Thomas Simon: Welcome to MPW's TNT!

Bob Herman: Which is now MPW's flag ship show and boy do we have a huge card for you tonight!

[[One Step Closer by Linkin Park hits and out on the stage walks Madd Katt in a blue suit. The fans cheer as he adjusts his tie and smiles. He walks down the ramp towards the ring]]

Honey Winters: Please welcome your TNT General Manager, Madd Katt!

[[The fans cheer and Madd Katt climbs in the ring. Honey passes him the microphone as she exits and Madd Katt stands in the middle of the ring still smiling]]

Madd Katt: Would you look at that, you guys came back!

[[The fans cheer as Madd Katt nods]]

Madd Katt: First and foremost welcome to TNT! Tonight's show we will find out the last two X-Core Championship qualifiers as well as feature the best wrestlers in the world. Now, before we get started I know there is internet buzz and all the dirt sheets are just roaring. So let me set the record straight....

[[The fans quiet down as Madd Katt clears his throat]]

Madd Katt: No, MPW is not closing and No will I be out of a job. You see Monday Night Main Event has been MPW's top show since the dawn of it's existence. Than TNT came around and we had two separate shows and two separate rosters. It was fantastic, our own titles, our own roster and we had one hell of a rating last week even though it was ruined by Johnny Clash.

[[The fans boo]]

Madd Katt: So there have been many and I mean MANY meetings and sleepless nights discussing the state of the company with the board of directors. At no point was closing our doors discussed but it was evident that a roster split and a second show was NOT the best route to take at this moment in time. The decision was made and as of now, TNT will be MPW's only show.

[[The crowd buzzes and Madd Katt puts his hands up]]

Madd Katt: Please please.. We are not saying Monday Night Main Event will not return in the future but as for now the roster should remain one. With that we must also adjust the Championships a tad bit. Everything will remain the same except the Sin City Championship and the North American Championship will merge in to one, keeping the Sin City name. Now can I please have Bliss and Christian Carter come out..........

[[Madd Katt is cut off as 23 Days by Framing Hanley hits and Miss Biguns walks on to the stage in business attire. She is trailed by Johnny Clash also in a suit and sunglasses. They walk down to the ring and Clash hops on to the apron and holds the ropes open for Biguns. She leans through and Clash smirks and nods as she bends in front of him. He climbs in after her and stands next to her face to face with Madd Katt. Biguns calls for a microphone and the music stops]]

Ms. Biguns: So here he is, the Legendary Madd Katt. The man who in theory took my job. I was just named the General Manager of Monday Night's and you had to go out and get the show canceled so you can have full reign huh?

[[The fans boo Biguns accusations]]

Ms. Biguns: Not only that, but than you decide to make changes to an already perfect main event where my client Johnny Clash was set to take on Trey Baxter one on one for the World Championship. Blaze and Kried have NO business in that match up and you know it! DO THE RIGHT THING AND CHANGE IT BACK!

[[The fans boo some more]]

Madd Katt: You see Biguns, I would... But I can name a hand full of people who are more deserving than your “client.” So the only change I would make to that match is taking Clash out!

[[The fans cheer as Clash goes crazy in the ring and takes off his suit jacket and throws it in the ring]]

Madd Katt: Woe woe woe, easy don't get all heated there Johnny. I'm not making changes to the match because it's already set in stone! And no Biguns I didn't take your job, you never even got a chance to do your job and the board of directors already know that I am damn good at it!

Ms. Biguns: I don't believe a damn word you say. You are just like the rest of these corporate squares. How about we compete for it.

Madd Katt: Me and you compete for it? What do you want, a pie eating contest? Because listen im a married man! I can't..

Ms. Biguns: No you moron. How about you pick someone on your roster and ill pick someone on mine. We put them in the ring at After Shock and the winner will have full reign of the show, no ands... Ifs...

[[Biguns moves closer to Madd Katt's face]]

Ms. Biguns: Or buts. What do you say Madd Katt.

[[Madd Katt puts his hand to his chin and thinks for a second]]

Ms. Biguns: You know what.. YOU'RE ON! And I think I have someone in mind.

[[The fans cheer as Biguns smirks to the side]]

Ms. Biguns: I knew you would agree. You just made a very poor decision Mr. Katt

[[Biguns drops the microphone as 23 Days hits again and Johnny holds the ropes open for her again. They walk up the ramp as the scene cuts to commercial]]

Singles Match

[[The Intro of Eye Of The Tiger Hits as the lights go out. As Fans cheer as a spot light appears on the Entrance Ramp, Lighting up Michael Marino in a Maroon and Gray Warm up Jacket With The Hood Up. As he make his way down to the Ring, he gives the Fans in the crowd High Fives. He makes his way up the Steps and gets into the ring under the top rope. He grabs a hold of it, shaking it back and forth as Sofia pulls down his hood to reveal his face.]]

Honey winters: Introducing First, from South Philadelphia ... Michael Marino

[[Disturbed's "Stricken" plays from the speakers, the MPW Nation begins boos viciously at the arrival of The Hardcore Icon, Brandon Nytrus. He and his girlfriend, Nikki, make their way on stage to an array of hisses and boos. Brandon twirls Nikki around and dips her. He looks up and smiles at the crowd.]]

Honey Winters: And his challenger, making his way to the ring accompanied by Nikki Schott, from South Boston, Massachusetts, weighing in at 272 pounds, he is The Hardcore Icon... Brandon ... Nytrus!

[[The two make their way down the ramp, Nikki following behind Brandon as he begins to yell things to the crowd. He climbs the steps and allows his girlfriend in before he slithers through the second rope and into the ring himself. He climbs the nearest turnbuckle and looks out to the crowd and lets out a cocky smile. He hops down and looks out at the crowd who is still booing him viciously. Then awaits the match to start.]]

Thomas Simon: Nytrus already qualified for the X-Core Championship match and now has a shot at the new guy, the All American Michael Marino

Bob Herman: We saw Marino lose his cool last week and take out Jeff Jackson, let's see what he does against Nytrus this week.

[[Nytrus barely waits for the bell to ring before charging into Marino, who was not prepared for the onslaught. Nytrus gores him viscously into the mat. he follows that up with several well aimed punches to Marino's head. the Ref pulls Nytrus at the shoulder. he brushes him off but still climbs off the smaller man. he dances from each foot waiting for Marino to actually get up. The ref starts to count. Meanwhile Sofia has gotten up on the apron and is yelling at him to wake up. Nikki grabs her by the legs and knocks her to the mats below the ring. She then starts kicking her while she's down. Nytrus smiles, just as Marino pulls himself up to a sitting position. Nytrus rushes him and picks him up over his shoulder. Marino starts to Kick and punch him. At first Nytrus is oblivious to his desperate attempts to free himself but Marino gets a good solid kick to Nytrus's knee, weakening him enough to drop the man to the mat. Marino moves to get up on the top rope to try and deliver a high-flying move but before he can even start climbing, Nytrus grabs him from behind and crushes him in a bear hug, ultimately cutting off Marino's ability to breath normally. Marino flails his arms, almost getting close enough to grab the ropes when Nytrus pulls him back with a grunt and a laugh. The ref moves in to ask Marino if he give up. Marino shakes his head, still struggling for both a breath and a way out. His desperate attempts to kick or hit the bigger man are futile.]]

Bob Herman: Nytrus is a bear... look at that I think Marino is going to give up

Thomas Simon: Nytrus is quickly proving that he's an unstoppable force here in MPW

[[Marino is starting to lose his stamina but Nytrus' grip remains strong. slowly Marino's flails and attempts to hurt the man get weaker and weaker and eventually he shakes his head at the ref that he's done. With a huge smile, Nytrus drops the broken man to the mat and shouts out his victory. Nikki slides into the ring and grabs his arm, pushing away the ref.]]

Winner via Submission: Brandon Nytrus

Thomas Simon: there you have it folks. Marino didn't even stand a chance against the Hardcore Icon

Bob Herman: My vote is for Nytrus for the win at Aftershock, I think we're looking at the future X-core champion right there

Thomas Simon: I don't know about that Bob but he's certainly the future of MPW.

[[Nytrus motions to Honey for a mic and she hands him one. he looks at Nikki before addressing the crowd.]]

Nytrus: Did you all see that? I barely broke a sweat. I came out and I did exactly what I said I was going to do. Just one more win to prove that I deserve to be here. At Aftershock I will walk out of that ring a new champion. The very first X-Core champion that is but I'm not going to stop there. My sights are set much higher, so high in fact that I'm going to keep on going until that World title belt is in it's rightful place around my waist.

[[the crowd boos him and he rolls his eyes with exaggeration]]

Nytrus: Boo me all you want it's not going to change the inevitable. What everyone fails to realize is that I had Trey Baxter at Fusion. Me, a so called 'rookie' when others have never even gotten close to what I almost had. Trey you're no better than junk food. You give the fans a cheap dinner but in the end, they just end up hungry in an hour anyway. It won't be long before people start saying 'Baxter who?'. The big difference between you and I Trey is that I have real potential. I've demolished almost every single opponent that has been thrown at me, so you see why I have a score to settle. I don't care who you are, what belt you hold or even how much you bench press, I will prove that I can squash you... just like I've squashed every single person that's had the misfortune of coming into my path. so this is far from over Baxter.... Better keep one eye open when you sleep and always be looking over your shoulder....cuz i just may be waiting...

[[He drops the mic, grabs Nikki's hand and starts to get out of the ring.]]

Thomas Simon: Nytrus is a monster and poor Michael Marino was in the wrong place at the wrong time

Bob Herman: Nytrus is hungry for gold and won't stop until he gets it!

[[Justin Fischer is seen walking toward an office. He doesn't bother to knock. From the desk Madd Katt looks up, a little alarmed to see him coming in without an invitation]]

Madd Katt: Have ya heard of knocking squirt?

Justin Fischer: Heard of it... not a fan personally.

Madd Katt: What do you want Mr. Fischer. Can't you see im busy here?

Justin Fischer: You have no idea what your missing by not booking me in actual real matches... instead you have me in a match to try and get you the GM spot. I'm not your puppet

[[The crowd buzzes as Madd Katt smiles and folds his hands together]]

Madd Katt: You've been complaining that I don't recognize the skill you have. You want more spotlight...well I'm giving it to you. I didn't pick your opponent for Aftershock...I simply chose who I thought could win. Biguns picked her own opponent... And it's Titan

[[The crowd buzzes some more as Madd Katt can't but wipe the smile from his face]]

Justin Fischer: Yeah and chose my brother because he's all strength and no personality

Madd Katt: No I think she chose your brother because she thought it would be the ultimate insult if you lost to him.

[[Justin rolls his eyes]]

Madd Katt: Just be thankful it wasn't your sister instead. Win this match and we'll discuss the future.

Justin Fischer: I don't have to prove myself to you or anybody else in this fed. I know I'm the best.

[[Madd Katt chuckles to himself]]

Madd Katt: ok then. I should have nothing to worry about come the PPV should I? If you really are the best then I chose correctly.

Justin Fischer: Don't try and use that reverse psychology shit on me. You forget who your speaking to...

[[Madd Katt slams his hand down on the desk and stands up to get in Fischers face]]

Madd Katt: Nope. I haven't forgotten. I read everything about you when you come over to TNT. I know perfectly well what your capable of and what your known for. Fine, you don't like the words "proving yourself". You can call it anything you want, the fact of the matter is that I'd like to keep my job and well I don't overlook those that help me out when I need it. look at it more as doing me a favor. You can do that can't you?

[[Fischer stares in to Madd Katt with a snarl]]

Madd Katt: I know you came here thinking you could threaten me into changing the match or bending to your will. I have dealt with so many 'Justin Fischer's' in my day that your not a novelty to me. Everything is staying the same and you will face Titan at After Shock and I'm confident that you'll win. Now as I was saying... I have more important things to deal with right now so if you don't mind....

[[He picks up the phone and dials. Justin watches him a minute]]

Madd Katt: Hello there... and how is the lovely lady doing today? Is my man any better?

[[Madd Katt waves Justin out of his office and continues his conversation.]]

Stephen Hale: I am here to address some rumors that have been circulating as of late involving my involvement in a certain Television Championship match at After Shock.

[[The lights go out, and the stage fills with green, and out comes Ash in a white wife beater, torn jeans, black tapped from hand to forearm, one black elbow pad on the right side.]]

Honey Winters: Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 239 pounds… Ash, Soulsfate!

[[He walks at a comfortable pace, smirking most of the time, depending on his opponent. He rolls into the ring, and goes to the corner and props his self up on the corner turnbuckle awaiting his opponent. As the lights go dim through the arena. Fog covers the runway and the sound of "Fingerprints" by Katy Perry begins to play through the speakers. Out steps Jayde Brooklyn and the crowd cheers for her.]]

Honey Winters: From Knoxville, Tennessee, “The Knoxville Knockout”… Jayde Brooklyn!

[[She takes off walking towards the ring. She steps up on the ring apron black confetti and silver sparks burst out of one turnbuckle and pink confetti and silver sparks comes out from another. Jayde enters the ring and walks dead center and stops. She looks through the crowd and then hops upon the turnbuckle and raises her arms.The bell rings as Jayde hops down from the second rope and the match begins.]]

Thomas Simon: Here we go, our second and final X-Core qualifying match of the evening.

Bob Herman: One of these guys better step it up here tonight… It would be awesome to see either one of these two make it big.

[[Ash and Jayde tie up and the obviously stronger Ash sends Jayde down on her back and into the corner. Ash has a smile on his face and gestures a “c'mon” as Jayde stands back up. Ash goes to grab her but she slides underneath him and through his legs, ending up on the other side. He turns around to get straight rights to the face. Pounding and pounding, sending Ash inch by inch into the corner. She drives her shoulder into the gut of Ash once he's in the corner completely. She backs off and turns back around. She charges and lands a perfect running drop kick into the chest of Ash, who goes tumbling down to the canvas.]]

Bob Herman: What a move by that girl right there!

Thomas Simon: She brought her stuff tonight, you can tell.

[[Jayde rolls to the outside to take advantage of the time she has created for herself. She picks up a steel chair from beside the announcer table and folds it up. She slides it into the ring and follows behind it. As Ash begins to stand, she waits in anticipation with chair in hand. He turns up and ducks underneath the chair shot and flies off the ropes and lands a DDT, crashing Jayde's head into the ground.]]]

Thomas Simon: And the momentum shifts!

[[Ash picks up the chair and shakes off the pain from before. He looks down and awaits for his opponent to stand. He slams the chair on the canvas a couple of times signaling for her to get up. She slowly picks herself up, only to be cracked in the back by the chair sending her back down to the canvas. The crack was so loud, the crowd groans in pain along with Jayde, who is screaming, holding her back.]]

Bob Herman: That could've broken Jayde's back!

[[Ash holds the chair up and a mixture of reactions come from the crowd. The “real” fans of wrestling cheer, and the little kids boo. He throws the chair in the center of the ring and picks Jayde up.]]

Thomas Simon: Oh no! He's going for the AMF! AMF!

[[He waits a second and smiles. He goes to throw her off his shoulders but she flips just enough to land on her feet and kick him between the legs. The crowd grunts and groans at the sight of the man's men getting shattered by the boot of Jayde Brooklyn.]]

Bob Herman: Ooo! That hurt me, Tommy… Ouch.

Thomas Simon: You can say that again…

[[Jayde falls to her hands and knees in pain and pants a bit. Catching her breath, she stands and goes for the chair. It's a bit bent from the contact before with her back. She picks it up and slams it into the back of the kneeling Soulsfate. A huge pop from the crowd to see the good girl getting her payback from before.]]

Bob Herman: Did you see that!? Ouch… He'll feel that in the morning…

[[Ash cringes in pain and curdles over and goes head first into the canvas, screaming. Jayde picks him up slowly but aggressively. He gets on one foot and then with a sudden burst of adrenaline he picks her up on his shoulders and hits the AMF.]]

Bob Herman: Wow! It's over! It's over! Cover her!

[[Soulsfate is too tired and hurt to crawl and make the cover so the two just lay there in pain… Not moving. After a couple of moments, Soulsfate begins to stand up. He picks himself enough to get out of the ring and under the apron. He grabs a table and slowly slides it in the ring. He rolls in quickly behind it and struggles while setting it up, but has enough time to do so. Meanwhile, Jayde is slowly standing up and seeing the situation she is in, but really can't do anything about it. Ash sees her and grabs her. He pulls her over to the turnbuckle and lifts her up onto the top rope. Ash puts her on his shoulders to set up for the AMF once again. He then climbs up one more rope so he's on the second. The crowd is on their feet watching until… Boom.][

Thomas Simon: Oh my god!! AMF through the table! Ash has got it in the bag! Wow!

Roxi Johnson: My pleasure Tim!

Tim Bowers: Roxi, next week on Pay Per View at After shock you will take on Bloodhound for a number one contender spot for the Television Championship. You and Bloodhound have been at it for weeks, will this finally be the end of this?

[[Roxi lets out a shriek as she is attacked from behind by Bloodhound. He stands over her and looks at Tim Bowers. He takes the microphone and pushes Tim away]]

Bloodhound: You are looking at the NEW number one contender for the Television Championship! Watch After Shock because there will be a lot more of this!

She holds herself up with the ropes as she leans forward and gives the two finger salute. She jumps over the top rope and rushes her way to the top turnbuckle. She pulls off her vest and tosses it into the crowd before jumping off the turnbuckle and into the center of the ring.]]

[[The referee waits for both competitors to settle and get ready. The music fades as the bell rings and the two women lock up. Vandal connects with some blows to the midsection. Hope backs off and gets a straight elbow to the jaw from Calista and goes backwards. Vandal grabs Hope and hits a side effect sending Hope's back right into the canvas.]]

Bob Herman: Wow. What a move!

[[The crowd cheers for Vandal. Hope picks herself up. Slowly, but she does so cautiously. Calista walks over to Hope and slaps her on the back on the exposed skin. There is a crack from the slap and the crowd oo's along with it. Hope screams out in pain. Vandal pulls Hope up and goes for a DDT but Hope pulls out of it and drop kicks Vandal who goes sliding out of the ring. Hope rolls out in anger. She grabs Vandal's hair and sits on her back and pulls. The ref crawls out of the ring and tries to pry Hope from Calista. Hope lets go and goes into the ring and lets the referee count. 1... Calista hasn't moved at all. 2... Hope gets down on her knees and waits. 3... Hope watches in anticipation. 4... Calista begins to move a bit. 5... She's up on her hands and knees. 6... Hope begins to get worried and anxious as Vandal is almost at her feet. 7... Calista stands up and looks to the ring. 8... She begins to move towards the apron. 9.….. She slides herself into the ring.]]

Bob Herman: Wow! So close…

Thomas Simon: Hope almost defeated Vandal right there! Too close!

[[The crowd cheers a bit. Vandal begins to stand but Hope kicks her straight on the bridge of the nose which sends her flying backwards. The crowd grimaces. Vandal holds her nose and has a slight nose bleed. Hope picks her up and locks in a sleeper hold. Hope's grip isn't really tight and as quick as she locked it on, Vandal gets out of it and with a rush of adrenaline, she kicks Hope in the side of the head and afterwards, she falls back down.]]

Thomas Simon: Both women down. What's gonna happen?

Bob Herman: I don't know… These two are putting it all on the line!

[[Hope and Calista both try to stand and Calista is the first to her feet. She looks over to Hope and charges and suddenly, out of nowhere, hits the S.L.C. Punt.]]

Thomas Simon: Out of nowhere! Wow! S.L.C. Punt!

Bob Herman: This is over!

[[Vandal covers Hope.]]

1.....2.......3!

Honey Winters: Here is your winner… Calista Vandal!!

Winner via Pinfall: Calista Vandal

Bob Herman: What a match!

Thomas Simon: That was awesome!

Bob Herman: It seems that there is a ruckus backstage Thomas!

[[Backstage officials are in between Johnny Clash and Trey Baxter. Trey seems fired up and Johnny has his hands up with an “I didn't do anything” look on his face and a smirk. Biguns stands behind him yelling also.]]

Madd Katt: Woe Woe Woe! What the hell is going on here!

Trey Baxter: That bastard tried stealing the Heavyweight Championship! He was in my locker room holding the damn thing!

Johnny Clash: I wanted to give it a proper home since being around your waist is like Olivia Wilde living in a trailer park

Trey Baxter: You are a piece of shit you know that!?

Johnny Clash: Calm down Trey. I wasn't stealing your belt I was simply just trying it on. I had to see how it looked because after next week it will be home to daddy.

Jackson Blaze: I hope by Daddy you mean me Clash?

[[Jackson walks in to the scene and stands to the right of the commotion. He smirks and stares across at Madd Katt]]

Jackson Blaze: Look at you two fighting like little kids. Did Johnny steal your toy Trey? Maybe you shouldn't leave them around carelessly.

[[Apostle Kried comes in to the scene standing next to Madd Katt, towering over him]]

Apostle Kried: All three of you sound ignorant. Trey, watch that belt. Go shine it and get it ready because it will be mine next week!

Trey Baxter: Oh yeah sounds good, keep stumbling over your words neanderthal. I'm done here. Get your little hands off me

[[Trey pushes the referees away and turns to walk away]]

Johnny Clash: Yup walking away like a little bitch!

[[Trey turns around and runs through the referee and jumps on Johnny with fists. Biguns yells and moves away. Jackson and Kried than start going at it as well.]]

Madd Katt: HEY HEY!!

[[The brawl continues and than more referees and security run in to break it up. They pull all four of them apart]]

Madd Katt: Biguns, keep that scum bag on a leash. Trey, back off before I strip that title. Jackson, Kried, get your asses back to your locker rooms, you aren't even booked tonight.

[[They all stand up separated breathing heavily. They turn and walk in different directions. Madd Katt palms his forehead and shakes his head]]

Madd Katt: Im a GM not a baby sitter!

[[The crowd in the Orleans Arena bustle in anticipation for what is coming next. “Hit That” by Offspring plays on the PA system as the little hero, Chicken, makes his way to the ring in his ring attire. He holds a microphone in his hand and takes a long look at the crowd and smiles with the thought of these people cheering for him. He makes his way to the ring and climbs the turnbuckle. He raises both arms up and yells as the crowd pops for him. As he hops down, he begins to speak.]]

Chicken: For weeks now, I've been proving that I can be a professional wrestler. And that I can beat some of the best. For example, I beat one of the best wrestlers in this company in Brandon Nytrus. Next, last week I qualified for the X-Core Championship match at After Shock. And it this all started when that idiot Brandon Nytrus told me I couldn't be what I wanted to be. He told me it's not worth it and to just quit. But I didn't. No, no. I kept going. Now, I'm at his level. And right now? I might just say I'm better than him at the moment.

[[At that moment, the crowd immediately starts to boo as The Hardcore Icon's girlfriend, Nikki, makes her way onto the stage to no music.]]

Nikki: Hello Chicken. I know we haven't met quite yet… But you know, what you've been saying about my boyfriend, is neither fair nor is it accurate. You see, my boyfriend has been and forever will be better than you. I mean, face it. I'm taller than you are. You did not beat him. You tied with him because you made him botch a move. Do NOT try and make that into your little success story.

Chicken: You don't know what happened… You weren't there. You have no idea!!

[[All of a sudden, “Stricken” plays and Brandon Nytrus makes his way onto the stage in his ring attire.]]

Brandon: I've been listening in the back, and I've heard the things you've said, Chicken. I have to say that I completely disagree with you. On all levels. Just because we tied doesn't make you better than me. I've beaten you to a pulp and you know it. You can't beat me. Ever. And at After Shock? I will be the X-Core Champion. And you will be sitting there, watching me leave with the title around my waist. You're pathetic.

Chicken: Brandon, this isn't about what happened in the past anymore. It-it's about what's gonna happen when I beat you to a pulp at After Shock and win the X-Core Championship. We will meet one on one once again and you will get to see how much I have improved. This time, it's not gonna be another walk in the park. You will be challenged because I am better than you!!

[[He looks away as the crowd pops for him. He doesn't believe he said that. He feels proud.]]

Brandon: That's it, punk. You're gonna regret saying that.

[[Brandon throws the mic down and books it towards the ring. Chicken, stunned and confused awaits for him to come. As soon as Brandon makes it into the ring, Chicken ducks the clothesline and slides out of the ring and tries to leave the arena, only to be stopped by Nikki on the ramp. He tries to get back in, but Brandon has made his way outside the ring and is standing behind him. Brandon tries for a punch but swings and misses as Chicken ducks again and follows up with a slap across the face to Brandon. Who falls back and the crowd pops in surprise and before Brandon can retaliate, Chicken has already hopped the barricade and is running towards the exit.]]

Thomas Simon: Holy… Haha! Chicken just slapped the Icon!

Bob Herman: Wow… That was a dumb decision on Chicken's part… You can't do that to someone like Brandon… He will get you back…

Thomas Simon: I guess we'll just have to wait and see what Brandon's gonna do…

Bob Herman: And After Shock is coming up… I don't know who will win, but after seeing what just happened… These guys are gonna lay it all on the line!

[[Scene cuts to black as we see Brandon's face in shock.]]

MAIN EVENT
Singles Match

[["In Ashes They Shall Reap" By Hatebreed begins to play and the arena goes dark. Red lazors begin flashing around the arena, and the ramp begins to put out smoke. The lights begin to flash blood red as Kuk Killswitch rises up from the ramp on a throne. The titantron shows "The Ring is my Kingdom" in big medieval looking letters. Barbedwire covers the outsides of the throne and weapons, blood, and chains cove the rest. Kuk sits in the throne with a large black King's cape which covers his his whole shoulder area and torso and goes down to his feet. A large crown sits upon his head covered in brutal barbedwire and in the front has 2 Kendo Sticks crossed. Kuk sits there for a moment, soaking in the boos before he stands up and throws his head back, knocking off his King's cape and crown as fireworks explode behind him. He now wears a sleeveless "Ultraviolent" Hoodie, and his normal entrance attire. He walks down the ramp, yelling and trash talking back at the crowd who does the same to him.]]

Honey Winters: Weighing in at 200 pounds, hailing from Hell's Kitchen, New York, he is The Hardcore Reject... KUK KILLLSWITTTCHHH!

[[Kuk is at the bottom of the ramp and he turns to walk towards the steps. He turns towards the fans and looks at everyone of them. He get's in their faces and begin yelling expletives towards them before turning around and walking up the stairs. He orders the ref to open the ropes for him and the ref does. Kuk shoves the ref over and laughs as he get's in the ring. He hops up on the turnbuckle and points to himself with his thumbs yelling "MY KINGDOM!" out at the crowd. He turns around and sits on the top turnbuckle, waiting for the match to begin. "Lights Out" cues as fireworks go off and Justin Fischer appears at the top of the ramp. he walks down wearing a T-shirt with the words "In the end" across the front and "I always win" written across the back. Once he gets to the ring, he stands and waits for his opponent, not even caring about the fans booing him.]]

Honey Winters: and his opponent, from Ontario Canada, Justin Fischer

[[The bell rings as Kuk and Justin come together. They immediately trade right hands repeatedly until Justin finally gets the upper hand as a hard right sends Kuk down the the mat. Kuk quickly bounces back to his feet but he's immediately hit with a hard clothesline that sends Kuk down hard. As Kuk makes his way to his feet his hit with a boot to the stomach followed by a DDT.

Fischer sits up as he gives the ref a pissed off look before beginning to stomp on Kuk! After a few hard shots the referee pulls Justin off. Justin pulls the referee off him before walking back over to Kuk who is trying to get to his feet. Justin grabs Kuk by the arm and tries to whip him into the ropes but Kuk reverses it and sends Justin flying into the ropes.]]

Thomas Simon: Good reversal by Kuk

Bob Herman: These two are very evenly matched

[[As Justin bounces off the rope he tries to hit Kuk with a clothesline but Kuk ducks under it, bounces off the ropes, and then hits Fischer with a hard spear! He falls onto Justin for the pin. 1...2..kickout! Fischer kicks out! Kuk slowly gets to his feet and picks up Fischer before grabbing him around the waist and suplexing him halfway across the ring. He quickly gets to his feet as Justin is slowly trying to make it to his. Kuk decides to climb up to the rope rope as he waits for Fischer to get to his feet. As Fischer gets to his feet and turns around Kuk jumps off and connects with a flying clothesline! ]]

Bob Herman: a great move by Kuk Killswitch!

Thomas Simon: Kuk has so many moves in his arsenal

[[He hooks Fischers leg for the pin! 1...2..kickout! Fischer does it again! Kuk site up as he is frustrated by not being able to get the win. He stomps on the still fallen Justin before picking him up, grabbing him by the head and holding him there for a moment before hitting him with the Flick of the Switch! This might be over! He sits there with a sick smile in his face before pinning Fischer. 1...2..kickout! Fischer somehow kicks out yet again. Kuk stands up and begins to argue with the ref for a few seconds before deciding to climb up to the tope rope yet again. He climbs up, stands straight up, and then jumps off going for a frog splash but Fischer rolls out of the way! Kuk connects with the mat and immediately grabs his stomach in pain!]]

Thomas Simon: It doesn't work the second time for Kuk!

[[They both lay there for a few moments before they finally begin to make their way to their feet. The fans begin to cheer as they come together and begin to exchange punches just like they did at the beginning of the match. This time Kuk nails with a hard left followed by a hard right that sends Fischer down. Fischer quickly gets to his feet meanwhile Kuk bounces off the ropes and goes for a clothesline but Fischer ducks under and then kicks Kuk in the stomach before hitting him with the Cruise Control!

[[Fischer's music hits and he smiles in to the camera. He than looks at the ramp and takes a double take and fleas the ring. Ash Soulsfate runs in the ring and looks down at Kuk Killswitch. He holds a singapore cane in his hand and begins swinging away at Kuk Killswitch.]]

Thomas Simon: What is Ash doing !?

[[Ash swings away until the fans cheer and Chicken runs down the ramp with a garbage can. He slides throws it in to the ring and slides in after it. He picks it up and charges at Ash knocking him out with the can.]]
