Cut to the in-studio announce team for the evening:
Gordon Solie & Matt Striker
Stone-faced intro from Solie & Striker who apologize to viewers who purchased “The 18th Letter” iPPV and experienced technical difficulties. In response, XPW Remixed will be airing the remainder of the title match main event tonight. Plus - huge breaking news regarding another XPW championship - Thesz & Joe will respond to the controversial finish of the PPV - and Commissioner William Muldoon has been reported entering the building! Will he finally break his silence? The night is rife with uncertainty - but one thing has become crystal clear as we embark upon the road to “Another Halloween in Hell”…
__________________________________________________________________________
"Controversy Erupts at iPPV"
(Satellite feed time exceeded - PPV cut before main event was finished)
"The 18th Letter" iPPV exceeded the alloted 3 hour time limit, and thus the main event was cut-off before a finish. This, on top of multiple glitches and technical difficulties earlier in the night resulted in many angry viewer complaints. VP Toots Mondt blamed the outage solely on the iPPV provider and refused to offer refunds. A *HUGE* blow to the credibility and solvency of the company, this move resulted in massive fan backlash and desertion. On top of that - the companys decision to air the rest of the main event tonight - for free - has infuriated those that paid for it on Sunday.
Continuing where the PPV left off - Joe had Thesz locked in tight - but with his last ounce of strength Thesz was able to run up the turnbuckle pad and land on top of Joe with his shoulders down (a familiar counter for Thesz). This time, Joe kicked out - and released the hold - at the count of 2.95... Joe tried rapid fire pinfall attempts himself but Thesz wriggled out until coming to rest in the ropes and forcing a break. Joe was beyond frustrated. So frustrated he took it out on the referee by delivering a pulverizing muscle buster to him. With no official, Joe went for the steel chair cheat code - but a second referee intervened at the last moment. He seriously threatened to DQ Joe for good (ending his championship opportunity) until none other than XPW VP Joseph “Toots” Mondt made the run down.
He forbade the referee from ringing the bell - and insisted the match carry out as planned. Joe went after Thesz again with the chair - but now Thesz was recuperated enough to mount an offense and the fight continued. 60 minutes they fight to a stalemate, with the bell ringing just as it had to begin - with both men warily (this time exhausted) circling each other. The official decision was a “DRAW” but both men (and the voraciously booing audience) objected, so a 10-minute over time period was instated. That just meant another 600 seconds of defensive strategy that kicked into a last flurry of offense as the seconds ticked away, but neither man was able to secure a finish. Draw ending with tie going to the champion.
Winner: NONE (Draw)
** CUT **
** BACKSTAGE PROMOS **
versus
Words from the challenger Samoa Joe and champion Lou Thesz (albeit in completely different segments hallways apart from away from each other)… neither is satisfied with the end result they just express it differently. Thesz is matter-of-fact and business-like, while Joe is a borderline raging lunatic. The state of the championship union is still in flux, but one thing is certain - a massive 6-man Superstar tag team match has been signed for tonight’s main event…
The “Dream Team” of XPW World champion Lou Thesz, John Cena & Bruno Sammartino
vs.
The “Nightmare Team” of Samoa Joe, Taz & Phil “Gunner” Shatter!
The winning team will gain immeasurable momentum going into the championship decider.
STAY TUNED!!

HAKUSHI vs. LORD TENSAI (w/ Onita)
versus w/
Lord Tensai def. Hakushi via double-fisted choke bomb. The new recruit of Atsushi Onita displays all of the Oriental wrestling stereotypes that are so awesome in American wrestling… the paralyzing mist sprayed upon his hands before the nerve clutch - the stiff shoot strikes - mysterious martial arts skills… the much bigger Tensai dominates and brutalizes Hakushi while Onita roars his approval at ringside. Onita puts the final nail in Hakushi’s XPW Remixed coffin with a brutal, degrading post match promo that ends with a disrespectful SLAP across the face. Hakushi is sacrificed to the new Far East evil of the Black Army…
Winner: LORD TENSAI

”Another Wilts Away”
(The Curse of XPW Remixed)
Brief words from XPW Remixed president Ed “Strangler” Lewis… he’s under attack from all sides and his company’s livelihood is in the balance. Everybody’s after the championship belt - even his own business partners. This also being that very special time of year (“Another Halloween in Hell” iPPV coming HALLOWEEN NIGHT!) - we also speak of the so-called “XPW Remixed curse”. A legend that has only gained more traction in the wake of recent catastrophic Territory Wars events. Just this week, it was announced the AWA would cease functioning. Fresh on the heels of an inter-promotional dream match that saw Ed Lewis and Verne Gagne shake hands and Lou Thesz defend the XPW World title against Mr Perfect (see Xpw TV #47: Thesz vs. Mr Perfect) - another failed attempt to dethrone the longest reigning champion in company history. Was it a coincidence? Or is the AWA just following the design of death laid down before it? A so-called “curse” that affects any fantasy wrestling company that does business with XPW Remixed. Starting when GDT Inc first burst through the doors and put Ozzmania’s ECW out of business… to the rumors about Kiernan Polland being forced out of ROH at gunpoint… or the mysterious rash of “medical ailments” being suffered by Logan Boggs (and NOT the result of being tied up and beaten with sacks of soap bars) in TNA. Now - President Lewis fears this so-called “XPW Remixed curse” may feast upon itself. That’s why it is with all the presidential bluster he can muster that Ed Lewis promises to go “old school”. To fix this mess like promoters used to back in his day… the *REAL* way. Ed “Strangler” Lewis has a big announcement to make next week - an ace in the hole that will end this secret war in his favor once and for all… STAY TUNED

FABULOUS KANGAROOS vs… LOD!!
vs.
Opens with an angry, indignant in-ring promo from the FabKangs - who lament their loss @ "The 18th Letter" and *sadly* inform the fans Wild Red Berry has suffered 3rd degree burns and can't be here (YAAAAAY! says the crowd!) But it doesn't matter, because the FabKangs have moved onto BIGGER and BETTER things... the CROCKETT CUP! They have already moved one step closer towards proving themselves the most dominant team in fantasy wrestling history! Until they are interupted by... THE LEGION OF DOOM! Surprise retort from the shoulder-spiked Chicaco street toughs that puts the FabKangs manhood in question and results in this impromptu brawl! The FabKangs are former 2x XPW Remixed tag team champions - one of the most enduring heel acts in tag team wrestling history - and bonafied legends of the game. But tonight - they are Power & Glory at Wrestlemania 7. Wham, bam, Doomsday Device to Costello, and thank you ma'am. Hawk & Animal continue their meteoric rise up the XPW Remixed tag team rankings... and judging by the massive crowd reaction, it's only a matter of time before they get their shot...
Winners: LOD

** BREAKING NEWS **
(RVD fails PED test - Stripped of XPW TV title!!)
In shocking and breaking news - the results of RVD’s post-fight urine analysis at “The 18th Letter” came back POSITIVE! Rob Van Dam failed the drug test for THC - the main component in marijuana. And unfortunately - like Nick Diaz and ex-Olympic Nick Depopulas before him - THC is considered a Performance Enhancing Drug. In response to the sudden vacancy of the XPW TV title - matchmakers have scrambled for a solution: an 8-man single elimination tourney to crown a new champion. Tonight - a series of dark match qualifiers - next week the tourney officially begins.
** DARK MATCHES
(XPW TV title tourney qualifying matches) *
Jinder Mahal def. Drake Younger
(Mahal thought the vacant title should automatically awarded to him - instead he takes his fury out on Drake Younger, who ultimately falls to Mahal's camel clutch submission)
Colt Cabana(2012) def. Honky Tonk Man (1987)
(“Boom Boom” Cabana overcomes storyline rival HTM with style and flavor)
Human Tornado def. Ruckus
(Another mix of “style & substance” with both men shaking hands post match)
Gorgeous George def. Ricky Reyes
(ALL “style” - with Gorgeous George elaborate pre-match ritual leading to a lot of hemming, hawing, and stalling - until a surprise roll-up from George ends the actual *match* in about 3.5 seconds)
Alberto Del Rio receives Qualifying match bye
(Quick promo from Del Rio touting his victory over Mascaras and promising championship glory at “Another Halloween in Hell”)
Damien Sandow def. Sabu
(Quick pre-match promo lamenting the loss of his manager Wild Red Berry due to Xtreme idiocy (see “The 18th Letter”) - Sandow then takes that anger out on Sabu - forcing the Wildman to dive through his own table before hitting the neck breaker finisher for a pinfall)
John Morrison def. Matt Morgan (w/ Buddy Rogers)
(Morgan has things well in hand - until the run in tandem interference of the MCMG!! Revenge for “The 18th Letter” and their attack leads to a starship pain from Morrison for the surprising upset! Morgan, Rogers & Mark Henry are ENRAGED)
NEXT WEEK:

”Another Lawsuit Filed”
Irate over the loss of his FOCUS trademarks - and upset at the GDT Inc hierarchy for not supporting him more in the wake of his loss (especially after he offered such invaluable legal advice to them in the beginning) - Harvard Lawyer David Otunga is spearheading the lawsuit by Necro Butcher & Sandman! Brief backstage skit shows Otunga letting himself into President Strangler Lewis’ office and personally serving him with the paperwork. Necro & Sandman just smirk behind him like money-hungry moochers grateful to Otunga for chasing their ambulance. They are suing XPW Remixed for false advertisement and unsafe work environments amongst other things. Otunga and his clients leave the office on their mighty high horses, while Strangler Lewis is left to review the paperwork claims with disgust…

** BACKSTAGE INTERLUDE **
Cameras catch up with XPW VP Joseph “Toots” Mondt who is finishing up a conversation on his cellphone. His bone breakers Dino Bravo & Dick Shikat surround him. When informed of Ed Lewis’ vague threats to go “old school” - Toots Mondt stoic expression drops to his feet. Mondt says he’s a betting man - but if the Strangler is talking about who he thinks he is - then Mondt wouldn’t bet against THAT horse... But for now, Mondt just got off the phone with the state athletic commission and it’s official - LOU THESZ has been ordered to defend the XPW World title against SAMOA JOE in the rematch of the century! The big fight will happen on October 31st at “Another Halloween in Hell”!!

”Clouds over the championship Reign”
XPW Remixed Tag Team champions Dudley Boyz take to the ring for a celebratory promo. Big time baby face reaction from the fans, and the Dudz tout their supremecy and promise to reveal the next #1 contender… another veritable “dream match” in XPW Remixed - the only place big and bad enough to host such a fight. A team the Dudley Boyz respect tremendously… a team the Dudley Boyz says is holding them back from immortality… for only if the Dudz beat this team can they truly say they are the GREATEST TEAM IN HISTORY… that team is…
Violent interruption. Before the Dudz can reveal, they are cut off - and ultimately attacked by the ultimate fantasy wrestling mercenaries - the PITBULLS! They whip the Dudz with chains, choke them out a little and execute a thunderous super bomb to D-Von Dudley from the top rope through a table (on which Bubba Ray was already laid out on)… The Pitbulls end the celebration and pose menacingly over the Dudz ravaged bodies…

KILO © (w/ Sammi Lane) vs FRENCH ANGEL
("Title Shot Match")
w/ versus
The whole horrible ordeal between Kilo / Sammi Lane / French Angel is reviewed in terrifying video fashion. Kilo physically crushed Sammi Lane - then physically and psychologically strung her out on opiates until she is the crushed, hollow shell you see before her tonight (think Winter/Angelina Love TNA 2011). The transformation has ruined what little sanity French Angel had left - until he has been reduced to a mournful, broken lost soul. Sammi Lane remains in her near catatonic state like Linda McMahon in a wheelchair while Angel is literally *forced* into accepting this match by the offices of Jack Pfefer (formerly Robert Black). It was gifted with the backhanded caveat “Title Shot match” - as in, if French Angel can overcome the psychological demons of even being forced to face Kilo and Sammi Lane together and triumph - THEN he receives a title shot… instead of getting one right away with this match. It’s a sick tease like a poisoned carrot on a stick, hoping to drive the mule (French Angel) into an early demise. Anytime the rage does consume French Angel and he begins to win the match - he’s somehow forced to see Sammi Lane again, and his heart melts as he desperately tries to get to her and rescue her. Leading to further attack from Kilo.
The sick swerve at the end (and diabolical Jack Pfefer ploy) comes when none other than DEAN AMBROSE arrives on the scene to pick the remains of Angel like a vulture. Ambrose uses a Razors-Edge crucifix bomb (akin to Sheamus’ Celtic Cross…) to spike French Angel… and pin him in the middle of the mat?? Both Kilo & Dean Ambrose celebrate their ploy (with a rabid & gleeful Kilo being met with subtle derision and disgust by Dean) - and Dean Ambrose cuts a post match promo. The stipulation of the match promised a “title shot” opportunity - although it was not specified which title must be pursued. Ambrose uses this loophole to declare himself similar to a MitB winner. In that he has earned a “Title Shot” card to be used at a later date - on a championship title he has yet to reveal… The Black Army centerpiece Dean Ambrose has just re-upped his championship potential and cemented his political alignment with the offices of Jack Pfefer. Another underhanded ploy on Dean’s behalf to regain traction in the wake of rival stablemate Onita debuting Lord Tensai…
Winner (??): DEAN AMBROSE
** CUT **
** BACKSTAGE INTERLUDE **
Jack Pfefer is caught in his office wrapping up a speaker phone conversation with Rob Black (in which Black is asking when it’s safe for his return, but Pfefer keeps blowing him off)… MSD finally gets a word from the Interim VP and the question on everybody’s mind is - why was Jack Pfefer in the luxury skybox with Anderson Silva © and Junior Dos Santos © @ “The 18th Letter”?? Jack Pfefer is cocky and sly, refusing to disclose the entire truth - but indicates everybody within GDT Inc is mounting up in anticipation of a final climatic explosion. When that happens, Jack Pfefer plans to have surrounded himself with the right team and cabinet to be the last man standing… in the meantime, the Black Army sits upon the precipice of great change as Dean Ambrose now holds the key to an unspecified title shot... when questioned whether Rob Black is part of these plans, Pfefer gets rude and belligerent - tossing MSD from his office.

A segment that puts over cut matches in fast, MTV-styled, video hype clips - usually set to some kind of heavy metal or Hip Hop background music.. this is the kind of stuff that would have appeared on the now-dormant XPW Online, or within the 3rd hour of XPW TV that has been lost...
Trish Stratus def. Wendi Richter & Annie Social (Triple Threat)
(Sable is announced the #1 contender - and will face champion Awesome Kong NEXT WEEK on XPW TV for the title!!)
GenerationME def. Kendrick & London
(Another high-flying, death-defying, Classic cruiserweight/X Division masterpiece. This time GenME come out victorious in the turbo race up the Tag Team rankings)
Tommaso Ciampa def. Black Tiger IV (Debut)
(Evil Ciampa runs up undefeated streak over *debuting* masked marvel - actually Rocky Romero under a mask, tinkering with a new XPW Remixed gimmick. No dice - the bigger story is Tommaso Ciampa's new mysterious East Coast tutelage)
Powers of Potential (Matt Morgan & Mark Henry w/ Buddy Rogers)

(see "The 18th Letter")... using Death Match logic, Sami Callihan enters himself into the match - takes over - and eliminates both men! He stacks their bodies on top of each other to pin them - and declares HIMSELF in the Xtreme Elimination Chamber! Sami Callihan is back - worse than ever - and ready to leave a mark in the Black Army's signature match!!)

”Making a Play for Prime Time”
The XPW Remixed Prime Time Playaz (Kaos & Titus) enter the arena. Angry pre-match promo from Kaos (still wearing his imitation “World Champion Wrestler” man title belt and “I BEAT AUSTIN ARIES” T-shirt. Kaos angrily disses SHANE DOUGLAS - and we learn tonight for the first time, apparently Shane Douglas has LEFT XPW Remixed… TO SIGN WITH WCW! As an exact replay of his original real-world departure of XPW (see MSD recaps “XPW TV Season One” on the Demented Fields board!) - Shane Douglas has apparently turned his back on his word and fled for a higher paycheck. “U sold out” chants for that. Kaos goes on another rant that draws “WCW” (and therefore WCW champion Austin Aries) into the gunfire… until we get an unbelievable, unforeseen, unadvertised surprise interruption…
AUSTIN ARIES © versus ROCKSTAR KAOS
(Impromptu Inter-promotional showdown)

WTF?!? The crowd EXPLODES! Kaos' sunglasses fall off his face in shock! Titus O'Neil looks lost and off script! The so-called "Greatest Man Alive" enters XPW Remixed arena... with his championship belt!! But instead of boos reserved for an invader - he gets the rousing CHEERS of a great conquerer! Austin Aries then proceeds to ROAST Kaos on the mic - destroying his credibility, style and imitation championship belt. It even leads to an impromptu throwdown that tears the house up for the 3-5 minutes or so it lasts. Classic XPW vs Modern Day TNA ("slash/WCW randomone version") DREAM MATCH! Titus O'Neil winds up getting taken out by an Aries dive - and Kaos jobs clean to a sick brainbuster in the center of the ring! Austin Aries takes a bow - BOTH championship belts (including Kaos' fake one) - and LEAVES! Crowd can't stop cheering - even all through the replays. What an unscheduled, unmitigated SURPRISE X-FACTOR that just appeared on XPW TV! A place where literally ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!!
Winner: AUSTIN ARIES

SHEAMUS vs. BIG SHAD G (w/ Rashad Cameron)
versus w/
New XPW Remixed Boston champion SHEAMUS (2012) comes out for a rabble-rousing, fan favorite promo. He confirms the “sell-out” rumors are true and that Shane Douglas bailed for higher ground instead of seeking his title rematch. Sheamus can only draw one conclusion regarding that decision and it has something do with an old Irish tale revolving around a certain part of the female anatomy. But before Sheamus can really drive home his point about his continued domination of fantasy wrestling - he’s interrupted by the beat of a very familiar XPW Remixed public menace…
Enter RASHAD CAMERON & The Movement!!
Rashad Cameron and his minions come hard on the mic about white devils and racism - and since Comissioner Muldoon got what he deserved, and they can’t call his pasty Irish ass out - they are targeting the big fish. The most racist of all: “THE GREAT WHITE SHEAMUS”. Their off-color rant goads Sheamus into accepting a challenge that will surely lead to his demise at the hands of a violent gang beat down. Until none other than COMMISSIONER WILLIAM MULDOON himself returns to exact justice!!
The Commissioner admits he is low on firepower, as political enemies are mining and stripping his booking abilities as we speak. But with his last and final shots in the chamber - he orders JTG, Michael Tarver & Ricky Reyes (all men without a *managers license*) be removed from ringside! Once again they angrily complain of racism, until Muldoon has security physically remove them (in handcuffs, none the less) - as Big Shad G & Rashad Cameron are thoroughly thrown off their game moments before the big encounter. In the few minutes of this heavyweight slugfest, William Muldoon takes up residence beside Solie & Striker and finally breaks his silence. The Taz attack he suffered was the final straw, and he realized this lawless land was beyond repair. It’s too steeped in corruption and founded upon illegal blood money it can never be truly saved. He gives his blessing and prayers to those who seek unfinished business, but effectively at the end of the night - William Muldoon is resigning his position as XPW Remixed Commissioner. As Sheamus winds up out out-brawling Big Shad G and catching him with a flash Brogue kick for the pin, Muldoon hints that he has one last proverbial “bullet” in the chamber before the end of the night… Meanwhile, Rashad Cameron and company are left to continue their grudge and have more ammunition of their own for a so-called “racist conspiracy” in fantasy wrestling…
Winner: SHEAMUS

MILDRED BURKE (w/ Rowdy Ronda Rousey)

TAMINA (w/ Uso's)
(Sanctioned Competition)
w/ versus w/
It is with much pomp and fanfare that Mildred Burke (and training partner Ronda Rousey) get their grand TV entrance. It’s a celebratory night, as the contractual handcuffs that have bound Mildred Burke since her XPW Remixed inception have finally been snapped. Tonight - she officially becomes part of the Woman’s division - and can begin competing for the title. A title she feels she never truly lost… She and Rousey celebrate the only way they know how - by issuing a challenge. Burke’s first official shot across the bow goes to old foe TAMINA - of which she still has unfinished business. Ad Santel has been removed from fantasy wrestling, but his Cali Cripplers stink still lingers. Tonight - not only does Mildred Burke tap Tamina out with a triangle choke (after a smartly competitive match) - she and her partner Ronda Rousey wind up running twin armbar seminars upon the Uso brothers as well (who ran in post match to try to get over on the girls, but wound up getting caught and embarrassed)!! Wow! Mildred Burke is BACK in XPW Remixed woman’s competition! She’s starting at the bottom of the ranking ladder and eager to work her way up! She now stands 1-0!
Winner (by submission): MILDRED BURKE

JOHN CENA, BRUNO SAMMARTINO & LOU THESZ
(w/ Alexxis Nevaeh)
versus
SAMOA JOE, TAZ & PHIL “GUNNER” SHATTER
(w/ Jessica Darlin)
w/
versus
w/
Vignettes ran all night of all 6 men getting re-acquainted with each other slowly. The lingering resentment between Thesz & Sammartino remains, while Thesz & Cena (and Cena/Sammartino) have promising exchanges hinting at a great rivalry. Everybody wants the hardware Lou Thesz carries around his waist - especially GDT Inc who could be ruined if Thesz took their title lineage with him elsewhere. Thesz of course would also be the greatest coup in Paul Bowser’s new endeavor as well, but for some reason Thesz remains tethered to the West Coast XPW Remixed scene. Like Cena, he too has alluded to some heavy unfinished business that keeps him here (while other more cynical types have questioned whether Thesz could retain his attendance figures and crowd appeal in the North East - and that’s what is keeping him in the Mid West/West Coast area). Regardless - the new Paul Bowser venture has not been finalized yet - and steady prize fight money is the only way these gladiators know. So they fight on. All the early backstage vignettes and this match culminates with Lou Thesz admitting the reason he stays is because his “DRAW” with Joe MUST be avenged! It's personal now - and if Thesz can't defeat Joe straight up - he doesn't *deserve* to be a champion... anywhere!
Taz and Joe continue to work together in vicious tandem, but there seems to be a festering resentment between them, ever since Taz official championship banishment. His violent ego won’t let him surrender that right to his apprentice Samoa Joe, and it leads to some tenuous exchanges. Gunner & Darlin remain a hot mess as always - a train wreck waiting to happen. Match itself is a pure slobber knocker. Even Thesz succumbs to the work environment and winds up exchanging a lot of forearm shivers, European uppercuts and hurling dropkicks. Ultimately - the story of redemption continues - and the good guys prove once again evil has no unity. A serious fissure in the Joe/Taz alliance leads to a catastrophic match breakdown - and baby face overload. An injured Thesz (favoring his ribs especially after this match) is saved from a match-ending spear attempt by Gunner when John Cena FUAA’s him into the center of the ring. Then, in an amazing display of strength, Bruno Sammartino dead-lifts Gunner into his over-the-shoulder backbreaker position! Jessica Darlin has no choice but to throw the white cum-rag in for her man, signaling a submission! Taz & Joe are disgusted over the loss and angrily part ways (silently and separately) - while the good guys end the show in begrudging respect (and each of them jostling to be next in line for a championship match... Samoa Joe - knowing he's got his PPV rematch in the bag - basically bailed on the match and left his teammates high and dry (like a pro sports team resting its starters before the playoffs begin)...
Winners: THESZ, CENA & SAMMARTINO
