The opening credits end we see the returning team of AWA play by play team, Tex Martin and Duff Travers. The fans at the Times Union Center, Albany in New York are on their feet excited pointing to the cameras showing their signs and t-shirts for their favorite or least favorite wrestler or AWA personality.

Tex: Welcome back AWA fans! It is good to be back from our two week Winter Break. It was good to spend the holidays with the family and I hope all the same even to my partner here Duff Travers. So what did you do over the holidays Duff.

Duff: Went to Las Vegas and Atlantic City gambled and spent time with lots of strippers. I completely avoided those morons that are my family. They keep giving me coal each Christmas! Screw that! Rather spend my money on brothels than having to get them anything.

Tex: No family time? No Christmas Carols? No gifts around the tree and good will to man?

Duff: Goodwill to man? What about goodwill to Duff? Trust me, after getting a lap dance from Mona makes you forget about your family.

'Freak' by Gothminister starts playing as we see the lawyer of the owner of the company, Goth come sout shaking his hands as on the Titan Tron we can see Lady Justice all covered in blood. His eyes are pierced towards the ring looking at the AWA fans as his smile reveals sinister intentions.

Damien Rothenburg: Hello you peons, I am back. Master Goth is still seriously injured so he has me in charge to make sure his wishes are known. Master Goth has made me the acting General Manager of all of the AWA! Especially since we were forced to suspend Thor Odinson from his Vice President duties.

The fans boo louder but Damien does not give a damn, he has evil plans they will not be denied by a booing crowd. A booing crowd is music to his ears.

Damien Rothenburg: As many of you know, our AWA President Goth was ruthlessly attacked by no provocation by Despayre of our Tag Team Champions, the Sinful Obsession.

Tex: No reason? Goth with Axiom and the Statement attacked Angel, Despayre's trusted teddy bear companion!

Fans boo Damien, Goth's little troll but the man does not care. Some fans hold up signs asking what has happened to Angel. Others hold sings for Thor.

Damien Rothenburg: Because of that vile act by Despayre againt our President and Owner Goth. I had no choice in the clause of the match for Merry Mayhem III between Vice President Thor Odinson and Master Goth to suspend Thor Odinson from his duties as AWA Vice President!

The fans chant, Thor, but Damien dismisses the fans. Waiting for them to quiet down so he can continue.

Damien Rothenburg: Oh please, no one cares about that tall blond haired golden boy. Now Despayre don't think Goth and I have forgotten about you. Oh no we have not. forgotten you, Despayre. That is why next week's show at CONSOL Energy Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Jan 17th, all of the 7 Deadly Sins, but you, Despayre are banned from the show. Even your precious little teddy bear, Angel! Banned! If any of your fellow Sins, show you and yours will be terminated from the AWA! That is right Despayre. Next week, No Gabriel. No Chris Shipman. No Synn none of them especially your precious teddy bear, Angel are all banned from the AWA next week! No help from your friends in your match next week, Despayre! Against an opponent or opponents and in rules of my choosing!

Goth's evil little troll laughs evilly as the fans boo. Everyone knows how important the Sins and Angel are to Despayre! So does Damien who rubs his hands gleefully knowing this has torn through the heart of Despayre. The thought of the pain Despayre is hearing must be torn through his heart.

Damien Rothenburg: Despayre, I am not going to ban, you. Suspend you. Or anything like that. No, you are going to suffer for what you did to Master Goth! Suffer like no man in the AWA has suffered before! And if your teddy bear is found next week, I will personally cut him to shreds as you are forced to watch with these scissors!

Damien pulls out a large pair of scissors from the back of his jacket. They look like a pair of hedge clippers. Damien demonstrates the blades are looking to the booing AWA audience.

Damien Rothenburg: Yes, your bear will be in pieces. I will finish what Master Goth started on your precious angel! What?!

The sound of a Viking horn is heard through the stadium before some heavy metal guitar and drums pound through the AWA speakers. The theme song of Thor Odinson, "God of Thunder" by Heavy Metal Viking German band, Rebellion shakes the stadium. The electric generators spark showing their lightning as a man stands at the top of the ramp holding up Ball Buster, his warhammer with a shortened handle with a leather stra in his other hand is an AWA microphone. Thor's long blonde hair falls to his shoulders his face smiles towards the AWA crowd. He is wearing a pair of black trunks with the Viking rune of Mjolnir on the trunk and a black t-shirt. The fans cheer wildly as Damien Rothenburg scowls not believing this.

Damien Rothenburg: Thor Odinson! You have been suspended from your duties as Vice President of the AWA! You are not allowed to be here! Security!

Thor: Oh, Damien so good to see you too. Don't worry about security they are currently busy trying to calm down Despayre. Should see the kid, you have him not in a good place. He is a handful.

With confidence and swagger the kind coming from he has no need to prove himself he already knows how good he is. Thor Odinson heads to the ring looking over at Damienwith not so happy look. Walking up the steps to the ring, Thor does not enter the ring. The climbs the nearest turnbuckle on the outside. Turning around looking at AWA fans on the top turnbuckle. Thor lifts his warhammer once more getting a surge of cheers from the fans. Getting down from the turnbuckle, Thor keeps his warhammer with him grinning at Damien Rothenburg.

Damien Rothenburg: You have no place here, Thor! You have been suspended as the Vice President of the AWA!

Thor: I know, but Damien you see.

Thor puts his arm around Damien Rothenburg in a friendly manner, the little troll stiffens bracing in case Thor applies another Hammer of the Gods to him.

Thor: You suspended me from my duties as Vice President, but you have not suspended or canceled my wrestling contract. You see Damien, you cannot touch me there. I have not violated anything as a wrestler in the AWA for you to touch me. So I am back in the ring and going to be spending all my free time being a royal pain in you and Goth's ass until Goth shows himself and we finish our little match so I can return as Vice President.

Damien Rothenburg: What?

Thor: You forget, I was a full time wrestler and the International Champion but I injured my knee so I had to forfeit my championship. Well I have been on injured reserve since 2009 and when I faced Fang in November, I was cleared to be back as a full time wrestler here in the AWA by our doctors and our legal department which is you.

Damien Rothenburg: Ummm no that is not what....

Thor lets his war hammer hand from its leather strap as he takes out a contact, an AWA Wrestling Contract handing it over to Damien Rothenburg, who is looking at the contract in disbelief.

Thor: This is a legal copy of my AWA Wrestling Contract. See that signed at the bottom line? That is both your and Goth's signatures. So I am back to the ring and you Damien cannot do a thing about it.

Damien Rothenburg: No.. yes... you cannot.

Thor: Oh and Despayre not having any of his stable with him. That is fine. I will stand by Despayre as his friend.

Damien Rothenburg: You cannot do this! This is against the plan! You cannot do.

Damien realizes that he let his guard down and now finds himself in a reverse headlock in Thor's hands.

Damien Rothenburg: Let me go! Let me go!

Thor: And here is for good luck!

Thor rubs the head of Damien with his knuckles giving the acting AWA GM a noggy messing up the little man's hair. Thor then releases Damien who runs away as his hair is all messed up as the AWA is laughing at him, which Damien does like at all. Thor heads out of the ring with a grin on his face.

Damien Rothenburg: Shut up! Shut Up! All of you! You! You will pay for this!

The camera pans backstage where Morbius Tassius is leaning on a wall all ready for his match. As the camera pans to his face the crowd goes wild seeing there former hero ready to come back to the ring. Morbius smirks at the camera and starts to speak.

Morbius: Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! Children of all Ages! I would like to welcome you back to the Era of Greatness! The Moment of Glory! The Time of Legends has come again! That's right. Morbius Tassius is back! And I am here to stay!

The crowd can be heard going wild again as Morbius stops leaning and stands up straight.

Morbius: Tonight I face off against Damon Divine, the poor unfortunate fellow that has honor of fighting against me. I hope that he brought his A game because he is going to need every once of it to get me to break a sweat. But on to more important things. Something big is happening tonight folks. Well more then one something to be precise. But I can't spoil the surprise. Lets just say its going to shock the world as we know it. Brace yourself kids. It's time for a show.

Morbius turns from the camera and starts to head for the ring through the backstage area.

Morbius Tassius vs. Damon Divine

The camera is backstage of the Times Union Center and finds the returning Morbius Tassius walking the hall corridor en route to the arena, and the crowd cheers as they see him on the AWA Jumbo-Tron.

Tex: It's been a long time since we've seen Morbius Tassius here in the AWA.

Duff: Not long enough.

Morbius comes out towards the stage where he will enter the arena through the curtains, and he climbs that first step when Damon Divine comes out from behind a partially closed door and he runs up and strikes Tassius in the back with a fire extinguisher!

Tex: I guess the hardcore match is kicking things off early!

Damon Divine vs. Morbius Tassius - Hardcore Match

Morbius stumbles back off of the entry steps and onto the floor and Damon sprays him in the face with the extinguisher's contents! Morbius flays and grabs at his face and eyes, bending over, giving Damon a prime target to drive the extinguisher down onto! Morbius collapses to his knees and Damon is right on him, pounding him with fists to the head. Damon grabs him by the hair and sends him careening into a stack of crates on the side of the hall, sending the heavy wood crashing over. He then takes his arm and sends him into the wall! Morbius falls down to the hall floor and Damon wastes no times going for the cover!

Duff: Can they even get the pins back there?

Tex: A hardcore match, anything goes Duff! They can pin them wherever and however they want to!

Referee Simon Jones dives in and makes the count!

1.....

2.....Morbius kicks out!

Damon stands up, grabbing Simon by the shirt and he starts to berate the referee for his not scoring the easy three count he feels he deserved. He roughly releases the official and turns back around but Tassius is alert again and he grabs a trash can and swings it, throwing it right into Divine's body, knocking him back! Morbius then pounces, taking the newcomer down with a Thesz press and starts hammering him with rights to the temple.

Tex: Morbius mounting a comeback.

Duff: By mounting Damon!

Tex: You just had to go there...

Morbius grabs Damon and drags him up and goes to whip him into a door in the hallway but Damon reverses it and Morbius hits the door instead. Damon charges right at him and jumps, going for a back splash against him but Tassius moves and Damon hits the door so hard it busts open and he flies through onto the other side! The fans start cheering as the two combatants are in the public access hall with many of the food vendors.

Duff: hey there's a beer cart! I could use a brew myself right about now.

The fans in line for food and drinks are rooting and hollering as the two men are up and swinging at each other with lefts and rights. Damon brings a knee up into his ribs and brings him toward another door near the lines and heaves Tassius through it. Tassius goes skidding and ends up on the kitchen floor where some workers begin scattering!

Duff: I wonder if I can get either of the to grab me some donuts while they're there?

Tex: I think they have other things on their mind.

Duff: How selfish.

Damon grabs a cookie sheet from a counter and swings it with a clang down onto Morbius's head. Damon then pulls him up and actually lifts him up into a suplex position and drops him forward onto the hard, kitchen prep floor!

Tex: Wow! I really wasn't expecting to see many actual wrestling moves in this one!

Damon then signals to the cheering masses and climbs up onto the kitchen counter as Morbius starts to get to his feet. Morbius turns around and Damon flies but Tassius catches him with a powerslam onto the floor!

Tex: Ohhhh!

Tassius with the cover and hooks the leg!

1.....

2.....Damon kicks out!

Morbius pulls Damon in a front facelock, back out through the open kitchen door and into the hallway again. Damon though hits him with a kidney shot and pushes forward with his legs, bulling him into the wall. Damon then grabs two handfuls of his opponent's head and slams it back into the wall once, twice, three times! Damon punches him with a right and grabs a handful of his hair and starts down the hall, bringing Morbius with him. He grabs Morbius by the arm and whips him into a door and Tassius falls through and immediately there are female screams!

Tex: Oh my....

Several women come rushing out, screaming and the crowd watching cheers as the cameraman and referee rush inside after the pair!

Duff: They're in the women's bathroom!

Duff hits a fist into Morbius's head and starts to drag him up but Morbius grabs him around the waist and Hot Shots him into the bathroom sink! Morbius then grabs him and puts his head into a stall door...

Duff: Imagine the embarrassment if some chick was using...

Morbius then slams the door hard on Damon's head! Damon falls back, holding his head, and Morbius tears the tampon dispenser off of the wall and throws it down onto Divine's body! Morbius drops down with a cover on Damon.

1.....

2.....Damon gets a shoulder up.

Tex: try to explain to the boys backstage if he had gotten pinned after getting hit by THAT!

Morbius starts to pull him up but Damon swings an uppercut right between his legs, stopping him fast! Morbius staggers back, holding himself, and Damon hits a shining wizard right to the face! Damon brings him back out into the hallway and he shoves Morbius's head down into a large ice chest filled with icy water and soda cans!

Tex: Good lord its like he's trying to drown him!

Duff: Anything goes baby! It's all good!

Morbius's arms swing and his legs kick as Damon holds his head under the water, until he finally brings him back up and swings a soda can into his head, knocking him to the floor! Damon then tips the chest over, spilling the entire contents everywhere on the floor. Damon then pi ked up the fallen chest and drives it down across Morbius's upper body!

Tex: Ohh what a shot!

Morbius holds his chest where he was struck and Damon covers him.

1.....

2.....Morbius kicks out!

Damon stands up and delivers several stomps down into Morbius's body before dragging him by the leg down the hallway where a large stack of chairs are set up against the wall. Damon pulls him up and whips him towards the chairs and Morbius lands right in the mass, sending them all scattering across the floor. Damon then stalks him up from behind and grabs him but Morbius has one of the chairs in hand and he swings it back and up, right in Damon's head!

Duff: Oh ho ho ho! Who didn't see that coming?

Tex: Apparently Damon!

Damon goes down like he was shot and Morbius follows up by throwing the chair down across Damon's back! Morbius covers him and hooks both legs!

1.....

2.....Damon gets a shoulder up!

Morbius grabs the wooden table nearby and picks it up. He sets it up against the wall in a slant, then goes back for Damon. He pulls Divine up and goes to send him into the table but Damon reverses it and sends Morbius crashing into -- and through -- the table!

Tex: Give Damon a LOT of credit! This is his first match here in the AWA and he's giving Morbius the fight of his life!

Damon holds his head and shakes the cobwebs loose before he makes a cover on Morbius while he lays in the table's scattered remains.

1.....

2.....Morbius kicks out!

Damon shouts a loud curse that gets 'bleeped'. He reaches down and pulls Tassius back to his feet and he power whips him across the hall and Morbius hits the makeup lady's table! The makeup woman, Janet, drops her materials and takes off as Foxxy Dreams takes off from the chair she was sitting in. Damon comes up and grabs a handful of makeup and smears it into Morbius's face. He drives a fist into the back of his head, when Morbius grabs a van of hairspray and sprays it into Damon's eyes, blinding him! Damon staggers back, screaming out and swinging blindly with his fists. Morbius, his face smeared with dark makeup, grabs a lamp and clobbers Damon in the head, sending him tumbling to the floor in a heap!

Tex: What a shot!

Morbius wipes the makeup from his eyes and then grabs the electric iron from the board where the wrestler's garments got steamed. He then holds the iron right down across Damon's back and hit the steam! Damon immediately starts struggling and screaming!

Tex: My god he's burning him with that iron!

Duff: Looks like Tassius has a bit of a mean streak in him!

Morbius throws the iron down onto him and storms off down the hall. He arrives where a forklift is stationed and climbs into the driver's seat. he turns the key and starts the engine.

Duff: What the hell's he doing?

Morbius drives the forklift with it's large stack of heavy pallets up to where a burned Damon, still partially blinded, is pulling himself up against the wall. Damon opens his eyes partially and sees the pallets coming at him and Morbius parks the load right up against him, pinning him against the wall.

Morbius then hops down off of the seat and to the floor. He calls the referee over and jumps up onto the pallets and presses his hands against Damon's shoulders. he shouts at the official to count!

Duff: Count!? He can't count! He's not even...

The ref looks around and finally shrugs and he indeed does make the count on the trapped Damon!

1.....

2.....

3!

Winner: Morbius Tassius!

The crowd watching from inside the arena cheers as Morbius raises his fists in the air and walks away, leaving Damon pinned by the forklift!

Tex: Well the AWA is all about firsts and we just witnessed one right there! Never before in the history of professional wrestling has a man ever been pinned...standing up!

Winner: Morbius Tassius

The crowd is buzzing from the opening of the first Asylum Wrestling Alliance Insomnia event of 2011. While they are talking we hear TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS by Bachman Turner Overdrive hit the speakers in the Times Union Center. The attention of the fans is directed to the entrance area where they see Bill Barnhart walk out from the backstage area. He is dressed in his black wrestling attire, which has pink trim and a pink heart sewn on the chest. As he walks out to the landing we notice Barnhart has a microphone in one hand and a Bible in the other. Bill raises his hand to silence the crowd and the crowd quiets down to hear what he has to say.

Welcome to the Year 2011 and the first Asylum Wrestling Alliance Insomnia event of the new year. Since the December 2010 Pay-per-View, when I was asked to join Axiom Stable, and I accepted the offer of Matthew Toddi, there has been a lot of speculation and rumors going around as to why I joined Axiom. I am here tonight to end your speculation and put an end to the rumors. I always tell the truth so you are going to get the truth from me.

Bill hesitates for a moment as the crowd erupts in a roar of mixed reactions. When they quiet down he continues with his presentation.

The reason so many of you are surprised that I joined Axiom is that I had a major feud going with them during 2010. I had some vicious matches against them and it got really nasty at times. I could not believe that they were telling the truth when I knew that I was being truthful. However, when I saw them release Chris Shipman it made me realize that if Shipman was too radical for them then maybe they were not that bad after all. Then after I had it out with Big Bad Casey it dawned on me that it was Casey who was polluting my mind with lies. I should have realized that Casey was poisoning my mind with his lies about Axiom but since he was a friend and Stable-mate I looked the other way. Well after I ditched Big Bad Casey I realized that it was Casey, and not the members of Axiom, who was the problem. So when Chaos and Matthew Toddi approached me with an offer to join them I readily accepted.

The crowd again erupts into a mixed reaction but still with more disapproval than approval. Bill drops the mic to his side and waits for them to quiet down before continuing. When the crowd finally calms down Bill continues with his comments.

Please allow me to continue. I want you to know when I came to Axiom that my friend and Tag Team Partner, Th1rt3en, joined Axiom also. We are still a Tag Team and we will soon take on the Tag Team Champions for the Tag Title Belts. But that is another story I won't go into here. I want you to know that Axiom is focused on the truth. They are focused on enlightenment. Although some members of Axiom are more religious than others, we all wish to project the truth as purely as we can, using the Bible as a basis. With that said please allow me to read from my Bible here to give you the analogy as it relates to Axiom Stable.

The crowd goes into a mostly negative reaction as Bill opens his Bible and turns to the page he wishes to read from. Again he waits until the crowd quiets down before he continues with his reading.

In the Book of John it states: In the beginning was the word...In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not...That was the true light..." Now you are all sitting they with your deer-in-the-headlights look trying to figure out what this reading has to do with me and Axiom. So glad you asked. There is so damn much evil here in Asylum Wrestling Alliance and Axiom is here to take out that evil. It goes like this: In the beginning was Axiom...In Axiom is life...and Axiom is the light of men. And the light of Axiom shines in the darkness and those of you in the darkness cannot comprehend Axiom's light...Axiom is the true light. Now do you understand? Now do you see the true light of Axiom? Now do you see why a truthful and honest wrestler like me joined Axiom when they asked me to? My opponents for tonight, Sterling Rhodes and Laz, will see the light of Axiom when I totally destroy them and retain my International Title!

The entire arena erupts in disrespect toward Bill Barnhart and all the fans are on their feet yelling at him to get the hell out of the arena and leave them alone. Bill Barnhart closes his Bible and holds it in his hand by his side. He drops the mic to his side with his other hand. Bill doesn't say another word but he just turns and walks toward the backstage area and he disappears behind the backstage partition.

Despayre, one half of the AWA Tag Team Champions Sinful Obsession, is pushing a wheel chair through the back corridors of the arena. Sitting in the wheelchair is Angel, Despayre's constant teddy bear companion and manager, some bandages are on the bear. Despy is following the signs posted to head to the AWA Clinic in his rush he does not notice hiding in an alcove is Penny Dreadful clutching her own teddy bear, Alice.

Penny Dreadful: Penny Dreadful: Hi....

Despayre looks down at the little bear in the wheelchair and pauses. He looks around not seeing Penny.

Despayre: Hmm, what? Who?

He turns around and starts in mild surprise to see Penny Dreadful with Alice, he does not notice the tears down Penny's eyes.

Despayre: Oh hello...Penny! And Alice...look Angel, its Alice!

Despayre looks down and sighs.

Despayre: Oh great, he's being bashful now of all times.

Penny Dreadful: Yeah... I we have been worried

She nods sourly wipping her eyes. Despayre looks down at Angel in the wheelchair.

Despayre: See? I *told* you she liked you! ... I am not embarrassing you!

Penny clutches her Alice close looking at Angel in the wheelchair in his bandages.

Penny Dreadful: It hurts doesn't it?

Despayre fidgets.

Despayre: Yes it did. Still does.

He rolls his eyes as if he is hearing Angel say something.

Despayre: I *know* what Fang said was true! Angel protects me but still, you have to look out for your bestest friends. And Angel and me are buddies til the end.

Penny Dreadful: Yeah... you do.

*wipes eye holding Alice givng a broad look around*

Penny Dreadful: Glad you beat Goth to a pulp he deserved it.

Despayre blushes and starts to fidget, uncomfortable with the praise. He looks everywhere but at her and asks timidly.

Despayre: You're not mad?

Penny Dreadful: Penny Dreadful: No. Relieved. You hurt him.

Despayre: Well, he hurt Angel. I know he's my protector but you don't hurt my friend!

Penny Dreadful: Yeah... people are sick to hurt someone's friend.

*Penny Dreadful holds Alice tighter to herself. Despayre nods and looks down and leans in close to Angel. He looks back up and smiles.

Despayre: Angel wants to know if Alice saw him beat the Statement up.

Penny Dreadful: Alice saw Statement help hurt Angel.

Despayre: Hmm, yeah. He's next on the list.

Despayre looks at the bear in the wheelchair.

Despayre: I'll make a note of it.

He pulls out a tiny notepad and starts writing.

Penny Dreadful: Now Damien is running things in Goth's absence. He won't leave me alone. Where ever I go he just appears at the worst times.

Despayre: Despayre: Damien? Is he the little boy with the weird tattoo that everyone is scared of? Like the Boogey Boy?

Penny Dreadful: He... he is Goth's lawyer and if Goth beats Thor then... Goth said he will give me to Damien if Thor lost the match. Well the match never happened but Damien thinks he now owns me.

Despayre: He can't do that! You can't just *give* people to other people! I mean, what are we? Hare Krishnas?

Penny Dreadful: Goth is taking people's souls. Thor and Goth are fighting over mine.

Penny Dreadful: Goth... Goth... is not human... Nor is Damien...

Despayre: What are they? Like, you know, boogey men?

Penny Dreadful: Like like true evil.

Despayre: Wow, and I beat Goth up? Kudos to me!

Penny Dreadful: But Goth... will be coming back... angry and more vengeful. He already giving too much power to his fiend.

Despayre: Well *I'm* not afraid of him! And neither is Angel! And you shouldn't be either. We can potect you! Me and Angel and Gabriel and Synn and....hm, I know I'm forgetting someone.

*shakes head*

Despayre: Oh well.

Penny Dreadful: Thor, but Damien... he he fired him at Merry Mayhem III.

Despayre: No more Thor? Booooooo. He fired Thor!? THE Thor? He can't do that! Thor is like my favorite superhero and you can't stop him! He always comes back!

Penny Dreadful: He said... that it was stipulations in case something happened to Goth.

Despayre: But...but Thor didn't do anything to Goth. ... I did.

Penny Dreadful: *nods* I know, but Damien said it was in the match clause just in case someone did so for Thor.

Despayre: I didn't do it for Thor! I did it for Angel!

Penny Dreadful: I know but it is what Damien claims and now he is coming after me.

Despayre: Lawsuit! Lawsuit! I wanna see Judge Judy!

Penny Dreadful: You have to help us. I am afraid what they will do to Alice.

She pleads with her green tear soaked eyes.

Despayre: What can I...

Despy looks down at Angel.

We do? (leans in) Does she need a witness relocation? Or maybe a bodyguard?

Penny Dreadful: Help me. Please.

Despayre: What can we do? Wanna travel with us? I can bring you back to our dressing room but ya hafta promise not to peek!

Penny Dreadful: Umm okay... Can I bring Alice?

Despayre: I think you better. Angel wants to regale her with stories from his many adventures!

Despy grabs her hand and starts pulling her along

Despayre: Word of caution tho. he does tend to ramble on.

Penny Dreadful: *nods* Thank you.

The cameras switch to a scene outside the arena. Fans are lined up in the bitter cold, waiting to get up to a table. As the camera swings around we can see Cheka and a pair of tough looking Russian thug types sitting with her at a table. People are signing some kind of form. From just outside the camera's frame, KGB steps in front of the camera with a mic.

KGB: Tonight, well, tonight we are witnessing the beginning of the Revolution. Tonight people are joining the Revolution, signing to help us in our struggle to put a stop to this capitalistic greed. We are going to fight to bring America and the rest of the West back to standards that made this one of the greatest countries in the world. Tonight, we will witness the Revolution's beginnings when I take that title from Shane West. Revolution's calling, will YOU

KGB pauses and points directly at the camera.

KGB: stand up and make your voice be heard, will YOU … stand up and fight for what is right, or will you be like all the other sheep and follow the herd. The Revolution's calling, are you gonna answer that call.

KGB moves over to the table where people start chanting his name.

KGB: See these people, they are the true leaders, waiting here in the bitter cold to sign up for the Revolution. They are not afraid to tell corporate America where they can shove it. These are people who know what is right, and what is not. They know that my opponents represent that which they despise. Tonight, the know who will be crowned the new Television Champion.

He turns to the line of people waiting and yells.

KGB: Who's gonna be the next Televion Champion?

Again the crowd begins the chant of 'K - G - B … K - G - B. KGB turns to his manager, Cheka.

KGB: So comrade, how is the sign up going?

Cheka: Everything is going extremely well, comrade. We already have a couple of hundred names and as you can see, the line is still very long. Now get in there teach those imbeciles a lesson.

KGB: Yes, yes, it is time to show the world, that the Revolution has begun. The time of corporate dominance is coming to an end. West, McVay, count yourselves lucky as you will be the first to experience the Revolution. The Russian Assassin is coming.

The camera slowly fades to black with KGB pointing into the camera.

The camera pans to backstage where Shane West can be seen hugging the walls like a spy on the prowl. He ducks himself into a corner and waits. Moments later you can see a door marked Axiom open up and its members file out and head down the hallway. Shane sneaks around from the corner and enters the locker room. He goes over to one of the lockers and opens it up.

Shane: Good to see you old friend.

Shane quickly takes his belt out of the locker and heads out of the room. The camera then pans back to the crowd as the cheers don't stop.

The cameras cut backstage to outside the locker room of Anthony Phoenix. The door is a jar and he can be heard talking.

Phoenix- Just make sure he knows whats coming to him. Make sure he knows who the real New Era are, and make sure he knows that we mean business!

The scene then cuts to Stormy Canyon who is stood by Scott McVay.

Stormy- Well Swifty, your about to go into what seems to be the most important title matchup of your short career here in the Asylum. Theres been alot of talk backstage that your brother and Anthony Phoenix are going to do everything in their power to stop you from becoming the new Television Champion. Do you have any sort of back up incase they try to interfere?

McVay- Let me tell you this Stormy. When a man on a galloping horse passes a hundered dollor bill does he stop? No, he does not stop, and that is because a man on a galloping horse would not see the hundred dollor bill. My brother Conrad has chosen to allign himself with the wrong heel. He has chosen the weak link of this company instead of staying true to his blood. Those two queens dont concern me. What concerns me is my title matchup. As far as im concerned the only man who will walk out of tonights match a champion is me, Scott Swifty McVay. KGB and Shane West can live in denial all they want but the two of them know exactly whats going to happen. The writing is already on the wall.

Stormy- Thanks Swifty, lets go to ringside!

Swifty McVay vs. KGB vs. Shane West(c)

Tex: We just saw a great opening contest to 2011!

Duff: Yes we did and the next contest in my mind is going to be even better!

Stormy Canyon: The following contest is for the AWA Television CHampionship. Introducing first, from Detroit, Michigan, weighing in at 236 pounds, Swifty McVay!!!!!!!!!

The lights dim and a loud siren can be heard echoing around the arena. After ten seconds of the siren, P.Diddys "All About The Benjamins" hits on the speaker system. McVay appears from the back with his eyes fixed on the ring. The fans reaction is varied. Some cheer, some boo. Some dont give a shit. McVay makes his way to the ring at walking pace but he isnt hanging around. He ignores the fans as they slap his arms and back when he reaches the ring steps. He stops breifly and stares into the crowd before climbing the steps and standing on the aprin. He steps through the ropes and runs towards the furthest away turnbuckle. He climbs up and raises his arms. The crowd cheer. McVay then jumps down and stands in his chosen corner as his music cuts.

Tex: Seeing as this man is in this match, there is no reason for this match to be bad.

Duff: This match will be even better knowing the next challenger to the TV title!

Stormy Canyon: Introducing the second challenger to the AWA Television title. From Moscow, Russia, Weighing in at 219 pouns, KGB!!!!!!!!!

KGB appears at the stage entrance with Cheka and slowly walks to the ring. Upon entering he and Cheka move to the center of the ring and stand at attention for the playing of the Russian National Anthem. Once the Anthem is over he hands his ushanka to Cheka as she exits the ring and he prepares to face his opponent and awaits the AWA TV champion.

Tex: Being the lightest of the 3 men, he might find it tricky to get his opponents down.

Duff: Yes but he is not the lightest by much, only a mere pound!

Stormy Canyon: Introducing the AWA Television champion, From Fayetteville, North Carolina, weighing in at 220 pounds, Shane West!!!!!!!!!

The lights go out, and a strobe starts flashing, as the first notes of “Its a Fight” by 3-6 Mafia hits. As “Its Going Down” hits, Shane West steps from behind the curtain, stopping at the top of the rampway, he pats his chest a few times and smiles, a flash of his confidence shining through. Standing at the top of the rampway, pyrotechnics go off, white in color. His eyes remain focused on the ring though, as he loosens up at the top of the rampway, and runs down the rampway sliding into the ring. He runs to the far rope, and jumps on it, perching himself, and pointing to the crowd on that side, before springboarding off, and moving to another side. Finally, when he has posed for every side of the ring, he walks to his turnbuckle, removing his jacket, and drapes it over the rope. He climbs the turnbuckle, standing on the second rope, and leans over it, staring out at the crowd, as they continue to react to his presence, cheering.

Tex: Can he walk away champion?

Duff: Or will he be leaving empty handed? Theres only one way to find out!

The bell is rung and all 3 men stare at each other. They circle the ring until out of nowhere Swifty runs at KGB with a knee to the gut. Shane walks over the them and starts to pound away at KGB in the corner. Shane whispers into Swifty's ear and he irish whips KGB into the ropes but Shane superkicks Swifty who is next to him down to the ground and then as KGB runs back he throws him over for a back-body drop landing KGB on the outside! Shane goes over to pin Swifty but barely gets a 1 count. Shane picks up Swifty and starts landing punches on him. Swifty ducks a punch and starts laying down punches of his own. Shane, like Swifty ducks a punch but with the momentum, Swifty spins around and Shane locks in a sleeper hold. Swifty is struggling to get out and he tries to reach the ropes but Shane wont let him. KGB climbs to the top rope and jumps and hits Swifty with a dropkick! Swifty falls back with Shane behind him setting up a pin! One... Two KGB runs and hits Swifty off of Shane.

Tex: That was a close one!

Duff: That could have been a quick match but KGB and his quickness stopped the pin!

KGB starts to stomp on Shane but Shane manages to grabs hold of KGB's leg. He stands up and lifts KGB's leg forcing him to fall to the ground. He tries to set up a boston crab but KGB pushes Shane away as Swifty is behind Shane as he falls back into him. He grabs Shane and flips him over and lands him on his knee with an inverted backbreaker to the gut!

Tex: What an innovative move!

Duff: He simply did a backbreaker to Shane but as Shane was turned away from him, he ended up doing a lifting gut-buster if you will.

Swifty throws Shane off of his knee and pays his attention towards KGB. They lock up in a collar elbow tie up. KGB is the lighter man but he gets main position in the tie up and forces Swifty into the corner. He kicks Swifty in the gut and uses alot of his energy to lift him onto the rope. KGB stands onto the second rope and grabs Swifty and attempts a superplex. Swifty is just to heavy and he starts to punch KGB in the gut. Shane west comes to his feet and grabs KGB's legs and goes underneath him. He goes for a powerbomb and KGB brings down Swifty with him!

Tex: Oh My God!

Duff: Who will get up first?

Swifty lands nastily on his neck as KGB tries to get up. Shane West is standing with help from the ropes. He runs at KGB who is starting to get up and lifts his legs up for the shining wizard but KGB grabs his legs and forces Shane down with the pin. One... Two... Kickout! Shane West managed to get out of it. KGB gets up and starts to stomp on the legs of Shane. Swifty comes at him from behind and hits a clothesline to the back of the neck. KGB falls and Swifty keeps on running but gets caught in an enziguiri by Shane West. West goes for the cover. One... Two... Kickout! Shane west gets up and grabs Swifty by his hair. He slams his head several times into the turnbuckle before hitting a spinning heel kick. He goes for the cover. One.. Two... Kickout KGB stops the cover.

Tex: Again, very close.

Duff: Who will walk away champion?

KGB and Shane West start to brawl and Shane West starts to lay down some serious strikes and runs off of the ropes and hits a dropkick the knee. KGB falls to his knees and Shane kicks him hard in the head a couple of times before pushing him over for the cover. One... two... Kickout! Shane West gets angrier and angrier and starts to hit KGB with closed fists and chokes him a couple of times. The referee tells him to stop and he gets up in the referees face. He then turns back to his opponent who is about to kick him. He roles outside of the ring.

Tex: It looks like Shane is finding it tough to retain his AWA TV title.

Duff: Yes it does look that way, he has been scouted well! What will he do now?

Shane west grabs his TV title from the outside of the ring. Meanwhile Swifty gets up and kicks KGB in the gut. He then throws him to the floor and bounces of the ropes and drosp down with a baseball slide dropkick pushing KGB to the floor. KGB gets up and Swifty grabs the top rope, pulls himself catapaulting over the top rope but KGB runs into the ring dodging the splash and Swifty lands hard on the outside padding. KGB looks out at Swifty but out of nowhere gets smacked in the back of the head with the TV title by Shane West! KGB falls as Shane holds his title high in the air!

Tex: Wait? He just got himself disqualified to retain!

Duff: So that is what he had to do to retain!

Stormy speaks from the outside of the ring as Shane turns to watch her announce he has won

Stormy Canyon: I am being told by officials with me now that the standard rules of a triple threat match do read that there are no disqualifications in a triple threat match! Therefore this match shall continue.

Shane west is so angry that he throws his title down on the canvas and starts shouting at Stormy Canyon. But out of his knowledge KGB is getting up from behind him and grabs him in a Full Nelson, he lifts him up and hits a sitout atomic drop hitting The Nuclear Bomb onto the TV title. KGB gets up and grabs Shane West's legs, he wraps his leags around and turn Shane over and locks in the Sharpshooter! Swifty slides in the ring and breaks the submission but it's to late, Shane has tapped!

KGB gets up and roles shane off of the title. He then picks the title up and celebrates as his theme music plays

Stormy Canyon: Here is your NEW AWA Television champion... KGB!!!!!!!!!

Tex: What a match right there with a new champion crowned!

Duff: Can we expect to see more great matches like this on the first Insomnia of 2011!?

Winner: KGB

As McVay disapears backstage the cameras follow him. He starts to make his way down the corridor to his locker room but before he reaches it he is met by a clothsline to the back of the head. Swifty falls to the floor and is repeatedly kicked to the head and mid-section. The camera zooms out to reveal Swiftys brother Conrad McVay. Conrad picks Swifty up by the hair and drags him into the nearest locker room. The cameras follow and Conrad is showen slamming a steel chair shut. Swifty is trying to get to his feet when Conrad smashes him over the back with the chair. He then cracks him over the back of the head while he is down and then again accross the back of his legs..

Conrad- You think your the greatest now brother? You think your a true champion now? You think your the New Era? There is only one New Era in this company and its the new Era of Anthony Phoenix and Conrad McVay. Your a fake, your nobody and your going to be removed from this company in the coming weeks. I garuntee it!

Conrad pulls the chair back behind his head once more but before he can connect with Swifty several AwA officials and security members come flying through the door and intervene. Conrad is removed from the room and Swifty is attended to. The show cuts to a commercial.

Renee Dupree & Masked Mangler vs. Chaos & Matthew Toddi vs. Sinful Obsession(c)

Tex: It’s been an interesting night so far here on our first show of 2011!

Duff: Next is the Tag Team Title Match too. Although I’m really thinking Sinful Obsession has this one in the bag. We have the two local pinheads versus Chaos and another pinhead versus them. Yeah, I’m not looking forward to this one…

Tex: At least one of us will call the action.

Duff: Nah, I’ll call the action. It’s just I don’t think there won’t be all that much of it!

As Duff finishes speaking and the Albany crowd waits for the combatants of this next match to appear, they’re shocked as “Until The Day I Die” by Story of the Year plays. From out of the back comes local hometown man and former wrestler Jay Gold wearing a pair of pants and a blazer. He waves briefly at his hometown crowd before making his way down the ramp and over towards the announce table. Tex stands up and greets Jay as he gets to the announce table while Duff just shakes his head and gets on his headset.

Duff: And speaking of pinheads…

Gold dons the spare headset and opens up a steel chair for himself and sits in it, responding to Duff’s comment.

Jay: Nice to see you again Duff. Just please, stop referring to yourself.

As he finishes saying this, “Bad To The Bone” by George Thurogood begins to play. The Masked Mangler walks out from the backstage area looking to the crowd showing off his muscles and pretends to apply his finisher, the Mangler, to an opponent. The fans boo and he argues back towards them for they are jealous of who he is. He gets into the ring ready to fight, also awaiting his tag team partner.

The French National anthem hits as the French flag is shown on the Titan Tron with Rene Pierre's name written in gold. He comes out to the ring, waving the French flag and waves it proudly in the faces of the fans, who start to boo him. He gets halfway down the entrance way where he addresses some fans before getting in the ring and putting the flag around the waist of Stormy Canyon as he tries to seduce her. He kisses her on the cheeks before walking to his corner, where he plants the flag on the steel ring post before turning to the Masked Mangler and nodding briefly. Both turn to the stage, awaiting the two teams that they’ll be facing as Stormy begins her announcing duties right as the arena lights go off and the titantron is a black screen with ‘TRUTH” on it and after a couple of seconds it fades away and ‘AXIOM’ appears on the screen in white letters. ‘Tear Away’ by Drowning Pool hits over the P.A system and the fans are already starting to boo wildly as Stormy’s voice cuts in.

Stormy: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the AWA Tag Team Championships! Coming to the ring, representing Axiom, Matthew Toddi and Chaos!!! Also already in the ring, the team of The Masked Mangler and Rene Pierre!

Chaos and Matthew Toddi walk out onto the entrance ramp and look at all the booing fans. They walk down the entrance ramp and they tear away some of the fans signs that have lines and crosses through the word Axiom. They get to the ring and Chaos climbs the steps as Toddi slides under the ropes, they then go up to the top ropes parallel from each other and stand there looking at the fans that are heavily booing them. They jump down, Chaos does some stretches by pulling the ropes and alternating is body position as Toddi practices his Maui Thai kicks as Rene and Mangler look towards the two members of Axiom.

Duff: I just noticed something. Hey Jay, didn’t Chaos beat you in an Ambulance Match years ago?

Jay: You called it. You should know. Anyways, I have no more ill will towards Chaos. Yes, he tried to kill me a few years back in GWA, but I don’t hold grudges anymore, period.

Duff: Well isn’t that swell.

Tex: And I have to be in the middle of you two. Anyways, let’s just get ready to call what should be a good match-up…that is when our current AWA tag team champions get out here…

As if on cue, the beginning of Sinful Obsession’s theme, “Uprising” by Muse begins to play.

"The paranoia is in bloom, the PR
The transmissions will resume
They'll try to push drugs
Keep us all dumbed down and hope that
We will never see the truth around
So come on!

Another promise, another scene, another
A package not to keep us trapped in greed
With all the green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined
So come on!

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious"

The pulsating beat of Muse's "Uprising" suddenly begins to play over the public address system of the arena and the crowd is on its feet as atop the stage appears the tag team of Sinful Obsession aka Gabriel and Despayre, accompanied by the enigmatic Synn. Gabriel raises his hands up to the rafters as Despayre holds his teddy bear Angel up for everyone to seeas Stormy Canyon announces their arrival.

Stormy: And they are the current AWA Tag Team Champioooons….Gabriel and Despayre…Sinful Obsessiooooon!!!

The group begins their descent down the ramp as the AWA Tag Team Titles can be seen around their waists and towards the squared circle as the multitude of fans reach out to them on all sides. Gabriel slaps a hand or two along the way but his intent is solely on the ring ahead while Despayre holds Angel's paws and uses them to slap the hands reaching out to him, avoiding the touch himself. Synn hops up onto the ring apron and holds the ropes open for both of his men to step through and then sets foot inside himself. Synn then takes both men and escorts them to center ring where the lights dim down. He then sets foot in front of them and points right at the pair and an explosion of red pyros go off.

Synn then brings Gabriel and Despayre back to their corner to wait for the start of the match.

The referee comes over to the champions and requests that the tag team titles be handed over. Both Gabriel and Despayre hand their belts over and the referee holds them up into the air, showing them to all three teams and to all those watching. The referee assigned to the match then slides them out to the ringside attendants before calling for the bell to get things underway.

Tex: And there’s the bell. Now to find out who will be starting for each team. Looks like Mangler will be in there as Rene is standing on the apron…

Duff: Pfft, it won’t matter who starts. Champs are going to retain. Period, end of story.

Jay: I’ve never liked bias. So I’m going to call the action and I’m not going to pick a winner.

Mangler stands in the ring as Chaos tells Toddi to start things off for Axiom. For Sinful Obsession, Gabriel finally decides to go out to the apron, leaving Despayre to start off this title defense for them. The crowd doesn’t know what to think as all three competitors exchange glances with one another before Toddi heads right for Despayre, tackling him straight down to the canvas. Toddi begins to deliver some heavy lefts and rights but Mangler comes over and pulls Toddi off of Despayre. Despayre rolls away and begins to breathe, looking to his corner to see where his security bear is. Mangler takes Toddi and whips him into the ropes. Toddi comes off the ropes and Mangler takes Toddi over with an armdrag takeover. He doesn’t leave Toddi on the mat for long though as he brings him back up part of the way before applying a waist lock. Toddi struggles to get out of it, even trying to pull himself towards the Axiom corner. However Mangler pulls harder and drags him to his corner where he releases the hold and tags in Rene.

Jay: And this match about to get a taste of French.

Duff: Obviously you’re new at this announcing gig.

Jay: Not really. I guess it’s because I’m used to calling matches…without you!

Tex: Alright Jay. Enough bombing on Duff. Let’s see what Rene has to offer. Smart move by the way with Mangler and Rene executing that tag and not allowing Toddi to get out of their corner.

Jay: Yeah. It’s a very popular tag team tactic. Never gets old.

Rene takes a hold of Toddi and pushes him up against the turnbuckle. Rene delivers a few kicks to the legs of Toddi, taking his legs out from under him. Rene then takes Toddi up and places his feet on the middle rope before dropping his head straight to the canvas.

Tex: What IMPACT!
