Corpus Christi, Texas
Episode XX
The camera swoops down before resting at the Before the Bell desk. John Hendon: Welcome to the twentieth installment of Before the Bell! I'm John Hendon, and as always I'm joined by England's finest, Zack Fields... Zack Fields: Hello. John Hendon: And former AXW Tag Team Champion, Zoey Mathews-Mitchell! Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: As I'm sure you've seen from my matches this year and the fact I never leave home without my trusty kendo stick, I've really taken a fancy to hardcore wrestling, and I would absolutely love to be competing tonight, but this whole being pregnant thing is preventing that. Regardless, I'm gonna sit back with a big ol' bowl of popcorn and watch all the great action tonight. John Hendon: So without further ado, let's get to it, starting off with Jack Adams vs. Gabe Shelley. Zack Fields: Gabe Shelley found himself in this position due to his friendship with David Slayton. At the time, David was in the triangle feud with The Alliance of Truth and The Steve Corman Guys, and Gabe stepped up to help even the odds for his friend. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Back at Rise, the two clashed and it was Jack Adams who came out on top. He didn't win in the cleanest of ways, but tonight, none of that matters. Anything goes. John Hendon: So who's walking out of this one as the winner? Zack Fields: Well it depends on if Damien Steele will get involved, and then if David Slayton gets involved. There's a lot of factors that we don't know if they're gonna happen, but I think Jack Adams takes the W. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I'm going with Gabe Shelley. He and David, should he get involved, have so many years more experience than Jack and Damien. John Hendon: I'm gonna agree with you, Z. Gabe Shelley leaves victorious. Zack Fields: Next up, the AXW Women's Championship is on the line as Hailey Harris defends her title against Janet Hurricane and Katsuko Nakamoto. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I'm really looking forward to this one. You have Hailey Harris, who captured the title from Olya Oglovska back at Horizon. She's since gone on to change her attitude and redevelop herself and had a strong defense at Rise, defending against 5 other women. Then you have Janet Hurricane, who never really got her one-on-one rematch when she lost the title almost two years ago. When Trent was in power, he never gave her the rematch she deserved, and when she finally got it, she lost due to shenanigans from Hailey Harris in the three-way feud with Caitlin Shay. Janet has now evolved, and has become incredibly hard to beat when you're in there with her one-on-one, trust me, I know. Then you have the newcomer Katsuko Nakamoto who has taken the division by storm. In her very first professional wrestling match she almost left as AXW Women's Champion. Three girls with three different styles and I'm looking forward to it. John Hendon: Hailey and Janet don't seem to be taking Katsuko as seriously as they should. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: And I can see why. New girl with hardly any experience. They think she;s just a flash in the pan, and she very well could be. But they can't put Katsuko on the back burner otherwise she will leave as AXW Women's Champion. Zack Fields: I think Hailey Harris will retain her championship tonight. She's fought tooth and nail to hold onto her title, and tonight will be no exception. John Hendon: I believe that tonight AXW will see its first ever Japanese champion. Katsuko Nakamoto seems to have won over the AXW fans, myself included. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Until I see Janet Hurricane lose a singles match clean, I'm going to keep predicting that she will win, as it seems I am truly the only one who understands that her evolution is real. John Hendon: Also on the line is the AXW Light Heavyweight Championship as Danny Hall defends his title against Damien Steele. Zack Fields: What a turn Danny Hall's career has taken. It seems like just yesterday he was feuding with a stuffed purple skunk over the name of Danny Hall, and he's now the first person to hold the AXW Light Heavyweight Championship twice, as well as the first person to hold the BWF Chaos Theory Championship three times on top of that. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Danny won his second Light Heavyweight Championship when he defeated Trent Mathews at Rise, and won his third BWF Chaos Theory Championship at AXW vs. BWF: Domination five days before that, in a match that also happened to include two former AXW Light Heavyweight Champions - Jay Blazenwing and Danny's opponent tonight, Damien Steele. Damien has found himself back to competing for the Light Heavyweight Championship, a title he helped put on the map by being the first holder of it. John Hendon: This is another match that's hard to predict, due to the fact that Damien does have the Steve Corman Guys in his pocket if he feels things could go awry. Zack Fields: While Damien is a Steve Corman Guy, he seems to like to do things on his own. He didn't want them present for his match against Deimos, who he defeated without them. I think he's gonna do the same tonight and win the Light Heavyweight Championship on his own. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I'm gonna go with Danny Hall here. A year ago he was a guy that everyone pointed and laughed at, and now it seems like he's strapped a rocket to his back and has become a legitimate light heavyweight wrestler. John Hendon: I think I'm going with Damien Steele here. With tonight's event being anything goes, this very well could very quickly turn into a 3-on-1 Handicap Match. Zack Fields: Keeping on the subject of title matches, the AXW Tag Team Championships will be defended in a Tornado Tag Team Match with reigning champs Lethal Weapons defending against The Nintendudes. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Whenever we talk about Lethal Weapons we always discuss their friendship. Former best friends turned bitter rivals turned back to okay friends. Perhaps not as good friends as they once were, that doesn't seem to matter. They get the job done. They certainly are the strongest tag team in the division especially after the dissolution of War Horse. On the other side we have The Nintendudes. We've seen a few tag teams in the past who were similar in nature to The Nintendudes - Chicks & America and The Push being two examples. Chicks & America are one of the most popular teams in AXW history, as well as The Push who are the only team to hold the AXW Tag Team Titles twice. I think Nintendudes have all the tools to follow in those footsteps and make a name for themselves, but tonight? I don't think it's their night. Lethal Weapons just seem to be on another playing field in the tag team division and I think they're gonna retain tonight. John Hendon: A solid run down and prediction, I'm gonna have to follow suit and say Lethal Weapons will retain their championships. Zack Fields: I don't think there's any way around it, Justin Wyndham and TO'A are two established stars and both are former world champions. The Nintendudes just simply aren't. I'm making a clean sweep with this prediction by going Lethal Weapons. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Lethal Weapons won the titles back at Rise by defeating War Horse. After the match, Austin Graves helped Ryan Starr to his feet, only to drop him back on his head with a Cradle 2 Grave. Ever since, the two former teammates have been at each other's throats, and it culminates tonight in a singles match. John Hendon: They were two great singles competitors who happened to come together and make a team, and tonight they return to singles competition against each other. This thing is gonna be heated, and in the end, I'm seeing Ryan Starr standing tall. Zack Fields: Hands down, I think Austin Graves is winning this one. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I've known Ryan since my CCW days, and I know that he can hang with the toughest of them. Ryan Starr is victorious tonight. John Hendon: In just a few moments here we're about to see Olya Oglovska face Trent Mathews in our Before the Bell Exclusive Match. Zack Fields: Olya has picked up a number of wins looking to find her footing once again since she lost the Women's Championship, while Trent is looking to find any footing as he's been going downhill since Rise. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Let's not forget about the very little history that these two have. Last year Trent recruited Olya Oglovska to be a member of Team TRENT to help try to keep AXW for himself. Trent obviously recruited her for a reason, he saw the potential that she has and now he finds himself in a position where he himself now has to overcome the potential he saw in her. And in a match where Sam De Santa can legally get involved, I think he's gonna start getting back on track tonight. Zack Fields: I agree. Tonight is the night Trent Mathews becomes great again. John Hendon: I'm gonna disagree. Olya Oglovska has been stepping up her game and I think it continues tonight. While we take a break, enjoy this Before the Bell Exclusive Match-up. ----- “Like A Prayer” by Madonna plays through the speakers providing a peppy ambiance. The entire arena goes dark momentarily as “Sister Inferior” Olya Latanya Oglovska enters from the ramp with a pair of opera binoculars in her right hand. Three spotlights highlight various audience members who have striking physical attributes. As Olya walks down to the ramp she fans herself with a bidder paddle. Salvatore Pellegrino: This is your Before the Bell Exclusive Match scheduled for one fall, introducing first, from Saratov, Russia, "Sister Inferior" OLYA OGLOVSKA! Upon reaching the arena floor and within clear eye line of her opponent, all three spotlights converge. Oglovska raises her bidder paddle to indicate she plans on procuring another priceless artifact for her exhibit. "Dammit" plays and out walk Sam De Santa and Trent Mathews. Sam stops on the stage and places her hand on her hip. Trent steps in front of her and drops to his knees, extending his arms out as pyro rains down behind them. Once the pyro stops, Trent stands up and the two make their way down the ramp. Salvatore Pellegrino: Her opponent, accompanied to the ring by Sam De Santa, from Owasco, New York, weighing 217 pounds, TRENT MATHEWS! Trent slides into the ring while Sam walks up the steps. Trent steps onto the middle turnbuckle, looking around at the fans. Sam stands in the ring, extending her arms towards Trent, as if telling the fans to bask in the glory that is Trent Mathews. Trent steps down and holds his arms back, allowing Sam to remove his leather jacket. Sam steps out to the apron, hangs the jacket from the ring post, and walks down the steps, while Trent readies himself for the match.   Olya and Trent lock up, with the larger Trent backing Olya to the corner. Trent looks for a punch but Olya ducks and escapes the corner, and now hits a flurry of strikes to the now cornered Trent. Sam's involvement starts early as she grabs the leg of Olya. This allows Trent to take Olya down with a Zigzag. Olya is back up only to be planted with a DDT. Trent throws Olya into the bottom turnbuckle, setting up the Running Face Wash. Trent lifts Olya up for a Brainbuster. Trent gets a two count on the cover. Trent nods to Sam who reaches under the ring and pulls out a chair. She slides it into the ring and Trent grabs it. He looks to slam it against the head of Olya but she moves out of the way and ends up dropkicking it into the face of Trent. Olya tries rolling Trent up with a Schoolgirl Pin, but he kicks out. Olya takes Trent to the mat with a Frankensteiner. Trent is back to a vertical base and Olya manages to pick him up for a Dragon Suplex. Olya is unsuccessful in her pin attempt. She hooks Trent for a suplex but he counters with a Jawbreaker. Trent lifts Olya up for a Double Underhook Backbreaker and she ends up rolling out of the ring. Trent runs off the ropes before diving out with a Suicide Dive, Olya bouncing back first off the barricade. Trent jumps up onto the barricade and jumps off with Trent's Twist (corkscrew senton). Trent grabs Olya's head and uses the apron to propel himself backward for Trent the Ninja (Shiranui). Trent rolls Olya into the ring and gets frustrated when his pin attempt results in a two count. Trent slams Olya to the canvas with a T-Bone Suplex. Trent ascends to the top rope, and looks for a Diving Leg Drop, which misses as Olya moves out of the way. Trent gets to his feet, but is of course in a lot of pain from the missed Leg Drop and is clutching his lower back. Olya takes him down with a Snapmare with Rolling Neck Snap, earning another two count. Trent crawls to the ropes to help himself up, but Olya is there to use the ropes to her advantage and chokes Trent. With no rope break, she does this for longer than five seconds which triggers SDS to enter the ring and forcibly pull Olya off of Trent. Sam stomps away at Olya while Trent recovers. The duo have a gameplan in mind. Olya is starting to get to her knees and Sam holds the chair up behind her head. Trent runs off the ropes intending to knock Olya out with a chair assisted Trentsetter (Shining Wizard to the Back of the head), but Olya manages to sense it coming and just moves out of the way. Olya quickly throws Sam out of the ring. Trent picks the chair up and approaches Olya, but the chair is once again re-acquainted with the face of Trent, this time via Soviet Sickle [Shades of Lance Storm's Superkick]! Olya covers and Jessie McCormick makes the three count. Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner, OLYA OGLOVSKA!
Olya has her hand raised in victory, before fanning herself with her bidder's paddle. Jessie checks on Trent, who was cut open from the last chair shot. Olya exits the arena, happy with her win.
-----
John Hendon: Another big win for Olya Oglovska, even overcoming the numbers advantage with Sam De Santa at ringside.
Zack Fields: Yeah, and that's another tough loss for Trent Mathews. He hired Sam De Santa to help revitalize his career, and as of late that has not been happening.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: And if he ditches Sam, it's back to square one. Both of them need to focus and come up with something, it's a team effort for them.
John Hendon: Moving on with our program, let's talk about tonight's Main Event - Steve Corman defends the AXW Championship against Duncan Aries.
Zack Fields: This one dates back to the spring, when Duncan Aries was mysteriously attacked backstage. The Steve Corman Guys were seen leaving the area, but denied any involvement.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: And then the next week they took out Jonathan Fhenix in the middle of the ring, rendering the Alliance of Truth useless without the two head guys. They eventually return and they target Steve Corman and his cronies.
John Hendon: Steve Corman would continue to deny any involvement in the attack, and was then attacked himself by The Alliance of Truth, to the point where Steve would not be able to compete until tonight, per his personal doctor.
Zack Fields: Steve Corman was technically correct, which is the best kind of correct, as Duncan Aries got the security footage which showed the Corman Guys assaulting him, but Steve Corman was not present. He walked out of nearby door and didn't see Duncan whatsoever.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: You really think Steve Corman didn't orchestrate it? He just happened to be in that room right next to where Duncan was? I don't buy any of it, but tonight, it'll finally be settled, Corman vs. Aries.
John Hendon: This is another match with variables that make it hard to predict. Will Alliance of Truth get involved? Will the Corman Guys get involved? It's hard to call, but I'm picking Duncan Aries.
Zack Fields: I'm gonna go with Steve Corman.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I'm also gonna predict Steve Corman.
John Hendon: Next up is a feud that's gotten very personal, Jonathan Fhenix faces Malcolm M. Mitchell in an AXW Cage Match.
Zack Fields: For those unaware with what an AXW Cage Match is - picture a standard steel cage. Now, remove the door. Solid chain link walls all the way around. Now put a chain link roof on it. That's an AXW Cage, once it lowers there is no way in or out until the match is over.
John Hendon: This one dates back to AXW vs. BWF: Domination, where The Alliance of Truth attacked Malcolm M. Mitchell who was slated to be part of the Main Event. Malcolm M. Mitchell has vowed to be a thorn in their side.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: When they attacked Malcolm, they didn't just attack his well being. They attacked my well being. They attacked our unborn child's well being. Malcolm not being able to work means less pay for our family which means less opportunities for our child. Then that scumbag Fhenix enters our home... the beating that Malcolm delivers certainly won't be enough to justify their actions.
Zack Fields: While Jonathan entering your home may have been a heinous action, he's still in your head. It's all about mind games and he has that advantage, and I'm sorry to say, I think it's going to lead to him winning tonight.
John Hendon: I'm pulling for Malcolm tonight, and we all know Zoey is as well, so why don't you kick off the next match?
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Chaz Anix has been in AXW for about a year now, and not a lot has come his way. He had a manager before everyone else did. Clifford Bradley was in a similar situation, until he found himself a manager, then was regularly competing and winning matches, while Chaz Anix watched on the sidelines.
Zack Fields: Chaz Anix eventually found himself in a match with Clifford Bradley, and he defeated him. The two had a scuffle after the match, and now Chaz Anix wants some more, claiming that he should be the face of AXW, and that after tonight he will be.
John Hendon: A win for Chaz tonight will surely do him wonders, and I think he will leave with the W.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I'm actually gonna go with Clifford Bradley here. I think he's gonna do everything in his power to prevent a second loss to Chaz.
Zack Fields: I'll agree with you there, Zo. Clifford's done well for himself and I think that'll continue.
John Hendon: You wanna talk about doing well for one's self, Anthony Royal was doing just that, until Bobo Sweetcakes returned.
Zack Fields: Anthony Royal was undefeated in singles competition. In his one loss was a Battle Royal that he did quite well in. He demands some competition and out comes a surprise return of Bobo Sweetcakes.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: You can't let Bobo fool you. Underneath that pink pin stripe apron is one of the best technical wrestlers on the roster. Him being a masterful baker is just...
Zoey actually puts on sunglasses.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Icing on the cake!
John gets a chuckle out of it while Zack facepalms.
John Hendon: I'm sure you've had that one queued up all hour. I'm predicting that Bobo Sweetcakes leaves victorious.
Zack Fields: At the end of the day, yeah, Bobo is a great wrestler, but Anthony Royal is better, which is why he will be the one winning tonight.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: I think Bobo is gonna win and it's gonna be a cakewalk.
Zack Fields: God dammit, Zoey.
John Hendon: Next up is Destiny Maverick vs. Android 18.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Destiny Maverick is a BWF competitor who to the shock of everyone won the AXW Xperience Championship at Domination, and lost it five days later at Rise due to interference from he former tag team partner Alison James. Destiny decided to invoke her rematch clause for the title, and also decided to sign a full time AXW contract.
Zack Fields: And that's when Android 18 stepped in. The Alliance of Truth have been trying to rid AXW of the BWF-made stars, and in waltzes another one. Tonight, Android 18 will do just that, rid AXW of Destiny Maverick.
John Hendon: Destiny Maverick didn't join AXW just to get kicked out two months later. She's here to stay and she'll prove it tonight with a win over Android 18.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: As much as I'd like to see Destiny win, Android is one of the toughest girls to beat clean. On top of that, she does have Fhenix and Aries at her disposal. I think Android is winning tonight.
Zack Fields: Last but not least, the AXW Xperience Championship is on the line as David Slayton challenges Bruiser Lazzou.
John Hendon: An interesting stat that David Slayton pointed out is that Bruiser Lazzou has defended the title every single week. No other Xperience Champion has done that. There were times where the title would be defended every two weeks. Is not having a week off here and there detrimental to Bruiser Lazzou?
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: You take one look at Bruiser Lazzou, and I'm sure you'd think he's out of shape. He's also not as young as he once was. Looks can be deceiving however, and I think that's the case for Lazzou. He's competed every week, but he's defeated everyone who crossed paths with him. He's still easily hanging with all the young guys. David Slayton is hoping for a worn out Lazzou, but I'm fairly certain he will get a fresh Bruiser Lazzou just like everyone else.
John Hendon: I think if anyone could dethrone Lazzou, it's David Slayton. He's my pick for tonight.
Zack Fields: I'm going with Lazzou. He's a monster on a roll and there's no stopping him.
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: Despite all I just said about Lazzou, I'm gonna agree with you, John. If anyone on this roster could beat Bruiser Lazzou, David Slayton is one of the few.
John Hendon: And that's a wrap! For those watching on AXW.com, head over to the BWF Network to catch Anarchy!
Zack Fields: And for those already on BWF Network, hurry up and get your snacks!
Zoey Mathews-Mitchell: For those without BWF Network, it's FREE! Make an account, quick!

Corpus Christi, Texas
Anarchy IIAfter the opening video package set to the Cancer Bats cover of the Beastie Boys' "Sabotage", pyro explodes from the stage, ramp, Alternatron, and ring posts. The cameras then swoop across the crowd. Mike Vincent: Tonight, every match is contested under no disqualifications, no count outs, and no rope breaks. This is Anarchy! I'm Mike Vincent joined by Chris Pierce and Cole Haywood. Chris Pierce: A jam-packed card as we give to you eleven matches. Cole Haywood: And the best part of them is what Mike just mentioned, anything goes! Mike Vincent: Let's send it to Jen Brunelli for the introduction. Jen Brunelli: Ladies and gentlemen I'd just like to remind you that all of tonight's matches will be contested under AXW's Anarchy Rules, which means there will be NO rope breaks, NO count outs, and of course, NO disqualifications! The only ways to win are by pinfall, submission, or referee stoppage. This first contest is set for one fall, and is for the AXW Xperience Championship! PUT ON YOUR WAR PAINT! The lights in the arena all cut to black and the Tron comes to life, pulsating with a green light as a quiet beat gets louder with every flash. It gets faster and faster, and louder with each pulse, until the pulsating light explodes into the words "Blazenwing Rises" and “The Phoenix” by Fall Out Boy blares across the arena sound system. You are a brick tied to me that's dragging me down Strike a match and I'll burn you to the ground We are the jack-o-lanterns in July Setting fire to the sky He-here comes this rising tide So come on PUT ON YOUR WAR PAINT! The stage fills with smoke and the crowd rises to their feet, cheering loudly, as the smoke clears on the stage and a man in a dark green trenchcoat stands, head down, facing the Tron. He raises his hands and snaps his fingers, causing four loud bursts of pyro to ignite, two on each side of him, before spinning around Y2J style to reveal David Slayton! Cross walks and crossed hearts and hope-to-dies Silver clouds with grey linings So we can take the world back from the heart-attacked One maniac at a time we will take it back You know time crawls on when you're waiting for the song to start So dance alone to the beat of your heart His sunglasses shining with the glare from the arena lights, David looks to the left, then to the right, nodding towards the crowd before walking down the ramp. After stopping to slap hands with a few fans, David moves towards the ring steps and hops up and down a few times in front of them before quickly racing up the steps to the apron side facing the stage. He stops and pulls his sunglasses off, then tosses them behind his head into the crowd before leaning down and stepping through the ropes to enter the ring. Hey young blood Doesn't it feel like our time is running out? I'm gonna change you like a remix Then I'll raise you like a phoenix You're wearing our vintage misery No, I think it looked a little better on me I'm gonna change you like a remix Then I'll raise you like a phoenix David walks across the ring and leaps up onto the second rope in the corner nearest the timekeeper, then pulls off his green trenchcoat and tosses it towards the timekeeper. David smirks and points to the fans, then slaps his chest a few times and points up towards the sky, closing his eyes and saying a short prayer. David leaps down from the corner and immediately turns to sit down in the same corner, ala Raven. David then rests his head on the second turnbuckle pad as his theme fades and the crowd continues cheering. "Code Red" by Nonpoint blares as a red light shines down on the ramp, flashing and flickering as Bruiser Lazzou emerges to a chorus of boos in a black singlet with a red hazard symbol on it, cracking his knuckles and then slapping his face, roaring and then pounding his chest before heading to the ring, yelling "OPEN FOR BUSINESS!" to fans, some of the younger ones still so traumatized by this once beloved hero. He enters the ring and runs the ropes, stomping his feet like a bull and roaring once again with his arms extended and his head tilted back, roaring once more as his music fades out. Jen Brunelli: Introducing first, the challenger, representing Tru Revolution, from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, weighing in at 245 pounds, here is "The New Hotness" DAVID SLAYTON! David remains seated in the corner, with an intense look on his face. Jen Brunelli: His opponent, from Augusta, Maine, weighing 325 pounds, he is the defending AXW Xperience Champion, BRUISER LAZZOU! Bruiser raises his championship high, confident he'll get another win tonight.   David knows that locking up will get him nowhere against the larger Lazzou, so he opts for some forearm shots to the face. David doesn't let up and backs Lazzou to the ropes, where he continues his onslaught. David runs to the opposing ropes for momentum and clotheslines the Bruiser out of the ring. David grabs Lazzou and throws him into the ring steps, the whole thing toppling over from the impact. David grabs the top half of the steps and slides them into the ring. He then looks under the ring, he knows he'll need whatever he can to defeat Lazzou. He throws in a chair, trashcan, and a stop sign. He tries to grab Lazzou to get him back in the ring but Lazzou shoves him away. Slayton tries to go right back on the attack but Lazzou throws him in the air with a back body drop, Slayton crashing hard on the floor. Lazzou grabs David and throws him into the barricade. Lazzou then barrels in and spears David through the barricade! Lazzou picks David up and brings him back over to the ring and slides him in. Lazzou goes for a cover and gets two. Lazzou lifts Slayton to his feet and lifts him onto his shoulders, but David slips free and delivers a DDT. David grabs hold of the chair and starts slamming it on the body of Lazzou, to the point of the chair getting warped and unusable, and tosses the chair away. David stomps away on the mat as he waits for Lazzou to get to his feet, and when he does, nails him with The Full Effect (Sweet Chin Music)! One! Two! Thre--no! It's gonna take more to put Lazzou away. David runs off the ropes and Lazzou emphatically clocks him over the head with the stop sign. Lazzou lifts David onto his shoulder and slams him on the steps with a running powerslam. Lazzou bounces off the ropes looking for a Bruising Bodies (Big Splash) on the steps, but David rolls off and Lazzou crashes on the ring steps. Lazzou gets up holding his gut and David takes him back onto the steps with a Lou Thesz Press, followed by some punches. David heads out to the apron and looks for From the Ashes (Frog Splash), but Lazzou moves and David hits the ring steps hard. Lazzou lifts David onto his shoulders and climbs the turnbuckles, jumping off with Bruised and Battered(Top Rope Samoan Drop) right onto the trashcan! One! Two! Three! Jen Brunelli: Here is your winner, and STILL the AXW Xperience Champion, BRUISER LAZZOU! Mike Vincent: An emphatic win by Bruiser Lazzou, if David Slayton can't beat Lazzou, I don't think anyone can. Chris Pierce: Bruiser Lazzou is on day 70, which means if he holds onto the Xperience Championship for another 20 days, he can redeem it for another championship match of his choosing. Cole Haywood: Some people think that you can only redeem the Xperience Championship for an AXW Championship Match, but you can redeem it for ANY championship match. In 20 days, Bruiser Lazzou could be standing before us as the AXW Tag Team Champions. Lazzou snatches his title and leaves the ring. He rests the title over his shoulder and flashes his fingers twice, signalling he only has twenty more days. ----- The camera fades backstage as we see Renee Peltier standing with Damien Steele who is pacing back and forth. Renee Peltier: Hello AXW Fans, I'm standing here with the challenger in tonight's Light Heavyweight Championship match, Damien Steele... Damien grabs the microphone and pushes Renee out of the way. He reaches out and grabs the camera as he pulls the camera in close, as his hair falls over his eyes and the camera only sees a close up of Damien's face. Damien Steele: Danny Hall! Tonight at Anarchy, you stand in my way of the gold that has belonged to me once before, a title that I have been fighting for since I lost it! It's a shame that you became the champion and I make no apologies for the viciousness you are about to see! Tonight you will know the meaning of By Any Means Necessary! With that Damien Steele walks off camera as the camera focuses on Renee Peltier who is recomposing herself. Renee Peltier: Well folks let's get back to ringside for the introductions of the next match. As the camera fades out we can still hear Renee speak thinking they cut. Renee Peltier: That bastard pushe... Camera cut to a shot of the crowd as we roll back to ringside. ----- ‘War Machine’ begins to play, as the crowd rises to their feet. The song plays out with the white spots lights zooming around the arena until the 33 second mark when the drums kick in and Austin Graves steps out from the back, checking the black hockey tape on his wrists. Graves pays no attention to the crowd whether they boo or cheer him, and he’s focused like a laser beam on the task at hand. Salvatore Pellegrino: This next contest is scheduled for one fall, introducing first, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing 245 pounds, AUSTIN "WAR MACHINE" GRAVES! Rolling into the ring under the bottom rope, he rolls to his feet and walks over to the hard (tv) camera side of the ropes, placing both hands on the top ropes, pressing down on them slightly, staring coldly into the camera at first, then giving way to a cold, almost sick half smile as if to say, “I’m going to enjoy this…” As Footsteps by Pop Evil begins to blare through the speakers of the arena, Ryan comes out from behind the curtain. He stands and looks out into the crowd. Salvatore Pellegrino: His opponent, from Tampa, Florida, weighing 195 pounds, RYAN STARR! He then runs down the ramp, hitting hands with the fans and slides into the ring. Then he goes up onto the ropes and bounces on them, trying to get the fans all hyped up for the match. He then jumps in the ring a little to get warped up to face his opponent.   Right out of the gate the two are at it, exchanging blows. Graves is more well-versed in this area and takes the upper hand. Graves slams Starr's head repeatedly off the top turnbuckle, before delivering Rapid double palm strikes to his cornered opponent's chest. Graves runs off the ropes and hits Starr with a Running Stiff Arm Lariat. Graves delivers a Hangman into snap Facebreaker (Across Knee) for a two count. Graves sends Starr back into the corner and barrels in with a Full Blast Elbow Strike. Starr slumps down which allows Grave to execute a Cannonball Corner Senton. Graves rolls out of the ring and lifts the ring skirt, but doesn't seem to like his options there and walks around to another side of the ring. He does the same there, and still doesn't seem to like his options. He starts to walk to another side and this is when Starr shoots through the ropes with a Suicide dive, Graves being pushed hard into the barricade. Starr climbs onto the apron and runs across it before leaping off with a hurricanrana to Graves. Starr rolls Graves back into the ring. Starr springboards into the ring and takes Graves off his feet with a forearm smash. Starr keeps Graves grounded with a headlock and throws in some punches as well. Starr takes Graves to the canvas with a Swinging neckbreaker. As Graves begins to get up Starr hits him with a Front drop kick to the side of his opponent's head. Starr grabs the legs of Graves and manages to lock in A Starr To Remember (Sharpshooter)! Graves is trapped momentarily, but manages to tuck his head and roll through it, slamming Starr back onto the mat. Starr looks to get back on the attack but walks into a Out of No-Where (Superkick). Graves lifts Starr up for Going, Going, GONE (Scoop Lift, into Delayed Suplex, into Brainbuster). Graves is frustrated when he only gets two off of it. Graves exits the ring once more and pulls apart the ring steps. He chucks the top half out of anger and slides the bottom half into the ring. Upon Graves entering the ring he gets hit in the gut with a spinning back kick. Starr runs off the ropes looking for an attack but is lifted for a Pop-up Powerbomb onto the stairs! Graves grabs Starr and has him doubled over on top of the stairs. He tries to lift Starr for a Cradle 2 Grave (Package Piledriver), but Starr is fighting it. Starr ends up double legging Graves who lands back-first on the stairs. Starr backs to the ropes to get a little separation. Graves fights off the pain and approaches Starr. Starr hits a boot to the face and uses the momentum to backflip out onto the apron. Graves is quick though and hits Starr with a Belfast Kiss! (Sharp Headbutt Served deliberately to the bridge of the nose), forcing him off the apron and to the floor. Graves takes some time to re-position the stairs, as he apparently has hatched a new plan. Graves sees Starr using the apron to help him up and ducks through the ropes to grab him. What Graves didn't see was Starr grabbed a fire extinguisher and sprays the powder into Graves' face. Graves stumbles back into the ring while Starr climbs onto the apron. Starr springboards back into the ring, this time delivering Burning Flames (Diving somersault neckbreaker) onto the stairs! Ryan covers: One! Two! Three! Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner, RYAN STARR! Mike Vincent: Ryan Starr defeats his former tag team partner, maybe it was Austin Graves who was the weak link of War Horse? Cole Haywood: Not a chance. Everyone gets lucky once in a while, and that just happened to be tonight for Ryan Starr. Chris Pierce: Ryan Starr is crafty, he'll see an opportunity and utilize it to his advantage, which is what he did tonight.
Ryan has his hand raised before exiting the ring, high fiving the fans on his way up the ramp. Meanwhile, a losing Austin Graves is seething in the ring.

"Path vol II" echoes across the arena. Destiny appears in the stands schmoozing with a few of the fans while she makes her way down the steps. She slaps hands with the fans along the way while approaching the barricade and finally climbing atop it. Lifting her hands into the air, she pumps the crowd for a larger reaction. Jen Brunelli: This next contest is set for one fall! Introducing first, from Kansas City, Missouri, weighing 123 pounds, DESTINY MAVERICK! Off the barricade, Destiny climbs up onto the ring apron and then the top turnbuckle. Once more pumping the crowd before back flipping into the ring. "Invincible" by Amaranthe hits, the fast pounding drums blaring loudly from the speakers as the lights dim completely. They come back to Android 18 standing at the entrance ramp, head down, the words 'The code awakens me' flash along the jumbotron behind her as she opens her eyes and brings her head up slowly. She walks stoically down the ramp, a smirk spreading over her face as she goes. She stops in the middle of the ramp, raising her hands to actually sign the words 'I am Invincible.' Jen Brunelli: Her opponent, from Cork, Ireland, weighing 135 pounds, ANDROID 18! Before continuing on and leaping straight up onto the ring post, she signs ''I am Invincible' one more time, entering the ring and awaiting the match to start.   The two tie up. A18 knees Destiny several times in the gut. A18 runs the ropes and takes Destiny down with a Leaping clothesline. A18 mounts Destiny and hammers away with punches. She does this for a good 20 seconds or so due to the no dq nature. A18 lifts Destiny up and plants her to the mat with a Sitout Powerbomb, earning a two count. A18 hits Destiny with several Knife edge chops. Destiny fights back with some punches and runs off the ropes, where she is struck with a High knee from A18. A18 places her foot on the throat of Destiny, choking her, and at the same time pinning her, with Destiny kicking out and breaking free of the choke. A18 uses the middle rope to choke Destiny, then leaves her slumped there to deliver a Tiger feint kick. A18 from the apron jumps over the top rope, turns in midair, and springboards off the second rope to deliver Graceful Orbit (Lionsalt) for a close two count. A18 picks Destiny up by her hair, and whips her to the ropes. Destiny responds with Upsetter (When destiny is tossed toward the ropes or barricade. She runs up and launches back with a leg lariat). Destiny delivers a headscissors which causes A18 to roll out of the ring. Destiny also rolls out of the ring, before diving through the turnbuckles with a Loco Go Round (Torpedo ddt)! Destiny quickly gets A18 back in the ring and covers, but A18 is able to kick out. Destiny takes A18 down with a Judo Throw and follows up with a soccer kick, then a standing moonsault. Destiny traps A18 in a tree of woe. Destiny quickly grabs a chair from ringside and uses it to execute a chair-assisted basement dropkick to A18. Destiny positions A18 to a seated position in the corner, and places the chair in front of her. Destiny heads to the adjacent turnbuckles and dives off with a Coast to Coast! Destiny hooks both legs but A18 still kicks out. Destiny doesn't waste a second and locks A18 in the Zipline! A18 is in trouble and manages to reach her foot out to the rope, but that doesn't matter as there are no rope breaks. A18 has to dig down deep and manages to get her feet under her, then lifts Destiny into the air and slams her back down on the mat to break the hold. Destiny tries to stay in control but is hit with a dropkick. A18 whips Destiny to the ropes and runs the opposite ropes, meeting back in the middle for Super Electric Strike (Striking spear). A18 picks Destiny up before dropping her back down with Non-stop Violence (Spinning headlock elbow drop). A18 is ready to end it, she's awaiting Destiny to get back to a vertical base. Suddenly, A18 is turned inside out from a Sleep Tight (Busaiku Knee Kick) from Malcolm M. Mitchell! Malcolm is gone in the blink of an eye as Destiny goes for the cover. One! Two! Three! Jen Brunelli: Here is your winner, DESTINY MAVERICK! Mike Vincent: Malcolm M. Mitchell vowed to be a thorn in the Alliance of Truth's side and he is keeping to his word. Cole Haywood: That's the only way possible that Destiny could defeat Android 18. You ruined everything, Malcolm. Chris Pierce: Destiny has defeated Android 18 previously, and Android 18 is gonna be fuming after this. Brian Sullivan raises the hand of Destiny Maverick. Destiny looks down at the fallen Android 18 and shrugs, as if saying "tough luck." Destiny exits the ring and makes her way out of the arena the same way she came in, high fiving fans on her way back up the stairs. ----- Backstage, Trent Mathews is seated in the trainer's room, holding a bag of ice to his bandaged forehead. Sam De Santa is stood next to him. It seems he's about to speak. Sam De Santa: Don't say anything. I know what you're gonna say. You can threaten me all you want, but if we split, you're just gonna fall into complete obscurity. Meanwhile, I'll just take someone else to greatness. You need me, Trent, not so much the other way around. You're lucky I'm even still standing by you. Trent Mathews: I wouldn't necessarily say that I need you, I mean, I did take control of this whole company and I did that on my own. However, it certainly is nice to have you, so let's please figure something out because I'm tired of losing every week. Sam De Santa: And you made the boneheaded decision to put the company on the line when you had no reason to. If you found me sooner you'd still be running this whole company, but you aren't. I can do my best to rejuvenate your career and throw you a bone at ringside from time to time but I can't wrestle your matches for you. We'll take a couple weeks to come up with a new game plan, and I'll ensure that you do not compete until we have settled on one. And after that, if you screw it up, I'm out. Trent Mathews: That works for me. We fade back to ringside. ----- As the metal version of the overworld theme of Super Mario World blares, also known as “Save The Dinosaurs” by Daniel Tidwell, The Nintendudes emerge, running in place on either side of the stage, then meeting at the center of the ramp and posing together, back to back before swinging their arms around Bushwhackers style to the music. They enter the ring and pose once more as their music fades. "When the lights go up and the game is on Are you ready for me? 'Cause I'm ready for you When the bell rings out and the fight is on Are you ready for me? 'Cause I'm ready for you " "Game On" by Disciple blares out as Justin Wyndham and TO'A aka Lethal Weapons comes out of the curtains "When the lights go up and the game is on Are you ready for me? 'Cause I'm ready for you When the bell rings out and the fight is on Are you ready for me? 'Cause I'm ready for you " Justin bends down in one knee and looks at this imaginary watch, similar to CM Punk. TO'A is beside him with his signature towel drenched in blood and wrapped around his neck as he is looking down at the ground. "It's time for us to start throwing down Take a look and see who's standing now It's time for us to start throwing down Look and see who's standing now " Justin does the cutthroat before getting up. Justin runs full speed to the ring and then around the ring, hyping up the fans while TO'A slowly makes his way down the ring, still not showing his face. Justin then slides into the ring and then bang his head to the nearest turnbuckle, hyping himself up before looking back at the crowd with a sick smile as TO'A walks up the steel steps and enters the ring. Justin then climbs at the turnbuckle and does the cuthroat sign before getting off while TO'A throws his towel on the mat and does a battle cry before the theme fades Salvatore Pellegrino: This next contest is a Tornado Tag Team Match scheduled for one fall, and is for the AXW Tag Team Championships! Introducing first, the challengers, from Redmond, Washington, at a combined weigh of 450 pounds, the team of "Player One" Mac Icarus and "Player Two" Link Zapper, THE NINTENDUDES! Link and Mac double high five as they get amped up for the match. Salvatore Pellegrino: Their opponents, at a combined weight of 490 pounds, they are the defending AXW Tag Team Champions, "The World Warrior" Justin Wyndham and "Samoan Executioner" TO'A, LETHAL WEAPONS! The two hold their championships up high.  The bell rings and immediately the two tag teams go at it, trading blows with one another. Mac and TO’A’s exchange culminates in TO’A gaining the upperhand and ducking a right and swooping in for a quick and powerful samoan drop! Meanwhile, Wyndham isn’t quite as successful, with Link actually winning the battle until TO’A forearmed him from behind! The Lethal Weapons team up on Link, pummeling him into a corner, but Mac isn’t down for long, and delivers a dropkick, one leg targeted to the back of each man. He takes both down with a double clothesline when they turn around, and then Link runs in, uses a leap frog from Mac, and delivers a double flying clothesline! Link tries to pin Wyndham, but barely get a one count out of it. Mac hits TO’A with a running leg drop before trying a pin of his own, but TO’A also kicks out at one. The Nintendudes pull Wyndham to his feet and whip him off the ropes, hitting a double flapjack on the rebound! TO’A is back to his feet by now, and the duo try a calf kick/leg sweep combo, sending TO’A crashing back to the mat. Wyndham is still down, so Link ascends to the top rope, looking for a flying elbow drop. Unfortunately for him, Wyndham was playing possum, and as soon as he jumps, Wyndham rolls out of the way! Mac tries to catch Wyndham with a running yakuza kick, but Wyndham ducks it! Instead, when Mac turns around, Wyndham delivers a back kick! Icarus is sent stumbling back into the corner, falling down into a sitting position. TO’A is back to his feet and comes rushing with a Samoan Wrecking Ball (Running hip attack to the head of an opponent seated in the corner)! Link tries a Victory Roll With Cheese on TO’A, but before the ref can finish his first count, Wyndham has yanked Link off of TO’A. Wyndham has ahold of him by the waist, and Link fights back, delivering elbows to get loose. Back on his feet, TO’A tries to clothesline Link, but Link ducks it and TO’A instead takes down Wyndham! Link hits a Spread Gun (sudden super kick) on TO’A, dazing him, and then tries his finisher, the Konami Code (Slice Bread #2) and it connects! The pin comes in: One! Two! NO! Wyndham dives in for the stop! Mac Icarus is back to his feet now, and when Wyndham makes it to his, Mac grabs him from behind for Warp Zone (Cross Rhodes), but Wyndham wriggles himself free. This gives Wyndham enough distance to try Peace Out (spinning Capoeira kick) and he connects! Mac is down for the count, but Link blindsides Wyndham, wailing on him with forearms and lefts and rights. Wyndham absorbs and tries to block as much punishment as he can, and it pays off: TO’A pulls Link off of him, and delivers a huge knee to Link’s side! Link drops to a knee, and The Lethal Weapons work together for World War 3 (Axe Guillotine Driver/WMD Driver from Wyndham + Pile Driver from TO’A). Wyndham covers Link: One! Two! Three! Salvatore Pellegrino: Here are your winners, and STILL the AXW Tag Team Champions, LETHAL WEAPONS! Mike Vincent: The Nintendudes provided a great showing, but Lethal Weapons are still on top of the tag team division. Chris Pierce: And despite this event revolving around the fact that anything goes, both teams kept it clean, and you gotta respect that. Cole Haywood: I don't like the Nintendudes, and unfortunately for me, it looks like they're here to stay after that performance.
Lethal Weapons are awarded their championships and they raise them high. The Nintendudes have come to, and extend their hands out of respect and good competition. Lethal Weapons accept and the two teams shake hands. The Nintendudes leave the ring, letting Lethal Weapons continue on with their celebration. That is until The Nintendudes re-enter the ring and attack Lethal Weapons with chairs.
Mike Vincent: What are Mac and Link doing?!
The attack continues for a few moments. Link Zapper places his hand at the bottom of his mask, and slowly takes it off. The fans are in shock when they see the face of....
Jimmy Reynolds.
Mike Vincent: That's Jimmy Reynolds of The Push! What in the world is he doing attacking the champs?!
Mac Icarus removes his mask, and we see the face of Timmy McDermott. The Push look at one another, nod, and continue their beat down on Lethal Weapons. The attack goes on until security rushes to the ring and removes The Push from the arena.
Mike Vincent: I don't know what to say about all this.
Chris Pierce: So, The Nintendudes were actually The Push, who we have not seen since November by the way, and now they attack Lethal Weapons and for what reason?
Cole Haywood: To make a statement. It looks like we're seeing a new side of The Push and I for one am all for it.

"Everywhere I Go" starts with flashing while lights. "Everywhere I go Bitches always know That Charlie Scene got a weenie that he loves to show (bitch) Everywhere I go Bitches always know" Chaz Anix comes out with a gym tee cut to show his mustles slowly with his arms outstretched and his eyes closed "Wake up!" Chaz opens his eyes quickly and rips off his shirt and makes his way down to the ring Jen Brunelli: This next contest is set for one fall! Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by "Mr. Lust" Chester Andrews, from Miami, Florida, weighing 234 pounds, "Dr. Big Freaking Deal" CHAZ ANIX! "Grab beer Grab rear Shave beard Put on some scene gear Gotta get drunk before my mom wakes up Break up, with my girlfriend so I can bang sluts I'm undead Unfed Been sleeping on, bunk beds, since ten So if I don't booze it I'm gonna lose it Everybody get to it Do it Get ruined." Chaz stops at the end of the ramp and flexes then he slides into the ring. Failure by Breaking Benjamin fades into play in the arena. The lights dim as a spotlight centers up on the stage. 17 seconds into the song, pyros go off on either side of the stage and Clifford Bradley bursts onto the stage. Jen Brunelli: His opponent, accompanied to the ring by Alyssa Liles, from Miami, Florida, weighing 218 pounds, CLIFFORD BRADLEY! Bradley walks down the ramp, a smirk on his faces, completely ignoring the fans to either side of him. He uses the stairs to climb to the apron, demanding the ref to come and open up the ropes for him when entering the ring, and then goes directly to his corner to await the beginning of the match.   The two lock up. Anix gets Bradley in a headlock, and flexes while doing so. Bradley responds by lifting Anix up for a Back Suplex. Anix gets back up and swings his arm for a clothesline, Bradley able to duck and lifts Anix up for a German Suplex. Anix rolls out of the ring, frustrated that the match isn't starting the way he wanted it to. He talks up a new strategy with Andrews. Suddenly, in comes Bradley with a Crossbody from inside the ring, leaping over the top rope, taking out both Anix and Andrews! Bradley rolls Anix back into the ring and slams him down with a signature T-Bone Suplex. Bradley covers but the pin is broken up by Andrews who stomps on Bradley's back. Liles now enters the ring to confront Andrews. Andrews is very clearly checking Liles out, leading Liles to slap Andrews. Anix then shoves Liles, questioning her motives, leading to Bradley clotheslining Anix in the back of the head. Bradley stomps away at Anix and then clotheslines Andrews out of the ring. Bradley hits Anix with a number of elbows to the face. Bradley lifts Anix for The Price Drop (Fit Finlay’s Celtic Cross), but Anix rolls through with a sunset flip pin for two. Anix hits Bradley with a Dropkick into kip up. Anix slams Bradley hard with a Snap Suplex, and follows right up with a Standing Moonsault. He then plants Bradley with a Too Sexy for This (Flat Liner) for two. Anix goes to run the ropes but Liles grabs his foot, causing him to trip. Bradley takes Anix down with a Belly-to-belly suplex. Anix crawls to the corner where Bradley delivers a Corner clothesline. Bradley lifts Anix up for a Samoan Drop which gets a two count. Bradley now runs the ropes but is nearly broken in half with a Spear from Anix! Anix lifts Bradley onto his shoulder before chucking him into the turnbuckles with a Lawn Dart! As Bradley is helping himself up, Anix comes in with the BOOM!(Helluva Kick)! Anix covers, while Andrews prevents Liles from getting to the pin. Jen Brunelli: Here is your winner, CHAZ ANIX! Mike Vincent: Chaz Anix felt he needed this win, and he got it. Chris Pierce: Chaz hasn't been able to find his footing despite being here for so long, and it's looking like he finally has it. Cole Haywood: And thus begins the journey of the true face of AXW, Chaz Anix! All hail! Chaz and Chester head up the ramp, with Chester raising Chaz's arm. Chaz grabs the camera and pulls it in close. Chaz Anix: Take a good hard look, hell, take a picture! You are looking at the face of AXW! Chaz lets go of the camera and continues backing towards the entrance way, not caring about the fans' reactions. ----- Jonathan Fhenix is in The Alliance of Truth locker room. He's applying tape to his wrists when Android 18 approaches him. Android is seething. Android 18: End him. Jonathan Fhenix: Planning on it. Android 18: Good. Android exits frame and we head back to ringside. ----- The lights in the arena all turn to red, with the fans in anticipation for whats about to come. After a few seconds of this, "Megitsune" by BABYMETAL takes over the sound system. As soon as the song plays, the red lights pulse to the beat of the drums with a figure standing in smoke, wearing a robe and a kitsune mask. At the seven second mark of the song, the figure begins to slowly make their way down the ramp. At the fourteen second mark of the song, the figure disrobes and removes their kitsune mask, now walking to the ring at a quicker pace. Katsuko makes her way up the steps and hops onto the middle turnbuckle, raising both hands into the air, doing the kitsune hand sign. She steps onto the top rope and front flips into the ring. She walks to her corner and throws strikes at the turnbuckles before her music fades out. “S-P-I-R-I-T Spirit!! Let’s hear it!! S-P-I-R-I-T Spirit!! Let’s hear it!!” Blue strobe lights roams around the arena like a trance as the opening tune of "Happy Song” by Bring Me The Horizon blares out of the PA system. “LET’S GO!” Out comes Janet Hurricane, her hoodie veil blinding her face. As the tempo gets faster and faster, we see her jumping up and down, still cannot see her face. Once we hear the lyrics, Janet reveals her face to the crowd and starts shadowing punching and kicking, feeling the energy of her theme song. She then starts walking her way to the ring, bopping her head to the music and in her own zone, not giving a damn about the fans’ reaction. Once she enters the ring, she takes off her hoodie and does a couple of shadow boxing, again feeling the energy of the music before it fades. The arena lights dim as the opening beats of Anja’s “Dance All Nite” are accompanied by a dance club vibe of flashing, pulsing lights, the silhouette of Hailey Harris emerging on the ramp with a model’s poise. A sleeveless denim jacket with a hoodie covers a mid drift fishnet corset and a short hot pink skirt, fishnets and black boots completing the ensemble as the champion spins with her new pink G.A.W. shades over her eyes as the crowd boos her every move to the ring. In the ring, Hailey holds the title up, storming to every side of the ring, defiant as he arena lights return to normal and the music fades. Salvatore Pellegrino: This next Triple Threat Contest is scheduled for one fall, and is for the AXW Women's Championship! Introducing the challengers, first, from Hiroshisma, Japan, weighing 112 pounds, "Megitsune" KATSUKO NAKAMOTO! Katsuko holds her arms up, her hands forming the fox sign. A few streamers fly into the ring. Salvatore Pellegrino: From Charlotte, North Carolina, weighing 120 pounds, she is "The Queen of the Ravenous Generation" JANET HURRICANE! Janet remains in her corner, waiting for the match to start. Salvatore Pellegrino: And from Baltimore, Maryland, weighing 127 pounds, she is the defending AXW Women's Champion, "The Baltimore Bombshell" HAILEY HARRIS! Hailey holds her title high, showing it off to each side of the crowd.   Janet Hurricane rests on her laurels, leaning back into the turnbuckle and using the ropes as her arm rests. Harris and Nakamoto meanwhile go at each other, locking up in the middle of the ring. Harris locks her in a headlock, then takes her down and really cinches the hold in. Janet begins to applaud Harris and chirps “good job” at her sarcastically. Harris immediately pops up to her feet and charges at Janet, only for Janet to side step Hailey. She crashes into the turnbuckle and then Janet rolls her up for a pin! Harris kicks out right at the two count, and the two scramble to their feet again. They lock up, but as they push back and forth, it is Katsuko Nakamoto who gains the upperhand. She drives a stiff kick to Janet’s back, then when she drops to a knee and unlocks with Harris, Nakamoto hits a spinning back fist on Harris! Janet is getting back to her feet and Nakamoto hooks her up for a snap fisherman neckbreaker! Back to her feet, Nakamoto responds to a charging Harris with a Japanese Arm Drag. She holds onto Harris’s right arm and delivers a double knee armbreaker to it! She locks in a fujiwara armbar on the same arm in the center of the ring, but it’s a mistake. She has it in for about five seconds when Janet Hurricane comes in with a senton to break it up! Now Janet is in control, and she stomps on Nakamoto a couple of times, before yanking her to her feet for a snap suplex. She drops a knee on Harris’s right arm, recognizing that the damage has been done, then another, before turning back to Nakamoto. She has reached a knee, and Hurricane grabs her by the hair and delivers a sitout facebuster, then goes for the pin, but only gets a 2 count. She turns her attention to Harris and tries an arm bar of her own on her, but arm submissions aren’t her specialty, and Harris is able to fight her way to her feet! She is able to maneuver her way out of it, then double underhooks Janet and plants her with the Baltimore Bombshell (double underhook snap DDT)! Harris gets back to her feet and is met by Nakamoto, who delivers a sharp forearm, causing Harris to stumble back into the ropes, and Nakamoto clotheslines her out of the ring! She sees an opportunity, with Hurricane motionless in the middle of the ring, and ascends to the top rope. From there, she tries the Hātosutoppā (Kairi Hojo-style Diving Elbow Drop) and it connects! Nakamoto pops right back up to her feet, grabs Janet by the hair, and brings her to the corner. She lifts Janet into a seated position on the top rope, and starts to climb herself, looking for Ue Kara Shi (superplex, flowed into a sit-out Falcon Arrow). She hooks in for the superplex, and then Hailey Harris delivers an AXW Women’s Championship to Katsuko’s head! Katsuko falls straight back, landing towards the middle of the ring. Harris shoves Janet off the top rope and she tumbles onto the apron then to the floor. Harris enters the ring, drops to her knees, and hooks a leg on Nakamoto: One! Two! Three! Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner, and STILL the AXW Women's Champion, HAILEY HARRIS! Mike Vincent: Hailey Harris holds onto her title for another night, taking advantage of the situation with underhanded tactics, which of course, is all legal. Chris Pierce: Hailey Harris once held the record of longest single reign, and looks to once again hold that record. She currently sits at 126 days, she's 15 days away from tying her personal record, and 35 days from tying Olya Oglovska's record of 161 days. Cole Haywood: She's gonna hold onto this title for years! No one can touch Hailey Harris.
Hailey receives her title with a huge smile on her face. She celebrates before exiting the ring and making her way to the back, leaving her dejected opponents behind.

We return to ringisde where the AXW Cage begins to lower. It stops 10 feet above the ring. "Hear Me Now" plays throughout the arena and Malcolm M. Mitchell makes his way to the stage. He takes a moment to taunt, throwing shadow punches, then runs his hands through his hair and flicks the water off his hands, keeping his arms spread with his head up, soaking in the reaction from the crowd. Jen Brunelli: This next contest will be contested in an AXW Cage Match and is set for one fall! Introducing first, from Riviera Beach, Florida, weighing 214 pounds, MALCOLM M. MITCHELL! He walks down to the ring with confidence in every step. Malcolm enters the ring, climbs to the second turnbuckle, and does the same taunt he did on the stage. As Daniel Licht’s “Hide Your Tears” opens with a sweet Spanish guitar lick, the lights dim into a golden hue, as elegant script spelling out “The Tragic Hero” flashes over the video wall. Fhenix emerges, his back to us, clad in a golden wrestling robe. He turns as the song gets a bit darker and heavier in tone, golden pyros raining down behind him as he poses, arms outstretched with a smirk. Jen Brunelli: His opponent, representing The Alliance of Truth, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, weighing 240 pounds, he is "The Tragic Hero" JONATHAN FHENIX! He walks to the ring with smooth confidence, entering the ring and scaling a turnbuckle, actually cupping an ear and egging on the crowd for more hatred before leaping off with a sinister smirk, which slowly turns into an eerily focused, stern glance, a mastermind considering strategy before his match begins, his music fading out.   Gus Ramos has to keep the two separated while the cage lowers. When it does, the bell is rung and the two immediately go at it. The larger Fhenix backs Mitchell to the corner with his strikes. He lights up Malcolm's chest with some Knife edge chops. Malcolm grabs Fhenix and puts him in the corner and starts throwing strikes of his own. Fhenix ends up ducking down and lifts Malcolm for a Northern Lights Suplex into the turnbuckles. Fhenix picks Mitchell up from his heap and rams him face first into the cage wall. He does the same on the opposite wall. Fhenix slams Malcolm down with a Gutwrench suplex for a two count. Fhenix takes Malcolm back down with a Swinging neckbreaker, then pulls himself to the second turnbuckle for a Second rope elbow drop. Fhenix hooks a leg and gets another two. Fhenix pulls Malcolm to his feet and Malcolm kicks Fhenix in the gut. Malcolm runs the ropes only to be lifted by a Tilt a whirl backbreaker. He mounts Malcolm and pummels him with punches. He brings Malcolm back up, and throws him to the wall. Malcolm grabs a hold of the wall and stands on the ropes to stop the momentum. An approaching Fhenix receives a back kick to the face before Malcolm comes off with a moonsault to the standing Fhenix. Fhenix is right back up only to be taken back down with a cutter. Malcolm grabs Fhenix and throws him through the ropes, head first into the wall. Fhenix slumps down to the apron where Malcolm stomps away at him. Malcolm pulls him back in and slams him to the canvas with a Blue Thunder Bomb, getting a two count. Malcolm looks for a Faceplant (Fame Asser) but Fhenix catches him and plants him with a powerbomb. Fhenix hooks the arms of Malcolm for a Double underhook backbreaker. Fhenix slams Malcolm to the canvas with a Snap suplex. He lifts him back up for a Release German suplex. Malcolm tries to fight back with some punches but they're no use as Fhenix whips him to the ropes, lifting him high for a Stock Market Crash (D-Lo Brown's Sky High). Fhenix gets a two count and shakes his head. He sends Malcolm back to the ropes and lifts him for a modified Try To Breathe (High flap jack into the cage wall, followed by a stiff running kick aimed right at the throat). Fhenix pulls down his knee pad and clocks Malcolm with some Sudden Reality (Regal style running knee trembler). Fhenix tries to grab the legs of Malcolm to set up Fhenix Tears (Haas Of Pain), but Malcolm shoves him off. Malcolm is back to his feet but Fhenix is still on offense, as he sets up The Tragic Hero (Hard irish whip spun into a tilt a whirl sideslam but flowed through into an RKO), but Malcolm manages to counter with a headscissors. Zoey Mathews-Mitchell has comes down to ringside and slips a kendo stick through the chain link to Malcolm. Zoey heads back up the ramp and Malcolm does his best to keep the stick hidden. Fhenix is to his feet first and looks to pick Malcolm up, when he is struck with a kendo stick to the gut! Malcolm wails away on Fhenix with a kendo stick. Fhenix getting welts all over his body. Malcolm quickly bounces off the ropes and hits Fhenix with Sleep Tight (Busaiku Knee Kick)! One! Two! Three! Jen Brunelli: Here is your winner, MALCOLM M. MITCHELL! Mike Vincent: Malcolm went through hell in this match, but he manages to walk out as the winner. Cole Haywood: Are you just gonna ignore the pregnant woman that helped him cheat? The whole point of the cage having no doors and a roof is to prevent stuff like this from happening! Chris Pierce: That pregnant woman is his wife, Zoey Mathews-Mitchell, who also wanted some revenge on Jonathan Fhenix after he entered their home without permission.
Gus Ramos raises the hand of Malcolm. The cage begins to ascend and Malcolm gets out of the ring as soon as he can and hops the barricade, knowing that the Alliance of Truth would be on their way if he stayed, and sure enough they slide into the ring soon after. Duncan and A18 attend to Fhenix while we fade away.
-----
The scene opens inside of a large luxurious mansion and a huge crowd of people dressed to impress. They were commercing amongst each other, having conversations when the sound of "Boss Bitch" by the Millionaires begins to play in the middle as Rochelle was at the top of the swirling stairs, before she carefully strutted down the stairs, all the other guests' eyes fixated at her.
"Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees
Look at these hoes trying to get up on my main squeeze
Don't you know who the fuck I am, bitch please
Call me Hello Kitty, you be just a pussy
Uh, yo
And I'm better than the best of you
Always number one and you'll always be the number two
That awkward moment when I walk into the room
And I realize I'm the only bad bitch, move"
 "They be saying I'm a boss bitch I'm a boss bitch I'm a boss bitch, boss bitch They be hating I'm like nah bitch I'm like nah bitch I'm like nah bitch, nah bitch" The screen flashes to a render of Rochelle, followed by the graphic of her name glistening below it and a graphic on the bottom left side of the screen reading "Coming Soon" before the visual faded out to black. ----- The lights all go out and "Miseria Cantare" by AFI starts as a single spotlight shines on the entrance as Damien Steele is standing in the entrance hair in front of his face as at the 45 second mark of the song. Damien flips his hair back and starts to walk down to the ring, as the words of the song start. LOVE... YOUR HATE... Damien Steele makes no connection to any fans that might be throwing insults his way, almost as if he is only focused on the ring. YOUR... FAITH LOST... Steele reaches the ring as he walks around to the steps. YOU... ARE NOW... Damien waits at the bottom of the steps. ONE... OF US... A wicked smile comes across his face as the words of the song repeat again just a little bit faster this time. LOVE... YOUR HATE... YOUR... FAITH LOST... YOU... ARE NOW... ONE... OF US... Steele takes one step up the steps, still keeping his eyes locked on his opponent till he reaches the top step and wipes his feet before entering the ring. "Remedy" by Seether plays of the P.A. system as the camera pans over the arena stopping at the entrance way as Danny Hall,sporting a fur vest,strolls down to the ring stopping sometimes to yell at children,then when he gets to the ring he rolls under the bottom rope to sit in the corner then he stands up.....in the corner. Salvatore Pellegrino: This next contest is scheduled for one fall, and is for the AXW Light Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, the challenger, representing the Steve Corman Guys, from Chicago, Illinois, weighing 221 pounds, he is "The Vicious One" DAMIEN STEELE! Damien's hair is in his face, looking intensely across the ring at Danny Hall. Salvatore Pellegrino: His opponent, from Camden, Tennessee, weighing in at 220 pounds, he is the defending AXW Light Heavyweight Champion, "Mr. Most Hated" DANNY HALL! Danny raises his championship high.   Damien and Danny begin circling the ring as the ref rings the bell after the final introductions. They both shuffle closer to the center before locking up in a collar and elbow, they both struggle for position before Damien is able to pin Danny against the ropes. He decides to yank the champion off the ropes into a headlock to the middle of the center. Danny tries to twist out, but Damien maintains position and tightens the headlock! Danny elbows Steele in the gut before pushing him into the ropes and getting mowed down with a Shoulder Block by Damien, before he shoots off into the ropes as Danny turns over for the over/under as Damien comes flying over him and into the ropes again. Danny pops up and leapfrogs over the running Damien before catching him with a hard Back Elbow to the face! He dives into Damien with a lateral press, but the latter bridges out at a one count before turning back and rolling up the champ in a Magistrale Cradle for a one count. Both guys get back to their feet for a brief second before Danny catches him with a Small Package. Ref counts, but only gets a two count. The champ gets up, but Damien rushes at him with a Crucifix transitioned into a Sunset Flip for another two count. Both men rise up before Damien looks to end it early with an Avada Kevadra, but Danny ducks before rolling out of the ring with a frustrated look as the crowd begins to boo with Danny walking around the ring. Damien sneaks around the other side of the ring as Danny lifts the apron skirt and pulls out a kendo stick. Damien hops on the barricade, running along it and dives off as Danny turns around, hitting a Diving Clothesline! The fans begin chanting "AXW, AXW, AXW" as Damien starts to get back up. He looks down at the kendo stick dropped by Danny before picking it up just as Danny starts to get back up and turns around with wide eyes. He tries to wave Damien off, but only receives a hard Kendo Stick Shot to the gut! Damien then rises the stick up high before whipping it down hard over the hunched over Danny in the back. The blow brings Danny down to his knees as Damien checks under the ring and brings a trash can, along with the lid, and a steel chair into the ring as Danny slides into the ring, bringing himself up as Damien slides into the ring. He gets up, and gets waffled with a trash can lid shot in the head! Damien bounces back into the ropes before Danny brings him to the center of the ring and stacks him up on his shoulders before throwing him down with a Release Powerbomb. Danny for the cover, but Damien shoots the shoulder up at two. Danny hits the mat in frustration before picking up the kendo stick and brings Damien to a seated position, before choking him with the stick. Damien grabs the stick to save his life and starts to get up, but Danny stops him with a Kendo Stick Russian Legsweep. Danny measures Damien up before running to the ropes, clobbering the rising Damien with the Clothesline from Hall(Clothesline From Hell). Pinfall, but Damien kicks out right before the three count. Danny complains to the ref it was a three, but the latter stands firm on his two count. Danny then decides to bring the challenger up by his hair before attempting the lock in the Paradox(Crossface Chickenwing), but Damien runs around the ring and dives forward to cause the momentum to throw Danny through the ropes and out of the ring. Damien gets up to his feet as Danny goes back up. The challenger runs to the opposite set of ropes before bouncing back for a Vaulting Plancha! Danny moves as Damien catches himself out on the apron. The champ takes a swipe at Damien's feet, but the latter dodges and hits him with a back mule kick. Danny stumbles back as Damien springs off the ropes, taking him out with an Asai Moonsault to the outside! The fans show their appreciation with claps and "Oooh"'s as Damien starts to recover. He gets back to his feet before picking the Lightweight Champion up and rolling him into the ring. Danny rolls around and stamples up to his feet in a daze as Damien climbs along the apron. He springs off the top rope and zaps Damny just as he turns around with Springboard Knee to the head! Damien crawls over to Danny for the cover, but the champion keeps out at 2.9 to wide eyes and boos from the crowd. Damien sits up and runs his hair through his hair, thinking of what to do to put the champion away. Danny begins to get up to his knees as Damien hits him with Shoot Kicks to the chest, before picking up the trash can and placing it over Danny's head, before delivering the finishing touches with the Avada Kevadra!! The trash can falls out of Danny's body as he falls back before Damian goes for another cover, this time hooking the leg. One! Two! Thr- Danny barely gets the shoulder up right before the three count could be made, eliciting the "This Is Awesome" chant from the crowd. Damien grabs hold of the chair, and drops it at the center of the ring. He grabs Danny and slams him on it face first. Damien backs to a corner as he awaits Danny to get to his feet. Danny slowly starts to get to his feet, in a precarious position as the chair is under him. Damien rushes in and jumps into the air for the Loony Stomp, but Danny catches him on his shoulders, and drives him into the chair with the Hallway to Hell (Roode Bomb)! The count comes in: One! Two! Three! Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner, and STILL the AXW Light Heavyweight Champion, DANNY HALL! Mike Vincent: Danny Hall's road to superstardom continues, what a win for him over the first ever AXW Light Heavyweight Champion. Cole Haywood: Danny Hall was once a man who wasn't taken seriously, hell, there are still people out there who don't take him seriously, and this win over Damien Steele is as serious as it gets. Danny Hall is not to be taken lightly. Chris Pierce: Especially seeing as he's held the title longer than anyone. He's currently sitting at 203 days and counting. The next highest is Ryan Starr at 152 days.
Referee Shane Gates hands Danny his championship, who proudly raises it high into the air. Danny slowly makes his way to the back as we fade to advertisements.

“Say Hello” blares over the PA system as Anthony Royal slowly emerges through the curtain. He smirks and throws his arms above his head before strutting down the ramp. He mostly ignores the crowd, only occasionally taking the time to mock and berate them. Jen Brunelli: This next contest is set for one fall! Introducing first, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, weighing 227 pounds, ANTHONY ROYAL! As he approaches the ring, he hops onto the ring apron, looking back at the crowd, smirking and shaking his head in disgust before entering the ring. He then climbs to the nearest turnbuckle and stares out into the crowd before hopping down and waiting for the match to begin. The opening riffs of 'Pour Some Sugar on me' hits, and the arena goes dark with a single pink spotlight near the entrance. As the drums hit, Bobo comes out, flashing a bright smile, wearing a black pinstriped Chef's apron over his pink and black tights. He holds a tray in his hands which naturally contains samples of his cakes, that he baked to perfection. Jen Brunelli: His opponent, from Skaneateles, New York, weighing 238 pounds, he is "The Master Pâtissier" BOBO SWEETCAKES! He proceeds to feed the samples to the fans at ringside before sliding the tray underneath the ring. He climbs into the ring and throws his apron to the crowd.   Royal immediately attacks Bobo. He grabs Bobo and throws him shoulder first into the ring post. Royal pulls Bobo out and drops him to the mat with a German Suplex. Royal bounces off the ropes and whatever he was planning is ruined as Bobo catches him with the Leapfrog evasion into Sunset Flip. Bobo barely gets two on the pin. The two are up and Bobo evades an oncoming Royal with a cartwheel. Bobo lifts Royal up and connects with a Pop-up Cutter. Bobo exits the ring and lifts the skirt up, and pulls out a ladder. He goes to slide it into the ring but in comes Royal with the baseball slide, forcing the ladder into Bobo. Royal is out of the ring and picks up the ladder, and bridges it on the apron and barricade. He lifts Bobo to his feet and Bobo forces Royal back into the ring steps. Bobo slides Royal back into the ring, and reaches back under the ring, this time pulling out a table, which he successfully slides into the ring. Bobo re-enters and kicks Royal in the gut, then heads to the ropes for a running maneuver but is suddenly lifted up for a Flapjack from Royal. Bobo is able to get back to his feet and is struck with a Spinning Heel Kick. Royal whips Bobo to the ropes to deliver a Tilt-a-Whirl Backbreaker. Royal heads to the apron to climb the turnbuckles and comes off with a Flying Cross Body, getting a two count. Royal lifts Bobo up for a Vertical Suplex, then grabs the table and props it up in the corner. Royal takes Bobo off his feet with a hard European Uppercut. Royal berates some of the fans rooting for Bobo. When Royal brings his attention back to Bobo, we hear a loud bang as Bobo slams his cake tray on the head of Royal. Bobo goes for the pin. One! Two! Royal kicks out. Bobo hooks the waist of Royal as he delivers his German Suplex + Dragon Suplex + Tiger Suplex combo. Bobo picks Royal right back up for a Double Underhook Powerbomb. Bobo climbs to the top rope, and leaps off for the 220 Creme Brulee (Moonsault, but with only 220 degrees rotation instead of the usual 270, making it a high-angle Headbutt). Bobo hooks the outside leg but Royal still kicks out at two. Bobo lifts Royal up and sets him on the top turnbuckle, but Bobo's plan backfires as Royal delivers a Tornado DDT. Royal jumps into the air as he looks for Royal Mutilation (Shelton Benjamin’s “Pay Dirt”), but Bobo grabs hold of the rope and Royal falls back first on the mat. Bobo looks to drop an elbow but Royal moves. Royal slams Bobo down with a Belly to Belly Suplex. Royal takes a glance at the table in the corner and brings Bobo back to a vertical base. Royal sends Bobo towards the table but Bobo stops himself at the last second. Bobo nails Royal with a back elbow. Bobo hoists Royal up for a Dough Toss (Release Gutwrench Suplex) through the cornered table! Bobo covers him. One! Two! Royal kicks out once again. Royal is using the ropes to help himself back up. Bobo runs in at him but Royal back body drops Bobo over the top rope, and Bobo lands hard on the ladder, which doesn't give. Bobo winces in pain. Royal quickly heads to the top rope and dives onto Bobo with a Frog Splash, causing the ladder to buckle and the two falling to the floor. Royal gets Bobo back into the ring as quickly as he can. Royal then lifts Bobo up before dropping him head first to the canvas with Lights Out (Brainbuster)! One! Two! Three! Jen Brunelli: Here is your winner, ANTHONY ROYAL! Mike Vincent: Anthony Royal finally gets his comeuppance, a great showing from both competitors. Cole Haywood: Anthony Royal is exactly that - royalty. He shouldn't be wasting his time facing some baker from a small town in the middle of New York. Chris Pierce: That small town baker is one of the best competitors on the roster, and was the longest reigning Adrenaline Champion. Excuse the pun but beating Bobo isn't a cakewalk. Royal has his arm raised in victory. He climbs some turnbuckles and soaks in the crowd's jeers. He exits the ring, spots a Bobo Sweetcakes sign, grabs it, and rips it up with a smile on his face. He walks to the back raising both fists high. ----- We switch to a scene where the cameras are focused on the grass. The camera pans up, and we see carnival tents, some food vendors, various games and et cetera. The camera finds Bray Coleman, dressed in his tattered carny gear. Bray Coleman: Allow me to welcome you to the freakshow. Come, follow me. Bray leads the camera past about a dozen people who all look like they're straight from the freakshow, before we see Michael Veaga. Michael is on a stage, lifting a full barbell over his head with one hand. Bray steps onto the stage with him. Bray Coleman: Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes upon this tall and handsome strongman. This right here is no ordinary attraction. This is Michael Veaga. Along with I, Bray Coleman, we are Beauty and the Jekyll. Michael sets the barbell down and proceeds to lift up Bray. Michael does overhead presses with Bray. Michael Veaga: Our start in AXW may not be what we pictured, but rest assured, this carnival isn't going anywhere. We will become tag team champions one day, and it will be a ride you won't want to miss. The scene fades and we head back to ringside. ----- The opening chords of "The Right Direction" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus rolls throughout the arena. There’s a fountain of pyro at the three second mark as the song hits. Three spotlights shine and revolve around as if searching for someone, and the fans are on their feet, cheering in anticipation for the hero they know is coming. At the seven second mark, the hooded figure steps from behind the curtain and through the pyro looking down. The song builds to the fourteen second mark as he throws his hood back and arms out, fired up, as there’s a loud pop of orange and white pyro from the stage. Gabe Shelley responds to the cheers of the fans by pounding his chest and pointing out to them. The fans are positively crazy about Gabe. He begins to make his way to the ring and is sure to tap hands of fans on the ramp. Salvatore Pellegrino: This next contest is scheduled for one fall, introducing first, representing Tru Revolution, from Columbus, Ohio, weighing 220 pounds, here is "the reVolution" GABE SHELLEY! I will never understand the path you chose Chemical parasitic waste inside your bowels So wrap it up while you still can While you got the offer in I just can't believe That you'd throw it all away Now you falsely return today As you're falling on your face Shelley makes his way up the steel steps and jumps to the second turnbuckle and looks around the arena with a smile on his face. He jumps into the ring as his hood comes back up, landing on his feet. He goes to the middle of the ropes ropes facing camera side and jumps to the second one. He flips the hood back once again and makes finger guns at the camera and fires with a wink. "Too Drunk to Fuck" by the Dead Kennedys kicks in as a smirking Jack Adams comes jogging out from the back. He looks at the crowd, laughing to himself as he walks to the ring, all the while Adams is goading the fans and prevoking them, daring them to punch him, before feigning punching them himself. Generally, just being a bully. Salvatore Pellegrino: His opponent, representing the Steve Corman Guys, from Fort Payne, Alabama, weighing 230 pounds, he is "The Last Real Man" JACK ADAMS! Adams slides into the ring and being the dick he is, just yells to the hard camera "LAST REAL MAN ALIVE!"   Jack and Gabe start off face-to-face in the middle of the ring, jawjacking before Jack throws a haymaker that Gabe easily evades. Jack turns around to a string of forearm shots to the face, before reversing a whip from Gabe into a Snapmare. He then runs off the ropes and comes back as a victim to a Legsweep from Shelley. The latter bounces off the ropes and goes leaps over/under Jack before rebounding off the ropes again, ducking a clothesline before taking Adams down with a Running Hurricanrana! The crowd gives a small pop as Jack springs back up, rushing at Gabe with a Kitchen Sink, turning the cheers into boos. "Ahh, shut the hell up, you idiots. You knew I was gonna get him soon", Jack shouts before giving Shelley a Knife-Edge Chop to the chest to knock the latter back into the corner, before Jack peppers him with Kicks to the ribs. He then whips Shelley to the opposite corner before charging in for a clothesline that gets blocked with an elbow to the face. Jack stumbles back as Gabe turns around to hop on the second rope and leaps off with a Springboard Tornado DDT! Gabe covers, but Adam kicks out at 2 before rolling out of the ring, eliciting a few boos from the audience. Gabe meanwhile runs to the opposite set of ropes before bouncing off to attempt a Suicide Dive that Jack halts with a hard Punch to the head. Gabe stumbles back holding his face as Jack climbs up on the apron, but Gabe catches him with a picture-perfect Dropsault that knocks him off the apron. Jack starts to get back up as Gabe grabs the ropes and leaps over with a Slingshot Plancha, but Jack moves and Gabe lands on his feet on the outside, but falls to a seated position and clutches his right ankle. The ref immediately goes outside to check on him, but Gabe pushes him back as he uses the apron to bring himself up. Jack kicks him in the gut before lifting him on his shoulders, before running and throws him into the corner of the barricade with a Powerbomb! The crowd looks on, shocked and stunned as Jack takes a short breather before bringing Gabe back into the ring. Pinfall, but only gets a one count. This frustrates Jack, leading him to mount Shelley with a few punches to the forehead, before getting up and delivering the Alabama Stompdown (Garvin Stomp), stomping the right leg last. He then executes more punishment to the ankle with a Step-over Leg Breaker! Jack then throws his arms up, soaking in all the boos from the crowd, before grabbing Gabe's leg to go for the High-Angle Boston Grab, but Shelley flips him over with Small Package for a two count. Jack springs back up, but only gets caught with a Jackknife cover and again kicks out at two. Jack pops up to his feet again and wisely kicks Gabe right in his right leg, before hitting the Hangman's Neckbreaker. He grabs Shelley's hair, pulling him up before lifting up on his shoulders for a Powerbomb, and Shelley counters that Sunset Flip but Jack rolls back up to his feet and goes for the Meat Hook Lariat. Gabe lays flat to evade the blow before using his arm to bring himself up and takes Jack down with a Jersey Cutter (Twist of Fate). Gabe quickly scrambles to the cover, but Jack gets his shoulder up right before the three! Gabe then gets up, limping to the turnbuckle to climb up to the top but Jack cuts him off. Jack hits him with a few clubs to the back before loading Shelley up on his shoulders and walks out to the corner, looking to go for Gabe Shelley's own Cradle Shock, but Gabe reverses it into a Victory Roll! One!!! Jack grabs the bottom rope to try and break the pin. Two!!! Three!!! Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner, GABE SHELLEY! Mike Vincent: Gabe Shelley does it, he has defeated Jack Adams. Cole Haywood: Jack grabbed the rope though! In a normal match, Gabe wouldn't have won. Chris Pierce: Jack Adams was the one to pick this venue, and the no rope break rule must have slipped his mind as this is the one time a year when every match is contested as so.
The crowd explodes in cheers as Gabe is announced the winner. The reVolution himself evelates his right ankle as the ref raises his arm in victory as Jack throws a fit on the outside. He kicks over the steel steps and beats on the apron before grabbing a steel chair from under the ring and bangs it across the ring post.

The arena lights descend to darkness, as the tron displays an old black and white vision of an apocalyptic scene, as within a broken building we hear the crackle and zap of electricity, pulses of computers, as there, standing before the rubble is a figure in a denim jacket and tattered denim jeans. The figure turns slowly, and forms a smirk from under a pair of black Aviator shades. "Not even God can save you.." The crowd roars to "Not Even God" by Digital Summer, as some are booing, some cheering, an ice blue hue filling the ramp and entrance, a thin mist that under a spotlight has an eerie glow for one Duncan Aries! Aries has his back to us, looking down, before spinning around, arms crossed and head cocked in a smirk. Aries strides to the ring, paying no mind before tossing his shades into the crowd and leaping onto the apron. Entering the ring, Aries spins around, basking in the glow of the reaction, positive or negative, tossing off his jacket, yelling out "Because I'm Duncan Aries, motherfuckers!" as "Not Even God" fades out. begins to play. The crowd reacts with overall boos and jeers, but there is the small population of fans, for either nostalgia or just plain assholes, that cheer and do the hero worship wave, wearing Icon Merch. Big Stevie Cool walks out dressed in his classic BSC ring attire, black shiny side lace up pants and a black wrestling tank with "BSC" on the front. As well as a black elbow pad on his right elbow with "ICON" written in gold across it. He stops to look around the arena and the boos being thrown in his direction. Corman makes it very clear to the fans that “all of this” is because of Him. He smiles his cocky smile, then double thumb points to himself, taps his right index finger on his temple and slowly pans his left hand, index finger extended, around the arena; indicating that he’s smarter than each and every one of them, then Corman slowly raises his arms over his head, making the trademark Highrollers hand gesture (basically the wolfpack, while moving his thumbs around in the international sign for MONEY). He makes his way to the ring, as the A-Hole High Rollers fans cheer and do the "Icon" worship wave as Corman nods, points, and smiles at the camera. He climbs the stairs, planting each foot, and walks across the apron. He stops and the referee holds open the ropes as Corman enters the ring. Corman smirks and again repeats the High Rollers hand gesture by the ropes. Jen Brunelli: This is your Main Event set for one fall, and is for the AXW Championship! Introducing first, representing the Alliance of Truth, from San Diego, California, weighing 238 pounds, "The Wild Card" DUNCAN ARIES! Duncan holds up four fingers, signalling his fourth AXW Championship win tonight. Jen Brunelli: His opponent, from Hamilton, Ontario, weighing 275 pounds, "The Icon" STEVE CORMAN! Steve hoists his title into the air.   The two lock up with Corman executing the side headlock takedown. Aries breaks free and unloads with punches to Corman. Aries throws a kick but it's caught and turned into a Leg Hook Chokeslam from Corman. Corman grabs Aries' head and delivers the Coconut Smash (off knee). Corman springs off the ropes and delivers a Float over DDT. Corman goes to the outside and grabs the first chair of the match. He enters the ring and looks to crack Aries with it, but Aries hits him with the low blow. Aries grabs the chair and starts hammering on Corman. Aries lifts Corman up for a double powerbomb, both times slamming him onto the chair. Aries grabs the chair and ascends to the second rope, where he delivers a chair-assisted diving elbow drop. Aries hooks a leg and gets two. Aries goes to the turnbuckles and starts removing the padding. Corman unknowingly runs in and Aries steps aside, Corman running right into the exposed turnbuckle. Aries rolls Corman up and puts his feet on the ropes, still only two. Aries throws some stiff kicks to the sternum of Corman, until Corman catches one and slams Aries to the mat with a Dragon Screw. Corman delivers a Flip over leg breaker. Corman drags Aries to the corner and drives his leg into the ring post. Corman goes back in the ring to grab the chair before re-exiting, and thus sandwiches Aries' leg between the ring post and the chair shots. Corman slides back in and pulls Aries from the corner, and locks in a Canadian Conspiracy (Sharpshooter). Aries is in pain, but eventually manages to crawl to the ropes. This of course doesn't break, and Aries has to pull himself out of the ring to get Corman to let go. Corman exits the ring in pursuit of Aries and gets a surprise baseball bat to the gut, the first item that Aries could pull from under the ring. Aries gets in a batter's stance, winds the bat up, and swings as hard as he can into Corman's gut. Corman crumbles, falling to the floor in pain and coughing. Aries continues to use the weapon and uses it to choke Corman. Aries lifts Corman up and slams him head first into the ring post. Aries doesn't stop there and tosses Corman over the barricade. Aries climbs over and shouts "MOVE!" to a group of fans, who oblige. Aries manages to hoist Corman up, and drops him into the sea of empty chairs with a release vertical suplex. Aries dumps Corman back over the barricade and gets him back into the ring. Aries pulls out a trashcan and its lid from underneath the ring and brings them in. Aries clocks Corman over the head with the lid. Corman falls to the mat and Aries sits him up, before placing the can over him, and Aries yells "Right where you belong! Make yourself at home!" Aries then hits a low dropkick. Aries removes the can and leaves it on the mat. He starts to bring Corman back to his feet. Corman hits him with some elbows to the gut, then runs to the ropes. Aries catches him with a snap powerslam. Aries lifts Corman up before slamming him on the trashcan with the San Diego Driver (Full Nelson pickup released into a wheelbarrow facebuster). Aries rolls him over and covers, but the count is broken up by Jack Adams. Damien Steele soon joins Jack, and with both being frustrated over their respective losses, take out all their aggression on Duncan Aries. Jonathan Fhenix and Android 18 come down to Aries' aid, and both teams engage in a brawl. The Corman Guys gain the upper hand and pull some tables from underneath the ring. They set three tables up on each side of the ring save for the camera side. They keep The Alliance down, which allows Corman to lift Fhenix up, and chuck him out of the ring through a table with an Icon Bomb (Running Powerbomb)! Damien Steele lifts Android 18 onto the top turnbuckle. Damien superplexes Android from the top through a ringside table, which takes as much out of him as it did Android! Only when AoT member is left: Duncan Aries. Jack Adams brings a fading and hurt Aries up to the top rope. Both are standing on top in a precarious position. Adams doubles Aries over, and eyes the table, the fans in anticipation as they can't believe Adams is setting up the Gotch-Style Piledriver on the top rope and is about to deliver it through a table to the floor. Aries manages to bring himself down to the apron however, and military tosses Adams off the top rope and through the last table. Aries is then blasted off the apron by Corman. Personnel come down to clear the excess bodies from ringside. Corman exits the ring and starts to disassemble the announce table. He grabs a monitor and cracks it over Aries' head. Corman lays Aries on the table and slides into the ring. Corman starts climbing the turnbuckles and the crowd can't believe this 46-year-old-man is about to do what he's about to do. Corman, standing on the top turnbuckle, removes his "ICON" elbow pad, tosses it into the crowd, and dives off with a Superstar Elbow (Test-esk flying elbow) on Aries through the announce table! Corman takes a minute to get up, but gets Aries into the ring and covers, getting two due to the amount of time it took both to get back into the ring. Corman starts to lift Aries up, Aries punches Corman in the face and he drops. We see that the punch was loaded as Aries slipped on some brass knuckles. Aries hobbles out of the ring to grab a chair. Aries slides the chair in, then slides in himself. Aries starts to get to his feet, and suddenly is driven face-first into the chair from a Faceplant (Fame Asser) by Malcolm M. Mitchell! Mitchell pulls a coming to Corman onto Aries as Matt Baker counts the pin. One! Two! Three! Jen Brunelli: Here is your winner, and STILL the AXW Champion, STEVE CORMAN! Mike Vincent: Steve Corman hangs onto his title but not without help from Malcolm M. Mitchell, who in a way, defeated the entire Alliance of Truth tonight. Cole Haywood: If Malcolm knows what's good for him, he'll throw his morals aside and join the Corman Guys. Otherwise, he's a dead man. Chris Pierce: And with this win tonight, Steve Corman sits at 116 days as AXW Champion, three days away from tying the longest single reign set by David Slayton.
Matt Baker raises the hand of Steve Corman after handing him his championship. Steve walks to the ropes and asks for something, and is handed a folded piece of black fabric. He walks back to Malcolm who is still in the ring. We hear Corman say, "I knew you'd come to your senses," and hands the cloth to Malcolm. Malcolm takes it and opens it up, it's of course the "I'm a Steve Corman Guy" t-shirt. We can see Malcolm considering joining the dark side so to speak, but ultimately, he shoves the shirt back into Corman's chest and exits the ring. Corman goes back to celebrating his win.
Mike Vincent: Ladies and gentlemen thank you for watching Anarchy! Make sure to catch the fallout as AXW hits tv next week on ION!
