Date: September 16th, 2007
Location: EnergySolutions Arena; Salt Lake City, Utah
Main Event: Spike Kane vs. Jack Manson
Notes: Collision is stacked full of great matches this week and should be an incredable show. Could we see a new Xtreme Champion crowned? The Empire takes on No Warning Shots in two matches, which team will walk away from Collision in one piece? The main event should be one for the ages as Spike Kane attempts to knock of two nCw champions in two weeks.... This might possibly be the biggest Collision yet.
Commentators: Eric Hardy & Kelly Fox

{Collision opens up to the sounds of Daughtry's "There and Back again" after panning the crowd getting a good shot of the roaring fans holding up signs and cheering, the camera focuses on Eric Hardy and Kelly Fox at ringside.}

Eric Hardy: Ladies and gentlemen welcome to this weeks Collision. What a show we have for you tonight. Two, count it, two matches are scheduled tonight that include members from both The Empire, and newly formed, No Warning Shots.

Kelly Fox: That's right. My boys Ortega and Kane keeping The Empire in control tonight, and not only that your's truely will be at ringside for Ortega's match.

Eric Hardy: That's right Kelly. You and Ortega against The Burning and The News. Hopefully you will keep yourself to yourself tonight and let this match go off without a hitch.

Kelly Fox: Only if The News keeps his boring self out of the match.

{{:"This Dark Day" by Twelve Stones hits the speakers, the lights flash in time with the drums.}

Eric Hardy: Hey what's this? Isn't that Christian Kane's music?

Kelly Fox: Yeah I think so Eric. What does he want?

{{And as the song kicks in, Christian Kane walks out onto the rampway. He stands their soaking in the cheers and boos and poses, before sprinting to the ring, sliding into the ring and jumping to his feet. He climbs the turnbuckle arms extended as he shows off his physique. He jumps off the turnbuckle and grabs the mic from the announcer.}

Christian Kane: You know, i've kept a low profile since I arrived here. Not because i'm intimidated from anyone here, hell no, but because I've been keeping tabs on the goings on. Mainly on my brother, Spike Kane.

{{The crowd boo loudly at the mention of Spikes name.}

Kelly Fox: Total disrespect for our future National champion Eric. These fans make me sick.

Eric Hardy: They are entitled to their own opinion Kelly.

Christian Kane: He's kept himself busy here. Undefeated streak and even stealing a win over the World champion. Impressive. But he still won't be better than me. Nobody is. He has gained some powerful friends here, and also some powerful enemies. I saw what happened to our sister thanks to Spike. But that's not enough. He needs my help to be truely great. That's why... I WANNA JOIN THE EMPIRE!

{{The crowd boo more}

Eric Hardy: Well it looks as though Spikes brother wants to follow in his footsteps and join The Empire.

Kelly Fox: This kid wouldn't stand a chance in The Empire. He has no place with us. Spike doesn't need this jack asses help. Brother or no brother Spike will be great.

Christian Kane: Come on guys, you know this place wouldn't be anything if it wasn't for The Empire. So... Davey Ortega, I know you're the head honcho of The Empire. You need me on your side t.......

{{"The Wicked End" by Avenged Sevenfold blast over the P.A system and Spike walks out hastily to a huge chorus of boo's. He doesn't take any notice of them as he heads to ringside.}

Kelly Fox: The cavalry has arrived in the form of Spike Kane Eric. Here to shut his brother up for good.

Eric Hardy: Well here's the most talked about man in nCw coming to ringside. We all know what he done this week to Manson's family.

Kelly Fox: Oh shut up Hardy. What about Manson? Taking Spikes sister and pulling a gun on her?!

{{Spike reaches the ring and walks up to his brother and takes the mic from him}

Eric Hardy: That wasn't Manson, it was that voice in his head. Manson didn't know what was going on.

Kelly Fox: You really believe that freak? Get real Eric. Poor Freya was in a state when we found her.

Spike Kane: What the hell are you doing? Coming out here and saying I need your help? Do you realise my acheivments greatly over shadow yours? Why would I, or even The Empire, need your help?

{{Christian angrily protests to Spike, who still has the mic}

Spike Kane: Christian, brother, do me a favour and stay out of my way. I don't need Ortega to tell you you ain't Empire material. Just worry about yourself, not me.

{{A chorus of ASS-HOLE ring through the arena as Christian snatches the mic from Spike's Hand.}

Christian Kane: How dare you! I'll kick your ass right here right now!

Eric Hardy: Spike's brother challenging him to a fight right here right now!

Kelly Fox: Kick his ass Spike! You won't break a sweat on this guy and still be fit for taking out Manson tonight!

{{Spike angrily snatches the mic back and raises it to his lips. He's about to speak when "If you were there beware" by the Arctic Monkeys starts over the P.A system. The crowd erupt with cheers as Jack Manson runs down the ramp to the ring. Spike smiles and motions him to bring it on with his hands.}

Eric Hardy: Oh my god here's Jack Manson!

Kelly Fox: Run Spike! Save your energy for the main event!

{{Manson slides under the bottom rope and quickly stands up. Spike holds his hands up in surrender and mouths something to Manson. He just looks at him with fire in his eyes. He steps forward with his fist raised and Spike steps back still holding his arms up. It seems as though he has calmed Manson down when all of a sudden he jumps towards Spike. Quickly reacting Spike drags his brother in the way and he takes the full brunt of Manson's clothesline. Kane rolls out the ring and walks backwards up the ramp smiling to Manson and pointing at him. Manson simply stands up and watches him exit the stage. Christian rolls over holding his neck and slowly begins to stand up. Manson turns around and see's him. The fans cheer loudly.}

Eric Hardy: Oh no what's Jack gonna do now? Spike dragged his brother into the line of fire to take the force of Manson's attack.

Kelly Fox: Smart tactic if you ask me.

{{Christian sees Manson approach him and protests to him on his knee's. Manson grabs him by the throat and lifts him to his feet. Kane frantically tries to loosen Manson's grip but can't.}

Eric Hardy: Don't do it Jack!

{{Manson whips Christian into the ropes and on the rebound grabs him and sets him up for the Maniac Spine Crusher. He holds it for a moment before performing it. Kane rolls around in agony and holds his back as he rolls out the ring. Manson simply watches him writhe in pain. He pics up the microphone as the fans cheer. But it's not Manson's voice that comes through.}

Jack Manson: Spike. Now we are even. You attacked Jack's mother and father, and I attacked your brother and sister. The only thing that is left for me to do is take you out tonight. And believe me I will.

{{He drops the microphone and steps out the ringand heads towards the back.}

Eric Hardy: Uh-oh Kelly. Looks like Manson's alter ego is the one responsible for that. We'll be right back after this commercial break everyone.

{{Commercial Break}

{"Aces High" by Children of Bodom hits and the fans in the arena give a mixed reaction as Inferno walks out from the back. He is wearing his usual baggy camouflage shorts and his typical black t-shirt. He looks out into the crowd and seems satisfied at the reaction. He slowly makes his way down the ramp and then climbs into the ring through the ropes and climbs up onto the turnbuckle and peers out into the crowd. He then stands looking up the ramp as he awaits the arrival of his opponent for the evening.}

Eric Hardy: Inferno looks ready for action here tonight.

{"Tarantula" by the Smashing Pumpkins hits and the fans in the arena start going crazy for the returning Logan Quicksilver. Within moments of Billy Corgan's voice booming the resident Canadian Superstar Logan Quicksilver comes flying out the entranceway, exloding down the ramp towards the ring. Blues lights flutter all throughout the arena, giving a rave like atmosphere. Quicksilver climbs the steps to the ring apron. He jumps the second turnbuckle, turns toward the fans, and shows them his appreciation. He then jumps over the top rope into the ring, as the music fades out, and Logan stands in the ring staring at Inferno who is standing across the ring from him.}

{The referee checks to see that both men are ready for their match and then calls for the bell.}

{ Logan and Inferno lock up in the middle of the ring and Logan gets the upper hand by shocing Inferno down to the mat. Inferno gets up quickly though and charges at Logan. Logan catches Inferno in mid high cross body and slams him down to the mat.}

Fox: Thats a quick way to slow down the powerhouse.

{Logan goes to the ropes and comes back with rolling thunder onto the chest of Inferno. Logan slips to the outside of the ring and slaps the hands of some of his fans at ringside.}

Fox: Logan needs to execute, not show off.

Hardy: I dont know, seems that Inferno is not on his game here tonight.

{Logan jumps up onto the apron and catapults himself over the top rope giving a huge legdrop across the throat of Inferno. He then goes for a cover. 1... 2... and Inferno manages to kick out.}

Fox: It seems that Logan has put out the Inferno tonight.

{Both men get to their feet here, and they lock up once again in the middle of the ring. Inferno throws Logan into the ropes, and is looking for a clothesline. Logan ducks under the clothesline and hits the ropes on the far side. Logan goes for a leapfrog but he is caught in midair by Inferno who drops him to the mat with a huge powerbomb. Inferno signals that he is going to go for the Inferno Driver. He goes to pick up Logan. But Logan rolls up Inferno 1... 2... and Inferno kicks out again. Logan gets quickly to his feet and waits for Inferno to get to his feet. Logan off the ropes, and he hits the scissors kick! Logan signals to the crowd and heads to the top rope.}

Hardy: Logan is looking to end this one now.

{Logan from the rop ropes hits the SPIRIT OF THE WEST!}

Fox: It's lights out for the Inferno.

1... 2... 3.

Hardy: There you have it, the winner tonight, making his successful return, Logan Quicksilver!

Fox: He schooled Inferno here tonight.

{The camera switches to backstage to see Reckless Jack standing in front of the nCw banner. It's black and big, it's a banner. Think about it kids. Anyways, Reckless Jack, just fresh off the first main event of Suspense and winning it. A great moment for Reckless Jack however, he adjusts his Trivium skull cap and pulls out a microphone from his DevilDriver hoodie. He flicks it on and puts it up to his mouth.}

Reckless Jack: You know, the one thing on everyone's mind right is where is Reckless Jack going to end up. Is he going to go to The Empire or is he going to go to No Warning Shots. You see, right now, both sides have been calling me and calling me. I have no idea which way to go here people because let's face it here, I have history on both sides. On the Empire, there is Spike Kane, my brother. Spike and I have a very huge problem as you saw a couple of weeks ago. On the flipside, I have a history with Lance Ryan in No Warning Shots. It dates all the way back to early 2006. I screwed him over in a title match and I feel he might do the same to me. See my problem here?

{The camera zooms into Jack's face.}

Reckless Jack: No Warning Shots, The Empire, this is the face of Reckless Jack. Get to know it. Get it stored in your memory because the next time you see this face, I will have made my decision. The whole world will know where Reckless Jack is going here in nCw. Will I side with my brother, Spike Kane? Or will I side with a man I have a storied history with, Lance Ryan? National Championship Wrestling, Reckless Jack has indeed arrived and no matter where I go, I will make an impact. I will become the face you remember. The Self Revolution is bringing a war... but who is it going to be with... I'll leave you tonight that. Enjoy the rest of your show.

{The camera slowly zooms back out as it fades back to ringside.}

Eric Hardy: Well Reckless Jack did come back in a big way last night, and he seems ready to make a huge impact on nCw.

Kelly Fox: Indeed he does. But now we have to go to another commercial break.

{{Commercial Break}}

{"Down" by 311 hits the PA System and the fans in the arena show their appreaciation as they know that nCw's resident rock star is about to make his presence felt. He runs out onto the stage and runs to both sides of the stage throwing his hands up in the air to show that he loves the reaction. He then walks down the ramp slapping hands with the fans on his way to the ring. He slides into the ring and steps onto the second rope holding one arm up high in the air as the fans continue to cheer.}

Eric Hardy: I have a feeling that The Rockstar may be a little less jovial once his opponent gets out here.

Kelly Fox: As much as I hate to say it, I have to agree with you on this one. TVO is never in a good mood, but these two will have to keep it technical in their match tonight.

{The lights fade to black, as "St. Anger" by Metillica begins to blare, yellow and white pyro shoots out from the entrance as Victor "The Violent One" Korzenieski emerges from the smoke. He makes his way to the ring very slowly making sure to smack the hands of the fans. He enters the ring and makes his way to the corner and cracks his knuckles while waiting for this match to begin. As soon as the music ends the referee calls for the bell and this one is underway. TVO and Johnson circle the ring and look as though they will lock up but instead TVO lays Johnson out with a thunderous clothesline. }

Hardy: This one is underway in true TVO style.

{TVO goes to pick Johnson up off the mat but Johnson hits TVO with a strong shot to the gut that takes him back a step. The two finally lock up and TVO gets the upper hand. He scoops Johnson up and delivers a bodyslam. As soon as Johnson hits the ground TVO grabs an arm and locks in an arm bar. Johnson though manages to get an arm up and delivers three stiff shots to the head of TVO and both men get back to their feet.} Johnson sends TVO into the ropes, and leaps over TVO's head. He turns in time and delivers a dropkick to the chest of TVO and TVO looks stunned as he rolls to the outside to regroup.

Hardy: One area that TVO is outdone in this one is speed. He will need to slow Johnson down somehow.

Fox: TVO has been in this business a LONG time, he will figure it all out.

{TVO sucks Johnson in by jawing him from the outside. Johnson comes over to the ropes and starts talking back, TVO though grabs Johnson by the legs and knocks him down to the mat. He then slides into the ring and starts delivering stiff kicks to all of the joints of Johnson. }

Fox: See. All is again right in the world.

{TVO picks Johnson up and throws him into the corner. He follows Johnson in looking for an avalanche, but Johnson gets out of the way and TVO gets a taste of nothing but turnbuckle. Johnson then runs in and grabs TVO and delivers a bulldog. The fans erupt at this turn of fortune for the Rockstar. Johnson then turns and delivers a standing moonsault onto TVO and goes for the pin. 1... 2... TVO powers out and launches Johnson across the ring.}

Hardy: It will take much more than that to polish of TVO. This guy is a legend.

Fox: And evidently Johnson is a siv.

{TVO and Johnson both get to their feet at the same time and Johnson visibly upset at being tossed across the ring charges at TVO, TVO sidesteps him though and delivers a drop toe hold to Johnson. He then rolls up the leg and locks on a half crab. Johnson is visibly hurting from the torque on the leg and is reaching for a rope but is way out of position for that. Johnson does a push up of sort, and is looking to roll through the hold, but TVO locks even more torque onto the leg forcing Johnson back onto the mat. TVO finally breaks the hold, and he is now picking Johnson up off of the mat. Johnson is heavily favoring his right leg though.}

Fox: That is how you slow a man down for sure. Take out a tire.

{TVO scoops Johnson up high in the air, holds him in place and lets the blood rush to his head, and then drops him down hard onto the mat with a suplex. TVO then rolls over for a cover. 1... 2... Johnson gets his shoulder up just in time. TVO gets up and he doesn't let up in true fashion. He goes to the corner and climbs up into the high risk district.}

Hardy: This could be a mistake.

{TVO comes off the top rope looking for a leg drop to the back of the head of Johnson but nobody is home. Johnson saw that one coming and he gets out of the way.}

Hardy: Johnson had TVO scouted there.

{Johnson gets to his feet, still favoring that right leg though. He drops an elbow to the head of TVO and then gets him off of the mat and delivers a huge back-breaker. Johnson then gets up and is sizing up TVO, waiting for him to get back to his feet. TVO does so and is met with a running clothesline by Johnson. TVO gets right back up though and is quickly given another clothesline by Johnson. This time TVO is slower back to his feet.}

Fox: Johnson is going to try for the trifecta here.

{Johnson goes for the third clothesline but TVO gets out of the way. TVO thinks that he has avoided contact but as he turns he catches a spinning kick to the face and he goes down hard. Johnson now signals to the crowd that he has TVO right where he wants him and he sets up to lock in what he calls the Fade Away. As TVO gets to his feet Johnson locks it in, and TVO goes into battle mode. He is fighting hard here. He gets to the corner and pushes off the ropes falling backwards, but this only enables Johnson to better lock in the Fade Away. Thinking quickly TVO delivers some hard shots to the legs of Johnson so he cant wrap the legs in to make the move tighter. TVO manages to get back to his feet, clearly tiring from the fight that he is putting up. He manages though to slam Johnson into a corner three times and both men go down.}

Hardy: This has been a hard fought match, and both men are now showing a little bit of fatigue.

Fox: Not to mention that TVO is probably tired from cleaning the arena lately.

The referee starts to give his ten count as both men are down.

{At the count of eight, both men are getting to their feet. TVO grabs Johnson and is looking for The Violent Drop. Johnson slips out though and hits The Stroke! Johnson then runs to the corner turbuckle, goes to the top rope...

Hardy: BURN OUT!

{The referee counts the pin... 1... 2... 3!}

Hardy: The Rockstar has pulled this one off! What a great match though. These two men poured their all into this one!

Fox: Indeed, but TVO will continue to pour out the javex when he mops up tonight. He is still known as the nCw janitor!

Hardy: Indeed, but this man will not go away. I see gold in his future, this after all was not his element. What a fantastic match though.

{{Commercial Break}}

{The scene changes to backstage where we see No Warning Shots standing with Chad Lights.}

Chad: I am standing here with Lance Ryan, Cassandra Ryan, The Burning, and Jack Manson, better known as No Warning Shots. First off, I want to take this opportunity to say congrats to Lance and Cassandra on the announcement of their coming child.

Lance: Thank you Chad, indeed it is a great day. I will now have a child to carry on the name of the only true icon in this business. It has been an amazing week, and frankly, I could never have picked a better woman. This child is going to be god's gift to this planet.

Cassandra: You are such a modest man Lance.

{The four laugh.}

Chad: In all seriousness Lance, tonight you have the night off but Jack and The Burning have huge matches against Spike and Davey Ortega respectively. What are the plans tonight?

Lance: I will be close by these two tonight, making sure that they get fair matches, and do not fall victim to the numbers game. That is what we are about, and that is why The Empire will fall. Their may be success in numbers, but there is no way that you can see us coming, there is zero reaction time.

Chad: Finally, rumors are spreading that Reckless Jack may in fact be joining NWS, what can you say about that?

Lance: There is no hiding the fact that RJ and myself have history, but in this sport you need to be able to put everything behind you. RJ and I have talked, I will no longer hide that. Now he needs to make a decision. He is either with us or in the cross hairs. I respect the hell out of RJ and hope that he makes the right decision.

Chad: That's all for now, and let's get back to ringside.

Eric Hardy: Very interesting, but now we have another exciting match in store for us.

{Both men make their respective entrances and wait on opposite side of the ring waiting for the ref to ring the bell.}

Eric hardy: Both men look ready, and here we go!

{As the bell rings the two look across the ring intensely at each other. They then begin circling each other in the ring until the pair meet in a tie-up in the center of the ring. Leviathan wastes no time in testing stregth, instead kneeing Joe Everyman in the gut immidiately. Joe Everyman hunches over and Leviathan attacks him with hard forearms to the back of his head. Joe Everyman tries to charge Leviathan into the ropes but Leviathan uses his experience to wrap his right arm around the head of Joe Everyman and drop him with a DDT! Leviathan tries a quick pin! One...Two..Joe Everyman kicks out! Leviathan gets up and begins kicking Joe Everyman in the ribs as he attempts to get to his own feet. He finally pulls himself up and Leviathan connects with a pinpoint kick to knock Joe Everyman back into the ropes, but he then attempts to clothesline him over the top but Joe Everyman ducks and back body drops Leviathan over the top rope and to the floor below!}

Eric Hardy: The styles of these two men look to be coming along nicely here.

Kelly Fox: It wont be coming along too nicely for Joe Everyman when Leviathan gets him in the ring, and grounded.

{As Joe Everyman looks down at Leviathan who is lying on the mats outside the ring, he nods his head to the cheering crowd before pulling back on the top rope and slingshotting himself over the top and onto Leviathan! Leviathan rolls around on the mat in pain as the crowd rise to their feet in approval, chanting "Joe Everyman! Joe Everyman! Joe Everyman!". Joe Everyman uses this to help him get back to his feet quickly and he then lifts Leviathan to his feet also, before chopping him hard across the chest! Leviathan staggers back onto the barricade and Joe Everyman leaps up onto it and grabs the head of Leviathan from behind then twists round and nails him with a Tornado DDT onto the mats! The referee steps his count to go out and check on both men, with Leviathan holding his head on the floor!}

Eric Hardy: It didn't take long for the action to get going here.

Kelly Fox: I still think Leviathan will do what's needed.

{Joe Everyman rolls himself back into the ring and gets his breath back as Leviathan tells the ref that he is fine on the outside and beings to make his way back into the ring. As soon as he roles in though Joe Everyman is all over him, stomping on his back before he can return to his feet. After relentless stomping, Joe Everyman pulls Leviathan up by his hair and throws his right arm over his own head, then lifts him and suplexes him! He pins...One...Two..Leviathan kicks out! Joe Everyman gets back to his feet again and once again pulls Leviathan back to his feet, but this time Leviathan uses his initiative and knees Joe Everyman in the gut. Joe Everyman hunches over and Leviathan pushes his head between his own legs before lifting him above his own head and dropping him in a powerbomb! Both men lay on the mat after the move but Leviathan reaches across and pins! One...Two...Joe Everyman kicks out!}[

Eric Hardy: Neither man prepared to take a loss here.

Kelly Fox: But one of them will regardless.

{Everyman lays there for a moment before the crowd begin to chant his name in unision. Everyman nips up as Leviathan slowly gets to his feet, he turns around right into Joe Everyman's Twist of Fate. Leviathan hits the deck and Everyman runs to the turnbuckle, slauting the crowd before leaping off the turnbuckle with the Swanton Bomb, he covers Leviathan....1.....2.....3!}

Eric Hardy: and Joe Everyman picks up a rather decisive victory here against Leviathan!

{{Commercial Break}}

Kelly Fox: During the commercial break both Ace and Showtyme made their ways to the ring and this match is ready to go.

Eric Hardy: Both men impressed the nCw staff with their action in the three way last week, who will step forward now and show the staff even more?

{The bell rings and the two competitors begin to move, circling the ring with their arms outstretched. Showtyme flexes his fingers and Ace follows suit before they both step towards each other for the initial lock up. Ace gains the advantage right off and twists behind Showtyme locking him up with a hammerlock. Showtyme cries out with an initial reaction rather than the pain. Ace dictates Showtyme's movement for a mere second before Showtyme spins around and locks up a hammerlock on Ace instead. Ace slaps his shoulder and somehow manages to reverse the hold..again! Showtyme now grimaces as Ace locks the hold, before Showtyme jumps off his feet, using the second rope to fall backwards with amazing agility to perform a modified springboard reverse DDT laying Ace out and freeing himself from the hammerlock.}

Eric Hardy: Wow some inspiring ring awareness and agility from Showtyme there.

Kelly Fox: They don't call him the Showtyme for nothing!

{Showtyme grabs Ace's head from behind and locks in a sleeperhold. Ace flails his arms around as Showtyme locks in the move. However Ace manages to grab a hold of the ropes and the ref forces Showtyme to break the hold he refuses and the ref begins the five count to disqualification. One....Two....Three....Four..Showtyme lets go. Ace rolls out of the ring clutching his throat as Showtyme gets to his feet being berrated by the referee.}

Eric Hardy: Showtyme really does things his way.

Kelly Fox: By his way, you mean breaking the rules, right?

{Showtyme runs off the ropes and runs full pelt towards where Ace stands outside. Showtyme dives over with a rope flip but Ace catches him and uses Showtymes own momentum for a sit out powerbomb! Showtyme hits the mats outside with a sickening thud and Ace rolls backwards, obviously catching a little pain himself during the move. The crowd are on their feet, chants of "Holy s***" mix with "nCw!!"}

Kelly Fox: Holy crap...I can't believe that just happened!

{Ace slowly gets to his feet, dragging Showtyme with him. He rolls Showtyme into the ring and begins to climb up himself. He looks to the crowd and poses, flexing his muscles on his arms, soaking up te adoration of the crowd. This gives Showtyme the tiny break he needed and with insane speed, he knees Ace in the gut as he turns around and jumps over Ace catching his legs as he lands on his feet ringside, pulling him down and nailing a sunset flip powerbomb! Ace crumples as he hits the mat and Showtyme drops to a knee as he tries to recover from the earlier move.}

Kelly Fox: You won't hear me say this much....but I agree with the crowd. Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME!!

Eric Hardy: Me too....me too.

{The ref however does not think that it is awesome, as he begins to initiate the count out procedure. One......Two.......Three.......Four...Showtyme is on his feet, using the ring apron...Five......Six.....Ace is using the barricade to get to his feet.....Seven.....Eight...Showtyme Rolls into the ring.....Nine...T-Ace manages to slide into the ring JUST in time. Showtyme is on him in an instant however and rolls him over for a pinfall. The ref counts One....Two..kickout!}

Kelly Fox: Don't ask me why, but i thought Showtyme had it there.

Eric Hardy: I was praying...DAMN YOU!!

{Ace arm is raised vertically in defiance, and Showtyme backs off allowing The Ace the chance to get to his feet, which of course, he does. The two men stand opposed once again, respect for their prowess radiating off both men. Showtyme moves forwards and Ace reacts, charging for a clothesline, Showtyme ducks under and as Ace returns he slams a superkick right into the jaw of Ace. Ace falls flat on his back, as Showtyme instinctivly jumps off the ropes and back for a springboard leg drop. Showtyme goes for the cover on Ace, but Ace grabs Showtyme's tights and rolls through for a cradle pin. The ref counts. One....Two..kickout! Showtyme rolls back slapping his hands off his legs as he drops and front dropkicks Ace right in the face before he can even do anything.}

Eric Hardy: I don't think that Ace can compete with Showtyme's speed!

Kelly Fox: I think Showtyme also has a mean streak too...

{Ace recoils and rolls to the corner, covering his face. Showtyme charges but Ace slides forwards and catches Showtyme off guard with a drop toe hold, sending Showtyme face first into the bottom turnbuckle. Ace grabs Showtyme from behind and rolls through with him till he gets to the position to lock in a figure four leglock, right in the center of the ring!}

Kelly Fox: Showtyme's time could be up!

Eric Hardy: Not a chance!

{Showtyme cries out as he reaches for the ropes with his left hand, to no avail, he then reaches with his right hand...again to no avail. He slams the mat in anger as he's unable to reach the ropes. A cocky grin spreads across the face of The Ace as he applies more pressure in the hold. Showtyme writhes and struggles to get out of the hold, laying on the mat, oh the ref counts. One..Two..Showtyme gets up, he writhes madly before he tries to roll over. He surges left, no effect, he surgers right and almost turns over, he goes left again and with the momentum manages to flip himself onto his stomach forcing Ace to turn too. Ace cries out as his legs bend the way they weren't ment to. He reaches out for the ropes but he can't reach them. He know writhes in pain and anger as he cannot break the hold. However, the strain is still on Showtyme and to prevent further damage to himself he releases the hold. Both men lay on the mat to recover from the move.}

Kelly Fox: These two men are putting on one hell of a spectacle!

Eric Hardy: Match of the night to say the least!

{The two men get back to their feet. Showtyme charges at Ace and ducks underneath him, stopping right away and jumping up for a Pele Kick, but Ace ducks it, as Showtyme lands on his feet Ace launches him with a HUGE German Suplex! Showtyme crumples in the corner as he begins to use the turnbuckle to get back up. Showtyme is up and with pure anger charges Ace, but Ace delivers a swift kick to the gut and places Showtyme's head just in the right place ...and executes the FameAcer!!! The crowd errupt as Ace nails his signiture move. He rolls over for the cover.}

{The ref counts.....One....Two...Thr-KICKOUT!! Showtyme kicks out. The crowd are on their feet. Ace gets up holding three fingers to the ref, the ref simply shakes his head as Showtyme slowly begins to get to his feet. Ace grabs Showtyme by his short hair and lifts him the rest of the way to his feet. Ace whips Showtyme off the ropes and Showtyme runs picking up speed, he bounces off the ropes and ducks under Ace on the return he then leaps to the top rope on the opposite side and dives backwards executing a springboard pele kick!! The crowd mark out, the person reading this marks out, the commentators mark out, even Ace marks out before he hits the deck. Showtyme lands on one leg and one knee as he soaks up the adoration from pretty much everyone!}

nCw Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME!! *clap clap, clap clap clap* THIS IS AWESOME!![/b]

Showtyme covers Ace. The ref counts. One.....Two....Thre-KICKOUT! The crowd once again erupt. Showtyme pulls at his hair, and the ref jumps to his feet holding up two fingers. Showtyme gets to his feet, he grabs the ref from behind and spins him around TELLING the ref that it was three. The ref shakes is head and Showtyme begins to shout at him. Behind him Ace is slowly getting to his feet, a little dazed out. He sees to snap out of it and awaits Showtyme to turn around, he does and Ace springs to life with the superkick but Showtyme ducks and Ace connects with the referee!! The ref is sent flying over the ropes and to the outside. Showtyme takes this quick chance to swiftly kick Ace in the never regions. Ace drops to the mat, not before making a comical "oww my balls!" face.}

{Showtyme looks around the ring and ringside as the ref lays out cold ringside. He then turns around but not before Ace grabs him and delivers a swift low blow of his own. Showtyme gives his own renactment of Aces face as he drops to the floor. Ace climbs over and begins to pummel Showtyme's face. Showtyme returns punch for punch as the two men begin to roll around the ring in a straight up brawl! The two men then fall out of the ring in the brawl. The two men fall apart. Showtyme is first to his feet and he grabs The Ace, slamming his face into the ring post. He then rolls Ace onto the announcers table before rolling back into the ring.}

Kelly Fox: I don't like where this is going...quick, move!

Eric Hardy: Run like hell, Showtyme's insane!

{Showtyme jumps and runs full pelt off the opposite ropes he comes running back even faster and jumps up onto the top rope before catapaulting himself off the ropes for a springboard...oh my god...SHOOTING STAR PRESS THROUGH THE ANNOUNCERS TABLE!! But Ace moves out of the way! Showtyme crashes and burns!!}

Eric Hardy: My god, that does not look good for Showtyme, he seems to be in intense pain!

Kelly Fox: High risk moves can do that...

{Ace quickly reacts and drags Showtyme to his feet, Showtyme is struggling really badly to keep up on his feet and Ace throws him into the ring. Ace also goes to grab the referee and slides him in. Before climbing back in himself. Showtyme lays in the ring clutching at his leg, his face a mask of pain. Ace slides back in and drags Showtyme to his feet again, lifting him up and placing him sitting on the top turnbuckle. Ace climbs up facing him, before smirking. He hooks Showtyme, and jumps off...ACE-PLANT OFF THE TURNBUCKLE!!!}

Kelly Fox: ...I don't believe what I'm seeing!

Eric Hardy: Even Dr. Pepper would struggle against such xtreme moves as that!

{The Ace covers.....one.....two.....three!}

Eric Hardy: Great, great match, both competitors gave it their all.

We cut to the backstage now where we can see Freya Kane sitting in the Empire's lockeroom. Spike Kane walks past taking a top off as he walks off towards the shower area, and the camera zooms in one Freya. Freya is watching the TV, and she's watching the scene from earlier, where Jack chased off Spike and beating down Christian Kane. Freya leans forward and places a hand on the tv as it shows a close up of Jack Mansons face.

Freya: Such a handsome man....

Freya giggles a little as she looks at the determined look on Jack Manson's face.

Freya: one day soon Jackie...we will be together, our love is more pure than anything else....

Spike walks back into the room and Freya sits back quickly. Spike looks over at her raising an eyebrow.

Spike: Who where you talking to?

Freya: Nobody...just watching tv..

{Spike nods as he turns away and begins to prepare for his match tonight with Jack Manson. Arguably the biggest match of his nCw Career, this is about more than a title now, things are personal. Who will stand tall, and will the war of the Empire and No Warning Shot spill over?}

{{Commercial Break}}

Kelly Fox: It's time to see an Empire win here tonight, can't wait to see it.

Eric hardy: Kevin Slater is no push over Ms. Fox, trust me, he'll give Anthony everything he can take.

{The lights go out in the arena then TNT By AC/DC begins to blare over the sound system. about 10 seconds into the song You see John Anthony emerge from the curtin followed by Armelli. He walks out and crosses his arms and stops at the top of the ramp then pyro shoots off behind him As the Pyro is shooting off Armelli is pointing at Anthony. He then walks to the ring with his arms at his side followed by Armelli. When he gets to the apron and he stands there for a few seconds before jumping on the apron. You see Armelli walking up steps and walks through the ropes. Before Anthony steps through the ropes he wipes his feet off. He gets in the ring takes his sun glasses off and throws them to the crowd. He walks to each of the turnbuckles raising his arms high in the air. As Anthony is going to each turnbuckle Armelli is talking to the ref. Anthony steps down and walks to the far corner waiting for the bell to sound.}

Kelly Fox: See how determined Anthony is… I'm telling you… easy win…

Eric Hardy: Whatever Kelly, I think Kevin Slater deserves a lot more credit then you're giving him.

{As Slater's name is announced, the opening strings of the Dropkick Murphys "I'm Shipping Up to Boston" starts up. As the full drums and guitars crank up, Slater steps from the curtain. He stands at the ramp for a few minutes as green spotlights circle the arena. He walks to the ring stead and with purpose. Apon reaching the ring, he looks around for a few seconds, then enters. He heads for the turnbuckle facing the camera, and mounts the second rope, spreading his hands out to the side and looking around. He then steps off, and removes his vest and glasses to wrestle.}

Kelly Fox: Well here we go!

{The bell rings and Anthony charges Slater but Slater catches him with a hip toss flipping Anthony over onto his back. After that he immediately locks in an armbar. After several moments Slater releases the hold and rolls to his feet as does Anthony, Anthony though is a second slower and as soon as he gets up and turns around Slater delivers a drop kick that sends Anthony back down the mat. Slater gets to his feet and drops and elbow to the chest of Anthony and then covers him 1…2…(Anthony kicks out fast after the 2.) Slater reaches down to lift Anthony to his feet but is met with a small package roll up. 1…2…(Slater breaks the pin attempt before the 3.}

Eric Hardy: Well I've gotta say, Anthony almost stole one there.

Kelly Fox: He's sneaky like that, you've gotta watch him.

{The match continues as both men quickly get to their feet. Slater kicks Anthony in the stomach and then goes for a quick lariat but Anthony ducks the arm and when Slater turns around Anthony plants him with DDT after a kick to the midsection. Anthony covers Slater and 1…2.(Slater manages to kick out again.) Anthony after the near fall pulls Slater to his feet and irish whips him into the ropes Slater comes back and Anthony delivers a huge spinebuster! Anthony takes one of Slater's legs and looks for his End of Life STF but Slater kicks Anthony in the face with his free foot and sends Anthony staggering backwards a few steps. Slater quickly rolls to his feet and attempts a discus clothesline on Anthony but Anthony ducks the initial wings and catches Slater as he turns around, taking Slater by the back of the head Anthony hits a Russion leg sweep and again covers Slater 1…2…(Slater kicks out)

Eric Hardy: This Slater just refuses to quit, there are few wrestlers that have this kinda grit and determination.

Kelly Fox: Just a matter of time Hardy….

{John Anthony pulls Slater to his feet but Slater begins laying punches into Anthony's face for his trouble. Slater takes Anthony's hand and appears like he's going to irish whip him. But Slater doesn't let go of the arm and instead pulls Anthony back and hits a huge clothesline that sends Anthony flying off of his feet. Slater waits and just as Anthony rolls over and gets back to his feet he's met with a big kick to the midsection Slater immediately takes Anthony's torso under his arm and hits a gut wrench suplex and cover Anthony. 1…2..(Anthony kicks out) Slater doesn't like the kick out stop him as he pulls Anthony back to his feet, Anthony takes a swing but Slater ducks the punch and uses Anthony's momentum to turn him around and looks for his back drop driver but Anthony flips out and lands on his feet. He pushes Slater in the back and Slater bounces off the ropes and back into the waiting arms of Anthony! Anthony attempts a german suplex but he gets the same treatment by Slater who flips out and lands on his feet! Anthony gets back to his feet fast but Just as he does he takes a huge running big boot from Slater that puts him down on his back!}

Eric Hardy: That's it! Slater has just taken Anthony's head off with that!

Kelly Fox: Come on Anthony get up!

{Slater covers Anthony and 1…2..(Anthony at the last second manages to roll his shoulder!) Slater is unmoved by Anthony's kick out and pulls him to his feet. Slater takes Anthony by the legs and draps him to the middle of the ring and is looking for his version of the High angled Boston crab! Just as Slater turns Anthony uses every ounce of strength he has left and uses Slater's momentum to swing him over and to the side, both men roll to their feet fast and Slater approaches Anthony who hits him with an arn Anderson style spine buster and then immediately flips Kevin over and locks in the STF! Slater is doing everything he can to escape. Slater is refusing to tap here but eventually the pain is too much and his body goes limp the ref checks on him then calls for the bell! John Anthony wins by by knockout.}

Kelly Fox: John Anthony picks up the win but man that Slater sure gave it his all…. This match could have went either way.

Eric Hardy: He showed a lot of guts in this match as he took that STF for nearly 3 minutes before succumbing to its effects.

Kelly Fox: He's definetly a talented individual… John Anthony was just too much for him….

Eric Hardy: My thoughts exactly, well fans we'll be back after this commercial break.

{{Commercial Break}}

{"Seek and Destroy" by Metallica begins to play as the entrance way begins to fill with smoke as the lights dim in the arena leaving just a spotlight on the foggy entrance way. Scar then slowly walks through the curtain and stands in the middle of the smoke which almost covers him entirely. His manager James Antonio follows behind him. He slowly walks down to the ring with a pissed off look on his face as normal. He walks up the ring steps and climbs in to the ring, he then walks over to one of the turnbuckles and punches them aggressively before stopping and turning round and waits for his opponent. James Antonio waits outside the rings, near the announce table. "What I've Done" by Linkin Park blares as Dave Holland's entrance begins. The lights get very intense for a moment only to cut out just before a huge explosion. Holland and "Terrible" Terry Tate burst on the scene. Scar cant wait for the action and jumps out of the ring to meet Dave on the ramp. The two begin to scuffle and Dave busts out a suplex on the ramp. Scar is hurting as Holland picks him up and leads him to the ring. Terry takes his place as ringside.}

Eric Hardy: No waits on getting the action done here tonight!

{Back in the rings, Holland dominates Scar with Russian Legsweep. His head bounces off the mat in a big way. Scar is holding his head. Holland notices this and takes his focus to Scars cranium. Holland has set Scar up for a DDT but Scar has reversed it into a DDT of his own. He immediately follows up with a hard elbow drop that hits nothing but mat as Holland rolls out. Dave put a couple of boots to his opponents head before lifting him up. He connects with a stalled side suplex. Holland makes a quick cover. }

1…2. it was only a two count.

{Holland immediately grabs Scar in a rear chin lock following the kickout. He puts the pressure on. Scar refuses to give it up. Both are back to their feet but the hold is still locked in. Scar elbows Holland in the stomach and throws him off the ropes then hits his with a huge elbow. He himself attempts a pin but only a two count came of it.}

Kelly Fox: neither one of these guys want to go down. They are putting It all on the line here and I hope to see one of these guys in the main event soon.

Eric Hardy: Wow, something positive. I have to agree with you though. These guys are really going at it.

{The fans are cheering Holland on as he makes it to his feet. Scar seems to be stalking him in some way, setting him up for a move. Spike kicks Holland in the stomach and gets him in the double underhook position for his Livin' Hell. Holland senses the danger this move could present and backdrops him over the top rope. Scar lands with a thud on the floor. Holland is on his knees from the wear and tear of this fast paced match. The fans are loudly chanting his name.}

Eric Hardy: Well Scar doesn't look as good as Dave Holland here but Dave isn't looking too sharp himself!

Kelly Fox: This match had better not end in a count-out!

{As Holland is on his knees suddenly a figure emerges from the crowd and the fans are going crazy.}

Eric Hardy: What in the hell is going on, who are those …NO!

Kelly Fox: My gawd it's Punisher, the nCw legend who won the first ever Collision main event!

Eric Hardy: My gawd, what is he doing here…

{Punisher slides under the bottom rope, with a chair he took from a fan in one hand, he raises it high and smashes it over the top of Holland's head!}

Eric Hardy: WHAT IN THE HELL!?

{The ref is ringing for the bell and going crazy in the ring before Punisher takes the chair back again and smashes the ref! After he takes care of that matter he takes the chair and smashes a lifeless Holland again. At this point Tate is signally to the backstage area screaming for Milo Holland to make the save. However at this moment the nCw Big Screen comes on showing Milo Holland laying on the concrete floor backstage. The fans are booing and Punisher is tossed a mic from the time keeper.}

Punisher: **laughing** You maybe asking yourself, "What is the Punisher doing here, he retired!" Well I'll answer that question for you. A good friend of mine once told me that the hardest part about wrestling is trying to walk away, well Davey Boone was right because I just couldn't stay away. Not with these two claiming to be the best tag team in nCw. The Hollands have no idea about nCw tradition they don't understand the legacy and the pride that comes from being crowned, that's why I've decided to come back with another nCw legend. A man who's been nCw tag team champion with 4 different partners, a former IWF, WCF and PWW tag team champion. The man who took out the "other" Holland, I present… no wait…. You bumpkins here in Salt Lake don't deserve this announcement no no, it's far too big for you… Next week is when I'll unmask my partner until then….. REAP THE WHIRLWIND!

{Punisher throws the mic down and storms out of the ring as the fans are booing like crazy.}

Eirc Hardy: I can't believe what is going here…. Kelly do you have any idea who Punisher's partner could be?!

Kelly Fox: …….

Eric Hardy: Earth to Kelly!

Kelly Fox: It.. It can't be….

Eric Hardy: Well while Kelly composes herself we'll go to commercial break.

{{Commercial Break}}

Kelly Fox: I still can't believe what we just saw but now it's time to possibly declare a new nCw Xtreme Champion!

Eric Hardy: This promises to be a great match indeed.

{Queen's I want it all hits the PA system as Dr. Pepper along with Matt Money walk out. Dr. Pepper has a bottle of DP in his right hand and takes a swig. They both continue their way down the ramp until suddenly Reckoning runs out from backstage with a grocery cart full of weapons. He shoves it down the ramp and it crashes into the back of Dr. Pepper who goes down the cart tips over.}

Eric Hardy: Reckoning takes advantage of the no rules format and has come out and started this thing early.

Kelly Fox: He sure did, Pibb and Money had no idea he was even back there.

{Reckoning runs down and shoves the cart to the side after pulling a stop sign out of it. Dr. Pepper begins to push himself up but takes the stop sign across his back for his efforts. Reckoning picks up the Xtreme title belt that was over Dr. Pepper's shoulder before he was hit with the cart, and holds it high in the air. Reckoning then takes the belt and begins whipping it across the back of Dr. Pepper, as he crawls down the remainder of the ramp, bringing both me to ringside. Pepper is helpless as Reckoning continues the assault.}

Eric Hardy: Reckoning is relentless here, Dr. Pepper can't even get to his feet because of this brutal attack!

Kelly Fox: Reck is definitely determined here to take the Xtreme title away from Mr. Pibb.

Eric Hardy: If Pepper can't find a way to get some offence in then it might be a short match. I know that.

{Reckoning continues his assault after dropping the belt by going over to the Grocery cart and pulling out a kendo stick. He makes his way back to pepper who has pulled himself up using the ring steps. Pepper turns around to see Reck taking a swing and manages to roll out of the way just in time. Reck hits the steps but quickly turns to try and hit Pepper again but Pepper is on his knee and uppercuts Reckoning right in the groan, which sends Reck slumping over and dropping the kendo stick. Dr. Pepper picks up the stop sign Reckoning was using early and climbs up on the ring apron, holding the stop sign under his arm he runs and dives driving the stop sign into the back of Reckoning! Reckoning is on the floor holding his back in pain.}

Kelly Fox: Mr Pibb turned the tides with that one.

Eric Hardy: Definetly….

{Dr. Pepper pulls Reck up and drags him over to the ring steps where he props him up in a sitting position against them. Pepper steps back and runs forward he lifts a knee and tries to drive it into Reckoning but Reck moves at he last second. Pepper is on the ground holding his leg in pain and Reckoning is back to his feet. He reaches under the ring and pulls out a table and sets it up, once he's done there he picks up the stop sign and waits for Dr. Pepper to get up, when he does Reckoning clocks him with the sign! The blow sends Dr. Pepper stumbling against the table. Reckoning pushes him the rest of the way on. Now it's Reckoning's turn to get on the turnbuckle. Reck holds up the stop sign for the fans to see then leaps off the turnbuckle putting the stop sign under his leg the moves connects and he sends Dr. Pepper through the table and both men are on the floor! }

Kelly Fox: Oh this is it here, we have our new Xtreme Champion!

Eric Hardy: I have to agree, there is no getting out of this.

{Reckoning covers and 1..2..**Dr. Pepper barely gets a shoulder up.**}

Eric Hardy: There's no way! How could Dr. Pepper kick out of that.

{Reckoning gets to his feet and brings Pepper with him. He throws the bigger man under the bottom rope and into the ring. Reckoning goes back to the grocery cart and picks up a crow bar. Reckoning makes his way back to the ring and climbs to the top rope!}

Eric Hardy: What does he plan to do now?

Kelly Fox: If I know Reckoning… and I think I do, ……something bad.

{Indeed Kelly is right because as soon as Dr. Pepper gets to his feet Reckoning comes flying off the top rope with the crowbar raised high, however just before he lands Dr. Pepper out of nowhere sprays the Dr. Pepper colored… and flavored mist and moves out of the way of the crowbar. The Reckoning tries to get the sticky liquid off of his face but Dr. Pepper puts him in position and hits his Pepper Plex! The ref gets down and counts 1…2….3! Winner: Dr. Pepper!}

Eric Hardy: My gawd, now that was a fast action packed match!

Kelly Fox: Dang right Hardy, and once again Dr. Pepper has found a way to escape an Xtreme match. I don't see how he keeps doing it….

Eric Hardy: Agreed, Reckoning was in complete control until the last few moments of the match…. You just can't make one mistake or misjudgment against Dr. Pepper because he'll take advantage in a big way.

Kelly Fox: I don't think anybody would disagree with that. How about we take a commercial break?

Eric Hardy: Sounds good to me.

{{Commercial Break}}

{The cameras cut backstage to nCw interviewer "Super Cool" Chad Lights. He is standing by with newest nCw superstar, Danny "The Vagrant" Vice. The crowd pops at the sight of The Vagrant, who holds a bottle of Jack Daniels in his hand.}

Chad Lights: Ladies and gentleman, I am standing by with the newest signee of the nCw. He is a former World, Hardcore, and Tag Team champion and one of the most feared high flyers our great sport has ever seen. I give you, Danny "The Vagrant" Vice.

{Vice takes a large swig of Jack Daniels and rudely burps into the microphone. He's unshaven and dirty looking.}

Chad Lights: Ummm...ok...well, Danny. What is it that brought you to the nCw?

{Vice ignors the question entirely as his eyes droop in a drunken stupor.}

Chad Lights: Danny? Danny? Danny are you there? Hello?

{Lights waves his arms in front of Vice' face to no response. Vice takes another pull from the Jack Daniels bottle. Lights shrugs and turns back toward the camera which zooms on him only.}

Chad Lights: Well, it seems that Danny Vice is a little "unresponsive" at the moment. However, let this not be a detraction from the return of "Texas Red" Johnny Craven, who is...

{A sound of broken glass is heard. The camera pans out to show Vice in the picture, the Jack Daniels bottle dropped on the floor and shattered. Vice' entire demeanor has changed. No longer do his eyes look faded. No more does are his lips wet with the supple fruit of Jack Daniels. He looks focused, determined, and full of rage. Lights places the microphone in front of Vice' face. But Vice snaps it away and fakes a backhanded slap toward Lights.}

Danny Vice: So you wanted a little face time with Danny Vice and then segue into Johnny Craven, huh? Well let me tell you something about that no good sonofabitch and how he ruined my life. A few months back, for the first time in my pathetic existence, I found someone who...

{Vice burps, it almost looks like he's about to vomit from the Jack Daniels.}

Danny Vice: Excuse me...found someone who truly cared about me. Someone, who very well, could have loved me. She was perfect. Everything I could ever have hoped and dreamed. And now, she's gone. Kidnapped. Stolen. Erased. Nothing is left. And me? This body that was once the peak of physical fitness, is now no more than a drunk. A lush without direction or focus, except on one thing. Finding the person who took her, and making them pay for their irrevocable sin. And I know who that man is. The man with a heart as cold as ice and as black as night. The so-called "Texas Red' Johnny Craven. And you can believe, that I will not stop, until I find his blood on my hands, and my dear Tiffany embraced in my two arms. And there is nothing...NOTHING...you can do about it.

{Vice slams the microphone down, shattering it, and storms off camera, leaving Lights in a state of utter disbelief and nCw cuts to commercial break.}

Eric Hardy: What is up with that Danny Vice… no respect at all….

Kelly Fox: I don't know Eric and I would love to stay here all night and chat but I have some business in this next match so if you will excuse me.

Eric Hardy: By all means.

{Kelly Fox grabs a microphone and heads to the ring.}

Kelly Fox: Ladies and gentlemen, it is an extreme pleasure of mine to introduce you to the man who is building the most powerful empire in wrestling history. He is a man of great talent, in-ring prowess and handsome to boot. Without further hesitation, "The Genius Macrobian" Davey Ortega!

{Ladies and Gentleman by Saliva is heard throughout the arena. Davey steps out onto the ramp and smiles very big while looking at Kelly. He waves and then waves to the fans who begin to boo. He walks down the ramp and gets in the ring, whispering something to Kelly. Bat Coutry by Avenged Sevenfold blares on the speakers as the fans erupt. "The Burning" Phillip Burns and The News pop out of the curtain.}

Kelly Fox: And now introducing, from the makers of sleep-aide, being accompanied by a low priced hack. He was the most entertaining wrestler that lives in his house until he got a dog, The Burning!

{The fans boo Kelly as she gets out of the ring. Davey is waiting for Phil. The news takes his place on the outside and The Burning gets into the ring, circling aroud with Ortega}

Eric Hardy: I am now being joined by Ruston Bourne, our general manager, here at the announce table. Thanks for joining us.

RB: Eric, its my pleasure. I haven't really had a chance to just sit back and watch some action lately and I'm hoping to do so here tonight. This match is shaping up to be huge, and I figured instead of leaving you out here all alone while Kelly is doing whatever she is doing I would come out here and lend a hand as always.

{Inside the ring, The Burning and Ortega lock it up. Burning with a go behind and he now has a waist lock applied. Ortega struggles and powers out, locking in the same. He take The Burning down and grabs a leg. He has a leg log applied but Phil rolls out, leaving Ortega on the ground. Phil stomps a shoulder and grabs an arm, locking it with his legs. Davey manages to get to his knees, still in the hold.

He pins The Burning even though his arm is still locked in. it yields a one count as The Burning releases the hold to kick out. Ortega is up and Irish whips burns off the ropes. Davey catches a neckbreaker on the way back and Burns is down. Ortega helps him to his feet and delivers a European uppercut. Burns stumbles back to be corner. Ortega charges and Burning move lat the last second. Ortega attempted a splash and only got turnbuckle.}

RB: Quick thinking there by Phil. The upper body of Ortega has got to be wearing down here.

Eric Hardy: Excellent point GM, but if The Burning takes his eye off the ball for any reason, which could possibly be why my announce partner is at ringside, he will have a huge debt to pay.

{Burning comes knocking at Ortega door with a huge right hand. Ortega clutches the shoulder as Phil applies a standing arm bar. The Burning has now got the upper hand. Burning gets Ortega in the powerbomb position. Kelly Jumps up on the ring apron. Burns takes his attention to Kelly. He yells at the ref to take care of her. He then attempts a powerbomb but he wasted too much time. Ortega manages to reverse it into a huge DDT in mid-air!}

RB: a great show of athleticism here by the other GM. The Burning had better start in with some quicker thinking if he wants to succeed here.

Eric Hardy: No doubt. Taking time to focus on other things, while in the ring some someone like the Genius Macrobian, is a death sentence.

{Reeling from the DDT, Burns gets up and stumbles to the corner. Ortega charges again, this time he connects with a Hail to the GM as Kelly distracts the referee! The Burning is holding his groin as Davey Ortega smiles and waves to the crowd who are booing horribly. Kelly still has the ref distracted and The News gets up on the opposite apron. Kelly tries to signal to the ref that there is a problem but he is focused on her. Ortega starts trash talking The News and making fun of Burns. Burns manages to sneak in his Burn Notice finisher out of desperation. He immediately drops down to the mat afterwards, still holding his groin. The referee returns to the action.

He begins a ten count. 1…2…3…4 The Burning shows signs of life as he gets to his knees. The count continues. There is obvious pain in Burns' eyes. 5…6…7

The Burning gets to his feet and stumbles to the corner. The count is broken. Burning is still clutching his groin and the ref is asking him what happened. The Burning is having trouble standing without the ropes. He lets go of the ropes and stumbles forward. Ortega has made it to his feet and ducks a clothesline attempt by The Burning. He hits a huge standing dropkick and immediately goes for the ropes and hits a HUGE GM Assault. The Burning gets the knees up and Ortega lands hard. Ortega rolls through and in sitting on his knees, clutching his sternum. The Burning Pops up and is about to deliver a kick the Ortega's shoulder but Ortega out of nowhere hits his finisher, The Setting Sun!}

RB: What a huge spear!

{The referee is counting. 1…2…3! Ortega has picked up the win. Kelly Fox rushes into the ring. She kicks The Burning once in the ribs and celebrates with Ortega. He lifts her in the air and the crowd is booing horribly. The News gets in the ring to protect his fallen friend. Ortega and Kelly get out of the ring. They hug before parting ways and Ortega heads to the back while Kelly goes back to the announce table. She exchanges some harsh word with Ruston Bourne before he gives up his seat and head to the back}

Kelly Fox: You see that Eric! That is what the empire is all about. He took out The Burning like he owed him money!

Eric Hardy: From here it didn't look THAT easy. But I don't want to get into it with you right now so lets get to a break before our main event!

{The Burning is seen getting out of the ring, to cheers of the fans.}

{{Commercial break}}

Eric Hardy: welcome back everyone. We have had a huge night so far but now it is time for the main event. Tonight we see Jack Manson vs. Spike Kane but the National title is not on the line.

Kelly Fox: And it's a good thing, too!

{The Lights in the arena go out and the crowd become a mix of cheers and boo's. Camera's flash and flicker all around as Arctic Monkeys - If you were there, beware starts up over the PA system. As the heavy guitar riff kicks in the strobe lights turn on and you can just make out the lone silhouette of a man on the entrance ramp. He raises his arms in the air and white fireworks shoot vertically into the air behind him. The lights return and he confidently walks down the ramp, with his National title hung over his shoulder, to the ring. Fans reach out to grab him but he keeps his eyes focused on the ring. He reaches the apron and pulls himself up on to it, before getting in the ring under the top rope. Once in the ring he climbs the turnbuckle and holds the National title up in the air for the fans.

The arena darkens out as guitars begin to wail over the p.a. system. A black silhouette comes over the Tron showing a Spike Impaler being hit. The guitars kick in louder and the vocals begin as Spike Kane walks out onto the stage through a huge cloud of smoke. Spike stands on the entrance ramp, his arms outstretched arching backwards slightly, his fits balled, he then puts then across his chest forming an "X" Spike gets to the ring and walks up the stairs cockily, he bounces along the apron and steps into the ring through the middle rope. Spike then walks up to the turnbuckle, looking out to the crowd before arching backwards once more, his arms outstretched sideways, fists balled, before forming the "X" once again. Spike stands on the turnbuckle smirking at the crowd, as the music dies out and the lights return to normal.

Eric Hardy: These guys left the mangers in the back tonight and I am hoping this means a clean fight.

Kelly Fox: Well good luck. Once you get a member of No Warning Shots in the ring, its over as far as fairness goes.

Eric Hardy: I was about to say that about The Empire.

{The two men circle each other and lock it up. Spike Kane with an arm drag. Manson immediately pops back up and they lock up again. Another arm drag, this time by Manson. Spike pops back up and the two quickly lock back up. Spike lock in a side headlock. The headlock is countered as Manson applies one of his own. SK powers out side a side suplex and drops Manson hard. SK puts the boots to JM but on the third stomp, JM grabs a foot and trips him up. Still holding the foot, JM turns him over and attempt to lock in n STF but Kane will have none of it. SK immediately grabs for the ropes and the hold is broken. Manson is still in control here and goes for a vertical suplex. Spike Kane uses momentum to counter and deliver a suplex of his own. Manson is holding his back. Spike walks to the nearest turn buck and gets up to the second rope. As Manson is getting up, Spike delivers a missile dropkick to the already sore back. The fans are against Spike here and he continues the assault. Spike comes with knees to the back and ribs of Manson.}

Kelly Fox: This kind of calculated assault is what The Empire stands for. Get it done by any means!

Eric Hardy: One would think that all wrestlers, not those exclusively linked to The Empire, would want to fight smart.

Kelly Fox: Yeah but only the members of my group have the brains to do it!

Eric Hardy: And that why they hold the majority of the singles gold around here?

Kelly Fox: Shut the hell up!

{Spike gets Manson off the ground and measures him up before putting him into suplex position. He lifts him up and stalls before hammering him down to the mat. It is immediately followed up by a grounded waist lock, applying pressure to the upper body of Manson. Jack is trying to break the hand as both men are now on their feet. The hands are broken free and Manson goes behind for a drop toe hold. He feverishly delivers the right hands to the back of SK's head. He now delivers a knee to the head before picking up Spike off the floor. Manson begins delivering kicks and jabs to the head and midsection of Spike. One last kick sends SK stumbling back into the corner. Manson immediately follows up by mounting the turnbuckle and rattling of punches. 1 2 3 4 5 On the fifth, Kane throws Manson off the turnbuckle, landing with a thud on his back. Spike takes off the deliver a huge kick to his back but Manson pulls the ropes down and send Spike flying out of the ring. Manson follows suit and continues the assault outside. The ref begins a count. Manson nails spike's head on the apron. He attempts an Irish whip into the ring steps but Spike has reversed it and send him flying into them instead. The already hurt spine of Jack Manson crashes into the steal. Spike rolls into the ring to stop the count at around the 7 mark and rolls back out. Manson catches him with an uppercut and rolls him on the apron with just his head sticking out. Manson delivers a huge elbows to the neck and head before climbing back into the ring.}

Eric Hardy: This already physical match-up has gotten more and more intense with every moment!

Kelly Fox: Manson should be disqualified!

{Spike is clutching his head as Manson continues the assault with kicks to the head. Spike has rolled out of the way and gets to his feet. Manson walks toward him but is met with a stiff kick to the knee and one more to the chest Spike grabs his head and hits into the top turnbuckle to pull off a tornado DDT. The impact left both men down, with Spike recovering first. Spike is now in control with a huge spine buster after an Irish whip. Spike delivers a springboard moonsault to the prone Jack Manson. Sensing that Manson is weakened, Spike signals that it is time to end this. He locks Jack's head under his arm and is getting ready for the Spike Impaler. Manson manages to avoid this and busts out his Maniac Spine Crusher! Both men are down! The referee has begun a count but before he count get to three, Maniac Jack Manson gets an arm over Spike Kane. At the last moment Spike gets the arm up.}

Eric Hardy: Holy crap! How is this man still alive?

Kelly Fox: He has got Empire blood in his veins Eric!

{Spike has a glazed over look in his eyes. Manson immediately goes for another pin but Spike kicks out even sooner this time. Manson doesn't know what to do so he decides to try his finisher again. Spike slips out and sets up his Freya's Wings move. It is in turn reversed by Manson, who backdrops him. Manson jumps the opportunity and flips him over and is actually able to lock in his STF this time. Spike Kane's head and neck are in terrible pain. Manson sees that Kane is trying to escape and begins savagely head butting him in the back of the head. Maniac Jack's mouth is busted open from the head butts. As Spike is in agony, Manson is screaming savagely trying to make him tap out and continues the head butts. Spike shows little signs of life. Left and his eyes are now closed. The ref checks him and declares that he cannot continue.}

Kelly Fox: This is bullcrap! This cant be legal. Manson was cheating, using his head as a weapon!

Eric Hardy: Last time I checked that was legal. I can't believe what we have seen here. Maniac Jack Manson has lived up to his name and has gone crazy on Spike Kane. Maniac has his own blood all over the mat from those repeated bead butts. IT is almost sickening to watch a replay.

{The referee declares Manson the winner and raises his hand. True to the No Warning Shot style, Manson helps his opponent up. Kane is now looking much better since the hold was released. Manson tell him that he was a worthy opponent and extends his hand, but Spike Kane slaps it away and mutters visibly that "We will be coming for you". Manson lets him know that "We will be ready". Spike gets out of the ring and holds his head as we walks up the ramp under his own power. He is joined on the ramp by the members of The Empire who signal that they will be coming for Jack Manson. When the camera pans back, the remaining members of No Warning Shots are in the ring. Lance Ryan hands the National title to a bloody faced Jack Manson and they stare down The Empire.}

Eric Hardy: The tension levels just rose to an all-time high here. This match was so brutal and intense we don't know if those performers will be topped. I can only assume that more will unfold as the week continues and we head into the next show.

Kelly Fox: NWS had better check their brain functions if they think they can stand up to The Empire.

Eric Hardy: Right now there is no telling how this will unfold. We have seen what both sides are willing to go through and I have to tell you that I like it. Join us next week for what we hope will be even more exciting than tonight. For Kelly Fox, I'm Eric Hardy.

{Collision goes off the air as "There and back again" cranks up. The crowd is heard chearing in the background before we fade to black.}
