Backstage we see Shannon Skanes entering the building when he is headed off by Wyatt Gibson.

Wyatt Gibson - I don't think you should be here tonight.

Shannon Skanes - You know what, Wyatt? It was kinda cute when you were all assertive with me in the beginning. Now.... you're risking your job and your physical well being. Get out of my way.

Wyatt Gibson - I run the show.

Shannon Skanes - My son runs the company. Now move.

Shannon shoves Wyatt out of the way and makes his way down the corridor while we go to the opening credits to the rune of "Coming Undone" by Korn with images of Moose, Vigilante, Tommy Purr, Gerard Angelo, Nameless, Rated R, Halloween Jack and Vesuvius before we head to ringside where Henry Lesher and Ricky Simms are set to call the action.

Frank Merritt vs. Phoenix

"The Last Day On Earth" by Marilyn Manson plays as Phoenix comes out to a decent pop from the crowd. He high fives a few fans as he makes his way down the ramp, but as he reaches ringside, he is attacked from behind by Frank Merritt who gives him a series of double axe handle smashes across the back. Frank then whips Phoenix shoulder first into the ring steps and then rolls him into the ring. Frank then rolls himself into the ring and referee Bruce Miller calls for the bell.

Ricky Simms - It looks like Phoenix's attempt to prove himself in AW is meeting the brick wall this week.

Henry Lesher - Frank is a monster and no one who challenges him really has much of a chance in there.

Frank stands Phoenix up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a spear to the mat and goes for the pin. 1...2... Phoenix rolls a shoulder out and the crowd starts a chant for the young star. Frank stands Phoenix up, whips him into the corner buckle and then gives him a series of shoulder blocks in the corner. Frank then whips Phoenix into the opposite corner. Phoenix staggers out of the corner and then does a face plant to the mat. Frank Merritt then kneels over Phoenix and tells him to stay out of his business. He screams that he needs to teach him a lesson and that it's his own fault.

Ricky Simms - Frank's choked.

Henry Lesher - He's right. He has to make an example of Phoenix. He has to show everyone why he is the Xtreme champ. He is bringing new respect to that title, elevating it to the same status as those held by Halloween Jack and The Moose.

Frank sets for and delivers the Blunt Trauma and looks out to the crowd. He nods his head and smiles sadistically. He then gives Phoenix a second Blunt Trauma and then goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Frank wins a quick one and Phoenix looks like he is hurt as he lies motionless on the canvas. Frank raises his arms to the boos of the crowd. He shakes his head, turns to the fallen Phoenix and then stands him up for a moment before giving him a third Blunt Trauma. Frank then rolls himself out of the ring to the floor where Destiny is applauding the result. Frank again raises his arms, grabs the Xtreme title off of Destiny's shoulder and then shows it to the camera, asking who dares to try and get it from him.

Ricky Simms - Well, I don't know who will dare to oppose him for that title.

Henry Lesher - He might keep it for years with efforts like that one tonight.

Backstage, we see Rated R enter the building, with Ashlee Skanes staying a few feet behind him. He is approached by Shannon Skanes, who calls out to his daughter.

Shannon Skanes - Ashlee! Come with me, NOW!

Rated R - She's not going to answer you Shannon. Until you agree to my deal, she's mine, and she knows it.

Shannon Skanes - I'm not agreeing to anything until you let her go!

Rated R - Then I keep her. Come on, Ashlee. We'll get you a nice glass of Kool-aid to drink.

Rated R smiles as he pushes past Shannon, into the arena, and Ashlee follows, without so much as glancing at her father.

Vesuvius vs. The Nameless

"Mine Teil" by Rammstein plays as Vesuvius comes out to a strong reaction from the crowd, though it is split between love and hate. He is walked to the ring by both Xandra and Noah Skanes, and he takes his time coming down the ramp as fireworks are lit off from the stage. Vesuvius then makes his way up the ring steps and then steps over the top rope into the ring. Vesuvius then paces inside the ring while his music fades and then we hear "Biledriver" by GWAR and we see The Nameless coming out to loud boos from the crowd. Nameless stands on the stage for a few moments and looks around at the crowd, then starts down the ramp towards the ring.

Ricky Simms - Vesuvius wants to make a name for himself and he has this match with Nameless to do it.

Henry Lesher - Well, he will fail, but he's at least stupid in his efforts.

Nameless makes his way up the ring steps, steps through the ropes into the ring and referee Jon Shocker calls for the bell. The two men lock up. Nameless shoves Vesuvius back into the ropes and then gives him a knee to the gut and then gives him a series of elbows to the spine. Nameless then whips Vesuvius off the ropes and Vesuvius ducks a clothesline and then gives Nameless a reverse neck breaker. Vesuvius then quickly gets to his feet and starts putting the boots to Nameless. Despite the abuse from Vesuvius, Nameless gets to his feet and then starts trading rights and lefts with him. Nameless then gives Vesuvius a head butt, then a series of knife edge chops that back him into the corner buckle. He then tries to whip Vesuvius to the opposite corner, but Vesuvius plants his feet and instead whips Nameless into the corner buckle. Vesuvius then gives Nameless a series of kicks to the ribs and then gives him a hip toss over the top rope and down to the floor.

Ricky Simms - I think I felt the floor shake over here on that one.

Henry Lesher - Hey, at least Vesuvius has an idea of what he needs to do against Nameless. He can't win this one on one inside the ring.

Vesuvius drops and rolls out of the ring to the floor. He then starts in with punches to the side of the head on Nameless. Vesuvius slams Nameless' head into the ring apron and then gives him a vicious knife edge chop to the chest. Nameless then thumbs Vesuvius in the eye, slams his head into the ring apron and then rolls him into the ring before rolling himself into the ring. Nameless stands Vesuvius up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a backdrop to the mat. Nameless then gives Vesuvius a knee drop to the forehead and then goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Vesuvius. Nameless then stands Vesuvius up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a dropkick down to the mat.

Ricky Simms - Nameless moves well for a big man.

Henry Lesher - He's the grim reaper with speed. He's going to be the champion again.

Nameless stands Vesuvius up, whips him into the corner buckle and then walks into a clothesline from Vesuvius. Vesuvius then boot chokes Nameless, using the ropes for added leverage. Vesuvius then stands Nameless up, whips him off the ropes and shoulder blocks him, though Nameless merely staggers and doesn't go down. Both men then clothesline each other to the mat. Referee Jon Shocker starts counting them both down. On the three count, Nameless sits up. Nameless then turns and starts choking the still downed Vesuvius. Vesuvius responds with a thumb to the eye on Nameless and then Vesuvius rolls himself out of the ring to the floor. Nameless follows close behind and starts trading rights and lefts with Vesuvius once again.

Ricky Simms - These two are evenly matched thus far.

Henry Lesher - Well, Nameless wants him to think he is doing well.

Nameless gives Vesuvius a side Russian leg sweep to the floor. Nameless then stands Vesuvius up and rolls him into the ring before rolling himself into the ring. Nameless then looks to the crowd and appears to be setting up the finish to this one. Nameless stands Vesuvius up. Vesuvius then gives Nameless a jawbreaker and then pulls the feet out from under him before turning him over into a Boston Crab. Referee Jon Shocker checks for a submission, but Nameless says nothing inside the ring as usual.

Ricky Simms - Vesuvius trying to wear the former AW champion down.

Henry Lesher - Good luck with that.

Nameless pulls himself up from the mat and walks on his elbows towards the ropes. He then lunges and manages to grab the bottom rope to force a break of the hold. Vesuvius lets him go and turns, stands Nameless up and whips him off the ropes only to have Nameless duck a clothesline. Nameless then gives Vesuvius a German suplex to the mat. Nameless goes for the pin. 1...2... Vesuvius kicks out. Nameless then stands Vesuvius up, whips him right over the top rope to the floor and then drops and rolls himself out to the floor once again.

Ricky Simms - These two giants are taking this to the floor again.

Henry Lesher - I am not complaining.

Nameless stands Vesuvius up and then slams his head into the ring steps. Nameless then picks Vesuvius up and body slams him to the floor, then gives him a leg drop across the throat. Nameless then stands Vesuvius up and whips him shoulder first into the steel corner post. He then turns Vesuvius around and takes a head butt from Vesuvius that seems to stagger both men as the referee reaches the ten count and declares this match a draw.

Ricky Simms - Vesuvius held his own this week against one of the best as he continues his march towards Rated R.

Henry Lesher - The United Front is a weak faction. This result is a fluke.

We see Vigilante lacing up his boots for tonight's action when Crystal Braun enters the picture.

Vigilante - I didn't order a stripper.

Crystal Braun - Vig, I wanted your reaction.

Vigilante - You didn't take your clothes off yet.

Crystal Braun - No, I mean the news about 6Pac.

Vigilante - What?

Crystal Braun - He didn't show up tonight. It seems Total Darkness has him at an unknown location and they did not allow him to be here tonight.

Vigilante - You know, I thought I heard all the stupid reasons for a person to not show up for a match with me, but that's new.

Crystal Braun - You didn't know?

Vigilante - No, but that pisses me off. I'm not just sitting in the locker room tonight.

Vigilante leaves the room and we head back to the ring.

Hoshi Yakamoto vs. Jack Spade

"Crazy Train" by Ozzy Osbourne starts to play as Jack Spade comes out to a solid ovation from the crowd. He starts down the ramp towards the ring and high fives a few fans at ringside before he jumps onto the apron and then leaps over the top rope into the ring. He then tests the ropes while his music fades and we hear "Surfing with the Alien" by Joe Satriani and Hoshi Yakamoto comes out to cheers from the crowd. She poses on stage and blows kisses to fans that are holding signs declaring their love for Hoshi. Hoshi then makes her way down the ramp to the ring, then jumps onto the apron. She waves to the crowd and then steps through the ropes while Bart Phillips takes his place at ringside and referee Casey Braun calls for the bell.

Ricky Simms - Big match up now between two fan favorites.

Henry Lesher - Well, the fact that the Japanese cheer for Hoshi shows their lack of taste in wrestlers.

Ricky Simms - She's kind of from here Doc. I mean, they will cheer for the hometown hero.

Henry Lesher - She's a hero? It's worse than I thought.

Jack and Hoshi lock up in the middle of the ring. Hoshi takes a shove down to the mat from Jack, but springs right back up to her feet. Hoshi then lands a standing dropkick on Jack that sends him backwards. Hoshi then kips up to her feet and then Spade kips up to his as well. They move in for a lock up, but Hoshi ducks under, gives Jack a knee to the ribs and then she gives him a DDT to the mat and then she goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Jack Spade. Hoshi then stands Jack up, whips him off the ropes and lands a lariat on him that takes him down to the mat and then she again goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Jack Spade.

Ricky Simms - That's twice she nearly pinned him early here. Hoshi is fired up tonight.

Henry Lesher - I don't care.

Hoshi stands Spade up, whips him off the ropes and misses with a dropkick as Spade side steps it. Spade then lands a knee drop to the chest on Hoshi. Spade stands her up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a clothesline down to the mat. Spade then climbs the ropes in the nearby corner. He makes his way to the top, poses there for the fans and launches himself and hits a flying elbow smash to the chest on Hoshi and then he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi. Spade shakes his head as he stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and lands a dropkick on her, sending her back to the mat.

Ricky Simms - Hoshi showing some toughness kicking out of Jack's pin there.

Henry Lesher - She's a jobber, Rick. Even they sometimes kick out when they are not supposed to.

Jack Spade goes to the ropes again. He climbs to the top and poses there for the fans, launches himself and this time misses with the flying elbow as Hoshi rolls out of the way and then she quickly gets to her feet. She gives Jack a series of kicks to the ribs, then stands him up and whips him into the corner buckle. Hoshi then does a hand spring into a head scissors before bringing Jack down to the mat. Hoshi then opts to go to the ropes herself and climbs to the top. She launches herself and hits a moonsault onto the fallen Jack and then goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Hoshi with an impressive win this week over Jack Spade.

Ricky Simms - That was an excellent recovery and victory by Hoshi. Maybe momentum is picking up for her as we count down to Dead By Dawn.

Henry Lesher - And maybe you're an idiot.

Backstage we see Wyatt Gibson in his office going over matches for next week. Corina enters the office.

Wyatt Gibson - I didn't order a stripper.

Corina - Pardon?

Wyatt Gibson - Sorry, thought it was a funny line by Vig and.... what do you want?

Corina - I have a match with Xandra at Dead By Dawn. The winner is a Playboy cover girl and the loser will simply be relegated to back up. I have no intention of losing that match.

Wyatt Gibson - What's your point?

Corina - I want a match next week.

Wyatt Gibson - Maybe I'll say no.

Corina - I want a match with the one woman in this company who would challenge me and get me ready for this match.

Wyatt Gibson - Boom doesn't work here anymore.

Corina - Funny, look, I want a match with Hoshi. Make it happen.

Wyatt Gibson - But Bombshell is higher ranked and Myst's a former champion.

Corina - Hoshi is hungry enough to challenge me this week. That's what I need heading into my match with Xandra.

Wyatt Gibson - If you say so, fine. You have yourself a match.

Tommy Purr vs. FUBAR

"Last Resort" by Papa Roach plays as FUBAR is led towards the ring by Black Lightning. The crowd greets them with boos and whistles. They quickly make their way down the ramp and then stop at ringside to briefly discuss strategy before FUBAR climbs up onto the apron and then climbs through the ropes into the ring. He then leans back against the ropes in the corner and looks towards the stage while his music fades. We then hear "Walk Idiot Walk" by The Hives and the crowd greets Tommy Purr with loud cheers as he makes his way down the ramp. Tommy reaches the ring steps, makes his way onto the apron and has a few words with FUBAR. Black Lightning then shouts out to Purr and Tommy turns to say a few things to Black Lightning and FUBAR gives Tommy a clothesline to the floor while he is distracted. FUBAR then jumps to the top rope and then lands a flying cross body on Tommy before he has a chance to collect himself.

Ricky Simms - Total Darkness showing some teamwork here against Tommy Purr.

Henry Lesher - Well they need to use something since they don't have any talent to stop him with.

FUBAR stands Tommy up and rolls him into the ring, then rolls himself in and referee Francis Clarke calls for the bell. FUBAR stands Tommy up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a round house kick to the ribs before then giving him a bulldog to the mat. FUBAR then rolls him over for the pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Tommy Purr. FUBAR stands Tommy up while we see Vigilante marching down the ramp with a scowl on his face.

Ricky Simms - Vig doesn't look happy. His opponent tonight was supposed to be 6Pac, but he's apparently still being held by Total Darkness.

Henry Lesher - He should thank them.

Vigilante reaches ringside and has a few words with Black Lightning. Inside the ring, FUBAR sees Vigilante there and rolls himself out of the ring to get between his partner and the former CWA champion. Tommy Purr slowly gets to his feet inside the ring and he shakes his head. He had a few words with the referee. Referee Francis Clarke then tells both Vigilante and Black Lightning to leave ringside and allow the match to continue as it should. Vigilante turns away and takes a double axe handle smash from Black Lightning. Vigilante then turns back and starts trading rights and lefts with Lightning and then gives him a low blow before pulling him to the ramp. FUBAR rolls himself into the ring and takes a knee to the forehead from a now rested Tommy Purr. Tommy then stands FUBAR up and whips him into the corner buckle, then gives him a sidewalk slam to the mat from there.

Ricky Simms - Tommy is refreshed now thanks to the outside distraction.

Henry Lesher - Hey, take what you can get in this business.

Tommy stands FUBAR up, whips him off the ropes and FUBAR ducks a clothesline and then gives Tommy a knee to the ribs and then gives him a gut wrench suplex to the mat before going for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Tommy Purr. FUBAR looks to the referee and questions the speed of the count to no avail. FUBAR then stands Tommy up, whips him off the ropes and Tommy ducks a clothesline and then gives FUBAR a knee to the back and then gives him the TommyKnocker to the mat, seemingly out of nowhere before going for the pin. 1...2...3! Tommy Purr gets a win this week over one of the members of Total Darkness.

Ricky Simms - Good match, though it was all in FUBAR's favor until Vigilante came out here and got in the middle of it.

Henry Lesher - The right man won. It happens, though not nearly often enough.

Backstage we see Leech entering the building when he is headed off by Ray Dees.

Ray Dees - Leech, we heard you were here tonight and here you are. Why now?

Leech - I need money. Wrestling makes me money and I get to even a few scores while I do it.

Ray Dees - But you're not wrestling tonight.

Leech - No, but I have a score to settle.

Ray Dees - With who?

Leech - It's been years coming and it's time to find out who the better man is.

Ray Dees - You talking about Shannon Skanes?

Leech - No, I was thinking someone worthwhile, Ray. You'll see soon enough.

Leech shoves his way past Ray Dees and heads off towards evening a score or maybe just picking a fight.

Bombshell vs. Gerard Angelo

"I Am the Body Beautiful" by Salt N Pepa plays as Bombshell comes out onto the stage, tonight minus 6Pac Dudley. She starts towards the ring while the crowd gives her a mixed response. She is half way to the ring when Gerard Angelo attacks her from behind, giving her a chop block to the steel ramp. Gerard then grabs her by the hair and slams the back of her head into the ramp's steel. He then grabs her by the hair again and pulls her to ringside. He then stands Bombshell up and rams her head into the apron and allows himself a smile as he then rolls her into the ring. Gerard then rolls himself into the ring and referee Casey Braun calls for the bell. Gerard stands tall in the middle of the ring while Bombshell retreats to the nearest corner and looks stunned and a little frightened by the start of this match. Gerard smiles and asks where 6Pac is and who will save her now.

Ricky Simms - How many men would love to have their ex-wives in this position?

Henry Lesher - Well, it's usually not legal.

Gerard stands Bombshell up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a vicious clothesline to the mat. He then picks her up by the hair, gives her an airplane spin and then lets go, flinging her across the ring and into the corner. Gerard is actually laughing as he makes his way over to her, but she ends that with a drop toe that sends him face first into the corner buckle and then she rolls him into a school boy pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Gerard Angelo. Bombshell then rolls herself out of the ring to regroup. Gerard rolls out after her and starts to chase her. The crowd cheers as he chases her around the ring once, then a second time. On the start of the third lap, an arm reaches out from the crowd and stops him. Gerard turns to see Dex and Rex Cooper in the front row.

Ricky Simms - The former tag team champions are here tonight and are apparently protecting Bombshell.

Henry Lesher - They did a great job when her head was split open on the ramp and when she had half the hair tore out of her head inside the ring.

Gerard frees himself from Dex's grip and then he gives Rex a sucker punch before he rolls himself back into the ring. Gerard then finds himself on the receiving end of a series of kicks to the ribs from Bombshell who has now recovered from his earlier attack. Bombshell then stands Gerard up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a dropkick to the mat. She then goes to the ropes and makes her way to the top. She goes for a shooting star press on the fallen Gerard, but he rolls out of the way and she winds herself when she hits the mat.

Ricky Simms - That was too high risk at this point.

Henry Lesher - Well, it's a battle to see which of the two sucks less. It's a toss up really.

Gerard Angelo uses the ropes to get to his feet. He then turns to Bombshell and gives her a boot across the eyes. He then places her throat over the middle rope and chokes her with it, careful to avoid the five count and subsequent disqualification. He then stands her up, whips her into the corner buckle and then gives her a series of shoulder blocks. Gerard then gives her a spine buster to the mat and goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Bombshell.

Ricky Simms - That was close.

Henry Lesher - No one cares about close.

Gerard stands Bombshell up, whips her off the ropes and she grabs the ropes and dumps herself through the ropes and out to the floor. Gerard drops and rolls himself out of the ring to the floor. He stands her up. She gives him an eye gouge and then Rex Cooper gives him a sucker punch to the throat. Dex Cooper then picks Gerard up while he steps over the guard railing and then gives him a choke slam to the floor while the referee calls for the bell and declares Gerard the winner by DQ. Dex and Rex then put the boots to Gerard before finally leaving ringside with Bombshell and checking to make sure that she is all right.

Henry Lesher - Why don't Moe and Curly attack Total Darkness and ask where Larry is?

Ricky Simms - Why don't you ask them?

Henry Lesher - I'm not a journalist. I am a doctor. You are a journalist. You ask them.

Ricky Simms - The last thing you doctored was a BasketKase match.

While the referee checks on Gerard Angelo at ringside, we look backstage to find Leech is already in Wyatt's office.

Wyatt Gibson - What is it with you people? Why should I give you a match with Moose next week?

Leech - I failed in my first match back. People doubt me and forget what I can do. I guess they forget the brutal matches with Max Cameron, Ash and Moose. Since Moose is the only one currently employed in this company, I want a match with him.

Wyatt Gibson - What do I get for this?

Leech - The money the match makes. This is a fucking blockbuster.

Wyatt Gibson - He's the CWA champ. He has a match tonight for that title and he is the main event star in AW.

Leech - You know what? I don't care.

Wyatt Gibson - *looks down at the floor for a few moments* Fine, you have your match.

The two of them shake hands uneasily and we head to the ring for our next match.

Parker Davis vs. Halloween Jack

 "Your Mother's Got a Penis" by Goldie Lookin' Chain plays as Parker Davis heads towards the ring. He gets the loudest boos of the night so far. He is followed closely by Rampart and they talk strategy all the way down the ramp. Parker shoves the cameraman out of the way and then climbs onto the apron. He turns back to Rampart and motions him as to where he wants him to stand, then steps through the ropes into the ring. He paces inside the ring while his music fades and we hear "Survival of the Sickest" by Saliva and we see Halloween Jack making his way down the ramp towards the ring, the AW title raised high above his head. He shows it to Rampart first and then to Parker. He hands it off to the time keeper and then steps onto the apron. He ducks a clothesline from Parker Davis and then shoulder blocks him through the ropes. Halloween Jack then steps through the ropes into the ring and rakes Parker's eyes along the top rope while referee Bruce Miller calls for the bell.

Ricky Simms - These two are wasting no time in getting the violence going. Jack's been on a real tear as the AW champion.

Henry Lesher - Well, that's how it is supposed to work. The good wrestlers are the champions. Jack just happens to finally be a good wrestler. It only took a few years to get him there.

Jack picks Parker up and drops him on the top rope, catching his throat on it before he is then flung backward to the mat. Parker's gasping for air as the crowd cheers. They clearly hate Jack less than Parker. Jack sits Parker up and places him in a sleeper hold. Parker reaches for the ropes while the referee checks for a submission. Parker refuses to give up, despite the fact he cannot catch his breath at this point. Parker then appears to be fading in the hold and Bruce Miller raises his arm once and it falls. He raises it a second time and it falls. He raises it a third time, but this time it stays up. Parker then gives Jack a series of elbows to the ribs and then gives him a snap mare to the mat. Parker then places Jack in a grapevine submission hold. Jack quickly turns that around and knees Parker in the ribs three times, then gives him a fireman's carry into a side slam. Jack then goes for the pin. 1...2... Parker kicks out.

Ricky Simms - This match might be the dirtiest of the night tonight. Well, Frank Merritt was a dirty fighter, but his match was more of a mauling than anything else.

Henry Lesher - That's true. I'm disturbed when we agree on anything.

Ricky Simms - I cry at night when that happens. I lose a little faith in humanity.

Henry Lesher - Smart ass.

Jack stands Parker up, whips him off the ropes and Parker side steps a kick from Jack. Jack tries for a super kick, but Parker grabs his foot and pulls him to the mat and then goes for an ankle lock submission hold. Jack refuses to submit when asked and then rolls over and kicks Parker into the corner buckle. Jack then quickly gets to his feet and gives Parker a side Russian leg sweep to the mat. Jack then stands Parker up, whips him off the ropes and Parker ducks a clothesline and then kicks Jack in the back of the leg twice and then whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Rampart steps over towards Jack, but Bruce Miller orders him away while Parker exits the ring.

Ricky Simms - This doesn't look good. Parker's up to something.

Henry Lesher - Parker is always up to something.

Parker pulls brass knuckles from his trunks and then clocks Halloween Jack with them. Parker then rolls Jack into the ring and rolls himself into the ring as well. He goes for the pin on Jack. 1...2... the referee sees the brass knuckles and calls for the bell. Parker celebrates, believing that he has won this match. Kosmic Kitty then announces the result as a disqualification and Parker turns and drills Bruce Miller with the brass knuckles, not skipping a beat. He then spits on the fallen referee and then drops and rolls himself out of the ring. He and Rampart start towards the back while Parker argues his case to Rampart and his ally, of course, agrees.

Ricky Simms - Parker believes he was robbed since the referee never saw the brass knuckles shot on Jack.

Henry Lesher - He's right. He got disqualified for suspicion and that is wrong.

We look backstage and see Vesuvius with Shawna Miller.

Shawna Miller - Vesuvius, tonight you fought to a draw with Nameless. Does that send the message that you're ready to challenge Rated R once again?

Vesuvius - Shawna, I...

The interview is interrupted when we see Vigilante and Black Lightning still fighting and heading right past their position in the corridor. Vigilante slams Black Lightning's head into the wall and then throws him through the door and out into the parking lot. Vigilante then head out into the parking lot and is greets with a big boot to the chest from Puppetmaster. They are then joined by FUBAR and the three of them start putting the boots to Vigilante. We then see Vesuvius and Noah Skanes entering the picture and making the save, chasing Total Darkness off. Once it's clear that Total Darkness is in full retreat, we head back to the ring for the main event.

The Moose vs. Rated R

"I Feel Alright" by Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers plays as The Moose comes out to the loudest ovation of the night. He makes his way down the ramp and high fives fans at ringside and makes his way all around the ring before he steps up onto the apron and then pulls himself through the ropes and into the ring. He then holds his title belt high towards the fans before he reaches out through the ropes and hands it to the timekeeper. He then tests the ropes while his music fades and "I Hate Everything About You" by Three Days Grace starts playing as the crowd starts booing. Rated R steps out, but he's not dressed in his wrestling gear. He is still wearing his suit. In his hand is a microphone. He motions for the crowd to be quiet.

Rated R - Well, Moose. I really was looking forward to taking your championship this week. But, I haven't heard back from Shannon about the deal I offered him. And, since I don't have a guaranteed equal and fair match, I'm going to have to take a rain check on this one. Hope you don't mind."

With that, Rated R tosses the microphone to the floor, and turns away from the ring, heading backstage. The crowd boos and Moose stands inside the ring and seems baffled by this turn of events. He is starting for the ropes when Leech slides into the ring and then stands face to face with him. The crowd cheers as the two legends stare each other down. Leech has a microphone in hand.

Leech - You want a fight, Moose? We have a contract to fight next week, but these fans might like seeing a fight right now.

Moose - I've never turned down a fight yet.

Moose and Leech start trading rights and lefts. Leech then gives Moose a low blow and then tosses him through the ropes and out to the floor before he drops and rolls out of the ring after him.

Ricky Simms - That's Leech all right.

Henry Lesher - Oh thank God for Leech. This night isn't a waste after all.

Leech and Moose start trading rights and lefts on the floor. Moose then slams Leech's head into the guard railing. Moose then picks Leech up and dumps him into the aisle between the fans. Moose steps over the guard railing, stands Leech up and takes a thumb to the eye. Leech then knees Moose in the ribs and gives him a DDT on the floor as security moves in to break it up. They pull Leech away while a now bloodied Moose pulls himself up to his feet and starts off after him.

Ricky Simms - That was impressive.

Henry Lesher - Damned straight and next week they go at it again.

Ricky Simms - However, that is the end for this week. We will see you all next week as the Asian tour by AW continues and we count down towards Dead By Dawn.

Henry Lesher - You notice we're live and BLPW is four days late with an event in the US? What's up with that?

Ricky Simms - Must be the time change. See you next week, everybody.

We fade out as Leech and Moose beat the hell out of security guards to get at each other while Rated R refuses to fight.
