Live from the sold-out Landon Arena in Topeka, Kansas
Monday Night July 12th, 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 "Warriors" by Imagine Dragons 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 “The Mexican Sensation” Caristico and “British Royalty” Phillip Greenway are standing by. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Good evening folks and welcome to another amazing night of action right here in the World Wrestling Empire!! I am Phillip Greenway and I am joined alongside by my broadcast colleague, and Mexican Sensation… Caristico!!! Partner, what a huge show we have in store for all the fans of the Empire that are tuning in tonight or have joined us in the arena!!! Six huge matches that all build up to our main event which features Tank and Go-D teaming up to face Chandler Hopkins and the World Champion Prophet in a match that has tremendous pay per view implications!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s right Phillip. We learned last week on Afterburn that if Go-D’s team wins, Go-D will get his World title rematch against Prophet at Summer Stampede. If Prophet’s team wins, then Chandler Hopkins will have earned a United States title shot at the pay per view!!! All four men have something to gain tonight!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In other matches that have pay per view implications, we are going to see Arik Cannon take on STIXX in a TV title Eliminator match. Whichever man wins tonight will have earned the final spot in the TV title Fatal Four-way match at Summer Stampede. Men that have already locked in their spots are the former champion Raven Horse, “Big Mike” Bulk who defeated Kahagas last week in record time and of course the current champion Psycho Messiah!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Psycho Messiah won the belt at Red, White and Bruised after Shane McMahon came down to the ring and refused to let Raven Horse walk out again and take the DQ loss, but retain his title. Shane let the match continue and, in the end, Psycho Messiah defeated Raven Horse. On Afterburn, Raven Horse demanded a rematch, but so didn’t a number of other guys which led to tonight’s Eliminator match. What a set-up for the pay per view!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Should be good. Caristico, tonight we are loaded with tag team action as Shanna Furguson teams up with Maria Manic to take on the Women’s World Tag Team Champions Caged Heat in a huge bad blood match.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Shanna may have won her match at the pay per view, but what she didn’t do was walk out with the National title and that rests right on Salena and Caged Heat. Tonight, Shanna looks to get some payback on them.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another big tag team match that we will see is the Zealots taking on the Hooligans. A few weeks ago, these two teams met and it ended in a time limit draw. Tonight, these two teams go at it again to see if we can get a winner.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The Zealots have a ton to prove tonight because in their minds they are the best team in the Empire and to even take a draw to the Hooligans was a slap in the face!!! Prophet wants to dominate the Empire and in order to do that he needs the Zealots to capture gold. Losing to the Hooligans is unacceptable to Prophet. Tonight, they are here to show the world that their prior match was nothing but a fluke.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In our final tag team match, we will see the reformed team of Bloody Mary and Havok taking on the Canadian Ninjas. The Ninjas are coming off a tough loss to S.E.X. at the pay per view and Bloody Mary and Havok are hell bent on dominating the Women’s Tag Team division.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Havok and Bloody Mary are a couple of singles stars that are trying to mesh together. They both have clashing ego’s that need to be put into check if they are going to be a serious tag team.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we have all that and we kick it off with a clash of former tag team partners in Genesis and Exodus!! If Exodus can find a way to beat Genesis, then she will have earned herself a shot at Malia Hosaka!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – We heard from Malia last week and she feels that her former student has forgotten her place. That Exodus has turned her back on their team and put her own career ahead of them. Exodus tells a much different story, as she feels like she has been held back and that Malia is only using the girls to put herself over. This is such a clash between these three women that it could only end one way and that’s with Exodus and Malia at each other throats.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time to go to the ring for this huge clash of two former best friends and tag team partners!!! We are about to see the end of the Exiles. Harvey, take it away buddy!!!
Genesis vs Exodus
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making her way to the ring, being accompanied by Malia Hosaka; and weighing in at 160 lbs., she is… Genesis!!!
[ The crowd boos their asses off as “Head like a hole” by Nine Inch Nails plays. Malia Hosaka and Genesis walk down to the ring and climb in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Genesis was the powerhouse of the Exiles and tonight she has to take on a much smaller and quicker opponent in Exodus.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I don’t really think that size is going to matter much because nobody knows Exodus better than Genesis does. These two women have trained with each other for months. They know each other better than anyone does!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her opponent. Making her way to the ring weighing in at 120 lbs., she is… Exodus!!!
[ The crowd cheers as “Love, Fury, Passion, Energy” plays and Exodus walk down to the ring and climbs in not taking her eyes off of Malia. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All Exodus ever wanted was to show the world that she can wrestle as a singles superstar. That she was more than just a tag team specialist. That she had a career as a singles superstar. That door opened up to her at Queen of the Ring, and here we are over a month later; these two former friends are at each other’s throats!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This should be a great match. Exodus a budding superstar and Genesis pissed off that her team just imploded right in-front of her. Both women, hell bent on kicking the shit out of each other. This should be good!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, our very own Cindy Meyers is standing by with Shane McMahon. Let’s listen in.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Cindy Meyers next to the CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon. ]
Cindy Meyers – Shane we all watched last week on Afterburn as Holidead landed awkwardly on her leg and immediately went down clutching her knee. Do you have any updates on her condition?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Holidead was treated at a local medical facility and was released over the weekend. She is resting at home right now healing up.
Cindy Meyers – Can you tell us the extent of her injuries and how long before we may see her back in the ring?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – She suffered a dislocated knee cap. The initial diagnosis is that she will be out of action for about a month, maybe longer depending on how it heals.
[ Just then, the former United States Heavyweight Champion Tito Escobar walks onto the set followed by Los Vipers and Mil Muertes. ]
[ Tito walks up to Shane and sizes the CEO up and down with a pissed off look on his face. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Can I help you boys?
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – Can you help us? Can you... help us? Funny that you say that Shane, because it seems like you’re more worried about helping Tank than us.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Don’t even start...
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – Start, Shane? Oh, I’m just getting started. You see boss-man, you allowed Tank to use the Gauntlet of the Gods against me. And as far as I know, that’s an illegal weapon.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – You’re forgetting that Mil Muertes tried tossing you the title belt.
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – Then you should have disqualified me.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Listen, I’m sick and tired of guys like you and Raven Horse cheating to retain your titles!!! It’s about damn time guys like you got what’s coming to you!!!
[ Tito leans in close to Shane’s ear. ]
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – At the end of the day, you... Tank... Dario Cueto... you’re all going to get what you deserve!!!
[ The Cartel storms off the set as the show swings back to Phillip and Caristico ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Let’s start off with the news about Holidead. It appears that she suffered a dislocated knee cap and will be on the shelf for about a month.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The way she landed on that leg I feared the worst. It’s a good thing that she didn’t tear an ACL because it would have been months before she came back, if ever.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We also heard from Tito Escobar who seems to be in a pretty nasty mood since losing his United States Heavyweight title to Tank.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Tank did something that no other wrestler, not even myself; could do. Tito may hate it, but Tank played the same game that Tito does and he aligned himself with men and women that he could trust. Good for him.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All I can say is, Tank and his crew better watch their backs because it sounds like Tito is hell bent on revenge. Folks, another team hell bent on revenge is the Zealots as they take on the Hooligans for a second time. The first match ended in a time limit draw, which in Prophet’s book is as good as a loss. Let’s go back to the ring for this big rematch!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Hooligans come into this match with a two and six record and they are ranked number seven in the World Tag Team title rankings.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – With a win tonight it will move them up the rankings, spring boarding them past the Natural Disasters.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents. Making their way to the ring, being accompanied by the reigning World Heavyweight Champion Prophet! and “The Outlaw” Chandler Hopkins; they are Painkiller and Insanity, they are… the Zealots!!!
[ The crowd goes ape-shit booing as the arena goes dark and pyro explodes before “The Power of I and I” by Shadows Fall explodes across the arena. The red spotlight beams down to the center of the stage where the new World Heavyweight Champion Prophet stands, arms out wide showing off his new World title belt around his waist and his book in hand.

[ Prophet smiles as he watches Go-D and his crew walk halfway down the rampway and stop. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – You must be mistaken David. I have read the good book from cover to cover and nowhere in its glorious writings does it ever mention... you!!!
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Well maybe it’s time we rip that son of a bitch up and burn it because none of this around you would even be here if it wasn’t for Legacy and the path we built!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – How utterly egotistical of you thinking that the Empire was built around you. I have it on good terms that the one true person that carried this company on his back for years was none other than...

[ Prophet smiles at Tank. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Once again, I believe your inflated ego makes you believe that I was referencing you. But just like David, I was not taking about you or your over inflated record. We all know that the staff spoon fed all of you to keep you in the title picture. How else would you have won all those championships?
The Greatest of All Time and United States Heavyweight Champion "The Monster" Tank – Go fuck yourself!!! I earned all those titles!!!

The Greatest of All Time and United States Heavyweight Champion "The Monster" Tank – Get to the fucking point!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Oh yes, the point. The point. What is the point? Well, I’ll let the real person that carried the Empire all those years tell you what the point is.
[ Suddenly, “It’s me... It’s me... It’s D... D... P!!!” rocks the arena and the crowd goes wild as the General Manager of the Empire DDP walks out on stage with mic in hand. ]
The General Manager of the Empire and Hall of Famer DDP – You all need to throttle back and listen up!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Your back must be so sore from carrying these buffoons for all those years!!!
The General Manager of the Empire and Hall of Famer DDP – Cut his mic!!! In-fact, cut all their damn mics!!!
[ Prophet, Tank and Go-D look pissed as their mics are cut off. ]
The General Manager of the Empire and Hall of Famer DDP – Earlier tonight, Prophet came to me with a concern; and as much as I hate to admit it, watching what is about to go down he may be right. So tonight, in the main event, I am banning all the extra baggage from the ring. That means the Zealots, Legacy and Yomi-no-Kuni are banned from ringside. Whoever wins tonight is going to earn it!!!
[ DDP walks off the stage as the show flashes to the back where Cindy Meyers is standing by with the Women’s World Champion Amber Nova. ]
Cindy Meyers – Amber, first off congratulations on your successful title defense at Red, White and Bruised when you defeated Gabby Jetson.
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Was there any doubt, Cindy? It’s just another notch in my World title belt.
Cindy Meyers – Looking ahead to future title defenses, we know that Millie McKenzie is waiting for her shot at Diamonds are Forever, but we heard from Solo Darling last week on Afterburn in which she laid out a challenge for your Women’s World title. Your thoughts?
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Solo Darling? What, she has literally five minutes of fame in some weird Buried Alive match and she thinks the new player in town. Get real.
Cindy Meyers – So, is that a no; you won’t face her?
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Cindy, look at the list of women that are in contention for my title. Millie aside, we’ve got Thunder Rosa knocking on my door. And let’s not forget Shanna Furguson, the former Women’s National champion. So, Solo Darling; you want me at Summer Stampede? You need to run the gauntlet sister. You beat Shanna and Thunder Rosa, yeah; I’ll give you your shot!!!
Cindy Meyers – Solo, if you’re listening; the ball is in your court!!! Guys, back to you.
[ The show swings back to Phillip and Caristico at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Does it seem to you that Amber is belittling Solo Darling? That the champion doesn’t think Solo is worthy of a title shot?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Honestly, I don’t think Amber believes any woman on the roster is worthy of a title shot. Let’s just go down the list of names that she defeated. It’s a who’s who in the Empire!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Actually, let’s switch focus right now to another tag team match and the return of Bloody Mary and Havok to the division as they take on the Canadian Ninjas. Let’s get back to the ring for tonight’s introductions!!!
Bloody Mary and Havok vs The Canadian Ninjas
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making their way to the ring, weighing in at a combined weight of 313 lbs, Portia Perez and Nicole Matthews; they are… the Canadian Ninja’s!!!
[ The crowd goes nuts as “I like it heavy” by Halestorm rocks the building as Portia Perez and Nicole Matthews, better known as the Canadian Ninja’s walk down to the ring and climb in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Ninjas have come into this match with a respectable record of four and five, but they have failed to grab the brass ring and capture the gold. Tonight, they go up against two of the most unorthodox women on the roster.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – With a win tonight, it won’t help thing in the rankings, but it will put that thought in the back of people’s heads that they can’t be taken lightly.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents! Making their way to the ring, weighing in at a combined weight of 414 lbs., Bloody Mary and Havok!!!
[ The crowd goes crazy booing as "Let's Go All the Way" by Insane Clown Posse rocks the arena as Bloody Mary and Havok make their way down to the ring and climb in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Talk about taking people seriously, Bloody Mary and Havok cannot be overlooked as a serious threat. Bloody Mary is a former Women’s World champion and Havok has challenged for that same title.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – They both have their sights set on the Women’s World Tag Team titles but it’s not going to be easy with the likes of Medusa Complex, Caged Heat, and new comers the Heartbreakers within the division.

Time of match: 0:06:24
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match, Bloody Mary and Havok!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a huge comeback win for these two women tonight improving their tag team record to one and one.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Very nice win for these two women, but I have to say that I really think Bloody Mary carried this match tonight. I can’t wait to see them take on some of the heavy hitters in the division.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, during the match our cameras caught up with Travis Blake and something very interesting occurred that we think that you want to see.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Travis Blake in his dressing room talking to a medical technician who is working out some minor injuries that Travis sustained in his match at the pay per view against Boris Drago. Travis gets tense as Reverend Azazel walks into the room with Solo Darling beside him. ]
[ Reverend Azazel smiles at the medical technician. ]
Reverend Azazel – May I have a word with him please?
[ The technician looks as Travis who nods his head. ]
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – It’s alright. Go ahead.
[ The medic grabs his bag and leaves the room as Azazel smiles at Travis. ]
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – Make it quick.
Reverend Azazel – On Afterburn, I watched as Salena offered you a spot in her quote un-quote Nation as she likes to call it.
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – So? What’s it to you?
Reverend Azazel – Let me ask you something, what exactly did Salena offer you that I can’t?
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – She... she really didn’t promise me anything... really.
Reverend Azazel – Look, Salena cannot be trusted. She’s a maniacal, evil, demented woman that very recently turned her back on Shanna Furguson and beat her down on live TV. If she did that to a former Women’s National champion, what pray tell do you think she will do to you.
[ Solo walks over and messages Travis’s shoulders. ]
Solo Darling – I saw what you did to Drago...
[ And she leans down and whispers in his ear. ]
Solo Darling – ...and it made me so wet.
[ Azazel smiles at the two of them. ]
Reverend Azazel – My boy, I can give you so much more than championships!!!
[ Solo kisses Travis. ]
Reverend Azazel – Think about it my boy. Think about what we can do for you!!!
[ Azazel walks out and Solo winks at Travis as she follows suit. The show switches back to Phillip and Caristico ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It seems my friend, that Travis Blake is the hottest free agent on the market with all the top managers in the Empire vying for his services.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Honestly, I don’t think either of them are a good fit for Travis; and really... does he need a manager? This kid has climbed the mountain alone. Why does he think he even needs any help?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I don’t think that he’s the one that is looking for a manager as much as they are seeking him out. Anyway, our next match is a big one as the current Women’s National Champion Maria Manic teams with the former Women’s National Champion Shanna Furguson to take on the Women’s World Tag Team Champion’s Caged Heat!!! Folks, let’s get right back to the ring for more great Women’s Tag Team action. Harvey, take it away buddy!!!
Maria Manic and Shanna Furguson vs Caged Heat
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following tag team match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit and it is for the Women’s World Tag Team titles!!! Making their way to the ring accompanied by their manager Salena, weighing in at a combined weight of 518 lbs., Loca and Delta Lotta Pain; they are the Two-time Women’s World Tag Team Champions… Caged Heat!!!
[ The crowd boos as the two former convicts march down to the ring rapping their own theme song “Do it yourself” before finally rolling into the ring. Caged Heat storms around the ring as Salena barks orders at them. They mount the turnbuckles and show off their World Tag Team titles to the sold-out crowd!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – And here are the new Women’s World Tag Team champions as they defeated the struggling Medusa Complex just a week ago at Red, White and Bruised!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – After losing the titles on April fourth at the Day of Reckoning pay per view, Caged Heat has been hot on the heels of whoever has held the belts and they finally managed to get them back. Let’s see how long they can hold on to them as the Women’s Tag Team division is heating up with the addition of the Heartbreakers and the team we saw earlier tonight, Bloody Mary and Havok!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their first opponent!!! Making her way to the ring first, weighing in at 161 lbs.; she is the current Women’s National Champion, this is… “The Maneater” Maria Manic!
[ A mixture of boos and cheers erupt as “Unbreakable” by Michael Elgin plays as Maria storms down to the ring and marches up the ring steps and climbs into the ring showing off her Women’s National title belt!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Maria is an absolute powerhouse and Caged Heat has no idea what to expect when they climb into the ring with her.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Well, I am pretty certain that what they did do was piss the champion off and a pissed off Maria Manic is a dangerous Maria Manic!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her tag team partner!!! Making her way to the ring; she weighs in at 155 lbs., and she is the former Women’s National Champion; this is… “The Beast” Shanna Furguson!!!
[ The crowd boos as “The Trainer Battle” of the Pokémon Guitar Cover plays Shanna storms down to the ring, bare foot and dressed in her UFC garb. She dives under the bottom rope and starts to pace around like a mad woman. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Shanna is a woman possessed tonight as she teams up with her former opponent at Red, White and Bruised to take on the tag team that she once called friends.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – When you say friends Phillip, you should use that term very loosely because real friends would never turn their back on you let along attack you during a championship match and cost you a title. With friends like that, who needs enemies?

Maria hits her own bulldog on Loca. Maria tries for a clothesline, but Loca counters it with a crucifix pin Loca as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...and Maria kicks out!!! ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The power of these four women make it a pretty even match-up!!! It may take something out of the norm to pick up the win tonight.
[ Loca hits a DDT on Maria Manic. Loca hits the 6-1-9 on Maria and then goes for the cover as Ken Peterson counts ...1 ...2 ...2 ½ ...and Shanna dives in to make the save!!! ]
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Shanna can sense that Maria is hurting right now and the National Champion needs to tag out!!!
[ Loca locks Maria Manic in a Texas Cloverleaf as Ken Peterson asks Maria Manic to respond or he'll stop the fight. Maria Manic nods she’s alright as she reaches out and grabs the ropes forcing Loca to let go. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Shanna is screaming from her corner for Maria to get up and make the tag!!! Maria has been in this match for a long time!!!
[ Loca attempts an arm grapevine, but Maria blocks it. Maria drives a chop into Loca. Maria gets a sleeperhold locked in on Loca, but Loca makes it to the ropes. Maria runs into the ropes, but Loca hits Maria with a shoulderblock. Suddenly, Millie McKenzie and Charli Evans... Medusa Complex hit the ring and the Women’s World Tag Team champions head for the hills as they roll out of the ring and grab their belts and rush back up the ramp. ]
[ The referee counts the World champions out as Millie demands a mic. ]
Time of match: 0:03:55
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match by count-out, Maria Manic and Shanna Furguson!!!
“The Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Maria, Shanna; we’re sorry for coming out here and breaking up what was going to be a great match, but I’m afraid that the ass kicking Caged Heat is going to get is going to be at the hands of Medusa Complex!!!
[ The crowd cheers hearing that they are still a team. Millie hands the mic to Charli as she looks up the ramp at Caged Heat. ]
Charli Evans – You see girls, Millie and I know that our days as a tag team are numbered. Hell, it might already be over and we’re too dumb to know it. But what we both know is that if we’re going out... that this is the end of the road for Medusa Complex; the we’re going out swinging and we’re not waiting for the pay per view!!! In three nights on Afterburn, we are going to take back what belongs to us; or we’re going to die trying!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Man, I really wanted to see who would have won this match. It’s not every day that you get pay per view quality matches on free TV.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If the staff has any sense, they will rebook this match at a later date. You can be sure that Shanna and Maria aren’t done with Caged Heat yet!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Ladies and gentlemen do we have a treat for you tonight as Cindy Meyers is standing by right now with two living legends of the Empire, “The Messiah” Chris Simmons & “Crazy Man” Mike Thompson. Let’s go to the back and listen in.
[ The cameras flash to the back as we see Cindy Meyers standing between Mike Thompson and Chris Simmons. ]
Cindy Meyers – Gentlemen, what a great start to what some people are calling a comeback tour for the three of you. Last Thursday night on Afterburn you defeated the Lynch Mob and improved your record to three and oh and moved into the number two spot in the rankings right behind the Guerillas of Destiny.
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – People talk and act like this streak my buddy and I are on is some big deal. Like nobody expected us to be as good as we are. That since the Empire closed way back when, Chris and I were put out to the pasture. Well, truth be told; we never quit. We never gave up. We refuse to lose and we won’t rest until we capture the World Tag Team titles!!!
Cindy Meyers – Speaking of the World Tag Team titles, for the greater part of two months now the Chain Gang has held onto the belts with an iron grip. When the time comes to challenge for the titles, what is your plan to dethrone the champions?
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – Dethrone the champions? That’s a load of crap. The champions better watch their asses because Legacy is bearing down on them and they’ve got no idea what’s coming for them. You see it’s pretty damn simple. My partner and I, we’ve held championships all over the damn world; but the one title that neither of us has ever held was World Tag Team gold!!! When the Empire reopened, Mike and say an opportunity and we seized it. Chain Gang, you better heed our warnings. We’re coming for those title’s boys, and there aint a damn thing you can do to stop our legacy!!!
[ After Chris’s heartfelt speech, the two tag team partners hear clapping as the Guerillas of Destiny walk onto the set. ]
Tanga Loa – Bravo, bravo. I almost shed a tear listening to the two of you. Almost... but not. You see boys, this aint two thousand and nine and you two old men don’t run the place no more. We do!!!
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – Really? I don’t see the belts around your waists!!! How’s that working for yah?
Tama Tonga – Very funny you old fuck. How about I knock you on your ass and send you back to the old folks’ home?
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – Go ahead and try it and the medics will be pulling my boot out of your ass!!!
Tanga Loa – Keep running your mouth cause we about to fuck you up!!!
[ Before it gets ugly, the General Manager of the Empire DDP walks onto the set. ]
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – Everyone needs to calm the hell down. Now I hear what you’re all saying and I get it. You all think you deserve to be the World Tag Team Champions. But in order to be champions, you first have to be the top contenders.
Tama Tonga – Check your own rankings Page. We’re number one!!!
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – You look more like a solid number two to me!!!
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – That’s enough. With Summer Stampede just a few weeks away we need to determine a new number one contender.
Tanga Loa – We got ten wins. Nobody can match that!! We deserve the title shot!!!
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – Now normally I would agree with you, but let’s face it; you boys lost your shot. If you want another one, you’re going to have to earn it!!!
Tama Tonga – Earn it? This is bullshit!!!
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – Aww, what’s the matter? Baby want a bottle?
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – Knock it off!!! Now on Afterburn this week we are going to have a number one contender’s match with the winner moving on to Summer Stampede to take on the Chain Gang for the World Tag Team titles. Until then, it’s hands off each other!!!
[ The Guerillas storm off the set leaving Legacy and DDP behind. ]
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – We knew you’d have our backs.
[ Chris fist bumps DDP and he walks away as Crazy Man stands there glaring at Page. ]
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – What?
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – I’m just trying to figure out what side you’re on.
[ Page smiles at Crazy Man. ]
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – I guess time will only tell.
[ Page walks off the set as Crazy Man stands there pondering that answer. The show swings back to Phillip and Caristico ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Caristico, what a huge night Afterburn is shaping up to be as we have not one, but two massive pay per view quality matches Thursday night!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Both the men’s and women’s tag team divisions are red hot right now as more and more teams join the fight!!! I can’t wait to see who will challenge the Chain Gang at Summer Stampede!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time for our final TV title Eliminator match as Arik Cannon takes on the big man STIXX. Let’s go back to the ring for this huge match that has Summer Stampede implications. Harvey, take it away my friend!!!

[ Love him or hate him, the crowd does love his entrance music as “I’m shipping up to Boston” by Dropkick Murphy’s rings across the stadium as the red headed Irish fighter marches down to the ring pissed off with his hands all taped up. He stomps up the stairs and climbs through the ropes ripping his leather jacket off and tossing it to the ringside attendant. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Man, Erik Cannon has been in a tough patch for the past few months ever since losing his World title shot against Alexander Stone. It was last week at the pay per view that he took a loss to Chandler Hopkins when the so-called Outlaw used that loaded cast to knock out Cannon.

Time of match: 0:04:26
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match, Arik Cannon!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a great win for the brawler from Ireland as he just scored his first win since February fifteenth!!! He needed a match like this to get back into title contention!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If we go back and look to see where his downfall began, it was his World title match at Undisputed against Alexander Stone. That match propelled his career to the bottom of the rankings even though he took on some of the top wrestlers in the Empire week in and week out!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Folks, we have Cindy Meyers standing by with the new W.W.E. Television Champion Psycho Messiah. Let’s go to the back and hear what our new champion has to say.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Cindy Meyers standing next to the TV Champion Psycho Messiah who proudly has his TV title draped over his right shoulder. ]
Cindy Meyers – Psycho Messiah, congratulations on your huge TV title victory over the former champion Raven Horse at Red, White and Bruised.
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – Thank you Cindy, it feels great.
Cindy Meyers – So, last week on Afterburn; the CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon announced that at Summer Stampede there is going to be a Fatal Four-way match for your TV title where you will be taking on Bulk, who literally crushed Kahagas last week and we have also learned just moments ago that the final participant is going to be Arik Cannon. But the man that has to be the biggest threat to your new title reign is the former champion Raven Horse.
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – Cindy, I knew that becoming champion in the Empire was going to put a huge target on my back. Hell, I want there to be a huge target on my back!!! I welcome any challenge that Shane wants to throw in-front of me!!! I didn’t come here to win one championship; I came here to win them all!!!

[ Psycho Messiah adjust his title belt and glares at Shane. ]
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – What do you want?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – A man that likes to get right to the point. I like that. Cut away all the bullshit and get right to the heart of things. Alright then. I was listening to you and I gotta tell you, I like what I hear. But I kinda think actions speak louder than words, you know what I mean?
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – Can you just get to the point?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Sure... sure. Here’s what I’m getting at. This week on Afterburn, it’s going to be a huge night. We have epic tag team matches, and I’m looking to make even more epic. Huge!!! So, picture this. You, Bulk and Arik Cannon versus the Natural Disasters and Raven Horse in a six-man tag team match!!!
[ Psycho Messiah doesn’t look amused. ]
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – You want me to team with three of the guys I have to fight at the pay per view? How am I supposed to trust any of them to have my back?

He walks down to the ring and climbs in posing for his fans as a red spotlight beam’s down on him. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – This psychopath has found a way to defeat some of the very best wrestlers in this company all the while surrounding himself with a hit squad of some of the most dangerous mercenaries in wrestling.

The music and pyro's stop as the cameras fade down to our broadcast table as “The Mexican Sensation” Caristico and “British Royalty” Phillip Greenway are standing by. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway - Good evening folks and welcome to another amazing night of action right here in the World Wrestling Empire!! I am Phillip Greenway and I am joined alongside by my broadcast colleague, and Mexican Sensation… Caristico!!! Partner, what a huge show we have in store for all the fans of the Empire that are tuning in tonight or have joined us in the arena!!! Six huge matches that all build up to our main event which features Tank and Go-D teaming up to face Chandler Hopkins and the World Champion Prophet in a match that has tremendous pay per view implications!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – That’s right Phillip. We learned last week on Afterburn that if Go-D’s team wins, Go-D will get his World title rematch against Prophet at Summer Stampede. If Prophet’s team wins, then Chandler Hopkins will have earned a United States title shot at the pay per view!!! All four men have something to gain tonight!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In other matches that have pay per view implications, we are going to see Arik Cannon take on STIXX in a TV title Eliminator match. Whichever man wins tonight will have earned the final spot in the TV title Fatal Four-way match at Summer Stampede. Men that have already locked in their spots are the former champion Raven Horse, “Big Mike” Bulk who defeated Kahagas last week in record time and of course the current champion Psycho Messiah!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Psycho Messiah won the belt at Red, White and Bruised after Shane McMahon came down to the ring and refused to let Raven Horse walk out again and take the DQ loss, but retain his title. Shane let the match continue and, in the end, Psycho Messiah defeated Raven Horse. On Afterburn, Raven Horse demanded a rematch, but so didn’t a number of other guys which led to tonight’s Eliminator match. What a set-up for the pay per view!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Should be good. Caristico, tonight we are loaded with tag team action as Shanna Furguson teams up with Maria Manic to take on the Women’s World Tag Team Champions Caged Heat in a huge bad blood match.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Shanna may have won her match at the pay per view, but what she didn’t do was walk out with the National title and that rests right on Salena and Caged Heat. Tonight, Shanna looks to get some payback on them.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Another big tag team match that we will see is the Zealots taking on the Hooligans. A few weeks ago, these two teams met and it ended in a time limit draw. Tonight, these two teams go at it again to see if we can get a winner.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The Zealots have a ton to prove tonight because in their minds they are the best team in the Empire and to even take a draw to the Hooligans was a slap in the face!!! Prophet wants to dominate the Empire and in order to do that he needs the Zealots to capture gold. Losing to the Hooligans is unacceptable to Prophet. Tonight, they are here to show the world that their prior match was nothing but a fluke.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – In our final tag team match, we will see the reformed team of Bloody Mary and Havok taking on the Canadian Ninjas. The Ninjas are coming off a tough loss to S.E.X. at the pay per view and Bloody Mary and Havok are hell bent on dominating the Women’s Tag Team division.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Havok and Bloody Mary are a couple of singles stars that are trying to mesh together. They both have clashing ego’s that need to be put into check if they are going to be a serious tag team.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, we have all that and we kick it off with a clash of former tag team partners in Genesis and Exodus!! If Exodus can find a way to beat Genesis, then she will have earned herself a shot at Malia Hosaka!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – We heard from Malia last week and she feels that her former student has forgotten her place. That Exodus has turned her back on their team and put her own career ahead of them. Exodus tells a much different story, as she feels like she has been held back and that Malia is only using the girls to put herself over. This is such a clash between these three women that it could only end one way and that’s with Exodus and Malia at each other throats.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, it’s time to go to the ring for this huge clash of two former best friends and tag team partners!!! We are about to see the end of the Exiles. Harvey, take it away buddy!!!
Genesis vs Exodus
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The following match is set for one fall with a twenty-minute time limit. Making her way to the ring, being accompanied by Malia Hosaka; and weighing in at 160 lbs., she is… Genesis!!!
[ The crowd boos their asses off as “Head like a hole” by Nine Inch Nails plays. Malia Hosaka and Genesis walk down to the ring and climb in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Genesis was the powerhouse of the Exiles and tonight she has to take on a much smaller and quicker opponent in Exodus.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – I don’t really think that size is going to matter much because nobody knows Exodus better than Genesis does. These two women have trained with each other for months. They know each other better than anyone does!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her opponent. Making her way to the ring weighing in at 120 lbs., she is… Exodus!!!
[ The crowd cheers as “Love, Fury, Passion, Energy” plays and Exodus walk down to the ring and climbs in not taking her eyes off of Malia. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All Exodus ever wanted was to show the world that she can wrestle as a singles superstar. That she was more than just a tag team specialist. That she had a career as a singles superstar. That door opened up to her at Queen of the Ring, and here we are over a month later; these two former friends are at each other’s throats!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – This should be a great match. Exodus a budding superstar and Genesis pissed off that her team just imploded right in-front of her. Both women, hell bent on kicking the shit out of each other. This should be good!!!

Cindy Meyers – Shane we all watched last week on Afterburn as Holidead landed awkwardly on her leg and immediately went down clutching her knee. Do you have any updates on her condition?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Holidead was treated at a local medical facility and was released over the weekend. She is resting at home right now healing up.
Cindy Meyers – Can you tell us the extent of her injuries and how long before we may see her back in the ring?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – She suffered a dislocated knee cap. The initial diagnosis is that she will be out of action for about a month, maybe longer depending on how it heals.
[ Just then, the former United States Heavyweight Champion Tito Escobar walks onto the set followed by Los Vipers and Mil Muertes. ]
[ Tito walks up to Shane and sizes the CEO up and down with a pissed off look on his face. ]
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Can I help you boys?
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – Can you help us? Can you... help us? Funny that you say that Shane, because it seems like you’re more worried about helping Tank than us.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Don’t even start...
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – Start, Shane? Oh, I’m just getting started. You see boss-man, you allowed Tank to use the Gauntlet of the Gods against me. And as far as I know, that’s an illegal weapon.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – You’re forgetting that Mil Muertes tried tossing you the title belt.
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – Then you should have disqualified me.
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Listen, I’m sick and tired of guys like you and Raven Horse cheating to retain your titles!!! It’s about damn time guys like you got what’s coming to you!!!
[ Tito leans in close to Shane’s ear. ]
“Relentless” Tito Escobar – At the end of the day, you... Tank... Dario Cueto... you’re all going to get what you deserve!!!
[ The Cartel storms off the set as the show swings back to Phillip and Caristico ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Let’s start off with the news about Holidead. It appears that she suffered a dislocated knee cap and will be on the shelf for about a month.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – The way she landed on that leg I feared the worst. It’s a good thing that she didn’t tear an ACL because it would have been months before she came back, if ever.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – We also heard from Tito Escobar who seems to be in a pretty nasty mood since losing his United States Heavyweight title to Tank.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Tank did something that no other wrestler, not even myself; could do. Tito may hate it, but Tank played the same game that Tito does and he aligned himself with men and women that he could trust. Good for him.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – All I can say is, Tank and his crew better watch their backs because it sounds like Tito is hell bent on revenge. Folks, another team hell bent on revenge is the Zealots as they take on the Hooligans for a second time. The first match ended in a time limit draw, which in Prophet’s book is as good as a loss. Let’s go back to the ring for this big rematch!!!

The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – The winner of this match, the Zealots!!!

The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – So it was written, so it shall come to pass!!! My Zealots are the greatest tag team to ever walk the green pastures of the Empire!!! No other tag team in history can compare to what they bring to the table. Together we will...

[ Prophet smiles as he watches Go-D and his crew walk halfway down the rampway and stop. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – You must be mistaken David. I have read the good book from cover to cover and nowhere in its glorious writings does it ever mention... you!!!
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Well maybe it’s time we rip that son of a bitch up and burn it because none of this around you would even be here if it wasn’t for Legacy and the path we built!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – How utterly egotistical of you thinking that the Empire was built around you. I have it on good terms that the one true person that carried this company on his back for years was none other than...
[ "Painkiller" by Judas Priest starts up as the lights go red, the United States Heavyweight champion "The Monster" Tank Edge along with Shinigami Shogun and Rasputin Ito emerge from the back as flames fire up down the ramp to the ring.

He glares down at the ring and then to Go-D and his group of mercenaries on the ramp. ]
The Greatest of All Time and United States Heavyweight Champion "The Monster" Tank – I suggest you choose your words carefully when talking about the past. We spilt a lot of blood for this company.
[ Prophet smiles at Tank. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Once again, I believe your inflated ego makes you believe that I was referencing you. But just like David, I was not taking about you or your over inflated record. We all know that the staff spoon fed all of you to keep you in the title picture. How else would you have won all those championships?
The Greatest of All Time and United States Heavyweight Champion "The Monster" Tank – Go fuck yourself!!! I earned all those titles!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Such a wretched mouth on you. From what I read in the great book you were not the brightest child in school were you?
The Empire Hall of Famer Go-D – Enough of all this bull-shit!!! Why don’t the six of us just come down to the ring right now and end your shit once and for all!!!!
[ Again Prophet smiles. ]
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – You see David, I knew that this was going to be a problem. I knew that you were going to try take us out. Your exploits are well written how you can’t be trusted. Right Tank?
The Greatest of All Time and United States Heavyweight Champion "The Monster" Tank – Get to the fucking point!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Oh yes, the point. The point. What is the point? Well, I’ll let the real person that carried the Empire all those years tell you what the point is.
[ Suddenly, “It’s me... It’s me... It’s D... D... P!!!” rocks the arena and the crowd goes wild as the General Manager of the Empire DDP walks out on stage with mic in hand. ]
The General Manager of the Empire and Hall of Famer DDP – You all need to throttle back and listen up!!!
The World Heavyweight Champion “The Modern-day Messiah” “The Chosen One” Prophet – Your back must be so sore from carrying these buffoons for all those years!!!
The General Manager of the Empire and Hall of Famer DDP – Cut his mic!!! In-fact, cut all their damn mics!!!
[ Prophet, Tank and Go-D look pissed as their mics are cut off. ]
The General Manager of the Empire and Hall of Famer DDP – Earlier tonight, Prophet came to me with a concern; and as much as I hate to admit it, watching what is about to go down he may be right. So tonight, in the main event, I am banning all the extra baggage from the ring. That means the Zealots, Legacy and Yomi-no-Kuni are banned from ringside. Whoever wins tonight is going to earn it!!!
[ DDP walks off the stage as the show flashes to the back where Cindy Meyers is standing by with the Women’s World Champion Amber Nova. ]
Cindy Meyers – Amber, first off congratulations on your successful title defense at Red, White and Bruised when you defeated Gabby Jetson.
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Was there any doubt, Cindy? It’s just another notch in my World title belt.
Cindy Meyers – Looking ahead to future title defenses, we know that Millie McKenzie is waiting for her shot at Diamonds are Forever, but we heard from Solo Darling last week on Afterburn in which she laid out a challenge for your Women’s World title. Your thoughts?
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Solo Darling? What, she has literally five minutes of fame in some weird Buried Alive match and she thinks the new player in town. Get real.
Cindy Meyers – So, is that a no; you won’t face her?
The Women’s World Champion “The Perfect 10” Amber Nova – Cindy, look at the list of women that are in contention for my title. Millie aside, we’ve got Thunder Rosa knocking on my door. And let’s not forget Shanna Furguson, the former Women’s National champion. So, Solo Darling; you want me at Summer Stampede? You need to run the gauntlet sister. You beat Shanna and Thunder Rosa, yeah; I’ll give you your shot!!!
Cindy Meyers – Solo, if you’re listening; the ball is in your court!!! Guys, back to you.
[ The show swings back to Phillip and Caristico at ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Does it seem to you that Amber is belittling Solo Darling? That the champion doesn’t think Solo is worthy of a title shot?
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Honestly, I don’t think Amber believes any woman on the roster is worthy of a title shot. Let’s just go down the list of names that she defeated. It’s a who’s who in the Empire!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Actually, let’s switch focus right now to another tag team match and the return of Bloody Mary and Havok to the division as they take on the Canadian Ninjas. Let’s get back to the ring for tonight’s introductions!!!

[ The crowd goes nuts as “I like it heavy” by Halestorm rocks the building as Portia Perez and Nicole Matthews, better known as the Canadian Ninja’s walk down to the ring and climb in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – The Ninjas have come into this match with a respectable record of four and five, but they have failed to grab the brass ring and capture the gold. Tonight, they go up against two of the most unorthodox women on the roster.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – With a win tonight, it won’t help thing in the rankings, but it will put that thought in the back of people’s heads that they can’t be taken lightly.
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And their opponents! Making their way to the ring, weighing in at a combined weight of 414 lbs., Bloody Mary and Havok!!!
[ The crowd goes crazy booing as "Let's Go All the Way" by Insane Clown Posse rocks the arena as Bloody Mary and Havok make their way down to the ring and climb in. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Talk about taking people seriously, Bloody Mary and Havok cannot be overlooked as a serious threat. Bloody Mary is a former Women’s World champion and Havok has challenged for that same title.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – They both have their sights set on the Women’s World Tag Team titles but it’s not going to be easy with the likes of Medusa Complex, Caged Heat, and new comers the Heartbreakers within the division.

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – What a huge comeback win for these two women tonight improving their tag team record to one and one.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Very nice win for these two women, but I have to say that I really think Bloody Mary carried this match tonight. I can’t wait to see them take on some of the heavy hitters in the division.
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Folks, during the match our cameras caught up with Travis Blake and something very interesting occurred that we think that you want to see.
[ The videotron comes on as it shows Travis Blake in his dressing room talking to a medical technician who is working out some minor injuries that Travis sustained in his match at the pay per view against Boris Drago. Travis gets tense as Reverend Azazel walks into the room with Solo Darling beside him. ]
[ Reverend Azazel smiles at the medical technician. ]
Reverend Azazel – May I have a word with him please?
[ The technician looks as Travis who nods his head. ]
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – It’s alright. Go ahead.
[ The medic grabs his bag and leaves the room as Azazel smiles at Travis. ]
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – Make it quick.
Reverend Azazel – On Afterburn, I watched as Salena offered you a spot in her quote un-quote Nation as she likes to call it.
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – So? What’s it to you?
Reverend Azazel – Let me ask you something, what exactly did Salena offer you that I can’t?
"The Clown Prince of Pro-Wrestling" Travis Blake – She... she really didn’t promise me anything... really.
Reverend Azazel – Look, Salena cannot be trusted. She’s a maniacal, evil, demented woman that very recently turned her back on Shanna Furguson and beat her down on live TV. If she did that to a former Women’s National champion, what pray tell do you think she will do to you.
[ Solo walks over and messages Travis’s shoulders. ]
Solo Darling – I saw what you did to Drago...
[ And she leans down and whispers in his ear. ]
Solo Darling – ...and it made me so wet.
[ Azazel smiles at the two of them. ]
Reverend Azazel – My boy, I can give you so much more than championships!!!
[ Solo kisses Travis. ]
Reverend Azazel – Think about it my boy. Think about what we can do for you!!!
[ Azazel walks out and Solo winks at Travis as she follows suit. The show switches back to Phillip and Caristico ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – It seems my friend, that Travis Blake is the hottest free agent on the market with all the top managers in the Empire vying for his services.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Honestly, I don’t think either of them are a good fit for Travis; and really... does he need a manager? This kid has climbed the mountain alone. Why does he think he even needs any help?
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – I don’t think that he’s the one that is looking for a manager as much as they are seeking him out. Anyway, our next match is a big one as the current Women’s National Champion Maria Manic teams with the former Women’s National Champion Shanna Furguson to take on the Women’s World Tag Team Champion’s Caged Heat!!! Folks, let’s get right back to the ring for more great Women’s Tag Team action. Harvey, take it away buddy!!!

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Well, I am pretty certain that what they did do was piss the champion off and a pissed off Maria Manic is a dangerous Maria Manic!!!
The Jamaican Jew” Harvey Weinstein – And her tag team partner!!! Making her way to the ring; she weighs in at 155 lbs., and she is the former Women’s National Champion; this is… “The Beast” Shanna Furguson!!!

“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Shanna is a woman possessed tonight as she teams up with her former opponent at Red, White and Bruised to take on the tag team that she once called friends.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – When you say friends Phillip, you should use that term very loosely because real friends would never turn their back on you let along attack you during a championship match and cost you a title. With friends like that, who needs enemies?

[ Loca locks Maria Manic in a Texas Cloverleaf as Ken Peterson asks Maria Manic to respond or he'll stop the fight. Maria Manic nods she’s alright as she reaches out and grabs the ropes forcing Loca to let go. ]

“The Queen of the Ring” Millie McKenzie – Maria, Shanna; we’re sorry for coming out here and breaking up what was going to be a great match, but I’m afraid that the ass kicking Caged Heat is going to get is going to be at the hands of Medusa Complex!!!
[ The crowd cheers hearing that they are still a team. Millie hands the mic to Charli as she looks up the ramp at Caged Heat. ]
Charli Evans – You see girls, Millie and I know that our days as a tag team are numbered. Hell, it might already be over and we’re too dumb to know it. But what we both know is that if we’re going out... that this is the end of the road for Medusa Complex; the we’re going out swinging and we’re not waiting for the pay per view!!! In three nights on Afterburn, we are going to take back what belongs to us; or we’re going to die trying!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Man, I really wanted to see who would have won this match. It’s not every day that you get pay per view quality matches on free TV.
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If the staff has any sense, they will rebook this match at a later date. You can be sure that Shanna and Maria aren’t done with Caged Heat yet!!!
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Ladies and gentlemen do we have a treat for you tonight as Cindy Meyers is standing by right now with two living legends of the Empire, “The Messiah” Chris Simmons & “Crazy Man” Mike Thompson. Let’s go to the back and listen in.
[ The cameras flash to the back as we see Cindy Meyers standing between Mike Thompson and Chris Simmons. ]
Cindy Meyers – Gentlemen, what a great start to what some people are calling a comeback tour for the three of you. Last Thursday night on Afterburn you defeated the Lynch Mob and improved your record to three and oh and moved into the number two spot in the rankings right behind the Guerillas of Destiny.
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – People talk and act like this streak my buddy and I are on is some big deal. Like nobody expected us to be as good as we are. That since the Empire closed way back when, Chris and I were put out to the pasture. Well, truth be told; we never quit. We never gave up. We refuse to lose and we won’t rest until we capture the World Tag Team titles!!!
Cindy Meyers – Speaking of the World Tag Team titles, for the greater part of two months now the Chain Gang has held onto the belts with an iron grip. When the time comes to challenge for the titles, what is your plan to dethrone the champions?
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – Dethrone the champions? That’s a load of crap. The champions better watch their asses because Legacy is bearing down on them and they’ve got no idea what’s coming for them. You see it’s pretty damn simple. My partner and I, we’ve held championships all over the damn world; but the one title that neither of us has ever held was World Tag Team gold!!! When the Empire reopened, Mike and say an opportunity and we seized it. Chain Gang, you better heed our warnings. We’re coming for those title’s boys, and there aint a damn thing you can do to stop our legacy!!!
[ After Chris’s heartfelt speech, the two tag team partners hear clapping as the Guerillas of Destiny walk onto the set. ]
Tanga Loa – Bravo, bravo. I almost shed a tear listening to the two of you. Almost... but not. You see boys, this aint two thousand and nine and you two old men don’t run the place no more. We do!!!
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – Really? I don’t see the belts around your waists!!! How’s that working for yah?
Tama Tonga – Very funny you old fuck. How about I knock you on your ass and send you back to the old folks’ home?
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – Go ahead and try it and the medics will be pulling my boot out of your ass!!!
Tanga Loa – Keep running your mouth cause we about to fuck you up!!!
[ Before it gets ugly, the General Manager of the Empire DDP walks onto the set. ]
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – Everyone needs to calm the hell down. Now I hear what you’re all saying and I get it. You all think you deserve to be the World Tag Team Champions. But in order to be champions, you first have to be the top contenders.
Tama Tonga – Check your own rankings Page. We’re number one!!!
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – You look more like a solid number two to me!!!
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – That’s enough. With Summer Stampede just a few weeks away we need to determine a new number one contender.
Tanga Loa – We got ten wins. Nobody can match that!! We deserve the title shot!!!
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – Now normally I would agree with you, but let’s face it; you boys lost your shot. If you want another one, you’re going to have to earn it!!!
Tama Tonga – Earn it? This is bullshit!!!
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – Aww, what’s the matter? Baby want a bottle?
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – Knock it off!!! Now on Afterburn this week we are going to have a number one contender’s match with the winner moving on to Summer Stampede to take on the Chain Gang for the World Tag Team titles. Until then, it’s hands off each other!!!
[ The Guerillas storm off the set leaving Legacy and DDP behind. ]
“The Messiah” Chris Simmons – We knew you’d have our backs.
[ Chris fist bumps DDP and he walks away as Crazy Man stands there glaring at Page. ]
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – What?
“Crazy Man” Mike Thompson – I’m just trying to figure out what side you’re on.
[ Page smiles at Crazy Man. ]
The General Manager of the Empire DDP – I guess time will only tell.
[ Page walks off the set as Crazy Man stands there pondering that answer. The show swings back to Phillip and Caristico ringside. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Caristico, what a huge night Afterburn is shaping up to be as we have not one, but two massive pay per view quality matches Thursday night!!!
“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – Both the men’s and women’s tag team divisions are red hot right now as more and more teams join the fight!!! I can’t wait to see who will challenge the Chain Gang at Summer Stampede!!!

He stomps up the stairs and climbs through the ropes ripping his leather jacket off and tossing it to the ringside attendant. ]
“British Royalty” Phillip Greenway – Man, Erik Cannon has been in a tough patch for the past few months ever since losing his World title shot against Alexander Stone.

“The Mexican Sensation” Caristico – If we go back and look to see where his downfall began, it was his World title match at Undisputed against Alexander Stone.

Cindy Meyers – So, last week on Afterburn; the CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon announced that at Summer Stampede there is going to be a Fatal Four-way match for your TV title where you will be taking on Bulk, who literally crushed Kahagas last week and we have also learned just moments ago that the final participant is going to be Arik Cannon. But the man that has to be the biggest threat to your new title reign is the former champion Raven Horse.
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – Cindy, I knew that becoming champion in the Empire was going to put a huge target on my back. Hell, I want there to be a huge target on my back!!! I welcome any challenge that Shane wants to throw in-front of me!!! I didn’t come here to win one championship; I came here to win them all!!!

The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Hey champ. That title looks good on you.
[ Psycho Messiah adjust his title belt and glares at Shane. ]
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – What do you want?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – A man that likes to get right to the point. I like that. Cut away all the bullshit and get right to the heart of things. Alright then. I was listening to you and I gotta tell you, I like what I hear. But I kinda think actions speak louder than words, you know what I mean?
The TV Champion Psycho Messiah – Can you just get to the point?
The CEO of the Empire Shane McMahon – Sure... sure. Here’s what I’m getting at. This week on Afterburn, it’s going to be a huge night. We have epic tag team matches, and I’m looking to make even more epic. Huge!!! So, picture this. You, Bulk and Arik Cannon versus the Natural Disasters and Raven Horse in a six-man tag team match!!!
