We open to a wide shot of the 96 Arena before fading to a shot of the entrance. Some high profile matches are happening on this webisode of eXpose, one of which is containing the man walking to the entrance, Alex Kent. Kent cracks his knuckles before walking through the entrance doors, coming face-to-face with his manager Marissa Child
Marissa: There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you.
Alex Kent: “I could've sworn I told you I was heading out for a bit.”
Marissa: “You said nothing to me.”
Alex Kent: “You might've been too busy for your own good.”
Marissa: “Anyways there's a lot of big news tonight. I've got the arrangements done for one of the interviewers to come to your locker room in about twenty minutes, your dietary plan is sorted for the next two weeks, you've got an interview booked for next week and I've got some big news about a possible rematch at the end of the month if you lose tonight.”
Alex Kent: “I aint losing. and I'm not going senile Marissa seriously; I'm up to date on that at the very least.”
Marissa: “But Kent, there's more to it than that. Something big is happening tonight and you need to know about it.”
Alex Kent: “Are you going to forget it any time soon?”
Marissa: “No I don't think I can.”
Alex Kent: “That's good then because I'm inches away from forgetting what I'm thinking about, I'll talk to you later on okay?”
Marissa: “Sure, whatever. You need to know about this though.”
Alex Kent: “It can wait Marissa, seriously it can wait.”
Alex walks off in the direction of his locker room, leaving Marissa to shake his head in dismay.
Marissa: “He's not gonna like this. Especially when he gets told by someone else.”
Marissa begins to walk out of the camera shot as it cuts.

Before the actual show begins the camera crew is backstage filming the two owners having a conversation. Behind them are background props made out of cardboard that look like a five year old made them.
Samantha: I don’t know if you realize this or not, but those props look like they are made out of cardboard and look like a five year old made them.
Jacob: Bitchin’ ain’t they?
Samantha: Right…
Sam sits down and adjusts her hair ever so slightly away from her face. To say she looked good would highly be an understatement. She is wearing a pair of tight jeans that show off every single curve on her lower body and a sexy leather corset top that most would agree was meant for the bedroom and not as an everyday ordinary outfit piece. Looking up at Jacob she gives off a slight smirk.
Jacob: What’s the smirk for? You wanna rough me up in the sack don’t you love? As ace as that would be you don’t shit where you eat or is it eat where you shit…
Both Jay and Sam have puzzled looks on their faces.
Sam: Huh?
Jay: Exactly! But if you don’t mind me saying in a non-sexual sort of way, you do look rather fit tonight.
Before Sam can begin to open her mouth in what seemed to be a “Thank You” and a compliment of her own, she is cut off.
Jay: And I must say that if I could, I’d so fuck me right now. I mean look at me, I am GORGEOUS!
Samantha: Well that is a very nice suit. Looks like it must have cost you a boat load of cash.
Samantha begins to ponder how he could afford such lavish clothes seeing as how he has dumped all of his own personal finances into the company… or did he? Jacob begins to look a little nervous as he scrambles for words.
Jay: Boat? Cash? Nah… I got these at the Thrift Shop. Yeah that’s it!
Samantha: Yeah, okay. So how many people does this arena hold?
Jacob: When it’s sold out, about six thousand.
Sam: And how many tickets did we sell tonight?
Jay: Sell… about forty-five. Give out… somewhere around…
Jacob Smith hangs his head slightly as he mumbles a number under his breath.
Samantha: I’m sorry, what?
He mumbles again, but this time it is a bit clearer.
Samantha: Did you just say four-fifty? You gave out four-hundred and fifty FREE tickets out of like five-hundred total?! How in the hell are we going to make any money that way Jacob?!
Jacob Smith: How many different promotions are there out there? Yeah, a lot! Did you honestly expect us, a no name brand to be sold out the second night? Hell no! You gotta run this place like a drug dealer runs the streets. Give them a little taste for free and once they get hooked you can charge them whatever you fancy. Besides I am in the works to bringing on some sponsors to help with the costs.
Samantha: Whatever, we better get going. The show’s about to start any minute now and I am sure you are just as anxious as I am to see how it turns out.
The two exit the room, Jacob Smith taking a quick glance at Samantha's ass one last time, fuck does he care SBK isn't around at the moment as the feed cuts to the ringside area for the first match.
- - - - [Commonwealth Championship: Chad Vargas vs. Makayla Fox vs. Salim Raj] - - - -
The bell rings and the three competitors circle each other, each eyeing the other two to the best of their ability. Fox decides to strike first, lunging towards Raj, but he’s intercepted on his way in by Vargas, who slams him down to the mat. Raj nods to Vargas, and they both pick up Fox and drop him again with a Double DDT. Fox attempts to get away and crawl to the other side of the ring for a breather, but Raj and Vargas each grab one of his legs, dragging him back into the center of the ring. They apply a single leg boston crab each, and after a few seconds of Fox attempting to fight out of it, seem to realize that they can’t win working together on a submission hold, each dropping their leg and locking up above Fox.
Raj manages to win the grapple with a quick knee to the gut, followed by an uppercut. Vargas stumbles back, and Raj charges in, just in time to get caught with a stiff clothesline. Vargas is on the offensive now, lifting Raj up and then executing a picture perfect suplex, which Raj rolls through into a pinning predicament for a one count. Both men stand up and the audience is firmly behind Vargas, chanting his name. They prepare to lock up once more, but Fox is up and runs at them for a double clothesline, perhaps realizing too late that they see it coming.
Both men lift Fox up by one arm and drop him down to the mat with a sickening thud, executing a double team Razor’s Edge. They proceed to begin to focus on one another again, exchanging lefts and rights, uninterrupted as Fox is right out of it. Raj ducks a wide left from Vargas and attempts a neckbreaker, but is reversed and put into position for a DDT, which is then reversed again into a dropsault from Raj! The crowd shows it’s appreciation for the maneuver as both men get to their feet, circling once more.
With both Fox and Vargas down, Salim Raj lines them up beside one another. He then climbs to the top rope and calls to all of the fans. Raj leaps off the top rope with a corkscrew moonsault and lands on both Vargas and Fox. He then pins Fox.
1..2..!
He just barely kicks out but Raj isn't deterred. He gets Fox back up and shoots her into the corner. He runs in and hits Fox with a wheel kick, causing her to stumble out of the corner. Salim then shows amazing atheleticism by jumping up to the top rope and leaping off with an inverted flipping neckbreaker. Fox is down and Raj pins him again.
1..2..! Vargas breaks up the fall and then gets Raj up and dumps him over the top rope to the outside.
Vargas gets Fox up and whips her into the ropes. When she comes charging back Vargas turns Fox inside out with a clothesline. Fox is down but Vargas gets him back up. He grabs Fox's arm and lifts her up for a backdrop but instead of dropping her backwards, Vargas spins her out into a powerbomb and pins him!
1..2..!
Fox just barely gets her foot on the bottom rope. She gets back up and dumps Vargas over the top rope to the floor. Raj charges at Fox, who hops onto the apron, hits Raj with a shot and then springboards into the ring and goes for the Elysium but Raj pushes her off his shoulders. When Fox turns around, Salim Raj nails hr with the Jai Ho. Makayla is down and Salim pins her. 1..2..3!
Winner: Salim Raj (Commonwealth Champion)

We go backstage and we see Samantha talking to a Production Assistant when you can hear a recognizable voice in the background.
Carmine Veseteri: Well hello there old friend...
Samantha turns around and with a huge smile on her face runs over to Carmine and gives him a hug
Samantha: Carmine! Do you know how long I was waiting for you to accept my invite into this company?!
Samantha pushes Carmine jokingly
Carmine: Well you know me, all mysterious like... Mr. Unpredictable! So where's the...
Samantha: Bar?
Carmine: I guess I'm not that unpredictable after all.
Samantha: Look Carmine, I am super busy with the second show. Let's hit the strip clubs afterwards and talk about when you'll make your debut match. Catch up a bit?
Carmine: Alright Lov. Talk to you soon.
Samantha wonders off and Carmine watches her leave.
Carmine: Did her butt get bigger or is it just me?
In from the opposite side of the room walks Jacob Smith
Jacob Smith: Nah mate, it ain't just you. She's got an ass that would give even a paraplegic a stiffy.
- - - - [Elite Championship Match: Ahriman vs. Jinx vs. Kent] - - - -
Jinx and Ahriman immediately runs towards Kent, double teaming him with punches to the back. Kent stops at nothing to defend himself as he exchanges punches with each of them. The two newcomers then kick Kent together in the gut before sending him towards the ropes. They set up for a double clothesline, but Kent counters the attempt with a double clothesline of his own. Kent then looks at them as the crowd gives him a pop for the move. Jinx and Ahriman both slowly get up and Kent then goes for Ahriman, hitting him with chops to the chest. He throws Ahriman into the corner and goes for a shoulder tackle, but Ahriman then moves out of the way, having Kent connect with nothing but metal. Kent falls on his knees, holding his shoulder as Ahriman turns around to a sudden dropkick from out of nowhere by Jinx. Jinx goes and connects with a follow-up leg drop. He goes for an early cover, but Ahrima kicks out before the count of two. Jinx then grabs Ahriman’s arm and locks on an armbar submission, having Ahriman struggle to get to his feet. Ahriman tries to get out of it, but each time, Jinx makes the hold tighter. After a couple of minutes, Ahriman slowly gets onto his feet, making the armbar even more painful for him. He falls back onto the mat as he screams out in pain. Suddenly, Kent runs over and hits Jinx with an elbow drop, making him unlock the submission. Kent starts stomping Jinx to the ground as Jinx struggles now to get onto his feet. Kent then picks up Jinx and sets him up into a suplex, but Jinx slides out of it and connects with a single arm DDT. He goes for a cover…1 – 2 – kickout by Alex Kent! Jinx looks at the referee and grabs Kent’s head as he sends him into the ropes. Kent stops himself at the ropes, but Jinx hits him with a clothesline before he can even turn around. Jinx starts to hype the crowd up as he turns his attention to Kent, who suddenly gives him a kick to the gut followed by an enzuiguri.
Ahriman makes his way towards the top rope, in which he notices Kent slowly getting back up on his feet. He turns his attention towards him and flies off the top rope with a flying cross body, landing right on Kent. The two superstars struggle to get back on their feet as the fans go wild. They both get back on their feet and start exchanging blows with each other, but then get knocked back down as a rejuvenated Jinx runs towards the outside, landing on both with a flying body press over the top rope. All three are now laid out on the outside as the fans start chanting “96” throughout the arena. Jinx slowly makes his way back up to his feet and grabs Ahriman’s head. He then goes for an irish whip towards the ring steps, but Ahriman counters it and whips him back towards him, connecting with a nasty looking big boot, nearly taking Jinx’s head off. Ahriman picks Kent up, but Kent pushes his hands off and start throwing punches to the head of Ahriman. He then irish whips Ahriman towards the barricade, which causes Ahriman to fly over into the crowd. A groggy Jinx slides back into the ring as Kent makes his way back in and kicks him in the abdominal area, causing him to fly about a feet in the air. Kent bounces off the ropes and connects with an elbow drop to the chest, then picks up Jinx’ head and locks on a sleeper hold. Jinx struggles for breath as Kent adds more pressure to the hold. The fans start stomping their feet and clapping for Jinx in order to hype him up as Jinx slowly fades into unconsciousness. The referee picks up Jinx’s arm and drops it, signaling a 1 count for the submission. He repeats this as he watches Jinx’s arm drop to a 2 count.
The ref repeats this one last time in which Jinx’s arm stops in mid-drop and the newcomer starts trying to get more and more energy into his system. He slowly rises up from the ground and hits Kent in the gut with a couple of elbows before running towards the ropes, connecting with a flying elbow. Jinx springs back up to his feet as he sees Ahriman slowly getting back up on the apron and he runs towards the ropes and connects with a flying elbow on Ahriman, having him fall back onto the outside floor. Jinx jumps up onto the top turnbuckle and waits for Kent to get back onto his feet. He then flies off the top rope and connects with a missile dropkick onto Kent. Jinx goes for the cover…1 – 2 – kickout by Kent! Jinx then grabs his head and screams out in frustration as he hovers over Kent and starts laying him out with punches to the temple. He then picks up Kent and sets him up for a front suplex, but Kent then gathers up enough energy to counter the move with a northern lights suplex, setting Jinx up for a pin…1 – 2 – kickout by Jinx.
Ahriman slides back into the action with frustration and hits both men with a standing moonsault as they are laid out on the mat, setting up a pin on top of both men…1 – 2 – both Jinx and Kent push Ahriman off, sending him flying into the air a couple of feet. Ahriman looks at the men in shock as he lands on his knees and storms towards Jinx, hitting him with a headscissors takedown. he then turns and hits Kent with a clothesline. Ahriman screams out as the crowd gives him a huge pop. He slides out of the ring and grabs a couple of chairs from under the ring as Kent and Jinx slowly get back onto their feet. Jinx notices the weapons being thrown in the ring and runs towards Ahriman, connecting with a baseball slide onto the chair, sending the chair straight into Ahriman’s face. Ahriman falls back onto her back as Jinx slides out of the ring to get him. He tosses Ahriman back into the ring, which makes Kent take advantage of the situation and go for the pinfall, but Jinx immediately pulls Kent out of the ring and slides back in to try to make the cover. Kent pulls Jinx’s leg and sends him out of the ring. The two men look at each other with anger and start having a shoving bout before Maximus lays Lariett out with a haymaker from out of nowhere. He slides back into the ring and goes for Marie, but Marie immediately jumps out of the way and gets Kent with a sidekick, having him spreadeagled on the floor. As Jinx tries to climb back into the ring, Ahriman runs towards the ropes and connects with a front dropkick right into Jinx’s jaw, having him fly into the barricade on the ringside floor. Ahriman raises his arm in the air, going for the top rope and connects right onto a still unconscious Kent right in the middle of the ring with a BIG SPLASH which sends the RING CRASHING!
Jimmy West: What the shit just happened? The ring, it just collapsed!
With all Three wrestlers in a stand still at what just happened, the cameras quickly cut to the back as we see Samantha rushing through the hallways in a mad frantic state. After speeding around a sharp corner she runs directly in to Jacob Smith who is standing their very calmly for what has just happened.
Samantha: There you are! What the hell just happened?!
Jacob Smith: Huh? What are you going on about?
Samantha: What do you mean what am I talking about? Did you not just see the ring collapse out there?
Jacob Smith: I was in the shitter, I had no idea.
Jacob nonchalantly brushes off the arm of his suit jacket with his hand which caused Sam to have a flashback from earlier in the night where she commented on how expensive his suit looked. Suddenly her face became enraged. Grabbing him buy his jacket she shoves him hard in to the wall.
Samantha: You son of a bitch!
Jacob Smith: Here is neither the time nor the place to do the horizontal mambo love. Incase you didn’t know, we have a pretty big problem to take care of right now.
Samantha: You got one chance and one chance only to answer me these two simple questions. How much was that suit and how did you get the money to buy it?
Jacob went from sarcastic to scared in a mere matter of seconds. He did not want to answer, but Sam had her knee in his crotch hard, and not in the good type of way.
Jacob Smith: I uh… It umm…
Sam: Answer me! Now!
Jacob: It cost me 1758.73 give or take a few hundred bucks.
Samantha: And the money, where did you get it.
Jacob: It was my money to spend however I wanted to. So what if I skimped on a few costs here and there. I paid the rent on this place for the year, paid a crew to build the set…
Samantha: Most of the set is made out of cardboard you ass.
Jacob Smith: I paid the roster and staff and I had a decision to make. I mean I wanted to look good for the Second show so I went with one of the cheaper rings. Look, the guy told me it was slightly used and it was a steal not to buy it.
Sam: Slightly used? The thing was rusted to the core and smelled like a fat guys farts and now look what happened. Your piece of shit “slightly used” cheap ring just collapsed during our Main Event. Key emphasis on the word ours! My name and reputation was on the line just as much if not more than yours and now we are going to be a giant laughing stock. Any chance we had at getting those people in the audience to come back is down the drain now.
Jacob breaks free of her grip and steps back out of her range.
Jacob Smith: Look, I know I really messed up bad and I am sorry. I think I have a way to fix this whole mess. Like I said earlier I got us some sponsors in the works and that should help float us over until we start getting a following. As for tonight, let’s turn this mess around in our favor. Make the rest of the match a No DQ and Falls Count Anywhere. What do ya say?
Samantha: I say if this doesn’t get you out of your extremely deep hole you have dug for yourself it will bury you. But it’s worth a shot.
The camera quickly cuts back to what used to be the ringside area where we see Jinx and Ahriman team up on Kent. Kent attacks Ahriman with lefts and rights, while Kent turns around and gets blasted by Salim Raj, who came out of no where. Raj grabs Kent and brings him over the crowed barrier. Salim pulls Kent up to his feat and then repeatedly slams him head into the barrier. Jinx and Ahriman keep on fighting as they exchange punches all the way to the back and outside the doors. Salim Raj and Alex Kent follow. guess we found out who Marissa was talking bout. Once outside Ahriman sends Jinx face first into the side of the dumpster.
Jinx is out lying on the ground as Ahriman walks over to Salim and points to Kent. Salim grabs Kent and tosses him to the side but Kent quickly does a Double Leg Takedown. Jinx is up on his feet and looks to go for a school boy, but Ahriman turns kicks Jinx in the gut and drops the clown with the Glimpse of Sanity! He makes the cover at the same time Salim takes Alex down with the Jai Ho slaming Alex against the dumster!
ONR.
TWO..

Exhausted, Ahriman raises his arm in victory from his grueling match and his handed the Elite Championship as the second ever airing of eXposed comes to a close.
Winner: Michael Ahriman (Elite Champion)
