August 2nd 2018

The first Thrill after the summer break started with highlights of Survival, with Tank Sinatra winning the National Title ring,Axel Kaiser winning the Bruiserweight Title ring, and Dave Jumper winning the Heavyweight Title ring. Before the video package is over Dave Jumper comes to the stage, flanked by Dick Shrader. he points to the screen showing his highlights and then points to the Heavyweight Title around his waist. He grabs a microphone and gets into the ring.

Jumper: What more do I have to win? I have won Final Fight, I have won the legendary Pentagram Challenge, I have won the Survival Battle Royal, I am the longest reigning National Champion ever, and officially today I start my 4th Heavyweight Title reign...more than any other wrestler in the history of the NoW. There's literally NOTHING ELSE I can do here but rack up more and more victories. I have even made myself my OWN competition. By winning the Survival Battle Royal....I have become the #1 contender for MY Heavyweight Title. So I am sure President Richmond will name an opponent for me...someone who I have obviously beaten before, but he will still want a Main Event for the big Destiny show, so let's get on with it...how's it going to happen President Richmond? A fun little battle royal to give everyone a chance? Let's get down to business...I'll wait....

['Funky Boss' by the Beastie Boys plays and out comes NoW Owner, President and CEO Jason Richmond with a microphone of his own. he speaks as he comes down the aisle.]

Richmond: Well Mr. Jumper, you know me all too well it seems. You see, I was going to get to that, but since you're so impatient I suppose I can tell you now. But I cannot answer who your opponent will be Destiny...but I CAN tell you who your OPPONENTS will be...

[Richmond gets into the ring with a smirk on his face.]

Because while you are correct that you have indeed become your own #1 contender.... that does not mean the Heavyweight Title won't be defended at Destiny. Now to be fair you do deserve to have an advantage since you won Survival.... so....you will be the last man to enter the Nation of Wrestling first ever...ELMINATION CHAMBER!

[Dave Jumper looks annoyed but nods his head.]

I figured something like this would happen. You tried for over a calendar year to throw everyone you could at me to get the National Title off me and the only way you got me to do it is by making me choose to keep it longer...or to make the Heavyweight Title relevant again. So.... throw another thing at me that I can add to my trophy collection. Bring on the Elimination Chamber!

Elimination Chamber Qualifying match

CPL Punishment v. Damien James Reiker

CPL Punishment and Damien James Reiker did battle. Stemming from some tensions in the Survival Battle Royal the Renegades came down to the ring and distracted Punishment enough for Damien James Reiker to get the roll up victory and gain admission into the Elimination Chamber. After the match the Renegades hit the ring to beat down CPL Punishment, but Levi Carmina and the Mates came to make the save, clearing the ring. Levi Carmina smiled and put his feather boa around Punishment's neck and left him confused in the ring. Elimination Chamber Qualifying match

Manslaughter v. Chase Alexander Manslaughter squared off with rookie tag team specialist Chase Alexander in the next bout. Manslaughter got back in the win column and earned a spot in the Elimination Chamber.

A Stand Off

We see President Richmond backstage as he's approached by the Masters of Blood. Rowdy Richie steps up to him.

Rowdy Richie:

We haven't spoke lately there Richmond. Real cute, bringing in your buddies the Lords of Asgard to try and help with the Masters of Blood taking over. But you should know by now....whoever you put in front of us, we will knock them down.

Italian Roc: Fuggit About it! Before Richmond can say anything the Lords of Asgard appear behind him.

Oden: Whoa whoa whoa there. Bitchmond and the Lords of Asgard will never be 'buddies'. We don't believe in that The enemy of my enemy is my friend crap either. It was time for us to come back and kick ass and once again you were in our way. Now I need to get to the ring and square off with someone I haven't seen in over 15 years. I hope you make it to the elimination chamber little man.

[Oden pats Roc on the top of the head and the Lords of Asgard head out.] and once font color=white> Elimination Chamber Qualifying match
