Live from the sold-out Ford Idaho Center in Nampa, Idaho
Thursday Night June 10th 2021
8:00pm EST
[ The shows opens with the Titantron showing the Empires new promo video package with all the new stars of the Empire like Alexander Stone, the Lynch Mob, the Zombie Bride Su Yim and many, many more with their high risk, high impact moves to the music of "Till I Collapse" by Eminem blasting across the arena in unison with the pyrotechnics lighting the place up. The entire arena erupts in a chorus of cheers as the show comes on air. The music and pyro's stop as the cameras fade down to our broadcast table as Mike Godwinn and “The Living Legend” Pezzer are standing by. ]
Mike Godwinn - Good evening folks and welcome to another amazing night of action right here in the World Wrestling Empire!! I am Mike Godwinn and I am joined by my broadcast colleague, and self-proclaimed Living Legend… Pezzer.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Evening everyone. Sit back and settle in for what should be a huge night right here on Afterburn!!!
Mike Godwinn – And we are start things off with the Cartel already in the ring. Let’s listen in as Holidead has a mic.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – This should be good.
[ The cameras pan back to the ring as Los Vipers, Holidead and Mil Muertes are standing in the ring all smiles as boos from the sold-out crowd ring down around them. ]
Holidead – You can boo us all you want, but what remains a fact is that the Cartel is the most dominant stable in the Empire today!!! The Devils Rejects have nothing on us!!! The Triad is a joke!!! Even the Gold Standard can’t match us!!! We are the best in the game today and we are led by the greatest Mexican wrestler of all time!!!
[ The crowd’s boos get even louder seemingly knowing where this is going. ]
Holidead – Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, people watching around the world… I give to you… the greatest Mexican Heavyweight Champion of all time… “Relentless” Tito Escobar!!!
[ The crowd erupts in a chorus of boos as “8 Mile” by Eminem erupts across the arena and the United States Heavyweight Champion Tito Escobar struts out all cocky with his Mexican Heavyweight championship around his waist. ]
Mike Godwinn – He’s one cocky son of a bitch, isn’t he?
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Like him or hate him he certainly walks the walk and talks the talk. He’s been the United States Champion for what, four months now?
[ Tito climbs into the ring as his Cartel members clap and cheer him on sucking up to him. Tito kisses Holidead and she hands him her microphone. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Thank you all for all your cheers and adjuration. Please know that I love you all!!!
[ The fans show their love by booing the shit out of him, but he pays no attention to them living in his own delusional world. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – I have been your Mexican Heavyweight champion for four months and I couldn’t have done it without my loyal friends Los Vipers and the love of my life Holidead!!!
[ The crowd boos as Holidead, Mil Muertes and Los Vipers pose for the crowd. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – For four months I have proven myself time and again that I am the best champion here in the Empire!!! While others like Alexander Stone and Chandler Hopkins couldn’t keep their titles, I have left a pile of bodies behind me!!! Funny Bones, STIXX, Tiger King, Joey Ryan twice, Kahagas twice, Boris Drago twice and finally Caristico twice!!! All left lying at my feet while I remain the greatest Mexican Heavyweight Champion of all time!!!
[ Los Vipers, Mil Muertes and Holidead clap and cheer him on agreeing with everything he is saying. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – At Civil War, I put the icing on the cake when I not only beat Caristico for the second time, but I ended his illustrious career in-front of his family and friends!!!
[ The boos within the arena are deafening. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – We will all miss Caristico (he states sarcastically), but if you can’t hang with the big boys; then step aside and let those that can take their rightful place!!! Men and women like Los Vipers!!! Holidead!!! And the newest member of my Cartel… Mil Muertes!!!
[ The crowd continues their boos as the entire Cartel pose in the ring. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – After my match against Caristico, I debated retiring this belt!!! That looking at the current roster, there just isn’t anyone left worthy enough to challenge me for it!!! Alexander Stone and Chandler Hopkins? They couldn’t even keep their own belts so why should I give them a shot at mine!!! Kahagas? Like I said, been there and beat his ass twice!!! Steve Scott? Boy it looks like your own house needs some work after what your former friend Fulton did to your ass amigo!!! There’s nobody!!! Nobody is worthy enough to step inside this ring and face me!!! So, in saying that; maybe it’s time to set aside the Mexican Heavyweight title for good and set my sights on the biggest prize in the Empire… the World Heavyweight championship!!! If I could hold this title for so long, just imagine what I could do if I…
[ The sold-out crowd explodes to their feet as "Painkiller" by Judas Priest starts up and the lights go red and the Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge emerges as flames fire up down the ramp to the ring. ]
[ The crowd goes ape-shit as Tank storms down to the ring and climbs in showing no fear as the Cartel surrounds him like a pack of wild dogs. Tito smiles at Tank as JoJo Rodriguez hands Tank a mic. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Wait, wait, wait… should I call you Tank, Silverback or maybe Kong Arias? Which is it tonight old man?
[ Tank, ever serious just stares at Tito boring a hole right through him. ]
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – You and your group of second-rate idiots here can call me whatever you want, but at the end of the day know this champ… I’m taking that belt from you and I’m doing it at Red, White and Bruised!!!
[ Tito and the rest of the Cartel laughs at Tank. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Hold on a second old man, I don’t mean any disrespect; but I think that Hell in a Cell match that you had with Alexander Stone did some brain damage!!! Did I hear you correctly? That you’re challenging me to a title match at Red, White and Bruised? That you actually think that you’re worthy of a shot at this (and Tito shows off his Mexican Heavyweight title)?
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – I’m taking that belt from you, and there aint a damn thing you can do to stop me!!!
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Ok, ok relax. I can see the veins in your neck ready to explode. No need to get all jacked up here. I tell you what, Silverback; you want a shot at this?
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – You’re damn straight I do.
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Ok, I respect your determination. But looking at the rankings, the funny thing is; I don’t see your name anywhere.
[ Tito gets right in Tanks face. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – You’re not worthy!!!
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Worthy? I’ll show you fucking worthy!!!
[ Tank is ready to take on the entire Cartel as Mil Muertes steps between Tank and Tito. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – You know what Tank? I feel sorry for you. All the old timers like Go-D, Chris Simmons, Mike Thompson and yourself desperate to hold on to your pasts. Refusing to accept the fact that you’re old and that you’re past your prime!!! That you just don’t have what it takes anymore!!!
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – I’m going to fuck you up!!!
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Now there’s the old Tank we all loved back in the day when Mark fed you jobber after jobber. How exactly did you win so many titles Tank? I thought I heard that there was a bit of favoritism back in the day. You, DDP, Pezzer. All Marks boys, right amigo. But listen, I’m a generous champion so I’m going to do you a solid and give you a chance to prove yourself worthy of a title shot against me.
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Fine, name it.
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Let’s not get too excited amigo, because what I am going to offer you may just end your career for good.
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Just name it for Christ sakes!!
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Next week on Afterburn, you will have to defeat Los Vipers in a two on one match…
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Me against those two ass-clowns? Sign the contract!!!
[ Tito smiles. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Slow down friend. If you do beat them, the following week you have to face my new big man, Mil Muertes in singles action!!!
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – So all I have to do is beat all three of them to get a match against you at the pay per view?
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – That’s right. If you beat my men, I will give you a title shot at the pay per view. Deal?
[ Tito extends his hand and Tank just stares down at it before spitting into it.]
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Go fuck yourself!!!
[ Tank points at Los Vipers. ]
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – I’ll see you two pussies next week!!!
[ Tank storms out of the ring as Tito asks for a towel to wipe the spit off his hand. The cameras pan back to Mike and Pezzer ringside. ]
Mike Godwinn – What an amazing turn of events to start the show off Pezzer. Tito was just about to retire the United States Heavyweight title when Tank interrupted him and challenged him to a title match at our upcoming event in July aptly named Red, White and Bruised!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – One on one I give Tank a great shot at winning, but he’s gotta run the gauntlet of Los Vipers and then the big man Mil Muertes and I’m not sure if he’s got enough left in his tank to beat all of them. Tank just might have bitten off more than he expected.
Mike Godwinn – I for one can’t wait to see him back in action. He did a fantastic job at Civil War during the battle royal, even though he didn’t win the thing.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – He had a very impressive outing and his stablemate Go-D won the match so at the end of the day Legacy got what they set their sights on. I just wonder how long we have to wait until we see Go-D cash in his title shot.
Mike Godwinn – That’s a great question and I’m sure we will hear more from Go-D in the days and weeks leading up to the pay per view, but let’s talk about tonight’s card. At Civil War we saw the return of the big man Marc Fulton and we also saw him attack his tag team partner Steve Scott. I’m sure Steve has a ton of questions for Fulton and maybe he will get his answers tonight when Fulton is in singles action against Joey Ryan.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Man I would hate to be Joey Ryan tonight. The big man came back to the Empire pretty pissed off and this may just be his statement match.
Mike Godwinn – In another match we will see S.E.X. in action as they take on Exile. It was at Queen of the Ring that Exodus subbed in for Gabby Jetson and it didn’t sit well with Malia Hosaka. Hosaka took exception to Exodus entering the battle royal and when she told her to eliminate herself, they had a bit of a confrontation.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Malia is the leader of this group and she wants to be listened to. Exodus disrespected her and I’m sure there’s going to be hell to pay for that. Malia has been around for a long time and she’s not going to be shown up by these youngsters let alone one of her own kids.
Mike Godwinn – Staying within the Women’s division, we will have the pleasure of watching Solo Darling taking on Su Yim. It was Solo Darling that eliminated Su Yim at Queen of the Ring and you and I both know that she loved every minute of it.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – These two women have had issues with each other for over a month now and when Solo eliminated Su Yim, I am sure it just stoked the fire within Su Yim. I can’t wait to see these two women go at it tonight.
Mike Godwinn – In other women’s action, we will see Havok take on the hot Amber O’Neal.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Havok and Amber have been on two very opposite courses the last month. Havok has been dropping like a brick in the rankings while Amber has been slowly climbing up and is within reach of a title shot. Both women need this win tonight. It should be a great match.
Mike Godwinn – Turning to the men’s division, we will see the undefeated Travis Blake take on the big man STIXX. STIXX has rebounded nicely after starting off winless for weeks and tonight he faces a very quick Travis Blake. Should be a good match.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Travis Blake is a great talent and I give the staff all the kudos for going out there and signing guys like Travis Blake and Psycho Messiah. We need guys like them to build the foundation of the future of this company. The only thing with Travis is can he stay focused and keep his sights set on the gold or will this feud he has with the Triad and Boris Drago especially derail him.
Mike Godwinn – Great question. In other action folks, we have a huge main event where Kahagas takes on Chandler Hopkins. Hopkins had two great matches against the World Champion Prophet and Alexander Stone in back-to-back weeks where he defeated Prophet and nearly defeated Stone. He’s making a huge push to be the next top contender to the World Heavyweight title very soon.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – This Young Gun as he likes to call himself has shown that he can wrestle anyone. Tonight, that’s put to the test as he wrestles Kahagas in what should be another great match. Kahagas isn’t a pushover. He’s had some great high profile matches and is currently ranked at number five right behind Hopkins. Both men could really use this win tonight as they look ahead to an eventual world title match.
Mike Godwinn – Two great young talents Pezzer. What a main event this is going to be. But first, we kick things off with tag team action as the Koloff Dynasty take on your buddies in Legacy.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – My buddies? You don’t see me joining Legacy have you. Sure, we shared a car ride or two across country, but these guys still have that drive to win world titles. I’m pretty happy sitting right here just flapping my gums night after night. There’s less of a chance to get injured here Mikey.
Mike Godwinn – Let’s go to the ring and kick things off. JoJo, it’s all yours!!!
Legacy vs The Koloff Dynasty
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making their way to the ring first, accompanied by Boris Drago and weighing in at a combined weight of 472 lbs.; Neal and Aleksandre Koloff; they are the Koloff Dynasty!!

Mike Godwinn – The Koloff Dynasty led to the ring by the huge Russian Boris Drago come into this match ranked at number seven in a very crowded men’s tag team division with a record of oh, three and one and are desperate to get their first win here in the Empire.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I really don’t think that Boris Drago cares if the Koloff Dynasty ever wins. Drago brought them in to watch his back and be a force backstage. They set guys up and Drago takes them out.
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring, being accompanied by Go-D and weighing in at a combined weight of 467 lbs., “The Messiah” Chris Simmons and “Crazy Man” Mike Thompson, they are… Legacy!!!
[ “Unforgiven” by Creed rocks the arena as Empire Hall of Famers Go-D, Crazy Man and the Messiah walk out on stage to the roar of the sold-out crowd!!! As one, they march down to the ring and climb in never taking their eyes off the Triad. ]
Mike Godwinn – They call themselves Legacy Pezzer and they have the historical data to back it up.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Speaking of historical data Mike, let me just throw a number at you. Sixteen. That’s the number of titles these three guys have held in the Empire and that isn’t counting the twenty odd titles tank has won!!!

[ The videotron comes on as it shows Courtney Cox standing next to the Lynch Mob.]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Joey, Matt; we all watched at Civil War where the Chain Gang retained their World Tag Team titles when they lost their championship match by disqualification to the Guerrillas of Destiny when Salena struck Tanga Loa with one of the title belts. Your thoughts?
Joey Lynch – Here’s what I think. Sucks to be you Guerillas. Lose your straps to the Chain Gang, sucks to be you… lose your rematch, next team up!!!
Matt Lynch – You boys had your shot and you lost. Time to step aside and let the real number one contenders take those straps off those gang bangers!!!
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Is that a challenge for Red, White and Bruised?
[ The former World Tag Team Champions the Guerillas of Destiny storm onto the set. ]
Tanga Loa – What exactly makes the two of you farm boys think that you deserve to be the number one contender?
Tama Tonga – You two are nothen but a bunch of bitches!!! We beat your asses at Day of Reckoning and you aint done shit to deserve a title shot since then!!!
Matt Lynch – You boys want a fight, let’s do this right now!!!
Joey Lynch – We don’t need a ring. We’ll take you out back to the parking lot and whoop your asses!!!
[ A full-scale brawl breaks out backstage as security floods the area trying to break the two teams apart. The show swings back to Mike and Pezzer ringside. ]
Mike Godwinn – What an explosive situation we have backstage Pezzer.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – I can see both sides in this argument. The Guerillas didn’t lose at Civil War so why should they not be the number one contender, but yet they didn’t exactly beat the Chain Gang either so why can’t the Lynch Mob get their shot? I would hate to be Shane and DDP when they decide who’s going to face the Chain Gang at the pay per view!!!

Time of match: 0:12:36
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – The winner of this match, Havok!!!
Mike Godwinn – What a well-deserved win by Havok tonight and she needed it in a bad way to get back on track to challenge for a title shot.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – She’s got a long way to go to get back into title contention, but this sure as shit sets the ship right again.
Mike Godwinn – For Amber, it’s back to the drawing board as she drops yet another match and will most certainly drop in the rankings. Folks, let’s go to the back as Courtney Cox is standing by with Chandler Hopkins.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Courtney Cox standing next to Chandler Hopkins. ]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Chandler, the month of May ended pretty good for you as you defeated the World Heavyweight Champion Prophet and you took the former World Heavyweight Champion Alexander Stone to the limit losing to him in overtime.
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Yeah, May did get off to a bad start losing my TV title to Raven Horse, but I think that all my hard work paid off and at the end of the day I showed everyone in the back that I am a top contender in this company.
Courtney “Loves” Cox – You currently sit in the number four spot for the World Heavyweight title right behind Stone, Escobar, and the man that won the Civil War battle royal Go-D. That’s some pretty tough company you have surrounded yourself with.
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Anytime you break into the top five you’re sitting amongst some of the very best in any company and the Empire is no different. Go-D earned himself the number one spot by outlasting nineteen other men. Good for him. But what he also did was put a huge bullseye on his back. Everyone knows his history. Hell, there’s a page on the website dedicated just for guys like him!!! But he needs to know that this isn’t the same Empire he knew. This is our Empire!!! Guys like Stone, Escobar, myself and I hate to say it but Prophet too.
[ Just then, Go-D walks onto the set looking determined. ]
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Chandler, let me give you a bit of advice. The next time my name comes out of your mouth you better be man enough to say it to my face!!!
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – You think I’m afraid of you?
[ Go-D chuckles. ]
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Kid, I know you’ve got a big set of balls on you. I’ve seen your matches with Stone and Prophet. But let me educate you son… you’ve never been in a match with me!!!
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Fine, let’s do it then!!! Next week, right here on Afterburn; you and me in the main event!!!
[ Go-D smiles at Hopkins. ]
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Kid, you’ve got no idea what you just asked for!!! I’ll see you next week.
[ Go-D walks off the set as Hopkins just watches him walk away. The show swings back to Mike and Pezzer ringside. ]
Mike Godwinn – What a massive main event for next week Pezzer!!! Go-D will be in singles action for the first time in years here in the Empire as he takes on Chandler Hopkins!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – If Go-D is going to be taken seriously, then he’s going to have to beat some of the best guys in the Empire and Hopkins ranks right up there as one of the best. He can’t waste time playing around with the guys at the bottom of the rankings.
Mike Godwinn – Folks, at Civil War we all watched in awe as Marc Fulton returned to the Empire and entered into the battle royal. But nobody was more shocked than his own tag team partner Steve Scott who later in the night was attacked by Fulton and put through a table backstage.

Mike Godwinn – Joey Ryan has had a very interesting run here in the Empire since the federation reopened. He currently ranked at number five for the TV title with a two and nine record.

“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 318 lbs; this is… “The Madman” Marc Fulton!!!
[ The crowd boos as the very pissed off big man storms down to the ring and steps over the top rope to get into the ring. ]
Mike Godwinn – This is one huge man and he seems like he’s edgier than he was before he left with the injury. He’s angrier than he was.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Something is bothering him and call me silly but I think it’s got to do with Steve Scott.

“The Living Legend” Pezzer – The guy’s a powerhouse and there’s only a few guys on the roster than can match him power for power.
[ The crowd pops to their feet as Steve Scott and Bloody Mary walk out on stage. ]
[ Marc Fulton waits in the ring as Scott and Bloody Mary climb into the ring and JoJo hands him a mic. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – Marc… what the hell man?
[ Fulton doesn’t say anything. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – You’ve got nothing to say to me? To us?
[ Scott motions toward Bloody Mary who was also part of their team, but Fulton still says nothing. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – You drove me through a God damn table man? What the fuck was that about?
[ Fulton tries to walk past Scott, but Steve grabs the big man by the arm stopping him. ]

[ Fulton glares down at Scott’s hand, then he attacks and whips Scott into the ropes and decapitates him with a big boot to the face that knocks the shit out of Steve Scott!!! Fulton turns his attention toward Bloody Mary, but as he sees the fear in her eyes he backs off and steps over the top rope and leaves the ring as EMT’s rush into the ring to tend to Steve Scott. ]
Mike Godwinn – What the hell is going on between these two men? Fulton just took Scott’s head off with that big boot and he showed little or no remorse for it!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Whatever is bothering the big guy it’s all about the injury he suffered and his former tag team partner, that’s a given. I’m sure we are going to learn the exact facts as the weeks roll on.
Mike Godwinn – Pezzer, our next match has been heating up for weeks and it features Su Yim taking on Solo Darling.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Solo Darling has upped her game these past few months since aligning with Reverend Azazel and she has Su Yim in her crosshairs.

[ Some fans cheer and some boo as from the back, the Zombie Bride crawls out and down the rampway to the ringside area as “Undead Bride” sends chills down everyone’s spines. ]
Mike Godwinn – Su Yim comes into this match as the number three contender to the Women’s National title and with Amber O’Neal losing tonight it just might give Su Yim that extra added incentive to win tonight and move up the rankings.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – I don’t think Su Yim needs any extra incentive to get her hands on this little shit Solo Darling.
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And her opponent!! Making her way to the ring, being accompanied by her manager Reverend Azazel, she weighs in at 122 lbs., she is… Solo Darling!!!
[ The crowd erupts as “Feel the Sting” by Kenny & Harley Wootton rocks the arena and Christina walks out on stage with her manager Reverend Azazel. Together they make their way down to the ring where she climbs in with a serious and determined look on her face. ]
Mike Godwinn – Solo comes into this match ranked number six to the Women’s World title and with a win tonight she just might get closer to that elusive Women’s World title match she has been dying to have!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Unlike the men’s division, I think the top of the Women’s division is wide open. It’s Amber Nova, and then the rest of the roster. It’s Amber’s world and the rest of the roster is just renting space.

[ The crowd erupts in a chorus of boos as “8 Mile” by Eminem erupts across the arena and the United States Heavyweight Champion Tito Escobar struts out all cocky with his Mexican Heavyweight championship around his waist. ]
Mike Godwinn – He’s one cocky son of a bitch, isn’t he?
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Like him or hate him he certainly walks the walk and talks the talk. He’s been the United States Champion for what, four months now?
[ Tito climbs into the ring as his Cartel members clap and cheer him on sucking up to him. Tito kisses Holidead and she hands him her microphone. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Thank you all for all your cheers and adjuration. Please know that I love you all!!!
[ The fans show their love by booing the shit out of him, but he pays no attention to them living in his own delusional world. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – I have been your Mexican Heavyweight champion for four months and I couldn’t have done it without my loyal friends Los Vipers and the love of my life Holidead!!!
[ The crowd boos as Holidead, Mil Muertes and Los Vipers pose for the crowd. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – For four months I have proven myself time and again that I am the best champion here in the Empire!!! While others like Alexander Stone and Chandler Hopkins couldn’t keep their titles, I have left a pile of bodies behind me!!! Funny Bones, STIXX, Tiger King, Joey Ryan twice, Kahagas twice, Boris Drago twice and finally Caristico twice!!! All left lying at my feet while I remain the greatest Mexican Heavyweight Champion of all time!!!
[ Los Vipers, Mil Muertes and Holidead clap and cheer him on agreeing with everything he is saying. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – At Civil War, I put the icing on the cake when I not only beat Caristico for the second time, but I ended his illustrious career in-front of his family and friends!!!
[ The boos within the arena are deafening. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – We will all miss Caristico (he states sarcastically), but if you can’t hang with the big boys; then step aside and let those that can take their rightful place!!! Men and women like Los Vipers!!! Holidead!!! And the newest member of my Cartel… Mil Muertes!!!
[ The crowd continues their boos as the entire Cartel pose in the ring. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – After my match against Caristico, I debated retiring this belt!!! That looking at the current roster, there just isn’t anyone left worthy enough to challenge me for it!!! Alexander Stone and Chandler Hopkins? They couldn’t even keep their own belts so why should I give them a shot at mine!!! Kahagas? Like I said, been there and beat his ass twice!!! Steve Scott? Boy it looks like your own house needs some work after what your former friend Fulton did to your ass amigo!!! There’s nobody!!! Nobody is worthy enough to step inside this ring and face me!!! So, in saying that; maybe it’s time to set aside the Mexican Heavyweight title for good and set my sights on the biggest prize in the Empire… the World Heavyweight championship!!! If I could hold this title for so long, just imagine what I could do if I…
[ The sold-out crowd explodes to their feet as "Painkiller" by Judas Priest starts up and the lights go red and the Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge emerges as flames fire up down the ramp to the ring. ]
[ The crowd goes ape-shit as Tank storms down to the ring and climbs in showing no fear as the Cartel surrounds him like a pack of wild dogs. Tito smiles at Tank as JoJo Rodriguez hands Tank a mic. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Wait, wait, wait… should I call you Tank, Silverback or maybe Kong Arias? Which is it tonight old man?
[ Tank, ever serious just stares at Tito boring a hole right through him. ]
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – You and your group of second-rate idiots here can call me whatever you want, but at the end of the day know this champ… I’m taking that belt from you and I’m doing it at Red, White and Bruised!!!
[ Tito and the rest of the Cartel laughs at Tank. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Hold on a second old man, I don’t mean any disrespect; but I think that Hell in a Cell match that you had with Alexander Stone did some brain damage!!! Did I hear you correctly? That you’re challenging me to a title match at Red, White and Bruised? That you actually think that you’re worthy of a shot at this (and Tito shows off his Mexican Heavyweight title)?
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – I’m taking that belt from you, and there aint a damn thing you can do to stop me!!!
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Ok, ok relax. I can see the veins in your neck ready to explode. No need to get all jacked up here. I tell you what, Silverback; you want a shot at this?
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – You’re damn straight I do.
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Ok, I respect your determination. But looking at the rankings, the funny thing is; I don’t see your name anywhere.
[ Tito gets right in Tanks face. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – You’re not worthy!!!
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Worthy? I’ll show you fucking worthy!!!
[ Tank is ready to take on the entire Cartel as Mil Muertes steps between Tank and Tito. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – You know what Tank? I feel sorry for you. All the old timers like Go-D, Chris Simmons, Mike Thompson and yourself desperate to hold on to your pasts. Refusing to accept the fact that you’re old and that you’re past your prime!!! That you just don’t have what it takes anymore!!!
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – I’m going to fuck you up!!!
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Now there’s the old Tank we all loved back in the day when Mark fed you jobber after jobber. How exactly did you win so many titles Tank? I thought I heard that there was a bit of favoritism back in the day. You, DDP, Pezzer. All Marks boys, right amigo. But listen, I’m a generous champion so I’m going to do you a solid and give you a chance to prove yourself worthy of a title shot against me.
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Fine, name it.
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Let’s not get too excited amigo, because what I am going to offer you may just end your career for good.
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Just name it for Christ sakes!!
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Next week on Afterburn, you will have to defeat Los Vipers in a two on one match…
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Me against those two ass-clowns? Sign the contract!!!
[ Tito smiles. ]
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – Slow down friend. If you do beat them, the following week you have to face my new big man, Mil Muertes in singles action!!!
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – So all I have to do is beat all three of them to get a match against you at the pay per view?
The United States Heavyweight Champion “Relentless” Tito Escobar – That’s right. If you beat my men, I will give you a title shot at the pay per view. Deal?
[ Tito extends his hand and Tank just stares down at it before spitting into it.]
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – Go fuck yourself!!!
[ Tank points at Los Vipers. ]
The Greatest of All Time champion "The Monster" Tank Edge – I’ll see you two pussies next week!!!
[ Tank storms out of the ring as Tito asks for a towel to wipe the spit off his hand. The cameras pan back to Mike and Pezzer ringside. ]
Mike Godwinn – What an amazing turn of events to start the show off Pezzer. Tito was just about to retire the United States Heavyweight title when Tank interrupted him and challenged him to a title match at our upcoming event in July aptly named Red, White and Bruised!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – One on one I give Tank a great shot at winning, but he’s gotta run the gauntlet of Los Vipers and then the big man Mil Muertes and I’m not sure if he’s got enough left in his tank to beat all of them. Tank just might have bitten off more than he expected.
Mike Godwinn – I for one can’t wait to see him back in action. He did a fantastic job at Civil War during the battle royal, even though he didn’t win the thing.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – He had a very impressive outing and his stablemate Go-D won the match so at the end of the day Legacy got what they set their sights on. I just wonder how long we have to wait until we see Go-D cash in his title shot.
Mike Godwinn – That’s a great question and I’m sure we will hear more from Go-D in the days and weeks leading up to the pay per view, but let’s talk about tonight’s card. At Civil War we saw the return of the big man Marc Fulton and we also saw him attack his tag team partner Steve Scott. I’m sure Steve has a ton of questions for Fulton and maybe he will get his answers tonight when Fulton is in singles action against Joey Ryan.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Man I would hate to be Joey Ryan tonight. The big man came back to the Empire pretty pissed off and this may just be his statement match.
Mike Godwinn – In another match we will see S.E.X. in action as they take on Exile. It was at Queen of the Ring that Exodus subbed in for Gabby Jetson and it didn’t sit well with Malia Hosaka. Hosaka took exception to Exodus entering the battle royal and when she told her to eliminate herself, they had a bit of a confrontation.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Malia is the leader of this group and she wants to be listened to. Exodus disrespected her and I’m sure there’s going to be hell to pay for that. Malia has been around for a long time and she’s not going to be shown up by these youngsters let alone one of her own kids.
Mike Godwinn – Staying within the Women’s division, we will have the pleasure of watching Solo Darling taking on Su Yim. It was Solo Darling that eliminated Su Yim at Queen of the Ring and you and I both know that she loved every minute of it.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – These two women have had issues with each other for over a month now and when Solo eliminated Su Yim, I am sure it just stoked the fire within Su Yim. I can’t wait to see these two women go at it tonight.
Mike Godwinn – In other women’s action, we will see Havok take on the hot Amber O’Neal.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Havok and Amber have been on two very opposite courses the last month. Havok has been dropping like a brick in the rankings while Amber has been slowly climbing up and is within reach of a title shot. Both women need this win tonight. It should be a great match.
Mike Godwinn – Turning to the men’s division, we will see the undefeated Travis Blake take on the big man STIXX. STIXX has rebounded nicely after starting off winless for weeks and tonight he faces a very quick Travis Blake. Should be a good match.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Travis Blake is a great talent and I give the staff all the kudos for going out there and signing guys like Travis Blake and Psycho Messiah. We need guys like them to build the foundation of the future of this company. The only thing with Travis is can he stay focused and keep his sights set on the gold or will this feud he has with the Triad and Boris Drago especially derail him.
Mike Godwinn – Great question. In other action folks, we have a huge main event where Kahagas takes on Chandler Hopkins. Hopkins had two great matches against the World Champion Prophet and Alexander Stone in back-to-back weeks where he defeated Prophet and nearly defeated Stone. He’s making a huge push to be the next top contender to the World Heavyweight title very soon.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – This Young Gun as he likes to call himself has shown that he can wrestle anyone. Tonight, that’s put to the test as he wrestles Kahagas in what should be another great match. Kahagas isn’t a pushover. He’s had some great high profile matches and is currently ranked at number five right behind Hopkins. Both men could really use this win tonight as they look ahead to an eventual world title match.
Mike Godwinn – Two great young talents Pezzer. What a main event this is going to be. But first, we kick things off with tag team action as the Koloff Dynasty take on your buddies in Legacy.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – My buddies? You don’t see me joining Legacy have you. Sure, we shared a car ride or two across country, but these guys still have that drive to win world titles. I’m pretty happy sitting right here just flapping my gums night after night. There’s less of a chance to get injured here Mikey.
Mike Godwinn – Let’s go to the ring and kick things off. JoJo, it’s all yours!!!
Legacy vs The Koloff Dynasty
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making their way to the ring first, accompanied by Boris Drago and weighing in at a combined weight of 472 lbs.; Neal and Aleksandre Koloff; they are the Koloff Dynasty!!

“The Living Legend” Pezzer – I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I really don’t think that Boris Drago cares if the Koloff Dynasty ever wins. Drago brought them in to watch his back and be a force backstage. They set guys up and Drago takes them out.
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring, being accompanied by Go-D and weighing in at a combined weight of 467 lbs., “The Messiah” Chris Simmons and “Crazy Man” Mike Thompson, they are… Legacy!!!

Mike Godwinn – They call themselves Legacy Pezzer and they have the historical data to back it up.

[ The videotron comes on as it shows Courtney Cox standing next to the Lynch Mob.]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Joey, Matt; we all watched at Civil War where the Chain Gang retained their World Tag Team titles when they lost their championship match by disqualification to the Guerrillas of Destiny when Salena struck Tanga Loa with one of the title belts. Your thoughts?
Joey Lynch – Here’s what I think. Sucks to be you Guerillas. Lose your straps to the Chain Gang, sucks to be you… lose your rematch, next team up!!!
Matt Lynch – You boys had your shot and you lost. Time to step aside and let the real number one contenders take those straps off those gang bangers!!!
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Is that a challenge for Red, White and Bruised?
[ The former World Tag Team Champions the Guerillas of Destiny storm onto the set. ]
Tanga Loa – What exactly makes the two of you farm boys think that you deserve to be the number one contender?
Tama Tonga – You two are nothen but a bunch of bitches!!! We beat your asses at Day of Reckoning and you aint done shit to deserve a title shot since then!!!
Matt Lynch – You boys want a fight, let’s do this right now!!!
Joey Lynch – We don’t need a ring. We’ll take you out back to the parking lot and whoop your asses!!!
[ A full-scale brawl breaks out backstage as security floods the area trying to break the two teams apart. The show swings back to Mike and Pezzer ringside. ]
Mike Godwinn – What an explosive situation we have backstage Pezzer.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – I can see both sides in this argument. The Guerillas didn’t lose at Civil War so why should they not be the number one contender, but yet they didn’t exactly beat the Chain Gang either so why can’t the Lynch Mob get their shot? I would hate to be Shane and DDP when they decide who’s going to face the Chain Gang at the pay per view!!!

Time of match: 0:12:36
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – The winner of this match, Havok!!!
Mike Godwinn – What a well-deserved win by Havok tonight and she needed it in a bad way to get back on track to challenge for a title shot.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – She’s got a long way to go to get back into title contention, but this sure as shit sets the ship right again.
Mike Godwinn – For Amber, it’s back to the drawing board as she drops yet another match and will most certainly drop in the rankings. Folks, let’s go to the back as Courtney Cox is standing by with Chandler Hopkins.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Courtney Cox standing next to Chandler Hopkins. ]
Courtney “Loves” Cox – Chandler, the month of May ended pretty good for you as you defeated the World Heavyweight Champion Prophet and you took the former World Heavyweight Champion Alexander Stone to the limit losing to him in overtime.
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Yeah, May did get off to a bad start losing my TV title to Raven Horse, but I think that all my hard work paid off and at the end of the day I showed everyone in the back that I am a top contender in this company.
Courtney “Loves” Cox – You currently sit in the number four spot for the World Heavyweight title right behind Stone, Escobar, and the man that won the Civil War battle royal Go-D. That’s some pretty tough company you have surrounded yourself with.
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Anytime you break into the top five you’re sitting amongst some of the very best in any company and the Empire is no different. Go-D earned himself the number one spot by outlasting nineteen other men. Good for him. But what he also did was put a huge bullseye on his back. Everyone knows his history. Hell, there’s a page on the website dedicated just for guys like him!!! But he needs to know that this isn’t the same Empire he knew. This is our Empire!!! Guys like Stone, Escobar, myself and I hate to say it but Prophet too.
[ Just then, Go-D walks onto the set looking determined. ]
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Chandler, let me give you a bit of advice. The next time my name comes out of your mouth you better be man enough to say it to my face!!!
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – You think I’m afraid of you?
[ Go-D chuckles. ]
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Kid, I know you’ve got a big set of balls on you. I’ve seen your matches with Stone and Prophet. But let me educate you son… you’ve never been in a match with me!!!
“Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Fine, let’s do it then!!! Next week, right here on Afterburn; you and me in the main event!!!
[ Go-D smiles at Hopkins. ]
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Kid, you’ve got no idea what you just asked for!!! I’ll see you next week.
[ Go-D walks off the set as Hopkins just watches him walk away. The show swings back to Mike and Pezzer ringside. ]
Mike Godwinn – What a massive main event for next week Pezzer!!! Go-D will be in singles action for the first time in years here in the Empire as he takes on Chandler Hopkins!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – If Go-D is going to be taken seriously, then he’s going to have to beat some of the best guys in the Empire and Hopkins ranks right up there as one of the best. He can’t waste time playing around with the guys at the bottom of the rankings.
Mike Godwinn – Folks, at Civil War we all watched in awe as Marc Fulton returned to the Empire and entered into the battle royal. But nobody was more shocked than his own tag team partner Steve Scott who later in the night was attacked by Fulton and put through a table backstage.

“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And his opponent. Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 318 lbs; this is… “The Madman” Marc Fulton!!!
[ The crowd boos as the very pissed off big man storms down to the ring and steps over the top rope to get into the ring. ]
Mike Godwinn – This is one huge man and he seems like he’s edgier than he was before he left with the injury. He’s angrier than he was.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Something is bothering him and call me silly but I think it’s got to do with Steve Scott.

“The Living Legend” Pezzer – The guy’s a powerhouse and there’s only a few guys on the roster than can match him power for power.
[ The crowd pops to their feet as Steve Scott and Bloody Mary walk out on stage. ]
[ Marc Fulton waits in the ring as Scott and Bloody Mary climb into the ring and JoJo hands him a mic. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – Marc… what the hell man?
[ Fulton doesn’t say anything. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – You’ve got nothing to say to me? To us?
[ Scott motions toward Bloody Mary who was also part of their team, but Fulton still says nothing. ]
“Bloodlust” Steve Scott – You drove me through a God damn table man? What the fuck was that about?
[ Fulton tries to walk past Scott, but Steve grabs the big man by the arm stopping him. ]

[ Fulton glares down at Scott’s hand, then he attacks and whips Scott into the ropes and decapitates him with a big boot to the face that knocks the shit out of Steve Scott!!! Fulton turns his attention toward Bloody Mary, but as he sees the fear in her eyes he backs off and steps over the top rope and leaves the ring as EMT’s rush into the ring to tend to Steve Scott. ]
Mike Godwinn – What the hell is going on between these two men? Fulton just took Scott’s head off with that big boot and he showed little or no remorse for it!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Whatever is bothering the big guy it’s all about the injury he suffered and his former tag team partner, that’s a given. I’m sure we are going to learn the exact facts as the weeks roll on.
Mike Godwinn – Pezzer, our next match has been heating up for weeks and it features Su Yim taking on Solo Darling.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Solo Darling has upped her game these past few months since aligning with Reverend Azazel and she has Su Yim in her crosshairs.

[ Some fans cheer and some boo as from the back, the Zombie Bride crawls out and down the rampway to the ringside area as “Undead Bride” sends chills down everyone’s spines. ]
Mike Godwinn – Su Yim comes into this match as the number three contender to the Women’s National title and with Amber O’Neal losing tonight it just might give Su Yim that extra added incentive to win tonight and move up the rankings.
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – I don’t think Su Yim needs any extra incentive to get her hands on this little shit Solo Darling.
“Party in the Back” JoJo Rodriguez – And her opponent!! Making her way to the ring, being accompanied by her manager Reverend Azazel, she weighs in at 122 lbs., she is… Solo Darling!!!
[ The crowd erupts as “Feel the Sting” by Kenny & Harley Wootton rocks the arena and Christina walks out on stage with her manager Reverend Azazel. Together they make their way down to the ring where she climbs in with a serious and determined look on her face. ]
Mike Godwinn – Solo comes into this match ranked number six to the Women’s World title and with a win tonight she just might get closer to that elusive Women’s World title match she has been dying to have!!!
“The Living Legend” Pezzer – Unlike the men’s division, I think the top of the Women’s division is wide open. It’s Amber Nova, and then the rest of the roster. It’s Amber’s world and the rest of the roster is just renting space.
