Episode V
Mike Vincent: Welcome everyone to the debut of AXW on ION TV! ...And it looks like we're gonna start things off right away...
Cameron Kennedy Rockefeller is making his way to the ring. He doesn't seem to care about the show intro, or that "We Are" was still playing when he came out. "We Are" of course faded out, and Cameron isn't clad in the expensive suits that he once donned. His nose is taped from the Ryan Starr dropkick at Rise, a minor break. He walks around the ring, on his way towards the timekeeper's area. He's demanding for a microphone before he even gets there, everyone reluctant to hand him one. When he gets there, he snatches the one from Salvatore. He then climbs into the ring.
Cameron Kennedy Rockefeller: Is everybody happy now? Huh? Are you happy? Yeah, go on, cheer! Cheer for Duncan Aries! Cheer for Luke Mathews! Cheer because this is what you all wanted to happen. You're all too stupid to realize the way of integrity, and now, integrity is dead. And for what? For a fairy tale ending of a year long feud? Duncan Aries has slayed the dragon and rode off into the sunset with his princess Luke Mathews. Well, turns out there's a sequel. The dragon's still alive and he's gonna put an end to everything. August 31st I will put an end to Duncan Aries, Luke Mathews, and AXW!
"This Fire Burns" hits and Luke makes his way to the ring.
Luke Mathews: I'm glad you've brought it upon yourself to come out here because there's something I need to tell you as well as Duncan Aries. While I assure that there will be no end to me or AXW in the near future, there will an end to this feud between you and Aries. August 31st at Anarchy will see the main event of Duncan Aries vs. C.K., for the AXW Championship. The winner is AXW Champion, the loser... has his AXW contract immediately terminated.
Cameron Kennedy Rockefeller: Speaking of terminated contracts... what ever happened to Jonathan Fhenix? That guy had the right idea. He spoke the truth about your nepotism and then it seems he was kicked right out the door.
Luke Mathews: Jonathan Fhenix lost one match and went crazy. Truth be told, I didn't fire him because of what he said, I fired him because he asked me to. He wanted to go to the Crusade. Jonathan Fhenix would rather spend a month trapped on a boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. What sane person would do that?
Of course, "Playing the Saint" takes over and out walks the AXW Champion, Duncan Aries. Clad in a denim jacket, with the title slung over his shoulder. He takes a pause on the stage before walking down the ramp and into the ring.
Duncan Aries: I still don't buy this. This is all an act. A poorly planned act, seeing as your guys' "falling out" happened too soon and abruptly. I know that Anarchy will just be a way for you two to screw me over and get me fired. Just know that I'm not going down with a fight.
Duncan lowers his mic and stares a hole through CKR, and CKR does the same. It looks like we're just seconds away from a fight, when Luke steps in between them.
Luke Mathews: As I said, this year-long feud is coming to an end. It's gonna end the same way it started... Decisions Count Anywhere!
Duncan Aries: Well, C.K., I hope your ready to be embarrassed yet agai-
Luke Mathews: Hold on there, champ, I'm not done. You see, your Falls Count Anywhere match in CCW was good, but I have an added twist to make this match even better and ensue it goes out with a big of a bang as possible. CKR, in the past you've said that Aries' win was a fluke. Well, to make sure that the best man does truly win, this match will not just be a normal Decisions Count Anywhere match, no no no, it will be........ A TWO OUT OF THREE DECISIONS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH!
The crowd pops huge.
Mike Vincent: That's huge!
Luke Mathews: But wait, there's more! You see, neither of you seem to like me. And because I'm a mutual enemy between the two of you, that makes me the perfect candidate to be the special guest referee. Tonight, we'll get a small preview of what's to come at Anarchy, as CKR and James Galleon take on Ryan Starr and Duncan Aries in a tag team match. Now, if you'll excuse me, we need to get this show rolling.
Duncan Aries looks on at Luke and CKR as he exits the ring. He walks up the ramp, facing away from the ring. Luke takes this time to say something to CKR.
Mike Vincent: Wait, what's he saying to CKR?
Benji Mathews: They're still in cahoots. I know Luke better than anyone.
*****COMMERCIALS*****
The base hits hard from the beat as 'We Own It' Blares out the pa system. Out from the back, Nick Magnum walks out wearing his long black trench coat.
Salvatore Pellegrino: This contest is set for one fall, introducing first, from London, England, weighing in at 184 pounds, NIIIICK MAAGNUUM!
He climbs into the ring and taunts the crowd before removing his ring jacket and posses to the crowd once more before getting for the match at hand.
As the lights go out and turn a crimson shade of red, the intro to "House Of 1000 Corpses" by Rob Zombie begins to play, creepy, horror-movie-esque clips on the screen, glorifying some of the most notorious serial killers of all time. Finally, the music kicks in as lightning strikes the side of the stage as a ring of fire ignites on the side of the stage as Reverend Robert Banks rises from the platform, at a wooden podium with an upside-down pentagram carved into it, laughing psychotically, eyes wandering everywhere like a madman as he steps out of the flames in a trance, flashing a sick, depraved smile with his eyes nearly rolled into the back of his head as he walks to the ring with a hatchet in one hand and a sickle in the other.
Salvatore Pellegrino: And his opponent, from The Compound, weighing 282 pounds, he is "The Psychopathic Savior of Sadism" REVEREEEND ROOOBEEEERT BAAAAANKS!
He then sets his implements of destruction inside the ring on the apron as he slides in, laughing manically at the fear in the eyes of the fans as he sits in the corner, a devilishly evil grin etched on his face.
Mike Vincent: This guy is scary.
vs. 
The bell sounds. Nick walks to the center of the ring, expecting to start off with a lock up. Banks remains standing in his corner, with an evil grin on his face. He decides to meet Nick in the center of the ring, but doesn't lock up. He instead grabs the face of the smaller Magnum, applying a claw. Nick Magnum lets out some screams, as the ref notices Banks has a finger in the eye. The ref forces a break. Nick falls to the mat, hand over his eye, and crawls to a corner. The referee goes to check on him but Banks charges at Nick, kicking him in the head, sandwiching his head between the boot of Banks and the turnbuckle. Banks grabs Nick by his ankle and drags him out of the corner. Banks bends over and grabs Nick by throat, picking him up by the throat. He takes a good moment to just stare at Nick, the ref trying to break the choke, before Banks picks him up and plants him head first with a Final Judgment for the decisive three count.
Salvatore Pellegrino: The winner of this match, Reverend Robert Banks!
Robert reaches into his pockets and pulls out two coins, placing them over the eyes of Magnum. He asks for and is given a microphone.
Reverend Robert Banks: Allow me to introduce myself. I am Reverend Robert Banks. I am here to save you all from false idols, false saviors. You see, I wouldn't've had a problem with Sean Prodigy, but he calls himself a "Wrestling Messiah". I debuted at Rise and targeted Sean Prodigy because he is NOT a messiah! Sean isn't even a prodigy, let alone a messiah. You wanna see what I do to people who claim to be a messiah?...
He drops the microphone, and goes to the corner where he left his hatchet, and retrieves it. He goes back over to Nick Mangum, kneels down, holds the back of Nick's head, before cutting his forehead with the hatchet.
Mike Vincent: Oh my God! This guy's a lunatic!
Benji Mathews: This guy is awesome.
"Letter From a Thief" hits and out runs Sean Prodigy to the ring. He tackles Banks to the mat, Banks dropping his hatchet in the process. Sean gets a few punches in before Banks squirms out of the ring. Banks backs up the ramp, with an evil grin and wagging his finger. He yells out: "We do this on MY TERMS!" before laughing sadistically. Sean picks up the hatchet, looks at it, and throws it up the ramp towards Banks. It misses, and Banks just continues to laugh.
Meanwhile, in Luke Mathews' office, he's reading some paper work. Suddenly, a nunchuck to the desk which scares the fucking shit out of him.
Luke Mathews: Jesus Christ, Trent! would you quit playing with that thing?! Did you not see the sign on the door?!
The camera pans out to see everybody's favorite trio, Chicks & America.
Hoffman LeGrand: I thought that didn't apply to us.
Trent Mathews: Yeah, and I'm family.
Luke Mathews: I'll let it slide this one time. What do you want?
Trent Mathews: Thought I'd let you know that I did it!
Luke Mathews: Did what?
Trent Mathews: I beat Sean Prodigy! I did what you were never able to do! I am THE GREATEST NINJA THAT EVER LIVED!
Luke facepalms.
Trent Mathews: So, what else you got? I'll take on anybody!
Luke's face lights up.
Luke Mathews: Anybody?
Trent Mathews: Yeah, dude.
Luke Mathews: Fallen Angel. Tonight.
The three members of C&A are taken aback.
Trent Mathews: Oooo... tonight? I think I'm gonna be busy that day...
Ricky Diamond: Yeah, we were gonna... uh...
Hoffman LeGrand: ....Massage Bob Barker.
Ricky Diamond: What the hell is it with you and Bob Barker?!
Luke Mathews: Non-negotiable. Fallen Angel vs. Trent tonight. Ricky you have a match next too. Go get ready.
Trent and Ricky look at each other before leaving. Hoffman leans up against a wall, and lights a cigarette. Luke grabs a spray bottle off his desk and starts spraying Hoffman.
Luke Mathews: Would you get out?! Go!
Hoffman LeGrand: Dude, not cool, man!
Hoffman says as he leaves the room.
*****COMMERCIALS*****
vs. 
The match ended in a no contest after interference from both teams.
Tara stands backstage with Caitlin Shay, a huge smile on her face.
Caitlin Shay: I'm here with Tara Sindarin, and Tara, at Rise, you attacked Brandi Lyn Badd, then known as Ms. Integrity from behind, and we saw some things from you that weren't exactly, well...like you.
Tara Sindarin: Well, Caitlin, I'm glad that this was brought up. This is just a story to show you exactly what can happen in the heat of the moment, it really doesn't matter who you are. You could be one of the worst or best people in the world, and these things happen. We are all born in sin, it's up to you to decide how you want to work that out. I do want to apologize though for what happened, I should never have burst out the way that I did, and I'm sorry that everyone had to see me like that.
Caitlin: Right, and this was because a few weeks back, she had interfered in your match in the name of integrity.
Tara Sindarin: Yes. She thought she had all the answers when we were discussing integrity, but it all turned out to be lies. I just hope she can find it in herself to see that she's been going about these things the wrong way, and that she comes back to see the light before it's too late to save her.
Tara appears to be completely sympathetic toward Brandi Lyn for all of her wrongdoings and she shakes her head in sadness.
Caitlin Shay: And if you could tell Brandi Lyn one thing right now, what would it be?
Tara Sindarin: Brandi, if you're watching this, I would love to tell you that I am constantly keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, and I hope that you see how bad of a person you're becoming and decaying into. I know that there's a good person in there somewhere, and you just need to let her out. I will be sure to continue to pray for that.
Caitlin Shay: Do you really think prayer will be enough to save her though?
Tara Sindarin: I'm not sure, Caitlin. The Lord works in the most mysterious of ways, but it's always worth a shot. He's a good Lord, and I'm sure he knows what's in Brandi Lyn Badd's best interest. I just hope that she'll let him do the job that I know that he's capable of. God bless you for your concern as well.
Caitlin looks just somewhat puzzled as Tara heads off camera and we cut.
vs. 
The crowd cheers when they hear "It Was a Dark and Stormy Night" by Five Iron Frenzy play over the system. Hailey Spunk appears on the stage as pink lights strobe around the arena. The crowd continues to cheer her on as she gets them pumped up, jumping up and down, when suddenly she's hit from behind by Brandi-Lyn!
Mike Vincent: Wow, she didn't take long at all, did she?
Benji Mathews: Well, she's Badd.. Maybe bad timing is a part of that?
Brandi drags Hailey down to the ring and rolls her into the ring, sliding in right after her, looking at the official to ring the bell, giving him the stink eye until he does so, then she starts to stomp ruthlessly on Hailey. Hailey crawls to the ropes, and Brandi-Lyn pulls her by the hair to her feet, but Hailey hits her with an elbow, then spins around, executing a perfect spinning heel kick, and both women go to the mat for a second. Hailey gets to her feet first, walking over to a corner. Brandi-Lyn gets up and runs after her, but Hailey senses that she's coming and ducks, taking a step back and shoving Brandi-Lyn into the turnbuckle. Brandi-Lyn gets off of it and turns around to be met with a Tilt-a-Whirl Headscissors, and she rolls out of the ring from the momentum of the move.
Mike Vincent: Wow, Hailey came here to wrestle, and wrestle she shall!
Brandi-Lyn slides into the ring, and Hailey charges at her, ducking a clothesline, bouncing off the ropes, and coming back with a crossbody. She hooks the legs, but Brandi-Lyn with the shoulder up before she can even get a count. Hailey heads over to the corner, hopping up onto the top turnbuckle and turning to face Brandi-Lyn, who is still getting up, and she hits her with a Missile Dropkick. Hailey smiles, and the crowd cheers, but not at Hailey right this second.
Benji Mathews: Wait a minute...why is Tara Sindarin on the stage, and she's coming down here!
Tara is, in fact, on her way down the ramp, and she walks around the ring, keeping an eye on the match, while Brandi-Lyn starts to throw some punches at Hailey, who keeps attempting to dodge them, with the occasional shot hitting her. Tara takes a seat at the timekeeper's table, and the match continues, most people thinking Brandi-Lyn still doesn't even notice her. She kicks Hailey, forcing her into a corner, and charges at her, hitting her with a Clothesline that squishes Hailey into the corner. Hailey stumbles out, and Brandi-Lyn picks her up, sending her right bak into the mat with a Samoan Drop. She gets to her feet and sees Tara, who is now standing just a couple feet from the ring, and she starts shouting obscenities at Tara, who opens her mouth as though she's shocked at the profanity. Brandi-Lyn shrugs her off and turns around, being met by Hailey and her Spunk Funk, then Hailey covers, picking up the victory!
Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner.... HAILEY SPUNK!
The crowd cheers as Tara heads up the ramp slowly, looking back at Brandi, who is clearly incredibly furious by what just transpired.
*****COMMERCIALS*****
The crowd looks up to the stage in wonder as "In Flames" by Cloud Connection hits the PA system. They continue to wait to see who the new arrival is as a masked female wrestler runs out on the stage, spinning around in a 360 with her arms out to the sides. She looks around at the fans, waving her arms up and down in an attempt to get them pumped up, which gets her some applause, so it clearly worked.
Salvatore Pellegrino: The following match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Poznan, Poland... The Flying Enigma.... Mariposa!
Mariposa runs to the ring and slides in, getting to her feet excitedly and she runs over to a turnbuckle, jumping up onto the second one as she holds her arms out. She smiles and does a perfect backflip and lands on her feet as she turns around to face the stage, leaning back against the corner as she awaits the opposition. Blue strobe lights replace the regular lighting and they begin to pulse and the fans seem to get into some sort of trance as the intro to "Titanium" hits, causing a pop. Once we hear the verse, we see Janet Hurricane come from behind the curtain, her hoodie hiding her face. She hops up and down, yet we still can't see her face.
Salvatore Pellegrino: And her opponent...from Charlotte, North Carolina.... Janet Hurricane!
Janet reveals her face to the fans now as she takes in the energy, shadow punching and kicking on the stage for a few seconds to cheers from the crowd. She then looks down the ramp at Mariposa in the ring, and she starts on her way, slapping hands with the fans on her way as she slides into the ring. She backs into the corner opposite Mariposa, and the ref makes sure both women are ready to start.
vs. 
Mike Vincent: ...and this match is underway!
Both women circle the ring for a few seconds before locking up. Janet gets the quick advantage, turning the lockup into an armbar, twisting the arm of Mariposa and getting behind her as she jacks the arm up behind Mariposa's back. Mariposa flails at first, almost panicking, but she stops, and starts to resist it, and is able to pull it down to a reasonable spot. She throws an elbow to try to get Janet, which misses, but Janet has to duck and lets go. Mariposa turns around and looks for a quick Enziguiri, but Janet sidesteps, and Mariposa goes to the mat, but gets right back up. She whips Janet to the ropes, and Janet bounds off the ropes, coming back and hitting Mariposa with a Crossbody, hooking her legs for the cover.

Mariposa with a shoulder up pretty early, and Janet gets to her feet, backing into the corner as Mariposa gets up. They lock up again, and this time Mariposa sends Janet to the mat with an arm drag. Janet gets up and Mariposa hits her with a clothesline, and Janet hurries to her feet, getting hit with another one. Mariposa gets to her feet and hops up and down, her blood pumping. She runs over to the corner, hopping up onto the top turnbuckle and turning herself around. Janet gets up and Mariposa hits her with a final diving Clothesline that gets the crowd into a huge pop. She covers.

Benji Mathews: Wow, this Polish girl is crazy!
Mariposa gets to her feet and gets the crowd pumped up, before hitting Janet Hurricane with a running crossbody, but her momentum causes her to roll out of the ring before she can attempt a pin. She gets up and leans on the apron, sliding in and lying in wait for a second before hopping to her feet. Her and Janet both get to their feet and Janet hits her with a dropkick. Janet hops to her feet and walks over to Mariposa, grabbing her and pulling her to her feet, hitting her with a few knee lifts before planting her in the center of the ring with a DDT. She lays on the mat catching her breath for a couple seconds before covering Mariposa.

Kickout and the crowd is way pumped up right now. Janet gets to her feet and looks at Mariposa, who gets on her knees and shakes the cobwebs for a second, and when she sees Janet, she gets hit with a boot to the face. Janet smiles, seeing her beautiful situation, and when Mariposa gets up, she's met with the Wrath of the Hurricane, and she quickly covers!

Salvatore Pellegrino: Here is your winner.... Janet Hurricane!
This is where a segment regarding the Hargrave/Jacobs storyline will take place. It will be edited in the future once I receive it.
The opening riff of "Dammit" kicks in and when the whole band enters, Trent explodes from the curtain, with his Chicks and America comrades behind him. He gets pumped up before making his way down the aisle.
Salvatore Pellegrino: This contest is set for one fall, introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Chicks and America, from Owasco, New York, weighing in at 217 pounds, TREEEEEEEEENNNTTT MAAATHEEEEWWSSS!
He high fives some fans before sliding into the ring. He climbs onto the nearest turnbuckle and scans the crowd, before climbing down.
The opening chill and beat of “Hell” by Disturbed comes forth from the PA system, red strobelights pulsing to the beat, a very eerie hue of red. When the guitar and roar of vocals hit, flames explode. Through the smoke comes Fallen Angel, clad in a long crimson colored trenchcoat, which is covering his black t-shirt and matching leather pants. He holds a black scepter cane in his hand as he begins his slow walk to the ring, a truly sinister stare plastered on his face.
Salvatore Pellegrino: And his opponent, from Devil's Tower, Wyoming, weighing 280 pounds, "The Epitome of Evil" FALLEEEEENNNNN AAAAAAANGEEEEELLLL!
He pays no mind to the crowd and reaching the steel steps enters the ring. Holding up his arms, gazing up at the heavens, he then slams his arms down, causing flames to erupt from all four posts in the ring. Sliding off his jacket and placing it next to his cane in a corner, he prepares for his encounter.
vs. 
The bell sounds and Trent is quite reluctant to do anything. He musters the courage to go in for a lock up. Fallen Angel brings his arms up, as if he were to lock up, but instead wraps both hands around Trent's neck, lifts him into the air and slams him down on the mat. Trent gets no offense in as Angel dominates. Fallen Angel's domination culminates with Trent being thrown into the ring post. Trent would remain slumped on the middle turnbuckle, and Angel would go out to the apron then climb the turnbuckles over him. Angel brings Trent up with him, before bringing him back into the ring with Sweet Revenge for the win.
Salvatore Pellegrino: The winner of this match, Fallen Angel!
Fallen Angel then threw Trent out of the ring, landing in front of his Chicks and America team mates. Fallen began to slowly make his way out to the apron, to which Ricky Diamond and Hoffman LeGrand would quickly lift Trent up, carelessly throw him over the barricade, before going over the barricade themselves and dragging Trent through the crowd, escpaing what seemed to be a soon-to-be Fallen Angel attack. Fallen laughs at the mere mortals running through the crowd before he would start to make his way up the ramp. Before he gets halfway up the ramp, Marilyn Manson's rendition of "This is Halloween" started to play, causing Fallen to halt and stare towards the entrance confused. When the vocals start, walks out a man. The man is quite large, clad in mostly red, a mask with long brown hair, and a rope slung over his shoulder.
Mike Vincenrt: That's... that's Xavier Anderson!
Xavier walks down the ramp, meeting Fallen Angel. Fallen says a line we've heard before:
Fallen Angel: You're not worth my time.
Fallen walks around Anderson. Anderson grabs his rope off of his shoulder and whips Angel in the back. Angel cringes in pain, but remains standing. Xavier grabs Angel and rams him into the stage display. Anderson grabs Angel by the throat, and forces him to the edge of the stage. Anderson looks for a chokeslam but Angel kicks him in the gut. Anderson backs up a bit, grabbing his stomach, before running at Angel. Angel counters by back dropping Anderson off the stage, crashing through some tables!
Mike Vincent: Someone needs to help Xavier!
Fallen Angel looks down ant Xavier, smiling, before making his way to the back. After Angel leaves, Anderson sits right up.
*****COMMERCIALS*****
We return from commercial to see Cameron Kennedy Rockefeller already halfway to the ring, sporting no music.
Salvatore Pellegrino: This is your main event, a tag team match set for one fall! Introducing first, from Manhattan New York, weighing 195 pounds, CAMERON KENNEDY ROCKEFELLER!
Cameron enters the ring and waits.
“Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi (Carmina Burana)” by Nota Profana begins to dynamically ring through the air as the lights dim and a curtain of golden sparks falls and blankets the entrance way. After the drums roll and the music settles into its next phase, the spark curtains begin to move to the sides to reveal James Galleon standing and smiling smugly in the entrance way wearing some fancy-looking blue robes.
Salvatore Pellegrino: And his partner, from London, England, weighing 235 pounds, "Diamond" JAAAMES GAAALLEEEOOON!
He walks down the ramp, spinning a few times to make sure that the audience is admiring his presence as a golden fireworks display goes off on the ramp behind him. He makes his way down to the ring, being sure to flirt with a couple of women and occasionally mouthing off to people in the audience and the ringside crew. Once he gets to the ring, he quickly makes his way up the stairs and along the apron, ducking between the ropes and spinning once again in the center of the ring before bending down on one knee and delivering a very regal looking bow with a smug grin on his face. He goes to his corner and jumps up onto the turnbuckle, raising his arms out arrogantly before taking his spot to start the match.
Radioactive by Imagine Dragons plays as Ryan comes out from behind the curtain.
Salvatore Pellegrino: And their opponents, first, from Tampa, Florida, weighing 195 pounds, RYAAAAAN STAAAARRRR!
He stands and looks out into the crowd. 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.
"Playing The Saint" by Digital Summer blares as ice blue strobelights pulse and flash. Aries emerges in his taped wrists, and ice blue leather pants with a spade printed on each leg. Aries looks out at the crowd who give him a mixed reaction, bumps his fists together and walks down the ramp to the ring.
Salvatore Pellegrino: And his partner, from San Diego, California, weighing 238 pounds, he is the AXW Champion, "The Spade" DUNCAAAAAAAAN AAAAARRRIIIEEEESSS!
He slides under the ropes into the ring and leaps up onto a turnbuckle, another look at the crowd, before jumping off and throwing some kicks and punches as his music fades.
vs.
It would start off with Aries vs. Galleon, where Aries has most of the control. Aries would tag out to Starr. Starr picks up where Aries left off, but Galleon would turn the tables and take control. Galleon tags out to CKR. CKR tells Starr to tag in Aries, and when he turns around to do so, CKR attacks him from behind, showing more of a vicious side than usual. CKR keeps Starr grounded, and tags back out to Galleon. Galleon keeps control until a kick from Starr catches him out of nowhere. Galleon looks to tag back out, but CKR drops from the apron and leaves through the crowd. Galleon is now yelling out at CKR, not paying attention to his opponents. Starr tags back out to Aries, who traps Galleon in an Ace of Spades for the victory.
