Bill Barnhart is seen walking through the hallway of the arena, on his way to his office. Reaching the door, he smiles at the personalized nameplate that is glued to the glass. A light is seen on inside the room, and a figure is seen sitting in Bill's desk chair. Surprised to see someone in his room, Bill pulls out the keys for the door, and tries to open it, but he realizes the door has been broken into.Getting more and more frustrated, Bill whips open the door to see Tommy Gunn sitting in the chair, with his legs propped up on Bill's desk.

Bill: "Dammit, Tommy. Didn't you get enough of me last week? You better just be thankful Iris isn't here, or I'd be the least of your problems. Now, you have two options: leave on your own, or I'll toss you out the door..."

Tommy sits at the desk, quietly staring at Bill, further aggravating him. Bill lets out a small laugh...

Bill: "Ah, it appears you choose my favorite: option two."

Bill walks around the desk and lands a stiff right hook to the jaw of Tommy, buy he doesn't move. Bill repeats the move and get the same response. Bill stops and notices that what he thought was Tommy was actually a mannequin. He grabs the dummy and heads to the door when the lights in his office go out...

Bill: "What the hell...?"

The sounds of scuffling can be heard from inside the office. The thick "smack" of the mannequin hitting the floor can be heard just before the sound of Bill's desk breaking, echoing through the room and a small section of the hallway. Just a few seconds later, Bill's head comes crashing through the glass of his door, causing it to shatter into hundreds of pieces on the floor. His name plate falls to the ground as Bill is pulled back inside the office. The door opens and the AWA Universal Champion, Rex Butler, walks out laughing to a tremendous roar of boos from the crowd watching at ringside. He walks out of view as the cameraman shows the damage inside the office before the scene fades as we go to a commercial break

The show comes back after the commercial break when suddenly Marilyn Manson's The Golden Age of Grotesque hits and the owner of the company walks out to the ring with a pissed off look on his face

Tex Martin: Well we all know what is going on in Goth's mind when he has this look on his face!! And it doesnt look like a good thing for the Inmates tonight!!

Goth gets in the ring and demands the microphone from Stormy Canyon before he signals for his music to be cutt off.

Goth: It seems like the primates of the AWA want to run the show huh? It seems like there is some jackass in the back, who because he is holding one of my championship belts over his shoulder. That thinks he can just make everything happen for him, even thinking he can attack Bill Barnhart. Well let me remind you Rex my friend, back in the GWA you were someone that was playing second fiddle to your stable friends in Zero Tolerance. And now? Now you will have to learn that being in the AWA, you are playing second fiddle to ME!!!

The fans react mixed to the statement of the owner of the company, clearly lot of fans dont like the newly formed stable and get on the support of the men of Goth. Goth clearly isn't faced by it and continues his rant

So enjoy your little championship reign Rex, just want to make one thing clear little man. You can put whomever in front of you as your little gang, but in the end me and my men will always get what we want. And Rex? I want you and your little gang of yours to be put to silent.. And what a better night to begin it with by silencing each and every one of your gang tonight...

Duff Travers: And it can happen tonight!!

Goth grins as he is about to say something, but he is interrupted when we suddenly hear I stand alone from Godsmack hit over the sound system

As "I Stand Alone" By Godsmack hits the PA, John Irons comes out from the back and has a mic in hand. Goth's face seems even a bit more pissed, though Irons seems to be enjoying this. He brings the mic up to his lips and begins to speak.

Irons: Goth, when are you going to shut that big trap of yours, and realize that no one listens to you anymore or cares?

Goth begins to speak, but Irons interrupts him

Irons: Nah, nah, nah. I ain't done yet Gothic Boy. You see, Zero Tolerance was the best damn thing to happen to the GWA, because they reigned supreme against all odds. You know it, I know it, hell even that retard of an ex president George W. Bush knows it. Fact of the matter is, that you and your men are nothing more than a bunch of nobodies banning together to force total dominance and or ideas in this company. History has shown thios type of behavior before, and you wanna know what it is, Goth? Nazi's. You and your band of merry men are nothing more than a bunch of ass grabbing Nazi's. But then again, you knew that, didn't you? When will you learn that nobody cares and laughs at you because of how pathetic you've become? Goth begins to speak, and appears to be very pissed off.

Goth: You want to talk a tough game Irons? Is that it? You want to experience another ass kicking that only I can deliver? Why don't you put your money where your mouth is and put it all on the line against me.

Irons looks amazed at the brash reaction from Goth, but before he can respond he is cut off by the owner of the company

Goth: Shut up Irons, you piece of shit. Now you want to hog the limelight of Zero Tolerance? You want to be the big idiot that walks out to the ring once more and do your thing? You want to act like you own the whole company huh Irons? Where were you in the recent weeks besides petting your monkey in the mensroom?

Tex Martin: Did he just say what I thought he said?

Goth: If you want to be the man around here Irons, then get your ass in the ring at Asylum Gates. And I'll be showing the world who runs this shit hole and who is making the money and who is thumbing up his ass and does nothing around here. In other words Irons, I'm calling you out to put it all on the line. Because I will and you know why big man? Irons gets closer to Goth as we can see him say bring it on

Goth: Because I'm the man around here and I never freaking lose.... And at Asylum Gates, you will find out why exactly I intend to bring your ass back to where it belongs... Bitch!!

The crowd erupt in amazement as Goth stares at Irons with intensity in his eyes

Both men stare at each other for what seems like an eternity, then all of a sudden the lights go out and some shuffling and sounds are coming from the ring.

Duff: Who turned out the lights!?

After a moment, the lights come back on, and Goth can be seen laying flat on his back in the middle of the ring, while John Irons can be seen smirking, holding a steel chair in his hands. He tosses it onto Goth as his music hits. Irons makes his way out of the ring and begins heading up the ramp way when he is met by Bulldog Bill Barnhart, Jason Stevens, Erik Black, and Chaos. After a moment, Jason Stevens breaks the ice and runs towards Irons. John easily picks up the smaller man and hits an Alabama Slam on the rampway. Chaos and Black come after John, Black reaching him first. Black tries for a Fijuwara Armbar, But Irons is too strong and elbows Black in the face, sending him flying back. Chaos charges in and hits a spear on the big man, knocking him down. Bulldog Bill begins a calm walk towrds Irons, taking little notice at the downed Jason Stevens. Bill begins to stomp on Irons, and Black gets back up and joins in. The camera switches to the ring where Goth is starting to come to, and sees the beatdown of John Irons. He picks up a mic, and yells to his stable mates...

Goth: Yeah!! Make this idiot realize what others have realized before him!! That I'm not a man that likes to be played with and I hope you watch closely Rex Butler, because your ass is next!!!

Goth drops the microphone and joins his men as they all work on Irons before medics and other staff members and security run in to break it all up. Irons can be seen with a busted open face, while staring at Goth and his men as Goth smiles and raises the arms in the air of his men as the show goes to a break


Dmitri vs. Loki

dmitri vs loki The scene switches back to the ring where Stormy Canyon is almost ready to announce the next match.

Tex: Our next match here is between two men that have been at it all week, and should be an interesting one to watch.

Duff: I'd like to go at it with Stacy, but she's not....

Tex: You do realize that you're an idiot right?

Duff: Huh?

Tex: Anyways, our next match is coming right up, and Stormy can take it awa...

"I Stand Alone" By Godsmack hits the PA as John Irons can be seen walking down the rampway. He bypasses the ring and heads directly for the commentor's table. He picks up a spare headset and sits down in a chair that seems a bit too small for the large man.

Tex: My, what an Honor it is to see you, Mister Irons!

Duff: Suck up.

Irons: You better watch it, Duff. I pay your paychecks.

Duff: Oh...uh....Take it away Stormy!

The camera switches to Stormy Canyon who is ready to announce the next match.

Stormy: The following match is scheduled for one fall, making his way to the ring first from Moscow, weighing in at two hundred and seventy five pounds. DMMMMIIIIIIIIIITTTTRRRRIIIII!

Vampiria's Legacy in Blood hits as the arena goes black and the Titan Tron slowly starts to drip blood until the name of Dmitri appears. Dmitri slowly walks out to the ring with his manager walks in front of him. He does not concern himself for the people that are either exchanging their hands to touch him or to throw their drinks at him. As the two enter the ring his manager opens the ropes for him and allows Dmitri to get in and stare at the commentator table.

Tex: So what brings you down here tonight, John?

Irons: Let's just say that I have a keen interest in this match.

Duff: Well I have a keen interest in that Stormy! Boy is she something else!

Irons: Keep it to a PG rating please, Duff.

Duff: Sorry Sir.

Stormy: And his opponent, from Nifelheim, Hel. Weighing in at two hundred and thirty one pounds. Lllllllooooookiiiiiiii von Nifelheim!

Tex: Oh boy, here comes the Raven! LOOK OUT!

Iron Maiden's "Can I Play with Madness" starts playing and the crowd begins to boo as a raven enters the arena and circles it twice before landing on the top turnbuckle of the ring. The lights suddenly go dark and after a few tense seconds there is a bright flash and there is Loki the Deceiver perched on the top turnbuckle where the raven had been and uses the moment of suprise and attacks Dmitri from behind. Dmitri falls face first to the mat, and Loki gets up to take a few stomps into the back of Dmitri. Referee Chip Long begins a ten count as some members in the crowd join in. After six, Loki stops and glares at the referee taking his attention away from Dmitri. Dmitri uses the moment to regain himself and sits up, and waits for Loki to turn around. Loki finally takes his eyes off the referee and is met with a big boot to the face. Dmitri looks to Loki, and hits a kneedrop to the face. Loki grabs his face in pain, but is short lived as Dmitri pulls him up by the hair and tosses him to the ropes.

Tex: Quite a start by both men in this match.

Duff: I agree.

Loki bounces off the ropes and is met by another Big boot to the face. Loki hits the mat hard and Dmitri goes for the cover. One…….Two…..Thr…..countout. Loki gets a shoulder up in time. Dmitri looks at the referee, and starts telling him to quit slow counting. Loki begins to get up and runs to attack Dmitri, but Dmitri steps aside and Loki clotheslines the referee Chip Long. Loki looks startled, as if he couldn’t believe that he just did that. Dmitri places a chokehold on Loki, who in response tries to do the same to Dmitri. Dmitri makes for a chokeslam but misfires and Loki reverses it into a suplex. Loki tries for a jumping knee drop, connects it, and closes in for a cover but there is no referee there, Stunned, Loki gets up and starts beating on Dmitri, and drags him to the ropes, wrapping him around the second and bottom ropes, then causing further pressure by stepping on his spine. Loki seems to be getting some enjoyment out of this, and continues on as Referee Chip Long is still out cold. The fans begin to boo Loki, but he pays no attention to them. Loki pays no attention to the crowd or John Irons, who has gotten up from his announcer’s chair, and slides into the ring behind Loki. The crowd begins a chant of “Ironman”, to which Loki looks back and stares into the eyes of John Irons who suddenly removes his shirt and reveals a referee shirt that causes the fans to cheer out loud for him. Loki starts to argue with Irons and gets right in his face as the fans continue their Iron Man chant.

Tex Martin: I guess Irons is taking charge huh?

Loki pushes Irons in the chest and Irons pushes him back, causing him to stumble backwards towards Dmitri, who slowly gets to his feet and the big man grabs Loki from behind and delivers a back suplex on Loki and goes for the cover, but Loki kick out of the pin attempt as Dmitri looks at Irons who raises his shoulders up and lets the match continue. Dmitri goes for the Mandible claw submission hold, but Loki blocks the mandible claw hand and slowly gets to his feet and kicks Dmitri in the midsection. Loki holds him by the head and goes for a DDT attempt when suddenly Dmitri grabs him by the waist and runs towards the turnbuckles and delivers several shoulder tackles.

Duff Travers: Damn, this is going to be a good one as both men dont want not to lose

Dmitri starts to unload on Loki, who suddenly blocks a right hand and hits one of his own. He executes a dropkick and then climbs the turnbuckles to execute a double axhandle on Dmitri who is slowly getting to his feet. Just as Loki executes the move it is Dmitri that surprises him with slapping his patented Mandible Claw on Loki and we can see it have his effects on Loki as the newcomer slowly starts to drop to his knees. Fighting the pain as he starts to pound Dmitri in the face, but the vampire holds on to his hold and slowly we witness Loki fade to sleep as Irons calls for the bell.

Stormy Canyon: The winner of this match!! Dmitri!!!

Vampiria's Legacy in Blood hits as Irons raises Dmitri’s hand in the air. John Irons points to Dmitri, as suddenly Goth's music hits as Goth walks out to the ring along with Erik Black and Chaos. The three men walk to the ring as Irons and Dmitri stand tall warning the three men as they run off to the crowd behind each other.

Tex Martin: I guess Irons and Dmitri have a common enemy, is there something happening there??

The shot ends with Goth staring at the two men who is running off into the crowd


Winner: Dmitri

The fans rise as the music of Led Zepplin’s Immigrant Song hits the airways, standing out at the AWA wrestling platform raising his war hammer in the air, one of the rising stars of the AWA the one and only Thor Odinson known as the Hammer of the Gods! He is dressed in his black shirt with the mjornir Norse symbol and the Hammer of the Gods on the back, a pair of blue jeans and work boots holding in his hand his trademark war hammer. Thor heads over confidently to the ring taking the microphone from Stormy Canyon as the fans chant his finisher’s name.

Thor Odinson: Hello AWA! My name is…

AWA Fans: Hammer of the Gods! Hammer of the Gods! Hammer of the Gods!

Thor tries to speak but the fans get louder and louder echoing in the arena. Annoyed Thor looks at them as they continue their chant.

AWA Fans: Hammer of the Gods! Hammer of the Gods! Hammer of the Gods!

Thor Odinson: Shut up! I am speaking here!

The fans grow somewhat quiet still chanting but not as loudly as Thor nods smirks with confidence at the audience as he addresses them this evening.

Thor Odinson: It is good to be here in the AWA. When I was first here no one noticed me. Ignored the freak in the mask going on their own agendas. I spoke and warned. I even called them out. Nothing. Now that I have earned a chance to win the chance of facing The Monster, Chaos for the International Championship at Asylum Gates II people are already threatening me. Not my two opponents Chris Shipman and Jason Stevens that would make sense.

Smirks looking at the fans who boo Chris Shipman and Jason Stevens, two of which the fans have grown not to love too much..

Thor Odinson: Instead Fang is foaming at the mouth looking at me wanting revenge. Beating him twice did not tick him off until now. How thick in the head is he anyways? If Fang wants a rematch sure, I have a recent opening for a sparring partner at the gym to prepare for my matches. Please send me your resume we may consider it.

Thor laughs as some of the fans do, thinking why would some guy who keeps getting his ass kicked want to face him again and again? Thor would call Fang a masochist, but this is a family friendly show.

Thor Odinson: Next up is Rex Butler our Universal Champion. Whoa cool your horses big guy. I could be facing Chaos for the International Championship once I dispatch your stable partner Chris Shipman tonight. Don’t worry Rex your belt the Universal Championship is safe around your waist for now... Too bad for the International Champion Chaos his belt is not! I am coming Chaos are you ready for me?

Thor traces his waist showing Chaos who is watching where his championship will go next, around Thor Odinson’s very waist. The fans love it cheering as Thor Odinson circles the ring talking still picking up his war hammer in his hand.

Thor Odinson: So once again I am out here to say one thing. I am here if you are man enough come at me. You have your stables that is fine, I have hammer here, Ball Buster. I face my opponents one on one, but some of you take the cowards way out and have your stables do your work, Gothling’s Knights and Inmates, I am speaking to you. Why don’t you all be smart men and stand up on your own or all of you schmucks afraid of one lunatic wielding a war hammer? One man that is all I am, but I have already proven so far none of you can stop me. Tonight here in Insomnia my road to International Championship begins and Chaos see you at Asylum Gates II! And what fans is waiting for Chaos and my opponents tonight>

Thor lifts his hand with the war hammer in the air as the fans cheer! His music hits the system Immigrant Song by Led Zepplin as he swings his hammer having the fans voices rip screaming their favorite finisher .

AWA Fans: Hammer of the Gods! Hammer of the Gods! Hammer of the Gods!

Just as Thor heads to the back we prepare ourselves for the next match


Tommy Gunn vs. Fang

tommy gunn vs fang VICARIOUS by Tool hits the speakers as we see Tommy Gunn step through the backstage curtains and out onto the landing at the top of the entrance ramp. He stands on the landing for a moment, staring out into the crowd, receiving a mixed reaction from the crowd here in the Trent FM Arena in Nottingham, England. After looking around at the crowd for awhile Gunn heads down the ramp to the ring. He approaches the ring steps, climbs up the steps, walks along the ring apron, steps through the ropes, and takes up residence in a corner to await the arrival of Fang.

TEX: Tommy Gunn is in a very tough situation tonight against Fang. He is on a major losing streak while Fang, although he lost a match here and there, is back on the winning track.

DUFF: What are you talking about? Tommy Gunn took the hurt to Bill Barnhart and nearly won that match last week. In fact, had Jason Stevens and Marty McFarge not interfered in the match, Gunn would have defeated Barnhart.

TEX: What? Bill Barnhart was just toying around with Tommy Gunn last week Duff. The only reason he had Stevens and McFarge come out and beat town Gunn was that the match was for the purpose of Barnhart giving Tommy a major attitude re-adjustment. I would say that the attitude of Tommy was pretty much re-adjusted.

DUFF: Yeah, re-adjusted enough to make him want to destroy Fang tonight!

STORMY CANYON: Here is our first participant in this Number 3 Contendership spot for the International Title, from the State of Arizona, standing tall at 6 feet 5 inches, and weighing 250 pounds, it is TOMMY GUNN!!!!!

The crowd once again erupts into a mixed reaction over the introduction of Tommy Gunn. He raises his hand in the air as he steps out of the corner to acknowledge the crowd. His acknowledgment is cut short when we hear the howl of a wolf over the speakers as WOLFMAN by Type O Negative hits the speakers. We watch as Jonathan FANG Porter steps through the backstage curtains and heads toward the landing at the top of the entrance ramp. As he walks toward the landing white pyros erupt around the entrance and sparks cascade to the floor. Fang makes no hesitation at the landing but instead heads down the ramp toward the ring. When he arrives at the ring he walks around the ring for one complete time, then he jumps up on the ring apron and slides into the ring. Fang gets to his feet and takes the corner opposite of the corner where Tommy Gunn is located.

TEX: Fang is ready to go Duff. I can already see that Tommy will not last long in this match.

DUFF: You sure say some dumb stuff Tex. I already reminded you that Tommy Gunn would have defeated Barnhart had Jason Stevens and Marty McFarge not interfered in the match.

STORMY CANYON: Here is our next participant in this Number 3 Contendership spot for the International Title, from Long Pond, Pennsylvania, standing 6 feet even and weighing 220 pounds, it is JONATHAN “FANG” PORTER!!!!!

The crowd busts out in a mostly favorable reaction for Fang. Referee Richard Head steps to the center of the ring and he calls Tommy Gunn and Fang to him. Both wrestlers arrive at the middle of the ring as Referee Head checks both of them for concealed weapons and foreign objects. Satisfied that both wrestlers are clean Referee Head calls for the bell and motions for the wrestlers to go at each other. Tommy takes the advantage by grabbing Fang by the arm and whipping him hard into the corner. Gunn follows him into the corner and lands an elbow to the chin of Fang. Tommy pulls Fang out of the corner and whips him into the opposite corner once again following him into the corner with an elbow to the chin. Once again Gunn drags Fang out of the corner and goes for another whip into a corner, but Fang reverses it and whips Tommy into the ropes instead and catches Gunn with a nice dropkick on the rebound. This causes Tommy to drop to the mat and roll out of the ring to break the momentum of Fang.

DUFF: A very smart move on the part of Tommy Gunn to get outside of the ring to break the momentum of Fang.

TEX: A wimp move you mean? I didn’t see Fang running scared outside of the ring when Gunn got the upper hand early in the match. But then as soon as Fang turns the match on him, Tommy has to bail out?

Gunn is walking around ringside to let Fang cool off. Fang is following him within the ring yelling as him to get back into the ring while Referee Richard Head is counting out on Tommy Gunn. ONE…TWO… Tommy continues walking around the ring knowing that he has a ten count to return. THREE…FOUR… Fang doesn’t want to get between the Referee and Tommy and break the count so he holds back but continues to taunt Gunn to get back into the ring. FIVE…SIX… Tommy looks up at Fang in the ring and flips him off then he continues walking around ringside. SEVEN… This really gets Fang upset and we see him run across the ring, rebound off the ropes, and then dive over the top rope and onto the back of Tommy Gunn outside the ring. The two wrestlers tumble to the arena floor and slam into the wooden barricade. Referee Head stops the count on Gunn and he exits the ring to try to break up the fight on the arena floor and to get the two wrestlers back into the ring.

TEX: Wow! That was a great maneuver by Fang to get back at Gunn for flipping him off!

DUFF: More like Tommy got under the skin of Fang and made him do a dumb move instead of letting the Referee count out Gunn.

Both wrestlers are to their knees and they continue to punch and kick each other as both are working to get to their feet. Referee Head steps in and tries to break up the fight and get both wrestlers back into the ring. Head manages to push the two wrestlers apart but they do not remain apart for very long before going at each other again. Richard Head is not having much success breaking them up and getting them back into the ring right now. Tommy Gunn grabs Fang around the waist and tackles him backward into the wooden barricade. Fang nearly goes down from the shot to his lower back but somehow manages to keep his feet. He returns the favor by grabbing Gunn around the waist and driving his back hard against the ring apron. Both wrestlers drop to the arena floor as Referee Head once again steps in and informs both wrestlers if they don’t get back into the ring immediately he will declare this match a Double Disqualification and neither one will win.

TEX: That was a good move on the part of Referee Richard Head. It was obvious that these two were going to continue their fight outside the ring if he did not push them to get back into the ring.

DUFF: Although it was good to see them fighting outside the ring this is not a Hardcore Rules match so they either get back into the ring or both get disqualified.

Tommy and Fang both quickly get back into the ring. Both are still hurting from having their back slammed against the barricade or the ring apron. They both take a short breather while trying to figure out how to get the advantage on the other. Both appear to have their wits about them as they approach each other in the middle of the ring. They lock up and Fang quickly lands a knee to the midsection of Tommy. Gunn retaliates with a hard forearm to the back of the head of Fang. Porter backs off a few steps and executes a nice leg sweep to take Gunn off his feet. Tommy quickly recovers by getting to his feet and driving a few hard knees to the midsection of Fang.

TEX: Well they are going at each other IN the ring now!

DUFF: You said it! This is getting good now!

Fang stands up and manages to deliver a belly-to-belly suplex on Gunn. Tommy gets up from the suplex and hits a spinning flying forearm to the face of Fang. Porter tries to get behind Tommy to lock him into a full nelson but Gunn spins out of it and executes a belly-to-back suplex on Fang. Both wrestlers are on the mat and we can tell they are tired from the repeated back-and-forth maneuvers and blows. Referee Head steps in to ask the wrestlers if they want to submit and both yell out NO so the match continues.

TEX: What a great exchange of hits and maneuvers by these two wrestlers.

DUFF: As always I believe this match is going to come down to who makes the first mistake which allows his opponent to take advantage of it.

Both wrestlers are to their knees and they begin trading punches. Referee Head steps in and cautions them about using a closed fist hit. The wrestlers grab each other and manage to get to their feet. Fang hits Tommy with a forearm smash and Gunn responds with a knee to the midsection. Tommy then hits Fang with a sharpshooter and goes for the pin. Referee Head drops for the count, ONE…TWO… and Fang manages to kick out of the pin. Fang quickly to his feet and he maneuvers behind Tommy and locks in the full nelson. It appears this may be the end of Gunn as he has nowhere to go and apparently no way to break the hold. Referee Head steps up to ask Gunn if he wants to submit and he says NO so the match continues. Gunn figures he has nothing to lose at this point so he kicks his legs out from under him and drops to the mat. This causes Fang to drop on top of him while holding on to the full nelson, causing Fang to slam his jaw on the top of the head of Tommy. Fang lets go of the full nelson and he is rolling around on the mat holding his jaw due to the pain. Tommy tries to take advantage of the situation but as he bends over to drag Fang to his feet Fang manages to get up quickly and execute a DDT upon Gunn, driving his face hard into the mat. Tommy rolls on his back and grabs his face because of the pain. Fang takes advantage of the downed Gunn by leaping into the air and dropping a knee across the throat of Tommy. Fang then drags Tommy to his feet and executes his Diamond Cutter-Fatal Shot finisher, consisting of a modified Diamond Cutter by kicking his feet out from under himself, driving the throat of Tommy into his shoulder blade. Tommy is out as Fang rolls him on his back and gets on top of him for the pin, firmly hooking the legs. Referee Head drops for the count. ONE…TWO…THREE!!! This match is over and Head calls for the bell and makes Fang get off of Tommy Gun

TEX: Wow, one little mistake by Tommy and the match quickly went the other way.

DUFF: Yeah, too bad for Tommy, he was taking the hurt to Fang.

STORMY CANYON: Here is your winner of this match, by pinfall, and earning the Number 3 Contendership for the International Title, it is JONATHAN “FANG” PORTERRRRR!!!!!

Referee Richard Head raises the hand of Fang in victory. The crowd once again goes into a mostly favorable reaction for Fang. Head drops the hand of Fang who walks over to the ropes, exits the ring, and heads up the ramp to return to the backstage area.


Winner: Fang

We come back from a commercial break to find that Erik Black has interrupted the show and is standing in the center of the ring with a mic in hand.

Erik: So tonight I basically have the night off. I’m facing the Toxic Fluke Eliza Baker for a shot at the number one contender spot for the Universal Title..which is currently being held by my old friend Rex Butler. Now.. Seeing as how I basically have the night off because Toxic Fluke stands no chance against me in this very ring, I will address whomever it is that is trying to send a message to me. I don’t care who you are.. I don’t care what you want. Your little games do not bother me. When you decide to stop hiding out and watching from the shadows, I will gladly embarrass you in this ring. Now, that being said, I would like to tell Rex that he should shine that belt up pretty nice because I want it to be shiny when I take it from him..and rest assured that I WILL be taking that title from him and work my way to a second GrandSlam Championship.

And with that, Erik’s music hit and he exited the ring.

The scene opens up backstage at Monday Night Insomnia, Jason, Marty and the girls have just arrived, Marty and Jason via the limo and Sophie and Carry via the rental car, Jason and Marty are talking amongst themselves as are Carry and Sophie who, as you may of guessed, are staying FAR away from Marty McFarge but still close enough so that they don’t have to worry about loosing sight of them and as usual they are accompanied by a dozen bodyguards, an interviewer for a local paper comes up to Jason after Marty tells the guards that he has an appointment.

Interviewer: Hello, I’m Richard Head with the Nottingham Times, and I am here to interview AWA Superstar Jason “The Snake” Roberts, Jason how are you this evening?

The crowd laughs at two things, one: the jokes that can be made about his name and two: his obvious lack of wrestling knowledge, the man is in his early fifties and is completely bald and overweight, in other words he looks like a typical pencil pusher.

JS: First off all, my name’s Jason “The Sensation” Stevens, second I’m fine but can we get this done quickly? I have match to prepare for.

RH: Of course, and I’m sorry for the mix-up, I haven’t watched wrestling since Wrestlemania 3, is WCW still around by the way?

JS: Err, no, they went out of business eight years ago when they where brought out by Vince McMahon.

Richard looks shocked.

RH: Really? I always thought it would be the other way around, anyway Jason you are facing off against Hercules Zeusson and Matt Shipman, what are your thoughts?

We can distinctly here Carry facepalming in the background.

JS: There names are Thor Odinson and Chris Shipman respectively and my thoughts are these, Thor’s a joke who mistaken a business relationship for a gay relationship, not that I have anything against gays, and Chris is a disgrace to wrestling who doesn’t belong in the ring. Is that all? I have a match to prepare for.

Richard nods and Jason, Marty and the girls walk off accompanied by the bodyguards as the scene switches to ringside.


Thor vs. Chris Shipman vs. Jason Stevens

Tex: Three men. One #1 contendership on the line! Who will it be Duff? Any predictions?

Duff; All three are psycho in their own way and all are determined, so I honestly can't see someone coming out of this with a clear win!

Stormy: This match is scheduled for one fall and it is a Triple Threat match for the #1 Contendership for the International Title at Asylum Gates II! Introducing the first opponent, from St. Paul, Minnesota, weighing at 275 lbs.......THOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The beats an rifts of the ‘Immigrant Song’ by Led Zepplin hits the speakers, there rushing to the ring is the man known as Thor Odinson. The fans cheer when he reaches the outside of the ring he jumps up holding the top rope screaming at the top of his lungs shaking the cord. The look on his face is like a madman the fans enjoying it cheering him on. He jumps over the top rope cracking his neck then raises his hand (or hand with his war hammer) in the air as his eyes lock on the entrance ramp, waiting for his two other opponents.

Stormy: Introducing the second opponent, from the Georgian Backwoods, weighing at 235 lbs..........CHRIS SHIPMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man That You Fear by Marilyn Manson blares over the speakers as the lights go out. Suddenly an eruption of pyro over the ramp creates a blast of light to see Shipman with a busted forehead and holding a barbed wire noose. The pyro dies as Shipman walks to the ring. He gets in, throws the noose to the floor and sits in the corner with an expressionless look as the music fades.

Stormy: Introducing the third and last opponent, from Las Vegas, Nevada, weighing at 175 lbs - JASON STEVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The oppening riff for "Halo" is herd over the PA, as soon as it Rob Flynn starts the opening verse Jason emerges from the back with his agent Marty McFarge not far behind him who is yelling into his cell phone, Carry reluctantly follows her brother and his agent obviously annoyed at having to endure Marty for the length of the match,, the fans boo Jason but he ignores them and walks down the ramp, he slides into the ring as Carry and Marty take up separate positions at ringside as all three men lock eyes with each other and get into their respective fighting stances...

Tex: This match is about to get under way.

Can I Play with Madness by Iron Maiden begins playing, stopping everyone in there tracks.

Tex: Oh dear gawd what is going on

Loki appears from behind the curtain, strutting down the ramp towards the ring

Duff: You got that right Tex, it is a god, its Loki von Nif... oh whatever its Loki wonder what he wants

Tex: I think we are about to find out.

Loki stops at the ring then walks around to where Carry is sitting and gets down on one knee

Tex: What the hell is he doing now?

Duff: I think he's gonna propose, hehe.

Loki takes Carry's hand and kisses it. This sends Jason into a rage and Marty comes over to Loki

Tex: Jason isn't amused, and has sent Marty to deal with the situation. Marty is yelling at Loki, who just has that sick smug look on his face as he stands up. Marty shoved him, oh no this could be trouble.

Duff: Oh shut up this is going be really good. Look, Loki isn't smiling anymore.

Tex: Oh god, Loki just delivered his signature move the Ragnarok, a spinning heel kick to the groin area. And he definitely connected as McFarge is doubled over in pain. No, no don't do it

And just then Loki grabs Marty and adminsters the Norse Nightmare, a cradle suplex. Marty hits the concrete with a sickening thud.

Tex: Oh that was sick, he's a monster picking on a helpless man like that. Someone better get help out here Marty isn't moving. He's out cold.

Duff: Oh yeah, I bet he is experiencing a real Norse Nightmare right now, oh don't look now, but here he comes. I love what you just did

Loki grabs the microphone,

Get this match started, I only came down to make sure there was no outside interference in this match

Loki then returns to the seat next to Carry, and begins talking to her.

Tex: Well whatever, he over talking to Carry again, and he has her smiling and laughing, not sure what's going on there

With that the bell rings, signifying that the match is on

Stevens turned around and was quickly blindsided by the other two, who quickly hammer away with punches of their own, but Steve takes flight and kicks them both away to their face. The two men stagger back and Jason charges in with a flying clothsline, taking down the both of them! The Sensation then starts to stomp a mud hole on Thor, who becomes the recipent of a few elbow drops before the quick assault ends with a legdrop. The first pin attempt from Stevens comes into play, but the psychotic Shipman ends that count by landing a strong kick to the back of Jason's head. Shipman picks up Stevens, lands a couple of strikes into his opponent's stomach before using his knee to smash Jason's face. Jason falls harshly to the mat, covering his face, Shipman turns around to work on Thor, but Thor lays him out with a big boot, sending him out of the ring. Thor climbs out of the ring through the ropes, steps down, and plants a mud hole of his own on Shipman. Thor picks up Shipman, knees him in the stomach, then executes a quick DDT to Shipman, who is now laying out on the ground. Stevens lands back on his feet with a kip-up, finds Thor getting up from his move, and quickly hits the ropes. Thor concentrated on Shipman, but didn't turn around fast on time to counter Jason's flying cross body splash. Both men land down, the crowd instantly liking the Sensation's move. All three men are now laid out on the outside, the referee counting them, the crowd joining. Jason's the first to get up as he picks up Shipman and dishes out a few martial arts kicks. However, Jason tries to finish him off with a spinning heel jump kick, but Shipman ducks under it, then unleashes a pulverizing clothsline! Shipman tosses Jason back into the ring, Thor slowly, but surely getting up from the outside. Shipman gets on top of Stevens and lands a few stiff lefts and rights to Jason's face, some of which he is able to block, others he could not. Shipman rolls off him, then laughs manically as he locks Stevens in a Boston Crab. Stevens is screaming in agony, trying not to tap at all. A few minutes later, Thor rushes to Shipman with a blindsiding high jumping knee that knocks Shipman out cold. Thor turns his attention to Stevens, who is struggling to get up and does so. Thor turns him around and knocks him back with a few stiff punches until Stevens is at the lower-left corner of the ring. Thor climbs the ring and punches him at least ten times, Stevens dizzied at the moment. It seems that Shipman has regained his consciousness, as Thor heard a scream of rage and turned around, only to feel a big boot coming to his face! Thor's down as Shipman assaults him with punches that are reminiscent of Steve Austin, but Jason fights back, reversing positions and laying him out with chop hits to the chest along with some more martial arts kicks! Then he jumps in the air, hooks his feet between Shipman's head, and executes a devastating Frankensteiner! There is something happening on the outside, Jason's attention now shifted over there.

  Tex: Uh oh it appears that Jason has been distracted by what is going on outside the ring, Loki has his arm around her shoulders and she is leaning her head on him.

Jason walks over the ropes and is yelling at Carry, Loki gives him a shoulder shrug and then points behind him

Tex: Jason lost his focus and now he's in trouble

Stevens turns around, only to be thrown out of the ring with a wicked clothsline coming from Thor. Stevens lands on the outside canvas, his wind knocked out temporilary, as Shipman takes the initative. Shipman plants an axe handle smash to Thor's back, who arches his back in pain. Shipman turns him around and nails him with a quick headbutt, Thor staggering back. He reaches the lower-right corner, Shipman coming to follow up his own attack with some more punches, but Thor stops him with a quick kick to the groin area, the referee not seeing it, as he is also distracted by what's going on on the outside as Jason and Loki get into a heated argument. Thor follows it up with a swinging neckbreaker, sending Shipman to the canvas harshly! The referee turns around, in time, to see Thor getting a pin attempt, but Shipman brings up his shoulder at the count of two! Jason's mind is now brought back to the match as he climbs up the steps and then leaps on the top turnbuckle on the upper-right. Thor speaks with the referee about the slow count and is not happy with it. He wouldn't be any more happier when he became the victim of a missile dropkick, courtesy of Jason Stevens! Thor staggers back and hits the floor in pain, Jason Stevens grinning at the attack. Then he focuses his attention onto Shipman, picks him up, and locks him in with a suplex. He tries to air him in the air, but Shipman won't budge. Stevens tries again and Shipman counters it with a suplex of his own! Jason didn't see that one coming and he also didn't see the knee that hits his stomach and Jason rolls away from the pain, clutching his stomach in pain. Thor gets up and has his back on the turnbuckle and the two combatants now trying to gain an advantage with stiff rights, obviously both tired from the match. Jason comes back and blindsides the two men by surprises with a dropkick hitting Shipman's back, who then staggers foward and slam Thor into the turnbuckle. Shipman staggers back and turns around, only to be the viictim of the Muscle Buster! Jason covers Shipman, thinking that the match is gonna be over, but just as the referee is about to hit the count of three, Thor jumps in and makes the save as he kicks Jason's leg! Thor, with an angry face creased on his features, plants a huge mudhole on Jason, then picks him up, throws him to the ropes, and scoops him up for a vicious powerslam! It is now Thor's turn to go for a pin, but Shipman drags him off and quickly uses the opportunity to score an ankle lock, hoping to finish off Thor and win the match! Thor is screaming in pain, Shipman tightening up the pressure. Thor, it seems like, is about to tap to the canvas, his his raised, still trying to fight off the immense pain. Suddenly, Shipman lets go, seeing Jason coming at him with a roundhouse kick and grabs it in time, grinning at him evily. But Jason outsmarts him with an Enziguri, completely taking him out by surprise. As Shipman falls to the floor, Jason looks at the fallen Thor and stomps a mudhole in him a few times. Deciding that thie match is now his, he gestures to the crowd - another finisher is coming, it seems! Jason reaches the upper-right turnbuckle and leaps on time, waiting to jump off and nail Thor with the finish! Thor is back on his feet, although kinda limping from the ankle lock he received a few seconds ago. He turns around and manages to see Jason coming in with the Shooting Star Press! But Thor is ready and he is somehow able to catch him in midair and execute his finisher - THE HAMMER OF THE GODS! In seconds, Jason lays on the floor, breathing hard as Thor hooks the leg. 1.....Shipman gets up slowly, using the ropes to shake it off. 2....Shipman now turns around and see what's going on! As Shipman tries to stop Thor with a punch to the back of Thor, the referee's count finally ends with a third slap to the match! Thor managed to see Shipman coming and rolls out of the way quickly, hitting Stevens instead!

Stormy: Here is your winner and the #1 contendership for the International title - THOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tex: All three men gave it their best, but in the end, Thor prevailed!

Duff: Jason and Shipman were very tough for this fight, but you are right, partner - Thor just had what it took to win tonight!

Thor's hand is raised by the referee as Shipman looks up at Thor in defeat, as Stevens is rolling away. Thor gets out of the ring and walks up the ramp, looking at the camera and motioning for the belt to be around his waist as Carry and Marty check up on Stevens as Shipman is screaming with rage...


Winner: Thor


Toxic Angel vs. Erik Black

Stormy: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. The winner will receive an AWA Universal Title shot at Asylum Gates 2!

The Nottingham crowd in attendance cheers as the ringside bell rings. The lights go out before white strobe lights kick on. "MMM I said the fish don’t fry in the kitchen!” BOOM! Huge pyros go off. Out from the back steps Erik Black as “Batter Up” by Nelly begins to play. Erik has a black towel draped over his head. He looks around to the crowd and then to the ring. He takes a deep breath and slowly makes his way down to the ring. He never takes his eyes off of it. He is in full concentration. Once Erik gets to the ring, he slides under the bottom rope. He gets up and stands in the center of the ring. A smirk crosses his face but quickly fades. He takes the black towel off of his head and throws it into the crowd as his music fades out.

Tex: Erik Black is out here and looking to finally get back to the top of the AWA once again.

Duff: But his opponent, who has recently been at the top, once to be back there as well! And I’m all for her! I just wish that she’d hook up with me instead of Dmitri. Blech!

After Erik comes to the ring, he is waiting for Toxic Angel. As Erik waits the lights in the arena goes out and a bolt of thunder is heard through out the arena.

Tex: Not again with the lights going out.

Duff: This place has bad lighting that’s why these lights are flickering on and off all the time.

Tex: Well Duff, I don’t think that’s the lighting problem I think someone did that on purpose to try to get the attention one Erik Black.

Duff: Yeah but who?

Just as than the titan tron has yet another message, and Tex reads it.

Tex: Look Duff, at the titan tron.

Duff: Yeah its another one of those messages.

Tex: "Erik Black you have two more weeks left until your Execution. Be prepared to be Executed out of Existence!"

Another bolt of lighting strikes the tron and turns on the lights, and Erik Black looks up at the rampway being prepared for whatever happens.

Stormy: Now in the ring, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 225 pounds…Eriiik Blaaack!!!

The crowd gives off a mixed reaction before “Get Pyscho” by Disturbed begins to play. The same mixed reaction fills the crowd and the lights begin to fade out. A green spotlight lights up the top of the ramp as Toxic Angel is seen walking out onto the top of the ramp from behind the curtains. As she begins walking down the ramp, she stops at the half way point and begins to run the rest of the way making sure to slide into the ring under the bottom rope. Flipping up to her feet, the lights begin to fade back to normal as she stands in the middle of the ring waiting for her match to begin. She even turns towards Erik Black, not looking all that impressed with him.

Stormy: And his opponent, from Montreal, Quebec…Toxiiiic Angellll!!!

The referee calls for the bell and the match immediately gets underway, Erik Black circling around Toxic. She follows his every movement before Erik lunges for her. Toxic ducks and Erik gets nothing but air. Toxic now springs back up and goes airborne, looking to attach her legs around Erik’s head. She succeeds and flips Erik over with a hurricanrana that actually makes the Nottingham crowd cheer.

Tex: Nice athleticism from Eliza Baxter right there!

Duff: Oh sure, now you get on the bandwagon.

Toxic gets back up and keeps up her advantage by backing Erik up into one of the corners. It’s here where she goes for a lunging kick that connects to the throat of Black. Erik teeters but doesn’t drop to his knees. Instead he goes to return fire with a punch to Toxic’s sternum, but Toxic blocks it. She then crouches down and sweeps her leg right up against the ankles of Black, bringing him down now to his knees. Toxic reaches out and goes to grab Erik’s neck, but he suddenly rams his head right into Toxic’s chest, backing her up.

Duff: Perv!

Tex: Oh really now Duff. Erik’s just attempting to free himself from his predicament. Besides, you’re the one always looking at the females in the crowd!

Duff: Do not! Oh hey, nice blonde in the second row over there. If only I could…

Tex: See?

Duff: …

Erik goes for a chop to Toxic’s abdomen, but again it’s blocked.

Tex: Erik has been unable to gain control so far.

Duff: It’s a good thing that he hasn’t!

The second Duff says this at ringside, Toxic goes to stand on the middle rope. She turns her back to her opponent and goes to leap off to hit Black with a lionsault. However Black catches her in midair and delivers an overhead to belly to belly suplex into a sudden pin.

The referee assigned to the match, “Chocolate” Chip Long, goes down to count the pinfall attempt.

Referee Long: ONE…TWO…

Toxic kicks out and doesn’t look very happy. She begins to get up, but Erik keeps the advantage and now applies a rear naked choke. The referee watches the situation carefully as Dmitri now steps out onto the stage.

Tex: And we now have some unwanted company…

Duff: He’s not coming down to the ring. He’s only out here to support Eliza.

Tex: Sure…right…

Erik keeps the hold locked in and Toxic slowly goes down to her knees. The crowd, some of it, begins to will Toxic on, but Erik seemingly locks in the hold harder. As this happens, Dmitri takes a couple steps down the entranceway, but stops as the referee is looking his way now. In the ring, Toxic is slowly losing consciousness. The referee turns back to the two in the ring and sees what is happening. He asks Toxic if she wants to give up, but she shakes her head weakly. Erik suddenly clubs Toxic in the back and Toxic lies on her stomach in the ring. Erik grins a little and gains his cockiness back. He stands Toxic up and puts a thumb across his own throat before applying the No Mas. The Nottingham crowd gives off a mixed reaction, more boos than cheers this time.

Tex: This one just might be over…and early too!

Duff: If Dmitri doesn’t go free her, I will!

Tex: You will be doing nothing of the kind!

It’s as if Dmitri has heard Duff as he makes a beeline now for the ring. He slides in underneath the bottom rope. The referee turns to cut him off, but Dmitri goes right through the referee and pulls Erik Black off of Toxic. Erik goes to superkick Dmitri, but Dmitri ducks and then applies the Vampire Bite to Erik as Referee Long calls for the bell.

Dmitri doesn’t let go of the hold, but does look to where Toxic is out of it on the mat, helpless. The bell keeps ringing until finally Dmitri lets go of the mandible claw that he has on Erik. He tosses Erik to the side and immediately goes to tend to Toxic as we hear the match decision.

Stormy: Ladies and gentlemen, due to interference from Dmitri, the winner of the match and the #1 Contender to the AWA Universal Title…Erik Black!!!

Erik rolls out of the ring to safety and begins to back up the entrance ramp as he looks into the ring. “Batter Up” by Nelly begins to play as Erik begins to make a belt motion, saying silently that he is the one that will get to go after Rex Butler and the Universal Title belt.

After the match ended Erik Black gets up and gets himself together. Just as than a thunder sound is heard and the lights go out.

Tex: Not again!

Duff: What just happened?

Tex: The lights went out, and Erik Black is in the middle of the ring.

The lights are and one can see what’s going on in the ring. Than there’s some loud noises coming from the ring middle of the ring, and it sounds like there’s a fight going on.

Tex: Can you hear that Duff?

Duff: Hear what? You!?

Just as than loud thud is heard from in the middle of the ring, and from the sounds of it, it sounded like someone was hit with a powerful move. Than the lights come back on and Erik Black is laid out in the middle of the ring. With his face, facing up, and his arms crossed over his body.

Tex: OH MY GOD ERIK BLACK HAS BEEN LAID OUT!

Duff: Now who would do something like this?

Tex: Duff have you been paying attention to these messages that are aimed directly to Erik Black?

Duff: Why of course I have, why do you ask?

Tex: Whoever this person is, they might of done this to Erik Black. That’s why I’m asking you to see if you have any of your opinion on this situation.

Duff: Well I do have an opinion on this situation, and I have no clue on who this guy is. I guess were gonna have to wait two more weeks until we find out what’s going on here.


Winner: Erik Black

After a commercial break we go to the backstage area…where Jade Green stands beside the AWA General Manager, Jay Gold. The Nottingham crowd cheers as they haven’t seen the General Manager for weeks!

Jade: So Mr. Gold, we haven’t seen you in weeks, nor have we seen the young lady that appointed you as General Manager, Stacy Kissinger. Can you shed any light on both of your disappearance acts as of late?

Jay Gold: Well first off Jade. I would like to congratulate all of the winners so far here tonight. Thor will be taking on Chaos for the International Title at Asylum Gates 2…and Erik Black will be taking on the Universal Champion, Rex Butler. Two great matches that will lead AWA into an even brighter future.

But now what you’ve asked me about. Stacy and I have been gone for a bit, yes. But there are quite a few good reasons for that. I’ve been dealing with matters at home while Stacy has been dealing with stuff professionally and personally. She hasn’t told me all of the details. However the fact of it all is is that we’re both going to be around, watching. The AWA is in good hands. Want to know why? I’ve been watching Goth, as has Stacy, and we both see him as a good owner.

Jade: You didn’t use to think that Jay.

Jay Gold: I do now though and that’s what counts. Anyways, let’s get on with the main event. Should be a good one. I’ll be watching it from my office if you want to join me…that’s if you have any more questions.

Jade: I might. Thanks for the invite.

Jay and Jade walk down the hallway as the scene fades to commercials.

Rex Butler and Alisha Hicks are seen walking from their locker room. Rex has on his ring attire, and the AWA Universal Title draped over his shoulder. Alisha walks beside him in a red top and black pants. They are seen talking to one another as Page Harris approaches them. Butler and Hicks stop as Page walks closer to them...

Page: "Rex, earlier tonight we saw you attack "Bulldog" Bill Barnhart in his office. And, shortly after that, the owner of the AWA had some very coarse words for you. Do you have anything you'd like to say in response?"

Rex let out a quick chuckle as Alisha could be seen shaking her head and looking off into the distance. Rex adjusted the title over his shoulder and looked directly at Page, not the camera...

Rex: "Bill Barnhart... am I supposed to roll over and let that greasy hairball walk all over me just because he got inducted into the Hall of Fame last month? Bill Barnhart loses the Universal Title that I have with me tonight, and yet, he still sits back and runs his mouth like he runs the place. To me, Page, and the rest of the Inmates... we all thought the same thing. We all thought that it was time that the only person who works for Goth who has not felt our wrath needed to be included. It just so happened that today was that day. And, I know he's all about adjusting the attitudes of people who he personally feels have gotten out of line... well, if he's listening right now, he can consider that line officially crossed."

Page: "And... what about..."

Rex: "Shut your goddamn mouth, woman! Can't you let someone take a breath before interrupting them?"

Rex snatched the microphone out of Page's hand, forcing her to run away in fear. Rex turns to face the camera...

Rex: "Goth, you fucking toothpick! Do you honesty think I'm going to let some skinny little face-painted bitch tell me what I can and can't do inside that ring? You bring up the fact that I was nothing but a second fiddle as a member of Zero Tolerance... when you know damn well how valuable I was to them. Sure, I didn't win the Global Title while I was there, but I was just as successful and just as dominant. And, now... now you say I'm second fiddle to you? Why is that? Because you're the owner and I'm the Universal Champion? Should I be afraid of you simply because the only real thing you can do is fire me? Well, trust me... Al and Grinder tried to pull that shit a couple years ago... and it didn't work. It's not going to work now, either. You say you want my "band of primates" to shut up? Well, like you said, tonight's the night when you get the chance to shut up the top guy. Tonight is your chance to bring the Universal Title over to your group of wasted talent. I just wonder what the look on your face will be when you watch me walk out of that Hell in a Cell with this little title over my shoulder..."

Rex and Alisha begin to walk away but suddenly stop. Rex turns back to the camera and holds the microphone up to his mouth...

Rex: "Goth... you always seem to run your mouth when you've got people behind your back, just waiting for your beckoned call. Would you be so bold if you were left to fight this war all on your own?"

Rex dropped the microphone and began to laugh as he and Alisha walked off again. The scene fades to back...


Rex Butler vs. Chaos

The fans in attendance are going crazy, several “ENGALAND, “ENGALAND” chants can be heard as well as “AWA!” chants, the crowd goes nuts as the cell decends upon the ring.

SC: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is your Asylum Wrestling Alliance Main Event of the Evening! And it is a Hell In A Cell Match for the Universal championship!

The crowd goes ballistic at that announcement as the cell meets the ring.

Texx: Parents, put your kids to bed because this is going to get ugly!

Duff: That’s the biggest understatement I’ve ever heard!

Lights fade as "Blow Me Away'' by Breaking Benjamin begins with the lights flashing in the darkness to the music and then as soon as the song gets going full swing the arena lights come on and Chaos appears and stands at the top/center of the stage.. as he holds his hands above his head fireworks once... twice... three times as they go off behind him and then he continues to walk down the ramp at a slow and ominous pace. Chaos then makes his way into the cell via the door and climbs through the second rope and ascends to the top rope where he poses for a moment with his hands raised in the air, the crowd is booing the hell of him as he jumps down for the ropes and gets into a classic wrestling stance ready for competition.

SC: The challenger, from South Wales, weighing in at 265ibs and representing the King’s Templar “THE MONSTER” CHAOS!!!!

The opening guitar riff of "Hero" by Pop Evil begin to play as the lights in the arena go out. Strobe lights flash at different angles as the cymbal joins in with the guitar. After a second time the lights and music stop and the arena goes black for a second before screaming fills the arena and the music kicks back in as pyrotechnics shoot from the stage. Rex Butler walks through the curtains carrying the AWA Universal Title over his shoulder as Alisha Hicks walks out beside him. They make their way to the ring while Rex stares straight ahead, ignoring the crowd at ringside. Rex enters through the same door that Chaos used not taking his eyes of the challenger and stands in the center of the ring, where he holds up the Universal Title. Chaos shouts out taunts at Rex making the belt motion around his waist and the two men get into a shouting match in the centre of the ring.

SC: The opponent, from Los Angelus, California weighing in at 275ibs and representing the Inmates, he is the Universal Champion REX BUTLER!!!!

Stormy quickly leaves the ring and the timekeeper rings the bell, immediately after the bell is rung the two heavyweights start brawling with each other exchanging punches and kicks like nobody’s business and the crowd are eating it up, Chaos gets the advantage by kicking Rex’s leg buckling the slightly larger man and Chaos goes on the attack, he stomps Rex’s prone form before forcing him to his feet and slamming him into the cell wall face first over and over busting him open, Rex gains the advantage over the challenger by kicking him in the gut and driving him into the matt with a powerbomb, he goes for a cover 1…2…kickout just before the three count.

Texx: Told you this would get ugly!

Rex wipes some of the blood from his face and yells something at Alicia, she smiles and grabs a steel chair and slides it into the ring after opening the cell door, Rex picks up the chair and waits for Chaos to get to his feet, once he does Rex swings the chair hitting Chaos in the face busting him open as well, the crowd are going ballistic of course as they are loving this action, Rex goes for another pin 1….2….kickout by Chaos.

Texx: So far this has been ugly, but what else would you expect from a match such as this?

Rex just shakes his head in frustration and picks the chair up again, he waits for the big man to get up and swings the chair again, however this time Chaos ducks and Rex hits the cell wall with the chair, Rex turns around and Chaos Superkicks the chair into Rex’s face, he goes for a cover 1….2….Alicia, who snuck back into the cell whilst Rex was waiting for Chaos to turn around, pulls the ref out, Chaos looks annoyed and leaves the ring and confronts Alicia who immediately backs away knowing that she’s in way over her head, Chaos reenters the ring and Rex, who has used the time to recover, goes for a Yakuza Kick, however Chaos ducks the kick, bounces of the opposite ropes and spears Rex down before punching away at the big man’s head knowing that a pin fall attempt would be pointless until the ref comes too, Chaos gets up and plays to the crowd who are cheering on the action.

Texx: Rex and Chaos have really been going at it these past few minutes.

Duff: Thank you for the world’s most terrifying mental image.

However Chaos spends to much time playing to the crowd and Rex is up and waits for Chaos to turn around, when he does Rex runs and nearly decapitates Chaos with a brutal lariat, he goes for a cover 1…2…kickout by Chaos, whilst this has been going on Chris Shipman has made a surprise appearance but didn’t get involved with the competitors, instead he set up a table at ringside before running to the back, Rex nods in approval upon seeing the table, apparently a part of some plan by the duo, and Rex gets up and leaves the cell altogether, Chaos is quick to follow him out but and Rex CLIMBS THE CELL WALL and reaches the roof, he pulls himself onto the cell roof and Chaos doesn’t hesitate in following him.

Texx: Oh god, this cannot end well!!!

Chaos reaches the cell roof and they start brawling again not even noticing how much danger they had just put there lives in, Chaos goes for a hits a back suplex onto the cell roof and goes for a cover 1….2….Rex kicks out, another person appears at ringside this time to assist Chaos as Jason “The Sensation” Stevens has started climbing the cell, Marty McFarge is with him but wisely decides to stick to lower ground, that or he’s scarred of Rex Butler, either way Jason reaches the top off the cell and pulls himself up, Rex backs towards him and Jason gets the bigger man in a Full Nelson and Chaos grins taking the opportunity to fire some punches at the midsection of Rex, Chaos backs off for some reason but it’s soon revealed why as Jason goes for a Tiger Suplex of the cell.

Texx: DON’T DO IT JASON! DON’T!

Duff: DO IT! DO IT!

Thankfully for Rex he low blows Jason, who barely manages to avoid falling off the cell in the meantime, and resumes brawling with Chaos, Chaos gets the advantage after a mistake by Rex and Powerbombs Rex, causing a small section of the roof to fall down taking them both down with it barely missing the referee in the process, Chaos lands on top of Rex and the ref gets into position 1….2….REX KICKS OUT!!!!!!!

Texx: Dear god! What will it take for either man to keep the other down! WHAT?!

Chaos rolls off of Rex’s prone body apparently not noticing the pin fall and the ref starts a ten count 1….2….3….Rex starts to move…..4…..Chaos is struggleling to get to his feet….5….6….Rex is almost to his feet…..7….8….9….both men are up and, despite needing urgent medical attention, they start brawling again and as you may of guessed the crowd are loving it!

Texx: This has been a brutal match so far but only one will walk out the Universal Champion!

Duff: WALK?! Texx you and I both saw what these men are willing to put themselves through to win this match, it’s more likely that they’ll be leaving on stretchers!

Duff’s statement seems to be true as both men are bleeding badly but neither of them are willing to give up just yet, this match has deteriated into an all out slugfest between two heavyweights and they are trading blows and occasionally slamming each other’s heads into the cell walls, Rex eventually gets the advantage again and goes for and hits The Wicked Sensation, he goes for a cover 1…2….JASON BREAKS IT UP WITH A SENSATIONAL STAR PRESS THROUGH THE HOLE IN THE CELL!!!!

Texx: What the hell was Jason thinking?!

Duff: Chaos is his teammate; his has to help somehow, that’s what!!!

The crowd are going nuts as Jason rolls away from the two bigger men, Marty’s jaw is hanging open as he looks on with concern for his client and his client’s stablemate, Jason wisely rolls out of the ring to avoid further injury as the medics tend to him and the two big men inside the ring resume brawling, once Jason is out of harms way the two men leave the cell and ascend the cell again brawling with their free hands as they do, they reach the top off the cell and start brawling careful to avoid the hole in the cell, Chaos gets the advantage by kicking Rex in the stomach and going for a powerbomb off the top of the cell, Rex reverses it and gets him into position for a Death Valley Driver, he runs towards the cell roof, leaps and he and Chaos plummet to the ground but Rex manages to keep Chaos in position and drives him through the table that Shipman set up earlier in the match, the crowd go crazy with “HOLY SHIT” chants and Rex drapes an arm over Chaos’s body 1….2….3!!!!

SC: THE WINNER AND STILL UNIVERSAL CHAMPION REX BUTLER!!!!

Just as the announcement is being made we can see Erik Black coming down to the ring and unlocking the door as he sprints towards Rex Butler. Black starts to pound away at the now battered champion and locks him in a submission hold that sends the champion to unconsciousness

Tex Martin: Black is going to send a signal to Rex Butler that he wants the belt at Asylum Gates!!!

Suddenly Goth emerges on the rampway with Sapphira by his side and laughing as he puts the microphone to his mouth

Goth: I guess now you know that you are playing second fiddle to me Rex, tonight was just the beginning. In the end, both titles will be MINE!!!

With that Goth grins as he watches Black grab the championship belt and hold it high above his head, while looking down upon the beaten down Rex Butler


Winner: Rex Butler
