Daniel: Welcome everyone to WPW Turmoil, I'm Daniel Justice and with me as always is Max Stockton, and as a treat to all of you our first match will be for the pure....
Carlos Gonzales Music hits and he walks down to the ring with a scattering of boos. He grabs a mic and begins to speak.
Carlos: You people have to understand... No, You need to know something. Long ago when I started WPW, I was a hero to all of you, to the wrestlers, to the fans, and to the wrestling public. People respected this product, and respected me. You people though, all of you... took Me, no.. this company for granted. Everyone started to criticize the product, no one gave me any respect for what I have built. You all forgot what this company stood for! So I have do what was necessary for you to remember what made me so special, so I brought in Mike Adams. Not to save it, but not to kill it. I gave the word Mike Adams to show how far along I was from him, how much better I was then him! But he didn't do as bad as I thought, so I had to make him look crooked, I had to make him look evil. All... All I wanted to do was comeback and show you who I am, and what I can....
Sal Karver's music hits and the crowd boos heavily. He walks towards Carlos in the ring and grabs his mic away. Carlos looks confused because he just interrupted his monologue.
Sal: You hear that? They hate me now, because I'm not one of your golden boys. I can't walk in you office and whisper sweet nothings into your ear like them can I Carlos? No, just like all the other young guys around here, I'm just your little puppet meant to play as fonder for your boring heel stable. I'm here to tell you now, it didn't work for Royalty and it isn't working now.
No instead of let you control my career, I'm going to change. I'm sick all of your stupid booking decisions, and all of you unnecessary turns. Look around, no one cares anymore! This show is nothing! For so long, I've been a defender of our product, I've turned down better contracts at better companies, and I've done it because I was drinking your cool aid. Not anymore, these fans deserve better, we all deserve better!
I want to be released from my contract right now.
Carlos looks around, but gives his answer.
Carlos: No. I'm not going to make out competitors bet....
Sal slaps him across the face, and then security rushes the stage and we cut directly to commercial.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Amy: Welcome back to WPW Turmoil, brought to you by Frank's Furniture, why go to IKEA when you can buy from the little guy and pay twice the price? We’re here backstage with Jermiah Daniels.
Jermaine: Jermaine… Jermaine Daniels.
Amy: Oh yes, sorry about that, Jermaine Daniels. Jermaine, can you tell us why you’ve decided to turn your back on the fans who were cheering you? Many people were very upset with your words this week.
Jermaine: Who cares if they were upset, I’m upset too Amy, but at the end of the day I still know your name.
Amy looks ashamed but continues.
Amy: So is it because they’re not paying enough attention? In Do you feel like no one knows who you are?
Jermaine: No one does know who I am, it’s a complete joke. I’m from the Bronx, I know what it’s like to be just another face in the crowd, but…. FUUUUCK!
Suddenly Jermaine Daniels pulls away from the microphone and clutches his forearm. Amy looks confused and looks around.
Amy: Um… Ah…
Jermaine: Fuck me, I got the worst cramp in my arm. Can we start this promo over?
Amy: Um…
Jermaine: C’mon, you can even get my name right this time.
Amy: Well, we’re kinda… live…
Jermaine: …We are?
Jermaine and Amy stand looking at one another for a long awkward moment before the segment just abruptly ends, and the camera is back on Daniel and Max at ringside, who clearly weren’t ready either as Daniel is still shuffling his notes and cue cards and Max is busy picking his nose. Daniel notices the shot is on them though and elbows Max in the side.
Daniel: Ahem, uh. We apologize for that ladies and gentlemen.
Max: What is that? Our new slogan?
Daniel: What?
Max: ‘We Apologize’ blah blah blah. Maybe we should just open Turmoil with that Timbaland song.
Daniel: You mean One Republic?
Max: No, I mean the better version by Timbaland that goes Ay ay ay in the chorus.
Daniel: Whatever Max, I’ve never seen a TNT start off so… What’s the word?
Max: Bad?
Daniel: Eh… Well… Yeah.
Golden Opportunity - Pure Title Match
Justin Dreamer(c) vs Titus
Mina Henderson: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following match will take place under 'Pure Rules' and it is for the WPW Pure Title!!!
Daniel: A quick reminder of the rules here, folks; It's a Pure title match so it's under "Pure Rules". Everything runs as normal inside the ring, but anything and everything goes outside of it! That means you can and will be disqualified if you break regular WPW rules while in the squared circle, but anything and everything is legal outside of the ring. From a closed fist to a chair shot, it's all legal as long as you're on the outside!
Max: Shut up, Daniel, Mina's talking.
Mina: Introducing first, the challenger... From Los Angeles, California... Weighing in at 280lbs... This is Titus!!!
Daniel: This match is billed as "Golden Opportunity" for the debuting Titus and that's exactly what is. If he can pick up a win here in his first WPW match, it won't soon be forgotten!
Mina: And his opponent... Los Angeles, California... 232 lbs.... He is the WPW Pure Champion, Justin Dreamer!!!
Danie: And remember that these Pure Rules are the brain child of this man, Justin Dreamer. These are his rules, so he has a distinct advantage here tonight. Add on the fact that this is Titus' first ever WPW match and Justin Dreamer is the clear favourite going in to this one.
The bell rings and our opening contest is underway as Dreamer and Titus lock up with a collar and elbow tie-up, but Titus quickly uses his height and weight advantage to overpower Dreamer and throw him to the mat. Dreamer gets to his feet and charges at Titus only to run right in to a surprising spinebuster from the debuting big man, who folows up by mounting Dreamer and throwing a series of right and left hands straight to the head. The ref is quick to remind Titus that normal rules still apply inside the ring and force him off of Dreamer. Titus wastes little time though and takes advantage of Dreamer's vulnerable state as he hits him with several high impact moves, finishing with a big 6ft 7 chokeslam before covering the champion for a pin attempt... One! ... Two! ..Kickout!
Daniel: Titus is being extremely impressive here, I don't think Dreamer was expecting this one bit.
Max: I know I certainly wasn't, I've got $50 riding on this one!
Daniel: Gamblings for fools, Max.
Max: But... That's the way I like it... Baby?
Daniel: Don't ever say that again.
Titus stalks the fallen Dreamer and calls for a big boot as the Hardcore icon gets to his feet. The Scientoligst brawler charges at Dreamer, looking for the boot, but is caught by surprise with a gut-crushing spear from Justin. Dreamer immediately rolls out of the ring and pulls Titus with him, looking to enter his own hardcore domain. Justin pulls a kendo stick out from under the ring and swings at Titus several times, whipping his body aggresively until it eventually breaks in two with all the strain. He rummages under the ring until he finds another Kendo stick and punishes Titus in the exact same way until the stick breaks again. Titus retreats to the side to recover from the beating but Dreamer soon charges at him and sends him flying over the crowd barrier and in to the fans with a clothesline.
Max: Welcome to WPW! My god, Titus made one little mistake and Dreamer has punished him for it ever since.
Daniel: Well, Dreamer's a veteran, he knows what he's doing out there. And don't forget that this is his match type too, which only makes it all the more dangerous for his challengers.
Dreamer waits for Titus to get a veritcal base and then hops on to the crowd barrier, steadies himself, then moonsaults off to crash in to the challenger and several nearby fans. Justin, not caring about either the fans or his opponent, quickly moves on and grabs a steel chair from the crowd to smash it straight across the head of Titus. He picks the challenger up and throws him over the barrier, soon following after but only to walk in to a fairly weak shot to the forehead with a half broken kendo stick. Dreamer shakes the shot off but Titus kicks him in the gut and then slams him head-first in to the steel steps with sickening force, seemingly rendering the champ unconscious. He scoops Dreamer off the steps and rolls him under the bottom rope before following in after him.
Max: Oh no, Dreamer looks to be out cold. This isn't good at all.
Titus wastes absolutely no time in heaving Dreamer's body up off the canvas and looking to end his debut match right here, right now. He puts Dreamer in a front face lock, lifts him high in the air with a vertical suplex, and then drives him head-first in to the canvas with his trademark Brainbuster DDT, Dianetics. He covers the lifeless Dreamer and hooks a leg, looking for a huge pinfall victory... One! ...Two! ...Three!!!!
Max: What!?
Daniel: Wow! How's that for an impactful debut? Titus has won the Pure title in his very first match here in WPW!
Max: What!?
Daniel: I wonder what Apocalypse will have to say about this!
Max: What!?
Mina Henderson: Ladies and Gentlemen... Here is your winner and the NEW WPW Pure Champion... Titus!!!
Max: I'm in total shock... Titus just beat Justin Dreamer for the Pure title in his debut? How is that even possible!?
Daniel: With a little dianetics, apparantly.
We cut backstage to Dan Murph who is standing alone in front of a camera.
No matter what's happened here in the last few months, no matter what I've said, what I've done, or who I've done it to. You and I always had an understanding, I respected you, I respected everything you stood for, everything you told me to be true. You were one of the guys that helped build me up, you helped push me to the very summit, and for that I never thought I could have anything other than good feelings towards you. But ya know what, recently you've caught my eye, you've been really odd with me, you've held back, like you were hiding something, and I couldn't quite put my finger on it...but after seeing your promo this week, now I know.
Now I know, Scorch. I now know what I should have known all along. I looked up to you, as a guy who worked hard for this business and for this company. You were a guy who helped push me past all the bad aspects of this company and to the very top. You helped me focus, but more than anything you helped me believe. You were not only a credit to this company, but I was honoured to call you friend. But now everything's changed. And it isn't because of me, it's not because of the Apocalypse, it's because of you. It's because of your jealousy and your greed, because you look at me at the very top, you see the guys who have been sent to take me down fall one after another, and instead of being a man, stepping in front of me, looking into my eyes and challenging me, like a real man would do, like any man really looking to get his Redemption would do. Instead of that you're showing your true colours, your cowardace. You're showing that you don't want to work for that main event that you claim to want so bad, no, you want to sneak in the back door. You want it handed to you on a silver platter, you want to try and steal it away from a man who has held this championship for almost half a year.
But I won't let that happen.
Scorch, it's time you manned up, and I have just the proposition for you to do it. If they even let this promo air, because I know what a bunch of pussies run this show right now. Scorch, next week, you and I, the TNT main event.
You cash in your Sell Your Soul contract.
I put the WPW World Heavyweight Championship AND Florida State Championship on the line.
You want this main event, you want your Redemption? Earn it, take me on next week with everything on the line.
That is, unless you're scared?
We then jump to the ring for more action.
Singles Match
The Enigma vs Jermaine Daniels
"Anarchy" by KMFDM hits the speakers as The Enigma appears on stage.
Mina: Introducing first, from parts unknown, weighing in at 225 lbs. The Enigma!
Enigma sprints to the ring as the crowd give him a mixed reaction.
Daniel: Not so sure how I feel about this guy, he’s been awful quiet for a month now.
Max: Too many late night costume parties?
Daniel: That or no fallback plan for not winning the brawl.
The crowd dies down until "B-Boy Document '99” hits and then the same amount of fans pop.
Mina: And his opponent, from the Bronx New York, weighing in at 235 lbs… Jermaine Daniels!
Jermaine Daniels emerges from behind the curtain, break dancing on the top of the ramp. Once he finishes his routine he struts down the ramp bobbing his head to the music. Jermaine high fives the fans standing next to the guardrail as he makes his way to ringside but very few fans are interested. He slides into the ring leaping on to the second rope raising his right hand in the air receiving a mixed reaction. J.D. then performs a backflip landing successfully on his feet, but seeing only a good thirty or forty people clapping his brow furrows down in anger.
Daniel: Jermaine looks pissed by his reaction here.
Max: You heard the man, he’s sick of these fans, look at all he did in his entrance and no one even gave a damn.
Daniel: They probably just don’t know who he is.
Max: Sounds like Enigma’s problem if you ask me.
The referee goes to both men to explain the rules but Jermaine Daniels doesn’t look content to wait. He throws a jab to Enigma catching him off guard and quickly pulls him into a northern lights suplex. Enigma kicks out after two as JD stays on top for the pin, but Daniels is quick to his feet and kicks Enigma directly in the masked face. JD picks The Enigma up and brings him to his feet, then tosses him over the top rope to the outside yelling, “See, I could’ve been in the brawl!” The fans all boo this as he follows Enigma out.
Daniel: Seems JD is bitter about not being invited to the Brawl Max.
Max: Well when the ring was full of chickens, jobbers, and even a Beno how can you blame him?
Daniel: I’m shocked we didn’t see Crazy Camel Toe.
Max: Face. Crazy Camel Face.
Daniel: Oh right.
JD sets his eyes on the Enigma and poises himself on the outside waiting for the masked man to stand. Once he finally does JD charges him and lifts him up into a running death valley driver sending Enigma crashing painfully to the floor outside in a vicious sounding thump that was a mix of floor, flesh, mask, and bones. Jermaine slides back under the bottom rope as the referee shakes his head and continues his count but Enigma looks out cold on to the outside.
Daniel: That was an ugly ugly move Max.
Max: Murder was the Case after all.
The referee continues to count until he gets to ten, then reluctantly asks for the referee to ring the bell.
Mina: The winner of this match as a result of a count out, Jermaine Daniels.
Daniel: So what was this, Jermaine proving he could toss someone over the top rope?
Jermaine Daniels doesn’t even celebrate in the ring instead electing to walk down the ramp and toward the back with a significant amount of boo’s, way more then he’d received earlier.
Max: I think he was trying to tell WPW not to ignore him, or he’s going to make an example, which he just did.
Commercial Break
Turmoil returns from commercial break to show The Judge walking backstage.
Daniel: We’re back ladies and gentlemen and word is the number one contender has been searching backstage for Sal Karver ever since that in ring promo aired.
Max: What does Judge think he can do? Sal seems like he’s completely lost his mind, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he already lost his job too. He should go look for him in Carlos’ office.
Daniel: Carlos left already following that stunt from Sal.
Max: Typical, make a mess, leave poor Mike Adams to clean it up. What did he do get himself airlifted out of here?
The Judge knocks on the door of Mike Adams office and continues knocking until Mike opens the door.
Mike: What could you possibly want?
Judge: I’m looking for Sal.
Mike: Does my door say Sal Karver on it?
Judge: No smart ass, does my forehead say idiot on it?
Mike: Why would Sal Karver be here?
Judge: You didn’t call him to your office after that promo?
Mike: No, I don’t know what the hell to say to him, and I don’t know where he is anyway.
Judge: Fuck’s sake, does anyone know what they’re doing around here?
The Judge storms away from Adams angrily leaving Adams shaking his head.
Mike: Just gonna be one of those nights.
The cameras return to ringside.
Daniel: I can hardly believe what’s going on tonight.
Max: I can hardly believe Carlos left, see what happens when a Mexican is put in charge of a company?
Daniel: Max… That’s so racist I don’t even want to touch it.
Max: Oh who cares, what are we gonna do, lose that one Mexican fan who comes to every show? There’s no Mexicans up here in Oregon anyway, and no Mexican wrestlers.
Daniel: You realize that guy is the janitor don’t you? And also I think technically El Pollo Negro is Mexican.
Max: Do you know what Mexicans do to chickens Daniel?
Daniel: Let me guess, slaughter them, boil them, and wrap them in tortillas? Like at El Pollo Loco?
Max: El Pollo Loco grills not boils, but since most Mexicans are probably too poor to afford grills then I can see why they’d probably end up boiling.
Daniel face palms himself.
Daniel: First off, you need a grill to boil water. Secondly, you’ve never been to Mexico, how on earth would you know if they own grills. Third, this is horribly racist STILL, and finally does any of this have to do with the show?
Max: Well… ah… No.
BFIA WPW Tag Team Champion Rematch
The Bennetts (Phill and Jason) (c) vs Chris Cage and Andrew Xavier
Daniel: Ladies and gentlemen, our next match is for the WPW Tag Team Championships. Andrew Xavier has exercised his right to a rematch against Jason and Phillip, the only thing that might hinder his chances....
Max: His partner...
Daniel: Chris Cage.
Max: And the Bennett’s are primed to retain, because everyone knows those two can’t get along!
Daniel: Well, we’ll see right now!
Mina grabs a mic and walks into the centre of the ring. She then makes the customary announcements.
Mina: Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, he is the challenger, ANDREW XAVIER!
‘No More Sorrow’ hits and Andrew Xavier emerges from behind the curtain. He walks to the centre of the stage; his head hung low, and his hair covering his face. He then quickly raises his head, flicking his wet hair up and over his shoulders. He then walks down the ramp and slides under the ring. He walks to the centre of the ring and raises his arms, posing for a second.
Mina: And his partner, CHRIS CAGE!
‘In The City’ hits and Chris Cage emerges from behind the curtain. He doesn’t seem to into the match, and simply walks down to the ring, ignoring the fans. He slides in under the ring and pops up to his feet. He walks over to Xavier and gets in his face. They both trash-talk each other as Mina announces their opponents, which cause them to stop and take notice.
Mina: And their opponents, from Canterbury, England, they are the WPW Tag Team Champions, Jason and Phillip, the BENNETT BROTHERS!
‘Getting Away With Murder’ hits and the Bennett’s emerge from behind the curtain to a chorus off boo’s and jeers from the crowd. Jason and Phill both hold their titles in their right hands, and Jason has the Million Pound Title around his waist. Both Bennett’s walk to the top of the ramp and stand next to each other. They simultaneous raise their right hands above their heads, thus raising the belts in the air. The crowd boo again, and the Bennett’s lower their arms and walk down the ramp, towards the ring. They slide into the ring at the same time and both pop up to their feet. The ref keeps The Bennett’s and Cage and Xavier separate as Mina exits the ring, and the ref then calls for the bell. The bell sounds and the Bennett’s shake hands before Phill exits the ring, but such cohesiveness doesn’t exist between Xavier and Cage, as they both argue about who should start the match.
Daniel: Looks like Cage and Xavier still can’t get along!
Max: Nope! And look at the Bennett’s. They are just watching them argue!
Daniel: Not for much longer!
Jason looks at Phill, who enters the ring. Both Bennett’s then rush Xavier and Cage. Jason leaps into the air and dropkicks Xavier into the turnbuckle and Phill dumps Cage over the top rope. Phill follows Cage out to the arena floor and stomps on Cage as he struggles to get to his feet. Meanwhile, Jason is in total control as he assaults Xavier in the corner. Xavier tries to cover up, but Jason kicks him in the gut, doubling him over. Xavier coughs, but manages to get his torso out of the ring, between the middle and top ropes. The ref notices, and gets between Jason and Xavier, forcing a break. The ref turns his back on Xavier and he restrains Jason, and on the outside, Phill takes the opportunity. He kicks Cage in the head and reaches upwards. He grabs Xavier’s head and slingshots him. Phill then dashes round to his corner as Xavier stumbles out of his corner.
Daniel: I hate to say it, but that’s an impressive display by the Bennett’s so far.
Max: Of course!
Jason smiles as Xavier desperately looks for someone to tag, but Cage isn’t there! Jason walks towards Xavier and Xavier shoves him away. Jason looks disgusted and steps back from Xavier before dashing forward and taking him down with a spear. Meanwhile, Cage has found his way back up onto the apron and is just about to enter the ring. Phill realises this and enters the ring as well. He charges towards Cage and delivers a running RKO! Phill uses his feet and pushes Cage’s body along the canvas and out of the ring. Cage lands with a thud and Phill turns around to face Jason and Xavier. Jason forces Xavier up to his feet and kicks him in the gut, following up with the FUBAR stunner! Jason covers Xavier and hooks the leg. The ref dives down to make the count.
1...
2...
3... YES! The ref calls for the bell. Mina’s voice is then heard.
Mina: Here are your winners, and still the WPW Tag Team Champions, The BENNETT BROTHERS!
‘Getting Away With Murder’ hits as the Jason gets to his feet. Both Jason and Phill stand over Xavier’s body and raise their arms as the ref hands them the WPW Tag Team Championship Belts. They both raise their titles into the air before simultaneously looking down at Xavier.
Daniel: Oh, this can’t be good!
Max: The Bennett’s retained! I knew they would, what’s not good about that?!
Daniel: Not that... Well, that... But I mean the look in their eyes right about now!
Max: Oh right... Yeah, not so good for Andrew Xavier.
Both Bennett’s toss their belts to the canvas and reach down towards Xavier. They both force him up to their feet. Phill takes a step back and Jason turns Xavier, who is still groggy, to face Phill. Phill then steps forward and delivers a huge superkick right to Xavier’s jaw. The force of the kick turns Xavier to face Jason, who quickly kicks him in the gut and follows up with a second FUBAR stunner! The crowd boo like crazy as Xavier is left lying and the Bennett’s pose with their belts once again.
Daniel: OH!
Max: DAMN! ... That was some beautiful teamwork though!
The Bennett’s pose with the titles before exiting the ring and heading up the ramp. As they exit through the curtain, the ref rolls Xavier out of the ring and helps him to the back, as Cage also gets to his feet. He stumbles up the ramp behind the ref and the three of them disappear behind the curtain.
Daniel: Well...
Max: The Bennett’s retained! In a beautiful match!
Daniel: Match? That was a beatdown!
Max: Nah, the beatdown took place after the match!
Daniel: Shaddup!
Scorch is seen sitting alone backstage as he tapes up his wrists getting ready for tonight’s main event when The Judge walks into the locker room. Scorch looks up to Judge and gives him a slight nod before Judge sits down looking frustrated.
Scorch: Didn’t find him?
Judge: No. I’m starting to think he left.
Scorch: Maybe he did. Though I do have to say, this is turning out far different then I expected it to be.
Judge: There’s still time, I can reach out to him if I can find him, I know I can.
Scorch: There’s something I want to tell you, something important.
Judge: What’s that?
Scorch takes a deep breath and then begins to speak.
Scorch: I-
Suddenly the feed cuts out and the screen goes dark. About five seconds pass by until the camera returns to ringside where during the segment it appears Mina Henderson was still shooting out t-shirts into the crowd. Max and Daniel this time don’t even notice the camera is back on them as they watch their monitors anxiously, and finally Daniel catches on.
Daniel: Are you serious?
Max: What happened?
Daniel: The feed died.
Max: …What?
Daniel: Can we please get a camera man back there? What’s going on?
Max: Wait a damn minute, what did Scorch tell Judge?
Daniel: I haven’t got any idea.
Max: He said it was important! C’mon, what the fuck? Can I just like, go home early if the show is going to be like this all night?
Daniel: I’m all for that, we could replace you with the popcorn monkey.
Max: The popcorn monkey died years ago Daniel.
Daniel: And yet still my instincts tell me it’d do a better job then you.
Max: Well... Our next match is the cage match!
Daniel: Between Gunnar Brian and Martin Cameron! This is gonna be good!
Steel Cage Match
Martin Cameron vs Gunnar Brian
Mina : The following contest is a one fall exibition inside a Steel Cage!
The cage begins to lower. And the fans begin to scream with excitement
Daniel: Well this match should be an interesting one, it might be the first match not hampered by the big bad Dan Murph group going after Gunner Brian.
Max: Very true Daniel, but it’s not like it’s a tea party inside of the ring, he still has to face off against Martin Cameron.
Daniel: Still one guys is what you are paid for, 4 isn’t.
Max: Unless you pay more.
Daniel: What?
Mina: Introducing first… Martin Cameron!
MK Ultra by Muse hit’s the loud speakers and Martin get’s a somewhat positive reception from the crowd. He walks around the cage and checks if it’s locked in correctly, he enters.
Daniel: Not quite the reaction the Cameron of old use to get, but a positive reception now the less.
Max: To be fair, he isn’t exactly the Cameron of old, he seems to be caught up in him mind lately.
Daniel: That’s actually a good point Max.
Max: Bananas.
Judas Priest - Devil’s Child hit’s the loud speaker and Gunnar get’s a far more mix reaction than usual. Still more boos than cheers, but quit a few cheers for the evil son of a bitch. He enters the cage door, and tells the ref to hurry up and close it.
Daniel: Gunnar Brian, what more can you say…
Max: He’s hitting Martin against the steel cage.
Gunnar is in fact hitting Martin Cameron against the steal cage, the bell finally rings and the match has officially started. Gunnar has already taken early control but delivers a few more shots to Martin. Gunnar then goes for one more throw into the cage, but Cameron stops it with his foot and delivers elbow to Gunnar’s stomach. This sends Gunnar back, and leads to Cameron throwing a punch of angry right hands right to the face if Gunnar. After the sixth one gunnar blocks it and delivers a right of his own. He then stops another shot, and knees Cameron in the groin, sending him down in pain. Brian grins, picks up Martin and rakes his head against the steel cage, back and forth he goes until Cameron is cut open.
Daniel: Gunnar is just vicious when he wants to be, and that happens quit a bit.
Max: I would count Cameron out just yet, the blood and make up is a good look.
Daniel: Well said Max.
Gunnar finally drops his hold on Cameron’s bloody head, and heads for the exit. Cameron slowly get’s up through, walks up from behind him, drops to his knees, and delivers a low blow of his own. The fan cheers this, and Gunnar falls down in his own testicular pain. Cameron get’s up, picks up Gunnar, and points to the opposite side of the cage. He then grabs gunner’s head and uses all of his might to throw Gunnar at the cage wall. Gunnar goes flying into the cage, and hits his head directly against the cage, he staggers back to Martin who does the same thing against the opposite side of the cage. This time Gunnar body falls into the opposite side of the ropes, where he is sandwich between the cage and ropes. Martin Cameron breathes for a moment, and tries to wipe some of the blood of his face. He then bounces off of the ropes and does running drop kick right to the head of Gunnar. Sending Gunnar down to the mat like a ton of brinks.
Daniel: Brian could be seriously hurt here, he was just recently let out of the hospital.
Max: Well it’s about to get even worse.
Cameron yells something at Gunnar, runs against the opposite ropes again, bounces off with power, and drop kicks Gunnar one more time. This time the force makes the cage unhinge.
HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT.
The camera does a close up on the now bloodied and bruised Gunnar, and he smiles. He then falls out of the ring, and clunks onto the floor.
Mina: The winner of this match, by escape Gunnar Brian.
Daniel: Did Cameron just accidentally kick Gunnar Brian to victory.
Max: That’s a first, and that grin told the whole story.
Daniel: Can tonight get any weirder?
Max: Well, we do get to see Sal Karver one more time, and who knows what he’s going to do.
We switch to backstage
Amy White: Scorch, earlier in the night Dan Murph called you out. He challenged you cash in your Sell Your Sell contract next week to face him for the WPW Championship. The world wants to know, what is your answer?
Scorch: Amy, I heard his little whining diatribe earlier. Just as I have heard them for years. For much as he has grown in that time, he still has so much to learn. You see last year when I stepped in that cage I did it for more than a future match. I earned the right to be in control. I say when I cash this contract in. I say when I put my soul on the line for a shot at the Championship, not some delusional glorified farm boy. Dan Murph you want me in the ring next week for your title? The answer is no. You do not deserve it.
Though, Dan, there is good news for you. You see I told everyone I would cash in at Redemption. And I am going to do just that. However you may not have to worry about seeing me. You see this contract states I can challenge for a world title match whenever I want it. It does not say which world title I have to challenge for.
Now I know they get WPW over in Europe. So I want somebody to listen closely. At Redemption I want to cash in this Sell Your Soul contract in a match against The One for the PCW Championship. So what do you say One, are you ready to cross back over the pond?
Daniel: Did we just hear what I think we heard?
Max: I believe we did.
Daniel: Scorch has challenged The One to return at Redemption and face him for the PCW Championship!
TNT shifts camera angle backstage to the Apocalpyse all in their locker room backstage.
Dan: See, I knew that little fucking weasel wouldn’t accept my challenge, so typical that instead of competing for the titles that actually matter here, he wants to go after one that’s long and dead.
Jason, Phill, and Justin all stand around Dan with their heads hung none really participating much in the conversation. Dan looks to each of them upset.
Dan: Hello? I feel like I’m talking to myself here.
Jason: Why do you care about Scorch man? If he already said what his plans are now, then you don’t have to worry about him.
Phill: Yeah dude, you still have two titles, I don’t know what else you could really want at this point.
Dan: What I want is respect!
Justin Dreamer suddenly steps forward and stands right before Dan looking up to him.
Justin: What about what we want man? Months ago we all joined because you promised us we’d be the most dominant group in the history of this place and that we’d kill WPW once and for all.
Dan: Well are we not? Have you been watching tonight? This is the worst fucking show I’ve ever seen.
Justin: Were you watching when that new blood stole my title too, or were you too busy shining up both of yours to notice?
Suddenly the door to the locker room bursts open and standing in the doorway is Sal Karver.
Dan: Well look who decided to show up. Gonna be my partner after all, decided you want to keep your job after all?
Sal shakes his head in disgust.
Sal: Yes, I’ve definitely come to do my job tonight. Hurry up and let’s go.
Daniel: Up next, our main event. Dan Murph and Sal Karver take on The Judge and Scorch.
Max: I can’t believe Sal’s still here! Is he going to help Murph after all? Did Carlos meet with him outside the arena?
Daniel: I have no idea, but this match is NEXT!
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Tag Team Main Event
Scorch & Judge vs Sal Karver and Dan Murph
Daniel: Um… tonight has been different to say the least, and hopefully we can get through this Main Event, without any more problems.
Max: Seriously we do apologize to all of our fans for tonight.
Daniel: Well, the Main event should be an epic contest between four of the biggest names in WPW. The big question though is can Sal Karver and Dan Murph co-exist. At Brawl for it All Sal Karver turned on all of his..
Max: Are we seriously going with this?
Silence.
Mina: The next match is the main event of the evening! Introducing first Scorch and the Number 1 Contender The Judge!
Cool Kids by Screaching Weasel hit’s the loud speakers, and Judge and Scorch make their ring to a rousing ovation. The fans cheer and clap as the enter the ring.
Max: Finally they are here, I was sick of getting car sick all week.
Daniel: You weren’t in the car.
Max: I’m always in the car.
Judge and Scorch talk in the ring until Sal Karvers music hits and all attention is placed on the entrance map. Run a check by A Broken silence plays, and nothing happens. The fans start too boo until Dan Murph walks out shrugging his shoulders. The fans then begin to cheer, because right behind him out come Sal Karver.
Mina: And their opponents, Sal Karver and WPW Champion Dan Murph!
Daniel: These two obvious have a strange relationship, don’t you think Max?
Max: I’m staying out of this one.
Both men enter the ring and the ref tells Dan Murph and Scorch to get to their respective corners. Judge and Sal Karver stand in the middle of the ring, and the referee whistles for the bell. Sal lays on the floor, Judge kicks him a few times, but he’s not selling it.
Daniel: Jesus Christ.
Judge tries to pick Sal up, but he is dead weight. Judge whispers something in his ear while punching him and then just simply goes for the pin.

Judge stands up and tell Scorch that they are going to leave, Dan has already left as soon as he saw Sal go to the floor. Sal then get’s up, as the crowd is silent and confused. He grabs the mic from Mina.
Sal: Well everyone, Carlos and the idiots back stage got what they wanted, use Sal Karver as a stepping stone to build up their golden boys. Hope you are all happy, because I’m not going to work as your little dog until I get my release, so until then, I’m going to make this piece of **** show even worse than it already is.
The crowd claps, after witnessing a very poor and late show.
He drops the mic, and heads backstage. The show ends in silence without even a thank you from Mina Henderson, as the fans begin to leave.
Eugene, Oregon
March 27th, 2010
Daniel: Welcome everyone to WPW Turmoil, I'm Daniel Justice and with me as always is Max Stockton, and as a treat to all of you our first match will be for the pure....
Carlos Gonzales Music hits and he walks down to the ring with a scattering of boos. He grabs a mic and begins to speak.
Carlos: You people have to understand... No, You need to know something. Long ago when I started WPW, I was a hero to all of you, to the wrestlers, to the fans, and to the wrestling public. People respected this product, and respected me. You people though, all of you... took Me, no.. this company for granted. Everyone started to criticize the product, no one gave me any respect for what I have built. You all forgot what this company stood for! So I have do what was necessary for you to remember what made me so special, so I brought in Mike Adams. Not to save it, but not to kill it. I gave the word Mike Adams to show how far along I was from him, how much better I was then him! But he didn't do as bad as I thought, so I had to make him look crooked, I had to make him look evil. All... All I wanted to do was comeback and show you who I am, and what I can....
Sal Karver's music hits and the crowd boos heavily. He walks towards Carlos in the ring and grabs his mic away. Carlos looks confused because he just interrupted his monologue.
Sal: You hear that? They hate me now, because I'm not one of your golden boys. I can't walk in you office and whisper sweet nothings into your ear like them can I Carlos? No, just like all the other young guys around here, I'm just your little puppet meant to play as fonder for your boring heel stable. I'm here to tell you now, it didn't work for Royalty and it isn't working now.
No instead of let you control my career, I'm going to change. I'm sick all of your stupid booking decisions, and all of you unnecessary turns. Look around, no one cares anymore! This show is nothing! For so long, I've been a defender of our product, I've turned down better contracts at better companies, and I've done it because I was drinking your cool aid. Not anymore, these fans deserve better, we all deserve better!
I want to be released from my contract right now.
Carlos looks around, but gives his answer.
Carlos: No. I'm not going to make out competitors bet....
Sal slaps him across the face, and then security rushes the stage and we cut directly to commercial.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Amy: Welcome back to WPW Turmoil, brought to you by Frank's Furniture, why go to IKEA when you can buy from the little guy and pay twice the price? We’re here backstage with Jermiah Daniels.
Jermaine: Jermaine… Jermaine Daniels.
Amy: Oh yes, sorry about that, Jermaine Daniels. Jermaine, can you tell us why you’ve decided to turn your back on the fans who were cheering you? Many people were very upset with your words this week.
Jermaine: Who cares if they were upset, I’m upset too Amy, but at the end of the day I still know your name.
Amy looks ashamed but continues.
Amy: So is it because they’re not paying enough attention? In Do you feel like no one knows who you are?
Jermaine: No one does know who I am, it’s a complete joke. I’m from the Bronx, I know what it’s like to be just another face in the crowd, but…. FUUUUCK!
Suddenly Jermaine Daniels pulls away from the microphone and clutches his forearm. Amy looks confused and looks around.
Amy: Um… Ah…
Jermaine: Fuck me, I got the worst cramp in my arm. Can we start this promo over?
Amy: Um…
Jermaine: C’mon, you can even get my name right this time.
Amy: Well, we’re kinda… live…
Jermaine: …We are?
Jermaine and Amy stand looking at one another for a long awkward moment before the segment just abruptly ends, and the camera is back on Daniel and Max at ringside, who clearly weren’t ready either as Daniel is still shuffling his notes and cue cards and Max is busy picking his nose. Daniel notices the shot is on them though and elbows Max in the side.
Daniel: Ahem, uh. We apologize for that ladies and gentlemen.
Max: What is that? Our new slogan?
Daniel: What?
Max: ‘We Apologize’ blah blah blah. Maybe we should just open Turmoil with that Timbaland song.
Daniel: You mean One Republic?
Max: No, I mean the better version by Timbaland that goes Ay ay ay in the chorus.
Daniel: Whatever Max, I’ve never seen a TNT start off so… What’s the word?
Max: Bad?
Daniel: Eh… Well… Yeah.
Golden Opportunity - Pure Title Match
Justin Dreamer(c) vs Titus
Mina Henderson: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following match will take place under 'Pure Rules' and it is for the WPW Pure Title!!!
Daniel: A quick reminder of the rules here, folks; It's a Pure title match so it's under "Pure Rules". Everything runs as normal inside the ring, but anything and everything goes outside of it! That means you can and will be disqualified if you break regular WPW rules while in the squared circle, but anything and everything is legal outside of the ring. From a closed fist to a chair shot, it's all legal as long as you're on the outside!
Max: Shut up, Daniel, Mina's talking.
Mina: Introducing first, the challenger... From Los Angeles, California... Weighing in at 280lbs... This is Titus!!!
Daniel: This match is billed as "Golden Opportunity" for the debuting Titus and that's exactly what is. If he can pick up a win here in his first WPW match, it won't soon be forgotten!
Mina: And his opponent... Los Angeles, California... 232 lbs.... He is the WPW Pure Champion, Justin Dreamer!!!
Danie: And remember that these Pure Rules are the brain child of this man, Justin Dreamer. These are his rules, so he has a distinct advantage here tonight. Add on the fact that this is Titus' first ever WPW match and Justin Dreamer is the clear favourite going in to this one.
The bell rings and our opening contest is underway as Dreamer and Titus lock up with a collar and elbow tie-up, but Titus quickly uses his height and weight advantage to overpower Dreamer and throw him to the mat. Dreamer gets to his feet and charges at Titus only to run right in to a surprising spinebuster from the debuting big man, who folows up by mounting Dreamer and throwing a series of right and left hands straight to the head. The ref is quick to remind Titus that normal rules still apply inside the ring and force him off of Dreamer. Titus wastes little time though and takes advantage of Dreamer's vulnerable state as he hits him with several high impact moves, finishing with a big 6ft 7 chokeslam before covering the champion for a pin attempt... One! ... Two! ..Kickout!
Daniel: Titus is being extremely impressive here, I don't think Dreamer was expecting this one bit.
Max: I know I certainly wasn't, I've got $50 riding on this one!
Daniel: Gamblings for fools, Max.
Max: But... That's the way I like it... Baby?
Daniel: Don't ever say that again.
Titus stalks the fallen Dreamer and calls for a big boot as the Hardcore icon gets to his feet. The Scientoligst brawler charges at Dreamer, looking for the boot, but is caught by surprise with a gut-crushing spear from Justin. Dreamer immediately rolls out of the ring and pulls Titus with him, looking to enter his own hardcore domain. Justin pulls a kendo stick out from under the ring and swings at Titus several times, whipping his body aggresively until it eventually breaks in two with all the strain. He rummages under the ring until he finds another Kendo stick and punishes Titus in the exact same way until the stick breaks again. Titus retreats to the side to recover from the beating but Dreamer soon charges at him and sends him flying over the crowd barrier and in to the fans with a clothesline.
Max: Welcome to WPW! My god, Titus made one little mistake and Dreamer has punished him for it ever since.
Daniel: Well, Dreamer's a veteran, he knows what he's doing out there. And don't forget that this is his match type too, which only makes it all the more dangerous for his challengers.
Dreamer waits for Titus to get a veritcal base and then hops on to the crowd barrier, steadies himself, then moonsaults off to crash in to the challenger and several nearby fans. Justin, not caring about either the fans or his opponent, quickly moves on and grabs a steel chair from the crowd to smash it straight across the head of Titus. He picks the challenger up and throws him over the barrier, soon following after but only to walk in to a fairly weak shot to the forehead with a half broken kendo stick. Dreamer shakes the shot off but Titus kicks him in the gut and then slams him head-first in to the steel steps with sickening force, seemingly rendering the champ unconscious. He scoops Dreamer off the steps and rolls him under the bottom rope before following in after him.
Max: Oh no, Dreamer looks to be out cold. This isn't good at all.
Titus wastes absolutely no time in heaving Dreamer's body up off the canvas and looking to end his debut match right here, right now. He puts Dreamer in a front face lock, lifts him high in the air with a vertical suplex, and then drives him head-first in to the canvas with his trademark Brainbuster DDT, Dianetics. He covers the lifeless Dreamer and hooks a leg, looking for a huge pinfall victory... One! ...Two! ...Three!!!!
Max: What!?
Daniel: Wow! How's that for an impactful debut? Titus has won the Pure title in his very first match here in WPW!
Max: What!?
Daniel: I wonder what Apocalypse will have to say about this!
Max: What!?
Mina Henderson: Ladies and Gentlemen... Here is your winner and the NEW WPW Pure Champion... Titus!!!
Max: I'm in total shock... Titus just beat Justin Dreamer for the Pure title in his debut? How is that even possible!?
Daniel: With a little dianetics, apparantly.
We cut backstage to Dan Murph who is standing alone in front of a camera.
No matter what's happened here in the last few months, no matter what I've said, what I've done, or who I've done it to. You and I always had an understanding, I respected you, I respected everything you stood for, everything you told me to be true. You were one of the guys that helped build me up, you helped push me to the very summit, and for that I never thought I could have anything other than good feelings towards you. But ya know what, recently you've caught my eye, you've been really odd with me, you've held back, like you were hiding something, and I couldn't quite put my finger on it...but after seeing your promo this week, now I know.
Now I know, Scorch. I now know what I should have known all along. I looked up to you, as a guy who worked hard for this business and for this company. You were a guy who helped push me past all the bad aspects of this company and to the very top. You helped me focus, but more than anything you helped me believe. You were not only a credit to this company, but I was honoured to call you friend. But now everything's changed. And it isn't because of me, it's not because of the Apocalypse, it's because of you. It's because of your jealousy and your greed, because you look at me at the very top, you see the guys who have been sent to take me down fall one after another, and instead of being a man, stepping in front of me, looking into my eyes and challenging me, like a real man would do, like any man really looking to get his Redemption would do. Instead of that you're showing your true colours, your cowardace. You're showing that you don't want to work for that main event that you claim to want so bad, no, you want to sneak in the back door. You want it handed to you on a silver platter, you want to try and steal it away from a man who has held this championship for almost half a year.
But I won't let that happen.
Scorch, it's time you manned up, and I have just the proposition for you to do it. If they even let this promo air, because I know what a bunch of pussies run this show right now. Scorch, next week, you and I, the TNT main event.
You cash in your Sell Your Soul contract.
I put the WPW World Heavyweight Championship AND Florida State Championship on the line.
You want this main event, you want your Redemption? Earn it, take me on next week with everything on the line.
That is, unless you're scared?
We then jump to the ring for more action.
Singles Match
The Enigma vs Jermaine Daniels
"Anarchy" by KMFDM hits the speakers as The Enigma appears on stage.
Mina: Introducing first, from parts unknown, weighing in at 225 lbs. The Enigma!
Enigma sprints to the ring as the crowd give him a mixed reaction.
Daniel: Not so sure how I feel about this guy, he’s been awful quiet for a month now.
Max: Too many late night costume parties?
Daniel: That or no fallback plan for not winning the brawl.
The crowd dies down until "B-Boy Document '99” hits and then the same amount of fans pop.
Mina: And his opponent, from the Bronx New York, weighing in at 235 lbs… Jermaine Daniels!
Jermaine Daniels emerges from behind the curtain, break dancing on the top of the ramp. Once he finishes his routine he struts down the ramp bobbing his head to the music. Jermaine high fives the fans standing next to the guardrail as he makes his way to ringside but very few fans are interested. He slides into the ring leaping on to the second rope raising his right hand in the air receiving a mixed reaction. J.D. then performs a backflip landing successfully on his feet, but seeing only a good thirty or forty people clapping his brow furrows down in anger.
Daniel: Jermaine looks pissed by his reaction here.
Max: You heard the man, he’s sick of these fans, look at all he did in his entrance and no one even gave a damn.
Daniel: They probably just don’t know who he is.
Max: Sounds like Enigma’s problem if you ask me.
The referee goes to both men to explain the rules but Jermaine Daniels doesn’t look content to wait. He throws a jab to Enigma catching him off guard and quickly pulls him into a northern lights suplex. Enigma kicks out after two as JD stays on top for the pin, but Daniels is quick to his feet and kicks Enigma directly in the masked face. JD picks The Enigma up and brings him to his feet, then tosses him over the top rope to the outside yelling, “See, I could’ve been in the brawl!” The fans all boo this as he follows Enigma out.
Daniel: Seems JD is bitter about not being invited to the Brawl Max.
Max: Well when the ring was full of chickens, jobbers, and even a Beno how can you blame him?
Daniel: I’m shocked we didn’t see Crazy Camel Toe.
Max: Face. Crazy Camel Face.
Daniel: Oh right.
JD sets his eyes on the Enigma and poises himself on the outside waiting for the masked man to stand. Once he finally does JD charges him and lifts him up into a running death valley driver sending Enigma crashing painfully to the floor outside in a vicious sounding thump that was a mix of floor, flesh, mask, and bones. Jermaine slides back under the bottom rope as the referee shakes his head and continues his count but Enigma looks out cold on to the outside.
Daniel: That was an ugly ugly move Max.
Max: Murder was the Case after all.
The referee continues to count until he gets to ten, then reluctantly asks for the referee to ring the bell.
Mina: The winner of this match as a result of a count out, Jermaine Daniels.
Daniel: So what was this, Jermaine proving he could toss someone over the top rope?
Jermaine Daniels doesn’t even celebrate in the ring instead electing to walk down the ramp and toward the back with a significant amount of boo’s, way more then he’d received earlier.
Max: I think he was trying to tell WPW not to ignore him, or he’s going to make an example, which he just did.
Commercial Break
Turmoil returns from commercial break to show The Judge walking backstage.
Daniel: We’re back ladies and gentlemen and word is the number one contender has been searching backstage for Sal Karver ever since that in ring promo aired.
Max: What does Judge think he can do? Sal seems like he’s completely lost his mind, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he already lost his job too. He should go look for him in Carlos’ office.
Daniel: Carlos left already following that stunt from Sal.
Max: Typical, make a mess, leave poor Mike Adams to clean it up. What did he do get himself airlifted out of here?
The Judge knocks on the door of Mike Adams office and continues knocking until Mike opens the door.
Mike: What could you possibly want?
Judge: I’m looking for Sal.
Mike: Does my door say Sal Karver on it?
Judge: No smart ass, does my forehead say idiot on it?
Mike: Why would Sal Karver be here?
Judge: You didn’t call him to your office after that promo?
Mike: No, I don’t know what the hell to say to him, and I don’t know where he is anyway.
Judge: Fuck’s sake, does anyone know what they’re doing around here?
The Judge storms away from Adams angrily leaving Adams shaking his head.
Mike: Just gonna be one of those nights.
The cameras return to ringside.
Daniel: I can hardly believe what’s going on tonight.
Max: I can hardly believe Carlos left, see what happens when a Mexican is put in charge of a company?
Daniel: Max… That’s so racist I don’t even want to touch it.
Max: Oh who cares, what are we gonna do, lose that one Mexican fan who comes to every show? There’s no Mexicans up here in Oregon anyway, and no Mexican wrestlers.
Daniel: You realize that guy is the janitor don’t you? And also I think technically El Pollo Negro is Mexican.
Max: Do you know what Mexicans do to chickens Daniel?
Daniel: Let me guess, slaughter them, boil them, and wrap them in tortillas? Like at El Pollo Loco?
Max: El Pollo Loco grills not boils, but since most Mexicans are probably too poor to afford grills then I can see why they’d probably end up boiling.
Daniel face palms himself.
Daniel: First off, you need a grill to boil water. Secondly, you’ve never been to Mexico, how on earth would you know if they own grills. Third, this is horribly racist STILL, and finally does any of this have to do with the show?
Max: Well… ah… No.
BFIA WPW Tag Team Champion Rematch
The Bennetts (Phill and Jason) (c) vs Chris Cage and Andrew Xavier
Daniel: Ladies and gentlemen, our next match is for the WPW Tag Team Championships. Andrew Xavier has exercised his right to a rematch against Jason and Phillip, the only thing that might hinder his chances....
Max: His partner...
Daniel: Chris Cage.
Max: And the Bennett’s are primed to retain, because everyone knows those two can’t get along!
Daniel: Well, we’ll see right now!
Mina grabs a mic and walks into the centre of the ring. She then makes the customary announcements.
Mina: Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, he is the challenger, ANDREW XAVIER!
‘No More Sorrow’ hits and Andrew Xavier emerges from behind the curtain. He walks to the centre of the stage; his head hung low, and his hair covering his face. He then quickly raises his head, flicking his wet hair up and over his shoulders. He then walks down the ramp and slides under the ring. He walks to the centre of the ring and raises his arms, posing for a second.
Mina: And his partner, CHRIS CAGE!
‘In The City’ hits and Chris Cage emerges from behind the curtain. He doesn’t seem to into the match, and simply walks down to the ring, ignoring the fans. He slides in under the ring and pops up to his feet. He walks over to Xavier and gets in his face. They both trash-talk each other as Mina announces their opponents, which cause them to stop and take notice.
Mina: And their opponents, from Canterbury, England, they are the WPW Tag Team Champions, Jason and Phillip, the BENNETT BROTHERS!
‘Getting Away With Murder’ hits and the Bennett’s emerge from behind the curtain to a chorus off boo’s and jeers from the crowd. Jason and Phill both hold their titles in their right hands, and Jason has the Million Pound Title around his waist. Both Bennett’s walk to the top of the ramp and stand next to each other. They simultaneous raise their right hands above their heads, thus raising the belts in the air. The crowd boo again, and the Bennett’s lower their arms and walk down the ramp, towards the ring. They slide into the ring at the same time and both pop up to their feet. The ref keeps The Bennett’s and Cage and Xavier separate as Mina exits the ring, and the ref then calls for the bell. The bell sounds and the Bennett’s shake hands before Phill exits the ring, but such cohesiveness doesn’t exist between Xavier and Cage, as they both argue about who should start the match.
Daniel: Looks like Cage and Xavier still can’t get along!
Max: Nope! And look at the Bennett’s. They are just watching them argue!
Daniel: Not for much longer!
Jason looks at Phill, who enters the ring. Both Bennett’s then rush Xavier and Cage. Jason leaps into the air and dropkicks Xavier into the turnbuckle and Phill dumps Cage over the top rope. Phill follows Cage out to the arena floor and stomps on Cage as he struggles to get to his feet. Meanwhile, Jason is in total control as he assaults Xavier in the corner. Xavier tries to cover up, but Jason kicks him in the gut, doubling him over. Xavier coughs, but manages to get his torso out of the ring, between the middle and top ropes. The ref notices, and gets between Jason and Xavier, forcing a break. The ref turns his back on Xavier and he restrains Jason, and on the outside, Phill takes the opportunity. He kicks Cage in the head and reaches upwards. He grabs Xavier’s head and slingshots him. Phill then dashes round to his corner as Xavier stumbles out of his corner.
Daniel: I hate to say it, but that’s an impressive display by the Bennett’s so far.
Max: Of course!
Jason smiles as Xavier desperately looks for someone to tag, but Cage isn’t there! Jason walks towards Xavier and Xavier shoves him away. Jason looks disgusted and steps back from Xavier before dashing forward and taking him down with a spear. Meanwhile, Cage has found his way back up onto the apron and is just about to enter the ring. Phill realises this and enters the ring as well. He charges towards Cage and delivers a running RKO! Phill uses his feet and pushes Cage’s body along the canvas and out of the ring. Cage lands with a thud and Phill turns around to face Jason and Xavier. Jason forces Xavier up to his feet and kicks him in the gut, following up with the FUBAR stunner! Jason covers Xavier and hooks the leg. The ref dives down to make the count.
1...
2...
3... YES! The ref calls for the bell. Mina’s voice is then heard.
Mina: Here are your winners, and still the WPW Tag Team Champions, The BENNETT BROTHERS!
‘Getting Away With Murder’ hits as the Jason gets to his feet. Both Jason and Phill stand over Xavier’s body and raise their arms as the ref hands them the WPW Tag Team Championship Belts. They both raise their titles into the air before simultaneously looking down at Xavier.
Daniel: Oh, this can’t be good!
Max: The Bennett’s retained! I knew they would, what’s not good about that?!
Daniel: Not that... Well, that... But I mean the look in their eyes right about now!
Max: Oh right... Yeah, not so good for Andrew Xavier.
Both Bennett’s toss their belts to the canvas and reach down towards Xavier. They both force him up to their feet. Phill takes a step back and Jason turns Xavier, who is still groggy, to face Phill. Phill then steps forward and delivers a huge superkick right to Xavier’s jaw. The force of the kick turns Xavier to face Jason, who quickly kicks him in the gut and follows up with a second FUBAR stunner! The crowd boo like crazy as Xavier is left lying and the Bennett’s pose with their belts once again.
Daniel: OH!
Max: DAMN! ... That was some beautiful teamwork though!
The Bennett’s pose with the titles before exiting the ring and heading up the ramp. As they exit through the curtain, the ref rolls Xavier out of the ring and helps him to the back, as Cage also gets to his feet. He stumbles up the ramp behind the ref and the three of them disappear behind the curtain.
Daniel: Well...
Max: The Bennett’s retained! In a beautiful match!
Daniel: Match? That was a beatdown!
Max: Nah, the beatdown took place after the match!
Daniel: Shaddup!
Scorch is seen sitting alone backstage as he tapes up his wrists getting ready for tonight’s main event when The Judge walks into the locker room. Scorch looks up to Judge and gives him a slight nod before Judge sits down looking frustrated.
Scorch: Didn’t find him?
Judge: No. I’m starting to think he left.
Scorch: Maybe he did. Though I do have to say, this is turning out far different then I expected it to be.
Judge: There’s still time, I can reach out to him if I can find him, I know I can.
Scorch: There’s something I want to tell you, something important.
Judge: What’s that?
Scorch takes a deep breath and then begins to speak.
Scorch: I-
Suddenly the feed cuts out and the screen goes dark. About five seconds pass by until the camera returns to ringside where during the segment it appears Mina Henderson was still shooting out t-shirts into the crowd. Max and Daniel this time don’t even notice the camera is back on them as they watch their monitors anxiously, and finally Daniel catches on.
Daniel: Are you serious?
Max: What happened?
Daniel: The feed died.
Max: …What?
Daniel: Can we please get a camera man back there? What’s going on?
Max: Wait a damn minute, what did Scorch tell Judge?
Daniel: I haven’t got any idea.
Max: He said it was important! C’mon, what the fuck? Can I just like, go home early if the show is going to be like this all night?
Daniel: I’m all for that, we could replace you with the popcorn monkey.
Max: The popcorn monkey died years ago Daniel.
Daniel: And yet still my instincts tell me it’d do a better job then you.
Max: Well... Our next match is the cage match!
Daniel: Between Gunnar Brian and Martin Cameron! This is gonna be good!
Steel Cage Match
Martin Cameron vs Gunnar Brian
Mina : The following contest is a one fall exibition inside a Steel Cage!
The cage begins to lower. And the fans begin to scream with excitement
Daniel: Well this match should be an interesting one, it might be the first match not hampered by the big bad Dan Murph group going after Gunner Brian.
Max: Very true Daniel, but it’s not like it’s a tea party inside of the ring, he still has to face off against Martin Cameron.
Daniel: Still one guys is what you are paid for, 4 isn’t.
Max: Unless you pay more.
Daniel: What?
Mina: Introducing first… Martin Cameron!
MK Ultra by Muse hit’s the loud speakers and Martin get’s a somewhat positive reception from the crowd. He walks around the cage and checks if it’s locked in correctly, he enters.
Daniel: Not quite the reaction the Cameron of old use to get, but a positive reception now the less.
Max: To be fair, he isn’t exactly the Cameron of old, he seems to be caught up in him mind lately.
Daniel: That’s actually a good point Max.
Max: Bananas.
Judas Priest - Devil’s Child hit’s the loud speaker and Gunnar get’s a far more mix reaction than usual. Still more boos than cheers, but quit a few cheers for the evil son of a bitch. He enters the cage door, and tells the ref to hurry up and close it.
Daniel: Gunnar Brian, what more can you say…
Max: He’s hitting Martin against the steel cage.
Gunnar is in fact hitting Martin Cameron against the steal cage, the bell finally rings and the match has officially started. Gunnar has already taken early control but delivers a few more shots to Martin. Gunnar then goes for one more throw into the cage, but Cameron stops it with his foot and delivers elbow to Gunnar’s stomach. This sends Gunnar back, and leads to Cameron throwing a punch of angry right hands right to the face if Gunnar. After the sixth one gunnar blocks it and delivers a right of his own. He then stops another shot, and knees Cameron in the groin, sending him down in pain. Brian grins, picks up Martin and rakes his head against the steel cage, back and forth he goes until Cameron is cut open.
Daniel: Gunnar is just vicious when he wants to be, and that happens quit a bit.
Max: I would count Cameron out just yet, the blood and make up is a good look.
Daniel: Well said Max.
Gunnar finally drops his hold on Cameron’s bloody head, and heads for the exit. Cameron slowly get’s up through, walks up from behind him, drops to his knees, and delivers a low blow of his own. The fan cheers this, and Gunnar falls down in his own testicular pain. Cameron get’s up, picks up Gunnar, and points to the opposite side of the cage. He then grabs gunner’s head and uses all of his might to throw Gunnar at the cage wall. Gunnar goes flying into the cage, and hits his head directly against the cage, he staggers back to Martin who does the same thing against the opposite side of the cage. This time Gunnar body falls into the opposite side of the ropes, where he is sandwich between the cage and ropes. Martin Cameron breathes for a moment, and tries to wipe some of the blood of his face. He then bounces off of the ropes and does running drop kick right to the head of Gunnar. Sending Gunnar down to the mat like a ton of brinks.
Daniel: Brian could be seriously hurt here, he was just recently let out of the hospital.
Max: Well it’s about to get even worse.
Cameron yells something at Gunnar, runs against the opposite ropes again, bounces off with power, and drop kicks Gunnar one more time. This time the force makes the cage unhinge.
HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT.
The camera does a close up on the now bloodied and bruised Gunnar, and he smiles. He then falls out of the ring, and clunks onto the floor.
Mina: The winner of this match, by escape Gunnar Brian.
Daniel: Did Cameron just accidentally kick Gunnar Brian to victory.
Max: That’s a first, and that grin told the whole story.
Daniel: Can tonight get any weirder?
Max: Well, we do get to see Sal Karver one more time, and who knows what he’s going to do.
We switch to backstage
Amy White: Scorch, earlier in the night Dan Murph called you out. He challenged you cash in your Sell Your Sell contract next week to face him for the WPW Championship. The world wants to know, what is your answer?
Scorch: Amy, I heard his little whining diatribe earlier. Just as I have heard them for years. For much as he has grown in that time, he still has so much to learn. You see last year when I stepped in that cage I did it for more than a future match. I earned the right to be in control. I say when I cash this contract in. I say when I put my soul on the line for a shot at the Championship, not some delusional glorified farm boy. Dan Murph you want me in the ring next week for your title? The answer is no. You do not deserve it.
Though, Dan, there is good news for you. You see I told everyone I would cash in at Redemption. And I am going to do just that. However you may not have to worry about seeing me. You see this contract states I can challenge for a world title match whenever I want it. It does not say which world title I have to challenge for.
Now I know they get WPW over in Europe. So I want somebody to listen closely. At Redemption I want to cash in this Sell Your Soul contract in a match against The One for the PCW Championship. So what do you say One, are you ready to cross back over the pond?
Daniel: Did we just hear what I think we heard?
Max: I believe we did.
Daniel: Scorch has challenged The One to return at Redemption and face him for the PCW Championship!
TNT shifts camera angle backstage to the Apocalpyse all in their locker room backstage.
Dan: See, I knew that little fucking weasel wouldn’t accept my challenge, so typical that instead of competing for the titles that actually matter here, he wants to go after one that’s long and dead.
Jason, Phill, and Justin all stand around Dan with their heads hung none really participating much in the conversation. Dan looks to each of them upset.
Dan: Hello? I feel like I’m talking to myself here.
Jason: Why do you care about Scorch man? If he already said what his plans are now, then you don’t have to worry about him.
Phill: Yeah dude, you still have two titles, I don’t know what else you could really want at this point.
Dan: What I want is respect!
Justin Dreamer suddenly steps forward and stands right before Dan looking up to him.
Justin: What about what we want man? Months ago we all joined because you promised us we’d be the most dominant group in the history of this place and that we’d kill WPW once and for all.
Dan: Well are we not? Have you been watching tonight? This is the worst fucking show I’ve ever seen.
Justin: Were you watching when that new blood stole my title too, or were you too busy shining up both of yours to notice?
Suddenly the door to the locker room bursts open and standing in the doorway is Sal Karver.
Dan: Well look who decided to show up. Gonna be my partner after all, decided you want to keep your job after all?
Sal shakes his head in disgust.
Sal: Yes, I’ve definitely come to do my job tonight. Hurry up and let’s go.
Daniel: Up next, our main event. Dan Murph and Sal Karver take on The Judge and Scorch.
Max: I can’t believe Sal’s still here! Is he going to help Murph after all? Did Carlos meet with him outside the arena?
Daniel: I have no idea, but this match is NEXT!
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Tag Team Main Event
Scorch & Judge vs Sal Karver and Dan Murph
Daniel: Um… tonight has been different to say the least, and hopefully we can get through this Main Event, without any more problems.
Max: Seriously we do apologize to all of our fans for tonight.
Daniel: Well, the Main event should be an epic contest between four of the biggest names in WPW. The big question though is can Sal Karver and Dan Murph co-exist. At Brawl for it All Sal Karver turned on all of his..
Max: Are we seriously going with this?
Silence.
Mina: The next match is the main event of the evening! Introducing first Scorch and the Number 1 Contender The Judge!
Cool Kids by Screaching Weasel hit’s the loud speakers, and Judge and Scorch make their ring to a rousing ovation. The fans cheer and clap as the enter the ring.
Max: Finally they are here, I was sick of getting car sick all week.
Daniel: You weren’t in the car.
Max: I’m always in the car.
Judge and Scorch talk in the ring until Sal Karvers music hits and all attention is placed on the entrance map. Run a check by A Broken silence plays, and nothing happens. The fans start too boo until Dan Murph walks out shrugging his shoulders. The fans then begin to cheer, because right behind him out come Sal Karver.
Mina: And their opponents, Sal Karver and WPW Champion Dan Murph!
Daniel: These two obvious have a strange relationship, don’t you think Max?
Max: I’m staying out of this one.
Both men enter the ring and the ref tells Dan Murph and Scorch to get to their respective corners. Judge and Sal Karver stand in the middle of the ring, and the referee whistles for the bell. Sal lays on the floor, Judge kicks him a few times, but he’s not selling it.
Daniel: Jesus Christ.
Judge tries to pick Sal up, but he is dead weight. Judge whispers something in his ear while punching him and then just simply goes for the pin.

Judge stands up and tell Scorch that they are going to leave, Dan has already left as soon as he saw Sal go to the floor. Sal then get’s up, as the crowd is silent and confused. He grabs the mic from Mina.
Sal: Well everyone, Carlos and the idiots back stage got what they wanted, use Sal Karver as a stepping stone to build up their golden boys. Hope you are all happy, because I’m not going to work as your little dog until I get my release, so until then, I’m going to make this piece of **** show even worse than it already is.
The crowd claps, after witnessing a very poor and late show.
He drops the mic, and heads backstage. The show ends in silence without even a thank you from Mina Henderson, as the fans begin to leave.
