Aiello: Ladies and Gentleman, Children of all ages, welcome to another edition of Monday Night Brawl. We are here live in Edmonton Alberta with episode Four Hundred and Fifty Nine. What an absolute treat we had just a few days ago when Friday Night Rampage celebrated its milestone of Four Hundred episodes. My name is Joe Aiello for those tuning in for the first time, and with me for second last time is legendary actor, massive EWC fan, he's been on our staff for over ten years, the one and only Jeremy Piven
Piven: Thank you for that Joe. Yes it's true my friends, tonight is my second last show with the EWC. Scheduling has gotten tougher and tougher lately, and ... well ... Mac and I came to a mutual understanding over drinks that I would make my exit from BRAWL at the end of the month. So next week ... I will be signing off for the last time. But folks, this isn't about me, tonight it's all about ten EWC Superstars putting it all on the line for you, starting with Sheikh Raslan vs LaToya Hixx. Raslan has looked absolutely polished and ready so far in his young season. Hixx is looking to rebund from some messy losses.
Aiello: After that we have Lunatic vs Emma Louise. This is a tough one to call here Jer. Lunatic showed flashes of absolute brilliance against Kinsley, and Emma has been waiting for 'that moment' to shine. It all depends on which Emma we get tonight, Lunatic might just be more than she can handle.
Piven: Its possible. Next we have a very exciting match up of Axle Aomori vs Vinny Gigante. I am a massive Gigante fan, and not just because his family pays me to be. He has proved time and time again that he is here to cause some problems. Axle is hot and cold. One moment you think he could be a champion, the next you wonder where it all went wrong. Axle needs to be perfect tonight in order to beat Vinny.
Aiello: Then we have what could have been a Main Event here tonight, Ashton Drake vs Kenneth Williams. How do you even choose a winner here? Ashton Drake has been damn near perfect in his execution and the way he controls the crowd is like a hot knife cutting through butter ... smooth and easy. Williams meanwhile has been a force, but has had trouble with big draws like CBK. Lets see how Williams handles an upstart rookie like Ashton. For Drake, this will be his toughest challenge so far in his young career. I'm eager to see how he handles both Willaims and his position on the card.
Piven: I'm excited for that match too Joe. It's our 'boner worthy' match of the week. Then of course we have our Main Event ... and what a Main Event it will be. Mark Storm vs Tony Savage. Mark Storm has had very bad luck against Champions as of late. It's like he cant handle the pressure anymore. Ever since losing his World Championship to Shadow Man last year, Mark hasn't been the same. He even went through a faze where he looked and acted like a total different person. Like some kind of Leo DiCaprio movie . As of late he's starting to look more and more like his old self but needs the win here tonight to gain some momentum back. Savage on the other hand has had some flawless performances as of late, and has been talked about heavily in getting a shot at Xplode sooner than later. Lets see how the International Champion does tonight when the title isn't on the line.
Aiello: Our first match is almost here, but first, lets learn more about EWCTV

SHEIKH RASLAN
Vs LATOYA HIXX
Vs LATOYA HIXX
Joe Aiello: We got a great night of matches tonight, Jeremy. I can't wait, and out first one is coming up right now, let's get this show on the road!
Jeremy Piven: I agree Joe, what are we waiting around for?!
Jessica Stroup: The following match is scheduled for one fall, introducing first...Latoya Hixx!!
She comes out in her bling coat in wears her white Sunglasses in poses on the stage in walks down in hops on the ropes and shows her Boss Brass Knuckles in get's in the ring in takes off her gear in waits for her Opponent
Cross My Heart by Skepta blasts through the speakers and the camera pans around the arena capturing the faces of fans around the arena with nothing but disgust in their faces for the man who comes with the theme. The cameras finally rest on the entrance where Sheikh Raslan finally makes his appearance into a stage of white smoke which envelopes his feet, he is in an all white attire, dishdasha and headscarf.
Jessica: And her opponent, from Beverly Hills, California...Sheikh Raslannnn!
Joe: This guy almost got killed by Vinny Gigante last week, I just hope Vinny doesn't come out and pull another stunt like that during this match, Jer!
Jeremy: Neither do I, but Vinny also has a match later, so Sheikh could go out and screw Vin over...don't know with these two, whatever is going on is personal.
Joe: Agreed
Behind him is his personal servant who takes the stroll down the ramp with him, his servant wearing a brown dishdasha and a mouth full of slurs as he curses at fans who boo at the sheikh who is unfazed. The servant goes ahead of his master at the ring by sliding in whilst his boss takes the steel steps, when he gets to the ropes his servant is seated on the middle rope giving him room to easily get in. Once in he takes off his headscarf and the dishdasha, hands them to his servant and is left in his white wrestling briefs with white boots and white elbow pads on both arms. As his servant exits the ring he smirks and throws three warm up air punches as the music fades
DING DING DING
The bell rings and Latoya runs straight at Sheikh trying to get the early advantage and possibly end this early, but as she reaches him Raslan side steps her and she hits shoulder first into the turnbuckle. Sheikh lets a smirk out as his servant cheers him on. Raslan walks over to Latoya who is still resting on the middle turnbuckle, pulls her out and pushes her up against it. He sends one punch to the gut of Latoya, then he sends one to the right side of the head, he does this sequence one more time and on the fifth punch he pulls back and puts his whole body weight behind a punch to her head knocking her down to a sitting position in the corner. Sheikh walks away and lets out a smirk. He runs back towards Latoya and sends a knee to the side of her head, knocking her head back and hitting her neck on the bottom turnbuckle.
Joe: Man, Sheikh is really taking it to Latoya here early on Jer.
Jeremy: I think it's all the pent up frustration about what happened last week with Vinny. He needs someone to take it out on and Latoya just happens to be that person.
Sheikh again walks towards the middle of the ring with a smirk. He walks back towards Latoya and picks her up. As he gets her to a standing position she slaps him and then hits him with a dropkick to the face. As she lands she grabs her neck and gets up to one knee. Raslan rolls to the opposite side of the ring as he grabs his nose, he looks up at Latoya who has gotten up to a standing position. Sheikh gets up and Latoya charges him again, this time she hits a clothesline on the prince, knocking him down. He pops up quickly though and Latoya hits him with another clothesline. Before he can try to get back up she sends a boot to the side of his head then falls down and goes for an early pin.
ONE!
Joe: Latoya trying to get the upset!
T....KICKOUT!
Joe: I think Latoya thought she had him there, Jer.
Jeremy: Yeah, but there was no way she was going to get him with just a clothesline.
Latoya gives a look at the ref as if she can't believe it wasn't three. She gets up, still looking at the ref but then focuses her attention back on Sheikh who has slowly recovered and gotten up to one knee. Latoya slowly walks over towards Sheikh but as she gets near him, Sheikh quickly gets up and hits a dropkick sending her hard to the mat! Sheikh quickly gets up after hitting a dropkick and grabs Latoyas legs, he puts his right leg through her legs then crosses them and flips her over locking in a Sharpshooter!
Joe: Sheikh could have it here!
Jeremy: Latoya is going to have no choice but to tap out I think, Joe!
Latoya screams out in pain as Sheikh tightens the grip. Latoya pushes herself up somehow though and pulls herself to the ropes to break the hold! The ref tells the Sheikh to break the hold he doesn't though as he begins counting to try to get Sheikh to break it. He finally lets go of the hold after the count of four. Latoya reaches for her back holding it as Sheikh walks away and lets out a smirk. Sheikh walks back over towards Latoya and pulls her to the center of the ring where he proceeds to pick her up. He picks Latoya up and sends a knee to her gut doubling her over. Sheikh gets her in a front face lock, hooks her leg and hits a Fishermans Suplex bridging it!
ONE!
Joe: Sheikh could have her here!
TWO!
Jeremy: I think he's goet her Joe!
THR....KICKOUT!
Joe: How did she kickout?!
Jeremy: I don't know, Joe!
Sheikh pops up and looks at the ref, surprised that he didn't get the three, he quickly focuses his attention back on Latoya however, he lifts her up and sends her across the ring towards the ropes. On the rebound Sheikh grabs Latoya by her midsection, lifts her up and hits a Sideslam! He immediately follows that up with a cover, hooking the outside leg!
Joe: Another pinning attempt by Sheikh
ONE!
Jeremy: He could get her here for sure, that was a big sideslam.
TWO!
TH...KICKOUT!
Joe:Latoya has no quit in her does she?!
Jeremy: I don't think so, Joe.
Sheikh pops up again, looking at the ref not believing that he hasn't pinned her yet. The Prince gets up and waits for Latoya to get up. As she does Sheikh runs at her he ducks his head going for a a spear and the Rose Gold Train but Latoya rolls out of the way and as Sheikh passes her Latoya hits the Double Knee Back Breaker and goes for the pin!
Joe: Latoya could have him here!
ONE!
Jeremy: What a win this would be for her!
TWO!
THR...KICKOUT!
Latoya gets up and looks at the ref, not believing that she didn't get the win on that one. She walks towards the ref, as she does Sheikh has slowly gotten up. He runs at Latoya and as she turns around he hits a spear! He isn't leaving it at that though! He picks Latoya up and gets her in a camel clutch as his servant pulls out a picture of him as he hits the NUK!
Joe: This has to be it here, no way she isn't going to give up here, Jeremy.
Sheikh locks the clutch in tighter as Latoya slowly passes out. The ref lifts up her arm and lets it drop. As it does he calls for the bell!
DING! DING! DING!
Jessica: Here is your winner, Sheikh Raslan
Jeremy: That was one hell of an opening match, Joe.
Joe: I agree, Jer. Latoya put up a hell of a fight, she came up just short though! Raslan continues to look absolutely fantastic here in the EWC. We'll be right back folks after these messages.

RINGSIDE
The fans explode as "Dream Warriors" by Dokken begins to play! Rushing out onto the stage is Ashton Drake, his hands gesturing for the fans to get behind him! The arena shakes from the response, as they comply with his wishes instantly! Smiling wide, Ashton walks slowly now to the end the stage.. and crouches down. He watches the crowd as they scream in his direction... there is a solid connection between them!
Aiello: There he is.. Ashton Drake! This kid really impressed me last week.
Piven: Drake has wasted no time getting situated in the EWC. He is a part of a new generation of stars here in the company who are setting a standard of excellence that has not been seen in sometime! The fans have really gotten behind this highly charismatic superstar, but ass we all know, the proof takes place within the ring. It's too early to judge that just yet.
Aiello: I am excited to see what he has to say tonight! This is what it is all about.
The music continues to play loudly as Drake walks down the rampway, slapping the hands of the fans as they reach out for him! Once at ringside, he rolls under the bottom rope and spins in circles with his hands out. He then smiles at the fans and heads to the center of the ring, where he sits down.
Aiello: Well... that's different.
Still seated, the theme music continues to play as Ashton nods his head and sings along. Finally the theme song ends, and Ashton speaks:
Drake: Well... hell... ARE WE HAVING FUN YET?!!
The fans immediately begin to chant: DRAKE DRAKE DRAKE DRAKE!!!!
Drake: Trust me... however much fun you think that all of you are having, the view is even BETTER from where I am sitting! Last week, I walked out here and introduced myself to you all. I did that because it's the respectful thing to do, right? I also did it.. because I wanted you all to begin this ride with me... a ride to the top... a ride to fucking absolution!
The fans stand up and cheer as Drake rises up to his feet! He walks around the ring, letting them scream his name.
Drake: So let's get to the point. I have heard rumors that I am more of a side show for the company right now. Hell, on my first day, they sent Aiello over there to greet me at the airport! I couldn't even getting a proper entourage! Our glamorous EWC Undisputed Champion, Xplode, has like 4 people backstage just to carry his damn luggage and I am left with a guy who can't even find his car! Still, I am not going to judge how things are going here, on the contrary, I am going to push forward and earn the respect that the guys backstage receive around here. I am going to keep on knocking on doors, dropping bodies for the three count, until they are forced to give a guy like me a break around here! On THAT day.. the EWC front office will have to recognize all of US... let US live that damn dream that we hear about so often. NOW WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT!!!
The fans scream in approval, stomping their feet and cheering as Drake leans against the ropes, a smirk upon his face.
Drake: So let's make history again. We do this by walking back out to this ring tonight, and by defeating Kenneth Williams in this.. very.. ring. It's nothing personal, I believe that is how the saying goes. It's simply business. Night of Champions is a few weeks away, and I am to put my finger in the eye of somebody around here enough times to get a shot on that show. Kenneth Williams won't get me that shot.. but he can be used a message. That's the same message that goes to the rest of the locker room too! Gone are the days where one guy can come out here once a month, wave around a sparkling championship that was created for him.. and then head back to the locker room to collect that mighty check. It's time that we bring wrestling back to the FANS!
The fans scream!
Drake: It's time that we take back this sport and bring a sense of legitimacy to it!!
Fans: DRAKE... DRAKE.... DRAKE.... DRAKE... DRAKE!!!
Drake: It's time... that we balance this shit out and make this company respectable again. For years, we have waited for the so called legends of the EWC to do that. Instead, they had their heads so far up their asses that they forgot with this is all about. Well, if you want something done.. you gotta' do it yourself. I AM ASHTON DRAKE.... and this is OUR story.
Ashton Drake tosses the microphone over his shoulder and runs to the nearest turnbuckle! The arena continues to spring to life as he ascends the buckle, playing to the fans! You can hardly hear the music due to the fan response.
Aiello: WOW... THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!
Piven: IS THIS GUY FOR REAL?? I CAN HARDLY HEAR MYSELF SPEAK!!!!
LUNATIC
Vs EMMA LOUISE
Vs EMMA LOUISE
Aiello: Ashton Drake certainly has a way with this crowd and they are pumped up tonight. We will see him back out here later tonight. Man ... what a great show we've had thus far and we are ready for our next match
Jessica Stroup: The following contest is scheduled for a one fall!
Making his way to the ring with 'Whatever Retaliation' by CFO$ ft. Our Lady Peace playing through the speakers is the Lunatic, who's running his fingers through his hair like a mad man as he walks down the aisle, licking his dry lips as he reaches the edge of the ring.
Jessica Stroup: Introducing first, from Miami Florida, weighing in a two hundred and twenty five pounds.. THE LUNATIC!
A massive pop ensues from the audience as The Lunatic hops up onto the apron and poses for the audience, crazily playing an air guitar on the apron before smirking and entering the ring. He then hoists himself up onto the turnbuckle and poses for the audience once more, nodding his head approving the audience reaction.
Aiello: This kid has got it all from what we've seen of him Jer, very very impressive showings from this kid thus far. The Lunatic, an unorthodox specimen who's managed to get people's heads turning since being here with us, and what a signing he has been.
Piven: He managed to keep up with Harlow Kinsley Joey, when someone's able to do that, you know they've got a future here, and this kid certainly has got one! He's got quite the task tonight though, he's facing Emma Louise.
This Little Girl" by Cady Groves plays and Emma steps through the curtain.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent.. from London England, weighing in several pounds of girly goodness.. EMMA LOUISE!
Blows a kiss to the crowd a la Maria and then walks, half dancing to the ring where she slips feet first through the ropes like an envelope before laying suggestively over the top rope.
Aiello: What a match this is going to be Jer, both of these superstars looking to break into the mid card scene in terms of the X-Division or the International title scene and who knows, maybe a win tonight can cement that? Your predictions?
Piven: I'm going to go with Emma Louise tonight. Whilst I do think very highly of the Lunatic already, I think Emma will be able to edge a victory in this one tonight Joey
DING DING DING
The bell rings and immediately the two begin to circle the ring and collide in the centre of the ring with a collar to elbow tie up, jockeying in position for a few moments before The Lunatic is able to get Emma in a side headlock but Emma is quick to lead him to the ropes, managing to throw him to the otherside of the ring. The Lunatic bounces off of the ropes and meets Emma with a shoulder block after he returns. He then heads to the ropes and Emma is back up on her feet, leap frogging over him. He bounces off of the other ropes and Emma meets him with a quick chop to the chest, with the audience "wooing" as she connects. She connects with another and another as she brings him over to the corner. She boots him in the gut before hitting a DDT on The Lunatic, who's head hits the canvas hard!
Aiello: Emma Louise with that DDT on The Lunatic, who's head planted right on the canvas!
Piven: That's gonna hurt in the morning, that's for sure Joey!
Attempting to hook his legs The Lunatic immediately throws her off of him and gradually gets to his feet. Emma runs towards him and the Lunatic returns the favor to her, kicking her in the gut and hitting her with a snap DDT of his own. He isn't done yet. Picking her up by her hair he throws her into the corner before running towards her, greeting her with a running crossbody before planting several crisp shots to her head, repeatedly! He gets off of her and paces the ring, embracing the applause from the audience as he runs his fingers through his hair. Allowing Emma to get to her feet, she holds onto the ropes and The Lunatic runs towards her and Emma manages to use all of her strength to lift the Lunatic over the top rope and onto the apron. She slaps him across the face before thrust kicking him to the outside. She looks at the ropes before looking at the Lunatic, running to the ropes, bouncing off of them and now running towards the Lunatic on the outside who's quickly hopped on the apron and grabs her, suplexing her over the top rope and onto the outside, creating a huge thud!
Aiello: AND THE LUNATIC WITH A SUPLEX TO THE OUTSIDE ON EMMA LOUISE!
Piven: THAT WAS INSANE! DAMN CRAZY FROM THE LUNATIC!
Rising to his feet, The Lunatic breathes heavily as he walks around the outside of the ring, running his fingers through his hair as the audience around him pat him on the back. He turns his attention back on Emma Louise who's struggling on the ring steps, grabbing her by her hair but Emma Louise manages to elbow him in the gut several times to gain the upperhand, connecting with a spin kick that sends The Lunatic rocketing back down to the floor. She grabs him and rolls him into the ring before hoisting herself up onto the top rope, positioning herself and looking down at the Lunatic. She takes the leap but The Lunatic moves out of the way but Emma is smart enough to see it early and manages to roll through and get back up onto her feet. She runs towards The Lunatic and ducks under an impending clothesline, she's now in behind him, turning him around and connecting with a twist of hate!
Now she begins her climb up to the top rope, positioning herself on the top rope before performing a moonsault on The Lunatic... but no, he manages to get his knee's up just in time! She clutches her stomach and rolls around the ring whilst the Lunatic slowly makes it up to his feet. Emma helps herself up by the corner and leans against it with The Lunatic running towards her and connecting with a corner forearm before grabbing her by her head and leading her to the centre of the ring, hitting her with a running bulldog, before theatrically putting on a performance for the audience, getting them rallied up as he gets to his feet. He quickly covers.

Aiello: And Emma Louise with the kickout!
Piven: The Lunatic was so close to picking up a victory after that running bulldog but Emma Louise showing great resilience here tonight.
Burying his head in his hand, he gets back to his feet and paces the ring, waiting for Emma Louise to get back up to her feet. He grabs her by her legs, looking for a double leg take down and manages to hit it but Emma, from a grounded position, manages to kick him away. She then kips her way back up to her feet and limbos under a clothesline attempt from the Lunatic. She then turns him around and grabs him by his neck, connecting with a snapmare driver!
Aiello: EMMA LOUISE WITH THE GIRL CRUSH!
Piven: AND THE PIN!

Jessica Stroup: And the winner of the match, EMMA LOUISE!
Aiello: Wow, what an impressive victory by Emma Louise here tonight. This was a very close match and I honestly didn't expect Emma would pull it off. What a night for her and what a way to snap her losing skid
Piven: Lunatic is still a beast, it was a close match and he should be proud of where he is at. Minor tweaks here and there and he'll be picking up wins like a high school QB picking up cheerleaders and VD. We'll be right back folks.

RINGSIDE
The Brawl titantron capture MNB’s Ace Heart as he stalks his prey from afar. In the wild world of wrestling most superstars get scared off the moment they see the interviewer come by, he would have to be silent. He hides the microphone behind his back as he approaches his unsuspecting prey that seems to be quite vigilant staring down a closed locker room door in the backstage area. He walks up from behind and pounces.
JOE AIELLO: That’s Sheikh Raslan, what’s he doing just staring into space like that.
JEREMY PIVEN: I think the pressure of the EWC has finally gotten to him, his brain is fried.
ACE HEART: RASLAN, I have a couple questions I would like to ask you, could you spare a moment of your time?
The approach obviously made the Sheikh uncomfortable, he passes the bat in his right hand over to his left, for a moment Ace suspected he was about to fall victim to his prey. But Raslan sighs and nods in approval to the interview though his focus seems to be on the locker room door.
ACE HEART: You came away with your first victory in professional wrestling, how do you hope to build on that?
RASLAN: It is the first of many really but that is mare statistics, all that matters is that I inflicted as much pain as possible on my opponent. All my opponents for now are just practice, cadavers for me to test how much pain I can inflict on a human being and when I am done practicing, there is one perso…
JOE AIELLO: Do you see that Jeremy, Vinny Gigante just got out of the locker room Raslans been staring down. His fight is up next.
JEREMY PIVEN: OH MY GOD, LOOK OUT VINNY
Raslan cuts his interview short and sprints towards Vinny Gigante with the baseball bat ready for a swing, Vinny notices him from the corner of his eye and ducks below the swing and tackles Raslan to the ground, he begins to unload on Raslan with his fists. Raslan looks a little disoriented from the punches but then is able to block a right hand and responds with claws to Vinny’s eyes. Vinny gets off his assailant holding his eyes and up comes Raslan who picks up the baseball bat from the ground and from behind connects on Vinny’s left knee. Gigante falls to the ground as Raslan continues his onslaught on the knee, he sets the leg down and stomps the knee, once, TWICE, THRICE. Vinny reaches out his arm to try to grab Raslan from an semi inclined position and gets a rushing knee to the head for his troubles.
JEREMY PIVEN: SOMEBODY CALL THE SECURITY!!
JOE AIELLO: Raslan is working that left knee, he really doesn’t want Vinny walking out of this
Raslan picks up the baseball bat one more time and delivers a deafening hit to the left knee, he lifts it over his head and harmers it down but before he is able to land the blow he is tackled by 2 security officers. A third and a forth arrive and force him away from the scene as he tries to force his way out of their grip. The paramedic arrives on the scene to attend to Vinny who is clutching that left knee on the ground in obvious pain.
JOE AIELLO: He is going to have to compete in just 5 minutes; we may have to cancel the match due to this unforeseen assault.
The scene fades to commercials.

AXLE AOMORI
Vs VINNY GIGANTE
Vs VINNY GIGANTE
Piven: Welcome back folks. We are now ready for our next match. Gigante, Axle, about to GET ... IT ... ON
JESSICA STROUP: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall.
"Heathens" by Twenty One Pilots plays through the loudspeaker as the lights go out and you can barely see a figure with his head bowed as the first lines of the song are heard. At :27 as the first drum beat sounds red and white fireworks shoot up and Axle is wearing his red Anarchy Jacket and throws his arms up making an A shape with his hands. He slowly walks down the ramp to a mixed reaction from the crowd. There's Anarchy'16 signs and Axle signs that cheer him and jeer him. He stops at the end of the ramp and lets out a smirk and turns left towards the steps. He climbs up the steps and onto the turnbuckle where he throws his hands up once more before jumping down off of the turnbuckle and walking towards the opposite side of the ring where he leans up against the corner his arms outside of the ropes resting on the top.
JESSICA STROUP: Introducing first from Howe, Indiana standing at 6 feet and weighing in at 210 pounds. AXLE AOMORI
JOE AIELLO: Aomori looks pumped and ready for action.
JEREMY PIVEN: He must be, this match will bring one of this men one step closer to an x-division title shot.
“New York, New York” by Sinatra blasts through the PA system and out comes Vinny Gigante walking with a limp in his step with a knee brace on his left knee. He makes his way down the ramp slowly and then slides into the ring.
JESSICA STROUP: And his opponent from New York, weighing in at 258 pounds and standing in at 6ft 2 inches. VINNY GIGANTE.
JEREMY PIVEN: I don’t think Vinny is up for this fight, he looks really hurt
JOE AIELLO: Yeah a full on assault would do that to you. That knee looks pretty bad, I hope he can make it through the fight.
DING DING DING
Both men circle the ring waiting for the other to strike but both seem hesitant to make the first move, Axle then puts some spring into his step and shuffles his feet taunting Vinny’s injury. Vinny immediately goes on the assault thrusting himself forward going for the punch but Aomori ducks under the punch and clips his left knee forcing him to the mat. Axle gets back to his feet and shuttles some more with a smirk on his face. Immediately Vinny gets to his feet he launches at the leg and tackles Vinny once again.
JOE AIELLO: Well Aomori is the man with the plan. He intends to work on that knee till Gigante gives in
JEREMY PIVEN: That might be but I do not think it would be that easy to take down Vinny, he has shown he is resilient.
Axle grabs Vinny’s left leg whilst he lies on his back, as he tries to pull it Vinny forces him in his own direction by pulling in his knee and then lands a kick to the face that sends Aomori back. Vinny uses the chance to get to his feet though he is relying on his right leg to stay up. Aomori recovers and launches in for another tackle diving at the injured knee but Gigante takes a step back and he misses, Gigante takes the moment to stump the living daylight out of his opponent using the ropes as support he repeatedly stomps the air out of his opponents chest. He brings Axle to his feet and Axle responds with two firm right hands to the face and then they both lock into a grapple. The more powerful main prevails; Vinny underhooks his opponent and delivers some ‘street justice’ sending Aomori’s face bouncing off the canvas, he goes for the pin.

Kickout!
JOE AIELLO: Vinny has turned this fight around nicely, I really thought he had Axle there.
JEREMY PIVEN: If there is anything I learned from Scars and Stripes it is how stubborn Aomori is, the man will not stay down.
Vinny picks his opponent up and sends him to the ropes, as Aomori returns he comes bearing gifts, an Enziguri. The hit forces Vinny to use the turnbuckles to stabilize himself, but just as he gets out of his dazed state he is greeted with a clothesline… HE MISSED! Vinny has him on the turnbuckle, he delivers a back-hand slap straight to the chest of Axle and then does it again. As he goes for a third he is greeted with a block and a headbutt Which sends Vinny staggering backwards, he follows up with a kick to the stomach and then grabs his opponent by the hands.
JOE AIELLO: OH MY GOD! He wouldn’t
JEREMY PIVEN: He WOULD! AOMORI DEATH DROP!
He connects with the Aomori death drop and then immediately goes for the pin

KICK OUT!
Axle Aomori looks mad, he can’t believe Vinny got out of that yet He gets to his feet and immediately goes for the injured leg of Vinny. Aomori locks him in the sharpshooter and then pulls him to the center of the ring
PIVEN: He has the sharpshooter locked in! That attack by Sheikh Raslan may just cost Vinny this fight
Aomori applies more pressure, Vinny Gigante has nowhere to go, he taps out.
DING DING DING
PIVEN: What a crucial win for Aomori, one step closer to the X-division title having beaten his fellow contender
Aiello: You are right, that was a very important win for him on the road to night of champions
JESSICA STROUP: And your winner by submission, AXLE AOMORI!
Aiello: We will be right back after these messages

ASHTON DRAKE
Vs KENNETH WILLIAMS
Vs KENNETH WILLIAMS
Aiello: Welcome back friends. Next up on this stacked Monday Night Brawl, two of EWC's biggest rookie prospects, this could easily be Match of the Night...
Heart: Correction, Joseph "Not related to Danny" Aiello. *lets loose a man sized alcohol belch!* Match of 2016, first week of 2017, and possibly a Chanukah e-card video! That's what kind of match this could be tonight!
Aiello: Ladies and Gentlemen, Ace Heart is here at the commentary booth...apparently VERY intoxicated....
Piven: *Grinning ear to ear* Hell, yeah, my boy Ace in the Hole getting turnt like steering wheels! What's in your cup there, 70's porn moustache?
Heart: Grappa: *belch* Got a trunk-load of this high octane Italian grape juice when all I had to do was ignore the fact some of Vinny's goons were...*pauses in fear*....NOT behind that seedy warehouse 2 nights ago at 4 A.M. with a delivery truck full of Ultra HD's and no invoice papers...he's legit; I'll testify to that in a court of law! *pours Piven a cup*
Aiello: Oh, goody; they're getting drunk together around me....again....*groans*....this is like my Memorial Day Barbeque in 2013 all over again; except at least they won't light my carpet on fire this time
Heart: *burp* On with the intros: I wanna get my Gordon Solei on!!
The lights in the arena begin to dim and the fans jump straght to their feet in cheer as "Shadowboxin" by the GZA & Method Man begins to play through the PA speakers. The familiar adlibs of Method Man accompanying the vinyl scratches of the classic "Shaolin vs. Lama" kung-fu movie echo throughout the arena as "The Human Highlight Reel" Kenneth Williams steps out onto the ramp. Fire and pyro began shooting out of the stage as Kenny stands at the ramp with a playful grin as he stands at a military rest with his head cocked to the side before taking off in a full sprint to the ring, making sure to slap hands of the fans on his way. He hops onto the outside of the turnbuckle before looking out into the crowd and delivering a vicious dab with a look of disgust on his face. He hops into the ring and prepares in his corner.
Stroup: The following match, is scheduled for one fall. First to the ring, from Las Vegas, NV., weighing in at 225 lbs....The Human Highlight Reel: Kenneth Williams!
Aiello: Williams has been SO close his last couple of engagements; could tonight be the night he breaks through and gets that big win?
Piven; Sorry...*belch*...wasn't paying attention....found a Charizard on Pokémon GO!
The lights fade to a dark grey, and the arena becomes silent instantly. The video screen above the entrance flickers to life, showing an image of a man, his eyes ready for battle.
Explosions rocket from the stage, catching the fans off guard as "Dream Warriors" by Dokken begins to play! Stepping into view, Ashton Drake runs to the end of the stage and crouches, looking out into the sea of fans. There is a sarcastic smile on his face, as he shakes his head, overwhelmed by the fans around him!
Jessica Stroup: Hailing from Brooklyn, NEW YORK! Please welcome... ASHTON DRAKE!!!
Nodding his head, Ashton hops up to his feet and cranks his arm. He then heads down the rampway and runs towards the ring as the fans cheer him on. His dark pupils stare at the ring as the arena explodes around him. Arriving at ringside, Ashton hops up to the ring apron and remains in place.. looking out at the fans around him.
Nodding his head once again, Ashton enters the ring and slowly struts around, his arms held out as he soaks up the fans' responses. His theme song slowly fades out as Ashton ascends a turnbuckle, finding a seat on the top pad. The fans continue to cheer as the theme song comes to an end.
Piven: And his opponent, from Brooklyn, NY....ASHTON DRAKE!!
Aiello: On loan from Rampage is their head of officiating, the highly distinguished and effective John Dean!
Heart; Top notch official; those lame 90's wrap around shades he always wear...not so much a good call, though!
DING DING DING
Dean instructs both men on the rules of the match, then the bell rings! Williams and Drake lock up in a collar and elbow tieup; Drake quickly dumps Williams on the mat with an arm drag, chaining it into an armbar. He wreches in the lock, causing major stress on Kenneth' shoulder. Kenneth Williams manages to get his foot on the rope, and Drake releases the hold immediately, but not before booting Williams in the shoulder. He wrenches up Williams, and tosses him with an Irish Whip, only to quickly pull The Human Highlight Reel back to him, and land a over the head belly to belly suplex.
Aiello: Ashton's showing some chain wrestling chops early on; keeping Williams grounded.
Piven: Best way to keep a jet from flying; keep it on the runway. Damn...*looks at his cup*...this stuff's great!
Drake Irish Whips Williams hard into the opposite corner. He charges at him with a running elbow, but Williams puts his boot out, meeting Drake in the chin. While stunned, Williams quickly sets him up for a backdrop, but spins him around and connects with a Blue Thunder Bomb. Cover by Williams....

Kickout by Ashton Drake.

Kickout by Ashton Drake.
Frustrated, Williams tosses Drake into the corner, and works him like a speed-bag, connecting with rights and lefts. Staggering out of the corner, Williams springboards off the top rope, and hits Drake flush in the chest with a springboard missile dropkick!
Heart: Precise and devastating aerial assault.
Williams takes too much time celebrating; as he picks up Drake from the mat, Drake pummels his midsection with forearm shots. Williams counters with a knee to the midsection, and attempts a vertical suplex on Drake. But Drake slips out, lands on his feet...
One German Suplex! Ashton rolls Williams back around...
Two German Suplexes!
Aiello: Here comes the trifecta.
THREE German Suplexes; the last one bridging into a pin....

Kickout by Williams! Drake slaps the mat in frustration; seemingly having that pinfall slip from his grasp.

Kickout by Williams! Drake slaps the mat in frustration; seemingly having that pinfall slip from his grasp.
Aiello: Great combination wrestling wasn't enough for Ashton; Williams is still in this fight!
Heart: Drake's been in control of his temper so far; smart wrestling's got him back on top of this fight!
Piven: *looking woozy at his class* What the hell did they brew this stuff out of? My dead grandpa's standing next to me, scolding me about how liberals are taking over the media and making people gay with anime over my shoulder!
Drake leans Williams against the ropes, and laces into his chest with knife-edge chops. Every time a chop hits, the crowd yells "Woooooh! After 6 chops, Drake runs across the ring, bounces off the ropes...
Kenneth Williams tosses him over the rope, and down onto the pavement!
Heart: Last time I saw somebody hit the floor that hard face first, it was you trying to crowd surf at that Soundgarden concert in '95, Piven.
Piven: Stupid, stinky grungers. Plus, Chris Cornell taking pictures of me picking up my teeth, laughing!
Drake and Ashton are both slow getting up; Williams out of desperations, makes a running start...
Corkscrew Senton on Drake, nearly sending both men crashing into the guardrail!
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Both competitors are sprawled out, as Dean starts counting to 20. Williams is up first; he tries to whip Drake into the ring-post, but Drake reverse the Irish Whip, and Williams ends up eating a face full of steel post!
Piven: I bet Williams is fucking ecstatic about how good EWC's dental insurance is after that!
Drake locks up a staggering Williams....
CRASH!
T-Bone Suplex by Drake sends Williams's crashing through the steel barricade!
Aiello: Good Lord; he could've broken Williams in half with that suplex!
Heart: Fun fact...EWC spends almost as much money every year on new guard-rails as the city of Omaha spends on public transportation!
Aiello: Is that really true?
Heart: *pfft* Of course not; You know better than to trust me on grappa. I once convinced you that really hairy mole on your back was a rare strain of melanoma all sauced up.
Aiello; Geez...back to the action...
Before Dean can count to 20, Drake rolls into the ring, and rolls back out. He flings Williams into the ring, and climbs back in. Drake attempts his signature finisher, the Death Note, but Williams frantically punches at Drake's sides, causing him to release the hold. Williams with a straight boot to Drake's midsection; Drake catches his foot, and takes an enziguri to the face for his trouble. Williams, staggering, climbs the turnbuckle, goes for the frog splash...
Drake puts up his knees, and bounces off Drake like a basketball, clutching his midsection in agony.
Heart: Split second thinking saved Drake from getting flattened from above.
Aiello: Both combatants are down; how much more can either take at this point.
Drake's on his feet first; he attempts to throw Williams down for his version of the Anaconda Vince, The Machine...
WIlliams struggles free, and from out of nowhere...LIGHTS OUT! Cover by Williams...

No! Kickout by Drake!

Piven: The lights are still on in the Drake house; I thought that would have done him in for sure!
Williams is stunned; he slaps his hands down on the mat over and over in frustration, then regains his cool. Williams goes back up top, while Drake stumbles up to his feet. Willaims leaps down on him, about to drop a diving elbow, but Drake catches him with a right in the abdomen. He turns Williams around...DEATH NOTE! Cover by Drake...

Heart: Oh, no they're just playing with everybody's emotions at this point!
Aiello: Neither wrestler cold pull the trigger on the other with their finisher; what do they need to do to seal the deal?
Piven: I know what I need to do...*burp*...pour me another drank!!
The crowd is into it, cheering both men on to get up and continue the fight. John Dean continues to count to ten. He reaches nine when both fighters stagger to their feet, trading punches with each other. Drake winds up on the right end of the exchange temporarily, knocking Williams into the turnbuckle and landing combos. But Drake misses with a spear attempt into he corner, hitting the post shoulder first with vicious impact. Williams, with some troubles, climbs the turnbuckle. Williams is airborne, catching Drake with a cross body...
They both attempt to roll each other into a package, and John Dean makes the count...

Piven: Wait; maybes it's the grappa affecting my vision, but...did both men just pin each other at the same time?
Aiello: Yeah...yes they did! From our view on replay, both Ashton Drake and Kenneth Williams had their shoulders down for the count.
Heart: Oh, boy...classic double pinfall controversy. Grab yourself a cup of guido moonshine, JoJo...we could be here for awhile sorting this out!
Drake and Ashton wait impatient, jabbering with officials and each other as Dean and Paul Turner review the foot over, and over, and over again. They conference with each other, then Dean makes the announcement to Jessica, who walks into the ring, and...
Stroup: After official review, your winner, via pinfall....ASHTON DRAKE
The decision certainly has rankled some feathers; Drake and Williams have to be separated after they both start verbal ripping into each other, followed up by pushing. They keep jawing at each other as officials separate them, trying to prevent a fight.
Piven: Oh, those degenerate pud-pullers in the Twitter-sphere are gonna be griping about this worse than the last person that blocked them. Drake continues his winning ways here in the EWC in impressive fashion, but Williams must be angry with himself tonight.
Aiello: This feud isn't over by any means; Williams and Drake are still trading verbal barbs at each other. This hotly contested call could be the jump-off for an explosive new high profile feud. We'll be right back after security handles this, and a few words from our sponsor...
*takes a sip* Wow...this stuff is pretty good, Ace!
COMMERCIAL BREAK
RINGSIDE
We return to see the cage hanging over us high above the Rexall Place in Edmonton as Monday Night Brawl continues onward. The crowd is pumped while cameras get shots of them holding up their many signs for the evening. We cut to see our announce team sitting at ringside.
Aiello: Ladies and gentlemen. As you can see high above us. Still to come is the main event. We're talking about Mark Storm and the current International Champion, Tony Savage in a non-title match inside a steel cage match. It should be really surprising treat for fans.
Piven: You can expect these two to rip each other apart. Especially with Night of Champions XIII looming in the back of everyone's mind. Everyone wants to impress the boss.
A low tone beat mixed with an electronic guitar sounds through the arena for a few seconds before going full force over the sound system. Cameras get a close up of the giant screen as the Anti-Starlet logo is presented in 3D to a roar within the EWC Universe. A video package plays a montage with clips of Alexis Morrison backstage and matches in the company. This all leads to a fading transition to the entrance way. Alexis walks out of smoke wearing her leather jacket, her blonde hair fell behind the woman, and she walks down the aisle.
Piven: What in the world is Alexis Morrison doing out here?! This isn't Rampage. Look. I get it, both Michael Saint and President Mac are bald men. They have similarities. However, this isn't that second-rank clown factory Friday Night Rampage. We're the top brand here, babe.
Aiello: Did you just call the woman who ended Metal Black's United States reign a babe? You do realize she can brutally assault you with weapons, right? I say she can do whatever she wants.
Piven: I stand by my statement.
She stops, looks at the ring for a moment, circles it, then immediately goes patting the steel steps showing her respect to those who passed on before walking up these steps and climbing into the ring. Alexis Morrison cuts straight toward the opposite side of the Brawl ring asking for the microphone from the ring announcer, Jessica Stroup. A series of Anti-Starlet chants are combined with claps as the woman goes to the center of the ring, flipping the middle of her hair back. She takes a few moments before addressing everyone to soak it all in from fans.
ALEXIS MORRISON
“Let me first say congratulations to Shelley Silver on becoming the new EWC United States Champion after a long battle a few weeks ago against myself. I know that she could make the belt continue to mean something after the work me and Metal Black put in place every night we've stepped into that ring defeating countless opponents after being crowned such an honor.”
The Anti-Starlet of Professional Wrestling lowers the microphone. Her nods as the EWC Universe cheers what was said. She angles her head downward pushing her hair behind her ear very naturally before speaking once more to the people in Edmonton.
ALEXIS MORRISON
“You might be asking yourselves just what a Friday Night Rampage Superstar is doing standing inside a Monday Night Brawl ring. There isn't a joint promotion until next month at the Toyota Center in Houston for Night of Champions XIII. Well, it's simple, really.”
Piven: Yeah. I would like to know that, too.
She starts continuing. Lifting her head back toward the crowd. Instantly getting crowds again. You can clearly see I'm in casual clothing and had a new Anti-Starlet tee. Available now at EWC Shop.
ALEXIS MORRISON
“After Scars and Stripes officially went off the air on pay-per-view. Michael Saint called me into his office to discuss something I was passionate about since the diabolical involving himself and another Superstar named Griffin Hawkins. That discussion was about my transfer to Monday Night Brawl.”
A loud pop happens.
Joe Aiello: WHAT?! Alexis Morrison has signed with Monday Night Brawl?! This is big news for wrestling fans all over the world. It certainly means something to these people. Can you imagine the matches she could have here every week?
ALEXIS MORRISON
“It was something that I wanted despite the fact Michael Saint didn't want me to leave. It was something that I sitting back on the road in England for a good long stretch thinking about my options for a while. During this whole ordeal I get a call from President Mac on an offer I couldn't pass up. He heard about my request. An opportunity to become part of an legendary brand like this one. Yeah, it was something that I felt needed in my career to experience new competition, new chances to prove why many consider me one of the best wrestlers in the business.”
The EWC Universe still can't believe the overwhelming news they just heard. They are completely speechless. She walks around the ring for a bet doing a mini doughnut pacing herself. Every move made had weight being bought down upon the wrestling mat as she walked on it.
ALEXIS MORRISON
“Now I realize that Monday Night Brawl has some of the more heavy hitters. Like most places I've been apart of since I started wrestling most of them are bigger and have more power under their belt than normal size guy. Let me make it clear. I have been known to chop now trees before. I'm not a afraid to do it again no matter who they think they are. It doesn't matter if I'm standing in the ring with Tony Savage, Harlow Kinsley all the way up to bigger guys like a man called Titan. I might be married to a giant myself, but I damn sure don't fight like a house wife.”
Alexis Morrison stopped pacing for a moment. She turned her head toward the cameras placed in front of her view and looked dead center into those cameras. We zoom for a close-up shot.
ALEXIS MORRISON
“All I'm saying is this. After all the smoke clears and the wars have been fought I'm going to continue my domination that I started on Friday Night Rampage until one day I reach the top. Until one second later I reach my ultimate destination. Xplode and the EWC Undisputed Championship. Don't worry. I don't want handouts that I didn't earn. It doesn't matter if it's naturally or if I have to throw every last EWC Superstar over the rope at this year's Rumble in the Bronx. I'm working my way to you. And then, Xplode. Then we'll see if size does matter. So, do a girl a solid. Keep that belt warm for me and not lose to the pretty, yet crazy girl who wears a mask. Because soon you're mine.”
She says with a smirk. Her brand new music hits the arena before long as Alexis Morrison walks back to the opposite side of the ring to hand Jessica the microphone back.
Suddenly, the video screen above the entrance flickers... and then it clears up... showing the EWC Undisputed Champion, XPLODE!!!
Alexis is shown with a surprised look on her face as Xplode begins to laugh loudly..
Suddenly, the video screen above the entrance flickers... and then it clears up... showing the EWC Undisputed Champion, XPLODE!!!
Alexis is shown with a surprised look on her face as Xplode begins to laugh loudly..
Xplode
Are you really asking me whether size matters or not on live television?! Lady, if that is your big question, then you obviously haven't found the right guy yet. The big question that you SHOULD be asking yourself is whether or not you are the first person to stand in my ring and say those things about me? I mean.. let's be straight here? When you woke up this morning and tucked your penis between your legs and applied that wig.. did you really think that anyone would watch you tonight and actually see you as a threat to my championship? Do you really think that you have a chance against me?
The fans begin to get loud as Alexis is visibly angry in the ring. Xplode laughs and places the EWC Undisputed Championship on the table in front of him, leaving it fully visible.
Xplode
If you want to have a shot at winning this strap, you need to do less talking and more ass kicking, Alexis. Stop making the same tired mistakes that many others have before you and just get it done in that damn ring. As of right now, you aren't on my level. Hell, you aren't even on Savage or Kinsley's level! What you are... is comic relief. This is the EWC, Alexis. No one gives a damn about what backyard, low budget, company you sprang out of. You may have been a big fish on Rampage.... but on this brand, you are nothing more than a little fish in an entire ocean... and I am the predator that feeds from that ocean. Welcome to Monday Night Brawl, Alexis.
The screen flickers and then completely shuts down. The fans shout loudly as Alexis paces the ring, her face visibly angered. The audience around her shout out their responses. Rolling out of the ring, Alexis heads up the ramp way as her theme song begins to play loudly.
Aiello: Wow... I bet Morrison didn't think that the champ was actually listening
Piven: That's how it is, here on Brawl. Anything can happen.. at any moment. Though, Xplode tends to only focus on legitimate challengers for his World Championship, so that says something about Morrison in hindsight. Regardless, I think that she will do fine here on Mondays. I am certainly glad to see her!
Aiello: We will return after these messages!
NON TITLE - CAGE MATCH
MARK STORM
Vs TONY SAVAGE
The crowd looks on as the steel cage is lowered from the ceiling for the main event.
Aiello: We’ve got something special coming up fans, Mark Storm and Tony Savage inside a STEEL CAGE!
Piven: Yes, ever wanted to know what would happen if you put Mark Storm inside a room with four walls, this is it. And Savage is going to be locked in there with that wack-a-do… I do not envy him.
Aiello: But Savage is dangerous as well, and we could have a massacre on our hands tonight fans. Well, the cage has lowered and inside is Jessica Stroup ready to introduce the combatants.
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and Gentlemen the following contest is your MAIN EVENT of the evening and is a STEEL CAGE MATCH!
The crowd ERUPTS!!!
The lights in the arena begin to dim and the EWC audience rise to their feet, as the nostalgic melody of "Paradise Circus" by Massive Attack begins to play through the PA speakers. Smoke begins to rise from the stage and the audience begin to applaud, as emerging from the clouded mist is the self proclaimed "reckoning of professional wrestling" - Mark Storm, who stands tall at the top of the entrance ramp. A smile is plastered on his face as he marvels at the scenery, embracing all the cheers as he closes his eyes and widens his arms before coming down the ramp.
Jessica Stroup: From New York, Brooklyn; weighing in a two hundred and twenty seven pounds.. He is the reckoning of professional wrestling.. ladies and gentlemen give it up for, MARRKKKK STORMMMMMM!
Standing by the edge of the ring, he lets out a triumphant roar, with the audience roaring back to him as he jumps onto the apron before he slingshots his way over the top rope. Dressed in his usual wrestling attire; consisting on black boots, with black knee pads, wrestling trunks with his name written on them and with stars coming down both sides, tape wrapped around his elbows, and mixed martial arts styled gloves. He falls to his knees in the middle of the ring, looking up at the heavens as his theme music slowly begins to fade out.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent…
No pyro, no fancy light show. Just the roar of a Harley Davidson Fat Boy tuned to perfection, which Tony revs up before he cruises down the entrance ramp.
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and Gentlemen, now making his way into the ring, from Atlantic City, N.J., via Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in at 245 lbs.... EWC's official bail bondsman....The Atlanta Falcon....TONY SAVAGE!
Tony stops the bike next to the announcers table, revving the engine to the delight of fans nearby, and to the chagrin of that piece of shit Piven and his eardrums. He parks the bike, EWC's security crew takes temporary custody of Tony's weapons and search him, then, jumps into the ring still in street clothes, cracking his knuckles and ready to fight.
Aiello: These two are going to literally rip each other apart inside this cage.
Piven: I’m just glad they are locked in there, it’s almost a guarantee they would have broken our table.
Savage and Storm circle each other in the ring, each of them staring the other down before this thing gets underway. The ref on the outside of the cage closes the door and seals it shut as the bell rings and we are underway!
DING DING DING
These two Immediately go after each other as they unload a fury of punches at each other! Neither giving way to the other! Storm head butts Savage it up and then grabs Savage by the head and immediately goes to slam his head into the side of the cage! But it’s too early and Savage grabs the cage blocking it. Storm again goes for it, but Savage blocks it again giving Storm an elbow to the chin for his troubles. He grabs Storm and rolls him with a snapmare and locks in a rear chin lock, wrenching Storm’s neck but Storm quickly gets to his feet and gives Savage three elbows to the midsection to break the hold he goes to hit the ropes but Savage grabs him by the hair and slams him down to the mat! Storm gets to one knee and then back to his feet just in time to see Savage bouncing off the opposite ropes who times a perfect SPEER! He mounts Storm and begins to rain down on him with hammer punches!
Aiello: This has been all Savage early on, but many a match has started this way only to turn the corner.
Piven: I wouldn’t be too worried about Storm, I’m pretty sure this is the sorta thing he looks for in the sack.
As Savage continues to rain down punches on his opponent, Storm absorbs the blows and reaches up and locks Savage in a front face lock! The ref is in position and Storm has it locked in perfectly! But Savage is too close to the ropes and he reaches over and grabs the ropes and the ref calls for the break. Putting some distance between them, a winded Mark Storm looks to catch his wind back in the corner, but Savage charges from theotherside, but only to get a boot to the face from Storm! As Savage bounces back Storm quickly grabs him and suplexes him into the corner! Storm catches his breath his hands on his knees as he walks over and gives Savage a couple stomps to the skull for good measure. He drags Savage to the middle of the ring and goes for a cover!
One!

Two!

Kickout!
Aiello: Like you said early Jeremy, Storm with one move has gotten himself back into this one.
Piven: Sometimes one move is all it takes.
This time Storm picks up Savage and goes for the cage wall once again, and this time Savage hits the cage with full force and bounces off, Storm grabs him again and runs him into the otherside of the cage! Savage falls to the mat with a crash, on his hands and knees trying to get his barrings. Storm grabs Savage and locks in an inverted camel clutch! Rolling onto his back to get the maximum amount of torque on the spine! The ref is right there to make the call should Savage give it up, but Savage fights with all his strength his arms flailing trying to grab anything but there is no where to go! He reaches back and gives Storm three sharp elbows to his ribs managing to get him to break the hold. Savage is back on his hands and knees trying to catch his breath as he was nearly choked out, Storm steps back looking to punt Savage’s head into the front row, but just as he goes for the kick Savage moves out of the way and he swipes his arm under the leg, Storm falls to the mat as Savage immediately goes back to the head as he rains down punches on Storm, as he tries to cover up. Savage gets up waving for Storm to make it to his feet as he stalks him. Storm gets up and walks right into a boot to the mid section from Savage followed up by a thunderous DDT! This time Savage picks up Storm and walks him over to the cage smashing his face up against the fence raking his forehead over it… back and forth… the camera gets a close up as you can see the flesh being ripped from Storms forehead as Savage opens him up! Savage releases Storm and allows him to fall to the mat to see his own blood dripping to the mat.
Aiello: This looks like a battle between a prison guard and an inmate!
Piven: Well… That’s kinda what it is…
As Storm rolls over on his back as blood begins to flow, Savage walks over and puts his boot on the throat of Storm, as he yells for him to stay down! He follows this up, by stomping on the head of Storm! He picks him up off the mat, and walks him over to the corner turnbuckle where he proceeds to slam Storm’s head down on the top turnbuckle over and over again. Then he moves to the second turnbuckle and is relentless! He throws Storm back to the middle of the ring, who looks totally out of it. He considers going for the pin, but then smiles looking at the cage door.
Aiello: Looks like Savage is going to end this thing just by walking out the front door.
But Then he does something that no one expects… he grabs Storm by the arm dragging him over to the door, standing behind him he orders the ref to open the door.
Piven: What the hell is he doing???
The ref conplies and opens it, he too confused as to why he would let Storm crawl out and win, but that’s exactly what Storm does… A dazed and confused Mark Storm drags himself toward the door trying to escape… but then Savage with a foot to the midsection rolls Storm over and SLAMS THE STEEL CAGE DOOR SHUT ON THE HEAD OF MARK STORM!!!
Aiello: OH DEAR GOD!
Piven: Brutal!
The crowd goes nuts at the clunking sound of Storm’s head crashed between the cage door and the wall, just for good measure Savage does it ONE MORE TIME!!!
The crowd ERUPTS!!!
“EWC!!!”
“EWC!!!”
“EWC!!!”
Savage pulls Storm back to the middle of the ring, and walks over to the cage door.
Aiello: Thank god this one is over… This level of brutality is too much for even me.
Piven: Um… I don’t think that’s what he’s doing…
Savage slams the cage door shut ordering the ref to seal it once more, walks over to Savage bloodied and not moving in the middle of the ring. He hooks his leg, and Storm coils up motionless…
Aiello: Well it’s still over…
The crowd counts along…
“ONE!!!”
.
.
.
.
“TWO!!!”
.
.
.
.
“THRE— OHHHH!!! YEEEAAHHHH!!!!”
KICKOUT AT THE LAST SECOND!!!
Aiello: I don’t believe it!!! Storm kicked out!!!
Piven: That crazy son of a bitch!
Savage just stands up shaking his head, almost laughing as Storm grabs at Savage trying to pull himself to his feet. Savage looks down at Storm, giving him the throat slash gesture… and Storm follows up with a gesture of his own as he flips Savage the double bird and then nails a HARD low blow!!! Savage falls to his knees!!! Storm gets to his feet, looking around, as the dazed look on his face turns to one of complete rage! He whips the blood from his face and flicks it down on Savage!
Aiello: I don’t know how but Storm seems to be completely back in this thing!
Savage starts to make his way back to his feet, and Storm springboards off the ropes and hits the STORM SEARCH!!! He goes for the cover!
One!!!
.

Two!!!

Kickout from Savage!!!
Storm gets up and flips his head back as blood runs freely down his face, he looks down at Savage and spits blood down on him. Savage gets to his feet, and Storm hits the ropes and ducks under a clothsline from Savage who turns around into the sling blade from Storm! Storm has got all the momentum now as Savage bounces back to his feet, just to get a series of elbow strikes from Storm!
Aiello: Storm seems to have gotten some sort of energy serge I can’t believe what I am seeing!
Piven: Nothing shocks me in the EWC anymore.
Storm grabs Savage and slings him into the corner turnbuckle as Savage hits them and with a clunk hits them with full force and bounces back out! Only to get hit with a running dropkick from Storm! Savage falls to a seated position, and Storm hits the ropes and comes back and almost kicks Savage’s face off! He follows that up with a face wash with the bottom of his boot, and grabs him by the head and spins him around and hooks him for a german suplex! He nails it but doesn’t let go of his grip! He lifts Savage again and hits a second on! Holding his grip he hits a THIRD german to Savage and lets go. Savage stands up and falls to one knee, seemingly to lose steam because of the loss of blood. He looks back at Savage and then at the Cage wall, and begins to slowly scale the cage wall. He almost makes it to the top when Savage gets up and follows him up. They both get to the top of the cage as they hold on trading punches, Savage grabs Storm by his bloody hair and slams his face down on the top of the cage wall, and Storm wobbles, and Savage follows it up with another slam of his head on the top of the steel cage! This time Storm goes completely limp and falls from the cage to the middle of the ring. Savage looks down at Storm and then looks around at the crowd, and pulls a chain out of his pocket! The crowd ERUPTS!
“YES!!!”
“YES!!!”
“YES!!!”
“YES!!!”
Savage climbs to the tallest part of the cage, wrapping the chain around his hand, looking around the arena as Storm gets to one knee, he waits for the perfect moment and then leaps from the top of the cage just as Storm gets to his feet!!!
Piven: INCOMING!!!
Storm catches it out of the corner of his eye at the last second and jumps nailing his knee into the skull of Savage!!! With a modified DYSTOPIA!!!
Aiello: WHAT THE HELL?
The crowd ERUPTS!!!
“HOLY SHIT!!!”
“HOLY SHIT!!!”
“HOLY SHIT!!!”
The two men crash to the mat! Savage is out cold as Storm… Somewhat out of it… looks around and then starts to slowly drag himself over to Savage and puts one arm over him!
“ONE!!!”
.
.
.
.
“TWO!!!”
.
.
.
.
THREE!!!!
DING! DING! DING!
Aiello: This brutal battle is over and Storm had to pull out some of his most brutal tactics to win this one!
Piven: I’m not sure, if Storm didn’t see Savage at the last minute this could have gone the other way! Savage could be seriously hurt, did you see the way that his face came down on Storm’s knee??? From that hight!!!
Jessica Stroup: Here is your winner… MARK STORM!!!
Storm barely makes it to his feet, as the ref raises his hand, as Savage lays motionless on the mat. The cage slowly starts to raise.
Aiello: What a night of incredible action here tonight! But we are out of time! For myself Joe Aiello and for Jeremy Piven! Goodnight ladies and gentlemen, we will see you next week in Winnipeg!!!
