(The show opens to the Unites States champion Rom Youngblood standing in the ring. He is joined by ICW Owner James Gibbs who is out here tonight to make a very special announcement!
(There is a small table in the center of the ring. Upon it is a black and gold piece of material that is covering up something underneath it.)
James Gibbs: It has been some time now since the United States championship belt has been refreshed. It has been the honor of many many superstars who have earned the right to hold this particular championship and to wear its prestigious belt around their waist.
James Gibbs: But with the glory that the title brings, it must always have a title belt that makes people stop for a second look. Its title belt must always demonstrate just how much the U.S championship really means.
James Gibbs: This is the reason I am here tonight. After a lot of consideration, I decided along with my management team, that we need something new for the U.S championship. A new look that will symbolize the true honor and excellence that the U.S title represents to anyone holding it.
James Gibbs: Therefore..... ladies and gentlemen......I present to you all.....the new United States Championship belt!
(James unveils the black and gold felt material covering the prize to reveal this...)
The fans are cheering loud for this brand new fresh looking U.S Championship belt!
James hands Rom the new title belt and Rom looks at it proudly with a smile.
The show goes to commercials!

Debut Match
Dean Tyler vs Chris Punk
Match will be added when we get it.
Winner: Dean Tyler
___________________________________________________________
(The show returns to see the camera focusing in on a group of people dressed in black hoodies and wearing black masks. They are together way up in the rafters and they are just looking down towards the ring.)
Harley Meisner: What is the deal with this group of unknown people here at tonight’s show?
Sara Butler: I don’t know but they’re really freaking me out.
George Sullivan: They definitely look like they spell trouble.
(The camera now goes back to the ring for the next match.)
____________________________________________________________
Destiny Andry vs Greta Mace
(Destiny and Greta lock up as soon as the bell rings, Destiny gets the early advantage and has Greta backed into the corner and has her way with Greta for the moment, she goes for the quick pin.)
1…
(Greta kicks out but Destiny keeps attacking, and has no signs of letting up that was until Greta fights back, with one giant forearm to the head, Destiny falls like a sack of potatoes to the ground.)
George Sullivan: Greta has had enough of Destiny.
Harley Meisner: I would too! Greta found her own way of separating the two and a big forearm like that would stop anybody.
We now see Women’s champion Nakano come down the ramp to ringside with a smirk.
George Sullivan: What the hell is Nakano doing out here?
Sara Butler: I really hope she’s not planning to interfere.
Nakano is standing on the outside watching the match.
Greta looks down at her.
Nakano: What are you looking at Greta Mace??!! I’m just out here to enjoy your match! Stop looking at me and focus on your match!! Otherwise you lose, you dumb fool!!
Greta shakes her head in annoyance of Nakano, then Greta puts her attention back on the match.
(Greta starts to take advantage of the match by having her way with Destiny right now, but Destiny tries to fight back as best she can but Greta isn’t messing around and she’s not letting Destiny get the best of her again, the more Destiny struggles the more Greta becomes stronger. But Destiny managed to get one big strike that staggers Greta, and she takes advantage of that. But Greta shakes the cobwebs off before playing one giant forearm again to Destiny, that rocks her and Greta finishes her off with a knee to the side of the head!)
1……
2…..
3!
George Sullivan: Wow…. I’ve never seen Greta so focused before.
Harley Meisner: Greta is showing what she has before WrestleCade, and that’s dominance.
Nakano holds up her women’s title belt at Greta who is standing in the ring after her win over Destiny.
Nakano slowly heads back up the ramp, keeping the smug smirk on her face.
Winner: Greta Mace
The show heads to commercials.
__________________________________________________________
(We see Knight Blaze standing in the ring with a microphone and he looks angry!
Knight Blaze: So management has ordered me to come on out here and give all you people an explanation as to why I attacked Eddie Lopez Jr, even though none of you idiots deserve an explanation from me!!
Fans: BOOOOO!!! BOOOOOOO!!!!
Knight Blaze: Since when do I have to answer for any shit that I’ve done?? I’m Knight Blaze! I would have thought by now that I would be the one getting some respect given to me around here! But no, apparently that’s too much to ask and now I’m the one who’s gotta give a reason for attacking Eddie!!
Knight Blaze: Okay then! Fine! You want the damn reason why I did it??! Here it is! I went after Eddie because I’m liking the fact that he’s arrived here in ICW thinking he can just coast to fame and fortune off the last name of his old man!! Guys like me have to work our way up and ya’ll know I busted my ass to get to where I am now!!
(The fans are not buying this reason and think Knight is just spouting out untrue trash talk.)
Knight Blaze: And to make things worse, he needs this worthless bimbo female interpreter named Brooklyn Martinez to translate for him! Gimme a break!! You wanna be employed by ICW? SPEAK ENGLISH THEN!!! But no, Eddie Lopez Jr. gets a free pass! Well I’m sick of it!!
Knight Blaze: Little Eddie Jr. is the perfect reason for me to come back, make my return, and kick his ass on back to his daddy!!
(“The fire within” by Within Temptation starts to play on the PA system as Brooklyn Martinez starts to walk out on stage, she stares a whole through Knight Blaze.)
Brooklyn Martinez: Wow, pushing the edge there with those original comments eh?
(Brooklyn shows no hesitation and steps into the ring with him, unafraid and doesn’t really care either. She’s not scared of any man, especially someone like him.
Brooklyn Martinez: You keep running your mouth like you actually matter here, but let's be honest here man, nobody missed you when you were gone. Nobody cares you were gone either and by the response you got before you ran your mouth, seems like the crowd didn’t care about your little explanation, and neither do I.
(Brooklyn walks around Knight, staring at him….)
Brooklyn Martinez: I could knock your teeth down your throat if I wanted to, but I’ll leave that for EJ. I didn’t sign here to be a wrestler even though I have wrestled before, and I’ve kicked asses of people like you before so you don’t scare me. As a matter of fact, when I’m standing in front of you right now, you don’t intimidate me either, you talk a big game but everyone knows you don’t back it up, so you’re barking up the wrong tree.
(Brooklyn inches closer to him.)
Brooklyn Martinez: You poked the bear and the bear is gonna fight back. EJ has already been in the ring with a monster, has been in the ring with hall of famers, and he’s beaten them. If you think getting beat by the Lopez family week in and week out was tough, wait till you get in the ring with him, and now that you’ve pissed him off…. It’s your funeral….
(Brooklyn smiles at Knight before dropping the mic at his feet and leaving the ring to her song again to the crowd's delight.)
Harley Meisner: She gave me the chills….
George Sullivan: Well, she knows how to work that mic and she just tore into Knight Blaze in the nicest way possible.
Sara Butler: Oh she could have cut loose and really got him but i think she’s trying to keep the focus on the match between EJ and Knight coming up at WrestleCade.

Non Title
Floyd McCarver vs John Blade
The show returns from commercials with John Blade and Floyd McCarver already in the middle of the ring as the referee checks both men for illegal objects before asking for the bell to ring to start the match.
Blade and Floyd lock up in a test of strength in the middle of the ring as Floyd overpowers Blade back into one of the corners and then runs into the same corner and connects with a Running Clothesline.
Blade crumbles down to the mat as Floyd begins stomping a mudhole into Blade until the referee comes and separates the two men. Blade makes it back up to his feet and knocks down Floyd with a shoulder tackle and then another one and finally a third one.
Harley Meisner: Blade is really taking it to Floyd as the match continues.
Sara Butler: Floyd will regroup and get back into this match.
George Sullivan: Blade needs to keep the pressure on Floyd if he hopes to win this match.
Floyd is lifted back up to his feet by Blade who then throws him against the ropes. Floyd bounces off the ropes and connects with a Spear knocking down Blade.
Floyd then gets into a three point stance looking for the finish of the match as he runs at Blade going for the Carved Up but Blade is able to move out of the way causing Floyd to crash shoulder first into the ring post.
Blade then begins whipping the arm of Floyd into the ring post repeatedly until the referee stops Blade and helps Floyd back up to his feet. Blade pounces on Floyd going for an Arm Bar and Floyd is now struggling as he finally makes his way to the bottom rope forcing Blade to break the hold or get himself disqualified.
Harley Meisner: Floyd is not looking good in there as this match continues.
Sara Butler: Floyd needs to refocus on the match if he wants to win here tonight.
George Sullivan: That Arm Bar surely did a lot of damage to the arm of Floyd.
Floyd uses his good arm to throw Blade halfway across the ring. Floyd then goes after Blade who rolls out of the ring but Floyd dives through the ropes and knocks Blade down to the arena floor.
Floyd throws Blade back into the ring and then run against the ropes and connects with the Lou Thesz Press. Floyd then picks up Blade going for a Suplex but Blade is able to transition it into a Suplex of his own.
Floyd gets slammed down to the mat and then Blade pumps up his Reebok's as he waits for Floyd to get back up to his feet and then connects with the Attitude Adjustment.
Blade goes for the cover as the referee counts the three counts and awards the winner of the match to John Blade.
Winner: John Blade wins the match by Pinfall!!!
John Blade celebrates his victory in the ring as the show goes to a commercial break.
Winner: John Blade

The following announcement appears on the tron:
The WKW brand has ended. We thank all who did their best to support it.
(The camera suddenly goes to backstage where we see Jackson Kent looking up at the television monitor and is seeing this announcement about WKW. Jackson slowly starts to smirk a big smirk on his face.)
Jackson Kent: I’ve made old washed up Enforcer lose everything. WKW was his baby and because he couldn’t take the heat I dished out upon him, he has now lost it ALL. Hehehe...
Jackson Kent: I get to have all the credit for this and I love it. Oh this is great news. I have finally broken The Enforcer! Hehehe!!
(Jackson is chuckling as he is so proud of himself for costing The Enforcer to lose EVERYTHING.)
________________________________________________________
(The show goes backstage to Head of Creative Nigel Bartholomew’s office. We see a close-up of a contract being signed before the book closes, and the camera pans back to see Nigel and Crystal Lopez standing there. Crystal has a smile on her face.)
Nigel: Welcome aboard the team! I saw how you handled yourself being a referee in your dad’s match last year and I’m glad we finally got the rights to sign you!
Crystal Lopez: It took a year but school comes first, and since that’s out of the way, I can focus on my refereeing career now!
Nigel: I’m so happy to hear that! I know this match isn’t going to be easy for you, but someone had to do it.
Crystal Lopez: I’m gonna call it down the middle, and if one of them gets out of line, they’ll be put back in their place.
Voice: Is that so?
(Crystal and Nigel turn to see Jenn who quietly entered the room, she stares right at Crystal.)
Jenn Makarios-Lopez: You made a big mistake signing that contract…..
Crystal Lopez: How so?
Jenn Makarios-Lopez: You know as well as I do, you can’t handle the Lopez name and you can’t handle the pressure that comes with it, that’s why you chose to be a ref. In a way it’s smart but if anything happens in this match, it won’t be my fault.
Crystal Lopez: Look, I have no idea what crawled up your ass and died lately but you should focus that energy on my sister and not me. I know what you’re trying to do, you’re trying to intimidate me so I rethink my decision, my decision is final. I’m going to be the referee for this match, rather you like it or not.
(Jenn mumbles to herself as she exits the room and enters the hallway, the camera stays on Nigel and Crystal for a moment before we heard a commotion going on in the hallway! Nigel and Crystal run out to see Jenn and Gracie fighting with each other again, just like the last show! A group of officials and Crystal herself starts to break them up before Nigel gets in the middle of them.)
Nigel: ENOUGH! I’m tired of you two always fighting from here until Wrestlecade, you two are NOT to lay one finger on each other, here or in public because i hear that you do, both of you will be SUSPENDED without pay! You two are my top billing match and I won’t have you two getting injured before that happens. Now for the rest of this show, i don’t want to see either of you in my building, now go!
(The officials separate the girls and take them in different directions and escort them out of the building to no further drama but things have gotten out of hand between the two of them.)
George Sullivan: So, if these two touches each other in or outside of the arena, they’ll be suspended?!
Harley Meisner: Well someone has to stop them from tearing each other apart, I’m not sure what happened with the two of them but Gracie is the jealous one.
George Sullivan: Gracie the jealous one?! What the hell are you talking about?!
Sara Butler: Crystal is gonna play a factor in this match, did you see how she threw herself into that brawl to separate them? She’s no-nonsense and I like that in my referees

Big Randino vs Aiden Zane
“Ladies and gentlemen, this next match is scheduled for one fall. First, he hails originally from Rome, Italy, but now resides in West Hollywood, California, he weighs in at 275 pounds, here is the Big Randino!”
Red & Green colors flash around as "The Full Blooded Italians Theme - No Sleep" plays. The fans start jamming out to the theme because of it's rockin theme. Then Big Randino comes out bobing to the song. He waves his arms back and forth to the music and slaps the fan's hands as he heads down the ramp to the ring. He rolls underneath the bottom rope to enter the ring and poses on a near by turnbuckle with a big smile on his face as he is happy to be there. He hops down and awaits for his opponent as he flex poses for the ladies in the crowd.
“And his opponent, he is from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and weighs in at 210 pounds, he is Aiden Zane!”
“Bulletproof” by Godsmack hits the arena and Aiden Zane comes onto the stage and stops to look out at the fans who are cheering for him. He makes his way to the ring, gets into the ring and he looks out at the fans.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The two circle each other, Randino obviously has an advantage in size and strength, Zane in speed and agility. Randino tries to plow through Zane with a clothesline, but Zane sidesteps him and kicks him in the back of the thigh. He follows up with a kick to the chest, but that kick seems to have very little effect on Randino, so he kicks him in the back of the leg again. Randino throws Zane off of him and limps around, kicking his leg out to get a little feeling back. Zane gets up and runs at him, but Randino hits him with a big boot, knocking him down, and pins him.
1…
Kickout!
Randino puts Zane in a front headlock, then changes position so he can pound Zane’s chest with forearms. He gets off of Zane and picks him up by his hair, he takes him and sends him into the opposite ropes, going for a clothesline, but Zane ducks, then Randino bends over for a back body drop, Zane hops over him. Randino then catches Zane who tries a crossbody block, he holds him up and looks like he is going to fallaway slam Zane, but Zane lands on his feet, when Randino gets up, Zane hits him with a running forearm smash, then another, then finally hits him with a jumping high knee to Randino’s chin. Randino goes down and Zane goes for the cover.
1…
2….
Kickout!
*Randino gets to his knees, and Zane hits him with a forearm shot, Randino shakily gets to his feet, and Zane goes for another forearm smash, but Randino blocks it and hits Zane with a headbutt, then puts his hand around his throat for a chokeslam, but Zane hits him with a couple of back elbows to the head to break free. Randino tries to hit him with a clothesline, but Zane ducks again, and hits him with a big kick to the face. Randino starts to stumble around, allowing Zane to roll him up from behind, he then flips over and completes the jacknife pin.*

3!!!
“The winner of this match, Aiden Zane!”

(Both the World Champion TJ Alexander and the challenger Jackson Kent are in the ring. Cassandra Caldwell is standing by the table where the world title match contract for WrestleCade is upon it.)
Cassandra Caldwell: Alright guys, I want this signing to go down with no problems. I will not tolerate any issues from either of you. So we'll start with you Jackson.
(Jackson looks at TJ and gives a smirk.)
Jackson Kent: You do realize that you're about to lose that world title right?
TJ Alexander: No I don't realize that because that's not what's going to happen at WrestleCade.
Jackson Kent: You are so delusional. You honestly think you're going to retain that world title against me? Come on man. Be real here.
TJ Alexander: You're the one that's not seeing this for what it is. You see, I know exactly what you're trying to do, Kent.
Jackson Kent: Oh really? And what is it you think I'm trying to do?
TJ Alexander: You're trying to rattle my nerves to make me doubt myself. You want me going into this match not feeling one hundred percent certain that I can beat you. But the truth is....
(TJ stands up from his chair and looks at Jackson.)
TJ Alexander: I know damn well that I CAN and WILL beat you.
(Jackson gives a big smirk, then shakes his head, picks up the pen and signs the contract.)
Jackson Kent: You are so wrong about that. So wrong.
(TJ then picks up the pen and he too signs the contract.)
Cassandra Caldwell: Okay guys, now one of you leave the ring first, followed by the other. I want no problems.)
(TJ Alexander turns and starts to leave the ring. But then Kent charges at TJ from behind and takes the champ down!!!)
(The two men are now brawling in the ring, while Cassandra is now shouting for security to come deal with this! Security rush into the ring and are trying to break TJ and Jackson up as the show heads to commercials!)
