(The show opens to inside the locker room of Women's Champion Nakano where we see her manager Ridley standing in front of Nakano angry as hell!)
Ridley: I can't get over what you did to Greta!! Bringing an urn with the name "Darren Maddox" on it to ringside while you did commentary during Greta's match???!!
Nakano: So what! Do you really think I care about hurting her feelings? If she can't handle the fact that her precious Darren Maddox friend is dead, that's not my problem!
Ridley: We don't know that he is! Nonetheless, that cruel stunt you pulled is the last straw for me! I'm done with you Nakano!
Nakano: Done with me?
Ridley: Yes! Done! Finished! Kaput!! You bad mouthing people and talking trash, I could tolerate that. I could get over that. It wasn't a big deal. But bringing an URN to ringside just to torture Greta, knowing how she feels about that man!! No, that's it!!
Ridley: As of right now, I am DONE being your manager! I mean it, Nakano! I can't associate myself with someone like you who has absolutely no problem being the cruellest person ever to walk the earth!!!
(And with that, Ridley storms out of the locker room! Nakano just scoffs and doesn't care that she no longer has Ridley.)
Nakano (talking to herself): Don't need you anyway. I will go on being the best on my own. No one can beat. No one.
(Nakano then leaves to head down to the ring for her match.)

Sara Butler: Nakano will look to make an example out of Maxine here tonight.

Paparazzi by Jim Johnston plays over the arena as Evan Rush leads his sister Maxine Rush out to the ring.

Nakano and Maxine lock up in a test of strength with Nakano easily overpowering Maxine and turning it into an Overhead Belly to Belly Suplex. Nakano continues to put the pressure on Maxine. Maxine scrambles to the ropes forcing Nakano to separate from her.
Maxine now springboards off the ropes and connects with the Sling Blade. Nakano quickly gets back up to her feet before Maxine could even get back up to her feet.
Maxine runs against the ropes but Nakano catches her and turns it into a Powerbomb. Maxine is struggling to get back up to her feet as Nakano just knocks her down with a combination of throat chops.
Harley Meisner: Nakano is making sure that Maxine never thinks to challenge for the championship as long as she's the champion.
Sara Butler: Nakano is going to have to do a lot more to deter Maxine from challenging again for the championship.
George Sullivan: Can Maxine get back into this match? Only time will tell.
Maxine is really feeling the pain from Nakano. Nakano woman-handles Maxine like she's a sack of potatoes and just flings her halfway across the ring. Nakano then signals for the end as she connects with the Nenbutsu Powerbomb and goes for the cover as the referee counts the three count!
Rick Henderson: The winner of this match and still Women's champion, NAKANO!!!
Harley Meisner: This match was a one sided fight as Maxine just couldn't get out of the starting gates.
Sara Butler: Nakano showed her utter dominance in the ring like she always does.
George Sullivan: Who will be the one to end Nakano's reign as the ICW Women's Champion? I really thought Maxine was going to be the one but she just couldn't get any real offense here tonight.
Maxine rolls out of the ring and heads back to the locker room area.
Nakano celebrates her win in the ring.
Nakano (yelling): NO ONE CAN BEAT ME!! NO ONE!!
The show cuts away to a video package for the next match.

Debut Match
Eddie Lopez Jr. vs The Crow
(The sound of crows are heard before What About Me? by Jim Johnston plays over the arena as the spotlight looks all over the arena and finally, The Crow is shown in the rafters looking down at the ring at his opponent before making his way down to the ring to fight his opponent.)
Rick Henderson: From Chicago, The Crow!
George Sullivan: The crow is looking to make an impact in this match with a debuting superstar.
Harley Meisner: I think Crow has an understanding of what this match is about and I think he’s going to do well with it.
Sara Butler: I don’t think this is a walk in the park like you want it to be, there’s a reason this new superstar has hype behind him.
(The lights dim to darkness, as “welcome to the circus” echoes in the arena as pyro fires up from the stage. Eddie Jr makes his way out from the back followed by his friend, Brooklyn Martinez. Both of them start to walk down the ramp, engaging with the fans before entering the ring. He stands up on the middle rope and raises his hand, pyro sprays around the lighting rig above the ring to the crowd’s cheers.)
George Sullivan: We know his family, from his dad to his aunts to his sister but now it’s his turn to make his own path in this business.
Harley Meisner: That’s true but you know everyone will compare him to his family, they’re doing that to his sister, and she’s the world champion!
Sara Butler: I’m sure if Gracie can make her own path, her brother can. All of that family is talented in their own ways, and I can’t wait to see what he’s like in person. I’ve seen tapes of him but it’s time.
(The bell rings as Crow and Eddie Jr circle around each other, Crow gets the early advantage on the younger Lopez by backing him back into the corner, before ramming his shoulder into his stomach. But Eddie Jr shows his fighting spirit and doesn’t back down and EJ starts fighting back with Crow. Crow tries to do anything he can to stop it.)
George Sullivan: I’ve heard good things about Eddie Jr, and I wanna see what he can do in this match.
Harley Meisner: I hope he loses. I don’t like him.
(As the match moves on from its starting point, both men are going back and forth in the ring trying to figure each other out as well. But EJ starts to control the match with his speed. The fans are starting to see what the hype about him is about. He’s nothing like his sister, he has more power but can he fly if he has too and he shows that while having control. The match spills to the outside of the ring and EJ throws Crow into the barricade. They stay on the outside until the ref gets to the count of 9, before EJ throws crow back in and slithers on him for a pin.)
1…….
2………
(Crow kicks out at the count of 2.)
George Sullivan: Eddie Jr is showing that he’s impressive, He’s gonna do his family name well.
Harley Meisner: He won’t be like his dad.
George Sullivan: How do you know? We’ve never seen his dad wrestle in THIS company.
Harley Meisner: I know that….
(Crow starts to fight back after the pin attempt and starts to swing the momentum back in his favor. Crow has EJ on the ropes for a moment with a pin.)
1……
2………..
(Crow looks a beat upset that EJ kicked out as he did but Crow stays on the attack. He throws EJ into the corner turnbuckle, and he goes for a running clothesline but EJ puts his foot up that blocks Crow’s advancements. Just like it has been the entire match, they go back and forth again, but EJ’s offense is stronger than Crow's at the moment, so EJ starts to take advantage again, and this time he has Crow grounded with a rest hold for a moment, but Crow fights out of it and they go back and forth again.)
George Sullivan: This match has some good back-and-forth action.
Harley Meisner: Yeah but Crow is controlling it though, he’s the ring vet in this match.
(EJ starts to overpower him and his strength starts to show more and more as the match moves on. Of course, Crow starts to fight back but with little to no effort. EJ has total control of this match now as he plans to end him. With a snap of a finger, EJ hits the Latino Heartbreak and is quickly followed by his dad’s finisher, or as he calls it the Family Tradition frog splash.)
1……
2…….
3!
Rick Henderson: The winner of this match....EDDIE LOPEZ JR!
George Sullivan: Big win by Eddie Lopez Jr. here!
Harley Meisner: I think Crow had his feet on the ropes.
(Eddie Lopez Jr starts to celebrate the win he got with the fans who are cheering for him.)

Jenn grabs Travis up by his pants and then chucks him back into the ring before getting back into the ring herself. As Jenn enters the ring, Travis springs up and starts stomping away as Jenn continues to get into the ring.

Sara Butler: Jenn will bounce back from this, just watch and see.
George Sullivan: Travis needs to think three moves ahead if he wants to beat Jenn and leave with the ICW Mayhem Championship.

The stage fills with white smoke as "Demi-Gods" By Lab-Rats and Slim J play over the PA system and as the white smoke fills the stage, TJ Alexander steps in the white smoke and kneels before leaping out of the white smoke and heads towards the ring, he climbs the turnbuckle from the apron poses for a few seconds and climbs in the ring and then back on the turnbuckle again to taunt the fans)
George Sullivan: TJ is looking to become the world champion here, and make history.
Harley Meisner: Yeah but he’s running into a buzzsaw with Gracie. Gracie hasn’t lost in this company since winning the world title, and it’s almost been a year! Gracie is looking to go to Wrestlecade as champion.
Sara Butler: That’ll be a tough task like you said, but Gracie also has everyone coming after her including her family so I think TJ may capitalize on that.
George Sullivan: The thing is does Gracie have ring rust? We haven’t seen her wrestle since January, and we’ve only seen her every now and again since then.
(After making everyone wait for a moment or 2, the lights go dim as flames shoot from the stage before a red light comes on showing a dark figure in front of it. “Unstoppable” by Disturbed starts playing as the lights come back up to a smoke-filled area, we see Gracie in a skull mask given to her by her uncle before his untimely passing. To go with the mask, she has a new ring jacket as well, the fans are being loud for her as she starts walking down the ramp with chants of her name. )
George Sullivan: There she is! Listen to this place.
Harley Meisner: They love her, lord knows the Trailblazers never get this type of reaction….
Sara Butler: She gets this reaction everywhere she goes or sometimes it’s mixed. It’s just who she is but it seems like these cheers get louder every time she comes out.
(The bell rings as the crowd is firmly behind Gracie as they’re chanting her name. They start to circle around each other before locking up in the middle of the ring, Tj tries to get one over on Gracie but she caught it quickly and shoved Tj on his back to the crowd's delight. TJ looks up at her with disgust, wondering why she did that to him.)
George Sullivan: This crowd is behind Gracie.
Harley Meisner: They should be behind TJ!
Sara Butler: She’s a star and she has a massive fanbase, with or without the title she’s the biggest star we have.
Harley Mesiner: I would disagree with you.
George Sullivan: I mean…she’s right.
(The fans that are rooting for TJ are behind him but they’re overwhelmed by the fans cheering Gracie. TJ got back up in his feet and took Gracie down with a single-leg takedown and starts to control the match, but Gracie isn’t the one to have that happen so she starts to fight back, they fight and roll around in the ring she kicks TJ out of the ring with a stiff kick to the stomach. TJ falls to the arena floor with a thud but gets back up anyway. Gracie, the speedster she is, is already jumping through the ropes with a suicide dive and TJ goes crashing into the barricade. Gracie is quick to capitalize on it and throws TJ back into the ring with a pin.)

(TJ kicks out, but Gracie stays on the attack.)
George Sullivan: Gracie is being Ultra aggressive tonight.
Harley Meisner: She better be careful, she doesn’t want to get DQ’ed.
(TJ starts to counterattack Gracie’s moves to a point where he can get back on his feet again. Once on his feet he starts to throw fists at her and they move back to the corner, where he thinks he has her trapped. But, you can never trap a Lopez. He’s about to find that out when he goes for a running clothesline but she slithers out of the way. She goes to the ropes and tries for a springboard something but TJ caught her in midair and slams her to the mat with a pin after.)
1……….
(Gracie shoots her arm up at the count of 1.)
George Sullivan: It’s gonna take a lot more than that to put her away.
Harley Meisner: A lot more….
(Tj keeps on the attack after the pin, trying to keep the high flyer grounded. It doesn’t last long before Gracie starts to fight back. Fighting back causes the both of them to go back and forth with their best moves. As the match moves on, TJ is starting to realize that Gracie isn’t going down like he hoped she should, so he’s trying to outsmart her, which is not an easy thing to do and he finds out as well. All of this starts to frustrate him)
George Sullivan: TJ is getting frustrated here.
Harley Meisner: Well, he thought he was in for an easy match and that’s gonna be his downfall.
(Back and forth goes the match, and as the match goes further along, Gracie gets stronger by her fans backing her. TJ’s fans are there too but they’re getting drowned out by her fans, which is typical for any match she’s in, she’s a polarizing figure. They continue to go back and forth as the crowd gets behind them, and several pinfalls happen for both of them that got the crowd to pop, but Gracie isn’t the one to quit just yet, she knows she has more left in the tank.)
George Sullivan: This match is back and forth!
Harley Meisner: I told you TJ would have a tough time.
(TJ throws Gracie into the corner and starts to charge at her but Gracie GRABS the ref and TJ crashes into the ref as she moves out of the way, TJ and the ref fall to the ground, and Gracie grows a wicked smile on her face before she rolls out of the ring, she grabs her title….)
George Sullivan: What is she doing?
Harley Meisner: She’s showing her Lopez temper, and because the ref is down, she can do anything she wants.
Sara Butler: Having a cheap victory?
Harley Meisner: Nothing is cheap about her, honey buns.
(She looks down at her title as she starts hearing the crowd cheer, she gloats for a moment before slithering into the ring, she slides into the feet of… Jenn Makarios-Lopez… She looks up at her.)
George Sullivan: Where’d she come from!?
Harley Meisner: I don’t know but if I were TJ, I’d better get out of that ring.
Jenn Makarios-Lopez: What are you doing, this isn’t you.
Gracie Lopez: Move….
Jenn Makarios-Lopez: No.
(Gracie mumbles to herself before walking away from Jenn and gets ready to clock TJ across the head with the title but Jenn stops her again by grabbing the title and they start yanking it back and forth before Gracie lets go and Jenn clocks TJ in the head with the title! Gracie smiles before she climbs on top of TJ and motions for the ref.)

Thre…..?
(Jenn yanks Gracie off of TJ and to the outside shaking her head in protest, she wasn’t going to allow Gracie to win it that way, or did she? Jenn grabs a chair from under the ring and both go back inside the ring, the ref is still down, TJ is down and Jenn has a chair… Jenn and Gracie are on the same page and Gracie holds TJ up, Jenn goes to swing the chair but she hits Gracie instead with it! Gracie falls down, TJ falls on top of her, and Jenn throws the ref by them before leaving the ring.)

Rick Henderson: The winner of this match.....and the NEW ICW World Heavyweight Champion......TJ ALEXANDER!!!
George Sullivan: What the hell did we just see?!
Harley Meisner: Jenn turned on Gracie! She’s been hinting at it for months now and she cost Gracie the title. But why?! I know Jenn wanted the title….
George Sullivan: Congrats to TJ but the real story here is why did Jenn turn? This is gonna be an awkward plane ride home for the both of them!
Sara Butler: She better have an explanation ready for Carnage then!
(Blood is coming from Gracie’s head as she looks up on stage to see Jenn standing there before she disappears as pyro goes off for TJ’s win as he celebrates.
The show fades off the air!!
