Fire ERUPTS from the stage, as boos flow through the arena…
Arquette: And… here comes Anarchy…
Caan: Don’t those guys have anything better to do today?
JTC, CJ Sharp, and Sean Lorrenza and a new anonymous member stand on stage as the fire drops down like a curtain. The four of them walk down the ramp together, each of them making their way in their own unique manner but showing cohesiveness as a team. They enter the ring, the hooded man walking off to the side showing no identifying characteristics, as the others taunt the crowd each in there own individual way. The crowd reaction is nuts, as the crowd is on their feet mercilessly letting Anarchy'16 have it.
Arquette: You know who isn't in the ring though?
Caan: Luke Wolfe...
Arquette: I'm not sure what to think about that, after what happened to him at Stranglemania and the rumors swirling about his condition and what followed later that night, this could mean anything.
Caan: And what about our main event? He's supposed to face United States Champion Alexis Morrison. 
The crowd roaring their disapproval of the defections of these men, as CJ Sharpe grabs the microphone.
CJ Sharpe: Since Stranglemania people have been asking... Why? Why? Why! You people don't know why because you are all ! Its actually pretty simple, I am 2 and 0 and nobody even noticed me here in the EWC! Nobody even took a second glance at me! Everybody... except one person.. That person was Luke Wolfe. He knew the Heights that I was aiming for! The heights I will be rising to! He saw the potential in me! So now I'm here... I am here to make the people who haven't noticed me, and the whole EWC... BURN to the ground!
"Hot Shot" Sean Lorrenza slowly brings the microphone up to his lips with a shit-eating grin on his face as he begins to speak. CJ Sharpe can still be heard laughing in the background. However, the capacity crowd here at the Thomas and Mack Center are really letting Lorrenza hear it. They are booing relentlessly, not letting "The Real Deal of Professional Wrestling" get a word out. Sean waits for a few seconds for the crowd to die down, but they aren't letting up. He begins to speak anyway.
Lorrenza: Las Vegas, if you don't shut your mouths, or I'll walk right out of this ring and you won't get ANY kind of explanation from me! How's THAT?!
The boos get louder, and now the crowd begins to chant "Why? Why? Why? Why?"
Lorrenza: Why? As if you people actually give a damn about my reasoning or ANYTHING about me, for that matter!
Arquette: That's not right! These people paid hard-earned money to be here tonight. They deserve to let the EWC superstars know exactly how they feel, and Lorrenza is just insulting them!
Caan: You have a point, but Lorrenza hasn't been liked ever since he stepped foot in an EWC ring, so why should he pretend to care about the way the feel about him now? Here's a tip... he DOESN'T!
Sean chuckles a bit as the crowd hisses and hollers at him. This doesn't bother him in the slightest, though. He just smiles widely and continues.
Lorrenza: You people really want to know why? It's simple. One word... DOMINATION! You all know that I'm "The Real Deal of Professional Wrestling", "God's Gift to Wrestling", and "The Main Attraction in the Wrestling Industry". Well, with Luke Wolfe, CJ Sharpe, and JTC, I will also be UNSTOPPABLE! WE will be unstoppable, and there isn't a God-damn thing ANYONE can do about it! It might come as a surprise to some of you that I would join Anarchy '16, but it shouldn't. Luke Wolfe has a vision that CJ Sharpe and JTC are on board with, and I am no different! That vision is to be the best, most dominant force in ALL of professional wrestling whether anyone likes it or not! You will all be convinced soon enough. You may think we're the bad guys, but we're not. We're doing this for your own good. You may not agree with us, but you will soon find out that TOTAL ANARCHY is the only way we can truly make you see the light!
Sean flashes another cocky smirk as he hands the microphone over to JTC.
Arquette: You're not the bad guys? Such bull!
Caan: Hey, it sounded good, right?
Lorrenza with a cocky grin walks over and hands the mic to JTC.
JTC: Why? Why? Why? Is that all you can say? Give me a break, you know why you just don't want to accept the fact that you fans are a reason for this. EWC is the reason for this. I'm always being booked as either a mid carder or a match filler! Or a person that a debuting person faces! Booking me as a opener to take on new talent! It's a slap in the face of everything I've accomplished! I'm a damn 12 year vet! EWC should be lucky to have me but they don't use me right, don't give me a push. So from now on I take want I want. Luke Wolfe helped me fully open my blind eyes and speak the truth. No more Mr nice guy. No I am The Phenomenal Ki.... No I'm The Phenomenal Bad Guy Jonathon Thomas Cross! And it is time for the Anarchy'16/Cross era to officially begin! And for all of you thought… HE… was gone forever, that he is dead... think again…
JTC lowers the mic, as the lights dim down to pitch black…
Arquette: Aaaand he’s back.
A spotlight illuminates in the darkness, showing Luke Wolfe up on stage, his hood covering most of his face. His new theme mash up of “Aint no Grave” with “Evil Ways” makes a clear statement. Luke begins walking to the ring, slowly showing absolutely no emotion at all. He stops at the edge of the ring, looking up at his members in the ring, and slowly walks over to the stairs slowly making his way up them stepping through the ropes. He walks over to JTC exchanging a few words as JTC hands him the mic. The lights slowly come back on as the crowd taunts Luke with chants of “LAST MAN STANDING”…
“LAST MAN STANDING!!!”
“LAST MAN STANDING!!!”
“LAST MAN STANDING”
You can barely see Luke’s shadowed face under his hood, but you can see his face is unchanged, just looking blankly into the crowd. Almost in unison the chants change to “STORM!!!”
“STORM! STORM! STORM! STORM!”
Luke waits for the chants to quiet down, and then he slowly flips his hood off his face revealing stitches, and swelling on his face. Luke walks around the ring, looking blankly into the crowd, as the members of Anarchy’16 stand in the ring, awaiting what their “Messiah” has to say. Luke slowly raises the mic to his lips.
Arquette: Luke looks like he has had better days…
Caan: And it’s only gonna get worse, he has to face Alexis Morrison later tonight.
Luke Wolfe: If you thought, that just because Mark Storm bested me at Stranglemania that I was going to run and hide and you would never see me again, you are wrong.
The crowd erupts into boos.
Luke Wolfe: My work will continue, you thought just because I passed out into a puddle of my own blood that it was over? The games have only just begun. Mark Storm won the battle, we will win the war. Not only the war against him, but he war against the EWC, the war against this world. Even though I made the ultimate sacrifice at Stranglemania, my men… THESE MEN… made Storm pay for his sins, his sins against this world, his sins against the EWC, and most of all his since against YOU!
The crowd erupts into chants of “STORM!!!”
“STORM! STORM! STORM! STORM!”
Luke Wolfe: You are all my children, but you are lost because you follow blind leaders! Leaders like President Mac, like Michael Saint, like… Mark Storm. You think that it’s a coincidence that at the first chance he got, he ran to Saint to get his ass traded to Brawl? He wanted to get himself out of the fire before it’s too late, because make no mistake we would have destroyed him. But leaving to Brawl won’t save him, never forget we have people everywhere... and his time will come, when you least suspect it, from who you least suspect. You don’t know who we are, you don’t know where we are, and you will never see us coming.
The crowd in attendance boos relentlessly as Luke looks around the crowd shaking his head.
Luke Wolfe:I have a message for Shelly Silver, who got involved in my business, and did everything she could to keep Storm on his feet at Stranglemania. Mark knows he couldn't beat me by himself... Shelly Silver saved Mark Storm, don't believe me?
Luke turns and looks at the jumbotron, where it shows the footage from Stranglemania.
"Back in the ring, Luke lifts Storm up, tosses him into the ropes, gets out the ring, jumps on the rope and hits a spring board DDT! With Storm down, Luke goes out the ring again, jumps up on the top rope and hits spring board 450 splash! This time Luke gets up and waits in a opposite corner as the referee starts counting…

Mystery Man: Things Once again, things aren’t looking good for Storm! He better do something if he wants to continue his climb back to the top of EWC.
Colin Hanks: These guys have been beating each other senseless, their hatred and passion is what’s keeping them up, both of them want Xplode’s spot.

Suddenly, Shelley Silvers reaches into the ring and pulls out Storm to get him on his feet."
Luke Wolfe: It’s clear that I proved my dominance over Mark Storm, and if it wasn’t for her, there is no way he could have possibly won. She did everything she could to help him win, and now she has signed her own death warrant. I left Anarchy’16 behind the curtain to beat Mark Storm one on one, and he proved that he needed someone to help him stay on his feet. So… After the travesty that was the ending of the match that I had to watch later on, because I had no memory of it, THESE men… did what hero’s do, and they stood up for what was RIGHT! They punished Mark Storm for his sins, because we are the judge, jury, and executioner. These men revealed their identities because they felt it was time, they aren't mindless zombies, they are here because they are fighting the good fight, they are here because they want to do what is right, and that I am going to lead them to a better world. And to create a new world, you have to burn down the old one. This isn’t about money, it’s not about championships, it’s about sending a message… and that message is… Everything burns.
The crowd erupts into a round of boos.
Luke Wolfe: That brings me to tonight… Alexis Morrison…
The crowd erupts at her name.
Luke Wolfe: I’m not going to lie to all of you, I have tried to get her to join our cause, she doesn’t exactly see things our way. But she will… she lives in the society of the blind eye… and when the time is right, she will join us. But sometimes you have to die to be born again, and be risen as something better than you ever thought you could be. So… For now, Alexis, you are a target. You have been given the advantage in this match because I am not at 100%, so I suggest you make the most of it. Because tonight is baptism by fire, bring me everything you have, punish me, take me to hell… but just remember where it is that I come from. But when it’s all over, no matter what the outcome, my work will continue. Once upon a time a man was crucified and bleed for the world, in order to change the world. Now, one man bleeds to change the world once again, I will win this war. And under the shadow of darkness, I will build my church. Alexis, it's time. Join us, or fall forever. If you haven’t noticed…
Luke looks straight into the camera showing his battered and bruised face.
Luke Wolfe: ...Nothing will ever stop me, nothing can stop me, and there is NO GRAVE that I cannot escape from. I will continue to rise from the grave, until my work is finished. Then... and only then, will I rest. Until then, all any of you can do… IS BURN!
Fire erupts from every turnbuckle post! But none of the members of Anarchy’16 flinch when the fire vanishes the lights go pitch black, and after what seems like only a few seconds, the lights come back on and the entire group has vanished from the ring!!!
Arquette: It looks like anyone’s prayers of this being over after Mark Storm’s victory at Stranglemania have just been dashed.
Caan: David, they are only getting started! No one is safe! This is only going to get worse before it gets better.
Arquette: What did he mean that he will “build his church”?
Caan: David do I know? Can anyone decipher the things that Wolfe says?
Arquette: And the group is only going to be even more dangerous now that we know that JTC, CJ Sharp, and Sean Lorrenza are a part of this group, and from the looks of things… there are more to come!
