AMERICAN AIRLINES ARENA - MIAMI, FL, USA
AMERICAN AIRLINES ARENA - MIAMI, FL, USA
The Ascension theme music begins to play as the camera makes rapid pans across the roaring crowd! A series of red and white pyros go off above the ring, up the ramp and then around the stage and screen leaving a haze of white smoke.
BUDDY ROBERTS: Hello and welcome everyone to the first Ascension just one week removed from the biggest show of the year... SuperNova!
MICHAEL HEENAN: And what a show it was! We crowned a inferior World champion!
BR: Inferior my ass, he won fair and square! Later tonight we will have our very first talk show as well hosted by none other than Rocky Hollywood...
Mr. Troy is standing in the center of the ring holding a microphone.
MR. TROY: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome... The NEW AWS Intercontinental Champion... LANDON CARTER!
The crowd erupts in cheers as "Written In The Stars" by Tinie Tempah blasts over the PA system. Landon Carter steps out onto the stage in one of his signature suits, a pair of expensive sunglasses, and the Intercontinental Title on his shoulder. He stops at the center of the ramp and lifts the title high with one hand as fireworks erupt. He then moves down the ramp high-fiving fans on both sides. He makes it to the bottom of the ramp and over to the ring steps. He walks up the steps and maneuvers between the ropes and into the ring. He holds the Intercontinental Title high for everyone to see before shaking the hand of Mr. Troy. Mr. Troy then looks back out to the fans.
MR. TROY: And now, please rise to your feet and welcome... The NEW AWS World Heavyweight Champion... LIAM MCALLISTER!
I want my...
I want my MTV...
"Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits blares over the speakers and the fans rise to their feet and let out a huge ovation in anticipation of the new World Heavyweight Champion Liam McAllister. As the song kicks up, the pyro on the stage begins to explode and causes a cloud of smoke. As soon as the pyro stops and the smoke appears, Liam McAllister walks through the cloud of smoke and the fans cheer even louder. Liam walks out wearing a pair of dark blue jeans, a plain white t-shirt, a black leather jacket and a pair of sunglasses. When Liam walks out onto the stage he opens his jacket up to reveal underneath that he is wearing the AWS World Heavyweight Title. At the sight of the World Title the fans ovation reaches epic proportions. Liam smiles as he takes a moment to take the scene in before walking down to the ring and sliding underneath the bottom rope. He shakes hands with Landon Carter.
MR. TROY: Gentlemen, I'd like to congratulate you both on your big wins at SuperNova and officially welcome you as AWS Champions!
Carter and McAllister retrieve microphones from staff at ringside as Mr. Troy steps back, allowing them to have their time. Landon Carter lifts his microphone to his lips and begins to emphatically raise his free arm as he addresses the crowd.
LANDON CARTER: Make some noise, Miami!
The crowd pops loudly.
LANDON CARTER: First things first, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Troy for officially declaring me YOUR AWS Intercontinental Champion. Thank you, sir.
Landon shakes the hand of Mr. Troy once again as the crowd cheers. He turns back to the crowd.
LANDON CARTER: Now I know I already have my first title defense tonight against the former Champion, Conrad Black. I'm sure there are some of you that may be hoping or expecting for my reign to end before the night's out. I definitely respect the opinions of the fans, and for those of you who are fans of Conrad Black, I only hope that I can make up for the void that will be created once his contract is terminated tonight following my victory!
A mixed reaction bursts forth from the crowd, a mixture of Conrad Black fans and Landon Carter fans.
LANDON CARTER: I know. It's an unfortunate circumstance, but I will prove myself worthy of your admiration and hopefully I can give you a reason to continue cheering in his absence.
The crowd cheers a little more than it boos this time as Carter takes a gracious bow. He then steps aside as Liam steps to center stage. He lifts the microphone to his lips as the noise in the stadium gradually begins to rise.
LIAM MCALLISTER: I want to...
"LIAM! LIAM! LIAM!" the fans chant. They chant it so loud that Liam can't even begin. He tries to bring the microphone to his mouth several times before finally being able to speak.
LIAM MCALLISTER: I want to thank each and every one of you out there that believed in me. You people are the reason that I was able to walk out of SuperNova YOUR NEW World Heavyweight Champion!!
As he says this, he rips off his jacket to really show off the World Title and the fans go nuts.
LIAM MCALLISTER: But before I go any further let's hear it for our NEW Intercontinental Champion one more time!
The fans cheer loudly for Landon Carter as Carter nods in approval to Liam.
LIAM MCALLISTER: Now as you all know, I didn't really get to have my moment in the sun last week at SuperNova. What is a time honored tradition in our sport... the fact that when you lose a match of that magnitude you let the other guy have his day in the sun. His moment to bask in the glory that is the World Heavyweight Championship. But as we all know, traditions as rules don't really apply to Bobby Crane....
BOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Liam smiles as he pauses to let the fans show their disapproval of Bobby Crane.
LIAM MCALLISTER: I told Bobby Crane exactly what I was going to do to him at SuperNova. I told him that the first two matches were nothing more than an appetizer. The main course was the World Heavyweight Title and I was going to use the first two stages of hell to decimate him physically and mentally. And boy did that plan every come to fruition. Now, normally I'm not one to brag and bury the guy I just beat, but this Bobby Crane... love him or hate him, that was the first time he lost here in the AWS. So this IS one of those gloating situations.
Liam pauses as another Liam chant breaks out.
LIAM MCALLISTER: Especially after what he put me and the rest of the AWS thru over the past few months. They say that revenge is a dish best served cold and by the end of the night I was able to pry this World Title out of his cold dead hands and break his black heart into pieces when I made him squeal I QUIT!!!
BOBBY QUIT! CLAP, CLAP! BOBBY QUIT!
LIAM MCALLISTER: He quit and now he's back to the bottom of the ladder for now. Now, I know that a lot of the AWS roster and you fans have been worried about me this past week. I did have to have a minor procedure to remove the shards of glass that were left over from that vicious attack after I beat Bobby Crane. It's left me unable to compete tonight but there's no way that I would be able to call myself the champion that you can be proud of if I didn't show up tonight! You guys carried me to this win and I won't let any of you down!
LANDON CARTER: Ladies and gentlemen, give it up one more time for your World Heavyweight Champion!
The crowd erupts again, as loud as it has been thus far.
"Unbelievable" by EMF interrupts the celebration and the crowd immediately begins raining down raucous jeers at the curtain as "Beautiful" Bobby Crane appears. Clad in his trademark shimmering red robe, sunglasses, and a scowl on his face, he storms down the aisle dragging both the Hardcore and Television Championship belts on the ground, one in each hand. He stomps up the ring steps and climbs into the ring, pulling a mic out of his robe.
BOBBY CRANE: Oh, how touching! The conquering hero gets his big celebration. Give me a damn break. Everyone here knows you're a FRAUD, Liam!
YOU QUIT! YOU QUIT! YOU QUIT!
BOBBY CRANE: Oh shut up. I've got a little surprise for you Liam, Troy. I've had my lawyer review this entire situation and this little victory of yours at SuperNova? We don't even think it was legal! Let's review.
Bobby begins pacing around the ring as the crowd boos wildly.
BOBBY CRANE: First of all, let's take a moment for all of you morons in Miami to show your appreciation for the very first TRIPLE CHAMPION in AWS history!
BOOOOOO!
BOBBY CRANE: You boo because you care, thank you, I appreciate it. That's right people, after I defeated Liam McAllister not once, but TWICE in two straight falls, I was the AWS Bobby Crane Technical Wrestling Champion, the AWS Television Champion, AND the AWS World Heavyweight Champion, and I am about to argue that I am STILL a triple champion. Let's review the facts. First! The most amazing, impartial referee I've ever had the fortune of calling one of my matches, our esteemed General Manager, Alistair Mason, was about to ring the bell and declare me the victor until Liam McAllister flagrantly abused the official and PUT HIS HANDS ON THE REFEREE! I don't know how the AWS does things but where I come from that is an automatic fine and suspension!
BOOOOO!
BOBBY CRANE: Shut up because it gets better! THEN! Alistair Mason, the ONLY person with the authority to declare a winner, wasn't even conscious when the match ended! Who the hell rang the bell?! The timekeeper?! Since when does the timekeeper get to make decisions like that, huh? So! And why was Alistair not conscious? Because this little gremlin superkicked his damn head off and knocked him out! That's TWICE in the same match Liam McAllister assaulted the referee and that should have been an automatic disqualification! 'But Bobby, it was an I Quit match, there are no disqualifications'...ah shut up! Because let's put all that aside and take you back to the beginning of the night, where THIS crook (he points at Mr. Troy) banned my bodyguard, Kodiak Winters, from ringside, but was NEGLIGENT... that's legal jargon for 'didn't do your damn job, moron!'... and failed to ban anyone else from ringside, thus opening the door for some random goof named Scar to assault Bobby Crane before the third fall for NO REASON! That would NEVER have happened if Kodiak Winters was allowed to do his job and be at ringside like I pay him to be! Ipso facto, give me back my god damned title this INSTANT or I am going to SUE this company!
YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!
MH: The man has a point, Buddy!
BR: Give me a break! This is wrestling, you have to deal with adversity!
Mr. Troy smirks as Liam McAllister and Landon Carter shake their heads in disgust at Bobby Crane's excuses.
MR. TROY: First of all, Bobby...we both know Kodiak Winters wasn't there for protection, he was there to gang up on Liam McAllister and give you an unfair advantage. Second of all, I recognized your submission at the end of the match and declared Liam the victor.
BOBBY CRANE: I knew it! You're a damn crook, Troy! You've always had a problem with me! You're just itching to give me a raw deal and look at what you've done to me tonight! Let's take a minute, and look at tonight. One week after going through three stages of hell and utterly decimating Liam McAllister, your new paper champion, you've got me defending the Hardcore title against a WOMAN?! What is the matter with you?! You know the only chance this Swamp Donkey has of beating Bobby Crane is to strike after he's been through the most grueling match in AWS history! This is an outrage!
MR. TROY: Aidan Carlisle earned her title shot, Bobby. Part of being a champion is defending your belt, whether it's convenient for you or not.
BOBBY CRANE: I'll tell you what's convenient, Troy! Convenient is my rematch clause for the AWS World Heavyweight title and I am cashing in on that TONIGHT!
The crowd roars at the thought of Crane vs McAllister III.
MR. TROY: There's just one problem with that, Bobby. You insisted that there be no rematch for the loser. Remember that?
BOBBY CRANE: I remember insisting that after I beat Liam McAllister, he not be entitled to another title shot.
MR. TROY: Well apparently you didn't read the contract carefully enough because there is no rematch clause. The only way you're getting a rematch is if you can get Liam McAllister to agree to it.
Bobby Crane looks at Liam, who shakes his head and wags his finger to a huge ovation.
BR: No sir!
BOBBY CRANE: You know what? I don't need to take this. I am the greatest star in this company...
BOOOOO!
BOBBY CRANE: ...and if this is how you're going to treat me, well, I have just one thing to say about that...
Bobby Crane pulls out a hand mirror from the inside of his robe and checks his hair in it. He smirks, turns and SMASHES it over the head of MR. TROY!
BR: OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! BOBBY CRANE JUST ASSAULTED THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY!
Liam McAllister and Landon Carter lunge at Crane, but he slithers under the bottom rope and escapes. Immediately they turn to Mr. Troy, writhing in pain on the mat, blood trickling down his forehead.
BR: This crowd is in shock! Bobby Crane has just ventured down a dangerous path and Mr. Troy is in trouble here!
MH: I...uhh...yikes...
Bobby Crane points his finger at Mr. Troy and yells something inaudible at him as he backs up the aisle.
The camera fades to a commercial break...
BUDDY ROBERTS: Hello and welcome everyone to the first Ascension just one week removed from the biggest show of the year... SuperNova!

DUKE TAYLOR VS BLUE BLAZE
DEBUTS SINGLES MATCH
"Undead" by Hollywood Undead plays around the AWS arena. The arena is pitch black and once 25 seconds of the song, the lights flash back on and Taylor is kneeling on the stage and screams "IT'S MORPHIN TIME!" and rises up and throwing his hand and walking to the ring and his on the turnbuckle and taunting for the crowd and gets down and warms up.
RING ANNOUNCER: This match is scheduled for one fall with a 10 minute time limit! Currently on the way to the ring, making his AWS debut, hailing from Toronto, Canada, weighing in at 225 pounds... DUKE TAYLOR!
BR: This kid's a straight shooter.
MH: He's not a kid, he's 26, then again Larry King is probably a kid to you, as old as you are...
Blue Blaze walks out to the fans dressed in a blue costume (Blue and White with Blue Gloves & Blue Boots, entering with a blue cape)Standing there as the lights flicker from dark to light. Blue Blaze then spreads his arms out as the house lights return and tosses up a piece of chewing gum, catching it in his mouth and walks down to the ring. Rolls in and runs at the ring ropes, rebounds and then does a handspring, to rebound and backflips.
RING ANNOUNCER: Introducing his opponent, also making his AWS debut, hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, weighing in at 170 pounds... BLUE BLAZE!
MH: I'm not sure what to think of Duke Taylor, but I can tell you already I don't like the Blue Blaze. I'm gonna hate it if this guy sticks around.
BR: Well, competition is very stiff here in the AWS, we are the top of the game so as you know there are very few who can stick around, but this guy Blue Blaze... he's interesting. I like him!
The bell sounds as the two men lockup in the middle of the ring. The Blue Blaze blocks a suplex attempt and hits one of his own! The Blue Blaze starts taunting and doing superhero poses!
BR: What a goof! The fans love it!
The Blue Blaze walks over and lifts Duke, hip toss! The Blue Blaze once again poses for the crowd! Duke Taylor gets a bit angry and gets up! Duke goes for a clothesline but Blue Blaze ducks! Back body drop!
MH: The Blue Blaze is on fire!
Blue Blaze lifts up Duke! Blue Blaze yells "GOLDEN-PLEX!" He lifts him up and hits the GOLDEN-PLEX!
BR: What a bridging northern lights suplex!
One...Kickout!
Blue Blaze gets up and is in disbelief. He turns around into a SHINING WIZARD by Duke!
MH: Out of nowhere!
Duke lifts the Blue Blaze... GO TO SLEEP! Duke goes for the cover!
One...
Two...
THREE!
RING ANNOUNCER: Here is your winner via pinfall... DUKE TAYLOR!

BR: However let's not count out the Blue Blaze, he can still recover from this defeat with a strong showing next week! We'll be back after these messages, from our beloved sponsors!
We come back from commercial and we see the ring is highly decorated. The crowd starts booing as Rocky Hollywood's music hits the arena. Stan opens the limo's door and Rocky Hollywood comes out. Stan moves out of the way and Rocky taps him on his right cheek. He does his trademark poses and his suit is magnificent as usual. He enters inside the ring and yells.
ROCKY HOLLYWOOD: STOP GIVING THAT HIDEOUS REACTION!
The crowd boos even louder.
ROCKY: I don't care about you and your miserable lives but you should be thankful to me because I am here to perform for you lifeless, despicable, worthless piece of craps.
The crowd starts chanting that Rocky sucks...
ROCKY: Well you do that because you all know that Rocky Hollywood lives a way better life than you. I have achieved things which you can only dream of but that's out of topic.
You know why I have paid so much fortune in designing this ring? You know why I have wasted precious time in visiting a disrespectful crowd like you?
YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!
ROCKY: I think I have to welcome you to the first ever AWS talk show money talks. And I guess someone even with your IQ level can guess that I will be the host.
Crowd booing heavily. Rocky smiles and continues.
ROCKY: My guest tonight is someone of my caliber. He is the only wrestler who can go toe to toe with me and moreover, he is your hometown hero. Ladies and gentlemen, the first guest of money talks is JASON DRAGO!!
BR: Oh my god!
Been to Hell by Hollywood Undead blasts through the PA system. The crowd in the arena makes a mixed reaction. The arena gets dark and a single spotlight runs through it. This time instead of stopping at the upper deck, the spotlight stops at the entrance stage where we see Jason Drago standing. Drago's left arm is in a sling thanks to the attack by Melvin Brown several weeks ago. Drago glances at the crowd and heads to the ring. The music continues to play as some fans are booing Drago and some of them are cheering him because Florida happens to be Drago's home state. Drago climbs up the stairs and enters the ring. He looks at the crowd and smirks. The music stops as crowd continues to give the mixed reaction. Drago shakes hand with Rocky Hollywood and sits on the couch.
ROCKY: Mr. Drago welcome to money talks,though I would have appreciated if you would have followed the common courtesy of asking before sitting down but I think that your badass nature prevents you from doing it.
Crowd boos.
ROCKY: I guess these retards don't realize that you are their hometown hero but we cant treat retardness. My first question isn't a question, its a common courtesy which you forget, how is your arm?
Drago smiles and adjusts himself on the couch. He speaks...
JASON DRAGO: First of all, Rocky, I think you're right. These people are just too dumb to respect someone who actually deserves it. But then again, these are the same people who cheer for Liam McAllister, Conrad Black and Landon Carter. So I can't really blame them.Two types of people are in this world, Rocky. Those who born to be in the spotlight and those who born to pay to see the people in spotlight. These people....these people are born to pay to see me in the spotlight. None of--
BOOOOOOOOOOO!
Drago looks at the crowd.
DRAGO: Yeah boo me because I said the truth. And you people simply can not handle it. Guys like Liam, guys like Landon, they will come out here and they'll say that they do it for all of you and you all are stupid enough to buy that load of crap and you cheer them. And I just said you're born to pay to see me; That's all your role in this world, which is most definitely the truth, and you boo me. Great! Keep doing it. It just shows what kind of mindless sheep you people are.
Crowd boos as Drago pauses for a while and turns back to Rocky Hollywood.
DRAGO: As I was saying Mr. Hollywood, I don't care if these people appreciate my presence or not. It won't change the fact that none of them matters. As for my arm, it's getting better and if all goes well I'll be kicking asses in this ring again in one month.
Rocky Hollywood nods and clears his throat. He begins to speak.
ROCKY: Ahem, alright. Moving on my fir--
Drago cuts him off.
DRAGO: Wait, wait, wait. Before you start to throw your questions at me, I just... I just want to clear something up. You see Jim. Can I call you Jim?
Rocky doesn't look impressed with this interruption.
DRAGO: You see you talked about courtesy, huh? You said I should have followed common courtesy by asking you before taking my seat. You see Jim it's hard to take that seriously when it's coming out of the mouth of a man like you. You treat your employees like shit. You continuously bad mouth them and you humiliate them. You sexually harass your female employees. Where is the courtesy then, Jimmy boy? Watch your mouth when you're talking to me.
Rocky and Drago share a staredown.
DRAGO: Ahem, so if you're done giving me that scary look, you can start this talkshow. Spit 'em out, Mr. Host.
Rocky appears a bit irritated.
ROCKY: I am glad that you cleared it up but you dare not interrupt Rocky Hollywood again.I agree with most of the things you say and I respect you and to this day I believe that you are the only wrestler who can go toe to with me inside that ring but I realize that you also have some points which Rocky Hollywood might dislike. Actually you might be the first floridan who Rocky Hollywood actually likes considering the retardness of a real Floridan crowd.
ROCKY SUCKS! ROCKY SUCKS!
ROCKY: Yeah you can say that all you want but that wont change the fact that you all were born to cheer for the people who are in the spotlight, you dead weights were chosen to cheer for people like me and Mr. Drago.
YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!
ROCKY: As I was saying, I respect you a lot Mr.Drago, when I first arrived here I saw you spitting water on a fan and I was impressed with you. You indeed are a badass but a thing which wasn't badass was you getting injured by Melvin Brown. Jason Drago, Mr. Badass himself gets destroyed by a bald man who needs grammar classes? It was unbelievable at first but it happened. I would like to know your thoughts on the attack and your estimated return date?
DRAGO: Well Melvin Brown is a coward. He was scared. He was scared that I would outperform him. He was scared that I would out wrestle him just like I was doing every week for one month and just like I did at Syndicate Royale. Sure he won the match but I outperformed him in every aspect. And next week I accepted my defeat like a man. We were booked in a tag team match. Well I seriously don't know what was running through the GM's mind when he thought that it would be good idea to pair up Melvin Brown and Jason Drago but nonetheless I showed sportsmanship. I took that as an another challenge and I accepted it. But what does Melvin do? He decides to attack his partner before the match and costs me two months of my career!
Crowd produces a mixed reaction as Drago pauses.
DRAGO: But that doesn't matter now. You know something? I was back on my feet the minute after I got crashed into those steel pipes by Melvin. And that's.... that's the thing about a Melvin Brown beatdown. He can put me down but he can't keep me down. No matter how hard he tries, I will be back up ready to kick his teeth down his throat. None of this matters. With one arm, with no arm, I know I can and I will kick Melvin Brown's ass.
As for my return... (he smirks) I'll be back you will have expected it the least. Nobody knows, Rocky. I could return tomorrow, I could return next week or with all due disrespect, I can take this sling off right now and punch you right into your face. I'm untamed. I'm unpredictable, Hollywood. And this unpredictability... this unpredictability has made me who I am today and Melvin and every other person in this company will realize it. I will make Melvin pay for his actions.
*Rocky smiles and says*
ROCKY: Rocky Hollywood appreciates your will to compete Jason and I admire your guts. Many people want to punch me in the face but There is not a single wrestler who can claim that he or she has punched Rocky Hollywood and was able to get out in one piece. As per Melvin Brown, that guy is an absolute retard and funny thing is that he doesn't know the meaning of a retard. I was about to beat his ass at SuperNova until Scar showed up. That coward was disguised as a fan can you believe the extent of cowardness? I wanted to deal with him tonight but the management booked me against the Beardman. Can you believe it? I am supposed to soil my hands by wrestling a piece of shit like beardman. When was the last time that guy shaved his face?
Jason smiles. Rocky continues...
ROCKY: I know you want to get your hands on Brown and I know you are unpredictable. So can I presume that Melvin Brown is going to be your first target after your return?
DRAGO: Melvin Brown isn't a target. He's just an obstacle. An obstacle whom I will not only go through but conquer. My target was and will always be gold. You know what's the difference between me and Melvin? He lives in a fantasy world and I fancy myself a realist. I don't act like I am some kind of unstoppable force. I don't surround myself with people like Tommy McClinton. In my debut match, I may have lost but I was standing in this ring the very next week with AWS Television Championship in my hands. Sure I lost it a week after but I gave Liam McAllister a spectacular fight. I earned my respect in this company, Rocky and as far as I am concerned, Melvin hasn't.
He pretends to be this big scary giant, but in reality, he’s like a big dumb animal instead. Everything he’s ever said is so jammed together that it’s hard to make coherent sentences out of his ramblings. Melvin should have never bad mouthed me and attacked me. My left arm will never be the same again. It cost me twi important months and now I'll cost him the respect of his family. And all this hatred, all this hatred that I have inside is just been keeping me warm.
ROCKY: That was a badass answer. Tonight I have got to deal with a bearded retard so this is going to be my final question, what made you such a badass? You are a tough guy, perhaps the most dangerous man in the world and without a doubt the most badass Floridan alive, I want to know the reason behind it Drago? I want to know the story of Drago.
Drago gives an unimpressed look.
DRAGO: My story? You want to know the story of Jason Drago? You want to know why I'm 'such a badass'? Well Rocky I can give you 1000 reasons why I AM badass and we can go back and forth until we both are blue in the face. But no. This is not what this business is about. So what I'm gonna do... is I'm gonna call out Melvin Brown.
Drago gets up and looks at the entrance stage.
DRAGO: Melvin, I'm here and I know you're here too. And we have some unfinished business so why don't you come out so we can settle it once and for all!
Drago drops the mic and dares Melvin to come out and face him. Rocky Hollywood gets up too as he see tensions building. Melvin Brown's music hits and out he comes with Tommy McClinton! He yells - "YOU'RE DEAD, DRAGO!" Melvin hypes up on stage and heads towards the ring. Stan gets in the ring and requests Rocky Hollywood to exit the ring. Rocky smirks and exit the ring but shakes his head and re-enters immediately and gets in a position to hit his finisher "Poverty Call" on Drago who has his back turned on him!
BR: Oh, watch out!
MH: Don't turn around, Jason.
Melvin stops on the ramp and stares at Drago. Rocky screams and Drago turns but instead Rocky hits the POVERTY CALL on Stan the Limo driver!
ROCKY: LEARN TO WATCH YOUR BACK!
BR: Rocky just hit the Poverty call on his own damn driver!
MH: Just to send a message!
Rocky exits the ring and Drago turns his attention back to Melvin who entered the ring in meantime. Melvin runs at Drago and attempts a SPEAR but Drago see it coming and dodges. They continue brawling throwing punches after punches at each other. Melvin goes for a short range lariat but misses it again and Drago nails a dropkick. Drago lands on his left arm which causes him to hold it. As Drago stands up he sees Melvin running towards him. Melvin hits a Clothesline and takes both men over the top rope. Both men fall outside the ring.
BR: Bah gawd, these people are crazy!
MH: Shut up. Isn't this what it's all about?!
They get up and start brawling again. Apex GM Alistair Mason comes out with several Apex officials and security guards and orders them to stop Melvin and Drago. Guards rush and pull both men apart. Both men are trying to break free as GM tells them to calm down.
LET THEM FIGHT! LET THEM FIGHT!
He orders the officials to to take Drago back. GM leaves with Drago who's holding his left arm and the officials as Tommy McClinton tries to calm Melvin Brown down.
BR: I guess that's the end of the talkshow!
MH: I can't WAIT for Drago to return and kick Melvin's ass!
BR: It's going to be a hot issue in about a month, that's for sure! Let's cut to a sandwich commercial so we can clear the ring!
BR: Absolutely big critical fist win here for Duke Taylor!
EZ-PUNK VS PARTY P
SINGLES MATCH
“Hail To The King” hits while a video package showing his greatness is played on the big screen. After about 15 seconds, he graces the crowd with his presence. EZ-Punk makes his way down to the ring with an intense look on his face while a wave of hatred from the crowd flows over him.

EZ-PUNK: I guess I shut that little dancing cock rider up...
The crowd roars with boos.
EZ-PUNK: Last week, Beardman infuriated me to the point where I beat his ass so shitless I got myself disqualified, so really I won because there is no way he could have beaten me without the referee's help. Anyway, let's cut the crap. I want Beardman one on one and I want it very fucking soon. He said things last week to me... horrible things that made me lose my cool. And everyone knows that EZ-Punk is like a ZEN master otherwise...
BR: Yea right, he is a bigger hothead than Bobby Crane!
EZ-PUNK: Beardman, if you ever say anything about Mother again, either in my ear or in public I am going to ass rape you with a blender until the cows come home!
EZ-Punk drops the microphone and his music hits.
MH: This guy is a bit... harsh?

BEARDMAN VS ROCKY HOLLYWOOD
SINGLES MATCH
Beardman's music hits to massive heat and he shows up on stage about 10-15 seconds later, slowly walking to center stage to stop and calmly taunt while gold fireworks flood the stage from top to bottom. He continues to the ring occasionally taunting fans. He steps into the ring and flexes his right bicep arrogantly and points at it to the dismay of the fans.

The bell sounds as Beardman charges. Rocky ducks and rolls out of the ring drawing heat from acting like a coward. Rocky slides in and goes for a lariat but Beardman ducks and hits a big dropkick! When Rocky hits the ground he rolls out of the ring...
BR: Come on! Get in there and fight!
MH: He's got to make sure he's absolutely prepared!

BR: We'll be back in a moment folks... don't touch that damned remote!
We cut away to a backstage area... A single AWS cameraman is roving the arena parking lot with no clear reason for doing so. There doesn't appear to be any fans, wrestlers or crew members out there to interview. He pans his camera to the right and then to the left but it still appears to be quiet. Suddenly, a scuffle takes place. The camera is giggling and we can here grunts and groans coming from the camera man. The camera drops to the ground but is still rolling. We can hear the screams coming from the camera man.
CAMERA MAN: Help! Help! Somebody HELP ME! PLEASE!
UNKNOWN MAN: Hush! Hush! Hush! Quiet now dear boy. This will all be over soon.
The unknown assailant says to the camera man as he begins to bound his legs and arms together with a rope, as if he were hog tying a prize pig at a rodeo.
UNKNOWN MAN: Almost done and perfection!
The unknown man stands up to admire his works as the camera man struggles to break free but to no avail.
CAMERA MAN: Please sir, do not hurt me, my wallet is in my back pocket. Please. I have a family.
The camera man is pleading almost in tears...
UNKNOWN MAN: Money doesn't interest me. It is the camera I want.
The unknown man begins to walk over to the fallen camera and picks it up where he proceeds to zoom for a close up shot his hostage.
CAMERA MAN: Yeah, take the camera, it is yours.
The poor camera man visibly crying.
UNKNOWN MAN: You don't understand. I am the one who called the front office and asked them to send you out here to interview me!
The mystery man proudly proclaims.
CAMERA MAN: You...You...You wanted an interview. Sure thing, I will interview you but you didn't have to go to these lengths.
A now clearly confused camera man proclaims.
UNKNOWN MAN: Oh my dear boy, I'll be the one conducting this interview, not you. All I need for you is to lie there and listen to me! What is your name boy?
Asks the still nameless and faceless man.
CAMERA MAN: Its...Its Jimmy sir.
UNKNOWN MAN: Jimmy, today is your lucky day because you get to bare witness to debut of WILDCARD!
The man now turns the camera around for a close up view of terribly scarred, deformed face covered by elaborate war paint. He flashes a terrifying grin showing his badly stained teeth. The camera is turned back on too Jimmy the Camera Man.
WILDCARD: You see Jimmy, today is a big day for you because your going to be the first person in AWS that gets to learn a very valuable lesson from me. So, when I set you free eventually, and I will set you free, you can go back to the rest of the locker room and tell them just how serious I am.
Wildcard's gravely tone now become more serious and determined.
WILDCARD: You see Jimmy, the lesson you will learn from me today is one of unpredictability. Not to long ago you got the call from the higher ups in AWS to come out to the parking lot to conduct an interview. You had no reason to suspect anything wrong with that request, it was just part of your job. It was all just another day of work for you Jimmy! Another paycheck. And now look at you? Hog tied like a common farm animal and at my mercy. And this is what I want the rest of the AWS to open their eyes too. This is the lesson Jimmy. For over three months this company has enjoyed incredible amounts of success. Rating are high, the money is rolling in and people are lining their pockets. Everything seems perfect doesn't Jimmy, doesn't it!!! Well take it from me, the world is not perfect, the world is cruel and chaotic place. The people in AWS live in a bubble, a little fairy tail world that doesn't exist anywhere else accept for a small few. So, the point is, I have come to AWS to pop the bubble you all live in. The harsh realities of this cruel world are about to come crashing down on the entire front office and roster.
A now visibly angry Wildcard starts yelling at Jimmy.
WILDCARD: LOOK AT JIMMY! LOOK AT HIM! He is a symbol for what is to come. He was just going about his day, playing by the rules and now LOOK AT HIM! And this is what I will do to each and everyone of you. The only sensible way to live in this world is with no rules at all. To that end I will terrorize the AWS to the point where everyone will turn on each other and eat each other alive! A dose of anarchy is going to be injected into the AWS very soon and I will be the one to do it. You people are going to wonder how you thought you could live so large while the rest of the world suffers in chaos. You've all had it so good the last few months. Well now the rules, the game is about to change. Wildcard is here and I am bringing hell with me. Believe me when I say this, I am going to have ever so much fun here! Ha Ha Ha Ha!
Wildcard is hysterically laughing...
JIMMY THE CAMERA MAN: Please sir, you said you'd let me go.
WILDCARD: Oh Jimmy, I did say that and I will. But before I do, I need to give you something for you to take back to show the rest of the roster just how serious I am. Jimmy, you look so frightened, why so serious? Ha Ha Ha Ha!
Wildcard drops the camera on the ground and walks towards Jimmy, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a razor. He leans down to Jimmy and places the razor in his mouth!
WILDCARD: Smile for me Jimmy! SMILE!
Jimmy screams as the camera cuts out dead for a few moments until commercials roll...
MH: No way, Rocky would have won even without Punk. That is a 100% fact.
BR: We'll be back in a moment folks... don't touch that damned remote!

WILDCARD: You see Jimmy, the lesson you will learn from me today is one of unpredictability. Not to long ago you got the call from the higher ups in AWS to come out to the parking lot to conduct an interview. You had no reason to suspect anything wrong with that request, it was just part of your job. It was all just another day of work for you Jimmy! Another paycheck. And now look at you? Hog tied like a common farm animal and at my mercy. And this is what I want the rest of the AWS to open their eyes too. This is the lesson Jimmy. For over three months this company has enjoyed incredible amounts of success. Rating are high, the money is rolling in and people are lining their pockets. Everything seems perfect doesn't Jimmy, doesn't it!!! Well take it from me, the world is not perfect, the world is cruel and chaotic place. The people in AWS live in a bubble, a little fairy tail world that doesn't exist anywhere else accept for a small few. So, the point is, I have come to AWS to pop the bubble you all live in. The harsh realities of this cruel world are about to come crashing down on the entire front office and roster.
A now visibly angry Wildcard starts yelling at Jimmy.
WILDCARD: LOOK AT JIMMY! LOOK AT HIM! He is a symbol for what is to come. He was just going about his day, playing by the rules and now LOOK AT HIM! And this is what I will do to each and everyone of you. The only sensible way to live in this world is with no rules at all. To that end I will terrorize the AWS to the point where everyone will turn on each other and eat each other alive! A dose of anarchy is going to be injected into the AWS very soon and I will be the one to do it. You people are going to wonder how you thought you could live so large while the rest of the world suffers in chaos. You've all had it so good the last few months. Well now the rules, the game is about to change. Wildcard is here and I am bringing hell with me. Believe me when I say this, I am going to have ever so much fun here! Ha Ha Ha Ha!
Wildcard is hysterically laughing...
JIMMY THE CAMERA MAN: Please sir, you said you'd let me go.
WILDCARD: Oh Jimmy, I did say that and I will. But before I do, I need to give you something for you to take back to show the rest of the roster just how serious I am. Jimmy, you look so frightened, why so serious? Ha Ha Ha Ha!
Wildcard drops the camera on the ground and walks towards Jimmy, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a razor. He leans down to Jimmy and places the razor in his mouth!
WILDCARD: Smile for me Jimmy! SMILE!
Jimmy screams as the camera cuts out dead for a few moments until commercials roll...

MH: Brown and Ninja put down the Brothers and that is a massive win for this new group!
BR: Tommy seems to have earned his pay check tonight, folks!
The camera cuts to the back where we see Mr. Troy in the medical area of the building with Geoffrey James.
GEOFFREY JAMES: Good evening Mr. Troy. If you have a moment.
MR. TROY: Well, I'm in a lot of pain right now dude.
GEOFFREY: I'll make it quick. Uh, what is your response to Bobby Crane for attacking you earlier tonight?
MR. TROY: Well that's just plain and simple NOT COOL dude. I mean, I knew I would probably get into some stuff being the CEO of a wrestling company, but not that... not that.
GEOFFREY: What do you plan to do about it.
MR. TROY: Well, lets give Bobby what he wants. MORE SCREEN TIME! Next week, right here on Ascension, Bobby Crane will defend his TV title!
BR: THREE TITLE DEFENSES IN THREE WEEKS!?
MH: This is an outrage!
MR. TROY: If little mister pretty face wants to be the show, then he can prove it to me. Three consecutive title defenses in three weeks should be nothing for a man who thinks so highly of himself, right? Unless he's not quite as good as he says he is!
MH: This is soooo unfair.
BR: Well maybe he shouldn't have attacked the CEO...
MH: Maybe he should have finished the job...
GEOFFREY: And what is your response to Scar who wanted to make himself known in the main event of SuperNova?
MR. TROY: Listen guy... you can't do that, you can't bully me into anything. You are NOT getting a title shot just because you are a bully. That's my response...
GEOFFREY: Thank you for your time...
Down the hall we hear a knock... The camera man sticks the camera out of the door and zooms a bit. There is a knock at Aidan Carlisle's locker room door. She opens it and a lanky courier is standing there with a large package.
AIDAN CARLISLE: What's this?
COURIER: Delivery for a Miss Aidan Carlisle?
AIDAN: That's me. Who is this from?
COURIER: It just says "From your secret admirer"...
Aidan looks confused, but signs for it and tears it open.
AIDAN: Damnit...
She shoves the box over in anger and a pile of pots and pans fall out of the box. A headshot of Bobby Crane comes with them.
BR: What a chauvinist!
MH: Haha! Nobody gets under the skin like Bobby Crane! Well... maybe you, Buddy.
BR: Tommy seems to have earned his pay check tonight, folks!

BETHANY BAILY VS RAMONA VS SCAR
SINGLES MATCH
Bethany appears at the top of the ramp just after the opening chords of her theme begin. She ignores both the cheers and boos from the crowd as she strides purposefully down the ramp. She bypasses the stairs and slides into the ring under the bottom rope. As she hops to her feet she raises her arms above her head as if already celebrating her impending victory.
.
RING ANNOUNCER: This match is scheduled for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit, from Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 150 pounds... BETHANY BAILEY!
BR: Bethany is looking to destroy the competition, especially Ramona who got the best of her last week at SuperNova.
The slow start of "Comanche" started to rumble through the stadium and shook the metal beneath her feet with the songs bass. She pushes forward through the curtains and strode down ramp with purpose. With a sly cock of the head and short lived wink to the crowd Ramona rolled beneath the bottom rope, into the ring and hopped to her feet. It wasn't long before the stadium grew silent and dark in the brief pause before her opponent's music started.
RING ANNOUNCER: Making her way to the ring, from Detroit Michigan, weighing in at 145 pounds... RAMONA!
MH: Ramona is coming off a big, big win last wee, lets see if she can keep that momentum going!
BR: This is going to be a tough battle between three of our top stars!
"Sad But True" by Metallica plays as Scar walks out of the entrance. The fans boo him, his response is a small little smirk in their direction as he stands and takes in his surrounding. He slowly makes his way to the ring avoiding the occasional high five from the near by fans. Scar jumps up to the apron and enters the ring through the middle rope.
RING ANNOUNCER: Introducing next, from Des Moines, Iowa, weighing in at 220 pounds... SCAR!
MH: Scar has been a bit of a mixed bag of crazy since arriving and he is trying to turn that into a title opportunity!
BR: Yea but the owner says being bullied won't work!
The bell sounds as Scar charges towards Ramona! Ramona doesn't back down and charges as well, they collide in the ring and take each other down. Ramona is tearing at Scar but he kicks her off with his obvious weight advantage!
MH: Volatile situation here!
With Ramona thrown off, Bethany hits a diving dropkick to Ramona to send her outside the ring! Scar tries to come up from behind but Bethany hits a back elbow! Scar stumbles and Bethany hits a running bulldog! Cover!
One...KICKOUT!
BR: Early cover attempt, but I can't blame her!
Scar gets picked up and whipped into the ropes, but Scar holds on! Bethany charges Scar but he is able to turn it into a back body drop on Bethany. Bethany climbs to her feet using the ropes but Scar tries to hit a German suplex! But No! Bethany holds on!
MH: Bethany is so strong!
Scar tries a few more times but Bethany isn't budging. Scar takes his hand and grabs Bethany's ass!
BR: Uh-oh. What a perv!
MH: Hey! He was just attempting a buttocks-plex!
Bethany is caught off guard for a moment, but slaps Scar across the face! Scar tries to blow a kiss but Bethany runs and hits a cross body! Scar is getting up but she doubles him over with a kick to the gut... JACKKNIFE POWERBOMB! She's going for the cover!

Ramona picks up Bethany and whips her into the corner! Ramona hits THE FINISH LINE on Bethany! But before she can cover Scar comes running out of nowhere with a spinning neckbreaker! Scar leaps to the top turnbuckle and dives as Ramona rises... ALL THE RAGE! But Ramona dives out of the way! The spinning elbow lands on Bethany!

BR: Scar had it! Scar had it!
MH: Almost, but that doesn't quite cut it!
BR: What an amazing effort by all parties! Well up next we've got a REAL treat for you. A few days ago, on Monday. I got to sit down with the newly crowned World Heavyweight champion. It was insightful to say the least, let's have a look...
Date: September 29th, 2014
Time: 6:30 p.m.
Location: AWS Studios, AWS Headquarters in New York, NY.
As the scene opens up the first thing we see is the image of a red and white Apex Wrestling Syndicate logo. The camera pans out and the logo becomes smaller, we realize that it is embroidered on the black backdrop that rests behind two black leather chairs. AWS Commentator Buddy Roberts is sitting down in the chair to our right. The chair beside him is empty for the moment. Directly in front of Roberts is a small coffee table, with two coffee mugs bearing the Apex logo residing on it. Buddy Roberts adjusts his earpiece, clears his throat and speaks.
BR: Welcome everyone, I am Buddy Roberts, senior commentator for the AWS, and I would like to welcome you all to the first ever sit down interview with the new World's Heavyweight Champion.... Liam McAllister. So, without further ado..
Liam walks in from off-camera and goes over to shake Roberts' hand. We can only see his back at first, but as Liam sits down in the chair, we see the full picture. His attire is normal enough as he wears a pair of dark blue jeans, gray t-shirt and a black leather jacket, but what really catches our eye is the bandages on his face. He has the AWS World Heavyweight Title draped over his shoulder, and as he sits down in the chair he swings it over, setting it in his lap.
BR: Welcome, champ. First off, congratulations on the big win. I want to give you my personal thanks for finally putting that son-of-a-you know what in his place!
Liam laughs as Buddy finishes his impassioned congratulations.
LIAM: I appreciate that, Buddy.
BR: Let's get right into it... I see that you're heavily bandaged. Can you tell us how you're doing?
LIAM: Well, as everyone saw after I made Bobby Crane quit at SuperNova, he didn't take it to well.
BR: Acted like a petulant child, if ya ask me!
LIAM: I would agree. The only problem is when is a child throws a temper tantrum, toys get taken from them. When Bobby Crane throws a temper tantrum, he smashes mirrors in people's faces. I knew he was dangerous but I believed that he was just dangerous to himself. I figured he'd do something borderline psychopathic if I was able to execute my game plan, but I had no idea that even he was capable of this.
BR: So, what happened after the mirror shot?
LIAM: I had to be cleared by the medical team. Now, everyone knows that the AWS has THE top medical staff in the sport of wrestling, so when they say something you have to respect it.
BR: And what did they say?
LIAM: They wouldn't clear me for competition. Initially I was irritated but I had to remember that they have my best interest at heart. Truth be told, I wanted to start my World Title reign off the right way. I've been saying it since the day that I arrived in AWS... I want to give the fans a champion that they can be proud of. I want to be the fighting champion. I'm not going to be one of those champions that treats his company like an absentee father.
BR: What course of action did they recommend?
LIAM: Immediate surgery.
BR: Sounds terrible, how long will you be out?
Liam leans forwards and takes a sip of the coffee before answering the next question.
LIAM: It sounds worse than it really was, Buddy, trust me. What it was, was the mirror had so many small pieces of glass and shards that just were embedded in my face, there was no way that I would be able to compete for months unless I had surgery to remove them. With that knowledge in hand I went with the surgery route without a ounce of trepidation. I will be back in action a week from Wednesday, more than likely.
BR: Hate to say it but cue the Bobby Crane jokes about your appearance now!
LIAM: I think it will all work out for the best. The surgery that is. For Bobby Crane... it hasn't been working out to well.
BR: No, no it hasn't, and I for one could not be more thrilled!
The two of them share a hearty laugh.
BR: Liam, take us back to last Wednesday evening right here in the city that never sleeps... Can you walk us through that main event.
LIAM: Buddy, it was just like I thought it was going to be - it was hell. Three stages of it to be exact and it's something that I will never forget. The next time, if there ever is a next time, someone books me in a three stages of hell match I might pull a Conrad and make it a contract match as well. Because there is just no way any human should have to go through that.
BR: Never seen anything like it in my career. And I'm 60!
LIAM: You know what though? It's all about surviving for me and that match was the epitome of survival. As much as it was grueling, painful and agonizing match, I wouldn't have had it any other way to get this right here.
Liam pats the World Heavyweight Title before looking back up at Buddy.
BR: We're damn proud to have someone like you representing this company, now. What does it mean to be World Champion to you, Liam?
LIAM: You see, most people who win a championship in wrestling believe that the belt makes them. But they couldn't be more off if they were Bobby Crane trying to pick up women at a gay club. The belt does not make the man, the man makes the belt. I believe what most fail, or refuse, to see, and that is that being World Champion does not make you. What it does is it gives you an opportunity to make a name for yourself. If you just win this title and do nothing with it then the notch on your belt that says you were World Champion might as well be blank. Being World Champion affords you the opportunity to plant your flag in this business and raise it to the highest levels possible. Or you could be Bobby Crane's World Title reign and have it stopped short due to your overgrown ego. I chose to make my World Title reign the flag in the ground moment that generations of wrestlers look back upon as 'the reign'. I want people years from now to talk about how I ended the reign of Bobby Crane and what a turning point for the world of wrestling it was. That..that is what it means to be World Heavyweight Champion to me.
BR: That's well put, champ, and the exact reason why all of us true fans of wrestling have been cheerin' ya on from the sidelines.
LIAM: And I couldn't have done any of this without any of you all, Buddy. I want to thank all the fans that have written me letters, sent me pictures, contacted me on social media to tell me that they were rooting for me! I haven't been able to respond to all of the fan mail that has been sent my way, but in time, I will. I'll respond to each and every one of you because that's what being your World Champion is about.
BR: So, switching gears before we let you go, will we see you at Ascension this Wednesday?
LIAM: Yes, without a doubt. I know there were some rumors that I wouldn't be able to make it but the rumors of my demise were greatly exaggerated. Like I said, I WILL be the champion that this company can be proud of. I'll be in Miami to make sure Alistair and Bobby don't try and pull out any slick clauses in that World Title contract. Remember there's no re-match this time. It's back to the bottom of the barrel for the loser, and that was HIS stipulation. I have this sneaking suspicion he will still try and pull something, so I'll be on hand to thwart any delusions of grandeur he has about getting my title back.
BR: Champ, I know you have a busy week ahead, so any last words for the fans out there before you go?
LIAM: Yes, I want to reiterate that I will be at Ascension because that's what a World Champion does... he carries the flag for his side into battle.
BR: Well, that's about all the time we've got here tonight. For Liam McAllister, this is Buddy Roberts signing off.
MH: Almost, but that doesn't quite cut it!
BR: What an amazing effort by all parties! Well up next we've got a REAL treat for you. A few days ago, on Monday. I got to sit down with the newly crowned World Heavyweight champion. It was insightful to say the least, let's have a look...
Date: September 29th, 2014
Time: 6:30 p.m.
Location: AWS Studios, AWS Headquarters in New York, NY.
As the scene opens up the first thing we see is the image of a red and white Apex Wrestling Syndicate logo. The camera pans out and the logo becomes smaller, we realize that it is embroidered on the black backdrop that rests behind two black leather chairs. AWS Commentator Buddy Roberts is sitting down in the chair to our right. The chair beside him is empty for the moment. Directly in front of Roberts is a small coffee table, with two coffee mugs bearing the Apex logo residing on it. Buddy Roberts adjusts his earpiece, clears his throat and speaks.
BR: Welcome everyone, I am Buddy Roberts, senior commentator for the AWS, and I would like to welcome you all to the first ever sit down interview with the new World's Heavyweight Champion.... Liam McAllister. So, without further ado..
Liam walks in from off-camera and goes over to shake Roberts' hand. We can only see his back at first, but as Liam sits down in the chair, we see the full picture. His attire is normal enough as he wears a pair of dark blue jeans, gray t-shirt and a black leather jacket, but what really catches our eye is the bandages on his face. He has the AWS World Heavyweight Title draped over his shoulder, and as he sits down in the chair he swings it over, setting it in his lap.
BR: Welcome, champ. First off, congratulations on the big win. I want to give you my personal thanks for finally putting that son-of-a-you know what in his place!
Liam laughs as Buddy finishes his impassioned congratulations.
LIAM: I appreciate that, Buddy.
BR: Let's get right into it... I see that you're heavily bandaged. Can you tell us how you're doing?
LIAM: Well, as everyone saw after I made Bobby Crane quit at SuperNova, he didn't take it to well.
BR: Acted like a petulant child, if ya ask me!
LIAM: I would agree. The only problem is when is a child throws a temper tantrum, toys get taken from them. When Bobby Crane throws a temper tantrum, he smashes mirrors in people's faces. I knew he was dangerous but I believed that he was just dangerous to himself. I figured he'd do something borderline psychopathic if I was able to execute my game plan, but I had no idea that even he was capable of this.
BR: So, what happened after the mirror shot?
LIAM: I had to be cleared by the medical team. Now, everyone knows that the AWS has THE top medical staff in the sport of wrestling, so when they say something you have to respect it.
BR: And what did they say?
LIAM: They wouldn't clear me for competition. Initially I was irritated but I had to remember that they have my best interest at heart. Truth be told, I wanted to start my World Title reign off the right way. I've been saying it since the day that I arrived in AWS... I want to give the fans a champion that they can be proud of. I want to be the fighting champion. I'm not going to be one of those champions that treats his company like an absentee father.
BR: What course of action did they recommend?
LIAM: Immediate surgery.
BR: Sounds terrible, how long will you be out?
Liam leans forwards and takes a sip of the coffee before answering the next question.
LIAM: It sounds worse than it really was, Buddy, trust me. What it was, was the mirror had so many small pieces of glass and shards that just were embedded in my face, there was no way that I would be able to compete for months unless I had surgery to remove them. With that knowledge in hand I went with the surgery route without a ounce of trepidation. I will be back in action a week from Wednesday, more than likely.
BR: Hate to say it but cue the Bobby Crane jokes about your appearance now!
LIAM: I think it will all work out for the best. The surgery that is. For Bobby Crane... it hasn't been working out to well.
BR: No, no it hasn't, and I for one could not be more thrilled!
The two of them share a hearty laugh.
BR: Liam, take us back to last Wednesday evening right here in the city that never sleeps... Can you walk us through that main event.
LIAM: Buddy, it was just like I thought it was going to be - it was hell. Three stages of it to be exact and it's something that I will never forget. The next time, if there ever is a next time, someone books me in a three stages of hell match I might pull a Conrad and make it a contract match as well. Because there is just no way any human should have to go through that.
BR: Never seen anything like it in my career. And I'm 60!
LIAM: You know what though? It's all about surviving for me and that match was the epitome of survival. As much as it was grueling, painful and agonizing match, I wouldn't have had it any other way to get this right here.
Liam pats the World Heavyweight Title before looking back up at Buddy.
BR: We're damn proud to have someone like you representing this company, now. What does it mean to be World Champion to you, Liam?
LIAM: You see, most people who win a championship in wrestling believe that the belt makes them. But they couldn't be more off if they were Bobby Crane trying to pick up women at a gay club. The belt does not make the man, the man makes the belt. I believe what most fail, or refuse, to see, and that is that being World Champion does not make you. What it does is it gives you an opportunity to make a name for yourself. If you just win this title and do nothing with it then the notch on your belt that says you were World Champion might as well be blank. Being World Champion affords you the opportunity to plant your flag in this business and raise it to the highest levels possible. Or you could be Bobby Crane's World Title reign and have it stopped short due to your overgrown ego. I chose to make my World Title reign the flag in the ground moment that generations of wrestlers look back upon as 'the reign'. I want people years from now to talk about how I ended the reign of Bobby Crane and what a turning point for the world of wrestling it was. That..that is what it means to be World Heavyweight Champion to me.
BR: That's well put, champ, and the exact reason why all of us true fans of wrestling have been cheerin' ya on from the sidelines.
LIAM: And I couldn't have done any of this without any of you all, Buddy. I want to thank all the fans that have written me letters, sent me pictures, contacted me on social media to tell me that they were rooting for me! I haven't been able to respond to all of the fan mail that has been sent my way, but in time, I will. I'll respond to each and every one of you because that's what being your World Champion is about.
BR: So, switching gears before we let you go, will we see you at Ascension this Wednesday?

AIDAN CARLISLE VS "BEAUTIFUL" BOBBY CRANE (C)
FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE
HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Aidan appeared at the top of the ramp as the heavy metal chords of her theme song filled the arena, throwing a fist in the air before stopping to survey the crowd through the dimmed lights. As she made her way down the ramp she paused along the edges to greet several fans, shake hands, and pose for a quick picture.
RING ANNOUNCER: This match is a falls count anywhere match scheduled for one fall, and is for the Hardcore championship! On her way to the ring, the challenger, being accompanied by Liam O'Shea hailing from Hell's Kitchen, New York, Weighing in at 145 pounds... AIDAN CARLISLE!
BR: Aidan earned her #1 contendership a few weeks ago, it'll be interesting to see if she can cause Bobby Crane to lose yet another title!
MH: Ain't gonna happen, Buddy!
The lights dim and a single red spotlight hits the entrance curtain. A rumbling bass line ripples through the arena for dramatic effect, and as the crowd boos wildly in anticipation of who they know is about to walk out from the back, "Unbelievable" by EMF hits. Golden pyro erupts in a steady stream as the song's opening "Ooooh!" echoes through the arena.
As the pyro rains down on the entrance way, out steps "Beautiful" Bobby Crane. His flowing red robe is adorned with silver glitter which shimmers in the spotlight, and "Beautiful" is hand stitched onto the back, which the camera gets a good shot of as he turns his back to the ring, holds out his arms to the side like a prophet, and soaks in imaginary adulation from the crowd, while in reality he is showered with boos. The red spotlight follows him all the way down the aisle, where a ring attendant passes him a hand mirror. Bobby Crane holds up the mirror, checks his hair, flashes a winning smile, and then leans in towards the camera.
"Don't hate me because I'm beautiful," he mockingly pleads with our viewers at home.
He climbs the ring steps, wipes his feet on the apron, and climbs through the ropes, spinning in a dramatic circle with his arms outstretched. The crowd sends louder jeers his way, which he ignores, and he bends his knee slightly and bows like royalty for the fans in attendance.
As he backs into his corner, a gorgeous young woman in a sparkling golden dress awaits him. He opens up his arms and allows the young lady to untie and remove his robe. After warning her to take care of it, he demands the referee hold the ropes for her.
Crane stands clad in dark red trunks, matching knee pads and boots, with "BBC" hand written in black on the sides of each boot.

BR: Where's Kodiak Winters?
MH: Oh what, now you're upset that he isn't out here?
Bobby grabs a microphone before the match begins...
BOBBY CRANE: Hold on now, Aidan, keep your panties on... before Bobby Crane destroys your fantasy of making it in a man's world, I have a loose end to tie up here. Last week at SuperNova, an individual decided to take a shot at relevancy and stuck his nose where it didn't belong. When it comes to Bobby Crane...oof, what a mistake. You picked a fight with the wrong guy, Scar, and I suspect you've already found that out.
The big screen flickers to life and Kodiak Winters is in the midst of manhandling Scar backstage. He torpedos Scar into a brick wall and hits his signature SPINNING TORNADO LIKE TORTURE RACK SLAM him on the concrete floor!
BOBBY CRANE: Ouch! That had to hurt!
Kodiak smashes Scar with a steel chair repeatedly until the chair is completely bent out of shape, leaving Scar bloodied and unconscious. EMT workers swarm the scene to tend to him.
BOBBY CRANE: I guess ol' Scar won't be saving you tonight, Aidan. Sorry about that. Now... let's take care of this Hardcore title shot of yours.
The referee calls for the bell. The two walk to the center of the ring and lock up, Bobby immediately shifts in to a head lock, taking Aidan with a head lock take over to the mat. Crane stays there on the canvas with Aidan locked in a head lock tight.

MH: He hates hardcore, this is Falls Count Anywhere remember though, anything goes!
Aidan appears trapped with Crane cranking the head lock and asking the referee if Aidan gives up. The referee says not a chance, causing Bobby to crank down on the hold even tighter than before. Aidan though reaches up this time and rakes Bobby’s eyes breaking his grip.
MH: Bobby may hate hardcore matches but Aidan sure doesn’t!
Bobby staggers up holding his eye as Aidan stands as well. She runs at Bobby from behind, hooking him up and blasting him with a bulldog head lock.
BR: Aidan with the picture perfect bulldog!
Aidan quick on the draw turns Bobby over and makes a cover!

MAIN EVENT
CONRAD BLACK VS LANDON CARTER(C)
FIRST BLOOD MATCH
CONRAD'S WRESTLING CONTRACT VS IC TITLE
Back In Black begins to play over the venue's sound system as Conrad Black appears from behind the black curtain. Conrad runs from left to right at the top of the aisle, pointing at fans that are cheering for him and holding Black Rose signs. Conrad then makes his way back to the center and starts to walk down the aisle, slapping hands along the way. Black gets to the ring and hops up on to the apron, walking left and right across it, still acknowledging his fans. Conrad then steps through the ropes and in to the ring.
RING ANNOUNCER: This match is a contract versus title match with a 30 minute time limit! Introducing first, with his wrestling contract on the line, he is the challenger, hailing from Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 220 pounds... CONRAD BLACK!
BR: Conrad wanted the IC title back so bad he put his wrestling contract on the line!
MH: What an idiot!
BR: High, high stakes tonight folks.
"Written In The Stars" by Tinie Tempah plays throughout the arena as Landon Carter steps out onto the ramp carrying a stack of 100 dollar bills. White and blue spotlights spin through the crowd. He smiles as he takes in the aroma of the fresh bills. He then makes his way down the ramp, passing out hundreds to audience members in the front row. He finds a young child in the audience and hands the remaining bills to him before ruffling his hair.
"Remember, everything has a price, kid." he says with a smile. "Keep working hard and you'll be able to pay it."
He then proceeds to the ring and rolls under the bottom rope. He walks to the middle of the ring and rubs his fingers and thumbs together before taking a graceful bow. He moves to his corner and cracks his neck before throwing some jabs to warm up.
RING ANNOUNCER: Introducing next, he is the current AWS Intercontinental champion, hailing from Brooklyn, New York, weighing in at 215 pounds... LANDON CARTER!
BR: Here comes the champ! On one hand he has to defend the title, but if he wins his friend is fired!
MH: That's why you can't trust anyone in the wrestling business, Buddy!
BR: The bell is about ready to go off in this extremely rare TV show title defense of the Intercontinental title!
The bell sounds as the two men appear cautious at first... then like an alarm went off both men charge into a ball of fury! They are punching each other as hard as they can!
BR: Someone might get busted open real fast!

"Written In The Stars" by Tinie Tempah plays throughout the arena as Landon Carter steps out onto the ramp carrying a stack of 100 dollar bills. White and blue spotlights spin through the crowd. He smiles as he takes in the aroma of the fresh bills. He then makes his way down the ramp, passing out hundreds to audience members in the front row. He finds a young child in the audience and hands the remaining bills to him before ruffling his hair.
"Remember, everything has a price, kid." he says with a smile. "Keep working hard and you'll be able to pay it."
He then proceeds to the ring and rolls under the bottom rope. He walks to the middle of the ring and rubs his fingers and thumbs together before taking a graceful bow. He moves to his corner and cracks his neck before throwing some jabs to warm up.

WINNER: LANDON CARTER (STILL INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION)
MH: What on earth did I just witness?
BR: Conrad just eliminated his damned self! He's gone! No more contract!
Landon is back in the ring holding up the Intercontinental title as Conrad begins to exit... Landon is shown leaning against the ropes a beaten up mess... a single tear forms in his eye and begins to roll down his check as he watches Conrad make his way up the ramp...
BR: Landon didn't want to see him go!
"Unbelievable" by EMF hits and Bobby Crane storms out from the back, climbs into the ring and grabs a microphone... Landon is already on the outside of the ring.
BR: What the hell is this, can't Bobby crane let ANYONE else have the spotlight for one god damn minute?
BOBBY CRANE: Alright Liam, this is it. You don't wanna give me a title shot? Well drastic times call for drastic measures, and if I can't convince you to be a man and defend your title like a true champion, then maybe your little girlfriend can. KODIAK! Bring her out here!
BR: What? What the hell is going on?
Kodiak Winters emerges from the back with a semi-conscious Ramona slung over his shoulder. The crowd boos wildly.
BR: My God! Ramona! Ramona has been assaulted and what the hell is Bobby Crane gonna do now!?
MH: Brilliant!
Kodiak Winters heaves Ramona over the top rope from the floor. She crashes down to the mat and Kodiak climbs into the ring after her.
BOBBY CRANE: Here it is Liam! You want your girlfriend to walk out of this arena under her own power? Give it up, champ! Come on out here and give me my rematch!
Bobby locks Ramona in the BEAUTY SLEEP and she immediately begins to fade.
BOBBY CRANE: Come on Liam! Where you at?! Get your ass out here and give me what I want! No one needs her beauty sleep more than this ugly whore! Look at her!
Kodiak Winters holds a hand mirror in front of Ramona's face so she can watch herself fade to sleep.
BOBBY CRANE: You know what, Liam? Beauty Sleep isn't enough for this one. This one needs a makeover just like you! Kodiak, hand me that mirror!
Bobby Crane shoves Ramona down to the mat and picks up the mirror. As Ramona fights to her knees, Bobby winds up and gets ready to come down with the mirror...
But is interrupted by "Money For Nothing" by Dire Straits. The fans erupt as Liam McAllister, bandaged face and all, comes sprinting out of the back. Bobby Crane and Kodiak Winters immediately clear the ring.
BR: It's Liam! And he's saved Ramona from certain injury! We all saw what the mirror did to Liam at SuperNova, we all saw what it did to Mr. Troy earlier tonight! Ramona was surely the next victim of that heinous weapon but Liam has driven off Bobby Crane!
MH: That little hobbit! Get him, Bobby!
Liam crouches down and helps Ramona to her feet. The two hug in the middle of the ring.
BR: What a fantastic story these two have been.
MH: This is sickening!
Liam picks up the mirror, looks at it and shakes his head. Bobby Crane screams at him from the arena floor. Liam holds up the mirror and screams back at him...turns and SMASHES the mirror over the head of Ramona!
BR: WHAT?!
MH: HAAA!
BR: MY GOD! What the hell has he done?! Liam McAllister just smashed the damn mirror over Ramona's head!
The fans are shocked as Liam looks down at a bloodied, unconscious Ramona and smiles. They are even more shocked as Bobby Crane and Kodiak Winters both enter the ring.
BR: What on earth...
Liam turns to face Bobby. Bobby Crane nods at him and smiles, and the two embrace! Bobby Crane and Liam McAllister embrace!
BR: I can't believe what I'm seeing! Liam McAllister has sold his soul to the devil! He has turned his back on these fans, all his friends, and for what!?
MH: Brilliant! Bobby Crane said he'd change him and he has! He was right all along, Buddy!
BR: I can't believe my eyes, this is a travesty and this crowd is heartbroken!
The camera zooms in on Ramona's bloodied face, and then on Bobby Crane and Liam who hold their arms up in unison who are holding up the World Heavyweight, Television and Hardcore championships. The crowd is in a shocked hush, and we fade to black.
BR: Conrad just eliminated his damned self! He's gone! No more contract!
