("There and Back Again" by Daughtry plays of the P.A. system as Collision opens up, the camera's scan the crowds as the fans go wild, we can see all types of different signs, one saying "Kole Kaos BUY me!" being held up by some ugly redneck Orlando girl, another one that say's "Xavier Williams is my Hero!" by some gay looking emo straight edge kid, and a huge banner that wraps around section 138 that say's "Steve Awesome Blast of Champions.")
Steve Awesome: Now their's some people with class.
(We hear Steve's voice come over the speakers of your television as the camera settles on the announcer's booth, we see the normal announce team of Eric Hardy and Willy Carter sitting along side of them is the nCw World Champion and Corporate Empire member, Steve Awesome.)
Eric Hardy: Welcome to Collision coming to you live from Orlando Florida at the Amway Arena. And what a night we have in store for you folks.
Willy Carter: Indeed we do and already in the ring we have Tommy The Cat waiting for his opponent for tonight..
Steve Awesome: Shut up monkey's I got this.
(The lights in the arena go dim as a green hue takes over, green laser lights start shooting them self's towards the stage as we hear the drums for Stone Sour's "30/30 150" hit the P.A. System. as they do we see a figure slowly being raised up throw the stage once the intro drums are done and they start into their rhythmatic start of the song the figure stops, engulfed in the laser lights making it look like a digital grid of a man, Kole Kaos's head snaps upwards as Corey Taylor sings his opening lines of the song "I am a dominant gene, live as I die" pyro go shooting up out of the stage towards the top of the arena. Kole comes walking down the ramp quicker then normal.)
Steve Awesome: The man him self, the leader of the Corporate Empire, the CEO and owner of Kaos INC, the man with more money then GOD... Kole Kaos. He's going to tear this pussy up!
(Kole makes his way down the ring with out haste and rolls right into the ring under the bottom rope he gets to his feet and the ref goes to stop him from advancing but Kole just shoves the ref out of the way walks right up to Tommy the Cat, and kicks him swiftly in the nut's.)
Willy Carter: Oh come on the match hasn't even started yet!
(Tommy's cat like eye's roll into the back of his head as the ref is waving his arms for Kole to stop, Kole's music stops and the house lights come back on and the fans are booing as Tommy is hunched over, Kole shoves Tommy's head between his legs underhooks both his arms, then Kaos Bomb's Tommy the Cat up and out of the ring, Tommy hits the corner of the announcers table with a sickening thud but doesn't break the table, he just crumbles to the ground in a heap. Kole turns and snatches the microphone out of the ring announcers hand and then chases the ref out of the ring with out saying a word to him, just by using an angry stair. Kole then stops in the middle of the ring he looks around at the fans who are booing him, he just grins.)
Kole Kaos: Boo me all you want...I just saved you the agony of seeing trash like that try to compete in this ring with someone who is vastly superior to them.
(The fans boo some more and Kole just grins then turns to the entrance.)
Kole Kaos: So let's not beat around the bush all night. I know your in the back Price, I saw your so called "classic" 1932 Ford Coupe parked in the garage earlier today, so why don't you do us all a huge favor, get your cancer ridden crippled ass out here so I can kick it around the arena for a few minutes and we will be done with this little charade.
(Kole lowers the mic and waits, when out of no where the lights in the arena go completely out; we can barely see Kole in the ring as we hear a voice come over the P.A. system.)
"First you have to give up, first you have to know... not fear... know... that someday you are going to die."
(Then out of no where Stone Sour's "Made of Scars" comes playing over the P.A. system and the main stage starts to fill with smoke. The house lights start to strobe as the camera cuts from the stage back to Kole Kaos in the ring, he's crouched down with his arms resting on his legs, his hands motioning for Price to come walking down the ramp, the lights strobe, then it goes dark, the music stops, then the lights come back on in a flash.)
Steve Awesome: Kole behind you!
(Indeed there is someone behind Kole Kaos, a man dressed in jeans, a black punisher hoody, he has a black bandana wrapped around his mouth and nose, and one covering his head. He leaps catching Kole from behind and hits The Payback (backcracker) Kole bounces back up to his feet after the move stumbles forward bounces off the ring ropes turns around and boom the figure kicks him in the gut, underhooks both of Kole arm's, lifts Kole up and plants him to the mat with a double underhook DDT.)
Steve Awesome: Wait a second....
(The fans are going crazy as Kole is laid out in the center of the ring.)
Willy Carter: Is this really the "Messiah of Hardcore" Price making his debut here in nCw!?
Steve Awesome: It can't be I retired his ass!
(The man in the ring rips the hoody up off over his head taking with it the two bandana's on his head also)
Steve Awesome: No....
(Under the bandana's we see a familiar face, not that of Price, but that of James Franklin Karn, JFK. He gives a sly grin to the fans, and then turns his head to Steve Awesome, who's just standing at the announcers table in shock. JFK cross's his arms in front of him in a X, then throws them out to the side in a crooked version of the crucifix pose. "Running with the Devil" comes blasting over the P.A. system as JFK quickly rolls out of the ring and head's back throw the fans as the rest of the Corporate Empire come rushing down to the ring to check on Kole.)
Willy Carter: What does this mean!? Is JFK truly back? And why did he attack the man he brought in to the nCw!?
Steve Awesome: Shut up monkey and cut to commercial already.
(We hear the thud of Steve Awesome's headset being tossed down to the desk as we cut to commercial.)
{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
(We come back from commercial somewhere in the back of the arena, we see a door that say's "Collision GM: Spike Kane" next to that door we see Carly Robins with a microphone in hand waiting for someone.)
Carly: Carly Robins here, waiting outside of Collision's General Manager's office where I just saw JFK go walking in.
(Just as she finishes her sentence the door opens and out comes JFK talking over his shoulder to one can only assume Spike Kane.)
JFK: Thank's Spikey boy you wont regret this. Oh...what's up Carly?
(JFK gives the lady a warm smile.)
JFK: Wait...before you start...let me guess..."Why JFK did you attack Kole Kaos earlier tonight?" Right?
(She nods with a grin)
JFK: It's simple Carly, and you'll have to excuse me if I make this quick as I've angered a pack of wild dogs in the Corporate Empire, but the answer is this, to fix one of the past mistakes I've made in my life. I had some time to sit back and reflect on the actions I've taken over the past few years and well to be quite honest with you Carly, I didn't like the man I saw. So starting today I am going to correct those actions, and do what I should have done a long time ago.
(He goes to walk off but she stops him.)
Carley: And what's that? What should you have done a long time ago?
(He grins ever so slightly)
JFK: Be my own man of course.
(He walks off and we cut back to the ring for the next match)
Willy Carter: Welcome back fans, and welcome back Eric.
Eric Hardy: Shut up Willy.
Willy Carter: I'm just saying I'm happy to see you back Eric.
Eric Hardy: Shut up Eric.
Willy Carter: Sorry Willy, maybe this match between Dylan Phoenix and a puppet will cheer you up?
Eric Hardy: Sure.
Crazytown's battle cry starts and as the guitar riffs kick in pyros explode on the ring apron
"This is a battle cry!"
Dylan Phoenix struts out in a black leather jacket, he opens it up a little and talks some trash before sliding into the ring, he gets on the turnbuckle and points to the crowd before backflipping off
Eric Hardy::"Here he is Dylan Phoenix...."
Willy Carter::"He isn't really going to face a puppet is he?"
Bullet for my valentine's "waking the demon" blasts out and out comes Chris Mercury holding Tex, he makes his way down to the ring and sighs sliding Tex in, he stands the puppet up in the corner and looks to be in Tex's corner instead of his tag team partner
Eric Hardy::"Is it my imagination or does Chris Mercury look worried about the puppet?..."
Willy Carter::"Tex is his friend Eric, how can you be so mean?"
Dylan Phoenix shakes his head and laughs staring at the puppet in the corner, it stares back with it's dead eyes, Dylan looks around and mouths "Is this for real?", he walks over and picks Tex up, he laughs and hits the "before I die"(the paydirt), Dylan laughs and then notices Chris who's looking even more worried telling Tex to "get up", Dylan looks at the puppet then to his friend, he walks over and yells
Dylan::"It's just a puppet Chris, it can't feel anything..."
Willy Carter::"O...k...this is just getting a little weird..."
Eric Hardy::"Just a little?"
Dylan starts laughing and pins Tex
1...2....Tex kicks out?
Dylan gets up and shakes his head, he lays down and pulls tex on top of him as a joke
1...2...Dylan kicks out
He looks up at Chris who was halfway celebrating Dylan again shakes his head
Eric Hardy::"Dylan Phoenix is trying to show Chris mercury that the puppet isn't real....and it's not working"
Willy Carter::"This has to be the strangest match ever on NCW"
Dylan::"It can't win Chris Jesus Christ watch..."
Dylan Phoenix lays down and pulls the puppet on top of him again, this time Chris mercury grabs a hold of Dylans feet and holds them down out of the refs view
1...2...3
TEX WINS!
Dylan gets up looking shocked as Chris gets in the ring, he holds Tex up by his arm, Dylan gets tpo his feet and puts his hands on his hips shaking his head
Eric Hardy::".....what just happened here?....."
Willy Carter::"Did the puppet just win?....."
Dylan gets in Chris' face, the two start arguing, Dylan starts screaming at Chris and pointing to Tex, Then from seemingly out of nowhere Rob Diamond and Warren Suffering slide into the ring, Suffering hits Dylan from behind as Rob Diamond and Chris mercury go at it, Suffering beats Dylan down, both Diamond and Mercury grab a hold of Tex and start pulling it back and forth, warren attacks Mercury, for a small time Rob Diamond seems to have Tex back, he smiles and laughs holding the puppet up, Dylan Phoenix comes out of nowhere and spears diamond down, he mounts rob diamond and starts hitting rights to his head, warren suffering goes back after Dylan as Chris Mercury grabs Tex and slides from the ring, Dylan Phoenix too escapes from the ring, he stares at Rob and Warren in the ring. Dylan calls for a mic as they make their way up the ramp.
Dylan: You want Tex back so badly Rob? Fine, Road to the Gold, you two versus us... PUPPET ON A POLL MATCH!
Dylan drops the mic as Rob starts nodding eagerly at the chance to be reunited with Tex. Fade to the back.
(We head to the back and we can see Kole Kaos's face looking intently at someone else, staring, his jaw clinched and the vain on his head pulsing.)
Kole Kaos: So are you going to give me my match or not...Spike...
(We pan out a bit and see he's staring at Spike Kane, the GM of Collision, who in turn, is just looking at Kole with a smug grin on his face.)
Spike Kane: The match is already in place Kole, I just needed to know what type of match you wanted, and like clock work, just like he said you would, you came in here and demanded the very match he thought you would, so you got your wish Kole, this Sunday at Road to the Gold you will go one on one with JFK, in a last man standing match.
(We can hear the fans in the arena cheering for this announcement.)
Kole Kaos: Like clock work huh, I'll show him clock work.
(Kole goes to storm out of the office and Spike Kane just watches him leave still with that smug grin.)
Spike: What a fool.
{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
Eric Hardy: Welcome back fans, you joined us in time for the amazing six man tag match coming up next!
Willy Carter: Oh yeah, this match is clearly worth a watch fans. We have so many stories in this one match.
Eric Hardy: You got that right Willy, Adam Knite and Lance Ryan has been at each other throats. Derek Sitar was ordered by Brent Sampson to take Chris Phere out. Lance Ryan has been demanding a tag team title shot for weeks and Falcon and Talon, the tag team champons are on opposite teams!
Willy Carter: What more can be said about this match, don't forget that Adam Knite has been asked by Kelly Fox to make sure Phere doesn't get injured in this match.
Eric Hardy: Another good point Willy it was reported earlier that Knite would be in effect Phere's bodyguard in this match regardless, it should be a great one!
{First the Talon and Falcon come to the ring to their tag team entrance, showing their unity before the match even begins. Next up is Adam, and then phere, completely Talon's team. Derek Sitar makes his entrance and is quickly followed by Lance Ryan to round out every man in the match.}
Eric Hardy: Here we go Willy, this match is about to get started!
Willy Carter: Hot damn!
{The Match begins as Derek Sitar is set to begin for his team, he points at Phere and demands he start as well. Despite Knite's attempts to stop him Phere enters anyway. Sitar is quick to lock up with Phere in the middle of the ring, but Sitar throws Phere's arms to the sides and then throws his knee up right into the gut of Phere, on that cracked rib. Phere slumps over in obvious pain, Sitar pulls Phere's head up by his hair and laughs in his face before taking him by the arm and Irish whipping him hard across the ring, Phere lands back first into Sitars team's corner, Phere holds his chest and is trying to breath but can't seem to get anything out, Sitar runs towards Phere and and dives with both feet out stretched and puts them right into Phere's chest with a double footed drop kick. Phere crumbles right there and lays on the ground trying desperately to catch his breath. Sitar reaches over and slaps in Lance Ryan. Lance climbs into the ring and pulls Phere to his feet, Lance takes Phere and Gorilla presses him and then drops him onto the double knees of Sitar who has jumped to the mat. Phere rolls off and is barely breathing as Sitar exits and Lance covers. Lance gets a one count before Adam Knite is in the ring kicking Lance right in the side, breaking up the pin. Adam turns his back and heads for the apron but Lance has different ideas he charges at Knite but Adam with eyes in the back of his head ducks down and Lance comes forward right into a right cross from Talon. Lance shakes off the blow and turns around right into a Perfect Dark from Knite!!!}
Eric Hardy: Adam Knite, just took Lance Ryan's head off with that kick and he isn't even the legal man!
Willy Carter: The referee needs to get him out of this ring, Kelly may have told him to protect Phere, but he still has to abide by the rules of this match!
Eric Hardy: Very true Willy. However, it does seem the referee is now ushering Knite out of the ring.
Willy Carter: That's good.
{Like Eric said the referee is pushing Knite to the apron as Knite holds up his arms innocently. Phere rolls out of the ring and rests on the apron and stumbles to one knee, barely able to stand.
Willy Carter: I don't know Eric, I don't think Phere can continue this match.
Eric Hardy: I'm with you Willy, this looks like it's too much for him to bare.
{Lance Ryan is back to his feet and tag Sitar back in after being forced away from knite's corner by the referee. Sitar stays on the apron and measures Phere he runs and leaps at Phere but Phere steps to the side at the last second and shoves Sitar from behind sending him flaying face first right into the steel ring pole! Phere climbs into the ring and slowly crawls to his corner where he slaps in Adam Knite.}
Eric Hardy: Here comes Adam Knite into the match, but at the moment he has no opponent….
Willy Carter: Yeah, Derek Sitar looks like he's out on the outside.
Eric Hardy: What is Lance doing?
{Lance jumps off the apron as the referee begins counting Sitar out. Lance comes up to him from behind and lifts him off the floor.}
Willy Carter: Looks like he's going to throw him back into the ring.
{Willy is correct as Lance Ryan shoves Sitar from behind into the ring where he immediately takes a jumping elbow drop to the back from Knite. Adam gets right back to his feet and pulls Sitar up, he scoop slams him right there, Adam takes Sitar by the arm and head and pulls him back to his feet, he wraps his under Sitar's arms and lifts him high into the air and smashes him quickly back down with a full nelson slam. Knite covers, and gets a two before Lance Ryan is there to break it up. Adam gets to his feet and stares at Lance angrly but walks to his corner and tags in Talon. Sitar rolls over and reaches out his hand, Lance grabs the hand of Falcon and forces him to slap Sitar's!}
Eric Hardy: Wow, we're going to see Talon and Falcon tag team champions going at it in the ring!
Willy Carter: This should be interesting to say the least.
{Talon and Falcon uneasily circle each other for a moment. They come to each other in the middle of the ring and lock hands, Talon takes the early advantage and spins Falcon around with a hammer lock but Falcon flips through and tries to flip Talon, but Talon lands on his feet, they both quickly get to their feet and comes right back at each other, Falcon jumps into the air and goes for a leg lariat but Talon runs under it and bounces off the ropes and comes back he lowers his head but Falcon leap frogs him, and they both hit the breaks and turn back around staring each other down.}
Eric Hardy: Look at this Willy, they know each other so well, they have the other's attacks scouted way before hand.
Willy Carter: Yeah, it's crazy how this is going.
Eric Hardy: Falcon and Talon just know each other like the back of their hands.
{Falcon and Talon suddenly turn around and face opposite corners, Talon runs over and clocks Lance right in the face, sending him falling off the apron, and Falcon clocks Knite right in the head with a stiff punch. They back up and get back to back and wait for Knite and Ryan slide back into the ring as Derek Sitar walks in as well Talon runs at him and clotheslines Sitar up and over the top rope. Chris Phere is about to enter the ring but Knite tells him to stay out as he Falcon meet. Before Talon can turn around he is hit with a back rake from Ryan, Falcon takes a punch at Knite but Adam blocks the blow and jabs his index and middle fingers into the eyes of Falcon hard! Falcon lets out a scream as he holds his face in pain. Lance comes at Knite and punching him hard driving him against the ropes, Knite takes Ryan by the head and drags him backwards and both men flip up and over the top rope to the floor where they begin exchanging blows. Falcon is holding his face with no idea what's going on and Talon holds his back, Falcon turns and catches a glimpse of Talon approaching him and kicks him in the stomach and hits an aerial spike completely out of instinct. Falcon covers 1….2… Phere tries to get into the ring but is too hurt……3! Falcon wins… pinning Talon!}
Eric Hardy: Did you see that Willy, I don't think Falcon knows what just happened! He pinned his tag team partner!
Willy Carter: Falcon is rubbing eyes and just now realizes what happened.
{Falcon jumps to his knees and tries to help Talon up but gets shoved away by Talon as on the outside Ryan takes Knite and runs him straight into the steel ring steps.
Eric Hardy: Wow… just wow…. The seeds of doubt have been put the head of Talon now I bet, especially after what Adam has been telling him.
Willy Carter: I bet Knite will be enjoying that after he shakes the cobwebs from being thrown into the steel.
{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
*Jet's "Rip it Up" starts pounding out of the PA system as Nelly Angel comes bursting out of the back. He runs out onto the entranceway. Nelly then runs down the ramp and slides into the ring, ultra pumped for his match.
Eric Hardy: the crowd seems to love Nelly.
Willy Carter: Yeah well the crowd likes losers.
The arena is still buzzing from the night's events, the hubbub of the crowd settling slightly, the audience waiting for the next event.
Then suddenly a familiar drumline rips out through the PA, the crowd cheering as white lights in the arena start flashing, the Tron showing Jack as he leans against his 911, grinning confidently, occasionally strobing with his name in bold letters and shots of him flying through the air or delivering a Charger or Mustang from his previous matches. A lairy British voice can be heard shouting out over it, the drums still crashing away.
We put this festival on you b******s, with alot of love!
We worked for one year for you pigs!
And you want to break our walls down and destroy us?!
Well you go to hell!
With that, a British Invasion fuzzed up riff breaks through, just as Jack Hammond strides through with a confident grin, the lights still flashing above him and images of his high-flying antics from previous matches play on Tron as he observes the cheering crowd, shrugging before walking down the ramp towards the ring, occasionally delivering a couple of friendly high-fives to nearby audience members who reach out towards him.
He jumps onto the ring apron before hopping over the top rope, wheeling about, yelling at the crowd, mounting the second turnbuckle to look around the arena. He pulls off his 'How Hard Can It Be?' t-shirt, tossing it into the crowd, before hopping down to the canvas and limbering up in the ring, waiting for his opponents.
Eric Hardy: Nelly and Jack are looking for a big win against the X-Division and World Heavyweight Champions.
Willy Carter: Pfft…good luck.
"So f**kin blow those words out the back of your head, I've heard it all and I'm done with that s**t, you tell me lies and you get what you get so blow those f**kin words out the back of your head"
The start of Blow by Atreyu comes over the PA, the lights dim down as strobe lights follow the first few seconds before the guitar riff explodes, then "The Black dragon" AJ Phoenix emerges in a long sleeveless coat with a hood covering his facial features, the X-Division title around his waist, he makes his way down to the ring and leaps up onto the ring apron he climbs between the ropes and flips his hood back before removing the coat, he holds up the X-Division title in one hand before handing it to the ringside official.
Eric Hardy: This Empire member certainly seems to be enjoying the life.
Willy Carter: Of course…he's rich!
"I just gotta bring it to there attention, that's all."
#1 by Nelly hit's the P.A system and Steve Awesome steps out from behind the black curtain, the nCw World Heavyweight Championship sparkling over his shoulder . He runs a palm through his hair, flashes that cocky smirk he does so well, and then points to himself. Then starts walking towards the ring as the verse plays, doing the bragging for him. Awesome climbs into the ring, steps in the middle of the ring and flexes as blue pyro rain down from the ceiling.
Eric Hardy: I hate to admit it, but there's never been a team quite as impressive as AJ and Steve teaming together.
Willy Carter: These guys are on the top of there game these days.
AJ and Jack Hammond start it off tonight. Jack instantly starts taking it to the black dragon with some martial arts kicks. He swings then viciously, landing them in the thigh and a few to the chest. Hammond follows it up with a spin kick that causes AJ to stagger backwards and fall into the ropes. Hammond takes this opportunity to whip AJ to the opposite side of the ring. AJ comes running back and gets caught in an arm drag. AJ slaps the mat in frustration and catches Hammond with a well placed elbow as he came in to inflict more damage.
Eric Hardy: Ooh, that elbow caught him right in the eye.
AJ is now in control. He slaps Jack's chest with a chop and then burries a foot into the midsection. Then AJ hoists Hammond up in the air and drops him with a suplex. Now on the ground AJ follows up with a flipping leg drop that finds it mark right in the adams apple of The Hamster.
Willy Carter: Both men delivering good blows.
There back to there feet now, and AJ tries to grab him but Hammy catches him with a European uppercut to the jaw. Hammond then twists AJ around and puts him down with a neck breaker. Hammond walks over and tags in Nelly Angel.
Eric Hardy: Hammond makes the tag.
Nelly comes sprinting over to AJ, but he gets caught with a rising lariat that takes the new guy down to the mat. AJ then walks over and makes the tag to Steve Awesome.
Willy Carter: And now Nelly gets his moment with the champ.
Nelly is too his feet now and he instantly grapples with Steve. Awesome proves that he has the power advantage between the too as he powers Nelly down into an uncomfortable looking matrix bend. But Nelly scrambles through the opening between Steve's legs causing the champ to stumble forward. Nelly runs up and plants a dropkick right on the ass of the world champion and he gets hung up on the second rope in 619 territory. Nelly takes this moment to hurdle himself over the top rope and drop a leg across the back and neck of the world champion.
Eric Hardy: Nice move from Nelly.
Willy Carter: he's only going to piss Steve off with that.
The impact bounces Steve back into the ring and Nelly quickly climbs back. Nelly walks over but gets caught in a quick double leg takedown. He lands chest first into the mat and Steve scrambles to lock in "EFSH" (rings of Saturn) but Nelly narrowly escapes the hold. He does this by rolling forward and he gets to his feet and bounces off the ropes and catches the champ with a front dropkick to his face, and then he goes over and tags in Jack Hammond.
Eric Hardy: quick tags being made by the smaller competitors tonight.
Jack is all for getting some shots in on the champ but Steve holds his hands out asking Jack to show some mercy. Hammond asks the crowd whether or not he should and of course they call for blood. Hammond goes to grab a now partially standing Steve Awesome who sneaks in a thumb to the eye without the referee noticing it. Jack winces in pain and holds his eye as the crowd boo.
Eric Hardy: That cheating bastard!
Willy carter: the ref didn't see it, it's all fair.
And on top of the thumb, Awesome plants a kick to the midsection and plants hammy with a brutal looking DDT. Steve just casually walks over and tags AJ. AJ rushes in and tries to pin Hammond.
1.….2.…
Hammond kicks out.
AJ starts dragging Hammond to his feet but Hammond drops him with a jaw breaker. AJ stumbles back Jack then leaps in the air and cracks AJ in the back of the head with the CHARGER! He covers.
1.…..
2.…………
NO. Kickout by AJ.
Eric Hardy: He kicked out! But AJ seems out of it now.
Willy Carter: Oh no. Look at Hammond. He's looking for The Mustang now.
Hammond sizes AJ up and…..
BOOM! It hits! AJ crumbles to mat and Hammond makes the cover.
1.….
Steve Awesome comes running to make the save…
2.…….
But Nelly Angel stops him with a leaping over castle.
3!!!!!!!!!!!
Eric Hardy: Oh my god! They did it! Jack and Nelly just beat the world and X-Division champion.
Willy Carter: I'm shocked!
Oasis plays as Jack and Nelly celebrate in the ring as we are taken backstage, again to the office of Spike Kane. Lance Ryan is there at Spike's desk in his face.}
Lance Ryan: Spike.. I hate you, and you hate me, that much everybody knows. You're in a position of power now, that means you have to be unbiased, and you know I deserve a shot at those titles!
Spike Kane: You've been saying that for a long time now, but you don't even have a partner.
Lance Ryan: I'll find one!
Spike Kane: no that won't be necessary. See, if you want a tag team title shot so bad, and you don't have a partner lined up, that just means I get to pick you one.
Lance Ryan: Whatever Spike, just make this match happen.
Spike Kane: Oh it will happen, but because of your runs ins, and your constant bickering, I've come up with the prefect partner. See at Road to the Gold two, it will be The Skyslayers, the tag team champions, defending their titles against the team of Lance Ryan……..
{Lance smiles confidently.}
Spike Kane: And Adam Knite.
{Suddenly the smile is gone.}
Spike Kane: Now… please leave my office.
{Lance is practically foaming at the mouth in anger as he leaps towards Spike but is grabbed by both arms by security members on each side of Spike who escort Lance out of the office, the whole time with Lance yelling at Spike.}
Spike Kane: Best of luck to you Lance **laughs**.
Eric Hardy: Can you believe that Willy!? Lance Ryan and Adam Knite are going to be forced into a partnership at the pay per view!? After what we saw between them tonight!?
Willy Carter: This is perhaps one of the oddest pairings ever….
Eric Hardy: I agree Willy, well fans we'll be right back after a word from our sponsers…. Just wow.
{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
The lights in the arena go out, and the Tron goes to static. The opening guitar riff to "Sweating Bullets" by Megadeth begins to play, and the lights turn back on. The song continues, but nobody appears at the entrance ramp.
Eric Hardy: This is the first time we've heard Fate's entrance theme in about a month. He just up and fell off the face of the Earth.
Willy Carter: Yeah, and it looks like this might be a "false alarm".
The song ends as the tron's static changes to the view of the locker room. It is dark, there's only a single dim light on. There is a man standing before us, but he's not dressed as anyone normal would dress. He's wearing a cloak, that's split in half. One side is white, the other black with red embroidered "blood slatters". The hood is up, and we cannot see who this is. But judging from the theme song played over the P.A. This is the "missing" Fate.
"Il tempo ha cad da dal calendario. Sono stato andato un certo tempo. Le cose sono accaduto mentre ero assente. E le cose accadranno di più ora che ho rinviato. NCW non è pronto per questo. NCW non è preparato per questo. E NCW non sopravvivrà a questo."
Eric Hardy: Someone get us a translator, I can't understand a thing he is saying.
Willy Carter: Times you wish you could get subtitles in real life.
"La settimana prossima, farò qualcosa che possiate rammaricarti di vedere. Il Fate ALLINEARE sarà rivelato al mondo. Il Fate che sta nascondendosi. Il Fate che sta attendendo. Vestri Fortuna Est Supervenio."
The tron goes back to static, before returning to the normal display.
Eric Hardy: What the hell was that about?
Willy Carter: And when did Fate stop speaking English?
The opening of "Move" by Thousand Foot Krutch blares over the PA system and the fans begin the cheer loudly. A spotlight shines on the stage with a glow as Philip Burns is being raised from a hidden hole in the stage; He is wearing a red jacket that hangs all the way to below his knees with his logo on the back. He is facing the ring but his gaze is fixed on the floor. Phil throws one fist in the air to pose for the audience in attendance. A camera zooms in on his face and he points to it and winks at the people at home. He walks to the ring and up the steps before getting in. He removes the jacket while pacing the ring and he walks to the center of the ring and poses in signature style with the fans on their feet. He removes and throws his t-shirt to the crowd and waits in the corner.
Eric Hardy: The Burning since coming back to nCw a few months ago, sure has been impressive…But I consider him a underdog.
Willy Carter: That just comes to show you, how much Ricky Johnson has grown into a Top Star in this promotion, one year ago, you wouldn't of gave him a chance.
"It's all over" plays over the PA system. Ricky Johnson emerges from the backstage area, with Roxi in toe, and sneer on his face. He walks casually down the aisle, making it a point not to let fans touch him. They boo him. Roxi hits the ring first and enters between the middle and bottom rope, while Ricky slides in.
The Burning goes for a lockup as the match begins, but is however met with a Forearm shot from Ricky Johnson, followed quickly by grabbing the arm of Burns and snapping him over with a Arm Drag, before quickly nailing a dropkick to the shoulder of The Burning. Ricky goes to pick up The Burning, but gets caught with a modified Snap Mare, in which Burning gets to his feet, and manages to drive down the former three time champion with a Lariat, before quickly dropping a elbow onto the chest of Ricky Johnson.

{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
( We open up with a shot of the nCw banner and Angel standing in front of it. His face is a mask for the burning hatred he feels inside. He stares at the camera for several seconds before he speaks. )
Angel: Last week something happened to me, something I expected. A Corporate Empire run in that cost me my match. I knew they would come, I thought I was prepared, I was wrong. But something happened during that run in, something we've seen before. Steve Awesome went out of his way to injure me, to make sure that there would be no chance in hell of me being able to wrestle him.
( The fans in the arena boo at that statement. )
Angel: Three weeks, my doctor told me it would be at least three weeks before I should even think about wrestling again. He said that if I wanted to wait until I was 100% it would be more like two months. My right knee cap was fractured and dislocated. Their afraid that the fracture could become a break. On top of that Steve Awesome gave me a chair shot that I won't soon forget. He caused a mild concussion. You'll be happy to know Steve that I've been unable to sleep for more than two hours at a time because of that. But three weeks is the earliest I can come back because of what happened last week.
( Again the fans just boo. )
Angel: I told the doctors fine, I'll take three weeks off... After Road to the Gold.
( Suddenly thousands of people begin to cheer. )
Angel: You see Steve, you can put me down, you can injure me, but I'll always come back. I'm going to be at Road to the Gold, cleared or not, I'm going to be in that ring, healed or not, and I'm going to wrestle, sanctioned or not. I don't care who, all I ask is he be someone from the Corporate Empire. You see Steve, I know what your doing. Your effectively trying to remove any and all threats. You took out Trent, now your targeting me. You didn't finish the job Steve, your going to have to kill me to get rid of me.
( An "ANGEL!" chant starts up. )
Angel: You've made this personal for me Steve so I'm going to make it personal for you. I'm going to destroy every single member of the Corporate Empire until I get you in the ring Steve, until I get the title shot I deserve. Until then, watch your damn back![color=red]
( Angel just walks off camera as the fans continue chanting "ANGEL! ANGEL!" )
Eric Hardy: The Road to the Gold is winding down, we already know one finalist, it's time for the second one. Both of these men have been here in nCw for almost a year now and both of them are ready to take the next step towards the World Title.
Willy Carter: Xavier Williams is the man I'm pulling for because I'm tired of the black man getting held down in this damn company.
Eric Hardy: Willy, Xavier has been given nearly every opportunity one can be given in wrestling.
Willy Carter: Nearly is right where as some white dick head like Ace gets everything handed to him while my boy Xavier has gotta fight for it like a dog. That dog is about to take whats his.
Eric Hardy: Since you feel so strongly about Xavier, what can you tell us about this seeming alliance he has with Angel?
Willy Carter: The boy knows he needs some back up, don't be looking into this too much Hardly.
Eric Hardy: Any feelings on the Ace. I'm thinking a Smokin' Aces main event at Road to the Gold would be an out standing main event.
Willy Carter: I think their all racist.
Eric Hardy: Who?
Willy Carter: Everyone.
( With that said…
"You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your f**kin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say good night to the bad guy! Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you. Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way! "
And with that "A Bid Farewell" by Killswitch Engage hits, and the arena lights go off, matching the beat to the song. Xavier steps out on the stage, his hoodie over his head, and his skull-mouthed bandana over his mouth. He walks down the ramp, he gaze focused on the ring. He slides underneath the bottom rope and rolls to the middle of the ring, where is on one knee, his head bowed. "I Will Bid... Farewell" hits and he pounds his fists into the mat and stands up and holds his arms in an 'X' formation. The crowd giving him heat, he takes off his hoodie and takes off his bandana. His smirk on his face, as the lights return to normal. )
Willy Carter: Come on my brother, mess this white boy up!
(As the opening guitar plays, the titantron shows a small white circle with the 'Spade' symbol within it move across the screen, then as it disappears a larger gun barrel appears from the right and moves with a silhouette of The Ace in it into the centre, the silhouette faces the camera draws a gun and fires. The bullet heads towards the screen before shattering a Jack of Hearts. Huge pyro explodes either side of the ramp as cards begin to fall from the rafters. The lyrics to 'You Know My Name' by Chris Cornell begin as The Ace appears on stage. The titantron shows The Ace delivering Ace-Plants to Phillip Burns and Showtyme. The Ace walks down the ramp through the shower of falling cards and at the bottom of the ramp the cards stop falling as The Ace confidently struts over to the steel steps, he climbs them and then asks the referee to part the ring ropes for him as The Ace steps through them. He walks over to the adjacent turnbuckle, climbing the second rope. He raises both arms in the air. The Ace then climbs down an he walks to the middle of the ring as the song fades... )
Willy Carter: The racist looks ready for his just deserts.
Eric Hardy: I really don't think he's racist.
Willy Carter: I'm sorry, are you black?
Eric Hardy: No.
Willy Carter: Then ease up on off black affairs.
Eric Hardy: I'm a play by play commentator Willy.
Willy Carter: YOU'RE A RACIST!
( With both Xavier Williams and the Ace in their corners the Cell begins to lower from the ceiling. The fans in attendance go silent as the lights go out and an ominous drum beat begins to play. The Cell has dropped, the entire ring and ring side area is now encased inside the Cell. Ace and Xavier have one final moment to mentally prepare for the war they are about to put themselves through for a shot at the World Title. )
"DING DING"
( Xavier sprints right out of his corner as does the Ace, the two meet up in the middle and lock up in a test of strength, Ace goes right for a kick to Xavier's stomach, grabs Xavier in a side head lock then goes for a bull dog. Xavier pushes Ace off, who hits the ropes and comes back looking for a clothesline, Xavier ducks and goes for a spinning heel kick, catching Ace in the back of the head. Xavier is quick to his feet, goes off the ropes and Ace whips around with a hard clothes line. )
Eric Hardy: A stiff clothes line. This match is really starting off with a bang tonight.
Willy Carter: It's gonna end with a lynching if the Racist wins.
Eric Hardy: His names the Ace, and for the last time…
Willy Carter: ZIP IT!
(Ace shakes the cob webs out as he gets back to his feet. Xavier had the wind knocked out of him but he pushes through it and stands up. Ace turns around and takes hard knife edge chop to the chest, then another, and another and another. Xavier knife edge chops him one more time and backs Ace into the corner. Xavier throws a hard elbow strike to Ace's face, then runs across the ring, turns and runs back at Ace. Xavier jumps into the air, tucking his legs, looking for a double knee strike to the face. Ace drops down at the last second as Xavier skids across the top rope and tumbles to the outside of the ring. )
Eric Hardy: That could not of felt very good for Xavier. He had a role going until Ace managed to just move out of the way.
Willy Carter: I'm not worried about it, Xavier is a tough guy.
Eric Hardy: I wasn't doubting him. I'm just saying, that was a pretty smart move by…
Willy Carter: The racist.
Eric Hardy: *Sighs*
( Ace taps the side of his head claiming intelligence as he climbs throw the second rope and goes out onto the apron. Xavier is on his hands and knees as he starts to get up, Ace jumps off the ring apron with a double axe handle which puts Xavier right back down. The fans begin to boo quite loudly and even start a "YOU SUCK!" chant. Ace just smiles and waves as he bends over to pull Xavier up. Ace takes Xavier's head and slams it hard into the chain link that makes up the Cell, then begins to drag his face back and forth across the chain link. Ace pulls him back then slams his head against it hard, then takes his arm, whips Xavier backwards into the ring apron, spine first, then whips him forward into the Cell again. )
Wily Carter: Disgusting that after two hundred years my people still have to deal with this kind of nonsense.
Eric Hardy: It's a wrestling match.
Willy Carter: Looks like lynching to me.
Eric Hardy: Have you ever been lynched?
Willy Carter: What did I say about black affairs?
Eric Hardy: Ease up?
Willy Carter: EASE UP!
( Ace takes Xavier and decides to continue adding insult to injury as he goes to slam Xavier's face into the ring post, Xavier blocks it with his right arm then drop toe holds Ace right into the ring post. The fans begin cheering and applauding. Ace holds his face as he reels on the ground. Xavier pulls himself up via the Cell. Ace pushes himself up, Xavier drop kicks the Ace right in the face. Xavier pulls Ace up to his feet and sends a kick to his gut, a side kick to his face, then a spinning back fist followed by several more hand strikes to Ace's chest and head, Ace stumbles back wards as Xavier super kicks Ace right on the chin, Ace stumbles into the ring steps behind him. Ace stands up, Xavier runs at him at full speed and plows into Ace sending him crashing against the ring steps. Ace holds his back as he falls onto his side. )
Eric Hardy: A devastating blow by Xavier to the Ace. Ace will be feeling that for a long time.
Willy Carter: BOO YA!
( Xavier roles into the ring. Ace starts to get up slowly. Xavier goes across the ring, he comes off the ropes, Ace is just about to his feet, Xavier leaps over the ropes with a Fosbury Flop over the top rope to the outside crashing right into the Ace, the both of them crashing against the Cell wall. )
Willy Carter: HELLS YEAH!
Eric Hardy: Another nasty move by Xavier Williams that ends with Ace in allot of pain.
( Both are pretty slow to their feet as the fans in attendance begin a "KILL HIM X!" chant. Xavier is first to his feet and sends a knife edge chop to Ace's chest which Ace counters with a stiff right hand to Xavier cheek. Xavier staggers for a second which is enough time for Ace to get to his feet and REVERSAL OF FORTUNE! )
Eric Hardy: OUT OF NO WHERE HE LANDS THE REVERSAL OF FORTUNE! If they were in the ring I'd say go for the pin right there, but unfortunately their not.
Willy Carter: Ace is just afraid of my home boy. YOU GOT THIS LOCKED DOWN X!
( Ace gets to his feet and for the first time this match he goes to reach under the ring for a weapon when he looks over and realizes his rake is in the Cell. Ace makes his way to his corner on the other side of the ring. Xavier slowly starts to get up while Ace is gone. Xavier gets back in the ring. Ace has his rake and holds it up to a chorus of boos. Xavier holds his neck and head as he see's Ace on the outside. Xavier runs at the ropes and flies through the second rope looking for a flying spear, but Ace just gets out of the way and Xavier gets a face full of Cell wall. )
Eric Hardy: For the second time this match Xavier crashes and burns.
Willy Carter: Bozack…
( Ace grabs Xavier with his left hand and brings him to his feet, he holds the rake up in his right before bringing it down across Xavier William's face. Xavier screams as Ace slowly drags the rake across his flesh, ripping it open for the whole world to see. Xavier starts pouring blood from the wound. Ace looks at the rake as he lets Xavier drop to the arena floor. Ace almost contemplates licking the rake before he looks down. He now uses the rake to rip open Xavier's shirt, he then again drags the rake down Xavier's back, ripping at the flesh there too. The ref pleads for Ace to stop. Ace threatens the ref with the rake. )
Willy Carter: THAT IS IT! I'm sick of this disgusting display of racism by the Ace.
Eric Hardy: Willy, there are no rules in this match, the rake is perfectly legal.
Willy Carter: BOZACK!
( Ace grabs Xavier by the head as he pulls him up looking to rake his face again. In complete desperation Xavier Williams lands a stiff low blow right between Ace's legs. Ace drops the rake as he falls backwards holding his man hood. Xavier picks up the rake and the fans for crazy. Xavier grips the rake between his fingers and mounts Ace before punching him repeatedly in the face with the rake. The fans count as he does this. )
Willy Carter: YEAH! WHAT! What no playa, you ain't got noff'in! NOFF'IN! MESS HIM UP!
Eric Hardy: Right, so now it's okay because Xavier is using the rake.
Willy Carter: Can't be holding the brother man down baby.

Willy Carter: It's all over.
1..2..KICK OUT!
Willy Carter: DAMMIT! STAY DOWN YOU WHITE DEVIL!

1..2..3 NO ACE KICKED OUT!
Eric Hardy: Barely a kick out right there by the Ace as Xavier keeps looking for a way to put Ace down for good.
Willy Carter: That white boy is going down.
( Xavier is just fed up and begins to throw a several stiff jabs to the face of the Ace. Xavier stands up he walks around in a circle for a second before he goes to the corner. He starts to climb the ropes. Ace begins to get up. Xavier is on the top rope, he looks to be setting up for a shooting start press, but Ace finds the strength to jump at the ropes pushing both of Xavier's legs sending Xavier flying face first into the Cell wall before tumbling onto the floor. )
Eric Hardy: I bet that doesn't taste like Lemon miring pie.
Willy Carter: What?
Eric Hardy: The cage, I bet it doesn't…
Willy Carter: No, I heard you, but what?
Eric Hardy: Nevermind.
( Ace gets up then falls against the top rope. Xavier uses the apron to get up as Ace reaches down and grabs him by the head and lifts him up onto the apron.

Willy Carter: Ain't putting the brother man down.
( Ace refuses to believe that Xavier kicked out and pins him again. )
1..2..3 NO XAVIER KICKS OUT!
Eric Hardy: OH MY GOD! He almost had him on that second pin attempt.
Willy Carter: Almost nothing. Xavier kicked out a mile before the three.
( Ace just socks Xavier in the face as hard as he can and pins him one more time. )
1..2.. KICK OUT!
Willy Carter: Another blatantly illegal move by the Ace that WHITE referee is just going to ignore.
Eric Hardy: No Holds Barred, Willy.
Willy Carter: Look man, we've been over this, I don't swing that way so I ain't going to the bar with you.
( Ace's frustration is mounting as he stands up. He rips Xavier to his feet then plants him with the Russian Roulette. Ace pins again. )
1..2.. KICK OUT!
Eric Hardy: Where does Xavier get the strength from?
Willy Carter: Two hundred years of being held down, that's where.
Eric Hardy: Oh…
( Ace stands up with his hands at his sides. He doesn't know what else to do. Xavier starts to get up slowly. Ace grabs him in a head lock but Xavier slides out of it and lands a stiff kick right to Ace's back before grabbing him in a swinging reverse neck breaker. Xavier goes to the nearest ring corner and waits for Ace to start to get up.

Eric Hardy: This is it!
1..2..3!!!
Amber Ashe: Your winner by pinfall… THE ACE!!!!
Eric Hardy: Oh my god, I knew this match was going to be over the top but these two men took each other to all new limits and in the end Ace is the one who advances to the final round of the Road to the Gold tournament.
Willy Carter: We're just that much closer to a Smokin' Aces main event at Road to the Gold. Should be pretty interesting. Where it will of course be two white guys main eventing… again… like always…
Eric Hardy: That's all we got folks, see you next week!
( We fade out on Ace celebrating his huge win in the ring. )
