Aiello: Hello and Welcome to Monday Night Brawl live from the Rogers Arena here in beautiful Vancouver British Columbia Canada. We are kickstarting a little Canadian Tour here in Vancouver, and we are so happy to be here. As always my name is Joe Aiello, and with us Jeremy Piven
Piven: Great to be here folks. Wow, what an amazing show Scars and Stripes was
Piven: Great to be here folks. Wow, what an amazing show Scars and Stripes was
Aiello: Yes indeed. We saw our own Harlow Kinsley, Tony Savage and of course Jaden "Explode" Hunter all retain at Scars, and what a show they all put on.
Piven: Unfortunately Team BRAWL came up short at Scars but hopefully Kenneth Williams can redeem himself and the team when he takes on RAMPAGE member CBK here tonight. It's a very rare occurrence for a Rampage member to appear on BRAWL but this is a match that needed to happen and I'm so happy to see that the booking staff in EWC knows what they are doing. It's the match the fans wanted, and CBK was a good enough sport to make himself available tonight
Aiello: Rampage of course is celebrating a huge milestone this week with episode 400 happening on Friday and they have some major stars on the card. Xplode is headlining, and you have Rev, Gladiator, Kid Cannabis and El Chupa all appearing which is an amazing show put together by Michael Saint who will be teaming with our very own President, Danny Mac.
Tonight is a very very exciting show for Monday Night Brawl as we have a number of debuts. The new crop of talent in EWC has proven to be just outstanding and the trend looks to continue tonight. I've met with Ashton first hand, the man looks amped, jacked and ready to go. Lunatic has a tough task tonight but seems to have just enough crazy in him to match Kinsleys crazy and of course the man we know very little about this side of the border, SHEIKH RASLAN making his debut
Piven: So much talent Joe. And all on BRAWL. Well what's this? It looks like Jessica is making her way out here ... might we have a guest visitor in the ring coming up?
Stroup: Please welcome... the REIGNING EWC UNDISPUTED CHAMPION OF THE WORLD... XPLODE!!!
The arena erupts with responses as "I stand alone" by Godsmack begins to play! The lights dim down to a red hue, and the camera feed pans to the entrance area!
Aiello: Here he is.. the EWC Champion.. Xplode! This is the man who has carried the promotion on his back for a record amount of days now! A first ballot hall of famer.. one of the greatest of all time.. Xplode. Only he can cause this amount of stir in the arena, and when he arrives, it's always a historic moment.
Piven: Xplode is the man... the top dog, not just in the EWC but in the world! He has faced the best and defeated them all! Sadly, this is his final run in the company, a farewell tour so to speak. Having announced his impending retirement date, StrangleMania 2017, the bullseye on his back has become much larger.
Aiello: Xplode last match against Mark Storm was a memorable one to say the least! The two of them squared off and nearly took the roof off of the place, with Xplode winning in an amazing display of strength and stamina! What's next for the Destroyer of Worlds? What does he have left to accomplish?
Emerging on to the stage area, Xplode looks out at the fans, wearing a sharp suit. The EWC Title rests upon his shoulder as he chews on a large piece of gum. Heading down the ramp, Xplode arrives at ringside. The fans continue to roar as he walks up the metal steps and enters the ring. A microphone is handed to him as Xplode raised the EWC Title over his head... letting the fans get a good look. He then lowers it and places it back on his shoulder, letting his theme song fade out.
X: Well... It's Monday. Just another day at the office, right? The ring is set up nicely, the seats are jam packed with fans... and the EWC Undisputed title is still hanging on my shoulder. All is right in the world.
The fans shout at Xplode as he walks around the ring. The boos and cheers are deafening as eardrums are threatened to burst. Soaking in the responses, Xplode remains silent. Finally, he speaks:
X: I love it. Every month, you idiots cheer for the next goofy face who surfaces with the intent on defeating me... and every month its me standing in this ring, raising this strap. Don't you all understand how this works by now?! Well let me refresh you on how things work around here then. You see, I am Xplode. I am.. and have been.. the best in this business for longer than ANYONE in the history of this sport. Go ahead, shout out names! Griffin Hawkins... Tony Savage.. it doesn't matter. None of them are in my league, and none of them have gotten the job done like I have. It's easy to hold a toy strap. This one right here? This is the only one that matters in this industry..
Xplode raises the championship over his head once again.
X: Time and time again, I have proven that I am the best in the world. Yet, the front office continues to manufacture these kids with pipe dreams, in hopes of yanking me off of my throne. I need to give credit where credit is due though. Mark Storm earned my respect.. he never had a chance.. but he did earn my respect. Let's give him a round of applause.
The fans begin to cheer and chant: STORM - STORM - STORM!
X: That's right.. chant his name! It's a fitting way to end a career that never ended the way that Storm expected it to. That chapter has now ended... I am still the champ.. and it's time to look forward. So, who is next? I damn near have beaten every person that matters in the locker room! Perhaps they should ask you all who should be the next to get underneath my size 11 boot. I mean.. let's be honest.. it's really come down to two names at this point. Tony Savage.. or Nurse Kinsley.
The fans begin to cheer loudly upon hearing their names!
X: Well, regardless of whether I face the boy band member again... or the American Horror Story cast member reject... it doesn't make a damn difference in the end. You see, this strap is staying in my possession until I am ready to let it go. I have busted my ass to get to this very point in my career, and I will be damned if I slip up now. All of you in those seats owe me a big THANK YOU... because it's been me who has kept the EWC in business! I have been the constant around here... the standard of excellence that others' strive to achieve. That doesn't change until I say so.. regardless of who they put me in the ring against. Over the last few months, I have faced the best talent that Brawl AND Rampage has been able to muster up. Keep them coming.. and I will keep knocking them down.
The fans scream as Xplode raises the championship one final time. Suddenly, Nurse Kinsley emerges on to the stage area! The fans erupt as she heads down the rampway and rolls into the ring.
Harlow gets uncomfortably close to Xplode, stepping right up to face him. The crowd picks up.
Kinsley: I want you to know...
And she just as suddenly backs off, pacing a small circle toward the edge of the ring. She lets the excitement of the crowd die back down before she continues, from a slightly safer distance.
Kinsley: I've been waiting for this moment since I arrived in this company. Everything I've done, every person I've hurt, all of it, all of it has been building to this. You, the Undisputed champion. You, the biggest icon of EWC. You, the symbol, the representative of everything this company is, the figure on all the posters and the games and the T-shirts and, and...
Kinsley glances aside, breathing in deep before looking back to X.
Kinsley: I'm going to dismember you.
There's a very loud, mixed reaction, mostly boos. The nurse again pauses, waiting for the crowd to quiet.
Kinsley: I've done nothing but tear this hierarchy down from the legs up. Every drop of blood, every ounce of sweat, I've put into making people question everything they know about this business, making them doubt everything they think they know about the people in this ring. You...
Kinsley chuckles.
Kinsley: You're going to be the icing on my nihilist cake, X. When it's all over, when historians are looking back on my career, analyzing my every move, struggling to decide what the worst thing I ever did was...
Once again, she steps closer to him... very close, the roar of the crowd starting to build again. She speaks, low, barely audible over the sound of the audience.
Kinsley: The worst thing I'm ever going to do...
is going to be...
what I'll do to you.
The fans continue to cheer as Kinsley begins to walk away. Xplode glances at her... and starts laughing? Nurse Kinsley stops in her tracks and glares over her shoulder as Xplode slaps his leg, laughing his ass off.
X: Oh wow.. that was good. I mean.. seriously.. that was funny as shit! Let me get this straight, you think that you can walk down MY ramp, dressed in some terrible Halloween costume that was left at a thrift store, get in my face, threaten me.. and think that I will actually take you seriously?! I am going to assume that you have come to this assumption, based on the scrubs that you have faced thus far. Let's make one thing clear though.. shall we?
X begins to approach Nurse Kinsley. Kinsley doesn't back down at all, instead slowly spinning around to meet X's gaze.
X: You know, Kinsley, you are absolutely right. I am the man who image sits on those cups, shirts, and magazines. I am the greatest icon in this business without a shadow of a doubt. Do you think that I achieved that distinction by facing off against people... well.. people like you?! I have faced legends, wolves, beasts, monsters, pirates, champions, storms... and each damn time I have come out as the winner. I have seen it all, so don't think that just because you wear a pair of fancy contact lenses that you are going to pump fear into MY veins! You want some of me? Come get it... just be careful what you ask for. Do yourself a favor though. The next time that you get the bright idea to walk out here, interrupt me, and spout some fantasy crap in my face.. bring a wheelchair.
The fans scream with anticipation as X steps right up to Nurse Kinsley. He raises the EWC Title and holds it in front of her.
X: This is the EWC Undisputed Championship.. and I AM THE EWC CHAMPION. You know where to find me when you are ready.
The fans cheer even louder as both superstars stare into each others' eyes! The feed slowly fades out.
Piven: We will be right back after this folks

ASHTON DRAKE
Vs TIFFANI LOPEZ
Joe Aiello: Welcome back ladies and gents. Le'ts get this first match going, folks. We have the debut of Ashton Drake in this one. It should be good.
Jeremy Piven: I'm hoping it's good, Joe. Especially seeing how good Scars and Stripes was!
Jessica Stroup: Our first match of the night is scheduled for one fall!
The lights fade to a dark grey, and the arena becomes silent instantly
Explosions rocket from the stage, catching the fans off guard as "The vengeful one" by Disturbed begins to play! Stepping into view, Ashton Drake runs to the end of the stage and crouches, looking out into the sea of fans through masked eye slits.
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 towards the ring as the fans cheer him on. His dark pupils stare at the ring, his focus like a razor. Arriving at ringside, Ashton hops up to the ring apron and remains in place.. looking out at the fans around him.
Joe: This Ashton Drake kid looks like he is serious, I enjoyed meeting with, let's see how he does in his first match.
Music hits. Spotlight hits stage. Out walks Tiffani. With her trademark red goggles and jacket. She bounces up and down in preparation of her match.
Jessica: Introducing next, Tiffani Lopez!
She walks down The ramp and enters the ring.
DING! DING! DING!
Ashton and Tiffani circle the ring, eyeing one another trying to figure the other person out. They get closer as they circle eachother. Before Tiffani can do anything, Ashton sends a boot to the gut of Tiffani then lifts her up and sends a punch to her head. He keeps on the assault, sending one right, then a left, then another right, then another left. He keeps punching her which backs her up to the turnbuckle.
Ashton grabs Tiffani's arm and tries to throw her across the ring, but she reverses it and throws Ashton across the ring instead, she runs after him. As he hits the turnbuckle she hits a dropkick to his chest.
Joe: This match is starting out good, let's see if it continues this way!
Jeremy: I agree, Joe. Ashton and Tiffani are having a strong showing so far.
Tiffani gets up after the dropkick, as she does Ashton walks out from the corner holding his chest, Tiffani goes for a punch but Ashton ducks the punch, after he ducks the punch he sends a kick to Tiffanis head knocking her onto the mat. Ashton doesn't let up though, he picks her up after the kick and sends a forearm to her head before whipping her across the ring.
On the return he hits her with a hip toss, he pops back up and as he does she does as well, she runs at him again and he hits another hip toss. She gets up quickly again and he hits her with one more hip toss. After the third one she stays down and he runs across the springboards off the middle rope and hits a lionsault which he then goes for a pin!
ONE!
Joe: What a quick exchange right there.
TWO!
Jeremy: He could get it here, Joe.
T...KICKOUT!
After the kickout Ashton gets up, followed by lifting Tiffani up. Before Ashton can do anything though Tiffani hits another dropkick out of nowhere! Ashton hits the mat hard as they both end up on the mat not moving as the ref starts a ten count.
Jeremy: Tiffani with a dropkick gaining the advantage, but it looks like she's running out of gas.
ONE!
Joe: Well this has been a fast paced match, it's not like it's been slow so they both are probably running out of gas, Jer.
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Ashton starts to move along with Tiffani as the ref gets to Five. Before he can get to Six though they both get up to one knee. Ashton walks to the middle of the ring but is met by Tiffani before he can do anything, she throws a punch. Ashton returns one of his own though, Tiffani throws another one followed by Ashton. Tiffani throws one then Ashton does again. Tiffani tries to go for another punch but Ashton blocks it and sends a knee to her midsection and hits a suplex! He doesn't let go though as he rolls his hips and hits one more. He lets go on the second one as he goes for another pin. Before the ref can get to one though Tiffani pushes Ashton off. She gets up quick followed by Ashton, she hits him with a clothesline. He pops up and then gets hit with another clothesline from her. Tiffani quickly drops down after Ashton hits the mat and goes for a pin.
ONE!
Piven: This could be a big win for Tiffani here, Joe.
TWO!
Joe: Not just that, but a loss for the debuting Ashton Drake won't look good.
TH....Drake kicks out as the ref begins to come down for the three.
Drake rolls over on to his stomach and pulls himself up to one knee. Tiffani gets up immediately after the kickout, and goes for a kick at his stomach. He rolls away though as Tiffani gets all air. Drake gets up and goes for a dropsault on Tiffani, she grabs his legs in mid air instead, she spreads his legs open and steps through attempting a sharpshooter but Drake sits up and grabs Tiffanis arms. Drake rolls backwards and reverses the positions. Tiffani is now on her back and Drake has stepped through and crossed her legs. He turns her over and applies the sharpshooter!
Joe: Is Tiffani going to tap out? She may have to!
Jeremy: She is close to the ropes though, Joe. She could break it if she can just reach far enough!
Tiffani tries to reach for the ropes but can't quite get there. She pushes her self up trying to relieve the pressure, as she does she moves forward a bit and reaches out for the ropes. She barely grabs the ropes as the ref tells Drake to break it. He doesn't though as he uses the whole five count before breaking the hold. Tiffani grabs her back as Drake walks away from her letting out a smirk.
Joe: That just really caused damage to Tiffani it looks like, Jer.
Piven: Question is, how much damage did he cause?
Tiffani slowly drags herself up still holding her back. Ashton looks at Tiffani as she is on her feet leaning against the ropes. She slowly walks away from them, as she does Ashton runs at her, Tiffani runs at Ashton as well as he goes for a clothesline she ducks it, Ashton turns around and is met by a hurricanrana. Ashton rolls through it though as he pops up after it, she pops up as well as she turns around he sends a boot to Tiffanis gut and hits a Snap DDT! After he hits the DDT he drops down to a sitting position, and gets Tiffani in the Anaconda Vice! He keeps pulling on her arm and neck. She tries to break free but to no avail! She finally taps out! Ashton keeps the hold on for a few seconds after the bell rings then hops up as his music hits.
DING! DING! DING!
Jessica: Your winner by Submission, ASHTON DRAKE!!
Joe: What a debut by Ashton but Tiffani did have a good showing as well, Jer.
Jeremy: I agree, that was a good opening match. Good debut by Ashton. He certainly appears poised to make some noise here on BRAWL and what a great way to start then to pick up a win in his first match. Lets hope he can continue on this path and build on the win next week in Edmonton. Tiffani needs to work a little harder on putting more power into her moves and finishing strong. Either way, great match. We will be right back after these messages folks
BACKSTAGE
We return from commercial to Ace Heart standing backstage, microphone in hand waiting to perform an interview.
Ace: Joining me right now, my guest at this time: Emma Louise.
The camera pans as Emma Louise steps into the shot.
Ace: Emma, at Scars and Stripes you lost in mere minutes. This week you don't appear to be on the card. What happened?
Emma: I let my mind slip and I lost my focus. I made one small mistake and it cost me. No, it cost me and it cost Brawl.
Ace: Brawl?
Emma: I feel like if I hadn't been eliminated when I was that I could have given more to my team. I feel that had I been able to give more, maybe we could have won the match. I don't know, I can't say for certain.
Ace: How does that affect this week?
Emma: I feel that the matchmakers of EWC looked at me and my two minute elimination and felt I wasn't value for money or that I wasn't ready.
Ace: Will we see you next week?
Emma: I hope so. After my performance at Scars and Stripes, after how it affected Team Brawl and after not being booked this week, I need to hope to be booked. If I am booked, I need to go out there and do the best that I can. I have to restore EWC's faith in me. I said when I came to EWC that I wanted to be the World Champion, I can't do that on performances like I did at Scars and Stripes. I HAVE to improve.
Emma walks out of shot.
Ace: There you have it, a very determined Emma Louise.
SHEIKH RASLAN
Vs VINNY GIGANTE
Aiello: Thanks for that Ace! Its good to see a determined Emma Louise and we hope to see her back in action next week as we continue our little tour of Canada
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and Gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first from Beverley Hills, California weighing in at 190 pounds… RASHID RASLAN!!!
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. 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.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent from Lower Manhattan, New York, weighing in at 258 pounds… “VINNY” “THE CHIN” GIGANTE!!!!
'New York, New York' – Sinatra hits as Gigante makes his way to the ring.
Aiello: This will be a hell of a debut for Raslan, and he has a big feet ahead of him in Gigante, if he can pull this one off it will be huge for his career here in the EWC.
Piven: I have a feeling that Raslan is gonna be a huge deal here.
DING DING DING!!!
The match starts off with Raslan walking to the middle of the ring talking trash with the larger Gigante. Vinny doesn’t say a word he just pie faces Raslan shoving him away. Ralan just shakes his head and gives Gigante a shove to the chest! Vinny takes a few steps back, and replies with a shove of his own, knocking Raslan to the ground, who rolls backwards into the turnbuckle slapping the mat. Gigante walks over to him waving for him to get up. Raslan smiles waving for Vinny to calm down, Vinny laughs turning his head giving Raslan the opportunity he needs to hit Vinny below the belt! The ref quickly questions Raslan as Gigante falls to the mat. Raslan assures it was a blow to the mid section, as he makes his way over to the fallen Gigante, giving him a few stomps to the mid section before grabbing his leg and dropping an elbow to the inner thigh! He twists his knee around forcing Gigante to struggle to get to the ropes as the ref quickly calls for the break.
Aiello: A little dirty tactics from Raslan, but effective none the less.
Piven: He got the larger man off his feet, and that was his plan all along, he just did what he had to do.
Gigante gets to his feet, limping on one knee. Raslan walks up behind him and kicks him in the back of the knee knocking him back down to the mat! Raslan stands over him screaming down in his face, but Vinny isn’t playing around and reaches up and grabs Raslan by the throat! He slowly makes it to his feet, lifting him up into the air by his throat! He slams him down to the mat, and Raslan rolls out of the ring, but is quickly followed by Gigante. Raslan looks for an elbow to the mid section but its blocked by Gigante who slams Raslan’s face down into the ring apron! Raslan bounces off and stumbles toward the guard rail holding his forehead. Gigante spins him around and delivers rights and lefts to the midsection of Raslan! He grabs him and throws him back in the ring, Raslan quickly gets up and hits the ropes as Gigtante gets in the ring but as he bounces back Gigante steps in walks through Raslan with a vicious clothsline!
Aiello: Gigante’s superior size and strength seems to be too much for Raslan!
Piven: I wouldn’t want to meet Gigante in a back alley.
Gigante picks up Raslan who takes the opportunity to drop kick Gigante to the knee! Dropping him down, Raslan hits the ropes and nails Gigante with the running knee! Raslan wastes no time with Vinny down, and climbs the turnbuckle! He quickly leaps off the top rope and nails a perfect flying elbow drop to Vinny the chin!
Aiello: Raslan is picking up some steam!
Piven: Very impressive!
Raslan picks up Giagante and with a roar of strength lifts up Gigante into a Suplex DDT! From the impact of his own weight Gigante looks to be out cold! Raslan flips Gigante over and locks in the Camel Clutch as the servant holds up the portrait of Raslan as he holds Vinny’s face looking right at it…
Piven: Well I guess Now you Know…
Aiello: That’s what he calls it! NUK!
But Gigante appears to be out of it, the ref lifts Vinny’s hand once and it falls to the mat, as Raslan screams out as he pulls even harder. The ref lifts his arm a second time and it again falls…
Carlo, Frankie, and Tony Spanks make their way down the ramp and start cheering on Vinny from outside the ring. The ref lifts his hand a third time…
…
…
…
…It falls to the mat, but stops at the last minute!!! The Ref raises his arm signaling that Gigante is awake!
Aiello: JUST IN TIME!!!
Piven: How is he still awake???
Aiello: Carlo, Frankie, and Tony Spanks must have given Gigante the boost he needed to get right back into this match or at the very least, live to die another moment here in this match
Raslan tries to pull back as hard as he can, but Gigante powers out of it, by grabbing Raslan by his ankles standing up, with Raslan on his back falling backwards crushing Raslan underneath him! Gigante slowly gets to his feet, coughing trying to catch his breath. Raslan rolls over with the wind knocked out of him, the two get to their feet, Gigante ties up with Raslan with an obvious look of anger on his face! He quickly lifts Raslan into the Sullivan Street Slam!!! He hooks the leg!
ONE!
.
.
.
.
TWO!
.

.
THREE!!!
DING DING DING
Aiello: And this one is over! The power of Gigante proved to be too much for Raslan! But it was certainly an impressive debut for the Sheikh.
Piven: He certainly is going to have a good future ahead of him, Gigante was just too much.
Jessica Stroup: Here is your winner… VINNY “THE CHIN” GIGANTE!!!
Carlo, Frankie, and Tony Spanks all slide into the ring and help Gigante to his feet while all raising his arms in victory. Carlo spits at Sheikh while celebrating with Gigante as we head to commercial
RINGSIDE
Aiello: Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. What an amazing show thus far! I have to admit, the wave that the EWC is riding right now is phenomenal. We are right off the heels of one of the greatest events of the year, Scars and Stripes! Yet, the excitement just doesn't stop!
Piven: That's right, man. It's a good time to be an EWC employee.. and an even better time to be an EWC fan! With the amount of talent in the organization currently, it's a can't lose situation!
Aiello: You've got that right! Earlier this year, the EWC had the opportunity to go overseas and.. wait.. what's this??
The fans begin to cheer slightly as a new face emerges from within them! Wearing a dark black hood over his head, a man walks through the sea of fans and hops the crowd barrier! The fans eat it up, and begin to cheer him on as security teams rush towards him.
Piven: Oh come on.... get that guy away from the ring and let's keep the show going already!
Avoiding the security team, the man rolls under the bottom rope and removes his hoodie, staring out into the fans as his lip piercing shines under the arena lights!
Aiello: WAIT!! THAT'S ASHTON DRAKE!!! Tonight, Drake debuted under the Brawl brand and performed excellently with a victory over Tiffani Lopez. What could he possibly have to say?
Piven: Well I have to give him one thing.. if you want to get noticed in the EWC you need to reach out and take stardom by the horns! Drake may be doing just that tonight! Excellent start to a promising career! I will be following this guy..
Drake walks around the ring for a moment, letting the fans cheer him on! He accepts a microphone and smiles before ascending the turnbuckle. Soaking in the responses, he then hops back down and adjusts his knee pad before speaking..
Drake: Well DAMN! This is what it is all about, right?! This is.. the big time? I have to tell you, I am completely humbled out here! Humbled... but not speechless.
The fans scream even LOUDER, excited by Drake's arrival! Drake nods his head in approval and speaks once again.
Drake: So tonight I popped my cherry, and I don't mean in a cheap Jack in the box milkshake type of way! Oh.. and Jack in the box can send my check in the mail for the free advertisement.... anyway. Yeah, tonight I experienced what most of the fans in those seats only dream of! I started a legacy, and make no mistake about it, a legacy is what I hope to achieve here! No retreat... no surrender. That's my motto, and I have no doubt in my mind that it will be the very description of how I do business here! I figured that I would come on out to this ring tonight, and introduce myself to you all. It's the polite thing to do..
My name is Ashton Drake... Brooklyn born... Brooklyn made. I don't have the illustrious careers that most of the chumps in the locker room enjoy, but I do have one damn thing that will help me stand out. some refer to it as an over abundance of ruthless aggression.... I would rather just describe it by saying that I excel at being an asshole! I back up what I say I will do, however, and quoting the great warrior known as "The Batman"... I will look in to the eyes of my opponents and ask: "Do you bleed? You will."
That's right.. I am a comic nerd. I play video games and I enjoy a healthy bowl of frosted flakes from time to time too. I am just like every one of you in attendance today (points at the fans) and every one of you at home who is watching this on television. There are no smoke and mirrors with me, just ample amounts of heart and tenacity. Unlike our illustrious EWC Undisputed Champion, you will see my ugly face every damn week in this ring! Hell, you might even see me on Rampage as well! I will be noticed around here... one way or another. It's that simple. To make it easy for you all.. you are looking at the future of the EWC. I know others have made that claim, but rest assured, I will back it up again and again and again and again and again until it isn't me saying it... it's the front office instead! I have dreamed about getting this shot in the company, and you can bet your ass that I won't be wasting it now that I have it. I can say ass on TV.. right?"
The fans begin to laugh as Drake paces the ring a bit more. Suddenly, a chant in the crowd grows louder... "DRAKE... DRAKE.... DRAKE... DRAKE.... DRAKE!!"
Drake: I appreciate that. Thank you. So let me wrap this wonderful moment up so that the... so called superstars in the locker room can come out here and do what they do. It's time for a change in the industry. I think we have had enough of the over hyped folks such as Xplode and Nurse Kinsley. After that little display earlier tonight, it seems as if they are headlining the next pay per view.. right? Tonight, I am going to help usher in a shift in the company, where the "normal" folks finally take back the industry that they helped to create. I was a fan at one time, just like all of you, and maybe I still am now that I think about it. this industry belongs to us.... so let's take it back."
Drake lifts the microphone and raises it over his head... and then he drops it, causing a loud thump. The fans absolutely lose it as he hops out of the ring, slapping their hands as he heads up the ramp way and into the backstage area.
Piven: I like that kid.
Aiello: Impressive. He sure got the EWC Universe behind him quickly.. Now let's see if he can back it all up in the next few weeks. Jessica is now in the middle of the ring, which can only mean one thing
Piven: Time for our next match
LATOYA HIXX
Vs MARK STORM
Jessica Stroup: The following contest is scheduled for a one fall!
”Sky’s the Limit” by CFO$ plays on the PA system and Latoya comes out in her bling coat and wears her white sunglasses and poses on the stage.
Jessica Stroup: Introducing first, from Boston, Massachusetts weighing in a one hundred and fourteen pounds.. she is the first lady of hardcore, LATOYA HIXX!
She walks down in hops on the ropes and shows her Boss Brass Knuckels in get’s in the ring in takes off her gear in waits for her opponent, looking at him intensely.
Aiello: Latoya Hixx has a big opportunity here tonight, she's facing a former World Heavyweight champion! Can you imagine the scene's if she beats Mark Storm here tonight Jere?
Piven: It would seriously be the biggest win in here career so far with Extreme Wrestling Corporation, and you've got to remember, she's only won one other match since being here!
Aiello: Despite her lack of wins, something that's undeniable is her resilience, her ability to come back at it despite losing quite a lot of times! It's admirable and I do hope that things begin to turn in the right direction for the first lady of hardcore!
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.
Jessica Stroup: And her opponent...
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.
Aiello: This match is scheduled to be a terrific one Jere, with Mark Storm coming off that loss at Scars and Stripes after an impressive showing, you've got to wonder, what's next for Mark Storm?
Piven: If there's one thing that isn't doubted, it's that Mark Storm will have his time at the helm of this promotion, but that time is not now. Who know's what's next for Mark Storm? I bet he doesn't even know what's next for him right now.
Aiello: Perhaps a run in the mid card division?
Piven: That would certainly be a smart idea Joey, he's one title away from achieving triple crown status so I bet he'll be itching to get his hands on either the International title or the X Division title.
DING DING DING
As the bell rings the two combatants begin to circle the ring and the audience are already applauding both competitors before they meet in the centre of the ring. They meet with a standard collar to elbow lock up with Storm immediately gaining the advantage by pushing Latoya back into the ropes and holding her in position whilst the referee begins the count. He brings her back into the centre of the ring and Latoya begins to fight back with hits to the mid section of Storm connecting. She manages to push him back into the ropes and launch him over to the opposite ropes. Storm returns and connects with a hard shoulder barge that sends Latoya down to the canvas with a thud. He looks around for a brief momentum before running to the ropes, bouncing off of them and is surprised to see Latoya back up on her feet, leapfrogging over him. He rebounds off of the opposite ropes and is running towards Latoya who manages to slide underneath his legs, turning him around and connecting with a vicious slap to the face.
Aiello: And Latoya Hixx with a savage slap to the face on Mark Storm!
Piven: Ouch! I could feel the connection from here Joey!
Holding onto his face and turning away, this allows time for Latoya to head to the ropes, which she does, and on her return she's met with a ferocious big boot by Mark Storm that sends her flipping inside out. Rolling to the outside, she holds onto her face whilst Storm looks at the ropes and looks at Latoya, running to the ropes and looking to leap over them but Latoya moves out of the way before Storm can make it to the ropes. He then slingshots his way onto the apron and watches Latoya for a moment, who's continuing to hold onto her face after that massive big boot by Storm. She turns around and is met with a somersault dive by Mark Storm, who gets back to his feet and roars to the audience. He then enters back into his zone, picking Latoya up by her hair and rolling her into the ring. He climbs up onto the apron and Latoya runs towards him, spearing him in the stomach as he stands on the apron. She then takes a few steps back and connects with a drop kick that sends Storm flying off of the apron and landing on the outside. It only takes a few seconds for Storm to get back on his feet, he's holding onto the apron, and Latoya is running towards him looking for a baseball slide underneath the bottom rope but Storm moves out of the way, allowing her to slide to the outside. He then connects with a flurry of shots, a concoction of elbow strikes to the head as well as forearm strikes. He then grabs her by her head and rolls her into the ring before rolling into the ring himself. Latoya gradually get's to her feet and whilst she gradually does so, Storm's off to the ropes, bouncing off of them and performing a sling blade on Latoya.
Immediately he's back up on his feet after performing the move and he carefully treads around the ring before suddenly performing a standing shooting star press on Latoya! He gets back to his feet and looks up at the heavens, nodding his head with a smirk appearing upon his lips, with the audience getting behind him.
Aiello: Mark Storm once again with a combination of moves that are stunning this live audience here tonight!
Piven: Undoubtedly one of the best performers we've got here, Joey! But he's got to be thinking about finishing this one nice and early!
Slowly, Latoya gets back to her feet and as she turns around she's hoisted onto the shoulders of Mark Storm but she's quickly able to escape by using her elbows, smashing them against the head of Storm. Sliding down his back, she turns him around and performs an arm drag that takes him down to the canvas. The two are back up on their feet and this time, it's Storm who connects with an arm drag. The two are once again back up on their feet with Storm running towards Latoya and ducking rolling under her arm, getting back up and running to the ropes, planting his hands on the canvas as he handsprings onto the ropes, landing back on his feet, quickly managing to swivel his body around to connect with a roundhouse kick! The audience are electric after that big move by Mark Storm. He's back up on her feet and awaiting for Latoya to get back on her's! Once she's up he runs towards her and connects with a bicycle knee to the face which sends her stumbling back into the ropes. She bounces off of the ropes and walks into a spinebuster by Mark Storm, who then hooks her legs for the pin.

Managing to get her shoulder up just in time!
Aiello: Latoya Hixx once again showing great resilience out here tonight!
Piven: You've gotta respect that, Joey. This kid got's balls.
The self proclaimed "reckoning of professional wrestling" nods his head in acceptance, and looks rather surprised that Latoya has managed to kick out of that one. He rises to his feet and brings Latoya up with him, bringing her to the corner where he begins a series of kicks directed at the chest of Latoya, one after the other, harder and harder as each one connects. Once reaching his tenth kick, he allows her to stagger out of the corner whilst running to the ropes himself. He springboards onto the second rope and launches himself backwards, looking for the springboard cutter but no one's home! Latoya has moved out of the way! He kips himself back to his feet and is met with a side kick by Latoya who then grabs his arm and runs to the ropes, hopping onto the second one and performing a springboard arm drag! Storm hits the canvas and arches his back as he gets back to his feet! Latoya greets him with a flurry of right hands bringing him to the ropes before Irish whipping him. Bouncing off of the opposite ropes, Storm is met with a roundhouse kick!
Almost immediately Storm kips himself back up and connects with an enziguri! Latoya stumbles but somehow manages to stay on her feet. Storm then performs a butterfly suplex and afterwards manages to lock her in an an armbar submission hold!
Aiello: STORM WITH AN ARMBAR SUBMISSION HOLD LOCKED IN AFTER THE BUTTERFLY SUPLEX!
Kicking her legs wildly, Storm manages to tighten the hold, pulling back on the arm of Latoya who restlessly kicks her legs and it works to her advantage, as her legs hit the ropes and she manages to leave it there, forcing the rope break.
Piven: And Latoya managing to get the rope break!
Getting off of her, Latoya gets to her feet and Storm connects with two punches followed by a shoot kick followed by a spinning backfist followed by a lariat. He then picks her up and grabs her by her arm, performing a short arm clothesline, also known as The Storm Strike! He then covers her..

Aiello: OVER!
DING DING DING!
Jessica Stroup: And the winner of the match... MARRK STORRMM!
Aiello: Mark Storm with the victory here tonight over Hixx. He looked good tonight, some had worried about his state of mind after his loss at Scars and Stripes but he looks to have put that behind him as he continues on his quest to complete his hit list
Piven: Indeed. We will be right back with more BRAWL right after this
BACKSTAGE
We come back from commercial and as we do Axle is standing backstage in his black Anarchy'16 shirt and black jeans.
“Things didn't go as planned at Scars and Stripes. I was supposed to win the X-Division Championship and that didn't happen. But then I got to thinking...what if I wasn't supposed to? I'm not saying that the EWC set me up, though they would be the ones to do it if they wanted to. It's fate...my fate is Tony Savage and his title. That is clear...why else would I have won the Money in the Bank?
Then I join Anarchy'16 and become the messenger. Everything is playing out how it was supposed to be, how Luke Wolfe said it would play out. Do I want that title that Savage has? Yes...will I get it? Only time will tell. I can't focus on that right now though...I have to help my brothers, Luke Wolfe especially, find there way. Luke is a great leader of men, why else would I be in Anarchy? But every great leader falters at some point and Luke has lately, he has gotten back on the right track with the win at Scars but he is still Tag Team Champions with the enemy. Something has to change there, something has to come to a end...I don't know what though.”
Axle stops a minute and takes a breath then keeps on.
“Know this though, things are going to change in the EWC and on BRAWL. Hopefully nothing has to change in Anarchy though, I have full trust in our leader. I want to put everyone on notice though...I'm not losing again anytime soon. The loss to Kinsley was only an anomaly. The loss was best for me as well as odd as that may sound. Savage, no matter who you go up against next for that title, I want you to keep winning boy simply because I am going to work my way up to the top to take that title from you, and you can guarantee that.”
Axle walks off to the right as the camera fades back to Joe and Jeremy
NON TITLE MATCH
LUNATIC
Vs HARLOW KINSLEY
Aiello: Well that was an interesting rant from Axle who seems motivated to correct the course. Up now is the woman who defeated him at Scars and Stripes
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and Gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall… Introducing first from Coral Springs, Florida, weighing in at 225 pounds… THE LUNATIC!!!!
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent from Bloody Corners, Ohio, weighing in at 130 pounds… she is the EWC X-Division Champion… NURSE… HARLOW KINSLEY!!!
The lighting in the arena starts to flicker and strobe to the beat as Melissa Auf Der Maur's "Whispers and Potions" hits the PA. Harlow Kinsley stumbles her way down the ramp, staring off into space with a vacant expression. She sometimes sways or moves to the music, and occasionally stops to stare down members of the audience; otherwise, she barely seems to know where she is.
When she reaches the ring, Kinsley slips beneath the bottom rope, slowly crawling her way across the ring. She makes it one of the corners, where she slumps against the turnbuckle, gazing off at the ceiling. After several seconds of just sitting there with a blank face on, she grabs the middle ropes with both hands, and hoists herself to her feet.
Aiello: Yet another debut here tonight, as The Lunatic takes on Nurse Harlow Kinsley, and if anyone can match Kinsley in this X-Division Blood Sport it looks to be this Lunatic.
Piven: I wouldn’t get too excited just yet Joe, there have been VERY few people who have been able to stand toe to toe in the ring with Nurse Zombie in there.
Aiello: That may be the case but Lunatic doesn’t look the least bit spooked, typically Kinsley’s mind games start long before the bell rings.
DING DING DING!!!
Lunatic quickly meets Kinsley in the middle of the ring with a collar and elbow tie up! He backs her up into the corner before breaking the grapple opening up Kinsley for a knife edge chop! The crowd pops with every chop across the chest! But the look on Kinsley’s face doesn’t change, she stumbles out of the corner but there isn’t an emotion to be found on the face of Harlow Kinsley. But Lunatic doesn’t let up, he grabs Kinsley and sends her into the ropes and as Kinsley bounces off he looks for a clothsline, but she ducks it hitting the other side bouncing off but this time Lunatic connects with a vicious back elbow!!! Kinsley crashes down to the mat holding her mouth, rolling over onto her hands and knees, Lunatic stomps on her hand, as she bounces up and then gets a dropkick to the face!
Aiello: Lunatic is on fire to start this match! Kinsley seems to be taken completely out of her game!
Piven: I wouldn’t get too excited just yet, many a man has thought they had taken the zombie down, only for her to rise from the grave.
Lunatic picks up Kinsley and hits her with a double underhook suplex! He goes for the cover!
One!

Kickout!!!
Aiello: Too early!
Piven: It’s gonna take much more than that to put down Kinsley.
Lunatic picks Harlow up to her feet, but she shoves him off and the two lock eyes. Kinsley doesn’t appear to be the least bit effected by Lunatic’s fury of offense to start the match, but Lunatic only laughs in the face of Kinsley! The two begin to trade lefts and rights! Both jockeying for position! Kinsley doesn’t back up, and she gets the advantage over Lunatic as she backs him up against the ropes with right hands to the skull! She bounces him off the ropes but Lunatic reverses it and curls Kinsley into a small package!!!
One!
.
.

.
Two!

Kickout!!!
Aiello: Lunatic is really ontop of his game tonight! He almost got an quick victory over Harlow nearly catching her off guard for the three!
Piven: How do you beat crazy? With crazy!
The two get up, and Lunatic lifts Kinsley above his head, looking to drop her on the outside, but she slides off his hands at the last minute, and as Lunatic turns around she clothslines him over the top rope! Lunatic tumbles to the floor, and Kinsley walks backwards to the middle of the ring. As Lunatic stands up Kinsley slowly raises her hand and signals for Lunatic to “bring it”. Lunatic slides in under the bottom rope with rage on his face and charges Kinsley who ducks a running clothsline from Lunatic, and locks in the painful crossface chickenwing!!! Lunatic has been taken completely off guard as she locks it in tight in the middle of the ring! Lunatic falls to his knees reaching for the ropes as he tells the ref that he wont give up. He reaches out as far as he can trying to grab that middle rope just inches away, Kinsley’s eyes begin to roll in the back of her head, as if she is getting some sort of sick pleasure out of this just as Lunatic swipes out and grabs the bottom rope! She refuses to let go, as the ref has to wrench her off of him.
Aiello: That may have taken the fight out of Lunatic.
Piven: He certainly seems to have lost some steam.
Lunatic lays prone on the mat with his arm draped over the middle rope, as Kinsley gets to her feet slowly stalking Lunatic grabbing one of his feet and dragging him to the middle of the ring, as if he is some sort of sacrifice or something. She drops his leg as she drags him to the middle of the ring, as she hooks it for a cover!
One!
.
.

Two!
.

Kickout!
Aiello: Lunatic was almost caught sleeping after that chickenwing, but he got the shoulder up just in time.
Lunatic gets up stumbling over to the ropes as Kinsley stands ominously in the middle of the ring. Lunatic laughs, as he looks back at the stone faced Kinsley. He walks to the middle of the ring, laughing in her face before he locks up with her again with a collar and elbow tie up, he slings her into the corner turnbuckle following in close behind as he dropkicks her to the face just as she hits the corner! Kinsley stumbles out right into the waiting arms of Lunatic to lifts up Kinsley and drops her into a brainbuster!!! He hooks the leg!
One!
.

Two!

Kinsley get’s her foot on the rope!
Aiello: Kinsley saved by the bottom rope! What a debut this has been for Lunatic! He is taking it right to Harlow Kinsley and doesn’t seem to be the least bit intimidated by her.
Piven: I want his help during the zombie apocalypse!
Lunatic follows up with what appears to be similar to what Kinsley did earlier as he drags her by one foot to the middle of the ring, but he quickly goes to the top rope steadying himself looking for VOICES! … but he crashes and burns and hits nothing but canvas as Kinsley rolls out of the way! Lunatic gets to his feet holding his stomach doubled over and walks right into a DDT from Kinsley! She plants him square on his head, and then grabs him by the legs draging him over to the corner turnbuckle. She slides outside the ring and whips his left leg around the corner post! Lunatic shouts out in pain, as he grabs at his knee, trying to drag himself away. But Kinsley again pulls him back to the post and repeats it again! Whipping his leg around the post! Again Lunatic grabs at his knee, Kinsley goes for a it a third time but this time, when she has a hold of his feet, Lunatic pulls her forward as she runs face first into the post! Kinsley stumbles backwards and turns around bracing herself on the guard rail, just as she sees Lunatic leap off the top rope! Looking for “Voices” once again and this time he comes crashing down on top of Kinsley on the outside and the crowd jumps to their feet!!!
“THIS IS AWESOME!!!”
“THIS IS AWESOME!!!”
“THIS IS AWESOME!!!”
“THIS IS AWESOME!!!”
“THIS IS AWESOME!!!”
Aiello: These two are putting on a clinic tonight and Lunatic is really showing why he belongs in the EWC!
Lunatic grabs Kinsley and walks over and slams her face down on the announcers desk! She falls backwards into the ring apron, and Lunatic doesn’t let up, he grabs her and whips her into the steel steps but she reverses it at the last minute and Lunatic crashes back first into the steps!!!
“OOOHHHH!!!”
Kinsley grabs Lunatic and throws him in the ring under the bottom rope, she follows in behind grabbing him by the head and slamming his head down over and over again on the corner pad! Lunatic stumbles back and falls back on his back… stunned he holds his forehead. Kinsley tilts her head, and then quickly climbs the turnbuckle to the top rope! She leaps off the top with a SENTON BOMB!!! Connecting perfectly as she hooks the leg in one fluid motion!!!
The crowd counts along…
“ONE!”
.
.
.
.
“TWO!”
.
.
.
.
“THREE!!!”
DING DING DING!!!
Aiello: This one is over! Kinsley has come out on top but WHAT a performance from Lunatic!
Piven: There is no shame in losing to Harlow, and I think Lunatic made a great point toward getting a shot at her X-Division Title in the future. This one could have gone either way. Excellent performances all around
Jessica Stroup: Here is your winner… NURSE… HARLOW KINSLEY!!!
Kinsley has her arm raised in victory as Lunatic sits in the corner, watching smiling. Knowing he will have another shot at her again as we head to commercial.
BRAWL VS RAMPAGE NO DQ MATCH
CANNONBALL-KID
Vs KENNETH WILLIAMS
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for your main event of the evening! The following contest is a no disqualification match, and it is a Brawl versus Rampage match!
Entrance music “Jambi” by Tool commences playing on the P.A. system and is immediately met with a mixture of cheers and jeers as Curtis Wayne, known as Cannonball-Kid, comes out from behind the black curtains and into the bright lights of the entrance ramp.
Jessica Stroup: Introducing first representing RAMPAGE.. from Natchitoches, Los Angeles - weighing in a two hundred and seventy nine pounds, he is Hell's Guardian... CANNONBALL-KID!
Cannonball-Kid, sporting his black and red trunks and a t-shirt branded Hells Guardian, makes slow and precise steps advancing towards the ring, never directing his glance anywhere other than the opponent in the ring. Kid stops at the base of the ring apron, rotates his shoulders, and hops onto the ring apron. Kid is met with a shower of sparks coming from above the ring glowing red and white. Kid steps into the ring, rotates his shoulders a few times, and signals to the referee his is ready for the bout.
Aiello: It's main event time Jere and what a match up we've got in store for you folks. Cannonball Kid back here on Monday Night Brawl taking on Kenneth Williams! Both of these men were the last members of their teams in the ring at Scars and Stripes and seriously showed that they've got what it takes to go places!
Piven: We're familiar with both of these men, they've both had stints here in the past. Kenneth of course was with us early last year under the tutorship of John Green, returning this year with an upgrade on his level of capability.
Aiello: Kenneth Williams has had quite the start since returning, with some high profile matches already in the books! I don't think we'll have to wait very long for this kid to be contending for the International title or the X Division title.
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.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent representing BRAWL...
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.
Jessica Stroup: From Austin Texas, weighing in a two hundred and twenty five pounds.. he is The Human Highlight Reel, Yours Truly... KENNETH WILLIAMS!
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.
Aiello: Kenneth Williams has a huge task here tonight, to overcome CBK! Cannonball Kid was of course with us in two thousand and ten, and during his time here he competed in a number of high profile matches, most notably managing to secure a victory at Stranglemania in the Rage in a Cage match, alongside Kyle Deathlocke and Michael Howel.
Piven: He's one of the most intimidating men you'll ever come across. Looking at him standing inside that ring, two hundred and eight pounds, six foot four, this man is an animal and I wouldn't want to be in Kenneth William's position right now.
Aiello: Williams sure as hell knows this isn't going to be easy, not at all! But I believe he's got what it takes!
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.
DING DING DING
The bell rings and immediately Kenneth Williams is out of his corner and gunning towards CBK with everything he's got, forcing him into his corner and delivering a flurry of shots in quick succession, with the audience getting in behind him. CBK manages to force him off of him, grabbing him and literally throwing him to the other side of the ring, but this doesn't stop Kenneth Williams. No. This only motivates him even more, getting back to his feet immediately and going back at it with a flurry of shots to CBK, hunting him down like a relentless dog. CBK once again launches him to the other side of the ring, with an obvious annoyance beginning to plaster on his face. Kenneth Williams is back up on his feet and heads towards CBK, ducking under a clothesline and running to the ropes. Bouncing off of them, he greets CBK with a kick upwards as CBK was in a bent position. He then performs an enziguri kick that sends CBK rocking around the ring, managing to stay on his feet but not for long. Kenneth Williams runs to the ropes, springboards off of the second rope and catches CBK with a moonsault over his head, managing to stand in position before performing an inverted DDT. He rises to his feet and the audience applaud him for his efforts.
Aiello: WOW! Cannonball Kid doesn't know what just hit him!
Piven: Looks like Kenneth Williams is trying to avenge Brawl, go on kid!
Looking around the ring, Williams notices that CBK has rolled to the outside and is resting against the steel barricade. He looks around the arena and the audience are urging him to do something spectacular. He smirks and answers their call, running to the ropes, bouncing off of them and running to the opposite ropes, taking a leap of faith as he attempts a corkscrew senton to the outside, and connects, to the audience's delight! He rises to his feet once more and feeds off of the energy of the audience, beating his hands on his chest and grinning. He then turns his attention back on CBK, picking him up and leaning him against the apron. He then backs up a little before running at him but CBK manages to lift him up, running into the barricades, with the back of Kenneth Williams connecting with the barricade! CBK doesn't let go of him, he hoists him up higher and performs a belly to belly suplex and Williams lands on his back, arching it afterwards.
With Cannonball Kid now with the advantage, he takes time to recuperate, breathing heavily as he looks down at a struggling Williams. He then picks him up and leads him over to the steel ring steps, throwing him into the steps and the shoulder of Williams connecting viciously with the wicked ring steps. Cannonball Kid begins to laugh as the audience nearby begin to boo him. He grabs Williams and leads him away from the ring steps and it looks as if he's leading him to the announcers table but suddenly he turns around and sends Williams into the ring steps again, with the shoulder of Williams once again enduring most of the impact!
Aiello: Jesus! The shoulder of Kenneth Williams must be in agony right now.
Piven: And you can tell by the look on CBK's face, that's going to be a target all night long.
A sadistic smirk on his face, CBK stretches his arms out wide and roars to the audience, who jeer at him.
Aiello: You've got to remember Jere, Cannonball Kid has great experience inside that ring he's been doing this for over a decade whilst Kenneth Williams is a relative newbie.
Piven: Maybe it wasn't such a smart idea for Kenneth Williams to go all guns blazing right at the beginning but I'm sure he can get back into this one, Joey. This is bigger than him, this is for the pride of Brawl!
By this time, Williams had reached the announce table, managing to crawl away from the ring steps and is using the table to help himself back up to his feet. Wrong move. From behind comes Cannonball Kid, who knee's him repeatedly in the gut, one after the other connecting harder and harder with each knee, winding Williams. He then connects with an uppercut, followed by two quick jabs before a punishing elbow that sends Williams back down to the ground.
Picking Williams up by his head, there's a sudden resurgence of life within Kenneth who begins to fight back with shots being fired into the mid section of Cannonball Kid who begins to ease up. Once he fully releases Williams from his grip, Williams connects with a kick to the side of CBK, followed by another kick, and another before CBK catches his leg, but Williams manages to swing his other leg that connects with CBK's chest and sends him down to the floor. Williams gets back to his feet and picks CBK up, throwing him into the commentary table and the back of CBK connects with the edge of the table! Williams then runs towards him and performs a hurricanrana! Williams rises to his feet and immediately looks under the ring, bringing out a steel chair and for a moment, stares at the chair. He then stares at Cannonball Kid, before staring back at the chair. A sickening grin embeds on his face, to the pleasure of the audience who cheer him on. Cannonball Kid is up by the ring post and has no idea where Williams is. He turns the corner...
SMASH
The steel chair connects with the head of Cannonball Kid!
SMASH
SMASH
Aiello: AND KENNETH WILLIAMS GOING ABSOLUTELY CRAZY WITH THE STEEL CHAIR IN HIS GRASP!
Connecting with several more shots across the back of the grounded Cannonball Kid, Williams pauses, and is obviously exhausted. He throws the chair aside and picks Cannonball Kid by his head and manages to roll him into the ring whilst, hoisting himself up onto the top rope.
Piven: AND NOW WILLIAMS IS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING BIG!
Positioning himself on the top rope..
He looks down at Cannonball Kid..

Not enough for the win!
Williams beats his hands on the canvas as an attempt to rally on the demoralized audience, who are soon rejuvenated as Williams gets back to his feet and pleads for them to get going. CBK is back up on his feet by the corner and Williams runs towards him, with CBK managing to lift him up and over the rope rope. Thinking that Williams has landed on the outside, CBK walks to the centre of the ring with his hands on his hips, unaware that Williams is preparing himself on the apron as he managed to land on it. He turns around and is met with a springboard crossbody by Williams. The two are back up on their feet moments after with Williams performing a hurricanrana. Both men race to their feet for a second time and this time it's Cannonball Kid who manages to connect with a maneuver, lifting Williams up onto his shoulders and performing a firemans carry slam. Cannonball Kid then picks Williams up and throws him into the corner. He runs to him and looks for a big splash in the corner but Williams rolls out of the way. Cannonball Kid turns around and runs towards Williams looking for a clothesline but Williams ducks under his arm before connecting with a:
Aiello: PELE KICK FROM KENNETH WILLIAMS!
Piven: CANNONBALL KID LOOKS STUNNED!
The eyes of Cannonball Kid widen but he manages to stay on his feet, stumbling backwards into the ropes and returning to the centre of the ring with a sudden second wind!
Aiello: BIG BOOT! CANNONBALL KID WITH HIS TRADEMARK FOOTPRINT BIG BOOT!
Falling to the canvas, CBK covers Williams!

Aiello: AND KENNETH WILLIAMS HAS GOT A SHOULDER UP!
Cheers and chants from the audience begin to increase and Cannonball Kid can't believe what just happened! Burying his head in his hands he rises to his feet and watches Kenneth Williams crawl over to the ropes. Williams uses the ropes to help himself back up to his feet and CBK is running towards him, Williams holds onto the top rope and pulls down on it, allowing CBK to go over the top rope. Williams then runs to the ropes, bounces off of them and then runs towards the opposite ropes, performing a suicide dive onto CBK!
LET'S GO KENNETH!
LET'S GO KENNETH!
LET'S GO KENNETH!
Aiello: The audience tonight are electric!
Piven: Williams has got to keep his cool and see the rest of this one out, one big move and this one is all over! Come on kid, do it for Brawl!
Rising to his feet, Williams grabs CBK and leads him over to the commentary table. He slams his head against the table before clearing the table, to the approval of the audience, who applaud him and rally him on.
Aiello: Looks like we've gotta move!
Williams uses all of his strength to lay CBK across the commentary table. He makes sure that CBK is out before rolling back into the ring and making the climb up to the top rope. He hoists himself up onto the top rope and he positions himself and looks down at CBK, lying on the commentary table, and the volume is turned up another notch.
There's a real sense of danger in the atmosphere as Williams stands on the top rope..
And takes a deep breath before leaping off of the top rope..
Flipping in the air as he looks to connect with a four hundred and fifty splash...

BOOOOM
Aiello: HE'S MOVED OUT OF THE WAY!
Piven: OH MY GOD, KENNETH WILLIAMS JUST WENT THROUGH THE DAMN ANNOUNCE TABLE!
CBK gradually gets to his feet and picks Williams up by his head. Rolling him into the ring before rolling in himself. CBK crouches in a corner and waits for Williams to get back up onto his feet. His eyes flaring up with excitement as he laughs sadistically, eagerly awaiting for Williams to get up!
Williams is up..
Turning around..
Aiello: DROP TOP SPEAR FROM CANNONBALL KID!
Piven: NOT LIKE THIS, C'MON KENNY!
He covers.

DING DING DING!
The bell rings and the theme song of Cannonball Kid plays through the speakers. CBK rises to his feet and his arm is raised by the official, jeers echoing around the arena as CBK soaks up the glory.
Jessica Stroup: AND THE WINNER OF THE MATCH.. CANNONBALL KID!
Roaring to the audience Cannonball Kid looks up at the heavens and roars before looking back down at Kenneth Williams, who's gradually making it back up to his feet. Williams is helped up by the official and is holding onto his shoulder. He nods his head, accepting defeat and stretches his right hand out for a handshake.
Aiello: You've gotta respect that from Kenneth Williams, wanting a handshake despite defeat!
Piven: Nah, fuck that! Williams just lost it for Brawl! He should be fuming!
Cannonball Kid looks at the hand of Kenneth Williams and looks at the audience, asking them whether he should accept it. He then looks back at Williams and accepts the handshake before embracing him with a hug!
Aiello: That's sweet!
CBK doesn't seem to be letting go despite Williams obvious facial expressions and body language indicating he doesn't want any part in this. CBK then suddenly lifts Williams up and hits him with a belly to belly suplex, a thunderous thud echoing through the arena as Williams lands on his back.
Aiello: WHAT THE HELL?!
CBK then mounts on top of Kenneth Williams and connects with a series of punches to the head of Kenneth Williams, who is defenseless! Boo's echo through the arena as CBK picks Williams up and leans him against the corner, relentlessly striking him everywhere, with Williams eating every shot, taking it like a warrior.
Aiello: CANNONBALL KID HAS SNAPPED!
Piven: HE JUST WON, HE HAS NO REASON TO DO THIS!
All of a sudden a group of security come rushing down the entrance ramp and enter the ring to separate the two men. Williams manages to escape the grasp of his group of security guards trying to block him and leaps onto CBK and connects with a vicious right hand, that those in attendance could feel as it connected.
CBK is escorted out of the ring as Williams is being dragged away. Williams then allows the security guards to stop him, backing off and telling them he wants no more, before a last second decision see's him flying over the top rope and landing on CBK!
Aiello: THIS IS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL! On behalf of Jeremy Piven, thank you for watching Monday Night Brawl. We will see you next week in Edmonton for BRAWL episode 459. Be sure to also tune into Friday Night Rampage this week as they air a 3 Hour Special for episode 400. Good night everyone.
BACKSTAGE
The Sheikh busts out of his room in anger leaving the door wide open, he calls out for his servant to follow him in his rage but Abdul Kabeer seems to be more absorbed with the job of spray cleaning the windows.
The camera lets itself into the room to investigate the reason for the sudden outburst from the Sheikh and there it is on his desk, a death threat, boldly written and right in front of the chair you can easily tell whoever it was let himself in and assumed the most comfort when he sat there and composed it.
A visit to the president did not let the Sheikh return to his locker room immediately after his match, even if it did he would probably have still met the same note, the man has goons to do his dirty work, one suspect. Vinny Gigante.
“Where is he? Vinny?”
“He…He left about 2 minutes ago, you just missed him”
Sheikh now has the security guard by his shirt thrusts him into the wall behind and sprints, a little bit towards his white 2016 Mercedes Benz S- Class. He takes one glance backwards and sees no trace of his servant he pulls the key out of his pocket and hops into the car, starts the engine and then fires off to catch up with Vinny and when he does….
Immediately he gets out of the parking lot, he tries to make hit the brakes and make a sharp turn but the brakes fail, no, they have been CUT. He forcefully turns the steering wheel but to little too late and at 60 miles per hour already the side of the car crashes into the wall and the airbags explode colliding with him from the side and the steering. He never had his seat-belts fastened making for further damage.
His head ringing he manages to climb out the passenger side of the car with the drivers side buried in the wall. Blood trickling down his face as the security guard he held prisoner a moment ago and Abdul Kabeer rush to his aid. He crashes to the floor by the side of the car hardly able to move.
The security radios in for an ambulance as the scene fades out and BRAWL comes to an end
