IBW #5 – A New Chapter
Fall Throwdown is behind us, we have a new IBW World Champion in DEUS, and a new Global Champion in Dieter Haus. The two men will be colliding in our main event. We also found out who the person behind the messages to Firsty McLastname/Richie Stevens was – Blackout, a man who is new to the world of Armbar Error Society and is a complete mystery to all of us. He will be making his debut on this episode. Sterling Pierce has also confirmed that he has signed a contract, speaking of Pierce – he has announced he will be aiming to crown new tag-team champions at Snowy Showdown, so whichever two teams manages to impress most in the coming weeks will collide for the titles at the December event.

===============================
MATCH ONE
Singles Match
Submission Match
Ryan Davis vs. Blackout
This newcomer, Blackout, was revealed as the admirer for Richie Stevens – the one who was behind all the messages, all the threats – as he came out of nowhere at Fall Throwdown, hitting a brutal piledriver on Richie to send a message. Not much is known about this man, but we’ll be sure to find out quite a bit of him in the coming weeks. He makes his in-ring debut against Ryan Davis, who has been getting mentored by Richie as of late, giving Blackout the opportunity to send another message to the man he has his obsession with…will Davis be able to overcome this violent man? Or will Blackout successfully send a message to his much-admired Richie Stevens?
===============================
MATCH TWO
Singles Match
Dr. Steel vs. Nicholas Night
Both of these men came up short in the newcomers battle royal at Fall Throwdown, but now they both have a chance to redeem themselves just one week later. Dr. Steel has come to IBW in hopes the fans will assist him in taking over the world, as for Nicholas Night, he is looking to lead some kind of a revolution, both of these men have their goals. The question is which of the two will manage to take one step closer in accomplishing them? Steel and Night collide this week.
===============================
MATCH THREE
Triple-Threat Match
Richie Stevens vs. Seth vs. Doc Noxious
Richie Stevens didn’t manage to make it to the finals of the world championship tournament, but the defeat did not go in vein as the man he lost to actually won the title – meaning he lost to the right person. After his loss to DEUS, the stalker revealed themselves to be a newcomer by the name of ‘Blackout’. Seth made his debut in the newcomer’s battle royal, and so did Noxious. They both came up short, but they both impressed the world with their in-ring ability. Noxious was the runner-up in the match, but was eliminated by Infynity…Seth showed that he’s very talented in the ring, but didn’t manage to get the win either…all three of these men lost at Fall Throwdown, but one of them will get the chance to redeem themselves…who will it be?
===============================
MATCH FOUR
Global Championship #1 Contendership Match
Claus vs. Herschel Hiam Hebrewberg vs. Walter Zenon
Arguably the three men who deserve the championship opportunity the most – Claus came close to beating Dieter at Fall Throwdown, but didn’t manage to get the win as he was defeated by the German. Walter was also in the match, and was eliminated in a controversial fashion as he was counted out. As for Herschel, who hasn’t really managed to get any wins other than his tag-team win at Fall Throwdown…rumor has it, he has some issues with Dieter, being the reason he interfered in his match to attack him with a chair two weeks ago. Which of these three men will get their chance to knock off the new Global Champion at Gauntlet for Gold?
===============================
MATCH FIVE
Tag-Team Match
Murdock Protection Agency vs. Chell’s Sweeties
All four of these men failed to find success at Fall Throwdown, but now they have the opportunity to redeem themselves. Chell’s Sweeties made their debut in the newcomer’s battle royal, but both came up short as they were eliminated like everyone else other than Infynity. As for the Murdock Protection Agency, Salem came up short in the semi-finals, and Clayton led his team to an unfortunate defeat. But now that they’re back together as a team, there’s a very high chance they will be back on a roll…but can Chell’s Sweeties pull off the upset?
