Episode XXXI
After the pyro display and the commentator welcome, "Hate Me" by Blue October plays.
Danny Hall walks down to the ring, wielding a microphone and carrying the AXW Light Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder. He enters the ring, and is about to speak, when...
[flash]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqOWunI7dYI[/flash]
Acer Stone makes his way from the back and walks down to the ring.
Danny Hall: Why are you out here?
Acer Stone: Well, Dan, I'm out here to make sure you don't do anything stupid with that title. I am the co-holder of the AXW Light Heavyweight Championship and if you lose the title, I also lose the title, and I want to make sure that that doesn't happen.
Danny Hall: Relax, I'm not out here to put the title on the line, so why don't you stand in the corner and let me do what I need to do.
Acer walks over the corner and rests on the top rope.
Danny Hall: So, the reason I'm out here is to call out this "SDS" person. Your little letter meant nothing to me, but after the grueling match I had against this chump over here, you attack me with the lights out? The best part is, you're too scared to show your face. Why don't you come down here so I can rip your mask off and reveal who you really are!
The lights in the arena flicker. The letters "SDS" appear on the jumbotron.
Out walks a woman, who's body type doesn't quite match the person who attacked Danny Hall at Winterslam. She stands at about 5'5", she's wearing a red plaid button up shirt and black jeans.
She enters the ring and stands a few feet away from Danny.
Danny Hall: Who are you?
Woman: My name is Sam De Santa, and to try to prevent you from hurting your brain, yes, that is what SDS stands for.
Danny Hall: So you're the person who sent me that letter and attacked me last week?
Sam De Santa: I was the one that sent you the letter, however they were not my words, Mr. Hall. And I was not the person who attacked you.
Danny Hall: So who did?
Sam De Santa: I'm getting to that. You see Danny, me personally, I have nothing against you. But, I have a client who is not too fond of you. So in a business sense, that means that I have something against you. My client is the one who attacked you. He has a personal vendetta against you.
Danny Hall: Well, who the hell is your client?
Sam De Santa: If you really wish to know, he'll have no problems coming out here and introducing himself to you, but, you might already know who he is.
The fans cheer as this song brings back some memories to the AXW faithful. The jumbotron remains blank until a man walks out, then the name "Trent Mathews" appears on the tron.
Mike Vincent: Trent Mathews is back! We last saw him at Breakdown when Danny Hall left him high and dry!
Cole Haywood: And he's coming out to his old stupid theme song too.
Trent removes his leather jacket and makes a b-line to the ring. He slides in and wastes no time as he tackles Danny to the mat and starts punching him! Trent runs to the ropes and drives his knee into the back of Danny's head with the Trentsetter! Trent looks like he's about to continue his onslaught, when Sam stops him, telling him to "Save it for when it really matters." Trent and Sam exit the ring as Acer once again scoops up the Light Heavyweight Championship and takes it with him.

vs. 
Unlike his last match, Clifford Bradley gets some more offense in this more back and forth match up, but it's Jack Adams who walks away with the win after a High Angle Boston Crab.
-----
We cut backstage where we see Justin Wyndham trying to talk to TO'A.
Justin Wyndham: I was just trying to help you.
TO'A: ...
Justin Wyndham: We came up together rebelling against hardcore matches. The TO'A I saw wrestling in a Death Match is not the TO'A I know.
TO'A: ...
Justin Wyndham: Are you gonna talk to me or am I wasting my time?
TO'A: You're wasting your time.
TO'A walks away leaving Justin to sigh.
vs. 
After brutally attacking Zoey Mathews-Mitchell last week, Janet finds herself in a match with Velvet Valentine as the commentators state that Zoey is not here and is still recuperating and has received some stitches. The match is pretty back and forth with each woman hitting their big moves. The match ends in a disqualification when it turns out Zoey actually is here and attacks Janet. Velvet tries to help Zoey in double teaming her, but Zoey tells her this is something she has to do alone. Zoey and Janet engage in a fist fight, that causes Zoey's stitches to get re-opened as blood streams down her face. Luke Mathews tries to break it up, and as strong as he is, cannot keep his girlfriend and sister apart, as a plethora of security rush down to separate them.

A cameraman finds the Alliance of Truth locker room door partially opened as he sticks his camera in. We see Jonathan Fhenix and Duncan Aries talking to Danny Hall. Duncan quickly spots the cameraman and shoves him to the floor and slams the door shut.

vs. 
Old rivals go at it in this hell of a match, that sees Hailey Harris on top after Check This Out!, further cementing her shot at the AXW Women's Championship.
Starla Gardevoir is interviewed backstage, discussing how she's now less than a month away from redeeming her championship for another title match. When asked which title she has in mind, Starla says "You know what I'm after." She states that no one is taking this opportunity from her, and ends the interview by saying, "Sup, Dave?" and winking.
-----
vs. 
A solid matchup between the two that Mercer wins via No Mercy.
-----
Luke Mathews is asked about the situation between his sister and his girlfriend, and simply states "No comment" before continuing on with his business.
vs. 
Ethan's career has seemed to have skyrocketed since aligning himself as a Steve Corman Guy, as he's now in the Main Event in a non-title match against the AXW Champion, David Slayton. The match is probably 60-70% David Slayton offense. However, with some distractions from Steve Corman, Ethan Cutler picks up the win, getting immense boos from David's hometown crowd.
