Outside of Twoson Fairgrounds
Degrees: M's wait!
Boss M's: What?!
Degrees: You just can't take the bus!
Boss M's: Try and stop me!
Degrees: I don't understand! I agreed when you said you wanted to pull all the women's matches from tonight's show, even though I don't know why. I can't agree to this without you telling me what you're going to do.
Boss M's: I had a little talk with the ladies, and we're all in agreement on something, and that something is going to be handled tonight.
Degrees: I don't understand, you're supposed to be the Boss and set the example to-
Boss M's: To hell with that! I'm Lady M's, and I always have been. I'm tired of this bullshit. I know what I want now, and I'm going for it. Take the job and shove it! Better yet, I don't think the Lady Renegades need a Boss anymore! Ladies, you hear that? It's open season from now on! You want a match? You demand it! You fight for it! You make the champion defend! How is that for laying down the law Doc? Now, we've got no law! Board the bus Ladies, we're going to Onett!
Gordon Cole's Office
Gordon Cole is going over some paperwork, when Tack Angel enters the room.
Tack Angel: It's 8:50 PM on May 31st 2017.
Gordon Cole: ...*checks watch*
Tack Angel: I was worried about today because of the dream I told you about.
Gordon Cole: ...*nods*
Suddenly, Dougie Mach stumbles his way into the office, followed closely by Degrees.
Tack Angel: Dougie?!
Dougie Mach: ...You.
Degrees: I don't know how he got here, but he blasted right past security.
Tack Angel: Are you alright?
Dougie Mach: Back off!
Gordon Cole: WHAT'S THE MATTER SON?! YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'VE SEEN A GHOST!
Dougie Mach: ...*points to Tack* Who do you think that is there!
Gordon Cole: TAKE A SEAT! GIVE US THE SCOOP!
Dougie Mach: I saw it! I saw it's true face! I was there! I was it! I was the dark!
Gordon Cole: HANG ON! LET'S GET THIS INTERESTING STUFF DOWN ON PAPER!
Dougie Mach: Ness knows. He knows all about it!
Degrees: Um...I'm going to make a phone call...maybe get someone to take him home?
Tack Angel: Yeah, that's a good idea. I'll join you. He doesn't seem to want me here.
Dougie Mach: *looks at calendar* May 31st...2017?
Gordon Cole looks away for a brief moment. The lights flash in the office, and Dougie Mach disappears...
Gordon Cole: HE'S GONE! COME BACK! HE'S GONE!
Degrees: I just got off the phone with security! He was never here!
Tack Angel: ...Just like my dream.
Havok: Renegade Nation
Twoson Fairgrounds, Twoson
Renegade Television
1. Tag: Mason Storm[Debut]/Baron Von Killfist[Debut][o] beat Uncle Buckshot[Debut][x]/Filthy Phallus[Debut] via Top Rope Killfist -> Pin
2. Havok Clash #1 Contender: Razorblade beat Benjamin via TKO
3. Singles: Kinniku Mike beat Takuma Tsurugi via Dragon Suplex -> Pin
4. Singles: Amigo beat Severide via DQ
5. Singles: Camilo Ortega beat Maniac via STO Bomber -> Pin
6. Trios: Tack Angel/Trevor Mach/Camilo Ortega beat Lukie/Troy/Jackson Kain via DQ
7. Tag: Troy[o]/Lukie beat Tack Angel/Trevor Mach[x] via Powerbomb -> Pin
-The brand new duo of black ponytail and shades wearing Mason Storm, and muscle man with a twirly stache and pointy military hat named Baron Von Killfist beat the other debuting tag team, the bulbous Uncle Buckshot, and the dirty hillbilly Filthy Phallus. A top rope Killfist to Buckshot got them their first win.
-Razorblade became the new Clash #1 Contender after beating Benjamin via 3-0 TKO.
-Kinniku Mike narrowly avoided the KOs from Tsurugi to capture him in the Dragon Suplex for the pin in singles action.
-Amigo won too, but by DQ, when Severide refused to go down like his tag partner and hit the obvious lowblow before the DQ, but that didn't stop him from laying out Amigo with the KO Punch.
-Camilo Ortega continues to push towards the top following his win at The Golden. Jackson Kain stood by as Camilo Ortega fought off his interference and beat Maniac in singles action with an STO Bomber.
-The main event would see the Bad Dudes team up with Camilo Ortega, who was planning to go double duty after just beating Maniac, to team with the World Champ and Clash Champ against Television Champ Jackson Kain and the Alpha Betas. The Alliance were strong in this Trios match, but the Bad Dudes and Ortega rallied and attempted to overcome the odds, but Jackson Kain broke the rules in an attempt to hurt Ortega, laying him out with what looking like a prop Oscar that shattered on impact. The match ended in DQ, but Degrees demanded the mach restart as a tag match between the Bad Dudes and the Alpha Betas, in an attempt to show the viewers that Havok gives more than WBPW.
-A big main event + as the Bad Dudes clashed with the Alpha Betas. Hard hitting content, but the Alpha Betas reminded the Renegades just how good they are by scoring the pin after Troy caught Mach in a Macha Ye attempt and turned it into a Powerbomb. Big win for the Alpha Betas, who beat the double champs.
Twoson Fairgrounds - Locker Room
Tack Angel is packing up his bags, talking to Amy on the cellphone...
Tack Angel: *on the phone* I saw it in my dreams. I felt it in the stars. Something dark...a voice...echoing...Fear the Dark. Fear the Dark? No idea what that means, but maybe I'll find out someday. In the meantime, I'm going to beat this Alliance honey. You just watch me. Please call me back when you get this.
Tack opens the door, to a man standing in front of him with a gun...
Tack Angel: ...Not agai-
*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*

Wrestling Updates on ENN!
Nerma: Nerma here, and I am PISSED! I can't believe what happened tonight! You need to see it yourself! The Lady Renegades have INVADED!
Streets on Onett
The Havok bus is parked in the middle of the road, with the police trying to break up a big brawl between the Lady Renegades of Havok and the Women of WBPW...
Paula: WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!
Lady M's: KICKING ASS PAULA! WHERE IS HEATHER?! WHERE IS RIPPER JANE!?
Ripper Jane: RIGHT HERE!
Lady M's: BRING IT ON!
The cops are having trouble trying to gain control, as bitter rivals join forces to batter the women of the other promotion.
Nerma: Needless to say, we're not just going to let them get away with this. Sure, M's had a reason to go after Ripper Jane and Heather Mach, but this...this goes too far! TOO FAR!

Saturn City Hospital
A groggy Tack Angel awakens, as he takes stock of the room, the beeping machines and Doctor Degrees. He then panics as he looks into a mirror...
Tack Angel: DID I REGENERATE?! I REGENERATED DIDN'T I?! AM I A WOMAN NOW!?
Degrees: No Tack, you didn't. You don't actually do that. We've been meaning to tell you. We just play along, but I've realized that's not the best decision. I mean really Tack? You thought you existed in 2-dimensions?
Tack Angel: ...I could have just been looking sideways a lot I guess. Well, I did get shot at least right?
Degrees: Yeah, but you were wearing a vest. Did you know this was going to happen?
Tack Angel: ...I had a dream...seemed like a good idea.
Degrees: ....Right. Well, the shots missed vital organs, but you did lose a lot of blood.
Tack Angel: Oh, that's not good. Could be worse though. Last time I lost that much blood, I had to get a transfusion from-
Trevor Mach: Hey buddy!
Tack Angel: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Gordon Cole's Office
Gordon Cole is sitting silently, staring intently at Senor Box, who has appeared on his desk.
Gordon Cole: ....*nods* YES, I UNDERSTAND!
Cole then looks to a tv showing only static, and a record player constantly skipping.
Gordon Cole: THAT MAKES COMPLETE SENSE!
Tack Angel and Trevor Mach enter the room to see the sight.
Tack Angel: Are we interrupting something?
Gordon Cole: NOT AT ALL! COME IN AND GIVE ME THE GLAD HAND TACK! YOU LOOK MUCH BETTER!
Tack Angel: Thanks. I wanted to talk to you about the shooter.
Trevor Mach: It was Lukie wasn't it? That dude loves to shoot you.
Tack Angel: I don't know why either. I'm nice right? Did I borrow something and not give it back? Anyways, I can't let this sort of thing stand, so I'd be happy to talk on Lukie at the next show and-
Gordon Cole: HOLD IT RIGHT THERE TACK! I ALREADY HAVE YOUR NEXT MATCH BOOKED! YOU TWO ARE GOING TO FACE EACH OTHER AT E3!
Tack Angel: Me and Trevor?
Trevor Mach: We've got other scores to settle. Why this? Why now?
Gordon Cole: BECAUSE YOU TWO YOUNG MEN SEEM TO HAVE YOUR FINGERS ON THE PULSE OF THIS E3 THING!
Trevor Mach: Us? Young men?
Tack Angel: Well, compared to him maybe?
Trevor Mach: Oh, well that's nice.

The Angel Residence
Tack and Trevor are sitting on the couch, with Trevor just getting off the phone...
Trevor Mach: ...Well, Dougie says he was never at the office, so that's just adding more to this mystery.
Tack Angel: A lot of weird stuff is going down right now. Weird, cryptic messages, and warnings. You making amends with Derick is also strange.
Trevor Mach: Turning over a new leaf pal. *rattling pill bottle* Finally got my refill, so I'm feeling fine. Not losing my grip on reality, AND I don't feel like smoking one bit!
Tack Angel: Great, we're going to need you focused if some weird event is closing in on us. I can feel it too. I feel the negavibes that threaten me and my constellations. I-
Amy Angel: Tack, please we talked about this. Save the Star Prince talk for the show. Now, I'm going to go make dinner. Trevor, you can stay if you don't set anything on fire.
Trevor Mach: You got it! Wow, look at her. Pregnancy really fills her out if you know what I mean. Look at those TITS!
Tack Angel: ...D-do you think I'm somebody else right now?
Trevor Mach: ...Maybe my grip on reality is still....askew.
Tack Angel: How badly do you want a cigarette right now?
Trevor Mach: Not at all....giant...talking cigarette.
Tack Angel: ...Great.

The Mach Residence
Trevor Mach is going through an old box when Lady M's comes in.
Lady M's: Welp, I just got bailed out of jail, what are you doing?
Trevor Mach: I found this old box of VHS tapes in storage!
Lady M's: ...MORE VHS tapes? How many of those do you have?
Trevor Mach: Almost as many as my beta-max collection!
Lady M's: Of course. Welp, what did young Trevor store away this time? I'm sure it's that unopened copy of Empire that's supposed to make us a million dollars, because you don't understand what a collectable is or what it's really worth.
Trevor Mach: ....Porn...it's mostly porn. "Backdoor Sluts 4" for example. You uh....you want to watch?
Lady M's: I would, but I haven't seen 1-3 yet. I won't understand the plot.
Trevor Mach: It's mostly backstory I think.....I said it's mostly-
Lady M's: I get it! I'm just covered in the blood of my enemies and I could really use a shower.
Trevor Mach: Well alright then. What a gal, blood of her enemies and all that. You know my father was right about her when he said "She scares me. She scares me like nothing I've ever encountered before." Ha! Hey wait, what's this? "For Future Trevor"? I don't remember this at all. *pops tape in*
The tape first shows a commercial for Hi-C Ecto Cooler before cutting to Trevor stand in front of an old camcorder. His walls covered in movie posters and ninja stuff.
Young Trevor: Hello Future Trevor!
Trevor Mach: Hi!
Young Trevor: By the time you see this, you're going to be a grown up, meaning I bet you get to eat ice cream and pizza for every meal.
Trevor Mach: *gorging on Pizza and Ice Cream* You know it dude!
Young Trevor: Also, I bet you're a big important Doctor like that Doogie Howser kid that's getting so much ass.
Trevor Mach: ...Well, I was partly right.
Young Trevor: I just hope you've talked yourself out of becoming a wrestler by now, and realized that Doctor...who is secretly a Ninja, traveling from town to town, solving problems in a weekly episodic format, is a MUCH better life choice!
Trevor Mach: Oh shit.
Lady M's comes out to see Young Trevor on TV wielding nun-chucks to Kenny Loggins music.
Lady M's: ...What is that?
Trevor Mach: Look at me Tali....I was glorious!
Lady M's: You just hit yourself in the eye!
Trevor Mach: ...I've realized something about my life, that's going to change everything. Kenny Loggins is just rhyming Danger Zone with Danger Zone!
Lady M's: Huh.
Trevor Mach: Also, I need to become a Doctor/Ninja.
Lady M's: OR! OR! You could NOT listen to young you, and instead keep kicking ass for money.
Trevor Mach: ...That sounds good too. Damn. I just wish I had a sign that that's the ring way to go.
A young Lady M's climbs in through the window of Young Trevor's room.
Young M's: What's this I hear about you being a Doctor/Ninja? That's AWESOME! I ALSO want to be a Ninja!
Lady M's: DAMMIT!
Dark Road
A stylish black car drives through the night, disregarding the speed limit as it seamlessly glides through the curves. The headlights light up the yellow markers, giving off the only light on this dark road. The car pull into a clearing in the woods, where two figure stand. The man steps out of the black car and adjusts his cowboy hat, as his snakeskin boots touch the ground...
Rufus Poochyfud: You're late Earl.
Earl: I arrive when I feel like it Poochyfud. The events happen when I get here. I never miss a thing.
Stuart: You sure about that? You're plan didn't work. We got VBW's backing, but WBPW and 3'dPW want no part of it. They want to stand on their own.
Earl: It was worth a shot.
Rufus Poochyfud: Didn't you need this?
Earl: No. Not really. You boys need to relax. Sometimes, things work and sometimes they don't.
Rufus Poochyfud: You got us out of jail for revenge, and so far, we've only convinced the Alpha Betas to go to Havok instead of WBPW so they could get to those two assholes!
Earl: You don't know how to play the long game at all. I've been working at this longer than you know. I've been paying close attention, especially after an "incident" in Anahauc.
Stuart: If you know so much, and you have the resources, why aren't you making your move.
Earl: I'm waiting.
Stuart: For what?
Earl: For when I feel like it. I DO have a job you know. I have to leave here and see to it that a dictator doesn't get overthrown by making sure his opponent doesn't see tomorrow.
Rufus Poochyfud: You have a full plate, why worry about this so much? The current government isn't against Havok like the previous one.
Earl: Something is coming boys. Something big, and I reckon the three of us better be ready to reap the rewards...who could stop us?

It's still E3 right? That was weeks ago? Shit! Uhh....here.
Havok: Renegade Nation Special @ E3!
Renegade Television
1. Havok Trios Championship: Subculture(c)/Razorblade(c)[o]/Maniac(c) beat Bashin Dan/Benjamin/Slam Master Jam[x] via Piledriver -> Pin
2. Non-Title Tag: Kinniku Mike/Amigo[o] beat Takuma Tsurugi[x]/Severide via Olympic Slam -> Pin
3. Havok Television Championship: Camilo Ortega beat Jackson Kain(c) via DQ
4. Lady Renegade Trios: Lady M's/Hope Mach/Christina Angel vs. Rose Mulligan/Momo Miyuki/Kelly Steele ended in No Contest!
5. Champion vs. Champion: Tack Angel vs. Trevor Mach ended in Time Limit Draw!
-The Supremacy defended against Dan, Benjamin, and SMJ in the opening match, a Piledriver keeping the Trios Titles within the Alliance to End Star Prince.
-The Crew showed they were the veteran tag team in Havok, with a win over the Tag Team Champions Last Sunrise. It was non-title, so the belts remain in the Alliance, but that has to guarantee a title shot for the Crew.
-Camilo Ortega took Television Champion Jackson Kain to the limit, but Kain got himself DQ'd with a lowblow, losing the match, but keeping his title. Degrees came out to announce that they would have a rematch at Havok: Neon, for the title, and it would be No Rules.
-Lady M's lead her contingent against Rose Mulligan's group in Lady Renegades Trios action. The teams found SOME common ground when they both attacked the WBPW Women's locker room not too long ago, but the heat was back on. As for the WBPW women, well they returned the favor, rushing the ring and bypassing Swift Security to attack both teams and force a No Contest.
-The Bad Dudes Tack Angel and Trevor Mach faced off in the main event. The World Champion versus the King of Clash. A match fit for a huge event, and it didn't disappoint. The two went all out, while the Alliance to End Star Prince taunted the two from the outside. A surprise outcome with a time limit draw. The two friends shook hands after making sure the Alliance stayed out of the ring.
There....good enough. Shit.

Skies above Eagleland
A hot air balloon in carrying three figures. Two of those figures are Tack Angel and Trevor Mach...
Tack Angel: Trevor, for the last time, where are we? Havok: Neon is supposed to be in Summers, and I don't think we're anywhere close to it.
Trevor Mach: Oh, we went a COMPLETELY different direction bro.
Tack Angel: What? Why? You said we were going to get to the show just as soon as we found that treasure....wait....why did I listen to you? I should have known immediately that was just baloney!
Trevor Mach: Two friends, sailing in the sky, in a wicker basket, with a strange man holding a cheese plate. This IS the treasure! You want a Vicodin?
Tack Angel: Isn't it really dangerous to do that sort of thing thousands of feet in the air?
Trevor Mach: Yeah. Exactly.
Trevor launches himself out of the basket.
Tack Angel: TREVOR NO!
Tack looks down to see Trevor dangling from a bungie cord, one that looks to be about ready to pull him over as well.
Trevor Mach: NEVER GONNA DIE!
Strange man with the cheese plate: Your friend is like the coolest guy I've ever had up here.
Tack Angel: ...I'm going to need you to cut this COOOOOR-
Trevor Mach: WHEW! FUN RIGHT?!
Tack Angel: ...Why am I hanging upside down like this? What is the point?
Trevor Mach: We had to get someplace secret to talk!
Tack Angel: Wait...an actual purpose?! We could have just talked in the balloon!
Trevor Mach: The cheese guy...he's shifty I tells ya.
Tack Angel: So, what's going on.
Trevor Mach: Some strange shit's been going down. Gordon Cole called it a "Blue Rose", and I think that means strange, which coming from THAT GUY, means it's very strange.
Tack Angel: Alright, so what does that have to do with all of this?
Trevor Mach: We need the balloon because we're going someplace that wouldn't let us in otherwise.
Tack Angel: Where?
Trevor Mach: We're going to Onett!
Tack Angel: ...But Onett is THAT way.
Trevor Mach: DAMN!

Road to Summers
Christina Angel is driving herself and her father to the arena for Havok: Neon...
Tack Angel: Thanks again for driving my little starlight. I really need both hands free for this snack. I have a root beer AND ice cream. I'm going to make a float inside my mouth! Mmm! *swishing* Mmmmmmm!
Amigo: What your father is doing is called molecular gastronomy! The swishing releases the carbon dioxide from the soda! He's enjoying his snack on a chemical level!
Christina Angel: Whoa! Amigo, I forgot we were even giving you a ride! What are you even talking about?
Amigo: ...I read things sometimes...just like to share...I'm going back to sleep back here.
Christina Angel: *sigh* I need to concentrate. We're almost there. *texting*
Tack Angel: Christina, could you please get off your phone and learn something about flavor. It's important. Better yet, don't text and drive, you're scaring your father.
Christina Angel: Just texting Mom, because you never went home after doing whatever you were doing with Uncle Trevor in Onett.
Tack Angel: ...We were on a treasure hunt....yeah...that's it.
Christina Angel: ...Sure. *texting*
Tack Angel: Christina, I love you, but this texting thing. You keep it up with your head buried in your phone, and one day, you'll look up and wonder "Why am I at the retirement home?"
Christina Angel: Are you saying I'm going to drive to the retirement home?
Tack Angel: No, I mean you'll have wasted your life and not even realize it until it's too late.
Amigo: Come on, you knew what he meant.
Tack Angel: That's it....no more texting in the Angel Family!
Christina Angel: That's insane Dad.
Amigo: Yeah, Amy is NOT going to go for that.
Tack Angel: Right...well then...no more texting while driving!
Amigo: Yeah, that's actually smart.
Tack Angel: And no texting at the dinner table....or during family game night.....and....at Church...and the movies....and funerals, weddings, oh they're coming to me now, or charity events, or work functions, or during the anthem, or the "In Memorium" part of the Oscars! Whew. That was a mouthful. I just put my foot down hard on texting, the Star Prince way, tough, but fair. Amigo, read that back to me please?
Amigo: ...I wasn't writing it down.
Tack Angel: ...
Amigo: I remember them all though.
Tack Angel: Alright, well just don't forget please, and write them all down when we get to the arena. Nobody talk to Amigo while he's remembering my list.
Christina Angel: ....Dad...I'm over 18 remember?
Tack Angel: Oh right...well then...this applies to BABY CHRISTINA! Star Prince, planning for the future.
Christina Angel: ....We're here guys.
Amigo: Finally! I was going to throw myself out of the backseat!
Tack Angel: ...He's a good friend.

Summers
Amigo and Mike have are pulling up to the arena in Summers...
Amigo: Well, here we are. Thanks for reminding me I had to pick you up....I had to go all the way back to Saturn City to get you. I was already here, sitting in my hotel room....with my sandwich.
Kinniku Mike: ...*sigh* Sorry.
Amigo: An apology? Mike, are you dying?
Kinniku Mike: No.
Amigo: ...Will giving you my sandwich help?
Kinniku Mike: It might?
Amigo: ...Perhaps just tell me what's wrong. I'm not just going to hand over my sandwich....it's a meatball sub...that's kind of a big deal.
Kinniku Mike: You know what the biggest lie in the world is Amigo my man? A Forever stamp that says Love.
Amigo: Oh woman troubles...not surprising. Who is it this time?
Kinniku Mike: Not just one.
Amigo: Oh for crying out loud.
Kinniku Mike: THEY broke my heart!
Amigo: Who:
Kinniku Mike: The Oi Sisters!
Amigo: ....THE Oi Sisters?!
Kinniku Mike: Turns out, they didn't want to share me. I had a strong tit for each of them *sniff* but I guess you can never get enough of Mike. Uuuuuu....
Amigo: Mike remember, this happens like every week. Why don't you dry your eyes and get refocused on winning the tag gold with me.
Kinniku Mike: ...Can I still have the sandwich?
Amigo: ...No.
Also Summers
The Mach Family is also pulling into the city...
Lady M's: That trip felt like weeks....fucking weeks Trevor.
Trevor Mach: Don't blame me! You're driving!
Lady M's: Yeah, but YOU just had to see the world's biggest ball of yarn!
Trevor Mach: And it was worth it right!?
Lady M's: ....Dammit yes.
Trevor Mach: Trevor Knows Best! *looks at the Lakitu*
Hope Mach: Dad, what are you doing?
Trevor Mach: Trying to make this the pilot of my reality show, that will ACTUALLY be a nepotistic way of getting you a singing/acting career.
Hope Mach: I don't want either of those things.
Lady M's: And you HATE reality shows!
Trevor Mach: Yes, but I enjoy money, keep up you two!
Lady M's: I think INSTEAD of that, we encourage Hope to try to kill Rose Mulligan BUT make it look like an accident!
Hope Mach: I don't know about all that. I'll just win the title instead.
Lady M's: ...Whatever.
Trevor Mach: Hey look guys! *sticks his hand out of the window* Look! The wind wants my hand to back up, but I won't let it! I'm stronger than air!
Trevor's left hand it suddenly lobbed off by an overhead bridge.
Lady M's: HOLY SHIT!
Hope Mach: DAD! YOUR HAND!
Trevor Mach: HA! Don't worry about that! Unlike Tack, I actually CAN regenerate!
Trevor's hand suddenly regrows itself.
Lady M's: What?!
Trevor Mach: Yeah, remember that time Degrees stuck me in that tank of purple stuff when DA killed me?
Lady M's: No. Not at all.
Trevor Mach: Well THIS as it turns out, is the side effect! It's how I got my eye back too. Remember when I lost my eye?
Lady M's: No.
Trevor Mach: ALSO, I was left with a perpetual grape flavor!
Lady M's: Alright, I WAS wondering about that.
Hope Mach: How often can you do that?
Trevor Mach: Whenever the plot calls for it sweetheart!
Laying in the road remains Trevor's severed hand. Suddenly, the hand begins to sprout a body!
Rovert: My name is Rovert, and I am evil! AHAHAHAHA-
A car rushing by runs down Rovert, killing him instantly.
Maniac: YOU GUYS! I THINK I JUST KILLED TREVOR MACH!
Razorblade: Awesome! I will win the belt by default! I can't wait to get to the arena and NOT see Trevor there!
Good News Gary: One of these days the cops ARE going to do something about us right? Right?

Havok
Tack Angel is standing with Gordon Cole in his office, two weeks after Neon.
Gordon Cole: GREAT NEWS! THE NETWORK IS BACK UP AND RUNNING! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOUR RIVALS RUFUS POOCHYFUD AND STUART TRIED TO STAGE A COUP OFF CAMERA!
Tack Angel: So loud. Yeah Boss, I know. Apparently, they were aligned with that Earl character from the Government. They were trying to cause enough strife to cause another Sanctum Ultimatum.
Gordon Cole: A BLUE ROSE CASE!
Tack Angel: Yes...that. They tried taking over WBPW, and then they sent Lukie and Troy before coming themselves. Luckily, the Star Prince was able to stop them. I followed them to the very depths of darkness, getting trapped in Moonside in the process, and encountering my own evil doppleganger, but we managed to stop them and send all three of them to jail.
Gordon Cole: GREAT WORK TACK!
Tack Angel: Don't thank me. Thank Box Lady.
Gordon Cole: WHO?!
Tack Angel: Box Lady. She claims to be Senor Box's wife. She spoke for him and warned us about all of this. Remember?
Gordon Cole: OH RIGHT! IT'S A SHAME NOBODY COULD SEE THAT AWESOME ACTION!
Tack Angel: I know. It's terrible. A world without visuals is tough, but we'll press on...in word form.
Gordon Cole: WELL I MUST BE GOING, I WAS ONLY HERE LONG ENOUGH TO SOLVE THIS CASE! JEFF ANDONUTS WILL BE BACK SHORTLY!
Tack Angel: Good...he too will be easy to fool.
Gordon Cole: WHAT?!
Tack Angel: NOTHING!
Gordon Cole: DAMMIT, ARE YOU DOPPLETACK?!
Tack Angel: NO ONE CAN STOP THE DARK STAR! MWAHAHAHAH!
*KICK!*
Tack Angel: You left the door to Moonside open you moron! Get him out of here! There is only one Star Prince!
And thus I decided I was bored with EVERYTHING I was doing, and want to do other stuff. Losing years of pictures with photobucket will do that to you.

Havok
-Havok Arena-
Outside of the heavily damaged arena, construction crews work around the clock to try and repair the damage done. Tack Angel, Trevor Mach, Lady M's, Kinniku Mike, and Amigo are sitting around just....waiting.
Kinniku Mike: Uuuuu! This sucks! When are we going to get back to kicking ass!
Trevor Mach: You could do that right now Mike. Go pick a fight with that construction worker over there.
Kinniku Mike: ...I want get paid for it.
Trevor Mach: Oh, well that's different.
Amigo: Apparently Andonuts took out a big insurance policy before leaving. Covers the cost of repairs, backpay, and then some.
Lady M's: That's convenient as shit. I don't like it. The world doesn't work that way. One day you're trying to pick a fight with all those bitches in Onett, and suddenly this bullshit! That's how the world works...it works like shit.
Trevor Mach: Wife lady is right. Did you know that Tack and I forgot to open the bar for like weeks? We're operating at a loss! Life isn't fair!
Lady M's: No Trevor, that's you forgetting things....like usual. Don't worry, I'll take the job.
Trevor Mach: What?
Lady M's: I'm your bartender, and you're going to pay me more than you pay yourself.
Trevor Mach: Fine with me. Just goes right back into Mr. Pocket!
Lady M's: When have you EVER seen money change hands from you to me and have it come back to you...ever?
Trevor Mach: Oh right.
Lady M's: I have a lot of time on my hands now that I'm not "ALLOWED" in Onett! As if they can stop me. As if they have one road in and out of town and a police blockade that's really....really...hard to get through....as if all that.
Tack Angel: Oh look...a four leaf clover! Make a wish!
Lady M's: I wish you weren't so fucking awkward.
Tack Angel: ...That is most unkind...most unkind.
Trevor Mach: Why you looking so grumpy Tackleton?
Tack Angel: You mean besides the rudeness? It's Lukie...Lukie and those Alliance...uh....BOZOS!
Trevor Mach: Whoa!
Amigo: Watch the language Star Prince.
Tack Angel: I'm sorry...I'm just flustered you see. They won't leave me alone.
Trevor Mach: The Alliance to End Star Prince won't leave Star Prince alone? Stop the presses!
Tack Angel: They've been threatening my family. I want to stop them Trevor! They even set the terms remember? They told us that if we fight them all at once and win, then they'll disband. Are you really hitting the brakes on a chance to fight the whole Alliance?
Trevor Mach: Oh I'm stomping the brakes, putting that idea right through the fucking windshield. That'd be giving them exactly what they want, so HARD NO on that brosef!
Tack Angel: Trevor, it's gonna be in a three tiered cage!
Trevor Mach: ...Why didn't you lead with that?! I'M IN!

Jeff Andonuts Office
The Boss has returned. The bespectacled man of science places his beakers back upon his table as Degrees enters the room.
Degrees: Well welcome back! It's good to see you again Jeff. Things have been crazy here.
Jeff Andonuts: I can see that! The building was nearly destroyed by those bastards Rufus Poochyfud and Stuart, and we never got a bit of it on camera!
Degrees: It's strange how that all turned out. It was as if-
Jeff Andonuts: Time skip right?
Degrees: What?
Jeff Andonuts: You remember it happening, but at the same time you don't feel like you lived it? Yeah, that's a time skip alright.
Degrees: ...Still confused.
Jeff Andonuts: The distortion in space time, that black hole, it acted up again. We thought it was getting better, but it wasn't. That's why I left in the first place. Gordon Cole was going to cover for me so I could work out the problem on my end. It's been contained, but the damage was done so to speak. Space time is all out of whack, and I don't want to alarm you, but we probably fell into an alternate universe, like the entire planet did.
Degrees: We did?!
Jeff Andonuts: I said we MIGHT have.
Degrees: No, you said we PROBABLY did!
Jeff Andonuts: Yeah....like 95% chance. It's fine, I'm sure it won't happen again. Besides, I handled the anomaly finally.
Degrees: How?
Jeff Andonuts: I made ANOTHER black hole!
Degrees: You what?!
Jeff Andonuts: They're cancelling each other out! It's perfect!
Degrees: That's madness!
Jeff Andonuts: IT'S SCIENCE! It solved another problem we were having too. The gravity force from the hole was dragging the continents together. We were on the verge of a New Pang-
Tack Angel: Boss, you got a minute?
Jeff Andonuts: Star Prince, my money making ace! My face of the company! Top merch seller, but maybe only because I wouldn't let Trevor sell his own line of alcohol and firearms!
Tack Angel: Glad you're back. I just wanted to make sure they put pen to paper on the agreement.
Jeff Andonuts: They did. Good News Gary brought it in. If you beat them in that cage, they will disband the Alliance.
Tack Angel: Good. It's time to get them off my back, and away from my family.
Jeff Andonuts: Hey, I'm all for it. This roster is getting out of control, and the direction of the company along with it. I'm going to right this ship, get our guys back from their excursions, and send two messages. #1, we're the best around, and always will be. #2, the Earth is now flat.
Degrees: Pardon?
Jeff Andonuts: Unintended side effect of the two black holes!
Tack Angel: That's all well and good, but this is personal for the Star Prince. The forces of evil are out to hurt my family, and I'm out for revenge.
Degrees: I didn't know you did revenge Tack.
Tack Angel: You didn't know I'm into rock polishing either. Check this out.
Degrees: Whoa! What is that?
Tack Angel: I call it a Star Quartz!
Degrees: ...I'm not going to call it that.
Tack Angel: Awwww.
Alliance Locker Room
Subculture: So, you going to shoot Tack tonight?
Lukie: Damn right I am!
Troy: Use this!
Lukie: You're just wearing your tights...where did you have this?
Troy: ...Because I'm Troy.
Lukie: What?
Trevor Mach: You're going to what now?
Troy: The fuck are you doing here?!
Trevor Mach: I was told you guys had Cinnamon Toast Crunch in here.
Troy: ...
Trevor Mach: Dude....C-T Crunch.

1. Singles: Amigo beat Filthy Phallus via Ankle Lock -> Submission
2. Singles: Kinniku Mike beat Uncle Buckshot via Muscle Buster -> Pin
3. Non-Title No Rules Singles: Mudslide beat Trevor Mach via Top Rope Splash -> Pin
4. Lady Renegades Trios: Dulce Reina[o]/Demon Masaki II/Lexie Bless beat Lady M's/Christina Angel[x]/Hope Mach via Dulce Driver -> Pin
5. Non-Title No Rules Singles: Lukie beat Tack Angel via Roll Up -> Pin
-Amigo beat Filthy Phallus in a quick match that ended in Submission. After the match Severide attacked and pounded on Amigo before Swift Security made the save.
-Kinniku Mike was also able to make quick work of his opponent Uncle Buckshot, putting him down with the Muscle Buster. Takuma Tsurugi tried to get involved, but Amigo ran to cut him off and suplexed him on the floor.
-Mudslide routed Trevor Mach in Non-title action in the third match, using his size and weight to defeat an already injured Mach, using the Top Rope Splash to secure the pin.
-Dulce Reina made a big statement in Trios action as she teamed with Demon Masaki II and Lexie Bless against Lady M's, Hope Mach, and Christina Angel. She pinned the former champ Christina following the Dulce Driver. This Anahauc star has the momentum heading into the 4-Way title match coming up.
-The main event would see the Havok World Champion Star Prince Tack Angel take on his arch-rival Lukie. It was No Rules, so OF COURSE Lukie tried pulling a gun on Tack. Trevor Mach ran out to try and cover for his friend, but he leapt in slow motion while everything else remained in normal speed, so he was way late. Luckily the bullet missed, but the distracted Tack got rolled up for the 1-2-3.

Havok: Star Prince Forever II: The Revenge
The Twoson Fairgrounds, the closest place to Onett that will house Havok, and so another big event hits the town that has not one, but two promotions that are practically the same! A packed crowd came to see the giant 3-tier cage that the Star Prince and the Bad Man would have to escape if they wanted to stop the Alliance to End Star Prince once and for all! Can they do it? Yeah probably.

6. 3-Tier Cage - Alliance vs. Star Prince: Tack Angel/Trevor Mach beat Mudslide/Lukie/Troy/Subculture/Razorblade/Maniac via Cage Escape
-Bashin Dan overcame a big challenge with newcomer Baron von Killfist, escaping his choke slam to hit the Brave Clash and score the pin. After the match, Jeff Andonuts came out and announced that cuts and arrivals were coming soon, and the first cut would be Baron von Killfist, who responded like you'd expect, needing to be escorted out. Filthy Phallus and Uncle Buckshot were kicked out too. I guess those one note characters served their purposes.
-Kinniku Mike and Amigo defended the tag belts successfully against Last Sunrise in their title rematch. The strikers were thwarted when Amigo hit the Olympic Slam on Tsurugi for the pin and title defense.
-Lady M's and her heated rival Kelly Steele took their brawls to a whole new level, as they fought through the crowd before finally hitting the ring. Kelly Steele was looking strong against the veteran, but a Shredding Backbreaker only lead to a 2-Count, and from their the fans rallied M's to stage a comeback, hitting the Rolling M's for the pin and the win.
-Camilo Ortega was able to continue his momentum from his win in The Golden Tournament by thwarting Jackson Kain in their second Television Championship match. Jackson Kain's cheating ways were back in full form, but Camilo blocked a low blow attempt and hit the STO Bomber to pin Kain and take the Havok Television Championship!
-Rose Mulligan continues his domination of the Lady Renegades division with a win over Christina Angel, Hope Mach, and Dulce Reina. A fantastic match, but the champ overcame the numbers game, hitting the Bloody Bomber on Angel for the pin. Big title defense for Rose Mulligan, but the celebration was short lived, as Lady M's rushed out and made it clear she wanted the next shot, and by making it clear I mean she beat on her until Kelly and Momo Miyuki saved the champ.
-The main event saw the 3-Tier cage descend on the ring, and by descend, I mean it lowered like a foot. The cage was in the way the whole night, maybe I forgot to mention that. The ceiling isn't very tall. It wasn't thought out fully. I'm writing this medicated. Tack Angel and Trevor were sent up to the top cage, as the Alliance made their way into the different layers. From their it was an all out brawl as the Star Prince and Bad Man took on Mudslide, the Alpha Betas, and the Supremacy. Mudslide made it easy on the top layer, as he thought it was a good idea to go to the top, but his weight had him falling through, allowing the duo to hop down to the second layer to fight the Alpha Betas. Lukie pulled out a gun YET AGAIN, but Tack forced the gun to the ground, where it went off and shot Troy in the shoulder. Everyone freaked out, giving Star Prince and Trevor the chance to escape the last floor. In a 2-on-3 fight, Tack Angel and Mach managed to hit their finishers on Blade and Maniac before hitting a Macha Ye x Rider Kick on Subculture, leading to the duo escaping and winning the match. The Alliance to End Star Prince has ended, thanks to the Prince of Stars and some asshole.

Havok News Update
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the still employed guy...of wrestling. Yeah, my job was cut back a little bit, but now, NOW it's like it never stops! I'm in charge of the website now, AND I have to give the Network updates! Jeff Andonuts is back, he's large and in charge, and he's making big changes for Havok going forward. The Network will no longer feature the news updates of two members of the so called "ENN Alliance" as it's being called. Three promotions banding together against us. That being said, the third promotion in particular will HAVE to be covered in just a moment, as we have big news concerning them. We will NOT however be showing their cards or results. We are Havok, and that's what you came to see baby! We start off first with our updated roster. We made some cuts, but we're also hearing word that new names are coming in that WON'T just be jobber fodder for our more established Renegades!

Tommy Dukes: We have heard that Takumi Inui and Dragon Shiryu are on their way back ASAP, with Firebrand X and Magnum PT returning shortly as well. We sent the Lakitus out to get the scoop on the hot young aces that will soon be firing up the Havok rings once again!
Rozan Five Peaks - Dalaam
Dragon Shiryu stands atop a mountain, practicing his fighting technique with a blindfold on. The water falls of the five peaks are the only sound other than his echoing strikes. His old master throws three targets into the air, and he manages to kick them all before removing his blindfold, revealing that his eyesight has returned.....no one stays blind in Havok. You notice that?
Mount Haruna - Akina, Edo
The Akina downhill slope is quiet in the night, as all that can be heard are the chirping of crickets. Suddenly, two lights pierce the darkness, as a car rips its way down the curves, drifting with effortless ease. Strapped to the back of the car is a familiar motorbike. The driver drifts to the bottom and hops out of his old Toyota 86. It's Takumi Inui. He looks down to his phone to see a call by Jeff Andonuts and answers, ready for what comes next.
Tommy Dukes: Is that cool or what?! Those two awesome Renegades are coming back just in time for the biggest tournament of the year! What, you thought The Golden tournament was all we had for you? It's time for the return of the E1 Climax! Yeah! Just....one....problem. As it turns out WBPW is claiming rights to the E1 Climax. The whole thing is a mess. They take and they take, but we're not letting them this time. We're stopping them....with the power of compromise?
WBPW Arena - Onett
Jeff Andonuts is standing at a podium beside his old friend Ness for a big announcement...
Jeff Andonuts: I didn't know if they'd let me back in here or not, but luckily, I had my good friend Ness to vouch for me. Now, he's made a new home for himself back where it all started, but my scientific mind...and heart I guess, told me to take Havok to the top, and make it the legendary promotion I know it can be. In that time, we're gotten a little rivalry with WBPW haven't we? We've been jabbing back and forth, and WBPW has been claiming stuff that we don't necessarily believe belongs to them. The legacy of EBW. For our part, we looked the other way when Lady M's staged some attacks on the Women Wrestlers of WBPW. It's been back and forth basically. Well, this E1 Climax issue can't be settled in the courtroom. It needs to be settled in the ring. We're going to do this the way it was done once before. The E1 Climax will take place within two promotions, Block Havok and Block WBPW. The two blocks 1st and 2nd Place winners will collide at a joint Pay Per View aptly titled Collision, just like the old EBW event. We have special conditions being worked out, but more importantly, we have bigger stakes than just a trophy and bragging rights. If we win, WBPW will not be able to claim anymore of the EBW legacy that we hold dear. If we lose, they will not only own that claim, but they will get a shot at the Havok World Championship, the successor to the EBW World Championship.
---
Tommy Dukes: So there you have it! It looks like Havok and WBPW will finally have a proper confrontation in the ring, just like we like it in Havok! It's time to put up or shut up, and prove to the wrestling world which promotion is worth a damn! Don't miss it! The E1 Climax is coming!
The Angel Residence
The Star Prince sits at his computer with Star Bird perched on his shoulder. Star Bird leaves him a "present" so Tack shoos him out of a window. Trevor Mach comes in looking bloody and beaten. He holds up his phone and presses a button, with begins a live audience clapping session.
Tack Angel: Trevor, what happened? You look like a beaten pinata. Who beat the candy out of you?
Trevor Mach: Some guy popped off in the movie theater, and I had to be totally heroic big time. You COULD have been brave and helped, but instead you hid in your Star Lair like the little pig in the straw house, who ran away from the dragon. My head hurts, so I don't know if I have that right, but it's in the Bible I think.
Tack Angel: What are you talking about? You didn't invite me to the movie.
Trevor Mach: ...Alright, so I didn't go to the movies, I went to an underground fight club! You happy?! You got it out of me!
Tack Angel: I didn't want to! Why more fighting though? Don't we do that enough?
Trevor Mach: I NEVER STOP! I've got a reputation to uphold, and besides I'm the King of Clash....which means I'm a bad ass!
Tack Angel: Are you having an existential crisis....again...again?
Trevor Mach: It's better to burn out than to fade away Tack!
Tack Angel: I don't even know what you mean by that.
Trevor Mach: Of course not, cause YOU'RE not brave!
Tack Angel: I am too! Look! I have less than 10% battery life left on my laptop, and I'm just now starting an e-mail.
Trevor Mach: ...Alright fine, I take it back...that's brave as shit.
Tack Angel: That's right.

Jeff Andonuts Office
Jeff Andonuts is swirling around a beaker when Lady M's kicks the door in.
Lady M's: WHAT THE FUCK JEFF?!
Jeff Andonuts: AH!
Lady M's: You made a pact with them?! Why?
Jeff Andonuts: It was the best option available, so we're taking a gamble. Besides, Ness and Paula are my friends, and they really helped you guys out during that situation with Poochyfud and Stuart remember?
Lady M's: NO ONE REMEMBERS THAT!
Jeff Andonuts: Oh right.
Lady M's: Those bitches over there jumped ship and then picked a fight! I was MORE than winning to reciprocate, and then you pulled the rug out from under me! You told them you'd keep me out of Onett?! You and what fucking army!?
Jeff Andonuts: ...I'll give you a bonus for every day you DON'T go to Onett during the E1?
Lady M's: Dammit....my weakness....greed. I don't know if it's worth it!
Jeff Andonuts: I WOULD have consulted you like I did Degrees, but you gave up your position! In fact, you made sure there was nobody in charge of your division.
Lady M's: It's the wild west, and that's the way we like it.
Jeff Andonuts: All the same, the title is still something I have a major say in, and if you want your #1 Contender match, you're going to have to play ball.
Lady M's: I'll kick you in the balls. How does that sound?
Jeff Andonuts: ...Very unpleasant obviously.
Lady M's: Huh...Trevor likes it.
Jeff Andonuts: Not surprised.
Lady M's: FINE! I'LL DO IT! FUCK YOU! FINE! FUCK YOU!
Lady M's kicks the door open the other way, tearing it off the hinge.
Jeff Andonuts: ...I'm proud that she's getting her anger in check.
Outside Kinniku Mike's House
Kinniku Mike and Amigo are sitting outside, with Mike drinking away his sorrows while Amigo leans against the light pole eating a sandwich.
Amigo: You uh...doing a lot of drinking this morning huh?
Kinniku Mike: Yeah? So what? All the loves of my life have left me. Booze is all I have left!
Amigo: ...Yeah alright.
Kinniku Mike: Don't try and stop me!
Amigo: Didn't plan on it big guy.
Kinniku Mike: I mean suuure, we're the champs, but what good is it if I can't place the belt seductively on my naked sexual conquests and add them to my photo collection?
Amigo: ...Make sure not to get the belts switched up alright? I don't want any part of that.
Suddenly a range rover pulls up across the street, with Troy and Lukie coming out with Momo Miyuki, Mike's ex-wife.
Kinniku Mike: ...Momo-chan?
Momo Miyuki: Just here to get the rest of my stuff Mike, no need to talk.
Amigo: Hey Momo.
Momo Miyuki: Go home Amigo.
Amigo: I think Momo is with Lukie and Troy now.
Kinniku Mike: Yeah, the Strong Tits aren't blind Amigo.
Amigo: Just saying.
Troy: Well look at these two losers!
Lukie: Haha! What a pathetic sight!
Amigo: Speaking of pathetic, it's the Alpha Betas.
Lukie: Amigo? Wearing the singlet out in public eh? No time to change or is that just a onesie. Does it come in men's?
Amigo: I think you come in men enough for all of us.
Troy: The fuck he just say?
Lukie: I-I think you better come and...come and....
Troy: Come and say that to his face!
Kinniku Mike: Excellent execution.
Amigo: You're doing terrific.
Lukie: So, it really sucks about you and Momo Mike haha!
Kinniku Mike: What's it to you punk?
Lukie: Just saying, it sucks that you're going through a divorce with her, and if you were to say, get into a big fight right now, you'd probably lose even more of your shit to alimony.
Kinniku Mike: If you were ever in a real fight, you might not be so eager for another.
Lukie: What's that?
Kinniku Mike: You heard me. The Strong Tits are single and lonely, but can still kick your ass.
Lukie: That's it! SHIRT'S OFF!
Kinniku Mike: He takes his shirt off, but leaves his shades on.
Amigo: What sort of backwards pageantry is that?
Kininku Mike: You want to fight or play me in poker? Wait a minute, look at that body hair or lack thereof.
Amigo: So finely sculpted. You look like a 12 year old girl.
Lukie: Oh, you're in for it now! We're gunning for you bastards. Troy and I are on a whole other level now! We'll do this in the ring!
Amigo: ...We're literally shaking.
Lukie: You have NO IDEA what you're getting yourselves into! I'm into Yoga now, and Troy has started Cross-Fit!
Amigo: You can cross fuck off.
Kinniku Mike: Cross fart.
Amigo: ...Good one Mike.
Troy and Lukie: THIS ISN'T OVER!
Amigo: Jinx, you owe me a coke.
Lukie: ....I'll never buy you a coke.
Kinniku Mike: Well that made me feel better.

Tommy Dukes: It's me again. I'm not going to do a comparison today. I just don't wanna do it every time. It's tough to find good ones. We cut A LOT of staff thanks to Jeff's return, so I'm just....I'm just tired trying to keep up with all of this. What's that Steve? I got a massive raise? Since when? No, I haven't been able to go home for like a week! Smell me Steve! I haven't had a shower! SMELL ME! Well then, I'm Tommy Dukes, the Mr. Moneybags of Wrestling apparently, with a wrestling update!

Tack Angel is sewing a new Star Prince costume when Trevor Mach comes in.
Tack Angel: Hey, you don't look beat up this time.
Trevor Mach: I was just down at the bar, that WE own by the way, and Tali was telling me how well it's doing, now that it's actually open all the time like it's supposed to be.
Tack Angel: Oh nice.
Trevor Mach: You sewing?
Tack Angel: Yeah, I have hobbies.
Trevor Mach: I wanted to give you something. Here.
Tack Angel: What's this?
Trevor Mach: It's golden fiddle!
Tack Angel: What? Why?
Trevor Mach: Because, I have this, a SILVER FIDDLE!
Tack Angel: ...
Trevor Mach: The point I'm trying to make here, is that I'm willing to play second fiddle to the Star Prince! Being "the other guy" in that feud with the Alliance got me thinking. It's a lot of fun having the target on someone ELSE for a change. So the King of Clash can play sidekick to the Star Prince FOR NOW, but just know that ONE DAY I'm coming for the Havok World Championship, and I WILL win the E1 Climax once again!
Tack Angel: ...Can I have that?
Trevor Mach: Have what?
Tack Angel: The silver fiddle.
Trevor Mach: Huh?
Tack Angel: I don't like gold. I like silver. Can I have the second fiddle? You can have the gold.
Trevor Mach: You're missing the point!
Tack Angel: I'm missing silver things. Can I has?
Trevor Mach: ...Yeah...you can has.
Tack Angel: ...I don't know how to play the fiddle.

Tommy Dukes: See? Here I am with last year's winner Jackson Kain! Kain, are you-
Jackson Kain: Going to win again this year? Of course! So what about the Alliance failing. So what about Camilo Ortega stealing my Television title. I don't really care about any of that anymore, this guy is about to relive his award winning 2016 with a repeat of the E1 Climax. You all remember right? I was the first to thwart Void, I beat him for the Climax, and then I took the World Championship. The company was more than happy to have me as the ace back then, but now they've traded me for the older model. I'll handle it though. When I win another E1 Climax, I will be the ace again, and the price of my autograph is going to skyrocket!
Tommy Dukes: I was going to ask if you were going to eat all that?
Jackson Kain: ...No...have it.
Tommy Dukes: Thanks buddy!

Trevor Mach: How about we take everything else off and leave the boots on?
Amy Angel: TREVOR?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!
Trevor Mach: Shh! Tack's putting the kids to bed!
Amy Angel: Well you scared me!
Trevor Mach: I'm like always here. You figure you'd be used to it by now.
Amy Angel: And yet...here we are.
Trevor Mach: Hey...Amy...I have a VERY important question for you.
Amy Angel: What? Why are you getting so close.
Trevor Mach: Amy, do you mind if I finger you?
Amy Angel: WHAT?!
Trevor holds up a finger that is drawn to look like a little Amy.
Trevor Mach: *voicing finger Amy* Hi, I'm the girl that lives in Tack's house and cooks dinner for Trevor!
Amy Angel: ...
Trevor Mach: I was going to make this a new thing I do. I'm going to finger various people in promos!
Amy Angel: ...Call it something else.
Trevor Mach: Why? Oh...OH! AHAHAHA! Oh man! I totally-I totally didn't even! Can you imagine! I mean, why would I ever come on to you like that!
Amy Angel: Right, well-
Trevor Mach: I mean, compared to Tali you're UGL-
Tack comes in minutes later.
Tack Angel: Alright Trevor, I- Amy? Where's Trevor?
Amy Angel: It's a mystery.
Tack Angel: Why is there a Trevor shaped hole in the patio glass? Was Tali over here?
Amy Angel: Nope.
Tack Angel: We were going to play Boggle!
Amy Angel: ...
Tack Angel: Well...this BOGGLES me! AHAHAHAHAHA!
Trevor Mach: TACK HELP ME! SHE THREW ME OFF THE EDGE! I'M GOING TO DIE!
Tack Angel: AH!

Havok News Update
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the guy getting hyped for E1...of Wrestling, and yeah, I'm excited for the E1. The hype is real! We're all getting excited for this year's outing. We all have purpose this year, as the company's reputation is also on the line. The land of the Renegades will collide with Onett's chosen promotion WBPW at the E1 Collision event, that is officially being announced as taking place on the beaches of Summers. We'll end the Summer at Summers....yes.
Havok and WBPW Present: E1 Collision

Firebrand X is seen standing with Arremer X, his machine counterpart turned super hero...
Firebrand X: The invitation was extended you know. You've won this tournament in the past.
Arremer X: That's not my purpose. It never was. My original purpose was to copy your purpose. That spot belongs to you.
Firebrand X: I've spent a lot of time wondering if my best days were behind me.
Arremer X: You rose incredibly fast. The first of your kind, with the hybrid style that confused an entire roster and forced them to step up accordingly. You changed the game, but the game caught up. You just need to change the game all over again.
Firebrand X: Easier said than done.
Arremer X: I watched your work in Edo. I know you have some new tricks. Don't hold back. I have to go now, I'm hearing that the police might need some help. A man is hanging onto the edge of the apartment building of Tack Angel and Trevor Mach.
Firebrand X: ...It could be either one of them. They live a cartoon life. Is that Ortega down there?
Camilo Ortega is seen around the corner speaking with Father Sergio before walking off...
Firebrand X: Ortega.
Camilo Ortega: *takes off hat* Hello my friend.
Firebrand X: I wanted to talk to you, as luck would have it I just got done talking to Arremer X about the same thing.
Camilo Ortega: The E1?
Firebrand X: Yes.
Camilo Ortega: My path doesn't lead through the E1 this year. I have another calling.
Firebrand X: What?
Camilo Ortega: Father Sergio and I are doing special work for another friend in Havok. The church is capable of a wide reach we wouldn't otherwise have.
Firebrand X: Is that really more important than the E1? It's the biggest tournament of the year.
Camilo Ortega: I just won The Golden tournament, and I claimed the Television Championship. My path is clear to me.
Firebrand X: So be it. This E1 belongs to me then.
Camilo Ortega: Why is it important to you that I join?
Firebrand X: We've been through a lot you and I. You came at me first, and then later, I turned on you. We've both had our dances with the darkside, but I know that through it all, you've been the toughest rival I've ever had. I want to always challenge myself against the best.
Camilo Ortega: Never say never Firebrand. Our paths will converge again my friend.
Los Tiburon is suddenly seen bursting out of the church.
Los Tiburon: RAAAAAAA!!!! TIME TO FUCKING GRAPPLE!
Camilo Ortega: I don't recall seeing Tiburon in there. I thought Sergio was the only....person...in...
Firebrand X: ....No way.
Jeff Andonuts Office
Jeff Andonuts: Alright, so after balancing the books, and using the power of SCIENCE and a time machine to borrow a large sum of money from myself in the future, I can safely say that Havok is back in the black!
Degrees: We were losing money?
Jeff Andonuts: Well, I might have used a lot of our finances to create a black hole making device.
Degrees: ...isn't that embezzlement?
Jeff Andonuts: ...No...no I don't think so.
Gordon Cole: COFFEE TIME!
Jeff Andonuts: Director Cole? What are you doing here?
Gordon Cole: IT APPEARS MY TIME WORKING WITH YOU FINE GENTLEMEN HAS NOT COME TO AN END! THE STRANGE EVENTS IN SATURN CITY SEEM TO ALWAYS INVOLVED THIS PLACE, SO FOR NOW I'M HERE TO STAY! DON'T WORRY, I'LL BE EASY TO WORK WITH CHAMP! THAT'S SHORT FOR CHAMPION BY THE WAY!
Degrees: ....I liked it better when we used to be Power Rangers.

Havok Training Center
A lovelorn Kinniku Mike walks in, looking to work out and shake off the rejection. He finds a shaky Trevor Mach smoking and doing chin ups, looking like he hasn't slept in days.
Trevor Mach: TIT MAN!
Kinniku Mike: Trev?! The hell man?! What are you doing?
Trevor Mach: Getting in shape for the E1 mother trucker! BEEEYAH!
Kinniku Mike: You look terrible!
Trevor Mach: No, I FEEL terrible!
Kinniku Mike: You having some trouble buddy?
Trevor Mach: Yes! No! I don't know! I'm just doing shit! What about you? You look miserable!
Kinniku Mike: Just doing a lot of thinking, about love and loss.
Trevor Mach: Cheer up Mike. There is someone out there for everyone! In some cases, their are more than one someones for one person. We call that the jackpot.
Kinniku Mike: Yeah? Think back on that. When has that worked out for you?
Trevor Mach: Well, I have a good reason. My dick turns women heel.
Kinniku Mike: What?!
Trevor Mach: It's true! Every woman I have sex with becomes evil!
Kinniku Mike: But what about Tali?
Trevor Mach: ESPECIALLY TALI!
Kinniku Mike: Huh...maybe there is something to this dick curse...maybe I have it too!
Trevor Mach: Yeah yeah, I'm bored talking about it. I'm going to go do some Cross Fit.
Kinniku Mike: Are you crazy?! Do you want to be a ticking timebomb?
Trevor Mach: ...
Kinniku Mike: MORE of a ticking time bomb?!
Trevor Mach: It's true that morons who do cross fit are accident prone as hell, BUT in the mean time I'm going to look RIPPED! Besides, I got this bottle of prescription pills, so even when I AM hurt, I can pretend that I'm not!
Kinniku Mike: You're overdoing it.
Trevor Mach: You know Mike, I've been addicted to pain killers for 7 years, but today...that all changes....because today marks 8 years! NOM NOM NOM!
Kinniku Mike: UUU! I don't like doing stuff with you, it's always stupid!

Razorblade: This E1 is as good as mine. I mean why even bother interviewing the others? No seriously, where are you going! GET BACK HERE! DON'T RUN!
Firebrand X: I return with purpose...and a new mask. This one won't splinter into my eyes if I take a bad bump. Shiryu had me thinking about my eyes. I will win the E1.
Takumi Inui: I have come back to test myself and my limits against the best in the world. My original dream to give dreams to others still stands, but I've caught the wrestling bug, and I must conquer this battlefield.
Dragon Shiryu: Athena has given me back my sight, and another chance to battle the darkness of Hades. As a Ring Saint, my quest will be to win this E1 for Athena.
Jackson Kain: 2016 was the Year of Action Jackson! I won this E1 and I became the Havok World Champion. HISTORY! WILL! REPEAT! ITSELF!
Subculture: Don't listen to him or Razorblade. Don't listen to any of them. This is every man for himself, and in that situation, no one hits harder or fights more ferociously than the Supreme Subculture.
Trevor Mach: I've been living in excess. My mind and body have been a wreck. Shit's been all twisted, but that's the way I like it. I feed on the chaos, and I'm ready to push it to the limit 80's style!
Tack Angel: The Star Prince is here, the Havok World Champion. I have the chance to make history, by winning the E1 while holding the Havok World Championship. Of course, the odds are stacked against me with this huge Block and the Block from WBPW. We're looking at a confrontation with WBPW at Collision no matter what, and I've been told not to escalate it and to do this all by the book, but I'm illiterate. I know how much they want to take from the Star Prince's royal family, and how much they want this title. It's not going to happen. They want me to stay down, roll over, and hand them what I have. The last person that told me to stay down.....I didn't.

-Christina Angel came back from some hard losses with a good win over Miyuki in the opener. She announced that she would love nothing more than to challenge the WBPW Women's Champion at E1 Collision.
-Firebrand X narrowly won an amazing E1 opener over Dragon Shiryu. Both men had just come back from Japan with new tricks up their sleeves. X won with the Fireslide, a landslide...but down by Firebrand...so Fireslide.
-Trevor Mach was able to out 80's the action star Jackson Kain in the next match of the E1, losing a tooth to the Shadow Kick, but staying on his feet long enough to hit the Burning Machismo, keeping Kain down for the 1-2-3.
-The Mach Women teamed up to take on Champ Rose Mulligan and Kelly Steele in the next match. A heated grudge match that saw M's deliver another humiliating loss to Steele with the Rolling M's.
-In a striking encounter, the returning Takumi Inui beat out Subculture.

-Main event saw the Star Prince thwart the angry man from the north Razorblade. Intense E1 match, with Tack Angel using the new finisher he recently learned from Poo's teacher the Star Master, called the StarStorm Neo. 1-2-3! Star Prince earns his E1 points to close the show.

Cliff overlooking Summers
Lady M's pulls up to the cliff on her motorcycle, lighting cigarette while looking down at Summers Arena, where she we will challenge Rose Mulligan for the Havok Lady Renegades Championship. Thoughts of anger and revenge swirl as she decides not to light the cigarette, instead opting to drive through the city, soaking in the neon, and flashing back to moments where Rose Mulligan tried to hurt her, even taking away her mother, and trying to paralyze her daughter. She looks back further, remembering the times she wore the more colorful garb of M's Style, working her way through the reality show to become a pioneer for the women wrestlers, and the hardships that have come since, but also the good things. Her own changes from rebel, to leader, to wife, to destroyer, and back again.
The night doesn't help the intense heat coming from the air and motorcycle, but M's continues to drive aimlessly, thinking back to how she got to this point. She thinks about what is really important to her, and what her attitude has given her and cost her. She pulls up outside of the motorcycle club of her father Harley Rex...
Harley Rex: Daughter? Shit, I thought I heard your chopper roaring through, but I couldn't believe it. Why would my little "princess" come and see me?
Lady M's: Bloody Rose.
Harley Rex: Oh yeah, it sucks what that bitch did. I guess I always liked my women a little traitorous. Runs in the family it seems. I guess that Mach dumbass and I got a few things in common.
Lady M's: What I did was different. What she did, I'm not planning on forgiving. I want to know more about her protege Rose Mulligan.
Harley Rex: She came from around here. We already know what she's capable of.
Lady M's: I'm not so sure. She's too well connected. How did she get Bloody Rose to not only train her, but side with her over her own blood? For a long time, I've thought there was more to this bitch than meets the eye, and I want to find out something important. If she goes down, just who behind the scenes might I be pissing off?
Harley Rex: Heh. Maybe I know more than I'm letting on princess, or maybe I don't. If I did though, you might want to ask why I'm not telling you.
Lady M's: ...
Harley Rex: Have your match, but if you're thinking of taking it further, might I offer you ONE, just ONE piece of proper advice from father to daughter. Leave it alone. Don't take it any farther than you have to.
Lady M's: The hell am I hearing? This coming from "The King" Harley Rex? I thought you were a bad ass.
Harley Rex: *sigh* You're not going to like where this takes you kid. I made a promise to Bloody Rose, and it's the one promise I've kept in my whole life. You'll find out one of of two ways how this is going to end, but one of those ways isn't through me.
Lady M's: Have it your way old man. I'm out of here.
Harley Rex: Stop by more often. I don't hate it when you come around.
Lady M's: That makes one of us.
Harley Rex: Heh...that's my girl.
In another part of the city, Rose Mulligan is hitting the heavy bag, screaming as she does, with tears streaming down her face...
Bloody Rose: What's gotten into you?!
Rose Mulligan: I'M TIRED OF THIS GAME! I'm better than her! She's washed up, and it's my time now!
Bloody Rose: People who bitch about their time never get their time. Just kick ass, make her bleed, beat her, and THEN worry about the time.
Rose Mulligan: Easy for you to say. In your time you were the best of the best, and now you're the matriarch of a three generation dynasty!
Bloody Rose: I don't care about any of that. I sided with you in this Rose. You wanted me to make a choice and I did.
Rose Mulligan: I HATE HER! THAT BITCH! SH-SHE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW! SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER! I'LL MAKE HER REMEMBER THO-
Bloody Rose: You'll do no such thing! You will win the match, and you will leave the rest alone! You hold on to that title, and keep being Champion. THAT is what you're going to do in this match. Understand?
Rose Mulligan: ...Are you going to be there?
Bloody Rose: ...I'll be watching the both of you, like I always have been.
Rose Mulligan: .....

Amigo's House
Amigo sits alone eating chips, glaring at his lamp...
Amigo: ...I know you're watching me lamp.
Kinniku Mike: HEY AMIGO!
Amigo: LAMP! I mean...I mean...Mike, what are you doing here?
Kinniku Mike: ...I have no where else to go.
Amigo: ...I don't care.
Kinniku Mike: Come on World Warrior, we've got to go!
Amigo: Where are we going? I don't want to go to Tiddy McBiggles, that club is a dirty secret you should have kept to yourself.
Kinniku Mike: We are going to get ahead of the E1 Tour and catch them in Winters! I threw down the challenge, and the Alpha Betas are going to face us for the titles!
Amigo: WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! I don't want to do that!
Kinniku Mike: Face the Alpha Betas?
Amigo: No, go to Winters. It's cold as balls, at least as cold as my balls are going to be. Plus Mike.....shrinkage....think about that.
Kinniku Mike: For once...it won't be about scoping out some ring rat tail. They called us out, and we have a job NO a DUTY to defend our honor and these titles! We're like, the best generation Havok has ever had! Let's go back to proving that.
Amigo: Alright....ALRIGHT...I LI-
Kinniku Mike: And THEN we smash some ring rats! UUUUuuuuu!!!
Amigo: Right....right. Let's just go.
Lamp: ...So...you're on to me eh Amigo?
Highway outside of Summers
Dance with the Dead - Kickstart My Heart Remix
More of the Renegade are making it into the city for the big E1 show. Trevor Mach is making his way down in his classic Testarossa, driving with sunglasses at night...as per usual...
Trevor Mach: ...Oh neon Summers, the last bastion of the 80's in this world. I just wish I could see more of it, but I just can't take off my aviators...that just wouldn't be right. Whoops! I'm on the wrong side of the road! HAHA! Good thing Tack isn't in the car or he'd of died right there! Wait...what is that?
A white Toyota 86 quickly gains on the Mach mobile, drifting into the turn with effortless ease...
Trevor Mach: You glorious bastard, you want to throw down with me? Wait, do I street race? Time to find out! AHAHA!
Through the twists and turns of the downhill slope, the two cars race neck and neck, passing by a cop car along the way.
Cop #1: WHOA! They are going WAY TOO FAST!
Cop #2: No no, leave them be.
Cop #1: But, they're endangering the other drivers on the road and-
Cop #2: DAMMIT, THIS IS A STREET RACE! IT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN ALL OF THAT!
Cop #1: NO, IT ACTUALLY ISN'T!
Cop #2: Well....TOO BAD I THREW THE KEYS OUT THE WINDOW!
Cop #1: DICK! I'M TELLING MOM!
Cop #2: YOU BETTER NOT!
The 86 begins to make gains on the Testarossa, eventually dipping into the ditch on the side of the road to gain traction while wrapping around a sharp turn to take the lead.
Trevor Mach: SICK! Alright, so you've got moves, but I've got the 80's and the 80's say FUCK PHYSICS!
Trevor's Testarossa hops off the ground Mach 5 style and rides up the front of a semi, down the back of it, and off the end, getting him nowhere closer to regaining the lead, but at least looking cool. The 86 loses out in speed, but the way it handles the turns keeps it slightly ahead as they approach the city limits. Neck and neck, the two vehicles give it their all, but eventually the stress wears on the Testarossa, and a tire blows, with Trevor having to readjust, going off the road, and ramping up through the Welcome to Summers sign. Somehow he is followed by a trail of explosions. The 86 pulls up to the Testarossa.
Trevor Mach: AHAHA! THAT WAS THE TITS!
Takumi Inui: I agree. I had fun.
Trevor Mach: TAKUMI! DUDE YES! THAT WAS AWESOME! We have GOT to do that on the way back home!
Takumi Inui: Agreed.
Tack Angel: ...I think....I think I'll take a bus....or a plane...in that case.
Trevor Mach: TACK?! What are you doing in my backseat!?
Tack Angel: I WAS SLEEPING! WAS! WAS BUT NEVER AGAIN!
Trevor Mach: Oh yeah. Ha! My bad dude!
Tack Angel: I threw up back here...and you deserve that.

6. Havok Lady Renegades Championship: Rose Mulligan(c) beat Lady M's via DQ
-Last year's E1 winner Jackson Kain beat Subculture in a battle of the rudos, with Kain using his split legged low blow to avoid the KO Punch, and followed it up with the Shadow Kick and the pin.
-The match between the Bad Man and the Dragon brought the house down. A bloody brawl that saw Shiryu escape the Burning Machismo and block the Macha Ye and Knee Trigger, hitting his finisher the Rozan Shoryu-Ha to score a big win over the King of Clash.
-The Alpha Betas demolished the team of Mystic Brave in the tag match break between E1 bouts. Troy and Lukie made it clear that they have reached a new peak, and they're ready to take on the Weekend Wrecking Crew.
-Firebrand X took on Razorblade in a hard hitting brawl. The big guy from the north tried to topple X, but his momentum was too much, as the new Fireslide finisher from Firebrand lead to to the victory.
-The biggest upset of the night saw the Mt. Akina Downhill Master Takumi Inui defeat the Star Prince, Havok World Champion Tack Angel. An amazing match that ended in a huge flurry of kicks. Tack missed his big high kick, and took a heart punch, staggering him long enough for the Crimson Smash and the pin. Takumi and Firebrand X now lead the pack in the Havok Block with 4 points thanks to their wins over the Bad Dudes.
-The main event would see Lady M's challenge for the Lady Renegades Championship against Rose Mulligan, the woman who has conquered the division. Hope Mach and Christina Angel kept Momo and Kelly Steele away from the ring, keeping this a fair title bout. A back and forth heated battle, Rose was on the ropes, but kept her distance to thwart any momentum M's would gain. A smart and methodical strategy to wear down the multi-time champion looked to be working at first, but the frustration built, and before long, M's was more concerned about getting to Rose then she was winning the title. The referee tried to regain control, but M's pushed her out of the way and grabbed a chair, belting away at Rose, getting revenge, but losing her chance at the title due to DQ. She continued to hit the bloody Rose, until...well Bloody Rose herself came out...
Bloody Rose: STOP! DON'T DO IT TALI!
Lady M's: WHY SHOULDN'T I?! HUH?! WHY THE FUCK SHOULDN'T I?!
Bloody Rose: BECAUSE SHE'S YOUR SISTER!
Lady M's: ...WHAAAAAA-

Jeff Andonuts Office
Gordon Cole is sitting at the desk with Jeff Andonuts and Degrees. Across from them is a very confused looking Dougie Mach...
Gordon Cole: .....
Dougie Mach: .....
Gordon Cole: .....
Dougie Mach: ....Are you-
Gordon Cole: HOW IS YOUR COFFEE?
Dougie Mach: WHOA! It's-uh-it's fine.
Gordon Cole: WOULD YOU LIKE SOME PIE?! COMES STRAIGHT FROM MOONSIDE, BEST DAMN PIE IN THIS OR ANY DIMENSION IN MY OPINION!
Dougie Mach: No...I'm fine. Didn't you have questions for me?
Gordon Cole: I JUST HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU IF YOU DON'T MIND!
Dougie Mach: *sigh* Is it about a job with Havok?
Jeff Andonuts: ...I wouldn't count on that.
Dougie Mach: ...Oh.
Gordon Cole: FROM WHAT I HEAR, YOU REMEMBER THE EVENTS SURROUNDING RUFUS POOCHYFUD AND STUART, AND THEIR ATTEMPT TO TRIGGER SOMETHING CALLED A "SANCTUM"!
Dougie Mach: Oh that? Yeah, I do remember that. No one else seems to. Like, they have a vague recollection of it, but it's like it was simply glossed over. Something big was happening and then suddenly it wasn't. It's like the world went on without it.
Gordon Cole: EXACTLY!
Dougie Mach: But then Jeff and the others were saying it had to do with the black hole again, so they made another one to stop that once and for all.
Gordon Cole: ...AND YET?
Dougie Mach: And yet...I DO remember it. I wasn't even there for it, but I see it, like I'm outside of it. It's like a dream, like we're all living inside of a dream.
Jeff Andonuts: You came into my office weeks ago ranting and raving just before this happened. Do you remember that now? You didn't when we asked before.
Dougie Mach: Because...because it hadn't happened yet, but then I had the dream, and there it was, the events played out just like you said they would.
Jeff Andonuts: Sounds like a Sanctum to me. Dream like moments that create some sort of reality changing events. Still trying to figure it out.
Gordon Cole: I'VE SEEN THIS SORT OF THING BEFORE! TELL US WHAT YOU KNOW!
Dougie Mach: It's only bits and pieces. Rufus and Stuart got out of jail thanks to some guy named Earl. They were trying to set up the other promotions against Havok, and when that didn't work, when Ness said no to their schemes, they took it to the next level, trying to destroy Havok from within. Mercenaries...explosions...they wanted to bring down Havok arena. They were trying to trigger the Sanctum, because of what it could do. They wanted to rewrite the world, but that's not what the Sanctum is for, and they both-
Jeff Andonuts: Went back to jail, along with Earl.
Dougie Mach: No...that's not right. I mean, I think they did, but one of the three...they went somewhere else. If a Sanctum is a crisis that spawns hope, whatever this was....it was dark...it was wrong. One of them exists there now.
Gordon Cole: WELL THANK YOU! THAT ABOUT BACKS UP WHAT I HAD GATHERED! WE CALL THIS A BLUE ROSE CASE GENTLEMEN! SOMETHING WHICH-
Dougie Mach: Wait...there was something else...someone died...someone important died...in the Sanctum...they were lost to the Sanctum...
Degrees: Who was it?
Dougie Mach: ...I-I can't remember...but I know one thing....whoever they are...they're currently competing in the E1.

Havok E1 Press Conference Winters
The Renegade and Lady Renegades of Havok are sitting at an outdoor Press Conference in Winters, bundled up and wishing for that Summers heat they were lamenting not too long ago....everyone except Tack Angel, who has Penguin and Polar Bear in his DNA...he was quite comfy.
Jackson Kain: Subculture, don't give me that shit! When that alliance of your fell apart all bets were off! I'm looking out for me!
Subculture: YOU PUNCHED ME IN THE DICK!
Jackson Kain: Whatever it takes bro. Here, have an autograph.
Subculture: ...I don't want that! I'd wipe my ass with it if it weren't so damn cold.
Tack Angel: I like it!
Degrees: Calm down guys, I know it's cold, but these people are hyped to see the E1 come to Winters, and I'm sure you are as well.
Trevor Mach: I can't wait, cause I get to kick Razorblade's ass in front of his home crowd. No offense peeps, it's more of a humiliating him thing. I mean I LOVE Winters! Eh? Eh? Cheap pop?
Razorblade: You talk a lot of shit now Mach, but you're in MY world now. It's cold, and it's painful, and it hurts.
Tack Angel: I like it!
Razorblade: You've put yourself in harm's way.
Trevor Mach: Bitch, I AM harm's way!
Jeff Andonuts: Did we all forget that in some way we're all in this together, because the top 2 will take on WBPW's top 2 at E1 Collision?
Razorblade: Yes! We forgot! Who cares?!
Jeff Andonuts: *sigh* Unity? What's that? Who knows? They certainly don't...just like science.
Razorblade's Mother: Nathaniel! You watch your mouth right now!
Razorblade: MOM?! WHAAAAAAAT?!
Trevor Mach: Nathaniel?
Razorblade's Mother: I brought your grandmother here to see you, and we get this HORRIBLE attitude?!
Razorblade: Nana?! I'm sorry!
Trevor Mach: Nathaniel?! What's all this Razorblade talk when your name is Nathaniel?!
Amigo: Uh...you do know most of the wrestlers use fake names right?
Trevor Mach: Huh? Wait...what?
Amigo: Yeah...it's part of the whole package. You come up with a new name that markets you to the people. You...you really didn't know that?
Trevor Mach: Now that can't be true. You mean to tell me that Jackson Kain isn't-
Amigo: Real name Jack Carlton. That one is obvious, it's in his theme song.
Trevor Mach: But wait, what about you?
Amigo: ...You think...you think my name is actually Amigo. Like, I was born and my Mother decided to go with "Amigo" and no last name?
Trevor Mach: ...I don't judge.
Amigo: Not true, you do nothing but judge.
Trevor Mach: Well, I guess it makes sense. I mean look at the boss. Jeff Andonuts? Really? Jeff And Doughnuts?! I saw right through that one.
Jeff Andonuts: No, that's my actual name.
Trevor Mach: ...What's real? I don't know anymore.
Amigo: Oh crap he's staring off. Trevor, come back! Hey! Hey Trevor look, have a sandwich.
Trevor Mach: ...Sandwich.
Amigo: Close one. We got smoke coming from his brain. Why is it whenever you talk to this guy about anything other than 80's movie trivia he has an existential break down!?
Degrees: How about we just wrap up this press conference, it's obviously going nowhere. Remember to catch the E1, where you'll see more of the Havok Block AND a Havok World Tag Team Championship match between the Weekend Wrecking Crew and The Alpha Betas! Let's get inside, this Degrees is already "below zero"......eh? Get it? Cause my-let's just go. It's cold out here.
Tack Angel: I Like it!

Saturn City Penitentiary
Gordon Cole and Degrees make their way down a long hallway to a room separated by glass. They have two seats on their side, with one seat on the other. A figure approaches from a door on the other side, dressed in orange and clad in cuffs....
Degrees: Earl. Yep, that's the guy.
Gordon Cole: HELLO EARL, THANK YOU FOR SEEING US TODAY! WE APPRECIATE IT!
Earl: You don't have to yell, I can hear yall just fine on this side.
Degrees: No, he really does have to yell apparently.
Gordon Cole: WE WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS-
Earl: I know what you want, so just pipe down! You want the motive? You want to know the hows and whos and whys. I've done this dance many times before, but I was the one getting the answers, and the people giving them to me didn't turn out living too much longer than that.
Degrees: Spare us the details. If you have something to tell us, you should do so.
Earl: I might as well tell you. I have nothing better to do, but rot in a cell until I die. You people toppled something huge you know? It started in 2016 when that new guy took over the country. Some guys on the inside blamed the "Renegade" mindset. I didn't much care, until it occurred to me just who you people were and what you had done. I did my research and planned a little revenge.
Degrees: Revenge? For what? We're a wrestling company!
Earl: Oh, I think we both know you're more than that. I know what the Blue Rose is Cole, so I know why you're hanging around them. You know it too. Trouble of a certain nature seems to follow the people in Havok. It used to go by a different name remember? It was in 2006 that you lurched forth and created the chaos that you have. I was the clean up crew once upon a time, until an incident in the town on Onett. My daughter was there that day...the day it all started to burn. She didn't make it. She died, because of people like you. Because of people like Trevor Mach, Tack Angel, Ness...THE LIST GOES ON! Your boss was there too Degrees. He didn't stop them from killing my little girl! THEY TORE HER APART IN FRONT OF ME, AND I COULDN'T DO A DAMN THING TO STOP THEM!
Degrees: .....
Earl: Years later, I pulled myself out of the whisky bottle, and took the gun out of my mouth. I started working black ops, and I rather enjoyed it. It felt good to hurt others, it took away my hurt. The last guy in charge didn't really care about the rules, and that suited me. We were Renegades in our own way. I slipped into the darkness just fine and found purpose, but you wouldn't leave me alone. I crossed paths with Trevor Mach and Tack Angel, I even worked with them a little bit, but then they screwed me over and I read up on them while planning to take them out. I figured out their involvement in the Onett incident, but then I dug deeper, and learned about a secret study titled "Sanctum".
Gordon Cole: TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT SANCTUM IF YOU PLEASE! I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE THAT.
Earl: A place between light and darkness, that's the way I interpreted it. A realm all it's own, very otherworldly. I don't much care about that shit, but I figured out what it could do. The emotions that lead to the Sanctum, can be used to change reality. I could have my daughter back.
Degrees: That's what this was all about? That's why you released Poochyfud and Stuart?
Earl: My daughter? She's everything to me. OF COURSE THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT! YOU DON'T KNOW THE PAIN OF LOSING THE ONLY LIGHT IN YOUR HEART! You store your innocence in your child. They anchor you to the goodness, even when you stray to the dark. I lost my anchor. I didn't realize that the Sanctum could be capable of the same darkness I feel. It felt...it felt like home.
Degrees: What exactly happened? We're having trouble remembering. We think it had to do with the black hole so-
Earl: THEY ARE A DISTRACTION! Time and space be irrelevant the moment I gazed into the Sanctum! I saw reality for what it really is. You all couldn't handle it.
Degrees: We were there?
Earl: We attacked your "base" and I threatened the families of Trevor Mach, Tack Angel, and Ness. Yeah, I reached out to WBPW in order to get him where I wanted him. I wanted those responsible to show me how to manifest the Sanctum and fix their mistake before I killed them. Poochyfud and Stuart were a means to an end. I needed their resources since I lost all of mine.
Degrees: Angel and Mach don't know how that happened anymore than we do or you do.
Gordon Cole: .....
Earl: I think HE knows. It didn't matter if they knew. It happened. We all stared into it, bloody and battered. We lost someone to that darkness too, so it wasn't a total loss.
Degrees: Was it Poochyfud or Stuart?
Earl: Does it matter? They're locked up in here too right....or are they?
Degrees: One more thing Earl.
Earl: Hurry up, I'm getting bored.
Degrees: Who died? Who was killed in this incident?
Earl: Heh. I don't have all the answers. Sorry that I'm not sorry. I'm leaving. Don't come here again.
Degrees: That could have gone better.
Gordon Cole: WE LEARNED A LOT FROM HIM!
Degrees: He seems to think you know more than you're letting on.
Gordon Cole: I'M AFRAID THAT'S CLASSIFIED TO THOSE OUTSIDE OF THE BLUE ROSE TASK FORCE.
Degrees: Of course.
Gordon Cole: WHICH IS WHY I HAVE TO MAKE YOU AN OFFICIAL MEMBER!
The Mach Residence
A knock at the door prompts Trevor Mach to answer...
Trevor Mach: Wow, you've got some guts showing up here.
Bloody Rose: *sigh* Put some damn pants on.
Trevor Mach: Not happening. Just keep your eyes up here. What do you want?
Bloody Rose: I want to talk to my daughter Trevor. Let me in.
Trevor Mach: You think after what you've done she's going to talk to you?! She'll probably try to kill you! She's not in the forgiving mood either if you're here to apologize God forgives, Tali does not.
Bloody Rose: You're not apart of this Mach! LET ME TALK TO MY DAUGHTER!
Trevor Mach: I CAN'T!
Bloody Rose: WHY NOT!?
Trevor Mach: I DON'T KNOW WHERE SHE IS!
Bloody Rose: ...Oh.
Trevor Mach: ...That's right. You still want to come in? I'm watching Tango and Cash? Bloody Rose? Where the hell did she go?
Tack Angel: What's going on?
Trevor Mach: Tack?
Tack Angel: Big hole in the wall remember?
Trevor Mach: Oh yeah.
Tack Angel: Bloody Rose seemed to be leaving in a hurry.
Trevor Mach: Well, she's looking for Tali, and she's not here.
Tack Angel: Where is she?
Trevor Mach: No idea.
Tack Angel: You don't care?
Trevor Mach: *swigs from his whisky* Of course I do, but we roll in a different way from you and Amy. She does her own thing and I do mine.
Tack Angel: My Star Sense tells me this is different though. Think about that revelation.
Trevor Mach: I'm still trying to thaw my junk after that trip to Winters. I REALLY don't want to go back for the E1.
Tack Angel: I liked it!
Trevor Mach: I mean sure, Tali found out she has a sister, and this goes a long way to proving your theory that everyone in Havok is fucking, fighting, or family.
Tack Angel: I would never put it that way, but go on.
Trevor Mach: In this situation I guess Tali would-
Tack Angel: Try to get some closure? Maybe try and settle things with her new sister?
Trevor Mach: Rose Mulligan is in the Saturn City Hospit-oh man....we gotta go!
Tack Angel: PUT SOME PANTS ON! I mean who wears at home, but still.
Mach threw on his leather jacket and shades, hopping into his Testarossa, followed by Tack, who left a note for his wife.
Tack Angel: You've been drinking. Should you really be driving?!
Trevor Mach: You want to drive?
Tack Angel: This thing? No thanks. You go ahead.
Trevor Mach: That's what I thought
The Testarossa speeds off into the night, neon lights reflecting off the chrome as they make way for the hospital...
Trevor Mach: My woman needs me Tack. I didn't even think about it. How numb are we getting to this shit? It happens all the time, but that doesn't make it any less important does it?
Tack Angel: Not when family is concerned. Glad you understand. I always found 80's Trevor to be a bit more focused then whatever the heck and a half you are all the other times.
Trevor Mach: I wear a lot of hats, but this is me man. Gotta step up and be there for Tali, and hope she hasn't killed anybody before we get there.
Tack Angel: That's righ-WAIT WHAT? KILLED?!
Meanwhile, Bloody Rose has already arrived at the hospital, running up the emergency fire stairs on the outside, towards the hospital room Rose Mulligan is staying in.
Bloody Rose: Dammit, what have I done? Don't do it Tali. Don't do it.
Back in the Testarossa, Tack is hanging on for dear life.
Tack Angel: Why do I keep getting in this car with you?!
Trevor Mach: Just hold on Star Prince! We have to get there fast!
Tack Angel: I may throw up again.
Trevor Mach: I JUST HAD THE CAR CLEANED FROM THE LAST TIME!
Tack Angel: I'm still not sorry! ....Oh who am I kidding? I'm sorry Trevor, I'll pay you back for-
Trevor Mach: We're here! Let's go!
Tack Angel: Oh thank God!
The duo jump out of the car and rush to the hospital. Momo Miyuki and Kelly Steele are standing in the way...
Momo Miyuki: I don't think so.
Kelly Steele: You're not getting in here.
Tack Angel: Well this is awkward. What do we do?
Trevor Mach: Kelly baby, why fight me, you know you can't resist my charms.
Kelly Steele: Fuck you Mach.
Trevor Mach: Yeah, that's what got us into this predicament. I've got a Heel Dick Tack.
Tack Angel: WHAT?! Listen ladies, we have to stop Lady M's from getting to Rose.
Kelly Steele: Nice try, but she couldn't have gotten in here.
Tack Angel: Unless she took the fire escape....right over there?
Kelly Steele: .....SHUT UP! LET'S GET EM MOMO!
Tack Angel: What do we do!?
Trevor Mach: We fight em Tack! It's 2017, this shit's on the table now! IT'S CRAZY!
Tack Angel: Right, and I totally respect a woman's right to-
*PUNCH!*
Tack Angel: OW! RIGHT IN THE EYE! DARN! SHOOT! BLAST! FUDGE!
Trevor Mach: Wow, you girls pissed him off!
-cut music if it's still playing-
In the hospital room Bloody Rose enters through the window, and sees Rose Mulligan asleep in the darkness....with Lady M's looming over her.
Bloody Rose: Tali, don't do this.
Lady M's: Don't do what? What do you think I'm doing?
Bloody Rose: .....
Lady M's: Do you think she knows....how easily I could just end her right now. You think she knows somewhere inside. She's screaming inside to wake up and stop me, but she can't. One too many chair shots they said? Wasn't enough for me.
Bloody Rose: I know how you must feel but-
Lady M's: You think you know how I feel? The hatred I feel for her and for you? I like a life where no fucks are given, but this....this is unacceptable. You have always filled my life with misery, and now this? You tell me I have a sister and it's HER!? After all she did, I find out that we're blood? You didn't tell me, and Harley didn't tell me. You BOTH lied to me AGAIN, LIKE USUAL, but I'm just supposed to take it? I'm not you and I'm not him. I do things MY WAY! I always have and I always will. If I wanted to kill her right now, I could.
Bloody Rose: Then why haven't you Tali?
Lady M's: Maybe I'm weighing my options.
Bloody Rose: Maybe you don't want to do it? Maybe you want family. Maybe you don't want to be alone.
Lady M's: Don't try to talk to me like a mother. You took a job in Havok just to screw with me and force our paths to cro....that's why you did it. You took the job to bring her in and force us to meet. You bitch.
Bloody Rose: I thought forcing you two to fight each other, you would realize in the ring just how much you had in common. Things didn't go the way I planned. I set myself up as a villain to you, so I could let her know that I had her back too. As far as she knows, she never had a mother or father.
Lady M's: ....She doesn't know?
Bloody Rose: Your father and I were into some dark shit at the time, and spent most of your time running away or doing your own thing. You never even noticed. We sent her somewhere where she wouldn't-
Lady M's: Turn into another me?
Bloody Rose: We've never been the parental type. Maybe we didn't know how. I'm trying right now. You can hate me forever, but don't do anything to your sister. Don't do something you'll regret.
Lady M's: What makes you think I'll regret it? Maybe I'm more like you than you realize. Maybe I don't feel a damn thing. Maybe I'm a sociopath who barely even needs a reason to take a life. Maybe this is the opportunity I've been waiting for.
Bloody Rose: I don't believe that's you. You're better than me. You're also a better mother than I have ever been. I don't know what you'd think about what your husband thinks, but what would this mean to Hope if you did this?
Lady M's: Hope.
Bloody Rose: If anything, don't do this for her.
Trevor Mach: Tali! *huff puff* Really should have taken the elevator!
Tack Angel: I tried to tell you!
Lady M's: Trevor?
Trevor Mach: Tali...my Lady M's. I don't care what Bloody Rose had to say on this subject quite frankly. She's a shit mother, but you're not. Hope wouldn't want you to do this.
Bloody Rose: I was just saying that actual-
Trevor Mach: STAY OUT OF THIS!
Lady M's: ...Trevor, you're absolutely right.
Trevor Mach: I am? I mean....I am...dammit.
Lady M's: Rose...sleep tight sister...I will allow you to wake up, and I'll make sure you realize how close you came to the end when you do. We have unfinished business. The black sheep will finish off the orphan in the ring.
Bloody Rose: Don't tell her about this Tali. Don't let her know tha-
Lady M's: That you abandoned her? I don't owe you that. I don't owe you shit. If I tell her...I tell her. That's up to me. Come on Trevor...you too Tack I guess.
Trevor Mach: Proud of you babe.
Lady M's: Why are you two all beat up?
Tack Angel: We had to fight women, and this vending machine just took my dollar and the chips are stuck. This night has just been awful.

-Switching back to past tense writing. I can't shake it.-
Bad Dudes Bar
The rough and rowdy bar of the Bad Dudes was being tended to by Lady M's tonight. During the mandatory 10pm Neon Synth marathon she went outside to take a break. She saw Trevor in the alleyway...
Lady M's: Trev?
Trevor Mach: Hey babe.
Lady M's: What are you doing out here?
Trevor Mach: ...Nothin...
Lady M's: It's looking suspicious.
Trevor Mach: ...Fine, I was...uh...I was worried about you.
Lady M's: I'm fine. We deal with this kind of shit all the time.
Trevor Mach: That's what I was saying to Tack! However, it's not cool that we just let it roll off our shoulders...not always...not this time.
Lady M's: What do you want me to do? Try to throw a family reunion?
Trevor Mach: I don't know where they'd put all the dead bodies in the bloody aftermath. No, I just figured we...uh...could talk about it?
Lady M's: We don't talk about things, it's part of why we work.
Trevor Mach: Tali, it's fighting, fucking, and FAMILY. Sometimes we have to play that role too.
Lady M's: Trevor, I appreciate that you're worried about me, but you have to trust me. I'm alright. I don't know what I'm going to do about this yet, but when I do, you'll know all about it.
Trevor Mach: ...Alright...just as long as you're alright.
Lady M's suddenly heard two engines roaring on the street in front of the bar...
Lady M's: So that's what you were really doing?
Trevor Mach: Well...half and half.
Lady M's: Another race with Takumi?
Trevor Mach: Gotta see if I can beat that 86. Wanna come with?
Lady M's: But the bar...the hell with it. Let's do this.
Lady M's smiled for the first time in a long time as she sat next to Trevor in the Testarossa. Takumi Inui noded to Trevor as the light turned green and the two speed off into the night. The two gunned it neck and neck, swerving through the traffic of Saturn City. Takumi Inui's 86 effortlessly avoided the dangers of the crowded street. Trevor focused ahead as M's rolled down the window, sticking her head out and letting the wind rush through her hair. Both vehicles rocketed out of the city and up the mountainous Saturn Pass.
Lady M's: Where is the finish line?
Trevor Mach: Top of the pass.
Lady M's: Can you even drift?
Trevor Mach: ...I've been practicing.
Lady M's: Heh. Kick some ass Mr. Mach.
Takumi shifted gears in the rhythm of his turns, an effortless maneuver for the Master of the Akina Downhill. He gunned the engine hard, and barely slowed for the turns, using his signature move of clinging to the curb to slingshot around his opponent, a difficult move for any other racer, but not for Takumi.
Trevor Mach: Ha! I gotta figure out how he does that! I got a few tricks up my though.
Lady M's: Like what?
Trevor Mach: He wants to play dirty? So can I can.
Trevor bypassed a turn instead forcing his Testarossa over the curb, ramping it and catapulting him into position beside Takumi...
Lady M's: Now that's more like it.
Trevor had added some tricks to his arsenal, but he also souped up the engine with a turbo charger, that he pushed to the limit to bypass Takumi as the two hurtled around another perilous turn.
Lady M's: I think you could see the road better without the aviators.
Trevor Mach: Yeah, but what's the fun in that? *wink*
Despite the possible deadly situation that came with riding like this with Trevor Mach, Lady M's felt completely at ease. She thought back on her past once again, like she had in Summers, but this time with more fondness for the time with the knucklehead in the driver's seat.
Takumi's methodical pace was won him many a race, but he had never raced anyone so willing to push their engine to the limit. Smoke began to billow out of the hood of the Testarossa.
Lady M's: Whoa. That doesn't look good. What are you gonna do?
Trevor Mach: I'm gonna keep on running baby.
Lady M's: Push it to the limit?
Trevor Mach: Exactly.
Mach and Takumi rushed to the finish line, where many people had gathered. Apparently, more than a few people knew about this rematch. They fought neck and neck to get to the line, and in a photo finish it appeared that they hit at the same time.
Trevor Mach: YEAH! I did it!
Kinniku Mike: Not so fast Trevor, it looked like Takumi beat you.
Amigo: No, I saw Mach win.
Kinniku Mike: I don't think so my man. The Strong Tits are very accurate.
Amigo: That makes no sense in this context Mike.
Kinniku Mike: Who do you think won Takumi?
Takumi Inui: Doesn't matter to me. I just enjoyed the race.
Trevor Mach: Same here brother.
As the two fist bumped, the engine in the Testarossa exploded...
Trevor Mach: ....Damn....I forgot the marshmallows.
Lady M's: Oh shit! Ha! We should put that out.
Trevor Mach: Nah. It's alright. A Lady I know taught me not to give a fuck sometimes.
Lady M's: Is that right?
Trevor Mach: Yep. Plus....it's insured right? Did we do that?
Lady M's: Yes, we got it insured.
Trevor Mach: Then what do I have to worry about.
Lady M's: What am I going to do with you Trevtastic?
Trevor Mach: No idea Talicious.
Trevor tries to pull Lady M's in, but she resists and pulls him instead.
Trevor Mach: The fire baby, it's gonna burn us both.
Lady M's: Good.
A kiss that soothed the ache that Lady M's felt deep down, in the place where she kept the feelings she tried not having.
Trevor Mach: ...Takumi, can you give us a ride back down?

Firebrand X: The Star Prince...Havok World Champion.
Tack Angel: That's me buddy! Everything alright?
Firebrand X: Yeah, just sizing you up.
Tack Angel: What?
Firebrand X: Trying to understand what the fuss has always been about with you. You're an unassuming guy. You're polite to a fault. I'm pretty sure you're afraid of your wife. What is the deal with you?
Tack Angel: ...Are you trying to hurt my feelings?
Firebrand X: Not at all. I'm just trying to figure it all out. I think I get it. I think I can see it. You're the ace. You're the man. You're the big shot. However, I think you're missing something that I have, an "X" factor.

-Subculture beat out Dragon Shiryu narrowly in a strikefest, when Maniac helped on the outside. The Rozan Shoryu-Ha was dodged, and Subbie took the Dragon down with the KO Punch. Subbie is finally on the E1 board with 2 points.
-Razorblade also finally scored a win, after taking out the Bad Man Trevor Mach. A bad streak continues, but with Maniac interfering once again, showing the frustration of The Supremacy. Razorblade scored the pin after a piledriver.
-Four teams assembled for a Lady Renegades Tag Team Championship bout, that would see the odds stacked highly against Momo and Kelly Steele. An all out brawl that showcased the newer team of Demon Masaki II And Dulce Reina, the Anahauc/Edo duo, who managed to shock the crowd with the surprise win after Reina hit the Sweet Driver on Diana Brooks. Reina won the match, but continued to hold onto Brooks after the match, purposely pulling her arm out of socket even though the match was over. This drew huge boos from the crowd as the masked woman taunted the other Lady Renegades and grabbed one of the titles from Demon Masaki II.
-Last year's winner Jackson Kain scored another win over the Crimson Smasher Takumi Inui. His split legged low blow opened Takumi up to the Shadow Kick and the pin.
-Huge main event saw Firebrand X give the Star Prince the fight of his life. X has been the most impressive during the E1 so far, but the new Fireslide finisher wouldn't fell the Champ, as he escaped the attempt and came back with the new StarStorm NEO for the pin and the win. Firebrand X grabbed a mic after the match.
Firebrand X: Alright...now I definitely get it, but I'm not finished yet. If you and I make it to the finals, you'd better beat your WBPW counterpart, because I want another shot.
Tack Angel: ...I'm glad we're friends again. I thought you were mad at me earler!
-Main event would see The Crew put their tag titles on the line against The Alpha Betas. With Good News Gary and Mudslide on the outside, the odds were against the champs, with the outside interference leading to Troy hitting the Fight Me IRL Punt Kick on Amigo for the pin, the win, and the Havok World Tag Team Championships. History making night, with both tag titles changing hands, and the Alpha Betas tag champs again in Havok after all these years. Despite the heavy booing and the cheap finish, Good News Inc. soaked it up like cheers.

A room is filled with light. Glass covers the floor, the ceiling, and the walls. The white light is made brighter as a man in a lab coat and face mask approached a bed surrounded by machinery. Machines keeping alive the old man laying in the bed.
Man in the lab coat: Sir, the observations have been completed. We know all we need to know, and no one knows of our involvement.
Man in Bed: ....No one?
Man in the lab coat: One of them figured it out, but he has been disposed of. He is in darkness with the other one now.
Man in Bed: ...Stuart?
Man in the lab coat: He survived.
Man in Bed: Then so do you...for now.

Jeff Andonuts Office
Jeff was looking over paperwork as Lady Renegades Champion Rose Mulligan busts into the room.
Rose Mulligan: JEFF!
Jeff Andonuts: AH! Rose, you're looking better.
Rose Mulligan: SHUT IT! How are you going to let her get away with it!?
Jeff Andonuts: What?
Rose Mulligan: Dulce Reina, that bitch is popping arms out of sockets now, and she just gets to walk away without punishment?!
Jeff Andonuts: This is coming out of left field. Haven't you tried to retire more than one of the Lady Renegades?
Rose Mulligan: That's different! This is MY division! I rule around here! I'm the Lady Renegades Champion dammit!
Jeff Andonuts: ...Uh...I'll fine her?
Rose Mulligan: YOU'LL PUT HER IN A MATCH WITH ME!
Jeff Andonuts: Are you cleared?

Bad Dudes Bar
Tack Angel was sitting at the bar, while Trevor Mach went around to grab a drink from the shelf. Both men were sporting thick mustaches...
Trevor Mach: Sure you don't want a drink?
Tack Angel: I don't drink, you know that.
Trevor Mach: Not even an appletini?
Tack Angel: ...It does sound delicious.
Trevor Mach: I gotta be honest with you.
Tack Angel: Are you usually not?
Trevor Mach: That mustache...it looks awful on you.
Tack Angel: This was your idea! YOU wanted us to get mustaches. You said, and I quote, "it's like taking a vacation from ourselves"!
Trevor Mach: Well I pull it off, but you don't.
Tack Angel: I even told you that!
Trevor Mach: Alright, so you were right for once.
Tack Angel: ...For once.
Trevor Mach: So Tali told me the Bar is making money now. We're finally going to have some cash.
Tack Angel: Great, now you can finally pay me back.
Trevor Mach: For what?
Tack Angel: Amy's family cabin! Remember? We went there for that weekend, and you just had to light up that cigar!
Trevor Mach: I DO remember that, and I also remember I wrote you a check!
Tack Angel: It bounced!
Trevor Mach: Well of course it did, I don't have a bank account!
Tack Angel: Then whose check was that!?
Trevor Mach: I borrowed one of yours.
Tack Angel: I WONDERED why the name looked scribbled out! The whole thing was shady! Amy was wanting that money.
Trevor Mach: Well it's hard to come by!
Tack Angel: Why? You just said we're making money on the bar.
Trevor Mach: Yeah, but MY pay from Havok isn't very good.
Tack Angel: It's not?
Trevor Mach: No. Why, is yours?
Tack Angel: I think I get paid really well.
Trevor Mach: How much? Wait, I got an idea. I'll write what I make, and you write what you make and we'll switch.
Tack Angel: Alright....here.
Trevor Mach: Great. Turn them over on three. 1-2-
Jeff Andonuts Office
Trevor Mach: WHAT THE FUCK JEFF!
Jeff Andonuts: Whoa!
Degrees: Calm down buddy. What seems to be the problem?
Trevor Mach: The problem?! The problem is that I get paid peanuts compared to the Star Prince!
Jeff Andonuts: You do?
Degrees: Have you renegotiated your contract every year like Tack?
Trevor Mach: What?
Degrees: Once a year we renegotiate contracts.
Trevor Mach: Yeah?
Degrees: Amy Angel negotiated a multi-year, high paying contract for Tack. What did you do?
Trevor Mach: Ignored your calls until I couldn't take it anymore and said fine whatever?
Degrees: Well there you go.
Trevor Mach: Oh yeah? Well I want MORE MONEY!
Jeff Andonuts: How much do you want?
Trevor Mach: Let me write it down!
Jeff Andonuts: I tell you what. I'm going to match what we pay Tack Angel. You're a big deal, and you sell a lot of merch, and you're a big crowd pleaser in places that don't want your head on a pike. HOWEVER, if you beat the Star Prince in the E1, I'll give you whatever you just wrote down.
Trevor Mach: HA! PERFECT! IT'S ON! LATER!
Degrees: Jeff, are you sure that's a good idea? He could have wrote any number.
Jeff Andonuts: It's fine, I know this man, and I know exactly what he wrote down. Yep, it says "1 dollar more than stupid Star Prince".
Degrees: I see.
Jeff Andonuts: We DO kind of owe him. Turns out he was one of the lowest paid Renegades.
Degrees: That guy needs some serious help.
Bad Dudes Bar
Tack Angel: Where did you go? You said you were going to the restroom, and you went missing for 2 hours.
Trevor Mach: I GOT YOU BEAT STAR PRINCE!
Tack Angel: What?
Trevor Mach: If I win in our E1 match, I'll get paid more than you!
Tack Angel: Oh! Cool! Glad you'll be getting a nice raise.
Trevor Mach: Don't act happy for me. This is a competition.
Tack Angel: No, I really am happy for you. I don't think it'll be that easy though. You and I still have to have the match, and I'm going to do everything I can to win. So, I guess we should go then.
Trevor Mach: ...Giddy up mother fucker!
Saturn Dome Parking Lot
Takumi Inui and Dragon Shiryu met up after some time and distance away...
Dragon Shiryu: It has been awhile my friend.
Takumi Inui: Yes, it has.
Dragon Shiryu: You seem to have found inner peace.
Takumi Inui: I'm getting there. What about your hunt for Hades?
Dragon Shiryu: ...I await Athena's orders on that. They are among us though. Plus, something else. Something is emanating a different kind of Cosmo.
Takumi Inui: Something I can help with?
Dragon Shiryu: Not yet. Until then, we must look forward, our rematch is coming.
Takumi Inui: And I will not hold back, however I'll attempt to not stop your heart this time.
Dragon Shiryu: ...I would appreciate that.
Lady Renegades Locker Room
Rose Mulligan was wrapping up her various injuries when...
Lady M's: Rose.
Rose Mulligan: ...Heh....the hell do you want?
Lady M's: You and I need to talk.
Rose Mulligan: Why would I ever talk to you? I spent time in the hospital because YOU couldn't beat me, so you threw a fit and battered me with that chair!
Lady M's: ...You're lucky I stopped.
Rose Mulligan: Really, and just WHY did you stop?
Lady M's: ...
Rose Mulligan: You're pathetic. Where did your fangs go? Where's the fire? You look like a confused child.
Lady M's: ...
Rose Mulligan: Out of my way.
Lady M's: Don't push me. Don't you dare ever push me again.
Rose Mulligan: ...You act tough, but I guess no matter what you "secretly" have a soft spot for family...huh sis?
Lady M's: Sis? How did you-
Rose Mulligan: I watch the product.
Havok: Renegade Nation E1 Climax 2017
Saturn Dome Outdoor, Saturn City
Renegade Television
1. E1 Climax Block Havok: Firebrand X[6] beat Jackson Kain[4] via Fireslide -> Pin
2. E1 Climax Block Havok: Subculture[4] beat Razorblade[2] via KO Punch -> Pin
3. Lady Renegades Non-Title No Rules Singles: Rose Mulligan beat Dulce Reina via Piledriver -> Pin
4. Trios: Kinniku Mike/Amigo[o]/Magnum PT beat Mudslide/Severide[x]/Takuma Tsurugi via Olympic Slam -> Pin
5. E1 Climax Block Havok: Takumi Inui[6] beat Dragon Shiryu[2] via Crimson Smash -> Pin
6. E1 Climax Block Havok: Tack Angel[6] beat Trevor Mach[2] via WRIST CLUTCH! StarStorm Neo -> Pin
-Firebrand X ensured that Jackson Kain wouldn't repeat his E1 victory with a hard fought win over him, capping off the match with the Fireslide, which has become a star killer for sure. Kain trashed the ringside after the match with Good News Gary unable to calm him down, and actually eating a Shadow Kick from the movie superstar.
-Subculture tricked his Supremacy partner Razorblade in the next match, making him think he would allow him an easy win, only to clock him with a KO Punch for the pin. I'm sure Razor will be pissed when he wakes up.
-Rose Mulligan, the Havok Lady Renegades Champion, returned from her short hospital stay to punish the Anahauc star Dulce Reina. Reina, one half of the Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions, went out of her way to put Brooks on the shelf, and that lit a fire under Mulligan, who went all out in this No Rules match to inflict damage on her, and won after the Piledriver.
-In Trios action, the Weekend Wrecking Crew reunited as a trio to take on Good News Inc. Amigo and Mike were angered after losing their titles, and showed it with a great effort. Amigo hit the Olympic Slam on Severide for the pin. After the match, the Crew stated they would be gunning for the tag and trios titles.
-Back to the the E1 matches, Takumi and Shiryu engaged in one of two show stealing performances. The rivals and friends of their generation put on a match nearly surpassing their debut performance, but the result was nearly the same in the end, with Takumi hitting the Crimson Smash on Shiryu for the win. Shiryu is slowly getting back into the grove, and I guess having your vision back can really help with that.
-Main event time, as Havok World Champion Tack Angel battled the King of Clash Trevor Mach in an explosive E1 challenge. These two always put on show stoppers, and this was no different. Late in the match, Mach seemed to injure his right knee when lifting Angel up for the Burning Machismo. Tack managed to escape and hit the WRIST CLUTCH! StarStorm Neo for the 1-2-3! The face that is the ace that is 1 out of 100 in this place beat the Bad Man to advance in the E1. We're told that Mach took it in stride....by going home and trying to beat Sonic Mania before Tack...he failed at that too.

Gordon Cole's Office
Gordon Cole was sitting behind his new desk, drinking merlot, when Tack Angel entered...
Tack Angel: You wanted to see me?
Gordon Cole: YES! PLEASE SIT DOWN! WOULD YOU LIKE SOME MERLOT? PERHAPS A STRONG BLACK CUP OF COFFEE?
Tack Angel: No thank you, I'm fine. What can I do for you Mr. Cole?
Gordon Cole: I WANT YOU TO TELL ME ABOUT THE SANCTUM!
Tack Angel: Sanctum?
Gordon Cole: I KNOW ABOUT IT, BUT I'M TRYING TO GET THE FULL PICTURE! COULD YOU FILL ME IN?
Tack Angel: Well, I'm not really sure what to say. The Sanctum was something that happened to me a few years ago. I was taken to this other place, it was like a different reality. Hard to explain. A place of strong positive and negative energy. I was taken places...in my past...and in my dreams, and there I had to fight shadows, pieces of doubt in myself. The whole thing helped me to prepare to become a father. Before that, my confidence in myself was shaken, and it's never been perfect, but since then it's always been better. Then, it happened again to Trevor, but it was different that time, it was showing him his past to remind him of what he had done, almost to prepare him for what was coming. Derek Mach hijacked the Khyron 5 Space Station and he tried sacrificing himself to undo the damage. Both times it seemed to precede a big event.
Gordon Cole: INTERESTING. THANK YOU FOR PUTTING ME IN THE PICTURE!
Tack Angel: What is this all about?
Gordon Cole: IT HAPPENED AGAIN QUITE FRANKLY, BUT TO WHOM AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE WE DON'T KNOW. IT HAS BEEN DESIGNATED A "BLUE ROSE CASE", AND I NEED TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF IT, IN THE EVENT THAT IT IS PRECEDING ANOTHER BIG EVENT!
Tack Angel: I guess it doesn't help that no one can remember what happened with that Earl incident.
Gordon Cole: A FEW PEOPLE REMEMBER! STUART, WHO IS MISSING, EARL, WHO IS IN PRISON, AND WHOEVER OPENED THE SANCTUM.
Tack Angel: ...

Saturn City Penitentiary
Tack Angel is making his way down the Cell Block, surrounded by guards. He walked up to a cell where he found...
Tack Angel: Trevor?!
Trevor Mach: Tack!
Tack Angel: What are you doing in here?!
Trevor Mach: I killed a guy! *whispers* I'm undercover shhhh...
Tack Angel: Who is that guy in the corner?
A creepy prisoner was shaking and sneering in the corner.
Trevor Mach: That's my bitch! His name is Slinky! Don't worry, we waiting till marriage for the sodomy. *kissy face*
Slinky: AHHHHH!!!!!
Slinky rushed out of the cell.
Tack Angel: What is with that guy?
Trevor Mach: He ACTUALLY killed a guy! He's crazy!
Tack Angel: Right, HE'S crazy.
Trevor Mach: What are you doing here?
Tack Angel: I was sent here to look for Gordon Cole. Last Jeff and Degrees saw of him, he was here. They sent me because they, like you, assume I'm some hanna-barbera tier superhero.
Trevor Mach: Cole? He's gone.
Tack Angel: What? Where did he go?
Trevor Mach: It was the strangest thing dude. He says to me that he has to go away for a while because the "Dreamer doesn't want to type in All Caps anymore". THEN, the man leaps atop a flying turtle and floats away.
Tack Angel: You're making that up.
Trevor Mach: I'm actually not.
Tack Angel: Oh. Uh...so why are you here? We have an E1 event coming up!
Trevor Mach: I was looking for Earl, but he seems to have dropped off the face of the Earth already.
Tack Angel: So why are you still here?
Trevor Mach: Because I'm King here!
Tack Angel: Trevor...sometimes I don't know about you.
Trevor suddenly shook off the grin of his face and stared at Tack through the bars...
Trevor Mach: Tack...everybody's got two wolves inside them. Both of them are starving. The one wolf is anger, envy, pride. The other one's truth, kindness. Every day they tear each other apart. But it's not the better wolf that wins. It's the one you feed. You help me feed the good one brother.
Tack Angel: Uh...what?
Trevor Mach: Nothing. *lights cigarette* I'm ready to go when you are.
Tack Angel: ....Yeah...let's...let's go.
EBC News
Reporter: To give you an update on the current situation, it appears the storm has finally drifted back into the ocean. The coast has been ravaged by Hurricane Hilary. We take you now to Summers, which took most of the damage...
Summers Reporter: Thank you. As you can see, the damage is extensive, but repairs are already underway, and here to help us is Havok Wrestling Renegade Magnum PT. Welcome Magnum, it's great to see you here.
Magnum PT: Well, I couldn't sit back while Hurricane Hilary ravaged MY country! That hurricane, was an annoying bitch that couldn't accept that this country didn't want it, so it threw a bitch fit all over the coast!
Summers Reporter: Who would ever want a hurricane? So PT, how are you going to help with the damage?
Magnum PT: ...By driving the PT Express Version 2.0 up and down the coast, and reaching out to the Eaglelanders!
Summers Reporter: Reaching out? How so?
Magnum PT: Uh...I'm going to roll down the window....reach out...and pass out Eagleland Flags...little ones.
Summers Reporter: Oh...but...oh he's already gone.

Havok Locker Room
Bashin Dan and Slam Master Jam were returning from sparring...
Bashin Dan: Excellent Deck Jam!
Slam Master Jam: HEY! OH...DECK...you said DECK. I wish you'd say that more clearly.
Bashin Dan: I feel unstoppable! My hot blood is pumping through my veins and-
Troy: FUCK YOU!
Bashin Dan: AH!
Troy rushed in and big booted Dan's head right into the lockers, putting a big dent into them.
Lukie: OH! Very nice big guy! Haha!
Slam Master Jam: What are you doing?!
Lukie: The same thing he's about to do to you loser!
Troy picked up SMJ and tossed him across the room.
Troy: FUCKERS!
Lukie: Ha! Yeah! Take that! We're running this show now! It's the Alpha Betas dominating!
Slam Master Jam: *cough cough* B-but which one of you is the beta?
Lukie: Eh?
Slam Master Jam: You might have the ability and the mic skills, but Troy is tall and can big boot. Rules call for this tag team to break up, and Troy rises to the top once again, while you languish in the mid card.
Lukie: What?! That's bullshit! What rule?! You...YOU'RE MAKING THAT UP! TROY PUNT HIM!
Troy: Punting!
Troy knocked out Jam, but the damage had already been done to Lukie's confidence.
Bad Dudes Bar
Christina Angel and Hope Mach were having a drink, when a tall dominating presence appeared behind them...
?: HEY! You two!
Christina Angel: Uh...hello?
Hope Mach: Can we help you?
?: You dumb bitches think you're tough?! You think you're impressing anyone?! I see you on my television, and I think you're just a joke that isn't even funny!
Christina Angel: ...I think she's had a bit too much to drink.
Hope Mach: Need someone to call you a cab?
?: You're not representative of what a STRONG! INDEPENDENT! TOUGH AS NAILS! EMPOWERED! WOMAN! is supposed to be! You're NOTHING like the women on Game of Thrones OR like me!
Hope Mach: Game of what now?
Christina Angel: TV show.
Hope Mach: Dad doesn't like watching modern TV.
Christina Angel: You don't live at home with them.
Hope Mach: Yeah, but I come over to eat.
Christina Angel: That's why you're always over at my house. You come over to eat...at OUR house.
Hope Mach: Right, and you guys don't watch modern junk either!
Christina Angel: ...So much anime.
?: HEY! Did you forget about me?!
Hope Mach: Oh yeah! Sorry, I actually did. Who are you?
?: You can call me Yas Kween, and I am going to be the STRONG! EMPOWE-
At that moment, bartender Lady M's popped her head up from behind the bar.
Lady M's: I was nice and black out drunk back here when I had to hear all this garbage. Excuse me...uh...Kween was it? What makes you "STRONG" and "EMPOWERED"?
Yas Kween: What?! Just look at me! I'm TOUGH AS NA-
Lady M's chopped her in the throat.
Lady M's: Looks aren't everything bitch. You're almost twice my size and I just chopped you down. Why? Cause instead of "trying" to be strong, I just am. Listen to me, while you're gasping for air. You are the worst stereotype of current year. You're a wafer thin concept copy and pasted to pander to low life neck beard wannabe feminists that just want to touch some titty, and buzz cut lesbians who have no idea that the razor they use to cut themselves is actually for their lush pit and leg hair. You have nothing to you, except, "I CAN BE TOUGH LIKE THE GUYS TOO". Is that what this is? Are you just everything they think guys think is tough turned into a female? Why do you even care?
Yas Kween: I-I-I-
Lady M's: Let me guess, your backstory is, "I am a no nonsense woman that is good at everything"? That's not a backstory, that's bullshit. I'm a flawed woman. I'm an alcoholic. My Mom tried to replace me with a sister I never knew I had, and my Dad is a biker outlaw. I was raised to be strong by my circumstances, but never once did I care if I was "cool or strong like the boys". I like some dark shit, but I also like Sailor Moon, Video Games, Twinkies, and Dr. Pepper. Lots of other shit too, but that just shows you, I'm a mixed bag. I have personality, character, and experiences. That's something your paper thin premise misses EVERY TIME. So kindly, "Kween"....fuck right off.
Yas Kween: ...Maybe...I will rethink my life.
Hope Mach: Wow Mom, that was...very deep and personal.
Lady M's: Truth be told, I'm so drunk I don't know what I just said, and I certainly won't remember it tomorrow....but thanks.
Christina Angel: You're a good role model for us after all Lady M's.
Lady M's: Thanks...but I'm still going to kill you in our match. I mean, it's going to hurt really badly for you. The fact that you're an Angel just makes me want to smash this bottle over your head, but I'll wait on account of unconsciousness.
Lady M's blacked out behind the bar again.
Christina Angel: ....Oh crabcakes.

6. E1 Climax Block Havok: Trevor Mach[4] beat Takumi Inui[6] via Machbuster x Knee Trigger -> Pin
-In Singles action, Troy manhandled the young Renegade Bashin Dan, using injuries he sustained in an attack the previous day to subdue him with yet another Punt Kick. After the match Benjamin and Slam Master Jam tried to make the save, actually forcing the Alpha Beta out of the ring. They looked fired up, as if to say they weren't going to take the rookie treatment anymore.
-Jackson Kain got back on track with a hard fought win over Razorblade. The two rudos threw out all the rules, and it was the split legged low blow to Blade followed by the Shadow Kick that got Kain the 2 points.
-Firebrand X continues his big comeback, garnering the respect and adoration of the Renegades in the crowd along the way. Subculture hit the KO Punch, but Firebrand ate the punch and lifted him up for his devastating new Fireslide, which garnered him another win.
-Lady M's and Christina Angel faced off in a match for the #1 Contendership of the Lady Renegades Championship. The young Angel had a tough climb, but the seemingly hung over M's gave her many chances for an upset. M's stumbled out of an Angel Driver attempt and bounced off the ropes, coming back with the Rolling M's. That was enough to seal the deal for M's. Christina looked good in defeat, and was probably relieved that M's didn't kill her like she said she would.
-Dragon Shiryu was having a tough E1 run, but all it took was one match to put him back on track. A fantastic bout with the Havok World Champion Tack Angel. A straight up kick and punch fest. Tack tried hitting the StarStorm NEO, but the Dragon escaped and clocked Tack with the Rozan Shoryu-Ha. The blow sent him out of the ring long enough for the 10 Count. Dragon Shiryu claimed a count out victory over the World Champion.
-Main event saw the Crimson Smasher Takumi Inui take on the Bad Man Trevor Mach. Takumi was having a great run, while Mach not so much, and it looked to be another loss considering his injured knee. However, while he could only tie Takumi's 86 in street racing, he did manage to halt the advance of the young Renegade. Mach was playing possum with the knee, surprising Takumi and hitting the Machbuster before the Knee Trigger and the pin. Mach is back on track with the big win over Takumi.

Havok Locker Room
Tack Angel was wrapping up and kicking at a post when Subculture entered with Razorblade and Maniac.
Tack Angel: Be done in a minute fellas.
Subculture: Be done in a minute? We're here to have a word with you "Star Prince".
Tack Angel: You are? I was really hoping all this rivalry stuff could wait till after the tournament. I have a good shot at being the first champion to win the E1.
Subculture: Rivalries don't just pause like that!
Tack Angel: Why not?
Razorblade: Shut it Star nut!
Maniac: You think you made the Supremacy look bad by trying to keep us out of the E1 finals?
Tack Angel: No, I thought I made you look bad when I beat you all in that three tier cage.
Maniac: Dammit!
Razorblade: Shut up! That wasn't out fault!
Subculture: I can't WAIT to knock your block off Angel! You can make your jokes, but I STILL have the hardest fists in the sport!
Tack Angel: And I...kick things REALLY well....so watch it...buddy.
Subculture: ...Your idiocy astounds me.
Tack Angel: That....is my secret weapon.

6. E1 Climax Block Havok: Firebrand X[9] vs. Trevor Mach[7] Time Limit Draw!
-Razorblade's poor E1 run continued with a failed attempt to halt Takumi Inui. The driver of the 86 had to hit his Heart Punch x Crimson Smash combo to keep the big guy from the north on the mat for the 1-2-3.
-The chip on Subculture's shoulder didn't help him beat the World Champion, as the Star Prince avoided the hurting bombs of Subbie and landed his StarStorm Neo! for the pin.
-In non E1 action, Maniac managed to defeat Magnum PT with the Sliced Bread #2, avoiding a shut out for the Supremacy on this night.
-Dragon Shiryu continued coming back strong with a win over last year's E1 winner. The Rozan Shoryu-Ha lead to the victory.
-Hope Mach faced off with Demon Masaki II in the next match, and though the grappling Hope looked to be able to score a submission win, she'd have to settle for a DQ win, as Dulce Reina came in and attacked. She grabbed a mic and blamed the crowd and the Lady Renegades for what happened to her the week prior, and promised to continue her rudo ways until she was given justice.
-A huge main event saw the re-surging Firebrand X battle the Bad Man Trevor Mach. A historic showdown, and a bloody brawl. Both men were able to match each other in strikes and grappling. X was still the best at the hybrid style, but Mach's experience over the years allowed him to counter when X tried to make it an MMA style encounter. The time limit was reached just as both men collided after running off the ropes, leading to them holding each other up as the ref declared the draw. A show of respect, as Mach fist bumped X after the match.
The White Room
Inside the room lit up on all sides with bright whiteness, a figure entered. A man in a lab coat, who held the door open for an escaped convict, still clad in his chains...it was Simon Stuart. He stood before the man in the hospital bed...
Stuart: I hear I have you to thank for getting me out of that shit show. Thanks I guess, but I have no idea what you think you can get from me. My reputation, my legacy, my fortune....it's all gone you know? All I wanted was a little revenge. Revenge on the asshole that took it from me, but the word is out of the street now. The Star Prince reigns supreme, and I'm at rock bottom.
?: Did you forget everything you were taught as a child. *cough cough* When you hit rock bottom, you have nothing left to lose, and that THAT is when you begin your rise back to the top. Now, you know what it's like to have nothing. You and I, we can rebuild.
Stuart: ....Who are you? It's way too bright in here. I can't see yo-
?: That's a necessary dilemma, as I'm sure my associate told you. The shadows...they....they can't be allowed in here. You're not the only one to stare down the darkness and survive you know.
Stuart: I still want to know who you-
The man in the bed sat up, startling Stuart, as he backed against the wall.
Stuart: It...it can't be!
?: It is....my son.

Jeff Andonuts Office
Jeff Andonuts: The shows have been going really well. The ratings are sky high. Merch is flying off the shelves. We've sold out the dome. It's like we're entering a new golden age now that we've put all that nonsense behind us.
Mr. Pirkle: Yes. The same can be said for WBPW. I guess competition really does create cash Mr. Andonuts. It's funny, when this all started in 2006, I hired you to EBW to be a referee. Look at how far we've come.
Jeff Andonuts: It's been a bumpy, disjointed, and unorganized road, but we're here Pirkle. In just a few days, we're going to see which company is the best. The EBW style reborn as WBPW OR the Renegades of Havok.
Mr. Pirkle: You know, we lost some connections by agreeing to this. A lot of the up and coming new companies wanted us to work with them only, and block out the "big guys" as it were. I feel we made the right choice. After what happened with Poochyfud and Stuart especially.
Jeff Andonuts: We still owe you gratitude for the assistance, especially from Ness. He really put himself out there for us.
Mr. Pirkle: He wanted to build that bridge, and build it he did.
Jeff Andonuts: By the way, do any of your guys recollect anything more about that night?
Mr. Pirkle: They know bits and pieces, just like you guys. We do know one thing for sure. Apparently-
Jeff Andonuts: One of the E1 participants died.
Mr. Pirkle: And yet, they are all accounted for. Do you think?
Jeff Andonuts: The Arremer situation all over again? I'm really hoping not. If I can't spot a robot replicant by this point in my scientific career, I might as well call it quits.
Mr. Pirkle: Then what could it be?
Jeff Andonuts: ...It has something to do...with Sanctum.
Mr. Pirkle: ...Doesn't it always these days?

-Razorblade finally captured another win on the last day of the E1 Blocks, though it seemed to be more of a spite win to keep Shiryu from attaining more points. The big man seemed to have enough, bringing out that fire that got him a World Championship in his rookie year. He blocked the Shoryu-Ha attempts from the Dragon and plowed him to the mat with the Piledriver for the pin.
-The Star Prince advances! The World Champion has a real chance of making wrestling history after his win over last year's winner Jackson Kain. The StarStorm Neo! kept the action star down, and guarenteed that Tack Angel has a real chance to walk away with the World Championship AND the E1 Climax win!
-Lady M's looked very strong heading towards a huge confrontation with her sister, Lady Renegades Champion Rose Mulligan, and this match with Lexie Bless proved it. The 5'0 Muscle Pixie had the attitude right, but she couldn't back it up in a strikefest with the veteran M's. Lexie barely escaped a Rolling M's and left the ring, leading to a count out. M's demanded another Lady Renegade come out to satisfy the blood lust. Rose Mulligan tried to come out, but security kept them away from each other. Family blood will spill soon enough.
-The Supremacy tried to play spoilers this year to little success. Subculture had a rough run of it this year, ending with a loss to Trevor Mach, who recovered from some losses to the likes of Shiryu and Angel to tie with the point leader Firebrand, and finally to beat Subbie following the Machbuster and the Knee Trigger. Mach ends it with 9 points, but it wouldn't be enough to secure a spot for the King of Clash.
-A huge title change out of nowhere! Dulce Reina and Demon Masaki II have been making waves in the Lady Renegades division, but not always for the best things. Reina has become hated for her desire to simply hurt the other Ladies and remove them from the division. Tonight, this team gave themselves another target on their backs, as Reina hit the Fisherman Suplex on a stunned Kelly Steele to secure the pin, giving the Lady Renegades Tag Team Championships to the new hot team on the block.
-Main event time saw another 5 star classic in the making, as Firebrand X battled Takumi Inui. An amazing encounter that showed off the best of what the two could do. It nearly ended in yet another time limit draw for X, but he finally caught Inui after a missed Heart Punch and took him to the mat with the Fireslide for the 1-2-3! Firebrand X ends the block as the points leader heading into an epic E1 Collision in the Saturn Dome! He and Havok World Champion Tack Angel will represent Havok as they battle the best of the WBPW Block for the most coveted tournament prize in wrestling history, the E1 Climax Trophy.

Outside of the Saturn Dome
Reporters and fans packed the grounds in front of the Saturn Dome, for a joint Havok-WBPW Press Conference discussing what has turned out to be one of the biggest shows in quite some time.
Mr. Pirkle: Like my esteemed friend Mr. Andonuts just said, this will be a one time thing for now, but it may grow into something more depending on the results. It could be winner take all in the end. We won't know until our boys and girls go out there and give you all the best show money can buy! You won't find wrestling action like this anywhere else. Did you see the E1 so far?! On both shows you had amazing classics! You think we're going to slow down there? We're just getting started. Look at this dome behind us. We're filling this baby with all of you, and you will witness a COLLISION!
Jeff Andonuts: Wow, you really laid it on thick with the hype.
Mr. Pirkle: Hype we will deliver upon good sir.
Jeff Andonuts: The show will be called E1 Collision in Saturn Dome, and it will feature the best and brightest from both promotions. We will see inter-promotional battles. We will see titles on the line as well. Trevor Mach has agreed to put his King of Clash title on the line against the young lion of WBPW that has raised the bar for the next generation of talent. Cade Lofton, trained by the best to be the best. A lot of people told me I should have hired you. I wish I had. Fans called this a potential dream match someday. I say, why wait?
Cade Lofton: It's going to be an honor to face you si-
Trevor Mach: Look at me. You think I give a rat's ass about honor kid? Maybe at some point, but you lose that when you gain some perspective in the ring. Don't look at it as an honor, that's an insult to you. Man up and tell yourself you deserve to be facing me down, or you're just wasting my damn time.
Cade Lofton: I work hard for what I get. Everything is earned, nothing given. If I'm standing here, that means I deserve it, so yes Trevor Mach, I deserve this chance. The world knows a lot about the man in the leather jacket and aviators. You've had quite the story unfold as hero, villain, and back again. You don't know a thing about me though. You don't know who I am or where I come from. You're going to find out though.
Trevor Mach: You see? Now THAT is better. I'm proud and pissed at the same time kid. I'd pat your back, but then I'm going to take this fist and give you so many rights, you'll be begging for a left. Clash Rules kid. You understand what that means? Throw your game out the window, cause this is the match type that takes body from you. If you hold back, you'll wake up in the hospital eating all your food from a straw from now on. Do you....understand me?
Cade Lofton: Understand this.
Cade Lofton threw a punch at Trevor Mach, causing all the suited men and women from both sides of the stage to jump up, but Mach held them at bay.
Trevor Mach: ...I like you kid...you might just a be a Bad Dude after all. Those aviators were expensive though, you're going to have to pay for those.
Cade Lofton: I'm sor-
Trevor Mach: GOTCHA!
Mr. Pirkle: Alright! Settle down! Mach, you've always been a pain in my ass.
Trevor Mach: Love you too Prick-le!
Mr. Pirkle: It's Pirkle.
Trevor Mach: No, it's Prickle.
Mr. Pirkle: *sigh* We will see my gals Paula, Tracy, and Erica battle over our Women's Grand Championship, and we will also see Lady M's challenge Rose Mulligan for the Havok counter part. Both of those matches happen to be family affairs don't they? Guess what people say about us is true.
Rose Mulligan: I'm going to say something. I want everyone else to shut up and listen. You WBPW "girls" stay seated too. M's, you are not my sister. I hold no feelings of family with you. You're no more important to me than the fly I swatted on my way up here. I want this family angle dropped from your tongues immediately. Do NOT sell your tickets, acting like this is Jerry Springer or something. This is about the best in the world finishing off the has been once and for all. Nothing more.
Lady M's: Don't flatter yourself Rose, I couldn't give two fucks about you either, but I'm far from through, and I'm far from through with you. I had my life in your hands, but I let you live. Always remember that. Everything you do in this life is because I allowed it. What I WON'T allow, is for you to hold MY title any longer. Before it was personal, and I wanted to hurt you. I realize now that the best way is to reclaim my place at the top of the mountain. I'm going to do just that. When I'm done, at least I know you've got a mommy and daddy to go cry to.
Jeff Andonuts: Ladies, please don't fight! Listen, we have a few more speakers and then you can do anything you want, as long as it's away from me and you still show up for work this weekend. Now, we'll hear a few words from the E1 Finalists from each Block. One of these four men will win the prize and claim superiority for their promotion.
Tack Angel: I have a chance to make history. I would really really REALLY like to do that. I think it would be...pretty cool. Thank you.
Derek Mach: Look at that goofy bastard! Always had a way with words didn't ya! Ha! Look, I don't even know why the fuck I decided to show up. I think it was the free food. Whatever! I'm here, I'm drunk, and I'm going to fuck shit up in that dome over there, if it's the last thing I do, and it very well could be. "*gasp* What did he mean by that?" Like I'd tell ya.
Ness: .....
Firebrand X: .....
Mr. Pirkle: Silence? We're ending on silence? Wonderful. Great. Good job. Everyone do NOT miss this HUGE event! Glue yourselves to the screens. Do not miss A SINGLE SECOND! E1 Collision in Saturn Dome!

Nerma: Out of my way Dukes! That's right, Nerma is back, as a representative of WBPW! I'll be asking the hard hitting questions, like asking your champion how he'll feel after he loses to the superior brand.
Tommy Dukes: Aren't we supposed to be on friendly terms tonight?
Nerma: Can it Dukes! Tack! Star Prince! Over here! I-Whoa...
Tommy Dukes: Is that?!
World famous musician Seal exits the bus with the Havok World Champion.
Nerma: Tack, is that Seal with you?!
Tack Angel: Yes. He's going to be singing my theme song live tonight. I need all the momentum I can get if I'm going to make history tonight. This is the best chance any World Champion has had to win the E1 while holding the title.
Subculture: Damn you Tack! You just had to go there didn't you! It's bad enough that you hog all the spotlight, but then you do something like this! We're all under enough pressure as it is!
Tack Angel: We ALL need to wrestle hard tonight t-
Subculture: I'm not talking about the wrestling! That theme song is awesome, and you go and add SEAL to the mix?! How can anyone compete with that?! It's ridiculous!
Tack Angel: ...I'm sorry?
Subculture: You will be....YOU WILL BE! Dammit...I'm late!
Tack Angel: It's not THAT great of an entrance is it?
Seal: It is Star Prince. It is.
Tack Angel: Wow, thanks Seal!

Alley behind Saturn Dome
Derek Mach staggered against a wall, trying to walk away from the building before being stopped...
Derek Mach: Heh...knew I couldn't get away fast enough.
Trevor Mach: Where are you going?
Derek Mach: I'm going nowhere Cousin.
Trevor Mach: What's your deal?
Derek Mach: Maybe I got too into it earlier. I don't blame you for stopping me against that Star guy. I came here to have some fun one last time.
Trevor Mach: One last time? The hell are you talking about?
Derek Mach: Yeah, you don't remember either do you. I'm already dead.
Trevor Mach: Dead?
Derek Mach: The next time you see me....it will not be me. So long...Trevor.

Havok Wrestling Update
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the Burt Reynolds of Wrestling, and I'm here with your post E1 update! What an incredible show that was, with the resurgence of Firebrand X leading to the E1 Climax win. You'll be pleased to know that he isn't a robot replica this time. Firebrand X will be the next in line to challenge Star Prince Tack Angel for the Havok World Championship, but we've got some big news about when that is taking place. Turns out money talks. We had so much success with WBPW that we're meeting for another big event, called Showdown at Mt. Itoi, and it will take place....at Mt....Itoi. I figured that would be obvious. Well, then why did I need to say it? What do you mean why did I call myself Burt Reynolds? You did see my mustache right?

Saturn Dome
A post E1 Press Conference was held following the event, with most of the big names making it to the table...
Reporter #1: Firebrand, how does it feel to win the E1 Climax?
Firebrand X: It's been a long time coming. I know there was some confusion a few years ago because of Arremer, but this year, it was all me, and I'm ready to take it even further. Tack Angel, listen to me, and understand this. I'm coming for that Havok World Championship.
Tack Angel: I hear you. I'm sitting a couple chairs away. You see me right? I'm waving.
Firebrand X: ...Yes...I see you.
Tack Angel: Oh good.
Reporter #2: Star Prince, your E1 didn't end like you planned. How are you feeling?
Tack Angel: Well, my head hurts. It's hurts pretty bad. I took some aspirin, but it's only been a few minutes so I doubt it's had time to set in.
Reporter #2: I meant...how are you feeling about not making history like you planned?
Tack Angel: ...I would rather it worked out.
Reporter #2: ...Great. Thanks.
Reporter #3: Trevor, what did you think of the young rookie Cade Lofton?
Trevor Mach: That kid, he's a step above. Very impressed, I think we had the match of the whole damn night!
Reporter #3: Cade? Your response?
Cade Lofton: I understand now why my mentors have had such a tough time with Trevor Mach. He's a man too stubborn to stay down. I'd agree 100% about our match. Easily the best of the night. No offense everyone.
Trevor Mach: No, I meant to offend. WE had the best match people! STEP! IT! UP! They aren't on our level kid? Hey, you wanna be a Bad Dude?
Mr. Pirkle: HE CERTAINLY DOES NOT!
Reporter #2: Rose, tonight was considered something of an upset. How do YOU feel after beating your sis-
Rose Mulligan: Upset? UPSET?! Garbage! It's a cold hard fact, that I am the best, and M's, her time at the top is over.
Reporter #2: M's? Your retort?
Lady M's: Fuck off. How's that for a retort?
Jeff Andonuts: Uhhh...next question please!
Lady M's: No. NO! You want a retort?! Rose, if you think this is it, you're in for a rude awakening. I don't stop. I never stop. I don't know how to stop, and you will see me in the ring again very soon.
Reporter #1: Slam Master Jam? How does it feel to not have a match, and yet somehow you and Retro Hippie, got targeted by the tag champs and you WON!
Slam Master Jam: I'm just as shocked as you are! I mean I-AAHHHHH!!!!
Troy: FUCK YOOOOOU!
Troy rushed in and hit the big boot on Slam Master Jam ending the Press Conference on a chaotic note....of course.

Havok Training Center
Tack Angel entered the center, where he saw Trevor Mach hitting away at a heavy bag.
Tack Angel: Trevor, fancy seeing you here, actually working out.
Trevor Mach: I got a lot on my mind bro.
Tack Angel: I can see that. You alright?
Trevor Mach: Yeah yeah. It's not me I'm freaking out about.
Tack Angel: Derek?
Trevor Mach: Said some real weird shit to me the other day. Cryptic Derek is normally very bad.
Tack Angel: I'd be more worried, but he did try to break my ankle.
Trevor Mach: It's not him I'm worried about. It's everyone else....except me though. I'll be fine.
Tack Angel: Well, I did want to thank you for helping me out there by the way.
Trevor Mach: Don't thank me. I was just doing my job bro.
Tack Angel: Friends helping friends isn't a job.
Trevor Mach: No, I mean it's part of my Face Bonus.
Tack Angel: Face Bonus?
Trevor Mach: Yeah. Jeff and the Doc offered me a bonus for not trying to destroy everything...again.
Tack Angel: Oh...oh wow. It takes-
Trevor Mach: What, it takes money for me to be "good"? Not necessarily, but they don't have to know that. Still, yet another reason I envy you Tack.
Tack Angel: Oh yeah? Why's that?
Trevor Mach: I get paid to be good, while you're good for nothing. See you buddy.
Tack Angel: Thanks man....HEY WAIT A MINUTE!

Streets of Saturn City
Trevor Mach and Tack Angel were walking back home...
Trevor Mach: My house doesn't suck Tack!
Tack Angel: I never said it did! I was just saying that even a large room can be considered a hallway!
Trevor Mach: You think your house is so much better than mine? I demand we switch for a week!
Tack Angel: 1. I want no part of your sitcom antics. 2. Our houses are the exact same. The floor plans are identical.
Trevor Mach: That's right. Your house sucks too.
Tack Angel: You were saying your house doesn't suck.
Trevor Mach: Oh right. See, that's why you make this friendship work. You point me in the right direction.
Tack Angel: Well, I might point you in the other direction. We have some people approaching.
Trevor Mach: Fans?
Tack Angel: Doesn't look like it.
Some large muscular men wielding chains and bats approached the Bad Dudes...
Trevor Mach: ...Well they're obviously not Star Prince fans.
Thug #1: It's them! Easier to find than I thought.
Thug #2: He told us they'd make it easy. He said they were stupid alright. Tell me Mach, did you really do all the messed up shit he said you did?
Trevor Mach: You're going to have to narrow it down bro, that's covers a lot of ground. Say, you cover a lot of ground. You better move it, I hear they're gonna tear you down and put up an office where you're standing.
Thug #2: The hell are you talking about?
Tack Angel: Do we really want to upset the armed goons Trevor?
Trevor Mach: You might be on to something. Guys, Tack is right about this. We get PAID to fight. You think we're going to kick your asses for free? Let's see some money.
Tack Angel: That is NOT what I meant.
Thug #3: You assholes have death wish!
Trevor Mach: Why don't you calm down, take a deep breath, and go home to your wives or girlfriends. Better yet, we'll go to them. Except for all the major improvements they wouldn't know the difference.
Thug #4: That's it fucker! You're going down!
Trevor Mach: You first!
Tack Angel: Oh cracker doodles here we go.
A thug ran at Trevor with a chain, but Trevor kicked him between the legs and kneed him in the face when he hunched over. Tack kicks the bat out of another thugs hands and it smashed into one of the other would be attackers. Trevor and Tack then punched the last thug at the same time. Trevor quickly turned to punch Tack.
Tack Angel: HEY! IT'S ME!
Trevor Mach: I KNOW! Just kidding, I'm not going to hit you. I'm going to keep this bat though. Hey asshole! SMAAASH!
Tack Angel: Whoa! He was already beaten!
Trevor Mach: Relax! Fighting for your honor here bro, which is more than you've ever done.
Tack Angel: Hey!
Trevor Mach: I'm just bantering! Focus Tack, why the hell did these guys attack us? I mean, I could understand me, but why you? You're a boy scout. Some asshole sent them, but who?
Tack Angel: You're right...who has a problem with us now?
Atop a building looking down, a figure watched the scene playing out.
Stuart: ...Pathetic.

Supremacy Locker Room
Razorblade: What is your problem man?
Subculture: My problem? My problem is both of you! That E1 Climax was awful! We are a laughing stock!
Maniac: What are you complaining about? We won! We beat those WBPW assholes. We're the best Trios.
Subculture: That's NOOOOT what we're supposed to be! We're supposed to be the best at EVERYTHING!
Razorblade: We are, well, I am.
Subculture: Oh yeah? Did you win the E1?! I certainly didn't win the E1! Do any of us wear a red mask? Red cape? Red horns?
Maniac: That guy likes red.
Subculture: I'm SICK and TIRED of playing second fiddle to "Star Princes" and "Bad Men"! I've had enough of them and I've had enough of YOU!
Maniac: The hell?!
Razorblade: Where you going?! Hey! GET BACK HERE! WE HAVE A TITLE DEFENSE TONIGHT ASSHOLE!
Maniac: Maybe he's just hungry. People get angry and grumpy when they're hungry.
Razorblade: Didn't you try to kill someone for a cheeseburger once?
Maniac: Yep...pretty grumpy.
Hallway
Retro Hippie: Why is this happening? Why is this happening!? WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?!
Slam Master Jam: Relax! This a great thing!
Retro Hippie: You think? They attacked us. SOMEHOW, we got away unscathed, and NOW we get a TITLE SHOT?! I'm not an active wrestler! You're....well you suck!
Slam Master Jam: Hey!
Retro Hippie: I manage the 87's! I don't put myself in harm's way like this! I didn't ask for this!
Slam Master Jam: It's destiny! You can't ask for destiny, it just happens! Tonight, will be the night, that the baller and the hippie shock the world! We're going to beat the Alpha Betas, and we're going to become the World Tag Team Champions! When we do, we're totally renaming the titles to something cool like "2v2 Slam Team Champions!", and like, and like, and like we'll get rid of tagging in an out! It'll be 2 v 2 just like the street ball that I very very badly play!
Retro Hippie: ...We don't have a prayer.
Meanwhile...
Alpha Beta Locker Room
Lukie: Stupid Troy. He let us lose to those WBPW jerks and then AND THEN he allows us to get humiliated by those LOSERS! I did not perfect my yoga, rebuild my career, attempt to kill Tack Angel again, and claim the tag titles just to be relegated to THIS! I'm NOT the weak link of this team! He is! I'm going to prove it. Tonight, I'm going to be the one to put away these idiots and defend MY titles!
Tack Angel: ...Why are you telling me this?
Lukie: ...No one else would listen?
Tack Angel: I see.
Havok Arena Ring
The show opened with Degrees in the middle of the ring...
Degrees: Hello Renegades! How about that E1 Climax eh? We want to thank you all for reigniting this sport with your time and money during that amazing tournament. Business has never been better. Ratings have never been better. We're happy to show all of you what you want to see, and that's wrestling without all the bull-
At that moment Subculture's theme played...
Degrees: *sigh* Cue the bullshit.
Subculture: Oh that's cute Degrees. That's really cute. Why don't you shut it and get out of my ring!
Degrees: Your ring?
Subculture: That's right, it's my ring! I belong in the middle of this ring! Not you or anyone else! I fought my whole life on the streets to get to where I am! I trained with the best! I've been to the mountaintop, which is a place you never were. I'm not playing around anymore. Get out of this ring, or I'll throw you out.
Degrees: You don't want to do that.
Subculture: What, you're going to fire me?
Degrees: No, I'll fight back.
Subculture: You think I care? I'll knock you out in one punch. That's right, I have the power of the punch! But, look at this, I'm wearing boxing gloves. This WHOLE time, I've been able to knock people senseless while wearing padding! A gift from Little Mac, but he can go screw himself, because I'm done with em! Now, you surely know how hard I punch WITH the gloves, but what about a bare knuckle punch straight to your-
Trevor Mach: Sounds like that's my cue!
Subculture: Oh no you don't! You stay away from this ring! I've got a lot to say to these people!
Trevor Mach: You've said enough bro! Now, you're talking about bare knuckle fist fighting? That's right up my alley. See this belt? I'm the King of Clash, so why don't you leave the Doc alone, and take a shot at me?
Subculture: I hate you Trevor Mach. I think I hate you even more than the damn Star Prince. You might have played second fiddle when he brought down the Alliance, but while he didn't take any pleasure in it, you laughed and laughed your stupid head off. I didn't like that. I didn't like that at all. Being the punchline to a Trevor Mach joke makes me SICK, especially the has been Mach. Years ago, when I BEAT YOU for the World Championship, you were at your peak. Look at you now? You used to train constantly, and now all you are is one bad decision after another. You don't deserve to still be where you are.
Trevor Mach: You think I've lost a step? Bro, I've never been better. You can train all you want, but nothing beats the instinct that I have for this sort of thing. You won't find a more stubborn bastard on the planet, and that will ALWAYS make me dangerous. I haven't lost a step. I'm waaaay ahead of you in this race pal. You were better than me once, but I barely remember it, just like the Renegades. They don't remember when Subculture was great either.
Subculture: Is that right? You don't remember? Heh...I'll remind you.
Subculture clocked Degrees with the KO Punch before leaving the ring.
Havok Interview Stage
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the Adol Christin of Wrestling, and I'm joined by Lady M's, who requested this time, and by requested, I mean she threatened to castrate me, so here we are...M's?
Lady M's: Rose Mulligan, you have got to be the luckiest woman in the world. You beat me, and you beat me at my best. You didn't pull out any dirty tricks. You didn't resort to help from the outside. You beat me clean. I'd like to claim deal with the devil or act of God, but I'm not about to use bullshit excuses. You have my respect, and I'm ready to bury this blood feud. I don't want to act like we're sisters any more than we did before we learned about the fact, but I'm woman enough to extend my hand. Come out here Lady Renegades Champion, and shake my damn hand.
Instead of Rose Mulligan, Momo Miyuki came out and blind sided Lady M's. She hit her in the elbow with a steel pipe repeatedly before Swift Security could separate them.

6. Havok Trios Championship: Kinniku Mike/Amigo/Magnum PT[o] beat Subculture(c)/Maniac(c)/Razorblade(c)[x] via Mustache Ride -> Pin -> NEW Havok Trios Champions!
-The new generation dream team of Takumi Inui and Dragon Shiryu battled Mystic Clash in a hot opening match. Dan and Benjamin never looked better, yet they ultimately lost when the Crimson Smasher did his thing and pinned Benjamin for the win.
-Dulce Reina continues to build a bad reputation in the Lady Renegades division. The Anahauc star is going out of her way to injure competitors, and Christina Angel felt that in this match. She trapped Christina's leg against the turnbuckle and tried to dislocate her knee. The referee demanded she stop after the rope break, but she wouldn't let up, leading to the DQ win for Christina Angel. Dulce refused to let go after the match, leading to Iroha, Christina's manager getting physical once again, to make Dulce let go.
-The Havok World Champion Tack Angel lead King of Clash Trevor Mach, Firebrand X, and Television Champion Camilo Ortega against the full force of the Good News Guys. Even with Good News Gary on the outside, his team was thwarted, when Firebrand X hoisted up Mudslide in an insane show of strength with the Fireslide for the pin. After the match, Firebrand shook Tack's hand, but then pointed to the title. The E1 Climax winner will soon be gunning for Tack Angel and the Havok World Championship.
-The impossible has become reality. The Alpha Betas were defeated once again by the team of Slam Master Jam and Retro Hippie. The angry Troy was dominating, but Lukie tagged in to try and get the pin for his team. This lead to an argument, in which SMJ felt confident enough to blindside Lukie with the Slam Jam and pin attempt. 1-2-3! Retro Hippie panicked as the over joyed Slam Master Jam grabbed the titles. The two ran away from a rampaging Troy as Lukie tried to slink away unseen. New 2v2 Slam Team Champions?
-Hope Mach soundly beat Kelly Steele in a fit of rage. The rocker girl claimed no part in the attack on M's earlier, but that didn't stop Hope from dominating and winning following the Olympic Slam.
-The Trios Championship changed hands due to the dissolving of The Supremacy. Subculture clocked Razorblade after he tagged in, and walked away as PT of the Crew hit the Mustache Ride for the 1-2-3 and the title change.
Jeff Andonuts Office
Jeff Andonuts is filling out papers, when an angry Degrees rushes in...
Degrees: Jeff! I-
Jeff Andonuts: Say no more. I saw that display out there, and I already signed the match. Trevor Mach will defend against Subculture at out next big event, "Showdown at Mt. Itoi".
Degrees: NO! That's not what I want.
Jeff Andonuts: It's not?
Degrees: Next week, I WILL BE TAKING ON SUBCULTURE!
Jeff Andonuts: ...Yeah sure...don't want to yell...sitting right here.
The "Star Lair" aka Tack Angel's Locker Room
Kinniku Mike: Hey man, why do you get such a swanky locker room?
Tack Angel: Don't look at me Mike, I didn't ask for it, although the glow in the dark stars on the ceiling are a nice touch...reminds me of childhood.
Kinniku Mike: Well Star Prince, don't look now, but you have company.
Tack Angel: I know Mike, I let you in. Geez you silly billy!
Kinniku Mike: ...I meant him.
Firebrand X: .....
Tack Angel: Oh! Hey Firebrand, how can I-
Firebrand X: I want something from you Tack Angel. I just want one thing other than that Havok World Championship.
Tack Angel: Oh yeah? What can the Star Prince do for-
*SLAP!*
Firebrand X: I want your focus. I want your best. I want your very best Tack Angel. There will be no excuses and no second guessing when we have our match. I want this from you...alright?
Tack Angel: ...Didn't have to slap me...just ask next time...ouch.
Firebrand X: Oh...well I-
*KICK!*
Tack Angel: ...Request granted Firebrand. Still...ouch though.

The Angel Residence
Tack Angel came home to see the family sitting down for dinner, with Trevor Mach sitting in his seat...
Tack Angel: ...That's my chicken parm Trevor.
Trevor Mach: Tack's wife made enough for everybody!
Hope Mach: It really is good Uncle Tack.
Tack Angel: Hope? You're here too?
Trevor Mach: Wife is too angry to be around right now, so we're borrowing your wife.
Amy Angel: ...Help me.
Tack Angel: *sigh*
Christina Angel: It's quite alright actually Dad. Uncle Trevor is-
Tack Angel: Let me stop you right there daughter. Your uncle Mullet McGoo over there is a bad influence, and he's showing you right now what it's like to skirt responsibility. You are a husband Trevor, you should act like it.
Trevor Mach: I am. Your wife is amazing at putting cheeses on meats and shrimp, and I'm eating it like a good husband would AND after dinner, I'm going to take a pumice stone and work over the rough areas of her feet. Something you apparently NEVER do!
Amy Angel: I don't know how he knows that Tack, I swear I don't know.
Tack Angel: It's just that the thought of feet...makes....makes me *gag*.
Trevor Mach: Oh no, don't *gag* don't do that. If you *gag* I'm gonna *gag* I'm gonna *gag*.
Amy Angel: That's awful. *gag*
Tack Angel: *gag* Trevor, come with me.
Trevor Mach: Yeah man?
Tack lead Trevor around the corner...
Tack Angel: Listen brother, you need to go over there and console her. We've been through this before. Remember? We drove all the way to the hospital to prevent a rage murder!
Trevor Mach: Yeah, but this time it's different. We locked her in the house with a lot of alcohol. She's going to be fine!
Tack Angel: Trevor, I knew something like this might happen, so I have decided to motivate you. I have placed a lock on your locker at the Bad Dudes Bar. The contents will be kept from you until you handle this like an adult.
Trevor Mach: YOU CAN'T DO THAT! That has all my essential stuff in it Tack! I need my Samurai sword, and my California Raisins, and my dancing cola friend! They're what makes me me!
Tack Angel: Oh you mean THIS cola friend? Yeah, he dances for me now. Shake it, cola man!
Trevor Mach: YOU MONSTER!
Tack Angel: I'm just trying to help you! You don't listen when we do things the Star Prince way, so I tried it your way.
Trevor Mach: My way is violence and bitching Tack.
Tack Angel: ...Well...I tried it a different way at least then.
Trevor Mach: You're right...I know what I have to do.
Tack Angel: I'm glad that-
Trevor Mach: I'm going to get some bolt cutters, fuck up that lock, get my stuff, light a match, and throw it in YOUR locker! I can live without my special dancing cola friend no problem! I'll just find something else to fill the darkness in my heart!
Tack Angel: Aw come on! Come on! Aw! Aw Trevor come on!
Amy Angel: Tack, what's wrong?
Tack Angel: I just can't reach that guy. He needs to console Tali and-
Hope Mach: He already did that.
Tack Angel: What?
Hope Mach: He did that already. He was screwing with you Uncle Tack.
Tack Angel: ...Then what was all this about?!
Hope Mach: ....We really like your wife's cooking.
Amy Angel: I'm glad SOMEONE DOES!
Tack Angel: Aw no fair! I love your cooking! Amy come back!

Havok Wrestling Update!
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the Gene Shalit of Wrestling, and I've got your update fix right here! We have an update on the next big event, that will see Havok and WBPW do battle at Mt. Itoi, breaking in the new Shigesato Arena! Trevor Mach will be defending against Subculture as was already announced, but we'll also see Champion vs. Champion, as Rose Mulligan takes on Paula! A title for title bout that could shift everything for both promotions, that have been working hard on building their women's brands. Both have seen incredible success, but this is quite the gamble. One promotion could lose their championship and reputation in one fell swoop. However, the winner will be bringing a big trophy back with them, so it's hard to pass up. We're also going to see another big Havok vs. WBPW bout, when Takumi Inui takes on Cade. That's right, he is now going simply by Cade. In a show of respect to their student, Ness and Poo acknowledged him as the "Next Protagonist", and in that tradition, he dropped his last name, similar to Ninten, Ness, and Lucas. Takumi Inui is far and away one of Havok's best and brightest right now, but after the show stealing match at the E1 against Trevor Mach, Cade is certainly no slouch either. It really could go either way.

Troy suddenly burst in and big booted the man right through a wall.
Troy: FUCK THAT GUY! WHERE IS LUKIE?! WHERE IS SLAM MASTER JAM! WHERE IS THAT FUCKER RETRO HIPPIE! I'LL KILL THEM ALL!
?: Hey! Whoa! Calm down big guy. I know that you're upset. I know why you came back here to. I'm here for the same reason. Destruction.
Troy: The fuck are you doing here?
?: I know we have a past, but we have the same enemies. We have the same goals. I thought I could handle this a different way, but it seems the ring has always been, and will always be my calling, so I will dominate it. Join me.
Troy: Why the fuck would I join you?!
?: I'm putting together an army and-
Troy: All I needed to hear.
?: Then let's go. We have an army to build, and to do so, we're going to reach out across the world..
Troy: ...As long as you pay for the fucking trip.

Lady Renegades Locker Room
Lady Renegades Champion Rose Mulligan made her way out of the locker room, only to be confronted by...
Hope Mach: YOU!
Rose Mulligan: Hope. My niece....apparently? What do you want?
Hope Mach: I want to know why?! Why after my mother extended her hand, you still had Miyuki attack her! You so gutless that you couldn't do it yourself!?
Rose Mulligan: Whoa! Calm down! I did no such thing! I haven't spoken to Miyuki in over a week! She said to me that she was branching out, and "joining the army", whatever that means. I had no part in the attack. I promise you.
Hope Mach: Your promises mean nothing! She is family, and you still treat her like garbage! My mother can fight her own battles, I know that much, but I am going to pick this fight myself! I want a title shot against you! I want revenge!
Rose Mulligan: Look, I didn't do it. Kelly Steele was just as confused as I am right now! As for the title shot, you earn it, and you've got it, my niece. Seriously, that's weird as hell.
A dark room
?: I'm glad that I have to all here. I have scoured the roster to form this army. I made sure that you all come from a different place, so those in our way, know that the World itself is coming for them. You're the last piece of the puzzle Mr. Ortega. I want you to join us.
Camilo Ortega: I walk the Path of Heaven. I want no part in the war you wish you rage on Havok.
?: I'm afraid you don't have a choice. I have resources, and I've used them to locate a certain person of importance to you. Your precious "abuela" and your younger self. Don't forget, you're not even supposed to be here. What would you do to keep her safe Mr. Ortega? We have a history remember? You and I were friends once. Join me willingly....or join me by force...I don't care. The point is, you are doing this.
Camilo Ortega: ...What do you wish of me?

6. Havok Television Championship: Takumi Inui beat Camilo Ortega(c) via Heart Punch x Crimson Smash -> Pin -> NEW Havok Television Champion!
7. Singles: Subculture beat Degrees via KO Punch -> Pin
-Razorblade and Maniac managed to beat the Crew in the opening match to earn a shot at the "2v2 Slam Team" Champions Slam Master Jam and Retro Hippie, but they strangely received help from an unlikely source. Troy rushed in and hit the big boot on Amigo, allowing Maniac to hit the Sliced Bread #2 for the pin.
-E1 Climax winner Firebrand X had a fun bout with Bashin Dan next. The youngster put up a good fight as always, but X hit the devastating Fireslide to win the bout.
-After the last match, Rex Razzmatazz, the Havok newcomer, tapped his way out to the ring. He tipped his hat to X and challenged him then and there. Firebrand X made quick work of the flamboyant performer and hit the Fireslide for another win.
-Hope Mach and Christina Angel, not believing Rose Mulligan, made a move towards getting revenge for M's by taking on Momo Miyuki and Kelly Steele. Steele and Miyuki were not on the same page, with Miyuki allowing Steele to get double teamed for most of the match. It looked to be a one sided win, but things got confusing as the Tag Champs Dulce Reina and Demon Masaki II joined Momo Miyuki in attacking Steele, Hope, and Angel. A new Trio unit seems to have formed.
-The Bad Dudes stepped up against the Good Guys once again in tag action. Good News Gary was there, but Takuma Tsusugi and Severide were nowhere to be seen, which seemed to confuse even Gary. Jackson Kain eventually left the ring to in a shocking move, which left Mudslide open to the Macha Ye and the pin.
-Takumi Inui made a big move back to the top tonight after a rousing bout with Camilo Ortega, that saw the Crimson Smasher become a 2-Time Television Champion. Takumi blocked the STO Bomber with the Heart Punch and hit the Crimson Smash on the former World Champion to pin him and take the Television Championship. Ortega shook his hand in respect after the match, but them seemingly with hesitation attacked Takumi Inui. What brought on the turn from the man that walks the path?
-The main event saw a grudge match stemming from the week before, where Subculture picked a fight with the Boss Degrees. Degrees demanded a match after the insult, leading to this match. The Doctor was rusty, but went all out against Subbie, getting bloodied in the process. The now lone Bomber Subculture, used his ungloved fists to drop hurting bombs like never before, ultimately knocked the Doc out with a KO Punch and the pin.
Havok Ring
Subculture continued attacking Degrees. This brought out Trevor Mach. Mach and Subbie duked it out until World Champion Tack Angel ran out to assist, chasing Subculture out of the ring. The Bad Dudes helped up Degrees, only to be suddenly blindsided again, but this time by Troy. Then, Razorblade and Maniac came out to attack. Mike and Amigo tried to help the Bad Dudes, but they were attacked by Severide and Takuma Tsurugi. They were joined by Momo Miyuki, Dulce Reina, and Demon Masaki II, which prompted Hope and Christina to come out and battle them. Mach and Angel were down and out in the ring, when Firebrand X's theme played. He rushed out with Takumi and Dragon Shiryu to try and clear and the ring, but then Camilo Ortega stood in their way, allowing them to be assaulted by this large group. The building was erupting in carnage. Troy held up Tack Angel. Trevor tried to get to him, but Subculture ran back in and smashed him in the jaw, showing that his separation from his Supremacy teammates was short lived. The crowd suddenly went silent as a man in a suit and red towel around his shoulders entered the ring. He stood before a stunned Tack Angel...
Stuart: Hello brother in law. Did you think you were done with me? You took everything from me. You crashed down an empire, and you took one of our own as your "prize". We don't forgive, and we don't forget. You claim to be a hero, a Star Prince. I call you a villain, and this whole system built around you, is also a lie, a horrible, festering lie, that has caused damage to the sport I love, and the sport that established my family name and empire, and this....means...WAR. I found like minded individuals from all over the world, namely 7 different nations, and we're banding together to take over Havok and SAVE Professional Wrestling. I am officially returning to the ring with my army. The 7 Nation Army...

Jeff Andonuts Office
A bandaged Degrees limped into the room...
Degrees: Did you...did you see that out there?
Jeff Andonuts: I did. Sorry that you lost.
Degrees: What? No that! The 7 Nation Army!
Jeff Andonuts: ...Wait what? I stepped out after you lost. What happened?
*5 Minutes Later*
Jeff Andonuts: SWEET MERCIFUL SCIENCE! This is bad.
Degrees: I knew Stuart would try something again, but I wasn't expecting this.
Jeff Andonuts: Hmmm...what should we do?
Degrees: Well, he's not under contract. We could...you know...NOT let him in.
Jeff Andonuts: What do you mean?
Degrees: It's simple. Just cause you WANT to invade and take over doesn't mean we have to...you know....let him?
Jeff Andonuts: ...I don't follow.
Degrees: Any time he shows up, we just escort him out, cause he's not under contract. We don't HAVE to take the bait.
Jeff Andonuts: ...No, I think that's what they'd be expecting.
Degrees: What?
Jeff Andonuts: ...What?
Degrees: So? What IF they expect that? Doesn't change the fact. This literally doesn't need to happen.
Jeff Andonuts: But...he's invading Degrees. What can I do?
Degrees: I just said....JUST NOW!
Jeff Andonuts: ...I think we're going to have to face this head on.
Degrees: Why?
Jeff Andonuts: Your plan is just TOO complicated.
Degrees: What do you mean?! Just don't let him in!
Jeff Andonuts: ...
Degrees: Just...just...just...forget it. Whatever. You're a master scientist, but you just can't get around wrestling logic.
Jeff Andonuts: It's just beyond me Degrees.
Degrees: I know Jeff....I know.
Jeff Andonuts: Besides, I know that our guys can handle this new conflict.
Mort Chosenberg Agency
Jackson Kain barged into the office of famous agent Mort Chosenberg...
Mort Chosenberg: Jackson Kain? What brings a professional wrestler like you to my office.
Jackson Kain: Don't give me that shit Mort! You know I'm a world famous celebrity in MANY fields, but more than anything, I'm the best damn action star in the WORLD! I fired my old agent, and I need the BEST to stage my grand comeback!
Mort Chosenberg: Well, I'm glad that you thought of me, but now is not the best time. My world is kind of crashing down around me due to my "casting couch" methods with leading ladies.
Jackson Kain: Do I look like a leading lady to you? I'm a MAN! FIND ME WORK!
Mort Chosenberg: Why the sudden need for the comeback?
Jackson Kain: I know what you're thinking, and I'm NOT trying to escape Havok before the 7 Nation Army does its damage.
Mort Chosenberg: ...I wasn't thinking that at all.
Jackson Kain: ...Alright, so maybe I am trying to play it smart. So what? I did all I needed to do in wrestling! I want my old career back!
Mort Chosenberg: Alright...I DO have one job that you are PERFECT for. You'll be playing the part of play John Cook, the street-wise chef whose brother was kidnapped by the Mafia. Now the only thing you serve...is vengeance. Jackson Kain IS John Cook IN Recipe for Death II!
Jackson Kain: ......It's the part....I was born to play.
Mort Chosenberg: Really? Can you cook?
Jackson Kain: Not even a little bit, but I need this part! I will reduce my normal fee of $1 million and will work for free. No, wait. $1,000! No. I'll pay you! Damn it. I blew it!
Jackson Kain slapped money down on the table and sulked away.
Mort Chosenberg: ...Mort, you're back in the game!

8. Havok World Championship: Firebrand X[Havok] beat Tack Angel©[Havok] via Fireslide -> Pin -> NEW Havok World Champion!
-The show opened with an interpromotional 6-Man tag, with Havok Trios Champions Weekend Wrecking Crew taking on Ness, Poo, and Sal Paradise. Action packed opener, but it was halted early on as the 7 Nation Army hit the ring and cleared it off the competitors, basically just to show that they could.
-Jackson Kain seemed to have his mind somewhere else in his singles match with WBPW's Jamie OD. The Hooligan out kicked the action star and hit the Penalty Kick for the pin.
-Trevor Mach, the Big Bad King of Clash took on Subculture in the next match. Coming off his match with Degrees, Subbie looked ready to clean the floor with Mach, now punching without his signature gloves. The rules were suited for a boxing background, with Mach getting taken off his feet early on with a KO Punch, but he managed to beat the 10 Count barely. Mach used the clinch and knees to take away Subbie's biggest weapon. The King of Clash was able to take Subbie down 3 times for the TKO victory. Mach celebrated, but a livid Subculture attacked from behind, angry that he could lose in such a way. Mach fought back, but Razorblade and Maniac rushed out to assist Subculture. The 2v2 Slam Team Champions Slam Master Jam and Retro Hippie came out to help Mach, leading to an impromptu Trios match. Subculture evened the score with the help of the 7 Nation Army on the outside, attacking SMJ and Hippie, and opening up Mach to the KO Punch from Subbie and the pin.
-Champion vs. Champion was up next, as Rose Mulligan put the Lady Renegades Championship of Havok against the WBPW Women's Grand Championship of Paula. A great showcase of veteran versus new generation, as Rose Mulligan was able to out wrestle the OG in a high competitive women's match. Paula couldn't keep Rose down for the Sharpshooter, and ate the Bloody Driver for the 1-2-3! Huge history making moment for Rose Mulligan, as she now carried the titles for both Havok and WBPW! The celebration was cut short, as she was attacked by her own former ally Momo Miyuki after the match.
-Titles continued to change hands in the next bout, as The Next Protagonist Cade took on Havok Television Champion Takumi Inui. Takumi had just beaten Camilo Ortega for the title, but wouldn't hold onto it for long. The 7 Nation Army ordered Ortega to come out and cost Takumi the title, distracting Inui long enough for Cade to hit the Rolling PK Thunder for the pin and his first championship, but more importantly, Havok's championship.
-The first of two main events would see Captain Strong defend the WBPW Grand Championship against E1 Runner Up Derek Mach. Something was very different about Derek Mach. He refused to unmask after his entrance, and fought with the cold, methodical style that he made famous under his Void persona. Strong was overwhelmed, in what turned into a bloody brawl, and the Chaos Theory lead to the finish, and the new champion. Derek Mach, the new WBPW Grand Champion.
-The final match of the night would see Star Prince Tack Angel defend the Havok World Championship against the E1 Climax 2017 winner Firebrand X. Firebrand has enjoyed an incredible resurgence, looking better than ever. He had lost to Tack in the tournament, but planned to avenge that loss on the way to capturing the title. The 7 Nation Army tried to get involved again, but Trevor Mach lead out a large group of Renegades to keep them away from the ring. Tack Angel pulled out all the stops, even attempting to CLUTCH THE WRIST with his Constellation Driver, but X kept the WRIST from being CLUTCHED, allowing him to take the move and still manage to kick out. That one mistake from Tack was the opening Firebrand X needed, as he lifted the champ for the Fireslide and the pin attempt. 1-2-3! Firebrand X defeated the Star Prince to claim the Havok World Championship. The redemption of Firebrand X is complete...

Havok Wrestling Update!
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the Tom Jones of Wrestling, and if you want to know..."what's up pussycat"....eh? Eh? Well....I'm gonna tell you. We are at WAR! Stuart is back, and he's assembled a 7 Nation Army to wage war on Havok! Just as bonds were forming with WBPW, a new threat has made it their mission to destroy the top wrestling promotion in the world. Well, we never take that sort of thing lying down do we? We're going to fight back, and it's going to be an all out battle on the next Renegade Nation. We're going to see an 8-Man tag, with two new members of the 7NA apparently debuting in the process. We'll see Hope Mach, Christina Angel, and the returning Iroha take on the Lady Renegade contingent of 7NA. Trevor Mach has accepted the challenge from Subculture for a rematch for the title of King of Clash. This time, the match will be determined by an absolute KO, from here on called Full KO Rules. The match will also be held in the parking lot, surrounded by cars and Renegade onlookers, this promises to be a bloody bout. The main event will see the NEW Havok World Champion Firebrand X teaming with Tack Angel, and the Weekend Wrecking Crew against the returning Stuart, and his 7 Nation Army. It's all out war, plus a word with both the NEW Havok World Champion and the NEW WBPW Grand Champion, our Lady Renegades Champion Rose Mulligan. DON'T! MISS! THIS!

In a nondescript office...
Subculture: Did you "send" for me?
Stuart: Subculture. You surprised me when you jumped in on our "debut". I thought for sure you were done with the team dynamic, and yet here we are.
Subculture: I was surprised, but I saw the writing on the wall. To get what I wanted, I decided to play ball.
Stuart: Well, that's all well and good, but get this in your head right now. You have to be invited to dance....I didn't invite you. The 7 Nation Army is going to be the best, and the most destructive. Razorblade and Maniac are the future, and luckily you didn't do too much damage to their careers.
Subculture: Who the hell do you think you're talking to?
Stuart: I know who I'm talking to Subculture. Do YOU know who YOU are talking to? Things are different now Subculture. I'm taking over. This isn't a joke. This isn't a threat. It's a promise. I promise you, you don't want to get on my bad side. Want to be on the winning side of history? Don't piss me off, and don't let me down. You may go now.
Subculture: .....
Stuart: ...I said go. Now.
Bad Dudes Bar
A solemn Lady's was sitting behind the bar pouring a drink when...
Trevor Mach: Yo Lady, I thought I'd find you down here. You alright?
Lady M's: ...I will be, if I finish this bottle, I won't feel the pain in this surgically repaired knee anymore.
Trevor Mach: Tali...I have something in my pants that is going to make you feel MUCH better.
Lady M's: ...Oh yeah?
Trevor Mach: Yeah. Let me whip it out. Here you go! Your painkillers! Just picked them up from the pharmacy!
Lady M's: Oh...of course....thanks.
Trevor Mach: You should probably drink something with those pills. Here, have a shot of whatever this is. I'm sure it'll be fine.
Lady M's: I like the way you think.
Trevor Mach: The way you're sitting. It looks painful.
Lady M's: Yeah, the hip took a lot of damage too. It hurts to sit...hurts to stand...hurts to move.
Trevor Mach: Well Tali, I know just how to make dat ass feel better....a pillow!
Lady M's: Oh...thanks again.
Trevor Mach: Tali, this isn't like you. You're being all nice and stuff. Where is the anger?! Where is the rage?! Why aren't you trying to kill Momo?!
Lady M's: ...At some point, you really gotta say fuck it. I think I'm at fuck it Trevor. I think I'm finally there.
Trevor Mach: I don't think you have that in you. You're a badass bitch, and you always will be.
Lady M's: .....
Trevor Mach: You got to get better, and then you have to take your shot Lady.
Lady M's: You want me to take a shot? Fine. *pours drink* I'll take a shot.
Trevor Mach: ...That's not...not what I....pour me one too?

Outside Twoson Fairgrounds
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the Lamont Sanford of Wrestling, and I'm here with our NEW Havok World Champion Firebrand X. Firebrand, it's been an amazing comeback tour for you. You won the biggest E1 Climax to date, and you managed to wrest the belt from the Star Prince! You are back on top. How does it feel?
Firebrand X: Everyone has been talking about this, like it's the end of a journey. It never ends. One peak to the next. I've dedicated my life to not just being the best wrestler, but the best fighter in all forms, that is why I use my hybrid style, and why I want fighters of all styles, from all backgrounds, from anywhere in the world to step up. Cross the line I make my laying down this belt, and take on Firebrand X.
Tommy Dukes: I love it! No nonsense from you. You know exactly what you want, and you're throwing down challenges! Most of the time it's the "CHALLENGERS" that do that, but whatever! Now, we have to talk about something not as exciting, and that is the the 7 Nation Ar-LOOK OUT!
As if right on cue, several men and women drove by on motorcycles, with a few connecting with steel pipes on the World Champion. Firebrand X was downed as the group rolled into the parking lot...
Renegade Nation
The show kicked off in a surprising way, as the group on motorcycles rolled into the arena and circled the ring. They all entered the ring together, with the one in front taking off his helmet....Stuart.
Stuart: As if you didn't think we were going to start this thing off right? I considered that little "Showdown" on Mt. Itoi our warm up. We got involved and made a little mess. I was most pleased to see Tack Angel lose the belt, but that doesn't mean we're friends with Firebrand X either. Let me get to our introduction. This is the 7 Nation Army. A bunch of angry, disenfranchised former Renegades, that now assemble under me, and with a new cause, destruction. You've heard it all before I know, but this time it's different, because this time there is no plan B. There is no falling back for me. There is no falling back for any of these men and women. We aim to conquer, and that is the only acceptable outcome. We have Troy, a man who should be Champion, no longer chained, and he's ready to let loose, which is why when he wanted to be in TWO matches tonight for us, I said why the hell not?!
Troy: And let me make something clear! I don't get tired! I don't get hungry! I don't sleep! I don't breathe....unless I've hurt someone. Unless I've asserted my dominance.
Stuart: He is truly superior to all of you in that crowd. Next, we have Takuma Tsurugi and Severide, the Last Sunrise. A silent, but deadly combination. They don't need the mic, cause they're going to show you what they're all about in the ring. They were former tag champs, but they'll get those back. They were lost under Good News Gary, but now they are found, and I will lead them back to the top. Come on up here Camilo, you're next.
Camilo hesitantly stood forward...
Stuart: A man who walks a path....that I don't understand, nor do I care to. It's all garbage to me, but what this man has, is indescribable talent. He's on a new path now. Tell them Camilo. Let them hear you say it...
Camilo Ortega: ...I...walk a new path. I will follow the 7 Nation Army all the way. I don't need Havok, and I don't need the Renegades. You can all....*sigh* kiss my ass.
Stuart: Perfect. Glad that we're on the same page. We also have Razorblade and Maniac over here. These guys, are the future. Razorblade already proved that with a World Championship reign. Can you believe that?! He was months into his tenure with Havok. Maniac is a killer, that's been told not to use his instincts. Please Maniac...use them now. Then we have our Lady Renegades. These women burned every bridge to get here. That means no going back. No giving up. They have one way out of this, and that's victory absolute. We also have Subculture....he's probationary.
Subculture: Hey!
Stuart: Don't fail tonight. That's all it takes. Don't fail. Last, but not least, you have me. Forget everything you know about me. I know most of you have your preconceptions. You've been here before. The invaders at the gates. You think we're the bad guys. You couldn't be further from the truth. See, we're what you really want. Think about it. Ratings are never higher than when the foundation of the sport is threatened. We shake up the status quo, and that is what you want. Brother in law, in me you see arrogance, but really it's confidence. You see evil, but it's really opportunity. You see ignorance, but really it's irony. I will destroy you, and I will take back what is mine. You think you know who I am, but you don't. You don't know who I was before all of this. You've never seen my detirmination, my REAL detirmination. I will NOT be over looked, and neither will they. You think you've all seen everything from this army, but they have been overlooked for too long. Tonight, is the beginning of the end of everything you know. Oh, and one more thing. There are more of us here tonight.
Havok interview Stage
Tommy Dukes: Dukes here again, but this time I'm joined by the Havok Lady Renegades and WBPW Womens Grand Champion Rose Mulligan! Rose, you've made history!
Rose Mulligan: I've done more than that. It's easy to make history these days. Find the right meme and you're imortalized. What I've done, is become the first Woman to hold both of these titles at once, and no one can ever take that away from me. It's more than history, it's legacy.
Tommy Dukes: Well, where do you go from here?
Rose Mulligan: Where do I go? Good question. Kelly Steele is out with a back injury, and Momo is...doing her own thing now. So where does that leave me? Well I-
At that moment, Rose Mulligan was attacked by Momo Miyuki, Dulce Reina, and Demon Masaki II. They pushed Dukes off the stage, and left Rose bloody, pushing her face into the steel grating floor. As the three walked away, the bleeding Rose crawled to the microphone laughing.
Rose Mulligan: Heh....heh...*cough cough* So....it's like that is it Momo? I think you just made a decision for me...and you're not going to like it. Lady M's....Tali....listen to me....listen closely. Come back to Havok! Come back to Havok NOW! Come back, and the two of us can rip these bitches apart! Come back M's! Come back M's! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Jeff Andonuts Office
Trevor Mach walked in as Jeff Andonuts and Degrees were seen talking to the new Havok Television Champion, WBPW's Cade.
Trevor Mach: I heard you were here kid.
Cade: It's good to see you again Mach.
Trevor Mach: What the hell are you doing behind enemy lines?
Cade: Contractal meetings regarding this belt. Since I have become Havok's Television Champion, it certainly changes things for me, but I welcome the challenges and opportunity. Still, a lot of red tape involved.
Trevor Mach: Damn proud of you for winning that title too.
Degrees: Mach, he's from the OTHER promotion.
Trevor Mach: Who gives a shit! Got a lot of respect for the kid here. He hit me hard! Look, see this tooth here? It's fake! You knocked it out! If I knew where it was, I'd give it to you as a trophy.
Cade: I'm sorry about the too-
Trevor Mach: Don't apologize. You've got guts, and that gets my respect. You did what you had to do, and I wouldn't accept anything less. Let me shake the hand of the Television Champion. Listen kid, this sport is unforgiving. It can be cruel and it can hurt. Hell, it sucks a lot of the time. Just know, that I got your back little brother.
Cade: I appreciate that, more than words can express. Thank you Mach. I have to go speak with Mr. Pirkle now, but I won't miss your match later. Good luck.
Trevor Mach: Haha, I'm going to beat a man into a coma. Should be fun!
Degrees: ...Trevor, what the hell was that?
Trevor Mach: What? He's one of the good ones! Reminds me of my son....my doppleganger's son from a parallel wor...no no...my son.
Degrees: I thought you were competitive. Where's the team loyalty.
Trevor Mach: Are you kidding me?! Sign that kid dammit! Who gives a shit what show he's on!
Jeff Andonuts: It's not as easy as all that Trevor.
Trevor Mach: Yes it is. I had your job, and I was better at it! I would have signed him already! Grow a pair and offer him the big bucks! By the way, can I have first crack at the TV Title?
Jeff Andonuts: Now? After all that? No way!
Trevor Mach: Damn! That would have been a good match. Whatever, you guys suck! Maybe bitch less about the kid and worry more about the 7 Nation Army trying to bring you down? Sign the kid Jeff!
Jeff Andonuts: *sigh* Maybe we COULD try and buy out his contra-
Degrees: Don't take the Mach bait Jeff.

4. 5-on-4 Handicap Tag: Stuart[o]/Troy/Razorblade/Severide/Takuma Tsurugi beat Tack Angel[x]/Kinniku Mike/Amigo/Magnum PT via Bridging Capture Suplex -> Pin
-The opening shots of war were fired in an 8-Man tag, as Takumi Inui, Dragon Shiryu, Bashin Dan, and Benjamin took on the 7 Nation Army. Two new members were introduced as none other than Mudslide and Dark Kiva, who came in on his shoulders. Good News Gary tried to talk to Mudslide, but Mud chopped him down and sent him on his way. A hard hitting battle, with the big man Mudslide getting the win after coming down on Benjamin with his Top Rope Splash. Troy was acting as the ring leader for his team, with Ortega looking less than enthused to be apart of the proceedings.
-The Trios of 7NA Lady Renegades clashed with Hope Mach, Christina Angel, and the returning Iroha. The 7 Nation's uprising continued with a brutal one sided assault of the Havok team, using every dirty trick they could to injure and subdue their opponents. The weak link proved to be Iroha, who ate the Peach Buster and took the pin.
-In the parking lot, cars and Renegades circled Trevor Mach, the King of Clash, and his challenger Subculture. Both men wrapped their fists in tape and duked it out in a hard hitting fist fight. The two were falling into the crowd and onto the cars, but the match would only end in an actual KO. Mach managed to take the hits from Subculture, even with his gloves removed, but he may have spit out another tooth in the process...he's got to be running out of real teeth. Mach caught Subbie in the clinch again and let the knees fly, which knocked Subculture to his knees. As Mach was able to hit the Knee Trigger, a hand from out of the crowd hit him in the back of the head with a lead pipe. Subculture hit Trevor with the KO Punch and knocked Mach to the ground. With Mach out cold, Subculture was declared the victor and NEW Havok King of Clash. Subculture took the belt and ripped off Trevor's name plate, celebrating with the 7 Nation Army that had been lurking in the crowd. WBPW's Cade rushed out to try and stop the follow up attack on Trevor Mach, but he was powerbombed onto one of the cars, shattering the windshield and bloodying the young champion.
-Main event time, as Star Prince Tack Angel the Weekend Wrecking Crew against the 7 Nation Army, but with one man down, the Havok World Champion out of action from the attack earlier in the night. The numbers game made it difficult for Team Star Prince, but they fought with heart and gave the Army a run for its money. Troy and Razorblade did most of the heavy lifting, but when Tack was tagged in, Stuart made sure to tag himself in. The leader of the 7NA hadn't lost a step in the ring, using his technical prowess to eliminate the kicking power of the former World Champion. Troy hit the Big Boot on Tack and Stuart followed up with a Bridging Capture Suplex, grabbing the ropes for the 1-2-3. The 7 Nation Army went undefeated on this night. Not a good start to the war for Havok...
Parking Lot
EMTs were everywhere, trying to help the Renegades get to the hospital. Tack Angel rushed to Trevor Mach as he's fighting to get out of one of the trucks...
Trevor Mach: Get me the fuck off this stretcher! I'm fine!
EMT: Sir, you're bleeding.
Trevor Mach: I'M ALWAYS BLEEDING! We all got blood and skeletons inside of us! Big fucking deal! Get off!
EMT: Fine!
Tack Angel: Trevor, you really should go, you don't look so good.
Trevor Mach: Haha, I got it Tack! I look a little bloody. Big deal!
Tack Angel: Your nose isn't where it should be!
Trevor Mach: Fake news! Tack, they fucked with me, and that's one thing, but then what they did to the kid, that really pissed me off! This is blood for blood and by the gallons. These are the old days man, the bad days, the all-or-nothing days. They're back! There's no choices left. And I'm ready for war!
Tack Angel: Oh no. Perhaps you need your medica-
Trevor Mach: Oh these pills?! The ones I'm throwing away!
Tack Angel: Oh dear lord no.
Trevor Mach: We've got shit to do Tack. They want to bring in more bodies for the grinder? We can do that too.
Tack Angel: What do you mean?
Trevor Mach: We're getting the band back together, and it's going to be Too S-
Tack Angel: Cease and desist.

Recipe for Death II Movie Set
A man was hanging off the edge of a sky scraper, as Jackson Kain came into focus, clad in an apron and chef's hat...
Henchman: PLEASE! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!
Jackson Kain: Did you...or did you NOT...poison the soup I gave to the President?
Henchman: It wasn't me! I swear!
Jackson Kain: Then WHO!?
Henchman: I DON'T KNOW!
Jackson Kain: Well then..."See you Ladle".
Jackson Kain stomped the fingers of the man as the Director yelled cut.
Director: Kain, I didn't really feel that last line.
Jackson Kain: See you ladle? That's going to be my big one liner?! Are you kidding me?! I've had some GREAT one liners in past scripts. This one is no good.
Director: Well, you're a chef, and you're killing that guy. We thought you'd need a chef pun.
Jackson Kain: I can EASILY come up with better one liners.
Director: Like what?
Jackson Kain: "Sear you later" "Spat-u-later" Cheese you grater".
Director: What would you say if you threw a man off a cliff?
Jackson Kain: Chef puns or no?
Director: ...Not.
Jackson Kain: "You've been grounded. "It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a dead guy.
Director: What if you fed a guy to a lion?
Jackson Kain: "This won't hurt, or am I lyin'?"
Director: What if you rip a guy's a heart out?
Jackson Kain: "You're under cardiac arrest"
Director: Wow...those ARE good. Let's..uh...take a lunch...while we rework the script.
Jackson Kain: Fine...I'll be in my trailer.
?: Actually, I have a job that's right up your alley.
Jackson Kain: You?

Happy Halloween Renegades! The War comes to Threed, where the zombies once again gather to watch wrestling and hopefully not eat anyone. Now, our record is getting better on that. I think only three people became zombies last time, and that was totally not our fault. If someone gets a nose bleed in the crowd, we can't help that. Every audience member gets a free jar of fly honey, so that's on you. The show opened with Subculture heading out to the ring. Subbie was all smiles with the Clash Championship in his hands.
Subculture: Well, look at this treat I picked up for Halloween. I hate to say I told you so, but I did, I'm the NEW King of Clash. I don't think that really needed to be said to be honest. It should have just been a fact that you've known for quite some time. I have always been the hardest hitter, and without the gloves, I hit THAT much harder. I can cause concussions with my fists. I can unleash massive, blunt force trauma....all over your face. My finisher is called the KO PUNCH! If anyone was the King of Clash it was ALWAYS me. This belt, means nothing to me. I just like that I have it and Trevor Mach doesn't. In fact, to show you how little this belt means to me...
Subculture laid the belt down on the mat and pulled a sledgehammer out from under the ring. He raised his hands high and brought the hammer down, smashing the title belt in one blow.
Subculture: THAT is what I think of that belt. That title belt was a lie until I had it to begin with, and another thin-
Trevor Mach's theme began to play, with Subculture smiling and signaling as it hit. Razorblade, Maniac, Severide, and Takuma Tsurugi hit the ring, obviously indicating that Subbie intended to lure out Mach. He appeared on the screen instead with other figures in the darkness...
Trevor Mach: Hey asshole! I'm up here! So, you think you can smash a title belt and piss me off?! Don't act like that's an accomplishment. Just about anything can piss me off. Like clocking me with a fucking pipe! That pisses me off! You really didn't want to do that! See, I'm not going to act like I have some "other side" to me. I've been a wizard and an MMA enthusiast, but I've always been the Bad Man. What I WAS though, was medicated, but I'm not anymore. I'm ready for another war, but I've brought some friends back with me...
Subculture was then surprised to see Trevor Mach appear on the stage...
Trevor Mach: What, you thought I wasn't going to show? How else could I bring back the 87's?
Suddenly, Sal Paradise, Ishihiro Tomo, and Grind ran into the ring from behind and attacked the 7 Nation Army. Trevor ran down and joined in the fight, with Mach delivering a headbutt that busted open Subculture. As Subbie retreated, Trevor pulled a bandana our from his back pocket and collected Subculture's blood.
Trevor Mach: The 87's are back! Oh, are you wondering about this bandana? THIS says I'm the King of Clash bitch! Your blood right here, along with all the other people I've defeated...or will defeat. You want this? Well, I want a rematch next week! A Cage Match. BOOSH!
After the commercial break, Tommy Dukes caught up with the 87's.
Tommy Dukes: Wow, what a return for the 87's! What brought you back Sal?!
Sal Paradise: What brought me back!? This exciting stuff going on right now was just too much to pass up! Jamie and I left because we wanted challenge, well it looks like the challenge is back here!
Tommy Dukes: Where is Jamie?
Sal Paradise: ....Uh...he's...he's doing his own thing! Don't you worry though, cause Saludice is back full time! 87's 4-A Long time at least!
Grind: I never left! You guys drove off without me in Anahauc! You have ANY idea how hard it is to get over the border these days!? Not hard actually, I had my legal papers, BUT STILL. I take a little too long in a gas station bathroom and THIS is what happens!
Ishihiro Tomo: ....
Trevor Mach: Ishi My Hero Tomo doesn't talk, only destroys. You know this. They're back, because it's time for war! Blood for blood, and I'm going to get mine in that steel cage!
Tommy Dukes: Well glad to get some great news after a couple of bad weeks. We'll be looking forward to that cage rematch! Welcome back 87's!
Trevor Mach: Yo Saludice, hold up. Where IS the Hooligan?
Sal Paradise: Man, I don't know what happened to him, but he and Derek are like....relapsing on old habits. Derek never takes off the Void mask, and Jamie...he's acting like the Killing Joke again. It was getting strange in WBPW, another reason I took off.
Trevor Mach: ...Derek said something to me last time I talked to him. He said..."The next time you see me, it won't be me." He said that he had died.
Sal Paradise: Well what comes after that for Void?
Trevor Mach: ...Undeth...damn.
Lady Renegades Locker Room
Hope Mach entered to see Rose Mulligan stretching...
Hope Mach: You don't actually plan on going out there alone do you?
Rose Mulligan: I'm the Double Champion. I have the titles of two different promotions. That makes me the bar. I'm going to set an example for how you all should be dealing them.
Hope Mach: You're crazy. You don't have your back up anymore. You are on your own here.
Rose Mulligan: Am I? Your mother...she saw last week's episode?
Hope Mach: ...She did. I saw her watch it more than once.
Rose Mulligan: Well...did I start the fire?
Hope Mach: ...I don't know.
Rose Mulligan: I guess we'll find out. Of course, you could back me up to...niece.
Hope Mach: ...I wouldn't count on it.

3. Lady Renegades Non-Title Handicap: Dulce Reina[o]/Demon Masaki II beat Rose Mulligan via Sweet Driver -> Pin
4. Tag: Stuart[o]/Troy beat Firebrand X/Tack Angel[x] via Roll Up -> Pin
-Mudslide took on the 2v2 Slam Team Champions in a Handicap match, but it was more of a problem for the champions. Mudslide thrashed them around the ring and came crashing down on Hippie with the Top Rope Splash and the pin. After the match, a man in a plain purple lucha mask, faded t-shirt, and plaid pajama pants ran down to the ring to attack Mudslide. He punched and kicked away, but to no avail. Realizing it wasn't working, he left as mysteriously as he appeared.
-Kinniku Mike, Amigo, and Takumi Inui were set to battle the 7 Nation Army, with a mystery partner, but the partner was late to show, making this a 3-on-4 uphill effort. Dark Kiva seemed to be coordinating the battle, until a familiar theme kicked in. The grapple monster Los Tiburon returned and turned the tide...a lot of turning there. The 7 Nation Army lost the momentum, but gained it back with weapons on the outside that lead to a brutal DQ.
-Lady Renegades were up next for a Handicap match, as Double Champion Rose Mulligan battled the Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions Dulce Reina and Demon Masaki II. Rose was against the wall in this effort, as the tag champs wore her down, busting her open and relishing the opportunity. Rose almost pulled off a nearfall, but Momo Miyuki pulled Masaki's foot on the ropes. Reina stomped the back of Rose's head hard, and hit the Sweet Driver for the pin and the win. The two continued to batter the Double Champion, with no one coming out to make the save. Suddenly, an injured Kelly Steele rushed out, attacking Momo and her group, and ejecting them from the ring. Kelly Steele is still standing with Rose, and the trial by fire earned Rose Mulligan a lot of respect.
-Main event time, as Tack Angel teamed with the new Havok World Champion Firebrand X against Stuart and Troy. Turns out we got yet another handicap match, which happened way too much on this show...didn't realize at first. Firebrand X seemingly jumped off the side of the ring when Tack tried to tag out. This gave Troy the chance to hit the Big Boot and Punt Kick on Tack. Stuart tagged in and rolled up Tack for the 1-2-3. Another win for the 7 Nation Army, but why did Firebrand X leave the ring. We'd soon find out, as Firebrand X removed his mask to reveal Jackson Kain in disguise. The action star has joined the 7 Nation Army. The big screen showed the army yet again battling the real Firebrand X backstage. He tried to make it to the ring, but the damage was done. Behind the mask you could feel intense anger, as he stared down the laughing 7 Nation Army...

Back Alley, Parts Unknown
From the darkness off a back alley, a figure approached, wearing a leather jacket with no shirt underneath, still wearing his signature shorts and Chuck Taylors. It was Trevor Mach, who lit up a cigarette as he opened a chair and sat, staring straight at the filming Lakitu...
Trevor Mach: Subbie? You watching right now? I know you are. We all watch the product right? This is for you, so listen closely. Like I said before, I've been a lot of things before, but I've always been the Bad Man. I like fun. I'm a funny guy. I can be quite the clown. But man oh man, if you underestimate how much damage I can cause it's going to get you hurt. It was a little known secret that I liked to mop up the blood of myself and my opponents onto this cloth, this sash, or bandana, whatever you want to call it. It's like a trophy to me, and it was good at keeping the anger at bay, but it's not enough. Not anymore. Do you know about people like me Subbie? We're the Celts, we come from Celtland, a place where we're known as "fighting demons"...and yet most are still Catholic....I still haven't worked out that contradiction. We fight and fight, and we never stop. I'm relentless Subbie, and I'm coming for you in that cage, and when I'm done, I'll take this chair and wrap it around your head. Do you hear me Subbie? Oh, I sure hope you're paying attention, because I will NOT be held responsible for what happens to you. Hehe....*blows smoke* Boosh.

7 Nation Army Locker Room
Subculture was shadow boxing as Stuart entered the room...
Stuart: You're getting ready I see. Good.
Subculture: I'm always prepared.
Stuart: You think so? If that were the case, you'd be on top of the mountain right now. You never would have been knocked off. You're too into your own hype.
Subculture: I'm the best! I can't help that you can't accept that!
Stuart: Confidence is good, but what you have...is dangerous. You're blinded to the danger you've put yourself in, and what that means to our growing movement.
Subculture: How am I blind to this?! I've fought Mach all over the world! My first World Championship came at his expense. I beat down the big bad wolf. Remember?
Stuart: Is that how you remember it? Cause I see it differently. It took a lead pipe to the back of the head to keep him down.
Subculture: I'M THE BETTER ATHLETE! LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT MY PUNCHING POWER!
Stuart: All of those things appear to be true. You are the better athlete, but he's the better fighter. I've watched tapes. I've studied all of our opponents like chess pieces. I've been moving all the pawns into place, but you are the unexpected addition, and I've come here to do you one favor and warn you not to take him lightly.
Subculture: You see me? Have you seen what I can do? Are you afraid I'm going to derail your plans?
Stuart: Being afraid isn't a weakness. It's smart when you want to survive. You have no fear, which doesn't make you more of a man, it makes you an idiot. I've seen you beat Trevor Mach, like I've never seen anyone beaten before....and the man kept....coming....after you. Remember that. Listen for once. I'm trying to give you a chance here, but if you fail...unlike the rest of 7NA, you won't be protected. You will be fed to the wolves.
Jackson Kain: Hey Stu, my man! We tricked em' last week didn't we?
Stuart: We sure did Kain, well done. Tonight, we'll dominate again.
Jackson Kain: You think Firebrand X is going to be pissed after what's happened the last two weeks?
Stuart: That Champ wants his chance at revenge. He's not going to get it tonight. Did you see the snow out there. It'd be a shame if some Renegades didn't make it to the show on time.
Subculture: HEY! Enough! I'm....I'm trying to concentrate over here.
Stuart: Come on Kain...our "probationary member" has got a lot to think about.
Subculture: .....
Snowman Stadium Hallway
Rose Mulligan was seen talking with Kelly Steele...
Rose Mulligan: I want to thank you for helping me. I know you're still injured and-
Kelly Steele: Stop there. I did that for me. I'm tired of looking like a good for you. I did what I because I felt like it. Because Momo deserved it. Because now the Double Champ owes me one. I was on my way up before I settled into my position with you and Momo. I'm ready to shed that. I used to rock, but the music has died. I'm bringing it back, but I'm not joining the 7 Nation Army to do so, so looks like we're stuck together.
Rose Mulligan: I'm fine with that.
Kelly Steele: ...Really? No arguing? No bickering?
Rose Mulligan: I don't care what you do with your life Steele, and if the day comes that you want to challenge me, you will get your match. Tonight though, we have other business to attend to. We need to beat them, and I'll do it alone if I have to. I'm not trying to make friends or make amends. I'm just doing my job.
Kelly Steele: Say what you want, but you won't be doing it alone. I'm in.
Around the corner Hope Mach was listening...
Road to Snowman Stadium
Christina Angel was driving as fast as she could to get to the Stadium on time...

Christina Angel: I know what I'm doing! I'm a great driver.
Tack Angel: Christina, I love you, but I'm on the verge of wetting my pants with this craziness! Please, for your Father, slow down....just a tad?

After the match, Bless and Brooks declared they were quitting, which is find because I could never do a duplicate of Alexa Bliss justice, and I'm not even going to try. During the celebration after the match, the goof in the purple luchador mask came out, this time sporting a fanny pack with his pajama pants. He pulled a gold star out and placed it on Hope's nose before moonwalking away.
-The 87's reformed last week, with this being the first match back, taking on the 7 Nation Army. Last Sunrise, Maniac, and Razorblade were in top form, but the momentum of the returning team was too much, as the group suffered their first loss of the 8-Man tags when the rampaging monster Tomo-kun hit the Brainbuster on Maniac for the pin. The Army tried to take over the ring after the match but Tack Angel helped throw Tomo out of the ring onto the Army, which sent them running.
-Women's Double Champion Rose Mulligan and Kelly Steele joined forces to take on the Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions in non-title action. Rose and Kelly had the crowd on their side, which infuriated the tag champs. Momo Miyuki ran out with a pipe and clocked Kelly Steele, using her injuries for target practice. Rose tried to make the save, but she was taken out 2-on-1 by the champs. Rose kept trying to get up only to be taken down again by one of the laughing trio. Suddenly, Hope Mach ran out to even the odds, and helped Rose and Kelly run off the 7NA trio. Rose tried to thank her, but Hope left as quickly as she appeared.
-The Havok World Champion Firebrand X couldn't make it to the arena due to being snowed out, which left the Havok team coming up short against the 7NA power team of Stuart, Troy, Jackson Kain, and Mudslide. Los Tiburon's return last week was good for Havok, but Dark Kiva responded by trying to to trip him up this week around, essentially making it 2-on-4.
-Main event time, as Subculture put the King of Clash title on the line against former Champion Trevor Mach. The word title no longer being used to represent a physical title, but the bloody bandana still in possession of Trevor Mach, who wrapped it around the right arm of his leather jacket. Subbie angrily shadow boxed in the cage as Mach set down the chair he was bringing just for Subculture to have a smoke. The bell rang, and Subculture immediate went for the KO Punch. Mach took two before laughing and ducking Subbie's other hurting bombs. Mach blocked a punch and trapped Subbie in the clinch, forcing him against the cage and landing the knees big time. Subculture countered back with body blows, which lead to counter strikes from Mach, and back, and forth. Mach got the back off his head reopened with a stiff shot. Grimacing through the crimson mask, Mach held it together and jabbed several times leading to Subculture hitting the mat. A near 10 count lead to Subculture refocusing and dominating several minutes with hart hits. He grabbed Mach by the head and grated it against the cage. Subculture looked to be winning out, but he missed one big KO Punch and was lifted up for the Burning Machismo. Subbie tried to get up, but Mach hit the Knee Trigger and kept him down for the 10 Count. Trevor Mach won the match and reclaimed the title of King of Clash. The crowd went wild as Mach collected Subculture's blood with the bandana. He climbed to the top of the cage and celebrated with the Renegades, only to remember what he had promised Subculture. He came back to the ring with the chair. The half conscious Subbie flipped him the bird, but instead of giving him the SMAAAAAASH!, Mach pushed him back down and placed the chair over him, sitting down and celebrating even more to close the show.
7 Nation Army Locker Room
Razorblade: I told you not to trust him! That bastard stabbed me in the back, and then tried to jump on the bandwagon when he saw the chance! Let me go out there and challenge Mach next, and then we take care of Subculture once and for all.
Stuart: No, I have a new plan. He fought well out there, yet he didn't heed my advice. His ego is bruised, and he's going to want to fight again. I say we let him. He'll keep the Big Bad Wolf from trying to blow our house down. In the meantime, it's time for stage 2. We made our presence felt so far, but Havok is unifying to fight us. We need some real feuds to heat this up. We go after each and every single Renegade. You all decide among yourselves who gets who, but I already have in mind who to send after the Havok World Champion. He's probably livid right now. Just how we want him.
Razorblade: What about Tack Angel?
Stuart: Oh the "Star Prince"? You leave his fate to me.
The 87's Locker Room
The 87's surrounded Mach to congratulate him on the big win...
Sal Paradise: Now THAT was impressive!
Grind: Just looking at you is making me feel some of your pain right now.
Ishihiro Tomo: ....*nod*
Trevor Mach: I needed that nod Tomo-kun. I needed it. Good win by the way guys. Someone give Tomo a raw steak before he kills someone! Haha!
Tack Angel: So....collecting the blood the of your opponents eh? Since when has-
Trevor Mach: Yes, your blood is on here too.
Tack Angel: ....Yikes. Still, it was an electrifying climax.
Trevor Mach: Last time I had one of those involved a cattle prod during sex!
Tack Angel: Are you....are you alright? You're not on your meds and-
Trevor Mach: I'm fine Tack. I've got it all under control.
Tack Angel: Just making sure buddy. Congratulations.
Trevor Mach: Thanks bro. Appreciate it.
As Tack walked away to celebrate with the 87's, Trevor turned to the mirror and stared at his crimson mask, before flashing a demented smile.

DK Stadium - New Donk City
Jeff Andonuts: I want to thank you all for coming today. The Renegades, WBPW fans, and the press, but you least of all. We're here to announce our first foray into New Donk City, with another big crossover event with WBPW, because money talks, and these shows have made both promotions A LOT of money.
Mr. Pirkle: It seems that Havok has found itself in the throws of war, so we thought it'd be the perfect time to strike while the iron is hot and kick you while your down.
Jeff Andonuts: That's funny.
Mr. Pirkle: Wasn't trying to be.
Jeff Andonuts: What?
Mr. Pirkle: We will see war waged all over this card, as our athletes tangle with theirs once again. Our young super nova Cade will even be putting YOUR Television Title on the line in a 4-Way match including your guy, a 7 Nation Army guy, and our own Jamie OD.
Jeff Andonuts: True, but WE will have our Women's Double Champion Rose Mulligan defending the title, but NOT against one of your women. That's a real shame...for you.
Degrees: Guys! Let's just get this over with. The rosters are already wanting to get at each other.
Mr. Pirkle: You kidding? It's your OWN roster you have to worry about. Talk about Civil War.
Jeff Andonuts: Time to open this up for questions...and I'll only take them from Tommy Dukes. GO TOMMY!
Tommy Dukes: Uh yeah, I want to hear about this battle between Mach and Subculture! Is it really true?! Are the Kings of Clash going to go at it again, but this time in an Exploding Ring Deathmatch?!
Jeff Andonuts: You heard right Tommy. Subculture demanded a rematch, and Mach said he'd oblige under these rules.
Subculture: If you want me to blow your ass up, I'd be more than happy to Mach! You were damn lucky before! It won't happen again! How much I'm going to hurt you...I think I almost feel sorry for you. Almost.
Trevor Mach: ...*lights cigarette* Funny, I don't think about you at all.
Degrees: Mach, you DID see the no smoking signs right?
Trevor Mach: Yeah, but I don't give a fuck.
Degrees: *sigh* Of course not.
Tommy Dukes: How does this match fit with the Clash Rules?
Degrees: Well basically, it comes down to this. Anything goes, including explosions I guess, but the only way to win is to keep the opponent down for the 10 Count. So....Last Man Standing...with explosions. This is an 80's match. Dammit Mach, you did that on purpose didn't you?
Tommy Dukes: What about this match between Tack Angel and Stuart. I hear it's No Rules.
Tack Angel: That was at his behest. I was more than willing to face him in one-on-one action. I was hoping we could talk this out. I've always wanted to just talk this out. We're family after all. He won't allow it. He said when he was done, I'd be thanking him for the stipulation. I'm not sure what he meant by that. I was literally like "Huh, I wonder what that means." Hey, where is he anyways?
Tommy Dukes: I want to know abo-
Jackson Kain: Who cares what you want. As the acting spokesman for the 7 Nation Army, I want to direct to Firebrand X, who actually managed to make it here today and NOT get beaten up OR snowed in. I'm impressed. Look Firebrand, I lived the life your living last year. I won the E1 Climax and then I won the Havok World Championship. It was FANTASTIC! Someone had to play spoiler eventually though. This year, it gets to be ME! The 7 Nation Army is the new hotness. We've got the best vision, direction, and with me, the best talent. That belt is going to go where it belongs, around MY waist.
Firebrand X: ...You think a beating will stop me? You think your tricks and pranks to keep me from the arena will stop me? I'm not playing games here Kain. I don't crack jokes. I don't smile for the camera. I don't worry about my good side for the cameras. Don't think I don't know what Stuart has attempted. He wants the Demon. He knows that Demonbrand lead to my previous downfall, and he wants it back. It's buried. It's gone. You had all better be careful though, because what was emerged in his place, is far, far more dangerous, and you don't want that.
Jackson Kain: Is that right? I think we do. I kind of want to see that!
Firebrand X: See this instead, the Havok World Championship. This is as close as you or the 7 Nation Army will EVER get to it.
Jackson Kain: And I thought you said you didn't tell jokes.
Nerma: Let's get to the main event! Yeah, I'm butting in, so put a sock in it Dukes! This will be the first of these crossover events to feature the women in the top spot. You have Rose Mulligan defending against Momo Miyuki! I'd say as a woman I'm excited, but I'm not just defined by what I got in my pants, so I'll say as a fight fan I'm excited! What I want to know, is if the winner will give WBPW a crack at this Double Championship?
Rose Mulligan: Step up, and get knocked down. My former ally will find that out quickly and painfully.
Momo Miyuki: Depends on how much money you offer me. When the Army gets those belts, WE call the shots. I call the shots.
Rose Mulligan: You really think you can beat me?
Momo Miyuki: I have it on good authority the WBPW Women don't like you. They will be against you. The crowd will be against you. The 7 Nation Army is against you. I will be against you. Kelly Steele won't save you. You'll be all alone.
Rose Mulligan: ...You should stack the deck more...to give yourself an ACTUAL chance.
Jeff Andonuts: That concludes this press conference so-
Subculture: MACH! Stop smirking at me! YOU'RE DAMN LUCKY! IT WAS A MIRACLE YOU WALKED AWAY WITH THAT BELT! IT'LL BE A MIRACLE IF YOU WALK AWAY AT ALL FROM THIS!
Trevor Mach: Why wait bitch? Come and get it.
Jeff Andonuts: No no no! No coming and getting it please!
Tommy Dukes: Hey wait! We didn't hear from the WBPW Grand Championship competitors!
Ness: .....
Derek Mach: .....
Mr. Pirkle: There....you got their quote. Feel better now?

Rest Stop to River City
Christina Angel was returning to the vehicle when...
Tack Angel: Daughter, we have to talk about your driving.
Christina Angel: Dad, we've been over this. I drive just fine.
Tack Angel: No no, I feel like you don't take it seriously enough. I mean look at me. Driving....is the scariest thing I've ever faced. It haunts my nightmares. Being made to drive...has taken years from my life.
Christina Angel: I think you're exaggerating Dad.
Tack Angel: Am I Christina? Am I?
Christina Angel: Yes...yes you are.
Tack Angel: Well daughter, while we were in New Donk City, I got some help in making a little Driving PSA that I think you need to see. Hopefully you'll learn something, and maybe, even have a little fun.
Christina Angel: ...What are we watching it on?
Tack Angel: Oh yeah...uh....
Christina Angel: Use my phone.

Renegades Locker Room
Jeff Andonuts and Degrees had the entire roster minus the 7 Nation Army inside the locker room for a meeting...
Jeff Andonuts: Guys, that's why we need leadership around here. You know how long it took to get you all in one place at one time? I had to offer free cake!
Amigo: Yeah, where is that by the way?
Jeff Andonuts: The cake...was a falsity! I needed you all here to talk about the current situation. We have a competitive rivalry going with WBPW, and that's made both companies VERY profitable. Ratings are high, and merch has never sold better. We can handle that. This 7 Nation Army though, we believe it could be the threat that undoes us, and I say that having seen EVERY threat that's come before it. Stuart is smart, shred, and dangerous. We need to come together. We need leadership. That's why the opening Battle Royale will determine who will lead this ragtag group of Renegades against the Army. You will be the Renegade Captain.
Amigo: And get cake?
Jeff Andonuts: Steve, go get him some cake! Now, for obvious reasons we can't have the 87's Captain the Renegades, or it would just go to Tack Angel.
Trevor Mach: What am I? Chop liver?
Jeff Andonuts: When you heard about the match, you told me to go "F" myself, before you were even told you weren't in it.
Trevor Mach: Right...still...cheap shot. Well, I've leaving then.
Jeff Andonuts: *sigh* ...and Firebrand X didn't want-
Firebrand X: I fight my battles myself. I'm not a leader. I will fight along side you or against you, but don't look to me to be a leader.
Jeff Andonuts: Shame...you'd make a good one Firebrand.
Firebrand X: ...
Jeff Andonuts: I want the competitors in this match to realize that this is important to us, and the Renegades that lose, need to rally around this person no matter who it is. We need this guys. Don't let me down.
Tack Angel: I uh...honestly can't speak for Trevor, but 87's are just as much into this fight as all of you. The Star Prince will stand with the Renegade Captain. You guys will too right?
Grind: ....I'm sorry what? Sorry, I was thinkin' bout graffiti vandalism.
Tack Angel: You always are. Sal? Well, he's not here either. Tomo-kun? Nod once if you're in agreement?
Ishihiro Tomo: .....*nod*
Tack Angel: Honestly, I don't know why we don't just unleash Tomo on all of them. Couldn't hurt. He'd enjoy it I bet.
Jeff Andonuts: ...That IS a thought.
Hallway outside the Locker Room
Trevor Mach was walking away when he ran into Subculture...
Subculture: What the hell is wrong with you?
Trevor Mach: Right now? You're in my way, and that's REALLY annoying. Step aside.
Subculture: You're stapled and stitched together. The bruises are still fresh. You're nowhere NEAR 100%, but you want to put us through an Exploding Deathmatch?
Trevor Mach: You ain't looking so pretty yourself Subbie. First broken nose? Happy to be a part of that. You didn't have to agree.
Subculture: You're not getting away with that fluke. I'll fight you any place and any time.
Trevor Mach: You want this don't you? This bloody bandana. This simple raggedy cloth I have around the old jacket arm here. You know what it means. That belt was just a belt, but this is real to you and me. You gave your blood, the fuel that lets us fight, to try and take this from me. It's quite the prize isn't it? I tried to compare it to taking scalps, but Tack said not to do that for some reason.
Subculture: I'll take that rag from you, if it matters so much to you, but more than that, I'm going to blow your ass up.
Trevor Mach: Why wait. I've got some fireworks in my locker.
Subculture: What is wrong with you?! For years, I've been trying to figure it out!
Trevor Mach: Maybe all those hard shots to the head from you? Nah, they weren't hard enough. Now get out of my way.
Subculture: Not...hard enough? How about this then!
As Trevor walked by, Subculture used a pipe to smash Mach in his right ankle, dropping him to the floor.
Subculture: WHAT'S WRONG MACH?! YOU HURT?! COME ON AND TELL A JOKE! SAY SOMETHING FUNNY! Heh...if you get up from that one, you're a bigger fool than I thought. Stay down you broken bastard. STAY DOWN!
Trevor Mach: Heh...I'll be seeing you you son of a bitch.
Catering
Sal Paradise was looking for some food, when an unexpected face arrived...
Sal Paradise: Well look who it is! What are you doing here?
Jamie OD: I was told by Mr. Pirkle to scout you boys tonight, unofficially of course. I'm "really" here to back up the Lofton kid, who was invited to watch the show in the VIP box.
Sal Paradise: Damn, that's better seats than what I got back here. It's good to see you. Look, I wanted to tell you about moving back here but-
Jamie OD: Oi! I get it! I understand, so don't fret Saludice. You did what you had to do, just like I do what I have to do. I think this is going to work out just fine. Lovekick, tearing down both houses.
Sal Paradise: Glad to hear it man. I'll see you later.
Jamie OD: Later mate!
Tack Angel: Sal, there you are. What's going on?
Sal Paradise: Oh Jamie's going to turn on me.
Tack Angel: What?!
Sal Paradise: All the flags were present. He's going to backstab me.
Tack Angel: All the flags?
Sal Paradise: Yeah, they were all there.
Tack Angel: Are you sure? Was it like, angry like this? Hey Swift, give me an angry subtle heel thr-
Swift: You want me to talk shit to shit?! I don't think so! >:C How was that?
Tack Angel: *sniff* ....Thanks buddy...*sniff*
Sal Paradise: He's totally going to turn heel on me.
Tack Angel: Oh...well darn.
Sal Paradise: Yeah.

2. 87's vs. 7NA Trios: Mudslide/Razorblade[o]/Maniac beat Sal Paradise[x]/Ishihiro Tomo/Grind via Fisherman Buster -> Pin
3. Lady Renegades Trios: Rose Mulligan/Hope Mach/Kelly Steele beat Momo Miyuki/Dulce Reina/Demon Masaki II via DQ
4. 6-Man Tag: Jackson Kain/Troy/Subculture[o] beat Firebrand X/Tack Angel/Trevor Mach[x] via KO Punch -> Pin
-The Renegades opened the show facing each other, in a Battle Royale designed to designate the Renegade Captain, who will try and lead the team against the 7 Nation Army. Kinniku Mike looked to be an early favorite, but the combined might of Shiryu and Takumi took him out, but they were in turn eliminated by Amigo. It was every man for himself, except for one, who tried to coordinate with his friends in the ring...Bashin Dan. They shocked everyone, when Dan, Slam Master Jam, and Benjamin were the last three remaining. The three friends put on a really good battle before Dan managed to eliminate both Benjamin and Slam Master Jam, making him the winner and the Renegade Captain. A shocking victory for the young man and former King of Clash. The veterans and up and comers alike now look to the young Bashin Dan to lead.
-The 87's took on the 7NA in Trios action, which you know in Anahauc means "Screw the rules, here's a brawl". The 87's were looking to continue their return hot streak, but that was halted from the outside, but not by the 7NA. Jamie OD jumped out from the crowd and clocked Sal on the outside with the Penalty Kick. He rolled him back in, for Mudslide to land his Top Rope Splash. Razorblade grabbed him up for the Fisherman Buster and pinned him for the win. Jamie OD of WBPW, stabbing Sal in the back. Now he called that, so why wasn't he more careful?
-Trios time for the Lady Renegades now, as Women's Double Champion Rose Mulligan team with Kelly Steele and Hope Mach against the 7NA. Another hard fought encounter that ended abruptly, when the spoiled and selfish Dulce Reina used her belt to attack Rose, forcing a DQ. The Lady Renegades were battered down by the 7NA, until Christina Angel and Iroha came to make the save, but did they come to help everyone, or just Hope? The Double Champion is slowly, but surely rally the Lady Renegades to her side by her actions, but will they back her in her title match with Momo Miyuki?
-The main event saw the Havok World Champion Firebrand X team with the Bad Dudes against three of the top members of the 7NA, men they would be tangling with in New Donk City. Mach was absent for most of the match, but limped his way out seemingly just to mess with Subculture. Jackson Kain made it clear to Firebrand X that he was in top form with their back and forth offense. Tack Angel too was able to hold his own against the group, but Mach on one foot was too slow to avoid a Punt Kick by Troy. Subculture tagged himself in and hit the KO Punch on Mach before pinning him for the 1-2-3. A dominant win that put even more hurt on Mach, and another big night for the 7 Nation Army. Will the Renegades be able to turn it around in New Donk City?

Degrees Office
Trevor Mach: YOU WHAT?!
Degrees: I'm not clearing you. Look at you! You're limping! Your eye is swollen shut! You're literally bleeding on my desk right now!
Trevor Mach: That was already there! Anyways, why can't you just pop me back in that purple stuff. Remember? You used that to fix me when-
Degrees: That was....a placebo.
Trevor Mach: Huh?
Degrees: It was a psychological test. It made you feel like you could do it.
Trevor Mach: ...Like Space Jam with MJ's secret stuff?
Degrees: Uh...yeah...sure...like Space Jam.
Trevor Mach: ...The slight grape smell?
Degrees: That's real...and it's probably not going away.
Trevor Mach: Good...I like grape.
Degrees: You need to accept that you can't have this ma-
Trevor Mach: Fuck that Degrees. You've got no balls!
Degrees: Excuse me?
Trevor Mach: You heard me. You used to be a bad ass, but you've lost your balls.
Degrees: I'm your boss Mach. Do-
Trevor Mach: I don't have a boss. You write my checks and I make you money by sacrificing this body, and I say when I will or when I won't fight. You will NEVER have that say over me!
Degrees: ...
Trevor Mach: Go ahead and blink Doc....or fire me...I'll go fight Subbie in the street outside...probably draw a bigger crowd.
Degrees: Your new reputation is well deserved. They're calling you the Big Bad Wolf. Heh...I remember having that passion. Guess I lost it along the way. Alright Mach, sign this release waiver, and you can get yourself blown up.
Trevor Mach: Done and done.
Degrees: *sigh*
Jeff Andonuts: He was right in a way.
Degrees: Are you questioning my balls too?
Jeff Andonuts: No Degrees, but we used to be brave. You lead a team to save the world on several occasions. I was proud to be apart of that. I joined my friends in stopping Giygas once upon a time. Those were brave things. Look at us now.
Degrees: ...Retirement takes the bite out of you.
Jeff Andonuts: That guy is going to fight to hang onto his fire until he dies. When did we decide not to?
Degrees: ...How do we get it back?
Jeff Andonuts: ....With Science of course.
Lady Renegades Locker Room
Hope Mach was taping her fists when...
Lady M's: Just what do you think you're doing?
Hope Mach: Mom? I'm getting ready for my match.
Lady M's: I don't mean about that. You were helping Rose Mulligan.
Hope Mach: I was helping the Double Champion against the 7 Nation Army. In any case, we already know that Momo attacked you without Rose's say so.
Lady M's: I don't give a shit. After all of this, you just want to forgive her?
Hope Mach: No. Forgiveness takes action. I'm just allowing her to try. It helps Mom. It helps to forgive. Forgiving others. Forgiving yourself. It might get you out of that bottle you've crawled into. This is the first time you've stepped in a locker room in weeks and you're drunk and angry. The story has changed Mom. It's us against them, and THAT is where you thrive. You told her before you were attacked that you respected her. She wanted you to come back so the two of you could take on the 7 Nation Army. It's time to let that hate go. Think of what you could Mom?
Lady M's: I'm retired Hope.
Hope Mach: No. No you're not. Don't quit, not now. You still have so much more to do. Don't stop now.
Lady M's: ...I'm leaving.
Hope Mach: *sigh* Mom.
Renegades Locker Room
Bashin Dan found himself surrounded by all the Renegades in the Locker Room. Sweat dripped from his head as he panicked, from the new position he was in, as Renegade Captain.
Amigo: Green boy, you going to say something or what?
Bashin Dan: What?!
Benjamin: I think they want you to say something my friend. To raise morale for the troops as we enter the battle with darkness and-
Bashin Dan: I got it. I can do this. I just need to be brave. Alright...so...I don't know how I ended up in this position but....but....but-
Tack Angel: "Maybe it was destiny".
Bashin Dan: Right! Maybe it was destiny, but...it's hard to say. One day, you're at the bottom of the card...and the next...you're here. But I want to stress that....that....
Tack Angel: "Unity will be our strength against this heinous force".
Bashin Dan: Unity will be our strength against this heinous force! We need to come together, put our differences aside, and focus on the same goal. We need to build the perfect deck that will-
Tack Angel: You're going to lose them.
Bashin Dan: The perfect strategy, and go out there, and defeat the 7 Nation Army! LET'S DO IT!
Amigo: ....Meh...good enough.
Firebrand X: Good of you to help the kid with that Tack.
Tack Angel: Star Prince is always willing to lend a hand, like I am with you Firebrand. You want some back up out there tonight?
Firebrand X: I will handle this alone. Not because of ego, but to show them that I am not afraid, and not playing games.
Tack Angel: I understand.
Firebrand X: You have your hands full as it is. You face the leader tonight. Crush him, and you crush the 7NA. The 87's could be the saviors in this case if you win...no pressure though.
Tack Angel: I hadn't thought about any of that...the Star Prince...needs to go get some air.
Firebrand X: ...Heh.
Havok vs. WBPW: Blood Enemies
Havok and WBPW clash once again, this time in the big city of New Donk City, but they weren't the only factions in conflict. Within Havok, a Civil War has erupted between the Renegades and the 87's taking on the 7 Nation Army. Tonight, WAR from ALL SIDES...maybe even above. Watch out...birds are everywhere...
Inside the Ring
Jackson Kain, the #1 Contender for the Havok World Championship was in the ring with mic in hand and a smirk on his face.
Jackson Kain: Boo me all you want, but I'll never say anything nice about this city in order to get a pop. I don't care where I am, nor do I care where you live. It's ridiculous that you're booing me right now because I hate New Donk City! It's not like I'm going to your house, kicking down the door, and telling you your house is shit! Look, I'm where I am because I want to be the best! I was going to go back to the movies, but some serious scandals are making that REALLY undesirable right now! I came back to get my fire, and the 7 Nation Army reminded me of the Champion I was one year ago. Firebrand X, this isn't personal, but it's going to happen! I WILL become Havok World Champion once aga-
At that moment Jeff Andonuts and Degrees made their way to the ring, confusing Kain...
Jackson Kain: ...Fellas...can I do something for you?
Jeff Andonuts: We wanted to talk to you, not as enemies, but as friends. After all we've been through together, I feel like you owe us that.
Jackson Kain: I owe you? You think I owe you? I don't owe you anything.
Degrees: Kain, hear us out...please.
Jackson Kain: ...You guys have five minutes...less if I don't like what I'm hearing.
Jeff Andonuts: Degrees, we used to be close. We were arguably the best team ever, in that we saved the world, like, a bunch of times! That has to count for something!
Degrees: You were my best friend. You gave your life to save us. My wife is still here because of you.
Jackson Kain: Yep, I really gave my life...I'm totally dead right now.
Degrees: Don't act like it didn't happen.
Jeff Andonuts: We want to bring our fire back too. Let's do that together. Let's bring the team back together and thwart the 7 Nation Army!
Jackson Kain: Leave the Army and team up with management?!
Degrees: ...We're willing to step down...if it means we get you back with us. Come on buddy...let's save the day again.
Jeff and Degrees put their fists together, motioning for Kain to follow suit. He looked at them, heard the cheering crowd, and promptly left the ring to a chorus of boos.[/b]

-The Renegades took on the 7 Nation Army in a heated opener with interesting rules. Team Battle Royale rules, with the last men standing from either team being declared the winner. Powerhouses like Troy and Razorblade made it look easy, but the determination of the young Bashin Dan, and the unlikely assist from 7NA's Camilo Ortega, allowed Dan and Dragon Shiryu to survive the onslaught and eliminate Troy with the Rozan Shoryu-Ha to win the Battle Royale. Bashin Dan was congratulated by his for being a great unlikely leader. Amigo showed his acceptance by offering half his sandwich.
-Demon Masaki II and Dulce Reina retained their Tag Team Championships against the team of Future Past, but only with the help of a mysterious new ally. The masked woman tripped up Hope, who fell into Demon Masaki, who scooped her leg for a brainbuster variation and the pin. After the match, the woman ripped off her mask to reveal...Loveshocker Kimura! The dark skinned Edo woman with a black kimono and wild unkempt hair, jumped into the ring and kicked away at Hope and Christina, but made sure to point out that she held exceptional contempt for Hope, hitting a Gory Special flipped into a Facebuster, which she calls the Shocker Crash. Kimura is a big name on the Joshi Puro scene, having recently joined the Loveshockers in NEPW, it looks like she has come to Havok, but maybe not as an ally to the 7 Nation Army after all, as she refused to celebrate with them after the match.
-The young WBPW star Cade captured Havok's Television Championship, but keeping it was going to be the real challenge, as he faced Mudslide, Sal Paradise, and Jamie OD. Sal and Jamie were in the start of an inter promotional feud, which had them focusing on each other, which meant that the kid had to stand up to the vicious Mudslide. Narrowly avoiding a Top Rope Splash, Cade noticed that Sal had taken down Jamie, and whipped him into Mudslide, so he could hit the Rolling PK Thunder and score the pin, securing the title in WBPW's hands once again. Sal and Jamie continued to brawl after the match, leading to big a pull apart between Havok and WBPW.
-From multi-man Television to multi-man Tag, the unlikely duo of Slam Master Jam and Retro Hippie had the monumental task of trying to defend against the Weekend Wrecking Crew, Last Sunrise, and AKI-BITE, who were also the WBPW Tag Team Champions. Would they be able to do the impossible and retain the titles? Do dreams REALLY come true? No. Last Sunrise won, when Tsurugi hit the Top Rope Lariat on Hippie for the pin. The 2v2 Slam Team Championships...which will probably be renamed again...are in the hands of the 7 Nation Army.
-The heated match up was up next, as Star Prince Tack Angel, and the Starlights in his Constellation would stand up to his brother-in-law, the leader of the 7 Nation Army...Stuart....or not. Stuart did not appear for his match, with Troy coming out instead. Troy was brash, calling Tack names and demanding the match. Tack Angel was caught off guard by the switch, but accepted none the less. Troy and Tack were old rivals, having some of the bloodiest brawl in the old EBW, and this match brought that bloody instinct back for the Star Prince. Tack hit the Constellation Driver, but without the WRIST CLUTCH, Troy survived with a 2 Count. He came back strong, battering Tack in the corner before hitting the big boot over, and over, and over, and over again. He finished Tack off with the Punt Kick and pinned him for the win. A huge win for Troy, but where was Stuart, and was this always his plan?
-The WBPW Grand Championship match would see Derek Mach defend against Ness, in a dream match for the WBPW crowd, who have been waiting to see a Mach vs. Ness showdown. A quiet and solemn Mach kept his mask on as he approached Ness with the belt. He seemed to hand it to him before going on the attack. A classic encounter, that showed Ness trying to defeat the monster the way the fans loved, but Ness couldn't stop the monster this time, as Mach hit the Chaos Theory to retain the title.
-The blood feud continued, as Trevor Mach and Subculture clashed once again, but this time in an Exploding Ring Deathmatch. Of course a second ring had to be assembled outside, where Renegades flooded to try and get close to the barred off area. Subculture and Mach were both injured, but they were extreme with the violence in this one, doing every thing they could to stay on their feet and avoid the explosions. Subbie landed KO Punches, but couldn't keep Mach down. He managed to finally do so with the help of a chair, but freaked out when he struck the mat trying to hit the evading Mach. The ring didn't explode, and Subculture let out a sigh of relief...just long enough to fall into Trevor's Burning Machismo. *BOOM!* The ring exploded to the crazed delight of the Renegades, as a referee counted the 10. Trevor Mach won the Deathmatch and remains the King of Clash. Mach rubbed some of the explosive residue onto the bandana before tying it back onto his jacket.
-The Havok World Championship match played semi-main, as this year's E1 Climax winner and World Champion battled last year's E1 Climax winner and World Champion Jackson Kain. The stakes were medium well, as a Kain win would put the crown jewel in the hands of the 7 Nation Army. A heated opening with Kain and Firebrand X trading big moves in a slow start that sped to a crescendo of back and forth finishers, seeing who could take more damage. Kain was looking strong and confident, but the ego got the better of him. He posed to long before trying to hit the Shadow Kick. X caught the kick, and lifted him up for the Fireslide. 1-2-3! Firebrand X retained the belt, and kept it out of the hands of the 7 Nation Army, thanks to his devastating new finisher. Jackson Kain looked despondent as the fans booed him. He looked around before looking at his fist like he did earlier. He walked to the back slowly as the Renegades threw trash at him.
-The main event would see the Lady Renegades go to war over the Double Championship. Rose Mulligan made history by claiming both titles, and now Momo Miyuki, her former ally, had come to claim it. Rose had underestimated Momo in the earlier stages, as this Edo killer, showed fire we hadn't seen before. A blood bath ensued, with Rose relying on what she learned from her mother Bloody Rose, to survive this death match mentality. Despited Momo hitting her finish, she couldn't keep Rose down. She kicked and punched, but the Double Champion arose to her feet screaming down her opponent, before lifting her for the Bloody Driver and the pin. A great defense by Rose Mulligan. After the match though, Dulce and Demon Masaki II ran out to attack. Hope and Christina tried to make the save, but Loveshocker Kimura stopped Hope again, and distracted Christina. Kelly Steel tried to help as well to no avail, as they attacked her injured arm and leg. The crowd went mental as Lady M's theme began to play. The Lady Renegades OG ran down to the ring with a bat and clocked Momo Miyuki, sending the tag champs running. She looked down at Rose Mulligan....before offering her hand. The crowd were on their feet with excitement as Rose Mulligan took her hand and stood side by side with M's. A simple nod was all that was needed to show Rose and the Renegades that Lady M's was back and ready to unleash hell on the 7 Nation Army.

Jeff Andonuts Office
Jeff held his head in his hands as Trevor Mach and Subculture argued on the other side of his desk.
Trevor Mach: You want another shot?! I blew you up, and you want more?! Hell, I'm impressed!
Subculture: Shut up! I don't want to impress you! Look at me! I have burns all over my body, and STILL here I stand, willing to DIE if necessary to beat you!
Trevor Mach: Oh no, look at those burns! Boo hoo! Look at my face! Look at these scars all over my body!
Jeff Andonuts: Please don't take your clothes off.
Subculture: I don't need to see that! I already know I'm more extreme, more hardcore, more willing to push it to the limit then you EVER will be!
Trevor Mach: NO ONE pushes it to the limit like me Subbie! I make a habit of doing things that people say I can't do. Walk through fire...water-ski blindfolded. I once used defibrillators on myself, and it gave me a massive erection! I've pulled shards of glass out of my fucking eye. Erection? Yeah, not so much! I've jumped from a high-rise building...using only a raincoat as a parachute...and broke both legs upon landing. And I still had to pretend I was in a fucking Cirque du Soleil show!
Jeff Andonuts: I don't know about that last one. Are you sure you did that? When? Why? Yeah, I think WHY is the most important question here.
Subculture: You've got bravado. You've got machismo. You've got all the superficial bullshit from the 80's you hold so dearly. But look at you. You're a mess. You're beat. You're sore. You're tired. You can barely stand without leaning against that table, smoking that cigarette like it's still the "cool" thing to do. But you're not me. You don't have what I have. You don't have the heart that I-
Trevor Mach: I drove a car off a freeway on top of a train, while I was on fire. Not the car. I was on fire!
Jeff Andonuts: ...You're intense...and insane. What does any of what you're talking about have to do with wrestling?
Trevor Mach: I'm out of my damn mind Subbie. It's not a statement. It's not bravado. It's a damn fact! I am the KING OF CLASH, and that's fucking awesome, and I intend to stay the KING OF CLASH!
Subculture: You think it's awesome? I want this to take it away from you, but why do you care? Why aren't you gunning for the World Championship? Because you're a has been!
Trevor Mach: Has been? The World Championship is the mountain top Subbie, but what fun is the mountain top? You're there, and you look down on everyone, waiting for the challenges, but I'm down here, in the trenches. I'm down here where the action is. This is where I belong, and to me, this is what matters. That's no joke Subculture. Look, I used your whole name, so that's how serious I am.
Subculture: No, you're joke, and you always have been, and I-
Jeff Andonuts: GUYS! Listen to me. You may have convinced Degrees to clear you for the Blood Enemies event, BUT I am will not clear another match between you two! Listen, this title of yours, the rules have to be more clear! You're been fighting in the parking lot, in a cage, and an exploding ring! What other match could you possibly have, and what do you even think the rules are anymore?
Trevor Mach: It's simple, you take the opponent down and they stay down. I'll fight anyone, anyplace, and anytime. If you don't clear a match for us, well then, I'll see you outside the Arena during Renegade Nation. How does that sound?
Subculture: ...I'll be there.
Jeff Andonuts: ...Oh boy.
Renegades Locker Room
The Renegades gathered once again, to vet their supposed new "Captain" Bashin Dan. The win at Blood Enemies helped, but the rookie was still in a leadership position in a room full of veterans.
Bashin Dan: Uh...guys I-
Amigo: Stop. Put your cards down. You're always sorting through those cards like this is some game, but it's not a game kid.
Bashin Dan: My deck, helps me focus. I'm trying to formulate a strategy to-
Kinniku Mike: Uuuuu! He said stop so stop!
Bashin Dan: I...uh...no.
Kinniku Mike: Excuse me?
Bashin Dan: NO! I won that match, and I'm the Captain of the Renegades! You might have the experience and the miles on the road, but I have heart. I won't ever give up! I'm brave!
Kinniku Mike: YOU'RE BRAVE?! Prove it!
Amigo: Kid, if you want to prove yourself, you're going to meet us in the ring. The entire Weekend Wrecking Crew, in a 3-on-1 Tag. If you survive for 10 Minutes, you might just prove something.
Bashin Dan: ....I'll do it.

Havok Training Center
Lady M's was hard at work training, having fit herself with a knee and elbow brace so she could attack the heavy bag. That was when...
Rose Mulligan: M's...we need to talk.
Lady M's: What's to talk about? I got work to do. Only work out I've gotten in weeks was curling my drinking arm.
Rose Mulligan: No seriously, we need to talk.
Lady M's: You can talk. I'm going to hit things.
Rose Mulligan: I want to know why you did what you did? Why did you help me?
Lady M's: ...*sigh* Look, Hope came to me, and she was saying something or other about forgiveness. I don't really remember what she said because I was drunk and not paying TOO MUCH attention, BUT something she said struck a chord...what it was...I don't remember.
Rose Mulligan: So what you're saying is...you don't know why you helped me?
Lady M's: ....Correct.
Rose Mulligan: Does this mean you're going to take me up on my offer? You're going to team with me and tear apart those bitches in the 7 Nation Army.
Lady M's: ...Yeah, I guess I am. Should be fun. That's all the words you're getting....as of right now....no more...staring now.
Rose Mulligan: Heh...you're crazy. I don't need your words, just your fists. I'll see you later...Tali.
The Mach Residence
Hope Mach came into the house to find her father covered in ice packs, smoking a cigarette.
Hope Mach: Dad, look at you.
Trevor Mach: I know. Where'd all this ice come from?! I passed out in the recliner and wake up like this! I bet it was Tack. He's always "put some ice on it" and shit. What a dick!
Hope Mach: Dad, that's a good thing. I mean look at all your new scars!
Trevor Mach: Are you saying I won't be crowned prom king? Good thing I'm already married then! Aha!
Hope Mach: Dad, I'm serious! You're killing yourself out there all of a sudden! Why?!
Trevor Mach: I found my fire Hope. All my years rasslin' and I've been looking for myself. I used to be a cocky young prick with a hat. Then I tried to be the best at MMA too. I tried being just about everything I was picking stuff up along the way, and learning, but I was never satisfied until now. This shit I'm doing now, this is the culmination. This...is my final form.
Hope Mach: ...I get it...you like getting into fights, but you need to pace yourself! You need to rest! You need to recover and-
Trevor Mach: Your mother told me you were talking sense and shit, so I came prepared. You keep talking, and I'm going to put in my ear buds and listen to-
Hope Mach: DAD PLEASE!
Trevor Mach: Whoa! Calm down Hope. I get it OK? You're worried about dear old Dad, but I can handle this. I know it might not look it, but I've never felt more alive. You're afraid I'm going to die young, but life is too cruel for that. I'll die miserably achy at 90 something, and you want to know why? I HAVE to outlive Tack!
Hope Mach: You're scaring me with all of this.
Trevor Mach: It's important to me...but so is being your Dad. So I'll TRY and heed your advice more alright? I'd get up and give you a hug, but my back is killing me, and again....mountains of ice.
Hope Mach: ....*sigh* Alright Dad, I have a compromise. You keep doing what you're doing, but you have to train with me to better yourself so you're not stuck under a pile of ice all the time.
Trevor Mach: It really is all the time isn't it? I swear that damn Star Prince is an ice ninja! Alright Hope, where do we start?
Lukie Yoga Dojo
Trevor and Hope were doing stretches on the yoga mat, with Mach trying not to lose his cigarette.
Lukie: Deep breath....and stretch!
Trevor Mach: Damn Lukie, I got to admit, I thought this was all bullshit, but as it turns out, you're not completely a hack fraud all the time.
Lukie: Uh...thanks....and I'll keep giving you lessons....as long as you guys won't tell Troy where I'm at alright?
Trevor Mach: That dude wants to murder your face SO BADLY! HAHA!
Lukie: ...I know....*sniff* I know.
The Angel Residence
Tack and Christina Angel walked into the house after a long trip home...
Christina Angel: Mom, we're home!
Tack Angel: I think I still have Troy's shoe print on my face. Hey Amy, I couldn't talk to your brother because-
Stuart: Because I was here.
Tack Angel: What?
Stuart was sitting on the couch beside an uneasy Amy. In Stuart's arms were baby Christina and Rebecca.
Tack Angel: Amy...girls...you-
Stuart: I thought it was long over due for me to come over and visit the family. I wanted to see my sister and my nieces. You guys never come to see, so I invited myself over. Hope you don't mind Tack.
Tack Angel: ...Don't hurt them Stuart.
Stuart: What?! Hurt them?! Is that...AHAHAHA! You think I'm going to hurt these beautiful little darlings! They are my family too you idiot! Isn't that right Sister?
Amy Angel: Tack...don't do anything.
Stuart: Sorry I wasn't there to face you, but I wanted you to think I was there so I could be here. Been here for days. I made spaghetti and you missed it! It was delicious!
Christina Angel: Uncle Stuart, please-
Stuart: You....you're a wonder aren't you. I'm holding you here, and yet there you are....you're own big sister right? This is getting ridiculous. I don't want to hurt you either....although...I bet it would make Tack REALLY mad wouldn't it? I've never see Tack Angel REALLY mad. I wonder what that's like. I wonder what it takes to push the buffoon off the edge. I know what makes ME mad. Collapsing my families' legacy....stealing my sister away from me....polluting the Stuart bloodline. I have to hand it to you...you've done everything possible to ruin my life Tack.
Tack Angel: I've done nothing to you. I've never meant to hurt you. Do not hurt my family.
Stuart: Again...do you REALLY think I'd hurt your children to get to you? You think I'd hurt my dear SISTER?! ....You know I just might after all...but not tonight...not on a full stomach. Going to go walk this off. You all have a wonderful evening. Tack...remember this...I can take from you....whenever I want...and I will....I'll take it all, before ending you last...or maybe I won't. Ha...this is fun! Nighty night Angel Family!
Christina Angel: Mom, are you and the girls alright?!
Amy Angel: We're fine. He really just put on a show for Tack. Before you got here he-
Tack Angel: AH!
Amy Angel: Tack?
Tack Angel: That....THAT BASTAAAAARD!
Outside in the hallway...
Stuart: Heh...so THAT'S what that sounds like.

Jeff Andonuts Office?
Jeff was packing up his desk along with Degrees as Tommy Dukes entered...
Tommy Dukes: What are you guys doing?
Jeff Andonuts: We're packing it up.
Tommy Dukes: What?!
Degrees: We've been doing this too long. We decided it's time to get our fire back.
Tommy Dukes: That's been going around I hear. But, you OWN the company!
Jeff Andonuts: Not anymore I don't.
Tommy Dukes: Again....WHAT?!
Jeff Andonuts: I made the scientific choice here, and I sold to a man with more money, more connections, and he knows how to do this better than I ever have. I'm a man of science. Besides, Degrees was always the captain. I'm done trying to be his boss.
Degrees: I talked to my wife, and I remembered who I used to be. I miss that. I want it back.
Tommy Dukes: Well then...good luck I guess...but...who now owns Havok?
Ryan IQ: That would be me.
Tommy Dukes: AH!
Havok: Renegade Nation
Arena Ring
The show kicked off with the entire 7 Nation Army stable in the middle of the ring, soaking up boos. A smug Stuart grabbed the microphone.
Stuart: Well well well, what a difference a couple of weeks makes. this is the arena this army formed, and we've already made great strides towards taking over I think. We have guys begging to join us, and put on one of our brand new 7NA arm bands, which yes, are for sale. We have the Havok 2v2 Slam Team Championships....which will go back to being called the World Tag Team Championships, because these titles are not jobber fodder joke belts. They show that Last Sunrise is the top tag team in the WORLD! We HAVE had some set backs though. Camilo Ortega...remember...remember why you're doing this. I think you Abuela would want you to keep that in mind.
Camilo Ortega: ...I'm walking the path...of the 7 Nation Army.
Stuart: That's what I like to hear. What we need though, is for you all to see just how incredible this group really is. Razorblade, you've been patient, but don't worry, I have a special job for you. Subculture...is not here right now. He's got stuff going on with the "Big Bad Wolf" outside, and that's fine by me. The man was blown up, and he just keeps coming. Consider my respect earned Subculture. You're a far more dangerous, deadly, and committed man than I thought, and I'm lucky you're on board. Troy, oh Troy, you are the crown jewel here. Unburdened by "Lukietty", you have become the unstoppable force that was once World Champion. Remember who beat you for that title? I do. I know my history. Tack Angel beat you at Victory Explosion IV. You just beat him, and I think you beat an even better Tack Angel than the one you faced all those years ago. YOU will be the missile, the weapon of mass destruction, that I send at Firebrand X. Bring us the Havok World Championship. Oh wait, I forgot about one big blemish, speaking of the World Championship. Jackson Kain. You failed us Kain. This army is forged in unity, and normally I'd be more...forgiving. HOWEVER, I saw the wavering spirit you had. I saw regret in your eyes. You are supposed to be a selfish super star, who looks out only for yourself but-
Jackson Kain: But...that's not who I am. I'm starting to think it's a sickness that World Championship. You win, you become addicted to it, and when you lose it, you lose yourself. I was on top of the world one year ago, but it wasn't just because of my own power. It was because I had friends, fans, and a team. I betrayed all those who supported me, and it got me nowhere. I thought joining you guys would give me back that spark, but I was wrong. I want looking in the wrong place. These people are my spark. They always have been. They made me a celebrity. They made me who I am. Without them...I'm nothing...just like all of you.
Stuart: I don't care Kain. I don't care what you say. It's falling on deaf ears. See, these people don't really know what they want yet. They have to be shown. People prefer dominance. They want to be ruled. Just look at the election process. People elect politicians who will rule them like kings, take away freedom and choice. They all secretly want it. It's not even that much of a secret anymore. A guy gets elected that loosens that grip and half the world loses its mind! So, the 7 Nation Army is what they want, and what they're going to get. What they don't need is a phony waste of space like you. We're going to show you what happens to traitors of the 7 Nation Army, and you're not going to li-
The crowd went crazy, as two figures appears in the stands. Jeff Andonuts and Degrees, wearing their old Jet Havok costumes. They rushed to the ring with bats in hand and helped Jackson Kain fight off the 7 Nation Army. Jeff and Degrees put their fists together, with Kain joining them. Jeff handed Jackson a new wrist band. With it on, the second time they put their fists together, they were enveloped in light. Their costumes changed with Degrees and Andonuts donning green and yellow respectively, while Jackson Kain changed from black to red, the colors of leadership...
Degrees: How do you like it 7NA? You have new players on the field now. Warriors of Justice rising from their slumber! The three of us will fight you, and anyone else threatening Havok or the World itself!
Jeff Andonuts: How do you feel Kain?
Jackson Kain: Reborn...again. But red?
Degrees: You earned it Kain. Now, tell them who we are.
Jackson Kain: ...WE...ARE.....METAL HAVOK!
Havok: Renegade Nation
Orange Monday Night Combat Arena, Orange City
Renegade Television
1. Trios: Sal Paradise/Grind/Ishihiro Tomo[o] beat Severide[x]/Takuma Tsurugi/Maniac via Brainbuster -> Pin
- Unsanctioned Street Fight: Subculture beat Trevor Mach via KO Punch -> NEW Havok King of Clash?
2. 3-on-1 10 Minute Challenge: Bashin Dan beat Kinniku Mike/Amigo/Magnum PT via Time Limit Reached
3. Lady Renegades Non-Title Tag: Rose Mulligan/Lady M's[o] beat Demon Masaki II/Dulce Reina[x] via Rolling M's -> Pin
- Unsanctioned Locker Room Fight: Trevor Mach beat Subculture via Knee Trigger -> NEW Havok King of Clash?
4. Tag: Troy[o]/Mudslide beat Firebrand X[x]/Tack Angel via Punt Kick -> Pin
-The 87's took on the 7NA in a Trios opener, that saw the unstoppable pitbull Tomo-kun score a win over tag champion Severide with the Brainbuster. After the match, Sal Paradise saw a laughing Jamie OD in the crowd, and tried to get to him, but the Killing Joke quickly escaped.
-A crowd gathered outside as Subculture shadow boxed. Trevor Mach rolled in on his chopper and flicked his cigarette at Subbie before throwing some heavy punches. Both beaten warriors, weren't competing in a sanctioned bout, but they were both just a determined to win. Mach threw Subbie against a car and attempt to hit the Knee Trigger, but Subbie moved, and Mach shattered the car light. As he stumbled back Subculture hit the KO Punch and knocked him to the ground. He pushed a bunch of heavy containers on the downed Mach. He then grabbed the bandana from Mach's jacket, declaring himself the new King of Clash, but was it legitimate?
-Renegade Captain Bashin Dan had the biggest test of his short career in the form of the entire Weekend Wrecking Crew. He had to withstand the best of the best for 10 minutes, to see if he was "brave" enough to be the Captain for a roster of veterans. Dan was battered and bleeding, as the trio effortlessly tagged in and out, but no matter what they couldn't keep Dan down for the 3. The more he was hurt, the more fired up he seemed to be. Finally, Amigo tried to end him with an Olympic Slam, but Dan escaped and revered it into a Brave Clash. He hit the Clash, but before he could try and pin the time limit was reached. Dan survived, but he might have actually won the whole thing given more time. The Weekend Wrecking Crew helped him to his feet and hoisted him up, endorsing Dan as the Captain.
-The sisters Lady M's and the Women's Double Champion Rose Mulligan have joined forces, with their sights set on the women of the 7 Nation Army. Their first match as a team saw them compete against the Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions Dulce Reina and Demon Masaki II. The brash champion team underestimated their opponents, as the sisters took them to their limits. M's was in top form, doing her best to protect the elbow and knee, until the end when a vicious Rolling M's elbow was what it took to keep Dulce Reina down for the 3 Count. Does this mean the sisters get a shot at tag belts?
-Subculture was celebrating with members of the 7 Nation Army in the locker room area, when Trevor Mach kicked open the door, and demanded the fight continue. Subculture threw a shot, but Mach dodged it and landed a series of knees. The rest of the Army backed away to let them duke it out one-on-one on the orders of Stuart. Mach threw Subculture into the lockers and hit the Knee Trigger, putting a dent in one of the doors, and laying out Subculture. Mach took back the bandana before asking which one of the army was next. Before they could answer, the 87's rushed in to save Mach from himself.
-The main event saw Havok World Champion Firebrand X and Tack Angel join forces against Troy and Mudslide. An odd, but powerful combination, Troy and Mudslide, had the advantage, but X and the Star Prince fought back. It was looking good for the Renegades until Stuart arrived to taunt Tack Angel. The taunt left Firebrand open to a Top Rope Splash from Mudslide, and the Punt Kick from Troy. 1-2-3, and Troy has pinned the Havok World Champion. The mind games continue, as Firebrand's first month as champion continues to be tumultuous.

Ryan IQ's Office
Tack Angel: So Jeff, I-
Ryan IQ: Hello Tack!
Tack Angel: AAAAHH! Ryan?! What are you-
Ryan IQ: I'm in charge now! Jeff sold me the company! Haha!
Tack Angel: .....AAAHH!
Ryan IQ: Oh stop it! You know this can ONLY be a good thing! I just need something from you...an update on what's going on.
Tack Angel: A what? An update? You bought the company, and you don't know what's going on?
Ryan IQ: ....Tack...where do you think I've been the last few years?
Tack Angel: Oh right, you were in prison. I'm sorry, I forgot. That must've been awful.
Ryan IQ: Awful? Best years of my life! I was moved to white collar prison after I snitched out the Stuart Syndicate. Years of tennis, massages, conjugal visits, and swimming pools.
Tack Angel: ...Sounds great?
Ryan IQ: It was! I spent all my time making money too. You wouldn't believe how much they pay you to be a guest speaker! I took that money, reinvested it, and now I'm worth more than I EVER was before. So now, Havok has deeper pockets, plus you know I have the expertise for this sort of thing.
Tack Angel: Do I know that?
Ryan IQ: Look Tack, just as long as we're not in the middle of some conflict with a rival promotion at the same time as a member of the Stuart family trying to get revenge on Havok, we're going to be juuussst fine!
Tack Angel: ....AAAAAHHHH!!!

Ryan IQ: Hello Renegades, I'm Ryan IQ, the new owner of Havok. I have purchased this company with a vision in my head. I want to explore new avenues, and reshape wrestling for the future. I see the future, and I actually want to look to the past, the way wrestling used to be. Some time ago, the world seemed a lot bigger. Different promotion all around the world, claiming to be the best in the region, but always looking up to the World Champion as the cream of the crop. It was a territory system, and to me, that was the only time any fan should actually care about where wrestling matches are taking place. "Oh man, they're wrestling where I'm from", makes no sense, if they just go to the next city the next night, and then the next, and the next. Right now, Eagleland has seen a resurgence of territories, and I think that's awesome, but what if we tried something different. What if, these territories were all a part of a bigger brand? I have taken the first steps. I have staked a financial claim in VBW, 3'dPW, and East and West Twoson Pro. I have a stake in New Edo Pro Wrestling as well, which is why Havok is back here in Edo right now, on the grounds that we don't destroy anything. From now on, Havok, will be the centerpiece of the Havok Wrestling Alliance. Suck on that WBPW! Wait...I mean...we're honored to be competing with you at this Edo show. I'm Ryan IQ, and wrestling will never be the same. Also, Stuart, please come to my office. We REALLY need to talk.
Outside of Demonhead
A long line stretched out of the arena, as Havok World Champion Firebrand X approached...
Firebrand X: What's going on here?
Fan #1: They're having trouble getting everyone in after what happened.
Firebrand X: ...What happened?
Fan #1: The 7 Nation Army demolished Firebrand X's locker room! Hey...that's you!
Firebrand X: .....
87's Locker Room
Sal Paradise: I don't mind that you're changing in here Firebrand, but I admit, I'm disappointed to find out the horns aren't real.
Grind: He didn't ALWAYS have that mask Sal. PLUS, he takes off the mask and he's Demonbrand...WITHOUT HORNS!
Sal Paradise: ...Maybe I don't watch the product so much...
Firebrand X: The Demonbrand....is gone, but not forgotten. One thing remains...when I'm pushed...I become someone else...I become something else. Tonight, Troy is going to see that, the 7 Nation Army will know not to screw with Firebrand MAX.
Sal Paradise: Don't you mean Firebrand X?
Firebrand removed his mask, revealing his face underneath, with limited red face paint, showing more of his face than ever. He ties red tassels to his arms, and used red paint to leave a hand imprint on his chest.
Firebrand X: No....I mean Firebrand MAX.
Sal Paradise: ...I think he forgot his name.
Grind: ...Seriously Sal?!

8. Havok World Championship: Firebrand MAX(c)[Havok] beat Troy[Havok] via Fireslide -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-The opening contest saw teams collide for the Havok Trios Championships held by the Weekend Wrecking Crew. With the growing roster, we've seen several more team matches, increasing the stock of these three belts even more. 7NA, Weekend Wrecking Crew, Metal Havok, and the 87's put on a super hot opener that saw the newly reformed trio of Jackson Kain, Degrees, and Jeff Andonuts immediately establish their team dominance, when Jackson Kain pinned PT following the Shadow Kick to win the match and the straps. The 7NA grimaced as their ejected member Kain got one over on them. Metal Havok have found that fire again.
-Razorblade represent the army against Havok's Captain Bashin Dan in singles action. The young lion was able to beat the clock against the Crew recently, but the damage was evident in the match, as Razor exploited his injuries. However, it took Razorblade hitting a second Piledriver to actually keep Dan down for the 1-2-3. A dangerous situation for Dan, but a big win for Razorblade and the 7 Nation Army. After the match, he tried to lift up Dan for one more, but Takumi Inui, Dragon Shiryu, Benjamin, and Slam Master Jam rushed down. They were followed by Maniac, Mudslide, and a hesitant Camilo Ortega, for a big pull apart brawl.
-WBPW's Cade had the biggest match of his short career against Trevor Mach, but now he was faced with an even bigger challenge in the form of the Star Prince Tack Angel. The former World Champion was looking to bring the title back to Havok, but showed respect to fast rising young Ace to be. A great match, that brought out the best in both mean, saw a huge upset, but by dirty means. Stuart pretended to have Amy in his possession, distracting Tack for a backbreaker and the Rolling PK Thunder, for the pin and defense by Cade. A giant win, but when he realized why he won, he helped Tack chase after Stuart, who revealed that the woman dressed as Amy was Momo Miyuki, who low blowed Tack before the two escaped.
-Trevor Mach put the King of Clash title on the line once again, this time in a Sanctioned First Blood match, which set this apart from the previous matches with Subculture. Both men looked to be in rough shape, and this match type meant they have to fight smart, because any tough blow could have reopened fresh wounds. Subculture had the advantage in the bobbing and weaving, from his boxing training, but when Mach caught him in the clinch, he panicked to avoid the knees. This was a short, but painful encounter for the two, as body blows were used to set up for the big shot. Subculture went for the KO Punch, but Mach ducked it and hit an inverted Stunner, before hitting the Knee Trigger that triggered the blood flow from Subbie. Trevor Mach, the 3-Time King of Clash defended his title, but the war seemed to be ongoing, as Subculture tried to attack after the match, leaving both men bloody, which is how this has been going down anyway.....so par for the course.
-The WBPW Women were up next, as WBPW would be the next to get a shot a the Double Champion Rose Mulligan. Heather Mach and Paula went all out for the shot, but the veteran Paula was narrowly defeated by Heather Mach, who promised to beat her cousin's wife's sister for the belt. This is getting ridiculous.
-Double Champion Rose Mulligan and Lady M's took on Momo Miyuki and the Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions in 3-on-2 action for the gold. A brawl right from the start, the sisters brought the fight, but when the 7NA members tried to fight dirty, the sisters fought dirtier, pulling out bats and attacking as Dulce and Masaki tried to use chairs, basically giving the 7NA the DQ win, but beating them at their own game. They sent their opponents packing and played up to the crowd. Rose Mulligan dropped his belts, which M's picked up. She looked at them quietly, before slowly handing them back over to Rose.
-The WBPW Grand Championship match saw Captain Strong attempt to wrest the belt back from Derek Mach. Saint Sinner, now back completely in his Void costume, as methodical and merciless, a far cry from the Derek Mach that came to WBPW for "fun". Strong tried the Police Brutality, but it's 2017, and that's not so popular anymore. Mach hit the Chaos Theory for the pin and defense. Too many damn Machs on this show. I didn't think about it until just now. I'm sorry. Fictional Nepotism is fucked up.
-The main event saw the Havok World Champion Firebrand MAX take on 7NA's Troy for the belt of belts. Firebrand was was more "fired" up, calling to the crowd and yelling out at Troy, flexing when Troy tried to take him down with stiff shots. It felt like Firebrand X had opened up, and the crowd loved it. Troy gave him his best, which of course included the Punt Kicks, Big Boots, and Powerbombs, that Troy does...because he's Troy. Remember that? He couldn't keep Firebrand down. MAX countered with the MAX Thunder Buster, but Troy kicked out. The dominating Fireslide though, kept Troy down for the 1-2-3. Firebrand MAX retained the belt, and it kept it out of 7NA hands to close the show.

Havok Training Center
Tack Angel was hard at work, kicking away at the heavy bag, and signing to himself...
Tack Angel: ♪Return of the Tack come on, Return of the Tack oh my God, You know that I'll be back here I am, Return of the Tack once again, Return of the Tack pump up the world, Return of the Tack watch my flow, You know that I'll be back here I g-♪
Maniac: BOO!
Tack Angel: AH!
Maniac: AHAHA! You should have seen the look on your stupid face!
Tack Angel: My face is not stupid. You're stupid, for coming into this Training Center surrounded by the Renegades.
Maniac: Oh, you think I'm scared of you bitches?! HA! Relax, I'm here for one thing, and one thing only. I'm here to challenge you.
Tack Angel: No can do Maniac. I want your boss. You tell Stuart that he's got me really.....irked. I'm quite....cross with him. Tell him that.
Maniac: He's the one that gave me the red light! Sorry dude, but you have me in your way!
Tack Angel: Fine...I'll go through you to get to him.
Maniac: ....Bitch I've killed people.
Tack Angel: ....I'll keep that in mind. Oy.
Maniac: ....♪Return of the Tac-SHIT! IT'S STUCK IN MY HEAD!
Ryan IQ's Office
Ryan IQ: Thank you for your time champ.
Firebrand X: I do what must be done. I have to admit, your plan to send the World Champion to the territories is a good one. I relish the challenge.
Ryan IQ: By the way....you have the mask back on. Why is that?
Firebrand X: MAX is just a facet of who I am, as the hybrid. It's one thing to switch styles, but to switch who you are, that really throws off your opponent. Besides, Firebrand X won the E1 and won this World Championship. Firebrand X should be the one my opponents are afraid of.
Ryan IQ: Fair enough. I-
Trevor Mach: IQ!
Ryan IQ: Oh, here we go.
Trevor Mach: You son of a bitch! Is it true?!
Ryan IQ: That I'm boss now? Yes.
Trevor Mach: No. You want to make this place No Smoking?!
Ryan IQ: It's already No Smoking!
Trevor Mach: OH! *lights cigarette* So what's up?
Ryan IQ: You're looking shredded Mach.
Trevor Mach: Thanks...I do yoga now.
Ryan IQ: No, I mean shredded....like you were forced against a cheese grater.
Trevor Mach: Subculture, but don't worry, he's barely standing too.
Ryan IQ: So...you guys done killing each other?
Trevor Mach: NO! As long as someone challenges me, I will NOT back down. I'm the King of Clash! I'm the Wolf of Havok!
Ryan IQ: You're being distracted. You know that right?
Trevor Mach: ....Huh?
Ryan IQ: Never mind. Look, you guys told me your last match would be the last one. Now, that NEVER stands in wrestling, but could you AT LEAST give it more than a week?!
Trevor Mach: NO! You listen here IQ! Do you know how many times I've been Champion?
Ryan IQ: No...how many?
Trevor Mach: No, I was asking if you knew...I lost count. I don't remember how many times, THAT is how many times, and I won each title by following my heart and my balls.
Ryan IQ: How you met your wife too right?
Trevor Mach: ....She threw me through a wall. You know that Ry Ry!
Ryan IQ: I was jok-Oh please don't start calling me that again! What kind of match do you want?
Trevor Mach: The bloodiest possible outcome. The Grindhouse!
Grind: Did you say something Trevor?
Trevor Mach: Huh? Oh no, not you.
Ryan IQ: Grindhouse?
Grind: What?
Ryan IQ: The rotating barbed wire cage? Is that the Grindhouse?
Grind: Guys, I'm right here. What about my house?
Trevor Mach: Yes, that's the Grindhouse.
Grind: Are we playing around here?
Ryan IQ: ...Fine. So be it. Trevor Mach will face Subculture ONE MORE TIME in the Grindhouse.
Grind: You guys can't do that in my house. It's not big enough!

Streets of Saturn City
Trevor Mach and Hope Mach were walking down the street together...
Hope Mach: Dad, you really need to cut back on the smoking.
Trevor Mach: Oh, here it comes. I've been waiting for you to mention that.
Hope Mach: You've had one in your mouth all day.
Trevor Mach: You forget, these are Earth-2 cigarettes!
Hope Mach: Is that right? You sure you didn't run out of those?
Trevor Mach: ...Weeks ago. *sigh* I can't lie to you daughter.
Hope Mach: Dad, we got to buy you the patch, or at LEAST get you into vaping instead.
Trevor Mach: I vape...when I'm not smoking. *cough cough*
Hope Mach: ...Dad.
Trevor Mach: I'll TRY to cut down. I tell you though, I do stop whenever I'm fighting. Fighting is my anti-drug.
?: Is that right?!
Trevor Mach: Eh?
A large bald man, covered in tattoos, wearing a black leather jacket comes out of the nearby bar with a pool cue in hand.
Trevor Mach: Stand back Hope. I'm gonna go make a friend.
?: You looking for a fight?
Trevor Mach: Always. Who are you?
?: The name is Dan Feldman and I-
Trevor Mach: Wait, I don't care. You want to fight right?
Dan Feldman: I want that!
Trevor Mach: What, the bloody bandana?
Dan Feldman: I know what that is. They call you the King of Clash, and I want that!
Trevor Mach: Ha! I-
Hope Mach: You're not a wrestler, so you can't-
Trevor Mach: Hope, this is exactly what you wanted. *stomps out cigarette* See?
Hope Mach: Heh. Just be careful.
Trevor Mach: You know me daughter.
Hope Mach: That's what I'm afraid of.
Trevor Mach: You want this? Come and get it.
Dan Feldman: Gladly.
Feldman rushed Mach and tackled him into the wall. Trevor punched and elbowed his way out of it and let the fists fly. Feldman was much bigger, and took the punches easily, so Trevor grabbed him around the neck and jumped up to knee him in the face. Feldman backed away, but threw a huge punch that connected to Mach's ribs. He bent over, and Feldman broke the pool cue over his back. Trevor grabbed a trash can and beat Feldman with it until it was too dented to use. Feldman fell to his knees, with Mach hitting his Knee Trigger to end the street fight.
Hope Mach: Dad! Are you alright?
Trevor Mach: ...I didn't let him hit me in the face.
Hope Mach: Yeah, but the ribs?
Trevor Mach: ...Wasn't the best idea.
Trevor dabbed the blood off Feldman onto his bandana.
Hope Mach: ...All this blood worries me. He could be sick. Not blood tested like in Havok.
Trevor Mach: Eh, I'm sure it'll be fine.
Hope Mach: We got to do something different about that.
Trevor Mach: Daughter, you sure do want to change a lot about me.
Hope Mach: ...I'm sorry Dad. I'm just worried about you .
Trevor Mach: I know kid, I know. I'm open to your ideas.
Hope Mach: Heh. Thanks Dad.
Trevor Mach: Love you kid. Let's get out of here.
As the two walked away, a man in the shadows walked up to Feldman.
?: Here is your money. You did exactly what I wanted. Just needed to see that he's for real about this, and he didn't disappoint.

Amigo's House
The Weekend Wrecking Crew were busy doing what they do best...drinking and watching reruns of the Golden Girls...
Kinniku Mike: This is the life.
Amigo: Really? You really think this is the life?
Kinniku Mike: Shit no. This sucks.
Amigo: I don't know. Estelle Getty is looking fine.
Kinniku Mike: ....I bet she had strong tits.
Magnum PT: Do you two ever listen to yourselves? I'm bored. I wish I was back in Edo.
Kinniku Mike: Why aren't you in Edo?
Magnum PT: *sigh* I...might owe some money to the Yakuza. I MAY have slept with a Yakuza captain's girlfriend. I MAY have-
Amigo: We get it. You're a dead man. Maybe you should leave. I don't want that shit in my hou-
*knock knock*
Amigo: *sigh* Dammit PT. I'm answering that door.
Magnum PT: DON'T DO IT!
Amigo: ....I'm gonna do it.
Magnum PT: NO!
Amigo: Hello?
Stuart: Well look at this. The three of you look like you could use a change in your career path.
Ryan IQ's Office
Ryan IQ: Trevor, this isn't going to work. I keep telling you. That "rag" you got there is all bloody and disgusting. It's-
Trevor Mach: Let me stop you there. My daughter has told me I need to keep an open mind here, so I'm going. This has NOTHING to do with the fact that the rag is so caked in blood I can't even tie it around my arm anymore. What do you have in mind?
Ryan IQ: ...Title belt? Like everyone else?
Trevor Mach: ....
Ryan IQ: We etched the words to the belt with your blood?
Trevor Mach: I'LL TAKE IT! Give me that!
Ryan IQ: Oh! Well...this was easier than I thought it was going to be. Didn't you want to collect the blood of your enemies?
Trevor Mach: I recently learned about the dangers of blood born illnesses. *lights cigarette*
Ryan IQ: ...But you're not worried about that?
Trevor Mach: Nah.
Subculture: HEY! I heard you were here! Trying to back out of our match?!
Trevor Mach: No way douchebag, I'm getting a new title belt!
Subculture: The King of Clash title is a belt again? You're dropping that whole title just being a title thing?
Trevor Mach: Well...look at this rag. I mean...this looks a lot better.
Subculture: Can't tell you how glad I am to hear that. I really didn't want that cruddy rag when I beat you.
Trevor Mach: Nah man, I'm the King of Clash, the Wolf of Havok, the Bad Man. I've gotten bloodied up with you enough to know that you don't have what it takes to keep me down and out. I'm going to kick your ass one more time Subbie. The last time. Thanks for the belt Ry Ry.
Ryan IQ: *sigh* I'm not "Ry Ry".
Subculture: Hey! GET BACK HERE!
Ryan IQ: Oh no...he left the rag. I need a janitor in here now please!

Threed Drug Store
Mono Tone Narrator: The Havok World Championship, the symbol of excellence in all of wrestling. It's Champion, Firebrand X is the man carrying the weight of it's legacy on his shoulders. We follow the champ as he carries out his duties, making the rounds of Havok's new territories and-
Firebrand X: Hey, why do I have to carry my bag and walk wherever I go? I don't mind shaking hands with the fans, but could you at least get me a rental? I'm dragging my suitcase around. For that matter, I'm not a suit and tie kind of guy.
Mono Tone Narrator: The World Champion is more than happy to perform in all capacities as Champion, and in no way questions or complains about his role.
Firebrand X: ...You suck.
Mono Tone Narrator: Firebrand X is signing autographs at the meet and great. A few lucky undead fans even got their Havok Brand Fly Honey Jars signed, even though Tack Angel was on the label. The Champ was willing, even if the sting of jealousy tinged a little.
Firebrand X: Are you kidding? I don't want my name or face on this jar. "Tack Angel's Signature Fly Honey Recipe"? What does that even entail precisely.
Mono Tone Narrator: The Champ vowed to one day unlock the secret recipe of Tack Angel's Fly Honey.
Firebrand X: I don't care that much.
Mono Tone Narrartor: The Champion had to be careful, as Razorblade was looming nearby.
Firebrand X: Finally, you do something useful.
Razorblade: What the fuck Narrator? Asshole!
Firebrand X: You going to try and jump me again?
Razorblade: How are the ribs? I hear I may have broken a few?
Firebrand X: Irrelevant. You want your ass handed to you? I can oblige no matter what.
Razorblade: I want to beat YOUR ass, turn your ribs to dust, and shatter that mask of yours. What happens when you can't hide behind it anymore? Most of all, I want the Havok World Championship.
Firebrand X: I don't hide behind this mask. I use it to let you know exactly what you have in store if you get in my way, and that's a whole world of pain. You want a title match? You've got it.
Razorblade: Your funeral.
Momo Tone Narrator: The Champion knew that it was worth it to die for the title. Plus, the funeral expenses would be covered by the company and-
Firebrand X: Shut up!
Ryan IQ's Office
Ryan IQ is signing forms when...
Mr. Pirkle: Ryan IQ, what the fuck do you think you're doing?
Ryan IQ: Pirkle. It's been a while.
Mr. Pirkle: I know you're new to this, but we had an understanding with Andonuts about the smaller promotions. Stuart tried to encourage us to do this very thing you're doing before the 7 Nation Army, but we didn't do it out of mutual respect. Born out of that respect, were supershows that made us both a LOT of money. Now, you have broken that respect.
Ryan IQ: This is war, and I want to win. I have a vision Pirkle. You do what you will with WBPW though, that's not my problem.
Mr. Pirkle: You want war?! Fine!
Ryan IQ: We ARE at war already! You air Xcite at the same time as Renegade Nation! It's the Whatever Night We're on Wars. Everyone knows about that. The War of Dimes, I believe they also call it....I don't know why.
Mr. Pirkle: We WILL draw ALL the dimes. WE just signed exclusivity with P+P, All Edo Pro, AND the recently returning promotion Fourside Wrestling! Come in boys!
Jelly Jiggler: Hi, I'm Jelly Jiggler.
Perfect Man: I'm BACK!
Katsuflex: ....No one remembers who I am.
Mr. Pirkle: So we have our own territories, and talent to draw from. This war just gotten taken to the next level!
Ryan IQ: ...Still want to do the Supershows?
Mr. Pirkle: Of course....money always supercedes grudges.
Ryan IQ: Hey...hey look...I just drew a dime on this napkin.
Mr. Pirkle: ...Yeah we're out of here.
Ryan IQ: No one can stay I can't draw dimes. I can draw at least THIS dime.
The Mach Residence
It was late at night, as the Machs lay in bed. A knock at the door awoke Trevor, who tried to sit up, but was pulled back down by the handcuff that had him locked to the headboard. Laughing to himself as he remembered his situation, he grabbed the key from around the sleeping M's neck and limped his way to the door.
Trevor Mach: Get locked out Ta-....YOU!
Derek Mach: Hello cousin. You look like shit.
Trevor Mach: Good to see you too Derek. Can I get you anything? Soda? Beer? The fuck are you doing in my house?
Derek Mach: ...I need your help.
Trevor Mach: You need MY help? Oh that's rich. Last time you asked for my help we almost crashed a space station INTO THE EARTH!
Derek Mach: ...
Trevor Mach: OH, and BEFORE THAT, you used Dougie to bring back GIYGAS!
Derek Mach: You don't have to remind me. Besides, I'm the not the only one who has gone the attempted genocide route.
Trevor Mach: That's not fair. We're not talking about me right now! We're criticizing you.
Derek Mach: We call it the Mach Curse, but it's our sins we have to live and die with.
Trevor Mach: You said it was fun to you?
Derek Mach: Maybe it was, but things change. People change. Priorities change. My priorities have changed a lot since I found out that I'm a father.
Trevor Mach: ...WHAAA?!
Derek Mach: I have a son, and he's in trouble. Someone has him, and they have threatened me. They told me to put the mask back on, become the Void, and dominate and destroy in WBPW. I have no idea why, but I've done it. It's driving me mad Trevor. I can't keep up their demands while wondering what is happening to my son. I need your son. Trevor....please.....please help me find my son.
Trevor Mach: ...Derek...look at my hand.
Derek Mach: It's shaking wildly. Are you nervous?
Trevor Mach: No, that's nerve damage. Look at THIS hand. Steady as a rock. I'm resolute motherfucker. Let's do this.

Stuart: Troy, you seem mad.
Troy: I'm fucking PISSED! I want the World Championship!
Stuart: Patience Troy. Are you or are you not a team player?
Troy: I am whatever I want, and I do what I want because I'm Troy!
Stuart: This is bigger than all of us. Remember the goal. Remember what we will achieve if we stick to the course. That's why Razorblade is up to bat. Now I know you deserve another shot, but the way I see it, you softened Firebrand X up for us. I'm sure Razorblade is grateful...aren't you?
Razorblade: ...Whatever makes my job easier...I appreciate.
Troy: ...When this is over, and you have that belt, you will be seeing me Razorblade.
Razorblade: Fine with me.
Stuart: See? I knew we could come to terms here.
Razorblade: I'm more concerned about the dude in the mask over there. Is that really one of the members of the Weekend Wrecking Crew?
Stuart: Haha, yes it is! One of them was smart enough to listen to my offer.
Razorblade: Which one is he?
Stuart: If I told you now, it wouldn't be fun.
Razorblade: ...You're alright Stu. Also, you know how to keep the talent happy.
Stuart: I keep you happy, you make me very rich. It's just good business.
Razorblade: This plan of yours really is working so far.
Stuart: That moron Ryan IQ...I knew he'd do it. The man tried to act like we were family once upon a time. Tried to mentor me. Makes me sick, but I learned enough about him to know what he'd do. He did the very thing I tried to make WBPW do. He did my job for me!
Ryan IQ's Office
Ryan IQ: What do you mean he's not here?
Lady M's: What the fuck do you think I mean Ry Ry?! I say he's not here and that means HE'S NOT HERE! You're lucky I came up here to tell you in the first place!
Ryan IQ: You came up here to ransack my minibar!
Lady M's: Same fucking difference!
Tack Angel: Actually, I can elaborate. He left a note. Hope just showed me. It says "Went to Motherland with Derek. Promise not to destroy world. Will bring back souvenir. -Love Trevor P.S. Do NOT let Tack anywhere near my PS4." Well that last part was just rude.
Ryan IQ: We were going to have him and Subculture sign the liability waivers for the Grindhouse.
Grind: Huh?
Ryan IQ: No! No! We're not doing that again!
Grind: Awww.
Ryan IQ: I had to give Subculture the week off too, and the last thing I want to do is make anything easier for the 7 Nation Army. Whatever. Tack the 87's are opening the show tonight, so let your boys know.
Tack Angel: I will...as soon as I go....check on something.
Grind: You're going to mess with his PS4 aren't you?
Tack Angel: NO....well yes....he has Yakuza 0.
Grind: I see.
Tack Angel: By the way, you seen Sal?
Grind: He said he was going to deal with the Hooligan...whatever that means.
Tack Angel: ...Obviously, it means he's going to deal with Jamie OD.
Grind: Why obviously?
Tack Angel: That's his nickname.
Grind: It is?
Tack Angel: ...Do you even know my nickname?
Grind: "Cosmo Guy"?
Tack Angel: Great, so Sal is going to WBPW by himself. Wonderful. You wake up Tomo-kun, I'll get the raw steak so he doesn't kill us!

1. 6-Man Tag: Tack Angel/Grind/Ishihiro Tomo beat Mudslide/Camilo Ortega/Masked 7 via DQ
2. Lady Renegades Singles: Christina Angel beat Murasaki via DQ
3. Havok World Tag Team Championship: Severide(c)[o]/Takuma Tsurugi(c) beat Kinniku Mike[x]/Amigo via Sleeper Choke -> Referee Stoppage -> Title Defense!
4. Lady Renegades Trios: Rose Mulligan[o]/Lady M's/Hope Mach beat Momo Miyuki/Dulce Reina/Demon Masaki II[x] via Bloody Bomber -> Pin
5. 6-Man Tag: Razorblade[o]/Maniac/Troy beat Firebrand X[x]/Takumi Inui/Dragon Shiryu via Piledriver -> Pin
-The 87's were up first against the 7NA in 6-Man Tag action, that saw a mysterious man named Masked 7 join Camilo Ortega and Mudslide. The Masked 7 earned his place in the 7NA by having the guts to batter down Tomo with a chair to end the match in a DQ.
-Christina Angel followed in her father's footsteps...by winning by default via DQ. The returning Violet Violence Murasaki made a big impression by putting the hurt on Angel, and not letting up when the Referee demanded.
-Severide and Takuma Tsurugi of 7NA defended the Havok World Tag Team Championships against Kinniku Mike and Amigo, when it was revealed that Magnum PT was the Masked 7 from earlier in the night, and he helped his new allies by clocking Amigo with on of the belts while Mike was choked out by Severide. It should have been obvious that PT was Masked 7...the mask had a damn mustache!
-Rose Mulligan, Lady M's, and Hope Mach beat the trio of Miyuki, Reina, and Masaki II in Trios action in the most thrilling match of the entire evening. Several close calls lead to Rose hitting the Bloody Bomber on Masaki II to get the pin. After the match Murasaki ran into the ring and attacked Rose, M's, and Hope. The 7NA thought they had a new member, but Murasaki attacked them too, and stood alone in the ring, showing she had no allegiances.
-The main event saw Havok World Champion Firebrand X team up with Takumi Inui and Dragon Shiryu, a dream team trio, to take on Razorblade, Maniac, and Troy. A frantic and hard hitting match. The finish came as Troy big booted everything in sight long enough for Razorblade to hit the Piledriver on Firebrand X followed by a tight pulling pin for the tainted win over the World Champion.

Motherland Airport
A plane landed in the cold desolate landscape of Motherland. Trevor and Derek Mach made their way off the plane...
Trevor Mach: Cold as balls out here.
Derek Mach: Can't say I didn't warn you.
Trevor Mach: I try not to go to places where it's not t-shirt and shorts weather. *lights cigarette* You still haven't told me why we had to come here.
Derek Mach: You literally never asked.
Trevor Mach: ...Why are we here?
Derek Mach: They have my son, and this is where we have to go to get him back.
Trevor Mach: Still trying to wrap my head around this. You with a kid. I mean, you did get around, being a Mach and all, but wow.
Derek Mach: I didn't expect it either, but when I found out, I knew I'd do anything to keep him safe. That's when I told you in secret what was going on.
Trevor Mach: ...You did?
Derek Mach: At the E1, I told you the next time you'd see me, it wouldn't be me. I told you that I died. It was code. I was trying to tell you Void wasn't real, and I was playing a role.
Trevor Mach: You need to be A LOT more specific with me cousin. I had no fucking clue.
Derek Mach: Right.
Trevor Mach: We haven't worked together since-
Derek Mach: Fenrir...I know.
Trevor Mach: You caused some serious shit cousin.
Derek Mach: So did you.
Trevor Mach: Eh. What's done is done. What do we do now?
Derek Mach: We wait right here.
Trevor Mach: For?
Derek Mach: Them.
Trevor Mach looked up to see a group of men approaching. They part to make way for an older man in a wheel chair, using a breathing machine as he approached.
Trevor Mach: What? Stuart Sr.? Derek, what the fu-
Derek Mach knocked Trevor over the back of the head and laid him out in front of Stuart Sr.
Derek Mach: ...This is what you wanted right? Here he is.
Stuart Sr. Heh...*breaths into the mask* You truly are a piece of work Derek Mach. Willing to sell out your blood for-
Derek Mach: For my son. Yes, I am.
Stuart Sr.: ...Very well. I'm a man of my word. I'll have your son returned to his mother safe and sound.
Derek Mach: Remember our deal. Do not tell him about me. As far as he knows, his father is dead, and he's better off that way.
Stuart Sr.: ...He really is isn't he.
Derek Mach: What are you going to do to Trevor?
Stuart Sr.: ...Want to stick around and find out?
Derek Mach: Yes, I'm sure it'll be quite a show.
?
Trevor Mach awoke to find himself in a dimly lit jail cell, with Derek Mach standing outside...
Trevor Mach: You son of a bitch.
Derek Mach: I do what I have to do.
Trevor Mach: ...You're doing this for your son. I don't blame you, but I may have to kill you when I get out of here.
Derek Mach: You tried once before didn't you? You left me to die on a space station.
Trevor Mach: I blew up with you! It was for the gre-
Derek Mach: Greater good? When have we ever cared about that. You're not hero Trevor. You're the Bad Man remember? You're the Big Bad Wolf. Your reputation is why you're here right now.
Stuart Sr.: Oh, it's not just your reputation. It's what you've done to me and my family.
Trevor Mach: Heh, I'm not the one fucking your daughter. Why not go after the Star Prince?
Stuart Sr.: I want nothing more than to crush him entirely heart and soul, but my son has the honors, and it's the final thing he has to do before he takes the lead of our organization.
Trevor Mach: I thought your SSS was brought down?
Stuart Sr.: The distraction was brought down. The real organization will never die. Our family, our clan will survive and thrive, and you will die.
Trevor Mach: Is that right? Can we hurry it up then? I don't have all fucking day.
Stuart Sr.: That's not how we do things. Our organization is one of many, that settles their disputes in a more "honorable" way. I could shoot you dead right now, but that wouldn't satisfy me. You're not Tack Angel after all. Him...I WOULD kill him in an instant. You have a chance though. You will either make it out of here alive, or you will die horrifically. I don't like your chances.
Trevor Mach: The fuck am I doing then old timer?
Stuart Sr.: You will fight for your very survival at the River of Pain.
Trevor Mach: ...Sounds fun!
Stuart Sr. I will see you there...and it will be the last time.
Trevor Mach: Looking forward to it! ...Fucker. Derek, what the hell is the River of Pain?
Derek Mach: An underground establishment. A river runs through an old subway tunnel. You can do or find anything there. Drugs, guns, women, gambling, and most of all...blood. Cage fighting against the most dangerous types. Just the place for the Machs huh?
Trevor Mach: Well, I always planned to die fighting.
Derek Mach: Don't throw in the towel yet cousin. Become that beast inside of you, and you will survive the River of Pain.
Trevor Mach: The beast inside?
Derek Mack: What is "Fenrir"? It was a wolf. They call you the Big Bad Wolf. You ARE Fenrir. Unleash the wolf in that cage Trevor. Survive.
Trevor Mach: Why do you care?
Derek Mach: This was all part of the plan. I made sure you were ready for it before I came to you. Remember the fight in front of the bar? I paid that man to fight you. I wanted to see what you could do.
Trevor Mach: ...Well I'm REALLY glad your plan is working asshole. Tell you what, I WILL survive this River of Pain, and then....then you and I....will settle this.
Derek Mach: Good luck...I mean that.
Trevor Mach: "Good luck" Bah! Fucking River of Pain huh? I could really go for a smoke right now.
River of Pain
An arena full of people both criminal and high society surrounded a caged octagon, with a metal grate floor, above the flowing River of Pain. Trevor Mach stood in the ring in his leather jacket with his fists taped up.
Shady Announcer: Are you ready for blood?! Are you ready for violence?! If the answer is yes, then you've come to the right place, the RIVER OF PAIN! Water flows under this ring, carrying the blood of countless fighters and champions. More blood will be added to the river today, as we welcome a fighter from Eagleland! A notorious individual, who is finally facing trial by steel. The "Bad Man" Trevor Mach!
Crowd: BOOOOO!!!!
Trevor Mach: Yeah, fuck you VERY much! Flipping you off with both fingers AS HARD AS I CAN!
Shady Announcer: He will face the gauntlet, and like always the match ends when the opponent is down and stays down....dead or alive. If he makes it to the end, he will face our CHAMPION, and his one and only chance to survive the River. Let us begin with the first opponent, the former patriarch of a small yakuza organization. He too considers himself a wolf. Garo Sai!
A short, muscular man in a purple suit made his way into the ring. He stroked his goatee as his sized up his opponent. Women rushed into the cage to remove his jacket, revealing scars and tattoos. The man had seen wars. A gong rang as Garo Sai ran up and threw fists. He wasted no time using his boxing ability to light up Mach's face with shots. Trevor caught him in the clinch and let the knees fly. He pulled out a knife and sliced Trevor in the chest. The pissed off Mach countered with a head butt and a Knee Trigger, knocking out Garo Sai. Mach smeared the blood from his chest onto his face and yelled at the crowd as he paced back and forth.
Trevor Mach: IS THAT ALL YOU FUCKING GOT!? WHOSE NEXT!?
Stuart Sr. watched from the VIP Seating...
Stuart Sr.: How long do think he'll endure Derek?
Derek Mach: ...Long enough.
Mach spent several hours fighting his way through thugs and would be killers. He met familiar foes like Anahauc's Hurricane Nozaki, and the Edo fighter Akira Kondo. At the end, a bloody and tired Trevor Mach stood tall in the ring, as most of the blood was not his.
Trevor Mach: I can do this all day fuckers! I can do this all day!
Announcer: Let's give it up for Trevor Mach, who has shocked us all!
Crowd: YAAAAAAY!
Trevor Mach: *spits blood* Oh now they cheer.
Announcer: Well then, that brings us to the main event! Trevor Mach has earned the right to face our Champion! Seemingly born in the River of Pain, this masked giant sends his opponents straight to the underworld. MASKED CHARON!
A tall, overbearing figure in a black mask with horns entered the cage to loud cheering. He held aloft a championship belt, much like the King of Clash title that Mach held. Mach rushed him, to be caught by the neck and tossed against the cage.
Announcer: Hold it! A championship match deserves something special! For the first time in a while, we're bringing the heat! This is now a BURNING MATCH!
The crowd went wild as the grating on the floor began to heat up and turn red. The very floor was now deadly. Charon was big and lumbering, throwing Mach around the cage, but the Bad Man kept on his feet and punched and kicked his way back into the fight, but it seemed like nothing could hurt Masked Charon. Mach was against the cage, when Charon lifted him again by the neck and tossed him to the floor. His clothes began to sizzle and his face was slightly seared by the heat. The pain brought him back to his feet and he ducked a big punch by Charon and low blowed him. He forced him to his knees, which were now sizzling, as the heat was penetrating his pads. Mach bit him in the face and ripped open a part of his mask. He landed punch after punch after punch before backing up for the Knee Trigger than sent him to the floor. As he writhed around on the floor in agony, Mach helped him up, put out the flames and threw him out of the cage, but not before taking his belt. The crowd cheered as Mach howled like a wolf and swung the belt around.
Later...
Mach was in a locker room, showering off the pain, agony, and blood from the day's battles. The shady announcer entered the shower room with a trio of gorgeous ladies.
Announcer: Congratulations, you're the new Master of the River of Pain. You have been released by your captors, but I have to wonder if you wouldn't rather stay and make serious money with me.
Trevor Mach: ...
Announcer: You could have women, money, and power. All you have to do is keep your top spot, and you can let the wolf loose in our cage. Go on ladies, convince him.
Trevor Mach: Step back. You listen to me. I made your River of Pain my bitch today, but I'm not staying. I'm a Renegade, and I'm going home. I'm keeping this belt though. What is it called?
Announcer: ...King of Fire...
Trevor Mach: King of Fire? King of Clash? ....It's good to be the King. Out of my way.
Trevor got dressed and left down a hallway.
Trevor Mach: Where the fuck am I even going?
Derek Mach: Down this hall. Take a left at the end. We're in Motherland's capitol, so it won't be hard to get a ticket back t-
Trevor knocked Derek out with a hard right.
Trevor Mach: ...I want to kill you. You want the wolf? Well the wolf wants blood. This will have to suffice, because you're going to see your fucking kid. You're going to give him a father. That's something I'm doing for him! I won't deprive him of that. You're lucky. You're so damn lucky. I'm leaving.....hey...wake up...did you say take a left or right? Derek?

Sal Paradise: The Sal Paradise of Wrestling? No wait, that's me! I guess that makes you Jack Kerouac.
Tommy Dukes: But I don't want-
Sal Paradise: Tell em' where we are, and why we're here!
Tommy Dukes: Well...I've been dragged to Fourside, by Sal Paradise, because we're apparently invading WBPW.
Sal Paradise: I'm here for OD! He wants to screw with me, well the People's Choice can dish it back out, but I'm not playing games. This is as REAL as it gets!
Tommy Dukes: ...Please don't make me go in there. Nerma is in there. She hates me. She hurts me.
Sal Paradise: Relax! I'm SURE she won't show up if we're really REALLY sneaky about going in.
Tommy Dukes: Alright...how are we getting in?
Sal Paradise: The front door, with the gathering sea of fans that have noticed us. I bought tickets.
Tommy Dukes: Aw dang it!
WBPW: Xcite Ring
Stephen Pentros: Strong has the forearm locked in tight! The former World Champion is-wait...who is....it's Sal Paradise!
During a match between Captain Strong and Jamie OD, Sal Paradise rushed in and tried to hit OD with a chair. The Hooligan rolled out of the ring, and because he was never touched, he lost by count out. Strong shrugged and celebrated the victory. After he left the ring, Sal grabbed the mic.
Sal Paradise: Where you going Jamie?! You running?! This was SOOOO much fun when you were doing it to me right? Listen asshole, I made my choice. Just like the people once chose me, I had to make a choice myself. I wanted to push myself where I belonged, and that's being an 87's Renegade. That's where I've felt the most like myself in a long time. I feel like that Sal Paradise that carried the World Championship with pride. I feel like Havok has become the place for us to get our fire back! You just couldn't handle it could you? I was always considered the better singles wrestler, and it always made you jealous, whether we were medicated with Facenol or not. I'm going putting my focus back on the World Championship, but not before I take care of one last thing....you. Step in this ring right now, and let's duke this out. Let's settle it now! You win, and I'll walk away from wrestling, but if I win, you stay out of my way forever. Deal?
Jamie OD: ...Oi...you think you can come in here and make matches!? You're a stranger in a strange land. You don't get to make the rules around here! I'm the Killing Joke Sal, I'm who I am supposed to be, and I MAKE THE RULES HERE MATE! I'd loving nothing more than to destroy you, but like I said, you don't make the matches.
Mr. Pirkle: Actually, I'm alright with this! We're on against Renegade Nation right now. The ratings for this match are going to win us the night. Let's do this.
Jamie OD: Oh...well...ALRIGHT THEN!
Sal Paradise: LET'S DO THIS!

1. Career vs. Restraint: Sal Paradise[Havok] beat Jamie OD[WBPW] via Jujigatame -> Submission
-Sal Paradise and Jamie OD, the LoveKick Connection, faced off one last time, with heavy stakes in an impromptu match. Sal knew he was facing direct competition on another channel from his home promotion, but the need outweighed the cost. A bloody hard hitting brawl, ended with Sal switching up to submissions, busting out his Jujigatame for the first time in years, to force the Hooligan to submit. A huge win for Havok's Sal Paradise.
Tommy Dukes: Sal! Sal wait! Don't leave me! Nerma found me! Did you win?!
Sal Paradise: Didn't you see?!
Tommy Dukes: ...I was hiding. Congrats though. What's next for you?
Sal Paradise: Straight to the top Tommy! Straight to the top! The People's Choice is BACK!
Nerma: DUKES GET OUT OF HERE!
Tommy Dukes: RUN!

Ryan IQ's Office
Ryan IQ: I didn't ask for you here Angel, I wanted to talk to Tomo by myself.
Tack Angel: And I didn't want him to kill you, so here I am.
Ryan IQ: You're just looking for something to do since you lost your title. You were the Ace around here, but you got replaced pretty easily.
Tack Angel: ...Yeah...I guess I-
Ryan IQ: No. Tack, that was motivational.
Tack Angel: It was?
Ryan IQ: Well it was supposed to be. It's supposed to light a fire under you.
Tack Angel: I do have a fire lit under me! Stuart! Stuart has gone after my family, and I won't have it! More than any title right now, I want a shot at Stuart. I want the leader of the 7 Nation Army. He keeps ducking me! He wants to put Troy in my way! How many people do I have to go through to get to him. You tell me that.
Ryan IQ: ...None.
Tack Angel: Nani?
Ryan IQ: I'm the Boss remember? He doesn't have booking power. I do. You want a match? You totally have it. If he wants a spot on my shows, he will play by my rules.
Tack Angel: Oh...nice!
Ryan IQ: So yeah...leave now.
Tack Angel: Wait! I meant it. I'm protecting you from Tomo.
Ryan IQ: Oh...well...he's getting the shot against Cade at Last Clash 2017, which is where you will face Stuart.
Tack Angel: Oh....poor Cade. I'd tell Trevor if anyone could find him.
Ryan IQ: Yeah, where is he?
Trevor Mach: Where is who?
Tack Angel: Trevor?!
Trevor Mach: Huh.
Tack Angel: You've been gone for days!
Trevor Mach: Yeah?
Tack Angel: What happened?
Trevor Mach: Well Tack, it's a looooong story! Ahaha-
Tack Angel: ....
Trevor Mach: ....
Tack Angel: ...You're not in a freeze frame.
Trevor Mach: Oh right. Long story short then. *lights cigarette* River of Pain...floor was on FIRE...new title belt.
Ryan IQ: Ah, you told me about that.
Trevor Mach: Right, this is it.
Tack Angel: Wait, you told Ryan, but not me?
Trevor Mach: ...I didn't even call my wife if it makes you feel better.
Tack Angel: Why Ryan though?
Ryan IQ: Because, he wanted to make a change to the title match with Subculture, and I was happy to oblige. I have officially sanctioned this, the King of Fire title that Mach captured in the River of Pain. He won this title in a Burning Match, where the floor itself was heated. Both titles will be on the line in The GrindHouse tonight, AND the floor will be heated. I already told Subculture. He accepted without hesitation.
Trevor Mach: I underestimated that guy. Tough son of a bitch.
Tack Angel: ...You still could've called.
Trevor Mach: ...Fine! Fine! I'm sorry!
Tack Angel: I WAS WORRIED!
Trevor Mach: THAT'S FUCKING WEIRD!

Lady M's and Hope Mach pulled into the arena, where they were met by Lady Renegades Champion Rose Mulligan, Christina Angel, and Iroha...
Lady M's: ...So I take it we know then?
Rose Mulligan: We know. The rumors were that the 7 Nation Army were making a deal, and I think they did. I think they've convinced them.
Hope Mach: We'll be ready, just in case.
Christina Angel: We want to be a part of the solution here.
Lady M's: Well, we don't have time to give a shit about Dulce, Momo, or the Demon right now do we? Let's get this shit done. If they're coming...we'll be ready.
7 Nation Army Locker Room
Stuart: *on the phone* Yes. Perfect. No, they were my second choice, when you wouldn't get back to me. I knew you'd come around though. Consider them gone. Oh...well I can talk to her about it. I'm sure she'd prefer it to the alternative. Haha...I will see you soon.
Subculture: Who was that?
Stuart: An oncoming storm, and it's on our side.
Subculture: What did you want from me?
Stuart: I want to shake your hand.
Subculture: What?
Stuart: You...you have surprised me...time and time again. I considered you washed up. I let you stick around to occupy the Big Bad Wolf, but I've seen a lot more from you than I ever expected. I get it now. I get you, and I respect you.
Subculture: Respect? Is that what the 7NA is now? I didn't remember hearing about it in the pitch.
Stuart: My family...we built our reputation on honor and respect. If you wanted to maximize the efficiency of your organization, you didn't treat people like employees, you treated them like family, because in a sense they were. They would live and die by the sword together. You, are worthy to be a part of this organization...this family. Win, lose, or death, we've got your back.
Subculture: ...I did this for me. I need to beat Mach. I will beat Mach. This isn't about Havok or the 7 Nation Army. I'm going to be the best again. The fire is back.
Stuart: ...Seems to be going around.

1. Singles: Amigo beat Magnum PT via Ankle Lock -> Submission
2. Tag: Mudslide/Camilo Ortega[o] beat Benjamin/Slam Master Jam[x] via STO Bomber -> Pin
3. Non-Title Singles: Firebrand X beat Maniac via Fireslide -> Pin
4. Havok Lady Renegades Tag Team Championship: Rose Mulligan/Lady M's[o] beat Dulce Reina(c)[x]/Demon Masaki II(c) via Rolling M's -> Pin -> NEW Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions!
5. Havok King of Clash + King of Fire ~The GrindHouse~: Trevor Mach(c) beat Subculture via Burning Machismo -> Verbal Submission -> Title Defense!
-The opening match featured the 7 Nation Army's newest member, Magnum PT. Magu P tried to explain to the fans how taking the money was the Eagleland way of doing things, but he was quickly shut down by an angry Amigo, who slammed him around the ring, and locked him in the ankle lock, forcing a submission, and a quick humiliating loss.
-Mudslide and Ortega teamed up against Benjamin and Slam Master Jam, with Renegade Captain Bashin Dan on the outside coaching the team. Mudslide crushed the opposing team, but forced Ortega to finish them, with the reluctant Camilo hitting the STO Bomber on SMJ for the win. After the match, Bashin Dan entered the ring and demanded Ortega take him on next. Ortega tried walking away, but Dan turned him around and slapped him hard. Mudslide crushed him, and was soon joined by Severide and Takuma Tsurugi. The tag champs were routed by Takumi and Dragon Shiryu, who cleaned house, further endorsing Bashin Dan as the Captain.
-The Havok World Champion was up next against Maniac in non-title action. Razorblade watched on the outside, as his upcoming opponent thwarted Maniac with a Fireslide. After the match, he and Maniac attacked Firebrand. Razorblade pulled out a sledgehammer and attempted to remove the mask of Firebrand. This brought out Sal Paradise to a loud reaction. He helped up Firebrand, but made it clear, he wanted to be next in line for the Havok World Championship.
-The next match saw Women's Double Champion Rose Mulligan and Lady M's take on Dulce Reina and Demon Masaki II, the Lady Renegades Tag Team Champions. Momo Miyuki tried to come down to ringside, but Hope, Christina, and Iroha held her at bay. A beat down match for the champs, as M's and Rose dominated. The finish came with M's hitting the Rolling M's on the brash Dulce Reina for the 1-2-3! New Champions Crowned! Lady M's and Rose Mulligan, the most unlikely pair, were awarded the Lady Renegades Tag Team Championships, giving Rose Mulligan a third belt to add to her collection, and returning gold to Lady M's.
-The ring was broken down and replaced with a grate floor and the rotating GrindHouse for the main event. Trevor Mach put two titles on the line against Subculture, in an all or nothing fight to the finish, that could have main evented any big show, but was featured here to grab the ratings back from WBPW, who sneakily took the lead the week prior. Short term gain, the BEST strategy! Mach and Subculture went all out like prior matches, but this time they had more going against them. Every time they were up against the GrindHouse, the barbed steel would cut into them as it rotated. Every time they almost fell they could feel the heat of the grated floor. The rules were the same though, in that the only way to win was KO, TKO, or Verbal Submission. Both men tried to throw out their biggest blows, but the threat of the fiery floor kept them conscious and on their feet. Subbie landed the KO Punch, but Mach stumbled into the barbs to keep himself from hitting the floor in a gruesome scene. Mach turned it around, taking punches enough to get close to Subbie and lock in the clinch, letting the knees fly. Mach pushed Subbie to the floor, where he yelled from the pain. He flipped Mach off as he hit the Knee Trigger. Subbie surprisingly shot back up and let more punches fly, sending Mach to the burning grates. The finish finally came, when a weary Subbie missed the KO Punch. Mach lifted him for the Burning Machismo, which was ironic considering, and slammed him to the grates. Subbie verbally submitted as he writhed on the floor, ending the match for Mach. Trevor uncharacteristically lifted Subculture off the grates after the match. The two could be seen talking, but the words weren't picked up. Mach extended his fist and the two hesitantly fist bumped, before Mach picked up his two belts and swung them around in celebration.
Outside the Twoson Fairgrounds
The sounds of motorcycles filled the night air of Twoson, as a group clad in black pulled up in front of the fairgrounds...

Havok Wrestling Update
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the bearer of bad news of Wrestling, and I....well I have bad news....FOR THE 7 NATION ARMY! Takuma Tsurugi is out with an injury! Haha! One half of the Havok Tag Team Champions has been wrestling with a bad knee, and it's taken it's toll. The man can no longer stand and requires surgery. This gave Ryan IQ a great opportunity to take the belt the 7 Nation Army has taken from us...but he decided to give them a fair shot...
Ryan IQ's Office
Stuart: ...IQ.
Ryan IQ: Stuart? This is unexpected. I-
Stuart: I don't want to have this talk. I know what you want to say. I didn't want to hear it then, and I don't want to hear it now. Whatever love affair you had with my mother is none of my concern and-
Ryan IQ: But Stuart, I-
Stuart: AM NOT MY FATHER! You THINK you are, but you don't know! I KNOW! I KNOW WHO MY FATHER IS!
Ryan IQ: ...I just wanted to talk about it.
Stuart: Not happening. I've already said enough. I'm not here for that. I want to know what you plan on doing with the tag titles. If you rip them away from the Army, you will pay dearly for it.
Ryan IQ: ...I'm sorry about what happened to Taku-
Stuart: No you're not. It's fine though. This is war, and there are casualties in war. I have more surprises up my sleeve. Don't you worry about that. The elite in Wrestling are coming to the 7 Nation Army, and we'll have ALL the belts, but right now, the tag belts....talk.
Ryan IQ: I'm giving you a fair shot. Next week's Renegade Nation will be called Tagapalooza. Several tag matches will qualify teams for a main event Battle Royale. The last two in the ring will become the NEW Havok World Tag Team Champions.
Stuart: ...Just throwing shit against the wall to win the ratings war? Whatever....none of my concern. You give me teams to enter, and we will keep that title. Block us, and you will pay the-
Ryan IQ: I'm not blocking you! I'm giving you a chance! I shouldn't. I should not go easy on you, and yet-
Stuart: You're weak and stupid. That's why I'll win. Now, if you'll excuse me...I have other business to attend to....and it's because of another stupid decision you've made. Goodbye.
Ryan IQ: *sigh*....Goodbye...Son.

The Angel Residence
It was late at night, as the Angels lay in bed. A sound awoke Tack, who tried to sit up, but was pulled back down by the handcuff that had him locked to the headboard. Laughing to himself as he remembered his situation, he reached over to grab for a key, but then remembered that his previous memory never happened, and he had no idea why he was handcuffed to the bed. He looked up to see...
Tack Angel: Yo-
Stuart: Shhh! Whisper Tack. Do NOT wake up my sister.
Tack Angel: What are you doing here?
Stuart: Showing you again how easy it would be for me to really hurt you.
Tack Angel: Bastard. You will not hurt my family.
Stuart: I don't want to. You need to make it so I don't have to.
Tack Angel: How do I do that?
Stuart: Give up your match against me at Last Clash.
Tack Angel: What?
Stuart: Take it back. Admit that I have you beat. Avoid the humiliation, and save your "family".
Tack Angel: And if I refuse?
Stuart: You will wake up one night just like this, only it won't be this peaceful...I guarantee. I'll let you sleep on it.
Tack Angel: Hey. Wait. Where's the key? Stuart? Stuart? *whisper yell* Stuuuuuuaaaaarrrrrrt.

Firebrand X: The Havok World Tag Team Championships are on tier with my own World Championship. They just involve you having a partner, a partner that is capable of holding up their end in the furious of battles.
Sal Paradise: And I was happy to agree! I may be an 87, but the People's Choice needs to keep an eye out on the World Champion...for my own reasons of course.
Firebrand X: Of course.
-
Mudslide: FOR EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS TAGAPALOOZA WATCH OUT, BECAUSE A MUDSLIDE IS COMING FOR YOU!
Camilo Ortega: The 7 Nation Army wants the tag titles, so that's what we're going to do...
-
Bashin Dan: They say that Troy and Subculture are the best of the best, but it won't stop me. They say that being brave means not being scared. That's not true. I'm scared, but I'm going to stand my ground anyways. THAT is brave! I got a whole deck of tricks up my sleeve for the 7 Nation Army.
Benjamin: Well said Captain, but the Army is strong, so we can't just be brave, we need to be stronger.
-
Troy: You little bastards think you can be brave against THIS?! Think again! I'll punt your fucking heads in BECAUSE I'M TROY!
Subculture: I'm sore, and beaten, and burned, but I won't stop. I'll never stop. Mach pulled me up from the flame, and we agreed that that match was the last, but let's hope we see him in the main event. This street dog is still hungry.
-
Razorblade: Maniac and I, we're unstoppable when we're focused, but we're deadly when we're not, because CHAOS is destructive! I WOULD be focused, if I wasn't so pissed off, so that is what you're getting. You're getting CHAOS! I'll claim those tag belts, but make no mistake Firebrand....Sal Paradise...I WILL BE HAVOK WORLD CHAMPION!
Maniac: ...What he said.
-
Grind: I've been back and forth in this wrestling world, rolling around like my roller blades, but I'm always going to give it 100% when an opportunity like this comes around. I've been World Champion, and then an emo cultist for awhile. I'll be more than happy to be World Tag Team Champion along with whoever else is in that ring at the end....hope it's you Tomo-kun.
Ishihiro Tomo: .....
-
Takumi Inui: My goal is still to bring dreams to the people, but Shiryu and I have another goal, to become World Tag Team Champions. We came into Havok and climbed high, moving faster than my 86, Let's get back on track!
Dragon Shiryu: The master of the underworld still looms, but for now, I will be honored to have that tag title belt around my waist.
-
Trevor Mach: See these titles? The King of Clash, and the King of Fire. Officially as of now, the pair of them will be called the Havok Burning Crown! You could take one, or the other, but why not both? You want my crown? Step into the fire, and try not to get knocked out. Why the hell am I bringing that up? Well, I got a belt on my shoulder here, and one on my other shoulder. I got room around my waist. The Bad Dudes are the best tag team ever, and we'll be World Tag Team Champions once again. Beat, but not beaten, I'm here to kick some ass!
Tack Angel: Is it written in the stars? I got to be honest to all the star lights in my constellation, I have no idea. I've had my confidence shaken as of late, but that's not going to stop me. You're going to get the best Star Prince I have inside of me, and tonight, the Bad Dudes will be the Havok World Tag Team Champions!

6. Havok World Tag Team Championship Decision Battle Royale: Tack Angel vs. Trevor Mach vs. Troy vs. Subculture vs. Razorblade vs. Maniac vs. Takumi Inui vs. Dragon Shiryu
Winners: Trevor Mach and Subculture -> NEW Havok World Tag Team Champions!
-The Bad Dudes had an uphill climb against the mountain called Mudslide, and former World Champion Camilo Ortega, but Ortega himself made it easy for the Dudes, as he refused to tag in for Mudslide. Angel showed an incredible feat of strength with an Angel Driver on Mudslide for the pin.
-Troy and Subculture of the 7 Nation Army brought a world of pain to Bashin Dan and Benjamin. Dan continued to get the support and respect of the fans as he took the beatings from Troy and Subculture, refusing to stay down for the pin. Benjamin was targeted next, and the Punt Kick lead to the pin.
-Razorblade and Maniac took on World Champion Firebrand X and Sal Paradise next. Sal Paradise did his best to keep the heat off X's back, but that got him caught in a Sliced Bread #2 from Maniac. Maniac then threw himself out of the ring onto Firebrand while Razor hit the Piledriver on Sal Paradise for the pin and the win.
-A fantastic tag match between "Crimson Dragon" and the 87's saw Takumi and Shiryu pull off the win, avoiding even trying to pin Tomo, instead pinning Grind after a Crimson Smash from the Crimson Smasher. "Crimson Dragon"? "Dragon Smash"? Tag name pending.
-The Lady Renegades were up next, with a match to determine a new #1 Contender for Rose Mulligan's Women's Double Championship. Hope Mach was a strong favorite, hitting the Olympic Slam on a returning Kelly Steele, but Momo Miyuki stole the win after hitting a Momo Buster on Hope and pinning the downed Steele. As she celebrated, the sounds of motorcycles could be heard throughout the arena.
-The main event saw the winning teams of the previous Tagapalooza matches come together for a Battle Royale. The winners would be crowded the NEW Havok World Tag Team Champions. It was an intense free for all, with teams trying to stay together, but ultimately having to focus on getting eliminations. In the melee, nobody knew if their partner was still in. The finish came with the final two making eliminations at the same time. Mach managed to eliminate Troy with a Burning Machismo over the side. He backed into who he thought was Tack. Subculture eliminated Tack Angel with a KO Punch over the ropes. He backed into who he thought was Troy. The two turned around and prepared to throw down until the bell rang. They soon realized that they had become the NEW Havok World Tag Team Champions. Oops!
Havok Arena - Rooftop
Kinniku Mike and Amigo are busy atop the roof...
Amigo: I really feel like we're forgetting something.
Kinniku Mike: Nah! This is what we need to focus on. Right PT?!
Mike was hanging PT over the side of the arena...
Magnum PT: DON'T YOU THINK THIS IS A LITTLE EXCESSIVE! I TOOK THE MONEY! I CAN'T HELP IT CHIEF, IT'S THE EAGLELAND WAY!
Amigo: You think they're going to buy this?
Kinniku Mike: It's worked so far. PT as the mole for the Crew. It's a great idea, and this part is the most fun!
Amigo: ....OH SHIT WE FORGOT TAGAPALOOZA!

?
In a dimly lit room, Subculture walked in with Havok World Tag Team Championship belt in hand. The other members of the 7 Nation Army were seated at a table, with other figures masked in the dark behind them.
Stuart: Three cheers for Subculture. The man kept us in the Tag Team game with that belt there. Again, you've exceeded expectations.
Subculture: You serious? You see who else is champ? I have to share this title win with Trevor Mach?! Are you kidding me?!
Stuart: It's perfect really. The 87's don't want to turn on their own, so they'll be at a disadvantage if they go for the belts.
Subculture: And what if you guys challenge?
Stuart: It'll be competitive and fair, and if you lose the belts, we as an army still have them. Bigger picture time Subbie. This is just a stepping stone anyways. Bigger and better things alright?
Subculture: ...
Stuart: Of course, we COULD always try to bring him into the fold.
Subculture: You want Trevor Mach to defect?
Stuart: The Big Bad Wolf....the Bad Man...in the 7 Nation Army. It would be more beneficial then SOME, I'm looking at you Camilo. One more screw up, and you're Abuela will pay for your sins.
Camilo Ortega: .....
Stuart: I have no REAL issues with Mach. My father wants him dead for what he did to Edo, but me, I'd rather have the beast on our side pointed at whatever we want destroyed. Get him to join us.
Bad Dudes Bar
Grind: He should join us!
Trevor Mach: Fuck you talking about Grind?
Grind: You've got the belts with him, and he has to know that the 7NA would want to use this opportunity to get the belts off you and him and onto two 7NA guys.
Trevor Mach: He's got to know that?
Grind: Tomo, the animal, is going to pull double duty at Last Clash. He's going to team with me against you guys, and a 7NA team. You could get him to join us OR knock his ass out and let us pin him.
Trevor Mach: ...You just want the titles don't you?
Grind: I HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO DO ANYTHING FUN! I used to be fun! I had fun all the time! I miss those Jet Set days.
Trevor Mach: Drink this beer....then this beer....then take these pills out of my mystery bottle. You'll have fun.
Grind: Ooo! What's the mystery?
Trevor Mach: ...Just aspirin...hangovers are bitch.
Grind: Oh...right.
Trevor Mach: Wait a minute...what else is Tomo doing at Last Clash?
Grind: He's going to rip the TV Title back from your boy in WBPW.
Trevor Mach: The kid's gonna fight Tomo?
Grind: Unleashed Tomo dude. We're not going to feed him for a day prior and- Trevor? Where did he go?
3'dPW: Spicy when Spiced - Threed
Maniac took part in a 3'dPW show as part of the new HWA territory system. He faced the current Spicy Extreme Champion Curry Man in a No Rules match, using the Sliced Bread #2 to win the title. After the match he grabbed a mic.
Maniac: What is this? A toy belt? THIS is my first singles title? What a joke! This place is a joke! I spent years in an Anahauc PRISON, shanking motherfuckers and avoiding getting ass fucked, and my fucking reward is this fucking piece of shit!
Curry Man: ...Curry Man's show...family friendly. Please?
Maniac: FUCK THAT AND FUCK THIS TITLE! I DON'T WANT IT! I'M OUT OF HERE!
Curry Man picked up the title belt...

Saturn City Studio
A photographer was taking pictures of Trevor Mach and Rose Mulligan, as they were notable for having three titles a piece at the same time...
Trevor Mach: Are these for my personal collection?
Photographer: No sir, it's for Havok Magazine?
Trevor Mach: We have one of those? People still buy magazines?
Photographer: ...No...not really.
Rose Mulligan: Let's just get this shoot over with already. I got better things to do.
Trevor Mach: I'm sure nothing could be better than spending time with the brother in law right?
Rose Mulligan: ...You smell like your liver is trying to escape your body.
Trevor Mach: Haha, you're probably right. Was up all night looking for the kid Cade before coming here. Didn't really have time to-
Photographer: He's over there.
Trevor Mach: Huh?
Photographer: Yeah, we're getting pictures of him with his belt too. You walked right by him coming in. Look, he's even waving at you.
Trevor Mach: You assume I have my eyes open under these shades. I'm out of here. Hey Cade!
Cade: Trevor, it's good to see you again.
Trevor Mach: You too kid. Hey listen, we need to talk about your career choices, namely, agreeing to wrestling Tomo-kun.
Cade: I'm excited for the challenge.
Trevor Mach: HE'LL KILL YOU!
Cade: What?
Trevor Mach: You don't know this guy like I do. One time I saw him fighting a bear! Like, he went out into the woods to pick a fight with a bear, and when he WON, he took his food and ATE IT RAW!
Cade: Oh wow.
Trevor Mach: I once had to defend the World Championship against him. It's one of my few lucid memories because of just how hard this bastard battered me. The man has been wrestling with a separated shoulder for YEARS! I personally believe it's because it's too afraid to come back together!
Cade: Are you trying to warn me away from this?
Trevor Mach: I'm looking out for you kid. I don't want to tell you not to fight the guy, cause I'd be a hypocrite...more than usual. I want you to get your head around what you have to do to survive...not win...survive.
Cade: Wow...you're NOT telling me to back down?
Trevor Mach: You got to fight your own battles. Just don't underestimate him alright?
Cade: I appreciate it. Thank you Trevor.
Trevor Mach: See? I can dole out the good advice. You know your mentor Ness? He and I were good buddies. I used to tell him stuff too.
Cade: Really? He doesn't say much, but Paula has nothing but bad things to say about you.
Trevor Mach: Heh-wait what?
Cade: She said to me that I should never listen to you. You were a drag on Ness, and you're poison to anyone you come in contact with.
Trevor Mach: I-
Cade: You constantly shove yourself into anything and everything, and that included the women's locker room.
Trevor Mach: But-
Cade: And that you were a narcissist sociopath of the highest order, and your "dumb ass awareness" of it, and tongue and cheek deflection just made it worse, and-
Trevor Mach: Hey! I got it!
Cade: I'm sorry! I was just repeating what she said. I don't think that.
Trevor Mach: It's fine...it's fine. I'll teach her *lights cigarette* that I'm not such a bad influence after all...and maybe get a fruit basket...and a card? I feel emotionally wounded. I have to go hit things. Want to come with?
The Angel Residence
Tack Angel was pacing back and forth, staring at the cuffs on the table, and remembering the warning issued to him by Stuart...
Trevor Mach: That Cade, he's a good kid.
Tack Angel: Yeah? Talk him out of fighting Tomo?
Trevor Mach: What? No! I told him to go for it!
Tack Angel: You what?!
Trevor Mach: What we do, it's not like it's wiffle ball nerf stick party battle.
Tack Angel: No, but that sounds fun.
Trevor Mach: ...Yeah it does, but he's got to man up to this. He'll do alright.
Tack Angel: How do you do it?
Trevor Mach: Do what?
Tack Angel: Just make such rash and quick decisions without even thinking about it?
Trevor Mach: I just think with my balls man.
Tack Angel: ...And that works out for you?
Trevor Mach: ...I have a crushed testicle, what do you think?
Tack Angel: But you still do it? Why?
Trevor Mach: I don't know. Just feels right....painful when it's cold though...or when I get wracked.
Tack Angel: I have a very important decision to make, but I didn't know how to make it. Maybe...maybe I should follow in your example.
Trevor Mach: What?
Tack Angel: I will do what Cade did. Yeah, I'll man up to my choices. Yeah. I've had this all backwards! The Star Prince can't give advice to the Bad Man, he must TAKE advice from the Bad Man!
Trevor Mach: I don't think that's a good ide-
Tack Angel: You will have my answers.
Trevor Mach: Better idea! Why don't you get the answers for yourself?
Tack Angel: Never! You will shepherd and guide me through life like a bright North Star, and from now on, I'm putting all my trust and faith in you! I'm off!
Trevor Mach: The fuck are you going?!
Tack Angel: I'LL KNOW WHEN I GET THERE!
Trevor Mach: ...People listening to me? They're going to regret it SO MUCH!
Tack ran out of the apartment building all smiles, dashing past people on the streets. He laughed a carefree laugh as he stretched out his arms, free of the burden of making his own decisions....then he tripped over a rock and smashed face first into the sidewalk.
*immediately cut music*
Tack Angel: OW! OW! WHY?! WHAT WAS I JUST THINKING?! WHY! OW! NEVER AGAIN! NEVER AGAIN! OW!

Ryan IQ: Alright, so listen up. Team battle tonight. The winning team determines who will face Firebrand X at Last Clash 2017. It will either be Razorblade or Sal Paradise. The man on the losing team will be installed as Special Referee, and will get the next shot. Got it?
Sal Paradise: Yep.
Razorblade: Got it.

Lady Renegades Locker Room
Rose Mulligan: I heard the sounds again. Looks like they are coming.
Lady M's: The question is when they'll stop screwing around and make a move.
Rose Mulligan: ...Let's keep an eye open during tonight's tag match.
Lady M's: I agree.
Saturn City Amusement Park Ring
The show opened with the Star Prince Tack Angel making his way out to a loud reaction. The 1 out of 100 guys Ace was hesitant as he climbed into the ring with mic in hand.
Tack Angel: Hey guys. Excited for tonight? That's good...I'm not AS excited as you are. I have bad news actually. I hate to start the show this way, but I have to say it now while I still have time. It's occurred to me...that my match with Stuart at Last Clash MIGHT be a bad idea. I...I don't know if I can take the repercussions of such a match. That is why....I-
Amy Angel suddenly appeared on the screen...
Amy Angel: Tack, let me stop you right there. I finally found out what's been going on with you...I was watching the product. You're afraid that Stuart is going to hurt this family aren't you? Tack, I love you, you're a great husband, but you can be dense sometimes. You forget who I am, and what I'm capable of too. I may have two babies with me right now, with one more on the way, but everyone knows not to underestimate a mama bear protecting her cubs. If he had the guts to hurt his own sister, I'd be capable of protecting myself. I come from the same family as he does. You need to trust me. You need to trust that your family can take the risks along with you. I WANT you to fight my brother a Last Clash. I'm asking you to. Please Tack, show him that this family won't back down. Also...get some milk before you come home.
The screen went black, as Tack stood in the ring with his head lowered...
Tack Angel: I...I...I-I-I-I WILL be having that match with Stuart after all! You heard her man, the wife isn't afraid of you, and neither am I! The Star Prince and ALL the star lights in his constellation are coming for you, and the 7 Nation Army will be brought to its knees! I hope we know what we're doing here Amy.

1. Singles: Bashin Dan beat Magnum PT via Brave Clash -> Pin
2. Lady Renegades Tag: Hope Mach/Christina Angel[o] beat Dulce Reina[x]/Demon Masaki II via Angel Driver -> Pin
3. Lady Renegades Singles: Murasaki beat Kelly Steele via Violet Frosion -> Pin
4. Singles: Tack Angel beat Camilo Ortega via DQ
5. Havok vs. 7NA: Razorblade[o]/Maniac/Troy/Mudslide/Severide/Subculture beat Firebrand X/Takumi Inui/Dragon Shiryu/Bashin Dan[x]/Kinniku Mike/Amigo via Piledriver -> Pin
-Bashin Dan tried to further prove himself with double duty ring action, first taking on the 7NA's newest member Magnum PT. The mustache was strong in PT, but a botched Mustache Ride and the heart of Dan lead to his downfall via Brave Clash.
-Hope Mach and Christina Angel were ready for the battle of their lives against Demon Masaki II and Dulce Reina, but it didn't turn out like expected. Late in the match, Demon Masaki II left Dulce Reina by herself, allowing Christina Angel to surprise her with the Angel Driver and the pin. As DMII walked to the back the sounds of motorcycles could be heard.
-The returning Murasaki continued to impress against the also returning Kelly Steele. Steele seemed directionless on her own and the Violent Violence preyed on that, winning the match following the Violet Frosion.
-Tack Angel and Camilo Ortega put on a clinic in their singles battle. The Ace of the Stars was preoccupied with his statement made earlier in the night, but he hid it well against an on form Ortega, who looked to be taking the match more seriously than he has in recent memory. Late in the bout, Maniac rushed out with chair in hand and clobbered Tack in the back. The 87's rushed out to help as the DQ was called. The 7 Nation Army ran out and a big brawl ensued. The action halted when the TackenTron showed live footage from outside the apartment of the Angel Family. Tack quickly rushed off.
-The main event saw a huge team battle with the winner, determining the opponent for Firebrand X at Last Clash 2017 for the Havok World Championship. A bombastic battle ended prematurely, when the already worn out Bashin Dan fell to Razorblade and the Piledriver. 1-2-3, and Razorblade cements his shot at World Championship. However...this also means that Sal Paradise gets to be special referee...
The Angel Residence
Tack rushed into the door of his apartment to find the living room trashed and riddled with bullets and shattered glass...
Tack Angel: ...AMY!? AMY?! AM-
Trevor Mach: Hey! Keep it down! I was happily blacked out!
Tack Angel: Trevor?! What are you doing here?!
Trevor Mach: I had the night off, and I WAS enjoying it, eating your leftovers, when some dickweeds barged in and and opened fire! They picked a REALLY bad time didn't they? Ahaha!
Tack Angel: You saved my wife? Trevor, I can't...wait...where is she? Where are the girls!?
Trevor Mach: They're at the hospital with Amy.
Tack Angel: WHA-
Trevor Mach: LET ME STOP YOU THERE! It's not what you think. It's just labor!
Tack Angel: Oh...alright. It's just....IT'S JUST LABOR!?!
Trevor Mach: Baby #3 on the way!
Tack Angel: I....I HAVE TO GET GOING?! WANT TO GO WITH ME?!
Trevor Mach: You know...after the night I had...think I'm just going to sit here for a bit. I'll catch up though.
Tack Angel: OK...could you put this milk up for me?
Trevor Mach: Sure thing pal. Go be a daddy again.
Tack Angel: Thanks man! YEAH!
Trevor Mach: ...Try not to impregnate anyone on the way there you virile bastard!
A few moments later Subculture appeared in the doorway.
Subculture: What the hell happened here?! Mach, why did you call me?
Trevor Mach: There you are! Listen, I got shot a few times, and I need your help. We gotta go to the hospital.
Subculture: Why would I help you? Why would you even think to ask me?! Tack JUST left and-
Trevor Mach: Dude's got a kid on the way. No fucking way was I going to bother him with this.
Subculture: I could let you bleed out.
Trevor Mach: ...You won't...tag partner.
Subculture: ...Fuck...take my hand.

Stuart approached the hospital bed, where his father was connected to a breathing machine...
Stuart: You actually did it? You ordered a hit on the Angel Family?!
Stuart Sr.: I did what you were supposed to do, but you couldn't. All you had were empty threats. You had no intention of ever-
Stuart: What? Hurting my sister?! Putting my nieces in danger?! Are you out of your MIND?!
Stuart Sr.: You let the Angel pollute out blood line! Because of you-
Stuart: Because of me, you're not dead. Remember that. I saved your life. When they came to END you, I stood in the line of fire! See these scars old man?! Look at these! Bullets riddled my body, trying to cover yours!
Stuart Sr.: And yet, I'm still stuck to this damn machine. You couldn't even sacrifice yourself right.
Stuart: ...You let Trevor Mach go, when you could have KILLED HIM, and instead you tried to KILL OUR FAMILY!!!
Stuart Sr.: You don't have what it takes to do what I do. You could never make these choices, and that's why you'll NEVER BE IN CHAR-*cough cough* W-what...what are you doing?
Stuart: *pulls plug to the machine* You're wrong...I'm making that choice right now.
Stuart Sr.: *cough cough* Stuart please. Remember....remember the plan! *cough cough cough* The Sanctum!
Stuart: The Sanctum? It wasn't what you thought it was, but it opened my eyes. I'm taking over. The families, they have already accepted it. Your time is at an end old man.
Stuart Sr.: Stuart....Stuart PLEASE! *cough cough cough* I AM YOUR FATHER!
Stuart: ...Heh...you don't really believe that do you? Luckily, they all do.
Stuart shut off the lights and walked out of the room as Stuart Sr. coughed and choked until...silence.

Amy Angel was surrounded by friends, family, and Havok Renegades as she held her new daughter.
Amy Angel: Everyone, I'd like to introduce you to Helios Angel.
Kinniku Mike: Ha! Another daughter Tack?
Tack Angel: I-is that a problem? I only have...oh...four daughters...at 32. Huh. I need to sit down.
Trevor Mach: What's her name?
Amy Angel: Helios.
Trevor Mach: Oh good!
Trevor limped with crutches over to the little girl with empty balloons.
Tack Angel: Helios Trevor....not helium.
Trevor Mach: Oh.
Amy Angel: Trevor? What happened to you?!
Tack Angel: Uh...he-
Trevor Mach: Hit the bottle too hard Amy...it hit back. Ha!
Tack Angel: AHAHAHAHA!
Amy Angel: Why are you nervously laughing like you're hiding something?
Tack Angel: ...No reason!

Saturn City Hospital
Amy Angel was cradling her new child, while a sleeping Tack held Christina and Rebeca. the Angel Family was at peace...until...
Stuart: ...Is that my new niece?
Amy Angel: You? what are-
Stuart: Keep it down. I just...wanted to see and make sure you were alright, and that my new niece was alright.
Amy Angel: Why do you care? You made a lot of threats to-
Stuart: Threats...empty threats. Amy, our father is dead.
Amy Angel: What are you talking about?
Stuart: Really dead this time Amy. You don't have to pretend that you didn't know he was still alive. I know he reached out to you.
Amy Angel: ...And I kept it a secret as long as he left my family alone...and he couldn't even do that....neither could you.
Stuart: You're my sister...you're my blood. I wasn't going to hurt you. Tack Angel on the other hand....I'm going to kill him.
Amy Angel: You will not.
Stuart: I do what I please now Amy. The burden is gone. Our father is dead...and I'm the one that killed him.
Amy Angel: You...you-
Stuart: The family...is under my control now, and the 7 Nation Army will crush my opposition, and position me into a place of absolute power. You, and the children, had better stay out of my way, especially when I hurt someone you really care about.
Amy Angel: Tack can take care of himself.
Stuart: ...I wasn't talking about Tack.
Amy Angel: Who? Stuart? Stuart, come back. Who?
Stuart walked back down to the street, where a man in a suit opened a limo door, and Stuart stepped inside and sat next to Magnum PT...
Magnum PT: What was that all about?
Stuart: Family business...not why I wanted you here. I want to know what you know. They still believe you right?
Magnum PT: Right. They think I'm undercover for you.
Stuart: When really you're undercover for me.
Magnum PT: I work for you, but I'm pretending I'm with them, by posing as a guy that's with you. Right? Is that what I'm doing? I'm losing my identity! Who am I?
Stuart: Get a hold of yourself. You work for me. What is happening on the inside?
Magnum PT: Kinniku Mike is about to return to singles action. Amigo's decision helped him decide that.
Stuart: What was Amigo's decision?
Magnum PT: The World Warrior has hit the road the again. He's taking a hiatus to get back to his roots.
Stuart: So, they're another man down. Perfect. The game continues in our favor.
Magnum PT: Oh...nice!
Havok Training Center
Firebrand X was working the heavy bag when...
Sal Paradise: Looking good champ.
Firebrand X: ...Paradise.
Sal Paradise: ....X. See, I can do that too. You don't like me do you?
Firebrand X: I can't get a read on you. Why the sudden resurgence?
Sal Paradise: Let's call it inspiration...I was inspired...by you of all people. You conquered your demon, turned the Demonbrand into MAX, won the E1, AND the World Championship. What a turn around! Whatever it was that brought you back...I wanted that too. I'll know I reached that point...when I can beat you.
Firebrand X: So...are you going to rig the results of my ma-
Sal Paradise: No. Not a chance. I'm calling it right down the line...as soon as I remember how to referee. I got this "Referee for Dummies" book, but all it says is "don't be stupid and pay attention to what's going on in the ring" and "If someone outside of the ring eliminates someone in the ring during a battle royale it SHOULD NOT COUNT!" Let's put it this way. If you win, then I'm your next challenger. If you lose, then I'll still beat you on the way to Razorblade.
Firebrand X: Sounds like you got it all figured out.
Sal Paradise: Heh...you know it.
Firebrand X: Problem though. The best laid plans are always crushed...by me.
On the other side of the gym, Trevor Mach was massaging his knee as he unwrapped the bandages and looked at his bullet scars.
Trevor Mach: ...Could be worse...it'll only hurt when I'm conscious.
Subculture: Mach.
Trevor Mach: What? What do you want? I'm busy! *swings from a bottle* Can't you see I'm busy training?
Subculture: I just heard that Ryan IQ is sending us to WBPW, to defend the tag titles before Last Clash 2017.
Trevor Mach: Yeah, I said it was cool. I didn't ask you because fuck you.
Subculture: Damn you! You're such an asshole! How the hell do you expect this to work?
Trevor Mach: I don't.
Subculture: ME EITHER! Listen, the 7 Nation Army wants you in the group, but I sure as hell DO NOT!
Trevor Mach: That's hilarious. The 87's want you in, and I don't.
Subculture: I'm not giving up my half of the tag titles! You'll have to rip this belt from my cold, dead hands!
Trevor Mach: Same.
Subculture: So what are we going to do about this?
Trevor Mach: ...How about you shut up and we defend the fucking titles?!
Subculture: ...Fine.
Trevor Mach: ...Want a drink?
Subculture: ...Sure, I-
Trevor Mach: Haha no! Fuck you. Now help me up, gotta stretch this knee out.
Subculture: ...Fine.

The Angel Residence
Tack Angel was sweeping up the glass in his apartment when he looked outside to see it snowing...
Tack Angel: Christmas eve. I didn't expect my wife to be at the hospital with the kids at a time like this. I didn't expect my place to be riddled with bullets either. I guess I don't ever know what I'm doing anymore. I mean, I'm talking to myself right now. Why? Who knows....who knows. *sigh* Christmas used to be so different, but then we met the actual Santa, and now he tends to try and avoid wherever Havok is. It wasn't even our fault! Pokey was-
Tack heard a knock at the door...
Tack Angel: Who could that be on Christmas Eve?
Tack opened the door, but didn't see anyone.
Tack Angel: ...Hello?
?: Down here smart stuff.
Tack Angel: ....Huh?
Tack looked down to see three really small people. Two boys with red and green hair, and a girl with blue hair.
Tack Angel: ...W-what?
?: About time! Listen, are you the Star Prince?
Tack Angel: H-h-huh?
?: It's not a hard question! Are you or are you NOT the Star Prince?
Tack Angel: ...I am.
?: He's the one the bird told us about?
Tack Angel: Star Bird?
?: No, the penguin.
Tack Angel: ...Penguin.
?: Listen, I'm Kukki, this is Makki, and this is Cherukiki. We're the Chebukki Trio! We need your help! Santa Claus is injured this year, and we need the Star Prince to-
Tack Angel: You're elves?
Kukki: What? No. We're the replacements for the elves.
Tack Angel: Huh?
Makki: We agreed to work for lower wages, and then when the elves were gone we unionized and made him pay us even more! We're BETTER than elves!
Tack Angel: Better at what exactly?
Cherukiki: What are you getting at?
Tack Angel: Nothing...I just....what's going on here?
Kukki: Santa needs the Star Prince to fly the sleigh! YOU have to deliver the toys to all the boys and girls or else Christmas will be cancelled!
Tack Angel: No more Christmas? So no more annoying Christmas songs over and over and over and over again?
Kukki: That's right!
Tack Angel: ...
Tack Angel slammed the door in the faces of the Chebukki Trio.
Cherukiki: Wow, what a dick!

Ryan IQ's Office
Trevor Mach: WHAT THE FUCK SUBCULTURE!?
Subculture: Are you an idiot!? Stupid question, I already know the answer! That guy was going to KILL YOU! He ENJOYED being set on FIRE! Did you not see that?!
Trevor Mach: YOU DO NOT INTERFERE IN MY MATCHES! Immediately, I lose my Burning Crown because of YOU!
Subculture: Better than losing your life!
Trevor Mach: Do you have ANY idea how hard it is to keep coming up with new Championships to pad out my wiki page?! Wait, why the fuck do you even CARE if I get set on fire, burned, or even killed?!
Subculture: WE are the World Tag Team Champions, whether we like it or not, and I as much as it would be easier for me, these titles can't be defended alone! I don't care about Havok, the 87's, or even the 7 Nation Army when it comes to being World Champion, and being World TAG TEAM Champion is just as important!
Trevor Mach: You think so?
Ryan IQ: He's right actually. I was just about to make some announcements about how I wanted the Havok World Tag Team Championships considered S Rank like the World Championship.
Trevor Mach: And the King of Clash?
Ryan IQ: ...Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Point is, I want the titles to mean just as much. Titles have to mean something Mach.
Trevor Mach: What? Why are you looking at me? You're the boss and booker. You LET me make that titles official!
Ryan IQ: ...I thought it'd be funny to see you get set on fire...turns out I have a conscious...who knew. I'm letting them keep the title by the way.
Trevor Mach: Again I fucking ask WHY?! Why did we even go over there and appease those assholes?
Ryan IQ: WBPW made a power play as pay back for the HWA deal with the territories. They were going to have ENN, who owns the internet market in Onett, cut access to our Network. I had to give them this.
Trevor Mach: And the Burning Match?
Subculture: Was LITERALLY YOUR IDEA! You got drunk and got into a fight with Given and Taken backstage! You challenged him!
Trevor Mach: ...Oh right...they're family you know...related to Tali.
Subculture: Who the fuck isn't related to you at this point?
Trevor Mach: You...I hope...I need to see your family tree.
Subculture: ...Go fuck yourself Mach.
Ryan IQ: ...Both of you get out of my office.

Bashin Dan looked frustrated as he was looking at his cell phone. He was approached by Benjamin...
Bashin Dan: *texting*I showed you my deck, please respond.
Benjamin: Dan, my friend, why do you look so uncouth staring at your strange device.
Bashin Dan: I feel the heat of battle coursing through my veins, but it's not getting me anywhere Ben!
Benjamin: Don't give up Dan. You're the Renegade Captain!
Bashin Dan: Yeah? Then why don't I have a match at Last Clash?
Benjamin: Neither do I. We should change that.
Bashin Dan: I agree. Let's take it to the enemy in the heat of battle to end the year!
Takumi Inui: I like your attitude kid.
Dragon Shiryu: I agree. We shall join you.
Bashin Dan: Join me?
Takumi Inui: You're the Renegade Captain right? You went toe to toe with the Wrecking Crew, and you survived Razorblade. You've got the heart for this. You lead, and we'll follow.

The North Pole?
The Star Prince and Santa Claus have just thwarted their arch-enemies, The Sturgeon General and Baron Von Bee! The eleves have wrapped them in ribbons to hold them down...
Santa Claus: Thank you Star Prince, you've saved Christmas. You truly are the "Fist of the North Pole".
Tack Angel: Just doing my job Santa! Justice is what I do. Delivering, peace, joy, and gifts is yours, and I guarantee these two won't keep you from it anymore.
Baron Von Bee: CURSSSSE YOU STAR PRINCE! YOU WILL FEEL MY STING YET!
Tack Angel: The only sting is what you're feeling right now. The sting....of defeat!
Comet and Cupid trotted up and used their hooves to conk the two villains heads together.
Tack and Santa: AHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Toilet
Tack Angel came to, hovering over the toilet filled with vomit. The sound of Amy knocking at the door finally brought him out of his hallucination.
Saturn City Mall
Amy finally got Tack out of the toilet of St. Finnegan's Bar and Pub, in the Saturn City Mall...
Tack Angel: You know what's odd? Is when a Celtic pub serves fish tacos. I don't get that. I got a little heartburn on top of that upset stomach. I don't think I'm gonna do that again.
Amy Angel: You were the one that wanted to come to the mall on what WOULD have been Christmas Day if it hadn't been cancelled this year. I wonder how something like that even happens?!
Tack Angel: I have NO idea. *looks at the camera and winks*
I'M GLAD CHRISTMAS IS OVER!!! HAPPY GO FUCK YOURSELF 2017!
-
St. Finnegan's Pub
Subculture was sitting by himself in the pub contemplating...
Subculture: ...Something funny about these fish tacos. Maybe it's just me but-
Local Mark: Well well well, look who it is boys! It's that asshole Subculture!
Subculture: Oh boy. No autographs right now.
Local Mark: You think I want an autograph? You're heel, and you don't like that place I live! I'm here to get in your face, and get myself over!
Subculture: ...You don't want to do that.
Local Mark: Oh yes I do, and so my friends. So, why don't we step outside you piece of shit.
Subculture: Look, I don't need you lowlifes judging me or itching for a fight! I got too much going on to be dealing with this shit right now, so just back off and we'll pretend you're not making the biggest mistake of your life!
Local Mark: Can you believe this guy? He's coward! Come on guys, chant with me! "You suck" "You suck" "You su-"
Subculture punched the Mark in the face, knocking him to the floor. Two of his friends grabbed Subculture as he was helped up.
Local Mark: Big mistake! Do you see this belt I've got? It means I bought it at a store, BUT it also means I'm hardcore, and I'm going to show you right n-
The Mark was interrupted again by another man smashing a beer bottle over his head.
Trevor Mach: The fuck's going on here?!
Subculture: Mach?! What are you doing?
Trevor Mach: Helping? I know, I'm surprised too.
Subculture: I can handle it!
Trevor Mach: Oh sure, you look in total control.
Subculture freed an arm and punched out one of the other Marks. The other threw a punch, but Subbie ducked it and knocked him to the ground too.
Subculture: You were saying?
Trevor Mach: Alright, you got me there, but what about them?
Subculture: Huh?
The room was full of other Marks, with signs, merch, and other "clever" props to get themselves over.
Subculture: What is this? Idiot Mark night or something?!
Trevor Mach: Let's "put em over" Subbie?
Subculture: Heh...fine.
The pub was quickly turned into a war zone, as the Marks attacked all at once. Mach tossed one onto the bar and threw him down the table, only to get a pool cue broken over his back. Subculture KO'd the pool player and tossed him onto the pool table. Another guy rushed at Mach, and he lifted him into the air and slammed him down on the Pool Mark, breaking the pool table in the process.
Outside of the pub, the glass wall shattered, as Mach Knee Triggered a Mark into the mall. The onlookers quickly took out their phones to capture the event. Subculture backed out as two guys came at him. He ducked just in time to let them punch each other.
Trevor Mach: One of them must have called for back up.
Subculture: What?
Trevor Mach: Down there. Look.
Subculture saw more Marks running up the escalator.
Subculture: Well shit, we've got enough drunk idiots up here as it is.
Trevor Mach: I've got this.
Trevor quickly limped him way to the escalator and slid down the hand rail tackling the Marks in the process. Subculture had to laugh, but he was caught off guard as the original Mark was back on his feet and managed to land a punch.
Local Mark: How do you like that?! Wrestlers aren't shit! WE make the show!
Subculture: You're delusional, and you hit like a bitch.
Local Mark: What?!
Subculture threw the Mark's toy title belt into the air. As the Mark looked him he clocked him in the chin with a stiff punch, knocking him back to the floor. Trevor Mach was fighting in the water fountain at this point, and getting out numbered. One of the Marks hit him over the head with a fountain sculpture. The impact brought back flashes of the fight in Purgatory, and the monster inside was set loose. He quickly gouged and bit at the Mark and tossed him out onto a mall bench, which collapsed on impact. One of the Marks brought out a knife and lunged at Mach, but Mach dodged and disarmed the Mark. He grabbed the knife and held it close to the Mark before dropping it in the water and delivering a harsh head butt.
Subculture: You're getting killed down there!
Trevor Mach: I'm just warming up!
Subculture was punching and kicking his way down an escalator, trying to get to the Marks on the first floor. Another Mark was about clobber Mach, when Subculture finally rushed in to knock him out.
Trevor Mach: Heh...thanks?
Subculture: ...Watch out!
Trevor Mach: Eh? You too!
Mach and Subculture both moved passed each other to hit the person behind the other. They turned to see that not only had they helped each other, but laid out ever single Mark in the mall. To celebrate they walked back up to the pub, which was now cleared out. Mach jumped the bar...
Trevor Mach: Well now...what are you having....partner?
Subculture: Something expensive.
As the two were about to toast, Curry Man ran in...
Curry Man: Why?! Curry Man's fans are all beaten! They came to see Ichiban spicy man! Why you do this?!
Trevor and Subculture: ....Oops! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Havok x WBPW: Last Clash 2017
It was the eve of a New Year, as the Saturn Dome was filled to capacity for an annual event like no other. The forces of Havok and WBPW collided once again for the super show known as Last Clash. All eyes were on the main event title matches, where the WBPW title would be decided in a tournament final, Rose Mulligan would try to finish her feud with Momo Miyuki and defend the Double Championship. Finally, Havok and the 7 Nation Army would collide, with Firebrand X defending against Razorblade, but with the addition of Sal Paradise as the Special Referee. Would this event reshape wrestling for 2018? Spoiler Alert: Yeah.
Havok x WBPW: Last Clash 2017
Saturn Dome, Saturn City
Renegade Television + ENN

10. Havok World Championship "The Fire Inside": Razorblade[Havok] beat Firebrand X(c)[Havok] via Crossface -> Referee Stoppage -> NEW Havok World Champion! Special Referee: Sal Paradise[Havok]
-Opening match saw Metal Havok take on the Sharks with the Trios Championships on the line. The color coordinated heroes of Havok thwarted the dastardly Sharks after Kain hit the Shadow Kick on Shark #1 for the pin.
-A huge upset early in the night, as Christina Angel showed that Angel fire that propelled her father to Ace status. The vicious Murasaki has been dangerous and deadly in her return, but the bloody Christina refused to stay down, escaping the Violet Frosion, and coming back with stiff kicks and an Angel Driver for the pin.
-Another upset followed in the big 8-Man between Havok and the 7 Nation Army. Renegade Captain Bashin Dan lived up to his name, eating sickening moves from the 7NA, only to stand up before Magnum PT and hit the Brave Clash to win the battle for his team. Takumi, Shiryu, and Benjamin held Dan aloft as they celebrated a big win over 7NA.
-The Television Championship has been in WBPW hands for months, as Cade continues to show why he is the next supernova in wrestling. His biggest test to date was the Star Prince Tack Angel, but this would be his deadliest test, as Ishihiro Tomo was let off his leash for the first time in some time, going all out against the rookie. Cade took the beating of a lifetime, but pulled off a miracle, escaping the Brainbuster to trap Tomo-kun in the Cross Armbreaker after some amazing maneuvering. The strain on Tomo's separated shoulder forced him to pass out rather than submit, and the referee called for the bell. Cade defended the title once again, and solidified his status. After the match, some speculated that Cade may have learned the Cross Armbreaker from a certain Bad Man who used to use the move.
-Lady M's and Hope Mach teamed to represent Havok against Erica and Tracy, in a reunion match for the WBPW duo, in what was sure to be a hard hitting contest. Unfortunately, it didn't get very far. Early in the match, the sound of motorcycles roared, as the competitors looked to the stage. Suddenly, women in masks and leather jumped the guard rails and rushed the ring, attacking the competitors. The locker room emptied out, but the damage was done. M's knew exactly what she was dealing with from the SPARKLE revival promotion. The Skull and Bones Motorcycle Club, but she knew who was under the mask before, but not know. In another surprise, the Skull and Bones revealed the 7NA logo on their biker vests. An unholy alliance that could rock the Lady Renegades division in the continuing war.
-The Havok World Tag Team Championships were on the line next, in a highly touted bout that was meant to establish the belts as truly World Championship S tier. Grind and a recently revived Tomo-kun represented the 87's and Havok, while Troy and Maniac were the contingent for 7NA. A hectic war ensued, with the theme of the match being if the team of Mach and Subculture could work together, or if they even would try or let a member of their respective stables snag the win and the belts instead. Surprisingly they seemed to be on the same page, and in an interesting move, Mach let Subculture hit Grind with the KO Punch and an STO while he pushed Troy to the ground outside the ring and ran the ropes to hit the Knee Trigger on Maniac for the pin and win. This unruly and unpredictable tag team survived the big test, and will lead the Tag Team Division at the start of the New Year.
-The most emotional match of the night would see the Star Prince Tack Angel finally face 7NA Leader Stuart in the ring. Many were expecting a one sided win for Tack Angel, but were surprised to find that Stuart was his match in the ring, showing no signs of ring rust, and in fact a vast improvement. Angel and Stuart went move for move, strike for strike, and hold for hold. A shocking turn of events would change things though, as the big screen showed the Skull and Bones attacking Christina Angel in the back. A stunned father watched on, but Stuart spun him around for a kick and a Cradle Piledriver for the 1-2-3. Stuart had defeated the Star Prince, using his own daughter against him.
Stuart: Look at you! You're pathetic Angel! Laying on the mat in defeat. I've always been better than you. I will never forgive you for what you've done to my family, my bloodline. I will never forget. Still, family is family right, and I never had any intention of hurting my true blood. HOWEVER, that...whoever that is...is NOT my blood. An abomination from an aborted time line. A remnant. An echo. To me, she's only one thing...your greatest weakness, and it's one that I WILL exploit.
-Ness and Captain Strong put on a classic in the Tournament Finals for the WBPW Grand Championship. After the title was removed from Derek Mach, a big tournament was held, a tournament that kept WBPW VERY competitive in the ratings war, with some of their best wrestling coming from the fight for the title. Two standard bearers made it to the end, and put on a great match, but Ness, the OG, the first champion of champions defeated Strong with the PK Rockin' to reclaim his spot at the top of WBPW, and possibly of all wrestling.
-The Destiny Battle was next, the semi main event. Rose Mulligan, the Women's Double Champion took on Momo Miyuki in a stiff striking match. Rose was hearkening back to her extreme wrestling roots that she learned from Bloody Rose, in a gruesome scene where she slapped the bloody hell out of Momo Miyuki, who slapped back, sending her crimson mask dripping all over the match. Finish came when Momo went high risk ,and went to the top for a axe handle, but Rose caught her in the air, and in once fluid motion hit a Bloody Bomb followed by the pin. Rose Mulligan retained the Double Championships. The celebration was short lived though, as the sound of motorcycles once again filled the Dome.
-Main event time, as Firebrand X defended the World Championship against Razorblade, with Sal Paradise as referee. A classic in the making that was hindered by a lot of outside interference. The 7NA tried to help Razor, with the Havok Renegades fighting back. Amidst all of that, Firebrand X managed to hit the Fireslide, but only got a two count, thanks to Maniac putting Razor's foot on the ropes. Sal Paradise seemed to be calling it down the line, but missing the actions of Maniac brought up suspicion. Razorblade recovered and hit the Piledriver on Firebrand, but only got the 2 Count. Firebrand's mask came off, and the MAX was unleashed to a big reaction. The action was turned up to 11, as MAX's more flamboyant and high energy offense caught Razorblade off guard. However, Razor did finally take MAX down, following a hard lariat thanks to Severide tripping him up from the outside. Razorblade put MAX in the Crossface, and held it hard. Firebrand tried to fight and reach for the ropes, but he was stuck in the center of the ring. For what seemed like an eternity, MAX fought the Crossface. In the end though, a somewhat controversial decision, as Sal Paradise called for a Referee Stoppage, and awarded the win and the World Championship to Razorblade. A chorus of boos filled the Dome as the 7 Nation Army flooded the ring to hoist up Razorblade and his newly won gold. They tried to thank Sal, but Sal backed away, looking unhappy with the result. He tried to help up Firebrand, but MAX pushed him away, accusing him of a screwjob. The in ring action of the year ended in controversy, and a new champion.

Tack Angel was the guest of honor at he first annual "Star Con", where the Starlights of the Constellation were honoring their favorite wrestler, hero, and all around human being. At this all important event a Q&A panel was happening...
Star Fan #1: You've suffered some hard losses this year. How are you planning on coming back in 2018?
Tack Angel: ...Umm...push ups...sit ups....and plenty of juice.
Star Fan #2: No really, you lost against Stuart, Firebrand X, Cade of WBPW! You lost the Championship. You failed to capture the E1. You have seen your family put in harm's way many times and-
Tack Angel: You guys are here because you're FANS right? I mean dang! I'm very aware of the losses I suffered. Late 2017 was not kind to me, but...uh...well nothing, it just wasn't kind.
Young Star Fan: Y-you're not giving up...are you Star Prince?
Tack Angel: Aw dang. Not little one, I never give up. A Star is constantly burning, as is the passion in my soul for peace and justice. As long as evil exists in the ring, I'll be there to fight it. Stuart, has taken me to new limits, and pushed me to anger I haven't felt before, but I can't imagine he has any more tricks to-
Stuart: That's where you're wrong Tack.
Tack Angel: Oh darnicles.
Stuart: I'm just getting started with you. I'm going to push you beyond your limits. I'm going to drive you mad.
Tack Angel: How do you plan on doing that?
Stuart: Well, the 7 Nation Army is going to celebrate the end of 2017, by giving you a taste of your 2018. We look to the future, with a blast to the past.
Tack Angel: Past?
The VBW Champion CP Munk made his way out in a 7 Nation Army t-shirt. He slowly walked up to Tack Angel, and mouthed "it's time" ....Tack Angel responded by mouthing "7:05 pm".

Bad Dudes Bar
Lady M's was pouring drinks for New Years, but when a certain figure entered the bar, she quickly moved to the other side.
Lady M's: You always have to keep me fucking waiting don't you?
Alyssa Flash: What do you expect? It's New Year's and I hate your guts.
Lady M's: Yeah yeah whatever. You know why I called you.
Alyssa Flash: ...I know, but we had a deal. Where is the money?
Lady M's: *sigh*
Lady M's reached across the bar to the register and pulled out a wad of cash.
Lady M's: Here. Now talk. Tell me what I want to know.
Alyssa Flash: ...You forgot to say please.
Lady M's: Fucking Alyssa Flash! Come on!
Alyssa Flash: Fine! I'll tell you. By the way...it's not Alyssa Flash anymore...it's Aly Smash now.
Lady M's: What? Why?
Alyssa Flash: ...Legal reasons...and no one could spell my name right.
Lady M's: Fantastic. Who cares! Now talk!
Aly Smash: Yes, the S&B are back in full force. NO, I'm not apart of it, and I have no idea who is.
Lady M's: That's it? That's all you've got?!
Aly Smash: Did that disappoint you? Good. Always happy to disappoint. Is that all?
Lady M's: ...You better not be lying to me...Smash.
Aly Smash: ...Would I ever lie to you?
Kyoto, Edo
[youtube]ryhwPP_Ilyc&index=20&list=PL8D46D485CE2B534C[/youtube]
Amigo: Is the camera on? Hello everyone, we're here in Edo, as I the World Warrior, start my world tour. Not only will I be fighting around the world, but I'm also going to be showing you the sights and sounds of these various locales. Edo takes the New Year very seriously, so let's check it out. Y-you got money right? Great, because I'm starving.
Amigo was then recorded sitting at an outdoor eatery.
Amigo: ...Oh hello, I didn't see you there. Yeah, I'm kidding cameraman, just shut it. I'm here eating some Osechi, which is the traditional meal for the New Year. It's a lot of boxed stuff like...this...I think it's lobster....it's good whatever it is. If you pan around, you can see also the traditional Kadomatsu, towers of pine and bamboo...those are cool right? I really like the party atmosphere around here. Getting to wear this kimono is nice. I feel a draft though. Wait...what do you mean I have to wear something UNDER the kimono. I thought I could free bal-
The scene switched to a shot of several Edo shrines, with people giving a prayer for a better new year, followed by a montage of Amigo eating at several food stalls.
Amigo: No Cameraman, I haven't had enough yet! I told them no octopus, so I got this takoyaki stuff instead. Great thing too, because I'm allergic to octopus. Wait, why are you looking at me like that?
The scene switched to Amigo holding his stomach as he left a local hospital.
Amigo: Don't say anything...not one word. Wait, what is this? A Hatsumode Charm? A good luck charm for me? Thanks I guess. Wait, it's because you hope I don't eat anymore octopus by accident? You son of a-
The scene switched again to the Kyoto Dome.
Amigo: That wraps up the tour, because I'm going to the hotel to throw up, but make no mistake, I'll be ready to kick some ass in Edo come January 4th, when New Edo Pro Wrestling presents: Wrestle Pantheon XII! I need some pepto.

Havok Wrestling Update
Tommy Dukes: Tommy Dukes here, the Dick Clark of Wrestling, and it's a NEW YEAR for Havok Wrestling! Wow, what a way to end 2017 right? It's insane what's been going on! The return of the territories, rival promotions, an invasion by the 7 Nation Army, AND I finally got that molar removed before the holidays, so big changes all around! Speaking of changes, 2018 will be bringing even more changes to Havok, with some signings and departures...
Ryan IQ's Office
Grind: What the hell bro?
Ryan IQ: What?
Grind: You're sending us off again?!
Ryan IQ: Well...yes...yes I am.
Grind: ...Can I ask why?
Ryan IQ: Yes, apparently you CAN ask why.
Grind: ....MAY I ask why?
Ryan IQ: It's simple really. Tomo-kun SERIOUSLY needs surgery.
Grind: That shoulder's been separated longer than it's been attached at this point.
Ryan IQ: All the same, he needs surgery. We're also hoping to get him healthy for a trip to New Edo. He's a big deal over there, in music videos, and in movies, and WE get a percentage!
Grind: That's all great, but what about me! We literally came back to reform the 87's and fight the 7 Nation Army!
Ryan IQ: That's not quite working out is it? They have the World Championship. They have half the World Tag Team Championship. What I need from you is to go to WBPW, and get us back that Havok Television Championship.
Grind: Nani?
Ryan IQ: You're a lucha blader. You're the Jet Setter. You're a former World Champion for crying out loud. You're better than what you've been. Last year saw a lot of wrestlers getting their fire back. I need that from you, and I need that title back before the 7 Nation Army gets it. It's a title grab at this point.
Grind: Uh...
Ryan IQ: We'll pay for your travel expenses.
Grind: DEAL! That title is MINE!
Ryan IQ: Yep...see ya later! Uh...take Tomo with you please. He's looking at me funny.
Grind: Yeah, he does that, just don't make any sudden movements.
Havok News Update Studio
Tommy Dukes: And we're back! So Grind and Tomo are on a mission! This opens the door to some new talent to join us in Havok! I introduce first, the Viking Warrior Vjhearson Golvoth!
A large man with fiery red hair and a beard burst into the room through a wall...
Vjhearson Golvoth: RAAAAAAAWWWWW!
Tommy Dukes: Holy shit, he's like 7 feet tall! I mean, I'm not impressed by the size and stature at all!
Vjhearson Golvoth: My lands were cold and empty, empty because I had conquered all of my foes. This new battleground will be mine, and I WILL become WORLD CHAMPION!
Tommy Dukes: I believe it. I totally believe it. Next, we have Deutschland export, former boxer turned wrestler Harte Faust
A man in a yellow jumpsuit comes in through the hole in the wall with feathered hair and a thick mustache. He rips open the front of his jump suit to reveal thick chest hair.
Tommy Dukes: Yeah, that's about what I expected.
Harte Faust: Ich werde die Konkurrenz schlagen!
Tommy Dukes: Yeah! Sure! Next, we have a returning favorite. A woman who claims to be from anywhere and "everywhere", it's Jenny Everywhere!
A short, dark haired girl with goggles and a bomber jacket appears out of nowhere.
Tommy Dukes: Whoa! That's not allowed in the ring...teleporting I mean...just saying. It IS illegal right Steve? Yeah, I thought so.
Jenny Everywhere: I've been to lots of places, but to me, the best wrestling can be found right HERE!
Tommy Dukes: And she's not just saying that because she's contracted to.
Jenny Everywhere: I know every style, a hybrid like Firebrand X, but I bet he's never tangled with inter-dimensional beasts before!
Tommy Dukes: You should watch the product more. Finally, we have a VERY interesting addition. The first 10-Year-Old Renegade! No, I'm not joking. A young wrestling prodigy has arrived, and he's not waiting to start his career as a wrestler. I introduce you to Raymond Furstwood!
A blonde kid in a stripped shirt and hat walks.
Tommy Dukes: Don't let his appearance fool you, he's actually pretty good!
Raymond Furstwood: Pretty good? I'm the best. No one is as knowledgeable as I am about wrestling! I was born in a wrestling ring, at least, that's what grandpa says.
Tommy Dukes: Yes, that's right, you're not coming in alone. This young man is managed by his grandfather, best friend, and generous donator to us which has nothing to do with is hiring, Dr. Robert Furstwood!
An elderly man in a brown sweater vest, glasses, and a tweed jacket stumbles in.
Dr. Furstwood: Yes yes, my grandson Raymond, is a genius! For years, he's followed me in my adventures, and showed that he is more than capable of following his dreams! Isn't that right Timmy?
Tommy Dukes: Tommy.
Dr. Furstwood: Jimmy! Sorry Jimmy! I didn't recognize you!
Tommy Dukes: You don't know me.
Dr. Furstwood: My grandson has one thing these other wrestlers don't!
Dr. Furstwood and Raymond Furstwood: THE POWER OF YOUTH!
Tommy Dukes: That's great and all, but you DO see Vjhearson Golvoth other there right?
Dr. Furstwood: What? MY GOD! Are-are you sure about this Raymond?! He looks awful big Raymond!
Raymond Furstwood: Power of youth Grandpa! Believe in it!
Dr. Furstwood: Of course I do, that's why you're here!
Raymond Furstwood: You don't look so tough to me "GIANT"! Why don't you just shove off!
Vjhearson Golvoth: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWW!!!
Dr. Furstwood: Power of youth! Remember the Power of youth! Your mother is going to kill me Raymond!
The Angel Residence
A knock on the door awoke Amy, who grabbed a bat.
Amy Angel: If any ex-brothers or chipmunks are outside, just remember that I have SEVERAL children in here, and I WILL knock you ou-oh, it's you Iroha. Haven't seen much of you since you're moved out...which I greatly appreciate by the way. Do you need Tack?
Iroha: Actually, I am here for you. I have trained myself harder than I've ever trained before, and I'm ready to return to the ring, but first, I challenge YOU!
Amy Angel: ME?
Iroha: I challenge you, for the right to be the TRUE wife of Senpai! I will be the STAR PRINCESS!
Amy Angel: ...
Amy slammed the door in Iroha's face.
Amy Angel: Tack is right, that IS a satisfying feeling!
