[The show opens with the Friday Night Thunder Video Package, then the cameras pan around showing off the audience.]
(The show is now inside the locker room of Floyd McCarver where we see his wife Arianna McCarver has come here with him to the show this week. They have brought along their one and a half year old son Anthony Darren McCarver.)
Floyd McCarver: I'm so happy that you wanted to come with me this week to be here at the show.
Arianna McCarver: I want come this week not only be with you, but because is right here in Martin Luther King Jr. arena. What better way pay respect to Martin Luther King Jr. than make special visit to this arena name after him.
Floyd McCarver: I agree. I love any time we get together, whether it's here at the shows or relaxing at home with our little son here.
(Floyd smiles proudly at his little son who is sitting in the chair next to them with a stuffed bear that he is holding onto. He is a very quiet boy and shy.)
Arianna McCarver: Our son Anthony is among black population in this country. I do fear for when he be older and how people going to treat him. Hate against many race and culture is grow here USA. Oh Floyd, I no want ever see our son Anthony be subject to brutal people who set out hurt him.
(Floyd tries to comfort Arianna's feelings about how racism at some point is sure to affect their son when he is older.)
Floyd McCarver: I will do everything in my power during Anthony's life to protect him, and I will always advocate for his rights in this country.
Arianna McCarver: We must try make sure Anthony stay safe in his life. I afraid for him when he start school. What then Floyd? What if he get bully just because color his skin? I so fear that day this may happen.
Floyd McCarver: I know. It's a sad thought, but we are protective parents, and if anyone and I mean anyone, tries to bully our son, rest assured there will be hell to pay. I will never let anyone bully Anthony, whether it be in elementary school, high school, college or university. Makes no difference to me. And if it gets too bad, then we will have him home schooled. How would you feel about that?
Arianna McCarver: Yes Floyd. I be in full favor for this. We will home school Anthony if this race problem get worse by time he go school. Our son safety must come above all.
(Floyd embraces Arianna in a hug as they both look down at their one and a half year old son Anthony with concern on their faces as they fear that because Anthony is a child of color, that he may fall victim to hate crime in the future.)
The Crow vs Travis Deacon Hall
The show returns to ringside with Travis Deacon Hall and The Crow in the middle of the ring.
The referee asks for the bell to ring to signify the match has started as they lock up in a test of strength with Travis getting the upper hand turning it into an Overhead Belly to Belly Suplex.
Travis let’s Crow back up to his feet as Crow now is running against the ropes and connects with Running Dropkick. Travis is knocked down to the mat.
Harley Meisner: Travis is using his strength and size to overpower Crow.
Sara Butler: Crow is no spring chicken in this business so he’ll bounce back.
George Sullivan: Travis has not a lot of pressure during this match seeing as his ICW Mayhem Championship is not on the line in tonight’s match.
Travis gets back up to his feet and catches a running Crow and then connects with a DDT. Crow is planted into the mat as Travis goes for the cover.
The referee gets a two count as Crow gets his left foot on the bottom rope. Crow rolls out of the ring to catch a breather. Travis goes out of the ring after Crow. Crow quickly gets back into the ring and dives between the top and middle ropes as Crow connects with the Tope Con Hilo knocking down Travis.
Travis is thrown back into the ring by Crow who quickly climbs to the top rope and jumps off the top rope going for the 450 Splash but Travis moves out of the way causing Crow to crash into the mat.
Harley Meisner: Crow is not looking good right now as this match progresses.
Sara Butler: Travis got lucky there as he was able to move out of the way from that 450 Splash.
George Sullivan: Crow will find his way back into this match.
Travis picks up Crow and throws him against the ropes and then connects with the Spear as Crow comes back towards Travis.
Travis starts punching away at Crow who stops the punches by blocking them and then hits the jawbreaker on Travis. Crow grabs the legs of Travis and then connects with the leg drop to Travis’ midsection.
Crow taunts to the ICW Universe before picking up Travis and connecting with the Sling Blade knocking Travis down to the canvas.
Harley Meisner: Crow turned it around with that Jawbreaker.
Sara Butler: Travis will get back in this match just watch and see.
George Sullivan: Crow with that good offense there but can he keep the momentum?
Crow and Travis are now back up on their feet as they are in the middle of the ring once again locked in a test of strength.
Crow gets the better of Travis in this exchange as he transitions it into a Side Headlock and cranks on the pressure to Travis.
Travis lifts Crow up and slams him down to the mat with a Side Slam that breaks Crow’s hold.
Crow gets up to his feet and scores with a dropkick to the knee of Travis and then picks him up and connects with The Crow. Crow then climbs to the top rope and connects with the Bowery and gets the three counts.
The referee raises Crow’s arm before he exits the ring and heads backstage to the Outsiders’ locker room as Travis is checked out by the doctor at ring side before he walks off back to the Outsiders’ locker room.
Winner: The Crow via Pinfall
(Inside the locker room of Darren Maddox, we see Darren all ready to have a serious chat with his son Maverick.)
Darren Maddox: Come here Mav…. I wanna talk to you...
(The boy goes over to his father slowly and looks up at him. Darren sits down on the chair nearby so that he is now in front of Maverick, down to his level, and Darren is looking at his son.)
Darren Maddox: I know there’s something going on with you. Last week you asked me to bring you to the show, so I did. Now this week you asked me again to bring you to the show. You don’t want to be here for no reason. There’s something going on, so tell me what it is.
(The young boy just stands there, not really sure how to answer. If he tells Darren the truth, he is afraid it will anger his father. But Maverick knows if he lies, then that will only anger his father as well, so Maverick decides it is time to just tell his Dad the truth.)
Maverick Maddox: Yes, there is a reason why I wanted to be at the shows…
Darren Maddox: Which is?
Maverick Maddox: Well….please don’t be mad, but….last week, I went to see Jenn Lopez at her locker room to see her about something.
Darren Maddox: Okay….To see her about what?
(Maverick hesitates, then answers his father.)
Maverick Maddox: To see if she would send Aunt Lexi a video of me telling her how much I miss her….
(Darren is surprised by what he has just heard.)
Darren Maddox: Aunt Lexi as in your mother’s former friend Alexis?
Maverick Maddox: ...Yes.
(Again, Darren has to pause to take this in.)
Darren Maddox: You’ve never mentioned to me before that you miss Alexis.
Maverick Maddox: I haven’t said it to you, but I have to Mom. I’ve tried and tried to talk to her about it, but she won’t listen to me. She always says she doesn’t wanna talk about Aunt Lexi, and she doesn’t wanna hear me asking anymore. But just because Mom doesn’t wanna talk to her, why do I have to suffer by not getting to ever see Aunt Lexi? And I DO miss Aunt Lexi a whole bunch. I just wanna see her again….
(This is all coming out of left field for Darren. So unexpected that his son is standing here telling him how much he misses and wants to see his mother’s former friend Alexis Makarios, a woman who Maverick has loved so much ever since he was just a little toddler. Alexis had always made time for him and they got along so great together and grew so close to each other that he always saw her as his Auntie Lexi who he knew he could trust WITH HIS LIFE.)
(Darren slowly stands up and he runs his hand through his hair in frustration, not sure what to tell his son.)
Darren Maddox: Mav, I didn’t know you’ve been missing Alexis so badly. But….I can understand why you would be. I mean….you and her were very close. But I just don’t know how you could see her now. We lost contact with her after your Mom walked away from WXW.
Maverick Maddox: But it’s already been arranged for me to see Aunt Lexi….
Darren Maddox: What are you talking about?
(A smile comes to Maverick’s face.)
Maverick Maddox: She should be here at the arena by now.
Darren Maddox: She should be here by now? Mav, what are you talking about??
Maverick Maddox: Just follow me! Please Dad! I don’t need to explain, I can show you! Come on! I don’t wanna wait anymore! I just have to see her! Follow me Dad!
(In an instant burst of energy, the boy quickly heads out of the locker room with Darren following right behind him. Maverick quickly walks through the backstage area until they arrive at the locker room of Jenn Lopez.)
Darren Maddox: Okay, why are we at Lopez’s locker room? You’re confusing the hell out of me right now.
Maverick Maddox: Just wait! I have to do the secret knock!
Darren Maddox: The secret knock? Oh this just keeps getting better and better…
(With a big smile, Maverick knocks the secret knock on Jenn’s door. It opens and there stands Jenn Lopez looking down at Maverick. Jenn doesn’t open the door fully, only partially so that no one can see inside her locker room in case Lycra just might be around tonight unexpectedly.)
Jenn Lopez: Hey Mav….are you ready to go in?
Maverick Maddox: So she’s really here?!!
Jenn Lopez: She sure is. After seeing your video to her, she got on the next flight to be here tonight.
(Darren is now confused as ever and wants answers NOW. He looks right at Jenn with a very serious face.)
Darren Maddox: You wanna tell me what the hell is going on?
Jenn Lopez: Later.... Right now, your son has waited far too long already to see a certain Auntie of his.
(There is an immediate silence among all three of them. Darren keeps his eyes on Jenn as he now realizes what exactly is going on here.)
Darren Maddox (calmly, quietly):: Are you telling me that Alexis Makarios is behind this door right now?
Jenn Lopez: Yep….
Darren Maddox (calmly, quietly): And she’s come here to see my son?
Jenn Lopez: Yep….
(Darren can’t believe this. His wife’s former friend Alexis is here to see Maverick, but Darren knows that if Lycra knew about this, she would flat out not allow this to happen. Darren looks down at Maverick who is all excited and wants in that room to see his Aunt Lexi right now!)
Maverick Maddox: Dad, I’ve waited for so long to see her, and I’m not waiting anymore! It’s really hurt me to not be able to see her, and I’m done waiting!
(Suddenly, Maverick takes the initiative and opens the locker room door and runs into the room to his Aunt Lexi who is not actually shown on camera.)
(Jenn stays at the doorway and keeps the door shut most of the way so that if Lycra is around tonight, then she will not see this secret visit happening right now. Darren has a serious expression as does Jenn.)
Darren Maddox: You do realize I’m gonna have to tell Lycra about this? We keep no secrets from each other and I already know how she’s gonna react to this. She’s gonna HATE it….
Jenn Lopez: I don’t give a damn if she’ll hate it or not. And for the record, it was Maverick who came to me last week wanting me to help him contact Alexis. It wasn’t me who started this. Maverick came to me all on his own. You’ve got a real brave son in there, so be proud of him, not angry.
Darren Maddox: I’m not angry about what he did. I had no idea he was this hurt about not seeing Alexis.
Jenn Lopez: Yeah well, now he gets to see her and it’s long overdue, so when they’re done with their visit, I’ll bring Maverick back to your locker room.
(Darren takes a deep breath. He wasn’t prepared for any of this.)
Darren Maddox: Alright.... Just don’t let Maverick out of your sight for one second. Johnstone is here tonight and I don’t want him doing anything bad to my son.
Jenn Lopez: My whole clan is here. Trust me, none of us will let anything happen to Maverick. If that asshole ever tried anything on Mav, he wouldn’t live to see tomorrow.
Darren Maddox: I’ll be in my locker room.
(Keeping his serious expression, Darren slowly walks away from Jenn, then Jenn turns and goes into her locker room, shutting the door behind her and locking it to keep Maverick extra safe.)
Ace Reigns vs Floyd McCarver
Match went back and forth for awhile, at one point it looked as if Ace had the match in the bag, but it was Floyd McCarver with the pinfall victory with Carved Up hit on Reigns.
Winner: Floyd McCarver via Pinfall
[Commercial Break]
The show returns from commercial break with the site of a car pulling up into the parking lot. Rom Youngblood and Dean Andry climb out of the car after parking. Only to be surrounded by Police Officers from the local department.
Police Officer: Rom Youngblood, Dean Andry put your hands up and don't move.
Both guys put their hands up and freeze, but they are wondering what's going on.
Rom Youngblood: What's going on?
Police Officer #2: The two of you are under arrest.
Dean Andry: What!?
Rom Youngblood: What are we under arrest for? We haven't done anything.
Police Officer: That's what they all say.
Police Officer #2: Rom, Dean, you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him present with you while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to have a lawyer, one will be appointed to you.
Dean and Rom both get handcuffed and placed into an awaiting police car as they are taken away to the jail.
Adam Gatner vs Asriel Buzzard
(Bell rings for Buzzard and Gatner match. Buzzard as an aggressive start at the start, and he doesn’t shy away from trying to take down the bigger man.)
George Sullivan: Someone is angry tonight.
Harley Meisner: When isn’t he angry?
(Buzzard still has his way with Gatner, but Gatner starts to fight back. He throws Buzzard across the ring, Gatner gets some offense in but not a lot. Buzzard starts to fight back, when he does he has is way with Gatner. Throwing him out of the ring too. Buzzard goes after him, but Gatner knows what is coming, so he does it first. He throws Buzzard face first into the ring post.)
George Sullivan: I’m not sure how smart that was.
Harley Meisner: Big mistake.
Sara Butler: I wouldn’t want to be Gatner right now.
(The match moves back into the ring Gatner goes for a pin attempt.)
1………
(Buzzard powers out of it. After the pin attempt, Buzzard has had enough of Gatner. Buzzard starts to dominate the remaining part of the match, and he doesn’t let go either. Gatner tries to fight back but it’s no use. Buzzard is on fire. Buzzard lays out Gatner with a strong clothesline.)
1…….
2…..
3!
George Sullivan: Well, that has to be record time.
Harley Sullivan: Better luck next time Gatner. Just wasn’t your night.
(Buzzard after the match was done, slithers out of the ring and heads to the back. He’s done what he needed to do for the night.)
Winner: Asriel Buzzard via Pinfall
[Commercial Break]
(Camera swings to the commentary team at ringside.)
George Sullivan: Tonight has been a action packed night, But we still have more to come!
Harley Meisner: We sure do, and thank god someone put me on camera. I’m handsome after all….
George Sullivan: Wait… hold that thought, we have something going on backstage!
(Scene switches backstage to a lot of commotion and chattering, medical officials and referees too. They all surround Asrel Buzzard who’s laying on the ground holding his leg and his arm as if he’s been attacked by someone. Nigel Bartholomew is there as well.)
Nigel Bartholomew: what the hell happened here!?
Ref 1: Not sure, I was walking around getting ready for the next match and I found him lying here. He had a crate on his back too.
Nigel Bartholomew: We’re going to get some answers and I’m going to find out who did this. Seems like every week a different wrestler gets attacked by some random things.
Ref 1: Well, I promise you I didn’t anybody when it happened. Turned my back for a second and boom, Buzzard was down.
(While the workers are working on Buzzard, and while Nigel and the ref are discussing what happened, a figure in the background shows up. Wearing all black with an object resting on their shoulder. But as quickly as the figured appeared, it disappeared again when Nigel Bartholomew turned around to check on Buzzard.)
Nigel Bartholomew: Looks like he got attacked with some stick of some kind, but I can’t figure out what it is, anyway, take him away. Let the experts deal with this.
(The medical staff takes Buzzard away, Nigel Bartholomew, looks around for clues of what happened.)
Harley Meisner: Well, it wasn’t me, that’s for sure! Coulda been Lycra! She seems like the type of person to do this.
George Sullivan: With no lead?! You’re crazy. Someone who hates him did this, but who?
Non-Title
Renegades Elite (Jennifer Carpenter Lopez & Gracie Lopez) vs The Flock (Candace & Hera)
(The bell rings to start the match. Gracie decides she wants to start first, which Jenn nodded. The teamwork between them is amazing, however on the other side of the ring, Hera and Candice are trying to figure who to start. Gracie has none of this, she goes after Candice, and Hera climbs out of the ring. The match starts fast between Gracie and Candice. Gracie, the high flyer out of the two and the speed demon, is showing off her skills. Using the ropes to her advantage of Candice can’t find a way to stop her.)
George Sullivan: Gracie is flying around the ring here!
Harley Meisner: I don’t like it.
George Sullivan: You don’t like anything anyway.
(After a springboard hurricanrana from Gracie, she goes for a quick pin.)
1….
2……
(Candice kicks out.)
Sara Butler: Looks like Gracie wants to get this match over with.
(After the pin attempt, Gracie stays on Candice for a little while but it doesn’t take too long. Candice starts to claw her way back into the match. Once she does, it’s an all-out brawl between the two of them for a good 5 minutes before Candice tags in Hera. Gracie and Hera have a standoff for a second, looking at each other in the eye, ready to square off and they do! They fight for a bit before Gracie rolls towards her corner and tags in Jenn)
George Sullivan: Here we go!
(If you thought the match was fast-paced earlier, the intensity of this match picked up even more. Hera and Jenn are going at it as they did in their past feud a couple of months ago like they haven’t missed a beat. Back and forth they go, clotheslines, spinebusters, you name it they did it. The 2 of them spill to the outside of the ring, but that was where Candice gets involved. Candice and Hera have their way with Jenn. From seemingly out of nowhere, here comes Gracie flying into the picture frame doing a springboard shooting start. Jenn ducks out of the way and Gracie connects with the other two!)
George Sullivan: Oh god!
Harley Meisner: where did she come from?!
(The replay shows that Gracie ran the length of the ring and jumped OVER the ropes and ring post. Back to live-action, Jenn throws Hera back into the ring, Candice crawls back to her corner, Gracie walks back towards her. Jenn covers Hera.)
1…….
2……..
(Hera kicks out at the count of 2. Jenn works over Hera still for a few minutes before Hera fights back. Hera and Jenn again fight around the ring before Hera tags in Candice.)
George Sullivan: Good match between these 4!
Harley Meisner: Would you expect anything else?
(At this point of the match, towards the end. Jenn is starting to show signs of slowing down, but she fights her way to Gracie’s corner and slaps her daughter’s hand. Gracie jumps into the ring still high energy, and Candice can’t handle it. Jenn sneaks around the ring and takes out Hera by throwing her into the ring steps. Gracie handles Candice in the ring by kicking Candice across the face with a spinning kick. She goes for a springboard 450, her finisher, and connects with her. She covers Candice.)
1……..
2……….
3!
George Sullivan: Whoa. Gracie covered the champion.
Harley Meisner: Cheated!
George Sullivan: I’m going to ignore you. Big win for them!
(Gracie and Jenn celebrate around the ring after their win.)
Winner: Renegades Elite via Pinfall
Back In Back plays as James Gibbs comes walking out from the back with a serious expression on his face. He climbs into the ring with a microphone already with him.
James Gibbs: As everyone seen both Rom Youngblood and Dean Andry has been arrested, we haven't heard what they were arrested for however. But this puts a damper on tonight's main event. So I have no choice but to postpone this tag match against Ian and a partner of his choosing.
Harley Meisner: This sucks, I was looking for to Extreme Justice beating the snot out of Ian and his partner.
Sara Butler: We all will get to see it, just a little later Harley.
James Gibbs: So now the next match will become tonight's main event.
James climbs out of the ring and heads towards the backstage area. As the show goes to a commercial break.
Main Event
Non-Title
The Enforcer vs Robert Saints
The show returns from commercials with Robert Saints and The Enforcer already in the ring as they lock eyes on one another.
Harley Meisner: This one is a powder keg just waiting to explode.
Sara Butler: You can say that again Harley; these two men while they respect each other for what they have done for this business, at the end of the day there’s still bad blood between these two men.
George Sullivan: And to think that we’re getting a pay per view caliber match on free television just makes this match all the more sweet in the eyes of the ICW Universe.
Robert and Enforcer lock up momentarily in a test of strength before Robert gets out of it and yells at the referee to wipe down his hair because it’s making his hands get wet.
The referee hands Enforcer a towel to wipe his hair and then Enforcer throws the towel at Robert who bails out of the ring and avoids getting hit with the towel.
The referee picks up the towel and places it outside of the ring alongside Enforcer’s ICW United States Championship. Robert heads back into the ring and Enforcer walks up to Robert who then goes between the ropes forcing the referee to back up Enforcer and tells Robert to get out of the ropes.
Harley Meisner: Robert with the mind games early in this match, usually Enforcer is the one that plays the mind games on his opponent.
Sara Butler: Don’t forget Harley, Robert is a fourth generation wrestler so he knows just about every trick in the book.
George Sullivan: There’s only so much that Enforcer will tolerate before he beats the holy hell out of Robert.
Robert and Enforcer are once again in the middle of the ring as Enforcer wants another test of strength but Robert isn’t cooperating as he walks up to Enforcer and spit a loogie in the face of Enforcer.
Enforcer wipes the loogie away and is physically showing that he’s pissed off now as he grabs Robert by the neck and throws him into the corner and starts throwing some soup bones as the referee counts to four before making Enforcer get Robert out of the corner.
Robert stumbles out of the corner and uses the ropes to keep his balance. Enforcer connects with one more right hand dropping Robert to the mat.
Harley Meisner: This is not the way that Robert wanted the match to go tonight.
Sara Butler: Robert will bounce back like The Viper he is and give Enforcer a fight.
George Sullivan: Enforcer is fighting angrily and that could come back to bite him.
Robert spins back up to his feet and Enforcer grabs Robert by the neck going for the Chokeslam but Robert is able to break Enforcer’s grip with the European Uppercut.
Robert now is stomping on every ligament of Enforcer as he does the Saints Stomp and then at the head he back up to the ropes and then drops his knee to where Enforcer’s head was as Enforcer rolled out the way causing Robert to crash his knee hard on the ring mat.
Enforcer sits up as Robert backs up in one of the corners as he’s grasping at his knee trying to shake feeling back into it. Enforcer back up on his feet and walks over to Robert and starts kicking him in the stomach and then starts choking Robert with his boot.
Harley Meisner: Robert took too long going for that Jumping High Knee and now he’s paying for it.
Sara Butler: Enforcer is really stomping a mud hole into Robert.
George Sullivan: Robert will come back just wait and see.
The referee separates Enforcer and Robert, he asks Robert if he wants to call the match but Robert says no. Robert pulls himself up with the ropes and as he gets out of the corner he snaps back into viper mode as he shakes off his knee pain and then locks up with Enforcer in the middle of the ring.
Robert can be heard talking trash to Enforcer as they lock up in the test of strength. Robert rakes the eyes of Enforcer making him break the hold and then Robert kick out the left knee of Enforcer and then connects with the Spike DDT.
Robert is now aiming for Enforcer as he’s coiled getting ready for the Viper Cutter. Enforcer spins around as Robert uncoils and goes for the Viper Cutter but Enforcer throws Robert off unfortunately into the referee causing the referee to get knocked out.
Harley Meisner: Robert really thought he had Enforcer there but it just wasn’t meant to be.
Sara Butler: Enforcer was able to shake off The Viper Cutter there because this isn’t their first rodeo.
George Sullivan: Robert really needs to regroup if he wants to win here tonight.
The referee is out cold as Enforcer connects with the St. Louis Stunner to Robert. Enforcer is going for the cover but there is no referee to count the pinfall attempt by Enforcer.
Finally another referee runs down to the ring to count the pinfall attempt of Enforcer but only gets a long two counts.
Robert gets back up to his feet as he looks at the referee while Enforcer is seen arguing with the referee. Enforcer is in the corner with the referee as Robert runs into the corner and clothesline Enforcer into the referee dropping the second referee.
Both men are now looking at both referees being knocked out as they turn their attention back to one another.
Suddenly the music of William Jack Gibbs plays over the arena as he makes his way onto the top of the entrance ramp.
William Jack Gibbs: Stop this match, it’s apparent that there’s more bad blood between the two of you than we have time for on tonight’s program so unfortunately because you both knocked out the two referees assigned to this match that I have no choice but to rule this match a draw. So now the two of you, get out of the ring.
William Jack Gibbs heads back to his office as Enforcer and Robert Saints are separated by backstage hands and other members of the ICW roster. Enforcer heads back up the entrance ramp as Robert exits through the crowd as the show ends.
Winner: No Winner due to a Draw
(The show is now inside the locker room of Floyd McCarver where we see his wife Arianna McCarver has come here with him to the show this week. They have brought along their one and a half year old son Anthony Darren McCarver.)
Floyd McCarver: I'm so happy that you wanted to come with me this week to be here at the show.

How would you feel about that?
Arianna McCarver: Yes Floyd. I be in full favor for this. We will home school Anthony if this race problem get worse by time he go school. Our son safety must come above all.
(Floyd embraces Arianna in a hug as they both look down at their one and a half year old son Anthony with concern on their faces as they fear that because Anthony is a child of color, that he may fall victim to hate crime in the future.)

George Sullivan: Travis has not a lot of pressure during this match seeing as his ICW Mayhem Championship is not on the line in tonight’s match.
Travis gets back up to his feet and catches a running Crow and then connects with a DDT. Crow is planted into the mat as Travis goes for the cover.
The referee gets a two count as Crow gets his left foot on the bottom rope. Crow rolls out of the ring to catch a breather. Travis goes out of the ring after Crow. Crow quickly gets back into the ring and dives between the top and middle ropes as Crow connects with the Tope Con Hilo knocking down Travis.
Travis is thrown back into the ring by Crow who quickly climbs to the top rope and jumps off the top rope going for the 450 Splash but Travis moves out of the way causing Crow to crash into the mat.
Harley Meisner: Crow is not looking good right now as this match progresses.
Sara Butler: Travis got lucky there as he was able to move out of the way from that 450 Splash.
George Sullivan: Crow will find his way back into this match.
Travis picks up Crow and throws him against the ropes and then connects with the Spear as Crow comes back towards Travis.

(Inside the locker room of Darren Maddox, we see Darren all ready to have a serious chat with his son Maverick.)
Darren Maddox: Come here Mav…. I wanna talk to you...
(The boy goes over to his father slowly and looks up at him. Darren sits down on the chair nearby so that he is now in front of Maverick, down to his level, and Darren is looking at his son.)
Darren Maddox: I know there’s something going on with you. Last week you asked me to bring you to the show, so I did. Now this week you asked me again to bring you to the show. You don’t want to be here for no reason. There’s something going on, so tell me what it is.
(The young boy just stands there, not really sure how to answer. If he tells Darren the truth, he is afraid it will anger his father. But Maverick knows if he lies, then that will only anger his father as well, so Maverick decides it is time to just tell his Dad the truth.)
Maverick Maddox: Yes, there is a reason why I wanted to be at the shows…
Darren Maddox: Which is?
Maverick Maddox: Well….please don’t be mad, but….last week, I went to see Jenn Lopez at her locker room to see her about something.
Darren Maddox: Okay….To see her about what?
(Maverick hesitates, then answers his father.)
Maverick Maddox: To see if she would send Aunt Lexi a video of me telling her how much I miss her….
(Darren is surprised by what he has just heard.)
Darren Maddox: Aunt Lexi as in your mother’s former friend Alexis?
Maverick Maddox: ...Yes.
(Again, Darren has to pause to take this in.)
Darren Maddox: You’ve never mentioned to me before that you miss Alexis.
Maverick Maddox: I haven’t said it to you, but I have to Mom. I’ve tried and tried to talk to her about it, but she won’t listen to me. She always says she doesn’t wanna talk about Aunt Lexi, and she doesn’t wanna hear me asking anymore. But just because Mom doesn’t wanna talk to her, why do I have to suffer by not getting to ever see Aunt Lexi? And I DO miss Aunt Lexi a whole bunch. I just wanna see her again….
(This is all coming out of left field for Darren. So unexpected that his son is standing here telling him how much he misses and wants to see his mother’s former friend Alexis Makarios, a woman who Maverick has loved so much ever since he was just a little toddler. Alexis had always made time for him and they got along so great together and grew so close to each other that he always saw her as his Auntie Lexi who he knew he could trust WITH HIS LIFE.)
(Darren slowly stands up and he runs his hand through his hair in frustration, not sure what to tell his son.)
Darren Maddox: Mav, I didn’t know you’ve been missing Alexis so badly. But….I can understand why you would be. I mean….you and her were very close. But I just don’t know how you could see her now. We lost contact with her after your Mom walked away from WXW.
Maverick Maddox: But it’s already been arranged for me to see Aunt Lexi….
Darren Maddox: What are you talking about?
(A smile comes to Maverick’s face.)
Maverick Maddox: She should be here at the arena by now.
Darren Maddox: She should be here by now? Mav, what are you talking about??
Maverick Maddox: Just follow me! Please Dad! I don’t need to explain, I can show you! Come on! I don’t wanna wait anymore! I just have to see her! Follow me Dad!
(In an instant burst of energy, the boy quickly heads out of the locker room with Darren following right behind him. Maverick quickly walks through the backstage area until they arrive at the locker room of Jenn Lopez.)
Darren Maddox: Okay, why are we at Lopez’s locker room? You’re confusing the hell out of me right now.
Maverick Maddox: Just wait! I have to do the secret knock!
Darren Maddox: The secret knock? Oh this just keeps getting better and better…
(With a big smile, Maverick knocks the secret knock on Jenn’s door. It opens and there stands Jenn Lopez looking down at Maverick. Jenn doesn’t open the door fully, only partially so that no one can see inside her locker room in case Lycra just might be around tonight unexpectedly.)
Jenn Lopez: Hey Mav….are you ready to go in?
Maverick Maddox: So she’s really here?!!
Jenn Lopez: She sure is. After seeing your video to her, she got on the next flight to be here tonight.
(Darren is now confused as ever and wants answers NOW. He looks right at Jenn with a very serious face.)
Darren Maddox: You wanna tell me what the hell is going on?
Jenn Lopez: Later.... Right now, your son has waited far too long already to see a certain Auntie of his.
(There is an immediate silence among all three of them. Darren keeps his eyes on Jenn as he now realizes what exactly is going on here.)
Darren Maddox (calmly, quietly):: Are you telling me that Alexis Makarios is behind this door right now?
Jenn Lopez: Yep….
Darren Maddox (calmly, quietly): And she’s come here to see my son?
Jenn Lopez: Yep….
(Darren can’t believe this. His wife’s former friend Alexis is here to see Maverick, but Darren knows that if Lycra knew about this, she would flat out not allow this to happen. Darren looks down at Maverick who is all excited and wants in that room to see his Aunt Lexi right now!)
Maverick Maddox: Dad, I’ve waited for so long to see her, and I’m not waiting anymore! It’s really hurt me to not be able to see her, and I’m done waiting!
(Suddenly, Maverick takes the initiative and opens the locker room door and runs into the room to his Aunt Lexi who is not actually shown on camera.)
(Jenn stays at the doorway and keeps the door shut most of the way so that if Lycra is around tonight, then she will not see this secret visit happening right now. Darren has a serious expression as does Jenn.)
Darren Maddox: You do realize I’m gonna have to tell Lycra about this? We keep no secrets from each other and I already know how she’s gonna react to this. She’s gonna HATE it….
Jenn Lopez: I don’t give a damn if she’ll hate it or not. And for the record, it was Maverick who came to me last week wanting me to help him contact Alexis. It wasn’t me who started this. Maverick came to me all on his own. You’ve got a real brave son in there, so be proud of him, not angry.
Darren Maddox: I’m not angry about what he did. I had no idea he was this hurt about not seeing Alexis.
Jenn Lopez: Yeah well, now he gets to see her and it’s long overdue, so when they’re done with their visit, I’ll bring Maverick back to your locker room.
(Darren takes a deep breath. He wasn’t prepared for any of this.)
Darren Maddox: Alright.... Just don’t let Maverick out of your sight for one second. Johnstone is here tonight and I don’t want him doing anything bad to my son.
Jenn Lopez: My whole clan is here. Trust me, none of us will let anything happen to Maverick. If that asshole ever tried anything on Mav, he wouldn’t live to see tomorrow.
Darren Maddox: I’ll be in my locker room.
(Keeping his serious expression, Darren slowly walks away from Jenn, then Jenn turns and goes into her locker room, shutting the door behind her and locking it to keep Maverick extra safe.)
Ace Reigns vs Floyd McCarver
Match went back and forth for awhile, at one point it looked as if Ace had the match in the bag, but it was Floyd McCarver with the pinfall victory with Carved Up hit on Reigns.
Winner: Floyd McCarver via Pinfall
[Commercial Break]
The show returns from commercial break with the site of a car pulling up into the parking lot. Rom Youngblood and Dean Andry climb out of the car after parking. Only to be surrounded by Police Officers from the local department.
Police Officer: Rom Youngblood, Dean Andry put your hands up and don't move.
Both guys put their hands up and freeze, but they are wondering what's going on.
Rom Youngblood: What's going on?
Police Officer #2: The two of you are under arrest.
Dean Andry: What!?
Rom Youngblood: What are we under arrest for? We haven't done anything.
Police Officer: That's what they all say.
Police Officer #2: Rom, Dean, you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him present with you while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to have a lawyer, one will be appointed to you.
Dean and Rom both get handcuffed and placed into an awaiting police car as they are taken away to the jail.
Adam Gatner vs Asriel Buzzard
(Bell rings for Buzzard and Gatner match. Buzzard as an aggressive start at the start, and he doesn’t shy away from trying to take down the bigger man.)
George Sullivan: Someone is angry tonight.
Harley Meisner: When isn’t he angry?
(Buzzard still has his way with Gatner, but Gatner starts to fight back. He throws Buzzard across the ring, Gatner gets some offense in but not a lot. Buzzard starts to fight back, when he does he has is way with Gatner. Throwing him out of the ring too. Buzzard goes after him, but Gatner knows what is coming, so he does it first. He throws Buzzard face first into the ring post.)
George Sullivan: I’m not sure how smart that was.
Harley Meisner: Big mistake.
Sara Butler: I wouldn’t want to be Gatner right now.
(The match moves back into the ring Gatner goes for a pin attempt.)
1………
(Buzzard powers out of it. After the pin attempt, Buzzard has had enough of Gatner. Buzzard starts to dominate the remaining part of the match, and he doesn’t let go either. Gatner tries to fight back but it’s no use. Buzzard is on fire. Buzzard lays out Gatner with a strong clothesline.)
1…….
2…..
3!
George Sullivan: Well, that has to be record time.
Harley Sullivan: Better luck next time Gatner. Just wasn’t your night.
(Buzzard after the match was done, slithers out of the ring and heads to the back. He’s done what he needed to do for the night.)
Winner: Asriel Buzzard via Pinfall
[Commercial Break]
(Camera swings to the commentary team at ringside.)
George Sullivan: Tonight has been a action packed night, But we still have more to come!
Harley Meisner: We sure do, and thank god someone put me on camera. I’m handsome after all….
George Sullivan: Wait… hold that thought, we have something going on backstage!
(Scene switches backstage to a lot of commotion and chattering, medical officials and referees too. They all surround Asrel Buzzard who’s laying on the ground holding his leg and his arm as if he’s been attacked by someone. Nigel Bartholomew is there as well.)
Nigel Bartholomew: what the hell happened here!?
Ref 1: Not sure, I was walking around getting ready for the next match and I found him lying here. He had a crate on his back too.
Nigel Bartholomew: We’re going to get some answers and I’m going to find out who did this. Seems like every week a different wrestler gets attacked by some random things.
Ref 1: Well, I promise you I didn’t anybody when it happened. Turned my back for a second and boom, Buzzard was down.
(While the workers are working on Buzzard, and while Nigel and the ref are discussing what happened, a figure in the background shows up. Wearing all black with an object resting on their shoulder. But as quickly as the figured appeared, it disappeared again when Nigel Bartholomew turned around to check on Buzzard.)
Nigel Bartholomew: Looks like he got attacked with some stick of some kind, but I can’t figure out what it is, anyway, take him away. Let the experts deal with this.
(The medical staff takes Buzzard away, Nigel Bartholomew, looks around for clues of what happened.)
Harley Meisner: Well, it wasn’t me, that’s for sure! Coulda been Lycra! She seems like the type of person to do this.
George Sullivan: With no lead?! You’re crazy. Someone who hates him did this, but who?
Non-Title
Renegades Elite (Jennifer Carpenter Lopez & Gracie Lopez) vs The Flock (Candace & Hera)
(The bell rings to start the match. Gracie decides she wants to start first, which Jenn nodded. The teamwork between them is amazing, however on the other side of the ring, Hera and Candice are trying to figure who to start. Gracie has none of this, she goes after Candice, and Hera climbs out of the ring. The match starts fast between Gracie and Candice. Gracie, the high flyer out of the two and the speed demon, is showing off her skills. Using the ropes to her advantage of Candice can’t find a way to stop her.)
George Sullivan: Gracie is flying around the ring here!
Harley Meisner: I don’t like it.
George Sullivan: You don’t like anything anyway.
(After a springboard hurricanrana from Gracie, she goes for a quick pin.)
1….
2……
(Candice kicks out.)
Sara Butler: Looks like Gracie wants to get this match over with.
(After the pin attempt, Gracie stays on Candice for a little while but it doesn’t take too long. Candice starts to claw her way back into the match. Once she does, it’s an all-out brawl between the two of them for a good 5 minutes before Candice tags in Hera. Gracie and Hera have a standoff for a second, looking at each other in the eye, ready to square off and they do! They fight for a bit before Gracie rolls towards her corner and tags in Jenn)
George Sullivan: Here we go!
(If you thought the match was fast-paced earlier, the intensity of this match picked up even more. Hera and Jenn are going at it as they did in their past feud a couple of months ago like they haven’t missed a beat. Back and forth they go, clotheslines, spinebusters, you name it they did it. The 2 of them spill to the outside of the ring, but that was where Candice gets involved. Candice and Hera have their way with Jenn. From seemingly out of nowhere, here comes Gracie flying into the picture frame doing a springboard shooting start. Jenn ducks out of the way and Gracie connects with the other two!)
George Sullivan: Oh god!
Harley Meisner: where did she come from?!
(The replay shows that Gracie ran the length of the ring and jumped OVER the ropes and ring post. Back to live-action, Jenn throws Hera back into the ring, Candice crawls back to her corner, Gracie walks back towards her. Jenn covers Hera.)
1…….
2……..
(Hera kicks out at the count of 2. Jenn works over Hera still for a few minutes before Hera fights back. Hera and Jenn again fight around the ring before Hera tags in Candice.)
George Sullivan: Good match between these 4!
Harley Meisner: Would you expect anything else?
(At this point of the match, towards the end. Jenn is starting to show signs of slowing down, but she fights her way to Gracie’s corner and slaps her daughter’s hand. Gracie jumps into the ring still high energy, and Candice can’t handle it. Jenn sneaks around the ring and takes out Hera by throwing her into the ring steps. Gracie handles Candice in the ring by kicking Candice across the face with a spinning kick. She goes for a springboard 450, her finisher, and connects with her. She covers Candice.)
1……..
2……….
3!
George Sullivan: Whoa. Gracie covered the champion.
Harley Meisner: Cheated!
George Sullivan: I’m going to ignore you. Big win for them!
(Gracie and Jenn celebrate around the ring after their win.)
Winner: Renegades Elite via Pinfall
Back In Back plays as James Gibbs comes walking out from the back with a serious expression on his face. He climbs into the ring with a microphone already with him.
James Gibbs: As everyone seen both Rom Youngblood and Dean Andry has been arrested, we haven't heard what they were arrested for however. But this puts a damper on tonight's main event. So I have no choice but to postpone this tag match against Ian and a partner of his choosing.
Harley Meisner: This sucks, I was looking for to Extreme Justice beating the snot out of Ian and his partner.
Sara Butler: We all will get to see it, just a little later Harley.
James Gibbs: So now the next match will become tonight's main event.
James climbs out of the ring and heads towards the backstage area. As the show goes to a commercial break.
Main Event
Non-Title
The Enforcer vs Robert Saints
The show returns from commercials with Robert Saints and The Enforcer already in the ring as they lock eyes on one another.
Harley Meisner: This one is a powder keg just waiting to explode.
Sara Butler: You can say that again Harley; these two men while they respect each other for what they have done for this business, at the end of the day there’s still bad blood between these two men.
George Sullivan: And to think that we’re getting a pay per view caliber match on free television just makes this match all the more sweet in the eyes of the ICW Universe.
Robert and Enforcer lock up momentarily in a test of strength before Robert gets out of it and yells at the referee to wipe down his hair because it’s making his hands get wet.
The referee hands Enforcer a towel to wipe his hair and then Enforcer throws the towel at Robert who bails out of the ring and avoids getting hit with the towel.
The referee picks up the towel and places it outside of the ring alongside Enforcer’s ICW United States Championship. Robert heads back into the ring and Enforcer walks up to Robert who then goes between the ropes forcing the referee to back up Enforcer and tells Robert to get out of the ropes.
Harley Meisner: Robert with the mind games early in this match, usually Enforcer is the one that plays the mind games on his opponent.
Sara Butler: Don’t forget Harley, Robert is a fourth generation wrestler so he knows just about every trick in the book.
George Sullivan: There’s only so much that Enforcer will tolerate before he beats the holy hell out of Robert.
Robert and Enforcer are once again in the middle of the ring as Enforcer wants another test of strength but Robert isn’t cooperating as he walks up to Enforcer and spit a loogie in the face of Enforcer.
Enforcer wipes the loogie away and is physically showing that he’s pissed off now as he grabs Robert by the neck and throws him into the corner and starts throwing some soup bones as the referee counts to four before making Enforcer get Robert out of the corner.
Robert stumbles out of the corner and uses the ropes to keep his balance. Enforcer connects with one more right hand dropping Robert to the mat.
Harley Meisner: This is not the way that Robert wanted the match to go tonight.
Sara Butler: Robert will bounce back like The Viper he is and give Enforcer a fight.
George Sullivan: Enforcer is fighting angrily and that could come back to bite him.
Robert spins back up to his feet and Enforcer grabs Robert by the neck going for the Chokeslam but Robert is able to break Enforcer’s grip with the European Uppercut.
Robert now is stomping on every ligament of Enforcer as he does the Saints Stomp and then at the head he back up to the ropes and then drops his knee to where Enforcer’s head was as Enforcer rolled out the way causing Robert to crash his knee hard on the ring mat.
Enforcer sits up as Robert backs up in one of the corners as he’s grasping at his knee trying to shake feeling back into it. Enforcer back up on his feet and walks over to Robert and starts kicking him in the stomach and then starts choking Robert with his boot.
Harley Meisner: Robert took too long going for that Jumping High Knee and now he’s paying for it.
Sara Butler: Enforcer is really stomping a mud hole into Robert.
George Sullivan: Robert will come back just wait and see.
The referee separates Enforcer and Robert, he asks Robert if he wants to call the match but Robert says no. Robert pulls himself up with the ropes and as he gets out of the corner he snaps back into viper mode as he shakes off his knee pain and then locks up with Enforcer in the middle of the ring.
Robert can be heard talking trash to Enforcer as they lock up in the test of strength. Robert rakes the eyes of Enforcer making him break the hold and then Robert kick out the left knee of Enforcer and then connects with the Spike DDT.
Robert is now aiming for Enforcer as he’s coiled getting ready for the Viper Cutter. Enforcer spins around as Robert uncoils and goes for the Viper Cutter but Enforcer throws Robert off unfortunately into the referee causing the referee to get knocked out.
Harley Meisner: Robert really thought he had Enforcer there but it just wasn’t meant to be.
Sara Butler: Enforcer was able to shake off The Viper Cutter there because this isn’t their first rodeo.
George Sullivan: Robert really needs to regroup if he wants to win here tonight.
The referee is out cold as Enforcer connects with the St. Louis Stunner to Robert. Enforcer is going for the cover but there is no referee to count the pinfall attempt by Enforcer.
Finally another referee runs down to the ring to count the pinfall attempt of Enforcer but only gets a long two counts.
Robert gets back up to his feet as he looks at the referee while Enforcer is seen arguing with the referee. Enforcer is in the corner with the referee as Robert runs into the corner and clothesline Enforcer into the referee dropping the second referee.
Both men are now looking at both referees being knocked out as they turn their attention back to one another.
Suddenly the music of William Jack Gibbs plays over the arena as he makes his way onto the top of the entrance ramp.
William Jack Gibbs: Stop this match, it’s apparent that there’s more bad blood between the two of you than we have time for on tonight’s program so unfortunately because you both knocked out the two referees assigned to this match that I have no choice but to rule this match a draw. So now the two of you, get out of the ring.
William Jack Gibbs heads back to his office as Enforcer and Robert Saints are separated by backstage hands and other members of the ICW roster. Enforcer heads back up the entrance ramp as Robert exits through the crowd as the show ends.
Winner: No Winner due to a Draw
