17th November 2002


A red limo with the license plate HWE pulls up to the wrestlers entrance of the arena. Mr. Giles and the large masked man step out, the masked man has Ryan Maxem's belt draped over his shoulder. Mr. Giles opens the door the masked man walks into Survival.

Pyros blast throughout the Hartford Civic Center in Hartford Connecticut as Survival begins. Grimjack is seen sitting behind his desk in his office. His chest is bare and you can’t see if he’s totally naked underneath the desk. Grimjack is folding his papers and looks up.

Grimjack: I have a major announcement to make-

Suddenly Anderson opens the door and comes in.

Anderson: Grim man listen closely.. I deserve a rematch against Maxem because that match at Bloodlines was just a fluke. I’m really pissed!

Grim: Derek you know we’ve been friends for a long time but I can’t just go handing out World title shots to everyone. Beat Nick Fury and I’ll see what I can do.

Anderson: Piece of cake.

The scene goes to the arena where Keith Kincaid and Trent Brown are at ringside.

TB: What announcement does Grimjack have to make?

KK: Who the hell cares all I want to know is who is this masked man???

TB: The only thing we know is that he works for the board of directors, who seem set upon ousting Grimjack from the HWA. But I don’t know what that could have to do with Ryan Maxem because Maxem and Grimjack are enemies!

KK: Maybe the masked man has a prior vendetta against Maxem.

TB: Only time will tell but now it’s time for our first match, Danny Storm versus Nate Hartman.

KK: Hartman fought bravely in the historic Three Steps to Heaven match last week but he ultimately got chokeslammed a hundred feet down by Sett. That match was brutal, I’m survived that there were no casualties. But Hartman and Craven were both taken to the emergency room, and I hear Fudge severely injured his knee.

TB: And Storm wrestled the legend Grimjack to a draw. This match should be very good.

KK: And Hartman asked for this match to be X-treme rules which means anything goes!

Storm’s music hits and he comes out wearing the Chewbacca costume that he has to wear for a week. He looks embarrassed as the crowd laughs and throws garbage at him dirtying his suit.

KK: Ha ha ha! Poor Hartman. He gets to take the costume off today but not until after this match, that’s when a full week is up.

Storm gets in the ring and suddenly Hartman comes running out of the crowd and onto the ring apron, he gets on top of the turnbuckle and jumps off hitting Storm with a flying clothesline as the match starts.

Hartman vs. Storm

Storm gets up and starts kicking Hartman in the gut but Hartman side steps and gives Hartman a punch in the eye and follows it up with a snap suplex. Storm gets up and rushes Hartman but Hartman catches both his arms and hooks them, he picks him up and delivers a running flapjack. Storm is getting up and it looks like he is trying to readjust his Chewbacca mask to see better.

TB: I think the mask is hampering his ability to see.

Hartman sees Storm struggling and starts to point and laugh and the crowd starts laughing too. Hartman goes outside the ring and finds a paintball gun under the ring. He gets into the ring and gets on one knee for better aim, then he starts popping paint capsules at Hartman, painting up his brown furry costume a bright orange. Hartman runs around blind as the shots give him sharp pains and the crowd is laughing.

KK: Ha ha this is great!

Suddenly a hush comes across the crowd as a naked Grimjack comes running down the ramp holding a large life size Darth Maul cardboard cutout. Grimjack’s bathing suit area is blacked out to viewers at home using technology but the people in the arena get a good look at his manhood and are shocked by it’s large size. Grimjack slides into the ring holding the cutout and Hartman sees this and starts shooting the paintball gun at him but Grimjack uses the Darth Maul cutout as a shield. Hartman starts shooting at Grimjack’s feet which are naked as well and the paint gun makes large splotches on the unprotected skin. Grim fights through the pain and pushes Hartman down with the Darth Maul causing him to drop the gun.

KK: Why the hell is Grimjack helping Storm out?

Grimjack grabs Hartman’s arm to put the Six Second Magin submission on him but realizes that would involve putting a man’s arm next to his open crotch and decides not to. Hartman sees this and pulls his hand away in disgust. Hartman runs out of the ring. Grimjack runs and gives Hartman a baseball slide into the barrier. Then he picks up a chair and hits him over the head. Grimjack grabs a mic.

I bet you’re all wondering what the hell I’m doing. Well just as Storm has to wait till after this match to take off his costume, I have to wait till after it to put some damn clothes on. I got sick of Hartman toying with Storm with the paintball gun so I came out here to get them to hurry up with the damn match. Carry on.

Grimjack goes and sits down next to Keith and Trent at the announcers table.

TB: Uh . . . hi Grimjack.

Storm has fixed his vision and goes outside the ring and grabs Hartman. He irish whips him into the ring steps. Then he reaches under the ring and comes out with a length of barbwire. He can hold it because of his gloves that came with the costume. He starts to choke Hartman with it, causing blood to spurt out of his neck. Hartman stands up with Chewie still on his back and turns around and back him into the guardrail. Chewie still doesn’t let go. Hartman grabs a chair and hits Chewie over the head making him let go finally. Hartman runs his hands over his neck and his hand comes back covered in dripping blood and he smiles.

TB: This match is getting sick.

Grimjack: That’s what the HWA is about under my watch.

Hartman goes under the ring and pulls out a bullwhip. He starts whipping Chewie in the ass making Chewie run up the ramp screaming, causing the crowd to laugh hysterically. Hartman uses the whip to wrap around Chewie’s leg causing him to trip. Chewie gets back up and Hartman cracks the whip wrapping it around Chewie’s neck. Chewie uses his strength to pull it back making Hartman fall on his face.

Grimjack: This is still taking too long dammit!

Grimjack gets up and Trent gets his bare ass in his face to his chagrin. Grimjack walks over and kicks Storm in the gut. He goes to get Storm in a rock bottom but then lifts him up and down on his shoulder like a cross between the rock bottom and stone cold stunner.

TB: That’s Grimjack’s signature the Exodus. Been a while since we’ve seen that.

Grimjack just turns and walks away knowing that the match is over. Hartman crawls over and makes the cover on Storm, 1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . . Hartman wins the match. Hartman looks up and sees Grim walking away and has a mad look on his face.

TB: Hartman picks up the win but it looks like he didn’t appreciate all the interfering by our president.

KK: Well too bad because the president does what he pleases, and now he can wear clothes if he pleases.

TB: And that’s what matters.

Commercial break

Ryan Maxem is seen walking through the backstage hallway. He pushes open the door to Grimjack’s office and barges in.

Maxem: Grimjack I want my belt back. I know you know who has it. Now get me my belt back or else.

Grimjack: Or else what. Or else I will make sure you don't make it to Jam with the title. Or else I suspend you. I don't know who has your belt, but I do know it is the same guy who attacked me at Bloodlines. As much as I hate to say it, we are in the same boat here.

Maxem gets a look of distain on his face, suddenly the lights go out in the office. A lot of banging around can be heard, then the lights come back on and Grimjack and Maxem are laid out.

KK: What the hell is going on? Nobody is safe here tonight. I bet the masked man did that, whoever he is.

TB: Now it’s time for the Hall of Famer Anderson to take on the infamous Nick Fury. These two got into it last week during the Three Steps to Heaven match.

Fury’s music hits and he comes walking out looking disheveled as usual and smirking. He gets in the ring and starts to stretch waiting for Anderson. Suddenly Anderson comes running down the ramp and slides into the ring.

Anderson vs. Fury

Anderson gets up and starts laying into Fury with vicious hits, looking as pissed as he’s ever been. He irish whips Fury hard into the corner and Fury falls down. Anderson rushes him but Fury sticks his leg up catching Anderson in the stomach, Anderson stumbles backwards but it doesn’t phase him enough and he rushes back over to Fury and starts mud stomping him. The ref tries to get him to stop the brawling and make it a clean wrestling match but Anderson just pushes him away. Anderson picks Fury up and gives him a chokeslam.

KK: Jesus Christ what has gotten into Anderson anyway?

Anderson goes for a cover but somehow Fury kicks out.

KK: I’ve always believed that Fury had potential since the tag match at Rebirth a month or so back. Kicking out of that pin just now was impressive but I don’t know if anyone could defeat Anderson the way he’s acting right now.

TB: Anderson isn’t even thinking straight, he’s bound to make a mistake and Fury will have a chance to capitalize upon it.

Anderson is picking Fury up by the hair when Fury gives him a low blow making Anderson drop to his knees in pain.

TB: What did I just say?

Fury goes to the top turnbuckle and lands a big frog splash on Anderson. He makes the cover but Anderson kicks out. Anderson gets up but Fury gives him a belly to belly suplex. Anderson gets right back up, Fury swings, misses, Anderson catches both his arms behind his back and picks him up for a crucifix powerbomb, he throws Fury up into the air, catches him in the regular powerbomb position and delivers a huge Attitude Adjuster powerbomb right onto the back of Fury’s neck in the middle of the ring.

TB: Good god that’s the most lethal powerbomb I’ve witnessed since the Attitude Adjuster off the ladder through the announcer’s table two weeks ago on Sett.

KK: It’s got to be over.

Anderson drops down and covers Fury and gets the 123 for the pin as Fury doesn’t have the energy to kick out. Anderson walks away looking determined as Fury is still lying in the ring.

Commercial Break

The scene goes back to the ring where Nick Fury is starting to get up. Suddenly a young looking man of about 19 or so slides into the ring. Fury gets up and is met with a huge clothesline by the man. The man goes outside and gets a chair. He gets in and irish whips Fury and as he’s coming back he tosses Fury the chair and gives him a drop kick into the chair. The young man runs out of the ring and escapes through the crowd before security can catch him.

TB: Time for the returning Morgoth to take on the rookie Exxxtreme, who attacked Morgoth last week at Bloodlines.

Morgoth vs. Exxxtreme

The HWA theme hits and out comes Exxxtreme, he looks very pumped up for his debut match. The crowd gives out a big welcoming cheer for Exxxtreme. He walks down the ring very confident. He hops in the ring and poses for the fans a little before The HWA Theme hits again and Morgoth appears on the ring. The fans go wild as to welcome him back. He runs down into the ring and hops on the top turnbuckle and raises his hand, he jumps back down and faces his opponent.

TB: Here we go, the start of the match.

KK: This should be interesting

The ref looks at both of them and then signals for the bell. They start by locking up, Morgoth over powers Exxtreme and snap suplexs him. Exxtreme is quickly to get up and they both lock up again. This time Exxtreme over powers Morgoth and delievers a belly to belly suplex. Morgoth lands on his back, hitting his feet on the middle ropes. Exxtreme goes over to Morgoth and puts him into a head lock. Out of no where Morgoth pokes Exxtreme in the eye and Exxtreme lets got of the hold holding his eye in pain. Morgoth quickly gets up and takes down Exxtreme with a leg sweep.

TB: This has been a very energenic match by the both of them. Both overpowering and countering each other. Morgoth has Exxtreme in a Head lock using his legs. Exxtreme is squirming to get out but can’t. Morgoth lets go of the hold and pops back up. Exxtreme flips off Morgoth and spears him to the ground. Exxtreme begins to punch Morgoth in face.

KK: That wasn’t very sports like.

TB: Its wrestling, that is what is supposed to happen.

Exxtreme picks up Morgoth and throws him into the ropes, Exxtreme delievers a devastating clothesline. Exxtreme begins to kick Morgoth in the face, Exxtreme then bounces off the ropes and does a nasty leg drop on Morgoth. Exxtreme gets up and repeats what he just did. Exxtreme climbs up one of the turn buckles and tries another leg drop but Morgoth rolls out of the way and Exxtreme lands right on his ass.

KK: Ouch! Right on the kisser.

TB: Morgoth gets back up as well as Exxtreme and Morgoth connects Exxtreme with a boot to the face. Morgoth goes for a pin. One…Two…kick out! Morgoth tries again One…Two…Kick out!

KK: Very great match up so far. Who are you’re predicitions to win right now Trent?

TB: Both of them are doing a very good job right now, either of them could win this match.

KK: Well that wasn’t really the answer I was looking for but, oh well.

Morgoth picks up Exxtreme but Exxtreme low blow him and then DDT’s Morgoth into the canvas. The ref thinks about ringing the bell but just gives Exxtreme a warning not to do it again. Exxtreme picks up Morgoth and hits a Death Valley Driver on him. Exxtreme goes to pin Morgoth, One…Two…Kick out! Exxtreme is shocked by the fact that Morgoth kicked out, he picks up Morgoth and connects with a few shots to the head before DDTing him. Exxxtreme goes for another pin, One…Two…Thr-Kick Out! Exxtreme starts to argue with the referee.

TB: Argueing with the ref isn’t going to get you any where.

KK: Any way, there is no way to reason with a ref, they are unreasonable when it comes to pin decisions.

Morgoth gets up and pokes Exxtreme on the shoulder. Exxtreme turns around and Morgoth clotheslines him to the ground. Morgoth tries to pin Exxtreme. One…Two…Kick Out.

KK: Has this become a kick out match or something?

TB: I don’t know but these guys seem to be strong and resistant to being pinned. Morgoth goes picks up Exxtreme and throws him into the corner. Morgoth runs over to the turnbuckle and climbs up to the third turnbuckle while carrying Exxtreme with him. Morgoth tries to power bomb him but Exxtreme reverses and Morgoth lands on the canvas, his head bounces off of it. Exxtreme lands a moonsault on Morgoth and goes for another pin. One…Two…Kick out! Exxtreme rolls out side to re-collect him self. He thinks for a moment and then pulls Morgoth outside of the ring. They begin fighting and Morgoth throws Exxtreme into the ring post, knocking him down.

KK: That has got to hurt Trent, bad.

TB: The ref begins the Ten count.

One…Two…Three…Four…Five…Morgoth goes over to Exxtreme…Seven…he throws him in the ring. Morgoth climbs in the ring himself and starts pounding Exxtreme with his foot. Morgoth delievers a few elbow drops on Exxtreme right in the chest. Morgoth picks up Exxtreme and throws him against the ropes and kicks him in the gut and power bombs him, Exxtreme’s head bounces against the canvas.

TB: This might be it Keith

KK: It has been a great match so far. Each of them are making their debut in HWA, well Morgoth is making his re-debut in the HWA, but it is the same thing, right?

TB: I guess so.

Morgoth picks up Exxtreme and deleivers a brain buster. Morgoth goes for the pin again. One…Two…Three!! Morgoth gets up and raises his hands in victory, Exxtreme lays on the ground, the ref goes over to Exxtreme and starts talking to him, making usre he is alright.

TB: That was one of the best debut matches I have seen in a long time by two rookies.

KK: I don’t think Morgoth is a rookie.

TB: I ment coming into HWA.

The Scene Opens shortly after the match between Morgoth and Exxxtreme we pan to a shot of The Militias locker room, we go inside, where everybody barring Fudge is seen

Ryan Maxem : So Michael how’s Fudge doing?

Michael Diamond : I went to visit him in hospital but he was nowhere to be found, I have seen him once since Bloodlines, which was when the medics took him away because of his knee, so he wont be here tonight

Ryan Maxem : Man I never knew his knee was as bad as that

Sett : He tries not to show his pain but I have wrestled against him, and he feels it

Michael Diamond : Yeah he does

Ryan Maxem : Well lets move on, I would rather forget about problems and think only. . .of. . . .

Maxem pauses in an overwhelmingly surprised way. . .

Voice from the Door : Michael pick up your jaw

Michael shakes it off. . .

Michael Diamond : F. . .F. . .Fudge?! What are you doing here?

The camera turns to see Fudge, hobbling in on crutches with his Re-Injured knee heavily supported. . .

Fudge : You should have known I would be here. . .I have something I want to do. . .

The three other Militia members look at Fudge. . .

Fudge : Now I know, that we have a new addition to out army but I have to say something, so Sett stand up

Sett gets up almost unwillingly. . .

Sett : Yeah Fudge?

Fudge : Now don’t think I have any big time beef with you man, seriously don’t, because it aint you I got beef with its that punk Conner who just returned

Sett : I know that man

Fudge : Good. However Sett your now holding something, that at Bloodlines I wanted to capture, your holding the International Title. . .

Sett : Yeah. I know

Fudge : I am so glad you know Sett because I want you to know this

Sett tilts his head, as Fudge drops his crutches and slowly limps heavily over to Sett, and gets right in Setts face, who has his title draped over his shoulder, the Militia looks as tense as we have ever sen them at least. . .

Fudge : Sett. At our next Pay Per View, I am challenging you to a HWA International Title match

Michael Diamond and Ryan Maxem get out of their seats. . .

Michael stands beside Fudge while Maxem stands beside Sett. . .

Fudge : Well Sett?

Maxem buts in. . .

Ryan Maxem : Now Now guys, calm down do we really have to go this fa---

Fudge straight cuts him off. . .

Fudge : YOU SHUT UP!

Ryan Maxem : Hey who you telling to shut up?

Fudge : This is between me and Sett, it goes back a while so step aside and let us talk

Maxem doesn’t move. . .

Fudge : Maxem, your stretching my LAST nerve. . .

Ryan Maxem : Whats your Point? Its not our fault that Ninja hurt you on Sunday, is it?

Fudge : Look I don’t care about Bloodlines, now you listen, if you don’t move aside and let us talk, I will walk out of that locker room door, and it is the last time The Militia will see me as their Team Mate, understood?

In fear of loosing one of his team mates Maxem steps aside, but doesn’t like the idea, Diamond also steps aside. . .

Fudge : Thank You

Sett : Do you have a problem with me?

Fudge : I told you, NO!

Sett : Then why?

Fudge gets right in Setts face now. . .

Fudge : Look Sett. ..Yes. . .or. . .No?

Fudge slaps his hand on Setts title and smirks in Setts face, a cocky smirk to say the least. . .

Maxem and Diamond jump back in. . .

Michael Diamond : WHOA! Fudge come on, I am getting you out of here, your losing it man

Fudge : Look Diamond, are you with me or against me on this?!

Michael looks shocked. . .

Ryan Maxem : Sett stay cool. . .

Diamond hands Fudge his crutches and helps Fudge out, Fudge steps backwards always with his eyes on Sett smirking that same cocky smile. . .

Fudge : I want my answer "Champ" I want it NEXT Week!

Diamond practically forces Fudge away as Sett and Maxem discuss what just happened

Erin Wallace vs. Summer (mudwrestling and kendo sticks)

The scene fades into backstage with Chris Million. He is watching SNS from his desk. Suddenly Erin Wallace bursts through the door, she is very angry. Chris Million shoots up from his desk.

Chris Million: Hello Erin, would you like to do an interview?

Erin Wallace: No, I would like to do this.

Erin slaps Chris Million across the face.

Chris Million: Now lets not be hasty, you know I never foreplay on a first date.

Erin Wallace: WHAT!? What the hell are you thinking putting me in a wrestling match? A match against some bimbo, I am not even a wrestler!

Chris Million: I am just giving the fans what they wanted. They want to see you against another girl in a mud wrestling match.

Erin Wallace: Why did Grimjack make you president any way? Chris Million: Because I can make matches like this, not to mention there are kendo sticks involved in this match.

Erin Wallace: Excuse me?

Chris Million: That’s right, there will be kendo sticks involved in this match, its really simple, all you have to do is hit your opponent with a kendo stick and pin them, it’s as simple as that. Oh and by the way, your match is next, good luck.

Erin Wallace screams and then leaves the office. The camera pans on Chris Million who seems to be laughing, he sits down and continues watching SNS. Erin Wallace vs. Summer

Trent Brown: You heard it here, a kendo stick mud wrestling match.

Keith Kincaid: God I would love to referee that match, so-so bad.

The HWA theme song plays and Erin Wallace walks out, the ref directs her to the side of the ramp where the pit is. She walks down into the stairs and steps into the pit. She is holding herself and looking around at the crowd. Suddenly Young Grow Old by Creed hits and comes out Summer. She walks to the side of the ramp and gets in the pit, she looks across and sees Erin Wallace who seems to be nervouse. On the out side of the pit are the kendo sticks. The ref sounds for the bell and the match starts. Erin and Summer lock up, Summer puts Erin in a head lock and holds it for about a minute before breaking it up. After Summer lets go, Erin spears Summer and they both go down in the mud.

KK: Oh my god, Trent this is the best match in HWA, ever!

TB: Erin starts pulling Summer’s hair and banging her head against the mud. Erin stands up and reaches the kendo stick on the side of the pit and picks it up. She hits Summer in the lower back, Summer screams in pain as Erin Wallace does it again, harder this time. Erin begins choking Summer with the Kendo stick.

KK: Ouch.

Erin and Summer both stand up, Summer open palms Erin in the face and Erin lets go of the Kendo stick and falls to the ground. Summer picks up Erin and clotheslines her back to the ground. Summer picks up the Kendo Stick and hits her in the ass several times. She then bulldogs Erin and goes for a pin. One…Two…Th-Kick out! Summer continues to smash Erin with the Kendo Stick. Summer looks on the stage, he thinks then climbs out of the pit and onto the stage. She climbs on the side of the stage next to the mud pit and awaits Erin to get up. Erin gets up and Summer jumps down and connects with the head shot with the Kendo Stick.

TB: Erin just got clocked with the Kendo Stick. Summer goes for the pin. One…Two…KICKOUT! OH MY GOD SHE KICKED OUT!

KK: Ouch.

TB: Say something else other than ouch.

KK: Damn. Let’s hope she’s okay.

TB: She kicked out didn’t she?

Summer kicks Erin and hits the Attitude Adjuster. She goes for the cover. 1…2…3! DING DING. Young Grow Old by Creed hits.

TB: OH MY GOD SUMMER JUST LANDED THE ATTITUDE ADJUSTER MADE FAMOUD BY ADA HIMSELF! OH MY GOD!

Grimjack is seen in his office with the young man who attacked Nick Fury.

Grimjack: So you call yourself Rage? Well I’ll give you a chance to prove yourself, next week you can take on Fury.

The young man named Rage walks out of the office looking happy.

Cara Starr vs. Michael Diamond

“Points Of Authority” Reanimation Remix by Linkin Park hits the sound system as the fans rise to their feet for “Your Hero” Michael Diamond. Pyros shoot up and out comes Michael Diamond, running down to the ring and sliding under the bottom rope. He climbs up one turnbuckle and appeals to the crowd. They cheer him on in response. His music fades out as he tests the ropes, waiting for his opponent, Cassandra Starr.

TB: This match could turn out to be fairly violent. It’s no DQ match, pitting Michael Diamond against his ex-girlfriend Cassandra Starr.

KK: And Cass can get fairly violent when she needs to.

TB: That she can, Keith, but the question is…where is she?

Alas, Cassandra Starr has not entered the ring yet. There seems to be no sign of her, until she sneaks into the ring behind Michael, a chair in hand, and smacks him over the head with it. The bell rings after this action.

TB: And here we start the match with a surprise attack by Cassandra.

Michael falls to the ground, and Cassandra rears the chair back for another blow. As she brings the chair down, aiming for Michael’s head, though, Michael rolls away in the nick of time. The chair hits the mat and bounces up, almost hitting Cassandra in the face on the return, but for Cassandra stopping it. Diamond then got up and dropkicked the chair into her face, making her fall. Diamond then kicked the chair away and jumped into an elbow drop to Cassandra’s midsection. Diamond then got up and applied a leg lock to Cassandra, but she squirmed her way to the ropes and grabbed one, and the ref called for a rope break.

TB: Diamond went for the early submission victory, but Cassandra got to the ropes.

KK: Good, the match isn’t over; I get to see more of Cassandra!

Diamond breaks the hold, and gets up to his feet. Cassandra rolls out of the ring to regroup. Diamond leans against the turnbuckle and waits for Cassandra. Eventually, she popped up behind Michael and grabbed his ankles and pulled, tripping him up. She then spread his legs and pulled him back, crotching him on the turnbuckle. Diamond yells out in pain as Cassandra grabs a kendo stick from under the ring and slides back into the ring.

KK: Hey! That’s for the mud-wrestling match!

TB: Oh well, she can put it back…I guess.

Cassandra rears back and hits Diamond over the back with the Kendo stick once, twice, three times. Michael rolls over to his back, squirming around in pain. Cassandra rears back for one last hit, but Michael sweeps up her feet with a kick, dropping her to the ground. He then jumps up to his feet and climbs to the turnbuckle and waits. Cassandra gets to her feet, facing away from Michael. She slowly turns around, not seeing him at first, only to get two feet planted into her face, compliments of Diamond. They both fall to the ground. Michael gets to his feet and waits for Cassandra to do so as well. Diamond picks Cass back up and does a small belly-to-belly suplex, and she lands in the middle of the ring. Diamond gets up immediately and rushes over to the turnbuckle. He jumps to the top and looks around at the crowd. The crowd is behind Diamond entirely, and begins to cheer louder then ever. Mike raises his hands up “raises the roof” and does a huge shooting star press and hits it. Diamond is on the ground for a moment, and Cass isn’t moving. Diamond picks her up again, and begins taunting her, as she is dazed. Mike turns around at taunts the crowd. Mike feels a tap on his shoulder, and he turns around and is immediately kicked in the jewels.

KK: What the hell was that, that isn’t legal, damn women always have the advantage in the matches and this is why.

Diamond falls to his knees and Cass tries to take the advantage. She looks Michael dead in the eyes, and then lies a vicious looking slap across the face of Diamond. Diamond seems not to be stunned at all, and he gets up and gets in her face. He pushes her back and she stumbles against the ropes. She bounces back and Diamond connects with a huge clothesline. Cass is down, and isn’t moving again. Michael picks her up, and waves his finger in her face; he then picks her up for a suplex, but instead hits a brain buster. Cass now holds her head, and Michael taunts for his finisher. He runs to the ropes and calls for the Prism. He jumps off and connects. Cass is out for the count, as Diamond rolls her up the ref counts. 1..2….3.

KK: This match is over and Cass was just pinned by Diamond.

Michael rolls Cass out of the ring, and holds his Tag Belt high. He rolls out of the ring shortly after winning. As he walks up the ramp way Cass runs up behind him with a steal chair. Diamond is down, and Cass begins swearing at Diamond and yelling to him. She finishes her profanity and walks up the rest of the ramp way. As Cass is walking up the ramp Awesome D Anderson walks by her. She looks at him but he doesn’t even pay her attention, she shrugs and keeps going. Anderson comes to Diamond and picks him up and delivers an Attitude Adjuster powerbomb. Then he walks back up the ramp looking pissed and getting booed.

TB: I don’t understand why Anderson did that. There was no apparent reason for that powerbomb.

Conner vs. Sett (Hour in a Cell part II)

TB: This is going to be brutal. You know I really wish Grimjack would stop signing these types of matches. Before long someone will be seriously injured. The ratings have gone up a little since Grimjack took over but if someone does get hurt he’s going to find himself drowning in lawsuits.

KK: Trent sometimes you’re such a pussy. These guys knew what the HWA was about when they signed up. And besides, Conner asked for this himself and Sett agreed so they know the consequences. These two men have unfinished business left over from the first Hour in a Cell and it’s going to take another hour to finish them. Look at that Cell being lowered, it’s a beautiful thing. Kind of reminds me of last week, but this time there’s just one cell. Better than none though!

"One of a Kind" by Breaking Point hits and the crowd starts to boo as Conner walks out. As he walks to the ring he gets a mic.

Conner: Oh shut up you fools, you know you love me. Deep down you know it.

Conner gets into the cell through a door. Suddenly "The Way" by Amorphis hits and the crowd pops for the fan favorite Sett. Perhaps the most well liked man in the HWA walks down the ramp holding the glistening International title that so many men covet. He leaves it at the announcer’s table as he walks by and gets in the cell.

KK: Wow Sett has given us the honor of watching this title for him.

TB: He’s probably wary of the masked man who likes to steal belts. I wouldn’t try to stop him though. This is a fine looking piece of workmanship here, look at the gold insignia. So much history sitting right here Keith.

The ref checks both men and signals for the bell to be wrung and the clock to start. The match begins as the crowd is going crazy for this pay per view caliber match. Conner and Sett look face to face, Sett is much taller. Conner puts his hand out to shake, Sett knows this trick and refuses. Instead he slaps Conner across the face and laughs. Conner gets to mad and starts kicking Sett up against the ropes and cage. He’s laying big side kicks and spin kicks and Sett’s doing his best to block the assault but Conner is faster. Sett starts throwing blind punches but Conner is able to side step and avoid. Conner rolls out of the way. Sett starts rushing Conner but Conner runs away. Conner starts running up the side of the cage and bounces off and catches Sett flush in the jaw with a side kick knocking the big man down.

KK: Conner has the perfect game plan for beating this big man. He already has him on the ropes and it’s only a few minutes into the match.

It continues on like this for about fifteen minutes, with Conner avoiding Sett and catching him with kicks when ever Sett lets down his guard. Sett is appearing to tire from chasing Conner around. Sett is holding his knees in the corner trying to catch his breath and Conner is walking back and forth like Darth Maul did in Episode one when he waited for Qui Gon Jin to open the force field. The crowd is starting to chant Sett’s name. He uses the chants to give him energy and charges Conner once again. Conner catches him with a drop toehold. Conner gets up, bounces off the ropes and hits Sett with a low drop kick to the face. Conner goes for a cover but Sett manages to kick out at the last second. Conner argues with the ref briefly before continuing his attack with hard kicks to Sett who doesn’t seem to have the energy to get up.

TB: I think Sett might still be feeling the effects of the Three Steps to Heaven match last week not to mention the attack Conner gave him after the match. Meanwhile Conner hasn’t had a match in months, he’s fresh as a daisy.

KK: Bull. Sett’s just an overweight weight couch potato.

TB: Yeah, right, that’s how he dominated at Three Steps to Heaven. He just has to catch Conner and it’d be over, and you know it Keith.

Sett is lying in the middle of the ring dazed. Conner decides to go to the top turnbuckle. As he stands there the crowd is booing him and starting tot throw garbage against the cage. Conner looks back at the crowd and gives them the finger but this makes him lose his concentration and he starts to stumble, but is able to still jump off the turnbuckle, but he doesn’t jump as far. He was going for his usual frog splash but he hits his head into Sett’s knee instead. Sett holds his knee in pain but Conner seems to have taken the brunt of it and is not moving.

KK: I think Conner may have gotten a concussion from that.

Sett puts his arm over Conner and goes for a pin but Conner puts his shoulder up at 2. The two men just lie there for a few minutes as the crowd yells at them.

TB: This match is slowing down but I think this will benefit Sett in the long run. He was getting very tired there but now he has a chance to stop and catch his breath as Conner is dazed.

KK: But there is still another half hour to go in this match and Conner has barely taken any damage besides that botched frog splash. He should persevere in the long run despite that unfortunate incident. Idiot fans throwing garbage. They should be barred from ringside.

TB: That’s just what Conner gets for riling up the crowd.

Slowly both men get to their feet. Conner is moving slower than he was before and Sett grabs him in a bear hug. Conner is in agony as Sett squeezes harder. Then Sett starts to throw Conner up against the cage like he did to Craven last week. Once again the cage starts to break and finally Sett throws Conner so hard up against the cage that he flies right out of it and lands against the anouncer’s table.

TB: Geez Conner watch out! Me and Keith aren’t a part of this match.

Sett follows Conner out. He grabs Conner by the throat as if to tchokeslam him, but with one hand Conner manages to grab the International title that was sitting on the table and bashes Sett in the face with it making him let go. Sett stumbles backwards and Conner recovers, Sett starts charging Conner again but Conner catches him with the belt again and Sett falls down. Conner still has the belt and is bashing Sett over the head with it. The ref tries to take it away but Conner pushes him aside. As Conner argues with the ref Sett gets up and grabs the belt from him, he tells Conner this is his and slams it up against Conner’s head drawing blood and making Conner’s left eye swell. Conner falls backwards against the guard rail. Sett walks over to Conner and is about to begin a serious attack because he finally has Conner on the ropes but suddenly a hears a kid in the audience yelling his name, he turns and sees that it’s a young punk named Brian.

Brian: Sett! Sett!! Sett!!! You rule! Fucking hell yeah!

Sett tries to ignore him but the kid is too obnoxious. He turns and starts to yell at the kid telling him to watch his mouth as the crowd boos at Brian. Conner sees this and grabs the International title belt and before Sett can stop him Conner scurries up the top of the cage. Conner stands atop the cage and someone tosses him a mic, he starts talking as he holds the belt.

Conner: Hey Sett! Do you remember this? Last week I beat your ass on top of one of these things, and gave you the Soul Searcher on this belt. Why don’t you get your ass back up here for more of the same? Unless if you’re chicken.

Sett thinks about it and he ignores Brian’s heckling and starts to climb the cage.

TB: This can’t be good.

KK: Yeah it can! Trent you’re such a pussy! Tell me you didn’t think last week’s Three Steps to Heaven was exciting!

TB: I’ll admit it was exciting but frightening as well. I don’t see why these men would want to risk their lives like this. I’m a purist I want to see arm drags and suplexs, not this crap. The ref has clearly lost control of this match. Why would Sett want to go up there?

KK: It’s about pride Trent, you wouldn’t know because you don’t have none.

Sett gets up to the top and Conner stats kicking him in the head as the crowd boos. Sett grabs Conner’s leg and pushes him down. Conner rolls away and both men are standing atop the hell in the cell.

KK: This is great, neither man has scored a point in this iron man match and there is twenty minutes left. But they’re both standing atop the cage so I believe that a fall is imminent. Both men start to circle around each other and finally Sett goes to grab Conner but Conner steps back and kick Sett in his knee. Conner starts kicking Sett and he catches Sett with a spin kick right in the eye. Sett falls down to the cage holding his eye as blood squirts out.

TB: This is what I’m talking about Keith. This isn’t a wrestling match, it’s disgusting. Sett may have lost permanent eye sight in his left eye from that shot. This match needs to be stopped.

Sett is holding his eye while he blindly lashes out with his other hand, he gets lucky and catches Conner with a backhand across the face. Conner slowly stumbles backwards, he reaches the edge of the cage and he almost falls off. Conner sways back and forth on his heels a few times as the crowd holds it’s breath. Sett looking up from the blood caking his face sees Conner’s predicament and rushes him yet again.

TB: God no!!! Not again! They’re going to crash through our announce table! Move Keith!

Sett goes for a clothesline and it connects sending both men off the cage into the air. In midair Conner is able to grab Sett’s arm and with it drives Sett’s head down and as they crash through the announce table and Conner turns it into the downward spiral, aka the Soul Searcher.

TB: My god Keith did you see that! Conner just gave Sett a Soul Searcher off the top of the cage through our table! I don’t think that’s ever been done!

KK: This means that once again we have to stand. But that was a hell of a move.

The crowd is chanting holy shit as the slow motion replay on the HWAtron shows just how Conner reversed the clothesline. Sett is just totally devastated but Conner is as well, and neither man moves for about five minutes as the move was so devastating. The problem was that Sett was on his back and Conner couldn’t pin him like that of course, and he didn’t have the strength to turn the huge man’s body over. Finally Conner is able to muster the strength to push him over and reach his hand over and put it over Sett’s chest, the ref is right on top of it and he makes the count, 1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . . Sett put his shoulder up but it was a split second late.

KK: Conner is able to get the first fall of the match and this is fifty minutes in.

These men are so evenly matched but this is shocking to me. Fifty minutes!

Both men are starting to get up. Conner is very weary and Sett looks at him with blood all over his face and chest and this scares even the crowd who loves Sett. He looks like he’s possessed with anger as he looks at Conner. Conner starts to back away and he slips and falls on the International title which fell off the cage. Sett comes over to Conner, picks him up and delivers a huge chokeslam on the hard concrete.

TB: Wow that’s the Endgame!

Sett drops down and hooks Conner’s leg roughly and goes for a pin, the ref counts, 1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . .

KK: Sett with a fall, it’s now 1 to 1 folks.

Sett looks down at Conner who still doesn’t seem to be moving after that Endgame, he decides to go for another pin which is legal since Conner’s not getting up. He does but Conner kicks out at 2. Sett looks surprised but he’s still running on instinct, the true Sett that is impossible, covered in blood and in a bezerker rage. He forgets what the match was about and just starts to beat on Conner. He mounts him and starts punching him in the head, wanting to make Conner look bloody like him. Before long Conner’s face is covered in blood and he looks unrecognizable.

TB: What is going on here? This must be the most bloody match in HWA history.

Sett gets up and he is crawling away. He gets to the door of the cage and starts to get back in. Sett just slowly walks after him with hate in his eyes. He follows Conner back into the cage and there is now five minutes left in the match. Sett grabs Conner’s head and slams it into the mat. Sett covers Conner but Conner kicks out. Conner starts to crawl away again. Sett grabs his leg and swings him around and throws him against the cage hard. Conner’s body is just a broken and bleeding mess at this point.

TB: How is Conner taking this abuse?

Sett picks Conner up and gives him the sit down powerbomb, the Journey. He stays and covers Conner, 1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . . Sett gets another point.

TB: Now Sett is winning 2 to 1. I think this must be finished and we have three minutes left.

KK: Come on Conner you’ve made it this far.

TB: I don’t think he has anything left at all Keith. Look at him, he’s not even moving . . . wait!

Sett had stood back up and looked at the ref unsure what to do next. His bezerker rage was residing and he realized he was close to winning the match and he could go and rest. Sett just leans up against the ropes trying to rest when he sees that Conner is crawling over to him. Conner pulls him self to Sett’s legs and Sett is just looking down at him. Conner uses Sett to help him get up and he looks up at Sett through bloody eyes.

KK: Conner just doesn’t know how to quit.

TB: He’s actually showing a lot of courage but I don’t think he has anything left really.

Sett looks Conner in the eye and remembers again what Conner did to him last week and shows no mercy. He grabs Conner by the throat and delivers a massive chokeslam right into the mat. Conner is completely out cold. Sett just walks away in anger as there is still a minute and a half in the match.

TB: It looks like this match is over, even though there is still a little time it looks like the referee is going to call it so Conner can get some medical attention. I’m glad, this is possibly the most brutal match I’ve ever witnessed. Look at Sett walking up the ramp, he’s covered in blood and he doesn’t seem to care.

KK: I would say that this isn’t fair and the ref should count Sett out for walking away but for once I agree with you Trent, this match had to be stopped.

The show cuts to a commercial as EMTs take Conner out on a stretcher.

The camera stands outside the Militia's locker room. Suddenly, Fudge is tossed through the door, out cold. "Awesome D" Anderson walks out of the locker room, anger in his eyes, and stands over the fallen Tag Champion. He walks off without a word

The scene opens up in Grimjack’s office where he appears to be talking to someone in the corner but you can’t see who it is.

Voice: That wasn’t cool what you pulled tonight Grim. You stuck your nose where it didn’t belong.

Grimjack: Hey calm down man. Don’t worry about it. Besides, I’ve been thinking, we should form an alliance you know? You could be my henchman, my right hand man. I need someone to watch my back.

Voice: I’m listening.

Grimjack: I have a feeling someone is going to be showing up tonight, someone who I don’t like. You could help me take care of this person. I’d make it worth your while.

The scene opens back up at ringside where Keith and Trent are talking.

TB: Looks like Grimjack has something up his sleeve. I wonder who he was talking to just then.

KK: I also wonder what it was he was going to announce earlier tonight before Anderson interrupted him. Well anyway now it’s time for a blockbuster match. These two were bound to meet at some point because they’re two powerful forces in the HWA.

TB: Doesn’t surprise me that two belts are on the line in their first match, it just seems fitting.

Strange Oriental music plays and Unknown Ninja walks out to boos. He doesn’t even acknowledge the crowd, he just walks to the ring as if he forgot something. He seems to be talking to himself. "Circles" by Incubus hits and the crowd cheers as the World Champion Ryan Maxem walks out sans belt.

TB: The world champion just doesn’t look right without the belt. I hope he gets it back soon.

Maxem vs Unknown Ninja (World and X-treme titles)

Maxem gets in the ring and they start the match. Maxem tries to use powerful moves on Ninja but Ninja stays far away and catches Maxem with kicks.

KK: This looks familiar. These guys must have been watching the last match.

Maxem catches Ninja’s leg on a kick but Ninja gives him an enziguri. Maxem rolls with the impact and when Ninja goes to grab him Maxem turns his arms around his back with his strength and delivers a german suplex on Ninja.

TB: Maxem showing good technical skills for being a big man.

Ninja gets up immediately and goes for a super kick but Maxem moves his head just in time and it comes within inches. He catches Ninja’s leg and picks him up with it and delivers an inverted powerbomb. Maxem bounces off the ropes and goes for a high knee drop but Ninja rolls out of the way. Ninja bounces up. Maxem swings at him for a punch but Ninja catches it and turns it into a pump handle slam. It takes all of Ninja’s strength to lift the bigger man.

TB: Wow that was impressive.

Ninja goes to pick up Maxem but Maxem catches him with a punch to the stomach. Maxem gets up and starts punching Ninja but Ninja blocks each one with fast reflexes. Then Maxem punches him so hard that even though Ninja blocks it he falls over anyway because of the force. Maxem starts to kick Ninja while he’s down when suddenly Mr. Giles and the masked man come out with the HWA World Title. Maxem sees this and get distracted allowing Ninja to take him down with a leg sweep. Mr. Giles pulls up a chair and the masked man sits down next to ringside much like he did during the World Title match at Bloodlines.

TB: What the hell are these two doing here? They have no right to be here!

Ninja picks Maxem up and irish whips him into the turnbuckle. He puts Maxem up on the turnbuckle and the crowd starts booing. Maxem fights back but Ninja hits him with a jumping spin kick to the chin dazing him. Ninja gets up on the turnbuckle and turns Maxem around and goes for the Omega 10. Maxem is too heavy to lift at first though and suddenly Maxem hip tosses Ninja over his head back down onto the mat. Maxem looks at the masked man holding his belt and gives him the finger to the crowd’s amusement, then he jumps off the turnbuckle going for an elbow drop on Ninja but Ninja rolls away and he misses. Ninja gets up and hits Maxem with a stiff kick to the head that makes a loud thwack that can be heard throughout the arena. Ninja, always being aware of his surroundings, looks over at the masked man sitting there. Maxem gets up and rushes Ninja going for a spear but Ninja sees this in his vision and jumps out of the way and Maxem misses and slides out of the ring. Maxen grabs a chair.

TB: Can he do that?

KK: Well technically this is an X-treme match, I don’t really know the rules for that title but I think hardcore rules apply, although Grimjack never really specified the rules for this match.

Maxem gets on the apron but Ninja runs over and superkicks the chair into his face sending Maxem into the guardrail.

TB: The ref’s not doing anything about it so I guess it goes.

Ninja jumps on the ropes and spring boards off onto Maxem with a backflip. Ninja picks up Maxem and puts him on his shoulder for a DVD but Maxem rolls off and rams Ninja’s head into the railing. Ninja stumbles away and gets back in the ring and Maxem follows. Maxem gives Ninja a big boot. Maxem tries to kick Ninja but Ninja catches his foot and twists it. Maxem goes down, his leg still feeling bad from last week. Ninja goes for a hurricuranna but Maxem catches him, Ninja jumps off and lands on his feet, Maxem grabs him by the head, lifts him up and high in the air and drops him back down with a spinning reverse brainbuster.

TB: Whoa the Technical Difficulties out of nowhere.

Maxem covers Ninja and is able to get the three count

TB: Maxem is able to keep his World Championship and pick up the X-treme title too. These two guys just gave it their all for these two titles.

KK: Yeah but look who just jumped in the ring.

The masked man jumps on the apron and climbs over the top rope into the ring. Maxem charges the masked man knocking him into the corner. Maxem starts kicking the masked man who fights his way out with right hands. Maxem is reeling and the masked man whips him into the ropes. Maxem bounces back and gets caught with a boot to the face. Maxem realizes he just got lit up and slides out under the bottom rope. Maxem is yelling at the masked man who still has the World Title in the ring with him. Suddenly Grimjack and Hartman come running down the ramp with chairs and slide into the ring. The masked man stands back as Grimjack has a chair in one hand and a mic in the other.

Grimjack: That's it, you want to come in here and take over, well last week you caught me off guard, earlier tonight you caught me off guard. But right now, right now I am ready. And I have backup.

Suddenly Mr. Giles catches Grimjack in the back of the head with a chair of his own. The masked man reaches down and picks up the HWA World Title and puts it over his shoulder. Hartman hits the masked man with the chair but it isn’t enough to stop him. He grabs the chair from Hartman and gives him a chokeslam. Suddenly Unknown Ninja gets up and he faces the masked man. Giles swings the chair but somehow Ninja knows it’s coming and he ducks it and kicks Giles in the head. Ninja and the masked man start trading punches and Ryan Maxem starts to help Ninja as the get the masked man in the corner and start working him over. Meanwhile Grimjack rolls out of the ring and watches.

KK: Maxem and Ninja working together what is going on here?

Suddenly another masked man, this one even bigger than the first runs through the crowd, gets in the ring and goes after Unknown Ninja.

KK: What the hell? Another one?

The new masked man gives Ninja a massive chokeslam. Then the first masked man gives Maxem a chokeslam of his own. Then the two masked men face each other and look each other up and down.

TB: What is going to happen? Are these two a team?

Suddenly the two masked men start fighting each other with lefts and rights, just totally going after each other as the crowd is going nuts.

KK: I’ve lost track of what’s going on!

Suddenly Michael Diamond comes running down the ramp with a chair and gets in the ring and goes after the first masked man, who flees with Randy Giles and the World title belt up the ramp. The second masked man escapes into the crowd as Diamond chases the first masked man away. Maxem and Ninja are starting to get up when suddenly Anderson comes running down the aisle.

Trent Brown: What the hell? Hasn't he caused enough trouble tonight?

Keith Kincaid: Not yet. He's pulling Maxem up to his feet. Now he's just laying into Maxem with right hands and boots.

Trent Brown: All of this carnage just because he lost the title? Oh god, now he has a chair! Maxem is out of it. Ninja gets to his feet, but Anderson throws him out of the ring. Now, ADA is nailing Maxem across the back with the chair. Somebody stop this!

Kevin Conner comes running down the ramp and Grimjack gets in the ring.

Keith Kincaid: Here comes Kevin Conner and Grimjack! Are they going to stop Anderson?

Trent Brown: Anderson stares down Grim and Conner. Grim and Conner start stomping on Maxem! This is carnage! Wait, Anderson stops Conner from attacking Maxem.

"Awesome D" Anderson: Just what in the hell do you think you're doing?

Kevin Conner: I'm joining the Legacy Department!

Trent Brown: Kevin Conner is joining the Legacy Department?

Keith Kincaid: Anderson and Conner have a long history of not getting along. Conner resumes the beating on Maxem. ANDERSON NAILS CONNER WITH THE CHAIR! What the hell is going on?! Grim gets between Anderson and the prone Conner. Anderson is leaving, having left behind two more unconscious victims. What is else can happen before Anderson gets his rematch?

TB: I don’t know man.

KK: What a show, what a man. I can't wait to see how this thing will pan out.

TB: Wait a minute we not have to wait until next week.

Grimjack gets up into the ring and picks up a chair and unfolds it. He looks around at the prone bodies of Maxem, Ninja, Hartman, and Conner then gets a mic tossed to him.

Grimjack: Well it looks like some people think they can make a mockery of my show. I’m getting sick of it. First of all I don’t like how the Militia is getting powerful. Now they hold all the belts and that’s not good. So I watched in interest as seeds of doubt were planted by Fudge tonight. In the interest of breaking them up we’ll have Maxem and Sett versus Fudge and Diamond next week for the tag titles. Also this thing with the masked man is getting ridiculous. I want him to reveal himself or else. I want the masked man to take on Unknown Ninja next week, and I don’t care which one of them shows up either because it looks like there are two, which is ridiculous. The one that attacked Ninja can show up if he dares. Also I will make a big announcement: HWA is going global. Next week Survival takes place in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. The next week Survival is in Tokyo, Japan. And then finally our next pay per view Jam will be in Mexico City. If any wrestler has a problem with going on the world tour they can consider themselves fired.

TB: Good night everybody see you next week on Survival, I guess in Brazil.

KK: Great a vacation!
