*Darling Suites*
Fire has made her way back to the Darling Locker Room and is throwing tinsel all around the room with one hand while she untangles lights with the other hand...very multi-talented she is. She finally finishes with the tinsel and the lights and starts looking through the boxes for more decorations when the door slams open. Fire takes her head out of the box and looks towards the doorway where Alexander is standing. She quickly makes her way over toward Alex and starts throwing tinsel on him. Alex stands there and takes it for a moment until Fire has seemingly finished and he takes off his hoodie.
Fire: Hey you, good...
Alexander: Don't hey you me.
Fire: You're mad. Is it cause of the decorating?
Alexander: No it's not the decorating. Where do you get off fining Lexie for something that's necessary.
Fire: First, it's my job. A job you've told me I'm very good at. Second, why the hell do you have a problem with it when she didn't?
Alexander: Because you're still taking his side.
Fire: I thought it was never about sides with you?
Alexander: Well, maybe I was wrong Fire. I've tried to be the better man.
Fire: You've succeeded.
Alexander: But it's not enough anymore Fire. We...he and I...can not continue to both exist here and if you don't see that, I just don't know what I can do or say anymore about it.
Fire: I can't...you didn't...you're impossible Alex. I can't believe you would do this NOW. During Yule. I'll be back later to finish decorating.
Alexander: We're not done...
Fire: Yes we are.
Fire walks into her room and slams the door leaving Alex standing alone amongst the lights and tinsel and garland. He takes a deep breath before pulling the hood back over his head. Just as we're about to exit, we hear his cell phone ringing...

Chuckles the Clown is directing traffic in GM Selena's office. Firewoman, Alexander Darling, Alexis Darling, Spencer Darling, Ashley Davies, Lucky, are all seated on one side of the office. GM Selena is seated at her desk eying all of them as Moosehead Jack enters the office.
GMSa-T: Anyone who moves is fired. Have a seat Moose.
Moose smirks at Selena but sits in the lone chair on the other side of the room. Selena watches Moose sit, never taking her eyes off him as she stands up and walks to the front of her desk, before everyone in her office.
GMSa-T: Alrighty, I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. Well, bitter. Whatever. This whole Moose vs. the Darlings thing. I'm kinda tired of it. Sick of it really. So here's what's gonna happen from now on until I say otherwise.
Selena stares at Moose.
GMSa-T: You wanted me to act, so here it is. There is to be NO contact between Moosehead Jack or any members of the Darling family or their entourages. None. Zero. Also, Firewoman, your role as Commissioner no longer applies to Moose. I will personally make any decision that affects him. If ANY contact is made, the instigator will be fined a month's salary. Repeat offenses escalate in months' salaries. Any physical altercation at all? The instigator is suspended for a month. Any repeat offense and you will. Be. FIRED. Any questions?
Alexis raises her hand.
GMSa-T: Good. Now all of you get out of my office.

We cut to Jamie McAllister with a mic standing next to an upset Matt Folz.
JM: Matt, is there a reason that you've yet to comment on your losses the past two weeks?
MF: In this industry, especially in this company that has the best talent anywhere in the world, you're not going to win all the time. We all know that. And if I lose because someone out wrestles me on that night, I have no problems with that. It's when I lose due to stupidity like I did the past two weeks that I start to get pissed off.
JM: What do you mean?
MF: I went in the last two weeks paying too much respect to my opponents and I lost because of it. I went in looking at LD and Stank as what they WERE, instead of what they are now: Two guys who have their legacies secure in the history books for sure, but are now well past their primes and are better off running wrestling schools than competing with the New Guard. And I gave Lobo far more respect than he's earned or deserved.
JM: And this week you face Lobo in a singles match, any comment for him?
MF: Lobo, please don't take me lightly just because I'm the only one of the New Guard without a title. I am the very best pure wrestler in this company, not one of, THE Very best. When I have my head right, I can embarrass anyone that's unlucky enough to be across me in the ring. You are a very talented wrestler, and we're still interested in having you when you come to your senses and decide to join us, but you aren't at my level yet.
JM: Anything else you want to add?
MF: Yes, this is to Rick Scaia and any pussy anonymous message board poster who is saying "Look, Matt Folz is blowing yet another opportunity. This entire New Guard angle is a waste." FUCK YOU. Watch what I do in the ring Wednesday night. We're off to a little rockier start than we would like, but we are the New Guard, this is OUR time, and God have mercy on those who get in our way.
JM: Still trying to get that over huh?
MF (Shrugs): We need new nominees for catchphrase of the year. If "I'm a pretentious douchebag... and you're just not" gets nominated again, my head is going to explode.

*fade in to Chris Evans in the New Guard locker room*
Evans: Before I begin, I’d first like to say good luck to Captain Excellent in his match against Justin Sane this week. I taught you a lot of what I know, and I think you’ve got a great future ahead of you, man. You know, after you’re finished kicking the ass of the self-proclaimed Wizard of Odd, you and the rest of the Executioners should really join us.
And speaking of odd, the real odd man out here this week is gonna be you, AA. You’re a marked man, old-timer, and from your last promo, you’re living in the past, even more than I thought. And that’s a saying a lot since I didn’t think that you could get much worse. But then you bring in a cardboard cutout of Johnny Adreneline to try to relive your so-called “glory days?” My God, you’re pathetic. On one side, you’ve got me, the Intercontinental champion and a man who will stop at nothing to make sure that guys like you know whats good for you, and leave the business to the future stars like the New Guard and myself.
And then there’s Ricky Soaring Eagle, a man who...well, lets be honest here, he doesn’t really care about the prestige that comes with this title. He basically just wants it so that he can hurt more people, namely you. I know I can hold my own against a man who is basically a Moose clone. Same fucked-up past, same bloodlust and the same match result, namely me pinning his shoulders to the mat. But you, Alan? Heh, you don’t stand a chance against either of us, and once Ricky takes your chicken-shit ass out of the picture, the real wrestlers can get to work. Of course I’m gonna retain, there’s really no doubt about that one. Eagle’s not exactly the type that is known for having a cool head nor is he really built for wrestling long matches, and that’s basically where I’ve got him beat. He’ll take his sweet time ripping you to shreds, and beating you within an inch of your life, and then when he faces me, he’ll be too gassed to do anything to me.
And speaking of doubt, there’s also one other thing that I’ve noticed around here. There appears to be a skeptic in my own group. Yeah, I heard what you said, Martha. You think I can’t lead this group? That I’m basically non-existent? You know, I expected a lot of criticism over my movement, but from someone that close with one of my most trusted allies? Sure, I have been quiet this week, I’m not gonna try and justify my lack of promos. But we’re not gonna be able to bring the future to this business if we’re not all on the same page.
By ourselves, we’re the most talented wrestlers on this roster. On any given night, we can outwrestle and out-brawl anyone in the back. There is no questioning our talent. This buiness is all about the connections though. If you don’t have the connections, you have nothing. But together, remember this: We are the New Guard, the holders of every major title in this business. This is OUR time, and we’re gonna clean up this shithole.

We fade in to Firewoman’s office. She’s hard at work at her desk working on her commissioner duties, when there is a knock at the door.
Fire: Who the hell knocks here anymore? *calling to the door* Come in!
The door opens, and Psykle walks in. He seems a little sheepish as he approaches Fire’s desk.
Psykle: Hi. Um, do you have a minute?
Fire: If you’re here to start trouble, then no.
Psykle: No, that’s not it at all. Actually, it’s kinda the opposite.
Fire puts down her pen and looks up at Psykle, waiting for him to speak. Neither of them say anything for a bit. Finally, Psykle pulls out a copy of “The Rise and Fall of Trinity” and places it on Fire’s desk.
Fire: What’s this about?
Psykle: I watched it. Bought a copy at the merchandise stand, watched it in my locker room, just to make sure IQ had no way to filter it.
Fire: And…?
Psykle: And…well…um…I’m sorry.
Fire looks slightly surprised.
Psykle: Really, I didn’t know any of that, and well, IQ kind of was manipulating me, and wasn’t showing me the true things going on, but still, that’s not really an excuse, and well, I just needed to…
While Psykle has been talking, Fire has stood up, walked around her desk and walked right up to Psykle. Suddenly, she grabs him and gives him a big hug. Psykle looks apprehensive and uncomfortable with the hug, but accepts it. Fire breaks the hug, and picks up a candy cane from her desk.
Fire: Candy cane?
Psykle: Um, thanks?
Psykle takes the candy cane from Fire, and holds it awkwardly.
Psykle: Um, I don’t get it?
Fire: Get what?
Psykle: Why are you being so nice? The last time we saw each other, I nailed you with a cheap shot and took the DDT Iron Man Heavy Metal title from you.
Fire: You were doing what you felt was necessary. It was in the ring, so it was all OK with me. As far as being so nice, as you saw from the DVD, I know what it’s like to be controlled. You weren’t yourself. The fact that you have gone to the lengths you have to make things right, that in and of itself shows me the type of guy you are, and that you are honorable and respectable, and given all the other types we have around here, it’s about time we got someone like you.
Psykle gets a tear in his eye.
Psykle: Thanks. That means a lot.
Fire: It’s all true. Trust me, if it wasn’t, you wouldn’t still be here. I had plenty of opportunities to get rid of you as the commissioner.
Psykle: Still, to actually say that, after everything I’ve done, it really means something.
Fire: You’re welcome. Listen, can I offer you some advice?
Psykle: Of course.
Fire: Listen to Stevie Richards.
Psykle: What?
Fire: Look, I know he might be a little nuts, heck, after IQ revealed the truth, I did some digging and got some old FTR footage…
Psykle: Sheesh…
Fire: Yea, he was completely off his rocker. Anyway, he’s right though. You are trying too hard. You’re focusing on one aspect too much, and not letting your natural skills come out. You’ve got talent, use it.
Psykle thinks for a minute, and seems to realize that Fire is right.
Psykle: Thanks Fire. You’re right. I better go train up some more before Mayhem. Gotta get back my stride and let my natural instincts back in.
Psykle starts to head for the door.
Psykle: By the way, don’t think this squares me with Alex. He’s still due for payback from his little attack in the boiler room.
Fire: As long as you keep it in the ring, that’s fine.
Psykle: I haven’t attacked anyone backstage yet, have I?
Fire: Things change…
Psykle: That they do…that they do.
Psykle winks at Fire, then walks out the door as we fade to black.

The scene comes up in Ric's Sandwich Shop, and we see Stank and Justin Sane sitting at a table. Stank is enjoying a sandwich and drinking some coffee, and Justin appears to be engrossed in watching promos on OOWF TV. They just finish up showing the Firechild vignette when Justin turns to Stank.
Justin: Cool Underdawg is coming back.
Stank: Don't think that's who it was for.
Justin: Canadian Dragon?
Stank: nope.
Justin: Phil?
Stank: It's Firechild Justin, they said his name at the end.
Justin: Firewoman? But she hasn't left.
Stank: No, Firechild.
Justin: (nonchalantly) I've seen her naked boss, she's no child.
Stank: Well yeah I know she's not a child, but tha..........Wait, you've seen Firewoman naked. You know what, I don't want to know, regardless, it's Firechild, just trust me on that.
Justin: Sure thing Boss. Hey maybe you can help me with some advice.
Stank: What do you need.
Justin: I have a match against a newcomer this week, and I'm not sure how to prepare for someone I've never seen in the ring before.
Stank: Who do you got?
Justin: Captain Excellent.
Stank: .....
Justin: .....
Stank: .....
Justin: .....
Stank: It's Evans.
Justin: Huh?
Stank: Captain Excellent is Chris Evans.
Justin: No way, Evans doesn't wear a mask.
Stank: That's the point, It's Evans under a mask so he can cause problems without fines.
Justin: That just sounds silly. Look if you didn't want to help out boss, you could have just said so.
Stank: I'm not messing with you Justin. Captain Excellent is Chris Evans. It's a new guard trick.
Justin: (smiling) I'm old guard.
Stank: I'm aware of that Justin.
Justin: And Captain Excellent is an Executioner.
Stank: (rubbing his temples) He is also Chris Evans.
There is a lengthy pause.
Justin: I don't see it.
Stank just pulls out five dollars and hands it to Justin. Justin gleefully takes it.
Justin: Thanks Boss!
With that Justin hops up, grabs the DDT belt and heads off. Stank just shakes his head before going back to his sandwich.

Chris Evans finishes his interview. Kai walks into the shot.
Kai: The Kai liked what you had to say.
CE: Thank you.
Kai: The Kai was very moved. The Kai almost cried a bit.
CE: Uh...
Kai: The Kai also liked your work in Captain America.
CE: That's not me, that's the other Chris Evans.
Kai: You were also good in Fantastic Four. You should really combine the two. Make it Captain Flamer. It suits you.
CE: Captain Flamer? Dude, I'm not gay! And it's the other Chris Evans!
Kai: It doesn't matter which Chris Evans it is! That guy is a jabroni, always posing and preening.
CE: It's kind of what we do.
Kai: Don't make the Kai smack you, champ or not.
Aina comes into the shot to get between them.
Aina: Whoa, whoa, whoa. We're all on the same team here.
CE: Your bother's insane.
Aina: I'll deal with him.
Evans leaves as Kai and Aina stare each other down.
Kai: You interrupted the Kai's promo, bruddah.
Aina: Why are you picking a fight with Evans?
Kai: Because the Kai's opponent has said nothing. He just acted like Hulk Hogan, which is lame, uninspired, and seriously stupid, ripping off a wrestler like that.
Kai winks at the camera.
Aina: Davin hasn't said anything about me either.
Kai: Well Davin Moreland is a douche bag.
Aina: Yes. So?
Kai: So, the Kai thinks it's about TIME Aina mops the floor with his douche bag Patriot loving, Camry driving candy ass!
Aina: Noted. Got anything else for me?
Kai: Um, no, the Kai is good.
Aina: Nothing about sticking some random object up his candy ass sideways?
Kai: Well, no, now that you've ruined it for the Kai.
Aina: Good. Noelani and I are going out for dinner...
Kai: Will there be pie?
Aina: Maybe later.
Kai: Enjoy the crab pie.
Aina: Crab pie...what? Oh! Dammit Kai!
Kai: IF YA SMELLLLLLALALALOW. WHAT THE KAI. IS. SURFIN'

-->Sitting in a small town hockey rink, Williams and Scott are overlooking a higher level hockey game, as both men are big fans of the sport...
HW - Ahh the good old days. I used to play hockey you know, I was the team's enforcer. I set a single season record for penalty minutes and also for fights.
CC - Why did you give up hockey?
HW - Didnt have the talent for it. All I could do was fight and there really isnt room in the sport anymore for that kind of shit. Nobosy is going to spend money on a guy who wont produce points and just take penalties.....
CC - So how is your ankle coming along?
HW - A bit better. That figure four of his (Sparxxx) is damn intense. It felt like he twisted my damn ankle right off
CC - He is known for that you know, but you put up one hell of a fight. And I'm proud to be in your corner still man. You show great promise out there and you were rewarded with a title match. You will do big things in this company.
HW - *turns to look at the game, but turns back after a few seconds*...damn rope break rule
=======Light humor in somewhat OOC============
CC - Ha! Anyway, how long before you can compete?
HW - The doc says that I should be ready to go by next week. The pain is pretty much gone and he says the ankle is almost fully healed. I should be good for the next addition of MAYHEM.
CC - You realize they will probably make you start again from the bottom right....you didnt cut any promos with them for almost two months.
HW - I wish man, but I have been just drowning in my work. I bet you didnt know I am going to college
CC - I didnt, it must be tough balancing all of that.
HW - Yeah, hence why I havent been around. It really has become crunch time with the new department academic standards
CC - Those can be a bitch. When I went to college, I went through the same things.
==============End OOC light humor (lol)==============
HW - Look, I cant wait to get back in the action. Ive been keeping myself lean in the gym, ive been eating healthier and ive been working on a new finishing move
CC - Thats good man, glad to hear it
HW - One last thing man, before I go back to it, I want to know, are you still with me? I want to keep your wisdom and experience in my corner as long as possible and you are the perfect mentor in my eyes.
CC - Look man, I have been behind you from the beginning and I would be an idiot not to see it through. I am with you for the long haul bro.
-->The two men shake hands as the buzzer sounds in the background to end the current peiod of play in the hockey game....and this promo...

Firewoman is WALKING~! when she runs in to RabbitMask, who is also WALKING~! the same direction, so they are now WALKING~! together.
FW: Hey, uh....Usagi? Bunny? Rabbxt? I don't know what to call you.
RM: We've been friends a while. Rabbxt's fine.
FW: Awesome...you know, I was thinking, we should get the truck monkeys to find our old music!
RM: Yeah....
FW: Look, I'm sorry you're in this clusterfuck match. I know you deserve to be booked a little better.
RM: Eh, it's okay.
FW: So you don't mind extending our "One Night Only" a little more?
RM: Naw, it's like family time.
They get to the Darling Suites.
FW: Wanna come in?
RM: Sure.
They enter and it looks like Christmas exploded.
RM: Went a little overboard with the tinsel, did we?
FW: Dude, I never even THOUGHT of holidays before now. It's like a whole new lease on life thing. I can't wait until January.
RM: What's in January?
FW: Dunno! I barely knew Thanksgiving and Christmas were the huge deals they are. We never really celebrated them as a child and now...this is just awesome. It keeps getting better, so January's must be FABULOUS.
Rabbit looks like he wants to say something, then changes his mind.
RM: So...everyone's going to be on the same page for Mayhem right? I know you guys were arguing and--
FW: Dude, you should know by now. Once we step in the ring, it's one for all, all for one.
RM: I think our history might speak otherwise. But I just meant, if you guys aren't --
FW: We're totally on.
RM: And you....you're okay facing.......him?
FW: Who Moose? Fuck him.
RM: No, I meant....Him.
FW: You can say his name. Junichiro.
RM: Right...well
FW: Look, I'm not going to lie. I hope that if that happens one of you tags me out.
RM: I will if I can.
FW: And so will Alex and Lexie. But if I have to.....here, let me show you something.
Firewoman opens the door that says "Firewoman's Room."
RM: You mean...you and Alex don't--
FW: Of course we do. But I still need my personal space, and most of this stuff weirds him out so....
RM: Are...you sure?
FW: Dr. Freedman says I have to open up more, and that does mean letting people into my private room sometimes....
Firewoman opens the door, and there's a low seat, candles lit about, and a small table with all sorts of things on it. An altar of some sort.
RM: So?
FW: Rabbit, after I got back from being with Eco, I tried getting back in touch with my spiritual side. Did a whole cleansing thing at Carnival. And it helped....but not enough. I basically just shut down and stopped with everything I cared about. People, included. So...I'm working on that and other stuff, so I started meditating again and.... Well, here, I've been reciting this:
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
RM: That's.....is it helping?
FW: It's not hurting. And one day....soon.......Maybe Wednesday, but maybe later.... Junichiro Muyo will no longer control me. I will no longer fear him...
RM: And then what?
FW: I will turn the tables. I will make him fear ME. And that will sparkle with me.
RabbitMask nods as the scene fades.

~~~ A Randomly Numbered Sexy Female Journalist catches up with Chad & Zane at the OOWF Training Facility ~~~
RNSFJ: So Chad, what's next for the Texpress?
Chad: Well toots, we've been blocked from facing the Hawaii'ans for the World Tag Team Championships. So we're working on the next best thing, finding a partner to help us take the Campeonas de Trios from them.
Zane: And believe me, we will find the right partner. We Will win those Championships once again.
RNSFJ: Any ideas who you will be teaming with next?
Zane: Not as of now. We face the Maple Leaf Mafia this week in a tag team match. I cannot seem to get a straight answer out of Selena's office as to when we will get our next opportunity at the Campeonas.
Chad: As for potential partners, there are plenty of folks who are looking for a shot at the New Guard. So the door is open. We're looking to put the first chink in the armor of the New Guard. If anyone, Firewoman, LD, Lobo, Danny whenever he gets back, Rabbit Mask, heck, even Stank, is ready to step up and give it a shot, all they need to do is say so.
RNSFJ: I noticed you left out a name there.
Zane: Davin too. He knows where we are. All he needs to do is pick up the phone.
Chad: (to the RNSFJ) you too babe. If you ever need anything, just call me. I'll take care of All your needs
~~~ He puts his arm around her and walks her out the door as we fade....~~~

*Savage Harbour Coastline*
It's late at night and the only visible light is coming from the nearby lighthouse. A INC turns on it's night vision camera as it walks along the foggy beach until a bright light blinds the INC and the nightvision turns to a regular camera and we see the start of a fire. Standing behind the fire in a dark hoodie is Alexander Darling as he looks out into the water.
Alexander: Yes I know you're there and want me to say something to the fans of our great company but allow me to finish what I am doing.
Alex reaches down into his bag and takes out some powders and mixes a few in his hands before tossing them into the fire and we see a rainbow color burst of smoke before it finally settles on a green smoke. Alex takes a few moments to stare into the fire before he takes a seat in a position where he can see both the fire and the water.
Sometimes I come across as having no respect for cultures or beliefs but that's not entirely accurate or fair. I was raised to believe in God. To believe in the church formed in my god's name. To follow their rules and regulations without doubt or question and I tried. I really did. But one of their major commandments was to respect my parents. Parents that have never thought I was good enough. Parents who had unrealistic expectations no matter what I did.
So I couldn't just not question things. I had to see if there was more. More for me and more for the family that did think I was good enough. So I searched but I kept it private. I've met many people in this business and they've all taught me new things. They've expanded my horizons when it comes to beliefs. To new cultures. To experiencing everything the world has to offer but it's not something I normally allow the world to see.
The fact is I know I'm changing once again. I truly believe I could have been happy being the Alexander Darling I have been for the last few years but I don't believe my family could have been happy if I stayed that man. And not because that Alexander Darling isn't a good man, because he was, but because he wasn't willing to do anything and everything to make sure certain people cease to cause problems. I am willing to sacrifice everything I've become to make those people closest to me happy. To make sure they never have to live with your shadow ever again.
So I sit here in the dark wondering what my future holds. I know I should be at the arena right now apologizing for my past behavior towards one of my partners this week, but I can't make myself do it. Because that's what the old Alexander would have done and I can't be that man. With that being said, with me needing to make this change...the people who will truly suffer are those who choose to walk into battle with the enemy.
Sharkoff, I appreciate your goal to bring pride to the motherland, but not this week...not this time. It's not about America against Russia or the stars and stripes facing off against the hammer and sickle, it's about you being in my way to achieving my goals and for that I am sorry about how much you will feel pain this week. How much blood you will lose, but just remember...you can stop it at any time by stepping aside and allowing me to reach my goal. Do not stand in my way for pride or glory as it will only lead to pain and suffering. Realize that it is not what Mother Russia would want you to do.
And Ghosthead...the brother of one of my toughest opponents ever, but yet nothing like him. That makes you an unknown factor Ghosthead and I will be cautious of that, but remember this...I am not the same Alexander Darling that has wrestled your brother. I know you've been trained by similar men as me and I will remember that you are capable as inflicting as much pain and suffering as I am, but also remember we are not enemies and we do not need to be. Your business in the OOWF is your own just as my business is my own. We're on opposite sides of the ring this week, but our paths do not have to cross. No one will think any less of you if you step aside and allow the world to be a better place. Allow me and my sister to finish what we've started and I promise you a chance to test just how great you are against the very best in this company. But it is your decision and I will not take it personally Ghosthead. But know this, if you stop me from going after what I want, it will be you who faces the rapture.
Here's the bottom line...I don't like the man I am becoming but it is necessary. Juni, we both know you're a lost cause so it's not even worth it but your partner in crime...his day of reckoning is coming. And I will be there for it. So prepare yourselves OOWF...
Alex reaches into his bag and pulls out another handful of powder and he plays with it in his hand for a moment as he gets to his feet and looks right into the camera as he blows the powder into the fire and it extinguishes instantly.
Darkness is coming and I'm coming with it.[/i]

CUT to a random office ... somewhere. At the desk is the attaché of OOWF World Heavyweight Champion The Crusher Stan Fulton, Martha Rodriguez. She's just finished watching the latest batch of promos.
"Chris. Let's be clear. There's no quote-unquote leader of the New Guard. We're all in this together. We all agreed that we set aside our egos and take this company to the next level.
"That being said, we do need a voice. A spokesperson, if you will. If you're willing to be that voice please do. We're being laughed at. Dismissed. Called a flash in the pan.
"That does not sit well with me. I am the sole employee of this company's World Champion and as such, it is my duty to make sure he reigns a long, long time. Now if he's going to be a member of the New Guard, it's in his best interest that said New Guard is taken seriously.
"We're not. If you're the voice of the New Guard, get out there and make sure we are. We're all behind you if you want that role. Every one back there, J-P, Matt, Kai and Aina believe in this. We're not divided. We all have that same goal of making sure those that earn a shot, get a shot. As we've said, we're cleaning up this shithole.
"And to those that call us idiots?"
Rodriguez looks down before looking back up into the camera... very seriously.
"Don't fuck with the New Guard."

The wrestlers and staff are assembled for the pre-match brunch at catering. It is, of course, decorated to the max for the holidays by our esteemed Commissioner. Alexander and Alexis are in line while Fire is off talking strategy with Rabbit Mask. Alexander is just about to hold Alexis's coffee for her while she gets some toast when gets a phone call.
AD: Huh? Oh hey, Dr. Freedman. Yeah, I got some time...
Alexander holds up a finger to Alexis to say "I'll be just a minute" and walks away, leaving her standing there trying to juggle all her stuff. She stands there watching him walk away, a little annoyed, when a voice startles her from behind.
MHJ: Annoying, isn't it.
LD: Go away. We're supposed to--
MHJ: Hey, it's a common area, and everyone comes to this. Besides, you can't stop people from talking. So how many times has that happened, Alexis?
LD: What.
MHJ: Alexander dropping you like a hot coal to go tend to one of Fire's many MANY issues. She is so high maintenance...
LD: Alexander puts the well being of all his family members as his top priority.
MHJ: Yeah, he's a saint. But what happens when two family members need his help at once. Who does he run to first? Yet another way Fire has replaced you.
LD: I hardly think that me spilling my coffee is on the same level as talking with one of Fire's doctors.
MHJ: Probably...but let's see what happens tonight, when I've got you in a Ji-endo and Eco has Fire in a Dragon Sleeper, and they're calling for the bell but neither of us are letting go. Or maybe Eco just looks at Fire the wrong way and she crumbles in the corner. Who do you think he goes to first?
Alexis glares at Moose, who merely smiles, takes a bite of an apple, and walks away.

Eco walks in to the catering area eating an apple.
Eco: Hey, I heard my name?
LD: Jack is making idle threats.
Eco: Oh cool. I've got a great one. "I'll shove your head so far up your ass you'll pop out your mouth!" Get it? It's an impossible threat for a couple reasons...
MHJ: Where the fuck have you been?
Eco: It's Christmas and I was really behind on shopping. So Mai helped me make a list and took me out--
MHJ: Let's have a talk.
Moose drags Eco over to the corner.
MHJ: I know you have weird shit, and I haven't asked much of you recently.
Eco: Right, but that wasn't the point. I'm here at your service, but--
MHJ: Is that just the drugs talking?
Eco: Excuse me?
Eco: Okay. Right. I...wish Mai hadn't found that.
MHJ: Do you think she's right?
Eco: Which part?
MHJ: Your motivations.
Eco: ...Moose...I admit that it probably did not make too many of your buddies happy when you took me on board. But you came to me, because of Him. Every alienating thing you have done since then is because of Him. You want to discuss secrets, tell me who the fuck He is.
MHJ: (laughs) It's not time yet.
Eco: Did He tell you to be a fucking idiot and not get checked out by the doctor earlier? Or was that 100% Moose brainpower?
MHJ: When did you start taking the drugs?
Eco: Right before you first approached me. And it's been a fun ride of sorts, following someone else for a change in my life. Your violence is often...undirected. I think that's why you have the cult following of fans you do. People love agents of chaos. Me...I've always been the schemer the Joker derided. And I think that may be more unhealthy.
MHJ: It's not all undirected.
Eco: I've noticed. And that's worrying me.
MHJ: Did you catch the meeting earlier?
MHJ: There's a loophole there.
Eco: No, there isn't. "Or their entourages?" That includes me.
MHJ: Only about the Darling family.
Eco: I wouldn't argue it. I also wouldn't have even have had the conversation with Lexie you were having earlier.
MHJ: I'm not letting this go because of some legalistic bullshit.
Eco: What do you owe Selena, Moose?
MHJ: Excuse me?
Eco: If secular morality is to be based on anything, Moose, it is based on reciprocal obligation and debts to be paid. And I believe that at one point, you cared for Selena--not in the way Poe does, but perhaps as an Uncle indeed--and taking on the role confers obligation. It's something that He would like to ignore, of course. He'd like to pretend the whole world is against you and that there's no way for you to find a comfortable, happy space within it. That being the sadist you are, you can never find comfort, you can never be satiated, you can never be cared for and loved as you are.
And that's a lie. I know it is.
Eco takes out his passivity pills, and pops one.
Eco: I'm going to go back to being with my sister. Do let me know if you need me.
Eco walks away from Moose, and bumps into Honcho Williams.
Eco: Dude, I feel your pain on college finals. Almost had to phone it in this week.
HW: "I will hit you so hard that I will hit you very hard?"
Eco: I don't even think I would have gotten to the restrictive relative clause.
Eco and Honcho fist-bump, and Eco leaves.

<Moose stops Eco before he gets too far>
MHJ: Just hold up a second, I need to know something.
<Moose pauses for a moment, and is clearly pissed off>
MHJ: Are you all in or not? When I approached you about this, about aligning and burning the OOWF to the ground, not through board meetings, or hostile takeovers, or stock options, or any of that other bullshit, but through a complete disregard for Them, through violence for the sake of violence, you were on board. You were all in.
And now? You pop these stupid pills and go to your happy place with your sister. I want an answer now, are you with me in ruining the Darlings, and anyone else who steps in our way, forever, or are you not?
<Eco seems to consider this for a moment>
Eco: For the sake of argument, what if I am not?
<Moose steps close to Eco>
MHJ: Then you become the enemy too, and you will burn just like the rest of them. He won't allow anything else
<Moose turns and walks away, Eco remains for a moment, then shrugs and walks away in the opposite direction.

OOWF MidWeek Mayhem Live! From Savage Harbour, Prince Edward Island, Canada We hear the sound of Jingle Bells and there's a fake-video snowflake boarder around the screen. The background is a large Christmas tree with multicolored lights, and then General Manager theSelena al-Tikriti steps into the frame. She is wearing this:  GMtSa-T: Hi! And Merry Christmas! And...whatever other holidays there are, who cares? This is a Very Special episode of OOWF Mayhem, but not in the crappy sitcom way, where they tackle a "serious" issue and send a "message." Although, we do have one of those, so let me introduce you all to my Commissioner, FIREWOMAN! Firewoman appears wearing this:  <except where it's red, it's actually black latex. And take my advice and do NOT ever search for 'leather santa.' Ever.> GMtSa-T: What happened? I thought I got you a green one to match this! FW: Because I'm not wearing that. Can we get to the point here? GMtSa-T: Fine....it's your thing, go ahead. FW: Thank you. The proceeds for tonight's show are going to buy presents for children in need, especially those at Covenant Houses around the country. There's a toll free number that will run across the bottom of your screen if you want to donate. GMtSa-T: So see? If a godless heathen like this can get into the spirit, you have no excuse. Now DIAL! And let's get on with the show. MERRY CHRISTMAS! FW: Happy Solstice. And Stephanie? This one is for you. Dark MatchJustin Sane def. Captain Excellent via DOUGHAWK! when the lights in the arena went our TEXPRESS vs. MAPLE LEAF MAFIAThe Texans make their way to the ring and offer MLM a handshake, but the Canadian heels attack them instead. The attack doesn’t last very long as Chad and Zane are able to turn the tables rather quickly. Chad and Zane keep the Canadian Nightmare in the ring and dazzle with quick tags and double team moves. Texpress looks as sharp in this match as they ever have. Canadian Nightmare gets the advantage with a thumb to the eye (not a lame disqualification in the OOWF) and tags in the Canadian Dream, but Chad was playing a little possum. Canadian Dream goes for a clothesline, but Chad ducks and tags in Zane and they hit a DOUBLE DROPKICK! They set Canadian Dream up and hit DON’T MESS WITH TEXAS! Zane covers and gets the three count. WINNERS in 6:13 - Texpress RICKY SOARING EAGLE vs. ATTITUDE ADJUSTER – Winner Gets an Intercontinental Title Shot TonightAttitude Adjuster comes to the ring, accompanied by Eric O’Mac, though Eric looks completely disinterested. Ricky Soaring Eagle is announced next and comes to the ring and turns to snarl at the crowd. Bad move. Attitude Adjuster NAILS Soaring Eagle from behind dropping the big man to one knee. Bad move. Soaring Eagle turns around and glares at AA in a rage and grabs him by the throat. AA escapes with a scientific thumb to the eye. As Soaring Eagle staggers around the ring, AA hits him from behind with a chop block, then locks him in a figure four, and reaches out for Eric to help him with a little leverage, but Eric is sitting at ringside reading the latest PWI 500 and laughing. AA breaks the hold and gets to his feet and yells at Eric, Eric just shrugs and says he is scouting future opponents for them. AA seems to accept this and turns back to Soaring Eagle, only now RSE is on his feet. AA yells NOOOO! And drops to his knees and begs off, but RSE grabs him, throws him into the corner and KILLS AA with a running forearm to the jaw that snaps his head back. AA staggers and Soaring Eagle grabs him again and hits the RETURN TO EARTH! Soaring Eagle covers him, and gets the three count. WINNER in 11:10 – Ricky Soaring Eagle After the match Eric tosses the magazine aside and heads up the ramp. AA gets to his feet and looks frustrated. He turns around and a cardboard cutout of Johnny Adrenaline is standing there. AA appears to be getting berated by the cardboard cutout, he argues back for a moment, then hangs his head and agrees. He takes the cut out and heads to the back. Strange indeed. AINA vs. DAVIN MORELANDThe two men are announced and the match begins. Davin has the HUGE edge in singles experience and it shows early on. He blocks every attempt at Aina’s offense and keeps the big man grounded. Aina manages to fight back several times, and rocks Davin with several headbutts to the face. Moreland staggers, and Aina takes him down with a perfect kick to the jaw. Aina takes over and punishes Davin with high impact moves, but the wily veteran keeps kicking out. Aina plants Davin with a spinebuster, then heads to the top rope for a SUPERFLY SPLASH! As he leaps, Davin kips up to his feet and catches him with a REALLY GOOD DIAMOND CUTTER! Davin rolls Aina over and covers, one, two, three! This one is OVER! WINNER in 10:25 – Davin Moreland THE DARLINGS & TEAM RABBXTFIRE vs. THE SAINTS OF SINNERS, GHOSTHEAD & COMRADE SHARKOFF – Anything Goes Street FightThe Darlings and Team RabbxtFire are out first, The Saints of Sinners, Sharkoff and Ghosthead are announced next and storm the ring. The faces are ready for the attack and take the fight to the heels. Firewoman and Ghosthead square off while Rabbxt and Sharkoff go toe to toe. Inside the ring, Alex, Alexis, Moose and Eco brawl around the ring, pummeling one another with anything not nailed down. The action spills out of the ring and up the ramp. Ghosthead grabs Fire by the throat and chokeslams her into the third row, but he can’t maintain any kind of advantage because Rabbit Mask flies out of nowhere and KILLS him with a kick to the jaw. Sharkoff and Moose take turns hitting Alexis with a chair while Alex and Eco are doing their best to end one another’s lives. It doesn’t take very long until all eight participants are bloody messes. Ecosystem and Fire are squaring off, Fire has a look of some mix of terror and rage in her eyes, she grabs a chair and Eco drops to his knees in front of her begging her to hit him. Fire hesitates slightly and Sharkoff blasts her from behind with a chain. Sharkoff and Eco put the boots to Fire, but Rabbit struggles out of the wreckage of the table he had just been put through and makes the save. Ghosthead joins the fight making it three on two. Inside the ring, Moose has Alexis set up for the GO TO SLEEP FOREVER when Alex hits him from behind with a sledge hammer shot to the back of the head. Moose falls to the mat and Alex pulls him up and PLANTS him with a DARLING DRIVER! Alexis grabs Moose and struggles to lift him for the KUDOH DRIVER, Alex tries to help, but Alexis drops Moose and shoves Alex away, then grabs Moose again, lifts him and hits the KUDOH DRIVER! Alexis covers and gets a blood soaked one, two, three! WINNERS in 25:49 – The Darlings & Team RabbxtFire THE KAI vs. LD WILLIAMSThe Kai is out first and gets booed out of the building. His opponent LD Williams is announced next and the cheers for the Canadian favorite nearly blows the roof off the place. The two men meet in the middle of the ring and a staredown ensues. The Kai breaks the moment with a chop to LD’s chest. LD responds with one of his own and the two exchange rapid chops that leave both their chests bloody with welts. LD gets the better of the exchange and grabs Kai and sends him to the ropes and elevates him with a back body drop on the rebound, but Kai lands on his feet and when LD turns around, he catches him on the jaw with a superkick. LD staggers to the ropes and Kai charges at him and tries a clothesline, but LD backdrops him to the floor. LD gets a running start and dives between the ropes and takes Kai out, the crowd goes nuts. The match continues back and forth, LD has Kai set up for a CANADIAN DESTROYER but Kai slips out of it and bails to the floor, LD follows him and the two tear into one another and completely lose track of the referee’s count and both get counted out. WINNER – Double Count out in 15:21 MATT FOLZ vs. EL LOBO SANGRIENTOFolz and Lobo circle slowly and lock up. Both men work the other to the mat and try various submission moves. Folz works Lobo’s knee and hamstrings while Lobo takes every opportunity to work Folz’s back. Neither man can get a clear advantage over the other. Lobo catches Folz with a SPINEBUSTER and rolls him over into a BOSTON CRAB but Folz makes it to the ropes and saves himself. Lobo tries a knee drop, but Folz moves out of the way and Lobo gets nothing but mat. Folz grabs Lobo’s knee and quickly locks him in a figure four trying for the submission, but the big man makes it to the ropes. The end comes when Lobo tries to lift Folz for a suplex, but his knee buckles just a little. Folz comes down and rolls the big man into a surprise small package and gets the three count just before Lobo kicks out. WINNER in 21:11 – Matt Folz STAN FULTON vs. STANK vs. ERIC O’MAC vs. OUTBACK JACK – Non-Title MatchThe four men all make it to the ring, and before the bell even rings, the match breaks down. Stan and Jack renew hostilities from the Old Guard-New Guard feud while Stank and Eric settle an old score. Jack and Stan fall out of the ring and brawl around ringside while Eric and Stank remain inside the ring and mix it up. On the outside, Jack tries a falling headbutt on a prone Stan, but Stan moves out of the way and Jack slams face first onto the concrete. Stan pulls him to his feet and slams him face first into the ring post. Stan rolls into the ring where Stank has just thrown Eric over the top rope to the floor. Stan and Stank go nose to nose and the two big men just glare at one another. Before they can come to blows, a bloody Outback Jack grabs Stan from behind and throws him out of the ring and goes after him some more. Inside the ring, Eric climbs to the top rope and tries to surprise Stank with a cross body block, but Stank catches him, hefts him onto his shoulder and PLANTS him with a STANK-U! Stank covers, and gets the three count WINNER in 24:52 - Stank JP SPARXX vs. PSYKLE – Best of Three Series, Match 2Match 2 of their best of three series, Sparxx won the first one, so Psykle has to win this one to stay alive. Psykle tries a handshake before the match and Sparxx gives him the most sarcastic handshake in the history of wrestling. The bell rings and Psykle attacks, pummeling a shocked Sparxx from pillar to post. Sparxx stops the onslaught by catching Psykle with a tornado DDT from the corner. He hits several high risk moves on the larger Psykle, but can’t keep him down for the three. Psykle fights back and sends Sparxx out of the ring and half way up the ramp with a release belly to belly suplex. Psykle gets Sparxx and rolls him back into the ring but can only keep him down for a two count. Sparxx tries to fight back, but that move took a lot out of him and he is favoring his back. Psykle whips Sparxx HARD into the corner and nearly takes his head off with a big boot as he staggers out. Psykle sets Sparxx up for the PSYCHO DRIVER when the bell rings! Psykle looks confused. The referee explains that the time limit has expired! Psykle is clearly frustrated, Sparxx climbs off the top rope, grabs his title and slithers to the back. Psykle is still alive, match three will be next week! WINNER – 15:00 time limit draw CHRIS EVANS vs. RICKY SOARING EAGLE – OOWF Intercontinental Title MatchSoaring Eagle is out and ready for action. Chris Evans makes his way to the ring and climbs to the top rope and shows off the Intercontinental title, drawing more boos from the crowd. The bell rings and the match begins. The two lock up and Soaring Eagle shows he has a distinct advantage in power by tossing Evans around the ring. Evans uses his speed advantage to avoid Soaring Eagles offense, and finally grounds the big man and works over his neck and shoulder. Soaring Eagle fights back to his feet and lands a big powerslam on Evans for a two count. Evans fights back and catches RSE with a Pele kick to the top of the head, then heads to the apron and tries a springboard forearm but RSE moves and Evans crashes and burns. RSE grabs him and traps him in the CACTUS THORN! Evans looks like he is going to tap, but eventually makes it to the ropes forcing the break. RSE tries to pull Evans up, but Evans NAILS him with a low blow! The referee somehow missed that, but it pissed RSE off to no end and he grabs Evans and throws him into the corner and HAMMERS him with punches and kicks. The referee tries to break them up, but Soaring Eagle shoves the referee to the mat, that was not a smart move. The referee gets to his feet and immediately calls for the bell. WINNER in 16:15 by disqualification – Chris Evans Thanks for coming out and watching LIVE OOWF action! Be sure to check out the OOWF New Years Evil 7, Live!
