City and State/Country: Stockholm, Sweden
Arena: Ericsson Globe
Tour: Ur-A-Peon

OPENING

We go live inside the Ericsson Globe from Stockholm, Sweden. The bad Dying Fetus is on the stage and they begin performing their song "Homicidal Retribution".

Lost my faith in justice
Time does not heal this pain
Defiled my existence
Recurring nightmare
There's no consolation
The awful memories
Constant mind coercion
Instinctive vengeance
I have nothing left to lose now
Only time, regret and anger
Pain to last a hundred lifetimes
Hatred burning, love extinct
Compound insult of bullshit humanism
Misplaced rights, inflame my rage
Vacant cause, offender the victim
Fuck that worthless piece of shit
As long as you live on this earth
Rage unsatisfied
Memories dishonored
Retribution!!!

Giving hardened criminals
Preferential treatment
Settlement, live in prison
Better than you deserve
Jury of your peers, unable to do the job
Obliged by procedure, evidence examination
Now I'm coming for you, there will be no mistrial
Citizen retaliation, the mode of your demise
Moral speculation, some other poor bastard's life
The system has fucked up, left this hollow void
There will be no comfort, this sickness is terminal
Semblance of justice, infuriating lies
Lies arquitted, guilt answered, you will not escape
Cold, my revenge and my blood
Hate, nothing can stop it now
Death, the only end I accept
Hell, punishment I require
Curse, execrate, I must kill
Pain, I inflict merciless
Scream, piercing cries, agony

You should have pled guilty or killed yourself
Unshakable conviction, is all I have to live for
Excruciating terror, the violations you delight in
Useless human excrement, you deserve a life of shit
Make you suffer ruthlessness, I cannot relinquish the honor
Soul I condemn, fucking dead
Nothing will ever be made right again
The path of damnation I hasten you on my way
Every day you lived from then is one more day you owe me
If killing you destroys myself, I wouldn't have it any other way
Fine line between honor and horror, my every action justified
Innocence destroyed, needs anguish to cleanse impurity
Temporary insanity, obeys a singular purpose
Your death row is here and now, the only righteous ending
Die and die again, as I cut and mutilate
You are fucking worthless, I don't give a fuck about you
Blood your insides spayed, placates my hostility
End my days a killer, stripped of everything that mattered

The band finishes it up and breaks all their instruments before heading backstage. Pyro begins firing off all over the Globe and mutli-colored lights flicker like crazy. The lights in the Ericsson Globe come on and the Swedish fans are going ape shit as SFT brings to the world yet another international pay per view. We go ringside to Randy White and John Cartwright.

RW: HELLO!!!!!!!! SFT IS BACK ON PAY PER VIEW AND TONIGHT IS ALL ABOUT....

Randy and John look at each other and then into the camera.

RW & JC: RETRIBUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RW: Indeed it will be all about Retribution. Retribution for Josh Konnely.

JC: Well nothing was a bigger shock than Kyle Murphy turning on Josh Konnely and joining Divine Intervention.

RW: How about Chris Titan, a member of the over-looked RWF, as he fights for the National Title?

JC: The RWF guys are some of the hardest workers in this company but everyone over-looks them as chumps instead of the champs they are. For Chris Titan it may be more about respect than Retribution.

RW: Rayn takes on Switchblade in what could be a classic match for the ages.

JC: Well it should be but then again that's only on paper. The bottomline with that is ever since Switchblade lost to Gary Mac at What Dreams May Come he has been looking for Retribution and no matter who he sees it seems to be Gary Mac. We've known for quite some time now that Switchy is mentally unstable but he has finally broken down like anything made here in Sweden.

RW: Nirvana versus Redd for the Hardcore Title in a Crown of Thorns Match.

JC: Randy, this match isn't about the Hardcore Title or saving that division. This match is about a helluva lot more than everyone wants to believe. And in the ever dangerous and bloody Crown of Thorns match lord only knows what will become of these two guys. All I know is heavy who wears the crown.

RW: Sean Lane takes on Jack Jones and Twilight for the vacant Tag Team Titles.

JC: This match isn't about Retribution for Sean Lane toward Jack and Twilight, but more so toward the boss, Anthony Jesus. Ever since Sean Lane did what he did at No Escape a couple months ago Anthony Jesus has made it his intent to put Sean Lane through hell and he has via numerous handicap matches. Sean can gain lots of Retribution by walking away as the sole holder of both Tag Team Titles.

RW: Then it's Hell in a Cell time and Hell Hath No Fury like a legend scorned.

JC: Nightwolf, Tony Snyder, and the entire RWF have been trying their best to take out Big T and they even went as far as to bring in Kelsey who was his nurse a few months back at the very end of 2010. Big T had some rough matches and needed some personal aid. And of course the Florence Nightingale effect happened and Big T fell for her and harder than he's ever fell for any other woman in his life. But what she did in Las Vegas was wrong and some guys would have never ever forgave her but Big T wears his heart on his sleeve at times and he knows he's taking a chance with her again but he has gone through alot to gain her freedom from the RWF, and that includes agreeing to this Hell in a Cell match here tonight against Tony Snyder. You talk about Retribution...Big T will get his ten fold...or the old man will go down in a bloody mess.

RW: And in the main event of the night, its all on the line.

JC: The 2011 King of the DeathMatch crown, the SFT World Heavyweight Title, pride, and the ability to say "I Beat You!" are all on the line. And whether it's Lionel Kingston or Gary Mac one man will Fall From Grace and gain the surpremy Retribution.

RW: Like I said, tonight is all about Retribution and some will get what they seek and for others... well not so much.

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

The camera cuts to the backstage, where all the staff scurry around to keep the show running smoothly. The camera-man catches Johnny Legend walking down the hallway. He continues to walk, checking the tape around his wrists, as he makes his way to the cover that separates the backstage to the crowd. He stops, and stares down the black cover. The crowd is somewhat silent, as they watch on the titantron of Johnny Legend standing there. Right when Johnny Legend turns around, the crowd erupts in cheers! He hears this, and looks directly into the camera with his trademark smirk plastered across his face. He stands there in silence for the crowd noise to lower a little.

Johnny Legend: You hear that?

He says, as he points towards the black cover and to the crowd. The crowd erupts, once again.

Johnny Legend: That is the sound of thousands of loyal fans. And who are they cheering for?

He stops and raises his hand to his ear. The crowd begins to chant Legend's name.

Johnny Legend: That's right. They cheer for yours truly! This is the time where everything will turn around for me. This is the time where I show my true form. This ... Is ... My ... Time.

Johnny Legend stops and pushes the camera back. His music begins to play, as he walks over to the cover...

Match Number One
EMERSON vs. KENNY ROGERS vs. KRIS CHAMBERS vs. LUKAS KNIGHT vs. JOHNNY LEGEND
Fatal Five-Way Match

The camera cuts to Robyn in the ring.

Robyn: This is your opening match of the evening, and it is a FATAL FIVE WAY match scheduled for one fall!

As the aggressive sounds of "Break Stuff" by Limp Bizkit blares through the arena, a man who appears to be country singer Kenny Rogers comes down the aisle. He finishes off a bottle of Jack Daniels whiskey and smashes it over his own head making his way to the ring.

Robyn: First making his way to the ring, from Houston, Texas and weighing in at 267 pounds, representing The Dangerous Alliance...KENNY ROGERS!

As Kenny aggressively removes his flannel sleeveless shirt he tosses it to the ground and starts shouting at the fans, mocking them and making rude gestures as his music fades.

RW: And Kenny is staying as classy as ever.

JC: You don't need class Randy, you just need to kick ass! This five way match is going to be crazy, and the madness won't end until there's only one winner!

RW: The crowd sure seems fired up for it.

When the lights go out, bright lights begin to flash throughout the arena. The beat to. "Psychosocial" by Slipknot begins playing out the speakers of the arena. Kris Chambers walks out onto the stage looking up into the lights. After embracing the crowd's noise Chambers walk's down the aisle heading down to the ring.

Robyn: From Athens, Georgia and weighing in at 230 pounds, "No Gimmicks Needed"...KRIS CHAMBERS!

As soon as Chambers reaches ringside, he reaches up to the middle rope and pulls himself onto the apron and leaps into the ring. Chambers walks around the ring then stretches before the match begins, his eyes locked on Kenny while his music fades.

RW: Chambers, a former National and Hardcore champion, is going to be a perfect fit for a match that mixes both the technical and the extreme sides of professional wrestling.

JC: Yeah, but has he ever met anyone as unpredictable as Kenny Rogers? How do you prepare for someone like that?

RW: And there are three other guys for him to worry about too.

"The Beer Song" by Psychostik hits and Emerson makes his way to the ring, throwing cans of beers to the fans as they chug them and smile and yell.

Robyn: From Baytown, Texas and weighing in at 240 pounds...EMERSON EMBRY!

Emerson tosses his last can of beer before walking up the steps and stepping into the ring. He goes up to the ring ropes, leans against them, and points to the crowd as they continue to cheer for him and his music fades.

RW: Emerson has always been a fan favorite, and that still applies to this match. He'll be looking to pull another big win in this five man match.

JC: He had beaten Big T weeks back, but was screwed by the staff! If I were him I'd get mad as Hell and beat some heads in.

RW: That was a great match, and though the ending was controversial, I think both men came out winners in that match.

JC: Well ain't that convenient for you to say, Mr. Goodie-two-shoes!

The transmission on the titan tron reads:

"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live. But Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the son of GOD. Who loved me and gave himself for me."

Then it fades away as the light's start to flicker as "The Art of Breaking" by Thousand Foot Krutch hits the pa system's air waves. Both sides of the stage explode with pyro as Lukas Knight walks out onto the stage with a hooded coat that falls all the way down to his feet. Standing in the middle of the stage, he tosses the coat off backwards walking downward to the ring.

Robyn: From Chicago, Illinois and weighing in at 222 pounds, "The Infamous Rock Star"...LUKAS KNIGHT!

Paying no attention to his surroundings, Lukas jumps right up on the apron and leaps over the top rope. The pa system fades as he awaits the bell along with the rest.

RW: Lukas...well, he's here at least.

JC: Maybe he's the silent but deadly type. He makes sure his presence isn't known until it's too late.

RW: Did you just compare him to a fart?

JC: Are you saying he stinks?

RW: ....let's move on.

"Miseria Cantare" by AFI softly creeps into the arena. The crowd stands on their feet, awaiting the sign of Johnny Legend. On the titan-tron, we see Legend's head titled downwards as the song continues. Slowly, the head comes up to show Legends' face as the song kicks in. "Legend" flashes in front of his face, as golden fireworks go off near the top of the ramp. Johnny Legend comes walking out from the back.

Robyn: And finally, from Detroit, Michigan and weighing in at 250 pounds, he's "A Cut Above The Rest"...JOHNNY LEGEND!

The crowd boos as Johnny Legend walks down the ramp, not paying attention to them, he continues as some fans give him middle fingers and shouting unkind words at him. He walks up the stairs to the ring and goes in. Looking at the four other men in the match he simply waves them off before standing next to Emerson. The two eyeball one another and talk trash as Johnny's music fades.

RW: And Legend is already looking to make trouble with Emerson.

JC: Those two have been back and forth all week, and it's safe to say that they're not the best of friends right now.

RW: Or ever for that matter. But like I said before, there's more than just one opponent in that ring. Legend needs to have eyes in all directions.

JC: That would be a cool superpower.

RW: Focus, Johnny.

As Robyn exits the ring referee Allen Kain steps inside and calls for the bell. It rings, and the match is official. Kenny, Kris, and Luka immediately back away to their separate corners of the ring. Legend and Emerson, meanwhile, are still mouthing off to one another. Johnny notices the other three waiting, and smirks. He pushes Emerson into the center of the ring and watches as the other three men, like a pack of lions, attack the unsuspecting Emerson and gang up on him with a flurry of punches and kicks that send him to the ground. Johnny just watches from a distance and wipes his hands clean of Emerson.

JC: Well played by Mr. Legend! He fed Emerson to the wolves with a single push.

RW: I don't think this was what Emerson had in mind going into this match. Now it's starting to look like a four on one assault!

After the initial beating Kris gets Emerson to his feet and delivers a series of chops to the chest. When he finishes he whips Emerson to the ropes and Kenny is there catch him with a spear. Lukas then grabs Emerson and connects with a belly to belly suplex. Emerson rolls out of the ring and the three men celebrate eliminating Emerson from the equation. Legend, however, adds himself in by clotheslining both Kenny and Lukas from behind and dropkicking Kris into the ropes. Johnny runs towards Kris and tosses him over the top rope and to the floor. He then waits for Lukas to get up, and when he does he grabs him and drops him with a DDT. Johnny rolls back up to his feet, kicks a rising Kenny in the gut and drops a double arm DDT. Legend gets to his feet and points out his masterpiece of destruction to the fans as they both cheer and boo him.

JC: WOW! Johnny just took out all four men with ease.

RW: Well he never really took out Emerson, he-

JC: Purely a matter of semantics, Randy.

RW: Do you even know what that word means?

JC: It means Johnny Legend is awesome.

RW: Good Lord...

Legend makes a cover on Kenny.

Kain: 1...2...

But Rogers kicks out. He then goes over to Lukas and makes the cover on him.

Kain: 1...2...

But Knight kicks out as well. Frustrated, Legend kicks Lukas out of the ring and goes over to Kenny. He hoists Kenny up, leans him against the ropes and pummels him with lefts and rights until Kain tells him to back off before the five count. Instead of backing off Johnny simply whips Kenny into a turnbuckle, runs right behind him, and upon contact with the turnbuckle Kenny receives a running clothesline that nearly knocks his boots off. Johnny then pulls him off, hoists him up over his head, and drops him with a Death Valley Driver. Legend gets up and prepares to make a cover on Rogers when suddenly, Emerson comes flying in from the turnbuckle parallel to Legend and connects with a missile dropkick that knocks Johnny down.

RW: And Emerson returns with a vengeance!

JC: I thought he was out cold, Randy!

RW: You thought wrong, partner, and Emerson doesn't look too pleased with Johnny!

Emerson taunts Johnny to get up, and when he does Emerson grabs him and connects with an inverted atomic drop followed by a vertical suplex. Emerson goes over to a turnbuckle and leaps up to the second level pad. He then hops off and lands a diving elbow right to the sternum. He hooks the leg and covers Legend.

Kain: 1...2...

But Chambers jumps in and breaks the count. Kris grabs Emerson by the head and pounds on his back with his forearms. He then stretches Emerson's arm back and applies an abdominal stretch submission. Kain checks on Emerson to see if he submits, but the former National champion shakes his head refusing to quit. Chambers pulls harder, and yells at Emerson to give up. But before Emerson has the chance to do so, Lukas appears on the apron, springboards off, and connects with a facebuster to Chambers forcing him to release the hold on Emerson. Knight gets to his feet and looks pumped up.

JC: And Lukas is back in business!

RW: But how long will he stay open?

JC: That was stupid...

Lukas pulls Chambers up to his feet, lifts him up and snaps him back down with an Alabama slam. He drops down and covers Kris.

Kain: 1...2...

But now Rogers is back up, and he connects with a Yakuza kick to the back of Lukas' head. Kenny squeals with delight as he lifts up Lukas, carries him sideways and drops him with a high angle falling powerslam.

RW: Fold ‘em for Lukas!

JC: Well that didn't last long.

Lukas clutches the back of his neck and rolls out of the ring while Kenny celebrates his small victory. He turns around to grab one of the other guys, but winds up with a superkick right to the chin courtesy of Johnny Legend.

RW: And Johnny hits The Resolution!

JC: It's academic at this point

Johnny goes to make a cover, but Emerson is able to stop him in time by kicking him in the temple.

JC: Well, you know...minus the whole "Emerson" thing.

Emerson grabs Johnny and gets him to his feet. He lifts Johnny up and body slams him down. Johnny gets up again and gets knocked down again, this time with a spinebuster. Emerson notices Chambers getting up and charging towards him, but unlike before Emerson is prepared and he back body drops Chambers up and over him. Chambers gets up again and goes for a running clothesline, but Emerson ducks, grabs Kris from behind and drops him with the inverted DDT.

RW: One and done for Chambers!

JC: These guys are getting knocked off one by one!

Emerson clutches his chest and catches his breath as Kris rolls out of the ring. This gives Johnny a chance to recuperate as well. Once Legend is up, he meets eye to eye with Emerson once again. The two trash talk a little bit more before they start brawling in the center of the ring. Soon Emerson has Legend struggling as he packs more power into his punches. Johnny is knocked into the ropes. Emerson grabs Johnny and irish whips him. He goes for a back body drop like he did to Kris, but Legend is able to stop himself in time and he kicks Emerson square in the face. Emerson covers his nose leaving Johnny an opening to grab Emerson from behind, lift him, and drop him with an inverted version of the Death Valley Driver!

RW: Oooooo...that HAD to hurt.

JC: Now I think it really IS academic!

Johnny looks down at Emerson, grabs his legs, and applies a Texas Cloverleaf. The fans chant for Emerson to make the rope break, and he crawls closer and closer to the ropes. After a few seconds Emerson is mere inches away from the ropes. He goes to grab them, but Johnny denies him this opportunity by pulling him all the way back to the center of the ring. In addition, Legend elevates the Clover Leaf and locks it in tight. With nowhere else to go and the pain being unbearable Emerson is just about ready to tap out when suddenly Kenny Rogers comes running back in and he kicks Legend off of Emerson.

RW: And Rogers returns for more!

With Legend dazed Rogers looks to the hurt Emerson, then looks to the turnbuckle, and a massive grin appears on his face. He points to the turnbuckle and the fans boo, but he mistakes it for cheers and climbs it to the top. He looks down at Emerson from the top turnbuckle pad, leaps, and goes for a big time body splash, but Emerson manages to roll away in time and Kenny hits nothing but mat. Kenny gets up clutching his enlarged gut. Before he can recover Legend spots him in his general direction and superkicks him in the chin once again!

RW: ANOTHER kick to Kenny. His brain must be scrambled by now!

JC: You mean it wasn't already?

RW: Good point.

Legend drops down on Kenny and hooks the leg for the cover. Emerson tries to break the count, but his injured legs won't allow him to move quick enough.

Kain: 1...2...3!

Referee Kain calls for the bell and awards the match to Johnny.

RW: And there it is! Kenny just walked in at the wrong time, and Johnny pulls out the impressive victory.

JC: I knew he could do it! They don't call him a Legend for nothing!

RW: That's his name, Johnny. He's not ACTUALLY a legend, not yet at least!

JC: Says you, Mr. Jealous-two-shoes.

RW: Enough with the two shoes!

Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, your winner...JOHNNY LEGEND!

"Miseria Cantare" plays once more as Johnny continues to celebrate while Emerson slides out of the ring clutching his legs in the process. The other wrestlers, after waking up, make their way to the back, and eventually Legends leaves as well leaving only a knocked out Kenny Rogers lying in the ring.

Winner: JOHNNY LEGEND via Pinfall

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

Kyle Murphy is standing backstage with Rob Ragan, who is dressed in a suit and holding a microphone.

Rob Ragan: Kyle Murphy, recently we saw you assist Gary Mac in defeating Josh Konnely in what appeared to be an accident. Then you shocked the world by aligning yourself with Gary Mac and Drake Drummonds, Divine Intervention. Your betrayal basically spelled the death of Revelation and caused you and Josh to be stripped of the tag team championships. We have not heard from you since that night, so what is going on? What were you thinking?

Kyle Murphy: Well, Rob...

Before Murphy can answer, Josh Konnely enters the picture. He is smiling.

Josh Konnely: Hi, Murph.

Kyle Murphy: What are you so happy about? Don't you know you're about to face The Standard? The High King?

Josh Konnely: Well, I'm happy because I just came from Lars Adams' office. You know, the President of SFT? When you betrayed Revelation for Divine Intervention, you didn't only screw me. You screwed Lars also. Revelation was his project, his power.

Kyle Murphy: So what? You want to know why I left? You got soft, Josh. And Lars Adams calls himself President, but he's got no power. Revelation was just a waste of time, holding me back. I'm done carrying dead weight like you around.

Josh Konnely: Alright, well I've just got a little news for you.

Kyle Murphy: Oh, and what would that be?

Josh Konnely: By order of President Lars Adams, our match tonight will now be a DUMPSTER MATCH. This is one night when I won't mind taking out THE TRASH.

Murphy's smug expression turns to a look of disgust, and the scene fades to ringside.

Match Number Two
KYLE MURPHY vs. JOSH KONNELY
Dumpster Match

JC: A dumpster match?! Kyle Murphy is going to have to face Josh Konnely in a DUMPSTER match?!

RW: The Superior One sure didn't look too happy about that development.

"Let It Roll" by Divide The Day hits the loudspeakers and Lars Adams walks out on stage. Dave Kilmister pushes a dumpster out onto the stage, and Lars assists him in rolling it down to ringside. With the dumpster in place, Dave and Lars join John and Randy at the announce table.

"Ard Ri Na hEireann" by Cruachan fills the arena and the lights glow green. Gold pyro explodes at the stage, and the ramp glows orange. Kyle Murphy marches out onto the stage to huge heat and beats on his chest. He holds his arms up, then begins to walk down the aisle. Murphy swaggers down the ramp, a confident grin on his face. At ringside, he climbs the ring steps and into the ring. Kyle throws his arms out to his sides to the cheers and jeers of the crowd.

"Awake And Alive" by Skillet begins to play across the loudspeakers, drawing a huge pop. The lights begin to strobe and heavy white smoke pumps into the entrance area, filling the whole stage. Josh Konnely runs out onto the stage right through the smoke. Josh stops at the top of the ramp and hangs his head, holding his hands out at his sides in a crucifixion type pose. Konnely lifts his head slowly, his eyes turning skyward, and he points to the heavens with both hands. Josh marches down the aisle, stopping once again at the bottom of the ramp. Konnely whispers something and then crosses himself. After doing this he sprints toward the ring and slides inside. Josh jumps to his feet and makes the "Father, Son and Holy Ghost" cross hand gesture.

The bell rings and Josh Konnely charges at Kyle Murphy, but runs right into a big boot. Murphy lifts Konnely in a military press and then lets him drop to the canvas.

JC: Look at the devastating power of The High King.

RW: Josh Konnely might only be a middleweight at a buck eighty five, but there's no denying the freakish strength of Kyle Murphy.

Konnely rises to his feet, double over in pain. Murphy lifts the "Warrior of Light" onto his shoulders in a fireman's carry, quickly driving him to the mat with the Blood Eagle. Kyle drags Josh's nearly lifeless body to his feet and sets him up for the Seven Curses.

Dave Kilmister jumps up from the announce table and hops onto the ring apron. Kyle Murphy shoves Josh Konnely to the mat and begins to argue with his former Revelation friend and ally. Slowly Konnely rises to his feet, using Kilmister's distraction as a chance to recover. Josh runs at Kyle from behind and hits a jumping sleeper slam.

JC: Lux Aeterna!

RW: Sweetness!

Kyle Murphy turns over onto his stomach, holding his neck. Josh Konnely backs away slowly, setting up for something else. Kyle gets to a knee and Josh runs right at him, connecting with a shining Yakuza kick [Drive-By Kick].

RW: And he calls that the Comatose!

JC: Josh Konnely has taken control off the distraction by Dave Kilmister!

Josh Konnely locks Kyle Murphy in the Beautiful Light [Arm Triangle Choke]. Lars Adams leaves the announce table and circles back to the dumpster. Adams throws open the lid of the dumpster, signaling for Konnely to end it. Josh releases his submission hold and begins to slowly drag the much larger Kyle Murphy towards the ropes, where the dumpster waits on the outside. Konnely stands Murphy up near the ropes and shoves him over the top rope. Kyle lands on the apron and Josh backs away, measuring him up again.

JC: Kyle Murphy is right on the brink of going in that dumpster!

RW: The Superior One is going in the trash!

Josh Konnely makes one final run at Kyle Murphy, nailing him on the jaw with a big boot. Murphy falls off the apron and directly into the dumpster.

JC: Yakuza kick! That Player's Boot just trashed Kyle Murphy!

RW: Finish it, Josh! Lock him up!

Josh Konnely climbs out of the ring and slams the lid shut. Lars Adams hands Konnely a lock, and Josh locks his former tag team championship partner in the dumpster. The bell rings.

Robyn Byrne: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match... JOSH KONNELY!

"Awake And Alive" by Skillet hits again as Dave Kilmister helps Josh Konnely roll the dumpster back up the entrance ramp.

JC: Kyle Murphy sure paid one Hell of a price for his sins here tonight at Retribution.

RW: He sure did. No amount of Divine Intervention could save him from the wrath of Revelation, either.

Winner: JOSH KONNELY via Putting Kyle Murphy inside the Dumpster

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

The camera cuts to the locker room. We see SwitchBlade staring into a mirror attached to his locker door. He has a glassy stare, the same kind that he had before his attacks on Konnely and Legend.

SwitchBlade: You're going down, Gary. You're all going down. One by one.

SwitchBlade places a hand on the mirror and leans closer, as if listening to someone speak. For some reason SwitchBlade starts to get angry. Suddenly, he raises a fist and punches the mirror smashing it to pieces. SwitchBlade's face changes from anger to sadness.

SwitchBlade: I'm sorry, Gary. I didn't mean it. I was only doing my job. You've got to believe me. I did it for US!

SwitchBlade suddenly starts laughing. He takes one of the pieces of mirror and scratches his forehead with it. A small amount of blood drips from his forehead.

SwitchBlade: That looks good on you, Gary. That looks DAMN good...

IN-RING SEGMENT

"Indigenous Holocaust" by Wahwahtay Benais hit's the PA system. A chorus of confused cheers and boos erupt. People are confused as to who this maybe until a red skinned figure blasts his way out from behind the curtain. People start to boo him and Alexander laughs. He walks down to the ring holding a mic in his hand. Signaling to cut the music; he raises it to his lips.

Hayes: Look at what we got here. It looks like we have peons in Finland. What city is it we're in again? Aw, who the hell fucking cares anyway. It's just like you people to boo a natural living piece of history. Your education system probably doesn't even teach Native American history. That's just plain sad. I believe that every country in this place we call home should be taught about my people.

Hayes lowers the mic to let the whole conversation sink into everyone in attendance. Again the chorus of boos spread the arena.

HAYES: THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! You people don't understand a goddamn thing about what it means to be Native American. It was your ancestors that stole my land, and got us drunk so we could sell it to you. And now here we are in SFT Land doing a show to entertain fuckheads that don't understand one iota of the real world. Yeah, you may boast the greatest education system in the world, but how does that explain your culture? It doesn't. Your culture makes me sick. It's a wonder why God even lets you exist. But enough of that. I'm here to speak about one thing and one thing only.

Hayes turns to the entrance. The camera rolls around and is staring Hayes in front of the face. He becomes angry.

Hayes: The reason for my sudden departure comes from the top. That's right. They threw away my very potential by having me grouped with one of the most masochistic motherfuckers we have seen in a long time. That's right. I'm talking about YOU Nirvana. While you were acting so high and mighty, I was putting together a plan. You see, that plan was to destroy you one by one. Your little group of misfits didn't even stand a chance against the new generation of superstars coming into this business. What it all boils down to is one simple thing, and that was your need for fame and glory. You just can't stay away can you Nirvana? No. You're like all those other old-timers here in SFT. The likes of Twilight, Redd, and so on can't just give it up. You see, you're all frightened by people like me. People who have pure talent and athleticism. While you're sitting in the back wondering why ole Alex Hayes is giving it the old college try; I'm standing here formulating plans to get rid of you once and for all.

Hayes starts to laugh.

Hayes: Nirvana, your time is coming to an end. The Creator has deemed me worthy to end your pathetic little existence in this company. Heh, I don't even need back up to do it. I can do this all by my self unlike all these other peons who are too damn lazy to get a job. And even if they do have a job, their degrees probably aren't worth shit. They're all just like you Nirvana, rotting and wasting their lives. And for what? All for that fame and glory? Possibly that one little promotion that they've been waiting for? You know it'll never happen. So why try to succeed. None of you will ever be as good as me. Just like that Nirvana. All his success and triumphs mean nothing. He's just like the rest of SFT. ALL WORTHLESS!! You know it, I know it. And when it's all said and done, you'll realize that I'm Alexander Hayes and I'M BETTER THEN YOU!!!

Hayes tosses down the mic and exits the ring, heading up the ramp and then backstage.

RW: Well it looks like Nirvana has another enemy.

JC: He better watch his back before someone truly Embraces Nirvana in a way he won't like.

Uncomfortable long pause......................

Match Number Three
CHRIS TITAN vs. DRAKE DRUMMONDS (c)
Standard Match - National Title

RW: Up next is the National Title match between Drake Drummonds and Chris Titan.

JC: This is the first time RWF have faced off against Divine Intervention.

The arena lights become dim. "Go hard, today Can't worry about the past 'cause that ye-sterday I'm a put it on the line 'cause it's my time Hey, hey, hey, hey Gotta stay on my grind 'cause it's my time (hey) My time (hey), my time (hey) If you're with me let me hear you say, (come on, come on) My my, my my, if you're with me, let me hear you say My my, my my, oh, it's my time" The song's entrance blares through the sound system as the lights begin to flicker swiftly. The arena becomes pitch black for a few seconds. The lights come back on & Drake is standing at the entrance with his back to the ring & arms spread out. Pyro goes off along the border of the entrance ramp. He finally turns around, extremely hyped & begins walking down the ramp. He slides into the ring & spins around. He climbs one of the turnbuckles & raises both arms in the arm.

JC: Here is the current National Champion.

RW: He defeated Emerson for the gold last month and this is his first title defence.

Chris Titan lets out a yell as he stops on the ramp, glaring at the crowd and pacing to the ring focusing on his opponent. Chris slides into the ring and has to be held back by the ref and his manager until the bell rings.

RW: Titan is raring to go at Drake.

JC: Hold on here comes Gary Mac and Kyle Murphy.

Mac and Murphy walk down the ramp and leap onto the apron Chris Titan looks worried as Drake stands there with a huge grin on his face. The bell hasn't rang so the match hasn't started Mac and Murphy step into the ring and walk over to Chris Titan Drake comes up behind them to lay an assault on Titan and bam The Real Deal to the face of Drake Drummonds.

JC: What the hell Gary just laid out Drake Drummonds the first member of D.I.

RW: I am totally confused with this.

Titan smiles but that is wiped from his face as Kyle Murphy hits A Buaidh on Titan and both competitors are down, Mac shouts at the referee to ring the bell and the ref does out of fear. Gary pulls Chris Titan over Drake Drummonds and the ref drops to count.

REF: 1...2...3

RW: Gary Mac just cost Drake the National title right here tonight.

JC: I guess Drake has now been relieved of his post in Divine Intervention.

Mac and Murphy walk to the back as the fans boo what has happened.

Winner: CHRIS TITAN via Pinfall

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

The camera cuts to interviewer Amanda Summers standing in front of a wall with the SFT logo painted on it, and a television monitor on the upper right side.

Amanda: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome former SFT World Heavyweight Champion...SWITCHBLADE!

The fans boo as SwitchBlade appears on camera in his ring attire. He glares at the camera, his eyes transfixed on something nobody else can see. Amanda nervously asks the first question.

Amanda: So SwitchBlade...how do you feel about facing Rayn later tonight.

SwitchBlade suddenly snaps his head at Amanda, the same expression on his face.

SwitchBlade: Rayn...Rayn...I don't know any Rayn.

Amanda: But...Rayn is your opponent tonight.

SwitchBlade: I'm not facing anyone named Rayn, Amanda Summers, backstage interviewer for SFT.

Amanda: T-then...who ARE you facing?

SwitchBlade: Isn't it obvious? I'm facing Gary. I'm ALWAYS facing Gary. And tonight, I'm going to beat Gary. I'm going to crush their dreams. And when I do, I'll prove to each and every one of you that I'm not washed up. I'm no HAS BEEN. I am one of the best wrestlers in this company, and I will make things go back to the way they once were. And I'll do this by winning week after week after week, one Gary at a time. Nobody's dream will ever come true. Do you understand what i'm saying to you, Amanda Summers, backstage interviewer for SFT?

Amanda: Uhh....but Gary's facing Lionel tonight and-

SwitchBlade violently snatches the microphone away from Amanda.

SwitchBlade: DON'T ARGUE WITH ME! DON'T YOU EVER ARGUE WITH ME!

SwitchBlade drops the microphone and reaches for Amanda's throat. She screams and makes a run for it. SwitchBlade stops, looks down at his outstretched arm, and turns to the camera one last time.

SwitchBlade: I have...so many dreams to crush.

Match Number Four
RAYN vs. SWITCHBLADE
Standard Match - #1 Contender to National Title

"Dragonfly" by Shaman's Harvest plays as SwitchBlade steps through the curtain to a chorus of cheers and boos. Once at the top of the ramp, he removes his sunglasses and tosses them to the side. He walks past the fans ignoring their presence. He slides under the ring ropes, picks himself up, and stands in one corner of the ring once in awhile stretching his arms and legs.

"Line In The Sand" by Motorhead hits the loudspeakers and green and white lights begin to strobe around the arena. Rayn does not appear on the stage.

JC: Wait a minute, what's going on here?

Suddenly Rayn slides into the ring behind SwitchBlade, having jumped the security barrier near the announce table.

RW: What the?! Rayn came right through the crowd.

From behind Rayn grabs SwitchBlade's wrist and spins him around, pulling him right into a shortarm lariat. The bell rings as Rayn stands over the fallen SwitchBlade.

RW: This isn't right!

JC: I think it's safe to say he can't be at one hundred percent after that brutal assault before the match.

Rayn grabs SwitchBlade and sets him up for the Epiphany. SwitchBlade counters out with a back body drop. Rayn staggers to his feet and SwitchBlade takes him right back down with a running STO.

JC: But here comes SwitchBlade!

RW: It's like he's spring-loaded!

SwitchBlade "helps" Rayn to his feet, but then lifts him with a flapjack into an implant DDT.

RW: Beautiful execution!

JC: Rayn's in some serious trouble!

SwitchBlade signals for the end early and starts practically begging Rayn to stand back up.

Rayn gets up slowly, and SwitchBlade kicks him in the gut.

JC: SwitchBlade!

RW: Deep Cut! This has to be over!

SwitchBlade smirks as he turns over onto Rayn for the cover.

1...

2...

3!

JC: Well, Rayn disappoints yet again.

RW: I'm sick of Rayn anyway.

Winner: SWITCHBLADE via Pinfall

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

We go backstage to Nirvana in a locker room, staring into a mirror but it looks like he is looking directly into the camera.

Nirvana: I've been sitting in the back thinking about what drives me. It's not the world championship. It's not a match with that sneering punk Lion. It's not even the fans. It's the idea of hardcore and violence involved. Tonight I'm gonna put a crown of thorns on Redd's skull and tomorrow I'm gonna hit the Strike Tower's soundstage and make everyone listen to me talk about how hardcore they aren't. Embrace Nirvana.

We cut back to ringside.

Match Number Five
NIRVANA vs. REDD (c)
Crown of Thorns Match - Hardcore Title

RW: Next up is our hardcore title match. The champion Redd is set to defend his title against the self proclaimed "king of ultra violence", Nirvana.

JC: I've been hearing a lot of things about both Redd and Nirvana backstage, Randy. Some people can't seem to forget about Nirvana's past actions with the company while others believe that he's the very guy that the Hardcore division needs right now. It's a very conflicting debate.

RW: Let's also not forget that Redd doesn't seem to care too much about the Hardcore title. He cares more about winning the matches rather than holding the straps. Is that going to play a factor in this match?

JC: Not only that, but this is practically Nirvana's playground he's fighting in. It's a "Crown of Thorns" match where the winner is the one who places a literal crown of thorns on his opponent's head.

The camera cuts to the ring where we see the crown hanging above the ring. A couple ladders can be seen standing outside the ring.

RW: And as you can see our ring crew has already placed the crown on the wire and it is now being lifted high up. The only way for either Nirvana or Redd to grab the crown is to climb a ladder and reach for it.

JC: Easier said than done, especially in a match where anything goes.

Robyn: The following match is a Crown of Thorns match, and it is for the SFT Hardcore Championship!

The arena goes crimson red as the opening to "Cry of the Banshee" by Brocas Helm plays. Scenes of Nirvana dooing various hardcore and evil things play on the JumboTron.

" Lovers of the dark, step into the light!"

The vocals of the song begin and Nirvana walks from the ring curtain dressed in a nice black suit and his white wrestling mask. He stops at the top of the ramp and holds out his arms. Silver pyro shoots from the sides of the ramp around him. Nirvana lets the pyro fly onto him, embracing the sound of the fans boos. He slowly makes his way to the ring, mocking and talking bad to the fans as he does.

Robyn: First making his way to the ring, the challenger, from Parts Unknown and weighing in at 257 pounds, he is the "King of Ultra Violence"...NIRVANA!

Before he enters the ring he tosses off the top half of his suit. When he enters the ring he breaks away his pants. Nirvana, now dressed in his ring gear, bends down in the middle of the ring and beats the canvas. As he does pyro goes off around him. It all dies down and Nirvana goes to his corner awaiting Redd.

Robyn: And his opponent...

"By Testament" by The Ballad starts as the lights dim and Redd walks past the curtain. He heads to the ring slowly with his head lowered and the SFT Hardcore title dragged across the ground.

Robyn: From Greenville, South Carolina and weighing in at 220 pounds, he is the SFT Hardcore Champion...REDD!

Redd tosses the Hardcore title on the ground like it was a piece of garbage and slides into the ring. Almost immediately Nirvana jumps on him and stomps on his back not allowing him to get up. Robyn gets out of the ring right away and referee Dean Barge, not able to do anything about it in this kind of match, simply calls for the bell. It rings, and the match is official.

RW: And Nirvana is already dishing out punishment to Redd.

JC: I don't think he liked the way Redd was simply dragging the title on the ground like that. He has way more respect for the Hardcore division.

RW: But no respect for sportsmanship it appears.

Nirvana keeps stomping away at Redd until he grows tired of it. After, he picks Redd up and whips him into the ropes. Redd bounces off and Nirvana drops him with a clothesline. Still not satisfied Nirvana lifts up Redd and tosses him out of the ring through the ropes. He exits the ring as well and "helps" Redd to his feet before pushing him into the guardrail. Nirvana grabs the sides of the guardrail and begins ramming his shoulder into Redd's chest. After the fifth ram Nirvana looks to the fans for approval but he gets mostly boos. He tells them to "fuck off", grabs Redd, and tosses him shoulder first into the steel steps.

RW: And this has been all Nirvana so far.

JC: The champ needs to shake it off and fight back, or else this is going to end quick!

Nirvana walks over to Redd, grabs him by the hair, and smacks him face first on the steps. He then tosses him back into the ring. Noticing that one of the ladders is close by, Nirvana grabs one, unfolds it, and tosses it into the ring. He then looks under the ring and pulls out a chair and a table. The fans erupt into cheers and starts chanting "we want tables". Nirvana slides both weapons into the ring before entering it himself.

RW: And now Nirvana has some toys to play with. This could get ugly quick.

Nirvana grabs the steel chair, stares at it for a couple seconds, and then waits for Redd to get to his feet. When he does he swings like a mad man, but Redd ducks it in time and delivers an elbow to the side of the head causing Nirvana to drop the chair. Redd goes over to Nirvana looking to grab him for a move, but the king of ultra violence simply pokes Redd's eyes before grabbing him from behind and hitting a back suplex. Nirvana gets up and goes over to the ladder. He drags it to the center of the ring, then grabs Redd and scoop slams him right on top of the ladder. Redd then goes to the turnbuckle and climbs it to the very top.

RW: If this top rope move land it's gonna hurt like a bitch.

JC: For him or for Redd?

RW: Probably both!

Nirvana turns around while perched and looks for a moonsault on Redd, but the champ moves out of the way and Nirvana lands chest first on the ladder. Redd gets to his feet, runs, and boots Nirvana right in the face before he can get back up again. Redd grabs Nirvana by the hair, puts him between his legs, and it looks like he's about to go for a powerbomb, but Nirvana deadweights, low blows him right in the groin and grabs him for a scoop slam that lands him right on top of the ladder. Redd clutches his back as he rolls off the ladder.

RW: Redd went to give Nirvana some of his own medicine, but the challenger knew how to counter it.

JC: Of course he does. He's been giving powerbombs to people his entire career!

Nirvana goes over to the ladder, lifts it up, and places it against the nearest turnbuckle. He then goes over to Redd, gets him up, and whips him towards the ladder. Redd crashing back first and winds up leaning against it. Nirvana charges forward looking for a body splash, but Redd moves out of the way and once more Nirvana causes himself to crash into the ladder.

RW: Nirvana just can't seem to hit his target tonight!

Nirvana stumbles back allow Redd to grab him from behind and land a Russian leg sweep. Redd then runs the ropes and hits a running leg drop right on the throat of the challenger. Redd notices the chair Nirvana dropped earlier and takes it. He places the chair on top of Nirvana's face, then goes over to the ladder and pulls it off the turnbuckle. He the simple lets go of the ladder and watches as the top rung lands right on top of the chair smashing it against Nirvana's face.

JC: Well so much for being the pretty one.

Redd grabs Nirvana while he's rolling in pain, lifts him up, and drops him with a DDT right on the chair. A small trickle of blood pours down from the top of Nirvana's forehead and Redd looks ready to end the match. He kicks Nirvana aside and grabs the ladder, setting it up in the center of the ring. He looks up at the crown and begins to climb. He makes it within inches of reaching the top rung when Nirvana suddenly springs to life, pushes the ladder, and causes Redd to fall and land neck first on the top rope. Redd clutches his neck and coughs violently while Nirvana looks on, a smile on his bloody face.

RW: And just like that Nirvana is back up!

JC: It looks like the challenger was playing possum, and he waited until Redd was high enough for him to cause some serious damage.

RW: He may have done just that!

Nirvana grabs the chair and goes over to Redd. Making sure that his point is made, Redd holds the chair upside down and drives the top part right into Redd's throat. He raises it up and drops it two more times before finally tossing the chair aside.

RW: Good lord! He's going to crush Redd's larynx!

JC: Then he'll REALLY be just like Legion!

Nirvana goes over to the table, lifts it, and sets it up. He goes over to Redd, lifts him up, and places him on the table. He goes to get the ladder, but Redd somehow manages to not only get back on his feet, but fight back with a series of right punches.

RW: What the-how is he doing that?

JC: Well you don't need to talk in order to kick ass.

Nirvana goes for a punch of his own, but Redd ducks it and connects with a jawbreaker. He then adds on to the chain by landing an inverted atomic drop. He then finishes the combo off with an inverted Russian leg sweep.

RW: WOW! What offense from Redd. He's proving himself to be an enduring champion.

JC: I'm speechless! And so is Redd!

RW: That's enough out of you.

Redd clutches his throat as he gets up, goes over to the ladder, and props it up again. Nirvana rolls out of the ring to collect himself while Redd starts his journey up the ladder. The fans cheer as Redd climbs up rung by rung. He stops from time to time to clear his throat which by now has started showing signs of blood in his mouth. Nirvana is up at this point, and he digs under the ring for something he can use. He smiles as he pulls out a barbwire 2x4 cross.

RW: How the hell did that get past security?

JC: Maybe they're Jewish.

RW: Do you want us to get sued again?!

JC: Fine, fine...maybe they're anti-Semitic Jews.

RW: Can someone PLEASE cut off his mic?

Nirvana slides back into the ring and notices Redd climbing. He's nearing the top, but before he can reach out the challenger takes his cross and slashes Redd in the back with it. Redd cries out in pain but holds on to the ladder not willing to let go. Nirvana takes full advantage of this by once again slashing him across the back with the cross. Redd kicks Nirvana in the head once before climbing up again. Nirvana drops the cross and grabs Redd's leg in order to pull him off the ladder, but Redd is persistent and he keeps on climbing up.

RW: Look at that! Even with Nirvana on his leg Redd is STILL able to climb up.

The challenger lets go of Redd's leg, walks around the ladder and climbs up on the opposite side. Soon he and Redd meet face to face, and the two start punching each other back and forth. Redd manages to land a punch that leaves Nirvana dazed and allows him to read for the crown, but Nirvana spits a red mist that lands directly in Redd's eyes.

RW: It's that dreaded blood mist!

JC: Well played by the challenger.

Nirvana climbs the ladder up until he's positioned close to the crown. But instead of grabbing it he grabs Redd, places his head between his legs, and signals for a powerbomb. The fans are going nuts by this point.

RW: No way! NO WAY! This will kill him!

JC: I think that's the intention!

Nirvana goes to lift him up, but Redd stops it by grabbing the sides of the ladder. He then lifts Nirvana up and back body drops him over his head and off the ladder where he crashes down on the table shattering it to pieces. The crowd chants "HOLY SHIT!" as long as they can as Redd collapses on top of the ladder and Nirvana lies motionless.

RW: MY GOD! That had to be a twelve of fifteen foot drop off that ladder! It's over!

JC: I have to agree with you there, Randy. Nobody gets up from a fall like that, not even a guy like Nirvana.

Redd eventually comes to his senses and spots the crown hanging above. Shaking his head, he climbs up to a reasonable position, reaches, and finally pulls the crown off its hook. Redd holds it up close as he sighs with relief. The fans look ready to celebrate, but don't hear the bell ring.

JC: Hey...why isn't the bell ringing? Did the timekeeper fall asleep or something?!

RW: Don't you remember the rules before the show, Johnny? The match isn't over yet. Redd still has to place the crown on Nirvana's head in order to win!

JC: Oh yeah...well that shouldn't be too hard for Redd.

Redd slowly climbs back down the ladder. When he hits the floor he takes the time to wipe the mist off of his face. When he finishes he goes over to Nirvana and pulls him off of the wreckage. The challenger is starting to move a little, but he still looks completely out of it. He falls to one knee and looks up at Redd who holds the crown over his head. Redd says something to him, and goes to place the crown on his head, but Nirvana suddenly grabs a piece of table next to him and slashes the arm holding the crown. Redd drops the crown and grabs his arm, blood dripping from the cut.

JC: Look at that! He's STILL fighting!

RW: I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it for myself.

Nirvana holds his head, the pain foreign to everyone but him. He notices the crown lying on the ground and grabs hold of it. He then dashes towards Redd and clotheslines him down with the crown to the throat. Redd clutches his throat again while Nirvana drops down next to him. He then takes the crown and quickly places it on top of Redd's head, squeezing it on his head in order to make sure it's secure. When referee Barge sees the crown on Redd's head he calls for the bell and Nirvana collapses on the ground.

RW: Holy...I don't believe it!

JC: He did it! Nirvana did it!

The fans boo like crazy as Nirvana's arm is raised and the hardcore title is placed on his chest by the referee.

Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match and the NEW SFT Hardcore Champion...NIRVANA!

"Cry of the Banshee" plays once more as Nirvana is helped up by the referee, but he quickly pushes him off and gets up on his own. Redd lies on the ground still grabbing his throat and coughing up small traces of blood.

RW: Nirvana pushes through the pain, steals the crown from Redd and places it on his head all in a matter of seconds!

JC: Sounds like a hardcore champion to me!

RW: I still wonder if it's fair for Redd to do all the work and wind up losing.

JC: All's fair in love and war, Randy. And THIS...was a war.

Winner: NIRVANA via Putting Crown of Thorns on Redd's Head

IN-RING SEGMENT

JC: Well what a spectacular match we just witnessed!

RW: I don't know if I would use those words but I would agree it was fun to watch, defiantly Pay per view quality.

JC: So by saying that you do agree with me that the match was indeed... spectacular...

RW: You know what John, scre...

(BOOM)

JC: Woah! What was that?!

RW: I don't know John but whatever that was seems like it was just the beginning, take a look at the striketron!

9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...0...

Yellow and Blue Pyro being to shoot off with a deafening roar; and as the smoke clears a scramble of words appear on the striketron and begin to rearrange to spell out "A Dying Dream" followed by "Erik Dean" and as the words set the fans let out a pop that rattles the arena as "Welcome Home" by Coheed and Cambria plays over the arena sound system.

JC: I don't believe it.

RW: You would think after getting injured during his last run he would have felt that it was time to step away.

JC: I guess not, some people just don't know when to step away, but by the looks of it the fans are happy to have him back!

After a moment Erik Dean emerges from backstage sporting a striped blue suit with a red undershirt. His hands are held high and is motioning to the crowd to get louder. He drops his arms and cracks a smile as he makes his way down the ramp way, clapping the hands of the fans as he moves slowly down to ringside. Once ringside he climbs the ring and steps through the ring, once in the center of the ring he takes a second to take in the moment and lets out a loud yell of excitement and then cracks another smile. He singles for Robyn to fetch him a microphone. Seconds later his music stops and a microphone gets tossed into the ring for him and he catches it. Erik is about to speak but is stopped and is now speechless as the fans chant his name. A minute passes and Erik taps the microphone to get them to quite down.

Erik Dean: Good lord guys I've only been gone a few months, I'm glad to know I was missed!

(Pop)

Erik Dean: It's great to be back again, back home where I belong. For awhile I didn't think I would make it back here. This last injury on me took a toll far greater than any other I've had in my career; only because it wasn't anything serious that in my younger years it would hold me back. Now as I find myself a little bit older I'm finding that even the smallest of injuries could render me unable to come out here and perform in front of all of you, and the thought of that took its toll on my head.

Dean takes a moment before continuing

Erik Dean: So as I am at home, trying to rehab my knee and train to come back, I had to really think, did I really want to come back and do this all again? After a few days of talking it over with my friends I made the decision to continue on with my training and make another run at this. Lets face it, I've already done the backstage thing here, and I'm not sure I would ever return to that line of work here, and I've got to face the facts that I just love doing this more than anything right now. There is one thing Shadow told me, and told me every day when I asked him at the offices how he was doing. He would tell me he was "Living the Dream", that phrase was written on every door back in the day. Well today I find myself living a dream that could be on its last leg, a dying dream, but damnit I'm going to stick it out until the end, and make one hell of a run while this dream lasts. For myself, and for my fans out there, I owe you all that much. So I'll get a couple warm up matches in, and you can bet that when the Lethal Lottery comes around I'll be there, and be there to win it. Goodnight all and enjoy the rest of this fucking show!

Dean drops the microphone and raises his hands again to the crowd's cheering as his makes his leave.

JC: Wow he's back again!

RW: And something seems different about him this time, he's got more of a fire in his eyes then the last time we saw him.

JC: This should make for an interesting tournament next month if he is truly back!

Match Number Six
JACK JONES & TWILIGHT vs. SEAN LANE
Handicap Match - Tag Team Titles

The entire arena goes dark... "Now, now, now, now, now... Now, now, now, now, now!" A shower of gold pyro shoots from the roof as shots of blue shoot up from the ground as the drums pick up and the guitar gets going. As the smoke clears, Sean Lane is standing in the middle of the stage spinning...coming to a stop with his thumbs pointing at himself, then spreading his arms and heading to the ring.

RW: Lets see if this gauntlet that Sean Lane has been through lately comes to an end.

Friends in Low places by Garth Brooks hits as Jack Jones and Twilight come to the ring, they sport brand new black tshirts with a large green circle on the front.

JC: What do you suppose those are?

I would gather it's the infamous and non existant symbol of the "inner circle".

Anthony Jesus makes his way to the ring before the bell sounds. Walking down with a silver cane in his right hand and a fur coat looking very pimpadelic.

RW: What's he doing out here?

JC: I'm not sure.

The bell rings. And Jack Jones starts it off against Lane. Lane with shoulder block and a clothesline to bring Jack to the floor. Lane gets close but Jack hits him in the face with a boot.

Jesus gets close to the ring and starts yelling for Sean Lane to get up.

RW: Is Jesus calling out to Lane egging him to get up and fight?

JC: I think so.

Jack with a boston crab on Lane applying pressure to the back and neck and head area.

RW: I haven't seen one of those in a long time.

JC: neither have I, he must of picked that up along the way and we didn't notice.

RW: Jack Jones is easily forgettable and yet forgetting him would be a mistake as many have found out.

Anthony jumps on the apron and yells at Jack Jones.

RW: What is he doing?

Jack doesn't know what to make of this, he looks puzzled and breaks his hold. Sean Lane slowly gets up doesn't know what to make of this. He looks at Anthony who only smiles and then clocks him over the head with the silver cane.

JC: oh damn!

Jack shrugs his shoulders then covers Sean Lane and the ref counts....1............2...........3!!!

Twilight didn't even get into the ring.

Anthony walks away smiling and laughing as Jack and Twilight leave without any celebration.

Winner: JACK JONES & TWILIGHT via Pinfall

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

We go backstage to the locker room of "The Icon" "The Legend" Big T and he is making his final preperations for his match coming up next. Kelsey walks up behind him and touches his shoulder and he jumps up and almost strikes her but stops mid-punch. Kelsey puts up her hands to cover her face.

Big T: I'm sorry My Angelbaby! I'm in attack mode right now and you coming up behind me startled me.

Kelsey: I guess I shouldn't ever do that again, huh?

Big T: Yeah please don't baby.

Big T smiles as he grabs Kelsey and brings her close to him. He looks deep into her eyes and plants a 20 second frencher on her. He then looks into her eyes.

Big T: Angel...

Kelsey: Yes Lovebug...

Big T: Can you do me a favor please?

Kelsey: What's that?

Big T: Stay here in the back while I go out their and massacre Tony Snyder. I don't wanna give Nightwolf any opportunity to come and try to take you away from me. Please stay in here and lock the door after I walk out.

Kelsey looks at him kinda mad but understands at the same time.

Kelsey: Okay baby, because I don't ever want to be taken from you I will do as you ask.

Big T: Thank you my love. I'll see you after im done mopping the floor with Snyder's own blood.

Kelsey kisses Big T on the lips one more time before he exits the locker room. Kelsey locks the door and goes to relax on the couch to watch the match. The scene fades back to the ringside area.

Match Number Seven
BIG T vs. TONY SNYDER (c)
Hell in a Cell Match - RWF World Heavyweight Title

JC: Up next Randy we see Tony Snyder of the RWF faction defend the RWF World title against Big T inside a Hell in a Cell.

RW: My only question is why is the RWF title being defended in SFT and on an SFT Pay Per View, so far Retribution has been great and we have seen a great deal of matches so far tonight.

JC: This match sets up the main event of Gary Mac verses Lionel Kingston in a fall from grace match for the SFT World title. I can understand what you mean about the RWF but Big T can take that title from Tony Snyder tonight and more or less put a big nail into RWF.

RW: I might not like RWF but Tony Snyder has been a great competitor since joining SFT, it is a shame neither he nor anyone else in the RWF have really gotten the best of Big T and the fact no one from RWF can interfere will be a huge blow to Snyder.

A loud pop is heard and the lights in the arena go completely out leaving everybody in total darkness. The StrikeTron lights up with two quarters falling on a table. Once the quarters stop rolling around the beginning of the song "No Love" by Eminem featuring Lil Wayne begins to play. First just the slow beat begins to play with some words spoken every so often.

"Love... Love..."

Music continues.

"Love... Love... Love..."

Music continues.

"Don't Hurt Me... Don't Hurt Me...

No More... No More..."

Drum snares play for a quick moment...

"Love... Love... Love..."

...and then Lil Wayne begins.

"Throw dirt on me and grow a wildflower
But it's "fuck the world", get a child out her
Yeah, my life a bitch, but you know nothing about her
Been to hell and back, I can show you vouchers
I'm rolling Sweets, I'm smoking sour
Married to the game but she broke her vows
That's why my bars are full of broken bottles The sound of a tape rewinding fast is heard and just then red and gold pyro shoots off from the top of the ramp staging. "The Icon" "The Legend" Big T makes his way through the curtain from backstage. Mutliple colored lights flash throughout the arena. And the song continues with Lil Wayne as Big T slowly walks down the ramp and takes in all the cheers from the fans.

"I think about more than I forget
But I don't go around fire expecting not to sweat
And these niggas know I lay them down, make their bed
Bitches try to kick me while I'm down: I'll break your leg
Money outweighing problems on a triple beam
I'm sticking to the script, you niggas skipping scenes
Be good or be good at it
Fucking right I've got my gun, semi-Cartermatic
Yeah, put a dick in their mouth, so I guess it's "fuck what they say"
I'm high as a bitch: up, up and away"

Big T walks up the cold steel stairs, steps through the ropes, and enters the ring.

"Man, I come down in a couple of days
OK, you want me up in a cage, then I'll come out in beast mode
I got this world stuck in the safe, combination is the G-code
It's Weezy motherfucker, blood gang and I'm in bleed mode
All about my dough but I don't even check the peephole
So you can keep knocking but won't knock me down
No love lost, no love found"

Big T climbs up to the top rope and once he has his balance he stands straight up and holds his fists in the air. And as the hook of the song begins with Eminem you can see Big T mouth some of the words as well.

"It's a little too late to say that you're sorry now
You kicked me when I was down
But what you say, just (don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more)
That's right bitch: and I don't need you, don't want to see you
Bitch you get (no love)
You showed me nothing but hate
You ran me into the ground
But what comes around goes around
I don't need you (don't hurt me)
You (don't hurt me no more)
That's right, and I don't need you, don't want to see you
You get (no love)
Bitch you get (no love)
And I don't need you
Get em"

Big T jumps off the top rope and lands on the mat. The music fades out as Eminem begins his verse. Big T waits in the corner for the match to begin.

RW: In the ring right now if Big T, a former SFT World Heavyweight Champion and one of the men who could possibly end their careers here tonight. This isn't a forgiving match type and he and Snyder must know that in order to win they have to push their bodies to the limit.

JC: Big T has never been one to back down from a fight, he was the first World Champion of two thousand and eleven and he will be trying to take the RWF crown away from not only Snyder but Nightwolf too.

Tony struts to the ring making eyes at all the beautiful women in the crowd, once in the ring he poses on the corner in a Randy Orton-style pose. Then the hell in a cell is lowered over the ring as both men watch it going down.

JC: Look Randy it is being lowered just now, what will these two guys do to win, do they have what it takes to push the other to the limit?

RW: There is only one way we will find out John and that is watching this match unfold the cell is lowered and anything goes in this match.

As the bell rings both men begin circling each other and size their opponents up, Big T moves forward but Tony slides out the ring and pulls at the cell door. He cant escape, Big T runs and slides out the ring, Snyder notices this and begins to run around the ring followed closely by Big T. Snyder slides into as Big T follows Snyder drops an elbow down across the back of his neck halting T. Snyder gets back to his knees and drops another elbow across the neck of Big T. Tony Snyder turns T around and begins unloading on him with huge right hands to the head.

RW: Look at Tony Snyder go, he lured Big T into a trap and is unloading on him with huge rights.

JC: Well Randy he has to do his best to get an advantage Big T is a top competitor here in SFT.

The fans boo as Tony doesn't stop with the rights, after another thirty seconds Snyder stops and stands up, he stomps on Big T and then shouts "I'm better than you." Tony reaches down and pulls T up by his hair, with the handful of hair Snyder runs to the corner and smashes Big T's head off the top turnbuckle. Turning T around he hits a knife edge chop, followed by another. Snyder stands back and kicks Big T in the midsection, as T falls to the mat, his back is resting against the bottom rope. Tony begins stomping away on the chest of Big T not letting up whilst using the top rope as leverage to hammer the stomps into the former SFT World Champion.

JC: It looks like Tony Snyder just wants to unload and fight this match out, this isn't about wrestling in this style of match this is more about who can survive.

RW: If Snyder keeps this up John I don't know how long Big T can last, those stomps and the rights where brutal.

Finally Tony stops putting the boots to Big T and pulls him to his feet, another knife edge chop leaves a huge red mark on Big T. Snyder grabs his arm and whips him all the way across the ring and Big T crashes back first into the turnbuckle he staggers out holding his back. Tony Snyder is over and Big T receives a kick to the midsection doubling him over, Snyder hoists T up and hits a suplex. Tony Snyder sits up and dusts himself down as the crowd boo.

RW: The fans almost don't like Snyder as they do Gary Mac.

JC: That is what happens when you go after Big T who these fans adore.

Tony gets up and grabs Big T by the hair and pulls him up also, when he is on his feet Snyder runs and throws Big T over the top rope. T's back crashes against the steel cell before landing on the mat. Snyder steps through the ropes and stands on the apron looking down at a beaten up Big T. Snyder runs along the mat a little and leaps off bringing an elbow down across the back of Big T.

JC: Tony Snyder moving this out of the ring, these guys could use the cell as a weapon here.

RW: Sure but why did Big T get involved in a match like this, I bet you any money that is what he is thinking right now.

As Snyder gets up he kicks Big T in the ribs before pulling him up, Snyder grabs his arm and goes to whip him into the steel steps but T reverses it and Tony crashes knees first into the steps. Big T falls to his knees trying to gain his composure whilst gaining a bit of energy. After a few moments Big T moves towards Snyder and pulls him to his feet, T grabs his head and brings it down across the steps before throwing him face first into the cell.

RW: The tide has turned and now Big T must use this as momentum to gain an advantage in the match, he knows it is just him and Snyder.

JC: True Randy and T has had a lot of success over the RWF guys can he keep it going?

After catching some more of his breath T stands up and looks as Snyder is looking under the ring, Big T grabs his leg and pulls him out as he does Snyder has a fire extinguisher and blasts it into the face of Big T. Snyder gets up with T blinded Tony takes a step back and then brings the extinguisher crashing against the skull of Big T. Tony kicks the top of the steps off and then stands on them before reaching down and pulling Big T up onto the steps and placing his head between his legs.

JC: Tony Snyder is going to try and piledrive Big T onto the steps.

RW: If he does John then this match could be over.

Tony tries to lift Big T but he blocks it, Snyder with a punch to the ribs and then tries again but Big T doesn't go up, T stands up flipping Snyder over him and onto the mat. T tries to regain his composure once again whilst trying to see, he picks up the top half of the steps and waits on Tony getting up. Snyder is slowly getting to his feet and Big T throws the steps which crash against the skull of Tony Snyder sending him down to the floor. Big T then slides the steps into the ring and looks under the ring, he pulls out a set of ladders and slides them in.

RW: Why the hell is Big T bringing a set of ladders into the match, in fact into the ring?

JC: I haven't a clue Randy but it wont be good for either man if they are used as a weapon.

Snyder begins using the cell to get to his feet and his face is covered in blood, T grabs his head and begins grating it against the cell. Then Big T turns him around and slides him into the ring, T takes a minute to get to the apron but as he does he stands there for a second looking at Tony Snyder lying on his back in the middle of the ring. T gets in and then stomps on the forehead of Tony Snyder before pulling him up, T has him ready for the P.I.M.P Hnad as the referee is standing close to them. Snyder with an elbow to the face of T which rocks him and he releases the hold. T staggers back as Snyder runs with a clothesline as Big T ducks Snyder clotheslines the referee knocking him down. Snyder turns around and Big T connects with Game Over and falls to cover him.

JC: T doesn't know the referee is knocked out, what the hell he has this won that is at the least a five count.

RW: I haven't a clue what the hell they will do now, look the referee with the key on the outside is unlocking the padlock to get in and cover.

As the referee on the outside unlocks the door Big T stands up and shouts over the ropes, he notices from the back Chris Titan and Kave Blackwell running down the aisle. The knock the referee out and they both have chairs, Big T steps back as Titan grabs the key and as they enter they lock the door from the inside. Tony Snyder is up and from behind hits Big T with a clothesline sending him down, Kave and Chris roll into the ring and Big T is down. Titan hoists the chair up and brings it down against the back of Big T Snyder stands back using the ropes to hold him up.

RW: Tony Snyder is a bloody mess, and now it is three on one in the middle of the ring, T has no chance right here.

JC: For the love of god someone come out and get these guys out of the match, this is just wrong.

The fans watch as Kave hoists his chair up and brings it down across the back of Big T just as Titan did, they go over and check on Tony Snyder. Both Kave and Chris grab Big T and place him on top of the steel steps, they place both chairs across his body as Snyder sets up the ladder, the crowd boo as Chris Titan and Kave Blackwell stand pointing at Tony as he begins climbing the ladders.

JC: No not from there onto the chairs onto the steel steps, this would definitely win it for Snyder.

RW: Hold on why are the crowd cheering?

The boos turns to cheers as Switchblade runs through the crowd and leaps over the guard rail, he has a crow bar in his hand and makes quick work of the door. Snyder looks around as Switchblade gets onto the apron, Kave Blackwell runs at him to give him a right hook but Switchblade ducks it and rams the crowbar into the ribs of Kave doubling him over. Chris Titan watches as Switchblade enters the ring, Titan runs for a clothesline as he does Snyder leaps off the ladders but Big T moves out of the way in time and Tony Snyder crashes into the steel chairs and steps. Switchblade rams the crowbar into the back of Chris Titan and both he and Blackwell roll out the ring and exit the cell. Big T stands up and extends his hand to Switchblade who decides to wrap the crowbar across the head of Big T, "Take that Gary." Shouts Switchblade into the face of Big T. He exits the rign and the cell and begins shouting, "How did you like that Gary? Was that good enough for you?" Then Switchblade makes his way to the back.

RW: Why did Switchblade just attack Big T, he helped him then turned on him all in the space of a few minutes what is his game plan?

JC: I don't know but he is fixated with getting Gary who I can only assume is Gary Mac, looks like T got to taste what Switchblade has in store for the current World Champion.

Finally the referee gets up and looks as Tony Snyder crawls over and throws his arm across Big T.

REF: 1...2... Shoulder up by Big T.

With both men crawling towards the ropes they pull themselves up by using the ropes, Snyder runs at Big T who goes for Game Over but Snyder ducks it. As Big T turns around Snyder goes for Mic Check but Big T reverses it into Change the Game and Tony Snyder is down. Big T takes a moment to throw the shoulder over Tony Snyder.

REF: 1...2... Tony Snyder gets a shoulder up at the last second.

JC: Neither of these men want to give this up at all, l don't know how long they can go on.

RW: I agree with you John but we have seen run ins weapons used and both men are doing everything they can.

Again both men struggle to their feet, Snyder looks around and Big T hits Game Over and falls on top of him. The ref drops to the mat.

REF: 1...2...3

RW: Big T did it, he takes the RWF Heavyweight title from Tony Snyder.

JC: How will the RWF respond to this?

Winner: BIG T via Pinfall

POST MATCH SEGMENT

After the match, as Big T celebrates his big win with the RWF title given to him and the cell is raised back up, other members of the RWF suddenly come down the ring.

RW: And here comes the cavalry!

JC: T HAD to know this was coming!

T drops the title and gestures for all of them to bring it. Nightwolf, Rogers, Titan, and Blackwell all slide into the ring and attack Big T at once. T fights them off one by one at first, but the numbers game is too much and soon he falls to the ground as they all start beating him down mercilessly.

RW: Somebody needs to stop this!

JC: I ain't going in there.

The crowd then cheers, but quickly boos as SwitchBlade comes running out from behind the curtain with a steel chair in hand.

RW: Wha-SWITCHBLADE?!

JC: HAS HE JOINED DA?!

The RWF just keeps beating up T without even giving SwitchBlade a glance. SwitchBlade slides into the ring, runs up to Nightwolf and smacks him in the back of the head with the chair. Blackwell and Rogers turn around too only to get chair shots for their efforts. SwitchBlade then turns to Titan and points the chair at him.

RW: Well...looks like he's not with them.

JC: I guess SwitchBlade's looking to teach his future opponent a lesson!

SwitchBlade runs at Chris with the chair, but Titan gets out of the ring before he can be hit. He mouths off something to SwitchBlade who just stares at him with the same glassy look in his eyes. Nightwolf, Blackwell, Rogers, and eventually Snyder back away with Titan and head up the ramp no wanting anything to do with Big T AND SwitchBlade. SwitchBlade watches them leave while T is back on his feet. He looks and notices SwitchBlade standing in front of him.

RW: I don't think Big T believes what he sees.

JC: He shouldn't. Those two spent the latter part of 2010 beating the shit out of each other.

T turns SwitchBlade around and stares at him, a perplexed look on his face. SwitchBlade simply grin, takes his chair and drives it into T's T's ribs. The fans go back to booing louder as SwitchBlade looks down at the damaged Big T, and then back up at the fans.

RW: Well it looks like SwitchBlade is still not allied with anyone.

JC: EVERYONE is his enemy! Nobody's going to be spared of his wrath.

SwitchBlade raises the chair up and smacks it against T's back. He then exits the ring and grabs a microphone from the timekeeper.

RW: Oh God, more of this!?

SwitchBlade: And another battle is won in the war against all things Gary. You all saw what I just did. You all now see the truth standing before you. I have crushed plenty of dreams tonight, but more are still to come. This...I cannot promise. I cannot even guarantee. For you see...

SwitchBlade slides back into the ring, waits for T to get back up, and knocks him back down with the microphone. He laughs loudly and leans against the ropes, his eyes staring into the camera.

SwitchBlade: ...It's already destiny!

SwitchBlade laughs and rolls out of the ring. He heads to the back while Big T lifts his head up and watches SwitchBlade, an old fire ignited inside him.

RW: SwitchBlade HAS to be stopped! He can't keep attacking the wrestlers like this!

JC: Well at this rate he's going to make PLENTY of enemies. He'll back himself into a corner.

RW: I hate to see what he'll do when that happens...

Main Event
LIONEL KINGSTON vs. GARY MAC (c)
Fall From Grace Match - World Heavyweight Title
[Lionel Kingston's 2011 King of the DeathMatch Crown]
[Special Guest Referee: Ace]

RW: Up next we have the Fall From Grace Match that will feature the current World Champion Gary Mac defending the title against Lionel Kingston who also puts the 2011 King of the DeathMatch on the line.

JC: These two have played mind games and tried to one up each other since last months Pay Per View, and if anything Drake Drummonds win over Genevieve gives Gary Mac the advantage right here.

RW: After his win over Switchblade last month where he retained the title, Gary has been impressive as ever, beating Lukas Knight and Josh Konnelly, whilst Lionel took the month off to prepare.

JC: Will being away for a month have an impact on his chances here tonight, will the fact Gary has kept his skills sharp all month give him the edge in this match.

RW: This match is a Fall From Grace match and either of these two guys can win it, but there is a good chance one of them could end their career here tonight.

JC: This is a dangerous match, both men have been preparing themselves all month and who ever wins this deserves to be known the the SFT World Heavyweight Champion.

A light, ringing sound is first heard as the lights go dim and the screen of the StrikeTron flickers with different stars painting the darkness of the screen with each bell-like sound that is heard. As soon as the ringing comes to a slower, less powerful tune, the lights go out. As the other instruments kick in the lights above flicker with the rolling of the drums and the strumming of the guitar. The lights also begin to stroll around the crowd and the ramp way as it begins to get heavier into the music. The word "Savior" shows in bright gold in front of the white stars, transforming into "Lionel Kingston".

Just as his name shows, NIGHTMARE screams prolonged over the p.a. and he appears out of the curtains. He stares out at the crowd then at the ring, walking toward it as if it were his opponent. He raises his hand, taking in the crowds reaction with pleasure as it comes.

As he reaches the ring, he jumps up easily, stepping over the ropes and walking over to his corner. The lights continue to strobe above him as he is announced by the ring announcer. He keeps his confident grin, never swaying from it as he shuffles his feet for the match.

RW: Well John there is the challenger one of the biggest men to ever step foot inside an SFT ring and a former World Heavyweight Champion.

JC: Sure he won the title but he is possibly in the top five shortest reigning World Champions, something that if he wins tonight he needs to remedy but Shawn Walsh and the special guest referee Ace have had a five day title reign and are considered some of the best.

~PERFECTION HAS ARRIVED~

Appears on the tron and then the lights in the arena blackout, a green spotlight begins searching throughout the arena, the fans begin to boo. The spotlight goes faster and faster, the guitar rift can be heard, the spotlight gets even faster then the opening of "Getting Away With Murder" By Papa Roach begins to blare out and the spotlight stops on the entrance way. The Lights stay out as the fans booing become louder.

Somewhere beyond happiness and sadness
I need to calculate
What creates my own madness
And I'm addicted to your punishment
And you're the master
And I am waiting for disaster

I feel irrational
So confrontational
To tell the truth I am
Getting away with murder
It isn't possible
To never tell the truth
But the reality is I'm getting away with murder
(Getting away, Getting away, Getting away)

Gary Mac then walks out from the back with his black wrestling tights on with green lightning down each side. With the Words The Real Deal inscribed onto the back of it. The fans boo as Mac wears a Black T-Shirt with the words Too Fucking Good inscribed onto the front of it. He holds the SFT World Heavyweight Championship on his shoulder and then Gary Mac smirks towards the fans and then begins to head towards the ring, walking past the fans and as he does he he spits on one while wiping his forehead and throwing the sweat onto the fans.

I drink my drink and I don't even want to
I think my thoughts when I don't even need to
I never look back cause I don't even want to
And I don't need to
Because I'm getting away with murder

I feel irrational
So confrontational
To tell the truth I am
Getting away with murder
It isn't possible
To never tell the truth
But the reality is I'm getting away with murder

Mac reaches the ring and he leaps up onto the ring apron. Gary turns around and poses for the fans whilst lifting the SFT Championship above his head, then he leaps over the top rope and lands on his feet. Mac then takes of his T-Shirt and climbs the nearest turnbuckle. Mac poses once more before throwing the T-Shirt into the crowd and then he jumps down and waits on his opponent.

JC: The champ is in the house Randy, he might be one of the most egotistical, evil, cocky, assholes to ever hold that gold but like he says he backs everything up which he says. And if he wins tonight who will dethrone him as SFT Champion.

RW: True but he has to first over come the odds of Lionel Kingston, his death match style match and the fact Ace is involved, and believe it or not Ace will have something to say about Gary being champion did you hear him last week on Titans? He isn't happy with Mac holding that title and thinking he is above Ace or anyone else for that matter.

JC: I don't think Ace will play a big part if he knows what is good for him, Gary Mac has proved he can beat Lionel twice before and if he needs to he will beat up Ace also.

The sound of a guitar rift echoes the arena as the crowd goes silent. When the last note is heard, the lights go out. Within 10 seconds, red lights flicker arena the arena as "Set It Off" by Audioslave blasts throughout the arena. As the song blares out, smoke arises from beneath the stage and fills the entrace. Within seconds, the entrace is filled with smoke and two red lights beam from behind the smoke leaving a shadow of a man. The crowd goes nuts as the man steps outside of the smoke and is revealed as Ace. Ace stands on top of the stage look towards the crowd before walking the ramp. He then slides into the ring and climbs the nearest turnbuckle and taunts the crowd, as the crowd goes nuts again. He then jumps off and walks over to the opposite turnbuckle and taunts the crowd.

RW: Here he is the special guest referee, and I hear he is back for the Lethal Lottery this summer, glad he is back in SFT.

JC: You may be the only one, if he screws Gary Mac I think Ace's career wont be going much longer.

Gary and Lionel stand in the ring, Ace trying to remain safely in the corner to avoid their clash. Steel weapons rest around the cage, the cage itself only a couple of feet away from the ring. As the bell sounds, Lionel is quick to head for Gary, who immediately jumps up and dropkicks Lionel in the chest. Lionel stumbles backward, leaning on the ropes and rebounding quickly with a boot. Gary drops his weight, kicking Lionel in the shin, sending him in a split on the ground. Lionel's face twists as Gary runs to the ropes, rebounding and landing a boot in Lionel's face, his head snapping sideways from the impact. Lionel swings his leg out from the split, now in a sitting position as Gary bounces off the other side of the ring, rebounding with a flipping neck breaker on Lionel.

JC: Smart work by Gary cutting the big man down and getting him on his knees is the best way to keep the big man down.

RW: But he wont be down for ever John, just remember that.

Lionel lies on the ground, Gary reaching up to unravel the chain and wood ladder to get to the second cage. He takes a leap and grabs the ladder, the chains unraveling immediately. Gary tries to steady it, working to climb while Lionel gets to his feet. Gary gets two rungs up before Lionel grabs him by the waist, throwing him roughly to his back. Gary immediately sits up, Lionel kicking him in the chest and immediately to his back again. Lionel takes no time to grab Gary, lifting him up by his neck and placing his other hand in Gary's abdomen, lifting him up in a Gorilla Press and throwing him out of the ring. He bounces of the cage and hits the padding around the inside of the cage.

RW: Looks as if Lionel if finally taking charge of this match.

JC: He'll need to if he wants to recover his loss of manhood at the beginning of the match.

Lionel looks at Ace, who is resting calmly in the corner, watching the match as it continues on. Lionel turns forward, stepping over the ropes and hopping off the apron. As he lands, Gary throws the head of a steel chair into Lionel's gut, forcing him to bend over. Gary then raises the chair over his head, slamming it hard down on Lionel's back. He drops to a knee from the blow, receiving a second that brings him down to both knees and hands. Gary knees Lionel in the ribs, flipping him to his back just before throwing the chair to the ground.

JC: Using the chair to his advantage is a good move and with his speed he could just run up those ladders and grab the title.

RW: Lionel is huge though and wont be beaten easily.

JC: You tapped out to the Boston Crab.

RW: Shut up John, we all know Lionel just did it to prepare for the death matches.

He steps on Lionel's chest, up and over as he walks over to a kendo stick. Lionel rolls over and begins to posture up, seeing Gary holding the kendo stick in his hand. Gary walks over and raises it, slamming it down at Lionel who puts his arm up to block it. The stick immediately breaks, shattering against his arm as it began to immediately swell and bleed. Lionel stood up, smacking Gary in the head with his good arm, chopping him on the forehead causing him to stumble. Gary went forward, still holding the broken kendo stick and aiming to look like he was going to stab Lionel. Lionel raises a boot instead, Gary practically kissing Lionel's sole before falling to the ground.

JC: What is this, jailhouse rules?

RW: There are no rules, John. Just pretty much destroy your opponent in any possible way.

JC: So jailhouse rules it is. You could have just said so.

Lionel has the steel chair in his hand, grabbing the legs and raising the chair above his head, slamming it swiftly down on Gary's right leg. He yells out in pain, immediately curling the leg to his body and holding the impact point. Lionel slams the chair down on Gary's hands, immediately causing him to release his hold on his leg. Lionel then sets the chair on his leg, this time stomping on the chair. Gary yells once more, rolling away from Lionel and the chair, trying to get away. Lionel grabs the chair from the ground at throws it behind him, stalking Gary as he remains curled and rolling.

JC: He is a big idiot, I hope Gary just gets up and destroys him.

RW: Look at the size of him, Lionel isn't a man who can get destroyed.

Lionel kicks away the splintered wood from the kendo stick and continues walking, grabbing a light tube left leaning against the cage and continues walking over to Gary, smashing it against his head upon arrival. Gary's hands immediately cover his powdered face, blood spots forming on his cheek. Lionel then leans down, a knee on Gary's side as he begins to dig the glass into his forehead, blood beginning to pour out as cuts formed on the affected areas. Lionel throws the remains of the light to the side and begins to punch at the bloody area.

RW: The world champion is busted wide open, I think Lionel is proving that he has busted Mac open once and now a second time.

JC: Ah he just got lucky let us wait until the end before we shout about a little cut.

Lionel stands, letting Gary struggle with his injuries. Lionel walks over, grabbing the steel chair and opening it, and placing it on the ground. He walks over to Gary, placing a hand on his shoulder for him to turn and throw some of the fluorescent power in his eyes. Lionel immediately grabs for his face, blinded by the powder as Gary uses the cage to pull himself to his feet. Gary stumbles over to Lionel, kicking him in his gut and wrapping his arm around his head. He falls back, slamming Lionel's head into the chair, completely collapsing it with the inverted DDT.

JC: And Gary with the comeback!

RW: Gary used the powder to get the upper hand. That's dirty.

JC: That's smart...

Gary lifts Lionel, sliding him into the ring before walking around the ring and grabbing a sledgehammer. He slides in, Lionel beginning to stand, blinking rapidly to try to get the powder out of his eyes. Lionel stumbles forward, his hands now rubbing his eyes as Gary turns around and slams the sledgehammer into Lionel's gut. Lionel falls over, his hands grabbing his gut as Gary raises the hammer over his head. Lionel dives forward, slamming his shoulder into Gary's already injured leg, knocking him down while releasing the hammer. Lionel stands, his vision still compromised by the powder. He feels down and around for Gary, finally grabbing hold of a leg. He jumps up, slamming his foot down on the skin, Gary now screaming from the hit.

JC: I don't know how Lionel is getting away with this Ace stop him, disqualify him or something.

RW: John this is a match where anything goes, you can stab the guy if you want.

JC: Ok where is my pen knife till I give it to Gary Mac.

Gary rolls but Lionel follows, grabbing his leg and dropping a knee into the joint. He then pulls on the foot, applying torque to the leg. Gary screams, bending up and trying to pry Lionel's fingers off his foot. To no avail, he kicks Lionel's head with his other leg. Lionel pulls even more but Gary doesn't let up, laying in kicks to his face over and over again. Lionel finally releases the hold, stepping back and holding his nose, which is now bleeding. He leans against the ropes, looking down to see how bad it is bleeding. Gary crawls across the ring, pulling himself up with the ropes and standing on his left leg, the only one not injured. Lionel shakes off the injury, wiping his nose of the blood and wiping it off on his pants. He walks over to Gary, more stumbling as his blood continues to drip to the mat. He gets in close enough reach to Gary to grab him, but was cut off with a crescent kick to his chin.

JC: Gary pulls out The Real Deal from nowhere!

RW: Lionel has fallen back and doesn't seem to be moving!

Gary falls to the mat, favoring his right leg as he kicked Lionel with it. He lies near Ace, crumpled and in severe pain. Ace looks down, not bothering to check if either man is okay. Gary checks his leg, noticing the bruising immediately showing up near his knee cap and shin. He grabs the bottom rope, using his other hand to grab the middle rope. Lionel comes to, rolling to the turnbuckle and using it to pull himself up. He shakes his head a few times, trying to relieve himself of the cobwebs. He immediately notices Gary working to stand, finally reaching the top rope. Lionel steps to the side, grabbing the top rope and kneeling over, aiming for Gary. Gary finally gets to his feet and Lionel takes off in a sprint at Gary, who sees him coming, grabbing Ace by his referee shirt and throwing him in the way. As he twists and throws Ace, he falls over, having twisted his leg pretty badly. Lionel hits Ace with the Severed Justice, sending him flying through the middle rope, to the ground and rolling to the cage. He immediately grabs his abdomen, curling in pain as he takes in the impact.

JC: Lionel hit the ref with the Severed Justice! Ace is down! Ace is down!

RW: It was due to Gary's blatant interference by using him as a meat shield. It wasn't like Lionel aimed for him...

Lionel stands up, peering over the top rope at Ace, realizing what he had done. He calls out to him, not realizing Gary had already moved. Lionel looks over then turns around, Gary flying off the ropes and catching Lionel with a flipping neck breaker. Lionel immediately grabs his neck and rolls, Gary helping with his rolling by shoving the tip of his foot into his ribs forcefully. Lionel rolls out under the bottom rope, Gary takes in a deep breath and wipes some blood from his brows, walking to the center of the ring and beginning to grab the wooden rungs of the chain ladder again. He begins to climb, Lionel pulling himself up on the apron. Gary gets to the top, still favoring his right leg as he reaches the enclosed cage. He pushes on the cage door, opening it upwards and pulling himself up and into the cage. Lionel rolls into the ring, scurrying to get to the chain-made ladder. Gary closed the door and hurried over to the side of the cage, grabbing the ladder laying on its side against the cage and hurrying back. He sets the ladder up, placing the legs atop of the cage door and starting to climb, heading for the third cage immediately. Lionel gets to the top of the chain-made ladder, pushing on the cage with no avail to even shake the ladder from its base.

JC: Gary has made sure Lionel can't get in!

RW: Looks like Lionel has no choice but to wait!

Lionel jumps off the ladder and runs over to the sledgehammer and runs back climbing his ladder while Gary limps up his. Lionel reaches the top, grabbing the sledge by its tip and shoving the handle through the chain links. He pushes it as far as he can, tilting the handle and placing the head of the sledge through the chain links, bending the chain link in the meantime. He shoves his hand in the hole and places the handle to the lever of the ladder, forcing it up and causing the ladder to cave. The ladder falls back, Gary falling with it, his back hitting the cage while the ladder smacks into his face. He lands on his feet and falls over, his face landing on a pile of barbed items in the corner of the cage. Lionel pushes the cage up forcefully, knocking the ladder off of it and pulling himself in. He quickly crawls in, closing the gate and standing, walking over to Gary in the slightly smaller cage and picking him up. Lionel notices the blood now pouring from his face and grins, lifting him up once more in a Gorilla Press. He tosses him upwards and steps forward, his back hitting the top of the cage before he falls, his abdomen landing on the bottom of the cage. Lionel drops down, his elbow crashing hard into Gary's back. Gary lets out a yell, bending back, his arm placed on the affected area.

JC: These two are up taking it to each other, but Lionel has been cheating.

RW: Shut up John you are ruining a good match.

Lionel stands up, walking over to the opposite corner of the cage, placing his fingers on the chain links and crouching down. He stares at Gary who remains wincing in pain, waiting for him to get up. Gary writhes in pain, getting to a knee, keeping his hand on his back. As he gets to a standing base, Lionel rushes forward once again, but Gary leapfrogs over him, causing Lionel to quickly stop, placing his hands on the walls of the cage to stop dramatically. Lionel turns around, anger in his face. Gary jumps up, dropkicking Lionel in the face and backwards. Lionel's head connects with all the barbed goods in the corner, ripping him open immediately.

JC: Lionel was outsmarted once again!

RW: We all see that Randy... I think the crowd is more concerned with the barbs in his face.

Gary limps over to the ladder, setting it up again. He then walks over to a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire. He walks over to Lionel and slaps it across his back, causing him to let out a roar of pain. The fans cheer as Ace begins making his way up to the second cage, Mac looks at him as he stands up and is now in Mac's face. Gary and Ace are giving each other verbal as Lionel slowly gets to his feet.

RW: Ace is making sure Gary knows who is in charge.

JC: Mac would be up that ladder right now and be on his way to winning Ace is distracting him but it was Lionel who hit you Ace get him distract him.

With Lionel up he watches as Ace pushes Gary Mac then Mac goes to punch Ace but Lionel catches the punch and spins Mac around hitting a blackhole slam onto the baseball bat with barbed wire. Mac's back is covered in blood almost instantly as Lionel looks at Ace, he nods towards him and then Ace smiles. Ace climbs up to the top cage as Lionel picks up Gary and throws him head first into the cage, it shakes a little but Ace doesn't lose his balance. Grabbing the huge ladder at the top Lionel watches as Ace throws it off the cage.

JC: What the hell is he doing, why has Ace thrown the ladders away?

RW: Looks like the only way to win this now is throwing your opponent from the cages.

JC: Ace has screwed Gary Mac, Lionel has cheated whilst Mac has played by the rules all night.

Lionel applauds as Ace climbs back down, he picks up Gary Mac and hits a backbreaker, Lionel stands up and extends his hand to Ace who looks at it then looks at Lionel's eyes and they shake hands on top of the cage.

JC: Now Ace has sided with Lionel Kingston, Gary Mac has been screwed royally by both of these guys, I cant believe it Randy this sickens me. Why would a referee side with one of the wrestlers, Ace will pay for this.

RW: It looks like not only Switchblade and Lionel want Mac dethroned but also Ace, this could set up Ace verses Mac which would be a great match.

Kingston reaches down and pulls up a bloody and dizzy Gary Mac, Lionel lifts him into a bear hug and rams his back against the cage before turning around and hitting a spinebuster against the cage roof. Lionel stands up and Ace just stands there watching Kingston destroy Gary Mac. Kingston with a sick look in his eyes grabs the baseball bat with the barbed wire and hoists it up before bringing it down across the already bloodied head of Gary Mac. He then begins moving it from size to side causing Mac to shouting in pain.

RW: Lionel has decided to really take it to Gary Mac, he is in a dominate position and it looks like Lionel will be the new World Champion.

JC: This is a sad day, where is Divine Intervention they should do some Intervention in this match.

Finally Lionel stops and he stands up raising the bat up high to a roar from the crowd and Ace applauds it. Lionel throws it to the side before he begins to climb on top of the third cage whilst Gary Mac is still down covered in blood. He stands with his back to the cage and leaps off with a moonsault onto Gary Mac who is now motionless on top of the cage.

RW: Lionel Kingston with The Kings Fall from the third cage onto the second onto Gary Mac, and the champion looks like he has nothing left anymore.

JC: I cant watch this anymore Randy, I might be done with commentating after this match, Lionel is a blatant cheat.

The crowd cheer as Lionel slowly gets to his feet and stands above Gary Mac, he looks at all the SFT fans on their feet and a "Kingston" chant breaks out. They want to see Gary Mac lose as Lionel pulls up the almost lifeless body of Gary Mac and hoists him up onto his shoulders onto the FU position.

RW: It looks like Lionel is about to hit Succumb to Darkness on Gary Mac right here off the top of the cages, this is about to win it for Lionel Kingston and he is about to become the new SFT World Champion.

JC: I'm not even looking through the gaps in my eyes anymore, I don't want to see this Randy.

Lionel Jumps off the top, launching Gary Mac from his shoulders in a flip, crashing himself into the second cage as Gary lands face-first onto the first. Upon impact he bounces off the first cage and rolls, falling another few feet to the tables below. He completely crashes through both other the tables, landing on the third but not through. Gary is covered in barbed wire, tacks, blood, salt and splinted wood. The bell rings.

Lionel doesn't celebrate, only jumping to the first cage and walking to the edge. He looks down, staring at the very bloody Gary Mac. Lionel quickly turns around and jumps off, moonsaulting through the tables and Gary Mac, finishing the third table off as they hit the ground. The crowd pops, celebrating at Lionel's maneuver.

RW: THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR!

JC: THAT WAS AWESOME!

Winner: LIONEL KINGSTON via Gary Going Through Tables

CLOSING

JC: Ace is climbing down I think he about to hand Lionel the World title after he just won the match.

RW: Well he has the title in his hands right now.

Lionel slowly pulls himself up as Ace looks at the title and then looks as Gary Mac crawls through the broken wood, Lionel extends his hands to be handed the championship but Ace levels him with the title across the head knocking him out.

JC: Now Ace has just smashed the title across the skull of Lionel Kingston why the hell did he do that?

RW: We will find out right now look.

The fans are booing as he hands the SFT World Championship to Gary Mac and then helps him walk towards the back, Ace holds up Gary's hand with the SFT Championship.

JC: The now former World Heavyweight Champion is walking away with the title right now and Ace seems to have joined Divine Intervention.

RW: I thought those two hated each other, now they have joined forces?

With the fans booing Retribution goes off air with Gary Mac holding the SFT World title up high with Ace helping him do it.
