February 6, 2011

We open the show with Shannon Skanes entering the arena and he has his usual smug grin on his face. We also see he is wearing a t-shirt which boldly declares "I ended Rated R" with an image of Shannon strangling Rated R at Battle of the Warriors 2011. He is then headed off by Slim Pickens.

Slim Pickens - I could throttle you with a chair shot to the back of your pointy head when you least expect it. I could end you if I wanted to, but I am a man about things.

Shannon Skanes - That's some manly body odor you have going on there, Slim.

Slim Pickens - Look, you want to be a wise ass about this, go right ahead. Tonight I am serving notice to you. This is about more than just being the next CWA champ, which is my goal, but now I also have the goal of teaching you the lesson Rated R never could. I am going to make you a man.

Shannon Skanes - We're going to hunt some raccoons together, are we?

Slim Pickens - You'll need that sense of humor when I send you to the hospital bed next to Ryan Yorke.

Slim storms off while Shannon shakes his head. We then hear "Coming Undone" by Korn while we see images of Moose, Slim Pickens, Michelle McAllister, Jack Spade, Slim Pickens, Pyro, Max Cameron, Emma McIntyre, Slim Pickens, Devon Chaney, Priest, Team SOB, Southern Comfort, Slim Pickens, and Jakob Kore before we head to ringside where Henry Lesher and Ricky Simms are again ready to call tonight's action.

Henry Lesher - Dear Lord, there was a lot of Slim in that opening montage.

Price of Dignity Match

"It's Raining Men" by The Weather Girls plays as Jakob Kore makes his way onto the stage in a dress. The crowd is stunned, though a few are laughing at what they are seeing. We have to wonder if this is a sign of a mental breakdown by Jakob Kore. He stops on stage and looks confused, asking fans what they are laughing about. He then tells the camera that he is here to win a belt tonight before he makes his way down the ramp to ringside, a flowered yellow dress and a stuffed bra really putting the exclamation mark on his look tonight.

Ricky Simms - I am at a loss....

Henry Lesher - I see Norman Bates is playing the role of his mother tonight.

Jakob stands in the ring, a smile on his face as his music fades and we hear "Gold Dust Woman" by Hole play. Kathy Smith comes out to a solid pop from the crowd. She makes her way down the ramp to ringside where she high fives fans. She then grabs the microphone from ring announcer Jen Hawkins before she then steps up onto the ring apron, then steps through the ropes into the ring. She looks Jakob up and down and then sighs.

Kathy Smith - So, we have made tag teams mean something again. The problem in the CWA is that this travesty of a women's division continues to go on with its terrible and lacking ladies, lacking in desire and in numbers. Now, I am going to be blunt here Kore. I told Heidi Hawkins to go home. I then took that belt from her and I told Shannon that the ladies' division needs to be completely revamped. He agreed.

Kathy is interrupted as "Motherfucker of the Year" by Motley Crue plays and Shannon Skanes steps out onto the stage, still wearing the T-shirt which proclaims his ending of Rated R's career. The crowd boos his appearance.

Shannon Skanes - Now, see, this is the problem I have with things in this company. I never told Kathy to take the belt from Heidi. I don't have a problem with you telling her to go home since she is essentially useless to me. Women like Emma and Michelle are useful as they produce winning results. I will continue to challenge them to get better and they won't lower themselves to participate in the degrading matches women in the Originals bunch will. Kathy, you want to take that belt? Next week, Kathy gets to face off with Heidi Hawkins and any other woman.... let me repeat that for Jakob there, WOMAN, who wants to be the Anarchy Playmate champ, has to be the one to strip little Kathy there down.

Kathy Smith - I'll never agree to that.

Shannon Skanes - Then I might have to fire you.

Vesuvius appears on stage behind Shannon and clotheslines him to the back of the neck, sending him face first to the steel stage. He then places him in a camel clutch while Heidi Hawkins emerges with her title belt over her shoulder.

Heidi Hawkins - Your sponsor doesn't agree with your plans for the title. Next week, he challenges you to man up and face Slim Pickens while I defend my title against any woman who wants to fight me. I'm not useful to you? Then start using me right, boss man.

Vesuvius finally releases Shannon and gets to his feet before smiling and winking at Kathy inside the ring. He then raises the arm of Heidi Hawkins and tells the camera she is a real woman. Inside the ring, Jakob Kore asks Kathy for her autograph and she rolls her eyes before she heads out of the ring. Jakob then talks to the referee and says a few things to her. She shrugs and tells him there isn't anything she can do.

Ricky Simms - Kore says he wins by count out.

Henry Lesher - He wins the evening gown competition tonight. That has to count for something before he butchers us all in the shower.

Jakob rolls himself out of the ring, heads over to the timekeeper and then rings the bell himself. He raises his hands and tells the camera he is the winner and he will be a women's champion in the CWA. The crowd has a mixed reaction to this and we mercifully then head backstage.

Pyro is seen exiting his locker room on his way to the ring when he is headed off by Emma McIntyre in a night that is full of backstage confrontations so far.

Emma McIntyre - Am I being set up?

Pyro - For what?

Emma McIntyre - If I am being set up here and you're going to align yourself with Max and Shannon, I swear...

Pyro - Whoa there, Emma, back up! I have a lot of history with those two. I trust them as far as I can throw them. I spent a lot of time in a stable with Max Cameron and it got me nowhere. The idea I would align with him now is laughable.

Emma McIntyre - Funny things happen in this business every day.

Pyro - Not that funny.

Emma McIntyre - I am not screwing around here. If this turns out to be a set up, you're done.

Pyro - What if you choose to align with them?

Emma McIntyre - I'd rather quit than side with management who acts that way.

She storms off while Pyro continues on his way to the ring.

Max Cameron Memorial Battle Royal

"Kush" by Dr. Dre plays as Pyro emerges onto the stage and he receives a solid ovation from the crowd. He stands on stage and soaks that up and then he makes his way down the ramp to ringside. He looks over at Henry Lesher and shakes his head, apparently still not happy with the CWA color commentator. He then steps up onto the ring apron before stepping through the ropes into the ring. He tests the ropes while his music fades and then we hear "Hell's Bells" by AC/DC. The crowd boos as Max Cameron makes his way onto the stage and he looks down into the ring at Pyro with a scowl across his face. He pauses on the stage and tells the camera that these fans don't deserve to cheer him anyway. He then makes his way down the ramp to ringside before he pulls himself onto the ring apron and then steps through the ropes into the ring. He has a few words with Pyro while his music fades and then we hear "Showstopper" by Toby Mac and Slim Pickens comes out to the loudest cheers of the night so far. He stands on stage and looks down into the ring at his opponents. He looks out to the crowd and smiles before he makes his way down the ramp to ringside.

Ricky Simms - Moments after Emma worried that Pyro and max may align, here is Slim in a fight to determine that right now.

Henry Lesher - I cannot recall a match with this much suck in it at once.

Slim pulls himself onto the ring apron and then steps through the ropes into the ring. He then ducks a punch from Max while the referee calls for the bell to start the match. Slim starts landing punches to the jaw on Max, backing him to the middle of the ring. He then takes a chop block from Pyro. Pyro then tries to whip Slim over the top rope, but Slim grabs the top rope and keeps himself inside the ring before turning and lands a series of forearm smashes to the jaw on Pyro, backing him up to the middle of the ring where he trips over a kneeling Max Cameron. Slim then takes turns between putting the boots to each of his downed foes, the fans cheering him on.

Ricky Simms - Insane pace to this one as Slim is already fighting both men at once.

Henry Lesher - I think that speaks more to how bad they are than to how good he is.

Slim stands Max up, whips him into the corner buckle and then charges in for a shoulder block, but Max catches him with a raised knee to the side of the head. He then grabs Slim around the throat and gives him a choke slam to the mat. Pyro then gets to his feet and stands nose to nose with Max while the two jaw at one another. Slim uses the ropes to get to his feet and then takes a double chin kick from both max and Pyro which sends him over the top rope and out to the floor. Pyro then goes for a high five with Max and Max hip tosses Pyro over the top rope and out to the floor which allows the referee to then call for the bell and Max wins his own memorial match.

Ricky Simms - Well, the fans don't like that.

Henry Lesher - He had the least amount of suck in there. That's saying a lot.

Slim slips back into the ring and tackles Max Cameron down to the mat. He starts choking the downed Max while the fans cheer Slim on. Slim then is pulled off of Max Cameron by security team members. The crowd starts a chant for Slim as he is dragged away from the ring while fighting to get back at Max Cameron and telling him that this is not over.

Shannon Skanes is backstage with Wyatt Gibson, standing just outside of Shannon's office.

Wyatt Gibson - Shannon, Kathy isn't happy with the way you talked to her out there.

Shannon Skanes - I think I can handle my wife, Wyatt, but thanks for your concern.

Wyatt Gibson - Between that and your challenge to CWA legends, I just wonder if you're biting off more than you can chew.

Shannon Skanes - No legend will show up. I ended Rated R and that will warn the rest of them off.

Wyatt Gibson - Well, there is that open invitation and...

Shannon opens his office door and is attacked with a chair shot to the head from Parker Davis. The crowd watching this on the big screen in the arena goes wild as Parker unleashes furious chair shots to the ribs on the owner while Wyatt retreats quickly. Parker then kneels next to Shannon, a smile on his face.

Parker Davis - Moose wanted me to say hi. Invitation accepted.

Parker throws the chair down at the CWA owner and heads off before security team members can reach the scene, thanks to them having their hands full with Slim Pickens.

Tag Gauntlet

Team SOB walks out onto the stage while "Bonecracker" by Shocore plays. They get a solid ovation as they make their way down the ramp towards the ring. They then stop at ringside and then talk among themselves at ringside before pulling themselves onto the ring apron. They step through the ropes into the ring and then their music fades. Before the next theme music starts, Devon Chaney and Priest are already inside the ring which causes the referee to call for the bell. All four men fight inside the ring while the crowd cheers. Blair and Steve exchange knife edge chops with Chaney and Priest. Priest and Hawkins then brawl their way through the ropes and out to the floor.

Ricky Simms - I guess Blair and Chaney are the legal men to start this gauntlet match.

Henry Lesher - Well, at least the tag titles are almost important now. Now if Leech and Rated R were to enter the fray here, that would be something to behold.

Blair ducks a right hook from Devon Chaney before giving him a knee to the gut and then an axe handle smash to the back. He then gives Devon a power bomb to the mat where he goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Chaney. Blair then stands Chaney up, whips him off the ropes and misses a clothesline as Chaney ducks that and then he gives Blair a series of forearm smashes to the jaw which back him into a neutral corner. On the floor, Priest slams Hawkins' head into the steel guard railing and then he heads to his corner where he can await the tag. Chaney whips Blair to the opposite corner and then gives him a kick to the gut followed by a vertical suplex to the mat. Chaney then stands Blair up, gives him a second vertical suplex to the mat and then goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out as we see Hawkins taking his place in Team SOB's corner. On the floor outside the ring, Olivia Maine has finally arrived and she is trying to get herself into things, cheering her team on.

Ricky Simms - Not sure why Olivia was late coming out.

Henry Lesher - Who cares? No one missed her.

Inside the ring, Devon stands Blair up and pulls him to his corner where he tags in Priest. The two of them then give Blair a double vertical suplex, holding him in the air to let him think about it before sending him crashing to the mat. Chaney then leaves the ring while Priest places Blair in a nerve hold, hands on the shoulders of Drake while the referee checks for a submission. Blair refuses to give up and reaches out for the ropes, only to find they are too far away. He then reaches back and eye gouges Priest which allows Drake to break free of the hold and scrambles out of the ring to the floor. Priest heads out after Blair and takes a punch to the head which sends Priest to the floor. Drake then rolls himself back into the ring and then quickly tags ion Steve Hawkins. Hawkins drops off the apron rather then step through the ropes into the ring. He then puts the boots to Priest. He stands Priest up and takes a jawbreaker from him before Priest then rolls himself into the ring.

Ricky Simms - Very impressive new team here in Chaney and Priest.

Henry Lesher - Well, anyone half way talented looks great against the guys we have in this company.

Priest goes to his corner and tags in Devon Chaney. Hawkins rolls himself into the ring and takes a running kick to the head from Chaney who then rolls Hawkins into a school boy for the pin attempt. 1...2...3! Team SOB has been eliminated from the match and the crowd has a mixed reaction to their elimination.  As Blair pulls Hawkins from the ring and Olivia heads over to check on the bested team, we see Slim Pickens leading Kelli on a charge towards the ring. They both slip in under the bottom rope only to be greeted by both Devon and Priest who put the boots to the third team into the match. Priest stands Kelli up and whips her through the ropes and out to the floor while Chaney stands Slim up and backs him into the corner buckle where he unloads with a flurry of rights and lefts, the crowd already chanting for Slim Pickens.

Ricky Simms - Slim has really become one of the only heroes this company has left.

Henry Lesher - That is a statement of how bad things have become in the CWA.

Chaney gives Slim a hip toss to the center of the ring and then places him in a sleeper hold. Slim refuses to submit when asked by the referee and he reaches out for the ropes, but they are too far away to take a hold of. He then starts landing elbows to the ribs on Chaney which loosen the hold and allow Slim to snap mare Devon to the mat where he applies a sleeper hold in response. The referee checks for a submission from Chaney, but before he can answer Priest breaks that up with a kick to the back of the head on Slim and he falls to the mat. The referee escorts Priest from the ring which allows Kelli to enter and she lands a standing dropkick to the chest on Chaney. Slim then gets to his feet while the referee turns to get Kelli out of the ring. Priest enters again and kicks Slim in the back before Devon Chaney then  spears Slim to the mat and hooks the leg for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Slim Pickens.

Ricky Simms - I really thought Slim was done there.

Henry Lesher - I had hoped for that, too.

Chaney stands Slim up, whips him off the ropes and Slim ducks a clothesline before giving Chaney an inverted neckbreaker and then he rolls to his corner where he tags in Kelli. Kelli storms into the ring and lands a series of kicks on the downed Chaney. Kelli then goes to the ropes in a neutral corner and jumps to the top. Chaney gets to his feet and takes a flying cross body from Kelli before she goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Chaney. Kelli then pulls Chaney to his feet and takes a series of punches to the chest from Chaney who then gives her a spinebuster to the mat. He looks at Slim in the corner and has a few words with him. As Slim tries to enter the ring and argue with Chaney, the referee holds Slim back and then Chaney pulls Kelli to his corner where Priest steps in and the two of them boot choke Kelli while they both use the top rope for added leverage. Chaney steps out while Priest pulls Kelli to her feet.

Ricky Simms - Priest was never tagged in.

Henry Lesher - No big deal, stop being such a baby.

Priest whips Kelli off the ropes and then gives her a shoulder block to the mat before he then gives her an elbow smash to the chest. He then picks her up and slams her to the mat before he turns and has a couple of words for Slim that draw him into the ring again. Devon Chaney climbs the ropes in the corner while the referee again sees Slim out of the ring. Chaney lands a flying elbow smash to the chest on the downed Kelli moments before Priest then lands a leg drop across the throat on Kelli and then he goes for the pin while the referee finally turns his attention back to the action inside the ring. 1...2...3! Slim and Kelli have been eliminated. Slim drops off the apron and grabs a steel chair from ringside. He rolls himself under the bottom rope into the ring and the referee heads him off.

Ricky Simms - Slim is livid.

Henry Lesher - Well, he should be since he sucks and he's making me watch his sucking.

As Slim is held back by the referee, we see Night Dweller and Black Panther rushing down towards the ring. hey slip into the ring and start brawling with Priest and Devon Chaney. Dweller kicks Chaney in the chest and then whips him over the top rope and out to the floor. Dweller and Panther then whip Priest off the ropes and gives him a double shoulder block to the mat before giving him a double knee drop to either side of the forehead. Panther then exits the ring while Dweller lands an elbow smash to the chest on Priest. Dweller then stands Priest up, whips him into a neutral corner and then gives him a backdrop to the middle of the ring before pointing to his waist and saying the tag belts are coming home soon. He then kicks Priest in the side of the head before he stands Priest up, whips him off the ropes and goes for a big boot only to have Priest clothesline Dweller to the mat instead. Priest then goes to his corner and tags in Devon Chaney. Chaney enters the ring and puts the boots to Dweller.

Ricky Simms - Momentum shift in this one as the new tag team shows what they're worth.

Henry Lesher - No, they haven't as they have yet to face anyone decent.

Chaney then places Dweller's throat over the bottom rope and chokes him with it while the referee threatens to disqualify him. Chaney then releases the choke before the referee can reach a five count, stands Dweller up and then whips him off the ropes before giving him a dropkick to the mat. Chaney then pulls Night Dweller to his feet and then gives him a side suplex to the mat before going for the pin. 1...2... kick out  by Night Dweller. Chaney slaps the mat and tells the referee that was a slow count. He then pulls Night Dweller to his feet only to take a thumb to the eyes from Dweller who then gives Chaney a series of forearm upper cuts that drive him into his corner where he tags in Black Panther. They then whip him off the ropes and backdrop him over the top rope and down to the floor. Dweller then steps out of the ring while Panther drops and rolls himself out to the floor. He tries to whip Chaney into the guard railing, but Devon reverses that and sends Panther head first into the guard railing instead.

Ricky Simms - Big move there by Devon Chaney, even though they have to be tired at this point.

Henry Lesher - They're not facing anyone yet.

Devon stands Panther up, whips him into the steel ring steps shoulder first and then poses for booing fans in the front row. He then rolls himself into the ring to beat the count and the referee warns him about these tactics. Devon backs off and the referee starts a count on Black Panther. We then see Orlock and Kindred making their way down the ramp and that draws boos from the crowd. Orlock stops at ringside and the referee rushes to his side of the ring and tells him to back off. Kindred makes his way around the ring towards Black Panther. Night Dweller jumps off of the ring apron and stands in Kindred's way. The referee tries to keep the peace there and keep Orlock away from the downed Black Panther. We then see Samson stepping over the guard railing with brass knuckles on his right hand. He kisses the brass knuckles and then rolls Panther into the ring before he makes his exit through the crowd and Chaney goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Dark Forces have been eliminated.

Ricky  Simms - Why would Samson want to screw Dark Forces over?

Henry Lesher - Why not?

Night Dweller complains to the referee, but to no avail as the decision stands. "Born To Be Wild" by Hinder plays as Honor and Glory come out for their debut match in the CWA. Marcus Young and Brian Hobbs get a good pop from the Vancouver crowd as they make their way down the ramp towards the ring, then stop at ringside to talk trash with Night Dweller. Hobbs then rolls himself under the bottom rope into the ring and jumps to his feet before they start brawling with one another. Hobbs gives Chaney a series of kicks to the ribs before giving him a gutwrench suplex to the mat. Hobbs then stands Chaney up, whips him into a neutral corner and then gives him a bulldog to the mat before rolling him over for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Chaney.

Ricky Simms - Solid performance thus far by yet another new team in the CWA.

Henry Lesher - They must be hiring homeless off the streets for the new year.

Hobbs stands Chaney up and then gives him a snap suplex to the mat before he pulls Chaney to his corner and tags in Marcus Young. Young and Hobbs then whip Chaney off the ropes and give him a double dropkick that sends him down to the mat. Young then climbs the ropes in the nearest neutral corner and waits for Chaney to stand. Young  leaps from the second rope for a clothesline, but Chaney ducks that and then he gives Young a stunner before he tags in Priest and then Priest charges in and clotheslines Young to the mat before raining down punches to the head on the new Canadian star. Priest then stands Young up, whips him through the ropes and out to the floor before he backs off to the middle of the ring.

Ricky Simms - Chaney and priest have to be exhausted at this point.

Henry Lesher - Send in Rated R and Leech.

Young gets to his feet on the floor and priest goes for the baseball slide only to fall to the floor as Young side steps it and pulls Priest down along the way. Young then picks Priest up and slams him to the floor before rolling himself back into the ring. Young then backs up to the middle of the ring while Priest gets to his feet and then rolls himself back in. Young then leg drops Priest to the back of the neck while he's face down and vulnerable on ring entrance. Young then pulls Priest to his corner and tags in Hobbs. They whip Priest off the ropes and miss a double clothesline as Priest ducks it. He eye gouges Young and then knees Hobbs in the ribs before giving him a side slam to the mat. He then pulls Hobbs to his corner, tags on Chaney and then Devon climbs to the top rope. Hobbs gets to his feet and takes a flying cross body to the mat from Chaney before Devon hooks the leg for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hobbs. Chaney shakes his head while pulling Hobbs back to his feet.

Ricky Simms - These guys are proving they belong in the tag title picture.

Henry Lesher - It's a shallow talent pool, Rick. Some of these fans could be in the running.

Chaney stands Hobbs up, whips him off the ropes and Hobbs ducks a clothesline before giving Chaney a backslide into a pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Chaney. Chaney then stands while Hobbs does the same and then Hobbs misses with a wild right as Chaney ducks it and then he makes a tag to Priest. Chaney gives Hobbs a knee to the gut and then goes for a power bomb, but Young charges in and spears Chaney right out of the ring. Young heads out after Chaney as Hobbs gets to his feet and takes the Redemption kick to the chin from Priest who then goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Honor and Glory have been added to Devon Chaney and Priest's list of victims.

Ricky Simms - Amazing showing so far for Chaney and Priest.

Henry Lesher - Whatever, we'll see when Rated R and Leech get here.

Ricky Simms - Doc, they aren't coming.

Priest gets to his feet inside the ring, clearly exhausted while Chaney pulls himself up onto the ring apron in their corner. We then hear "The Sound of Madness" by Shinedown and Southern Comfort come out to a solid ovation from the crowd. They hold the tag titles high and make their way down the ramp while their opponents look on from the ring, already having run through more teams than they likely expected. Kenneth and James hand their titles off to the timekeeper and then they step up onto the ring apron where James agrees to step into the ring first.

Ricky Simms - The tag champs really have had the work done for them tonight by the last challengers standing.

Henry Lesher - How the hell did this happen anyway? They didn't run any gauntlet at all!

Priest moves towards James and takes a knee to the gut before James then gives Priest a DDT to the mat and rolls him over for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Priest. James then tags in Kenneth. The two of them stand Priest up, whip him off the ropes and then give him a double clothesline to the mat followed by Kenneth landing an elbow smash to the throat on Priest and he then goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Priest again as the tag champs look at one another in shock. Kenneth stands Priest up, whips him off the ropes and goes for a clothesline, but Priest ducks that and then he lands the Redemption kick on Kenneth, sending him down to the mat. Priest drops to his knees and looks almost completely out of it while the fans are suddenly behind the debuting star here.

Ricky Simms - It's insane that Priest pulled that off after all the punishment he has taken.

Henry Lesher - We need Dante and Q to come out here.

Priest takes a few moments to catch his breath and realizes he needs to go for the pin. 1...2... Kenneth turns it into a small package. 1...2...3! The tag champions clean up the last team in the match and win.

Ricky Simms - Priest just had nothing left. He put everything he had in that kick and I have to say, that is a damned impressive team there. The tag division has new life.

Henry Lesher - Well, it has life, but I don't know how much of it this place really has.

Jack Spade is seen trying to get into the building, but Wyatt Gibson and his sister Jordan are standing in his way.

Jack Spade - Look, I am supposed to be the champ of this damned place.

Wyatt Gibson - You need to learn some respect. That's what the boss says anyway. We are just doing as we're told.

Jack Spade - You admit you're puppets then?

Jordan Gibson - Jack, we feel for you here. We do. The CWA champ should be able to enter the building and make a showing for the fans.

Jack Spade - Not agreeing with the way things are being done doesn't mean I deserve to be suspended.

Wyatt Gibson - It's not our call.

Jack Spade - So I am wasting my time in talking to you.

Wyatt Gibson - We can pass on a message to the boss, but there isn't much else we can do for you.

Jordan Gibson - And he has a match coming up, so we can't get him to come here and talk to you directly.

Jack Spade - You would think he'd want me around with all of these new faces in the ring wreaking havoc.

Wyatt Gibson - I agree, but again, not my call.

Jack nods, turns away and then charges through Wyatt into the building, tackling the GM to the floor.

Jack Spade - I'm sorry, but that isn't going to be good enough. The fans want to see their champion and they will see their champion.

Pyro & Emma McIntyre vs. Max Cameron & Shannon Skanes

"Porn Star Dancing" by My Darkest Days plays as Shannon Skanes and Max Cameron come out onto the stage, Max carrying a microphone as they  walk down the ramp, the crowd booing them loudly.

Max Cameron - Okay, so Moose says he is sending a message and sends Parker Davis? Parker Davis? What is Parker Davis to us? Now, let's talk about the new team of Shannon and Max, or S and M!

Shannon Skanes - No, Max, that's not our name.

Max Cameron - Okay, I have a back up. We are Team MXC, The M and the X from Max and C for Cameron.

Shannon Skanes - How is my name in that?

Max Cameron - Well.... maybe your letters are silent and we can say you're a ninja.

Shannon Skanes - No, Max, that's not going to work. Now *grabbing the microphone from Max* let's talk about next week. I want to be generous here. I apparently am going to be facing Slim Pickens next week as I want him to shut the hell up. Even these idiot fans want him to shut up. They just play along since he's the only man left who gives a damn about the fans. I am...

"Beautiful Monster" by Ne Yo plays as Emma McIntyre rushes onto the stage and down the ramp, eager for her opportunity to get her hands on both Shannon and Max tonight. She clotheslines Max into the guard railing and then ducks a microphone swing by Shannon before slamming him backwards into the steel corner post. Emma then rolls Shannon into the ring before she rolls herself in. She tells the referee to just start the match and then she rains down punches to the head on the CWA owner who tries to cover up and withstand her barrage. The crowd cheers wildly as the Vivid-Gore champion stands Shannon up and rakes his eyes along the top rope. She then gives him a side Russian leg sweep to the mat before going for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Shannon.

Ricky Simms - The violent Emma showed up tonight.

Henry Lesher - The indifferent Lesher showed up tonight.

Emma stands Shannon up, whips him into the corner buckle and then stands on the second rope in the corner before raining down punches to the head on him while her tag partner Pyro finally makes his way down the ramp to ringside. He walks around the ring and takes his place in his corner. Emma rains down ten punches on Shannon while the fans count them off, then jumps down from the corner buckle and gives him a monkey flip to the middle of the ring. She sees Pyro in her corner and looks suspicious of him while he reaches out his hand. She reluctantly tags him in and he steps through the ropes. He stands face to face with Emma for a moment before he turns and starts putting the boots to Shannon. Pyro stands Shannon up, whips him off the ropes and dropkicks him down to the mat. Pyro then picks Shannon up and slams him to the mat before going for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Shannon.

Ricky Simms - Looks like Pyro is on Emma's side after all.

Henry Lesher - No one cares whose side Pyro is on. He's the Clippers of the CWA.

Pyro stands Shannon up, whips him off the ropes and misses with a clothesline as Shannon ducks it and then tags in Max Cameron. Max charges into the ring and takes a vicious looking kick to the ribs followed by a gutwrench suplex to the mat. Pyro then picks max up, goes to the second rope with him and then lands the Dazed and Confused on Max before hooking the leg for the pin. 1...2...3! Pyro and Emma McIntyre win their match and Pyro can demand a title shot.

Ricky Simms - Amazing show of power there by Pyro in defeating Max. He didn't break a sweat.

Henry Lesher - Few do against Max.

Pyro has a microphone handed to him while Emma enters the ring and she motions to Shannon as a challenge for a one on one battle. The crowd cheers as Pyro stands over Max Cameron.

Pyro - There is a change in the air and I am here to drive it. I have the right to challenge Jack Spade if I want to.

"Welcome to the World" by Kevin Rudolph plays as Jack Spade comes out to the loudest cheers we have heard all night. He rushes to the ring and pulls Shannon Skanes off the ring apron and starts brawling with him, Emma slipping out of the ring and joining in on the beating. Pyro lowers his head, then steps out onto the ring apron as the beating continues. Inside the ring, Max Cameron gets to his feet slowly.

Pyro - See, Shannon, this is what happens when you make so many enemies so fast. People team up and try to destroy you. All of the champions right now loathe you. You're on the endangered list. It's just you and Max, boss man. I get my title shot by beating Max there and you're still alone. Well, unless.... you're not.

Pyro drills Jack between the eyes with the microphone and then does the same to Emma while Max rolls himself out of the ring and joins with Pyro in beating down Jack Spade and Emma McIntyre. The crowd boos loudly and Pyro smiles.

Pyro - Why not take the title shot AND join the winning team?

Pyro and Max high five one another and stand over Emma and Jack while the fans throw garbage in their direction.

Ricky Simms - What the hell?

Henry Lesher - Agreed.

The fans start a chant for Slim Pickens. Pyro strts to laugh.

Pyro - Oh, I took care of Slim before I came out here. That's why I was late to the party.

Pyro points to the big screen and then we see Slim Pickens, out cold and bleeding on the locker room floor.

Pyro - There's your hero. He's broken and bloodied. It's a new era, fans, so you'd better get used to it.

We fade to black on Pyro, Max and now a somewhat recovered Shannon standing together and united in a display no one ever imagined we would see.
