[THE GIRL THAT RAN AWAY]
Avery Jackson. She came to the carnival to experience something her everyday life couldn't provide. Adventure, action, romance, passion and all the things she would read about in school and online. Here life was different. As she looked at the animals, in the pens where Gus kept his wildlife, she can't help but feel something new. A new feeling of discovery. The floor of the animal pen is covered in dirt. Avery sneezes from the dirt and laughs. In front of her, in a pen, is a wild tiger. The tiger's eyes meet hers for a moment. Again, Avery feels something.
Avery pulls a knife from her left pocket and slices the rope holding the cage closed. The tiger looks at her, their eyes meeting again, before running out of the tent entrance and into the wild unknown.
Welcome to CPW Avery Jackson, your adventure begins today.

Avery Jackson vs Holly Hammerstein
SINGLES MATCH
Avery attempts to take Holly down early with her baseball bat. Holly avoids and yells a few words at Avery. Avery shrugs and drops her weapon. The two then lock up with neither getting the upperhand. Holly bounces from the ropes and hits a clothesline on Avery. The fans react with cheers. Avery to her feet. She comes back with a clothesline of her own, then mounts Holly. Brawling type punches follow. Holly takes a few but easily escapes, being the more tenured wrestler.
Avery gets fired up and comes in with a dropkick. Holly goes down but kips back up. The two brawl for what feels like a few minutes. Holly lands a stiff elbow into Avery's jaw. Avery is down. Holly with a pin. Two count. Avery sweeps Holly's legs, bringing her the ground. Holly braces as Avery kicks her ribs. Holly grabs a leg and brings Avery toppling down. Both recover on the mat for a few seconds. Holly up first. Brings Avery up and back down with a bodyslam. Hits a leg drop from the top rope. Pin.
Two count. Holly rolls off and catches her breath. Avery uses the ropes to stand to her feet. Holly closes in and Avery catches her with a roll up. Two count. Avery pops up and get's caught in Holly's finisher The Avacado Drop. Holly goes to the top rope again to seal the match, but Avery rolls to the side before Holly can hit another leg drop. Avery is up. She goes to grab her bat. Holly back up. Avery comes in with the bat. Just as she swings, Holly throws a fist directly into Avery's jaw. The bat connects with Holly's skull, taking her down. Avery was hit hard enough to get knocked out. So was Holly.
Both women are knocked out so we have no choice but to call off the match to adminster medical attention.

We open to Alfie Tenner, managing a dart game, and Gus standing in front of the counter speaking to him.
Gus The Bust: You wanna make some money, kid?
Alfie Tenner: Always, blud. But I'm not begging.
Gus The Bust: I got a lot of money but not a lot of time. Shits going down tonight. I need you out of here after the main event. I got a car waiting for you.
Alfie Tenner: Alright! We talking about a prize, yeah?
Gus The Bust: Listen - if you're out here with all these folks when the shit hits the fan, you won't see the sun tomorrow. We have plans for you, and you're gonna make money. Inside that car is a gps. Follow the map. You should arrive in a few days. It's gonna take you near Mexico. You'll need to pick up a vip and bring him back to the carnival. It's ten thousand American dollars. Suit case in the backseat.
Alfie Tenner: Well I'm Alfie Fookin' Tenner. You want to pick up the VIP that's how you ask. Nice one.
Gus nods and hands Alfie a set of keys.

-RINGSIDE-
Before the match Calvin and Styx bring Mya to the ring like a dog while Gus watches from a distance. The two flog her the entire way. Her eyes are red and she looks exhausted. She also looks beat the fuck up and bloody. Been hard times for Mya Denton-King. They're not gentle with her. Styx tosses Mya into the ring like a bag of shit and the bell rings. In the distance we see Tiger Mask Red watching. Styx puts a foot on Mya's head, pusing her face into the canvas.
Styx: I understand some people aren't very happy with how Gus and I are running the show.
Calvin boots Mya in the butt.
Styx: I realize we're not nice people, but that's the way this works. I'm your boss, I don't NEED to be nice. But, if anyone has a problem, meet us at the Fun House after the show. We'll be waiting. We'll finish this quick before it goes any further.
And the bell rings.

-IN HER EYES, PAIN-
Mya Denton-King vs Calvin Lumas and Styx
HANDICAPPED MATCH
Mya fights like a wild, caged animal. She actually manages to open up Calvin on the forehead with a bite and send blood all over the ring. Styx isn't having any of it. He allows Mya to takes her anger out on Calvin, then sneaks in behind and german suplexes the poor girl. He does this a few dozen more times. He then holds her up and lets Calvin grope her, then super kick her in the face. Styx then pumphandle slams her, pins her and gets the three.
Calvin and Styx grabs Mya, carrying her back towards the fun house. Tiger Mask is nowhere to be seen by now.

On the midway there's a strange sound that seems to dance upon the wind. With the wind comes a man, walking onto that midway like an ancient god. Vertigo arrives, his body glimmering with a strange energy. It's almost as if he stepped through time and space itself to arrive here. He looks around for a moment and then, towards the distance. Far in the distance, protected by armed cartel and clowns is the fun house.
It would be a long night.

Azul34 vs Incognito
SINGLES MATCH
Incognito comes at Azul34 like a beast, but Azul34 is the hero of justice. Incognito is in for a painful match as Azul displays the full extent of his wrestling abilities upon Incognito. Try as he might, Incognito cannot escape the tornado that is Azul34. Azul34 hits various suplexes during his assault, ending with an octopus stretch that forces Incognito to tap like a bitch.

Jack Talbot, Tiger Mask Red and Reptilian arrive down the midway, moving towards the ring. As they do, they're ambushed by clowns! Gus has started the chaos before the match, sending his goons in to take out the three. However, Tiger Mask Red is ready and begins throwing fireballs at each clown! Jack grabs a clown and tosses him into the ring. At the same time Reptilian is busy biting, clawing and essentially cannibalizing the bozo brigade.

-BROS GONNA BRO-
The Brohawks vs Of Earth & Sea
TAG TEAM MATCH
The Brohawks act as a perfect team, just as the name says. Of Earth & Sea do not shame themselves this evening. This evening, they put on a good show with one of the best teams in CPW. The match starts out fast paced and in the favor of the masted duo. They hit double drop kicks, planchas and various high risk moves. The Brohawks, being bigger and slower, take the abuse. Eventually the tide turns as the masked duo begin to slow down, tired from their assualt. That's with the bigger wrestlers, with more endurance I might add, close in. The Brohawks hit dual body slams and leg drops, followed by five minutes of complete power destruction.
The Brohawks pick up the victory after Waterwheel Slam into Lungblower is hit on both members of Of Earth & Sea. Though they fight with the spirit of warriors, this was not their day. However, they are gracious in defeat and The Brohawks are happy to help the rookie team out of the ring.

Near the Ferris wheel there's a spark of energy. The carnival patrons, mostly rabid wrestling fans, give the sight very little attention. Most think it's another part of the show and simply go along their way. Of course, we know that those sparks mean Anna Mathews is soon to arrive. Indeed, she does. Out of the spark of energy appears a TARDIS. Smoke rises from around the TARDIS as the door slowly opens. Out walks Anna.
The timelord puts her hands to her waist and looks the carnival over. A week ago she had seen Carny Pro burning after the end of the world. She had wisly retreated. Still, if that was a vision of the future it was obvious something bad would happen very, very soon. Anna makes her way towards the midway after clicking a button on her key chain. There's a beep beep, as if from a car lock, as the TARDIS locks itself.
Anna walks for a few feet before stopping in her tracks. The camera pans to the side and we see Muffles the Rabbit standing face to face with Anna. Before we see too much the camera fades back to the ring.

-AND THE CHAMPIONSHIP HANGS OVERHEAD-
Toro Rojo, Jack Tillman and Mitsuo Shimada Vs Hijo de Sombra, Ryu Aka and Ryu Ao
TAG TEAM MATCH
Jack and Mitsuo shows their strips as a tag team, as do Ryu Bai. Red and Blue focus on Toro Rojo, delivering massive tag team moves. Hijo's style is complimentary to theirs, being face paced and methodical. Toro isn't a punk, though, and manages to take both members of Ryu Bai down after a few minutes of eating double drop kicks and striking moves. Tillman and Mitsuo focus their assault mainly on Hijo. Hijo, however, is used to the pains and just laughs every time he eats the canvas. The opening minutes are a basic tag team match, but once Toro takes out Ryu Bai things change.
Gus begins to make his way down the dirt path that leads to the ring. As Hijo is taking the assault, Gus swipes the SFT Championship! Hijo sees this but can be do little to give chase as he's currently stuck in an octopus stretch from Toro. Red and Blue decide enough is enough. They hit the ring, taking out the other team, and then give chase to Gus. Hijo follows. Eventually, Toro and The Dogs of War are declared winners. They aren't happy about it though. They also give chase.
Devin Hearst meets them on the way. He stops them and then points in the distance, towards the fun house Styx challenged others to meet him at.
-WINNERS: Toro Rojo, Jack Tillman and Mitsuo Shimada-

-RINGSIDE-
We cut to ringside. Zoe is standing there. Upon her face is a new luchador mask. It is her family tradition to wear the mask and now, as battle looms with Gus, Calvin and Styx, she wears the mask as a reminder of what she fights for. She stands there at ringside, taking in the fans and the scene as she readies herself. A match, then an assualt on a fun house. It was a regular day for her family. The camera pans back to reveal something else as well.
A full buffet of food. Sitting there, eating, is Redd Thunder! Zoe smirks. She outsmarted her opponents. Redd would be too busy eating his buffet to take part in the match. This would allow her to finish quickly and begin her assault. Of course, things are rarely that easy.

-BATTLE FOR THE MIDWAY-
Zoe Chaos, Anna Mathews and El Temerario vs Finch Maruta, Redd Thunder and Mariano Fernandez
ELIMINATION TAG MATCH
El Temeratio eliminates Finch Maruta @ 7 Minutes
Mariano eliminates El Temerario @ 12 minutes
Anna eliminates Mariano @ 13 minutes
Mariano tosses Zoe into Redd's buffet as he leaves. This causes Redd to become angry. He eliminates Zoe Chaos @14 minutes. Anna and Redd face off for about five minutes.
Anna eventually gets the upperhand when Redd, upset that his food was destroyed, leaves.
-WINNER: ANNA MATHEWS-

-SEGMENT-
On the midway Sombra is still giving chase to Gus. Ryu Bai is no where to be seen. Finch walks onto the scene. He takes one look at Gus, running with the SFT Championship in his arms, and Sombra, giving chase with full speed, and decideds to help Sombra. Gus is, after all, a creepy rapist clown. Finch begins to give chase. Sombra and Finch nearly catch Gus, but Gus runs as if he doesn't run our of energy. He takes a detour pass the food carts and ends up behind the carnival proper.
Gus The Bust: Can't catch me.
Gus smirks. In front of him is a lime green, clown themed helicopter. Finch and Sombra arrive just as Gus enters and begins to fly away.
Sombra: Dammit...
Finch grins and shakes his head. He reaches into the back of his pants and reveals a grappling hook! Sombra takes one look and grins. Sombra holds on to Finch's waist, Finch aims and throws the hook. It attaches to the bottom of the helicopter and two two begin flying through the air.
Finch: Hoooooooooooooooly...
The fans in attendance can no longer ignore these wild occurrences. Everyone looks up to watch the crazy scene. The helicopter makes it's way towards the funhouse.
We cut back to the ring where the ropes have been covered in barbed wire. Tiger Mask Red and Reptilian are making their way to the ring. The barbed wire was unexpected, but makes sense.

-THE TANGLED WEBS WE WEAVE-
CPW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
Reptilian and Tiger Mask Red vs Alfie Tenner and Rot Gut
BARBED WIRE MASSACRE TAG MATCH
Neither team expected to be facing in a barbed wire match. Alfie and Rot Gut will have to do this twice in one night. Both teams look focused and when the bell rings, all hell breaks lose. Alfie shoots Tiger Mask into the barbed wire, but TMR stops short to avoid hitting the wire. Reptilian locks up with Rot Gut at the opposite side of the ring. The two exchange grapples with Rot Gut taking Reptilian down with a massive headbutt. This leads to the two brawling as Alfie fights Tiger Mask with all he's worth.
Tiger does his best to avoid Alfie's beer bottle. Alfie was sure to bring it with him. Tiger Mask finally gets hit by the bottle in the side of the face and blood goes flying. This allows Alfie to shoot Tiger Mask into the barbed wire. The fans scream bloody murder as Tiger Mask comes off the barbed wire, back bleeding. Following this Tiger Mask loses his damn mind. He goes in and brawls with Alfie, forcing the carny to drop his weapon. There's biting, kicking and blood between the two.
Rot Gut has been taken down by Reptilian. Reptilian manages to push Rot Gut against the ropes, opening up his back on the barbed wire. Alfie takes down TMR. He brawls with Reptilian for a few minutes. Reptilian manages to spit green mist in Alfie's eyes. Alfie goes down. Reptilian is the only man standing. He goes to get TMR up. Both teams are up. They charge, and we have more brawling to the delight of the CPW fans. Eventually Rot Gut is thrown so hard against the barbed wire covered ropes that he becomes stuck and cannot escape. This allows Tiger Mask Red to sweep Alfie's legs. He grabs Alfie in a crippler crossface. Reptilian hits the ropes and boots Alfie's face.
All it takes is three seconds for Tiger Mask Red to pin Alfie and pick up the win, and the tag team titles!

-MAIN EVENT-
CPW BARBED WIRE MASSACRE CHAMPIONSHIP
Alfie Tenner vs Rot Gut vs Caleb Houston vs Mistah Jay vs Muffles vs TPK
BARBED WIRE MASSACRE MATCH
No rest for the wicked. Tiger Mask Red and Reptilian leave the ring area, walking towards the Fun House in the distance. Alfie stands down, Rot Gut can't escape the barbed wire. Their opponens make their way to the ring, astonished at the sight before them. Of course, Caleb Houston is quick to grab a kendo stick before entering the ring. He looks at it for a minute and then he feels something inside him change. He has become one with his weapon. He takes the weapon and uses it against every opponent displaying something of a human weapon feel.
It only lasts for a quick burst before Mistah Jay takes him down. As the two brawl, TPK pulls Rot Gut from the barbed wire and goes for a pin. Rot Gut kicks up. Alfie is back up. Rot Gut and Alfie work together to punish TPK. Mistah Jay makes his way to where they are after minutes of brawling with Caleb. He takes Alfie out from behind with a back stabber. Alfie headbutts TPK taking him down. More brawling. The action continues in the ring for about ten minutes. Before long every wrestler in the ring is covered in blood, having felt the sting of the barbed wire.
Mistah Jay is down. Zoe is watching from the crowd. Jay up. Muffles comes from nowhere and spears Jay back to the mat. He picks up Alfie, who by now is covered in his own blood, and wallops him with a huge right hand. Jay comes frm nowhere with a rollup on Muffles. Two count. TPK tosses Muffles into the barbed wire. Muffles is protected by his costume. He feels nothing. Caleb is up. He takes everyone down again with his kendo stick.
Alfie is up. Everyone is down except Alfie and Caleb. Caleb comes in with his kendo stick. He doesn't notice the bottle in Alfie's hand. Alfie swings and the bottle breaks over Caleb's head. Alfie pins and wins the championship at thirty five minutes!

-ENDING-
About twenty minutes after the main event....
The moment of truth. We open to a large field about half a mile away from the carnival proper. In the middle of this great, dusty field is what appears to be a three story, armored funhouse surrounded by clowns and luchadors. Clearly these are the henchmen of Styx and Gus the Bust. Spotlight shine down from the roof of the funhouse where a lime green helicopter is positioned. In the distance, far enough that they can't be seen by the henchmen, stands Tiger Mask Red, Jack Talbot, Reptilian, Zoe Chaos and Holly Hammerstein. There's a sound behind them and the group turns to see Nirvana driving towards them.
In the passanger seat is a woman covered in black body glitter from head to toe. Some might reconize her as the infamous Aguardente Ayano. Once the vehicle Nirvana is driving reaches the group, the car stops. Nirvana and his passenger leave the car meet up with the group. Tiger Mask Red gives Nirvana a nasty look. In his mind he is split. If he wasn't forced to work with Nirvana in this situation, he'd probably be attacking him right now.
Zoe Chaos: How are we supposed to get in there? The place is surrounded by clowns and cartel.
Aguardente Ayano: ¡Por el frente!
Nirvana: We brought help.
From behind comes a massive armored Jeep. Sitting inside the passanger seat is an armored Lilith Evans. Driving the jeep is Devin Hearst. In the back, managing the mounted gun, is Jack Tillman. Finally, in the backseat saying a haiku before battle is international superstar Mitsuo Shimada. The group watches as the vehicle speeds towards the front of the armored funhouse.
Devin Hearst: Let loose the Dogs of War!
Tillman begins to fire the mounted gun as a distraction, sending clowns and cartel members scattering. Mitsuo, finished with his haiku, leans out of the back window. In his arms is a rocket launcher! Mitsuo focuses, aims and fire a rocket. It hits the front door and causes a massive explosion that blows a hole in the wall of the funhouse. It's not long before Nirvana and company follow through, arriving on the scene in Nirvana's car. The group exits the car and stands shoulder to shoulder with the Dogs of War.
Tillman: Attack!
Incognito comes running from the broken wall, only to meet Lilith on the outside. Lilith smirks and holds a pistol up to Incognito's forehead. There's a loud pop, signaling the death of Incognito, as we fade back to the midway.
-MEANWHILE-
On the midway we find Avery Jackson surrounded by clowns. All hell has broken loose here. Avery has a baseball bat in her hands. She goes to take out a clown but gets dog tackled by five of the bastards. Just as it seems like she might lose there's a loud roar in the distance. It's the tiger Avery released at the start of the show. The tiger comes in, taking out four of the clowns holding Avery down with vicious claw swipes. Avery is back up. Avery takes her bat and finishes the job on the last clown.
Further down the midway we see Vertigo and El Temerario standing on top of a large building, watching as the chaos takes place.
Temerario: I need to help.
Vertigo: Not yet.
Temerario: But...
Vertigo places his hand on El Temerario's forehead. At that moment light shoots from El Temerario's eyes. In his mind he sees his father and grandfatherm proud warriors, battling the demons. He sees and he understands. In an instance all of Gus' plans become obvious to El Temerario. Gus seeks to renew the Dark Carnival, which his family has fought against for generations, with two masks. The two masks actually house the spirit of a demon champion El Temerario's father gave his life to defeat.
But he would also need a great sacfrice. Something changes in El Temerario. He begins to float, like Superman. Vertigo watches as everything comes together for the luchador. El Temerario begins to fly towards the funhouse
El Temerario: I AM EL TEMERARIO AND I AM A FREE MAN!
-MEANWHILE-
On the roof of the fun house, Sombra and Finch are standing off with Gus, Styx and a group of clowns. The two work together as a perfect unit, taking out every clown bodyguard Gus throws at them Sombra manages to take his SFT Championship back from Gus but Styx just laughs. He points towards the Ferris wheel on the midway.
There is a light, as if someone teleported in with a Tardis. Then they two see it. A massive time bomb. The fans in attendance scatter. There's a loud ticking sound and we can tell that if this things blows up, the entire carnival is going with it.
Finch: Oh my god!
Gus The Bust: God doesn't exist here, only demons.
Styx: Neither of you understand.
The two look towards Styx and Gus as if wanting answers.
Gus The Bust: Decades ago I was the ringmaster for The Dark Carnival, where demons fought men. Our champion took six hundred and sixty six souls. One more soul and we could have brought the end. The human champion of the last carnival, he stopped us you see. He trapped the demon in two masks, giving his life in the process. This, we thought, ended the Dark Carnival forever.
Styx: Luckily, we were able to find two cursed masks. The one I wear and the one we will force Mya to wear. Then, the time bomb goes off. The release of so many human souls will power these masks and bring back our champion!
Gus The Bust: And we will destroy everything!
Just as Gus finishes talking El Temerario arrives in style. Flying at breakneck speed, He slams directly into Gus causing the clown to explode to red, chunky bits. However...
Styx: You'll never understand. You brought us everything we need.
There's a spark as a second TARDIS appears! This one is different, it's carnival themed. Instead of blue lights, we get pink lights. And the thing is painted such obnoxious colors. The door slowly opens and first, TPK falls out. Then the wrestling clown known as Zany...
And finally, after those two, a second Gus The Bust!
Gus The Bust: Miss me, boys?

Out of the spark of energy appears a TARDIS. Smoke rises from around the TARDIS as the door slowly opens. Out walks Anna.
The timelord puts her hands to her waist and looks the carnival over. A week ago she had seen Carny Pro burning after the end of the world. She had wisly retreated. Still, if that was a vision of the future it was obvious something bad would happen very, very soon. Anna makes her way towards the midway after clicking a button on her key chain. There's a beep beep, as if from a car lock, as the TARDIS locks itself.
Anna walks for a few feet before stopping in her tracks. The camera pans to the side and we see Muffles the Rabbit standing face to face with Anna. Before we see too much the camera fades back to the ring.

-AND THE CHAMPIONSHIP HANGS OVERHEAD-
Toro Rojo, Jack Tillman and Mitsuo Shimada Vs Hijo de Sombra, Ryu Aka and Ryu Ao
TAG TEAM MATCH
Jack and Mitsuo shows their strips as a tag team, as do Ryu Bai. Red and Blue focus on Toro Rojo, delivering massive tag team moves. Hijo's style is complimentary to theirs, being face paced and methodical. Toro isn't a punk, though, and manages to take both members of Ryu Bai down after a few minutes of eating double drop kicks and striking moves. Tillman and Mitsuo focus their assault mainly on Hijo. Hijo, however, is used to the pains and just laughs every time he eats the canvas. The opening minutes are a basic tag team match, but once Toro takes out Ryu Bai things change.
Gus begins to make his way down the dirt path that leads to the ring. As Hijo is taking the assault, Gus swipes the SFT Championship! Hijo sees this but can be do little to give chase as he's currently stuck in an octopus stretch from Toro. Red and Blue decide enough is enough. They hit the ring, taking out the other team, and then give chase to Gus. Hijo follows. Eventually, Toro and The Dogs of War are declared winners. They aren't happy about it though. They also give chase.
Devin Hearst meets them on the way. He stops them and then points in the distance, towards the fun house Styx challenged others to meet him at.
-WINNERS: Toro Rojo, Jack Tillman and Mitsuo Shimada-

-RINGSIDE-
We cut to ringside. Zoe is standing there. Upon her face is a new luchador mask. It is her family tradition to wear the mask and now, as battle looms with Gus, Calvin and Styx, she wears the mask as a reminder of what she fights for. She stands there at ringside, taking in the fans and the scene as she readies herself. A match, then an assualt on a fun house. It was a regular day for her family. The camera pans back to reveal something else as well.
A full buffet of food. Sitting there, eating, is Redd Thunder! Zoe smirks. She outsmarted her opponents. Redd would be too busy eating his buffet to take part in the match. This would allow her to finish quickly and begin her assault. Of course, things are rarely that easy.

-SEGMENT-
On the midway Sombra is still giving chase to Gus. Ryu Bai is no where to be seen. Finch walks onto the scene. He takes one look at Gus, running with the SFT Championship in his arms, and Sombra, giving chase with full speed, and decideds to help Sombra. Gus is, after all, a creepy rapist clown. Finch begins to give chase. Sombra and Finch nearly catch Gus, but Gus runs as if he doesn't run our of energy. He takes a detour pass the food carts and ends up behind the carnival proper.
Gus The Bust: Can't catch me.
Gus smirks. In front of him is a lime green, clown themed helicopter. Finch and Sombra arrive just as Gus enters and begins to fly away.
Sombra: Dammit...
Finch grins and shakes his head. He reaches into the back of his pants and reveals a grappling hook! Sombra takes one look and grins. Sombra holds on to Finch's waist, Finch aims and throws the hook. It attaches to the bottom of the helicopter and two two begin flying through the air.
Finch: Hoooooooooooooooly...
The fans in attendance can no longer ignore these wild occurrences. Everyone looks up to watch the crazy scene. The helicopter makes it's way towards the funhouse.
We cut back to the ring where the ropes have been covered in barbed wire. Tiger Mask Red and Reptilian are making their way to the ring. The barbed wire was unexpected, but makes sense.

-THE TANGLED WEBS WE WEAVE-
CPW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
Reptilian and Tiger Mask Red vs Alfie Tenner and Rot Gut
BARBED WIRE MASSACRE TAG MATCH
Neither team expected to be facing in a barbed wire match. Alfie and Rot Gut will have to do this twice in one night. Both teams look focused and when the bell rings, all hell breaks lose. Alfie shoots Tiger Mask into the barbed wire, but TMR stops short to avoid hitting the wire. Reptilian locks up with Rot Gut at the opposite side of the ring. The two exchange grapples with Rot Gut taking Reptilian down with a massive headbutt. This leads to the two brawling as Alfie fights Tiger Mask with all he's worth.
Tiger does his best to avoid Alfie's beer bottle. Alfie was sure to bring it with him. Tiger Mask finally gets hit by the bottle in the side of the face and blood goes flying. This allows Alfie to shoot Tiger Mask into the barbed wire. The fans scream bloody murder as Tiger Mask comes off the barbed wire, back bleeding. Following this Tiger Mask loses his damn mind. He goes in and brawls with Alfie, forcing the carny to drop his weapon. There's biting, kicking and blood between the two.
Rot Gut has been taken down by Reptilian. Reptilian manages to push Rot Gut against the ropes, opening up his back on the barbed wire. Alfie takes down TMR. He brawls with Reptilian for a few minutes. Reptilian manages to spit green mist in Alfie's eyes. Alfie goes down. Reptilian is the only man standing. He goes to get TMR up. Both teams are up. They charge, and we have more brawling to the delight of the CPW fans. Eventually Rot Gut is thrown so hard against the barbed wire covered ropes that he becomes stuck and cannot escape. This allows Tiger Mask Red to sweep Alfie's legs. He grabs Alfie in a crippler crossface. Reptilian hits the ropes and boots Alfie's face.
All it takes is three seconds for Tiger Mask Red to pin Alfie and pick up the win, and the tag team titles!

-MAIN EVENT-
CPW BARBED WIRE MASSACRE CHAMPIONSHIP
Alfie Tenner vs Rot Gut vs Caleb Houston vs Mistah Jay vs Muffles vs TPK
BARBED WIRE MASSACRE MATCH
No rest for the wicked. Tiger Mask Red and Reptilian leave the ring area, walking towards the Fun House in the distance. Alfie stands down, Rot Gut can't escape the barbed wire. Their opponens make their way to the ring, astonished at the sight before them. Of course, Caleb Houston is quick to grab a kendo stick before entering the ring. He looks at it for a minute and then he feels something inside him change. He has become one with his weapon. He takes the weapon and uses it against every opponent displaying something of a human weapon feel.
It only lasts for a quick burst before Mistah Jay takes him down. As the two brawl, TPK pulls Rot Gut from the barbed wire and goes for a pin. Rot Gut kicks up. Alfie is back up. Rot Gut and Alfie work together to punish TPK. Mistah Jay makes his way to where they are after minutes of brawling with Caleb. He takes Alfie out from behind with a back stabber. Alfie headbutts TPK taking him down. More brawling. The action continues in the ring for about ten minutes. Before long every wrestler in the ring is covered in blood, having felt the sting of the barbed wire.
Mistah Jay is down. Zoe is watching from the crowd. Jay up. Muffles comes from nowhere and spears Jay back to the mat. He picks up Alfie, who by now is covered in his own blood, and wallops him with a huge right hand. Jay comes frm nowhere with a rollup on Muffles. Two count. TPK tosses Muffles into the barbed wire. Muffles is protected by his costume. He feels nothing. Caleb is up. He takes everyone down again with his kendo stick.
Alfie is up. Everyone is down except Alfie and Caleb. Caleb comes in with his kendo stick. He doesn't notice the bottle in Alfie's hand. Alfie swings and the bottle breaks over Caleb's head. Alfie pins and wins the championship at thirty five minutes!

-ENDING-
About twenty minutes after the main event....
The moment of truth. We open to a large field about half a mile away from the carnival proper. In the middle of this great, dusty field is what appears to be a three story, armored funhouse surrounded by clowns and luchadors. Clearly these are the henchmen of Styx and Gus the Bust. Spotlight shine down from the roof of the funhouse where a lime green helicopter is positioned. In the distance, far enough that they can't be seen by the henchmen, stands Tiger Mask Red, Jack Talbot, Reptilian, Zoe Chaos and Holly Hammerstein. There's a sound behind them and the group turns to see Nirvana driving towards them.
In the passanger seat is a woman covered in black body glitter from head to toe. Some might reconize her as the infamous Aguardente Ayano. Once the vehicle Nirvana is driving reaches the group, the car stops. Nirvana and his passenger leave the car meet up with the group. Tiger Mask Red gives Nirvana a nasty look. In his mind he is split. If he wasn't forced to work with Nirvana in this situation, he'd probably be attacking him right now.
Zoe Chaos: How are we supposed to get in there? The place is surrounded by clowns and cartel.
Aguardente Ayano: ¡Por el frente!
Nirvana: We brought help.
From behind comes a massive armored Jeep. Sitting inside the passanger seat is an armored Lilith Evans. Driving the jeep is Devin Hearst. In the back, managing the mounted gun, is Jack Tillman. Finally, in the backseat saying a haiku before battle is international superstar Mitsuo Shimada. The group watches as the vehicle speeds towards the front of the armored funhouse.
Devin Hearst: Let loose the Dogs of War!
Tillman begins to fire the mounted gun as a distraction, sending clowns and cartel members scattering. Mitsuo, finished with his haiku, leans out of the back window. In his arms is a rocket launcher! Mitsuo focuses, aims and fire a rocket. It hits the front door and causes a massive explosion that blows a hole in the wall of the funhouse. It's not long before Nirvana and company follow through, arriving on the scene in Nirvana's car. The group exits the car and stands shoulder to shoulder with the Dogs of War.
Tillman: Attack!
Incognito comes running from the broken wall, only to meet Lilith on the outside. Lilith smirks and holds a pistol up to Incognito's forehead. There's a loud pop, signaling the death of Incognito, as we fade back to the midway.
-MEANWHILE-
On the midway we find Avery Jackson surrounded by clowns. All hell has broken loose here. Avery has a baseball bat in her hands. She goes to take out a clown but gets dog tackled by five of the bastards. Just as it seems like she might lose there's a loud roar in the distance. It's the tiger Avery released at the start of the show. The tiger comes in, taking out four of the clowns holding Avery down with vicious claw swipes. Avery is back up. Avery takes her bat and finishes the job on the last clown.
Further down the midway we see Vertigo and El Temerario standing on top of a large building, watching as the chaos takes place.
Temerario: I need to help.
Vertigo: Not yet.
Temerario: But...
Vertigo places his hand on El Temerario's forehead. At that moment light shoots from El Temerario's eyes. In his mind he sees his father and grandfatherm proud warriors, battling the demons. He sees and he understands. In an instance all of Gus' plans become obvious to El Temerario. Gus seeks to renew the Dark Carnival, which his family has fought against for generations, with two masks. The two masks actually house the spirit of a demon champion El Temerario's father gave his life to defeat.
But he would also need a great sacfrice. Something changes in El Temerario. He begins to float, like Superman. Vertigo watches as everything comes together for the luchador. El Temerario begins to fly towards the funhouse
El Temerario: I AM EL TEMERARIO AND I AM A FREE MAN!
-MEANWHILE-
On the roof of the fun house, Sombra and Finch are standing off with Gus, Styx and a group of clowns. The two work together as a perfect unit, taking out every clown bodyguard Gus throws at them Sombra manages to take his SFT Championship back from Gus but Styx just laughs. He points towards the Ferris wheel on the midway.
There is a light, as if someone teleported in with a Tardis. Then they two see it. A massive time bomb. The fans in attendance scatter. There's a loud ticking sound and we can tell that if this things blows up, the entire carnival is going with it.
Finch: Oh my god!
Gus The Bust: God doesn't exist here, only demons.
Styx: Neither of you understand.
The two look towards Styx and Gus as if wanting answers.
Gus The Bust: Decades ago I was the ringmaster for The Dark Carnival, where demons fought men. Our champion took six hundred and sixty six souls. One more soul and we could have brought the end. The human champion of the last carnival, he stopped us you see. He trapped the demon in two masks, giving his life in the process. This, we thought, ended the Dark Carnival forever.
Styx: Luckily, we were able to find two cursed masks. The one I wear and the one we will force Mya to wear. Then, the time bomb goes off. The release of so many human souls will power these masks and bring back our champion!
Gus The Bust: And we will destroy everything!
Just as Gus finishes talking El Temerario arrives in style. Flying at breakneck speed, He slams directly into Gus causing the clown to explode to red, chunky bits. However...
Styx: You'll never understand. You brought us everything we need.
There's a spark as a second TARDIS appears! This one is different, it's carnival themed. Instead of blue lights, we get pink lights. And the thing is painted such obnoxious colors. The door slowly opens and first, TPK falls out. Then the wrestling clown known as Zany...
And finally, after those two, a second Gus The Bust!
Gus The Bust: Miss me, boys?
