Corey Bull & Frank Lowe vs. The Colonnade
An unsettling hush comes over the crowd, just before the lights are cut off like someone blowing out a candle. A red strobe pulsates to life as The Duchess of Bedlam methodically walks out to center stage draped in a white sheer veil, her hands bound in a prayer. Byron steps out from behind the curtain dressed in his black trunks with crimson trim, black boots with black wraparound kick pads, and his hands and wrists taped up with black tape. A flowing priest stole with the red pillar-shaped insignia of The Colonnade gives him a mark of authority. He moves slowly around The Duchess, eyeing her up and down, he goes in to lift her veil, but instead grabs a hold of the red rope. Suddenly, "Everybody Knows" by Wild Fire begins. As the song picks up, Lester Parish appears behind him in a road-worn white button up shirt with faded pinstripes and black slacks. A black leather mask covers his face as the lights dim to back to normal levels. Adilene Floyd: Accompanied to the ring by Lady Envy "The Duchess of Bedlam"... And entering the ring at a combined weight of 525 pounds... Representing the Colonnade... "The Sin Eater" Byron Bathory and Lester Parish!Bathory turns toward the ramp and gives a cocky smile as he slowly pulls The Duchess along with him. Fans reach out, but Byron blows them off and jaws at them for their trouble. Parish takes to the opposite staircase and walks into the ring with no theatrics behind his powerful, lumbering gait. Byron gets to the ring, leading The Duchess up the stairs, where he slowly unties her hands. The two enter center stage as The Duchess circles him, offering his finely chiseled physique to the crowd. The Duchess lowers herself to her knees at Byron's side, she looks up at him as she grabs onto his leg and she slowly pulls up her veil, revealing a demonic smile. Byron nods with his own crazed look before the lights cut back off. Parish leers from over them for a moment before the team disperses to their corner. Chris Avery: Colonnade looking good here tonight!Billy: Yeah, they are ready for some more tag team action! They’ve got their eyes on the tag titles!The opening guitar riff of “If You Want Blood” by AC/DC hits the PA, and Frank Lowe walks out onto the stage smoking a cigarette. Frank snears at the crowd as he walks down the ramp. Adilene Floyd: From Detroit, Michigan, weighing in at 256 pounds, he is RAGING… FRANK… LOWE!Frank reaches the ring and stubbs his cigarette out on the bottom of his wrestling boot before flicking the butt into the audience and climbing into the ring to await the start of the match. Billy: Frank Lowe hasn’t been in action in a few weeks since the loss to Philidor in 6-man tag action.Chris Avery: I feel like he has a huge advantage here with fellow monster Corey Bull though.The lighting throughout the arena slowly fades into darkness evoking a sense of fearsome and suspenseful apprehension over the viewing audience as the opening riff of “Cry Little Sister" by Gerard McMann begins to play throughout the arena. Eerie grayish black strobe lighting starts cascading throughout the arena as a series of grainy black and white video images shows Corey Bull laying out Spencer Adams, Casey Holliday, Oblivion, Scott Slayer and two other no named jabronies on the screen of the ACTIONtron. “The Hatebringer” Corey Bull appears to rise up in slow motion from the depths of hell in front of the ACTIONtron screen, live and in living color, on stage wearing a silver metal death mask, an oily bloodstained gray fleece hoodie with a bandolier bullet belt wrapped around his waist under a zipped up full grain heavy duty black leather motorcycle jacket,oil-stained, grimy jean pants, and heavy duty tan steel-toe work boots. Standing next to him, in a pair of jeans and a devilishly gorgeous top, is Loa. In her hands she holds the voodoo skull that she uses to drive Bull to greater heights. The eerie grayish black strobe lighting catches Corey Bull looking a little off-kilter and more and more unsettling like a monster-lurking-in-the-shadows while holding in his bloodstained taped wrapped hands the four feet of steel loggers chain, tainted with the dried blood of those that have felt its bite before. Loa chuckles and runs her hand down the leather of the jacket. Her smile is both seductive and malicious as she nods towards the ring. Loa starts for the ring, Bull walking behind her and dragging the four feet of loggers chain behind him. Adilene Floyd: And making his way down the aisle, being led to the ring by the voodoo princess Loa...standing 6'10", and weighing in at 385 pounds, hailing from the Great Northwoods, here is, “The Hatebringer” Corey BBBBUUUUULLLLLL!He very crudely drapes the four feet of loggers chain over the ring post and turns to Loa. She raises the skull and Bull looks over her, seemingly absorbing her beauty as if he will never see it again, before staring at the skull and taking a moment of appreciative fascination for his prize possession, seeming to take power from it as it stares back at him. Bull climbs up on the apron and climbs over the top rope like a small fence and begins pacing back and forth like a predatory animal trapped in the confines of a cage in a zoo. Billy: This is going to be an interesting tag team match with Corey Bull and Frank Lowe.Chris Avery: Yeah, Corey Bull was last seen on Clash losing to Corey Black in a PIt Fight match so you know he wants to get back on track heading into Havoc!The referee signals for the bell to begin the match. Corey Bull and Lester start off for their respective teams. Corey Bull immediately backs Lester up with a pair of thrusting throat uppercuts, backing Lester up into the ropes before whipping him across the ring and dropping him with a big boot. Lester is back up but goes down to a lifting knee. Lester tries to get to his feet but is nailed with a punt. Frank yells at Corey to tag him in. Bull hesitates but tags in Frank. Frank is in and climbs to the top rope and nails a flying crossbody. Before Lester can get to his feet, he nails a jumping fist drop. Lester bails out of the ring, rolling under the ropes to get away from Frank Lowe. Frank gives him no room to breathe by taking to the air with a suicide dive! Billy: Frank Lowe and Corey Bull taking it to Lester Parish right now!Chris Avery: Frank isn’t done yet and is nailing Lester with some repeated stiff punches to the head!Frank Lowe rolls Lester back under the ropes and covers him for the pin attempt, using the ropes for leverage! ONEEE!! TW--NOOO! The referee stops counting and Frank starts arguing with the referee who says he was cheating. Frank goes to grab Lester as he gets to his feet, but Lester lays Frank out with a huge haymaker! Lester stumbles to his corner and tags in Byron Bathory! Byron is in and puts Lowe down with a spinning roundhouse kick. Bull climbs into the ring but is taken down by a rolling elbow. Byron quickly gets to his feet and springboards off the ropes, taking Frank down again with a disaster kick! Frank is up in the corner but eats a pair of running double knees from Bathory. Frank balis out of the ring, but Bathory follows out and takes him down with a shining wizard! Frank looks out and Bathory muscles him back up onto the apron and hooks the leg. ONEEE!! TW--NOOO! Bull makes the save. Bathory tags in Lester who clotheslines Frank to the mat before nailing him with some huge elbows, punishing him in the corner. Lester grabs Frank by the throat and hits a choke toss, throwing him across the ring. Frank is whipped across the ring and dropped across the top rope with a stungun. He bounces up into the air and stumbles across the ring before nearly having his head taken off with a big boot! Billy: SHITFIRE! Frank almost got decapitated by that boot!Chris Avery: Colonnade has turned this match around, but Frank just ducked a clothesline and dove for the hot tag to Corey Bull!Bull is in the ring and spears Lester to the mat! Lester rolls over quickly and tags in Bathory. Bull catches a charging Bathory and drops him with an overhead belly-to-belly suplex! Bull lifts him up for a gutwrench powerbomb before following it up with a swinging sidewalk slam! Bull goes for the pin! ONEEE!! T--NOO! Lester makes the save! Bull quickly grabs Lester and drops him for a Samoan slam before whipping him across the ring and dropping him with a big gorilla press slam. Frank Lowe is tagged back into the match and he leaps off the second rope for a fist drop! Frank hits a belly-to-belly suplex before nailing a scoop powerslam! Billy: Lester is really taking a beating here right now. Brainbuster by Frank Lowe!Chris Avery: Yeah, Lester is cheering him on, wanting the tag bad!Billy: Frank is laying a beating on Bathory right now, putting on a suplex clinic with a fisherman’s suplex and then a gutwrench suplex!Frank rolls Bathory up and holds the tights behind the referee’s back! ONEEE!! TWOOO!!! THRE--NOOO! Lester makes the save! Lester pulls Bathory over before Frank can do anything about it and tags himself back in. Bathory ducks Frank’s clothesline attempt and nails a spear! Bathory nails a belly-to-belly suplex followed by a chimera-plex. Bathory plays to the ground and goes nuts with a tiger suplex and then a dragon suplex before tagging in Lester. Lester nails a scoop slam and pulls Frank to his feet and over to the ropes where he nails a huge superplex! Lester grabs Frank from behind and drops him with a belly-to-back suplex before whipping him across the ring and catching him with a big powerslam! Lester hooks the leg! ONEEE!! TWOOO!! THREE!! DING DING DING Billy: What a win for Colonnade!!Just then Lester gets up to celebrate but Bathory shoves him! The music stops! Lester is confused but Bathory seems upset he pinned and not him! Chris Avery: Bathory got the win too, its a tag TEAM match?Billy: I believe Bathory wanted to pin! This team as of late has just not been on the same page!Bull and the Hangmen grab Lowe and help Lowe up the ramp but Lowe is yelling insults at Bull and the Hangmen for not helping enough. Chris Avery: Both teams having problems here tonight, yeah?Both teams continue their problems as the show fades to our commercial breaks.

A Havoc Giant Tag! Eric Steel, Neo, "Ill Jill Park", Johnny Dangerously vs. John Blade, Darren Marsh, Big Bubba, Mason Jones Adilene Floyd: The following match is a TORNADO 8-MAN TAG TEAM MATCH...Billy: It’s time for yet another taste of a little HAVOC MADNESSBilly’s voice takes over as Clash returns from commercial, John Blade in the middle of making his way to the ring as Darren Marsh, Big Bubba and Mason Jones already stand in it, discussing strategies. Chris Avery: This is a great warmup for all of these talents, as in two weeks they will get to take part in their first ever Havoc Rumbles. It’s a chaos unlike anything else.Billy: Certainly, getting used to a ring with 8 people in it? Even that’s a drop in the bucket. There could be 40 people in the ring at one TIME at Havoc!Blade has the crowd HYPED UP as he joined his team in the corner. Billy: Big Match John Blade, he’s a favorite to win the Havoc Rumble!Chris Avery: Where’d you read that?Billy: Hustler Magazine.“City” By Hollywood Undead blares from the P.A. system as “The Golden Prophecy” Eric Steel makes his way to the ring. Adilene Floyd: And their opponents! First, from Toronto Canada, EERRIIICCC STEEEEEEELBilly: Here comes Eric Steel! He looked GREAT in his debut last week on Clash, picking up the win over Mason Jones, who he stands across the ring from again here tonight.Steel stands alone in the opposing corner. His music cuts out and immediately, Johnny Dangerously appears at the top of the entrance ramp, some generic AW-produced music starting to play for him. He makes his way to the ring, thumbs in his suspenders. Adilene Floyd: Next, hailing from the constant travel between New York City and Las Vegas...he is JOOOOOOHNNY DAAAANGEROUSLYYY!Chris Avery: Johnny Dangerously fell JUST short last week in a Television Championship opportunity. But it says somethin’ that he earned that spot.Billy: He’s making waves, Chris! Let’s see how he does in THIS kind of environment, though.“Therefore I am” begins to play through the PA system and Jill Park struts onto the ramp in a white jacket and thick white aviator sunglasses. She stops in the center of the stage as golden pyro consumes her for a moment. As it dissipates, she walks down to the ring, the crowd BOOING with passion, and she slides into the ring. Adilene Floyd: And their next partner, from Venice Beach, California, she is “IIIILLLL” JIIIILL PAAAARK!Jill stands in the center of the ring and slowly and sensually removes the jacket, tossing it in the nearest corner. Billy: MAJOR heat with the crowd, already, my gosh.Chris Avery: Have you seen her yet? She is a total bi-...she’s unlikeable, Billy, she’s unlikeable.Billy: Talk about making waves, Jill Park has ventures going on inside AND OUTside of the AW ring. She may have lost last week in that triple threat match to Neo, but she’s not to be messed with, that much is already clear.“Why Do I Love You So” by Johnny Tillotson plays as Neo enters with a look of indifference on his face as he walks down the ramp, mostly ignoring the fans who aren’t sure how to interact with him. He takes the steps up to the apron and steps through the middle rope, rocking his head from side to side and mouthing some words to himself, loosely joining his teammates in the corner. Adilene Floyd: And the final partner, from Syracuse, New York...he is “The Cleaner” NEEEEEOOOO!Billy: Man...that music.Chris Avery: True diner classic, Billy. This guy’s entrance music is romantic, but that’s where the romanticism stops with Neo.Billy: He’s on a tear to start his AW career, picking up multiple wins, all the while...kinda creeping everyone out. “The Cleaner” has a clean record so far here.The bell rings as all 8 talents look across the ring at each other from opposite corners, forming like 2 gangs about to go to war. The ref reminds them that all combatants are legal, and Darren Marsh steps to the middle of the ring as if it were a dance circle, waving on competition. Jill Park steps forward and gets in Darren’s face, the size mis-match hilariously evident. Jill looks up at him, talking smack, before HITTING a smack across Marsh’s face. The officer shakes it off with a smirk, but Jill swings again, this time with a closed fist that ROCKS Officer Marsh. She hits him with a few quick lifting knees to the large gut before grabbing him by his head and running him over to the ropes, sending his weight over the top rope and to the floor below. She dusts her hands off as she mouths ‘elimination’. Billy: Message sent immediately here by the newcomer Jill Park! If this were the Rumble? Darren Marsh’s night would be over!Jill returns to the corner, as simultaneously Johnny Dangerously and Big Bubba now step to the center of the ring. The two go for a collar and elbow tie up, Johnny wrenching the arm of Bubba immediately and hitting quick strikes to the rotator cuff. He fires a few elbows in there for good measure when, arm ringer still held, he pulls the weight of Big Bubba towards himself and...HURLS HIM towards the ropes, Bubba tumbling up and over! Billy: Another elimination!!Chris Avery: No, stop Billy, you’re gonna confuse everyone at home. Folks, this is NOT a battle royal.Billy: Statements, Chris. It’s all about the statements. Now look! Eric Steel and Mason Jones!Steel and Jones start firing rights and lefts at each other, both now in the center of the ring. Neo stands deathly still, watching from the corner, as John Blade roots Mason Jones on from the other corner. Rights and lefts are exchanged furiously between the two fit competitors, but Steel starts to get the upper hand. Right hands have him rocked as he stumbles backwards and with a clothesline Steel sends JONES over the top rope, almost landing on top of Big Bubba! Billy: Elimination!!Chris Avery: STOP THAT!Neo now stands in the middle of the ring. His own teammates clear as John Blade hypes up the moment, flexing and waving to the crowd. The two go nose to nose. Even Blade’s teammates, who all stand outside the ring, stay there to watch. John Blade waves a hand in front of his own face, as if to say…”it’s getting hot in here, I need to cool off”. Neo is still. So still. Until John Blade winds back a fist to swing! Neo grabs him from under the arm pit and hoists him towards the ropes with a hip toss that sends BIG MATCH JOHN over the top rope. Blade tumbles but lands on the apron, standing tall and waving a finger wag at Neo, who then drills him in the chin with a right hook that sends Blade to the floor below. Billy: Elimi- I mean, look at the team of these newcomers standing tall!On cue, however, the rest of the team slides into the ring and all hell breaks loose. Fists start flying as Jill Park throws down with Darren Marsh, connecting with shots before taking the officer down with a hurricanrana. Neo has slithered outside the ring, taking it to John Blade outside the ring. He hits forearm shots to the back before shoving Blade into the steel steps. Johnny Dangerously takes a big 360 lariat from Mason Jones, who taunts over him with a few hip thrusts...before getting grabbed from behind by Eric Steel, getting yanked backwards with a release German Suplex! Chris Avery: This is a fantastic warmup for all of these guys and gals. In the Rumble, it’s just as important to strategically maneuver around the ring and pick your spots as it is to always be on the attack.Billy: It’s like walking through the crowded streets of New York City and managing not to drop your hot dog.Chris Avery: ...Absolutely, Billy, lock in that metaphor. We’ll use that in the hype video.The chaos continues in the ring, bodies colliding. Eric Steel connects with a beautiful front dropkick to the chest of Darren Marsh, using that momentum to moonsault backwards right onto Mason Jones. As everyone scuffles, Jill Park has quietly climbed her way to the top rope, perched like a crow on a wire. She sees a moment coming, as Darren Marsh and Big Bubba both come together to reinforce each other...they turn and get surprised by a 135 pound crossbody that has enough force to bring both officers down despite the late attempts to catch her. That’s not all, as Jill Park hits the canvas, rolls back over and gets a mount on top of Darren Marsh, driving forearms into his forehead! Billy: Jill Park is VICIOUS! She’s like a pitbull in there.Chris Avery: Gotta stop using that breed in that context, Billy. She’s like a rabid dog. It ain’t gotta be a pitbull.Billy: JILL PARK’S LIKE A RABID DOG IN THERE.Outside the ring, Neo has picked John Blade APART, finally rolling the heavily muscled carcass back into the ring. In the ring, Johnny Dangerously has Mason Jones by the throat, lifting him up and slamming him with The Sell Off chokeslam! Mason rolls out of the ring, Johnny following to ensure he stays out of the action. Eric Steel awaits the slowly standing Big Bubba, and when the big man stands and turns around...STEEL CUTTER by Eric Steel! Billy: Oh boy, Chris, they’re clearing house again! Mason’s down! Bubba’s down!Steel drags Big Bubba out of the ring to continue an assault. This leaves 4 bodies in the ring now as the commotion things out with one team being dominant. Neo stands calmly in the corner as Jill Park is talking even MORE trash to both John Blade and Darren Marsh, even hurling words in Neo’s direction despite their being on the same team. Neo finally takes his eyes off of John Blade, and instead eyes Officer Darren Marsh, who is getting to his feet. Billy: Neo is truly a predator, isn’t he? Just waiting for his spot like a smart hunter.Neo waits...and moves forward slowly to take his moment, dragging Darren Marsh right back down to the mat and locking in FADING LIGHTS, an arm-trapped crossface! Darren Marsh YELLS in pain. His hands waves out, not tapping, as he tries to call out for any of his teammates to help him. Jill watches for just a moment before turning her attention to John Blade, helping him up to his feet. She takes a step back and lifts a slapping Superkick into his chin! Billy: Uh oh! Snowflake Swatter to John Blade!Blade stumbles backwards into the ropes, slowly rebounding back towards Jill, who kicks him low, locks the head inbetween her knees and brings him to the mat with HOT GIRL SUMMER! Darren Marsh is still calling out for help, Neo simply chilling while hanging on, watching Jill Park out of the side of his eye. Content. Jill rolls John Blade over and pins him, in the perfect manner to maintain eye contact with Neo as they both assume victory… 1… 2… 3…!!! Jill Park pins John Blade! Billy: It’s over!! Ill Jill makes the pinfall with her team, while Neo just contently keeps Marsh in that Fading Lights lock!Darren Marsh starts tapping out on the canvas, not that it matters, as Billie Eilish is already playing. The ref goes to raise hands, but needs to take an extra few moments to convince Neo to let go of the hold. Adilene Floyd: Here are your winners! The team of Johnny Dangerously, Eric Steel, Jill Park and Neo!Billy: I’ll say it one more time, STATEMENTS MADE. These four looked DOMINANT here tonight. They are READY to make waves in that Havoc Rumble, as if we needed any more adjusting to the odds.Chris Avery: The Rumble is anybody’s game, Billy! And these 4 ALL have the right mindset to know that in just a couple weeks, they could become a king or queen amongst AW with a Havoc win.In the ring, Jill accepts the hand raise from the ref for a moment before yanking her wrist away and telling him not to touch her. Dangerously and Steel have re-entered the ring and have their fists in the air. Neo, meanwhile, has already made his way up the entrance ramp and to the back. Billy: What an amazing crop of talent we have here!Chris Avery: Someone make a poster of that pinfall, submission combo between Jill Park and Neo. I’d buy that ish in a second.

Dionysus Got Something To Say
"Bazelgeuse" explodes throughout the arena as the action continues on Clash. The crowd cheers as Dionysus steps out from backstage, already dressed in his ring gear and microphone in hand. Chris Avery: Welcome back to Monday Night Clash and Billy, we're about to hear from the man who finally got his wish.Billy: That's right! After weeks of begging, pleading and demanding-Chris Avery: Not to mention making an ass out of himself.Billy: Right, that too. Anyway, he's finally getting his shot for the Number One spot in the Havoc Rumble!Chris Avery: But to get that, he'll need to defeat rising star Rampage, and I don't think he can do it, do you?Dionysus rolled into the ring, all smiles to the crowd. Dionysus: YOU ALL HAVING A GOOD TIME TONIGHT?!The crowd cheered YES in approval. Dionysus: I'm having a great night, and you know why? Because Pasternak finally gave the opportunity I've been waiting for! No hard feelings about any of the mean words I've said, big guy; just wanting to get under your skin. Folks, we are two weeks away from the Havoc Rumble, and with the list of people we have now, plus whoever else is going to show up, I for one am fired up this year! ...Or at least, I will be, once I beat Rampage tonight.The crowd booed at the mention of Rampage, chanting "RAMPAGE SUCKS! RAMPAGE SUCKS!" Dionysus: No no, don't say he sucks guys. Rampage is only doing what I've done these last two months; demanded an opportunity. I, for one, won't fault a guy for wanting to make a name for themselves here on Action Wrestling. I WILL, however, fault them for thinking getting in my way is the right way to go about it. See, my favorite thing about Rampage is that he sees things very clear cut, without any nuance. He's sitting back there thinking I've only begged to just be handed the spot, when I've also asked to make a challenge out of it. Granted, I didn't say "winner gets the spot," but hey, that's apparently the level of influence I have around here, doesn't it? And another thing-Suddenly, "Mainlining Murder" by Lars Frederiksen hits on the PA, and Downfall comes walking out onto the stage, wearing his DIY vest and camo pants. Downfall is looking down at the ring with a lot of intensity, and yet an undefinable emotion on his face. Sadness? Regrets? It's not clear, but his mouth firms into a line of determination as he lifts a mic up to his lips. Downfall: Dionysus, this is the last Clash before Havoc, so I need to be the one coming out here and saying this to you. Your match with Rampage tonight is your last shot at everything you've been asking for since Battlegrounds... you win this one match and you're the first entry in Havoc. Are you SURE you know what you're doing? Are you going out there to throw your shot away for nothing?Dionysus looks up the ramp at his old adversary, with a look that just screams "This motherfucker." He chuckles, and shakes his head. Dionysus: So wait a minute; you end up going to bat for me with Pasternak, and NOW you're wondering if I'm sure I know what I'm doing? What, you think I can't do this or something?As he's speaking, Downfall is coming down the ramp, until he's at the foot of the ring. Downfall: I'm not -- doubting if you can beat Rampage, I'm asking you if this whole endeavor is something you've prepared yourself for. Not just getting through Rampage, but what comes after. Are you prepared to fight for your spot in Havoc. Are you prepared to start the entire match and face what could be up to 30 men in an effort to go to the main event of Evolution and face Ash Blake for the World Championship. Are you ready to fight for everything and prove your worth in front of the entire locker room.Dionysus: ...No, Downfall. No, I'm not ready to start at number one, go through 30, 40, 50, maybe even 60 men and women to have a chance to headline Evolution and face Ash Blake for the World Championship. The thought hadn't crossed my mind. Thank you, once again, for coming out here and telling me all this. Let me think about it quick.Dionysus gave a faux thinking man's pose. Then- Dionysus: OF COURSE I'VE FUCKING THOUGHT ABOUT IT!!! What do you think has been on my mind these last few weeks?! Of course I'm not ready for that. But that's just it; no one ever is ready for the reality of it. No one can confidently state they know exactly what it feels like to come out at number one, outlast everyone else in the ring, and stand tall, knowing what they did is nothing short of herculean. You'd think, in the entire history of Action Wrestling, short as it has been, one person would have been able to do it, right? Camila Gonzalez couldn't do it. Dandy DiVito couldn't do it. Even Corey Black, a bonafide living legend in the industry, wasn't able to do it. Is it because they didn't want it? Of course not; everyone in this match wants to win it. But what's important, is knowing and understanding that in the number one spot, you are almost guaranteed to lose. You'll get exhausted. You'll keep trying to throw people over the rope and get frustrated when they stay around. Hell, you might even need to carry on in the match with an injury. For years, it has been one of the least desired positions to get in this match. And yet, I want it. Why? I know full well I might lose. It comes with the spot. So there's no expectation for me to even succeed. And that, Daniel, THAT is when miracles can happen. That's when a guy like me could run the tables, knowing he doesn't have a prayer, and shock the world with the big W at the end. Believe me when I tell you, I completely understand what I'm getting myself into. I'm putting my all into this match, regardless of where I end up.Downfall has gotten in the ring, and now stands in front of Dionysus, showing the same level of fire in his soul. Downfall: I do understand, because if you're going to be the first entrant, I'm going to be right there as the second.The crowd reacts with shock as Downfall lays down his defiant, determined ultimatum. Downfall stares intensely at Dion. Downfall: You know and I know you've been working hard for this. And you know and I know, we hate each other, but... god dammit, Dion... Fighting you made me reach deep down inside of myself and be a me I haven't been in ten years. There is nobody -- NOBODY, who has shown more fire and motivation and will to win this shit than you and me. So if it starts with the two of us, I'll be right there on your heels until we're the last two left.Dionysus: If that's the case, then only one of us can be the last man in the ring.Downfall: I know that. And I know anything can happen. But I'm telling you right now, once you get through to Havoc, you're going to be in the ring with me every step of the way. And when the time comes and it's down to the finals, when you're eliminated, and the winner goes on to claim their title shot at Evolution... I'm telling you, it's going to be me that's throwing you over the ropes.Dionysus: Man, its almost like you took the exact words out of my mouth.Downfall smiles wickedly. Downfall: May the best man win, then.Downfall extends his hand. A gentlemen's agreement. Dionysus looks at the offered handshake, and the crowd is super loud with a split reaction. Dionysus hesitates for just a second, calculating all of the history that's gone down between him and Downfall since the summer of 2020... but then he shakes Downfall's hand. Downfall grins, and nods his head. But then, there's a change in his expression to one of cold, ruthless hunger, and he boots Dionysus in the gut. He lifts Dionysus up onto his shoulders, attempting a Godkiller. The crowd is shocked. Dionysus, however, grips the top rope to block it. He elbows his way off and kicks his legs, falling down behind Downfall's back. Then, Dionysus reaches under Downfall, tipping him up and over the top rope, sending Downfall crashing to the floor! Chris Avery: Dionysus, giving Downfall a preview of Havoc!!Downfall sits up on the outside, looking up into the ring. Dionysus is feeding off the crowd, holding his hands up and shouting "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!?!". Downfall, angrily gets to his feet. But then he smiles, and nods his head at Dionysus. Downfall can be seen to be mouthing the words "Now you're ready... and next time, so will I" Chris Avery: Downfall and Dionysus are both looking to have their moment in Havoc. And Downfall tonight, was trying to make sure that Dionysus was getting himself into, the entire field that Dionysus is going to have to go through, while making it clear that he is going to be the one that throws Dion out.Billy: These two men are going to lay it all on the line at Havoc, bah gawd!!

Hilbert Horton V Segment
Static takes over the Monday Night Clash feed, followed by a technical difficulties graphic. Then, an ornate, golden title card appears, with the text: “From The Desk Of Hilbert Horton V.” Menacing orchestral music begins to play as we cut to a camera feed. A man with a burly muscular frame, cloaked in a black coat and top hat sits with his back to the camera. He’s staring out a large glass window with a remarkable view of London, England. He slowly turns around in the chair, to reveal the smug, moustachioed face of Hilbert Horton V. A skinny, nervous man quickly runs into frame to stand next to HIlbert, his flunky Niles. Hilbert looks over at him, annoyed. Hilbert: Are we live?Niles: Uh, yes sir. We’ve been live for the last minute.Blast Hilbert looks back toward the camera and steeples his fingers Hilbert: Hahahah yes, hello Action Wrestling, it is I, Hilbert Horton the Fifth! My last stay here was short, evil never rests and all. I had other schemes to attend to, I’m sure you understand. But now, my schedule is free, and I am ready to unleash vile villainy on Action once again! In fact, I am broadcasting to you now from the Horton Industries Airship, high above the city of London. We are preparing for the trip across the Atlantic. But you won’t have to wait long. Niles, when will we arrive?
Hmm, well accounting for wind delay, refueling stops, et cetera… May 31st.Hilbert’s face goes red. He stands up and backhands Niles, sending him staggering across the room. Hilbert: YOU BLASTED IMBECILE! MUST I ENACT EVERY ASPECT OF MY EVIL PLOTS ALONE?!? WE MUST ARRIVE IN CHICAGO BY MAY 30TH! TELL THE CREW TO WORK DOUBLE TIME, OR THEY WILL REGRET CROSSING THE GREATEST VILLAIN THIS SIDE OF THE ATLANTIC! GO!Niles shakes off the slap, then quickly nods and scurries off screen. Hilbert sighs, then sits down and regains his composure. Hilbert: Yes, I will be returning to Action in the grandest way possible: By entering the Havoc Rumble! It will be a grand occasion, a way to reacquaint you silly common folk with the Dashing Do-Badder. I will humble the plethora of competitors vying for a shot at the world title at Evolution IV. Many backs will be broken, and I will walk out with my head high, having done the Horton name proud! HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!Hilbert stands and outstretches his arms as he lets loose a maniacal laugh. He stays in the pose for a while, then sheepishly puts his arms down and looks at the camera. Hilbert: NILES! COME TURN THIS BLASTED THING OFF!

Donovan Rayne vs. Claire Hawkins(c) Adilene Floyd: The following is scheduled for ONE FALL and it is for the Action Wrestling Television Championship! Introducing first, he weighs in at 215 lbs... "THE STAND OUT"... DONOVAN RAYNE!!The house lights dim down, and a single solitary spotlight shines on the entrance way. Suddenly, the sounds of Machine Gun Kelly's "LOCO” hit over the speakers in the arena. The crowd’s silence instantly turns to jeers. From behind the curtain emerges The Stand Out Donovan Rayne. As he stands firmly into the spotlight, his head is looking down. Suddenly, the vivacious Delta Rayne walks out from behind the curtain and stands at her brother’s side. A devious smirk on her face, she quickly spins around in a complete three sixty. Then, as she slowly raises her right arm, Donovan raises his head with a confident smirk on his face. Putting her hands on the collar of his leather jacket, he pops it as the fans boo him. With a confident swagger, the Rayne’s start to walk down towards the ring. With her hands firmly on her hips, Delta can be seen jaw-jacking the fans that are near the aisle way. While she does this, Donovan laughs as his sister verbally eviscerates the fans. As the two make their way to the ringside area, Delta stops walking. Donovan continues to the ring, and climbs up onto the apron of the ring. With the fans continuing their parade of boos, Donovan faces his back to the ring. With his arms now raised into the air, he throws up two peace signs, almost as an non-acknowledgement of the hatred of the fans. The Provocateur then makes her way over to the stairs, and makes her way up to the apron. The Stand Out enters the ring and stands next to the rope. Placing his foot on the bottom rope, and pulling the middle rope up, he lets his sister enter the ring. Chris Avery: Rayne only has a few matches under his belt in AW, but he wants his star to rise, and tonight he's taking on one of the greatest Television Champs in our history!Billy: That's great and all... but his sister is out here, and I like to look at her! She purrttyy.Chris Avery: ...So, nothing about Rayne's technical prowess or athletic ability?Billy: Guhh, I can almost catch a whiff of her perfume on the wind...Adilene Floyd: And his opponent... weighing in at 145 lbs... she is the AW Television Champion... "THE METAL WITCH"... CLAIRE HAWKINS!!As the world falls; wider grows disaster's maw Desperate the thralls call; thee three crows caw As those words faded to black, a shrill Banshee’s Wail rang out through the stadium and everything went as dark as it possibly could. A moment later, the beginnings of Orbit Culture’s Nensha began to play; a light layer of smoke appeared upon the stage as the lights began to frantically flash in sync with the music. As the music increased in pace, so did the flashing of the lights; a silhouette of a person appearing upon the stage, hunched forward. PICK UP THE BONES! Abruptly, the lights return to normal in time to see the person lean backward and release a deep guttural scream upwards to the heavens from parted lips painted black. Upon finishing the guttural growl, the person titled their head down and fixated their fiery crimson gaze upon the ring; the Action Wrestling crowd letting out a sizable pop. With skin as pale as porcelain and clearly dressed to compete within the squared circle, the person was none other than the Witch of Action Wrestling; Claire Hawkins! Once she reached the ringside area Claire paused for a moment to look at the cameraman that had dared to get close enough to get a good shot of her face. With a vicious snarl, Claire let out another one of those screams and forced the cameraman to quickly backpedal. Feeling pleased with herself, Claire made her way over to the steps and into the ring. Once she was in the ring she walked to the side of the ring where the hard camera was and stepped onto the second rope, leaned forward a little to keep her balance, and held her arms up while she held up in the "Devil Horns" gesture as pyro shot up from the ring posts. All the while bellowing out that same savage, guttural scream. Chris Avery: Love her or hate her, the Metal Witch has proven herself with that TV title, and has really put forth an effort to stake her claim as the greatest competitor in a very competitive division.Rayne and Hawkins circle each other before locking up center ring where each competitor jockey's for position before Donovan Rayne latches on a side head lock on Hawkins. Rayne wrenches down on the side head lock before Hawkins lays in a forearm to the midsection of Rayne before backing him up against the ropes. She shoots Rayne across the ring with an Irish whip. Rayne bounces off the ropes, and then he runs over Hawkins with a running shoulder block that sends Hawkins to the mat. Rayne bounces of the ropes, Hawkins rolls over to her chest causing Rayne to leap over Hawkins as he bouncing off the near side, Hawkins quickly springs to her feet where she catches Rayne with a spinning heel kick knocking Rayne to the mat. Hawkins nips up to a vertical base before running towards the ropes, where she connects with an arm drag that sends Rayne flying, before running off the ropes yet again, coming down with a leg drop across the throat of Rayne before quickly looking to gain the pinfall. The referee: One... kickout Chris Avery: Hawkins really letting the throttle down in the opening moments!Rayne shoots a shoulder up off the mat. Hawkins wastes no time in locking in a rear chin lock on Rayne. The referee is in prime position for the submission yet Rayne refuses to surrender as he starts working his way to his knees, then to his feet with Hawkins holding on. Rayne attempts a side suplex, only to have Hawkins perform a flip in midair. Hawkins lands on her feet before connecting with a dropkick to the back of Rayne which sends him falling throat first across the middle rope. Hawkins then aggressively puts a knee against the shoulder blades and hauls back on the top rope with all of her might, choking Rayne on the rope. The referee confronts the Metal Witch, warning her of a disqualification. Hawkins shrieks at him and keeps choking Rayne, until the referee starts counting her out. Hawkins raises her hands in a show of compliance, letting go of the hold. Billy: I have to say it just this one time, Avery; Hawkins gives me a fear boner.Chris Avery: You good now? You feel better letting that one out? Yeah?The crowd responds with a heavy mixed reaction as Claire Hawkins paces around the ring, doing her Metal Witch act and taunting Rayne. Rayne's sister Delta is on the outside, shouting at Donovan to get up. Hawkins reaches down to lift Donovan Rayne up... but he reverses with a swinging neckbreaker. Rayne now nips up to a vertical base, and turns around to hold his arms up arrogantly to the crowd. Rayne then runs to the ropes and goes for an Asai moonsault. Hawkins rolls out of the way, yet Rayne lands on his feet. Hawkins gets to her feet where she's met with a headlock take over by Rayne forcing Hawkins's shoulders to the mat. The referee: One... Two... Hawkins escapes the near fall by shifting her weight and rolling Rayne over so that his shoulders are on the mat. The referee: One... Two... Rayne kicks out, which causes the weight to shift back into the side headlock. Hawkins slowly starts working her way to her feet with Rayne still in control with the headlock. Hawkins backs him up against the ropes, pounding on his sweetbreads with elbow shots, before sending him across the ring. Rayne bounces off the ropes ducking under a clothesline attempt by Hawkins before countering with a crucifix pinfall attempt. The referee: One... Two... Kickout. Hawkins kicks out. The crowd reacts to the athletic stalemate between Hawkins and Rayne as they both pull themselves to their feet at the same time. Chris Avery: You talk about a back and forth opening minutes of this contest!Billy: This match is well on it's way to "Shitfire" status!!Rayne and Hawkins circle each other warily, before locking up center ring. Both competitors try to push each other down for several moments, before Rayne drives a knee to the midsection of Hawkins. He follows up with a knife edge chop across the chest which sends Hawkins back into a neutral corner. Rayne beats Hawkins into the corner with further chops and a well-placed boot. Rayne comes forward leveling Hawkins with a running clothesline before shooting Hawkins across the ring with an irish whip into the opposite buckles. Rayne charges across the ring delivering a running knee to the jaw of Hawkins which is followed up with a running bulldog. The crowd pops as the combination move is hit. Rayne rolls Hawkins over making a cover hooking the nearest leg. The referee: One... Two... Kickout. Hawkins shoots a shoulder up off the mat. Rayne pulls Hawkins up by the hair. He hammers her with a forearm smash to the jaw that sends Hawkins spilling out to the ring apron. Hawkins pulls herself to her feet as Rayne comes forward looking to drive a shoulder block into the midsection, however, Hawkins manages to get her right knee up; driving it into Rayne's face. Rayne stumbles out towards the center of the ring. Hawkins uses this as a opportune time to plant Rayne with a slingshot DDT! Hawkins reaches her feet where she follows up by running to the ropes and hopping up, coming back off and taking a rising, disoriented Rayne down with a Whisper in the Wind-like senton. Hawkins tops Rayne looking to retain her title. Chris Avery: Hawkins with the Counter Spell!! She holds on to the leg!!The referee: One... Two... Th- Kickout. Rayne shoots a shoulder up off the mat. The crowd gives an enthusiastic response. After a few moments to recuperate some expended energy, Hawkins starts working her way to her feet. She picks Rayne up off the mat, before driving him back into the corner. She starts laying in several shoulder blocks to the midsection of Rayne. Finally, hoisting him up to the top turnbuckle, before lacing him across the chest with an open hand chop across the chest before climbing up to the middle rope followed by the top before peeling off a hurricanrana from the top rope. Hawkins quickly manages to make the cover hooking the nearest leg. The referee: One... Two... Th - Kickout Billy: The falls been coming closer and closer, and you can feel the assholes pucker off every person in this building!Chris Avery: I - ...WHAT??Frustrated, Claire shoots a warning look to the referee. She grits her teeth and pulls herself to her knees, then she picks Rayne up before shooting him into a corner. Hawkins charges forward looking to deliver a Helluva kick. The crowd roars as Rayne catches Hawkins in midair before depositing her over the top rope and out to the floor from out of nowhere. Chris Avery: What a counter by Rayne! Hawkins takes a nasty fall out to the floor!Putting aside all of his dizziness, Rayne climbs the turnbuckles from inside the ring! The crowd gets louder and louder with anticipation as we see Hawkins begin to work her way to her feet with the assistance of the security railing before staggering towards the ring only to have Donovan Rayne leap off the top rope with an awesome shooting star, landing on top of Hawkins. Both Rayne and Hawkins are down and out on the floor, as the referee isn't sure whether to let the match continue. Several seconds pass before it's Rayne who starts pushing his way to his feet. He reaches down picking Hawkins up off the mat before taking her around the ring towards the announcers table. Rayne drives Hawkins face first off the announcers table, and Hawkins slumps off, barely able to stand and using the table to hold on. Rayne sends Hawkins back into the ring under the bottom rope. Rayne makes his way to the ring apron before climbing up to the top turnbuckle. In the ring Hawkins starts pushing herself up off the mat to a vertical base. Rayne sets sail with a spinning round house kick to perfection. Rayne scurries into the cover hooking the closest leg of Hawkins. The referee: One... Two... Thr - Kickout. Billy: We're talking inches, inches away from crowning a new Television Champion!Chris Avery: Donovan Rayne is really showing me something tonight!Rayne quickly rolls Hawkins over before applying a Koji clutch. The referee is in prime position for the submission as he asks Hawkins to surrender. Hawkins shakes off the attempt which causes Rayne to pull his leg underneath her chin with both arms and apply more pressure. Chris Avery: Hawkins's gotta do something and quick!Several long seconds tick by with Claire in the hold, and her arms are starting to flail limply in the air. Hawkins knows she's in trouble, she exerts a spike of energy to use her legs to flip herself over, stacking Rayne's shoulders to the mat. The referee: One... Two... Thr- Rayne's forced to release the hold to save himself from suffering a loss. After Rayne lets go, Hawkins is laid out on the mat, taking in big, gasping lungfuls of air into her abused windpipe and trying to recover some of her spent energy. Rayne is also trying to push himself back to all fours, having tightened every muscle he could to keep the Koji clutch locked on. At length, both competitors on either side of the ring make their way up to all fours, then to their feet. Both get up at the same time. They spot each other on the other end of the ring, and then they charge the field. They take each other down with a double clothesline. Hawkins and Rayne lay on the mat as the referee checks on both of them. Finally, the referee starts counting. 1... 2... 3... 4... Both parties start to stir... 5... Rayne starts pushing his way up as his sister bangs on the mat and yells his name... 6... Claire starts rolling to all fours... 7... 8... Both parties reach their feet. They stand, rocky, but ready to throw hands, Rayne landing a hard right hand to Hawkins knocking her back several feet. Hawkins comes right back with a hard forearm smash to the face of Rayne rocking him back several feet. Rayne comes back with a right, making the exhausted Hawkins back up a step, and Hawkins comes back with a right! Then another right! Hawkins starts firing up! Hawkins bounces off the ropes looking to take advantage only to run into a powerslam by Rayne. Rayne quickly executes the cover driving his forearm across the face and nose of Hawkins. The referee: One... Two... Thr- Kickout! Rayne rolls off Hawkins to his chest where he measures her for a possible Heavy Rayne attempt. Hawkins starts rolling over to her chest where she begins pushing her way to a vertical base. Once standing Rayne uncoils looking to deliver the Heavy Rayne! Hawkins counters by kicking her legs, falling down behind his back. She shoves Rayne into the ropes, Rayne bounces off the ropes into the Touch of Evil wind-up kick that sends Rayne pinwheeling back, stumbling around in a dazed two step around the ring. Hawkins then comes in, grabbing the dazed Rayne and nailing a cut-throat neckbreaker in the center of the ring! Hawkins quickly makes the cover hooking the closest leg! Chris Avery: Touch of Evil, and the Spiritbreaker! Claire in on it!!The referee and crowd: One... Two... Thre - Kickout! Rayne throws a shoulder up off the mat before the fatal count of three! Chris Avery: We knew that this one was going to be physically intense, we knew it was going to be highly competitive... and thus far we haven't been disappointed!Billy: It's the last Clash before Havoc, baby, everyone is stepping their game up!!Hawkins begins to make her way to her feet. She reaches down picking Rayne up off the mat before taking a front face lock on Rayne before backing up to a neutral corner. She hops up on the middle rope before peeling off a vicious tornado DDT! The impact spikes Rayne head first on the mat and sends him rolling out to the floor. Hawkins measures Rayne from inside the ring, she waits patiently for Rayne to start working his way to his feet before she bounces off the opposite side of the ring, she gains more speed before diving through the ropes with a suicide dive on to Rayne which sends him crashing back first into the security railing while Hawkins lands on her feet. Hawkins quickly lays in a stiff chop across Rayne's exposed chest before taking him and driving him head first into the ring steps! The crowd pops as Hawkins takes excess camera cord from the crowd before wrapping it around the throat of Rayne! Rayne drops to one knee before Hawkins releases her grip from the cord. Hawkins yanks Rayne up by the hair, and takes a moment to talk some trash to him. Hawkins aggressively drive him head-first into the ring apron. Rayne falls, and is barely able to keep himself up using the apron. Claire rolls him under the bottom rope. Hawkins hops up on the ring apron, measuring Rayne once again as he starts working his way to his feet. Hawkins slingshots herself over the top rope connecting with a slingshot DDT! The crowd roars as Hawkins looks for the cover!! The referee and crowd: One... Two... Thre- Kickout! Rayne escapes to a thunderous pop from the crowd which translates into a thunderous chant of "THIS IS AWESOME" directed towards the superstars in the ring. Hawkins is the first to her feet where she signals for the Black Veil. Hawkins reaches down picking Rayne up off the mat before locking him in position to deliver the Black Veil, Rayne spins out of it and counters into a T-bone suplex The crowd roars as both Rayne and Hawkins once again lay on the mat, neither participant moving. Chris Avery: What a counter by Donovan Rayne from out of nowhere!Rayne slowly starts to stir as he manages to roll Hawkins over where he's able to execute a lateral press! The referee and crowd: One... Two... Thre - Kickout! Hawkins shoots her shoulder up off the mat, to the amazement of everyone at ringside. Rayne looks flabbergasted, and he looks up at the referee, asking if that was three. The referee assures him Claire kicked out. Annoyed, Rayne starts slowly working his way up. He reaches down picking Hawkins up off the mat before taking her back into the ropes. Rayne shoots Hawkins across the ring, Hawkins bounces off the ropes into a Samoan drop by Rayne. The crowd comes alive as Rayne reaches his feet where he goes into a corner. He slips a bit getting to the top rope, fatigue making his ascent not as quick as it could have been... but he finally sets himself, and flies off, coming with with a pitch-perfect diving headbutt. The crowd roars as Rayne executes the cover hooking the nearest leg of Hawkins. The referee and crowd: One... Two... Three - Kickout! Donovan is a bit scatterbrained after the concussion special that is the diving headbutt, and he shakes the cobwebs out, looking in disbelief over at Delta, who shouts at him. Donovan looks shell-shocked as he stares down at Hawkins, obviously asking what he needs to do to beat her. Rayne starts pulling himself to one knee. He reaches down to pick Hawkins up, Hawkins manages to counter with an inside cradle. The referee and crowd: One... Two... Three - Kickout! Chris Avery: CLAIRE IS STILL IN THIS!!Rayne kicks out managing to shift the weight and it's Hawkins's shoulders that hit the mat. The referee and the crowd: One... Two... Three - Kickout!

Rayne beats Hawkins to a vertical base where he drives a knee to the midsection of Hawkins. Rayne locks in a front face lock on Hawkins before hoisting her up in the air!

He backs Hawkins up into the ropes before shooting her across the ring, Hawkins bounces off the ropes ducking under a Rayne clothesline where he attempts a springboard clothesline of her own yet Rayne catches Hawkins with a big boot in mid-air. Donovan stumbles backwards, and has to use the ropes to hold himself up. He takes a few deep breaths, before going over to Hawkins. He irish whips Claire into the corner. He gets a head of steam, going for a stinger splash, but Hawkins ducks out of the way. Rayne stops himself, but he does not see Hawkins.

A Cowards Way Out
:: The roar of a 1950s Harley-Davidson Chopper roars through the desert of West Texas. The All-Father opens up the throttle, pushing the bike to it’s limits. A Bedroll is tied to the back of the bike as two one-gallon jugs ride side saddles, tied to each other. The desert was no home to a Nord but for this Maverick, a second home was better than no home at all. The sun reflected off The All-Fathers aviator shades as he rode past the scenic landscape.:: The All-Father lived out here for a year when his wrestling career first started. He had to put himself back to square one mentally if he was going to take the next step in his career because he knew that he would have to chase a mongrel coward to the ends of the Earth. A mongrel Coward who wanted it that way but just did not know how to express it. The Mongrel lacked the finer sense to just come out and say what he wanted. ‘Odin, put me down for good.’ Those words whispered on the wind as he drove through the landscape. That's why he returned, afterall and tried to psych out the All-Father during his matches during this lead up to Havoc. WALTER He wanted death back in 2020. He knew that there was a price to pay for his sins and Odin knew that there was a price that they both had to pay for it. The All-Father gave it to him. Even in 2019, Walter knew what was going to happen. He tried to prolong it, even though he wanted it. He just wasn't man or mongrel enough to face it. The coward framed the All-Father for kidnapping in Something, Louisiana - at the 2019 Clash Awards. That was not enough to derail the All-Father. The Mongrel coward knew it. So, while the All-Father was in jail for kidnapping. The Mongrel coward was out in those streets killing. In the days leading up to the January 6th 2020 Clash, the Mongrel coward killed Gunnar, the All-Fathers' father. A former paratrooper and war veteran. The coward knew he had to seal the deal and those were the cowardice steps that he took. When it all settled, The All-Father was champion but it was the company that decided that it was all too touchy for TV. They rushed the return of FPV and put a fire under him to quickly move on. With Covid-19 looming, decisions were made. Those decisions were wrong. The All-Father does not forget nor forgive such slights. FPV is another who feels that he can come and go as he pleases and interrupt the All-Fathers quest. When the Mongrel came back, he won Havoc and defeated Alex Richards, Odin's former Tag Team Partner and one half of the Enforcers. The Mongrel did to Alex what he could not do to the All-Father. Action Wrestling kept The All-Father busy with Lissie Hope and The Swallowing. They kept that spirit of vengeance alive by further rewarding that Mongrel Coward with a lengthy World Championship run. The All-Father lobbied for singles action. He lobbied for the Mongrel Coward. He was denied. Then as if coincidence itself materialized, The Mongrel vanished again. No doubt, hearing of the The Followings break-up and Odins renewed hunt. Twice denied a fully realized vengeance. That was seven months ago. There will not be a third denial. This is a kill or be killed situation. One or both of them will be destroyed. There are no more ghosts, no more running. The time is now and both men knew that. The only difference is one man is ready and willing to fight the world and the other is a mongrel coward. It has been a year and a half and The All-Father is ready for what Action Wrestling could no longer deny him. Vengeance. The World Championship And that Mongrel Coward. The Mongrel will die a coward's death. This was do or die at Havoc. A company that swept the deeds of a mongrel and the pain of God under the rug. The talent mocked and ridiculed him for it. The All-Father came back to collect on some debts Everyone has a price to pay. There are no innocents. There are no other options. There will be no other outcomes.

Devils Gate vs. Max Daemon, Harvey Marx, Sam Kidsgrove
An eerie hum fills the earholes of the tens of thousands in attendance. The ActionTron5000 lights up with violent and possibly satanic images. The hum morphs into “Ora Pro Nobis Lucifer” by Behemoth and three masked man emerge from the smoke filled stage. Billy: DEVIL'S GATE IS HERE!The lights spookily flicker and start to illuminate the arena as United States Champion Der Metzger staggers out from backstage with his acolytes Dwade and Kuraim following behind. Once they get to the ring, Kuraim slides in while Dwade climbs onto the ring apron. He enters the ring and paces back and forth, while Kuraim stares threateningly at Adilene, who is avoiding them like der schwarze tod. Der Metzger is last to enter the ring. Adilene Floyd: This destructive force... already in the ring… now residing in Castle Rock, Maine… DWADE… KURAIM… DER METZGER... WELCOME TO... DEVIL'S... GATE!!!The fans boo, not because of anything they have done yet, but because they are creepy. Billy: This gon' be a good one!Chris Avery: The unlikely alliance of Kidsgrove, Marx, and Daemon has quite a war ahead of them against these three maniacs.Fog fills the stage and an elaborate light show begins. Anticipation builds before Harvey Marx appears. Adilene Floyd: And their opponents! Introducing first… from Seattle, Washington… weighing in at 380 pounds… HARVEY MARX!Marx wows the crowd with his presence as he heads down the ramp. Billy: That's a biiiig boy!"Dead Bite" by Hollywood Undead blasts out on the arena's speakers. Once the guitar riffs begin to form, Max comes out with a smirk on his face and a pumped up step in his legs. He briefly pauses at the top of the ramp to point a pair of finger guns to his side. As he raises them above his head, white fireworks from the left and black fireworks from the right start to go off behind him. Once they meet in the middle, Max brings both hands down in front of him to fire off one shot which coincides with a huge blast of of white and black fireworks behind him. Adilene Floyd: And next… from Tucson, Arizona… weighing in at 180 pounds… MAX DAEMON!Once that is complete, Max makes his way down the ramp. He ignores the men in the audience trying to touch his greatness, but does acknowledge a few ladies he finds worth his time. Once the descent down the ramp has ended, Max slides under the bottom rope into the ring. He gets to his feet and looks to the hard camera, giving them a quick finger gun shot before getting ready for the fight to come. Chris Avery: Finger guns are still cool?Billy: I s'pose!As the opening riff to “Unity” by Shinedown echoes around the arena. Strobe lights pulse along with the beat. As soon as the drums begin, fire shoots up from the sides of the stage in time with them. Zooey Deschanel, wearing a cute dress and looking like sunshine walks out first, she looks out at all sections of the crowd and nods in time with the music, her face beaming with positive energy. Kidsgrove joins her and puts his arm over her shoulder, bringing her in for a tender kiss. They then start to walk down the ramp, speaking to people in the front row, signing autographs, taking selfies, kissing babies, hi fiving and generally making sure that everyone can get a memento of meeting them. This takes a while. Adilene Floyd: And last but not least… accompanied by Zooey Deschanel… from Staffordshire, United Kingdom… weighing in at 210 pounds… SAM KIDSGROVE!Eventually they make it to the ring area. Kidsgrove jumps to the apron first and lowers the rope for Zooey to get into the ring. When she does, they both immediately go to opposite corners and stand in the middle turnbuckle, posing for the crowd. Kidsgrove doing the “Hey, I know you” or the “Double guns” where Zooey is blowing kisses and waving at people who have their signs or look friendly. They do this again on other turnbuckles and high five each other when they go past. Chris Avery: More finger guns.Deschanel then exits the ring after Kidsgrove again holds the rope for her and proceeds to take selfies and high five people at ringside as Kidsgrove smiles at her, then winks and gets ready for action. Billy: Prob'ly not safe for Miss Zooey to be hangin' 'round while them Devil's Gate boys is out here.Chris Avery: For once… I agree with you, Billy.Harvey Marx offers to start things off, and his partners agree. On the opposite side, Der Metzger decides he's starting. The opening bell sounds and he slaps Dwade on the chest. Billy: Huh?Metzger makes Dwade get in the ring and he points at Marx. Dwade gets in the ring and his master gives him instruction. Dwade charges into a shoulder block from Marx. Dwade cautiously sits up and eats a running boot from Marx. Marx drags Dwade up and sends him to his team's corner, where he tags in Daemon. Marx holds up Dwade's aem and Daemon kicks him in the ribs. Marx goes to the apron. Daemon whips Dwade to a neutral corner and comes in with a running forearm. He nails Dwade with a back driver suplex, then covers him. ONE! TW--NO! Kuraim stomps on the back of Daemon's neck to break the count. He stomps a few times on his back before the referee gets him out of the ring. Daemon gets up holding his neck and he goes to his corner, tagging in Kidsgrove. The fans and Zooey cheer for their man. Kidsgrove comes in hot as Dwade gets to his feet. Kidsgrove takes him down with a clothesline. Then another. He lifts Dwade up for a bodyslam but Dwade gouges his eyes. Dwade goes to his feet and he clubs away at Kidsgrove before pulling him over to the corner of Devil's Gate. Chris Avery: There's the tag to Kuraim, who is presumably the least skilled of the three.Billy: Why ya say that?Chris Avery: From what I've heard… Dwade was trained by Der Metzger and Kuraim… recently got out of prison.Billy: He got a different kinda training if ya know what I mean!Chris Avery: No. Don't. Stop.Kuraim stands Kidsgrove up in the corner and he lays in some gross chops across his chest. Kidsgrove blocks one and he kicks Kuraim away, then he back elbows Dwade, sending the minion off the apron. Metzger gets in the ring and he goes after Kidsgrove, who kicks him away. Marx enters the ring and he clotheslines Metzger from behind. Our champion hits the mat and rolls to the apron. Kuraim goes to Kidsgrove again, only to eat a dropkick from Kidsgrove. By the time Kuraim gets up, Kidsgrove has climbed the ropes… and he nails Kuraim with a blockbuster. Billy: Now's the time, boy! Git on over to yer corner!Kidsgrove slowly makes his way toward his partners… but Dwade grabs ahold of their legs from the outside. Daemon kicks back, catching Dwade right on the jaw. Marx climbs down and he rams Dwade into the guardrail. He then looks up at Daemon and the two share a nod. Daemon dives off the apron and Marx catches him, then twists quickly and launches Daemon into Dwade. Fans: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! Back in the ring, Kuraim and Kidsgrove are trading shots. Kuraim catches him with a gross chop to the throat and Kidsgrove falls back to the corner. Kuraim charges in and Kidsgrove sidesteps, pushing him shoulder first into the ring post. Billy: STUNT DOUBLE!Chris Avery: WATCH OUT!Before he can follow up, Metzger is back in and he hits Kidsgrove from behind with a-- Billy: DEUTSCHEPLEX!!!After planting Kidsgrove on the back of his head, Metzger tries to cover him… but he's not the legal man. Metzger goes back to his corner and he stands Kuraim up in the corner, then he goes to the apron. He tags himself in and he goes after Kidsgrove… only to be met with a clothesline from Marx. The referee scolds him… as he drags Metzger over to their corner. Marx goes to the apron and he calls for Kidsgrove to tag him in. Kidsgrove asks the fans if they want to see Marx squash Metzger and they approve. Chris Avery: There's the tag!Billy: And now both of them giants is in the ring!Chris Avery: You should get your eyes checked, Billy.Marx drags Metzger up and holds him across his chest, then he tags in Daemon. Daemon climbs the ropes in the corner, then with assistance steps up on Marx's shoulders. Marx turns around and Daemon soars off, connecting with a moonsault on Metzger. Billy: SHITFIRE! MOONSAULT OFF THE BIG MAN'S SHOULDERS!Chris Avery: There's the cover!ONE! TWO!! KICKOUT! Daemon is quick to follow up by pulling Metzger up to his knees. Daemon strikes him in the face with a harsh knee. Billy: WATCH OUT!As he sets Metzger up again, Kuraim and Dwade both charge at him from their corner. He ducks their attack and their momentum doesn't halt… forcing them to charge recklessly into Kidsgrove and Marx, causing them to tumble off the apron while the minions crash to the mat. Chris Avery: WHAT A TRAINWRECK!Billy: NOW'S THE TIME! FINISH HIM!!!Daemon hits the ropes and he goes for his signature running knee… but Metzger pulls back and evades the attack. He clobbers the back of Daemon's neck and then hoists him up in an electric chair position… then plants him on the mat with an ushigoroshi. Billy: TODESKLINGE VON NICHTS!Chris Avery: THERE'S THE COVER!ONE! TWO!! THE REF IS PULLED OUT OF THE RING JUST BEFORE THE THREE COUNT!! Billy: ITS NOT OVER!!Daemon rolls to the apron as all hell has broken loose now! Chris Avery: THIS IS CHAOS!!Billy: THERES DESTRUCTION EVERYWHERE, CHRIS! WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?!Metzger is on the outside of the ring brawling with Harvey, Daemon is falling off the apron trying to find a way to brawl back as Sam Kidsgrove is brawling as well! Chris Avery: Dwade and Kuriam are brawling with everyone!!Der Metzger rolls into the ring as the ref is counting and he's up to 7! 8! 9! 10! DING DING DING Billy: WHAT?Chris Avery: THE HELL !?They continue brawling as Daemon and Marx are trying to get the best of Dwade and Kuriam and Kidsgrove are still going at it! Adilene Floyd: Due to count out, the winners of this match.. DEVILS GATE!!Billy: OH COME ON!!Chris Avery: THIS MATCH IS CHAOTIC!! THERES NO WAY!!Der Metzger is handed his United States Championship as Devils Gate continue to brawl Daemon, Kidsgrove and Marx!

Darren Marsh Segment
We see Marsh and Big Bubba walking back towards their locker room. Darren Marsh: Come on, Bubba, lets get dressed and get the hell out of here.Big Bubba: What are we going to do about Evolution now?Darren Marsh: Just because Alexander Pasternak told me we can't be in Havoc rumble doesn't mean our chances to run this place at Evolution are over. We're going to take matters and the law into our own hands.Just then Marsh opens the door to his locker room and both men walk in. The camera follows them into the room. Bubba sits down on a small leather couch as Marsh notices a letter attached to a photograph on his desk next to his bag. Darren Marsh: What is this?!Marsh walks over and reads the letter aloud. Darren Marsh: Well, well, well, Officer Marsh. It appears that we'll have the chance to meet very soon. I have signed a deal with Action Wrestling.

Ramon Segment
Monday Night Clash comes back on air with the live crowd buzzing. Adeliene Floyd is in the ring ready to introduce...someone. Adilene Floyd: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our guest at this time...RAMON!A slight, buzzed confusion comes from the crowd as a man emerges from the curtain to the ring, microphone in hand. As soon as they see him however, the crowd begin to recognize him. Chris Avery: Hey, I remember who he is! That's Ramon, FPV's fling from early last year. But what's he doing here?Billy: No clue Chris. Many had assumed he and Frank had ended things as FPV stopped mentioning him. Perhaps he's here to clear the air on things.As Ramon enters the ring, the crowd, seemingly out of nowhere, begin to chant... Crowd: MOUN-TAIN DEW! MOUN-TAIN DEW! MOUN-TAIN DEW! MOUN-TAIN DEW! This causes Ramon to visibly chuckle before beginning his speech. Ramon: Calm down everybody, calm down. I'm very grateful to your GM, Mr. Pasternak. I hold no contract with Action Wrestling, yet he allowed me a few minutes of airtime to speak on some things that I've been thinking about in regards to one Frank...Patrick...Venable.The crowd hushes up, curious as to what Ramon has to say. Ramon: So last year starting in January, your former World Champion and I engaged in a liaison that quickly grew more and more amorous as the days went on. It was something neither of us expected to happen, but we had the thought in our minds that it could work. And as we made our relationship public, we received a little bit of attention from the wrestling media. Frank was the World Champion, after all.
But as I only found out after the fact, I wasn't ready for a relationship with him. I had been with people before who matched my lifestyle, and I thought Frank would be no different. But oh dear, was it different. In all my years, I have never seen anyone, anyone at all, as dedicated to his chosen industry as Frank was dedicated to this business. Every week, he would come in with that World Title on his shoulder, with one goal in mind. To entertain each and every one of you.Crowd pops for his compliments to Frank. A small FPV chant breaks out in the crowd, Ramon is content to let it die down before continuing. Ramon: And silly old me, I should've known just how deeply Frank takes to this business. To him, retaining that World title was priority number 1. And in my mind, that meant he was beginning to not care about me or my feelings. Around the start of this pandemic, I caught COVID and I caught it hard. Coughing almost all day, trips to the E.R and everything. I was alone, wishing that at the very least if my dear Frank couldn't be with me in person, he could at least send me his love from a telephone or something.
But he wasn't there. He was at Battlefield in 2020, defeating Addy A and Lissie Hope to become the only three time AW World Champion.
And I was furious. I felt so abandoned when I needed him the most. As soon as I had fully recovered from COVID, I met up with him and...well, quite frankly I said things to him that I've since come to regret, and ended our relationship there without giving him a chance to redeem himself. And this past year, that moment has played back so many times in my head that I've gotten sick of thinking about it. We both acted carelessly in our own ways, but what I did to him was unfair in every manner of the word.
Fast forward to after Battlefield this year. As watch as the man I once loved is beaten to a pulp by this hideous Lost Breed and hospitalized for his injuries. I just couldn't take it anymore, I had to see him at least one more time to be with him. So I found his hospital and paid a visit. I fully expected him to tell me to go away and not bother him. But when I walked into that room, ladies and gentlemen, when our eyes connected for the first time in over a year, I saw something happen. I saw a small spark of his old spirit return to him in that hospital room. And though I was only there one day, I've kept up with his exploits since then.
Which...brings me to today.
This week, Frank sent me an email to apologize for how he acted...not too dissimilar to what I'm doing now. And not only did he ask to try and start things over between us, but he also asked me to be with him throughout this crazy journey, to share his successes in the ring with me so I could better understand where he is coming from in AW. And I've thought long and hard about how to respond to that question. So Frank, if you're back there...my answer is-BLAM! OUT OF NOWHERE, RAMON IS ATTACKED BY THE ANTI-ANTIDOTE. Billy: OH FOR FUCK'S SAKE, COME ON!Chris Avery: There was NO need for that. Ladies and gentlemen, The Anti-Antidote is here and we're all the worse off because of it.The crowd SHOWERS the anti-vax conspiracy theorist with boos as he pulverizes Ramon, looking him in the eyes and shouting... Anti-Antidote: IT's ALL FAKE! COVID DOESN'T EXIST, THE VACCINE IS MEANT TO MICROCHIP US!! THINK FOR YOURSELF, MAN!!!Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! The beating continues. WHEN SUDDENLY... Billy: HE'S HERE! HE'S HERE! FPV IS HERE!Chris Avery: And just in the nick of time too! He's here to make the save!The crowd erupts as Frank SPRINTs down the aisle and slide into the ring, pulling AA off of Ramon before delivering justice onto the Alex Jones-viewing idiot, powdering him with lefts and rights, dazing AA with ease before cocking the foot back and... Crowd: BOOM! HEADSHOT!! He superkicks the daylights out of AA, sending him tumbling out of the ring and onto the ground below, leaving only him and Ramon together in the ring. The crowd is BUZZING WITH ANTICIPATION. Billy: What's gonna happen Chris? What's Ramon going to say?! BY GOD, THE SUSPENSE.The two men exchange a few inaudible words...before they finally embrace!! Billy: YES! YES! SHITFIRE YES! LOVE WINS, CHRIS! LOVE WIIIIIIINS!! LISTEN TO THIS CROWD!!Crowd: YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! Chris Avery: ONE WEEK BEFORE HE TESTS HIS MIGHT IN THE HAVOC RUMBLE, FRANK PATRICK VENABLE GETS HIS MAN BACK AND IS JUST. RIDING. HIGH. WE'VE GOT TO GO TO COMMERCIAL BUT JESUS...I THINK I MIGHT ACTUALLY BE CRYING.The screen fades as Frank and Ramon leave to the back, exchanging more words as they pass by the downed body of the Anti-Antidote, Frank giving Ramon a big kiss on the cheek as the fans go nuts.

Co-Main Event Winner is #1 in Havoc Rampage vs. Dionysus
War Ready by Def Rebel hits and the ActionTron strobes and lights up with RAMPAGE logos. Rampage walks out from behind the curtain and poses on the top of the stage. Adilene Floyd begins to introduce Rampage as he brushes off the few fans who are trying to reach out and touch Rampage. He doesn't let them get close and gives them a snarl just for thinking about it. Adilene Floyd: Standing at 6'1, weighing 328 pounds, he is the Brick Wall.. RAMPAGE!Rampage stomps his one foot down on the steel steps and looks menacing out at the crowd.

A quadriga of four Clydesdale horses pulling a chariot made of gold appears carrying "The Crimson Gladiator" Dionysus and makes its way down the aisle as if entering the Roman Colosseum ready to do battle and circles the ring and stops. As Dion enters the ring, the quadriga of four Clydesdale horses pulling a chariot made of gold makes its way back up the aisle and disappears followed by The Legion. "The Crimson Gladiator" Dionysus, standing in the middle of the ring, raising a scepter of Dionysus toward the crowd and starts banging the shaft against a custom made Vibranium/steel alloy Spartan shield calling out his opponent to engage him into a fight to the death. Dionysus's fans stand in unison to cheer their warrior as gold coins in his likeness rains down on him in the center of the ring. He looks out to his fans, who give Dionysus the thumbs up and gives his opponent the thumbs down, meaning "Death!" Dion raises both arms holding the scepter and custom made Spartan shield wide out over his head in praise to the crowd and let's out a Gladiator bloodcurdling scream.

TWO!! THREE!! DING DING DING The crowd pops!! Billy: HES DONE IT!! DIONYSUS IS NUMBER ONE IN THE HAVOC RUMBLE!!Dion rolls off Rampage (heh) and sits up. The ref raises his arm in victory. Rampage rolls to the corner as Dion gets up and fist pumps in victory! Billy: He's number one!!Chris Avery: After weeks and weeks, MONTHS leading to this.. he finally gets it!!Just then the music stops as Pasternaks music hits and he appears through the curtain. Billy: OH here comes our General Manager! Alexander Pasternak!Chris Avery: He out here to congratulate Dionysus I'm sure!Pasternaks music fades as he stands on the stage and holds a microphone up. Alexander Pasternak: Awesome job, Dionysus. Awesome job. Crowd pops as Dionysus leans on the ropes wiping the sweat from his face. Alexander Pasternak: But.. I lied. You didn't win #1. You didn't get #1 and you're NOT going to be #1 in Havoc. BUWAHAHAHAPasternak laughs as the crowd just sits there stunned. Dionysus sits down on the canvas completely fucking exhausted. Alexander Pasternak: You're lucky you're even in Havoc!Pasternak tosses the microphone behind him as he turns to face the curtain and just walks off! We see Dion completely dejected in the ring. Billy: What?! He's NOT #1?!Chris Avery: What the hell?! Billy: I .. I don't have words!We fade out to a commercial.

Mason Jones Segment
We come back to Monday Night Clash and we have Nate Burrelson standing in front of the locker room of Jayson Price. Nate Burleson: Yes, guys, I'm here, we're going to want a word from Price but he's laser focused on this match here tonight and isn't answering the door!Nate knocks on the door again and asks for Price to come out but he yells "IM TRAINING!" and slams something against the door. Nate Burleson: Well gu-Just then, Mason Jones comes up to Nate and the crowd cheers. Mason Jones: Hey, hey! We don't need to be bothering Jayson Price right now!Nate Burleson: Well, we were wondering Prices' thoughts on this huge match up tonight against long time friend and rival Corey Black! Especially now that we're just two weeks away from Havoc, in what could be the biggest rumble event in our history!Mason Jones: What needs to be said, Nate? That Price has been on a rollercoaster of a return as of late winning matches here, losing matches there.. or the fact that Corey Black has been on one insanely one lane-driven mission to get back to his World Championship. Look, lets face facts; Corey Black has the best chance to go into Havoc in two weeks and throw everyone over the top rope and get back his spot at Evolution IV and taking the World Championship from Ash Blake but does Black win the title this week on Clash?Nate Burleson: Well, no.Mason Jones: Exactly, and that means Corey Black has more to lose than Jayson Price! Lets face this fact; Jayson Price is just one match away from showing this entire roster, from showing the ENTIRE world that he is without a shadow of a doubt one of the greatest wrestlers to ever lace em' up! If you think someones better, you tell me!Nate Burleson: Walter? Odin Balfore? Teo Blaze? Spencer Adams? Lissie Hope? Corey Black?Mason Jones: Better. Better. Better. Spencers ight. Better. and tonight, Jayson Price, my mentor, my hero marches through that curtain, down that ramp, into that ring and shows Corey Black and the rest of you what you've been wanting out of Price.. and that's Price beating the ever loving SHIT out of Corey Black!Nate Burleson: Wow, you think Price can defeat Black here tonight?Mason Jones: I don't think it, Nate. I believe it. I know it. It's going to happen. Look, the powers at be informed me this morning that I'm not in the Havoc rumble. So be it. I know I can do better and I'm trying week in and week out JUST like my mentor does. Price shows up. Price is here. Who do you know booked every week? Walter is on the roster and he hasn't showed up since Thanksgiving! Lissie Hope just had 3 matches in a row and she looks exhausted! Hell, most of the TV title Champions aren't even booked every week! Once Jeremiah Gail lost the belt he been missin.. but you know who is booked every week? Know who is out here giving rubs to the younger roster members? And probably giving rubs to some of the females behind closed doors.Mason elbows the door and winks at the camera. Mason Jones: You know who is putting in work, kicking ass even in loss and failure, and still wants to dish out more punishment while taking all the laughs, the shit talk, and all the curved dick jokes in facebook group chats? Jayson god damn Price. That's who.Nate Burleson: Wow, Mason, thanks for-Mason Jones: Nah, don't thank me, Nate. We should be thanking Jayson Price. He's a WCF Hall of Famer, he ran that company for nearly a decade before closing its doors whether Seth wants to admit it or not, and tonight Price is going to prove one thing... That Jayson Price is one of the greatest wrestlers we've ever seen. We should be thanking Jayson Price that he'd even show up.. let alone beat the hell out of Corey Black.The crowd pops as Mason calms down from his fired up promo. Mason Jones: Now, if you excuse yourself, Nate.. Price doesn't want any company at the moment. He has a big match with Corey Black.Nate nods and tells the camera to wander off. Mason stands directly in front of the door and protects the locker room of Jayson Price. We fade to a commercial.

Co-Main Event Corey Black vs. Jayson Price
"The Cell" by Gojira hits the arena speakers as the lights dim down. When the drums kick in, pyro goes off from the big screen and stage. The crowd lets out a mixed reaction as a spotlight comes down onto the stage and Jayson Price walks out from the back, staring out at the crowd and then focusing on the ring. Adilene Floyd: From Philadelphia, Pennsylvania... weighing in at 260 pounds... JAYSON PRICE!Price starts walking down the ramp, ignoring the outstretched hands of the fans, until he reaches ringside where he rolls into the ring under the bottom rope and heads for his corner. Price stays leaning against the turnbuckles until the bell rings. Billy: We heard some strong words from Mason Jones didn't we? He says Price is as focused as ever!"Blood and a Siren" by Index Case The crowd goes crazy as Corey Black comes down the ramp. The crowd fucking going apeshit as Corey Black just jumps to the apron and gets into the ring. No frills, no pryo, no jokes. Chris Avery: .. Price has to face one of the best to ever do it! Corey Black! The KING as some say!DING DING DING Black and Price are in opposite corners staring each other down. Billy: Here we go!! Big match feel!Chris Avery: Ya know this could get good!Black and Price shoot across the ring and go for a strike but Black sidesteps and goes for a kick but Price catches the boot and backflips Corey Black but Black lands on his feet, Price goes for PRICE CHECK but Black floats underneath the boot and picks Price up on his shoulders.. Billy: BURNING HAMMER!!Chris Avery: ITS OVER!Price able to get out of it and shove Black off and tries to snap off an early superkick again. Black catches the foot and delivers an elbow straight into the kneecap. Chris Avery: DON'T TRY TO TRADE ELBOWS WITH THE MASTER!Black all too wise to take things slowly as he stays right on the offense, following up with a side kick to the gut and then a knee raise to the face in bang-bang fashion as he uses his speed advantage. Price still on his feet but he's been taken off guard as Black takes no chances of letting him recover as he quickly tries to roll him up with a small package. ON- Billy: Not even a one count. But I doubt Black expected to win there, that was all about keeping the offense flowing.Black quick to get back up to his feet and he tries to lock in a dragon sleeper on Price as he's attempting to sit up. But Price is too strong for Black to lock in a hold so early as he grabs the wrists and pulls them away as he stands up. Price with a back elbow to the face to get a little space between them. Black responds with a kick to the legs, trying to take Price back down, but Price shakes it off. Price now trying to tie up but Black wants nothing to do with trading grapples with Price and attempts to avoid him. Black ducks the arms and goes for another side kick but Price is ready for him this time. Price catches the boot and delivers a kick to the back of the hamstring. Black hobbled briefly by the impact and Price takes him to the mat with a chop block to the same leg. Chris Avery: And this is how Price stops the speedy offense of Black, work the legs like only he can.Black not necessarily hurt but he's feeling it as Price grabs the leg and tries to turn him over for a single leg boston crab. Black not too far from the ropes and he's able to crawl to them before Price can get it locked in fully. The referee starts up a count as Price still has the leg and is trying to twist it, but he relents at 4 and backs off. Black allowed time to get to his feet and that's it as Price charges him, looking to clothesline him out of the ring. But Black knew it was coming! Corey ducks down and Price is sent over the top rope. But he lands on the apron! And again somehow Corey Black knew it was coming because he hits a pele kick square in the face that knocks Price off the apron. Billy: Corey Black knows Price's offensive style too well, he's got counters for days.Chris Avery: But I guarantee that goes both ways, Billy. We've seen so many battles between these guys, they both need to come up with some new strategies if they want to win.Black looking at Price out on the floor and the crowd is up in anticipation of something big. Black hits the ropes and sprints across the ring. It looks like he's going to springboard over the top rope but he reverses it and instead casually lands on the apron as Price was already ducking whatever was coming. Black now leaping off the apron and he double stomps the back of Price, driving him to the ground. Billy: Well there's your new strategy!A loud "COREY BLACK" chant starts up as Price is writhing on the ground and Black pops back up onto his feet. Black now pulling Price back up to his feet and hits a chop across the chest that puts Price up against the apron. Corey moving to get Price into the ring under the ropes as he realizes the referee has been counting, albeit a bit slower than you'd normally see due to the importance of this match, and is up to 7. Black up onto the apron and this time he does go for the springboard, hitting a senton and then going for the pin. ONE! TW- Billy: One and a half maybe, but Price is looking terrible right now. He's got no answers for Black's offense for some reason.Black back up to his feet and he pulls Price up with him when suddenly Black grabs at his face, near his eye. The referee trying to check to see what happened when Price moves him out of the way and rolls Black up. The referee slow to go for the count, obviously pissed after Price put his hands on him. Black kicks out before one and Price is livid at the slowness of the count. Black still rubbing at his eye as replays are shown. It's clear as day Price jabbed Black in the eye with his thumb but Price is keeping the referee's gaze away from that with his bitching about the count. Black up to his feet but he's not 100% as he's got a hand over his eye. Price spins him around and sets him up. Billy: SHITFIRE WHAT IMPACT!! ITS OVER!!Price with the cravate cutter and then the pin. The referee with the count. ONE! TWO! THRE- Chris Avery: NO! KICKOUT!Price is up and cursing at the referee, livid about what he considered a slow count. Black pushing himself up to his feet as the crowd is chanting for him to "FUCK HIM UP!". Billy: THIS CROWD IS RABID FOR THIS MATCH!The referee with his back to Price as he's checking on Black. Price shoves him aside and hits Black with a swift kick to the groin. The referee turns back around but before he can see that Black's been hit low, Price grabs him and spikes him to the mat with a DDT. Price quickly hooks the leg and the referee drops for the count. ONE! TW- BLACK KICKS OUT!! Price now on his feet and he's throwing a fit, tearing at his beard and screaming out obscenities as Black is stirring on the mat, still not looking like he's fully there. Price staring down at Black and his eyes are that of a man who's ready to kill. Black trying to sit up but he ends up getting dragged to his feet. Price starts to set up Black for the Pricebuster but then stops and shakes his head. He spins him around and then lifts him up onto his shoulders. Billy: Don't tell me he's going to try and end it this way...Chris Avery: WHATS HE DOING?!The crowd booing as Price stands in the middle of the ring, set up for a burning hammer on Black. But suddenly Black comes back to life! Black manages to land an elbow to the face and wiggle free. Black spins Price around and grabs him by the head. One elbow. Two elbows. Three elbows. Elbow strikes one after the other until Price is busted open badly. Black spins him around and lifts him up. Billy: BURNING HAMMER!Chris Avery: AND THE MOST SATISFYING ONE I'VE EVER WITNESSED!Black hits it square in the middle of the ring and then hooks the leg as the crowd counts along. ONE! TWO! THREE! DING DING DING Billy: COREY BLACK WINS!!Chris Avery: THE KING WINS ON THE FINAL STOP BEFORE HAVOC!!Black shoves himself up to his feet using the chest of Jayson Price as he reacts and celebrates with the crowd. Price rolls out of the ring to the apron. Chris Avery: This co-main event was nuts, but it's the KING who walks out on top! Some say he has the biggest target on his back, Corey Black is walking into Havoc with one mission! To face Ash Blake at Evolution IV and get his World Championship back!Billy: You're not wrong! Corey Black will have to eliminate just about the entire roster to do it! But don't think he won't die tryin'!Price is leaning against the apron holding his head and neck as Black stares at him. Price doesn't even look back as he tries to stumble to the bottom of the ramp. Officials come down to check on his condition as Black continues reacting with the crowd. We see Mason Jones put an arm of Price over his shoulder. Price looks at Mason but doesn't tell him to leave. Mason helps Price up the ramp. Billy: We'll be right back on Monday Night Clash! We still have one more Co-Main event left!Chris Avery: Can't wait!We fade to a commercial.

Howard Black Calls Out James Nightingale
“Lost Boys” by Death Grips hits the P.A. to a pop from the crowd. The curtains part atop the ramp, and Howard Black walks out, a cold look on his face as he walks to the ring, mic in hand, still in street clothes. Chris Avery: The Lost Boy is here, and he doesn’t look happy, Billy.Billy: Do ya blame him? Five weeks ago, he tried to announce his last match at Evolution – interrupted. Two weeks later, tries again – gets attacked by Nightingale. Week after that, he flatly denies Nightingale’s challenge. And last week?Chris Avery: We all know Nightingale’s game too well, and just as we all assumed – some mysterious letter sent to Howard’s wife. I’m sure he’s here to see to things with the Angel of Death.Howard slides into the ring and walks directly to the center, pivoting with no time to waste. As the music dies, he raises the microphone to his mouth, his voice coming out as a low snarl. Howard Black: Jim Nightingale. Now.A roar of cheers rip through the audience as all eyes go to the ramp. Howard states expectantly. After a moment of silence, as though savoring the anticipation, “In the House, In a Heartbeat” by William Morris hits the PA. The boos echo loudly as Nightingale enters, unaccompanied and dressed in his Monday best. His eyes glimmer with malevolent glee, a small but telling smile across his face. He keeps a hand tucked under his coat and behind his back, causing the tails to billow behind him as he struts down the aisle. In his other hand, he holds a microphone that he raises to his mouth as the music dims and he continues his advance toward the ring. James Nightingale: Run run Lost Boy, they say to me… Away from all of reality... Neverland is home to lost boys like me...He slides into the ring, the small smile now wide and giddy as he approaches Howard. James Nightingale: And lost boys like me are free... Neverland is home to lost boys like me... And lost boys like me are –Howard Black: Cut the crap, Nightingale.The crowd erupts. The glee fades from Nightingale’s face, but the smile never leaves. Howard Black: You want a fight? You got one. Any time, any place, name it, but NOT at Evolution. That’s not yours and you don’t deserve it either way.The crowd roars with appreciation. Nightingale continues to smile. James Nightingale: Who said anything about Evolution, Howard?A hush falls over the crowd. Chris Avery: So if not Evolution, what’s this all about?James Nightingale: Though I must compliment the confidence you have to think I’ll allow you to make Evolution.The crowd boos! James Nightingale: Arrogance, even. Such as the arrogance to have spent the last year on this tawdry “retirement tour” of yours. Such as the arrogance...He trails off, his eyes gazing off as his expression darkens. The next words come out as a low snarl. James Nightingale: ...to have stuck your nose where it didn’t belong at Uprising.The boos are loud. Howard seems genuinely shocked. Howard Black: Uprising? This is about a show over half a year ago?The smile has completely left Nighingale’s face, replaced with a sneer. James Nightingale: What else would it be about, Howard? You took something from me, so now I’m going to take something from you. That it breaks a little black heart is just the cherry on top.Nightingale pauses to chuckle at his own joke, ignoring the deafening boos. James Nightingale: Havoc. Before the match. Me and you – we’ll see who still deserves their place in this ring.Howard Black: Done.James Nightingale: And we’ll be sure that this is the end of your tired little display, Howard – that you’ll never stick your nose where it doesn’t belong ever again. I’m going to make you say it aloud and make you MEAN IT...Nightingale gets up close and in Howard’s face. The Lost Boy doesn’t flinch, but Nightingale’s smile returns wide and hungry. James Nightingale: “I Quit”.The Angel of Death turns, his music hitting the PA as he exits the ring back up the ramp. Halfway up, Howard raises his microphone and interrupts the music. Howard Black: James.The Angel of Death stops and turns. Howard Black: What did you send to Sarah?Nightingale’s smile is wide and proud. He pauses a moment, once more savoring the dramatics and the anticipation. And then he raises his microphone. James Nightingale: Oh, nothing sinister. Simply a front row ticket to Havoc so she can personally know it’s over.And with that, James Nightingale drops the microphone and walks to the back, leaving a visibly shaken Howard Black in the ring.

Main Event Lissie Hope vs. Spencer Adams
Thick bass fills the arena as a mock illustration of Mt. Rushmore comes on screen, one face added after another with each of them being Spencer's. No. 99 by Joey BadA$$ starts playing throughout the arena and we get a shot of Spencer Adams marching through winding backstage halls, his eyes focused straight ahead. The crowd roars as he emerges from the curtain and onto the stage. He looks straight up into the camera and keeps the same pace down the ramp before sliding in and heading for the nearest turnbuckle. Adilene Floyd: Making his way to the ring, from Chicago, Illionis weighing in at 170 pounds...Spencerrrr Adams!!Spencer stands on the second turnbuckle and stares back at the raucous audience as he waits for his opponent. Billy: Our main event! Spencer Adams takes on Lissie Hope!The downtempo bass drops. The trap-heavy outro of Billie Eilish’s “bad guy” floods the arena, the booming shaking the seats underneath each audience member. They rise to their feet in anticipation of the arrival of Action Wrestling’s former two-time World Champion, and current member of Philidor Holdings, "The Blackheart" Lissie Hope! I like when you get mad. The crowd jumps out of their seats as the booming bass of the song continues. The anticipation is growing, and the boos start to crescendo. You said she’s scared of me? I mean... Finally, the curtains spread and Lissie Hope emerges at the top of the entrance stage, standing for a moment and taking in the fan response. She still notices a few signs of support and points those young fans out, the ones who despite her decisions to join Philidor Holdings, still hold her up as a figure of strength and perseverance. She sprints down the ramp, sliding under the bottom rope. She bounces to her feet and raises her arms to the crowd. I’m the bad guy. Ha! Adeline Floyd: Ladies and gentlemen, representing Philidor Holdings... standing 5'5" and weighing 135 pounds... "THE BLACKHEART"... LISSSSSSIEEEE HOOOOOOPE!She enters the ring, wearing a cut-off "Villain" tee-shirt, and black and red workout pants. She removes the Villain t-shirt and tosses it the front rows, watching the fans fight over the memorabilia.
