((A/N: WOTH here to promote a new show called ICW Training Grounds! There, we'll recap noteworthy events from the past episode along with past, current, and future stars getting a chance under a non-televised spotlight! Go check it out!))

Before the show….

The camera opens in the parking lot, where a car arrives and parks. After the car shuts off, the door opens, and out steps "The Heartbreak Chick" Carson Michaels. She closes the door and then opens her trunk to get her bags. She grabs them and shuts the trunk, fully locking her car. She turns around….

And is immediately attacked by Sofia Reynoso!

Sofia tackles her right into the back windshield of her car, cracking it! She starts punching her in the face as Carson tries to cover up! HBC kicks Sofia off of her and tackles her to the floor! The two were throwing hands until multiple officials ran and separated the two!

Even still, Sofia and Carson even resorted to kicking each other as they were separated! The screen soon goes black and the intro starts.

One finger and a fist

(We start at what looks to be a underground setting, a dimly lit area with a spotlight as a crowd is forming around it. We see someone in a hood standing over a shirtless man on the ground with a bloody nose)

I'll claw my way out of any situation

(Will Ralston is seen in the crowd, before a flashback is seen of him hitting Ben Jones with the Reverse 1916 and him raising the ICW World title in black and white)

I got a one, two punch

(We then see Daria sitting in a chair eating potato chips, before a flashback of her hitting Angelica with The Dreamfall and then Daria and the Misfits in the Immortality 2 crowd in Black

and White appear)

I'll fight my way out of any confrontation

(Furno is taping his wrists in the front row with Aiden and Raptor flanking him before a flashback of him hitting the Legend Killer onto a barbwired board on Genocide, before showing him laying on the floor exhausted and bloody, raising the ICW Demolition Championship in Black and White as the music kicks in)

I got news for you

(The Wayne Bros are seen watching amongst the crowd, before flashing back to them hitting the Neon Blast on PK before they are both seen on their knees hugging each other.)

You're not the first one, won't be the last

(Chris Owens is seen with KNA flanking him in the middle of the crowd cracking his fist, before flashing back to him hitting the CO Bomb on Zack Mercer and then snatching the International Title out of the refs hands)

Won't take abuse

(We see Carson Michaels in the crowd with a scowl that turns into a grin when we flash back to her hitting Brianna with Sweet Chin Music in Black and White)

I see you run son, you're running fast

(We then see Chris Blade leaning against a wall at the back of the room with his arms crossed before flashing back to him pinning CJ Hawk at Immortality)

What you wanna do?

(Revolution is seen in another part of the room. Christian is pacing back and forth, Ava is watching intently, Clay is trying to sell a T-shirt to some guy and Sai is on the floor sleeping with a pillow and blanket, before we flash back to them attacking Chris Blade at Immortality and standing tall)

You call me crazy, I paid my dues

(Monarchy is seen with Caesar standing behind the two smaller guys. We then flashback to them turning on Freddy when Caesar hit him with a Royal Elbow)

You know the truth

(We see Freddy watching from the balcony before flashing back to him hitting Caesar with a series of Chairshots)

You go against me, you're gonna lose

(We then see Jason Sabre at a bar with a couple of girls around him, taking a shot, before flashing back to him appearing through smoke in his debut to a big pop)

Play your hand without a deck

(We then see Detrick Cyrus holding his mask before flashing back to him soaring through the sky with a Frog Splash)

You make your bed of nails

(We see Tate Williams laughing he clutches his briefcase before flashing back to him pulling it down)

One finger and a fist

(CJ Hawk is seen clapping as person gets thrown over him, probably by the hooded figure, before flashing back to him putting Seth in a Cobra Clutch with chains)

I'll claw my way out of any situation

(Natalia Rodriguez is seen in the back of the room before flashing back to her not shaking Kailenes hand)

I got a one, two punch

(Alexis Espinoza and Evan Neal are seen on the other balcony, overseeing what's going on underneath. Behind them is a 'Missing' poster of Trell. Evan offers a handshake with a cocky grin, but Alexis gives him a finger, before turning back to the spotlight in the middle of the room)

I'll fight my way out of any confrontation

(The camera pans right into the hooded person, who's standing over a mountain of bloody men. The person removes the hood and looks up to reveal herself as Sofia Reynoso, who gives a knowing wink, before we pan around her to reveal the entire ICW Roster. The ICW Battleground logo then explodes onto the screen as everyone lunges at each other to fight)

After the intro, we cut to the arena as pyro starts going off everywhere! The crowd, molten hot and ready for the show, chanted "ICW! ICW! ICW!"

Jazz: "Welcome, everyone to Episode Two of ICW Battlefield Season Three! We are LIVE from the home of the Battlefield: the Frank C. Erwin Center in Austin, Texas! I am Jazz Conway joined, as always, by Jay Masters!"

Jay: "How can you be so cheery right now, Jazz!? There's been word that Carson was just assaulted by Sofia in the parking lot! What kind of ghetto street rat would resort to blindsiding someone in the parking lot!?"

Jazz: "Oh calm down, Jay! Carson is fine! But I will say that after some events from last episode, along with the brawl in the parking lot, Alexis Espinoza has vowed to lay down the law!"

Jay: "Well, Jazz, I can tell you now Evan Neal has heard the reports of the assault and has banned Sofia from showing up here tonight! Which I personally support 100%"

Jazz: "Hold on a minute, Jay! I'm just being told that Carson Michaels is about to walk out and address Sofia as well as the attacks!"

Do It Now, Remember It Later (by Sleeping with the Sirens) starts playing, and EVERYONE boos! Literally every person in the crowd boos her! The tron lights up with "HEARTBREAK CHICK" before it shatters and shows a compilation of Carson doing various moves. She comes out with a gym bag and is clearly pissed off! She marches down to ringside, grabs a mic, and rolls in the ring. Even as the music stops, the crowd still boos her! Soon the noise changes to sounds of "SO-FI-A!" chants. That chant made her pace back & forth.

Carson: "...I hope you're proud of yourselves." She says in an eerily calm tone. "After everything I've done for ICW, the loyalty I showed to you all... by being exclusive only to ICW….you all caused this to happen. Thanks to you people, the place I've called home for two seasons now has to deal with some that never gave a damn about this place….Sofia Reynoso."

The crowd pops for Sofia's name, and chants it louder! "SO-FI-A!" "SO-FI-A!" Carson just looks around at everyone.

Carson: "Yeah. The same Sofia you people adore is the same Sofia that went on some crappy talk show and made fun of everyone you paid to see. And that Sofia is the same Sofia that, quite frankly, should never have been put in the position that she's in right now. In fact, she should have never become a professional wrestler!"

That got the crowd to boo Carson. They even chant "YOU SUCK!"

Carson: "Lemme ask you all something: what do you people know about Sofia Reynoso?" She asks looking around. "Because what I know about Reynoso is that everything that she has was handed to her." She rubs her hair and tries not to laugh. "I mean think about it. Ever since she was a kid being passed around on the streets, she had to rely on everyone else to hand everything to her.

Carson: "She wants to talk about how I rely on my old man's legacy! How did Sofia break into wrestling? Her best friend, Alexis Espinoza, handed her a spot. How did she get hired to play make believe wrestling by Sabre? Alexis put in a word for her. How did she get a chance to commentate for the Supernovas Tournament? These two pushovers on commentary welcomed her with open arms." She looks at Jay & Jazz and scoffs. "And here we are, in ICW. Which so happens to have Alexis Espinoza in charge now. And what's the VERY FIRST THING that woman does!?" Carson could help but laugh. "She...she gives Sofia a match with me... for the WFA Women's Title. All because Sofia needs to be handed everything for her to succeed."

At that moment, Carson opens her bag and reveals the WFA Women's Title. She stares at it for a bit before placing it over her shoulder.

Carson: "And now she wants to walk around preaching that I was never the best women's wrestler and that I got where I am because of my family. Let me make something very clear: you don't know ANYTHING about being a second-generation talent! You don't know the pressure of living up to your family, especially when your father was viewed as THE GREATEST wrestler OF ALL TIME! You don't know ANY of the pressure that comes with being the best, Sofia, because you never knew how to work for something on your own! I didn't get to ICW because of my name! I got here because I'm the BEST damn wrestler they ever saw! My father NEVER taught me to be a wrestler, I did all of this ON MY OWN! And YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU EARNED A SHOT AGAINST ME!?"

The crowd chants "YES!"

Carson: "You haven't earned SHIT, Reynoso! I haven't spent YEARS carrying a Women's Division just for some spoiled street rat to come in and steal my spot! I've carried the WFA Women's division ON MY BACK since day one, and I am the standard bearer of how to be a legitimate wrestler, with legitimate accolades and titles! I don't give a damn how many main events you've been in or how many five star, six star, seven, eight, nine, ten star matches you've had! Because the only thing that matters in wrestling are championships, and until you've earned THIS TITLE-" she points to the WFA Women's Title "You'll never be on my level! And come New Horizon, Sofia, it's gonna be a wake-up call. I'm gonna expose you for the sham that you are. And when everyone is looking at me holding this title over your beaten body, the world will finally realize that Sofia is a wannabe Carson Michaels!"

The crowd boos Carson out of the building! HBC looks around….tells everyone to "Suck It!" She then holds up the WFA Women's Title and leaves the ring.

Jazz: "My word….what a hate-filled promo by Carson Michaels. She's not out to just beat Sofia, she's aiming to embarrass her at New Horizon!"

Jay: "I can't help but agree with everything that she just said! Sofia's been handed everything, including this title match with Carson! What legitimate achievement has she accomplished to earn a shot over any other woman?"

Jazz: "I'll agree that there are definitely women out there that deserve a shot, but no one has stood up for and promoted women's wrestling more than Sofia. Not just in the ring, but everywhere she goes. And for my money, she has definitely earned the right to step up and challenge Carson in the main event of New Horizon! No matter if it's Night 1 or Night 2! And speaking of women main eventing, we will get a taste of that later on when Angelica Rhodes, Kailene Starr, and Natalia Rodriguez compete in a Triple Threat Match in a chance to face Daria for the ICW Women's Title at New Horizon!"

Jay: "We will also see the sophisticated duo of Alexander Magnus and Rodri Montoya, who now call themselves Sovereignty, make their in-ring debut against La Familia's Freddy Escobar and Detrick Cyrus! And they'll be accompanied by their cousin, Mateo Guerrero! We'll also hear from Mark Jacobs, the man that attacked the Heavyweight Champion & #1 Contender!"

Jazz: "All this and more coming up later on the show! But coming up next, we're gonna start off the in-ring action with "The Ace of Pro Wrestling" Jason Sabre making his ICW singles debut against "The Rabbid Street Dog" Dylan Torres!"

The screen cuts backstage to the office of Evan Neal…..which had photos and frames of his face everywhere. There were awards and trophies on a display case next to his desk, where he was sitting. Behind him was a big portrait of himself hanging up on the wall.

As Evan was looking over some paperwork, he could hear a loud commotion coming from next door...in Alexis's office. It suddenly went silent for a second...until a pissed off Sofia Reynoso kicks the door open and CHARGES at Neal! She grabs him by his collar and drags him over his desk and holds him against a wall!

Sofia: "THE FUCK YOU MEAN I'M BANNED, NEAL!?"

Neal: "WOAH WOAH WOAH! WHAT IS GOING ON!?" He says shocked.

Sofia: She slams him against the wall. "ANSWER MY GODDAMN QUESTION BEFORE I SHOVE YOUR FACE UP YOUR-"

Alexis: "Put him down, Sofia."

Sofia turns to see Alexis standing at the doorway. She takes a moment to breathe and calm down before pushing Neal to the ground. Evan stumbles to his feet and adjusts himself. Alexis then glares at Neal.

Alexis: "Evan. Who gave you permission to ban Sofia?" She asks.

Neal: He regains his composure and clears his throat. "Ahem. Well, Ms. Espinoza, the fact that your friend here ran up and ATTACKED someone in the middle of the parking lot is enough for her to be punished! That unlawful behavior and action will NOT be tolerated!"

Sofia: "Bitch I'll show you unlawful behavior when I smash your face through that desk!" She threatens before Alexis puts a hand on her shoulder.

Alexis: "I'll handle this." She says then turns to Evan. "Sofia may have done something that should be punished, but you do NOT have the right to give consequences without MY say so!"

Evan: "But at some point, even your 'essays' need to understand that there are rules and regulations here! Sofia just assaulted a defenseless Carson before either of them even got into the building! No matter who it is, that action cannot go unpunished! And deep down, Ms. Espinoza, you know that as well!"

Sofia: "Ight, fuck this! You're dead, Neal!"

She cracked her fists and approached Evan, causing him to stumble behind his desk. But she stopped when Alexis placed a hand on her shoulder.

Alexis: "Sofia, don't." She says calmly.

Sofia: She turns to her in disbelief. "Are you forreal!? Don't tell me you agree with this asswipe!"

Alexis: "Oh hell no. I would never agree with him." She says. "But I do need to set an example for everyone else here. I can't allow people to believe it's okay to cause mayhem and think they can get away with it because they were inspired by you. I'm now in a position where I need to look at the overall picture for ICW. You will still face Carson. But for now, take the night off. Go with the guys and grab some drinks. Please do this for me, okay?" She asks her.

Sofia: She looks at Alexis for a minute, glares at Evan, then sighs. "Fine. But ONLY because you personally asked me to. But as soon as I come back, Carson's ass is finished!" She turns to leave, then stops. "Oh and one more thing-" she turns to Evan and raises a fist to punch him. Neal was so startled that he fell back and crashed to the floor! "Puta." She calls him before leaving.

Alexis: She looks down at Evan. "...You really had that coming, Neal."

Alexis left and Evena was on the floor with a glare on his face. The screen then cuts back to the arena.

Weight of my Pride (by Pay Money to My Pain) plays and EVERYONE pops HARD! The Beginning instrumentals kick in as lights turn red & blue. At the lyrics, smoke shoots up from the sides of the stage, and he appears through it wearing a jacket and his long pants & boots that are split down the middle between red & blue. The red side has "Ace" written on it in blue and the blue side has "Sabre" written in red. He takes a moment to soak up the ovation as the lights dims and a spotlight shines on him. He walks down the ramp, slapping hands along the way. Sabre then jumps onto the ring apron and climbs to the top turnbuckle, where he does his gun taunt with his middle finger, index, and thumb. He then jumps down to the middle of the ring as a spotlight shines on him. After a few seconds of the crowd cheering for him, he does the gun shot taunt once more.

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, standing 6ft tall & weighing in at 235 lbs: 'The Ace of Pro Wrestling' JASON SABRE!"

Jazz: "This is Jason Sabre's singles debut for ICW. Fresh off of an amazing Legends of New School win at Immortality 2 against Monarchy, he now marches towards a personal showdown against DJ Kingston at New Horizon! But first, he has to face DJ's close friend and longtime tag partner: Dylan Torres!"

Jay: "I bet you that Sabre thinks this is gonna be a walk in the park, Jazz! He's doubting DJ, Caesar, and Dylan's abilities to compete in the ring, let alone beat him! I'm telling you, Jazz: one day, Sabre's ego is going to cost him!"

As the lights return to normal, he removes his jacket and shows off his abs. He leans against the corner as HEAT (by Brockhampton) plays. The crowd starts booing as a wall of pyro erupts from the stage. Dylan Torres walks out with a scowl and has on nothing but a black muscle shirt, black basketball shorts, and black wrestling boots. DJ Kingston and King Caesar follow behind him as Dylan flips off the crowd. They respond by chanting "YOU HAVE FLEAS!" DJ took a seat next to the commentary table, without putting on the headset, and Caesar stood next to him with his arms folded. Dylan rolls into the ring and stares across from Sabre, who remains composed as ever.

"Introducing his opponent, accompanied to the ring by King Caesar & DJ Kingston, from Detroit Michigan, standing 6'5" & weighing in at 265 lbs: 'The Rabbid Street Dog' DYLAN TORRES!"

Jay: "This is quite possibly Dylan's biggest match of his career, Jazz! He's been viewed as the 'Hardcore Tag Guy' of Monarchy! Hell, people probably doubt that he can compete in a normal, one-on-one match!"

Jazz: "Sabre's challenge to DJ most likely inspired Dylan to attempt to step up as well! Sabre may only see this as a warm-up, but Dylan might see this as a career-making match for him! He's gonna use his hard-hitting, and borderline, brawler style against Sabre and his plethora of styles!"

The two went face to face as the bell rings. Dylan starts talking smack, but no one could hear him over the loud chants of "JA-SON SA-BRE!" Sabre stood his ground and smirked at Dylan, clearly not taking him seriously. This inrages "The Rabbid Street Dog," and he shoves him! Jason smiles at the crowd, then SMACKS Dylan across the face to a HUGE pop! Dylan rubs his mouth...then Forearms Jason! The crowd boos while Sabre rubs his mouth. "The Ace" then delivers a punch of his own, and the crowd LOVED it! Dylan punches back, as did Sabre, and the two began trading punches! The crowd cheers Jason's punches, but boos when Dylan punches! Soon, Sabre connects with a punch to the gut causing Dylan to stumble! Sabre keeps punching him into the corner before Irish Whipping him! Dylan lands and Sabre charges! But a back elbow from Torres stops Jason and sends him back! Dylan tries for a Clothesline, but Jason ducks and grabs his head! Dylan tries to break out, but he eats an Inverted Backbreaker from "The Ace of Pro Wrestling!" Dylan rolls out to clutch his back while Sabre soaks up the cheers and "JA-SON SA-BRE" chants from the crowd. Sabre looks at DJ and gives him a smirk before running the ropes. He hits a Tope Con Hilo to the outside, knocking Dylan to the floor and landing perfectly on his feet!

Jazz: "This match is all Sabre right now! He is just toying with Dylan, and right in front of DJ as well!"

Jay: "Sabre's ego knows no limits! He's underestimating the loose cannon of Monarchy, and if he keeps it up, he's gonna pay for it real soon!"

Jason takes a moment to high five a fan! He goes to lift Dylan, but Dylan throws Sabre into the barricade! "The Ace" leans against it until Torres slams his head against the apron! Jason stumbles a bit as Dylan gets on the apron. He goes for the Cannonball off the apron…..but Jason simply walks off! Dylan crashes to the floor while Sabre went over and gave a child an autograph. He high fives the boy, earning more cheers, then turns to see his opponent on the ground. "My bad. I forgot we were wrestling." He says to him. Jason rolls him back in the ring and, deciding to show off, skins the cat back in the ring. Jason waits for Dylan to get to a knee, and when he does, he connects with a beautiful Wheel Kick! Jason cover!

1…2 KICKOUT!

Jazz: "Say what you will about Sabre's ego, Jay. But Jason is one of the most dangerous strikers in the business! One kick nearly put Dylan down for the three count!"

Jay: "But it didn't, Jazz! It's gonna take much more than fancy footwork to defeat Dylan!"

Jason drags the heavier opponent back to his feet, and then he forearms him in the face! Dylan stumbles back, and Jason forearms him again! "Come on, street dog!" He says. "Give me your best bite."

Jazz: "Sabre is egging Dylan on to fight back and throw his best shot!"

Jason forearms him again! But that third shot woke something in Dylan, because he fires back with a stiffer forearm! Sabre stumbles back several steps, but Dylan hits him with another one! Jason's stunned, but he fires back with one of his own! The two traded forearms to the face, each time the crowd cheering louder! Dylan hits one siff Forearm and knocks Sabre to the ropes! Dylan keeps Forearming him repeatedly before letting out a battle cry!

Jay: "Dylan's getting fired up! He literally has 'The Ace' against the ropes!"

Jason stays slumped over until Torres lifts him up. An Irish Whip follows, but Jason ducks a Discus Forearm and hits an Ace level Slingblade! This knocks Dylan's down for a bit, but when he's up, Jason hits a German Suplex! Dylan no-sells, rolls back to his feet, and hits a German of his own! But Jason no-sells to a sweet crowd pop! Sabre Superkicks Dylan to the ropes! Dylan bounces off and attempts a Discus Big Boot, but Jason ducks and runs the ropes! He attempts another Slingblade, but he instead runs into a Michinoku Driver II! Dylan hooks both his legs!

1...2…KICKOUT!

Jazz: "Jason just BARELY kicks out at 2 after a Michinoku Driver!"

Jay: "Dylan has to stay on him! He can't let up just yet!"

Dylan couldn't believe Jason kicked out! The crowd breaks out a "This Is Awesome" chant! Dylan lifts Jason to his feet and Chops him across the chest! Jason stumbles, clearly feeling the effect of the Driver, but he comes back with a slap across Dylan's face! In response, Dylan rubs his mouth and forearms him again! Sabre answers with one of his own, and they went back to trading Forearms! The crowd cheers for the exchange, even chanting "Yes!" Both men became tired and could barely stand, but they kept hitting each other with forearms! Dylan steps back a bit… then suddenly tackles Jason in the corner! He elbows Jason in the ribs over and over! Dylan then hits a hard Clothesline! Sabre stumbles forward, and Dylan lifts him up for a Powerbomb! But Jason punches him several times and hits a Hurricanrana! As Dylan stumbles up, Jason attempts a Wheel Kick, but Dylan grabs it! He spins him around and FLOORS him with the Discus Lariat!

Jazz: "Good lord! That Lariat knocked Sabre's head off!"

Jay: "Jason Sabre is out! This is Dylan's moment!

Dylan lets out another battle cry while lifting Sabre by his hair. He hooks Jason's arm over the shoulder for his Made in Detroit (STO). But Jason elbows him in the jaw until he collapses! The crowd was on fire for "The Ace of Pro Wrestling!" Jason superkick Dylan, but Dylan doesn't go down! He instead yells another scream and charges! But Jason ducks him and runs the ropes! Dylan goes for a Lariat, but Jason hits the Koppu Kick to the arm! Jason then gets up and attempts the Final Strike (Ripcord Lariat), but Dylan catches him with the Forearm instead! Torres rubs his jaw, looks down at Jason, and lets out the Violence Party (he stomps down, knee drops, fist drops, and headbutts him then ends with a Running Senton! Dylan lets out one more scream as the crowd rallies for Sabre! Dylan drags Jason up and attempts Made in Detroit once more. But as Dylan lifts his foot up, Jason rolls behind him and goes for a Roll-Up! But Dylan pushes him away! Both rolls to their feet….Final Resolution (Kinshasa) from Jason! The crowd pops for the Final Resolution! Jason makes the cover!

1….2….3!

"Here is your winner: JASON SABRE!"

Jazz: "After a hard-hitting bout, it is Jason Sabre that picks up the victory over Dylan!"

Jay: "Dylan put up a hell of an effort, Jazz! He has nothing to be ashamed about!"

The crowd cheers as Jason gets up, rubbing his jaw. His hand was raised in victory. DJ & Caesar got up and helped Dylan to the back. DJ looks back at Jason, who stood at the top turnbuckle and posed for the crowd. He looks at DJ and says "I am the Ace of Pro Wrestling!"

Jazz: "'I am the Ace of Pro Wrestling.' No truer words have ever been spoken by Jason Sabre. And to think, we only caught a glimpse of what Sabre is capable of when he's in a big match situation!"

Jay: "But we've all seen what he's able to do! DJ, on the other hand, hasn't been able to showcase his own skills yet! When the time is right, I guarantee, DJ Kingston will defeat Jason Sabre!"

The screen cuts to Alexis alone in her office. She looks over more paperwork in silence….until the Lords of Wrestling barges in.

Ownes: "ALEXIS! YOU DID THIS!" He yelled walking up to her desk and slammed his hands down.

Espinoza doesn't look up and keeps reading.

Owens: WE KNOW YOU BROUGHT THOSE THUGS HERE TO STEAL OUR STUFF!

Edward: "How convenient is it that the co-owner of ICW, IF that is your real profession, was announced the same day that our personal belongings went missing!"

Aiden: "And the fact that they admitted to taking them only then illegally auctioned them off! To a minor, no less!"

Owens: "You know where they are, you know where are stuff are, and we DEMAND that you return them to-"

Alexis: "Callate!"

The sudden outburst shuts them up. She calmly sets the papers down, gets up, and stares face-to-face at Owens.

Alexis: "Who the hell do you think you are demanding something from me! Don't answer because I'm going to tell you: you're someone who works for me! I get you're upset, but you will NEVER get to yell at my face like the way you three did! La Rebelion listens to what I say and when I say go take what you want to have, they will take whatever they want to have. Because possession is 9/10th of the law, and I AM THE LAW! Now, my boys are currently enjoying the week off after capturing a brand new championship. And since you three want to barge into my office, yell right in front of my face, and demand anything from me, here's what I'm telling you is going to happen: You wanna get your title back? Fight for it, "Prize Fighter!" You're gonna defend the title of "International Champion" next week… against MY muscle: Jesus Garza! Now GET OUT OF MY OFFICE!"

KNA immediately tries to object, but Chris stops them. Owens is red with anger and stares directly at Alexis, who doesn't back down an inch! A couple of tense seconds later, he looks at Espinoza...and leaves. Aiden & Edward follow him out. As they walk away, they run into Evan Neal and his grin.

Neal: "Pop pop cheerio, mates! I saw what went down last week and heard what my business partner said. While I sadly can't do much to change her decision due to her….stern behavior, I can offer you bruvs some measure of revenge: New Horizon. Lords of Wrestling VS La Rebelion!"

L.O.W doesn't say anything. Evan gives them the thumbs up, but they simply leave. The screen soon cuts to the arena. Hannah is standing in the ring.

Hannah: "Ladies & gentlemen, please welcome my guest: the self-proclaimed "Bane of Existence" Mark Jacobs!"

Lydia (by Highly Suspect) starts to play, and everyone begins to boo! Mark Jacobs walks out wearing a black and white three piece suit and he has his hair in a small man bun. The lights go out as he stands under a faint spotlight. As the lyrics begin, Jacobs looks up as the lights turn on with a flash. Jacobs looks around in disgust before slowly walking down to the ring.

Jazz: "Last week, Mark Jacobs made his Battlefield debut by blindsiding both Will Ralston and Asher Darma. The brutal attack left both men knocked out as Mark held up the Heavyweight Title!"

Jay: "Mark made a brutal statement, Jazz! He made his intentions known and wasn't gonna wait in line!"

He climbs the steps and steps onto the apron. He turns towards the crowd, smirking as he raises his hands on either side of him. He steps through the middle rope and gets to the center of the ring. He looks around before doing the "Baneful'' throat slit. He soon walks over and paces back and forth.

Hannah: "Mark, last week-"

Mark suddenly swipes the mic out of Hannah's hand.

Mark: "Get out of my ring. I don't want you here." He says to a LOUD chorus of boos.

Hannah gives him a bitter look, but opted to just leave the ring. "That's right, Hannah. Take your ass out of my ring and go hide backstage. I don't want you here when I'm speaking!" Hannah just shakes her head and leaves. The crowd continues to hurl boos at Jacbos, but he did not seem bothered by this.

Mark: "I would introduce myself, but after last week on Battlefield, most of you people know exactly who I am. And if some of you still don't know who I am, then you were never worth my time in the first place. But just know that I am the next ICW Heavyweight Champion."

Everyone continues to boo.

Mark: "But just for the ignorant people that don't know what I did, I'm gonna recap for you. Last week, I showed up and laid a beating to the Heavyweight Champion, that Scottish wannabe Braveheart: Will Ralston! AND I assaulted the #1 Contender, the Indian doormat: Asher Darma! And why did I do that? One, because I felt like it. And two, because I wanted to send a message to everyone: neither of them are worthy to hold that title!"

Everyone keeps booing!

Mark: "Let's look at Asher Darma. Yeah, I'm man enough to admit it: the first time we fought, he quote-on-quote 'beat me.' But make no mistake, the pushover got lucky. Out of the kindness of my black heart, I allowed him the privilege of knowing what it's like to be somebody special just for one day! People that step in a ring with me, I make them famous. That win was the only thing Darma did that was worth giving a damn about….and it'll be the ONLY thing about him anyone remembers! As for Will Ralston….. the first time I met him in a wrestling match, he had just won that title. You wanna know what happened next? I KICKED HIS ASS IN SECONDS! I EMBARRASSED the title holder without breaking a SWEAT! Just like what happened to him and Darma last week!"

More boos rain down on Mark.

Mark: "Will loves to hand people opportunities to make himself relevant. Why because he's 'a proud Scottsman that watched Braveheart 15 million times and still can't get over my brother's death!'" He said in a mocking Scottish tone. "And Darma likes to beg for opportunities just to 'keep a promise I made to my neighbor's dog and to the fish in the pond I get my water from all because I don't want to work in a call center!'" He said in a mocking Indian accent. "I'm not here to do any of that shit! I'm not here to hand out opportunities nor am I here to wait for them! I'm just gonna take and take and TAKE whatever I want whenever I want! Because I am the best goddamn thing that's ever happened to this place! This isn't a gimmick! NO ONE is on my level! And I don't care what you people think, I don't care how those second-rate wrestlers in the back feel about me, I don't care about what these wannabe commentators say about me, I damn sure don't give two shits about what Evan Neal thinks of me, and I'll take great pleasure in making Espinoza's life a living hell! So get used to this face, people. Because I'm Mark Jacobs, I'm the Bane of Your Motherfucking Existence, and I am the next ICW Heavyweight Champion!"

More boos rain down on Mark. But everything changes when A House That's Not Quite Home (by Junior) starts to play! The crowd POPS for Asher, who walks out with a smile on his face.

Jazz: "Thank goodness that Asher came out! Cause Mark's been terribly disrespectful to both him and Will!"

Jay: "I can't help but agree with some of Mark's points. He believes in his mind that no one's worthy of holding that title! Especially compared to Will & Asher!"

He walks down the ramp, high fiving the fans, and waving to everyone else. He soon enters the ring and is handed a mic. He turns and smiles at Mark, who looked annoyed.

Asher: "It is so nice to see you again, Mark for the Jacobs. I have cherished our wrestling match in the Finals for the Cup of the Supernovas where I was victorious!" The crowd cheers for Asher while Mark just stands there. "But attacking the people that work hard for everyone is not very nice of you. There was no reason to attack someone when they are looking in a different direction. And what you have just said was not nice to the men and women that work hard to make these people happy!"

Mark just shook his head while the crowd chanted "DAR-MA! DAR-MA!"

Asher: "And I also heard the comments you have made for myself and the champion I will defeat to become a double champion: William Ralston. What you have said was not kind and I am requesting that you give an apology to the fans who you have upset."

Mark: "You want me to…" Mark couldn't help but laugh and shake his head "Are you serious? You're getting upset because I 'wasn't nice?'" Mark got in Asher's face. "GROW UP! You oughta be bowing down, kissing my feet, and THANKING me that you're in this position! You have the BIGGEST match of your pathetic life and you're too occupied about 'being nice' and requesting apologies' to get it through your ignorant head!"

He points at the side of Asher's head, causing The Slumdog to back away.

Mark: "Face it, kid. You ain't cut out for this role. You ain't BUILT to carry a World Title because you ain't got the instinct of a World Champion. What I did to you last week proved that. Hell, it even proved that your win over me was a fluke! In reality, you can't hang with me on this level, Darma! And I'm warning you now: back out of this. Give me the World Title match against Ralston, and save yourself the embarrassment of letting down your people when it matters most! Because I will be fighting for that title, I will beat the piss outta Ralston to take it, and I will put your head in the dirt if you even THINK about getting in my way!"

Asher: He frowns. But he kept his composure. "...I understand you dislike me, Mark for the Jacobs. But bullying and making fun of people is wrong. Because bullies always lose in the end. Just like how you lost in the Finals of the Tournament of Supernovas that put me here in the first place."

The crowd popped HARD for Asher's statement! As they chant "DAR-MA," Mark rubbed his mouth and shook his head.

Mark: "You know what, Asher? I was being nice the last time we fought. This time? I'm gonna end your-"

Before he could finish, Will runs in and attacks him from behind!

Jay: "Ralston's here! He's going right after Mark Jacobs!"

Jazz: "Will finally had enough of this guy, and he's out for revenge!"

The two brawl in front of Asher, who the crowd was still rooting for! Darma watches Will and Mark fight, and he knew what to do! So the "Slumdog" runs over... to try and separate them! He grabs Will and tries to pull him away. However, this allows Mark to shove Asher into Will and roll out of there! Mark backed away up the ramp as Will glares at Mark! He then turns to Asher with that same glare. Asher gives a smile and offers a hand. But Will just ignores him and rolls out of the ring. The crowd boos Will for leaving Asher like that.

Jazz: "I can't help but suspect Will doesn't trust anyone. Asher's done nothing to antagonize him, but the way he brushed Darma off does not sit well with the crowd."

Jay: "Winners understand that it's lonely at the top. He isn't here to make friends, but to keep his title. He might not have attacked Asher like he did to Mark, but that doesn't mean he's gonna be Asher's friend."

Jazz: "Well still to come is the three way #1 contender match for the ICW Women's Championship. Also, we will hear from both CJ Hawk about Katashi Suzuki and the return of Chris Blade after being savagely beaten at Immortality 2!"

There is a sound of a beating heart as a hooded man punches a sandbag repeatedly.

The heartbeat speeds up, it cuts to him doing pushups, lifting weights, and bouncing the rope.

It speeds up even faster, and it shows the figure shadowboxing and still punching the sandbag even harder.

The heartbeat beats even faster as a quickshot of all the training flashes. When it flatlines, the hooded man walks down the hallway. The screen then lights up

"JADEN SENNOA IS COMING…"

The screen cuts to Brandon Andrews in the interview room.

Brandon: "Ladies & gentlemen, please welcome my guest at this time: the ICW Demolition Champion, Furno Moxley!"

Furno walks up to Brandon.

Brandon: "Since the start of the season, you have been the target of Chris Wolf. Last week, you even attacked him after his No Holds Barred match. But even after that, he seems hellbent on challenging you for the Demolition Title. Can you comment on Chris Wolf and his actions?"

Furno: "I know what he's trying to do. He's trying to goat me into giving him a title shot because in his mind, he thinks he's just as violent and dangerous as I am. And I get it, he's been here just as long as I have, yet nobody takes him seriously. He wants to prove himself, and that's understandable." He looks at Brandon. "But here's what Wolf needs to realize: he ain't shit. He's never been shit. In his mind, he's violence personified. In reality? He's a wannabe backyard wrestler. He ain't tough enough to step in a ring with me nor take the Demolition Title. So here's my final warning to him: if he keeps testing my patience...if he keeps running up on me and acting tough, then I'm going to stop his head in and leave him in a pool of his own blood. But right now, I'm gonna go stomp William Dawkins's head in."

Furno nods at Brandon before making his way to the ring. The crowd cuts back to the arena.

The arena lights dim as Do I Wanna Know? (by Arctic Monkeys) begins to play, staying that way for a while, making the crowd wait. Once the chorus hits, a spotlight shines on William Dawkins posing on stage triumphantly. Golden sparks shower down behind him as he proceeds to make his way to the ring. Dawkins steps in and gets on one knee, spreading his arms out. He now appears with a muscular and toned build, curly ginger hair kept closely cropped and styled into a pompadour and facial hair of the same color styled into a chinstrap beard paired with a moustache along with bright green eyes. Dawkins is wearing dark blue tights with a golden lion on both sides as well as black boots and black wrist tape. He also wears black sleeveless leather longcoat with his trademark Golden Lion logo on the back of it.

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Cambridge, England, standing 6'1" & weighing 230 lbs: 'The Golden Lion' WILLIAM DAWKINS!"

Jay: "I can't help but feel bad for William Dawkins! He was one of the poor victims at the hands of Azriel! But worst of all: he's without Alessia Perez! I mean, he still has so much money that he can buy out everyone's contracts in the WFA and still only lose about 4% of his wealth!"

Jazz: "Feeling bad for someone who believes that money can buy happiness is ridiculous. My heart goes out to Alessia, but it's time Dawkins tries to succeed without always relying on her. Especially against a former Heavyweight Champion, Furno Moxley!"

Dawkins suddenly takes the mic.

William: "Oi! All of you peasants listen up!" He says to boos. "Before this match starts, I am dedicating this match to my sweetheart, Alessia Perez, who's still recovering after….after... being thrown through multiple tables by Azriel!" The crowd cheers, which angered Dawkins. "In an unprovoked assault AND in front of my wealthy friends & family! But no worries, because she has my personal finest and expensive doctors to watch over her! I mean, I needed to be taken care of first because I am money, but that's not the point! Right now, I am here out of revenge against everything that is Hardcore! And that's starting with the Demolition Champion himself!"

Once Dawkins finishes talking, the lights go off. Trophies of Violence (by While She Sleeps) plays as the Titantron shows a burning Punisher skull. Then red lights begin to flash like crazy as Furno walks out to the stage and slowly crouches. After the drum part, Furno quickly stands up and raises a finger gun with his left hand with his right hand following suit. The red lights turn white and still flash like crazy. Furno fires the two finger guns at the opponent in the ring, causing fire to explode from the turnbuckles and from the stage. He then walks to the ring, taking off his jacket and mask, and holds up the Demolition Title.

"Introducing his opponent, representing Re-Vengeance, from Cincinnati, Ohio, standing 6'2" & weighing in at 235 lbs, he is the ICW Demolition Champion: 'The Psycho Assassin' FURNO MOXLEY!"

Jazz: "Furno Moxley is at the top of the world of violence! However, he seems to be the target of one Chris Wolf, almost to the point of obsession!"

Jay: "Furno has a big target on his back! One guy wants to prove his the most violent guy in ICW, and the other is WAY richer and wants to ruin Hardcore wrestling!"

Jazz: "It's a classic battle of brawling versus technica styles. Though without Alessia, it'll be interesting to see how Dawkins does on his own."

The bell rings and the two pace the ring. They try to lock up, but Dawkins ducks behind him and grabs his waist. Furno breaks the grip then grabs him behind his own waist! He immediately went for a German Suplex, but William grabs his leg and trips him to the mat. He dived on him for a cover, but Furno pushed him off before the referee could count! Both men get to their feet and stare down. "You and your Hardcore Wrestling is a cancer to this industry!" He says poking him. In response, Furno punches him in his rich face! Dawkins grabs his face which allows Furno the chance to apply a Side Headlock Takedown! Dawkins struggles to break free while Moxley looks like he's relaxed. William finally pushes himself to his feet, but Furno simply tosses him to the ropes! William rebounds right into a Back Body Drop! "The Golden Lion" clutches his back while Furno just looks at him. The Demolition Champion then scoops him up and Body Slams him HARD! He runs the ropes and hits a Back Elbow Drop! He goes for the cover.

1...KICKOUT!

Jazz: "It's all Furno in the openings of this match so far." She says.

Jay: "He's clearly still upset about the brutal assault that Alessia is still recovering from! It's hard for Dawkins to get things going without her in his corner!"

Furno drags William in the corner then kicks him repeatedly! He whips him to the opposite corner then comes flying in with a Forearm shot! He attempts a Running Bulldog, but William pushes Furno off then rolls out of the ring! William tries to recover, but Furno slides out & goes after him. William quickly backs away then rolls back in the ring. Furno rolls back in, but Dawkins immediately stomps down on him! Dawkins then lifts Furno against the ropes and Chops him. But Furno just stares at Dawkins with a crazed look! He then grabs his neck and pushes him against the ropes, delivering a Chop of his own! And another! And a third for good measures! He whips Dawkins across the ring, but "The Golden Lion" holds on to the ropes! Moxley charges and Dawkins hits a Flapjack onto the ropes! Furno stumbles back a bit and Dawkins hits around then falls to his knee, grabbing his neck! Dawkins then runs and hits a Regal Knee to the back of his head! He goes for the cover!

1...2 KICKOUT!

Jay: "Look at that, Jazz! Dawkins almost beat Furno and ruined Hardcore Wrestling! All by himself!"

Jazz: "Keyword being 'almost.' Furno is still kicking, and it'll take much more to put down the Demolition Champion!"

William spreads his arms out to some boos. He then picks him up and goes for a Vertical Suplex. But Moxley lands behind him and Clothesline the back of his head! Dawkins collapses, but Moxley wasn't done. He picks him up and throws him into the ring post! Moxley pulls him back and follows up with a German Suplex, throwing him across the ring! Dawkins pulls himself to the ropes and digs in his pockets. Furno picks him up….and Dawkins tries to swing a punch at him! But Moxley catches it...and a roll of quarters fell out of his hand!

Jazz: "Well would you look at that! Dawkins attempted the Chump Change, but Furno caught him red-handed!"

Jay: "H-How do you know he was about to hit him!? He probably tried to give it to the fans like he usually does!"

Furno looks down at them then back at Dawkins. William looks terrified and begs for mercy. "I-I'll pay you! How much? 1000? 10,000? 50,000?" Furno just stares at him for a bit….then hits a Pump Handle Back Suplex! Dawkins stumbles up, and Moxley knocks him back down with his V for Vendetta (V-Trigger)! Dawkins slumps down, and Furno hooks his arms for the Death Rider….until Chris Wolf rushes in behind him and hits the Cabin in the Woods (Lumbar Check)!

Jazz: "MY WORD! Chris Wolf just attacked Furno Moxley and laid him out!"

Jay: "What did I tell you, Jazz!? Chris Wolf wants nothing more than to fight Furno!

The referee immediately called for the bell as Dawkins rolled out of the ring.

"Your winner by disqualification: FURNO MOXLEY!"

Barely anyone paid attention to the announcement. Wolf slides out and grabs Furno's Demolition Title. He slides back in and waits for him to get back up. With a crazed and desperate look in his eyes, Chris smacks Furno in the face with the title! The bell keeps ringing as Chris punches Furno repeatedly in the face! The rest of Re-Vengeance rushes out, and Wolf scurries out of them! Everyone could see Furno's face bleeding from the belt shot. Aiden and Raptor check on him while Wolf snatches a mic. He backs up the ramp while staring at Moxley.

Wolf: "I ain't shit? I AIN'T SHIT, MOXLEY!? LOOK AT WHAT I JUST DID TO YOU! I made you taste your own blood! The baddest and most dangerous man in ICW just got his head busted open by me! You ain't the top dog, Moxley! You ain't the predator! I AM! And I'm going to hunt you down and rip that Demolition Title from your hands! I'm SICK of everyone looking at me like I'm weak! I'M THE ALPHA MALE! I'M THE FACE OF VIOLENCE! AND I'M NOT GONNA STOP UNTIL YOU FACE ME FOR YOUR TITLE!"

Moxley watches him, enraged and his face bloody. Wolf tosses the mic aside and points to Furno. "Give me what I want, Moxley! I'm not gonna stop until I get that shot!" Aiden & Raptor try to help Furno up, but he pushes them aside. He stumbles over and gets a mic of his own.

Moxley: "WOLF!" He yells. "I told you what would happen if you pissed me off! You want to fight me!? You want to throw your life away!? You think you're violent enough to fight me for this title! Be careful what you beg for, BECAUSE IT'LL COST YOU EVERYTHING! YOU'RE ON!"

Chris lets out a smile, but Furno is seething in rage! Wolf points to that title and starts to talk smack. But when Aiden & Raptor left the ring, Chris quickly backed away. Moxley stares daggers into Chris as he leaves.

Jazz: "Chris Wolf, after busting Furno wide open, finally gets his wish for a Demolition Title Match! However, he better be careful about what he wishes for. Because he now has to fight a PISSED OFF Furno Moxley!"

Jay: "Chris Wolf has nothing to lose, but Moxley has everything at stake! His title, his reputation, everything! Chris is indeed the alpha hunter against Furno! With that said, William Dawkins was ROBBED tonight, and he deserves justice!"

Jazz: "He'll be alright. Anyways, still to come is the triple threat #1 contender's match between Angelica, Natalia, & Kailene! But right now, we're going to turn it over to Hannah, standing by with her special guest. Who, I hope, are much kinder to her than Mark Jacobs."

Screen cuts backstage to Hannah, who got over her situation with Mark, standing in the interview room.

Hannah: "Ladies & gentlemen, please welcome my guests at this time, La Familia: Freddy Escobar, Detrick Cyrus….and Mateo Guerrero!"

Freddy, Detrick, and Mateo walk on-screen together.

Hannah: "Freddy. Detrick. Last week, you two were setting up what would be a potential tag team championship match against the Wayne Bros when you four were suddenly attacked by Alexander Magnus and Rodri Montoya, also known as Sovereignty. Tonight, you two are set to face them in tag team action. What are your thoughts on this match and your opponents?"

Freddy: "This isn't the first time we've been attacked from behind, Hannah." He says. "They got some good shots in, but Detrick & I don't go down that easily."

Detrick: "I'm sure Magnus & Rodri are decent as a team, but they don't got the bond we have. La Familia are gonna hand this beating to Sovereignty, and then we'll turn our attention to the tag champs."

Hannah: "And this question is for you, Mateo. Most people feel that you cannot be trusted. With that in mind, what can we expect from you alongside Freddy and Detrick?"

Mateo: "I can see why people would doubt my intentions." He admits. "I'm a Guerrero, it's in our nature to lie, cheat, & steal. But I care too much about mi primos, my cousins. They're like brothers to me, and I don't want to hurt them again. I have their backs whenever they need it, because family is forever."

Freddy: "Now if you'll excuse us, Hannah, we have a match to prepare for. Come find us after we get this win."

Freddy, Detrick, & Mateo turn to leave, but they stop when they see The Wayne Bros coming up to them.

Devin: "We come in peace." He says. "We just wanted to wish you luck on your match tonight. We'll be watching."

Derrick: "So kick their butts for us, and then we'll resume our tag title conversation." The two glance at their tag titles on their shoulders. "Oh, and it's nice to meet you, Mateo."

Mateo: "Yeah….you too." He says watching them.

With that, La Familia watched the Wayne Bros leave them be. Soon, the screen cuts back to the ring.

Unusual Habit (by Silent Partner) plays, and Chris Blade walks out in his casual jeans, shirt, shoes, and hoodie. He did not pose or smile much. Nor did he interact with the cheering crowd. He just walks to the ring calmly.

Jazz: "You can't help but wonder what's going through Blade's head right now. After failing to capture the Heavyweight Title, he was then assaulted by the group known as Revolution! And last week, we heard the reason why they did what they did as well as their goal to remove the old guards like Chris."

Jay: "Brutal but effective describes Revolution. I wouldn't be surprised if Blade is coming out to say goodbye after what he went through."

Blade walks up the steps and enters the ring. He asks for a mic before leaning against the ropes.

Chris Blade: "Immortality 2...I had my most important match of my career. I gave it everything I had, risked my health, and in the end….I came up short." He sighs. "Honestly, at that moment, as I realized I lost, I felt that my time here was over. Eventually, the future becomes the present, and the present becomes the past. And I felt that I had become the past."

Chris Blade: "But as I was coming to terms with that fact, something special happened to me: I came face to face with the future that goes by Revolution. Ava Knight, Clay Marrow, Christian McIntyre, and Sai Russo. Those four individuals decided that it was time for me to go and tried to end my existence then and there."

He gets off the ropes and paces, now full of fire.

Chris Blade: "But here's the thing, if they wanted me gone….they shouldn't have left me breathing. They don't get to dictate when Chris Blade's time is over. Only I can say when this is over, and Revolution? This is FAR from over! I heard what they said last week. I know they're listening right now. And they gave everyone a choice: Stand with them or fall with us. Well I have my own third option: I'm gonna fight against the Revolution!"

He drops the mic as the crowd cheers. But the mood shifts when Unstoppable (by Motionless in White) plays. The tron lights up with the REVOLUTION logo as Ava Knight, Clay Marrow (with a bag full of merch) and Christian McIntyre walk out. Chris Blade removes his hoodie and prepares for a fight.

Clay: "Chris Blade, buddy….you were never a priority to Revolution. You were just a means to an end. A prop for us to use to spread our message."

Ava: "When Revolution arrived, we looked to spread our words through our actions. You were never anything special, Chris Blade. You just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. And to be completely honest? You should have stayed home and never returned. Because what you said just now? It's undermining the Revolution and the change we aim to bring. You made your choice, and now you're going to suffer the consequences."

The trio calmly walks down the ramp at first...but then Clay & Christian storm the ring and knock Blade to the mat! Everyone watches as they violently beat him down, even ripping his shirt and choking him with it! Christian headbutts Blade repeatedly while Clay stomps down on his chest! He grabs a REVOLUTION belt merch and starts BEATING him with it! Ava rolls in the ring and KICKS Blade in the face! They just savagely beat him down until he could barely move!

Jazz: "What violent assault by these three! They meant what they said they were going to make Chris Blade pay for standing against them."

Jay: "I have to agree, Jazz. They are brutal in their methods and- H-hey! What are you guys doing!?"

Jay and Jazz grew nervous when Ava, Clay, & Christian rolled out of the ring and surrounded the announce table. Christiand then grabs Jay by his neck and slams him against the table! Jazz got up in shock, but she ended up backing into Ava! And with a calm, chilled smile, she GRABS HER BY THE NECK AND PRESSES HER AGAINST HER SEAT!" While all of this was going on, Sai Russo slowly walked out with his sunglasses on and hands in his pocket. He walks down the ramp as Clay grabs a mic.

Clay: "We warned you two what would happen when we saw you again. It's like we said: we're not some cheap knock-off. We are Revolution. After today, everyone will know exactly who we are."

Sai Russo makes it down the ramp as Christian & Ava look in the commentary's eyes. "WE ARE REVOLUTION!" Christian yells at Jay before slamming him against the barricade! Ava looks at Jazz's terrified eyes and asks. "Who are we?" "R-Revo...lution…" Jazz says. "Good girl." She lets her go, and the trio sees Sai enter the ring. He's looking down at Chris Blade, who tries crawling up by his leg.

After their beating, they see Sai in the ring. The rest of Revolution slides in and Sai removes his shades. He hands them to Ava while Christian holds Blade up and Clay keeps recording. Sai grabs Blade and drops him with Careless Whisper (Lifting Rolling Cutter)! The crowd keeps booing while Christian helps Sai up. They all look down at Blade (Clay still records a bit longer then ends it). Ava hands the shades back to Sai, who puts them back on. They all face the crowd, and Christian yells out:

Christian: "WE ARE REVOLUTION! AND WE WILL DESTROY ANYONE THAT STANDS AGAINST US!"

Revolution finally leaves the scene of destruction. Multiple officials came out to help carry Chris Blade out of there while they checked up on a knocked out Jay and a traumatized Jazz. The screen immediately cuts to black.

After a few minutes, the cameras cut back to Evan Neal's office, where he was wiping down a framed photo of himself. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and Elijah Holiday wheels Tate Williams into the room.

Neal: "Ah! My two favorite gentlemen! Perfect timing! I wanted to let you two know that I signed off on your request for paid time off to rest and recover!"

Elijah: "That is wonderful to hear, Mr. Neal. However, we seem to have a bit of an issue-"

Tate: "WHY THE HELL AM I STILL SCHEDULED TO COMPETE!?" He interrupts. "ESPECIALLY IN MY CONDITION!?"

Neal: "Woah woah woah. Wait a minute. I never signed off on having you compete in any fashion!"

Elijah: He calms Tate down a bit then clears his throat. "Well, then explain this form we've received that demands Tate Williams compete sometime within the next three weeks or risk being stripped of his Briefcase!"

Elijah opens up Tate's briefcase and hands him the forms. Neal looks over it and is taken aback.

Neal: "I...I never authorized this! This notice is blasphemy and no one has the authority to let this go through!" Realization suddenly dawns on him. "Except...for…"

Alexis: "Me. I signed off on that." The three of them turned to see Espinoza standing in the doorway with her arms folded. Elijah walks up to her and offers a handshake.

Elijah: "You must be the one & only Alexis Espinoza. It is a pleasure to meet you in person. Allow me to introduce myself: I am Elijah Holiday, the legal representative for the holder of the Immortal Opportunity, Marvelous Tate Williams-"

Alexis: "I know who you are." She interrupts walking past him. She then moves straight towards Tate, looking down on him, and snatching the golden briefcase out of his hands!

Tate: "HEY!" He yells suddenly. "YOU HAND THAT BACK TO ME!"

Alexis looks over the briefcase thoroughly. She looks over it with interest, stares at her reflection on it….then tosses it at Tate. All three of them yelled in shock...and caused Tate to jump out of the wheelchair and catch it! Everyone stood in silences as Alexis stared at them.

Alexis: She chuckled. "Pretending to be hurt just to pull a fast one over me, huh? Nice try, but y'all ain't that slick. You can trick Neal all you want, but you're not gonna finesse me. Especially when I have a doctor working for me."

Elijah: "Ms. Espinoza. Let's not do anything irrational here. Why don't we all sit down and discuss these matters-"

Espinoza: "Shove it." She interrupts. "What I say goes, and you will compete within the next few weeks, Tate. Which, conciendentally, happens to be on time for New Horizon."

Neal: "Alexis...what are you planning?" He asks suspiciously and nervously.

Alexis: A smile crept on her face. "At New Horizon, the so-called Marvelous One, Tate Williams, will know true despair when he goes one-on-one….with Azriel!"

With that, Alexis leaves the three men shocked, stunned, and shaking. The screen soon goes to black.

The scene cuts back to the commentary table. But Jay and Jazz were not there anymore. Instead, Hannah and a returning Brandon Andrews now sat in their spots.

Hannah: "Before we continue, I would like to apologize for what you all witnessed. ICW does not condone the actions of Revolution towards Jay and Jazz. For the rest of the program, Brandon and I will be taking over commentary duties.

Brandon: "I, myself, understand what our colleagues are going through. It was a heinous attack and probably the most terrifying experience I've ever been a part of. But the show must continue, and we will do our best to help give the viewers that're listening a wonderful experience."

Hannah: "But right now, let's transition to our next match of the evening."

Familia (by Nicki Minaj & Anuel AA (Feat. Bantu)) plays as the crowd cheers. Freddy and Detrick walk out, looking around the crowd, while being followed by their cousin, Mateo. They high five the fans and head in the ring. They pose on the top turnbuckle while Mateo stands in the ring.

"The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Mateo Guerrero, at a total combined weight of 459 lbs: 'Freddy Escobar & Detrick Cyrus' LA FAMILIA!"

Hannah: "Freddy Escobar & Detrick Cyrus have made their intentions known that they want to face off against the Wayne Bros. However, their opponents made an impactful statement last week by attacking La Familia. Now Freddy & Detrick are out for a measure of revenge!"

Brandon: "Let's not forget about the third member of La Familia: their cousin, Mateo Guerrero. He might be the wildcard in this affair, but he will be a big boost of momentum for Freddy & Detrick in the weeks to come.

The lights went completely black. The opening to Language is Fatal (Instrumental) (by Jedi Mind Tricks) starts as two spotlights shine down on the stage, directly over Alexander Magnus and Rodri Montoya. The two stand there with their heads down and hands behind their backs. As they lift their heads, the lights return to normal. Magnus is wearing regular black trunks, black boots with the "SOVEREIGNTY" logo on them, & a black coat with the "SOVEREIGNTY" logo on the back and a small UK flag on the upper left side. Rodri is wearing black basketball shorts (with the "SOVEREIGNTY" logo) black knee pads, white Air Jordans, white wrist tape on both hands, and a "SOVEREIGNTY" jersey that has "MONTOYA" & "43" on the back. The two march to the ring and climb on the apron. They rub their feet before stepping inside. They stand in the middle and place their hands behind their back.

"Introducing their opponents, at a total combined weight of 520 lbs: 'Alexander Magnus & Rodri Montoya' SOVEREIGNTY!"

Brandon: "Sovereignty consists of Alexander Magnus and, making his ICW debut, "The Malaga's Kong" Rodri Montoya. Montoya dropped a career in basketball to be trained by WALTER & Ringkampf alongside Alexander Magnus."

Hannah: "If you've seen the WFA Supernovas, then you know just how brutal and effective Rodri is. And with a partner such as Magnus, they could possibly be an unstoppable force in the tag team division!"

While Montoya and Magnus stand there posing, Mateo, Freddy, and Detrick attack them from behind! Mateo stomps down on Magnus while Freddy & Detrick kick Rodri to the floor! The referee pulls the three of them away and yells at Mateo to get out of the ring. While he does so, Freddy and Detrick grab Rodri and they slam him into the steel steps!

Hannah: "A jumpstart by La Familia catches Sovereignty off-guard!"

Brandon: "They were not looking to wait around! Freddy & Detrick want revenge!"

Detrick rolls back in as Freddy gets on the apron. The bell finally rings as Detrick waits for Alexander to get up. Magnus gets in the corner, and Cyrus hits the Corner Springboard Spinning Back Kick! Magnus stumbled forward into a Dos Santos (Northern Lights Suplex floated over into a Sitout Suplex Powerbomb)! Cyrus makes the cover.

1...2 KICKOUT!

Hannah: "A close 2-count by 'The Lucha Warrior!'"

Brandon: "La Familia is looking to end things quickly!"

Detrick tags his brother. The two whip Magnus to the ropes, and they connect with a Double Spanish Fly! Mateo rallies them to keep up the assault! Detrick rolls out as Freddy picks Magnus up. He attempts to end things early by going for the Prince's Crown (Stormbreaker/Double Underhook Overhead Gutwrench dropped into a modified Corkscrew Neckbreaker)! But when Freddy lifts him on his shoulders, Magnus breaks free and rolls out of the ring! He and a recovering Montoya look on at Freddy, who's taunting them with their own pose. Magnus and Rodri whisper something to each other. Alexander steps back in the ring and tags Rodri in. Montoya steps over the ropes, but Freddy immediately kicks him in his legs! Rodri shoves Freddy across the ring, but Freddy rolls back to his feet! "The Prince" wouldn't back down & charges….right into a Pop-Up European Uppercut to the jaw! Freddy clutches his mouth as Rodri runs & boots Detrick, sending him flying into the barricade! Escobar stumbles up, and Rodri kicks him into the corner! Montoya then chokes Freddy in the corner until the referee counts to four. Rodri frees him and argues with the ref. With the ref's back turn, Magnus chokes Freddy as well!

Brandon: "Magnus is taking advantage of a distracted ref to wear down Freddy even more!"

The crowd immediately started booing, and Mateo wasn't happy either. Magnus lets him go right before the referee turns around. Freddy slumps down coughing and wheezing, but Rodri lifts him back against the corner. He spreads his arms, exposing his chest….and Backhand Chops him so hard, it sounded like a gunshot!

Hannah: "MY WORD that was a loud and brutal chop!"

Everyone gasps and "OOHHs" as Escobar collapses against Rodri's body. He pushes him back and Backhand Chops him again and again and again! Escobar could barely stand at this point! Rodri tags in his partner, and they Irish Whip him across the ring. Rodri whips Alexander to Freddy, who collides with a Flying European Uppercut. Freddy stumbles right into an Exploder Suplex! Magnus makes the cover.

1...2..KICKOUT!

As soon as Freddy kicks out, Alexander grabs his arm and applies the Shankly Gates!

Hannah: "Freddy somehow kicks out, but he is caught within Alexander's Shankly Gates!"

Brandon: "Freddy's arm could be in serious trouble if he doesn't find a way out!"

Freddy yells in agony and shakes his head while Alexander yells "SUBMIT, ESCOBAR!" Mateo slams his hands over the apron as the crowd claps along, trying to motivate Freddy to fight back! Freddy felt his arm and shoulder bent in horrible ways, but he did not submit! When Detrick climbed back on the apron, Alexander immediately knocked him down with a Forearm to the face! Mateo grew annoyed and got on the apron! He yells at Magnus in Spanish, who raised his fists at him! The referee separated the two and told Mateo to get back down. Magnus went to pick Freddy up. But Escobar pops up and hits the Royal Sword (Bicycle Knee)!

Hannah: "A desperate Bicycle Knee rocks Magnus and gives him a chance to make a tag!"

Both men are down, and the crowd is rallying for Freddy to get up first! Detrick slowly climbs back on the apron, and Rodri tries to knock him back down! But Cyrus learned from the last time and draped the ropes, sending Montoya out of the ring! Freddy crawls to Cyrus, but Magnus grabs his foot! Alexander gets up and pulls Freddy into a German Suplex attempt. But Freddy lands on his feet and hits a Running Blockbuster! Cyrus, Mateo, and the crowd rallies for Escobar...who finally makes the tag! When Magnus gets up, Detrick Springboards and hits a Spinning European Uppercut! He then kicks up and hits a Standing Shooting Star Press! Cyrus rolls to the corner, leaps directly to the top rope, and hits a smooth Moonsault! Detrick covers!

1...2 BREAK-UP!

Montoya drags him out and kicks him in the face! Cyrus immediately collapses as the crowd boos!

Brandon: "Detrick was full of spirit, but that one kick by Montoya knocked it all out of him and saved the match for Sovereignty!"

He rolls Detrick back in and gets back on the apron. Magnus crawls over and tags Rodri in as Detrick pulls himself against the corner! Rodri charges, but Detrick sidesteps and Freddy connects with an Enziguri! Montoya is stunned against the ropes! Detrick rolls over his back and grabs Rodri's waist, bounces his legs off the ropes, lands on his feet, and hits a Deadlift German Suplex! The crowd pops HARD and breaks out a "DE-TRICK" chant! He crawls over and tags in Freddy! They call for Greetings from the Streets (Superkick/Trouble in Paradise Combo), but Magnus runs in and Uppercuts Detrick through the ropes and to the floor! Freddy, seeing this, eats a MASSIVE Chop from Rodri, turning him inside out! Montoya grabs his head and immediately applies Kong's Wrath (Hammerlock Guillotine Choke)!

Hannah: "Kong's Wrath has been applied!"

Brandon: "The match can end right here!"

On the floor, Magnus was stomping down on Detrick...until Mateo tried to push him away! Magnus turns around and stares at Guerrero..before pushing him back! The two traded insults and kept on pushing each other! Rodri sees this happening and lets Freddy go! He rolls out of the ring and ATTACKS Mateo from behind! Sovereignty then starts ganging up on Mateo, stomping and punching...until Detrick runs up the top rope and dives onto both men with the Falling Star (Swanton Bomb)! Cyrus checks on his cousin as Sovereignty retreats back in the ring! Mateo and Detrick ran in..and they all began to brawl! The crowd cheers as The referee was losing control of this match! He then calls for the bell as Freddy got back up and began fighting!

"This match has been ruled a NO CONTEST!"

Hannah: "Everything is starting to break down, ladies & gentlemen! Mateo, Freddy, and Detrick are going to war against Rodri & Alexander!"

Brandon: "Exactly right! Things are getting extremely heated!"

Freddy and Detrick ganged up on Rodri while Mateo and Magnus traded fists! Montoya suddenly shoves the brothers back and knocks them down with the Double Clothesline! At the same time, Magnus stuns Guerrero with a stiff Headbutt! Mateo is stunned, and Magnus Uppercuts him repeatedly! Everyone boos as Magnus applies a Rear Naked Choke and Rodri chops him in the chest! But then the boos turn into loud cheers when the Wayne Bros runs in and hits a Double Springboard Dropkick to Rodri!

Hannah: "The tag team champions have arrived to aid La Familia!"

Brandon: "They also are looking for some revenge for being attacked by Sovereignty as well!"

Alexander shoves Mateo aside and charges after them. But they tag champions both hit a Double Leap Frog! Devin Backflips and grabs Magnus with his legs while Derrick charges and hits a Single Leg Dropkick, knocking him out of the ring! Rodri is back up, and he grabs them by their necks! He tries a Double Chokeslam, but they break free from his grip and kick the back of his knees! Montoya collapses to his knees, and Freddy & Detrick run up and hit a Double Step Up Enziguri to knock him out! La Familia drags Rodri up and tosses him over the ropes, with the Waynes draping them! Sovereignty quickly retreats as Freddy & Detrick stood tall alongside the tag champs! They then went over to help Mateo, who was coughing and trying to breath while Sovereignty bitterly watched on. Mateo is helped up by his cousins, and he stares right at the tag champions, who continues to pander to the crowd!

Hannah: "An intense match which ends in chaos!"

Brandon: "Safe to assume that this is not over between any of them!"

Hannah: "Agreed. Coming up next, my colleague here will conduct a live interview with CJ Hawk about Katashi Suzuki and what went down last week!"

The screen cuts to Nyx Rosewood sitting alone in a dark room. She looked down at the floor, taking deep breaths. She lifts her head up...and a sudden image of the Mad Angel's face appears! But it disappears a second later as Nyx starts to talk.

Nyx: "You just don't know when to leave me alone, do you Traci?" She says angrily. "You are that desperate to see the Mad Angel just so you can take control of her. That will never happen, Traci, and here's why: because no one can control it. Not you...and not even me. So consider this your last warning, Star: quit. Quit while you can. Because the moment I see your creepy face again, I will hurt you. And if you keep testing my patience...if you keep trying to push me further….then I promise you that you will face the Mad Angel once again…. and she will end your existence for good!

Another quick flash of the Mad Angel appears smiling before the screen goes to black.

The screen cuts back to the ring, where Brandon was standing.

Brandon: "Ladies & gentlemen, please welcome my guest at this time: CJ HAWK!"

Breaking Through (by the Wreckage) starts to play, and the arena pops HARD! The lights go off for a bit. When the chorus hits, CJ appears under a spotlight. He raises his arms to the air, then points to the camera. Everyone yells "BANG!" as the lights cut back on, now blue. CJ calmly walks to the ring while everyone chants his name! CJ high fives a few fans before entering the ring. He slowly raises his arms again, everyone going "OOOHHHH" then points to the camera, everyone yelling "BANG!" CJ then stands next to Brandon.

Brandon: "Last week, we saw you compete against the debuting Sebastian Flair. But even though you were victorious, the moment everyone talks about happened after the match with the arrival of Katashi Suzuki, who proceeded to attack you. Can you describe your initial feelings and thoughts from the moment he arrived?"

CJ: He takes a moment to think. "Honestly? I was surprised. Seeing him here in ICW...it caught me off guard. More than long enough for him to knock me out and drop me on my head." He couldn't help but chuckle. "But the more I think about it, the more I realize how unsurprising it really was. Because Katashi Suzuki was bred & trained to do what he did." He turns to the crowd. "The name 'Suzuki' should sound familiar to anyone who follows Japanese wrestling. Because Katashi is the nephew..and student...of the King, the Demon of Japanese Wrestling, Minoru Suzuki. That name alone should tell you what Katashi is capable of: he is just as twisted and sadistic as his uncle. He will hurt anyone, man or woman, and laugh about it. He isn't in this business solely to win championships, but to willingly cause pain and suffering to anybody he feels like. He shatter bones, snap bodies in half, make grown men beg for mercy, and flat out break everyone's spirit. And that last part is what he tried to do to me last week."

CJ: He asks Brandon to hand him the mic, which he does. CJ looks dead into the camera. "But that's not how this is gonna work, Katashi. My spirit's not so easily broken, and your mind games aren't going to work on me! So why don't we skip all of the formalities, you come down to this ring, and we settle this right here and now!"

The crowd cheers as CJ tosses the mic aside. But instead of music playing, the screen cuts to a dimly lit room with banners reading "Fui Za Faia" & "Suzuki-Gun." Katashi Suzuki is sitting on a leather chair in the middle of the place. He is wearing black "Fui Za Faia" t-shirt, grey jacket, grey pants, and white shoes.

Katashi: He couldn't help but give a sadistic grin. "CJ Hawk….." He says calmly with a thick Japanese accent. "It's been years...since I saw you." Suzuki sits up straight. "You've changed. You are not...your true self. You are lying to everyone...but not me." Katashi unfolds his legs and leans forward. "I know what you are." He chuckles. "Anata wa nejireta rokudenashi desu. Watashi to onajiyōni. Soon….I'll make you realize it, too." He smiled a sinister grin that felt directly aimed at CJ.

CJ watches Katashi get up and leave through the door behind him. When the door closes, the throne goes black. A "Fui Za Faia" logo then appears. CJ stands there, shaking his head as the screen cuts off."

The cameras cut to Mark Jacobs walking backstage. He makes his way towards the exit but stops and chuckles. A nervous looking Even & a pissed off Alexis was blocking the exit.

Mark: "Well look who's here to greet me personally." He walks up to them with a cocky smirk on his face.

Evan: "Hello, Mr. Jacobs. We understand you had some….choice words about how things are here. And we would like to clarify-"

Alexis: "¡Cállate la boca!" She says to Evan. Alexis turns to Mark. "I'm here to set some things straight, Jacobs." She stares directly into his soul. "First of all, be grateful to whatever God you worship that I even allowed you here after the stunt you pulled last week and tonight. But more importantly, you better get it through your head that I run this shit." She starts poking Mark in the chest. "You ain't Sullivan and I ain't Trell. You don't get to demand anything unless I allow it! Be lucky that I even LET you talk about the Heavyweight Title!"

Mark: He put his hands up in self defense, but still kept his cocky attitude. "Well excuse me, princess, for being the reality that slaps you in the face. It's like I said out there: I'm here for just one thing, and you already know what that is: that Heavyweight Title. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't care what other business you have going on or how you plan to run things. When I see something I want, I take it. And I'm not gonna waste my time waiting around for you to get his head out of your ass and understand that you're looking at the best damn thing to ever happen to that Heavyweight Title in a LONG time! So save yourself the trouble you're gonna have with me, and one of you make it happen already."

Alexis: Espinoza steps right back to his face. "First of all, I'm not a princess. I'm the Queen of the South, perro. And I dare you to demand one more shit from me, because I'll make sure you choke on your own testicles while I rip out your tongue and personally bash it into your skull."

Bitter tension filled the room as Jacobs and Espinoza stared down. Evan then quickly stepped in between them to break the atmosphere.

Neal: "Now now, you two. There's no need to act hostile. Let's all be civil and professional about this. Mr. Jacobs, I appreciate you taking initiative in your goals and desires. But what myself and Ms. Espinoza feel is that you haven't earned that right to fightbfor a championship just yet. With that said, ICW prides itself on letting talents such as yourself prove themselves. Which is why we would like for you-"

Alexis: "I'M not asking anything! You're GOING to compete. And since you feel that you're hot shit, prove it against the Heavyweight Champion himself. But know this: one wrong move, one attempt to step outta line, and as soon as you get your ass handed to you by Will, you can forget about wanting anything, because you'll be lucky to even find work here!"

Mark: He smiles. "Was that so hard, sweet cheeks? You might actually be cut out to play business woman. But here's a bit of inside news: I'm going to kick your champion's ass. And after that, I'm going to take his title. And I can't wait to see the look on your face when you realize there's nothing you can do about it. See you next week."

Mark turns to the exit, but he sees Evan standing there with a smile and his hand sticking out. Mark chuckles before shoving Neal to the floor with one hand and walking out of the door. The screen goes black.

The screen cuts back to the arena...then shows The Misfits sitting front row in the crowd! Kirsi was enjoying an extra large fountain drink, Alexandra sat perfectly still and ready to take notes on the match, and Daria….kicked her feet up and ate popcorn. The ICW Women's Title was placed around her neck as well.

Aggressive (by Beartooth) started to play. Kailene comes out wearing a white short sleeveless leather vest with the hood up, and a black broken star design in the middle of the back of the jacket, and she gets on one knee. When the song goes into the chorus, her pyro erupts and she tosses it back and reveals her new look: dirty blonde hair that's shoulder length and shaggy with purple and blue streaks, green eyes, tan skin, and small scars. She was wearing a white female wrestling top (Alexa Bliss 2016 style) with white wrestling tights & a black studded belt around it with galaxy-esque designs on both pant legs, white wrist tape on both arms, and a black elbow pad on the left arm. Kailene high fives a few fans, as well as the Misfits, and poses on the top turnbuckle! Kirisi cheers loudly while Daria claps.

"The following contest is a Triple Threat Match, and the winner will be the #1 Contender's Match for the ICW Women's Championship! Introducing first, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: 'The Supernova' KAILENE STARR!"

Brandon: "What a way for Kailene to bounce back after a tough loss at Immortality 2: by challenging for the ICW Women's Championship!"

Hannah: "Daria admitted she owes Kailene a chance after helping her free her friends from darkness in season 2. This match could be what "The Supernova" needs to show her true potential!"

As Kailene stands in a corner, you should see me in a crown (by Billie Eilish) suddenly plays. The song pauses for a moment, then red, white and blue pyro erupts from the stage, heralding Angelica's arrival. Everyone starts booing as she poses on stage with her arms spread. Kailene watches as Angelica makes her way to the ring. Kirsi was booing LOUDLY while Daria smiles and waves, already irritating Angelica. Nonetheless, she steps in the ring and poses in the middle with her arms out.

"Introducing her opponent, from Marietta, Georgia: 'The American Princess' ANGELICA RHODES!"

Hannah: "You can see on her face that Angelica is still bitter about losing the women's championship to Daria. In her mind, she feels she is owed a rematch!"

Brandon: "Ironically enough, Daria actually CHALLENGED Angelica to prove she deserves a shot by competing in this triple threat! Is 'The American Princess' over her head? Or will this be the first step in getting her title back?"

While Kailene and Angelica stared daggers at each other, Heaven Knows (by The Pretty Reckless) started to play. Pillars of fire explode from the stage as Nattie appears with a bitter expression. Despite this, the crowd cheers for her as she walks to the ring. But those cheers IMMEDIATELY turn to boos when DJ Kingston walks out behind her, a smile on his face!

Hannah: "It appears that Natalia will not be coming alone! DJ Kingston has decided to accompany her to the ring in this important matchup!"

Brandon: "It's safe to say he might play a role to assist Natalia in securing a win!"

Natalia turns to see DJ clapping his hand and walking up to her. He wraps an arm around her neck, yelling "This is the next women's champion!" Natalia looks slightly uncomfortable as DJ parades her around the ring. He even walked up to the Misfits and yelled "She's taking that title from you, Daria!" In response, Daria & Kirsi threw popcorn in his face! Everyone laughed except for Natalia. Even the cold Alexandra let out a chuckle. As DJ backs away, wiping the popcorn off of him, Natalia climbs on the apron. She teases flipping over the ropes before scoffing and getting inside. She stood calmly in a corner, glaring at Kailene and Angelica.

"And their opponent, accompanied to the ring by DJ Kingston, representing Monarchy, from El Paso, Texas: 'La Chica Fuego' NATALIA RODRIGUEZ!"

Brandon: "For all of the whispers around old friendships, her alliance with Monarchy, Jason Sabre, & DJ Kingston, Natalia is laser focused on trying to win this match! She wants nothing more than to finally capture the Women's Title! Nothing is more important to her than that!"

Hannah: "Who will be victorious? Will it be Kailene's power, Angelica's in-ring IQ, or Natalia's athleticism? Who will challenge Daria St. Leger for the ICW Women's Title? We're about to find out right now!"

The bell rings...and Angelica immediately attacks Kailene! The two of them punched each other while Natalia watched. Kailene then stuns Angelica with several blows to the jaw followed by a German Suplex! Angelica stumbles to the ropes as Kailene charges & clotheslines her out of the ring! With Angelica out of the way,, Kailene then turns to Natalia, who still looked bitter and angry. But the Supernova gives her a smile and offers her a handshake. The crowd comes alive and chants "SHAKE HER HAND! SHAKE HER HAND!" DJ, meanwhile, tells Natalia to "Ignore them! Punch her!" Natalia calmly walks up to her and stares at the hand. She raises her own….and SMACKS Kailene in the face! The crowd boos as the "Supernova" is stunned! But before she realizes, Natalia rolls her up!

1...2 KICKOUT!

Brandon: "There's no friendship with so much at stake! Kailene's compassion almost cost her!"

Kailene kicks out, but is still stunned from the slap. Natalia waits for her to get up, and when Kailene does, Nattie goes for the kill using her Flame Cutter (Handspring Cutter)! But after the Handspring, Kailene grabs her out of midair by her waist! She performs another German Suplex...only for Natalia to flip and land on her feet! When Kailene gets up, Natalia attempts a Snap Frankensteiner! Unfortunately for her, the power of "The Supernova" was shown when Kailene catches her! She then lifts her up for a Powerbomb attempt, but "The American Princess" slides back in and kicks Kailene in the stomach! This causes her to let Nattie go, who then connects with a Step Up Enziguri! A stunned Kailene then stumbles right into a Side Suplex from Angelica, knocking her out of the ring! With Starr laid out, Angelica gives Natalia a hug and raises her arm. "She's my best friend!" She yells causing DJ to clap. Angelica then points to Kailene and tells Nattie "Let's team up against her." Nattie seemingly agrees, but when Angelica turns around, she hits a sudden Firecracker (Backstabber)!

Hannah: "Natalia just stabbed Angelica in the back! She doesn't want friends, only to win!"

The crowd pops for Natalia attacking Angelica! Rodriguez grabs her by her hair and pulls her to a corner. She then SMASHES Angelica's face against it repeatedly! Nattie then turns her around and forearms her in the face! She runs to the opposite corner, gaining speed, and charges at Angelica, hitting the John WOOO Corner Dropkick! Natalia gets up and hits a second Dropkick! She runs back and attempts a third! But Kailene, from out of nowhere, hits the Pounce and sends her flying across the ring!Parts of the crowd started to turn on her as she shook her friend at her ex-friend.

Brandon: "Kailene is starting to realize that this is not the time nor place to try and be friends with Natalia!"

Hannah: "It's obvious she still cares about her, but winning a chance at a championship is just as important as well!

With Angelica slumped down, Kailene lifts Natalia against the ropes and chops her HARD in the chest! "I really didn't wanna hurt you." She says delivering another chop. "But you're making this hard on yourself!" She then chops her a third time and whips her across the ring. Natalia ducks a Clothesline and goes for a Springboard Moonsault! But Kailene catches her out of the air! Kailene then hits the Fallaway Slam which sends Natalia sliding out of the ring! She gets up... and Angelica connects with a Shotgun Dropkick! Angelica stumbles a bit but drags Kailene back up. She hooks her arm and hits the Swinging Vertical Suplex! Angelica covers her!

1….2 BREAK-UP!

Natalia yanks Angelica out of the ring and SMASHES her into the barricade with force! She scurries onto the apron and attempts the Springboard 450! But Kailene rolls away as Natalia rolls to her feet! She runs the ropes and charges, attempting a Tornado DDT! But Kailene holds her for a bit before pushing her in the air and watching Nattie crash down hard! Natalia grabs her chest and stomach in pain while Kailene looks on with concern. But that didn't last because Angelica gets on the apron and grabs her by the hair! She screams, but breaks Angelica's grip and Forearms her hard in the face! With "The American Princess" stunned, Kailene attempts a Vertical Suplex over the ropes. But Angelica fights back, and SHE tries to Vertical Suplex her to the floor! Kailene fights back, and the two teeters back and forth all trying to lift one another! Suddenly, Natalia rushes over & flips over both women, hitting a Sunset Flip Powerbomb to Angelica who Vertical Suplexes Kailene to the floor!

Brandon: "OH MY GOD!"

Hannah: "WHAT A SUNSET FLIP VERTICAL SUPLEX! ALL THREE ARE OUT COLD!"

All three women were out on the floor as the crowd chanted "I-C-W! I-C-W!" Kirsi was chanting along with them as Daria & Alexandra watched on with curiosity. DJ, on the other hand, was yelling for Natalia to get back up! Nattie does so, but she instead grabs Kailene and runs down ringside. She then SMASHES her back into the barricade, knocking her over! Natalia picks her back up and runs down the other way, sending her crashing directly in front of Daria! Kailene withers in pain as Natalia drags her back up. She whips her for a third time hard into the barricade….then stares directly at Daria. The Women's Champion doesn't budge, but smiles and waves at Nattie. Nattie looks bitterly at her...until Angelica runs up and BLASTS Natalia with a kick to the face! The crowd immediately boos, as well as Kirsi & Daria! Kirsi throws popcorn at her, but Angelica focuses on Natalia. She grabs her by the hair and bashes her face against the apron! After rolling Rodriguez back in the ring, Angelica proceeds to stomp down on her over and over again while yelling "You should've worked with me! This is all on you, Nattie!" The crowd keeps booing Angelica as she continues the beatdown! "The American Princess" then picks Nattie up and throws her between the turnbuckles into the ring apron. Natalia stays there as DJ gets on the apron and yells at Angelica. "What are you doing!?" He says. "You're supposed to help her win, not attack her! What the hell is wrong with you!?" In response, Angelica walks over and SLAPS him across the face!

Hannah: "Angelica isn't here to play any games! She wants revenge against Daria, and she will do whatever it takes to get that opportunity!"

The slap knocks DJ to the floor as parts of the crowd cheers! Angelica flicks her hair and turns back to Natalia. She drags her up and attempts a Brainbuster! But Natalia recovered enough to knee Angelica in the face! Natalia then lands behind her and connects with the Poison Rana! Angelica bounces off her head and stumbles to her feet. Natalia then runs over and connects with a Leg Trapped Sunset Flip Powerbomb! The referee goes for the cover…

Until Kailene runs in and BOOTS Natalia in the face! "The Supernova" appeared furious! She first grabs Angelica and connects with a Pumphandle Suplex to the Rhodes daughter! Angelica flies to the corner as Kailene throws Natalia with another Pumphandle Suplex! Nattie & Angelica were both against the same corner as Kailene charges at them. She connects on the running Splash! Angelica collapses and Natalia stumbles forward! Kailene pops her up in the air and connects on a Spinning Powerbomb! Kailene holds Natalia's legs, and the ref makes the count!

1….2….KICKOUT!

The crowd pops for Natalia, but Kailene immediately transitions into a Boston Crab!

Brandon: "This could be it! Will Natalia tap out to her former best friend!?"

Natalia lays there screaming from the submission! The crowd even chants "PLEASE DON'T TAP! PLEASE DON'T TAP!" DJ is panicking on the floor, holding the ropes and yelling at Natalia "Crawl to me! Come on! Crawl, woman!" Angelica suddenly rolls in the ring and kicks Natalia in the face! But all it did was piss Kailene off! She just looks at Angelica while keeping the hold on Natalia! Angelica punches her, and Kailene screams at her in response! So "The American Princess" decides to SLAP Kailene! "The Supernova" immediately lets Nattie go and grabs Angelica by her throat! She proceeds to push her against the corner and choke the air out of her lungs! Kailene then punches her in the gut & face! The referee tries to pull Kailene away, but she shoves him and keeps beating Angelica! Natalia gets up and runs to Kailene...only to get caught and be hit with an Exploder Suplex into Angelica in the corner! Angelica falls out of the ring as Natalia lays unconscious! Kailene picks her back up and lifts her to the top turnbuckle. After throwing a couple of punches, Kailene climbs up and attempts a Superplex! But DJ runs over and grabs Nattie's leg to keep her in place!

Hannah: "DJ is playing interference once again! He is desperate for Natalia to succeed for Monarchy!"

Kailene tries to lift her, but she wouldn't budge! Kailene finally sees DJ interfering, so she climbs down, grabs him by his shirt, and knocks him back to the floor! As the crowd chants "YOU DESERVED IT" to Kingston, Kailene goes back to climb back up. She hooks her arm and lifts her high in the air! She holds Natalia up there for ten long seconds before crashing down with a Powerful Delayed Superplex! But seconds after Kailene and Nattie were laid out, Angelica comes flying in and hits Kailene with a High Angle Diving Moonsault!

All three women were laid out in the ring! "THIS IS AWESOME!" "ICW!" chants filled the entire arena! All three women slowly crawl to their knees...and Kailene punches Angelica first! Natalia then punches Kailene, and Angelica punches Kailene as well! Natalia then punches Angelica, who then punches her back! Kailene punches Natalia and then Angelica! She went back and forth, knocking back the two! But Nattie & Angelica hit her with Double Superkicks! She stumbles off the ropes and connects with a Spear to both of them! Kailene pulls herself up, breathing heavily and full of rage! She drags Natalia to her knees and runs the ropes! However, DJ grabs Kailene by her feet and trips her!

Hannah: "Once again, DJ interferes in this match!"

Brandon: "How long will this go on?!"

The crowd booed HEAVILY as Kingston tried to play innocent! But the referee finally had enough! He yells at Kingston "I've had enough of you and your actions!" He then points to DJ "You! Are! OUTTA HERE!" He says pointing to the back! The entire arena pops HARD as DJ is throwing a HUGE tantrum! He starts arguing with the referee, who makes DJ back up the ramp! But as DJ backs up the ramp….Jason Sabre comes FLYING in and hits the Final Blow (RKO) from nowhere! EVERYONe went ballistic and chanted "JA-SON SA-BRE!" "The Ace of Pro Wrestling" looks down at DJ then back at Natalia, who watched on. "You got this." he says with a wink before dragging DJ away.

Hannah: "Jason Sabre, with the Final Blow, is dragging DJ away from this match!"

Brandon: "And Natalia doesn't know how to respond with this!"

Natalia stood there looking conflicted. She did not know what to think or how to feel about what she saw. Sadly, she failed to see Angelica bouncing off the ropes until she was hit with the Beautiful Disaster Kick, knocking her out! The crowd immediately went back to booing! Natalia crumbles out as Kailene charges after Angelica! She attempts a Clothesline, but Angelica ducks it and hooks her arms from behind! She lifts her back to her own back and plants the Gory Bomb! Kailene is ROCKED! She tries to stumble up, but Angelica simply bounces off the ropes and connects with another Beautiful Disaster Kick! She pulls Kailene up and calls for the Cross Rhodes! But she points to Daria and tells her "This is your future!" But as she spins Kailene, "The Supernova" counters directly into her submission: the Draco's Fangs (Dragon Sleeper)! Angelica waves her arms everywhere, trying to escape, but Kailene falls back and wraps her legs around her waist! Angelica was trapped, and she began to fade….and Natalia HITS THE TTE (Frog Splash) ONTO EVERYONE!

Hannah: "WHAT A FROG SPLASH FROM NOWHERE!"

The crowd went INSANE! Angelica is out cold and rolls to the floor! Kailene is barely conscious! Kailene, clutching her stomach and coughing, barely pulls herself to her feet! But Natalia had enough left in her to run the ropes and drop her with the Flame Cutter (Handspring Cutter)! Natalia hooks both legs as the ref makes the count!

1…..

2….

3!

"Here is your winner: NATALIA RODRIGUEZ!"

Hannah: "SHE HAS DONE IT! NATALIA RODRIGUEZ IS THE #1 CONTENDER!"

Brandon: "What a match! Natalia has proven that nothing will keep her from the chance at the Women's Title!"

The crowd pops HUGE for Natalia, who sat up and looked down at Kailene! She then stumbles up, leaning against the ropes, and looks at Daria! She climbs up the top rope, looking down at the women's champion. Daria, with a smirk, just stares at Nattie and claps for her.

Brandon: "So the stage is set: Daria St. Leger will defend the ICW Women's Championship against Natalia Rodriguez!"

Hannah: "It'll be interesting to see how Monarchy & the Misfits respond, as well as where Kailene and Angelica go from here! But until then, I have been Hannah Eberhart!"

Brandon: "I've been Brandon Andrews!"

Hannah: "And we'll see you all next time!"
