June 17, 2006

It's a capacity crowd in Winnipeg, Manitoba for the latest edition of Insurgence. We hear "The Hand That Feeds" by Nine Inch Nails and we see Shannon Skanes making his way towards the ring, a microphone in hand and he doesn't look impressed. He stops at ringside and looks around at the three thousand plus fans all set to listen to him and he nods his head once before he then steps onto the apron and then into the ring.

Shannon Skanes - Sometimes..... sometimes it sucks being me. See, this past couple of weeks saw the departure of Dwayne Kingston. People come and go all the time, but this one left kicking and screaming to anyone who would listen. This comes less than a month after the same thing happened with Simon. Now, this left me very upset and wondering... am I the right man to be leader?

He pauses and the crowd starts a CWA chant. He just silently nods, but doesn't seem to be affected by their words.

Shannon Skanes - See, last week was hard on a few people. Let's talk a little bit about that. When someone goes out screaming, all eyes are on me. How will Shannon handle it? Will he close this company up again? Is this the end for the venerable CWA before it really got going again? I really thought maybe it was time to get out of this business for good.

He lowers the microphone and the crowd boos the idea of losing this company and their chance to see these wrestlers all together again. Shannon smiles.

Shannon Skanes - Of course, that would mean letting the assholes win, wouldn't it? See, tonight is about giving the entire wrestling world outside of our little company... our clique if you will, the finger. Tommy Purr, come on out here.

"Walk Idiot Walk" by The Hives plays as Tommy Purr comes out and makes his way towards the ring, the crowd cheering him on. He looks tired and a little worse for wear as he steps through the ropes and into the ring.

Tommy Purr - What do you want?

Shannon Skanes - Tommy, a lot was said over the past seven days and I want to take the opportunity to say thank you.

Tommy Purr - You're thanking me?

Shannon Skanes - See, leading this company is no easy task and there are always sharks circling and watching, trying to make sure you cannot succeed. You succeeded and for that I thank you.

Tommy Purr - What's the catch?

Shannon Skanes - Oh there is no catch. I just want you to know the work you did last week in allowing me to focus on Terror in the Aisles was admirable. No matter how well you do, there will always be detractors from what you have done and I'm not going to do that here tonight.

Tommy shakes hands with Shannon, but clearly isn't comfortable being out here. He is looking around as if anticipating an attack from somewhere in the crowd.

Shannon Skanes - You're free to go now, Tommy. I have said what I came here to say to you.

Tommy then turns and leaves the ring, still looking for an attacker coming from somewhere. He even looks under the apron after leaving the ring, then heads to the back.

Shannon Skanes - See that? There's more to this company than run ins. There's more to this company than a clique. There's more to this company than anyone can take down, whether they try screaming to the media about it or whether they try to mirror our company and steal whatever they can get from there. See, I have something to say to those people. I am the hardest working son of a bitch in this business and you're going to have to work twice as hard as I do just to catch up with me. I have been in this business since 1984 and no one will ever run me out of it again. I may have a few rude and obnoxious people in that locker room, but we're willing to go to war together and we're willing to do whatever it takes to make this company great. How many of you have that going for you? I can answer that for you. Not a damned one of you do. Now watch as another edition of Insurgence beats the shit out of anything your sorry asses can produce!

Shannon tosses the microphone down and the crowd cheers as he then leaves the ring and heads for the back. We then go to the opening credits with the song "Coming Undone" by Korn playing as we see images of Gerard Angelo, Rated R, Max Cameron, Freak, Himself, Leech, Slim Pickens, Wren SilverPhoenix and 6Pac Dudley before we head to ringside where Henry Lesher and Ricky Simms are all set to call the action this week.

Ricky Simms - That was quite the speech.

Henry Lesher - He's just covering his ass. Everyone knows this company is going down the tubes.

Ricky Simms - Well I heard Dustin Walters has turned into Tom Zenk about this place.

Henry Lesher - Who's Dustin Walters? Was he the janitor?

The Moose vs. Diego Alvarez

"I Feel Alright" by Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers plays as The Moose makes his way towards the ring, his arms raised towards the fans as they cheer him on. He even high fives one kid at ringside who is dressed like Moose and even has a fake goatee attached to his chin. Moose then steps up onto the apron and steps through the ropes into the ring. He tests the ropes and leans back against them while his music fades and then we hear "Clash of the Titans" by Cypress Hill. Diego Alvarez comes out with a smile on his face and the title belt over his shoulder.

Ricky Simms - Great way to start this show on the heels of Shannon's speech.

Henry Lesher - Oh, if that speech makes it to air. This company is so up tight and full of itself. I must agree, though, this is much better than the usual fluff that starts off these shows.

Diego stops at ringside and hands his belt off to the timekeeper and then steps up onto the apron. The camera focusses on the timekeeper again, showing a man in a suit but also wearing a baseball cap and keeping his face hidden from the camera. Diego then climbs onto the apron and steps through the ropes and into the ring. He and Moose stand nose to nose as the bell sounds to get things officially underway. Moose and Diego lock up. Moose shoves him into the corner buckle. Moose then gives Diego a series of knee lifts to the gut and then gives him a spine buster to the mat before going for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Diego.

Ricky Simms - Moose dominating early here. Let's not forget that this guy is the number one contender for the CWA title.

Henry Lesher - How could we forget? They are selling T-shirts about it in the parking lot.

Moose stands Diego up, whips him off the ropes and both men clothesline each other down to the mat. Referee Steve Blake starts counting both men down. On the four count, Diego kips up to his feet. Moose uses the ropes to start pulling himself to his feet, but Diego starts landing kicks to the gut on Moose, then whips him into the corner buckle and follows that up with a sidewalk slam to the mat from there before going for the pin. 1...2... Moose kicks out. Diego then stands Moose up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Diego then waits for Moose to stand before landing a plancha through the ropes and into the guard railing on Moose. The crowd cheers while both men writhe around in pain on the floor. Diego then gets to his feet and rolls himself into the ring. Moose grabs the bottom rope and starts to pull himself into the ring, but Diego lands a baseball slide on him, sending him back to the floor. Diego then stands Moose up and rolls him into the ring before rolling himself back in as well.

Ricky Simms - The defending champ really taking over here.

Henry Lesher - Well, yeah, he has.

Diego stands Moose up and whips him into the corner as the timekeeper stands up and takes off his hat. It's none other than Steffen Krayne and he has a smile on his face.

Ricky Simms - What the hell is this?

Henry Lesher - Looks like Krayne grabbed himself a title belt.

Diego charges at Moose. Moose knees Diego in the ribs and then tosses him over the top rope and out to the floor where Krayne helps him up and then slams the belt across Diego's face before rolling him into the ring. The referee then takes notice of Krayne being the timekeeper and has a few words for him, having been distracted with his telling Moose to keep the action in the ring at the time of the belt shot. Krayne shrugs and claims he's just here to watch while Moose gives Diego the Moosedriver to the mat and then makes the cover for the pin. 1...2...3! Moose wins the Superior title!

Ricky Simms - I think Moose could have defeated Diego without Krayne coming down here.

Henry Lesher - Well, obviously Diego did something to piss Krayne off or else he wouldn't have done that.

While Moose, unaware Krayne clocked Diego, is handed the title belt, we head backstage where Rated R is seen pacing in the locker room. Ray Dees enters the picture.

Ray Dees - Ryan, tonight you get your chance to win back your title.

Rated R - Raymond, you're missing a point here. I never should have lost my title. I played by the rules and was the nice guy for so long and now I have no title. That might be okay for some, but it's not okay for me.

Ray Dees - I don't know how nice you've been. I mean, you haven't exactly made a lot of friends.

Rated R - What are you trying to say?

Ray Dees - Nothing, just that.... you're not very popular.

Rated R - I'm not?

Ray Dees - I've been told that anyway. I don't know anything. You know that.

Rated R - Who told you that?

Ray Dees - No one did. I don't know anything.

Rated R clothesline Ray down to the floor and then puts the boots to him. He then grabs a steel chair, waits Till Ray is up to his hands and knees and then clubs him over the head with the chair before leaving the locker room.

Corina vs. Bombshell

"Riot" by Three Days Grace plays as Corina starts making her way down towards the ring. The crowd gives her a decent ovation as she smiles and waves to them. Her walk towards the ring is then interrupted when she is jumped from behind by Bombshell who gives her a bulldog onto the floor and then slams her face into the guard railing. Bombshell then gives Corina a swinging neck breaker to the floor and then stands over her with her arms raised and a smile on her face while the crowd boos her.

Ricky Simms - She's such a hero, jumping Corina like that.

Henry Lesher - Bombshell is a hero to me, making this match over before it starts like that.

Bombshell then picks Corina up over her shoulder and then runs her spine into the steel corner post before dropping her at ringside. Bombshell then jumps onto the apron and then makes her way up the ropes to the top. Corina slowly stands on the floor and is greeted with a missile dropkick from Bombshell to the forehead that sends Corina back down to the floor. We see that Corina's forehead is bleeding and she's almost out cold. Bombshell stands her up and rolls her into the ring before rolling herself into the ring as well.

Ricky Simms - Corina needs medical attention.

Henry Lesher - I think this is the most entertaining a Glamour Girl has ever been.

Bombshell gets to her feet and stands over Corina while referee Francis Clarke starts counting Corina down. Bombshell boot chokes Corina which stops that count and starts a fuve count on her. Bombshell releases her before the five count and then yawns while telling the camera this really isn't a challenge at all. Bombshell picks Corina up over her shoulder and runs towards the corner buckle. Corina slides off of Bombshell's shoulder and shoves her face first into the corner and then gives her a roll up into a school boy for the pin attempt. 1...2... Bombshell kicks out and Corina rolls herself out of the ring to regroup. Bombshell rolls herself out after Corina, stands her up and takes a thumb to the eye from Corina. Corina then whips Bombshell face first into the steel corner post.

Ricky Simms - Corina is now showing some fight here.

Henry Lesher - I wanted a quick match so I wouldn't have to watch another peach fest and now I am forced to hate them both.

Ricky Simms - Peach fest?

Corina gives Bombshell a fall away slam to the floor and then stands her up and rolls her into the ring before rolling herself back in as well. Corina goes for the pin on Bombshell. 1...2... Bombshell manages to get her foot on the bottom rope. Corina slaps the mat and then checks her forehead, seeing she is losing a lot of blood from the damage Bombshell did earlier. Corina gets to her feet, stands Bombshell up and whips her into the corner buckle. Corina then charges at Bombshell and Bombshell raises her knees, catching Corina in the face with them. Bombshell then gives a reeling Corina the bitch kick and then goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Bombshell gets the win over Corina, but we sense that this thing isn't over yet.

Ricky Simms - Corina put up a valiant fight, but Bombshell gets the win tonight.

Henry Lesher - At least it's over. That is always a good thing.

Hoshi’s walking around backstage after her match, still in her ring attire. Her hair’s tangled and her entire body is drenched in sweat. She rounds a corner and sees Kitty. Kitty sees Hoshi and quickly starts running. Hoshi takes off after her.

Hoshi Yakamoto - Samantha! Wait! I just wanna talk to ya!

Kitty beats Hoshi to the locker room, slams the door then locks it.

Hoshi Yakamoto - Open the door!

Kitty - Go away!

Hoshi Yakamoto – C’mon Sam, I won’t hurt ya.

Kosmic Kitty – Maybe I just don’t want to see you.

Hoshi Yakamoto – I’m not angry at you, for what you did at BiTCHSLAP, y’know that? I’ve calmed down. We’re still buds right? Sam?

Kosmc Kitty – No! It’s not fair! You get all the praise and all the happiness, I get nothing! Nobody likes me! Everyone patronises me!

Hoshi Yakamoto – I don’t patronise you. I like you. Please…please…can we be friends again?

The door opens as Kitty steps out looking very unhappy. But she begins to smile and hugs Hoshi.

Kosmic Kitty – I’m sorry. I don’t want to hurt you, I was just angry. No matter what happens we’ll always be the best of friends.

Hoshi smiles and hugs Kitty back.

Kosmic Kitty – Oh, I baked you a Twinkie, just to show how sorry I am.

Kitty goes back in the room and comes back out a few seconds later, with a Twinkie and gives it Hoshi.

Kosmic Kitty – There ya go buddy.

Hoshi Yakamoto – Thanks for being so understanding.

Kosmic Kitty – Any time.

Hoshi walks away and as she rounds a corner, she takes a bite of the Twinkie. She then smiles to her self and keeps walking. After a few seconds shestops herself and she sways slightly forward grabbing her stomach.

Hoshi Yakamoto - Whoah!

She keeps moving but soon stops once more as she grabs her stomach and her skin goes from her usual golden tan to a much paler tone.

Hoshi Yakamoto - Oh man! Aah!

She starts to scream as she falls to the ground clutching her stomach. She begins screaming for help as tears of pain run down her face. Kitty then walks faux-coyly and looks down at Hoshi.

Hoshi Yakamoto Please…Sam…get…help…aaaaaaggghhh!

Kitty just stands and smirks before turning around and viciously kicks her former friend in the gut before walking away.

Kosmic Kitty – *chuckling* Pffft. The best of friends, yeah right.

The Dojo

The ring is decorated in ornate wood as Haiku is seen on various scraps of paper along the wooden panels. A bespectacled Asian man is stood in the ring dressed in a long robe with a geisha standing nearby. There is also a low lying pewter table set with a fine porcelain teapot some cups and a bonsai tree. As the audience murmur in confusion End Of The World by Loudness starts and the crowd boo furiously.

Henry Lesher – Different week, same people

Ricky Simms – Well this is the first time I’ve seen something like this! You’re not gonna watch?

Henry Lesher – And I should respond to that, when?

Miki, Kira and Takashi walk out. Takashi is dressed in a silk Japanese male gown whilst Miki and Kira are dressed in kimonos. They all walk into the ring as Takashi sits and Miki and Kira stand either side of the behemoth. Takashi pulls a mike from his robe and looks out, disapprovingly, toward the fans.

Yakamoto Takashi – It seem that Canada not as great as it thinks, hmmm?

The crowd boos as we see a sign saying “Takashi fears diet plans!”

Yakamoto Takashi – I am tired of disrespect! I am tired of booing! In my dojo, you learn respect!

The boos intensify as Takashi starts seething with rage.

Yakamoto Takashi – That it! I here tonight to show you true American class. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the ring, from New York City, Veronica DiAtella!

Surfing With The Alien by Joe Satriani begins as Veronica steps out onto the ramp receiving fair few catcalls and whistles and even one sign saying “Ms. DiAtella’s a MILF” walking into the ring she hugs her daughter Kira who seems less than happy about it. Veronica then gives Takashi and Miki a respectful bow.

Ricky Simms – Well…um…wow. So that’s where Hoshi gets her looks.

Henry Lesher – Hey, stop drooling on the announce table!

Veronica DiAtella – I tell ya what, after all these years it’s so great to finally meet you guys! I’ve heard so much about you.

Yakamoto Miki – That’s great…that’s really, really great. But uh, if you don’t mind Ms. DiAtella we’re on a schedule here and I’m sure the people at the network would appreciate us getting down to business.

Veronica DiAtella – Oh. Well, okay.

Yakamoto Takashi – First of all, it have to be said I am a man of great honor and integrity…

Crowd – Bullshit! Bullshit!

Takashi paces the ring, losing his patience.

Takashi Yakamoto – And it seem to me, you have contributed lots to what is current AW. You have two daughters, a niece and a son-in-law all in same company. How you do it?

Veronica DiAtella - Well I guess…

Yakamoto Takashi - *angered* I tell you how you do it! I tell you! By destroying my family. I have to be raised by mother, at thirteen I have to learn to be man of house, all because you couldn’t keep your legs closed. Well let’s see how you do as cripple.

Before Veronica can react Takashi sends her down to the canvas with a fierce clothesline. Miki gets up in Veronica’s face and starts slapping her whilst throwing out a few choice Japanese curse words. Miki signals to Kira who seems shellshocked and torn by the whole situation.

Ricky Simms – Poor Kira’s trapped. On one hand she has a family who’ve helped her reach her potential, but now they’re asking her to take out her own mother.

Henry Lesher - I’d know what I’d do. *starts chanting loudly* Kill the bitch! Kill the bitch! Kill the bitch!

Kira steps out on the apron and grabs a microphone. She then walks back into the ring and looks into her mother’s eyes.

Kira Yakamoto – What’s the matter mom? Does it hurt knowing your precious little daughter, sweet little Kira-chan isn’t gonna help you? Well, you could always get your favourite child to help. But…where is Hoshi? Aww, looks like no-one’s here to help you right? Aww…that’s too bad.

Kira looks right at Miki as the two half-sisters share a sick grin.

Kira Yakamoto – Because I am!

Kira then smacks Miki hard across the face and starts screaming at her. Takashi tosses Veronica out the ring, and a s Kira’s back is turned, Takashi kicks her through the ropes. The crowd boos very loudly as Takashi and Miki stand there proudly. Hoshi finally runs out from the back and glares at Takashi and Miki as she tends to her mother and little sister.

Ricky Simms - It's quite the family gathering in that ring right now.

Henry Lesher - I don't care. I just don't and this show is my personal hell.

Ricky Simms - That makes it worthwhile somehow.

We then look backstage and find Shannon Skanes sitting at his desk when Noah Skanes walks in, a smile on his face.

Shannon Skanes - What are you so happy about?

Noah Skanes - I got a letter delivered to the CWA head office today. I thought you might want to read this.

Shannon opens the letter and starts chuckling.

Shannon Skanes - I'm what's wrong with this company? Boom wrote a letter to head office asking me to resign? Of course, he spelled resign wrong.

Noah Skanes - And in crayon.

Shannon Skanes - It's like I said earlier tonight, people are jealous of this company and apparently, it's mostly people who aren't good enough wrestlers to be in it.

Noah Skanes - Is that your mighty ego talking?

Shannon crumples up the letter.

Shannon Skanes - No, but tonight the wrestling world will see what kind of an ass I can be when I am actually inclined to be one.

Noah Skanes - Meaning?

Shannon smiles, but before explaining any of this to his son, we are taken back to the ring.

Hoshi Yakamoto vs. Max Cameron

"Hell's Bells" by AC/DC plays as Max Cameron comes out and starts towards the ring, the crowd giving him a rather mixed reaction this week. Max stops at ringside and looks over at the timekeeper, making certain it's not Krayne as it was earlier in the match between Diego and Moose. Content that he isn't here, Max jumps onto the apron and then steps through the ropes and into the ring. He then has a few words with referee Joe Davidson while his music fades and we hear "Surfing With the Alien" by Joe Satriani and Hoshi Yakamoto comes out, her face showing the concern she has with what just happened to members of her family.

Ricky Simms - I am surprised she's even coming out for this match after what happened earlier.

Henry Lesher - I am disappointed.

Hoshi paces at ringside for a few moments and then pulls herself onto the apron, then leaps over the top rope into the ring. The bell sounds and Max greets her with a clothesline to the mat and then boot chokes her, using the ropes for added leverage. Max releases the choke, stands Hoshi up and whips her off the ropes and then backdrops her to the mat. Max then picks Hoshi up over his shoulder and gives her a running power slam to the mat and then goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi.

Ricky Simms - Max almost scored the win there on a clearly distracted Hoshi.

Henry Lesher - Whatever it takes to make this match end faster.

Max stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and misses with a clothesline when Hoshi ducks it, then Hoshi gives Max a reverse neckbreaker to the mat and follows that up with a pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Max. Hoshi then stands Max up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a dropkick to the mat. Hoshi then goes to the ropes and makes her way to the top. She then leaps off and misses with a knee drop from there as Max rolls out of the way. Max then quickly gets to his feet and starts putting the boots to Hoshi. Max stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and this time connects with a vicious clothesline. Max then stands over Hoshi and shakes his head, a smile on his face. Max stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a knee to the gut and then a face buster to the mat before he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi.

Ricky Simms - Hoshi is showing no quit this week.

Henry Lesher - Max Cameron stands Hoshi up, whips her into the corner buckle and charges in for a shoulder block only to find no one home as Hoshi steps out of the way. Hoshi then rolls Max into a school boy pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Max. Hoshi then stands Max up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Hoshi then waits till Max gets to his feet before she gives him a baseball slide to the floor. Hoshi then stands Max up and takes a thumb to the eye from Max. Max then slams Hoshi's head into the apron and then picks her up and slams her onto the announce table where he then drills her in the forehead with one of the monitors from the table itself and this causes the referee to call for the bell disqualifying Max.

Ricky Simms - What the hell was that for?

Max Cameron - *grabbing Ricky's headset* I don't really give a damn about this company anymore. Ever since they started passing me over for the flavor of the month.... they can cram it.

Max tosses the headset back to Ricky and the crowd boos Max while he heads to the back. He gives them the finger and continues making his way back to the locker room. We then look backstage and see Wren SilverPhoenix making her way into the arena where Shannon Skanes heads her off.

Wren SilverPhoenix - Well if it isn't the man with no testicles.

Shannon Skanes - I noticed you were associated with Trinity there at Bitchslap.

Wren SilverPhoenix - That's really none of your business.

Shannon Skanes - No, see, that's where you are wrong. It is all my business. As a result, you're suspended one week.

Wren SilverPhoenix - But I have a major match with Nameless tonight!

Shannon Skanes - Not anymore you don't.

Wren SilverPhoenix - You really are an ego tripping jackass.

Shannon Skanes - I have been hearing that a lot lately.

He walks away from her and Noah laughs as he walks by her. She picks up a nearby two by four and thi thinks about going after them, but curses under her breath and leaves the building with the two by four in hand.

S.E.X. vs Delirium

"Stand Up" by Trapt plays as Trinity Holmes and Bullrush come out to resounding boos from the capacity crowd. They walk arm in arm towards the ring, Trinity carrying the tack hammer that did the damage last week to Myst. Trinity twirls it in her hands at ringside and then she places it next to the ring steps before she jumps onto the apron and then leaps over the top rope and into the ring. Their music then fades and we hear "Bleeding Mascara" by Atreyu plays and Freak, Himself comes out with Harmony Fallacia to loud cheers from the crowd.

Ricky Simms - This should be interesting.

Henry Lesher - Only if Trinity tack hammers you next.

Freak jumps onto the apron where Bullrush then clotheslines him back out to the floor. Harmony reaches into the ring and pulls the feet out from under Trinity and pulls her right out of the ring and then the two of them start brawling while Bullrush exits the ring and starts putting the boots to Freak. He then stands Freak up and rolls him into the ring and then rolls himself into the ring, referee Bruce Miller calling for the bell to get this match started.

Ricky Simms - These teams are wasting no time in getting things going here.

Henry Lesher - That might make things interesting. I know Bullrush and Trinity have more talent than most in this company.

Bullrush whips Freak off the ropes and dropkicks him to the mat. Bullrush then gives Freak an elbow smash across the throat on Freak and then goes for the early pin. 1...2... kick out by Freak. Bullrush stands Freak up, whips him into the corner buckle and goes for a hip toss, but Freak blocks it and then gives Bullrush a series of head butts that send him reeling backwards. Freak then gives Bullrush an inverted atomic drop while Trinity whips Harmony into the guard railing outside the ring. Trinity then takes her place in their corner and then reaches for the tag to Bullrush. Freak whips Bullrush off the ropes and Bullrush ducks a clothesline and then gives Freak a knee to the gut before slamming him into Bullrush's corner and tags in Trinity. Trinity leaps over the top rope into the ring and she and Bullrush whip Freak off the ropes and give him a double knife edge chop to the chest. Trinity then applies an ankle lock on Freak. Referee Bruce Miller checks for a submission here.

Ricky Simms - The tag team champions really taking over here.

Henry Lesher - Well, a lot of that has to do with the fact Freak and Harmony both suck.

Freak refuses to submit and the crowd starts a chant for him. Freak reaches for the ropes and manages to pull himself closer and grabs the bottom rope to force the break while Harmony takes her place in the corner. Trinity pulls Freak to his feet and whips him off the ropes and then misses with a dropkick when Freak sidesteps it and then Freak tags in Harmony. Harmony quickly jumps to the top rope and then lands a flying body press on Trinity and goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Trinity Holmes and Harmony pulls her back to her feet, whips her into the corner buckle and then charges straight into a clothesline to the mat from Trinity. We then see Dex and Rex Cooper racing towards the ring. Rex slides into the ring and tackles Trinity while Dex pulls Freak off of the apron and down to the floor. Bruce Miller is forced to call for the bell.

Ricky Simms - The New Age Dogg Pound ruins this tag match this week.

Henry Lesher - I am very thankful for it being over.

While the three teams brawl, we hear "The Hand That Feeds" by Nine Inch Nails and we see Shannon Skanes coming out with a microphone in his hand again.

Shannon Skanes - See, this is what I have come to expect when Trinity and Bullrush are involved. Thing is, I have been watching this from backstage and thinking over what happened to my wife two weeks ago. See, Trinity tack hammers her and Bullrush supports that action? You're both showing signs of siding with little Wren? Guess what? You're both out of work. Welcome to the unemployment line because you're fired. *crowd cheers* Oh and these tag titles are a mess. Dex and Rex Cooper will face any and all comers next week while we name new tag team champions. Of course, this decision was made by the new GM of the show since Phil Castle hasn't been around in weeks. I think you all know him.

"Somebody Told Me" by The Killers starts to play and the crowd cheers as Wyatt Gibson comes out and he smiles for the wrestlers in the ring and the fans throughout the arena.

Wyatt Gibson - Shannon needs a west coast prick to run things for him, so I'm it. You want a match on this show? Ask me first.

Wyatt and Shannon then leave while Wyatt's music plays and security rushes out to break up the melee inside the ring comprised of S.E.X., Delirium and the New Age Dogg Pound. We then look backstage and find Noah Skanes looking through Rated R's gym bag. His sister Ashlee comes in and looks to be unimpressed.

Ashlee Skanes - Ryan will kill you for going through his stuff.

Noah Skanes - Ryan's up to something.

Noah pulls out a piece of paper and his jaw drops.

Ashlee Skanes - What?

Noah Skanes - Dad really needs to see this.

Noah rushes off and Ashlee shakes her head before she then walks away.

Slim Pickens vs Tommy Purr

"Walk Idiot Walk" by The Hives plays as Tommy Purr starts walking towards the ring, the crowd giving him a mixed reaction. He heads to the ring with Mrs. Robinson trailing close behind. He then makes his way around the ring and then steps up onto the apron and then steps through the ropes and into the ring. His music then fades and we hear "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N Roses and we see Slim Pickens making his way out to one of the loudest ovations we have heard so far tonight. He quickly makes his way to ringside, eyes Mrs. Robinson up and then pulls himself onto the apron where he ducks a right hand from Tommy and then shoulder blocks him through the ropes before stepping through the ropes and into the ring, allowing referee Mark Davis to call for the bell and declare this match official.

Ricky Simms - Big match here between two people seen as top contenders for one of the major titles in this company.

Henry Lesher - In your eyes, that's how it is. I see Tommy against another inferior opponent.

Tommy and Slim trade rights and lefts with Slim backing Tommy into the corner. Slim then gives Tommy a knee to the gut and then a double under hook suplex to the mat. Slim then applies a sleeper hold on Tommy. Tommy then snap mares Slim to the mat in order to break the hold and then applies a sleeper of his own. Slim snags the bottom rope with his hand to force the break and then rolls out to the floor to regroup. Tommy gets to his feet and opts to stay inside the ring. Slim paces for a few moments and then makes his way up the ring steps and then steps into the ring. Tommy moves in and takes an eye gouge from Slim. Slim then whips Tommy into the corner buckle and then gives him a shoulder block there. Slim follows that up with a spine buster on Tommy and then goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Tommy Purr.

Ricky Simms - Slim is really doing well here.

Henry Lesher - That won't last. It's Slim.

Slim stands Tommy up, whips him off the ropes and ducks his head for a backdrop. Tommy instead gives Slim a kick to the face and then gives him a side Russian leg sweep to the mat. Tommy then goes to the ropes and makes his way to the top. Slim gets to his feet, turns and takes a missile dropkick from the top by Tommy Purr. Tommy goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Slim Pickens as the crowd start a chant for him. Tommy stands Slim up, whips him into the corner and then moves in for a clothesline on Slim, but Slim moves out of the way and then sends Mark Davis down to the mat with an accidental shoulder block. Mrs. Robinson then climbs onto the apron and calls to Slim. He turns and blocks a handful of salt thrown by Robinson. He then clotheslines her off of the apron and then turns and takes a low blow from Tommy who then quickly delivers the Tommy Knocker on Slim and then goes for the pin while a groggy referee comes to. 1...2...3! Tommy gets the win this week, partly due to Mrs. Robinson. Tommy then exits the ring and helps Mrs. Robinson to her feet.

Ricky Simms - Tommy gets the win, though I don't like how he got it.

Henry Lesher - No one actually cares what you think.

As Tommy leaves the ring victorious, we look outside where Noah Skanes is seen with car keys in his hand. He walks upon Wren who is destroying a black Porsche with a two by four. He looks shocked. Wren smiles.

Wren SilverPhoenix - See this? This is what you get for taking my match away from me. Your precious car ruined.

Noah Skanes - Boy, this is really great work, but....

Max Cameron - MY CAR!!!!

Wren SilverPhoenix - Dammit....

Wren takes off running with Max close behind. Noah then moves along to the next parking space where his red Viper is waiting for him. He whistles to himself as he starts his car and then drives off.

Rated R vs. Gerard Angelo

"I Hate Everything About You" by Three Days Grace plays as Rated R starts for the ring. He pauses at the entrance while the fans cheer him. He shakes his head and looks at the cage now sitting on the ring. He then continues his walk to ringside and then pulls at the wiring on the cage as if to see how strong it is. He then makes his way inside the door and paces inside the cage. "Ink" by Finch plays and we see Gerard Angelo coming out, the AW title belt over his shoulder. He hears the jeers of the crowd as he makes his way towards the cage and Rated R waits patiently in the corner furthest from the door to the cage.

Ricky Simms - We have reached the main event, a rematch from the big upset two weeks ago!

Henry Lesher - I wasn't upset. Ryan is not the man he was a year ago.

Gerard steps into the cage and both men stand face to face, then they both look around as they realize the bell hasn't sounded yet and there in no referee. We then hear "The Hand That Feeds" by Nine Inch Nails and we see Shannon Skanes coming out towards the ring. He has a referee's shirt on and both Rated R and Gerard Angelo look upset with this decision. Shannon steps into the cage and calls for the bell. Rated R and Gerard start trading rights and lefts. Rated R whips Gerard off the ropes and then gives him a dropkick to the mat. Rated R then stands Gerard up and slams his face into the cage before giving him a German suplex to the mat. Rated R then gives Gerard a second German suplex and then holds his shoulders down for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Gerard.

Ricky Simms - Ryan in control of this one so far.

Henry Lesher - Won't last. He's not the man he once was.

Rated R stands Gerard up and whips him face first into the cage. Rated R then picks Gerard up and power slams him to the mat. Rated R then goes for the pin a second time. 1...2... kick out by Gerard. Rated R slaps the mat and accuses Shannon of a slow count. Shannon holds up two fingers and shrugs. Rated R gives the owner the finger and then pulls Gerard to his feet and whips him into the corner. Rated R goes for a shoulder block on Gerard, but Gerard raises his knees and then gives Rated R a clothesline to the mat and then Gerard gives him a knee to the gut followed by a series of elbows to the forehead. Gerard then two handed chokes Rated R on the mat while Shannon looks on and doesn't start a five count.

Ricky Simms - Why is Shannon just watching this?

Henry Lesher - Maybe he's tired of the wimp that Rated R is, too.

Gerard releases the choke, stands Rated R up and whips him off the ropes. He clotheslines Rated R down to the mat and then heads to the ropes. Gerard climbs to the top rope. He leaps off for a five star frog splash, but Rated R rolls out of the way and then pulls the feet out from under Shannon Skanes. Rated R starts wailing away on the AW co-owner and then stands Shannon up and whips him face first into the steel mesh of the cage, then gives him a DDT to the mat. Rated R then steps out of the cage to the floor and grabs the steel ring steps. Gerard holds Shannon steady and Rated R clobbers the owner across the skull with the steps. Gerard smiles and looks to high five Rated R, but Rated R gives him a shot with the steps as well. Rated R then motions to Kosmic Kitty for the microphone and she tosses it in the door to him.

Rated R - See, this is a big day for me and this bastard was planning to ruin it. Shannon, you had better play your cards right. I have an offer from another company, one you found when you looked through MY stuff. That's right, your daughter let me know what was going on. You want to go through my stuff? Go to hell. As far as I am concerned, every damned wrestler in AW can go to hell and I might as well tell these fans the same thing. I had you all behind me for months and that didn't stop this hack Gerry from taking my world title. I am the champion dammit! I will not allow anyone to stand in my way! I don't give a damn about anyone anymore except Sam. She's the only one who has understood.

The camera shows Samantha is smiling, but it is a nervous smile. She doesn't appear to have had any idea what was coming here tonight.

Rated R - I will tell you this. If I am not given the respect I damned well deserve as the greatest star this company or any company has ever seen from this moment forward, I'll be gone somewhere else by July 1st. Make wise choices, Shannon or you'll see this meal ticket in the Bad Lands!

Rated R throws the microphone down and the crowd boos him as he gives both Gerard and Shannon shots to the head with the ring steps. He then exits the ring and starts towards the back while EMTs rush to the ring to attend to the fallen inside the ring.

Henry Lesher - Shannon's a loser of an owner.

Ricky Simms - I can't believe what we just saw.

Henry Lesher - I can. Ryan is back!!!

Rated R poses in the entranceway as the crowd boos him louder with each passing moment. Rated R seems to revel in it and bows to them before he disappears into the back.
