Last Friday was a wild one, with Haviko stealing the 365 title by impersonating Inferno and entering a match he wasn't supposed to be in. The Rogues, Elliot Tyler and Casey Ferreira threw away their goodwill with the fans to start down the Road of Darkness in their quest to officially hold the 365 Tag Team Championship belts – belts they stole last week! We have a 5-match card full of shenanigans to get through on this one, so let's get after it.

Another week of 365 Wrestling kicks off with the second episode of Stein Time and our host, Big Sawyer Stein, is using his show as platform for a little Wrestler's Court. Our prosecutor is none other than Thelonious Jovinius Harlequin, coming out to the ring accompanied by his two Ephialteses carrying the 5th Dimension trunk portal. Thelonious is pressing charges against the dastardly Zack Andrews for slicing up The Mittens. Zack is brought to the ring, hands bound, by the returning Princess Petunia. (For the uninitiated, Petunia is a princess in the 5th Dimension and is a sentient Mitten.) The trial doesn't last long because Zack admits his crimes with glee. The jury is the two Ephialteses, which seems kind of rigged against Andrews, and a guilty verdict is rendered very quickly. Thelonious requests Petunia to carry out the punishment but she refuses! She declares her love for Zack Andrews and frees him! Zack is now the heir to the throne of the 5th Dimension and as such he now has command of the Ephialteses, who are instructed to beat down Thelonious with haste. This is a shocking turn of events that has the crowd confused and angry.

Jae-Lynn Hill vs Becky Beech
This match whipped ass. Super fun back and forth between those two. Beech hit a big powerslam, followed by a pretty fantastic running meteroa. Hill kicks out of a three count and gets up to murderize Beech with a heavy clothesline, then battering her with a fury of mounted punches. Hill has a Bob Holly-esque dropick, which is to say a fucking beautiful dropkick. Then Hill hit a fantastic DDT and a lovely crossface that Beech powered through to get a rope break. Crowd support for Becky remains at an all-time high. 365 Nation loves Becky Beech. Beech's short-arm clotheslines hit hard and she laid Hill out with a couple. Then followed them up with a huge pump-handle slam. Match ends after Beech hit a huge X-Factor on Hill. (I should really find out if Becky has a name for her version of this move.) Big win for Becky Beech. Dash Dauntless and the 365 Women's Title feels like it's right in front of Beech now...

Johnny Rostyn vs Elliot Tyler
The Rogues and Moment of Truth meet again, after their chaotic tag battle last week. This time we're going to get them all in singles matches against each other. Both men came out accompanied by their tag team partners. Tyler and Ferreira came out and taunted former fans with their ill-gotten tag team title belts before giving them to some smug piece of shit fan in the front row to hold. This is a pretty chaotic match with incredibly high levels of cheating on the part of the Rogues. Ferreira was cheating and interfering at levels barely witnessed since late '97 Chyna. Someone from the crowd yelling at Tyler to respect Ref Ronny got Tyler responding by spitting his gum at Ronnie. The gum flew out of the ring onto the floor, where Tyler later proceeded to pick it up and put it back into his mouth, which garnered him “You sick fuck!” chants. Rostyn managed to stop Tyler from putting the gum into his mouth, which I think we were all better off not having seen. Tyler tossed Rostyn around and beat him up pretty decently, but Rostyn held his own against the Burden of Tradition. Tyler wins the match when he pulls a distracted Rostyn through the bottom two ropes and rolls him up. The Rogues grab their belts from the aforementioned fan and book it into the back. We get the next chapter later in the night, with Casey Ferreira vs Sawyer Stein.

Where else other than professional wrestling can you see and interact with a sentient Mitten? Princess Petunia rep.

Zack Andrews (w. Petunia) vs Lak Siddartha (w. Ramone Carlton)
It's Zack vs Lak, battle of the wrestlers that rhyme. The new heir to the 5th Dimension throne starts things off by ambushing Lak with the sledgehammer. But Lak is a monster and does his monster thing of weathering the storm. Lak takes control and batters Andrews with his incredibly yelly offence. The forearm shots and knees to the gut from Lak are incredibly stiff, and seem pretty fucking devstating. Zack took Ramone Carlton's hat! Especially good because he kept wearing it throughout the night. Great stuff. It didn't matter what Andrews did or how Petunia tried to interfere to assist her new love, Lak was just too much. Big F5 from Lak to Andrew for the win. Kinda shocked that Zack lost after finding out he's going to be royalty, but big win for Lak nonetheless.

Casey Ferreira vs Sawyer Stein
We finish up our Rogues vs Moment of Truth best of 2 series that we started earlier in the night. Casey started the match as I've seen him do a number of times – diving out of the ring to surprise his opponent. Unfortunately he landed on his fellow Rogue, Elliot Tyler. Stein and Ferreira beat the shit out of each other, with a lot of hard hitting. A cry of “Not his beautiful face!” from the crowd as Casey was laying in some punches resulted in him taking the advice and instead delivering some brutal, heavy chops to Stein. A huge falcon arrow from Ferreira gets a 2-count. What?! NO ONE KICKS OUT OF THE FALCON ARROW!! Stein ends up sitting on the top rope and manages to block a hurricanrana attempt from Ferreira, leaving him to deliver a lovely missile dropkick. Stein hits a huge superkick and then gets Ferreira up in a fireman's carry only to fling him up and let him come crashing down into a huge double-knee gutbuster that gets a 2-count. Stein kicks out of a ginormous frogsplash – of which, Ferreira has one of the best in the game today. They might be faces, but Moment of Truth still knows how to get a win by any means necessary, as Rostyn pulls Stein's feet up to the ropes for the assisted-pin victory. Moment of Truth takes the second of the Rogues/MoT matches tonight. Big win for Stein.

Haviko (c) vs Travis Williams – 365 Global Championship
Haviko stole the 365 Global Championship last week. Sure, he got the pin for the win, but this fucking guy wasn't even in the match! For his first defence he has to face one of the best wrestlers to ever come out of the Canadian west coast, former 365 Champion, “The Professional” Travis Williams. This is a pretty insane match between two veterans. Williams opens with a fury, hitting Haviko with a lovely Busaiku Knee and getting a 2-count right out of the gate. But Haviko is nothing if not wily, with a huge ring IQ, and he slows things down and starts to pick at Williams' arm. The strategy pays off when Williams goes for his patented springboard clothesline and ends up collapsing near the ropes. Williams pays tribute to his tag-team partner, Judas Icarus, with the lariat off the ropes shortly after the flipping fail. This gives Williams a chance to lock in a Figure-Four, but Haviko manages to will himself to the ropes. Haviko may have turned darksided but he ain't no damned coward. Kill switch by Haviko! (This will always be the Unprettier to me, dammit!) Williams one of the best in the game at the near-fall, kicking out at 2.99999999. The match ends when Travis gets in another Figure-Four but this time, working through the injured shoulder, bridges up into a Figure-Eight and gets Haviko to tap out. When this match got announced right after Haviko won the title, we pleaded for Travis to come save us, and save us he did.

I am so happy with this turn of events, but the wrestling nerd in me can't help but feel like Haviko's big moment – and make no mistake, it was a HUGE moment – was kind of thrown away here, but it's okay because Travis is holding the big 365 belt again and all feels right in this corner of the wrestling word. For now.
