6CW BORN IN FIRE X - LIVE RESULTS (8th November 2020)

A video begins to play, a long stretch of road can be seen, tumbleweed blows across the road as a solitary car flashes by. Dusts settles back on the highway as a sound begins to play, the camera swings round as AC/DC’s ‘Highway to Hell’ can be heard. The camera zooms in on the front of a car, badly painted in what appears to be camouflage. The word ‘KANT’ sprawled across the bonnet in black letters. The camera zooms out to show a beaten up old army truck, driven by Xeres as Zakky Spencer stands in the back of the truck, clutching a giant Nerf gun pretending it’s a rocket launcher. Clarke James and Marshall Murdoch are stood either side of Zakky, shaking their heads….

CJ: I’m sorry man, this was the best I could do….

Marshall shrugs…

CJ: Look, it’s budget cuts! What do you want me to do, pay for it out of Church funds?

‘Highway to Hell’ begins to fade out and Vlad changes over the 8 track as Zakky pretends to make gun sounds to the annoyance of Marshall who slaps him over the head causing Zakky to fire a foam bullet in front of a startled Vlad…

CJ: Will you be careful with that, you could’ve killed him!

Marshall shakes his head as James berates Zakky….

MM: 'And you only got foam bullets? What good are they in an emergency?'

ZS: 'It was all they had left in the props department.'

MM: 'If you want something doing properly... anyway we need a plan of action'

(Marshall dramatically pulls a large map of 6CW headquarters and lays it out on the truck floor before over exaggeratedly pointing at various rooms )

MM (aside to CJ): 'I've always wanted to do that'

(Clarke rolls his eyes but Marshall carries on regardless)

MM: 'Rights gents, we need a plan of action - as a wise man once said 'fail to plan and you plan to fail', I think it might have been Gandhi actually and he knows about this sort of thing, so we need something foolproof, and lets face it with you lot it needs to be foolproof

(Marshall looks around and Zakky and Vlad nod in agreement)

MM: Right it's not the most tightly secured area, so I think we can just smash the front doors in

CJ: 'Euphemism?'

MM: 'Actually no, its the best I could come up with at such short notice, unless you've got a better idea?'

Vlad: PERMISSION TO SPEAK FREELY, SIR!

Marshall and Clarke look stunned as Vlad shouts at the top of his voice...

CJ: At ease, soldier, what is it?

Vlad: I have an idea....

MM: Go on?

Vlad: We ring the bell.

Marshall and Clarke stare in bemusement....

CJ: Have you been out in the sun too long, soldier?

MM: Clarke...

CJ: Yes, Sergeant?

MM: You're not really in the army...

CJ: Oh.....

MM: He's not really a soldier...

CJ: I see...

MM: I'm not a soldier.

CJ: Uh-huh! Anyway, moving on swiftly, i say we skip the front, and pile are way in through the back door....

MM: Eu....

CJ: That way we can slide in, completely undetected. Ease ourselves gently in to position before unloading on them...

Zakky fires off another round from the nerf gun and Marshall and Clarke look up at him before Marshall whispers in Clarke's ear...
MM:........phemism.

CJ: What?

MM: Who are we after anyway? Keith Leone? Dicey Reilly? Lex Hart? Median?

CJ: Nate Nack?

MM: Paddywhack?

??: Don't take no flack?

??: Rhyme in time to the rhythm of the track.

James and Murdoch look up to see Ant and Dec driving in the other direction on a similar looking truck, James shakes his head in disbelief as Marshall stares solemnly....

MM: I miss Jimmy Nail....

James pats Marshall on the back...

CJ: We all do, but we have bigger things to deal with right now...THE MAP!

Zakky moves forward, unpinning the map from the truck floor. Marshall grabs desperately at thin air trying to retrieve the map....

The map falls tantalizing out of Marshall's reach before catching the breeze and flying off into the distance.

MM: 'God dammit! Who's idea was it to rent a truck that's basically open plan?'

CJ (looking sheepish): 'I told you there's budget cuts! It was either get a better vehicle or cancel the sky subscription in the church!'

Vlad (firmly): 'Which would have meant no more Russia's next top model'.

CJ; 'Yeah he was adamant he wasn't losing that, and the next step up from this was a corsa, and that would have been one hell of a squeeze'

MM: 'Fair point, its not the most threatening of vehicles either. What do we do know though?

(Suddenly Vlad grabs the gun off Zakky and points it straight at Zakky's face)

MM: 'Woah, steady on, I know he messed up but that's a bit too far, I admire the sentiment though. Besides we are forgiving folk hear at the church, and Zakky is our friend, we won't resort to such inhumane punishment.

(The camera fades to black and then cuts back several hours later as 'road to nowhere' by the Talking Heads is playing, Zakky can be seen tied up in the corner of the truck)

MM: 'What's taking so long?'

CJ: 'Turns out the map of 6CW also had directions to 6CW written on the back, and Xeres doesn't know the way to their arena'

MM: 'Do they not play at big venues like the M.E.N. and Wembley though? Surely everyone knows where they are?

CJ: 'No actually I don't think they actually attract enough people to do that'

MM: 'Where are we heading then?'

CJ (pulling out a ticket) : 'The Altrincham College Sports Hall - glamorous'

MM: 'You bought a ticket?'

CJ: 'I thought it would be rude not to, we can't just barge in within a ticket can we?

MM: 'I though that's exactly what we were doing?'

CJ: 'Oh yeah...'

MM: 'Anyway Xeres step on it, I want to be there by the time we get back from the advert break!'

(The camera cuts to commercials and when it returns the Church is outside the Altrincham College Sports Hall)

MM: 'Well that was handy'

CJ: It's all about continuity, Marsh.....Hey Chris...

Marshall looks stunned as Chris Patricks walks past....

MM: But isn't he?

CJ: No, that's Chris Benoit.

MM: Ah. And the weights bench?

CJ: Rehab.

Marshall nonchalantly shrugs his head as Xeres sprints over to the two men...

Xeres: Errr, guys, I have some bad news.

CJ: They didn't renew your contract, we know.

Xeres: What?

CJ: Oh, er, nothing, do continue....

Xeres: But you said...

MM: God dammit, will you spit it out boy?

Xeres: We're at the wrong venue?

Clarke face palms as Marshall looks sheepish before dismissing Xeres...

MM: No, i can't be wrong. Trust me, this is where 6CW holds their shows.

Xeres: It's not, sir. This is TNA.

Vlad walks into shot and places the nerf gun in the face of Marshall as James places his hand on the gun, moving it away from the face of Marshall as he shakes his head at Vlad...

CJ: We really need to start doing background checks on these guys....

MM: We?

CJ: Yeah?

MM: Are we back together then?

CJ: Well isn't this what this is all about?

MM: I thought it was for HBO?

CJ: You mean Dr. Shoe?

MM: No the TV company.

CJ: Trash TV?

Marshall rolls his eyes...

MM: Have you always been like this?

James points at the scar on his head...

CJ: Head wound. Schrapnel from a howitzer. I stilll hear the screeching late at night.

The screen zooms in on the face of James, sweat begins to pour as the sound of gunfire fills the screen before the camera cuts to Marshall...

MM: No you didn't. Cassius hit you with a chair. I saw it. I laughed........VLAD!!!

Vlad pokes the gun in the face of James as we head to commercial.

The commercials are about to roll when Marshall pulls the camera back in.

MM: 'Woah... we only cut to adverts a few minutes ago! Folk'll go switching to corrie at this rate, and it's a goodun tonight, they finally reveal where Ken Barlow went to.'

(Xeres lets out a groan and can be seen with his head in his hands)

MM: Problem?

X: 'Forgot to sky plus it'

MM: 'Relax its on series link...VLAD!! That's really not helping

(Vlad is now prodding Clarke in the temple with his gun, before Marshall forcibly pushes the gun down, however Vlad only moves the gun down as far as Clarke's crotch)

MM: 'WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?'

(Vlad shrugs and moves the gun away before motioning himself shooting into the air)

MM: 'Ah go and shoot something over there if you're really that desperate to'

(Marshall waves in hand vaguely in the air and Vlad crouches down before prowling off)

MM: (aside to Clarke): 'I think you're right about the checks, we've got to check CRBs as a minimum from now on, anyway are you alright now?'

CJ: 'You don't know man! You weren't there!'

MM: 'Yes I was, in fact I wrestled earlier that night, but no-one ever remembers the midcard do they? Anyway what are we going to do now, we're miles away from 6CW and the shows about to start!'

X: 'I have a cunning plan'

MM: 'Go on the Rodney let's hear it'

CJ: 'It's Baldrick actually'

MM: 'What?'

CJ: 'You called him Rodney, you should have said Baldrick, it's a Blackadder reference'

MM: 'I'm from America, cut us some slack will you? I've never actually seen either of them.'

CJ: (whispering in Marshall's ear) But you're from the North?

(Before Marshall can respond they are both distracted by the sound of a gun going off before a window smashes and there are loud screams)

MM: 'He hasn't...'

CJ: 'He has...he's shot TNA...'

MM: 'Well he hasn't shot the whole of TNA has he?'

CJ: 'Does it matter? Well the hell do we do now then?'

MM: 'RUN!'

(Marshall, Clarke and Xeres all run off leaving Vlad behind)

CJ: 'Where are we running to?'

MM: 'To the COHmobile!!!'

(Clarke suddenly pulls up with an unamused look on his face and glares at Marshall)

MM: 'What? I thought it might catch on'

(Clarke shakes his head as the three men all jump back in the truck)

We come back from commercial, smoke billowing around the side of the highway as the camera close in on the overturned tank, Clarke James is stood puffing a cigarette as Marshall looks completely shocked…

CJ: That escalated quickly.

MM: Yeah.

CJ: Vlad killed a guy.

Marshall turns and stares at James….

MM: Seriously, after what Max Adamson put us through last year you’re really going to go down the Anchorman route!? COME ON!

Marshall flings his arms up in the air, knocking the cigarette out of James’ mouth. He walks away as the camera shows Vlad dragging the body of Zakky Spencer from the wreckage of the truck. Marshall nods in appreciation before they widen in horror. The camera pans round to show Xeres bound and gagged, blood tricking down his face…

MM: Jesus Christ man, they’re not hostages, they’re injured!

Marshall runs over, pulling the gag out of Xeres’ mouth and untying him, Vlad stares at him blankly, releasing Zakky who slumps to the floor. James waltzes over, tapping away at a Satellite phone…

MM: Where did you get that?

CJ: I got it for the trip?

MM: How much was it?

CJ: Er……..i dunno, about a buck, fifty?

Marshall looks unimpressed….

CJ: Like three hundred, maybe four…

MM: So you wasted the budget on this phone.

CJ: Maybe. But look how cool it is?

James waggles the phones in front of Marshall who looks impressed with the technology before shaking his head…

MM: It’s not the point, how is that gonna get us out of here?

CJ: It’s a satellite phone?

MM: Right?

CJ: So it means we can watch Sky Sports News on the go?

James points down at the phone as the image of Jim White can be seen, the phone cuts out…

CJ: Oh…

MM: What?

CJ: Out of battery.

MM: Seriously? You’ve got to be joking…

CJ: If I was joking I’d say a rabbi and a priest walk into…..

Suddenly a gust of wind blows past the two men, the sound of Spanish guitars fills the air, a mysterious figure stands, his long curly black hair blowing in the wind, his ling trenchcoat flapping behind him, James and Marshall move towards him, Vlad walks aside them, moving the nerf gun up only to be stopped by Marshall, they approach the man., the sun blocking his face….

CJ: Who are you?

The mysterious figure drops a black cigarette in the floor….

??: Ola, senor…… my name, is Alejandro….

The figure walks out of the sunlight….

??: Alejandro Suarez…..CHA CHA CHA!

Marshall and Clarke stand in shock as Vlad faints, crashing into the floor with a thud as we head to commercial.

Marshall and Clarke were stranded on this long and lonesome road, when all of a sudden there shined a shiny ...  Alejandro Suarez in the middle of the road...

AND HE SAID!

AS: 'Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your soul...CHA CHA CHA'

So Marshall and Clarke, they looked at each other and they said

CJ: 'OKAY!'

MM: 'Hang on, how the bloody hell are we supposed to do that?'

CJ: 'Easy, wait there for a sec...'

(Clarke wanders off to the remains of the truck whilst Marshall tries to make small talk with Alejandro)

MM: 'So you're a demon huh? How's that working out for you?'

(Fortunately the awkwardness is interrupted by Clarke returning with an electric guitar and a triangle)

MM: 'Where did you get them from?'

CJ: 'I picked them up before we went'

MM: 'Why? And it's more expenditure!?!'

CJ: 'Well it was going to be a long trip and I thought we might need some entertainment on the way, and yes but they're only on rental and look how handy it's turned out to be!'

MM: 'Well I'll admit it was a good job you thought ahead, and I suppose it's not too bad if you've just loaned them.'

CJ: 'Exactly, but unfortunately the drum kit didn't survive the crash so we've lost the deposit on that...'

(Marshall shakes his head before Alejandro loudly clears his throat and taps his watch)

CJ: 'We'd better get playing then'

(Marshall picks up the electric guitar looking puzzled)

MM: 'And how do you propose we do that? We can't even plug this in!'

CJ: 'Through the magic of television Marsh!'

So they played the first thing that came to their heads and it just so happened to be...well it was pretty bloody awful actually.
Needless to say, Alejandro was stunned, whip-crack went his whoopy...beard, but he wasn't done...

AS: 'Well that was pretty Poopie lads, so now I'm going to have to eat your souls'

(Marshall and Clarke look at each other completely indifferently)

AS: 'CHA, CHA, CHA!!!'

(Marshall and Clarke's facial expressions turn to one of horror of Alejandro approaches then)

MM: 'RUN!!!!'

(Both men start running)

CJ: 'Where to? We can't go back to the truck!'

MM: 'Over there, there seems to be a hiding hole'

(Marshall, Clarke and the recovered Vlad jump down the hole into pitch darkness, until a beam of light blasts out and Clarke can be seen holding an industrial standard torch)

MM: 'Seriously, how much money did you spend?'

(Before Clarke can answer they are interrupted by footsteps approaching in the distance, before a familiar figure walks into view)
Mark Palmer: 'Nobody gets in my well...'

CJ: Oh Poopie....

MM: You've gotta be kidding me.

Vlad begins to cower in fear behind the two men as Mark Palmer approaches....

MM: It's been nice knowing you, Clarke.

CJ: I love you, too, Marsha.

MM: What?

CJ: Erm.....olive juice.

Palmer moves closer to them, stepping into the light and staring them down before breaking out into a huge smile...

MP: Well hello there, friends! Welcome to my well!

Palmer flicks a switch on the wall as a bright neon sign on the wall lights up saying 'Mark's Well', only with numerous bulbs missing...

CJ: Nice!

MM: Yeah, lovely.

MP: I haven't seen anyone down here in a long time....

James looks around noticing a skeleton in the corner of the well...

CJ: Pst, Marsh....

MM: What?

CJ: Lookit!

Marsh ignores James as Palmer continues to talk...

MP: Ever since that incident in 6WF, i've become somewhat of a recluse. Looking for that final resting place....

CJ: Oh god, he's gonna kill us!

MM: Will you shut up.

MP: I'd heard about it, see. Someone told me there was a place where old 6WF characters went to die, or at least their careers....

CJ: Oh my god, oh my god!!!

MM: CLARKE!

Palmer turns and faces the pair....

MP: Problem?

MM: Nothing. You were saying?

MP: Ah yes, this place, this humble resting place. It had been mentioned to me many a time. I'd get cryptic messages, accidental PM's, once, this guy came to my house, took of his pants and offered himself to me if i joined....

MM: Sounds like how Hero recruits....

CJ: HA!

The camera cuts to Vlad who looks confused and upset...

MP: But i never found it. I dug and i dug and i dug and nothing, until one day it hit something...

CJ: A passer by?

MM: CEE-J!

CJ: Ok, ok! Continue...

MP: I thought i'd found it. I climbed up, desperate to see if this place existed, but no, it was nothing more than a shell of what i was looking for. I stared into the ring, nothing but a confused Frenchman standing over the body of a drug ravaged clown...

MM: Wait a minute, are you saying you found...

CJ: 6CW?

MM: You had to steal my line, didn't you?

Palmer smiles.....

MP: Yes i did....

Palmer flicks another switch on the wall and a stream of lights flicker on revealing a huge tunnel....

MM: Whoa.......

CJ: Impressive. I haven't seen a hole that wide since that video Lex and Jess made.

MM: Mark, will you take us?

MP: I don't know, guys?

CJ: Please?

MP: Ok.

MM: That was easy.

MP: But i can't guarantee your safety. The trail will be long and hard. We must trek, day and night, even then there is no guarantee we will make it.
Are you will risk it?

MM: Sure.

MP: Oh, ok.

Marshall, Clarke, Vlad and Mark begin their journey as we head to commercial.

The four men are shown walking down the tunnel side by side as 'the long and winding road' plays in the background.

MM: 'It's an impressive structure Mark, but why did you make the tunnel so wide? Aren't you just making more work for yourself?'

(The shot then moves on several hours and the four men are still walking, although all seem to walking less purposely than before and Marshall is looking extremely exasperated)


VR: 'So it's something beginning with R?'

CJ: 'Yep'

VR: 'And it's definitely not Rylan from the X-Factor?'

CJ: 'Yep'

MP: 'Is it a rhino?'

MM: 'For God sakes it's a rock! Why on earth would there be a rhino down here?'

(The four men all stop worriedly for a moment listening intently)

MM: 'Well that's a relief, normally why I saw something like that a rhino would show up.'

(The shot then moves on several more hours and all 4 men are looking very tired now)

MM: 'Right lads we're going to have to stop for a moment'

CJ (looking concerned): 'Why are you alright?'

MM: 'Oh yeah I'm fine (Marshall points behind him) but spare a thought for the cameraman, he must be knackered lugging that thing all this way'

(The film then speeds up then and the group seem to pass the same photo of Mark and his well several times)

CJ: 'Hang on...we've been walking for hours and we don't seem to be getting anywhere, plus I'm sure we've been here before'

MM: 'Yeah, you're right, how much further is it Mark?'

MP: 'I'm not too sure, could be hours, could be days'

CJ: 'What if we just turn left here instead of right?'

MP: 'No don't do that...'

(Clarke, Marshall and Vlad ignore him and turn left, they walk for barely 30 seconds and are faced with the entrance to the 6CW arena, the 3 men turn around to stare at Mark angrily)

MM: 'You knew we weren't that far away didn't you? Why have you been keeping us down there for so long?'

MP: 'Sorry guys, but you don't know what it's like! I've been down here for two years with little to no human contact, I spend my days empty and alone with nothing but my memories to keep me occupied, it was just nice to have someone to talk to, well someone who could talk back, for once.'

(Marshall and Clarke exchange a look, and Clarke nods at Marshall)

MM: 'How do you fancy coming with us Mark? We could use someone to replace Xeres and Zakky?......Mark?

Marshall and Clarke turn round to see Mark Palmer replaced with The Consultant....

CJ: What's going on?

TC: Take a look....

Marshall and Clarke turn around, the 6CW Arena has been replaced by an empty Wembley Stadium, the Born In Fire poster hanging from the roof in the distance....

MM: I don't understand....

TC: Take it all in, Gentlemen....

CJ: Why?

TC: Because after tonight, you may never see it again....

The Consultant turns around and walks away, fading into the distance. Marshall and Clarke look at each over. The graveness of the situation etched across their faces. The walk forward slightly, stopping and looking up at the Born In Fire poster. The camera moves away, zooming in to the faces of Alex Walker as a bright white light begins to engulf the screen as 'I See Fire' by Ed Sheeran begins to play....

Images of previous Born In Fires are shown. Former 6WF stars like Nemesis, Rockv2, Diablo, Perfect Jack, Easy Money, Hobo, Enforcer, JJ Johnson, Saint, GDC are shown on the screen.

Images of the participants in tonights matches are shown before the image of Danny McGraw and Alex Walker are shown on screen.
The images die down and the sound of footsteps can be heard as Hero walks into shot. He looks at Marshall and Clarke and gestures to them.....

Hero: It's time.

Hero turns around and heads into the light as Marshall and Clarke follow and the opening credits roll.

*Ricky Nelson & Mike Hill are interviewed by Christy James. Mike Hill jumps the early part of the interview and takes the limelight off the TV Champion. He wants the world to know how good his protégé is and he isn’t accepting any nonsense regarding cheap title defences or an unworthy run with the belt. Ricky Nelson made this open challenge tonight, kicking off Born in Fire, because it doesn’t matter who steps out from behind the curtain, they will be dealt with. Christy wants to know what Nelson thinks; which sours Hill’s mood. The TV Champion takes a moment but reiterates what his mentor has said that he is the worthy TV Champion and he’s going to prove that tonight. He tells us how Mike Hill headlined the last Born in Fire and it is only fitting that they are now opening up tonight’s event; and who knows maybe JJ Johnson will show up and he’ll show him what the future looks like.

*We get a clip from the pre-show of Ojore/Drake decimating The Producers. We then see Robin Reborn entering the Wolf Gang’s locker-room with the “Liberty Championship”. Ojore and Drake are waiting as Reborn lays out the plan for the evening. He’s glad the first part of the mission went smoothly, destroying the ghost of Born in Fire in The Producers, but the main target and priority remains Liam Wood. Reborn wants it known that this is bigger than just defending a championship, this is a platform, with millions watching, for The Wolf Gang to finally have their message heard. Wood represents the oppression and prejudice that has plagued their lives, personally and professionally, but here tonight they can remedy that. Reborn tells us the world is slowly waking up but things aren’t progressing quick enough so it’s their job to accelerate the process. Reborn says welcome to ReBorn in Fire

*We get a brief shot of Perfect Jack arriving at Wembley Arena earlier in the afternoon. He has his kitbag over his shoulder and stops to greet several members of the 6CW crew as the commentators debate whether tonight is the night that he can become 6CW Champion once again. We hear Marshall Murdoch has yet to arrive.

*Crime Lord is with Timothy Allen. Crime Lord is in a foul mood following his failure to win the 6CW World Championship at Proving Grounds. Crime Lord lays the blame firmly at the feet of Perfect Jack and vows that vengeance will have its day, that all who have slighted him should begin watching over their shoulders. But tonight is about Clarke James, another accessory to his downfall, and here at Born in Fire, an event he knows so well, he vows to make an example of his former CoH cohort. Crime Lord says CJ was never on his level, nor Marshall Murdoch and once he has finished with “Judas” he will then turn his focus to whoever walks away tonight with his 6CW Championship. Crime Lord makes it clear that everyone is on borrowed time and collection is due

*Clarke James is taping his hands up as he finishes watching Crime Lord’s speech on the monitor. CJ looks at the wall behind him, where a poster of the night he headlined Born in Fire with Marshall Murdoch is hanging, and he sighs. CJ walks out into the corridor and there is a second poster of he and Perfect Jack before their title challenge with Cerberus two years prior. PJ is suddenly by his side and they stare at the poster together in silence. PJ puts his hand on the 6CW Championship that is on Cerberus’ shoulder and nods his head before walking off, saying “Good luck out there” as he leaves.

*James and Jenny McManus are deep in conversation ahead of McManus’ match. James doesn’t want his wife out at ringside because he doesn’t know what to expect and if it really is Dante Phoenix coming after him but Jenny is adamant she’ll be there. She says they have been divided for too long and the only way to plot their way back into contention is by working together; all of them. She says if it is Dante Phoenix coming after them then he is going to sorely regret his decision. He got away with ruining them once but the last laugh will be theirs

*There are cheers in the backstage area and crew members with poppers and balloons as GazzyD enters, the 6CW TV Championship over his shoulder. Gazzy is looking for Christy but nobody has seen her as Travis Sharp approaches for an interview. Gazzy is proud to be back in 6CW, his home, and he says it feels good to have championship gold in his possession once more. Gazzy vows to be a fighting champion and claims to have never been in better physical condition, just ask his wife. Gazzy excuses himself as he wants to celebrate with Christy and leaves the shot.

*We get a brief shot of Clarke James being wheeled toward an awaiting ambulance in the backstage area. Perfect Jack appears and wants to check on his friend but the medics say it is imperative CJ gets checked out. The get another clip of Crime Lord’s assault on Clarke as the commentary team talk about the extent of the injuries suffered. Perfect Jack watches the ambulance leave the area with dismay on his face as we are told that the 6CW Champion still hasn’t arrived as of yet.

Backstage following the Battle Royal and we see Dante Phoenix being helped to the backstage area. Phoenix suddenly drops to one knee and clutches at his head before James McManus runs in and delivers another huge knee to the temple. Security quickly back McManus away as his eyes burn with rage. McManus walks away and is greeted by his wife, who has a vindictive smile on her face.

*James McManus is ranting to his wife about not having a match tonight or anything lined up for Born in Fire. Jenny tells him that management can’t hold him back forever and sooner or later he’ll get his chance to get back on track. McManus says maybe he needs to shake things up to get noticed when there is a knock at the door. He opens it but there is nobody there, just a parcel. He brings it inside, a black and gold box, and unwraps it. There is a note inside, written in a deep red font, that merely says “Born in Fire…..See you there”. The lights flash on and off and there is an eerie laughter in the air. Jenny McManus looks worried but her husband shakes his head and says he knows Dante Phoenix is behind this. He didn’t realise Phoenix was so stupid to pursue this but he is going to end him for good at Born in Fire.

*Fleur Michaels is with Jackson Jackson in the backstage area. Fleur says its been an incredible year for Jackson since 6CW reopened but it has been a difficult last few months. She questions whether Jackson’s pursuit of a match with Tyler Roth and his ongoing pranks is the best way to re-establish himself in the division but he fully believes it is. He says everyone is scared of Roth, they see him as an unbeatable monster, but he isn’t and he knows better. Jackson says everyone was scared of Marty Helms after what he did to Cerberus and Frank Horrigan but Jackson never backed down and it’ll be exactly the same with Tyler Roth. Jackson knows he can beat Roth and tonight at Born in Fire he’s going to prove it because Roth is human and he has his weaknesses. Jackson makes it clear that he wants the 6CW Championship back and his journey to the summit starts again this evening.

*There is an argument between Ricky Nelson and Mike Hill following Nelson’s title defeat. Hill wants Nelson to calm down but Nelson blames Hill for offering the open challenge in the first place. Nelson needs some time to think because he came to 6CW to be a star and he doesn’t feel he’s getting the respect he deserves. Hill promises to fix it and tells Nelson to have faith but the tension remains.

*James McManus is led backstage following the defeat to Dante Phoenix. McManus is still in a state of shock as he sits down on a bench in the locker-room whilst his wife stands over him. McManus finally starts to speak and he tells Jenny that “it’s over” and that they need to start facing the reality of the situation but then Jenny slaps him. She tells him that feeling sorry for himself is not the answer and it is time he got a grip. She says someone is here to see him as The Fanatic enters the room with an angry expression on his face. He says “Hello old friend” as the scene ends.

*We get a montage of Dicey Reilly’s best bits in 6CW as the commentary team debate whether tonight will be the last time we see the Irishman inside a wrestling ring. They document the seriousness of the injuries sustained by both Reilly and Helms in recent weeks and whether or not the 6CW Council should have allowed tonight’s “street fight” to take place. We then see Marty Helms getting psyched up in the backstage area, looking battered and bruised, as the announce table debate if Dicey is even here.

*Tyler Roth walks into Travis Sharp backstage and he is full of himself following his victory over Jackson Jackson. Roth says “I told you so” and is dismissive of Jackson’s efforts, proclaiming that the same fate awaits anyone who tries to stand in the way of him getting to the top. Travis Sharp questions if that also means Charles Kramer and the Kramer Klan. Roth looks annoyed at the mention and repeats that “anyone” can get it because “The Reaping has begun”.

*We get a brief shot of Uryu Ishida stretching and doing yoga ahead of his battle with Karl Kramer. The commentary team talk about how Christy James has agreed to be ringside for the bout and what kind of factor she will be. Henry Lloyd brings up GazzyD’s return and he will be happy about his wife being exposed to potential danger.

Proving Grounds May 10th and 20th 2020 – A sign of things to come

*Dicey Reilly and Marty Helms go head to head in the backstage area. Dicey warns Helms that getting cosy with Miss Jessica is bad for your career but Helms tells Reilly to mind his own business. They exchange unpleasantries and Helms threatens to end Dicey the same way he did Cerberus but Dicey shows no intimidation. Says he's survived bigger and badder, name drops Genesis and Keith Leone as well as Cassius Zhi but Helms counters that nobody is a dominant or as dangerous as he. Dicey says "I guess we'll find out" and walks way leaving Helms in a rage

*Marty Helms leaves his locker-room and is confronted by Dicey Reilly ahead of the main event. Dicey is glad that Helms heeded his advice with Miss Jessica but now he should be careful because she’s going to be coming after him with the wrath of hell. Helms tells Dicey to stick his advice and get the hell out of his face before he sends him back into retirement. Helms tells Dicey that his words last week has no bearing on what he said to Jessica and that nobody has or ever will control him. Dicey laughs and says “we’ll see” and Helms then gets right in his face. Helms challenges Dicey to a fight right there and then but Reilly says they’ll save it for the ring and promises to humble Helms the same way he has so many other upstarts over the years. Helms says Dicey has absolutely no idea what he is dealing with and that has never faced anyone like him. Helms promises Dicey that he may have been “born to fight” but if he chooses one with Helms then he’ll “die fighting” as well.

Proving Grounds May 30th – A strained alliance begins?

JR: Dicey Reilly has done it…..Mr 6CW is one step closer to being crowned King and he’s heading to Scars and Stripes…

JT: It was a tremendous main event that was ruined, in part, by Miss Jessica’s hired guns…..Marty Helms had no chance against the numbers but that takes nothing away from the performance of Dicey Reilly….the veteran has proven once again that he’s still one of the best in the business…

“Born to fight” echoes through the speakers as the referee raises Dicey’s arm in victory. Reilly looks down at Helms and then out at McManus, Nelson and Phillips patrolling the ringside area…

HE: Dicey got the win but now, if he’s smart, he’ll walk away….

JT: Dicey Reilly just went to war with Marty Helms and I’m sure they earned one another’s respect….I don’t think Dicey is just going to leave and let Helms take a further beating…

Suddenly “Sweet but a psycho” screams out and Miss Jessica, a huge grin on her face, struts out onto the stage with a microphone in hand.

Jessica: You can leave now my sweet little leprechaun…..this doesn’t concern you….

*Dicey glares at Jessica as Nelson, McManus and Phillips pull themselves up on different sides of the ring.

JR: Dicey not leaving in a hurry…

Jessica: This can go easy or hard, you pick……either leave now or I’ll remove you from the Road to Royalty tournament, rendering all your hard work worthless, and I’ll make sure my boys give you a beating you’ll never forget…

JT: Dicey Reilly needs to seriously consider his options here…..he’s worked so hard to get where he is….

JR: But Dicey isn’t a coward either…

Marty Helms is slowly using the ropes to drag himself up and he looks out at Jessica with a boiling hatred and then staggers into Dicey, who holds him up. Dicey and Helms stare at one another before Helms points for Dicey to leave…

JT: Helms telling Dicey this isn’t his fight….a little too proud for his own good if you ask me….

Dicey stands his ground and seems ready to fight alongside Helms but then MH shoves him in the chest and shouts at him to get out. Dicey looks annoyed and shakes his head as he exits the ring, walking along the walkway and past the cackling Miss Jessica…

JR: Marty Helms just alienated the one person willing to help him out….not the smartest of tactics…

*We get a montage of Helms & Dicey constantly bickering and on the verge of trading blows throughout the Team Lawless & Team Frost war before working together in order to secure victory at Beachfront Brawl in the War Games match

Declaration of war – September 13th 2020

Frost says he is proud of them all and he knows that they will put on one hell of a main event as they usher in this new chapter. Perfect Jack requests his own mic and he says he appreciates Frost’s words but he also wants to thank the boss for showing faith in him, in all of them, to carry the burden and protect 6CW from outside threats. Jack says he has always answered the call for this company and he always will. He says he knows it is back to every man for themselves now because he knows they all have the same ambitions but he wants his cohorts to know that he will always respect them and consider them “brothers in arms”. He says may the best man win and then offers a hand to the middle. Dante Phoenix walks forward and places his hand on Jack’s and then Dicey Reilly does the same. All three turn toward Helms and after a pause he makes his way forward. Cillian Frost is standing to the side and looks pleased as Helms puts his hand forward but then he draws back and headbutts Dicey Reilly between the eyes, immediately dropping him. Helms storms forward and manages to land a punch on Dicey as he sprawls against the ropes before PJ waistlocks Helms from behind and launches him across the canvass. Helms quickly retreats from the ring and snarls back as PJ, Frost and Phoenix check on Reilly. Dicey’s nose is busted but he looks more angry than anything as he stares out at Helms.

The commentary team talk about how Dicey & Helms was a ticking timebomb waiting to go off and now it has, they predict fireworks for the main event.

*LATER THAT NIGHT*

JR: Helms has bad intentions in mind here…

Dicey struggles and then succeeds in swiping Helms’ legs out from under him. The back of Helms’ head slams off the stage and then Dicey catapults him toward the entrance structure…

JT: Helms hit that clean….and now Dicey is lining him up…

Helms staggers back and Dicey pulls him into a front facelock…

JR: JACKHAMMER!

Helms floats over the shoulder of Dicey and then he rakes down his injured back, digging his nails into the bleeding wounds. Dicey yells out in pain as he turns and then Helms grabs him by the throat….

JT: DICEY JUST GOT RUINED!

Helms locks both of his hands around Dicey’s neck before lifting him off the floor and slams him through the announce table. The crowd are watching on in disbelief as Reilly slumps in the wreckage and Helms just stands over him…

JR: Marty Helms just finished the job he started at the beginning of this show…..he said he would be the man to finally get rid of Dicey Reilly and he may just make good on that….

Helms continues to stare down at Dicey and then the cameras switch back to ringside

Born to fight – September 23rd 2020

*The scene changes and there is a huge commotion as Dicey Reilly and Marty Helms are beating lumps out of one another in the backstage area. Helms rushes Dicey backward into some production equipment but Dicey turns the tables and slams Helms into one of the huge freight doors into the arena. Security, referees and members of the roster rush in to break them apart as the commentary team talk about the growing issues between the two volatile superstars. We get a clip of Helms' attack on Dicey to end last weeks' show and the announcers debate if they can keep it together for tonight's main event.

*LATER THAT NIGHT*

On the outside, Helms grabs Dicey and pulls him away from the ring apron but suddenly Dicey whacks him in the head with a barbed wire baseball bat…

JR: Dicey’s got Betsie….and he just levelled Helms….talk about an equaliser…

Blood has been immediately spilt from Helms’ head as the barbed wire makes contact with his skin. He staggers over toward the announce table and then Dicey slams the bat into his gut before turning it sideways and rams it into his head again…

HE: That should be a disqualification….

JT: The referee’s too busy waiting to make a call on the action in the ring….

Murdoch is ripping at Jack’s ankle and a tap out looks imminent but then Jack rolls forward at the final second, taking his foe by surprise, and the world champion is sent crashing into the ropes. Jack tries to hobble up, his ankle causing him distress, as Murdoch rushes him again….

JR: Ducked it….PERFECT SLAM!

Marshall jumps out the back and spins him around…

JT: Codebreaker…

Marshall lands the double knees to the face and leaves Jack flat on the canvass. He staggers over to the corner and he beckons for Jack to get back up…

JR: Those knees will have scrambled Jack’s senses and now he is in the line of fire….

JT: Murdoch is lining him out…..OH MY LORD!

A huge crash is heard as the cameras pan around to see Dicey driving Marty Helms through the Spanish announce table with a “Craicdown” piledriver, leaving the wreckage bloodstained.

Car crash waiting to happen – 11th October 2020

JT: If anyone has any sense here they’ll call this off….it has gone far enough…

There is a medic shining a light in Helms’ eyes but he shoves them away as he drops from the truck, stumbling as he does so. Dicey is still crouched on the floor…

JR: Dicey Reilly really could do with seeing a doctor….

JT: Marty Helms has other, blood-thirsty, ideas….

Helms watches a team of medics tending to Dicey on the floor and then he grins as Reilly is on all fours and then runs across with a sickening punt to the skull…

JR: Dear lord…

JT: If Dicey’s neck and spine weren’t damaged already then you can guarantee it now…

Helms looks maniacal as he is backed away by crew members and security. Dicey is flat on his back, staring into the sky, as medics attend to him and call in for more assistance…

JR: This is bad….in fact it may be even worse than that….

JT: Ladies and gentlemen Dicey Reilly is hurt here….

JR: The bad blood between these two men has taken this to a whole new level of violence….

JT: Dicey’s neck may be broken…

A stretcher is wheeled into the fight area and then a gurney is lifted to the floor so that the EMT’s can begin strapping Dicey to it. Dicey is seemingly conscious but unable to do much else…

JR: Both of these men did so much damage to one another in such a short space of time here tonight…..this may be the first mistake made by the 6CW Council because I don’t believe this contest ever should have been sanctioned….

JT: I don’t think it would have mattered….nothing and nobody was going to stop Helms and Dicey’s collision course….unfortunately this was inevitable….

Dicey is lifted up onto the stretcher but then there is shouting and alarmed faces as Helms shoves past the medics and begins to drive vicious punches into Dicey’s head. Reilly is unable to defend himself as Helms tees off on him…

JR: This is sick…..Marty Helms is the sickest son of a b1tch I’ve ever known….

HE: Dicey Reilly knew what he was getting into….Helms told him it would end here tonight and he’s making good on that….OH MY!

Helms grabs “Betsie” in order to scare off the gathered crowd of medics and security and then he begins wheeling the stretcher across the parking lot at pace. He releases it and sends Dicey crashing, headlong, into the side of the arena….

JT: Jesus….how much more is the human body able to withstand….Dicey Reilly can’t even defend himself….

The gurney has fallen off the stretcher but Dicey is still attached to it as Helms stomps down on his head. Helms releases the straps so that Dicey can get loose but the Irishman isn’t moving….

JR: The killer instinct has returned for Marty Helms, without a doubt, and at the expense of the biggest name in 6CW history….as far as statements go, they don’t come greater than this…

JT: This is heinous….

Marty Helms, blood all over his face, just stands over Dicey as the camera pans around to show the stunned expressions of everyone in attendance. Helms then begins to shake his head…

JR: Enough is enough here….we need some serious interjection…..

JT: There’s no onsite authority….

JR: Well maybe that needs to be remedied because otherwise we may just end up with a body on our hands…

Helms stumbles back over toward the ring of vehicles and he picks up “Betsie” once more. The medical team are trying to plead with him and a referee gets in his way…

JT: No, don’t……OH CMON!

Helms just slams the bat into the gut of the referee and then swipes it toward the skull of another as they try to intervene. The rest of the crowd disperses as Helms staggers back toward Dicey, who is unmoving….

JR: I really don’t know if we can watch any more of this….

HE: This really is starting to look a lot like that episode of Walking Dead….now might be the time to draw a line….

Dicey is face down on the floor, there is shallow breathing, but he is showing no signs of movement. Marty Helms is twirling the bloodied bat in his hands and then he raises it up over his head….

JT: He’s going to cave Dicey’s skull….someone please….

There are flashing lights and sirens as three police cars suddenly rush into the scene. Officers pour from the vehicles and surround Helms, blocking his route to Dicey…

JR: Talk about divine intervention….

HE: Somebody called the police?

JT: Someone did the right thing, the only thing….

Helms is illuminated by the flashing red and blue lights, his eyes full of malice through his crimson mask, and he slowly throws the barbed wire bat to the floor. The police officers move in to handcuff him…

JR: Marty Helms is heading for a night in the cells by the looks of things….

JT: Getting Helms and Reilly as far away from one another as possible is the only solution right now…..

HE: But what’s the solution? Because as long as these two men are employed by 6CW they are going to try to end one another….

JR: I’m not sure Dicey Reilly is going to be doing anything for a while…

JT: Don’t count the Irishman out…..he was spared here tonight and that may be all the reprieve he needs….but this is a big decision now for the 6CW Council because I hear what you’re saying, Henry…..these two men will not be content until the other is finished for good….

Marty Helms is marched past the crowd in the parking lot and escorted to the nearest police car before he is forced inside. The cameras zoom in on Helms’ bloodied face behind the glass….

JR: Marty Helms isn’t unscathed here either….he is sporting the scars of war….

JT: And there’ll be more to come unless someone puts a stop to this….

JR: Well for tonight, at least, it’s over….

One of the officers slaps his hand against the top of the police car to signal to the driver that they can go and the vehicle begins to pull out of the lot. The car is approaching the exit when the flatbed truck slams straight into the side of it…

JT: WHAT THE HELL?!?

JR: DEAR LORD ALMIGHTY….

The side of the police car is crumpled, the windows shattered, and then the door of the truck opens and Dicey Reilly staggers out, on his feet momentarily, before collapsing in a heap once more…

HE: I didn’t even see Dicey get up….how the hell did he even manage to drive that truck?

JT: It took everything he had left…..every fibre of his being…..but he was determined to answer back for what Marty Helms has done to him tonight….

JR: This is insanity….these two men, this is beyond warfare….

Dicey is quickly attended to by onsite EMT’s whilst security and more medics pour over toward the smashed up police car. The other police offers rush over for added assistance…

JT: This is like the scene out of war movie….devastation everywhere…

The officers from inside the damaged car climb out and appear uninjured, although shaken up, whilst it soon becomes apparent that Marty Helms is in a bad way…

JR: Helms was cuffed in the back of the car….

HE: He’s out….

JT: The impact of the collision sent him forward into the guard between the front and back seats…..his whole face may be broken…

JR: Neither of these men are going to recover from these injuries in a hurry….

Stretchers are brought in for both men and we get glimpses of both, unconscious, being strapped to protective gurneys. The medics are looking very concerned whilst the police officers are on their walkie talkies radioing for ambulances…..after a few moments we hear more sirens…

JT: Blood and broken bones may just be the beginning of the end for both of these warriors…I highly doubt they will ever be the same after this…

JR: This may be the last time we see either Dicey Reilly or Marty Helms….I still cannot believe what we have just witnessed here at Proving Grounds….

JT: Our well wishes obviously go out to both men…..we strive to be the best wrestling promotion on the planet and I believe we are but that was tough to watch….

HE: That wasn’t wrestling, that was a brawl to end them all…

JR: And end it, it might just have…

Ambulances arrive on the scene and both men are wheeled in separate directions as the action heads elsewhere.

Sealed in blood – October 25th 2020

*We get a full rundown of the brutal & hellacious “Parking Lot Brawl” between Dicey Reilly and Marty Helms last time out. The commentary team say both men were taken to the hospital to be treated for their injuries and had to be kept there for awhile afterwards in order to aid their recovery. They debate on whether we’ll ever see either man in a ring again when the feed is interrupted by a camera in the hospital that shows Dicey Reilly being treated. Dicey looks badly banged up when Marty Helms bursts in and brutalises him some more. Helms destroys Dicey and then produces a contract. He presses Dicey’s bloodied forehead against the paper and says that he contacted the 6CW Council to have this contract drawn up. He says Dicey’s career ends at Born in Fire in a “street fight”. Helms is clearly hobbling as well but looks pleased with himself as he leaves the room. Doctors and nurses rush back in to tend to Dicey as the commentary team wonder how such a match has been sanctioned.

*Jimmy Phillips is with Christy James and he wants this night and this moment to be remembered. He says tonight, at Born in Fire, Trash TV will be cancelled and Hobo will be joining Clarke James and Dicey Reilly in the local hospital….the only difference being that Hobo won’t leave unless in a bodybag. Phillips says tonight the disrespect and overlooking comes to an end because he is the “Haunting of the Hall of Fame” and we’re about to get a front row seat to the horror show. Phillips leaves as Uryu walks into shot. He tells Christy she looks nice and presents her with a flower, as thanks for being ringside tonight. Uryu promises no harm will come to her but he is grateful that she agreed to be there. Christy still wants Uryu to be careful and wishes him luck, saying she’ll see him later on. Uryu smiles as he walks away.

*We get a harrowing image of both Marty Helms and Dicey Reilly being taken toward two separate ambulances waiting in the back. The commentary team talk about their belief that both men’s careers may be over and how the 6CW Council must accept their portion of blame for allowing that level of barbarism to take place. The man in the red suit with the monocle is then interviewed by Timothy Allen and introduces himself as Renier Grohl. Grohl says he is merely an on-site intermediary for The Council. He says he carries no personal authority however the powers that be would like someone present at each show to express their desires and wishes, a role which has been delegated to himself. Grohl claims the Council are delighted with how tonight’s pay per view is playing out and when questioned on if the previous bout should have been allowed to take place he advises Allen to contact The Council directly for a response, he is merely here to do his job.

*There is a heroic reception for Hobo as he joins Fleur Michaels in the back. Hobo says he had no desire to return to the industry until he turned on the TV and saw the disrespect pouring from Jimmy Phillips as he assaulted his good friend, Diablo. Hobo says Trash TV is a brotherhood steeped in tradition at this event and he intends to ride off into the sunset following one last hurrah that ends with Jimmy Phillips eating humble pie. Hobo reminisces about winning the TAW Heavyweight Championship at Born in Fire II and says that was his career highlight, the entire Trash TV celebrating with him afterward, and tonight he wants to experience that euphoria a final time. Hobo says it is time to take out the Trash and that he will exorcise the “Haunting of the Hall of Fame” once and for all. This is for Diablo

*Marshall Murdoch finally arrives at the arena. Christy James is on hand to try and grab a word with him about his upcoming title defence and what happened to Clarke James earlier but Murdoch declines to talk as he heads for his changing room. GazzyD then appears and Christy is delighted to see her husband. They embrace and celebrate Gazzy’s return. Gazzy wants Christy to leave with him so they can celebrate. Christy says she still has something to do tonight but Gazzy is insistent. Christy looks torn for a moment but Gazzy wraps the TV Title around her waist and tells her he doesn’t want her wearing anything else tonight. She giggles and follows her husband as the commentary team talk about how Uryu will respond when he realises Christy isn’t there.

*The Kramer Klan are interviewed by Travis Sharp. Charles Kramer seems amused that Uryu has been left high and dry by Christy, remarking that it is almost as though he’d conveniently forgot she was married. CK tells Uryu not to worry because his broken heart will be nothing compared to the pain that is about to be inflicted upon him by the King of 6CW. Charles Kramer says tonight Uryu will pay for putting his nose into their business and that it will serve as a reminder to everyone else that the inevitable rise of his nephew to 6CW Champion cannot be prevented. Travis Sharp asks why CK was ringside for Tyler Roth’s win over Jackson Jackson earlier but CK smirks and repeats what he said about people putting their nose in their business. Karl Kramer looks a little annoyed by his uncle’s question dodging but keeps silent. Tyler Roth steps out in front of them as they head toward the entranceway. Roth just glares at both Kramers as he takes a sip of water and then walks away. Karl Kramer wants to go after him and fight but his uncle puts a hand on his shoulder and tells him “one at a time” as the scene ends.

*Uryu is shown looking at a poster of he & Max Adamson fighting at Born in Fire with Clarissa at ringside. Uryu sighs and then puts his hood up as he heads for the entranceway.

*Robin Reborn & The Wolf Gang are standing on a mocked-up podium in the backstage area with the logo “ReBorn in Fire” on the front. Reborn says tonight is the inauguration of the new world order in 6CW. He draws parallels with a changing of the guard in the USA and says that tonight he will strike a blow into the heart of injustice. He says 6CW cannot hide from its past crimes and that atonement is mandatory. Reborn holds up the “Liberty” Championship and says this is a representation of their cause and it shows that change is coming and he is the advocate of that change. He says this movement is bigger than any of them, bigger than the company itself, and there is no way that Liam Wood or anyone else, for that matter, can stand up to that. Reborn makes the bold claim that tonight the Wolf is now immune to the Viper’s poison and he’ll prove that when he tears the snake’s head clean off.

*Liam Wood is shown watching Reborn’s speech and then he turns toward Timothy Allen. Allen questions whether Wood is 100% following the assault by The Wolf Gang two weeks ago. Wood admits he is banged up but that’s never stopped him before and it definitely wont tonight. Wood admits the world needs to change and move forward but accuses Reborn of being a liar and using the movement as a smokescreen to engineer his own greed. Wood says tonight he will win the title and restore the heritage of the “UK” Championship because making a difference goes way beyond the name of a championship belt. Wood says he will lend his support to anyone who truly wants to make a difference but reiterates that Reborn is a fraud. Wood says the only one capable of spreading poison and division is his opponent but he has the cure and tonight he will present that antidote in the form of an a55 kicking Reborn will never forget. Tim Allen asks if Wood is concerned about The Wolf Gang’s interference but Wood tells them to bring it on.

*Fleur Michaels tries to get a word with Uryu as he re-enters the backstage area but Uryu isn’t in the mood to talk. He says he needs some time to think but is then spun around and dropped by a “codebreaker” from Ethan Shaw, 6CW’s newest recruit. Shaw transitions the move straight into a triangle choke that leaves Uryu unconscious as Fleur Michaels screams for help. Shaw kneels over Uryu with a sadistic grin as the scene ends.

DF: Liam Wood is the sole survivor….he is a double champion….he is the man….

A lesson in humility – Night of Glory VII – Monday 18th July 2016


LW: You worthless...you're a rat, a damn rat and I am about to stamp you to death. No more of this uprising bulls***, no more hanging on the coattails. This is my title, this is my night and this will be my sweetest victory!

*He turns to the crowd

LW: And all of y—

HA: REBORN! CODEBREAKER! HOW DID HE GET THAT HIGH?!

*Reborn sneaks around and jumps up into the air to meet the turning Wood with a Codebreaker off the apron and down to the floor. With his last drops of energy he gets to his feet and rolls Wood into the ring before collapsing down again. Thunder lifts Wood to his feet and pushes him into the corner so he can lean against the turnbuckle

HA: BLUE THUNDER BOMB! BLUE THUNDER BOMB! WOOD IS DOWN AND PRONE, WOOD IS OUT OF IT!

HE: NO! NO! NO!

*The crowd roar and Thunder wobbles to his feet

HA: Not the cover?

HE: Oh god, he wants a damn tribute too

Thunder points to the ropes before stretching out his arms and saying Viva La Raza. He shuffles across to the turnbuckle and climbs to the top, points to the sky and hits the Flog Splash

1.....2..........3!!

HA: NEW CHAMPION

DING DING DING

HE: THAT LYING, CHEATING, STEALING GRINGO-LOVING

Return of the Pack – Proving Grounds – May 10th 2020

JT: It’s another historic night in 6CW, the industry reeling in the aftermath of our Day of Reckoning

JR: It was certainly as promised for some, brutality and intrigue the story of the night. And now we head to Scars and Stripes, with Jackson Jackson hoping he can hold onto his title until then.

HE: And we have the beginning of our Road to Royalty tour—-

*Henry is cut off by the lights cutting, three beams piercing upwards from the stage and smoke pouring in.

Ultralight Beam by Kanye West and Chance the Rapper starts to play.

JT: Enchanting...

*As it talks of Ultralight beams, out into the middle one walks Robin Reborn. He wears a white suit, white shirt and white tie. Ojore and Drake come to stand either side of him.

They stand, a trio, Reborn at the front and the brutes behind him, standing in the middle of the smoke that billows around them

JT: Here stands Robin Reborn and his army, so it seems. He’s the talker; he seems to be the leader.

JR: Former world champ, former tag team champ, a luminary of EWF and 6CW.

HE: And a changed man, by the looks of things.

*Gone is the pink, the brash bright colours that used to adorn him. Now he dresses all in white, his soldiers contrasting in pure black. They walk confidently down to the ring together and the two men stand on the outside, one either side of the ring, as Reborn slides in and grabs a microphone.

He smiles before he speaks

RR: You gon talk about me now, huh? The new Robin Reborn, that’s what I hear. Twitter mentions, all your little columns. Fill em up with who I be now.

But I ain’t really changed though. I was always loud, always talking. But now I talk with actions too. No more clap happy little black man performing tricks.

You think I really always Mr Nice Guy? You talking out here, 6CW, forgetting my name. Forget to put respect on my name. But now the streets won’t forget Robin Reborn and the Wolf Gang.

*He looks over to Drake

RR: This right here, he an original. He owned yo asses in the day. And he a monster. I talked, he listened, he came back with my attitude.

*He turns to Ojore

RR: Same with my brother over here. Ojore don’t talk enough, that’s what they always say. Can’t put him in the title scene if he can’t hold a mic. Now I hold his mic, he hold your necks. The most vicious champion we ever seen, taking names and making em Xtreme.

*He turns back to look down the lens

RR: And me. Disrespected, disregarded, and disgusted. The man who won the Gateway to Glory from bell to bell. The man who toppled Joshua. Ended Joshua. He couldn’t be beaten; until he was. And then he never looked the same.

You think that man was always gonna sit back and wait for this industry to catch up? Nah, nah, nah.

*He looks around the empty arena then fixes his eye on the commentary desk

RR: Come on, boys. Who were you talking about when that kid won the world title? Did you mention me in the lineage? Hell no, you don’t talk s*** for the real black experience. Pay a little homage to JJ and his bulls***, but otherwise it’s all the other nonsense. You lucky I don’t see these two on you, just like I did Scott Harris.

*He laughs

RR: Yeah, we beamed him up real good. Scotty wanted it too much, but he didn’t recognise what he was. Daddy’s little boy is exactly who we need to finish, all the little hand out taking, excuses for wrestlers. The silver spoons, the chosen ones, and the relics living on past glories they can’t touch.

*He spreads his arms and gestures to the empty seats

RR: Look around, there’s no crowds to sway now. This place can finally run how it should do, like a motherf***ing jungle. The strong prey on the weak, and that’s what we started. Day of Reckoning hasn’t been and gone, we brought it and we keep bringing it. Trust is dead, Robin is Reborn, the Wolf Gang is about to run this joint.

You’re looking at the odd future of this business. Like I was before, I am again. No lying, no Lion, just brutes and the beasts.

*He walks to the corner and stands atop he turnbuckle

RR: I am a higher power, sent by the power of the great.

I don't believe in science, I believe in signs. Don't believe in signing, I seen dollar signs, colour white collar crime. Good God, the gift of freedom, praise be he that invoked and woke up slaves from Southampton to Chatham Manor.

Hear, for I will speak noble things as entrusted me: exalt, exalt, glorify, descend upon this earth with swords, and fortify the borders where your shortage lie

*He looks upwards and holds a pause

RR: I used to hide from God, ducked down in the slums like "shhh"

*He drops the mic. Sandwitches by Tyler the Creator starts to play, the opening lines allowed to play until the repeated Wolf Gang phrase is uttered, Reborn rolling out of the ring and being followed by Ojore and Drake.

JR: A strong message from an angry man...

JT: You can take issue with his actions, maybe even his tone, but a lot of what he says holds true. He did end Joshua’s dominance, he did end Night of Glory as the world champion, and he did get forgotten by this company

HE: Not all of us...

JR: Not any of us, Henry. Robin Reborn was and is a big part of the new generation’s story in 6CW. And there will be a lot of men back there with a different attitude now to a man they once knew.

*Later that night*

JR: OH MY…

HE: Uryu is in big trouble now…

“Ultralight beam” echoes out of the speakers and Uryu turns to face the stage as Robin Reborn, Ojore and Drake stride out onto the stage. Reborn is grinning as he and his cohorts make their way to ringside…

JT: Uryu has just been through a hellacious title bout…

JR: I don’t think these guys give a damn about that….I’ve set their sights on a new target…

HE: The Wolf Pack are surrounding their prey….

Ojore and Drake both drop down off the walkway and head for opposite sides of the ring as Reborn remains on the walkway. Uryu is circling around, trying to keep an eye on all three of his unwanted visitors…

JR: We saw what these three men did to Angelo Trust and Scott Harris at Day of Reckoning….that is not something I want to see happen to Uryu here tonight….

HE: Then I guess you better close your eyes because I don’t think they came out here to congratulate him on his win….THOUGHT NOT!

Drake begins climbing over the ropes into the ring and Uryu throws caution to the wind as he leaps into the big man and begins unleashing with forearms and chops. Drake tries to cover up from the blows and then he just launches Ishida backward with a two handed push….

JT: DEAR LORD!

Ojore is waiting and he easily lifts Uryu into his arms before crushing him into the canvass with a huge “World’s Strongest” slam. Robin Reborn is continuing to smile at the destruction that has been caused by his allies…

JR: We said it at Day of Reckoning but I think it’s worth reiterating that these three men are a major cause for concern to anyone and everyone on the 6CW roster…

Reborn begins to remove his suit jacket and he hangs it on the corner post before beginning to climb the ropes to the top. Ojore and Drake back away from Uryu….

JT: Uryu had to give his all in order to beat James McManus….he never stood a chance with this attack after that…

HE: I don’t think he stood a chance anyway…..

JR: And now Robin Reborn is about to compound the beatdown…..WAIT JUST A MINUTE!

HE: I didn’t see this….

“Revival Mode” suddenly screams through the speakers and Robin Reborn freezes on the top rope as Liam Wood comes walking out onto the stage, holding a steel chair. Reborn’s surprise turns to a smirk as he hops down to stand in the middle of Ojore and Drake…

JT: Probably the last man you’d expect to be coming to anyone else’s aid but here Liam Wood stands…

JR: We saw he and Reborn trade verbals earlier but still….this is extremely out of character for the Eater of Worlds…

HE: Must have a deathwish to come out here knowing full well what the Wolf Gang are capable of…

JT: Liam Wood is certainly undergoing some kind of transformation right now and his actions are far from predictable….but I agree that had anyone told me that Uryu was going to have a guardian angel here tonight then Liam Wood would not have been on my list of candidates….

Reborn and Wood are locked on one another as Wood begins to march across the walkway. He reaches the ring and is about to climb inside when Reborn tips him a wink and then orders the Wolf Pack to follow him to the outside. Wood gets in and stands over Uryu as Reborn, Drake and Ojore take to the outside…

JR: Yet another surprise….I didn’t think I’d see these guys retreating….

JT: I don’t think they were expecting more than one target here tonight…

HE: Reborn is formulating a plan here, that’s all….Wood may have saved Uryu here tonight but he’s also just put a bull’s eye on his own back…..this is far from done…

JR: Well it doesn’t look like Wood is backing down….he’s ready to fight…

Ojore seems ready to get in and fight but Reborn shakes his head and motions for his partners to follow him up onto the walkway as Wood continues to hold the steel chair like a baseball bat. Uryu is trying to sit up, wincing in pain, as The Wolf Gang head toward the backstage area, once Reborn has retrieved his suit jacket…

JT: Liam Wood has prevented Uryu Ishida from a grim fate here tonight but you have to believe that the Wolf Gang will strike again…..this pack of animals are only just getting started here in 6CW…

Reborn shares one last staredown with Wood before he and the Wolf Gang disappear into the backstage area. Uryu is sat on the canvass as Wood extends a hand and helps him up. Ishida appears confused as Wood takes the UK Championship from the canvass and throws it into Ishida’s hands….

Hunter or hunted? – Proving Grounds May 20th 2020

HL: Ojore simply ignoring the ref's instructions here.

The ref tries to pull Ojore back but he is elbowed away. Ojore crashes the head of Wood into the steel continually after the 5 count.

Ding, Ding, Ding!

JT: The bell is being rung to signal a disqualification for Ojore, meaning Wood wins and advances.

HL: Somehow, I don't think Ojore is too bothered about that, in fact I don't think he was ever too bothered about that to be honest. This is about sending a message from Robin Reborn.

Blood is pouring from the head of Wood after the impact of the exposed steel. Ojore bench presses Wood down to the outside of the ring and then steps out. He picks up Liam Wood and brutally Irish whips him into the steel steps. Wood slumps down against them as Ojore sprints in and crashes a massive knee to the head.

Wood lays against the steps, his face a crimson mask, as Ojore begins to clear the announce desk. He grabs a TV monitor and turns around, running and crashing it into the head of Liam Wood.

Ojore then picks up Wood and throws him into the announce table, Wood's back crashing into it. Ojore stomps away on Wood then hauls him to his feet...

JR: EARTHQUAKE!

JT: HUGE GUTWRENCH POWERBOMB THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!

HL: Message well and truly sent from Reborn and co, Ojore has absolutely obliterated Wood here.

Viper Strike – Proving Grounds May 30th 2020

HE: GOD'S LAST GIFT…..COUNT IT, REF!

Murdoch is busy smirking as Drake and Ojore are being ordered from the ring and it allows Reborn to sneak up on him, spin him around and nail the finisher Reborn is hooking the legs….

JT: PSYCHO CRUSHER!

The referee is still getting rid of Drake and Ojore as Liam Wood jumps the barricade and rolls into the ring before foot stomping Reborn’s head into the canvass. Reborn then runs to the ropes and he front flips over the top with another velocity to knock Drake backward into Ojore and take all three of them down…

HE: That’s not right…..Liam Wood just took out Robin Reborn…..that’s a disqualification….

JT: Referee can’t call what he doesn’t see and I’d say that’s just a little bit of retribution on behalf of Liam Wood….

JR: Levels the playing field momentarily….

Reborn and Marshall Murdoch are both groggy but Marshall is the first man to his feet. He stumbles into the ropes and spots Ojore and Drake down on the outside before turning back to Reborn. Reborn is holding his head as he reaches his feet….

JT: MARSHALL LAW!

JR: GOT ALL OF IT!

1.
..
..
….2
..
……………..3!

JT: Marshall Murdoch just booked his spot in the semi-finals…..he’s going to Scars and Stripes for the chance to be crowned King of 6CW….

JR: Murdoch remains on the Road to Royalty thanks to a huge assist from Liam Wood…

Prey – Proving Grounds June 12th 2020

JT: Liam Wood closing in on some retribution…..WORLD EATER!

JR: IT’S OVER….

Ojore slams the UK Championship into the back of Liam Wood’s head, causing an automatic disqualification. Ojore quickly checks on Reborn and he looks annoyed as he gets to his feet and orders Ojore to drag Wood up…

JT: Liam Wood was about to win this match….damn this pack of wolves are uncontrollable…

HE: They hunt their prey together, Jeff….that’s why they are so dangerous…

Ojore quickly drags the unconscious form of Wood to his feet and then scoops him onto his shoulders….

JR: Liam Wood is facing a grim future here…..

HE: This is what awaits him at Scars and Stripes, if there is anything left by then….

JT: URYU AIN’T DONE!

Uryu nails a dropkick to the back of Ojore that sends him staggering forward and knocks Reborn over, Wood dropping to the mat. Ojore spins around and Uryu lands with a series of kicks to the legs and body, chopping the big man down…

JR: Uryu fighting with all he has….at Scars and Stripes he knows how difficult it will be to keep the UK Championship from Ojore by my God he’s going to try….WHAT A ROUNDHOUSE!

Ojore drops to his knee and Uryu lands a flush kick to his temple that drops the big man down on his back. Uryu stumbles over to the corner and leaps up top….

JT: I don’t know if we’ve ever had a superstar with more grit and determination that Uryu Ishida…..OH CMON!

Reborn is back up and he swipes Uryu’s legs, crotching him on the top rope. Reborn is pacing the ring now, delivering another sermon, as Ojore gets back up and drags Uryu onto his shoulders…

HE: BONFIRE…..WHEN OJORE HITS THAT AT SCARS AND STRIPES – NEW CHAMPION!

Ojore decimates Uryu with the “Burning Hammer” in the centre of the ring as Reborn beckons the cameraman closer in order to finish his speech….

Reborn: And may God have mercy upon their souls!

JT: The Wolf Gang are fast becoming a force to be reckoned with here in 6CW….

HE: There’s no stopping them, Jeff….breathe it in because you can’t argue against the results and you cannot beat the numbers….

The cameras pan out toward the back of the fan area where security are dragging Drake and Clarke James apart. Both men are trying to resist the restraints and continue their brawl but then Drake turns away to walk a path back to his cohorts….

JR: Drake’s heading back out here toward the ring….

JT: And security is blocking Clarke James from getting back here…..CJ wants to fight….

HE: They’re doing him a favour…

JR: They aren’t doing Liam Wood any favours, though….

Wood is struggling to get back to his feet as Reborn is grinning at him and then Drake rolls back into the ring and runs straight through Wood with a huge spear. Reborn then orders Ojore and Drake to pull Wood up…

JT: This is just rubbing salt into the wounds now….Wood is a beaten man….

JR: At this rate he and Uryu will be lucky to compete at Scars and Stripes….something I’m sure Reborn is well aware of…

HE: Reborn is just letting them know who the Alpha is….LOOK AT THAT!

Ojore and Drake just hold Wood in place as Reborn climbs onto the apron and then delivers the big time springboard forearm. Wood and Uryu are both flat out on the canvass as Reborn, Ojore and Drake stand over them….

JT: Clarke James is still doing his utmost to get back down here to ringside….

HE: He’s a fool, first night back as an in-ring competitor and he wants to go on the shelf? It’s career suicide to take on the Wolf Gang….

JR: James is not going to back down, no sir….I don’t think he’ll give up this fight….

HE: And I’m sure the Wolf Gang will gladly oblige him….they’ll need fresh meat once their done feasting on Wood and Ishida….

JT: I’d say this is an extremely powerful message sent ahead of Scars and Stripes, folks….

Reborn drops down on one knee and bows his head whilst Drake and Ojore stand either side of him and raise a lone fist into the air.

The Wolf – Scars & Stripes – 28th June 2020

JT: TILT-A-….

JR: GOD’S ANGEL!

Reborn flips out on his feet and sets up for the “Wing Clipper” but Wood struggles against his grip and then spins out back….

JT: VIPER LOCK!

HE: GOT HIM!

Wood thinks he has the full nelson in and is about to push Reborn toward the floor when he spins out again and this time nails the “Wing Clipper”….

JR: Liam Wood never saw it coming….

Wood is trying to get himself up but he can barely function. Reborn smirks as he drags him back up…

JT: GOD’S LAST GIFT!

1.
..
..
..
…..2
..
..
………………..3!

JR: He did it….

HE: I told you….I told you all along….

JT: Folks we have, for my money, just watched the best match of 2020 thus far…..Robin Reborn is victorious over Liam Wood in what I can only describe as an instant classic…

JR: They’ll play this one back for years, of that I have no doubt….incredible action….

HE: And what really matters is that Robin Reborn is victorious just like he said he would be…

JT: He had plenty of help along the way….

HE: I don’t need any help out here right now….he got the job done by himself, like a true leader….

JR: You can’t deny that Reborn benefitted from Ojore and Drake’s constant interference….I can think of at least three instances when Liam Wood had this match won…

HE: But won it?

JT: Reborn did….that’s not disputed….but don’t change details to suit an agenda….Robin Reborn has won this battle but the result could have been very different…

“Sandwitches” is playing out as Reborn orders the referee to raise his arm in victory. Reborn looks down at Wood and laughs before beckoning the camera over to him so he can perform one of his sermons…

JR: Robin Reborn returned to 6CW on a mission and he has certainly made his mark here tonight at Scars and Stripes….

HE: And how fitting that at a flagship EWF event he has defeated the man who truly believed he was the face of that company….Liam Wood has finally been put in his place and we now know who the superior really is…

JT: I wouldn’t mind them running that back…

Stolen Dreams – Beachfront Brawl – 31st August 2020

JR: And he wants to end this…..COAST TO COAST!

Uryu is illuminated in the moonlight on Yas Island as he leaps across the ring for the side-to-side dropkick but Wood moves at the final second to send him clattering against the turnbuckle. Wood then drags the broken form of Uryu away….

JT: MANSON DRIVER!

1.
..
..
….2
..
..
..
……………3!

JR: THOSE NO GOOD….

The referee’s hand comes down for three as Drake & Ojore drag Liam Wood out of the ring, grabbing one arm each, and then lash him against the plexiglass barriers with ferocious force. Wood is slumped in a heap on the floor, holding the back of his neck…

JT: Liam Wood should be the new champion here….

HE: Cry me a river…

JR: And, unsurprisingly, the door is now wide open for Robin Reborn….

HE: It’s almost like fate…

Uryu is still down on the canvass as the cameras capture Robin Reborn standing on the apron. He is shaking with anticipating as he waits for Ishida to stand and then he springboards through the air…

HE: GOD’S POWERFUL WRATH!

JT: SUNSET….HE WON’T BE COUNTED OUT!

Reborn goes soaring through the air for the “phenomenal” forearm but Uryu catches his arm and then immediately spins through into the bridging armbar….

JR: One of the best counters I have ever seen…

Reborn senses the immediate danger and he rips and pulls at his own arm, bending it at a horrible angle, and then kicks out repeatedly until Uryu is forced to release. They both scramble for their feet and Reborn spins on his heel before ploughing his other foot backward into Uryu’s gut…

JT: That was low……

HE: Doesn’t matter….it’s all fair….GOD’S LAST GIFT!

JR: Not this way…

JT: Dammit….

HE: Fate, prophecy, legacy…..call it what you want but he guaranteed it…

Ding ding ding

Michael Bird: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner…………AND NEW 6CW United Kingdom Champion…….Rrrrrooooobbbbbiiiinnnnn Reeeebbbboooorrrrnnnnn!

Liberation – September 13th 2020

Reborn: Don’t you even think about declaring me the champion of some uncivilised, backward, out of date, Neanderthal enterprise like that….you know shame on 6CW for even still trying to push that (beep)….

JR: Here we go…

HE: You know he’s right…

Reborn grabs the title belt and he holds it up in the air whilst the crowd boo him…

Reborn: You booing because you don’t get it….you ain’t lived it, you don’t know what it’s like to feel or experience the things that I have….that my brothers have….we making a change right here and I don’t give a damn how much noise we gotta make in order to make it happen….you will listen and you will learn because this (beep) has gone on too long…

No longer will I be recognised as the champion of an isle that believes itself beyond reproach…..that title exists no more……what you are looking at in my arms is the Liberty Belt…..because that’s what I fight for….that is what I stand for….this movement is just getting started and it can’t be stopped….don’t even try….stand in the way and you will get run down, believe that…

Injustice….intolerance….ignorance….call it whatever the hell you want…..6CW is responsible, management and the roster…..the fans are responsible….each and every one of you that feeds into this system of inequality…..but no more….this is a new era and we taking back what is rightfully ours….

You can either hand it over or we’ll take it by force…..make a choice….

*Reborn drops the mic and places his belt over his shoulder before standing in front of the camera to give the "Black Panther" signal as the crowd watch on

JR: Powerful stuff there from Robin Reborn…

HE: And you know every word that just came out of his mouth is gospel….the truth hurts…

JT: Spare me the (beep)…..right now in the world we live in there is a lot of necessary change needed….nobody can deny that, I wouldn’t even try….but that does not apply to this company…we can all do better….we can all do more….but I have worked for 6CW for a long time and I categorically deny that that culture exists here…

HE: Then you are blind and ignorant…but don’t worry, Jeff, because the Wolf Gang are going to open your eyes and you will have no choice but to see…..you keep talking about how this is a new era for 6CW, I don’t think you have any idea what that means but you will…

JR: What cannot be denied is that Robin Reborn is still the champion…..whether you want to see him as UK Champion or the Liberty Champion is your choice but that title remains around his waist and it is providing him a platform for his voice to be heard…

HE: Reborn is going to be heard no matter what….this isn’t going away….like he said, this movement is just getting started…

*LATER THAT NIGHT*

*Robin Reborn re-enters the backstage area when Liam Wood confronts him and challenges him. Suddenly Ojore and Drake appear on either side of Reborn and he tells Wood that he doesn't deserve a shot at the Liberty belt, he isn't worthy and he already had his chance. Wood warns that he'll do what it takes to force Reborn's hand and the champion smirks before wishing him good luck

The hunt for redemption – 23rd September 2020

JR: FROM BEHIND!

The crowd are applauding and cheering as Reborn is spun around by Liam Wood and smacked right between the eyes with the “Liberation” belt. Wood quickly drags CJ over Reborn and dives from the ring as the referee turns…

HE: No, he can’t…..

JT: Ojore and Drake better move quick…

1.
..
..
….2
..
..
…………….3!

JR: Too late….

Wood dives from the ring and disappears behind the announce tables as the referee’s hand slams down for the three and Clarke James is declared victorious. James is just about out of the ring, holding his neck, as Ojore and Drake dive in…

JT: Liam Wood just sent a message loud and clear…..Robin Reborn said he wasn’t interested in Wood as a challenger but the Viper isn’t going away….

HE: He’s nothing but a pest, he needs putting down….

JR: Well then maybe Reborn should grant Wood his request and defend his title…

HE: Wood doesn’t deserve another shot…

JT: There are many that believe Liam Wood should be the champion….

HE: Those people are idiots…..Reborn is the champ and it’ll stay that way…

*LATER THAT NIGHT*

Wood is leaning against the ropes, gasping in his breath, but he sees Crime Lord trying to stand so he runs over and drills him into the mat with the foot stomp….

1.
..
..
…..2
…
……………….3!

JT: Wood gets the win off of Clarke James’ assist….

HE: Screwjob….

JR: Crime Lord opened the door last time out with Clarke James and tonight he has reaped his own…..big win for Liam Wood….

Clarke James is already gone into the backstage area as “Revival Mode” blasts out and the referee raises Liam Wood’s arm in victory. Wood keeps his other arm across his ribs…

JT: Wood knows he was in a real fight tonight and those ribs are an unfortunate bulls’ eye…..

JR: DIDN’T TAKE LONG!

Wood is still celebrating his victory when he turns into a rib-shattering spear from Drake. Robin Reborn are also at ringside now…

HE: Now Liam Wood is going to pay for what he did to Reborn earlier….

JT: Liam Wood was attempting to force Robin Reborn’s hand….but now The Wolf Gang are answering back….

JR: And in force…..this was never going to be a fair fight….

JT: That’s all Wood wants…..but I don’t think he will ever get it…

Ojore climbs into the ring and he runs off the ropes before returning with a huge splash to the already injured ribs of Liam Wood. Robin Reborn is full of rage as he orders his allies to pick Wood up….

HE: Reborn wants Liam Wood to hear his answer loud and clear….

Reborn unstraps the “Liberation” belt from around his waist and he holds it up to Wood’s face, letting him know he’ll never have it, before he drives it straight into Wood’s gut. Wood sags but is held up by Ojore and Drake…

JT: Liam Wood is really going to need someone to look at those ribs when this is done….

Ojore and Drake shove Wood back against the ropes and then they lift him up on the comeback and drive him down across their knees in a sickening double gutbuster. They keep him there, their knees digging into his ribs, as Reborn climbs out onto the apron and then springboards back in with a double foot stomp to the back, driving Wood harder into the knees of Ojore and Drake….

JR: What a crushing attack here….

HE: And if Wood knows what is good for him he will give up because this is not a fight he can win…

JT: The Wolf Gang hunt as one…..pack mentality…..and I don’t think that is ever going to change….unless Liam Wood can find a way to combat them all then he may be out of his depth….

Reborn picks the “Liberation” belt back up and all three members of the Wolf Gang stand over Wood, who is face down on the mat, before raising a lone fist into the air.

JR: Message sent loud and clear here tonight….Wood fired first but the retaliatory strike was devastating…..

*LATER ON*

*We get a recap of The Wolf Gang's attack on Liam Wood and the commentary team state that Robin Reborn has put out a message on social media to tell Wood that if he wants a shot at the title then he has to defeat Ojore & Drake in a handicap match at the next show. We then hear how results will now have an impact on forthcoming title shots and champions will have a certain amount of mandatory defences each year as well voluntary ones

Re-match secured – October 11th 2020

*Robin Reborn begins yelling at the referee and remonstrating to the cameras about a conspiracy. He wants to get in the ring with his “Liberty” title but the official won’t let him enter. Wood is barely able to stand as Drake once again sets up for the spear but this time Wood sidesteps and sends Drake crashing into Reborn, causing Reborn to fly off the apron and into the security railing. Ojore quickly drops off the apron and rushes around to check on his leader….

JR: Reborn didn’t see it coming…..wiped out by his own man…

JT: He had no business being up there anyway….

HE: Wait…..no, he can’t do that…..OH NO….

The referee is leaning through the ropes and is unawares of what is transpiring behind him in the ring. Wood is still struggling as Drake grabs hold of him and he does the only thing possible, lands a brutal low blow…..

JR: And Reborn left behind his title…

The “Liberty” belt is on the canvass and Wood grabs it before slamming it straight into Drake’s face. He sways around and Wood kicks him in the gut….

JT: MANSON DRIVER…..YES…..GOT ALL OF IT!

HE: NO….

The referee spins around and slides across the canvass as Wood makes the cover……………………..1………………………….2…………………….Ojore realises what is happening and abandons Reborn as he rushes for the ring……………………3!

JR: Too late, Ojore…..somehow, some way…..Liam Wood just pulled it off…..

JT: Tremendous heart, courage and determination….he just stuck two fingers up at the Wolf Gang and now he’s coming for the UK Championship at Born in Fire….

HE: You mean the Liberation Championship….

JT: I mean what I damn well said…..this isn’t the Politics Show….that’s the UK Championship and Liam Wood has his shot….

JR: Not only that but he also gets to pick the stipulation……Robin Reborn is going to be furious when he finds out….

JT: If Reborn had quit his meddling then I don’t believe Wood had a chance here tonight…..Reborn’s inability to keep his beak out has backfired very badly indeed….

Wood has already rolled from the ring and dropped to one knee in the aisleway by time Ojore is back in the ring, stunned by what just went down. Wood has a smile on his face despite the intense pain shooting through his ribs….Robin Reborn is shown sat on the outside, disbelief on his face, as Wood’s arm is raised in victory….

JR: Ojore and Drake are going to be back in the doghouse tonight…..they have not fulfilled their obligation at all….

JT: They may have had the numbers but they didn’t possess the sheer will and grit that Liam Wood had here tonight…..a worthy challenger he will make at Born in Fire…..what a match that will be….

JR: One of the most intense rivalries in recent memory here in 6CW is going to add a whole new chapter….I just can’t wait to find out what Wood has in store…

ReBorn in Fire – October 25th 2020

JT: OH CMON NOW….

Wood drills Nelson with the modified piledriver and looks set to cover when Robin Reborn smashes the “Liberty” Championship into the back of his head for the disqualification. The referee tries to intervene but quickly scarpers as Ojore and Drake join Reborn in the ring…

HE: This is sensational….

JT: This is a damn mugging…..no other way to describe it….this is a three on one assault….

JR: The Wolf Gang are threatened by Liam Wood……that’s why this is happening…

HE: Ridiculous notion….Liam Wood was a fool to think he had the upper hand…he is the prey here…

The crowd are booing as Ricky Nelson scrambles from the ring to join Mike Hill. Nelson clutches the TV Championship to himself with a tight embrace….

JR: Ricky Nelson knows he just dodged a bullet here tonight…..

HE: He is the rightful and dominant TV Champion, show respect….

JT: I wouldn’t go that far but Ricky Nelson is still the TV Champion…..

HE: Just like Robin Reborn is the “Liberty” Champion and that won’t be changing for a long time….

Ojore and Drake flip Wood up and then drill him with a vicious double powerbomb that causes Wood to land badly on his neck. Reborn is pacing around the ring, prophesising and trash talking, as Ojore puts Wood in a full nelson and hauls him off the floor…….

JR: DEAR LORD…

JT: This is the grand plan, obviously…..Reborn wants Wood incapacitated before Born in Fire….

Ojore releases Wood in midair and Drake storms in with a brutal spear that resembles a car crash. Wood is writhing in pain on the floor as Reborn begins removing his jacket…

JR: Enough is enough here….

HE: Reborn is an architect of change…..he decides when it is enough……he is sending a message….

Reborn rolls up his sleeves and then drops down on top of Wood, exploding with vicious punches to the face over and over again. A cut opens above Wood’s nose and another on his forehead as the blood begins to seep down his face…

JT: Liam Wood is a busted mess here……this just went from 0 to 100 very quickly….

HE: Liam Wood is learning a very valuable lesson…….he is standing in the way of a movement….this is way bigger than him….than all of us….

Reborn is apoplectic as he gets back to his feet and orders Ojore & Drake to pick Wood up. Wood is dripping blood and offers no resistance as he is held upright….

HE: WOOD JUST STRUCK IN THE FACE BY LIBERTY…..HOPEFULLY THAT WAKES HIM UP TO THE BIGGER PICTURE!

Reborn smashes his championship belt into Wood’s face and he sags again. Reborn lands more punches and then he grabs Wood’s face and holds the belt there….

JT: This is heinous….

HE: This is war…..and Liam Wood is a casualty…..Robin Reborn and the Wolf Gang are leading the revolution….6CW will embrace this….wake up….

Reborn continues to rant at Wood and then he backs away and raises his championship belt as Ojore and Drake let Wood drop to the floor. The gathered crowd are booing as Reborn stares into the camera…

Reborn: You can’t run…..you can’t hide….each and every one of you is accountable….judgement is coming for you all….ReBorn in Fire…

*Reborn laughs and then smiles

Reborn: Remember that…..ReBorn in Fire….

*Reborn lets out a howl and then beckons for Ojore & Drake to follow him from the ring

JR: What a way to kick off tonight’s show……Liam Wood and Robin Reborn are going to collide in two weeks…..two out of three falls for the “Liberty” Championship……what a match that is going to be at Born in Fire…

HE: ReBorn in Fire…..you heard the man……don’t hide from it, Jack….embrace it….ReBorn in Fire….
