The show is live... and the excitement is at a fever pitch!
Aiello: Welcome to Monday Night BRAWL everyone! We have a jam packed show for you tonight and it starts with the BRAWL Tournament!
Piven: This is a card of epic proportions Joe. Pay Per View worthy for sure, Joe. It's going to be an exciting night.
Aiello: One hell of a show for your last one, Joe. It's been a nice ride, Jeremy. Not going to be the same without you for sure, you'll be missed.
Piven: It's been a fun ride with you Joe, I'll miss you for sure. I think I'll miss all of the BRAWL superstars, Joe.
Aiello: The opening match of tonight also happens to be the first match of the tournament. We have the debut of Titus Marks vs Latoya Hixx who has really been on a cold streak lately. Titus will be looking to win his first match while Latoya will be looking to get back on the winning train.
Piven: The second match of the night is going to be a good one, Joe. Lunatic vs Gloriana. Lunatic lost last week against Emma Louise so you know he'll be wanting a win tonight, especially since it's the first round of the tournament. Both of these competitors will be looking for a breakthrough match.
Aiello: Kenneth Willams vs Mark Storm is the third match of the night, Jeremy. Mark Storm got a win over Tony Savage last week, much needed after losing to Xplode at Scars and Stripes in what was a classic. Storm is for sure going to look to get to the finals of this tournament. We know there is a surprise prize and he'll be wanting that but standing in his way is a good young talent in Kenneth Williams.
Piven: We got another good one in this match as well, Joe. Axle Aomori vs Alexis Morrison. This will for sure be a good back and forth match. Axle is a good up and comer who has the stuff just hasn't been able to put it all together. Alexis Morrison was on Rampage and just lost her US Title at Scars and Stripes. She'll be looking to get her first win here on BRAWL over Axle. It won't be easy.
Aiello: Another good one in match five. This one is going to be personal though. Vinny Gigante vs Sheikh Raslan If you remember right, a few weeks ago Vinny scared Sheikh half to death and almost killed him as well. But last week right before Vinnys match, Sheikh got revenge and beat up on Vinny. I'm interested to see this one for sure. This one will be personal and violent.
Piven: Our last match before the main event, also the last match in the first round is Ashton Drake vs Emma Louise. Emma has been up and down lately, getting the win last week over Lunatic but Ashton has shown some real promise the first couple weeks he has been here. This could be the most intriguing one of the night, they both have something to prove which will make it good.
Aiello: But the big match of the night, the Main event pits not just two champions against one another. But the top two contenders for the EWC Heavyweight Championship. Harlow, of course has a shot at Xplodes Title at Night of Champions but you have to believe that Tony is next in line for whoever wins the title. This will be the best match of the night for sure in a jam packed night of good matches.
Piven: I can't wait, this is going to be a great night. All of these matches have potential to be classics. So this will for sure be a fun night, seven matches, all great. Let's rock.
Aiello: Without further adue, please help me welcome EWC Hall of Famer. Shadow Man!
Piven: This is a card of epic proportions Joe. Pay Per View worthy for sure, Joe. It's going to be an exciting night.
Aiello: One hell of a show for your last one, Joe. It's been a nice ride, Jeremy. Not going to be the same without you for sure, you'll be missed.

A SPECIAL FAREWELL TO JEREMY PIVEN
WITH GUEST HOST: SHADOW MAN & LIVE PERFORMANCE BY ALICIA KEYS
'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' begins to blast over the PA system and the entire arena erupts in cheers a Taco Food Truck comes driving down the ramp way. The TITAN TRON flickers on and the crowd goes even more insane as the feed shows Shadow Man and actor TJ Miller inside the Taco Food Truck holding ... Tacos and stuff
The truck comes to a stop and Shadow Man exits, slapping fives all the way to the ring. TJ meanwhile begins shooting tacos from a shirt cannon into the stands. Each Taco explodes on impact and pretty soon the entire arena is smelling like ground beef and salsa.
Shadow Man runs over to the announcers booth and jumps onto Jeremy Pivens lap
Shadow Man: Helllllllllloooooooo Winnipeg. It's good to be home
The crowed is going absolutely insane
Shadow Man: Jeremy and I are really good friends. Have been for some time now. Throw the picture up Tron man
Shadow Man: One of many Jeremy Piven After BRAWL After Parties. Red eyes Jer. Red eyes. Remember that time you fucked a goat? You silly goat fucker you.
Piven: (laughing) Hey man ... what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas
Shadow Man: Except herpes ... that shit will follow you home
Piven: I don't even remember whose blood that was ... good lord ...
Shadow Man: Then there was that time when you professed your love for Alicia Keys and asked her on a date infront of ..... EVERY .... ONE .... throw that pic up Tron Man
Shadow Man runs over to the announcers booth and jumps onto Jeremy Pivens lap
Shadow Man: Helllllllllloooooooo Winnipeg. It's good to be home
The crowed is going absolutely insane

Shadow Man: Ladies and Gentleman .... miss Alicia Keys
The crowd erupts as Alicia Keys stands at the top of the ramp. She blows a kiss towards Jeremy and then begins to sing "No one"
while a video of the very best of Jeremy Piven plays on the Titan Tron
The crowd cheers as Alicia makes her way down to greet Jeremy and gives him a passionate kiss before heading back up the ramp
Shadow Man: Jeremy, the entire EWC loves you. The people love you. I love you. Even Joe Aiello loves you. We are all going to miss the shit out of you and all of your glorious parties. But don't take my word for it ...
The Titan Tron comes back on as a few recorded statements play out
-----Emma Louise Video-----
"They asked me if I wanted to talk about Jeremy. Most places in wrestling have their own announcers. Two guys that outside of the territory nobody has heard of. When I came to EWC I was taken aback when I saw we had Colin Hanks, David Arquette and Jeremy Piven on our announce teams. I liked this idea. I felt that by bringing in mainstream celebrities to the show was a good way of making fans notice the show. It made me feel that this was a company that meant business and it was one of the reasons that I signed with EWC.
But I'm not sitting here to give a history of the commentary or why I signed for EWC. I'm here to talk about Jeremy Piven.
It is an insider thing to say that the job of commentary is to talk about the wrestlers and discus what is going on so that you, the fans, invest and care about the people in the ring. Jeremy looked at me and liked what he saw. He could have talked about my moves, what I do in the ring or even my hair in a bid to 'get me over' with the fans. He didn't. He looked at me and had a crush on me. He would sit every week on commentary and he'd probably say some kind of rude comment as he would deal with his infatuation.
I'm not going to complain. His comments about me made people notice me. In multi person battle royals Jeremy's comments would always ensure a camera would show me. He would say something that would make me stand out. If it wasn't for Jeremy Piven, I wold probably have faded into obscurity. For that I am eternally grateful.
Jeremy Piven could have come in to EWC. He could have sat at the announce table and plugged Selfridge, Entourage or whatever movie he was in. He didn't. He became such a part of the announce team that when he goes, there will be a huge gap to fill.
Jeremy, I will miss you and I'll be sure to catch up with you before you go. I have a leaving gift for you and I also got you a little something for your birthday."
She blows a kiss at the camera

She blows a kiss at the camera
-----Griffin Hawkins Rampage TV Champion Video-----
"It's never a good thing when someone leaves us...we in EWC are like a family. And it feels as if we're losing one of our own. Jeremy Piven is one of the most respected commentators in the game today...not many can match his style. When I wrestled a few times on Brawl he called my match the best he could..even though I was a Rampage guy. I hope he's happy with whatever endeavor he chooses."
-----Bob Loblaw Video-----
"Jeremy, as a fan of your acting career, I am excited to see you more and more on the large and small screen. You were one of the first people I met when I came to EWC and we became fast friends. I love your outlook on life and partying with you at the after-shows has been a blast. I look forward to representing you in a future lawsuit. Happy Birthday old man, and best of luck to you"
-----Ruthless Aggression Video-----
"I would like to thank you for everything Piven. You have been a great addition to this company. You have helped placed us wrestler on another level by calling our matches. You are one of the best of the best in my eyes. I am sending all my love out to you and I truly hope the best for you and your family. Till we meet again. I am not going to say goodbye but see you again."
-----EWC Champion: Jaden Xplode Hunter Video-----
"Piven and I go way back. We are great friends and have a lot of hilarious stories to share. His parties are some of the best I have ever attended. Piven has always been one of my biggest supporters, and I will miss his commentary. All the best Jer, don't stay away too long, oh and happy 50th bud. Cheers"
-----President Mac Video-----
"Jeremy, it pains me to see you leave us. At the same time, the world is far too behind on your talent. You are one of the hardest working actors in Hollywood, and it's only a matter of time until we hear the words 'And the Academy Award for best Party Ever goes to ....' In all seriousness, yours is a void that will be impossible to fill with just one person. You are a light at the end of a tunnel that burns brightly, leading us on the path to laughter. You will be missed but not forgotten. This is not goodbye, but see you soon. Good luck with everything, and come home any time. Much love my brother"
The scene cuts back to Jeremy Piven who is in tears
Shadow Man: We love you Jeremy. Thank you for ten awesome years. Good luck in movies, in tv and most of all ... in life. Ladies and Gentleman ... give it up for Jeremy Piven
The crowd erupts once more as we head to commercial

BACKSTAGE
Ace Heart: We're here with Titus Marks, who is not only making his debut in EWC, but also is in this tournament that has been announced. Titus, I'd like to get your thoughts on a few things.
Titus Marks: Sure thing, what's up?
Ace Heart: Well, first off Titus, I'd like to ask what it means for you to be in this tournament?
Titus Marks: Well, to be honest, it's just a huge honor to even be in the EWC. After spending time retired, I didn't know if any company would take a chance on me... And for that company to be EWC, the best in professional wrestling, well that's just incredible. The fact that I get to debut in a tournament is just icing on that cake.
Ace Heart: That's good to hear. Speaking of this tournament, how do you plan on beating your first opponent, the 'First Lady of Hardcore' Latoya Hixx?
Titus Marks: Latoya is going to be a tough opponent, she's fierce and competitive. I'm hoping that, like I said leading up into the week in my promo you can find on EWC TV, that I can use her arrogance, and that competitiveness, against her. It's going to be hard, but I feel like Latoya doesn't have the respect of professional wrestling that one should have going into a tournament of this magnitude.
Ace Heart: I understand. She's sassy to me every week. Speaking of this tournament, and looking ahead, how far do you think you can realistically go?
Titus Marks: I'm going to give you the generic answer that I know interviewers and fans hate, but I'm really just taking this tournament one match at a time. Like I said, I'm honored to even be here, so competing at all is a pleasure.
Ace Heart: How about the others? Who do you think poses the biggest thread?
Titus Marks: The biggest threat is the one you face week-to-week. So, for now, the biggest threat in this tournament is Latoya Hixx. If I start thinking about the others, and what they're capable of, then I lose sight of this match, and that's not something I plan on doing.
Ace Heart: If you were to look ahead to the very end, do you have any guesses on what the winner will get?
Titus Marks: I have no idea, but I know it would be something grand. President Mac never fails to deliver.
Ace Heart: That's all I have for now. Thank you for your time, Titus, and good luck in your match tonight.
Titus Marks: Thanks, Ace. And thanks again to the EWC world for embracing me. I'm not going to let you all down.
BRAWL TOURNAMENT
TWELVE MEN AND WOMEN. THREE GRUELLING WEEKS. A SURPRISE PRIZE.
TITUS MARKS
Vs LATOYA HIXX
TITUS MARKS
Vs LATOYA HIXX
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and Gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall and is the first matchup in the Brawl tournament. Introducing first from Zurich, Switzerland, standing in at 6ft 3inches and weighing in at 245 pounds; Titus MARK!
The opening chords of "Defy You" by The Offspring blast out over the PA System, and the fans rise to their feet. Titus Marks follows closely behind the opening verse, stepping out onto the entrance ramp with his right arm raised in the air. He pauses at the top of the entrance ramp, looks around the entrance ramp, then slaps his chest with his right hand three times, mimicked by the fans. Marks points at the nearest fan, then takes a charging run down the ramp, and slides underneath the bottom rope. He rises to one knee, pauses to a second in prayer, then jumps up with his right arm in the air, followed by the same three chest slap. After that, he steps to his corner.
Aiello: Out with the old and in with the new, Welcome to EWC Mr. Titus Mark
Piven: Did you just call me old Joe?
Aiello: Well you do look good for a 70 year old
Piven: I’m 50 Aiello
Aiello: Father time has not been fair to you my friend
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent from New York City, standing at 5 ft 5 inches and weighing in at 114 pounds, the first lady of hardcore, Latoya Hixx
She comes out in her bling coat in wears her white Sunglasses in poses on the stage in walks down in hops on the ropes and shows her Boss Brass Knuckles in gets in the ring in takes off her gear.
Aiello: Jeremy, what do you think about Latoya Hixx
Piven: Joe I really cannot understand what’s going on with her, she has been on quite a losing streak; she has so much potential but at this point is not living up to it.
Aiello: Well she has a golden opportunity if any to get back to winning ways, she is facing a man who is probably rusty from retirement.
Piven: I don’t think he will be easy to get one over Joe, he is quite experienced, but only one way to find out
DING DING DING!!!
Latoya goes on the attack immediately, she begins to unload with punches to the face of Titus Mark, each punch sending him a step back, by the 5th punch Titus is able to block the punch and then retaliate with a headbutt right inbetween the eyes of Latoya. She goes staggering backwards and then Titus goes straight into the attack with a flying shoulder crashing his opponent into the mat, both superstars recover immediately and spring back to their feet. They begin to circle each other both seem hesitant to strike first but then Hixx goes in for the tackle but the more experienced Titus is able to side step her, he then goes for a head she pulls back and the feet swings and misses her head, she then responds with a roundhouse kick which connects to the dome of Titus Mark
Aiello: Well Latoya has had a convincing start, she is looking up for this fight
Piven: I think she really loves surprises and she will do her best to get that surprise president Mac got hidden away.
With Mark on the Mat Latoya is adamant on keeping her advantage, she makes her way to the top turnbuckle. The crowd go wild, an exciting opener to the show, she waits several moments and once her opponent gets to his feet she hits him with a suicide dive off the top turnbuckle sending him rolling backwards and ending up on his back down on the mat. Latoya crawls over to her fallen victim and goes for the pin.
Aiello: Showing why she is the first Lady of hardcore right there
Piven: LATOYA COULD WIN IT HERE

Titus Mark gets his hand on the ropes, the referee is keen enough to notice it, he breaks the pin and Latoya doesn’t seem happy about it. She pulls her opponent to his feet and then hits him with an elbow to the face, Titus Mark falls back a little clutching his face, Latoya bounces off the ropes behind her and goes for a knee but Titus grabs her and lands a devastating powerslam knocking all the wind out of his opponent. He lies on the mat a little bit to catch his breath, he then uses the ropes to guide himself back to his feet slowly whilst Latoya does the same. Mark wastes no time in grappling his opponent once she returns to a standing position. Both tussle for the superior position but the bigger man wins the battle for the advantage and then connects with a snap suplex, he is not letting his grip go, he goes for another, Connects..
Aiello: Titus have some mercy, don’t do it
Piven: He is Joe, He is going for the third, and… Connects!! He’s going for the cover.

Kick out!
Titus Mark picks up his fallen opponent and sends her to the rope, as she returns he sets up for a hip toss but gets clobbered by a clothesline, he recovers immediately but back comes Latoya with another clothesline which she connects. Rushing back to his feet to the full momentum of Latoya Hixx she comes back with a third clothesline but this time she has Mark also charging at her in the opposite direction, a yakuza kick.
Aiello: Oh my God, how on earth did he do that, The KFO.
Piven: I think this one is over Joe, he just jerked her head backwards.
Titus Mark crashes to the mat after connecting with the kick, he crawls his way to his opponent and goes for the pin.

DING DING DING!
Jessica Stroup: Here is your winner, and on to the next round, Titus Mark!
Aiello: He did it, what an impressive debut from this man, started off slow but eventually got to the flow of the match.
Piven: You have to give it to Latoya, she brought the fight and it could have gone either way but at the end of the day Titus Mark edged out a victory. Who will Titus face next? Only time will tell, for now ... we'll be back after this!
BACKSTAGE
The scenes opens to see Lunatic sitting backstage on black crate with EWC's logo sticker on it. Immediately cheers erupt from the fans within the arena and as Lunatic sat there, he'd begin to wrap his hands in bandages.
Off in the distance a familiar voice can be heard calling Lunatic's name. The psychotic fighter looks up from what he was doing and pass the camera's view. Within seconds Ace Heart would appear with a mic in hand.
"Sorry for the bother, but do you have any comments on the tournament you're taking part in tonight? Maybe who you think poses the biggest threat out of all the contestants?"
Lunatic looks Ace Heart over a few times and chuckle lightly. He gives Ace a slow shake of his head then subtly shrugs his shoulders.
"That's a bit cliche, Ace. Even for you." It is true after all. "I'm the biggest threat out of all the contestants. Obviously. Who else would I say? My opponent tonight? The other five waiting to get their ass kicked by me? Come now, Ace."
Lunatic looks up from Ace and into the camera lens.
"That's right. Lunatic is the biggest threat in this tournament. No one else can contend with me, no one else will contend with me. I've been talking the talk, tonight I will walk the walk. Simple."
Ace opened his mouth to say something more but Lunatic didn't give him a chance to speak. He hopped off the crate and made his way off camera, leaving Ace standing there with a slightly displeased expression.

LUNATIC
Vs GLORIANA
LUNATIC
Vs GLORIANA
Jessica Stroup: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall and is the second matchup in the Monday night Brawl tournament. Introducing first from Miami Florida, standing at 6 feet 4 inches and weighing in at 225 pounds; LUNATIC!
Whatever retaliation by CFO blasts through the PA system and out comes Lunatic, he sprints his way down the ramp and slides into the ring; gets to his feet and then waits for his opponent.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent, from Blair, Nabraska, standing at 5 ft 11 inches and weighing in at 160 pounds, Gloriana!
Her ring music plays and she makes a high energy romp to the ring, tagging hands and hugging fans as she goes. Once at ringside she kisses a lucky fan on the cheek then slides into the ring and runs the ropes a few times to loosen up. From there she paces like a hungry lioness ready to pounce.
Aiello: What do you think about Lunatic, Jeremy
Piven: Well Joe, if I had something against Lunatics I wouldn’t have been able to survive sitting next to one for a decade now
DING DING DING
Both superstars are ready to go but the circle the ring, Lunatic encourages his opponent to come on the offensive but she seems to be hesitant so he puts a finger up telling her to wait a minute and then he, CONNECTS! CONNECTS! CONNECTS! Three right hands square to the face
Aiello: What the hell is this Lunatic doing?
Piven: He is beating himself up!
He punches himself till he falls and rests on the turnbuckle dazed and confused. Gloriana was more amazed than the crowd as she watched her opponent inflict self-harm but the moment he lands on the turnbuckle she sees an opening she has to seize and she takes it, she runs at him with a spear but Lunatic side steps and helps her shoulder first into the post. He giggles at himself and pulls his opponent from the post and immediately connects with an RKO; the disturbed Mind.
Aiello: My word Jeremy he is about to win the fight and it just started.
Piven: Game over Gloriana, I am so sorry it ended so quick

Kickout!
Aiello: How did she manage to kick out?
Piven: The EWC is a roster of resilient performers.
Lunatic gets to one knee and looks down at his opponent, he taps his head a little bit with his palm as if trying to figure out how his opponent did it. He helps her up and then Irish whips her to the ropes, but wait, She holds on and whips Lunatic so hard he flies over the top rope and crashes outside of the ring. Lunatic is quick to return to his feet but once he turns to the ring he is hit by a flying shoulder charge from Gloriana which knocks the wind out of him and tosses him to the foot of the ramp. Both superstars stay down
Aiello: That move by Gloriana was insane, remind me Jeremy, who is the lunatic out there.
Piven: At this point I see two people who will pull completely insane stunts to get the win and I love it
Aiello: By the way Jeremy, I know you will get a cake later but I brought a pre-cake cupcake
Piven: Awwn, for me? You shouldn’t have
Aiello: And I didn’t; this is for me Jeremy; damn it at least use your movie money to feed yourself.
The referee begins the count as the both struggle to their feet.

By the fifth count both competitors have returned to their feet and dead set on having a go at each other, but not enough time to continue their fight on the outside so they both slide into the ring in unison and get to their feet, a quick exchange of right hands followed but then Lunatic picks up the advantage and begins to ravage the face of Gloriana with lefts and rights. He then sends his opponent to the ropes and as she returns he lifts her up, SPINBUSTER! COUNTER! She countered and switches it into a DDT knocking some sense into her insane opponent. She goes for the pin.

Kickout!
Piven: What an amazing contest from two top superstars
Aiello: That’s why this is the flagship show of the EWC, we house the best of the best
Gloriana takes a moment on her knees to catch her breath before she returns to her feet and waits in the corner for Lunatic to get up, immediately he does she rushes at him and then dives with a flying headbutt and connects sending Lunatic crashing to the mat once more. The fans are loving the contest, and they want more and their wish is her command, she runs to the ropes behind and returns with a knee drop aiming for the chest but Lunatic rolls out of the way and she crashes on her knees and falls to the mat gripping them in pain. Despite the crash she always seemed to be the one to get to her feet first though Lunatic is half way up by the time she gets to her feet. She rushes the knee at his head which he escapes by snapping his head back, he grabs her by the hair from behind and sends her head into his knee. She staggers backwards dazed and he isn’t going to let up his advantage, he runs at her and connects with the Enziguiri.
Piven: What a contest
Aiello: You are telling me, I would never work this hard for a surprise
Lunatic walks around the ring like he had forgotten something, he taps his head as if trying to remember and then suddenly he puts a finger up “Eureka”. He grabs his fallen opponent she goes for a punch but he blocks that and hits a kick to the midsection and then from a grapple lifts her in the air. CONNECTS! INSANITY! Gloriana looks lifeless, he goes for the pin

Jessica Stroup: Here’s your winner and into the next round of the tournament, LUNATIC!
Aiello: Big win for Lunatic, his first in the EWC and what a big one it is
Piven: Yes it is Joe, he did well against Nurse Kingsley at his debut, and did even better last week, but this time he got the all important W. Now he gets to move onto the next round while Gloriana needs to figure out what went wrong here tonight. We'll be right back folks
BACKSTAGE
The feed cuts backstage where interviewer Ace Heart is once again ready to interview and get the scoop on the 12-man Brawl tournament. The camera pans out to reveal, “The Human Highlight Reel” Kenneth Williams, standing near with a look of confidence and calm energy in his face.
AH: Evening Ladies and Gentlemen! I’m Ace Heart back on giving you all the latest scoop in the EWC. Standing with me, I have none other than the man who will be facing a former EWC World Champion Mark Storm, “Yours Truly” Kenneth Williams. Kenneth, What does it mean for you to be in this tournament?
KW: Man! What can I say Ace? This means everythin’ to me and my career! A chance to prove my name in the very company I use to watch as a young boy. It’s just amazin’. 10 years ago I couldn’t even picture myself in this situation and now I’m in a tourny with a lot of recognizable names. It’s truly an honor and I won’t let the “HiiiPower” nation down.
AH: How do you plan to defeat Mark Storm here tonight?
KW: By simply doin’ what I normally do in any match. I treat every match like it’s the last one I’ll ever have and that alone gives me enough confidence to know that I’ll possibly have match of the night with Marky and also pick up the win. To keep it straightforward I must say that my resilience will be the reason I why shock the world and defeat “The Reckonin’ of Professional Wrestlin’”.
AH: How far do you realistically think you will go in this tournament?
KW: Realistically? Let’s look at the facts Ace. While it’s true that this tournament is hosting some of the best talent, none of that will matter. Resilience is the name of the game I playin’ and it will be lovely when I cause an upset and bounce back and win this whole damn thing. So yeah those are my thoughts on that.
AH: Who poses the greatest threat of the other 11?
KW: Definitely the man that I am facing tonight. Mark Storm is probably the most experienced competitor in this tournament. But this is a good thing. Once I prove to the world that I am, if not, better than Mark Storm, they will see that I will be a dominant force in this tournament.
AH: Any guesses on what the winner will get?
KW: Well Ace. I’m thinkin’ with Night of Champions around the corner, we might have a International title contendership. I’m pretty sure that’s the prize with Harlow goin’ for X’s strap. Whatever it is, it’s definitely gonna be worth all the bullshit.
Kenneth smirks as he hears his music being played over the speakers
BRAWL TOURNAMENT
TWELVE MEN AND WOMEN. THREE GRUELLING WEEKS. A SURPRISE PRIZE.
KENNETH WILLIAMS
Vs MARK STORM
KENNETH WILLIAMS
Vs MARK STORM
Jessica Stroup: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
[...3]
[..2]
[.1]
Jessica Stroup: Introducing first.. from Austin Texas, weighing in a two hundred and twenty five pounds..
The lights in the arena begin to dim as the countdown ends and the X-treme Tron springs into life with a shot of “The Human Highlight Reel” Kenneth Williams giving the camera a few playful winks.
Aiello: Undoubtedly one of the most talented highflyers we've seen here in Extreme Wrestling Corporation, it's just a shame that things haven't been going his way for Kenneth Williams but tonight, that could all change! I think he could do it Jer!
Piven: The kids got talent, I'll give him that.. and I do hope he can beat Storm tonight, because it'll be a great send off present from him to me after HE FAILED to win that Scars and Stripes match for the best brand this promotion has. Maybe then, I'll let that shit slide Joey.
The fans jump straight to their feet in cheer as "Shadowboxin" by the GZA & Method Man begins to play through the PA speakers. The familiar adlibs of Method Man accompanying the vinyl scratches of the classic "Shaolin vs. Lama" Kung-Fu movie echo throughout the arena as Kenneth Williams steps out onto the ramp.
Jessica Stroup: KENNETHH WILLIAMSS!
Fire and pyro began shooting out of the stage as Kenny stands at the ramp with a playful grin as he stands at a military rest with his head cocked to the side before taking off in a full sprint to the ring, making sure to slap hands of the fans on his way. He hops onto the outside of the turnbuckle before looking out into the crowd and delivering a vicious dab with a look of disgust on his face. He hops into the ring and prepares in his corner.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent..
The lights in the arena begin to dim and the EWC audience rise to their feet, as the nostalgic melody of "Paradise Circus" by Massive Attack begins to play through the PA speakers. Smoke begins to rise from the stage and the audience begin to applaud, as emerging from the clouded mist is the self proclaimed "reckoning of professional wrestling" - Mark Storm, who stands tall at the top of the entrance ramp. A smile is plastered on his face as he marvels at the scenery, embracing all the cheers as he closes his eyes and widens his arms before coming down the ramp.
Jessica Stroup: From New York, Brooklyn; weighing in a two hundred and twenty seven pounds.. He is the reckoning of professional wrestling.. ladies and gentlemen give it up for, MARRKKKK STORMMMMMM!
Standing by the edge of the ring, he lets out a triumphant roar, with the audience roaring back to him as he jumps onto the apron before he slingshots his way over the top rope.
Aiello: Storm is coming off what was perhaps his most impressive win to date since being here in Extreme Wrestling Corporation. A former EWC Champion and the current International champion, so the morale of Storm must be at an all time high and he's got to be wanting to keep on with that momentum. What an opportunity this is for Storm and for Kenneth Williams.
Piven: Something we've never doubted is that Storm is one heck of a competitor inside that four sided ring. Something that's always lingered in the air though is the question of whether he has what it takes to hang with the big dogs but he proved last week, that he has more than what it takes Joey!
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: Here we go! Kenneth Williams taking on Mark Storm!
Piven: This is going to be another instant classic Joey, I can taste it and it better be.
DING DING DING
The bell rings and for a moment the two men remain stationary, looking around the arena and embracing the applause from the audience, looking at one another and nodding heads before approaching the centre of the ring and shaking hands. The two men then back away from the centre and begin to circle each other, approaching the centre once more as the two prepare to lock up but Storm is hesitant, taking a step back and proceeding to circle the ring once more before meeting Kenneth in the middle again where the two lock horns. Jockeying in position, it's Storm who comes out with the early advantage as he forces Kenneth back into the ropes and he holds him there whilst the referee begins a count, slowly he begins to let go of him and as he does he looks as if he's going to strike him but gently pats him on the chest before demanding him to bring it as he backs away. Kenneth holds onto the ropes and smiles at Storm, nodding his head before looking at the audience who applaud the two men for their efforts.
Once again the two complete a circuit of the ring before meeting in the middle with Storm once again taking the advantage but Kenneth is quick to push Storm back into the ropes and launches him over to the opposite ropes. Storm bounces back and greets K with a massive shoulder barge before momentarily looking at the audience. Running to the ropes again he bounces back and has to leap over K before heading to the ropes once more, bouncing back but having to eat a drop kick by K, who performs the manoeuvre with impressive execution. Storm gets to his feet immediately and dusts himself off, looking at K and telling him to bring it harder. The two then run at each other and whilst Storm looks for a lariat K manages to amazingly leap over the arm of Storm in a rolling fashion, hitting the canvas kipping himself up before turning to block a strike attempt from Storm. Storm attempts another and K blocks it pushing him back to the ropes and performs an Irish whip, Storm returns with a huge lariat on K before walking around the ring for a few seconds a landing a perfect shooting star press. He then goes for the first cover of the contest.

Aiello: And a shoulder up from Kenneth Williams. These two are really testing each other out early on here tonight. It's fantastic to see mutual respect between the two men too, shaking hands at the beginning of this contest is almost a lost art in this profession.
Piven: They shook hands before but I know for a fact that things will get ugly, and both men will do anything for their name to be raised by the official at the end of the match. You can bet on that Joey. At the end of the day, only one man can emerge the victor.
A shoulder bursts up from Kenenth Williams and Storm is quick to get off of him, pulling him back to his feet and leading him over to the corner. Storm levels him into a straight position on the corner before beginning a series of kicks to the chest, one after the other with each hit being harder than the last. He then backs away from him, allowing him to stumble out of the corner and heads to the ropes, bounces back and hits K with a sling blade, performed to perfection. He rises to his feet and nods his head at K, who's on the ground in the corner holding onto his neck looking up at the demon that is Mark Storm, who soaks in the applause from the audience. K rises to his feet and once again the two circle the ring with K managing to get in behind Storm and lock him into a hammerlock. Storm is quick to reverse the move and lock K in a hammerlock, before tripping him up so that he's ground and continuing to lock him in the hold, swivelling his body around the back of K, not staying still so it makes it harder for K to rise to his feet.
Eventually he stops and gets to his feet with brings K with him locking him in a side headlock. He then proceed to elbow strikes to the back of the head. K falls to one knee and this is a trigger for Storm who runs to the ropes bounces back and is surprised to see a rejuvenated Kenneth Williams who greets him with a hurricanrana. Hitting the canvas hard Storm is back on his feet and K greets him with a single leg drop kick that forces Storm to stagger backwards into the ropes. K then rushes over to him and clotheslines him over the top rope. Storm lands on his feet on the outside however turns away from the ring and holds onto the barricade, obviously exhausted. This allows K to run to the opposite ropes before heading over to Storm's direction, somersaulting over the top rope and landing on Storm.
Aiello: And Kenneth Williams with an impressive somersault over the top rope onto Mark Storm! This kid's athleticism is insane!
Piven: It maybe but will it be enough to win this match? Sure you need athleticism, but it's a combination of traits that makes a competitor a warrior.
A smirk is upon the lips of K who looks around at the audience and nods his head before picking Storm up and rolling him into the ring before joining him. He then hooks the leg of Storm.

A kick out from Storm and he's already rolling over to the corner of the ring where he holds onto the bottom rope. K slowly rises to his feet and watches Storm gradually get up using the ropes. K then rushes towards him and connects with a corner splash before heading to the ropes bouncing back and performing a head scissors take down. Storm kips himself back up and turns K around, landing an impressive spinebuster that could break any man or woman's back into pieces. He then goes for a lateral press pin.

Aiello: And Storm there with a near fall, I thought he almost had him there after that spinebuster.
Piven: Kenneth Williams isn't going to let up easy Joey.
Bringing K back up to his feet Storm connects with a punch to the jaw that stuns K but he's able to stay on his feet and return the favor with a punch of his own. Storm then stumbles back a little but keeps composed and this time connects with a forearm shot to K, who then returns the favour to Storm. The two then engage in a series of exchanged shots featuring the forearms, knuckles and elbows before Storm lands a massive bicycle knee on K who stumbles further back into the ropes, bouncing off of them with some momentum and takes Storm down with a crossbody. The two are back on their feet and it's evident that the bicycle knee has done damage to K, who#s not bleeding from his nose. Storm takes K down with an arm drag and the two are back up after that with Storm connecting with another arm drag. They're back at it again but this time it's K who takes the advantage, managing to duck under a clothesline attempt before attempting to sweep Storm's legs from a grounded position but Storm jumps over. K then stands up straight and blocks a strike attempt from Storm before connecting with an enziguri kick that knocks Storm to the canvas. K then runs to the ropes and bounces back..
[REPLAY BOARD]
K hits his back on the canvas but is quick to get back up to his feet with Storm preparing for another hurricanrana but K manages to carthweel his way out of any damage being caused. Storm gets to his feet and eats a massive superkick from Storm who stumbles back into the ropes, coming off of them and hitting K with a superkick of his own, who stumbles back into the ropes, comes back and connects with a forearm smash with Storm heading over to the ropes. Storm bounces back and hits K with one hell of a bicycle knee but K stagger back, comes off of the ropes and Storm looks for a lariat but K ducks, Storm turns and K connects with a pele kick that has the fans rocking!
Aiello: What a pele kick from Kenneth Williams!
Piven: You've gotta be looking to finish him now kid!
Kenneth Williams brings Storm to his feet and is standing face to face with him, he hooks his hands around his neck and leaps up with his knee's up connecting with his finishing move known as Lights Out!
Aiello: LIGHTS OUT BY KENNETH WILLIAMS!

Jessica Stroup: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE WINNER OF THE MATCH... KENNETTH WILIAMMS!
Aiello: I am in absolute and utter shock here ladies and gentleman. Kenneth Williams just defeated Mark Storm. Mark Storm is out of the tournament. I ... I seriously ... oh my word. This is a major major upset
Piven: I don't know what to say. What a victory for Kenneth Williams. Mark Storm is in shock right now and it looks like Ken is too. Kenneth is moving on while Mark Storm ... I can't believe I'm saying this ... Mark Storm is going home empty handed. Folks ... we will be back after this. Wow.
Piven: I don't know what to say. What a victory for Kenneth Williams. Mark Storm is in shock right now and it looks like Ken is too. Kenneth is moving on while Mark Storm ... I can't believe I'm saying this ... Mark Storm is going home empty handed. Folks ... we will be back after this. Wow.
BACKSTAGE
Luca D'Amico from the Genovese Family has been given the task of dropping off a "message" for Axle before his match, to remind him that La Cosa Nostra is not to be trifled with or ridiculed publicly. A security guard stops him as he hastily tries to make his way in the locker room area.
EWC SECURITY GUARD: We aren't expecting any deliveries.
DELIVERY DRIVER: Oh, it's from President Mac, a prop or something for Axle to use in his match I guess?
EWC SECURITY GUARD: I'm gonna have to call it in, hold on.
DELIVERY DRIVER: Sure.
Luca leans over and smashes the security guard over the head with a billy club before he grabs a hold of his radio to get clearance. He slumps right over and falls onto a laundry basket that holds dirty towels.
LUCA DAMICO: Rain, winter, or shine- deliveries on time. Pew! Smells like you could use a shower, stinky!
Luca walks into the backstage area and finds Axle's green room and gets in unnoticed. He drops off a special package, opens it, and leaves it in plain view.
Luca then opens up a letter drafted by the Chin himself and leaves it for Axle to read before his match...
"You too will sleep with the fishes, like Gotti, Raslan, and any other rat who dares speak my name with such disrespect. You fouled up thinking you bested me without there being a proper retaliation. For all I know, you and the Sheikh had me set up all along. For that, you must pay. Say hello to your mother for me. -Vinny"
COMMERCIAL BREAK
BACKSTAGE
Cameras start rolling from black. Our scene takes us backstage in the media room where Ace Heart is sitting down getting his microphone pinned to his very tacky business suit. We can hear him ask for assistance after many failed attempts and that brings a young woman into the frame. After everything checks out. Lens begin to zoom onto the face of Ace Heart as he appears smiling openly in a friendly manner.
Ace Heart: Ladies and Gentleman, I have with me tonight one of the participants in the very special Brawl Tournament that was announced a few days earlier. She needs no introduction. Please welcome at this time, the former EWC United States Champion, Alexis Morrison. Alexis. Welcome to Monday Night Brawl.
As the last sentence is being said, the EWC Cameras pan over to a large pop from the crowd, as sitting on the opposite side of Ace Heart was Alexis Morrison. She smiles.
ALEXIS MORRISON “Thank you, I'm really excited to be here on this night.”
We switch back to Ace Heart. He nods to himself before reaching down to pull out the same questions he has been going over with everyone being featured inside this tournament. We see Alexis knowing what to expect waiting for this interview to fully begin. She waits patently with both arms in front.
Ace Heart: Right away, Alexis. You are being thrown into this special Brawl Tournament that has been put together by President Mac. Tell us, what does it mean for you to be apart of this special tournament?
ALEXIS MORRISON “Ever since I got in Extreme Wrestling Corporation I have been proving myself. Maybe a little bit more violently than others and I'm sorry for that. Being in this tournament is no different than proving myself when I had to compete in the King of the Cage tournament last year. No different than when I was a virtual nobody on Friday Night Rampage who started from the very bottom. I see this as an opportunity. A chance to say I'm not dead yet, I am here on Monday Night Brawl to prove this woman can hang with the best of them.”
He nods to himself.
Ace Heart: Everyone at home wants to know. How do you plan to defeat Axle Aomori here tonight? Do you have anything special you're hiding to unleash tonight when you've officially switched sides?
The Anti-Starlet unwraps her legs from crossing them. She takes a moment to herself. We can hear as Alexis Morrison blows through her nose. She pushes her hair back from that angelic face before leaning back. The Anti-Starlet of Professional Wrestling leans forward a bit.
ALEXIS MORRISON “Let's get something straight, first. Axle Aomori is a man who talks about living in the dangers of a corrupted, drugged ridden world. He has come out to the masses. He speaks like he knows who and what I am from reading about me from some little bits of information I've dropped over the past few months I have signed here. He believes that inside he knows me personally like a long last friend. Axle Aomori has never visited the west coast in any sharp or form. In fact, most of his attacks against me are weak and confusing. A four year old could do better than what he came up with to use against me. How do I defeat him? I use things he doesn't know.”
Heart doesn't stop. But the mustache wearing man decides that he was going right to the next question on his list for everyone involved in this special tournament. Ace Heart decides he was going to jump to another question. He looks straight at the former United States Champion.
Ace Heart: How far do you realistically think you will go in this tournament? There are a lot of great talent listed in this special Brawl Tournament tonight. A lot of men and women you never faced.
He waits as she takes a drink of fresh water from a bottle. She leans back adjusting herself in a attempt of getting comfortable in the chair. She looks down for a split second collecting her thoughts. She leveled them with Ace Heart. Looking at him with eyes that read veteran. She knew her own abilities in question to take it all the way to the final match of this thing. Alexis knew that she could make it to the finals.
ALEXIS MORRISON “Well, Ace, realistically speaking, I think I can go as far as my body and mind allows me. If I started measuring myself now, then I don't need to be apart of this company. It's that kind of limitation that brings a person down in this business. You always have to believe in yourself to go out there and be number one. If you're not in there to be that, then let me ask you this Ace. Why are you here in Extreme Wrestling Corporation?”
He continues. He starts to unbutton his jacket by picking himself a tad. He reads his notes that had been written by the interview from Extreme Wrestling Corporation. He takes a breath before speaking.
Ace Heart: Who poses the greatest threat of the other 11?
ALEXIS MORRISON “That's easy. Mark Storm. He's been to the top of Extreme Wrestling Corporation before. He knows how to be just as sadistic as I once was when I entered back last year. It wouldn't surprise me if he comes close to the finals. In truth though, anyone in this tournament could see themselves as a threat. Anyone of the other 11 competitors could actually be the new faces of fear within this company and push themselves to win. All they have to do is apply themselves and work harder than they ever had in their life.”
She said, every note that came from her lips had an extra kick to them as Alexis Morrison talked. You could tell that Morrison believed every word that came out. Alexis takes another drink from her water bottle. Her hair starts to sparkle from the room lighting hits the blonde hair.
Ace Heart: Alexis, final question: Are there any guesses on what the winner will be getting? What does the newest Brawl member believe will be the prize that everyone fights for tonight?
She has a point blank expression.
ALEXIS MORRISON “If I have to be a betting woman, if I had to guess, there's only one opportunity that I see anyone walking out of the MTS Centre in Winnipeg carrying with them. Why it's the EWC International Championship at Night of Champions. It's an opportunity to face the man myself, Tony Savage. Someone I look forward to meet.”
After saying this, Alexis Morrison stares at the cameras while it zooms. Giving the world a serious look at the new and the improved version of herself. She then flashes a single smile to the lens. The camera operator stays on this frame for a few more moments before taking us to another commercial.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
BACKSTAGE
Ace Heart: EWC Fans! Welcome at this time, Axle Aomori!
Axle: Let's get this over with quick please, Ace? I got a match to win.
Ace: What does it mean for you to be in this tournament?
Axle: It's simple. It means I'm one of the best in this business, that's always been obvious though. This tournament brings some of the best on BRAWL so my claim was just reassured, Ace.
Ace Heart: How do you plan to defeat Alexis Morrison here tonight?
Axle: Ace. Alexis claims she is from the streets. That she was street smart and survived in the streets. I will show her surviving tonight, Ace. She has no idea what surviving really is. Especially when you're only on the streets for a brief period of time.
Ace: How far do you realistically think you will go in this tournament.
Axle: Have you seen my performances lately, Ace? Yeah, sure I lost to Kinsley but I made that one hell of a match, and you want to ask me THAT question? It's obvious how far I can and WILL go. After tonight, when I beat Alexis, it's on to round two. Then, in round two, it'll be on to the finals. That easy.
Ace: Who poses the greatest threat of the other 11?
Axle: If I have to be honest. Mark Storm, Ace. He is the only one that can probably really keep up with me. He's been a World Champion, Ace. He almost beat Xplode at Scars and Stripes. Him and I, if we don't face one another before then, will be in the finals.
Ace: Any guesses on what the winner will get?
Axle: I really don't care what the winner gets, because the winner will be me, and that will be enough. It will show that I truly am better than the rest in the tournament and deserve a shot at Xplodes World Title.
Ace: Thank you Axle, good luck in your match.
Axle: One last thing, Ace. The guy I made tap out last week, Vinny is talking shit about me. Saying he will send some people to get me. Well let me say this and Vin, I hope you're listening. You send your guys to me, they'll be returning with broken legs and arms. It's not me who will be 'sleeping with the fishes'. You just remember that.
BRAWL TOURNAMENT
TWELVE MEN AND WOMEN. THREE GRUELLING WEEKS. A SURPRISE PRIZE.
AXLE AOMORI
Vs ALEXIS MORRISON
AXLE AOMORI
Vs ALEXIS MORRISON
Jessica Stroup: The following contest is scheduled for a one fall!
"Heathens" by Twenty One Pilots plays through the loudspeaker as the lights go out and you can barely see a figure with his head bowed as the first lines of the song are heard.
Jessica Stroup: Introducing first from Howe Indiana, weighing in a two hundred and ten pounds, The Arch Angel, AXLE AOMORI!
At :27 as the first drum beat sounds red and white fireworks shoot up and Axle is wearing his red Anarchy Jacket and throws his arms up making an A shape with his hands. He slowly walks down the ramp to a mixed reaction from the crowd.
Aiello: Axle Aomori has become one of the big time play as in such a short space of time. He's gotta be loving it! He's gotta be loving the fact that people are rooting for him to take this tournament home too!
Piven: I can't lie, I am a big Axle Aomori fan. Some of the thing that kid can do in the ring, you won't find anywhere else and I love that. He's unique, he's different, and I'll be very impressed if he's able to pick up a win against the former EWC United States Champion tonight.
There's Anarchy'16 signs and Axle signs that cheer him and jeer him. He stops at the end of the ramp and lets out a smirk and turns left towards the steps. He climbs up the steps and onto the turnbuckle where he throws his hands up once more before jumping down off of the turnbuckle and walking towards the opposite side of the ring where he leans up against the corner his arms outside of the ropes resting on the top.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent..
A low tone beat mixed with an electronic guitar sounds through the arena for a few seconds before going full force over the sound system. Cameras get a close up of the giant screen as the Anti-Starlet logo is presented in 3D to a roar within the EWC Universe. A video package plays a montage with clips of Alexis Morrison backstage and matches in the company. This all leads to a fading transition to the entrance way. Alexis walks out of smoke wearing her leather jacket, her blonde hair fell behind the woman, and she walks down the aisle.
Jessica Stroup: From Santa Monica California weighing in a one hundred and twenty five pounds, The Anti-Starlet, ALEXIS MORRISON!
She stops, looks at the ring for a moment, circles it, then immediately goes patting the steel steps showing her respect to those who passed on before walking up these steps and climbing into the ring. Alexis Morrison cuts straight toward her turnbuckle spot, takes off her jacket, and adjusts her finger-less gloves.
Aiello: This is what we've been waiting for! The debut of Alexis Morrison! Wow, I am so excited to see Alexis Morrison on Monday Night Brawl, competing for the flagship brand! This is awesome!
Piven: This is beyond awesome Joey, it's just a shame that this is my last night. I would've loved to commentate more matches with Alexis Morrison, but it is what it is, and I'm sure she's going to create some magical moments that will be talked about for a long time here on Monday Night Brawl!
DING DING DING
The bell rings and this way is underway with a bang as the two intensely move around the ring, circling each other before daring one another to meet in the centre. They both gradually get nearer and nearer and both stretch their arms out towards one another, with Axle quickly grabbing her by the arm and pulling her close, managing to lock her in a side headlock. Alexis is quick to react as she pushes Axle back into the ropes but isn't able to make him release the hold, he tightens it instead and brings her back to the centre of the ring, a smirk upon his lips. Alexis tries again to push him against the ropes to build some momentum but again, Axle manages to keep the hold locked in, a smug look on his face as he nods cockily. Alexis tries once more and this time she manages to get him off of her with Axle bouncing off of the opposite ropes and greeting Alexis with a european uppercut that sends Alexis to the canvas.
She's quick to get to her feet though however Axle corners her and begins his mission of onslaught, a variety of chops directed to the chest of Alexis, before changing the dynamics by targeting her legs, kicking her in the thighs. He takes a few steps back and runs towards her but Alexis rolls out of the way. She turns him around and performs a short arm clothesline of Axle, who hits the canvas hard and gets back up to his feet holding onto his throat, a look of surprise on his face. He runs towards her again but Alexis is one step ahead, managing to leap frog over him. He bounces off of the ropes and this time has to leap over her as she gets herself on the canvas in an attempt to startle him. He bounces off of the ropes once more and Alexis runs past him which startles Axle who turns around and Alexis delivers a single leg drop kick on the leg of Axle which forces him to fall onto one knee. She then runs to the ropes once more and performs a low drop kick to the face of Axle who's now lying on his back in the ring. She attempts a quick elbow but Axle manages to roll out of the way and quickly get to his feet, swinging his boot towards Alexis who then pins her back against the canvas to avoid collision. She kips herself back up to her feet and ducks a clothesline attempt from Axle, getting in behind him and dropping him with a toe hold before swiveling her body on his back, getting round to his front to lock him in a headlock. She brings him back up to his feet, with the headlock still intact and runs towards the ropes, leaping onto the second ropes and performing a springboard bulldog.
The two are back up on their feet in no time with Axle somehow managing to build momentum from taking that move. He runs towards her, screaming and looks to kick her in the gut but she catches his boot, he then manages to swing his other leg to perform an enziguri kick. Alexis staggers but remains on her feet somehow until Axle gets her in an inverted suplex position and performs the move!

And Alexis gets the shoulder up!
She rolls herself to the apron to rejuvenate whilst Axle bangs his fists against the canvas, frustrated that he hadn't done enough to end this one early. He gets to his feet and realizes that Alexis is slowly making her way back up onto her feet. He walks towards her but Alexis grabs him by the back of the neck and drops off of the apron, forcing Axle to collide with the top rope and he stumbles backwards, holding onto his throat. She then jumps back on the apron and prepares herself, he slowly turns around and she's flying off of the apron, leaping onto the top rope and performing a diving hurricanrana on Axle Aomori!
Aiello: What a move by Alexis Morrison!
Piven: This is what I'm talking about Joey! Alexis has got the wow factor, she's on a level that is unparalleled, she's able to fly with the best and brawl with the best!
The Arch Angel gets to his feet after the move but only for a moment before passing out again. Alexis then rallies the audience by throwing her arms up in the air, pleading them to up the cheering and they do so. She then turns to Axle Aomori who's by the corner and runs toward him but Axle manages to lift her up and over to the apron. He realizes that she is on the apron and catches her with a side kick to the leg that makes her stagger. He then drapes his arms over the top rope to grab her and suplex's back into the ring! Already he's back on his feet and hasn't stopped with his onslaught. Running to the ropes he bounces off of them and performs a senton on Alexis. He picks her up by her hair delivers a couple of knife edge chops, bringing her to the ropes, he Irish whips her to the opposite ropes, she bounces off of them and eats a spinning wheel kick from Axle Aomori, who gets to his feet and poses to the audience.

Aiello: What an impressive showing from Axle Aomori tonight.
Piven: I really do hope this kid excels when I'm gone. I'll still be watching, and I'm expecting big things from this kid.
Running his fingers through his hair he sighs and watches Alexis crawl towards the ropes. He then grabs her by her ankle and applies an ankle lock, locking her tightly and making sure she's back in the centre of the ring. Alexis tries to keep the screams in and tries to fight the pain, shaking her head side to side every time the official asks whether she wants the bout to finish. She then manages to crawl her way back over to the ropes, inches away but Axle drags her back to the middle of the ring, with a cheeky grin he locks the hold even tighter and shouts at her "quit already!", to the audience's annoyance who begin to boo him. But all of a sudden the boo's turn into claps, as the audience try to get behind Alexis Morrison with repeated claps and Alexis feeds off of their energy, crawling back over to the ropes and managing to get her hand on the bottom rope.
Axle can't believe what he's just witnessed and is infuriated but quickly manages to regain his composure. He picks Alexis up by her hair and Irish whips her to the ropes. She bounces back and kicks him up into a straightened position, she hits him with an elbow to the jaw, a kick to the thigh before running passed him, bouncing off of the ropes and managing to perform a massive bicycle kick on Axle Aomori who instantly hits the canvas, also known as 20 eyes.
Aiello: AND ALEXIS MORRISON HAS MANAGED TO TURN THIS ONE AROUND!
Piven: You've got this girl!
She feeds off of the energy of the audience and nods her head with a smile plastered on her face, signalling for Axle to get back up onto his feet. Axle looks groggy as he gets up, turns around and runs to Alexis, who ducks under his arm, locks him into an argentine backbreaker position before dropping him with an reverse STO, also known as FOREVER NIGHT!
Aiello: AND ALEXIS IS GOING FOR THE PIN!

DING DING DING
Jessica Stroup: And the winner of the match.. ALEXIS MORRISON!
Aiello: What a victory and BRAWL debut by Alexis Morrison! I'm in shock here. I thought Axle had this one in the bag. Maybe that letter from Vinny DID get to him after all. But Alexis put on a great show here tonight. What a match. Both of them. Wow.
Piven: Both Axle and Alexis had a great showing tonight, but Alexis had a little more in her, and if she plays her cards right, she can have a lot more in her back at my hotel room. But either way, she's off to round number two and Axle is sent packing, trying to figure out his next move and what he did wrong tonight. Which really, wasn't much. Folks, we'll be back with more amazing BRAWL after this
BACKSTAGE
Ace Heart: Ladies and gentlemen I am here with one of the Monday Night brawls new acquisitions Sheikh Raslan. Sheikh you are about to go into this tournament against a man you very much have a history against, but before we even get to that, what does it mean for you to be in this tournament.
Raslan: Absolutely nothing Ace, it doesn’t mean a damn thing, I mean I heard the rumors of a tournament and I assumed it would be the best of the best in the tournament and we would have to prove ourselves which I have done but then in comes Morrison from Rampage, without even a single prior fight and she just walks in, same as Titus Mark, he is debuting in the tournament, so as for what it means to me Ace; Absolutely nothing, but I will tell you this, it seems to be heading in the direction of gold and since I just happen to be in the river I would go with the flow.
Ace Heart: Well aren’t you an uptight fellow; next question, how do you plan to defeat Vinny Gigante in this match?
Raslan: I think half of the work is already done, I’m in his head now, after what happened last week I know he is unstable and itching to get his hands on me; and I will use his mindset to my advantage Ace.
Ace Heart: How far do you realistically think you will go in this tournament?
Raslan: I don’t care, at least not now, I am facing Vinny, I don’t think you understand how much I want to tear this man apart. If I was given the option of the tournament or beating the living daylights out of Mr. Chin, I’d take the Chin 1 out of 10 times, and the other 9 times I’d choose to break other bones in his body.
Ace Heart: Who poses the greatest threat of the other 11?
Raslan: Out of the 12 its Raslan
Ace Heart: I said the other…
Raslan: I heard you, and I said Raslan is the main threat of the twelve, next question please.
Ace Heart: Any guesses on what the winner will get?
Raslan: Probably a whole lot of beating from a lot of people before he gets to that point. I’ve already said I expect there to be gold at the end of the tunnel; in my case I would get to stimulate the pain receptors of a number of superstars, this should be fun Ace.
Raslan hears his music starting to play and walks off. Ace Heart runs down the hall and manages to catch up with Vinny the Chin and fellow family capo Luca D'Amico backstage before his match with the Sheikh. The Family has just visited Axle backstage and shared some wisdom with him. Vinny's demeanor is one of pure evil, as he's in the midst of executing some maneuvers that will define his career at EWC. As always, Vinny has a well thought out plan underway.
ACE HEART: We're now backstage live with a very special guest, Vinny Gigante. Can't forget about Luca either. Hi guys! Vinny's not one to give us commentators many interviews so this is a treat indeed. Vinny, after that vicious attack on your leg by your rival last week, and given it was re-injured at the hands of Axle with the sharpshooter right afterwards- how far do you realistically think you can get in this tournament?
CHIN: You know, that's the 'ting with you guys. Always want an interview, never wanna be nice and show a little respect. To hell wit' you'se guys. You don't even have the decency to call me Godfather.
FUHGETABOUTIT...
Ace is a bit taken aback from the Chin's response. Aware of his involvement with the underworld, he decides to show a sign of respect, but manages to bury it with excuses about his approach.
ACE HEART: Vinny, I mean, ehem- "Godfather", I meant no disrespect. Really, inquiring minds out there want to know how you're feeling about this, it's my job to ask the hard questions. You know what I mean, right? Give me a break here...
CHIN: Oh? You need a break? Luca, he says he needs a break, you 'think we can accommodate?
LUCA: Can we boss? Please?
CHIN: Well, in that case, yeah, I know what you mean, little man. Listen, I'll let you off the hook this time cuz you're a good egg, but don't buck up to me. I know you're sorry. Give me a little space. Here's the deal, Ace. I'm going to go out here and finish what I started last time I faced this chump, and then, I'll do the same 'ting to whatever farmer these hicks throw at me next. It's open season on all fugazis.
Ace appears confused by the Chin's choice of words.
ACE HEART: Fugazi?
CHIN: Yeah, fugazis. You know, "fake ones". The frauds and the phonies right here in the EWC. There's more fugazi's right here than at a sand-jockey's jewelry store up in Harlem somewhere.
Trying to avoid furthering the stereotypes on live television, Ace changes the subject back to Vinny's injury.
ACE HEART: Vinny....what about the leg though? Seriously.
CHIN: The other half of it was stuck in Axle's ass. My boys went to go get it out earlier and now I'm going to go beat the Sheikh over the head with it.
ACE HEART: And there you have it ladies and gentlemen, a very motivated and angry Vinny Gigante. Let's pick up the action right now. It's time to get it on!
Vinny and Luca disperse as his music comes on over the loudspeakers.
BRAWL TOURNAMENT
TWELVE MEN AND WOMEN. THREE GRUELLING WEEKS. A SURPRISE PRIZE.
SHEIKH RASLAN
Vs VINNY GIGANTE
SHEIKH RASLAN
Vs VINNY GIGANTE
Aiello: What a show we've had so far. This is going to be a good one too, Jeremy. Vinny Gigante against Sheikh Raslan in the BRAWL tournament. We just heard from both Raslan and Vinny backstage just now and it will be interesting to see how this plays out.
Piven: I agree, Joe. If it wasn't enough that these two have some bad blood towards each other, they have extra motivation from the fact that this is the first round of a tournament.
Cross My Heart by Skepta blasts through the speakers and the camera pans around the arena capturing the faces of fans around the arena with nothing but disgust in their faces for the man who comes with the theme. The cameras finally rest on the entrance where Sheikh Raslan finally makes his appearance into a stage of white smoke which envelopes his feet, he is in an all white attire, dishdasha and headscarf.
Jessica Stroup: The next match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Beverly Hills, California and weighing in at 190 pounds....Sheikh Raslannn
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.
Piven: This man last week seemingly cost his opponent his match by attacking him.
Aiello: Speak of the devil, here he is coming out now.
New York, New York by Frank Sinatra hits the PA system as Vinny Gigante makes his way out from the back.
Jessica Stroup: Making his way down the ring, from Lower Manhattan, New York. Weighing in at 258 pounds...Vinny “The Chin” GIGANTEEEE
He slowly walks down the ramp then proceeds to slide into the ring.
Piven: Vinny looks a lot healthier this week, Joe.
Aiello: Yeah, he wasn't attacked before the match either, Jer.
DING! DING! DING!
Ref Justin Daniels calls for the bell as Vinny and Sheikh run in at one another and immediately start exchanging blows, forgoing any kind of technical wrestling. Vinny, being the stronger of the two gains the advantage. He continues his relentless punching to Sheikhs head backing him up into the corner. As Sheikhs back its the corner, Vinny pulls back and hits a large hook to the side of Raslans head. Vinny grabs the arm of Sheikh and throws him viciously across the ring, Sheikh hits the turnbuckle then bounces off of it and lands face first on to the canvas. Chin lets out a smirk as he walks over towards Raslan. He picks Raslan up and sends more punches to his head backing him up to the corner once more where he starts to whip him across the ring once more but Raslan reverses this one and sends Vinny across the ring, Vinny hits the turnbuckle and Raslan follows, hitting him with a splash. Raslan walks out from the corner, grabs Vinnys arm and whips him across the ring again. Raslan grabs at his lower back before running over towards Vinny as Raslan starts to jump for a splash again he is met from a boot by The Chin followed up by a huge clothesline sending Raslan to the mat hard causing him to lie prone on his back. Vinny, traveling out his comfort zone sees a downed Raslan and climbs up on to the turnbuckle looking around at the crowd.
Piven: What the hell is Vinny doing here? He isn't known for being a high risk guy!
Aiello: This could cost him the match, Jer...
Vinny jumps off of the turnbuckle he stretches out and lands a big splash off of the top turnbuckle on to Raslan! Vinny immediately grabs his stomach and crawls over to Raslan, he hooks his outer leg as he goes for the pin. Ref Justin Daniels drops down to the mat to start the count.
ONE!
TWO.
KICKOUT!
Piven: NO! Not three just yet.
Vinny gets up quick and looks at the ref walking towards him. The ref points at his shirt. Vinny just throws both his hands up and just shrugs what the ref is saying off. Meanwhile, Sheikh has gotten himself up to one knee. As Gigante turns around, Raslan runs at Vin and hits him with a huge clothesline knocking him down while Raslan falls down as well after everything he has taken on so far. Sheikh grabs the middle rope and pulls himself to a sitting position while Vinny is still laying prone his arms and legs spread out. Sheikh pulls himself up to a standing position. Sheikh backs up and waits for Vinny to sit up, as he slowly does Sheikh runs at Vinny and hits him with a sharp knee to the face! Sheikh backs up throwing his arms up after the knee to the chin. He is met with some cheers but mostly boos. Sheikh walks over to Vinny and grabs his right arm and right leg, he uses all of his strength to pull Vinny over to the middle of the ring where he drops down and hooks Vinnys near leg for a cover.
Piven: That was a vicious knee and now he's going for a pin. Though that showboating cost him I think, Joe.
ONE!
Aiello:He should have taken advantage immediately, Jeremy.
T...KICKOUT!
Vinny throws Raslan off of him, sending him over towards the turnbuckle.
Piven: See...way too much time wasted. He didn't even get a two!
Vinny gets up after throwing Sheikh off of him, Sheikh who has also gotten up runs at Vinny who jumps up and hits him with a Lou Thesz Press! After the press, Vinny starts sending rights and lefts to the head of Sheikh. He pounds him with three rights and three lefts before rolling off of him. Not wanting to stop the assault however, he picks his royalty up and throws him across the ropes. As Raslan hits the rope, he rebounds where Vinny is waiting. Vinny wraps his arms around Sheikh, lifts him up and then twists hitting a vicious Double A style spinebuster rattling the spine of Sheikh along with the whole ring. Vinny pops up after hitting the spinebuster and throws his arms out playing to the crowd. He, unlike Sheikh is met by all loud boos!! Vinny takes the boos in as he looks at Sheikh who is still laying flat on the mat. Vinny walks over to Raslan and stomps on his right knee. Vinny drops down, slides out of the ring and grabs the leg of Raslan. He pulls Raslan over and throws his right knee against the ring post wrapping it around it! Raslan lets out a loud scream and before he can pull his leg back, Vinny grabs it and does it again as he does he yells at Raslan. Doesn't feel too good does it?!
Piven: Looks like Vinny is getting some payback from that attack last week.
Aiello: It's a smart thing to do, Jer. Eliminates some of the speed advantage Raslan has.
Vinny slides back in the ring as Raslan grabs at his leg. Vinny lifts Raslan up, as he does so he looks at Raslans servant letting out a grin. Raslans servant jumps up onto the apron yelling at Vinny as he does Sheikh gives a low blow to Vinny who drops immediately. Sheikh hobbles over to the opposite side of the ring as he tries to rub some feeling back into his leg. Sheikh runs at Vinny who has gotten up on to all fours and hits Vinny with a boot to his gut with his left leg. Vinny immediately grabs at his gut but Sheikh picks him up and drags him over to the middle of the ring where he sends a boot to the gut. He gets Vinny in a front face lock then immediately drops him with a DDT! Vinny rolls over onto his back and Sheikh slowly gets up, still limping a little while grabbing at his leg. Sheikh walks over to the nearest turnbuckle to Vinny. He steps outside onto the apron then climbs up on to the turnbuckle. Sheikh looks around, jumps off of the turnbuckle and hits a big elbow drop straight into the heart of Vinny as he immediately grabs his chest! Sheikh rolls over onto his back after he hits the elbow drop.
Piven: What an elbow drop from Sheikh! He needs to capitalize here!
Aiello: They really are pulling out all of the stops here! They both want this win badly.
Sheikh slowly makes his way over to Vinny who is still lying motionless on the mat and throws an arm over him going for a cover.
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
Aiello: Only a two!!
Piven: If he would've capitalized sooner I think he could have gotten a three count, Joe.
Aiello: I don't know Jeremy. It's possible with how big that elbow drop was.
Vinny rolls over on to his chest preventing the chance for another cover. He slowly pushes himself up as Raslan also starts to get up. Vinny who has slowly recovered runs at Raslan who has gotten up to one knee and hits him with a shoulder block knocking him down hard! Raslan bounces off the mat and gets back up. This time he is met by a clothesline from Vinny, Raslan pops up again, this time he is met by a big dropkick sending him hard into the mat again! Vinny gets up and gets on top of Raslan going for a pin!
Piven: Vinny going for the win!
ONE!
Aiello: Vinny can get the win here. He may have done enough!
TWO!
TH...KICKOUT!!
Piven: What a kickout! That had to be on instinct alone. That's all it could have been, Joe.
Aiello: Exactly Jeremy. This is a great match so far.
Vinny looks up at the ref as he slaps the mat. Not believing that he hasn't been able to pin Raslan yet. Vinny picks Raslan up and looks at him, he kicks him, then slaps him, and grabs both of Raslans arms and drops down hitting Street Justice and The Sit Down! Raslan immediately goes for the pin again, hooking both legs.
Piven: This has to be it, easily.
ONE!
Aiello: I would think so, Piven.
TWO!
TH...Raslan grabs the middle rope, breaking the pin up!
Vinny looks at the ref again and then looks at Raslan. His face starts to turn red, not believing what he is seeing. Vinny picks Raslan up but is met by a hard dropkick sending Vinny across the mat! Raslan slowly gets up holding his head. He looks at Vinny who is slowly getting up after the dropkick as well. Raslan runs at Vinny hitting Vinny with a spear, connecting with The Rose Gold!
Piven: The Rose Gold! This has got to be it!
Aiello: This easily has to be it, that was vicious!
Raslan after hitting it rolls onto his back, lying flat on the mat while Vinny has rolled onto his stomach while grasping at it. Raslan slowly crawls over to Vinny who has rolled on to his back, and throws an arm over him as the ref drops down to count.
ONE!
TWO!
THRE...Vinny gets his free shoulder up not exactly kicking out! Raslan rolls over on to his back looking up with a stunned look on his face, not being able to believe this match is still going. He gets up slowly then picks Vinny up as well. Vinny sends forearms to the head of Raslan backing him up then runs at him and goes for a clothesline but he rolls out of the way and Vinny hits the ref, knocking him down as he rolls towards the turnbuckle. The Chin looks down at the ref then turns around where Raslan has started to run at him. Vinny stops Raslan in his tracks as he knocks Raslan down hard with a hard clothesline! Vinny lets out a smirk. Vinny lifts up the apron and grabs his cane that he uses and slides in. As he does, Raslans servant runs into the ring where he gets introduced to Vinnys cane as he gets hit hard on the head! Vinny focuses his attention back on Raslan who has gotten up to one knee, as he sees Vinny turn around he rushes at Vinny again who hits him with the cane across the chest. Raslan pops up and he is met by the cane against the head again, this time the cane busts Raslan open. Vinny throws the cane away and pulls out brass knuckles as he slides him on his right hand. Vinny picks Raslan up, throws him against the ropes and on the return Vinny hits him hard with the Brass Knuckles straight to the temple! Raslan immediately drops down from the punch. Vinny walks over to the ref and lifts him up with one hand and throws him over towards Raslan. Vinny immediately goes for the pin as the ref counts.
Piven: Vinny is going to steal one her e!
ONE!
Aiello: Not like this! Come on!
TWO!
THREE!!
DING DING DING
Vinny pops up holding his stomach as he does so
Jessica Stroup: Your winner by Pinfall....Vinny “The Chin” GIGANTEEEE!!
Piven: That was a great match, but Vinny stole one there. Vinny will be moving onto the next round in this mystery tournament, while Raslan will be left very bitter and probably angry at this result
Aiello: I agree, Jeremy. This rivalry isn't over. We'll be right back folks
BACKSTAGE
The fans cheer loudly as we see Ace Heart, standing outside the locker room door of Ashton Drake. Stepping out of the locker room, Drake looks surprised as Heart smiles. The fans begin to scream even louder, causing Drake to smirk and shift his posture. Heart raises a microphone and speaks:
Heart: What does it mean for you to be in this tournament?
Drake: What does it mean for me? Well that's an easy one there, pal. It means EVERYTHING to me. Each week, the opposition gets more tough, but rest assured, I will morph each time into the perfect machine.
Heart: How do you plan to defeat Louise here tonight?
Drake: Oh man, that's a loaded question. I plan on defeating Emma... by any means necessary. She is a tough nut to crack, but that's just it right there. Emma Louise will tap out, and I will move on in this tournament. It has to happen.
Heart: How far do you realistically think you will go in this tournament?
Drake: I will win this tournament. There is no half way.
Heart: Who poses the greatest threat of the other 11?
Drake: Me. I am the biggest threat to myself out there. Look, I may not have the experience that some of the others do around here, but don't sell me short. These people are here to witness history. (The fans begin to cheer) They know real talent when they see it, and that is why they have chosen to get behind me. I am the future of this company. Failure is not an option... not for the fans... and not for me.
Heart: Any guesses on what the winner will get?
Drake: Hopefully a pay check. Now if you will excuse me, I have to go make history. Don't blink. This is going to be over quick.
As Drake leaves we see Emma Louise on her way to the ring. Ace Heart trails after her.
Ace: "Emma! Emma!"
Hearing him, Emma stops and turns to see Ace.
Ace: "Just a couple of quick questions before you head to the ring."
Emma "Sure Ace, bring it on."
Ace "I just spoke with Drake, and he's very confident in his match with you tonight and his odds in the tournament. I'm sure you want to win this tournament but is there any realistic expectation in terms of how far you'll go in the tournament?
Emma "Realistically? If I didn't think I could win neither I nor EWC would have entered me into it. If I can't do that, I'm wanting to get to whatever classes as a semi final. I'm not going to stand here and tell you how I'm the best and all the others are pretenders but I'd like to get to the semis"
Ace "There's a lot of mystery surrounding the winner's prize. What's your prediction on what it is?"
Emma "Worse case scenario, it brings in ratings and good matches. All I can say for certain is be it a trophy, a title belt, money or a magic briefcase it is going to be something really good that makes the twelve of us want to go through it. The fact that I could benefit from money, briefcases and title belts means I'm going to fight in this tournament with all I have."
Ace "Emma, thank you for taking the time to talk to us, good luck in your match. Back to you Joe"
BRAWL TOURNAMENT

Vs EMMA LOUISE
ASHTON DRAKE
Vs EMMA LOUISE
Aiello: Thanks Ace! What a terrific show we have had tonight; Jeremy you couldn’t have hoped for a better send off, the four hundred and sixtieth show of Brawl has been an absolute belter.
Piven: Joe, this is the best birthday ever. I had no idea I had touched so many superstars, this is my best birthday ever.
Aiello: Touched them? I will let that one slide just because its your day man. Anyways, any second now we will see Ashton Drake walk down that ramp, he is about to face off against against Emma Louise. Drake sure sounded confident in that interview that he wont just win tonight, but win the whole tournament
Piven: It's good to see him motivated and hungry Joe. Emma seems equally as confident, but there can only be one winner. And what a match up we are about to witness, both these superstars are coming into this tournament in terrific form, neither have lost since we started our tour of Canada.
Aiello: Drake is EWC’s new golden boy, he has the fans eating out of his palm but tonight will arguably be his toughest fight yet.
Explosions rocket from the stage, catching the fans off guard as "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)" by Journey. begins to play! Stepping into view, Ashton Drake runs to the end of the stage and crouches, looking out into the sea of fans. There is a sarcastic smile on his face, as he shakes his head, overwhelmed by the fans around him!
Jessica Stroup: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is the sixth match in the Brawl tournament, introducing first Hailing from Brooklyn, NEW YORK! Please welcome... ASHTON DRAKE!!!
Nodding his head, Ashton hops up to his feet and cranks his arm. He then heads down the rampway and runs towards the ring as the fans cheer him on. His dark pupils stare at the ring as the arena explodes around him. Arriving at ringside, Ashton hops up to the ring apron and remains in place.. looking out at the fans around him.
Aiello: Ashton looks ready to go people; he will be looking to cement his place in the next phase of this tournament.
Piven: It won’t be easy Joe, Emma Louise won’t be going down without a fight.
Nodding his head once again, Ashton enters the ring and slowly struts around, his arms held out as he soaks up the fans' responses. His theme song slowly fades out as Ashton ascends a turnbuckle, finding a seat on the top pad. The fans continue to cheer as the theme song comes to an end.
"This Little Girl" by Cady Groves plays and Emma steps through the curtain.
Jessica Stroup: And his opponent standing at 5ft 6 inches, fighting out of New York, EMMA LOUISE!
Blows a kiss to the crowd a la Maria and then walks, half dancing to the ring where she slips feet first through the ropes like an envelope before laying suggestively over the top rope.
Aiello: And we are off guys, we are in for a treat.
DING!!! DING!!! DING!!!
Both superstars waste no time and lock into a grapple which Ashton quickly gains the advantage forcing Emma to the ropes behind her, he unhooks his right hand from the grapple and delivers a punch square to the face of Louise, wasting no time he in sending her to the opposite ropes with an Irish whip, as she returns he delivers a kick to the mid-section.
Aiello: OH MY GOD! It’s a minute into the fight and…And Drake is going for it.
Piven: EMMA GET OUT OF THE WAY!
Ashton Drake connects with the Death Note DDT! On Emma Louise; Ashton goes for the pin.

Emma is able to kick out but lies flat on the mat; Drake is unable to believe what just happened, he pulls his opponent closer to the turnbuckle and then mounts the top, he goes for a flying elbow, CONNECTS!! With the Mat; Emma is able to roll out of the way just in time. Ashton holds on to his elbow in a seated position and Emma rushes at him with a deafening kick to the chest. She holds on to the ropes and begins to stomp away at the chest of Ashton Drake. With little hesitation she sprints up the turnbuckle hoping to succeed where Drake failed. A Moonsault off the top turnbuckle and CONNECTS! She goes straight for the pin.
Aiello: This is it boys, lights out for Ashton Drake
Piven: I think so too Joe

Piven: Happy Birthday to me, this is so exciting, I can’t guess where this matchup is going.
Aiello: I agree, momentum continues to shift from one to the other.
Emma Louise gets to her feet and brings her opponent to his, she forces him to the ropes and begins to offload a fury of punches, she holds for one more lethal clothesline and connects which sends Drake over the top rope but he isn’t going alone, he grabs Emma by the midsection as he crashes out he hits a Belly to belly suplex onto the floor, both superstars lie lifeless on the outside of the ring.
Aiello: What a move by Ashton Drake! They both look down for the count.

Both superstars get to their feet at about the 7 count, they begin to dispatch punches to the face of each other, trying to slow the other down from getting into the ring but by the 9th count it becomes apparent they either both get in the ring or both lose out so they both slide into the ring in unison. Once in there Ashton is the first to his feet and runs at Emma and hits the running neckbreaker which he connects. He takes a moment to play to the crowd who are enjoying every moment of the match.
DRAKE!! DRAKE!! DRAKE!!
He turns around and Emma Louise is already on her feet, she hits him with a simple slap which makes him question the moment for a minute before returning one of his own which is even harder than that which was delivered to him, it sends Emma three steps backwards. Enraged by that she launches at him with a right hand which he is able to grab, he twists the arm and forces her to the ground and immediately locks the triangle choke hold.
Aiello: Oh my word, how the hell did he do that!
Piven: One minute she was going for the punch, the next minute she is begging for her life on the mat. This has to be it.
Emma Louise continues to fight to get out of the hold but Drake tightens his grip and she taps out.
DING DING DING
Jessica Sprout: Heres your winner by Submission, ASHTON DRAKE!
Aiello: Jeremy, I know you love this kid, he has continued his tremendous form in the EWC, still undefeated, who can stop this man.
Piven: Its matches like this Joe, makes me want to cancel on the movie and watch where this kid goes from here.
Aiello: There is this thing called cable Jeremy, maybe you have heard of it. I don’t want to explain this to you, just google it.
Piven: What’s a google? *smirks* Ashton is off to round two! We will be right back with MORE BRAWL
BACKSTAGE
We cut to the backstage area, where interviewer Ace Heart is waiting. The camera pans to the side, revealing that his subject is... Harlow Kinsley.
Ace Heart: With me backstage is X-Division Champion Nurse Harlow Kinsley. Harlow, tonight you have Tony Savage in the Main Event after having last week off. How do you plan to match up against Tony and how does Xplode being ringside as a Commentator play into this match?
Harlow stares off into space for a moment--it almost looks like she isn't going to answer. Ace actually jumps a little when the nurse suddenly jerks toward him, speaking loudly.
Nurse Kinsley: What kind of question is that, Ace? I plan on matching up against Tony Savage the same way I face anyone. Axle Aomori, Mark Storm, Jay Cee... name them. Name them all, Ace, there's not a person on this roster past or present that's had the better of me. Jaden gave dear, sweet Anthony some sappy pep talk back in May, some weak garbage about being the leader of the pack. Let's be honest--it's X, so it was probably something he made up on the car ride over--but if there was even a hint, even an ounce of sincerity in that little butt-patting session...
Kinsley pauses, breathing in deep and rearing her head back.
Nurse Kinsley: Boy, howdy, will I ever enjoy giving our Undisputed Champion a front row seat to my dissection of Tony Savage. I want to hold Uncle T-Bird's lungs in my hands, splash his insides across the commentary table like it's Sea World! You wanted to book a front row seat to the show, Jaden, I'll give you exactly what you came for!
BY THE TIME I'M DONE
HALF YOUR COMMENTARY IS GOING TO BE
V O M I T I N G
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!
Harlow rushes the camera, gloved hands clasping the lens. Ace Heart can be seen behind her, clearly panicking, signalling for someone to get in there and settle things down.
Ace Heart: Can we please get someone--
Nurse Kinsley: IT'LL BE A FANTASTIC PREVIEW, JADEN
A LIVE DEMONSTRATION OF THE AWFULNESS
I'VE BEEN SAVING FOR YOU
ALL FOR YOU!
THANK GOD EVERYONE YOU LOVE IS ABANDONING YOU,
SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE ACTUALLY MOURNED YOU ONCE
Ace Heart: At least cut her mic, for goodness sake!
Nurse Kinsley: I'LL BE SURE TO BURY YOU NEXT TO YOUR--
There's a brief switch to static, the sound of a microphone popping, and then we cut away to ringside

WITH SPECIAL GUEST COMMENTATOR: XPLODE
We return from commercial break and Jeremy Piven is standing alone in the middle of the ring. A standing ovation ensues as he races around the ring embracing the fans for one last time
Piven: Ladies and Gentleman, it has been a true honor to have worked for the EWC these last 10 years, and especially for BRAWL. This has been the most rewarding experience of my career, and I look forward to returning many upon many times in the future.
Seeing all those videos tonight, and hearing the chants from you fans ... I wasn't expecting this kind of a send off at all. I have so much respect for Mac, the EWC and all of you fans. I love you all so much, and it pains me to leave you all.
But for now, and for the last time... on behalf of Joe Aiello and myself, thank you for watching and good night!
Jeremy stands in the middle of the ring .... his giant grin mixes with a steady flow of tears. As the show fades Mark Storm, Derek Wellings, Axle Aomori, Titus Marks, Xplode, Griffin Hawkins, Alexis Morrison, Ruthann Park Hunter, Corey Smith, Emma Louise, Shelley Silver, JTC, Latoya Hixx, Bob Loblaw, Nurse Kinsley, Shadow Man, President Mac, and Joe Aiello all come out to the ramp and shake hands/hug Jeremy as he leaves for one last timeCHAMPION Vs CHAMPION
NO DQ
NURSE KINSLEY
Vs TONY SAVAGE
WITH SPECIAL GUEST COMMENTATOR: XPLODE
Ailleo: Well Kinsley appears to be heated backstage and right before her match too ... That's right folks, we are now onto the biggest match of the night..... and after it all over Jeremy this will be the last match you will be calling for the night.
Piven: I want to thank everyone for their support and great to see that many of the wrestlers and fans truly will miss me. I had a blast here at EWC but like they say when it time to moved on. You have to move on. I am going to miss you too Joe. Even though at times you were a bit of a pain.
Ailleo: If you say so and it eas great working with you and I wonder who will be your replacement but let get the main event started...
That when “The Enemy” by Godsmack begins to play! The crowd stands up to their feet as the arena lights fade to a crimson red! The arena starts to shake due to the responses from the fans as Jessica Stroup raises a microphone to her lips:
Jessica Stroup: Please welcome, the Undisputed EWC World Champion... the Destroyer of Worlds.. XPLODE!!!
The crowd continues to shout loudly as a fog machine covers the entrance. Flames erupt from each side of the stage. Stepping out into view, Xplode looks out at the fans with a smirk on his face. The champion wearing an expensive suit with the EWC Undisputed Title over his right shoulder.
As he was waiting that when Ruthless Aggression came out next as the crowd goes wild. She was wearing a pair of blue jeans with a Xplode shirt on with her hair coming down in curls. She walks right up next to him as they both start walking down the ramp together.
Piven: I didn't expect this!!!!!!
Xplode and Ruthann both together walked over to the ringside as Ruthann gives Priven a hug. She placed a soft kiss on his cheek as he just smirks as she took a seat. Xplode gives Priven a man hug as he shook hands with both of them. Ruthless took the title from off his shoulder as she placed it upon the table in front of them all as the camera zoom on it.
Piven: Don't that title looked pretty.
Xplode: Yes it does and it going to stay right where it belong with me.
Ailleo: Do you believe Nurse Kinsley have what it takes to beat you? Those were some interesting comments she just made
Xplode: There is a reason as to why I am the champion. Nurse Kinsley might have everyone else believing she is the one that will bring down the King. She will realize once she steps inside of the ring with me. She is nothing just like Mark Storm, Luke Wolfe and many others who step in my path. She can yell, scream and stomp her feet like a little kid in a line at toys r us trying to get her way, but like everyone else before her, she will fail.
Ruthless Aggression: Nurse is a woman that loved to bring pain to many of the guys she faced inside of the ring. Tonight she will be up against a young man who in a sense know what pain is and he knows how to take it. He doesn't only just take but also give it back. What Tony do to her tonight will be just child play in my book compare to what X will and can do to her at The Night of Champions. She believes she knows how to dish it. She will see she met her match but someone who just much better than her in the game of pain.
Jessica Stroup: The following contest is CHAMPION Vs CHAMPION NO DQ match....
"Easy Rider" by Action Bronson begin playing as the crowd starts to cheer.
No pyro, no fancy light show. Just the roar of a Harley Davidson Fat Boy tuned to perfection, which Tony revs up before he cruises down the entrance ramp.
Jessica Stroup: Now making his way into the ring, from Atlantic City, N.J., via Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in at 245 lbs....EWC's official bail bondsman....The Atlanta Falcon...... The EWC International ... Champion....... TONY SAVAGE!
Tony stops the bike next to the announcers table, revving the engine to the delight of fans nearby, and to the chagrin of that piece of shit Piven and his eardrums.
Piven: I HATE WHEN IT DOES THAT! I won't miss that for sure!
He parks the bike, EWC's security crew takes temporary custody of Tony's weapons and search him. After they finish their search on him he walked over to Piven. Piven eyes him closely as he stood up as Tony just smirks over at him as he gives him a hug. Piven just smirks as Tony glares a bit over at X and Ruthless.
Tony smirks as he looks down at the EWC Undisputed title as X watches him closely.
Tony: If Nurse doesn't beat your ass... .I will be next... I am coming for you.
X: Bring it, kid.
Tony jumps into the ring still in street clothes, cracking his knuckles and ready to fight.
Ailleo: Seems like everyone wants some of you.
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.
Jessica Stroup: Now making her way into the ring, from Bloody Corners, Ohio, weighing in at 130 lbs... Intubator of Violence.......... The EWC X Divison ... Champion....... NURSE KINSLEY!
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.
Ailleo: This is going to be an interesting match! This just might be in favor of Nurse!
Piven: Tonight X, I have a feeling she going to be using this match to send you a message.
X: She can try to send me a message all she wants because I am not afraid of no mask wearing zombie chick!
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. She looks right at X and Ruthless at ringside while she doing this. X showing no type of fear of this woman as he just stares right back at her.
DING DING DING
Nurse move her head to the side as her eyes just lock with his for a bit. Nurse then turned her head around looking right at Tony as she was near the ropes.
Both of the wrestlers start to circle around each other Tony held up his hand towards her to lock up with him. Nurse looked up at his hand as she locked her hand with his but before Tony could try something. Nurse while having her fingers lock with his. Nurse jump towards the ropes from the middle rope and flip him over with everything inside of her to the other side of the ring.
Tony landed on his back as Nurse landed on her feet as she just looks over at him. Tony place his hand on his back as he smirks a bit. He stood up and crack his neck. Nurse staying near the ropes a bit just staring at him.
Tony and Nurse then locked up with each other in the middle of the ring but because of his height he took his knee and hit her in the gut which knocks her over. He gives her a hard uppercut which took her back a bit as he waited for her to come towards him once more with another hard upper cut that took her down to the mat.
Nurse rolled out of the ring while she was trying to get herself together as Tony start to follow her. He starts to run towards her but she then jumps in the middle of the air and landed on his shoulders as she gives him a hurricane right on the outside of the ring. Tony got back up as he was going charge her on the outside that when she drop toe him right into the stairs on the outside the top part of the stairs goes flying off.
Piven: That was great offensive by Nurse right there!
X: She didn't impress me.
Nurse pull up the apron as she pulls out something from under the ring. It was some rope as the crowd was wondering what she going to do with that. She wrapped the end of it with her hands as she places it around the neck of Tony. She starts to choke him while she placed her knee into his back pulling back with the rope as Tony was trying to get the rope from around his neck.
Ailleo: He turning blue!!!!!
Nurse was pulling hard on the rope but Tony with his long legs push himself up off the ground. He flips Nurse over his shoulder right on top of the stairs in front of them. Nurse landed on the stairs a bit awards with her legs on top of it but her head hit the ground a bit hard. Tony toss the rope to the side. He picks up the bottom part of the stairs and he drops them on top of Nurse's legs not once but twice.
Ailleo: He trying to break her legs!
Tony pick up Nurse and toss her inside of the ring. Nurse was slowly crawling over to the corner. Nurse used the ropes to pull herself up but Tony was right behind her. He grabs her leg and gives her the Shin breaker right in the ring. Nurse try to crawl away once again but he grabs her leg once again. He gives her another Shin breaker. Tony go cover

Nurse shoulder lifts up to break the count.
X: If Tony wants to beat her he going to have to bring it to her more. That chick will not stay down.
Piven: Just like you will at your match at Night of Champions!
Tony slide out of the ring as he lifts up the apron he tosses two chairs inside of the ring. Tony slide back inside of the ring as he had his back to her setting up one of the chairs. Nurse had got up as she got up slowly but grabbing the other chair.
Ailleo: TONY LOOK OUT!!!!!!!
Tony turned around right into a hard chair shot across the face. Nurse took the chair as she slams it back down over and over again on top of Tony head till she saw the blood. She looked right over at X on the outside as she picks up the chair and slams it down hard on Tony hard once again, this time, while his blood was covering the ring now.

Jessica Stroup: Winner of the main event ... Nurse Kinsley
Piven: What a match as my last match calling for tonight!
X climbs inside of the ring with Ruthless standing outside of the ring holding his title for him. Tony was slowly moving out of the ring by the ref. X looked over at Nurse Kinsley inside of the ring. Nurse Kinsley and X stood in the middle of the ring just staring down each other but then Nurse slowly back away from him out of the ring. X walked over to the ropes as he stare right back at her and she did the same thing not showing fear at all. Once she was outside of the ring that when the lights in the arena start to flinch on and off.
Ailleo: What the heck is going on!
X looked up as something like red water came dropping down from the ceiling. X stood there drain in blood and you could smell it inside of the arena.
Piven: Is that.. is that blood!!!!!!
X is cover with it as Nurse Kinsley with her X division title over her shoulder looked right at him. You could look at X as he was upset as Ruthann was standing outside of the ring in shocked at what just happen.
Aiello: Folks, we will be right back to close out BRAWL after this quick message from one of our sponsors. We need to get this ring cleaned up and things sorted.
