We open with Becky Chande standing by. BECKY CHANDE Ladies and gentlemen I’m here outside Eli Buchanan’s locker room, hoping to get comments about what occurred in last week’s Captains Challenge Match between The Mat Crusaders and The Golden Trio. The locker room door opens and out comes Saul Asper, wearing a #FuckEdwards T-shirt. He looks smugly at the camera. SAUL ASPER Greetings Ms Chande, I’d say this was a privilege, but that would be a lie.Becky rolls her eyes. BECKY CHANDE Hello Saul, I was hoping to speak with your client. (tries to look around him) Is there any chance to speak with him?SAUL ASPER(laughing) No, Ms Chande, the only person you’ll get the opportunity to speak with is yours truly. Eli brought me in specifically so he wouldn’t have to deal with you, or Nelson, or any other second rate journalist who would try to put a microphone in his face. Eli Buchanan is completely focused on one thing now, and that’s competing in the ring.He points to the locker room. SAUL ASPER Right now he’s in there talking strategy with his tag team partner and formulating a plan to insure that Carl Whitaker beats Alex Kincaid BECKY CHANDE Speaking of “formulating a plan”, last week it appears things didn’t go according to plan for Eli and his teammates. First Eli was pinned by Matt Pulver and then Carl Whitaker knocked James Edwards out. SAUL ASPER(Holding up a finger) Accidentally knocked him out. Carl Whitaker has assured both Eli and myself that was a mistake. The thing is though, none of this is Carl’s fault. James Edwards was the captain. The video footage clearly shows that Edwards grabbed Pulver and ordered him to knock him out. If he had thought it out more clearly, or better yet learn how to hold an opponent still, it would have been him and Mr Whitaker facing off with Cutlass and Ranger Joe.BECKY CHANDE That’s Mike Musket.SAUL ASPER His name doesn’t matter, he and Cutlass should count their blessings that they don’t have to face off with the real Golden Duo tonight. Back to Edwards though. The way I look at it, he’s to blame for Eli being eliminated last week. If he had done his job of as captain that would never happened. The Hardliners regrettably put too much faith in him and it cost them and they’ve vowed to never let it happen again. From this point on, you won’t sse the Hardliners in matches where they’re randomly thrown together with someone else. They are the greatest team Lion’s Road has ever seen. There’s no one here or in any other organization that can beat them and judging from the lack of tag teams around here, there’s no one who wants to.BECKY CHANDE Will actually there are two contenders. By way of this victory over former champion, Scotty Latimer several weeks ago, Hertiage Champion, James Edwards has a World Tag Team Title shot banked. As well, because of his pinfall over Eli Buchanan last week, Matt Pulver has earned a title shot as well.SAUL ASPER Explain to me exactly how that works! You don’t earn title shots for the World Tag Team Titles in singles matches or in elimination matches. You earn them by winning TAG TEAM matches. As for James Edwards victory over Latimer a few weeks back, Latimer isn’t here anymore. The minute Eli pinned him, he was out the door; so long, thanks for the fish. His win mean, as will as Pulver’s, means absolutely nothing. If either of them wamt a shot ae Eli Buch…The locker room door opened and Eli Buchanan steps out, wearing his dragon mask. He grabs the microphone from Becky. ELI BUCHANAN I want James Edwards. Anyplace, anytime. BECKY CHANDE(Taking the microphone from Eli) Are you saying you would be willing to defend the titles against James Edwards and a partner of his choice? ELI BUCHANAN Title match or not, I want Edwards.
He points at Asper’s #FuckEdwards shirt and walks back into the locker room. SAUL ASPER Wait Eli, let’s not be hasty about this.He quickly follows his client into the locker room, slamming the door behind him. Becky turns to the camera. BECKY CHANDE That might be the best interview I’ve ever gotten from him. Well there you have it, Eli Buchanan has laid down the challenge to James Edwards. Will the Heritage Champion accept? Sam, Chad, let's head to you guys! SAM HEWITT From the Sunshine City! Orillia, Ontario! Hello fight fans, I'm Sam Hewitt alongside Minnesota's own, Chad Gomez. CHAD GOMEZ Hi. SAM HEWITT Tonight is the culmination of last week's Captain Fall Challenge. Even teams remain, the golden tandem of Julian Cutlass and Mike Musket will get all tangled up with Ben Chrenshaw and Matt Pulver in our main event. Plus, one half of the World Tag Team Champions - Carl Whitaker returns to singles action to take on Alex Kincaid, a man looking to take a giant shortcut on his road to redemption because a title opportunity will be his, if he's able to score a win over Whitaker this evening. CHAD GOMEZ Don't sleep on this, Sambo. Alan Envy and Dexter Severin - a grudge match. They don't get along whatsoever and that was made pretty clear last week during the Captain's Fall Challenge, but this week... they get a chance to let all that aggression out by going one on one.SAM HEWITT Before we get to all that, though... I'm being told that AJ Knight is backstage with something to say...
Our feed cuts backstage where AJ Knight stands in front of a set of lockers, an icy cold glare in his eyes. AJ KNIGHT This isn't the usual setup... but Nelson made the call to do it here. Becky, I don't blame her for not wanting to get involved in this... but regardless, I've still got a challenge to make. I hate you, Jacob... and I don't say that out of anger, I say that as fact. Two weeks back when I snapped your finger... I can honestly say that it was the first time in my life that I've ever enjoyed hurting another living being.AJ's glare turns into a sadistic smirk. AJ KNIGHT And Jacob, I want to do it again!The smirk and the eyes makes for a very chilling image of fan favourite AJ Knight. AJ KNIGHT There are no rules that stand to contain this hatred. So, I thought about it long and hard. What kind of match could be used to settle this once and for all? I thought about the months you spent running from me and thought... why not a steel cage? There's nowhere to run and certainly nowhere for you to hide. It'd the be the perfect circle for all this...Footage is briefly shown of Hammerstein striking AJ with the chair inside a steel cage back in July when Knight fought Eli Buchanan. AJ KNIGHT But the cage would only limit what I'm able to do. The things that I want to do to you... they just can't be done inside the ring. Then I thought... an I Quit Match. Oh, how I'd love to embarrass you by making you scream those words. But... you might just say to weasel out of an ass kicking, or as Pulver reminded me - one of your boys, or even your woman - could save you by throwing in the towel before I truly get to unleash all the hell I want on you.AJ chuckles. AJ KNIGHT So, I came up with the perfect one. He pauses for dramatic effect. AJ KNIGHT A match that is like no other. One that is perhaps the most feared in all of professional wrestling and one that has never taken back in Lion's Road. One so violent, so dangerous that most promotions won't even sanction it.You can almost hear the fans holding their breath in anticipation. AJ KNIGHT Texas... death... match.A pop from the audience. AJ's eyes stare the viewer down. AJ KNIGHT I'm going to end this, Jacob. Once and for all.
DON'T GO AWAY!
HORSEMEN COLLIDE AFTER THE BREAK!

We come back from break with Dexter Severin heavily favouring his right arm as he heads into the corner, Alan Envy follows him in and gets a boot to the gut for his troubles. Severin blasts the former Heritage Heavyweight Champion with a right hand, but only stuns Envy momentarily and the Horsemen is back on the attack - grabbing Severin's bad arm and driving his shoulder into it! Severin yelps and falls against the ropes as referee Robbie Morris backs Envy up. Envy obeys the command for about two seconds before he reaches between the top and middle ropes, grabs Severin's bad arm and pulls it back through. SAM HEWITT Alan Envy using the top rope to add extra torque on Dexter Severin's already injured arm. In case you missed it, let's show you what happened during the break.Envy breaks at four and backs off long enough for Severin to pull his arm back inside, then he strikes again - grabbing it and twisting it around as he pulls him into the centre of the ring. Severin doesn't try to block it, but instead wallops him with a forearm! Envy cranks harder on the arm wringer then smashes his elbow down across. Severin falls to his knees in pain, but Envy yanks him back up and tucks the arm behind as he hoists him up then slams him back down! Envy leaps onto his back, clasping the arm in a single chickenwing hold as he presses down on the back of Severin's head to increase the pressure. Severin shakes his head no when Morris asks him if he wants to submit. Envy releases the hold, but lays the arm straight out and drives a knee into it. Severin yells out in pain, then in pure agony when Envy begins grinding the knee across it. CHAD GOMEZ I bet that feels nice! Like trying to get the air bubbles out of a sticker! Envy stands up and pulls Severin to his feet, but Tragick comes alive with forearms! He backs Envy up into the ropes then whips him across to the opposite set, Severin clearly says fuck it and runs full steam at Envy with his bad arm extended. Envy boots him in the shoulder! Severin doubles over, cursing as he holds his arm. Envy hooks them... TIGER DRIVER!Instead of holding for a pin, Envy throws Severin's legs aside. The man known as Tragick struggles to get onto all fours, but the former Heritage Heavyweight Champion wraps his arm around Severin's bad wing, then slips his other arm across the throat! KATAHAJIME!Envy pulls Severin backwards with him, not allowing the former Midnight Horsemen any time to attempt and fight it off. Severin uses his one free hand, trying to grab Envy's arm and relieve the pressure on his carotid arteries. BUT ENVY SQUEEZES HARDER!Severin's face is turning blue! HIS HAND GOES UP WEAKLY!He tries to grab Envy's arm again... A SINGLE TAP!Morris calls it! Envy holds the submission a few seconds longer then shoves the man who was his ally just one week earlier off of him. SAM HEWITT Alan Envy has been clamouring for a rematch with James Edwards and he just might get it after that impressive showing.CHAD GOMEZ As well he should! He made a defense, he earned the rematch clause. SAM HEWITT He took the arm of Dexter Severin and beat it up even more than Severin did himself, then slapped on the Katahajime and looked like he was prepared choke Severin unconscious if he had to, but Severin taps just once and that's enough for young Robbie Morris to stop this bout. Severin lays face down, holding his arm as stage hands surround him and put ice on his arm which causes him to get up, shove the assistance away before rolling out of the ring and huffing up the aisle to the back. Alan Envy stands inside the ring to get his arm raised by Morris, then motions around his waist before yelling into the camera. ALAN ENVY Edwards! I'm taking that belt back!
THE HARD-HITTING ACTION WILL CONTINUE AFTER THIS AD BREAK!

The aura of intimidation surrounding Alexander Irvine is enough to make interns, roadies, and other talents steer clear of him while he loads his plate high with grilled chicken in the catering room. Only someone with balls of steel would even approach the former Marine--or someone with a crazy request. Enter James Edwards. The Burning Heart sidesteps people and wayward chairs. He takes his place in line behind the Unnatural. JAMES EDWARDS Alexander.Irvine stops filling his plate and turns around. He eyes the smaller man up once or twice, snorts like a bull, and promptly turns back around. Edwards cocks an eyebrow and starts to fill a bowl up with salad. JAMES EDWARDS I know we ain't talked much. Hell, I think that's the most either of us has said to the other. Anyways I ain't gonna take up much of your time. Eli is runnin' mouth about me, and I wanna shut his ass up. I got a guaranteed shot at the tag belts. You've won em' twice with different partners, and I know shit didn't go right in Japan, but I'm willing to let that go if you are. What do you say?Irvine seems more interested in comparing the nutritional information of Pollo Cola Zero and Diet Pollo Cola. JAMES EDWARDS Eh, did you hear me?Irvine holds up the miniature bottles one at a time like he is trying to balance a scale. Edwards waits another moment and finally puts his hand on Irvine's shoulder. That is enough to draw the former Heritage Champion's attention. JAMES EDWARDS Did you hear what I to say. ALEXANDER IRVINE I did. I don't team with fuck ups.Edwards seems a bit taken back for a second, but gets snapped back to reality when Irvine lets that wolfish smirk of his dance across his face like a taunt and a insult. JAMES EDWARDS What makes you think…ALEXANDER IRVINE Listen boy, I don’t have time for this song and dance shit you like to play. This pity party routine you’ve been playing with ever since Jules exposed your yellow belly while caving in your skull. Your venom, no better than a snake in the grass or coiled up viper. You turned your back on Lion’s Road once when you signed a contract to Max Japan...I don’t team with traitors, and I don’t show mercy to cowards. Now leave me alone and go enjoy your salad like a good little fairy.With that Irvine pushes Edwards roughly in the chest, staggering Edwards a bit. But the Burning Heart comes right back, shoving the seasoned veteran with two hands which causes him to drop the plate of chicken back all over the table. Once Irvine regains his balance the two men exchange a momentary glare before charging in on one another. They start trading blows back and forth until Irvine over extends himself to grab Edwards by the throat, getting countered with a drop toe hold that sends the Irvine crashing into the table spilling food and the like all over him. Enraged he quickly flips over and starts to get to one knee, but arena officials hop in between the two men as words are exchanged, Edwards slowly being escorted out of the room.

The camera goes backstage where we are greeted once again by the towering form of Alexander Irvine, madder than a hornet as he stomps around the backstage area. ALEXANDER IRVINE Where the fuck did you go Edwards you piece of shit!He opens a few doors he comes across and peers in real quick, screaming Edward's name. He comes up to a few stagehands in the back talking around a soda machine.ALEXANDER IRVINE You guys seen that asshole Edwards anywhere?
The men shake their heads but point to a flyer posted on the machine, Irvine pushes them out of the way and steps forward, the camera pans in enough so all can read the flyer. and written in blood over all the other matches reads GPWS HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP WHITE PIG (c) vs. LORD ZENKI悪魔旅団 DEMON BRIGADE ALEXANDER IRVINEWhat the fuck is this sh...Before another word can come out of his mouth Irvine turned around and hit with a black mist that sends him stumbling down the hallway. As he stumbles down the hall a trembling roar can be heard behind the camera, the cameraman begins to shake as a black mass comes roaring into view like a demonic fireball from behind him that body checks Irvine and sends him crashing into a fire extinguisher on the wall that starts to spew its white cloud into the hall. Arena officials come pouring out of doors to attended to Irvine, the camera man turns quickly to see the figure of the attacker as he turns before stepping back into the veil of fog.

DON'T MOVE A MUSCLE!
HAMMERSTEIN RESPONDS TO AJ'S CHALLENGE - NEXT!

Post by Office on Nov 14, 2017 21:08:55 GMT -5
SAM HEWITT Earlier tonight, AJ Knight made his challenge to Hammerstein for next week's match to be a Texas Death Match. I'm being told that Hammerstein's response to AJ's challenge is ready to be aired, so let's go ahead and show it.
Somewhere in the back sits Jacob Hammerstein. Nestled among the production crates, the image of him is quite striking as he's wearing a white straitjacket that appears bloodstained. Hammerstein's face, though glancing down has a visible grin on it. HAMMERSTEIN Why a straitjacket...? Why?He chuckles. HAMMERSTEIN Maybe all this talk about ol' Hammer losing his mind, fighting in an asylum are true. A hearty chuckle. HAMMERSTEIN Maybe all the conniving, all the evil deeds... maybe they had a deleterious effect on my psychological well being. Or maybe, in layman's terms, for you AJ and these fans to understand. Maybe the cheese has finally, and completely, slid off my cracker.Hammer's grin disappears and he shakes his head before raising his voice. HAMMERSTEIN That's where you're wrong. I'm not insane, I'm very mentally sound. The reason for the straitjacket is... your safety, AJ.The grin returns. HAMMERSTEIN See, AJ... to quote the movie Brokeback Mountain. "I wish I knew how to quit you". Of course, there's no homosexual context here, but hurting you, breaking you, bloodying you up... that's the best drug in the world and I don't want to get clean. When I gnashed my teeth on the torn flesh of your forehead, it awakened something in me that I never could have imagined existed. He smiles and chuckles. HAMMERSTEIN Hurting you... gets me off... and when you broke my finger, well... that pain gets me off too.
The whisper of the last part makes it all the more eerie. HAMMERSTEIN Now there's a no contact clause and I've been a good boy, haven't I, Mandy? I've kept my hands to myself, but you see... they say idle hands are the devil's workshop and well, let's just say that there's a blueprints being drawn up inside my head. That's why when you said you wanted a Texas Death Match... I knew I couldn't mess up my chance by rearranging your facial features tonight. I've gotta keep my eye on the ball. If I ripped you up tonight, there are penalties and fines. I'm fine with waiting, AJ. I'm a patient boy, but I asked for this straitjacket just in case.He wiggles around in it, showing that he can't escape. HAMMERSTEIN The name of this match baffles me. I don't think anyone's ever been killed in a Texas Death Match, at least... not yet. I think I understand though, that as a participant in the match, you've got to do whatever it takes to put your opponent down for the count. I know the good folks in the athletic commission don't want to be held responsible for two top stars fighting to the death like a couple of gladiators.
To them and to you, the Texas Death Match... that term is symbolic.
But I'm a literal guy. So when you uttered those three words, I got a funny little feeling in the pit of my stomach... I take that term to heart. See, I know what's happened between us and there's got to be a reckoning. Always. I'm coming into Barrie next week knowing full well that I may not ever leave. Because I know in the dark little heart of yours that you try to hide, you want to kill me. Every time you think of me calling your sister a whore.He laughs. HAMMERSTEIN You know it, I now it. These people who chant your name and curse mine, they know it. Those feelings you try to hide…. I hold them out to you, AJ! I'm exposing my heart to you. I want to kill you, AJ. I want to hold your heart in my hands as it beats its final beats and hand it to Davey as an early Christmas present.🎶Last Christmas I gave you AJ’s heart but the very next...🎶
The transmission is cut off and the screen goes to black before switching to the announce position. Hewitt & Gomez sit, stunned at what they've heard.

"Cry for the Bad Man" finishes up as we're back from break, Carl Whitaker hands his title off to Xavier Price. JAKE AARONS Ladies and gentlemen, this is a singles bout that is to be fought over a fifteen minute time limit with one fall, one submission or a knockout to decide the winner! Introducing first! He fights out of Bearing, Alberta! He weighs in at two hundred and thirty pounds... ALEX KINCAID!Kincaid leaps onto the ropes, holding a finger into the air for a moment then hops down and hands his robe to his wife, Alyssa, before stretching out a bit. JAKE AARONS His opponent fights out of Beaumont, Texas! He weighs in at two hundred and twenty eight pounds... CARL WHITAKER!Whitaker removes his Riberia steakhouse jacket and towel, hands it off to a stage hand and gets ready to go. JAKE AARONS Your referee for this bout is Xavier Price!A lone member of the audience shouts, "WOW DUDE" and Price gives him a smile and wave. SAM HEWITT Evenly matched fighters here. Same height and a mere two pound advantage for Kincaid over Whitaker. Kincaid, the veteran while Whitaker despite his appearance, is twenty four years old with five years under his belt.CHAD GOMEZ What are you trying to say?SAM HEWITT Some people look younger, some look older than their actual age.CHAD GOMEZ The man's had twins since he was nineteen - that'll age ya.
SAM HEWITT Touche.The bell sounds and a collar and elbow tie-up begins the bout. Alex Kincaid backs Carl Whitaker up into the corner but the Bull bulls his way back out, still engaged in the lock up. Kincaid uses the World Tag Team Champion's momentum against him and clamps on a side headlock. Whitaker initially tries to fight it, but then opts to break by launching an elbow into the midsection. Kincaid's base is widened and Whitaker backs him up into the ropes and shoots him off. The Bullet King rebounds off the ropes and Whitaker's knife edge chop attempt is ducked! Whitaker turns back and eats a dropkick that sends him down to the mat! Whitaker rolls out to the apron and sits there for a moment, Price backing Kincaid up and telling him to allow Whitaker a chance to get back inside on his own merits. Whitaker shakes his head then lays down, rolls back inside and gets up to his feet. The two engage in another lock-up, Whitaker pulls an arm wringer and then goes to wring it through but eats a knee to the gut before Kincaid turns it around on him! Whitaker struggles, trying to break free of the Bullet King's grip. He decides to drop back, slinging Kincaid over top of him in an arm drag like fashion. The Alberta native holds onto the hold despite being on the mat, transitioning into a hammer lock. SAM HEWITT You've got to wonder if Whitaker might be a little rusty, having not competed in singles action here in Lion's Road since he defeated Mark Storm back in July. CHAD GOMEZ It's possible - he's been very dedicated to honing his tag team craft. You become so reliant on reaching for a tag in times of trouble, it can throw you off your game a bit if no one's standing there.Kincaid tries to control Whitaker on the mat, but Ol' Stonehands manages to fight back up to his feet. He does a counter into a hammerlock of his own, but transitions that into a standing side headlock and heaves Kincaid up and over, down to the mat! Whitaker tries to work on the hold, but Kincaid swoops him over into a cradle pin! 1... ... 2-KICK OUT! Whitaker rolls back over and gets up, keeping Kincaid locked in the headlock. Despite his best efforts, Kincaid does some bulling of his own and backs Whitaker into the ropes. As Price calls for the break, Kincaid whips him out. On the return, a low dropkick finds its mark! Whitaker falls down onto the mat face first, Kincaid jumps on him and grabs him by the arm, yanking him up and applying an arm wringer once more. He transitions it into a hammerlock, Whitaker reaches back with his free hand and tries to pry Kincaid's grip open, but to no avail. Whitaker then goes and puts himself in a very vulnerable position, sticking his head between Kincaid's legs... and lifts! BACK BODY DROP! NO! SUNSET FLIP BY KINCAID! 1... ... 2... ... 3-NO! Whitaker kicks out by clamping his legs together on Kincaid's head! Both men roll away in opposite directions and get to their feet at the same time. Whitaker throws a right hook, but Kincaid ducks and grabs it into a hammerlock! Whitaker cusses as the Bullet King pushes his opponent's up higher to increase the pressure. Whitaker cracks him with a back elbow smash not once, but twice and breaks free! With Kincaid staggered, Whitaker grabs him and Irish whips him... but it gets countered... INTO A HAMMERLOCK! Whitaker again cusses loudly as Kincaid pushes on the back of his knee, Carl Whitaker buckles faster than Kincaid anticipates and he goes lunging into the turnbuckles! Whitaker gets free of the hold as Kincaid stumbles away in a daze. CHAD GOMEZ I couldn't tell if Kincaid pushed too hard on the knee, or Whitaker just seized the opportunity - either way, he's free of the hold.Whitaker, favouring his arm, grabs Kincaid and unleashes his mighty Texas sized European uppercut on him! Kincaid staggers across the ring and falls to his knees near the ropes. Whitaker pulls Kincaid away from the ropes and then blasts him with a forearm smash, the Bullet King falls against the ropes and springs back out into a second European uppercut! Kincaid goes back against the ropes and stays there. Whitaker pulls him out, turns him and wallops him with a third that sends him down to the mat! Whitaker looks to the corner, then shakes his head... dropping down for a north-south lateral press. 1... ... 2... SHOULDER UP! Whitaker clubs his forearm against Kincaid's stomach several times before pulling him back up to a vertical base with him. He holds Kincaid's head with his left, then hits him in the throat with a thrust sending the Bullet King staggering away! Whitaker raises his fist, calling for the right hook to a pop. KINCAID WITH A SUPERKICK! Whitaker turns and stumbles, falling to a knee. Kincaid, who fell to the mat after his kick, gets up and sizes up Whitaker, who pivots on his knee. Kincaid goes for the Big Fat Kill superkick, but Whitaker catches it! He chucks Kincaid's leg aside and blasts him with a lariat from one knee! Kincaid falls down, Whitaker does too! Price's ten count begins, Whitaker clutches the top rope and begins pulling himself up while Kincaid crawls to the corner and begins to do the same. Whitaker turns and spots Kincaid, rushes in... the Bullet King turns around and gets hoisted up into the air! Whitaker goes to turn... BEAUMONT BU-NO! Kincaid hits him with the bell clap! Whitaker drops Kincaid, who yanks the Bull's legs out from underneath him! SHARPSHOOTER?! Kincaid goes to put his legs through, but Whitaker reaches up, pulls him into a small package! 1... ... 2... ... 3! Kincaid kicks out a second too late, Whitaker rolls away holding his arm. The Bullet King looks disappointed at the result, but goes over and says a few words to Whitaker before Price backs him off. Whitaker gets up and nods, Kincaid extends his hand and Whitaker gives it a shake. Kincaid raises Whitaker's arm and exits. The World Tag Team Champion takes in the reception. SAM HEWITT Great sportsmanship shown by Alex Kincaid even in defeat, shaking the hand of Carl Whitaker.CHAD GOMEZ I dunno, Sambo. I think he was brown nosing, but that doesn't get you title shots here.SAM HEWITT Carl Whitaker picks up a win in his first singles match since July, turning back Alex Kincaid in a spirited bout. I'll give to AK, though - he's on his way to being a helluva fighter here in Lion's Road.

Julian Cutlass stands backstage. He wears the black “V∞” over his torso. The King of Lions Championship remains around his waist. With a freshly shaved scalp, both his head and the title seem to reflect the overhead lighting. Becky Chande, several inches shorter, stands next to him with a microphone. BECKY CHANDE: Julian, you’ve been the King of Lions Champion for an unearthly 413 days. What inspires you during this historic reign?He has his hands on his hips while he speaks. JULIAN CUTLASS: You know, Becky, I’ve always said that I just want to fight the best. Whether here, in Shining Road, or maybe even in Maximum Japan Pro-Wrestling one of these days. I don’t care who the opponent is. I just care that he’s damn good, and that he’s hungry for the championship. BECKY CHANDE: Do you plan on defending the title again in 2017?He smirks. JULIAN CUTLASS: F*** yeah.
BECKY CHANDE: Have you identified a contender?He shrugs. JULIAN CUTLASS: There’s lots of f***ing contenders, Becky. I mean, I know we’ve about made it to reruns around here. But I could give a f*** as long as everyone keeps growing and getting better. You could send me a challenger every f***ing week and it’d suit me just fine.He glances away as Mike Musket steps into the screen, the country bumpkin wearing a coonskin cap. He holds a canoe paddle in one hand and the MAX-J Heavyweight Championship in the other. MIKE MUSKET: Quit yer yappin boy!! This ain’t no debutante ball where all the kings and queens drink champagne!! This is a fightin’ man’s hoedown!! There’s a ring out there down at the end of that aisle and we already got our dance partners a-waitin’!! They go by the names of Cripplett and Pulveron. And Hell I’m thinkin’ that MIGHTY FINE Mike Musket is gonna put on his line dancin’ boots for this one!He cups his hands around his mouth. MIKE MUSKET: AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!He turns to Becky. MIKE MUSKET: Now Little Miss Muffet, all I got to say to you is… get to steppin’!! Cause we got a job to do!!Musket runs off out of the shot and once again leaves Julian Cutlass alone with Becky. The two stare at each other blankly. BECKY CHANDE: So, Julian, I –JULIAN CUTLASS: Gotta go!Not to be left behind by the Man of the Mountain, Julian Cutlass takes off jogging down the corridor as the two champions are officially inbound for the next match.

JAKE AARONS Ladies and gentlemen, this tag team bout is your main event and the finals of the Captain's Fall Challenge! It is to be fought under elimination rules over a thirty minute time limit!
Pop!
JAKE AARONS Introducing first... at a combined weight of three hundred and eighty eight pounds! BEN CHRENSHAW and MATT PULVER!
Chrenshaw says something to Pulver, who nods.
JAKE AARONS Their opponents... at a combined weight of four hundred and fifty eight pounds! JULIAN CUTLASS and MIKE MUSKET!
Musket lets out an AROOO! while Cutlass remains focused.
JAKE AARONS Your referee for this bout is Cordell Garner!
The bell sounds and Matt Pulver circles around with the King of Lions Julian Cutlass. The two each showing an immense amount of respect for one another as they size the other up, but it's the youthful Matt Pulver who strikes first as he initiates a knuckle lock, but grabs Cutlass in a clinch with his free hand. A knee to the gut sets up a front chancery and Matt Wrestling uses this to control the movement of Cutlass, opting to turn him around and back into his corner so that Ben Chrenshaw can tag in. Chrenshaw enters the ring and Garner begins his ten count for Pulver to leave, but he only needs a couple seconds to do so as Pulver releases Cutlass right into Chrenshaw's grip as the Crippler takes over with a front chancery of his own. He slowly backs away from the corner and unleashes a mighty snap suplex then floats over into a grounded side headlock, Chrenshaw tilts his body up - so that a majority of his weight is on top of the King of Lions' chest and making it very hard for the Lion's Road champion to breathe. Cutlass responds by putting his hand in Chrenshaw's face and pushing it backwards. Chrenshaw tries to get free of this, but his head movement allows Cutlass to swing his legs up and get a pair of headscissors applied! Cutlass slowly grinds the hold in, then yanks his left leg out from underneath the Crippler and tries to slap on an armbar but the former Heritage, Iron and Tag Team Champion makes his escape.
SAM HEWITT Excellent escape using the headscissors to leverage himself free! Chrenshaw and Pulver are a surprisingly well oiled machine as a team.
CHAD GOMEZ Sometimes your best enemy is your best ally, you fight a guy enough times - you learn a lot about them.
Chrenshaw doesn't allow Cutlass to get back up though, he grabs a leg and turns Cutlass over... he then grabs the other and crosses them before sliding his own foot in between and tucking Cutlass' foot behind his calf. He falls backwards... INDIAN DEATH LOCK! Chrenshaw gets back up, hold still applied and welcomes Musket to make the save but the MAX-J Heavyweight Champion simply pounds the top turnbuckle - rallying some fan support for the King of Lions Champion. Chrenshaw turns and readjusts his footing, then drops his free leg's knee into the small of Cutlass' back, grabs the head/neck area and drops back, pulling Cutlass with him to initiate the bow and arrow hold! Cutlass is trying to keep cool under the intense pressure and pain of the hold, while Musket directs him to grab the ropes which are within reach. Cutlass grabs the bottom rope and Garner forces the break. Cutlass tries to get up and tag Musket, but Chrenshaw lunges and grabs him in a rear waist hold... pushing him against the ropes and using that momentum to slam him down onto the mat with a backdrop suplex! Chrenshaw smirks as Cutlass lands hard, then rolls to a seated position. The Crippler slithers out of the ring, making Pulver the legal man once again.
SAM HEWITT Chrenshaw and Pulver already making expert use of the automatic tag to keep the pressure on.
CHAD GOMEZ And look at Pulver - right in, and he attacks the leg!
Pulver comes in and immediately attacks the leg, clamping on a single leg lock - tightening his legs against Cutlass! Pulver leans back and lets out a yell, really cranking on the hold. Cutlass sits up and tries to use his left arm to swat Pulver, but the Swedish fighter dodges it. The missed attack helps though as Cutlass and Pulver get turned over. Pulver lets go of the hold, but immediately slaps on a stepover toehold as Cutlass is trying to pry himself across the mat. Pulver then leaps up into back side control and applies a side headlock, before slowly pulling Cutlass' right arm down between his legs... and readjusting his hands... to apply a crossface! Once again, Musket is acting as his partner's eyes - telling him to reach with his feet as the ropes are right behind him. Garner is in position, asking Cutlass if he wants to submit and doesn't see Chrenshaw kick Cutlass' foot away from the ropes. Knowing that means he's close to them, Cutlass tries again and succeeds, Chrenshaw unable to do his trick again as Garner looks up and sees him grab the rope.
CHAD GOMEZ Why's he looking at Chrenshaw!? Cutlass might've tapped while he was gawking away! He would've missed it! Does he want another performance review?
Pulver releases and pulls Cutlass to his feet and much like Chrenshaw, he grabs a waist hold, a front one this time - and pushes Cutlass against the ropes and uses that momentum to belly to belly suplex him. Cutlass is dazed as he quickly tries to get up, sees Pulver and lunges for a takedown but the Swedish star sprawls out and underhooks an arm as he rides Cutlass' body to the mat. He swings his leg over...
and applies the LeBell Lock!
Omaplata crossface!
Whatever name you prefer, Pulver has Cutlass dead to rights in the centre of the ring!
SAM HEWITT Pulver has got the King of Lions in trouble!
Musket climbs through the ropes and stomps Pulver to save his captain! Musket heads right back out, hoping it bought Cutlass enough time. Pulver rolls out of the ring at Chrenshaw's call and the Crippler rushes in, grabs Cutlass' bad leg and yanks it out from underneath him as he tries to crawl to his corner. Chrenshaw nearly eats an upkick as Cutlass turns over and tries to get away, but the English born fighter applies a kneebar! Cutlass grunts and sits up, firing a shot into Chrenshaw's side that echoes throughout the venue and forces him to let go. Cutlass tries to get away, but Chrenshaw again wraps his legs around Cutlass' and grabs at the ankle!
ANKLE HOLD APPLIED!
CHAD GOMEZ Bad news! Bad news! Chrenshaw could make him tap for a third time!
Cutlass grabs his head with his right hand and claws forward with his left, then swings his right hand to the bottom rope to save himself. Chrenshaw lets go at four, then gets up - feigns a slap in Musket's direction to get him riled up a bit and then stomps on Cutlass' wounded leg. Chrenshaw backs off again as Cutlass is still in the ropes, even allowing Cutlass to get right up to his feet. Cutlass is blasted by a forearm shot as he turns around and despite staggering back into the corner, the Blazin' King responds in kind with one of his own! Chrenshaw roars back with one, but Cutlass ducks it and lambasts him as he turns around with a palm strike! Chrenshaw goes down, Cutlass falls onto all fours. Pulver grabs the top rope and is antsy as all hell, waiting for the moment Chrenshaw touches the floor... and he does!
PULVER LEAPS INTO THE RING!
GRABS CUTLASS!
BUTTERFLY LOCK!
DOUBLE UNDERHOOK SUPLEX!
ROLLED THROUGH!
A BUTTERFLY LOCK AGAIN!
Pulver uses this unique position to try and shortcut his way into mount, but Cutlass figures it out and as Pulver lets go - the King of Lions bucks the youngster off of him. Pulver goes for a dropkick as Cutlass tries to get up, but Cutlass drops back down causing him to miss! Cutlass grabs Pulver... rear waist hold...
HIGH ANGLE BACKDROP DRIVER!
CHAD GOMEZ OH GOD!
Pulver lands with little regard for safety, Cutlass crawls toward Musket... the Man of the Mountain reaches in...
SAM HEWITT Here comes Mike Musket!
PULVER ROLLS OUT OF THE RING!
Musket charges in and greets the number one contender to his MAX Japan Heavyweight Championship with an elbow! He follows it up with a knife edge chop, but Chrenshaw ducks! The Crippler goes for a forearm shot, but Musket ducks that and shoves Chrenshaw into the ropes! On the rebound, he hoists him high and slams him down across his knee! THE BACKBREAKER HEARD 'ROUND THE WORLD! Musket makes a lateral press.
1...
...
2-NO!
Musket pulls Chrenshaw to his feet, calling for a lariat! He shoots him in, but Chrenshaw ducks on the rebound. The Crippler springs off the ropes, then blasts Musket with a leg kick! A second! A third! A fourth! Musket drops to a knee from the shots, Chrenshaw grabs him in a front chancery and backs him into the corner! He grabs him in a plume clinch and goes to tee off with a knee, but Musket catches it! He trips him up and goes for the Wolf Trap sharpshooter...
HE TURNS CHRENSHAW OVER!
WOLF TRAP APPLIED!
SAM HEWITT This could be it! Matt Pulver is down on the outside, trying to recover while Chrenshaw is dead to rights, centre of the ring!
Pulver drags Heaven and Hell to get inside the ring, cracking Musket with a forearm to save his partner. Pulver rolls back out, Chrenshaw uses the ropes to assist him in getting to his feet. Musket is on his knees as Chrenshaw turns around. Chrenshaw feigns still being dazed, Musket goes to advance but the Crippler dropkicks him in the knee! Musket falls against the middle rope and Chrenshaw smiles as he grabs Musket's right leg and hoists it up... then stomps it down, driving it into the mat for the double whammy effect. Musket cries out in pain, Chrenshaw stomps on the leg again as he lays on the mat. The Crippler pulls Musket into the centre of the ring and goes for the Wrinkle in Time... the single leg crab...
HE TURNS HIM OVER!
FULLY APPLIED!
Cutlass gets in, unbeknownst to Chrenshaw...
ENZUI STYLE LARIAT!
SAM HEWITT And Cutlass saves the day!
Musket begins getting up as Chrenshaw is down on all fours, trying to shake the cobwebs out. The Man of the Mountain climbs to his feet, he grabs Chrenshaw in a front chancery and hoists him up high... then stalls... stalls... stalls... Chrenshaw's knee comes down, catching Musket in the dome! Chrenshaw lands awkwardly as Musket stumbles! The Crippler falls against the ropes, but manages to regain his footing enough to spring off with a lariat in mind... MUSKET DUCKS!
CORDELL GARNER EATS IT!
The bell sounds! Dr. Pierson hops the rail and slides into the ring, waving the match off. Chrenshaw gets up and is about to go back on the attack, but stage hands prevent him from getting at Musket. Dr. Pierson stands up and tells Chrenshaw the match is over!
Chrenshaw is pissed!
SAM HEWITT Dr. Pierson waving the match off and Ben Chrenshaw is not very happy about it.
CHAD GOMEZ Why would he be!? It's not his job to dodge the referee, it's Garner job to get out of the way!
SAM HEWITT I'm not disagreeing, Chad, I know the job of a referee is not easy but I don't think anyone was expecting Chrenshaw to hit a lariat after he landed very hard on one leg.
Dr. Pierson leaves Garner in the hands of medical staff and talks to Jake Aarons. Cutlass interjects, asking for a second referee but Pierson shakes his head.
JAKE AARONS Ladies and gentlemen, Dr. Nick Pierson has called a stop to the bout - citing that the match cannot continue without the appointed referee.
Cutlass and Musket aren't happy about it and Pulver attempts to calm Chrenshaw down as he's jawing with Pierson over the call. Mandeville Nelson charges down the aisle, chats with Cutlass and Musket briefly before they head to the back. Nelson climbs into the ring, making a beeline for Chrenshaw. He puts his hands up, trying to ease the situation and tells Chrenshaw to head backstage. Pulver pulls him away and the duo exit, the crowd booing the finish.
SAM HEWITT The fans aren't happy, but it's a commission call - I'm sure Mandeville Nelson will have more to say about it later, but for now that's the call that's been made. I'm being told that we're going to head into the post show so be sure to join us there. For Chad Gomez, I'm Sam Hewitt - we'll see you next week!
