JB : "Welcome to EFW Massacre, fans! I'm Jim Biggins alongside Buck Hammerstien. We've got quite a lineup here for you tonight: three matches in the Light Heavyweight tournament, two mountains colliding with each other, and a pair of matches pitting longtime rivals against each other!!"
BH : "That's right, Jim. We all know Paul Savage and Rick Idol have a history, but some may have forgotten the history between Vermin and Justin Cross, which started all the way back during Vermin's 'Masked Wonder' days."
JB : "In our tournament matchups, we've got two EFW veterens in Bane and 'The Extreme' Condo Warrior facing off against two relative newcomers in Mobius and Exodus, and in the last match we have two rookies squaring off as Legion and Narcisse Prince take it to the ring."
BH : "Mobius and Exodus certainly have their work cut out for them, but don't bet against them, these two show a lot of promise. Especially Exodus, who is coming off a stunning upset of Destructo."
JB : "Fans, here's our complete card!"

(A shot of the outside parking lot. The Hell Patrol are seen standing up against the wall, looking to be waiting for something. The camera quickly turns to the sound of a car burning rubber into the garage. It is a police car, with the lights on top spraying the area with blue and red light. The back window is kicked out, and one of the headlights is hanging off the front. It is speeding towards the camera at about 60 miles per hour, and stops on a dime in front of the Hell Patrol. Mr. Wiggles gets out of the car, with half a pair of hand cuffs on his right wrist. Smoking a cigar, he slams the door as he exits the vehicle)
Mr. Wiggles : "What's shaking boys? I got the call from Tyrant. Oh, hold on a sec. "
(He turns back around and goes to the trunk of the car. He opens it, and takes out 2 cans of gasoline, and soaks the car in it. He throws the canisters in the back seat, and walks up to the Hell Patrol)
Mr. Wiggles : " Ok boys, lets do some damage. "
(With that, he takes one final puff on the cigar, then throws it over is shoulder into the police car, which immediately bursts into flames. All three men exit into the building)
Vermin vs Justin "Lone Wolf" Cross
The match began with Cross rushing in and throwing hard rights and lefts at Vermin, who was standing and taking the punches voluntarily. Cross continued to hammer him, barely moving Vermin. Vermin was screaming at Cross to hit him harder, and pointing to his chin and wagging his tongue. Cross knew this wasn't working, so he took the low road, and surprised Vermin with a quick kick the crotch. Vermin felt that pain, as Cross continued his beating on the bent over Vermin, and as Vermin was still stunned, Cross hooked the head and DDT'd him down to the mat. Cross quickly rose, and began stomping Vermin as he pushed himself up. Cross bounced himself off the opposite ropes, and rebounded back to hammer Vermin with a running forearm smash. Vermin stood, and as Cross came in Vermin knocked him into next week with THE HAMMER OF HATE Lariat. Cross flipped around like a wet noodle, and hit the mat hard. Vermin reached down, and grabbed Cross by the neck, and lifted him off the mat with one arm, then up and threw him down to the mat again for a CHOKE SLAM! Cross bounced of the mat with a sickening thud, that shook the ring. Cross was staggering to get up, and managed to get to his feet. He threw a few wild punches at Vermin, which missed completely and Vermin laughed at his efforts. Cross was shaken, but not out. Vermin chopped Cross down to the mat with a pseudo knife edge chop, that was more like a bear smacking Cross. Vermin reached down, and pulled cross up from the mat. he sent him to the ropes for another Lariat, but Cross caught the ropes. He sprang off them with full force and slammed into Vermin with a launching shoulder tackle. Vermin staggered backwards a bit, and as Cross rose he grabbed him and set him up for a POWERBOMB. Up and then down, Cross hit the mat with all of Vermin's strength behind him. Vermin held on to the legs and locked Cross into a Texas Cloverlead. Cross refused to tap, but the referee stopped the match, seeing Cross had no chance to escape.
RESULT:
Vermin d. Cross via submission at 4:59
JB : "Vermin continues his winning ways here in the EFW."
BH : "I don't like him or the people he associates with, but you can't deny his ability."
JB : "Next up is one half of the newly crowned tag team champions, the Warhouds' Onslaught, taking on Inquisition member Deathblow."
BH : "The Warhounds taking the tag team belts should suprise no one. Many experts considered Widowmaker the better of the Outlaws, and Onslaught has always been a force in the EFW. It's just too bad they have to work for the Pantheon."
JB : "That being said, let's take you to Onslaught vs Deathblow."
Onslaught vs Deathblow
The match began as a brawl all over the ring, both men throwing their fiercest blows at each other. Onslaught out lasted DB, and got the upper hand with a head butt. DB stumbled backwards and Onslaught hammered him in the stomach with a boot. Onslaught brought his hard elbow down on the back of the neck of DB, knocking him the rest of the way to the mat. Onslaught put the boots to DB, then stopped to scream at a fan in the crowd. DB got up, and floored Onslaught with a back brain lariat.

Widowmaker slid into the ring, as the Spanish announce table explodes! Legion, Moebius and Deathblow escape into the smoke around the spanish announce table. When the smoke finally cleared, Widowmaker was left standing by the ruins of the table where an open hatch could be seen on the floor. The Inquisition had escaped through it.
JB : "Two shocking upsets in two days here in the EFW! First Exodus defeats Destructo, now Deathblow beats Onslaught."
BH : "You have to start asking yourself now if Deathblow's wins can really be considered upsets. He was in the final three at COAL3, and now he beats Onslaught, albiet not exactly fairly, but what difference does that make in the EFW?"
JB : "That's the truth. Speaking of Exodus, let's head back to the ring now for a Light Heavyweight Title tournament match: Exodus vs 'The Extreme' Condo Warrior. Can Exodus continue his winning ways?"

They were left laying as the camera shot switches back to Condo, who had Exodus in position on the ring apron. He lifted Exodus, and Tombstone Piledrove him through both tables!! Exodus was left in a heap as Jade and Condo made their exit.
JB : "Not only does Exodus have to suffer being humiliated by Condo, but Condo goes for the ultimate in disrespect by trying to unmask his opponent!"
BH : "As usual, Condo is forced to cheat to get anywhere near winning a match."
JB : "Funny you should say that, Buck. We've got another pathological cheater coming up in our next contest, Bane of the Sickos on Parade as he faces the Inquisition's Mobius."
Bane vs Mobius
Light Heavyweight Tournament, Round 1
