Cut to the in-studio announce team for the evening:
Gordon Solie & Matt Striker
"RETRIBUTION" was off the charts in action, drama and in-ring action. A new XPW Boston champion was crowned in the most duplicitous manner, when Dick Shikat double-crossed former champion Danno O'Mahony with a shoot submission. The championship belt was stolen and sold to "The Commission". Now, The Grand Wizard & Jack Pfefer (aka "The Commission") hoist their ill-gotten title aloft and antagonize the East Coast-based Ed Lewis & Toots Mondt faction further. But the former Gold Dust Trio Inc partners Lewis & Mondt aren't finished. They have an iron-clad contractual rematch for Terry Funk to go one-on-one with Commission crown jewel (and Diamond Dynasty founder) "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers for the West Coast championship!!! That main event match is TONIGHT!!!
All that, plus NEW tag team champions - The Miz continues his "Rockstar Reality Show" tour - Generation ME successfully debuted at "RETRIBUTION" in the most memorable manner possible, winning a #1 contenders match - and the Cannibal Cartel remain incensed over their series of losses at "RETRIBUTION". Reigning King of the Death Match "Vicious" Vic Grimes has promised to continue his wave of terror until XPW East Coast champion Bruno Sammartino wilts under the heat. We are now officially entering the month of the Witch, and all of the underworld spawn is bubbling just beneath the surface of our world - ready to burst forth with unholy vengeance. The month of October heralds a time of unparalleled darkness for XPW Remixed - a deathly pall cast over the land, threatening to devour the entire Fantasy Wars universe! Ravenloft meets XPW Remixed as we begin our march towards...
HALLOWEEN in HELL

______________________________________________________________________________________
CANNIBAL CARTEL's REIGN of TERROR CONTINUES RENEWED...
Inside the Cannibal Cartel locker room, capo Vic Grimes is VICIOUSLY lacing into his team with a profanity-ridden tirade! He's outraged over their collapse at "RETRIBUTION", and SLAPS the shit out of the Headhunterz - turning them into frothy-mouthed BEASTS ready to KILL. "Sick" Nick Mondo lurks in the background holding a video camera, while Ian Rotten tries to stay out of Grimes' sight. The young, Just-Don't-Give-A-Fuck JC Bailey looks edgy and stressed. "Vicious" Vic Grimes blames the East Coast BLKOut crew for messing up his title match at "RETRIBUTION" - and he demands Ian Rotten (his Midwest Cannibal Cartel connection) to HANDLE this mess - or GET handled himself! More threats and ominous words of warning from Vic Grimes, before he storms out of the locker room with the Headhunterz by his side and calling Nick Mondo to follow him with his video camera. Vic Grimes has another statement to make... This leaves Ian Rotten and JC Bailey alone in the locker room, where suddenly (in Grimes' absence) the formerly meek and mild Ian Rotten now turns into a tyrant. He verbally abuses and degrades JC Bailey, before ordering him to take out Nick Gage TONIGHT. JC Bailey tries to stick up for himself, but Ian Rotten pulls THIS recent trump card out of his pocket...
"Joseph Carl Bailey Jr. stole a 27-inch TV from the Bardstown Wal-Mart at 5:05 a.m. The case in question began when Bailey, 24, fled from Wal-Mart in a car, and then on foot from police. After he was arrested, authorities took him via Nelson County EMS to Flaget Memorial Hospital for treatment of various head wounds. Police have never found the alleged unnamed accomplice. Official reports from the Bardstown Police Department show Bailey fell onto pavement face first while running away. Officers' notes show he struggled and resisted arrest. Activists and Bailey's family maintain the injuries are too numerous and severe to be the result of a fall and arrest.
JC Bailey mug shot
The incident has been swirling since nearly the outset. Bailey's father has been working with local activists and Coleman since shortly after the incident. Several meetings, some unofficial, with city officials have brought no resolution. He filed a complaint weeks ago, he said, but was told by Bardstown City Attorney Thomas A. Donan the document wasn't acceptable for several reasons, among them, it wasn't notarized. A rally with about a dozen participants was recently held in Bardstown. Attendees held up pictures of Bailey and shouted to passing motorists about police brutality. Another such event will be 3 p.m. Jan 2 at the corner of Fifth and Broadway, Bardstown."

[TRUE STORY]
JC Bailey hangs his head in shame and reluctantly agrees to the slaughter tonight. They are planning a jump and mobb hit on the "Future of Hardcore" himself (and 1st ever Slaughtahouse Stampede match winner) NICK FN GAGE!!! Ian Rotten knows his victory over Gage at "RETRIBUTION" was 1/2 luck / 1/2 Cannibal Cartel influence and Rotten does NOT want to risk the ire of his master Vic Grimes (or another brutal beating at the hands of Gage), so once again he forces the lowly JC Bailey to do his dirty work. The kid has demons, and he's certainly being stifled and abused by the Cartel... but JC Bailey's got heart and talent. Surely you can see that shine through the dark cloud of the Cannibal Cartel...
** CUT TO RING **
Ian Rotten (in full Cannibal Cartel-gear) is in the ring cutting a promo to massive boos. Somewhere at a local show on the East Coast, Ian Rotten is running his mouth about the Cartel and disparaging the BLKOut clique. He uses his win over Gage at "RETRIBUTION" to further tarnish and degrade his name. Finally, the threats and pro-Nick Gage audience chants become too much and the "Future of Hardcore" himself emerges from the back! He answers the challenge with a profanity-laced tirade of his own, before rushing the ring and attacking Rotten! But sure enough, JC Bailey makes the sneak attack run-in, and after a few kicks and stomps, Ian Rotten powders out of the match entirely.
NICK FN GAGE versus JC BAILEY
(Street Fight)
versus
Winner: NICK FN GAGE
Post match, none other than "Vicious" Vic Grimes and the rest of the Cartel goons begin to make the run in! Nick Gage sees this, and wisely flees the ring back into the safety of the audience! He soaks up their adulation and taunts the Cartel further, while Grimes is left fuming in the ring. Angry beyond all reasoning he lambastes Ian Rotten again, before finally - and chillingly - turning his attention to the downed JC Bailey. Vic Grimes DEMANDS "Sick" Nick Mondo continue to film this... Grimes has another statement to make. With that, JC Bailey is excommunicated from the Cannibal Cartel in the most violent, vicious, bloodthirsty manner. Even "Sick" Nick Mondo manning the handheld camcorder is aghast at the torture and violence. Meanwhile, Ian Rotten and the Headhunterz continue under the direction of their leader Vic Grimes and mercilessly murder JC Bailey in the middle of the ring. Shades of the assault that left former Cartel affiliate Lil Chief in a coma (see XPW TV Episode #25 for more details). Vic Grimes takes the mic for the go-home promo, ensuring the dominance of the Cannibal Cartel and gunning to take down reigning XPW East Coast champion Bruno Sammartino... meanwhile JC Bailey is stretchered out, unmoving.

Quick backstage promos from Generation ME (welcoming themselves to XPW Remixed, mocking their so-called "affronts" to wrestling respectability, and promising to "shake the hands" of all the losers in XPW Remixed when Generation ME goes all the way to the top) and the Switchblade Conspiracy team of Jon Moxley & Sammi Callihan w/ Jessica Darlin (complaining of a vast XPW Remixed conspiracy against them, whining about being held down, and offering foul words for the so-called "Real" Kings of Wrestling as well. Switchblade Conspiracy are on a mission in XPW Remixed).
GENERATION ME versus
SWITCHBLADE CONSPIRACY (w/ Jessica Darlin)
versus with
Switchblade Con show their old-school affinity with new school flair. Both are monsters of the mat, adept at chain wrestling or submission seminars. Generation ME are the fastest things you've ever seen in the ring, and their synchronization and complex double-team maneuvers take your breath away. Both teams look great, Jessica Darlin gets camera time to flaunt her assets, and finally the (Real) Kings of Wrestling Austin Idol & Phil Shatter make sure Switchblade Con get their heelish comeuppance. A shot from Shatter knocks Moxley from illegally holding onto the ropes, and he falls victim to a rolling German/450 splash combo from the brothers for the pin!!!
Winners - GENERATION ME
GenME get another defining victory in XPW Remixed on their way to a title shot - Switchblade Conspiracy get something else to complain about - and the (Real) Kings of Wrestling get face time and are strongly positioned as heroes for the crowd.
The (Real) Kings of Wrestling have something to prove!

Diamond Dynasty promo - each speak their piece.
”NATURE BOY” BUDDY ROGERS: Wrestling has changed. Like a 360-degree turn from my day. The holds that were great in my day -- especially the two that I invented, the figure-four leglock and the 'Atomic Knee Drop' -- are still the most famous holds today. The style?(haughtily surmises the classy, million-dollar exterior of his Diamond Dynasty crew)It's changed a lot -- outside of the original style that I invented, like the Strut. Now I’ve brought even more prestige to the XPW Remixed championship by absorbing the RoH title! And after tonight, Terry Funk you will be another notch on this glorious belt!
THE MIZ: The fans always cheer me at events like this or the press conferences. Then at live events they boo me, but show me the respect I deserve. They didn’t do that three years ago, when they literally hated me and couldn’t stand me. They changed the channel, when I was on TV. Now I think I’m starting to earn their respect, which is good.
Jack Swagger & Alex Riley cut an intense promo on those “thugs” New Jack, Pogo the Clown and Snoop Dogg (aka the “West Coast Rydas”). Swagger & Riley promise to get their hands dirty.
** CUT TO RING **
CHRIS CA$H versus MESSIAH versus
ROCKSTAR JOEY KAOS (w/ Missy Hyatt)
(Triple Threat TV Title #1 Contender Match)
versus versus w/
Before the match, an eerie, vaguely-prophetic promo from The MESSIAH airs. In it, he predicts an encroaching darkness about to envelope XPW Remixed. A virtual “Time of Unparralled Darkness” for the entire Territory Wars. What he speaks of is not exactly known, but MESSIAH makes cryptic reference to a “Hexad” – or a series of events prophesized to occur. Once these signs have come to pass, the “Grand Conjunction” will then be complete. The MESSIAH himself continues to remain a soldier in God’s army… may those who wreak havoc upon the soul burn in eternal damnation. The month of October grows only stranger in XPW Remixed…
“Rockstar” Joey KAOS & Missy Hyatt get the televised entrance, joining Ca$h and a sullen Messiah already in the ring (after commercial break). Match itself is a high-paced, torrid affair – a thin slice of their epic level PPV encounter at “RETRIBUTION”. Chris Ca$h in particular continues to impress with his high-octane, dangerous offense. The flashy KAOS offers an entertaining counterpoint while Missy Hyatt (circa 1991) brings the effervescent beauty. But it is the dark and brooding MESSIAH who ultimately prevails, with his dark charisma and determination shining through on every exchange. The intensity he exudes is palpable and he takes the viewing audience along with him on a thrilling journey. In the end, IAN ROTTEN (of the Cannibal Cartel) appeared seemingly out of nowhere to break a Kendo stick over Chris Ca$h’s head – ruining the young man’s chance at a title shot permanently. An inverted Death Valley Driver by MESSIAH upon Kaos ends the match emphatically. Post match, the brooding MESSIAH is approached by MSD for a quick wrap up speech. MESSIAH indicates the first sign of the Hexad has come to pass with his victory, and that this is only the beginning of a much greater uprising. You will all Bear Witness…
Winner (and TV Title #1 Contender): THE MESSIAH

XPW REMIXED BATTLE ROYAL
(Originally the "Dark Match" portion of the recent "RETRIBUTION" PPV)
”SHOOTER” TONY JONES: The latest representative of Ad Santel’s feared “Cali Cripplers” training camp is tossed from the ring first by a huge segment of the ring population to huge cheers. Many fans and competitors are obviously rubbed the wrong way by the cocky, condescending way Ad Santel’s Cripplers club carry themselves.
DANNY HAVOC: The hardcore, Midwestern maniac is high-double back body dropped high over the ring ropes where he crashes unprotected to the arena floor.
NECRO BUTCHER – The XPW Remixed favorite is tossed by his frequent tag team partner / mortal enemy Mad Man Pondo.
ATSUSHI ONITA – Eliminated by Thumbtack Jack after Onita’s own partner Jun Kasai helped toss him! In the aisle after the elimination, Onita stares hard at Kasai with a look of rage and bewilderment while the “Crazy Monkey” Jun Kasai just leers back menacingly with a sick grin on his face.
THUMBTACK JACK – Since breaking from Cult ReBourne, Thumbtack Jack has been repackaged as a pseudo-mad scientist like character from the movie Hostel, and he’s been getting over pretty well with a niche part of the audience. But tonight, he is eliminated by the mysterious NEWCOMER to XPW Remixed who has yet to receive a proper introduction…
HARDBODY HARRISON – The flashy, pimptacular Harrison has been seen in 30-second paid-for commercials on XPW TV promoting his new “woman’s wrestling school”. Tonight, he is summarily ejected from the ring (to big cheers, mind you) by the always popular WEEDMAN, who in turn is…
WEEDMAN – … then eliminated immediately after by the evil Mad Man Pondo, who sneaks up behind Weedman to push him out while Hardbody Harrison grabs the masked man illegally from outside the ring.
JUN KASAI – The popular “Crazy Monkey” plays face-in-peril to the brutal Mad Man Pondo, before making the brief comeback. But Kasai misses a torpedo dive – gets tangled in the ropes – and propels himself to the floor and elimination.
MADMAN PONDO – Amidst a renewed push as an undead Confederate soldier, ala the movie “2001 Maniacs”, Pondo draws massive heel heat from the XPW audience – familiar with his antics within the company. But he’s finally eliminated after a stunning series of maneuvers by this mysterious newcomer leads to Pondo getting caught in a wicked hangmans noose in the ropes before dropping to the floor like a 300-lb turd!
WINNER: (Unknown) – The mysterious newcomer – known only by Striker & Solie on commentary as “The Holy One” – triumphs in dramatic fashion! His face is partially covered by long flowing hair, and his apparel makes him look vaguely like an Altar Boy. Whoever he is, the first impression he made upon the XPW Remixed audience tonight is an eye-opening one, to say the least...
Winner: THE HOLY ONE

EZEKIEL JACKSON versus ABDULLAH the BUTCHER
(Xtreme Rules Falls Count Anywhere Match)
versus
This is punishment for the insolence Ezekiel Jackson continues to show “The Commission” by defying their orders. TGW & Pfefer hoped to control the monster Jackson by dangling XPW Remixed title shots before him. But the “Apocalypse of 2012” has chosen to blaze his own path. It continued at “RETRIBUTION” when he defeated 3 men in a handicap match, and tonight as well – when he clashes with the Madman from the Sudan in an Xtreme Rules Falls Count Anywhere match. It’s a brilliant display of Jackson’s superhuman strength, as he performs eye popping stunts all over the arena with his opponent. Abdullah holds his own, sending fear into the heart of every fan around him – keeping a WIDE berth around their brawl as they make their way around the arena. Popcorn machines get pitched, bathroom stall doors are literally ripped from their hinges and a bloody trail of destruction is wrought around the arena. When Ezekiel Jackson finally pins Abdullah the Butcher (after a “Book of Ezekiel” uranage through the wooden merchandise table) the whole thing vaguely resembles a murder scene, with puddles of Abdullah’s blood and bloody handprints and smears everywhere (post match, XPW Remixed T-shirts stained with Abdullah’s Hep-C all sold for 3x their cost). Ezekiel Jackson wants his belt back!!!
Winner: EZEKIEL JACKSON
** CUT **
_________________________________________________________________________________________
MILDRED BURKE versus SKANDOR AKBAR
versus
An ongoing example of XPW Remixed Woman’s Division president LIZZY BORDEN’s attempt to “break” newcomer Mildred Burke with acts of humiliation and degradation. Borden assigned Burke’s opponent for the night, and takes up guest commentary alongside Striker & Solie to sell her vision of the woman’s division to the audience. Before the match, a brief backstage segment in the woman’s locker room between Mildred Burke (suiting up for completion) and the reigning XPW Remixed woman’s champion ALEXXIS NEVAEH. Positive meeting between the two, with Alexxis offering her support and Burke showing her respect. Classy display by the two ladies (in direct contrast to Borden’s boorish and trashy behavior). Cut to another backstage interview segment with MSD, who is interviewing the irate Skandor Akbar. He cuts a feverish, sexist, Anti-American promo promising to break the American woman Mildred Burke and put her in her place! The ring is no place for woman!!! With heel heat suitably driven, the evil Middle Eastern Skandor Akbar is thoroughly and ritualistically HUMILIATED by Mildred Burke, in what will become Akbar’s last XPW Remixed appearance! To the crowd’s utter delight, and Lizzy’s excited eyes, Burke dismantles Akbar before locking in a fight-ending triangle choke that has him frantically tapping out between her thighs!!! Another brilliant display by Burke, as Borden flirts mercilessly on commentary.
Winner (by submission): MILDRED BURKE

USO's (w/ Ad Santel & Tamina) versus
DAN SEVERN & DRAKE YOUNGER (w/ Lou Thesz)
versus
Video package highlights the feud between Lou Thesz and his Shooters Club, and old training partner Ad Santel’s “Cali Cripplers” – culminating in their elimination tag match at “RETRIBUTION” (won by Thesz). Segue to a promo from Santel (with his Cripplers standing behind him) as he boasts about his team, and puts over the Uso Bros in particular for this next match-up. Then, we see Thesz and his boys ready for war. Dan “The Beast” Severn and Drake Younger get a few moments of mic time to put over their accomplishments, big-up the Shooters Club, and promise to teach the Cali Cripplers a lesson they’ll never forget. Match itself is an excellent display of tag team wrestling. Severn is a beast, and Younger is bursting with energy and aggression. But the natural instincts of the brotherly Uso duo has the clear advantage in team chemistry. In the end, their valet Tamina proves to be instrumental in orchestrating a distraction that leads to Drake Younger getting pinned illegally. Post match, another brawl ensues – but before the Uso’s can level Younger with twin top rope splashes, the REST of the Shooters Club and Cali Cripplers get involved – turning it into a wild, bench-clearing brawl rife with XPW security and off-duty cops trying to regain control. Bad feelings between the two camps have only been ratcheted up after this debacle.
Winners: USO’s

Millennium Wrestling Federation = "XPW Remixed Boston"
"REAL DEAL" DAMIEN STEELE versus DICK SHIKAT
(XPW Boston Championship)
versus
On commentary, Solie & Striker dissect and analyze Dick Shikat’s shoot on Danno O’Mahoney at the “RETRIBUTION” PPV (where Shikat stole the Boston championship with chicanery). XPW Commissioner “Real Deal” Damien Steele gets a nice babyface reaction, and comes close on a few occasions to liberating the Boston championship from Shikat’s clutches. But the wily, bone-breaking veteran displays his ruthless aggression and winds up locking Steele in his inescapable modified chicken wing for the tap out. But it’s what happens AFTER the match that is most noteworthy…
Winner (by submission, and STILL XPW Boston Champion): DICK SHIKAT
Post match, Shikat and his mouthpiece JACK PFEFER take the ring for another self-aggrandizing heel promo. Pfefer continues on his tirade against XPW Remixed East Coast owners Toots Mondt & Strangler Lewis, while continuing the “Shikat will sell the title to the highest bidder” plot line. But this time, that threat is answered by a wild, unprovoked assault by 3 uninivited men in street clothes who bum rush the set through the audience and take it over! They clear the ring, and with Shikat and Pfefer looking on from the entrance ramp in shock, anger and horror – and the audience applauding and exploding with surprise – make their triumphant XPW Remixed debut!
Introducing
The NEW Triple Threat!!!
Shane Douglas, Eddie Gilbert, Chris Candido & Sunny!!!
Conspiracy theories, justified anger, resentment, bitterness and inner rage is on full display here as these 3 men are SICK of being held down, mistreated and played out! Now they're taking over the Territory Wars, starting right here in XPW Remixed!!!

"NATURE BOY" BUDDY ROGERS versus TERRY FUNK
(XPW Remixed West Coast Championship)
versus
Terry Funk gets a chance before the commercial break to cut an impassioned backstage promo, calling Rogers an “egg-sucking dog” among things, and promising to take the title tonight! Big time main event entrances for both men, and a hellacious main event. Perhaps the first “real” test Rogers has had since becoming his own “West coast” champion. Rogers is forced to roll out of the ring to retreat, stall and gather with his second for the night Alex Riley. Finally, Funk rolls out after him, clonks the heads of Riley and Rogers together like coconuts, and continues on the offense. Rogers takes over with chicanery and grinds Funk into the mat, working his legs and looking for the Figure 4. Terry Funk makes the comeback though, but illegal interference by the Prodigy Alex Riley derails his momentum permanently and Rogers wins with a roll-up! (clutching the tights and using the ropes for leverage!) Rogers retains and Funk is pissed!
Winner (and STILL XPW Remixed West Coast Champion): NATURE BOY BUDDY ROGERS
Post match, Funk begins a wild, crowd pleasing brawl – taking out Rogers with a chair shot before hammering the holy hell out of Riley in the ring. This draws Diamond Dynasty cohort JACK SWAGGER to ringside, where he (alongside Rogers and a recuperated Alex Riley) stomp out Terry Funk 3 on 1… just then none other than EZEKIEL JACKSON (!!!) makes the surprise run-in for the save!!! Like a monster unleashed he clears the ring, striking fear into the reigning champion with his outburst!!! Big Zeke wants his belt back, and Buddy Rogers looks horrified at the notion!!!
** CUT **
__________________________________________________________________________________
A BLOOD FEUD EXPLODES
Main event in-ring promo to end the show. XPW Remixed champion (East Coast version) Bruno Sammartino enters in street clothes with his championship belt proudly on display. He has the mic and cuts a promo on “Vicious” Vic Grimes. He knows Grimes has been looking for him, and Bruno never ducks – so here he is! Let’s settle this like men RIGHT NOW! Sure enough, his tough talk draws out the Cannibal Cartel (Grimes, with the Headhunterz and “Sick” Nick Mondo) and suddenly Sammartino is outnumbered. But his stoic expression never belies any sense of fear or intimidation. Bruno is standing up for what he knows is right!
Intense exchange between the two men, culminating in another challenge – this time at “Halloween in Hell”. But not just ANY match… an “EXPLODING RING MATCH!” The first to ever be contested in the Territory Wars, and a foreign concept to such a pure-school thoroughbred like Sammartino! But Bruno never backs down, and for the chance to drive Grimes and his Cartel out of XPW Remixed forever, he is willing to sacrifice anything… even his own LIFE. Sammartino accepts and suddenly we’ve got our next PPV main event.
Words continue to be exchanged, and before you know it, chaos erupts!!! Grimes orders “Sick” Nick Mondo to attack Bruno but the Italian Strongman is just too much. He hurls Mondo about the ring while the crowd goes crazy! But it’s the titanic force of the twin Headhunterz that finally proves fatal for Bruno, and they overtake the XPW remixed champion. But not so fast!
To the rescue – NEW tag team champions BLKOut (Sabian & Ruckus) along with Annie Social and their East coast leader NICK FN GAGE!!! The wild, East Coast street gang makes the run-in through the crowd and continue their blood feud with the Cartel! BLKOut and the Headhunterz brawl while Sammartino and Grimes go at it one-on-one! Gage and Bruno team up right at the end to deliver a huge double clothesline that takes Grimes over the top rope to the floor where he retreats with his team!!! Sammartino and Gage have the tense stare down to end the show (no handshake, but begrudgingly they respect each other). Sammartino versus Grimes in an “Exploding Ring Match” at HALLOWEEN IN HELL!!!!
