---

OPENING — WELCOME TO CHAOS

The show opens inside Hampton Coliseum as Cody Lewis and Antonio Lee welcome the audience to another edition of Friday Night Chaos.

They run down some of the major matches scheduled for tonight, including M.A. Randolph vs. Brymstone and the huge tag-team battle between The Process and The Olympians.

The announcers note that they have not yet been informed what tonight's main event will be.

Before they can continue—

Raine Barlow's music hits.

IN-RING — RAINE BARLOW & JOSHUA JAMES: THE CAGE IS SET

“The Smasher” walks to the ring alone, sunglasses on and clearly irritated.

RAINE BARLOW:
“You know, I've been trying to figure something out for three weeks now. Apparently Joshua James and I have a problem.”

Raine pauses.

RAINE:
“Actually, let me correct that. Joshua James has a problem. Because every time something happens between us, everybody wants to talk about how Joshua James almost beat Raine Barlow.”

Raine lowers his sunglasses.

RAINE:
“Philadelphia. Joshua wins a three-way match. Congratulations. Except he pinned Jim Ambers.”

Raine holds up one finger.

RAINE:
“Didn't beat me.”

Another finger.

RAINE:
“Baltimore. Joshua gets a count-out victory.”

Raine shrugs.

RAINE:
“Didn't pin me.”

A third finger.

RAINE:
“Washington. I beat Joshua James.”

The crowd boos.

RAINE:
“And suddenly everybody has excuses. ‘Raine only won by count-out.’ Funny. Nobody had a problem with a count-out when Joshua got one.”

Raine smiles.

RAINE:
“So Joshua, I'm getting tired of hearing your name attached to mine.”

Joshua James' music hits.

Joshua heads straight for the ring with a microphone.

JOSHUA JAMES:
“You're tired of hearing my name?”

Joshua enters.

JOSHUA:
“Then stop saying it.”

The crowd reacts.

JOSHUA:
“Every interview. Every locker room. Every time somebody puts a camera in front of you, you're talking about Joshua James.”

RAINE:
“Because apparently I have to keep explaining this to people.”

JOSHUA:
“No. You're trying to convince yourself.”

Raine removes his sunglasses.

RAINE:
“Convince myself of what?”

JOSHUA:
“That you can beat me.”

RAINE:
“I DID beat you.”

JOSHUA:
“You threw me out of the ring and won by count-out.”

RAINE:
“And you did what in Baltimore?”

Joshua pauses.

JOSHUA:
“Exactly.”

The crowd reacts.

JOSHUA:
“That's the point. Three weeks. Three matches. And after all of it, you haven't pinned me...and I haven't pinned you.”

Joshua steps closer.

JOSHUA:
“So maybe we're both full of it.”

RAINE:
“Speak for yourself.”

JOSHUA:
“Then prove it.”

They're nose-to-nose.

RAINE:
“I don't have anything left to prove to you.”

Joshua smiles.

JOSHUA:
“Then why are you standing out here complaining?”

Raine SHOVES Joshua.

Joshua shoves him back.

Raine swings—and Joshua tackles him.

THE FIGHT IS ON!

Officials rush into the ring as the two men trade punches.

Then—

OZZIE SPELLMAN'S MUSIC HITS.

Ozzie storms onto the stage.

OZZIE SPELLMAN:
“ENOUGH!”

Security separates them.

OZZIE:
“I've watched this for three weeks! Philadelphia didn't settle it. Baltimore didn't settle it. Washington didn't settle it.”

Ozzie points toward the ring.

OZZIE:
“And apparently we're not even going to make it to your match tonight before you two start beating the hell out of each other again!”

The crowd reacts.

OZZIE:
“That's right. In case the two of you forgot, you've both got a match tonight.”

Ozzie reveals the main event:

TONIGHT'S MAIN EVENT

Type O Negative & Joshua James vs. Malice & Raine Barlow

OZZIE:
“And I'm not changing a damn thing!”

Joshua nods. Raine smiles.

OZZIE:
“But I've also seen enough to know that tonight isn't going to settle anything. Because every time you two wrestle, somebody gets counted out. Somebody gets thrown outside. Somebody has an excuse.”

Raine protests.

OZZIE:
“Save it, Raine! And you too, Joshua.”

Both men stop.

OZZIE:
“Tonight, you get each other in that tag-team main event.”

Ozzie pauses.

OZZIE:
“But next Friday night, October 9, there won't be a count-out.”

The crowd erupts.

OZZIE:
“There won't be a Punishment Area. There won't be a Smash Brothers. And there won't be anybody coming through that curtain to save either one of you.”

Ozzie points at both men.

OZZIE:
“Joshua James versus Raine Barlow...INSIDE A STEEL CAGE!”

Huge reaction.

RAINE:
“Good.”

JOSHUA:
“Nowhere to run.”

Raine puts his sunglasses back on.

RAINE:
“Joshua, after tonight, you might not make it to next Friday.”

JOSHUA:
“Then you better finish the job tonight.”

OZZIE:
“Save it for the main event!”

Security continues holding them apart as Chaos heads to break.

BACKSTAGE — M.A. RANDOLPH & BRYMSTONE

Lizzy reacts to what just happened before bringing in M.A. Randolph.

LIZZY:
“M.A. Randolph, later tonight you go one-on-one with Brymstone. You two have been through a lot of NAPWA history together. What are you expecting tonight?”

M.A. RANDOLPH:
“Lizzy, Brymstone and I have been around here long enough that there aren't many surprises left. We've both held that World Championship. We've both been through wars, tournaments, factions—you name it.”

M.A. smiles.

M.A.:
“And I'll give the man his credit. Four-time World Champion. You don't do that by accident. Brymstone's one of the toughest guys NAPWA has ever had.”

BRYMSTONE:
“Careful, M.A. People might think you're getting soft.”

Brymstone walks into frame.

M.A.:
“There he is. I was wondering how long you'd let me talk about you without showing up.”

BRYMSTONE:
“I heard my name.”

Brymstone looks at M.A.

BRYMSTONE:
“And I heard respect. So I'll return it. M.A. Randolph is a four-time World Champion for a reason. We've both been here through some of the biggest moments in this company's history.”

He steps closer.

BRYMSTONE:
“But history isn't wrestling this match tonight.”

M.A.'s smile fades.

M.A.:
“No. We are.”

BRYMSTONE:
“Exactly.”

The tension rises.

M.A.:
“You know what I like about you, Brymstone? You don't need to run your mouth for twenty minutes telling everybody how dangerous you are.”

BRYMSTONE:
“And you usually run yours enough for both of us.”

M.A. laughs.

M.A.:
“Okay. That was pretty good.”

Brymstone cracks a slight smile.

BRYMSTONE:
“Tonight isn't personal, M.A. But I'm not taking a step backward for you.”

M.A.:
“I wouldn't respect you if you did.”

M.A. offers his hand.

Brymstone shakes it.

Neither immediately releases.

M.A.:
“See you out there.”

BRYMSTONE:
“You will.”

Brymstone leaves.

M.A. watches him go.

M.A.:
“That's gonna hurt.”

LIZZY:
“M.A. Randolph versus Brymstone, later tonight.”

PHARAOH'S ARMY vs. STOMP MACHINE

Extravagante & Alexander Zukov vs. King Malosi & Gamba

Two teams entered in the upcoming Tag Team Championship Tournament get an opportunity to test one another.

Pharaoh's Army controls portions of the match, but Stomp Machine's power becomes increasingly difficult to contain.

After 23 minutes, King Malosi catches Extravagante in the Samoan Death Grip and gets the pinfall.

RESULT: Stomp Machine def. Extravagante & Alexander Zukov — King Malosi pins Extravagante with the Samoan Death Grip, 23:00.

---

POST-MATCH — STOMP MACHINE

Lizzy catches King Malosi and Gamba backstage as the return up the ramp from their successful match.

LIZZY:
“King Malosi, Gamba—big victory tonight over Pharaoh's Army. With the Tag Team Championship Tournament approaching, what does a win like this mean for Stomp Machine?”

Gamba, still breathing heavily, steps forward.

GAMBA:
“It means everybody in that tournament better start paying attention. We've been around NAPWA long enough to know that nobody gives you anything here. If you want those championships, you take them.”

Malosi nods.

KING MALOSI:
“Extravagante and Zukov are dangerous. We knew that coming in. Tonight, we beat them.”

LIZZY:
“You've always been a man who prefers to let his actions do the talking.”

Malosi gives a slight smile.

KING MALOSI:
“I usually let my actions speak for me.”

He looks into the camera.

KING MALOSI:
“But I'll say this. We didn't come back to NAPWA just to be another team in the tournament.”

GAMBA:
“We want the Tag Team Championship.”

KING MALOSI:
“And tonight was one step.”

GAMBA:
“Three victories in Atlantic City. That's all it takes.”

Malosi shakes his head.

KING MALOSI:
“Not all it takes.”

Gamba looks at him.

KING MALOSI:
“You have to survive them first.”

Gamba grins.

GAMBA:
“That's why I brought you.”

Malosi almost smiles.

KING MALOSI:
“Up From The Ashes. Stomp Machine is coming for the Tag Team Championship.”

The two leave.

LIZZY:
“An impressive victory tonight—and a very clear message from Stomp Machine.”

---

BACKSTAGE — MALICE

The camera catches Malice preparing for tonight's main event.

He finishes taping his wrist and looks into the camera.

MALICE:
“Look at tonight's main event. Type O Negative. Joshua James. Raine Barlow. Three men with something to prove.”

Malice smirks.

MALICE:
“And then there's me.”

He stands.

MALICE:
“Type O came back after almost six years and everybody acted like some NAPWA legend had risen from the dead. Then last week, he stepped into the ring with Malice.”

Malice raises his hand.

MALICE:
“Seven minutes. That's all it took.”

His expression hardens.

MALICE:
“Type O, you're a three-time World Champion. I respect the history. But history didn't save you when I pinned your shoulders to that mat.”

He turns his attention toward Joshua.

MALICE:
“And Joshua James...another member of that famous James family. I've dealt with Jimmy. I've dealt with Cousin Vinny. I've dealt with Punishment Area. Tonight, I get the next generation.”

Malice chuckles.

MALICE:
“But Joshua has a problem. He's so worried about Raine Barlow that he might forget who else is standing across that ring.”

Malice moves closer.

MALICE:
“Raine and I don't need matching shirts. We don't need to shake hands. We don't even need to like each other.”

Pause.

MALICE:
“Raine wants Joshua James.”

Malice smiles.

MALICE:
“And I want Type O Negative.”

He starts toward the door.

MALICE:
“So Raine...take care of your problem.”

Malice looks back.

MALICE:
“I'll take care of mine.”

One last smirk.

MALICE:
“And Type O...last week wasn't a fluke. Tonight, I'll prove it again.”

Malice heads toward the arena.

Then The Bishop's music hits!

The Bishop runs to the ring carrying his crosier.

---

MATCH 8

M.A. RANDOLPH vs. BRYMSTONE

The earlier respect remains—but once the bell rings, neither former World Champion gives the other an inch.

It's a physical 17-minute battle between two men who know exactly what the other has accomplished.

Tonight, M.A. was simply better.

---

BACKSTAGE — TYPE O NEGATIVE & JOSHUA JAMES

The camera enters a quiet locker room.

Type O Negative sits alone on a bench, already dressed for the main event.

The door opens.

Joshua James enters.

Type O doesn't immediately acknowledge him.

JOSHUA JAMES:
“You always this talkative before a match?”

Type O slowly looks up.

TYPE O NEGATIVE:
“Depends who's talking.”

Joshua smiles slightly.

JOSHUA:
“Fair enough.”

Joshua sits across from him.

JOSHUA:
“Look, I'm not going to pretend this isn't a little strange.”

TYPE O:
“Why?”

JOSHUA:
“Because when I was coming up around here, you were Type O Negative. Three-time World Champion. The guy everybody talked about. The guy my father talked about.”

Type O's attention sharpens.

TYPE O:
“Jimmy.”

JOSHUA:
“Yeah. Jimmy.”

TYPE O:
“Your father and I have a great deal of history.”

JOSHUA:
“I know.”

Silence.

TYPE O:
“Some of it good.”

JOSHUA:
“Some of it not so good.”

Type O almost smiles.

TYPE O:
“Your father taught you well.”

Joshua shakes his head.

JOSHUA:
“He taught me enough to know I don't have to like somebody to fight beside them.”

Type O stands.

TYPE O:
“Good. Because tonight isn't about friendship.”

Joshua stands too.

JOSHUA:
“Wasn't looking for any.”

Type O moves closer.

TYPE O:
“Malice believes what happened last week means something. He believes because he defeated me, he proved that my return was a mistake.”

Pause.

TYPE O:
“Then he brought his friends down and tried to bury me.”

Joshua nods.

JOSHUA:
“And Raine thinks throwing me out of the ring proved something too.”

Type O looks at him.

TYPE O:
“Did it?”

JOSHUA:
“No.”

Type O nods.

TYPE O:
“Then perhaps we understand each other better than you thought.”

Joshua looks toward the door.

JOSHUA:
“Next week Raine and I get a cage. No count-outs. No running. Nobody getting involved.”

TYPE O:
“And tonight?”

Joshua turns back.

JOSHUA:
“Tonight I don't want to wait until next week.”

Type O smiles.

TYPE O:
“Good.”

He heads toward the door but stops.

TYPE O:
“One piece of advice. Do not become so consumed with Raine Barlow that you forget there are two men standing across from us tonight.”

JOSHUA:
“Malice.”

TYPE O:
“Malice.”

Type O's expression changes.

TYPE O:
“He believes this company still belongs to him.”

Joshua shakes his head.

JOSHUA:
“My family has heard that speech from a lot of people.”

TYPE O:
“And so have I.”

Joshua extends his hand.

Type O stares at it.

Finally, he shakes it.

JOSHUA:
“Tonight?”

TYPE O:
“Tonight we remind them that history doesn't disappear simply because they wish it would.”

Type O opens the door.

Before leaving, he turns back.

TYPE O:
“Joshua...when that cage comes down next week...make sure Raine Barlow learns something about you that he didn't know before he walked inside.”

Joshua smiles.

JOSHUA:
“Oh, he will.”

Type O nods.

TYPE O:
“Then let's go introduce Malice and Mr. Barlow to the negative ways.”

They leave together.

MATCH 9

THE PROCESS vs. THE OLYMPIANS

Ian LeSabre & All-American Jim Ambers vs. Mighty Zeus & Apollo Jackson

One week after Mighty Zeus defeated Ian LeSabre in singles competition, Ian gets another opportunity at Zeus—this time with Jim Ambers beside him.

This becomes a marathon.

The Olympians repeatedly use their size and power, while Ian and Ambers refuse to go away.

At 57 minutes, Ian finally gets Mighty Zeus where he wants him.

VICIOUS CHOP!

Ian covers.

1...2...3!

Ian LeSabre has pinned Mighty Zeus.

---

MAIN EVENT

TYPE O NEGATIVE & JOSHUA JAMES

vs.

MALICE & RAINE “THE SMASHER” BARLOW

The opening bell immediately brings Type O Negative and Malice together.

Type O wastes no time.

CHOKESLAM!

Type O covers Malice in the opening minute, but Malice kicks out.

The message is clear: last week's seven-minute loss has not been forgotten.

As the match continues, Joshua and Raine repeatedly look for opportunities to get at each other.

Neither has forgotten the cage waiting for them next Friday.

But tonight's result comes from an unexpected pairing.

In the 21st minute, Type O Negative and Raine Barlow are legal.

Type O drops Raine with a Kneedrop.

Raine survives.

Then—

SMASHER CLUTCH!

Raine hooks Type O.

1...

2...

3!

Raine Barlow has pinned Type O Negative!

RESULT

Malice & Raine Barlow def. Type O Negative & Joshua James — Raine Barlow pins Type O Negative with the Smasher Clutch, 21:00.

---

CLOSING — CHAOS ERUPTS

The referee barely finishes counting three.

Joshua James immediately jumps Raine Barlow!

Joshua unloads with punches.

At the same time, Malice attacks Type O Negative.

Type O fights back.

Raine fights back.

All four men are now beating the hell out of each other.

Ozzie Spellman and security race toward the ring.

Then the locker room begins emptying.

Cousin Vinny, M.A. Randolph and Cortez Haynes come out for Punishment Area.

JDizzle runs down to assist Raine Barlow.

Then The Olympians—Mighty Zeus and Apollo Jackson—charge back out to support Malice.

The ring area explodes into a massive brawl.

Ozzie and security try desperately to restore order.

Cody Lewis is nearly shouting over the chaos.

CODY LEWIS:
“Look at this! We've lost complete control!”

Joshua continues trying to fight his way through everyone to reach Raine.

Raine is doing exactly the same thing.

ANTONIO LEE:
“And somehow Ozzie Spellman expects to put those two men inside a steel cage next Friday night!”

The camera finds Joshua on one side of the mass of bodies.

Raine is on the other.

They're screaming at one another.

NEXT FRIDAY — OCTOBER 9

STEEL CAGE MATCH

JOSHUA JAMES vs. RAINE “THE SMASHER” BARLOW

CODY LEWIS:
“No count-outs! No running! No excuses! Joshua James and Raine Barlow inside a steel cage next week on Friday Night Chaos!”

The camera pulls back as the fight continues.

FRIDAY NIGHT CHAOS FADES TO BLACK.
