The camera cuts to the backstage area, in the locker room of none other than the AWA Universal champion, of course I am talking about the Monster Chaos, the crowd boo's like mad at the Axiom leader as the man himself speaks out

Chaos: Well tonight I enjoy a well earned night off, for months I have been running rampant over the entire asylum without a day off and finally after yet another successful defence of my title I earned this night off! I had a hell of a battle with my brother that turned bloody at the Pay Per View but in the end once AGAIN I guaranteed victory which I then followed up on, I am STILL your champion so get used to this sight... Toddi gave me a hell of a fight but in the end it was my night, now we put our efforts from against one another to against the liars of the AWA!!

Chaos:You see just because Axiom's leader is off for the evening does not mean its message takes a night off, the rest of my stable mates are here, raring to go, ready to show what they do best, we are the best in the business today, we showed that at the Pay Per View last Sunday when we walked out with two of the three belts, just face it folks we are here to stay...

Chaos lets the boos settle down as he grins, breathing in deeply before speaking out once more

Chaos: Soon enough our message will be sent out to even more of the AWA's filth that plague the locker room, tonight we take care of a few more of the liars that run rampant around this company, we have taken care of “True Power” who are looking weaker by the day, we have taken care of guys like Jonathan Porter and Hank Henry, we continue to stand up in the face of people like you!

The heat in the building for Chaos is through the roof at his comments to the crowd, he re-adjusts the Universal belt over his right shoulder before speaking out once more

Chaos: Tonight we continue our winning ways, my boys will go out there and show the world what we are about then we move on to next week where even more plans are in place to show that we are far from finished around here.... if anything we are just getting started.... my few brothers and sisters in the audience who follow and believe in our cause, your faith has been rewarded by sticking with us, we continue to prevail and while the rest of the world hates people like us, honest people... but we are changing that one week at a time, people can't resist it any more and I guarantee at the next Pay Per View our cause will continue to grow!

Chaos: Until then, I will all leave you to enjoy the rest of the show, I will leave my stable mates do the rest, tonight they enforce what the Axiom is all about and THAT is the honest truth of it..... after all the truth will set you free!

Chaos grins before heading out of his dressing room and begins walking down the hallway as the camera cuts back to ringside

Sin vs. Chris Shipman

Stormy: Ladies and gentleman, tonight’s first match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first currently from the Georgia backwoods, weighing in at two-hundred and thirty-five pounds. He is the Reverend…CHRIS SHIPMAN!!!!

The arena lights go out except for one spotlight on the entranceway at the curtains. I huge church choir emerges and lines the alleyway. They begin to sing the opening of Who I Am by Casting Crowns. After the opening the Reverend Chris Shipman emerges holding a bible and cross high in the air and seemingly blesses the crowd on his way to the ring. He gets in the ring sets the bible and cross down in the middle of the ring. He begins praying before disrobing in his wrestling attire as the lights come back on and the choir stops singing and exits the arena.

Stormy: And next, his opponent, hailing from The Unknown. Ladies and gentleman her is SIIIIIIIIIINNNN!!!

The Lights flicker and go out completely. Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath begins to play on the PA system. Sin steps out into the spot light that shines on the entrance stage. The spotlight, itself, flickers and goes out. An instant later, the overhead lights come back on and Sin is standing in the center of the ring

Tex: This is gonna a be a great starter for the evening Duff.

Duff: Whatever Tex, let’s just get things started.

The ref calls for the bell after both of them move to their corners. Both men circle up in the center of the ring and go for a lock-up. Chris pushes Sin’s arms aside and kicks for the gut. Sin drops to his knees and then takes a boot to the back of his head.

Tex: That was a cheap shot!

Duff: I thought it was great.

Chris picks up Sin and throws him for the ropes. After a good bounce he comes flying back and ducks under a clothesline from Chris. He come back and slides through his legs tripping Shipman to the mat. Sin gets up quick and starts to lay boots into the fallen opponent. He grabs Chris up by his hair and delivers devastating ddt. He goes for the pin. One…Two..kickout by Shipman. Sin scoops him up real quick and goes for a suplex. Shipman raps his leg preventing the move. He rolls backwards and gets Sin in a small package. One…Two…kickout by Sin

Duff: He almost had him Tex.

Tex: It is gonna be a close one.

Both men get back to their feet in a hurry and start exchanging right hands. Back and forth, back and forth. Chris starts to get the upper hand and finally gets him into a bodylock. Chris continues with it and lifts him into the air. Scooping under his arms he starts to run forward.

Duff: He’s going for….

Tex: The Lord’s Touch.

At the last moment Sin starts to slide down Shipman’s back turning and locking his arm around his head as he goes down. Sin jerks back hard taking Chris off of his feet. He locks in the Final Atonement.

Duff: Where the hell did that come from?!

Tex: looks like we have a winner Duff!

Chris is trying to stretch and get his arm to the rope but Sin has it locked in too tight. A few moments later Shipman is tapping. The ref calls for the bell while Sin releases the hold and gets to his feet. The ref raises his arm as the crowd goes wild for a hell of a first match.

Stormy: And your winner by submission. SINNNNN!!!!!!

Sin makes his way out of the ring and heads for the back as the show cuts to commercial.

Winner: Sin

The Power and the Glory by Astal Doors hits the speakers as Bill Barnhart, Josh Stevens and Big Bad Casey walk out to the ring. Big Bad Casey takes the microphone and has something to say.

I have an announcement to make regarding what I told Josh Stevens last week after his disappointing performance as of late. Josh, YOU ARE FIRED FROM TRUE POWER EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here comes the newest member of True Power.

A man wearing a hood covering his face comes out and attacks Josh Stevens and throws him out of the ring with the help of Bill Barnhart and Big Bad Casey as the scene changes. ‘Truth’ by Seether hits the P.A system and Matthew Toddi walks down to the ring as the fans boo at him. He walks around the ring and takes the microphone from Stormy. He then turns and roles into the ring, holds the microphone to his face and speaks.

Toddi: You are all looking at the man who will be the new AWA International championship contender in just a few minutes. Don’t believe me, well, I put a little video together just to try and make you believe me and if you don’t still believe me, I’ll show you in a bit anyway. Roll the clip!

The man in control of the titantron puts the video. Matthew Toddi continues to talk.

Toddi: You see Despayre there, going crazy over a loss in the TV title match. Me, I just walked out the ring, felt gutted but I knew more opportunities were coming. Again, you see Despayre in that crazy state just rocking back and forth on his hotel bed staring at the teddy bear he calls Angel. Me on the other hand, I was taking walks, going on the laptop… Another reason he won’t win is standing right before you! What, you think he can win?

The crowd cheers.

Really? You think he is going to win! Really? NO, really? He puts a new term to ‘asylum seeker’. And not this kind either, take him to Arkham with the Joker and the Riddler, I think they would get on very well! Before my match begins I would like to show you another short clip.

The tinatron switches to loads of clips of himself holding the International title.

Toddi: Wow, look at that guy, he is destined for victory. Now he is the type of man that would be beat Despayre. He has natural good looks, a superstar look, good mic skills; he even speaks of the truth. Of course, I am talking about me and I am not being boastful but I have all of those things, just look at me and in less than two weeks time, that International title you see in the video will be around my waste and I will be a three time International champion!

The crowd boos even loader

Toddi: What, you don’t think I can beat Bill Barnhart or Morbius Tassius? Well, I may not have a good record with Bill but that was a three way contest, not one on one. And Morbius, I’ll just have to prove that I can beat him! Now, I’m going to go back up that entrance ramp, have a quick drink and then I will be ready to win the number one contendership match for the International title!

Matthew Toddi walks up the ramp as we cut to commercials.

Despayre vs. Matthew Toddi

Stormy: The following contest is scheduled for one fall where the winner will be named the new #1 Contender to the AWA International Championship!

The crowd is heard for a brief moment before Truth by Seether hits the PA system. Before Toddi walks out you hear the opening lines to the theme.

''If I gave you the truth would it keep you alive.
Though I’m closer to wrong and no further from right.
And now I’m convinced on the inside something's wrong with me.
Convinced on the inside.
There’s something wrong with ME!!''.
As the last word of the opening riff sounds, red and white fireworks come from above as Matthew Toddi walks through them. He walks down to the ring as he gets booed by the audience. Once he gets to the ring he walks up the steel steps and slowly enters the ring. He walks to a turnbuckle and climbs up it. He then holds his hands above his head as the fans boo and try to throw food and drinks at him. He then gets down and waits for his opponent to come to the ring as he’s announced.

Stormy: Introducing first, from Detroit, Michigan, weighing in at 225 pounds…Matthew Toddi!!!

The crowd continues to boo the Axiom member until his music fades out. It’s not but a few seconds before the heavy beat of Orgy's 'Opticon' begins to sound over the public address system of the arena. The fans turn their attention to the stage atop the entry ramp to await the entrance of the 'disturbed one' and their wait is rewarded. In hushed awe and scattered jeers, Despayre steps out onto the stage, holding a teddy bear by the fuzzy arm in one hand. The gothic mental case looks about in a sneer and starts to move along the entry aisle, and closer towards the ring. His movements are slow, methodical, and he avoids being touched by the many hands reaching out to him or his bear. Arriving at ringside, he slides "Angel" into the ring and rolls under the bottom rope himself. Again grabbing his 'security' bear, he crawls across the ring on all fours and deposits himself into a neutral corner, not even looking at his opponent just yet.

Stormy: And his opponent, from Vancouver, British Columbia, weighing in at 227 pounds…Despayrrrrrre…

Stormy says his name in a whisper as Despayre begins to stand up. The lights return to normal in the arena as Matthew Toddi is shown getting ready for the match, stretching in his corner. The referee assigned to this match calls for the bell and it’s rung immediately.

Toddi is ready and raring to go as he walks to the center of the ring, but Despayre hangs back a bit.

Tex: Okay, this is a #1 Contender’s match. Why is Despayre holding back and not going after Toddi?

Duff: Perhaps he’s thinking things through, unlike what you do Tex. You can’t always just race into things. Toddi did just come off of a very good match against the Universal Champion you know.

Toddi doesn’t want to wait any more and decides to run at Despayre. Despayre however ducks down and hits a European uppercut to Toddi’s jaw. Toddi staggers a bit but stays on his feet. He goes after Despayre again, this time with a baseball slide which connects. Despayre crawls away into the corner where Toddi joins him, mounting the bottom rope before delivering his two feet right to Despayre’s face. The referee then tells Toddi to bring Despayre out of the corner, which he does.

Tex: Looks like Despayre’s plan of cat and mouse failed.

Duff: Because Matthew Toddi knows what he wants. He wants a championship again and will do anything to get it, even if he doesn’t play by the rules.

Toddi drags him to the center of the ring and rolls him over, going for a pinfall.
1!
2!
Despayre kicks out and quickly rolls out to the apron. Despayre rolls out of the ring and looks up at Matthew Toddi. The crowd boos Toddi as Despayre rolls back into the ring. Toddi goes to meet Despayre with a clothesline, but this time Despayre is prepared, ducks underneath it and as Toddi rebounds off a set of ropes, Despayre grabs for Toddi’s head and plants him down to the mat with a bulldog. The crowd cheers a little bit as the Axiom member is now down. Despayre seems to be angered now as a bit of red has to come to his cheeks.

Tex: Despayre might be starting to think about turning up the heat in this one…

Duff: He might want to.

Despayre steps on Toddi’s back which causes Matthew to grunt. He then decides to pick Toddi up and deliver a snapmare while holding on to Toddi’s hair. The referee doesn’t see that Toddi’s hair is being held so Despayre lands a second snapmare than a third before the referee finally sees.

Tex: It’s about time the referee saw that!

Duff: Well, we all know our referees aren’t paid enough to see everything.

Tex sighs as Despayre stays on top of his opponent. He doesn’t give Toddi any time to even breathe before he scoops him up into the air and lands a Celtic Cross before going for a pin.
1!
2!
Toddi kicks out. However Despayre doesn’t allow him to get away. He instead brings Toddi up before hitting a quick snap DDT, planting Toddi again face first. Toddi’s eyes look a bit glazed over but still Despayre is relentless. He gives Toddi some space now and Toddi begins to get up, still with that glazed look in his eyes. Despayre sets up behind Toddi and when Toddi goes to turn, Toddi gets absolutely drilled with a well-placed martial arts kick. Toddi hangs a bit before crumpling to the mat. The crowd ohs at the kick and Despayre goes for another pin attempt.
1!
2!
Toddi kicks out again.

Tex: Wow, I thought that was it right there! He must have kicked out based on instincts alone!

Duff: Probably.

Despayre however doesn’t allow his attention span to waver. He goes to bring Toddi up to his feet but as he does, Toddi trips up Despayre. The crowd boos as Despayre goes down. Toddi goes to retain control of the match. He waits for Despayre to get up a bit before nailing him with a drop kick to the back. Despayre stumbles around a bit before he’s spun around by Toddi. Despayre falls victim to a double arm DDT. Toddi goes for another pinning attempt.
1!
2!
Despayre is just able to kick out before the 3. Toddi again waits for Despayre to get back up and when he does, Toddi runs at him, connecting with a punt to Despayre’s head. Toddi gets behind Despayre now, salivating…

Duff: It could very well be MKO time here!

Tex: Most likely.

Despayre begins to turn and Toddi goes for the MKO but Despayre is able to grab Toddi first and swats him down. Toddi gets right back up right away, but is quickly grabbed and put into a front facelock by Despayre. Despayre grabs one of Toddi’s thighs and lifts him up and over for the Lobotomy. Toddi crashes into the canvas as Despayre keeps Toddi in position for the pin.

Tex: That could be it right there. No MKO for Toddi!

The referee begins to count as Despayre holds on to the pinning attempt in desperation as Toddi is trying to use his legs to kick out of the predicament.
1!
2!
3!!!!!
Toddi is able to kick out, but a second too late as “Opticon” by Orgy begins to play. Toddi slaps the mat in frustration and just looks around. Despayre rolls out of the ring and begins to celebrate a bit. He looks back into the ring right at Toddi as Stormy makes her announcement.

Stormy: Here is your winner and number one contender to the AWA International Championship…Despayrrrre!!!

The crowd gives off a mixed reaction before Despayre turns and walks up the wrestler rampway to the backstage area. Toddi just remains in the ring shaking his head as Insomnia fades to a commercial break…

Winner: Despayre

Tex: That was an epic contest Duff!

Duff: Sure was, left both men unable to stand for the time being.

Tex: Well they are starting to get up.

Both men get to their feet and shake hands. Toddi grabs stormy’s microphone and begins to talk.

Toddi: Are you ready for the change. To turn you into a truth speaking man?

Despayre answers nervously

Despayre: Yes… I am.

Toddi: Come on down guys! And Synn, Gabriel, you don’t need to stick around for this bit.

Gabriel and Synn look at each other and talk to each other whether it is safe to do this an leave Despayre there with Axiom to be taught the truth. After a few seconds they decide to stay by ringside.

Toddi: Leave now or I will make you leave, I can’t do this with you distracting me. You might make him think differently to what he wants to say. Leave or I will get you fired and I mean it! Synn and Gabriel shout at Toddi saying they would never leave him. Out of nowhere, Tear Away by Drowning Pool hits the P.A system and the three other members of Axiom come down to the ring. They enter the ring and stand next to Toddi. Toddi hands the microphone to Chaos and he begins to speak.

Chaos: They don’t need to leave, it will be fine. Despayre, it takes a man with courage to do what you are doing now, everyone else we had to beat into speaking the truth but you, you are a man that wants to change are you not.

Despayre shrugs his shoulders

Chaos: Of course you are. Who wouldn’t want to be pure? Just remember what this consists of. You must speak of the truth always, never use any sins ever again. No more sloth for you. But the most important thing is you obey us, do what we tell you and leave those two friends of yours behind. What do you say?

Despayre: NO, I can’t!

Chaos: What! Say it again.

Despayre: I can’t betray my friends, NO!

Chaos looks at Matthew Toddi with anger for a few seconds and then floors Despayre with a clothesline knocking him down. The four men then circle him on the ground and start to punch and kick Despayre but Synn and Gabriel run into the ring, jump on Shipman and Toddi! Synn then gets up and double clotheslines Chaos and Dmitri. They then go back to Toddi and Shipman and start throwing punches after a while, Chaos and Dmitri hit them in their backs and starts punching them hard. It takes a lot to get Synn and Gabriel away but finally they do. All four men stand up and watch as Despayre, Synn and Gabriel try to stand up. Chaos tells Toddi, Dmitri and Shipman to get ready to do their finishers on them but all of a sudden Power and The Glory by Astral Doors hits the P.A system and True Power run down to the ring and attack Axiom. Casey takes on Shipman and Toddi and just runs at them and squashes them against the ropes. Bulldog and Josh Stevens run at Chaos and Dmitri with clotheslines as well. The four members of Axiom roll out of the ring and escape slowly around the ring and then up the ramp with their arms out as if they had done nothing wrong. Synn goes up against the ropes and shakes his head at them. With all six men, three from True Power and Synn, Gabriel and Despayre starring at Axiom with anger The screen fades to adverts.

The big day is upon us at last! Laz sits alone back stage. He has watched men enter the building and leave on the cameras. He nods to himself as he sees Casey enter the building. The door opens and Jade steps in.

Jade: I was wondering where you would turn up?

Laz: You know what it's like dont you? To go out here and pour your heart out for those few seconds of freedom? That rush?

Jade: I believe I know what you are talking about.

Laz: No, you don't. The only one who knows what I mean is miles away tonight.

Jade: In your last promo you ate some questionable stuff. What was it?

Laz: Raw accountant with a side of brandy. It's a delicacy in some parts of the world, you know.

Jade: Accountants?

Laz: Long pig... human flesh and meat.

Jade: Now to turn the subject away from your disgusting eating habits. How do you think you will fair against Casey?

Laz: (groaning) I don't care. I thought i made that point clear. I didnt care when I went up against Bulldog, I didn't care when I signed the contract. All I am worried about is getting in that ring and fighting. I'm not a pompous win junkie. Win, lose, break some bones... its all in fun. The only difference between what I do in the ring and what I do on a daily basis is the risk of death. Here in the ring, I know how to handle myself so I'm not going to die. Also theres the shooting factor.

Jade: Surely you don't mean that.

Laz: I damn sure do. Now, lets get out there and kick some ass.

Jade: Well, thank you for time and please do us all a favor, don't eat any more accountants.

Big Bad Casey vs. Laz

The bell rings and Stormy Canyon brings up the house microphone.

STORMY: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest at Insomnia is scheduled for one fall!

The lights go low as Laz steps out on the ramp. Prayer by Disturbed blares through the PA just when claw marks appear on the screen. It switches to video footage of Laz commanding troops and various other footage from past matches.

STORMY: Coming down the aisle, from Fort Bliss, Texas, weighing 225 pounds, Laz!

Laz walks down to the ring through the fog. Once there he jumps over the ropes and kneels in the center of the ring before moving over to one corner to await his scheduled opponent.

TEX: This is something I've been looking forward to all week. The return of Laz to the AWA!

DUFF: Yeah but against Big Bad Casey in his first match back? Who do you think Laz ticked off so fast to have this happen to him?

TEX: Hey give Laz a chance. The man has all the skills to take a man Casey's size down.

DUFF: We'll see.

Stormy continues.

STORMY: His opponent hails from Nashua, New Hampshire. Standing 7 feet one inches tall, and weighing 375 pounds, Big Bad Casey!

Music hitting the AWA speakers makes the crowd cheer, the music of Soundgarden's "Black Hole Sun". Stepping out is Big Bad Casey on the ramp with his friend John, who is dancing on ramp with his patented moves. On Big Bad Casey's other side is his lovely beautiful wife Laura. and they are walking down together holding hands as pyrotechnics go off as he walks down the ramp.

DUFF: And here he comes, the beginning of the end.

TEX: The end?

DUFF: For Laz that is.

The trio arrives at ringside and the gargantuan Casey steps up onto the ring apron. He puts a leg through the top and middle rope to enter the ring when Laz rushes over and baseball slides right into Casey's shin, taking his foot out from under him!

TEX: What did I tell you?

DUFF: Cheap shot!

The referee, "Chocolate" Chip Long, calls for the bell and we are underway!

Laz versus Big Bad Casey - Standard Rules Match

Before Casey can even right himself and fully enter the ring, Laz grabs him in a front facelock nd brings him down with a DDT! Casey rolls over onto his back and Laz makes a fast cover!

1.....
2.....Casey gets his shoulder up!

TEX: Oh that would have been close!

DUFF: Not to mention embarassing! I can't believe the referee made the count with Laz jumping him before the bell.

Casey sits up and Laz delivers a stiff kick right into the small of hsi back, followed up by a second. Laz then wraps his arm up and over Casey's head and locks in a dragon sleeper.

TEX: Look at Casey go! He really wants to end this fast.

DUFF: Ain't gonna happen.

As if silently agreeing, Casey reaches up with one hand and grabs a handful of Laz's hair and uses his free hand to deliver a clubbing back fist right into his temple, knocking him loose. Laz staggers back a step and Casey shakes off the effects of the early attack and gets up to his feet. Laz starts to deliver repeated fists to Casey's head when Casey blocks one and delivers a fist right to Laz's own head, dropping him to the mat.

DUFF: See? What did I tell you?

Casey brings Laz up to his feet and hurls him into the nearest corner. Following him in, Casey drives three straight knees into Laz's mid-section, driving the wind right out of his body. He then grabs Laz by the head with his hands and brings him out of the corner the hard way, Laz landing right on his tailbone.

DUFF: Not doing too well now, is he?

TEX: He will, just give him time.

Laz is a fighter, and he starts to get up to his feet but Casey sends him right back down to his knees with a forearm to the back. Casey Irish whips him into the ropes and catches him with a shot to the stomach, doubling him over. Casey then rebounds into the ropes and lands a Bicycle kick across the back of Laz's head and neck, dropping him. Casey rolls him to his back and makes the cover.

1.....
2.....Laz gets the shoulder up!

Casey stares at the referee who only shrugs and holds up two fingers. Casey grabs Laz and Irish whips him into the ropes a second straight time. Laz comes off and Casey goes for a roundhouse kick but Laz ducks under it. Laz runs into the far ropes and comes off with a leaping forearm shot to Casey's head that staggers the big man.

TEX: See? Laz isn't a man that can be dominated in any match so easily.

DUFF: Funny but Casey was doing a pretty good job of it a few moments ago.

Laz runs back into the ropes and comes off with a hard clothesline, staggering Casey but not bringing the much larger man off of his feet. decidely frustrated, he rakes Casey's eyes, blinding him.

DUFF: Oh sure, there's a clean tactic for you! Raking the eyes.

TEX: Who ever said Laz always fought fair?

DUFF: Hm, touche'.

Casey holds his eyes and Laz runs into the ropes to attempt a second clothesline but Casey catches him and delivers a Rock Bottom slam. He covers him and hooks the leg.

1.....
2.....
3-NO! Laz kicks out!

TEX: What are John and Laura arguing with the official for? That was a fair count.

DUFF: Obviously they disagree.

As does Casey himself as he stands up and menaces the diminutive official, backing him into a corner. He turns around and takes his frustration out on Laz by clubbing his back four times with forearm shots, then scoops him up and deposits him with an authorative body slam.

DUFF: Woo, I think ol' Chocolate Chip upset Casey.

Casey stands over Laz and jumps up, intending a legdrop to crush Laz but Laz rolls out of the way and Casey's leg and backside eat canvas! The crowd begins to cheer, rallying behind Laz.

TEX: There we go!

Casey grabs his leg and starts to roll over when an ever alert Laz grabs the hurt leg and wraps Casey up quickly with an STF submission hold!

DUFF: STF! He has an STF on the big man!

TEX: We could have a submission here for Laz!

Laura and John are pounding the apron on the outside, cheering for Casey as Laz struggles to retain the hold and force a submission from Casey! The fans are yelling and cheering, wanting to see this result but after several long, hard moments in the hold, Casey uses his power advantage and manages to break the hold.

DUFF: I knew it would never happen.

But Laz is not finished as he is right back on Casey, grabbing him by the foot and delivering a guillotine legdrop on the worked on leg of his opponent. He then starts stomping down onto it as casey tries fighting his way back up to a vertical base. Laz peppers his head with fists but Casey shoves him back down to the mat. Laz is right back up and hits him again and again, Casey shoves him away. Laz still refuses to be stopped and is right back up.

TEX: Give that man credit! He is like a determined dog, all over Big Bad Casey!

DUFF: Fine, someone find me a rolled up newspaper to smack his nose with.

Laz is up and delivering kicks to Casey's weakened leg. He grabs Casey by the arm and puls him into a short-arm clothesline that causes the big man to stumble backward. Laz then grabs him and sets him up for a scoop slam...

DUFF: He sure as hell isn't going to try to...

But he does try but Casey's dead weight is too much and Laz collapses with Casey on top. Chip Long jumps to make the count.

1.....
2.....Laz kicks out!

TEX: What was he thinking trying a body slam on such a huge man?

DUFF: That's just it, he wasn't thinking!

Casey grabs Laz by the neck, drags him to his feet and then lifts him up into the air in a standing choke. The referee issues his mandatory count but at four, Casey lets go and throws Laz down to the mat. Casey then stands over him and drops a legdrop across his head. Casey rolls him over for a pin attempt.

DUFF: That's it!

1.....
2.....
3-NO! Laz kicks out!

The crowd is cheering as Casey stares in disbelief at the referee.

TEX: Laz is a fighter, there is no question about that!

Casey grabs him and Irish whips Laz into the ropes, going for a clothesline, but Laz sucks under and brings Casey down with a float over DDT! The fans go crazy as Laz tries a cover, hooking Casey's tree trunk leg!

1.....
2.....
3-NO! Casey kicks out!

TEX: Oh that was close!

As Casey starts to get back up, Laz runs to the near corner and scales it to the very top. Casey is bent over as he rises and Laz jumps off, landing across the back of Casey's head and neck with a flying Fameasser! Laz tries another cover!

1.....
2.....
3-NO! Casey kicks out again!

TEX: Oh man! What a match this has turned out to be! Laz is really showing he wants this!

Laz hurries up to the top rope and lurks there, waiting for Casey to get back up. As soon as the big man does, Laz jumps off but Casey meets him in mid-air with a clothesline that almost decapitates Laz!

DUFF: Oh! Oh ho ho ho! Oh man did you see that!?

TEX: See it? I felt it!

Casey grabs Laz who seems out on his feet and tucks his head between his knees. Wrapping his arms around his waist he heaves Laz up into the air and drives him down to the mat with a Powerbomb!

DUFF: Oh it is over!

But Casey doesn't go for the pin. He pulls Laz to his feet a second time and this time delivers the Power Up, driving his fist right into Laz's temple, dropping him! Laz crashes to the mat and Casey makes the cover, hooking both legs!

1.....
2.....
3!

"Black Hole Sunn" plays over the sound system and John and Laura climb into the ring to hold their man's arms in the air.

TEX: What a match! Casey pulls off the win but Laz gave him a fight!

DUFF: Yeah even I'll admit that.

Winner of the match... BIG BAD CASEY!!

Winner: Big Bad Casey

After the Matthew Toddi match against Despayre, Matthew Toddi is seen walking through the backstage area, nodding to cameramen and sound crew. From outta nowhere, Gabriel appears, just watching him for a second. Gabriel clears his throat, causing Matthew to turn around. Gabriel drills Matthew with a solid right hand, sending him flying backwards in to a wall. Gabriel drilling him with another right hand, forcing Matthew against the wall and sliding down. Gabriel steps back and nails him with a kick to the chest before pulling him back to his feet by his head and dragging him along towards a wooden chest. Gabriel slams Matthews head against the small wooden box and casually tosses him to the ground. Gabriel opens the box up and grabs Matthew by the chin, looking in his eyes.

Gabriel: Gay-briel? Really?

Gabriel slaps Matthew across the face and tumbles him in to the wooden chest and slams down the lid.

Gabriel: Just lame.

Gabriel rips a black curtain, hanging from the wall of the backstage area and covers the box. He looks down with a few more words.

Gabriel: Be careful who ya make fun of boy, cause bad things can and will always happen to you, believe that!

Gabriel pulls the curtain away and the box has disappeared! Gabriel turns and looks deep in to the camera, raising an eyebrow and walking away.

Gabriel: Gay-briel? How stupid can ya really get?

The scene switches to the back where we see Big Bad Casey. He is seen walking around the backstage area. He sees the camera and gives a sinister looking smirk, and would like to confront Laz before their big match.

Laz, you talk about how you like to kill people regardless of you are ordered to or not. You also talk about me not doing it You are going to be crying because of all the pain I will put you in.

Casey then decides to take a drink of Gatorade. As he drinks, you hear the chorus of the True Power theme song.

I will make a name of myself by first destroying a liar and a coward and a loser like you, then working my way up the AWA ladder until I get what I want, or I will take what I want by force.

Then the scene changes as BBC walks to the ring while his 3 promos re-air.

Dmitri vs. Glenn Frank

Stormy: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the AWA Television Championship. Introducing first, the challenger, from New Mexico, weighing in at 230 pounds, Glenn Frank!!!!!!!!!

The arena goes pitch black as red strobe lights fill the arena. The Intro to "Bodies" by Drowning Pool hits the PA, and out walks Glenn Frank. He has a serious look on his face, as he waits a moment, taking in everything at once. A large flash and explosion happens and Glenn comes to life in a burst of unseen energy as he makes his way down to the ring. He slides under the bottom rope and takes a deep breath before looking up to the Titan-tron as he waits for his opponent to show.

Tex: This man impressed me last week, can he win the TV title this week? We have to wait and see.

Duff: Yes we will, this is bound to be an exciting contest!

Stormy: Introducing the defending AWA Television Champion of the world, from Moscow, Russia, weighing in at 275 pounds, Dmitri!!!!!!!!!

Vampiria's Legacy in Blood hits as the arena goes black and the Titan Tron slowly starts to drip blood until the name of Dmitri appears. Dmitri slowly walks out to the ring with his manager walks in front of him. He does not concern himself for the people that are either exchanging their hands to touch him or to throw their drinks at him. As the two enter the ring his manager opens the ropes for him and allows Dmitri to get in and stare at the people in front of him.

Tex: Was his TV title win a fluke?

Duff: Of course not! This man won the title in a 5 way, one of the AWA’s hardest matches to win in. If he can do that, he can beat Glenn Frank here tonight!

The referee holds the title up in the air, both men stare up at it but Dmitri runs at Glenn with a spear while he was looking at the title. The referee hands the title to the officials outside the ring and calls for the bell. Dmitri makes a quick cover. One… Kickout! Dmitri gets up and drags Frank up as well but gets hit in the gut by a couple of right hands and then a kick. Glenn then bounces off of the ropes and connects with a swift flowing enziugiri. Dmitri quickly gets up as Frank runs towards him, he moves out of the way and throws Frank through the middle and top rope to the outside landing with a big thud! Dmitri then roles out of the ring himself and starts to stomp on Frank who just spilled out to the outside of the ring. He goes to lift Frank up but gets elbowed in the face. Frank the pulls out a chair from the under the ring but keeps it next to the apron out of the referee’s view. He then grabs the groggy Dmitri and plants him into the chair with a DDT!

Tex: No fair, dirty tactics!

Duff: He is known to do that. Everyone loves him because of his tactics!

Frank tries to move from the mats but the weight of Dmitri is to much for him to move! The referee is at the count of 5 and Dmitri s starting to move. Glenn Frank finds himself enough space to move and slides into the ring but Dmitri grabs Frank’s boot! He drags him back outside and then Irish whips him into a crowd barrier. The referee starts the count again after shouting at the 2 men to get back in. Dmitri then climbs the steel steps to get back into the ring. He goes under the third rope but Frank lifts the second rope. Dmitri then falls into the ring in pain holding his groin. Frank slides into the ring and starts to beat down on Dmitri with several right hands but he gets turned over and Dmitri starts to deliver right hands. The referee pulls the 2 apart for not using closed fists. Dmitri walks up to the referee but gets rolled up! The referee counts. One…Two… Kickout! Frank gets up, runs to the ropes, bounces off and does a baseball slide to Dmitri making him roll towards the ropes. Frank lifts him up, runs off the ropes and hits a devastating spear and then turn it into a Boston crab! Dmitri crawls to get away and eventually finds the ropes. The referee yells rope break and Glenn Frank pushes his legs down and steps away.

Tex: I thought he had him there!

Duff: So did I Tex!

Glenn Frank walks towards Dmitri and drags him to the centre of the ring. He taunts as the crowd cheers him on. He bends down to lift him up but gets pulled down into a DDT! Dmitri lies on the ground as he is still hurt from the spear into Boston crab. He roles over and pushes Glenn Frank onto his back. He goes for the cover. One…Two…Thr…Kickout! Glenn roles out of the ring and onto the floor. He gets up and for a second and takes a few breaths before coming back into the ring. Both men lock up into an elbow tie up, their heads go right up close to each other and out of nowhere with the referee’s view minimum, Glenn Frank spits out a red liquid into Dmitri’s face! Dmitri turns away and tries to clear his eyes but gets rolled up. One…Two…Three!!!

Tex: Oh My God, he cheated to win the title!

Duff: Who cares, Its not cheating unless you get caught! He won the TV title!

Stormy: Here is your winner and NEW Television Champion…Glenn Frank!!!

Glenn Frank is handed the belt and he celebrates as the scene fades to advertisements.

Winner: Glenn Frank

Someone opens the door to the AWA office that has the faint etching that said at one time, John Henry Irons, AWA Vice President. Turning on the light, standing there is a woman with pink hair and a white painted face. Her outfit a cross between a something lost in the Victorian era mashed with something a Suicide Girl would wear in public. Looking around she blows the dust that is there.

Woman: Hmmm... fun so this is the crypt that John Irons use to work in. Man look at this all nice and something you would expect from a corporate honcho. Boring. Where are the spiders, the voodoo dolls and a rack? This office is not going to do for me. As long as there is not a coffee maker...

She notices the Mr. Coffee Maker near what was once John Irons desk. She just stares at it with disgust.

Woman: No Mr. Coffee! Heathens! Coffee! Coffee! Coffee! What next Starbucks?

She then notices the packages of Starbucks coffee that John Irons use to make.

Woman: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

With a bat in her hand she swings in anger at the coffee and desk smashing it down! She swings trashing the Mr. Coffee with all her might. Every bit left behind by John Irons is smashed and destroyed by this woman in her rage. After looking at the mess she has created the only thing she has left not broken is the phone on the desk. She picks up makes a call.

Woman: Yes, this is the Vice President's office. Well... can someone come to my office and clean this crap up? And while you are at it bring me some tea, not bagged. The loose leaf tea containers I brought. Things are going to be changing this Halloween.

With her only hearing what is on the other end she grins with a smile. .

Woman: Who am I? Well I am Penny Dreadful, the new AWA Vice President! And my coming out party is coming at next week's Insomnia! And wait until the roster get a load of me!

She smiles a broad viper grin, her green eyes looking straight into the camera.

Penny: They said only a lunatic would take this job! Well I am that lunatic! Isn't that Dreadful?

And she laughs with the sound of madness.

Bill Barnhart is seen at the Concession Stand purchasing some goodies for a snack. The roving cameraman catches sight of him and shoves his camera in his face. Bill looks up and comments into the camera.

You people would disturb me if I was in the bathroom taking a dump if I didn't close the door and lock it eh? Can't a man even purchase some goodies for a snack without a camera being shoved in his face? Yeah, I am purchasing Pizza, Classic Coke, and some cinnamon pretzels, for a snack. You see I am in very heavy training for my match with Morbius Tassius later tonight. Uh huh...this is how hard I have to train to defeat a fool like Morbius. Eat some pizza, a few cinnamon pretzels, and wash it all down with a large cup of Classic Coke. Like you think I have to go to the gym and work out in order to beat Tassius? Get real!

Bill's turn is next and he walks up to the counter and places his order. The clerk hands him the order in a large box and as Barnhart turns to return to his dressing room he nearly knocks the cameraman over as he bumps into him.

Man, get the hell out of my way punk!

Bill bumps the cameraman out of his way and the last we see ofhim is as he walks down the hallway to his dressing room. Bill Barnhart vs. Morbius Tassius

Stormy Canyon: The following steel cage match is for the AWA International Championship!<.

Tex: The main event, AWA Fans! Bill Barnhart has to defend his International Championship against Morbius Tassius, who won the chance to face the International Champion at last week's PPV Bloodshed.

Duff: That was a brutal match, but I suspect Bill wants to take a bite out of Morbius that or his Bulldog, Iris. I just hope Bill had his rabies shots.

Stormy Canyon: Coming to the ring the challenger from Des Moines, Iowa. Weighing in at 240 lbs. Standing at 6 2"': MORBIUS TASSIUS!<.

' Stronger by Trust Company' comes over the speakers as the words, ”Simply Greatness” comes across the tron. Morbius makes his way onto the stage before the ramp. He looks out to the crowd and smirks as her turns his head to the ring. He begins to walk down the ramp way and the song makes its way to the chorus. The tron is showing clips from old Morbius matches with reels of his finishers. He makes his way to the ring and he knees up on to the apron while patting his chest. He goes between the ropes and does a spin around holding his arms out wide. He climbs one of the corner turnbuckles and olds his arms out wide with fists tight. He hops back down and waits for the match to start.

Duff: Now that is someone who is seething for his chance to have some gold wrapped around his waist.

Tex: Morbius is a skilled competitor but it will take more than a seething need to win the International Championship from our champion.

Stormy Canyon: Coming to the ring is the AWA International Champion! From Oakland, California. Weighing in at 240 lbs. Standing at 6', "Bulldog" BILL BARNHART!

TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS by Bachman Turner Overdrive hits the speakers. The TRON crackles to life and we see a close-up shot of Bill Barnhart wearing his International Championship Belt and Iris his English Bulldog. The TRON then shifts scenes to several clips of Bill's wrestling matches where he is either administering his Bulldog or Piledriver to his opponent for the pin fall, or he is using one of his many submission moves to make them tap out. The spotlights focus on the backstage curtains and we see Bulldog Bill Barnhart step through the curtains leading Iris on her leash. Bill comes out dressed in one of his trademark wrestling outfits the black outfit with pink trim with a pink heart sown over his heart. Iris is dressed in her Pink Diamond-Studded Dog Collar. Bill walks confidently along the entrance walkway and under the TRON. As he walks under the TRON, pink and white pyros erupt causing a cascade of pink sparks to spill down on the entrance walkway around Bill and Iris. Bill stops at the landing at the top of the entrance ramp to play the crowd with a huge smile on his face even though he gets mostly boos from the crowd, a little boy with a stuffed Iris plush doll has a sad look on his face seeing how his hero has fallen on his face. He then takes off with a quick pace to the ring. When Bill arrives at the ring he hands the leash of Iris to an attendant at ringside climbing the ring steps, walks along the ring apron, and then ducks through the ropes into the ring. Bill walks around the ring to acknowledge all the people in the crowd and he maintains his huge smile all the time although the crowd is booing him for his bad turn. Bill then takes up residence in a corner accessing his challenger Morbius Tassius then thumb over his throat mocking him.

Tex: The AWA International Champion and the challenger are having words. The bell has not even rung yet and they are already to go.

Duff: Morbius has moved in clotheslining Bill Barnhart! I bet he wishes he did not put his thumb over this throat now!.

The steel cage the prison where tow wrestlers battle each other to a bloody pulp for the chance to escape the prison. The first to leave the ring setting his feet on the outside would become the victor and be the AWA International Champion. Now feeling the fury of his angry challenger Morbius Tassius, 'Bulldog' Bill Barnhart finds that he is dog already having to fight for his life just before that bell rang. The AWA Champion finds himself in Morbius Tassius's mercy as he is corner receiving heavy slaps and marks across his body. Bill Barnhart feels each blow hard and slap against his body as Tassius changes tactics using the ropes he pushes his shoulder deep into Bill's gut and body. Morbius Tassius has come to win hell or high water tonight he will! Bill's reign is going to end and he will walk out of the door as the International Champion.

Duff: Morbius is bringing it all out! Bill Barnhart looks like a dog Michael Vick would have drowned because he had no fight left!

Tex: AWA International Champion, Bill Barnhart is struggling here. Morbius took the shot and Bill has not recovered.

Climbing up to the second rope Morbius looks over at the fans then winds up his fist to deliver some fists to the face of Bill Barnhart. Hitting Bulldog in the head a few times. Morbius's eyes go wide as he stops in mid punch starting to hold his gut after Bulldog head butts him in the neither regions. Lifting Morbius by his legs Bulldog rushes to the middle of the ring delivering a spinebuster to Morbius. Morbius falls down holding his tail bone running in a circle on his side. Bill falls down to all fours catching his breath shaking his head. The Bulldog only takes a moment gettng over to Morbius lifting him up by his hair then rakes his face with laces of his boot. Bulldog starts to stomp the hell out Morbius making sure to work on the lower half where he started. Morbius is in pain as each blow takes him down lower and lower. Happy with what he did, Bulldog heads over to door.
