The show opens with a segment from the HeatWave pay per view from Hong Kong last week.

“Both men are lying on the mat. The crowd is on its feet, cheering on Magic. Both men get up as Wicked Ways walks down the rampway toward the ring.

Fortune: Why is he out here? Hasn't he already caused enough destruction by taking out each of the CHAOS THEORY (c) as well as Nathaniel Davis?

Hunt: Who is Wicked Ways going to help here as he doesn't give two sh!ts about either one of them!

Sincere beats Magic to the punch with several rapid rights. Whip by Sincere is reversed by Magic. Sincere comes off the ropes. Magic drops his head. Sincere capitalizes by quickly hooking Magic and nailing a gutwrench diving powerbomb. The crowd boos loudly. As Sincere notices Wicked Ways standing at ringside he turns to point at the masked monster. Magic grabs Sincere, whips him to the ropes, lifts him in a gorilla press and drops him down to the mat. Magic drops back with his blind elbow drop. The cover. The count by Senior Referee Richard Dark.

1 ... 2 ...

Fortune: Three! New World Champion! Magic wins the GZW World Title!

Hunt: No! Sincere why have you forsaken me!

Fortune: The GZW has a World Champion they can be proud of again and he is "The Desert Storm" Magic Fiery!

Magic stands victorious on the turnbuckle, holding his new World Championship belt high in the air as Sincere rolls out the ring. Magic stands before the world as its new champion. Hades, carrying the LightHeavyweight belt, Aqua, Fubu with the TV title in hand, Risky Gold with the Tag Team belts on, Team Smooth with Crystal make their way down the rampway led by Steph. Magic and Wicked Ways make eye contact as Ways easily steps over the guardrail and makes his departure through the crowd.

Fortune: The backstage is pouring out to show our new Champ much love and support on his victory! It has truly been a night of the good guys!

Hunt: I think I'm going to be sick!”

Explosions ignite throughout the GZW2K1 Coliseum signaling the start of the show known to wrestling fans as Monday Manslaughter. The camera scans the packed arena showing fans with various signs and posters. One sign reads,” Magic, something Wicked is coming your Way!!” Another sign states,” Vital Runner you have no Lance in Hell!!”

Fortune: We are just one week removed since the first pay per view held by GroundZero Wrestling! What a spectacular event it was as witnessed from the clip at the top of the show! Magic fulfilled his career goal by becoming the GZW World Heavyweight Champion by defeating Sincere!

Hunt: He beat Sincere all right, Kandi, but it was a tainted victory! If it wasn’t for Wicked Ways, Magic would be still in Hong Kong trying to check out of the I.C.U.!

Fortune: Not only did we witness the crowning of a new Heavyweight Champion but the four other titles changed hands as well! It seems that a breathe of fresh air was blown into the GZW at HeatWave!

Hunt: I can’t believe all these goody goodies are parading around with the titles! But at least Nathaniel Davis lost his Intercontinental title to Wicked Ways!

Fortune: Speaking of the Intercontinental Champion, in a Triple Threat match, the “Entertainment Franchise” and Wicked Ways will be pitted against each other as well as “Smooth Operator” Billy Bond!

Hunt: “The Prince of Dunghans” is getting a title shot? What in the hell is going on with the Booking Committee? Smooth has been gone for more than a month, comes back, and gets a Intercontinental title shot? A shot I remind you that gives the holder a sure Heavyweight Championship title shot!

Fortune: I suppose the Committee feels that Smooth has earned his shot! Besides, it was Wicked Ways that caused Smooth to miss his time in the ring! For all we know, Smooth might have been the Heavyweight Champion by now!

Hunt: Kandi, face reality! He’s with Crystal!

Fortune: Anyway, our main event tonight should be worthwhile as Magic will be making his first title defense against his longtime friend and two- time Heavyweight Champion, “The Enforcer” T-Rex!

Hunt: You must not watch a lot of GZW Television, because Wicked Ways has been all over the airwaves talking about how this match is not going to take place at all!

Fortune: That remains to be seen, Alex!

---Investigation continues---

[Firefly and Celestia are talking over a coffee in the staff canteen. Staff members are sat with coffees, but there are no other wrestlers at present.]

Lez:So who's been eliminated from your investigation Sho?"

FF:"Well you for a start because you were with me in Hong Kong when it happened. Then I've got alibis for Billy Bond, Crystal, Basildon, Nathaniel Davis and Pimp. Also, from the damage of the blow, the Doctor estimates that no-one under 200 lbs could have done that kind of damage. That excludes pretty much all the backstage crew, the commentators, and reporters."

Lez:"What makes you so sure that it's a wrestler from GZW that did it?"

FF:"Come on Lez, who else apart from a wrestler would smash someone through a table and the hit them with a chair?"

Lez:"Good point Murakame, you're right. You really reckon it's UJ?"

FF:"I'm not sure that even UJ could be that evil... but who else would even consider it? UJ has no alibi, so he's prime suspect, but I am going to make sure that everyone on the roster gives me an alibi!"

[Zeke walks past, in his own little world.]

Lez:"There's someone you haven't asked!"

FF:"Yeah... hey Zeke! Wait up!"

[FF gets up and runs to catch up with Zeke. Zeke looks at him with a blank look.]

FF:"Zeke, I'm asking everyone this... where were you the night my mother was attacked?"

Zeke:"Is your mum Marjorie Doors? I know a song about her! See Saw; Marjorie Doors..."

FF:"Um, no she's not! Mrs. Murakame. You know the little lady with the brick in the handbag?"

[Zeke looks around suspiciously then grabs FF threateningly.]

Zeke:"Bag? BAG! What's in the bag? I'm gonna find out what's in the bag! Hey Lenny show me what's in your bag! Hey! You're not the Lizard!!!"

FF:"No, I'm the Firefly ... um ... where were you the night my mother was attacked?"

[Zeke grabs FF's hand momentarily, then runs off shouting.]

Zeke:"I'm gonna get into that bag Lenny, and whatever is in there is gonna get hurt! I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves. I know a song that'll get on your nerves, get, get, get on your nerves..."

[FF looks perplexed, but then looks down into his hand. Zeke has passed him a business card! The card reads:

C. MOORE-CLEARLY

PSYCHOLOGIST

Est: 1990]

FF:"I think I need a word with Mr. Moore-Clearly... but not as much as Zeke does!"

[FF returns to Lez who has been watching in awe.]

Lez:"Man ... and people think a woman shaving her head is odd!"

---Freak Mauler vs. “Career Killer” Maxx Steele---

Freak Mauler comes out of the communal dressing room looking to complete a successful night. He makes his way to the entranceway when suddenly out from the shadows ...

Fortune: It's Maxx Steele!

Hunt: Is it me or is Cartoon Man starting to get a bad attitude?

Steel grabs Freak from behind slamming him down to the concrete. Steele stomps away on Freak repeatedly, showing no mercy.

Hunt: Maxx Steele is finally earning my respect!

A few referees hit the scene trying to break up the attack, but Steele just scoops up a nearby referee and slams him on top of the fallen Freak.

Fortune: Holy Jazmin Andrea! He's using a referee as a weapon!

Steele lifts up Freak and scoop slams him down to the concrete next to some metal crates. Steele then pulls a crate over and the crate comes crashing down onto Freak's legs. Freak Mauler lets out a painful howl.

Fortune: Ohmigosh! Maxx Steele has really stepped over the line!

Hunt: Hell, Steele has just erased the line and redrew a whole new one!

EMTs rush to help the fallen Freak as Steele steps back, a satisfied smirk on his face.

---Non-sanctioned match---

Back at ringside, the silence is broken by a downward drumbeat that kicks into "The Private Psychedelic Reel" by the Chemical Brothers.

Kandi:"That's Celestia L'yark's music! She's not scheduled to be on the card tonight!"

Hunt:"She wasn't scheduled last Thursday when she assaulted UJ!"

Celestia, in her Arabian clothing comes out of the entranceway to a moderate cheer despite her being new to the fed. Not very many fans like UJ it seems ... She has a piece of paper in her hand, and appears to be in quite a determined mood. She strides to the ring with a purpose, but then softens and starts doing a few hand slaps. She gets into the ring, takes off her veil and headscarf, and motions for her music to be cut. She brandishes the piece of paper: it's her contract.

Lez:"I signed my contract for GZW thinking I could show the world my skills ...and I got screwed! My agent gives me the contract, and to my shame, I signed it without reading it. Little tip for all of you out there, look before you leap! Check everything you sign! I didn't..."

She holds out the contract and reads from it.

Lez:"Ms. Celestia L'yark, the undersigned, will provide service for GZW Entertainment, in the role of a valet for 'Firefly' Sho Murakame."

She scrunches it up in her hand.

Lez:"Valet for Sho? For a start of I think I'm the last person he wants as a valet... and damnit I came her to wrestle, not look pretty! I want one of you corporate punks to come out here, rip this contract up, and give me a real one!"

She gestures for a chair to be thrown, and a folding chair is thrown to her. She unfolds it, and sits down.

Lez:"And I'm not going anywhere 'til you do!"

She sits there momentarily, but it isn't a member of the corporate team that comes out! The raw guitar, followed by the heavy bass of "Breathe" by the Prodigy blares over the PA. The crowd erupt into a huge boo! Lez stands up, showing no fear as UJ strides onto the Zero-tron. He is wearing his wrestling attire and has a microphone.

UJ:"Hey Moonslut! I don't give a rat's ass about your pathetic contract! You and me have unfinished business! So what your contract says you can't fight! That's just an excuse to run away from a match with the British Butcher!"

Lez:"Well I'm not going anywhere!"

UJ:"Right, you and me in this ring! I'll get me a ref that'll ref for us... I know the exact man for the job!"

With Celestia still in the ring, UJ heads to the announce table. Celestia removes her flowing Arabian outfit to reveal a matching (fake) leopard skin top and hot pants.

Kandi:"I've got an idea of who he means Alex!"

Alex:"Oh no!"

And that's the last thing Alex says before he's yanked out of his chair and rolled into the ring by UJ. UJ follows him into the ring, and Alex signals for the bell to be rung!

Kandi:"Oh my! We've got a match here... and GZW doesn't sanction women to wrestle! This is not an official match folks!"

UJ runs at Lez, who throws him high with a hip toss. She grabs the chair she was sat on, and goes straight for an Arabian legdrop! But UJ rolls out the way!

Kandi:"That was a crazy move by Mooncat! If she have hit it, that Arabian legdrop would have cost her the match by a disqualification!"

With Lez on the floor in pain, Hunt gets the chair and tosses it out the ring. UJ pulls up Lez and sends her into the ropes with an Irish whip, then hits a back body drop. Lez gets up quickly, but is immediately taken back down with a clothesline. He hits a legdrop and goes for the pin.

Kandi:"An early pin attempt from UJ!"

1...

2...

Kickout! UJ gets up and delivers an elbowdrop. Pulling her up once more, he sends Lez into the turnbuckle with an Irish whip. He runs in, and gets a boot in the face. As he staggers back, Lez jumps onto the top turnbuckle and jumps onto his shoulders to deliver a hurancanrada!

Kandi:"Holy Jazmin Andrea! Firefly couldn't have done that any better!"

Lez hooks the legs.

1...

2...

Kickout!

Kandi:"A nice move from Mooncat, but not enough damage beforehand to keep a man as tough as Union Jack down."

Mooncat pulls up UJ, but receives a thumb to the eye. Once again, he Irish whips her into the ropes, but she counters with a handstand that bounces her off the ropes: the momentum sending her flying back with a big elbow to UJ's face (think Tajiri). UJ rolls to the outside for a breather.

Kandi:"Looks like this match is going to be harder for UJ than he thought!"

UJ heads back to the ring... but then grabs Lez's foot and pulls her to the outside. Alex tries lamely to chastise UJ, but gets ignored. UJ scoops up Lez for a slam to the mats outside the ring.

Kandi:"Ouch! UJ was being outwrestles in the ring, so he has to get dirty outside the ring!"

UJ pulls up Lez, and sends her crashing into the ring steps. She slumps against them, breathing heavily. He gets back in the ring, and urges Alex to count.

1...

2...

3...

Kandi:"Come on Mooncat! Get up! You've got to beat that evil bastard!"

4...

Lez is starting to slowly get up.

5...

6...

She's up.

7...

She attempts to get back in the ring but is met by a baseball slide from UJ which sends her crashing into the barricade. As she staggers back to the ring, but UJ baseball slides again, and back she goes crashing into the barricade. As Lez slumps, UJ taunts the fans.

Kandi:"What really annoys me about Union Jack is that he IS good at what he does. Those baseball slides have obviously taken a lot out of the Mooncat."

Lez slowly gets up again, and UJ goes for another baseball slide, but she sidesteps him and grabs him around the waist. Pulling him away from the apron, she then delivers what can only be described as a reverse sidewalk slam to UJ outside the ring!

Kandi:"Ouch! What innovative offence from Mooncat."

Lez gets in the ring and raises her arms. The crowd, who are warming to her spirit, cheer relatively loudly. Unlike UJ, she lets him get in the ring when he finally gets up, and rolls back in. He swings at Lez, who ducks and grabs him around the neck for a...

Kandi:"Cat Nap! [Million Dollar Dream] Mooncat calls that the Cat Nap! This could be goodnight for Union Jack!"

UJ, the move scouted, charges backwards crashing Lez into the turnbuckle. She relinquishes the hold, and he turns around with a big right hand that knocks her down to a sitting position, and then proceeds to stomp and stomp on her in the corner. Alex plucks up some courage and pulls UJ away. UJ glares at him but does nothing. He then pulls Lez out of the corner and delivers three crisp, perfectly performed, rolling vertical suplexes.

Kandi:"However evil the man is, you can't argue with that ability."

UJ goes for the pin.

1...

2...

Kandi:"This could be it!"

thr... NO!

Lez kicks out at the very last second! UJ looks shocked, and starts to bully Alex. Lez gets to her feet, and begins to stalk UJ behind his back. UJ finally turns around and gets met by an almighty spear!

Kandi:"Pin him Mooncat! Pin him!"

But Lez doesn't go for the pin, instead, she ascends the turnbuckle at the opposite side of the ring.

Kandi:"What the hell is she doing? Surely she can't reach him that far away?"

Mooncat draws her fingers across her throat.

Kandi:"She's going to go for it!"

With an almighty leap, Celestia launches herself from the turnbuckle with a Cat Splash (5 Star Frog Splash). She does indeed clear two thirds of the ring, with the beautifully executed move, but...

Kandi:"UJ's knees were up! Oh Sweet Jasmin Andrea! UJ's knees were up! Damn! Damn! Damn!"

The crowd groans with Celestia as she rolls off UJ clutching her stomach. UJ gets up, and puts her head between his legs. He grabs the double underhook, and plants her with a picture perfect Jack Hammer. He quickly rolls her over, and hooks the leg.

1...

2...

Kandi:"There's no way anyone can kick out of a Jack Hammer!"

3...

DING DING DING!

Kandi:"Damn! Just like that! UJ can hit that Jack Hammer any time, and it'll be all over whoever you are. Mooncat made one little mistake, going for the high risk finisher, and UJ punishes her to get the 1, 2, 3!"

"Breathe" by the Prodigy plays again, and UJ rolls out of the ring, while Lez is still laid there. He grabs the steel chair that was outside the ring and gets back in. Alex puts his hands up and shakes his head trying to stop him, but just gets shoved out the way. UJ pulls the chair back and brings it crashing down on Celestia's prone body.

Kandi:"NO! Stop it! The match is over! Stop it!"

UJ brings it down again twice more. Then smiles nastily, he flicks off the fans, and then hits her with an Arabian legdrop!!!

Kandi:"UJ is sick! Assaulting Mooncat after the match, and then he has the audacity to mimic her move! Well UJ, yours wasn't as good as hers is!"

UJ pulls the chair back again, when suddenly: "I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE AND I BRING YOU... FIRE!" Firefly comes running from the back with a Singapore cane.

Kandi:"It's Firefly! He's come to save his friend, and supposed valet!"

FF slides into the ring, but UJ high tails it. Firefly leans over the ropes and swings the cane at him, but misses. UJ flicks him off and heads back up the ramp. FF goes to Lez, and helps her up gently. She pushes him away, and stands up herself. Barely conscious, Mooncat staggers up the rampway with FF following her as "The Private Psychedelic Reel" plays.

Kandi:"Well if Celestia didn't just prove she can mix it up with the men, I don't know what will. I can just tell that she will fight until she gets a real contract! That woman isn't just a valet!"

---Arriving at the Coliseum---

Fortune: Glad to have you back at the broadcast table, Alex!

Hunt: Why in the hell did that crazy bastard pick me? I’m not my uncle! There is no need for me to be bullied about!

Fortune: Now you get to see what I had to deal with years ago! It seems that Diamond Sledge is just arriving to the Coliseum!

Diamond, one half of the Tag Team Champions, Risky Gold, is seen arriving to the Coliseum. He stops to talk to a few backstage workers. They tell him that Epic, his partner, had already arrived. Diamond goes on his way to the locker room area, but suddenly, out from the shadows...

Fortune: It's Elijah Threatt! Diamond was set to fight Threatt tonight in singles action!

Hunt: Damn, I'm going to miss Diamond!!

Threatt stomps away on Diamond on the concrete floor. Threatt then grabs a nearby stagelight and smashes it in the face of the Tag Champion.

Hunt: How's them apples? Garbage Boy won't be picking up any females with that pretty face anymore!

Threatt then locks in his dreaded Mass Casuality (torture rack) on Diamond.

Fortune: Ohmigosh! He's going to break his back!

Officials and referees hit the scene. They try to pull off the Bad Company member, but to no avail.

Fortune: Threatt is holding onto Diamond, pulling down and snapping his back! What kind of monster is he?

Hunt: Hell, need you ask that question! He hangs with Wicked Ways!

After having satisfied his hunger for inflicting pain, Threatt releases the Mass Casuality and then nonchalantly walks away.

Fortune: Threatt is showing Risky Gold that they are serious about regaining the Tag Team titles!

Hunt: I believe them!

---The Collective---

There is a knock on the door and the words “Come in” are heard. Jason ArcAngel walks into the dressing room of Nathaniel “Entertainment Franchise” Davis. ArcAngel surveys the room which is completely dark except the light which is illuminating from the television monitor which is broadcasting tonight’s Manslaughter. Davis is slouched on the couch dressed in his wrestling gear watching the show.

ArcAngel: (standing behind him) Longtime no see, Champ.

Davis pays no attention to him, but continues watching the television.

ArcAngel: (taking a seat in the loveseat next to the couch) What is going on, Nathaniel? This isn’t you, this isn’t what we envisioned years ago! I know he is your brother-in-law and it is good that the two of you have put your animosities aside, but attacking Pimp Bizkit, then Union Jack with chair shots, and finally laying out Wicked Ways with a sledgehammer of all things! Talk to me!!

Davis: (not looking at him) Things have changed, Jay. Times have changed. In order for the NEW AGE © to be effect I had to adapt to the mentality of these younger wrestlers. I realized that all the years Scrapper (Davis’ nickname for Samuel Knight) was preaching about fighting fire with fire, he was right. I am the “Entertainment Franchise”, Jay. I have to defend this fed from evils within and without.

ArcAngel: No, Nathaniel. Not this way! All those years in the first GZW, I didn’t sacrifice myself, my body, my soul for you to go out like this. We are bigger than that. We are bigger than wrestling. (he gets in the face of Davis) I returned for one purpose and one purpose only, Nathaniel. I’m going to avenge the injuries caused to our friend, our brother, Samuel Knight. After I am through with Soul Shaker, win, lose, or draw I am gone. The dream has ran its course for me. You are the last one left. Do the right thing.

ArcAngel walks out of the dressing room, leaving Davis alone staring at the television.

---Lance Hell vs. Vital Runner---

Fortune: Our second match will pit Freak Mauler’s tag team partner, Lance Hell, against the very unknown newcomer, Vital Runner!

Hunt: Where should I begin? Both of these losers took a beating at HeatWave, so it is only natural for them to be fighting each other!

Lance Hell makes his way down to his theme music. He walks with a purpose and a serious look on his face. The crowd gives him a mixed reaction.

Vital Runner comes down the rampway to the tune of his intro music. This is the only sound heard in the Coliseum as the fans really have no idea who this GZW wrestler is.

Hunt: Kandi, tell me something!

Fortune: What is that Alex?

Hunt: What in the hell is a “Vital Runner?”

Runner slides into the ring as Ref Donald Fey calls for the bell. Lance stomps the crap out of Runner. Lance with a series of right hands to the head. Whip by Lance. Runner comes off the ropes. Lance drops him with a back elbow to the face. Lance lifts up Runner and takes him down with a crisp snap suplex.

Fortune: Lance Hell is really on his game tonight!

Hunt: He is showing the GZW Booking Committee what Lance Hell is all about!

Lance lifts up Runner to his feet. Lance holds Runner and looks to the crowd, he drops Runner with a Russian leg sweep. Lance signals for the end of the match. Climbing to the top turnbuckle, he waits as Runner slowly gets to his feet. When he does, Lance leaps, hooks Runner’s head in midair, turns and connects with a flying tornado DDT.

Fortune: This should do it! The cover!

1 …2 …

Fortune: No! Lance Hell lifted Vital Runner back up! He is not done yet!

Hunt: He has a message for the entire GZW!

Lance lifts up Runner and drives him to the mat with a gutwrench diving powerbomb (Test’s powerbomb). Lance then picks up Runner and hits Stab From Hell. (clothesline then gets behind opponent putting them in a sleeper hold followed by a full nelson slam)

Fortune: This is academic!

1 … 2 …

Fortune: Three! This one is mercifully over as Lance Hell wins it! He controlled this match from the opening bell!

Hunt: He is out to show that he is not to be overlooked in the GZW!

---Commercial Break---

[Smooth and Crystal are sat in a nicely decorated restaurant on a candlelit table for two. There is a background of chatting and a piano playing. Crystal leans over to him.]

Crystal:"Do you have any..."

Smooth:"PROTECTION? YES I DO!"

[The piano stops abrupty with a wrong note, and the people suddenly stop talking. Smooth reaches into his coat and produces a box of...]

Smooth:"Arm and Hammer PM! Reduces plaque acid! Which I'm sure you'll agree..."

[Crystal bursts out laughing.]

Crystal:"Billy, you fool! I can't believe you just did that!"

[Smooth is laughing as well now.]

Smooth:"Isn't that advert the absolute pits?"

Crystal:"Yeah... I just can't believe you actually went to the trouble to get that tube of toothpaste though, you fool!"

[The scene fades with people still staring at Smooth and Crystal as they hold hands across the table and laugh together.]

---Backstage with Pimp---

(Pimp is walking down the corridor at GZW Monday Manslaughter and a bag over his shoulder, as he walks down the corridor he is passing many of the GZW superstars locker rooms, and he is talking to himself

Pimp: have you seen the bloody card for tonight, I am not even on the card, the audacity of this booking commity!

(Pimp scans through a little more of the card)

Pimp: they have even given an Intercontinental championship match to Smooth, I carried his ass back when we were E.S.P, and now he’s given the Intercontinental Championship!, why not me I’m well better than that jackass

(Pimp then passes Smooths locker room, and it has “Smooth’s Locker room! printed on the front of the door, he stops just past the door, he turns back, with a smile on his face)

Pimp: and now time for some revenge

(Pimp, puts his bag down, and opens it to reveal some brown paint, he opens the paint, and checks the colouring)

Pimp: yes exactly the right colouring!

(Pimp, then pulls out a thick paintbrush, dips it into the paint, and with one stroke of paint covers the S, he then does it again but this time he covers an O)

Pimp: hehehe!

(Pimp stands back to admire his work, and the camera zooms in on the lettering mo th’s locker room, then the scene begins to fade)

Hunt: Hehee! The moth is getting what’s coming to him!

Kandi: Smooth isn’t going to like that! Pimp is going to have hell to pay for this sleezy trick!

Hunt: Thats my man Pimp!

---Joseph “Lost Soul” Synger vs. Epic---

Fortune: Up next, we will see Joseph "Lost Soul" Synger take on the other half of the Tag Team Champions, Epic! We already witnessed the attack by Elijah Threatt on Epic's partner, Diamond, at the top of the show!

Joseph Synger enters the ring as the fans boo him. Synger looks around at the crowd with a disgusted look.

The fans erupt as Epic makes his entrance. Synger runs out to the aisle to meet the fan favorite.

Fortune: Synger is taking the fight to Epic in the aisle!

The two men brawl up the ramp and onto the stage. Synger slams Epic's head into a steel post on the stage. Joseph Synger looks to the booing crowd. Synger goes for a vertical suplex on the stage, but Epic blocks it, then reverses it.

Fortune: Epic with a vertical suplex on the stage! Synger's back meets the cold steel!

The fans cheer as Epic lifts Synger up to his feet. The Tag Champion drags Synger down the ramp and back towards the ring. Epic rolls Synger into the ring.

Fortune: Both men are finally back in the ring and the match has officially started!

Epic lifts Synger up to his feet. Epic with Coliseum shaking right hands to the crazy head of the Synger. Irish whip by Epic. Synger off the ropes. Epic catches him. Belly to belly suplex by Epic

Hunt: Come on "Lost Soul"!

Synger slowly gets up to his feet. Epic moves in, kicks him in the midsection, hooks his arms and drops him with a double underhook powerbomb (tiger driver). The cover by Epic.The count by Referee Donald Fey.

1 ... 2 ...

Fortune: No! Synger kicks out!

Epic lifts Synger back up to his feet. Epic hammers away with punches in the corner. Epic Irish whips Synger across the ring to the opposite corner. Epic charges in for a spear in the corner, but Joseph Synger sidesteps him. Epic crashes shoulder first into the steel post.

Fortune: Holy Jazmin Andrea! Epic may have dislocated AND broken his shoulder on that missed spear!

Synger moves behind Epic, hooks him and then drops him with a belly to back suplex. Synger then looks to the booing crowd. Synger waits for Epic to get up to his feet. He moves in behind the Tag Champion ...

Fortune: Joseph Synger locks in a katahijime (tazzmission)!

Hunt: That's it! Make his Risky Gold @ss tap out!

Epic breaks out of the hold with a back kick to the groin. With the hold broken and Synger stunned, Epic bounces off the ropes and drops him with a forearm smash. Synger slowly gets up near the ropes. Epic charges and clotheslines him out of the ring.

Fortune: Out goes Synger! He hits the floor hard! But look! Out from the crowd! It's Freak Mauler!

Hunt: What is he doing out here? He was already beaten by Maxx Steele tonight!

Freak Mauler, with a baseball bat beats down Synger at ringside. Ref Fey calls for the bell to the end the match.

Fortune: I guess Joseph Synger wins the match by DQ!

Hunt: If winning means getting pummeled with a bat by Freak Mauler, I'd be happy to lose anytime!

As Epic stands in the ring confused by the attack at ringside, another man makes his presence felt.

Fortune: Lance Hell is running down to the ring! He is Freak Mauler's tag team partner and just finished destroying Vital Runner!

Hunt: I guess these guys feel they don't get enough airtime!

Lance Hell slides into the ring and blindsides Epic with a clothesline from behind.

Fortune: Lance Hell attacks Epic from behind! Freak Mauler is beating down Joseph Synger! This is chaos!

Lance applies his Stab From Hell on Epic in the center of the ring as Ref Fey tries in vain to break the hold.

Fortune: We've lost all control!

Hunt: I think I like it!!!

---LightHeavyweight Title Match: Len “The Lizard” DeBreay vs. Hades---

Fortune: Our next match will be the first title defense for the LightHeavyweight Champion, Hades, against on of the latest newcomers to the GZW, Len “The Lizard” DeBreay!

Hunt: That stupid idiotic punk that carries the tadpole in a bag!

Fortune: I wouldn’t consider snappy as a tadpole! A baby alligator, but an alligator none the less!

Hunt: Look! It seems those two pukes have started this match already!

Len and Hades are coming down the rampway, going at it, tooth and nail. Neither man gaining any advantage. Both men reach the ring and slide in. Len gets the advantage with a rake to the eyes. Len takes Hades with an armdrag into a writslock. Len drops repeated elbows to Hade’s arm. Len cranks on the arm and then goes for a crescent kick, but Hades ducks it and hits a dropkick. Hades follows up with a hiptoss on Len. Irish whip by the defending L.H. Champ followed by a spinning back elbow.

Fortune: The fans are really behind the LightHeavyweight Champ! Our ratings have been through the roof ever since his win at Heatwave!
