A chant begins of
"MNB!"
"MNB!"
"MNB!"
"MNB!"
A thick layer of fog circles the arena, and camera flashes repeatedly strobe the area!
The camera feed pans to different areas in the arena and we see fans cheering in excitement!
The fans are shown smiling, laughing, and pumping their fists in excitement
as fireworks emit from each corner of the ring!
A thick layer of fog surrounds the fans from the firework display.

The show is live... and the excitement is at a fever pitch!
Signs can be seen all over the arena, some reading
"N-S! F-W! G-O! L-D!"
"Candy is still Sweet!"
"LEVIATHAN SCARES ME"
"HAPPY CAN RULE MY X-DIVISION"
"Ace King Rules!"
"EWC4LIFE"
and "We Want Wolfe!"
Aiello: Good evening, everybody! Welcome to the Barclays Center and the first Monday Night BRAWL since Rumble in the Bronx! We are going to jump right into things! "Doc" Hollister is on his way to the ring with a few announcements! What a night last Monday was!
Carter: That's right! I know "Doc" is going to address some things, so we won't steal his thunder. But we've got a great night planned for you tonight!
Aiello: Let's go to our Assistant General Manager in the ring!
"Doc": Good Evening, Everybody! What a night we had last week here in the NYC area! We've had the pleasure of spending the entire week in New York City and let me tell you... this city knows how to treat the superstars! Everything has been buzzing about Rumble in the Bronx and with anticipation for tonight's Monday Night BRAWL! Now... I've got some good news and some bad news to share here tonight.
Aiello: Bad news? I wonder what this is all about.
"Doc": First, I will share the bad news so we can continue on with the show on a high note. We have a match scheduled for tonight between The Limit...
The crowd erupts into boos.
"Doc": And Freaks... well, Iggy Swango and Dream Weaver.
The crowd cheers for the Foxy Ladies.
"Doc": Unfortunately, that match is being postponed by one week and will take place next week from the Capital One Arena in Washington D.C.
The crowd boos their displeasure.
"Doc": Due to some unforeseen circumstances involving both tag teams, none of the participants were able to make the trip to Brooklyn for tonight's match. But that is quite alright! We will make it up to you. In the first of the surprises here tonight, I would like to announce that we have been listening. Yes. We have heard what people have had to say over the past week and we know what the people want! So, tonight when NSFW and Los Amantes square off... NSFW has agreed to put their newly-won EWC Tag Team Championships on the line!
The crowd erupts into cheers.
Aiello: Wow! An impromptu Tag Team Championship match!
Bennett: Good! Get those straps off those no-good champions!
"Doc": But that's not all... As you know, tonight has been all about getting hardcore. We've got several X-Division-style matches on the docket. Moving into Hardcore Revolution, we on Monday Night BRAWL have thought all week about this and talked to the fans. What better way to move into Hardcore Revolution than by highlighting our brand new EWC X-Division Champion?! So, Happy and Kendrick Kross will now be competing in this evenings MAIN EVENT!
The crowd cheers again.
"Doc": Surely, this will be a great evening! And it's going to be hardcore. You're going to see weapons and blood and rivalries, both new and old. You'll see it here in a few moments when Rob Garcia...
Boos from the Brooklyn crowd.
"Doc": Takes on the EWC International Champion Griffin Hawkins in a non-title match! And we are absolutely loving the rivalry there, folks. In fact... at Hardcore Revolution later this month, Griffin Hawkins will OFFICIALLY put the EWC International Championship on the line when he takes on Rob Garcia once more!
The crowd cheers.
Carter: Finally! Guys, I've been waiting for this one!
Bennett: It's about time that the ReMnant gets what he deserves! Taking that piece of gold off of the stringy-haired loud-mouth!
"Doc": Last thing. IF Kendrick Kross beats Happy tonight, then he has earned himself a shot at the EWC X-Division Championship at Hardcore Revolution! Of course, that's not the only X-Division match here tonight. We've got Joe Doe, Emma Louise, and Anthony Grunge squaring off in a Falls Count Anywhere Triple Threat. The winner of that match will face off with a man that, well... not many people want to face off with these days. They will take on Leviathan next week on Monday Night BRAWL! We certainly hope you all enjoy your evening. I know I will!
"American Idiot" begins playing again as "Doc" hands Stroup the microphone. He begins walking away as we once again focus in on the announcers' table.
Aiello: What a night we have in store! On top of all of that, Clay Byrd defends the EWC Television Championship against Killian DeVille! Don't go anywhere! Our first contest is NEXT!
The scene quickly cuts to the backstage area. The parking lot to be exact. When a limo pulls up to the talents entrance to the arena. The chauffeur gets out of the driver's seat and heads over to the back door. He opens up the back door and Jeff Noon exits the car. He looks a bit worried shaking his head. He gets out and waits a minute and then turns to see if his friend has gotten out the car yet.
Jeff: You gonna be all right?
Just then Ace Heart comes walking up with mic in hand. Jeff turns to see Ace and rolls his eyes.
Jeff: What the hell do you want, Ace?
Ace: What the hell do I want? Well, I'd like to know why you're showing up this late to the show?! Garcia has a match coming up very soon!
Just as Jeff is about to answer, Rob Garcia struggles to get out the car. He looks a bit pale. He puts his coat on and is about to walk past Ace.
When he stops dead in his tracks. He then runs over to a trash can and starts throwing up into it. Ace looks disgusted.
Ace: Is… Is he gonna be okay?
Jeff looks at Ace angry and shakes his head.
Jeff: Can't you see?! Rob obviously had the flu! He's sick! I tried to call Victor Price, but that asshole said Rob had to wrestle tonight!
Ace looks over at Rob who is still throwing up in the trash can and shivers. He looks like it's making him sick to watch this.
Jeff: Now if you don't mind! I need to get my boy ready for his match, beat it Ace..
Ace looks at Jeff, then back to Rob and then slowly creeps away. Jeff watches him walk away and then walks over to Rob as we cut to a message from EWCTV.

SINGLES MATCH (NON-TITLE)
NO DISQUALIFICATION
ROB GARCIA
VS GRIFFIN HAWKINS
VS GRIFFIN HAWKINS
Aiello: And we are back and it's time for action! Guys, Rob Garcia didn't look too good.
Bennett: I bet you that Hawkins poisoned his food! That's so low!
Carter: Jeff Noon said it's the flu.
Bennett: I'm skeptic!
Stroup: The following contest is a No Disqualification match and it is for one fall!
The spotlight shines on a young man who seems to be playing a guitar on stage. After playing a long interrupted solo...he strokes the guitar in one fell swoop, setting off the pyro's on stage! The lights come on to reveal Griffin Hawkins! He has his guitar in hand as "Made In Hell" by Rob Halford blasts in. He walks down the ramp, carrying his guitar as he slaps hands with a few fans. Signs reading "Griffin Rocks!" and "EWC gets Metal!" are seen as he comes down the ramp. He sets his guitar by the steps and gets in the ring.
Storup: Introducing first... from Windsor, Ontario, Canada... weighing 227 pounds... he is the EWC International Champion! GRIFFIN HAWKIIIIINS!
He then proceeds to get on the ropes, taking the International Championship off of his waist and raises it in the air as the crowd cheers him on. Soon he gets off the ropes, taking off his denim vest with various band patches on it off and sets it out of the ring. He gets out of the ring and goes to the front row, putting his aviator sunglasses on a young fan.
Aiello: The International Champion is stepping into the ring for the first time in awhile, minus the unsanctioned affair he had last week at Rumble in the Bronx.
Bennett: I don't know anything about that. I wasn't watching.
Carter: You didn't watch Rumble in the Bronx?
Bennett: Hell no! I had better things to do!
After Hawkins gets into the ring, he waits for Rob Garcia. The arena goes dark except for the fans cell phones... 🎵I wear a mean dark pair of shades.. 🎵 plays throughout the arena and the crowd errupts in boos! "Ballin" hits and the lights come on! Rob Garcia is standing at the top of the stage with Jeff Noon at his side. Rob is looking pretty ill, but he is going through with this anyway. He looks around at the crowd with a forced cocky grin upon his face. Rob slowly looks around at the crowd and then shakes his head in disgust as Jeff focuses on the ring. Jeff, who is wearing a surgical mask, whispers something to Rob and Rob nods his head and they start ro walk towards the ring taking their time.
Stroup: And his opponent... from Beverly Hills, California... weighing 245 pounds... ROB GARCIAAAA!
Rob stops to talk trash to a fan, nearly vomiting on them, and then marches to the ring and slowly slides in and gets to his feet. He walks to his corner where Jeff Noon is waiting. Jeff starts to whisper advice into Rob's ear as they stare ahead waiting for the match to start.
Bennett: What a brave man! Going through with this! It's unbelievable what this man is doing!
Carter: Oh give me a break. He's not Michael Jordan!
Aiello: Needless to say, Hawkins looks ready and Garcia looks... well... not so good.
DING DING DING
Jeff Noon exits the ring. Despite the surgical mask, he has a look of concern you can see in his eyes. Garcia sluggishly walks to the middle of the ring to go face-to-face with Hawkins. Garcia provides what some may consider the first offensive maneuver when he coughs in Hawkins' face. Hawkins, smelling vomit on Garcia's breath, steps back grabbing at his nose.Bennett: What a move by Garcia!
Carter: A move? He coughed...
Bennett: And just gave Hawkins the flu! That's going to beat Hawkins from the inside-out for a week!
Hawkins steps back towards Garcia, who throws a haymaker at Hawkins. Hawkins ducks and kicks Garcia right in the gut. Garcia's body lurches forward and Garcia vomits on Hawkins' feet!
Aiello: Oh God! That is nasty!
Bennett: Gave him the flu AND a reason to spend $200 on a new pair of ugly ass shoes! Garcia is dominating this match!
Hawkins steps backwards with a frustrated look on his face. Garcia wipes his mouth with the back of his hand. As he does this, Hawkins nails him with the SHOT IN THE DARK! Garcia crashes down to the mat, landing in his own puddle of vomit. Hawkins uses his boot to roll Garcia over and then covers him with a boot on the chest.

Stroup: Here is your winner... GRIFFIN HAWKINS!Aiello: Well, that was quick.
Carter: Rob Garcia was clearly in no shape to wrestle here tonight.
Bennett: I still think he got the upper hand on Hawkins! The flu ain't no joke!
"Made in Hell" plays as Jeff Noon puts on rubber gloves and begins helping his friend out of the ring. As a crew comes to clean the vomit up we cut to a quick commercial break.
X-DIVISION TRIPLE THREAT MATCH
FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE
EMMA LOUISE
VS JOE DOE
VS ANTHONY GRUNGE
VS JOE DOE
VS ANTHONY GRUNGE
Aiello: Welcome back, folks! We have an exciting match coming up between Emma Louise, Joe Doe, and the returning Anthony Grunge! Let's go to Jessica in the ring!
Stroup: The following contest is a Triple Threat Match and it is Falls Count Anywhere!
"Get Lucky" by Daft Punk begins to play on the P.A. System as Anthony Grunges walks out from the back. Grunge is wearing pink goggle like glasses and has his hair permed. He’s wearing a sparkling jacket filled with rhinestones. He begins making his way to the ring.
Stroup: Introducing first from Hollywood, California... Anthony GRUNGE!
Aiello: Anthony Grunge is making a return after he's been on the shelf with an injury.
Carter: And this is no easy return. A Triple Threat with Joe Doe and Emma Louise? Say what you want about any of these three... they're all tough competitors.
Grunge slides into the ring after placing his father's Singapore cane at ringside. He goes over to a corner and waits for the next person. 'Neo Geo' plays and Emma Louise dances through the curtain. She doesn't wave to the crowd like normal. She walks, half dancing, to the ring as she goes slipping feet first through the ropes like an envelope before laying suggestively over the top rope.
Stroup: And one of his opponents... from London, England... EMMAAAA LOUIIIISE!
Aiello: Guys, Emma Louise has had her ups-and-downs lately. But she swears by this masked or hooded friend of hers that he has the answers to her success.
Bennett: Oh yeah. All the answers. Like up, down, left, right, hold A, start!
Carter: What?
Bennett: I don't know. I heard somewhere she likes Sonic the Hedgehog!
Aiello: Whatever it is, she hopes to walk away with a win tonight!
The song Three Little Birds starts playing and Joe comes in, stands and smiles at the fans. Joe starts jumping up before running to the ring while giving high fives to some fans.
Stroup: And their opponent... from Johannesburg, South Africa... JOOOOOOOE DOOOOOOOOE!
Aiello: Joe Doe is looking for a signature win tonight.
Bennett: The only thing signature about him is his ability to be in great shape!
Carter: His confidence must be up, Steve. He looks like he's in the best shape of his life here tonight!
He reaches the ring, climbs the ropes and raises both arms. His music fades and we are ready to go!
DING DING DING
Joe Doe and Anthony Grunge look across the ring from each other. Emma Louise steps out of the ring and to the announcers’ table. As Grunge and Doe stare each other down, Emma slides back into the ring with a steel chair in tow. The two men look at her and then at each other. Not to be outdone, they exit the ring opposite of each other. Emma looks around at both men to see what they are going to bring into the ring. Grunge grabs his father’s Singapore cane and slides in. Joe Doe is looking under the ring for an extended period of time. Finally, he pops back out with a baseball bat. Doe slides into the ring and the three face each other.Aiello: And they all have weapons. This one could start fast and furious!
Bennett: I hope they all beat the piss out of each other!
Doe swings the bat at Emma, who deflects it with the chair. As she deflects, Grunge swings his stick at Emma’s face. Her peripherals allow her to duck just in time, as all three objects collide in the air. Emma jams the top of the chair into Grunge’s gut, causing him to drop the cane, and then swings it down onto his upper back. Joe Doe jams the butt of the baseball bat into Grunge’s ribcage. The two drop their objects and begin stomping on Anthony Grunge.
Carter: A little teamwork here. It’s almost as if Emma and Joe realize that, if they take one person out of the equation, this fight is more than fair.
Bennett: You think these idiots think that logically? You might as well join them in that ring, Carter!
Doe grabs Emma by the head and tosses her outside of the ring. He follows closely behind as the two leave Grunge in the ring alone. Emma lands a boot to Doe’s midsection as he approaches her. He doubles over, allowing Emma to deliver a double-axe handle to Doe’s back. Suddenly, Grunge is to his feet and slings himself over the top rope and into a crossbody, taking Emma Louise down. He pops up to his feet and stomps on Doe’s back. He reaches under the ring and grabs a table, pulling it out.
Aiello: Here comes the lumber!
Grunge sets the table up by bridging it from the ring barrier to the ring apron. After setting up, he goes back over to Joe Doe and punches him in the face as he tries to get up. Emma Louise, before she gets off of the ground, reaches under the ring and pulls out a simple kendo stick. She sits on her rear and swings the stick at Grunge’s knee, buckling it and bringing him down to one leg. She swings upward and cracks him across the shoulder, a small fragment of the stick slicing open his shoulder.
Carter: First blood of the match is here. Anthony Grunge is the victim.
As blood starts to slowly drip down his arm, he rears back and delivers a hard kick to the side of Emma Louise’s head from one knee. Grunge finally gets up to his feet, but is met by a kick to the groin by Joe Doe.
Bennett: Thank God! That guy doesn’t need any kids.
Grunge walks away from Doe holding his crotch as Doe gets up to his feet. Once Grunge turns around, Doe runs and spears Grunge into the barricade! The barricade separates and the two go through and into the front row of a cheering New York crowd! Emma Louise is up to her feet now and she surveys the carnage. She climbs up onto the ring apron and faces the ring. She looks over her shoulder waiting for Joe Doe to get to his feet. Once he is finally up to his feet, she springboards off of the middle rope and into a moonsault on the outside! She stays in it for a cover.

Kickout by Joe Doe.
Aiello: First pinfall attempt goes to Emma Louise, but no success.
Bennett: Story of her life!
Carter: Stop it, Steve!
Emma gets back to her feet as she reaches into the ring and grabs her steel chair. She pulls it out and hoists it above her head. Just before she could come crashing down on Joe Doe’s back, Anthony Grunge comes out of nowhere and delivers a Superkick right under her jaw! The chair drops and Grunge covers.

Broken up by Joe Doe!
Doe pulls himself to his feet and grabs Grunge. The two begin to throw rights at each other and slug it out on the outside of the ring. Doe gains the upper hand and he shoves Grunge hard into the ring post, smacking the back of his head on the post. Grunge drops to the ground. Doe rolls Grunge over and goes into a cover.

Broken up by Emma Louise!
Aiello: How she is even up from that Superkick I don’t know!
Carter: She is such a tough, tough competitor!
Emma pulls Doe up to his feet, but Doe smacks her across the face and then nails her on the floor with the Goodnight! He looks down at her, knowing he could cover her, but then he looks up at the table.
Aiello: Don’t do this Joe!
Bennett: Joe Doe do what Joe Doe want!
Joe picks Emma up off of the floor and rolls her up onto the table. He slides into the ring and walks over to the corner. He climbs up to the top turnbuckle and surveys everything. He’s several feet above Emma Louise. Anthony Grunge is still out on the floor. He nods his head turns around to face away from Emma! He leaps off and crashes through Emma Louise and the table to the floor with Dreamland! He stays on top of Emma involuntarily and the referee counts.

Stroup: Here is your winner... JOOOOE DOOOOOE!Aiello: And Joe Doe gets a big win tonight!
Carter: Yeah, but you remember what "Doc" said earlier?
Bennett: That poor bastard has to face Leviathan next week! AHAHAHA!
Aiello: Joe Doe could be up for a huge challenge next week. No one really knows what state of mind Leviathan is in right now, but it can't be a good one. Folks, after these messages we have a great tag team match... and, as we found out earlier, the EWC Tag Team Championship will be on the line! Stay tuned!
We see Joe Doe slowly raising his arm in the air to celebrate his win as we fade to commercial.
TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
LOS AMANTES
VS NSFW
VS NSFW
Aiello: Been a wild BRAWL thus far but now it’s time to see if NSFW can escape from New York as Tag Team Champions.
Bennett: I can’t stand those two skinny sexual deviants one bit but if they can stick it to that filthy ginger and her pet rock, I’m all for it! Eat shit, NSFW!
Carter: You lack an ounce of professionalism, don’t you?
Aiello: "Doc" Hollister wanted to give these New York fans one more surprise. Earlier tonight, he heard what Los Amantes had to say and he agreed. NSFW will not “get a night off” as they said when this match was announced originally as a non-title affair. They will defend their newly won Tag Titles right now!
Stroup: The following match is scheduled for one fall and is for the EWC Tag Team Championship!
The arena goes dark until a lone red spotlight hits the stage where Liam is standing with an electric guitar. The short drum rift hits and Liam begins to play Santana's Smooth, singing out the lyrics until the first chorus hits and the red light bathes the arena as Romeo struts out onto stage, throwing his arms out as he strikes a pose a moment before quickly joined by a group of five scantily clad beautiful women.
Stroup: First, the challengers, weighing in at a combined weight of 342 pounds, Liam “The Rascal” Mason and Romeo Don Juan, LOS AMANTES!
The group flock around Romeo, moving to the music as they all head down the ramp to the ring. Liam follows as he continues to play and sing. Reaching the ring, Romeo heads up the steps and in through the ropes first before picking one of the lucky ladies to join him inside. Liam heads up the steps and enters the ring with the guitar. Romeo and the woman dance to the music until it reaches the crest. Romeo dips her down and Liam suddenly raises the guitar, smashing it apart on the canvas and the song instantly cuts and the lights return to normal. Romeo drops the girl who rolls out of the ring and the other women help her back up the ramp.
Aiello: Liam and Romeo live up to their names for sure. They’ve got quite an entourage.
Bennett: New York’s finest streetwalkers! I heard this is where Mike got her start!
Carter: Hey hey, you angling for a return to the ring with comments like that?
Bennett: Hell no! I wouldn’t touch that hussy with a ten foot pole.
Disturbed's cover of Land of Confusion begins to play and the house lights flash along with the beat of the song.
Mike McGuire and Bishop Church, clad in a clear plastic protective face mask, step out onto the stage. Mike points out for Bishop various fan signs for them. Side by side, they make their way down to the ring.
Stroup: Now on their way to the ring, at a combined weight of 400 pounds, the EWC Tag Team Champions, Mike McGuire and Bishop Church, N ...S ...F ...W!
Mike is in the ring bouncing back and forth to either side of the ring multiple times before John finally climbs up the ring steps. They meet in the middle of the ring and look to the crowd. With Bishop two steps behind, they both pose by standing on the second rope each with a title belt raised in the air.
Aiello: That’s new. Bishop has that clear protective face guard on after Grizzly Duggan broke his nose at the Rumble!
Bennett: What a freak.
Carter: Gotta admire the tenacity. NSFW had zero objections about defending their titles tonight. Los Amantes spoke up and in their debut they have the greatest opportunity in their careers.
Aiello: That’s right, Max. Liam and Romeo have the chance to do one in one night what took NSFW over five months to accomplish. By the end of this match, the division could be flipped on its head.
Senior official Paul Turner shows the belts to the challengers and then raises them both in the air.
He calls for the bell.
DING DING DING
Mike McGuire and Romeo Don Juan start this one out. Romeo steps to the center of the ring with no small amount of swagger, meeting his opponent in the center. Almost delicately, he takes her hand and kisses the back of it… only for it to be pulled away harshly, McGuire soundly slapping the would-be romantic right across the face!
Aiello: And Mike McGuire is having none of Romeo Don Juan’s romantic overtures!
Bennett: Of course not, she plays for the wrong goddamn team.
Carter: ...just when I think you can’t get any more vile, Steve, you top yourself. Who Mike likes or doesn’t like is none of your business. Can we just call the action, please?
Romeo’s expression melts from shock to consternation- he’s hardly used to being rebuffed by a woman. Mike puts up her dukes and tells Romeo to stop pouting and square up, and the two lock up in earnest. There’s a bit of a struggle for position, and at the end of it Romeo manages to cinch in a side headlock! He twists the headlock in a bit, amping up the pressure, but Mike reverses, the tag champ artfully stepping around, twisting Romeo’s arm in a reverse hammerlock. Don Juan gives a yelp in pain but keeps his wits about him- in a move that could be read either as cleverness or desperation, he reaches between his own legs with his free arm, grabs McGuire’s ankle, and yanks hard, tripping her up and forcing her to release her grip on his other arm.
Turning quickly, Romeo flips over Mike into a jackknife, wedging her to the mat and going for an early pin!
1
Mike bridges out of the pin quick as a wink, and twists Romeo around, looking for a backslide pin. He breaks free, though, rolling to his feet before hauling back with one foot and soccer kicking the champion right to the midsection! She crumples and Romeo goes immediately for another pin attempt.

Mike kicks out this time!
Aiello: Rampage Superstar Romeo don Juan is making quite a showing in his official EWC debut. So stick with me folks. Romeo is on Rampage. Liam is on Future Stars of Wrestling. But they’ve formed Los Amantes to compete on Monday Night Brawl. At this point, I have to say that Brawl is the defacto home of tag team wrestling.
Bennett: Suck it, Rampage!
Carter: That’s the first time you’ve said something I liked, Steve. Nothing wrong with a little intercompany rivalry.
Romeo steps back into his own corner, and Liam “The Rascal” Mason tags in to try his luck. Liam climbs up to the top turnbuckle, does a little hotdogging which produces a pop from some of the ladies in the crowd, and leaps off with a double axhandle smash to a rising Mike McGuire!
Quickly, Liam looks to capitalize by grabbing McGuire’s ankles, looking for his trademark Indian Deathlock variant, Stop Me! Mike kicks like a mule, sending him skidding back. The Rascal rebounds off the ropes and right into a drop toe hold from the red haired brawler. Liam, holding his jaw, is back up quickly but gets rocked with a forearm smash. Mike whips Liam into the NSFW and barrels into him with two knees to the chest. As she drops back to her feet, she tags in Church.
Aiello: Bishop Church doesn’t look to comfortable in that mask. Anything could be throwing off his equilibrium here.
Bennett: Good. He’s starting to get preachy like his soulless partner is.
Carter: I gotta say, Los Amantes are showing some good chemistry in their debut here. Romeo nearly got it done by all himsel early on.
Church scoops up Liam with ease and deposits him back on the mat with a body slam. Mike gets into the ring, they nod at each other and then Church gutwrenches Mike into the air and powerbombs her right onto Mason.
Aiello: There’s the Cherry Bomb from NSFW!
Mike rolls to the apron, smarting a little from the impact, as Church drops down for the corner.

The Rascal gets his shoulder up before the three count. Church doesn’t let up, he yanks the smaller man up to his feet and then smashes him back into the mat with a belly to belly suplex. The bigger half of NSFW surveys the situation, he adjusts the plastic guard on his face, and then with a running start goes for the knee strike on the just recovering Liam Mason.
The Rascal side steps the match ending blow and chop blocks Church from behind! Rascal peppers the big man with kicks and punches and then whips Bishop into the ropes. Romeo catches by the strap of his singlet and then gets Bishop’s arms tangled between the top and second rope!
Aiello: Los Amantes has got the tag champs on the ropes. Liam likes to call that Oopsie! And you can see that he loves to have fun in the ring with his whimsical nature. With that said, he’s very crafty in the ring and so is Romeo.
Bennett: Can’t stand either of these teams. Losers and freaks!
Carter: Whatever. You can tell Los Amantes was ready for this opportunity tonight!
Liam begins to lay in punch after punch into the midsection into Church. Before the referee can DQ him after five seconds, Romeo tags in. He continues the barrage right to the brink of disqualification before tagging back Liam. Again, repeated shots from Liam, Romeo is back in…
Aiello: Los Amantes pummels Bishop Church with The Pull Out!
Church finally gets himself free before dropping to his knees. Romeo grabs onto his arm and then pulls him with a punch to the chest. Don Juan then spikes one half of NSFW with a DDT for the El Corazón! He shoots a half and rolls Church over for the cover!

Mike breaks up the pin for a team with basement dropkick to Romeo’s head!
Aiello: Mike makes a huge save!
Bennett: Get her out of there!
Carter: Oh come on, that’s the name of the game. Back your partner up!
Romeo quickly stumbles back to his corner and tags The Rascal back in. Liam charges and knocks Mike off the apron with a clothesline. He springboards up to the top turnbuckle and leaps off.
He may have been going for the Psychout but Bishop plucked him out of the air and flipped him overhead with another belly to belly suplex! Bishop rolls onto his stomach and reaches out to tag in Mike who had just recovered from the shot from Liam.
She’s in. She dives off the top rope with the Racedrive! She covers!

EWC TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
SINGLES MATCH
SUBMISSION MATCH
KILLIAN DeVILLE
VS CLAY BYRD
VS CLAY BYRD
Aiello: And we are back, folks. As usual NSFW shines in a battle against the debuting tag team Los Amantes and retain their EWC Tag Team Championships in doing so.
Bennett: Los Amantes... I hate that team. They will be on top NEVER.
Carter: But coming up next we have the EWC Television Championship on the line! In an unexpected twist earlier tonight, "Doc" Hollister moved this out of the Main Event spot in favor of the X-Division Champion, Happy, and Kendrick Kross stating that "Leading up to Hardcore Revolution, what better way to end the night than to highlight the X-Division Champion?"
Aiello: These next two men would tend to disagree with that. They feel like they are plenty worthy of highlighting a show and, guys, I don't disagree. Let's get up to the ring to Jessica for this championship match!
The arena goes half-light and a few seconds later “2 Rotten” by Hacktivist starts playing. Suddenly, Killian DeVille appears on the top of the entrance ramp. He looks around staring at the audience that doesn’t seem to feel much empathy for him, before starting his walk towards the ring.
Stroup: The following contest is a submission match.. and it is for the Extreme Wrestling Corporation Television Championship! Making his way to the ring from London, England is the challenger… weighing in at 209 pounds… he is The Villain… KILLIAN DEVILLE!
Already in the ringside area, DeVille climbs up the stairs and enters the ring. Once inside, in the center of the ring, The Villain kneels, close his eyes and opens the arms in a position similar to Jesus Christ as the chorus of the theme song hits the speakers.
“We can just about breathe but we're not alive
The sickness begins, see it in our eyes
Rotten from the inside out
You can shout, you can scream
But in this future world, we bleed”
Then he opens his eyes, muttering inaudible words to the audience. Soon after, the music fades out.
Aiello: Killian Deville has managed to get under the skin of multiple EWC superstars since debuting. The man he will be attempting to take the title from being one of them.
Bennett: He is quickly climbing up my Top 5 Classiest Competitors.
Carter: He has been impressive in his time here. He is a threat every time he steps into the ring.
Stroup: And his opponent...weighing in at 295 pounds and hailing from Plainview, Texas...He is the EWC Television Champion….CLAY BYRD!
Guitar and harmonica begin to blare through the arena, the start of Gunning For You sends a silence across the crowd as Nick Nolan's lyrics echo through the arena. The state of Texas appears on the screen, and slowly fades into a highlight video.
My Gun is loaded it's getting time
Two shots of whiskey i'm takin' what's mine
Ain't what you're sayin it's what you do
Your time has come boy i'm Gunnin for You
When hell is rainin down you'll see my face won't heara sound
You'll feel that bullet burnin through
Take your last breath boy
I'm Gunnin for You
Clayton Byrd steps from the back, clad in his fathers leather vest and with red tights. His right arm is raised in the air, his fist clenched at it's apex. Clay begins his slow walk down the ramp. His eyes are fixed on the ring, and he trudges on. Not paying any notice to any of the fans in attendance.
There's desperation deep in your eyes
No turnin back now no compromise
Cause only one of us walks out that door
The other bleedin out on the floor
Clay walks up the steps, and climbs into the ring. As he gets to the center of the ring, he hoists the Television Title in the air. He hands the belt to the ref, the ref hands it off through the ropes while calling for the bell.
Aiello: Clay Byrd took everything Amis Shelton had to dish out before winning the Television Title. Now he will have to do the same against Killian Deville if he wants to retain here tonight.
Bennett: My money’s on the Texan. You don’t mess with Texas.
Carter: I’m pretty sure place of birth will have nothing to do with the outcome.
DING DING DING
Killian Deville and Clay Byrd circle each other a few time before locking up. After a handful of seconds trying to leverage for advantage, Clay manages to put Killian in a Side Headlock. Clay wrenches down as Killian tries to grab at his wrists. Killian then tries a new tactic as he quickly wraps his arms around Clay, lifts, countering with a Back Body Drop. Clay is quick to his feet, but Killian is there, and hits a Running Single Legged Leg Drop, Clay staggers back into the ropes.Killian again gets to his feet, but is hit with a Spinning Heel Kick, that knocks Clay through the ropes and onto the outside. Killian bides his time, as he sees Clay start to stir, he charges, as Clay gets to his feet, Killian dives through the ropes, and connect with a Suicide Dive, sending Big Tex backfirst into the barricade. Aiello: Killian Deville with the early advantage here.
Carter: He came in with a gameplan. He needs to keep the pressure on if he wants a chance of making this Big Tex tap.
Bennett: Everyone is tougher in Texas. Not going to happen.
Killian charges, going to drive his knee into the face of Clay, instead Clay rolls out of the way, and Killian’s knee collides with the barricade. Killian grabs at his knee, Clay gets to his feet, grabs the arm of Killian, pulls him close, then sends him crashing into the mat with a devastating Short Arm Lariat.The ref yells at Clay to bring it back into the ring. Clay tells him to Leave it Alone. As Killian starts to push himself up, Clay stomps on his back, sending him back down. Clay then stomps on his back four more times before reaching down, grabbing Killian by the head and shoulder, dragging him to hit feet, and whipping him into the ringpost. Clay walks over, and presses his foot across the throat of Killian. The ref rolls out in front of Clay, again iterating Clay needs to bring the action into the ring. Big Tex finally compiles, but not before whipping him into the apron first. Clay grabs Killian, then rolls him into the ring. Clay slides into the ring, as soon as he gets to a vertical position, he steps over Killian, then turns, grabs the ropes while again pressing his foot down on the throat of Killian. The referee checks on Killian, but Killian won't give up.
Clay releases the hold for a moment to laugh at DeVille, but immediately goes right back to it. The ref gets in Byrd's face about the dangers of choke holds. Byrd scoffs and again brings his foot off the throat of Killian. The ref gets between Clay and Killian as Killian tries to catch his breath. Big Tex walks around the ref, drops to the mat, and locks in a Front Facelock on Killian.
Aiello: The Television Champion Clay Byrd has the challenger in a bad spot here.
After a few seconds, the ref checks on Killian but he refuses to quit. Clay brings them both up by to their feet, but as he does, Killian manages to reverse it into an ArmTrap Neckbreaker. Both men are down a bit, Killian is first to get to his feet, as Clay gets to a knee. Killian steps up and delivers a Roundhouse Kick, knocking Clay to the mat. Killian immediately gets in position, and begins to lock clay into the Figure Four Necklock.
Aiello: Killian turns the tide on the Television Champion here.
Clay fights to break the hold to no avail. The ref checks on him, but he refuses to quit. Instead, Clay manages to use his powerful legs to push himself up, he wraps his arms Killian, lifts him up, and slams Killian to the mat. Killian is forced to break the hold, both men take a handful of seconds to recuperate before beginning to get to their feet. Clay is a half a step ahead of Killian, he charges and goes for another Lariat, but Killian ducks it. As Clay turns, Killian delivers a hard kick to the gut, then follows up with a Facebuster Knee Smash, Killian takes a few seconds to catch his breath. As get gets a Knee, Killian walks behind him to get in position to lock in a Sleeper Hold.
Carter: Killian has put the pressure on Clay. If he keeps this up, he could very well be the next EWC Television Champion.
Bennett: I wouldn’t be mad at it, but Big Tex is a bull, and Killian won’t be able to wrangle him.
Clay struggles to pull The Villain's arm from around his neck, but he is unsuccessful as the ref checks on him. Clay is noticeable fighting less a handful of seconds later when the ref checks on him again, Clay still refuses. It seems like Clay may pass out, but suddenly, he pushes up with powerful legs, driving Killian backward, backfirst hard into the corner. Clay turns, scoops up Killian, turns back to the center of the ring, charges, and plants Killian into the mat with a Running Powerslam.
Aiello: WOW! The impact of that slam, I think they both bounced.
They are both down for a few seconds before Clay gets a knee. He takes a breather before pushing up to his feet and heading over to Killian Deville. Big Tex grabs te Villain, yanks him to his feet, then drags him over to the ropes. He drives his knee into the challenger’s gut, doubling him over so his head is next to the ropes. The Television Champion proceeds to use the ropes to choke Killian. The ref first tries to tell Clay to break it up, but Clay doesn’t even acknowledge him. The ref reprimands Byrd before checking on DeVille again. DeVille, once again, refuses to quit. Clay releases his grip. Before the ref can say another word, Clay is right back at it for a bit.
Aiello: The champion is literally trying to choke the life out of the challenger, but DeVille won't give up.
Clay releases again. Killian staggers, Clay wraps his arms around the waist of the dazed Killian, lifts, and drives him into the mat with a High Rise German Suplex. Clay grabs Killian, immediately setting in a Rear Naked Choke.
Aiello: The Champion flips the script on the challenger.
Killian struggles to break the grip of Clay as the ref checks on him. Killian blows the ref off, instead, tries a new tactic as he starts scooting toward the ropes. Clay stops his progress as he pulls Killian to his feet. But this gives Killian the chance to counter with a Jawbreaker. The impact forces Clay to release the hold and creates separation.

Clay tries reaching toward the ropes, but he is too fa, the ref checks on him again, but he still refuses to quit. Clay tries inching toward the ropes, but The Villain applies even more pressure.

Bennett: That lunatic is a champion! I can't believe it!
The referee hands Killian the EWC Television Championship and he raises it up high. He looks down at Byrd and spits on him, laughing in the process. His music plays throughout the arena as he rolls out of the ring.

X-DIVISION MATCH (NON-TITLE)
NO DISQUALIFICATION
KENDRICK KROSS
VS HAPPY
Aiello: And we are back with our Main Event of the evening. According to "Doc" Hollister, you can’t do much better than having the current X-Division Champion in action. That’s right, Happy is in action. Look folks, at Rumble in the Bronx, Happy put Leviathan in a casket to claim that title.
Bennett: It’s witchcraft, you sons of bitches. It’s dark sided!!
Carter: Steve, Joe, I don’t know what it is either but I feel like Happy did us all a favor last Monday.
Aiello: Maybe so but Happy didn’t do himself any favors when he drew the always dangerous Kendrick Kross. Since returning, he put down Bobbi Springfield and Billy Mitchell and had an impressive showing at the Rumble. But most importantly, he’s changed. He’s been short and abrupt at the interviewers and well, he’s not the young man we once knew.
Bennett: Maybe ole’ K2 has grown a sack finally.
Carter: That’s ridiculous, Steve. K2 has sworn revenge for Leviathan’s defeat. That man, if that was a man, doesn’t need to be avenged but I believe Kross believes he does and that’s dangerous. Happy is not in for an easy night. Take it Jessica!
Stroup: The following match is a No Disqualification X-Division contest and is scheduled for one fall …
'Seven Nation Army' hits the PA System. The lights flash red and white with each bass drum hit illuminating the stage briefly. When the snare comes in the rest of the lights come in to reveal Kendrick standing in the middle of the stage with a slight smile on his face. When the cymbals hit in as the words "leave it alone" are said red and white pyro shoot from the side of the stage as Kendrick proceeds down the ramp.
Stroup: First, from Chelsea London, weighing at 215 Pounds, Kendrick KROSS!
Kendrick continues his way down the ramp slapping a few hands and with each cymbal strike the red lights brighten. As he reaches the end of the ramp he smiles and takes a left turn and walks up the steps, climbing in through the top and second ropes. He walks to the middle of the ring and looks out into the crowd before walking over to his corner and hopping up onto the turnbuckle awaiting for the X-Division Champion.
Aiello: Kross looks determined to prove that he is a championship caliber wrestler here in the EWC.
Pyros hit, lights flash red and black and "Ain't no Grave" by Johnny Cash begins to play as fans begin to cheer and jeer and Happy drives out from the back on his custom Harley. He stops atop the stage and looks out to the crowd both left and right and revs his engine before his ride towards the ring. He's wearing blacked out custom Oakley's, his 'Crimson Demons' leather cut, no shirt underneath and black jeans with white shoes. The X-Division strap is slung over his right shoulder.
Stroup: And his opponent, making his way to the ring. fighting out of Oakham Massachusetts, standing 6'2" and weighing 245, the X-Division Champion, HAPPY!
He steps off of his Harley putting his glasses down on it and then taking his Cut and laying it onto the seat of the bike before sliding into the ring. Once inside Happy wears a menacing smile as he rolls his fists.
Happy stares a hole through the audience from just over the ring ropes. His response to a decidedly mixed response is to raise the X-Division belt in the air, making it clear just who is the champion and just what he is capable of.
Happy underestimated what Kendrick Kross was capable of when the conflicted young man dropkicks him in the back.
The referee can only admonish Kross for this but he has no recourse. There are no rules. He calls for the bell.
Kross snatches up the gold belt and sizes up the current champion as he tries to get to his feet. He then smacks the 10 pounds of gold right into the Crimson Demon biker’s skull.
Bennett: Damn, son!
Happy falls to the mat like a sack of potatoes. Referee Josh Daniels looks at Kross with shock. Kross drops to his knees and covers the X-Division Champion.

Happy kicks out in the nick of time.
Aiello: What an auspicious way to start this bout for Agent K2.
Bennett: There ain’t no rules here, Joe. Suck it up. I dig Happy but he shouldn’t have turned his back on a competitor. That’s dumb as shit there.
Carter: This change in attitude has been coming for a long time for Kross. Something has made this man desperate.
Happy may have kicked out but he doesn’t look to well. Kross grabs up on the belt one more time and places it at his feet. He rolls Hap over so his face is right on the belt’s central place. He takes a few steps back…
Aiello: This is the killshot! He’s going to fracture Happy’s skull with that Tramp Stamp!
Bennett: Do it! Do it before Happy does it to you, boy!
Carter: This isn’t a match, this is a damn slaughter!
With a running start, Kross looks to drive Happy’s skull into cold metal.
As he jumps up with his boot in the air, Happy weakly rolls away. The momentum of the blow jams Kross’ knee and he falls to it, favoring it heavily. Happy escapes to the outside of the ring with an emphatic thud but Kross shakes off the impact to his knee and rolls out of the ring to join him.
K2 pulls Happy up and whips him into the steel steps. Happy slumps over and falls flat on his stomach, grabbing his shoulder. Kross scrambles up to the apron, backs up to the opposite post, runs along the apron and launches off with a shooting star press!
Aiello: Oh my God! Kross’ aerial skills are on full display tonight!
Happy moves out of the way. Kendrick hits the thin padding and the look on his face indicate that there was very little it did for him!
Bennett: You had it, you son of a bitch, and then you had to go for the flippity floppity shit! When are you gonna learn?! It never pays!
Happy staggers to his feet and sees the damage the missed high risk maneuver has done. He shakes off the cobwebs and climbs up the steel steps and starts to pay him back with a diving headbutt to the sternum of K2!
Carter: Happy tells Kross to Eat This! Happy has never had any regard for his body. He welcomes this. He came into this company and he made it clear that he didn’t give a damn about what anybody thought of him. But look at the people in this crowd. I see quite a few Smiley faces here.
Bennett: Bandwagonin’ sons of bitches!
Aiello: I get the appeal. Happy stood toe to toe with what many deemed as an unstoppable monster and didn’t back down. I don’t think Kendrick Kross cares much for that fanfare to be honest.
Happy gets to a knee and looks to the ring apron skirt. He lifts it, sets aside the usual weaponry of tables, chairs, and kendo sticks, to retrieve a red tool box. It is emblazoned with the insignia of the Crimson Demons.
He pushes it into the ring via the bottom rope and turns his attention back to his current victim, at least in his eyes. He grabs a handful of Kross’ usually well coiffed hair and pulls him up to his feet. The malicious biker slaps the former two-time TV champion across the face!
That was a shock to the system. A fire lights up Kross’ eyes and he fires back with a backhand of his own! Happy only chuckles at the blow as he rubs his jaw. He shoves Kross back first into the apron and then charges with a knee lift. Kross steps aside and then bashes Happy’s face into the hard part of the edge of the ring. He rolls the biker into the ring, leaps up onto the top rope, and frog splashes Happy! Cover!

Happy gets his shoulder up!
Aiello: Kendrick Kross is always willing to put his body on the line to get the victory. He was a split second away from positioning himself as the potential number one contender to the X-Division Championship!
Bennett: He’s gotta go all the way! Bash his brains in with a hammer!
Carter: Are you advocating murder!? Are you insane!?
Kross rolls off Happy, to his feet, and then tries to bring him up. Happy jabs a thumb into his eye to get some separation. Next, he spears the former MMA fighter into the mat. Happy gets up and looks to his tool box and grins in a sinister manner.
He flips the lip open and rummages through it. He brings out a blowtorch! The crowd gasps a blue flame shoots out of the spout.
Carter: No, don’t do this, Happy! What the hell are you thinking!?
Even Happy thinks better of it and tosses the torch aside. Instead, he retrieves a trusty Phillips screwdriver. As Kross tries to get to his feet, Happy boots him in the jaw. He mounts hi and then starts bring the screwdriver down towards Kross’ face!
Aiello: This may be worse! He is going to … I don’t even know if I can describe it. Something these two said to each other, they’re going for blood!
Bennett: Scoop those eyes out, Happy! He don’t need them.
Carter: Who are you pulling for!?
Bennett: The violence, kid, I love it!
Now it’s dangerously close to his eyes. Kross’ tenuous grasp on these screwdriver is only thing that is stopping it from burrowing into his eye socket.
Referee Josh Daniels makes a huge judgment call and shoves Happy off of Kendrick Kross.
Happy is not amused…
Happy: You a wrestler now, boy?
Daniels: No. I’m not going to watch you stab him. That’s not wrestling.
Happy shakes his head and concedes. He tosses the screwdriver aside.
Happy: You ain’t gonna stop me from hurting this punk. You’re here to count the three and that’s all. Otherwise, I’m gonna set your ass on fire.
Happy turns right around into a Pele kick from Kendrick Kross! He quickly springboards up to the top rope once again… high risk, Coup de Grace!!
Happy moves out of the way of the double stomp but Kross rolls through back onto his feet, he ducks a lariat attempt from Happy and goes for a dragon suplex. Happy slips out of K2’s grasp and staggers him with an elbow to the jaw.
K2 finds himself backed against the ropes as Happy grabs a huge lug wrench out of toolbox of pain! He swings at Kross’ knee and connects! Kross’ forward momentum has him stumble into a reverse fireman’s carry from Happy and the demonic biker sends K2 to his Happy Place!

Stroup: The winner of this match via pinfall, HAPPY!
Aiello: That nasty shot from Happy’s wrench was the real difference!
Bennett: Now set his ass on fire!
Carter: Enough already! It’s over!
Happy grabs his X-Division title from the referee and raises it high in the air! Daniels goes to check on Kross. There isn’t a look of pain and misery from Kross but an unfathomable anger.
Aiello: Well, folks, tonight was a hell of a night to bring in the month of October on our Road to Hardcore Revolution! For Steve Bennett and Max Carter, I am Joe Aiello! We will see you next week from Washington D.C.! Goodnight, everybody!
The scene focuses in on Kross' anger and then fades to black.
Bennett: It’s witchcraft, you sons of bitches. It’s dark sided!!
Carter: Steve, Joe, I don’t know what it is either but I feel like Happy did us all a favor last Monday.

Aiello: Kendrick Kross is always willing to put his body on the line to get the victory. He was a split second away from positioning himself as the potential number one contender to the X-Division Championship!
Bennett: He’s gotta go all the way! Bash his brains in with a hammer!
Carter: Are you advocating murder!? Are you insane!?
Kross rolls off Happy, to his feet, and then tries to bring him up. Happy jabs a thumb into his eye to get some separation. Next, he spears the former MMA fighter into the mat. Happy gets up and looks to his tool box and grins in a sinister manner.
He flips the lip open and rummages through it. He brings out a blowtorch! The crowd gasps a blue flame shoots out of the spout.
Carter: No, don’t do this, Happy! What the hell are you thinking!?
Even Happy thinks better of it and tosses the torch aside. Instead, he retrieves a trusty Phillips screwdriver. As Kross tries to get to his feet, Happy boots him in the jaw. He mounts hi and then starts bring the screwdriver down towards Kross’ face!
Aiello: This may be worse! He is going to … I don’t even know if I can describe it. Something these two said to each other, they’re going for blood!
Bennett: Scoop those eyes out, Happy! He don’t need them.
Carter: Who are you pulling for!?
Bennett: The violence, kid, I love it!
Now it’s dangerously close to his eyes. Kross’ tenuous grasp on these screwdriver is only thing that is stopping it from burrowing into his eye socket.
Referee Josh Daniels makes a huge judgment call and shoves Happy off of Kendrick Kross.
Happy is not amused…
Happy: You a wrestler now, boy?
Daniels: No. I’m not going to watch you stab him. That’s not wrestling.
Happy shakes his head and concedes. He tosses the screwdriver aside.
Happy: You ain’t gonna stop me from hurting this punk. You’re here to count the three and that’s all. Otherwise, I’m gonna set your ass on fire.
Happy turns right around into a Pele kick from Kendrick Kross! He quickly springboards up to the top rope once again… high risk, Coup de Grace!!
Happy moves out of the way of the double stomp but Kross rolls through back onto his feet, he ducks a lariat attempt from Happy and goes for a dragon suplex. Happy slips out of K2’s grasp and staggers him with an elbow to the jaw.
K2 finds himself backed against the ropes as Happy grabs a huge lug wrench out of toolbox of pain! He swings at Kross’ knee and connects! Kross’ forward momentum has him stumble into a reverse fireman’s carry from Happy and the demonic biker sends K2 to his Happy Place!

DING DING DING
Stroup: The winner of this match via pinfall, HAPPY!
Aiello: That nasty shot from Happy’s wrench was the real difference!
Bennett: Now set his ass on fire!
Carter: Enough already! It’s over!
Happy grabs his X-Division title from the referee and raises it high in the air! Daniels goes to check on Kross. There isn’t a look of pain and misery from Kross but an unfathomable anger.
Aiello: Well, folks, tonight was a hell of a night to bring in the month of October on our Road to Hardcore Revolution! For Steve Bennett and Max Carter, I am Joe Aiello! We will see you next week from Washington D.C.! Goodnight, everybody!
The scene focuses in on Kross' anger and then fades to black.
