The show opens up as a video package plays across the screen.
Marco Rossi vs Jackson Kent vs Jamo
We go to ringside where ICW's Ring Announcer Rick Henderson is standing in the ring, with microphone in hand.
Rick Henderson: Everyone we're ready for tonight's opening contest of tonight's Friday Night Thunder. The match is scheduled for one fall.
As the opening cords of Ace of Spades by Motorhead plays throughout the arena the camera begins panning around the crowd. However Jackson Kent is nowhere to be seen, not in the crowd, not in the entrance way, not anywhere.
Sara Butler: Oh no, not again, he can't be laid out by his mystery attacker again can he?
As if in answer to her question video footage begins playing of the attack, this time it begins a few minutes before the live footage had showed. As the man begins jumping Jackson he can't be made out, but all of a sudden he looks straight into one of the backstage cameras with a evil smile on his face. This specific video footage shows the attacker to be none other than....
Wait for it.....
KNIGHT BLAZE!!!
As we go back ringside once again the music changes to that of Back in Black by ACDC as James Gibbs makes his way out onto the entrance ramp.
James Gibbs: Everyone, good evening, glad you all could join us tonight, but I'm sorry to announce that this opening contest will not be happening. Marco Rossi, Jamo and Jackson Kent all 3 had flight issues that stopped them from being here tonight for this Friday Night Thunder show.
James looks as if he is about to walk off but turns back towards the ring.
James Gibbs: Also with the revelation of this new information that Knight Blaze is the attacker of Jackson Kent, at ICW's first PPV event WrestleCade, there will indeed be a match between Jackson Kent and his attacker Knight Blaze.
(The show goes to Darren Maddox standing backstage with his wife Lycra. There is tension between them after Adam Impact kissed Lycra last week.)
Lycra: Promise me you're not going to go after Adam tonight...
Darren Maddox: I'm sorry...but I can't promise you that.
Lycra: Get your anger in check Darren. DON'T go doing something stupid.
Darren Maddox: Going after Impact wouldn't be a stupid thing to do. In fact...it would be the RIGHT thing to do...
(Darren slowly walks away as Lycra watches him leave with much concern on her face. We now see their son Maverick Maddox walking up to Lycra. He stops to look up at her.)
Maverick Maddox: I'm worried about Dad...
Lycra: Yeah....So am I....
The show returns from commercials as the ending of What About Me? by Jim Johnston is playing over the arena as The Crow enters the ring and looks across the ring as Dark Tiger stands there glaring a hole through Crow.
The referee checks both men for illegal objects before asking for the bell to ring to start the match.
Tiger and Crow lock up into a test of strength with Tiger getting the upper hand turning the test of strength into a Belly to Belly Suplex as he throws Crow clear across the ring.
Crow gets back up to his feet and runs at Tiger and connects with the Dropkick. Tiger stumbles back up to his feet only to get caught with the Sling Blade from Crow.
Crow spins Tiger around and then grabs the legs of Tiger as he taunts to the crowd before connecting with the leg drop.
Harley Meisner: Crow has certainly came back after that beginning Belly to Belly Suplex from Tiger.
Sara Butler: Tiger really needs to regroup if he hopes to win this match against Crow.
George Sullivan: Tiger was just caught off guard is all but we'll see as the match continues.
Crow goes for the cover but only gets a long two count before Tiger gets his left foot on the bottom rope. Tiger makes it back up to his feet and then kicks Crow in the stomach doubling him over in pain before connecting with the Jacknife Powerbomb.
Tiger then grabs Crow by the hair picking him back up to his feet. The referee tells Tiger to let go of the hair or he'll get disqualified. Tiger can be heard shouting at the referee that he knows what he's doing and that the referee needs to remember his job.
Tiger Irish whips Crow against the ropes and upon his return he connects with the Bearhug.
Harley Meisner: Tiger has rebounded from earlier as he has connected with the Powerbomb.
Sara Butler: Crow is in a dire predicament right now as he's caught in the Bearhug by Tiger.
George Sullivan: Tiger is smart, he's using his strength to keep Crow from using his speed and high-flying abilities.
Tiger continues to put pressure on the lower back and spine area of Crow as the referee raises Crow's right arm and it drops.
Ref: One..........
The referee checks Crow's right arm the second time and it again drops to the side of his body.
Ref: Two.........
The referee checks the right arm of Crow a third time and it begins to drop so the referee starts to go and signal for the bell to ring to end the match but Crow springs to life and starts elbowing Tiger with his right elbow causing Tiger to break the grip of the Bearhug and last bit of energy in Crow as he hits a desperstion Jawbreaker.
Harley Meisner: I really thought Crow was a goner there courtesy of Tiger's Bearhug but Crow found a way out of it.
Sara Butler: This isn't Crow's first rodeo so he knows how to get back into the match in order to win.
George Sullivan: I would agree with you if the opponent didn't look so jacked up like Tiger, it's a hard come back for Crow right now.
Tiger exits the ring in order to collect himself but Crow doesn't allow this to happen for too long as Crow exits the ring and starts running on the barricade into a Flying Clothesline knocking down Tiger.
Crow tosses Tiger back into the ring and then climbs to the top rope and jumps off going for a Diving Elbow Drop but Tiger moves out of the way causing Crow to crash and burn on the mat.
Tiger goes for the cover but only gets a long two counts before Crow kicks out of the pin. Tiger transitions the pinning predicament into a side headlock onto Crow.
Harley Meisner: Crow might either tap out here or pass out from Tiger's Side Headlock.
Sara Butler: Crow is going to really have to rally if he wants to come back in this match.
George Sullivan: Tiger has that Side Headlock in deep as he has his forearm under Crow's throat making Crow have to really struggle for every breath the longer this hold is applied.
Crow starts to rally the fans up to cheer for him as he gets Tiger to the side of his body so then he can connect with the Sidewalk Slam forcing Tiger to break the Side Headlock.
Both men are down for a couple of minutes trying to regain their composure with Crow starting to move first.
Crow picks up Tiger and spins him around connecting with the Crow. Crow then rips off his shirt and throws it into the crowd before he makes his way to the top rope and connects with the Bowery.
Crow goes in for the cover on Tiger as the referee counts the three counts. The referee raises The Crow's arm to signify that he's won the match as Dark Tiger makes his way up the entrance ramp to the back.
Harley Meisner: Crow really preserved tonight during this match and as such he was able to walk out as the winner.
Sara Butler: Tiger had the right formula for success, he just couldn't get the correct percentages in order to pull out the win here tonight.
George Sullivan: Crow showed everyone including Tiger tonight that even though he might be Punk's kid brother, he can still bring the fight and even win a match without a distraction from Punk Saints or the Outsiders.
Crow continues to celebrate his victory in the ring as confetti and streamers start to fall from the rafters. Some of the confetti starts to stick to the back of Crow as he starts exiting the ring.
Rick Henderson: Here is your winner of the match...The Crow!!!
Crow now exits the ring and heads back up the entrance ramp as the show goes to a commercial break.
Floyd McCarver is shown outside James Gibbs's office, he knocks on the door and when he hears “Come in”, he opens the door and comes in.
James: Ah, Floyd, thanks a lot for coming.
Floyd: Thanks for inviting me, Mr. Gibbs, what can I do for you?
James: Please, call me James. Mr. Gibbs is my father.
Floyd: Thanks again, James.
James: I have been noticing that you haven't been your usual happy go lucky self, Floyd, is anything wrong?
Floyd: Well, things have been stressful at home, with the baby on the way, and Darren not wanting anything to do with me. Can't say that I haven't tried to make the best out of things, but sometimes it's hard to stay positive 100% of the time.
James: Well, don't worry about anything, if you need time off to be with Arianna, then that can be arranged. I know how important that is for the both of you. I also wanted to ask you how you felt about your time in ICW so far?
Floyd: Well, it hasn't been the greatest, I mean, so far I'm 0-3-1, I started slow at the old place too, but I feel I should be doing so much better.
James: We feel the same, I know you have greatness in you Floyd, so I want to tell you that your record may not be the greatest right now, that will be sure to change around once you get your footing. So don't worry about a thing as far as that is concerned. Now, your match with Robert Saints went to a draw. You will notice that Robert advanced to the semi-finals of the tournament for the World Heavyweight championship?
Floyd: Yeah, I did notice that, what exactly does that mean for me?
James: That I cannot tell you at this point, but all will be made clear by the end of this week's program. Just please, rest up, and get ready for next week's show. Be sure to make sure everything with Arianna is completely fine.
Floyd: Alright, sounds great, thanks for your time, Mr. G... I mean James.
James: You too, Floyd, great talking to you, see you soon.
Cameras fade on Floyd and James shaking hands with serious looks on their faces.
~Commercial Break~
Maxine Rush vs Destiny Hunter vs Katlyn Chase
We return from commercial break with Maxine Rush, Destiny Hunter and Katlyn Chase already in the ring ready for the match to begin. The referee calls for the bell to single the beginning of the match.
*Ding Ding*
As soon as the bell rings Maxine charges out of the corner connecting with a Spear on Destiny. Maxine gets Destiny to her feet before sending her running against the ropes, on Destiny's return Maxine hits a Japanese Arm Drag. Maxine then goes for a Big Boot on Katlyn, but Katlyn ducks under it before dropping Maxine with a Belly to Belly Suplex.
George Sullivan: Early momentum by Maxine, but it was quickly stopped by Katlyn.
Harley Meisner: Katlyn has been on fire as of late, tonight will be no different.
Sara Butler: With these three girls styles of wrestling this should be one heck of a match.
Katlyn gets Maxine to her feet before jumping into the air and coming down with a Standing Drop Kick. Destiny runs forward and drops Katlyn with a Bulldog. Destiny raises Katlyn to her feet before hitting a Diamond Cutter. Destiny goes up to the top rope and dives off for the Frog Splash, however at the very last second Katlyn is pulled out of the way by Maxine. Destiny crashes to the mat hard.
Sara Butler: Very hard landing by Destiny.
George Sullivan: If she needs a massage after the match, I would surely volunteer.
Harley Meisner: You're sick George.
George Sullivan: What? I didn't mean it that way Harley, get your mind out of the gutter.
Back to the action, Destiny has now rolled out of the ring to recover from her fall. Maxine and Katlyn are standing nose to nose staring each other down as neither backs away. All of a sudden Maxine delivers a Bitch Slap to Katlyn, Katlyn then returns one of her own. This goes on for a few times before Katlyn delivers a huge punch to the head of Maxine. Maxine charges at Katlyn only to be thrown up into the air and brought down with a Jacknife Powerbomb. Destiny is back into the ring now and Katlyn delivers a Sitout Jawbreaker.
Harley Meisner: Pretty fast passed match here by these three ladies.
Sara Butler: These ladies know how to entertain these fans.
George Sullivan: Especially Destiny Hunter, she's the fan favorite here tonight.
Destiny gets back to her feet and as Katlyn goes to kick her Destiny catches her leg. Destiny then flips Katlyn to the mat keeping a hold of the leg, but transitions it into the Ankle Lock. Katlyn begins struggling against the hold for a few moments until she uses her strength to flip Destiny off of her and to the mat hard. They both quickly get to their feet Katlyn a little quicker, she grabs Destiny and hits a Falling Neckbreaker. Maxine hits Katlyn with the Maximum Rush. She goes for the pin.

Destiny drops down onto Maxine breaking the count at only 2.
George Sullivan: Listen to these fans go crazy as Destiny keeps the match alive for herself.
Harley Meisner: These fans are crazy, this match should have been over.
Sara Butler: There is alot of fight left in all of these girls, this match continues.
Maxine starts arguing with the referee believing that she indeed had the 3 count and he had a slow count. But NO! He says it was only 2. While being distracted Katlyn runs forward and hits Maxine with a Running Knee Smash. Katlyn waits for her to get to her feet before hitting her with a KC-KO, Destiny charges at Katlyn only to be thrown out of the ring to the outside area. Katlyn then drops down hooking the leg of Maxine.

They replay the count as it can clearly be seen that Destiny was a second too slow as the referee's hand comes down for the 3 count.
Rick Henderson: Here is your winner.... KATTTTTLYNNNN CHASSSSSSEEEEEE!!!
Tournament TLC Match
Rom Youngblood vs Robert Saints
Line in the Sand by Motorhead plays over the arena as Robert Saints and his wife Kelly Robinson make their way out to the entrance ramp as red pyro hits down the sides of the entrance ramp making it's way towards the ring.
Harley: Time for our first match of the semi-final round tonight.
Sara: That’s right! Robert Saints faces off Rom Youngblood in a TLC Match, right here, right now..
Robert Saints and his wife Kelly Robinson now make their way down the entrance ramp to the ring. Robert Saints bounces onto the ring apron and then enters between the top and middle ropes into the ring as Kelly Robinson stands up onto the ring apron and does her trademark split under the bottom rope and then Kelly Robinson exits the ring and waits in her husband's corner as Robert Saints waits for his opponent to come out.
Rick Henderson: The following contest is a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. There are no disqualifications, no count outs. The only way to win this match is by a pinfall or a submission. Approaching the ring from San Diego, California, weighing in at 245 pounds, accompanied by Kelly Robinson, ROBERT SAINTS!!!...
George: Remember that Saints is a fourth generation wrestler. Youngblood needs to take this match seriously.
Shine Forever hits the PA system as Rom comes walking out onto the stage. He starts walking down the ramp, ignoring the fans as he does so.
Rick Henderson: .. and his opponent from Toronto, Ontario, weighing in at 270 pounds, ROM YOUNGBLOOD!!!
After getting down to the ring he walks up the steps onto the apron. Rom climbs up onto the turnbuckle and poses there for a moment listening to the cheers from the fans.
Sara: Remember guys how this match actually survived the cage match the last Carnage after delivering a davistating spear in mid-air from the top rope.
He climbs down off the turnbuckle looking down at Robert Saints. Robert Saints walks up to Rom Youngblood with a cocky smile on his face and start talking trash over him. Rom without any delay nails Robert’s face with a jab as referee calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
George: O boy! Bad idea to provoke a shining star.
Rom keeps hitting the right and left from his fists to Robert until he completely throws his opponent out of the ring as the crowd cheers. Youngblood then gets outside the ring through the ropes where a table was already set up. He picks up Robert Saints and hits him with some right hands and then puts him on the table.
Harley: Remember ladies and gentleman there’s no disqualification in this match. That means Rom Youngblood can hurt his opponent however he wants tonight.
Sara: That’s right, and the winner of this match will head into WrestleCade for the World Championship match in a Triple Threat Match.
While Robert Saints was still lying on the table, his wife Kelly interferes and covers his body with herself and gets in a war of words with Rom Youngblood daring not to hurt her husband. Rom Youngblood looks around and then quickly grabs Kelly with her hair from the back to make her moveaway. In the meantime, Robert gets off of the table and gives a solid punch into the guts of Rom.
George: That’s called the protection guys. At Least he is better than Darren Maddox, Robert Saints knows how to protect his wife.
Harley: Speaking of Darren Maddox ladies and gentleman so he is also competing tonight against Troy Devereaux in a Fans Bring Weapons match.
Robert Saints nails some right hand on the back of Rom Youngblood and sends him inside the ring. He then bows and starts searching for some weapon underneath the ring. Robert comes back with approximately a 10 feet ladder and slides himself inside the ring alongside with that ladder. Robert grabs the ladder and sets it up into the corner. He then quickly gets his hand on Rom Youngblood and takes him to the opposite corner and quickly irish whips him where the ladder was standing but Rom Youngblood reverse the move and Robert Saints ends up eating his own medicine.
Sara: Have a nice day, Robert Saints.
Robert Saints fall down in pain all the way to the ground as Rom Youngblood quickly covers his body.

Two count fall!
Rom Youngblood then grabs Robert Saints and makes him stand up and quickly nails him with an uppercut as Robert falls on that ladder again landing on his back. Youngblood grabs the head of his opponent and rubs it on the first step of the ladder as referee starts asking him to quit the match but Robert refuses so. In the meantime, Kelly Robinson climbs on the apron and starts yelling at Rom Youngblood again to play fair and square. Rom diverts his attention to Robert’s wife and then complains the referee to not let her interfere in the match.
George: Is it the part of women rights that a wife can interfere in her husband’s match? That’s an unfair business.
Harley: She loves him, George! She would love to see her husband qualify for the finals.
Referee suggests Kelly Robinson to not get inside the ring or else she will end up hurting herself as she quickly gets off of the apron which diverts Youngblood’s attention back to his opponent, Robert Saints but only to be connected by a Devil's Kick from him. Robert quickly goes for the cover..

Kick out by Rom Youngblood. Robert Saints starts nailing some punches on Youngblood’s head in frustration and anger and goes for another cover but Rom Youngblood didn’t let the referee count for the second fall and quickly raised his shoulder up. Robert Saints then turns around and yells his wife to bring some chairs. Kelly Robinson grabs two chairs at a time and slides them inside the ring as Saints quickly gets his hands on one of the chairs and stomps it on the ground and provoke Youngblood to get on his feet.
Harley: Don’t turn around, Rom, you ain’t gonna like the scene.
As soon as Rom gets into his scenes after getting back on his feet, Robert Saints connects a davistating chairshot on his head as Rom Youngblood falls straight on his back. Robert Saints without any delay quickly runs and hooks up the leg of Rom..

Sara: WHAT?! .. He did it?
George: No, he didn’t.
Harley: How in the world does Rom Youngblood kickout of that headshot?
Robert Saints starts yelling and smashing his hands on the mat and gets in an argument with the referee that he is not making the proper count. Referee keeps on refusing and argues back as Saints grabs the referee from his shirt and take him to the corner to confront him.
Harley: Don’t hurt that man. He is doing his job, come on!
George: This referee is an agent, Harley. He must have been bribed by Youngblood.
Sara: What are you talking about?
Robert goes outside and comes back with a table from the outside and set it up in the ring. He then gets to opponent and starts hitting him with some right and left fists and make him lie on that table. Robert then grabs both of the chairs and puts one chair around his upper and the other around his lower body. In the meantime, Kelly Robinson also gets inside the ring and helps him setting up the ladder that was already lying in to the corner. Robert then tells Kelly to get near the table careful and hold on to the body of Rom Youngblood.
Sara: What is he gonna do?
Robert Saints quickly starts climbing that ladder and gets himself balanced at the top of the ladder. He then jumps from that ladder and with a splash of his own but Rom Youngblood quickly gets off the table alongside with Robert’s wife Kelly Robinson as nobody’s home for Saints as he falls down from the ladder right to the table on his stomach.
Harley: Goodnight, Saints!
George: Let me go and check on Kelly Robinson. She seems to get hurt.
Sara: She doesn’t. She moved away.
Taking the advantage of the free fall Rom Youngblood quickly gets to his opponent, gets him up unto his feet and locks his head between his thighs and motions for the finisher. He then lifts Saints up in the air and comes back with The Nightmare's Plunge. Rom quickly hooks up the leg of Robert Saints as the referee counts.

Harley: Absolutely Sara! As we’re still down for two more match epic matches here tonight. Darren Maddox faces off Troy Devereaux in Fans Bring The Weapons Match. While Chris Punk will be battling against Adam Impact in a Barbedwire Massacre.
George: I am excited. Whooo!!!
The screen replays the match details where Robert Saint connects Rom Youngblood with a steel chair shot and how he miraculously kicked out and proceeding with the Nightmare’s Plunge and a successful 3 count fall.
Fans Bring The Weapons Match
Darren Maddox vs Troy Devereaux
From the PA system the sound of "D.N.A" fills the arena as the lights dim down on the crowd but the stage illuminates with flashing lights.
Sara: Woo! Its time for our second last semi-final match.
Harley: That’s right and the winner will be heading straight in a Triple Threat match this Sunday at WrestleCade.
Through those lights comes Troy Devereaux onto the main stage with his movie star looks. With his shades and his signature t-shirt he walks down the ramp brushing his shoulders off. Taking a few steps up the steel stairs and he takes a minute to walk across the apron and proceed to the middle of it.
Rick Henderson: This is a Fans Bring The Weapons match and scheduled for one-fall. Approaching the ring, from Grover Beach, CA, weighing in at 202 pounds, Troy Devereaux!!!
Troy grabs his shades removing them from his face and placing them on his head with an egotistical smirk on his face.
George: This is what we call the ‘Future’.
Harley: Only if he defeats Darren Maddox tonight.
He mouths off to some of the fans before entering between the ropes. Once in the ring he stands in the middle and with a snap of his fingers a single spotlight shines down upon him as he throws his arms out and looks up. The spotlight fades as Troy lowers his head with a smile on his face. Brushing his shoulders off once more listening to the fans boo him he chuckled pacing his way around the ring awaiting his opponent.
Harley: Remember ladies and gentleman, Darren Maddox is in a psychological warfare with Adam Impact. I doubt if he will be 100% focused on his match tonight.
Sara: I agree, Harley.
"The Second Coming" by CFO starts to play around the arena and Darren Maddox comes walking out from the back and stands on the stage looking out at the fans who are cheering for him.
Sara: And here we go.. The Savior, Darren Maddox.
Rick Henderson: .. and his opponent from Chicago, IL, weighing in at 217 pounds, Darrenn Maddoooxx!!!
He makes his way down the ramp and climbs into the ring. He starts jumping up and down to pump himself up for the match. He keeps a serious expression. The ring is surrounded by the different kind of weapons that fans brought including some seriously damaging stuff, musical instrument and home decor stuff and even kitchen utensils.
George: Look at all the stuff over here. ICW arena appears like a wholesale market here. $1 each. SALE SALE SALE!!
The referee calls for the bell as both men circles around and proceed for the lockup. Troy had the upper advantage, twists Maddox’s left arm applying the force. He then twists it again and hits a punch in the kidney. Maddox tries to break the hold by shoving his arm at his opponent but Troy ducks and reverse the move and takes Maddox into the corner with an arm-drag. Troy starts choking on Darren and then nails his face with the right hand. He then steps back and looks around the crowd and gesture for awesomeness as crowd starts booing him.
Sara: Troy Devereaux is no doubt appeared as one of the dominating athlete in this industry so far.
Harley: Yes, and people do know that if Troy is taking a part in a competition then the sports entertainment is highly promised.
Troy comes back to Darren to deliver him a punch but Darren blocks the move and starts hitting some right hands of his own and takes Devereaux to the opposite corner and keeps hitting right and left fists on the face and to the stomach of his opponent and he falls down on his butt and crowd start cheering.
George: Come on, Darren be easy on him. He didn’t steal your wife.
Darren then irish whips Troy to the ropes and comes back with a clothesline, Troy gets up but receives another clothesline from Maddox, but he gets up again quickly and gets connected by a super Enziguiri. Troy falls down flat on his face as Maddox goes for the cover.
1…
Kickout by Troy Devereaux…
George: How can Maddox expect Troy to give up with just one swing kick? Use some weapons.
Darren Maddox looks around and then leaves the ring through the ropes and starts searching for something good from the stuff that is thrown around the ring. He keeps on searching for something and ends up picking an old fashioned computer keyboard. He grabs the keyboard with the wire, swings it and throws it inside the ring which hits directly to the head of Troy, ends up breaking some of its keys as Troy grabs his face in pain.
Harley: Hahaha! What a throw, guys.
George: He should be in the olympics.
Darren then starts searching for something interesting, meanwhile Troy gets up and grabs Darren from the back of his hairs from the ring but Darren comes back with a Fire Extinguisher and spray it at Devereax’s face. Troy again gets off and starts running around holding and rubbing his face and the upper part of his body.
George: 911! What’s your emergency? -- Troy Devereax is on fire.
The whole ring got filled with a smoky look for a few second as Troy quickly moves outside the ring and comes back at Darren Maddox from him without making him realize and connects an inverted backbreaker on him from behind. Troy then diverts his attention to the weapons brought by the fans. He slowly picks up a small box which was wrapped in a gift paper. He gets confused and wonders what is inside, starts ripping the packing off and finally opens the box as a small but hard plastic punch comes out of a sudden from that tiny box and hits the chin of Troy. Troy yells and then throws the box in the crowd and starts swearing at them as the people around him start laughing.
Sara: Haha! My God, these fans are funny. That was one heck of a funny thing.
George: Haha yes! I wonder what else we got in there.
Troy takes Darren on his feet and kicks him in the guts and then irish whips him to the corner (pole) of the ring as Maddox’s body collide with the iron post as he falls down, grabbing his left shoulder in pain. Devereax slides his right hand inside his pants and takes out a brass knuckle from it.
Harley: Wooo! That’s no less than a weapon, guys.
Sara: Troy can trusts what he brought, enough to knock Darren Maddox out.
Troy wears the brass knuckle in his head and yells Darren Maddox to get up. As soon as Darren gets up Troy nails him with a punch on his head that has brass knuckle on it but Maddox ducks and nails him with a super-kick to the jaw, but Troy Devereaux amazingly grabs the foot of Darren Maddox and twists it and locks him into an ankle lock outside the ring. As referee starts asking Maddox if he wants to give up. Darren screams in pain but at the sametime reject giving up for the match.
George: What a great reversal. I really can’t predict now who shall I choose as a winner of this match.
Troy keeps applying the pressure on Darren’s ankle but Darren keeps on refusing which makes Devereaux leaves Maddox foot but then quickly punches his back with the brass knuckle as Darren’s eyes go widely open and it seems he can’t breath. He curves his back and rolls his body as Troy gives him a quick elbow drop near the ring and hooks up the leg.

TWO COUNT! Sudden kickout by Darren Maddox. Troy Devereaux gets up and stomps his opponent with some kicks in the ribs and turns toward the announce table. He then quickly starts walking toward it and demands for the steel chair. He grabs Rick Henderson by his collar and pulls him away and comes back with a steel chair on which Henderson was sitting.
Sara: That’s not fair. He already has gotten so many weapons around him. Why picking up the chair?
Harley: Troy is smart, Sara. He doesn’t trust in what fans brought.
George: He should never trust this idiots. Even I don’t.
Dereveaux gets to his opponent and throws the chair down where Maddox was lying straight. He then quickly picks up Maddox on his shoulder and then raises his body up in the air holding him completely with both hands and hits Gorilla Press Slam as Darren body comes down hits his stomach where the chair was lying. Leaving him in an ultimate level of pain. Troy goes for the cover.
1….
2…
2 ½.. . Miraculous kickout by Darren Maddox as Troy Devereaux couldn’t believe his eyes, and asks the referee if it was really the two. He then grabs Darren Maddox by hairs and start hitting his forehead with the right fist again and again. He then gets Maddox again on his feet and locks him into a suplex but Darren blocks the move by wrapping his shin into the back of Troy’s leg and delivers a Suplex of his own, as he gets cheered by the crowd and receives some energy.
Harley: Here comes the climax in the match.
Darren grabs Troy and sends him inside the ring and gets himself on the top of turnbuckle. As soon as Devereaux gets on his feet, Darren nails him with a flying cross-body in the air. Troy is now lying in the middle of the ring almost lifeless. Darren catches some breath and goes into the corner and starts motioning for Troy to get up for Act of Violence - Darren’s Spear to end the match.
Sara: Goodbye, Troy! But I will at least give you that you played well.
Troy slowly gets up on his feet as Darren keeps his eyes on him and finally nails Troy down with the Act of Violence. Before Darren could go for the pinfall a video starts playing in the Titantron which diverts Maddox’s attention toward the entrance ramp. The screen plays a scene where Adam Impact and Lycra are shown somewhere in a private room at the backstage where they’re standing close to each other and then proceed for a makeout. Darren babbles with swear language in his mouth, leaves the ring and starts walking toward the backstage.
Harley: Wait! What the hell!
George: Where the hell is he going?
Darren keeps walking as the referee yells at him from behind and then follows him and grabs his arm to stop him and make him realize that he is having a match. But Darren out of anger and frustration pulls his arm and pushes the referee and keeps walking toward the backstage as everybody in the arena starts wondering what actually happened. Troy Devereaux gets his full consciousness back and keeps staring at the ramp, opening his arms in wonder to know what happened to the match.
Sara: This seriously needs to get into the consideration of ICW Authorities. You can’t walk out of a match like that.
Harley: Specially when you’re just two steps away to reach the gold.
[COMMERCIAL BREAK]
Sara: We’re back live at Friday Night Thunder from Allstate Arena in Rosemount, Illinious. We will show you what we witnessed a couple of minutes ago.
The screen replays the scene where Darren Maddox first hits the spear to Troy Devereux but immediately got distracted by a small video package and leaves out for the match. At the backstage we see James Gibbs is arguing with the referee who was incharge in a match, he was surrounded by the other referees. After having some heat up argument James decides that he is gonna take care of the things himself.
[RING SIDE]
Tournament Barbedwire Massacre Match
Adam Impact vs. Chris Punk
"You think you know me," plays in the arena full of fans, as it becomes a huge moshpit as Metalingus announces the fact that Adam Impact is in the building. Adam comes up through the smoke wearing a black sweatshirt and jeans with wearing black rockstar shades.
Harley: Ladies and gentlemen this is our final of the semi-final qualifying matches tonight. The winner of this match will join the two other men in a Triple Threat match.
George: What do you mean by Triple Threat? We don’t even have a result from the previous match.
Sara: George is correct, Harley! Rom Youngblood is the only one that we know of who actually qualified the match.
There are some ICW staff and labours at the ringside that are having barbed wire with them that will replace the ring ropes after both of the contestants get inside the ring.
George: Woo woo woo!! What do I just see?
Sara: They’re barbed wires, George! What happened to you?
George: I am not talking about barbed wires, look who’s that at the ramp.
Adam Impact who almost approaches the ring and gets himself ready to slide inside is caught from behind by the back of his hairs and pants by Darren Maddox and forcefully sent inside the ring. Adam couldn’t realize what actually happened as Darren Maddox speeds up, gets in the ring and starts slapping, punching and kicking Impact with all his energy. Maddox takes Impact into the corner and continue assaulting him as Adam also tries to fight back and they both gets down on each other rolling inside the ring having a serious brawl.
George: Dog Fight!!!!! Forget about WrestleCade. Lets have this No Hold Barred match tonight.
Impact gets on the top of Maddox and starts punching him on the head with the anger in his eyes, but Maddox gets off of his hold and sits on Impact and now delivering the punches of his own. Chris Punk, Robert Saints and the Crow also come out and get themselves in the ring. The Crow and Robert Saints get their hands on Darren Maddox, takes him to the corner and start assaulting him with right and left fists and kicks while Chris Punk attacks Adam Impact and connects him with some hard punches.
Harley: Holy Mother! What the hell is going on here? What kind of match is this?
Dean Andry also start running from the ramp and gets inside the ring and attacks Punk Saints to save Maddox from their attacks as Adam Impact on the other side get his upper hand on Chris Punk and quickly runs for Darren Maddox and attacks him as Maddox also fights back.
Sara: What on earth is happening. Where are all the security?
James Gibbs comes out from the entrance and starts motioning with his hands for the rest of the rosters to come out as the whole locker room hits the ramp and gets inside the ring; Rom Youngblood, Ace Reigns, Jacob Remington, Andrew, Marco Rossi, The Enforcer, Jamo, Ridley, Troy Devereaux, Jackson Kent and some other superstars and the referee gets inside the ring and holds on to both Darren Maddox and Adam Impact and separates them.
James Gibbs: Hey!!! Enough! Enough!!!
Adam and Darren still trying to get hold on each other upper bodies and hairs but then rosters successfully separate them and take them in to the opposite corners.
James Gibbs: I said, ENOUGH!!!
James catches some breath and tries to get hold on his emotions.
James Gibbs: Darren Maddox, what authorize you to leave an official match like that huh? You are going to pay for this.
Camera zooms into Darren Maddox’s face as James Gibbs pauses for a while.
James Gibbs: .. And you… Adam Impact! You really like to play mind games, yeah? Well then let me inform both of you what I am actually capable to do. After tonight’s actions, you both are OUT OF THE TOURNAMENT.
George: What the HELL?!!!
Sara: Out of the Tournament?!!
James Gibbs pauses for a while as the ICW Security service arrives at the arena and gets their hands on Maddox and Impacts and put them in handcuffs as we some police officers there as well who put handcuffs on them and take both of the superstars with themselves, leaving the rest of the locker room inside the ring.
All of a sudden we see Jax Moore walking out to the ring with a serious expression on his face, as he climbs into the ring. The rest of the ICW Universe Roster is still in the ring, so he speaks.
Jax Moore: Other than these four individuals can leave the ring and head backstage...
Chris Punk, Floyd McCarver, Rom Youngblood and Troy Devereaux....
The rest of the roster climbs out of the ring and heads to the backstage area.
Jax Moore: Floyd, first I would like to address you. Earlier tonight James said it would be brought out what comes of you as far as this tournament, so I would like to address that. If I were the rest of you I would listen up.
Jax pauses speaking for a moment to look out at the crowd giving them a moment to react.
Jax Moore: First off the originally selected Triple Threat match, will no longer be contested as a Triple Threat, it will be a Fatal Four Way match... Between, you four superstars.
Sara Butler: What? A Fatal Four Way.
George Sullivan: No way!!
Harley Meisner: Yes way George.
Jax Moore: Floyd, in case you didn't catch that, YOU are indeed in the finals of the tournament. So good luck and enjoy. Now as you have noticed previously all of these tournament matches have been specialty matches. This has all lead up to ONE specific match for the finals.
George Sullivan: What type of match?
The fans can be heard screaming different types of matches, two of these being a Cage Match and Ladder Match.
Jax Moore: I heard two types that would happen to be very hot on topic. The match is known as a Dixieland Match, which consists of a hybrid steel cage and ladder match. The wrestlers start the match in the ring enclosed in a steel cage, to win the match a wrestler must first climb out of the cage, then go up the entrance ramp. There the World Heavyweight Championship will be hanging from the ceiling the object is to be the first to climb a ladder and get the belt down.
Jax lets what he just said sink in as he drops the microphone and leaves the ring heading towards the backstage area.
Sara Butler: That is all for tonight everyone, be sure to order WrestleCade from your local Television Company or watch on the ICW Network.
The show fades out with the four wrestlers still in the ring looking at each other as if they are about to start fighting right now instead of waiting for WrestleCade.
Marco Rossi vs Jackson Kent vs Jamo
We go to ringside where ICW's Ring Announcer Rick Henderson is standing in the ring, with microphone in hand.
Rick Henderson: Everyone we're ready for tonight's opening contest of tonight's Friday Night Thunder. The match is scheduled for one fall.
As the opening cords of Ace of Spades by Motorhead plays throughout the arena the camera begins panning around the crowd. However Jackson Kent is nowhere to be seen, not in the crowd, not in the entrance way, not anywhere.
Sara Butler: Oh no, not again, he can't be laid out by his mystery attacker again can he?
As if in answer to her question video footage begins playing of the attack, this time it begins a few minutes before the live footage had showed. As the man begins jumping Jackson he can't be made out, but all of a sudden he looks straight into one of the backstage cameras with a evil smile on his face. This specific video footage shows the attacker to be none other than....
Wait for it.....
KNIGHT BLAZE!!!
As we go back ringside once again the music changes to that of Back in Black by ACDC as James Gibbs makes his way out onto the entrance ramp.
James Gibbs: Everyone, good evening, glad you all could join us tonight, but I'm sorry to announce that this opening contest will not be happening. Marco Rossi, Jamo and Jackson Kent all 3 had flight issues that stopped them from being here tonight for this Friday Night Thunder show.
James looks as if he is about to walk off but turns back towards the ring.
James Gibbs: Also with the revelation of this new information that Knight Blaze is the attacker of Jackson Kent, at ICW's first PPV event WrestleCade, there will indeed be a match between Jackson Kent and his attacker Knight Blaze.
(The show goes to Darren Maddox standing backstage with his wife Lycra. There is tension between them after Adam Impact kissed Lycra last week.)
Lycra: Promise me you're not going to go after Adam tonight...
Darren Maddox: I'm sorry...but I can't promise you that.
Lycra: Get your anger in check Darren. DON'T go doing something stupid.
Darren Maddox: Going after Impact wouldn't be a stupid thing to do. In fact...it would be the RIGHT thing to do...
(Darren slowly walks away as Lycra watches him leave with much concern on her face. We now see their son Maverick Maddox walking up to Lycra. He stops to look up at her.)
Maverick Maddox: I'm worried about Dad...
Lycra: Yeah....So am I....
The show returns from commercials as the ending of What About Me? by Jim Johnston is playing over the arena as The Crow enters the ring and looks across the ring as Dark Tiger stands there glaring a hole through Crow.
The referee checks both men for illegal objects before asking for the bell to ring to start the match.
Tiger and Crow lock up into a test of strength with Tiger getting the upper hand turning the test of strength into a Belly to Belly Suplex as he throws Crow clear across the ring.
Crow gets back up to his feet and runs at Tiger and connects with the Dropkick. Tiger stumbles back up to his feet only to get caught with the Sling Blade from Crow.
Crow spins Tiger around and then grabs the legs of Tiger as he taunts to the crowd before connecting with the leg drop.
Harley Meisner: Crow has certainly came back after that beginning Belly to Belly Suplex from Tiger.
Sara Butler: Tiger really needs to regroup if he hopes to win this match against Crow.
George Sullivan: Tiger was just caught off guard is all but we'll see as the match continues.
Crow goes for the cover but only gets a long two count before Tiger gets his left foot on the bottom rope. Tiger makes it back up to his feet and then kicks Crow in the stomach doubling him over in pain before connecting with the Jacknife Powerbomb.
Tiger then grabs Crow by the hair picking him back up to his feet. The referee tells Tiger to let go of the hair or he'll get disqualified. Tiger can be heard shouting at the referee that he knows what he's doing and that the referee needs to remember his job.
Tiger Irish whips Crow against the ropes and upon his return he connects with the Bearhug.
Harley Meisner: Tiger has rebounded from earlier as he has connected with the Powerbomb.
Sara Butler: Crow is in a dire predicament right now as he's caught in the Bearhug by Tiger.
George Sullivan: Tiger is smart, he's using his strength to keep Crow from using his speed and high-flying abilities.
Tiger continues to put pressure on the lower back and spine area of Crow as the referee raises Crow's right arm and it drops.
Ref: One..........
The referee checks Crow's right arm the second time and it again drops to the side of his body.
Ref: Two.........
The referee checks the right arm of Crow a third time and it begins to drop so the referee starts to go and signal for the bell to ring to end the match but Crow springs to life and starts elbowing Tiger with his right elbow causing Tiger to break the grip of the Bearhug and last bit of energy in Crow as he hits a desperstion Jawbreaker.
Harley Meisner: I really thought Crow was a goner there courtesy of Tiger's Bearhug but Crow found a way out of it.
Sara Butler: This isn't Crow's first rodeo so he knows how to get back into the match in order to win.
George Sullivan: I would agree with you if the opponent didn't look so jacked up like Tiger, it's a hard come back for Crow right now.
Tiger exits the ring in order to collect himself but Crow doesn't allow this to happen for too long as Crow exits the ring and starts running on the barricade into a Flying Clothesline knocking down Tiger.
Crow tosses Tiger back into the ring and then climbs to the top rope and jumps off going for a Diving Elbow Drop but Tiger moves out of the way causing Crow to crash and burn on the mat.
Tiger goes for the cover but only gets a long two counts before Crow kicks out of the pin. Tiger transitions the pinning predicament into a side headlock onto Crow.
Harley Meisner: Crow might either tap out here or pass out from Tiger's Side Headlock.
Sara Butler: Crow is going to really have to rally if he wants to come back in this match.
George Sullivan: Tiger has that Side Headlock in deep as he has his forearm under Crow's throat making Crow have to really struggle for every breath the longer this hold is applied.
Crow starts to rally the fans up to cheer for him as he gets Tiger to the side of his body so then he can connect with the Sidewalk Slam forcing Tiger to break the Side Headlock.
Both men are down for a couple of minutes trying to regain their composure with Crow starting to move first.
Crow picks up Tiger and spins him around connecting with the Crow. Crow then rips off his shirt and throws it into the crowd before he makes his way to the top rope and connects with the Bowery.
Crow goes in for the cover on Tiger as the referee counts the three counts. The referee raises The Crow's arm to signify that he's won the match as Dark Tiger makes his way up the entrance ramp to the back.
Harley Meisner: Crow really preserved tonight during this match and as such he was able to walk out as the winner.
Sara Butler: Tiger had the right formula for success, he just couldn't get the correct percentages in order to pull out the win here tonight.
George Sullivan: Crow showed everyone including Tiger tonight that even though he might be Punk's kid brother, he can still bring the fight and even win a match without a distraction from Punk Saints or the Outsiders.
Crow continues to celebrate his victory in the ring as confetti and streamers start to fall from the rafters. Some of the confetti starts to stick to the back of Crow as he starts exiting the ring.
Rick Henderson: Here is your winner of the match...The Crow!!!
Crow now exits the ring and heads back up the entrance ramp as the show goes to a commercial break.
Floyd McCarver is shown outside James Gibbs's office, he knocks on the door and when he hears “Come in”, he opens the door and comes in.
James: Ah, Floyd, thanks a lot for coming.
Floyd: Thanks for inviting me, Mr. Gibbs, what can I do for you?
James: Please, call me James. Mr. Gibbs is my father.
Floyd: Thanks again, James.
James: I have been noticing that you haven't been your usual happy go lucky self, Floyd, is anything wrong?
Floyd: Well, things have been stressful at home, with the baby on the way, and Darren not wanting anything to do with me. Can't say that I haven't tried to make the best out of things, but sometimes it's hard to stay positive 100% of the time.
James: Well, don't worry about anything, if you need time off to be with Arianna, then that can be arranged. I know how important that is for the both of you. I also wanted to ask you how you felt about your time in ICW so far?
Floyd: Well, it hasn't been the greatest, I mean, so far I'm 0-3-1, I started slow at the old place too, but I feel I should be doing so much better.
James: We feel the same, I know you have greatness in you Floyd, so I want to tell you that your record may not be the greatest right now, that will be sure to change around once you get your footing. So don't worry about a thing as far as that is concerned. Now, your match with Robert Saints went to a draw. You will notice that Robert advanced to the semi-finals of the tournament for the World Heavyweight championship?
Floyd: Yeah, I did notice that, what exactly does that mean for me?
James: That I cannot tell you at this point, but all will be made clear by the end of this week's program. Just please, rest up, and get ready for next week's show. Be sure to make sure everything with Arianna is completely fine.
Floyd: Alright, sounds great, thanks for your time, Mr. G... I mean James.
James: You too, Floyd, great talking to you, see you soon.
Cameras fade on Floyd and James shaking hands with serious looks on their faces.
~Commercial Break~
Maxine Rush vs Destiny Hunter vs Katlyn Chase
We return from commercial break with Maxine Rush, Destiny Hunter and Katlyn Chase already in the ring ready for the match to begin. The referee calls for the bell to single the beginning of the match.
*Ding Ding*
As soon as the bell rings Maxine charges out of the corner connecting with a Spear on Destiny. Maxine gets Destiny to her feet before sending her running against the ropes, on Destiny's return Maxine hits a Japanese Arm Drag. Maxine then goes for a Big Boot on Katlyn, but Katlyn ducks under it before dropping Maxine with a Belly to Belly Suplex.
George Sullivan: Early momentum by Maxine, but it was quickly stopped by Katlyn.
Harley Meisner: Katlyn has been on fire as of late, tonight will be no different.
Sara Butler: With these three girls styles of wrestling this should be one heck of a match.
Katlyn gets Maxine to her feet before jumping into the air and coming down with a Standing Drop Kick. Destiny runs forward and drops Katlyn with a Bulldog. Destiny raises Katlyn to her feet before hitting a Diamond Cutter. Destiny goes up to the top rope and dives off for the Frog Splash, however at the very last second Katlyn is pulled out of the way by Maxine. Destiny crashes to the mat hard.
Sara Butler: Very hard landing by Destiny.
George Sullivan: If she needs a massage after the match, I would surely volunteer.
Harley Meisner: You're sick George.
George Sullivan: What? I didn't mean it that way Harley, get your mind out of the gutter.
Back to the action, Destiny has now rolled out of the ring to recover from her fall. Maxine and Katlyn are standing nose to nose staring each other down as neither backs away. All of a sudden Maxine delivers a Bitch Slap to Katlyn, Katlyn then returns one of her own. This goes on for a few times before Katlyn delivers a huge punch to the head of Maxine. Maxine charges at Katlyn only to be thrown up into the air and brought down with a Jacknife Powerbomb. Destiny is back into the ring now and Katlyn delivers a Sitout Jawbreaker.
Harley Meisner: Pretty fast passed match here by these three ladies.
Sara Butler: These ladies know how to entertain these fans.
George Sullivan: Especially Destiny Hunter, she's the fan favorite here tonight.
Destiny gets back to her feet and as Katlyn goes to kick her Destiny catches her leg. Destiny then flips Katlyn to the mat keeping a hold of the leg, but transitions it into the Ankle Lock. Katlyn begins struggling against the hold for a few moments until she uses her strength to flip Destiny off of her and to the mat hard. They both quickly get to their feet Katlyn a little quicker, she grabs Destiny and hits a Falling Neckbreaker. Maxine hits Katlyn with the Maximum Rush. She goes for the pin.

Destiny drops down onto Maxine breaking the count at only 2.
George Sullivan: Listen to these fans go crazy as Destiny keeps the match alive for herself.
Harley Meisner: These fans are crazy, this match should have been over.
Sara Butler: There is alot of fight left in all of these girls, this match continues.
Maxine starts arguing with the referee believing that she indeed had the 3 count and he had a slow count. But NO! He says it was only 2. While being distracted Katlyn runs forward and hits Maxine with a Running Knee Smash. Katlyn waits for her to get to her feet before hitting her with a KC-KO, Destiny charges at Katlyn only to be thrown out of the ring to the outside area. Katlyn then drops down hooking the leg of Maxine.

Rick Henderson: Here is your winner.... KATTTTTLYNNNN CHASSSSSSEEEEEE!!!
Tournament TLC Match
Rom Youngblood vs Robert Saints
Line in the Sand by Motorhead plays over the arena as Robert Saints and his wife Kelly Robinson make their way out to the entrance ramp as red pyro hits down the sides of the entrance ramp making it's way towards the ring.
Harley: Time for our first match of the semi-final round tonight.
Sara: That’s right! Robert Saints faces off Rom Youngblood in a TLC Match, right here, right now..
Robert Saints and his wife Kelly Robinson now make their way down the entrance ramp to the ring. Robert Saints bounces onto the ring apron and then enters between the top and middle ropes into the ring as Kelly Robinson stands up onto the ring apron and does her trademark split under the bottom rope and then Kelly Robinson exits the ring and waits in her husband's corner as Robert Saints waits for his opponent to come out.
Rick Henderson: The following contest is a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. There are no disqualifications, no count outs. The only way to win this match is by a pinfall or a submission. Approaching the ring from San Diego, California, weighing in at 245 pounds, accompanied by Kelly Robinson, ROBERT SAINTS!!!...
George: Remember that Saints is a fourth generation wrestler. Youngblood needs to take this match seriously.
Shine Forever hits the PA system as Rom comes walking out onto the stage. He starts walking down the ramp, ignoring the fans as he does so.
Rick Henderson: .. and his opponent from Toronto, Ontario, weighing in at 270 pounds, ROM YOUNGBLOOD!!!
After getting down to the ring he walks up the steps onto the apron. Rom climbs up onto the turnbuckle and poses there for a moment listening to the cheers from the fans.
Sara: Remember guys how this match actually survived the cage match the last Carnage after delivering a davistating spear in mid-air from the top rope.
He climbs down off the turnbuckle looking down at Robert Saints. Robert Saints walks up to Rom Youngblood with a cocky smile on his face and start talking trash over him. Rom without any delay nails Robert’s face with a jab as referee calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
George: O boy! Bad idea to provoke a shining star.
Rom keeps hitting the right and left from his fists to Robert until he completely throws his opponent out of the ring as the crowd cheers. Youngblood then gets outside the ring through the ropes where a table was already set up. He picks up Robert Saints and hits him with some right hands and then puts him on the table.
Harley: Remember ladies and gentleman there’s no disqualification in this match. That means Rom Youngblood can hurt his opponent however he wants tonight.
Sara: That’s right, and the winner of this match will head into WrestleCade for the World Championship match in a Triple Threat Match.
While Robert Saints was still lying on the table, his wife Kelly interferes and covers his body with herself and gets in a war of words with Rom Youngblood daring not to hurt her husband. Rom Youngblood looks around and then quickly grabs Kelly with her hair from the back to make her moveaway. In the meantime, Robert gets off of the table and gives a solid punch into the guts of Rom.
George: That’s called the protection guys. At Least he is better than Darren Maddox, Robert Saints knows how to protect his wife.
Harley: Speaking of Darren Maddox ladies and gentleman so he is also competing tonight against Troy Devereaux in a Fans Bring Weapons match.
Robert Saints nails some right hand on the back of Rom Youngblood and sends him inside the ring. He then bows and starts searching for some weapon underneath the ring. Robert comes back with approximately a 10 feet ladder and slides himself inside the ring alongside with that ladder. Robert grabs the ladder and sets it up into the corner. He then quickly gets his hand on Rom Youngblood and takes him to the opposite corner and quickly irish whips him where the ladder was standing but Rom Youngblood reverse the move and Robert Saints ends up eating his own medicine.
Sara: Have a nice day, Robert Saints.
Robert Saints fall down in pain all the way to the ground as Rom Youngblood quickly covers his body.

Two count fall!
Rom Youngblood then grabs Robert Saints and makes him stand up and quickly nails him with an uppercut as Robert falls on that ladder again landing on his back. Youngblood grabs the head of his opponent and rubs it on the first step of the ladder as referee starts asking him to quit the match but Robert refuses so. In the meantime, Kelly Robinson climbs on the apron and starts yelling at Rom Youngblood again to play fair and square. Rom diverts his attention to Robert’s wife and then complains the referee to not let her interfere in the match.
George: Is it the part of women rights that a wife can interfere in her husband’s match? That’s an unfair business.
Harley: She loves him, George! She would love to see her husband qualify for the finals.
Referee suggests Kelly Robinson to not get inside the ring or else she will end up hurting herself as she quickly gets off of the apron which diverts Youngblood’s attention back to his opponent, Robert Saints but only to be connected by a Devil's Kick from him. Robert quickly goes for the cover..

Kick out by Rom Youngblood. Robert Saints starts nailing some punches on Youngblood’s head in frustration and anger and goes for another cover but Rom Youngblood didn’t let the referee count for the second fall and quickly raised his shoulder up. Robert Saints then turns around and yells his wife to bring some chairs. Kelly Robinson grabs two chairs at a time and slides them inside the ring as Saints quickly gets his hands on one of the chairs and stomps it on the ground and provoke Youngblood to get on his feet.
Harley: Don’t turn around, Rom, you ain’t gonna like the scene.
As soon as Rom gets into his scenes after getting back on his feet, Robert Saints connects a davistating chairshot on his head as Rom Youngblood falls straight on his back. Robert Saints without any delay quickly runs and hooks up the leg of Rom..

Sara: WHAT?! .. He did it?
George: No, he didn’t.
Harley: How in the world does Rom Youngblood kickout of that headshot?
Robert Saints starts yelling and smashing his hands on the mat and gets in an argument with the referee that he is not making the proper count. Referee keeps on refusing and argues back as Saints grabs the referee from his shirt and take him to the corner to confront him.
Harley: Don’t hurt that man. He is doing his job, come on!
George: This referee is an agent, Harley. He must have been bribed by Youngblood.
Sara: What are you talking about?
Robert goes outside and comes back with a table from the outside and set it up in the ring. He then gets to opponent and starts hitting him with some right and left fists and make him lie on that table. Robert then grabs both of the chairs and puts one chair around his upper and the other around his lower body. In the meantime, Kelly Robinson also gets inside the ring and helps him setting up the ladder that was already lying in to the corner. Robert then tells Kelly to get near the table careful and hold on to the body of Rom Youngblood.
Sara: What is he gonna do?
Robert Saints quickly starts climbing that ladder and gets himself balanced at the top of the ladder. He then jumps from that ladder and with a splash of his own but Rom Youngblood quickly gets off the table alongside with Robert’s wife Kelly Robinson as nobody’s home for Saints as he falls down from the ladder right to the table on his stomach.
Harley: Goodnight, Saints!
George: Let me go and check on Kelly Robinson. She seems to get hurt.
Sara: She doesn’t. She moved away.
Taking the advantage of the free fall Rom Youngblood quickly gets to his opponent, gets him up unto his feet and locks his head between his thighs and motions for the finisher. He then lifts Saints up in the air and comes back with The Nightmare's Plunge. Rom quickly hooks up the leg of Robert Saints as the referee counts.

Harley: Absolutely Sara! As we’re still down for two more match epic matches here tonight. Darren Maddox faces off Troy Devereaux in Fans Bring The Weapons Match. While Chris Punk will be battling against Adam Impact in a Barbedwire Massacre.
George: I am excited. Whooo!!!
The screen replays the match details where Robert Saint connects Rom Youngblood with a steel chair shot and how he miraculously kicked out and proceeding with the Nightmare’s Plunge and a successful 3 count fall.
Fans Bring The Weapons Match
Darren Maddox vs Troy Devereaux
From the PA system the sound of "D.N.A" fills the arena as the lights dim down on the crowd but the stage illuminates with flashing lights.
Sara: Woo! Its time for our second last semi-final match.
Harley: That’s right and the winner will be heading straight in a Triple Threat match this Sunday at WrestleCade.
Through those lights comes Troy Devereaux onto the main stage with his movie star looks. With his shades and his signature t-shirt he walks down the ramp brushing his shoulders off. Taking a few steps up the steel stairs and he takes a minute to walk across the apron and proceed to the middle of it.
Rick Henderson: This is a Fans Bring The Weapons match and scheduled for one-fall. Approaching the ring, from Grover Beach, CA, weighing in at 202 pounds, Troy Devereaux!!!
Troy grabs his shades removing them from his face and placing them on his head with an egotistical smirk on his face.
George: This is what we call the ‘Future’.
Harley: Only if he defeats Darren Maddox tonight.
He mouths off to some of the fans before entering between the ropes. Once in the ring he stands in the middle and with a snap of his fingers a single spotlight shines down upon him as he throws his arms out and looks up. The spotlight fades as Troy lowers his head with a smile on his face. Brushing his shoulders off once more listening to the fans boo him he chuckled pacing his way around the ring awaiting his opponent.
Harley: Remember ladies and gentleman, Darren Maddox is in a psychological warfare with Adam Impact. I doubt if he will be 100% focused on his match tonight.
Sara: I agree, Harley.
"The Second Coming" by CFO starts to play around the arena and Darren Maddox comes walking out from the back and stands on the stage looking out at the fans who are cheering for him.
Sara: And here we go.. The Savior, Darren Maddox.
Rick Henderson: .. and his opponent from Chicago, IL, weighing in at 217 pounds, Darrenn Maddoooxx!!!
He makes his way down the ramp and climbs into the ring. He starts jumping up and down to pump himself up for the match. He keeps a serious expression. The ring is surrounded by the different kind of weapons that fans brought including some seriously damaging stuff, musical instrument and home decor stuff and even kitchen utensils.
George: Look at all the stuff over here. ICW arena appears like a wholesale market here. $1 each. SALE SALE SALE!!
The referee calls for the bell as both men circles around and proceed for the lockup. Troy had the upper advantage, twists Maddox’s left arm applying the force. He then twists it again and hits a punch in the kidney. Maddox tries to break the hold by shoving his arm at his opponent but Troy ducks and reverse the move and takes Maddox into the corner with an arm-drag. Troy starts choking on Darren and then nails his face with the right hand. He then steps back and looks around the crowd and gesture for awesomeness as crowd starts booing him.
Sara: Troy Devereaux is no doubt appeared as one of the dominating athlete in this industry so far.
Harley: Yes, and people do know that if Troy is taking a part in a competition then the sports entertainment is highly promised.
Troy comes back to Darren to deliver him a punch but Darren blocks the move and starts hitting some right hands of his own and takes Devereaux to the opposite corner and keeps hitting right and left fists on the face and to the stomach of his opponent and he falls down on his butt and crowd start cheering.
George: Come on, Darren be easy on him. He didn’t steal your wife.
Darren then irish whips Troy to the ropes and comes back with a clothesline, Troy gets up but receives another clothesline from Maddox, but he gets up again quickly and gets connected by a super Enziguiri. Troy falls down flat on his face as Maddox goes for the cover.
1…
Kickout by Troy Devereaux…
George: How can Maddox expect Troy to give up with just one swing kick? Use some weapons.
Darren Maddox looks around and then leaves the ring through the ropes and starts searching for something good from the stuff that is thrown around the ring. He keeps on searching for something and ends up picking an old fashioned computer keyboard. He grabs the keyboard with the wire, swings it and throws it inside the ring which hits directly to the head of Troy, ends up breaking some of its keys as Troy grabs his face in pain.
Harley: Hahaha! What a throw, guys.
George: He should be in the olympics.
Darren then starts searching for something interesting, meanwhile Troy gets up and grabs Darren from the back of his hairs from the ring but Darren comes back with a Fire Extinguisher and spray it at Devereax’s face. Troy again gets off and starts running around holding and rubbing his face and the upper part of his body.
George: 911! What’s your emergency? -- Troy Devereax is on fire.
The whole ring got filled with a smoky look for a few second as Troy quickly moves outside the ring and comes back at Darren Maddox from him without making him realize and connects an inverted backbreaker on him from behind. Troy then diverts his attention to the weapons brought by the fans. He slowly picks up a small box which was wrapped in a gift paper. He gets confused and wonders what is inside, starts ripping the packing off and finally opens the box as a small but hard plastic punch comes out of a sudden from that tiny box and hits the chin of Troy. Troy yells and then throws the box in the crowd and starts swearing at them as the people around him start laughing.
Sara: Haha! My God, these fans are funny. That was one heck of a funny thing.
George: Haha yes! I wonder what else we got in there.
Troy takes Darren on his feet and kicks him in the guts and then irish whips him to the corner (pole) of the ring as Maddox’s body collide with the iron post as he falls down, grabbing his left shoulder in pain. Devereax slides his right hand inside his pants and takes out a brass knuckle from it.
Harley: Wooo! That’s no less than a weapon, guys.
Sara: Troy can trusts what he brought, enough to knock Darren Maddox out.
Troy wears the brass knuckle in his head and yells Darren Maddox to get up. As soon as Darren gets up Troy nails him with a punch on his head that has brass knuckle on it but Maddox ducks and nails him with a super-kick to the jaw, but Troy Devereaux amazingly grabs the foot of Darren Maddox and twists it and locks him into an ankle lock outside the ring. As referee starts asking Maddox if he wants to give up. Darren screams in pain but at the sametime reject giving up for the match.
George: What a great reversal. I really can’t predict now who shall I choose as a winner of this match.
Troy keeps applying the pressure on Darren’s ankle but Darren keeps on refusing which makes Devereaux leaves Maddox foot but then quickly punches his back with the brass knuckle as Darren’s eyes go widely open and it seems he can’t breath. He curves his back and rolls his body as Troy gives him a quick elbow drop near the ring and hooks up the leg.

TWO COUNT! Sudden kickout by Darren Maddox. Troy Devereaux gets up and stomps his opponent with some kicks in the ribs and turns toward the announce table. He then quickly starts walking toward it and demands for the steel chair. He grabs Rick Henderson by his collar and pulls him away and comes back with a steel chair on which Henderson was sitting.
Sara: That’s not fair. He already has gotten so many weapons around him. Why picking up the chair?
Harley: Troy is smart, Sara. He doesn’t trust in what fans brought.
George: He should never trust this idiots. Even I don’t.
Dereveaux gets to his opponent and throws the chair down where Maddox was lying straight. He then quickly picks up Maddox on his shoulder and then raises his body up in the air holding him completely with both hands and hits Gorilla Press Slam as Darren body comes down hits his stomach where the chair was lying. Leaving him in an ultimate level of pain. Troy goes for the cover.

2 ½.. . Miraculous kickout by Darren Maddox as Troy Devereaux couldn’t believe his eyes, and asks the referee if it was really the two. He then grabs Darren Maddox by hairs and start hitting his forehead with the right fist again and again. He then gets Maddox again on his feet and locks him into a suplex but Darren blocks the move by wrapping his shin into the back of Troy’s leg and delivers a Suplex of his own, as he gets cheered by the crowd and receives some energy.
Harley: Here comes the climax in the match.
Darren grabs Troy and sends him inside the ring and gets himself on the top of turnbuckle. As soon as Devereaux gets on his feet, Darren nails him with a flying cross-body in the air. Troy is now lying in the middle of the ring almost lifeless. Darren catches some breath and goes into the corner and starts motioning for Troy to get up for Act of Violence - Darren’s Spear to end the match.
Sara: Goodbye, Troy! But I will at least give you that you played well.
Troy slowly gets up on his feet as Darren keeps his eyes on him and finally nails Troy down with the Act of Violence. Before Darren could go for the pinfall a video starts playing in the Titantron which diverts Maddox’s attention toward the entrance ramp. The screen plays a scene where Adam Impact and Lycra are shown somewhere in a private room at the backstage where they’re standing close to each other and then proceed for a makeout. Darren babbles with swear language in his mouth, leaves the ring and starts walking toward the backstage.
Harley: Wait! What the hell!
George: Where the hell is he going?
Darren keeps walking as the referee yells at him from behind and then follows him and grabs his arm to stop him and make him realize that he is having a match. But Darren out of anger and frustration pulls his arm and pushes the referee and keeps walking toward the backstage as everybody in the arena starts wondering what actually happened. Troy Devereaux gets his full consciousness back and keeps staring at the ramp, opening his arms in wonder to know what happened to the match.
Sara: This seriously needs to get into the consideration of ICW Authorities. You can’t walk out of a match like that.
Harley: Specially when you’re just two steps away to reach the gold.
[COMMERCIAL BREAK]
Sara: We’re back live at Friday Night Thunder from Allstate Arena in Rosemount, Illinious. We will show you what we witnessed a couple of minutes ago.
The screen replays the scene where Darren Maddox first hits the spear to Troy Devereux but immediately got distracted by a small video package and leaves out for the match. At the backstage we see James Gibbs is arguing with the referee who was incharge in a match, he was surrounded by the other referees. After having some heat up argument James decides that he is gonna take care of the things himself.
[RING SIDE]
Tournament Barbedwire Massacre Match
Adam Impact vs. Chris Punk
"You think you know me," plays in the arena full of fans, as it becomes a huge moshpit as Metalingus announces the fact that Adam Impact is in the building. Adam comes up through the smoke wearing a black sweatshirt and jeans with wearing black rockstar shades.
Harley: Ladies and gentlemen this is our final of the semi-final qualifying matches tonight. The winner of this match will join the two other men in a Triple Threat match.
George: What do you mean by Triple Threat? We don’t even have a result from the previous match.
Sara: George is correct, Harley! Rom Youngblood is the only one that we know of who actually qualified the match.
There are some ICW staff and labours at the ringside that are having barbed wire with them that will replace the ring ropes after both of the contestants get inside the ring.
George: Woo woo woo!! What do I just see?
Sara: They’re barbed wires, George! What happened to you?
George: I am not talking about barbed wires, look who’s that at the ramp.
Adam Impact who almost approaches the ring and gets himself ready to slide inside is caught from behind by the back of his hairs and pants by Darren Maddox and forcefully sent inside the ring. Adam couldn’t realize what actually happened as Darren Maddox speeds up, gets in the ring and starts slapping, punching and kicking Impact with all his energy. Maddox takes Impact into the corner and continue assaulting him as Adam also tries to fight back and they both gets down on each other rolling inside the ring having a serious brawl.
George: Dog Fight!!!!! Forget about WrestleCade. Lets have this No Hold Barred match tonight.
Impact gets on the top of Maddox and starts punching him on the head with the anger in his eyes, but Maddox gets off of his hold and sits on Impact and now delivering the punches of his own. Chris Punk, Robert Saints and the Crow also come out and get themselves in the ring. The Crow and Robert Saints get their hands on Darren Maddox, takes him to the corner and start assaulting him with right and left fists and kicks while Chris Punk attacks Adam Impact and connects him with some hard punches.
Harley: Holy Mother! What the hell is going on here? What kind of match is this?
Dean Andry also start running from the ramp and gets inside the ring and attacks Punk Saints to save Maddox from their attacks as Adam Impact on the other side get his upper hand on Chris Punk and quickly runs for Darren Maddox and attacks him as Maddox also fights back.
Sara: What on earth is happening. Where are all the security?
James Gibbs comes out from the entrance and starts motioning with his hands for the rest of the rosters to come out as the whole locker room hits the ramp and gets inside the ring; Rom Youngblood, Ace Reigns, Jacob Remington, Andrew, Marco Rossi, The Enforcer, Jamo, Ridley, Troy Devereaux, Jackson Kent and some other superstars and the referee gets inside the ring and holds on to both Darren Maddox and Adam Impact and separates them.
James Gibbs: Hey!!! Enough! Enough!!!
Adam and Darren still trying to get hold on each other upper bodies and hairs but then rosters successfully separate them and take them in to the opposite corners.
James Gibbs: I said, ENOUGH!!!
James catches some breath and tries to get hold on his emotions.
James Gibbs: Darren Maddox, what authorize you to leave an official match like that huh? You are going to pay for this.
Camera zooms into Darren Maddox’s face as James Gibbs pauses for a while.
James Gibbs: .. And you… Adam Impact! You really like to play mind games, yeah? Well then let me inform both of you what I am actually capable to do. After tonight’s actions, you both are OUT OF THE TOURNAMENT.
George: What the HELL?!!!
Sara: Out of the Tournament?!!
James Gibbs pauses for a while as the ICW Security service arrives at the arena and gets their hands on Maddox and Impacts and put them in handcuffs as we some police officers there as well who put handcuffs on them and take both of the superstars with themselves, leaving the rest of the locker room inside the ring.
All of a sudden we see Jax Moore walking out to the ring with a serious expression on his face, as he climbs into the ring. The rest of the ICW Universe Roster is still in the ring, so he speaks.
Jax Moore: Other than these four individuals can leave the ring and head backstage...
Chris Punk, Floyd McCarver, Rom Youngblood and Troy Devereaux....
The rest of the roster climbs out of the ring and heads to the backstage area.
Jax Moore: Floyd, first I would like to address you. Earlier tonight James said it would be brought out what comes of you as far as this tournament, so I would like to address that. If I were the rest of you I would listen up.
Jax pauses speaking for a moment to look out at the crowd giving them a moment to react.
Jax Moore: First off the originally selected Triple Threat match, will no longer be contested as a Triple Threat, it will be a Fatal Four Way match... Between, you four superstars.
Sara Butler: What? A Fatal Four Way.
George Sullivan: No way!!
Harley Meisner: Yes way George.
Jax Moore: Floyd, in case you didn't catch that, YOU are indeed in the finals of the tournament. So good luck and enjoy. Now as you have noticed previously all of these tournament matches have been specialty matches. This has all lead up to ONE specific match for the finals.
George Sullivan: What type of match?
The fans can be heard screaming different types of matches, two of these being a Cage Match and Ladder Match.
Jax Moore: I heard two types that would happen to be very hot on topic. The match is known as a Dixieland Match, which consists of a hybrid steel cage and ladder match. The wrestlers start the match in the ring enclosed in a steel cage, to win the match a wrestler must first climb out of the cage, then go up the entrance ramp. There the World Heavyweight Championship will be hanging from the ceiling the object is to be the first to climb a ladder and get the belt down.
Jax lets what he just said sink in as he drops the microphone and leaves the ring heading towards the backstage area.
Sara Butler: That is all for tonight everyone, be sure to order WrestleCade from your local Television Company or watch on the ICW Network.
The show fades out with the four wrestlers still in the ring looking at each other as if they are about to start fighting right now instead of waiting for WrestleCade.
