Showdown: Episode Forty Three - September 2013
----------------
Xtreme Wrestling Federation is at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia as "Showdown: Episode Forty Three" is on the air! Last week World Champion "The Elite Savior" Carlos Shotgun shocked the wrestling world when he made it appear as if Robert Mastro was going to receive his blessing as a new member of the Elite. We all found out otherwise when Shotgun lit Mastro's five hundred grand on fire and powerbombed him through a flaming table. Where does Crazy Kanook fit into this picture? Kanook spoke with Lars last show and vowed that he would be in attendance tonight! The Legion appeared to be on their way to winning Tables, Ladders, and Chairs before Xtreme Champion Pike "The Preacher" Lorenzo came out and dropped "The Beast" with a Holy Grail. In tonight's main event, Legion member Josiah Christiansen goes one on one with Lorenzo for the Xtreme Championship. Also we have Chris Benoit going to court with Judge Judy! That and much more!
----------------
We go to the front of the entrance where Mitch Keller is standing by with "The First Lady of the XWF" Ashton Storm.
Keller: Ashton..
The crowd is standing on their feet and cheering for the former Women's Champion.
Keller: You've had quite the history here being the greatest Women's Champion of all time. Ever since you've left..
Ashton: Ever since I've been gone, there hasn't been a Women's Division. There's a lot of people that would argue that the Women's Division was one of the big parts of this company's boom period Mitch and this company hasn't been the same since I left. But that's all done with. I've got something to talk about right now.
Ashton smiles.
Ashton: Rachael Manning. I don't care that you're part of the Legion. The biggest star of the Legion Dustin Holt has had an issue with me since day one because he can't stand that I'm much more popular than he is! He wanted to train Alexis Diamond to become the one to knock me off my throne and she couldn't get the job done. Let me clue you in on something Manning. You're not in Alexis Diamond's league, so what the hell does that make you?
The crowd cheers.
Ashton: So you want to be the big shot? How about you, versus me, at When World's Collide!
As the crowd cheers once again, Ashton gets clotheslined in the back of the head by Rachel Manning! The crowd starts to boo at the member of the Legion as Manning starts pointing at Ashton who's holding the back of her head.
Manning: You're on, bitch!
Manning walks off as the camera cuts backstage.
----------------
We go to the back where World Heavyweight Champion "The Elite Savior" Carlos Shotgun has just arrived. As he gets out of the back of his super duper black stretch limo we see a cloud of smoke floating out the door. The camera goes back to ringside.

Kazadine the Dark Prince vs CF Magnum
CF Magnum is down at ringside already with Wesley Valor talking in his ear. The lights dim and out comes Kazadine to some bizarre music. His daughter, Paige, is right by his side. Kazadine makes his way down to heat from the crowd and then when he enters the ring he get's face-to-face with CF Magnum. Valor and Paige are told to exit the ring and they do.

And CF Magnum waits for him to get up. Valor cheers his client on, clapping for him as Kazadine gets off the ground and Magnum goes for a Chokeslam. But Kazadine gauges at his eyes and tackles his knee out from under him. Both men are down and out comes Troy Martin from the top of the stage. He makes his way down and walks over to Paige. The fans are yelling at Troy and he ignores him. The commentators ask what he could be doing out here?

Troy Martin is on the outside and appears to flirt a little bit with Paige. Valor walks over to tell Troy to get the hell out of here!! CF Magnum leans over the ropes and points at 'em. But then Magnum turns right in to a Heart Punch delivered from Kazadine! CF Magnum goes down hard and Kazadine hooks the leg for a one, two, three!

Out of nowhere, in comes Robert Mastro with a steel chair and slides into the ring. He hits Stranger from behind with a sick chairshot. Stranger goes down as the referee calls for the bell. Just as Dimter gets up Mastro nails him right on the head knocking him out.
Winner by Disqualification: "Hounds of Hell" Dark Stranger
----------------
Robert Mastro clears the ring and demands a microphone. He seems to be somewhat deranged as he looks at the fans who give him a mixed reaction. He sets the chair on the ring and takes a seat after grabbing the microphone.
Mastro: I am sick and tired of being overlooked. I am sick and tired of being treated as if I was some sort of loser. Since I came to this federation I have done nothing more than inflict pain on everyone that has stood in my path. I have never backed down from a challenge. I have never backed down from a fight…
Mastro rocks back and forth as he continues.
Mastro: Last week The Elite put me through a table full of flaming money. Do you know why? Because they are afraid of me. They know how dangerous I can be. I am the man who sent Kanook to the hospital. I am the man who fed The Hellion to the crocodiles. I am the man who will destroy anyone who stands before me.
A sick smile grows on Mastro’s face.
Mastro: If there is something I enjoy is hurting people and after what happened last week… I have decided that my full devoted attention will go towards Chris Falkenyork and Carlos Shotgun. They dare cross me? I will drown them in their own blood if I have to. I will break Falkenyork. I will destroy Carlos Shotgun and after I do there will be little doubt as to who the real heavyweight champion should be.
Mastro drops the microphone and kicks down the chair before exiting to the back.

The camera cuts to a scene taped earlier in the day. We go to a court room where a plaintiff is walking down the aisle. The plaintiff takes a seat.
Narrative: Kevin Sullivan is suing Chris Benoit for damages done to private property and terroristic threatening. The plaintiff claims that Benoit drove through his driveway and smashed through the house before saying, and I quote, I will murder you.
Benoit walks into the picture and goes to his seat before both Benoit and Sullivan raise their hands in the air for Judge Judy. Judge Judy walks into the picture. Judge Judy is handed paperwork.
Judy: Kevin Sullivan.
Sullivan: Yes.
Judy: According to your complaint it shows here that Benoit smashed your front door in his POV before the terroristic threatening. I wouldn't say more than terroristic threatening Mister Sullivan. Considering the history between the two of you I was under the impression that talk like this is relatively normal wouldn't you say?
Benoit has a smirk on his face.
Judy: Is there something funny Mister Benoit?
Sullivan: Judge the threats were not the issue. When they filed the police report that's what they listed on there. I just want the front of my house fixed, ha ha.
Judy: Mister Benoit didn't we just speak to you not too long ago?
Benoit: Judy you have to realize that it's not easy being..
Judy: Excuse me?
Benoit: It's not easy being a..
Judy: I am the Judge! You refer to me as the Judge do I make myself clear?
Benoit: But I'm the executioner. At XtremeMania, I took out Carlos Shotgun. At Hell on Earth I was about to take out Chris Falkenyork but that little BOW Reject ran away before I had the chance to. Ask the Taskmaster over here. Sullivan! Glorious member of the Dungeon of Doom. Sullivan you had the privilege of finding out what the Crippler is all about!
Sullivan: Old news. I just want my house fixed. I'm not angry at you anymore. You putting Nancy on permanent vacation? It bought a smile to my face.
Judy: Lets move along here? Hello?
Benoit and Sullivan both turn their attention towards Judge Judy.
Judy: What are you looking to get out of this Mister Sullivan?
Sullivan: The damage to the front of the house. I want it fixed.
A court officer hands a photo over to Judge Judy.
Judy: We'll be right back.
We go back to the arena.

"The Franchise" Troy Martin vs "Hollywood Poet" Jive
"The Hollywood Poets" Jive, Swag and Slammaster are all standing in the ring and appear to be talking strategy. "The Franchise" Troy Martin is introduced and he comes out to mixed reactions. The two "Hollywood Poets" not in the match exit the ring and Jive waits for Troy to make his way inside the squared-circle. Commentators state they have been impressed with Troy so far and that "The Hollywood Poets" haven't been able to get it together lately. Jive and Troy eye each other from across the ring. The bell sounds and they immediately lock up in the center of the ring. Troy powers him back in to the ropes and gets a forearm up in his face. "The Hollywood Poets" yell at Troy and he tells them to shut up. Troy steps back and delivers a strong right hand to his body!

Jive falls against the ropes and Troy then whips him to the ropes and knees him in the gut as he bounces back. Troy is setting up for his finisher when suddenly Paige starts making her way down the aisle. Troy turns and stares out at Paige coming down the ring with a huge smile on his face. But as she gets close to the ring, Kazadine walks out from the curtain and Troy looks kind of unsure what is going on. That's when Jive sneaks up from behind and rolls him up for the schoolboy pin. One, two, three! Jive immediately rolls out of the ring and "The Hollywood Poets" celebrate together! Kazadine calls Paige back up the ramp with him to exit backstage. Troy rolls over and looks stunned.

I don't got a problem with you. I just wanted to say no hard feelings out there. Shit happens! This is the XWF after all and I never expected to go undefeated. Kazadine turns his head and looks at his daughter intently. Troy Martin: Infact Kazadine. I just wanted to compliment you on the nice streak you've been having recently. Kazadine: Thanks. Thanks, Troy. That's really big of you. Troy Martin: Hey, I'm "the Franchise" baby. I don't need to hold grudges. You know I came back here to tell you... as good of a wrestler you are... you're also a terrific magician. Kazadine "the Dark Prince" looks shocked as his ears perk up. Troy Martin: I was thinking. Why not give these people a real show? A magic show they've never seen before! These XWF fans deserve it after all! Kazadine: I agree. Not sure if these XWF fans really deserve it. But it's a good idea. What you think Paige? She shrugs and is about to answer when he barks at her and cuts her off. Kazadine: Arf! Arf! Troy steps in. Troy Martin: Don't worry. Don't worry! You'll nail it. Trust me. Kazadine: Yeah sorry you lossed out there but if you don't got anything better to do... maybe you'd like to be my assistant next week for the very first Kazadine Magic Show? Troy Martin: Wow. I'm flattered, really I am. He cringes at that idea, trying not to hurt Kazadine's feelings perhaps. Troy Martin: But while I may not be your assistant.. I think that's a job for Paige. And I'll tell you what. If it means that much to you... I'll be down at ringside to watch your show firsthand. What do you say? Kazadine: You promise? Troy Martin: I promise, scouts honor. He puts up two fingers and an innocent look creeps over his face. Kazadine: Good. Then it's settle... Troy Martin: Yes, I will be out there next week... we'll both be out there, me and Paige... and you of course. And the world will get to witness Kazadine's heart stopping Magic Show. Kazadine: Can't wait!
So it's settled as a graphic pops up on the screen. Next Showdown will feature Kazadine's Magic Show!

We go back to the court where Judge Judy is looking at a photo.
Judy: Is this a joke?
Sullivan: What?
Judy: A cardboard box. It doesn't look like Mister Benoit smashed through the front of it. It looks like he drove on top and flattened it.
Sullivan: What can I saw? It was difficult to tell at the time. The estimates on there cover replacement plus labor.
Judy: Didn't you make any money in Dubya See Dubya? What the hell is wrong with you?
Sullivan: What can I say? I spent many nights, many nights. Partying, drinking, snorting lines with the Nature Boy Ric Flair! He's actually a couple boxes down from where I live!
Judy: Mister Sullivan.
Judge Judy takes the photo of the cardboard box and crumples it up before tossing it behind her.
Judy: This is a court system and we're here to solve cases. This? This is a waste of time. Why didn't you just ask Mister Benoit for a new box? I'm sure it wouldn't have been an issue.
The camera cuts to a shot of Benoit who is staring at Sullivan while giving him the cutthroat gesture.
Sullivan: I try to not talk to him as much as possible.
Judy: I see.
Judge Judy looks over towards Benoit who is rubbing his hands together in a very creepy manner.
Judy: Mister Benoit you already pleaded guilty before this case opened so we could discuss some settlement.
Benoit: Yes.
Judy: Just give this Kazadine looking fool a new box okay? While you're at it can you murder him for wasting my time?

“Do the Evolution” by Pearl Jam plays as Carlos Shotgun makes his way out in front of the sold out crowd. He wears a fancy suit while holding the XWF title as he arrogantly walks down the ramp.
He walks up the steps and enters the ring before raising his world title belt up high in the air proudly. The fans start booing him heavily as he smiles and adjusts his sun glasses.
Shotgun: My name is Carlos A. Shotgun and I am YOUR XWF Heavyweight champion of the world.
“Shotgun sucks” chants start up as Shotgun laughs and continues.
Shotgun: And I stand here before all of you truly in a league of my own. I have grown untouchable. I am damn near infallible. I am The Elite Savior and I am your hero, your role model and the man whom you all came to see.
The fans continuing booing as Shotgun adjusts his suit jacket confidently.
Shotgun: Now you guys know me. I’m not one to brag, but the truth is at this point in time I stand alone on top of the mountain. Who can challenge me? Who can possibly pose a threat to The Elite? Robert Mastro? Is that the best the XWF can do?
Mastro receives a mixed reaction as Shotgun looks at the camera.
Shotgun: I already dealt with the so called Mastro problem. If he wants a shot at my title he can get to the back of the line like everyone else. As far as I’m concerned there is nobody, and I mean NOBODY who is even worthy of standing in front of my in this very ring, much less worthy of getting a title shot. That is why I am officially using my sick days and vacation time and I am taking the night off at When Worlds Collide…
The fans boo as Shotgun smiles confidently.
Shotgun: Make sure to call me when something relevant happens. Until then, you can find me with a bottle of Jack Daniels and a bong in some private island with nothing but the finest women and drugs. So if you’ll excuse me…
Shotgun sets down the microphone, taps his belt proudly and proceeds to walk the ropes when all of the suddenly "Oh Canada" by Classified begins to play. Shotgun freezes as the arena explodes. The entrance way fills with smoke and as it slowly dissipates we get a shot of The Crazy Kanook who stands on top of the ramp with crutches.
“Kanook” chants take over the arena as The Crazy Kanook smiles and limps down the ramp. Shotgun looks somewhat concerned as he picks the microphone and looks at Kanook who slowly enters the ring.
Shotgun: You must be lost Kanook. Just what in the hell are you doing here?
The “Kanook” chants are overwhelming as Shotgun looks around annoyed.
Shotgun: Don’t answer that. I know why you’re here. You want to congratulate me on my big title victory, don’t you?
Kanook scoffs and asks for a microphone.
Kanook: You really need to shut up Shotgun before something bad happens to you.
The fans cheer as Shotgun scoffs in disbelief.
Kanook: So it was you who sent Mastro after me, was it? I knew you weren’t man enough to face me head on. Guess what? I’m still here standing. You wanted someone relevant? You are looking at the fastest rising star in XWF history. You are looking at the man who main evented Xtreme Mania on his first year in this federation. Shotgun, I am more than relevant and I am standing here in front of you challenging you for the XWF heavyweight championship.
The fans chant “Kanook” as Shotgun is taken back. Kanook drops the microphone and stares at Shotgun.
Shotgun: I don’t think you get it Kanook. This is MY time. Let me guess. This is your attempt at playing the hero. You want to be the noble man who stands up to The Elite. How cute. Guess what? You fucked with the wrong man. You want a world title shot?
Shotgun kicks away one of the crutches and Kanook holds on to the other trying to keep his balance.
Shotgun: Look at you! You are pathetic! The only thing standing you up is that very crutch! And you want to challenge ME?
Shotgun smiles as he approaches Kanook menacingly.
Shotgun: Did you really think you could come to my ring and leave without consequence? I’m going to make an example out of you Kanook. Everyone who stands in front of The Elite will all and I want you to know… you brought this on yourself.
Shotgun kicks away the second crutch and Kanook remains standing staring at Shotgun. Shotgun looks at Kanook puzzled who smiles and nods nonchalantly.
