Let's here some thoughts after the show
Chris Hero: what in the freaking world?That ref calls for a double DQ? Fine me, but this is a tournament for the ROH World Title man! Horrible job on the ref's part. It'll be sweet to take the title from Quackenduck.
Trent Acid: My boy Johnny and myself shocked no one by winning the ROH tag titles, but I shocked everyone by nearly winning the ROH title. While my tag obligations will keep me busy, just keep a peak over your shoulder Quackenbush.
Delirious: garble gerlv jursfp ajggfjo aetboognidf reggin yarrvn kiopcs
Savage T: Dude, this is ten times better than renting out entertainment centers! I could care less if I ever win a match!!

LOTF Card 1 New ROH World Champion Mike Quackenbush came out to open the program, greeting fans along ringside and standing on the turnbuckle hoisting his newly won belt high in the air and addressed the capacity crowd.
Mike Quackenbush: First of all, thanks to everyone for their continued support. Believe me, I have complete confidence in my abilities, but you look at the brackets in the tournament and I knew it was going to be one hell of a battle. Now I know I’m about to get interrupted because I know him well, so Chris, come on out.
This brought Chris Hero and Larry Sweeney to the ring
Chris Hero: Well well, little Mikey Quackenbush, standing proud as ROH World Champion, soaking up the fans cheers. Rah rah! Bravo! But Mikey, you know one thing and that is I can beat you for that title! In fact, I’m calling you out to put the belt on the line tonight.
Quackenbush stood quietly looking at Hero for a few moments before grabbing the mic from Hero’s hand
Mike Quackenbush: Yes Chris, we know you are the best. Remember, we were on the opposite sides of the bracket and yet, who did I face in the finals? Oh that’s right, Trent Acid and NOT Chris Hero. Weren’t you eliminated in what, the 2nd round?
Hero wouldn’t take another put down by Quackenbush and took a swing, but Quackenbush ducked and delivered a savatte kick to Hero, sending him falling into Sweeney and knocking both men to the ring. Hero was irate on the floor and told Quackenbush that he’d walk out of the arena with that belt tonight.
Savage T came out to the ring, attempting to shake hands with several ringside fans, but most didn’t have a clue who he was and simply sat in their seat as his opponent, Arik Cannon, waited impatiently in the ring
Savage T : Thanks everyone for your support. Remind me and I’ll hand out personalized pics and Savage-T shirts the next cards. I just don’t want to find them on eBay, OK!
Savage T looked across the ring to Cannon
Savage T: Dude, your hair is awesome! In fact, it’s an honor to face you! I’ve seen your stuff on Youtube and on DVDs. Now granted, it’s not like seeing Ric Flair on TBS. Heck, it’s not even like seeing George South on TBS, but hey dude, Youtube is pretty cool though.
By that time, Cannon slugged Savage T, sending him to the mat.
1) Savage T pinned Arik Cannon following the VERTIBREAKER
As Savage T was jumping around the ring in juvenile celebration, Cannon recovered and obviously took offense to the awkward celebration. Cannon blasted him with the GLIMMERING WARLOCK and gave him a brainbuster. KJ Hill tended to her fallen man and yelled at Cannon to get away. Cannon picked her up by the wrist and laughed at her and shoved her down.
Savage T out three
2) In a best of five series for the ROH Woman’s Title, Trudi DeNucci pinned April Hunter to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
Eddie Fyne strolled to the ring in a cocky manner hurling insults to the ringside fans
Eddie Fyne: Yes, I know you cannot believe your eyes, but it’s true. ROH has flown in Elegant Eddie Fyne in from Las Vegas because they know he delivers ratings. And I deliver ratings by signing the best talent in order to win each and every belt in ROH. Now I’d like to introduce my first signees – the greatest tag team in professional wrestling – Sean Davis! Phil Davis! The! Heartbreak! Expresssss!!!!!!
This brought out the Naptown Dragons
Dustin Lee: Hold on now. First, as much as we hate to admit it, the Backseat Boyz have the belts, so you have zero claim on any greatest team in pro wrestling tag boys. Now if you two boys would like to claim to any greatest tag, lets prove it tonight and step into the ring with myself and Scotty.
3) Heartbreak Express beat Naptown Dragons when Eddie Fyne blasted Scotty Vortekz in the head with a roll of quarters, causing Vortekz to be counted out.
Dustin Lee: Damn, that’s how it goes huh? You have seen our matches haven’t you? You want to get dirty, boys, we can get dirty.
Backstage, April Hunter was nursing a sore knee on a bench in a dressing room when Ricky Landell sate down beside her
Ricky Landell: Tough loss, but I say you got ripped. But hey, you need to talk, you know…
Just then JD Michaels came into the room and yelled at Landell
JD Michaels: What the hell do you think you’re doing dude?
Ricky Landell: Hey dude, you weren’t around, so I was hoping to console her after a tough loss tonight.
JD Michaels: She’s fine, just stay the hell away man.
Ricky Landell: Hey, you feel the need to talk for your woman? She doesn’t have a voice? Tell you what, show her what kind of man you are and step into the ring tonight. You man enough?
JD Michaels: More of a man you’ll ever be. See you tonight
Adam Pearce and Larry Sweeney came to the ring
Adam Pearce: Okay, here I am, a NWA WORLD Champion and ROH didn’t see fit to book me on their first card? What kind of second rate crap is this? I demand a match. I don’t care who it is.
Just then Timber came to the ring
Timber: Pearce, shut your mouth
Timber then slugged him, effectively starting the match
4) Adam Pearce pinned Timber after a top rope elbow
Adam Pearce: Time to shut your mouth lumberjack! Go back to chopping trees! You’re not in my league!
5) Ricky Landell pinned JD Michaels following a double arm underhook suplex
After the match, Landell did a few gyrating moves towards Hunter, laughed and left the ring
Backstage, Harker Dirge and Sam Hayne had an interview
Harker Dirge: Finally, the rematch the fans want to see. Bloody Harker Dirge and the Dark Lord himself, Sam Hayne, facing off against the Backseat Boyz for the ROH World Tag Titles. Tonight, you two will stare into the face of evil and will discover what many men have discovered – that we are the two most fearsome men in pro wrestling. Hayne will burn you with HELLS FLAME and I’ll bury you with the DIRT NAP. Get ready Boyz.
A rumble started from the back of the arena. The fans saw Necro Butcher running to the ring as Drake Younger was nailing him with a 2x4.
6) Necro Butcher beat Drake Younger by DQ after blasting him with a light tube.
Butcher fled the ring after being busted open with the light
Drake Younger: Oh come on Butcher! You can’t take a light tube shot? I thought you were tough or at least wouldn’t flee the ring. Tell you what. Lets see if your reputation precedes you. How about a no disqualification match next card?
Claudio Castagnoli wasn’t happy about facing Delirious
Claudio Castagnoli: Bah, who wants to face this goof Delirious. He can’t even talk. A man of my stature and talent shouldn’t be wasting away facing a goof like this.
Delirious then came to the ring
Delirious: Gkmlhoyun geobahpop peihsllnm slkaik
Claudio Castagnoli: Is this some joke? Speak man.
Delirious held out a hand to motion to Castagnoli to be quiet. He then put his fingers together, but leaving one standing up, staring at Castagnoli in the face.
7) Delirious pinned Claudio Castagnoli following CHEMICAL IMBALANCE #2
Sweeney attacked Delirious from behind and held Delirious has Castagnoli unmercifully slapped him telling him to respect me when you speak to me. Sweeney got a few kicks in before leaving.
8) ROH World Tag Champs Backseat Boyz beat Harker Dirge & Sam Hayne when Trent Acid pinned Dirge after the T-GIMMICK
Harker Dirge out 4
9) ROH World Champion Mike Quackenbush pinned Chris Hero following the QUACKENDRIVER

Wow, Acid making the finals is a big surprise. Kinda alot of DQs... I hate it when that happens. that was a surprise with Acid. He would have been a double champion like Buddy Rogers starting off in my Legends fed. Yeah, those damn DQs really spoil some good matches, but at least there aren't Dusty finishes in Filsinger land

LOTF Card 2
ROH World Champion Mike Quackenbush came out to open the program.
Mike Quackenbush: Okay Chris (Hero), you’ve had your fun. You said you were leaving with the belt and yes, you did. But you didn’t defeat me though. So be a man and bring the belt out to me like a true competitor would.
This brought out Sweet & Sour Inc, which consisted of Larry Sweeney, Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, Adam Pearce & Arik Cannon. As Hero climbed into the ring, the other four slowly surrounded the ring.
Chris Hero took the mic and got into Quackenbush’s face.
Chris Hero: Okay twerp, here’s the story. Take the belt back. Myself and four of my friends say you can’t do it.
Suddenly, the members outside the ring began disappearing under the ring. Finally, as the last man, Sweeney, was pulled under, Hero noticed something was wrong. He noticed his teammates were slowly disappearing. Hero ran to the edge of the ropes, but Delirious popped up and smashed him with a right jab. Hero dropped the belt, which Delirious managed to grab
Delirious hopped in the ring and stood with Quackenbush as the members of Sweet & Sour Inc regrouped and hurled some insults before leaving. Delirious motioned for a mic
Delirious: agjouiwl; sadjfoivnm asdfjksajk guhhas; jkoioiljg
Mike Quackenbush: Absolutely, I’ll team up with you against Hero and Castagnoli tonight!
The two shook hands as Delirious handed Quackenbush the ROH World Title.
1) Drake Younger won a Battle Royal to win the ROH TV Title
After the match, Necro Butcher blasted him with a light tube while yelling at him, “How’s it feel b**ch!!! How’s it feel b**ch!!!!”
The Naptown Dragons ran out to drive off Butcher. As they helped Younger to his feet and raise his hand in victory, Dustin Lee took the mic.
Dustin Lee: I hope everyone remembers what that scumsucker Eddie Fyne pulled last week. Scotty, show him your head.
Scotty Vortekz lifted his hair to show a huge bandage. Vortekz ripped off the bandage to reveal a forehead full of stitches.
Dustin Lee: That was from your roll of quarters punch. Now we are challenging the Heartbreak Express to a rematch tonight. But this is not a promise, but a guarantee Eddie Fyne – if you stick your nose in our business, you’ll knock your head off!
2) The Naptown Dragons beat The Heartbreak Express when Scotty Vortekz pinned Phil Davis following the DOUBLE DRAGON
Fyne ran over and nailed Lee in the back of the head with a roll of quarters. HBX and Fyne then tripled teamed Vortekz
3) April Hunter pinned Trudi DeNucci after the HEADHUNTER.
The Series is now even at 1-1
Larry Sweeney and Arik Cannon came out
Larry Sweeney: As you in the arena saw earlier…Arik Cannon, due to his past relationship with Hero and Castagnoli, has agreed to terms with Sweet & Sour Inc. Mr. Cannon will benefit greatly from this relationship and will start tonight with the (both men began laughing hysterically) Belgian Brawler!
4) Arik Cannon pinned Belgian Brawler following the GLIMMERING WARLOCK
Sweeney and Cannon grabbed the Belgian flag and began prancing around with it in a mocking way. Brawler saw this and with a burst of adrenaline, clotheslined both over the top rope.
Ricky Landell came to the ring
Ricky Landell: I just want to congratulate Ms. April Hunter on her fabulous win tonight. It was no doubt my fantastic pep talk that propelled her to that important win.
JD Michaels had heard enough and charged the ring and tackled Landell
5) Ricky Landell pinned JD Michaels after the TOP ROPE FISTDROP
Ricky Landell: April, I’ve humiliated your man twice. You need to wake up woman and get with a real man. Not this never was. I was voted Legend of the Future. Not you JD! April, you know where to find me.
Adam Pearce came out with Larry Sweeney
Adam Pearce: Okay Larry, I signed up with you to get me important matches. Yet, here I am against Timber once again?
Larry Sweeney: Hey Adam, trust me! I have contracts in my file in the back. Work your way up tonight, humiliate Timber and I bet you’ll be in line for a shot at the World or TV title.
Adam Pearce: Just remember Larry, I’m a former NWA World Champ.
The commotion brought out Timber.
Timber: Glad you two are so confident and think of me as a stepping stone. But I think you are thinking wrong. So tonight, since you have such a brash attitude, how about we face off in a Barbed Wire Ax on a Pole Match?
Pearce and Sweeney confided in each other for a few moments before they accepted.
6) In a Barbed Wire Ax on a Pole Match, Adam Pearce beat Timber
As the ref was distracted, Sweeney had climbed the pole to push the ax down to a waiting Pearce. Pearce then nailed Timber in the stomach and gave him the JUMPING PILEDRIVER to win the bout.
The arena went dark as fire shot from the turnbuckles and a single orange spotlight shown on the imposing figure of Sam Hayne
Sam Hayne: Backseat Boyz, the fans may love your antics, but I don’t. We had the titles won last week, but you had to injure my partner Harker Dirge. But he’s been studying your tapes and know your biggest weaknesses. So either one of you man enough to face me…come to the ring and face your greatest fear
This brought out the Backseat Boyz
Johnny Kashmere: Hold on Sam. Both of us are sooooo frightened to face you, we are doing rock-paper-scissors.
Kashmere won with a rock beats scissors. Trent Acid wished him luck and gave him a high five.
7) Johnny Kashmere battled Sam Hayne to a double DQ
Drake Younger came to the ring with a box of light tubes
Drake Younger: Necro Butcher, last card I challenged you to a No DQ match and that’s still on. But there’s more to stake tonight. I’m putting up my newly won TV title on the line. You may consider the title shot your lucky day, but when this match up is over, it’s going to be your worst day.
8) In a no DQ match, ROH TV Champ Drake Younger pinned Necro Butcher following DRAKE’S LANDING.
9) ROH World Champ Mike Quackenbush & Delirious beat the Kings of Wrestling by DQ when Sweeney, Cannon and Pearce interfered and attacked Quackenbush and Delirious.
