Opening Match: "The Las Vegas Playboy" Darren Romeo vs Mike Dimter - Xtreme Battle Zone Qualifyer
Mike Dimter is in the ring with his theme music playing, awaiting his opponent. He goes to get on a mic but before he can speak the Las Vegas Playboy's theme song kicks on! He comes out with a mic of his own and cuts Dimter off.
Hold it right there! Mike Dimter. As pathetic as you are. I'm about to walk away from this ring and never wrestle in the XWF ever again. They seem to have a problem with playing by the Playboy's rules. But one way or another... oh, to hell with it... if I must!
Romeo slides in the ring and before the referee can even ring the bell, it's Dimter kicking and stomping away at Romeo. Dimter puts the forearms to him and knees him in the head! Dimter steps back and hollers!! The crowd boos him as he goes to face Romeo and gets a kick to the mid-section.
Romeo follows that up with a quick Swinging Neckbreaker! He drops a quick elbow and goes for the 1... kick out! Romeo throws Dimter in a headlock and works him off the ground. Dimter shoves him to the ropes and Romeo bounces back and delivers a Shoulder Block. Dimter bounces back off the canvas and takes a straight Dropkick to the jaw! Romeo goes for a cover again and gets the 1... 2.. kick out! The AT&T Center has mixed emotions on this match right now.
Darren Romeo scoops Dimter off the ground and then sets him up for a Suplex. Romeo gets him off the ground and holds him there for a couple seconds. Dimter starts wiggling out of it and Romeo places him back down on the ground and then executes a brilliant Fisherman Suplex!! 1... 2... kick out at the last second!! Fans watching intently as Romeo gets angry and picks Dimter up by the head. Dimter starts punching his way out of it and hits him with a straight forearm to the chest! Dimter runs the ropes and goes for a Shoulder Block but Romeo stands his ground and instead yanks Mike Dimter in for "The Promise" (Double Arm DDT)!!! He rocks him with that move. And the fans mark out! But he doesn't go for the pin yet.
Chico and Manic are asking what Romeo is doing? Darren Romeo poses in the ring, and stands facing the camera as he points out towards either side of him, with a huge grin on his face. He lifts an extremely staggered Mike Dimter off the ground and sets him up for his finisher, "The Adrenalizer" (Release German Suplex)!!!!! Mike Dimter goes flying across the ring and smacks the back of his skull, and the rest of his back on the mat! "The Las Vegas Playboy" Darren Romeo walks over slowly and covers him up for the easy 1... 2... 3!!!
His theme music "Beast Within" by In This Moment blares over the loud speakers and the fans go wild for him!!! They are really pulling for Romeo to do well at Xtreme Battle Zone, despite any setbacks. The commentators mention how he is on his way, the first competitor officially entered in the Xtreme Battle Zone event this year.

Backstage and Blaze runs across Kanook in their locker room. Blaze: Hey! Kanook: What's up man? Crazy Kanook stands with his arms folded over his chest and an intense look in his eyes. Blaze looks at him with confidence and taps his shoulder. Blaze: Hey! How you feeling tonight? Kanook: Strapped. Blaze: "Strapped"? Kanook: Yeah, "strapped". Camera pans down to show the XWF Tag Team Titles wrapped around their waist. The XWF fans in the arena, watching on the screen, mark out hard. Kanook: So, about tonight... Blaze: I'm not worried... Kanook: Oh, I'm not worried. I'm saying.... Blaze: Hey! Don't give me that look. They'll be two Jager Bombers in the Xtreme Battle Zone this year.
Kanook: You think? After we took these titles at Jaded... I think we got a target on us. Blaze: We've always had targets on us. Kanook: This is true. So, you say we have one before we go qualify for XBZ? Blaze: One? Ha! They drop their shot of Jager in to their tall glass of Red Bull and chug. The fans pop for the Tag Team Champions.
----------------
The scene with Pike Lorenzo wearing his full preacher gear while holding a cup of holy wine. The Xtreme title rests comfortably on his shoulder as he begins addressing his loyal subjects.
Pike: "Blessed are thou my congregation. I am your preacher, the one and only Pike Lorenzo."
Pike gets a loud chorus of boos from the fans in attendance.
Pike: "As you all know the XWF will have a PPV in Los Angeles, California later this month. The name of the event is Xtreme Battle Zone. My loyal subjects, I ask you, is that a name the good lord Jesus would accept? I think not. The XWF is filled with ignorant barbarians who lust for blood and violence. These men know nothing of the Holy book and they sure don’t follow the path of our good lord Jesus. However, not everyone in this federation is an ignorant heathen. I am a man of the lord in case you haven’t noticed. I am the Xtreme champion which is why I am officially requesting the XWF change the name of the event to Xtreme Sportsmanship Zone."
The boos grow louder and louder as Pike shakes his head in disgust before looking up.
Pike: "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."
Pike closes his eyes and says a little prayer before continuing.
Pike: "This event should be based on pure wrestling ability, not blood, sweat and weapons. This event should showcase skill, not butchery and chaos. This is the way the lord would want it to be. When I go to Xtreme Sportsmanship Zone, and make no mistake about it my children, I will qualify for Xtreme Sportsmanship Zone, I will go on to win the whole thing and become the number 1 contender for the XWF Heavyweight title. I will not fail for I embrace the lord as my savior. The lord will lead me into the Promised Land like he has always done and I will rule this fed with dignity, pride and most importantly of all, faith and humility. I have faith that all of these analphabetic heathens booing me right now will one day see the light and quit their moronic ways. I have faith that everyone on the roster will give up their thirst for violence and instead adopt a thirst for Catholicism and prayer. The lord believes in all of you, no matter how dumb you are. E nomini patri, et Fili e spiritu sancti, amen!"
Pike chugs down the holy wine and smiles as the shot cuts to ringside.

A man with a leather jacket is standing with his back to the camera and his head down. Only the voice of the Unknown can be heard. Unknown: The XWF is my prized possession. I love her more than anything in the world! I'd give my life for her..... He stands up straight, still with his back to the camera. Unknown: I HAVE given my life for her! The XWF was the only friend I've known. I couldn't give her up. I wouldn't give her up... for anyone! So when I return to compete in an Xtreme Battle Zone qualifier next Showdown..... you will be one step closer to knowing everything it is you want to know about me. The man turns around and has on a black mask, with grey trimming. His leather jacket is open and exposes a black tank top. Unknown: Because though she'll never forget me. The XWF needs to be reminded who exactly it is... that I AM!!! I've been gone for awhile. But I'm back. I'm home. Where I belong! The Unknown walks off the set and the scene cuts to another area backstage. Mike Dimter is being dragged by the arm by Dark Stranger and Lady Gaga is there to help. They throw him up against the cage and get up in his face. Mike Dimter: What? What do you want? NO! I won't go back in that cage... I WON'T!! Dark Stranger: Funny. Because I think YOU WILL Dimter! Mike Dimter: I will not... The Dark Stranger grabs him by the throat and shoves him up harder against the cage he has set up in his locker room. Dark Stranger: Oh you will. They all become my puppet!

We cut to Lars Douglas's office as Marcus Andrews walks in. Lars has a look of distain written all over his face.
Andrews: "You wanted to see me boss?"
Lars: "Michael.."
Andrews: "It's Marcus! Marcus the Wolf Andrews!"
Lars: "Right. I don't know what you're trying to pull here. Changing your name or putting on a different persona is not going to change the fact that you're still the same guy! It doesn't change the fact that you have a match tonight tagging with Cliff Saxton to go against the Hollywood Poets!"
Andrews: "Why are you talking to me like this? I'm not stupid you know. I'm freakin smart! I can make this place a lot of money!"
Lars: "How so?"
Andrews pauses for a moment.
Lars: "Nevermind that. I see you're not dressed for action but it doesn't matter. You can either go out there tonight and compete, or you can find yourself ANOTHER JOB! Maybe you can be a rent a cop or a pizza delivery driver or something. Now get the hell out of my office."
Andrews: "But.."
Lars: "Now! Talking to a brick wall here."
Andrews turns around and exits the room. The camera cuts to ringside.

After the match Rage remains in the ring and asks for a microphone.
Rage: “I’ll get right to the point. I’m not going anywhere until I get what is mine. I will not leave this ring until those two punks Adkins and Original come down here and give me MY XWF Heavyweight championship title.”
The fans boo as Rage continues.
Rage: “I just picked up a 7 foot monster and jackknifed him into oblivion. I will destroy everyone in this arena until I get what is mine. Syndicate, get your asses out here. I am calling you out… right NOW.”
Rage stands in the ring looking up at the ramp and nothing happens. He grows angry and speaks again.
Rage: “This is your last warning. Either someone drags them out here or by god, I will start snapping necks, one by one. Come out here RIGHT NOW!”
Rage drops the microphone and steps over the top rope and jumps down. Danielle Worley looks in horror as Rage grabs her by the throat and throws her into the ring. She tries to run away but Rage holds on to her and grabs the microphone.
Rage: “Lars, they say this is your girl… if you want her to keep walking you will make sure those two pieces of shit get in this ring right NOW. I’m not kidding. I will do it. BRING ME MY TITLE BELT NOW!”
“Do the evolution” by Pearl Jam begins to play and the arena erupts. Shotgun walks out and goes directly to the ring. Rage lets go and Danielle immediately exits the ring into the arms of the announcers at ringside. Rage stares at Shotgun who stands across from him inside the ring.
Shotgun: “How pathetic of you.”
Rage: “Shotgun I swear to god I will break your back AND your neck. Don’t fuck with me. My business doesn’t concern you. Get out of here right now.”
Shotgun: “You have bigger problems than the Syndicate, bub. At Jaded you STOLE my pin. I was the rightful winner. I am the rightful number 1 contender. I told you I will not rest until I get my world title. I will not stop until I break you in half. Rage, name me the number 1 contender or I swear, I SWEAR I will…”
Rage: “You will what? You will put on an iron bong suit and blow me up? You will have your little bitch come in with a machine gun and have her shoot me? Please. I won at Jaded. I can choose whoever the hell I want so as far as I’m concerned you should watch your tone and be a nice guy for once because if you ask me really, really nicely I just might give you the title shot. How about it Shotgun? You’re the good guy aren’t you? These people love you. Their great hero, Iron Bong. Show them some manners, get down on your knees and beg me for the title shot and with God as my witness, I will grant you the match.”
Rage smiles as Shotgun looks at Rage coldly.
Shotgun: “Fuck you.”
Shotgun drops the microphone and charges at Rage when the lights go out and strobe lights blind the arena for a few seconds. The lights go out and a typing sound is heard as letters appear on the big screen.
WE...ARE...HERE!
- The Syndicate -
The screen switches to a shot in an undisclosed location with Mark Adkins and The Original who has the XWF Heavyweight title across his shoulder, the dry blood staining the main faceplate.
Adkins: “You two really need to get a room together and let out all that steam. You argue and bicker but you two want each other. Just accept it. The Syndicate doesn’t discriminate race, ethnicities or sexual preferences. We rule everyone equally.”
Shotgun and Rage are shown standing in the ring looking at the screen keeping their distance from one another.
Adkins: “We told you we were in charge. We told you nothing would be the same again. In one night we crippled the system. In one night we took the biggest prize in this industry and made it our own. You were warned and you still fell like morons. We have been playing you from the start. We have been biding our time… and look at us now. We have all the gold and you two? All you two have is your hate for each other.”
Adkins cackles as Rage is seen infuriated.
Original: “Hey Rage, see something you like? You talk about YOUR XWF title? I think you are confused. This isn’t your title. This is MY title. This is The Syndicate Heavyweight Championship. You see, we don’t answer to anybody. The XWF answers to us. WE own this place. WE run this place. You talk about choosing your opponent? Please, you don’t get to make decisions around here. WE do.”
Adkins nods and smiles as Original continues.
Original: “Now you had a good idea there with good old Carlos. As much as I would had loved to see him drop down to his knees like the unworthy piece of crap the he is I think I would much rather see The Modern Day Monster do it instead. You are so proud, so arrogant. You really think you are an elite killer, don’t you? You are nothing compared to The Syndicate. You want The Syndicate Heavyweight title, Rage? Drop down to your knees and beg for it. Drop down to your knees, accept you are nothing but a miserable loser and that you will never be anywhere close to The Syndicate’s league. Show us humility Rage and we just might repay you the favor. “
Original laughs out loud and pats the world title belt.
Rage: “As much as I hate Shotgun, as much anger as I’ve shown in the past, all of the darkness, all of the hatred, that is NOTHING compared to what I will do to you two. Mark my words, you will regret ever crossing me.”
Original: “Big words. We are not afraid of you Rage. WE are not afraid of ANYBODY. Next week we will be there at Showdown. The world deserves to see The Syndicate World champion in person. If any of you two have the balls, why don’t you show up and see what happens?”
Adkins: “See you soon…”
The feed turns to static as the lights come back up. Rage shakes his head and drops the microphone before looking at Shotgun. He waves him off and walks over the top rope and stands on the apron.
Shotgun: “Don’t you turn your back on me you miserable fuck.”
The fans pop loudly as Rage opens his eyes wide and turns around.
Shotgun: “I told you that you have bigger problems than the Syndicate. Give me my title shot or I will cripple you right here, right NOW.”
Shotgun drops the microphone and puts his fist up mimicking Rage. Rage immediately steps over the top rope and gets in the ring. He puts his massive fists up and screams at Shotgun to come at him. Shotgun puts his down and stares at Rage mouthing some words. The fans are electric when “Fuck the System” by System of a Down begins to play. Lars Douglas comes out and stands on top of the ramp with a real angry look on his face.
Lars: “Stop right there. I am really getting tired of playing babysitter for you two. I am sick and tired of everyone thinking they run things around here. The Syndicate says they are in control? Now there’s a joke. This is MY federation. I am the boss and all of you will both respect and love me for it.”
The fans start booing immediately.
Lars: “If any of you two lay a finger on each other I will suspend you for 60 days, do you understand me?”
Shotgun and Rage are visibly upset as they back down.
Lars: “Next week we will settle this once and for all. The Syndicate will be here next week? Good. I will be right there standing in front of them laying down the law and you two will come with me. We will settle this like men. “
Shotgun picks up a microphone and looks at Lars.
Shotgun: “You say you want to settle this like men but all I see is a little pussy standing on top of the ramp holding a microphone.”
The fans pop as Lars clenches his teeth in frustration.
Lars: “Spare me your little routine Shotgun. You seem to have a lot of fight in you. How about this? When was the last time your lazy ass even competed at Showdown? Next week you will have a match and I want to make this special. It’s time you stepped up and faced some fresh faces. I have a guy in the back who is so hardcore he cut off some guy’s finger for no good reason. Hopefully he will do the same to you. Next week it will be Carlos Shotgun versus good old Robert Mastro.”
The fans pop while Shotgun just rolls with it.
Lars: “Now if you survive that you can join Rage and I when we meet The Syndicate. Now get the hell out of my ring.”
“Fuck the System” plays as Lars makes his way to the back.

Lars: "Andrews what did I tell you? Why do you have to make things so goddamn difficult?"
Lars shakes his head in disgust.
Lars: "I have bigger things to worry about but you're just getting on my nerves now. So you don't seem to care about the idea of headlining a major Pay Per View.
