Fireworks are set off through the arena as the camera pans across the arena showing all the die hard IWF fans standing on their feet. The camera focus on the titan-tron as a massive firework display sets off before focusing on Josh Hart and Kerry Lane at the Commentator's Booth.​

Josh Hart: Welcome to Impact Wrestling Federation Monday Mayhem! This is our last Monday Night Mayhem before Fallout and we have a great show for you.​

Kerry Lane: Yes we do! Tonight, we will crown the finalists who will take on the winners of last week's qualifying matches to be named, World, Xtreme, and Intercontinental champion.​

​

Josh Hart: I couldn't be more excited for tonight's show. Let's kick things off with the Xtreme championship match...wait...I'm getting word that a brawl has broken out backstage....​

The camera cuts backstage in a restroom to see Aaron Williams in his plastic coat getting ready for his match. He shadowboxes for a moment then starts to stretch out his right arm. He sits down and begins to stretch out his hamstrings when he gets a boot to the face by Mannie!

Josh Hart: Oh my gosh! Get a ref back there! Mannie is ready to start this match!

As Hart finishes his sentence, a ref runs over and calls for the bell to be rung.

Bell Rings: Mannie stomps on Williams for a while before he picks him up and pummels him with a few hard punches. Mannie hits a hard European Uppercut knocking Williams back down to the ground. Mannie goes and grabs William’s legs only to be pushed back into a glass mirror! The glass shatters and Mannie has about 12 shards of glass sticking out of his back! He walks back over to Williams only to get hit with a dropkick sending him right back into the former mirror!

Josh Hart: Look at the blood flowing out of Mannie’s back!

Williams leads Mannie out of the bathroom into the arena parking garage! Williams throws Mannie into a red Mustang. Williams goes to the SUV next to the Mustang and climbs on top of it! Williams goes for a Missile Dropkick but Young Mannie moves out of the way and his legs go straight through the side passenger window!

Kerry Lane: Oh my goodness! Williams is hanging upside down with his legs stuck in the low Mustang!

Mannie climbs on the SUV and hits a Missile Dropkick to Williams who still hangs nearly immobile. Mannie grabs Williams’ upper body and slams it down to the Mustang! Aaron slowly slides out of the Mustang and lands onto the ground. Mannie rolls Williams onto the hood of the SUV and hits the DBM! Williams rolls off the SUV onto the ground as Mannie leaves him in the garage. Mannie leaves the garage and walks through the electrical room as “Drop the World†hits and he comes out onto the ramp. He yells something to the crowd and starts to walk to the ring. He rolls through the ropes from ringside and sits down in the ring and pulls out a “Black and Mild†cigarette. He pulls out a lighter and lights it and starts to smoke it. He sticks it into the side of his mouth and calls for a mic. Somebody tosses one to him and he begins to talk.

Young Mannie: Yo, man. You muddaf*****s are lucky to see somethin’ like that. I mean, it’s not everyday you can see the greatest tag team champion of all times in action. Soon, I will be the IWF Xtreme Ch…

“Prepare for War†hits and Young Mannie stares at the ramp waiting for Williams to come out. Mannie stares at the ramp waiting and gets hit by a Cobra Clutch Backbreaker from behind by Williams! There is a ladder next to Williams and he sets it up! Aaron hops to the top of the ladder and hits the “420†Splash! Williams pins Mannie for the 1,2,3!

Jessica Lock: Here is your winner, Aaron Williams!

Josh Hart: What a match from both of these men! Williams took the DBM from the top of the SUV and Mannie STILL has glass shards in his back!

**Commercial**

Kerry Lane: And we're back and what a brutal contest we just witnessed.

Josh Hart: Well in case you're just joining us folks, we were supposed to kick off Mayhem with Dylan Harris versus Bradly Jona Kellert when a brawl between Aaron Williams and Young Mannie broke out starting their Xtreme Championship qualifier.

Kerry Lane: So at Fallout it will be Aaron Williams versus Logan Matthews to crown our first ever Xtreme Champion.

Lane and Hart get interrupted when Got Yourself a Gun by Nas hits the PA system. GM Vino Moltisanti comes out along with Furio, Paulie, and Vito. Vino doesn't look to happy. He grabs a mic from an announcer while getting mean mugged by Furio and Vito. Vino steps in the ring.

Vino: Well right now was supposed to be a pink slip match between Dylan Harris and Bradly Jona Kellert. Two guys that have shown yours truly, absolutely nothing. They don't come to events. They don't talk with me. They make absolutely no effort to be something here in IWF. And they by far aren't the only ones. Remember Bobby King? A former impact player (pardon the pun) here in IWF. Well you all in the audience saw him get beat to the grown by the one-night-only returning Charleston Stars. To those of you watching at home, it was rather hilarious let me tell ya. Then we have former IWF World Champion Nate Storm. Now Nate called me a few weeks back asking for a job and I gave it to him. I was very excited to see the old and the new of IWF come together. But then Nate has yet to show any kind of initiative whatsoever. Also, lets not forget about Jeremiah O' Haire. A guy that joined before I came and did nothing and joined back when I came...and still did nothing. Well let me tell yous all something. It's time to trim some fat around here and separate the ones who are serious about stepping up to the plate and guys who aren't. With that said, O'Haire, Harris, Kellert, Storm, and King are all sleeping with the fishes...metaphorically speaking of course. We took out the trash and now we ahve gotten rid of the dead weight holding us back. Thank yous and arriverdercci.

[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Kerry Lane[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]We are back from commercial with the second Intercontinental Championship qualifying match. AJ Cash made a huge statement last week. Don’t you agree, Josh?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Josh Hart: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Of course. First off, he refused to compete in a dark match before the show last week. Secondly, he was PUT into a show match and he was PART of the victory. Personally, I think Cash could’ve taken Baptie by himself last week. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Kerry Lane[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Though he could have done that, he still has to go through…this man.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Soon he enters the ring, scales the top rope, and raises his right arm in the air.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Kerry Lane[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Joey Harrington can obviously pave his way in a match and with a crowd.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]

A large “Prospect” chant breaks out and Harrington raises his arms. He turns around to find Cash standing! Cash takes Harrington down with a double leg takedown and starts nailing some strong rights and lefts! Cash stands up and picks up Harrington with him.

[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Josh Hart: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Whoa! What a DDT from the top rope by AJ Cash. He is phenomenal. “The Phenom of Phenomenal” AJ Cash. My new nickname for him.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Kerry Lane[/FONT][FONT=&quot]: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Will you stop. He may be good, but it takes a real man to kickout of a move like that. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Josh Hart: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]True, but you need to be a man to be able to incapacitate a man enough to execute a move like that. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cash picks Harrington up and gives him a stiff right hand punch. He pushes Harrington towards the ropes and goes for a Pele Kick but Harrington catches the leg and locks in a Single Leg Boston Crab! He yells something to the crowd, the crowd explodes and he wrenches in the submission even harder! The referee asks Cash if he wants to submit but he shakes his head and screams in pain. The ref continues to ask for submission as Harrington pulls up the opposite leg and locks on a Full Boston Crab! Cash yells in extreme pain as Harrington wrenches on the submission even more! Cash raises his right hand to submit but instead grabs the bottom rope to break the hold. When Harrington lets go Cash rolls out of the ring. Cash rolls around outside of the ring for a while until Harrington Suicide Dives at Cash but AJ moves and Harrington hits the barricades. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Kerry Lane[/FONT][FONT=&quot]:[/FONT][FONT=&quot] Oh my gosh! In all of my years of commentating, I have never seen anyone land on his head like Harrington just did. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cash picks up Harrington and Irish Whips him into the steel steps but Harrington puts his foot onto the step to stop himself from hitting them!

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Josh Hart: [/FONT][FONT=&quot]What a reversal! Cash thought he caught Harrington off guard due to Harrington looking at Steele but it was quite the contrary! Harrington’s so called experience exceeded in that situation. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]With Cash still lying down on his back, Harrington hops to the top rope! Harrington goes for the Frogsplash but Cash rolls out of the way! Harrington staggers up only to get caught by The Sacrifice! Cash goes for a pin! 1! 2! Kickout!

He is accompanied by his managers Max Alive and Luke Hades. He raises his arms and money with a lightening symbol, rains down into the crowd. He walks down the ramp shaking the fans hands. He slides into the ring and makes even more money fall from the rafters.
