Opening Match - El Mito vs Kazadine

We cut to ringside where Kazadine is already in the ring and he is asking El Mito to 'pick a card'. El Mito shakes his head and refuses. Kazadine turns back to Paige, his valet and assistant on the ring apron. The referee calls for the bell and El Mito strikes him with a right fist to the face! And another hard punch. El Mito backs Kazadine up to the ropes and goes for an irishwhip, but Kazadine reverses it and sends El Mito off the ropes. Mito comes back in to a Back Elbow from Kazadine that rocks him down to the canvas! Kazadine makes the cover, with a forearm in his chin, one... two.. shoulder up!

El Mito struggles to his knees and goes to stand up, only to be met with an Ax Handle Smash! Kazadine goes for another pin. One... two.. kick out! Then Kazadine picks El Mito up again and this time delivers an Atomic Drop! El Mito hops around the ring, holding his butt and turns right in a Heart Punch attempt. However, El Mito side steps it and blasts Kazadine over the back of the head with a Round House Kick! El Mito falls with his back on Kazadine's chest. One.. kick out!!

El Mito backs up as Kazadine stumbles in to the corner. El Mito goes for a Stinger Splash, but he misses his mark and hits his head off top of the post-- he turns in to a Heart Punch delivered from Kazadine! He hooks a leg, one... two... three!

Kazadine rolls to a knee and poses with his arms stretched out. Paige rolls in the ring and has a large black cape with her. She raises it in the air and places around both of them, as it's as large as a sheet and it covers them both up. There's a smoke blast! And when the smoke clears, there's just a wrinkled up sheet on the ground and those two have vanished before everyone's eyes!

Winner by Pinfall: Kazadine

Backstage we have The Crazy Kanook speaking with his tag team partner, Blaze Rodriguez. The cameras catch up with them in the men's locker room and right in the middle of their conversation.

Kanook: "So what I'm saying is... tonight is another night for the Jager Bombers to put ourselves on the map! It's been a long time coming. Xtreme Battle Zone was just the start of something new..."

Blaze: "Yeah, but if you haven't noticed. I've been on quite the losing streak myself. Time to bounce back! Hey, when you think we can defend these Tag Titles again? It's been awhile."

Kanook: "Yeah, it has, hasn't it?"

They both spot a shot of Jager next to a glass full of Red Bull. They each grab a shot, drop it in and chug! They slam the mugs down and pick up the Tag belts that lay on the bench next to them.

Kanook: "As far as I'm concerned. I'll defend these Tag Titles... wherever... whenever! Tonight, I get to really shut the Original up on my road to Xtreme Mania!"

Blaze: "Congratulations again! If it couldn't be me... I'm glad it was you. Xtreme Battle Zone was quite the Battle Zone! But Xtreme Mania is the greatest stage of them all and you're in the main event against the World Champ! Though I wanted to defend the Tag Titles on the biggest stage... I think I could conjure something else up."

Kanook: "I'm sure you can buddy. There's plenty of time til Mania! But, another thing... about tonight. I already know you're in my corner! And I trust you won't get involved... unless you absolutely need to."

Blaze: "Oh I know that. I got your back! Jager Bombers stick together!"

Kanook: "That's right. And tonight, I'm going to split the Original wide open!"

Fades out on The Crazy Kanook's smiling face.

After the match we hear "Fuck the System" hit the arena as Lars Douglas makes his way out. Mastro looks happy to see the boss as he enters the ring. The music cuts out as Lars has a big smile on his face for all of his Canadian fans.

Lars: "I didn't like their poetry anyway. How's it going Robert? William?"

Lars shakes the hands of both members of SOS.

Lars: "So what's it going to be Mastro? What kind of match do you want?"

Mastro: "I want a Hell in a Cell match with Marcus Andrews's career on the line! At the next Showdown!"

Lars laughs while shaking his head.

Lars: "That's funny. Seriously what kind of match?"

Mastro: "I wasn't joking.."

The smile on Lars's face disappears.

Lars: "We talked about this earlier. I said that we would come up with something reasonable and not a double stipulation. I mean, you're probably the person at the supermarket that needs explanation as to why you can't double discount on coupons. It just doesn't work out that way."

Mastro: "Come on boss you know that you would enjoy watching Marcus get his ass beat as much as everyone else!"

Lars: "I agree with you! But we still run a business here."

Mastro: "I know."

Lars: "Think of this match. An Asylum Match."

Mastro: "A what?"

Lars: "You and Andrews locked inside a fifteen foot high steel cage. It's not Hell in a Cell but you can still fuck someone up in a steel cage! But on top of that, you guys get two things. A straight jacket, and a steel chair. Marcus is a little crazy, he likes to drink blood afterall. What better way to roleplay than to have you play the doctor and Andrews play the nutcase. Well he wouldn't have to play the nutcase cause he's already there. You wrap him up in the jacket, he tries to charge you and you just SMASH him with the chair OVER and OVER and OVER again how does that sound?"

Mastro: "You're a sick sick man Lars. I love it."

Lars: "Then we agree on this?"

Mastro: "Yes."

Lars and Mastro shake hands as the crowd pops. A man jumps over the railing with a chair. It's Marcus Andrews! Andrews chairs Knighthawk who falls to the outside. Mastro goes for a swing and takes a chair also. The SOS regroup on the outside as Lars slides out of the ring. Andrews grabs the microphone.

Andrews: "You think I'm crazy? Well fiddlesticks that's just a freakin understatement! You're ass is mine Mastro!"

Andrews taunts Mastro and Knighthawk who just smile it off. Mastro points towards Andrews.

Mastro: "You're going down Andrews! You can count on it!"

The camera cuts to a live via Satellite feed.

Standing by is Gotham City's Elite Savior, Batman. Mitch Keller is on conference with Batman.

Keller: "Batman, what is your opinion on efed wrestling?"

The feed cuts out as we go back to ringside.

"The Beautiful People" by Marilyn Manson cues over the arena as the crowd erupts.

Manic: "Hold on a second Chico. This is it!"

XWF Hall of Famer Chris Benoit makes his way out to another huge pop from the crowd. Benoit continues his walk down the eisle.

Manic: "Benoit making his Showdown return and what better place for that to happen than in Canada? Neither one of us were even in the company back when this man was dominating the squared circle here in the XWF."

Chico: "Everyone who has followed this company knows that Benoit retired after his battle with Carlos Shotgun at Xtreme Mania 2. The question now is why did he come back? Why did he choose now to do it? We're about to find out."

Benoit steps into the ring before pointing to each side of the arena and pumping his fists high in the air. Benoit signals for the music to cut off. Danielle Worley hands him the microphone before exiting the ring.

Benoit: "..."

Benoit lowers the microphone and looks around the arena again as everyone is still on their feet for the XWF Hall of Famer.

Benoit: "I've been away for too long. Now? I'm back."

The crowd pops once again.

Benoit: "A lot of people have been asking me since Xtreme Battle Zone why I did what I did. Why I came out and made a statement at the expense of Carlos Shotgun. I should not have to explain the history between myself and Carlos Shotgun. It was Carlos Shotgun at Xtreme Mania Two who handed me a loss in my final match. Well some people want to say that it was a passing of the torch. I don't pass torches. Chris Benoit does not hand people their golden ticket to becoming the biggest name in the history of this company!"

Benoit shakes his head.

Benoit: "But that's how history was written so it seems."

Benoit pauses for a moment while looking out into the crowd.

Benoit: "There are points in my life that I cannot change. In the XWF there ARE things that can change. There's many in this business with reason to never want to see Chris Benoit mentioned ever again. Carlos Shotgun is one of those people. He knows above everyone else that the only person that can change his legacy here in the XWF is The Crippler Chris Benoit!"

The crowd pops again.

Benoit: "And that's why, I have returned. Years and years of being just another top name, another XWF Hall of Famer. The one thing that made me considered just another name. Carlos Shotgun. Seeing how his career panned out it seemed okay, not a problem. But the parody of himself that he has become and yet people still hold him in high regard. It's time for him to remember what it was like, before he was given the right to take things easy. And as far as the rest of the lockerroom goes right up to the World Heavyweight Champion himself. Understand that Carlos Shotgun is only the start of Chris Benoit returning. That everything I just talked about will mean nothing if I do not take back something that's been away from me for too long. The XWF World Heavyweight Championship!"

Manic: "What?"

Benoit: "So Carlos Iron Bong Shotgun. Remember what it was like when you were considered nothing more than a BOW Reject? It wasn't fun I bet. I'm going to, give you credit that you are in fact better than that. But YOU are NOT better than ME! At Xtreme Mania Eight. Carlos Shotgun versus Chris Benoit, ONE.. MORE.. TIME!"

Manic: "Sounds good to me!"

Benoit: "I've been patient for many years. Not now Carlos. Don't keep me waiting."

Benoit drops the microphone as "The Beautiful People" by Marilyn Manson cues up over the arena.

People that hide in the darkness too afraid to come out and face the light. I will find all these people and I will put the fear of God in them, for God is good, God is mighty and God is everything.
