Introduction
Hehe, welcome back, nah, the Examiner is not over, just slightly understaffed. Please guys, I need some volunteers for writers. Anyway, after missing last week, a longer issue this week, I hope. We have two great interviews, the last Nickel View, The Internet Geek continues on his trip from around the net and John Klud continues the Merchandise Charts as well as taking over, for this week only, down the Bookies. A great two weeks in SXW, since we last wrote, a few title changes and some great shows. We are really looking forward to the PPV this Sunday, so lets get on with the newsletter
By The Ed, Davey Hughes

After The End
As the scene opens Omega is sitting at his 'After the END' set. A life-size dummy of Mr. Fixit is in the seat next to him. Omega starts the show off right away.

"Well, folks, we got a lot to cover today... two weeks worth to be exact. But first, I've got a real scoop. Mr. Fixit agreed to give his first public interview right here on my show! To all you folks who are just readin' this in the newsletter instead of watchin' it, I'll have my first ever 'After the END' Collector's DVD set out real soon now! So Mr. Fixit, why exactly do you keep startin' trouble with me?"

The dummy's mouth moves as Omega does a bad ventriloquist act.
"Duh... me jealous!"

"Of me?"

"You got fans. You got brains. You even tougher than Fixit. That make Fixit feel bad!"

"You know what'd make you feel better?"

"Duh... what?"

"This!"
Omega breaks a 2x4 over the dummy's head and kicks it over.

"Folks, if you thought that looked painful, just wait until Sunday! Now, on with the recaps."

"A couple Fridays ago things went totally nuts. Seems the EoD managed to make a few changes in the card lineup. It started out with CNB not only beating Plague but pullin' his tongue out!

Then the Red Raven creamed Theo Blitz and carved his initials in the guy's chest. Real cute, bird boy... how long did it take you to learn how to spell 'em?

Then Beast crushed Fire and swiped his mask. After seein' that mug o' his, all I can say is... Give him back the mask before we all lose our lunch!"

"Next that Canadian with the unpronounceable name beat Silver Banshee. The guy ain't bad in the ring, but he really needs a new name.

hen Billy K. Bonk beat Light Cyric (what, does he have less calories or somethin'?) and Lugg to win the X-Treme Island belt. Way to go, pal. Myphis about had a coronary!

Then Frost vs. Ruff Ryder turned into the Trinity vs. Ruff Ryder and Jackhammer. Good match for a bunch o' rookies, and Ruff and Jackhammer managed to get the win."

"After that HKK took on Wildthing. Gee... wonder how that happened? Good match if you like watchin' pipsqueaks jump all over the ring. HKK kept his belt but he probably felt that match the next day.

Then it was Cyric and Short Round against Over Fiend and Noh Cheating. Cyric pretty much just kicked everyone's butt.

Next I got screwed out of the hard-core title by Mr. Fixit. I had Aeon right where I wanted him, then that big goon showed up. I'm really lookin' forward to settlin' the score on Sunday."

"Then Ice beat Planeswalker and the Trinity won the tag belts in a tag team raffle... er, rumble.

After that Lucas Myphis had to take on Dark Wind for the Darkness Title. When we came up with that one we never thought he'd win, but he did... thanks to Fixit. Myphis with a belt? Oh well, at least it wasn't David Arquette...

Finally, Ghost Eagle beat Piranha in a great match. I know Piranha's in the EoD, but if he's gotta lose at least it was to one of the good guys."

"Then on Tuesday it was Jobbermania as the low carders came out in full force. Jackhammer bear Jack Kusack. Wildthing beat Theo Blitz. Priest beat Coolman P. Yep, you heard right. Priest won one. Shain Nelles beat Ruff Ryder. Then Frost got creamed by Beast. Oh yeah, and the Jackal beat Mr. Unpronounceable Canadian Name.

Then CNB beat Over Fiend with, of all things... cole slaw! That guy may be nuts, but he's sure fun to watch! Cyric got DQ'd against Raging Bull but beat the hell out of him with a chair. Then Piranha beat Aeon... guess the winnin' streak's over for a while for Mr. 'March of Time'. Then that idiot Fixit busted up my title shot at Ghost Eagle's world title! Man, is that guy gonna pay..."

"Last Friday had more action. ICE and Whitesnake started the night off, with ICE getting' the win. Then Over Fiend beat Crimson Scourge, Green Death, and April Knight in a gauntlet. He won April for the weekend, so that makes him the loser as far as I'm concerned!

Then Nature's Fury beat the Deadly Duo. Aeon looked like he was gonna help HKK, but then he walked away. Guess he's finally getting' smart about those DRI clowns.

Then Ruff Ryder beat Hardman Gubba in a retirement match. I never really noticed Gubba anyway, so I doubt things'll seem much different. The good news is I won tag team gold against the Trinity next. The bad news is that Cyric was my partner! Talk about a belt not bein' worth it!"

"Then Coolman P. beat Aeon for the hardcore belt, thanks to a run-in by HKK. Real team players, those DRI folks... Finally, Lugg Nutt beat Plague, Billy K. Bonk, and the Red Raven. Lugg's a lot better since he lost the bad guy routine and dumped those SoD clowns."

"Then we come to the special Valentine's Day Massacre card. Love was in the air, and so was sweat and blood. First the People's Team beat the Reavers in a six man tag match. As one of the people, I gotta say this is not my team! Over Fiend seemed a little worse for wear after that weekend with April... he ended up as her third man-bitch!

Then the Masked Ronin refused to fight Post, and he sent in Ahala instead. I wouldn't fight Post either... she's just a kid! Too bad for her Ahala's tougher than the Masked Ronin ever thought about bein'! It wasn't pretty, but at least it was quick as Ahala got the easy win."

"After that the Red Raven took on Crazy Noodle Boy in a ten minute tables match. This match was nuts, and so were both participants. TRR tried his chest carving bit, but CNB turned it into a damn valentine! Where were the guys with the white coats and butterfly nets during this one?!?

Then Glacier stopped Fire cold. That led to a four way DRI rumble for the Darkness Title. It was brutal, but Wildthing got the win. Only problem is that Aeon caused the win, so Myphis decided to keep the belt until Maximum Carnage. I hope he has to fight Cyric for it!

After that the Jackal beat Planeswalker, then hog tied him and carried him away! Raging Bull managed to beat Over Fiend next, even with a triple run-in by the Triad.

Finally I teamed up with Ghost Eagle against Aeon and Fixit. It was goin' fine until the Trinity butted in. I still didn't get pinned, but Ghost Eagle did. If the Trinity are this pissed off about me an' Cyric beatin' 'em, then imagine how pissed they'd be if I'd done it by myself like I planned!

Guys, you ain't in my league. Stay outta my way or else."

"That's it for tonight's show. Remember, the DVD collection comes out in just a few weeks! Until next week, folks!
By Omega


The Last Nickel View
NB- This was written last week

First of all, I must apologise for my absence from last week's newsletter, there were some unfortunate.... happenings in North Korea that I was asked to take care of. But the past couple of weeks have been one of much excitement and interesting developments. 

First of all, SXW legend Brimstone has been seen hospitalised, paralysed and as good as dead. Brimstone was a man that the own3r of SXW has mentioned as a man who he would not like to see in the all new SXW, could there be a link?

This is a story that is sure to pull on the heart strings of many SXW fans. Another major twist was the revelation surrounding the Havoc/Omega/Defender saga. As it turned out, Havoc never really existed, Omega returned for around 15 minutes before renaming to Defender or Captain America's stunt double. Speaking of Defender, he and Mr. Fixit have had their problems of late, Fixit interfered in a big way during the Defender vs. Aeon Hardcore Title Match, effectively giving Aeon the win. The FNF before this newsletter is published we will see a tag-team match between Aeon & Mr Fixit and Ghost Eagle & Defender [Note from the Ed, last FNF].

The Dirty Rotten Imbeciles have also had problems recently, the largest being Hex having a hole the size of a small African nation cut in his chest. Hex went into solitude, waiting for his recovery. Plague was the seemingly natural choice to take over as leader, until recently when Hex re-appeared briefly in the DRI lair and appointed Aeon the new stand-in leader of DRI.

From the segment we saw following that announcement, it is obvious that Aeon is not going to take any shit from DRI, even threatening Wildthing with expulsion if he failed to beat Theo Blitz!

The DRI's biggest rivals, the EoD, have not had much stable action recently, but Piranha defeated Aeon in what turned out to be a non-title match on TNT. This was because Ghost Eagle defeated Piranha before, on FNF, which made the Ghost Eagle vs. Defender match on TNT for the title. The two fan favourites were pretty much neck and neck until Mr Fixit got involved. He flattened both Defender and Ghost Eagle and the match was ruled a no contest.

Something which few people seem to have noticed (unless I have missed something big), Lucas Myphis has not shown his face for a while now, could he be planning things with the own3r? The own3r has had all sorts of suspicion surrounding him recently, here are  the stars that I know people suspect:
-Crazy Noodle Boy/JOE (almost certainly wrong as he has returned to the ring?)
-Legion (A strong favourite among the fans it seems)
-Maxx Fitzgerald (From another dimension where SXW never actually was created, could he be the own3r of the new SXW, to end the bankruptcy of his family?)
-Kamikaze (An evil turn for the all-good high flyer would certainly be a storyline twist!)
-Light Cyric (Same as CNB, he has already returned to action in the ring, so this is unlikely) 
(I'm running these off from memory, so if I've missed some out, sorry :) )

What will happen in the coming weeks? Hopefully we will keep receiving news on Brimstone's condition, Defender still wants a piece of Mr Fixit. Defender may have more guts than brains. We are still awaiting the return of Brandon Hex, and...the rumour that is exciting everyone? MAYBE....Hardman Gubba might leave and join WVW! This rumour has had everybody talking and we all hope he does go because I'm told the locker room now smells quite.............no this is prime time I can't say it.  Until next time.

An Interview With Mikee B

Alex: How old are you?
Mikee: Ohhhh crap, 28, I think the oldest person in SXW :P

Alex: What country do you live in?
Mikee: USA all the way, but being in efed's got me to meet so many people from around the world, I feel like I have plenty of home towns :)

Alex: What state/province do you live in?
Mikee: Minnesota, go Vikings .... oppps !

Alex: How did you get the idea for your character(s)?
Mikee: First character was The Juggernaut, he was basically a Super Heavy Weight, allot like the comic book character from the X-Men, used his image and his attitude.  Second character, well he was stolen actually :P, this one guy in the first efed I joined had the name, so I used it once that efed fell, because that same guy dissed us all, it was a started efed, I guess he was to good for us, but the gimmick, that's all mine and I just love ( my guys image and that wrestler ) but always thought WCW went the wrong way with him, so I did it ... my way ...
btw- a little spoiler, maybe someday we will see a picture of him before the, well you know, super natural thing got him ! Also, I started using him in SNWA and my first feud was with Raging Bull, since then he's grown on just about everybody or done, well, you know what to them, certainly you do Alex :)

Alex: How long have you been e-fedding?
Mikee: Just over 1 year. Joined the EWF, and was World and Hard-core champion, but it went down and I went down as duel champ :) Then I Joined KRSW and got ranked 3rd in 2 weeks, it was my first big efed and inspired me to make XWF. That dropped 2 times before I said fuck it and never looked back, made XWF in 1 week and most of you know the rest ... and I am glad you where here to enjoy it, as I enjoy having all of you in SXW !

Alex: Who is your favorite real wrestler?
Mikee: That would be giving away my SXW character, but other then him, I used to be a huge Kane mark, I like them all, I respect them all and I am sad to say I mark mainly for the real weirdo's like Kwee Wee and Lazz ( opps, I did it again !)

Alex: Favorite quote?
Mikee: Hehe, the going to hell and taking over owns, I liked Don't sing it, just bring it, but from real wrestling, I will say ...... ( images of two middle fingers in your face. ) I got a picture of myself using that quote to prove it :)

Alex: Favorite Wrestling Show?
Mikee: Hands down, Smack Down, but lately I am marking for the small federations, Like WOW ( Women of Wrestling ) and NWA ( not sure the name anymore, but damn is it hard-core !)

Alex: Favorite Color?
Mikee: Blue or shades of blue ( mixed with green )

Alex: Favorite SXW Character?
Mikee: Ouch so, so many, I guess we all know I was a huge Omega mark, Legion, Crazy Noodle Boy, Xander Bloodstone and Kamikaze, but all are gone, right now I think all are great, but if I had to say one guy who catches my eye and his RP keep getting better and better, it's Piranha !

Alex: Favorite computer game?
Mikee: Crimson Skies, but I can kick all your asses in X-Wing or and vs. Tie Fighter :), X-Wing & Duke Nuke all time favorites, but currently Crimson Skies owns !

Alex: Anything else?
Mikee: Yes, I love this stuff, the cards even though they take forever, the newsletters, those images Gerald makes for us, the Role-plays, mahn do I love the role-plays, I hope to see everybody here in 2002 and I hope everybody is happy with in reason and if ever you're down about SXW, talk to me, I can help pick you up hopefully, but don't leech by sympathy, cause it doesn't work like that :)
Everybody in SXW owns, 4 life !

*Please note, I conducted this interview three weeks in advance, meaning it was at least three weeks before CNB was back.

Down The Bookies

Taking over can be hard, but this week it is me, John Klud, who is visiting the bookies and bringing back the best odds. Dave has been severally ill and unable to do so, so obviously that Davey Hughes character thought, hmmmm next best thing. Which is obviously me, cos I am 'The Utility Man'

I will do anything with no notice. Well enough of my moaning by Dave better have recovered by next week or I am going on strike ya hear me Davey [Note from the Ed, Loud and Clear].

Well down to the predicitions. A hard week instore, including a promising PPV, this I will profile first.

SXW : Maximum Carnage 2001 : 2/18/2001

Hardkore Kid vs. Dark Wind
Two classy competitors in what should be a tense and exciting match. HKK, is no longer a rookie, after recently completing his first year in wrestling and he will be looking to retain the title which he believes is rightfully his. His opponent, Dark Wind is a super wrestler, who only recently became titleless, he will be looking to change this status at Carnage, and gain the gold. Should be enthralling but I think Dark Wind will get the win.
HKK 21:50
Dark Wind 29:50

The Jackal vs. Crazy Noodle Boy
Two XWF legends face off in what would be a main event match, if at a different event. I would put no money on either of these two wresters, in this match, why? Cos they are too even. CNB has just returned and maybe a bit ring rusty but nothing has ever stopped him before. Jackal is on top form and is my pick to win this match and retain this title, but as I said, it will be so close, no money should be put on it.
Jackal 26:51
CNB 25:51

Coolman P. vs. Beast The Crusher
Coolman P's SXW Hard-core championship is on the line in this match. Many however believe this title is still really Beast's. Beast dominated this title in old SXW and expect this to be his first title in 'The All New SXW', he will win the match, this Sunday, I have little doubt, despite a valiant effort from CP. But remember I am just a stand in and probably wrong.
CP 2:7
Beast 5:7

Cyric (light) vs. Glacier
No doubt a Cyric win here but Glacier will put up a great effort. I expect this to be a great match. Not just a great match but a long one, I feel Glacier will take a lot of punishment before being finished off. No doubt though Cyric will march on and does anybody know when this guy will ever leave SXW. A top star and Glacier, a top wrestler but unfortunately it is just a mismatch. The match where you should put on some money, even if they aren't great odds.
Cyric 7:8
Glacier 1:8

Top Rope Evening Gown Special
I am not sure how this match is going to work, but I am sure that it will be a two horse race. Former XWF Goddess champion Ahala will be the favourite with the bookies, but I doubt the fans. April Knight the other contender, no disrespect to the other women in it, but these are the only two I see winning, Storm may put up a fight but the others have no chance.
Ahala 31:60
April Knight 20:60 (1:3)
Angelica Storm 5:60 (1:12)
Carnage 1:60
Despair 1:60
Post 2:60 (1:30)

Raging Bull vs. ICE
For the Super Heavyweight title. ICE was killed by the Bull in a different timeline but is now looking for revenge. He has threatened a return of a tag partner which may mean an interference in this match. Despite putting in a great effort in what will be a tight match, I see Bull retaining the title. ICE will put in 110% and if he catches Bull by surprise, he may get the win.
Bull 3:5
ICE 2:5

Piranha vs. Ruff Ryder No doubt about this one. Piranha is a future main eventer and although Ruff has talent and a decent stable to back him up, I see no other result than a Pirry win. The only way Ruff can win gold is some kinda screw job and even then Pirry will fight to the very end. Ruff don't wanna mess in these waters.
Piranha 9:10
Ruff 1:10

Defender vs. Mr.Fixit
Another hard match to call, both with powerful friends. The feud has spanned over nearly two months and it must come to an end here. But will it be a literal end, I think not. But I see Defender winning. It will be close but Defender will regain the form that made him (Omega) the greatest ever SXW wrestler EVER. Fixit will do well and the match will go on and on and on but as Pirry's match, save a screw job, it should be an EoD win.
Defender 3:5
Fixit 2:5

Ghost Eagle vs. Lugg-Nutt
Lugg has finally got a shot he deserves so much. After dropping the bad guy image, he has come on leaps and bounds. He will be a worthy opponent for the undefeated Ghost. Ghostís record in my opinion is equal to Goldbergís undefeated streak, despite being 100 wins less, I believe SXW is harder to get a good winning streak going that WCW. I think Ghost will make a successful defence but both wrestlers will come out honourably. Will we see the return of LEGION.
Ghost Eagle 9:15
Lugg Nutt 6:15

Well with no matches definite for TNT Oh, still more to do as more matches have been added for the PPV, so here we go

Over Fiend vs. Fire
No doubt bout this one, Fire seems to have given up in his mission and lost faith. Since his face was revealed no one has been near him and he will be beaten by Fiend, quite easily.
Over Fiend 58:61
Fire 3:61

Lucas Myphis vs. Wildthing
Lucas has had an exciting title reign and he is a supoerb technical wrestler, who will beat Wildthing easily, all that was just said, give the opposite. Of course I had to write it like that or I would get the sack [Note from the Ed, You will probably get it anyway]( Note from Mikee B, LOL). Wildthing will win though in a quick match.
Myphis 9:10
Wildthing 1:10 (Remember to reverse)

The Hand vs. The Fallen Ones
Two newer groups, but with Carnage and Despair on his side, Aeon will feel a bit handicapped and despite being a super wrestler, his team will fail against an up and coming Hand group, that really look the biz. Frost will lead his team to victory.
Hand 3:4
Fallen Ones 1:4

Shain Nelles vs. Green Death
Snorrrrrrrrrrr. Nah not really, Nelles is a great competitor and will get an easy victory over the man named Green Death, definitely a match where you would put the money on the table next to the name Nelles, after all he is Krazee.
Nelles 9:11
Green Death 2:11

Billy K Bonk vs. Red Raven
Another tough match to call but I feel a title change more likely than not here. TRR is a veteran against the fairly new to the ring Billy K, as well as this Billy is carrying a slight injury, which will hamper his chances. Another top PPV match and I suspect a very long and technical one to, Raven will win though but will not hold his title for long.
Billy 4:13
TRR 9:13

Chris LeSponduluex vs. Crimson Scouge
I am a great fan of the funny French Canadian and Crimson Scouge I hate. Not only this but just a look at the records will tell you Chris LeSponduluex is da man for the victory and betters lay your money down, this will be a walkover. Chris LeSponduluex will use his Submission skills and Scouge will not get pinned, dq'ed or counted out, he will submit.
Chris LeSponduluex 197:200
Crimson Scouge 3:200

Well that really is the end of my report, hope yíall enjoyed it, until next week, werd out, oh man, I have to write the merchandise charts to. What a man does to keep his job ay.

None other than good old Eidolon.He was the special ref in the Ironman vs Dark Destroyer match, in which he, or should I say, I killed Ironman, thus giving DD the win. The tag-team title match never even took place.It was a title match in which the titles could change hands through dq, and since right from the start, Eidolon and Phoenix used chairs to beat on DD and BB, and then went on to kill Barbarian, making DD the tag and superheavyweight champion

None other than....6 seconds PHOENIX

3.Who defeated Brimstone for the rumble title in SXW, and how?

KAMIKAZE, in a match for the Xtreme title

An Interview With Alex Plefka

What is your name? Alexander Plefka

How old are you? 12

What country do you live in? US of A
What state/province do you live in? California(Sacramento to be exact)

How did you get the idea for your character(s)? CoolmanP was basically just an Alex Plefka with the volume turned up like 30 notches. Actually, the name was just a joke, that has become my handle. I  was looking for something distinctive, and my friend and I were just messing around. I think that as of late though, CP has been switchin' off superstars. I like to mix it up occasionally. The one thing about CoolmanP that I can't take full full credit for was the DRI Angle. I came up with the basic outline, and ran it by Mikee. But it was his idea to throw in the dark feather when "creating" the zombified CP as Hex.

Ramirez the [Kickazz] Giant was the only other character of mine that was truly mine. The idea was just to have a freak, and say he knew CP. It was a cheap way to a tag partner, and a gimmick I had wanted to use at the time. The whole growing angle was mine too

Angel(from Sisters of Hell) was not mine. My sister and I used to wrestle under our own gimmicks, and she always liked to be a jacked up angel. Even the finisher(Angel From Hell) is hers. She likes the Hardy Boyz, so naturally when I suggested a flip type move she came up with the double misty flip. 

Despair & Carnage were both Mikee mainly again. I got bored during Christmas break so I said I would create some jobbers. Turns out for a while they weren't jobbers hehe.

How long have you been e-fedding? Since July 27th, 2000

Who is your favourite real wrestler? Definitely a major Foley fan. He has got to be one of the best wrestlers of all time. I also like listening to The Rock talk. He is a great talker. My favourite champion is Triple H, cause he knows how to be an ass. I suppose I like most WWFers. Too Cool and the Hardyz kick ass, and the Dudleyz are pretty cool too. Terry Funk is pretty much the only WCW person I like. 

Favourite quote? "The object of War is not to die for your country but to make the other  bastard die for his!" General Patton
"Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to die" Anonymous

Favourite Wrestling Show? Any WWF show except Jakked, cuz I hate the one Michael dude that ringsides with Michael Cole.( Ouch he mean's Michael Hayes of the Freebirds )

Favourite Colour? Blue

Favourite SXW Character? They all kick ass pretty much. I think Kamikaze was one of my fav's though, and definitely Gomez.

Favourite computer game? StarCraft or almost any other Blizzard game (WC2 owns, lets pummel, Mikee B )

Anything else? Yup... I know it is kinda gay that I interviewed myself, but I completely forgot about interviewing someone until I got a message from Tom saying he needed my interview hehe... typical Alex thing to do. Also, as always, SXW OWN3S!!!

Merchandise Charts
Oh God, not more work. Well SXW is selling well at the moment. With a lota face champions, the replica belts are going supoerbly especially the One World title. Ghost Eagle is a worthy champion and the kids seem to recognise that. EoD are as popular as ever as well as a few new stables. Some remain undecided on the Peoplesí Team but The Hand are already big sellers.

Worst Selling Merchandise
1- NOH Cheatingís personalised toilet seat may be funny but the crowd don't seem to like it, will he ever lose his number one spot.

3- Jack Cusack's Ballcap 'Iam a bombshell' ain't going to good either.
4- NOH Cheating has been trying to auction a thong signed by himself and worn by himself as you would expect, no one wants it.
5-
Fire's T-shirt 'See My Face' shows a disgusting picture and it is no surprise no one wants it.

Best Selling Merchandise
1- Ghost Eagle gets to number one, with the replica OWC selling supoerbly
2- Kruizing in at number two is Piranha's drink Delta Waters now available in THREE different flavours
3- Lugg: Next OWC shirt is a super seller as the crowd really take to the golden veteran

By John Klud

BLAST FROM THE PAST:
X-Treme Mania 2000
Main Event was set, Cyric vs. The Red Raven, World title match, but hours before, in another match, Maxx Fitzgerald killed the XWF Wolrd Champion ... CYRIC, thus leaving a big loop in the main event, or not .... as Damona elected a person who they all thought worthy and nobody was gonna stop him, that champion was LEGION!

Now it was like old times, Raven vs. Legion, Ankle Lock vs. Raven's Nest, these two had done it all, accept World title slobber knocker and it was on .......

MAIN EVENT

??? vs. THE RED RAVEN
XWF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE BEL

Tyler - " The following match is a standard one fall match and is for the XWF World Championship title belt, with a 25 minute time limit ! "

If This Is Hell begins to play as the fans start to pop for The Red Raven who makes his way to the ring, he wears his XWF Submission title belt, he looks unhappy !

Tyler - " Introducing first from Perth, Australia, and founder of the Spirit's of Fury, he is your XWF Submission Champion ....... THE RED RAVEN !!!!!!! "

The fans continue to cheer as Raven enters the ring, and awaits the unknown, as No Chance in Hell begins to play and Maxx Fitzgerald walks out, he has the XWF World title belt around his waist, he is flanked by Over Fiend and Super Star, as he walks to the ring ramp and speaks to Raven as he slowly walks to and enters the ring.

Maxx - " Raven, you see, first off, I would never have booked you in this match in the first place, that was Coupe's doing, but now that your here, I fear you are not worthy of been #1 in my company, but my plans seem to have gone to POT, when I killed your opponent and the XWF World Champion , CYRIC !!! "

Maxx - " But that was part of the plan, so you will not win the belt for free, you will have an opponent, and you will not be just any match, no...no..it will be of course your favorite, a no DQ match ! "

Fans boo as Maxx continues, Raven is just rolling his eyes and staring down the Super Fiends !

Maxx - " And anybody from the Spirits of Fury runs to the ring and they are fired on the spot and ...... It will also be a lumberjack match...... "

Fans start booing like mad, as the Soldier of Fortune theme begins to play and A-Train, Legion, Hynter, Ugg-lee and Lugg Nutt all walks with smiles to the ring.


Maxx - " And guess who the lumberjack's are....... hahaha ....... now as for your opponent ?! "

Of Thunder begins to play as the lights go out, and fans still boo even more, with in seconds the lights return to reveal Damona in the ring, she is flanked by the Zen Elite and A wounded Ahala, Damona walks into the conversation as Maxx and Raven are in the middle of the ring, the rest exit the ring and add to the lumberjack factor.

Damona - " Raven, tonight ......... you will not face me, you can easy up now boy . "
Damona - " But as one last respect to the fallen lord Cyric, we have a special opponent in mind for you tonight and it is not one of your friends, but the man who deserves to face you most and who does after all, deserve to be XWF Champion of the World !!!!!! "

Damona walks to the ropes, and holds them open as Maxx Fitz walks over and signals for the one and only LEGION to enter the ring, as he does, JagerMonsta begins to play, Raven gets a look of totally been set up but he wanted Legion anywise !

Maxx - " Now, it seems we have all the bases covered for this little match !!! "

Just then, Sexy Boy begins to play as BlackJack the special guest referee walks out in a pair of shorts and black and white stripes painted across his body like a referee shirt, with a cigar in mouth he has a microphone !

BlackJack - " Not all the bases Fitzy !!!!! "

Maxx gets the look on his face, like he hasn't been able to take a crap in months, as BlackJack walks to the ring !

BlackJack - " Looks like you forgot about one thing........ "

The fans begins to cheer as BlackJack gets a nasty look from Maxx and Legion, TRR looks happier !

BJ - " Wait, it doesn't stop there, you forgot about two things !!!!!!!! "

Danger Zone begins to play as Kamikaze walks to the ring, Maxx is even more pissed as this newbie is standing him up at his own show, Raven starts to laugh, as Kamikaze takes place, not been intimidated by the number of SOF lumberjacks at ring side.

Maxx and Damona exit the ring, Tyler has the XWF WC title as she exits the ring, the lumber jacks spread out around the ring as Legion and TRR size one another up !

The two men lock up as the fans pop,this is a classic battle at maybe it's final end, Legion with a series of knee lifts, but Raven does the same, but to square one as they struggle locked in combat, Legion again, this time with a tornado DDT, then hits Raven with a spinning neck breaker, Raven roles outside the ring and is pummeled then rolled right back in, Kamikaze made sure they didn't get in the licks they wanted to.

BlackJack is pushing Legion to keep him back, this start them in a fist fight, as the two are in a shirt arm melee, soon Raven joins in and it;s a slobber knocker, two against one, then Raven hits Legion with a vertical suplex take down and pin.

Legion yells at BlackJack and is hit hard by a spear take down from Raven as he then applies his The Red Cross (Reverse Figure Four/Sleeper, putting pressure on the legs, back and limiting the blood flow to the brain), submission hold to Legion, BlackJack start asking him right away if he quits, Legion clearly says NO !

Outside the ring, it appeared Ugg-Lee was going to try and pull Raven off Legion, but Kamikaze was there and stopped him, as BlackJack turned to the outside action, Legion got his hand to the ropes, but Raven hammers it off, then dragged Legion back to mid ring.

Raven was not getting Legion to submit, he knew that so he was only tiring him out, the two men on their feet and Raven lands a back breaker then another pin.

BlackJack - " 1..2"

A-Train reached in and pulled Raven off of Legion, BlackJack again at the ropes, as Raven lifts Legion up again, Legion nails a low blow, then a body to body suplex, Raven quick to his feet and gets hit with a German suplex and bridge pin combo, after some time BlackJack goes for the count !

BlackJack - " 1........2..........."

Long count and Raven kicks out, Legion picks him up and nails Raven with a atomic drop, this sends Raven though the ropes, but before the lumberjacks can get to him, Kamikaze is there and fights off all four of them. but he in turn gets pummeled by been outnumbered.

In the ring, Legion gets the Pump kick from the top rope set up on Raven, who is winded from the shot, and hit with the Dominator(pedigree), BlackJack again misses the pin by Legion, this time totally as he tries to get the SOF off of Kamikaze, Legion now at the ropes telling BlackJack to pay attention, Raven sneaks up behind Legion, the fan pop didn't give him away as he drops Legion with a back suplex, then stays there for the pin, BlackJack slides back into the ring !

BlackJack - " 1..2."

Almost at three, when A-Train grabs BlackJack by one leg and pulls him out of the ring, the two then fist fight, as Hynter and Ugg-Lee fight with Kamikaze, Lugg Nutt goes around the ring and tosses half the ring stairs into the ring for Legion to slam Raven on, as Legion sets up the stairs, and then picks up Raven for power bomb onto the stairs, Raven in mid air twists out of the hold, and drops Legion onto the ring stairs with his The Raven Drop (Sitting Bulldog), Legions head hits with a thunderous thud, as the fans cheer like crazy !

Maxx and the Dark Elite are on the entrance ramp top watching the match, as Raven may have it in the bag, but A-Train is still locked up in combat with the referee BlackJack, so Maxx makes the signal back stage as Swinging Steve runs to the ring, he is also painted up like a referee as he gets huge boo from fans, he enters the ring behind Raven and nails him with a knee drop and full arm low blow, this puts Raven down next to Legion, who has finally gotten up, he has a problem with his neck and head, he is bleeding from the top of his skull, and he keeps twitching.

Kamikaze is taken down finally as Lugg Nutt hits him with the Fixer Upper (T-bone DDT) and the SOF all move onto BlackJack, and he is unable to get back in the ring and pummeled, in the ring, Swinging Steve is telling Legion to pin Raven, Legion looks like he is clueless, as Raven stands up and fires a hard right hand at Legions face, but Legion then moves still having superior reflexes, he deflects the fist shot then nails Raven with a death valley driver, slamming Red Raven onto the top of the steel ring stairs, Raven is toast and falls to the side of the stairs.

Swinging Steve is now yelling at Legion, saying pin him, pin him, as Legion slowly goes and pins Raven, with a laxed pin.

Swinging Steve - " 1...2...3.."

Legion looks like he is clueless to what has just transpired, as he looks at his title belt and knows only that it is his and nobody else's !!

Tyler - " Winner via pin fall and your new XWF CHAMPION OF HE WORLD !!!!!!!!!! LEGION !!!!!!!!!! "

Legion looks at Tyler his eyes get huge and wide, as he then with a stiff right hook, nails Hynter, sending her out of the ring, next Legion locks at Swinging Steve, who looks freaked as Legion boots him then drops him with a pump handle slam while still holding his title belt, Legion then turns to A-Train, Ugg-Lee and Lugg Nutt, Maxx is now like ' what the fuck is going on !!!!!!

Legion - " ..For I am all that can save this world from it's doomed destiny ....."
