The signature HBO logo breaks through the static and appears on your screen accompanied by the heavenly choir. But that logo is destroyed when the opening chords of Never Enough by Five Finger Death Punch start up. We see old, new, and newer NLWF footage being played, intermingling with the lyrics of the song. All the images have a red and maroon tint.
I'm so fed up with everyone around me
(No one seems to care)
I'm just so far gone and nothing's gonna change
(I'll never be the same)
Highlights begin to role as Joe Santiago moonsault off of a balcony through Cyber Punk. Brenton Cyrus punt kicks Joe Santiago. Tapido being hung up on the cross.
Its always do this, do that
everything they want to
I don't want to live that way
Every chance they get their always
Pushin me away
Salvation standing above the bodies they have moved through.
Rico Sutton dropping Justin Kash with the rough Justice
Its never enough
No its never enough
No matter what I say
Various action shots with wrestlers flying through the air.
Cyber Punk going through hell an back to defeat Havoc inside the double cage of hell
Joe Santiago’s epic victory over Cyber Punk
Its never enough
No its never enough
I'll never be what you want me to be
The shot switches to the skyline of Miami Florida as multi colored pyro along the stage, runway and the ring all erupts at the same time and balloons and confetti is released into the already roaring crowd, as the NLWF logo becomes the Salvation logo, as it spins it changes with the Direct Hit logo and the No Limit girl's hit's the stage just as the cage dancers begin to shed there cloths, as do the stage dancers working the NLWF stage poles. As the camera then shows, Chuck Matthews and Brenton Cyrus are shown in the middle of the ring with their Tag-Team titles. Alex Mark holds the Jr. Heavyweight title as he steps out of a Hummer limousine. Finally, Brenton Cyrus is standing in a ring of fire holding up the Heavyweight championship which runs into the Celebration package
A highlight video package hit’s the air celebrating Salvation’s victory at King of the Throne…But the videos is cut short as The arena lights are all turned out as ‘Got My self a Gun’ hits as Carmine Vestieri and Jessica Vestieri make there way to the ring. The power couple strut there way down the ramp. They enter the ring, and we can see the limp in Carmine’s step, a injury he must have suffered at King of the throne. He also has a bandage on his head. They enter the ring and Carmine grabs the mic
Carmine: Last week at King of the Throne, I had to sacrifice my body for the woman I love. At King of the throne, Brenton Cyrus forced me to enter the cage of destruction. He knew I couldn’t turn him down. I had to get Jessica back and he knew I would do everything in my power to get her back.
Jessica rubs his chest
Carmine: And I made a conscious choice as they carried my broken body out of that ring. That choice, is to ruin each member of Salvation STARTING TONIGHT! There will be no epic celebration for these band of fools. Each championship they hold will be on the line tonight, with challenges I hand picked. I well do whatever I can to strip them from this high they are now riding.
Dirty little secret
Dirty little lies.
Say your prayers and comb your hair
Save your soul tonight.
Drift among the faithful
Bury your desires.
Aberrations fill your head
You need a place to hide
And I am...
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember me?
Brenton Cyrus emerges from the backstage area head pointed down as he slowly walks down the ramp
When your world’s come crashing down
I want to relive.
(Your god ain't looking down on me!)
I’m not Jesus
Jesus wasn’t there!
You confess it all away
But it’s only shit to me
(Your god ain't looking down on me!)
I’m not Jesus
I will not forgive!
Cyrus enters the ring and climbs to the top rope. He does his Jesus Christ pose as fireworks go of behind him, shaped like a crucifix
No I won’t!
No I won’t.
I thought you were a good man
I thought you talked to god.
You hippocratic, messianic, and child abusing-turned-satanic.
Do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
Joey: Would you ever think you would be seeing Brenton Cyrus as Heavyweight Champion?
Brian: Brenton Cyrus, followed by Alex Mark and Chuck Matthews the other members of Salvation. Chuck who was so instrumental in aiding Brenton become Heavyweight Champion at King of the Throne.
Joey: You can just see the look…The look of satisfaction on the face of Brenton Cyrus. And look at the face of Carmine, he is not enjoying this one bit
Brian: Cyrus holding that…that title is a fulfillment of a mission, and he wants everyone…He wants the World to know who the champion is.
Joey: Its almost…Like he told you so.
Cyrus stands face to face with Carmine as the crowed boo’s the champion.
Brenton Cyrus: Before I get how much of a complete jackass you really are Carmine, I would like to send out my condolences to Joe Santiago. Last week we witness the end of a historic era. Joe Santiago drop the championship and turned his back on the wrestling world. And yet I’m the one you all Boo? I fought inside that ring, I fought to become Champion. Sure I made a few moves, but I still had to fight for the belt. All of you in this arena, All of you people at home watching on television you all are exactly the same. Those of you in your 20’s or younger you hope for big things, big success, you have big dreams, in the end the odds are you will all amount to nothing! Those of you in your 30’s or older the chances are you’re already nothing!
The crowed boos Cyrus
Cyrus: But not me!
FUCK YOU CYRUS…FUCK YOU CYRUS…FUCK YOU CYRUS
Cyrus: I AM THE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!!
Cypress Hill’s trouble hit’s the PA system, sending the crowed into another round of cheers and boos. As the former Heavyweight Champion Joe Santiago steps out on to the ramp, cutting off the Heavyweight champion
Joe Santiago: Before you throw a tissy fit Cyrus and demand a reason for me coming out here after what I pulled at King of the Throne, allow me to congratulate you on being the new Champion. You eared it. For weeks we watch you fly through the ranks, take what you want and leave broken bodies in the wake. My name is also on the list. It has been when I made it public that I couldn’t beat you.
Brenton Cyrus smirks
Joe Santiago: All week I’ve sat at my Miami home, thinking about what I did at King of the Throne. Really laying into myself. All my life, my career I’ve never walked away from anything. When JWF went down, I always brought it back. When I lost championships, I always won them back. I never gave up on anything…until King of the throne.
The crowed responds stunned at the statement
Joe Santiago: And I told myself I could live with the fact of me stepping away at King of the throne. But after a week…the image still haunts me. And sure Carmine you stripped away my rematch here tonight, but by law you cant deny me a championship rematch.
Cyrus begins swearing at Carmine, who all of a sudden has a smirk on his face
Joe Santiago: A rematch that is going to happen at Guilty as Charged!
Cyrus kicks the ropes before telling Santiago to bring it
Joe Santiago: At Guilty as Charged it will be the Thriller vs. Brenton Cyrus for the Heavyweight championship!
The crowed is blown away from the announcement. As Cypress Hill’s Trouble hit’s the PA system.
Joey: I can’t believe it…Santiago is finally going to man up and attempt the unthinkable and take on Brenton Cyrus!
Brian: And the night just started Joey! We got a ton of action here tonight, including are opening bout between The Iceman and Rough Justice…
Backstage, a cameraman catches sight of Rico Sutton walking the halls for his opening match against Keith Cunningham. Rough Justice sees the camera and points to it.
Rico Sutton: You. Walk with me.
The cameraman obeys, hurrying to keep up with the fast-walking Sutton, who speaks without looking at the camera.
Rico Sutton: I expect that a lot of people are going to think I'm pissed off about what happened at King of the Throne. And they'd be right. And seeing as how Carmine doesn't seem willing to give me what I deserve, I'm going to make him see why giving me what I want is the safest course of action.
He approaches a stagehand from behind, and suddenly spins the man around and pulls him in close with his arm, looking as if they're the best of friends, but the positioning of Rico's arm, coupled with the malicious gleam in his eyes, tells us all we need to know that this man is inches away from doing something horrible.
Rico Sutton: Hi there! You know who I am, don't you?
The poor stagehand knows he's in trouble, and is clearly nervous.
Stagehand: Y-yes.
Rico mocks his nerves.
Rico Sutton: Y-yes? What's my name?
Stagehand: Ri-R-Rico-Su-TT-Su-Sutton.
Rico Sutton: Good! Now, what's your name?
Stagehand: J-J-John…
Rico Sutton: J-J-John what?
Stagehand: B-Beaumonde.
Rico Sutton: And what do you do around here J-J-John B-Beaumonde?
Stagehand: S-stagehand. I g-get people their things for their l-locker rooms.
Rico Sutton: So you're a gofer.
The stagehand nods.
Rico Sutton: Not very important in the grand scheme of things, are you?
The stagehand shakes his head.
Rico Sutton: Well, don't worry, Johnny. You get to be a little more important now. See, Carmine feels Chamberlain should get a championship shot tonight instead of me, I mean sure he beat Cyber Punk, but as did I. Yet here we are, I get Iceman and he gets a championship match. Does that seem right to you?
The stagehand shakes his head again.
Rico Sutton: So, I'm going to start at the bottom and work my way up the ladder, taking out whomever I feel like beating the shit out of, John. Unfortunately for you, the first person I feel like beating the shit out of is YOU, John.
The stagehand trembles.
Rico Sutton: Are you scared, John?
A nod from the stagehand.
Rico Sutton: You have someone you care about back home, John?
Stagehand: I... I have a wife... sh-she's pregnant. Please, d--
But Rico tightens his arm around the man's neck, cutting him off.
Rico Sutton: Hup-bup-bup, shush. I want you to look into the camera here, John. Look at it. LOOK AT IT!
The stagehand's terrified eyes look into the camera, a pleading expression plain in them.
Rico Sutton: I want you to look into the camera, and imagine you're looking at your lovely wife. Now, you say what I tell you to say.
With his mouth in the man's ear, he starts whispering instructions to the stagehand, who has tears of fear in his eyes.
Stagehand: J-Jill, I... I'm sorry. I'm sorry I... that I'm not going to be able to work for a while, be... because Rico Sutton was wr-wronged by C-Carmine Vestieri, and he... he won't give M-Mr. Sutton what he wants. S-so I'm sorry that ... that Carmine Vestieri is a s-self-centered egomaniac who... who won't listen to his top draw. I'm sorry, Jill.
Rico grins, and with his free hand, tousles the man's hair.
Rico Sutton: That's good, that's good. That's a good boy, Johnny. Now. Look at her again, John.
Still trembling, the man does so, looking into the camera again.
Rico Sutton: Tell her... tell her it's going to be all right.
The stagehand licks his dry lips, and starts to do so.
Stagehand: It... it's... it's going to be all ri--
Rico Sutton: WRONG!
Without warning, Rico suddenly pivots and with the arm around the man's neck, drives him skull-first into the nearest wall. The stagehand collapses, going utterly limp. Rico grabs him by the hair and picks him back up, and stares at the slack, unconscious man's face. Blood is starting to pour from the split on his scalp.
Rico Sutton sneers and slams him face-first into the floor, over and over and over. Blood splatters from the point of impact, pooling under the man's face, which is now a misshapen mass of flesh. He smears the blood onto his hands and then lets the stagehand lie still as he rises, staring into the camera. He raises his bloody hands.
Rico Sutton: This blood, Carmine, is on your hands. I'm going to work my way up the ladder until I get to Management, doing this exact same thing... and I may just start in on their families as well.
He smiles.
Rico Sutton: Now! Let's go beat Iceman to a pulp!!
The camera watches him leave as RA - Do You Call My Name Without the beginning hits over the PA System and Rico Sutton steps out on to the stage. Rico looks down upon the audience as he begins to slowly strut his way down the ramp. A few fans near ringside try to touch the man. He makes his way into the ring and makes his way over to the far turnbuckle and climbs it as he merely stands. The crowd reaches a fevered pitch as flashing lights consume the ring, the fans taking their pictures of the Rough Justice superstar. After a few moments he steps down from the turnbuckle
Marissa Johnson: It is time for are opening bout of the night, Introducing first healing from San Juan Puerto Rico…The Dealer of Rough Justice…RICO SUTTON!!!
The crowd is going crazy with mixed reactions but mostly cheers as the lights start glowing and flashing white and red while "Blow" by LAtreyu starts bursting through the speakers. A tall dark figure wearing a White and Blue hooded tee shirt slowly makes his way up through the stage via stage lift as a strong white light glows from under him, showing him as a silhouette to the crowd. The figure has his head down and slowly looks up before turning around into the limelight and brushing the hood off his head, revealing it to be the Iceman, Keith Cunningham. Keith then looks around at the crowd with a stone cold stare on his face as he looks around at the fans in the arena. He then goes to the center of the ramp and cocks his head up in the air as if smelling fresh blood, causing red pyro to go off behind him. He then starts his way down the ramp and continues to stare dead into the ring with intensity that no one can read from his face as some of the fans try to get him to shake their hand. Getting himself into his business stature, he starts staring around with an evil statuesque glare, getting more and more fired up before charging straight to the ring. Sliding halfway through the ring, he lands in the center on his knees, the stare completely glued on his face as he pans the crowd. The Iceman then gets up and stands at the center of the ring as the crowd continues to cheer and slightly jeer for the massive monster. Slowly, his head turns towards the stage as he awaits his opponent, not moving an inch as he waits.
Marissa Johnson: Introducing next his challenger for tonight healing from London England, making his Direct Hit debut…GIVE IT UP FOR KEITH THE ICEMAN CUNNINGHAM!!!
Iceman and Rico start off the match locking up traditionally in the center of the ring. Rico quickly ducks under Keith's arm after the lock up, twisting it into in a hammer lock. Cunningham reaches out with his other arm, panic stricken, but his training steps in and he drops to his knees, throwing Rico over his back. Sutton lands hard on the mat, and Cunningham expertly switches right into a chin lock, pushing his knee into Rico’s neck as he yanks back on his face. After a few seconds with the hold locked in, the fans get behind Rico to speed up the match if nothing else, and Rico slowly works his way up to his feet.
Sutton throws a couple huge elbows into Iceman's face, which buys him some room. Rico then bounces off the ropes and takes him down with a big shoulder block. Rico springs back up and measures up Cunningham as he gets up to his feet. Sutton kicks Cunningham in the gut and goes for a spike DDT, but Keith calls the move coming up and, using his shoulder, he drives Rico over to the ropes and threw them! Rico Sutton lands hard on the outside, and as soon as he gets back up to his feet, Cunningham leaps over the ropes and hits Rico Sutton with a cross body!
The crowd shows their appreciation of the big man's display of agility, but Cunningham is all business, and he quickly gets up. Iceman sends Sutton into the ring, but hesitates to long to follow, and when he does, Rico runs off the ropes with a baseball slide kick. Cunningham flies backwards and slams into guard rail—clutching his back in pain afterwards. Back in the ring, Rico shakes the cobwebs out of his head and goes back to the outside of the ring to keep the pressure on Keith Cunningham. He slams Keith's head into the guard rail and then throws him back into the ring. Cunningham lies in the ring, catching his breath, but Rico isn’t going to let him get any rest. He hops on the apron and waits for Keith to get up and he leans over the ropes and grabs Rico. He bounces his head off the top rope and Cunningham goes flying onto the mat.
Rico Sutton gets back into the ring and circles the former North American Champion. He waits for Keith to stand and Rico attempts a supplex but Cunningham drops to his knees and hits Rico in the stomach a few times and Sutton drops to one knee. With quick reflexes, Iceman grabs Rico’s head and plants him with a quick DDT. Iceman goes for the cover and only gets a two count. He grabs one of Rico’s legs and locks in a single leg Boston crab and Rico Sutton hollers in pain. Rico is trying to get to the ropes but Cunningham pulls him back to the center of the ring. He arches his back and applies more pressure to the hold and the ref asks Sutton if he wants to quit. Rico screams ‘NO!’ and he claws his way towards the bottom rope. He touches it barely and then leaps forward and grabs the rope. The crowd boos and Iceman lets go of the hold.
Rico Sutton grabs his leg as he tries to help himself up with the ropes. Cunningham runs towards Sutton and tries to hit a running knee to Rico’s face but Sutton moves and Cunningham bounces his leg off the second rope and falls to the mat. Rico Sutton walks backwards, limping, and stalks The Iceman. Cunningham gets to his feet and Rico quickly turns him around and puts Cunningham between his legs. With all the strength he can muster on his one bad leg, he plants Cunningham with the Rough Justice and quickly falls onto Keith Cunningham. The ref counts the pinfall and the crowd cheers.
Rico rolls off of The iceman and looks up at the ramp, motioning for the Championship to be around his waist.
Marissa Johnson: Here is you winner…RICO SUTTON!!!
The EastTron begins playing an air raid siren, as several armored off-duty police officers with riot gear surround the ringside area. The crowd starts booing already as they see the new set of Salvation’s Sins in the ring, and the booing only gets louder and more hostile as Save Me by Burning Halo starts playing.
The No Limit Champion himself appears at the top of the ramp, wearing the classiest suit, smirking as he adjusts his lapels and smoothes down his tie. He grins at the crowd, then steps out of the way as the garbage starts to fly. He signals to the back, and another group of riot cops come out to flank him, raising their riot shields as he makes his way to the ring, their shields deflecting the rain of garbage.
Chuck Matthews rolls into the ring, grinning as he holds his championship in the air to a loud chorus of boos.
Chuck Matthews: That's right, ladies and gents, it's finally here, the first and official Salvation‘s Confessions! The only true reality check in professional wrestling, featuring the Last Full Measure himself, Yours Truly, Chuck Matthews.
Major boos. Chuck waits for them to subside, which takes at least two minutes, as the crowd is so loud it's hard to hear yourself think.
Chuck Matthews: You know, it's weird. Carmine Vestieri, our, (ahem) boss, likes to say he's making Salvation’s life hell, that he can do whatever he likes, and yet, he didn’t stop me from hosting my little segment here, did he?
He smirks at the crowd, and then points around ringside.
Chuck Matthews: You humanoids notice anything missing? Notice something that used to be there, but isn't anymore?
He walks over to the ropes and leans through them, pointing at the apron. He points to the nearest cameraman on the floor.
Chuck Matthews: You, camera monkey, get a shot of this.
The camera obligingly gets a shot of the black, blank ring apron.
Chuck Matthews: You folks might have noticed that the ring aprons usually sport some advertisement from one of our sponsors. Microsoft XBox 360, Red Bull, that sort of thing. Also, monkey boy, get a shot of that barricade.
The camera turns around to show the barricade, or what we can see of it between the riot cops. Likewise, blank and black.
Chuck Matthews: We used to have posters and banners there from some of our other sponsors. Axe Body Spray, Gold's Gym, et cetera.
The camera turns back to the grinning Matthews.
Chuck Matthews: Is it settling in yet? Direct Hit has started losing its sponsors. Not all of them. We've still got some of our sponsors, but quite a few of our major sponsors have dropped us. And you know why that is?
The camera zooms in on him.
Chuck Matthews: It's because of me. Because of Salvation
The crowd starts booing.
Chuck Matthews: I've been saying it for weeks. Salvation has a lot more influence in the business world than Carmine likes to think. When he started behaving like legally binding contracts don't apply to him, that he can do whatever he likes without regards to said contracts, I started making some calls. And thanks to me, we've now lost over half our sponsors.
A fan in the crowd shouts something, which isn't picked up by the mics. Chuck turns toward him.
Chuck Matthews: What? Damn right I'm killing the company. See, Carmine thinks he can do whatever he wants without repercussions. He's been making life difficult for everybody -- he's lining up contenders against champions who are still banged up, he’s aiming to rip these championships away from the only people you come to watch!
He leans against the ropes, looking as casual as can be, despite the booing he's still getting.
Chuck Matthews: I know he's going to come out at some point -- probably later tonight -- to offer a rebuttal, and say something to the contrary. Make more excuses, blame it on his wife. But Carmine, we didn’t steal her in the first place…Havoc and the Asylum did. We just inherited her from them. You should be mad at us, if anything we did you a favor. If it wasn’t for Salvation Jessica would have appeared in a bad Goth porn. You should be thanking us Carmine, not punishing us
He rubs his head
Chuck Matthews: Carmine believes his action is for the better brand. That he’s some sort of hero. But all he is doing is wrapping the knose tighter around the East’s throat. Look, it's simple. The more you needlessly complicate Salvation’s career, Carmine, the more were going to complicate the operation of this company. Staff will continue to be threatened and violently assaulted. Sponsors will continue to drop, and I will do everything in my considerable influence to be an obstacle to signing new ones.
He smiles.
Chuck Matthews: The world is a lot bigger than just this company you've found yourself in command of, Carmine, and outside this company, you're not as important as you think. And thanks to me…
He points around at the empty-of-ads barricades and ring aprons.
Chuck Matthews: You've now found that out.
He leans over the ropes, looking directly into the hard camera.
Chuck Matthews: This has been your Sin…TIME TO CONFESS TO IT!
He drops the microphone and holds his No Limit Championship, to general booing, and smirks as he leaves up the ramp, a group of riot cops flanking him to deflect the fresh rain of garbage the follows him as Save Me by Burning Halo accompanies his exit.
Joey: A stern warning to Carmine from the No Limit Champion
Brian: Yes sir, but lets not forget if Chuck defend the No Limit Championship five straight times, he would be inclined to a shot at the Heavyweight champion who at the moment happens to be Brenton Cyrus
"Undisputed" by Ludacris hits the P.A. System and the crowd goes into a frenzy for The Prodigy. Anthony walks past the curtains and walks down the ramp beating his chest then lets out a monstrous roar as he flexes for the fans. He continues to walk down the ramp and pounds fists with fans. When he reaches the end of the ramp Anthony slides into the ring and does his trademarked "Resurrection" pose as he waits for Alex Mark to show up.
Marissa Johnson: It is no time for the Jr. Heavyweight Championship match, introducing first the Challenger…Anthony Bennett!!!
The lights go out, enveloping the arena in darkness. "JR" flashes repeatedly for two seconds before fading.
"OOOH WAH AH AH AH!!!"
The opening to "Down With the Sickness" begins before being chopped in to 50 Cent's "Many Men", blasts throughout the arenas p.a. system. Fireworks blast on the stage as Alex Mark step out from behind the curtain, wearing his ring attire underneath a shiny, red hooded vest. His patented AM logo is on the back as he turns to face the tron, spreading his arms out, palms to the ceiling. he then spins real fast, his face somewhat hidden beneath the hood.
Marissa Johnson: Introducing next, the Jr. Heavyweight Champion of the world…GIVE IT UP FOR ALEX YOUNGBLOOD MARK
He soaks in the cheers and boos as he points to the sides of the ramp talking shit, and flashing that patented shit eating grin. He then struts to the ring, sliding in as he reaches the mat. He then walks to the turnbuckle, raising his right arm, his hand in a fist, The Rock-esque. He then jumps down and does a spin in the middle of the ring, again with his arms stretched straight out, plams up, as if soaking in the reaction. He then flips the hood from his head, and takes off the vest, handing the object to the ring announcer. Alex then unclips the Jr. Heavyweight championship from his waist, and holds it up in front of Bennet. Alex then hands the title to the ref, and leans against the turnbuckle.
The ref holds up the title, turning in a circle before handing it to the timekeeper and signalling for the bell. Alex and Anthony circle each other as Alex talks trash to him, and Bennet responds by talking back. Alex suddenly lunges at Bennet, and takes him down by the legs. Anthony quickly rolls to his feet, as does Alex before they both lock up in the centre of the ring. Alex manages to wrestle Bennet into a headlock. Anthony pushes Alex off the ropes, and sends him flying into the far ropes. Alex rebounds, and Bennet drops him with an arm drag into an arm bar! Bennet twists Alex's arm, but Alex quickly grabs the bottom rope. Bennet lets go, and Alex quickly rolls out the ring to recover.
Joey: Brian, you have to wonder what kind of physical condition Alex Mark is after that hell in a cell match on Sunday.
Brian: As long as Cyrus is still champ, I don’t see a problem with Salvation.
Joey: Thats not what I asked Br-
Brian: Quiet, you.
As Alex is recovering, the ref begins counting.

Shoulder up. Bennet stays on the attack, picking up Alex before whipping him off the ropes, and catching him with a devestating clothesline. Bennet then taunts to the crowd before picking up Alex again. He kicks him in the gut before running to the far ropes and bouncing off them, and nailing Alex with a bulldog! Bennet quickly climbs to his feet, and bounces off the far ropes again, this time looking to nail a legdrop, but Young Blood manages to roll out the way, and Bennet hits the mat. Alex regains himself, and slowly begins to get to his feet as does Bennet, a little bit quicker than him. Bennet gets to his feet and walks over to Alex and grabs him by the head. Alex manages to poke Bennet in the eye, before dropping him with a perfectly excuted drop kick. Both men are down as the ref begins to count.

Bennet manages to block a punch, and nail Alex with a hard headbutt. Alex falls off of Bennet, and Bennet rolls to his feet, and grabs Alex by the legs. He then trys to turn Young Blood over, but Alex resists, so Bennet falls back, and slingshots Alex into the turnbuckle! But somehow, Alex manages to grab onto the turnbuckle, and plant his feet on the top rope. Bennet takes a breather, thinking he hurt Young Blood, Alex leaps off and nails Bennet with a moonsault! Alex falls down on top of Bennet and the ref gets in position!

THR-NO!
Joey: How close was that!
Bennet just manages to kick out, and Alex slams his hand on the mat. Alex rolls to his feet, before putting Bennets arm horizontal from his body, and stomping it. Alex continues to stomp Bennet methodically, stomping on each and every part of his body! Alex then lifts Bennet to his feet, and whips him off the ropes, and as he rebounds Alex hits him with a quick kick to the gut, and twists him into the reverse DDT position.
Joey: I think we know what Alex Mark is planning!
Brian: I mean, who doesnt?
Alex prepares to nail the Equalizer on Bennet, but Anthony twists under Alex, and nails him with a huge T-Bone suplex! Both men are down, and both begin slowly climbing to their feet. Both men get to their feet at about the same time, and Alex rushes at Bennet, but Bennet ducks under Young Blood's clothesline attempt, and drops him with a devestating spear! Anthony hooks the leg!

THR-NO!
Alex manages to shoot his shoulder off the canvas just before the three count. Bennet rolls off of Alex, exhausted. Bennet slowly gets up, heaving Alex to his feet, before whipping him into the turnbuckle. Bennet then charges at Alex, but Alex moves out the way, and Bennet connects with the turnbuckle. Bennet staggers out of the turnbuckle, and Alex grabs him and nails the Equalizer!! Alex collapses on top of Bennet, and the ref begins the count!
ONE

THREE!
Joey: I dont believe it, Alex Mark has retained his Jr. Heavyweight title once again!
Brian: Ya dont say!
Alex slowly gets to his feet, and snatches the Jr. Heavyweight title away from the ref. Young Blood motions something toward the ceiling, and once again a noose begins to descend. Alex heaves up the defeated Prodigy, and wraps the noose around Tony‘s neck.
Joey: Somebody stop this! Anyone!
Brian: I'm sure as hell not gonna.
Joey: Someone...Well if you're not Brian, I will!
Brian: It's your funeral.
Joey gets up out of his seat, and picks up a steel chair at ringside. He slides awkwardly in the ring and charges at Alex, chair raised, but Young Blood ducks it, and kicks him in the gut! Joey drops the chair, Alex twists him into a reverse DDT position, and nails him with the Equalizer onto the chair!! Alex stares angrily down at Joey, and then shoots Brian a look, who almost shits his pants. Young Blood then heaves up Joey, and drops him with Insult to Injury onto the chair! Alex then picks up the chair, and slams it into Bennett’s head. Benet begins to bleed as does Joey. Young Blood then gives the sign to host Tony in the air over the ring
A camera feed comes on backstage, with interviewer Oscar Latino staring at the camera. As the feed comes in, he's clearly just been talking with the cameraman.
Oscar: ...and you saw him do this?
Cameraman: He made me tape it, man.
Oscar: Geeze, and I thought the guy was bad enough bef-- there he is!
The camera turns and catches sight of Rico Sutton, stalking around the halls. Word of his assault on the stagehand hasn't yet made the rounds backstage yet, but the hall is deserted apart from Rico, Oscar, and the cameraman.
Oscar: Mr. Sutton!
Cameraman: Hey! Wait, don't get his attention--
But the interviewer hurries over to Rico, and the cameraman catches up with a sigh. Rico turns bemusedly to Oscar, but then notes the cameraman.
Oscar: Mr. Sutton, I've just received word that you physically assaulted one of our backstage technicians earlier tonight. Is this connected in anyway with Chamberlain getting the nod over you?
But Rico is still looking at the cameraman. He smiles. It's the sort of smile you see on the cheerful sociopath serial-killer just before he rips your heart out.
Rico Sutton: You look familiar... Ah! You're the guy who saw my little display earlier tonight! Told Oscar here all about it did you?
Cameraman: Yeah…
Oscar: I'm told that you're looking to send a message to Carmine. Is that message that you want a solo shot at Cyrus?
The friendly serial-killer smile on Rico's face vanishes, and his eyes turn coldly to Oscar, who seems to realize that he may have pushed the wrong button.
Rico Sutton: Let's get something straight. That World Heavyweight Championship belongs to me. What happened in London could have gone either way, and if Carmine knew how to keep a leash on his bitch, I would be standing here as Heavyweight Champion, all I want now is a little compensation, I want a rematch
His hand grips Oscar's microphone, but does so by grabbing the man's wrist. Clearly visible on the hand is the blood of the stagehand from earlier. Oscar tries to pull his wrist back, but Rico's grip is like iron.
Rico Sutton: Carmine, however, wants to play games with me. I don't know whether he's still pissed off 'cuz I didn‘t just lay down last Sunday, or if he's just drunk from a night with Jessica, but nobody pushes Rico Sutton around. Since he doesn't want to give me what I want, I'm making it clear what the consequences are.
Oscar is a tad nervous now, though he's trying not to show it.
Oscar: What are those consequences?
Rico Sutton: This.
He hauls the man toward him by the wrist and slams his bandaged forehead into Oscar's nose. There's a crunch, and Oscar screams, dropping his microphone and clutching his broken nose as blood gushes out of it. Rico picks up the microphone and slams it into Oscar's temple. The interviewer goes down hard, going into the fetal position, trying to cover up. As he does, Rico looms over him, blood coming from his own forehead, as his injuries from King of the Throne open up again.
Rico Sutton just crouches and uses the mic as a bludgeon as he just relentlessly pummels Oscar, over and over, before he tosses it away. He turns Oscar onto his stomach, twisting his legs into a pretzel around his own leg, then grabbing hold of the interviewer's wrists, pulling him up. He places his free foot to the back of the man's head.
Oscar: ...agh...NO--
BAM. Rico curb-stomps him into the floor. Oscar goes still, blood paddling under his broken nose. He rolls the man over, and smears the blood from his face onto his already bloodied hands. He stands, looking into the camera, blood trickling down his face from his re-opened injuries.
Rico Sutton: That's three counting Keith, Carmine. It'll only get worse from here.
He steps over Oscar's body and disappears down the hall.
Marissa Johnson: Are next bout of the night is for the Universal Tag-Team Championships…Introducing first the challenger for tonight, he is the former Jr. Heavyweight Champion…TAPIDO DELEVEGA!!
The lights flash red and yellow and Tapido comes down to the ring. He slaps some of the fans hands with the free hand and then he slides into the ring.
Marissa Johnson: And Introducing his partner for tonight’s championship match, lets hear it for DARK TIGER!!!
The lights go out and 37 Stitches by Drowning Pool plays and after the light come on, Dark Tiger is standing there in the ring behind his opponent.

Bury your desires.
Aberrations fill your head
You need a place to hide

Brenton Cyrus emerges from the backstage area head pointed down as he slowly walks down the ramp
When your world’s come crashing down
I want to relive.
(Your god ain't looking down on me!)
I’m not Jesus
Jesus wasn’t there!
You confess it all away
But it’s only shit to me
(Your god ain't looking down on me!)
I’m not Jesus
I will not forgive!
Cyrus enters the ring and climbs to the top rope. He does his Jesus Christ pose as fireworks go of behind him, shaped like a crucifix
No I won’t!
No I won’t.
I thought you were a good man
I thought you talked to god.
You hippocratic, messianic, and child abusing-turned-satanic.

Both teams stand in the ring, staring across at each other. Chuck and Delevega start the match off. Chuck circles Delevega and then the two men lock up.

He moves slowly out of the corner and then charges back in, but Tapido catches him with a boot to the face. Tapido leaps off looking for a double axe handle but Chuck leaps and nails him with a dropkick to the gut, causing Tapido to fall to the mat, winded. Chuck quickly pins him.

Chuck Matthews quickly Irish whips Delevega as hard as he can, right into a massive lariat from Cyrus. Tapido’s head nearly comes right off and he looks to be knocked out cold. Chuck exits the ring and Cyrus goes to work. The crowd starts up a chant for Tapido, chanting
DELEVEGA! DELEVEGA! DELEVEGA! Brenton Cyrus just looks around in to the crowd and laughs.
Cyrus gets Tapido up and shoots him into the ropes. When he comes back, Brenton lifts him high into the air and plants him with a back body drop. He hits the mat with a thud and Brenton lazilly pins him.

He knees him five or six times before he lifts him up in a vertical supplex. He holds Delevega up in the middle of the ring for a few seconds before he plants him. Tapido Delevega lands hard on his back but stands right back up, dazed as ever. He turns and walks right into a power slam from Cyrus and is pinned.

Marissa Johnson: Here are your winners, and Still Universal Tag-Team champions….SALVATION…BRENTON CYRUS AND CHUCK MATTHEWS
The camera opens and you see it shaking as it runs down the hall to a locker room. The camera stops at the door and the words JOE SANTIAGO are shown to the world. Jasmine Lee is with the cameraman and she puts her finger to her lips to tell the cameraman to be quiet. There is audible mumbling and the cameraman opens the door slightly to try and hear what is being said in the locker room.
????: So people have no idea why your doing this?
Joe Santiago: Of course they don‘t. I told them The Thriller was gonna challenge Brenton to a Heavyweight Championship Match.
????: That’s fucking great, You’re about to stun the World one more time
Santiago: Got that right, this old dog still has a few tricks left in him.
The cameraman backs away from the door as Santiago throws the door open. As Jasmine stands there
Santiago: What are you doing here? Did you hear any of that?
Jasmine: Who were you talking to?
Santiago: Why are you trying to always get in my business? Why is everyone trying to unlock the secret to The Darkest Burning Star? Just sit back and wait for everything to fall into place.
Jasmine shakes her head as Santiago tries to walk away.
Brian: Its now time for are main event of the night. I’m still riding solo, and we have yet to get any word on Joey’s condition. I told the fuck not to be a damn hero!
Marissa Johnson: The following contest is scheduled for one fall… and it is our main event of the evening. And is for the World Heavyweight Championship!
As the lights go down, "Walk" by Pantera begins to play. The lights then change to a golden yellow and fills the arena. Finally, Skye Chamberlain steps through taking in the crowds reaction. He then struts his way down the ramp and walks around the ring allowing the crowed to witness a legend Before he finally slides in and ends with pointing at the lights.

Marissa Johnson holds each contender off to their corners to introduce them other but before she can the words Got Myself a Gun plays through the arena. The fans cheer as loud as they were cheering earlier in the evening. Carmine walks out with a microphone in his hands and he looks down at the ring.
Carmine: Hold on… hold on. Tonight I was thinking about making the Jr. Heavyweight championship be inside a hell in the cell match, but I happened to change my mind at the last second. However, the crew men’s work isn’t going to go unused, oh no. In the ring stand two men who I could care less about. A loud mouthed one hit wonder and a kid rebelling against his parents. So what do I care if they get bloody and beaten down? Look above you, fellas. See that cell? I hope you’re not afraid of cold steel because, tonight, the NLWF Heavyweight championship will be decided in that cell. Lower it, peasants. You both are welcome.
Carmine drops the microphone and Brenton Cyrus looks absolutely furious. He leans over the rope and hollers ‘Fuck you… Carmine Vestieri’ but Skye doesn’t seem to matter much. Once the cage finishes lowering Marissa stands in the middle of the ring.
Marissa Johnson: The following contest, by orders of Carmine Vestieri, is now a Hell in a Cell match. Introducing first, the challenger… Skye Williams!
Skye’s expression doesn’t change one bit as he stares down Brenton Cyrus.
Marissa Johnson: And his opponent…He is the Professional Bastard, the Lord of Salvation and the Heavyweight champion… This is BRENTON CYRUS!
The crowd boos and Cyrus holds up the championship. Marissa leaves the ring and exits through the cell door, which is not locked, and the crowd starts getting ready for this match.
DING!
Cyrus stays in his same position and Skye stays in his same position. The tension between the two is massive and the crowd starts clapping and getting into the match. After a few minutes, the two walk towards each other and get nose to nose with each other. Cyrus looks at Skye and simply says ‘I’m not going to try and pin you right away. I’m going to hurt you and when you’re incapable of moving… that’s when I’ll bury your old ass!’ and with that Cyrus spits in Skye’s face. The crowd boos at that and Skye just smirks and wipes the saliva from his face. He then proceeds to hit Cyrus in the face as hard as ever. This knocks Cyrus down to the ground and Skye mounts him and punches his face over and over again. Cyrus finally throws Chamberlain off of him and he stands to his feet. He rolls out of the ring and searches for a weapon under the ring. He finds a kendo stick and he throws that into the ring. However, Skye happens to catch it and as soon as Cyrus rolls into the ring, Skye takes the stick to the back of Brenton Cyrus’ head.
Brian: My god! Skye is giving it to the Champion…Fuck I wish Joey was here to see this
Skye continues to beat Brenton with the kendo stick until Brenton’s back begins to bleed and the stick breaks. Skye throws it to the side and picks Cyrus up. He looks at him and kicks him square in the jewels and Brenton Cyrus falls to the mat. Skye starts stomping on Brenton’s back repetitively, as we’ve seen much of tonight, and Brenton Cyrus rolls out of the ring. Skye Chamberlain follows him and then throws his face into the hard steel. Skye rakes Brenton’s face into the steel over and over again and he seems to have much pleasure from this. Skye lets go and Brenton’s fingers still grip to the steel and Chamberlain goes to grab the steel steps. Cyrus still holds onto the cage as Chamberlain sets the steps up behind where The Champion stands. Chamberlain tries to grab Brenton’s head but Brenton uses his athleticism to springboard off the cage and hit a reverse DDT on Skye Chamberlain onto the steel steps!
Brenton Cyrus lies on the mat outside, catching his breath, and Skye lies on the steel steps in pain. He grabs his face and Cyrus gets to one knee. He looks under the ring for some weapons and finds a steel chair. Without a second glance, he takes the chair and bashes it into Chamberlain’s head over and over again. The clashing of the chair and the steel steps is loud throughout the arena and Cyrus continues to slam the steel chair down over Chamerlain’s head.
Brenton Cyrus finally stops and Skye has been visibly busted open. Blood slowly trickles down his forehead and Cyrus bends down and takes his finger and takes some of Skye’s blood. He sticks his finger in his mouth and a sight of ecstasy is shown on his face. Skye gets up slowly and uses the cage to bring himself up. Brenton sees this and charges at Skye but Chamberlain ducks and it sends Cyrus into the steel cell. Chamberlain locks his arms around Brenton Cyrus’s waist and hits a German supplex onto the exposed steel steps! Cyrus hollers in pain and Skye just starts chuckling.
Brian: This match has gone from a wrestling match to a brutal fight all thanks to Carmine Vestieri.
Skye looks under the ring for a toy and he pulls out an extremely tall ladder. Skye looks towards the door to exit the cage and he puts the ladder through the door and it falls on the mat outside of the cage. Brenton slowly gets up and Skye looks through the bottom of the ring and finds a table and sets it up on the outside of the ring. He grabs the steel chair Brenton used to bash his skull in with and gets into the ring. Brenton gets into the ring too and the two trade blows. Cyrus tackles Skye into the corner and starts pummeling his face. He looks at the chair in the ring and he goes for it. Skye gets up and as Cyrus turns around, Skye hits him with a vicious European uppercut. The chair goes flying out of Brenton’s hand and Chamberlain whips him off the ropes and runs on the opposite ropes. Skye leaps into the air and hit’s a Busaiku knee kick and that causes Cyrus to flip in mid air. Skye Chamberlain flips Brenton over and goes for the pinfall.

KICKOUT!
Darling sighs and then picks up Cyrus and plants him with a spike DDT onto the steel chair in the ring! Brenton grabs his face and Skye Chamberlain doesn’t seem to be done quite yet. He pushes Cyrus into the corner and then starts climbing above him. Chamberlain stands on the top rope, near where the table was set up, and he pulls Cyrus up with him. He faces Brenton’s back and he leaps off the turnbuckle and puts Brenton through the table with a deadly German Suplex! The crowd is going bananas and the two men lie motionless in the broken rubble on the outside of the ring.
The first person to start moving is Skye and he grabs the ring skirt and then falls back down, blood still flowing from his face. Brenton’s face can now be seen and he is bleeding heavily and no one knows why. On the EastTron there is an Instant Replay which shows a piece of wood shooting into Brenton’s forehead and you can see it sticking out of his head. Cyrus grabs the piece of wood and yanks it out and looks at it. He turns Skye around and starts stabbing him in the face with it and Chamberlain shakes out of it. Cyrus laughs and then throws the piece of wood to the side as they both finally reach their feet. Skye grabs Brenton’s arm and whips him into the steel ring post. Cyrus ricochets and lands on the cage and Skye Chamberlain shows some amazing athleticism and uses a piece of wood to leap and drive both of his knees into Cyrus’ back.
Brian: The cage can be heard breaking but the two don’t really care.
Skye gets to his feet and drags Brenton to the cell door and throws him through it. He rips the door off the cell and throws it onto Brenton’s bleeding back. Brenton crawls towards the barricade to help him get up but Chamberlain smells the blood and he wants to add another championship to his legacy. He picks up the cell door again and slams it on Brenton’s back yet again. Brenton continues to crawl to get up and Skye stomps on his back. He stops and remembers he has a ladder outside of the cell and he goes to grab it. He grabs it and turns around but Brenton has grabbed the steel door and shoves it into Skye’s stomach. Chamberlain doubles over and Cyrus hops onto the outside cage wall and Spiderman crawls closer to Skye Chamberlain. Once he’s close, with Skye still being doubled over, He executes a beautiful moonsault right onto the back of Skye Chamberlain.
The crowd starts standing on their feet in applause of this amazing match and the two lay on top of each other. Cyrus is the first to stir and he grabs the ladder and wraps it around his arm as he starts to climb the cell. He gets half way and Brenton gets to his knees and looks up at what Cyrus is doing. Brenton finally gets to the top of the cell and puts the ladder up there and starts climbing back down. Skye is taking his time getting to his feet and once Brenton gets half way down he grabs the back of Cyrus’s head and lands a reverse Brainbuster! Brenton Cyrus neck looks like it snapped on impact and Skye, not exactly with it, tries to pin Brenton on the outside of the cell. He hears no count and lets up on the pinfall. Cyrus lies there and Skye picks him up and drags him over to the announcer’s tables. He throws him up onto the announcers table and hits him in his bloody face a few times. He gets up on the table and attempts a Powerbomb, but Brenton reverses it into the Re-Awakening through the announcers table! The crowd goes crazy, yet again, and both men lie in the rubble.
Brian: The match has been brutal from the word ‘Go’
As the crowd chants ‘Match Of The Year’ as both men start to stir. Skye Chamberlain gets up first and wobbles around and starts climbing the cell. Brenton gets to and starts climbing it right next to Skye. The two hit each other as they climb and they both almost fall. However, they get to the top and the crowd gets on their feet in anticipation of what is going to happen. Skye looks over the top of the cell and sees how high he is and moves towards the middle. Brenton follows him and hits him in the face. The ladder is towards the edge of the cell on the opposite side and Skye hits Cyrus. They both look towards that ladder and fight towards it. Brenton kicks Skye in his stomach and grabs the ladder. He raises the ladder and brings it down on Skye’s back and this knocks Chamberlain down to his knee.
Brenton backs up and sets the ladder close to the middle of the cage and makes sure it will stay. Skye Chamberlain has gotten to his feet and runs towards Cyrus and hits him with another busiaku knee kick and he flips in mid air, much like he did last time, and lands on the middle section. The section bends a little bit and everyone waits for him to go through the top. Skye smirks and goes to pick Brenton up and finish him off and become champion. Skye picks Brenton up and attempts a Last Ride style power bomb but Cyrus wiggles his way out of it and spins Brenton around. He kicks him in the stomach and lifts him up for a double underhook sit out bomb. The middle of the cage bends some more and everyone’s stomach turns because, soon, someone is going through the top of the cell all the way to the ring mat.
Skye lies on the top of the cell, motionless, and Brenton gets to one knee. He looks at the ladder and a sadistic grin peers through his blood soaked face. He starts climbing the ladder, slowly, as Skye continues to lay motionless on the top of the cell. Brendon looks down on Skye and he stands on the top step of the ladder. The ladder is shaking and Brendon tries to keep his balance. Time seems to stop and Cyrus flips 450 degrees in the air and lands right on Skye Chamberlain. The impact is so much that the top of the cell collapses and both men fly down to the bottom of the mat and THROUGH the ring. The crowd is going crazy and the ref doesn’t know what just happened. A replay is shown on the EasTron and it’s even better the second time around.
The camera zooms in on the hole in the ring and both men lay next to each other. The first person to stir will become NLWF Heavyweight champion, for sure. The ref looks down the hole waiting to make the call and an arm is lifted and goes over the other person. The ref drops down and makes the pinfall…

Marissa Johnson doesn’t know who the winner is, much like all of us, and the referee walks over and tells Marissa who the winner of the match is.
Marissa Johnson: Ladies and Gentlemen… here is your winner….
…
…
…and the STILL NLWF WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…. BRANDON CYRUS!!!!!!
I’m not Jesus plays over the speakers and the fans usually boo him but they cannot do so this time, as both men put on amazing performances. The crowd is on their feet as the cell is raised and EMT’s rush out to help both men. They reach into the hole and pull the NLWF champion out first. The referee hands him the championship and he doesn’t even know where he is. He grabs the championship and EMT’s try to help him out but he doesn’t want their help. He makes his way up the ramp, grasping his championship and mouths FUCK YOU CARMINE
But his hurt celebration is cut short when Cypress Hill’s Trouble cuts in and we watch Joe Santiago stand on the stage looking down at Cyrus, who even after a bloody war stands ready for a fight with the former champion.
Joe Santiago: Congratulations there champ, hell of a battle you just had. And you did it without the aid of Salvation, that has to be a first.
Brenton stands there looking up at Joe Santiago with the championship drape down on the steel
Joe Santiago: The reason I’m cutting your celebration short isn’t just because I don’t respect you. Maybe it is a little. But the reason I am out here is because I feel I didn’t make myself clear earlier tonight. You See I use my rematch clause which we already know is going to happen at Guilty as Charged, but I said it before and Ill say it again…I cant beat you Cyrus…I don’t have the heart to beat you
We watch a sick smile on the face of Brenton, looks very disturbing if you factor in the amount of blood on his face
Joe Santiago: But the people want to see The Thriller…They Want to see the dominating Thriller that ruled years ago. So I present you all with THE THRILLER…and NUMBER ONE CONTENDER FOR THE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP….
Cyrus gives Santiago the finger
Joe Santiago: THE THRILLER…JAKE STUNNER!!!
Wherein Lies Continue by Slipknot hit’s the PA and the crowed goes freaking nuts, if there was a roof on the arena it would have been blown off as Jake Stunner stands next to Joe Santiago wearing THE MODERN DAY THRILLER tee shirt. As Brenton’s face says it all, as he begins throwing a fit as Direct Hit comes to a close…
