The scene opens up and the lights are off and the noise is scarce. A few lights flicker, but that is nothing to guide a man. Not enough to guide a lost soul to a better place. The light is off for a reason. The moment Kenneth Walker set foot in this place, he knew there were going to be problems. Darkness was eating the company alive. Burdens are heavy and souls are left dying. The thought of cleaning the SCW seemed impossible, but he is here. He will make all things better.
Voice: 'Let There Be Light!'
A man is seen with his back to the camera. In an instant, the lights turned on and almost blinded the viewer. The man turns around to show himself and he is none other than Kenneth Walker
Kenneth Walker: My name is Kenneth Walker, and I will be your Guiding Light. Take the hand of mercy and follow me to the promise land. Don't let your sins pull you down, because I believe there is always hope. You can be forgiven, you can be saved, you can repent. Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the last edition of Penance.
He holds out a hand towards the camera.
Kenneth Walker: You can forget your past and start new that’s what SCW was all about, It was about repenting. Well this was what Sin City was all about, and what it will be. After tonight, after this last show of Penance, there will be one last final blow out special, there will be one to come from all the ages, and I’m going to do my best to pull all the stops to make it the best that was here for SCW. I will be introducing old wrestlers of the past and re introducing some of them for what may be the last time in the very arena. As of right now I can see the anticipation in the fans here tonight.
The fans cheer to show that they agree.
Kenneth Walker: There really hasn’t been a decided title for the special and I’m not sure if there will be one. But for all you fan out It will take place on a special day and that is for certain, it will take place on the 4th of July. What a day to go out I think with a bang. A time for celebration and not for morning, this is and will always be one of the greatest send off’s every. Our Co-Owner Austin Starr isn’t here tonight unfortunately.
Boo’s from the crowd can be heard at the mere mention of his name.
Kenneth Walker: Before anyone jumps to conclusion though. Right now I got word that he’s out doing some big thing, putting money in big places, if I stand correct I heard the he’s planning on putting some of his money and lord knows he’s got a lot of it to have SCW have it’s last match where it all begin one last time in Sin City… and that will actually be a televised match on a big stage, well I’m not sure if something like this will make a man such as Austin Starr broke or not, I’m willing to bet it’s a risk he’s willing to take and bank on making money on it. Either way where going out with a bang ladies and gentlemen but until then enjoy tonight’s show.
The fans cheer as Kenneth Walker finishes his speech and walks away the fans wait again and they await as the camera angle switches it’s position to the announcers for tonight’s show.
Jullian: So this is it huh. We’ll bob after tonight we only have one night left to come to work. I’ll be set not sure about you though, you’ll probably end up homeless.
Bob: Thanks for the faith Jullian, I’m sure I’ll be able to take care of myself.

Rashanda then comes into the ring and sits down on top of a fallen Jack Orton. She then gets an evil gleam in her eye as she starts to rub her massive folds of fat flesh in Orton’s face before leaning down and giving him a sloppy kiss that looks more like her devouring a small child instead of being romantic. Rashanda continues to nearly devour the face of Jack Orton for several minutes until Ill taps on her shoulder and then she stands up. Orton is visibly gagging and near vomiting as is the entire viewing public as he rolls out of the ring and disappears from the crowd.

Winner by Pinfall – Sir Luscious Leftfoot (8:21)
Leftfoot, Barack O Drama, and Mexican Santa Claus all celebrate in the ring with the Mexican Santa throwing burritos and little Mexicans into the Vice Pit crowd for a few moments before a very familiar music hits over the Vice Pit speakers. We see Kenneth Walker walking out and down to the ring applauding Leftfoot for getting his victory, once Ken gets inside Leftfoot and his buddies all decide to leave. Ken then motions to the ringside man for a microphone and once he is given one, he lets the crowd cheer him for a few moments before beginning to speak.
Kenneth Walker: As all of you watching at home know by now, the ultimatum issued by Austin and myself for change has gone unanswered. So due to this, the great and storied SCW name is indeed closing down and this is going to be the final edition of Monday night Penance. It pains me greatly to say this, but it also brings me great joy to be able to put a great historic brand of entertainment to rest with one final blow out special. As said earlier, July 4th, Independence Day will be the final stand of SCW. A show to end all shows, where the doors will be opened to any competitor from SCW’s storied past and hungry pres-
”Superstar” by Lupe Fiasco comes on over the arena speakers and the deafening boos come on almost immediately as a grinning Austin Starr walks out onto the stage holding a microphone of his own. Ken looks legitimately surprised to see Austin here tonight as cups and trash start to get thrown in Austin’s direction. None of it seems to bother or phase Austin who raises the microphone to his mouth and begins to speak, never taking his eyes off of Ken.
Austin Starr: Kenneth old friend, did you really think that I would miss the final edition of the show in the company that I single handedly revolutionized and made famous once again.
Kenneth Walker: Old friend, when will you realize that the world doesn’t revolve around you. This isn’t about you, this isn’t about me; this is about giving a great company the send off it deserves. Now as I was saying, the card is still being finalized as we speak—but a couple of matches that are official that I can announce now are as follows. First and maybe most significant, I am honored to announce that the three forefathers of the original SCW have agreed to return for one night only to compete to settle any all pride and grudges. Yes, CM Punk, the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels and Jonny “The Rockstar” Freeman are going to meet on the 4th of July in the match of all matches. Three men, final show, only one man can get his head held high. Who will it be? You’ll just have to wait and see.
Austin Starr: And Valerie is defending her title in some Open Challenge, but that’s not relevant right now. I’m out here right now Ken for two reasons, one is, despite advice against it. I have decided to personally fund this event and take it back to where it all began. Sin City…Las Vegas Nevada.
The crowd screams their approval at the sound of the three legends returning and the return to Sin City, Nevada. They stop when Austin begins to speak again
Austin Starr: Also old friend, the other reason why I’m here is simple. Kenneth I need to tell you that from the bottom of my heart. I truly underestimated you—I’ve done everything in my power to ruin your mundane excuse of a life, but you continue to bounce back. The stubborn heart you possess helps you overcome come each and every single adversity that I’ve put in front of you. No matter what I’ve done old friend, our paths and our very lives seem to always be interconnected. I’ve decided old friend, that there’s only one thing left that I can do, and that is finally settle this long standing vendetta with you once and for all. That is why I am challenging you right now old friend, face me at the final SCW event. Austin Starr vs. Kenneth Walker, the final battle, where win, lose or draw, this issue between us will finally be settled.
It takes Ken a matter of seconds before he responds
Kenneth Walker: You’re on…on the 4th of July…not only will I be defeating a rival…but I will also hopefully be having a brother come to his senses…get ready old friend…either way…when this is all said and done…neither of us will ever be the same….
Ken drops the microphone and the two former friends and now owners nod to each other as Austin leaves and Ken follows suit moments later with the fans cheering at the announcement of the match.
Jullian: An old war will finally be settled on America’s Independence Day Bob. This just got interesting….
Bob: I really don’t know who is going to take it Julian….but either way…onto the main event.

He climbs over the top rope and proceeds to climb each turnbuckle one at a time, raising his right arm in the air. He then jumps up and down a little in the center of the ring and crouches a little and eyes Valerie Melamid as he waits for the bell to be rung.

Valerie staggers backward and Blade hits her with a DDT. He stomps Valerie in the ribs, and then quickly goes to lock in the Jackknife early on, but Valerie rolls out and grabs the ropes.
Bob: Blade Lavigne, looking to put this match away earlier. It could have all been over if he locked in the Jackknife
Jullian: I don’t expect anything out of Blade, the only reason why he has a shot is cuz he earned his VP. Earning a victory is something else entirely Blade has always fallen short of when it comes to the title.

Bob: Those are nice moves from the Champ.
Jullian: Hopefully Blade is taking notes.
Valerie picks Blade up and goes to hit him with a suplex, but Blade knocks Valerie away and then hits her with hip toss followed by a snap suplex. Valerie attempts to stagger to her feet, but Blade dropkicks her, and he falls through the ropes and to the floor below. She goes to climb back into the ring, but Blade hits her with another dropkick to the face that forces her back into the barricade. Blade then hits her with cross body from the ring apron.

Bob: We’ll see about that Jullian
Valerie grabs at Blade’s leg, but Blade kicks her away. Blade climbs to his feet, but Valerie delivers the Clothes Wash. She then quickly puts Blade in the infamous Iron Board. It’s the same move that Blade has kicked out before but also has passed out from it, never willing to give up, never willing to give in, and as we hear Blades screams echo from the arena, he muster deep inside, looking for that ounce of energy, looking for that something special that will give him what he’s always desired, Blade eyes show a glint of spark, and the crowd goes wild as Blade struggles, and he inches over slowly and manages to make it to the ropes, and Valerie is forced to break his hold. The crowd cheers and the courageous act that Blade has put on and he get to his feet quick now and he hits Valerie with an elbow and quickly follows with a hard uppercut and sends Valerie into the ropes.

Maintaining his hold, Valerie puts Blade in a simple clutch. Blade struggles and Valerie tightens his hold, but Blade manages to get to the ropes again, forcing Valerie to break his hold.
Bob: Amazing performance by Blade Lavigne. But Blade isn’t ready to give up his quest for Valerie’s championship anytime soon.
Jullian: It’s just the inevitable being delayed, and soon you’ll be paying me my money.
Blade uses the ropes to get to his feet, and Valerie grabs him and hits him with a backbreaker. She allows Blade to get to his feet and goes for a big boot, but Blade ducks it and hits Valerie with a neck breaker. He gets the look in his eye like he’s about to do something big, and he puts Valerie in an Iron Board.
Bob: Blade giving Valerie a taste of her own medicine, and he’s got it locked int. We could crown a new U.S. Champion tonight.
Valerie struggles to get to the ropes, but Blade pulls her away. Blade tightens his hold, and Valerie reaches out for the ropes in vain. Blade continues to put pressure on Valerie to get her to tap. Blade looks at all the screaming fans in the stands tonight, for tonight he has that look on his face like it’s supposed to be his night, his time, and clinches in full force with everything he has, with every last bit of power.
Bob: Valerie has never tapped in her career. Could this be the first time?
Jullian: Shut up bob. It’s not over yet. She hasn’t tapped yet.
Valerie refuses to tap, but Blade is equally resilient in keeping the hold in place. Valerie tries to get some leverage, but Blade keeps her on the mat. Valerie looks close to tapping as she makes another attempt for the ropes.
Bob: This doesn't look good for the champion.
Jullian: Of all the times I bet, I can’t believe this.
Valerie almost makes it to the ropes, but Blade pulls her away again. Valerie begins to succumb to the pressure of the hold and the ref rushes over to check on her.
Bob: She might not tap, but Valerie certainly looks dangerously close to passing out here. Could this end the same way that Valerie ended Blade. Could Blade Lavigne make Valerie Melamid pass out the same way she made him pass out last time they faced off.
Jullian: Valerie must be in....
Bob: Just say it.
Valerie begins to fade, and the referee checks on her. Blade tightens his hold. The ref lifts Valerie's hand and let's it drop....1...

Blade grabs Valerie and puts her in a headlock as he holds the ropes. 1....2....3....4.... Blade releases and kicks Valerie in the head.
Bob: Valerie managed to get out that move. Blade Lavigne can't be happy. But Blade has the advantage. Now's the time for him to capitalize and walk out of here with the championship.
Jullian: Don’t get to happy yet Bob, I’m back in the game with my bet.
Valerie leans heavily on the ropes and Blade Lavigne charges at her. Valerie manages to catch Blade and toss him over the ropes. As Blade crashes to the floor below, Valerie takes a step back to catch her breath. Blade is quick to get back into the ring, but this time Valerie is at the advantage.

Jullian: Well we should know that never really takes much.
Valerie slides out of the ring to check on the referee. Blade slides out of the ring for another reason. Taking advantage of the unconscious referee, Blade grabs a chair from underneath the ring and smashes Valerie in the back with it.
Bob: That had to hurt.
Jullian: Blade Lavigne is taking advantage of this situation and cheating like a scum bag.

Winner by Pinfall – Valerie Melamid (12:37)
Valerie immediately let go of the pinfall and gets up at the same time that Blade does and Valerie stares back at him and extends her arm out for good sportsmanship, Blade, with tears in his eyes at coming so close only to be denied once again walks around the ring momentarily as Valerie continues to hold her hand out. Blade then walks up to Valerie like he is going to shake her hand, but then decides to instead pieface her to the ground out of frustration as he walks out of the ring and up the ramp. Valerie gets back up right away shaking her hand, looking angry at the disrespect shown by Blade. She then takes her title and walks up the ramp as the shot goes over to the announcers.
Bob: Such a disrespectful act by Blade, he lost, he didn’t need to do that. She won fair and square.
Jullian: How many times has Blade been so close Bob only to choke under the pressure, don’t you think it would get frustrating Bob. I expected he would have done much worse.
Bob: Maybe so Julian, but either way you look at it….on a somber note I must say that we are out of time. For this, the final edition of SCW Penance, this is Bob and Julian….wishing all of you good luck and best wishes.
Jullian: Idiot, you know we’re still working the special right….
The shot switches to the top of the stage where Valerie can be seen raising her title to the crowd and smiling warmly as a loud SCW chant breaks out in the Vice Pit. As the darkness slowly takes over, we see Valerie throw the title over her shoulder and bathe in the cheers and respect being shown. The view then totally fades away as an audio replay of the blow out special announcement from Ken and Austin is replayed over the webcast stream. July 4th…tune in now…watch a good brands final stand…who will appear? It’s anybody’s guess……..
