The lights begin to dim and the crowd roar begins to get slowly louder and louder. Each second that goes by gets the vibration and the noise getting to loud. A huge blast of fire explodes above the ring, quieting the crowd for just an instant as they reciprocate it with a louder more intense noise.
We hear Shoots and Ladders hit as a single green spotlight appears in the ring where Shadow is as well. He has a microphone in hand. As the music dies down so does the crowd.
Rumors of our demise have been exaggerated. Nothing is ever final, nor ever permanent. We are all temporary in our own way. I take blame for what has happened. But then again when have I ever shunned blame?
Shadow puts his two fingers to his head as if lifting an imaginary hat.
“I tried to stay in the dark, it didn’t work, now maybe its time for something a little different?”
We see RW and JC take their spots.
Shadow smiles at the camera and at the people and he quietly departs.
RW: That was a little weird.
JC: When is he not weird?
RW: Point taken.
JC: Lets get to our first match of the night. (JC and RW share a look of confusion with each other. )
JC: Here we go with the triple threat match!
RW: I don't know who to pick in this one, it's so hard to choose!
The arena is quiet as the fans wait for something to happen, then a loud bang goes off as the lights in the arena dim down to low, them the sound of "Doomsday" by Atreyu hits the PA and the crowd goes insanely wild as Pyro from Colors red to Yellow shoot off from the stage. Erik Dean emerges from the backstage area and enters the stage; Dean stops and looks around at the crowd a bit and can see flashes coming from cameras going off; almost a bit blinding. Dean then walks down the ramp way slowly taking his time and enters the ring area and climbs into the ring.
JC: The returning Erik Dean!
RW: You know, I seen him hanging out with Smurfmaster outside a Church's Chicken the other day.
JC: Really?
RW: Yea.
JC: INCREDIBLE!!!
"Go Into The Water" by Dethklok hits the arena's sound system as T.K. walks to the ring loosening his wrists and stretching his neck. Meanwhile on the StrikeTron images of him in his matches are showing and watermarked in them are his accomplishments shown at the tempo of the notes, during the sustained notes the words "SFT Hero" become static for the length of the note.
RW: One half of Blood Money, TK Money!
JC: Will we be seeing his tag team partner during this match??
RW: I have it on good authority that Twilight is not in the arena.
JC: Who'd you hear that from?
RW: The popcorn guy.
Magic Stick by Lil Kim Featuring 50 Cent hits the P.A. system as Mike Hunt makes his way out from the back. He slaps a few of the fans hands along the way down to the ring, and then rolls into the ring, and faces TK and Dean.
JC: There's Mike Hunt.
RW: Does he even have a chance in this match with these veterans?
JC: Maybe, Randy. Maybe....
The bell rings and the three men size each other up. It starts off with TK Money kicking Dean in the gut, and then forearming his back. Hunt comes over but TK pushes him away. Dean gets back up and european uppercuts TK, and then kicks TK in the gut. Hunt comes over again, and this time Dean pushes him away. TK gets back up and he and Dean start trading blows, and Hunt once more comes over, and both TK and Dean push Hunt away. Hunt ends up tumbling and rolling backwards, getting back up to his feet and bouncing off the ropes, rebounding off and coming at both TK and Dean with a dropkick. Hunt connects and both TK and Dean fall outside of the ring. As TK and Dean gets up, Hunt goes and hits the opposite ropes and comes back and hits a tornillo that takes both TK and Dean down and out.
JC: ...It's becoming apparent that maybe Mike Hunt can hang with the veterans.
RW: Maybe? Looks like the veterans have to try to hang with him!
Mike picks up Dean and tosses him into the ring. Hunt rolls in after Dean and measures him up. Dean stands and Hunt attempts his Blow Me superkick, but TK grabs his foot from outside the ring, and trips him up. Dean takes advantage of this and drops a leg on the back of Hunt's neck.Hunt rolls to the apron as TK comes into the ring and Dean meets him and uppercuts TK. Dean drags TK out from near the corner and knees him in the gut and sets up TK for the Spoken Words. He hits it and goes for the pin, but unbeknownst to him, Mike Hunt is on the top rope, and goes for the Choke On This as Dean pins TK. Mike Hunt lands on Dean and Dean rolls away, holding his back, as Hunt pins TK.

JC: Mike Hunt wins the triple threat!
RW: That's amazing! Oh no, here comes Twilight.
Twilight slides into the ring and runs by Dean, kicking him, and then goes to Mike Hunt and starts pounding on him in the corner. Twilight leaves Hunt in the corner and goes over to Dean and starts kicking him too, as TK gets up slowly. Twilight calls over TK and they both whip Dean to the ropes and attempt a double clothesline, but Dean ducks, and as he ducks, Mike Hunt comes out of the corner and dropkicks Twilight's back as Dean hits a lariat on TK. Both Hunt and Dean start trying to stomp on Twlight and TK but they roll out of the ring and head out of the ringside area. Dean and Hunt look on before shaking hands. Dean heads out as Hunt stays to celebrate his victory.
JC: Mike Hunt and Erik Dean just ran off Blood Money. What does that say about these two men?
RW: It says that Blood Money aren't dumb enough to stick around when they don't need to. And how did Hunt even get the win? I don't understand any of this.
Micheal Hunt is the last person in the ring, even after Dean and the ref has left, he’s being egged on by the fans near the west side. The fans start to throw trash at him. He gets angry and starts to yell. One of the fans throws a hot dog, the wiener slips off the bun and lands directly in his mouth, he starts to choke on it, as he somehow gasps and spits it back out.
RW: Did Hunt just swallow a wiener and hiccup?
JC: hahaha, I think so.
Hunt not finding this very funny, jumps off the ring. He jumps the steel barricade and starts to senselessly beat the fan who threw the hot dog. We see security come running out to keep Hunt from continuing his attack.
RW: A little bitter isn’t he?
JC: People are always bitter about something, the hot dog was just an excuse.
RW: True dat.
We cut to a commercial for Oscar Meyer Wieners.
Mikey Genocide and Daniel Jacobson are both in the ring as the bell rings. As they lock up we see a large man come running in, he nails a double axe handle on Daniel and a superkick on Genocide, he lays both of them out.
RW: Is that?
JC: Yes, yes it is
RW: Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome back Grizzly Z!!!!
Insert Segment Here
Reno and Rayn are in the ring. And so is Aj Nin and Johnny Fierce. The match is started by Rayn and Fierce as the bell rings.
RW: An interesting tag team match, I haven’t seen Rayn of Destiny in a very long time.
JC: And Evil Over Rule, I don’t really remember, though their members are high profile, whens the last time Aj Nin wrestled?
RW: Dude I thought he was dead.
JC: Me too.
Johnny Fierce has a look of disgust and anger on his face. They lock up and do their test of strength, Johnny is beginning to give in, but he quickly kicks Rayn in the midsection with his knee.
RW: Johnny has been around too long, easily knows how to counter such maneuvers.
Fierce tries to lock in figure four but Reno runs in and hits him and breaks the hold up. Fierce clotheslines Reno from the ring and concentrates back on Rayn. Fierce with with a drop toe hold on Rayn, he covers but only gets a 2 count. Fierce now sets up Rayn and nails his Reconstructive Surgery.
RW: I think that may be it.
Flying Triangle is nailed perfectly by Fierce he covers Rayn 1...2...3!
JC: Aww that was sic!
Fierce starts to celebrate in the ring as Aj Nin gets in there and starts to celebrate with Fierce, Fierce just gives him a look and walks away.
RW: I guess EOR ends just as it started with a snip snap and a way we go.
JC: Ok next match we have Shane Clemmens vs. Twilight, both competitors are in the ring.
RW: I haven’t seen much of Clemmens here in SFT.
JC: But this is supposed to be a make em or break em match for Twilight.
The bell rings, Twilight and Shane lock up. Twilight throws Shane across the ring, hitting the ref.
RW: Uh oh.
TK Money slides in the ring with a chair he nails Shane in the back of the head with it and slides out just as quick. Twilight revives the ref he walks over and covers Shane as the ref slowly counts 1……2……….3!
JC: Well shit I guess Twilight just broke Shane.
RW: Didn’t even break a sweat, damn Blood Money!
JC: Eh you gotta love them bastards.
Lucretia Black and Annika Reizeger are both in the ring as the bell rings. The ladies step up to each other, they speak but only they can hear what they say to each other. Annika with a knee to Lucretia’s stomach.
Lucretia fights back with a sweep of Annika’s legs then as Lucretia is waiting for Annika to get up, shes going for a shining wizard kick but she did not notice Shadow slide into the ring. He blocks her kick. Lucretia in a fighting stance against her own father.
RW: What the hell, why is Shadow in there?
Lucretia with a roundhouse kick and Shadow ducks, not striking back.
Shadow takes a step back, he looks to Annika and says one word “leave”. Annika not wanting to get between father and daughter does as instructed.
But as she leaves we see Nirvana come walking down fast.
JC: This is going to get ugly.
Lucretia yells “Defend yourself old man!”
Shadow lowers his arms. Leaving his defensive stance vulnerable.
Lucretia does not let the opportunity go, she nails him with an uppercut, Nirvana gets in the ring and with a guillotine leg drop also helps his wife.
RW: two on one, The King- Shadow family fued continues.
Both Lucretia and King continue to pound on Shadow. Shadow exits the ring, this time he puts his trenchcoat behind his back revealing kendo sticks to his legs, he waits, with a smile on his face. He lifts his hands egging them to come out and try it again.
Lucretia begins to descend but Nirvana grabs her and pulls her back out, he’s seen that look on Shadow too many times. Lucretia is heard saying something “He wouldn’t”. But King knows better and keeps her in the ring with her where it is safe.
Shadow descends back up the rampway, never really giving his back to his children.
RW goes up running to him and asks “Shadow whats going on whyd you interefere?” Shadow still smiling only says “ A father knows best.”
And with that War fades to black…
