6CWF PRESENTS SCARS & STRIPES 2024 - RESULTS

*We see Geoff Steel backstage performing some last minute stretches ahead of his clash with Marty Helms. Clarissa approaches to grab a word with Steel and he says tonight he understands he will need to be at his very best but that Marty Helms needs to start understanding that he is the Xtreme Champion for a reason and that is because he thrives in this kind of environment. Geoff Steel expects to bleed tonight, he expects to be battered and bruised but when all is said and done he also expects to still be the 6CWF Xtreme Champion.

*Dicey Reilly has returned backstage and is being congratulated on his victory. Dicey is telling Tim Allen that the "Open Challenge" will be continuing from next week and that he's taking that £1 million from VIP Promotions. Dicey once again finds himself face to face with Perfect Jack at the end of the scene.

*We see JJ Johnson/The Saint arriving in Texas in their own sports cars. JJ sits on the bonnet of his car and he stares up at the giant poster on the side of AT&T. Saint walks around and sits next to him. The two men reminisce on 6WF back in 2008 and how far they have come, warring with The Dynasty, Trash TV, Anarchy & Nemesis. Saint claps JJ on the shoulder and says "Now's not the time to look back, mate, we look forward to later tonight and THE NEW tag team champions"....JJ nods and smiles before looking back up at the stadium again.

*Logan Kincade is standing and staring at himself in a mirror backstage before the Ambulance match. Damien Andrews is suddenly standing behind him. Logan's breathing becomes a little more ragged at the sign of his father. Andrews wants to wish Logan good luck but also wants to tell him that he should never "hide from yourself". Andrews wants Kincade to know that his "true self" is what should be portrayed to the world. He leaves and we see a staredown between Andrews & Blue Dragon in the corridor. Dragon does not look happy to see his father.

Dragon enters now and he tells Logan that he has this in the bag but he needs to focus on winning and moving on because Gazzy is not their prime target. BD is almost trying to reason with his brother that although Gazzy needs to pay for his allegiance to Plague...."he doesn't need to suffer in the same way Plague does"......Logan stares at his brother through the mirror but doesn't say anything. Dragon says he needs to go and get ready for his title match, leaving Logan alone. We then hear "He's got the whole world in his hands" and we can see Edward Plague sat on the bench now behind Kincade. Plague wants to know that unlike "Daddy" and "little brother" he doesn't want anything from Logan except to show him what a real family is all about. Plague reaches out a hand and says "Let me in and I will show you the world".

*The crowd roar as Rex Adamson appears on all of the big screens and is doing some last minute squats backstage. Eddy Kent walks in now and he wants to give Rex a huge (anyone else getting Judas vibes). Kent wants Rex to bring it home for Genesis tonight and he hints that he should be keeping an eye on the "Last Rites" contest between Blue Dragon & Edward Plague. Kent really believes that Rex ("my son") can rise up tonight and take his rightful place by "Daddy's side". The 6WF & 6CW World Champions....ruling together....like the happy family that they are. 6CWF officials enter now to take the FFTR briefcase for the ladder match. Rex reluctantly hands it over but Eddy Kent looks almost relieved to see the case gone.

*Chris Patricks is doing his last minute stretches (RVD style splits on balance beams) as Max Adamson approaches. Max wants to talk to his best friend and tells him that as Co-Gm he wants CP to come to him if he has anything he wants and not feel like he has to go to Andrews instead. Patricks gets down now and he pats Max on the shoulder and says "I made a decision so you didn't have to, Max......I know this is personal and that's why you couldn't be involved....tonight I'm going to do what you should have a long time ago and teach this kid a lesson. I know you don't see it but what I am doing is for you". Patricks leaves Max in a very contemplative mood.

*We see Eddy Kent watching the end of the ladder match and it is impossible to decipher if he is pleased or not at the outcome. Tim Allen approaches for a word about "The Hour" but Kent dismisses him and says "Daddy needs to get ready". Allen asks what we can expect from tonight and Kent smiles and says "The unexpected" before leaving.

The scene then changes and we see Chris Patricks hammering on the door of the General Managers before it switches again as Blue Dragon is doing last minute prep for his war with Edward Plague. Logan Kincade walks in, still bloodstained, and BD wants to know where his brother has been but gets no response. Dragon tells his brother to clean up and be ready for when he gets back with the world title so they can celebrate but again Logan doesn't speak. Dragon says "Don't worry, brother, I've got this....just get a shower and I'll be back"....Logan walks into the shower-room now and it is clear that is lack of speech is bothering Dragon as the scene ends.

One final scene and Edward Plague is surrounded by his hooded followers. The one named "Kristian" says that Gazzy may not be here but the rest of them will "lay down our lives" in order to ensure Plague leaves as champion. Plague doesn't even ask about Gazzy's condition but instead picks up the world title and heads for the door.

*Rex Adamson walks back into the giant Genesis changing rooms with a towel on, having just had a cup therapy massage (the marks clear all over his back). Eddy Kent is sitting and waiting for him, the 6WF Championship sat on his lap. Kent seems surprised that Rex needed to "freshen up so soon" considering he had a chance to go out there and become 6CW Champion just moments ago. Rex laughs this off and says "And get caught up in that freak show? A champion needs to be smart...isn't that what you keeping telling me?" that draws an ugly smile from Kent.

Rex tells Kent he needs to relax because it's time for "The Hour" and that should where his head is at....not when Rex is going to cash in. Rex seems supremely confident as he pats Kent on the shoulder now and says "When the moment is right, I'll do what I have to".....Kent stands up now as Rex grabs his Genesis jacket and puts it on for him. Kent's swagger seems to be returning as Rex is running round after him. Kent heads for the door as Rex says "Aren't you forgetting something?". Kent turns now and Rex is holding the 6WF Championship (the Texas crowd erupt). Kent takes the belt and smiles at Rex, who winks back. Kent leaves now as Rex hums "The Final Countdown" and runs his hand along the FFTR briefcase.

*Scene change and Blue Dragon is walking backstage with the 6CW Championship over his shoulder. He rounds a corner and we see Chris Patricks finishing up a conversation with Damien Andrews before leaving. One of the backstage crew yells "And the new" as Dragon walks forward. Damien Andrews applauds his son and congratulates him. Dragon tells him to "save it", he has never needed Andrews for any of his success and he certainly won't be starting now.

Andrews retorts that he hopes Dragon thanked GazzyD because he didn't raise his sons to show "ingratitude when someone gives you a hand wrapped gift"....Dragon glares at his father and says "You didn't raise us at all"....before walking away.

*The final backstage segment sees Acer getting ready to leave the changing room when JJ/Saint enter with their brand new championship belts. "Bring it home, baby" Saint tells Acer as he slings his new belt on the sofa with disregard (Acer seems irked by it). JJ and Acer stare at one another before JJ pats his friend on the shoulder and says "This is your night....you've got this". Acer's jaw seems locked but he inclines his head and leaves.

We watch him walking down the corridor toward gorilla as a door opens to his side and Daniel Reilly steps out with Oliver Keane. There is a long staredown and Acer scoffs that Reilly can't get it done alone. This prompts Reilly to tell Keane to stay backstage because he's leaving as world champion regardless...."something you have never know the feeling of and never will". We see Percy Percival leave his changing room now and he waves enthusiastically at Acer & Reilly (both ignore him) before he beckons for the camera to follow him toward the stage now. Percy's congregation join him halfway down the hall and they are singing behind him (think some proper cheesy music video).

Mike Masters is already in Gorilla and is waiting for his cue to go out there when Scott Harris walks into shot. Security are present to keep them apart as Harris is pacing back and forth, clearly hyped for what is about to come. Harris slowly raises his head and stares at Masters before putting in his gumshield.

We shoot back down the corridor finally as Liam Wood and Emmy walk out of the locker-room. Clarissa wants to grab a word with Liam but he stops her. Emmy tells Clarissa that Wood is in the zone now and he will do all of his talking in the ring. There is nothing to say to Eddy Kent or any of the other competitors.....they all know why they are here but only one can leave as champion and Liam Wood fully intends that to be himself. Emmy kisses Wood before he walks away, oozing intensity
