[The show opens with a sweeping shot of the packed Kohl Center, the fans on their feet, waving signs, and chanting as ECWF’s Monday Night Mayhem kicks off. Pyro explodes around the stage, lighting up the arena as the camera cuts to ringside, where commentators Josh Grant and Tom Steiner are seated, ready to call the action.]
Josh Grant: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to ECWF’s Monday Night Mayhem! We are LIVE from the Kohl Center on the campus of the University of Wisconsin, and what a night we have in store for you!"
Tom Steiner: "That’s right, Josh! Tonight’s card is stacked from top to bottom. We’ve got the Midwest Championship on the line, an all-star tag team match, and in the main event, Victor Kall goes one-on-one with Patrick Slayton, but here's the kicker – The Rogue Horsemen are banned from ringside, or Caine Marik will be stripped of the ECWF World Heavyweight Championship!"
Josh Grant: "No doubt about it, Kall has a lot to prove, and Slayton will be looking to capitalize on that pressure. But that’s not all—let’s talk about the Midwest Championship match. Robert Armstrong will face Daron Smythe with Smythe’s title on the line, and we’ve got the #1 contender, Misery, joining us as a special guest commentator!"
Tom Steiner: "Misery has been on a tear lately, winning the Scotty Paine Memorial Gauntlet match at Anarchy. He’ll be watching this match very closely because whichever way it goes, he’s next in line for the Midwest title!"
Josh Grant: "And how about the Diamonds Division action tonight? ‘The Storm’ Deena Hixx goes one-on-one with ֆʏռռ, two fierce competitors looking to climb the ranks. This one promises to be a hard-hitting bout."
Tom Steiner: "That’s not all, Josh. The all-star tag team match kicks off the show, featuring Ace Sky teaming with Andrew Raynes to take on Je$tYr $eRyOu$ and ‘The Haunted’ Erik Holland. You can expect absolute chaos from these four incredible athletes!"
Josh Grant: "The tension in the locker room has been building for weeks, and tonight it all comes to a head. The Kohl Center is rocking, and we’re about to witness an unforgettable night of action here in ECWF!"
[The camera cuts to the entrance ramp as the lights dim and the crowd erupts, ready for the first match of the night. The energy is palpable as Monday Night Mayhem officially begins.]
Josh Grant: "Strap in, folks, because Mayhem starts now!"
Opening Contest – All Star Tag Team Match
Ace Sky & Andrew Raynes vs. Je$tYr $eRyOu$ & "The Haunted" Erik Holland
The arena lights dim as Sam Sparx stands in the center of the ring, microphone in hand, ready to announce the competitors.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is an All Star Tag Team Match, scheduled for one fall!"
The opening notes of "Eye In The Sky" by the Alan Parsons Project echo through the arena as the fans cheer. Ace Sky makes his way to the stage, brimming with energy, bouncing on the balls of his feet. Wearing his signature aviator jacket and headband, he raises his arms as pyro bursts behind him.
Sam Sparx: "Introducing first, from Sugarland, Houston, Texas, weighing in at 165 pounds... ACE SKYYYYYY!"
Josh Grant: "Ace Sky is a high-flying sensation who’s been turning heads here in ECWF. He’s agile, quick, and fearless. But tonight, he’s got a big task ahead of him!"
Tom Steiner: "No doubt, Josh. He’s been locked in a brutal rivalry with Je$tYr $eRyOu$, and rumor has it they might clash for the Horror Core Championship at Grave Consequences. You know Ace wants momentum going into that potential match."
Ace Sky slides into the ring, leaping up onto the turnbuckle to pose for the fans before hopping down and preparing for the match. The arena now shifts as "Omnishred" by Powerglove hits the sound system. The crowd gives a mixed reaction as Andrew Raynes emerges from behind the curtain. Confident and focused, Raynes strides toward the ring with his eyes locked forward, ignoring the fans as he rolls his neck and stretches his arms.
Sam Sparx: "And his tag team partner, from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, weighing in at 225 pounds... ANDREW RAYNES!"
Josh Grant: "Andrew Raynes is the newcomer everyone’s been talking about. He’s made waves in other promotions, and now he’s here in ECWF, ready to prove himself. This guy’s got potential written all over him."
Tom Steiner: "He’s got the size and the technical skill to make an impact, but tonight, he’s in the deep end with a chaotic mix of personalities. How will he fare in a volatile environment like this?"
Raynes climbs into the ring, giving a nod to Ace Sky but keeping his distance as the two wait for their opponents. The arena takes on a darker tone as "Prince Charming" by Metallica hits, and Je$tYr $eRyOu$ saunters out from behind the curtain. With an unhinged grin on his face, $eRyOu$ exudes menace, wearing his signature clown-inspired face paint and chaotic energy.
Sam Sparx: "And their opponents, first, from New Orleans, Louisiana, weighing in at 245 pounds... JE$TYR $eRYOU$!"
Josh Grant: "Je$tYr $eRyOu$ is a wild card, plain and simple. His feud with Ace Sky over the Horror Core Championship has been heating up for weeks. These two can’t wait to tear into each other."
Tom Steiner: "And $eRyOu$ thrives in this kind of chaotic atmosphere. You never know what to expect from him, and that’s what makes him so dangerous."
As $eRyOu$ circles the ring, taunting Ace Sky, the arena erupts as "The Dying Song (Time to Sing)" by Slipknot booms through the speakers. "The Haunted" Erik Holland steps out onto the stage, his presence alone casting a shadow over the crowd. Towering at 285 pounds, Holland’s cold, menacing stare cuts through the noise. The fans erupt, realizing they’re in the presence of a former ECWF World Champion.
Sam Sparx: "And his tag team partner, from Silent Hill, weighing in at 285 pounds... THE HAUNTED... ERIK HOLLAND!"
Josh Grant: "Erik Holland is back, and that is bad news for the ECWF locker room. A former World Champion, Holland has his sights set on the ECWF Championship once again, and he’s already called out Caine Marik. But tonight, he teams with Je$tYr $eRyOu$, and you know Holland is here to make a statement."
Tom Steiner: "The Haunted is a wrecking machine, plain and simple. When Holland steps into that ring, bodies tend to pile up. I feel sorry for whoever crosses him tonight."
Holland marches to the ring with a purpose, standing alongside Je$tYr $eRyOu$ as the two look across the ring at their opponents. The tension is thick as referee Mark Jenkins calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
The match kicks off with Ace Sky and Je$tYr $eRyOu$ starting things off. The two have been at each other's throats for weeks, and it shows as they immediately charge at one another, trading punches in the center of the ring. Sky’s speed allows him to dodge a wild haymaker from $eRyOu$, and he counters with a rapid-fire series of kicks to the legs and midsection. $eRyOu$ stumbles backward as Sky hits the ropes and connects with a springboard crossbody, taking $eRyOu$ down.
Josh Grant: "Ace Sky is flying early on! His speed is giving $eRyOu$ all sorts of problems."
Sky goes for a quick cover, but $eRyOu$ kicks out at one. The two continue their high-octane exchange, with Sky using his agility to stay one step ahead of $eRyOu$. Eventually, $eRyOu$ catches Sky mid-air off a springboard moonsault attempt, slamming him down with a spinebuster.
Tom Steiner: "That’s the power advantage of Je$tYr $eRyOu$. He caught Ace out of nowhere!"
$eRyOu$ tags in the massive Erik Holland, who steps over the top rope, entering the ring like a horror movie monster. Sky scrambles to his corner and tags in Andrew Raynes. The crowd buzzes as Raynes and Holland square off, two big men with something to prove. Raynes immediately goes for a lock-up, but Holland powers him into the corner with ease.
Josh Grant: "Holland’s power is overwhelming! But Raynes is no slouch."
Raynes fights back, using his technical prowess to escape Holland’s grip and land a stiff enziguri, which barely staggers Holland. Raynes hits the ropes and attempts a running clothesline, but Holland doesn’t budge. Holland retaliates with a brutal big boot, sending Raynes crashing to the mat.
Tom Steiner: "The Haunted is making his presence felt. Raynes is learning quickly why Holland is a former World Champion."
The match continues with both teams tagging in and out. Ace Sky dazzles the crowd with his high-flying maneuvers, while $eRyOu$ brings his unorthodox, brawling style. Andrew Raynes impresses with his technical skill, but Erik Holland’s sheer size and power make him the dominant force throughout the match. The turning point comes when Raynes and Sky try to double-team Holland, but a miscommunication leads to Sky accidentally hitting Raynes with a dropkick meant for $eRyOu$.
Josh Grant: "Oh no! A miscommunication between Raynes and Sky!"
As Sky realizes his mistake, Holland seizes the opportunity. He grabs Raynes and hoists him onto his shoulders, setting up for his finisher. With a devastating show of strength, Holland hits The Toxic Avenger (Death Valley Driver), planting Raynes into the canvas with authority.
Tom Steiner: "What a move! The Toxic Avenger! Raynes is done!"
Holland covers Raynes as Mark Jenkins makes the count.
Referee Mark Jenkins: "One! Two! Three!"
Sam Sparx: "Here are your winners… Je$tYr $eRyOu$ and 'The Haunted' Erik Holland!"
Josh Grant: "Erik Holland and Je$tYr $eRyOu$ pick up the win in the opening contest of Monday Night Mayhem! What a statement from Holland, reminding everyone why he’s a former World Champion."
Tom Steiner: "And you know Holland has his sights set on Caine Marik, but Ace Sky and $eRyOu$ are far from done with each other. Grave Consequences could see those two in a war for the Horror Core Championship!"
As Holland and $eRyOu$ celebrate in the ring, Ace Sky looks frustrated outside, glaring at his partner Raynes, who struggles to recover. The tension is palpable, and the crowd knows this rivalry is far from over.
WINNERS: Erik Holland and Je$tYr $eRyOu$
Diamonds Division Match – "The Storm" Deena Hixx vs. ֆʏռռ
The arena lights flicker as Sam Sparx steps into the ring, microphone in hand.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a Diamonds Division match!"
The opening notes of "The Storm Is Coming" by Def Rebel hit the sound system as the fans erupt in boos. Deena Hixx, known for her ferocity in the ring, storms out from behind the curtain, her face a mask of focus and anger. Wearing her signature storm-themed gear, she marches to the ring with an intensity that’s hard to ignore.
Sam Sparx: "Introducing first, from Vero Beach, Florida, weighing in at 160 pounds… 'THE STORM' DEENA HIXX!"
Josh Grant: "Look at Deena Hixx tonight! She looks absolutely furious. It’s clear she’s on a mission to send a message to the entire Diamonds Division."
Tom Steiner: "And specifically to Crystal Zdunich, the current Diamonds Division Champion. Hixx has made it known that she’s gunning for the title, and a win tonight could bring her one step closer."
Hixx rolls into the ring, her eyes locked on the entrance ramp, pacing like a caged animal waiting for her prey. The lights go dim as "Yen" by Slipknot echoes through the arena. The crowd’s reaction is more subdued but intrigued as ֆʏռռ makes her way to the stage. She exudes a cold and calculating presence, her long black hair flowing behind her as she walks methodically to the ring.
Sam Sparx: "And her opponent, from Anchorage, Alaska, weighing in at 145 pounds… ֆʏռռ!"
Josh Grant: "ֆʏռռ is an enigma. She’s quiet, dangerous, and unpredictable in the ring. Don’t let her size fool you—she’s a force to be reckoned with."
Tom Steiner: "And while Hixx is focused on sending a message, ֆʏռռ has her own ambitions in the Diamonds Division. A win over someone like Deena Hixx could catapult her into the title picture."
As ֆʏռռ enters the ring, she locks eyes with Hixx, who wastes no time, charging at her the moment the bell rings.
DING DING DING!
Deena Hixx takes control early, using her strength and aggression to batter ֆʏռռ with a series of hard forearm shots. She backs ֆʏռռ into the corner and delivers a flurry of body shots, forcing the referee, Nick Pack, to step in and separate them.
Josh Grant: "Hixx is not holding back at all. She’s like a storm unleashed!"
As soon as the referee backs off, Hixx grabs ֆʏռռ and throws her across the ring with a hard Irish whip, causing ֆʏռռ to crash into the turnbuckle. Hixx charges forward, looking for a running clothesline, but ֆʏռռ dodges at the last second, and Hixx slams into the turnbuckle shoulder-first.
Tom Steiner: "There’s the cunning of ֆʏռռ! She bides her time, waits for her opening, and strikes when least expected."
Taking advantage of the opening, ֆʏռռ targets Hixx’s shoulder with a series of quick, vicious kicks, looking to wear her opponent down. She grabs Hixx by the arm and delivers a beautiful arm wrench, further weakening the shoulder. Hixx winces in pain but powers through, pushing ֆʏռռ back with a hard shove.
Josh Grant: "Smart strategy by ֆʏռռ, but Deena Hixx has the power advantage here, and she’s not going down easily."
Hixx, visibly angry, charges at ֆʏռռ again, but ֆʏռռ surprises her with a quick drop toehold, sending Hixx face-first into the mat. ֆʏռռ follows up with a running dropkick to the side of Hixx’s head, dazing her. She goes for a quick cover.
Referee Nick Pack: "One! Two!"
Hixx kicks out with authority at two. ֆʏռռ stays on the attack, but Hixx catches her with a brutal lariat out of nowhere, nearly taking her head off. The crowd gasps at the impact as Hixx regains control.
Tom Steiner: "What a lariat! Deena Hixx is back in control, and she’s looking to finish this."
Hixx grabs ֆʏռռ and hoists her up into position for her finisher. With a determined look on her face, Hixx locks in a double chicken wing and lifts ֆʏռռ into the air before slamming her face-first into the mat with the Deena Slam (double chicken wing lift into a front face slam). The impact echoes through the arena as Hixx makes the cover.
Referee Nick Pack: "One! Two! Three!"
Sam Sparx: "Here is your winner… 'The Storm' DEENA HIXX!"
Hixx stands tall over ֆʏռռ as the referee raises her hand. But she’s not done. Hixx grabs a microphone, breathing heavily, her eyes locked on the hard camera.
Deena Hixx: "Crystal Zdunich! I hope you’re watching, because this… is your future!"
The crowd boos as Hixx paces the ring, her intensity growing.
Deena Hixx: "I’ve had enough of waiting! At Grave Consequences, I want you… in a Buried Alive match! No more games. No more running. I’m going to bury you and take what’s mine!"
The crowd erupts in shock as Hixx drops the microphone and exits the ring, glaring down the camera lens as she storms up the ramp.
Josh Grant: "Wow! Deena Hixx just laid down the challenge! A Buried Alive match at Grave Consequences for the Diamonds Division Championship!"
Tom Steiner: "If Crystal Zdunich accepts, we could be in for one of the most brutal matches in ECWF history!"
As Hixx exits, the camera lingers on the stunned crowd before cutting back to the commentators.
Josh Grant: "We’ll have to wait and see if Zdunich responds to that challenge, but one thing’s for sure—Deena Hixx is on a warpath!"
Tom Steiner: "What a night, and we’re just getting started!"
WINNER: Deena Hixx
Midwest Championship Match – Robert Armstrong vs. #1 Daron Smythe (c)
Special Guest Commentator: Misery
The crowd buzzes with anticipation as Sam Sparx takes center stage in the ring.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the ECWF Midwest Championship!"
The familiar sound of "Murder One" by Metallica rumbles through the arena, and the crowd erupts into a chorus of boos as Robert Armstrong, a member of the Rogue Horsemen, emerges from the back. He walks out with an aura of confidence, adjusting his leather jacket as he glares at the crowd.
Sam Sparx: "Introducing first, the challenger, from Verona, California, weighing in at 235 pounds… representing the Rogue Horsemen… ROBERT ARMSTRONG!"
Josh Grant: "Robert Armstrong is one of the most dangerous men in ECWF, and you have to think that after coming so close to pinning Daron Smythe in that Three-Way Dance, he's more determined than ever to walk away with the Midwest Championship tonight."
Tom Steiner: "But let’s not forget the Rogue Horsemen’s recent dominance—these guys are collecting gold left and right. However, the way they’ve treated their own World Champion, Caine Marik, is raising some serious eyebrows. Armstrong is dangerous, but I wonder if there’s tension brewing within the Horsemen."
Armstrong confidently enters the ring, sneering at the crowd as he stretches against the ropes, waiting for his opponent.
Suddenly, "#1" by Nelly hits, and the crowd gets to its feet as the Midwest Champion, Daron Smythe, makes his way onto the stage, the Midwest Championship shining around his waist. He pauses at the top of the ramp, soaking in the cheers from the crowd before pointing to his #1 jersey.
Sam Sparx: "And his opponent, from Wheeling, West Virginia, weighing in at 246 pounds… he is the ECWF Midwest Champion… ‘#1’ DARON SMYTHE!"
Josh Grant: "Smythe is one of the fastest-rising stars in ECWF, and he's riding a wave of momentum. He pinned Titus Manu in that three-way dance, but Armstrong is quick to point out that he didn’t lose that match."
Tom Steiner: "And that’s what this match is all about—Smythe has something to prove, and Armstrong feels like he has unfinished business. Add in the presence of Misery on commentary, the #1 contender for the Midwest title, and this match could get out of control."
Smythe makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands with fans before stepping into the ring. He raises the Midwest Championship high into the air, signaling that he’s ready for the fight of his life.
DING DING DING!
The match starts with both men circling each other in the center of the ring. Armstrong, the brawler, is trying to impose his will early, while Smythe is playing it smart, using his agility to dodge the heavy strikes.
Armstrong finally catches Smythe with a big shoulder tackle, sending the champ to the mat. He stomps on Smythe’s back, asserting his dominance early in the match.
Josh Grant: "Armstrong is using his strength advantage to control the pace early on. We know how dangerous he can be when he slows things down to his tempo."
Armstrong continues to work over Smythe, delivering a series of clubbering forearms to the back, grounding the champion. He pulls Smythe up and throws him into the corner, following up with a vicious running clothesline. Smythe staggers out, and Armstrong grabs him, hitting a big belly-to-back suplex. He covers Smythe for the first pin attempt.
Referee Susan Spinelli: "One! Two!"
Smythe kicks out at two, and Armstrong shows his frustration. He grabs Smythe by the hair and locks him into a chinlock, trying to wear down the champion.
Tom Steiner: "Armstrong is relentless. He's keeping Smythe grounded, and it’s smart strategy against someone with Smythe's stamina and heart."
Smythe fights to his feet, delivering elbows to Armstrong’s midsection, forcing the break. Smythe hits the ropes and comes back with a running forearm, staggering Armstrong. Smythe hits another forearm, followed by a springboard crossbody, sending Armstrong crashing to the mat. The crowd erupts as Smythe covers Armstrong.
Referee Susan Spinelli: "One! Two!"
Armstrong powers out, and the match continues with Smythe now on the offensive. He hits Armstrong with a series of strikes and quick suplexes, using his speed to overwhelm the Rogue Horseman. Smythe signals for the finish, backing up into the corner and setting up for his devastating #1 and Done Superkick.
But before Smythe can deliver the final blow, the crowd begins to stir as David and Patrick Slayton appear at the top of the ramp. The Slaytons are clearly looking to interfere, and the crowd boos loudly.
Josh Grant: "Oh no, here come the Slaytons! They’ve been treating Caine Marik horribly lately, and now it looks like they’re going to ruin this match for Smythe!"
Tom Steiner: "We’ve seen them do this before! Armstrong might have the Midwest title in his sights thanks to the Slaytons!"
Just as the Slaytons begin making their way down the ramp, the arena plunges into complete darkness. The crowd buzzes with confusion, and the commentators fall silent for a moment.
Josh Grant: "What’s happening here…?"
When the lights flicker back on, two menacing masked figures stand at the bottom of the ramp, blocking the Slaytons' path. The crowd erupts in shock and excitement, recognizing the same masked men who wreaked havoc on the previous show, taking out Kevin Hunter, Lillith Leviathan, Mike Dimter, and April Dimter.
Tom Steiner: "It’s those masked men again! Who are they?!"
The Slaytons freeze in their tracks, clearly wary of the masked intruders. Meanwhile, back in the ring, the distraction is enough for Smythe to regain focus. Armstrong, sensing the tension, goes for a wild clothesline, but Smythe ducks underneath it.
As Armstrong stumbles forward, Smythe moves quickly, hitting the turnbuckles and running up them. He performs a spectacular flip over Armstrong, catching him in a pinning combination as Armstrong struggles to break free.
Referee Susan Spinelli: "One! Two! Three!"
Sam Sparx: "Here is your winner… and STILL ECWF Midwest Champion… ‘#1’ DARON SMYTHE!"
Smythe quickly rolls out of the ring, grabbing his title as the crowd explodes in cheers. He exits through the crowd, holding the Midwest Championship high as he disappears into the sea of fans.
Back in the ring, Armstrong is furious, and the lights go out again. When they come back on, the masked men have disappeared, leaving the Slaytons and Armstrong standing in the ring, arguing furiously with one another. Tension fills the arena as the camera zooms in on their heated exchange.
Josh Grant: "What is going on here?! The Slaytons and Armstrong are at each other’s throats, and these masked men seem to have their number!"
Tom Steiner: "I have no idea, Josh, but one thing’s for sure—Daron Smythe just outsmarted the Rogue Horsemen and retained his Midwest Championship. And these masked men? They’re the wildcards no one saw coming."
WINNER and STILL MIDWEST CHAMPION: #1 Daron Smythe
The show cuts to a commercial break as the chaos in the ring continues to unfold.
The camera cuts to the announcer’s table, where Josh Grant and Tom Steiner sit, a buzz of excitement filling the arena. The lights are bright, and the energy is palpable as the crowd awaits the next segment.
Josh Grant: "Welcome back to Monday Night Mayhem, everyone! We have some massive news to discuss regarding a major trade that has just gone down between the Revolution and Mayhem brands!"
Tom Steiner: "That’s right, Josh! This trade is a game changer! Revolution has acquired the Kingdom—Mike Dimter, April Dimter, Isiah Ford, Titus Manu, and Sabrina Rossi. That’s a powerhouse lineup!"
Josh Grant: "Absolutely! And in return, Revolution has sent over former World Champion John Blade, Aaliyah Landerson, and Lynn Starr to the Mayhem brand. This is a significant shift in the dynamics of both rosters!"
As soon as Lynn Starr's name is mentioned, the arena erupts with excitement. The lights dim, and "The Sound of Madness" by Shinedown plays through the speakers. The crowd cheers as Lynn Starr steps out onto the stage, microphone in hand, a huge smile on her face.
Tom Steiner: "And here she comes! Lynn Starr is making her first appearance on the Mayhem brand! This is going to be interesting!"
Lynn strides confidently down the ramp, soaking in the cheers from the crowd. She reaches the ring and slides in, raising her microphone as the music fades out. The crowd's cheers grow louder, and she waits for them to settle before speaking.
Lynn Starr: "Wow! It feels amazing to be here on Monday Night Mayhem! I’ve been a part of some incredible matches and moments, but joining this brand is a whole new chapter for me!"
The crowd cheers in response, and Lynn takes a moment to let it sink in.
Lynn Starr: "I’ve had my eye on the Diamonds Division for a while now, and I can’t wait to see who rises to the top. I’ll be keeping a close watch on the battle between Deena Hixx and Crystal Zdunich. It’s going to be a wild ride!"
The crowd reacts positively, chanting for both Deena and Crystal.
Lynn Starr: "I want to thank everyone for the warm welcome, and let me assure you—I’m here to compete, and I’m here to win! Mayhem, get ready for Lynn Starr, because I’m ready to make some noise!"
She throws the microphone down and poses for the crowd, who erupts in applause. As her music plays again, Josh Grant and Tom Steiner react from the announcer’s table.
Josh Grant: "What a fantastic way to kick off her career here in Mayhem! Lynn Starr is fired up and ready to take on the Diamonds Division!"
Tom Steiner: "This trade could change the landscape of ECWF, and with Lynn’s determination, she’s sure to make a big impact on this brand. I can’t wait to see what’s next for her!"
As Lynn Starr exits the ring, the camera pans back to the announcers, setting the stage for the rest of the night.
Main Event – Victor Kall vs. Patrick Slayton
Rogue Horsemen are BANNED from ringside or Caine Marik will be stripped of the ECWF Championship
The lights dim, and an eerie, haunting melody fills the arena as Victor Kall makes his entrance to "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me" by Fantomas. The crowd buzzes with anticipation as Kall, the former ECWF Heavyweight Champion, slowly makes his way down the ramp, his eyes cold and focused on the task at hand. He takes his time, seemingly unfazed by the weight of the match ahead.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is your main event of the evening! Introducing first, from Canaan, Vermont, weighing in at 202 pounds… VICTOR KALL!"
Josh Grant: "Victor Kall has been on a mission since losing the ECWF Heavyweight Championship. He has his sights set on reclaiming that title, but standing in his way tonight is one of the most dangerous members of the Rogue Horsemen, Patrick Slayton."
Tom Steiner: "And don't forget, Josh, the stipulation tonight is clear: the Rogue Horsemen are banned from ringside. If they interfere, Caine Marik is stripped of the ECWF Heavyweight Title. With all the chaos surrounding the Rogue Horsemen lately, this match could be pivotal."
Kall steps into the ring, his expression calm but deadly as he stares up the ramp, waiting for his opponent.
Suddenly, the crowd erupts into boos as "Du Hast" by Motionless In White hits, and Patrick Slayton emerges, looking as intense and dangerous as ever. The 250-pound powerhouse marches down the ramp, his eyes locked on Kall with a smirk, knowing that tonight, without his brothers at ringside, he's got to handle business on his own.
Sam Sparx: "And his opponent, from Royal Kunia, Hawaii, weighing in at 250 pounds… PATRICK SLAYTON!"
Josh Grant: "Patrick Slayton has been instrumental in the Rogue Horsemen's dominance in ECWF, but tonight, he's got no backup. After what the Horsemen did to Caine Marik, everyone’s wondering—what are the Slaytons really up to? And where is Caine?"
Tom Steiner: "No one has seen or heard from Marik since that brutal attack by the Slaytons. But make no mistake, Patrick Slayton will do whatever it takes to hurt Victor Kall tonight. This one’s going to be a war."
DING DING DING!
The bell rings, and the two competitors waste no time getting into it. Kall charges at Slayton, using his speed to duck under an early clothesline attempt from the bigger man. Kall hits the ropes and comes back with a dropkick to Slayton’s knee, chopping the powerhouse down. Kall follows up with another quick dropkick, sending Slayton stumbling into the corner.
Kall stays on the offensive, delivering sharp kicks to Slayton’s midsection, trying to keep the bigger man grounded.
Josh Grant: "Kall is using his speed and striking ability to his advantage early on. He knows if Patrick Slayton gets rolling, it could be over quickly."
Slayton fights back, using his size and strength to shove Kall off him and deliver a massive back elbow that sends Kall sprawling to the mat. Slayton takes control, pulling Kall to his feet and whipping him hard into the corner. The ring shakes as Kall crashes into the turnbuckles, and Slayton follows up with a devastating running corner splash.
Kall slumps in the corner, and Slayton takes a moment to flex, mocking the crowd as they boo him loudly. He pulls Kall up again, lifting him into a vertical suplex, holding him in the air for a moment before slamming him down with authority. Slayton covers Kall for the first pin attempt.
Referee Mark Jenkins: "One! Two!"
Kall kicks out, and Slayton glares at the referee before pulling Kall to his feet once more.
Tom Steiner: "Patrick Slayton is methodical in his approach, using his power to wear down Kall. This is exactly the type of match Slayton wanted to impose—slow and punishing."
Slayton locks Kall into a rear chinlock, applying pressure and using his strength to sap the energy out of the former champion. The crowd begins to rally behind Kall, clapping and chanting his name as he fights to his feet. Kall delivers elbows to Slayton’s midsection, breaking the hold, and runs off the ropes, hitting a low dropkick to Slayton’s knee, staggering him.
Kall hits the ropes again and delivers a springboard forearm, finally knocking Slayton down. The crowd erupts as Kall takes control. He scales the ropes, perched on the top turnbuckle, and leaps off, hitting a huge missile dropkick that sends Slayton crashing to the mat. Kall covers him for the pin.
Referee Mark Jenkins: "One! Two!"
Slayton powers out at two, and Kall rolls off, shaking his head in frustration.
As the match progresses, both men continue to trade blows, with Kall using his speed and precision while Slayton relies on his power and brute strength. The commentators speculate about Kall’s potential rematch with Caine Marik for the ECWF Heavyweight Championship, noting that no one has seen Marik since the brutal beatdown by the Rogue Horsemen.
Josh Grant: "Kall’s been focused on reclaiming the title, but where is Caine Marik? What is the Rogue Horsemen’s endgame here? And how does Robert Armstrong factor into all of this?"
Tom Steiner: "There’s a lot of moving pieces, but right now, Kall’s only concern is getting through Patrick Slayton."
The turning point of the match comes when Kall manages to handcuff Slayton to the ropes! The crowd explodes as Slayton, the powerhouse, is suddenly rendered helpless, his arms shackled to the top rope.
Josh Grant: "What’s Kall doing here?! He’s got Patrick Slayton handcuffed to the ropes!"
With Slayton unable to move, Kall grabs a microphone and steps back into the ring, circling his trapped opponent.
Victor Kall: "After everything the Rogue Horsemen did to me… after you beat me down, humiliated me… I’m really going to enjoy this. And in two weeks, when I face Caine Marik for the ECWF Heavyweight Championship, there will be NO interference, because we’ll be locked inside a covered steel cage."
The crowd erupts at the announcement as Kall tosses the mic aside and rolls out of the ring. He reaches under the ring and pulls out a steel chair, grinning sadistically as the crowd gasps in anticipation. Kall rolls back into the ring, the chair in hand.
Tom Steiner: "No… no… Kall’s not really going to—"
Without hesitation, Kall swings the chair with brutal force, slamming it into Slayton’s head. The impact is sickening, and Patrick Slayton slumps over, busted wide open. The referee immediately calls for the bell, disqualifying Kall for the assault.
Sam Sparx: "The winner of this match by disqualification… PATRICK SLAYTON!"
WINNER: Patrick Slayton
But the result hardly matters as Kall stands over a bloodied Slayton, laughing. The crowd is in shock as David Slayton runs down the ramp, sliding into the ring to check on his brother. Kall casually exits the ring, leaving the destruction behind him.
Josh Grant: "Victor Kall has sent a brutal message tonight. This isn’t about winning matches anymore—this is about revenge. And in two weeks, he’s promised a covered steel cage match against Caine Marik for the ECWF Heavyweight Championship!"
Tom Steiner: "But look at the fallout! Patrick Slayton’s been destroyed, and the Rogue Horsemen are in shambles. What’s going to happen next?"
The camera zooms in on David Slayton, who is screaming at Kall from the ring, vowing revenge for what he’s done to his brother. Kall, unfazed, walks up the ramp, smirking as the show fades to black.
[The show opens with a sweeping shot of the packed Kohl Center, the fans on their feet, waving signs, and chanting as ECWF’s Monday Night Mayhem kicks off. Pyro explodes around the stage, lighting up the arena as the camera cuts to ringside, where commentators Josh Grant and Tom Steiner are seated, ready to call the action.]
Josh Grant: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to ECWF’s Monday Night Mayhem! We are LIVE from the Kohl Center on the campus of the University of Wisconsin, and what a night we have in store for you!"
Tom Steiner: "That’s right, Josh! Tonight’s card is stacked from top to bottom. We’ve got the Midwest Championship on the line, an all-star tag team match, and in the main event, Victor Kall goes one-on-one with Patrick Slayton, but here's the kicker – The Rogue Horsemen are banned from ringside, or Caine Marik will be stripped of the ECWF World Heavyweight Championship!"
Josh Grant: "No doubt about it, Kall has a lot to prove, and Slayton will be looking to capitalize on that pressure. But that’s not all—let’s talk about the Midwest Championship match. Robert Armstrong will face Daron Smythe with Smythe’s title on the line, and we’ve got the #1 contender, Misery, joining us as a special guest commentator!"
Tom Steiner: "Misery has been on a tear lately, winning the Scotty Paine Memorial Gauntlet match at Anarchy. He’ll be watching this match very closely because whichever way it goes, he’s next in line for the Midwest title!"
Josh Grant: "And how about the Diamonds Division action tonight? ‘The Storm’ Deena Hixx goes one-on-one with ֆʏռռ, two fierce competitors looking to climb the ranks. This one promises to be a hard-hitting bout."
Tom Steiner: "That’s not all, Josh. The all-star tag team match kicks off the show, featuring Ace Sky teaming with Andrew Raynes to take on Je$tYr $eRyOu$ and ‘The Haunted’ Erik Holland. You can expect absolute chaos from these four incredible athletes!"
Josh Grant: "The tension in the locker room has been building for weeks, and tonight it all comes to a head. The Kohl Center is rocking, and we’re about to witness an unforgettable night of action here in ECWF!"
[The camera cuts to the entrance ramp as the lights dim and the crowd erupts, ready for the first match of the night. The energy is palpable as Monday Night Mayhem officially begins.]
Josh Grant: "Strap in, folks, because Mayhem starts now!"
Opening Contest – All Star Tag Team Match
Ace Sky & Andrew Raynes vs. Je$tYr $eRyOu$ & "The Haunted" Erik Holland
The arena lights dim as Sam Sparx stands in the center of the ring, microphone in hand, ready to announce the competitors.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is an All Star Tag Team Match, scheduled for one fall!"
The opening notes of "Eye In The Sky" by the Alan Parsons Project echo through the arena as the fans cheer. Ace Sky makes his way to the stage, brimming with energy, bouncing on the balls of his feet. Wearing his signature aviator jacket and headband, he raises his arms as pyro bursts behind him.
Sam Sparx: "Introducing first, from Sugarland, Houston, Texas, weighing in at 165 pounds... ACE SKYYYYYY!"
Josh Grant: "Ace Sky is a high-flying sensation who’s been turning heads here in ECWF. He’s agile, quick, and fearless. But tonight, he’s got a big task ahead of him!"
Tom Steiner: "No doubt, Josh. He’s been locked in a brutal rivalry with Je$tYr $eRyOu$, and rumor has it they might clash for the Horror Core Championship at Grave Consequences. You know Ace wants momentum going into that potential match."
Ace Sky slides into the ring, leaping up onto the turnbuckle to pose for the fans before hopping down and preparing for the match. The arena now shifts as "Omnishred" by Powerglove hits the sound system. The crowd gives a mixed reaction as Andrew Raynes emerges from behind the curtain. Confident and focused, Raynes strides toward the ring with his eyes locked forward, ignoring the fans as he rolls his neck and stretches his arms.
Sam Sparx: "And his tag team partner, from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, weighing in at 225 pounds... ANDREW RAYNES!"
Josh Grant: "Andrew Raynes is the newcomer everyone’s been talking about. He’s made waves in other promotions, and now he’s here in ECWF, ready to prove himself. This guy’s got potential written all over him."
Tom Steiner: "He’s got the size and the technical skill to make an impact, but tonight, he’s in the deep end with a chaotic mix of personalities. How will he fare in a volatile environment like this?"
Raynes climbs into the ring, giving a nod to Ace Sky but keeping his distance as the two wait for their opponents. The arena takes on a darker tone as "Prince Charming" by Metallica hits, and Je$tYr $eRyOu$ saunters out from behind the curtain. With an unhinged grin on his face, $eRyOu$ exudes menace, wearing his signature clown-inspired face paint and chaotic energy.
Sam Sparx: "And their opponents, first, from New Orleans, Louisiana, weighing in at 245 pounds... JE$TYR $eRYOU$!"
Josh Grant: "Je$tYr $eRyOu$ is a wild card, plain and simple. His feud with Ace Sky over the Horror Core Championship has been heating up for weeks. These two can’t wait to tear into each other."
Tom Steiner: "And $eRyOu$ thrives in this kind of chaotic atmosphere. You never know what to expect from him, and that’s what makes him so dangerous."
As $eRyOu$ circles the ring, taunting Ace Sky, the arena erupts as "The Dying Song (Time to Sing)" by Slipknot booms through the speakers. "The Haunted" Erik Holland steps out onto the stage, his presence alone casting a shadow over the crowd. Towering at 285 pounds, Holland’s cold, menacing stare cuts through the noise. The fans erupt, realizing they’re in the presence of a former ECWF World Champion.
Sam Sparx: "And his tag team partner, from Silent Hill, weighing in at 285 pounds... THE HAUNTED... ERIK HOLLAND!"
Josh Grant: "Erik Holland is back, and that is bad news for the ECWF locker room. A former World Champion, Holland has his sights set on the ECWF Championship once again, and he’s already called out Caine Marik. But tonight, he teams with Je$tYr $eRyOu$, and you know Holland is here to make a statement."
Tom Steiner: "The Haunted is a wrecking machine, plain and simple. When Holland steps into that ring, bodies tend to pile up. I feel sorry for whoever crosses him tonight."
Holland marches to the ring with a purpose, standing alongside Je$tYr $eRyOu$ as the two look across the ring at their opponents. The tension is thick as referee Mark Jenkins calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
The match kicks off with Ace Sky and Je$tYr $eRyOu$ starting things off. The two have been at each other's throats for weeks, and it shows as they immediately charge at one another, trading punches in the center of the ring. Sky’s speed allows him to dodge a wild haymaker from $eRyOu$, and he counters with a rapid-fire series of kicks to the legs and midsection. $eRyOu$ stumbles backward as Sky hits the ropes and connects with a springboard crossbody, taking $eRyOu$ down.
Josh Grant: "Ace Sky is flying early on! His speed is giving $eRyOu$ all sorts of problems."
Sky goes for a quick cover, but $eRyOu$ kicks out at one. The two continue their high-octane exchange, with Sky using his agility to stay one step ahead of $eRyOu$. Eventually, $eRyOu$ catches Sky mid-air off a springboard moonsault attempt, slamming him down with a spinebuster.
Tom Steiner: "That’s the power advantage of Je$tYr $eRyOu$. He caught Ace out of nowhere!"
$eRyOu$ tags in the massive Erik Holland, who steps over the top rope, entering the ring like a horror movie monster. Sky scrambles to his corner and tags in Andrew Raynes. The crowd buzzes as Raynes and Holland square off, two big men with something to prove. Raynes immediately goes for a lock-up, but Holland powers him into the corner with ease.
Josh Grant: "Holland’s power is overwhelming! But Raynes is no slouch."
Raynes fights back, using his technical prowess to escape Holland’s grip and land a stiff enziguri, which barely staggers Holland. Raynes hits the ropes and attempts a running clothesline, but Holland doesn’t budge. Holland retaliates with a brutal big boot, sending Raynes crashing to the mat.
Tom Steiner: "The Haunted is making his presence felt. Raynes is learning quickly why Holland is a former World Champion."
The match continues with both teams tagging in and out. Ace Sky dazzles the crowd with his high-flying maneuvers, while $eRyOu$ brings his unorthodox, brawling style. Andrew Raynes impresses with his technical skill, but Erik Holland’s sheer size and power make him the dominant force throughout the match. The turning point comes when Raynes and Sky try to double-team Holland, but a miscommunication leads to Sky accidentally hitting Raynes with a dropkick meant for $eRyOu$.
Josh Grant: "Oh no! A miscommunication between Raynes and Sky!"
As Sky realizes his mistake, Holland seizes the opportunity. He grabs Raynes and hoists him onto his shoulders, setting up for his finisher. With a devastating show of strength, Holland hits The Toxic Avenger (Death Valley Driver), planting Raynes into the canvas with authority.
Tom Steiner: "What a move! The Toxic Avenger! Raynes is done!"
Holland covers Raynes as Mark Jenkins makes the count.
Referee Mark Jenkins: "One! Two! Three!"
Sam Sparx: "Here are your winners… Je$tYr $eRyOu$ and 'The Haunted' Erik Holland!"
Josh Grant: "Erik Holland and Je$tYr $eRyOu$ pick up the win in the opening contest of Monday Night Mayhem! What a statement from Holland, reminding everyone why he’s a former World Champion."
Tom Steiner: "And you know Holland has his sights set on Caine Marik, but Ace Sky and $eRyOu$ are far from done with each other. Grave Consequences could see those two in a war for the Horror Core Championship!"
As Holland and $eRyOu$ celebrate in the ring, Ace Sky looks frustrated outside, glaring at his partner Raynes, who struggles to recover. The tension is palpable, and the crowd knows this rivalry is far from over.
WINNERS: Erik Holland and Je$tYr $eRyOu$
Diamonds Division Match – "The Storm" Deena Hixx vs. ֆʏռռ
The arena lights flicker as Sam Sparx steps into the ring, microphone in hand.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a Diamonds Division match!"
The opening notes of "The Storm Is Coming" by Def Rebel hit the sound system as the fans erupt in boos. Deena Hixx, known for her ferocity in the ring, storms out from behind the curtain, her face a mask of focus and anger. Wearing her signature storm-themed gear, she marches to the ring with an intensity that’s hard to ignore.
Sam Sparx: "Introducing first, from Vero Beach, Florida, weighing in at 160 pounds… 'THE STORM' DEENA HIXX!"
Josh Grant: "Look at Deena Hixx tonight! She looks absolutely furious. It’s clear she’s on a mission to send a message to the entire Diamonds Division."
Tom Steiner: "And specifically to Crystal Zdunich, the current Diamonds Division Champion. Hixx has made it known that she’s gunning for the title, and a win tonight could bring her one step closer."
Hixx rolls into the ring, her eyes locked on the entrance ramp, pacing like a caged animal waiting for her prey. The lights go dim as "Yen" by Slipknot echoes through the arena. The crowd’s reaction is more subdued but intrigued as ֆʏռռ makes her way to the stage. She exudes a cold and calculating presence, her long black hair flowing behind her as she walks methodically to the ring.
Sam Sparx: "And her opponent, from Anchorage, Alaska, weighing in at 145 pounds… ֆʏռռ!"
Josh Grant: "ֆʏռռ is an enigma. She’s quiet, dangerous, and unpredictable in the ring. Don’t let her size fool you—she’s a force to be reckoned with."
Tom Steiner: "And while Hixx is focused on sending a message, ֆʏռռ has her own ambitions in the Diamonds Division. A win over someone like Deena Hixx could catapult her into the title picture."
As ֆʏռռ enters the ring, she locks eyes with Hixx, who wastes no time, charging at her the moment the bell rings.
DING DING DING!
Deena Hixx takes control early, using her strength and aggression to batter ֆʏռռ with a series of hard forearm shots. She backs ֆʏռռ into the corner and delivers a flurry of body shots, forcing the referee, Nick Pack, to step in and separate them.
Josh Grant: "Hixx is not holding back at all. She’s like a storm unleashed!"
As soon as the referee backs off, Hixx grabs ֆʏռռ and throws her across the ring with a hard Irish whip, causing ֆʏռռ to crash into the turnbuckle. Hixx charges forward, looking for a running clothesline, but ֆʏռռ dodges at the last second, and Hixx slams into the turnbuckle shoulder-first.
Tom Steiner: "There’s the cunning of ֆʏռռ! She bides her time, waits for her opening, and strikes when least expected."
Taking advantage of the opening, ֆʏռռ targets Hixx’s shoulder with a series of quick, vicious kicks, looking to wear her opponent down. She grabs Hixx by the arm and delivers a beautiful arm wrench, further weakening the shoulder. Hixx winces in pain but powers through, pushing ֆʏռռ back with a hard shove.
Josh Grant: "Smart strategy by ֆʏռռ, but Deena Hixx has the power advantage here, and she’s not going down easily."
Hixx, visibly angry, charges at ֆʏռռ again, but ֆʏռռ surprises her with a quick drop toehold, sending Hixx face-first into the mat. ֆʏռռ follows up with a running dropkick to the side of Hixx’s head, dazing her. She goes for a quick cover.
Referee Nick Pack: "One! Two!"
Hixx kicks out with authority at two. ֆʏռռ stays on the attack, but Hixx catches her with a brutal lariat out of nowhere, nearly taking her head off. The crowd gasps at the impact as Hixx regains control.
Tom Steiner: "What a lariat! Deena Hixx is back in control, and she’s looking to finish this."
Hixx grabs ֆʏռռ and hoists her up into position for her finisher. With a determined look on her face, Hixx locks in a double chicken wing and lifts ֆʏռռ into the air before slamming her face-first into the mat with the Deena Slam (double chicken wing lift into a front face slam). The impact echoes through the arena as Hixx makes the cover.
Referee Nick Pack: "One! Two! Three!"
Sam Sparx: "Here is your winner… 'The Storm' DEENA HIXX!"
Hixx stands tall over ֆʏռռ as the referee raises her hand. But she’s not done. Hixx grabs a microphone, breathing heavily, her eyes locked on the hard camera.
Deena Hixx: "Crystal Zdunich! I hope you’re watching, because this… is your future!"
The crowd boos as Hixx paces the ring, her intensity growing.
Deena Hixx: "I’ve had enough of waiting! At Grave Consequences, I want you… in a Buried Alive match! No more games. No more running. I’m going to bury you and take what’s mine!"
The crowd erupts in shock as Hixx drops the microphone and exits the ring, glaring down the camera lens as she storms up the ramp.
Josh Grant: "Wow! Deena Hixx just laid down the challenge! A Buried Alive match at Grave Consequences for the Diamonds Division Championship!"
Tom Steiner: "If Crystal Zdunich accepts, we could be in for one of the most brutal matches in ECWF history!"
As Hixx exits, the camera lingers on the stunned crowd before cutting back to the commentators.
Josh Grant: "We’ll have to wait and see if Zdunich responds to that challenge, but one thing’s for sure—Deena Hixx is on a warpath!"
Tom Steiner: "What a night, and we’re just getting started!"
WINNER: Deena Hixx
Midwest Championship Match – Robert Armstrong vs. #1 Daron Smythe (c)
Special Guest Commentator: Misery
The crowd buzzes with anticipation as Sam Sparx takes center stage in the ring.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the ECWF Midwest Championship!"
The familiar sound of "Murder One" by Metallica rumbles through the arena, and the crowd erupts into a chorus of boos as Robert Armstrong, a member of the Rogue Horsemen, emerges from the back. He walks out with an aura of confidence, adjusting his leather jacket as he glares at the crowd.
Sam Sparx: "Introducing first, the challenger, from Verona, California, weighing in at 235 pounds… representing the Rogue Horsemen… ROBERT ARMSTRONG!"
Josh Grant: "Robert Armstrong is one of the most dangerous men in ECWF, and you have to think that after coming so close to pinning Daron Smythe in that Three-Way Dance, he's more determined than ever to walk away with the Midwest Championship tonight."
Tom Steiner: "But let’s not forget the Rogue Horsemen’s recent dominance—these guys are collecting gold left and right. However, the way they’ve treated their own World Champion, Caine Marik, is raising some serious eyebrows. Armstrong is dangerous, but I wonder if there’s tension brewing within the Horsemen."
Armstrong confidently enters the ring, sneering at the crowd as he stretches against the ropes, waiting for his opponent.
Suddenly, "#1" by Nelly hits, and the crowd gets to its feet as the Midwest Champion, Daron Smythe, makes his way onto the stage, the Midwest Championship shining around his waist. He pauses at the top of the ramp, soaking in the cheers from the crowd before pointing to his #1 jersey.
Sam Sparx: "And his opponent, from Wheeling, West Virginia, weighing in at 246 pounds… he is the ECWF Midwest Champion… ‘#1’ DARON SMYTHE!"
Josh Grant: "Smythe is one of the fastest-rising stars in ECWF, and he's riding a wave of momentum. He pinned Titus Manu in that three-way dance, but Armstrong is quick to point out that he didn’t lose that match."
Tom Steiner: "And that’s what this match is all about—Smythe has something to prove, and Armstrong feels like he has unfinished business. Add in the presence of Misery on commentary, the #1 contender for the Midwest title, and this match could get out of control."
Smythe makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands with fans before stepping into the ring. He raises the Midwest Championship high into the air, signaling that he’s ready for the fight of his life.
DING DING DING!
The match starts with both men circling each other in the center of the ring. Armstrong, the brawler, is trying to impose his will early, while Smythe is playing it smart, using his agility to dodge the heavy strikes.
Armstrong finally catches Smythe with a big shoulder tackle, sending the champ to the mat. He stomps on Smythe’s back, asserting his dominance early in the match.
Josh Grant: "Armstrong is using his strength advantage to control the pace early on. We know how dangerous he can be when he slows things down to his tempo."
Armstrong continues to work over Smythe, delivering a series of clubbering forearms to the back, grounding the champion. He pulls Smythe up and throws him into the corner, following up with a vicious running clothesline. Smythe staggers out, and Armstrong grabs him, hitting a big belly-to-back suplex. He covers Smythe for the first pin attempt.
Referee Susan Spinelli: "One! Two!"
Smythe kicks out at two, and Armstrong shows his frustration. He grabs Smythe by the hair and locks him into a chinlock, trying to wear down the champion.
Tom Steiner: "Armstrong is relentless. He's keeping Smythe grounded, and it’s smart strategy against someone with Smythe's stamina and heart."
Smythe fights to his feet, delivering elbows to Armstrong’s midsection, forcing the break. Smythe hits the ropes and comes back with a running forearm, staggering Armstrong. Smythe hits another forearm, followed by a springboard crossbody, sending Armstrong crashing to the mat. The crowd erupts as Smythe covers Armstrong.
Referee Susan Spinelli: "One! Two!"
Armstrong powers out, and the match continues with Smythe now on the offensive. He hits Armstrong with a series of strikes and quick suplexes, using his speed to overwhelm the Rogue Horseman. Smythe signals for the finish, backing up into the corner and setting up for his devastating #1 and Done Superkick.
But before Smythe can deliver the final blow, the crowd begins to stir as David and Patrick Slayton appear at the top of the ramp. The Slaytons are clearly looking to interfere, and the crowd boos loudly.
Josh Grant: "Oh no, here come the Slaytons! They’ve been treating Caine Marik horribly lately, and now it looks like they’re going to ruin this match for Smythe!"
Tom Steiner: "We’ve seen them do this before! Armstrong might have the Midwest title in his sights thanks to the Slaytons!"
Just as the Slaytons begin making their way down the ramp, the arena plunges into complete darkness. The crowd buzzes with confusion, and the commentators fall silent for a moment.
Josh Grant: "What’s happening here…?"
When the lights flicker back on, two menacing masked figures stand at the bottom of the ramp, blocking the Slaytons' path. The crowd erupts in shock and excitement, recognizing the same masked men who wreaked havoc on the previous show, taking out Kevin Hunter, Lillith Leviathan, Mike Dimter, and April Dimter.
Tom Steiner: "It’s those masked men again! Who are they?!"
The Slaytons freeze in their tracks, clearly wary of the masked intruders. Meanwhile, back in the ring, the distraction is enough for Smythe to regain focus. Armstrong, sensing the tension, goes for a wild clothesline, but Smythe ducks underneath it.
As Armstrong stumbles forward, Smythe moves quickly, hitting the turnbuckles and running up them. He performs a spectacular flip over Armstrong, catching him in a pinning combination as Armstrong struggles to break free.
Referee Susan Spinelli: "One! Two! Three!"
Sam Sparx: "Here is your winner… and STILL ECWF Midwest Champion… ‘#1’ DARON SMYTHE!"
Smythe quickly rolls out of the ring, grabbing his title as the crowd explodes in cheers. He exits through the crowd, holding the Midwest Championship high as he disappears into the sea of fans.
Back in the ring, Armstrong is furious, and the lights go out again. When they come back on, the masked men have disappeared, leaving the Slaytons and Armstrong standing in the ring, arguing furiously with one another. Tension fills the arena as the camera zooms in on their heated exchange.
Josh Grant: "What is going on here?! The Slaytons and Armstrong are at each other’s throats, and these masked men seem to have their number!"
Tom Steiner: "I have no idea, Josh, but one thing’s for sure—Daron Smythe just outsmarted the Rogue Horsemen and retained his Midwest Championship. And these masked men? They’re the wildcards no one saw coming."
WINNER and STILL MIDWEST CHAMPION: #1 Daron Smythe
The show cuts to a commercial break as the chaos in the ring continues to unfold.
The camera cuts to the announcer’s table, where Josh Grant and Tom Steiner sit, a buzz of excitement filling the arena. The lights are bright, and the energy is palpable as the crowd awaits the next segment.
Josh Grant: "Welcome back to Monday Night Mayhem, everyone! We have some massive news to discuss regarding a major trade that has just gone down between the Revolution and Mayhem brands!"
Tom Steiner: "That’s right, Josh! This trade is a game changer! Revolution has acquired the Kingdom—Mike Dimter, April Dimter, Isiah Ford, Titus Manu, and Sabrina Rossi. That’s a powerhouse lineup!"
Josh Grant: "Absolutely! And in return, Revolution has sent over former World Champion John Blade, Aaliyah Landerson, and Lynn Starr to the Mayhem brand. This is a significant shift in the dynamics of both rosters!"
As soon as Lynn Starr's name is mentioned, the arena erupts with excitement. The lights dim, and "The Sound of Madness" by Shinedown plays through the speakers. The crowd cheers as Lynn Starr steps out onto the stage, microphone in hand, a huge smile on her face.
Tom Steiner: "And here she comes! Lynn Starr is making her first appearance on the Mayhem brand! This is going to be interesting!"
Lynn strides confidently down the ramp, soaking in the cheers from the crowd. She reaches the ring and slides in, raising her microphone as the music fades out. The crowd's cheers grow louder, and she waits for them to settle before speaking.
Lynn Starr: "Wow! It feels amazing to be here on Monday Night Mayhem! I’ve been a part of some incredible matches and moments, but joining this brand is a whole new chapter for me!"
The crowd cheers in response, and Lynn takes a moment to let it sink in.
Lynn Starr: "I’ve had my eye on the Diamonds Division for a while now, and I can’t wait to see who rises to the top. I’ll be keeping a close watch on the battle between Deena Hixx and Crystal Zdunich. It’s going to be a wild ride!"
The crowd reacts positively, chanting for both Deena and Crystal.
Lynn Starr: "I want to thank everyone for the warm welcome, and let me assure you—I’m here to compete, and I’m here to win! Mayhem, get ready for Lynn Starr, because I’m ready to make some noise!"
She throws the microphone down and poses for the crowd, who erupts in applause. As her music plays again, Josh Grant and Tom Steiner react from the announcer’s table.
Josh Grant: "What a fantastic way to kick off her career here in Mayhem! Lynn Starr is fired up and ready to take on the Diamonds Division!"
Tom Steiner: "This trade could change the landscape of ECWF, and with Lynn’s determination, she’s sure to make a big impact on this brand. I can’t wait to see what’s next for her!"
As Lynn Starr exits the ring, the camera pans back to the announcers, setting the stage for the rest of the night.
Main Event – Victor Kall vs. Patrick Slayton
Rogue Horsemen are BANNED from ringside or Caine Marik will be stripped of the ECWF Championship
The lights dim, and an eerie, haunting melody fills the arena as Victor Kall makes his entrance to "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me" by Fantomas. The crowd buzzes with anticipation as Kall, the former ECWF Heavyweight Champion, slowly makes his way down the ramp, his eyes cold and focused on the task at hand. He takes his time, seemingly unfazed by the weight of the match ahead.
Sam Sparx: "The following contest is your main event of the evening! Introducing first, from Canaan, Vermont, weighing in at 202 pounds… VICTOR KALL!"
Josh Grant: "Victor Kall has been on a mission since losing the ECWF Heavyweight Championship. He has his sights set on reclaiming that title, but standing in his way tonight is one of the most dangerous members of the Rogue Horsemen, Patrick Slayton."
Tom Steiner: "And don't forget, Josh, the stipulation tonight is clear: the Rogue Horsemen are banned from ringside. If they interfere, Caine Marik is stripped of the ECWF Heavyweight Title. With all the chaos surrounding the Rogue Horsemen lately, this match could be pivotal."
Kall steps into the ring, his expression calm but deadly as he stares up the ramp, waiting for his opponent.
Suddenly, the crowd erupts into boos as "Du Hast" by Motionless In White hits, and Patrick Slayton emerges, looking as intense and dangerous as ever. The 250-pound powerhouse marches down the ramp, his eyes locked on Kall with a smirk, knowing that tonight, without his brothers at ringside, he's got to handle business on his own.
Sam Sparx: "And his opponent, from Royal Kunia, Hawaii, weighing in at 250 pounds… PATRICK SLAYTON!"
Josh Grant: "Patrick Slayton has been instrumental in the Rogue Horsemen's dominance in ECWF, but tonight, he's got no backup. After what the Horsemen did to Caine Marik, everyone’s wondering—what are the Slaytons really up to? And where is Caine?"
Tom Steiner: "No one has seen or heard from Marik since that brutal attack by the Slaytons. But make no mistake, Patrick Slayton will do whatever it takes to hurt Victor Kall tonight. This one’s going to be a war."
DING DING DING!
The bell rings, and the two competitors waste no time getting into it. Kall charges at Slayton, using his speed to duck under an early clothesline attempt from the bigger man. Kall hits the ropes and comes back with a dropkick to Slayton’s knee, chopping the powerhouse down. Kall follows up with another quick dropkick, sending Slayton stumbling into the corner.
Kall stays on the offensive, delivering sharp kicks to Slayton’s midsection, trying to keep the bigger man grounded.
Josh Grant: "Kall is using his speed and striking ability to his advantage early on. He knows if Patrick Slayton gets rolling, it could be over quickly."
Slayton fights back, using his size and strength to shove Kall off him and deliver a massive back elbow that sends Kall sprawling to the mat. Slayton takes control, pulling Kall to his feet and whipping him hard into the corner. The ring shakes as Kall crashes into the turnbuckles, and Slayton follows up with a devastating running corner splash.
Kall slumps in the corner, and Slayton takes a moment to flex, mocking the crowd as they boo him loudly. He pulls Kall up again, lifting him into a vertical suplex, holding him in the air for a moment before slamming him down with authority. Slayton covers Kall for the first pin attempt.
Referee Mark Jenkins: "One! Two!"
Kall kicks out, and Slayton glares at the referee before pulling Kall to his feet once more.
Tom Steiner: "Patrick Slayton is methodical in his approach, using his power to wear down Kall. This is exactly the type of match Slayton wanted to impose—slow and punishing."
Slayton locks Kall into a rear chinlock, applying pressure and using his strength to sap the energy out of the former champion. The crowd begins to rally behind Kall, clapping and chanting his name as he fights to his feet. Kall delivers elbows to Slayton’s midsection, breaking the hold, and runs off the ropes, hitting a low dropkick to Slayton’s knee, staggering him.
Kall hits the ropes again and delivers a springboard forearm, finally knocking Slayton down. The crowd erupts as Kall takes control. He scales the ropes, perched on the top turnbuckle, and leaps off, hitting a huge missile dropkick that sends Slayton crashing to the mat. Kall covers him for the pin.
Referee Mark Jenkins: "One! Two!"
Slayton powers out at two, and Kall rolls off, shaking his head in frustration.
As the match progresses, both men continue to trade blows, with Kall using his speed and precision while Slayton relies on his power and brute strength. The commentators speculate about Kall’s potential rematch with Caine Marik for the ECWF Heavyweight Championship, noting that no one has seen Marik since the brutal beatdown by the Rogue Horsemen.
Josh Grant: "Kall’s been focused on reclaiming the title, but where is Caine Marik? What is the Rogue Horsemen’s endgame here? And how does Robert Armstrong factor into all of this?"
Tom Steiner: "There’s a lot of moving pieces, but right now, Kall’s only concern is getting through Patrick Slayton."
The turning point of the match comes when Kall manages to handcuff Slayton to the ropes! The crowd explodes as Slayton, the powerhouse, is suddenly rendered helpless, his arms shackled to the top rope.
Josh Grant: "What’s Kall doing here?! He’s got Patrick Slayton handcuffed to the ropes!"
With Slayton unable to move, Kall grabs a microphone and steps back into the ring, circling his trapped opponent.
Victor Kall: "After everything the Rogue Horsemen did to me… after you beat me down, humiliated me… I’m really going to enjoy this. And in two weeks, when I face Caine Marik for the ECWF Heavyweight Championship, there will be NO interference, because we’ll be locked inside a covered steel cage."
The crowd erupts at the announcement as Kall tosses the mic aside and rolls out of the ring. He reaches under the ring and pulls out a steel chair, grinning sadistically as the crowd gasps in anticipation. Kall rolls back into the ring, the chair in hand.
Tom Steiner: "No… no… Kall’s not really going to—"
Without hesitation, Kall swings the chair with brutal force, slamming it into Slayton’s head. The impact is sickening, and Patrick Slayton slumps over, busted wide open. The referee immediately calls for the bell, disqualifying Kall for the assault.
Sam Sparx: "The winner of this match by disqualification… PATRICK SLAYTON!"
WINNER: Patrick Slayton
But the result hardly matters as Kall stands over a bloodied Slayton, laughing. The crowd is in shock as David Slayton runs down the ramp, sliding into the ring to check on his brother. Kall casually exits the ring, leaving the destruction behind him.
Josh Grant: "Victor Kall has sent a brutal message tonight. This isn’t about winning matches anymore—this is about revenge. And in two weeks, he’s promised a covered steel cage match against Caine Marik for the ECWF Heavyweight Championship!"
Tom Steiner: "But look at the fallout! Patrick Slayton’s been destroyed, and the Rogue Horsemen are in shambles. What’s going to happen next?"
The camera zooms in on David Slayton, who is screaming at Kall from the ring, vowing revenge for what he’s done to his brother. Kall, unfazed, walks up the ramp, smirking as the show fades to black.
