Visual Advisory Seen Only By Viewers At Home Before The Show Begins To Air:
The following program contains mature subject matter and may not be suitable for some viewers.
The show opens and the cameras are outside to see an arriving limo show up and park in the middle of the parking lot. The limo is in black tone, with very, very dark windows. The limo also looks very expensive.
Kyle Johnson: What’s this?!
Breeze Jones: Well, we’ve been seeing “He’s Coming” for the last couple of weeks and I’ve been wondering who it is or what it is.
Jarrett Firewalker: Who can out beat Chaz Holiday when it comes to grand entrances? Nobody. I bet it’s nobody special.
Kyle Johnson: Would you stop!? Like you said Breeze, we’ve been seeing “He’s Coming” for two weeks now. Only one can guess who it really is.
Jarrett Firewalker: We’ll find out later tonight just who has arrived in WXW. Right now, we’ve got Travis Thompson and Riley Huntley ready to kick things off for us here tonight!
______________________________________________________________
Travis Thompson vs Riley Huntley
Travis Thompson and Riley Huntley are already in the ring. They lock up in the middle of the ring as the referee looks on as they go into the test of strength. Travis uses his strength advantage to throw Riley into one of the corners of the ring and lays in punches left and right. He then backs up and let’s Riley out of the corner to level him with a lariat. Travis goes in for the cover…

Riley gets his left shoulder off of the mat.
Riley jumps back up to his feet and then locks up with Travis again but this time, unlike before where he was pushed into the corner, instead he pushes Travis into the corner and now lays into him with rights and lefts.
Breeze Jones: Riley is turning the tables in his favor now.
Riley waits for Travis to get out of the corner as he runs at him and hits a single knee facebreaker. He goes in for the cover but Travis is able to get his left foot on the bottom rope thus breaking the pin. Riley pulls up Travis by his hair which the referee now comes in his face telling him to let go of the hair otherwise he’ll get disqualified. Travis runs at Riley and hits a dropkick and goes in for the cover…
1…
2…
Riley gets his left shoulder off of the canvas.
Both men get up and Riley runs at Travis who is in turn running at Riley with a lariat, but Riley ducks under the lariat attempt and hits the Sugarsmack! Riley goes in for the cover but the referee was out of place so by the time the referee got over there, it was only a two count. Riley gets up and is now yelling at the referee about not being in the right place to count the three count to end this match.
Travis rolls out of the ring while Riley is arguing with the referee so he doesn’t notice when Travis goes to the outside. When he sees Travis, he quickly runs up to one of the top ropes and jumps off hitting the Frogsplash into a diving crossbody towards Travis who is able to reverse it into a bodyslam!
Kyle Johnson: What a bodyslam there by Travis!
Travis picks up Riley and rolls him back into the ring and then locks him into the half-crab in the middle of the ring. The referee looks on as Riley struggles to get himself to the bottom rope, but he finally does and that forces Travis to break the hold. Both them get up and are now standing face to face again as Travis puts an armbar on Riley who then reverses it and punches Travis in the face. The two men exchange a few quick holds as Riley seems to be getting the upper hand over Travis. Riley then whips Travis against the ropes and then hits a northern lights suplex upon his return. Riley goes in for the cover…

Travis kicks out!
Jarrett Firewalker: Gotta give credit to Travis here. He’s just arrived in WXW and he’s giving it all he can give to get off to a good start in the company.
Travis grabs the head of Riley and whips him hard into the turnbuckle and when Riley bounces back at him, Travis hits him with a DDT. Travis goes for the cover but Riley kicks out after a long two count. Travis begins to show a bit of frustration. Travis waits for Riley to get back up and then kicks him in the gut causing Riley to double over as he hits the double underhook backbreaker onto Riley. Travis then climbs the nearest top rope and jumps off hitting the Fan Pop onto Riley! Travis goes in for the cover as the referee drops down onto the mat and start the count…

3!!!
Travis gets up with a smile on his face and the referee raises Travis’s hand to confirm that he’s the winner of the match.
Jeremy Tucker: The winner of this match… TRAVIS THOMPSON!!
Riley Huntley exits the ring and makes his way back up the entrance ramp towards the back to the C.T.H.D. clubhouse as Travis Thompson remains in the ring for a bit before exiting the ring and soaking in his victory as he makes his way up the entrance ramp slowly before stopping on top of the entrance ramp to take in the view of the fans one last time. He then walks through the curtains and heads into the back.
Kyle Johnson: A great way to start the show here tonight. We’ll be right back folks after these few words from our sponsors and advertisers of World Xtreme Wrestling, its weekly show Monday Night WAR, and its upcoming pay per view event Crime and Punishment.
______________________________________________________________
(The show returns and the darkness of a hallway is seemingly ended with a bright light at the end of it. The only thing that can be seen in the light is a rocking chair with a man sitting in it. There are two men in the shadows but they are mostly invisible to the camera as the man in the chair looks at the cameraman, while he is slowly rocking, playing with his beard. He takes his hat off putting it on his lap, as he looks straight into the camera.)
Cyriaque LeBeouf: Does anyone seemingly choose what they do with their lives anymore? It seems like we are all just sheep in the rights of passage that the world has told us what we will do. Maybe I am just a shepherd for my two associates who came to me seeking something that really wasn’t there to begin with. That, my friend, is guidance. I was once like all of you and now I am coming to save you. I am coming to bring you all redemption from this world. And how is that you may ask? By showing you that the life you live and follow seems to be meaningless. That the life you live is the life you earn, not the one handed to you by mommy and daddy’s money.
(His two associates step into the light as he continues his train of thought. They both look ragged and tired, but they seemingly loom over the man as he stands up moving his rocking chair back, falling to his knees in front of them and spreading his arms into a crucifix position.)
Cyriaque LeBeouf: The only thing is that we are The LeBeouf Family, and you aren’t part of our family just yet. But you will be. Oh you will be very soon. We have been asked what do we want mostly, and what do we desire when we come to WXW. The answer that my boys and I came up with is very, very simple. The Tag Team Titles… and the World Heavyweight Championship. See, I am just your average man, but to some, I am a leader, and to some, I am a follower. If you want to find us, all you have to do is find the perch where the crows sit in unison, and you will find peace. You will know where I have been because there will be a path of destruction behind me. Heed my warning. We will strike when you least expect us to be there. We will be wherever you think you are safe. But, let the truth be told… None of you are safe anymore.
(The scene fades to black and the camera goes back to ringside.)

The Enforcer vs Chris Punk
Referee Joel Webster climbs into the ring as he checks both wrestlers for weapons. He then calls for the bell. When both wrestlers come towards the center of the ring, Chris Punk starts going after The Enforcer but Enforcer just swats him away, pushing him back into the corner hard. Chris ducks under Enforcer and comes around to the other side of Enforcer. Chris then steps away from Enforcer before going for the superkick. This takes Enforcer down to his knees. Chris goes for the running neck snap, bringing Enforcer down to the mat.
Breeze Jones: Chris is taking control early.
Jarrett Firewalker: Really? I hadn’t noticed.
Kyle Johnson: Cut your sarcasm Jarrett!
Jarrett Firewalker: I will cut nothing except the wire on your headset in a second if you don’t leave me alone!
Chris grabs the legs of Enforcer and pulls him into the center of the ring. He tries to end the match early by locking in the Shock Awareness, but Enforcer fights out of it. Enforcer gets onto his feet, Chris goes to run forward towards him and Enforcer quickly gets his leg up and hits a big boot. Chris falls straight to the mat. Enforcer drops an elbow drop to the head of Chris. Chris gets onto his feet again and Enforcer grabs him up to hit a one handed chokeslam, but Chris wiggles out of it and puts an arm behind the head of Enforcer and runs forward a little and drops down delivering a running one handed bulldog! Chris goes for a cover…
1…
2…
Enforcer kicks out!
Kyle Johnson: Enforcer seems off his game tonight. He should have gone for a pin after that elbow drop a few moments ago, but he didn’t.
Jarrett Firewalker: So he’s not allowed to have a bad night now and then?
Breeze Jones: We all have a bad night sometimes. Can you both please stop the arguing?
Chris starts to go around to the legs of Enforcer when Enforcer sits straight up. Chris gets a look on his face like what the hell. Chris starts to throw a few kicks into the chest of Enforcer, but this doesn't do much damage, so Chris does a dropkick that knocks Enforcer back down onto the mat. Enforcer gets onto his feet and Chris goes for another dropkick but Enforcer moves out of the way and Chris falls flat to the mat! Chris then rolls out of the ring to buy himself some time and to get some space.
Jarrett Firewalker: Chris regrouping on the outside. And Kyle, now you can take back what you had said about Enforcer being off his game tonight.
Kyle Johnson: I’m not taking back anything I’ve said. He hasn’t won the match yet.
Breeze Jones: You tell him Kyle!
Enforcer stands still for a few moments and looks out at Chris. He then starts running and flips over the top rope and delivers an over the top rope suicide dive, taking Chris down! Enforcer slightly hits the barricade a little himself. Enforcer gets to his feet and slides into the ring. The referee begins the ten count on Chris…
1...

Breeze Jones: Chris needs to get back into the ring.
Jarrett Firewalker: I’d be surprised if he makes it in before the ten count. Enforcer nailed that dive perfectly.

Chris begins to get onto his feet…

Chris slides into the ring breaking the ref’s count. He then goes straight at Enforcer. Chris grabs Enforcer and spins him around before dropping him with a Killswitch! Enforcer uses the ropes to pull himself up in the corner. Chris then steps back to the other corner and runs forward hitting a step-up high knee into the chin of Enforcer. He holds onto the head of Enforcer and delivers a running one handed bulldog, crushing Enforcer to the mat!
Kyle Johnson: That had to hurt.
Chris goes to raise Enforcer to his feet, but Enforcer starts coming back lifting up Chris as well and holding him in the air before dropping him down with the Vertical Suplex. He gets Chris back onto his feet before holding onto Chris’s arm and twisting before climbing up onto the top turnbuckle. He holds onto Chris’s arm as he walks across the rope a little bit before jumping off and hitting the arm-twist ropewalk chop! Enforcer gets Chris up and lifts him up wrapping his arms around Chris and locks him into a bear hug. After Chris struggles for a few moments, Enforcer changes the hold into a spinebuster position. He then does a vertical running thrust spinebuster into the ring post! Chris falls down to the mat and again rolls out of the ring. Chris then jumps up onto the apron and pulls Enforcer down across the ropes and he holds Enforcer against the ropes choking him. The ref start to count…

Chris breaks it up instead of getting disqualified. Enforcer throws a punch, but Chris ducks under. Chris then lifts up Enforcer and hits the Attitude Adjustment! Chris raises Enforcer up and hits the Punk Out Slam! He goes for the pin…

Kickout!
Chris starts getting a little frustrated that it wasn't enough. He raises Enforcer up again and hits the Hammerlock Legsweep DDT. He lifts him onto his shoulders again for another Attitude Adjustment, but Enforcer starts throwing out elbows to the head of Chris. Chris lets him go and Enforcer drops down, landing on his feet on the mat. Enforcer Irish whips Chris into the ropes and on the return, Enforcer hits a big boot. Enforcer climbs onto the top rope and waits for Chris to get onto his feet. When Chris stands and turns around, Enforcer jumps off with a high flying clothesline that takes Chris down. He then picks up Chris to flip him upside down in the Tombstone position, but Chris however holds onto the ropes not allowing Enforcer to flip him. With his other hand, he starts punching at Enforcer. Enforcer lets him go. Chris runs against the ropes and comes back towards Enforcer and kicks him in the stomach. He then hits the Twist of Punk! He goes for the pin!

Kyle Johnson: Chris pulls off the win here tonight!
Jeremy Tucker: Here is your winner… CHRIS PUNK!!
Breeze Jones: I was very impressed with this match. It was back and forth the whole time.
Jarrett Firewalker: If Enforcer wants into the title hunt, he needs to get himself focused like he’s done many times before in the past. Time will tell.
The show goes to a commercial break.
___________________________________________________________________
(The show returns and Five Finger Death Punch's “White Knuckles” blares on the loudspeakers as the fans get to their feet with Codair chants, as Codair comes out from the back and heads straight down the entrance ramp. He makes it down to the ring and climbs up the stairs to the ring. He walks over to the ropes and holds his hand out for a microphone as it is tossed up to him. Codair walks over to the turnbuckles looking up the entrance ramp. He holds the microphone to his lips as the music ends.)
TJ: What doesn't kill me, makes me stronger, and trust me, Phillip you tried to kill me. Unfortunately for you, I just shut you down. Now I got a few bumps and bruises. However, that is the thing we do, I’m all taped up because apparently, that is supposed to help for some whatever reason.
(Codair just shrugs as he looks out to the crowd.)
TJ: I mean before you, there was Angellus, with the interference by Steven and we all know how that went. Then there was that guy that is still not showing up for whatever reason. I think the work environment scared him off. Regardless, as of now, I am still undefeated here in the WXW, and to be honest. I was more than willing to get into the ring with anyone here tonight. However, due to my injuries, management felt that I should probably take it easy for a week.
(Codair shakes his head as the Codair chant starts to chime up again.)
TJ: Trust me, I am pissed off about it too. I was hoping to make an example of another one of the Saints this week, however of course, that will not happen, because I need to take a breather. I personally would like to think one of the Saints cornered the suits in the back and threw a fit from hell saying that I’m gaining more ground than the Paperweight Champ. Which by the way, he's got an issue with me speaking my peace, then, he is really going to hate me in a minute.
(The Codair chant is going insane as Codair puts the microphone in his back pocket and pulls off his t-shirt exposing the wrapped up ribs, and showing the massive bruising on the bottom of his ribs.)
TJ: Robert Saints, which one of your dogs is next, you dirty bastard. You guys sent Angellus, I beat him. You guys sent Phillip, I beat him while I was blatantly injured in the match. As bad ass as he likes to think he is, he still got taken down a peg by me, while I was busted up. Ya did a number on me Phil, but ya didn't do good enough.
(Codair stops for a minute as the fans chant his name. Codair holds up the microphone, then his hand, then pulls the microphone to his lips.)
TJ: I find it amusing though, that this place is in such chaos, problem here though. I thrive on chaos. I live for it. This is what makes me who I am and allows me the chance to do the things I need to know by whatever means necessary. However, other people have taken it, and have attempted to do so to extremes. The shit that happened with Drake DeMarco and the locked room, the sledge hammer mania done towards Extreme Justice, and then to top it all off, the attempt with the brass knuckles to Alexis Makarios. This is what is the WXW. A place of pure chaos. In other words, this is me saying you all want chaos, you all want anarchy, I got no problem delivering. Everyone on the roster is now on notice. Ya cross me, you’re in for a rude awakening. Hell, I will take anyone on right now.
(Just as Codair finishes saying that, a few of the trainers from the back come out towards ringside as Codair gets a look of annoyance on his face. The trainers enter the ring as Codair backs up to the ropes and leans on them, holding the microphone up.)
TJ: Hi boys! I suppose you guys ain't looking to wrestle here tonight are ya?
(They move towards Codair as the head trainer is heard telling Codair he needs to go to the back and be checked. Codair tells the trainer he is fine as he shakes his head. Codair begins to speak again.)
TJ: Ok, ok, ok! Me and the trainers will take on any amount of people you want to th....
(The microphone goes dead, as he tries to speak into it again. Codair shakes his head in disbelief. He turns to the ring announcer and asks for another one as several officials come out to the ring. The fans are heard booing as TJ climbs up the turnbuckles and sits on the top, cupping his hands around his mouth, he boo's along with the crowd. The head trainer walks over towards the announcer and is handed a microphone. The camera turns to TJ as he is seen muttering.)
Head Trainer: TJ, it has been ordered by Cassandra Caldwell, that you are not to be allowed in a match until we clear you for physical competition. Furthermore, TJ, we need you to actually come and get checked now for us to allow you into the ring at our next show. TJ, there is nothing we can do about it! Your health is the concern right now. Due to the nature of your injuries, you could be looking at another month to aix months out if you don't take proper care of yourself.
(The fans are all heard booing, as Codair shakes his head in disbelief. TJ is heard yelling “What, you want me to commentate?! Are you kidding me??!” The head trainer is looking at him as TJ gets off the turnbuckles and walks towards the head trainer. TJ takes the microphone and begins to speak again.)
TJ: Alright, I will go play this game. You guys can check me. Just make sure the big guy over there doesn't get too frisky. I don't need him trying to take advantage of me.
(The camera fades out and the show goes to some commercials from our sponsors.)

Kelly Robinson vs Miss Puppies
The match starts with Kelly and Puppies in a lock up position in the middle of the ring. Puppies take the early advantage of the match with her strength. The strength of Puppies startles Kelly, as she wasn’t ready for it. Puppies shoves Kelly into the corner, she throws elbows to the side of Kelly’s head. Kelly falls to the canvas.
Breeze Jones: Rough going for Kelly thus far in this match.
Kyle Johnson: Sure is, but Kelly is tough. She’ll rebound.
Jarrett Firewalker: Well, I hope so. That’ll be a travesty if she doesn’t.
Kelly does just that. She gets back into the match when she throws a punch and it connects to Puppies after she celebrated with the fans. Kelly hits Puppies with a snap suplex and after the snap suplex, Kelly hooks a sleeper hold on Puppies! Puppies starts to slowly fade in the middle of the ring from the sleeper hold, but she starts pounding her foot on the mat getting the crowd into it and they do. Puppies is fighting out of the sleeper hold! Puppies finally breaks out of the hold and hits a suplex of her own on Kelly. Puppies goes for a quick pin…
1…
Kelly kicks out at the 1 count.
Jarrett Firewalker: Well Kelly kicked out of the pin. Puppies thought she had an upper hand after that sleeper hold but it wasn’t the case.
Kyle Johnson: Not at all.
Kelly rolls out of the ring after that pin to gather herself for a second. Puppies follows her out. Kelly and Puppies are now fighting on the outside before Kelly rolls Puppies back into the ring. Kelly quickly climbs the ropes and hits the diving crossbody on Puppies. Kelly, after the move goes for a cover…
1…
2…
Puppies kicks out right at the two count!
Puppies gets on her knees after the pin attempt. Kelly tries to kick Puppies in the shoulder but Puppies blocks it. Puppies picks up Kelly and slams her down for a spine buster. Puppies goes for a cover…
1…
2…
Kelly kicks out. Puppies is becoming annoyed with Kelly.
Jarrett Firewalker: Oh boy, Puppies is starting to get angry. I wouldn’t want to mess with her.
Kyle Johnson: That’s because you’re scared of her, right?
Jarrett Firewalker: Am not! She reminds me of the angry woman that lives down the street from me! She looks like that!
Kyle Johnson: Oh, Puppies isn’t that bad!
Jarrett Firewalker: I saw Puppies pulling down her pants in front of a stagehand!
Meanwhile during the bickering, Kelly took advantage of Puppies after the pin attempt. Puppies had Kelly in her hands in the corner, but Kelly fought back, then cornered Puppies, which is why Kelly has the upper hand. Kelly sets up Puppies for the Hell Makeover and connects with her. She goes for a pin...)
1…
2…
3? No! Puppies pops the arm up at the last second!
Kelly has a look of disbelief on her face after Puppies kicked out. She holds up 3 on her fingers towards the ref, and the ref just shakes his head and says no, it was only a 2 count. Kelly picks up Puppies and tries to go for the Hell Makeover again, but Puppies gets out of it and pushes Kelly chest first into the turnbuckles! After Kelly hit the turnbuckles, she turned around and Puppies put her head between her legs. Puppies goes for the Cherry Bomb and connects! She goes for the cover!
1…
2…
3!!!
Jarrett Firewalker: Puppies turned that move into something positive.
Kyle Johnson: Well, that was a good match between these two women.
Breeze Jones: Sure was. Kelly however is experiencing some bad luck since the new women have come into the division. I’m sure she’ll turn it around.
Jeremy Tucker: The winner of this match… MISS PUPPIES!!!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(The camera goes backstage and TJ is seen laying on the training table in the medical room, his shirt off, his ribs untaped, a giant bruise covering a majority of his side where his ribs are. TJ lays there as the trainers are seen talking to him. The head trainer comes back into view as he gets off his cell phone and looks at him.)
Head Trainer: Good news is, I do believe that they are just severely bruised. I want you to take it easy with them, however, I will not clear you for action next week. But I do want to see you next week so that I could possibly clear you for the following week.
TJ: Really? We are going to play it this way huh?
Head Trainer: I am sorry TJ. The damage that was done could have been a lot worse, and unfortunately, where they are hurt, it does affect your breathing, and your back and we are not willing to risk it. I have been given full authority to do whatever is necessary to keep you out of a match. Until I feel that you are ready, one more shot to those ribs of yours could in fact ruin you for a long time.
TJ: Ok, what do I have to do to get you to release me back to active duty? Do you want money, power, women........................um, men?
(The trainer gets flushed up as TJ just chuckles)
TJ: Different strokes man. Ain’t my thing, but if your into guys, well then......
Head Trainer: I am not into guys. I love women. I love all kinds of women. I am a ladies man.
(TJ raises his eye brows and points to the head trainer’s hand.)
TJ: I would watch what you say on national television bud. Hate for your wife to hear that.
(The head trainer turns and walks out of the room as TJ is heard chuckling. The show goes to commercials.)
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
(The show returns and is back to the limo, which has the back driver’s door now open. The camera slowly approaches the door and takes a peek inside. Once the camera takes a peek inside, nobody is in it.)
Kyle Johnson: Empty?
Jarrett Firewalker: I told you it was nobody!
Breeze Jones: Answer me this, why would a limo come here if it didn’t bring anybody? It doesn’t make any sense.
Jarrett Firewalker: It’s my limo!
Breeze Jones: I doubt it. I saw the kind of things you lug around, and I’m pretty sure you’re not that rich.
(The camera scans the quiet crowd of the Scottrade Center. They’re waiting with anticipation on whoever that person is that came in the limo. Suddenly “La Raza” from Kid Frost starts to blare in the arena’s speakers and as it did, the crowd who was recently quiet, got loud, very, very loud! Wrestling legend Eddie Lopez comes out from the gorilla position and the crowd got even louder! You would think the St. Louis Blues won the Stanley Cup, which they never have before.)
Kyle Johnson: HOL SHI….IT’S….HE’S HERE! THE LEGENDARY EDDIE LOPEZ IS HERE!
Jarrett Firewalker: …..I….just seen a ghost!
(On the stage, Eddie stands a bit startled by the crowd, or so we think. Eddie is dressed in blue jeans, a red shirt, and a new leather coat that has his name on the back of it with “La Raza” also on it. A smile comes across his face as he starts walking down the ramp. As he is walking down the ramp, pyros shoot up from behind him. Once at the bottom of the ramp, Eddie saw a sign from a person to his left in the front row. The sign reads “Eddie Owns Max!” Eddie saw the sign and smiled and pointed towards it. Parts of the first row crowd are bowing towards Eddie.)
Kyle Johnson: This….this is the loudest I’ve ever heard for any superstar! I’m just lost for words that Eddie Lopez is here! He’s a two-time Hall of Famer, as well as a legend of wrestling.
(Eddie starts to climb the steel steps and he enters the WXW ring for the first time. The crowd is still loud as it was when he first stepped out here. Eddie starts to scan the crowd, but when he saw a familiar face at ringside, he stopped. He started to climb out of the ring and walked towards the announcer’s desk. He and Breeze shared a long embrace. These two have been friends for the longest time, and they’ve gone two months without talking to each other. After the hug, Eddie rolled back into the ring with a microphone in his hand. By this time the crowd had quieted down, but not by much, and his music stopped.)
Eddie Lopez: Greetings WXW! I’m finally in a place where wrestling matters, and from what I heard, it doesn’t have a know-it-all biased boss!
(The crowd cheers a bit before they chanted his name. Over 19,000 people are chanting it, which brings a smile to Eddie’s face again. Eddie is having fun. At least this company appreciates him.)
Eddie Lopez: You know…. that “other place” I was in found a way to break me. It broke me to a point where I wanted to retire from the wrestling world. I was to a point where when I wrestled, it didn’t mean a whole hell of a lot. I wasn’t excited for any of the matches I was in, until I had my “final” match with Trisha Lee Moore. For eight months after the classic match I had with Duke Russell at Destiny to Trisha at Crusade, I felt…..depressed, if you will. I was physically and mentally drained and I wasn’t happy. So that’s why I went on vacation. I wanted to get away from wrestling and everyone involved. I needed “me time”.
(The crowd is listening to Eddie, so they’re quiet. The announcers are also listening to him.)
Eddie Lopez: In a way, I’m glad I left that place. I was getting tired of the way I was getting disrespected. I mean c’mon….I picked up the broken wagon of that place and carried it. It was me, DeMarco, Russell, Dunn, who put that place on the map! But now, now they have people who are “in” with the boss, and they are ALWAYS in the main event and pleasing his ego by sucking his dick every chance they get. People always said I had it in with the president of the company Star Stormz, but that wasn’t the case, I WORKED my way up to get the championships I deserved there.
(Eddie started to walk around for a moment or two before speaking once again.)
Eddie Lopez: All that crap there almost drove me into retirement. So, while I was on my vacation, I sat there every day on the beach, thinking back to the fun times I used to have in the business. From the first time my dad took me to a show in ’85 to now. Then my daughter asked me if I was going to retire, I told her no. I told her that I need to find a place that fits my needs, and respects everything I’ve done. I wasn’t going to be chased away from something I love that easily!
(The crowd cheers. Eddie started walking around for a second time.)
Eddie Lopez: While I was on vacation, I got a call from my dad, Jorge Lopez. He told me about this place and how I can fit right in without questions asked. A place that will treat me with the respect I deserve! He and Cassie offered me a contract over the phone. It was an offer that I couldn’t refuse. It was worth a hell of a lot more than that offer that other place was trying to give me. That place was going to give me a two year deal for only 5k….. What kind of fucked up bullshit is that?!! And most importantly, how the hell can I feed my teenage daughter with that type of money?!!
(The crowd boos extremely loud. Eddie’s facial expression changed from a good mood into a stale mood.)
Eddie Lopez: Exactly! They said I wasn’t a “top name” anymore. I was like, bullshit!! I drew in more money and more fans than anyone else on that roster! Because of that outburst, they put me in a match with Kent Ford…. Who the hell is Kent Ford you may ask? A low standard lousy talent with no future in this business!
(The fans laugh and cheer.)
Eddie Lopez: If I wasn’t the top name, then why were people still in their seats when they were watching me? When the Russow’s came on, people started to leave! Hell, by the end of any Russow match, the top deck and part of the lower deck was empty!
(Eddie smiles a bit before he turned and saw Breeze sitting at the announcer’s booth. He didn’t forget about her. He just wanted to get these things off his chest before he got to her.)
Eddie Lopez: So anyway, WXW is like a new beginning for me…. So far, I know two people here. One of them is a beauty and she’s sitting right over there.
(Breeze smiles up at Eddie as he points to her. She is glad that he is here. You can tell by her body language.)
Eddie Lopez: Breeze and I have been friends for the longest time, and it’s wonderful to see her back behind an announcer’s table. Hell, that other place chased her out as well. They said she couldn’t commentate the main show because instead, they had a senile old man who needs to be put into a retirement home permanently. The other person that I know here in WXW is pretty clear, which is my father, Jorge. Hell, for the short three minutes that I was backstage here tonight, I didn’t see any greedy Russows trying to get their way or sucking up to management to get title shots! It felt PEACEFUL!
(The crowd boos and hisses loudly at the Russow name.)
Eddie Lopez: But, once again, the positive side of this is, I’m looking forward to working for this company and making it a huge success!
(A “We Got Eddie” chant started up and Eddie dropped the microphone. His theme song started back up once again and he climbed out of the ring and made his way up the ramp.)
Jarrett Firewalker: Wow… just….wow. I’m….just….that was a classic moment.
Kyle Johnson: I’m still in shock that WXW signed him. That’s a HUGE signing Cassie did!
Breeze Jones: I’m looking forward to calling his matches!
The show goes to a commercial break.

(The cameras go backstage to Miss Puppies who has just arrived back in her locker room. She goes over to the side of the room to her gymbag and notices there is a white piece of paper sitting next to it with some shiny blonde locks of hair on top of the paper.)
Miss Puppies: What the fuck’s this?
(She sees that the paper has two words written on it in big red capital letters… “NEXT WEEK BITCH”. Miss Puppies gets an angry expression on her face and shows no fear whatsoever over this eerie warning.)
Miss Puppies: Blonde hair… That can only mean one thing… My mystery attacker…
(An angry look remains on her face and her body is all tensed up.)
Miss Puppies: I’ve gotta keep my guard up. I’m gonna be ready for whatever she plans on bringin’ next week. Oh I can’t wait to find out who the fuck this dumb bitch is.
(The show goes back to ringside for the main event of the evening.)

He starts to go after Dean but the referee makes him get back into the ring. As Floyd is getting into the ring, Darren takes advantage and delivers a dropkick when Floyd is up on the ring apron! This causes Floyd to almost fall off the apron but he holds onto the ropes. Darren jumps up into the air and kicks Floyd with a jumping corkscrew roundhouse kick that finally causes Floyd to go flying off the ring apron!
Kyle Johnson: With Darren being not as big as Floyd, that allows him to be faster and have more speed.
Jarrett Firewalker: Darren always likes to keep things fast paced.
Darren runs towards the ropes and flips over the top rope looking to hit a suicide dive, but Floyd dives out of the way, nearly hitting Dean Andry in the process. Darren hits the barricade and falls into the crowd! This seems to irate Dean who starts mouthing off at Floyd. Floyd slides back into the ring. Dean and Romeo go over to check on Darren.
Breeze Jones: I hope he’s knocked unconcious. He deserves it.
Darren gets up and slides over the barricade and nearly misses the referee’s ten count, but he gets back into the ring at a 9 count. Floyd lifts up Darren and goes for the Torture Rack, but Darren slides off his shoulders. He goes to kick Floyd who ducks under it. Floyd then lifts up Darren and hits a belly to belly suplex. Romeo and Dean are on the outside talking trash to Floyd. One of the things they just said to him seems to get his attention and he gets up and looks over at them. This distracts him for a few moments. Darren sees this, gets himself up, and gets into position. Once Floyd turns around, Darren comes charging at him and delivers a huge devastating Spear! He goes for the cover!

3!!!
Jarrett Firewalker: Darren’s done it! He proved to be too extreme for Floyd.
Breeze Jones: If you say so.
Jeremy Tucker: The winner of this match… DARREN MADDOX!!
Floyd McCarver gets out of the ring, looking a little down over his loss. He then goes up the ramp and into the backstage area. Darren is standing in the ring with Dean and Romeo at each side of him. He demands a microphone from ringside and he is handed one.
Darren Maddox: You see what just happened in this ring? THIS is what Darren Maddox is all about. I just took down one of the strongest men in this company. It is matches such as this that Alexis Makarios needs to be watching very, VERY, closely. See, you all think that I’m done with that little read headed bitch, after all the aggravation and trouble she has brought to me. You all think that I’m just gonna walk away and let all of that slide. If that’s what you people think, and if that’s what Alexis thinks, then, you all truly do NOT know what Darren Maddox is really all about.
The fans start to boo. Dean and Romeo look out at them and start to grin.
Darren Maddox: See, for weeks now, Alexis Makarios has been trying to make ME look like “the bad seed” in this whole situation. But people need to open their eyes for once in their low, meaningless lives, and come to terms with the fact that the REAL “firestarter” here is your sweet little hero, Alexis Makarios. This bitch has been a thorn in my side for long enough, and I no longer care what management thinks about me and my actions. I’m not going to let this bitch keep on with trying to stop me from taking EXTREME MEASURES when it is necessary for me to take them. I want that red headed bitch to see that I don’t—
Suddenly the fans cheer loudly as WXW Co-Owner/Co-CEO Cassandra Caldwell comes out onto the stage with a microphone in her hand. She is looking down towards the ring at Darren.
Cassandra Caldwell: Darren… That’s enough okay? It’s hard enough for me to keep you in line on a regular basis without you out here trying to add even more flame to the fire. You’ve got Alexis upset enough and, actually, that’s the reason why I’ve come out here tonight. I’ve been paying very close attention to the events that have occurred between you and Alexis over these past weeks. I see that it’s not getting any better. It’s really only getting worse from what I can see. My concern Darren is… I’m worried that if I don’t step in now and do something about this utter bitterness and dislike between you both, then someone is going to get hurt and hurt bad. I don’t want, nor can I allow, that to happen.
She takes a moment before continuing.
Cassandra Caldwell: That is why I’ve decided to put an end to it.
Darren starts to look confused as he, Dean, and Romeo are looking back at her.
Darren Maddox: What do you mean, put an “end” to it?
Cassandra Caldwell: I’ve decided that at our next pay per view Crime and Punishment… it’s going to be you Darren Maddox… against Alexis Makarios… in a First Blood Match!
The crowd starts to go crazy at this announcement! Darren takes a few steps back and looks as if he’s not sure how to react, but then, she starts to get a grin on his face. Cassandra turns and goes off the stage and into the back. Dean and Romeo are standing there giving him a few encouraging words, telling him not to worry, that he’ll beat Alexis. Darren begins to speak again as he is looking towards the stage.
Darren Maddox: You hear that Alexis?!! You hear that??!! You and I are gonna finish this once and for all. And trust me, this time… it will be YOUR blood that gets shed… not mine!
Suddenly the fans cheer loudly as we see Alexis Makarios walking out onto the stage from the back, with Drake DeMarco beside her. They stop and stand there on the stage looking towards the ring at Extreme Justice. Alexis is looking at Darren and starts to nod her head yes, making it very clear to him that she very much wants this match and is by no means intimidated by it. She has a determined look on her face as well as a little grin. Drake has a big smile on his face as if he’s not concerned at all about this big announcement. Her and Drake remain standing on the stage looking at Darren and he is looking back at Alexis.
All three members of Extreme Justice remain standing in the ring with slight grins on their faces as the show slowly fades off the air.
