"Chrome" by VNV Nation plays, as the ICW logo is shown.
ICW. The Pinnacle in Sports-Entertainment.
Cut to inside the ICW Arena, where Mark McPhail is standing in the ring.
Mark McPhail: Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome all to ICW's THURSDAY, INSANE THURSDAY!!!
the fans cheer, on cue.
Mark McPhail: As the head of the ICW Executive Committee, and interim General Manager here in ICW, I've got a couple of announcements to make. First off, our NEXT pay-per-view, RISE BEFORE THE FALL, will come to you from the Rose Garden, in Portland, OREGON!
The fans...boo Portland. This is Philadelphia.
Mark McPhail: Next up, rise before the fall just isn't the name of a pay per view, or a EWA PPV, or just a clever title. It will factor into our matches. More will be announced soon, all I can say is that RISE BEFORE THE FALL WILL TRULY BE THAT, A RISE BEFORE THE FALL. Also, the ICW World Heavyweight Championship WILL be defended, in a-
"Apocalypse Please" hits, as The Most Dangerous Faction in Wrestling Today, Dave Dangerously, Myst, and Lone Wolf all come out to the stage.
Dave Dangerously: Hold up there, Mr. Marcus. The ICW World Heavyweight Championship? It belongs to us. The MDF. WE'RE IN THE MAIN EVENT.
Mark McPhail: Well, Lone Wolf has a shot at the ICW Title tonight in the championship scramble match.
Dave Dangerously: Oh. I guess I didn't read the card. Wolf, good luck tonight.
Mark McPhail: You and Myst had better be more worried about those tag team titles around your waist. You've got to defend them, TONIGHT! AND THAT MATCH IS NEXT!!!!
Dave Dangerously: WHAT???
McPhail leaves the ring, and heads up the ramp, as the MDF talks it out. Dangerously and Myst make their way to the ring, Wolf goes to the backstage.
Joey Styles: HELLO EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO ICW'S THURSDAY, INSANE THURSDAY! I'M YOUR HOST JOEY STYLES AND I'M JOINED HERE BY THE HOST OF ICW MONDAY NIGHT MAYHEM, GOOD OL' JR, JIM ROSS!
Jim Ross: Thanks Joey, wrestling fans TONIGHT, all three ICW titles ON the line starting here with the World Tag Team Championship, it should be a SCINTILLATING NIGHT OF THURSDAY MAYHEM!
"Shipping up to Boston" hits, and out comes ScottiePP7 and Johnny Hook, accompanied by Ms. Clee Tarus. The fans give a mixed reaction.
JR: The champs in the ring, and here comes The Conglomerate, former ICW World Champ ScottiePP7 and his associate, Johnny Hook. These two men are looking to get back into the swing of things, after the PP7 world title loss to Dan Hampton at Ultimatum.
JS: Don't forget about the secret meetings between PP7 and Hampton, JR. And their colusion last week in that battle royal! Dan Hampton IS scheduled to be here tonight!!!
Hook and PP7 stand in the ring and taunt the champs.
Fear Factory's "Cyberwaste" hits, and out comes Damaged Ink- Juggernaut and Mayhem to applause from the fans.
JS: Damaged Ink have aligned themselves with NYO Champ Sylver Morrigan, and a win here tonight would bring a LOT of gold to their ranks!
JR: The ever-lovin' Juggernaut and Mayhem have won over these fans as of late, and have fiercely been in the ICW tag team title hunt ever since the titles were reinstated.
Juggs and Mayhem enter the ring, and the referee holds up the tag team titles, before calling for the bell.
JR: This is an elimination tag team match, folks! The last team remaining are your new tag team champs!
Immediately, Dangerously goes for PP7, while Hook hangs back. Damaged Ink take on Myst.
JS: Shades of the battle royal from last week! Damaged Ink recognize the threat that Myst poses!
JR: He's a former grand-slam ICW champion, Joey. Much like Dave Dangerously, Myst's held all the ICW titles! He definitely is a threat!
Myst powers off Damaged Ink, but Hook joins the fray, so it's now 3-on-1.
Dangerously whips PP7 into the corner, PP7 charges out, and falls face first on the mat. PP7 begs for mercy, LOW BLOW TO DAVE DANGEROUSLY! PP7 THROWS DAVE OUT OF THE RING!
Juggernaut whips Myst into the ropes, directly into the path of PP7. MYST PUTS THE BRAKES ON, AND DROPKICKS PP7, KNOCKING HIM OUT OF THE RING!!!!!
Myst gets up, Damaged Ink goes for a double clothesline. Myst ducks! DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE TO DAMAGED INK! They hit the mat!
JR: Myst cleaning house in there!
Hook grabs Myst and attempts a bodyslam, but Myst wiggles free. He pushes Hook into the turnbuckle from behind. Myst runs, BRUTAL CLOTHESLINE TO THE BACK OF HOOK!
Hook falls down, and rolls out of the ring. He slumps over on the announce table. MYST WITH THE RUNNING START,
SUICIDE DIVE ONTO HOOK, THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!!!!!!!
THE FANS GO WILD!!!!!
JS: OH MY GOD!!!!!
Myst gets up, and climbs up to the apron, and then the top rope.
JR: MYST LOOKING FOR MORE! GOOD LORD NO! THE MAN IS HURT!!!!!!
MYST FLIES OFF THE TOP ROPE, THE DRAGON'S BREATH ONTO HOOK, WHO IS IN THE WRECKAGE OF THE TABLE!!!!!
Myst gets up slowly, and is beaten on by Damaged Ink, who have joined the situation.
Scottie is in the ring, and he looks shocked at the destruction of Hook.
JS: HOOK IS OUT! WE HAVE EMTS OUT HERE!!!!!
JR: Scottie realizing he may have to go it alone, here!!!!
Dangerously enters the ring, and starts to duke it out with PP7. PP7 kicks Dangerously in the groin, before setting him up for the Martini DDT.
Suddenly, DAN HAMPTON rushes out from the back!!!
JR: HERE HE IS, DAN HAMPTON IS HERE TO HELP OUT SCOTTIEPP7!!!!
Hampton runs down, carrying a steel chair. Scottie smiles, as he motions for Hampton to watch on as he DDT's Dangerously. Hampton enters the ring, and SWINGS THE CHAIR AT PP7'S HEAD!!!!
The fans are shocked!!!
Dangerously picks up PP7 from that DDT position, AND HITS THE DEATH VALLEY DRIVER, LIVING DANGEROUSLY!!!!!! HE MAKES THE COVER!!!!!!
1...
2...
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eliminated, ScottiePP7 and Johnny Hook
Hampton exits the ring, still holding the chair. Damaged Ink enter the ring, and start to brawl with Dangerously, as he tries to fight both of them off.
JR: HOOK has been decimated, Scottie's been pin, betrayed apparently by Hampton! Now it's down to the MDF and Damaged Ink!
JS: LOOK!
Clee Tarus comes to the aid of PP7 and Hook on the outside, but MYST GRABS HER BY THE HAIR!!!!
JR: NO! NO! DAMNIT NO!
Myst picks her up, AND SLAMS HER RIGHT INTO THE FLOOR! HE APPLIES THE MILLION DOLLAR THERAPY SESSION!!!!
CLEE TARUS SCREAMS IN PAIN AS REFEREES TRY TO PULL MYST AWAY!!!!!
JS: OH MY GOD!!!!!
JR: THIS IS DISGUSTING! GET HIM OFF HER!!!!! SHE'S NOT A WRESTLER!!!!!! HE'S GOING TO BREAK HER FUCKING NECK!!!!!!
Myst is loving the torture, while in the ring, Dangerously does his best to fight off Damaged Ink. He manages to knock them both down momentarily, as he watches Myst with a smile.
Suddenly, Sylver Morrigan runs down to the ring, with a steel chair. The referee is on the outside, trying to pull Myst away.
JS: HERE COMES THE THIRD MEMBER OF DAMAGED INK!
Morrigan hits Dangerously in the back with the steel chair. Dangerously is hurt, but he turns around, and is PISSED. He starts to stalk Morrigan...
BUT HAMPTON FROM BEHIND WITH A CHAIRSHOT!!!!!! DANGEROUSLY HURT BY THAT ONE, AS HE ARCHES HIS BACK, AND TURNS BACK TOWARDS HAMPTON!!!!!
Myst still on the outside, refusing to let go of Clee Tarus
JR: HAMPTON ATTACKING DANGEROUSLY NOW!!!!!
Hampton kicks Dangerously in the gut, and HAMPTON AND MORRIGAN WITH THE CONCHAIRTO ON DANGEROUSLY, A DOUBLE CHAIR SHOT TO THE HEAD!!!!!!
Dangerously slumps down, as Hampton and Morrigan both leave the ring.
JS: WHAT THE-?
Juggernaut picks up Mayhem, and throws him on top of Dangerously, as Juggernaut rests on top of Mayhem so both men are covering Dangerously. Morrigan pulls the referee into the ring, as he sees the pinfall!
1...
2...
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eliminated, Myst and Dave Dangerously
Winners by pinfall, and NEW ICW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, Juggernaut and Mayhem!
THE FANS GO WILD!
JR: DAMAGED INK ARE THE CHAMPIONS! SOMEONE STOP MYST!
Finally, Myst is pulled off by the referees. He sees what has transpired, and storms the ring, clearing it of Damaged Ink. He checks on Dangerously, who is out cold.
Juggernaut, and Mayhem grab their tag team titles, and head up the ramp with Morrigan, and Dan Hampton, as the four of them celebrate.
JS: DAN HAMPTON HAS ALLIED HIMSELF WITH DAMAGED INK? THOSE MEETINGS WITH PP7...HE MUST HAVE BEEN PLAYING HIM ALL ALONG!
JR: THE REAL ISSUE HERE IS CLEE TAURUS, AND HOOK. BOTH OF THEM NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION!
JS: We've got new tag team champions! SCORE ONE AGAINST THE MDF!!!!!
Cut to backstage, where we see Calvin Constantine talking to Johnny Q. Public.
QPublic: Hey man...good luck out there tonight.
Calvin Constantine: Absolutely. May the best man win. You or me.
The two shake hands, and part ways.
The camera pans up to the rafters above the hallway where they were talking, where we see ICW World Heavyweight Champion Genesis watching, silently...
Again backstage, as the cameras have followed Damaged Ink.
Michael Cole: Damaged Ink! Could I get a word with you?? Congratulations on your title victory!
Juggernaut: WHOOOOOO!!!!!!! SUCK IT, PP7!
Mayhem: SUCK IT, DUDLEY!!! WHOOOOOO!
Morrigan: What they meant to say is...WE'RE...TAKING...OVER!!!!!!!
Michael Cole: Dan, why didn't you tell me you were joining up with Damaged Ink?
Dan Hampton: I got to keep some secrets, Mikey. Besides, it was only eventual. Family's got to stick together!
Hampton and Morrigan share a hug.
Michael Cole: Morrigan, the NYO champion, you two, now the tag team champions, Dan...Damaged Ink now almost has all the gold here in ICW.
Dan Hampton: And soon we WILL have them all. Because I'm going to get my ICW world title back. I'm officially announcing my candicacy for that title belt. Whomever wins tonight, I'm gunning for you!!!
Michael Cole: Again congratulations. I will see you all at the strip club, later. Back to you, JR!
JR: Damaged Ink, stronger than ever now. Joey, Clee Tarus and Hook have been taken to the hospital, we hope to update you on their condition as the show goes on. We've got new tag team champions!
JS: That's right JR, we sure do! But up next, we've got a one-on-one contest between a ICW newcomer, and someone who hasn't been so lucky as of late...I'm talking about Fenyx Kayne. We tried to collect an interview with him earlier, but he refused.
JR: Obviously he has many demons.
JS: Speaking of DEMONS...
"Summer Breeze" by Type-O Negative hits, and Nero Wirtz makes his way out onto the ramp to mostly boos, though it looks like a few Goth weirdos are in attendance cheering him.
JR: This newcomer Nero Wirtz debuted last week, finishing as the runner up in the battle royale. Some people have questioned his actual ability to wrestle, though.
JS: Well, supposedly he's possessed, and that gives him his ability.
"Evolution" by Korn hits, and Fenyx Kayne comes out to almost no crowd response. He makes his way down to the ring, not looking particularly focused or happy to be there.
JR: You have to wonder what's going on in this young man's mind, after losing a brutal match to his former girlfriend, Sylver Morrigan, at Ultimatum.
JS: Especially after he no-showed for the battle royale last week! And here tonight, again, he looks totally lost!
Fenyx slowly makes his way into the ring, and Nero and goes right after a caught off guard Kayne, nailing him with knife edge chops! He looks for a whip, but the much bigger Kayne reverses, only to get nailed with a cross body block! Nero covers!
1…
2…
Kayne kicks out!
JR: Fenyx needs to get his head in the game, and fast!
Nero pulls Fenyx back up, and nails him with a Russian leg sweep, then hops back up and stands poised. Fenyx slowly gets back up, and Nero pops him with the Absurd Agony superkick!
JS: Forget about getting his head in the game, he just got his head taken off!
Fenyx is down in the middle of the ring, and Nero heads to the top rope! He climbs to the top, and leaps off with the Dark Delusions splash and nails it! Nero makes a cover!
1…
2…
3!
Winner, by pinfall, Nero Wirtz
The fans are...something.
JR: Wow, Nero absolutely DISMANTLED Fenyx Kayne! Maybe he can wrestle.
JS: One thing's for sure, Fenyx Kayne was NOT prepared for that match…now Nero's grabbing a mic!
Nero grabs a mic and stands in the middle of the ring.
Nero Wirtz: Greetings to the legions of wrestling fans around the Earth. I am Nero Wirtz, and I am here in ICW for one reason. To spread the message of EVIL!
Some fans are perplexed, others mostly laugh.
Nero Wirtz: DO NOT LAUGH, FEEBLE MINDED CHRIST LOVERS! YOUR GOD IS FINISHED! EVIL SHALL RISE, EVIL WILL RISE, EVIL IS RISING! You may find it funny now, but just wait! I shall tear through this company like the helldogs tear through the bodies of those offered up to Satan by your pathetic god. And when I am ICW World Champion, you will understand your folly!
Nero drops the mic and heads to the back as "Summer Breeze" hits again. The crowd continues to laugh.
JS: Uh, well…that was…interesting.
Cut to backstage, where Sylver Morrigan is getting ready for her match, alongside Dan Hampton, and Damaged Ink.
Juggernaut: C'mon, Morrigan! Bring the gold back to the locker room.
Sylver Morrigan: I totally plan on it. I'm the longest running NYO Champion in ICW history, as of tonight. I plan to bring back the Chaos title to our locker room EVERY night, for a LONG time.
The newly formed quartet of Damaged Ink all cheer.
Suddenly, from down the corridor, Dave Dangerously runs in and SINGAPORE CANES SYLVER MORRIGAN IN THE BACK OF THE KNEE! Dangerously runs off, as Juggernaut and Mayhem chase after him.
Dan Hampton: You okay?
Hampton helps up Morrigan, who is holding her knee, and acting groggily.
Sylver Morrigan: Yeah. That fucking asshole.
Dan Hampton: You want us to go to the ring with you?
Sylver Morrigan: No. No, I'll be fine. I have to prove myself here. I'll be fine, don't worry.
Morrigan grabs the NYO title, and starts to walk down the corridor.
JR: That match...is NEXT!
Commercial break:
google combat arms
Back to live TV
The huge drum fill of "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin hits, as Judah "The Lion" Walton appears at the top of the ramp, arms raised. The crowd gives the newcomer a mixed reaction, but mostly cheers as he heads toward the ring.
JR: Judah made his debut last week on Thursday, Insane Thursday, and an impressive debut it was. He defeated 14 others to win a shot at the NYO Title here tonight!
JS: Impressive it was, JR, but there's a big question mark about him coming into this week-can he bring himself to fight against a woman? He's already said that he could have a problem with it!
JR: Well, I guess we're about to find out!
The arena fills with purple light as "Sick of Life" hits, announcing the arrival of the Chaos Champion, Sylver Morrigan! The crowd mostly cheers as she makes her way to the ring, title slung over her shoulder.
JS: It's been an interesting few weeks for Morrigan, to say the least.
JR: Right you are, Joey. First, Morrigan broke away from Lone Wolf and the Hardcore Regime…
JS: Then linked up with The new Tag Team Champions, Damaged Ink and defended her Chaos Title in a classic strap ladder match with former lover Fenyx Kayne...
JR: And last week we saw Seductress make her debut, and make a brutal, premeditated attack on Morrigan with a cat o'nine tails. And JUST NOW, Dave Dangerously attacked her, after she and the new ally of Damaged Ink, Dan Hampton, helped Dave Dangerously and Myst to lose their tag team titles to Juggernaut and Mayhem.
JS: Needless to say, there's quite a few people with a rooting interest in this match, one way or the other.
Morrigan hands her title to the timekeeper before entering the ring, where Judah patiently waits in his corner.
JR: We've got an interesting mash up of styles here-Judah's got the size advantage, and we understand he has an extensive mixed martial arts background. However, Morrigan is quicker and can perform high risk maneuvers with the best of them!
The bell sounds, and the two competitors circle each other in the ring, before Morrigan quickly moves in and nails Judah with a clothesline!
JS: If Judah can't bring himself to hit a woman, he's going to be in big trouble here, because Morrigan isn't to be taken lightly!
Judah quickly answers that question-he's knocked down by the clothesline but sweeps Morrigan's legs out from under. Both hop back to their feet, and Judah hits Morrigan with a quick kick to the back of the right knee, then another, causing Morrigan to pull it back in pain. Judah stays on the offensive, whipping Morrigan to the near side, and taking out her knees with a low bridge on the way back, sending Morrigan sprawling!
JR: Well, I guess Judah's gotten over his issues with women.
Morrigan struggles to her feet on the far side of the ring along the ropes, while Judah quickly moves in, trying to press his advantage. When Morrigan is vertical, he wrenches her right knee with a dragon screw leg whip, sending Morrigan to the ground again. Judah grabs Morrigan's leg and pulls it to the side before dropping an elbow to the inside of Morrigan's knee, causing Sylver to yelp in pain!
JS: Not only that JR, he's got a clear strategy-he's really working over Morrigan's knee. The Lion must have been watching when Dangerously attacked her, earlier!
JR: It's no wonder, Judah describes himself as a technician who tries to wear down one part of his opponent. He just sees the attack by Dangerously as an open opportunity.
Judah grabs Morrigan's leg again, wrenching it and looking for a figure four leglock, but Morrigan kicks out with her free leg, knocking Judah back. Morrigan hops up and charges Judah, looking for a clothesline, but Judah ducks under! He grabs Morrigan's extended arm and wrenches it into a hammerlock, then boots Morrigan in the midsection and sets her up-Jungle Bomb, hammerlock powerbomb, which he sits down into a pin!
JS: Judah calls that the Jungle Bomb, and we might have a new NYO Champion!
Judah covers Morrigan!
1…
2…
Morrigan manages to nail Judah's head with a leg scissors, breaking the cover!
JR: Wow, terrific ring awareness there by Morrigan!
Judah is undeterred and grabs a hold of the battered right leg of Morrigan, nailing her with another elbow drop to the inside of the knee, and then a second one! He grabs her right leg again, looking to inflict more damage, but Morrigan manages to sneak her free leg in behind him, and floors him with a drop toe hold!
JS: Great counter there by Sylver Morrigan-can she grab some of the momentum!
Still gingerly favoring her right knee, Morrigan hops up, as does Judah. Morrigan nails Judah with a back heel kick, staggering him into the ropes. As Judah comes stumbling back, Morrigan kicks him in the midsection and nails him with Brackish, a cradle neckbreaker.
JR: It looks like she has, Joey!
Morrigan covers Judah!
1…
2…
Judah gets a shoulder up!
JS: The NYO Title might be ICW"s second championship, but this action is first rate!
JR: You're lucky you're not working with Myst anymore, no way he'd let something that corny slide.
Morrigan tries to press her advantage, stomping away at Judah as he slowly gets to his feet. Morrigan's still favoring her right knee. Sylver whips Judah into the ropes and nails him on the way back with the Spiral tilt-a-whirl slam! Judah is down, and Morrigan heads for the top rope, ascending slowly to compensate for her sore knee.
JS: Morrigan's going for something big here!
JR: Let's see if she can pull it off with her injured knee…
Morrigan remains crouched on the top rope, waiting as Judah slowly gets to his feet in the middle of the ring. Morrigan rises up and leaps into a front flip, looking for a Bad Magick flipping hurricanrana! But Judah sidesteps it, grabbing a hold of Morrigan's leg! Morrigan hits the mat hard, and Judah wrenches her leg into the Lion's Pride grapevine knee bar!
JS: Lion's Pride! Judah's really wrenching Morrigan's knee right now!
Morrigan is really struggling against the hold, clearly writhing and yelling in pain!
JR: We saw Judah really go to work on that knee of Morrigan's earlier-if she can't hold out, we've got a new NYO Champion!
Morrigan is struggling, trying to get to the ropes, but she's stuck in the middle of the ring! Meanwhile, Judah has the hold cinched in deep! The ref is checking Morrigan as she continues to fight against the hold, but she's still telling him no!
JS: How much longer can Morrigan hold out?
Sylver is still fighting hard against the hold! Still struggling to reach a rope, she looks around and sees how far they all are. The ref is still checking, and she tries to keep holding out…
But she can't! Morrigan taps out, and the ref calls for the bell!
The winner, and NEW ICW NYO Champion, Judah "The Lion" Walton
"When the Levee Breaks" hits again as Judah celebrates his victory and his newly won title.[/i]
JS: Judah Walton is our new NYO Champion, just two matches into his ICW career! I wonder what he'll call the championship…
Back in the ring, Morrigan slowly gets up, grasping at her knee and looking pissed.
JR: Looking at the replays Joey, Morrigan just didn't get the elevation she needed to when she went for Bad Magick…all that work Judah did on her knees really paid off!
JS: Judah had a plan in the ring, and he's the new NYO Champion because of it!
Backstage, Dan Hampton is looking for Juggernaut and Mayhem, who have chased after Dave Dangerously.
Dan Hampton: Man. Our first night as a team and they're already lost. What the hell.
SUDDENLY, FROM BEHIND, DAVE DANGEROUSLY CRUSHES HAMPTON WITH A GARBAGE CAN!!!
Hampton is down, as the camera pans over to show MYST KICKING THE SHIT OUT OF DAMAGED INK!!!
Wolf is on the scene now, as he HITS HAMPTON IN THE GUT WITH THE BASEBALL BAT!!!!!!
JR: GOOD LAWD!!!!!
Wolf grabs his bat, and heads off, as Dangerously pats him on the back, on the way out.
Dave Dangerously: Myst, we're done here man. Let's blow this popstand, and watch Wolf win us the ICW title!
Dangerously turns, Myst is not there, just the fallen Damaged Ink.
Dave Dangerously: Myst?
Back inside the arena, "Battery" hits, and out comes Lone Wolf to a chorus of boos.
JR: Folks, it's time for our MAIN EVENT! THE ICW TITLE CHAMPIONSHIP SCRAMBLE!
JS: 20 minutes, Five competitors, two to start, one enters every five minutes at a random draw. With each pinfall or submission, that man becomes the interim champion. The man who has had the last win, within the 20 minutes, will be the ICW Champion!
JR: The champion, Genesis, has a 80% chance of losing here!
JS: Looks like Wolf is going to start it off!
Wolf enters the ring, and leaves the baseball bat on the announcer's table, newly rebuilt.
JR: Wolf, now a part of the MDF, deadlier than ever.
JS: Especially with that bat, JR. Look at the blood stains on it!
"Kingdom" by VNV Nation plays, and out comes The King of ICW, The World Heavyweight Champion, Genesis to a huge ovation from the fans!
Genesis hits the ring, and throws the ICW title down, and immediately gets into it with Lone Wolf!
JR: THE FANS LOVE HIM!
JS: I don't know, JR. Something about the guy...
Genesis whips LW into the ropes, Wolf REVERSES!

Kickout, by Lone Wolf.
JS: What an enziguri!
JR: Genesis trained in the martial arts, a high flying aerial competitor. We don't know much about his wrestling history.
JS: Or his personal history, for that matter. I was able to find out that he spent 2 years wrestling in New Japan Pro Wrestling, however.
JR: And he trained with the legendary Yuji Nagata!
JS: That's right, JR. He formed a stable with Kensuke Sasake and Keiji Mutoh, for a time. He also competed in the New Japan Cup!
JR: What a bunch of useless made up knowledge.
WOLF WITH THE THUMB TO THE EYE OF GENESIS! FOLLOWED UP BY THE CANINE!!!

Suddenly, Helter Skelter comes down the aisle, and jumps up on the apron, distracting the referee.
JR: Come on!
While the referee is distracted, from the other side of the ring, through the crowd, SEDUCTRESS hops over the guard rail, and grabs the baseball bat off the announce table!
JS: WHAT THE-
Seductress slides it into the ring! Wolf picks up Genesis, JUGULAR CRUSH PEDIGREE ON THE BASEBALL BAT!!!!
Helter Skelter jumps off the apron, the referee turns around, WOLF MAKES THE COVER!

KICKOUT, BY GENESIS!
JS: QPublic looking for a measure of revenge, looking for that EXTRA win over Genesis he did not get at Ultimatum, nor the week after. Wolf cost QPublic the title match last week, and was detrimental in QPublic's loss at Ultimatum too.
JR: Don't rule out Genesis either, though. He won both of those matches, due to his own skill, as well.
Genesis to his feet now, as QPublic starts to punch away on the King. QPublic with lefts and rights, as QPublic switches to a boxing stance! He goes for a BIG RIGHT CROSS, but Genesis ducks, QPublic spins around just as WOLF IS BACK TO HIS FEET, THE POUNCE, THIS TIME IT CONNECTS!

JS: Referees throwing out Wolf and QPublic here, it looks like!!!!
JR: With TWO MINUTES TO GO, THE CHAMPION IS IN THE DRIVERS SEAT!
Suddenly, from down the aisle, it's Myst! He walks down to the ringside area, and right into LB. LB shoves Myst out of his way, and goes to re-enter the ring, but LB is caught up by Myst, DARKNESS FROM WITHIN T-BONE SUPLEX ON THE RING FLOOR!
Myst stands at the ring apron area.
JR: GOOD LAWD, Myst just tossed LB like a rag doll!
JS: Why is Myst out here?
Constantine whips Genesis into the ropes, BIG SPINEBUSTER! HE FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH THE SHARPSHOOTER, THE PAGAN LAMENT!!!!!
GENESIS WRITHING IN PAIN!!!
JR: A LITTLE OVER A MINUTE TO GO HERE, AND WILL GENESIS TAP OUT, OR CAN HE HOLD ON???
Genesis manages to break the hold, but Constantine still in control.
Constantine sizes up Genesis....GENESIS GOES FOR THE ARCLIGHT, BUT MISSES, CALVIN HITS THE 180 DDT!!!!
JS: THERE IT IS!!
JR: CONSTANTINE COULD SCORE A WIN HERE IN THE CLOSING MINUTE!
Constantine doesn't go for the pin, opts for Genesis to get up...and hits EMPIRE'S FALL! CONSTANTINE GOES FOR THE COVER!!!!

KICKOUT, BY GENESIS!!!!!!!!
JS: No dice for Constantine, after the hurricanrana!
JR: GENESIS WON'T STAY DOWN, WITH THIRTY SECONDS TO GO!
Genesis laying on the mat. Calvin stomps him a few times, before going to the top rope. THE FANS ARE CHEERING HIS NAME, CONSTANTINE FLIES OFF WITH THE IMPERIAL SPLIT LEG DROP...
IT CONNECTS!!!!!!!!!!
JR: OH WHAT A MOVE!!!!
JS: OHMYGODCOVER HIM, COVER HIM!!!!!
Constantine, taking a brutal landing on his legs and tailbone, is slow to make the cover. He crawls over to a position.
BUT MYST ENTERS THE RING!!!!!!
JR: WE'RE DOWN TO TEN SECONDS!!!!!!
Calvin drapes an arm over Genesis.
1...
2....
MYST PULLS CALVIN OFF OF GENESIS!!!!!!!
JR: WHAT THE HELL, WHAT THE HELL?
The referee calls for the bell.
JS: WAIT...WAIT!!!! DID MYST INTERFERE? WAS THAT A DISQUALIFICATION?
Myst looks down at Constantine.
Gary Michael Cappeta: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE WINNER OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP SCRAMBLE MATCH...
DUE TO....
TIME RUNNING OUT, AND STILL ICW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, GENESIS!
Myst picks up Calvin...DRAGON SUPLEX, THE DRAGON'S CALL! HE ROLLS HIM OVER INTO THE ANGRY SUBMISSION!!!!!
JS: MYST COST CONSTANTINE THE TITLE! HE COULD HAVE WON IT WITH THE BIG LEGDROP!
Myst cranks on the Angry submission, and then releases it. The referee hands Genesis the ICW title, as Genesis gets to his feet. MYST GRABS THE ICW TITLE AWAY FROM GENESIS, AND HITS HIM IN THE FACE!!!!
JR: GOOD LORD! THAT TOOK HIS HEAD OFF!!!!!
Myst stands over Constantine and Genesis, and holds the ICW title over his head.
JR: GENESIS STILL THE CHAMPION! CONSTANTINE SCREWED! MYST TRIUMPHANT! WHAT WILL BE IN STORE NEXT?
JS: THIS IS WACKYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
End transmission
ICW. The Pinnacle in Sports-Entertainment.
Cut to inside the ICW Arena, where Mark McPhail is standing in the ring.
Mark McPhail: Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome all to ICW's THURSDAY, INSANE THURSDAY!!!
the fans cheer, on cue.
Mark McPhail: As the head of the ICW Executive Committee, and interim General Manager here in ICW, I've got a couple of announcements to make. First off, our NEXT pay-per-view, RISE BEFORE THE FALL, will come to you from the Rose Garden, in Portland, OREGON!
The fans...boo Portland. This is Philadelphia.
Mark McPhail: Next up, rise before the fall just isn't the name of a pay per view, or a EWA PPV, or just a clever title. It will factor into our matches. More will be announced soon, all I can say is that RISE BEFORE THE FALL WILL TRULY BE THAT, A RISE BEFORE THE FALL. Also, the ICW World Heavyweight Championship WILL be defended, in a-
"Apocalypse Please" hits, as The Most Dangerous Faction in Wrestling Today, Dave Dangerously, Myst, and Lone Wolf all come out to the stage.
Dave Dangerously: Hold up there, Mr. Marcus. The ICW World Heavyweight Championship? It belongs to us. The MDF. WE'RE IN THE MAIN EVENT.
Mark McPhail: Well, Lone Wolf has a shot at the ICW Title tonight in the championship scramble match.
Dave Dangerously: Oh. I guess I didn't read the card. Wolf, good luck tonight.
Mark McPhail: You and Myst had better be more worried about those tag team titles around your waist. You've got to defend them, TONIGHT! AND THAT MATCH IS NEXT!!!!
Dave Dangerously: WHAT???
McPhail leaves the ring, and heads up the ramp, as the MDF talks it out. Dangerously and Myst make their way to the ring, Wolf goes to the backstage.
Joey Styles: HELLO EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO ICW'S THURSDAY, INSANE THURSDAY! I'M YOUR HOST JOEY STYLES AND I'M JOINED HERE BY THE HOST OF ICW MONDAY NIGHT MAYHEM, GOOD OL' JR, JIM ROSS!
Jim Ross: Thanks Joey, wrestling fans TONIGHT, all three ICW titles ON the line starting here with the World Tag Team Championship, it should be a SCINTILLATING NIGHT OF THURSDAY MAYHEM!
"Shipping up to Boston" hits, and out comes ScottiePP7 and Johnny Hook, accompanied by Ms. Clee Tarus. The fans give a mixed reaction.
JR: The champs in the ring, and here comes The Conglomerate, former ICW World Champ ScottiePP7 and his associate, Johnny Hook. These two men are looking to get back into the swing of things, after the PP7 world title loss to Dan Hampton at Ultimatum.
JS: Don't forget about the secret meetings between PP7 and Hampton, JR. And their colusion last week in that battle royal! Dan Hampton IS scheduled to be here tonight!!!
Hook and PP7 stand in the ring and taunt the champs.
Fear Factory's "Cyberwaste" hits, and out comes Damaged Ink- Juggernaut and Mayhem to applause from the fans.
JS: Damaged Ink have aligned themselves with NYO Champ Sylver Morrigan, and a win here tonight would bring a LOT of gold to their ranks!
JR: The ever-lovin' Juggernaut and Mayhem have won over these fans as of late, and have fiercely been in the ICW tag team title hunt ever since the titles were reinstated.
Juggs and Mayhem enter the ring, and the referee holds up the tag team titles, before calling for the bell.
JR: This is an elimination tag team match, folks! The last team remaining are your new tag team champs!
Immediately, Dangerously goes for PP7, while Hook hangs back. Damaged Ink take on Myst.
JS: Shades of the battle royal from last week! Damaged Ink recognize the threat that Myst poses!
JR: He's a former grand-slam ICW champion, Joey. Much like Dave Dangerously, Myst's held all the ICW titles! He definitely is a threat!
Myst powers off Damaged Ink, but Hook joins the fray, so it's now 3-on-1.
Dangerously whips PP7 into the corner, PP7 charges out, and falls face first on the mat. PP7 begs for mercy, LOW BLOW TO DAVE DANGEROUSLY! PP7 THROWS DAVE OUT OF THE RING!
Juggernaut whips Myst into the ropes, directly into the path of PP7. MYST PUTS THE BRAKES ON, AND DROPKICKS PP7, KNOCKING HIM OUT OF THE RING!!!!!
Myst gets up, Damaged Ink goes for a double clothesline. Myst ducks! DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE TO DAMAGED INK! They hit the mat!
JR: Myst cleaning house in there!
Hook grabs Myst and attempts a bodyslam, but Myst wiggles free. He pushes Hook into the turnbuckle from behind. Myst runs, BRUTAL CLOTHESLINE TO THE BACK OF HOOK!
Hook falls down, and rolls out of the ring. He slumps over on the announce table. MYST WITH THE RUNNING START,
SUICIDE DIVE ONTO HOOK, THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!!!!!!!
THE FANS GO WILD!!!!!
JS: OH MY GOD!!!!!
Myst gets up, and climbs up to the apron, and then the top rope.
JR: MYST LOOKING FOR MORE! GOOD LORD NO! THE MAN IS HURT!!!!!!
MYST FLIES OFF THE TOP ROPE, THE DRAGON'S BREATH ONTO HOOK, WHO IS IN THE WRECKAGE OF THE TABLE!!!!!
Myst gets up slowly, and is beaten on by Damaged Ink, who have joined the situation.
Scottie is in the ring, and he looks shocked at the destruction of Hook.
JS: HOOK IS OUT! WE HAVE EMTS OUT HERE!!!!!
JR: Scottie realizing he may have to go it alone, here!!!!
Dangerously enters the ring, and starts to duke it out with PP7. PP7 kicks Dangerously in the groin, before setting him up for the Martini DDT.
Suddenly, DAN HAMPTON rushes out from the back!!!
JR: HERE HE IS, DAN HAMPTON IS HERE TO HELP OUT SCOTTIEPP7!!!!
Hampton runs down, carrying a steel chair. Scottie smiles, as he motions for Hampton to watch on as he DDT's Dangerously. Hampton enters the ring, and SWINGS THE CHAIR AT PP7'S HEAD!!!!
The fans are shocked!!!
Dangerously picks up PP7 from that DDT position, AND HITS THE DEATH VALLEY DRIVER, LIVING DANGEROUSLY!!!!!! HE MAKES THE COVER!!!!!!
1...
2...
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eliminated, ScottiePP7 and Johnny Hook
Hampton exits the ring, still holding the chair. Damaged Ink enter the ring, and start to brawl with Dangerously, as he tries to fight both of them off.
JR: HOOK has been decimated, Scottie's been pin, betrayed apparently by Hampton! Now it's down to the MDF and Damaged Ink!
JS: LOOK!
Clee Tarus comes to the aid of PP7 and Hook on the outside, but MYST GRABS HER BY THE HAIR!!!!
JR: NO! NO! DAMNIT NO!
Myst picks her up, AND SLAMS HER RIGHT INTO THE FLOOR! HE APPLIES THE MILLION DOLLAR THERAPY SESSION!!!!
CLEE TARUS SCREAMS IN PAIN AS REFEREES TRY TO PULL MYST AWAY!!!!!
JS: OH MY GOD!!!!!
JR: THIS IS DISGUSTING! GET HIM OFF HER!!!!! SHE'S NOT A WRESTLER!!!!!! HE'S GOING TO BREAK HER FUCKING NECK!!!!!!
Myst is loving the torture, while in the ring, Dangerously does his best to fight off Damaged Ink. He manages to knock them both down momentarily, as he watches Myst with a smile.
Suddenly, Sylver Morrigan runs down to the ring, with a steel chair. The referee is on the outside, trying to pull Myst away.
JS: HERE COMES THE THIRD MEMBER OF DAMAGED INK!
Morrigan hits Dangerously in the back with the steel chair. Dangerously is hurt, but he turns around, and is PISSED. He starts to stalk Morrigan...
BUT HAMPTON FROM BEHIND WITH A CHAIRSHOT!!!!!! DANGEROUSLY HURT BY THAT ONE, AS HE ARCHES HIS BACK, AND TURNS BACK TOWARDS HAMPTON!!!!!
Myst still on the outside, refusing to let go of Clee Tarus
JR: HAMPTON ATTACKING DANGEROUSLY NOW!!!!!
Hampton kicks Dangerously in the gut, and HAMPTON AND MORRIGAN WITH THE CONCHAIRTO ON DANGEROUSLY, A DOUBLE CHAIR SHOT TO THE HEAD!!!!!!
Dangerously slumps down, as Hampton and Morrigan both leave the ring.
JS: WHAT THE-?
Juggernaut picks up Mayhem, and throws him on top of Dangerously, as Juggernaut rests on top of Mayhem so both men are covering Dangerously. Morrigan pulls the referee into the ring, as he sees the pinfall!
1...
2...
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eliminated, Myst and Dave Dangerously
Winners by pinfall, and NEW ICW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, Juggernaut and Mayhem!
THE FANS GO WILD!
JR: DAMAGED INK ARE THE CHAMPIONS! SOMEONE STOP MYST!
Finally, Myst is pulled off by the referees. He sees what has transpired, and storms the ring, clearing it of Damaged Ink. He checks on Dangerously, who is out cold.
Juggernaut, and Mayhem grab their tag team titles, and head up the ramp with Morrigan, and Dan Hampton, as the four of them celebrate.
JS: DAN HAMPTON HAS ALLIED HIMSELF WITH DAMAGED INK? THOSE MEETINGS WITH PP7...HE MUST HAVE BEEN PLAYING HIM ALL ALONG!
JR: THE REAL ISSUE HERE IS CLEE TAURUS, AND HOOK. BOTH OF THEM NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION!
JS: We've got new tag team champions! SCORE ONE AGAINST THE MDF!!!!!
Cut to backstage, where we see Calvin Constantine talking to Johnny Q. Public.
QPublic: Hey man...good luck out there tonight.
Calvin Constantine: Absolutely. May the best man win. You or me.
The two shake hands, and part ways.
The camera pans up to the rafters above the hallway where they were talking, where we see ICW World Heavyweight Champion Genesis watching, silently...
Again backstage, as the cameras have followed Damaged Ink.
Michael Cole: Damaged Ink! Could I get a word with you?? Congratulations on your title victory!
Juggernaut: WHOOOOOO!!!!!!! SUCK IT, PP7!
Mayhem: SUCK IT, DUDLEY!!! WHOOOOOO!
Morrigan: What they meant to say is...WE'RE...TAKING...OVER!!!!!!!
Michael Cole: Dan, why didn't you tell me you were joining up with Damaged Ink?
Dan Hampton: I got to keep some secrets, Mikey. Besides, it was only eventual. Family's got to stick together!
Hampton and Morrigan share a hug.
Michael Cole: Morrigan, the NYO champion, you two, now the tag team champions, Dan...Damaged Ink now almost has all the gold here in ICW.
Dan Hampton: And soon we WILL have them all. Because I'm going to get my ICW world title back. I'm officially announcing my candicacy for that title belt. Whomever wins tonight, I'm gunning for you!!!
Michael Cole: Again congratulations. I will see you all at the strip club, later. Back to you, JR!
JR: Damaged Ink, stronger than ever now. Joey, Clee Tarus and Hook have been taken to the hospital, we hope to update you on their condition as the show goes on. We've got new tag team champions!
JS: That's right JR, we sure do! But up next, we've got a one-on-one contest between a ICW newcomer, and someone who hasn't been so lucky as of late...I'm talking about Fenyx Kayne. We tried to collect an interview with him earlier, but he refused.
JR: Obviously he has many demons.
JS: Speaking of DEMONS...
"Summer Breeze" by Type-O Negative hits, and Nero Wirtz makes his way out onto the ramp to mostly boos, though it looks like a few Goth weirdos are in attendance cheering him.
JR: This newcomer Nero Wirtz debuted last week, finishing as the runner up in the battle royale. Some people have questioned his actual ability to wrestle, though.
JS: Well, supposedly he's possessed, and that gives him his ability.
"Evolution" by Korn hits, and Fenyx Kayne comes out to almost no crowd response. He makes his way down to the ring, not looking particularly focused or happy to be there.
JR: You have to wonder what's going on in this young man's mind, after losing a brutal match to his former girlfriend, Sylver Morrigan, at Ultimatum.
JS: Especially after he no-showed for the battle royale last week! And here tonight, again, he looks totally lost!
Fenyx slowly makes his way into the ring, and Nero and goes right after a caught off guard Kayne, nailing him with knife edge chops! He looks for a whip, but the much bigger Kayne reverses, only to get nailed with a cross body block! Nero covers!
1…
2…
Kayne kicks out!
JR: Fenyx needs to get his head in the game, and fast!
Nero pulls Fenyx back up, and nails him with a Russian leg sweep, then hops back up and stands poised. Fenyx slowly gets back up, and Nero pops him with the Absurd Agony superkick!
JS: Forget about getting his head in the game, he just got his head taken off!
Fenyx is down in the middle of the ring, and Nero heads to the top rope! He climbs to the top, and leaps off with the Dark Delusions splash and nails it! Nero makes a cover!
1…
2…
3!
Winner, by pinfall, Nero Wirtz
The fans are...something.
JR: Wow, Nero absolutely DISMANTLED Fenyx Kayne! Maybe he can wrestle.
JS: One thing's for sure, Fenyx Kayne was NOT prepared for that match…now Nero's grabbing a mic!
Nero grabs a mic and stands in the middle of the ring.
Nero Wirtz: Greetings to the legions of wrestling fans around the Earth. I am Nero Wirtz, and I am here in ICW for one reason. To spread the message of EVIL!
Some fans are perplexed, others mostly laugh.
Nero Wirtz: DO NOT LAUGH, FEEBLE MINDED CHRIST LOVERS! YOUR GOD IS FINISHED! EVIL SHALL RISE, EVIL WILL RISE, EVIL IS RISING! You may find it funny now, but just wait! I shall tear through this company like the helldogs tear through the bodies of those offered up to Satan by your pathetic god. And when I am ICW World Champion, you will understand your folly!
Nero drops the mic and heads to the back as "Summer Breeze" hits again. The crowd continues to laugh.
JS: Uh, well…that was…interesting.
Cut to backstage, where Sylver Morrigan is getting ready for her match, alongside Dan Hampton, and Damaged Ink.
Juggernaut: C'mon, Morrigan! Bring the gold back to the locker room.
Sylver Morrigan: I totally plan on it. I'm the longest running NYO Champion in ICW history, as of tonight. I plan to bring back the Chaos title to our locker room EVERY night, for a LONG time.
The newly formed quartet of Damaged Ink all cheer.
Suddenly, from down the corridor, Dave Dangerously runs in and SINGAPORE CANES SYLVER MORRIGAN IN THE BACK OF THE KNEE! Dangerously runs off, as Juggernaut and Mayhem chase after him.
Dan Hampton: You okay?
Hampton helps up Morrigan, who is holding her knee, and acting groggily.
Sylver Morrigan: Yeah. That fucking asshole.
Dan Hampton: You want us to go to the ring with you?
Sylver Morrigan: No. No, I'll be fine. I have to prove myself here. I'll be fine, don't worry.
Morrigan grabs the NYO title, and starts to walk down the corridor.
JR: That match...is NEXT!
Commercial break:
google combat arms
Back to live TV
The huge drum fill of "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin hits, as Judah "The Lion" Walton appears at the top of the ramp, arms raised. The crowd gives the newcomer a mixed reaction, but mostly cheers as he heads toward the ring.
JR: Judah made his debut last week on Thursday, Insane Thursday, and an impressive debut it was. He defeated 14 others to win a shot at the NYO Title here tonight!
JS: Impressive it was, JR, but there's a big question mark about him coming into this week-can he bring himself to fight against a woman? He's already said that he could have a problem with it!
JR: Well, I guess we're about to find out!
The arena fills with purple light as "Sick of Life" hits, announcing the arrival of the Chaos Champion, Sylver Morrigan! The crowd mostly cheers as she makes her way to the ring, title slung over her shoulder.
JS: It's been an interesting few weeks for Morrigan, to say the least.
JR: Right you are, Joey. First, Morrigan broke away from Lone Wolf and the Hardcore Regime…
JS: Then linked up with The new Tag Team Champions, Damaged Ink and defended her Chaos Title in a classic strap ladder match with former lover Fenyx Kayne...
JR: And last week we saw Seductress make her debut, and make a brutal, premeditated attack on Morrigan with a cat o'nine tails. And JUST NOW, Dave Dangerously attacked her, after she and the new ally of Damaged Ink, Dan Hampton, helped Dave Dangerously and Myst to lose their tag team titles to Juggernaut and Mayhem.
JS: Needless to say, there's quite a few people with a rooting interest in this match, one way or the other.
Morrigan hands her title to the timekeeper before entering the ring, where Judah patiently waits in his corner.
JR: We've got an interesting mash up of styles here-Judah's got the size advantage, and we understand he has an extensive mixed martial arts background. However, Morrigan is quicker and can perform high risk maneuvers with the best of them!
The bell sounds, and the two competitors circle each other in the ring, before Morrigan quickly moves in and nails Judah with a clothesline!
JS: If Judah can't bring himself to hit a woman, he's going to be in big trouble here, because Morrigan isn't to be taken lightly!
Judah quickly answers that question-he's knocked down by the clothesline but sweeps Morrigan's legs out from under. Both hop back to their feet, and Judah hits Morrigan with a quick kick to the back of the right knee, then another, causing Morrigan to pull it back in pain. Judah stays on the offensive, whipping Morrigan to the near side, and taking out her knees with a low bridge on the way back, sending Morrigan sprawling!
JR: Well, I guess Judah's gotten over his issues with women.
Morrigan struggles to her feet on the far side of the ring along the ropes, while Judah quickly moves in, trying to press his advantage. When Morrigan is vertical, he wrenches her right knee with a dragon screw leg whip, sending Morrigan to the ground again. Judah grabs Morrigan's leg and pulls it to the side before dropping an elbow to the inside of Morrigan's knee, causing Sylver to yelp in pain!
JS: Not only that JR, he's got a clear strategy-he's really working over Morrigan's knee. The Lion must have been watching when Dangerously attacked her, earlier!
JR: It's no wonder, Judah describes himself as a technician who tries to wear down one part of his opponent. He just sees the attack by Dangerously as an open opportunity.
Judah grabs Morrigan's leg again, wrenching it and looking for a figure four leglock, but Morrigan kicks out with her free leg, knocking Judah back. Morrigan hops up and charges Judah, looking for a clothesline, but Judah ducks under! He grabs Morrigan's extended arm and wrenches it into a hammerlock, then boots Morrigan in the midsection and sets her up-Jungle Bomb, hammerlock powerbomb, which he sits down into a pin!
JS: Judah calls that the Jungle Bomb, and we might have a new NYO Champion!
Judah covers Morrigan!
1…
2…
Morrigan manages to nail Judah's head with a leg scissors, breaking the cover!
JR: Wow, terrific ring awareness there by Morrigan!
Judah is undeterred and grabs a hold of the battered right leg of Morrigan, nailing her with another elbow drop to the inside of the knee, and then a second one! He grabs her right leg again, looking to inflict more damage, but Morrigan manages to sneak her free leg in behind him, and floors him with a drop toe hold!
JS: Great counter there by Sylver Morrigan-can she grab some of the momentum!
Still gingerly favoring her right knee, Morrigan hops up, as does Judah. Morrigan nails Judah with a back heel kick, staggering him into the ropes. As Judah comes stumbling back, Morrigan kicks him in the midsection and nails him with Brackish, a cradle neckbreaker.
JR: It looks like she has, Joey!
Morrigan covers Judah!
1…
2…
Judah gets a shoulder up!
JS: The NYO Title might be ICW"s second championship, but this action is first rate!
JR: You're lucky you're not working with Myst anymore, no way he'd let something that corny slide.
Morrigan tries to press her advantage, stomping away at Judah as he slowly gets to his feet. Morrigan's still favoring her right knee. Sylver whips Judah into the ropes and nails him on the way back with the Spiral tilt-a-whirl slam! Judah is down, and Morrigan heads for the top rope, ascending slowly to compensate for her sore knee.
JS: Morrigan's going for something big here!
JR: Let's see if she can pull it off with her injured knee…
Morrigan remains crouched on the top rope, waiting as Judah slowly gets to his feet in the middle of the ring. Morrigan rises up and leaps into a front flip, looking for a Bad Magick flipping hurricanrana! But Judah sidesteps it, grabbing a hold of Morrigan's leg! Morrigan hits the mat hard, and Judah wrenches her leg into the Lion's Pride grapevine knee bar!
JS: Lion's Pride! Judah's really wrenching Morrigan's knee right now!
Morrigan is really struggling against the hold, clearly writhing and yelling in pain!
JR: We saw Judah really go to work on that knee of Morrigan's earlier-if she can't hold out, we've got a new NYO Champion!
Morrigan is struggling, trying to get to the ropes, but she's stuck in the middle of the ring! Meanwhile, Judah has the hold cinched in deep! The ref is checking Morrigan as she continues to fight against the hold, but she's still telling him no!
JS: How much longer can Morrigan hold out?
Sylver is still fighting hard against the hold! Still struggling to reach a rope, she looks around and sees how far they all are. The ref is still checking, and she tries to keep holding out…
But she can't! Morrigan taps out, and the ref calls for the bell!
The winner, and NEW ICW NYO Champion, Judah "The Lion" Walton
"When the Levee Breaks" hits again as Judah celebrates his victory and his newly won title.[/i]
JS: Judah Walton is our new NYO Champion, just two matches into his ICW career! I wonder what he'll call the championship…
Back in the ring, Morrigan slowly gets up, grasping at her knee and looking pissed.
JR: Looking at the replays Joey, Morrigan just didn't get the elevation she needed to when she went for Bad Magick…all that work Judah did on her knees really paid off!
JS: Judah had a plan in the ring, and he's the new NYO Champion because of it!
Backstage, Dan Hampton is looking for Juggernaut and Mayhem, who have chased after Dave Dangerously.
Dan Hampton: Man. Our first night as a team and they're already lost. What the hell.
SUDDENLY, FROM BEHIND, DAVE DANGEROUSLY CRUSHES HAMPTON WITH A GARBAGE CAN!!!
Hampton is down, as the camera pans over to show MYST KICKING THE SHIT OUT OF DAMAGED INK!!!
Wolf is on the scene now, as he HITS HAMPTON IN THE GUT WITH THE BASEBALL BAT!!!!!!
JR: GOOD LAWD!!!!!
Wolf grabs his bat, and heads off, as Dangerously pats him on the back, on the way out.
Dave Dangerously: Myst, we're done here man. Let's blow this popstand, and watch Wolf win us the ICW title!
Dangerously turns, Myst is not there, just the fallen Damaged Ink.
Dave Dangerously: Myst?
Back inside the arena, "Battery" hits, and out comes Lone Wolf to a chorus of boos.
JR: Folks, it's time for our MAIN EVENT! THE ICW TITLE CHAMPIONSHIP SCRAMBLE!
JS: 20 minutes, Five competitors, two to start, one enters every five minutes at a random draw. With each pinfall or submission, that man becomes the interim champion. The man who has had the last win, within the 20 minutes, will be the ICW Champion!
JR: The champion, Genesis, has a 80% chance of losing here!
JS: Looks like Wolf is going to start it off!
Wolf enters the ring, and leaves the baseball bat on the announcer's table, newly rebuilt.
JR: Wolf, now a part of the MDF, deadlier than ever.
JS: Especially with that bat, JR. Look at the blood stains on it!
"Kingdom" by VNV Nation plays, and out comes The King of ICW, The World Heavyweight Champion, Genesis to a huge ovation from the fans!
Genesis hits the ring, and throws the ICW title down, and immediately gets into it with Lone Wolf!
JR: THE FANS LOVE HIM!
JS: I don't know, JR. Something about the guy...
Genesis whips LW into the ropes, Wolf REVERSES!
Genesis into the ropes now, Wolf goes for a clothesline. GENESIS DUCKS! WOLF TURNS AROUND, GENESIS HITS THE FLYING ENZIGURI, INTERCEPTOR!!! HE MAKES THE COVER ON WOLF!!!

Kickout, by Lone Wolf.
JS: What an enziguri!
JR: Genesis trained in the martial arts, a high flying aerial competitor. We don't know much about his wrestling history.
JS: Or his personal history, for that matter. I was able to find out that he spent 2 years wrestling in New Japan Pro Wrestling, however.
JR: And he trained with the legendary Yuji Nagata!
JS: That's right, JR. He formed a stable with Kensuke Sasake and Keiji Mutoh, for a time. He also competed in the New Japan Cup!
JR: What a bunch of useless made up knowledge.
WOLF WITH THE THUMB TO THE EYE OF GENESIS! FOLLOWED UP BY THE CANINE!!!
Genesis down, WOLF MAKES THE COVER!

KICKOUT, by GENESIS!
JR: Two minutes to go, until another competitor enters the fray!
Suddenly, Helter Skelter comes down the aisle, and jumps up on the apron, distracting the referee.
JR: Come on!
While the referee is distracted, from the other side of the ring, through the crowd, SEDUCTRESS hops over the guard rail, and grabs the baseball bat off the announce table!
JS: WHAT THE-
Seductress slides it into the ring! Wolf picks up Genesis, JUGULAR CRUSH PEDIGREE ON THE BASEBALL BAT!!!!
Helter Skelter jumps off the apron, the referee turns around, WOLF MAKES THE COVER!

QPublic looks at Genesis, still rolling around, and MAKES A COVER!
1...
2...
KICKOUT, BY GENESIS!
JS: QPublic looking for a measure of revenge, looking for that EXTRA win over Genesis he did not get at Ultimatum, nor the week after. Wolf cost QPublic the title match last week, and was detrimental in QPublic's loss at Ultimatum too.
JR: Don't rule out Genesis either, though. He won both of those matches, due to his own skill, as well.
Genesis to his feet now, as QPublic starts to punch away on the King. QPublic with lefts and rights, as QPublic switches to a boxing stance! He goes for a BIG RIGHT CROSS, but Genesis ducks, QPublic spins around just as WOLF IS BACK TO HIS FEET, THE POUNCE, THIS TIME IT CONNECTS!
