The Road to Legendaria 8-10-07

[jtn]

The show opens with "Heros" by Shinedown playing as the camera pans the audience and their signs. The camera zooms over to the announce table.

Pilgrim: Welcome to Power On Wrestling presents the Road to Legenardia. Legendaria is just ONE WEEK from today and this final show JTN has guarenteed the rest of the card to be announced and as always some more major announcements overall.
Almanti: Nick Pickles has also said he has a huge revelation concerning a big match for next week.
Pilgrim: Going into the biggest show of the year, we have to make it past tonight. So without any more delay.
Almanti: Our competitors for this match are already in the ring.

The Order vs. Reggie Star and Nightkiller

Pilgrim: This will be The Order’s first tag team match here at POW. They used to be Tag Team Champions at UWW, and want to try to reclaim that former glory here at POW.

Almanti: Let’s just wait and see if they can come up with a win tonight before worrying about who’ll walk away with those titles next week.

The bell rings as Shadow and Nightkiller enter the ring. The two of them circle the center of the ring before rushing for one another. Shadow aims a punch at Nightkiller’s head, but Nightkiller dodges the blow and hits a clothesline. Knocking Shadow to the ground, and forcing the air out of the big man’s lungs. Nightkiller turns on Shadow, and starts stomping on random parts of the downed man’s body.

Pilgrim: Nightkiller is taking perfect advantage of his downed opponent.

Almanti: He should be. Both he and Reggie are eager for a win after their most recent losses. But, they are at the disadvantage here Nightkiller and Starr’s 470 lbs to The Order’s 525 lbs.

In the ring Nightkiller drops a knee onto Shadow’s shoulder, and then goes down for the pin.

Pigrim: Shadow got that shoulder up just in time.

Nightkiller starts to argue with the ref, and doesn’t notice Hellfire coming up behind him. The large man slams his fist into the back of Nightkiller’s skull, dropping him to the mat. Hellfire starts to back out of the ring, when the ref turns to order him out, and watches as Shadow gets up and body slams Nightkiller onto the mat. Shadow goes for a pin.

Reggie Starr runs out of his corner and delivers a powerful kick to Shadow’s ribs. Shadow rolls off of Nightkiller and Reggie pulls him back to their corner. Where Reggie climbs out of the ring and slaps Nightkiller’s hand, making the tag.

Pilgrim: After a little bit of foul play from both corners of the ring Nightkiller makes the tag. Barely.

Reggie rushes to the other side of the ring, and delivers a kick right to Hellfire’s chest. The Demon falls from the curtain and slams into the ground.

Almanti: Hellfire will feel that in the morning!

Reggie turns around, and is plowed straight into the turnbuckle by a charging Shadow. Shadow takes his foot and attempts to crush Reggie’s head into the middle turnbuckle. Hellfire climbs back up onto the apron with the help of Saya, and Shadow makes the tag. The Order then turns to Reggie; both of them pick him up, and perform a double choke slam, followed by a double stomp. Shadow climbs out of the ring, and Hellfire drags Reggie’s nearly unconscious body into the center of the ring. Ready to make the pin, for the now certain victory.

“Solitary Man” by HIM blasts over the loudspeakers, interrupting Hellfire’s plan. The Demon, Shadow, and Saya turn to watch, as two very familiar figures make their way down the ramp. Shade and Rage. Shadow jumps into the ring and orders for a mic.

Shade: Don’t worry Shadow. Rage, and myself aren’t here to interfere in your little match. We just had a little proposition that I just cleared with JTN, himself. Rite of Chaos wants an exciting match for their first title defense. And you better deliver, because they challenge you to a TABLES, LADDERS, AND CHAIRS MATCH!

Shadow picks up the mic thrown to him from outside the ring.

Shadow: Then why didn’t they have the balls to come down and make that challenge themselves?

Shade: Simple really.

Shade and rage point to opposite sides of the rings.

Shade: Because they’re right THERE!

Lestat and Silver slide under the bottom ropes on opposite sides of the ring. Each of them leap to their feet, and pick up a pair of weapons. Silver holds a sledgehammer, and Lestat raises a chair.

Shadow runs to tackle Silver, but the young man side-steps the blow, and slams the hammer right into Shadow’s sternum. Lestat simply pounds the chair right onto Hellfire’s head, before the Demon can react. Both members of the Order stagger till each one is back to back. Rite of Chaos takes aim, and slams a Chaos Strike (a Double Season Ender) into both men’s chin. The Order crumbles to the mat, and Silver drags Shadow out of the ring, dropping him to the floor. Lestat stands up Reggie Starr, and slaps the large man back to life. Starr nearly hits Lestat, but realizes that Hellfire is down. Lestat climbs out of the ring, and walks around to where Shade, Rage, and Silver are standing. The reborn Society of Chaos slowly makes their way out of the arena.

Reggie Starr drops down on top of Hellfire, and waits for the count.

Winner: Reggie Starr and Nightkiller

Almanti: After a great deal of interference the first match has come to a hell of a close.

Pilgrim: Yes it has! And, if you ask me, Society of Chaos is back on the scene. And, their out for blood.

[jtn]

The scene opens backstage with POW Commissioner standing with a briefcase in his hands. He is holding it flat trying to keep it level.

Nick: Ladies and gentlemen I know you all hate me and wish that I was never given this job. But I have a major announcement concerning Legendaria. Nitro and I have agreed this is the best path to follow. See I was walking around the new POW Headquarters when I found this lying on the floor.

Pickles opens the case to reveal the AAA Medallion all shined up and looking like a million dollars. Pickles grins.

Nick: It appears our former holder of this wondrous opportunity just decided to leave it laying around and not want to cash it in. So we are having a match for this medallion at Legendaria.

In the arena the crowd can be heard cheering.

Nick: Tonight we will be watching the matches of everyone involved and we will pick six to eight superstars to compete for this medallion in an elimination match. Of course we leave an open invitation to Night if he cares to show up and try and re-earn it back. But he is the only person guarenteed a shot. Everyone else tonight will have to shine to earn a spot in this match and it will be announced later on this broadcast. And for those who don't know....AAA stands for Anytime, Anyplace, Anytitle. It is basically a free shot at any championship in POW. So everyone would be wise to prove their worth tonight and earn a spot in this prestigous matchup.

Fade to black as the camera zooms in on the medallion.

Hard Slammin’ by The Blackout kicks in as Kyle Neverwinter emerges from behind the curtain. He then begins to walk down the aisle as he gets mixed reaction from the crowd. He does not let this bother him as he stares at the ring showing no remorse for his opponent. He then circles the ring before sliding in and waiting for his opponent.

Huff: In the ring now weighing in at 210 pounds. He comes from South Wales, UK. In his first POW Match, Kyle Neverwinter!

Pilgim: This young star looks like he wants to make his mark tonight on POW Veteran and number one contender to the Valor Championship.
Almanti: He's not going to beat Erikson.

Every light in the arena goes completely out and a spotlight appears on the stage at the curtain. "Walk with me in Hell" kicks up over the PA and Holly steps out onto the stage wearing her usual. The audience boos her as she signals for Lance to step out from behind the curtain. Lance comes out and puts his arm around Holly's midsection and the two walk down to the ring, Holly happy and Lance with eyes of steel. Holly slides seductively into the ring as Lance walks up the steps and enters over the top rope. Lance then has his arms raised by Holly as the audience boos some more, sometimes throwing an item or two. Holly exits the ring and Lance leans up against the ropes, staring at his opponent.

“Chaos Factor” by Art of Chaos hits as the lights dim almost to black. Red and white lights start to shine down the runway as Lestat and Silver walk down the ramp. Lestat runs ahead of Silver and slides into the ring. Lestat poses for the crowd as Silver slaps the fans hands till he reaches the ring. He then climbs up the steps and enters the ring through the ropes. He nods to Lestat and both take opposite sides and jump to the top of the middle turnbuckle and extend their arms in a (Randy Orton style) arms spread pose.

Huff: Introducing first, from the Anaheim, California region. They weigh in at a combined 390 pounds. They are Silver and Lestat. RITE, OF CHAOS!

“(Can't You) Trip Like I Do” by Filter hits the arena as Scott walks out of the curtain. He looks around at the area, familiarizing his surroundings. He then steps into the ring as if nothing special had happened.

“Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves” by Cher starts as the lights dim. Gypsy does a back flip onto the stage and then runs down the ramp, jumps up onto the ring apron, and somersaults into the ring. She stands there and thrusts her arm up into the air, her fingers spread in the peace sign.

Huff: And introducing second. They hail from somewhere in Romania and Seattle, Washington respectively. Combined, they weigh in at 370 pounds. They are GYPSY, and SCOTT LANEGAN!

A low sounding cheer rises from the crowd for the two teams in general. The referee signals for the bell to begin this match.

Non-title
Scott Lanegan & Gypsy vs. Rite of Chaos

DING

Lanegan and Silver start this match out by circling each other a half turn. They step into each other and Lanegan goes for a tie-up, which is thwarted by Silver, who delivers a hard kick to the midsection of Lanegan. He hits a couple more kicks to Lanegan’s midsection, doubling Lanegan over. Silver then bounces off the ropes and hits a running knee lift to the jaw of Lanegan. Lanegan falls to his back and Silver takes advantage of the opportunity. He kneels to the mat and begins hammering away with vicious rights to the head of Scott Lanegan. After several punches, he gets to his feet and hits a few stomps to the chest and head of Lanegan. Lanegan rolls to his hands and knees and gets to his feet quickly. Silver charges in but gets caught with a knee from Lanegan. Lanegan hits a big forearm across the back of Silver and drops him to the mat.

Pilgrim: Neither of these guys are particularly known for their technical skill.

Lanegan keeps up with his “lack of technical skill” by dropping a hard knee to the upper back of Silver. He kneels down and places a knee on Silver’s back, before reaching underneath his chin and pulling back hard with a camel clutch. He wrenches back as Silver screams out in pain. Silver reaches out in vain for help. He changes his mind and uses his elbows to move, slowly towards the ropes. Silver manages to get to the ropes and reaches out, forcing a break.

Almanti: He knows his way around that ring Alex.

Lanegan gets to his feet and allows Silver to get up slowly. Silver leans hard into the ropes and Lanegan charges at him. Silver manages to get a weak kick out, but it is caught by Lanegan. Lanegan drags Silver out to the middle of the ring holding his foot and drops him with a hard clothesline. Lanegan goes over to Gypsy and tags her into the match.

Pilgrim: The first tag of this match.

Gypsy hops over the top rope and rushes across the ring, hitting a flipping senton on Silver in the middle of the ring. She moves back and steps onto Silver’s lower back. From his back she hits a standing moonsault across Silver. As she gets to her feet, Lestat runs in to save his partner and hits a flying forearm on Gypsy. She falls to the mat as Lanegan enters the ring and floors Lestat with a hard uppercut to the jaw. Lanegan continues beating down on Lestat, hitting him with numerous stomps. He turns his attention to Silver and drops a few stomps on him before helping Gypsy up. She bounces off the ropes and Lanegan lifts her high into the air for a big splash on Silver. She rolls him over and goes for a pinfall.

Silver gets up a shoulder.

Pilgrim: A little help from Lanegan almost got them the win.

Lanegan clears out of the ring and Lestat rolls out as Gypsy helps Silver to his feet, only to catch him with a hard spinning heel kick, dropping him back to the mat. Gypsy bounces off the ropes as Silver slowly gets to his feet and catches him with a hard spear. She makes another cover.

2,

Silver again gets up a shoulder.

Gypsy climbs up the turnbuckle and waits for Silver to rise to his feet. He slowly gets up and staggers around dazed. Gypsy goes for the Steals Your Breath Away, only for Silver to regain his senses and move just in time. Gypsy crashes hard and Silver falls down. Gypsy lies motionless on the mat as Silver starts crawling toward his corner.

Almanti: The high risk maneuver might have hurt her chances in this match.

Gypsy just begins to stir as Silver makes the tag to Lestat. Lestat climbs in and rushes over to Gypsy and stops all movement with a stomp to the lower back. Lestat lifts her up and drops her with a snapmare, followed by a hard kick to the back. He grabs her arms and locks in a surfboard stretch, using his knee. He holds the stretch for a few moments before dragging her across the ring, letting go of the surfboard, and hitting a seated dropkick on her. Lestat walks slowly across the ring and tags Silver back into the match.

Pilgrim: I’m sure that the two of them are looking to end this match quickly.

Lestat picks up Gypsy and holds her in a Russian leg sweep position. As Silver goes over to Gypsy though, he notices something and freezes. Hellfire is standing on the outside of the ring, smiling at Rite of Chaos. As Lestat asks Silver “What’s up?”, he turns and sees Hellfire standing outside the ring. Lestat drops Gypsy, who slumps to the ground, and walks over to the ropes to exchange words with Hellfire. Silver is left with Gypsy, who he slowly picks up. As the referee tries to stop Lestat from exiting the ring, Shadow appears from behind Silver and grabs him, spinning him around. He picks Silver up and drops him down with a hard Crucifix Bomb. He slides out of the ring, just as Lestat turns around. Lestat sees Silver on the mat, sees Shadow, and puts two and two together. He rushes across the ring and charges after Shadow.

Almanti: The Order has taken Rite of Chaos pretty much completely out of this match.

Meanwhile, in the ring, Gypsy crawls along to Lanegan, making the tag to him. Lanegan gets in the ring and walks across to the laid out Silver and lifts him up. He signals to the crowd and lifts Silver up, holding him in a vertical suplex position for several seconds. He then drops Silver down with the Junk Grunge (Brainbuster) and goes for the cover.

Lestat rushes back into the ring to try and make the save…

3!

He’s a little too late.

Winners via Pinfall: Scott Lanegan and Gypsy

Pilgrim: Scott Lanegan gets the win, partially thanks to The Order.

The referee raises the arms of Lanegan and Gypsy in victory as Lestat looks back up the ramp at Hellfire and Shadow both walking backwards up the ramp, slowly. Shadow walks behind the curtain and comes back quickly with a mic.

Shadow: Consider your challenge accepted!

Lestat and Silver have mixed reactions of anger and enjoyment out of hearing that as the scene cuts away.

A static screen gives way to a sweeping Philadelphia skyline. Zooming through the dark streets of The City of Brotherly Love, we finally stop at a series of rowhomes on Lawrence Street, just off of 4th and Ritner. A plain bricked home with a few white plastic chairs on the steps contains a single light shining through the dark blinds. Inside sits George Duke, dressed casually with his plain white Tee shirt tucked into his belted black slacks. The dim room's plaster walls are occassionally dotted with framed pictures and retired titles.The former (and first) Valor Champion sits like a mountain of stone behind a faded wood desk. A marble ashtray filled with his signature cigars sits next to an empty glass. George leans foward, grinning.

GD:"A lot of people want to know why. I could have won the match, I could have taken back my title - I could have gone on to Legendaria a champion - and retained. People have asked why I threw it away. My answer is also a question. I ask you - who left the ring with his head held high? Who was laying in the ring, lifeless as a ragdoll? The feud needed ending - and I ended it. I gave Ci a horrible beating and I left him cold on the canvas. So I ask you - who really won?"

George leans back in his chair. The leather seat cracks and grinds as he pushes his weight back.

GD:"So now I am suspended. I knew it was coming. I had been warned publicly by Tito before he dissapeared. I was warned by Nitro in private, just before the show. I knew if I did what I did, I'd be suspended. I made the choice - I wanted the time off. Why? How can one become better at something unless he takes a break from it? I want the time off for training, for contemplation. I am tired of fighting with Ci, it goes nowhere. With this break, I get time to think, to grow stronger both physically and mentally. I've come home to my native soil - to breath the air, to let the city seep back into my soul. When I come back, I will be allowed to excell, to move on. I have big plans for the future, I assure you. When George Duke returns to the POW ring, he will be the George Duke of old - mean as The Sheik himself. Of course, I am suspended without pay - it doesn't bother me in the least. I have finally recieved my money from Sean Cole. $50,000 for violation of contract and backpay. When the NEW controlled GCW fired me, they were in violation of contract - and I owned part of the company. When they shut it down and sold it off, I was owed a peice of that, too. An additional ten grand. I am awaiting a check from Tommy Gunns and Murderous Entertainment. I was garenteed $300 to show my face at the GCW homecoming. I was garenteed reimbersement for airfare and lodging - he gave me nothing and then his pitiful company folded for the trillionth time. In addition to the $300, I will be awarded another $500 for my unpaid travel and lodging expenses. Plenty of money - and if I'm in a bind - he still owes me thousands from when I worked for him. I'm rolling in dough, kids - I can afford the time off. Nitro thinks he is hurting me with this suspension. He thinks he can keep his roster safe and keep me from the top this way. It is a big mistake. The Great George Duke will return ten times more fierce, ten times more violent - out for blood, like it's meant to be."

George mehtodically lights a cigar and puffs heartily, blowing a thick cloud of smoke into the air.

GD:"As for Big Ci - why don't you join the other POW territory - be home with the rest of the limey scum. Can you belive they offered me a contract? I'd rather slam my thumbs in a sliding van door than dirty my boots with their filthy John Bull soil. To Hell with The Queen, and to Hell with Big Ci. I'm moving on when I get back, but don't think we'll forget you..."

George laughs as the screen fades to black and then back to static.

The lights hit as Life’s wasted by Pearl Jam begins to blairs over the PA system. The camera’s search around as the finally spot Eddie Jones in the crowd.

Almanti: Midwest hits the ring with hometown advantage.

Pilgrim: Some times the underdog fights hard with all they can.

Hamster Dance by Hampton the Hamster begins to play. The lights flash all over the place as Buddy “Love” Johansson walks out with Cory Barnett behind up. They both wear Northeast shirts. They stop point to Big Ci and Eddie Jones in the ring. They pull off their shirts and run into the ring. The light goes back to normal. The music fades.

Before Buddy Love can finish Big Ci explodes with a belly to belly suplex on Buddy Love. Buddy quickly crawls to his corner and tags in Barnett. Barnett gets in and looks to Big Ci.

Almanti: Midwest early advantage

Pilgrim: Doesn’t mean the dance is over.

Almanti: Far from it.

Barnett gets up to Big Ci’s face. They begin to hit each other back and forth. Barnett goes for a knee lift as Big Ci catches the knee pull him back into the corner. He gets the tag with Jones.

Jones rolls over on his stomach as both of them try to reach their respected corners. The both get tags in. The both quickly get in the ring rushing each other. Buddy Love’s eyes widen as he makes a U turn. He rush’s to his corner with Big Ci following. Love turns around and is hit with a clothes line. Buddy staggers a bit.

Pilgrim: Relentless this Big Ci is.

Almanti: I believe so.

Big Ci grabs Buddy Loves head and brings it down ready to pull off an suplex. Buddy drops quickly to the back of him rolling him up in a school boy pin. 1… 2… KICK OUT. Big Ci gets up as Buddy Love bounces off the rope and hits a drop kick. Big Ci staggers back. Buddy Love comes rushing at Big Ci. He jumps hitting him with a flying forearm.

Jones rolls out of the ring and regroups with Big Ci. The ref begins to count the normal count. Jones gets on the ring apron and Big Ci gets back in.

Almanti: Smart moves from Buddy Love in there.

Pilgrim: What does Big Ci and Eddie Jones have planned.

Buddy Love walks over and tags in Barnett again. They switch positions as they begin to look to each other. Both are huffing and puffing a lot. They tie up but Jones drop and grabes the ankle tripping him. He jumps on the back and tries to lock in the Steiner Recliner. Barnett reaches the ropes. Jones quickly backs off. Barnett looks to him getting up. Big Ci reaches over and taps Barnett on the shoulder. Barnett turns around as Jones runs up giving him a wedgie and pulls him back into a school boy roll up.

Almanti: WHAT IS THAT?!

Pilgrim: Wedgie roll up maybe?

Almanti: Do what works!

The ref drops all the sudden. Big Ci hits the ring same time as Buddy Love and grabs him holding Buddy Love back. The ref counts. 1… 2… 3… Jones lets go and gets back up. Buddy Love stops and shakes his head. Jones helps Barnett back up. They shake hands as Pearl Jam hits the system once more. Buddy Love and Barnett leave the ring as Big Ci and Eddie Jones celebrate their victory.

Richard Huff stands in the ring alongside Manny Salazar as we prepare for our next match.

Richard: “Ladies and gentlemen your next match is sch…”

Before Richard can even begin the proper introductions, the arena goes dark. The speaker system erupts with the music of “The Way You Like It” by Adema. As the lights flicker back on, Kaleb Shadix is already emerging from the back. At the top of the ramp, he smirks and then begins walking down the ramp. The lights go out, and then come back on repeatedly as Kaleb makes his way down the ramp, only catching mere glimpses of him. As the lights continue flashing on and off, Kaleb finally makes his way towards the ring. He leaps up onto the ring apron and then steps through the middle and top ring ropes. Now, climbing the corner and standing on the second rope he glances about the audience, all the while the lights are continuing their alternation. He flips a quick bird towards the hissing crowd before getting down from the second rope and pacing around the ring as his theme dies down.

Richard looks over at Kaleb with a somewhat irritated expression, to which Kaleb responds with a middle finger and him raising his title belt into the air.

Richard: “As I was saying, your next match is…”

The lights cut off again, forcing Richard to suspend his second attempt at announcing the match. A single spotlight shines onto the entrance way as “Not Going Away” by Ozzy Osbourne begins playing throughout the arena. As the theme song gets going, Rich Morrison appears out of the curtain and steps into the vicinity of the spotlight. Rich looks around and scans the crowd a bit. The crowd is booing loudly as Rich Morrison arrogantly walks to the ringside area. Rich walks up the ring steps slowly and then enters the ring via the middle rope. He quickly runs up to the middle rope of the nearest turnbuckle and raises his arms above his head. He flips off the crowd before jumping down and running the ropes a bit.

Alex Pilgrim: “I think it’s obvious that neither of these two men are in the mood to wait on anyone or anything before starting this match. It appears we are in for one brutal showdown.”

Tony Almanti: “And rightfully so. Kaleb Shadix has defended that belt successfully time and time again, yet Rich Morrison has treated him with disrespect ever since this match was billed. The two have been verbally assaulting each other all week and now we get to see the sparks really fly.”

Richard: “Ehem, the following match is scheduled for one fall and is for the Midwest Television Title! Introducing first, the challenger, fighting from…”

Kaleb quickly drops his title belt and bull rushes Rich Morrison, tackling him onto the mat. Richard Huff panics and scatters out of the ring as Manny calls for the bell to ring and tries to catch up.

POW Midwest Television Championship Match
Kaleb Shadix(c) vs. Rich Morrison

Kaleb mounts the downed Rich Morrison and begins unloading a barrage of fists to Morrison who tries to cover his face with his arms. Kaleb starts firing off elbows to the midsection of Rich, forcing him to try and retaliate. He manages to squirm out enough to grab the ropes, and Manny breaks the two men up. They both stand to the jeers of the crowd and stand face to face. Rich begins launching a few choice words at Kaleb who responds with a middle finger.

Tony Almanti: “This is going to escalate fast by the looks of it Alex.”

Almost as if on cue, Rich pulls his right arm back and comes forward with a direct smack across Kaleb’s cheek, causing him to bolt backwards. The crowd explodes at such a disrespectful action, knowing that pissing of Shadix is grounds for one hell of a fight. Kaleb smirks and rubs his jaw, then regains his posture. Laughing, he turns the other cheek and points to it as if daring Rich to do it again. Morrison looks to the crowd who yells at him to do it, and boy does he ever. Rich put everything behind the slap that nearly caused the champion to fall to one knee. The etchings of finger prints quickly appeared on Kaleb’s face as he turned to face Rich again, this time without the smile. Manny looked at the two from a distance, looking like he was ready to duck for cover if so necessary.

Out of nowhere Kaleb whips his head forward, cracking skulls with Rich Morrison. A sickening thud reverberates through the arena as Kaleb pushes the dazed challenger up against the ropes. Using his left hand to hold Rich’s head back, Kaleb strikes his chest with a knife-edge chop. As if one wasn’t enough, he quickly delivered a second, and then a third. Manny rushes over and begins a five count, yelling at Kaleb to let Rich off of the ropes. The champion looks over at Manny, and then delivers a crushing knee to Morrison’s abdomen. He strikes him a second time with a high knee and then releases Rich who falls to the mat in a kneeling position. Kaleb delivers a final knee strike to the temple of the downed competitor, knocking him towards the turnbuckle. Rich rolls outside of the ring and falls directly down onto the floor as Kaleb watches on.

The crowd doesn’t know whether to cheer or boo for either men and simply begin cheering for more mayhem and brutality. Manny tells Kaleb to stay put, but he ignores the order and climbs outside of the ring. Rich begins fighting back from his knees, striking Kaleb in the chest, stomach, knees, anything he can get his hands on. Fighting back to his feet, Rich hooks ones of Kaleb’s legs and delivers a fisherman’s suplex onto the floor. Kaleb arches his back in pain from the impact. Morrison climbs back into the ring and then up the turnbuckle as the crowd jumps to their feet.

Alex Pilgrim: “Oh no, what is Morrison doing?”

As Kaleb gets to his feet, Rich back flips off of the turnbuckle and lands a textbook moonsault onto Kaleb Shadix outside of the ring. The crowd bursts into applause and begins a P-O-W chant as Manny starts a ten count.

Alex Pilgrim: “That was damned near suicidal!”

Tony Almanti: “But the crowd loved it and so did I!”

Manny gets to 5 before Rich slowly stands up and grabs onto Shadix. By the count of 7 he manages to roll Shadix back into the ring and follows him. Rich rolls over on top of the defending champ and makes the cover.

Kick out by Kaleb. Rich doesn’t look surprised and raises Kaleb to his feet. Rich whips Kaleb towards the ropes. As Shadix bounces back, Rich prepares to lay the smack down on his candy ass, but Kaleb is somehow one step ahead and performs an amazing high kick that connects with Rich’s head. Kaleb jumps to his feet and drags Rich over towards the turnbuckle. Lifting him to his feet, Kaleb gets behind Rich with his back to the nearby corner of the ring. Shadix wraps his arms around the midsection of Morrison who quickly realizes the peril he’s in.

Alex Pilgrim: “Is he… no he can’t suplex him into the turnbuckle! He’ll break the man’s back in half!”

Rich tries to hook his leg around Kaleb’s but is simply outdone as Shadix German suplexes him up and into the turnbuckle back first. Morrison takes an ugly bounce, twisting into an awkward position as he flops forward. Kaleb quickly covers him.

And a defiant kick out by the challenger. Both men manage to return to their feet and Rich grabs hold of his own back in pain. Kaleb takes advantage and runs forward with a sort of running uppercut. Instead of letting Rich fall to the mat however, Kaleb locks his arm around Rich’s head and drops him with a reverse DDT. Hooking the leg, Kaleb goes for another pin attempt, this time hooking both of Morrison’s legs.

But another kick out!

Tony Almanti: “I have a feeling it’s going to take something huge to keep either of these men down.”

Kaleb begins rolling Rich towards the edge of the ring. With him lying there, Kaleb runs against the opposite set of ropes and then comes crashing forward with a baseball slide. Rich manages to go ahead and roll out of the ring prior however, and Kaleb literally slides straight out of the ring and falls onto the floor. As if getting a second wind, Rich jumps to his feet and gets into position to grab Shadix from behind. A look of excitement appears on Morrison’s face as he prepares to utterly destroy the champion. Kaleb stands up, but Morrison is there and ready. He locks him up and turns him over into a pile driver position. The crowd gets to their feet again, anticipating a drop onto the bare floor. Morrison has even darker motives however, and begins running forward with Shadix upside down. Somehow Rich manages to jump while holding Kaleb and delivers a running pile driver onto the ring stairs! The champion pounces off the stairs head first and falls onto the floor as the crowd begins chanting again. Manny calls for the two competitors to get back into the ring, but then notices that Kaleb isn’t even moving. Manny crawls out of the ring to attend to the down champion who now clearly has a line of blood falling from his brow.

Rich looks on as Manny asks Kaleb if he’s even able to continue. Shadix shoves Manny out of the way and uses the stairs to slowly climb to his feet. A glazed expression covers his face as blood runs down his face.

Alex Pilgrim: “The champ looks as if he’s completely out of it! How is he supposed to continue in this condition?”

Tony Almanti: “He’s Kaleb Shadix Alex. The man isn’t going to stop.”

Rich struts over towards the weary and injured champ and crashes down an elbow onto Kaleb’s back. Shadix fires back with a forearm and tries to simply keep his balance. The forearm apparently hit a soft spot on Rich’s head because he turned away from Shadix. Kaleb took advantage and made an ill-contrived attempt at a diving bulldog onto the stairs. It connected enough to send Rich’s face into the stairs, but the impact wasn’t strong enough to truly incapacitate the challenger. Manny decided enough was enough and crawled back into the ring to start a ten count.

Kaleb stands and rolls into the ring, laying on his back and trying to regain his breath.

Morrison grabs onto the edge of the apron and tries to hoist himself into the ring.

At the last second, Rich indeed manages to return to the ring, both men lying flat as the match continues. They both slowly stand, both bleeding from the brow, both having gone through hell to keep the other down. Kaleb and Rich begin trading right hands, one after the other as the two try to balance while swinging their fists at one another.

Tony Almanti: “These two are fighting on pure gut instinct now. What a showing of athleticism.”

Kaleb tries to capitalize with a wild haymaker of a right hand, but Rich ducks and the arrant fist finds its way into the face of one Manny Salazar. The referee falls backwards, caught completely off guard by the attack. Kaleb lets out a slew of cuss words at this development.

Alex Pilgrim: “Luckily for the integrity of this match, I don’t think either competitor really has enough in the tank to utilize the downed referee.”

But guess who does? JR Zevon suddenly comes running down the entrance way, steel chair in hand. The crowd begins roaring in disapproval as the former Eastern Heavyweight Champion slides into the ring. Kaleb turns to face him as Zevon holds tight to the chair. Rich takes the opportunity to run forward and spear Kaleb from behind. Zevon lurches off to the side as the spear connects onto the champion. Morrison then looks towards JR Zevon, prepared to attack him. However, much to the confusion of Rich, Zevon tells him to lift Kaleb up. Morrison hesitates at first, but then obliges, lifting the TV champ to his feet. Zevon rears backwards and then cracks Kaleb Shadix over the head with the steel chair.

Tony Almanti: “What the hell is Zevon doing?! Did he just HELP Rich Morrison?”

Zevon throws the chair outside the ring and lifts up the battered Kaleb Shadix, holding him tight. Zevon begins yelling at Morrison to finish the match. Rich, with a smile on his face, kicks Shadix in the gut causing him to double over. Hooking the two arms of Kaleb, Rich Morrison delivers The Headliner and falls on top of the champion. Zevon rolls out of the ring and over to the downed Manny Salazer and tries to revive him. Shaking the referee violently, he eventually comes to and notices Rich Morrison hooking the leg of Kaleb Shadix. Crawling over slowly, he begins a slow and drawn out count.

The bell rings as Morrison rolls off of Kaleb with a look of disbelief on his face.

Winner via Pinfall and New Television Champion: Rich Morrison

Alex Pilgrim: “I can’t believe this. Thanks to the help of JR Zevon, Rich Morrison has just become the Midwest Television Champion! Somebody please tell me what is going on here!”

As Manny crawls towards the ropes to retrieve the belt in order to hand it to Rich, Zevon grabs the steel chair and slides back into the ring. Rich Morrison stands slowly and waits for his belt to be handed to him, but is suddenly knocked the hell out by a sick chair shot to the back of the head by JR Zevon. Manny turns around to see what’s going on, but can do nothing to stop what happens next. Zevon lifts the new champion to his feet and sets the steel chair up in the center of the ring. Morrison is literally dead weight in Zevon’s hands as he lifts him up. The crowd hissing and roars as Zevon delivers a Dramatic Zeffect directly on top of the chair to Rich Morrison. The chair bends in half as Rich falls limp onto the mat. Zevon jumps to his feet with a look of success on his face. Security accompanied by head trainer James Gagne rushes towards the ring to get Zevon out of the way and attend to the two brutalized men in the ring. JR Zevon rolls out and exits through the crowd as the damage is assessed by Gagne.

Alex Pilgrim: “I still cannot believe what I just witnessed. A truly epic match that ended with Morrison becoming the new champion thanks to JR Zevon, but only to have him deliver the Dramatic Zeffect on him through a steel chair!”

Tony Almanti: “And with Legendaria only a week away, I think it’s obvious what’s coming up for Zevon and Morrison!”

Alex Pilgrim: “Do you think Kaleb is just going to sit back after being cost his title by Zevon? This situation just got explosive.”

Tony Almanti: “It was explosive before this match even began. Thanks to this night it has erupted into pure chaos. Regardless, we have a new Television Champion!”

[jtn]

"Kobrakai" by Lost Prophets hits as JTN comes walking out onto the stage. He has a mic in hand.

Jay: Alright alright alright. We have to set some things in stone for Legendaria. Of course we have the triple main events. One being Kailus Holmes versus Flying Diamond Cutter Man for the POW World Heavyweight Championship.

The crowd cheers.

Jay: Another being Shawn Stevens defending his POW Midwest Championship against Reck Maverick in a three stages of hell match. Submissions, Last Man Standing, and Ladder matches in that order.

Again the crowd cheers.

Jay: Finally Rich Morrison's farewell match against JR Zevon....and now it is for the POW Television Championship that Rich won tonight.

A huge pop for that new announcement.

Jay: Then we will see the Valor Championship match between Big Ci and Lance Erikson. Also a POW Midwest Tag Team Championship match pitting the Order against Rite of Chaos in a TLC match. However that just isn't enough. Not for POWs biggest show ever. So what will we do? Well since we found the AAA Medallion laying around at POW HQ, we have made the match. Tonight I kept my eye on everyone as I have also looked back at previous shows. And the match will be an elimination match for that AAA Medallion. In that match will be the man who is supposed to be holding it, Night. Along with him.....Kyle Neverwinter!

Crowd Pop.

Jay: Scott Lanegan!

Bigger pop.

Jay: His partner from tonight Gypsy!

Big pop for the woman.

Jay: Eddie Jones!

Another big pop.

Jay: Graves!

Mixed reaction.

Jay: Kaleb Shadix!

A chorus of boos.

Jay: And finally, a man that took some convincing. But he is a former champion from UWL. A former MPW World Champion. A man that I would personally pick to be the winner of this match......THE FLANCHISER FLAP FLANAGAN!

The crowd explodes and starts chanting Flap. JTN lets them go then starts speaking again.

Jay: The Northeast Championships will also see some action. Since Buddy Love is technically number one contender to the Northeast Heavyweight Championship, he will meet John Anthony in a Northeast Heavyweight Championship match!

Once more the crowd explodes getting to see their favorites in a match.

Jay: The Stoned Raiders will once more face the CIA and defend their tag team championships from the Northeast. And finally Cory Barnett will face Mick Cormac in a POW Open Weight Championship match.

JTN starts to walk away. Then turns back to the crowd.

Jay: Well also I have found out that Oni will make his long awaited return to team up with newcomer Rage to face Robert Pliskin and Reggie Starr in the tag team match.....and Jason Ressurection will face newcomer Calvin Bando in our opening match. That is the entire Legendaria card. Now without any further ado.....your main event for tonight ladies and gentlemen. See you next week for Legendaria!

JTN walks to the back.

Pilgrim: HUGE ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM JTN!
Almanti: Eh...I wasn't impressed.

[jtn]

The crowd are waiting... preparing for the final match. They all know what's coming as the bell automatically rings, signaling for the event to begin. They clap and cheer as Richard Huff stands proudly in the ring, happy to be there, informing everyone of what's happening.

Huff: Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for our main event of the evening!

Richard is barely heard as the crowd erupt with excitement, but that is nothing compared to the standing ovation they dish out as “The Fight” by The Classic Crime hits the arena.

Almanti: I don't know about you, Pilgrim, but I can barely hear myself think!

Pilgrim: Every single fan here has stood up and gave everything they've had... this match is one of the most important main event matches in POW history, and it's the final stop before Legendaria!

Almanti: Everybody wants to get the win and prove that not only do they belong in the main event... but they're the best of the best!

Shawn Stevens, holding the Midwest Heavyweight Championship belt up high as he storms out from the curtain, is screamed at by die-hard fans. He smiles as Sara makes her way out to accompany him.

Huff: Making his way first down to the ring, being accompanied by Sara... from Chicago, Illinois... weighing in at two hundred and twenty three pounds... the POW Midwest Heavyweight Champion... The Sensational Shawn Stevens!

Almanti: I hope Shawn doesn't hurt me for saying this, but Sara looks absolutely stunning!

Pilgrim: The Midwest Champion is the first to come out, and he has an unlikely tag partner, but that's the main thing about this match. Everybody has unlikely partners, everybody has history and everybody hates everybody else!

Classic Crime dies down. Shawn is in the ring, holding the belt over his shoulder, knowing who is going to come out next. The crowd begin to chant.

Crowd: Atomic Ninja! Atomic Ninja! Atomic Ninja!

Almanti: Can you hear the crowd?

Pilgrim: I certainly can! They are not letting up for a single second!

The chants are replaced with screams and cheers as the lights dim, alternating blue and red. “His World” by Zebrahead winds up ready for the drum beats.

Pilgrim: A song made famous from the Sonic the Hedgehog video games.

Almanti: I know it sounds crazy, but this song is a perfect fit for Reck Maverick. He is so much like Sonic it's untrue! The two are insanely fast, and both stand up for what's right.

Pilgrim: If Reck pulls off a Spin Dash tonight, I will certainly bet on him for Legendaria!

As the drums and the harder part of the rock orientated song kick in, Reck appears on the stage, holding the Green Rangers Dragon Dagger. He pulls it to his lips and plays the summons of the DragonZord, the fans scream and chant for Reck. Shawn Stevens looks unimpressed, demanding Reck get to the ring.

Huff: And introducing his tag team partner, from the Ninja's Lair, weighing in at two hundred and twenty pounds, The Atomic Ninja... Reck Maverick!

Pilgrim: Can you see how Shawn Stevens is getting angry here?

Almanti: I don't know why though to be honest with you. Reck did say that he was going to put the hatred aside for this match so he and Shawn can work together as a unit.

Pilgrim: Guess somebody forgot to tell Shawn that.

Reck rolls into the ring and as he gets up, Shawn walks directly over to him, the two engaging in a ferocious stare down.

Almanti: And it looks like we won't have to wait until Legendaria!

Shawn pulls the Midwest title belt from his shoulder and points to it, telling Reck that he was the champion. Reck takes a look at the belt before Shawn pulls it away, handing it to the referee. As the two continue their little tiff, “Hall of the Mountain King” by The Who plays and JR Zevon makes his way out to the stage.

Almanti: Zevon is out now.

Strolling to the ring, Vince McMahon style, he smirks and points to Reck and Shawn, mocking them for their anger towards each other. They don't seem to notice him. Nor do they care about his little attempts to frustrate them.

Huff: And now, representing the Northeast, from Flat Rock, Ohio... weighing in at two hundred and twenty pounds... J...R... ZEVON!

Zevon wipes his feet before leaning through the ropes, he smirks and keeps his distance, choosing to hide behind the referee whilst Reck and Shawn keep a watchful eye on both eachother and the strange newcomer.

Almanti: Zevon looks to want no part of the Midwest!

“The Way I Are” by Timbaland sends the crowd into a dance vibe. They hold out their hands and even the women are performing provocative dances, allowing John Anthony to push past the curtain, being covered in a purple spotlight. He thrusts the Eastern Heavyweight Championship high in the air and points to the crowd.

Huff: And introducing his partner... from Nashville, Tennessee... weighing in at two hundred and seventeen pounds... the Eastern Heavyweight Champion... JOHN... ANTHONY!

John rolls into the ring and goes towards Zevon, who quickly makes his exit, rolling out of the ring and keeping his diatance. John looks confused as Zevon refuses to have any part of the pre-match discussions.

Almanti: And Anthony looks a little confused here.

Pilgrim: Maybe Zevon is doing just what he said he would.

Almanti: Surely not.

But before the crowd can really pay much attention to the drama unfolding, the lights dim and smoke pours towards the entrance stage and “Back in the Saddle” begins to dominate. The crowd erupt as FDCM makes his confident way out, he holds his hands up in the air, and gives the traditional BANG! gesture.

Pilgrim: Flying Diamond Cutter Man has got to be one of the most entertaining champions in the whole of professional wrestling.

Almanti: He certainly does deserve to wear the belt, but one man doesn't think so.

Huff: And finally, the team that will represent the World... from Jersey City, New Jersey... weighing in at two hundred and thirty pounds... the POW Heavyweight Champion of the World... Flying... Diamond... Cutter... Man!

FDCM jumps up onto the apron and smiles casually at Reck and Shawn Stevens, who have had enough of waiting and storm over to FDCM, grabbing him and hoisting him over the top rope.

Main Event
The Best of the Best
World vs. Midwest vs. Northeast
Flying Diamond Cutter Man and Kailus Holmes
vs.
Shawn Stevens and Reck Maverick
vs.
John Anthony and JR Zevon

Almanti: And here we go!

Pilgrim: But we still have one more person left!

Reck and Stevens slam foot stomps on FDCM as John Anthony races in to even the odds, slamming his forearm into Steven's back.

Pilgrim: The two promotion champions going at it!

Anthony pulls Stevens away from FDCM and Maverick and whips him into the ropes, catching him with a perfect back body drop. Maverick grabs FDCM and goes for a whip of his own but FDCM grabs the arma nd twists, pulling Maverick in close.

Pilgrim: And FDCM goes for the Diamond Cutter!

Almanti: But Maverick just escapes!

Reck sure enough sees it coming and pushes FDCM off. The referee tries to regain some order, demanding that Reck go to his corner. As FDCM gets back up he's met with a clothesline from Anthony.

Almanti: Where is Kailus Holmes?

Sure enough, as Almanti asks, the lights dim and “Diary of Jane”'s haunting entrance riff begins to play. The other superstars ignore Holmes and continue the fight... except for Reck Maverick. He drops to the apron and stands at the bottom of the ramp.

Pilgrim: And Reck not forgetting that it was Holmes that cost him the match against FDCM and Stevens last week!

Almanti: He wants a piece of Holmes tonight!

As the song truly kicks in, Holmes makes his way out from the curtain... but he's not alone. He's got Isaac Marshall and Bailey Tinsley with him!

Pilgrim: And there's Holmes' flock!

Almanti: The Enforcer is certainly looking to inflict some damage here!

Holmes dares Reck to come up the ramp, laughing as Isaac stands right beside Holmes, crunching his fists. Reck darts his eyes for a few seconds before taking a few steps up the ramp. Holmes sees that he wants a fight and the three move down towards Reck.

Almanti: We're gonna see a fight!

As Reck gets a few steps up towards Holmes, Zevon comes from out of nowhere and tackles Reck, battering his body into the side of the guardrail. The crowd are livid as Zevon lets out a cocky smile and quickly returns to his apron's side of the ring.

Pilgrim: And what a dastardly cheap shot from Zevon there!

Holmes is quick to capitalise, and drives a knee into Reck's gut. Isaac and Bailey walk past and head to Holmes' corner, where FDCM is near, keeping John Anthony pressed against the turnbuckle. Anthony hammers FDCM's back, hoping to release the hold, but it's no use. He tries again, and again, but FDCM won't let go. Anthony is getting angry as he can't get FDCM off him, but he doesn't see Stevens comes up from behind! He leaps onto FDCM's back, using it as a human stepping stone before leaping off and planting a modified enziguri onto Anthony's temple. Stevens grabs the top rope and manages to balance himself on the comedown, preventing serious injury. FDCM is left clutching his back, having a two hundred plus athelete run on your back is not something you would enjoy.

Pilgrim: Stevens is the king of innovation!

Almanti: This match is truly living up to it's word!

Stevens goes to make the tag to Reck but Reck's not there! He's still by the ramp, with Holmes! Holmes hooks the arm and prepares to suplex Reck onto the ramps metal exterior, he points to Stevens, who begins to smile himself.

Pilgrim: And this is where the dirty underhanded tricks begin to come to play!

Almanti: If Holmes injures Reck here, then Stevens has a very strong case in keeping his title!

But Reck hammers a right, and another! He battles out of the hold, grabbing Holmes head and struggles for a DDT but Holmes now fights out of it. Stevens sees the struggle and rolls out of the ring. He marches over to Holmes and grabs the head as well, the team of the Midwest suddenly double dropping Holmes onto the ramp with a DDT. The crowd go wild as Holmes lies motionless on the floor.

Pilgrim: And Stevens has just helped out Reck Maverick!

The two stand up and stare at each other, nodding their heads in some kind of mutual respect... for the moment. But it doesn't last long as FDCM catches them off guard, leaping over the top rope and onto the unsuspecting team of the Midwest!

Crowd: Holy Shit! Holy Shit! Holy Shit!

Almanti: Did you see that?!

Pilgrim: I certainly did, Tony!

John Anthony is free to make a tag! He gets to his corner where Zevon stands. Zevon sees that Anthony wants the tag... and drops onto the apron! The crowd let their feelings known, booing Zevon and tossing their plastic cups, some filled with beer at the superstar.

Almanti: And this just proves how cowardly Zevon really is.

Pilgrim: Even though it is cowardly, he's playing a very dangerous but smart game.

Almanti: Smart or not, he is a coward, plain and simple! Hell, even Kailus Holmes got involved tonight, and he's so cowardly he pulled out of a tag match last week just so he could attack Flying Diamond Cutter Man from behind!

FDCM pulls himself back up, noticing Anthony arguing with Zevon. He rolls into the ring and stalks his opponent.

Pilgrim: John Anthony doesn't see what's behind him...

Almanti: This could be it...

Anthony turns around, finally having enough of Zevon but walks straight into a Diamond Cutter! Anthony's body bounces off the mat and flops to the outside. FDCM gets back up and gives the BANG! symbol, but doesn't see a charging Holmes, who tackles FDCM to the mat with full force!

Pilgrim: Oh my GOD!

Almanti: Holmes with the See It Coming!

Pilgrim: That Spear type move, nobody does it better than Kailus Holmes, but he's hit it on his own partner!

Kailus stands up and pulls his hair back, the crowd now turning their attention to him.

Pilgrim: This has turned into complete anarchy!

Almanti: Holmes was the first to turn on his partner, but then again, he has never been a Cutter fan!

Reck and Stevens are now up and spot that Holmes is on his own in the ring. Zevon is taking a step back and it looks like it's now two on one. Reck and Stevens smile and roll into the ring, Holmes realising what is happening. Reck smiles and rubs his hands together as Stevens glances over to spot Sara and Bailey having a bitch fight.

Almanti: And Bailey has just saved Holmes from a handicap match!

Reck and Holmes charge at each other, hammering rights and lefts as Stevens is torn between attacking Holmes or helping Sara, but when he sees Isaac Marshall moving closer to Sara he quickly grabs the top rope and leaps into the air, flying onto Marshall... who catches him in mid-air!

Almanti: Isaac Marshall has just caught Shawn Stevens!

Stevens fights back, hitting Marshall in the back of the head with forearms. Marshall charges towards a ringpost but Stevens has it scouted and pulls his body down, forcing Marshall to hammer into the metal pole head first, but the bump is awkward, not landing right and Stevens hits the back of his head also, almost knocking both of them clean out.

Pilgrim: Utter chaos. Stevens predicted this would happen. And now he is victim of it. Stevens, FDCM, and Anthony are all out. The three champions are down. Reck and Holmes are fighting as Zevon watches!

Zevon is standing on the apron coaching the two in the ring as they continue to exchange shots. Holmes gets the better of Reck with a knee to the gut. Holmes grabs Maverick by the head and tosses him through the ropes out of the ring. Zevon claps in approval. As Holmes raises his arms the crowd boos. He turns to see FDCM standing behind him breathing deep and holding his ribs. FDCM makes the "BANG!" symbol then rushes Holmes. Holmes goes for a clothesline but FDCM ducks under and bounces of the ropes, he runs back and catches Holmes with a running diamond cutter. Holmes rolls from the ring.

Pilgrim: DIAMOND CUTTER!
Almanti: I saw it.

Anthony is now crawling into the ring as FDCM waits for him to stand up so he can give another diamond cutter out. Anthony is closest to Zevon as he makes it to his feet. Zevon is laughing at him pointing behind him. Anthony goes to turn around and sees FDCM grinning. FDCM waves his hands no and points to Zevon. Anthony catches the motion but Zevon does not. Anthony and FDCM both grab an arm of Zevon and pull him into the ring. The pair start unloading punches and kicks into him. Zevon falls to the mat and covers up from all the incoming blows. Maverick runs back into the ring and tackles Anthony out of the ring through the middle rope. They both fall to the ground. FDCM picks up Zevon who finger pokes FDCMs eyes. FDCM clutches his face as Zevon recovers from his brief attack. As Zevon closes in for the kill from the crowd comes Rich Morrison. Zevon spots him and dashes from the ring. Morrison runs around to catch Zevon who runs into Shawn Stevens. Stevens clotheslines Zevon down and leaves him for Rich. Morrison grabs a chair from under the ring. But when he turns to hit Zevon he's gone.

Almanti: Zevon got away!
Pilgrim: Where'd he go?

Zevon is seen running next to the crowd and the stage as Morrison pursues him. Holmes gets to his feet near the announce table as FDCM spots this. He motions for Kailus to get into the ring. Stevens takes this time to slide in behind FDCM. Stevens punches FDCM in the back and grabs his head. Stevens tucks his head down lifts him up and hits the Sensationalizer. Holmes grins as Isaac grabs Bailey. The trio hop the barricade and leave. Stevens sits in the ring for a moment as the ref looks around at the carnage. Maverick and Anthony crawl back up and make it to their knees and lean under the bottom rope. Stevens makes the cover on FDCM.

1........

Anthony tries to crawl in but Maverick holds his leg and drops to the floor preventing him from getting in to break it up.

2........

FDCM gets his foot on the bottom rope!

3!!!!!!!!

Pilgrim: THE REF DIDNT SEE IT!

Almanti: Stevens just beat the WORLD CHAMPION!

Winners via Pinfall: The Midwest(Shawn Stevens and Reck Maverick)

Anthony and Maverick climb into the ring as Kailus, Isaac and Bailey stare from the crowd. Morrison and Zevon are seen running across the stage once more. Anthony sees Zevon and looks at Maverick wondering why he did what he did. Maverick apologizes as Stevens gets up and celebrates. FDCM rolls over and argues with the ref that his foot was on the bottom rope. Stevens grabs Reck's hand and raises it up.

Pilgrim: Are they celebrating together?!

Almanti: I believe they are! I don't know what to say!

Pilgrim: One of the few times we will ever hear that!

Anthony goes to FDCM and helps his case but with no luck. Maverick and Stevens continue celebrating the huge win. The ref hands Stevens his belt and he raises it into the air. Stevens then turns and clocks Maverick with the belt right to the face. The crowd explodes into deafening boos. Anthony grabs Stevens arm but Stevens turns and kicks Anthony in the groin. FDCM and Stevens start exchanging shots now. Morrison and Zevon make it back to the ring and start exchanging blows. Shadix comes running to the ring with a chair and has his sights set on Rich. Ci comes out to check on Reck and then gets involved with Stevens and FDCM. Erikson comes running down after Ci. Lanegan, Jones, and Neverwinter come to the ring after Shadix. The ring has over ten stars in it all fighting with each other now. Buddy Love comes down and checks on Anthony then starts kicking him. Barnett and Cormac come out at the same time and end up fighting just outside the ring. Gypsy comes out to help Lanegan as Rite of Chaos follows her and the Order follows them. The Prez comes out with the CIA as the Stoned Raiders and Rage cut them off from the crowd.

Pilgrim: The locker room has damn near emptied out!
Almanti: THIS IS HOW THINGS SHOULD BE EVERY DAY!

In the ring Reck made it back to his feet and he, Stevens, FDCM, Morrison, and Ci start throwing people out. Jones, Neverwinter, Shadix, Lanegan, Erikson, Gypsy, Rite of Chaos, the Order, and Zevon all start flying over the top ropes on every side. Stevens and Morrison seem to be working together. FDCM is solo, Reck and Ci are working as a team. The five men end up in the ring together. FDCM turns and throws out Ci as Reck tosses out Rich. FDCM and Reck both grab Stevens as a crowd gathers on the entrance ramp. Reck and FDCM grab Stevens by the pants and arms and toss him over the top rope onto the pile. Everyone falls back down. Like dominoes. Stevens gets up almost unscathed. A few men in the pile stand back up only to see Reck come flying over the top rope into a flipping senton. He crashes on top of everyone once more knocking the pile down. FDCM stands in the ring alone as the crowd is going crazy.

Pilgrim: Reck and FDCM used Stevens as a lawn dart and tossed him right onto the POW lockeroom!

FDCM grabs his title and tosses it over his shoulder. Just then he turns to see Kailus standing in the ring again. Kailus hits the "See It Coming" again. The belt flies out of the ring by the announce table. Bailey runs and grabs it, she climbs into the ring as Holmes stands over FDCM. Bailey hands Holmes the title and raises his hand in the air.

Pilgrim: Holmes think he won already. This is sickening!
Almanti: It's all about strategy!
Pilgrim: Fans we are out of time. See you at Legendaria!

The show ends with the camera zooming in on Holmes with the title belt as the dozens of downed POW stars start to make it to their feet.
