---

The opening credits and video package roll as Monday Night Madness hit’s the air along with its theme song, “Long Way to the Top” by AC/DC plays throughout the arena.




Pyro explodes throughout the United Center as the camera pans the roaring Chicago crowd. The pyro stops as the cameras continue to give live shots of the crowd.


Steve Sayors: “WELCOME EVERYONE… TO MONDAY NIGHT… MADNESS... LIVE FROM THE SOLD OUT UNITED CENTER IN CHICAGO ILLINOIS!! I am your host and the voice of Monday nights, Steve Sayors, alongside me as always, the lovely Liz Weinberg. Liz, what do you think we'll see tonight!?"

Liz Weinberg: "Chicago is a hot wrestling metropolis and tonight, they are in for a real show! The main event tonight will have Jeff Hardy going one on one with the young up and comer Neil Capra in a last... man... standing match with Jeff Hardys XWF European title on the line!"

SS: "Also in action tonight, Ursula Areano will go one on one with Alex Shawn. As we saw last week, she made her return and attacked Jeff Hardy! If she can pull out a victory tonight, she will get that title shot she seeks!"

LW: "A big tag team match with Benjamin Crane and Agony going head to head with Crimson Cobra and Martin O' Connor! Also on the books, a late addition! A steel cage match pitting Homeless Jimmy one on one with X-L-D-I-G... whatever the hell his name is!"

SS: "Plus, I have it on good authority, the Monday Night Madness General Manager, Paul Heyman WILL have a huge announcement tonight! Rumors have been running rampant all week about this announcement!"

LW: "We might not have to wait long!"

SS: "Here he comes! The Mad Man of Madness, Paul Heyman is on his way out!"

---

Paul Heymans ECW theme plays throughout the arena as he makes his way toward the ring to a thunderous ovation from the crowd on hand in Chicago! He steps through the ropes and seemingly inhales the crowd reaction.


Ring Announcer: "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the General Manager of Monday Night Madness... Misterrr PAUL... HEYMANNN!"


The ring announcer hands his microphone to Paul Heyman.


Paul Heyman: "God damn, I live for this shit!"


The crowd pops for Paulie.


PH: "It's been the talk of the dirtsheets for a couple of weeks now! Rumors have been swirling and running wild a bit! Tonight on Madness, for the first time in its history, I am pleased to announce.... we have a roster!!!"


More cheers from the Madness crowd.


PH: "A bonafide roster for Monday Nights! A roster that will be encouraged to take it to the XTREEEEME every god damned Monday night! A roster not held back by the 'creative process' and ass kissers that stand in this ring and Tebow to a god damned logo!"


Chicago loves Paulie!


PH: "A roster that isn't forced to win their jobs back! A roster that can say shit, fuck, cunt, asshole whenever the FUCK THEY WANT!"


Chicago likes the Witasick digs!


PH: "So, periodically throughout the night, the names of the first ever Madness roster WILL be released!"


Perhaps, Chicago just likes to be heard?


PH: "It is a small roster to start with, but it is nonetheless, a start! Next week, in order to allow my roster to get acclimated to their new surroundings, bookings will be taken as usual."


Paul could probably talk about clouds and candy bars and probably get a pop right now.


PH: "Without further adieu, I'd like to point your attention to the X-TRON for your first announced member or members of the Madness roster!"

---

The fans quiet down and look toward the X-TRON which lights up. Paul Heyman quietly makes his exit. A drum roll is heard. Binary code fills up the X-TRON. One by one the numbers disappear rapidly leaving the X-Tron blank again.


On the screen of the X-TRON:


175

















The 175 disappears into the background.










On the screen of the X-TRON:

AGONY


Madness fades to commercial.

---

SS: "Welcome back to Madness, folks! I'm not exactly sure what we just witnessed other than the fact that JC Styles and Agony are the first announced members of the Madness roster!"

LW: "I'm not entirely certain, but I think that was a form of numerology, Steve!"

SS: "You could be right, in any event it is time for our first match of the night! Let's send it to the ring!"

Homeless Jimmy - vs - XLDIGJYTRWWWQ Steel Cage Match

Ring Announcer: "The following contest is a steel caaaaage maaaaatch.... The only ways to win are by pinfall, submission, or by escaping the cage by climbing over the top and both feet MUST tough the floor!"


"Bottoms Up" by Nickelback plays to a chorus of boos from the Chicago crowd. Homeless Jimmy makes his entrance to the stage.


Ring Announcer: "Introducing first.... from the streets.... weighing in at 2 hundred 55 pounds... HOMELEEEEEESSS JIMMMMMMMYYYYYY!"


Jimmy makes his way toward the ring while swinging his trusty barbed wire covered baseball bat and arguing with the crowd.


Ring Announcer: "And already in the ring.... his opponent... X-L-D-I-G.... and a bunch of random letters that don't make any SEEEENNNNNSEEE!"


The ring announcer just points.


SS: "I think his name frustrated the ring announcer!"

LW: "I think you are a bright, bright man!"

SS: "The outside official has locked both competitors and the other referee inside the cage, the bell has rung, so this match is officially underway!"


Homeless Jimmy makes his move using his strengths of quick bursts of energy in the start of the match. He sends XLDIG into the steel with a strong Irish whip. XLDIG’s head bounces off the cold hard steel and he drops to the ring floor. Jimmy see’s this and turns his back to XLDIG to start climbing the cage.


SS: "Homeless Jimmy wasting little time here!"

LW: "Way too early in my opinion, but you got to take your shots early and often!"


XLDIG is not down for long. Jimmy, not even able to get above the middle rope before XLDIG reaches him. A forearm to the back is what Jimmy is feeling as his body is pressed up against the cage now. XLDIG grabs Jimmy’s shoulder and spins him around. XLDIG sends Jimmy running toward the ropes.




REBOUND!




Jimmy is able to bounce off the ropes and begin running back towards XLDIG though, and XLDIG leaves out his arm for a short arm clothesline.




DUCKED!




Jimmy ducks the arm and bounces off the other ropes running back at XLDIG again this time Jimmy runs straight at him going for a headbutt….




DODGED!




XLDIG leaps over Jimmy who is still running but now getting tired. XLDIG is ready for him this time as he hooks arms with Jimmy and tosses him up into the air. A beautiful arm drag nearly rips Homeless Jimmy’s arm off. XLDIG now sees the barbed wire wrapped baseball bat and starts to make his way towards it.

Jimmy rolls to his stomach getting up to his forearms and knees to take a short break and get some air. XLDIG bends down and grabs the barbed wired baseball bat. He rises it into the air and gets a shout of mixed reactions from the fans who are about to witness a gruesome bloody match.


SS: "What the hell is he going to do with that bat!?"

LW: "Probably hit Homeless Jimmy with it! Just a guess!"


Jimmy is still out of breath from all the running but he can hear the crowd and he quickly gets out of the way as XLDIG swings the bat at where Jimmy’s head was. The barb wire sticks into the mat and XLDIG is unable to pull the baseball bat back up. He shrugs his shoulders not caring and moves towards Jimmy.

Jimmy, making his way back to his feet now surprises XLDIG with a punch to the mid-section. Jimmy with another shot this time to the face of XLDIG. XLDIG begins to fire back, the two are going shot for shot and neither looks like they want to give up. Jimmy gets hit in the face, shakes it off and fires his hands back at XLDIG! Now XLDIG, getting hit in the face his head flies back but comes around and he is able to get a punch onto the homeless man in front of him.

A kick to the mid-section of XLDIG is what finally breaks up this battle, Homeless Jimmy wraps his arm around the neck of XLDIG and begins to walk behind him. Jimmy looks to both sides then drops to his hands and knees. A vicious back breaker sends XLDIG to the mat and Jimmy is slow to get up.


SS: "What a brawl so far!"

LW: "Neither man has given an inch! Although, I'm sure they could probably use an inch or two...... or three."


Jimmy, finally to his feet sees that his precious barbed wired baseball bat is stuck in the ring so he walks over and with all his homeless might he rips the bat out from the ring mat, somewhat tearing the ring mat up. Jimmy is very angry now that he realizes that XLDIG tried to use his own bat against him. He walks over to XLDIG who is using the cage and ropes to help himself to his feet. Once he finally gets to his feet he turns and Jimmy swings....




WACK!




The barbed wire bat hits XLDIG directly in the face and he falls to the ground beginning to leak blood from his forehead instantly.


SS: "He's busted open!"

LW: "Unknown Soldier should be here for this!"


Jimmy capitalizes on this instant and he begins to climb the cage.


SS: "Homeless Jimmy! Can he get there!?"

LW: "Sure he can! The question is, WILL he?"











Jimmy gets to the half-way point!











He gets his hands on the top of the cage!













BUT NOW XLDIG IS GETTING UP!













Jimmy is straddling the top of the cage and XLDIG is holding on to Jimmy’s boot that is inside of the cage!


SS: "A STRUGGLE! JIMMY FOR THE WIN! XL BUNCH OF MEANINGLESS LETTERS TO NOT LOSE!"

LW: "Just dive off Jimmy!"






Jimmy tries to kick XLDIG off of him but the grip is simply too strong to break. XLDIG begins to literally climb up Homeless Jimmy’s leg! Jimmy is now shouting in pain as he has a grown being of an unknown weight, height, and even unknown gender climbing up his leg. Jimmy is forced to pull his other leg back in and jump back to the ring. Both men go crashing to the mat.


SS: "Both of these individuals are laid out! They gotta be unconscious!"

LW: "What a battle thus far!"


XLDIG is now the first to stand up. He looks down to his bloody hands that were covering his forehead and he knows that he won’t be able to climb the cage, he picks up the bat that he had been smacked in the head with and beings to beat on the cage door calling for a referee to open the door.


SS: "The referee! Unlocking the door!"








The cage is unlocked! XLDIG drops the barbed wire bat to the mat! XLDIG looks back towards Jimmy and proceeds to walk through the door!





SS: "A very bizarre pairing, but XLDIGJYTRWWWQ is your winner tonight!"

LW: "Bizarre indeed Steve!"

SS: "The newest member or members of the roster are announced as Madness rolls on LIVE!"


Madness cuts to commercial.

---

The arena lights fade low as the X-TRON flashes to life. Lime green letters fill up the screen in random patterns for roughly 30 seconds before disappearing.

















On the screen, a single phrase:


Riot on corn, man!










SS: "Riot on corn, man!? What the hell does that mean!?"

LW: "Well, IF the first announcement was based on numerology then maybe this one is an anagram!?"










The phrase begins shuffling its' letters around, then disappears.









Moments later, the third name is revealed:


MARTIN O'CONNOR


SS: "Martin O'Connor! Along with Agony and JC Styles are the first three announced members of the Madness roster!"

LW: "Three members so far! Paul said its not a large roster. Just how many more are there!?"

SS: "Only he knows, Liz! Folks, a quick timeout, but when we come back here on Madness, we had back to the ring!"

---

Ring Announcer: "The following contest is a tag team match, scheduled for one fall!"

Benjamin Crane & Agony - vs - Crimson Cobra & Martin O'Connor Standard Tag Team Match

"Kryptonite" by Three Doors Down plays and the crowd comes to life.


Ring Announcer: "Introducing first, from Louisville, Kentucky... weighing in at 2 hundred 15 pounds.... The Monolith... Benjamiiiiiiinnn CRAAAAANNEEEE!"


Crane comes out and looks the crowd over all the way to the ring. He walks up the steps, climbs in, throws off his hood and raises both arms in the air as the music fades.

"The Red" by Chevelle plays in the arena.


Ring Announcer: "His partner.... weighing in at 2 hundred 30 pounds.... AAAAAAGONYYYYYYY!"


Agony takes his time coming to the ring, seemingly eyeing up his own partner.

The sound of Olympic trumpets can be heard.


Ring Announcer: "Their opponents... first from St. Paul, Minnesota.... weighing in at 2 hundred 49 Pounds..... Martin... OOOOOOOOOOOO COOONNNNNORRRRRRRRR!"


Walking to the stage he stops at the top of the ramp and flexes his muscles, sending red white and blue fireworks to explode behind him. Old Glory unravels behind him. He then continues toward the ring.

"The Sound of Truth" by As I Lay Dying plays throughout the arena.


Ring Announcer: "And his partner.... from Aurora, Colorado... weighing 1 hundred 85 Pounds.... CRRRIIMSOONNN COOOOOOOBRAAAAAA!"


The lights in the arena take a deep red color as a lighting strike is herd over the pa system. Crimson Cobra breaks the silence of the audience as he emerges from the black curtain hiding the backstage from the inner arena. Cobra is making his way down the entrance ramp and holding his hands out to the adoring fans who he takes such pride in having. The vocals pick up in the song and Cobra starts to bounce around the steel steps leading up to the ring, as if he were a boxer or MMA fighter. A slight smile approaches his mouth and he runs up the stairs and along the apron of the ring stopping in the middle to look out to all of the screaming and cheering fans. Cobra takes a deep breath and closes his eyes lifting his head and a smile crossing his face. His chest puffs out from the deep breath and he sits there for a moment to embrace the feeling before he lifts his leg and darts into the ring. He approaches one of the four corners and jumps up showing his athleticism off already as he barley touches the top rope with his hands and lands with his feet on the top rope. It takes a slight second for him to maintain his balance then he pops up and rises his arms almost in a Randy Orton like style, yet slightly less cocky. He jumps down and starts to bounce like a fighter once more.


SS: "All four men are in the ring and ready for battle!"

LW: "What is it with XWF referees going over the rules? They KNOW the rules! If they break the rules they do it on purpose!"

SS: "Ladies and gentlemen the arena lights have once again gone out!"

LW: "You are a fucking genius! I'm sure no one can see the lights have gone out! Idiot!"

---

The X-TRON flashes to life. Lime green letters fill up the screen in random patterns for roughly 30 seconds before disappearing.

















On the screen, a single phrase:


My candid loser!










SS: "My candid loser!?"

LW: "It's obviously another anagram!"










The phrase begins shuffling its' letters around, then disappears.









Moments later, the fourth name is revealed:


CRIMSON DEADLY


SS: "The lights have come back on here and its official! Crimson Deadly joins Martin O' Connor, Agony and JC Styles as the fourth of an untold number of official Madness roster members!"

LW: "This roster is really beginning to take shape!"

SS: "Let's send it to the ring!"


Crimson Cobra stares at the X-Tron screen where his tag team partners name appears. He is distracted as both Agony and Crane begin double teaming O'Connor! Cobra returns his attention to the action in the ring. He runs over and shoves both Crane and Agony off of his partner for tonight! Crane, Agony and Cobra all stare at each other.

Suddenly, and seemingly out of nowhere, Cobra and Agony start attacking Benjamin Crane! Together, they beat him down mercilessly! O'Connor still down!


SS: "What the hell is going on here!?"

LW: "Competitors on opposite sides working together!?"


Agony lifts O'Connor to his feet.




FRACTURE!




Agony lands the wrist clutch exploder suplex with authority!




He lifts Crane....




ANOTHER FRACTURE!




Cobra to the top!



SS: "What's he gonna do here!?"

LW: "Agony! He's laying Crane and O'Connor side by side!"

SS: "THERE GOES COBRA! RED FANG!!!!!"

LW: "HE NAILED IT ON BOTH MEN!"

SS: "Both Agony and Cobra cover BOTH Crane and O'Connor!"

LW: "Count it ref!"

SS: "I don't think he knows if he should!"


"COUNT..... the FUCKING.... PINFALL!"


The referee looks toward the stage and sees the boss, Paul Heyman. The ref hits the mat.


SS: "He makes the count! ONE...










"TWO...










"THREE! This one is over!"

LW: "But, who are the winners?"


PH: "Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman! It is my duty to announce tonights tag team match winners.... AGONY..... and CRIMSON COBRA!

"Why? Because I can! That's why!"


Paul Heyman exits the arena area.

---

SS: "Well, these four men are making their way toward the back, O'Connor and Crane with help. I'm not really sure what to make of this!"

LW: "I think its obvious, Benjamin Crane and Martin O'Connor must have pissed off the boss!"

SS: "Folks! Hold up! I was about to send us to a commercial break, but the arena has fallen dark yet again, here!"

LW: "It must be time for another name!"


The X-TRON flashes to life. Lime green letters fill up the screen in random patterns for roughly 30 seconds before disappearing.

















On the screen, a single phrase:


A rare luau, son!










SS: "A rare luau, son!?"

LW: "These anagrams make my brain hurt!"










The phrase begins shuffling its' letters around, then disappears.









Moments later, the fifth name is revealed:


URSULA AREANO


Madness fades to commercial.

---

SS: "Welcome back here on Madness folks, just before the break it was revealed that, joining the likes of Agony... Martin O'Connor... JC Styles... and Crimson Deadly is none other than..."

LW: "Ursula Areano! GIRL POWER!"

SS: "Did that excite you?"

LW: "A little. I didn't piss my pants though."

SS: "Lets send it over to our ring announcer to start this next match!"

LW: "Oh man! The lights are out yet again!"


The fans quiet down and look toward the X-TRON which lights up. Binary code fills up the X-TRON. One by one the numbers disappear rapidly leaving the X-Tron blank again.


On the screen of the X-TRON:


166

















The 166 disappears into the background.










On the screen of the X-TRON:


96+70=166

















The 96+70=166 fades into the background.










On the screen of the X-TRON:

If Ursula Wins, She Gets a Shot at European Title Ursula Areano - vs - Alex Shawn Xtreme Rules

SS: "So Homeless Jimmy joins the likes of Ursula, O'Connor, Agony, Crimson Deadly and JC Styles as an official member of the Monday Night Madness roster!"

LW: "Six names released so far! Are there more?"

SS: "I'm willing to bet there are more! Let's send it over!"


Ring Announcer: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall.... it is an Xtreme... RULLLES match!"


"Kill the Sound" by Celldweller plays through the arena.


Ring Announcer: "Introducing first, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania... weighing in at 2 hundred 35 pounds.... Alex... SHAWWWWNNNN!"


Alex Shawn runs out to the stage and goes to one knee, swipes arms, stands up and starts speed walking while touching fans hands. Alex slides into ring and jumps on the front right turnbuckle and does a backflip. While in mid air, pyro shoots from the post. Alex stares toward the entrance way, awaiting his opponent.

"Weight of the World" by Evanescence plays.


Ring Announcer: "And his opponent.... from Buenos Aires, Aregentina.... Ursula.... ARRRREANNNNNOOOOOO!"


Ursula comes out through the curtains. When she gets to the ramp, she is showered in gold pyro. Soon after, she walks down the ramp confidently. With her hips moving back and forth, she is swinging her arms. She then gets on the apron and into the ring. After that she walks over to the ropes on the right side and stands on the first rope. She then bends over and looks at the fans. With a smile on her face. She then gets off the ropes and walks to one side of the ring and waits for the match to start.


SS: "A lot rides on this match for these two! Alex Shawn doesn't have to win, but he was told by Paul Heyman last week that he'd be given an opportunity this week! If he's going to lose, he better look damn good doing it!"

LW: "Ursula returned last week and attacked the European Champion Jeff Hardy! She demanded a title match and THIS is what Paul Heyman gives to her! In order for her to challenge Jeff Hardy for the title, she MUST win here tonight!"

SS: "The bell has rung and this match is officially underway!"


Both competitors have entered the ring and it looks as though Alex has brought a kendo stick with him to this xtreme rules match up! Right away Ursula sprints in going for a spear, but Alex is able to side step and gets right out of the way sending Ursula up into the metal ring post.


SS: "Oh man! An early mistake from Ursula!"

LW: "She's been gone a little while now, perhaps there is some ring rust!"


Alex laughs at the attempt then....









CRACK!







He brings down a loud smack with the kendo stick. Alex holds the stick high in the air with both hands then sends it down onto Ursula’s bare lower back once again!


SS: "She's a tough woman, but tat has GOT to hurt like hell!"

LW: "She can go toe to toe with toughest! She'll be fine, Steve!"


Ursula is screaming in pain but she is able to roll out of the ring and get away from the attack. She flips up the ring apron and begins looking for a weapon of her own. She starts to disappear under the ring from how deep in she is going.


SS: "Where the hell is she going!?"


SURPRISE!








Ursula is out from under the ring but on the other side and has just jumped into the air and hit a flying tornado DDT on Alex! The kendo stick goes flying out of his hand and she kicks it out of the ring.


SS: "Hook of the leg!



"One....





"Not nearly enough damage yet as Alex Shawn kicks out after a count of only one!"


Ursula still on the attack begins to lock up a sharpshooter!


SS: "SHARPSHOOTER! HERE IT COMES!"


Alex is able to use his own leg positioning to kick Ursula away and sends her to the ropes.


LW: "Alex Shawn is able to kick his way out of trouble!"


Alex pops up and






SPEAR!




Sends him right back down to the mat! Ursula connects with this spear but quickly rolls off of Alex and holds her shoulder as it still hurts from the contact with the corner.


SS: "Ursula, obviously favoring that shoulder she injured early on in this contest!"


Ursula gets to her feet and gets to the outside of the ring. She stays on the apron and makes her way to the corner. Ursula begins to climb up and she makes it all the way to the top rope.


SS: "To the top rope she goes!"

LW: "Alex is back to his feet though!"


Ursula JUMPS!






She’s going for the Huston Hangover!












CAUGHT!


SD: "Would you look at the strength of Alex Shawn!?"

LW: "I can' believe he caught her in mid air!"


Alex holds Ursula in the suplex position and drops her flat on her back. A sharp pain runs through her spine. She springs up to her side and holds her back in pain.


SS: "Alex Shawn, going for the cover here!


"One!














"Two!














"Kickout by Ursula!"

LW: "Come on Ursula! Get back into this one, sister!"


Alex gets up to his knees angry with the ref but not arguing showing the good guy that everyone in the arena is cheering for. Alex gets up and pulls Ursula to her feet with him. He grabs his own arm after wrapping it around the head of Ursula they both spin and it looks like Alex is going for a neck breaker here.


Alex pauses for a moment to keep the intensity high!





Was it a mistake?!









Ursula is able to spin out and is holding the arm of Alex in a very twisted position, bending Alex at will. Ursula drops to her knees in front of Alex and flips him over her shoulder, and almost instantaneously she sends both her legs over Alex’s body and locks up the arm bar!


SS: "WHAT A REVERSAL FROM AREANO!"

LW: "GET IT GIRL!"






The arm is bending! Alex could be getting free!







Ursula’s feet are squeezing tight! Alex’s face is showing a lot of pain!













Alex starts to reach out for the ropes!












HOW LUCKY! Alex’s reach is long enough to grab the ropes and the referee is forced to break the lock!
1!!!!!!!!!

Ursula needs to let go but it’s almost as if she is in her own world with this submission locked in.

2!!!!!!!!!

Alex Shawn is shouting at the referee to get her off of him!

3!!!!!!!!!

4!!!!!!!!!!

5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ref signals for the bell, but no sound is emitted!


SS: "The referee forgot there is no disqualification!"

LW: "We need better referees!"


She begins to lose her grip on the larger, very sweaty man and rather then having the hold broken, she lets go of the lock.

This gives Alex time to hop out of the ring and stand on his feet. He has time to recouperate and get his breath back. Bending his arm and extending it multiple times to see if it will feel any better after being nearly hyperextended!

Alex rolls back into the ring and pops up to his feet quickly, he and Ursula lock up and fight for positioning. Alex begins to get the upper hand and starts to get Ursula down to her knees. She breaks the lock of hands and sends a nice low-blow right up Alex’s way.


SS: "LOW BLOW!"

LW: "You jealous?"


Alex drops to both knees hands over his crotch to protect from any further damage. Ursula smiles at the attack and gets up off of her knees. Alex is in perfect position still down on his knees. Ursula runs and bounces off of the ropes, as she approaches Alex she steps on the side of his body and...








THE SHINING WIZARD.....





Connects with tremendous force. Alex has been sent to the canvas of the ring. Ursula slowly makes her way back to her feet and lifts Alex by his hair forcing him up.







But not what she was expecting, Alex Shawn is able to lift Ursula up into the air setting up the perfect position for his finishing maneuver The Golden Bomb!





Ursula hangs in the air kicking attempting to escape from what would be a deadly maneuver...





She wiggles free and lands on her feet behind Alex Shawn....


SS: "Oh no! This could be a rookie mistake from Alex Shawn!"


Alex Shawn turns to face Ursula...















SMACK!














SS: "There it is!"

LW: "Buenos Aires Superkick!"

SS: "THE COVER! CAN SHE DO IT!?


"ONE!



















"TWO!




















"THREE! SHE GOT HIM!"




SS: "Ursula Areano is your winner folks! A great contest, back and forth!"

LW: "Well, Alex Shawn looked impressive!"

SS: "It is official, Ursula Areano WILL compete next week here on Madness for the European Championship!"

LW: "Beware! Neil Capra, Jeff Hardy, this chick can kick! Ask Alex Shawn!"

SS: "Oh God DAMN IT!"

LW: "Don't be alarmed folks! Steve just might be afraid of the dark!"

SS: "I am NOT!"

LW: "What will it be this time? Numerology or an anagram!?"

---

The X-TRON flashes to life. Lime green letters fill up the screen in random patterns for roughly 30 seconds before disappearing.

















On the screen, a single phrase:


I ram corncobs!










SS: "I ram corncobs!?"

LW: "Just as I suspected! I'd ask where, but I probably would regret it!"










The phrase begins shuffling its' letters around, then disappears.









Moments later, the seventh name is revealed:


CRIMSON COBRA


Madness fades to commercial.

---

"Click, Click, Boom" by Saliva erupts from the speakers, the fans let out an almighty roar as Crimson Deadly emerges on top of the stage following the anagram announcement that his partner, Crimson Cobra, is now under a Monday Night Madness contract! He thrusts out his arms on the stage as fireworks explode from both sides of the stage. Crimson Deadly approaches the ring calmly as Mr. Mitchell also emerges from backstage, walking about 10 feet behind Crimson. He slides in the ring as Mitch begins climbing the ring steps and enters the ring. The Minions Master receives a microphone from ringside and returns to the center of the ring. The crowd is still roaring with pleasure.


Crimson Deadly: "Well, well, well... Looks like business just picked up on Monday Nights!"


The crowd erupt in cheers all over again, Crimson stands in the ring and soaks up all of the love from this Chicago crowd. He waits for the cheering to calm down again before speaking.


Crimson Deadly: "You may have seen me on Warfare and last Saturday on Shove-It. Next week you're going to see me right here, in this very ring, smashing a barbed wire bat into some poor bastards head!

"The only thing on my mind right now is my rise to the top of this roster and you better believe whoever the European Champion is when I'm through is gonna see nothing but stars!"


An even bigger roar from this capacity crowd!


SS: "WOW! Listen to these fans! They love him!"

LW: "Oh, no doubt! Crimson Deadly moving over to Madness is HUGE!"


Crimson Deadly: "Here's a message to anyone who thinks they're big enough - Come down to this ring right now and I'll show every single one of these fans exactly why Crimson Deadly on Madness is the worst thing possible for any of you! Who's it gonna be!?"


Crimson Deadly stands silent in the ring, Mr. Mitchell is nodding in acceptance to this speech and says something to Crimson Deadly, which causes a wide grin to form across his face. The X-tron remains motionless and the speakers stay still. Crimson Deadly now breaks out into an all out laugh.


Crimson Deadly: "Hahahaha! Exactly as I thought!

"Listen, if anyone of you think you're a badass then come find me, my only warning to you is; anybody who gets in my way will certainly find that The Minions Master is no fucking push over. I will mow you all down like insignificant blades of grass one by one as you step in front of me... The blades are in motion, I'm coming... Dare to step in my way?"


Yet again, nothing happens.


Crimson Deadly: "Remember! The three key ingredients for domination is my fist, your faces and this very squared circle I'm standing in! Don't like it? Tough shit! 'Cause I'm The Minions Master!

"AND BOOOY HAVE I GOT A FUCKING TREAT FOR YOU!"


Crimson Deadly drops the microphone as 'Click Click Boom' once again shakes the arena, Crimson Deadly and Mr. Mitchell hastily exit the ring and begin walking back up the ramp, Mr. Mitchell walks ahead of The Minions Master as he shakes the hands of various fans and gives a few others high fives. Mitch disappears behind the curtain but Deadly remains on the stage, his thrusts his arms outwards once again and roars at the top of his voice.

Suddenly, his music cuts out! Crimson Deadly looks around, getting furious that someone or something ruined his moment.


"BOOOY HAVE I GO A FUCKIN' TREAT FOR YOU!"


Crimson Deadly turns around to face the entrance way as Paul Heyman emerges from the back.


PH: "Crimson Deadly ladies and gentlemen! Isn't he fun? You see, I do have a treat for you. Right here, next week, you WILL indeed have a match! Crimson Deadly, you will go one on one, with.....


"hmmmm.....




"Who can I make you face that will give us the best bang for the buck?




"Ohhh, I know! Your opponent next week will be......





































"Wait for it....
























"CRIMSON COBRA!"


Crimson Deadly is literally beside himself with anger! He never imagined Heyman would make him face his own tag team partner!


PH: "You might ask me why. Why? Simply because....








"I can...."


Paul Heyman walks back through the entrance way. Crimson Deadly is still pissed off and pushes the camera out of his way as he stomps away.

Madness fades to commercial.

SS: "We're back here on Madness and these roster revelations are getting more and more frequent!"

LW: "The lights are out again so you know what that means!"

SS: "Another roster member!"

LW: "Well that and a little more piss running down your leg!"


The fans quiet down and look toward the X-TRON which lights up. Paul Heyman quietly makes his exit. Binary code fills up the X-TRON. One by one the numbers disappear rapidly leaving the X-Tron blank again.


On the screen of the X-TRON:


206

















The 206 disappears into the background.

Underneath that sequence:

SS: "A double reveal this time!"

LW: "Alex Shawn and JP Corino were just added to the ever growing list of Madness roster members!"

SS: "Before we leave the air tonight we'll give you the complete list, but its time now to head to the ring for tonights main event!"

MAIN EVENT XWF European Championship "The Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy - vs - Neil Capra Last Man Standing Match

"Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" by Metallica plays as the lights flicker on and off. Neil Capra makes his way to the ring, with Neil shouting obscenities at the crowd. Neil enters the ring, and turn to the entrance ramp to face Neil's opponent.

"Bullet With Butterfly Wings" by The Smashing Pumpkins plays as Jeff Hardy makes his way toward the ring.


SS: "Both these men are about ready for action!"

LW: "Both of these men need to be focused on each other and not on Ursula Areano next week!"

SS: "We send it over to our ring announcer, for the introductions!"


Ring Announcer: "Ladies and gentlemen it is time now for YOUR main event! This contest is a LAST.... MAN.... STANDING MAAATCH! It is for, the XWF, EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP! Introducing first at this time, the man to my left, the challenger... From Detroit Michigan, weighing in at 2 hundred 1 pounds.... NEIL... CAAAAAPRAAAA!

"His opponent... from Cameron, North Carolina weighing in at 2 hundred 21 pounds..... he IS... the XWF... European Champion...... JEFFFFFF HARRRRRRRDYYYYYY!"


SS: "These two men are set for a war!"

LW: "It will be nothing short of a war! Two men so much alike!"

SS: "The bell has rung and this Madness main event is officially under way!"


Capra and Hardy circle each other after the bell, sizing each other up. A collar elbow tie up ensues and Hardy has the slight leverage advantage backing Capra into the corner. The referee asks for a clean break in the corner, even though he can’t do much about it. Both men oblige though and slowly break the stalemate in the corner. Hardy backs away slowly as both men raise their arms.








SLAP!









Capra slaps Hardy in the face, turning him around as a result! Capra leaps into the air and jumps on to Hardys back catching him in an air tight sleeper hold!


SS: “Capra has that sleeper locked in tight! Can he knock out the Champion?”

LW: “I don’t know, Steve! It seems awful early!”

SS: “The champ is fading! Fast! Down to one knee!”

LW: “Neil Capra has him on the mat, on his side!”

SS: “The challenger, Neil Capra, releases the hold and instructs the referee to count!”

LW: “I think he released it way too early!”

SS: “You’re right! Jeff Hardy already to one knee as the referee’s count reaches 3!”


Capra doesn’t waste any time. He starts immediately delivering boot after boot to the champion as he tries to get off the mat. Finally, Capra relents at the request of the referee. Hardy struggles to his feet , and Capra moves in again nailing him with rights and lefts to the midsection and head finally backing Hardy into the corner. A few more stiff shots, then Capra lifts Hardy to the top rope. Neil follows him up and begins lifting for a superplex from the top rope…








BLOCKED!






Hardy grabs a hold of the top turnbuckle and….

Hardy rebounds quickly though, and is back to his feet. He lifts Capra to his feet and sends him head first into the ringpost. Capra falls to the floor and Hardy lifts him up again.

Wrapping Capra in a kind of a bear hug, Hardy drives him rib first into the steel fan barricades at ringside! Hardy digs under the ring himself and finds a steel chair! He holds it high into the air and the fans cheer him on. He taps the chair on the floor a couple times and lines up to hit Capra who is nearly back to his feet.




Hardy charges…







SWING…








CRACK!





Capra ducks at the last possible second and the chair collides with the barricade sending a shockwave of pain through the body of Jeff Hardy. Capra spins Hardy around and kicks him in the midsection and quickly follows up with a snap DDT on the floor!

He digs under the ring and pulls out a long, narrow cardboard box. He dumps its contents onto the table revealing…













Florescent light tubes!







He lines them up neatly along the length of the table and climbs onto the ring apron. Hardy is to his feet and staggering toward Capra. Neil catches him…

The X-TRON lights up again. Binary code filled with both letters and numbers for the screen this time, again in random patterns. Quickly and randomly, the letters and numbers fall away a few at a time leaving the screen blank.


On the screen of the X-TRON:


A clear pin!


Underneath the phrase:


110

















The phrase stays, but the number fades out.










On the screen of the X-TRON underneath the phrase:


27+83=110

















Again, the phrase stays, but the number sequence fades out.










Under the phrase, again another numeric sequence:


10+5+6+6=27.… 8+1+18+4+25=56

















The mathematical symbols and the sums disappear only leaving the numbers.









On the screen:


A clean pin!


Under the phrase:


10 5 6 6.… 8 1 18 4 25

















The letters in the phrase begin to scramble as some of the numbers from the numeric sequence turn into letters.










On the screen , below the scrambling letters:


10 E 6 F… 8 A 18 D 25

















Finally, the letters stop scrambling and form a name just as the final numbers fade out and the corresponding letters come forth, revealing the final two names.


















NEIL CAPRA


Underneath the first name:


JEFF HARDY

---

SS: “The final two names have been revealed as Jeff Hardy and Neil Capra!”


The lights fade on and the camera is zoomed and focused on Jeff Hardy as he begins to resume his victory celebration. He turns around right into a Buenos Aires Superkick from Ursula Areano! She picks up the belt and stands over the downed champion!


SS: “Where the hell did she come from?”

LW: “She must have snuck in after the lights went out!”

SS: “Could we be looking at our new Champion!? Find out NEXT WEEK on MONDAY NIGHT MADNESS!”
