Glasgow, SCOTLAND

It's a packed house once again as we get set for another edition of Insurgence. We open the show by looking into the ring for a segment to kick things off tonight. The ring is covered in red carpeting and multi-colored confetti. There’s a cake and some balloons at the side as well. Some chairs are set up in a corner waiting the arrival of some very special guests tonight. Teenage Kicks by Busted plays as Kira Yakamoto and Tanja Michaels walk out in their new tWo shirts. They both smile and wave to the fans as they enter the ring with microphones in hand.

Kira Yakamoto: Good evening, ladies, gentlemen and Henry Lesher!

Henry Lesher: That does it! I’m going up there!

Ricky Simms: Calm down.

Tanja Michaels: Tonight, ladies and gentlemen we have a very special guest! He’s from Las Vegas, Nevada…he weighs in at 220lbs…

Kira Yakamoto: He’s absolutely gorgeous!

Tanja: Ladies and gentlemen, Tommy Purr!

The crowd cheers loudly as “Walk Idiot Walk” by The Hives and Tommy walks out to the Scottish crowd, shaking hands and enjoying the praise he’s receiving. He walks into the ring, and shakes hands with Tanja. He then tries to shake hands with Kira, who much to Tommy’s surprise kisses him on the cheek.

Tommy: So girls, what is this all about?

Tanja: Well Tommy, we just wanted to have a party to celebrate your championship victory. And seeing as you’re here…Tommy Purr, this is your life!

The cheesy music begins to play as things become a little too reminiscent of the classic Rock/Mankind segment from all those years ago. Tommy looks shocked and amused all at once as Kira starts the introductions.

Kira: Our first guest had this to say about you.

Voice: When I first met Tommy, he would’ve been about six or seven. He wasn’t very tall, and was sort of chubby…

The crowd laughs as Tommy looks slightly embarrassed.

Voice: I kept thinking. Jesus, this little pudgy thing will never equal his father. Oh, how I was wrong.

A drumroll starts as Kira begins to speak.

Kira: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Jonathan Starsmore’s tag-team partner and close friend Stevie Morino!

The cheesy music restarts as Stevie Morino walks down to the ring. Tommy is pleased to see his father’s old tag-team partner…but not half as pleased as Tanja is. Tanja jumps up grabs a mike and proceeds to do a force-ten five-star mark-out.

Tanja: Oh my god, it’s you! Wait, wait just here. I need to do something.

Tanja uses her legendary speed to dart out of the ring. She goes to a gym bag and pulls out a small book and a pen. She then runs back into the ring with the items in hand.

Tanja: Can you sign this book for me please?

Stevie smiles and signs an autograph for Tanja as she smiles sweetly and sits down.

Stevie: Tommy, I’ve watched you from the first time you stepped in the ring, and I can honestly I was impressed. Shall I tell you about the first time I saw Tommy train?

Kira: Sure.

Stevie: The guy didn’t know a wristlock from a wristwatch! He wasn’t great, and I was not impressed. Jonathan was, but I guess it’s a father’s thing.

Kira: Was he still cute!?

Stevie: Uh…how would I know?

Kira: Well it’s pretty obvious. Are you blind? Can you see him? Hello? Hello!?

Tanja: I think we better be moving on now…Mr. Morino. If you’d like to sit here?

Tanja directs a confused Stevie to his seat as Kira gets a new card.

Kira: Alright, our next guest had to say this.

Voice: Oh, Tommy’s famous now is he? Well, how wonderful for him. What is he? A wrestler? Well, I dare say his father would be pleased. Although I dread to think what the neighbours would say.

Kira: Please welcome Tommy Purr’s third grade teacher, Mrs. Elizabeth Hardgrove!

The cheesy music plays again as an elderly woman walks out. She appears to be in her seventies and about the same size as Tanja. She looks at her former pupil in pleasant surprise.

Mrs. Hardgrove: Is that you, Thomas? My how you’ve grown. Little Tommy Watanabe. I remember when all the little boys and girls used to pick on you. Now look at you, all big and strong!

Tommy: Why thank you! And you look…well.

Mrs. Hardgrove: Oh, I’m dying inside. Edgar left me last spring. You know, my husband. Say, you must have a pretty, young wife by now. Where is she?

Kira barely managed to bite her lip to stop her from claiming marriage to Tommy. As Tommy blushed in embarrassment.

Tommy: Yes I am married. She’s called Yvonne.

Mrs. Hardrove: I see. Any children?

Tommy: Two kids. But we’re not planning on any more.

Mrs. Hardgrove: I see dear, I see. And how’s your sex life?

The crowd laughs as Tommy looks completely shocked.

Tommy: I…I’d prefer not to answer that.

Kira: Okay, time to move along grandma!

Mrs Hardgerove: Such an ill-mannered young lady. Shouldn’t you be at school?

Kira: It’s night-time!

The old woman just shrugs and walks on.

Kira: And our last guest…

Voice: I’ve known Tommy, like, since forever! He’s totally awesome! Totally!

‘Cause I’m A Blonde by Julie Brown plays as Sarah Darling parades down to the ring before her V.O finishes. Tanja ashamed for the both of them just gets Sarah in the ring and sits her down before Sarah gets anything off her large chest.

Tanja: Well, I guess that wraps things up. Thank you Tommy and…

Kira: Wait! Wait! I wanna say something! Now, Tommy I’ve not discussed this with Tanja. But I wanted to keep this a surprise. Ladies and gentlemen please welcome, our final guest this eveing!

The crowd murmur in confusion as “Delilah” by Mindset starts and Daniel McCoy walks to the ring. Tanja and Tommy look in shock at the elated Kira who walks over to Tommy.

Kira: Thomas, I know Danny and you went your separate ways and that’s cool. But Danny has something to say

Danny almost begins to talk but Tommy stops him by raising his palm in the air.

Tommy: Kira…I appreciate what you’ve done and this wonderful get-together you’ve organised. But I have one question…WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH YOU, YOU SICK BITCH!?!

Kira’s smile suddenly drops and is replaced by a very unhappy expression.

Kira: Tommy…I…I…

Tommy: No, Kira, save it! Damnit, I’ve dealt with some sick people over the years. But one of the last people I would’ve expected to pull this shit off is the little sister to one of my closest friends!

Kira, who in reality is completely innocent and has no idea what’s going on, pleads with Tommy to stay, but he leaves in disgust. Kira then turns to Tanja who also walks away angrily. Kira then starts knocking things down in a fit of rage, that sends the guests rushing for cover. Kira then gets on her knees and just starts weeping.

Henry Lesher: Wow, you’ve seen one Yakamoto cry like a little baby, you’ve seen ‘em all, huh?

We then see the opening credits of the show as "Coming Undone" by Korn starts to play and we see images of The Moose, Rated R, Vigilante, Max Cameron, Xandra, Frank Merritt, Scavenger, Leech, Hoshi Yakamoto, Halloween Jack, 6Pac Dudley, Tommy Purr and Shannon Skanes before we head to ringside where the action is now set to begin, the set from the previous segment already removed.

Scavenger vs. Frank Merritt

"My Girlfriend's Girlfriend" by Type O Negative plays as Scavenger makes his way out onto the stage and the crowd gives him a strong ovation while Shengee Shmelky comes out right after him, carrying the trusty chair in hand. They start down the ramp and then we see Frank Merritt charging out onto the stage, down the ramp and then he gives both Shengee and Scavenger chop blocks to bring them down to the steel ramp. Frank then picks Shengee up and dumps him right off the ramp to the floor below and then turns his attention to Scavenger. He starts putting the boots to Scavenger and then stands him up and places him in a headlock and then gives him a DDT to the steel ramp while referee Bruce Miller races out of the ring calling for the bell to get this match officially started.

Ricky Simms - This fall count anywhere match might be over before it starts.

Henry Lesher - Most Scavenger matches are over before they start.

Frank goes for the pin on Scavenger. 1...2... kick out by Scavenger. Frank then stands Scavenger up and pulls him by the hair down the rest of the ramp. Frank then picks Scavenger up over his shoulder and runs him face first into the steel corner post before slamming him down to the floor. Frank then goes for the pin again. 1...2... Scavenger rolls a shoulder out. Frank stands Scavenger up again and slams his head into the steel guard railing. He then clotheslines Scavenger down to the floor and stands over him with a sadistic smile on his face.

Ricky Simms - The former Xtreme champion hasn't softened his style one bit now that he is a member of EOS.

Henry Lesher - Frank is a true monster.

Frank sees Shengee Shmelky staggering towards ringside and his smile widens. He makes his way over to Shengee, but Shengee catches Frank off guard with a low blow from the chair. Shengee then slams the chair over the head of Frank Merritt to the delight of the crowd, though they appear to be cheering for everyone involved in this match. Shengee then makes his way to a bloodied Scavenger and helps him to his feet. He hands the chair to Scavenger and then Scav makes his way around the ring to Frank Merritt and slams the chair across his back. Scavenger then tosses the chair aside and starts putting the boots to the fallen Merritt. Scavenger then picks Frank up and tosses him over the guard railing and into the aisle between the front rows of fans. Scavenger then climbs onto the railing, then leaps off and lands a double axe handle smash across the back of Frank Merritt. Scavenger then dumps Frank back over the guard railing to ringside before he steps over the guard railing himself.

Ricky Simms - Scavenger really taking over here.

Henry Lesher - We know that will not last.

Scavenger then stands Frank up and takes a thumb to the eye from Frank. Frank then gives Scavenger a knee to the gut and then gives him a bulldog to the floor. Frank then places Scavenger into a camel clutch. Referee Bruce Miller checks for a submission, but Scavenger is unwilling to give up here. Scavenger tries to pull himself up from that position while Frank struggles to hold him down. We then hear "Somebody Told Me" by The Killers and we see Wyatt Gibson making his way onto the stage. Frank looks back and releases Scavenger from his grip, standing up. Wyatt simply stands there and smiles at Frank for a few moments while the crowd starts a "Wyatt sucks" chant. Frank is then blindsided from the side by someone diving from the crowd. It's the same man who has attacked him in previous weeks and tonight he wraps an extension cord around the throat of Frank Merritt and starts to choke him out while we see Shengee looking on and smiling.

Ricky Simms - What the hell?

Henry Lesher - Who is this soon to be dead man anyway?

Frank fades and his eyes shut as the cord strangles him. His attacker then releases him and drapes Scavenger over Frank Merritt. 1...2...3! Scavenger with the win this week, though it can hardly be viewed as that.

Wyatt Gibson - Frank, last week you joined the wrong side. This week, you pay the price for making poor career decisions. At Restricted, you will face this man Fuel and whoever wins that match will then face Hoshi Yakamoto for the Xtreme title that same night. Frank, if you want your title back so badly, you'll have to beat two people to get it.

Wyatt then exits while his music plays again and Shengee helps Scavenger to his feet while Fuel disappears back into the crowd with a smile on his face.

Ricky Simms - So Fuel will take on Frank at Restricted and the winner then faces Hoshi for the Xtreme title. That's huge.

Henry Lesher - That's little more than a cakewalk for Frank, though. He might take them both down and kill Wyatt as an encore.

While Shengee helps Scavenger up and starts leading him towards the back, we look backstage and see Halloween Jack with Ray Dees.

Ray Dees - I understand you have something to say?

Halloween Jack - How long did it take them to bury me after I held the AW title? I am going to get that shot at the titles at Restricted. I am going to show the wrestling world that I am worthy of a rematch and not dark matches like I got tonight.

Ray Dees - That was a tough break.

Halloween Jack - AW, this is your true champion and I will prove it December 3rd at Restricted. The night might be named for Rated R, but every night is Halloween.

Ray Dees - Thanks for your time.

Jack storms off and we head back to the ring.

Pyro vs. Jack Spade

"Crazy Train" by Ozzy Osbourne plays as Jack Spade comes out to a solid ovation from the crowd. He starts making his way down the ramp, but Pyro charges out and looks set to make it two matches out of two where the first person out gets attacked by the second, but Spade hears Pyro coming and turns to greet him. The two start trading punches to the jaw while the crowd cheers. Jack eye gouges Pyeo and then pulls him down the ramp to ringside and then rolls him into the ring before rolling himself into the ring where referee Jon Shocker calls for the bell.

Ricky Simms - Pyro's attack there didn't exactly work out for him.

Henry Lesher - Nothing Pyro does ever works out for him.

Spade stamnds Pyro up, whips him off the ropes and dropkicks him back down to the mat. Jack then goes to the ropes and quickly makes his way to the top and then leaps off, aiming for a flying elbow smash, but Pyro rolls out of the way and Spade hits the mat hard. Pyro then uses the ropes to pull himself to his feet. He turns and gives Spade a big boot to the chest and then gives him a knee drop to the forehead before he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Jack Spade. Pyro has a few words for the referee as he then stands Jack Spade up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a sidewalk slam to the mat. Again, he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Jack Spade.

Ricky Simms - Pyro is really trying to put Spade away fast this week.

Henry Lesher - He can't put anyone away fast. He's lucky if he can put anyone away at all.

Pyro stands Spade up, whips him into the corner buckle and then charges in for a shoulder block, but Jack Spade steps out of the way and Pyro's shoulder hits the steel post. Spade then pulls Pyro out of the corner and gives him a double under hook suplex to the mat. Spade then lands a leg drop across the throat on Pyro and goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Pyro. Spade then stands Pyro up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a backdrop to the mat. Spade then picks Pyro up and gives him a scoop slam to the mat and then lands a knee drop to the chest on Pyro. Spade then lands a series of punches to the mask on Pyro and then stands him up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor.

Ricky Simms - Spade is showing some aggression here after Pyro's attack last week.

Henry Lesher - I'd be mad if Pyro made me look bad too.

Spade drops and rolls out to the floor with Pyro. He then stands Pyro up only to take a thumb to the eye from Pyro and then Pyro gives Jack Spade a face buster to the floor. Pyro then stands Spade up and rolls him into the ring. Pyro then rolls himself into the ring and then gets to his feet. He grabs Jack Spade around the throat, intent on choke slamming Spade here. Pyro stands Spade up, picks him up and Spade headlocks Pyro and uses the ropes as a springboard to DDT Pyro to the mat before rolling him over for the pin. 1...2...3! Jack Spade gets the win this week over Pyro.

Ricky Simms - Great move there by Spade to get the pin. I am impressed.

Henry Lesher - I don't care if you're impressed or not.

Spade leaves the ring and starts for the back while we look backstage to Wyatt Gibson's office. He is with Crystal Braun.

Crystal Braun - I understand you have an announcement for Restricted.

Wyatt Gibson - Indeed I do. You see, I have looked over the old RW shows and I have to say that was an impressive company. Ryan Yorke is a true genius. As such, I would like to announce a tournament that starts next week in honor of the event with his glorious name.

Ricky Simms - Much more of this butt kissing towards Ryan and I am going to throw up.

Wyatt Gibson - Next week eight wrestlers will start a tournament to decide which two wrestlers will compete for the AW and CWA titles on December 3rd. I have decided that The Moose and Halloween Jack belong here as the former champions. Vigilante and Max Cameron belong here because they hate each other. Maybon has earned his position in this tournament with his recent showings. Jack Spade just edged Pyro out there and he gets into this tournament. Hoshi Yakamoto will be fighting to keep the  Xtreme title, so why not throw her into this tournament as well? The eighth spot goes to the returning Parker Davis who has his chance, starting next week, to show why he is main event talent above and beyond that EOS garbage. I would have Frank in there, but I don't like Frank so he's not getting into this tournament.

Crystal Braun - Why the sudden shift against EOS and your bosses?

Wyatt Gibson - Look, when I got this GM job, I figured it was a good deal. As the week wore on, I saw I was only a yes man for the powers that be and I needed to shake things up. I saw that people were biased against the greatness of Rated R and his legacy and I acted as anyone in my position would. I am simply making the wrong things right.

Crystal Braun - It will be interesting to see how this all pans out.

We then head back to the ring.

De'Anton Maybon vs. The Moose

"Creep" by Radiohead plays as Maybon comes out to a loud and mixed reaction from the crowd. He pays no attention to the fans as he makes his way down the ramp and then he stops at ringside and looks towards the roof before he makes his way onto the apron. He then steps through the ropes into the ring and then tests the ropes while his music fades. We then hear "I Feel Alright" by Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers and The Moose makes his way out onto the stage and then makes his way down the ramp towards the ring. Moose looks into the ring at Maybon and then opts to do a full lap around the ring, giving high fives to fans while keeping an eye on Maybon inside the ring. Moose then pulls himself onto the apron and then steps through the ropes into the ring where Maybon greets him with double axe handle smashes across the back before he has a chance to stand up while referee Francis Clarke calls for the bell to get things officially started in this match. Maybon whips Moose off the ropes and then gives him a knee to the ribs and then gives him a swinging neck breaker to the mat and then goes for the early pin. 1...2... kick out by Moose.

Ricky Simms - Maybon starts fast here. What was he looking at up on the roof there?

Henry Lesher - I don't know. There's something up there, but I can't make out what it is. Maybe it's Parker.

Maybon stands Moose up, whips him off the ropes and Moose ducks a clothesline and then gives Maybon a reverse neck breaker to the mat. Moose then gets to his feet and pulls Maybon to the middle of the ring where he quickly applies a figure four leg lock. The referee checks for a submission, but Maybon is unwilling to give up here as the fans start a chant for Moose. Maybon tries to roll the hold over, which will reverse the pressure. He is unable to reverse it on the first try, so he tries for the roll a second time. He is still unable to roll the hold over and the referee is again asking him if he submits. Maybon refuses to submit and then pulls himself towards the rope and manages to snag the bottom rope with his pinky.

Ricky Simms - One finger to get the break for Maybon there.

Henry Lesher - Maybon will defeat Moose here tonight. That's right. You heard it here first.

Maybon pulls himself out of the ring to the floor. Moose is close behind and stands Maybon up and then gives him a series of punches across the face. Maybon then gives Moose a knee to the ribs and follows that up with a head butt and then another. Maybon then picks Moose up and slams him down to the floor. Maybon then stands Moose up and whips him shoulder first into the steel ring steps. Maybon nods a couple of times as he then rolls Moose into the ring before rolling himself into the ring. Maybon goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Moose. Maybon then stands Moose up and whips him through the ropes and right back out to the floor. Maybon then rolls himself back out to the floor as well.

Ricky Simms - Maybon is going to brutal route with this one tonight.

Henry Lesher - I love that. He is one of my personal favorites, despite his hatred for Rated R.

Maybon stands Moose up, tries to whip him into the steel steps, but Moose reverses it and sends Maybon shoulder first into the steel steps instead. Moose then picks Maybon up and runs him shoulder first into the steel corner post, then gives him a power slam to the floor. Moose then stands Maybon up and rolls him into the ring before rolling himself into the ring. Maybon simply rolls himself right back out to the floor and Moose follows.

Ricky Simms - This is turning into a game of cat and mouse.

Henry Lesher - Yeah, but which one is which?

Moose stands Maybon up and the two of them start trading rights and lefts on the floor. Moose gives Maybon a head butt. maybon responds with one of his own. Maybon eye gouges Moose. Moose eye gouges Maybon. They then start trading punches again as Francis Clarke calls for the bell and declares this match a double count out. Moose then picks Maybon up and body slams him to the floor before Moose rolls himself into the ring. He motions to Kosmic Kitty for the microphone and she tosses it into the ring to him.

Moose - Hey, that pisses me off, you know. That was a good fight and the count out ruins it. Maybon and I will meet again. I know that. Now, the real issue is a simple one. It goes beyond my quest for the CWA title as well. See, I know you're watching me. *smiles* I know you've been watching me for weeks. Maybe this will inspire you?

Moose snaps his fingers and a large banner descends from tje roof of the building, one which states in bold letters "Leech is a coward" and shows a crude drawing of Leech with a bag of money over his shoulder.

Moose - See, Leech, you were all proud of yourself for collecting a paycheck when we met a few weeks back, but that's not enough for me and I will make this as personal as I have to. I remember the old CWA, Leech. I remember when we were tag team partners and you back stabbed me. I remember when we were partners numerous times only for you to turn against me because it suited you. Look at the banner Leech. Are you going to sit at home with one night's money and allow me to do this to you every week? I will do this to you every damned week until I get an answer from you, Leech. This goes deeper than money, doesn't it? You just know you can't beat me. Hell, when it comes to courage, I guess I'll have to call out a real man like Ash or maybe Dragon. You're running right now, Leech, but I will get you out here and I will take you apart.

Moose throws the microphone back to Kosmic Kitty and the crowd cheers as he exits the ring and starts for the back. We then look backstage and find Jack Spade with Shawna Miller.

Shawna Miller - Jack, congratulations on your win tonight against Pyro. Next week, you're in the tournament where the two finalists will be awarded a place in the main event at Restricted. What's your opinion on that?

Jack Spade - I didn't come to AW to fight nobodies. I came here to be the champion. Whoever I fight next week will get the best from me. I don't care what I have to do. I will win gold at Restricted. I'll take the titles off both Tommy Purr and Rated R.

Shawna Miller - And your opinion on your opponent tonight?

Jack Spade - Pyro fought well, but I fought better. That's what it takes to be a champion here. Better luck next time for him, I guess.

Jack walks away and we head back to the action

Xandra vs. Max Cameron

"Closer" by Nine Inch Nails plays as Xandra comes out to the cheers of the crowd. She pays them no mind as she makes her way down the ramp, intently concentrating on her match tonight. She stops at ringside and looks towards the stage. Fire erupts from every side of the stage as "Mine Teil" by Rammstein starts to play and Vesuvius comes out, shocking the crowd. He makes his way down the ramp to his woman and he then has a few words for her before she pulls herself onto the apron and then steps through the ropes and into the ring.

Ricky Simms - Vesuvius being out here could alter Max's plans a lot tonight.

Henry Lesher - Max can just lose the match like he usually does and move along. I mean, Ryan has his title back so Max can leave again. Just check out BLPW's show this week and see what he's missing.

Ricky Simms - I believe their show has no set schedule and is currently four days late.

Henry Lesher - Wow, really? How do they stay afloat with that kind of crap going on over there?

Ricky Simms - I have been wondering that myself for years.

As Vesuvius' music fades, we hear the opening of "Hell's Bells" by AC/DC and Max Cameron comes out to loud boos from the crowd. He smiles and soaks them in as he stands on the stage and looks around at the fans. He then makes his way down the ramp and has a few words with Vesuvius when he sees the mountain man standing at ringside. Max then makes his way up the ring steps onto the apron and tells referee Casey Braun to get Vesuvius out of here. She tells Max that he hasn't done anything to warrant throwing him out and Max mumbles to himself as he steps through the ropes and into the ring. The referee calls for the bell and the action is underway as Xandra eye gouges Max. She then whips him into the corner buckle and then gives him a monkey flip from there back to the middle of the ring. Xandra then places Max into a sleeper hold, wasting no time in going for the win on Max tonight. The referee checks for a submission, but Max refuses and we see Vesuvius applauding at ringside.

Ricky Simms - Quick start here for Xandra tonight.

Henry Lesher - Well, it is Max you know.

Max struggles against Xandra's hold on him. He reaches for the ropes as the crowd starts a chant for Xandra. Max reaches back and grabs Xandra by the hair only to be admonished by referee Casey Braun as she pulls his hands off of Xandra. Max then turns and manages to grab the middle rope. The referee forces the break and Max grabs Xandra by the hair and flings her right out to the floor at the feet of Vesuvius. Max then gets to his feet where the referee has a few unkind words for him about his tactics. His explanation is that his hand slipped and he shrugs while an enraged Vesuvius helps Xandra to her feet.

Ricky Simms - Looks like he's picking a fight with V-Man here.

Henry Lesher - You know, he should stick to one at a time. He;s not on Ryan's level yet.

 Xandra rolls herself into the ring only to take a boot choke from max Cameron, who uses the ropes for added leverage and manages a smirk in the direction of Vesuvius, which appears to anger the mountain man further. Max releases the choke before the referee can reach the five count, stands Xandra up and whips her off the ropes and then gives her a shoulder block down to the mat. Max then lands a knee drop to the forehead on Xandra and then goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Xandra. Max stands Xandra up, whips her into the corner buckle and then misses with a shoulder block when she steps out of the way and then she rolls Max into a school boy pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Max Cameron. Xandra then stands Max up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Xandra then climbs the ropes in the corner and waits for Max to stand and turn and then lands a clothesline off the top that brings Max crashing to the floor.

Ricky Simms - Good high impact move there by Xandra.

Henry Lesher - Well, it is just Max she's fighting.

Xandra stands Max up and rolls him into the ring before she rolls herself into the ring and goes for the pin. 1...2... Max reverses it and hooks the tights with one foot on the bottom rope. 1...2...3! Max manages to get the win as the referee missed what he was doing to earn the victory. Max rolls himself out of the ring and takes a vicious clothesline from a charging Vesuvius. Vesuvius then rolls himself into the ring and makes sure Xandra is okay.

Ricky Simms - I guess Vesuvius is good to go.

Henry Lesher - Yeah, but that's just Max.

Ricky Simms - Max took te worst of it after the match, but he did win it. Next week he takes step one towards a possible main event appearance at Restricted.

As Vesuvius helps Xandra out of the ring, we head backstage where Noah Skanes is charging into Wyatt Gibson's office.

Wyatt Gibson - Well, look who finally showed up for a show.

Noah Skanes - You know, Wyatt, your power trip makes no damned sense to me. I own this company and I can fire you on the spot for your recent conduct.

Wyatt Gibson - Noah, do you think I would be acting in this fashion if I didn't have a guaranteed contract? See, you can't get rid of me or I make two thirds of the total money owed to me at once as a penalty for the early dismissal.

Noah Skanes - Last week, my car wouldn't start. The week before, my flight magically ended up nowhere near the event. This week, I had to catch the damned bus because of another problem with my rented car.

Wyatt Gibson - That sounds like a string of bad luck and I don't see you having any proof of any wrong doing.

Noah Skanes - You were in charge of the tickets when I wound up on the wrong flight.

Wyatt Gibson - That is a great story, boss. Now, what else do we have to talk about?

Noah Skanes - It's simple really. At Restricted, you are going to face me inside that ring.

Wyatt Gibson - *suddenly uncomfortable* I am a GM, not a wrestler.

Noah Skanes - December third, you're wrestling for your job. I have someone lined up to take it, too.

Wyatt Gibson - Who?

Noah Skanes - I'll give you a hint. All your base are belong to us.

Wyatt looks horrified as we head back to the ring.

Hoshi Yakamoto vs. Tommy Purr

"Surfing with the Alien" by Joe Satriani plays as Hoshi Yakamoto makes his way out from the back and she starts towards the ring, the crowd cheering her on. She quickly makes her way down the ramp and then high fives fans as she does a lap around the ring. She then jumps onto the apron and then leaps over the top rope into the ring. She then runs to the corner and poses on the second rope for the cheering fans while her music fades. We then hear "Walk Idiot Walk" by The Hives and Tommy Purr starts making his way towards the ring, also getting a very strong reaction from the crowd. Tommy stops at ringside and holds his title belt high towards the fans. He then pulls himself onto the apron and steps through the ropes into the ring. Referee Bruce Miller takes the title belt from Tommy and then calls for the bell to get the action underway. Hoshi and Tommy circle each other and then lock up. Tommy shoves Hoshi back into the ropes and then gives her a hip toss down to the mat and then gives her an arm drag into the corner where he then gives her a series of kicks to the ribs. Tommy then picks Hoshi up over his shoulder and lands a running power slam on her before he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi.

Ricky Simms - Tommy is coming out aggressive in this one tonight.

Henry Lesher - He is an aggressive one, no arguments there. Maybe he hates Hoshi as much as I do?

Ricky Simms - Well, Tommy wasn't happy earlier tonight with that botched reunion inside the ring to open the show, so maybe this is some of that spilling over.

Tommy stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a shoulder block to the mat. Tommy then picks Hoshi up and slams her back down to the mat. Tommy then lands a rolling thunder on the fallen Hoshi and again tries for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi. Tommy then stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and misses with a clothesline when Hoshi manages to hold the rope. Hoshi then lands a rolling thunder on the fallen Tommy and goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Tommy.

Ricky Simms - Hoshi showing some quick thinking there and it almost scored her the upset win.

Henry Lesher - You're the king of almosts.

Hoshi stands Tommy up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a dropkick back to the mat. Hoshi then kips up to her feet and then lands a somersault leg drop across the chest on Tommy and again goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Tommy Purr. Hoshi stands Tommy up, whips him into the corner buckle and then charges straight into a clothesline from Tommy Purr. Tommy then goes to the ropes, jumps to the top and then leaps off, landing a flying elbow smash across the throat on Hoshi before he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi Yakamoto. Tommy stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a backdrop to the mat. He then nods his head towards the crowd and seems ready to end this match.

Ricky Simms - I believe he is going for the finisher already here.

Henry Lesher - It's just Hoshi. How many times do I have to say that?

Hoshi sense she is in trouble and pulls herself out of the ring to the floor. Tommy turns, sees Hoshi left the ring and drops and rolls out of the ring as well. He then chases her, grabs her by the shoulder, turns her around and takes a standing dropkick from Hoshi. Hoshi then gets to her feet quickly and rolls herself back into the ring. Tommy pulls himself up and then rolls himself into the ring as well only to take a baseball slide from Hoshi that sends him right back out to the floor, Hoshi gaining some momentum here. Hoshi then waits for Tommy to stand on the floor and then lands a la plancha on Tommy, sending him back to the floor. Hoshi then gets to her feet and rolls herself back into the ring.

Ricky Simms - Nice comeback by Hoshi here.

Henry Lesher - Not against the AW champion, not tonight.

Tommy gets to his feet and rolls himself into the ring where Hoshi greets him with kicks to the back. She then stands Tommy up, whips him off the ropes and he ducks a clothesline and then delivers the Tommyknocker! He hooks the leg for the pin. 1...2...3! Tommy gets the win in a hard fought match with Hoshi this week.

Ricky Simms - Tommy manages to get himself the win this week over Hoshi.

Henry Lesher - I called it. No one ever listens to me.

Ricky Simms - There is a reason for that, you know.

Backstage we see Frank Merritt tearing the door off its hinges and stepping into Wyatt's office only to find that the GM has snuck out. Frank then turns and comes face to face with Noah Skanes.

Noah Skanes - I know how you feel.

Frank Merritt - No one makes a fool of me. I don't care who they are.

Noah Skanes - I couldn't agree more.

Frank Merritt - I belong in that tournament.

Noah Skanes - You do. How about we make a little deal?

Frank Merritt - What kind of deal?

Noah Skanes - Next week, I give you a match with Rated R. If you beat him, you get into this tournament the following week.

Frank Merritt - IF? Look, next week I'll be ready for anything. Rated R is a dead man.

Noah smiles as Frank walks away and then we head back to the ring for our main event.

Rated R vs. Vigilante

"Walk Over You" by AC/DC plays as Vigilante makes his way out onto the stage where he gets one of the loudest ovations of the night. He walks from one corner of the stage to the other and motions for the crowd to get louder. He then motions towards the back and Moose comes out, the tag titles over his shoulders as he makes his way down the ramp with Vigilante, towards the ring. Vigilante and Moose talk strategy at ringside before Vigilante then rolls himself into the ring and quickly gets to his feet. His music then fades and we hear "I Hate Everything About You" by Three Days Grace and Rated R comes out to what is easily the most negative reaction any wrestler has got tonight. Rated R makes his way down the ramp, holding his CWA title belt high for all of the fans to see and then shows it to Moose at ringside and says one CWA title is worth more than two tag team titles. He then hands his title belt off to the timekeeper and then pulls himself up onto the apron. He steps through the ropes into the ring where Jon Shocker then asks if they are both set to go. He then calls for the bell. Rated R refuses to let go of the top rope and asks for a timeout.

Ricky Simms - What the hell is Ryan doing?

Henry Lesher - He is psyching his opponent out here. It's a great move.

Rated R finally steps away from the ropes and circles Vigilante before moving in for a lock up. Rated R then steps back from it and then reaches for his knee and says it's twisted. Vigilante then lets his guard down and takes a thumb to the eye from Rated R. Rated R then sets Vigilante for and delivers a vertical suplex, then stands him up and gives him a second vertical suplex to the mat. Rated R then two handed chokes the downed Vigilante while smiling at Moose. The referee counts towards a possible disqualification, but Rated R releases on the four count. Rated R then stands Vigilante up, whips him off the ropes and ducks his head for a back drop. Vigilante instead raises a knee and catches Rated R in the chin with it and then gives him a side Russian leg sweep to the mat. Vigilante then chokes the downed champion until the four count, then stands him up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor.

Ricky Simms - These two really don't like each other.

Henry Lesher - What was your first clue?

Rated R gets to his feet and finds himself face to face with The Moose. Rated R backs off a few paces and then lands a knee to the gut on Moose and then sends him face first into the guard railing. Before Rated R has a chance to pat himself on the back for that, Vigilante dives through the ropes and tackles Rated R to the floor where the two of them grapple and exchange punches to the head. Vigilante then gets to his feet and gives Rated R a knife edge chop to the throat, then gives him a knee to the gut and then a DDT to the floor. Vigilante then stands Rated R up and rolls him into the ring.

Ricky Simms - That should do it.

Henry Lesher - No way, Ryan will get up and prove why he's the champ once again.

Vigilante rolls himself into the ring and goes for the pin. 1...2... Rated R gets a foot on the bottom rope. Vigilante slaps the mat, pulls rated R to the middle of the ring and again goes for the pin. 1...2... Rated R rolls a shoulder out. Vigilante stands Rated R up, whips him into the corner buckle and then gives him an arm drag to the middle of the ring where he applies a standing side headlock on Rated R. Rated R is gasping for breath and reaching for the ropes. Rated R backs Vigilante up into the corner and then gives him an elbow to the gut and then another. Rated R then whips Vigilante into the opposite corner before staggering towards him. Vigilante greets Rated R with a big bott to the chest and then gives him a spear to the mat before he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Rated R.

Ricky Simms - I must admit that Ryan is taking quite the beating and keeps going here.

Henry Lesher - Rated R is champ because he is the best. It's that simple.

Vigilante stands Rated R up, whips him off the ropes and misses with a clothesline when Rated R ducks it. Rated R goes for a reverse neck breaker, but Vigilante turns it around and lands the Catch 22 on Rated R and then goes for the pin. 1...2... Max Cameron pulls Vigilante off of Rated R and out of the ring! The referee calls for the bell and it is announced that Vigilante wins by disqualification.

Ricky Simms - Max saved Ryan from being pinned there. In a few short weeks, Vigilante could be the new CWA champ!

Henry Lesher - Not bloody likely.

Security rushes out to break things up as Moose and Vigilante battle Max Cameron while Rated R rolls himself out of the ring and starts to get into the action, though he is far less energetic than the other three are.

Ricky Simms - That brings another edition of Insurgence to a close this week!

Henry Lesher - Thankfully, yes it does.

Ricky Simms - We'll see you next week as we start the tournament towards Restricted!

We fade to black on the four men struggling to beat the hell out of each other in a sea of security personnel.
