PRE MAIN EVENT
Chris Slaughter (C) vs Hope Sweet
Stipulation: Hardcore Match / Legacy Title
Result: Things were about to get violent here in TXW, more so than normal that is as Hope Sweet was going to challenge Chris Slaughter for his championship in a hardcore match. Both were known for not exactly being sane and neither was shy about pushing boundaries in the ring. This one was about to be a good show.

The lights go out and "Crazy Bitch" by Buckcherry begins to play, the arena filling with coloured lights. Hope comes walking out, a smirk sat on her face, wasting little time before walking down the ramp towards the ring. Once she was at ringside she stands there for a moment before heading over to the steel steps. Walking up them since eventually crawls into the ring, taking time to pose and tease the crowd before her music cuts out.

The arena is filled with a deep gravely voice as "Nihil Strength" starts to play. The arena had been blacked out only to be lit by a white and red strobe light that flashes to the heavy beat of the song. Out comes Chris Slaughter, dragging his title on the ground behind him and looking as demonic as always. Standing at the top of the ramp he looks around at the crowd before letting out a roar unleashing a waterfall of pig's blood from his mouth. He glares straight down the ramp at Hope for a moment before starting his march to the ring. He wastes little time getting into the ring once there, he was ready for a fight.

His music barely had a chance to cut off and the ref didn't have a chance to grab the title before it was tossed aside and Slaughter went on the attack. He wasn't playing games after his last showing, even more so because his gold was on the line. As much as Hope liked the pain eating this heavy shots from Slaughter wasn't doing her any good in the long run. It was clear this wasn't going to be a technical match, not that it ever was with Slaughter but this truly was a fight. He used his size to his advantage early on, giving Hope no moment to rest from his onslaught. After getting endlessly punched and tossed around the ring a bloody nose had made an appearance. The attack didn't stop there though as Hope is lifted up into a gorilla press position before getting tossed over the top rope and out of the ring. She comes crashing down on the outside, leaving the lover of hardcore motionless for a moment.

Slaughter lets out a roar as he could feel the adrenaline pumping through him with this brutal attack and he wasn't going to give Hope a moment. He climbs out of the ring and his eyes are set on Hope who had been showing a bit of life again by crawling around. Slaughter grabs a handful of Hope hair and goes to pull her up only for her to explode and hit him with something in the face. That something is revealed to be a screwdriver she found in a toolbox under the ring. This is a hardcore match after-all and CJA had done away with the DQ rule anyways. The action opened up a good cut across the forehead of Slaughter leaving him in a mask of his own blood early on. Hope went on the attack from here before Slaughter could clear the blood from his own eyes, jumping at him and attack with her claw like nails. She wasn't going to be able to ever lift Slaughter so she needed to bring him down to size in another way, going after his knee. Over and over again she kicked at his knee, even pulling a chair away from the crowd at ringside to better assault the joint. Her attack works as it drops the big man to one knee, putting him on a better level with Hope herself. To show her twisted mind she plants a kiss on Slaughter, blood and all, before planting him down for a DDT on the outside.

Hope took it all in for a moment though was showing some trouble getting Slaughter back into the due to the size difference. She decides it might be best for her to set up her next attack as Slaughter was starting to stir. She starts tossing everything she can find under the ring into it. Chairs, trash cans, sledgehammer, a full tool box...even a table. All of it gets put into the ring with Hope climbing in after. She sets the table up before grabbing the trash can. Slaughter had got up, shaking the cobwebs out though his face was still crimson. He sees Hope in the ring waiting for him. The big man slides in and quickly gets to his feet. As he was doing this Hope charged at him with the trash can only Slaughter was quicker, getting his boot up and kicking the can back into her own face. It caused the already bleeding nose of Hope to explode and was followed up with a clothesline that nearly took her head off. Slaughter could smell the finish and didn't give Hope a moment to rest. He drags her up her her hair, smashing his fist directly into her jaw nearly knocking her out cold. Instead though he sets her up in the turnbuckle before walking to the opposite side of the ring. He charges at her before slamming his knee into her face which is know as 'Slaugher to Prevail'.

The match could've ended there but Slaughter wanted to make a point, picking Hope up into a powerbomb position before putting her through the table she set up earlier with not one but two powerbombs known as 'Go To Hell'. At this point Slaughter does pin her though in a very suggestive way. Putting both of Hope's legs over his shoulders before pinning her shoulders down. The ref counts three and Slaughter gets his hand raised. Hope fought hard and even left the big man covered in his own blood but tonight wasn't her night.

MAIN EVENT
Eddie McGinlay (C) vs Matthew Taylor
Stipulation: Lumberjack Match / World Championship
Result: It was time for the main event and this one was sure to bring the action. The current TXW World champion Eddie McGinlay and Matthew Taylor had been having a mini war brewing between them that needed it's conclusion...at least for this year. They would meet in a lumberjack match in the final match of the year.

Of course that means the ring would be surrounded by members of the TXW roster. "Scars" plays to signal the arrival of the lumberjacks for this match. A large portion of the roster was out here, some that had even been part of the show tonight. The most notable out of the sea of bodies were Eddie's partner, Chris Slaughter, who has stitches in his forehead from his match just before this as well as all of The Dark Order. Once they were all out it was time for the people actually taking part in this match. "Hail to the Victor" began to play first and with it came a thick crawling white smoke. Matthew Taylor had made his way out and had his back facing the ring for a moment before turning around looking to do his gun gesture however he is clubbed from behind by Eddie McGinlay. It was clear he couldn't wait to get this one started.

The shot from behind sent Taylor flying down the ramp, coming to a stop about half way before simply getting hit with a clothesline the moment he got back to his feet. McGinlay grabs him by his jacket and tights before tossing him down the rest of the ramp. The lumberjacks around the ring do their job of getting Taylor into the ring before McGinlay can do further damage before the bell even sounds. Once he got into the ring himself, parting the lumberjacks like the red sea, the ref called for the bell to make this one official. Taylor was attempting to regain his composure but wasn't given the chance as Eddie continues his attack, pummeling the smaller Taylor with clubbing shots across the back before ripping his jacket off him and tossing it out at the lumberjacks. Taylor himself was quick to follow as Eddie tossed him over the top rope as well.

Taylor had already taken a beating simply because of the power from Eddie, each shot was enough to end this match. His back was red and bruising from the attack though he was getting helped to his feet by the lumberjack who were ready to slide him back into the ring. Eddie however had other plans which saw him getting out of the ring to go after him. He gets a clear path to hit Taylor with another clothesline, this time doing it after running towards him. However the attack is stopped when a bit of a commotion happens on the outside with the lumberjack and in the process Eddie it poked in the eyes. The camera didn't catch it but it was done by a member of The Dark Order.

As the commotion continued, Slaughter stepped in to get everyone to back away from his partner. Even though they were out numbered there was still a fear about picking a fight with them. Eddie managed to clear his eye and turned his attention back to Taylor who had been rolled back into the ring. As he reached up to grab a rope to pull himself up Taylor rushes at him and hits him with a baseball slide dropkick. The force was enough to knock Eddie back and into the barricade though it seemed to only piss him off. The second attack slowed him down slightly more as Taylor puts it all on the line, jumping between the ropes for a suicide dive which hits it's mark. The momentum was shifting in his direction now even with the lumberjacks making quick work of getting the men back into the ring, though Eddie eats a few cheap shots once again for his trouble.

Taylor backs up looking like he was calling for Eddie to get up, likely wanting to go for another charging attack to make up for the size difference. As Eddie gets to one knee Taylor runs towards him but out of nowhere Eddie grabs hold of Taylor and plants him down with a Fallaway Samoan Drop. Taylor was instantly winded from the move, coughing up a lung. A Glasgow Kiss (running headbutt) followed by a Tartan Tomb (tombstone piledriver) was enough to end Matthew's night here despite his brief rally midway. Eddie McGinlay is still your TXW World champion.

POST SHOW SEGMENT
With the main event finished it was time for everyone to clear out. Matthew Taylor gets some assistance getting to the back while Eddie McGinlay was celebrating his victory. The lumberjacks also started to clear the ringside since their job was done. Not everyone leaves though as Slaughter stays out there with Eddie as does all the members of The Dark Order. As the sea of bodies vanished they remained standing around the ring glaring in at the Beasts of War. It didn't take long for the big men to take notice of what was going on around them and they took a fighting stance. The Dark Order remained motionless for a moment before all grouping together on the ramp side of the ring. Were they leaving without doing anything? It seemed like a bad idea to all attack from the same direction. Suddenly the reason is revealed as someone else slips into the ring from the other side, diving into the back of Eddie's leg and chopping him down.

The brawl was on with Slaughter turning to look at who just launched the attack but before he gets his hands on the person The Dark Order flood into the ring, Mike Malice being sure to go after his former partner. It's pure chaos for a time, the Beasts showing why they have been so dominate this year as even with just two members now they are bringing the fight hard. Both Tara and Dakota had been tossed out of the ring by them but the number were eventually too much. Slaughter was tossed out of the ring first, his face one again covered in blood as the stitches ripped open. Eddie was quick to follow getting tossed out of the ring before every single member of the Dark Order was back in the ring including the unknown figure. For the first time a clear look of them was had though they were covered in a long black cloak and had a mask on, one that a plague doctor would have worn. Had they just recruited another member? The was unknown as it seemed that everyone besides Mike were actually unsure of who this person that just helped them out even was.

The final shot of Dark Oasis is that of the Beasts slowly walking back up the ramp, shouting at the Dark Order in the ring. The song "Savages" playing...a theme no one had heard before either. But the Dark Order stood tall in the ring and the mystery person remained with them.
