[The pyros explode as the Minnesota crowd goes nuts for TNT! The camera zooms around at all the signs and the cheering fans as it ends on the announce table]

Thomas Simon: Welcome fans and Happy Independence Day from us at MPW!

Richie Rhodes: We have a great show for you tonight so don't change that channel because you don't want to miss this!

Thomas Simon: Let's kick it off with the debut of Angel Kash!

Match 1

[Thomas Simon: Adam Steele is already in the ring ready to kick off another action packed edition of TNT]

Richie Rhodes: Yeah Yeah who cares about Adam Steele, the big deal here is his debuting Trillion Dollar Bitch Angel Kash.... shhh here she comes

I'm running your city, racks I got plenty,
You don't know a bad bitch like me, it ain't many
I can pull up in the Mini with my skirt real mini,
And let your nigga and tell me how he feel me.


[The fans begin to boo loudly as the opening cords of Lady Gaga's "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich hits over the PA system, as the arena lights dim, and begin flashing all over, a gold carpet rolls out, and out steps Angel Kash who has a smug look on her face, as she is greeted by a loud chorus of boos! She smirks before striking a pose for the fans who are booing the arrogant young woman who just takes it in stride.]


Yes I talk shit, you weak toast, middle finger, speed off.
Bad bitch, big Benz, get money, fuck friends.
Bitch, I elevate, out in DCing,
I met the finish line where the game ends,
With my top off in my spaceship
I'm looking 3D, I'm in your face bitch.


[As she begins her arrogant supermodel style strut to the ring, trash talking, and taunting the fans as they boo her, she finally sticks her hand rudely out and puts it up to the fans to mean "talk to the hand!" As she slowly climbs the steps she yells at the ref to lower the ropes for her, which he does. She then does a bow, to taunt to the fans some more which only gets her more boos, as she climbs onto the second turnbuckle to do some more taunting, and then sits on the top turnbuckle, taking her ring entrance trademark black fur rope and hands it to the stage hand, as she lays on the turnbuckle nonchalantly, and her music cuts. 

Richie Rhodes: That girl is hawt!!!

Thomas Simon: Well from what I heard she is more than just a pretty face

Richie Rhodes: Hell yeah look at those ti....

Thomas Simon: I think the match is starting now

The referee call for the bell and Adam instantly starts to circle his opponent. Angel jumps down and struts towards him. Steele cautiously keeping his distance as Kash flicks her head throwing her hair back. Slowly Adam advances challenging Kash for a lock up, but The Trillion Dollar Bitch just ignores him and stares down at her nails

Richie Rhodes: Look at that idiot, he doesn't even know how to approach a woman of her caliber
Thomas Simon: Its called caution Richie, Adam Steele is no stranger to the fact that you can't underestimate the women of MPW

Boo's start coming from the dissatisfied crowd, as Adam with look of confusion once more moves in for a lock up, but Angel still ignores him. Steele stops with and stares at her with a helpless look as he turns his back to her and shrugs. Kash takes advantage of her opponent dropping his guard and clobbers Steele with an elbow to the back of the head, Adam stumbles forward into the ropes and Angel quickly follows up choking him with the top rope. The crowd is erupting in jeers as she breaks at the count of four and lets Adam stagger back into the ring center, before cutting him down with a chop block. Instantly she leaps back to her feet and starts kicking the defenseless Adam in the ribs. Steele rolls away into the corner and sits up as Kash once more flicks her hair back with a smirk to a concert of boo's from the fans. Out of nowhere she suddenly explodes towards her sitting opponent nailing him with a boot to the face and starts stomping the living daylights out off him.

Richie Rhodes: I think I'm in love, look at how she is manhandling that buffoon

Thomas Simon: Yeah after a cheap shot!!!.... I must admit Angel Kash has been impressive here in the early goings, but I do not like her methods

Richie Rhodes: OH you one of those who likes to cuddle first?

Thomas Simon: I wont even dignify that with an answer, besides Angel has Adam back on his feet inside the ring

With a side headlock Angel is dragging her opponent around, pointing towards the turnbuckles, looking to ram Adam head first into the corner. Steele manages to lift her up just as she starts to run, her feet kicking the air wildly as Adam goes for the backdrop to cheers from the crowd. Kash rolls over his shoulder landing behind her opponent and swiftly reaching back grabbing Steele's head and drops down with a neckbreaker, then elegantly rolling into a cover

Richie Rhodes: This is it The Trillion Dollar Bitch has her way with Adam Steele

1...2... Kickout by Steele, who pushes his opponent off and sits up. Kash immediately springs up and into the ropes going for a kick to the back as she bounces off, but Steele rolls out of the way sweeping her leg away as she passes to a pop from the crowd. Still dazed Adam gets to his feet and shakes his head as he turns to face his opponent, who meets him with a slap.

Richie Rhodes: HA! When you mistreat a lady you get bitch slapped

Thomas Simon: Something you have a lot of experience with, right?... But it doesn't seem Adam Steele is one who takes that sort of thing lightly

Rage is burning in the eyes of Adam as he rights himself from the slap and stares straight into Angel's eyes. Once more Kash goes for the slap, but Steele catches her hand and fires back with a slap of his own sending the Trillion Dollar Bitch stumbling backwards with a stunned look on her face as the crowd roars.

Thomas Simon: Seems like that slap fired up something in Adam Steele, as we for the first time tonight see him on the offensive

Richie Rhodes: He can't bitchslap her like that, he should be disqualified

Thomas Simon: why? She did the same to him

Richie Rhodes: Take a look at her, she is The Trillion Dollar Bitch... I would let her bitch slap me no matter what

Thomas Simon: Enough about your perversions, we are here to comment on whats going on in the ring

Quickly Adam moves over and grabs Angel by the arm whipping her into the ropes setting up for a bodydrop, but Kash stops herself at the ropes and lands a kick to the chest of the waiting Steele. Bouncing off the ropes to gain momentum Angel charges stepping off on her opponent and wraps her legs around his neck, for the headscissors. Steele is twisted around, but stops the move catching Angel with a waist lock. Kash is screaming loudly to cheers from the crowd, as Adam sidesteps to get into position with the back to the corner, hoisting Angel up and throwing her into the turnbuckles with The Steele Bomb.

Richie Rhodes: NOOOOOO!!!!! He cant do that to such a pretty face

Thomas Simon: But he did and goes for the cover

1...2... Angel's foot is on the bottom rope, frustrated Steele rises and drags her with him, the fans are roaring as he lift her up over his shoulder and sets up for the Air Raid Crash

Thomas Simon: Adam Steele showing off his new arsenal of moves here as he goes for the Adam Bomb

Richie Rhodes: I would call it a damn shame, this guy treat woman like they were equals

Thomas Simon: I think many women's activist would be happy about that comment

Richie Rhodes: Oh shut up

Just as Steele sets into motion, Kash wiggles free and flips him to the mat with a sunsetflip, Adam rolls through and back to his feet. Slowly Kash rises flicking her hair back as she stares furiously over at Steele, who stares back with a smile playing on his lips. Both are up and Adam is the first to charge in catching Kash in the collar and elbow, but before he can capitalize on his momentum, Angel is behind him with a waistlock, swiftly shifting into a headlock and driving Steele's head into the mat with a bulldog. On the mat, Kash elegantly spins around and locks Adam into The Liquidation.

Richie Rhodes: TAP TAP TAP DAMMIT!!!!

Suddenly there is a pop from the crowd as Matt Steele comes storming down the ramp and jumps up in the corner stretching his arm out to his brother. The referee turns toward him and tries to get the younger Steele brother to go down from the apron, just as Adam manages to get a hold of the ropes.

Richie Rhodes: The idiot doesn't get that this is a singles match

Thomas Simon: Seems like Matt is out to help his brother, but he is really helping Angel Kash more.

The crowd is jeering as Kash keeps the hold locked in despite Adam holding on to the bottom rope, the referee is still arguing with Matt. Angel finally releases the hold and instead lifts Adam up on the bottom rope stepping up on his neck and choking him. The fans are roaring in disapproval as Angel still standing on Adam uses the time to check her nails. Slowly she steps down and backs up a few steps grabbing Steele's legs and lifting him up landing a brutal kick between his legs, to a collective “OHHHH” by every male in the crowd

Richie Rhodes: There goes the Steele Jewels, probably good not to let this idiot reproduce

[Steele is rolling around holding his groin as Kash instantly looks around before grabbing her title and pulling the groggy and hurting Adam to his feet nailing him with the Priceless Title Shot. Instantly she jumps back to her feet and charges the opposite corner knocking down Matt with a high knee, before dragging the ref back over to the lifeless Adam Steele

Thomas Simon: No not like this, she is stealing the win

Richie Rhodes: I for one love it a win is a win is a win

1...2...3 Ding Ding ding

Honey Winters: And here is your winner AAAAANNNNNNGGGGGGEEEEELLLLL KKKKKAAAAASSSSSSHHHHH!!!!

Arrogantly Kash stands and bows out to the booing crowd as we go to the announce table]

Thomas Simon: Fans we are going to take you back last week to the heinus actions of Jason Xavier. After his match with Chrissy Starr he took things a little too far.

LAST WEEK: [Jason gets his hand raised as Chrissyy lays on the ground holding her neck. He pulls his hand away from the referee. He exits the ring and starts to walk up the ramp]

Thomas Simon: It appears that Chrissy Starr has injured her neck here. We need to get some medics out here

Richie Rhodes: That X-Cutter should have been it. She didn't have to kick out. There was nothing to prove

[Jason X is on the stage watching and he looks out to the fans and smiles. He starts to walk back down the ramp]

Richie Rhodes: it looks like Jason X is coming to check on Chrissy

Thomas Simon: I don't think that's what he is doing. Just walk away Jason! you already won

[Jason walks to the ring as the Medics run past him with a neck brace and stretcher. Jason looks at them and pushes the stretcher down. He pie faces one of the EMT's and the other runs away. The referee tries to prevent Jason from getting in the ring but he pulls the ref out and throws him in to the barricade. Jason pauses for the boo's from the fans to rain down on him. He goes under the ring apron and searches. He finally pulls out a table]

Thomas Simon: No... can't anyone stop this?

Richie Rhodes: Like I said, new superstars have to earn their stripes. There is no one back there for her. She has to learn the hard way

[Jason slides the table in the ring. He sets it up and then grabs Chrissy by the hair. She yelps and tries to fight him off. He slams her in to the corner face first. He lifts her up and places her on the turnbuckle. He moves to the apron and climbs. He gets to the top and grabs Chrissy by the head again. He puts her between his legs and sets her up for a powerbomb]

Thomas Simon: NO NO NO!!!!!!

[Jason lifts her up and balances himself on the top rope. He jumps off with a sit down powerbomb through the table. Chrissy lays motionless as the crowd stirs uncomfortably.]

Thomas Simon: oh... my... God

Richie Rhodes: he actually did it...

[The crowd pops as Johnny Clash and Brandon Nytrus rush to the ring. Jason X slides out and exits through the crowd avoiding them. Johnny leans over to help her as Nytrus signals the back for help. More EMT's and another stretcher make their way down to the ring. The crowd watches silently as the EMT's check on her.]

Thomas Simon: She appears to be conscious... she's pointing to her neck

Richie Rhodes: she could be paralyzed

[Chrissy is placed on the stretcher with a neck brace. Clash and Nytrus walk with the EMT's and her on the stretcher up the ramp]

[“King of the Stereo” by Saliva plays form the speakers and the place erupts. Brandon Nytrus and Johnny Clash enter on the stage.]

Thomas Simon: I guess we’ll be hearing from the Icon and from the King of Clash themselves.

Richie Rhodes: Ugh. What do these idiots have to say?

[The two have made their way down the ramp and into the ring. They show off to the crowd. The crowd stays loud. They grab microphones and the music dies down.]

Brandon: What a crowd here in St. Paul, huh, Johnny?

[They cheer loudly.]

Johnny: You’ve got that right.

Brandon: Now… We’re here on official business. Seriously. We’re here to discuss the current state of our good friend, Chrissy Starr.

[The crowd cheers loudly.]

Johnny: Chrissy is currently in the hospital and is feeling much better than before. She sends her regards and hopes to return real soon.

Brandon: Now, we would like to move on to something that both Johnny and I have been dealing with for quite sometime.

[They pause.]

Johnny: Iconic Aggression.

[They boo loudly.]

Johnny: I know, I know… We hate them too.

Brandon: Trust us, we know what you’re feeling right now.

Johnny: But listen. We have an inside source, telling us about the lighter side of Iconic Aggression.

Brandon: That’s right. The romantic and sweeter side.

Johnny: Let us explain.

[A picture shows up on the titantron.]



Johnny: This is our dear friend Trey Baxter. Your MPW World Heavyweight Champion.

Brandon: But uh oh… It looks like someone’s in trouble.

Johnny: Yup. Little do you guys know… Trey has a secretive and sly side. This picture was taken when Jackson Blaze had walked into his parents room and found Trey in his parents bed.

[The crowd “oo”s.]

Johnny: With his father.

[The crowd laughs and “oo”s louder.]

Brandon: Okay. Now, I have one of our Television Champion, Lucas King.



[The crowd laughs loudly.]

Brandon: Now, little do you know about our TV Champ… He’s kind of… Well… Slow. 

[Johnny and the rest of the crowd laugh.]

Brandon: When most people think that Lucas is slyly thinking about ways to take out his opponents and to get a win next week, he’s actually thinking… “DOPEY DOPEY DOE.”

[The crowd laughs loudly.]

Johnny: Okay, finally we have at picture of our Sin City Champion, Jackson Blaze.



[The crowd laughs very loudly.]

Brandon: I just think this one speaks for itself…

Johnny: Well, I think we all know that Jackson is a little slow himself.

Brandon: Woah, woah, woah… A little?

[Johnny pauses and sighs.]

Johnny: Okay, he’s very slow. Like… Wow. But, I think we can figure out why Jackson and his little boyfriends are so slow.

[Brandon nods.]

Brandon: You’re right. Jackson, Trey, and Lucas are slow because power and sex just go their head. It’s been a problem for so long. Champions and just all around rich people let the sex and power go to their head.

Johnny: BUT, the sex isn’t with the girls they meet around the world.

Brandon: No, it’s with each other.

Johnny: You’re absolutely right, Brandon. Who else sees these champions outside of their own dressing rooms and hotel rooms? Hell, they SHARE a hotel room.

Brandon: Is that not a HUGE clue or not?

[“Guerrilla Radio” plays from the speakers. Iconic Aggression enters onto the stage in suits, holding their titles over their shoulders. The crowd pops with boos.]

Trey Baxter: very funny guys VERY Funny. You two should do stand up really im so impressed. There's one thing you forgot though. I have beaten the both of you and on multiple occassions. Before you say anything Johnny yes we know you beat me for the World Title. If you remember correctly it was I who pinned you afterwards in a non title match and it was I who pinned you to eliminate you from the Chamber at Uprising. And Nytrus it speaks for itself and tonight it will again.

Brandon: We will see about that Trey I..

Trey Baxter: Calm down there Jolly Green Giant. When I beat you tonight I will name my opponent for the World Title. You can bet your ass it won't be either of you two and if you are able to walk out tonight in one piece than more power to you. But you won't and that's a fact. You see we are Iconic Aggression we aren't the Bean Town Idiots or whatever you used to call your crew Brandon and we certaintly aren't the True Wrestling Icons. We are better we are the best and tonight you will find out just how damn good we are.

[Trey drops the mic as the music hits once more and the scene cuts]

Match 2

Honey Winters: The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Las Vegas, NV, weighing in at 210lbs, JASON X!!!

[As "X Gonna Give It to Ya" By DMX begins to blast through the P.A. system, white smoke fills the entrance. A figure steps in and can be seen in the smoke, Jason X stands at the top of the entrance with his arms up in an X. He continues to walk down the ramp and enters the ring, he then climbs the turnbuckles and again puts his arms in an X form. Jason backs up towards his corner as he waits for his opponent...]

Thomas Simon: I still am sickened by what this man did last week to Chrissy Starr.

Richie Rhodes: Neither could the ring crew. They were one table short this week for this week’s Takedown...

Thomas Simon: I’m wrong, maybe it’s you that sickens me Richie...

Honey Winters: And his opponent, from New York City, NY, weighing in at 212lbs, TYLER AXE!!!

["Dragula" plays over the PA as Tyler Axe comes to the stage area, he looks at the crowd and throws his hand up before going to the ring. After high-fiving the fans he jumps into the ring and goes to the middle turnbuckle and places both thumbs over his throat before doing the cutting motion before chucking both arms in the air]

Thomas Simon: A great MPW debut for young Tyler Axe against Kuk Killswitch.

Richie Rhodes: Maybe he got the win, but it was Kuk who walked out of the ring last week as Axe was down in the ring...

Thomas Simon: Yeah, because of a cheap shot after the match!

Richie Rhodes: You call it cheap, I call it opportunistic...

[Before the referee can ring the bell, Jason X runs over to Tyler Axe, and grabs his right foot. Axe is caught completely by surprise as Jason pulls on Tyler’s leg, causing Tyler to fall face first into the turnbuckle. Axe falls to the ground, holding his head. Jason goes right after Tyler, kicking away at him on the ground. The referee goes to stop Jason, but Jason keeps avoiding the referee. After about ten stomps by Jason, the referee is finally able to pull him away and send him to his corner. The referee then checks on Tyler, asking if he’s okay. Tyler, using one arm to pull himself up in the corner, nods to the referee. The referee waits until Tyler is on his feet, and rings the bell to start the match...]

Thomas Simon: And yet another cheap shot from Jason X right there. The match had yet to even begin!

Richie Rhodes: Both men were in the ring, maybe Jason thought the bell rung already?

[As soon as he hears the bell, Jason runs toward Tyler, and nails him with a running shoulder thrust right to Tyler’s ribs. Jason stands up and starts kicking away at Tyler’s midsection, using the ropes for leverage. Tyler eventually falls to a sitting position in the corner, and Jason pushes his right foot down on Tyler’s throat, and the referee starts his five count. 1...2...3...4... Jason X breaks the illegal hold. The referee starts arguing with Jason, but he just smiles as he goes back to Tyler, who is up to his knees. Jason tries to grab Tyler, but instead receives a blow to the gut, and followed by a second. Tyler makes it to his feet, delivering a forearm to the head of Jason, which sends Jason back to the ropes. Tyler runs up and grabs Jason and whips him to the opposite ropes. Jason comes back and leapfrogs over a ducking Tyler. On the rebound, Jason comes back right into a dropkick from Tyler. Jason gets up quickly, but is grabbed from behind by Tyler. Tyler lifts Jason and nails him with a back suplex. Tyler quickly goes for the pin. 1... KICKOUT! Tyler quickly grabs Jason by the head and applies a sitting headlock...]

Thomas Simon: It seems that the momentum has shifted in Axe’s favor...

Richie Rhodes: For now...

Thomas Simon: Man, you really don’t even try to use professionalism and call the match down the middle, do you?

Richie Rhodes: Nope.

[Jason slowly makes it to his feet and pulls Tyler to the ropes. Uses the momentum of the ropes, Jason pushes Tyler to the other side of the ring. Tyler rebound off of the ropes and comes back at Jason with a shoulder block that sends Jason crashing to the mat. Tyler quickly grabs Jason by the head and lifts him to his feet. Tyler brings Jason to a turnbuckle and drives him head first into the top turnbuckle. Jason grabs his head and leans in the corner. Tyler steps up onto the second rope and starts delivering shots to Jason’s head as the crowd counts each shot. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7. Jason is able to escape the corner under Tyler’s legs. Jason then pushes Tyler from behind who tumbles down over the top rope, hitting the outside apron, and falling on his left shoulder outside of the ring...]

Richie Rhodes: What a smart move by Jason. I don’t know if Tyler will be able to continue...

Thomas Simon: I hate agreeing with you Rhodes, but that was a veteran move by Jason X.

[Jason smiles in the ring as Tyler slowly gets to his feet outside of the ring, clutching his left shoulder. Jason runs to the opposite ropes, and comes back, hitting Tyler with a HUGE suicide dive from inside of the ring to the outside. Tyler takes the impact on his right side, but he then falls into the barricade with his left side, further hurting his shoulder. Jason quickly stands up and starts yelling at the fans as the referee starts his ten count. 1... 2... Jason picks Tyler up from the outside mat. 3... Jason grabs Tyler’s left arm and starts to pull him towards the ring. 4... 5... Jason whips Tyler shoulder first into the steel turnbuckle post, and Tyler immediately goes down, clutching his shoulder. 6... 7... Jason slides into the ring, and quickly back out to break up the ten count. The referee starts his count again as Jason grabs Tyler and lifts him to his knees. 1... Tyler delivers a blow to Jason’s midsection. 2... And another. 3... And another. 4... Jason kicks at Tyler’s left shoulder, which instantly stops any momentum Tyler may have been gaining. 5... 6... Jason picks up Tyler. 7... Jason tosses Tyler into the ring, and follows immediately to break the referee’s count...]

Thomas Simon: Tyler Axe is in major trouble folks. Jason X his targeting that injured shoulder masterfully.

Richie Rhodes: Couldn’t have said it better myself...

[Jason is immediately on top of Tyler, delivering forearm shots to Tyler, sending him to the ropes. As Tyler rebounds, he wraps his right arm around the ropes stopping his momentum. Jason runs at Tyler, but Tyler ducks and uses his right shoulder to toss Jason out of the ring. Jason is able to hang on the top rope and land on the apron, waiting for Tyler. Tyler starts to shake the pain out of his left shoulder, but when he turns, Jason springboards himself off of the top rope, spins, and nails Tyler with the X-DDT! Jason quickly goes for the pin. 1...2... KICKOUT!]

Richie Rhodes: Oh, so close. I’ll tell you what, if that wasn’t a three count, I don’t know what is...

Thomas Simon: Major resilience shown tonight by Tyler Axe.

[Jason looks up at the referee, who holds two fingers up indicating it was a two count. Jason gets up to his feet, and delivers a couple of kicks to a down Tyler Axe. Tyler slowly makes his way to his feet, Tyler stands with the help of the ropes, and Jason comes after him. Tyler is too quick, and able to deliver a huge chop to Jason’s chest with his right arm. Tyler grabs Jason’s head and prepares him for the Blade Runner, but Jason delivers a punch to Tyler’s midsection. Jason is able to free himself and runs to the ropes, but as he comes back, Tyler catches him with a Spinebuster! Tyler gets up to his feet, and stands in the corner. With his good arm, Tyler grabs the ropes and starts creating momentum for himself, moving back and forth. Slowly, Jason makes it to his feet. As he begins to turn, Tyler launches himself toward Jason, and nails him with the Feed The Kraken! Tyler falls to the mat, still clutching his shoulder, but rolls on top of Jason to make a weak pin attempt. 1...2... KICKOUT!]

Thomas Simon: Wow, Jason X had to dig deep to kick out of that!

Richie Rhodes: But look what that did to Tyler’s shoulder! I think he may have just did more damage to himself...

[Tyler slowly gets up to his feet, and with his good arm, lifts Jason up by the hair. Tyler whips Jason to the ropes. Jason comes back and is hit with a clothesline. Jason stands back up and is hit with another clothesline. Jason stands up again and is hit with yet another clothesline. Tyler is really starting to build some momentum now as he grabs Jason and and sets him up for a German suplex. However, somehow, Jason is able to get free and flips over Tyler during the suplex, and out of midair hits a falling neckbreaker! Jason quickly lifts up Tyler, and delivers a jumping armbreaker to Tyler’s left arm, causing Tyler to squirm in pain on the mat. Jason gets up and lifts his hands in the air, waiting for Tyler to stand. As he does, Jason tries to set Tyler up for a cross armbreaker, but Tyler counters with a quick roll up for the pin. 1...2... KICKOUT! Jason quickly makes it to his feet and kicks Tyler in the midsection. As Tyler bends in pain, Jason out of nowhere grabs Tyler, and nails him with a huge X-Driver!!! Jason, with a smile on his face, goes for a cocky pin, but the referee won’t make the count. He points, and both of Tyler’s feet are under the ropes. Jason rolls Tyler to the center of the ring, and looking at the referee, goes for another pin. 1...2... KICKOUT!!!]

Richie Rhodes: Jason X was robbed of a victory right there. There is no way Tyler would have kicked out of the X-Driver if the referee would have just counted the first pin...

Thomas Simon: Give it up, Tyler’s feet were clearly under the ropes. 

[Jason looks up at the referee, and starts to argue with him over what just happened. Tyler slowly starts to stir in the middle of the ring, but Jason is paying attention to the referee. Tyler makes way to his feet. Jason turns around only to be kicked in the gut, and nailed with the Blade Runner!!! Tyler goes for a one armed pin. 1...2... KICKOUT! Tyler pulls Jason over to a turnbuckle, and then starts climbing. As he gets to the top, Jason gets up to his feet and quickly springs to the top rope. Tyler throws right at Jason, but Jason hangs on to the top rope. After a few punches, Jason bounces off the top rope, and nails Tyler with a huge Super Frankensteiner! Jason makes it to his feet quickly, and sees that Tyler is in perfect position. Jason quickly climbs onto the top rope, and points down at Tyler. Jason leaps and nails Tyler with the Flying X Attack!. Without wasting any time, Jason goes for the pin. 1...2...3!!!]

Richie Rhodes: Jason X did it! 

Thomas Simon: Big win tonight for Jason X, but one has to wonder if the outcome would have been any different if Tyler didn’t hurt his shoulder earlier in the match.

Richie Rhodes: Can it Tommy. The better man is walking out with the win tonight...

[“X Gonna Give It To Ya” begins to blare through the arena as Jason X stands up and the referee holds up his hand in victory. As medical personnel come down to the ring to check the status of Tyler’s shoulder, he waves them off. Jason starts mocking a still down Tyler, point to his shoulder and laughing. Jason rolls out of the ring, holding his arms up high in victory. He takes a microphone as Tyler Axe lays in the ring]

Jason X: The questions I have been getting this week are all... why Jason why? Why did you attack an innocent female and send her to the hospital. Why didn't you stop after the three count. Why! Why? Because I had to prove a point and that I did. I proved that no matter who you are and no matter how much these sheep in the audience love you, Jason X will always be a step ahead and will always be that much better. Let it start with Chrissy Starr and it won't end until I say so.

[Jason Drops the microphone and the scene cuts]

Match 3

Honey Winters: This match is schudeuled for one fall and is a tag team match! 

"Reborn" by Damageplan is heard blasting throughout the arena. Shaun Cross wastes no time as he walks onto the stage, immediately starting down the ramp. Occasionally drifting to the sides of the ramp to high-five a few fans. 

Announcer: Weighing in at 215lbs from Portland, ME. The Samurai. Shaun Cross!!

He slides into the ring and quickly springs to his feet, rushing across and climbing the far turnbuckle. He raises his arms up above his head for a moment before hopping back down onto the canvas, turning around and leaning against the corner ready and waiting.

Introducing his partner from Singapore, Singapore weighing in tonight at 230 pounds TAAAAAUUULLLLFIIIIKKK

Awake and Alive by Skillet starts to play as Taufik hops his way towards the entrance ramp as he interacts with the fans by fisting their hands and even slapping their hands and when he slides to the ring, he throws his fist as the fans cheers him on as he awaits for his opponent.


[As the two are in the ring, Taulfik's music stops playing]

The lights in the MPW arena go black, except for a lone large dark blue spotlight on the stage. The openning chords of “Sweet Dreams” by Marilyn Manson starts to echo throughout the arena. As the music starts to crescendo after the intro, Samuel and Clay step out onto the stage. Samuel steps in front of Clay in the middle of the stage, and extends his arms to the sides, hands in fists.As Samuel does this, Clay raises his arms above his head and makes an “X” with them. As they do this, the ramp and the ring light up to a dark blue. Samuel and Clay then start to make their way down to the ring down the ramp. As they get to the ring, Samuel quickly slides in under the bottom rope, and Clay steps over the top rope. In the ring, Samuel and Clay do the same pose that they did on the stage moments earlier. The music slow starts to fade away as the house lights come back on. Samuel and Clay head to their corner and wait for the start of the match...

Introducing the opponents from Detroit, Michigan at a combined 520 pounds they are THHHHEEEE NNNIIIGGGHHHTTT TTEERRRORRRSSS 

Thomas Simon: Well both are standing in the ring readying for there match right now!

Richie Rhodes: Well what a match this is going to be! The Night Terrors have been on a role recently and Taulfik and Shaun are going to try and stop it tonight!

DING DING 

[The bell rings as Clay and Taulfik start the match, they circle one another before they lock up, as they do Clay uses his strength and pushes Taulfik onto his back. Taulfik rolls through and goes to lock up with Clay instantly, Clay though once again is able to push down Taulfik. Shaun Cross tries to rally behind Taulfik who is on his knees surprised at the strength of Clay. As Taulfik once again gets to his feet Clay looks on with a big smirk across his face as when the two go for the lock-up again Taulfik goes underneath the outstretched hands of Clay and locks in a waist lock, he then goes towards the ropes with Clay still locked in the hold, as they rebound Clay holds onto the ropes and Taulfik goes rolling backwards, as Clay runs towards Taulfik he is able to dropkick Clay low in the knee. Taulfik then runs off the nearby ropes and connects with a dropkcik straight to the head of Clay. As the big man goes down Taulfik makes the cover

1.....kickout]

Thomas Simon: We can see here Taulfik trying to use his speed to try and cut down the big man!

Richie Rhodes: The only problem is that it will take much more than a dropkick to put someone as big as Clay away

[Taulfik gets up quickly and places Clay in the corner of Shaun awaiting the tag on the apron, as he places Clay in the corner he tags in Shaun and he gets in the ring quickly, Taulfik lands a couple of rights to the face before grabbing Shaun and irsin whipping him into the big man, as Shaun connects with a running clothesline in the corner Taulfik follows up with a diving corner splash. Clay goes to all fours as the crowd cheer on the double team move of Cross and Taulfik. Shaun now rolls Clay over to his back and makes the cover

1...kickout 

Cross gets Clay to his knees and connects with a pair of kicks straight to the chest, the sound rings around the arena as Shaun then goes off the ropes on the opposite side of the ring as he does this Samuel who is in the corner walks out to the middle of the apron and lands a kick to the back of Shaun as he goes to rebound off the ropes, Shaun turns around in a fit of rage and attempts to swing at Samuel but he is able to jump down from the apron avoiding the swing, as Shaun turns around he is met by an oncoming Clay who lands a big boot on the distracted Shaun Cross, the crowd react in tandem with the blow in a state of shock at the impact of the blow]

Richie Rhodes: WOW What a move by Clay! This just highlights how a great team work together, they are able to work in such a way that they can win a match in so much style!

Thomas Simon: Really Richie? These guys are pulling off dirty tactics to gain the advantage in this match!

Richie Rhodes: Well sometimes you just have to pull a couple of tricks out of the magic hat to win some!

[Clay drags Shaun to the Night Terrors corner and tags in Samuel. As Clay holds him up Samuel parades around the ring for a second before landing a kick to the midsection of Cross, Shaun falls to the mat as Samuel doesn't let off the attack he picks him up almost instantaneously and uppercuts him forcing Shaun to the corner. There Samuel lands some hard right hands which force Shaun down to a seated position in the corner, there he puts his boot to the throat of Shaun and chokes him out, the referee counts to 4 before Samuel is forced to release the hold. He then orders to Clay for the tag and they switch positions now, as Clay enters the ring he stomps on the downed body a couple of times before bringing Shaun up from the seated position, as he is standing Clay brings him into a body slam position and places him firmly to the mat with the slam, he then tags in Samuel again and after entering the ring he goes to the second rope where he lands an elbow drop across the heart of Shaun. Samuel then covers

1.......2.......kickout

Thomas Simon: Wow the Night Terrors are just picking apart Shaun Cross here! They are doing a great job of cutting the ring in half and not allowing any space between Shaun and his partner Taulfik in the corner 

Richie Rhodes: And he looks pretty eager to get in there, to bad even if he was able to get the tag in he would be no match for the combined forces of the Night Terrors!

[Samuel now places Shaun on the ropes and irish whips him, as Shaun goes off the ropes he is able to duck under the incoming clothesline of Samuel, as Cross bounces off the opposite ropes he is met once again by Samuel who lands a heel kick right to the jaw as Shaun's head snaps back and lands neck first on the mat. Samuel smirks at his work as he once again drags Shaun to the corner of the Night Terrors and tags in Clay. Samuel now drags Shaun to the middle of the ring where he throws Shaun to Clay who brings Cross into a sidewalk slam position, Samuel then bounces off the ropes and instead of going after Shaun surprises Taulfik and dropkicks him in the face forcing him off the apron, as he does this he goes after Shaun but as he goes for him Shaun is able to wriggle out of the hold and drag Clay into the firing line of the kick, as Clay groggily stays on his feet Samuel is surprised by a enziguri by Cross. As Samuel hits the deck Cross connects with a kick to the side of Clay's head. With both down he goes to tag in Taulfik but he is still down from the attack by Samuel]

Thomas Simon: Shaun goes for the tag!!! 

Richie Rhodes; Wait though Taulfik isn't in the corner! Oh god Clay is back up, when Shaun turns around he is going to be met with a world of pain!

[Shaun turns around and runs at Clay but the big man catches Shaun in the sidewalk slam position again, Samuel is up as well and runs off the ropes and connects with a dropkick to the side of Cross' head, with Shaun still in the side slam position Clay drops him with a sidewalk slam. He makes the cover]

Thomas Simon: What a double team manuver by the Night Terrors! The cover by Clay and this could be it!

[Cover 1..........2........kickout by Shaun 

The Night Terrors look frustrated as Samuel goes back to the corner and orders Clay to tag him in, Clay picks up Shaun and places him in the corner before tagging in Samuel. As Samuel goes into the ring he punches Cross in the head and then grabs him by his long hair and begins to talk smack to him. He pushes the face of Shaun back before going for another right, as he goes for another right Shaun is able to get his hand up and then reply with a right of his own, as he does this he back elbows Clay in the corner before landing a double boot to the face of Samuel while using the ropes for support, then from behind Clay tries to grab him but Shaun pushes away the hand and lands a superkick to the face of Clay, he falls to the outside as Cross now lunges to try and reach Taulfik who is waiting eagerly in the corner]

Thomas Simon: Cross has fought back, he is crawling towards Taulfik and these fans are now really getting behind the duo, AND CROSS MAKES THE TAG TAULFIK IS IN THE RING 

[The crowd go crazy as Taulfik enters the ring and clotheslines Samuel, as he gets up again he is met with another clothesline, Taulfik now goes for the irish whip but Samuel reverses, Taulfik goes rebounding off the ropes and connects with a diving clothesline, as he awaits Samuel once again Clay is behind him and clubs him in the back. He then turns Taulfik around and puts him into a bodyslam position but Taulfik slides down the back of Clay and rams him into Samuel as the two colide Samuel his the deck and Clay is still on his feet but groggy. Taulfik turns him around and connects with Surprise!!!

Thomas Simon: Superkick but as Taulfik likes to call it "The Suprise" and this could be it, cover here!

1.........2........Samuel is able to break up the count!

[As Taulfik and Clay are down Samuel gets up but he turns around to find a recovered Shaun Cross on the top rope and connects with a diving famasser like leg drop to the back of Samuel's head. He hits the mat as Shaun gets up and looks pumped, Clay gets to his feet and Shaun lifts Clay above his head looking for the Nail in the Cross. As he does Clay is able to elbow Shaun in the side of the head forcing Shaun to let go of the hold, as he gets to his feet he turns Shaun around and connects with a T-Bone Suplex. Shaun hits the mat as Clay gets up though Taulfik has gotten to his feet and stomps Clay in the gut before landing a DDT. 

Thomas Simon: This is crazy! Everyone is hitting everything on everybody!

[Taulfik now observes the ring before bringing Samuel to a vertical base, he turns him around and goes for the "May Allah Be With You" Half Nelson Choke but Samuel is able to put all of his weight to his base which forces Taulfik to roll through, as he gets up Samuel runs at him but is met with Taulfik who is near the ropes dropping the top rope forcing Samuel to the outside. As Taulfik stands next to the ropes he signals to Shaun on the other side of the ring who is now on two feet. He runs off the ropes and dives to the outside with a diving somersault. The crowd react with cheers at the move. Taulfik turns around now and doesn't realise Clay is back to a vertical base , taulfik turns around and is met with a clobbering boot right to his face, Taulfik isn't downed but is on his knees confused to where he is]

Richie Rhodes: Look at this now! Taulfik ordered for the dive of Shaun Cross and now he has turned around to Clay who landed another of of those big boots, damn that moves lands a punch!

Thomas Simon: Not only that but now Clay has Taulfik in the powerbomb position and lands the Fall From Grace!!! Cover by Clay on Taulfik....lateral press

1..............2..............3.....THE NIGHT TERRORS CONTINUE ON THEIR HUGE ROLL!!!

Thomas Simon: On no, what’s going on now?

Richie Rhodes: It looks like The Night Terrors aren’t done...

[Clay and Samuel surround Taufik,smiling sadistically. Taufik, knowing what is about to happen, throws a right at Samuel, which connect. But from behind, Clay hits him with a huge forearm to the back of the head, which sends Taufik to the mat. Clay starts delivering boots to a down Taufik, who covers his head. Shaun Cross tries to get back in the ring, but as he jumps onto the apron, he is met by a dropkick from Samuel. Cross flies off of the apron and into the barrier on the outside of the ring. Back in the ring, Samuel climbs the top turnbuckle, and points to Taufix. Clay grabs Taufik and pulls him over to the same corner. Samuel kicks Taufik, sets him up, and lifts him for a powerbomb. Samuel leaps at the same time, and The Night Terrors nail Taufik with the P.T.S.D.!]

Thomas Simon: Taufik is broken if half!!!

[As Clay stands over a motionless Taufik, Samuel goes over and yells at one of the ring crew for a microphone. The ring crew member brings Samuel a mic. Samuel comes back to the middle of the ring, and begins his message to the MPW arena...]

Samuel: For all of those who doubted us, tonight is further proof of just how far superior we are to each and every single tag team here in the MPW. First Real Steele, and now, we destroy your “Savior” and “The Samuari”. There is no team in the world greater than The Night Terrors. Soon enough, we will take the MPW Tag Team Championships away from Trey Baxter and Jackson Blaze. Soon enough, every single one of you will know the power the darkness and fear as given us. A new power has arrived, you’ve been warned...

[All of a sudden, the lights in the arena all go black. The fans fill the arena with flashing cameras, but even that light isn’t enough to see what’s going on. After about five seconds, the lights all turn back on, and both Samuel and Clay are gone, no sign of having been in the ring other than the still motionless Taufik and a stirring Shaun Cross outside of the ring...]

Richie Rhodes: Where’d they go?!

Thomas Simon: I have no idea Rhodes. But I do know that for the first time, our World Champion Trey Baxter and our Sin City Jackson Blaze may have some worthy challengers for the MPW Tag Team Championships...

[Backstage Jason X is walking with a towel around his neck when suddenly he gets pushed in to the wall. Johnny Clash is in front of him holding him up with his forearm against the wall]

Johnny Clash: Jason my friend we meet again.

Jason X: Get the fuck off of me!

Johnny Clash: Not until you hear what I have to say. You hurt a friend of mine and we have spent a lot of time together buddy. I know you you know me and you know I won't let this go until I make it right. Fortunately for you I have other things to take care of and other people to worry about. Let this be your warning, you don't touch one of my friends again. Next time you will be the one in the hospital bed. Got it.

Jason X: Go to hell...

Johnny Clash: I'll pretend you said you got it

[Johnny lets go as Jason scowls as Johnny walks away]

[The outside of a burning building is seen as a woman in a blanket and a man next to her are seen sobbing on the sidewalk watching their house burn down. Sirens of firetrucks and police officers surround the place as the couples hopes and dreams all perish]

Diablos: How shall the burial rite be read? The solemn song be sung ? The requiem for the loveliest dead, That ever died so young?

[Diablos is seen perched on the roof of the burning building as pieces of the roof cave in next to him, though he doesnt flinch]

Diablos: Therefore, to thee this night I will no requiem raise, But waft thee on thy flight, With a Pæan of old days. 

[Diablos has smoke filling the area around him and is still unphased]

Diablos: Hell's gates have been open. There is room for one demon to roam this earth. I will lay down a battle, a challenge. He who names himself Crow.. A Gold Rush is upon us. Consider thyself vanquished. You have one week to answer before hells fury rains down on all of us

[Diablos dissolves in the smoke as the fire hose sprays down the roof where he was just standing]

Match 4
Clockwork Orange House of Fun Match

[The ring is set with half of a cage and weapons galore. Barbed wire hangs in the middle with more weapons attached]

["Light up the Sky" by Thousand Foot Krunch plays and Chris Cable to the boos of the fans makes his way to the stage doing a 360 degree turn following to strike the air with his elbow. Cable reaches the ring and stands in the middle doing the same 360 turn followed by showing his elbow, this time through red fireworks fly off in the corners.]

Honey Winters: First to enter the match, from Melbourne Australia, Chris Cable!

[Perfect Life by Red hits as the fans cheer knowing that the one and only Johnny Clash is about to make his entrance. Johnny slowly walks to the stage and loosens up his shoulders. He cracks his neck and smiles at the fans. He begins walking and spins around facing backwards as a pyro explodes and gold sparks rain down . Johnny walks through the sparks and hops up on to the Apron. He leaps over the top and heads to the top rope. He looks out to the fans and and smirks at them. He jumps down and awaits the bell]

Honey Winters: The following contest is a Clockwork Orange House of Fun Match! Falls count anywhere!

Clash runs at Chris as he reaches up and grabs a kendo stick off the cable. He pulls it down and swings at Clash in one motion. Clash stumbles back. Chris swings away at Clash and nails him in the back until Clash gets down on to his knees. Chris runs behind him against the ropes and dropkicks Clash. Clash falls out of the ring]

Thomas Simon: Chris off to a fast start here

Richie Rhodes: He is pissed off about last week

Thomas Simon: He sure is!

[Chris snaps the kendo stick in half and tosses it down to the mat. He reaches up and takes a steel chair down from the cables. He rolls out of the ring with it and goes to swing at Clash. Clash punches him in the stomach causing him to drop the chair and lean forward. Clash stands up and grabs Chriss head. He throws him in to the guard rail as Chris holds his back and leans against it. Clash thrusts his shoulder in to the stomach of Chris and than sits him up on top of the barricade. Clash punches him and than lifts him up in muscle buster position. Clash walks around the outside of the ring near the chair and goes to hit it. Chris wiggles out and flips on to his feet behind Clash. He pushes Clash in to the steel turnbuckle post and Clash falls down to the mat.

Thomas SImon: oh my god!

Richie Rhodes: That has to hurt! My god!

Thomas Simon: Clash is broken in half!

Thomas Simon: Oh my god these men are both broken in half!

[Cable and Clash both lay there motionless as the referee raises Cable's hand]

Richie Rhodes: what carnage. What a match, but Chris Cable gets the victory

[Scene opens with Taufik already talking with Emi who is dressed in street clothes when Camilla, Taufik's long time friend comes up behind Taufik. She smiles before he moves and she sees Emi.  She immediately rushes forward to envelope the woman in a hug which is eagerly returned]

Emi: Hi Camilla

[Camilla smiles and turns to grab Taufiks arm and squeeze it. Taufik looks at her with an almost disapproving look on his face]

Taufik: What are you doing here? I have never felt good since what's happened in the past with you being within easy access of anybody with a problem with me

[Camilla offers a pout]

Camilla: I just came to offer my support Taufik and to offer the blessing of Allah on your match tonight

Emi: Who's Allah?

[Taufik smiles sincerely at his friend]

Taufik: Perhaps Camilla can fill you in some more...you may just find our beliefs of interest. 

[He smiles again, giving Camilla a one armed squeeze before nodding at the women]

Taufik: I must pray before the match so I will talk to you ladies later. Remember our training tomorrow Emi.

[Taufik walks away and Camilla watches him.  She turns back to Emi who looks wide eyed and curious. A delivery guy passes by him and comes towards the girls]

Delivery guy: Sorry but is either of you ladies Emi Yamamoto?

Emi: That's me!!

Delivery guy: I have this box for you from Candyland

[Emi gets overly excited and starts jumping]

Emi: I knew they didn't forget about me

[Camilla looks confused and looks at the box in the man's hands and then shakes her head]

Camilla: No its a candy store Emi.

[Emi's excited state doesn't cease. Camilla takes the box and thanks the man.  She then hands Emi the box. Emi immediately opens the box of chocolates and starts to chow down. A white cardboard card flies to the ground.  Camilla picks it up and reads it.  Her expression changes and she pulls the box away from a now irritated Emi]

Emi: lesson for you never take away candy from a girl with a sweet tooth

Camilla: no Emi you might want to read this

[Emi takes the card and reads it outloud]

Emi: Soon you will see what a cockroach you are...much like the ones you're eating

[ Emi looks at the box and now notices she's been sent a box of chocolate covered cockroaches.  She puts a hand to her mouth gagging violently until she finds a garbage bin and empties her stomach.  Camilla drops the box in the bin before holding Emi's hair back]

Emi: Who is doing these horrible things to me?!?

Camilla: Don't worry. ..I'm sure taufik will find out and take care of them

[Scene fades out as camilla is comforting a distraught Emi]

Match 5
Nytrus wins: Receives World Title Match at Gold Rush
Trey Baxter wins: Picks opponent for Gold Rush

["King Of The Stereo" by Saliva plays from the microphone as a lone spotlight appears on the stage while the rest of the arena dies out. Brandon Nytrus walks out into the light with his eyes set on the ring.]

Honey Winters: From South Boston, Massachusetts... Weighing in at 302 lbs... Brrrrandon... Nytruss!!

[He continues down the ramp and down into the ring. He stands on the turnbuckle and looks out into the crowd. The spotlight stays on him the entire time. He hops down and waits for the bell.]

["Guerilla Radio" by Rage Against the Machine hits over the PA System as the lights begin to flicker and smoke begins to fill up the ramp. The reaction from the crowd is a mixture of boo's and cheers as after a few moments Trey Baxter steps out onto the top of the ramp. He is wearing his wrestling attire plus his usual black hoodie, this one that says "The Bad Guy" on it. He has his MPW Tag Team Title wrapped around his waist as he pauses at the top of the ramp.]

Honey Winters: "Coming to the ring we have one of the founding members of Iconic Aggression. He is fighting out of Chicago, IL. and weighs in at 220 pounds. He is one half of the MPW Tag Team Champions and your MPW Heavyweight Champion....he is TREYYYY BAXTERRRR!!!

[After a few moments Trey begins to walk down the ramp with a huge smile on his face. He slowly walks down the ramp and climbs into the ring where he walks to the middle of the ring and simply raises his title high up in the air. After a few moments he pulls it down and goes to his corner where he begins to get ready for the match.]

Thomas Simon: A long time rivalry comes to a head here on TNT. One of the MPW Tag Team Champions and the World’s Heavyweight Champion, Trey Baxter goes head to head with “The Hardcore Icon” Brandon Nytrus.

Richie Rhodes: Trey has said some pretty harsh but deserving stuff to The Icon this past week.

Thomas Simon: Deserving? Like what?

[The bell tolls and the two men circle each other. They tie up and Trey moves into side headlock position.]

Richie Rhodes: Saying that he isn’t the true Icon. Trey, Jackson and Lucas are. No one else deserves to call themselves Icons but Iconic Aggression. It’s in their name for Pete’s sake!

[Trey keeps the hold on with a tight grip. Brandon uses his height and strength to pick himself up. He then picks Trey up and slams him on the mat with a front slam. Trey rolls out of the ring immediately, holding his back. Brandon shakes off the pain left over from that hold. He looks to the outside and waits for Baxter to come back in. The referee tries to talk to Trey but he doesn’t listen and he slides in to the ring. They lock up again. Brandon pushes it back into the corner. Trey is backed up against the turnbuckle. The ref pulls them away. Brandon then begins to hit Trey in the face with straight rights and lefts. He hits Trey pretty hard, which leaves him a bit groggy. He backs up into the opposite corner and pounds on his chest. He runs to the ropes and aims for a big boot. Trey ducks out of the way, causing Brandon to over extend his hip. He goes down to the mat holding his side. Trey takes advantage and begins to stomp on that side. Brandon screams out in pain. Baxter covers.]

1… Kick out!

[Baxter turns over and mounts Nytrus. He begins to punch him in the face a couple of times. He begins to scream into his face.]

Trey: WHO’S THE ICON NOW!? HUH!?

[Brandon rolls him over and grabs Trey into powerbomb position. He picks him up on his shoulders and slams him down hard with a powerbomb. But he’s not done. He connects with a second and a third powerbomb, all without dropping Baxter. He stands up and is pumped up. While the crowd is popping, he screams back.]

Brandon: STILL ME.

[He gives a smile to the audience while Trey is trying to recover. Nytrus walks over and picks Baxter up in front facelock position. He lifts him up and holds him up in a vertical suplex. He waits… Waits… And throws him down hard. He pins.]

1…2… Kick out!

Thomas Simon: Wow! This is a battle of the Icons here, Richie!

Richie Rhodes: This is more of a kid who thinks he’s better than anyone going up against the best man to ever grace the canvas.

[Trey begins to stand. Brandon waits and charges. He goes for a clothesline but Baxter ducks so he misses. He turns around only to be hit by a flying heel kick. Nytrus goes down hard.]

Richie Rhodes: Wow!! Haha, Brandon looks like he got shot down by a sniper!!

[Both men are down. Baxter crawls over to the ropes and uses them to stand up. He looks back at Nytrus and he begins to climb to the top turnbuckle. He sits there for a second and stands up on the top rope. He puts his arms out wide. The crowd boos him and he leaps and lands right ontop of Nytrus with a diving crossbody. He pins.]

1…2… Kick out!!

[Trey is starting to get frustrated. He turns over and looks around. He stands up and grabs Brandon’s legs. He looks out to the crowd with a devilish smirk on his face. He wraps a leg around his and locks in the Figure Four Leg Lock. Brandon yells out.]

Thomas Simon: Got him locked in here!! Can Trey make Brandon tap!?

Richie Rhodes: Come on baby, you got this Trey!!!

[Brandon tries to turn Trey over but the injured hip is preventing him to get any torch and strength into it. He lays there screaming and slamming the mat. He desperately crawls towards the ropes and finally grabs them. Trey releases at a count of 4. Trey, frustrated as ever walks over to Nytrus and picks him up. He starts yelling in his face. No one can really make out what he’s saying. Then, he slaps Nytrus in the face. Nytrus suddenly becomes very, very angry. Trey turns around after the slap and laughs. He turns around and Nytrus is there with a clothesline. Trey stands up and another clothesline. The second time Trey stands up he’s met with a Samoan Drop. Then Nytrus turns him over and locks on the Tap.0.]

Thomas Simon: Oh wow!! All of that aggression and here’s the Tap.0!! No more fun and games for the Icon!!

[Trey screams loudly. He can’t move. After only a couple seconds he begins to squirm forward. He gets so close to the ropes that he tries to reach it with his mouth. He has to squirm a little more. But Nytrus releases and then tries to pull him back. But when he does, Trey avoids the hold and rolls out of the ring to in front of the announcer’s table. Brandon looks at the ref and rolls out of the ring himself. He picks Trey up and puts him up against the announcer’s table. He clobbers Trey in the face. He walks around the table to Richie Rhode’s side and bends down to talk into his mic.]

Brandon: You don’t mind if I use you as a weapon do ya, Rich?

Richie Rhodes: What the hell? Of course, I do!

Brandon: Thanks.

[Brandon takes Trey to the apron and then throws him over the table and into Richie Rhodes. Nytrus smiles to the crowd who are popping. Brandon rolls in the ring and then rolls out to stop the count for the moment. He walks over to Trey and picks him up. He rolls him in the ring. Then, he walks over to where Richie is and picks him up. He sits him down in his chair and straightens out his tie and puts the headset on him. The crowd laughs as he takes a sip of Richie’s water and then throws the rest at him to try and wake him up.]

Thomas Simon: Haha!!! Richie just got a wake up call!! Brandon Nytrus causing all kinds of havoc here at ringside!! What a match!!

[Brandon rolls in the ring. He stands and turns and is hit by a waiting Trey Baxter with a Superkick. Brandon goes down and is pinned.]

1…2… Kick out!

[Trey slams the mat with frustration again and stands up. He looks at Brandon and then the crowd that’s cheering his name. He laughs and then puts his hands up, signaling the Lights Out. He picks Nytrus up who suddenly picks Trey up on his shoulders looking for the Endure but Trey slides out of it. He goes for the Lights Out again with a boot to the gut but Nytrus grabs it and spins him out of it. They both go for clotheslines and connect. The crowd cheers loudly as the two men are on the ground and the referee begins the count.]

Thomas Simon: What a sequence there by these two Icons!! Both men are now down and out!! Listen to this St. Paul crowd!! They’re going crazy here!!

[Both men begin to move at the count of 5. Nytrus is the first one to his feet followed y Trey only a couple moments later. They walk to the center of the ring and Brandon lifts Trey on his shoulders and connects with the Endure. He covers.]

1…2… TH… Kick out!!!

[The crowd is going crazy at this point. Brandon slides off of Trey in what seemed to be the last bit of energy he had left. Trey hasn’t moved since the kick out.]

Thomas Simon: Oh my god!! What a match!! C’mon Richie, wake up!! You’re missing a classic in the making here!!

[Brandon gets on his hands and knees. He stumbles, but he stands up nonetheless. He walks over to the turnbuckle and gets on the third rope. He stands up and looks down at Trey. He looks up to the ceiling like he’s looking up to God, and then he leaps looking for a Diving Headbutt. Trey rolls over and Brandon goes head first into the canvas. The crowd pops.]

Richie Rhodes: Ugh… Ow… What’s going on…

Thomas Simon: OH MY GAWD!! Trey Baxter just led Brandon Nytrus right into the floor!!! Oh my god!!!

Richie Rhodes: Who’s Trey Snackers?

[Trey tries to roll Brandon over with little to no energy left. He finally does it and pins him.]

1…2… THR… Kick out!!!!!

[The crowd pops.]

Thomas Simon: WHAT!? Brandon Nytrus was down and out and looked to be KNOCKED out and he kicked out at 2 and what seemed to like 99/100ths!! Jesus!!

[Trey sits up. He stands up slowly and groggily. He waits for Nytrus who is slowly moving. After a couple of moments, Brandon stands up. Trey kicks him in the gut and connects with the Lights Out. He pins.]

1…2… THR… Kick out!!!

Thomas Simon: OH MY GAWD!!! THIS KID WILL NOT QUIT!!!

Trey stands up again and this time he is really angry. He picks Nytrus up and sets him up for another Lights Out. But he thinks for a second and gets a smile on his face. He lets Brandon go and then picks him up on his shoulders. He connects with an Endure and pins.]

1…2…3!!!

DING DING DING

Honey Winters: Here is your winner… TRRREY… BAXTERRRRR!!!!!!

[Guerrilla Radio plays from the speakers and Trey falls to the mat. The referee helps him up but Lucas King comes down from the ramp and pushes the referee and helps Trey up.]

Thomas Simon: What a match… Wow!! This may have been one of the hardest fought matches from Brandon Nytrus I have ever seen.

Richie Rhodes: Did Trey win…

Thomas Simon: Yes, he did, Richie.

Richie Rhodes: Damn right…

[Trey lifts his arms up in the air and leaves the ring with Lucas. The referee checks on Nytrus who sits up. He looks hurt but he wills on to stand up. The crowd cheers for him as he leaves the ring and up through the curtain on his own.]

Thomas Simon: What fireworks here at the ending of this edition of TNT falling on the 4th of July!! Thank you all for joining us… The road to Goldrush continues on next week from Bismark, South Dakota!! We’ll see you then!!

[The scene suddenly cuts to the backstage where Jay Wyatt is standing nervously in front of the TNT logo]

Jay Wyatt: What a night is has been Ladies and Gentlemen. And I have a special treat. This is White Mask, a superstar shrouded in mystery. White Mask, what can you tell me about yourself, or your plans here in MPW?

[ White Mask says nothing, standing there stoically. ]

Jay Wyatt: Sir, I…need a little more than that. I mean, what did you think of the match between Brandon Nytrus and Trey Baxter?

[ Again, White Mask says nothing, staring at the camera. ]

Jay Wyatt: I…I guess White Mask isn’t in the mood to-

[ Jay is cut off by being tapped on the shoulder. Behind him as he turns is…White Mask? ]

White Mask: Mr. Wyatt, I think you may have confused me with someone else. 

[ Jay spins around, still looking at the White Mask in front of him too. ]

White Mask: I can see how it gets confusing. This is merely a dummy. Just a trick. See?

[ White Mask walks over to the other White Mask and knocks on the mask, again getting no response. ]

White Mask: It was good though, wasn’t it? So, did you have a question for me?

Jay Wyatt: I guess…What did you think of the main event tonight?

White Mask: Such a great, physical battle, I enjoyed it. This is what I came here for.

Jay Wyatt: Do you have any plans?

White Mask: Oh, my plans? I have big plans. Goldrush is fast approaching, and there’s much to do. Trey Baxter is in my plans, Brandon Nytrus too. And Johnny Clash, and Lucas King, and The Night Terrors, everyone will be involved in the grand scheme. It will be great.

Jay Wyatt: Well, I guess thanks for you time?

White Mask: Anytime, my good sir.

[ With that, White Mask walks away. Jay looks back at the White Mask dummy still standing in front of him, when suddenly, it moves! ]

Jay Wyatt: What the -

White Mask #2: I’m sorry Jay, did you have a question?

Jay Wyatt: I…but…how…did you…

White Mask #2: Well then, I suppose the interview is over, but I’d like to leave you with this message: This is going to be the biggest trick ever. Now, I’ve already given you the first clue to my identity, and this is the second. I believe I’ll call it….”Us.” Good night MPW.

[ Then the second White Mask walks off camera. ]

Jay Wyatt: What the heck is going on? You guys saw that right? There are two of them?

[Jay is in panic as the camera cuts to the MPW logo]
