The video ends and pyro shoots from the stage. The camera pans through the crowd of cheering APW fans before stopping on the commentators, Darren Harvey and Johnny Chase Harvey: Welcome Everyone to Thursday Night OverdriveChase: I’m Johnny Chase along side Darren Harvey and what a night we have in store for all of youHarvey: We begin the night of with a special announcement by President Jeff himself regarding, the Survive and Conquer match!Chase: This is huge! Look at all those APW superstars out here right now waiting to hear from the boss!We see APW superstars that include C.J Gates alongside his partner Blade, Branden Harvey and BDC amongst many others. Virtually every superstar including the world champion, Sally Talfourd is present. Suddenly, the lights dim down and a familiar entrance theme blasts the stereo as the former APW champion and APW employee, Level-One steps out on stage—the APW roster immediately turns their focus to Level-One standing behind them as the crowd boos. Harvey: What the hell is this? Level-One isn't supposed to be out here! He doesn't even work here anymore as far as I'm concerned!Chase: Well, he's free agent now Harvey. He doesn't need to abide by APW rules anymore. Though, I'm pretty sure security is a sucker to him these days... not to say, we see any signs of it slowing him down!Level-One is dressed in casual street gear wearing an Anti-APW shirt. The APW logo shown on the back of his sweater has a big red x over it with the words ''Free agent'' underneath. This logo is read by everyone as he walks past them pushing anyone star who stands in his way to the side until a clear path is forged. He stops at Sally Talfourd who stands in-front of him with the world heavyweight championship around her waist but after a few words back and forth she too relents and steps to the side shooting Level-One a look that could very well kill a mortal man. He continues down the ramp, walks around the ring and demands a microphone which Paige doesn't hesitate to hand over like she would to a armed robber asking for her purse. He enters the ring with a grin a mile wild across his face as he soaks in the crowds jeers. The crowd starts a ''traitor'' chant as Level-One tauntingly talks over them. Level-One: I'm sure you are all out here to hear what your boss has to say about the Survive and Conquer match but I regret to inform you that I made it all up! President Jeff is nothing more then a figure head around here and has no say and very little power. Well, maybe he has power over you due to fact he's the driving force behind you putting food in your families mouth but to me he's as unimportant as let's say, the tag team titles?The crowd boos as we see CJ Gates and Blade looking up at Level-One clearly feeling slighted by his disrespectful comments. Harvey: Oh, come on. CJ Gates and Blade have nothing to do with Level-One! That was just uncalled for. I don't know how Level-One plans to make friends by trashing them first!Chase: You have to admit, it was funny. Level-One raises a single finger in the air. Level-One: Though, that really is besides the point. The fact is, you are all out here tonight because I feel it's my duty to inform each and everyone of you how things are going to go around here leading up to the survive and conquer match. As a former APW member myself; I'm aware how you leeches work. I'm aware of the silent agreements and secret handshakes. I know that each one of you would rather see one of your own win if it means it isn't you doing the winning. And I know much like last year; us free agents are the targets on your radar. Well, this year it's going to be different, APW. This year the free agents... I as free agent won't sit back on the defence. We'll be on the offence. We are going to be the attacking force. We are going to be the dominate force who are feared, who are the favourites to win it and we will not be seen as the weak, feeble underdogs—who barely stand a chance on paper!Members of the APW roster look at each-other confused as to what Level-One is talking about which only heightens Level-One's mood for the better as he's more then elated to let them in on his little secret. Level-One: So over the past few days, I've been scouting, I've been looking very closely at who has the spirit, the honour and the courage to fight alongside me. I have been pouring over hundreds of tapes, analyzing many of free agents rumoured to take part in the Survive and Conquer match and one specific man caught my attention. This man understands that a universal understanding amongst the free agents are a necessary element of survival in a match that bases itself off the numbers game. So without further ado... please welcome... James Logan!Coheed and Cambira - "Hearshot Kid Disaster" blasts the PA system as all eyes turn to James Logan who reluctantly steps out on stage. The fans don't treat the newcomer with much of an reaction as James ''Cypher'' Logan looks at the myriad of APW superstars collectively loitering on the APW ramp like a dear caught in a set of headlights. He doesn't move as several APW stars look at the young kid peculiarly, it isn't until prompting from Level-One inside the ring, with a wild hand motion that James Logan finally puts his legs into motion as he marches down the ramp, paying those around him, very little attention. James Logan joins Level-One in the ring. Harvey: Is it just me or does this James Logan kid look a little awkward?Chase: Are you going to hate on everyone who ever associates with our former world champion? You know, I'm starting to think you were the reason Level-One became a free agent in the first place!James ''Cypher'' Logan stands beside Level-One who points at his new alliance member. Level-One: This is James ''Cypher'' Logan. A young upstart with a world full of potential. All he needs is the right guidance and one day, we have a future world champion on our hands. Here is man, that would surely go unnoticed in a match like Survive and Conquer, perhaps even tossed over the top rope before he had a chance to show his full potential—but not this time. This time, Justice will be served and James Logan here will get the respect, the hype and quite frankly the camera time he rightfully deserves! James Logan... tell them how you feel about this!Level-One hands James Logan the microphone. James Logan slowly lifts the microphone and humbly states his cause. James Logan: This is a great opportunity. I want to win the survive and conquer match and be a world champion one day. Thank you all...Level-One retrieves the microphone and scratches his head. Level-One: So, he's not a big talker... who cares! I'll do the talking and James Logan here will be following the orders. That's what team work is about. Though, don't for a second think the buck stops at James Logan. It's why all you APW superstars out here today. I am urging each and every one of you to consider leaving the APW and becoming an independent both in spirit, mind and physically and do what's right for a change rather then playing servitude as some type of corporate whore! You join me and Logan here... and you go straight to the top. Who's with me!?The crowd boos. Several members of the APW roster roll their eyes and blow Level-One off, immediately walking off to the back. Link looks at Level-One, grins but too turns around and walks away, disappearing behind the curtain. The rest follow. The last one out there on the ramp, is APW and IWC duel superstar, Branden Harvey. Level-One: So you want to be a champion, huh!? Now we're talking kid!Branden Harvey shrugs Level-One off and too walks up the ramp, as the crowd gives Branden Harvey a huge pop for his action. Level-One clearly slighted grits his teeth and begins to rant to his new partner in crime, James Logan. Harvey: It looks like Level-One didn't get the response he's looking for—not everyone is a traitor like he is!Chase: Branden Harvey and every other APW superstar that walked out of here just now have made the biggest mistakes of their lifes mark my words!Level-One looks to exit the ring but looks back to see James Logan staring off into space. Level-One re-enters the ring and nudges James Logan on his shoulder but James Logan merely points towards the stage where a young man stands with a microphone in hand. The man is no older then twenty, and looks like your atypical, basement-dwelling, fanboy nerd. He lifts the microphone to his mouth as he walks down the ramp. Smart Mark: Level-One, I don't think you are aware that you've just changed the internet-wrestling-community for all eternity, after your epic announcement here tonight! I'm sure you don't know me, but I know all about you and even know a little bit of James Logan as well. I know that you're a former three time APW world champion, the experts 2008 extreme tournament winner and a two time True Expert. I'm also aware of the main-events you've main-evented, the women you have shagged (very nice by the way!) and hall the several hall of fames you've been inducted into at such a young age...Level-One cuts off the Smart Mark. Level-One: Security, get this fool out of here!Level-One says shouting into the crowd. A security team wearing yellow jackets climb of the barricade and look to cut off the Smart Mark before he can get into the ring, but he raises a hand in the air. Smart Mark: I've been granted access into this building by President Jeff himself, don't you worry Level-One. To be quite honest as quite the fan of yours on every message board that isn't run by complete noobs it's shame you haven't been as welcoming as I thought you'd been...Level-One: What the hell do you want?Smark Mark grins as he enters the ring, as security stands back outside of it watching on carefully, given the smart mark wasn't an in-ring competitor. Smart Mark: I know someone who can give this quite a thing, a boost. A man that is looking to regain his spotlight at the misfortune of the APW talent. And I'm sure he would just love to work with you given Mr. Cryptic—James Logan steps aside and my buddy becomes your right hand man. Your go-to guy. Almost like batman is to robin... without the nerdy capes! Level-One scoffs at Smart Mark as he looks to James Logan who doesn't respond in any specific manner. Level-One turns his attention back to Smark Mark and gives way to the idea. Level-One: Who are we talking about?Smart Mark smiles as he takes two steps to the side and points at the ramp. Smart Mark: Why, none other then... RYAN RUCKUS!"I Hope You Die" -Bloodhound gang attacks the PA system as the crowd treats Ryan Ruckus with a mixed reaction. Harvey: I can't believe this! It's Ryan Ruckus! Last years runner up in the survive and conquer match against Victor Hades!Chase: Victor Hades and Ryan Ruckus both eliminated Level-One who made it to the triple threat round of the match! This is huge! But I thought Level One and Ruckus couldn't stand each other...Ryan Ruckus enters the ring as both men immediately rush each-other like bulls, their foreheads clashing against each-other. A brawl breaks out in the ring! Ryan Ruckus and Level-One throws lefts and rights into each-others faces as neither gives a go. James Logan doesn't know how to react to this and doesn't. Ryan Ruckus jumps ontop of Level-One for a Thesz press and starts raining down left and rights into the face of Level-One! Quickly, the Level-One is able to reverse the position and get on top and rain fists of fury down into the face of Ryan Ruckus! Ryan Ruckus is able to escape the confines of the dog fight as both scramble up to their feet and stare at each-other as the crowd treats them both with a thunderous applause. Harvey: Our APW fans want to see these two guys tear each-other apart!Ruckus and Level One both draw back ready to strike again. They turn to the crowd, with a look that seems to say, 'You want some more?' The crowd roars, but then the two men drop their fists and smirk. Level-One extends a hand. Ruckus doesn't hesitate to accept as the two shake and raise each-others' arms inside the ring, to signify their partnership. Smart Mark, has marked out to the point of nearly losing consciousness as he falls back up against the ropes. The fans cheers now resorts back to boos as Level-One reaches over and lifts James Logan's hand as well getting him in on the action as well. Smart Mark picks up the microphone... Smart Mark: Folks there you have it! The soon to be most dominate force in professional wrestling. And darn sure the odds-on favorites for Survive and Conquer. The implosion of the world wide interwebs is here. This... is the Free Agency, baby! Woo-hoo!And inside the ring, the Free Agency, celebrates. Harvey: I can't believe what we've just witnessed. Two of the top three competitors in last years survive and conquer match up have aligned themselves, with and with Victor Hades out of the picture for so long, who's going to stop them!?Chase: Nobody, Harvey! The Free Agency has been born and who knows what they have in store for the rest of us leading up to the pay-per-view... they're not going to have any alligence to anyone but themselves and that makes them a dangerous threat. After all, the free agents out number APW competitors greatly!Overdrive goes to its first commercial

(The scene opens up inside of the Exchange Rate locker room where we see C.J. Gates sitting in a chair with his head back, Rico Casteel sitting in a chair against the wall, arms folded over his chest, eyes closed, and Blade is sitting by a table, a few pieces of paper scattered over the top of it. Gates is wearing his wrestling attire while Rico and Blade are wearing street clothes.) C.J. Gates: Derek, Derek, Derek. Where oh where could that Derek be. I thought for sure I would fish him out with that little spiel I threw at him. I thought for sure I'd pull him out of hiding. I mean, I gave him stuff to work with, didn't I?Blade: You definitely did.C.J. Gates: So where is he? Man. He's reminding me of Cooper Conrad. Remember him?Blade: Vaguely. Didn't you have a dream about him or something?C.J. Gates: No, no, no. I had a dream about myself chasing myself, but the second me turned out to be my half brother O.J. Blade: That's messed. C.J. Gates: Tell me about it. The worst part of it all? I hate getting the silent treatment. It's like they think they are better than me and don't need to give me the benefit of hearing their voice. Of hearing that they actually care about me. You know?Blade: Oh, I know. I've been in that same boat before. Look at our tag team, they always consider me to be the weak link and focus on you. C.J. Gates: Which isn't fair because you hold your own inside of the ring. You've got my back. Blade: Exactly. Beautiful Disaster is going to understand that I am more than just a fan favorite. They will see that I am one equal half of this team. Do you think they realize it? Do you think they actually realize that they're lining up for a loss? C.J. Gates: Nope. I doubt it. Just like Derek. They all think they are lined up for wins against you and I. They call foul on experience. On being unable to cut the cord. But no! (Gates springs to his feet.) C.J. Gates: We are a great tag team, and we have proven it. Every single team that they have thrown into our path we have dealt with. And they still doubt us? It's ludicrous!Blade: And even then, we are capable of fighting on our own if need be. We both started on our own, we are both capable of holding our own. You have gone toe to toe with both Sally and Level One, and did a very good job of holding your own. C.J. Gates: Exactly. (Gates sighs and shakes his head, retaking his seat.) C.J. Gates: Why does everyone hold us down?Blade: It's probably the nature of tag team wrestling. They figure we can't do anything if there aren't two of us. C.J. Gates: Bullshit. I'm tired of it. So this week....I am going to make an example of Derek. (At this point, Rico opens one eye.) C.J. Gates: I'm going to show him, Level One, President Jeff, Sally Talfourd, Alphabet Soup...That the Texas Tornado is on the rise, and there is no stopping my from achieving that goal. Blade: Just don't lose sight of the other picture. C.J. Gates: Don't worry, I haven't. I'm still looking at our title defense against Beautiful Disaster. Our successful title defense against Beautiful Disaster. Don't worry. The Exchange Rate is going to make another tag team wish that they hadn't challenged us for the titles.Rico: So cliched...C.J. Gates: No one asked you. Just go back to sleep. (Rico smirks and closes his eye.) C.J. Gates: 2011 is our year, Blade. That is something that I will not forget. (The scene fades to ringside.) Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!"Champion" by Ace Hood hits the loud speakers. Red and black lights begin to turn and Matt Ward makes his way out to the ring. He climbs into the ring and waits for the ring announcer to introduce him. Paige: Introducing first, from Chicago, Illinois, weighing in tonight at two hundred and forty pounds.... MATT WARD!Matt Ward raises his arms in the air. The fans boo loudly. He kicks the ropes in response. Paige: AND his opponent!"Fuel" by Metallica hits the speakers. Branden Harvey walks through the curtain. He raises his right arm in the air, looking around at the cheering fans as he does it. He sprints to the ring and slides in. He gets on the middle turnbuckle and raises his right arm in the air again, while looking at the cheering fans once more before back flipping to the mat. Paige: Weighing in at One Hundred and Forty pounds, from Sacramento, California, "SUPER SONIC" BRANDEN HARVEY!Matt Ward vs. Branden Harvey
The bell rings and the match is on. They lock up and Matt Ward puts on a headlock. Branden Harvey reaches for the ropes but Matt Ward pulls him back in. He grinds in the headlock. Harvey reaches for the ropes but can't make it. He calls for the crowd to cheer him on. The crowd gets behind him and he gives him an elbow to the breadbasket, followed by another and another. He escapes the hold. He runs towards the ropes and bounces off, running into him. Matt Ward doesn't fall down. He goes for another attempt and Matt Ward staggers a bit. He backs up and runs towards Matt Ward. Matt Ward uses his momentum and throws him out of the ring and onto the arena floor!
Chase: That will show him.
The referee lays in the count.
1 . . . 2 . . . Branden Harvey rolls back into the ring. Matt Ward grabs him and irish whips him into the ropes. Branden Harvey reverses it and sends Matt Ward into the ropes.

The referee catches him and makes him stop. Branden Harvey grabs him and snap mares him. He gives him a stiff kick to the back. He lifts him up and slams him to the mat hard. He goes for the cover.
1 . . . . 2 . . .

Harvey grabs him and puts him in the tree of woe. He takes a few steps back towards the opposite corner and charges at his opponent with a sliding baseball kick to the face. Ward is hurt. Harvey grabs him and pulls him in. He lifts him up and power bombs him in the turnbuckles. He goes for the cover.

Sally Talfourd walks down the backstage hallway, preparing to enter the action packed arena through the curtains when she's stopped by Level-One dead in her tracks. Level-One stands firm with his arms folded in-front of her chest as Sally Talfourd rolls her eyes and tries to step around Level-One he takes one big leap and blocks her off, as he grins ear to ear. Level-One: Miss, Sally Talfourd. How's it going champ? You know after I heard you were teaming up with Pence Weatherlight I couldn't help but wonder how awkward the entire thing must be. So I need to ask. How does it feel to team up with a guy like Pence Weatherlight?Sally Talfourd: You mean compared to potentially being teamed up with a pathetic slime ball like you Level-One? It's great. It's amazing. It's the best thing that could have ever happened to me. Now excuse me there's an audience full of fans waiting to cheer me on...Sally Talfourd once again tries to push past Level-One but he grabs her by the arm. Level-One: Well, I was just asking... considering the fact that last week you were attacked by some mysterious masked man. You don't find it at all odd that a week later you're teaming up with Pence Weatherlight the man who has pulled the same schtick in the APW, less then a year ago?Sally Talfourd shoves Level-One's hand off her bicep with her own free hand as she props the APW world championship up on her shoulder. Sally Talfourd: How do I know you weren't the masked man? In fact, I have no doubts that it was you. You can stand the fact that you couldn't beat me at Christmas Chaos and have everything to gain by attacking me with my back turned like the coward you are...Level-One points at himself before laughing at the ridiculousness of the accusation made by Sally Talfourd. His tone changes to a far more aggressive-assertive one as he postures up in Sally Talfourds face. Level-One: You think I need to hide my face with a mask to attack you? That's fucking foolish and you know it. Face it, Sally. If I wanted too; I could attack you right now and there isn't a damn thing the President Jeff or the APW can do to stop me. I don't play by these rules anymore, don't you understand this? The fact is; I didn't attack you last week. Which means, someone is playing games. Someone is trying to steal MY spotlight and take my rightful as the number one contendership to that world title. And let me tell you, I take great offence to that...Sally Talfourd looks behind your shoulder and see's both Ryan Ruckus and James Logan standing right behind her. Sally Talfourd takes a deep breath and readies herself for whatever to come. Sally Talfourd: You want at me? Then take your best shot, Level-One. Show everyone how much of coward you really are. You won't be proving anything to anyone. I'll still be the APW world champion and you'll be the guy who couldn't get the job done by himself...Level-One lunges forward pulling back just before his fist makes contact with her face in an attempt to sike Sally Talfourd out. She bites. Ryan Ruckus can't help but giggle like an immature school child as he tries to egg a reaction out of James Logan. Level-One reaches over Sally Talfourds shoulder to high five Ryan Ruckus standing behind her. Sally Talfourd is livid but has no logical option but to stand firm and allow cooler heads to prevail. Level-One: I'm not going to beat you up, Sally. I am not going to resort to your pathetic pre-game tactics. I'm better then that. The old Level-One is gone. I'm all about justice now. And the justice is going to come inside the ring, when the free agents are the last one's standing and the APW heroes are tossed over the top rope like yesterdays trash. Take no offence. I have still have a heart for the APW and all it's fine competitors but I realized you truly don't know what you got until it's gone—and that the APW no longer has me, they'll never want to let me go ever again...Level-One reaches over and pretends to dust off Sally Talfourds world championship to which she violently tugs away to Level-One's pleasure. Level-One: As for that Masked Man attacked poor little ol' you last week? He'll be taken care of after your main-event match against the beautiful disaster. The Free Agency, knows what's up. We know who was really behind it and this person will have to pay for what they did to you last week. Sally Talfourd: I don't need your little mafia handling my dirty work. It's none of your business. Stay out of it, Level-One.Level-One closes his eyes and shakes his head back and forth in disgust. Level-One: Yes it is! I'm a man of justice and there was no rightful clause for your attack. Think of me kinda like a mafia don, right? I could care less that one of my guys killed your entire family and burnt down your house. It's the fact that one of my guys killed your entire family, burnt down your house and never even called me to ask if it was okay to do so, first. Ryan Ruckus leans over Sally Talfourds shoulder. Ryan Ruckus: The motherucker would've said yes...Level-One shrugs his shoulders. Level-One: Exactly. Which is why he should have asked! Sally, you maybe world champion and you may have a lot of leverage around here but at the end of the day, we don't play by your rules. We don't answer to anyone. We don't need to tow any company line. And because of it... we're able to call our own shots with no fear of repercussions and consequences and we can get away with it because the balance of the universe tilts in our favour. Now you go out there like good little corporate whore and let the big boys handle grown up business. And if you get in our way, you're going to get hurt. Okay?Sally Talfourd: You aren't going to get away with this...Sally Talfourd says looking up at Level-One as she brushes past him and walks off, ready to compete in the main-event match. Ryan Ruckus nudges Level-One... Ryan Ruckus: Let's say me and her were the last two... who do you give the rucking edge too? Be honest. Level-One: Logical fallacy. It's going to be me and you... final two.L1 & R2 shake on it as they turn to see James Logan standing by, watching on; intently. Ryan Ruckus: Ruck.Level-One: Did I say final two? I meant final three! We got this guys!Level-One slaps James Logan on the back as James Logan nods head head acknowledging his stablemates as the three engage in post-match planning as we fade to ringside. Paige: The Following contest is scheduled for one fallThe lights in the arena go off as red lights flash in a form of a cross infront of the entrance. "Second Coming" by Juelz Santana suddenly blasts through the speakers as smoke fills the ramp and Criss Cassidy slides through the curtains and onto the main stage. Paige: Introducing first, from Brooklyn New York, Weighing in at 205 pounds….CRISS CASSIDYThe lights come back on as Cassidy makes his way to the ring dressed in a dark red trench coat with the hood over his head. A large diamond chain with a holy cross pendant hangs from his neck as Cassidy walks up the steps and slides into the ring Harvey: Last week, Biggs issued an Open Challenge and Criss Cassidy answered it.Chase: Criss Cassidy just made the biggest mistake of his career last week.The crowds goes quiet as Shamans Harvest - Broken Dreams blares through the arena, the silence turns into loud boos from males and big cheers from females as Diamante Valentine Walks With His Head Held High Wearing John Morrison Style Shades Paige: And his opponent, from Venace Italy, he is the APW Xtreme Champion, DIAMANTE VALENTINEAs Diamante comes down to the ring, out of from the back come running XXX Fire. He Nails Diamante from behind, sending him to the ground. Triple X pulls him up and brings him to ringside and throws him right into the ring steps. Harvey: I think this is payback for what happened last week with Diamante attacking XXX Fire after his match after becoming the number one contender for the Xtreme TitleTriple X grabs Diamante and gives him the XXX (Spinning Double Underhook Facebuster) on the outside floor. Diamante looks knocked out as Triple X lifts up Diamante’s dead body and rolls him into the ring. Triple X heads towards the back Chase: There can’t be a match now, Diamante is in no condition to wrestle after that coward attack by XXX Fire. Cassidy looks at the ref and the ref calls for the bell Criss Cassidy Vs Diamante Valentine
Diamante isn’t moving and Criss nudges him with his foot. Criss then drags Diamante near the corner and climbs up. Cassidy then leaps off with the Nightmare and hits it (Shooting Star Press into 5 Star Frog Splash). Cassidy covers 1 . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . 3
Winner: Criss Cassidy Chase: I can’t believe that referee started this match after Triple X attacked DiamanteHarvey: Diamante sent a message to him last week and Triple X sent it back this week."Second Coming" by Juelz Santana begins to play over the PA as Criss celebrates his easy victory and we go to commercial.

The camera cuts to backstage, where Criss Cassidy is in his locker room following his victory over Diamante Valentine. As he sits on the locker room bench, there's a knock on the door. Cassidy: Come in...Biggs walks into the locker room dressed in his street clothes with the APW Overdrive Championship slung over his shoulder, and his signature shades on his face. Cassidy gets up with a start as Biggs steps in, but Biggs immediately gets his hands up, showing that he means no harm. Biggs: Whoa, whoa, Cassidy! I'm not here to start any trouble. I'm just here to tell you personally that at Survive and Conquer, you will be getting a shot at my APW Overdrive Championship. But before you get too excited, there's some conditions involved.Cassidy: Like what?Biggs: Well, considering what you did to me last week, not to mention how you won your match against Diamante here tonight, I've decided that since you seem to like to take advantage of surprise attacks, I had it written into the match contract that you cannot physically attack me unless we're in a match or you're physically provoked! If you even so much as lay a finger on me, your title opportunity disappears! I know your greatest sin, Cassidy, that of rage, and as much as you try to tell yourself that it's a righteous anger, well, I think both of us know better than that! You aren't half the man of God you claim to be, Cassidy, rather, you're a man of fraud!This comment angers Cassidy, and he cocks his fist, but holds back. Biggs: That's what I thought, Cassidy. Just remember the words of your lord, Cassidy, He who lives by the sword, shall die by the sword! Let's hope for your sake that you can show some semblance of restraint over the next few weeks. Ciao.Biggs smirks as he exits the locker room, while Cassidy stands there fuming. APW cuts back out to the arena, where Nicky Paige is standing in the ring. Paige: The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall, and is your APW Overdrive Main Event!Loud cheers can be heard from the crowd at this announcement. "Look Alive, Sunshine" That one phrase echoes through the arena as everything goes black. Video footage of a red sunset burning over the Arizona skyline appears on the screen through a thin layer of static. While that happens, Dr Death Defying continues his radio call in that same weird, echoey, staticy voice... “Look alive, Sunshine 109 in the sky but the pigs won't quit You're here with me: Dr. Death Defying I'll be your surgeon, your proctor, your helicopter Pumpin' out the slaughtermatic sounds to keep you alive A system failure for the masses, empty matter for the master plan Louder than God's revolver and twice as shiny” The sun seems to get brighter and brighter, almost blindingly bright red until it bursts, the arena washed in crimson light that seemingly colors the air as a result. “This one's for all of you rock'n'rollers All you crash queens and motor babies, Listen u...” A golden tornado blasts through the red and hits the front of the screen, shattering it as "Awake and Alive" by Skillet replaces the weird noise. Gold and red spotlights swirl over the assembled crowd as Brandon and Kaycee Young come out from behind the curtain and onto the stage. Brandon is wearing a sleeveless hooded jacket with a flaming sword piercing through the Nextwave Autobot logo, the hood obscuring his face, and black pants with the same design running down the sides, but with with "Y O U N G G U N" written down each side, with the G and N of the "GUN" written above and below the U in YOUNG making a cross shape, written down each side in fiery gold font while his wife is wearing a pair of black bootcut spandex pants covered in a screen-print of feathers paired with a sports-bra-like top of the same material, a bright red sleeveless trenchcoat with the Nextwave Autobot logo on the back framed with a pair of angel's wings. Brandon is bouncing and bounding around much as he always does… and it turns out that his energy is infectious, since it has his wife doing the same thing, the duo criss-crossing the stage as they pump up the crowd. Meeting up in the center, Brandon smirks as he hauls his wife into a kiss while gold sparks rain down upon them. After the last of the pyro has fallen, the embrace ends, Kaycee blushing a little as she and her husband make their way down the ramp, slapping the hands of the fans as they go. Paige: Making their way to the ring first, at a combined weight of 377 pounds, from Tucson, Arizona, Brandon and Kaycee Young, The Beautiful Disaster!Harvey: The Beautiful Disaster have already made quite the splash here in APW, winning a #1 Contenders' match for a shot at The Exchange Rate's Tag Team Titles!Chase: That should be a good match once it takes place, but Brandon and Kaycee have got to make sure they're not looking ahead to their title opportunity, because tonight, they face the APW Heavyweight Champion and a very pissed off Pence Weatherlight!Brandon races to the ring before Kaycee, hopping up onto the apron with his back against the ropes. As Kaycee follows him down he grabs her and pulls her up onto the apron, and then holds the ropes open as any gentlemen should before sliding in himself. They both hit a turnbuckle and play to the crowd before the song fades out. The Titantron bursts to static as the lights all dim down and begin to flash different colors at random, the fans turn their eyes to the entrance ramp, as all the light go out. A voice comes out over the speakers saying "Baby don't fear the Reaper." and then the lights come on. "Everything" by Pillar hits the speakers now and the lights begin to flicker red, white, and blue. The fans all begin to cheer as Pence emerges on to the Entrance ramp wearing a red, white, and blue vest with a pair of black and blue shorts, he salutes the fans who all begin to chant "Mr. Main Event". Paige: And their opponents, first, weighing in at 250 pounds, from Hershey, Pennsylvania, “The Reaper” Pence Weatherlight!Harvey: This is the first we've seen of Pence since he lost the Overdrive Championship to Biggs at Christmas Chaos. He can't be in a good mood, that's for sure!Chase: Pence hasn't really dealt with adversity well in the past, at least in my opinion, but we're going to see how his neck is holding up. I hope Kaycee and Brandon accidentally break it!Harvey: You sleaze bag! How can you wish injury upon somebody!?Pence makes his way down to the ring, slapping hands, and taking poses so that the fans can take pictures of him. He finally makes it into the ring and then jumps up on to one of the turnbuckles and flexes. He then jumps down and repeats the process on the opposite sides turnbuckle, before finally jumping down, and going to the middle, he begins to pace looking at the entrance ramp, awaiting his opponent. The crowd is buzzing with anticipation for the coming match. On cue, the lights take on a blue tinge and 'Starstrukk' hits the speakers. This sets the crowd off: everyone knows who this is leading up to. As the song bursts to life, out races Sally Talfourd, racing to the front of the stage. Raising her hands to the crowd, she kicks her leg and heads towards the ring, slapping hands with the crowd that hangs over the rails for her. Paige: And his partner, weighing in at 140 pounds, from Seattle, Washington, she is the APW Heavyweight Champion of the World, “The Last Magician” Sally Talfourd!Harvey: Sally Talfourd was having a heck of a match last week with BDC until she was brutally attacked by the Masked Man! Since then, the big question has been just who is this mystery man!?Chase: I wouldn't be surprised if it was Pence Weatherlight! It was him last time we had a masked man sauntering about here in APW!Sally stands at the base of the steps to the ring, waving to the crowd as she is announced. When that's done, she dashes up the steps, hoists herself over the top ring and bounces to the centre of the ring. Poses for the crowd as the lights return to normal and the music fades out. The crowd still cheers for the adorable Sally as she starts to stretch for the match. Brandon and Pence head to their respective corners as the ref calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING! The Beautiful Disaster vs. Sally Talfourd & Pence Weatherlight [/u] Harvey: It looks like we'll be starting off with the women!Sally steps out to the center of the ring, and extends her hand out for Kaycee to shake it. Kaycee accepts the handshake, and the two competitors take a couple steps back from one another, circling around the ring a bit. Harvey: Good to see some sportsmanship early in this match up!Chase: I say it's good to see some hot women in the ring, myself!Harvey: (sarcastically) You charmer, you, Johnny...After measuring one another up a bit, the two women lock up in the middle of the ring, where Kaycee takes Sally to the mat with a quick Armdrag! As Sally's up, Kaycee ground her again with a Side Headlock Takedown, floating right into a Side Headlock on the mat! Kaycee wrenches the champ's head a bit, before Sally manages to push her way out of the hold. Both women are up to their feet in a flash, and Sally goes for a Spinning Wheel Kick, which Kaycee ducks! As Sally lands on the mat, Kaycee gives her a stiff kick to the back of the head, and yanks her down to the mat, going for a quick cover, 1 . . . 2 . . . Sally gets the shoulder up! Kaycee gives Sally a couple more punches to the face, and goes for another cover, 1 . . . 2 . . . Sally kicks out again! Harvey: Kaycee Young is being incredibly aggressive in the early goings of this match! She knows how dangerous of a competitor the APW Champion is, and she wants to try and wear Sally down early!Chase: These early pin attempts are meant to do just that! Kaycee knows it's going to take much more to take Sally out than what she's given her, but each time Sally has to kick out, she has to expend more energy!Kaycee pulls Sally up and takes her back down to the mat with a Snapmare, followed up with a Dropkick to the back of the head! From this, Kaycee locks in a Bow and Arrow lock on the champ, in the middle of the ring! Kaycee has the move on tight, but Sally is showing no signs of giving up, so she releases the hold. Kaycee then grabs a hold of Sally's head to pull her up, but on the way up, the champ gives her a punch to the midsection, followed up with a Jawbreaker! Kaycee is rubbing her chin on the mat as Sally makes her way to the corner, tagging in Pence! The crowd cheers as The Reaper makes his way into the ring, and pulls Kaycee up to her feet. He whips her into the ropes, and on the rebound, lifts her up into a Gorilla Press Position, before tossing her to the mat with a Gorilla Press Slam! As she slowly gets to her feet, Pence runs to the ropes to gain momentum, and catches her on the way back with a Swinging Neckbreaker! He goes for a cover, but only gets a one count. He drags Kaycee back up to her feet and whips her towards his team's corner. He lifts Kaycee onto his shoulders and reaches out to tag Sally, who mounts the top turnbuckle! Sally then grabs a hold of Kaycee's head, and leaps off the ropes, taking her down with a Swinging Neckbreaker off of Pence's shoulders! Sally goes for the cover, 1 . . . 2 . . . Kick out from Kaycee Young! Harvey: Great teamwork from Pence and Sally there! That was some move there!Chase: Kudos to Kaycee for being able to kick out of that, though!On the apron, Brandon is cheering his wife on, trying to get lead the crowd in clapping to try and will Kaycee on. A few of the fans join in, but about 60 percent of the crowd breaks out in a “SALLY! SALLY!” chant! Harvey: The Beautiful Disaster have earned their share of fans in their short time here in APW, but Sally has earned more!Sally pulls Kaycee up to her feet, and whips her towards a neutral corner! She then grabs a hold of Kaycee's head and jumps up onto the ropes, looking for a Tornado DDT! Kaycee shoves Sally off, though, and begins to make her way to her corner, where Brandon has his arm extended out as far as he can! Sally makes her way to her corner as well, and both women tag in their partners at exactly the same time! Brandon comes in like a house of fire, and takes Pence down with a Running Dropkick! As both men get back up to their feet, Brandon jumps up and takes Pence back down with a Hurricarana, the force of which sends Pence sliding out beneath the bottom rope! Brandon gets a running start, looking to go for Springboard Tope Suicidal, nailing Pence on the arena floor! The ref starts the mandatory 10 count as both men are on the floor! “1!” “2!” “3!” Brandon begins to stir. “4!” “5!” He makes his way to his feet, pulling Pence up! “6!” Brandon rolls Pence into the ring beneath the ropes, and slides in himself, breaking the count! He immediately follows up by giving Pence a few quick stomps before pulling up the larger competitor and taking him back down with a quick Snap Suplex. He then makes his way up to the top turnbuckle, but as he does so, Pence pops right up and shoves his legs right out from beneath him, causing Young to get crotched on the turnbuckle! Chase: That's gonna piss Kaycee off!Pence pulls Brandon onto his shoulders, and steps up to the center rope, leaping off to nail the Reaper's Will! He goes for a cover, 1 . . . 2 . . . kick out by Young! Pence gives Brandon a few hard Forearm Strikes to the bridge of the nose, repeatedly hitting him in the face until his nose begins to bleed! Pence then pulls Brandon up by the head, and applies a Hammerlock before shoving Brandon shoulder first into the post! A few of the fans boo this vicious move by Pence, but he heeds them no attention as he pulls Brandon back out of the corner and delivers the Reload, pinning him, 1 . . . 2 . . . Brandon gets his shoulder up! Harvey: I think we're seeing a new side to Pence here tonight, and I'm not sure if I like it!Chase: Pence seems to have a bit harder of an edge to him tonight...Brandon continues to hold his left shoulder in pain as Pence singles in on it, stomping it mercilessly about half a dozen times before reaching down to pull Brandon back up. Pence whips him into the ropes, and runs to the opposite ropes, gaining momentum, but Brandon has the wherewithal to leap over Pence's attempted Spear! Pence has so much momentum that he goes flying through the ropes to the arena floor! This gives Brandon the chance to head over to his corner and tag in Kaycee! Kaycee rushes towards the ropes, measures up Pence, who's making his way to his feet, and then goes for the Slingshot Leap of Faith, nailing Pence on the outside!

Harvey: That'll quiver your liver!Pence drags Kaycee back up to her feet and rolls her into the ring as the ref reaches the count of “7,” and he slides in himself, and goes for an immediate cover, 1 . . . 2 . . . Kick out by Kaycee Young! By this point, Pence is showing signs of anger, and forcibly yanks Kaycee up to her feet, giving her a hard kick to the midsection to hunch her over before hoisting her up for a Jack Knife Powerbomb! Rather than going for a cover, Pence pulls Kaycee back up and gives her another Jack Knife right in the center of the ring! He then goes for a cover, 1 . . . 2 . . . Brandon is in to break the count! At this point, Sally rushes into the ring, and catches Brandon with a running Spinning Wheel Kick! The ref then begins to escort Sally back to her team's corner, while Pence proceeds to mount Kaycee, and unloads a vicious volley of fists that she tries desperately to defend herself from! As Brandon gets up from the Spinning Heel Kick, he clocks Pence in the back of the head with a Short Enziguri! He then helps his wife up, and Sally tries to come back into the ring! The ref stops Sally, allowing the husband and wife duo to pull Pence up and whip him towards their corner! Brandon steps back out onto the apron as Kaycee tags him in! The two begin to unload on Pence with a barrage of lightning-fast running dropkicks, one right after the other, until after the fourth one, Brandon gets down on all fours and Kaycee leaps off his back, nailing Pence in the corner with a Spinning Heel Kick! As Kaycee rolls out of the way, Brandon kips up into a Hurricanrana, sending Pence flying out of the corner! Harvey: They call that combination the SUPER WHARRRGARBL!They really did a number on Pence with that, didn't they!As Pence is laid out on the mat, Brandon climbs up to the top turnbuckle, and leaps off, hitting with the Doomsday Shuffle!

By this point, the ref has lost all control of the match as Sally and Kaycee proceed to go at it, trading blows until Sally gets the advantage, clocking Kaycee in the face so hard it causes her to stumble back a bit. This opening allows Sally the opportunity to rock Kaycee with The Makeover! As Kaycee rolls out of the ring, Sally catches Brandon off guard, and gives him an Inverted Stomp Facebreaker before heading back to the apron! With him down, Pence is able to get up, and he pulls Brandon Young up, whipping him into his team's corner!

Sally then gets a running start and back flips off the center rope to nail the Happy Ending!

As Pence Weatherlight looks to exit the arena he runs into Level-One who is accompanied by his new found alliance members Ryan Ruckus and James Logan. The two share a brief stare down as Pence Weatherlight shuffles to the side gesturing that the walk-ramp is all his. Pence grins as he shrugs Level-One off and heads backstage. The brief encounter does not leave Level-One distracted for too long as he set's his sights on the last one's standing in the ring. Sally Talfourd still helping Brandon Young to his feet, glances up at the ramp where she see's the free agency watching on. Level-One looks to Ryan Ruckus who nods at Level-One and immediately the duo blitz down the ramp towards the ring, where-as James Logan simply trots behind at calming pace. The fans aren't having any of it, as they immediately begin booing.
Harvey: What the hell is the new ''free agency'' alliance doing out here! I thought they said they were going to expose the masked man here tonight?
Chase: Well, maybe they are! Level-One is an upstanding young man. He wouldn't lie!
Ryan Ruckus shoves Kaycee out of the way and grabs Brandon Young, yanking his arms behind his back like a police would a suspect in a crime. Level-One with a microphone in hand stands by guarding Ryan Ruckus who has Brandon Young restrained. Kaycee tries to get past Level-One but is simply shoved aside—as he turns to address Sally Talfourd who looks like she's about to fire off on the offensive any second now.
Level-One: Don't you dare move a muscle, bitch! Mr. Young, is ours. The last thing you want to do is mess this up for us. Hell, if anything you should be on our side... thanking us for what we're about to do Sally but you cant because you are far too ignorant to put your bias aside for one second even if it means serving justice...
Sally Talfourd lifts up her hands in the air shouting at Level-One but the microphone can't pick up her audio but it's clear Level-One was able to hear what she was saying, as her comments warranted a quick and swift response.
Level-One: Sally, Mr. Young here is no innocent by stander and will pay for what he's done. For what he did to YOU last week! Yes, that's right. Brandon Young was the masked man that attacked Sally Talfourd last week!
The fan's can't believe it and neither can Sally Talfourd who looks at Kaycee who in turn looks at Level-One shouting at him from the top of her lungs.
Level-One: I assure you that I and the free agency dwindled down the long list of suspects and Brandon Young is the only reasonable suspect left to choose from. I know I am not the masked man. And while Pence Weatherlight is a repetitive son of a bitch; I know that not even he's pathetic enough to try a stunt like this again. So, reasonably—I came to the next best thing. Brandon Young. It's not a coincidence that him and his little girlfriend here were the one's to take you on a week later, either. Brandon Young was trying to soften you up, in the name of gaining an immediate rise to fame and a clear cut case for the tag team championships...
Level-One looks back at Brandon Young, who struggles in Ryan Ruckuses grips.
Level-One: Though, I must say on your behalf, Mr. Young... it was hardly worth it.
Suddenly, Ryan Ruckus turns around and spikes Brandon Young's head to the canvas with a vicious snap mare driver he calls the Directors cut! Brandon Young is sprawled out on the mat life less as Kaycee Young once again runs to his aide this time, Level-One allows her to go past him and tend to her husband. In the meantime however; Level-One remains focused on Sally Talfourd.
Level-One: And now justice has been served. Don't get any ideas, Sally. I did this not because I like you, in fact I can't stand you. I hate you, Sally. However the law-- MY law has no biases. No misinterpretations, only just results. Brandon Young will suffer no more pain then he did when he attacked you a week ago, I assure you....
Cold War by Janelle Monae suddenly cuts in over Level-One mid speech as he turns around immediately livid by the interruption. And when he turns to see who it really is—he blows a gasket. Sally Talfourd uses the opportunity to slip out the ring to safety, as by now James Logan has made his way in the ring and Sally had quickly found herself in a potential three on one situation. Level-One shouts from the top of his lungs...
Keaton Saint.
The crowd's response is electric. The hardcore wrestling fans knew exactly who this man is. Level-One looks at Ryan Ruckus for some answers but all he can do his shrug his shoulders in response. Keaton Saint wielding a microphone casually strolls down the ramp as he heads towards the ring.
Keaton Saint: Who are you trying to kid, Level-One? You and I both know it wasn't Brandon Young here who dressed up, hid his face with a mask and attacked Sally Talfourd with her back turned...
Keaton Saint begins to walk up the stairs and enters the ring.
Keaton Saint: We've had our battles Level-One and each time we tore the roof off the place. In 2008 you eliminated me from the Extreme Tournament in the first round. In 2009 and I rallied back to defeat you the same way you beat me a year before by way of submission and in 2010... well we both had a quiet year for our own personal reasons. What I do know is this, we know each-other very well...
Keaton Saint states matter of factly as he walks right up to Level-One; the two staring each-other eye to eye. The tension builds with each second but Keaton Saint resorts back to duelling it out on the microphone and not a pair of flying fists.
Keaton Saint: So, it's no surprise that we both know who really was behind the masked man and it wasn't Brandon Young...
Level-One looks at Brandon Young, who's being pulled out the ring by Kaycee who struggles with his limp body weight forcing Sally Talfourd to help out at ringside. Ryan Ruckus scratches his head perplexed. As far as he's concerned he got the right guy. Before Keaton Saint can say another word, Level-One smacks the microphone out of Keaton Saints hand causing the crowd to jeer even louder.
Level-One: You're right, Keaton. You got me. It wasn't Brandon Young who was the masked man. And tell you the honest truth, I had my suspicions all along... but we may as well just come clean and let justice take it's course, right?
Keaton Saint: If you don't, I will...
Level-One looks to Ryan Ruckus and nods his head in deep regret as he turns back to Keaton Saint as humble as he has ever been.
Level-One: I'm sorry it really is going to come down to this, Keaton... but justice is justice and I am going to have to face it right here, right now. The masked man was... YOU! You Keaton Saint, you ruthlessly attacked Sally Talfourd last week in hopes that you could potentially get in with me, James Logan and now Ryan Ruckus!
Keaton Saint shakes his head side to side as he takes a step back but Level-One lunges forward kicking him in the sternum with toe of his boot. Level-One Irish whips Keaton Saint in the ropes and looks to take him out with a clothesline but Keaton Saint ducks under and pops up for a missile drop kick sending Level-One to the mat! Ryan Ruckus looks to go in onto the attack with a hurricanrana but Keaton Saint is able to reverse the position and drop Ryan Ruckus with a gut wrench power bomb!
Keaton Saint kips up to this feet riding high on the momentum he also attacks a non-aggressive James Logan who avoids a winging right hand, trips up Keaton Saint and locks him up into a sharp shooter! James Logan yanks back on the hold like a wild man as Level-One stumbles up to his feet and Ruckus begins to shake out rucking cobwebs!
Harvey: Keaton Saint almost went three for three but James Logan capitalized on Keaton Saint's seemingly minor mistake and potentially has saved the day for the Free Agency.
Chase: Well, it's about time this kid does something! I was starting to wonder why the hell he was standing there the whole time...
Level-One clinches his teeth as he hits the mat and looks into the face of Keaton Saint who is grimacing in pain as James Logan cranks on the hold with all his might.
Level-One: You son of a bitch! You think this thing is over between me and you punk!? You think you're going to make me tap out ever again!? Hell no! You're going to tap! Do you hear me you son of a bitch!? You're going to utter the words, I quit!
Level-One puts the microphone to Keaton Saints mouth as he shouts 'NOOOOOOO'' into the microphone. This infuriates Level-One as he smashes the top of the microphone into the skull of Keaton Saint over and over and over again until it breaks in half and Keaton Saint's forehead is cut open. Keaton Saint seemingly has passed out unconscious and James Logan let's up on the manuever as the free agency now assembles above the fallen body of Keaton Saint to a booing crowd.
Harvey: Tonight has really marked the night of the free agency. They have bullied, beat up, and quite frankly intimidated everyone in their way tonight, including one of their own. Free agent, Keaton Saint!
Chase: I don't think Keaton Saint was really one of their own. He clearly was working against them! Didn't you hear Level-One? Keaton Saint was the masked man!
Harvey: I think Keaton Saint was onto something much bigger and it's why Level-One did what he could to shut him up as quick and as vicious as he did here tonight.
Chase: Don't blame, Level-One—blame Sally Talfourd for all this! She's our world champion and she did nothing to help Keaton Saint but sit back and watch!
Harvey: I think any rational person would understand Sally Talfourd's position. She's going to be a target in the survive and conquer match naturally, she doesn't need to make herself even a bigger target by taking a shot at the free agency, that could potentially mean disaster for every APW star on this roster, Chase!
Chase: Well, that's all for tonight, we'll see you next week on the same night and at the same time for the last stop before survive and conquer! Goodnight everyone!
The show ends with each member of the free agency, uttering a single letter from their mouth—while they hold each-others hands up in the air...
''I'' ''W'' ''C''
The APW logo flashes across the screen as Thursday night overdrive comes to a close.
