Immediately as the show opens, we are backstage where cameras have found PETER GILMOUR and DAMIEN BATES fighting it out. Looks like DAMIEN has the upper hand currently and is beating him down with a chair. Several chairshots to the back later, DAMIEN picks up his victim and tosses him through the door that leads to the parking lot. GILMOUR is on the ground but still tries to get to his feet. DAMIEN comes in for the kill but GILMOUR catches him off guard with a lowblow. DAMIEN goes down as GILMOUR gets to his feet. GILMOUR then walks over to the trash can and pulls out a 4 foot flourescent light bulb. He then smashes it over his back. He then picks DAMIEN up and tosses him on the hood of a nearby car. DAMIEN tries to get up but GILMOUR punches him in the face knocking him back down. He then climbs on top of the car and picks DAMIEN up. KILLSWITCH! KILLSWITCH on top of the car! Unbelievable! DAMIEN BATES has got to be out after that.

But it looks like PETER isn't done yet. He grabs DAMIEN by the hair and drags him off the hood of the car. He tosses him on the floor and then goes to the drivers side of the car. He smashes in the window and puts the car in gear. He pushes the car toward DAMIEN who is still on the floor but at the last second DAMIEN somehow gets out of the way and saves himself from being crushed under the car. GILMOUR doesn't see that BATES moved out of the way and when he does, it's BATES who get the upper hand by kicking GILMOUR hard in the gut. He then lifts him up high and drops him hard on the concrete with a suplex tha takes them both down. Suddenly, a very large man appears and picks up DAMIEN BATES. He puts him near the wall and then focuses his attention on PETER GILMOUR. Wait a minute! Isn't that? IT IS! That's DEMON TED SOUL! We haven't seen him in over 4 years! Is he the one that BATES has been calling master?

DEMON TED picks GILMOUR up and WHAM!!! He just planted GILMOUR with the Soul Journey! GILMOUR is out cold. DEMON TED and DAMIEN leave as EMT's rush out to attend to GILMOUR! This could be serious.

Back in the arena, the fans have finished watching what happened backstage as General Manager Jensen Kent makes his way out to the arena holding a red sack. He stands at the entrance and smiles at the fans who are on their feet clapping for him.

JENSEN: Ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to another exciting edition of Anarchy! For those of you at home, we are LIVE at the Coca-Cola Dome, right here in Johannesburg, South Africa! Thank you all so much for coming out and supporting the XWF. Tonight we've got action like only the XWF can bring and we're going to make sure that as always, we don't disappoint! First things first though. Last week, I introduced the revitalized versions of the XWF World, Universal and US Titles. Tonight, I introduce one more into the fold. Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce to you the new XWF X-Treme Championship Title!!

JENSEN pulls the title belt out of the sack and holds it up for everyone to see.

JENSEN: Now, you all know me to be a business man and as much as I would love to shoot the breeze with you all, we do have a show to run. But before things get underway, both PETER GILMOUR and DAMIEN BATES will not be competing tonight due to their lack of patience if you will. So I have decided to make the stipulation for their match at Rage in the Cage, a Hellfire Cage Match!

The crowd cheers at the announcement although some don't know what he's talking about.

JENSEN: I can see the look on some of your faces. You have no idea what kind of match that is other than there will be a cage. So let me explain. In a Hellfire Cage match, two men enter the ring which is surrounded by a 15 foot high cage. The top of the cage will be set on fire. So escaping from the top won't happen. After a few minutes, the middle of the cage lights up. After a few minutes more, the bottom of the cage lights up as well. Eventually they will be inside a steel cage with three rings....or should I say squares of fire. The only way to win is by pinfall, submission or knock out. IF they can manage to somehow escape the cage, then the first person to get out will be the winner. So there you have it folks, enjoy the show.

JENSEN heads backstage and goes through the curtain. Once he is in the back, Two stagehands are discussing last minute business backstage. Let's listen in to hear what they're saying, shall we?

Stagehand 1: He just didn't show up.

Stagehand 2: What do you mean 'he just didn't show up'?

Stagehand 1: Exactly that; he didn't show up.

JENSEN: Wait a minute. What do you mean he just didn't show up? I've got a crowd of over 65 thousand people out there expecting a match. What the hell do you mean he just didn't show up? What about BERENSTAIN and the other two?

Stagehand 1: Well sir, BERENSTAIN called a few minutes ago. That's how we were able to find out DUNHAM didn't make it. I guess things have been a bit chaotic and we lost track.

JENSEN: Goddamn it! Ok fine, the match is canceled then. I want you to go inform CENTURION and the rest that the match has been canceled. They win by default, of course; but the match itself isn't happening.

Stagehand 2: He's not going to be happy about that.

JENSEN: I don't care if he's not happy. I'm the one that's not happy with this. I have a goddamn show to run and I can't be recognized as the best general manager in the business if my superstars suddenly decide they're not going to make the show. Now go tell CENTURION to go find something else to do before they go to the ring for nothing.

Stagehand 2: I'm on it sir.

The second stagehand sprints down the corridor into the distance. What's all this about DUNHAM not showing up for work? Is something wrong? Stay tuned!







- Triple Threat Hardcore Match -

ZANE is in the ring waiting as NICK makes his way into the ring. ZANE immediately runs at NICK and the two start going at it before RIZZA has even made his way out. The two stand in the middle of the ring exchanging punches until ZANE finally gets the upper hand and drops NICK with a hard right! All of a sudden The lights in the arena go out

"House real big. Belly real big. Everything real big.
Rims real big. Pockets real big. Rings real big.
Let me tell you how I live.
Like that, buy that, 24's ride that.
Ladies, gentlemen, gangsters, pimps, mommas, daddies, stunnahs, shiners...
I'M RITCH SNITCH, I'M A REAL BIG TYMER!"

Pyro shoots off and after the pyro is done ZACH comes out with a smirk on his face. He slowly walks down the ramp, looking around at the fans cheering for him. RIZZA walks to the steps and walks up to the apron, one step at a time. RIZZA wipes his feet on the mat before entering the ring and gets on the middle turnbuckle as he poses to the crowd with a big smile on his face. In the meantime NICK and ZANE are outside the ring going at it. Everybody's attention was turned to RIZZA but outside the ring ZANE just connected with a hard chair shot to the face of NICK that put him down hard! RIZZA decides he should join in on the fun. He slides under the rope, comes up behind ZANE who has the chair lifted over his head ready to smash NICK in the back with but RIZZA grabs a hold of the chair and pulls it out of ZANE's arms. As ZANE turns around he is hit with a chair shot right to the face! Both NICK and ZANE are now down on the mat because of chair shots. RIZZA throws the chair into the ring and then picks up NICK and throws him back into the ring. RIZZA climbs into the ring and NICK slowly makes his way up. He turns and faces RIZZA but right as he does is hit with a RIZZALINER!! RIZZA has connected with the RIZZALINER minutes into the match! RIZZA goes for the pin trying to end this match quick. In the meantime ZANE has made his way back into the ring and has brought a trash can into the ring with him!

ONE! TWO!!

Right as the ref is about to hit the three count ZANE slams the metal garbage can right into the back of the head of RIZZA! RIZZA slowly makes his way up but once he does is hit with another garbage can right to the top of the head that completely dents the garbage can into the shape of RIZZA's head! RIZZA goes down hard! In the meantime, NICK has finally gotten up. NICK turns ZANE around kicks him in the stomach, grabs him by the head and lifts him up into the air and then drops him down hard with a brainbuster! NICK goes for the pin!

ONE! TWO!! KICKOUT!!!

ZANE is able to kickout without any help from RIZZA. RIZZA has finally made his way up. He turns NICK around kicks him in the stomach and puts his head between his legs. He lifts him up high in the air and drops him down hard with a powerbomb! RIZZA then picks ZANE up, puts him between his legs, and also lifts him up high in the air and slams him down hard with another powerbomb! Both ZANE and NICK are down after hard powerbombs. RIZZA jumps out of the ring and reaches under the ring looking for some sort of weaponry. He pulls a big table out and sets it up on the outside. He then picks up a baseball bat, another table, and a frying pan and throws them all in the ring. For some reason all of those things were under the ring. RIZZA gets in the ring and see's that ZANE is almost all the way up. RIZZA picks up the frying pan and hits ZANE square on the top of the head with it that sends ZANE right back down to the mat! RIZZA picks up NICK and puts him between his legs. He has his back turned to where he placed the table on the outside that is set up. He picks up NICK and lifts him up like he is going for the 12 O' CLOCK DROP but instead of dropping NICK onto the rope he catapults him to the outside and through the table! NICK is in some serious pain on the outside! RIZZA just stands over the rope and smiles as NICK looks to be completely out of things. ZANE has finally made his way up and is waiting in a three point stance for RIZZA to turn around. Once he does ZANE charges and hits RIZZA with a DEADLINER! ZANE just connected with his signature move THE DEADLINER which nearly took RIZZA's head off! This match has to be over! ZANE goes for the pin but there's no ref! The ref is on the outside checking on the badly hurt NICK. He finally notices ZANE going for the pin, slides back in the ring, and begins the count!

ONE! TWO!! KICKOUT!!!

The extra time gave RIZZA just enough time to be able to kickout! This match isn't over yet! On the outside of the ring NICK NICK is slowly making his way up and realizing where he is. NICK slides in the ring and grabs the baseball bat. ZANE is just looking down at the body of RIZZA who is still down and hurt. NICK takes the baseball bat and pokes ZANE in the back with it. ZANE turns around and when he does is hit with a baseball bat right across the face! The bat broke into multiple pieces! NICK shattered that baseball bat across the face of ZANE! NICK goes for the pin and might have this match won!

ONE! TWO!!

RIZZA is able to get up and pick up NICK and throw him off the body of ZANE! NICK gets up but as he does RIZZA charges him and hits him with a hard RIZZALINER! Another RIZZALINER! NICK is completely out of it. RIZZA stands over him smiling as the RYAN brother is laid out. RIZZA doesn't see that ZANE, who's spewing blood all over the place is right behind him now. RIZZA turns around and sees ZANE right in his face. RIZZA now stops smiling but it's ZANE who begins to smile now. He and RIZZA are almost nose to nose. WHAM! ZANE just hit RIZZA in the face with a headbutt causing the champ to start bleeding from his nose. ZANE then jumps up and hits a beautiful dropkick that sends the champ to the outside. Now that the champ is out, ZANE seizes the opportunity and pins NICK RYAN...

ONE! TWO!! THREE!!!

ZANE is able to pull out the victory in a brutal hardcore match that left all three participants in some serious pain! The champ is still on the outside and can't believe it. ZANE gets to his feet and continues to smile while the blood still pours from his face. The show then goes to commercial break as ZANE leaves the ring while the ref helps NICK RYAN to his feet.

WINNER: JUSTIN ZANE

When the show returns, The synth introduction to Schizophrenia by brokeNCYDE begins to blast through the airwaves which cause huge amount of boo's to echo through the Coca-Cola Dome. R.J. PALMER is met with these boo's as he walks out on to the stage in his wrestling gear and a microphone. With a huge smirk on his face he begins to speak into the microphone while walking down to the ring.

PALMER: It's been a while since I had something to say, hasn't it?

The boo's continue.

PALMER: Well you should all consider yourselves lucky that they gave me a microphone because I have alot to say. Like how much of a hole South Africa is compared to the rest of the World.

R.J. climbs up the steel steps and then between the ropes and gets into the ring.

PALMER: I swear this country has more crime than any other place. How many people here tonight is packing heat? Maybe I should be careful what I say; I don't want a bullet in my head after all. There is a reason why there are gun laws in Australia; it is because they are Dangerous! You people and the Americans don't know any better, do you? Which is why everyone is killing each other and your streets are complete anarchy, no pun intended. That's why when I win the United States Championship, I'll remain the Australian Championship, after the greatest nation on Earth. Why in the hell would I want to wear something that resembles the greediest country on Earth around my waist?

Some cheers from the crowd when R.J. talks badly about the United States.

PALMER: Oh, you like that do you? How about I call it the South African Championship?

The crowd explodes.

PALMER: Ha! There is no way I'll call it after this third world country! But before I can rename it, I have to win my match tonight. But come on, it's against DANIEL MALCOLM. Anyone here can beat DAN MALCOLM. That's not a bad idea, actually. Who wants the chance to step foot in this ring and replace me in this match and face an XWF Legend!?

The fans jump at the chance to compete in a sanctioned XWF match. R.J. leans through the ropes and scans the crowd at the people with their hands raised. He spots a man in the third row with a DANIEL MALCOLM t-shirt on.

PALMER: You! Right there, with the MALCOLM shirt. Let him over the barricade so he can get in this ring.

The man gets helped over the steel barricade and quickly runs up the steps and into the ring. He walks over and stands next to R.J.

PALMER: What's your name?

??? : JOSH

PALMER: Hey, JOSH. So this is a wild guess, but do you happen to be a DANIEL MALCOLM fan?

JOSH: Hell yeah!

He raises his arm and tries to get the crowd on his and DAN's side.

PALMER: Do you believe in all this Malcolmism B.S.?

JOSH nods his head

PALMER: So were you born and idiot or did you take a hard shot to the head? How can you fall for that crap!?

JOSH: Because God has never done anything for me and DAN has showed me the true way!

R.J. looks at JOSH.

PALMER: Looks like the only way he showed you was how to be a total tool. But you're here, do you want to face DAN MALCOLM for me!?

JOSH: Of course I do! It'll be an honour.

orangePALMER: You heard the man! This match is now JOSH versus DANIEL MALCOLM! Let's do this!

R.J. drops the microphone. Schizophrenia starts playing again and JOSH faces the stage ready for his match. His dream is crushed and the music stops when R.J. clotheslines JOSH in the back of the head and knocks him down. He then begins stomping down on the fan. He then grabs his shirt and pulls it over his head and takes it off and throws it to the mat and then picks JOSH up and puts him on his shoulders and hits him with a xMOSHx. The crowd is furious and the boo's would deafen anyone. PALMER picks up the DAN MALCOLM shirt and the microphone.

PALMER: You really think I'd put my championship shot in the hands of one of you!? But not just that, a DANIEL MALCOLM fan!? You're all the most gullible people I know, Christ. Tonight, tonight I show all of you why this Malcolmism crap is exactly that, crap! Then when the time comes, I'll become the new... United States... Champion.

R.J. throws the microphone out of the ring to a crew member on the outside.

WINNER: RJ PALMER

After the match the XTRON lights up with only a single picture. No words, no music. Just a single picture..

Once the image is gone, we now see something else appear...

"The words are so familiar...
All the same greats, the same mistakes, it doesn't have to be like this.
If you don't make a friend now...
One might make you, so learn the gentle art of making enemies."

Faith No More's "The Gentle Art of Making Enemies" hits, and onto the stage walks the self-proclaimed 'King of the Universe', former XWF Universal Champion and reigning Biggest Porksword in the XWF Champion, KIERAN KING. The crowd doesn't like him. Fill in their reaction however you want. Maybe you could envision people throwing rotten fruit at him, although given how incredibly awesome (so much so that he needs two adjectives to describe him) he is, he'd probably dodge them better than Neo and the laws of physics would implode upon themselves and the fruit would turn into faeces and find its way to your face (including in your mouth). KING gets to the ring, insert filler junk about what actions he's doing here, blah blah blah, and then eventually he starts to talk.

KING: Every time I come out here, I seem to get interrupted. It's almost enough to make a guy stop trying. Almost. The thing is, I wouldn't HAVE to keep coming out here and lecturing you all, if you would just for once in your life shut your fucking mouths and open your ears! Do you think I ENJOY being out here in front of you all? Fatty in the front, do YOU think I ENJOY being anywhere near you?

The fat guy yells something back to KIERAN, but whatever it is, it's not important. The question didn't need an answer, because KIERAN was always going to provide it.

KING: NO! I DON'T! The very sight of you DISGUSTS me! With the globules of sweat on your neck, and that greasy hair, you make me feel physically ill! But I am nothing, if not a giver. I am here to HELP you. I am here to help you all! Because I... I have a dream.

He grins wickedly. They may not be in America, but those four words stand out almost anywhere in the world.

KING: In my dream, humanity is something to be proud of, something that seeks to take control of its own destiny and better itself. This dream is not reality. Not yet. Today, we live in a world where people continue to focus on the past rather than the future. Today, we live in a world where people cannot, and will not, accept the truth about themselves... that they are nothing more than a collection of atoms, a stroke of cosmic luck, and that their entire life is meaningless in the grand scheme of things. Accepting this FACT is the first step to attaining the perfection I promise to you all, but instead we have people like DAVEY DUNHAM clinging to past memories that have already begun to fade. DAVEY... you want to face me at Rage in the Cage? I shouldn't be surprised you asked, because DAVEY, YOU have never been listening to what I say! You have always been so quick to jump to conclusions and judge me based upon your own LIMITED worldview, that you just simply have not paid enough attention to the facts. Well, let me repeat them ONE MORE TIME for you. I have beaten you one-on-one. I have beaten you when the two-on-one advantage was in YOUR favour. DAVEY... you are not good enough to compete with me. You are BELOW me. The handicap situation against your two protégés was appealing to me, but there is absolutely nothing appealing about repeating history with you. If I am to guide these sheep to better themselves, then it would be counterproductive to step in the ring with you again. YOU ARE NOT WORTHY. Therefore, as you should have guessed the moment you were idiotic enough to ask, the answer to 'will I face you?'... is NO. I am KIERAN KING and I must set an example! Natural selection is in effect, and you, DAVEY DUNHAM, have been selected against. You will not get your opportunity to prove your worth... that boat has already sailed. Instead DAVEY, you will rot away in the history books, slowly becoming less important, less 'real'. While I... I will change the world forever.

The crowd boos at KING's denial of DAVEY DUNHAM's match, but the expression upon most of their face is one more of bewilderment than anger. This seems to be a different KIERAN KING than the man who was here at the beginning of the year. What does that mean for the rest of the XWF? And if not DAVEY DUNHAM, then who will KING be facing at Rage in the Cage, where he has promised to return to action?


Backstage, we see DAMIEN BATES and DEMON TED SOUL leaving the arena. Neither man notices that PETER GILMOUR lies in wait with a steel chair in hand. Both men continue to walk when all of a sudden.....WHACK! WHACK! Both men get hit with the chair from behind but GILMOUR focuses his efforts on BATES who is on one knee as GILMOUR lifts the chair again. WHAM! Another shot with the chair! This time in the back of the head. DAMIEN has been busted open as GILMOUR drops the chair and lifts DAMIEN up. He grabs him by the throat and smiles at him.

PETER: You thought this was over you son of a bitch?! It's far from over! This......Is only......The beginning!

BOOM! GILMOUR drops DAMIEN on the chair with a hard chokeslam.

PETER: I'll see you at Rage in the Cage!

PETER then walks away leaving both men on the floor.





- US Title Qualifier -

The bell rings and both men stand in the middle of the ring. Each waiting for the other to make that first move. The legendary Butcher glares into the soul of the younger Ryan Brother who stands proudly his ground. Then, TRENT lunges at HUNTER who ducks out of the way and sticks his foot out, tripping TRENT into the ropes. GEIN spins around and shoots HUNTER a glare that seems to go straight through him. The two charge each other and lock up center ring, but GEIN is just too powerful and takes HUNTER to his knees with a quick knee to the gut. GEIN bounces off the ropes and is looking for a huge big boot to HUNTER'S skull but he misses as HUNTER sweeps his leg and takes out TRENT'S other leg, bringing him to the ground! Great instinct by HUNTER!

TRENT is quickly back to his feet, but not before HUNTER who has bounced off the ropes and takes him down with a flying cross body! A quick cover by HUNTER but before the official can get down for the count, TRENT has shoved HUNTER off of him and the two are back up on their feet. These two men know each other so well! TRENT charges, again, and looks for a clothesline but HUNTER ducks underneath, leaps up, and knocks the big man down with a standing inseguri! Beautifully executed by HUNTER! A cover by RYAN! 1...2...KICK OUT by GEIN! HUNTER stands up and walks over to the corner. He quickly jumps up to the top turnbuckle! The fans pop! They know what's coming! Already?

TRENT slowly stumbles to his feet, shaking off the cobwebs from that kick to the side of the head. He turns around, HUNTER leaps off the top...but TRENT has it scouted and catches HUNTER in mid-air and slams him to the mat! What a counter by the legend! He rolls into the cover, hooking HUNTER'S leg! 1...2...KICK OUT by RYAN! TRENT picks up HUNTER by the hair and hooks his head. He lifts him up for a suplex, but HUNTER slides down his back, hooks TRENT'S waist and flips him over his head for a suplex of his own! Great counter by HUNTER! These two have not only read each other's books but they have memorized every page! TRENT is down holding his lower back in pain as HUNTER flips him over and locks in a locks in a crab lock! He torks TRENT'S back as the legend cries out in agony! Will TRENT tap out?! The ref drops to his knees and asks him...but TRENT shakes his head and reaches for the ropes...he's got 'em! The ref starts the five-count as HUNTER releases the hold.

He grabs TRENT by the ankle and drags him into the center of the ring...and locks in THE NAP!! HUNTER'S own submission is locked in!! TRENT is stuck in the middle of the ring with the ropes seemingly miles away! The ref drops down, again asking TRENT if he wants to give up...but THE BUTCHER says no! HUNTER squeezes his legs tighter around TRENT'S head as it begins to turn red. TRENT is fading! The ref lifts his hand once...and it hits the mat!

"ONE!" The crowd yells in unison.

The ref lifts TRENT'S arm, again..."TWO" yells the crowd as his arm hits the mat a second time. This could be it!

A third lift of the arm...but no! TRENT holds his arm an inch from the mat! He slowly starts to get to his feet with HUNTER still locked into that submission around TRENT'S head! Look at the power and strength of this man! He stumbles a bit from the weight of HUNTER on his shoulders, now...and HUNTER reaches over towards the corner and is now up on the turnbuckle! TRENT turns around...HUNTER SPEAR!!! He breaks TRENT in half out of nowhere!

The cover...1...2...THREE!!! HUNTER RYAN has qualified to compete for his FOURTH United States Title!

WINNER: HUNTER RYAN

DUSHANE and KLINE rush each other and lock up! KLINE pushes DUSHANE backwards, but DUSHANE quickly drops down for a single leg and uses his amateur wrestling background to his advantage, taking KLINE down and transitioning to a headlock! DUSHANE wrenches on KLINE'S neck, but the monster seems unfazed, rolling to his knees and standing up! DUSHANE tries to hang on to the headlock, but KLINE elbows him in the stomach, then throws him into the ropes! DUSHANE bounces off and tries to hit KLINE with a shoulder block, but finds himself going down when he crashes into the monster!

ONE! TWO!

....DUSHANE gets a shoulder up! KLINE stands up and kicks DUSHANE in the head a few times, then raises his hands and receives a chorus of boos from the crowd.

DUSHANE leaves the ring and heads to the back as the show goes to another commercial break.

WINNER: VINIC DUSHANE





- Universal Title Tournament Semi-Final -

As we return from commercial, MUDD and STEVE are both in the ring as the bell sounds and the two men lock eyes. Both men engage each other in a long stare down. The referee prepares to intercede as neither man will throw the first punch, but he doesn't want to interrupt the moment. You can cut the tension with a knife and STEVE is the one holding it as he fires a straight right hand that catches MUDD in the jaw. He winds up for another, but a quick block is countered by MUDD who hits a right of his own. MUDD whips STEVE into the ropes and he tries for a shoulder block but STEVE doesn't budge.

The crowd responds to the electrifying maneuver as STEVE rolls MUDD onto his stomach and ties the legs up. STEVE is looking for s submission! STEVE crosses the legs and uses his right leg to keep them tied up while reaching forward with a modified crossface. MUDD is in a world of hurt as a move of this caliber applied this early will surely have long term effects on MUDD's stamina. MUDD has to get out of this and quickly.

MUDD is locked up in the middle of the ring. He has to get to the ropes and he has to do it now. MUDD is beginning to perspire heavily as the crowd waits on the edge of their seats. MUDD frantically tries to extend the arm towards the ropes. He's overextending his reach and it seems like he doesn't care whether or not the arm comes out of the socket. To him it would be nothing new. STEVE tightens his own grip as MUDD cries out in pain. Will MUDD tap out? MUDD is making progress as he drags STEVE along with him, gaining ground as he attempts to make it to his destination. MUDD reaches for the ropes and his left arm is within inches of it. STEVE tightens the grip as MUDD looks to be fading fast. MUDD isn't fighting it. The referee has dropped into position. The referee is looking to see how MUDD is faring. He lifts the arm.

MUDD with a double axe handle attempt...wait a sec...STEVE blocks it. He grabs opponent and steps behind his near leg with his left foot. SIDE LEG TRIP TAKEDOWN! What a counter by STEVE! STEVE then picks up his opponent and signals for the Shockwave. BOOM! SHOCKWAVE! SHOCKWAVE ON MUDD! STEVE then goes for the pin......1.......2......3! STEVE JASON is going to the Universal Title Tournament final match. But who is he going to face? The match is over, but STEVE JASON has yet to leave the ring, remaining standing victorious with his arms folded. He briefly moves one hand to motion to a tech from the side, who slides a microphone under the ring. STEVE crouches down to pick it up, then speaks in booming, challenging, and energetic tone.

STEVE JASON: Does THAT answer whether I'm the man I used to be, MUDD?

The sarcastic smirk on STEVE's face is clear as day, shaking his head slightly. For a moment he moves to leave the ring, then seems to change his mind and continues to speak in a bold, powerful tone.

STEVE JASON: I'll leave the now-humiliated MUDD to slink off into his cave and lick his wounds - a lesson in humility that I dare say ACE VINCENT and JAYZON WILLIAMZ could both learn from. They won't of course - they're both so dumb that I could gangsta-rap it to JAYZON or paint it on a sorority sister's tubetop and ACE STILL wouldn't get it. Ah, well. Makes it all the more fun to break 'em. So let me just take a moment to ask all those boys in the back who week after week claim I'm gonna flake it - how's those ashes taste? RJ PALMER, DANTE ANGLAIS, JASON MUDD - what's a steady diet of your own words like? You said it couldn't be done, said I'd flake, said I didn't have it - and here I am, going to Rage In The Cage while you tools sit on the sidelines, desperately hoping I lose so you can salvage something. Well, let me tell you - that sour little meal of your own words was nice, but September 12, you guys get to have your dessert - you guys get to witness the rising of STEVE JASON like a phoenix to seize the Universal Championship! I don't care if I have to go through a syphilis-infested fratboy and his silicon-powered puppy to do it, or whether I have to go through yet another homie-G who's trapped in 1992 - IT! IS! HAPPENING! And that... IS UNDENIABLE!

With a flick of the wrist STEVE tosses the microphone down onto the canvas, triggering 'Faithless' by Injected to blast over the PA in celebration. He approaches the turnbuckle, ascending it and raising up one hand with the thumb tucked in, then begins to lower one finger, then another until only his index finger remains. The message is made very clear - three down, one to go!

WINNER: STEVE JASON





- Universal Title Tournament Semi-Final -

The lights go out, and the words "Truth Until Death" appear on the X-Tron, then disappear, replaced by the sneering face of ACE VINCENT. A lone voice is heard throughout the arena:

"Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of themselves without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, 'If I die, you are forgiven. If I live, I will kill you.' Such is the rule of honor."

"Omerta" by Lamb of God hits with a thunderous breakdown, and the crowd boos.

ACE saunters out from behind the curtain slowly, looking around at the crowd and smirking. He seems amused that they've suddenly decided to turn on them due to his constant verbal abusing of their cherised legends. From behind him emerges his valet BREE BENZ, who is dressed scantily. ACE raises his arms as BREE kneels down, holding onto his leg, and the two pose as the cameras throughout the arena flash and flicker, capturing the image of THE BROAD STREET BULLY and BREE BENZ. He walks slowly down to the ring, rolling his neck and shoulders, and sneering at the crowd. BREE walks up to the camera, grabs it, and motorboats it.

ACE climbs the steps slowly, walks along the outside of the ring while holding onto the top rope, then looks at the crowd, nodding. They know what he knows: JAYZON WILLIAMZ is about to get fucked up, but unlike his previous matches, they aren't supporting him. They boo as he steps over the middle rope, ducks under the top one, and faces the crowd once more, smirks, then completes his entry of the ring.

BREE slides into the ring behind him as he saunters to the opposite side of the ring, then climbs the ropes and faces the crowd as a king would face a group of peasants. He pounds his fist against his chest three times, then throws his hands back, receiving the boos of the crowd, and channeling them into an energy he can use against his opponent.

He drops down and smiles, then stares at the briefcase hanging from the rafters as he awaits the X-TREME CHAMPION, JAYZON WILLIAMZ.

"U-Way" by Youngbloodz plays of the PA and the crowd goes nuts. JAYZON WILLIAMZ walks out with the X-TREME TITLE draped over his shoulder. He walks slowly down towards the ring, pointing at ACE and talking smack, but he suddenly makes a mad dash for the ring and now one knows why!

That is, until the camera angle changes and we see that ACE VINCENT has slid outside of the ring and is grabbing a ladder! What a cheap tactic! WILLIAMZ runs around the ring and drops the X-TREME TITLE on the ground as he makes his way towards ACE, who slides the ladder into the ring and follows in after it! WILLIAMZ slides in behind him, and as ACE tries to set up the ladder, WILLIAMZ grabs him by the back of the head and throws him out of the ring! WILLIAMZ grabs the ladder and places it under the briefcase, then climbs up to the top quickly, but ACE is already back in and grabs a hold of WILLIAMZ leg and pulls him off! WILLIAMZ lands on his feet, and nails ACE in the nose with a stiff right, which sends him reeling into the corner! WILLIAMZ rushes ACE and nails him with a clothesline, then backs up and tries to hit him with THE KILL SHOT, but ACE ducks out of the way and rolls out of the ring! The crowd boos him loudly, but ACE doesn't care. BREE runs to his side and comforts him as ACE paces back and forth, staring at WILLIAMZ with rage in his eyes, furious that his archenemy just got the better of him. WILLIAMZ flashes a million dollar smile, then points at BREE and calls her a "skank"!

The entire crowd begins to chant "BREE'S A SKA-ANK! CLAP*CLAP*CLAP,CLAP,CALP*!" over and over, and ACE starts to yell at people who are sitting ringside!

ACE: Shut the fuck up, losers! She's a saint! A modern-day Mother Theresa!

ACE grabs a fan's beer, and then throws it on the ground. BREE begins to scream at him, trying to get his attention because inside of the ring, JAYZON WILLIAMZ is climbing up the ladder! He's almost to the top, but ACE slides in quickly and pushes the ladder over! WILLIAMZ lands on his feet, and quickly turns around and tries to hit ACE with another clothesline, but he ducks it, grabs WILLIAMZ' waist, then throws him backwards with a German suplex! Fortunately, WILLIAMZ misses the ladder, but unfortunately, he still lands on his head! ACE quickly gets to his feet, then stands over WILLIAMZ' with a sick smile on his face! ACE throws his arms back and poses for the crowd, who boo him loudly! ACE nods his head cockily, then turns around and bends over to pick up the ladder, but WILLIAMZ leaps to his feet and bulldogs ACE onto the ladder! ACE lands face first on the ladder, and is now sprawled out on top of it! WILLIAMZ slides quickly to the outside of the ring and steals the timekeepers chair. He slides back in, then sizes ACE up and nails him with a LADDERCHAIRTO to the head! ACE has a four second seizure then goes limp again! WILLIAMZ kicks him off of the ladder, then out of the ring, and grabs the ladder and sets it up underneath the briefcase.

He begins to climb up towards the briefcase, and once he reaches the top, he looks down at ACE, then at BREE BENZ, who he blows a kiss to! BREE takes exception and slides into the ring then quickly scales the ladder! WILLIAMZ smirks and instead of grabbing the briefcase, he waits to see what she can do! BREE reaches the top, then slaps WILLIAMZ in the face! It doesn't even phase him! WILLIAMZ grabs BREE by the hair, then rears back, ready to deliver a knockout blow, but BREE kisses him! WILLIAMZ goes with it, and the crowd begins to go crazy! BREE BENZ has just gone black, and she may never go back! WILLIAMZ lets go of BREE, and she smiles sadistically, dropping down from the ladder and attending to ACE VINCENT. WILLIAMZ seems confused, but shrugs it off then reaches for the briefcase!

WILLIAMZ misses! He looks at his hand, puzzled as to it's disobedience, then reaches for it again, but misses by an even bigger margin this time! WILLIAMZ suddenly falls sideways off of the ladder and crashes to the ring! ACE is on his feet, and he slides into the ring. He sees WILLIAMZ lying on the ring mat, then looks at BREE, who pulls her lipstick out of her cleavage and points to it, suggesting that it's tainted! ACE smirks, then slides into the ring and stalks WILLIAMZ, who is trying to get to his feet, but is extremely groggy! ACE grabs the ladder, and as WILLIAMZ gets to his knees, ACE rams it into his face! WILLIAMZ buckles backwards and falls onto his back, then ACE lifts the ladder overhead and smashes him in the abdomen with it! WILLIAMZ clutches at his stomach and rolls over, and ACE smashes it into his back! ACE throws the ladder aside, then stands over WILLIAMZ and stares at him. ACE slowly walks around him, then kicks him in the head softly, mocking the X-TREME CHAMPION! ACE puts a foot on the back of his head, then puts all of his weight on it, crushing WILLIAMZ' nose and face against the mat! ACE lands on the other side as the crowd boos him, nodding and smirking, enjoying himself!

ACE picks up the ladder, then puts WILLIAMZ on top of it, and points to the turnbuckle, but then spots the chair out of the corner of his eye. ACE walks over to the same chair that WILLIAMZ smashed his head with, then picks it up, and lifts it over his head. He rushes towards WILLIAMZ, but THE X-TREME CHAMPION rolls out of the way and ACE smashes the chair against the ladder! As ACE tries to spin around, WILLIAMZ lowers his level, ducks a second chair shot, and nails ACE with an uppercut to the balls! ACE drops the chair and grabs his jewels, and WILLIAMZ ddt's him onto the chair! WILLIAMZ rolls over, holding onto his back, which was injured by the ladder shot, and further aggravated by the impact of the ddt landing! ACE, however, is even worse for the wear, as he rolls over with his hands on his head, blood streaming out from in between his fingers! ACE has been busted open early on in this match!

WILLIAMZ stands up and reaches for the ladder, but ACE grabs his leg and uses it to help himself up. WILLIAMZ turns around, and as ACE gets to his feet, WILLIAMZ levels him with a spinning heel kick! ACE goes back down, and WILLIAMZ grabs the ladder and sets it up in the corner. ACE stumbles to his feet, and WILLIAMZ grabs him by the back of the head and throws him into the opposite corner, then Irish Whips ACE as hard as he can towards the ladder! ACE crashes into the ladder and bounces off of it and up into the air, flying over the top rope and falling out of the ring! ACE quickly stands up, grabbing at his back, but then falls back down onto his face! WILLIAMZ has a quick laugh, then slides to the outside of the ring, picks ACE up and throws him over the barricade and into the crowd! WILLIAMZ slides back into the ring and looks at the ladder, but stops before reaching it. He turns back around and looks at ACE, who is getting to his feet. WILLIAMZ walks over to the corner of the ring, then jumps to the top rope and does a front flip into the crowd and lands right on ACE! JAYZON WILLIAMZ just hit ACE VINCENT with his own move! The crowd begins to chant "Holy-Shit!" over and over as the two men lay motionless on the concrete!

BREE starts screaming at ACE, urging him to get to his feet, but it's JAYZON WILLIAMZ who gets up first! WILLIAMZ stumbles towards the barricade, and then throws himself over, landing on his back. BREE BENZ rushes over and starts to kick him in the back of the head, but the shots are barely registering, and he pushes her backwards. She tries to rush him again but he nails her with a spear! The crowd goes crazy as ACE VINCENT'S valet BREE BENZ gets dropped by THE X-TREME CHAMPION! WILLIAMZ stands up, and doesn't see that ACE is behind him! ACE sprints towards WILLIAMZ, who spins around and covers his head, expecting ACE to throw a punch or a clothesline, but ACE nails him with a running punt right to the nuts! ACE pays WILLIAMZ back for the low blow he was hit with earlier! Ace nails him with a low blow from Hell!

ACE looks at BREE, but doesn't seem to care that she was just laid out by WILLIAMZ. She rolls over and he gives her a "thumbs up", then turns his attention back to his nemesis. ACE gives WILLIAMZ a running punt to the head, laying him back out, then reaches underneath of the ring and pulls out a table! ACE slides the table into the ring and follows in after it, then sets it up near the corner. ACE sets the ladder up in the middle of the ring, then tries to climb it, but the damage it's sustained due to it's improper use has left many of the rungs too bent to carry weight. ACE jumps off of it, then picks it up and throws it on top of WILLIAMZ, who is struggling to get to his feet when the ladder crashes down on top of him! ACE exits the ring and grabs one of the many ladders lining the barricade and walks towards WILLIAMZ with the ladder held in front of him. ACE reaches THE XTREME CHAMP and lifts the ladder over his head, intending to hit WILLIAMZ with it, but WILLIAMZ leaps to his feet and nails ACE in the chin with the KILLSHOT and ACE falls backwards and drops the ladder right onto his own face! The crowd goes insane! WILLIAMZ falls back down, cradling his injured groin, then crawls towards the ladder, which is resting on top of ACE VINCENT'S face.

WILLIAMZ gets to his feet, then stomps the ladder a few times. He grabs the ladder and throws it into the ring, and follows in slowly behind it. He picks it up, then sets it up underneath the briefcase, and climbs towards the top, going for the win. ACE gets to his knees with the help of the ring, and spots WILLIAMZ going for the win. There's no way for him to reach the ladder in time, so ACE does the only thing he can do and talks shit.

ACE: You're lucky this wasn't a regular match, you bitch! I would've beat your ass!

WILLIAMZ hears him and looks down, but ignores him and continues to climb. ACE stands up and continues the verbal assault.

ACE: You're a piece of shit! I'm still standing, fucker! You couldn't finish me if you were Al Roker and I were a fucking cake you weak ass bitch!

WILLIAMZ stops and looks down at ACE, who has a smile on his face. ACE flips him off with his right hand, and WILLIAMZ has finally had enough! WILLIAMZ drops down and invites ACE to come into the ring, and ACE rolls in. WILLIAMZ keeps his distance until ACE is on his feet, not wanting ACE to have any excuses when he lays him out for good! As soon as ACE has his legs under him, WILLIAMZ punches him in the face! ACE throws back a punch of his own! The two men trade punch for punch, the crowd cheering when JAYZON lands and booing when ACE does! JAYZON backs ACE into the corner, then nails him with a few consecutive punches and ACE falls to his ass, his back resting against the bottom turnbuckle! WILLIAMZ picks up the chair, then gets a running start and tries to dropkick VINCENT in the face, but ACE rolls out of the way, stands up, and as WILLAMZ gets to his feet, ACE nails him with a belly to belly suplex and immediately transitions to full mount and punches WILLIAMZ in the face repeatedly, putting his MMA background to good use! WILLIAMZ tries to block the punches, but ACE grabs his arm and swings his legs around, leaning back and locking in an armbar! WILLIAMZ rolls towards ACE'S legs, which open up as ACE transitions to THE TRIANGULATOR! WILLIAMZ made a huge mistake by allowing ACE to turn this into an MMA fight and he's paying for it right now as ACE VINCENT chokes him out! WILLIAMZ isn't tapping, and there would be no point anyway, but is instead trying to pull his head out, but ACE has it locked in as deep as it possibly could be! WILLIAMZ head is turning purple, and the only thing he can do to alleviate the pressure on his jugular is to lift ACE into the air! WILLIAMZ walks him over to the corner and slams him into the top turnbuckle but ACE just squeezes his legs together even tighter! WILLIAMZ legs give out and he falls to the ground, but in the process he powerbombs ACE onto the canvas, the back of his head slamming into all three turnbuckles on the way down! Both men are out!

The crowd begins to chant "This is awesome! Clap*Clap*Clap,Clap,Clap!" over and over. ACE is the first to his feet, and he picks WILLIAMZ up and then quickly puts him back down with a modified sleeperplex! WILLIAMZ lands right on his head, and ACE drags him to the corner and sets him up against the bottom turnbuckle. He calls for BREE to get into the ring, and he hands her a chair and points to WILLIAMZ' face. She holds the chair in front of WILLIAMZ as ACE climbs the turnbuckle on the opposite side of the ring. ACE crouches down for a minute, then leaps into the air, flies to the opposite side of the ring, and dropkicks the chair right into WILLIAMZ grill! The crowd goes crazy and WILLIAMZ fully slumps to the ground and ACE rolls around the ring, his hand on his back, screaming in pain! BREE adjusts the ladder, then helps ACE to his feet. ACE climbs the ladder, barely making it to the top. He reaches for the briefcase, but WILLIAMZ decides to wage a little mental warfare of his own!

WILLIAMZ: I thought you were gonna end my career, kid?

ACE looks down and raises an eyebrow.

WILLIAMZ: Come fucking end it then!

WILLIAMZ motions for ACE to come get him, but ACE shakes his head then reaches for the briefcase! WILLIAMZ musters the last of his energy and rolls over to the ladder and kicks it over! ACE grabs onto the hook and is trying to get the briefcase off of it, but WILLIAMZ picks up the steel chair and throws it at him, nailing him in the liver! ACE lets go with one hand and clutches at his damaged organ, then starts to lose his grip with the other one. WILLIAMZ is waiting underneath him, and when ACE falls, WILLIAMZ jumps into the air, hooks his head, and gives him the 187!! 187 FROM THE HANGING BRIEFCASE! THAT HAS TO BE 20 FEET IN THE AIR!! WILLIAMZ grabs his back, having reinjured it when all of ACE'S weight compressed his spine! ACE isn't grabbing anything, as he is lying motionless in the ring! WILLIAMZ limps over to the ladder and sets it up underneath the briefcase. He climbs up the first rung, then the second. As he steps on the third, his back gives out and he falls off of the ladder. The crowd starts to cheer his name, and he rolls back over and drags himself to a standing position. He climbs the first rung again, then the second, and cautiously approaches the third. Once he's on it, he picks up speed, but ACE is on his feet as well now, chair in hand. WILLIAMZ is looking at the briefcase, and doesn't see ACE on the other side of the ladder, holding onto the chair. As WILLIAMZ reaches the top, he grabs the briefcase, but as soon as his hands touch the leather, ACE nails him in the head with the chair! WILLIAMZ falls backwards and guillotines himself on the ropes! When he bounces backwards, he bumps into the ladder and it tips backwards, ACE still standing on it! ACE tries to jump off, but ends up landing sac-first on the ropes! The crowd lets out a collective "ohhh" as ACE crotches himself on the ropes! ACE falls to the mat, his testicles having taken a beating tonight!

WILLIAMZ rolls over and tries to stand up, but falls backwards into the corner. The crowd screams as they realize he's bleeding from a large gash on his head, caused by the chairshot at the top of the ladder! ACE grabs the ladder and sets it up, climbing slowly to the top. WILLIAMZ grabs the other side of the ladder and climbs up after him. Both men reach the top of the ladder at the same time and start throwing punches as soon as they see eachother! The battle is fairly even until ACE resorts to dirty tactics by poking WILLIAMZ in the eyes! WILLIAMZ recoils, his hands protectively covering his eyes, and ACE grabs his head, leaps off of the ladder towards the table, and the two men crash through it as ACE nails WILLIAMZ with the ACE OF SPADES OFF OF THE LADDER! THE TABLE EXPLODES INTO PIECES AS THE TWO LARGE MEN CRASH THROUGH IT FROM 15 FEET IN THE AIR!!!

The crowd begins to chant "HOLY SHIT!" over and over as the two mortal enemies lay unconscious in the ring! BREE BENZ runs over to the corner of the ring and shakes ACE'S leg, trying to get him to wake up, but nothing short of a miracle is going to get either of these two men onto their feet after that! The crowd begins to boo loudly as GREENMAN runs out to the ring!

He throws BREE BENZ out of his way, then slides into the ring and digs through the mess in the corner, pulling JAYZON WILLIAMZ up to his feet! GREENMAN cuts his own throat, then he hooks WILLIAMZ in reverse ddt position, spins and gives him a neckbreaking cutter! That's FAMINE OF THE VILE'S finisher! Could GREENMAN be FAMINE?! No, but he's DEAD!! GREENMAN moves on to ACE VINCENT, drags him out of the remnants of the shattered table and picks up him. He grabs ACE in reverse ddt position, but BREE BENZ jumps on his back! GREENMAN drops ACE and struggles with his valet as she hooks him in a sleeper hold! GREENMAN grabs her by the hair and flips her over, slamming her to the mat! As he turns around, ACE tackles him and starts to choke him, grabbing a hold of the mask and trying to pull it off! GREENMAN holds on to the mask as tight as he can, but ACE is determined to discover the identity of the meddler! GREENMAN lets go of the and jabs ACE in the throat, causing him to let go of the mask! GREENMAN leaps to his feet, then nails ACE with a kick to the mouth!

BEHIND GREENMAN, WILLIAMZ IS ON HIS FEET, AND AS GREENMAN SPINS AROUND, WILLIAMZ NAILS HIM WITH A KICK TO THE STOMACH, FOLLOWED UP WITH THE KILLSHOT! GREENMAN DOES A BACKFLIP AND LANDS ON HIS OWN FACE! THE CROWD IS GOING CRAZY! WILLIAMZ walks over to GREENMAN and looks down at the son of a bitch who attacked him last week. He grabs GREENMAN'S mask, but lets go when he realizes that ACE is on top of the ladder reaching for the briefcase! WILLIAMZ gets to the top of the ladder quickly, then nails ACE in the stomach with a forearm! ACE doubles over, then WILLIAMZ nails him with an uppercut to the jaw! ACE begins to fall backwards, but grabs on to the ladder at the last second! He chops WILLIAMZ in the chest, then eats another punch! He goes for a punch of his own but WILLIAMZ ducks, then throws a punch of his own! ACE drops down to the mat, grabs the bottom rung of the ladder, and then tips it over! WILLIAMZ falls backwards out of the ring and lands on the ringmats with a sickening thud! ACE sets the ladder back in the middle of the ring, climbs it, and reaches for the briefcase! The crowd is screaming for WILLIAMZ to get up, but he may be dead! ACE grabs the briefcase, unhooks it, and then pulls it down! The bell rings as ACE holds the RAGE IN THE CAGE contract over his head in celebration!

GREENMAN is already making his escape through the crowd, but ACE doesn't seem to care. He climbs down the ladder, and BREE helps him exit the ring. As he passes JAYZON WILLIAMZ, he stops. Officials are ringside, helping WILLIAMZ to his feet. ACE limps over to him, then extends a hand. WILLIAMZ looks at it, then gives ACE the finger. ACE smiles and gives him the finger back, then turns and leaves with BREE. As ACE reaches the top of the ramp, he turns back around and holds the briefcase over his head in victory, much to the chagrin of the crowd. ACE exits the stage, and the camera cuts back to JAYZON WILLIAMZ, who is now on his feet. The crowd applauds him as the officials help him towards the back. As he reaches the top of the stage, GREENMAN reappears with a steel chair! WILLIAMZ pushes the officials out of the way as GREENMAN nails him in the head with the chair! GREENMAN picks WILLIAMZ up, then points to the prepping area, which is ten feet down! GREENMAN raises his hands in an ominous fashion, his head facing the ground. They fly forward and suddenly the tables bust into flames, making the shape of a pentagram! GREENMAN picks WILLIAMZ up in powerbomb fashion, then runs and throws WILLIAMZ off of the stage and through the tables! GREENMAN kneels and prays as firemen rush to the aid of WILLIAMZ, spraying him with fire extinguishers and covering him with a blanket! The camera gets close on GREENMAN, and despite the mask and body suit, he is visibly laughing! WHO THE HELL IS UNDER THAT DISGUISE?!

WINNER: ACE VINCENT
