds of a potential rematch between the two.}

Joe Everyman: And finally, I want to thank my family. I've been through a lot with them over the past eight years, and I hope that they're all proud of me when I hold up this championship. And especially to my fiance, Melanie, and my now three children, Aurora, James and Curtis. This championship is for all of you! Without you guys, I wouldn't have gotten this far. You always supported me, you always helped me get ready for my next match. This title win, above all else, is for you guys!

{Joe then quickly gets onto the corner turnbuckle near him and climbs to the second rung, holding the IWF Imperial Championship into the air.}

Joe Everyman: Adrian, I did...

{Suddenly "Mother", by Danzig cuts through the arena and Xander saunters out with a microphone in hand.}

Xander Famularo: Woah, woah, woah numbnuts. Are you done namedropping yet?

{Joe hops down and goes to face Xander as everybody in the ring looks on.}

Xander Famularo: Not to take anything away from you, Joe, but... But you really suck. I mean seriously. We all know it. You have just won the biggest match of your career and that's great and all but you know as well as I know that the moment is fleeting. In this world it's all about consistency and the only consistent thing about you is losing. Now last night I made a statement...

Joe Everyman: By attacking me from behind like a coward!

{Xander mocks fear as he is halfway down ringside.}

Xander Famularo: That was just a gift for a friend.

Joe Everyman: Fuck your friends. If you want a title shot just ask.

Xander Famularo: Oh... I'm not the one gunning for your title. I'm just here to help... Him.

{Xander points behind Joe and Everyman hurries to turn around right into a "Lex Marks the Spot" (AA Spinebuster transitioned into El Lasso from El Paso)! The crowd boos wildly as Sense wraps Joe into the submission, pulling back on his legs to really apply pressure. Xander slides into the ring and begins stomping away at the champion. Simon tries to get involved but Katherine pulls him away and out of the ring where Jessica and Kathleen follow.}

Terri Morasco: What the shit!?!

Vasco Dias: It's all about the head games, Terri. Don't look so surprised.

{Joe is in considerable pain as the look on Sense's face speaks volumes of his intensity. Xander continues stomping away until Joe clearly passes out. Suddenly the crowd shoot to their feet in support of InFamous who barrels down to the ring for the save. Both Spike and Rob slide into the ring and immediately go on the attack. Spike decking Xander while Rob focuses on Sense. All four men are battling it out in the ring as Joe is laid out.}

Trent Helms: I think Joe needs medical help.

{The vicious fight continues until Xander lands a boot right in the cajones! Spike drops to a knee as Xander slips on some brass knucks and hits the "Widowmaker"! Rob continues to fight Sense who appears to be letting Rob punch him in the face at this point. Rob figures out that Sense is using himself as a distraction. Rob turns his attention behind him only to get clocked by another brass knucked "Widowmaker"! Sense checks for blood as he laughs, patting Xander on the back before both men proceed to stomp the ever living crap out of InFamous. Spike and Rob are in a bad way when Joe shoots out of his mini-coma and attacks both Xander and Sense by himself. The crowd goes wild but there's nothing Joe can do in his foolish attempt at payback as both Xander and Sense clobber Joe before leveling him with a double big boot to the face!}

Terri Morasco: This is not good. Xander and Sense working together can only lead to bad things.

{Xander and Sense go back to stomping InFamous out before throwing their carcasses out of the ring. Sense then nods to Xander who seems to know what he is saying by the simple gesture. The two men brutally stomp and punch Joe into oblivion as the world watches, destroying the coronation set in the process. Xander and Lex rise, staring out into a crowd that despises the pair but they seem to relish in the negativity. Xander rips Joe off of the mat, picking him up unto his shoulder, then running across the ring, spearing Joe face first into the turnbuckles with the "Harpoon"! Xander then rolls out of the way as Sense comes barreling behind him to clobber Joe from behind with his "Back to the Future" (Clothesline from Hell from Behind)! Joe is sent crashing face first on the bottom turnbuckle where he remains completely motionless.}

Terri Morasco: These two had this planned all along. They must've.

Vasco Dias: I agree. Lex and Xander together is not a union the rest of the roster is going to want to test but I do.

Trent Helms: Hate to say it but do do I.

{Xander then goes to continue the beating but Lex holds him back so they could simply revel in their handiwork. InFamous is practically KO'ed on the outside, coronation set is in ruins and Joe is laid out flat, can't even tell if he's breathing as security and officials rush into the ring. Sense picks up a microphone and the Imperial Title, staring at his reflection in it before laying it on top of Joe. Sense smiles down at his little buddy before raising the mic to his lips.}

Lex Sense: This is me asking.

{Sense drops the mic as stagehands and officials attempt to check on the status of their champion only Xander punches or kicks anyone attempting to get close until he gets bored.}

Terri Morasco: I don't even know what to say right now. This was an attack that was uncalled for. What happened to sportsmanship? What do those two have planned for IWF?

Vasco Dias: There was never any, Terri, and I don't know. What I do know is that Lex does not appear to be done with Joe just yet when it concerns that Imperial Title.

Trent Helms: Joe is going to have to find a way to fight through.

{The show ends with the two monsters standing in the middle of the ring as trash is sent hurling their way. Joe is being attended to with the Imperial Title laying on his chest.}
