The World Mourns With the United States of America
Our video feed opens up in a dark alley. The sound of wind can be heard blowing along through the night air. A light starts to emerge from the darkness and we see John Austin come into view.
Hello everyone, don't fear and don't regret, yours truly is not to far behind. After my second round loss at Night of Sacrifice, I had to do a lot of searching. Who is really worthy of being a champion here in XWF. Seeing now that I have this
John holds the now customized 24/7 briefcase into view and smiles proudly.
Now you can call me crazy, stupid, autistic but I hold the key to your career. Luca Arzegotti, my old friend. Last time we faced off, you got the better of me but that was then and this is now. You were in the same position I was and you capitalized on Sid Feder. Keep that European title close because this autistic asshole may be the next European Champion....
Tonight, the tag team titles are on the line and I will be watching very closely. Closer than you think. So everyone involved in the match tonight, keep your eyes open because you never know when Mr. two two six two four is coming....and if I do make my presence known tonight....I am not coming alone....
The year of Austin has begun and all of you that hold gold...consider this your warning
John walks off into the darkness as our video feeds goes to static......

PAUL HEYMAN: “I guess its time to deliver my surprise. Hunter Payne, let me be the first to welcome you back to Madness. Mr. Altieri, tough break kid.
“Earlier tonight, I announced that when Mr. Supernova defends his Television title against Mr. Radio, Shawn Steele would also be a part of that match. Here's what you don't know. Somebody who I've watched and enjoyed watching will also be a part of this match. Somebody that came to Madness tonight and put on one hell of a show!
“Vincent Altieri! You will also be a part of the Television title match! Oh and uhhhh, Hunter.... I saw what happened out here.... I'll be watching you...”
Hunter Payne is understandably pissed off. He turns around and is immediately drilled with the chair by Vincent Altieri as Madness fades to commercial.

Ara-Om Jessik & Arville La'Donis TLC Match
The bell rings as Duke and MacAlister hand their belts over to the official. The official secures them to the tether and the belts ascend toward the top of the arena. Duke and Griffin are caught off guard as Lang and Havok are on the attack.
Lang and Havok have Duke and MacAlister trapped in opposite corners. Havok on Duke. Lang on Griffin. The two Extremists look acroos the ring at each other and nod. They each perform an Irish whip on their opponents sending them running toward each other.
MacAlister rolls through Dukes legs and takes down Havok with a Konnan inspired rolling lariat as Duke floors Lang with a big boot to the face. The challengers retreat to the floor as the champions stand in the center of the ring.
JOEY STYLES: “And the Brotherhood, working as a cohesive unit shows why they are the champions!”
The Revolution retreats toward the corner as Duke and Griff exit the ring on different sides adjacent to the corner. They have the challengers cornered with nowhere to go. Duke and Griff close in and the Revolution sprints and dives back into the ring. Duke and Griff turn on a dime and do the same. The Revolution is there to meet them though as the champions are being stomped into the mat.
Griffin gets to a vertical base and is clotheslined over the top by Lang. Lang now joins Havok in his battle with Sebastian Duke. They mercilessly beat down the big man until he's lying on the mat. Lang charges toward the corner and tries for a Vader splash but Duke clutches him by the throat. Duke gets back to his feet and tries to lift Lang for a chokeslam but is nailed in the back by LJ Havok.
Griffin re-enters the ring with a chair and runs after Lang. Lang catches it out of the corner of his eye and ducks Griffins swing...
CRACK!
JOEY STYLES: “MacAlister just inadvertently hit his partner with the chair!”
Duke staggers backward and out of the ring as Griffin is pissed off at himself for his mistake. Lang, from behind with a lowblow and it doubles Griffin over. Havok grabs the chair from Griffin and smashes it across Griffins back.
Griffin hits the mat on his knees and Havok tosses the chair to Lang. Lang then smashes the chair against the back of MacAlisters head, sending him down face first to the mat. Havok and Lang now have a quick discussion and Lang heads to the outside while Havok pays his attention to Griffin MacAlister.
JOEY STYLES: “It looks like the tables have turned in the favor of the Extreme Revolution!”
Lang returns to the ring but not before sliding in a table. Havok whips Griffin into the corner. Havok follows him in and lifts him to the top rope. Lang meanwhile, sets up the table near the center of the ring. Havok attempts a superplex but its blocked by Griffin. Havok with another attempt, again its blocked.
Lang now finds himself on the ropes as well, trying to help his partner drive Griffin MacAlister through the table. They look like they're about ready to lift him up when...
SMACK!
Havok receives a stiff punch from Duke and falls off the turnbuckles and crashing through the table! Lang receives a stiff punch from Griffin and he falls off as well, but he lands on his feet. Griffin jumps down and charges toward Lang. Lang delivers a dropkick to Griffin and MacAlister falls out of the ring and down to the floor below.
Lang gets back up and takes a clothesline over the top rope from Duke. Duke now heads to the outside and grabs a ladder and slides into the ring. Duke enters the ring soon after and picks up the ladder. Havok begins to get up but receives a stabbing shot to the forehead from the ladder from Duke for his trouble. TROUBLE!
Havok falls to the mat and rolls out of the ring to the floor. Duke clears the table debris from the ring. He then sets up the ladder directly under the title belts and begins to climb. He doesn't get far though as Cam Lang re-enters the ring and has a firm grasp of Dukes leg.
Lang uses his athleticism to climb up on to Dukes back as he stands about five feet off the mat. Duke struggles but soon loses his grip and Lang delivers the backstabber to him as they hit the mat. Duke is down and out as Cam slowly gets back to his feet and begins to climb the ladder.
On the other side of the ring, MacAlister has re-entered and begins to climb the other side of the ladder with a chair in his hands. Cam reaches the top first and doesn't realize Griffin is just below him. Cam gets a couple of fingers on one of the tag belts but Griffin is there to stop him by jabbing the chair into Langs midsection. Griffin then shoves the chair up under Cams chin knocking him off balance and off the ladder! Lang falls down to the mat hard!
Griffin begins to reach, then tosses the chair and begins to reach again. He takes a step up the ladder and BANG!
JOEY STYLES: “LJ Havok! With a springboard dropkick to the ladder!”
The dropkick sends the ladder and Griffin MacAlister tipping over and down hard to the mat. Havok is slow to his feet but retrieves the ladder and resets it under the tag belts. Havok begins to climb. Duke is back to his fet and reaches through the ladder rungs and grabs Havok by the throat. Havok struggles against the strength of Sebastian Dukes grip, and Duke counters by yanking his arm back, effectively smashing Havoks face against the ladder. Duke then thrusts his arm forward sending Havok flying off the ladder and through the ropes and down to the floor.
Duke steps on the ladder but is stopped by a lowblow from Lang! Duke hits his knees immediately. Lang closes up the ladder and puts it around his own head and begins to spin like a helicopter propeller. Duke gets to his feet and ducks one of the spins. As Lang faces him again in mid-spin, Duke sends a big boot to the ladder causing it to smash up against Langs face. Lang falls back to the mat with the ladder still over his head and smashes the back of his head off the ladder.
JOEY STYLES: “Thats got to be considered a rookie mistake by Cam Lang! You can't make that kind of mistake against veterans like Duke and MacAlister! They'll make you pay every time!”
Duke picks up the chair from earlier and swings it down toward Cam Lang, crashing it against his body! He lifts it again but Havok is there and hanging on to the back of the chair. Duke spins around and wrestles it out of Havoks hand and... SPEAR!
Havok takes Duke down with the spear and slowly gets back to his feet. He revives his partner and removes the ladder from his head. Havok sets the ladder up. Lang is slow to get up. Duke is slow to get up. MacAlister is slow to get up.
Lang charges after Griffin... PISSED ON ARRIVAL! MacAlister hits the codebreaker and locks in the Hells Gate submission on Cam Lang! Havok runs after Duke!
SLAP!
Duke caught him!
CHOKESLAM!
JOEY STYLES: “What a counter by Havok!”
LJ Havok slips behind Duke and plants him with the Saving Grace in the middle of the ring. Lang passes out in the Hells Gate and Griffin shoves his lifeless body off of him. Havok begins to climb the ladder as Griffin gets to his feet.
Griffin begins climbing the other side. He two meet at the top of the ladder and a slugfest ensues. Havok. Griffin. Griffin. Havok. Havok. Griffin. Back and forth they go. Neither man gaining the clear advantage until Havok sends a thumb to MacAlisters eye, stunning him on top of the ladder.
Havok reaches up for the titles, but they are still just out of reach. He steps up one more rung and Griffin seizes the opportunity. Griffin leaps up and grabs Havok by his shoulders and delivers a codebreaker to him causing his chest to collide with the top of the ladder!
Havok bounces off the top of the ladder and falls to the mat below. Meanwhile, Griffin had landed on one of the lower rungs a few feet below the top and ascends toward the top once more. Just finger tips away. One more rung.
