There was excitement in the arena as a very special Friday 13th edition of Aftershock! Buddy Luv said that it was definitely unlucky for some, and The Prince told him that chronologically speaking this would be part eleven. Buddy Luv gave him a strange look and announced that there were several matches in store for fans including one half of the tag team champions, Chris Benoit, facing Oozaru; Statix was to face Banging - plus, the latest ICWW superstar, Devon Storm, set to face Marc Scott.

The Nomad made his way to the ring with a displeased expression on his face. He said that he heard what the Rock said, and since he again wasn't in the arena for show time, he could only assume that everything he said was a lie. The Nomad said that the Rock clearly didn't have the brains, balls or bazookas to face him one on one. Nomad then said that as usual, it was time to come on down and play - no to new talent. He called out anyone willing, and found himself confronted by Shaggy 2 Dope!

Shaggy hit the ring and went to work, taking Nomad down early with a swinging neck breaker, but the Nomad was up straight away. Shaggy swung for a short clothesline, but the Nomad locked up in a full nelson, and dropped him with a front Russian leg sweep. Shaggy hit the ropes, but the Nomad hit the deck, and countered on the way back with a tilt a whirl slam. Nomad pulled Shaggy up, and locked up with a front face lock, but Shaggy countered into a front suplex. Shaggy went for the cover but Nomad kicked out at one, and was whipped into the ropes, coming back with a diving forearm. Shaggy came back, right into a crescent kick, giving Nomad the opportunity to picked him up, and slam him down with the bible black, into a cover.

Backstage Albert Beefcake approached the Rock with a microphone. The Rock was just heading to the locker rooms with his duffel bag. Albert asked him if he had just seen what the Nomad had said. The Rock gave Albert the eye brow and said that he had caught the Nomad's words on a monitor as he entered the arena. The Rock said the Nomad was a piece of trash, and he didn't give a monkey's ass about how upset the Nomad was. The Rock said that he was heading to the locker rooms so he could change into his jabroni beating boots, so he could go and lay the smack down on the Nomad's candy ass, if you smell what the Rock is cooking.

One half of the tag team champions, Chris Benoit, made his way to the ring next to face off against Oozaru. Oozaru smirked, and tried to intimidate Benoit as the bell rang, showing off his size and strength by shoving Benoit. The granite faced Benoit stood back and looked out at the crowd before shoving Oozaru right back, and then began working on him with stinging chops. They tied up, allowing Benoit to swing to the back for a waist lock, but Oozaru reversed it and tied Benoit up in the full nelson. Oozaru looked for the full nelson bomb, but Benoit managed to counter the move into a bulldog! Benoit clamped down with the cross face, but they were much too close to the ropes, allowing Oozaru to escape. He looked for a clothesline, but Benoit ducked under it and took him down with a DDT! With Oozaru down the crippler went up stairs for a little air Canada action, with the diving head butt and a cover.

The Rar Rap hit the arena and the big Alaskan Bear-whale strutted his stuff to the ring to announce the Big Beefer nominations. He said that this round there were four nominees for elimination. They are; Statix, Shaggy 2 Dope, Violent J and Banging. Albert got down with a little bit of the Beefer Bust, before heading back.

Violent J made his way to the ring followed by a confused looking Paul Heyman. J took a microphone and held his heavyweight championship over his shoulder, before looking out at the crowd. He said that during his time in ICWW he'd achieved many wonderful things, but one of his greatest goals was always to obtain the heavyweight championship, and he had done that. He then announced that he would like to officially announce his retirement from wrestling. Paul Heyman snatched the mic. from the Y2Juggalo and asked him what the hell he thought he was doing. Heyman said that he had made Violent J a superstar, and that he couldn't turn his back on him after all of that work they put in together. He said the Violent J era was only just beginning, it couldn't end yet! Violent J gave Heyman and hug, and then dropped him with the psycho flip! Violent J picked up the microphone and continued his speech saying that in retiring he would like to hand the championship belt to his bhai, and the person he believed was the rightful person, Rockey Rakesh. Gwen Lucifer's theme music hit at this point, and the secretary to the mystery CEO made her way to the ring. She said that she didn't want to put a damper on the occasion, but she had just received an e-mail from the mystery CEO, telling her that the title would be allowed to go to Rakesh on his request, however Rakesh would be forced to defend the title after a contender process determined next week on Civil Action, and Aftershock. J let out one final, "oooh what a lovely tea party", before a mass of the ICWW roster made their way to the ring! Marz and Rakesh hoisted Violent J onto their shoulders, as he and his friends made their way down the aisle, J's last time.

Marc Scott remained in the ring after the emotional moment, for his singles encounter against new comer Devon "Crowbar" Storm. The arena was filled with the sound of a loud buzzing, as Storm ran his way to the ring wearing a hockey mask and wielding a live chainsaw! He jumped into the ring, prompting Marc Scott to dive straight to the outside, and start yelling at officials. Crowbar turned the chainsaw off and beckoned for a microphone. He said that mathematically speaking, the chances of there being a Friday that is the thirteenth of any given month, aren't that rare. In fact they're in the proximity of .983 ever year. That being said, he would like to wish everyone a happy Crowbar wielders day! Storm tossed the hockey mask and chainsaw aside, and jumped over the top rope with a swan dive on Marc Scott! Crowbar rummaged around under the ring, and pulled out a crowbar! He went to work on Scott with hard shots, before the Referee pulled it away and told them to take it to the ring. Crowbar tossed Scott inside to the corner, and geared up for some riding high bronco buster action, but Scott countered it with a big boot! With Storm keeled over Scott went for the cover, but Crowbar managed to kick out at two. Scott sent Storm into the ropes, and took him over with a high back body drop, and again went for the cover, only getting a two. Scott tied up, looking for a piledriver, but Crowbar managed to shift his weight to stay grounded, and hit the face jam! He went upstairs, and hit the diving leg drop before scoring a cover. Storm grabbed nodded and smiled at the crowd insanely, before retrieving his ice hockey mask, and running away to the locker rooms.

Backstage there was a knock on Gwen Lucifer's office door, as Abel stepped through! Michael Lucifer stood up and slammed his brother into the wall by the collar. He said that he knew he was at the hospital, and wanted to know what the hell he thought he was doing. Lucifer told him that he wasn't going to be a part of any pathetic attempt and head games, and told his brother to tell him exactly what he was up to straight away. Abel laughed and told him that he couldn't have his big brother in the hospital all alone, because you'd never know who might take advantage of the situation. The spirit of vengeance let his brother down, and demanded to know how he got in, to which he found out, that family could visit. Abel laughed at his brother, mocking him for not knowing who was behind all that had happened over the past few months. He told his brother that he was looking in all the obvious places, and he expected more from his scheming brother. Michael peered into the shadows as Abel left.

Banging made his way to the ring and said that if Statix could really predict the future, he wanted him to come out and prove it - Enter the Statix. The sensation made his way to the ring and asked Banging why he would need to prove anything. Banging said that the Pacific Connection was looking for young, promising superstars to recruit, and they thought that he had rather unique talents. Statix told him that lying wouldn't help anymore than using him to avoid matches in which they lose. Banging nodded and admitted that Statix was pretty convincing, but wanted to know how he was in the ring. Statix asked Banging if he understood the fighting spirit, before bringing his coat down slowly, and preparing himself for battle.

Banging tied up with Statix, taking him down with a hard gut wrench suplex. The Sensation made it to his feet, and went off the ropes, taking Banging down with a spinning heel kick. Statix put the boots to Banging, who caught his kick, but he countered with an enziguri! With Banging down he hit the ropes and connected with the rolling thunder. He climbed the top ropes, but climbed down before flying, just as Banging made it to his feet. Banging went on the attack with hard punches, driving Statix to the corner where he hit him hard with shoulder thrusts. With the sensation staggering, Banging hit him with the Kiwi Bomb! He went for the cover and scored the three fall. Banging scoffed, asking why Statix didn't predict that, before leaving.

Backstage the Nomad was walking through the arena corridors when suddenly the Rock came flying at him from behind! The Rock pounded down with hard clubbing shots to the back, but the Nomad turned the tables, fighting back with his own right hands. He slammed Rock head first into the wall, and then drove him straight through the near by coffee trestle table! With the Rock down Nomad taunted him, asking him who the jabroni was now, while still stomping down on the fallen Rock. Officials had to pull the Nomad back, and help the Rock to get medical attention.

The Hurricane and Matt Hardy made their way to the ring in an unprompted showing. The Hurricane said that their match for the tag team titles was interrupted by the vile combination of Oozaru and Banging, and he wanted justice for himself, and Mr. Mattitude. He called out the tag team champions, asking only for a rematch. The arena jumped up as Rhyno and Benoit ran down to the ring, straps in hand! Both champions swung the titles at the challengers, but they were ducked, and countered with hard right hands. Hurricane took Benoit down with a bulldog, while Rhyno and Hardy tussled it up in the corner. The referee was able to restore order as Benoit got the better of Hurricane and tagged in to Rhyno. Rhyno sent Hurricane into the ropes and took him down with a ring shaking clothesline. He picked the super hero up, looking to inflict further pain with a powerbomb, but the Hurricane managed to slip out and hit a DDT! Rhyno tagged in Benoit who did not expect the tag, and showed some displeasure with Rhyno, before taking Hurricane down with a stinging chop! Benoit stomped down on Hurricane, and locked in the crossface! Hurricane was too far from the ropes to reach, but somehow managed to slap the extended hand of his partner! Hardy climbed to the top rope and caught Benoit in the lower back with a diving leg drop, and then slammed Rhyno down with a hard clothesline as he jumped into the ring. Hardy dropped Benoit with the twist of fate, and then tagged back to the Hurricane, who went from the top with a big splash. Rhyno tried to get back into the ring as Hurricane got the three count!

The Hurricane and Matt Hardy celebrated their championship win, raising the titles above their heads, while Benoit and Rhyno backed up the entrance aisle. Benoit shoved Rhyno, and the two began arguing as they made their way to the showers, while the new tag team champs celebrated as Aftershock came to an end.
