The show opens to the loud cheering fans in attendance here at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada!
Harley Meisner: Hello everybody and welcome to Friday Night Thunder!
George Sullivan: And we’ve got one hell of a show lined up for tonight!
Sara Butler: I couldn’t have said it any better George! Let’s get this party started for these amazing Canadian fans and for everyone around the world watching from the comfort of their homes!
Harley Meisner: I couldn’t agree more, and kicking off the show tonight is Skillet Riley who is already in the ring!
____________________________________________________________
Inside the ring, we see Skillet Riley standing there in the center with a microphone. He is out here to clear some things up.
Skillet Riley: I just want to come out here and make it clear that I am very sad to hear about Darren Maddox having to go to war against cancer. He has made it very clear that he hates me, but that doesn't mean that I'm happy he's suffering like this.
Skillet Riley: I want you all to know that I've gone to Darren personally and told him face to face that I'm sorry for going through with the match he and I had. I had no idea he had cancer while fighting in our match, but had I known, I would not have even shown up for it. The last thing I would do is beat up on someone who's dealing with a health condition like that.
Skillet Riley: But let me just say---
Suddenly the theme music for Bulletproof Club hits the arena, interrupting Skillet. We now see the members of Bulletproof Club slowly coming on the stage, and now they are coming down the ramp.
Skillet is watching them as they are now surrounding all sides of the ring.
George Sullivan: Oh no... Bulletproof Club has Skillet blocked at all sides!
Sara Butler: Whatever their intention is, I'm sure it's not good for Skillet. He's trapped in that ring now!
While Bulletproof Club have surrounded the ring by trapping Skillet, James Walker stares at Skillet with a smirk on his face the taunt with Bullet Club finger guns while the fans join in with James Walker as he signals the assault. Andrew and John start attacking Skillet While James Walker is watching.
Harley Meisner: Why is James Walker doing this?
George Sullivan: James Walker is a friend of Darren Maddox and he respects Darren! Maybe it had to do with being friends with Maverick with Darren’s permission or Darren’s respect?
Sara Butler: Well James Walker did once before. Darren hated him long ago.
While Skillet is already beaten up badly, James Walker picks up Skillet to stand him up then patted him on Skillet’s head for comfort but James Walker ripped Skillet’s shirt to hit knife edge chop with power that sends Skillet down on his knees while his chest is red.
James Walker stands him up again while John and Andrew standing behind Skillet, then James Walker taunts him by pointing on Skillet’s head with the gun execution by nudging him to turn around. John and Andrew hits the bullet drop tag team finisher that knocked Skillet out cold! Andrew ripped the shirt off from Skillet’s back while James Walker asked for a microphone.
Harley Meisner: James Walker has requested a microphone as he is going to speak!
James Walker: Well Skillet, this is not over for you at all. I remember that I made a friend with Maverick before you came here to ICW. Long ago Darren and I were at war for a world title shot. I’m the great friend of Maverick, Darren got pissed off at me for being a friend with his son as I didn’t get his permission or respect. The Bulletproof Club respects Darren, he and I have fought wars together and a little lesson for you, don’t become someone’s kid's friend without permission from their parents who is Darren Maddox! As for now, I have an announcement to make as we have a giant new member for Bulletproof Club! And now please welcome the newest member of Bulletproof Club!
Mutombo’s music theme hits, then he shows up wearing the Bulletproof Club shirt. He walks down the ramp and gets on the ring by going over the ropes to look down to Skillet.
George Sullivan: Mutombo is the newest member of Bulletproof Club, holy shit! The former member of Inner Pinnacle has joined forces with James, Andrew and John!
Sara Butler: Bulletproof Club now has a giant enforcer in their army!
James Walker: Welcome to the Bulletproof Club big man, but you’re on trial to earn your spot to join us. You want to be a member of our faction, then deal with this man as you will be with us and earn Darren Maddox’s forgiveness and respect.
Mutombo picks up Skillet then turns him around to face himself and finishes him off with Jackknife Chokeslam! Mutombo received the microphone from James Walker as he was going to talk.
Harley Meisner: Poor Skillet. I bet Darren Maddox is smiling now!
Mutombo: Skillet, you are facing the Ugandan Monster one on one in a NO HOLDS BARRED match at Hellfire PPV! It’s already sanctioned and it's time to face the monster and you can’t back out now!
Mutombo dropped the microphone while James Walker orders his fellow members of Bulletproof Club to pick Skillet up, then James Walker speared him in half! James Walker, Andrew, John and Mutombo stand next to Skillet’s lifeless body and taunts too sweet, then leaves the ring.
George Sullivan: Skillet is facing the Ugandan Monster Mutombo at Hellfire PPV and it’s already sanctioned! Also James Walker said that if Mutombo wants to be the newest member for Bulletproof Club and earn Darren’s forgiveness and respect, he has to beat Skillet in a No Holds Barred match!

Knight Blaze vs Jenn Makarios-Lopez
(The bell rings as Knight Blaze and Jenn circle each other, and Blaze gets the upper hand in the early part of the match. He throws Jenn into the corner and charges toward her, but she leaps out of the way and he goes chest first into the turnbuckle. Jenn rolls up Blaze for a surprise pin attempt!)
1……
2……
(Blaze kicks out at the count of 2, and he looks at Jenn with a surprised look on his face. Wondering how she outsmarted him like that. Both competitors get up, Blaze quickly goes on the offense by hitting a side headlock on Jenn and flipping her to the ground, she has the hold tightly on her but she starts start to fight out.)
George Sullivan: Blaze doesn’t want to let go of that hold.
Harley Meisner: Do you blame him? He knows if Jenn gets up on her feet, bad things will happen. So he’s trying to keep her grounded for as long as possible.
Sara Butler: This is the smart thing to do, but we know once Jenn gets up on her feet again, he’s in trouble.
(Blaze as the hold locked in but Jenn starts to wiggle herself free, and becomes free from the hold. She’s had enough of Blaze’s antics as the match moves forward and quickly shuts down any offense he tries to do at the moment. Jenn throws Blaze shoulder first into the ring post, and she does it again! After doing it twice, she starts to work on that arm she threw into the ring post.)
George Sullivan: She’s starting to get aggressive here and that’s a bad sign for Blaze!
Harley Meisner: Can you blame her? She wants a world title opportunity and she keeps being overlooked, I’d be angry too.
(After working on his arm, she kicks him out of the ring to the arena floor below. Jenn follows him to the outside, but Blaze doesn’t quit fighting. As they fight on the outside floor with the ref counting, Blaze gains control for the moment as he throws her over the barricade into the crowd! He dives back into the ring.)
George Sullivan: This would be a cheap victory if the ref gets to 10.
Harley Meisner: It’s a smart move, he was getting dominated, and getting rid of her is great.
(The count continues to count and gets to the count of 8 as Jenn flips herself back over the barricade, she makes a rush for it and dives into the ring at the count of 9. Blaze is right there and jumps on her as she comes in. and tries to pin her.)
1….
(But she powers out. Blaze shakes his head in disbelief before he tries to go after her again but she fights back. She kicks him in the lower stomach and grabs onto him in a vice grip and wraps her arms around his neck. He fights back but the grip she has on him makes him quickly fades but when he does, she lets go, and hits her finisher on him.)
1……
2……
3!
George Sullivan: She dominated Blaze here.
Harley Meisner: He fought hard but she was just too much, too angry.
Sara Butler: I haven’t seen her this way in over a year, and this spells danger for anybody around her.
Winner: Jenn Makarios-Lopez

(On a video feed from earlier today, Lycra and Arianna McCarver are seen on the tron to provide an update on Darren Maddox's condition.)
Lycra: We first want to thank everyone for their thoughts of support during this time. The messages of caring and compassion for Darren has been overwhelming in such a positive way.
Arianna McCarver: With all the support you has give us, we very much appreciate. Is mean so much to Darren to see he is so love by ICW universe.
Lycra: We wanted to give an update on Darren because I know everyone wants to know where things are going at this point. The truth is, Darren's condition is no better. So far the treatments are not doing anything and there is no improvement. We knew this was going to be a big uphill battle and so far, it's not going the way we were hoping it would.
Arianna McCarver: For me personal, being Darren's mother, is hard for me to even think of lose me son. I no want it come to that and I pray that will no be what happen. Darren is in no good emotion state, he is frustrate over this. He want get better soon, but we know when come to cancer, we can no say when health get better. It take time. He has best medical team that direct every action. Is same team that help me overcome stomach cancer. We hope they can do same for Darren.
Lycra: But one thing we all know for certain is that Darren is a fighter. He's the strongest guy you'll ever meet. He is putting up the hardest battle that he possibly can against the cancer.
Lycra: For the time being, what we really need from all of you is for you to continue sending in the get well wishes and to continue sending in the messages of support and love on social media like you've been doing because that is what's keeping Darren going. It is really helping him to keep up the fight.
Arianna McCarver: Again, we thank all of you and God bless all of you.
Lycra: Thank you everyone so much.

Travis Deacon Hall vs Adam Gatner
The show returns from commercials with Adam and Travis already in the ring as the referee reminds the two men of the rules that were discussed back in the locker room area before asking for the bell to ring to start the match!
Adam and Travis stare at each other as the bell rings to start the match off. Travis and Adam lock up in a test of strength with Adam overpowering Travis backing him into the corner!
Travis begins fighting out of the corner just to get hit with a right hand that rocks Travis. Adam then gets in a three point stance and connects with the pounce, taking Travis down.
Harley Meisner: These two men are not afraid to destroy each other.
George Sullivan: Travis needs to get back into this match if he wants to win this match tonight.
Travis rolls out of the ring and catches a breather on the outside of the ring. Adam goes for a Spear but Travis moves out of the way causing Adam to crash and burn on the outside of the ring!
Travis throws Adam back into the ring and then slides back into the ring himself. Travis is waiting for Adam to get back up to his feet and then runs at Adam connecting with the Clothesline.
Travis then waits as he is tuning up the band as the crowd is getting behind Travis and then he goes for a Superkick, but Adam ducks and lifts up Travis connecting with a Powerbomb.
Harley Meisner: This match hasn't let down on the aggression since the opening bell.
George Sullivan: Travis was looking to end it early there but Adam saw it coming and turned it into a Powerbomb.
Adam then lifts Travis back up to his feet and applies a Bear Hug in the middle of the ring as he continues increasing the pressure on Travis. Travis doesn't look good as the pressure is increasing on his ribcage and lungs!

Malcolm Reed: Ridley, it is great to have you back. Everyone is waiting to see what your plans are with managing the newest addition to the roster, "The Japanese Powerhouse" Nakano!
Ridley: Oh Malcolm, it feels great to finally be back here! And I am so happy to be announcing right here right now, that Nakano will indeed be making her much anticipated ICW in ring debut next week on Carnage!
Malcolm Reed: We know very little about Nakano, but one thing we do know is that she dominated over in Japan?
Ridley: You're damn right she did! No one could stop her in the ring! And here in ICW, I see that being no different. I know this roster is just full of the toughest challengers and we have the best women wrestlers here in ICW. But, Nakano is by far one of a kind and she does not mess around. She is the most serious female wrestler you will ever face in that ring.
Ridley: I just cannot wait for her big debut next week! Everyone is gonna be blown away by her wrestling skill, her strength, and her power!
Ridley: Things are about to really heat up in the women's division, Malcolm! Really gonna heat up now!!
