Warfare returns to a huge ovation!!

Swagmire saunters down the ring, and picks up a microphone on his way to the ring, his normal dance is replaced with a determined walk. In the ring he begins to speak in a very calm and dominate voice, one he has not used since his days as a cop.

"For far too long has the NWO been a blight on the XWF, they took control less than a month ago, assaulted both Theo and Senator Samuels in their time, destroyed the Crown, ruined how many matches, and just run roughshod through this federation, as well as killed Eli James IV. Now, I opposed Eli James as owner, but I would never kill the man, not many would. I plan to put an end this with the help of some associates. Romulus Winters will be assisting me, Calamity Trigger, and Dusty Wyatt as well. If anyone would like to assist in putting an end the reign of these geriatric delinquents please come help us. This team is not made of friends, no we are allies who want to stop the NWO, that is all. Black Circle, Heyman Alliance, fragments of the Congregation and the Company, please come help us."

MAIN EVENT Enigma - vs - Romulus Heinrich Winters - vs - Azrael US Title Match Standard Triple Threat, One Fall

Silence falls. Regardless if people are screaming or not, their voices cease to accomplish sound. Then one by one the lights flicker and slowly fade out, until the entire arena is bathed in darkness. An amber hue soon begins to form in the middle of the entrance ramp. Dim at first and then glowing brighter and brighter until it's almost unbearable to look at. Momentarily, the sound of a crackle breaches the silence and Azrael suddenly appears. Seeming to step out, from within that burning phantom light. As he does both it's existence and the darkness, cease to exist. Sound returns and the fans are simply losing it; as Azrael smirks, casting his gaze around at the audience briefly before he takes off towards the ring. Leaping and sliding in through the bottom of the ropes, Azrael is quick to his feet. Bounding up with a grin, he then walks towards the turnbuckle, where he perches himself in a semi crouched position as he awaits his opponents.


The lights go out and purple fireworks explode along the edge of the entry way. Enigma will come out from the back and stand at the top of the entry way for a minute before methodically making his way down and into the ring where he stands opposite his opponent, Azrael.


The lights strobe white for a moment as the intro to "Seek and Destroy" by Primal Fear hits. Then everything goes black as the camera pans around the arena, searching for The Beast. A set of glowing red eyes is spotted and the camera focuses on him. The red strobe lights fill the arena, Romulus standing there with fangs bared and flanked by Miako. He quickly makes his way through the crowd with agility unbefitting a man his size. He steps over the guard rail and grabs Miako by the waist, hoisting her over effortlessly. He slides under the bottom rope and storms the corners, climbing each one in turn and throwing his arm in the air in a sign of power. He hops down and throws his arms out to the sides as flames go off behind him.

The match gets under way. Romulus looks at Enigma, who nods his head. The two men begin to close in on Azrael Erebus. Erebus sees what is about to happen and immediately flings a forearm at Enigma, but eventually the numbers game catches up to him. The two men team up on Azrael and have him in the corner unloading stomps and fists over and over again.

The referee tries to get them to stop but it's not working. Romulus then wisely turns and plants the champion with an elbow! He runs off the ropes and looks for the das boot early but Engima ducks it and then as Romulus turns he walks straight into a superkick by the current United States Champion.

Azrael is up now, he grabs Enigma from behind by the shoulders and plants him down on the mat between the legs of Erebus. Then he grabs the right leg and makes a cover by putting his legs on the champ's shoulders.

Kick out!


Romulus picks Azrael up from behind, he shows his strength by lifting him high above his head. He throws him head first into the turn buckle, and then runs off the ropes and takes him down with a deadly lariat. Romulus roars “I've got this.”

He then begins to line Enigma up, but Enigma is playing possom. He hits a hand to the mid-section and then follows it up with a spike DDT in the centre of the ring. Enigma knows that's not enough damage done. He unloads stomps all over the body of the Beast from Berlin. He picks up Romulus by the hair and pushes him against the ropes, but Romulus reverses it then ducks, he receives a punt to the shoulder for his troubles though. Then Enigma kicks him in the gut, over drive neck breaker!

Devastating. He's about to go for the pin but Azrael grabs him from behind.

Enigma counters though with an enzuigiri! To high effect. Azrael falls back into the ropes, Enigma runs at him, but Azrael grabs the champion by the throat...

Choke slam!!

So close!

Azrael lifts Romulus to his feet and whips him into the corner and then flies at him, splashing him into the corner. Azrael then climbs to the top turnbuckle but as he does so, Enigma shoves him from the top turnbuckle to the outside!

Erebus goes flying head first into the barricade! The crowd jeer at Enigma who raises one arm into the air as if to symbolise the beginning of the end.

Romulus gets to his feet but turns into a devastating flying forearm smash!!

Enigma screams, he stalks Romulus now...

Hits him with the Riddle!! (Spinebuster)

Meanwhile, Azrael remains down on the outside.

Enigma now, he tries to lock in the Great Mystery (Boston Crab with knee into the neck of the opponent).

Romulus some how manages to use his left leg to overpower Enigma and send him flying down to the mat to the outside. He gets to his feet only to see a furious Azrael Erebus staring right at him. Erebus throws him into the barricade. Romulus regains his energy in the centre of the ring.

Azrael continues the assault, he slings him into the steel steps and then cracks his head on the commentary table. He throws him once more head first into the barricade and then back into the ring. Romulus tries to go for a pin but Azrael immediately breaks it up and looks shocked and disgusted at Romulus.

“Don't you dare try to take credit for my work ever again.”

He picks up Romulus who struggles to fight back and then flings him across the ring with fall-a-way slam!

Azrael seems in total control now. He grabs Enigma by the head and throws him towards the turnbuckle, but Enigma reverses it and then unloads punches in the corner. Azrael switches it back and then unloads some cross body chops.

Romulus from behind though, German Suplex to Azrael!

He jumps at Enigma but Enigma ducks and sends him to the outside, and then climbs to the top rope! Flying clothesline to the outside by the United States Champion! Taking Romulus down!

Azrael gets up to see the two men on the outside slowly struggling to their feet. He waves his arms in the air and the crowd erupts into cheers as he runs off the ropes, then back off the other ropes, and then he flies over the top rope splashing onto both of the men on the outside!

The three men slowly crawl back into the ring. Romulus remains down but the other two square up to each other and the crowd erupts once again. Enigma just pushed Azrael. And he falls to the mat. He is clearly angered and slightly humiliated. He leaps to his feet and fleis at Enigma and unloads a flurry of closed fists to the face of Enigma.

Enigma turns him over and unloads some himself. Then he drops an elbow to the ribs, then the cover.

Kick out! Enigma picks him up and flings him out of the ring then turns to target Romulus.

SPEAR!

Romulus spears him to the ground immediately then runs off the ropes and leaps into the air. SPLAT. Romulus notices Azrael trying to climb back into the ring but he sprints across it and knees him in the skull sending him to the outside.

Then he turns to Enigma and picks him up, huge suplex!

Romulus now seems in charge, Azrael comes in but he receives a kick in the gut and is thrown shoulder first into the turnbuckle. He screams out in pain, Romulus lifts him up high and power bombs him into the turnbuckle!!Devastating maneuvre. Winters with the sunset pin...

Winner and NEW United States Champion: Azrael

Azrael wins it! And Enigma has lost his United States Championship without taking the pin. The cruelty of triple threat rules!

Azrael's music ends, and Enigma and Romulus make their way to the back.

Azrael celebrates in the centre of the ring but then a sudden outburst of jeers.

He turns to see Luca Arzegotti standing at the top of the ramp with a smirk on his face. The newest member of Warfare stands sarcastically clapping as Warfare comes to a close.

Congratulations Azrael.

The awesome banner was brought to you by Morbid Fuckin Angel.

"I appreciate a graceful loser Romulus. Keep working at it and perhaps more opportunities shall arise."
