>>>>LAST WEEK>>>>>

Adkins: ...Me winning at Xtreme Battle Zone was no accident. It was meant to happen. Because the XWF is meant to end. The XWF is meant to die...

He holds the XWF Undisputed Championship gold up to the camera. But you can't tell it's gold, because the footage is completely in black n' white.

Adkins: ...At "XtremeMania 10". The so called, "Greatest Event Ever" will go down as the last night in XWF history. When I beat you for this. Retain this...

The XWF fans are booing, they can't believe their ears. Stranger is still watching on and Lady GaGa holds his hand for comfort.

Adkins: ...I'll take the XWF. I'll take what you all have grown to love. And I give it what it's been needing. No! What it's been craving for soo... sooo long. An injection, a VIRUS.

Adkins spins around in his chair and shows the "TV_MA" symbol spray painted white on the back of his chair.

Adkins: Bombshell... dropped.

Static appears on the screen. <<<<<<<

The video package ends as we cut backstage to Shangri-La Jester and a huge pop from the sold out crowd.

Gina Porter is shown standing next to him in a blue blouse.

Porter: Jester, everyone has been talking about what Rage did to you at Xtreme Battle Zone. Attacking you and ultimately costing you a chance to compete for the Undisputed Title. What exactly are your feelings regarding what took place this passed pay per view?

Jester: Well that's the reason why I'm here. I haven't had problems with Rage in a very long time. So whatever beef he has with me, I'm not quite too sure. The only thing is, it doesn't matter much to me what his excuse is. Rage crossed the line and he'll have to answer to me. And I fully plan on getting those answers tonight... if I have to drag Rage out there myself!

Jester walks off and has the arena buzzing as we cut to our opening video package and "Massacre" theme song.

-

We cut it to ringside with Manic, Chico and BJL ready to call the show.

Manic: Welcome to another installment of "Massacre".

BJL: Better enjoy it... we might not have anymore episodes left after our Champion walks out at Mania.

Manic: Well, we can't be too sure about that.

BJL: The hell you talking about? You heard him Manic. Adkins says he's walking out with the Undisputed strap and that the XWF is going to die at the conclusion of Mania.

Manic: Well that's assuming he would still be Champ, as he still must defeat Stranger, after he earned a title shot by winning the Xtreme Battle Zone.

BJL: You want to bet the farm on The Dark Stranger? You want to put the XWF in his hands?

Chico: Might not have any other choice. Stranger is a tough son of a bitch, we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Manic: That's right, because we have a lot on deck tonight! Some great tag team action. And the number one contender, Stranger goes 1-on-1 with Jericho in our main event. Let's send it to Danielle Worley in the ring to introduce our first match.

XWF Tag Team Champions, The Wreckin' Crew vs The Hollywood Poets - Non Title

The Hollywood Poets are already in the ring and then the XWF Tag Champs, the Wreckin' Crew is introduced next. Flip and Brute get a nice pop from the Salt Lake City crowd and they look on a mission tonight. As Jive and Swag go over last minute instructions with Slam Master in their corner.

Flip and Swag start it off as Flip gets upper hand and quickly starts working Swag over. He whips him off the rope for a back elbow, he body slams him and drops a leg over his throat and gets a two count. Flip tags in Brute and they double team him before Brute goes to work. Brute sends Swag off the ropes and Jive tags himself in but Brute clobbers Swag with a Discus Clothesline! And then catches Jive as he runs in with an over the head Belly to Belly Suplex that gets the crowd rowdy. Brute tags in Flip and they send Jive off the ropes and Brute lifts him up for a 3-D (Deleware Death Drop) and Flip plants him with their finisher as he hooks a leg and stares out in the crowd as they get the easy one, two, three!

Winner by Pinfall: The Wreckin' Crew

-

Flip grabs a microphone after and the Wreckin' Crew make a statement.

Flip: You know what? We are sick and tired of the weak competition around here! We have been dominating the tag team division for over a damn year. Hell we've been dominated since we first debuted. We're the baddest sum bitches on the planet. But that doesn't change the fact that we want some real competition. Hear that Lars? Hear that Luch? Lucente "the Greatest Event Ever" is coming up and it ain't going to be worth a damn if we aren't defending these belts against a team worthy fighting! So you better do your damn job. And get us a team worthy of challenging for the belts at Mania! Or it'll be your brain we're bashin'...

Flip drops the mic and the Wreckin' Crew head out to "The Pot" by Tool.

-

Out of nowhere Japanese drumming is heard over the PA system sending confusion across the crowd.

Manic: What in the world is this?

Chico: This might be the guy we've heard about, Masaru Yoshi!

Suddenly the curtain is tossed back and a Japanese man in a smart black suit steps out onto the ramp with a microphone in hand.

Junichi: XWF! My name is Junichi and I am here to assist you all with welcoming in a new era of professional wrestling!

Junichi lowers the mic and smiles out to the crowd who appear displeased at his demands. Unfazed, Junichi raises the microphone once more.

Junichi: Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce to you The Eastern King… MASARU YOSHI!!!!

The Japanese drumming is heard once more as another Japanese man steps out from the curtain. He is a much larger and imposing figure dressed in a decorative, colourful gown. His face is serious as he looks out to the arena. Junichi bows to Masaru Yoshi, who nods his head back to Junichi and the two of them walk down the ramp. Junichi paces ahead of Masaru Yoshi who looks out at the fans almost in disgust. The crowd boo and jeer the Japanese men as they climb the steps and enter the ring.

Junichi: Cut the music!

The men stand in the ring waiting for the music to stop. Junichi paces restlessly inside the ring whilst Masaru Yoshi stands motionless in the centre of the ring with his arms crossed.

Junichi: Many of you people do not know it yet, but today marks a very special day. In years to come people will ask ‘where were you the day that The Eastern King arrived in XWF?’ and all over you here today have the honour of saying you were here at Massacre 31. The birthplace of the Masaru Dynasty!

Junichi: Today you will all bow down and honour Masaru Yoshi. The future of XWF! To defy us is to insult us and The Eastern King whilst honourable will show no mercy to those that spit in our faces.

Junichi lowers the mic, awaiting the thousands in attendance to bow in respect of Masaru Yoshi. Junichi can be seen getting visibly angry when the crowd fail to follow his orders and boos begin to call out from the crowd causing Junichi’s anger to flare further.

Junichi: BOW DOWN SCUM! BOW DOWN TO THE EASTERN KING!

This only causes a hail of boos to rain down on the duo inside the ring. Masaru Yoshi remains unreactive to the abuse directed towards him as he stands motionless still inside the ring whilst Junichi furiously stomps around the ring yelling to nearby fans.

Junichi: You people will bow down to Masaru Yoshi if you know what is good for you! To defy my order is to defy Masaru Yoshi directly and there will be no mercy shown! Must we show you?!

Just then, Junichi signals to the backstage area and a young, terrified looking Japanese man is thrust out from behind the curtains. He stands at the top of the ramp, almost trembling as he looks down at Junichi and Masaru Yoshi inside the ring. Junichi points to the ring mat and the terrified man cautiously makes his way down the ramp and climbs inside the ring. He stands in front of Junichi visibly scared only to have Junichi order the man to bow in front of Masaru Yoshi. The scared man bows deeply. Masaru Yoshi’s eyes turn to Junichi, who grins a huge, menacing smile and nods his head. On this, Masaru Yoshi shoots his arm upwards, discarding the gown to reveal his large muscular frame. Masaru grabs the terrified man who’s head is still lowered from bowing and put it between his legs. Junichi then raises his arms and screams “BAKUDAN!!” and Masaru hoists the young man up onto his shoulders before driving him down hard with a sitdown powerbomb! Masaru Yoshi stands up emotionless whilst Junichi who’s outbursts of maniacal laughter speak for both men.

Junichi: SUBETE NO KYORYOKUNA! MASARU YOSHI! (All Powerful! Masaru Yoshi!)

On that, the Japanese drumming of Kiyoshi Yoshida’s “Rising Sun” plays out once more and both Junichi and Masaru Yoshi exit the ring, not before Junichi snatches up Masaru Yoshi’s discarded robe. The pair make their way back up the ramp amidst a sea of boos from the crowd until they disappear backstage.

-

Cameras cut backstage to Y2Blaze and they go over strategy for tonight.

Jericho: What the hell was that? Masaru Yoshi? Yoshi? Did that guy say he was named Yoshi?

Blaze: Pfft. Yeah.

Jericho: The only Yoshi I know is a little dinosaur that swallows apples for a living.

Blaze: Yeah, you know what? You know what you should do Chris?

Jericho: "It"?

Blaze: No, no, not "it". Well you could do that too. But put HIM on your list... do it... do .. "it".

Jericho: "List"? List? Blaze? What list? Listen, I don't have time for list. I got it all up here pal. In the Jericho vault. Locked away.

Jericho points at his head and Blaze nods along.

Blaze: Well good. Then people you'll remember that it was Trotter who pinned you at Battle Zone and Stranger who pinned me. So, you need to get revenge for me, by beating Stranger tonight in the main event! And I'll do you a favor... by taking out the trash, when I flex my muscle on Derrick Trotter in a second.

Jericho: Okay, okay. You're on. Y2Blaze looks out for each other. Y2Blaze is all the rave! And tonight, we go 2-for-2 and we show all these people why... those two ruined everything! They spoiled "The Greatest Event Ever". They robbed everybody! And tonight, we change Lucente's mind. We make him change the main event and put us in a triple threat against Adkins at Mania, or hell, maybe even next week.

Blaze: You think Lucente would do that?

Jericho: You saw what Adkins said last week. Lucente is desperate. He can't rely on Stranger. No way! He needs a backup plan... and we're it. Y2Blaze will be the saviors.

Blaze: I knew there was a reason I teamed up with you! You're always thinking. Good. Good! Now time to showcase to the boss what Y2Blaze really got.

Blaze starts to walk off as Jericho looks extra pumped up tonight.

Jericho: Yeah! Yeah! That's the spirit! Go get him! Go get him kid. Trotter is about to go down in a Blaze of Glory. Oh yeah baby!

Jericho smiles as he watches his partner exit the locker room and head for the gorilla position.

-

Back to ringside for the next contest.

Derrick Trotter vs "The Wonderful" Blaze Rodriguez

Trotter comes out first to a nice ovation and he actually gets on the stick.

Trotter: Hello everyone!

A great pop from the crowd.

Trotter: I just wanted to let you all know. That despite dropping the Undisputed Title a few months ago. Despite not getting a fair rematch. And taking that tough loss at Xtreme Battle Zone. That I've actually been doing pretty good. I have my mind focused. I'm ready to set the stage for XtremeMania 10 and make it Greater than the Greatest. And I'll be doing that, like I do every night, like I'm about to do to Blaze Rodriguez tonight. He's about to be "Trottered".

The crowd cheers for Trotter as Blaze's music hits and he comes out looking pretty annoyed. He swipes hands away as the fans try to touch his chest but he isn't having any of it tonight. He pulls himself up in the ring and points across at Trotter. Blaze looks angry and yells for ref to call for the bell. He charges at Trotter and Trotter decks him with a right. Blaze back up and another hard right takes him down. Trotter whips him and Blaze ducks a clothesline but takes a back elbow to the jaw and then rolls out of the ring grasping his face in obvious pain.

Chico: Hahaha. Serves him right.

Manic: I believe he just got "Trottered".

BJL: What the hell does that even mean?

Trotter goes outside but Blaze rakes the eyes and throws him in the barricade. Blaze stomps away and goes to roll him in the ring but Trotter elbows him and then whips him right in to the steps. Blaze's shoulder crashes in to them and he lays there a moment before Trotter rolls him in the ring. Trotter starts climbing up top and fans rise to their feet. Blaze starts to stagger to his feet and he takes a Shoulder Block from the top.

BJL: Battering Ram!

Trotter goes to hook a leg but Blaze kicks out before the three!

Crowd: Twooo!

Trotter stays on the offensive and whips him in the corner. He goes to work on him and eventually drops him with an Aztec Suplex but Blaze gets a shoulder up at two. Trotter goes for a whip but reversed, Blaze misses with a big ring hand and Trotter turns around and dropkicks Blaze out of the ring. The crowd cheers as Trotter goes for a Suicide Dive and it connects to a pop from the Utah fans.

Manic: Trotter is rolling tonight.

Trotter goes to whip him in the post but Blaze reverses it and Trotter's shoulder smacks the post. Blaze grabs him and rolls him in the ring. Blaze takes a second to recover as he pulls himself on the apron. Trotter reaches over to grab his hair and Blaze grabs Trotter's bad arm and drops it over the top rope. He then goes for a Springboard Forearm but Trotter pops up with a Dropkick that hits him in the chops. The crowd cheers as Trotter goes for the cover and gets the one, two, three!

Trotter raises his arms and poses on the corner as Jericho suddenly comes out and he pulls his friend, Blaze out of there but not before having choice words with Trotter.

Manic: I see there's no love loss with these two...

Chico: Nor should there be. Trotter cost Jericho the main event of XtremeMania 10.

BJL: In other words, Y2J was Trottered.

Chico just stares down the table at BJL.

Winner by Pinfall: Derrick Trotter

Jackson Galaxy is shown backstage in Ki Morbid's locker room.

Morbid: So? What can I do for you?

Galaxy: Listen. I'm new around here. I get it. I'm not always in the loop. But, I don't want to leave anything to chance. Tonight we tag up and I want to know if I can trust you tonight?

Morbid: Alright Jackson, I get it. Last week I tripped you up and cost you a chance at getting your first title shot in the XWF. But I promise. It wasn't personal last week. Not at all, it was just unfinished business with Ashton. I think you'd understand?

Galaxy: No I do. I do, I do understand. Because I'm not finished with Brice Chambers yet either.

Morbid: Good.

She sticks her hand out and Galaxy takes a second but he shakes it as we cut to ringside.

-

Mr. Lucente theme music hits and the fans go wild as everyone rises to their feet. He walks down with a certain cocky strut as he has a microphone and doesn't hesitate to get some things off chest.

Luch: How you all doing tonight? Salt Lake City, yeah!

Huge pop from the hometown crowd.

Luch: Well let's not waste anymore of your time. I'm here to talk about..... TV MA... Mark Adkins!

Mixed reaction, but mostly boos from the XWF fans who heard at the conclusion of Massacre last week that he wants to kill the XWF off.

Luch: Adkins dropped a bombshell last week. I'm here to drop one of my own.

The crowd's buzzing.

Luch: But first. But first, before we discuss the XWF Undisputed Championship. Let's talk about the XWF Tag Team Titles! Let's talk about the 5-time Champions, the Wreckin' Crew!

Fans cheer for the tag champs.

Luch: They were out here earlier, and they're right. They are absolutely right! They deserve the best. They deserve the best competition we can find. Therefore starting next week, we will be having a Tag Team Tournament to determine the new number one contenders for the XWF Tag Team Titles!

The crowd cheers for that announcement.

Luch: And at XtremeMania 10, it'll be the Wreckin' Crew defending the XWF Tag Team Titles against the winner of this tournament! Now, now that the XWF Tag Titles have been addressed. It's time to talk about something more important that is going to take place next Massacre.

Lucente pauses for dramatic effect as fans contemplate what is happening.

Luch: Next week, on Massacre! I have decided to grant Robert Mastro his rematch for the Undisputed Title!

The crowd goes nuts. And suddenly Mastro's music hits and he comes out to a tremendous ovation. Lucente looks him over and tells him to grab his own mic and Danielle Worley hands him one through the ropes.

Mastro: Lucente. I must say. I'm a little surprised. I didn't expect you to see the error of your ways. Yeah, I was screwed at Xtreme Battle Zone. But you know, you won't regret this. I'm going to do you proud. You know that right?

Lucente looks at him seriously as he takes a step towards him.

Luch: You better, because right now, you're the last hope.

Mastro: In that case, you can consider Adkins the newest resident of Piledriver City!

Mastro throws his arms out to the side and yells out at the crowd as Lucente tosses his mic out the ring and heads towards the back with an unsure look on his face.

-

Manic: What an announcement!

Chico: I can't believe it! Did he say the Undisputed XWF Title defended next week, on Massacre?

BJL: What are you deaf Cheek-o's? That's exactly what he just said. Next week, he's putting the screws to Adkins, he's forcing him to defend his title before XtremeMania!

Chico: Yeah, well maybe Adkins shouldn't have shown his cards so soon. No way Lucente is risking having the XWF Undisputed Champion walk out on him on the greatest stage of them all.

Manic: Well it's official. Next Massacre it'll be Adkins defending his belt versus Mastro in our main event. What an incredible change of events!

We cut to a video package for "XtremeMania 10".

From Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan

It's "the Greatest Event Ever"

"XtremeMania 10"

Featuring musical guest, Kid Rock,

-

Backstage we have the "Super Duper Super Heroes" sitting down on their bench together.

Super Steve: So what you think kid?

Super Tide: I know, I know we blew our shot before. But wow, we really need to get in this tournament. I want another crack at the Tag Titles!

Super Steve: Tell me about it. The Wreckin' Crew aren't fit to be Champions. They're not role models like you and I Tide.

Super Tide: But Steve, your behavior this year...

Super Steve: I know. I know. I lost my senses. The Wreckin' Crew were just so low down, dirty and ruthless. I didn't want to come off weak. I didn't want to give them a leg up.

Tide contemplates if he can trust Steve.

Super Steve: I'm sorry. I'm sorry, alright Tide? I need you. I need you now more than ever. If that means putting away them Steveweisers for good. If that means throwing on a cape with you, whatever you need me to do.

Super Tide: Silly Steve, you can't fly.

Super Steve: But--?

Super Tide: No buts. I'm hearing what you're saying Super Steve. But if we do this, we do this the Super Duper Super Hero way, or we don't do it at all.

Super Steve: Take a look around. Adkins wants to bring this place to the ground. The Wreckin' Crew doesn't respect anybody in the tag division, running around talking about bashing people's brains in... it's grotesque. The XWF needs better. The XWF deserves better. The XWF needs you Tide.

Super Tide: No....

Steve hangs his head in shame.

Super Tide: The XWF needs.... us.

Steve shoots his head up and has a shit eating grin on his face.

Super Steve: Yeah? Yeah? The Super Duper Super Heroes taking one more crack at those XWF Tag Team Titles?

Super Tide: Three time Champs?

Tide puts out an "ok" symbol, flashing those three fingers with his right hand as Steve sticks up an "ok" symbol with his left hand and they touch the "o's" together and then pull their hands back as they get excited for another possible run at the Tag Team belts.

Super Steve: Three time Champs! "The Super Duper Super Heroes" cleaning up the streets yet again.

Super Tide: Suuuuper!

Tide gives a huge thumbs up to Steve and he laughs as he pats his partner on his back and we cut to ringside for our next match.

FTW Champion, Ashton Storm & Brice Chambers vs Ki Morbid & Jackson Galaxy

Galaxy and Chambers start it off as Galaxy gains the advantage early on. He takes it to Chambers with hard forearms and nails a couple Suplexes. Chambers breaks free from a possible Texas Cloverleaf to make the tag to an unsuspecting Storm. By rule, Morbid steps in the ring and Galaxy reluctantly steps outside. Storm didn't understand the rules and refuses to get in the ring.

Manic: Mixed tag team action here tonight, not Intergender rules.

Storm keeps yelling at the ref and even gets mad at Chambers for tagging her in. Meanwhile, Morbid gives chase on the outside and Storm slides in and stomps away on Morbid before dropping an elbow and going for an early pin. Morbid kicks out at one!

Storm wears her out with a sleeper hold but Morbid works to her feet, elbows her in the mid-section and takes off to the ropes. Morbid nails her with a shoulder block. Morbid goes for a clothesline but Storm ducks it and dumps her over the top rope. Morbid lands on the apron. Storm turns around and gets punched by her. Morbid then launches a shoulder at her mid-section and that stalls Storm but Storm suddenly goes for a Springboard Dropkick that sends Morbid crashing to the ground below. Storm goes for a top rope Crossbody that connects on the outside. Storm grabs her by the hair and rolls her in the ring. She goes for a cover but it's a kick out by two.

Manic: These two have a heated rivalry that stems back to 2012. They are two of the best athletes, as you've seen on display here tonight.

Chico: Two of the best Manic. But Storm in control of this one.

Storm throws her in the corner and chops her across the chest a few times. Storm whips her across to the other corner and Galaxy tags himself in. Storm argues with the referee but he's telling her to get out the ring.

Chambers and Galaxy entering and the crowd is buzzing as they go to lock up. Chambers starts to work him back to the corner but Galaxy spins behind him and plants him with a Bridging German for the one, two and a kick out the last second. Galaxy pops up and dropkicks Chambers back in to the corner. Galaxy rushes in with a Sitdown Dropkick, he pulls him away from the ropes and hooks a leg but he only gets a two count.

Chico: You know I've been impressed by Spaceman, Jackson Galaxy, right?

Manic: I think the entire XWF fan base is thrilled with what they've seen from this young man thus far.

Galaxy stays in control and whips Chambers in the corner. He goes for a Stinger Splash but Chambers ducks out of the way and Galaxy's head bounces off the top turnbuckle, allowing Chambers to roll him up for the one, two but he's able to kick out. Storm goes after Morbid on the outside and they start battling. London Martini comes from behind Morbid however and clubs her in the back, allowing Storm to drop her with a DDT.

Meanwhile both men back up in the ring, Chambers misses with a hard right and Galaxy catches him with an Atomic Drop, followed by a clothesline that takes him down. Galaxy goes for a standing 450 Splash and drills it for the cover but the referee is yelling for Martini to get away on the outside and for Storm to get back in the corner. Galaxy notices the ref isn't counting and stands up to confront him and to tell Storm to break it up. Chambers sneaks up from behind as Galaxy turns at the last second and ducks a clothesline attempt. Chambers hits the ropes and looks furious he missed Galaxy as he spins around and Galaxy charges with a Running Knee out of nowhere! He covers Chambers up and the crowd chants along as he gets the one, two, three!

The crowd gives Galaxy a great ovation for earning his team the win tonight. Galaxy raises his hands up and just ignores what's going on between Morbid and Storm on the outside. But Martini is holding Morbid's arms behind her back as Storm chops her across the chest and finishes her off with a Bitch Slap. The crowd gives her and Martini lots of heat as she looks up to notice her partner lost the match. She starts to bad mouth Chambers as he's crawling up the ropes.

Storm: You're pathetic. You know that? You're pathetic!

The crowd boos her louder and she turns to face them all.

Storm: You're all pathetic! Bow to your Queen. All Hail the Baddest Bitch on the planet!

She gets nothing but heat from the rowdy fans in attendance as she makes her way to the back with her bodyguard, Martini by her side.

Winners by Pinfall: Jackson Galaxy & Ki Morbid

Bob Levy comes to Stranger's locker room, he enters but it's pitch black. He waits a moment but he decides to walk in anyway. He seems scared when suddenly a red light turns on and Levy screams.

Levy: Ahhhh!

He sees Stranger who grabs him by the collar.

Stranger: Poor Levy. Why did you let yourself in to the Demon's Domain?

Levy: No one has been able to get a word with you since you won Xtreme Battle Zone this year and earned your shot at the Undisputed Title at XtremeMania 10.

Stranger: There's nothing to say. Have you known me to be a man of many words Levy? Have you known the "Heel from Hell" to be much of a talker? No. No. That's because actions speak much louder than my words ever could. My actions had the crowd chanting for me at "Xtreme Battle Zone".

The crowd can be heard cheering in the EnergySolutions Arena.

Stranger: My actions at Mania and on the road to Mania will speak volumes!

Crowd cheers some more. As Levy looks almost terrified now.

Stranger: Because I'm going to destroy everyone and everything in my path until that XWF Title belt is mine. If anybody is worried that Adkins is walking out of the company with the title, they don't have to worry because it'll be the Demon of Destruction who will be the owner of that strap by the end of Mania and there's not a damn thing Adkins can do to prevent that. There's nothing anyone can do!

Levy: Wha-- what about Lucente announcing an XWF Undisputed Title match next week with Adkins giving a rematch to Mastro in the main event of Massacre?

Stranger: Did you not hear me Levy? Should I drop you like Shotgun did last week? I said, "there's nothing anyone can do!" That means it doesn't matter if Mastro happens to win that belt, end this charade before it gets started. Because weather it's Adkins or Mastro, whoever the champ is, at Mania, I .. will end... them!

With that he shoves Levy out in the hall and slams the door on him.

-

We cut back to ringside with the commentators discussing what they just saw.

BJL: That's the man we're entrusting in at "XtremeMania 10" to save the XWF?

Chico: I think he's got a chance regardless of who is the Undisputed Champion going in to that night.

Manic: Yes, as we learned next Massacre the XWF Undisputed Title will be on the line. Adkins versus Mastro in a rematch from "Xtreme Battle Zone". If you include the World Title, the XWF Championship belt has changed hands 3 of the last 4 times on "Massacre". If Mastro were to pull it off, this would be the 4th title changed that has happened live on Massacre. It's incredible. Besides Adkins winning the belt at Xtreme Battle Zone, and Trotter merging the Xtreme and World Title at King of Xtreme to form the Undisputed Championship. The last time the belt switched hands at a pay per view was May of 2014... when Adkins won the belt from Jester at "Jaded".

Chico: Quite the history lesson there...

Manic: Well it bares repeating. The XWF Title has change hands quite a bit on Massacre, Mr. Lucente definitely threw a wrench in the system and you have to believe that has screwed up the plans Adkins had to quote-unquote "kill off the XWF" by "injecting it with a virus".

BJL: The virus has already been injected. If you think Robert Mastro is going to stop the Apocalypse, you're dead wrong!

Manic kind of shakes his head as we cut backstage.

-

Ashton Storm enters Mr. Lucente's office as he sits fidgeting behind his desk.

Storm: Mr. Lucente. Just the man I wanted to see. I heard what you said earlier about the Tag Titles and I'm here to tell you that I would like to go for them. I figure time to add some more gold.

Luch: You think it's time to add some more gold aye?

Storm: Yeah, the queen should be decked out in gold.

Luch: Well, you have certainly earned it. But there's just one slight problem... I'm not sure you're going to like who I pick as your partner if you're to enter this.

Storm: Oh come on. Don't stick me with Chambers again. I would like if Martini could be my partner instead.

Luch: Afraid not. You see, I saw that you and Chambers had problems out there earlier. Couldn't get on the same page. But this person I have you tagging up with... you've had your problems with for a long time. But, it's time to finally put the differences aside for a common goal.

Storm: Just what in the hell are you talking about?

Luch: I think you know where I'm going with this Ashton. Next Massacre, I'm going to stick you with Ki Morbid to take on the Super Duper Super Heroes.

Storm: No! No! You can't! You can't do this!

Luch: "Can". And I just did... and you should learn to play nice, if you hope to add another title to your name. Good luck next week!

Storm: Ugh!

She pouts on her way out the door as Lucente smiles to himself.

Main Event - The Dark Stranger vs "Y2J" Chris Jericho - Xtreme rules

Jericho is out first to a solid mixed reaction from the crowd. He doesn't look bothered by any of it. The lights dim low as fire explodes from the ramp and the arena turns red as The Dark Stranger appears from the curtains. He makes his way down, intimidating everyone here tonight. He pulls himself up on the apron and steps over the top ropes. He throws his arms down in the center of the ring as fire explodes from all four corners, scaring Jericho as he rolls out of the ring and looks ready to hightail it out of there already. Jericho walks over and pleads his case with BJL.

BJL: I hear you. I hear you. It is unfair! It is unfair. Giving the damn guy fire to play with... what the hell kind of Champion would this guy make. We'd be better off with the company dead than having him burn it to the ground. Gaw-ly!

Chico: Do you hear yourself sometimes?

BJL: I hear a fart whenever you open your mouth... or is that you talking out your ass?

Chico: One of these days.

BJL: Yeah, one of these days compadre.

Chico ignores BJL as Jericho finally builds the courage to slide back in the ring as the referee calls for the bell.

* ding ding ding *

Jericho immediately slides back out of the ring and gets some heat from the crowd anxious for more action. Stranger starts to get upset and starts yelling at the ref and trying to call Jericho back in the ring.

Manic: It is Xtreme Rules, so there is no countout.

Chico: I think that's his problem right now. Stranger upset, Jericho with a unique strategy early on.

BJL: Should arm himself with a chair to feel better about himself.

Stranger finally makes his way out of the ring as Jericho starts running around to avoid him. And then slides in the ring, Stranger pulls himself up on the apron and Jericho runs across the other side and rolls out of the ring, to the crowd who is both booing and laughing at him as he crawls under the ring.

BJL: Where the hell is he going?

Stranger is about to step over the ropes and get him but instead walks back to the opposite side of the ring and looks over the ropes as he sees Jericho eventually crawling out from under the ring apron. Jericho thinks he's outsmarted Stranger and Stranger reaches over and grabs him by the head but Jericho pulls a fire extinguisher out and sprays the fog in his face. Jericho then climbs in the ring with it and cracks it over Stranger's back. But Stranger whips his head around, grabs Jericho by the throat, causing him to drop it and Stranger shoves Jericho back in the corner. He starts firing shots at his mid-section and then a stiff uppercut that sends Jericho up almost over the top rope. Stranger backs up and sprints in, clobbering Jericho in the corner. He whips him the opposite corner and Stranger runs full speed ahead, smashing Jericho in the corner yet again. The crowd loves it and Jericho is dazed as he takes a few empty swings and is met with a Big Boot to the face. Stranger goes for the pin. One, two, and a shoulder up.

Crowd: Twooo!

Manic: The Monster, giving it to Jericho.

Chico: Jericho thought he outsmarted the Demon of Destruction, but he's entered the Demon's Domain now and there's no exit.

Jericho tries to crawl out but Stranger drags him by his foot and Jericho ends up kicking him in the face. Jericho off the ropes, ducks a clothesline but catches Stranger with a Springboard Back Elbow. Stranger is starting to get back to his feet.

Jericho: Bulldog baby!

Jericho goes for his signature move but Stranger shoves him off with that Bulldog and Jericho gets crotched on the second turnbuckle. He is setting legs spread, with the post in between and looks to be in pain. The fans taking joy in his displeasure. Stranger peals him back out of the corner and drops him with a huge Suplex. He covers him up for the one, two and a kick out at the last second!

Chico: How is Jericho still in this thing? Stranger beating the holy hell out of him thus far in this Xtreme rules match.

Manic: Jericho, the first ever Grand Slam Champion, having his hands full tonight with the man who will be challenging for the Undisputed Title. We thought it was set in stone, Stranger versus Adkins. Tonight we learned that's not true.

Chico: Yeah but BJL going to be eating his words here soon enough. Because Stranger does have what it takes to beat Adkins, or Mastro, whoever it may be. You heard it from his own mouth here tonight.

BJL: Oh "his own mouth". Well that's good.. whatever the hell you could understand under that muffled mask of his. Stranger is not the caliber of these men. Let's be real.

Chico: They said that when he entered the Xtreme Battle Zone this year, nobody gave him a chance.

BJL: And to his credit, but this is "the Greatest Event Ever". Not some damn free for all.

Stranger stays in control with more stiff shots in the corner and a few side slams. Jericho still manages to kick out before the three count each time. Stranger sends Jericho flying over the top rope to the outside and goes out after him. Jericho crawls under the ring again and as Stranger goes to the opposite side to cut him off. Jericho sneaks back out the way he came in and he rushes over to the commentators table, trying to hide behind Manic and Chico as Stranger spots him and makes his way over.

BJL: Well don't bring the damn Monster over here!

Chico: Oh now he's a Monster now?

BJL: Oh would you shut up?

Jericho grabs Manic out his chair.

Manic: No, no..

Jericho shoves Manic at Stranger and Stranger grabs him and looks him over a second, before simply tossing him aside but Jericho runs up and decks him with a right hand and a kick to the mid-section. Jericho then grabs a steel chair, folds it up and hits him in the stomach with it before ramming it over his back. He slams it over his back once more and slides the chair in, before attempting to roll Stranger in. But Stranger headbutts him and then uppercuts him. Stranger slams his head off the apron and then rolls Jericho in the ring.

Chico: Jericho's in trouble now.

Stranger starts to get in the ring when the crowd starts stirring and Adkins hops over the rail behind Stranger, drilling him in the back of the head. He then slams Stranger's head off the post, before rolling him inside the ring. Adkins gets in, grabs the chair and smashes it over Stranger's back. He smashes him again and then Stranger whips his head around, tilting his head looking at Adkins and the fans can't believe it. Stranger is almost asking for it as Adkins cracks him hard as he can over the head with the steel chair and Stranger staggers in to Jericho who connects with the Codebreaker! He looks up at Adkins as he makes the cover. One, two and he gets the three!

Jericho rolls off Stranger and looks Adkins over. The fans are buzzing in the arena as Jericho takes a step closer to Adkins and Adkins just sticks his head up and stares back at him. Jericho smirks at Adkins, his old partner from "The Syndicate" days and he rolls out of the ring without incident.

Winner by Pinfall: "Y2J" Chris Jericho

Fans are stirring as XWF Undisputed Champion, "TV MA" Mark Adkins goes to sit down in that steel chair but Stranger raises up and the fans cheer but Adkins clobbers him with two wicked shots to the back and then another chair shot to the face that finally takes Dark Stranger down. Stranger still trying to push himself up and is back to all fours but Adkins cracks him over the back again. This time he drops the chair on the ground, scoops Stranger up as he starts to get up again and finally planting him with an End on 5 on the chair.

BJL: That does it.

Adkins looks at his work and then gets his hands on a mic.

Adkins: This is it? This is what you got to fight against the all killing Virus? This is what is going to prevent the XWF from extermination?

He glances down at Stranger and asks the fans.

Adkins: Is this guy who is going to stop this place from becoming extinct? .. No!

Adkins drops down to his knees and looks Stranger over before continuing on.

Adkins: Oh wait. Next week I got Mastro. He's going to get the job done this time, don't think so!

Adkins wipes the snot from his nose.

Adkins: Mastro you can eat a dick. You're going to get your ass handed to you again. Only this time, you'll shut up about it afterwards. As far as the XWF goes... plans haven't changed. You all have plans for this "Greatest Event Ever". Well, it's nothing more than the Adkins Shit Show. And at The Adkins Shit Show... at XtremeMania 10... in the shithole that is Detroit, Michigan... I'm going to beat the holy living hell out of this creature laying right here before me.

Adkins wipes his nose again and paces some more.

Adkins: What I'm saying is Mastro isn't the answer. Stranger won't stop what is going to happen at Mania. And what is going to happen at Xtreme Mania you ask?

Adkins pauses and drapes his arms over the top ropes before kicking Stranger out of the ring, rolling him with his feet. And Stranger falls out of the ring.

Adkins: What is going to happen? Well, obviousy I'm going to retains this belt. Just like I'll retain it next week, and then I'm going to walk out for good... the XWF will collapse.... it'll fall to it's knees, begging for the anecdote. But there will be none. No "Savior". No "vaccine". No "hope". No mercy! Because at XtremeMania.... the virus sets in. The XWF is no more. And when I walk out the XWF Undisputed Champion for the final time... the lights will go out.

That's when the lights go out and crowd goes crazy.

Manic: Ohhh noo.

BJL: What is this?

Chico: Could it be?!

The crowd is buzzing as the lights turn back on and it's Rage standing in the center of the ring. He interrupts to a huge pop.

Manic: It is! It is! It is him!

Chico: "The Elite Killing Machine".

Manic: That's such a better name than the "Elite Killer".

The crowd is stunned and break out in a chant.

Crowd: "Holyshit! Holyshit! Holyshit!"

Adkins can't believe his eyes either it seems. For the first time he looks a little thrown off his game. Rage just stares a hole through him and the EnergySolutions arena is loving every second of it.

Crowd: "This is Awesome! This is Awesome! This is Awesome!"

Rage asks for the microphone and Adkins looks kind of unsure but obliges.

Rage: That's right Adkins. I'm back.

Crowd: "Welcome Back! Welcome Back! Welcome Back! Welcome Back! Welcome Back! Welcome Back!"

Adkins takes a big gulp as his eyes get wider looking up at the much larger, Rage.

Rage: I know you Adkins. I know what you're up to. I see it in your eyes, I heard it in the cackling of your voice last week when you dropped your "bombshell". I sensed it, I felt it the moment you came back to stake claim for that XWF Title. Something smelled fishy. Something didn't sit right with me. I knew you came back... for a purpose.

Adkins shakes his head, smiling manically now as he nods out towards the crowd as well, getting them to play in to his shenanigans.

Rage: I know what you think too Adkins. I know Adkins sees the XWF decaying. I know you Mark. He sees the XWF as a shell of what it once was...

The crowd starts to boo a bit.

Rage: Mark believes that the XWF needs to be put out of it's misery, not handed over to some misfits who will essentially destroy everything the XWF once stood for. And so he wants to end it's life span at Mania.

Fans booing as Rage looks around.

Rage: And so... Mark sees... Mark feels.. Mark knows... what I know. And I couldn't agree more.

The crowd is taking aback. They don't know how to respond, the boos start to pour in.

Rage: The XWF needs to die. But it doesn't need to be a slow death. It can be quick... painless.

Rage looks up slowly at Adkins who also can't believe his ears, as he has his hands in prayer form, waiting to hear more.

Rage: Well, painless for some. Because... it'll take more than walking out of the company with the XWF Undisputed Championship belt. It'll take more than that Adkins, you understand me?

Adkins looks up at him and starts to nod. He completely gets it.

Rage: That's why at XtremeMania 10... I must bring down the XWF's golden child... Shangri-La Jester.

The crowd pops for the mention of the face of the XWF, the longest reigning XWF World Champion ever, Jester.

Rage: You walk out Undisputed Champ.... I annihilate Jester for the final time on the biggest stage! I take the only guy worth mentioning. The only possible threat to this outcome. I take the one man who stands in the way of us and this Virus that you've injected.

Adkins: Yes! Yes!

Adkins can be heard shouting as Rage nods his head towards him.

Rage: Then it's settled. The XWF has an expiration date.... and it's "XtremeMania 10" in Detroit, Michigan.

Rage takes one last look out at the fans.

Rage: I wish I could say I'm sorry.....

The fans are giving them both a lot of heat as Jester theme music hits and the crowd loses it. Jester comes out and Adkins slides out of the ring as he's approaching.

Manic: Jester coming to take care of business!

Chico: The one guy you know who's on the XWF's side of the things!

Jester rips his "King Shit" t-shirt off and slides in the ring, Rage is standing on the far end and Jester goes to run at him when the lights turn off.

Chico: Not this again!

As the lights turn back on Jester is in the ring, face completely red and he's steaming as the fans give Rage heat as he appears at the top of the ramp, smiling down at Jester.

Manic: Is this what we're going to see at XtremeMania 10?

BJL: If we did, it would be awesome! A rematch from their XWF World Title match at XtremeMania 8. It was the voted the greatest matches ever! We would definitely have the Greatest Event on our hands then. Book it Lucente! Book the damn thing.

Manic: We're out of time, we have an XWF Undisputed Title match next week on Massacre. We'll see you then!

Rage and Jester are having a massive stare off at the moment. The camera shows the point of view of Jester's fuming face with the XtremeMania banner hanging from the rafters in the background. Then a camera shot cuts to Rage and he points at Jester and gives him the thumbs down as the night ends with their stare down.
