((A/N: I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!))
Before the show….
The screen opens to Freddy by himself in the hallway. He sat on some crates, lost in thought, until Detrick walked up to him with a somewhat disappointed look.
Freddy: Well?
Detrick: …..I don't know.
Freddy: The hell do you mean 'I don't know?' It's either "I'll be there." Or we're on our own!
Detrick: I don't know because I didn't get an answer. I tried several times, but nothing went through.
Freddy: Son of a- great...just great. What the hell are we going to do now!?
Detrick: ...You and I settle this tonight, hermano.
Freddy sighs but nods in response. They get up and walk off-screen as the intro plays.
Rage (by CFO$)
The screen cuts to the crowd cheering and ready for the show. We then cut to the commentary table with Jay & Jazz.
Jazz: Welcome, everyone, to our last episode of ICW before we travel over to the UK! I am Jazz, and joining me is Jay.
Jay: The end is near, Jazz! And ICW is falling apart at the scene! People are attacking one another, non-wrestling officials are being injured by everyone for doing their jobs, and Trell is at the end of his ropes!
Jazz: Yeah…. It's been a long and brutal road, but we are nearing the end. Tonight, we will see several final face-offs between a lot of these hated rivals! Also, we will see Nihilism, Vlad & Drag, take on The New Shield's Furno Moxley & Raptor Reigns! Also, we will see the final qualifying match for the Immortal Opportunity Briefcase as King Caesar, fresh off a victory against Freddy Escobar, go one-on-one against Rick Washington!
Voodoo Child (by Jimi Hendrix) plays and Trell walks out. The crowd cheers for him as he shakes people's hands at ringside. He steps inside the ring before being handed a mic.
Trell: Don't worry. I won't be before you long. But as we get ready to head across the pond, I just wanted to come out and say thank you. Thank you to all who has stood by ICW in this...interesting season.
Nevermore (by Symphony X) starts to play, and everyone began to boo! Sullivan slowly walks out with an emotionless expression on his face. Trell calmly watched as Sullivan made his way to the ring. Once he was in, Sullivan looked around at the booing crowd. He then glances at Trell.
Trell: Sullivan. I know why you're here, but I thought you should know that CJ won't be here tonight.
The crowd began chanting CJ's name. Sullivan & Trell looked around at everyone before back at each other.
Trell: The reason is that he said what he needed to say to you, Seth. But since you're out here, I want to remind you that I won't be held responsible for what happens to either of you. You two wanted to fight, and that's what you two got. It's now left with you, CJ, and whatever God you two serve. So good luck Seth, and my God have mercy on your souls.
Trell went to leave the ring, but then Sullivan stops grabs his shoulder. He takes the mic out of his hand and looks around once more. He then looks down and spoke.
Seth: ...I'm not here to talk, Trell. Since this might be my last time in this Battlefield, I'm here to do something I should have done a long time ago….
The second he utters those words, Seth SMASHES the mic upside Trell's head! EVERYONE gasped in horror as Sullivan applies the Cobra Clutch! Trell desperately tried to fight out, but he eventually faded and fell into unconsciousness. But Sullivan did not let go. Instead, he just tightened the hold on the owner!
Jay: He's choking him out! Sullivan is taking out the owner of ICW!
Jazz: SOMEONE GET THE HELL OUT HERE AND SAVE HIM!
Trell's face began to change colors from the lack of oxygen, but Sullivan would not let go! Soon, a plethora of security stormed the ring and forcefully removed Sullivan from him! With a crazed look in his eyes, Seth yells out "I WILL END YOU, CJ! I WILL END YOU!" as he was being dragged out of the arena for the last time.
In the ring, Trell laid motionless. Everyone watched in silence as multiple EMTs rushes out and carted him from the arena.
The screen cuts backstage to Jade Madison watching Gambler train. Jade was calm, but Gambler was clearly still angry based on how intense he was hitting the punching bag.
Jade: I don't need to tell you what was taken from us. Clayton & Koji got in our way, and now we are unable to go to Immortality 2.
Gambler is still training with his kicks growing fiercer. Jade paces around him.
Jade: Let me reiterate: you, someone who onced arrived with so much fanfare, are not able to get what you worked hard to achieve. Because Koji Yoshida and Clayton Palmer took that opportunity away from you out of jealousy and bitterness. They knew that they were too weak to beat you, so they made sure that you wouldn't make it either!
Gambler finally had enough and punches the bag so hard it rips apart. Jade stands next to him and caresses his cheek.
Jade: Tell me, what are you going to do about it?
Gambler: Watashi wa kare o owara seru tsumoridesu! (I'm going to end him!)
Jade smiles at him as the screen goes to black. The screen cuts back to ringside where everyone was calm again.
Jay: You okay, Jazz? If you need to go check on your husband, I can-
Jazz: I'll be fine, Jay. Trell would want the show to continue, so that's what this show will do.
Jay: Alright….as for Mr. Thomas's condition, we will hopefully keep you all updated. But Seth Sullivan has been removed from the building.
Jazz: There's making a last stand, and there's going too far. Seth Sullivan went BEYOND too far. Personally, I can't wait for CJ to end him for good!
Jay: Well let's at least get through this show. We will keep you all updated on Trell's condition throughout the show. But tonight, several wrestlers competing at Immortality 2 will come face-to-face one final time.
Jazz: We will also see Damien Crowe go one-on-one with Jason Malice! And Samuel's… "friends" Vlad and Drag will face two thirds of the New Shield in the ICW Demolition Champion, Furno Moxley, and Raptor Reigns! But right now, we will kick things off with our final Immortal Opportunity Qualifying match between Rick Washington and King Caesar!
Hero (by Nas) starts to play. Rick Washington walks out prepared to compete. But when he made it to ringside, he was attacked from behind by DJ & Dylan!
Jazz: God damn it, now again with Monarchy! They did the same thing to Freddy in order to give Caesar the win! And now they're trying to do the same tonight!
Jay: DJ & Dylan are going to do whatever it takes for any of them to succeed, Jazz! It's what they've always done, and this will lead Caesar in getting the opportunity he rightfully deserve!
DJ and Dylan continues their assault on Washington! They beat him down and stomps away to the sound of loud boos! They soon drag Rick up and toss him directly into the steel steps! They taunt the crowd several times before lifting Rick up and connecting with the Kingdom Killer (Magic Killer)! As they stood over him, a lion's roar was heard! Hail Mary (by Tupac) plays and out walks King Caesar with a smirk on his face.
Jazz: And now here comes King Caesar to take advantage of a beaten down Washington!
Jay: Rick can kiss that briefcase goodbye! Because there's no way he can overcome a threat like Caesar!
Caesar fist bumps DJ & Dylan before grabbing Rick and throwing him in the ring. The referee checks on Rick, who tells him to start the match. Caesar steps in the ring as Washington pulled himself up. When Washington got up, Caesar lays him out with a Big Boot to his face! Caesar drags Washington to a corner and lifted him against it. "The King of Beasts" unleashed the Brooklyn Beasts (a series of jabs and right hooks) before grabbing and throwing him across the ring! "R-Dub" landed hard. He crawls up to the opposite corner as Caesar charges. He hits Rick with the Running Corner Splash followed by the Sitout Side Powerslam! Caesar went for the cover.
1...2 BREAK-UP!
Caesar broke the pin by lifting Washington up. He smirked at the booing crowd before lifting Washington back to his feet. Rick was then German Suplex directly on his lower neck! Washington was out cold, so "The King of Beasts" dumps him to the floor. As Caesar stood in the referee's field of view, DJ & Dylan continued beating Washington as the crowd began to chant for Freddy and Detrick. DJ & Dylan flips off the crowd as Caesar rolls out. He grabs Rock, hoists him on his shoulders, and Powerbombs him right on the ringpost! Rick collapses but Caesar was not finished. He lifted him up and Uranages "R-Dub" on the apron! DJ & Dylan cheered Caesar on as he rolls Washington back in. He went for the cover.
1...2..KICKOUT!
The crowd began to rally behind Rick. But Caesar wasn't worried that Rick kicked out. He instead lifted Rick up and went for the Lion Bomb (Sitting Sitout Powerbomb). But when Caesar tries to lift him up, Rick began fighting back! He even attempted a Back Body Drop on the 6'11 man. But "The King of Beasts" simply beat him to the canvas. He finally hoisted him in the air...only for "R-Dub" to counter into the Spike DDT! The crowd began to cheer for Rick as DJ & Dylan looked on with concern. Soon, both men pulled themselves back to their feet...and Rick struck first with Forearms! After several more, he tries to Irish Whip him across the ring. Caesar counter whips Rick and goes for the Roaring Elbow (Discus Elbow). But Washington ducks it, he continues running, and he hits a Diving Shoulder Tackle! Caesar was knocked back to the ropes, and when he stumbled forward, Rick manages to lift Caesar vertically! Using his power, Rick held the 6'11 there for an impressive long time before hitting the Delayed Vertical Suplex! Caesar was dazed, so Rick pulls himself up. He climbs to the top and connects with the NO-LA Jam (Top Rope Leg Drop)! Rick went for the cover.
1...2...thr-BREAKUP!
Just before the ref could count to three, DJ & Dylan pulls him out of the ring! They then rush in and starts beating Washington again! The crowd boos their actions...until Freddy Escobar and Detrick Cyrus rushes out! The crowd cheers as the Guerrero brothers began fighting DJ & Dylan! Soon, Monarchy was Superkicked out of the ring! La Familia nods at each other, ran the ropes, and hits a Double Tope Suicida! With DJ & Dylan taken out, Freddy & Detrick rolled the ref back in the ring. Rick and Caesar were slow to get up, but as soon as they did, Washington attempts the Get Rekt (Spear)! However, Caesar instead catches him with the Roaring Elbow! The crowd boos as Caesar looks at Freddy and Detrick. He hooks Washington, while pointing at the brothers, and went for his finisher: the Lion's Roar (Vertical Suplex into Sitout Side Slam)! But when he lifts him in the air, Washington manages to land behind him. And when Caesar turned around...he eats the Get Rekt! The crowd cheers as Rick went for the cover!
1...2...3!
"Here is your winner: RICK WASHINGTON!"
Jazz: He did it! Rick Washington has just defeated King Caesar! He will now get a shot at the Immortal Opportunity at Immortality 2!
Jay: You gotta be kidding me! Freddy and Detrick just gave the win to Washington! They had no reason to be out here!
Jazz: La Familia has plenty of reasons to be out here! They don't like Monarchy, they want revenge for what Monarchy has done to them, and simply put, they wanted them to stop interfering in this match!
The crowd cheered as Rick rolled out of the ring and raised his hand in victory! Overcome with joy and emotions, he couldn't believe that he's going to Immortality 2! He smiled ear to ear as he raised his fists all the way to the back! Freddy and Detrick slid in the ring as Monarchy helped Caesar out. Before they could leave, however, Freddy grabbed a mic.
Freddy: Aye perros! How does it feel to have your biggest opportunity stolen from you by us?
Detrick: Because what happens when you cross the familia that lies, cheats, AND steals!
The crowd cheered loudly, but Monarchy was livid! However, Freddy's tone grew serious.
Freddy: But if you thought we'd let you get away with everything you've done to me and mi hermano, boys you are sorely mistaken! We didn't come out her to only stop you three from doing whatever the hell you guys want. We're here to finally settle the score!
Detrick: Tonight, La Familia ends Monarchy! DJ, Dylan, mi hermano and I challenge you two perros to face us right here, TONIGHT!
The crowd was going crazy for the matchup! DJ and Dylan were red with anger, and they simply yelled "YOU'RE ON!" The crowd chanted "YES!" as Monarchy went up the ramp. Freddy and Detrick smirked and nodded to each other.
Jazz: Looks like the match is on! Monarchy and La Familia will look to end things for good right here, tonight!
Jay: This war between both sides will end with Monarchy standing tall over Detrick and their fallen leader, Freddy! I'd bet my soul on that!
Sound of Madness (by Shinedown) starts playing as pyro goes off on stage. Kailene comes out to a huge pop and calmly walks to the ring. As she goes to the turnbuckle, Kailene salutes everyone before getting down. She then grabs a mic and took a deep breath.
Kailene: So. Natalia gets her wish. She gets to fight me at Immortality 2. But I'd be lying if I said I was looking forward to it. It's not because I don't wanna face Nattie, but because I'm facing someone that isn't true to herself.
Kailene: Y'see, Nattie is doing all of this because she's hurt. Siding with Monarchy? Lashing out at everyone? It's just her way of asking for help against herself. Even as I look at her, I can see that deep down, she begging for someone to snap her out of it. I'm not gonna go on a long speech about how long we've known each other, but just know that no matter how much we've struggled to live or how successful one of us has been, we always stuck together through all of it. Which is why I have to do this. No matter how much it'll hurt me on the inside, I will drag my friend by her hair all over the UK just to snap her out of it.
Pillars of fire suddenly explode from the stage! I Burn (Remix) (by Jeff and Casey Lee Williams) plays as Nattie appears on the stage before walking to the ring. The crowd was split between loud cheers and slightly loud boos, but Nattie paid no attention to any of them. She simply climbed into the ring and came face-to-face with Kailene. She even snatched the mic from her hand!
Natalia: You don't know a damn thing about me, Starr! You don't know how it feels to be overlooked for so damn long! I'm done pretending to be someone that these people want me to be, and I'm done pretending to be your best friend! So listen and listen good:
Natalia suddenly SLAPS Kailene across the face!
Natalia: I'm the Natalia that's coming to kick your ass!
Natalia drops the mic and walks away without looking back. As the crowd was stunned silent, Kailene looked up at her….and she was red with anger.
Jazz: Things are certainly heating up between these two "former" best friends, if you can even call them that.
Jay: Natalia has something to prove to the world, Jazz! And she isn't going to let someone like Kailene stand in her way!
Jazz: One thing's for certain, those two won't hold anything back!
The screen soon cuts to Hannah backstage in the interview room.
Hannah: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the man who has just earned the right to compete for the Immortal Opportunity: Rick Washington!
A tired and sweaty Washington walks in. Despite being in pain, he was smiling from ear-to-ear.
Hannah: Congratulations, Rick! You are now one of six men who will be competing for the Immortal Opportunity Briefcase in a Three Layers of Mayhem match at Immortality 2. What are your thoughts right now?
Rick: I...I am just overwhelmed with emotions. Last season, I missed out on Immortality...and I began to think that I would never have a chance again. This season, I almost won the Heavyweight Title, but I lost...and I had my second chance taken from me. But despite everything I've went through, I'm happy to have earned this opportunity. And I can say with confidence that it doesn't matter who's in my way or how many weapons there's gonna be. I will leave Wembley with an Immor-
All of a sudden, Washington was attacked from behind by Dan Riley and his chair! Hannah quickly got out of there as Dan beats him with the chair over and over again! Anthony Dre rushes in and takes down Riley as revenge for last week! The two old rivals went at it by throwing fists at one another….until William Dawkins and Marvelous Tate Williams appear! The brawl spills out into the hallway with Tate and Dawkins beating down Dre and Riley! Soon, Rick appears with a random ladder and slams it into the two of them! Dre slowly got up as Riley got up, but Rick grabs Dan and straight up Powerbombs him through the table!
Rick and Dre looked at each other, but neither man said anything. Dre nods at Rick, pats him on the shoulder, and walks away. The screen soon cuts back to the arena.
The arena went dark as Supremacy (by Muse) plays. The screens turned white as a silhouette of Edward and Aiden appears. The lights returned to normal, and the KNA went to the ring. As they stepped in, AR3 popped his collar and points to his side while Edward raised his cane.
"The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, at a total combined weight of 445 lbs: 'Edward Mercury & Aiden Remington III' KINGS OF A NEW AGE!"
As the KNA wait for their opponents, the arena goes dark. A picture of a wolf appears on the screen as Wolf In Sheep's Clothing (by Set It Off) plays. Chris walks out with an angry scowl on his face. He then walks to the ring, climbs to the top turnbuckle, and howls again.
"Introducing his opponent, first, from Memphis, Tennessee, standing 6'1" & weighing in at 205 lbs: 'Mr. NC-17' CHRIS WOLF!"
Before he could even hop down, a wolf's howl was heard. Resistance to Resilience (by Reluctant Hero) plays, causing the lights to turn on. Matt is in the middle of the stage on one knee. He lifts himself up and heads to the ring. He climbs up the turnbuckle and removed his hood, surveying the crowd.
"Introducing his tag team partner, from Tijuana, Mexico, standing 5'10" & weighing in at 198 lbs: MATT LOPEZ!"
Jazz: Considering the downward spiral The Pack has been on, it's interesting that neither man walked out together.
Jay: Them? Interesting? Oh please! This is going to be a waste of the KNA's time!
Jazz: Well, Matt and Chris are going to try to get on the same page. So maybe they need this win to help fix whatever issues Matt and Chris has.
As the KNA shook hands, Wolf told Matt to stand on the apron. Matt finally got annoyed and stood on the apron. "I'm going to handle this. So just stand there until I need you." But when the bell rings, Chris turns around and walked right into the Kingdom Killer (Shatter Machine)! Aiden immediately covers Chris as Matt stood there.
1...2...3!
"Here is your winner: KINGS OF A NEW AGE!"
Jazz:...Wow. That was….fast.
Jay: Bwahahaha! That was an outstanding win by the KNA! That has to be a new record of some kind!
Jazz: A match where Matt and Chris look to rebound...ended with Chris pinned in seconds.
Matt just stood there as Edward & Aiden raised their hands in victory. They left the ring and celebrated up the ramp. Chris finally came to as realization finally sets in. Asher walks out to try and help Wolf up while Matt just stands there. Chris was helped up….and he immediately knocks Asher to the ground! Matt immediately stepped in the ring and stopped Wolf from continuing his assault. They stared down for a bit until Chris Wolf stepped back. He left the ring and storms to the back.
Jazz: Wolf is understandably upset, but I don't think it was necessary for him to shove Asher!
Jay: Wolf is one embarrassing win from probably snapping, Jazz.
Jazz: You're probably right, Jay… Still to come is more face-offs, Crowe VS Malice, New Shield, VS Vlad & Drag, and in the main event, we will see Monarchy settle the score against La Familia once & for all!
Jay: Also, we have an update on Trell. He has been admitted to a nearby hospital, but his is still barely breathing on his own.
Jazz: That's good to hear. Let's continue with the show.
A random woman was standing in the ring preparing for a match. She began stretching...until Do It Now, Remember It Later (by Sleeping With the Sirens) starts to play.
"The Heartbreak Chick" walked out to a not-so-friendly reaction before rolling in the ring. Before the ring announcer could say anything, Carson suddenly hits the woman with Sweet Chin Music! The referee was not happy and tried to tell her off, but then she hits HIM with Sweet Chin Music! She looks to the ring announcer still there...and gave him his own Sweet Chin Music! She demanded a mic, which was given to her, and spoke.
Carson: Is this it? Is this all that I'm good for in ICW? Facing nobodies?
Carson just laughs to herself.
Carson: None of you get it. After everything I've done these past two seasons, following your rules and being the friend of the people, none of you ever understood. So now it's time I do something for myself!
Carson rolls out and grabs a chair. She rolls back in and beats the woman down over and over again! The crowd had enough of this and began booing her! HBC looks up and smirks in response. She then grabs the woman and wraps the chair on her leg! Carson jumps up and BREAKS the woman's leg by stomping on the chair over and over!
Jazz: This is disgusting, especially for Carson! What...what's gotten into her!?
Jay: Carson is doing whatever she pleases, Jazz! She finally doesn't care about what anyone thinks!
Carson had enough and rolled out of the ring. She paced back and forth, listening to the sounds of boos raining down on her. She finally looks up...and HITS JAY WITH SWEET CHIN MUSIC! Everyone was taken aback at this, even Jazz! She just sat there as Carson leaned on the table and looked Jazz in the eyes.
Carson: Y'know, Jazz…. You disappointed me the most. Out of everyone I've ever trusted, you doing what you've done lately...it's pissed me off to no end.
Before Jazz could say anything, Carson grabs her from the announce table and threw her in the ring! The crowd was horrified by what they were seeing! Carson rolled in before grabbing the chair. She looked down at Jazz, who was backing away and had a look of concern and terror on her face! But before Carson could attack, the lights suddenly went out! Sounds of crows were heard around the arena, and on-screen was Brianna Kelly!
Brianna: Carson Michaels. You made the biggest mistake of your life by attacking me.
A symbol of a crows flash for a bit. But Brianna continued speaking.
Brianna: But your worst mistake was thinking I was going to sit back and let you get away with it. I'm coming for you, Carson. I'm coming to get my revenge...at Immortality 2!
More crows flash on screen! It ends with Brianna letting out the "WHOOO!" before it cuts to her wearing the iconic white and black face paint. The screen went off as the lights returned. Carson soon found herself in the ring that was full of crow feathers. The crowd broke out into a "BRIANNA" chant as Carson looks around. A smile grew on her face as she drops the chair and looks at the camera.
Carson: See you there, bitch.
Carson drops the mic and walks to the back, leaving a visibly shaken up Jazz trying to compose herself. She rolled out of the ring and returns to the commentary table. Jay finally woke back up as the screen goes to black.
The screen cuts backstage to show Koji meditating while Clayton frantically paces back and forth.
Clayton: ….Koji, I'm sorry.
Koji opens his eyes and looks at Clayton.
Clayton: My goal was to help you get to Immortality 2, and I failed to meet that goal. With that being said, there are two people to blame for your atrocities: The Gambler and Jade Madison!
Clayton sat next to Koji. "The Ronin" remained silent as he listened to him.
Clayton: Y'know, my favorite time period in Japanese history is the Sengoku Jidai: the Age of the Warring States. Samurais, such as yourself, fought and killed anyone in their path just to take over the capital and rule all of Japan. Those men shed blood for hundreds of years just to achieve their goals, and they struck down anyone who got in their way.
Clayton wrapped an arm over Koji.
Clayton: I say this to say that The Gambler and, that femme fatal of his, robbed you of going to Immortality 2 and eventually standing at the top of ICW! And as "The Modern Day Samurai," you need to take revenge on him! He clearly does not care for honor and respect, so why should you? Why hold back for a person who does not care about the respect for battle?
Koji looked down and sighed. Clayton pats him on the shoulder.
Clayton: We may have lost the battle, but the war is not over yet! You have a chance to get revenge on the final episode of ICW, and right the wrongs those two have created! So tell me, Koji, what are you going to do when the time comes!?
Koji: Kare o taose! (I will defeat him!)
Clayton & Koji shake hands as the screen returns to the Battlefield. Jay was rubbing his face as Jazz was still shaken from her encounter with Carson.
Jazz:...What's happening here, Jay?
Jay: I don't know…..
Jazz: I mean, everything has been out of control. It's not safe for anyone here. Not for Trell, not for the non-competing workers here, officials, even you and me aren't safe!
Jay:...Tensions are high on the path to Immortality 2. And everyone is going crazy because of it. We just need to get through this.
Jazz: You're right...let's continue on with the show.
Chrome Hearts starts playing, and EVERYONE starts cheering! Derrick and Devin walked out with huge smiles on their faces as they high five the fans at ringside. They soon leaped into the ring and posed on the top turnbuckle. As they hopped down, they listened to the crowd chanting "WAYNE BROS!" The twin brothers couldn't help but smile at everyone. They soon spoke when the crowd quieted down.
Derrick: Welp. This is it. The final days before the biggest show in ICW. Immortality 2.
Devin: Immortality 2 will be the most important day of our lives, man. It is where we face The Fortress for the ICW Tag Team Championships.
Derrick: We'd be lying if we'd said this isn't our toughest challenge to date. As we've said in those video packages: we have never done well against The Fortress. We are 0 and….however many matches we've been in against them.
Devin: But this time, it'll be different. We are not the same team we were when we faced them. Heck, we're not the same team that started out this season. Not only have we grown in the ring, but we have something that they will never have: the support from each and every one of you!
The crowd broke out into "LET'S GO DER-RICK! LET'S GO DE-VIN!" chants!
Derrick: And with that support, we will light the darkness The Fortress has covered those titles in! We will do what so many other teams failed to do: and that is to beat The Fortress!
Devin: Remember this moment, guys. Because on this day, we promise to walk into Wembley Stadium, and beat The Fortress to be the ICW Tag Team Champions!
The crowd continues to cheer for them. But the mood suddenly shifted when Dead Man's Secrets (by Silencyde) plays. Derrick and Devin prepared themselves for a fight...until PK & Static attacks them from behind! The crowd boos as the tag champs assault their challengers. PK laughed at the boos while it made Static crazier! Both men lifted by their hair, but the Waynes breaks free & hits Dual Superkicks! This knocks Static & PK down as they roll out, and when they got up, The Wayne Bros hits Double Sasuke Specials to the champions! The crowd cheers and they roll back in and held the tag titles over their heads proudly!
Jazz: Will this be the scene we see at Immortality 2? The Wayne Bros truly believe that this is their moment and that they WILL defeat The Fortress!
Jay: Tonight means nothing in the grander scheme of things, Jazz! The Fortress have been knocked around plenty of times, and they still came out on top in the end, especially against Derrick and Devin! Immortality 2 will be no different for the champs!
Jazz: Coming up next, we will see Damien Crowe go one-on-one with Jason Malice!
Refined In The Fire (by Winds of Plague) plays as lights flicker on and off. Jason Malice is kneeled down at the top of the entrance ramp with fog all around him & red lights to make the fog glow red. Jason then stands up to make a cutting motion across his throat to which a wall of fire explodes behind him. He walks down the ramp holding a black baseball bat that had carvings of a scorpion, a bat, and a raven. When he is in the ring he stands on the second turnbuckle with his arms spread open, pointing his bat to the crowd.
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from New Orleans, Louisiana, standing 6'1" & weighing in at 237 lbs: 'The Dark Savoir' JASON MALICE!"
Evil Terminators (by Valeriy Antony) plays and the lights dimmed down. Damien slowly walks out and makes his way to the ring. Malice watches him step into the ring and stare him down.
"Introducing his opponent, from the Other Side of Darkness, standing 6'2" & weighing in at 220 lbs: 'The Revenant' DAMIEN CROWE!"
Jazz: Last week, Jason Malice and Justin Danger defeated Zack Mercer and Chris Owens. After the match, Damien Crowe came in and attacked everyone in sight, including Malice! So Malice wanted to face him in response!
Jay: This should be hard-hitting.
As the bell rings, Malice and Damien cane face-to-face. After the intense stare-down, Malice hits a LOUD chop to Damien's chest! The crowd lets out a "WHOO," but Crowe just stood there completely unfazed. Instead, he hits Malice with a LOUD Open Palm Strike to his face! Malice chuckled and rubbed his head before delivering a stiff Strike of his own! Crowe nods in response...and the two of them began trading Chop for Chop and Strike for Strike! Each shot was louder and stiffer than the last, and the crowd was enjoying every bit of it! But when Jason went for a Palm Strike, "The Revenant" suddenly ducks it and catches Malice with a Jumping Knee Strike to the face! "The Fallen One" stumbled back to the ropes, and Damien whips him across the ring. But Jason counter whips and eats a Jumping Clothesline in response! When he got back up, Crowe knocks him back down with the Uranage Slam and the cover!
1...2 KICKOUT!
Damien lifted Jason by his hair and threw him in the corner. He elbows Malice in the face several times before charging across the ring. He attempts the Running Corner Punch, but Jason catches him with a Sudden Death Superkick! Damien was stunned, and Jason follows the kick with a Snap German Suplex in the corner! He picks up a stunned Damien, hoisted him in the air, and connects with a Spinning Sitout Powerbomb! Malice goes for the pin.
1...2 KICKOUT!
Malice picks Damien up and goes for the Double Underhook Piledriver. But Crowe counters with a Back Body Drop. When Malice got up, Damien went for the Black Armageddon (Black Mass), but "The Fallen One" ducks the move and went for another German Suplex. Damien saw this coming, however, and takes him down with the Crowe-Breaker (Code Breaker)! This knocks Malice out, but Crowe wasn't finished. He picks Malice up and attempts his finisher: the Reaper's Curse (Snap Double Underhook DDT), but Jason lifts him on his shoulders and hits the Death Valley Driver in the corner! He picks Damien up and hits the Impaler DDT and went for the cover.
1...2..KICKOUT!
Jason lifted Damien up and goes for Laid To Rest (set up like an inverted DDT and dropped down like a piledriver). However Damien lands behind him and tosses Crowe out of the ring! Damien rolls out and lifts up Malice….only to eat a Sudden Death Superkick! Both men fall to the floor! The referee began his ten-count, but this didn't last too long because Zack Mercer and Chris Owens runs out and attacks both men! The ref calls for the bell as all four guys fight on the floor!
Jazz: And now here comes Zack Mercer and Chris Owens to attack both guys!
Jay: They don't want either man to even be near the International Championship! And they're going to take them out right here, right now!
Owens and Mercer continues fighting them, but Malice and Crowe fights back. They all fought each other until Danger runs in, slides in, and hits an Asai Moonsault onto everyone! All the people were down on ringside as the crowd were cheering! But as everyone was slowly getting up, What Have You Done (by Within Temptations) start to play and Katie Stiker walks out! Everyone looked on in confusion as Katie calmly stood on stage.
Katie: …. I hope you don't mind the interruption, gentlemen. But there's something that needs to be taken care of. Y'see, I have spent the majority of the season wanting to make ICW Tranquillo...and I'll admit, my attempts had not yielded the best results. Case in point, all of the senseless violence we have seen today alone. It is imperative that ICW needs to be Tranquillo...and the best way to achieve this is with the title that connects with everyone...the ICW International Championship.
The five guys watch on. Some were confused, some were stone faced, and some were intrigued.
Katie: However, I acknowledge that you five have your eyes set on the title for your own reasons as well. So how about this: we decide who is capable of holding such a title…. with a Six Pack Challenge at Immortality 2.
The crowd were now curious by the proposition. The five guys all look at each other then back at Katie….who simply smirks.
Katie: Now now...I do not refer to myself entering this match. Rather, I speak about a good friend of mine...who will assist me in making ICW Tranquillo…
Malagueña Salerosa (by Avenged Sevenfold) plays, and walking next to Kaite…..was Adrian Lord!
Jazz: That's Adrian Lord! El Ingobernable Internacional has arrived to ICW and is going after the International Championship!
Jay: ICW just became MUCH more Tranquillo, Jazz!
The crowd went crazy! Chris Owens was NOT HAPPY, ranting and complaining about this person! Mercer just drunk and looked extremely bitter. Malice smiles wickedly, Crowe remains stoic, and Danger watches with intrigue. Lord calmly smiles and fist bumps Katie in the air before opening his eye at the competitors.
Jazz: So now it'll be a Six Pack Challenge between Chris Owens, Zack Mercer, Jason Malice, Justin Danger, Damien Crowe, and NOW Adrian Lord for Immortality 2!
Jay: I know who I'm betting on, and that's on "Tijuana's Lord" himself!
Jazz: Well...we're going to take a quick break. Still to come, Furno and Raptor will take on Vlad & Drag, and Monarchy will face off against La Familia!
When the screen returns to the arena, Evil Ways (Justice Mix) (by Blues Saraceno) plays. Nyx Rosewood walks out in her usual attire ... but without a smile on her face. She immediately rolls in and grabs a mic.
Nyx: Alright, Traci. I'm done playing cat & mouse with you. Forget all this "Mad Angel" crap, I'm ready to end this! So be a woman and face me right here, right now!
The crowd cheers as Nyx throws the mic down and tosses her jacket aside. As she waited in the ring, the large screen turns static-y, and Traci appears, sitting in a darkened room.
Traci: Nyx…. you severely disappoint me. "The Mad Angel" in you is craving to be let out and play ...but you just don't want to tap into that mindset anymore. You're holding back. But I know how to bring the madness out of you!
The screen zooms out to reveal a bloody and unconscious Callie Allster.
Traci: Correct me if I'm wrong, but this lady is someone close to you...someone you look at as a sister...someone who knows EXACTLY what "The Mad Angel" is capable of!
Traci looks at Callie and smothers the blood over Callie's face. She then cradles her head like a child as Nyx looks on, red with anger.
Nyx: I warned you, Nyx...I was going to bring "The Mad Angel" out of you. And now Callie's blood...is on your hands!
Traci snickers and wipes the blood on the screen. The large screen goes dark as Nyx turns red red with anger. She lets out a primal yell and rips off bits of her hair while storming away.
Jazz: Wow...to do that to someone Nyx considers a sister...Traci is going to regret that.
Jay: You kidding? Traci has been calling out "The Mad Angel" since her return! The chick maybe crazy, but she knows what she's doing and may know a way to take her down!
Red, white, and blue pyro went off on stage! Smoke and Mirrors (by Jim Johnston) plays as Angelica Rhodes walked out with the ICW Women's Championship. The crowd IMMEDIATELY boos her, to which she simply raised her title to everyone. Angelica steps inside and asks for a mic. But she couldn't speak because of the crowd booing. So Angelica just folded her arms and waited for everyone to quiet down. After several minutes of this, Angelica finally spoke.
Angelica: So it has come to my attention that you people thought I "spazzed out" and that I "shot myself in the foot" when I challenged Daria to a match for my title at Immortality 2.
The crowd broke out into loud "DAR-I-A" chants. Angelica looks disgusted at the response.
Angelica: Hmph. Well let me set the record straight I didn't lose my mind and "spaz out." In fact, I WANTED to face Daria at Immortality 2! Ever since I came here, she's been walking around here like she's the coolest and the most badass woman here! In reality, she's nothing more than the lazy bum of the women's division!
The crowd immediately boos her again.
Angelica: I mean, just compare her to me! I am the quintessential example of what a woman is supposed to be in life! I come from a prestigious wrestling family full of hard working Americans who believed in a Dream! I have more talent than any other wrestler in ICW, male or female! I am beautiful, I am talented, I am athletically gifted, I am rich & famous, I am married to one of the very best in-ring workers of all time, and most importantly: I am the most dominant champion anywhere in the world!
Angelica raises her title, and the crowd boos even louder.
Angelica: Now let's look at Daria. She's….she's…. She's just like each and every one of you! She's filthy! She's disgusting! She wanders around her like a homeless woman begging for change! While I was off taking ICW by storm, she was in the back sleeping on crates and lounging around without a care in the world! You know what? Just put an image of me next to Daria, and you can even SEE that I am better than her in every way! I am what little girls wish they can be when they grow up! And at Immortality 2, I will force that disgusting piece of space down to her knees and bow before her superior: "the ICW Women's Champion" ME! "The American Princess" ANGELICA RHODES!
Angelica laughs and raises her title again. All of a sudden, the arena lights darken a bit as Hatet (by Dunderbeist) plays. Out walks the Misfits, Kirsi on the left, Alexandra on the right, and Daria casually standing in the middle. The crowd immediately cheered for them as Angelica looked extremely annoyed. They roll into the ring and stood across from the champion. Daria casually walked up to Angelica and calmly takes the mic out of her hands.
Daria: …...Y'know, you've said a lot of annoying shit all season long. But what you just said now had to be some of the dumbest things that has ever come out of your mouth.
The crowd cheers for that while Angelica was clearly offended.
Daria: For starters, you think you know anything about me. Princess, you know nothing about who I am and where I came from. Yeah, I like to sleep whenever and wherever I feel like sleeping. Sure, my friends and I lounged around Trell's office when we're bored ...even if he doesn't know we're there or that we broke in. Yes, I don't look like the average dolled-up diva search reject. And I'll even say this: I don't care all that much about going for the title. But you wanna know why that is? It's because I know on any given day, when I feel like becoming champion, I will get up and take that title because there's not a soul alive who'll stop me. Especially you, Angelica.
Daria paused for a minute as the crowd chanted "DAR-I-A!"
Daria: And believe me when I say this: I'm motivated as hell to take the title from you. Just so none of us has to hear you go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about how much better you think you are than everybody else. It's time that someone knocked you off of your pedestal, princess, and show you what the reality is. And the reality is this: I am Daria St. Leger, these two are my best friends Kirsi Halonen & Alexandra Xenou, these are the people that you have belittled all season long-
The crowd began to cheer as Daria points to everyone.
Daria: And we are all proud to be goddamn Misfits!
The crowd chants "WE ARE MIS-FITS!" which highly irritated Angelica. But soon, Daria gave a chill smile. She wraps her arm around Angelica's neck and spoke in a casual tone
Daria: And in honor of all the Misfits in the world, I am going to show up to Wembley Stadium, and I am going to throw you around the entire arena until I get bored. Once I get bored, I am going to drop you like the egotistical shit you are, pin you 1-2-3, and take the ICW Women's Championship from you.
The crowd cheered loudly as the Misfits left the ring, leaving an angry Angelica in the ring alone. The crowd continues to chant "WE ARE MIS-FITS!" which makes Angelica even angrier. She finally snapped and rolled out of the ring. While Daria & her friends walked up the ramp, Angelica hits Daria in the back of the head with the title! Before Kirsi & Angelica could do anything, she tossed both of them off the stage! The crowd boos loudly as Rhodes lifted up the challenger and hits the Crossroads on the title! She gave a wicked smirk as she posed over Daria with the title in the air.
Jazz: Looks like Angelica bitter jealousy got the best of her. She's standing tall tonight, but Daria will not let her get away with this.
Jay: Angelica is the greatest Women's Champion in the history of ICW! Daria is a nobody! Angelica will make an example out of her to the world!
Jazz: Coming up next, Vlad & Drag of Nihilism will face The New Shield's Furno Moxley and Raptor Reigns!
The lights turned black and red as Vermillion (Terry Date Version) (by Slipknot) starts to play. Samuel walks out with his creepy smile as Vlad and Drag follows him behind. Samuel still had his twisted smile while the two big men were stoic and lifeless. Samuel rolls in and sat cross-legged as Vlad & Drag stood in the center like statues.
"The following tag team match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, being accompanied by Samuel Dark, at a total combined weight of 525 lbs: 'Vlad & Drag' NIHILISM!"
Jazz: Samuel is just ….one creepy bastard. Two weeks ago, he tortured poor Ajax right in front of the Demolition Champion! This caused Furno to lust for revenge and accept Samuel's challenge for a Demolition Title Match at Immortality 2.
Jay: Samuel is a sadistic individual, Jazz. I think he just want to torture the champion moreso than win the title.
All of a sudden, the lights turn off. Radio chatter is heard while the spotlights shine everywhere on stage (similar to SANitY's). After a brief pause, a female soldier says
"Release the Hounds! I repeat, RELEASE THE HOUNDS!"
Redesign Rebuild Reclaim (by Downstait) plays, and the crowd pops for The New Shield. Furno walks through the crowd with the Demolition Title, and Raptor walked out right behind him. The two of them put their fists together, and raised them in the air.
"Introducing their opponents, representing The New Shield, at a total combined weight of 267 lbs: RAPTOR REIGNS & 'The ICW Demolition Champion' FURNO MOXLEY!"
Jazz: This is a matter of revenge for the New Shield! Furno and Raptor wants to take out Vlad and Drag for what they did to Ajax. Not to mention sending a direct message to Samuel ahead of the title bout.
Jay: Furno and Raptor are walking into a death trap! They would be lucky to survive against these two!
After stepping over the barricade, Furno & Raptor saw that Vlad & Drag were standing in the center of the ring. They nod at each other before removing their jackets and storming the ring! The bell rings as they took the fight to Samuel's giants, but Vlad and Drag easily overpowers them! Vlad tosses Furno out while Raptor and Drag traded shots in the corner. He then clothesline Vlad out to the floor just as Drag charges. Raptor drapes the ropes that sends him out as well. Furno rolls back in before running the ropes. He goes for the Suicide Dive only to be caught by the two larger opponents! Raptor decided to run the ropes and Dive over the ropes himself, crashing onto everyone! Nihilism was down while Furno and Raptor were amped up! Samuel just watched from the ramp as Furno stared him down, keeping him from interfering. Furno and Raptor rolls Drag back into the ring. Furno rolls in himself and hits a Sliding Dropkick to his face then covers him.
1...KICKOUT!
After Drag kicked out at one, Furno proceeds to beat him even more! He tells Raptor to get in and they went for a Double Irish Whip. Drag runs through both of them, rebounds off the ropes, and hits them both with Lariats! Raptor rolls out while Drag picked Furno up and hits an Overhead throw! Moxley landed hard on his neck and back! Drag tags Vlad in, and they lifted Moxley into a Double Wheelbarrow Throw! Vlad went for the cover.
1...2 KICKOUT!
Vlad lifts Furno by his neck then Biel Throws him across the ring! Moxley rolls to Nilihism's corner and pulls himself up. Vlad runs and hits the Corner Splash! He holds Furno in place before tagging Drag in. The two big guys stepped back then Drag whips Vlad towards Furno. Moxley dodges out of the way and Vlad crashed in the corner! Vlad falls out as Drag tries to hit a Big Boot! Moxley grabs it and quickly took him down with a Dragon Screw! With Drag down, Furno crawls over and tags in Raptor! Raptor rushes in and started throwing fists and Uppercuts at Drag, knocking him into the corner. After several clotheslines, Drag shoves him back and stumbles forward. Raptor, with his strength and power, managed to lift Drag up and take him down with the Samoan Drop! He sees Vlad pulling himself on the apron, so he rolls out and hits the Drive-By onto him! Drag crawled to pull himself up, so Raptor ran around and hits another Drive-By! Raptor rolled in as Drag was on his hands & knees. As he stumbled up, Reigns calls for the Superman Punch! But when he went for it, Drag catches him in a Chokeslam! He tags his recovered partner before knocking Furno back to the floor! Samuel signals them to end things, so they lift Raptor up and hits their team finisher: Leaving Earth Shattered (Powerbomb into the Back Suplex)! The referee makes the pin!
1...2...BREAKUP!
All of a sudden, Moxley rolls in and broke the pin with an axe's handle from under the ring! The referee called for the bell as Moxley just wallops away at Vlad! Drag tries to pull him off, but Moxley simply jabs him in the ribs and beats him down as well! Moxley threw the axe handle aside and hits Drag with the Running Punt to his head! He tries to do this to Vlad, but Vlad dodges it and grab Furno by his throat! But the Demolition Champion kicks him below the belt! Vlad groans in pain, and Raptor finished him off with a Spear!
Jazz: Despite the DQ, Furno and Raptor just laid out Vlad & Drag! And now Samuel's all isolated...
Furno and Raptor rolls out the ring and stalks Samuel. He began to laugh and tells them to attack. But right before they made a move, Ajax returns by leaping out of the crowd and taking Samuel down! The crowd popped hard as all three assaulted Dark before throwing him in the ring! The New Shield starts to surround the ring as Samuel looks on...with a deranged smile. Furno nods at the two, and "The Hounds of Vengeance" attacks! They stormed the ring and beat Samuel to a pulp, and the crowd LOVED it! Soon, Furno calls for their iconic Triple Powerbomb! Raptor lets out the howl as Moxley & Ajax lift him up... but Vlad & Drag pulls him out at the last second! The crowd boos as Moxley told him "YOU'RE DEAD!" Even in his weakened state, Samuel was ecstatic at almost being wiped out! He laughs at Moxley and says "IMMORTALITY 2! WE DIE!" The New Shield responds by bumping fists and Furno raising the title!
Jazz: Two deranged individuals are about to be on the brink of death at Immortality...I don't know what to expect, but I can be sure that they'll never be the same afterwards!
Jay: Ain't that the truth...I doubt either man will walk out of the building on their own power. Speaking of which, we have another update on Trell. He has been stable so far, but no one's sure how he will recover from this.
Jazz: I said it earlier, and I'll say it again: CJ Hawk better beat the breaks off of Seth Sullivan at Immortality 2 and get rid of him for good!
Jay: We will find out at the show. But still to come.. Our main event between Monarchy and La Familia! But up next, it's our final face-off, this time between Will Ralston and Chris Blade!
Failure (by Breaking Benjamin) began to play, and the crowd cheered loudly with some boos mixed in! Will walks out with the Heavyweight championship over his shoulder, and he walks to the ring. He climbed up and raised the title in the air. He got down and grabs a mic.
But before he could say anything, Unusual Habit (by Silent Partner) begins to play, and the crowd cheered a bit louder this time! Chris Blade walks out and looks at the ceiling. He takes a deep breath before making his way to the ring as well. Will watches as Chris leaps in the ring and looks around.
Chris and Will soon looked at each other. For what seemed like minutes, the crowd was split between the two. Some cheered on Blade while others were on the champion's side. Neither man had an advantage with the crowd as the cheers and chants appeared 50/50. After what felt like forever, Will finally spoke.
Will: Enjoy this story while it lasts. At Immortality 2, I'm putting you down.
With that, Will drops the mic and rolls out of the ring. Chris watches him raise the Heavyweight Title from the stage and walks away.
Jazz: Nothing more left to say with that. For Chris and Will, it's all about the Heavyweight Championship and being called the best!
Jay: Something's gotta give at Immortality 2. Either Will retains in front of his family & friends, or Chris Blade reaches the promised land and holds his first World Championship anywhere!
Jazz: Up next, the war between Monarchy and La Familia reaches a boiling point when DJ & Dylan face off against Freddy and Detrick!
Princes of the Universe (by Queen) plays, and EVERYONE starts to boo! DJ & Dylan walks out with angry expressions on their faces. They wasted no time getting to the ring and waited for their opponents to walk out.
"The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, representing Monarchy, at a total combined weight of 450 lbs: DJ KINGSTON & DYLAN TORRES!"
Jazz: They have been attacking anyone and everyone they've felt like! But Freddy and Detrick has stood in their way at every moment! They even stopped them from interfering so much in Caesar's match against Washington, which resulted in this match happening right now!
Jay: Monarchy are pissed that Freddy and Detrick won't go away! So now they're out to end things once and for all!
Bandolero (by Don Omar) plays, and the crowd pops HARD! Detrick and Freddy rides out in individual cars (Detrick in a 2017 Red and Black Dodge Challenger & Freddy in a black and gold Lamborghini) to the ring stage! The got out and climbed on stage, staring down DJ & Dylan and ready to fight!
"Introducing their opponent, at a total combined weight of 459 lbs: 'Freddy Escobar & Detrick Cyrus' LA FAMILIA!"
Jazz: Ever since Overload, Freddy and Detrick have been united in their pursuit to take down Monarchy! Freddy did lose that chance last week in his loss against Caesar, but not both hermanos has a chance to right the wrongs and end Monarchy for good!
Jay: Everytime Cyrus and Escobar face-off against Monarchy, they end up flat on their backs! Tonight, they will be put down, and they won't be getting back up!
As soon as Detrick and Freddy made it down the ramp, DJ & Dylan rolled out and began brawling with them! They fought all around ringside, with Freddy and DJ fought on one side of the ring while Detrick and Dylan fought on the other side. Freddy catches DJ with a Snap Back Suplex at the same time Cyrus hits Dylan with the Northern Lights Suplex! Freddy and Detrick point to each other as they roll in. The ran passed each other and hits Dual Suicide Dives onto each guys (Freddy hits Dylan and Detrick hits DJ)!
Jazz: Even before the match starts, both teams went at it! And La Familia are standing tall to the crowd's delight!
Jay: Those two are getting ahead of themselves! They will fall in the end!
The crowd were cheering and chanting "LA FAMILIA!" Escobar rolls Dylan into the ring before sliding in himself! The bell finally rings as Dylan stumbles to his feet. Freddy hits several uppercuts before throwing Dylan to the ropes. Dylan counter whips which allows Detrick to tag himself in. When Torres went for a Back Body Drop, Freddy rolls over his back. He then rolls to the side which allows Detrick to connect with a Springboard Back Elbow! He tags Freddy in and the brothers hits a Standing Moonsault/Springboard 450 Splash! Freddy covers Dylan.
1...2 KICKOUT!

1...2 KICKOUT!
Detrick looks at Freddy and calls for the Street Sweeper (Diving Somersault Neckbreaker/Sitout Powerbomb combination). He tags in Escobar, who climbs to the top rope, and lifts Dylan in a Powerbomb position. However, DJ got back up and pulled Freddy's leg, knocking him onto the ring post! Dylan, meanwhile, attacked Cyrus with punches to the face! Detrick lets go of him, so "The Rabbid Street Dog" plants his opponent with a Double Underhook DDT! Torres then grabs Freddy on his shoulders. DJ climbed up a different corner, and Monarchy connects with a Diving Double Stomp into the Death Valley Driver! DJ then Basement Dropkicks "The Lucha Warrior" out of the ring as Dylan went for the cover.
1...2..KICKOUT!
Dylan tags DJ in before holding Freddy up by his arms. DJ walked in with a cocky smile as the crowd boos them. He began slapping Escobar and running him down. DJ kept calling Freddy a horrible leader and the weakest member of Monarchy! But when he spat in Escobar's face, Freddy kicked him in response! Dylan immediately Clotheslined him in the back of the head knocking him down! DJ then hits a Moonsault into the Knee Press! He rolled Freddy over and pressed a knee on him for a cocky pin.

DJ stomps down on Freddy to the sound of loud boos! He then tags in Dylan, who knocks Cyrus back down to the floor! They then applied the Iron Maiden (Crossface/Sharpshooter combo)! Freddy was trapped in the center of the ring as the crowd was rallying behind him! Loud "FREDDY" chants were heard all over the place, which help Freddy fight back! DJ looks to see Cyrus slowly recovering, so he ran over and hits a Diving Front Flip Senton over the ropes and onto "The Lucha Warrior!" Dylan still had the Crossface applied, but Freddy finally manages to crawl inch by inch! He kept crawling and crawling while the crowd continues cheering him on! Finally, Freddy manages to touch the rope to loud cheers! Dylan was furious that Freddy made it to the ropes, so he got up and took Freddy to the Violence Party (A series of stomps, knee drops, fist drops, and finished off with the Running Senton)! He went for the cover.
1...2..KICKOUT!
Loud "FREDDY" chants were heard throughout the arena, and Monarchy was getting sick of it! Dylan tags in DJ, and they set up for their signature Guillotine (Electric Chair (Torres)/ Diving Leg Lariat (Kingston) combo). DJ climbed to the top as Dylan lifted Freddy in the Electric Chair. But as soon as he did this, "The Prince" surprised Torres by hitting a Poison Rana, knocking him out of the ring! He then ran up top to DJ...and hits a SUPER SPANISH FLY! The crowd were going NUTS with chants of "THIS IS AWESOME!" "The Astonishing One" was out cold as Freddy crawled to his corner. "The Lucha Warrior" pulled himself back on the apron and rallied for his brother to tag him in! Finally, Escobar leaps and tags his brother! The crowd were on their feet as Cyrus hits the Springboard Uppercut to DJ! Detrick then rolled to the apron, got up, and hits the Running Hurricanrana which knocks Dylan into the steel steps!

1…...2….3!
"Here are your winners: MONARCHY!"
Jazz: Chalk up the interference from Caesar again for giving Monarchy the victory!
Jay: I told you, Jazz! Monarchy always stands tall in the end! And now they are going to pick the bones of Freddy and Detrick!
Jazz: It's always the numbers game with Monarchy ...never a fair fight!
Monarchy had their hands raised in victory, but then shoved the ref aside. Caesar enters the ring...and all three men beats down Freddy and Detrick! They stomp down at the two of them while flipping off the crowd. DJ & Dylan lift Cyrus up and hits the Kingdom Killer (Magic Killer)! They all then surround Escobar, who weakly looks up at them. Monarchy soon lift him up for their trio move: the Royal Execution (Triple Powerbomb)! That was ... until the lights went out.
The crowd looked around, Monarchy couldn't see anything, and everyone was severely confused. Soon, smoke shoots up from the sides of the stage as a silhouette appears under red and white lights! The crowd began to go crazy in anticipation while Monarchy watched in confusion! After a few minutes…..and with the crowd growing louder and louder…..it finally happens:
…..
…..
…..
Weight of my Pride (by Pay Money to my Pain) plays.
And through the smoke…..
Appears "The Ace of Pro Wrestling"
Jason Sabre.
Jazz: OH MY GOD! IT'S HIM! IT'S THE ACE OF PRO WRESTLING! JASON SABRE IS HERE IN ICW!
Jay: THERE'S NO WAY! YOU GOTTA BE FUCKING KIDDING ME! WHY IS HE HERE!?
Jazz: LISTEN TO THE OVATION! NO ONE CAN BELIEVE IT!
To say the crowd lost their minds would be an understatement. EVERYONE WAS ON THEIR FEET GOING ABSOLUTELY INSANE! The fans were going CRAZIER then they ever have been the entire season! Freddy and Detrick, looked on in shock and surprise, and Monarchy…
Monarchy was PISSED OFF! Caesar, DJ, and Dylan couldn't believe Jason Sabre of all people showed up! Jason remained calm, cool, and collected as he soaked in the ovation. He then surveys the ring and made eye contact with Monarchy. EVERYONE chanted "JA-SON SA-BRE" as he calmly made his way to the ring. Dylan finally had enough of this and rolled out! He charges toward "The Ace"... who easily ducks him and hits the Final Blow (RKO)! The crowd were STILL going nuts as Sabre laid out Torres! DJ & Caesar were NOT happy, and Jason turns to walk to the ring! "JA-SON SA-BRE" still throughout the arena as he stepped on the apron! He stares down DJ and Caesar, who didn't know what to do or how to react! The chant soon split between "HO-LY SHIT!" and "JA-SON SA-BRE!"
And for the first time ever, "The Ace of Pro Wrestling" stepped inside an ICW ring! DJ immediately charges after him, but he was taken down with a Final Blow as well! Soon, all that was left was himself and King Caesar! The crowd were going BANANAS as the two stared down! Caesar was unfazed by him while Sabre kept his calm, cool, and cocky smile. Caesar shoved "The Ace" to the ropes and tries to knock him down! But "The Ace" ducks it and began leveling him with forearms to the face! Caesar shoves him back, but Sabre bounces off the ropes and hits the Slingblade, taking Caesar down! The crowd was loving every moment of this! Soon, Jason stood in the corner as everyone knew what was coming next! As Caesar crawled to his hands & knees, Jason Sabre makes his signature Gun motion with his middle finger, index and thumb. He points it at Caesar before hitting the Final Resolution (Kinshasha), knocking Caesar out of the ring!
((Credit AshWrites99 for...pretty much everything you're about to see))
The reaction is insane as Jason Sabre stands in the middle of the ring. The crowd can't believe the sight they're seeing as Jason lets out a grin to the biggest pop of the season. 'Jason Sabre' booms around the arena as Detrick Cyrus and Freddy Escobar get to their feet. Jason just lets the adulation pour in as the Monarchy are seen on the ringside floor, retreating. Detrick hands Jason a mic.
"THIS IS AWESOME" Chants the crowd even before Jason says a word. A deaf could hear at this point. Jason waits a few seconds for the reaction to lower. Then 30 seconds. Then a minute. It doesn't give up. Two Minutes pass, until Jason singles with him finger for the thousands in attendance to lower their voice. After a bit longer, Jason has a smile on his face over the reaction and the fans finally quiet down to hear what 'The Ace' has to say.
"For those of you who don't know what's happening right now, hell has frozen over…."
He pauses for dramatic effect.
"And the Ace is ready to be in ICW, full time!"
And then it happens again. The crowd goes insane over the announcement as we cut the Monarchy on stage trying to get the crowd to shut up. "Jason Sabre" chants are once again in full effect as Freddy and Detrick couldn't be happier.
"I'm the secret weapon, Motherfucker and I'm about to shoot. So let tell you what that means. That means these fans are going to get a breath of fresh air for the first time in a whole season. I've been watching this product. Main events having last minute changes. Pay-Per-Views without a main event. A World Champion who couldn't lace Jinder Mahal's boots. A club of people who play with their snakes acting cool one second and menacing the next, while actually just being a nuisance for the viewing audience. Everyone turning or walking out on each other. Attendance down. Ratings down. Merch sales down. Approval rating from the fans down. And we're just scratching the surface, pal, there's a lot of shit wrong with this place. Yeah, ICW has had a rough year, haven't they?"
A 'Yes!' chant is heard.
"I know we had a hundred returns this season, but everyone better pay attention to the one debut that matters and that's the debut of Jason Sabre coming to ICW and saving it from itself. Listen to the people right now. They haven't been this alive in a long time. They have been forced to watch with a dead face at what this company has become. Now they feel alive. They are breathing air instead of being suffocated by the dirt that constantly kicked in their face. You know I'm going to die one day and I want to be known as the guy who changed this industry for the better…and that's why I'm here."
The crowd cheers
"I'm here to give this place a little face lift because it's been getting beat up a little too much. This isn't a promo or a fine speech. Listen up, ICW roster. This is a goddamn declaration by the best wrestler on this planet! I'm turning this place upside down and there ain't a damn thing anyone is going to do about it. I'm not going to sit and read a history book about ICW's downfall. I'm going to write the history book on ICW taking the wrestling industry to the next level-"
And for the first time ever we hear chants of 'I-C-W' over the rally of a passionate Jason Sabre.
"And I'm going to start by reuniting a little dream team… a little backstage kliq…. A trio that the people have wanted on their screens forever."
Jason looks at Detrick and Freddy.
"Boys… Immortality 2 needs a reason for people to watch. We got a Bird about to kill a snake like an altered Mexican Flag. We have the best International Champion in history going for the big gold. But that's not enough for the people. They need something exciting. You know Detrick, you called me for help and I didn't answer, because I was already on my way here…."
Detrick and Freddy looked at each other then back at Jason.
"I'll never be a Guerrero. I'll always be the boy no one adopted that became a megastar on his own. But I'll be damned if I let those three beatdown my best friends and not get an asswhooping from the Ace of Pro Wrestling! So as far as I'm concerned, the boys are back and at Immortality, Monarchy is going to crumble and the Legends of New School will rise"
The pop is enormous as Jason turned his attention to the stage where the Monarchy is.
"Big Caesar, you can wear a Burger King crown, but that doesn't make you the King around here. You can't have it your way. I'm going to make you wish that you were still driving the bus for Freddy when I embarrass your ass-"
The crowd chants 'Burger King' at him.
"Yo, Dylan…. Street Dog… Hey, if you were a rabid come down to this ring so I can beat your Blue Clues looking ass right now. But hey, it's cool. I'll just neuter you on the microphone instead…" Jason before stopping. "One second. Sorry guys. My phone is ringing"
Jason pulls his phone and 'answers' it while holding the mic to his mouth.
"Hello…. Yes, this is Jason…. Yes… I can't neuter him…. Why?... He already had no balls!"
Caesar has to hold Dylan back as Jason puts his phone away.
"My bad Dylan. That was very insensitive of me. But, on the bright side, since you have no man parts down there, you are a legitimate bitch."
The crowd 'Ohh's' as Dylan is being held back by Caesar.
"Now onto DJ Kingston…" Jason said as Freddy and Detrick look at each other, knowing that this is going to get personal. As does the crowd. "You know DJ. Freddy told me that you were supposed to be the breakout star of the Monarchy…"
DJ smirks at that.
"Yet the highlight of your career is getting dumped by Natalia Rodriguez…"
A loud gasp is heard as DJ Kingston scowls at Jason.
"It sucks that your ex girlfriend is more successful than you when you were supposed to be the star. In fact, it must suck for all three of you to know that the girl of the faction had more talent and success than all three of you combined. It just eats all three of you up. I think that's why you guys were so keen on turning on Freddy. Because he had success and quite honestly, could've done it without you three." Jason said, getting back to a more serious demeanor at this point. "But could you guys say the same? Can these three survive on their own. In fact, who's the leader? No one? Well that's a proper answer because you are three no ones. I want you three to realize what you're going to be fighting at Immortality 2. There's a Mount Rushmore of WFA. A Four Horsemen if you will and you're looking at three of them. Realize this. At Immortality 2, you're going to walk into Wembley Stadium with the chance to become the best faction in ICW…. but you're going to walk out as failures, because I refuse to let you three stand over us three. I already took DJ's girl and I'm probably going to make my next baby mama. I'm going to take you three and make you an answer to a trivia question. Who did Jason Sabre beat in his debut-"
"Monarchy!" Answers the crowd.
"Correct. Ladies and Gentlemen of ICW… this is the moment where we see a Deviation from ICW's past transgressions. Welcome to the new world!"
Jason does his mic drop as Weight of my Pride plays to a massive reaction! Monarchy looked on enraged as Freddy, Detrick, and Jason…. The Legends of New School...all stood tall!
Jazz: JASON SABRE HAS ARRIVED, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! AND THE CROWD IS LOVING IT! NOT ONLY THAT, BUT HE MADE THE CHALLENGE: MONARCHY VS THE LEGENDS OF NEW SCHOOL AT IMMORTALITY 2!
Jay: JASON WILL REGRET EVER STICKING HIS NOSE IN MONARCHY'S BUSINESS! THEY WILL MAKE HIM PAY ON THE BIGGEST STAGE OF THE YEAR!
JAZZ: I'VE BEEN JAZZ, THIS HAS BEEN JAY, AND WHAT A MOMENT THIS HAS BEEN! WE'LL SEE YOU ALL IN THE UK!

After the show…
The screen cuts backstage to a pissed off Nyx Rosewood shoving everything out of her way. As the cameraman approaches her, she grabbed it and delivered a chilling message:
Nyx: You want "The Mad Angel" so much that you attack one of the closest people in my life? Guess what, Traci..YOU GOT HER! And the next time you appear, she's coming to RIP YOUR HEAD OFF!
Nyx storms past the cameraman and left the arena. The screen goes black before opening to Matt and Asher sitting backstage. Neither man said a word, but Lopez was clearly angry. Before the cameraman could say anything, Chris Wolf walked up to Matt.
Chris: Fight me.
Matt: ¿Qué?
Chris: Fight me. Cause I'm sick of everyone thinking I'm a joke. Especially you. I saw that look in your eyes, and I am getting real tired of it.
Matt: …..Fine. But when you lose again, you won't have anyone else to be mad at except for yourself.
Chris didn't say another word. He just looked at him and Asher before leaving. Asher then looked at Matt.
Asher: ….I hope we can bury this after you guys fight.
Matt:...Chris just needs to get a grip. He'll get over it.
The two of them didn't talk anymore as the screen goes black. It then opens up to the Misfits sitting on some crates, looking worse for wear. Daria was holding an ice pack while Kirsi rubbed her head. Alexandra even had an ice pack of her own.
Daria:...Hey Alexandra.
Alexandra: Yeah?
Daria:...I was already kinda motivated to win after today. Now? I'm pissed.
Alexandra: ….We all are, Daria. We all are...
Daria: So there's only one left to do.
Kirsi: What's that?
Daria: ….I'm gonna crack open her skull.
Kirsi: Awesome!
Alexandra: ….Good.
Daria, Kirsi, and Alexandra all looked at each other and nodded. Daria was especially as serious as she's ever been. They all got up and walked away as the screen cuts to black….
((A/N: …..First of all, happy VERY LATE holidays and I hope 2020 is going well for everyone. I'll save the long "Thank You" speech after Immortality 2. For now, I just wanted to let everyone know to be on the lookout for "ICW Season 3." I will be opening apps just as soon as I post the story. There's gonna be some slight changes and a soft reboot, but it will help me get a headstart on things. But for now, look forward to the Supernovas Tournament Semifinals and the Immortality II Pre-Show (the TRUE final episode of ICW: Season 2.) Until next time…..))
Next time on ICW: Episode 24
It's the final episode of ICW: Season 2! And it is the Immortality II Pre-Show taking place in the Royal Albert Hall in London, England!
We will get the "Final Words of Season 2" from everyone competing at Immortality II ((A/N: if you wanna write a "Final Words" promo for your OCs, PM me and I'll add it [possibly with some slight edits]))
