The scene opens up as the fireworks begin to go off in the arena and the official opening theme song of EHWF Friday Night Mayhem, "Hurt Somebody" by Akon, is playing over the PA system.
The camera pans around the whole arena, showing all the screaming fans on their feet ready for another night full of action. After a few moments of the fans going crazy, the camera pans down to ringside, where the best announcers to have ever lived, Steve White and Chuck Thompson sit.
Steve White: Bah Gawd! Bah Gawd! Bah Gawd! Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to Friday Night Mayhem! We’re only 1 week away from Aftermath and tonight is the night where all the anger and tension reaches its peak before the backlash of Scars and Stripes comes to ahead at Aftermath!
Chuck Thompson: That’s right Steve! All these fans can bet their welfare checks that there will be some amazing scenes to witness here on Mayhem before Aftermath! Tonight we have Silver Kazama taking on Conner Creed in a steel cage match and many are questioning if Silver Kazama was placed in a steel cage match one week out from fighting DGS because of what happened last week with Michael Rissi’s wife and our GM, Joanna Rissi.
Steve White: Well Silver Kazama was Rissi’s new boy until he kicked his wife in the head at the end of Mayhem last week. Ever since then it’s been reported that Rissi has been quite negative and pissed off at Kazama and it’s even caused people to speculate that Rissi has cut ties with Silver Kazama and is now on #teamDGS.
Chuck Thompson: Well I’m sure with the announcement later tonight we’ll find out just who has the support of Rissi; Silver or DGS? Speaking of DGS tonight he faces David Arnold and Eli Sykes in a triple threat and we see the triumphant return of Ryan Mercury to face Mazzio in a rematch!
Steve White: It’ll be a great night like always but I really can’t wait for Aftermath and King of Bereavement where we will see new Tag Team Champions crowned. Will it be the new and exiting Masturbation or the ruthless Insidious? Either way I’m pumped up so lets start the night!
We pan to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the first match of the night.
Patricia Downs: This opening contest is a 6 man tag team contest and it’s set for one fall!
”No New Friends, No New Friends, No New Friends – No No New.”
The PA System sparks up and the fans all give a mixed reaction as the team of Chicken Shit, Steve Jessup and Van Jameson come out onto the stage. They look around at the fans then make their way down the ramp to some boos. They get to the ring and all get in, waiting for their opponents as the PA dies down and the lights go back to normal.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… The team of Chicken Shit, Steve Jessop & Van Jameson!
Rose, Maddie Murdock and Savannah come out onto the stage to somewhat more positive reactions. Rose holds up her EHWF Hardcore Championship and bolts down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans as she gets to the ring and slides in! Maddie and Savannah follow, taking their time down the ramp. They get in the ring and come face to face with their opponents, waiting for the bell to ring.
Patricia Downs: And their opponents… Maddie Murdock, Rose & Savannah!
DING DING DING!
The match begins as Rose and Chicken Shit lock up. Rose starts beating down Chicken Shit in the center of the ring with big rights and lefts! She bounces Chicken Shit off of the ropes then nails him with a big dropkick when he comes back, sending him flipping in the air down to the mat! Rose picks him up and walks him over to the corner then bounces his head off of the turnbuckle! Rose knees Chicken Shit in the midsection and looks to go for an armbar but he pushes Rose down to the mat and dives, making a tag to Van Jam!
Steve White: Rose was kicking Chicken Shit’s ass right there and she almost had him in the armbar but for some reason he chickened out and tagged in Van Jam!
Chuck Thompson: His name is Chicken Shit… I refuse to comment on him at all tonight. As for Van Jam! Well he’s looking ready tonight and here he comes!
Rose nails Van Jam with a high knee! Rose runs up and swings at Van but he ducks her and nails her with the Van Jaminator! The fans go wild as Rose goes sprawling across the ring! Van Jam runs up and hits Maddie Murdock with a Van Jaminator off of the apron sending her to the outside! Savannah goes to come in but she is hit with a Van Jaminator as well, sending her to the outside! Rose gets up and grabs Van Jam’s arm for the armbar but she can’t get it! Rose goes for Tansy but Van Jam pushes the Hardcore Champ off of him and sends her into the corner! Savannah hops back up on the apron and Rose tags her in! Savannah springs over the top rope and nails Van Jam with a dropkick to the chest!
Steve White: And here comes Savannah who has been on fire recently! Can she take down Van Jameson here tonight or is he going to overcome her with another Van Jaminator and finish her off!
Chuck Thompson: Van Jameson hitting everyone with Van Jaminators tonight! This guy is going to go far! I won’t be surprised is Rissi or Bash inserts him in the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath after his effort tonight! He’s that damn good!
Savannah drops Van Jam with a dropkick to the thigh! He goes to get up but instead, Savannah gets on top of him and starts hitting him in the head with wild strikes! Van Jam forces his way up and goes for a clothesline but she ducks him and nails him with a side kick to the head! Van Jam falls into his corner, dazed and hurt so Steve Jessop tags himself into the match! Jessop runs in hits Savannah with a shoulder block! He bounces off of the ropes to go for another but Savannah nails him with another dropkick to the thigh! He gets up only to get hit with a hurricanrana! Savannah leaps up and tags in Maddie Murdock!
Steve White: Steve Jessop is a man who knows he’s rights but he doesn’t really know how to fight and he’s proving that tonight with a piss poor effort right now!
Chuck Thompson: Now Maddie Murdock is coming into this match. Steve Jessop better be on his toes but that’s going to be hard because I’m 99% sure he is heavily intoxicated right now…
Maddie runs in and knocks Jessop down with a lariat! He gets up but she takes him down with a dropkick to the chest! Maddie picks Jessop up and whips him into the corner then follows up with a corner splash! Jessop stumbles around but Maddie boots him in the gut then tosses him into the corner once again. Maddie hits Jessop with a big running corner knee right to the face then pushes him off out of the corner! Jessop stumbles around, groggy and hurt as Maddie runs up and hits Jessop with the Beautiful Bulldog! Maddie covers him!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here are your winners… The team of Savannah… Maddie Murdock and The EHWF Hardcore Champion… Rose!
The winning team gets their arms raised while the PA system goes off. We fade out to the backstage area.
We open to an almost pitch black office, the only light we get in the setting is the illumination of the nights sky and outside lights through the blinds and the light peering into the office through the open door. As we pan through the dark room we see a figure sitting on a desk with his back to us facing the window. A shadow casts over him from the door as an EHWF Executive knocks from outside.
Mark Andrews: Mr. Bash. The others are requesting your presence in the joint office to decide what should be done regarding the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath.
Now revealed as Brandon Bash, He raises himself up from the desk and looks up, continuing to stare out the window as Andrews awaits a response.
Brandon Bash: And why do they need me?
Mark Andrews: To decide -- what should be done regarding the EHWF Championship at Af...
Brandon Bash: Well I assume the rematch between Kazama and Smith will go ahead as planned. There is no need to decide anything else.
Mark Andrews: Mr. and Mrs. Rissi along with Mr. Wilson have came up with a stipulation to attach to the match. As emissary to the Board of Directors you should hear it first...
Bash is silent for a moment.
Brandon Bash: …How’s her face?
Mark Andrews: Still a little bruised.
Bash looks down.
Brandon Bash: Tell me… Is Rissi still being negative about Silver? Has he signed his demise as champion with this new stipulation?
Mark Andrews: I’m – I’m not too sure sir. Rissi himself doesn’t regard Silver too highly right now. Joanna keeps trying to tell him it was just an accident but David Smith and Matthew Kazama aren’t Rissi’s most favourite employees at the moment.
We see from the side, small smirk grow on Bash’s face.
Brandon Bash: Silver… Truly a complete idiot, isn’t he? Almost as stupid as David Smith himself.
Mark Andrews: Sir?
Brandon Bash: You can’t be this dim can you? Silver messed up a good thing he had going on. If he was still buds with Rissi chances are Rissi would have had no effect on the outcome of his match but now it might go the other way. Silver might be up the creek without a paddle… As for David Smith – his brain simply can’t put two and two together.
Mark Andrews: What do you mean?
Brandon Bash: It’s not secret I have my own interests here in EHWF. I’ve admitted it, you know it, Rissi knows it and the competitors and fans know it. The EHWF Championship is one of those interests. Davey has had too much of a hard on for Rissi to see that it was I who booked a 6 man main event match at Scars and Stripes Rissi just made it more violent. It’s true, I don’t want David to have the EHWF Championship and I don’t want Silver to have it. either…
Mark Andrews: But…
Brandon Bash: But why does Silver have it now if I didn’t want either of them to hold it? Well some things you can’t help. Some things you can’t anticipate… But I’d rather the title be on Silver then DGS – because I think I can take it easier… Although, after seeing Silver’s performance at Scars and Stripes, I’m not so sure now.
Mark Andrews: Regrets?
Brandon Bash: No… but Legion was supposed to walk away with the gold that night. Now with no more Legion I’m not quite sure who I’ll find to accomplish my interests. The bottom line is Silver is too caught up with David Smith and David Smith is too caught up with Rissi and Management to even see what’s coming for them. It’s not like they don’t know I’m around the corner, it’s not like they don’t know what I think and it’s not like they don’t know what I’m planning but like I said, they’re too busy. Their brains aren’t big enough to realize what’s what let alone focus on more than one thing at a time. They know all of this, they know what I want and still they refuse to focus on what’s important.
Mark Andrews: Either way Mr. Bash, you have to come and hear this stipulation so you can tell the Board tonight. I’m sure this won’t mess up your plans.
Brandon Bash: …I’ll be down in a second.
Andrews nods and walks off back down the hall as we fade back into the arena.
We pan to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match of the night.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
The opening dialogue of "Bad Religion" by Godsmack starts and out comes Aaron with a local woman on each of his arms and a beer in his hand. He makes his way down the ramp to the ring. As he gets there he kisses each of the woman and leads them to a seats next to the commentators. Once the ladies were seated Arron slips into the ring in a Shawn Michealesque knee slide. He stays still as his music comes to an end his eyes on the ramp as he watches he opponent.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Being accompanied by Nathaniel Grant… Aaron Fredrick Hudson!
"WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY!!!"
The song begins on the chorus as Jerry Mazy leaps out from behind the curtain and begins dancing on the stage to his entrance music. This continues for several seconds before Jerry runs down the ramp and slides in to the ring to a large pop from the crowd. He continues to dance in the ring to an even louder pop from the crowd. He flourishes against the rope before awaiting his opponent.

The bell sounds and Hudson and Mazy lock up! Mazy takes out one of Hudson’s legs and gets on top of him trying for a submission but Hudson gets out of his grasp and gets back to his feet! They lock up again and this time Mazy hits Hudson with hard shots to the back! Hudson pushes him off and the two trade left and right blows! Hudson knees Mazy in the gut then tosses him into the corner!
Steve White: This match is really kind of just a lead up to next weeks death match where Insidious and Masturbation Nation will go one on one for the tag team championships!
Chuck Thompson: The H Man and Granty are looking good here tonight! Grant is barking orders at Hudson and he looks to be following them perfectly!
Hudson follows up with a big corner splash! Mazy stumbles around and gets a kick to the gut from Hudson! Hudson goes to follow up with a DDT but Mazy twists out of it and nails Hudson with a clothesline! Hudson gets up but gets hit with a dropkick back down to the mat! Finally Mazy grabs Hudson up from the mat and hits him with a jawbreaker that sends Hudson crashing into the corner!
Steve White: Mazy is coming back and Grant is hitting the apron, trying to wake Hudson up! This isn’t looking good for Insidious right now!
Chuck Thompson: Masturbation Nation have impressed so far and I’m expecting them to impress tonight with a win right here!
Mazy runs up and nails Hudson with a big running dropkick to the head in the corner! Hudson falls on the mat and Grant jumps up on the apron! The ref comes over and argues with Grant and Grant argues back trying to get into the ring. Wilmer tells Mazy to forget about it and finish Hudson! Mazy gets up to the top rope and lines Hudson up as he stumbles to his feet! Mazy jumps off of the top rope but Hudson turns around and Mazy lands right into a kick to the groin from Hudson! Mazy grabs his balls and falls to the mat off of the low blow! The ref didn’t see as he was arguing with Grant!
Steve White: Low blow! Low blow to a flying Mazy by Hudson! Bah Gawd! The ref was distracted by Grant right there!
Chuck Thompson: Mazy took a big blow right there! We might have to stop this one!
Mazy stumbles up to his feet from Wilmer’s encouragement but Hudson runs up and hits him with a sunset flip! As Hudson covers him on the edge, Grant runs over on the outside behind the ref and holds Mazy’s arms down on the apron! The ref doesn’t notice and counts!

Patricia Downs: Here is your winner… Aaron Fredrick Hudson!
Steve White: Bah Gawd they stole one right there!
Chuck Thompson: I don’t think their intention was to steal one Steve I think Insidious was trying to send a message like that and I think they just did! They’re in Masturbation Nation’s heads now!
Wilmer rushes into the ring and goes to help out Mazy! Hudson rushes back in the ring with Grant, both wielding steel chairs! They advance on Masturbation Nation, wildly swinging with the intent to destroy their KoB opponents! Mazy and Patacky roll out of the ring just in time and start to back up the ramp while Insidious taunts out at them.
Steve White: Well Patacky and Mazy have to face Grant and Hudson in a tag team death match at Aftermath in the King of Bereavement Finals.
Chuck Thompson: And it’s for the Tag Team Championships! That’s going to be one amazing match Steve!
We fade out to a commercial as Mazy and Patacky get to the top of the stage.
We come back to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
A hush goes over the crowd as the lights lower to a level that is just above off. The sound of a woman's voice can be heard over the loud speakers. "Help me Handsome Devil! You're my only hope!" With that, "Invincible" by OK GO hits the loud speaker and the once quite crowed bursts into a earth shaking roar as Handsome Devil bursts from out behind the curtain. A huge smile spreads across his face, as he looks around at all the screaming fans. He then runs down the ramp, high fiving some of the fans along the way. Not showing any sign of slowing down as he approaches the ring, Devil slides under the bottom rope and continues his way to the opposite ropes where he jumps on to the middle rope and raises his fist with a battle cry. The masked man then jumps off and heads to the middle of the ring and strikes a heroic pose. With a wink to the ladies and a thumbs up to the kids, he turns to and walks over to his corner where he takes a seat on the top rope.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Handsome Devil!
T.Q's music blasts throughout the arena as fireworks begin to explode from the stage. T.Q comes out and walks down the ramp way with a cocky smirk on his face. Dressed in his typical black Timberland boots, and black Polo jeans, he enters into the ring and goes over to the corner and climbs onto the middle rope, just to look out into the crowd for a brief second. T.Q then jumps off the middle rope and walks over to the referee and starts to bad mouth him before his music is cut and his opponents music starts to play.

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here is your winner… TQ Smooth!
TQ Smooth rolls Handsome Devil out of the ring. TQ quickly gets up onto the turnbuckle and starts to celebrate while he demands a mic from the outside!
TQ Smooth: Last week Handsome Devil fucked with me and look what happened tonight! I fucked him up. Last week Bill Ryder also decided to fuck with me and just like Handsome, he’s not going to get away with it. That disgruntled little boy Bill Ryder is on notice from here on out. Watch your back pussy!
TQ’s music hits and he drops the mic on the outside. TQ gets off of the turnbuckle and taunts the fans as we fade out to the interview area.
We come in as Alexander Corvis is standing by with Michael Rissi and Scott Wilson in the interview area backstage.
Alexander Corvis: Ladies and Gentlemen joining me right now is EHWF Owner Michael Rissi. Mr. Rissi, thank you for your time tonight, now you’ve promised us an announcement regarding the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath against Silver Kazama and David Smith. Before we get that groundbreaking announcement, can we get your feelings on both competitors following what happened to your wife at the hands of Silver Kazama at the end of Mayhem last week?
Michael Rissi: My personal feelings about Kazama and Smith? I don’t need to elaborate on either of them in detail. All I’ll say is that they’re both fucked… Both of these guys are completely fucked in the head. They’ve taken their obsessive compulsive rivalry too far now and they showed that with their reckless behavior last week when Silver hit Joanna with the Devil Trigger. I expected better out of Silver because David GS has always been a complete fuckwit but Silver, I thought had more sense then to get carried away and reckless like he did… Which leads me to MY announcement.
Alexander Corvis: Please. Please elaborate on that.
Michael Rissi: I’ve talked to Brandon Bash and he’s confirmed with the Board of Directors that we’re going to add a stipulation to the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath. That stipulation is that the loser at Aftermath cannot challenge for the EHWF Championship again while the winner remains champion...
Alexander Corvis: Wow! Really? So if Silver retains DGS cannot challenge for the World title again as long as Silver’s champion and if DGS wins, Silver won’t be able to have a shot at the title again while DGS is champion? That’s quite a bold stipulation to put into this match. Does it have anything to do with what occurred with your wife last week and your relationship with these two men?
Michael Rissi: Yeah… Probably. It’s no secret that I’m not fond of either guy but I won’t personally influence the outcome of their match – personally I hope they beat the shit out of each other all night until we have to cart them off to the ER but as for who wins and who becomes Champion at the end of the night… I couldn’t give one fuck. Both of these guys will learn that their disregard for other people isn’t acceptable and at Aftermath, when both of them are bloody and bruised and their careers are shortened as a result – they will understand this lesson, even if they don’t atone for their actions.
Wilson stands behind Rissi and nods in agreement but Corvis looks a little confused.
Alexander Corvis: Do you really expect that much bloodshed to take place in a straight up singles contest between the two? For all we know the match might only last 5 or 10 minutes…
Michael Rissi: Right, which is why Wilson here put out some feelers to both Silver’s and David GS’s camps and all three parties were able to agree on a special match type at Aftermath.
Rissi takes the mic and gives it to Wilson.
Scott Wilson: That’s right. See neither Silver Kazama nor DGS will be with the rest of us at Aftermath… Sure they’ll be nearby in Dallas but they won’t be in the same venue. Silver Kazama will defend the EHWF Championship against DGS in another arena in Dallas in an… Empty Arena Match!
The fans watching back on the tron go wild as Wilson nods along.
Alexander Corvis: An Empty Arena Match? That’s a really big development regarding this match? How will that work on the card?
Michael Rissi: Well Corvis, I suggest you watch and watch carefully. Watch two grown men with pure hatred for each other beat the living shit out of one another in an anything goes contest for the biggest prize in our industry. Don’t miss it…
Rissi and Wilson walk off leaving Corvis a little shocked. We fade out back to the arena.
We come back to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
The crowd erupts in boos as the opening riff of "Someone To Hate" by Demon Hunter begins to blare throughout the arena. As soon as the drums pick up, "Homicidal" Lucas Mercer steps out from behind the curtain with his hair hanging down over his face. When the chorus kicks in, he whips his hair back, revealing his face to the crowd. He holds his arms out and drops to one knee, crushing one fist in to the stage. He stands and runs down to the ring, sliding in under the bottom rope. He leaps to his feet with agility and holds his arms out again, yelling to the crowd. He stops and begins pacing back and forth in the ring, awaiting the start of the match.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Lucas Mercer!
A song begins to blare throughout the arena and the fans look on in confusion. Nothing in playing on the tron and then suddenly Blaise's name appears on the screen and the fans begin to cheer. Every now and then the fans would cheer for Blaise because they truly appreciated her talent despite the sour attitude she had. She appears from the back and the arena is swallowed in darkness with one small spotlight that follows the diva's every move. She has a dark black hoodie on and is wearing a pair of black gloves, a different attire than usual the fans take notice as she stands on top of the ramp for a moment. She begins to decide down the ramp, paying no attention to the fans. Her eyes solely focused on the ring in front of her.
Blaise walks around to the side of the ring and jumps up. She swings her leg as she gets on the apron, before going into the ring. She walks to the other side of the ring and makes her way to the turnbuckle where she takes off her hood. Blaise appears to be slightly different looking. She's sporting darker make up and her hair seems to be a couple of shades darker. It appears a lot of has changed in the last few months, and not just in EHWF in Blaise's time apart from the company. She takes her jacket off that has the letters "QB" sowed into the back and tosses it at the ring announcer. And then a vintage moment of Blaise happens in which she demands the referee to help her down from the turnbuckle, displaying that she still is in fact the same handful she was not too long ago. She looks on with her arms crossed on her chest, unimpressed.
Patricia Downs: And his opponent… Blaise!
DING DING DING!
The bell rings and Lucas Mercer and Blaise come to the center. They go to lock up but Blaise avoids him and ducks around him. Blaise grabs Lucas around the waist but she gets an elbow to the face in return! Lucas turns around and drives Blaise into the corner! He quickly gets an advantage, hitting her with big corner thrusts! Lucas then grabs Blaise and whips her hard into the opposing corner! Blaise yells out in pain but Mercer runs up for a massive corner clothesline! Blaise is able to roll out of the way at the final second and Mercer eats the turnbuckle head on! Mercer stumbles around but Blaise jumps up and nails him in the back with a dropkick back into the corner to buy herself more time.
Steve White: And this contest is already getting heated! We're seeing Lucas Mercer forcefully come into this match and control Blaise. We all know he wants to redeem himself after his loss last week but a victory over Blaise would be huge bah Gawd!
Chuck Thompson: Last week we saw Blaise's triumphant return to EHWF where she defeated Eli Sykes! Sykes put up one amazing fight but Blaise was able to get the job done. I guess all I can say now is... Blaise you lookin' damn fine tonight mami!

KICK OUT!
Steve White: Mercer was controlling Blaise and this match with his size advantage but it seems like Blaise has been able to find an opening and wrestle control back to her!
Chuck Thompson: She's doing a great job but Mercer was able to kick out! Blaise needs to hit this guy with something big! Perhaps even two something bigs because he's going to get up and Mercer is a big mean son of a gun looking for redemption from last week and looking to make a name for himself with a win over Blaise tonight!
Mercer gets to his feet as does Blaise! Blaise dashes at him but Mercer rams into her with a shoulder and takes her down! Mercer picks Blaise up and grabs her by the hair then tosses her into the corner! Mercer lines Blaise up then bolts at her but she jumps up in the corner and Mercer runs right into her boot!

Steve White: Blaise found the ropes! Blaise found the ropes! Mercer looks heart broken right now!
Chuck Thompson: I thought Mercer had it right there! I really thought he was going to walk away with the win right then and there but as we all know it's not an easy task defeating Blaise!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here is your winner... Blaise!
Blaise gets up and starts to celebrate but everything is interrupted as War by Sick Puppies hits the PA System. Dawson Hayes makes his way out onto the stage with a mic as Blaise looks on confused.
Steve White: Dawson Hayes? What’s he doing out here?
Dawson Hayes: Aww… Look who’s back! Look who it is… Blaise!
Blaise looks on, still confused as she holds her arms out to Hayes.
Dawson Hayes: You know my mate Ryan and you had a thing once upon a time. Maybe it was serious and maybe it wasn’t but you just left him high and dry with you little injury or time off or whatever… Ryan’s just now getting back to himself but he hears your name and I think he changes a bit y’know.
Blaise flashes half a smirk as she leans on the top rope and watches Hayes talk.
Dawson Hayes: The lads just getting back to his old ways and he doesn’t need you distracting him and complicating his life anymore. I’m not going to let you cupcake.
Blaise looks on bored as she fakes a yawn. Dawson Hayes’ music hits once again as he turns away and leaves, leaving Blaise unimpressed in the ring as we fade out to a commercial.
We come back to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is a triple threat match set for one fall!
"The stars at night are big and bright deep in the heart of Texas!"
"Texas Blood Money" by Upon a Burning Body brings people to their feet as they await the appearance of Eli Sykes. As he makes his way through the curtain and onto the stage, he is welcomed by a wave of cheers. He kneels down at the top of the stage, slaps the steel, and extends his arms out to his sides, letting out a scream. He quickly makes his way down the ramp and climbs up onto the apron. He turns to the crowd, holding onto the the top rope with his left arm while he raises his right arm over his head. He steps between the top and middle rope, entering the ring and walks to the opposite side of the ring facing the crowd, this time raising both arms as the fans mimic his gesture. He lowers his arms and steps into the corner of the ring, squatting down, but wrapping his arms over the middle rope for support while he waits for the match to begin.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Eli Sykes!
"Planetary (Go!)" by My Chemical Romance starts playing in the arena that fills up with cheers from the audience as blue and red lights start flashing randomly through the arena. As the song gets to the first verse, that's when David Arnold and Erin Vega come bursting out from the back to a big burst of cheers from the crowd. David and Erin, wearing their usual attire, stand at the top of the ramp before David takes Erin's hand, spins her around slowly, then drops to a knee with her sitting on his knee and the two pose for the crowd. They then head down the ramp together, high fiving and taking pictures with the crowd, before getting to the ring.
Once at the ring, David guides Erin up the steps before running over and hopping up on the apron, his back up against the far corner. Erin walks over to him, planting a kiss on his cheek to a big cheer while David pretends to almost pass out from it. He holds the ropes open as she enters, watching her tease him and everyone in the arena by getting in slowly, before he jumps over the top rope himself, then straight up onto the corner, posing while Erin stands by the corner posing as well. David hops down and they repeat this on the opposite corner before meeting in the middle of the ring. Erin takes David's vest and hat while kissing him on the cheek again, then exits the ring as David starts warming up for his match.
Patricia Downs: And next… David Arnold!
David Smith’s music hits the PA System. He comes out on the stage to a flurry of boos to the fans. David smirks arrogantly, not acknowledging them. David makes his way into the ring and stares his opponent down, waiting for the bell.
Patricia Downs: And finally… David Smith!
DING DING DING!
The match begins with Arnold and Smith locking up in the center and Eli backing off for a moment. Arnold knees Smith in the gut then rams him into the corner! Arnold starts hitting Smith with big corner thrusts until Smith pounds Arnold in the back then tosses him off and follows up with a big right hand to the face sending Arnold to the mat! Smith doesn't get a second to recover as Eli Sykes runs up and dropkicks Smith in the chest! Both get up and they lock up! Smith hits Eli with some right hands but Eli blocks one and hits Smith with a jawbreaker! Smith stumbles back holding his mouth but Eli follows up with a tough lariat! The fans start cheering Eli as he stands over DGS!
Steve White: Eli Sykes is a house of fire right now! First it seemed as if though Arnold was going to put DGS down but Eli Sykes is all over the number one contender right now!
Chuck Thompson: DGS has his hands full but he needs this win. Silver lost a bit of momentum when he lost to Wilmer Patacky after Scars and Stripes. DGS can't afford to do the same with either man tonight!
Eli goes to follow up but Arnold knocks him down from behind! Arnold grabs Eli and tosses him head first into the turnbuckle! Arnold bounces Eli off of the ropes and goes to catch him on his way back but Sykes reverses it into a belly to belly! Arnold gets up and Sykes clotheslines him over the top rope to the outside! Sykes turns around and sees DGS charging toward him so Sykes acts quick and pulls down the top rope, sending DGS stumbling over to the outside! Arnold slowly begins to get up on the outside and so does DGS but Sykes bolts across the ring and dives over the top rope to the outside, hitting both David's with a diving sommersault! The fans go wild!
Steve White: Bah Gawd! Sykes just landed on both Arnold and Smith with that flying move! Sykes is really on one here tonight and these fans are loving it!
Chuck Thompson: I think DGS will refuse to lose tonight! He needs the win or he'll be no different then Silver, heading into Aftermath. As for David Arnold, since Scars and Stripes he's tied the first week out, lost the second week out and now on the third week and the last week before Aftermath, he'll be looking to pick up a win!
All three men start stiring up on the outside. Sykes grabs Arnold by the hair and starts hitting him with right fists to the head! Sykes bounces Arnold's head off of the apron then rolls him back in the ring! Sykes jumps up on the apron as well, ready to get back in but DGS runs up and punches his leg out, sending Sykes falling back to the ground! DGS grabs Sykes by the hair then runs him up and tosses him right into the steel steps! The fans are loving the action! DGS slides back in the ring and stalks Arnold! Arnold gets up only to get hit with a big back bodydrop from DGS! DGS bounces off of the ropes and hits Arnold with a sommersault legdrop across the chest! DGS covers Arnold!

KICK OUT!
Steve White: Now DGS is really fighting back! He's hurt Eli Sykes with that brutal assault on the outside and now he's applying the pressure on Arnold right now!
Chuck Thompson: I thought DGS had the match won right there! This triple threat contest is really turning out to be a great showing!
Arnold and DGS both get up. DGS grabs Arnold and goes to whip him into the corner but Arnold pulls himself around and boots DGS in the gut! Arnold knees DGS in the midsection then tosses him into the corner! DGS springs out of the corner and swings at Arnold but Arnold ducks him! DGS goes for another swing but Arnold ducks that as well then clotheslines DGS back over the top rope sending him crashing to the outside! Arnold looks proud of himself but Sykes runs in and knocks Arnold down to the mat with a forearm to the back and the two start to fight!
Steve White: And now look at them go! David Arnold and Eli Sykes, trading bombs in the middle of the ring!
Chuck Thompson: And DGS is still down on the outside! We could see the match end right here, and the number-one contender would have nothing to do with it!
DGS gets up on the outside and re-enters the ring. Arnold and Sykes stop trading blows and head towards him, but DGS suddenly surges forward and drops both men with a double Greatsword Lariat! Both men's heads bounce hard off the mat, and Arnold is left writhing in the ring while Sykes rolls to the outside!
Chuck Thompson: WOW!
Steve White: Greatsword Lariat by DGS, taking out both Arnold and Sykes!
The crowd boos loudly as DGS gets back to his feet. He looks around the arena and shrugs, dusts off his shoulders, and goes over to the ropes. He steps through to the outside apron and drops down to the mat, waving off the match and starting to head back up the ramp! The crowd boos him even louder and the referee shouts for him to get back in the ring, but he ignores them both!
Steve White: Where the hell's he going?
Chuck Thompson: I think he's leaving! He said earlier tonight that he didn't care about winning or losing this match, but I thought he was joking! He really doesn't give a shit!
Steve White: WHAT?!
DGS continues to back up the ramp, smiling and shrugging as the fans continue to let him have it, but he doesn't see Silver Kazama come rushing out from the back and down the ramp! Silver grabs David by his hair and the back of his tights, runs him back down the ramp, and chucks him under the bottom rope into the ring. DGS gets to his feet, glaring angrily at Silver, but the EHWF Champion only smiles and motions for him to turn around. David Arnold has gotten back to his feet in the ring, and as DGS turns around he leaps and drops him with the Lights Out!
Steve White: LIGHTS OUT! SILVER THREW DGS BACK INTO THE RING, AND ARNOLD HIT THE LIGHTS OUT!
Chuck Thompson: HE'S GOT THE COVER!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here is your winner... David Arnold!
Steve White: Arnold did it! David Arnold just pinned David Smith!
Chuck Thompson: Yeah, after Silver threw him back into the ring!
The crowd pops huge for the upset, and Arnold celebrates in the ring as Sykes looks dejected on the outside. Silver begins making his way back up the ramp, looking pleased with his handiwork, but just before he reaches the backstage curtain DGS sits up in the middle of the ring and catches his eye! Wincing from the Lights Out he just took, David gets to his feet and, still glancing occasionally up at Silver, positions himself behind Arnold as he celebrates up on the second rope.
Steve White: Wait... DGS is back up! Bah Gawd!
Chuck Thompson: This isn't gonna be pretty!
Arnold's ecstatic expression becomes one of surprise as he's suddenly lifted up into an Electric Chair. DGS steps back to the center of the ring, turns to look Silver in the eye once more, and drops Arnold down into Kalameet's Wrath!
Crowd: OOOHHH!
Chuck Thompson: WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!
The crowd boos the hell out of David Smith as he sits up again, elbows on his knees, glaring up at Silver who is now glaring back down at him from atop the stage. A shot framing the champion and the contender, with the referee checking on Arnold and Sykes looking on from outside the ring, is that last thing seen before the commercial break.
We come back to the arena where Patricia Downs is ready and waiting with her mic!
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
"Wake me up!"
As those words blare over the audio system, the music begins and Ryan Mercury walks out to heavy boos. He has a pair of black trunks on, with a white star as the centerpiece. He has white elbow pads on, along with black kneepads and white boots. He has a black Adidas tracksuit jacket on, with white trim. It is unzipped but the hood is up, covering half of his face. He walks down the ramp, holding his arms out to the hissing fans, as if he is embracing them. He climbs slowly through the middle ropes and pulls his jacket off, throwing it to the outside. He smirks and then approaches the referee, deciding to have a quiet word in his ear.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first... Ryan Mercury!
Young Kings hits the PA system. The whole arena goes pitch black for a moment but dim blue lights come on and offer some illumination. We see the big silhouette of Mazzio as he slowly raises his arms up. He walks out onto the stage and the lighting becomes brighter. He raises his arms up two more times then throws them down sending a massive explosion of blue pyro rocketing out of the stage. Mazzio then proceeds down the ramp and shakes hands with the fans. He gets in the ring and takes off his tank top and throws it into the crowd before raising his arms while climbing the turnbuckle.
Patricia Downs: And his opponent... Mazzio!
DING DING DING!
The bell sounds and Mazzio advances on Mercury but Mercury finds refuge in the corner and the ref breaks up the action. Mercury comes back to the center and they go to lock up but Mercury moves behind Mazzio and hits him with big boots to the back of the knees! Mercury tries to get Mazzio down on the mat but he can't. Mazzio turns around and swats Mercury down to the mat with a right hand. Mercury backs off to the corner, clutching onto the ropes!
Steve White: Mercury may have bitten off a little more than he could chew in this rematch, Chuck.
Chuck Thompson: I'm just happy that Ryan MERCURY is back in EHWF baby! No more Ryan Morgan, no more Rain! Just Ryan Mercury!
Mazzio yanks Mercury off of the ropes and plants him down on the mat with a big scoopslam! Mercury rolls around in pain but Mazzio shows no mercy. He picks Mercury up once more and fires some big right hands at Mercury until he crashes into the corner! Mazzio backs off and follows up on Mercury with a big corner splash! Mercury drops down in the corner, hurting as Mazzio walks back up to him! Mercury quickly fires a kick to Mazzio's knee then rolls outside, buying himself some time as he tries to recover.
Steve White: Mercury was able to strike Mazzio hard in the knee right there and escape the ring for some rest but Mazzio has been all over Mercury in this match tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Mazzio almost fractured Mercury's arm 2 weeks ago! That has to be playing through Mercury's mind even if Mercury is back to his old self!
Mazzio's knee is in pain but he goes outside the ring and follows Mercury! Mazzio drops Mercury with a big right hand then rams him into the apron and tosses him back into the ring! The fans are going wild! Mazzio gets in himself as Mercury is getting up but Mazzio nails Mercury with a big spinebuster! Mercury slams into the mat hurt, pleading with Mazzio but Dawson Hayes suddenly starts running down the ramp!
Steve White: Dawson Hayes!? What's he doing out here now!? We've seen enough of him tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Remember he caused the DQ last time Mercury and Mazzio tangled? Dawson is out here to help his mate!
Mazzio spots Hayes and Hayes goes to slide in the ring but Mazzio doesn't let him, kicking and stomping away every attempt! Mazzio and Hayes stare off as the ref leans on the ropes and tells Dawson to get out. Mazzio goes to turn back to the match but Dawson jumps up on the apron! Mazzio rockets off with a burst of speed and leaps in the air, nailing Dawson with an Iron Punch right to the jaw, sending Dawson flying from the apron to the outside!
Steve White: Bah Gawd! Mazzio just knocked out Dawson Hayes! Bah Gawd what a punch!
Chuck Thompson: Watch out!
While Mazzio and the ref look out at the KO'd Hayes on the outside, Mercury comes from behind and low blows Mazzio as hard as he can! Mercury rolls Mazzio up off of the low blow and uses the ropes for leverage without the ref's knowledge! The ref slides down in front of them and counts!

Steve White: No! No! He stole it dammit! Mazzio was bamboozled!
Chuck Thompson: Ryan Mercury is back! Yes!
Mercury quickly gets out of the ring! Mazzio is enraged and follows him outside but a laughing Mercury runs back up to the stage. Mazzio stops on the outside and grabs a knocked out Dawson Hayes! Mercury's expression changes as he gestures to Mazzio to put Hayes down.
Chuck Thompson: What's Mazzio gonna do!?
Mazzio hoists Dawson Hayes up on his shoulder and runs Dawson's head into the ring post! He drops Dawson in a heap on the floor as we see the knocked out enforcer bleeding from his forehead! Mazzio picks Dawson up once more and presses him overhead!
Chuck Thompson: Don't do it Mazzio! Hayes is knocked out! He's a defenseless man!
Mazzio walks over with Hayes overhead and tosses him right on the announce table, putting him through it sending the fans wild with cheers! Mercury shakes his head as Mazzio stares back at him. Mercury walks away behind the curtain as we pan back to a knocked out and bleeding Hayes in the debris of the announce table. We fade out to a commercial.
We come back to the arena where Patricia Downs is ready and waiting with her mic!
Patricia Downs: Ladies and Gentlemen this main event contest is a Steel Cage match!
“Take em Out” by Rev Theory suddenly blares through the speakers and the titantron comes to life as Daniel Creed appears out from backstage and walks to the top of the entrance ramp with his signature bat in his hand, dragging behind him. Dressed in a normal pair of jeans and a t-shirt complete with the leather biker vest and wrapped hands he looks more like he is ready for a street fight then a wrestling match, he lifts the bat from the ground and points it down at the ring before bringing the bat down to rest on his shoulder and starts his march down to the ring. Once at ringside he takes a couple of practice swings at the steel steps and a clank rinks trough the arena with every strike, once he is done he lays his weapon down by the steps and makes his way into the ring where he removes his vest and shirt dropping them outside on top of the steel steps and waits in his corner for the match to begin.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first... Conner Creed!
The lights go out in the arena as blue and white strobe lights light up the stage. “Not Gonna Die" by Skillet hits over the PA System with the lights flashing in time with the rhythm. The black curtain is pushed aside and Silver Kazama steps out from behind it onto the stage. The crowd erupts into cheers as Silver walks over to the left side of the stage, his arms extended out to his sides as he panders to the fans.
He walks over to the right side of the stage and taunts to the fans again to another chorus of cheers. He moves back towards the center of the stage and begins to make his way down the ramp as he slaps the hands of fans on his way down to the ring.
He slides into the ring and jumps up onto the top turnbuckle, throwing both of his arms into the air, and pointing to the sky. He climbs down before walking over to the far set of ropes, climbing on the middle rope before holding his arm up again and calling out to the fans. He climbs down once more and walks towards his corner. He pulls his shirt up over his head and throws it into the crowd as “Not Gonna Die” fades out of ear shot and the lights return to normal.
Patricia Downs: And his opponent... The EHWF Champion… Silver Kazama!
DING DING DING!

Conner runs up and dives into Silver on the cage. Silver is hurt and Conner taunts him and boots Silver in the gut. Conner grabs Silver and throws the Champion against the steel cage once more!
Chuck Thompson: Conner winning here tonight would be huge, would have a victory over the world champion!
Steve White: You’re damn right it would. But I can’t help but think that Rissi put Silver in this match because of what happened last week…
Silver ducks a few swings from Creed but is whipped against the cage by Conner. Silver bounces off and Conner goes to clothesline but Silver ducks it. Silver bounces of the other ropes and when he comes close to Conner he jumps up and hits a running high knee on him. Conner is down on the mat but quickly gets up.

KICK OUT!
Chuck Thompson: He has to do more damage than that Steve!
Steve White: Silver has been through hell these past months and it’s just going to get worse next week when Smith tries to take the title back!

Silver bounces off the cage then comes back hitting a flying forearm on Conner! Silver gets up and we see he’s bleeding from his forehead! Silver goes to climb the cage but Creed springs up and pushes the cage, knocking Silver down right onto him!
Chuck Thompson: Silver is bleeding and he tried to escape the cage but Creed said no!
Steve White: Both men are putting on a great main event tonight but if I were Silver I’d want to spend as little time as possible in that cage!
Chuck Thompson: Conner wants to beat him up for his own personal gain! Conner wants Silver to fall to him so he can make a name for himself but Silver, even though he doesn’t want to expend much in this match will not back down!
Steve White: Silver has to think about DGS at Aftermath next week as well though. An Empty Arena Match will be so physically taxing, he should be in 100% condition for the title defence.
Both men are down on the mat. Silver suddenly gets up and the crowd cheers. Conner struggles on the ground for a while as Silver makes his way to the corner. Silver starts waving his arms as the crowd gets louder and louder. Silver goes up and starts climbing the cage but Conner rushes over and grabs Silver down.

Silver slowly starts to get to his feet on the outside but James Champ runs in from the crowd and slams Silver’s head off of the cage! Silver falls down to the ground, semi conscious and bleeding profusely as Champ stands around and smirks at the booing fans!
Chuck Thompson: The damn match was over and Champ just ran in and bounces Silver’s head off the damn cage at full force! Get this asshole out of here!
Steve White: I think we might need medical staff down here! Someone get Champ out of here!
Champ raises his arms over Silver as the fans boo. On the stage we see David Smith appear, watching the scene unfold. DGS shows no emotion and just watches on as Champ taunts around the cage over a hurt Silver.
Chuck Thompson: That make so much sense! DGS and James Champ are brothers! They’re in it together!
Steve White: No they’re not! They’re not working together and they’re not real brothers! James Champ is just an asshole who needs to have his ass kicked. Ladies and Gentlemen it’s been one amazing night. We’ll see you at Aftermath next week! Good night!
As Champ spots DGS, he taunts to him too while he stands over Silver. We fade out to the EHWF Logo, ending the show.
The camera pans around the whole arena, showing all the screaming fans on their feet ready for another night full of action. After a few moments of the fans going crazy, the camera pans down to ringside, where the best announcers to have ever lived, Steve White and Chuck Thompson sit.
Steve White: Bah Gawd! Bah Gawd! Bah Gawd! Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to Friday Night Mayhem! We’re only 1 week away from Aftermath and tonight is the night where all the anger and tension reaches its peak before the backlash of Scars and Stripes comes to ahead at Aftermath!
Chuck Thompson: That’s right Steve! All these fans can bet their welfare checks that there will be some amazing scenes to witness here on Mayhem before Aftermath! Tonight we have Silver Kazama taking on Conner Creed in a steel cage match and many are questioning if Silver Kazama was placed in a steel cage match one week out from fighting DGS because of what happened last week with Michael Rissi’s wife and our GM, Joanna Rissi.
Steve White: Well Silver Kazama was Rissi’s new boy until he kicked his wife in the head at the end of Mayhem last week. Ever since then it’s been reported that Rissi has been quite negative and pissed off at Kazama and it’s even caused people to speculate that Rissi has cut ties with Silver Kazama and is now on #teamDGS.
Chuck Thompson: Well I’m sure with the announcement later tonight we’ll find out just who has the support of Rissi; Silver or DGS? Speaking of DGS tonight he faces David Arnold and Eli Sykes in a triple threat and we see the triumphant return of Ryan Mercury to face Mazzio in a rematch!
Steve White: It’ll be a great night like always but I really can’t wait for Aftermath and King of Bereavement where we will see new Tag Team Champions crowned. Will it be the new and exiting Masturbation or the ruthless Insidious? Either way I’m pumped up so lets start the night!
We pan to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the first match of the night.
Patricia Downs: This opening contest is a 6 man tag team contest and it’s set for one fall!
”No New Friends, No New Friends, No New Friends – No No New.”
The PA System sparks up and the fans all give a mixed reaction as the team of Chicken Shit, Steve Jessup and Van Jameson come out onto the stage. They look around at the fans then make their way down the ramp to some boos. They get to the ring and all get in, waiting for their opponents as the PA dies down and the lights go back to normal.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… The team of Chicken Shit, Steve Jessop & Van Jameson!
Rose, Maddie Murdock and Savannah come out onto the stage to somewhat more positive reactions. Rose holds up her EHWF Hardcore Championship and bolts down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans as she gets to the ring and slides in! Maddie and Savannah follow, taking their time down the ramp. They get in the ring and come face to face with their opponents, waiting for the bell to ring.

Steve White: And here comes Savannah who has been on fire recently! Can she take down Van Jameson here tonight or is he going to overcome her with another Van Jaminator and finish her off!

Patricia Downs: Here are your winners… The team of Savannah… Maddie Murdock and The EHWF Hardcore Champion… Rose!
The winning team gets their arms raised while the PA system goes off. We fade out to the backstage area.
We open to an almost pitch black office, the only light we get in the setting is the illumination of the nights sky and outside lights through the blinds and the light peering into the office through the open door. As we pan through the dark room we see a figure sitting on a desk with his back to us facing the window. A shadow casts over him from the door as an EHWF Executive knocks from outside.
Mark Andrews: Mr. Bash. The others are requesting your presence in the joint office to decide what should be done regarding the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath.
Now revealed as Brandon Bash, He raises himself up from the desk and looks up, continuing to stare out the window as Andrews awaits a response.
Brandon Bash: And why do they need me?
Mark Andrews: To decide -- what should be done regarding the EHWF Championship at Af...
Brandon Bash: Well I assume the rematch between Kazama and Smith will go ahead as planned. There is no need to decide anything else.
Mark Andrews: Mr. and Mrs. Rissi along with Mr. Wilson have came up with a stipulation to attach to the match. As emissary to the Board of Directors you should hear it first...
Bash is silent for a moment.
Brandon Bash: …How’s her face?
Mark Andrews: Still a little bruised.
Bash looks down.
Brandon Bash: Tell me… Is Rissi still being negative about Silver? Has he signed his demise as champion with this new stipulation?
Mark Andrews: I’m – I’m not too sure sir. Rissi himself doesn’t regard Silver too highly right now. Joanna keeps trying to tell him it was just an accident but David Smith and Matthew Kazama aren’t Rissi’s most favourite employees at the moment.
We see from the side, small smirk grow on Bash’s face.
Brandon Bash: Silver… Truly a complete idiot, isn’t he? Almost as stupid as David Smith himself.
Mark Andrews: Sir?
Brandon Bash: You can’t be this dim can you? Silver messed up a good thing he had going on. If he was still buds with Rissi chances are Rissi would have had no effect on the outcome of his match but now it might go the other way. Silver might be up the creek without a paddle… As for David Smith – his brain simply can’t put two and two together.
Mark Andrews: What do you mean?
Brandon Bash: It’s not secret I have my own interests here in EHWF. I’ve admitted it, you know it, Rissi knows it and the competitors and fans know it. The EHWF Championship is one of those interests. Davey has had too much of a hard on for Rissi to see that it was I who booked a 6 man main event match at Scars and Stripes Rissi just made it more violent. It’s true, I don’t want David to have the EHWF Championship and I don’t want Silver to have it. either…
Mark Andrews: But…
Brandon Bash: But why does Silver have it now if I didn’t want either of them to hold it? Well some things you can’t help. Some things you can’t anticipate… But I’d rather the title be on Silver then DGS – because I think I can take it easier… Although, after seeing Silver’s performance at Scars and Stripes, I’m not so sure now.
Mark Andrews: Regrets?
Brandon Bash: No… but Legion was supposed to walk away with the gold that night. Now with no more Legion I’m not quite sure who I’ll find to accomplish my interests. The bottom line is Silver is too caught up with David Smith and David Smith is too caught up with Rissi and Management to even see what’s coming for them. It’s not like they don’t know I’m around the corner, it’s not like they don’t know what I think and it’s not like they don’t know what I’m planning but like I said, they’re too busy. Their brains aren’t big enough to realize what’s what let alone focus on more than one thing at a time. They know all of this, they know what I want and still they refuse to focus on what’s important.
Mark Andrews: Either way Mr. Bash, you have to come and hear this stipulation so you can tell the Board tonight. I’m sure this won’t mess up your plans.
Brandon Bash: …I’ll be down in a second.
Andrews nods and walks off back down the hall as we fade back into the arena.
We pan to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match of the night.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
The opening dialogue of "Bad Religion" by Godsmack starts and out comes Aaron with a local woman on each of his arms and a beer in his hand. He makes his way down the ramp to the ring.

Chuck Thompson: Mazy took a big blow right there! We might have to stop this one!
Mazy stumbles up to his feet from Wilmer’s encouragement but Hudson runs up and hits him with a sunset flip! As Hudson covers him on the edge, Grant runs over on the outside behind the ref and holds Mazy’s arms down on the apron! The ref doesn’t notice and counts!

Steve White: Bah Gawd they stole one right there!

Wilmer rushes into the ring and goes to help out Mazy! Hudson rushes back in the ring with Grant, both wielding steel chairs! They advance on Masturbation Nation, wildly swinging with the intent to destroy their KoB opponents! Mazy and Patacky roll out of the ring just in time and start to back up the ramp while Insidious taunts out at them.

A hush goes over the crowd as the lights lower to a level that is just above off. The sound of a woman's voice can be heard over the loud speakers. "Help me Handsome Devil! You're my only hope!" With that, "Invincible" by OK GO hits the loud speaker and the once quite crowed bursts into a earth shaking roar as Handsome Devil bursts from out behind the curtain. A huge smile spreads across his face, as he looks around at all the screaming fans. He then runs down the ramp, high fiving some of the fans along the way. Not showing any sign of slowing down as he approaches the ring, Devil slides under the bottom rope and continues his way to the opposite ropes where he jumps on to the middle rope and raises his fist with a battle cry.

Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Handsome Devil!
T.Q's music blasts throughout the arena as fireworks begin to explode from the stage. T.Q comes out and walks down the ramp way with a cocky smirk on his face.

TQ Smooth: Last week Handsome Devil fucked with me and look what happened tonight! I fucked him up. Last week Bill Ryder also decided to fuck with me and just like Handsome, he’s not going to get away with it. That disgruntled little boy Bill Ryder is on notice from here on out. Watch your back pussy!
TQ’s music hits and he drops the mic on the outside. TQ gets off of the turnbuckle and taunts the fans as we fade out to the interview area.
We come in as Alexander Corvis is standing by with Michael Rissi and Scott Wilson in the interview area backstage.
Alexander Corvis: Ladies and Gentlemen joining me right now is EHWF Owner Michael Rissi. Mr. Rissi, thank you for your time tonight, now you’ve promised us an announcement regarding the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath against Silver Kazama and David Smith. Before we get that groundbreaking announcement, can we get your feelings on both competitors following what happened to your wife at the hands of Silver Kazama at the end of Mayhem last week?
Michael Rissi: My personal feelings about Kazama and Smith? I don’t need to elaborate on either of them in detail. All I’ll say is that they’re both fucked… Both of these guys are completely fucked in the head. They’ve taken their obsessive compulsive rivalry too far now and they showed that with their reckless behavior last week when Silver hit Joanna with the Devil Trigger. I expected better out of Silver because David GS has always been a complete fuckwit but Silver, I thought had more sense then to get carried away and reckless like he did… Which leads me to MY announcement.
Alexander Corvis: Please. Please elaborate on that.
Michael Rissi: I’ve talked to Brandon Bash and he’s confirmed with the Board of Directors that we’re going to add a stipulation to the EHWF Championship match at Aftermath. That stipulation is that the loser at Aftermath cannot challenge for the EHWF Championship again while the winner remains champion...
Alexander Corvis: Wow! Really? So if Silver retains DGS cannot challenge for the World title again as long as Silver’s champion and if DGS wins, Silver won’t be able to have a shot at the title again while DGS is champion? That’s quite a bold stipulation to put into this match. Does it have anything to do with what occurred with your wife last week and your relationship with these two men?
Michael Rissi: Yeah… Probably. It’s no secret that I’m not fond of either guy but I won’t personally influence the outcome of their match – personally I hope they beat the shit out of each other all night until we have to cart them off to the ER but as for who wins and who becomes Champion at the end of the night… I couldn’t give one fuck. Both of these guys will learn that their disregard for other people isn’t acceptable and at Aftermath, when both of them are bloody and bruised and their careers are shortened as a result – they will understand this lesson, even if they don’t atone for their actions.
Wilson stands behind Rissi and nods in agreement but Corvis looks a little confused.
Alexander Corvis: Do you really expect that much bloodshed to take place in a straight up singles contest between the two? For all we know the match might only last 5 or 10 minutes…
Michael Rissi: Right, which is why Wilson here put out some feelers to both Silver’s and David GS’s camps and all three parties were able to agree on a special match type at Aftermath.
Rissi takes the mic and gives it to Wilson.
Scott Wilson: That’s right. See neither Silver Kazama nor DGS will be with the rest of us at Aftermath… Sure they’ll be nearby in Dallas but they won’t be in the same venue. Silver Kazama will defend the EHWF Championship against DGS in another arena in Dallas in an… Empty Arena Match!
The fans watching back on the tron go wild as Wilson nods along.
Alexander Corvis: An Empty Arena Match? That’s a really big development regarding this match? How will that work on the card?
Michael Rissi: Well Corvis, I suggest you watch and watch carefully. Watch two grown men with pure hatred for each other beat the living shit out of one another in an anything goes contest for the biggest prize in our industry. Don’t miss it…
Rissi and Wilson walk off leaving Corvis a little shocked. We fade out back to the arena.
We come back to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
The crowd erupts in boos as the opening riff of "Someone To Hate" by Demon Hunter begins to blare throughout the arena. As soon as the drums pick up, "Homicidal" Lucas Mercer steps out from behind the curtain with his hair hanging down over his face. When the chorus kicks in, he whips his hair back, revealing his face to the crowd. He holds his arms out and drops to one knee, crushing one fist in to the stage. He stands and runs down to the ring, sliding in under the bottom rope. He leaps to his feet with agility and holds his arms out again, yelling to the crowd. He stops and begins pacing back and forth in the ring, awaiting the start of the match.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Lucas Mercer!
A song begins to blare throughout the arena and the fans look on in confusion. Nothing in playing on the tron and then suddenly Blaise's name appears on the screen and the fans begin to cheer. Every now and then the fans would cheer for Blaise because they truly appreciated her talent despite the sour attitude she had. She appears from the back and the arena is swallowed in darkness with one small spotlight that follows the diva's every move. She has a dark black hoodie on and is wearing a pair of black gloves, a different attire than usual the fans take notice as she stands on top of the ramp for a moment. She begins to decide down the ramp, paying no attention to the fans. Her eyes solely focused on the ring in front of her.
Blaise walks around to the side of the ring and jumps up. She swings her leg as she gets on the apron, before going into the ring. She walks to the other side of the ring and makes her way to the turnbuckle where she takes off her hood. Blaise appears to be slightly different looking. She's sporting darker make up and her hair seems to be a couple of shades darker. It appears a lot of has changed in the last few months, and not just in EHWF in Blaise's time apart from the company. She takes her jacket off that has the letters "QB" sowed into the back and tosses it at the ring announcer. And then a vintage moment of Blaise happens in which she demands the referee to help her down from the turnbuckle, displaying that she still is in fact the same handful she was not too long ago. She looks on with her arms crossed on her chest, unimpressed.
Patricia Downs: And his opponent… Blaise!
DING DING DING!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here is your winner... Blaise!
Blaise gets up and starts to celebrate but everything is interrupted as War by Sick Puppies hits the PA System. Dawson Hayes makes his way out onto the stage with a mic as Blaise looks on confused.
Steve White: Dawson Hayes? What’s he doing out here?
Dawson Hayes: Aww… Look who’s back! Look who it is… Blaise!
Blaise looks on, still confused as she holds her arms out to Hayes.
Dawson Hayes: You know my mate Ryan and you had a thing once upon a time. Maybe it was serious and maybe it wasn’t but you just left him high and dry with you little injury or time off or whatever… Ryan’s just now getting back to himself but he hears your name and I think he changes a bit y’know.
Blaise flashes half a smirk as she leans on the top rope and watches Hayes talk.
Dawson Hayes: The lads just getting back to his old ways and he doesn’t need you distracting him and complicating his life anymore. I’m not going to let you cupcake.
Blaise looks on bored as she fakes a yawn. Dawson Hayes’ music hits once again as he turns away and leaves, leaving Blaise unimpressed in the ring as we fade out to a commercial.
We come back to the ring. Patricia Downs makes her way to the ring with her mic, ready to introduce the next match.
Patricia Downs: This following contest is a triple threat match set for one fall!
"The stars at night are big and bright deep in the heart of Texas!"
"Texas Blood Money" by Upon a Burning Body brings people to their feet as they await the appearance of Eli Sykes. As he makes his way through the curtain and onto the stage, he is welcomed by a wave of cheers. He kneels down at the top of the stage, slaps the steel, and extends his arms out to his sides, letting out a scream. He quickly makes his way down the ramp and climbs up onto the apron. He turns to the crowd, holding onto the the top rope with his left arm while he raises his right arm over his head. He steps between the top and middle rope, entering the ring and walks to the opposite side of the ring facing the crowd, this time raising both arms as the fans mimic his gesture. He lowers his arms and steps into the corner of the ring, squatting down, but wrapping his arms over the middle rope for support while he waits for the match to begin.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first… Eli Sykes!
"Planetary (Go!)" by My Chemical Romance starts playing in the arena that fills up with cheers from the audience as blue and red lights start flashing randomly through the arena. As the song gets to the first verse, that's when David Arnold and Erin Vega come bursting out from the back to a big burst of cheers from the crowd. David and Erin, wearing their usual attire, stand at the top of the ramp before David takes Erin's hand, spins her around slowly, then drops to a knee with her sitting on his knee and the two pose for the crowd. They then head down the ramp together, high fiving and taking pictures with the crowd, before getting to the ring.
Once at the ring, David guides Erin up the steps before running over and hopping up on the apron, his back up against the far corner. Erin walks over to him, planting a kiss on his cheek to a big cheer while David pretends to almost pass out from it. He holds the ropes open as she enters, watching her tease him and everyone in the arena by getting in slowly, before he jumps over the top rope himself, then straight up onto the corner, posing while Erin stands by the corner posing as well. David hops down and they repeat this on the opposite corner before meeting in the middle of the ring. Erin takes David's vest and hat while kissing him on the cheek again, then exits the ring as David starts warming up for his match.
Patricia Downs: And next… David Arnold!
David Smith’s music hits the PA System. He comes out on the stage to a flurry of boos to the fans. David smirks arrogantly, not acknowledging them. David makes his way into the ring and stares his opponent down, waiting for the bell.
Patricia Downs: And finally… David Smith!
DING DING DING!
Match #5: David Smith vs. Eli Sykes vs. David Arnold
The match begins with Arnold and Smith locking up in the center and Eli backing off for a moment. Arnold knees Smith in the gut then rams him into the corner! Arnold starts hitting Smith with big corner thrusts until Smith pounds Arnold in the back then tosses him off and follows up with a big right hand to the face sending Arnold to the mat! Smith doesn't get a second to recover as Eli Sykes runs up and dropkicks Smith in the chest! Both get up and they lock up! Smith hits Eli with some right hands but Eli blocks one and hits Smith with a jawbreaker! Smith stumbles back holding his mouth but Eli follows up with a tough lariat! The fans start cheering Eli as he stands over DGS!
Steve White: Eli Sykes is a house of fire right now! First it seemed as if though Arnold was going to put DGS down but Eli Sykes is all over the number one contender right now!
Chuck Thompson: DGS has his hands full but he needs this win. Silver lost a bit of momentum when he lost to Wilmer Patacky after Scars and Stripes. DGS can't afford to do the same with either man tonight!
Eli goes to follow up but Arnold knocks him down from behind! Arnold grabs Eli and tosses him head first into the turnbuckle! Arnold bounces Eli off of the ropes and goes to catch him on his way back but Sykes reverses it into a belly to belly! Arnold gets up and Sykes clotheslines him over the top rope to the outside! Sykes turns around and sees DGS charging toward him so Sykes acts quick and pulls down the top rope, sending DGS stumbling over to the outside! Arnold slowly begins to get up on the outside and so does DGS but Sykes bolts across the ring and dives over the top rope to the outside, hitting both David's with a diving sommersault! The fans go wild!
Steve White: Bah Gawd! Sykes just landed on both Arnold and Smith with that flying move! Sykes is really on one here tonight and these fans are loving it!
Chuck Thompson: I think DGS will refuse to lose tonight! He needs the win or he'll be no different then Silver, heading into Aftermath. As for David Arnold, since Scars and Stripes he's tied the first week out, lost the second week out and now on the third week and the last week before Aftermath, he'll be looking to pick up a win!
All three men start stiring up on the outside. Sykes grabs Arnold by the hair and starts hitting him with right fists to the head! Sykes bounces Arnold's head off of the apron then rolls him back in the ring! Sykes jumps up on the apron as well, ready to get back in but DGS runs up and punches his leg out, sending Sykes falling back to the ground! DGS grabs Sykes by the hair then runs him up and tosses him right into the steel steps! The fans are loving the action! DGS slides back in the ring and stalks Arnold! Arnold gets up only to get hit with a big back bodydrop from DGS! DGS bounces off of the ropes and hits Arnold with a sommersault legdrop across the chest! DGS covers Arnold!

KICK OUT!
Steve White: Now DGS is really fighting back! He's hurt Eli Sykes with that brutal assault on the outside and now he's applying the pressure on Arnold right now!
Chuck Thompson: I thought DGS had the match won right there! This triple threat contest is really turning out to be a great showing!
Arnold and DGS both get up. DGS grabs Arnold and goes to whip him into the corner but Arnold pulls himself around and boots DGS in the gut! Arnold knees DGS in the midsection then tosses him into the corner! DGS springs out of the corner and swings at Arnold but Arnold ducks him! DGS goes for another swing but Arnold ducks that as well then clotheslines DGS back over the top rope sending him crashing to the outside! Arnold looks proud of himself but Sykes runs in and knocks Arnold down to the mat with a forearm to the back and the two start to fight!
Steve White: And now look at them go! David Arnold and Eli Sykes, trading bombs in the middle of the ring!
Chuck Thompson: And DGS is still down on the outside! We could see the match end right here, and the number-one contender would have nothing to do with it!
DGS gets up on the outside and re-enters the ring. Arnold and Sykes stop trading blows and head towards him, but DGS suddenly surges forward and drops both men with a double Greatsword Lariat! Both men's heads bounce hard off the mat, and Arnold is left writhing in the ring while Sykes rolls to the outside!
Chuck Thompson: WOW!
Steve White: Greatsword Lariat by DGS, taking out both Arnold and Sykes!
The crowd boos loudly as DGS gets back to his feet. He looks around the arena and shrugs, dusts off his shoulders, and goes over to the ropes. He steps through to the outside apron and drops down to the mat, waving off the match and starting to head back up the ramp! The crowd boos him even louder and the referee shouts for him to get back in the ring, but he ignores them both!
Steve White: Where the hell's he going?
Chuck Thompson: I think he's leaving! He said earlier tonight that he didn't care about winning or losing this match, but I thought he was joking! He really doesn't give a shit!
Steve White: WHAT?!
DGS continues to back up the ramp, smiling and shrugging as the fans continue to let him have it, but he doesn't see Silver Kazama come rushing out from the back and down the ramp! Silver grabs David by his hair and the back of his tights, runs him back down the ramp, and chucks him under the bottom rope into the ring. DGS gets to his feet, glaring angrily at Silver, but the EHWF Champion only smiles and motions for him to turn around. David Arnold has gotten back to his feet in the ring, and as DGS turns around he leaps and drops him with the Lights Out!
Steve White: LIGHTS OUT! SILVER THREW DGS BACK INTO THE RING, AND ARNOLD HIT THE LIGHTS OUT!
Chuck Thompson: HE'S GOT THE COVER!

DING DING DING!
Patricia Downs: Here is your winner... David Arnold!
Steve White: Arnold did it! David Arnold just pinned David Smith!
Chuck Thompson: Yeah, after Silver threw him back into the ring!
The crowd pops huge for the upset, and Arnold celebrates in the ring as Sykes looks dejected on the outside. Silver begins making his way back up the ramp, looking pleased with his handiwork, but just before he reaches the backstage curtain DGS sits up in the middle of the ring and catches his eye! Wincing from the Lights Out he just took, David gets to his feet and, still glancing occasionally up at Silver, positions himself behind Arnold as he celebrates up on the second rope.
Steve White: Wait... DGS is back up! Bah Gawd!
Chuck Thompson: This isn't gonna be pretty!
Arnold's ecstatic expression becomes one of surprise as he's suddenly lifted up into an Electric Chair. DGS steps back to the center of the ring, turns to look Silver in the eye once more, and drops Arnold down into Kalameet's Wrath!
Crowd: OOOHHH!
Chuck Thompson: WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!
The crowd boos the hell out of David Smith as he sits up again, elbows on his knees, glaring up at Silver who is now glaring back down at him from atop the stage. A shot framing the champion and the contender, with the referee checking on Arnold and Sykes looking on from outside the ring, is that last thing seen before the commercial break.
We come back to the arena where Patricia Downs is ready and waiting with her mic!
Patricia Downs: This following contest is set for one fall!
"Wake me up!"
As those words blare over the audio system, the music begins and Ryan Mercury walks out to heavy boos. He has a pair of black trunks on, with a white star as the centerpiece. He has white elbow pads on, along with black kneepads and white boots. He has a black Adidas tracksuit jacket on, with white trim. It is unzipped but the hood is up, covering half of his face. He walks down the ramp, holding his arms out to the hissing fans, as if he is embracing them. He climbs slowly through the middle ropes and pulls his jacket off, throwing it to the outside. He smirks and then approaches the referee, deciding to have a quiet word in his ear.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first... Ryan Mercury!
Young Kings hits the PA system. The whole arena goes pitch black for a moment but dim blue lights come on and offer some illumination. We see the big silhouette of Mazzio as he slowly raises his arms up. He walks out onto the stage and the lighting becomes brighter. He raises his arms up two more times then throws them down sending a massive explosion of blue pyro rocketing out of the stage. Mazzio then proceeds down the ramp and shakes hands with the fans. He gets in the ring and takes off his tank top and throws it into the crowd before raising his arms while climbing the turnbuckle.
Patricia Downs: And his opponent... Mazzio!
DING DING DING!
Match #6: Mazzio vs. Ryan Mercury

Mercury comes back to the center and they go to lock up but Mercury moves behind Mazzio and hits him with big boots to the back of the knees! Mercury tries to get Mazzio down on the mat but he can't. Mazzio turns around and swats Mercury down to the mat with a right hand. Mercury backs off to the corner, clutching onto the ropes!
Steve White: Mercury may have bitten off a little more than he could chew in this rematch, Chuck.
Chuck Thompson: I'm just happy that Ryan MERCURY is back in EHWF baby! No more Ryan Morgan, no more Rain! Just Ryan Mercury!

Mercury drops down in the corner, hurting as Mazzio walks back up to him! Mercury quickly fires a kick to Mazzio's knee then rolls outside, buying himself some time as he tries to recover.
Steve White: Mercury was able to strike Mazzio hard in the knee right there and escape the ring for some rest but Mazzio has been all over Mercury in this match tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Mazzio almost fractured Mercury's arm 2 weeks ago! That has to be playing through Mercury's mind even if Mercury is back to his old self!

Steve White: Dawson Hayes!? What's he doing out here now!? We've seen enough of him tonight!
Chuck Thompson: Remember he caused the DQ last time Mercury and Mazzio tangled? Dawson is out here to help his mate!
Mazzio spots Hayes and Hayes goes to slide in the ring but Mazzio doesn't let him, kicking and stomping away every attempt! Mazzio and Hayes stare off as the ref leans on the ropes and tells Dawson to get out. Mazzio goes to turn back to the match but Dawson jumps up on the apron!

Mercury walks away behind the curtain as we pan back to a knocked out and bleeding Hayes in the debris of the announce table. We fade out to a commercial.
We come back to the arena where Patricia Downs is ready and waiting with her mic!
Patricia Downs: Ladies and Gentlemen this main event contest is a Steel Cage match!
“Take em Out” by Rev Theory suddenly blares through the speakers and the titantron comes to life as Daniel Creed appears out from backstage and walks to the top of the entrance ramp with his signature bat in his hand, dragging behind him. Dressed in a normal pair of jeans and a t-shirt complete with the leather biker vest and wrapped hands he looks more like he is ready for a street fight then a wrestling match, he lifts the bat from the ground and points it down at the ring before bringing the bat down to rest on his shoulder and starts his march down to the ring. Once at ringside he takes a couple of practice swings at the steel steps and a clank rinks trough the arena with every strike, once he is done he lays his weapon down by the steps and makes his way into the ring where he removes his vest and shirt dropping them outside on top of the steel steps and waits in his corner for the match to begin.
Patricia Downs: Introducing first... Conner Creed!
The lights go out in the arena as blue and white strobe lights light up the stage. “Not Gonna Die" by Skillet hits over the PA System with the lights flashing in time with the rhythm. The black curtain is pushed aside and Silver Kazama steps out from behind it onto the stage. The crowd erupts into cheers as Silver walks over to the left side of the stage, his arms extended out to his sides as he panders to the fans.
He walks over to the right side of the stage and taunts to the fans again to another chorus of cheers. He moves back towards the center of the stage and begins to make his way down the ramp as he slaps the hands of fans on his way down to the ring.
He slides into the ring and jumps up onto the top turnbuckle, throwing both of his arms into the air, and pointing to the sky. He climbs down before walking over to the far set of ropes, climbing on the middle rope before holding his arm up again and calling out to the fans. He climbs down once more and walks towards his corner. He pulls his shirt up over his head and throws it into the crowd as “Not Gonna Die” fades out of ear shot and the lights return to normal.
Patricia Downs: And his opponent... The EHWF Champion… Silver Kazama!
DING DING DING!

Steve White: Both men are putting on a great main event tonight but if I were Silver I’d want to spend as little time as possible in that cage!
Chuck Thompson: Conner wants to beat him up for his own personal gain! Conner wants Silver to fall to him so he can make a name for himself but Silver, even though he doesn’t want to expend much in this match will not back down!
Steve White: Silver has to think about DGS at Aftermath next week as well though. An Empty Arena Match will be so physically taxing, he should be in 100% condition for the title defence.

Silver starts waving his arms as the crowd gets louder and louder. Silver goes up and starts climbing the cage but Conner rushes over and grabs Silver down.
