*The lights go out. Suddenly, "Creeping Death" by Metallica starts to play throughout the arena. The XtremeTron then flashes white with a black dragon's silhouette on screen. The lights then come back on as Shadow Dragon comes out wearing a long black trench coat. He climbs into the ring, takes off his coat and stretches as he waits for the match to begin.*
Cole: Welcome to Gastro everybody!
King: Man, Shadow Dragon is so mysterious.
Cole: Like a dragon?
King: Exactly!
*God Save Us hits the PA, as Abandon comes out from the stage, as mist rises. As he comes out of the mist, the crowd cheers for him, getting off their seats, as he walks to the side of the stage, and jumps down to the lower part, giving fans high-fives, and continues down the ramp way, when reaching the apron, he jumps up, landing on it, then jumps over the top rope, or does a flip over it. He goes to the closest turnbuckle, getting on the 2nd turnbuckle, pointing out to the crowd, getting a standing ovation from them. He then runs over to a middle rope, jumping on it, then jumping up another level, to the 3rd rope, and does a backflip off of it, then awaits his opponent.*
Cole: Abandon hasnt been here in a while.
King: But he looks like he did the last time we saw him.
*Charlie Big Potato by Skunk Anansie hits as Slain emerges from the depths of the XtremeTron to a mixed reaction. He raises his arms up as if on a crucifix with his middle fingers raised in front of the crowd either side of him. His journey to the ring continues as he interacts with the fans by the ramp way.*
King: Slain! Woo!!
Cole: Slains brother Tom seems to be the favored of the two.
King: I dont care, Slain rules.
Shadow Dragon vs. Abandon vs. Slain
*The three men circle the ring a few times staring each other down and waiting for one another to make the first moveDragon finally looks at both men and gives them the "bring it on" motionSlain and Abandon look at each other and then finally Abandon charges at Dragon. The two lock up and fight trying to over power one another as Slain keeps his distance saving up for the end. Dragon gets his leg behind Abandons and trips him up and then is quick to lock on a side headlock to the grounded foe. Abandon struggles a bit and soon flips Dragon over into a bridging pin, 1 2 Dragon kicks out at 2. Slain moves in on a recovering Dragon and hooks him and takes him up and then drops him down hard with a backdrop, Slain quickly takes his offense to the top and awaits Dragons recovery. Dragon gets to his feet and Slain takes flight with a missile dropkick but Dragon moves and Slain takes down Abandon! Slain gets to his feet quickly but Dragon hits him with a bridging German suplex but only gets 2 for his efforts.*
Cole: Wow Kingonly the first few minutes and weve already seen two close falls
King: Yeahthese guys really suck!
*Dragon pulls Slain to his feet and whips him to the ropes connecting with a powerslam. Abandon who is finally back to his feet locks on a front facelock.*
Mongo: Abandon looking for the Serenity!
King: He still uses that?
*Abandon slaps Dragons back, but he squirms out of it some how and shoves Abandon into Slain knocking him out of the ring. Abandon stumbles back and Dragon locks up for another german but Abandon flips over rebounding the move. Dragon spins around just to be met by a boot to the gut and is spiked to the mat with a hard DDT, Abandon hooks the leg, 1 2 Slain just barely breaks up the pin!*
Cole: Wow we almost had a winner right there!
King: Oh really? I didnt notice.
*Abandon gets to his feet and shoves Slain in a mad fit of rage for ruining his win, the two get into a shoving contest and end up trading blows, Abandon kicks Slain in the gut and lifts him up for a suplex but Slain slips out and grabs a hold of Abandon and runs him into the ropes but Abandon holds on and Slain rolls away, Abandon charges at Slain but he jumps over him, Abandon bounces off of the ropes and nails Slain with a spear!*
Cole: SPEAR!
*Abandon hooks the leg, 1 2 Dragon is just barely able to break up the pin just as the hand was coming down for 3!*
Cole: Yet another close callShadow Dragon needs to be more careful or hes not going to be leaving with that title tonight
King: Yeahdammit Dragon I have money going on this match.
*Dragon drags Abandon up by his hair and tosses him out through the ropes, he then lifts up a dazed Slain and gets him up on the top turnbucklehe stands on the top rope and signals for a hurricanrana, Slain nails him in the gut a few times and connects with a huge sit-out powerbomb from the top rope!*
Cole: Oh my god!
King: Thats it hes dead.
*Slain gets to his feet quickly and pulls Dragon over to the corner by his arm and leg. He then climbs to the top rope with his back to Dragon. He stands on the top staring out at the crowd and signals that its over*
Cole: We could be seeing the Flipside here King
King: This move rules!
*Just as Slain is about to take flight Abandon climbs up onto the apron and trips up Slain causing him to lose his balance and fall backwards with a split legged moonsault type move but instead landing on the back of his head folding up like an accordion! Abandon climbs to the top rope and quickly signals and takes flight connecting with a huge moonsault to he fallen champ! He hooks the leg, 1 2 *
King: Oh my god Dragon just barely gets the shoulder up!
*Abandon gets up in disbelief that Dragon kicked outhe pulls his limp body over to the turnbuckle and sits on the tophe then swings out spiking him into the mat with a tornado DDT! Slain who has by this time recovered attacks Abandon from behind and begins laying in thundering blows to the back of Abandonhe whips him to the turnbuckle and follows closely but Abandon grabs the rope and leaps up over Slain and charges at him with another spear but this time does not connect, but instead goes shoulder first into the steel post! Slain lifts up Abandon but is hit in the gut by 3 consecutive fistsAbandon locks on a front facelock and plants Slain with the Serenity! Abandon hooks the leg, 1-2-Dragon crashes down on both men from out of nowhere with a Dragon Splash! He covers Abandon, 1 2 3!*
Winner: Shadow Dragon
Cole: Shadow Dragon pulls out the win!
*Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana plays over the PA and Raven makes his way down the ramp and gets up on the apron and turnbuckles and spreads his arms like wings to the crowd. He takes off his jacket and gets in the ring and sits in the corner waiting for his opponent to come out.*
Cole: Hes scary.
King: And pissed after losing his Ravens Rules Heavyweight title belt.
*'The Energy' by Audiovent slowly starts off, and an explosion occurs before the vocals kick in. At this, 'The Energy' Chris Williams walks out from the curtain, strutting down to the middle of the ramp where he spins around, showing off the back of his shiny jacket. He walks down the ramp smug, sliding under the bottom rope. He jumps to the turnbuckle as he raises his arms, then hops down taking off his jacket as the music dies down.*
King: I dont like Williams anymore.
Cole: Why?
King: Hes still funny, but he made fun of the Ravens and I love the Ravens!
Raven vs. The Energy Chris Williams
*The two lock up in the middle of the ring as Williams takes down Raven with an Arm drag. Williams gets right back up to his feet and showboats to the fans, thousands of ladies are screaming towards Williams until Raven gets up and from behind, clubs Williams in the back of the head, sending him down into the corner. Raven applies some boots to the chest of Williams, who is sitting in the corner and follows it up by leaving his foot over the throat of Williams, choking him until the referee comes in and splits it up.*
Cole: Raven is hell-bent on destroying Williams after losing his title on Pyro.
*The referee shares a word with Raven ,giving Williams some time in the corner. Raven approaches but Williams grabs him by his shorts and brings him down head first into the turnbuckle. Now its Raven sitting in the corner as Williams gets up and takes a few steps back before coming back in and connecting with a drop kick to the chops of Raven. Williams gets up and climbs onto the top turnbuckle where he waits for Raven to pull himself up. Raven gets up and off comes Williams with a bulldog!!*
Cole: Bulldog!
King: Nice job of Williams timing the jump right.
*Williams rolls him over into the cover but Raven kicks out after two. Williams gets up and picks up Raven as well. He sends Raven into the ropes and goes for a clothesline but Raven ducks under, and locks in a sleeper hold on Williams. Williams tries to fight it off, his hands and arms wailing about but Raven sweeps the legs of Williams, grounding him, the sleeper still applied. Williams reaching for the ropes, but its no use. He reaches out with his legs but Raven wraps his leg around that of Williams, trapping the legs and body of Williams as he begins to fade away.*
Cole: Uh oh, Williams could be out here.
*The referee steps in and raises the arm of Williams, it drops immediately. The referee raises the arm once again and again it drops right away. The referee raises it a third time and it appears to have dropped but Williams is able to pull it back up, a second wind coming from Chris Williams. Williams fires back with an elbow into the side of Raven, loosening the grip on the legs and Williams is able to pull himself up, Raven still has the hold locked in. Williams connects with a few more elbows releasing the hold and Williams runs into the ropes. As he comes back, Raven locks the sleeper in once again!*
King: Another sleeper!
Cole: Raven has Williams number tonight!
*Williams however, turns just enough to lift up Raven and take him down with a backdrop. Raven immediately rolls over and begins to pull himself up with the ropes, getting up rather quickly, Williams on the other hand is slow as he tries to fight off the effects of the sleeper. Raven is up and walks over to Williams, attempting to pick him up but Williams fires a right hand into the gut of Raven. A second and then a third, removes the grip of Raven. Williams gets up and cross the arms of Raven, setting him up for an Energize but Raven knees Williams into the gut. Raven comes around to the other side of Williams and takes him down with a Russian Leg Sweep. Williams lay on his back while Raven sits up, and clears the hair from his face, looking down at Williams before leaning back on him, hooking the leg for the cover 1,2, Williams kicks out!*
Cole: And Chris Williams kicks out!
*Raven gets up and picks up Williams as well, leaning him up against the turnbuckle. Raven whips Williams across and charges in after him connecting with a clothesline, and comes out of the corner looking for the bulldog but Williams shoves him off of him and Raven flies across the ring, landing on his ass. Williams runs forward, flipping over Raven, grabbing his head along the way, and snapping it forward! Raven jolts back and whiplashes the back of his head against the mat. Raven slowly rolls over and begins to climb to his feet, Williams showing quicker movement now, as he pulls himself up with the ropes. Raven and Williams get up at about the same time and Williams crosses the arms of Raven, turning over and flips onto the shoulder of Raven. Raven appears to be holding him up there and looks ready to drop him but Williams suddenly jolts down the mat with a devastating DDT , Williams has hit the Energize!!*
Cole: Thats the Energize King!
King: What a move!
*Raven is down on the mat, arms and legs spread out, he is showing no signs of movement, and Williams is face down beside him, also not showing any signs of movement. Williams after a few short moments moves his head and faces Raven. Seeing him down, he brings his arms down and pulls himself up with his hands. Williams is now slanted on the mat with his hands holding him up, he simply pushes himself over with one hand and drapes the other over the chest of Raven 1...2...Raven gets his foot on the ropes...3!*
Cole: Was that three?
King: No, Ravens foot was on the ropes!
*The referee jumps up as if to ring the bell when he sees the foot of Raven and stops. Williams rolls off of him, one hand in the air in victory as the referee takes back his initial statement and claims it as a two count. Williams pulls himself up with the ropes and begins to celebrate but the referee steps in and explains to him. Williams either doesnt understand or just doesnt believe the referee. While the two are arguing, Raven comes from behind, clubbing Williams in the back of the head, causing him to stumble into the referee and now the referee is down!*
Cole: Raven just knocked out the referee dammit.
*Williams stumbles into the corner and Raven fires through with a right hand. He whips Williams hard into the far corner and Williams staggers out. Raven meets Williams in the middle of the ring with a boot to the mid section and follows it up with the Even Flow!! Raven goes into the cover, but the referee is down. Raven gets up and sees the referee down, instead of helping him, Raven goes to the outside and grabs a steel chair, and Williams has rolled to the outside to catch his breath. Raven enters and looks around only to see Williams on the apron, he comes onto the top rope and hits a springboard body splash to Raven, right into the cover, but theres no referee! *
Cole: Chris Williams has the match won!
King: But the referee is knocked outhaha.
*Williams rolls off of Raven and Raven uses the ropes to help himself up. Williams is pulling himself up as well and both men seem to get to their feet at about the same time. Williams connects with a boot to the mid section of Raven, runs into the ropes but when he comes back, Raven connects with a kitchen sink, sending Williams over his knee and onto his back. Williams lay there as Raven walks to the other side of the ring and grabs the chair he brought in. Raven drops the chair in front of Williams, picking him up and wraps his arm around him. Raven appears to be setting him up for the Russian Leg Sweep/Octopus hold finisher of his but Williams is fighting back with elbows to the side of the head of Raven and the crowd rushes to their feet.*
Cole: The crowd is really into this one.
King: Because these two men know how to put on a hell of a show.
*Williams hits Raven enough times that he stumbles back a bit, Williams stands there, spins around in a 960 degree spin and hits a kick with wicked momentum into the head of Raven! (Gyrate) Raven is down and Williams now has the chair. Williams lays the chair over Raven and runs into the turnbuckle, he jumps onto the middle turnbuckle and comes off with a moonsault (Drop To Zero) onto the chair!*
Cole: My god!
King: Hes cheating!
Cole: Theres no referee!
*Williams hits the chair himself and jumps off of Raven, holding his ribs but eventually falls over beside him, sliding the chair out of the ring and lays on top of Raven for the cover. The referee slowly slides over and gets in position for the long count 1....2....3!*
Winner: The Energy Chris Williams
Cole: Williams pulls out the win!
*Far Behind hits as Dominique walks out, she stops at the stage and waits. The lights go out and on the XtremeTron appears in flaming letters "YOUR DECIMATION IS COMING, MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SOUL!!!. A lightning bolt then hits the top of the stage and Unforgiven II hits and Apollyon walks out wearing a long black leather cape, a black towel over his head and his XHR Title, he puts his arms around the lovely and ever beautiful Dominique and kisses her, they then make there way to the ring where Dominique takes the XHR Title off from around Apollyons waist and holds it high in the air while Apollyon stops at the top of the steps, he raises his arms and the lights come back on, he then climbs through the ropes and gets down on one knee, he raises one arm in the air (Like Taker used to do) as Dominique stands behind him holding up the retired XHR Title as flames shoot out of the four turnbuckle posts.*
King: Didnt the fans just like Apollyon, like a week ago?
Cole: I dont know King, I dont follow that stuff.
*The lights go out and a green searchlight comes across the sage and XtremeTron as the voice of Linkin Park can be heard in the background and the beginning of Faint can be heard.*
"I am a little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I cant help the fact that everybody can see these scars
I am what I want you to want what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here cause you want what I've got"
*As the chorus begins Decoy steps out onto the stage to the support of the cheering fans. He runs towards the ring and jumps onto the apron before stepping into the ring and raising his arms to the fans.*
King: Do the fans still like Decoy?
Cole: Last time I checked.
King: You just said you dont follow that stuff though
XHF Hardcore Title Tournament
Decoy vs. Apollyon
*While Decoy is taunting the fans, Apollyon comes from behind and attacks Decoy, knocking him into the corner and he begins firing boots in towards Decoy. Decoy takes the boots and Apollyon fires rights and lefts in towards Decoy as well now. Apollyon lays off for just a quick second and Decoy suddenly fires back with right hands of his own. Decoy knocks Apollyon into the middle of the ring when Apollyon follows through with a knee to the gut of Decoy, grabs him by the back of the head and tosses Decoy down to the mat. Decoy hits hard and slides across the ring, falling under the bottom rope and to the outside!*
Cole: My god!
King: I guess Apollyon is doing what he says he would dohes decimating Decoy.
*Apollyon steps to the outside, picking up Decoy and leans him up against the barricade. Apollyon fires shoulders into the gut of Decoy, taking the wind right out of him and when down, tosses him into the steel steps! The top of the steps are knocked off as Decoy sits up against the bottom step, holding him shoulder. Apollyon steps over and drags him over to the ramp. Apollyon picks him up, onto his shoulders and connects with a pump handle slam right onto the stage! *
Cole: This doesnt look good for Decoy.
*Apollyon gets up and walks back into the ring, reaching under the ring apron. Apollyon pulls out a bunch of stuff but appears to have found what he was looking for, a garbage can. Apollyon turns around and suddenly Decoy connects with a dropkick into the garbage can, sending it back into the face of Apollyon. Apollyon steps back, staggering up against the ring apron, Decoy trying to buy himself some more time picks up the handle of a fire extinguisher. Decoy turns it on, right into the face of Apollyon. Apollyon stumbles out of the white haze wiping his face and his eyes as though he cant see. Decoy gets to his feet and guides him right into the ring post, Apollyon connects headfirst!*
King: Thats gotta hurt.
*Apollyon stumbles down to the ground as Decoy is now up and moving about. He picks up a cookie tray and appears to be inspecting it, as though looking for crumbs of some sort. Decoy waits for Apollyon to get to his knees, and when he does, strikes right across the back of Apollyon. Apollyon jolts right over, hunched over and Decoy DDTs him on the mat on the outside! Decoy gets up and picks up Apollyon as well, rolling Apollyon back into the ring before sliding in himself. Decoy stalks Apollyon and begins to place a few boots to Apollyon, kicking him all the way to his feet. Apollyon is up and is leaning up against the ropes and Decoy whips him across to the far ones. Apollyon comes back and Decoy puts his head down early, Apollyon connects with the Twister From Hell!*
Cole: The Twister From Hell!
King: What a name.
*Decoys down but Apollyon cant make the cover, hes down as well. Apollyon eventually shows movement but Decoy is as well and Apollyon decides just to get up himself. Both men climbing up, using the ropes on the opposite side of the ring. They both get up and turn to the middle of the ring, meeting there as they trade blows. Apollyon gets the better of Decoy with a knee to the gut and then picks him up onto his shoulders in a firemans carry. Apollyon picks connects with the Bloody Fury to Decoy! Apollyon takes some time but gets over for the cover 1...2...Decoy just gets the shoulder up!! Apollyon pounds on the mat and rolls off of Decoy. He pulls himself up using the ropes and comes back over to Decoy to pick him up but Decoy surprises him with a low blow! Decoy rolls over and reaches to the outside where he grabs a kendo stick. He rolls back into the ring and climbs to his knees, up to his feet and he breaks the kendo stick over the head of Apollyon!*
King: ManI love Hardcore matches.
*The stick completely shatters, splinters flying everywhere as Decoy falls back himself and ends up sitting in the corner, Apollyon looks down and out in the middle of the ring. Decoy slowly makes his way out of the corner and goes for the cover. 1...2...Apollyon just kicks out! Neither man is giving up in this one! Both men take a few moments to get up but Decoy is the first. Apollyon lunges up and locks his hand around the throat of Decoy setting him up for the SlipKnotSlam.

*The pyro flares as Stevie Richards comes walking out. He stops. "Seven Nation Army" plays. He walks down the ramp. Stops at the floor and looks around. As the fan wonders who the hell this is. He climbs into the ring. Jumps up onto the top turnbuckle. Raises his hand up. Then jumps down. Stands in the middle of the ring.*
Cole: This man here is about to meet a VERY angry Phoenix champ. And this isnt even a title match. Hes going to be the sacrificial lamb.
*The lights go black and blue and red strobes circle the arena. The XtremeTron flashes Obey the Master of Puppets! Shoot Me Again by Metallica blares through the speakers. The XtremeTron shows segments of DT hitting his various finishers on opponents. Death Trap steps out onto the ramp in his Death Trap Obey the Master of Puppets shirt and shades. He has on his favorite black hat and is carrying Homer, his lucky bat. He has on his blue and red striped leather pants. He has on black boots and grapple gloves. Around his waist is his XHF Phoenix Championship title belt. He gives the Grand Slam sign and triggers a huge pyrotechnic chain reaction. The XtremeTron begins showing flashes of DT taking various weapon shots and standing up again. The lights brighten. He walks to the ring and takes off the hat, shirt, shades, and title and drops the bat. He steps to the center of the ring and his arms in a cross. He then gives the Grand Slam sign again and sets off one final pyrotechnic eruption.*
King: Here we go.

Huge flames shoot out of the stage as the fans are shocked then begin cheering as "Don't Tread On Me" by Metallica blasts over the sound system. They curtain flips open and Martyr walks out on stage to a huge pop from the fans. He runs down the ramp slapping hands with everybody on the side and makes his way into the ring.*
Cole: I have nothing to say.
King: Me either.
*Faceless plays over the entire PA, as Wraith appears in the crowd, kendo stick in hand, and looks towards the fans, receiving a huge ovation. Standing by his side, is Tara, who walks down ahead of him, as he follows behind her, high-fiving the fans on his way down. When Tara reaches the barricade, Wraith helps Tara over, and then steps over himself, as Tara is already heading up the steel stairs, standing on the apron. Wraith jumps up to the apron, and holds the ropes down for Tara, as he then steps through the middle rope, and hands Tara the kendo stick. Tara exits the ring.*
King: Man Tara is hot.
Cole: But I hear shes a psycho.
Hardcore Title Tournament Match
Wraith vs. Martyr
*As the match is about to start both men stop when The corrupt sound of ELO's take on the classical piece "In the Hall of the Mountain King" starts up as the arena goes dark. The XtremeTron looks as if a hole is being burned through it. The burned outline forms a shape, the shape of a bird, suddenly, the entire area of the bird lights up with flames, a phoenix. The letters XHF fall onto the phoenix as the flames continue on. The song continues as a black bird image emblazoned with XHF is projected onto the ring mat. The letters H and F are projected onto the ramp way. Suddenly, two white flares fire from either side of the entranceway, they cross forming an X. As they sparkle and fizz, Mongo walks out, under the large X above him. He is wearing his Without Remorse Wrestling Federation Phoenix Championship around his waist as he flicks off booing fans on his way to the ring. Mongo walks around the side of the ring locking his eyes with Martyr. Mongo then walks over and joins King and Cole at the announcers table.*
King: Nice to have you here with us Mongo.
Cole: What are you doing out here?
Mongo: Did we forget our Manners Cole?
Cole: Sorry Mongo.
*The match starts off with Wraith swinging around the kendo stick threateningly towards Martyr. Martyr begins to pace watching ever so vigilantly on the kendo stick in Wraiths right hand. The each pace around the ring one time when Wraith runs and swings the kendo stick for the head of Martyr. Martyr is quick to side step the attempt and when Wraith turns back Martyr is ready with a right hand followed by two more. Wraith is dazed from the quick right hands and Martyr runs at him and knocks him down with a stiff clothesline.*
Cole: So why ARE you here Mongo.
Mongo: Will you ever let this die?
Cole: No.
Mongo: Ok. I am out here because if this man in the ring, Martyr, does not win tonight, he will be FIRED!
Cole: You cant do that.
King: Yes he can. Hes the boss.
*Wraith quickly stumbles back to his feet and into the arms of Martyr and Martyr slams him down with a body slam. Martyr rolls out of the ring and begins to search under the ring for articles that could cause pain. Martyr pulls out a garbage can full of items and sets it aside. Martyr then reaches back under the ring and pulls out a table. Martyr sets up the table on the side of the ring and turns back to the garbage can. Martyr empties the garbage can into the ring. Wraith is now up to his feet as Martyr climbs the stairs with trash can in hand. Wraith is looking in the opposite direction of Martyr towards his manager and fiance Tara. Tara yells for him to turn around and as he does Martyr throws the garbage can and hits Wraith right in the head.*
Cole: Thats one point for Martyr.
King: What are you talking about Cole.
Mongo: Yeah What he said.
*Wraith stumbles back into the ropes and Martyr slowly walks into the ring. Martyr reaches down to where he dumped the contents and picks up a baking pan. Wraith seems to be getting back his bearings as Martyr approaches. Martyr decides to run at Wraith and Wraith quickly moves and hits a drop toehold sending Martyr face first into the baking pan he was carrying.*
Cole: Now it is one to one.
Mongo: Cole, we are not NWA:TNA
King: Yeah, no one ever remembers stupid gimmick matches like that.
*Wraith quickly moves over Martyr and begins to stomp on the back of Martyr to keep him from getting to his feet. Wraith then steps to the side of Martyr and drops an elbow to the back of the head of Martyr. Wraith then walks over to the pile of weapons and picks up a 2x4 wrapped in barbwire. Wraith begins to get a sadistic look on his face as he slowly walks over to Martyr. Martyr is pulling himself up on the ropes and as soon as Martyr is up and turns towards the ring Wraith runs and hits him in the head with the barb wire 2x4 with such force that both men tumble over the top rope to the outside of the ring. Martyr is busted open from the shot and bleeding profusely.*
Cole: Martyr is bleeding badly.
King: Hey Cole. Do you remember the Boxing matches in WWF?
Cole: There were boxing matches in WWF?
Mongo: Point proven King. Good job, for once.
*Wraith is slow to his feet from the fall, but does get up and when he does he begins to stomp on Martyr. Martyr is near motionless on the floor as the blood is still pouring from his head as Wraith moves over to the Spanish announce table and begins to clear the table. Wrath has the table cleared and then moves back to Martyr. Wraith lifts Martyr to his feet and punches the open cut as he drags Martyr over to the Spanish announce table. Wraith rolls Martyr onto the table and then climbs up on top himself. Wraith taunts out to the crowd and then reaches down and lifts Martyr to his feet. Wraith lifts Martyr up for a body slam, but Martyr floats over and grabs Wraith with a full nelson and drops him with Knocking on Deaths Door through the table. Both men are laid out on the remains of the table. The ref gets in the face of both men and asks if they are ok, but neither men seem to be responding. The camera zooms in on the face of Martyr and Martyr is covered in a mask of crimson. Martyrs eyes barely visible through the think blood that covers his face as he suddenly is able to turn over and drape an arm across the chest of Wraith. The ref quickly drops to the floor and begins to make the count but Tara is there to break up the count at two. Martyr rolls back onto his back as the ref pushes Tara out of the way and sends her to the back. Tara puts up a dispute as both men still lay out on the fragments of the Spanish announcers table. The ref is finally able to dispose of Tara as Wraith is beginning to move.*
Mongo: Good. Get rid of that crazy chick.
Cole: What were these WWF matches called.
King: No one remembers Cole.
*Wraith crawls away from the bits of table and towards the ring. Wraith pulls himself up on the ring apron and crawls into the ring. Martyr is now whipping his face clean with his T-shirt. The bleeding seems to have stopped and large cuts are evident on his forehead. Martyr sits up and pushes himself up to his feet as Wraith staggers around the ring looking for another weapon. Martyr climbs up onto the apron as Wraith finds his weapon. Wraith picks up his kendo stick that he brought to the ring and runs at Martyr. Martyr somehow is able to see him coming and ducks then sends him into the top rope neck first. Wraith drops the kendo stick and stumbles back into the ring. Martyr slides under the bottom rope and shoots up to his feet. Martyr takes down Wraith with a stiff clothesline then grabs a garbage can and sets it next to Wraiths body. Martyr then lifts Wraith up and kicks him in the gut and drives him face first into the trashcan with a DDT. Martyr flings his body over Wraith but does not hook the leg and Wraith is able to kick out at two. Martyr gets to his feet and looks a bit perplexed at the whole situation, but then looks up at the turnbuckle. Martyr lifts Wraith to his feet and begins punching him in the head. Martyr whips Wraith into the corner. Martyr walks over in behind him and turns him around so that Wraiths back is facing Martyr. Martyr then looks around and finds a baseball bat that was amongst the pile of weapons. Martyr sizes up Wraith and sends a hideous baseball bat shot to the back of Wraith. Wraith screams out in pain and Martyr drops the baseball bat.*
Cole: Looks like Martyr has this match all but won.
Mongo: He better if he wants to keep his job.
King: Brawl For All!
Cole: There you go!
*Martyr then climbs up to the top rope slowly. Martyr shoves the head of Wraith between his head when Destruction comes running down the ramp with sledgehammer in hand. Destruction climbs up onto the apron and hits Martyr in the head with the top end of the hammer. The cuts on the head of Martyr begin to bleed again as Martyr barley hangs onto the top without falling, but that does not last long as Destruction pushes him off the top and through the table. Destruction begins to back up the ramp as Wraith falls to the mat and slowly rolls out of the ring. Suddenly the sound system blasts I Stand Alone and Destruction stops in his tracks. Wraith crawls over to Martyr as Destruction slowly turns around and is immediately leveled with a clothesline. Destructions sledgehammer flies out of his hands and Scorpion picks it up. Scorpion stares at the hammer for a second until Destruction gets back to his feet, then Scorpion levels Destruction with the hammer right over the head. Scorpion picks Destruction up and drags him up the ramp to the stage area and drives the end of the hammer into the stomach of Destruction. Wraith drapes his body over Martyr as Scorpion sets up Destruction on his back and slams him into the steel stage with Deliverance as Wraith gets the three count on Martyr.*
Winner: Wraith
Cole: No, Martyr is fired!
King: Good, dont cross the boss.
*As Scorpion leaves through the curtain the ref calls for EMTs to help both Martyr and Wraith. At this point Mongo also leaves the announcers table and walks over to the laid out Martyr with mic in hand.*
Mongo: Martyr, you have had a great run in the XHF, but you turned your back on me for the last time. MARTYR, YOUR FIRED!
*Mongo then drops the mic and looks pleased with himself. Mongo spits on the body of Martyr then looks up just in time to see the face of Rhein. Rhein then runs through the XHF owner with a GORE! Mongo somehow gets to his feet again, and yet again Rhein runs through him with another GORE! Mongo does not get up on his own this time but Rhein does help him up. Rhein then sets up Mongo on his back and drives him down with Rules Of Evidence. Rhein then hops over the ring barrier as Mongo, Martyr, Wraith, and Destruction are all laid out.*
Cole: What carnage.
*Suddenly, the arena lights begin to flicker on and off and as the crowd rises to it's feet immediately in anticipation, the daunting "Calm Like A Bomb" by Rage Against The Machine hits the PA as the XHF's own "Hellraiser Heartthrob" of ALLL the ladies himself, the great Matt "Hellraizer" Hicks then emerges from behind the curtain with the gorgeous Jennifer Dream by his side! Thereafter, once finished making their way on down the ramp to a chorus of fierce boos, this highly-touted new XHF superstar then finishes making his way on up the ring steps, leaving the elegant Jennifer to continue cheering him on from below now. Once inside the ring moments later, he proceeds to lean over toward the ropes and taunt off momentarily to this entire sellout crowd joining us here tonight, before then finally beginning to bounce back and forth off the ropes awaiting the emergence of any and all forthcoming opposition...*
Cole: And here is the challenger for the European Championship.
King: I dont see why you want to be champion of Europe . . . these guys are both American and weve been to Australia, North America, but not Europe. This Title should be like the Intercontinental . . .
Cole: Just shut up King . . .
*Born Of a Broken Man plays as GD walks down the ramp, climbs on a turnbuckle and taps his right shoulder and raises his right arm. GD then gets into the ring and goes to the opposite turnbuckle and raises both arms then put them down, and puts a smirk on his face as he gets down.*
Cole: Heres the champ who in just 3 months has risen to XHF Championship competition. Amazing.
King: ECF must have done something right, well at least to two guys . . .

*A guitar can be heard playing throughout the arena as the Canadian Maple leaf is displayed up on the XtremeTron and the lights dim down and begin flashing between blue and black. Drums soon kick in as "Speculum" by Adema hits the PA and Lance Storm emerges from behind the curtain wearing the X*Crown Championship around his waist and holding the belts up in the air at the top of the ramp to a huge chorus of boo's. Just as the song starts to pick up Storm makes his way down the ramp flaunting his titles as people throw things at him.

Cole: Weakening the knees for that Canadian Maple Leaf...my guess is he executes on the back next.
*The official gets in the face of Storm and with it, he releases the hold and begins to argue with the official. Kanyon is then given time to get up off his feet. Lance sees Kanyon on his feet just in time and delivers a huge dropkick to Kanyon, causing him to stumble back a bit. Storm is shocked that the big man hasn't gone down and delivers another, knocking him into the ropes. Storm still in complete shock delivers another dropkick, knocking him over the top and to the outside but Kanyon lands on his feet, and stumbles back into the barricade.

Cole: Payback for Storms actions earlier
*The official jumps to the outside and orders Kanyon back into the ring and Kanyon follows the orders, rolling in. The official begins the ten count, reaching 4 before Kanyon goes back to the outside. Kanyon picks up Storm and irish whips him into the steel steps! At this point the official gets out of the ring and warns Kanyon that he will disqualify him if need be. That's when Storm strikes Kanyon with a low blow and tosses him into the ring post! The official doesn't see it because he was turned around by the initial toss of Storm. Kanyon lays on the mat and Storm struggles back to his feet. Using the apron for leverage Storm gets up and simply gets onto the apron while, Kanyon at the other side, is able to enter the ring. Storm lunges at him for a missile drop kick but Kanyon moves out of the way. Kanyon, still trying to shake off the cobwebs from going into the ring post, rests back in the corner while Storm gets to his feet. Storm charges towards Kanyon who steps out and drills him with a power slam! Kanyon immediately gets up and signals to the fans that this is it!*
Cole: Time to finish the job
King: Yes...beat this damn anti American!
*Kanyon drags Storm to his feet and calls for the Flatliner. He pulls him up and gets ready for the Flatliner, but Storm is able to block it with elbows to the face of Kanyon. Kanyon releases and stumbles back. Lance Storm kneels down on the mat as Kanyon shakes the cobwebs out. Kanyon begins to walk back towards the X*Crown Champion when Lance Storm springs to his feet and connects right to the chin of Kanyon with a super kick. Lance Storm then hooks the leg of Kanyon and locks on the Canadian Maple Leaf. Kanyon is to far away from the ropes to reach as Lance sits all the way back on the hold and Kanyon is forced to tap out.*
Winner and still X*Crown Champion: Lance Storm
*As the arena cameras fade after the announcers say goodbye a camera activates in back*
: Damn, thats it this ends now. Who the hell wants this title . . . theyll get their shot at Overheated. COME OUT NOW! If you want this title than come get it!!
*DT screams to no one in particular. Footsteps are heard behind him. He spins around ready to strike but its just Mongo leaving the arena.*
: Uh, sorry. Im looking for someone . . .
: Riiight . . . you do that.
*He leaves giving DT a skeptical look. DT shakes his head and goes out to the parking lot. He arrives to see his red 2002 Corvette convertible smashed in from what looks like sledgehammer blows. Gas is leaking and a trail of gas leads behind a wall. All of the sudden a flame comes up the trail and DT dives as the car explodes in flames. He runs behind the wall only to be hit with the sledgehammer in the forehead. The man in black grabs his belt and looks down at it. He has a mic and says . . .*
???: Very well. You and me at Overheated for this Phoenix Title.

Cole: Welcome to Gastro everybody!
King: Man, Shadow Dragon is so mysterious.
Cole: Like a dragon?
King: Exactly!
*God Save Us hits the PA, as Abandon comes out from the stage, as mist rises. As he comes out of the mist, the crowd cheers for him, getting off their seats, as he walks to the side of the stage, and jumps down to the lower part, giving fans high-fives, and continues down the ramp way, when reaching the apron, he jumps up, landing on it, then jumps over the top rope, or does a flip over it. He goes to the closest turnbuckle, getting on the 2nd turnbuckle, pointing out to the crowd, getting a standing ovation from them. He then runs over to a middle rope, jumping on it, then jumping up another level, to the 3rd rope, and does a backflip off of it, then awaits his opponent.*
Cole: Abandon hasnt been here in a while.
King: But he looks like he did the last time we saw him.
*Charlie Big Potato by Skunk Anansie hits as Slain emerges from the depths of the XtremeTron to a mixed reaction.

King: Slain! Woo!!
Cole: Slains brother Tom seems to be the favored of the two.
King: I dont care, Slain rules.

*Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana plays over the PA and Raven makes his way down the ramp and gets up on the apron and turnbuckles and spreads his arms like wings to the crowd. He takes off his jacket and gets in the ring and sits in the corner waiting for his opponent to come out.*
Cole: Hes scary.
King: And pissed after losing his Ravens Rules Heavyweight title belt.
*'The Energy' by Audiovent slowly starts off, and an explosion occurs before the vocals kick in. At this, 'The Energy' Chris Williams walks out from the curtain, strutting down to the middle of the ramp where he spins around, showing off the back of his shiny jacket. He walks down the ramp smug, sliding under the bottom rope. He jumps to the turnbuckle as he raises his arms, then hops down taking off his jacket as the music dies down.*
King: I dont like Williams anymore.
Cole: Why?
King: Hes still funny, but he made fun of the Ravens and I love the Ravens!
Raven vs. The Energy Chris Williams
*The two lock up in the middle of the ring as Williams takes down Raven with an Arm drag. Williams gets right back up to his feet and showboats to the fans, thousands of ladies are screaming towards Williams until Raven gets up and from behind, clubs Williams in the back of the head, sending him down into the corner. Raven applies some boots to the chest of Williams, who is sitting in the corner and follows it up by leaving his foot over the throat of Williams, choking him until the referee comes in and splits it up.*
Cole: Raven is hell-bent on destroying Williams after losing his title on Pyro.
*The referee shares a word with Raven ,giving Williams some time in the corner. Raven approaches but Williams grabs him by his shorts and brings him down head first into the turnbuckle. Now its Raven sitting in the corner as Williams gets up and takes a few steps back before coming back in and connecting with a drop kick to the chops of Raven. Williams gets up and climbs onto the top turnbuckle where he waits for Raven to pull himself up. Raven gets up and off comes Williams with a bulldog!!*
Cole: Bulldog!
King: Nice job of Williams timing the jump right.
*Williams rolls him over into the cover but Raven kicks out after two. Williams gets up and picks up Raven as well. He sends Raven into the ropes and goes for a clothesline but Raven ducks under, and locks in a sleeper hold on Williams. Williams tries to fight it off, his hands and arms wailing about but Raven sweeps the legs of Williams, grounding him, the sleeper still applied. Williams reaching for the ropes, but its no use. He reaches out with his legs but Raven wraps his leg around that of Williams, trapping the legs and body of Williams as he begins to fade away.*
Cole: Uh oh, Williams could be out here.
*The referee steps in and raises the arm of Williams, it drops immediately. The referee raises the arm once again and again it drops right away. The referee raises it a third time and it appears to have dropped but Williams is able to pull it back up, a second wind coming from Chris Williams. Williams fires back with an elbow into the side of Raven, loosening the grip on the legs and Williams is able to pull himself up, Raven still has the hold locked in. Williams connects with a few more elbows releasing the hold and Williams runs into the ropes. As he comes back, Raven locks the sleeper in once again!*
King: Another sleeper!
Cole: Raven has Williams number tonight!
*Williams however, turns just enough to lift up Raven and take him down with a backdrop. Raven immediately rolls over and begins to pull himself up with the ropes, getting up rather quickly, Williams on the other hand is slow as he tries to fight off the effects of the sleeper. Raven is up and walks over to Williams, attempting to pick him up but Williams fires a right hand into the gut of Raven. A second and then a third, removes the grip of Raven. Williams gets up and cross the arms of Raven, setting him up for an Energize but Raven knees Williams into the gut. Raven comes around to the other side of Williams and takes him down with a Russian Leg Sweep. Williams lay on his back while Raven sits up, and clears the hair from his face, looking down at Williams before leaning back on him, hooking the leg for the cover 1,2, Williams kicks out!*
Cole: And Chris Williams kicks out!
*Raven gets up and picks up Williams as well, leaning him up against the turnbuckle. Raven whips Williams across and charges in after him connecting with a clothesline, and comes out of the corner looking for the bulldog but Williams shoves him off of him and Raven flies across the ring, landing on his ass. Williams runs forward, flipping over Raven, grabbing his head along the way, and snapping it forward! Raven jolts back and whiplashes the back of his head against the mat. Raven slowly rolls over and begins to climb to his feet, Williams showing quicker movement now, as he pulls himself up with the ropes. Raven and Williams get up at about the same time and Williams crosses the arms of Raven, turning over and flips onto the shoulder of Raven. Raven appears to be holding him up there and looks ready to drop him but Williams suddenly jolts down the mat with a devastating DDT , Williams has hit the Energize!!*
Cole: Thats the Energize King!
King: What a move!
*Raven is down on the mat, arms and legs spread out, he is showing no signs of movement, and Williams is face down beside him, also not showing any signs of movement. Williams after a few short moments moves his head and faces Raven. Seeing him down, he brings his arms down and pulls himself up with his hands. Williams is now slanted on the mat with his hands holding him up, he simply pushes himself over with one hand and drapes the other over the chest of Raven 1...2...Raven gets his foot on the ropes...3!*
Cole: Was that three?
King: No, Ravens foot was on the ropes!
*The referee jumps up as if to ring the bell when he sees the foot of Raven and stops. Williams rolls off of him, one hand in the air in victory as the referee takes back his initial statement and claims it as a two count. Williams pulls himself up with the ropes and begins to celebrate but the referee steps in and explains to him. Williams either doesnt understand or just doesnt believe the referee. While the two are arguing, Raven comes from behind, clubbing Williams in the back of the head, causing him to stumble into the referee and now the referee is down!*
Cole: Raven just knocked out the referee dammit.
*Williams stumbles into the corner and Raven fires through with a right hand. He whips Williams hard into the far corner and Williams staggers out. Raven meets Williams in the middle of the ring with a boot to the mid section and follows it up with the Even Flow!! Raven goes into the cover, but the referee is down. Raven gets up and sees the referee down, instead of helping him, Raven goes to the outside and grabs a steel chair, and Williams has rolled to the outside to catch his breath. Raven enters and looks around only to see Williams on the apron, he comes onto the top rope and hits a springboard body splash to Raven, right into the cover, but theres no referee! *
Cole: Chris Williams has the match won!
King: But the referee is knocked outhaha.
*Williams rolls off of Raven and Raven uses the ropes to help himself up. Williams is pulling himself up as well and both men seem to get to their feet at about the same time. Williams connects with a boot to the mid section of Raven, runs into the ropes but when he comes back, Raven connects with a kitchen sink, sending Williams over his knee and onto his back. Williams lay there as Raven walks to the other side of the ring and grabs the chair he brought in. Raven drops the chair in front of Williams, picking him up and wraps his arm around him. Raven appears to be setting him up for the Russian Leg Sweep/Octopus hold finisher of his but Williams is fighting back with elbows to the side of the head of Raven and the crowd rushes to their feet.*
Cole: The crowd is really into this one.
King: Because these two men know how to put on a hell of a show.
*Williams hits Raven enough times that he stumbles back a bit, Williams stands there, spins around in a 960 degree spin and hits a kick with wicked momentum into the head of Raven! (Gyrate) Raven is down and Williams now has the chair. Williams lays the chair over Raven and runs into the turnbuckle, he jumps onto the middle turnbuckle and comes off with a moonsault (Drop To Zero) onto the chair!*
Cole: My god!
King: Hes cheating!
Cole: Theres no referee!
*Williams hits the chair himself and jumps off of Raven, holding his ribs but eventually falls over beside him, sliding the chair out of the ring and lays on top of Raven for the cover. The referee slowly slides over and gets in position for the long count 1....2....3!*
Winner: The Energy Chris Williams
Cole: Williams pulls out the win!
*Far Behind hits as Dominique walks out, she stops at the stage and waits. The lights go out and on the XtremeTron appears in flaming letters "YOUR DECIMATION IS COMING, MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SOUL!!!. A lightning bolt then hits the top of the stage and Unforgiven II hits and Apollyon walks out wearing a long black leather cape, a black towel over his head and his XHR Title, he puts his arms around the lovely and ever beautiful Dominique and kisses her, they then make there way to the ring where Dominique takes the XHR Title off from around Apollyons waist and holds it high in the air while Apollyon stops at the top of the steps, he raises his arms and the lights come back on, he then climbs through the ropes and gets down on one knee, he raises one arm in the air (Like Taker used to do) as Dominique stands behind him holding up the retired XHR Title as flames shoot out of the four turnbuckle posts.*
King: Didnt the fans just like Apollyon, like a week ago?
Cole: I dont know King, I dont follow that stuff.
*The lights go out and a green searchlight comes across the sage and XtremeTron as the voice of Linkin Park can be heard in the background and the beginning of Faint can be heard.*
"I am a little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I cant help the fact that everybody can see these scars
I am what I want you to want what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here cause you want what I've got"
*As the chorus begins Decoy steps out onto the stage to the support of the cheering fans. He runs towards the ring and jumps onto the apron before stepping into the ring and raising his arms to the fans.*
King: Do the fans still like Decoy?
Cole: Last time I checked.
King: You just said you dont follow that stuff though

Apollyon picks him up, onto his shoulders and connects with a pump handle slam right onto the stage! *
Cole: This doesnt look good for Decoy.
*Apollyon gets up and walks back into the ring, reaching under the ring apron. Apollyon pulls out a bunch of stuff but appears to have found what he was looking for, a garbage can. Apollyon turns around and suddenly Decoy connects with a dropkick into the garbage can, sending it back into the face of Apollyon. Apollyon steps back, staggering up against the ring apron, Decoy trying to buy himself some more time picks up the handle of a fire extinguisher. Decoy turns it on, right into the face of Apollyon. Apollyon stumbles out of the white haze wiping his face and his eyes as though he cant see. Decoy gets to his feet and guides him right into the ring post, Apollyon connects headfirst!*
King: Thats gotta hurt.
*Apollyon stumbles down to the ground as Decoy is now up and moving about. He picks up a cookie tray and appears to be inspecting it, as though looking for crumbs of some sort. Decoy waits for Apollyon to get to his knees, and when he does, strikes right across the back of Apollyon. Apollyon jolts right over, hunched over and Decoy DDTs him on the mat on the outside! Decoy gets up and picks up Apollyon as well, rolling Apollyon back into the ring before sliding in himself. Decoy stalks Apollyon and begins to place a few boots to Apollyon, kicking him all the way to his feet. Apollyon is up and is leaning up against the ropes and Decoy whips him across to the far ones.

Hardcore Title Tournament Match
Wraith vs. Martyr
*As the match is about to start both men stop when The corrupt sound of ELO's take on the classical piece "In the Hall of the Mountain King" starts up as the arena goes dark. The XtremeTron looks as if a hole is being burned through it. The burned outline forms a shape, the shape of a bird, suddenly, the entire area of the bird lights up with flames, a phoenix. The letters XHF fall onto the phoenix as the flames continue on. The song continues as a black bird image emblazoned with XHF is projected onto the ring mat. The letters H and F are projected onto the ramp way. Suddenly, two white flares fire from either side of the entranceway, they cross forming an X. As they sparkle and fizz, Mongo walks out, under the large X above him. He is wearing his Without Remorse Wrestling Federation Phoenix Championship around his waist as he flicks off booing fans on his way to the ring. Mongo walks around the side of the ring locking his eyes with Martyr. Mongo then walks over and joins King and Cole at the announcers table.*
King: Nice to have you here with us Mongo.
Cole: What are you doing out here?
Mongo: Did we forget our Manners Cole?
Cole: Sorry Mongo.
*The match starts off with Wraith swinging around the kendo stick threateningly towards Martyr. Martyr begins to pace watching ever so vigilantly on the kendo stick in Wraiths right hand. The each pace around the ring one time when Wraith runs and swings the kendo stick for the head of Martyr. Martyr is quick to side step the attempt and when Wraith turns back Martyr is ready with a right hand followed by two more. Wraith is dazed from the quick right hands and Martyr runs at him and knocks him down with a stiff clothesline.*
Cole: So why ARE you here Mongo.
Mongo: Will you ever let this die?
Cole: No.
Mongo: Ok. I am out here because if this man in the ring, Martyr, does not win tonight, he will be FIRED!
Cole: You cant do that.
King: Yes he can. Hes the boss.
*Wraith quickly stumbles back to his feet and into the arms of Martyr and Martyr slams him down with a body slam. Martyr rolls out of the ring and begins to search under the ring for articles that could cause pain. Martyr pulls out a garbage can full of items and sets it aside. Martyr then reaches back under the ring and pulls out a table. Martyr sets up the table on the side of the ring and turns back to the garbage can. Martyr empties the garbage can into the ring. Wraith is now up to his feet as Martyr climbs the stairs with trash can in hand. Wraith is looking in the opposite direction of Martyr towards his manager and fiance Tara. Tara yells for him to turn around and as he does Martyr throws the garbage can and hits Wraith right in the head.*
Cole: Thats one point for Martyr.
King: What are you talking about Cole.
Mongo: Yeah What he said.
*Wraith stumbles back into the ropes and Martyr slowly walks into the ring. Martyr reaches down to where he dumped the contents and picks up a baking pan. Wraith seems to be getting back his bearings as Martyr approaches. Martyr decides to run at Wraith and Wraith quickly moves and hits a drop toehold sending Martyr face first into the baking pan he was carrying.*
Cole: Now it is one to one.
Mongo: Cole, we are not NWA:TNA
King: Yeah, no one ever remembers stupid gimmick matches like that.
*Wraith quickly moves over Martyr and begins to stomp on the back of Martyr to keep him from getting to his feet. Wraith then steps to the side of Martyr and drops an elbow to the back of the head of Martyr. Wraith then walks over to the pile of weapons and picks up a 2x4 wrapped in barbwire. Wraith begins to get a sadistic look on his face as he slowly walks over to Martyr. Martyr is pulling himself up on the ropes and as soon as Martyr is up and turns towards the ring Wraith runs and hits him in the head with the barb wire 2x4 with such force that both men tumble over the top rope to the outside of the ring. Martyr is busted open from the shot and bleeding profusely.*
Cole: Martyr is bleeding badly.
King: Hey Cole. Do you remember the Boxing matches in WWF?
Cole: There were boxing matches in WWF?
Mongo: Point proven King. Good job, for once.
*Wraith is slow to his feet from the fall, but does get up and when he does he begins to stomp on Martyr. Martyr is near motionless on the floor as the blood is still pouring from his head as Wraith moves over to the Spanish announce table and begins to clear the table. Wrath has the table cleared and then moves back to Martyr. Wraith lifts Martyr to his feet and punches the open cut as he drags Martyr over to the Spanish announce table. Wraith rolls Martyr onto the table and then climbs up on top himself. Wraith taunts out to the crowd and then reaches down and lifts Martyr to his feet. Wraith lifts Martyr up for a body slam, but Martyr floats over and grabs Wraith with a full nelson and drops him with Knocking on Deaths Door through the table. Both men are laid out on the remains of the table. The ref gets in the face of both men and asks if they are ok, but neither men seem to be responding. The camera zooms in on the face of Martyr and Martyr is covered in a mask of crimson. Martyrs eyes barely visible through the think blood that covers his face as he suddenly is able to turn over and drape an arm across the chest of Wraith. The ref quickly drops to the floor and begins to make the count but Tara is there to break up the count at two. Martyr rolls back onto his back as the ref pushes Tara out of the way and sends her to the back. Tara puts up a dispute as both men still lay out on the fragments of the Spanish announcers table. The ref is finally able to dispose of Tara as Wraith is beginning to move.*
Mongo: Good. Get rid of that crazy chick.
Cole: What were these WWF matches called.
King: No one remembers Cole.
*Wraith crawls away from the bits of table and towards the ring. Wraith pulls himself up on the ring apron and crawls into the ring. Martyr is now whipping his face clean with his T-shirt. The bleeding seems to have stopped and large cuts are evident on his forehead. Martyr sits up and pushes himself up to his feet as Wraith staggers around the ring looking for another weapon. Martyr climbs up onto the apron as Wraith finds his weapon. Wraith picks up his kendo stick that he brought to the ring and runs at Martyr. Martyr somehow is able to see him coming and ducks then sends him into the top rope neck first. Wraith drops the kendo stick and stumbles back into the ring. Martyr slides under the bottom rope and shoots up to his feet. Martyr takes down Wraith with a stiff clothesline then grabs a garbage can and sets it next to Wraiths body. Martyr then lifts Wraith up and kicks him in the gut and drives him face first into the trashcan with a DDT. Martyr flings his body over Wraith but does not hook the leg and Wraith is able to kick out at two. Martyr gets to his feet and looks a bit perplexed at the whole situation, but then looks up at the turnbuckle. Martyr lifts Wraith to his feet and begins punching him in the head. Martyr whips Wraith into the corner. Martyr walks over in behind him and turns him around so that Wraiths back is facing Martyr. Martyr then looks around and finds a baseball bat that was amongst the pile of weapons. Martyr sizes up Wraith and sends a hideous baseball bat shot to the back of Wraith. Wraith screams out in pain and Martyr drops the baseball bat.*
Cole: Looks like Martyr has this match all but won.
Mongo: He better if he wants to keep his job.
King: Brawl For All!
Cole: There you go!
*Martyr then climbs up to the top rope slowly. Martyr shoves the head of Wraith between his head when Destruction comes running down the ramp with sledgehammer in hand. Destruction climbs up onto the apron and hits Martyr in the head with the top end of the hammer. The cuts on the head of Martyr begin to bleed again as Martyr barley hangs onto the top without falling, but that does not last long as Destruction pushes him off the top and through the table. Destruction begins to back up the ramp as Wraith falls to the mat and slowly rolls out of the ring. Suddenly the sound system blasts I Stand Alone and Destruction stops in his tracks. Wraith crawls over to Martyr as Destruction slowly turns around and is immediately leveled with a clothesline. Destructions sledgehammer flies out of his hands and Scorpion picks it up. Scorpion stares at the hammer for a second until Destruction gets back to his feet, then Scorpion levels Destruction with the hammer right over the head. Scorpion picks Destruction up and drags him up the ramp to the stage area and drives the end of the hammer into the stomach of Destruction. Wraith drapes his body over Martyr as Scorpion sets up Destruction on his back and slams him into the steel stage with Deliverance as Wraith gets the three count on Martyr.*
Winner: Wraith
Cole: No, Martyr is fired!
King: Good, dont cross the boss.
*As Scorpion leaves through the curtain the ref calls for EMTs to help both Martyr and Wraith. At this point Mongo also leaves the announcers table and walks over to the laid out Martyr with mic in hand.*
Mongo: Martyr, you have had a great run in the XHF, but you turned your back on me for the last time. MARTYR, YOUR FIRED!
*Mongo then drops the mic and looks pleased with himself. Mongo spits on the body of Martyr then looks up just in time to see the face of Rhein. Rhein then runs through the XHF owner with a GORE! Mongo somehow gets to his feet again, and yet again Rhein runs through him with another GORE! Mongo does not get up on his own this time but Rhein does help him up. Rhein then sets up Mongo on his back and drives him down with Rules Of Evidence. Rhein then hops over the ring barrier as Mongo, Martyr, Wraith, and Destruction are all laid out.*
Cole: What carnage.
*Suddenly, the arena lights begin to flicker on and off and as the crowd rises to it's feet immediately in anticipation, the daunting "Calm Like A Bomb" by Rage Against The Machine hits the PA as the XHF's own "Hellraiser Heartthrob" of ALLL the ladies himself, the great Matt "Hellraizer" Hicks then emerges from behind the curtain with the gorgeous Jennifer Dream by his side! Thereafter, once finished making their way on down the ramp to a chorus of fierce boos, this highly-touted new XHF superstar then finishes making his way on up the ring steps, leaving the elegant Jennifer to continue cheering him on from below now. Once inside the ring moments later, he proceeds to lean over toward the ropes and taunt off momentarily to this entire sellout crowd joining us here tonight, before then finally beginning to bounce back and forth off the ropes awaiting the emergence of any and all forthcoming opposition...*
Cole: And here is the challenger for the European Championship.
King: I dont see why you want to be champion of Europe . . . these guys are both American and weve been to Australia, North America, but not Europe. This Title should be like the Intercontinental . . .
Cole: Just shut up King . . .
*Born Of a Broken Man plays as GD walks down the ramp, climbs on a turnbuckle and taps his right shoulder and raises his right arm. GD then gets into the ring and goes to the opposite turnbuckle and raises both arms then put them down, and puts a smirk on his face as he gets down.*
Cole: Heres the champ who in just 3 months has risen to XHF Championship competition. Amazing.

*A guitar can be heard playing throughout the arena as the Canadian Maple leaf is displayed up on the XtremeTron and the lights dim down and begin flashing between blue and black. Drums soon kick in as "Speculum" by Adema hits the PA and Lance Storm emerges from behind the curtain wearing the X*Crown Championship around his waist and holding the belts up in the air at the top of the ramp to a huge chorus of boo's.

Cole: Weakening the knees for that Canadian Maple Leaf...my guess is he executes on the back next.
*The official gets in the face of Storm and with it, he releases the hold and begins to argue with the official. Kanyon is then given time to get up off his feet. Lance sees Kanyon on his feet just in time and delivers a huge dropkick to Kanyon, causing him to stumble back a bit.

Storm still in complete shock delivers another dropkick, knocking him over the top and to the outside but Kanyon lands on his feet, and stumbles back into the barricade.

The official begins the ten count, reaching 4 before Kanyon goes back to the outside. Kanyon picks up Storm and irish whips him into the steel steps! At this point the official gets out of the ring and warns Kanyon that he will disqualify him if need be. That's when Storm strikes Kanyon with a low blow and tosses him into the ring post! The official doesn't see it because he was turned around by the initial toss of Storm. Kanyon lays on the mat and Storm struggles back to his feet. Using the apron for leverage Storm gets up and simply gets onto the apron while, Kanyon at the other side, is able to enter the ring. Storm lunges at him for a missile drop kick but Kanyon moves out of the way. Kanyon, still trying to shake off the cobwebs from going into the ring post, rests back in the corner while Storm gets to his feet. Storm charges towards Kanyon who steps out and drills him with a power slam! Kanyon immediately gets up and signals to the fans that this is it!*
Cole: Time to finish the job
King: Yes...beat this damn anti American!
*Kanyon drags Storm to his feet and calls for the Flatliner. He pulls him up and gets ready for the Flatliner, but Storm is able to block it with elbows to the face of Kanyon. Kanyon releases and stumbles back. Lance Storm kneels down on the mat as Kanyon shakes the cobwebs out. Kanyon begins to walk back towards the X*Crown Champion when Lance Storm springs to his feet and connects right to the chin of Kanyon with a super kick. Lance Storm then hooks the leg of Kanyon and locks on the Canadian Maple Leaf. Kanyon is to far away from the ropes to reach as Lance sits all the way back on the hold and Kanyon is forced to tap out.*
Winner and still X*Crown Champion: Lance Storm
*As the arena cameras fade after the announcers say goodbye a camera activates in back*
: Damn, thats it this ends now. Who the hell wants this title . . . theyll get their shot at Overheated. COME OUT NOW! If you want this title than come get it!!
*DT screams to no one in particular. Footsteps are heard behind him. He spins around ready to strike but its just Mongo leaving the arena.*
: Uh, sorry. Im looking for someone . . .
: Riiight . . . you do that.
*He leaves giving DT a skeptical look. DT shakes his head and goes out to the parking lot. He arrives to see his red 2002 Corvette convertible smashed in from what looks like sledgehammer blows. Gas is leaking and a trail of gas leads behind a wall. All of the sudden a flame comes up the trail and DT dives as the car explodes in flames. He runs behind the wall only to be hit with the sledgehammer in the forehead. The man in black grabs his belt and looks down at it. He has a mic and says . . .*
???: Very well. You and me at Overheated for this Phoenix Title.
*He flips the mask off to reveal Apollyon laughing sadistically. The camera fades*
