(The scene fades in. The official IEW opening segment plays. The scene switches to the arena. Pyros blast off as “5 Minutes Alone” by Pantera plays. The cameras scan the crowd, showing sides that read “Hugh's on FIRE” “We Like Pussy” and “Croc's a crock” are shown. The scnen cuts to Judge Mental in the back with CJ Dude.)
Judge Mental: CJ this has got to be a devastating time for you?
CJ: Devastating? Devastating? You have no god damn idea how devastating this is. My sister is 16, 17 in a week, and he thinks that he can get away with that? She is legal, their for she should have sex? That's sick, sick and wrong. I swear to got Judge, this guy is going to regret messing with me and my family!
(The scene switches to Jimmy and Brutus at their table.)
Brutus: That may have well been the shortest IEW interview ever.
Jimmy: If you could call it that. But whatever it was, CJ Dude got his point across loud and clear. Out Cast may be in trouble!
Brutus: Let’s find out just how much trouble he’ll be in against the newcomer.
JR: Well, here’s where we see what The Epic can do.
B: That’s right, Jimmy. This match we’ll see if he can run with the superstars of the IEW.
Mic: The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL. Entering first, making his debut in the IEW, weighing in at 235 pounds, and hailing from Big Fork, Montana. He is JAMES “THE EPIC” HUNTER!
*"Accept The Pain" by Paradise Lost begins to play softly in the arena. James slowly walks out in his wrestling attire of taped wrists and green tights with black highlights designs and a black shirt with "The Epic" written in white. Jerry follows him out wearing the standard black suit with white dress shirt. He smiles as he follows James out to the ring who is focused on the ring. He slides into the ring and takes off his shirt on the turnbuckle; he looks over the fans before dropping his shirt to Jerry. Jerry whispers some advice to James, before dropping down to the ring level. James waits in his corner for his opponent.*
JR: Well, James sure looks like he is ready for his match.
B: Yeah but just being ready isn’t really enough. Besides I’m sure that Out Cast can continue his win streak against Hunter.
Mic: And his opponent, hailing from Newcastle, England, and weighing in at 320 pounds. He is OUT CAST!
*Welcome to the jungle by Guns & Roses plays. The lights go off, the camera focuses on the ring where a blood red eye is being beamed down from the light rigging. as Axel Rose starts to sing pyros go off from the entrance way and The Out Cast walks somberly down to the ring. Out Cast climbs the steps and enters be going between the middle and top rope. He then removes his coat and hands it to a hand outside the ring and looks at James Hunter.*
JR: Well, we may have C-J come out to interfere in this match up.
B: I don’t think that will matter. Out Cast should be able to beat him.
DING! DING! DING!
*The two men circle each other before tying up. OC pushes JH to the mat and JH gets up. JH then executes a hip toss take down.*
JR: Well looks like James is trying his best against Out Cast.
B: Yeah well trying his best might not be enough either.
*JH gets up then tries to pick up OC. OC starts fighting back with multiple punches to the sternum JH then executes a T-bone suplex.*
JR: What a t-bone suplex by Out Cast.
B: YES! That’s what I’m talking about.
*OC tries to pick up JH and JH hits OC in the stomach. JH then executes a DDT. JH then goes for a Dragon Sleeper.*
JR: James seems to have the upper hand right now.
B: No! Come on Out Cast!
JR: You kind of have to admit James is pretty impressive.
B: He’s got some skills alright.
*OC shakes his head no when asked if he gives up. OC tries to shift his bodyweight trying to wiggle out of the hold. OC starts to get up which makes JH go from a Dragon Sleeper into a side headlock. OC then executes a back suplex.*
JR: What a show of strength from Out Cast!
B: That’s why I think James won’t win this match.
*OC gets up and steps back and when JH gets up OC executes a clothesline. JH gets up and OC executes a running axe handle smash. OC then quickly pins.*
JR: Union Jack from Out Cast!
B: He’s going for the cover.
1…
2…
Kick out!
*OC gets up and hits JH across the back several times. OC then executes a TKO. OC then drags JH over to the turnbuckle. OC then tries to pick up JH. JH then fights back and executes another DDT. JH then picks OC up then whips him back first into the turnbuckle. JH then executes a Repeated Shoulder Thrusts into the opponent in the turnbuckle, followed with a Irish Whip Drop Toe Hold into The Ring.*
JR: James Hunter just gave Out Cast the Cold Shoulder!
B: Funny, it didn’t seem like James was ignoring Out Cast.
*JR just shakes his head and Brutus’ comment. The camera then goes back to the action. JH then tries to lock in a full nelson lock while OC is down.*
JR: It looks like James is trying to go for the Torture Chamber lock.
B: Not if Out Cast has something to say about it.
*OC grabs JH by the head and executes a snap suplex. OC then picks JH up and executes a power bomb. Then OC points towards the turnbuckle.*
JR: It looks like Out Cast is going for the Direct Line ton Satan.
B: YES! Out cast will soon add to his win streak.
*Just then, "Whiskey In The Jar" by Metallica begins to play over the loud speakers. OC goes to the ropes and looks to the stage expecting C-J Dude to come out.*
JR: C-J’s music is playing, but he’s not showing up. What the…
B: I don’t know but Out Cast better get back to the match.
*JH is up and is egging OC to turn around. When OC turns around, JH kicks him in the guts and puts him in a basic DDT position. Then JH grabs OC’s arm close to his body with his free hand. From there he twists him around so the back of there neck is on his shoulder. He drops to his knee performing what looks like an inverted stunner.*
JR: Attitude Adjustment on Out Cast!
B: No! Besides, it didn’t really give him much of an “attitude adjustment,” it just knocked him out.
JR: Brutus you are such an idiot.
B: Hey don’t call me names because I will knock you out.
JR: Whatever.
*JH makes the pin cover.*

DING! DING! DING!
Mic: The winner of the match as result of a pin fall is JAMES “THE EPIC” HUNTER!
The referee raises James's arm in victory but before his music can reprise, Jerry gets on the microphone and begins to talk.
Jerry Biggs- What did I tell all of you people! James said what he would do, I said what he would do, He won his first match in the IEW, and you all treat him like he's dirt. This man, just took out a six foot seven inch monster of a man, and all you people stand around like nothing just happened. James Hunter is "The Epic", Damnit! He is the most technically gifted wrestler that has ever graced the IEW, No, He is the most technically gifted wrestler that the world has ever seen. People have spent there whole lives trying to be the best, but James over here is the best and has been for 3 years. This man is The Best Technical Wrestler, EVER!
The crowd half boos, half cheers the statement. Biggs grins a little bit before continuing.
Jerry Biggs- There isn't a man in the back that has half the talent of "The Epic". Take a look around, Hugh Bristic is hiding from this kid. Tommy Contour is out in the back preaching on a soap box rather than coming out to fight this man. No One In The Back Wants to fight James, because they know they are going to get beaten to hell and back. Why did they put him against Outcast in his first match? They don't think he's the best, he has to prove it. Yeah, "The Epic" sure did prove it by beating on some 300 pounder for a couple minutes. We want a real challenge, We don't want any half-ass wrestler coming in here thinking he can hold is own against THE BEST TECHNICAL WRESTLER, EVER!!
The last statement rings across the audience, until a familiar voice comes out of the P.A. System.
Voice- Whoa now Chachi, just one second.
The crowd cheers as Sean Dubose, wearing a Brisbane Lions jersey. Sean makes his way down to the ring as he speaks.
Jerry Biggs- Who in The Hell Are You?
Sean DuBose- Well, Jason, I happen to be the guy who's going to prove you wrong. (Sean climbs into the ring and gets face to face with Biggs.) See, what your boy did, it's all well and good. But, it wasn't all that impressive. Ohh, he beat outCast, a guy who is matching with the likes of CJ Dude. Maybe if he did what I did in my debut, totally and ruthlessly dismantling the current IEW tag champ Gorilla, a man who obviously has accomplished something, then maybe you can brag.
Sean Soaks In The Cheers and speaks again.
Sean DuBose- See bubba, those guys you just mentioned, they're not afraid. Hugh Bristic, world champion Hugh Bristic, isn't afraid. Tommy and Johnny Contour, not afraid. They just happen to be busy beating the shit out of each other to give a shit about some new guy who just walked through the door. Me, well, I'm bored. My boy Riz is a little busy midget hunting. Now, if you want a challenge.... here I am.
Jerry Biggs begins to laugh in Sean face, he's hardly impressed.
Jerry Biggs- Maybe we weren't watching the same match, I'll give you the benefit on the doubt on that one. But come on, do you honestly think you can take on James "The Epic" Hunter, you're teaming up with Rizzo, and honestly, that's nothing to brag about, neither is jumping a Gorilla. I'm talking about Technical Wrestling, not prancing around in the ring, chase masked men, and getting showered with vomit. Let's face it, you're not at the same level as James, and he just got here! I suggest you turn around, go up that ramp and join the midget until with Rizzo.
Jerry smiles over to James who isn't exactly impressed with Biggs right now. He looks over to Sean, who hasn't moved an inch.
Jerry Biggs- Maybe you have some of that Rainbow Shower in your ears still... I said you aren't worth "The Epic's" time, so just go up that ramp and do your business. James needs real competition not guys pretending to be wrestlers.
Sean DuBose- Just what I thought... a coward. Here you are, crying and moaning, trying to extend you air time with a worthless rant. And then, here I come a guy who's pretty proficient in the technical wrestling. I walk into this ring, and i give you what you want... a challenge for your boy The Epic. Oh, by the way, that masked guy we're chasing, he happens ot be one of the best wrestlers the IEW has ever seen, E. G. Mackie. Ask these fans, who is James Hunter? Wanna know what they'll say. They'll ask you the same damn question. Ask them about me, and they'll tell you that i used my TECHNICAL skills to make the current IEW tag champ TAP THE F**K OUT! So tell me again, who is he?
Points at Hunter.
Sean DuBose- But as I was saying before I got off on a tangent... here I come, I say I'm here to give your boy a challenge... and you reject it. It's got to be for one reason only... you're afraid I'll make him look bad.
Sean turns to James hunter.
Sean DuBose- So, what do you say. You, me, one on one next week at Mayhem. You down?
Jerry Biggs steps in between them.
Jerry Biggs- Hey, Listen Here Skippy. I said no go, your not worth the time or energy. Your kind are dime a dozen, and easily replaceable. I don't want to waste my time on you, and James sure as hell doesn't want to waste his ti-
James grabs the microphone right out of Jerry's hand. The crowd roars in approval as he begins to talk to Sean. Jerry is kind of shocked but at the same time he knows his place.
James Hunter- James "The Epic" Hunter versus Sean DuBose?
Sean nods slowly as the crowd buzzes.
James Hunter- Sean, You have yourself a match.
Sean DuBose- Good deal man. See ya next week and good luck.
Extends a hand to Hunter, James grabs his hand and they shake on the deal, Jerry in the background mouths off to Sean, but he shrugs him off.
James Hunter- Yeah, We got a deal
Sean looks over to Biggs and smirks. Sean makes his way out of the ring and he walks to the back.
Jimmy: WOW! What a challenge by Sean DuBose. It also looks like there might already be tension between Hunter and Biggs.
Brutus: next week, Sean will eat his words. Biggs’ client will show that he can back up his manager’s words!
JR: What a show so far, and coming up next is the returning debut of Khrystal Walker.
B: I can’t believe she decided to come back. I thought I had seen enough of her ugly face for one lifetime.
Mic: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall. First off, making their way to the ring, at a combined weight of 568 lbs, Magnum and Dream Man, the DREAM TEAM!
(The arena goes black as "Kashmir" by Led Zepplin starts up. Fog starts to come out of the entranceway and silver lights light up the entrance as Magnum and Dream Man makes there way out from behind the curtain. They walk slowly and calmly down to the ring. They gets to the ring and stands there staring at there opponent's. After a few seconds, Magnum steps onto the ring, grabs the top rope, puts his right leg on the apron and steps up and over the top rope as Dream Man slides into the ring and jumps onto the turnbuckle. Magnum climbs the turnbuckle and raises his arms. They both step back and walk to the corner.)
Mic: And introducing their first opponent, weighing in at 275 lbs, KHRYSTAL WALKER!
*"Cherry Bomb" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts plays as blue and red spotlights rim the ramp. The Risontron shows Walker facing various opponents, with a cartoon cherry with a burning fuse showing between. Walker appears, flexing her muscles. She then skips to the ring, jumping on the apron just as the Cherry Bomb explodes.*
Mic: And her opponent, the current IEW President, PUSSY “PASSIONATE” VALIANT!
*Pussy comes out in a business suit, with no entrance music. She walks inside the ring and grabs a mic. Everyone looks confused.*
B: Pussy's not ready to wrestle? What gives?
Pussy: Khrystal, I'm not sure what kind of game you are playing, but I don't want to play. So I decided to give you a more impressive partner! Lion!
*”Welcome to the Jungle” by Guns n Roses plays and Lion trots out to a cheer from the fans.*
JR: Oh my! It’s one half of the Tag Team Champions! The Dream Team is in for a shocker tonight!
B: They probably thought they were going to win the match easy, going against two girls. Now they have to go against a girl and an animal... where are the men in this business?
JR: Well it looks as if Walker is as pissed as you are, Brutus. She already has a mic in hand.
KW: Valiant! You said I could pick my partner, you lying skank! Lying hurts my feelings, not that you care, you third rate dictator. You need to take lessons from Meyers, at least he knew how to screw me with style. Now ring the bell!
DING DING DING!
JR: Valiant goes outside to the apron to watch this match up close and personal.
B: She was supposed to be in the match in the first place. I don’t know how she weaseled her way out of it.
JR: Walker looks like she will be in first. She just blindsided Dream Man with a haymaker. She gets him back up for a scoop slam.
B: She sure is showing Pussy why she should be the World Champ. Walker grabs Dream again, but Dream hits a drop toe hold and Walker comes crashing down. Dream gets the tag now, and Magnum goes to work with stomps.
JR: Magnum wastes no time with keeping Walker down. Now he locks in a half crab. Walker is screaming in pain. Lion is close by, reaching in for the tag.
B: What is Walker doing? She only has a few feet to go to get to Lion’s hand.
JR: It looks like she is ignoring Lion’s calls. Instead she musters up all her strength and powers out of the hold. She turns around on her back and kicks Magnum in the face with her free foot. Magnum stumbles into the corner. Walker gets up. Lion is ready for the tag.
B: Walker doesn’t look like she wants Lion’s help right now. She just shrugged Lion off and went straight for Magnum! She runs full speed toward the corner but Magnum throws a big boot into her face. Magnum then climbs the turnbuckle and quickly hits a flying clothesline! Magnum makes the tag to Dream.
JR: Well at least Dream and Magnum are working together.
B: Can’t say that about Lion and Walker.
JR: Dream now locks in an STF. Walker is now in a lot of pain with that second submission hold. Lion comes out of nowhere to get a boot to Dream’s face, breaking the hold. The ref sees Lion out of his corner and gets him back. Walker finally gets up, and goes to her corner.
B: Will Walker finally tag in Lion?
JR: It doesn’t look like it. She’s pointing a finger at Lion saying “I can handle this myself.” Lion then takes her hand and slaps it away.
B: He shouldn’t slap a girl!
JR: It doesn’t matter now. The referee counts that as a tag!
B: Ha ha! Lion and Walker are both confused, but it seems as if Lion is now the legal man. Dream notices the confusion and leaps his body onto Lion, sending both of them onto the outskirts of the ring. Walker gets back into her corner as Lion and Dream struggle to get up.
Ref: 1....

Ref: 9...
B: Dream is climbing up the apron, and might make it in time.
JR: What’s this? Lion runs up to Dream and hits a baseball slide, sending both men out of the ring again.
B: That was a risky move for Lion. He is a big man to be doing high risk maneuvers. Lion now grabs Dream and rolls him back into the ring. Lion climbs back in and slaps on a headlock. Dream is trying frantically to tag Magnum in, but he’s just out of reach. Lion then picks up Dream and slams him down with a modified throat toss. Lion now runs to the ropes and nails a Hogan-style leg drop and goes for the pin...
Ref: 1...
2...
JR: But Magnum comes in for the save. If you ask me, Dream was lucky there.
B: Magnum gets back into his corner as Lion works away on Dream. Lion whips Dream hard into the corner. Now Lion hits Dream with lefts and rights. Lion winds up for a haymaker, but Dream ducks out of the way. Lion, surprised, loses his balance and stumbles into the corner. Dream now hits a few chops to Lion’s chest, then stomps on Lion until he falls down onto the bottom rope.
JR: Now Dream makes his way over to Magnum for the much needed tag. Magnum finally comes in the ring and goes to work on Lion, hitting him with a barrage of punches and stomps.
B: Lion needs to get out of that corner. Magnum has Lion up now. He goes behind him and hits a nice flapjack! Magnum now is basking in the glory of the moment. He gets the fans riled up. Lion gets up, but Magnum is ready, and gets Lion in a chokeslam! He goes for the pin.
Ref: 1...
2...
Thr... NO!
JR: And Lion gets his shoulder up just in time. Magnum, frustrated, now tags in Dream. Dream comes up and stomps on Lion a few times. To everyone’s amazement, Lion grabs Dream’s shoe and throws him all the way to the other side of the ring! Lion gets up, and shoulder blocks Magnum to the outside. Lion then goes over to Dream and grabs his throat, gets him up, and chokeslams Dream into a backbreaker!
B: The Lionslam! Lion wastes no time in hooking the leg!
Ref: 1...
2...
JR: Somehow Magnum makes his way over and breaks the pin! Lion sees Magnum this time and gets him in a reverse DDT. Now that Magnum is laid out again, Lion goes for Dream, but Dream kicks Lion in the face with a superkick! Lion is laid out. Dream goes for the pin.
B: Walker better help Lion or else he’s done.
Ref: 1...
2...
Thre... NO!!!!
JR: Lion gets a shoulder up! I can’t believe Walker didn’t come in for the save. Lion desperately needs a way out. Dream now gets to Lion and signals for the end. He gets Lion up and hits the Twist of Fate! Lion isn’t moving. Dream now goes for the pin, watching Walker closely.
Ref: 1...
2...
Thre... NO!!!!!!!!!
B: AGAIN Lion kicks out. How does he do it?
JR: Dream now goes for the tag. Magnum steps in and hits a clothesline. Lion goes down hard. Magnum goes for another clothesline but Lion grabs Magnum and hits a Front Russian Leg Sweep out of nowhere! Now both men are down. Lion gets to his knees and crawls over to his corner. He reaches out for Walker to tag, but she just stands there and looks at him. Eventually, Magnum comes to and grabs Lion’s foot, dragging him away. Magnum picks Lion up and whips him, but Lion reverses the whip and Magnum bounces off the ropes into a complete shot! Out of desperation, Lion slaps on the Lion Death Lock, sending Magnum wailing!
B: There is nowhere for Magnum to go! He is bound to tap out!
JR: The ref is watching Magnum closely. His hand is about to hit the mat, but Dream grabs Magnum’s hand out of nowhere and drags him and Lion to a nearby rope.
B: The ref kicks Dream out of the ring, but Magnum grabs hold of the bottom rope. The ref then forces Lion to let go. Magnum, dazed, tags in Dream, since he was close enough to the corner to do so without much effort. Dream gets back in as Magnum rolls outside the ring and pummels on Lion. Dream then whips Lion to the corner. After a few more punches, Dream hoists Lion up onto the turnbuckle. Dream then climbs the turnbuckle himself.
JR: If Dream hits this superplex, Lion might get knocked out cold! Dream tries to lift Lion up, but Lion blocks it. Lion then punches Dream in the stomach. Then Lion gets a hold of Dream and leaps off the turnbuckle, with his knees crushing Dream’s ribs!!!
B: Oh no! UNLEASH THE BEAST! It’s over now!
JR: Not yet, Lion has fallen off of Dream. He slowly crawls over to pin Dream, and finally gets an arm over!
Ref: 1...

Three... WHA?
B: Magnum somehow grabs Dream’s foot and slides him out of the ring! What a save! Dream has the wind knocked out of him, but climbs back into the ring. Meanwhile, Lion is desperately trying to get a tag. He creeps slowly to Walker, but she doesn’t even reach out.
JR: Dream has gotten the fresh tag to Magnum first! Magnum comes over to Lion, who is reaching for the tag. Magnum grabs Lion but he is trying to fight free. Why doesn’t Walker just reach over for the tag?
B: Magnum finally gets Lion’s head, and sets him up for a powerbomb. Magnum lifts, and SLAM!
JR: THE LAST CALL!! Lion is finished, unless he can get a tag! Magnum looks at Walker, who doesn’t seem to care about the situation. Magnum then hooks Lion’s leg.
Ref: 1...

DING DING DING!
Mic: Here are your winners, THE DREAM TEAM!
JR: Lion dominated the match, but the teamwork of Magnum and Dream man evened things out in the end.
*Lion starts to get up, but Walker runs in and nails the Clothesline from Alaska! Then she picks Lion up and hits the Shattered Khrystal Driver!*
B: Lion is out cold!
JR: Walker is showing her appreciation for her new “partner,” that’s for sure.
*As Walker leaves the ring, Marcus McLarkin and Bryan Strain enter the ring from the rear. Strain hands cuffs Magnum to the ring ropes, slapping him in the face as Magnum is worn out he can not defend himself, Marcus slides into the ring earing the Television Title, hes holding a chair wrapped in barbwire, the hits Dream Man in the throat with the edge of the chair and with powerful force blasts Dream Man right in the face busting him open, Dream man is laid out on the ground bleeding from the mouth and face, Marcus smiles sinisterly as he picks up Dream Man for a powerbomb as he calls over Bryan, Marcus hits the snap with Bryan spiking it, Marcus gets in the face of Dream Man who is out cold, holding the Television Championship. Marcus then gets a mic.*
Marcus: You will never win it as long as I'm holding the TV Title! You had a chance and failed. You will have another chance and you will fail. The Prophecies have decided your fate!
*Marucs starts to leave but pulls a small bag out of his waist he pours salt into the open wounds of Dream Man! he laughs as he leaves the ring, Bryan stays behind he spears Magnum hard into the ring post and leaves behind Marcus. "Better To Reign in Hell" by Cradle of Filth hits the speakers.*
JR: Now that was uncalled for! Why can’t Chaos and Dream Man just have a nice, clean match next week?
(The scene cuts backstage.)
JR: this is C-J Dudes locker room Brutus.
B: How dose that guy get his own room? Hell I don't even have my own dressing room; I have to share with you!
*C-J is laying down on the floor with blood covering his face, a steel chair is laying beside him, and Sammy-Jo is screaming for help*
JR: My God what the hell happened their?
B: Isn't it obvious? He fell into the steel chair!
JR: Come on. He has been attacked, he needs the EMT's!
*The EMT's come in and takes C-J away on a stretcher. The camera focus in on the chair, on top of it is a photo of Out Cast and Bethany making out. The Camera switches back to Jimmy and Brutus.*
Brutus: That man likes ‘em young, doesn’t he?
Jimmy: That’s because nobody is his age bracket will go near him. He has to prey on the young and immature. Poor girl.
Brutus: Poor girl? That little ho knows exactly what she’s doing.
( The scene switches to the back stage area. Hugh Bristic is standing by a door. A sign on it says Pussy Valiante. Hugh seems to be rehersing to himself what hes going to say. The IEW Heavyweight Championship rests on his waist. Finally Hugh opens the door and walks in. )
Pussy- Well, well Hugh Bristic. What is it now? Anymore bright business suggestions for me, or are you going to let the backstage staff handle it.
( Pussy is sitting behind a desk in a make shift office. She has some paperwork in front of her. Near the desk is a bag full of wrestling attire for her match later in the night. )
Hugh- I was coming to give you some pointers for your match tonight. I mean whos better to help you then the IEW Champion.
Pussy- Cut the bull Hugh, what is it.
Hugh- Well Ms. Valiante ... I believe that you should face the facts on tonights title match.
Pussy- Oh yea ...
Hugh- Its all well and good that you clearly want Dark Dragon to step up. And in due time, he might be ready. But lets be honest, your giving him a title shot, before the real number one contender. Coming off of a loss. Its just not practical. Now I think the match should stay, but not as a title contest. The intelligent thing to do would be drop it to non-title. Ill teach him a bit of a lesson. He'll figure out how much harder he needs to work to step up. Itll be a good lesson.
Pussy- Well Hugh ...
( Hugh interrupts. )
Hugh- Now here I have typed up a brief report on reasonings why this is bad for business. Not to mention company morale.
( Hugh hands over a folder. )
Hugh- Now its short, so you can read it and announce your decision, just after the next match ...
( This time Pussy interrupts. )
Pussy- Hugh if YOUD let me talk. The reason Dark Dragon has a title shot, besides being the longest reigning of any IEW champion, is because it was the stipulation I set for him and the reward I set for him taking care of Rison.
( Hugh looks dumbfounded. )
Pussy- I promised Dark Dragon a title shot if he destroyed Rison. Which he did. Hence Dark Dragon was the number one contender BEFORE Contour. Hugh maybe YOU should follow up on some of your promises to!
( Pussy dismisses Hugh, and without even a complaint Hugh walks out, in complete disbelief. The scene cuts back to Jimmy and Brutus.)
Brutus: Just who does she think she is? That is our World Champion she’s talking to.
Jimmy: And she is the PRESIDENT of the IEW. Hugh is her employee, not the other way around. Now let’s get to our next match.
The Mic: The following match is scheduled for ONE FALL! And it is for the EXTREME Championship!
( The Crowd pops. )
The Mic: The winner of this match will also advance to face the TV champion at Rumble Down Under!! First he is the challenger... Crocodile!!
( The Crowd pops for Croc. )
( The lights dim and a green fog covers the arena as "Welcome to the Jungle" plays in the background. Croc enters the arena holding his signature green baseball bat, just as the music starts rocking, accompanied by a few strobe light flashes, as in a strike of lightning. He wears green and black facepaint along with a crocodile-head-shaped headdress with a scaly cape attached. Crocodile walks calmly to the ring with determination in his eyes. As Crocodile enters the ring, he shows off his agility by crouching on the top rope and somersaulting into the ring. Then Croc stands in the middle of the ring and lifts up his hands as green flames slowly protrude out of the four turnbuckles. Then, Crocodile throws his hands to his side, and the flames suddenly extinguish as the music stops and the lights turn back on. Then Crocodile takes off his headdress/cape, ready for the match. )
JR- Brutus, do you see that baseball bat.
Brutus- Crocs signature green bat, yea why.
JR- Thats going to be a difference maker in this match tonight, remember no dq.
The Mic: And the champion, DOWNFALL!
( The crowd begins booing as Walk by Pantera hits the speakers. But in a moment the booing turns silent in confusion. Suddenly Downfall steps onto the stage, wearing the Red Hood mask. He motions to the back, and 6 other men wearing Red Hood masks and ring gear identical to his walk out to stand on the stage.)
JR: What the hell? It's a gang of Red Hoods!
Brutus: Which one is which, they're all wearing masks!
JR: That one over there is kind of big... you think he's...
Brutus: Nah, couldn't be. Trust me, he's nobody we know.
(The gang of Red Hoods march to the stage, and they stop at ringside. One of them slides in the ring.)
JR: We can't tell which one's which!
Brutus: Either way you cut it, Croc's outnumbered!
Ding Ding Ding
( Croc doesnt have time to think and goes right after Red Hood. Croc gives him a hard doubleleg slam take down. Croc moves right into a front face lock. Red Hood eventually manages to push himself up. Croc spins with the lock giving Red Hood a neckbreaker but keeps the hold and returns to a front face lock. Croc lets it go and gets behind Red Hood riding him down to the mat. )
JR- Its an extreme match but I think Croc has a plan he's going techinical with
this.
( Croc then moves up into an armbar, driving his weight down on Hoods arm, keeping him to the mat. Croc adds pressure but Hood makes a sudden jerk to the ropes. Croc lets go. Hood rises and runs into Croc who gives him a monkey toss into a standing arm bar. )
JR- Croc work the arm.
Brutus- What the hell, lets put the extreme into this match already.
JR- You know Brutus, techinical wrestling can be a beautiful thing.

Croc comes out also and chases Hood, Hood takes him over to the announcers and seems to be going for a chair. Croc grabs his bat and as Hood turns Croc sends the bat into the chair slamming backwards onto Hoods head. The crowd starts up a semi-loud "Holy Shit" Chant. )
Brutus- Damn!
JR- Thats extreme for you Brutus.
Brutus- Wow.
JR- The bat went straight into the chair sending it into Downfalls face.
Brutus- Its Red Hood.

JR- BEAST KICK!
( Croc stumbles backward and looks as if hes about to fall but he stumbles into the ropes causing him to spring forward just enough to keep him standing. )
JR- Oh My God!
BRutus- He took that Beast Kick like a man.
JR- Thats an understatment, no one has ever stayed standing after that.
( Hood hits another super kick and this time Croc falls. Hood grabs the chair and goes to the top rope. Hood jumps off with the chair in his hands aiming for Crocs head. )

JR- RED SCARE! This could be it.
Brutus- Brilliant, he needs a quick win because Croc has definitely gotten the best of this match.
( Croc screams in pain. The ref asks if he wants to quit, Croc yells no. )
Brutus- Is he gonna tap?!
( Croc begins to inch forward, aiming for his bat. Hood is turned the otherway with the submission and doesnt notice. Croc finally gets the bat and sends it blindly backwards hitting the legs of Hood. Hood stumbles forward and Croc grabs the ropes, getting up to his feet. Hood turns around.

( Croc gets up and stops the pin. )
JR- Huh?
Croc, a smile on his face, rips the Red Hood mask off his face. But then he looks up, confused. He screams at the ref "THIS ISN'T DOWNFALL!!" The camera pans in to show somebody who looks nothing like Downfall.)
Brutus: Red Hood wasn't Downfall all along!
JR: No, you idiot, it's a setup! But where is the real Downfall?
(Croc has his back turned, talking to the ref about the fake Red Hood, when another one of the Red Hood gang slides in the ring. Croc doesn't notice. This Red Hood, holding a steel chair in hand, stands behind Croc, and peels up his mask, to reveal Downfall!)
Brutus: Oh, there he is!
(Croc turns around, and Downfall gives him an evil grin, then swings for the fences with the chair, nearly beheading Croc. Croc drops like a stone, and Downfall gives him a cocky pin, with one foot on his chest. Croc is starting to bleed from a huge gash in his forehead.)
JR: No! Not this way!
Brutus: He should hook the leg but it doesn't matter at this point.
1...
2...
3!
Mic: Annnd your winner, and STILL IEW Extreme Champion... DOOOOWNFALLLL!!!
JR- Damn it! Croc was on a roll tonight.
(Three more of the Red Hood gang climb in the ring. The biggest one drops Croc with a clothesline, and the other two stomp on him. The Red Hood's pull off their masks to reveal... Redd Dogg, Hightower and Jason Twisted!!)

Brutus: And now the Twisted Rage!!
JR: The Inner Circle is beating the hell out of Croc!
( Downfall and Inner Circle celebrate in the ring, but all of a sudden the IEW TV Champion Marcus makes his way down to the ring. )
JR- What is he doing out here?
Marcus walks down wearing the Television Championship and walks around the announcers desk grabbing the Extreme Title, he compares both championships together, he touches the face plate of each title. Marcus grins and points at Downfall who is on the edge of the ring looking at Marcus. Marcus screams "See Ya at the Rumble Down Under!" )
Brutus- There is going to be one hell of a match at the Rumble DownUnder.
JR- For the second time tonight, that is an understatement.
(The scene switches backstage where Rizzo is standing with Karl Weiss.)
KW: Good evening IEW. With me right now is Rizzo. Riz, how’s it going?
Riz: It’s not going so well Karl. I’m starting to get frustrated. Usually, I set out to achieve a goal and I do it. But lately, one slippery shit of a man is making that hard to do.
KW: I assume you mean Mackie.
Rizzo: Good job skippy, glad to see you’re paying attention. Over the past few weeks, I have come damn close to finally getting my man. But some how, the little bastard keeps giving me the slip and one upping me. Soon, I will get what I want. A one on one match up with me and Mackie.
KW: What makes you so sure you’ll get it?
Rizzo: Mackie is many things, even a coward. But he’s not dumb. He knows that he could really make a name for himself if he were to pull off the upset and beat me. He knows that I’m his ticket to getting to the next level. How long has he been here? 2 years or so? And he’s only had one world title match. Sounds to me like someone’s been buried.
(Just as he finishes, Pussy Valiant walks into the scene.)
Pussy: Dear Rizzo, you really love your self, don’t you?
Rizzo: Just stating the facts, ma’am.
Pussy: Well then, here’s another fact. You have your match, at Rumble Down Under. It’s time to put up or shut up.
Rizzo: Don’t worry honey, I won’t disappoint.
(The scene switches back after Rizzo and Pussy part ways.)
Jimmy: he’s finally got his match. Not against Dor, not against Bengal, but against the man himself, E. G. Mackie!
Brutus: Rizzo’s finally going to get his mouth shut up!
Jimmy: Speaking of people needing to shut up, Hugh Bristic takes on DarkDragon next!
The Mic: The following contest is schedule for one fall, and it is for the IEW World Championship. Coming to the ring first, he is the challenger. He hails from Cole Harbor, Nova Scotia, Canada and he weighs in at 200 pounds….. DarkDragon!!!
[The piano starts up in Groundbreaking by Swollen Members, fog is rising up from the arena floor and around the top of the entrance ramp and the voice over of Mad Child is heard, "When nature divides, the spirit unites. This is what dreams of made of", then the music really kicks in and Dragon shoots out from behind the curtain like a fired bullet on his signature Mongoose bike with his black signature full faced helmet and lands with a triple bar spin on the top of the entrance ramp just as pyros are shooting up from both sides of the ramp. Dragon looks around at the crowd.]
The Mic: And his opponent stand six feet four inches tall and he weighs in at 233 pounds... Hugh Bristic!
[Hugh comes out to Pomp & Circumstance, quickly running out to the stage and motioning to the crowd to cheer for him. He makes a walk down the aisle, with an air of pure confidence, nodding his head at people in the crowd. He slides into the ring where he taunts the crowd some more.]
Jimmy: This might be Hugh’s biggest challenge yet!
Brutus: Hugh’s just going to extend Dragon’s losing streak!
