*DING DING DING*
Sara Butler: My God! I got goosebumps already.
George Sullivan: Let the right team win and then you will feel goosebumps upon goosebumps.

George Sullivan: Trust me, this crowd will play a massive role to drown their opportunity.
Harley Meisner: Destiny proved herself before and she will prove herself again.
Destiny Hunter immediately gets inside the ring and starts warming herself up and then walks toward The Crow confidently looking him into his eyes. The Crow keeps smiling in jest and starts mocking her by bending his knees, lowering his height to Destiny’s level as Destiny wasting no time hits a hard slap on Crow’s facing. The crowd cheers again as Destiny immediately followed with some hard right and left punches and irish whips her opponent.

On the otherside Destiny Hunter jumps to her corner and successfully tags Dean Andry in. Chris Punk backs himself off and goes outside as Dean enters the ring, showing aggression on his face waiting for the Crow to get on his feet as the crowd is heavily excited. The referee immediately grabs Dean’s arm and tells him to get off. Dean explains him that he got the tag but the referee refuses to recognize it because he didn’t see it.
Sara Butler: That is brutally unfair! I saw the tag, you saw the tag, the crowd saw the tag.
Geroge Sullivan: Doesn’t matter, Sara! Nobody’s testimony is counted as per the rule.
Dean keeps arguing but referee too forces him to get outside. On the other side of the ring Robert Saints is seen to appear himself through the barricades and connects Viper Cutter (RKO) to Destiny Hunter outside the ring.

Impact couldn’t believe what just happened. He again steps back a little further and knocks Floyd down with another spear, this time a more powerful. But Floyd, although slowly, but still manages to get himself up like after receiving the first spear.
Sara Butler: What does this man has in his mind?
Harley Meisner: He is an opportunist, Sara, and Floyd definitely knows this through Darren Maddox. That’s why he keeps refusing to give up.
Adam Impact fingers through his hair, go back to the corner and sits as he is looking for a third spear.

(The show goes backstage to inside Darren Maddox’s locker room. He is not booked tonight, but he is here because his father Giovanni Maddox has requested his very first visit with his grandson Maverick to take place here tonight at the arena. Darren is standing alone in his locker room. He is still very angry about his father being granted the right to start seeing Maverick.)
(Suddenly Giovanni Maddox arrives in the doorway. He sees Darren standing alone and he starts to smirk. He is wearing a dark grey business suit and expensive shiny black shoes made in Italy.)
Giovanni Maddox: I am here to see my grandson….
(Darren turns his head and looks at his father, but says nothing. Darren looks away from him again. Darren clearly does NOT want this to be happening. Giovanni slowly walks into the room and goes over to stand near his son, but keeps his distance in caution of Darren possibly physically attacking him.)
Giovanni Maddox: I know you do not want me to see Maverick, but this was a long time coming. You had to have known this would happen eventually. You have never allowed me to see him even though I had asked you many, many times to let me see him. So….you left me no choice. I had to take you to court in order for me to finally see Maverick. It is my right as his grandfather.
(There is a silent pause between the two men, then Darren turns his head to look at Giovanni.)
Darren Maddox: You think you’ve won don’t you…..
(Giovanni starts to smirk.)
Giovanni Maddox: ….I have. That is why I am here tonight. I am here for my first of MANY visits with my grandson. If I did not win, I would not be here.
(Darren just stands there looking at his father, sickened by Giovanni's arrogance, but says nothing. Truth is, Darren is emotionally exhausted because of this. But he will never admit this to Giovanni.)
(We now see little Maverick Maddox come walking into the locker room with his mother Lycra by his side. Giovanni turns around and sees the two of them. He looks at Maverick with a smile.)
Giovanni Maddox: There he is! My precious grandson!
(Maverick stops and looks at Giovanni with a sad face. He does not want to visit with his grandfather.)
Maverick Maddox: I….guess you’re here to see me. I was hoping you wouldn’t show up.
(Darren looks at Maverick, then looks at Giovanni.)
Darren Maddox: Your grandson doesn’t want to see you. He’s a smart boy. He sees right through your “act” just like everyone else does.
(Lycra remains silent as Giovanni keeps looking at Maverick.)
Giovanni Maddox: I am very much looking forward to having our visits Maverick. Tonight is our first one. The person who was appointed by the court to supervise it is here as well. They are waiting for us a few doors down in one of the conference rooms. Let us go now. I brought some video games ready for us to play.
(Darren speaks up as he looks at Giovanni with a serious face.)
Darren Maddox: …..Don’t you mean mind games?
(Giovanni turns and looks at Darren. Giovanni says nothing and looks back at Maverick. The court appointed supervisor arrives at the doorway.)
Court Supervisor: Are you ready for your visit with your grandson Mr. Maddox?
Giovanni Maddox: Yes, I am. So very much! Come now Maverick!
(With a smile, Giovanni walks out of the room. The court supervisor waits for Maverick. Maverick looks up at Lycra.)
Maverick Maddox: Do I have to?
(Lycra looks sad as she answers her son.)
Lycra: Yes sweetheart…. But your father and I are going to be right here waiting for you when you get back. Your grandfather gets forty-five minutes with you.
(Maverick replies in a sad tone.)
Maverick Maddox: Forty-five minutes that’s gonna feel like forever….
(With his head hung down, Maverick slowly walks out the door along with the court supervisor. After watching them leave, Lycra turns with a sad face and looks at Darren who is even more angry now. He doesn’t know what to do to stop this.)
Darren Maddox: You see what he's putting our son through??
(Darren slowly walks to the other side of the room, and then, out of nowhere, grabs the glass of water that is sitting on the table and in an angry rage, whips it across the room, smashing it into a thousand pieces as it hits the wall!)
[RINGSIDE AREA]
Harley Meisner: Time for another interesting match, ladies and gentlemen.
Sara Butler: That’s right! ICW Women’s Champion, Candace will be defending her title against the former champion, Lacey Payne who happened to defeat her tonight’s opponent in her debut match.
The song The House Rules by Christian Kane starts to blast over the PA system. When the lead singer starts to sing, the ring announcer says into the microphone.
Ring Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, being accompanied to the ring by her husband and Manager, " Payne Thriller" Shawn Payne, she is the lady who is known in the International Championship Wrestling Federation as " Lady Payne". She is Lacey Payne!!!!
The duo is seen coming out holding hands. They high five some fans and keep on walking on down to the ring. When they get to the ring part, he helps her get inside of the ring. She thanks him and he follows right behind his beautiful wife. He helps her talk out about her match as she waited on who she will be facing.
George Sullivan: I can see shades of Carnage right now. New champion is guaranteed!
"Vengeance" by ICW Anthology hits in the PA system as the lights in the arena turns red as Candace comes out from behind the curtain in her regular leather attires fully covered from neck to toe. She is wearing a hijab - a headscarf on her head and carrying the women’s title belt on her right shoulder.
Rick Henderson: .. and her opponent, residing in New Orleans, Louisiana, she is the reigning ICW Women’s Champion, Candaceee!!!!
Candace walks down the ramp and stops at the ringside staring the fans but ignore to tap hands with them and enters the ring through steel steps and finally gets into the ring. She reaches the right turnbuckle near the time-keeper's area and poses to the fans receiving mixed reactions from the crowd as her music dies. Lacey Payne at the corner warming herself up, shaking her legs and arms and also slapping her face a couple of time to avoid the nervousness and brings some rage in her eyes. The referee takes the belt from the champ and shows it to both contenders and then at the camera.
Sara Butler: This is going to be one of THE historical match tonight.
Harley Meisner: No doubt about that.
The referee delivers the belt to the timekeepers area and then calls for the bell after checking on both women. *DING DING DING* - the match gets underway by Lacey Payne running toward Candace and starts nail some good right hands over her head, taking her to the corner and keeps punching on her skull. Candace pushes her away but Lacey runs back toward the champion and delivers her a swinging elbow right between her jaw and throat. Candace immediately moves to the other side to catch some breath. Lacey keeps stalking her and hits a right hand right on her back as Candace falls on her knees bending her back in pain.
George Sullivan: Dominator is being dominated. I can smell the gold being switched very soon.
Lacey grabs the wrists of Candace from behind and pressure her knee in the middle of Candace’s back, locking her into a submission move. The referee leans to the ground toward Candace and asks her if she wants to give up. Candace keeps refusing and slowly gets to her feet. She by all means swings her body and kicks Lacey into the guts and take her down immediately by a hard punch on her head. Lacey is down, as Candace rubs his forearm on her mouth to check if she is bleeding from her lips.
Harley Meisner: Looks like Lacey was quite offensive toward her face, haha!
She picks up Payne and irish whips her to the corner and connects her with a clothesline. Before Lacey could fall down, Candace irish whips her again to the opposite corner but then turns the move into a running bulldog from behind. The champion immediately turns the challenger’s body and hooks up her leg. The referee begins counting as Shawn Payne taps his hands on the apron to wake her up and not to give up that early.

Payne kicks out before the third count. Shawn claps from the outside and sends her the positive vibes from the apron. Candace approaches the ringside area and warns Shawn to stay away as Shawn steps back and raises his hands voluntarily and says that he is only here to support his wife. Candace picks Lacey up again, locks her head under her arms and delivers a suplex. She covers her opponent one more time..

But Lacey manages to kicks out again after the second count. Candace stomps over the head of Lacey and sits in squatting position, she raises Lacey's head by pulling her hair and tells her that she has no choice but to walkout gold-less yet again. Lacey immediately spits on Candace’s face as Candace gets her hands off of Lacey’s hair and immediately stands up in disgust.
George Sullivan: Oh! Hahaha! My Gawd!!!
Sara Butler: Big mistake by the challenger. The champ is not gonna like this
Candace steps back removing the spit by her palms and then hits a massive kick right on Lacey’s back and locks her in an arm-bar immediately. Lacey Payne screams in pain and starts moving her body to hold the nearby rope. Shawn Payne gets tensed at the outside and tries to pull his wife’s legs to be set on the bottom rope but the referee saw the distraction and immediately approaches Shawn and warns him to stay away or he will be sent over. Shawn quickly gets himself off of the ring side and in the meantime Lacey Payne pokes into Candace’s eye to distract her and connects Candace with her finisher, the Payne Thriller (modified running blockbuster) and hooks up her leg. The crowd gets excited as what happens next, the ref starts counting.

Harley Meisner: Noways! Is the title changing hands?

Sara Butler: I think it is..

George Sullivan: Nooooooooooo!!!! Did she actually kickout?
Candace was nanoseconds away from losing her championship but she gets her shoulder up before the third fall could be counted. It seems like a closest pinfall of tonight's show. The screen replays the scene where Lacey first eye-rakes Candace and then immediately delivers her with the Payne Thriller to score an unsuccessful pinfall. Lacey couldn’t believe her eyes and seeks the explanation of the referee. Candace on the other end reaches the ropes and slowly gets to her feet as Lacey walks up to her and delivers a bitch slap which makes Candace get to her knees and palms again.
Sara Butler: What now? A plan B?
Lacey steps back after hitting a bitch slap at Candace and then runs toward her to deliver a curbstomp to her. Shawn Payne gets excited and starts jumping from the outside yelling at his wife to cover her. He also approaches the time keeper area and snatches the belt from the officials, while Lacey wasting no time covers the champion. The referee starts re-counting..

Harley Meisner: What on earth!!!
Candace holds on to the nearby bottom rope with her hand to break the pinfall. Shawn Payne drops his jaw out of disappointment and stands still while Lacey argues the referee for not completing the third fall until she realizes that Candace ended up grabbing the bottom rope to break the count. Lacey looks at the champion with frustration while the referee checks on Candace. Shawn Payne taking advantage throws the women’s title inside the ring to hand it over to Lacey and hit the champion and he himself climb on the apron to distract the referee.
George Sullivan: Yes, that’s the way! Go for it, Lacey!!
The referee immediately gets up and stops Shawn Payne to interfere by making him get off of the apron. On the other end Candace gets to her feet as Lacey Payne runs toward her with the belt to nail it over her head but Candace ducks quickly counters the move with a round-house kick which knocks the challenger out. She then picks Lacey up, wasting no time, irish whips her to the ropes and connects the challenger with her finisher, a swinging popup powerbomb. Candace than pulls the referee from behind and delivers a punch on Shawn’s face to get him off and quickly covers the challenger.
Harley Meisner: Whoa! Haha what a punch to Shawn

The crowd gives a standing ovation for overall match as Candace’s theme song starts playing in the arena. The screen plays some of the great scenes from the whole match including Candace breaking pinfalls twice and some great athleticism shown by Lacey Payne. The scene goes back live inside the ring where Candace is holding her championship right on her shoulder while staring the helpless Payne lying flat on her back.

The ambulance takes Jay away as Amanda Williams, the backstage interviewer gets into the scene and gets his attention.
Amanda Williams: Sorry to interrupt you Mr. Gibbs but it seems like Jay Impact will not be competing for the final round. Does that mean it is going to be a one on one match instead of the Triple Threat?
James Gibbs: No! Fans paid to watch Triple Threat and they will get what they paid for.
The scene goes back to the ringside area where Dean Andry still stands inside the ring with confusion on his face but that doesn’t seem to play any effect on his eagerness to win the tournament.

Sara Butler: How can this be a Triple Threat match without Jay? I just don’t get it.
George Sullivan: Sara, the boss said he will make it Triple Threat that means he will. By any means.
Adam Impact immediately gets inside the ring and locks the stare with Dean Andry as Dean hits his chest to his opponent and lock his nose and forehead with him as both men deliberately pushing each other until the referee gets in between them to separate them. He sends eacho man to their respective corners and checks on them. He announces that this is a one-on-one match where this is a disqualification and a countout like normal matches until the third opponent arrives.
Harley Meisner: You see, this is still a singles match until the third participant get himself inside that ring.
Referee checks on both men and then calls for the bell. *DING DING DING* -- The match gets underway as both men start unleashing hell on eachother. Dean Andry gets some upperhand on Adam Impact and takes him to the corner nailing him from left and right. Adam gets his way out and sends Dean to the turnbuckle and start nailing some good right hands at him.

Adam Impact gets the upper hand and then off of his opponent, takes his vest off and throw it outside. He picks up Dean and delivers him an uppercut which makes Dean lands to the nearby ropes, but Dean then comes back with a swinging clothesline taking Adam down.
George Sullivan: Man! This match is getting super interesting. I can’t even predict the winner.
Sara Butler: I am still curious about what did James Gibbs mean by the Triple Threat match.

Sara Butler: But he is now.
George Sullivan: Imagine, if Jay was wrestling instead of the Enforcer, the match would have been a lot more boring.
The Enforcer grabs both of participants and grabs them by their throats. He raises his arms up in the air, showing his strength to the viewers to deliver a double-chokeslam to Dean Andry and Adam Impact, Dean Andry successfully got the chokeslam but Adam turns his body and twists the Enforcer’s arm and gets himself off of his hold and rolls himself outside.

The Enforcer picks up Dean again and lifts him up, upside down and successfully connects him with the Tombstone Piledriver.
Sara Butler: Amazing! Absolutely amazing! I never ever thought in a dream that I would be seeing such a moment in the main event here tonight.
Harley Meisner: Look out guys, looks like the match isn’t over yet.
