(EAW Intro Plays…)
(Tumbleweed rolls through the desert of Texas, the dust devils pick up some of the sand, twirling it in a circular motion. The screeching of a hawk can be heard in the distance as the camera then pans to an old western town, outfitted with a saloon, brothel, sheriff’s station, hotel, general store, bank among other things. As the streets fill with people, the sun blazes hot on the town of Showdown. The heat amasses from the dirt, when in the distance, a rider appears slowly making their way into town as a man speaks in a deep, husky Texan tone….)
Narrator: They told me this day would come, the moment a rider approached the city of Showdown on their pale horse like the grim reaper. Sanctuary is never an option we get to choose, most never find it. Life has a way of teaching us lessons and in this blazing heat, the only thing left to do is burn.
(The rider gets closer and closer, finally catching the attention of others as they stop. One woman with her cowboy boots kicked up on the railing sitting back comfortably, white hair flowing from under her hat, lifts it slowly to show that of Aurora Monroe, her eyes turn to the rider, she is flanked by two other ladies, in matching black and white dresses, guns straddled on their thighs, blonde hair flowing, that being MaryBecca.…)
Narrator: The unknown has always been a factor, children learn quickly that when you play with fire, you get burned. When the element though becomes the tool to decide who is right and wrong, what person will advance and who will melt away in the brimstone, then and only then will those in the town of Showdown truly understand what is approaching.
(The rider starts shaping to form, the three women watch as others now gather in front of the saloon. The Sheriff’s station door opens, walking out is a muscular man with blonde hair, tipping his hat back, the shiny badge catching the sunlight….he is Adam Lucas. His two deputies armed with rifles join him, Jake Smith and Chris Elite…)
Narrator: My grandfather used to tell me stories of a day a rider would come into town and change everything. Showdown is a peaceful place that gets its share of activity. No longer are the days of the white and black hats symbolizing good and evil. Everyone is out for themselves, which is why many find the only way is Trial By Fire.
(Amir Yusuf is seen in a cowboy getup walking out of the saloon, another man is on a black horse, brushing him down, ready to saddle up, that being Theron Nikolas, the rider catches their eyes as well.)
Narrator: But fire is always uncontrollable, they say that even the Devil can’t keep it contained in his own “Playground”, a place of pure hell where no one really wins, they only survive.
(The scene shifts to a Shootist in a nice suit and white hat, that being Lucas Knight, leaning against the doorway, sipping his whiskey, the lovely Pandora Paisley in an all black cowgirl getup walks up to him, they both turn to see Jonny Airhart being a card shark inside the saloon, they are known as the Rogues Gallery, eyeing the rider as he comes closer, glaring with every movement.)
Narrator: But in our Darkest Hour, right before the dawn, where no one seems to be traveling on the road the rider is on, slowly making their way from town to town bringing with him a Scorched Earth that will burn feverishly. Yet, the tales of those who have lived to witness their appearance talk about screams of agony and pain, flesh melting away from their bodies all for the chance at immortality. Is it worth it? Stepping into a Ring of Fire for retribution and revenge?
(The rider now is almost to the town, a man dressed in all black is leaning against the wall by the bank, looking ready to rob it, but the rider catches his eye, then turns to the Sheriff who has been watching him the entire time, that being Impact. Through a window at the saloon, two cute girls dressed in pink and white dresses peek out the window while watching Airhart hustle people in the card game. Usagi Senshi and Ayu Megumi both look at one another and actually smile….)
Narrator: Some may find beauty within the flames, they see destruction as a fitting ending and a gorgeous beginning, what they lost in the fire, they will find in the ash, so to speak, but what if what they lost is more than just their pride? What if everything that hinged on one spark became the antithesis to everything that you stand for. Turning you into a hideous creature?
(A stunning Olivia Tate sits at the bar in a purple and lavender extravagant dress surrounded by men buying her drinks, she then turns to the other woman across the saloon holding a deck of cards, glaring at her in cowgirl gear, but Lexi’s eyes then shift to the cowboy who just walked into the saloon slamming some silver pieces on the bar, looking around, smirking, in Limmy Monaghan. The rider gets closer as outside a man in striped jail gear with a ball and chain in his hands, rough and dirty turns to see the man on the horse now entering the town limit, that man is Charlie Marr…)
Narrator: Whether it’s the Fire and Steel or it comes down to the Lake in flames one will drown in, there is a Three Degrees of Hell that has culminated in his arrival. Showdown looks ready, even those who don’t follow the law but are held in the highest regard understand that fire? It has no prejudice, it needs no reason and when it is time to burn, it will burn.
(As a pair of shiny boots with gold spurs cling on the wooden floor, the individual turns the corner with her flowing hair, looking at the rider, her gloved hand right at the revolver ready to draw, for Kassidy Heart is ready for any gunfight but her attention is then taken away from the rider, as she sees a man get out of a wagon, dressed in a white suit, laughing and throwing out money to any prostitute that surrounds him in Ronan Malosi.)
Narrator: But whether you are rich or poor, a winner or a loser, the devil never cared, taking what he wants, who he wants and when he wants it. But as the rider comes to town, all these fighters stand, trigger fingers in place, ready to draw, because they know that death is here, all in a fiery grave, but not their bodies or spirit, but their hope, dreams and chances for this will alter the course for some and pave the lighted road for others.
(The Rider arrives, his white horse with red eyes looking stoic. The rider can be seen, in all white with a black skull mask. A gold belt hanging from the side of the horse. The Sheriff turns but only to see three women walk out of the saloon, each of them guns drawn. Cameron Ella Ava, Harper Lee and Veena Adams. The rider stops, getting off his horse, hois black gloved hand on his revolver, the other to his side…)
Narrator: And in this moment, the devil will get their due, the fight will be determined by the fires of hell, they will burn in the….
(The rider takes off his mask to reveal himself as TLA, smiling with his eyes suddenly in flames….)
Narrator: …. DIA DEL DIABLO.
(The camera pans away from the town of Showdown before multiple shots are heard and flames ignite.)

(Attack on Titan The FInal Season Presents…. DIA DEL DIABLO!)
(The camera pans around the sold out San Antonio, AlamoDome as “Ring of Fire” by Johnny Cash plays throughout the arena. The signs are up, the Mexican Flags are waving, many are wearing the merchandise of their favorite wrestlers and as the fireworks go off on stage and the flames shoot up, the deafening tone of the stadium grows louder and louder by the second as it shows the Showdown broadcast team of Deadprez, Eve and Gavin Kirkland.)
Deadprez: WE ARE HERE LIVE AT THE ALAMODOME AND THIS IS SHOWDOWN’S LAST BRAND FREE PER VIEW OF SEASON 15, DIA DEL DIABLO! I AM DEADPREZ, HERE WITH ME IS THE LOVELY EVE AND OF COURSE THE MAN WITH THE SILVER TONGUE, GAVIN KIRKLAND!
Eve: That is right and we return with Dia Del Diablo which was on hiatus for a number of years and talk about a card here tonight! Showdown has definitely made the most of the fire themed element and all topped off by the massive structure that we have hanging above us, the TOWERING INFERNO for the Answers World Championship! TLA will defend against Harper Lee, Cameron Ella Ava and Veena Adams.
Gavin Kikrland: I am literally scared thinking about that! Seeing my Kween get burned or the soccer mom have her purple hair go up in flames! Or Milf’s chest pop like kettle corn! The horror! But that is not all, we have a Three Degrees of Hell between Adam Lucas and Impact! The winner will definitely set themselves up for a World Title match! What about my two beauties! Olivia Tate and Lexi! The Devil’s Playground match between The Rogues Gallery and Aurora Monroe with MaryBecca! The last match to settle the score between Abel Atami and Roberto De La Rosa!
Eve: Don’t forget that we also have Kassidy Heart taking on Ronan Malosi in the Lake of Fire! Ronan is sooooo going to drown! Theron Nikolas and Amir Yusuf wrestle in a Trial by Fire! We also have two titles on the line here tonight and so much more!
Deaprez: And that was a great segue way because we are going to kick it off with the FIRST OF THREE TITLE MATCHES HERE TONIGHT! SO LET’S GO TO THE RING WITH THE BEAUTIFUL GINA ROMANO!
(The crowd continues to cheer but they explode in even bigger cheers when the graphic pops up for the first match of the night…)
( https://i.ibb.co/tpdNTv8/ICEACESHAIRCAREKIGNS.png )
(Dia Del Diablo fades to ringside, where the ring is surrounded by flaming coals at ringside. A ramp has been placed next to the ring at the end of the stage’s ramp to allow the wrestlers to enter the ring, and the camera finally fades to Gina Romano, holding a microphone in her hand.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen… The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
Gina Romano: AND IT IS A SCORCHED EARTH MATCH FOR THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!!
(‘Thrill’ by Band-Maid hits, and the crowd explodes into cheers as Usagi Senshi and Ayu Megumi, the Ice Aces, make their way out to the stage together. They both look focused and prepared for this match knowing what’s on the line: the Unified Tag Team Championships. As Ayu and Usagi make their way onto the ramp next to the ring, they look down at all of the coals, covered in flames. The two don’t lose focus, making their way in the ring as they know what’s most important tonight.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first… At a combined weight of 245 pounds… THE TEAM OF AYU MEGUMI AND USAGI SENSHI, THE IIIIIICCCEEE AACCCESSS!!!!!!
Deadprez: Showdown’s Ice Aces are here, and this might just be the biggest opportunity they’ve gotten so far! There’s no doubt that they want to become Unified Tag Team Champions, but winning tonight won’t be easy-
Gavin Kirkland: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! LETS GO ICE ACES!!!! WIN THOSE TITLES, YOU GOT THIS!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Eve: 🤦♀️ I will never understand why you’re allowed to commentate matches with women in it, or matches with Limmy Monaghan in it, but I will say these two have an amazing connection and they have a great chance of winning those tag titles because of that. The Haircare Kings are a great team, but the Ice Aces might be able to take this one.
(‘Shake It’ by Metro Station begins to play, and while the cheering continues, Chris Elite and Jake Smith walk out to the stage with the Unified Tag Team Championships around their waist. The two Champions still have a few bandages around them following Shock Value, but it doesn’t stop them from walking down the ramp towards the ring, not giving the flaming coals any thought as they only keep their attention on their challengers, who are currently inside of the ring. Jake and Chris make their way up the second ramp, entering the ring before the officials remove the ramp.)
Gina Romano: And their opponents.. At a combined weight of 420 pounds….. THEY ARE THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, JAKE SMITH AND CHRIS ELITE, THE HAIIRRRCCARRREEE KIIIIIIIIIINGS!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Jake Smith and Chris Elite went through grueling matches just last week, so the Ice Aces have a slight advantage tonight. That being said, the Haircare Kings are far more experienced, and they absolutely have what it takes to leave Dia Del Diablo with their titles.
Gavin Kirkland: NO! That’s not gonna happen. The Haircare Kings might have retained the Championships in the past, but that’s because they weren’t facing the Ice Aces!
Eve: We’re just gonna have to see! This could go either way, and seeing what’s outside of the ring, it probably won’t matter that Jake and Chris still have a few wounds to heal from, because I don’t expect anyone to leave this match in good shape. :lupe:
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Deadprez: HERE WE GO! THIS SCORCHED EARTH MATCH IS ON AND ALL FOUR ELITISTS CHARGE RIGHT AT EACH OTHER! JAKE SMITH AND AYU MEGUMI BEGIN PUNCHING AWAY AT EACH OTHER, MEANWHILE CHRIS ELITE IS ABLE TO TAKE USAGI SENSHI DOWN WITH A DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN! CHRIS ELITE TRIES TO PUNCH AT USAGI, BUT USAGI IS ABLE TO PUSH CHRIS ELITE OFF OF HER AS HE STUMBLES TOWARDS THE ROPES! USAGI SENSHI CHARGES IN, AND SHE CLOTHESLINES CHRIS ELITE OUT OF THE RING! CHRIS ELITE WAS SENT OUT OF THE RING ONLY SECONDS INTO THE MATCH!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT??? NO!! HOW!?!? CHRIS ELITE GRABBED ONTO THE TOP ROPE TO STOP HIMSELF FROM FALLING INTO THE HOT COALS!! This isn’t fair, he should be getting burnt to a crisp right now! Whatever, I don’t care! Usagi Senshi is pulling Chris back up to his feet on the apron and I have no doubt that the Ice Aces are still gonna win this match! YES, USAGI SENSHI ATTACKS CHRIS WITH AN ELBOW STRIKE!
Eve: BUT SHE MISSES AS CHRIS ELITE IS ABLE TO DUCK UNDER IT, SENDING HIS SHOULDER INTO HER MIDSECTION! CHRIS ELITE NOW DIVING OVER THE TOP ROPE WITH A SUNSET FLIP PIN, AND I THINK CHRIS ELITE IS ABOUT TO STEAL THIS ONE WHILE AYU MEGUMI IS STILL FOCUSED ON JAKE SMITH!
OOOOONNNNEEEEEE-
Eve: Usagi Senshi with a quick kick out, AND NOW USAGI SWINGS AT CHRIS ELITE WITH A CLOTHESLINE ATTEMPT, BUT CHRIS ELITE DUCKS UNDER IT BEFORE KICKING HER IN THE STOMACH! That pinfall right there was the exact issue these two teams may face in a tornado tag team match! With everyone in the ring there may come times where they’re too distracted to even notice a pinfall taking place!
Deadprez: Chris Elite still in control of Usagi Senshi, and Chris sends her into the corner before beginning to stomp away at her, and there’s nothing the referee can do about this as there are no disqualifications! In the meantime Jake Smith has Ayu Megumi in a headlock, BUT AYU MEGUMI IS ABLE TO PUSH HERSELF TOWARDS JAKE AND RUN TOWARDS THE CORNER, SENDING JAKE RIGHT INTO THE TURNBUCKLES AS HE’S FORCED TO LET GO OF HER! Ayu Megumi taking a few steps back as Jake leans into the corner to catch his breath, AND NOW AYU COMES CHARGING IN, DELIVERING A RUNNING BACK ELBOW!
Gavin Kirkland: AYU DOESN’T STOP THERE! AYU CONNECTS WITH AN ENZUIGIRI ON JAKE SMITH, NOW PIN HIM! PIN HIM, HURRY AND PIN HIM AND WIN THE TAG TITLES!!!
Eve: Ayu doesn’t go for the cover, but she does grab Jake Smith from behind, AND SHE TRIES TO SET UP FOR THE STARSTORM- BUT JAKE IS ABLE TO LAND A BACK ELBOW TO THE FACE! Jake Smith stumbles away from Ayu needing to recover a slight bit after the enzuigiri, AND THIS ALLOWS AYU TO RUN IN FROM BEHIND, DELIVERING A DROPKICK THAT ALMOST SENDS JAKE THROUGH THE ROPES!
Deadprez: The only reason Jake managed to stay in the ring is because he grabbed onto those ropes at the last second, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI IS TRYING TO FORCE JAKE OUT OF THE RING, BUT JAKE FREES HIMSELF BEFORE GRABBING AYU MEGUMI- AND NOW THERE’S A JAWBREAKER FROM ONE HALF OF THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Chris Elite is still trying to stomp at Usagi in the meantime, BUT USAGI GRABS CHRIS’ BOOT, AND NOW SHE SWEEPS CHRIS’ OTHER LEG OUT FROM UNDER HIM BEFORE FINALLY PULLING HERSELF BACK UP TO HER FEET, AND QUICKLY RUNNING TO HELP AYU!
Gavin Kirkland: JAKE SMITH LIFTED AYU MEGUMI UP, BUT THANK GOD, USAGI SENSHI WAS ABLE TO PULL HER DOWN BEFORE KICKING JAKE SMITH IN THE STOMACH! USAGI SENSHI WITH AN ARM DRAG TAKING JAKE SMITH TO THE MAT, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI RUNS THE ROPES BEFORE DELIVERING A DROPKICK! JAKE SMITH DROPS TO THE MAT, BUT THE ICE ACES DON’T HAVE TIME TO CAPITALIZE AS CHRIS ELITE IS BACK UP!
Eve: Ayu Megumi runs at Chris Elite, and now Chris Elite attacks with an elbow strike! Chris tries to fight back, but now Usagi Senshi runs in and starts punching at Chris alongside Ayu Megumi! The Ice Aces have Chris Elite outnumbered, and now it looks like they’re on fire as they begin pummeling half of the Unified Tag Team Champions after already taking out Jake Smith! Usagi Senshi sends Chris into the corner, AND NOW AYU RUNS IN BEFORE DELIVERING A FOREARM!
Deadprez: CHRIS IS STILL IN THE CORNER, AND NOW USAGI SENSHI RUNS IN BEFORE DELIVERING A DROPKICK, TAKING CHRIS ELITE TO THE MAT! USAGI SENSHI NOW WITH THE COVER TO PUT CHRIS ELITE AWAY!
Gavin Kirkland: YES, YES YES YES THAT’S IT!!!!
OOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!
TT-
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT!?!? NO, HOW DID HE KICK OUT!!!?????
Eve: We’re still early into the match, but it’s clear that the Ice Aces are a fantastic tag team and their ability to work together can’t be understated! Usagi Senshi stopped what she was doing to rush to Ayu’s aid, and it looks like that paid off as these two gained the upper hand ever since! Ayu Megumi now starting to pull Jake Smith back up to his feet as she noticed him slowly starting to move-
Deadprez: AND JAKE SMITH LANDS A RIGHT HAND, STAGGERING AYU! USAGI SENSHI RUNS IN, BUT JAKE SMITH QUICKLY LANDS A BICYCLE KICK! AYU MEGUMI TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THE TIME JAKE TOOK TO DELIVER THE KICK THOUGH, AS SHE RUSHES AND TAKES JAKE DOWN ONTO THE MAT! Jake is able to turn around though, AND HE PUSHES AYU’S SHOULDERS ONTO THE MAT FOR A QUICK COVER!
OOOONNNNEEEEEE-
Deadprez: Ayu quickly kicks out, AND NOW USAGI SENSHI RUSHES IN AT JAKE SMITH TO TAKE HIM OUT-
Gavin Kirkland: :krabs: BUT JAKE SMITH DUCKS DOWN AND PULLS THE MIDDLE ROPE DOWN!!! USAGI SENSHI WAS SENT OUT OF THE RING AND INTO THE FLAMING HOT COALS!!!! NO, THIS ISN’T GOOD! USAGI NEEDS HELP, THIS CAN’T BE ALLOWED!
Eve: It’s not just allowed Gavin, this is how the match is supposed to go! Usagi Senshi is being burned by those hot coals, and unfortunately she’s gonna have to either find a way out of this herself or be helped by Ayu Megumi, who’s now stuck in a two-versus-one situation against both members of the Haircare Kings!
Deadprez: AYU MEGUMI QUICKLY RUSHES TO TRY AND HELP USAGI SENSHI, BUT JAKE SMITH IS QUICK TO GRAB HER BEFORE PLANTING HER WITH A SPINEBUSTER! Ayu Megumi rolling away from the ropes, meanwhile Chris Elite has gotten back up to his feet!
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe:
Eve: This match has turned around very quickly! Just a few minutes ago the Ice Aces had the upper hand, and now it’s the Haircare Kings outnumbering Ayu Megumi, all while Usagi Senshi is trying to get herself out of the hot coals! Ayu Megumi slowly gets back up, AND NOW SHE EATS A KNEE TO THE MIDSECTION BY CHRIS ELITE, BEFORE BEING ELBOWED IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD BY JAKE SMITH! CHRIS ELITE AND JAKE SMITH NOW BEGINNING TO TEAR AYU MEGUMI APART, AND THERE’S NOT MUCH THAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS!
Deadprez: AYU MEGUMI MANAGES TO HIT CHRIS WITH A RIGHT HAND, BUT CHRIS RESPONDS WITH A FOREARM THAT TAKES HER TO THE MAT! Ayu Megumi quickly pulls herself to the corner, BUT CHRIS ELITE CHARGES IN, HAWK EM!!! THE DOUBLE KNEES CONNECTS ON AYU MEGUMI, AND NOW CHRIS ELITE PULLS AYU UP BEFORE TOSSING HER OVER TO JAKE SMITH, WHO GRABS HER AND LOCKS HER IN A SLEEPER HOLD!!!
Gavin Kirkland: This just isn’t fair! I can’t watch this! Usagi Senshi is burning outside of the ring, and the Haircare Kings are taking full advantage of it!
Eve: That sleeper hold is locked in on Ayu, AND NOW CHRIS ELITE STARTS KICKING AT AYU’S MIDSECTION! THIS IS ONE OF THE TAG TEAM COMBINATIONS THE HAIRCARE KINGS HAVE IN THEIR ARSENAL, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI HAS TO MAKE A CHOICE HERE! IF SHE TAPS OUT THE ICE ACES LOSE THEIR SHOT AT THE TAG TITLES, BUT BOTH HER AND USAGI SENSHI WILL BE FREED! IF NOT, THEY’LL BOTH HAVE TO SOMEHOW FIGHT THEIR WAY THROUGH THE PAIN, AND I’M JUST NOT SURE HOW THAT’LL WORK OUT AT THIS POINT! Is Ayu Megumi gonna tap out!? She might have to!
Deadprez: AYU MEGUMI BACKPEDALS INTO THE ROPES, AND SENDS BOTH HERSELF AND JAKE SMITH RIGHT THROUGH THEM!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :krabs: BOTH AYU MEGUMI AND JAKE SMITH MANAGED TO LAND ON THE RING APRON!
Eve: Both Ayu Megumi and Jake Smith are pulling themselves up, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI HITS JAKE WITH A FOREARM, BUT JAKE RESPONDS BY KICKING AYU IN THE STOMACH! CHRIS ELITE NOW RUNNING IN, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S GOING TO HELP JAKE AS HE HITS AYU WITH A RIGHT HAND, ALMOST KNOCKING HER OFF OF THE RING APRON! AYU MEGUMI IS ONLY BARELY HANGING ON, BUT AT THIS POINT I THINK SHE’S ABOUT TO JOIN HER PARTNER-
Deadprez: USAGI SENSHI PULLS JAKE SMITH OFF OF THE APRON!! USAGI SENSHI PULLED JAKE’S LEGS OUT FROM UNDER HIM AND CAUSED HIM TO TUMBLE OFF OF THE APRON, AND NOW USAGI CLIMBS OVER JAKE BEFORE PULLING HERSELF ONTO THE RING APRON, FINALLY ESCAPING THE HOT COALS AS JAKE SMITH IS FORCED TO TAKE HER PLACE! CHRIS ELITE IS STUNNED, AND THAT GIVES AYU MEGUMI JUST ENOUGH TIME TO DUCK DOWN AND SEND HER SHOULDER INTO CHRIS ELITE’S MIDSECTION! AYU MEGUMI NOW HEADED UP TO THE TOP ROPE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: DIVING DDT!!! YES!!! AYU MEGUMI PLANTS CHRIS ELITE WITH A DIVING DDT, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI GOES FOR THE COVER!!! THAT’S IT, THE ICE ACES ARE CHAMPIONS!!!!!
OOOOONNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: STOP KICKING OUT!!! WHY CAN’T THE ICE ACES JUST WIN!?!?
Eve: Chris Elite is a Hall of Famer, he was never going to be put away that quickly, even after going through what he did at Shock Value! Ayu Megumi rushes over to Usagi Senshi, and Usagi is burnt pretty badly! She needs time to recover, and it looks like for the time being it’s down to Chris Elite and Ayu Megumi to try and put this match away as their partners are in no condition to compete right now! Ayu Megumi slowly makes it back to her feet, and she’s gotta find a way to keep Chris down if she wants to win those titles!
Deadprez: Ayu Megumi pulls herself onto the middle rope, and now she’s waiting for Chris Elite to get back to his feet! Ayu Megumi clearly has something in mind here, and now Chris is slowly getting back up, which is exactly what she wants! AYU MEGUMI DIVES OFF OF THE ROPE! PHANTOM STRIKE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NO!!!!!!!
Eve: IT DOESN’T CONNECT!!!! CHRIS ELITE MANAGES TO GRAB ONTO THE TOP ROPE TO KEEP HIMSELF ON HIS FEET AS AYU ROLLS OFF OF HIM! AYU MEGUMI TRIES TO PULL CHRIS DOWN INTO A SUNSET FLIP PIN- BUT CHRIS ELITE IS ABLE TO JUMP UP BEFORE DELIVERING A STANDING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP ON AYU! AYU MEGUMI IS HURTING, AND NOW CHRIS ELITE LIFTS HER UP INTO AN ELECTRIC CHAIR, LOOKING TO POTENTIALLY PUT THE FINISHING TOUCHES ON THIS MATCH, ALL WHILE USAGI AND JAKE ARE UNABLE TO GET THEMSELVES INVOLVED! CHRIS ELITE NOW WITH-
Deadprez: REVERSE FRANKENSTEINER BY AYU MEGUMI!!!! AYU MEGUMI DELIVERS THE REVERSE FRANKENSTEINER, AND NOW SHE’S DOWN ON THE MAT ALONGSIDE CHRIS ELITE! After that back and forth both Elitists need time to recover, meanwhile Jake Smith is slowly pulling himself back onto the ring apron! Much like Usagi, Jake is now suffering from tons of burns and might have to take time out of this match, but for his sake it’s a good thing that he wasn’t trapped out there any longer! Usagi is only just now beginning to stir! Ayu Megumi is using the ropes to get back to her feet, and this might be the Ice Aces’ match if these two can get back in this one!
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t care about Jake Smith, but Usagi Senshi is still recovering from her burn wounds! She’s not in good shape at all as of right now, and that means Ayu’s gonna have to somehow take down Chris Elite on her own!
Eve: Ayu Megumi checks on Usagi Senshi, but Ayu seems to understand that she’s gonna have to keep doing this on her own for now! Ayu now pulling Chris Elite up, BUT CHRIS ELITE LANDS A PUNCH TO THE MIDSECTION! AND ANOTHER ONE! CHRIS ELITE IS THROWING DESPERATE PUNCHES AND CONNECTING WITH THEM, BUT AYU IS ABLE TO LAND A FOREARM SHOT, KNOCKING CHRIS DOWN TO A KNEE! AYU MEGUMI NOW RUNNING THE ROPES-
Deadprez: BUT CHRIS ELITE DROPS AYU MEGUMI WITH A LARIAT! CHRIS ELITE TURNED AYU MEGUMI INSIDE OUT WITH THAT LARIAT OUT OF NOWHERE! Chris Elite rolls over to the ropes before using them to pull himself up to his feet, and now Chris quickly goes after Ayu Megumi before pulling her up! CHRIS ELITE LIFTS AYU MEGUMI UP ONTO HIS SHOULDERS, AND IT LOOKS LIKE CHRIS IS LOOKING FOR A POWERBOMB!!!
Gavin Kirkland: AYU MEGUMI QUICKLY STARTS PUNCHING CHRIS THOUGH, CAUSING CHRIS TO START TO STUMBLE! YES!!!! AYU IS ABLE TO SEND CHRIS OVER THE TOP ROPE WITH A HURRICANRANA!!!!!
Eve: CHRIS ELITE HANGS ONTO THE RING APRON THOUGH, STOPPING HIM FROM SUFFERING THE SAME FATE AS USAGI SENSHI AND HIS OWN PARTNER JAKE SMITH! Ayu Megumi quickly gets back to her feet as Chris Elite gets up on the ring apron, AND NOW AYU SWINGS AT CHRIS, BUT CHRIS DUCKS UNDER IT BEFORE SENDING AYU BACK WITH AN ELBOW! CHRIS NOW WITH A SPRINGBOARD-
Deadprez: AYU PUSHES CHRIS’ LEGS OUT FROM UNDER HIM! CHRIS ELITE MANAGES TO LAND ON THE RING APRON STILL, BUT THAT WAS EXTREMELY CLOSE! If Chris Elite didn’t have experience on his side the way he does, there’s no doubt that he would have fallen into the flaming hot coals!
Gavin Kirkland: IT DOESN’T MATTER!!! AYU MEGUMI LANDS A FRONT DROPKICK, KNOCKING CHRIS ELITE OFF OF THE RING APRON!!! HAHAHA LETS GO-
Gavin Kirkland: :comeagain:
Eve: CHRIS ELITE MANAGED TO GRAB ONTO THE BARRICADE! CHRIS WAS SENT SO FAR OFF OF THE APRON THAT HE WAS JUST BARELY ABLE TO GRAB ONTO THE BARRICADE AND KEEP HIMSELF JUST BARELY ABOVE THE HOT COALS!!!
Deadprez: CHRIS ELITE GETS ON TOP OF THE BARRICADE, AND AYU MEGUMI CAN’T BELIEVE HER EYES!!! I DON’T THINK ANYONE CAN!! HOW DID CHRIS ELITE DO THAT!?!?
Gavin Kirkland: HE’S CHEATING, HE HAS TO BE CHEATING!! SOMEONE PUSH HIM OFF OF THE BARRICADE!!! KNOCK HIM INTO THE HOT COALS!!!!
Eve: :mjlol: I don’t think there’ll be anyone doing that! Even if they weren’t fans of Chris Elite, I think everyone in the arena right now is just as stunned as we are-
OOOOONNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWOOOOOOOO!!!!!
THRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Deadprez: OH MY GOD, USAGI SENSHI KICKS OUT OF A PIN THAT NONE OF US SAW COMING!!!! USAGI SENSHI HAD MADE IT BACK TO HER FEET WHILE AYU MEGUMI WAS DEALING WITH CHRIS ELITE, BUT JAKE SMITH JUST ROLLED HER UP!!!! JAKE SMITH NEARLY STOLE THE VICTORY FOR THE HAIRCARE KINGS, AND AYU MEGUMI IS ONLY JUST REALIZING IT AFTER HER FOCUS WAS ON CHRIS! WHAT A SMART MOVE BY JAKE SMITH!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :krabs: Well thank God she kicked out! I don’t think I could handle the Ice Aces losing this match! They NEED to win! THEY HAVE TO WIN!!!
Eve: Calm down. Ayu Megumi goes after Jake Smith, but Jake is able to deliver a side elbow to the jaw, causing Ayu to stumble back! USAGI SENSHI CAPITALIZES AS SHE KNEES JAKE IN THE MIDSECTION! Jake drops to a knee thanks to how much pain he’s still in after the burns, and now Usagi quickly rushes over to Ayu to make sure she’s okay! The two of them seem to be having a little chat, and I think they’ve come up with an idea now as Ayu Megumi grabs Jake Smith-
Deadprez: AND AYU MEGUMI WAS LOOKING FOR THE GUILLOTINE CHOKE, BUT JAKE SMITH QUICKLY RUSHES INTO THE CORNER, SENDING AYU MEGUMI BACK FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLES!
(As Jake Smith continues to fight off the Ice Aces, Chris Elite takes a deep breath, standing on the barricade as he stares inside of the ring.)
Deadprez: CHRIS ELITE JUMPS BACK ONTO THE RING APRON AS JAKE SMITH HITS USAGI SENSHI WITH A BACK ELBOW, AND NOW CHRIS ELITE CAPITALIZES, TAKING USAGI DOWN WITH A SPRINGBOARD FOREARM!!! CHRIS ELITE GOES FOR THE COVER, MEANWHILE JAKE SMITH HOLDS AYU MEGUMI IN THE CORNER TO STOP HER FROM BREAKING UP THE PIN!!!
OOOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
TTT-
Gavin Kirkland: YES!!!! AYU MEGUMI MANAGED TO DUCK DOWN AND HIT JAKE WITH A DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN ONTO CHRIS ELITE, BREAKING UP THE PIN!!!
Eve: Jake Smith is still suffering from the burns so Ayu was able to take him down! Likewise, Usagi Senshi wasn’t going to have the easiest time kicking out as she still needs a bit more time after being burned for so long! Ayu Megumi rushes over to Usagi Senshi and slowly helps her up to her feet, meanwhile Jake Smith and Chris Elite are slowly getting up as well, and it looks like we’re getting back to square one!
Deadprez: USAGI SENSHI RUSHES AT CHRIS ELITE AND DELIVERS AN ELBOW SMASH, CATCHING HIM OFF GUARD AS AYU MEGUMI GOES AFTER JAKE SMITH! THE ICE ACES WASTING NO TIME TAKING DOWN THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, BUT JAKE SMITH IS ABLE TO TURN THINGS AROUND AS HE GETS ON TOP OF AYU, ELBOWING AWAY AT HER! USAGI SENSHI ON THE OTHER HAND HAS CHRIS ON THE ROPES AS SHE IS STOMPING AWAY AT HIM, AND NOW USAGI SENSHI RUNS THE ROPES!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HA! CHRIS TRIED TO CLOTHESLINE USAGI, BUT USAGI DUCKED UNDER IT BEFORE BOUNCING OFF OF THE OTHER ROPE, AND SHE DELIVERS A SLINGBLADE!!
Eve: Usagi clearly needs time to recover after that one after that springboard forearm and all those burns, meanwhile Jake Smith is trying to force Ayu Megumi out of the ring under the bottom rope! Ayu’s surely feeling the heat of the coals as her head is getting closer and closer to coming in contact with them! This could be really bad for Ayu Megumi, who had to take over for a bit after Usagi Senshi was sent into the coals!
Gavin Kirkland: NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!
Deadprez: JAKE SMITH FORCES AYU MEGUMI’S FACE INTO THE HOT COALS!!!! AYU MEGUMI’S FACE IS BEING BURNED BY THE HOT COALS, AND IT LOOKS LIKE JAKE IS PUTTING AYU THROUGH THE EXACT SAME PAIN HE FELT EARLIER IN THE MATCH! JAKE SMITH IS BURNING AYU MEGUMI’S FACE ON THE FLAMING HOT COALS, AND IF THIS ISN’T STOPPED SOON AYU MEGUMI MIGHT BE WALKING OUT OF THIS MATCH DISFIGURED!
Eve: :lupe: This is very hard to watch! The Haircare Kings have grown to become fan favorites over on Voltage, but if there’s one thing that hasn’t changed, it’s that they’re clearly willing to go to some very violent places for those Championships!
Gavin Kirkland: WHY IS THIS ALLOWED???? TAKE THEIR TITLES FROM THEM!!!! DISQUALIFY THE HAIRCARE KINGS!!!! THE ICE ACES SHOULD BE CHAMPIONS RIGHT NOW, THIS ISN’T FAIR-
Deadprez: USAGI SENSHI JUST ATTACKED JAKE SMITH!!!! USAGI SENSHI WASN’T ABLE TO GET UP TOO QUICKLY AFTER THE SLINGBLADE, BUT USAGI SAW WHAT AYU WAS GOING THROUGH AND HEARD HER SCREAMS, AND SHE JUST SENT JAKE SMITH INTO THE CORNER BEFORE RUNNING IN AND DELIVERING A DROPKICK RIGHT TO THE FACE!!!! USAGI SENSHI QUICKLY RUSHES OVER TO AYU, PULLING AYU BACK INTO THE RING THROUGH THE BOTTOM ROPE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: YES YES YES YES YES!!!! THANK YOU USAGI!!!!!
Eve: Usagi Senshi looks pissed!! She sees the condition Ayu Megumi is in, AND NOW USAGI SENSHI RUNS BACK AT JAKE, DELIVERING A NASTY BOOT TO THE FACE JUST AS JAKE WAS GETTING BACK UP!! USAGI NOW PUNCHING AWAY AT JAKE, THROWING AS MANY LEFTS AND RIGHTS AS SHE CAN AFTER WHAT JAKE DID TO AYU!! USAGI SENSHI SENDS JAKE INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER BEFORE CHARGING IN, AND USAGI SENSHI DELIVERS A RUNNING FOREARM SMASH!!!! USAGI NOW RUNNING BACK INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER BEFORE CHARGING BACK AT JAKE, AND SHE GOES FOR FATALITY-
Deadprez: BUT JAKE GETS OUT OF THE WAY, CAUSING USAGI’S KNEE TO HIT THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! Jake used his experience to his advantage, avoiding such a major move as Usagi was blinded by rage! Usagi Senshi stumbles out of the corner, AND NOW JAKE SMITH KICKS USAGI’S LEG OUT FROM UNDER HER, BEFORE PULLING HER INTO A FRONT FACELOCK AND DROPPING HER ONTO THE MAT WITH BROKEN WINGS!!! BROKEN WINGS CONNECTS BUT THAT MIGHT NOT BE ALL THAT’S BROKEN!! THE ICE ACES’ HOPES OF BECOMING CHAMPIONS MIGHT HAVE BEEN CRUSHED BEFORE OUR VERY EYES AS JAKE SMITH GOES FOR THE COVER!!!
OOOOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
TTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: USAGI SENSHI KICKED OUTT!!!!! THANK GOD, USAGI SENSHI KICKED OUT AND SAVED THE MATCH FOR THE NEXT UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, THE ICE ACES!!!!!!! That was really close! Usagi Senshi going back for more after the forearm allowed Jake time to recover and get out of the way!
Eve: Usagi has years of experience outside of EAW, but Jake Smith has been facing some of the best wrestlers in the world here since 2018, and you’ve got to think he’s learned a lot from them as time went on!
Deadprez: Jake Smith slowly begins to pull Usagi Senshi up, and it looks like Jake is telling Chris Elite to help him finish this! These two are about to put Usagi Senshi away, meanwhile Ayu Megumi is in no shape to stop this!
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe: I can’t look! I’m closing my eyes, I can’t watch this!
Eve: IT LOOKS LIKE THESE TWO ARE ABOUT TO SET UP FOR THE “HOMICIDE” TAG TEAM COMBINATION! JAKE SMITH PULLS USAGI IN, AND HE GOES FOR THE “MISS MURDER” SINGLE UNDERHOOK-
Deadprez: USAGI SENSHI JUST DUCKED DOWN AND ROLLED UP JAKE SMITH!!!
OOOOOONNNNEEEEEEE-
Deadprez: JAKE SMITH KICKS OUT AND NOW CHRIS ELITE GRABS USAGI SENSHI FROM BEHIND BEFORE GOING FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX!!
Eve: USAGI LANDS ON HER FEET THOUGH, AND NOW SHE JUMPS OVER CHRIS ELITE BEFORE HITTING JAKE SMITH WITH “FATALITY”!!!! THE BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE CONNECTS THIS TIME AS JAKE SMITH IS DROPPED ONTO THE MAT, BUT THERE’S NO POINT OF USAGI EVEN ATTEMPTING A PINFALL AS CHRIS ELITE IS STILL VERY WELL IN THIS MATCH!
Deadprez: Both Usagi Senshi and Chris Elite get back to their feet, AND USAGI SENSHI RUNS AT CHRIS ELITE, BUT CHRIS IS ABLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HER EXHAUSTION AS HE TAKES USAGI TO THE MAT WITH A DROP TOE HOLD! Chris Elite now getting back up, AND CHRIS LOOKS FOR A STANDING MOONSAULT, BUT USAGI SENSHI IS ABLE TO ROLL OUT OF THE WAY, FORCING CHRIS TO HIT NOBODY AS HE LANDS ON THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: I guess it’s safe to open my eyes again, but I’m still worried right now, this is way too close of a match, and both Usagi Senshi and Chris Elite are getting back up!
Eve: USAGI SENSHI GETS THE UPPER HAND AS SHE HITS CHRIS ELITE WITH AN ELBOW, AND NOW A SECOND ONE! USAGI NOW GRABBING CHRIS AS SHE PULLS HIM INTO A FRONT FACELOCK-
Deadprez: BUT CHRIS ELITE POPS USAGI UP BEFORE DROPPING HER WITH A SIT OUT POWERBOMB, FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER PINFALL!!!!
OOOOOOOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Deadprez: BUT THERE’S ANOTHER KICKOUT BY USAGI SENSHI!!!! USAGI SENSHI STAYS IN THE MATCH!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :blessed:
Eve: AND NOW CHRIS ELITE DOESN’T WASTE ANY TIME BEGINNING TO THROW ELBOWS AT THE BACK OF USAGI’S HEAD, TRYING TO TAKE HER OUT OF THIS ONE COMPLETELY AS USAGI STRUGGLES TO HER HEAD WITH HER ARMS TO BLOCK TO ELBOWS!
Gavin Kirkland: :krabs:
Deadprez: Chris Elite pulls Usagi Senshi back up to her feet, BEFORE THROWING HER SHOULDER FIRST INTO THE RING POST!!! Usagi Senshi might be outmatched right now! Chris Elite isn’t giving her any time to breathe, and with that being said I’m not sure how Usagi will be able to get back in this one! We might be seeing the end of the match at this rate, Chris Elite is in firm control here!
Gavin Kirkland: I hate this so much! Chris Elite pulled Usagi Senshi onto the top rope, and I don’t know what he has in mind but at times like this it’s never good! Chris now going-
(Chris Elite tries to climb up the turnbuckles, but is stopped as he can’t move his leg.)
Eve: AYU MEGUMI IS HOLDING ONTO CHRIS ELITE!! CHRIS WAS ABOUT TO TRY AND SET UP A SUPERPLEX OR ANOTHER MOVE OFF OF THE TOP ROPE, AND AYU MEGUMI MANAGED TO TEMPORARILY STOP HIM BY GRABBING ONTO HIS LEG!
Deadprez: I DON’T THINK THAT WAS ENOUGH THOUGH, BECAUSE CHRIS IS ABLE TO FREE HIMSELF BEFORE KICKING AND STOMPING AT AYU MEGUMI, WHO STILL HASN’T FULLY RECOVERED AFTER THE HOT COALS!!! Chris Elite now turning his attention back to Usagi Senshi-
Gavin Kirkland: AND USAGI KICKS CHRIS ELITE AWAY FROM HER! AYU MEGUMI DISTRACTING CHRIS ELITE GAVE USAGI SENSHI ENOUGH TIME TO RECOVER JUST ENOUGH TO KICK CHRIS AWAY FROM HER!!! USAGI SENSHI SETS HERSELF UP ON THE TOP ROPE NOW, AND SHE DIVES ONTO CHRIS ELITE WITH A CROSSBODY!!!!!
Eve: WOW!! That was an amazing way for the Ice Aces to get back into this match after it looked like Chris Elite was about to put this one away for the Haircare Kings! It’s extremely impressive how the Ice Aces have performed tonight against competitors far more experienced than them!
Deadprez: It has been impressive, but they’re not done yet! Usagi Senshi doesn’t go for the pin, because Ayu Megumi is slowly getting back up and it looks like these two have an idea in mind! Chris Elite is slowly getting up, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI GRABS CHRIS ELITE FROM BEHIND AS USAGI SENSHI RUNS THE ROPES!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: STARSTORMTALITY!!!! IT CONNECTS, OH MY GOD IT ACTUALLY CONNECTS!!!!! THE BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE AND DRAGON SUPLEX COMBINATION CONNECTS, AND AYU MEGUMI HOLDS CHRIS FOR THE BRIDGING PIN WHILE USAGI SENSHI HOOKS THE LEGS, PUSHING CHRIS ELITE’S SHOULDERS DOWN!!!!!! THE ICE ACES ARE ABOUT TO BECOME CHAMPIONS!!!!!!
OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTHHHRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
………………
……………………………
…………
…………………
Eve: JAKE SMITH BREAKS UP THE PIN!!!!! JAKE SMITH JUST BARELY MANAGED TO JUMP OVER TO THE ICE ACES AND CHRIS ELITE, KNOCKING THEM ALL OVER AND BREAKING UP THE PIN JUST BEFORE THREE! ANY CLOSER THAN THAT AND THIS MATCH WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER, THE ICE ACES WOULD HAVE BEEN THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS RIGHT NOW! The Ice Aces were so close to becoming Champions, and Jake Smith managed to take that away from them!
Deadprez: That was one of the two biggest tag team moves Ayu and Usagi could have delivered, there was no kicking out of that from Chris Elite. Jake Smith saved the Haircare Kings Championship reign right there, and right now everyone in the match is down after what they’ve been through tonight! This has been a fantastic Unified Tag Team Championship match and an amazing way to open up Dia Del Diablo! At this point I have no idea who’s going to win! The Haircare Kings had experience on their side, but the Ice Aces have found ways to work around that!
Gavin Kirkland: Of course they did!! The Ice Aces are the next Unified Tag Team Champions, we don’t want the Haircare Kings as Champions anymore!
Eve: Well I don’t know how this match is going to end at this point, but I can say this. Jake Smith is outnumbered right now seeing as Chris Elite was just taken out! Jake is slowly starting to get back up, still exhausted after what he’s been through in this match, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI AND USAGI SENSHI GO AFTER JAKE, PUMMELING HIM AS HE IS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN TO THE CORNER OF THE RING, WHERE THE ICE ACES BEGIN STOMPING HIM OUT!
Deadprez: AYU MEGUMI CONTINUES TO STOMP AT JAKE SMITH WHILE USAGI SENSHI GRABS CHRIS ELITE, AND NOW I THINK USAGI IS ABOUT TO GIVE THE HAIRCARE KINGS A TASTE OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE AFTER WHAT JAKE DID TO AYU EARLIER!!! USAGI SENSHI PUSHES CHRIS ELITE OUT THROUGH THE BOTTOM ROPE, AND NOW SHE PRESSES HER FOOT AGAINST CHRIS ELITE’S NECK, FORCING CHRIS’ FACE AGAINST THE HOT COALS!!!! THE ICE ACES NOW SHOWING A FAR MORE BRUTAL SIDE OF THEMSELVES, ALL BECAUSE OF WHAT THE HAIRCARE KINGS DID DURING THIS VERY MATCH!
Gavin Kirkland: GOOD!!! THIS IS WHAT I LIKE TO SEE!!!!! THE ICE ACES ARE GONNA WIN THIS MATCH EVEN IF IT MEANS THEY HAVE TO KILL THE HAIRCARE KINGS!!!!!! AYU MEGUMI KEEPS STOMPING AT JAKE SMITH AND KEEPING HIM TRAPPED IN THE CORNER, AND THIS ALLOWS USAGI SENSHI TO KEEP CHRIS ELITE’S FACE ON THE FLAMING COALS!!! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE HAIRCARE KINGS DESERVE!!! THE ICE ACES ARE FINALLY GONNA TAKE THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!!
Eve: As annoying as Gavin Kirkland is, I don’t know if I can disagree! In a surprising turn of events it’s now the Ice Aces in firm control of this match-
Deadprez: SPOKE TOO SOON!! JAKE GRABS AYU’S LEG BEFORE PUNCHING HER IN THE MIDSECTION! AYU MEGUMI STUMBLES BACK AS JAKE GETS UP, AND NOW JAKE THROWS AYU MEGUMI INTO HER OWN PARTNER, KNOCKING USAGI SENSHI AWAY FROM CHRIS ELITE!!! JAKE SMITH PULLS CHRIS BACK INTO THE RING WHILE HE STILL HAS THE TIME, KNOWING THAT HE’S ABOUT TO HAVE TO TRY AND FEND OFF THE ICE ACES ON HIS OWN!
Gavin Kirkland: There’s no way Jake can win this match on his own! LET’S GO ICE ACES, THIS IS YOUR TIME TO WIN THE TAG TITLES!!!!
Eve: JAKE SMITH CHARGES RIGHT AT THE ICE ACES AS HE HITS USAGI SENSHI WITH A RIGHT HAND, JUST FOR AYU MEGUMI TO GO AFTER JAKE- WAIT NO! JAKE SMITH DUCKED UNDER THE STRIKE ATTEMPT FROM AYU MEGUMI BEFORE KICKING HER IN THE MIDSECTION, BUT NOW USAGI SENSHI HITS JAKE WITH AN ELBOW! JAKE SMITH KNEW WHAT HE WAS GETTING HIMSELF INTO, BUT HE’S DOING WHATEVER HE CAN TO AT LEAST FEND THE ICE ACES OFF WHILE HIS PARTNER IS RECOVERING! If there’s one thing that’s been true over these past months, it’s that the Haircare Kings have grown into being a phenomenal team in their own right!
Deadprez: JAKE SMITH GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH USAGI SENSHI, BUT USAGI LANDS A NASYY HEADBUTT, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI HITS JAKE WITH AN ELBOW! AS TALENTED AS JAKE IS, A TWO ON ONE FIGHT IS JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN THIS LATE INTO THE MATCH! USAGI SENSHI AND AYU MEGUMI BOTH KICK JAKE IN THE STOMACH, DROPPING JAKE DOWN TO HIS KNEES! The Ice Aces seem to have an idea on their mind right now, and I don’t know what it is, but this could end the match if Jake doesn’t do something quick!
Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD, I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY’RE DOING! AYU AND USAGI RUN THE ROPES IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS, AND THEY’RE ABOUT TO FINISH THIS MATCH!! ETHEREALITY!!!!!!
Eve: CHRIS ELITE JUST PUSHED JAKE SMITH OUT OF THE WAY, CAUSING THE ICE ACES TO JUMP INTO EACH OTHER!!!! CHRIS ELITE HAD JUST ENOUGH LEFT IN THE TANK TO PUSH HIS PARTNER OUT OF HARMS WAY, SAVING THE HAIRCARE KINGS’ CHAMPIONSHIP REIGN AS THE ICE ACES TAKE THEMSELVES OUT! I don’t even know how Chris Elite is moving! I don’t know how he had enough left in him to actually save Jake Smith right there, but I’m sure Jake isn’t complaining one bit!
Deadprez: Jake Smith is slowly trying to help Chris Elite back up to his feet, meanwhile the Ice Aces are slowly getting up themselves! Once again we’re right back here, with both teams coming face to face, only at this point, I genuinely believe this match can end at any moment! There’s only so much a person can take, and I don’t think anybody in this match can take much more!
Gavin Kirkland: BOTH TEAMS GO RUNNING AT EACH OTHER, ONCE AGAIN BEGINNING TO TRADE PUNCHES!!! I have to root for the two women in this match, but I have to admit that this has been very close! I’ve been so worried as I thought the Haircare Kings actually had it won at points, but right now it looks like these two teams are at an even playing field!
Eve: THE HAIRCARE KINGS ARE GETTING THE UPPER HAND!!! AYU MEGUMI THREW A PUNCH THAT CHRIS WAS ABLE TO DUCK, AND NOW CHRIS FIRES BACK WITH A RIGHT HAND, STAGGERING AYU! CHRIS ELITE WITH ANOTHER RIGHT HAND, AND NOW ONE MORE!!! JAKE SMITH ON THE OTHER HAND HAS USAGI SENSHI AGAINST THE ROPES, AND NOW HE LOOKS FOR A CLOTHESLINE OUT OF THE RING!
Deadprez: NO! USAGI SENSHI MANAGED TO DUCK UNDER IT AND AVOID BEING SENT INTO THE HOT COALS, AND NOW USAGI LOOKS TO GIVE JAKE A TASTE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE AS SHE GOES FOR THE CLOTHESLINE HERSELF-
Gavin Kirkland: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! JAKE SMITH LIFTS USAGI SENSHI OVER HIS HEAD, SENDING HER OUT OF THE RING!!!!!!
Eve: BUT ONTO THE RING APRON!!!! USAGI SENSHI LANDS ON THE RING APRON, JUST BARELY AVOIDING THE FLAMING COALS DOWN AT RINGSIDE! THAT WAS A REAL CLOSE CALL, BUT NOW JAKE SMITH LOOKS TO TRY AND CAPITALIZE AS HE HITS USAGI WITH A FOREARM!
Deadprez: Chris Elite has Ayu Megumi in the corner, AND NOW CHRIS SWINGS AT HER FOR A CLOTHESLINE-
Deadprez: BUT AYU MEGUMI DUCKED UNDER IT, GRABBING CHRIS BEFORE DELIVERING A REVERSE STO INTO THE MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE! Chris Elite stumbles out of the corner, AND NOW AYU GRABS CHRIS ELITE FROM BEHIND BEFORE DELIVERING A RIPCORD KNEE STRIKE!!! CHRIS ELITE DROPS DOWN TO A KNEE, AND NOW AYU MEGUMI HAS CHRIS ELITE IN POSITION TO FINISH THIS MATCH!
Gavin Kirkland: I THINK AYU MEGUMI MIGHT BE SETTING UP FOR THE STARSTORM!!!! JAKE IN THE MEANWHILE IS STILL TRYING TO KNOCK USAGI SENSHI OFF OF THE RING APRON, BUT USAGI IS ABLE TO GRAB JAKE BY THE HEAD BEFORE PULLING HIM DOWN, CAUSING HIS THROAT TO CONNECT WITH THE TOP ROPE!!! Jake Smith now stumbling back, AND NOW USAGI SENSHI GOES FOR A SPRINGBOARD-
Eve: SUPERKICK!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Deadprez: JAKE SMITH JUST HIT USAGI WITH A SUPERKICK BEFORE USAGI COULD JUMP ONTO THE TOP ROPE FOR THE SPRINGBOARD, AND IN TURN USAGI WAS JUST KNOCKED OFF THE RING APRON, FALLING BACK INTO THE FLAMING COALS!!!!
(Just as Ayu Megumi is about to deliver the “Starstorm” Dragon Suplex, she notices Usagi getting knocked off of the ring apron and into the flaming coals.)
Eve: AYU MEGUMI SAW USAGI SENSHI GETTING KNOCKED INTO THE COALS, BUT NOW’S NO TIME TO GET DISTRACTED!!! SHE NEEDS TO PUT CHRIS AWAY BEFORE-
Deadprez: CHRIS ELITE LANDS A BACK ELBOW TO THE NOSE, CAUSING AYU TO STUMBLE BACK AS CHRIS ELITE DELIVERS A FLATLINER!!! CHRIS ELITE DROPS AYU WITH THE FLATLINER, AND NOW THERE’S “RANSOM”!!!!!! THE KOJI CLUTCH IS LOCKED IN!!!! AYU MEGUMI WAS DISTRACTED BECAUSE USAGI SENSHI WAS KNOCKED OFF THE APRON INTO THE COALS, AND THAT HESITATION GAVE CHRIS JUST ENOUGH TIME TO GET BACK INTO THIS AND LOCK IN THE RANSOM!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: AYU MEGUMI IS REACHING OUT, BUT THERE’S NO POINT!!! NO ROPES CAN HELP HER IN THIS MATCH, AND UNFORTUNATELY, THERE’S JUST NO WAY SHE’LL BE ABLE TO SAVE USAGI LIKE THIS! AYU MEGUMI IS TRYING DESPERATELY TO REACH THE END OF THE RING, TRYING TO GET OVER TO USAGI DESPITE BEING TRAPPED IN THE SUBMISSION-
Deadprez: :lupe: But even if she could, Jake Smith is right there to make sure that doesn’t happen!
Eve: AYU IS FADING FAST, STILL TRYING TO REACH OUT TO USAGI, BUT I DON’T THINK SHE HAS ENOUGH STRENGTH LEFT IN HER, SHE CAN’T CONTINUE!!!!
Deadprez: AYU MEGUMI TAPS OUT!!!! THE HAIRCARE KINGS RETAIN!!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gina Romano: Here are your winners…. AAAANNDDDDD STTILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL YOUR UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS…. CHRIS ELITE AND JAKE SMITH, THE HAAAIIRRRRRCAARRREEE KIIIIIIIIIIINGSS!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: WHAT A MATCH!!! WHAT AN OPENER TO DIA DEL DIABLO!!! That was an amazing match and the Ice Aces had a fantastic performance, but in the end the Haircare Kings make it through another Unified Tag Team Championship defense!
Gavin Kirkland: SAVE USAGI!!! HURRY UP AND SAVE HER!!!!
Eve: There’s actually officials running down the ramp as we speak to help Usagi out of the flaming coals, as well as putting that ramp back so everyone can make it out of the ring! That was a fantastic way to kick off the show, and it has to be said once again that the Ice Aces had an amazing performance! In the end, this match was just too much for them, and Usagi getting hurt stopped Ayu from putting Chris away!
Deadprez: The Ice Aces came close, but in the end the Haircare Kings win, leaving Dia Del Diablo with the Unified Tag Team Championships. Congratulations to the Haircare Kings!
(‘Shake It’ plays as Jake Smith slowly helps Chris Elite back to his feet, and the referee hands the Haircare Kings their Unified Tag Team Champions. Jake and Chris are both suffering from burns just like everyone else in the match, but the referee is able to hold up Chris and Jake’s hands. Ayu can be seen leaning against the ropes, watching in pain with a concerned look on her face as Usagi Senshi is being tended to by the officials. As Chris Elite and Jake Smith celebrate their victory, Dia Del Diablo fades away from ringside.)
(Dia Del Diablo from there begins to transition over to the next match graphic as the crowd roars in approval for what’s about to come.)
(https://i.ibb.co/6Nnpp9F/ABELVSROBERTO.png)
(The camera then goes over to show Gina Romano standing inside of the ring with a smile on her face as she grips a microphone in her hand and begins to speak.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, the following is a RING OF FIRE MATCH! It is a SINGLES MATCH and a contest that is scheduled for…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(‘9 5 . s o u t h’ by J. Cole begins to blast through the speakers of the arena as the crowd erupts into loud boos while the camera transitions over to show Abel Atami making his way out from the backstage area. He has a stern and serious expression on his face as he has one hand raised in the air looking straight towards the ring. It’s clear that this is a very important match for him especially with the platform that it’s placed on. He nods his head before beginning to make his way down the ramp and towards the ring from there.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first… by way of provenance known as Upola, Samoa… weighing in at 227 pounds… THE GOLDEN TICKET… ABEL ATAMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Here comes Abel Atami who isn’t the most liked person on the Showdown brand. He’s surely developed a reputation for himself but with that he’s also shown out and proven that regardless of what people think of him, that he is one of the best and is someone to look out for as time goes on. Which, I have to admit, is a very true statement. He’s proven himself and shown just how quickly he’s rising the ranks, and right now you might as well consider this the ultimate task that stands in front of him…
Eve: Him and his opponent tonight Roberto De La Rosa have had a long history with one another. Abel all this week blamed him for being the reason that he hasn’t reached his true potential, and it’s safe to say if anything that he absolutely hates his guts. He’s looking to settle the score right now and this might just be the last chance that he gets to do this. We’ll just have to see what happens especially when it comes to something like a Ring of Fire match.
Gavin Kirkland: Seriously, how much does he pay Gina to make her say “by way of provenance known as Upola, Samoa.” I know there’s more pressing matters, but why does he make it so important? I mean, Andre Walker doesn’t emphasize the fact that he lives on a weird island in Samoa with no population. So I just don’t get it.
(Abel makes his way up the steel steps before stepping onto the apron. He looks out at the crowd who continues to show their negativity towards ‘The Golden Ticket.’ He then enters into the ring before making his way towards the center and raising his hand in the air. He hypes himself up before making his way towards his corner as ‘9 5 . s o u t h’ begins to come to a close from there and Abel gets ready for his match.)
(‘Por Mi Mexico (ft. Santa Fe Klan)’ by Lefty SM begins to blast through the speakers from there as the crowd begins to roar into absolutely DEAFENING cheers in support. The camera goes over from the ring to the stage to show Roberto De La Rosa make his way out to the stage. He has a cigar in his mouth as he unbuttons his suit that he has on to reveal his ring gear. What really causes the crowd to go berserk is the flag of Mexico being revealed behind him while pyro shoots out. From there he begins to make his way down the ramp and towards the ring.)
Gina Romano: And his opponent… from Hidalgo Mexico-
(The crowd pops even louder.)
Gina Romano: … weighing in at 245 pounds… EL PADRASTRO… ROBERTO DE LA ROSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Well look at the warm welcome being shown for Roberto De La Rosa here tonight. This is Texas, and Texas does have a large Mexican population, so it’s only fitting that they give a warm welcome to one of their own :blessed:. But I’m sure they have reasons other than that, considering he’s also one of those rising stars that I mentioned here on the Showdown brand. He has come into his own as of late and has shown why he is not someone to be messed with!
Eve: He’s also had his problems with Abel and has said that finally the chain that holds them together will be broken apart tonight and with that he hopes that he will be able to write his final chapter in blood. Cryptic, but if that’s what it takes then I’m sure that Roberto is willing to go to that length to make sure there is nothing left of Abel Atami once he’s done with him.
Gavin Kirkland: I’m just saying if there’s a murder I, Gavin Kirkland, am not responsible for anything that happens regarding the police or the FBI. I’ve already got arrest warrants in two states. I can’t afford another one.
(Roberto circles around the ring before jumping up onto the apron and entering into the ring. From there he spreads his arms out while the crowd continues to show their support towards him. From there he nods his head before turning around and beginning to make his way towards his corner opposite of Abel. ‘Por Mi Mexico (ft. Santa Fe Klan)’ then begins to come to a close from there as the camera transitions to another scene being shown.)
(A group of pyrotechnicians are seen at ringside standing next to the referee, waiting for the two participants in this match to finish their entrances before opening the breaker box that attaches itself to the side of the ring. From there, they flip a switch that lights the edges of the ring up in a beautiful inferno while the crowd looks on in awe! Abel and Roberto look around, taking a gauge of their surroundings and realizing what they’ve gotten themselves into tonight at Dia Del Diablo, before the referee at ringside calls for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Deadprez: Here we go as this Ring of Fire match is underway! This match can only be won by pinfall or submission and it should be out of the way considering the wall of fire surrounding the ring that this match is no disqualification as well. You can tell that Abel and Roberto have been waiting a long time to get their hands on one another. Both of them have met countless times in their respective EAW careers and finally, they stand across the ring from one another for one last time-
Eve: ABEL RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE RUNNING FORWARD AND LEAPING INTO THE AIR CONNECTING WITH A DROPKICK TO THE CHEST OF ROBERTO! Roberto stumbles back and falls into his corner, as Abel immediately pops himself back up and begins to unload with rapid fire punches towards his face while he’s cornered! Abel Atami said himself that he would do anything to make sure that Roberto speaks his last words in EAW and right now he seems to be on the fast track towards that! Abel steps back and takes a running start, BEFORE SPRINTING FORWARD AND LOOKING TO CONNECT WITH A BOOT TO THE FACE OF ROBERTO!
Gavin Kirkland: But Roberto grabs the sole of the boot just in time before shoving it away with authority! Remember, Roberto is a big, burly bald man. Do you know what big, burly bald men do? They HURT. This man ran with the cartels. You know that he’s serious. He brings Abel back up to his feet, before turning him around and setting him up, only for Abel to attempt to swing backward towards his head! BUT ROBERTO DIPS HIS HEAD UNDER THAT BEFORE TRANSITIONING INTO A BRUTAL SAITO SUPLEX THAT DROPS HIM TO THE MAT!
Deadprez: WITH THAT IMPACT THE RING OF FIRE BURSTS INTO AN UNCONTROLLABLE FLAME! It begins to calm itself down, but that’s just one of the many dangers that either of these men are going to have to face in this match. There is nothing stopping them from going outside of the ring, and there is nothing stopping them from meeting the flame with their own skin as well, and we know that’s no good for either of them especially if they want to win tonight.
(Roberto gets back up to his feet and shakes himself off before looking around at the Texas crowd here tonight cheering their lungs out for him, it’s clear everyone in attendance here tonight is on his side.)
Eve: Abel stumbles back and falls against the ropes, and I wouldn’t look at how close he is to that flame right now. Roberto is facing him looking to go for something here… RUNNING FORWARD AND REELING HIS ARM BACK GOING FOR A CLOTHESLINE TO SEND ABEL OVER THE TOP ROPE! But before Abel can meet any immediate danger he manages to use the ropes to bring himself up and send a boot to the face of Roberto to force him into retreat! Roberto isn’t standing down though, THIS TIME LOOKING TO CONNECT WITH A RUNNING KNEE TO ABEL’S FACE TO DROP HIM TO THE CANVAS!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT ABEL DUCKS UNDER THAT AND GRABS THE LEG OF ROBERTO BEFORE PULLING IT OUT FROM BENEATH HIM! You can see Abel’s game plan is trying to keep Roberto grounded because right now Roberto has about… I don’t know I failed at math I just know that he’s a lot bigger than him. Abel running to the ropes and back, BEFORE LEAPING INTO THE AIR NOW AND CONNECTING WITH A KNEE DROP TOWARDS HIS SPINE WHICH SENDS SHOCKWAVES THROUGHOUT ROBERTO’S BODY UPON IMPACT! Now that hurts!
Deadprez: Well as Gavin said Abel is looking to keep him down and right now he’s doing an incredibly sound job at doing so. But right now he’s looking to gamble that away as he turns around and makes his way towards the corner, scaling the turnbuckles and perching himself up onto the top rope. Roberto is trying to get himself back up to his feet but right now I don’t think that he notices Abel on the top and ready to fly off onto him! ABEL LEAPS OFF OF THE TOP ROPE AND GOES FOR A METEORA TO DROP ROBERTO DOWN TO THE MAT!
Eve: BUT ROBERTO MANAGES TO GRAB A HOLD OF HIM BEFORE HE CAN DO THAT AND SHOVE HIM OFF OF THE TOP ROPE AND TO THE OUTSIDE! ABEL FALLS RIGHT INTO THE FLAMES AND TAKES A HARD TUMBLE TO THE OUTSIDE! THE FIRE HAS STRIKED ITS FIRST BLOW IN THIS MATCH TONIGHT!
(Abel rolls around in pure agony while the referee hesitantly makes his way over. He rolls onto his stomach where burn marks are seen faintly on his back. Roberto, simply stands in the ring with a smirk on his face while he watches Abel writhe in pain. It brings him an immense amount of satisfaction to watch, especially with how much of a thorn in his side that Abel has been for him.)
Gavin Kirkland: Yikes, imagine waking up in the morning after that. Abel is definitely feeling that right now while the only thing that Roberto has done so far is laugh at his pain, his suffering. But it looks like now he has a plan, turning around and heading towards the corner before looking to take Abel’s position on the top rope. There’s no one stopping him right now as Abel slowly begins to get back up to his feet, unknowing of what beholds him right now…
Deadprez: ROBERTO TURNS HIMSELF AROUND AND LEAPS OFF OF THE TOP ROPE TO THE OUTSIDE! FLOORING ABEL WITH A BEAUTIFUL MOONSAULT! Both of these men have given it their all in this match so far, but just remember, only one of them can win! They’re going to do everything they can to make sure that the person who does ends up being them.
Eve: Abel is down on the ground as he slowly begins to crawl away from Roberto and make his way around the ring area. Roberto isn’t just going to let that happen though, as he’s in pursuit, grabbing a hold of the leg of Abel- but it’s Abel that turns onto his back and sends a boot to the face of Roberto forcing him backward! You can see that look of pain on the face of Abel as he tries to nurse that charred back of his, he’s got the upperhand so far but that agonizing pain might just get the better of him. Roberto turns around, running towards Abel… ONLY TO BE MET WITH A ROLLING ELBOW TO THE BRIDGE OF HIS NOSE WHICH DROPS HIM DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: Abel is beginning to dig under the ring now, let’s just hope he doesn’t find anything that I left under there :lupe:… but it does look like he found something that has interested him as he begins to pull it out into the light…
(Abel swings his signature barbed wire kendo stick in his hands with a grin on his face as he looks to be mesmerized by it. His trance is broken though as he looks to his left and sees the fire surrounding the ring still burning bright. A light bulb flashes inside of his head as he takes the kendo stick and presses it against the fire, lighting the dangerous weapon and making it even more dangerous in the process before gripping it with two hands and looking towards Roberto who is struggling to get back up to his feet…)
(**CRACK!**)
Deadprez: ABEL JUST SMASHED THE FLAMING BARBED WIRE KENDO STICK AGAINST THE SKULL OF ROBERTO!
(Abel uses his foot to rip the barbed wire off of the face of Roberto as he drops down to the ground and blocks his face in pain, rolling around as the camera focuses in to show a dark red mark right down the middle of his face with blood dripping down it indicating where the kendo stick connected. Charred bits of the weapon drop down to the ground as Abel drops it down and grabs Roberto by the head and brings him back up.)
Eve: LOOK AT ABEL NOW! HE JUST PRESSED ROBERTO’S HEAD AGAINST THE RING GIVING HIM A TASTE OF THE FIRE BEFORE PULLING IT AWAY! ROBERTO IS SCREAMING IN PAIN GRABBING HIS FACE WHILE ABEL ROLLS HIM BACK INTO THE RING THROUGH THE FIRE NOW! HE’S BURNING ROBERTO TO A CRISP RIGHT HERE!
Gavin Kirkland: Those pyrotechnicians look scared out of their mind as Abel digs under the ring… BEFORE PULLING OUT A LADDER FROM UNDER THE RING! Abel is playing it smart, making sure he doesn’t get a taste of the fire again as he sets it up and begins to make his way up to an elevated position. Abel then jumps into the ring before hooking the leg and forcing Roberto’s shoulders down to the mat for a pin!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
Deadprez: I DON’T KNOW IF IT WAS OUT OF INSTINCT OR NOT BUT THROUGH THE LITERAL FIRE AND FLAMES IT’S ROBERTO THAT MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP! ABEL IS DISTRAUGHT AS THIS MATCH CONTINUES ONWARD!
Eve: Just take a look at the burns that are all over the body of Roberto, that’s only after a few short minutes, imagine what the rest of this match could look like for the two of them. Roberto getting hit with the flaming barbed wire kendo stick right between the eyes is sure to leave his vision temporarily blurred as he tries to get himself back up. It’s clear he’s in pure agony and while that’s not good for him, it’s an opportunity for Abel to capitalize and continue on his assault! Abel setting him up now… ABEL RUNNING TO THE ROPES AND LAUNCHING OFF OF THEM GOING FOR A SPRINGBOARD KICK! HE CALLS THAT ‘THE SECOND VOLUME KICK’ WHICH TAKES ROBERTO DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: WAIT! ROBERTO MANAGES TO RECOVER JUST ENOUGH TO CATCH ABEL INTO HIS HANDS! Abel squirming around trying to get out of the dangerous situation that he’s in, BUT ROBERTO JUST LIFTED HIM UP ABOVE HIS HEAD AND DROPPED HIM DOWN WITH A BRUTAL BACKBREAKER OVER HIS KNEE! Roberto is showing some impressive fight right now as Abel stumbles up to his feet, unbeknownst to ‘The Golden Ticket’ what awaits behind him as he turns around…
Deadprez: ONLY TO CUT ABEL IN HALF WITH ‘TALON DE ÁGUILA!’ THE SPEAR CONNECTS AS ROBERTO DROPS DOWN AND HOOKS THE LEG GOING FOR A PIN ATTEMPT! COULD THIS BE IT RIGHT HERE?!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHH-
Eve: BUT ABEL MANAGES TO KICK OUT JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME! BOTH OF THESE MEN HAVE A LOT MORE LEFT IN THE TANK THAN EITHER OF THEM EXPECTED FROM ONE ANOTHER! THIS IS GOING TO BE A WAR!
Gavin Kirkland: Thanks for stating the obvious Eve, gosh. You can see the combined expression of tiring agony plastered all over the face of Roberto right now as he continues to push on in this match despite everything that he’s had to withstand. He grabs Abel by the head and brings him up to his feet, before beginning to set him up as he puts him onto his shoulders in a precarious powerbomb position…
Deadprez: AS ROBERTO MAKES HIS WAY TOWARDS THE EDGE OF THE RING! HE’S GOING TO POWERBOMB ABEL OVER THE TOP ROPE AND ONTO THE APRON, BACK INTO THE FIRE AGAIN!
Eve: NO! Before that can happen it’s Abel that begins to rain down repeated punches towards the skull of Roberto hoping to preserve himself right now! Roberto manages to keep Abel up on his shoulders but right now he’s having a hard time fully executing what he has in, as Abel manages to free himself just enough to jump over the head of Roberto and stumble forward behind him! Roberto turns around- BUT BEFORE HE CAN ABEL COMES FROM BEHIND AND CONNECTS WITH A CHOP BLOCK TO THE BACK OF HIS KNEE WHICH TAKES HIM OFF GUARD FOR THE MOMENT!
Gavin Kirkland: Abel now grabs Roberto by the head and tugs him towards the center of the ring, BEFORE DROPPING HIM DOWN INTO A REVERSE DDT! Abel now running to the ropes and back, BEFORE LEAPING INTO THE AIR AND GOING FOR A HIGH IMPACT ELBOW DROP PRIMED RIGHT FOR THE CHEST OF ROBERTO DE LA ROSA-
Deadprez: But it’s Roberto that manages to move out of the way before anything else can happen! Abel takes a hard fall to the ground as he clutches his elbow trying to make his way back up to his feet, RUNNING TOWARDS ROBERTO IN A DESPERATION ATTEMPT- BUT ROBERTO JUST POPPED ABEL HIGH IN THE AIR AND STEPPED BACK LETTING HIM DROP DOWN TO THE GROUND! Roberto isn’t done though, grabbing a hold of the head of Abel and bringing him back up to his feet, oh God…
Eve: ROBERTO JUST CHUCKED ABEL OVER THE TOP ROPE LIKE A RAG DOLL AND LEFT HIM TO COLLIDE WITH THE LADDER THAT ABEL SET UP AT RINGSIDE TO GET BACK INTO THE RING! SOMETIMES YOU DON’T NEED FIRE TO HURT YOUR OPPONENT!
(Abel is sprawled out in pain while Roberto smirks and begins to make his way out of the ring, he stands on the apron for a short moment, looking around at the fire that surrounds his boots, yet despite that… completely unphased. From there, he jumps down to ringside.)
Gavin Kirkland: Roberto makes his way towards Abel- but Abel manages to send an elbow shot towards the abdomen of Roberto forcing him backward! Roberto is stunned for a moment as Abel tries to fight through the pain… BEFORE GRABBING THE HEAD OF ROBERTO AND SLAMMING HIM INTO THE BARRICADE! Roberto collides hard with the barricade, slouching down to a seated position clutching onto that already charred spine of his trying to nurse the wounds in hopes of pushing through it in this match. BUT IT’S ABEL THAT RUNS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH A KNEE STRIKE TO HIS HEAD WHICH STUNS HIM!
Deadprez: Abel isn’t done though, grabbing the head of Roberto and pulling him back up to his feet, looking to set him up… BEFORE TURNING HIM AROUND AND LOOKING TO SEND HIM SPINE FIRST INTO THE EDGE OF THE RING! RIGHT INTO THE FIERY FLAMES!
Eve: BUT ROBERTO SHIFTS HIS WEIGHT DOWN TO HIS FEET HOLDING HIM IN PLACE BEFORE HE TURNS AROUND AND REVERSES SENDING ABEL SPINEFIRST INTO THE FLAMES INSTEAD AS HE GIVES A CRY OF AGONY BEFORE SHOVING AWAY! ABEL RUNS FORWARD AS QUICKLY AS HE CAN-
Gavin Kirkland: BUT ROBERTO JUST WRAPPED HIS ARMS AROUND HIS WAIST AGAIN AND SENDS HIM RIGHT BACK AGAINST THE EDGE OF THE APRON! ABEL ATAMI’S BACK JUST HAS TO BE MUTILATED BY NOW THIS IS HORRIBLE!
(Roberto pulls Abel towards him before looking him dead in the eyes, a smirk growing on his face as Abel looks lifeless in his grasp.)
Roberto De La Rosa: (Off-Mic) El final está cerca.
Deadprez: ROBERTO JUST LIFTED ABEL UP AND LOOKS TO DROP HIM ONTO THE FIRE RIDDEN APRON WITH A BELLY-TO-BACK SUPLEX! DON’T DO IT!
Eve: NO! Abel manages to escape his grip and tumble down to the ground! Abel Atami just managed to preserve his chances but that doesn’t mean Roberto De La Rosa is down and out yet! Roberto turns around with fury in his eyes and begins to make his way towards Abel-
Gavin Kirkland: BUT HE HAS SOMETHING ELSE IN HIS EYES NOW ( :mjgrin: ) AS ABEL JUST TOOK WHAT’S LEFT OF HIS BARBED WIRE KENDO STICK AND SHOVED IT RIGHT IN THE LEFT EYE OF ROBERTO FORCING HIM BACKWARD! LOOK AT THE BLOOD THAT’S BEGINNING TO COME DOWN, THAT HAD TO HAVE DONE SOME DAMAGE TO HIS RETINA!
Deadprez: ABEL SLIDING ROBERTO INTO THE FIRE AND BACK INTO THE RING AS HE JUMPS BACK ONTO THE APRON COMPLETELY IGNORING THE FIRE BEFORE JUMPING BACK INTO THE RING HIMSELF! ABEL POINTS TO ROBERTO AND YELLS AT HIM TO GET BACK UP TO HIS FEET! HE HAS TO BE GOING FOR IT RIGHT HERE!
Eve: ‘VOLUME 2!’ ABEL JUST NAILED ROBERTO WITH THE HANDSPRING CUTTER NAILING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! THE FINISHING MANEUVER OF ABEL ATAMI CONNECTS ON ROBERTO DE LA ROSA AS ABEL ROLLS ROBERTO ONTO HIS BACK AND HOOKS THE LEG! PIN ATTEMPT! PIN ATTEMPT! WILL THIS BE IT RIGHT HERE?!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
…

…
Gavin Kirkland: KICK OUT! KICK OUT! ROBERTO JUST MANAGED TO KICK OUT OF THE FINISHER ATTEMPT BY ABEL AND LOOK AT THE CROWD ROAR IN APPROVAL!
(Abel sits up and looks absolutely shocked right now. He can’t believe what he’s seeing especially with the constant perseverance of Roberto De La Rosa here tonight. If there’s one thing he wants more than anything though, is to make sure that this match of all matches between the two ends with him standing tall with his hand raised high in victory over him.)
Deadprez: Abel grabbing onto the ropes to pull himself back up to his feet, before jumping over the top rope and rolling downward to the ringside area. He’s turning around and opening the apron looking to see what else could he possibly use right now in hopes of getting the better of Roberto? What the hell…
Eve: … Did he just pull out a boxing glove from out of the ring? Out of any weapon that he could’ve pulled out???
Gavin Kirkland: Jake Mercer told me that Abel Atami’s favorite celebrity is Jake Paul, so it’s pretty on-brand if you ask me. Besides, it’s his match, let him do what he wants gosh…
(Abel looks towards the boxing glove which he slowly places onto his hand, before looking down at the charred remains of the kendo stick that he used towards the beginning of this match. He then brings his glove towards the fire and sets that on fire as well! From there he looks towards the ring and smirks before jumping through the fire and entering back into the ring.)
Deadprez: Roberto is struggling to recover right now, I could only imagine how much power that took to even kick out in the first place. Meanwhile Abel lurks, you can see him wincing in pain but right now that isn’t really slowing him down as the boxing glove is burning bright! Roberto is up on a knee, AS ABEL TAKES A SWING TOWARDS THE HEAD OF ROBERTO!
(THUD!)
Eve: BUT ROBERTO ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY AS ABEL KNOCKS THE TOP TURNBUCKLE PADDING OFF INSTEAD! The turnbuckle padding tumbles down to the ground while Abel takes his boxing glove… AND SWINGS IT TOWARDS ROBERTO ONE MORE TIME! But Roberto rolls out of the way again! Roberto is still keeping himself upward on a knee, using his position to step forward and send a shot towards the abdomen of Abel as he turns around! ABEL TAKES A SWING ONE MORE TIME-
Gavin Kirkland: BUT ROBERTO JUST TOOK THE TURNBUCKLE PADDING AND THREW IT RIGHT AGAINST THE FACE OF ABEL! Superb precision especially considering he can probably only see out of one eye right now! Roberto using his foot to stomp out the flame on the boxing glove present on Abel’s hand still-
Deadprez: BUT ABEL JUST TOOK THE GLOVE AND PRESSED IT AGAINST THE LEG OF ROBERTO! ROBERTO SCREAMS IN PAIN AND IS FORCED BACK AS ABEL GETS BACK UP TO HIS FEET, BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A HARD RIGHT TO THE FACE OF ROBERTO DE LA ROSA!
Eve: Roberto is dropped down to the ground, and if this was boxing, this would be a knockout! Abel rips off the glove and tosses it away, BEFORE MOUNTING ON TOP OF ROBERTO AND BEGINNING TO TEE OFF ON THE FACE OF ROBERTO AS HE DESPERATELY TRIES TO BLOCK THE SHOTS AS BEST AS HE CAN! ABEL IS RELENTLESS AS IF THERE WAS ONE THING HE WAS SERIOUS ABOUT HEADING INTO THIS ONE, WAS THAT HE WAS GOING TO BE THE ONE COMING OUT ON TOP!
Gavin Kirkland: Abel is back up to his feet as he looks towards the ropes and back at Roberto, possibly looking to see if he can finish this off right here! Abel runs to the ropes and back while Roberto stumbles back up to his feet… ABEL IS GOING FOR ONE MORE AT ‘VOLUME 2!’ HANDSPRING CUTTER TO NAIL ROBERTO DE LA ROSA FOR THE VICTORY-
(CRACK!)
Deadprez: WHAT THE?! ROBERTO JUST TOOK A PAIR OF BRASS KNUCKLES OUT OF NOWHERE AND SLIPPED IT ONTO HIS HAND WHILE ABEL WASN’T LOOKING AND SLAMMED IT AGAINST HIS SKULL AS HE CAME FLYING BACK TOWARDS HIM!
Eve: ROBERTO NOW RETURNING THE FAVOR AND MOUNTING ON TOP OF ABEL BEFORE BEATING HIM SENSELESS WITH THE BRASS KNUCKLE FITTED ONTO HIS FIST! ROBERTO CAN BARELY SEE ANYTHING RIGHT NOW BUT IF THERE IS ONE THING HE CAN SEE IT’S THE REDNESS OF THE BLOOD THAT IS FLYING EVERYWHERE FROM ABEL ATAMI! I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW ROBERTO DE LA ROSA IS AWAKE RIGHT NOW BUT HE IS ABSOLUTELY TEEING OFF AND ABEL IS SO RATTLED THAT HE CAN’T EVEN DEFEND HIMSELF RIGHT NOW! THE SHEER BRUTALITY OF ROBERTO IS BEING SHOWN TONIGHT!
Gavin Kirkland: I CAN’T EVEN RECOGNIZE ABEL ATAMI ANYMORE AS ROBERTO SCOOPS HIM UP AND SETS HIM UP…
Deadprez: ‘THE CALLING CARD!’ ROBERTO DROPS ABEL RIGHT ONTO HIS HEAD AS ROBERTO ROLLS HIM OVER AND PINS HIM TO THE MAT! LEGS HOOKED AND SHOULDERS DOWN! THE REFEREE SLIDING DOWN AND GOING FOR THE PIN! THIS COULD BE IT! COULD ROBERTO DE LA ROSA GET A VICTORY HERE TONIGHT?!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
…
…
…
(DING! DING! DING!)
(‘Por Mi Mexico’ blasts through the speakers of the arena as the San Antonio crowd absolutely goes berserk for Roberto De La Rosa who pulls himself off of the battered corpse of Abel Atami and collapses back down to the canvas. The crowd is more excited than ever as the referee immediately slides into the ring after the fire is diminished and checks on the two of them. It’s clear that they were just at war tonight and in the end only one of them could come out on top, that ended up being Roberto who is feeling the aftereffects himself with all of the adrenaline beginning to die down.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner… ROBERTO DE LA ROSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: What a match that we’ve just been able to witness tonight from two of Saturday Night Showdown’s best rising stars! It’s clear that the two of them have hated one another’s guts for the longest time now. Finally they got the chance to settle the score and finish this heated feud once and for all, and they did not disappoint.
Gavin Kirkland: Even I really can’t say anything negative about this, sure it isn’t a women’s match, but it’s one of the best male matches that you can get from two Elitists who are very passionate about what they do. So you know what? Regardless of the result, kudos to both of them.
Deadprez: Through the fire and flames there was only one person that stood tall in the end, and that ended up being Roberto De La Rosa. He showed just how violent he could get inside of the squared circle and made sure there was no doubt left in anyone’s mind who would be the victor. Both of them are charred and burnt but Roberto outlasted and in the end outsmarted the smaller Abel to stand tall in victory.
Eve: You have to give Abel some credit too. He had to nearly die in order to be kept down and that’s exactly what happened. The pain, agony, and the effort that Roberto put in to beat him to a bloody pulp was too much for him, but I have no doubt that he stood out amongst the rest. These two are people to look out for in the future of EAW, one stands above all. Tonight, that honor goes to Roberto De La Rosa.
(Roberto is finally able to get back up to his feet thanks to the help of the referee as his hand is raised high in the air in victory. He looks down at Abel, who is being tended to by medical, not saying anything as he drops down and rolls out of the ring. He winces in pain with every step he takes but fights through it as he makes his way towards the backstage area. It’s the last shot seen as from there, Dia Del Diablo then begins to fade to elsewhere.)
(Backstage…)
(Adam Lucas is pictured in the arena gym, working out and getting the adrenaline pumping ahead of his match later tonight. So focused is he on the workout, he doesn’t notice anyone else. Intermittently however he hears the noises associated with effort, and he turns his head to face none other than Lexi who is working out next to him. For a few moments Adam tries to continue, not wanting anything to distract him, but slowly his attention starts to wane, so that he has no choice but to stop. He looks over at Lexi, who continues doing what she is doing, a puzzled look forming on Adam’s face.”
Adam Lucas: What the hell are you doing?
(Lexi stops her workout, and she too has a puzzled look on her face.)
Adam Lucas: Lexi, I’m trying to work out here, what are you up to?
Lexi: Bethany???
(Lexi gets to her feet, and looks behind the corner of the room, shaking her head in disappointment. She sniffs the air, like a bloodhouse, trying to get to the source of the scent. She even pulls back a curtain, believing that Bethany may be playing hide and seek behind it. Eventually she looks at Adam, as if looking for help.)
Adam Lucas: She’s not here you know?
(Lexi obviously doesn’t believe him and bends down to look underneath a table.)
Adam Lucas: I’m telling the truth Lexi; she didn’t make the trip.
(Lexi stops looking and crosses her arms.)
Lexi: But, I can smell her perfume, she has a distinct sweet smell and aroma like a field of lavender and roses, you’re lying to me. Why would you lie to me Adam?
Adam Lucas: I’m not lying, I promise. I dunno, maybe I got her scent on my clothes or something, but I can assure you that she isn’t here. We agreed that she shouldn’t come.
Lexi: But why, she’s your fiancée, you should spend every waking moment together. I remember when I used to be her girlfriend there wasn’t a moment that we were having fun together.
(Adam chuckles while quite annoyed.)
Adam Lucas: That might be your idea of a relationship, but it certainly isn’t ours. Anyway, she has a huge match at Reckless Wiring that she needs to be concentrating on, and I thought it would be best if she focused on that, instead of worrying about what happened tonight between me and Impact. I mean, I love that she is concerned about me, but it can’t be to the detriment of her own career. Anyway, she’s changed Lexi, she’s not the woman you knew
Lexi: That’s not true
Adam Lucas: OK, I don’t want to argue, but she’s not here. That is the truth.
(Lexi scowls, though at least it seems like she believes him. She then sticks out her bottom lip, obviously a little deflated by this latest information, but then her mood seems to perk up, as another idea enters her head.)
Lexi: OK, so maybe we could all go out and get drunk later and celebrate our success? My treat? Me and Bethany had some of the best times, maybe all three of all could have them too? You seem to be an ok guy, I promise you won’t be a third wheel.
(By now Adam has become really confused. But again, he shakes his head.)
Adam Lucas: Well, sorry to disappoint you, but she’s in Oklahoma for Dynasty. She has a match.
(Now Lexi looks totally deflated, the wind well and truly taken from her sails. She already imagined what it would be like and to see her plans go up in smoke took some of the shine from her inevitable victory. She sighs, a look deep sigh, but then she smiles, and before Adam can react, she throws her arms around him and gives him a huge hug. Adam keeps his hands out straight, not reciprocating the hug and worried how it might look.)
Lexi: No problem, if Bethany can’t be there, you and I can go out and get drunk. It will be amazing, trust me
Adam Lucas: Err, I’m not sure. Bethany might not like it.
Lexi: It’s fine Adam, we can be besties, I know it. Good Luck in your match, I know you can beat that big dickhead, Impact.
Adam Lucas: Thanks
Lexi: You’re most welcome. Now, you wish me luck.
Adam Lucas: Err…
Lexi: Adam, we are best friends forever, and best friends have each other’s backs. Wish me luck please.
(Adam stands there awkwardly, not sure what is happening. Lexi crosses her arms again, and plants her foot.)
Lexi: Adam Lucas, I am not leaving until you wish me luck. Let’s not make this awkward.
(Adam, feeling totally admonished like he is at school, feels backed into a corner, and he is already feeling awkward so he does the only thing that he can.)
Adam Lucas: Lexi… good luck?
(For a moment she doesn’t react, but then a huge smile forms on her face, satisfied that she has gotten what she wants.)
Lexi: YAY!!! Thank you.
(She claps her hands together, and then gives him an even bigger hug than before, before then walking away down the corridor. Adam stands there, totally perplexed as Limmy Monaghan walks by.)
Adam Lucas: What the hell just happened???
Limmy Monaghan: Uhhh…. no.
(The scene fades to ringside and the graphic to the next match..)
OLIVIATATEVSLEXI.png (610×310) (ibb.co)
(Tha camera pans at ringside where there is a pole and a blowtorch hanging from it. Gina Romano is in the ring to make the introductions…)
Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Gina Romano: This is a BLOWTORCH ON A POLE MATCH! And can be used at any point of the match once it is retrieved, remember it is anything goes! Introducing first, she hails from Detroit, MI.! Weighing in at 117 pounds! “THE MOTOR CITY MACHINE GUN” LEXI!!!!!
(“Mr. Brightside” by The Killers plays throughout the arena as Lexi slowly walks out, a smile on her face. She takes a second to look at the sold out crowd before hopping the rest of the way, she cracks a smirk and slides into the ring, running to the corner, and climbing up, pointing out into the crowd…)
Deadprez: Here comes Lexi and she has been impressive since her return and had a fantastic Main Event match with Ronan Malosi last week which we know she is still feeling the effects of it, but tonight, we have seen some real interesting interaction between her and Olivia Tate, her opponent tonight, definitely two gals from the different side of the spectrum.
Eve: They really are, Lexi is a tough kid from Detroit, we know about her pedigree and most importantly, she is a young woman that is looking for her place on the Blue Brand after having a less than stellar last season. We saw earlier her interaction with Adam Lucas, her social media hits to Limmy Monaghan, after her relationship with Dr. Bethany Blue, I don’t know what to think of her but in the ring, this little one is dangerous and I would hate to see what she can do with a blowtorch in her hand!
Gavin Kirkland: Her and Thiccany together was a dream come true, but now since she has been back, is it me or has she come back hotter. Doesn’t matter, Olivia Tate is a dream come true!
(Lexi gets a mixed reaction but she doesn’t care, shrugging her shoulders and getting down, pacing in the ring when her music dies down and it is replaced with ‘Brutal’ by Olivia Rodrigo as the fans get up and boo, some of the make attendants clap hard for the beautiful Olivia Tate who slowly walks out in pink and black, looking around with a sexy yet disgusted look as Texas must smell like stale BBQ and frijoles.)
Gina Romano: Her opponent! She hails from New York City, New York! Weighing in at 143 pounds… she is THE MEAN GIRL… OLIVIA TATE!
(Olivia shows off her assets and walks to the ring though she looks both annoyed and gleeful at the same time, though the minute she sees the blowtorch it automatically changes her expression quickly.)
Deadpez: Here is the very beautiful and talented Olivia Tate! This gal has star written all over her and she looks to make a statement here tonight, but I like her, a huge future on Showdown and this could be the start, the girl is a total package.
Gavin Kirkland: She is a national treasure for Showdown and when she defeats Lexi tonight, she will go on to bigger and better things. Olivia is our next KWEEN!
Eve: She has all the talent in the world, but this girl is a real bitch.
(Olivia stops, rolling her eyes before walking up the steps of the ring and once in, asks for the mic, Gina hands it to her…)
Olivia Tate: Okay, first of all, I hate Texas, it’s nasty and all of you smell like longhorn manure!
(The crowd boos hastily…).
Olivia Tate: (Off Mic) Secondly, I’m 138 Pounds now, since I can’t eat any of this shit that Texas has to offer, I mean like ewww! Really, RIBS!? You actually grab them with your hands and take a bite out ribs!? Okay… just stop! Avocado toast for me.
(The crowd boos even louder at the insults that Olivia is throwing at them. She turns and smirks, looking right at Gina, getting in her face…)
Olivia Tate: Lastly!? I am from UPPER EASTSIDE NEW YORK! Not just plain dainty, New York. That Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx shit doesn;t work for me, honey. Nuh uh. So get it right next time!
(She slams the mic in the chest of Gina who looks absolutely stunned. Lexi stands in the corner rolling her eyes as Olivia turns to her after taking off her entrance gear, both ladies looking at the blowtorch.)
Eve: A bitch, see?
Gavin Kikrland: That is what makes her so sexy! Give me more!
(Both women stay in their respective corners staring across the ring at each other while the hot San Antonio crowd roars with excitement and anticipation for the prospective carnage these two women will unleash on each other. The two then look towards the neutral corner and up to the Blowtorch that hangs from the pole attached to the ring, both women having evil thoughts on their minds…)
Deadprez: Both women looking on at the weapon of choice for this match, whoever gets their hands on it first are free to use it as they see fit.
Eve: But let’s be honest on this night we’re not going to see wrestling as Hurricane Hawk always demands on Showdown. NO! This is going to be brutal. This is going to be something else entirely…
Gavin Kirkland: This is going to be TERRIBLE! It will be Épouvantable! I don’t think I will be able to watch these two beautiful women deface each other like this.
Eve: Oh god, he’s breaking out the French, let’s get this match started!!
DING!!! DING!!! DING!!!
Eve: The bell has rung and both women now are starting to circle each other and weighing up their options. Olivia Tate is the first to make a move and the two lock horns in the middle of the ring, a test of strength between the two. Neither looks like they are going to give it up but Lexi pushes Olivia Tate away winning the battle this time.
Deadprez: Lexi smirking now as Tate looks out to the crowd and shakes her head.
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): I let her do that. I let her do that!
(Lexi rolls her eyes while Tate shouts at a fan in the front row about something. Her attention being grabbed by Lexi though.)
Lexi (Off Mic): Are we going to do this or what bitch?!
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi trying to goad the future hollywood starlet Olivia Tate!
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): Bitch?! Who do you think you’re talking to?! I’m Olivia TATE! The future of EA-
Deadprez: Looks like it worked, Olivia doesn’t finish her sentence and instead charges at Lexi but gets a forearm shot to the face for her troubles. Lexi hits another forearm and another, she then sends Olivia Tate across the ring with an irish whip to the ropes. Tate hits the cables and…
Eve: Lexi doubles over for a back body drop but NO! Tate held onto the top rope halting her momentum. She now runs up and plants a stiff kick to the chest of Lexi! Lexi stumbles back and is taken down with a lariat for good measures! A quick cover!
ON-
Gavin Kirkland: That wasn’t even a one count there, way too early in this match but knowing Olivia Tate that was to send a message to Lexi.
(Tate steps up and backs away a moment while watching Lexi roll away. Lexi glares at her as she holds the back of her head.)
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): I could have beat you there.
Deadprez: Olivia talking a lot of shit to Lexi, she needs to be careful we know those chambers have a hell of a temper.
Eve: Lexi back to her feet though, Tate motions for her to come at her and Lexi obliges the two locking up but Tate quickly counters and drives a knee into the gut of Lexi. She drives another knee into her gut before clubbing the back instead and dragging Lexi to a corner.
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi up against it in the corner, Tate hits a vicious chop to the chest and this crowd absolutely loves it.
CHOP!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOO!!!
CHOP!!
Crowd: WOOOOOOO!!!
CHOP!!!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOO!!!!
(Lexi screams in pain from the vicious chops by Olivia Tate. Who attempts a fourth for good measure, but this time LExi ducks under and spins Tate into the corner instead!)
Eve: COUNTER BY LEXI! SPIN KICK BY LEXI ON TATE. NOW SHE IS UNLOADING CHOPS OF HER OWN!! SHE’S RETURNING THE FAVOUR!!
CHOP!!!
CHOP!!!
CHOP!!!
CHOP!!!
CROWD: WOOOO!! WOOOOO!!! WOOOO!!! WOOOO!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Sexi Lexi with those vicious chops! She has hold of Olivia and now what does she have in store… RUNNING BULLDOG INTO THE CANVAS and now the cover!! WHY DO THESE TWO HAVE TO FIGHT LIKE THIS, WHY CAN’T IT BE IN JELLO OR MUD?!
ONE!!!
T-
Deadprez: NO! KICK OUT BY TATE, THE GIRL WASN’T HAVING ANY OF THAT!
Eve: No she wasn’t, but Lexi isn’t wasting time at all. She has her eyes set on that blowtorch!
(Lexi gets to her feet and makes a beeline to the corner and looks up at the weapon of choice hanging freely. She begins to scale the corner and…)
Gavin Kirkland: TATE IS UP AND GRABBING AT HER PANTS, ARE WE GOING TO GET ANOTHER KIND OF SHOW NOW?!
Eve: NO! Elbow from Lexi on Tate knocks her back. Lexi continues to climb to the second turnbuckle now the third. Tate rushes back to the corner as Lexi reaches the top turnbuckle and PUSHES HER LEGS OUT FROM UNDER HER!! LEXI FALLS AND LANDS ON THE APRON HARD!!!
CRACK!!!
Deadprez: THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING! FROM THAT HEIGHT, SHE’S A TINY LITTLE THING. GRAVITY TAKING NO PRISONERS TONIGHT!
Gavin Kirkland: Tate is now just biding her time, she knows that had to take a lot out of Lexi.
Eve: Olivia Tate has something in mind, she’s looking up at the Blowtorch and then back to Lexi who is holding her back. She goes for Lexi, Tate exits the ring to the apron and pulls LExi up into a front face lock and the crowd is beginning to buzz!
Gavin Kirkland: What is Tate going to do… BRAINBUSTER ONTO THE APRON!!! A HUGE BRAINBUSTER ON LEXI, ON THE APRON!
CROWD: OOOOOH!!!
Deadprez: Tate felt some of that herself as she rolled to the outside. Lexi though caught ALL of that impact on the hardest part of the ring!
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!! YOU SEE THAT?!
Eve: Tate gloating to the fans in the front row there and they aren’t having any of it, the boos are deafening here right now in San Antonio! Lexi is showing signs of life though with Olivia now noticing as well. Tate rushes to Lexi and grabs hold of her head and while holding her hair places Lexi’s neck on her shoulder.
Gavin Kirkland: Olivia Tate getting creative here, she’s pulling Lexi partially off the apron and hits APRON ASSISTED NECKBREAKER TO THE OUTSIDE!! LEXI IS DONE! MY SWEET LEXI IS GONE!!!
CROWD: OOOOOH!!!!!
(Olivia Tate sits at ringside now as the official exits the ring to check on Lexi who is still showing signs of life. Olivia sneers a little before focing her attention back on Lexi and grabbing her by the hair and rolling her into the ring.)
Gavin Kirkland: God don’t sneer Livvy, you’ll get wrinkles like Eve!
Eve: HEY!!
Deadprez: If you two would keep your eyes on the prize, we got ourselves a cover!!
ONE!!!!!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWW-
Eve: NO!!! KICK OUT BY LEXI!! SOMEHOW SHE KICKED OUT OF THAT AND OLIVIA TATE CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!
Gavin Kirkland: I CAN’T BELIEVE IT, I THOUGHT THAT WAS IT!
(Olivia sits there on the canvas staring daggers through the official.)
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): REF! REF! COUNT FASTER DAMN YOU!!!
Referee (Off Mic): NO!
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): You suck!!
(Lexi begins to stir as the EAW fans in San Antonio, Texas begin to chant her name. Olivia is back on her feet and shaking her head at them…)
Crowd: LEXI!!! LEXI!!! LEXI!!!
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): NO! CHANT MY NAME YOU IDIOTS!! I’M THE STAR, NOT HER!! OLIVIA!!!! OLIVIA!!! OLIVIA!!!
(Olivia Tate begins to walk around the ring trying to get the crowd on her side but to no avail, they only boo. The one person however doing as she asked is…)
Gavin Kirkland: OLIVIA!!! OLIVIA!!! OLIV- OW, WHAT WAS THAT FOR EVE?
Eve: Show some damn restraint Gavin!!
Deadprez: Tate looks like she’s had enough of Texas and Lexi tonight and heads to the corner where the Blowtorch hangs. Tate starts to climb the corner and the look on her eyes tells us she is looking to end this.
Gavin Kirkland: Olivia Tate, the queen is about to get her treasure that Blowtorch… God I don’t even want to think about what she will do to Lexi…
(Tate reaches the top of the turnbuckle and begins to steady herself and reach up towards the Blowtorch, the EAW crowd buzzing both with excitement and raining boo’s in the same breath. TAte reaches out to the handle and stops when…)
Eve: OH MY GOD A BACKSTABBER FROM LEXI!!! SHE SPRINGBOARD ONTO THE ROPES AND GRABBED OLIVIA TATE AND HIT A BACKSTABBER OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!!!
Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOH!!!!!!!
(The sound of Olivia Tate screaming in pain is music to this Texas crowd’s ears as it is Lexi’s but she took rolls in pain holding her back as well.)
Deadprez: THAT WAS A HIGH RISK, HIGH REWARD MOVE RIGHT THERE. The question is can Lexi capitalise on it or will it all be for NOTHING!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HIGH REWARD, I GAIN NOTHING FROM THIS OTHER THAN HORROR!
Eve: THIS ISN’T ABOUT YOU GAVIN! IT’S ABOUT THESE TWO WOMEN WHO WANT TO PROVE SOMETHING TO THE OTHER!!
Deadprez: Eve is right, get it together man you’re embarrassing yourself! These two women have bigger balls than you right now.
Gavin Kirkland: ….
(Lexi rolls over to her hands and knees holding her lower back before slapping the mat to get her head back in the game. The official asks if she wants to stop and she tells them no. Olivia rolls over to her back and Lexi crawls across to her with haste and lays back on her for the cover.
ONE!!!
TW-
Gavin Kirkland: NO!!! TATE REVERSES WITH A CRICIFIX PIN
ONE!!!!
TWO!!!
THR-
Eve: NO!! LEXI SHIFTS THE MOMENTUM BACK INTO HER FAVOUR!! SPINS THROUGH GRABBING HOLD OF TATES LEGS AND FLIPS THROUGH FOR THE COVER ATTEMPT.
ONE!!!!
TWO!!!
THR-
Deadprez: NO!!!! TATE HOLDS ONTO LEXI’S WAIST AND PUSHES UP, THE CORE OF THESE WOMEN AS THEY SPIN THROUGH,!!
Gavin Kirkland: Their cores are incredible!! BOTH these women are incredible! But Tate has Lexi up and hits a sidewalk slam and covers!!!!
ONE!!!!
TWO!!!!!
THR-
Eve: KICK OUT BY LEXI!!! SHE LEFT THAT TILL THE NEAR END!!
(Olivia Tate sits up and screams loudly in frustration as she hits the mat furiously. Lexi begins to roll away holding at her back again. Tate rolls to the outside of the ring and lifts the apron curtain and shakes her head furiously now while looking for something.)
Deadprez: The star looking for something, adds her own piece of chaos to this match. What do you think it is?”
Gavin Kirkland: It’s Dia Del Diablo, there could be anything under that ring. ANYTHING! But she has found herself a table!
(The crowd roars at the sight of Olivia beginning to pull a table out from underneath the ring.)
Eve: Olivia is looking for an assist with some wood for Lexi. God, now I sound like Gavin!
Crowd: TABLES!!! CLAP CLAP!!! TABLES CLAP CLAP TABLES!!
Deadprez: Olivia has the legs out and has flipped that table upright. But she is NOT done there, Gavin’s Kweeeen is looking under the ring for something else… What is it?!
Eve: What is it?!
(Tate finds what she was looking for and removes it from under the ring…)
Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD, LIGHTER FUEL! SHE FOUND LIGHTER FUEL!!!
(The crowd ROARS at the sight of the lighter fuel in Olivia’s hand, she immediately begins to empty the contents over the surface of the table)
Gavin Kirkland: Whoa there Olivia, you’re not here to have a Barbeque!!!
Eve: I don’t think she cares now, she’s had enough of this match and her opponent and is looking to end things! Olivia climbs onto the Apron and looks down at the table for a moment before looking up at the Blowtorch once again.
Deadprez: But again she’s taken her eye off the prize, that prize not the Blowtorch but her opponent Lexi! LEXI BACK UP CHARGES AT OLIVIA WITH A LARIAT OF HER OWN. BUT TATE BLOCKS AND FIRES OFF A RIGHT HAND KNOCKING LEXI BACK TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING.
Eve: Tate enters the ring and runs at Lexi for a clothesline of her own, but Lexi ducks under the attempt, Tate however carries on running to the cables across the ring. Lexi spins around quickly however and leaps up into the air knowing when Tate returns and catches her with a Lou Thez Press!
Gavin: Huge Lou Thez Press from my other Kweeen! Lexi unloads those right hands into the face of Olivia Tate who blocks as best she can. God I can’t decide who I want to win this, can’t they both do it?!
Deadprez: NO they can’t and this Texas crowd is fully behind Lexi tonight, Olivia’s words at the beginning of the match were enough to turn them against her.
CROWD: LEXI!!! CLAP CLAP CLAP!!!! LEXI!!! CLAP CLAP CLAP!!!!
(The crowd roars in full support of Lexi who is back on her feet, she is feeling the support and losing herself in that moment as she looks up to the pole and immediately begins to climb the corner without a second thought.)
Gavin Kirkland: Sexi Lexi is going after the Blowtorch!
Eve: Olivia is still stunned from those shots moments ago, she isn’t aware where Lexi is and… SHE HAS THE BLOWTORCH!! THE BLOWTORCH IS IN PLAY!!!
Gavin Kirkland: YES!!! WAIT NO!!! I MEAN… YES!!! OH MY GOD I CAN’T WATCH NOW….
Deadprez: LISTEN TO THIS CROWD!!!! THEY’RE ELECTRIC AND NOW OLIVIA HAS NOTICED WHAT IS GOING ON. Lexi turns to face Olivia who quickly rolls out of the ring shaking her head wanting none of that and heads to the aisle.
Eve: Smart move by Olivia, creating some separation there but… OH MY GOD!!! SPRINGBOARD CROSSBODY FROM LEXI!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT IN THE HELL?!
Deadprez: THAT WAS INSANE!!
(The crowd becomes unglued as the replay shows Lexi run across the top rope and springboard off them to hit a spectacular crossbody on Olivia Tate in the aisle. Lexi rolls off and to her feet still holding the Blowtorch.)
Gavin Taylor: That WAS spectacular from Lexi but now I have to go back to not watching!!!
Deadprez: I can’t keep my eyes off this, I do NOT want to miss a damn thing. LExi now has Olivia on her feet and hits a chop with her free hand. Olivia stumbles back to the ring.
Eve: Olivia doesn’t know what is going on, I think she is still stunned Lexi reached her from that far in the aisle. Lexi grabs Olivia by the hair but gets a rake to the eyes for her trouble. Lexi staggers back and drops the blowtorch holding her eyes, Olivia immediately picks it up. And now she is grinning…
Gavin Kirkland: Tate has the blowtorch now and oh god… she has no means to turn it on… THANK GOD.
Deadprez: She doesn’t care and rams the blowtorch into the face of Lexi! Lexi is screaming loudly as she holds her head on the ground, the signs of blood now seeping through her fingers! Olivia pulls Lexi to her feet and drags her towards the ring by her hair. Lexi tries to fight back but gets a knee to the gut knocking the wind out of her.
Eve: Olivia rolls Lexi into the ring and walks around to the table she had set up earlier. Now she is inspecting the Blowtorch a little more…
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): HOW THE HELL DO I TURN THIS ON?!
(Olivia continues to fiddle with the tool until a member of the ring crew comes up to assist her, there are boo’s from the crowd.)
Gavin Kirkland: Don’t know why they’re booing, they want to see someone burn don’t they?!
Deadprez: Looks more like they enjoyed her struggling to turn the thing on. But NOW IT IS ON AND SHE’S JUST SET THE TABLE ON FIRE!!!
Eve: ALL THAT FUEL IGNITED AND NOW ENGULFING THE TABLE… THIS IS ABSURD!! OUR CREW IS ON HAND WITH EXTINGUISHERS!!! OLIVIA NOW SEES LEXI AND LEAPS ONTO THE APRON.
Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD, WE’RE GOING TO SEE A ROAST LEXI!!
Eve: I don’t know what we’re going to see, but right now we have Olivia Tate on the apron and dazed Lexi using the ropes to get to her feet. Olivia is waiting for her to get up and… She stops she was doing, the blowtorch has gone out…
Olivia Tate (Off Mic): WHAT HELL, WHAT HAPPENED TO IT?!
Deadprez: I don’t know what happened, but woman look behind you!!! Olivia suddenly realises what Deadprez was saying and turns around to get caught with a right hand from Lexi. Lex throws another, but Olivia blocks it and clocks Lexi with the base of the can staggering her.
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi is stunned, NO! DROPKICK TO OLIVIA!!
(The crowd roars loudly as Olivia drops the can to the outside but it is to hold onto the top ropes to stop herself from falling into the flaming table behind her.)
Deadprez: Olivia has the deer in the headlights look as she feels the heat finally catching up to her and i’m not talking about this Texas heat either!! Tate pulls herself back upright, but only for a spin kick into the gut from Lexi. Lexi rakes the eyes of Olivia now and pulls her through the middle ropes half way and starts to club furiously at her back.
Eve: Tate is blocking but to no avail, Lexi runs the ropes quickly and drives a knee into the side of Olivia Tates skull. She is being held up by that middle rope!!! Lexi looks at the blood on her hands and spits on the back of Olivia Tate…. HOLY SHIT!!!
Deadprez: HOLY SHIT!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HOLY SHIT!!!!!!
CROWD: HOLY SHIT!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!
Deadprez: LEXI JUST SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB OLIVIA GAWD DAMN TATE THROUGH A GAWD DAMN FLAMING TABLE!!!! LISTEN TO THIS CROWD, IT’S DROWNING OUT THE SCREAMS OF OLIVIA AND LEXI!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: I CAN’T WATCH THIS OH MY GOD, I CAN SMELL THEM…
(Both women are screaming loudly as the fire burns them both, Olivia more than Lexi it would seem. Ring crew rush over and unload a lot of Co2 to put the fire out and the two women. The EAW fans continue to chant Holy shit as all eyes focus on Co2 covered Lexi and Olivia Tate…)
Eve: I don’t know what Lexi was thinking with that but she isn’t wasting any time getting out of that wreckage. I don’t even want to know what these two women’s bodies are going to be like after this…
Gavin Kirkland: I know!! I will want to picture them both flawless like before this match!!!
Deadprez: This night is going to leave a lot of scars, these two women most definitely whether mentally or physically who knows. But Tate is down and out, Lexi is pulling her out of the rubble she wants to end this.
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi rolls Olivia into the ring, follows after her and covers…
ONE….
TWO….
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
DING!! DING!!! DING!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: FINALLY!!! CAN WE GET EMTS DOWN HERE PRONTO!!!
Gina Romano: Ladies and Gentlemen, the winner of this match as a result of a pin fall… LEXI!!!!
(Mr Brightside by the Killers hits over the P.A System as the crowd roars loudly, Lexy continues to lay on top of Olivia Tate who still hasn’t moved herself. The EAW crowd applauding both women as medical personally rush down to the ring to tend to their wounds.)
Eve: What a match these two put on, it had a little of everything and right now its left Gavin Speechless, which is always a GOOD thing.
Deadprez: Hell of a spectacle. Lexi pulls off a huge win here tonight in San Antonio, Texas at Dia Del Diablo and god damn we still have a lot to come.
(The final shot of the EMT’s treating both women in the ring.)
(The graphics appear for the next match….)
https://i.ibb.co/JqPzTZc/Theron-Nikolasvs-Amir-Yusuf.png
(“Elevate” by DJ Khalil begins to blast through the speakers as Amir Yusuf walks out with the barbed wire crutch as his choice of weapon going into this match. The crowd is totally up on their feet, showing some love to ‘The Heart of EAW.’ Instead of his happy and cheerful self, he seems a lot calmer and focused and it’s obviously because he is going to be focusing on a very game, Theron Nikolas.)
Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING MATCH IS SCHEDULED IS A TRIAL BY FIRE MATCH AND IT’S SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!!!!!!!!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!!!!!!!
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST…FROM CHICAGO, ILLINOIS…WEIGHING IN 182 POUNDS…HE IS “THE HEART OF EAW”…AMIR YUSUF!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Amir Yusuf was the man who asked for this challenge and he gets Theron Nikolas in a Trial By Fire match. There are going to be weapons scattered around ringside. There are two tiki fire pits; one on each side of us, which can be used to engulf whatever weapon that these two’s hearts desire.
Eve: Amir Yusuf is looking at this match as a sort of redemption from him. He let it be known that he was ashamed about how his run as New Breed Champion went, but defeating someone of Theron Nikolas’ caliber, would be the biggest victory of his career and it could possibly put him back in the title hunt.
Deadprez: Now, Amir Yusuf is a hard worker. He does his research and is always looking for ways to get better. I heard that he was doing research about this match, but it should be interesting to see what gets brought into this match from that research.
(“The Rumbling” by SiM replaces “Elevate” as the crowd is totally roaring in anticipation as Theron Nikolas comes out with a focused look on his face as well. He knows that his streak at FPVs hasn’t been the best, but he’s looking to change all that and at the expense of Amir Yusuf.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING HIS OPPONENT…FROM EDMONTON, ALBERTA, CANADA…WEIGHING IN 224 POUNDS HE IS THE “GHOST”…THERON NIKOLAS!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Quite a few people have said that this man should be the Answers World Champion. I call him the uncrowned Answers World Champion, but I do think that he’ll get his due one day. He has a tougher road to overcome, but like him or hate him, you can not deny the performances that this man puts in all of his matches. Although, it’s been a tough season for Theron Nikolas and you gotta feel for him. He’s had a lot of close calls, but it’s just not clicking.
Eve: Theron Nikolas’ rise back into the World Championship picture is one of the most intriguing things to watch, but this was one of the first matches for Theron on Showdown this season. These two are quite familiar with each other. Theron has been able to defeat Amir, but Amir can’t say the same thing about Theron.
Deadprez: Theron has made it clear that he thinks that he’s better than Amir and honestly, is Theron not giving Amir enough credit?
Gavin Kirkland: Theron Nikolas is confident in his abilities. He considers himself one of the best on Showdown but is Amir ready to prove to everyone that he can defeat Theron Nikolas and begin his own rise through the ranks on Showdown! We’re going to figure that out…RIGHT NOW!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: AMIR YUSUF SWINGS THE BARBED WIRE CRUTCH TO THE FORMER ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION, BUT THERON NIKOLAS IS ABLE TO DUCK AS HE DELIVERS A SIDE-HANDED CHOP TO THE CHEST OF THE FORMER NEW BREED CHAMPION! AMIR IS TAKEN BACK AS THERON GOES FOR ANOTHER SIDE-HANDED CHOP! AND ANOTHER ONE! AND ANOTHER ONE! HE DOES THIS UNTIL HE BACKS AMIR TO THE HORIZONTAL SET OF ROPES, WHERE HE HOLDS HIM THERE, BUT THERE’S NOT MUCH THAT THE REFEREE CAN DO IN THIS SITUATION! But, Theron pats Amir on the top of his head before raising his hands up and backing away from the younger Elitist! It seems like Theron is offering Amir a test of strength! After all, this is STILL Showdown and WE WRESTLE!
Eve: It seems like Amir Yusuf is a bit hesitant to accept the test of strength from the man who once called himself the ‘God Emperor.’ But, slowly, he begins to make his way to accept the test of strength from Theron Nikolas! Hand-to-hand, the two Elitists attempt to push the other back; however, it seems like the stronger Theron is able to push Amir back into the ropes! But, Amir with a slap to the chest of the former World Champion! Theron looks to throw a punch to Amir, but Amir ducks at the very last second before running towards the ropes behind Theron, rebounding off of them, but Theron is able to stop Amir in his tracks with a giant knee strike to the stomach!
Deadprez: Theron Nikolas grabs Amir Yusuf by his wrist before whipping him to the other set of horizontal ropes as Amir easily rebounds off of them, but Theron hooks Amir by his arms and connects with a hip toss as Amir is able to catch himself but — THERON HAS AMIR IN POSITION FOR ‘GOD REQUIEM’ — BUT AMIR IS ABLE TO SLIDE OFF THE FINISH BEFORE THERON COULD CONNECT WITH IT. HE KNOWS THAT HE NEEDS TO AVOID THAT ‘GOD’S REQUIEM,’ WHICH HAS BEEN USED TO PUT AWAY SEVERAL ELITISTS IN THE PAST.
Gavin Kirkland: Amir Yusuf looks like he just avoided death in this match-up. Theron Nikolas has a small smirk on his face, knowing that he had Amir Yusuf where he wanted him and could probably end things there, but it was thanks to Amir being quick on his feet, which is the reason why this match is still continuing. Now, look at this, Eve!
Eve: It seems like Amir Yusuf is now initiating a lock-up with Theron Nikolas. It seemed like the small chuckle from the former World Champion almost rubbed Amir the wrong way! But, who is Theron to back away from a challenge?
Deadprez: You’re right about that Eve! It seems like Theron Nikolas is accepting Amir Yusuf’s challenge for a lock-up! The two launch at each other for a lock-up, but Theron gets Amir with a wrist-lock! You can see a bit of pain on the face of the former New Breed Champion as Theron is bending his arm back! Theron is resting his chin on Amir’s left shoulder, almost like in a taunting way before Amir retaliates with an elbow to the face of Theron! However, Theron is able to go for a wrist-lock on Amir’s other wrist! Theron has possession of both of Amir’s wrists which are twisted behind him!
Gavin Kirkland: Theron Nikolas now traps the arms of Amir Yusuf before connecting with an arm-trapped German suplex with a bridge! He holds Amir for the cover!
OOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: The first pinfall attempt of the match up and Amir Yusuf manages to find himself in a seated position and look at this, Gavin and DP! HE PINS THERON’S SHOULDER’S DOWN WHILE THERON IS STILL IN A BRIDGE POSITION! IS AMIR GOING TO STEAL THE VICTORY HERE?!?!?
OOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: No! Theron Nikolas gets his shoulders up before getting himself into a seated position! Meanwhile, Amir Yusuf connects with a powerful-looking shoot kick to the back of Theron’s spine! He manages to get Theron by a fistful of his hair, getting him back to his feet before being shoved away from Theron, but Amir charges towards Theron, who looks to connect with a clothesline, but Amir ducks the clothesline before rebounding himself off the set or ropes of him! Theron looks to follow Amir, but Amir springboards off the set of ropes and connects with a hurricanrana!
Gavin Kirkland: This causes Theron Nikolas to be all dizzy, but Amir Yusuf follows that up with a dropkick that sends Theron into one of the corners! Amir doesn’t waste any time as he charges towards the former World Champion with a helluva kick as Theron eats the boot! He stumbles forward, BUT AMIR IS ABLE TO THROW HIM BACK INTO ONE OF THE CORNERS BEFORE CONNECTING WITH SERIES OF SHOOT KICKS TO THE CHEST AND RIBS OF THERON! THERON IS TRYING TO COVER HIMSELF AND BLOCK ALL OF THESE SHOTS, BUT AMIR IS NAILING HIM WITH EACH ONE! AMIR STANDS ON THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE AS HE PROCEEDS TO HIT THERON WITH SOME PUNCHES TO THE TOP OF HIS HEAD!
Eve: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! — THERON NIKOLAS IS LIFTING AMIR YUSUF IN A POWERBOMB POSITION, BUT AMIR IS CONTINUING TO HIT THERON WITH THOSE PUNCHES! EIGHT! NINE! TEN! THERON HAS HIS EYES ON ONE OF THE CORNERS ACROSS FROM HIM AS HE THROWS AMIR TO IT WITH A TURNBUCKLE POWERBOMB! THERON IS NOT LOOKING TO STOP AS HE CHARGES TOWARDS THE FORMER NEW BREED CHAMPION, HITTING HIM WITH A RUNNING UPPERCUT AS THAT SENDS AMIR STUMBLING FORWARD — BUT THERON SCOOPS AMIR OFF HIS FEET AND CONNECTS WITH A SCOOP SLAM! THERON WITH THE COVER!
OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTT—
Deadprez: The kick out from the so-called ‘Heart of EAW’ as Theron Nikolas manages to apply a headlock to an already down Amir Yusuf! He finds a way to one of his knees as he wrenches in the headlock, applying more pressure onto the hold! But, you can see that Amir is trying to shove the former World Champion away from him! He manages to shove Theron to the vertical set of ropes as that allows for Theron to release the hold, but retaliates with a kick to the ribs of Amir! With Amir bent forward, Theron picks up, hoists him up before dropping him with an atomic drop! He drops to a knee as Theron finds a way back to his feet before following up that atomic drop with a powerful knee strike to the forehead of Amir! This causes the younger Elitist to fall back!
(Theron Nikolas crotches down to look at Amir Yusuf, who is clutching his forehead in pain. He shakes his head, almost like he was expecting more from Amir Yusuf in a way.)
Gavin Kirkland: Theron Nikolas reaches over to pick up Amir Yusuf —
Eve: AMIR YUSUF CATCHES THERON NIKOLAS BY SURPRISE WITH A KICK TO THE FACE! WHILE THAT DOES TAKE THERON’S HEAD BACK, HE’S ABLE TO GET A GOOD HOLD OF AMIR’S LEG BEFORE TWISTING THE LEG TO THE SIDE AND CONNECTING WITH A SHARP ELBOW DROP TO THE LEG! Quickly, Amir holds onto the leg, but it seems like Theron is looking to pull that leg and take it to the bottom rope! It seems like Theron is intertwining Amir’s left leg within the bottom rope before taking a step back and delivering a nasty stomp to it! Theron rolls under the bottom rope and untwists Amir’s leg from the bottom rope! Theron raises Amir’s leg up as he slams the back of the knee against the edge of the apron!
Deadprez: Theron Nikolas rolls himself back inside the ring as he stalks up the former New Breed Champion back to his feet! Amir Yusuf turns around —
Gavin Kirkland: Theron Nikolas delivers a kick to the mid-section of Amir Yusuf before grabbing Amir by his arm and it seems like Theron is going to turn him around, hitting the wrist-lock lariat that he calls ‘Touch of Heroine!’
Eve: BUT, AMIR YUSUF MANAGES TO DUCK THE CLOTHESLINE PORTION OF THE MOVE AS HE RUNS TOWARDS THE HORIZONTAL SET OF ROPES, SPRINGBOARDS OFF OF THEM BEFORE TAKING THERON NIKOLAS DOWN WITH A SPRINGBOARD INVERTED DDT! What a beautiful move as Amir gets to his feet! He follows up that springboard inverted DDT with a dropkick to the face! This knocks the former World Champion back as Amir quickly goes for the cover!
OOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEE!!!!!!
TTTTTT—
Deadprez: Theron Nikolas with a huge kick out as Amir Yusuf begins to apply a headlock, sliding and turning himself into one knee while maintaining hold of the headlock! Meanwhile, you can see by the look on Theron’s face that he’s already thinking about his next move, but not sure how he’s going to get there! Normally, Theron’s a guy that’s calculated and will wait for the perfect time to strike.
Gavin Kirkland: Meanwhile with Amir Yusuf, he’s a bit more spontaneous and won’t let any big risk hold him back. Theron shoves Amir onto the horizontal side of ropes and it seems like he’s trying to roll up ‘The Heart of EAW,’ but Amir is able to roll out of the attempt before a count could be made! He falls to one knee as he’s looking directly at Theron Nikolas! There’s this certain vibe from Theron that doesn’t take Amir quite seriously and Amir is picking up on that and not liking it whatsoever!
(Amir Yusuf and Theron Nikolas meet in the middle of the ring. You can feel the fire and passion burning from Amir Yusuf. You can also feel the desire to get himself out of this situation from Theron.)
Eve: AMIR YUSUF CONNECTS WITH A SLAP TO THE CHEST OF THE FORMER ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION AS THAT TENDS TO TAKE HIM BACK! BUT, THERON RETURNS THE SLAP TO AMIR’S CHEST! AMIR WITH ANOTHER SLAP TO THE CHEST OF THERON! THERON WITH ANOTHER SLAP TO THE CHEST OF AMIR! IT SEEMS LIKE THE TWO OF THEM ARE TRYING TO SEE WHO CAN SLAP THE OTHER THE HARDEST! NOW, WE SEE THERON THROWING A PUNCH AS AMIR IS THERE TO PUNCH HIS INTENSITY WITH EACH OF THOSE STRIKES, BUT IT’S AMIR WHO MANAGES TO PUNCH THERON TO THE POINT THAT HE’S LEANING ON THE HORIZONTAL SET OF ROPES! AMIR GETS THERON BY HIS WRIST, PULLING ON IT, SENDING THE SO-CALLED ‘GHOST’ TO THE OTHER SET OF ROPES!
Deadprez: Amir Yusuf runs towards Theron Nikolas, who manages to catch himself onto those ropes, preventing himself from rebounding him, but Amir connects with a vicious bicycle knee strike to the face of the former World Champion! He uses the assistance of the ropes to help springboard himself and connect with a headscissors takedown to Theron! Theron is able to slide to his knees as he tries to find his way to his feet, but Amir Yusuf charges towards him, following up that with a step-up enzuiguri! Theron stumbles to his side!
Gavin Kirkland: We see that Amir Yusuf does not want to lose sight of Theron Nikolas as he gets Theron by his leg! Amir with a dragon screw leg whip on Theron! But, it seems like Amir isn’t completely done here as he is looking into the eyes of Theron before connecting with a figure four leg-lock! Just as Amir turns behind Theron, Theron connects with a kick to the spine of Amir, but Amir connects with a knee to the back of Theron’s leg before getting up and fully applying the figure four! Now, you can see the look of pain on the face of Theron, who is bitting onto his fist! You know that he’s not looking to throw in the towel and call it a day!
Eve: It’s not like the referee can do anything to make the situation better! Despite that, it seems like Theron Nikolas is going to clutch onto the bottom rope! He manages to get his hand on it, but Amir continues to hold onto the submission hold! He can see that Theron has his hands on the bottom ropes and it seems like Theron is not going underneath the bottom rope and onto ringside! Now, this is kind of interesting? He’s not trying to drop himself at ringside, but he’s underneath the skirt of the apron! The top half of his entire body is hidden within the skirt as Amir is trying to pull Theron away, but nothing seems to be working!
(The camera pans to Theron Nikolas dangling upside down as Amir Yusuf continues to apply the figure four leg-lock, but the upper half of his body is hidden within the skirt of the apron. A moment later, it seems like Theron finds what he is trying to look for, but it’s not revealed to the camera just yet.)
Deadprez: It’s still not clear what Theron was trying to get, but Amir Yusuf is trying to move Theron away from those ropes, but look at what Theron has in his possession!
Gavin Kirkland: I COULDN’T SEE WHAT THERON NIKOLAS HAD IN HIS HANDS AS HE REACHED OVER TO THROW A PUNCH TO THE FOREHEAD OF AMIR YUSUF, BUT WHAT IN THE HELL IS THAT???
Eve: Is that a star in between the fingers of Theron Nikolas?
Deadprez: I believe the term is “shuriken,” which is Japanese for “hidden hand blade,” but it’s also a throwing star or ninja star.
Gavin Kirkland: Whatever it was, it managed to cut the forehead of Amir Yusuf instantly.
(The camera pans to Amir Yusuf and the cut of his forehead, which is beginning to leak blood down from his face.)
Eve: It was enough to release the figure four leg-lock from Theron Nikolas as Theron finds his way up to his feet! He tries to look into the eyes of Amir Yusuf, who proceeds to headbutt Theron in the chin, causing the former World Champion to stumble back! But, Theron retaliates by throwing a giant knee to the face of Amir, causing him to drop to one knee! He picks up Amir before connecting with a ushigoroshi to Amir! Amir still finds a way back to his feet, but Theron sends him over the top rope and straight to the outside! Okay, it seems like things are going to get a bit interesting here as Theron is getting his hand on a bamboo kendo stick with the white handle and he reaches over to one of the tiki fire pits and ignites the kendo stick on fire! AMIR IS SLOWLY GETTING TO HIS FEET AS THERON SWINGS THE KENDO STICK —
Deadprez: AMIR YUSUF DUCKS OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND! THE KENDO STICK COLLIDES WITH THE EDGE OF THE APRON AS THAT SOMEHOW PUTS THE FIRE OUT! AMIR YUSUF TURNS THERON NIKOLAS AROUND BEFORE THROWING A PUNCH TO THE FOREHEAD OF THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION! HE SENDS HIM BACK AGAINST THE BARRICADE AS HE PICKS UP THAT SAME BAMBOO KENDO STICK THAT THERON HAD INTRODUCED INTO THIS MATCH!
Gavin Kirkland: HE SWINGS THE KENDO STICK ONTO THE STOMACH OF THERON NIKOLAS! HE THEN SWINGS THE KENDO STICK ONTO THE SPINE OF THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION! AND AGAIN! BUT, AMIR YUSUF IGNITES THE KENDO STICK ON FIRE ONCE AGAIN BEFORE WAITING FOR THERON TO GET TO HIS FEET AS —
Eve: The flaming kendo sticks onto the stomach of Theron Nikolas! This for him to yelp in pain as Amir continues to bash Theron to his stomach and spine. Amir is targeting each of those areas of his body back-and-forth! Oh god, you can see the streak as well as the welts that are forming on his stomach! But, it seems like Amir is getting things started here as he gets Theron by the back of his head before hitting him headfirst against the edge of the apron, causing Theron to stumble back! But, Amir pulls out from underneath the ring — a trash can lid? :skip:
Deadprez: Theron Nikolas gets hit with a trash can lid to the skull as that faces him to fall back to the barricade! With Theron resting against the barricade, Amir Yusuf places the trash can lid on the edge of the apron! HE PICKS UP THERON FROM THE BARRICADE BEFORE HOISTING HIM UP AND CONNECTING WITH A FLAPJACK WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF THE EDGE OF THE APRON! THERON’S FACE EATS THE TRASH CAN LID! THERON IS DOWN ON HIS BACK AS AMIR IS BRINGING THE FIGHT TO THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION! IT’S A LITTLE AGGRESSIVE AND DIFFERENT FROM WHAT WE’VE SEEN AMIR, BUT THIS COULD BE THE FIRE THAT HE’S BEEN MISSING.
Gavin Kirkland: Amir Yusuf is looking for something else under the ring, but I’m not sure what that could be exactly?
Eve: It seems like he’s has a …umbrella? :skip:
Deadprez: If I can recall, that’s Theron Nikolas’ old umbrella that he would carry around five years ago? If I can recall, Theron used that very weapon in his EAW Championship match against Tiberius Jones. Amir begins to douse the umbrella into the tiki fire pit! THE WHOLE UMBRELLA, BUT THE HANDLE ENGULFS IN FLAMES AS AMIR IS LOOKING IN THE DIRECTION OF THERON NIKOLAS AS HE RAMS THE UMBRELLA TO HIS RIBS, BUT THERON GETS THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND! THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION DROPS TO HIS KNEES AS HE TAKES A SWIPE AT THE FEET OF THE FORMER NEW BREED CHAMPION!
Gavin Kirkland: THERON NIKOLAS GETS HIS HANDS ON THE UMBRELLA BEFORE AMIR YUSUF DOES! NOW, HE PLACES THE TIP OF THE UMBRELLA ONTO THE NECK OF AMIR! AMIR IS TRYING TO WRAP HIS HAND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE UMBRELLA, TRYING TO GET IT OFF HIS NECK, BUT JUST LOOK AT THE STEAM COMING OUT OF AMIR’S HANDS. IT’S ALMOST LIKE THE UMBRELLA IS MAKING HIS HANDS SIZZLE UP! BUT, YOU CAN TELL THAT AMIR IS TRYING TO FIGHT THROUGH THE PAIN THAT HIS HANDS ARE IN AT THE MOMENT, BUT THERON STILL HASN’T GIVEN UP ON THE IDEA OF DRIVING THE UMBRELLA TO THE FRONT OF HIS NECK!
Eve: Somehow, it seems like Theron Nikolas is giving up on the idea and backs away, allowing for Amir Yusuf to check on his hands, bUT IT SEEMS LIKE THERON HAS BETTER IDEAS AS HE PICKS UP AMIR BEFORE BATTERY RAMMING HIM AGAINST THE EDGE OF THE APRON AND THEN, AGAINST THE BARRICADE. THEN, ONCE AGAIN ON THE EDGE OF THE APRON AND AGAINST THE BARRICADE! HE DOES THIS BACK-AND-FORTH A FEW TIMES BEFORE GETTING AMIR BY HIS THROAT AND SLAMMING HIM SPINE FIRST AGAINST THE TOP OF THE APRON! NOW, THERON MEETS HIS OPPONENT ON TOP OF THE APRON AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THERON IS PLANNING TO DO HERE, BUT IT DOESN’T LOOK LIKE IT’S GOING TO BE PRETTY! HE GETS AMIR IN A STRAIGHT JACKET POSITION BEFORE —
Deadprez: Straight-jacket brainbuster on the apron as that sends Amir Yusuf rolling down in the ring! Theron Nikolas sits on the edge of the apron as he’s looking at Amir, who is on his back! THERON SHAKES HIS HEAD, ALMOST LIKE IT’S A PITY THAT AMIR ISN’T SHOWING HIM ANY OF THAT FIRE! HE JUMPS DOWN FROM THE APRON AND GOES TO RETRIEVE AMIR FROM RINGSIDE, BUT AMIR TAKES A SWIPE AT THERON NIKOLAS!
Gavin Kirkland: OH SHIT, THERON NIKOLAS DROPS DOWN TO ONE KNEE AS HE’S HOLDING ON TO THE LEFT EYE. BUT, LOOK AT AMIR YUSUF’S HANDS!
Eve: He has that same shuriken that Theron Nikolas introduced earlier into this match and looks at the left eye of Theron Nikolas.
(The camera pans at the perfect timing to Theron Nikolas taking his hand off his left eye, revealing a gash of blood coming from his eye and pouring down from his face.)
Deadprez: It seems like Theron Nikolas’ tear duct got the sharpness of that shuriken. I don’t think that it ripped the skin open, but you can see where exactly the blood is pouring out. You can also see that particular area of his eye getting red. Honestly, I think that his vision is going to be impaired going forward into this match!
Gavin Kirkland: That’s unfortunate as Amir Yusuf gets that shuriken between his fingers and begins to unload on the former World Champion! Oh god, you can see the gash of blood coming out of his skull! Theron looks a little dazed and confused at the moment as Amir Yusuf manages to get his hand on one of the steel chairs that was provided at ringside for this match and he extends it to the tiki fire pit! Just watch that thing get engulfed as Amir is demanding for Theron to get to his feet! Amir looks like he’s far from ‘The Heart of EAW,’ but can you blame him at the moment?
Eve: He wants to prove that he can stand toe-to-toe with someone like Theron Nikolas! He wants to prove that he can beat someone like Theron, who he hasn’t been able to beat since coming to EAW! Theron is blinded in one eye! Amir has done a good job withstanding on Theron’s left side, where the tear duct was cut! Slowly, you can see Theron getting to his feet as Amir swings the flaming steel chair!
Deadprez: AMIR YUSUF SMASHES THE FLAMING STEEL CHAIR ONTO THE SKULL OF THERON NIKOLAS! OH MY GOD, THERON’S HEAD GOES BACK AS I COULD ALMOST HEAR A THUD! :damn: :damn: :damn:
Gavin Kirkland: AMIR YUSUF GETS THERON NIKOLAS AND ROLLS HIM BACK INSIDE THE RING! HE ROLLS HIMSELF BACK INTO THE RING AS IT SEEMS LIKE AMIR IS QUITE KEEN ON ENDING THIS MATCH RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW! IS THIS GOING TO PUT THERON AWAY?!?!
OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTT—
Eve: THERON NIKOLAS WITH A KICK OUT! HOW IN THE HELL DID THERON KICK OUT!?!??!
Deadprez: Just look at the expression on Amir Yusuf’s face! I think that he was even shocked! He thought that was going to be it right there! NOW, IT SEEMS LIKE AMIR IS GOING TO BE REALLY DETERMINED TO PUT THERON NIKOLAS AWAY WITH THIS MOVE! AMIR IS GOING WITH THE ‘AYC’ — THE ROLLING CUTTER, BUT THERON! THERON IS TRYING TO PUNCH HIMSELF OUT OF THE POSITION!
Gavin Kirkland: AMIR YUSUF WITH A STANDING ELBOW DROP TO THE CHEST OF THERON NIKOLAS!
Amir Yusuf: (off mic) You wanted this, Theron? Did you want this fire from me?
(Amir Yusuf pulls a lighter from his boot and clicks it on.)
Amir Yusuf: (off mic) You’re going to get that and a lot more where that came from. Be careful what you wish for, Theron. You just might get it.
Eve: Wait, Amir still has that star in his possession…oh my god. 😐
Deadprez: Amir Yusuf gets Theron Nikolas’ wrist. That’s the same wrist that has the scar that goes up to the middle of his bicep. Oh my god, he has possession of that star as —
(One of the most horrific screams of pure torture is heard in recent memory.)
Gavin Kirkland: Oh my god, I think that I’m going to be sick.
(At that same wrist, the wound that Theron Nikolas earned at Reasonable Doubt is reopened as blood begins to pour from it and onto the canvas.)
Eve: But, it seems like Amir Yusuf isn’t done here! He turns the lighter on again!
Deadprez: HE’S CLOSING THE WOUND FROM THE WIRE OF THE LIGHTER! IS THIS EVEN SAFE??!?! YOU CAN SEE THAT THERON NIKOLAS IS SCOUTING BACK INTO THE CORNER AS HE’S LOOKING AT THAT WRIST AND I DON’T THINK THAT IT WAS CLOSED UP AS GOOD AS IT SHOULD BE. I THINK THAT THERON MIGHT NEED LEGITIMATE HELP! THE REFEREE IS TRYING TO CHECK ON THERON —
Gavin Kirkland: Theron Nikolas shoves the referee as he finds his own strength to get back to his feet! Amir Yusuf has an intense look on his face as the two men launch at each other, throwing forearms at each other! THE TWO OF THEM ARE TRYING TO MATCH THE INTENSITY OF THE PUNCHES, BUT AMIR IS ABLE TO TARGET THE LEFT EYE OF THERON! HE GETS THERON UP AND CONNECTS WITH A KNEECAP BRAINBUSTER! IS THIS GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO PUT THERON AWAY!?!?!
OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTHHHHHHH—
Eve: NO! THERON NIKOLAS KICKS OUT!!! Amir Yusuf goes to the corner, where he left that barbed wire crutch and it seems like he’s untangling the barbed wire from that crutch! YOU CAN SEE THAT LONG STRAND OF THE BARBED WIRE AND IT SEEMS LIKE HE’S GOING TO BE WRAPPING THE WRIST OF THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION! THE SAME WRIST THAT AMIR REOPENED THE SCARE AND CLOSED IT WITH THE LIGHTER! OH GOD, I THINK THAT THERON HAS BEEN IN THIS POSITION BEFORE AS AMIR CONNECTS WITH A ARM-BREAKER ON THERON! :damn: :damn: :damn:
Deadprez: Is Amir Yusuf going to get Theron Nikolas to submit here! You can see that the barbed wire is piercing against his wrist and up his arm! You can see the amount of pain he is feeling at the moment! He was in a somewhat similar predicament at Reasonable Doubt as then-Answers World Champion, Kassidy Heart had that barbed wire wrapped around Theron, almost like she was more than ready to amputate his arm then! But, is Amir going to get the job done now?
Gavin Kirkland: Something that strikes me is how much Amir Yusuf does his research. All throughout this match, he has shown that he researches his opponents and their history. He was more than willing to look back to Theron Nikolas’ history, going back to Dia Del Diablo in 2017. This man is willing to learn and get better. This match with Theron is going to help him get better. But, Theron clutches onto something with his available hand.
(A huge scream of pain from Amir Yusuf is heard as he lets go of the arm-breaker.)
Eve: THERON NIKOLAS HAS HIS HANDS ON THE LIGHTER AS HE’S ABLE TO BURN ONE OF THE LEGS OF AMIR YUSUF! HE ROLLS ONTO HIS KNEES AS AMIR YUSUF SLOWLY SCOOTS TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION! THESE TWO HAVE BROUGHT EACH OTHER TO HELL AND BACK! THESE TWO HAVE PUSHED EACH OTHER TO THE ABSOLUTE LIMIT FOR THE SAKE OF A VICTORY! WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO PUT THESE TWO ELITISTS DOWN?
Deadprez: Neither man wants to go down. Theron Nikolas uses the assistance of the ropes to help him up. AMIR YUSUF TRIES TO GET HIMSELF UP, BUT HE’S LIMPING ON HIS LEFT LEG! HE CHARGES TOWARDS THERON WITH A CLOTHESLINE, BUT THERON DUCKS THE CLOTHESLINE BEFORE GETTING HIM INTO POSITION — ‘GOD’S REQUIEM!’ NO! AMIR MANAGES TO GET HIMSELF OUT OF THE WAY! ‘AYC!’ NO! THERON WITH A KICK TO THE RIBS OF AMIR BEFORE FOLLOWING THAT WITH A SNAP SAITO SUPLEX! Theron finds himself in a seated position at the moment before trying to muster up some strength to get himself to his feet! He is looking at Amir, who is on his knees, trying to wonder where all his strength is himself?
Gavin Kirkland: Theron Nikolas has Amir Yusuf by the wrists and begins to drive his boot to the head of Amir, but just look at the expression on Amir’s face! It’s almost like he’s completely numb at the moment! This man has been taken to his limit throughout the match! I don’t think that Amir has been pushed this far, but Theron has been able to do that! But, you can still see that Theron is trying to egg Amir on, but he’s slowly finding his way back to his feet! Despite Theron kicking him like he’s kicking a dead body, Amir is finding his way back to his feet as he delivers a giant kick to the ribs of the former World Champion!
Eve: Amir Yusuf hits the headbutt to the skull of Theron Nikolas as that takes him down to one knee! Now, he stops back before nailing Theron with a superkick! This takes him to his back as it seems like Amir is going to pick him up and go for the ‘AYC’ — the rolling cutter connects on Theron!
Deadprez: NO! THERON NIKOLAS IS ABLE TO SPIN HIMSELF OUT OF THE ‘AYC’ BEFORE GETTING AMIR AND CONNECTING WITH A ‘DRAGON RUSH’ — THE SNAPDRAGON SUPLEX! THERON FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH A ‘HEADHUNTER’ — THE BUISAKU KNEE STRIKE TO THE SKULL OF AMIR! IS THIS GOING TO PUT AWAY AMIR?!?!?
OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTHHHHHHH—
Gavin Kirkland: Amir Yusuf with a powerful kick out! Now, it seems like Theron Nikolas has Amir before getting him and himself up to his feet, where he finds himself in position for that swinging reverse STO, but Amir gets himself out of the position before pulling Theron in and connecting with a DDT! Theron goes down! Amir has his sights set on that top rope and he’s trying to keep up the energy to get on top of it! He’s getting himself into position for the ‘0 5 4’ — the imploding 450° splash as Theron is completely laid out!
Eve: Theron Nikolas rolls himself underneath the ring as that may have been the best thing that he could have done! He’s going over to the pile of various weapons that could have been lightened up as he sticks his head inside the pile! Amir jumps down from the turnbuckle to join Theron outside the ring! He delivers a kick to the back of Theron, knocking him down to his knees before getting him by the nape of his neck, but look at this! He has another lighter in his possession as knocks over the flammable items which were used to start the tiki fire pit!
Deadprez: Amir Yusuf throws Theron Nikolas back inside the ring as Theron has his hands on the lighter as he lights up the flame! Amir runs towards Theron with a helluva kick, but Theron Nikolas ducks the kick —
Gavin Kirkland: THERON NIKOLAS BLOWS THE GUST OF FIRE TO THE EYES OF AMIR YUSUF! AMIR CAN’T SEE WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AS THERON GETS HIM IN POSITION BEFORE NAILING HIM WITH ‘GOD’S REQUIEM!’ THERON WITH THE COVER!!!!!
OOOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“The Rumbling” plays once again as it takes for a moment for Theron Nikolas to get off of Amir Yusuf. After all, the two Eltists went through a fucking war with each other where their mental and physical well beings were tested. Theron rolls himself to his back as a series of medical personnel come racing inside the ring to tend to both Theron and Amir.)
Gina Romano: THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH…THERON NIKOLAS!!!!!!!
Eve: WHAT IN THE HELL JUST HAPPENED? THERON NIKOLAS LITERALLY JUST BLEW FIRE LIKE A FREAKING DRAGON TO THE FACE OF AMIR YUSUF! HE DID THAT INTO A ‘GOD’S REQUIEM’ AND GOT THE VICTORY IN THAT WAY! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PROCESS THIS ENTIRE MATCH? LIKE, I SAW THINGS THAT I WON’T BE ABLE TO UNSEE!
Deadprez: Eve, calm down, I am completely blown away about what we saw from these two Elitists who kept pushing each other to the next level until one of them had enough. I mean, can we just talk about the performance that Amir Yusuf poured into the ring tonight. This man was almost like a possessed demon with some of the things that he did to try to take down Theron Nikolas. From reopening his wounds from Reasonable Doubt to closing them with a lighter to using that very star that Theron introduced into this match and cutting his tear duct. Amir wanted nothing more than to walk away with the win, but my god, Theron Nikolas.
Gavin Kirkland: MY GOD EMPEROR, DP! I EXPECTED NOTHING LESS FROM THERON! The heart, the determination, the soul, the desire, and it was confirmed tonight that he is not human. He’s the fucking devil, he’s a workhorse and from that firebreathing technique, he’s a motherfucking dragon.
Eve: I’m just wondering HOW he did that?
Deadprez: I think that he may have found that cornstarch…
(The camera pans to the knocked over bottle of cornstarch in front of them, which is one of the ‘safest’ methods to go with when attempting fire breathing. It’s also one of the safest to eat in case it all went wrong. That, plus the gasoline of the lighter was the combination to achieve the fire breathing.)
Gavin Kirkland: Whatever it was, it worked out in the end. Congrats to Theron Nikolas!
(Theron is shown one more time with his arms up in victory as the camera cuts to the back, where Kyra Phillips is standing by.)
Kyra Phillips: Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to introduce my guest at this time… Showdown General Manager, Hurricane Hawk.
(The arena roars as Hawk is pictured on screen.)
Kyra Phillips: Quite the reaction
Hurricane Hawk: No surprise there, considering these are the greatest fans in the world.
(Another huge pop makes Kyra and Hawk both smile.)
Hurricane Hawk: And that reaction deserves an action… from me as General Manager. And an insight as to what is coming up on the premier brand in EAW.
Kyra Phillips: Big plans?
Hurricane Hawk: The biggest. Let’s start by talking about the Ninth of April edition of Showdown that will come live from the Mexico City Arena in Mexico City. I mean, the fact we are in Mexico should be enough to get the pulse racing, but what if I added that it will be titled the ‘Champions Showcase Super Showdown’, where many of the EAW titles will be on the line. But that’s not all… Elitists from the other brands, Dynasty and Voltage will be invited to join us on the blue brand and take on what I believe to be the very best wrestlers in the world. You think your brand can cut the mustard, then accept our challenge and prove it in our backyard.
Kyra Phillips: Those are big words, and a huge challenge to EAW
Hurricane Hawk: We wrestle, and I’m happy to give our roster the chance to show the wrestling industry just how good we are.
Kyra Phillips: I’m sure there will be many that will step up
Hurricane Hawk: I’m counting on it… but there’s still more Kyra. Because on that night, there will be a lot of special matches, but in a HUGE main event, the Answers World Champion WILL be defended in front of the eyes of the world. TLA, or whoever emerges from the Towering Inferno tonight as champion will put that title on the line once again on one of the biggest Showdowns of all time.
(The crowd roars again, that announcement wetting the palette for the rest of tonight.)
Hurricane Hawk: Our fans deserve the very best, and on the ninth of April, we are going to give them precisely that. Live from Mexico City.
Kyra Phillips: There doesn’t indeed seem to be a lot of momentum right now for the blue brand.
Hurricane Hawk: There is, and that is all down to ALL the Elitists I have on my roster, but especially the younger, newer talent that have taken the culture I am trying to establish here and made it their own. It’s something that I feel is a real accomplishment that we have been able to refresh the roster and give it a new lease of life going…
(Hawk pauses, Kira’s eyes widening, as the camera backs out to reveal Lucas Knight, Pandora Paisley and Jonny Airhart, dressed in fighting gear, rather than the wrestling gear we are used to seeing them in. They look ready to make a statement, but Hawk doesn’t show he is intimidated, though Kira is pushed a little to background, Paisley noticing and chuckling.)
Lucas Knight: Culture mate? You think that what we are seeing each week is a show of culture? All we hear from you is that Showdown is the brand on which ‘we wrestle’ and yet each week you show us that the truth is that it is the exact opposite. Look at what we have in store tonight, do you truly believe that to be ‘wrestling’. No, it’s barbaric… and this isn’t the exception, it happens to be the rule.
Hurricane Hawk: I have to disagree
Lucas Knight: And that is your right mate, we all have our opinions, it’s what keeps things interesting. And unlike many on this roster, I am more than willing to present evidence if you would allow me
Hurricane Hawk: The floor is yours.
Lucas Knight: So, kind. Take Pandora here for instance, one of the brightest lights on Showdown, and yet how was she treated? Not with a means to wrestle, oh no, instead she could have had her career cut short by the Trip to Purgatory match. Was that wrestling? Of course, it wasn’t, and yet it happened. Thankfully Pandora here was tough enough to endure, but that’s in spite of your culture, not because of it.
Hurricane Hawk: It seems like you have misunderstood
Lucas Knight: I haven’t, I understand completely. I understand that there is a double standard here in the EAW and YOU are at the head of it. For those that are fresh and new, the culture works, because they know better. But Pandora and Jonny here, they know better, where your homegrown talent is blissfully unaware. We are not the enemies of the state that has been referred to, we are not even your enemy Hawk. We, just like you, want what is best for Showdown. We love the EAW; we stand right behind the blue brand… what we don’t stand for is you supporting the Voltage trash that comes in here trying to help someone who can’t help themselves. That, we see as a problem, a problem that you are aware we are more than able to resolve if we need to.
(Hawk is a little confused, taken aback by comments it seems he wasn’t expecting.)
Hurricane Hawk: Look Lucas, I understand your veteran status, and I know full well what you have achieved during your career, It was one of the reasons I brought you to Showdown, so that you could share you experience with the younger talent. But the things you have accomplished, you did so outside these walls. At the end of the day, the champions you have won, they mean nothing here, because HERE is where the very best in the business are….
(Pandora butts in, Hawk not appreciating the interruption.)
Pandora Paisley: And that’s where you fail, because you don’t understand that there is life beyond EAW, and what Lucas has achieved, DOES mean something, to us. He’s forgotten more than you know about this industry, and you’d be well advised to listen to him, you might learn a thing or two about talent. Who did Lucas seek out when he arrived? Not Adam Lucas, or Amir Yusef. No, he came to us, because HE knows that I am the blue chipper on this roster, and I’m the one you should be building the brand around. Same with Jonny here…
Jonny Airhart: Too right
Pandora Paisley: Have you forgotten that you traded the Empress of Elite for him? You saw something in him, and now he’s cast aside?
Jonny Airhart: Not gonna happen
(Hawk holds up his hands, not sure how he got into this altercation, and trying to back out of it.)
Hurricane Hawk: I’m not sure why there is such hostility…
Lucas Knight: And like I said, there is no hostility, just a matter of fact.
Hurricane Hawk: Well, you seem to be trying to prove a point
Lucas Knight: That we are, but purely for the benefit of us all. I don’t want you to fear us Hawk, so I will leave you with this to ponder. Eve called us the Rogues Gallery… an apparent common misconception, but before all is said and done, you’ll all be thanking us, for being the ones that save the business from the gimmick trash that currently pollutes it.
(Lucas puts a hand on Hawk’s shoulder, Hawk glancing at it nervously before looking back at Lucas.)
Lucas Knight: Don’t worry, we got you mate.
(Pandora smiles at Hawk, Jonny doing the same before they follow Lucas down the corridor, leaving Hawk confused as the scene cuts to ringside for the Main Event Graphic of Night One.)

Gina Romano: The following contest is the FIRE & STEEL MATCH… IT IS FOR THE EAW HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP WITH AN ONE HOUR LIMIT!!
( The crowd roars while a buzzer begins to sound. A unique chain-linked structure hanging from the top of the Alamodome illuminates with red lighting. It slowly begins to descend, but stops above the squared circle. San Antonio continues to chant “WE WRESTLE” before the anticipation score goes silent. )
( “Praise The Lord” by Bandokay begins to reverberate through the Alamodome. The crowd’s excitement soon turns upside down as they do not hold back on displaying their discontent towards Charlie Marr. Marr jerks the curtain, and slowly approaches the entranceway with his signature smirk planted all over his face. He stands at the beginning of the ramp and spreads his arms. He is dressed in street gear as he purposefully walks down towards the squared slowly to savor the moment. )
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST! From Tower Hamlets, United Kingdom, weighing in at 240 pounds… HE IS “THE MAN OF ALWAYS,” CHARLIE… MARRRR!!
Gavin Kirkland: IT IS TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT!! LIMOMMY VS THE GARDEN GNOME!
Deadprez: What we have recently seen from Charlie Marr has been a reanimated ferocity. After coming up short several times, Charlie Marr has been sick of being looked at as a nonfactor. He is sick of being pushed to the sidelines while others surpass. He is exhausted from being an undesired Elitist. Will tonight be the night that we see the re-emergence of Charlie Marr? We have discovered that the ruthlessness that made him prosperous in the past is back. Limmy Monaghan has been on the receiving end of that ruthlessness and that will be something to watch. Marr can have more consolation knowing that there will be nowhere to go. Monaghan will not have the choice to use weapons, or get out of the squared circle. They will be locked in together with nowhere to go. Nowhere to hide from Charlie Marr!
Eve: We have been told that flames will be shooting up from the top of the cage. In addition, the chain-linked wall will be scolding hot. This will ensure that both Charlie Marr and Limmy Monaghan keep their fights smack dab in the centre of that ring. It isn’t advised to climb onto the cage walls unless they want to burn themselves. While this is orthodox for a hardcore championship match, this is the perfect opportunity to see what both competitors can accomplish when they are severely limited. We get to see how both of these individuals can adapt to this situation, and Charlie Marr looks more than happy seeing that Limmy Monaghan will always be in his line of sight at all times.
( While Charlie Marr looks up and admires the structure, “King’s Dead” by Kendrick Lamar blasts through the speakers. It prompts San Antonio to respond with an ear-deafening pop. Limmy Monaghan steps out to the stage with his head down in a grey Italian Renaissance patterned outfit. . Monaghan shows the EAW Hardcore Championshiop wrapped around his waist and slowly looks up to even a louder pop. He has a proud smile on his face as red and blue fireworks illuminate the sky. )
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT! Hailing from Beverly Hills, California, weighing in at 224 pounds… HE IS THE EAW HARDCORE CHAMPION… “THE MONARCH,” LIMMMMMMYYYYYYYY!!! MONNNNNNAGGGGGHHANNNNNN!!
Gavin Kirkland: I have delved through tons of dirt sheets and all of them have claimed that this may be the biggest threat to the reign of Limmy Monaghan. I SAY NOT! The Monarch has been dominant throughout his entire reign and what he will do tonight will be no different to what he did to prior defenses. Charlie Marr says that he has changed, we may have seen him be more volatile, but he is still the same man that has done absolutely nothing but twiddle his fingers in catering for years. Limmy Monaghan has his work cut out for him, and people think it goes in the favour of Marr that they are both locked in a cage? Monaghan is a ferocious beast when his back is against the wall. Trust me, I would know. Monaghan is going to prove why he is the face of the EAW Hardcore Division forever and ever.
Deadprez: Did Walter Bivens pay you to say that? Charlie Marr has made it known that he doesn’t believe that Limmy Monaghan is properly upholding the prestige of that championship. He claims that it has been too far long that he has sit idly by and seen Monaghan besmirch the name of the EAW Hardcore Championship. Marr doesn’t believe that Monaghan doesn’t fit the script and has every intention in the world to send Monaghan packing to the lower card where he says he will always belong. Monaghan has had a great championship reign thus far, but this is the point in his reign where he needs to prove something. Does he epitomise hardcore? Does he possess that ferocity? Has he maintained the cold-blooded mentality of his? Charlie Marr believes he doesn’t, but it is up for the champion to prove the challenger wrong.
( Limmy Monaghan calmly walks up the steps and enters through the ropes. The referee immediately has to push Charlie Marr back into a corner, as Monaghan steps up and raises the EAW Hardcore Championship in his face. Marr calms down and goes to throw insults at Monaghan. Monaghan continues to show off his championship right in the face before they both look up to see the chain-linked structure descend accompanied by a buzzer. )
Eve: You don’t even have to be present to feel the tensions rising between these two as the chain-linked structure is brought down to the ring. Marr is literally tapping his foot, smiling as he can’t wait to lay his hands onto the reigning champion. Limmy Monaghan seems to have kept calm and collected during his entrance, showing off his confidence as he shoved his championship right in the face of the vicious challenger. These two have been waiting all the way since King Of Elite to settle it once and for all, and that is what they are about to do.
( The top of the cage walls begin to ignite with more violent flames as it is positioned around the ring. The referee continues to be the middleman to prevent any post-match shenanigans as both competitors are impatiently getting into position. Stagehands reinforce the structure from the outside before the referee signals for the bell.
( DING! DING! DING )
Deadprez: THE MAIN EVENT IS UNDERWAY AS MONAGHAN AND MARR ARE WASTING NO TIME!! NO LOVE LOST BETWEEN THE CHAMPION AND CHALLENGER AS THEY COLLIDE IN THE CENTER OF THE RING EXCHANGING LEFTS AND RIGHTS!!

AND HE BLASTS THE CHAMPION IN THE FOREHEAD WITH A HEADBUTT!! Charlie Marr scops him up! Monaghan escapes down his back one again and wraps his arms around his waist! Monaghan pushes him into the ropes! Marr holds onto the top rope and Monaghan rolls into the center of the ring!!! AND MARR QUICKLY TRIES TO CONNECT WITH A SHOOT KICK TO THE JAW!
Gavin Kirkland: MONAGHAN GRABS HIS FOOT!! Monaghan shakes his finger signaling that he had scouted right in front of Marr’s face! MONAGHAN THROWS HIS FOOT DOWN AND GOES FOR A KICK TO THE FACE!! Marr counters that as well by grabbing it mid-air! He sweeps the other leg and holds him by both of them! THE CHALLENGER IS LOOKING TO CATAPULT THE CHAMPION INTO THE HOT CAGE!! BUT MONAGHAN DESPERATELY HOLDS ONTO THE MIDDLE ROPE!! GREAT RING AWARENESS FROM THE MONARCH AS MARR IS TRYING TO YANK HIM OFF!

MONAGHAN THEN GOES FOR AN ENZIGURI!! BUT MARR CATCHES HIS FOOT, TURNS HIM AROUND AND PULLS HIM OFF THE ROPES WITH A WHEELBARROW HOLD!! AND HE TURNS THE DIRECTION AROUND!! What is Marr thinking here? AND MARR DEPOSITS THE CHAMPION ONTO THE PIPING HOT CAGE WALL WITH A RELEASE WHEELBARROW SUPLEX!! MY GOD!
Eve: YOU CAN SEE THE SMOKE COMING OUT OF LIMMY MONAGHAN AS HIS FLESH BURNS AGAINST THE CAGE!! MONAGHAN TRIES TO CRAWL OUT OF THE SPACE BETWEEN THE ROPES AND WALL, BUT MARR SHOVES HIS FOOT AND KEEPS HIM UP AGAINST THE WALL!! Monaghan is now screaming in pain as he is literally burning his entire back! Marr stops rubbing him into the cage and decides to help him up to his feet. Marr sites Monaghan on the top rope… MARR RUNS THE ROPES AND LOOKS TO PUSH THE CHAMPION INTO THE CAGE ONCE MORE!!! BUT MONAGHAN SPRINGBOARDS OFF THE TOP ROPE AND CONNECTS WITH A JUMPING FOREARM SMASH THAT FLOORS THE CHALLENGER!! MONAGHAN CHANGES THE COMPLEXION OF THIS MATCH AS HE FEELS THE BURN ALL OVER HIS BACK!
Deadprez: Limmy Monaghan looks to take a visit to the top turnbuckle as Charlie Marr gingerly gets up after that picture-perfect forearm smash! MONAGHAN LEAPS OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! AND EXPLODES ONTO THE BACK OF HIS NECK WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK!! Monaghan does not go for the cover as he now applies a chinlock onto the challenger. Marr has a bit of an upper edge knowing that Monaghan’s entire back got a minor burn. Monaghan continues to apply more torque on the chinook before Marr is able to escape with a jawbreaker! Monaghan doesn’t go down as he swings side to side! Marr shoots his kneecap! AND HE GOES FOR A SNAP DDT!
Eve: MONAGHAN COUNTERS THE SNAP DDT BY USING HIS POWER AND LIFTING MARR OFF HIS FEET!! MARR QUICKLY GOES DOWN HIS SHOULDERS AND ROLLS HIM UP WITH A SUNSET FLIP!!

BRILLIANT!
Deadprez: Charlie Marr bringing the technical side of wrestling to this match as he uses his other foot to stomp the back of his head! There is no way that the championship can change hands like this! Monaghan is able to get both of his hands on the bottom rope, but there is no rope break! Marr knows this and continues to hold on tight to the knee bar! Monaghan could still tap out here, it is completely legal! Monaghan is able to get his freed foot and smashes it against his midsection. Marr relinquishes the knee bar and rolls back up to his feet!
Gavin Kirkland: MARR CHARGES TOWARDS MONAGHAN IN THE CORNER!! MONAGHAN STEPS TO THE SIDE AND DRIVES HIM INTO THE CORNER TURNBUCKLES WITH A HIP TOSS!! THE IMPACT SOMEHOW GETS MARR INTO A TREE OF WOE POSITION AS MONAGHAN NOW PULLS HIM UP!! AND CONNECTS WITH AN ROPE-HUNG INVERTED BACKBREAKER FOLLOWED UP BY A ROPE-HUNG ELBOW DROP DRIVER!!!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-

Marr grabs his arms and twists him around! AND HE PICKS HIM UP INTO A FIREMAN’S CARRY!! AND HE RUNS INTO THE CENTER OF THE RING WITH HIM ON HIS SHOULDERS!!

THE HEADMASTER RITUAL IS COUNTERED WITH A GUILLOTINE CHOKE HOLD!! MONAGHAN WAS ABLE TO GRAB HIS HEAD AND APPLY THE GUILLOTINE CHOKE HOLD WHILE MARR WAS AT THE BRINK OF CONNECTING WITH THE SIGNATURE SPINEBUSTER!
Deadprez: WILL LIMMY MONAGHAN RETAIN WITH A SUBMISSION?!? MARR TURNS AND HAS MARR FACING THE CAGE WALL!! UH-OH! MONAGHAN CONTINUES TO TRY AND PUT THE MAN TO SLEEP, BUT MARR STARTS TO LIFT MONAGHAN UP!! Oh no! MARR HOISTS HIM UP AND DUMPS HIM ONTO THE SCORCHING CAGE WALL!! MONAGHAN FEELS THE BURN ONCE AGAIN!
Eve: MARR AIMS TO CONNECT WITH A RUNNING KNEE STRIKE TO THE JAW THROUGH THE ROPES! Monaghan gets out of the way and Marr nearly smashes his knee against the cage! SILENT WHISPER!! THE HOOK THRUST KICK TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD AS MARR FALLS AND ROLLS TO THE CENTER OF THE RING!! MONAGHAN CLIMBS THE TURNBUCKLES AND LOOKS TO GO HIGH-RISK HERE!! MONAGHAN LEAPS OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! MARR ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY AND MONAGHAN SAFELY ROLLS INTO THE CENTER OF THE RING!!
Deadprez: MARR JUMPS UP AND EXPLODES WITH A HIGH-ANGLE DROPKICK TO THE TOP OF THE HEAD!! MARR GOT ALL OF IT WITH THAT DROPKICK AS HE NOW GETS UP TO HIS FEET AND RUNS INTO THE ROPES! LIMMY MONAGHAN GETS UP OFF THE GROUND AND FOLLOWS HIM INTO THE ROPES!! AND HE CLOCKS HIM WITH A BICYCLE KICK INTO THE ROPES! Marr is groggy against the ropes as Monaghan now runs into the opposite direction! MARR FOLLOWS HIM FROM BEHIND!! AND DEMOLISHES HIM AGAINST THE ROPES WITH AN EUROPEAN UPPERCUT!
Gavin Kirkland: NO, NO!, NO! The challenger Irish whips the champion towards the opposite side of the ring. Monaghan rebounds off the ropes and slides through Mare’s legs! MARR TURNS AROUND AND GETS FLOORED WITH A JUMPING HURRICANRANA!! BEAUTIFUL ATHLETICISM FROM THE CHAMPION! Monaghan brings him up to his feet and MARR FROM OUTTA NOWHERE STUNS HIM WITH AN ELBOW TO THE HEAD! I think I saw a tooth flying from his mouth as Marr rebounds off the ropes and AIMS TO DECAPITATE MONAGHAN WITH A RUNNING LARIAT!
Deadprez: MONAGHAN JUMPS TOWARDS HIS WAIST AND MOVES AROUND HIS BODY!! AND HE HOISTS HIM UP AND SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH A GUTWRENCH SUPLEX!! HE MAINTAINS THE GUTWRENCH CLUTCH AND ROLLS UP TO HIS FEET!! AND HE LOOKS TO DROP HIM DOWN WITH A GUTWRENCH POWERBOMB!! A GROUNDED VARIATION OF THE GUTWRENCH MOVE COMBINATION, BUT MARR IS ABLE TO MANEOUVER AROUND AND ROLL HIM DOWN WITH A SUNSET FLIP!! SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!!

Eve: MARR POWERS OUT!! AND MONAGHAN USES THE MOMENTUM OF HIS KICK-OUT BY LIFTING HIM UP RIGHT INTO A SUNSET DRIVER POSITION!! OH MY GOD!! WHAT A TRANSITION!!
Deadprez: BUT NO!! MARR’S LEFT LEG SMASHES AGAINST THE BACK OF HIS HEAD OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! AND MARR GETS OFF HIS BACK!! MONAGHAN GOES FOR SILENT WHISPER!! MARR DUCKS IT!! HE GRABS THE WAIST!! AND SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH A BEAUTIFULLY-EXECUTED SPINEBUSTER!! THE HEADMASTER RITUAL CONNECTS AS MARR HOOKS BOTH LEGS FOR THE WIN!! WE HAVE A NEW CHAMPION HERE!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
T-
Gavin Kirkland: MONAGHAN POPS HIS SHOULDER UP! Charlie Marr is starting to get impatient as he drags Monaghan towards the corner by both legs! AND HE STARTS TO STOMP THE LIVING JESUS OUT OF MONAGHAN!! STOMP AFTER STOMP, AFTER STOMP, AFTER STOMP!! THE CHALLENGER IS NOT HOLDING BACK AS NOW PICKS MONAGHAN UP!! HE IRISH WHIPS HIM TOWARDS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RING!! CHARLIE MARR RUNS FOR A RUNNING KNEE LIFT!! MONAGHAN DODGES IT AND GOES AROUND HIS WAIST!! AND HE CONNECTS WITH A SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX!! BUT MARR IS NOT STAYING DONE AS HE QUICKLY GETS UP TO HIS FEET!
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR SWINGS FOR A CLOTHESLINE!! MONAGHAN GRABS HIS ARMS, FLOATS OVER, AND HOISTS HIM UP INTO A POWERBOMB POSITION!! AND HE THROWS HIM INTO THE SCOLDING HOT WALL OF THE FIRE & STEEL STRUCTURE!! BEAUTIFUL COUNTER BY THE HARDCORE CHAMPION AS IT IS NOW HIS TURN TO MAKE HIM EXPERIENCE THE EXCRUCIATING PAIN!! MARR SCREAMS AS MONAGHAN USES BOTH OF HIS FEET TO SHOVE HIM FURTHER INTO THE PIPING HOT STRUCTURE!! BRILLIANT!!
Eve: Limmy Monaghan stops shoving him into the wall and pulls him up to his feet. Charlie Marr is hung onto the second rope as MONAGHAN CONNECTS WITH A KICK TO THE FACE! He follows it up by planting his chest with a roundhouse kick! FOLLOWED IT BY A JUMPING AX KICK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD THAT DRILLS HIS HEAD INTO THE CANVAS! Monaghan is just taking him apart with these strikes as he now brings him up to his feet! AND HE HOOKS HIM UP BY THE SIDE!! AND HE LOOKS TO GO FOR THAT HIGH-ANGLE URANAGE SLAM!
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR WITH SHOULDERS TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!! BUT MONAGHAN STOPS HIS RESISTANCE BY CONNECTING WITH A STO BACKBREAKER, AND HE PULLS HIM BACK UP INTO POSITION!! AND HE HOISTS HIM UP FOR THE URANAGE ONTO THE NECK!! ASYSTOLE!! WAIT!! MARR COUNTERS IT WITH A WHEELBARROW AND PINS HIS SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!! WE COULD GET AN UPSET VICTORY!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
TH-
Gavin Kirkland: LIMMY MONAGHAN PUSHES MARR OFF OF HIM! Both competitors get up to their feet and MONAGHAN CHARGES AT MARR!! MARR GOES DOWN AND LIFTS MONAGHAN INTO THE AIR! Monaghan lands on the top turnbuckle and Marr tries to sweep the legs! Monaghan stuffs him with a back kick to the jaw, but Marr somehow stumbles into the ropes, making Monaghan lose balance and go crashing into the top turnbuckle! Marr joins him on the top turnbuckle and looks to go for a superplex here!
Deadprez: Monaghan with an elbow to the side of the head! Another elbow! And another! AND ANOTHER ELBOW TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD! Both men are in a precarious position here as they can’t hold onto the scolding hot cage! Monaghan with one final elbow to the face before he hoists the challenger into a fireman’s carry on the top turnbuckle. The champion has something high-risk in mind as he has him up! AND HE LOOKS TO TOSS HIM OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! OH NO!
Eve: BUT MONAGHAN IS UNABLE TO AS MARR JUST STARTS DIGGING HIS FINGERNAILS INTO HIS EYE SOCKETS!! MONAGHAN’S BLIND IS TEMPORARILY OBSTRUCTED AS MARR MOVES TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE, LIFTS HIM UP INTO ONTO HIS SHOULDERS! OH MY GOD!! MONAGHAN IS TRYING TO ESCAPE BY GRABBING ONTO THE CAGE WALL, BUT HE FORGETS AND BURNS IT!! HE GOES TO PUNCHING THE RIBS, BUT MARR IS JUST ABSORBING THE BLOWS! MARR HAS HIS HEAD IN BETWEEN HIS LEGS ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE HERE!
Gavin Kirkland: TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! AVALANCHE TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!!! GOD, NO!! MARR SLOWLY CRAWLS OVER AND GETS THE LATERAL PRESS!! KICK OUT! LIMMY!! PLEASE!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THR-
Gavin Kirkland: GAHAHA!! HE KICKS OUT!
Deadprez: Charlie Marr might have tweaked his knees on his way down from that crazy avalanche tombstone piledriver. The means almost justified the end right there because I wouldn’t be surprised if Limmy Monaghan got a concussion, or even broke his neck there! Monaghan is shaking stiffly right now as a result from that tombstone piledriver as Marr runs and kicks him in the midsection. Marr with a smile on his face. The entire Alamodome is raining down boos on the challenger as Marr rebounds off the ropes! AND HE PUNTS THE CHAMPION ONCE AGAIN IN THE MIDSECTION! Limmy Monaghan is wheezing and gasping for air as Marr now pulls him up!
Eve: THE QUEEN IS DEAD!! CHARLIE MARR WANTS TO FINISH THIS, RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW!! BUT, MONAGHAN TWISTS OUT AND TAKES HIM DOWN!! AND HE PUTS HIM RIGHT INTO THE OVER-THE-ARM CROSSFACE! AFTER LAUGHTER!! AFTER LAUGHTER IS CINCHED IN THE CENTER OF THE RING! THIS IS THE SAME MOVE THAT HE USED TO BEAT SIERRA IN HIS FIRST DEFENSE AT ROAD TO REDEMPTION!! COULD WE SEE THAT HAPPENED TO CHARLIE MARR!!
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR KNOWS THAT ROPE BREAKS DON’T MATTER IN THIS MATCH!! HE IS TRYING TO GO FOR THE EYES ONCE AGAIN, BUT MONAGHAN IS SMARTLY POSITIONING HIS HEAD SO THAT ISN’T A POSSIBILITY HERE! MONAGHAN NOW MOMENTARILY LETS GO OF THE CROSSFACE! AND HE STARTS TO JUST SLAM HIS FACE OVER AND OVER INTO THE CANVAS!! THIS IS THE BRUTALITY THAT LIMMY MONAGHAN HAS BEEN KNOWN OVER!! MONAGHAN IS JUST PLANTING HIS HEAD OVER AND OVER AGAIN BEFORE HE PUTS HIM BACK INTO THE AFTER LAUGHT-
Eve: COUNTERED!! MARR WAS ABLE TO SHIFT TIDES AS HE IS MOUNTED ON TOP OF THE CHAMPION!! AND THE CHALLENGER STARTS EMPLOYING A GROUND-AND-POUND 12-6 ELBOWS ONTO THE HEAD OF LIMMY MONAGHAN!! MONAGHAN IS TRYING TO BLOCK THEM, BUT MARR’S FOREARM SMASHES ARE TOO POWERFUL!! HE GRABS MONAGHAN’S HEAD AND STARTS TO REPEATEDLY HEADBUTT IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! THE CHALLENGER SENDING BACK THE SAME ENERGY AS HE NOW STARTS TO RAIN DOWN PUNCHES ONTO THE FOREHEAD!
Gavin Kirkland: BLOOD IS STARTING TO POUR OUT OF THE CHAMPION’S HEAD AS HE IS DEFENSELESS RECEIVING THESE DEVASTATING HAYMAKERS STRAIGHT TO THE FACE! Charlie Marr smiles at the blood coursing down his face and just brushes his elbow across his head. He gets up to his feet and crouches in the corner. Limmy Monaghan slowly gets up to his feet, trying to wipe the blood out of his eyes as the challenger is stalking him like a predator! Charlie Marr has him in his sights! AND HE RUSHES OUT OF THE CORNER, ROTATES AND LOOKS TO BEHEAD HIM WITH THE CHARING CROSS!
Deadprez: SILENT WHISPER! LIMMY MONAGHAN FLUSHES HIM WITH THE THRUST KICK OUT OF THIN AIR AS CHARLIE MARR IS DOWN ON BOTH KNEES!! THE CHALLENGER IS VULNERABLE HERE AS MONAGHAN NOW CLOCKS HIM IN THE JAW WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK!! BEFORE FLOORING HIM WITH A SECOND SILENT WHISPER SHOT TO THE HEAD! LIMMY MONAGHAN PEPPERS THE CHALLENGER HERE AS HE NOW PULLS HIM UP TO HIS FEET! AND HE THROWS OVER THE ARM!! AND HOISTS HIM UP FOR ASYSTOLE!!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT, HERE IS THE PERSISTENCE OF CHARLIE MARR THAT HAS MADE LIMMY UNABLE TO GET THIS MOVE EARLIER! MARR WITH ELBOWS TO THE HEAD ONCE MORE, BUT LIMMY STUFFS HIM WITH A KNEE STRIKE THE MIDSECTION, FOLLOWED BY A SPINNING HEEL KICK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD! Monaghan drags him into the center of the ring and picks him up for the high-angle Uranage once again! MONAGHAN GOES FOR ASYSTOLE-
Eve: MARR COUNTERS THE URANAGE INTO A DDT!! WHAT A COUNTER!! THE CHALLENGER SPIKES THE CHAMPION AS MARR SLOWLY USES THE ROPES TO GET UP TO HIS FEET!! Charlie Marr is completely up his feet while Limmy Monaghan yet to recover from that devastating counter. Marr rebounds off the ropes and STUNS MONAGHAN WITH A JUMPING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP ONTO HIS BACK WHILE HE WAS ON ALL FOURS! Marr now turns around and climbs to the top turnbuckle! Monaghan holds his back in pain as he gingerly gets up to his feet and turns around!
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR FLIES FOR THE LEAPING EUROPEAN UPPERCUT! DEATH OR GLORRRRYYYYYY!!!
Gavin Kirkland: MURDER TO EXCELLENCE! CHARLIE MARR FALLS RIGHT INTO THE DEVASTATING KNEE STRIKE COURTESY OF THE EAW HARDCORE CHAMPION!!
Eve: MONAGHAN QUICKLY PULLS HIM UP TO HIS FEET!! HE HOOKS HIM BY THE SIDE!! AND DEPOSITS HIM ONTO THE BACK OF HIS NECK WITH THE HIGH-ANGLE URANAGE!! ASYSTOLE FINALLY CONNECTS AS HE HOOKS BOTH LEGS!! MONAGHAN RETAINS! MONAGHAN RETAINS!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR THROWS HIS SHOULDER UP BEFORE THE THREE COUNT! Monaghan quickly gets up to his feet and doesn’t give the kick out any thought! He pulls down his knee pad and signals with the finger gun! HE RUNS THE ROPES WHILE MARR IS SUBCONSCIOUS AGAINST THE SECOND ROPE! AND MONAGHAN LEAPS HIGH UP IN THE AIR!! AND HE SHATTERS THE JAW OF MARR WITH THE MURDER TO EXCELLENCE KNEE STRIKE ON HIS WAY DOWN!!
Eve: Limmy Monaghan grabs Marr and brings him into the center of the ring! AND HE HOISTS HIM UP FROM BEHIND INTO AN ELECTRIC CHAIR POSITION!! AND HE SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH THE DEATH NOTE ONE-HANDED ELECTRIC CHAIR DRIVER!! IT IS ACADEMIC FROM HERE!!
Gavin Kirkland: CHARLIE MARR COUNTERS THE ELECTRIC CHAIR DRIVER WITH A STUNNER!! STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE FROM CHARLIE MARR! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR IS SHOCKED THAT HE WAS ABLE TO TURN DEATH NOTE INTO A SIT-OUT STUNNER AS HE NOW QUICKLY ASCENDS THE TURNBUCKLES! Limmy Monaghan has yet to move after that stunner! MARR IS PERCHED ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! AND HE DESCEND FROM HIGH HEIGHTS AND DRIVES A DOUBLE FOOT STOMP THROUGH THE HEART OF THE CHAMPION!! SIN SALIDA CONNECTS!! SIN SALIDA!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Deadprez: MONAGHAN GETS HIS SHOULDER UP!! Charlie Marr can’t believe it! Marr gets up and immediately gets into the referee’s face! Marr thought that was going to be it! Charlie Marr turns his attention back onto Monaghan and brings him up to his feet by holding his jaw! Marr with a smile on his face as he RELENTLESSLY HAMMERS IT WITH A HUGE OPEN-HAND CHOP!
Charlie Marr: (off-mic) YOU WERE NEVER BUILT FOR THIS! GO BACK TO THE LOWER CARD, WHERE YOU BELONG!!
Gavin Kirkland: THIS IS JUST UTTERLY DISRESPECTFUL!! DOES MARR HAVE ANY DIGNITY FOR HIMSELF WHATSOEVER?!
Deadprez: CHARLIE WITH ANOTHER OPEN-HAND CHOP TO THE FACE!! AS HE CONTINUES TO SQUEEZE HIS JAW AND PRODUCE MORE BLOOD OUT OF HIS HEAD!!
Charlie Marr: (off-mic) IT IS OVER FOR YOU! BUT, HEY! ON YOUR WAY BACK TO OBSCURITY, WHY DON’T YOU SEND MY WISHES TO YOUR GOOD OLE, PAL, MARK!
Eve: MARK!?!? WHAT THE!?!? MARR TURNS MONAGHAN AROUND AND HOOKS BOTH ARMS!! AND HE IS GOING TO FOR THE CREDITS ROLL!! THE FULL NELSON FACEBUSTER THAT MARK MACIAS USED!! HOW IRONIC WOULD THIS BE!!
Deadprez: LIMMY MONAGHAN COUNTERS IT AT THE LAST SECOND AND DRAGS HIM DOWN INTO AFTER LAUGHTER! MARR’S ATTEMPT TO PLAY MIND GAMES WITH THE CHAMPION BACKFIRED AS MONAGHAN HAS THE CROSSFACE APPLIED SMACKDAB IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!! CHARLIE MARR’S CHANCES OF BEING CHAMPION ONCE AGAIN IN THE LAND OF ELITE ARE COMPROMISED!! THEY ARE BEING THREATENED AT THIS POINT AS HE STRUGGLES TO GET OUT OF THE SUBMISSION HOLD!
Eve: Monaghan isn’t electing to repeatedly drive his head into the canvas as he is just focusing on making his reach his pain threshold! What will it take for Monaghan to retain tonight! We both knew that these two competitors were fighting to see who was more resilient and hardcore, and this maneuver will tear every confidence and energy that you thought you had at this point in this match! Charlie Marr is starting to fade! He has his hands up and nearly taps out, but Marr clenches his fist to suck up the pain!
Deadprez: Marr continues to undergo excruciating pain as he starts using his upper body strength to bring himself closer towards the ropes! REMEMBER, THERE IS NO ROPE BREAK! However, at this point, the ropes may be the only chance that the challenger can escape out of the After Laughter! Limmy Monaghan continues to pull back on his head and puts every ounce of energy that is left in his body into this submission hold! Monaghan wants to end this once and for all, and there is nothing more satisfying than seeing someone that you hate with a passion submit to you! It is absolutely satisfying, and Monaghan may be looking to get that satisfaction from this championship match!
Eve: Throughout all of the pain and agony, Charlie Marr musters the strength to inch closer towards the ropes. He is able to get his hand on the bottom rope, and uses it to pull him out of the ring! It doesn’t matter because rope breaks aren’t legal, and Limmy Monaghan continues to apply the After Laughter! Charlie Marr doesn’t know what to do as both individuals are under the top rope! Monaghan now starts to use the second rope beneath them as leverage to add more torque for the After Laughter! This escape method may have backfired on Marr! It would be stupid to grab onto the hot cage! He truly has nowhere to go in this match! Either tap out, or not! Two limited options, and Marr has no idea how to get out of this submission hold! Will he continue to hold it in there, or not?
( As Limmy Monaghan continues to apply the After Laughter crossface under the third rope, he lets go and begins to slam his head into the piping hot cage. )
Gavin Kirkland: THERE IT IS!! HAHAHA!! IT BACKFIRED ONTO HIM!! MONAGHAN IS NOW RELENTLESSLY SMASHING HIS FACE UNPROTECTED INTO THE SCOLDING HOT CHAIN-LINKED STRUCTURE!! OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! MARR IS NOW GETTING EVEN MORE STIFF AND UNCONSCIOUS AS THESE HEAD SMASHES ARE MAKING HIM LOSE LIFE!! MARR TRIES TO USE THE ROPES TO PULL OUT, BUT MONAGHAN REFUSES TO LET HIM OUT OF HIS SIGHT!!
Deadprez: MONAGHAN SMASHES HIS HEAD ONCE MORE INTO THE BURNING CAGE BEFORE BRINGING THEMSELVES OUT OF THE ROPES AND ROLLS BACK INTO THE CENTER OF THE RING INTO THE AFTER LAUGHTER ONCE AGAIN! BUT MARR USES THIS SLIGHT OPENING TO LIFT MONAGHAN UP!! AND CONNECTING WITH A DEADLIFT SAITO SUPLEX!! CHARLIE MARR WITH A LAST DITCH EFFORT HERE AS HE SLOWLY GETS UP TO HIS FEET!!
Eve: Charlie Marr brings Monaghan up to his feet! AND HE HOOKS BOTH ARMS! THE QUEEN IS DEAD!! NO!! MONAGHAN SPINS OUT OF THE HOLD AND CONNECTS WITH SILENT WHISPER!! THE HOOK THRUST KICK ONCE AGAIN AS MONAGHAN NOW COMES FROM BEHIND AND HOISTS HIM UP INTO AN ELECTRIC CHAIR POSITION!
Deadprez: MONAGHAN HAS HIM UP IN THE POSITION!!! AND HE GOES FOR THE DEATH NOTE ONE HANDED ELECTRIC CHAIR DRIVER!
( Charlie Marr reaches into his pockets and grabs a handful of salt. )
Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR WITH A SALT IN THE EYES!! OH MY GOD!! THIS IS HOW HE HELPED IMPACT DEFEAT LIMMY MONAGHAN WEEKS AGO BY GIVING HIM THE SALT POUCH!! MONAGHAN IS SCREAMING IN PAIN AS HE CAN”T SEE!
Gavin Kirkland: THIS IS UNETHICAL!! MARR NOW CRADLES AND PINS BOTH SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!! THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IMPACT BEAT LIMMY!! NO!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Deadprez: NO!!! BOTH COMPETITORS QUICKLY GET UP TO THEIR FEET!
Eve: CHARLIE MARR GOES FOR CHARING CROSS!! THE DISCUS CLOTHESLINE IS INCOMING, LIMMY!!
Deadprez: LIMMY MONAGHAN CAN’T SEE, BUT HE IS ABLE TO INSTINCTIVELY DUCK THE CHARING CROSS ATTEMPT!
Gavin Kirkland: HANGMAN’S GAMBIT TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD FROM OUT OF NOWHERE!! LIMMY MONAGHAN WITH THE SWINGING BACK ELBOW, BUT HE CANNOT GET THE COVER!!
Deadprez: Limmy Monaghan’s vision is still severely impaired by when Marr throws the salt in his eyes! The champion is greatly disadvantaged! If he was able to get the cover in right now, he would be able to say that he walked out of this match still the reigning EAW Hardcore Champion! Monaghan is able to somehow regain some of his vision, but he does not go for the cover!
Eve: Charlie Marr has yet to wake up from that devastating swinging elbow to the back of the head! He remains face down in a supine position while Limmy Monaghan takes a deep breath and thinks about his next move on the chess table. He turns his back towards Marr and begins to climb the turnbuckles. Is he going to do what I thought he was going to do? Limmy Monaghan is perched on the top turnbuckle while Marr is still laid out in the center of the ring! MONAGHAN NOW BEGINS TO TAKE FLIGHT!
Gavin Kirkland: THE PHOENIX SPLASHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Deadprez: CHARLIE ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY!! OH MY GOD!! MONAGHAN MISSES RIGHT OFF THE MARK!! NOBODY IS HOME AS CHARLIE QUICKLY BRINGS HIM UP TO HIS FEET!! HE HOOKS BOTH ARMS!!
Eve: THE QUEEN IS DEAD!! THE DOUBLE UNDERHOOK DDT SPIKES LIMMY MONAGHAN IN THE CENTER OF THE RING AS HE HAS THE BACKPRESS COVER!! NEW CHAMPION!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Deadprez: LIMMY MONAGHAN KICKS OUT!! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!! CHARLIE’S JAW HAS DROPPED TO THE FLOOR AS HE QUICKLY BRINGS MONAGHAN UP TO HIS FEET!! AND HE PUSHES HIM INTO THE ROPES!!
Eve: CHARLIE MARR FINISHES HIM OFF WITH THE CHARING CROSS!
Deadprez: MURDER TO EXCELLENCE!! FOLLOWED BY SILENT WHISPER TO THE JAW!! OH MY GOD!! KNEE STRIKE AND HOOK THRUST KICK COMBINATION AS MONAGHAN NOW BACKS UP AGAINST THE CORNER!! AND HE GOES FOR ANOTHER MURDER TO EXCELLENCE! IT CONNECTS!! KNEE STRIKE TO THE JAW AS MONAGHAN NOW CLIMBS TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLES!!
Eve: MONAGHAN IS PERCHED ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AS HE IS GOING FOR THE PHOENIX SPLASH!! THIS IS THE SAME WAY THAT HE DEFEATED ABEL ATAMI AND ROBERTO DE LA ROSA AT KING ELITE!! AND HE IS GOING TO USE IT TO RETAIN AGAINST LIMMY MONAGHAN!
( Charlie Marr pushes the referee into the ropes. )
Gavin Kirkland: NO!!! THE REFEREE COLLIDES INTO THE CHAMPION!! MONAGHAN GOES FACE-FIRST INTO THE PIPING HOT CAGE, LOSES BALANCE, AND GOES GROIN FIRST ONTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! MONAGHAN DESCENDS ONTO THE CANVAS AS MARR NOW REBOUNDS OFF THE ROPES!!
Deadprez: HE TAKES HIM DOWN WITH CHARING CROSS!! HE TURNS HIM INSIDE OUT!! MARR PULLS HIM UP TO HIS FEET!! AND HE HOOKS BOTH ARMS!! MONAGHAN HAS NOTHING LEFT INSIDE OF HIM!! AND HE DRIVES HIM DOWN WITH A SECOND THE QUEEN IS DEAD!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT THE!!? NO!! MARR ISN’T FINISHED YET!
Deadprez: MARR CLIMBS TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! AND HE LEAPS INTO THE AIR ON THE UNCONSCIOUS MONAGHAN!! AND CONNECTS WITH SIN SALIDA FOR THE SECOND TIME!! MARR JUST TOOK EVERYTHING OUT OF HIS ARSENAL ONTO MONAGHAN AS HE HOOKS BOTH LEGS!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER.. AND NEWWWWW EAW HARDCORE CHAMPION… CHARRRLIEE MARRRR!!
( “Praise The Lord” by Bandokay blasts through the speakers as Charlie Marr slowly rolls off Limmy Monaghan’s body. The Fire & Steel structure begins to be lifted off the squared circle. Ringside medics immediately check on both Limmy Monaghan and Charlie Marr. Monaghan is unconscious from the three consecutive finishers while Charlie Marr pushes the officials away. He demands the referee to get the championship as he kneels in the center of the ring, waiting to be handed the EAW Hardcore Championship. )
Deadprez: For the first time in a long time, Charlie Marr is champion! EAW Unified Tag Team Champion, National Elite Champion, World Champion, and now the new EAW Hardcore Champion. Charlie Marr is once again at the top of the Elite Answers Wrestling pinnacle!
Eve: What a highly-contested bout this was! These two individuals were greatly limited being housed inside of a structure, and they showed that they can adapt. They both brought out the hardcore sides of them, and Charlie Marr was able to outsmart Limmy Monaghan and win his first EAW championship since 2019.
Gavin Kirkland: ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!??! WHY CAN’T LIFE JUST BE PERFECT!
Deadprez: Let us look over the closing moments of this match. Limmy Monaghan was on the verge of hitting the Death Note and killing off Charlie Marr. However, Charlie Marr was one step ahead and threw salt dust into his eyes while in the electric chair. This was a callback to when Marr helped Impact by giving him a salt pouch, to where Impact used the salt in the same exact situation. Monaghan was able to kick out of the cradle, and he had the wherewithal to connect with the most powerful move in his arsenal.
( Charlie Marr is finally handed the EAW Hardcore Championship. He gets up off his knees and slowly raises it above his shoulders to the discontent of the San Antonio crowd. )
Eve: However, that salt not only blinded him, but it caused excruciating pain to the eyes. Limmy Monaghan was unable to get the cover, and he ended up resorting to doubling down on the Hangman’s Gambit by going for the Phoenix Splash. It was the same move that made him retain at King Of Elite, but Marr rolled out of the way and it all went down from there. Charlie Marr challenges Monaghan on whether he is maniacal or not, and Charlie just showed how much more method there is to his madness.
Deadprez: It all came down to who could be the most nasty in this match and Charlie Marr has proven that here is no man more savage and nastier than The Man Of Always! Limmy Monaghan’s great EAW Hardcore Championship Reign comes to an end and it is replaced with a new era! It is the first time Charlie Marr is champion in two years, and one thing that we know for sure, is that Charlie Marr has plans to keep that in his possession and pave a dominant path.
( The final shot of Dia Del Diablo Day One is Charlie Marr standing on the top turnbuckle, holding his newly-won EAW Hardcore Championship in the air. )

(The camera cuts to Gina Romano in the ring, ready to announce our next match, much to the crowd’s excitement.)
Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING IS A DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND MATCH, CONTESTED BY ROGUES GALLERY, AND THE TEAM OF AURORA MONROE, BECCA BLACK, AND MARY S. ATLAS…AND IT IS ONE FALL TO A FINISH!
(The crowd roars as the camera transitions over to the Devil’s Playground set of a parking lot, surrounded by cars, which form a circle around the team of Aurora Monroe, Becca Black, and Mary S. Atlas, all decked out in street gear, awaiting the arrival of their opponents. However, they don’t take long as Lucas Knight, Pandora Paisley, and Jonny Airhart, aka Rogues Gallery arrive in a black Cadillac SUV, completing the circle, and stepping out to show themselves in street gear as well, walking with a purpose to stand face-to-face with the opposite team.)
Eve: Both teams are staring each other down, and you can cut this tension with a knife.
(Lucas is staring down Aurora, Becca stares down Pandora, and Jonny stares down Mary, the teams so locked in, they pay no attention to the circle of fire being ignited, trapping them and the cars in.)
Deadprez: You got that right, Eve, we are certainly in for some carnage.
Gavin Kirkland: Absolute travesty that some of these fine women like Aurora, Mary, Becca, or Pandora could walk out battered, bruised, or worse… burned tonight. But if they need me to, I don’t mind playing Doctor. :shaq:
Eve: I’m sure that won’t be needed, nor wante- OOH! AURORA TAKES THE FIRST SHOT AT KNIGHT, AND WE ARE OFF TO THE RACES, BOTH TEAMS EXCHANGING IN FISTICUFFS! AURORA GRABS THE BACK OF LUCAS’ HEAD, AND REPEATEDLY SLAMS HIM FACE FIRST OFF A CAR HOOD, LOOKING TO GET SOME ANGER OUT ON THE MAN WHO’S RUFFLED QUITE A FEW FEATHERS SINCE HIS ARRIVAL TO EAW!
Deadprez: BUT NOT TO BE OUTDONE IN TERMS OF BRUTALITY, MARY DRIVES JONNY BACK FIRST INTO THE FRONT OF A CAR! AND PANDORA GETS THROWN OVER THE HOOD OF ONE BY BECCA BLACK! With Pandora downed for the time being, Becca goes into one of the car trunks, looking for a weapon of sorts it looks like… and she has jumper cables, placing them around the neck of Pandora, who staggered back to her feet, and using them to choke her!
Gavin Kirkland: If only she’d choke me. :mjcry:
Eve: :francis: Anyways…Aurora reigns down with punches to the school of Lucas Knight, who’s still trying to recover off being slammed on the car hood. BUT FINALLY GETS HIS ARM UP TO BLOCK, CATCHING AURORA WITH A SHOT TO THE STOMACH, STUNNING HER LONG ENOUGH TO BE BOUNCED FACE FIRST OFF THE CAR HOOD NOW! Monroe falls down to all fours, and Lucas begins to stomp her while she’s down!
Deadprez: Meanwhile, Mary gets Jonny up on the car hood for what looks to be a suplex attempt, getting Jonny slightly off the ground before he begins to fight it off, holding his weight down on Atlas, making it hard for her to lift him. AND JONNY SHIFTS THE MOMENTUM, SWITCHING SPOTS WITH MARY, WHO HE SUPLEXES DOWN ONTO THE ROOF OF THE CAR! Mary writhes in pain, favoring that back, but Jonny isn’t completely unscathed either, feeling the effects of that himself.
Eve: PANDORA BACKS BECCA INTO THE FRONT OF CAR, finally freeing herself from being choked by those jumper cables as she rips them out of Black’s hand before tossing them to the ground.
Gavin Kirkland: Thank God, Pandora was starting to turn purple.
Eve: Yeah, and I’m sure she’ll look to exact a bit of revenge now, SENDING BECCA BLACK HEAD FIRST THROUGH THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW OF ONE CAR! Becca crumbles to the pavement, and Pandora makes a cover!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
Deadprez: And a kickout by Becca! Had to expect it wasn’t gonna be that easy to put her away this early. But switching topics from them for a second as we see Lucas Knight delivering punches to the dome of Aurora Monroe, who’s leant up against the front of a car. BUT SHE FIGHTS BACK WITH KNIFE-EDGE CHOPS TO THE CHESTS! Lucas Knight stumbles back for a bit BEFORE CHARGING WITH A FULL HEAD OF STEAM AT AURORA, WHO LIFTS HIM, AND DROPS HIM ON THE HOOD OF A CAR WITH A FLAPJACK!
Gavin Kirkland: YES!
Eve: Aurora now yanks him off, and pops up said hood, placing a prone Lucas Knight on it, AND SLAMMING THE HOOD ON HIS WHOLE UPPER BODY AREA REPEATEDLY! Aurora gets a mischievous look in her eyes, and goes to grab the jumper cables which Becca had earlier. Meanwhile, Lucas Knight slumps down to a seated position, sat up against the bumper holding his head and neck area. What could Aurora possibly have planned?
Deadprez: All I know is that it won’t be good for Lucas, who- oh no, Aurora starts hooking up those jumper cables to his testicles… AND CLAMPS THEM DOWN ON THE CAR BATTERY! TEMPORARILY ELECTROCUTING THE BALLS OF KNIGHT BEFORE HE PULLS THEM OFF, AND WISELY TRIES CREATING SEPERATION FROM AURORA, WHO’S IN HOT PURSUIT!
Eve: But we go back to Jonny Airhart, and Mary S. Atlas, who’s sprawled on the roof of that car. But Airhart rolls off the hood, and grabs the hair of Atlas, tagging her with punches before she slides down to the windshield. And with that, Airhart goes looking for toes in the backseat of a truck, finding a shovel. This doesn’t look good for Mary S. Atlas, who leans up against the front of the car, trying to get her wits about her, but Airhart matches with a purpose, LOOKING TO DO SOME DAMAGE WITH THAT SHOVEL AS HE TAKES A WILD SWING!
Deadprez: BUT MARY NARROWLY GETS OUT THE WAY, CAUSING AIRHART TO ONLY HIT HOOD, AND TRIES FOR ANOTHER SWING, BUT AGAIN, HE HITS ALL HOOD AS MARY AVOIDS THE HIT FOR A SECOND TIME! JONNY TURNS AROUND TO MEET MARY, BUT EATS A ROUNDHOUSE KICK FOR HIS TROUBLES, FORCING HIM TO DROP THE SHOVEL! Forearm smashes connect from Mary, who gets shoved back first into the front of a car!
Eve: Jonny looks for a right hand, but gets an exploder suplex on the car hood instead, landing high on his head and shoulders! Jonny holds the back of his neck, but slips off the hood while Mary picks up the shovel herself, TAKING A WILD SWING, BUT ONLY HITTING OUT THE HEADLIGHT AS JONNY GETS OUT THE WAY! To escape this onslaught of offense, Airhart slips into the driver’s seat, locking himself in. But Jonny forgets Mary still has the shovel, WHICH SHE USES TO CRACK OPEN THE WINDOW!
Deadprez: Jonny didn’t think that one through as Mary slams him face first off the car honker of the steering wheel!
**BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!**
Deadprez: Airhart’s in a world of hurt as Mary sticks her hand through the busted window to unlock the door, so she can pull Jonny out. And while one half of Serotonin isn’t doing so well himself at the moment, Pandora Paisley is doing the opposite, lifting Becca back to her feet, and thinking what else she can do to inflict punishment after almost coming close to scoring a three count earlier.
Eve: PANDORA TRIES TO SLAM BLACK’S HEAD THROUGH A REAR WINDOW OF THE CAR! BUT BECCA GETS HER HANDS UP, STOPPING THAT FROM HAPPENING, AND DELIVERING AN ELBOW TO THE GUT OF PAISLEY! Becca follows that up with a few punches to the face that reel her opponent back, and she opens up the rear car door before going back after Paisley, WHO CATCHES HER WITH A KICK TO THE GUT! And I think Pandora’s gonna try to bring Becca close to that fire, having a handful of hair to drag her over.
Gavin Kirkland: That girl is pretty, and vicious.
Deadprez: BUT BECCA PLANTS HER FEET, STOPPING ANY HOPES OF PAISLEY’S CRUEL PLANS FROM HAPPENING, AND SHE PULLS HER IN BY THE REAR OF HER PANTS FOR A BACK SUPLEX ON THE CAR TRUNK! Pain is etched across the face of Pandora, who lets out a scream of agony before Becca attempts to Irish whip her into that open car door!
Eve: BUT PANDORA REVERSES LAST MINUTE, SENDING “THE THUNDERBOLT” INSTEAD, WHO CRASHES BACK AND SHOULDER FIRST! COMPLETELY KNOCKING THAT CAR DOOR OF ITS HINGES AS BECCA LIES ON IT! Of course, unable to get up. But Paisley makes her way over to take advantage of this, stomping down on Black, and even slamming her down face first on the exterior of that severed car door.
Deadprez: But even then, Pandora has more plans in mind, seating Becca up against a car door, and CONNECTING WITH A SPINNING HEEL KICK! THE HEAD OF BLACK WHIPLASHES OFF THE DAMN DOOR! And she falls onto her side, freeing up Pandora Paisley, who notices Aurora and Knight duking it out on top of a car hood, exchanging lefts and rights! BUT LUCAS SHOWS OFF HIS WILLINGNESS TO BEND THE RULES, OR IN THIS CASE, TAKE ADVANTAGE FOR LACK OF THEREOF! RAKING THE EYES OF MONROE!
Eve: Knight hooks her up for a suplex, BUT MONROE FIGHTS BACK WITH SHOTS TO THE RIB CAGE, AND SUPLEXES KNIGHT OFF THE HOOD ONTO THE NEXT CAR’S WINDSHIELD, PUTTING A MAJOR DENT IN IT BEFORE ROLLING OVER ONTO KNIGHT FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHH-
Deadprez: PANDORA YANKS OFF AURORA OFF THE COVER BEFORE THROWING HER GUT FIRST INTO THE FRONT OF ANOTHER CAR!
(Before pursuing Aurora, Pandora makes sure to check on Lucas’ condition, who gives her a nod that he’s ok, but is clearly sporting a few pretty gnarly cuts on both arms after that fall)
Deadprez: Pandora goes after Aurora, who’s over on the side of the car, catching her breath. BUT SEES PANDORA COMING, AND USES THE DOOR AS A WEAPON, OPENING IT UP TO HIT THE CHEST OF PAISLEY, WHO FALLS ALL FOURS COUGHING!
Eve: Aurora takes advantage, slamming Pandora off the trunk now before opening it up as she lies on her side, clutching at her mouth and nose, which were affected. Monroe approaches, BUT GETS A KICK TO THE KNEE FOR HER TROUBLES, AND THIS BUYS PANDORA ENOUGH TIME TO STAND UP, SO SHE CAN THROW AURORA INTO THE OPEN TRUNK OF THAT CAR BEFORE CLOSING IT!
(Pandora leans forward on the trunk, smiling to herself before…)
Deadprez: OOH! AURORA PUSHED THE TRUNK OPEN, AND IT WENT RIGHT INTO THE FACE OF PANDORA PAISLEY, WHO FALLS BACK TO THE FLOOR OFF IMPACT! Pandora starts to crawl away, but Aurora stops her, grabbing Aurora, and throwing her head first through the passenger seat window!
Gavin Kirkland: :mjcry: Oh no, I’m seeing some blood trickle down the forehead of Paisley. This isn’t good.
Eve: They knew the risks going in this thing, and now are experiencing them first hand as Aurora opens up the driver’s seat door, and closes it with some of the seatbelt strap sticking out. Which she uses to trap the head of Pandora Paisley in to choke her out, and keep her in place while Pandora squirms to get the seat belt from around her head and neck. But Aurora does some digging in the trunk she had popped out of, and grabs a crowbar.
Deadprez: NOWHERE TO GO FOR PAISLEY, WHO GETS HIT IN THE ABDOMEN WITH THAT THING OVER AND OVER AND OVER! AURORA REFUSING TO LET UP! But back to the partners for both of these competitors in Airhart, and Atlas. Jonny has regained control, and elbows the face of Atlas while she’s leaned up against the side of the car hood. Mary pushes Jonny away, BUT HES RIGHT BACK IN WITH A RUNNING FLIPPING NECKBREAKER ONTO THE HOOD!
Eve: Cover is made by Jonny, who sees this could be it!
ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
TH-
Eve: NO! Shoulder up by Mary, but Jonny shoves her off the hood, and onto the floor. But before he looks to hurt Mary anymore, he notices what is happening between Aurora, and Pandora Paisley, rushing over to help! AURORA NOTICES THIS, AND TAKES A SWING AT AIRHART, BUT HE DUCKS UNDERNEATH A SWING WITH THAT CROWBAR, CAUSING AURORA TO BUST OPEN A PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW! ROUNDHOUSE KICK BY AIRHART SENDS MONROE DOWN TO ALL FOURS!
Deadprez: Jonny quickly frees his partner in Pandora now before the duo double hip toss Aurora onto the hood! …And at the top of a van next to the car Aurora is on, Lucas Knight re-enters himself back into the fray, climbing onto the roof! AND DIVES DOWN ONTO MONROE WITH AN ELBOW DROP! LUCAS KNIGHT GOES FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHH-
Eve: AURORA MANAGES TO KICKOUT, BUT FROM BEHIND, PANDORA GETS CRACKED WITH A GUITAR SHOT ACROSS THE BACK BY BECCA! AND BEFORE HE CAN REACT, JONNY GETS A BARBED WIRE BAT TO THE BACK! THE BARBED WIRE STICKING TO HIS SKIN AND SHIRT!
Deadprez: Where’d they even find those?
Eve: If I were to guess, they probably had him hidden around somewhere as Mary S. Atlas rips her bat away from the back of Airhart, who drops to one knee, allowing her to rake the barbed wire part across his forehead, busting him open! Meanwhile, Becca opens up the driver’s side door, and places Pandora in the way of it BEFORE CLOSING IT SHUT ON HER! Pandora falls to the floor, holding her shoulder!
Deadprez: Lucas Knight rises off of Aurora, knowing he’s gonna have to do a lot more than that to walk out of this one victorious, so looks to return the favor from earlier, placing her under the car hood. AND HE SLAMS IT DOWN ONTO THE BACK OF AURORA, AND PRESSES DOWN ON IT WITH ALL HIS WEIGHT TO KEEP HER PINNED UNDER THE HOOD!
Gavin Kirkland: FUCK YOU, LUCAS!
Eve: Knight isn’t done yet, and with Aurora still pinned under the hood grabs a lead pipe, AND HITS DOWN ON THE HOOD REPEATEDLY, PUTTING DENTS IN IT WITH MONROE UNDERNEATH! But focusing more on Becca Black, and Pandora Paisley, the two are brawling on a car roof, AND BECCA LIFTS PANDORA UP ON HER SHOULDERS FOR WHAT I ASSUME WILL BE THE BECCA DRIVER!
Deadprez: But sharp elbows to the jaw connect, allowing Pandora to slip off the shoulders of Black, and stagger her way over to the Cadillac she came in with Rogues Gallery. Pandora opens up the driver’s side door, and attempts to climb in, perhaps to get away from Becca Black, who pulls her out by the ankl-
**SMASH**
Eve: PANDORA WASNT LOOKING TO ESCAPE, SHE WAS LOOKING TO GRAB A BEER BOTTLE OUT THE CUP HOLDER OF THAT CAR, AND USE IT TO SHATTER ACROSS THE FACE OF BECCA, WHICH IS NOW BLEEDING! But in regards to the other half of Serotonin, Mary raises the barbed wire bat overhead, and charges at Jonny, who’s leant against the front of a car, BUT HE NARROWLY AVOIDS THE HIT, AND THE BAT GOES FLYING THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD!
Deadprez: BUT HAVING SLIPPED BEHIND HER, JONNY CONNECTS ON MARY WITH A RIPCORD LARIAT! COVER IS MADE!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THH-
Deadprez: A kickout by Mary, and the rest of Rogues Gallery looking annoyed that wasn’t it for their opponents, but waste no time in continuing to inflict damage. Lucas Knight has cruel intentions on the mind especially as he goes into the trunk of a van to take out… A BARBED WIRE TABLE! Lucas leans it up against the front of a car, and this can’t be good for Aurora Monroe.
Eve: No, it cannot as Lucas tries to suplex her through it! BUT AURORA SWITCHES SPOTS WITH LUCAS, TRYING TO SUPLEX HIM THROUGH IT NOW! LUCAS SLIPS OUT THE BACK AFTER TEMPORARILY BEING LIFTED! AND A GERMAN SUPLEX ATTEMPT FROM LUCAS GETS STUFFED BY AURORA, WHO ELBOWS HER WAY OUT OF IT! KICK TO THE GUT BY MONROE, AND SHE LIFTS KNIGHT UP FOR HALESTORM!
Gavin Kirkland: FUCK! LUCAS SLIPPED OUT THE BACK OF THE LAST RIDE POWERBOMB!
Deadprez: AURORA TURNS AROUND, BUT GETS SPEARED INTO THE TABLE WITH HER BODY STICKING TO THE BARBED WIRE! That could be it, but Lucas rolls onto his back, the fatigue starting to set in. But turning our attention to Pandora Paisley, and Becca Black. I think Pandora just ripped the shirt off of Becca, who’s on all fours.
Gavin Kirkland: YES!
Eve: Relax, there’s still a bra underneath, and Pandora grabs a plank from the back of a truck! AND BREAKS IT OVER THE EXPOSED BACK OF BECCA, REALLY WANTING HER TO FEEL IT! And felt it she did, writhing in the pain on the floor right now!
Deadprez: Jonny tries to stand Mary S. Atlas up, but she only gets to a knee before connecting with a LOW BLOW! Jonny gets lifted up by Mary to connect with the double underhook DDT, or as she calls it, ‘Most Wanted DDT.’ …BUT CATS PAW! THE SUPERKICK FROM PANDORA STOPS THAT FROM HAPPENING, AND MARY STAGGERS BACK AGAINST THE FRONT OF A CAR!
Eve: Pandora helps Jonny back to his feet, and does the same for LK, and the three begin to enclose on Mary, who starts putting the pieces together on what’s happening. FOREARM SMASH ON PANDORA, BUT ITS NO USE AS THE OTHER TWO ATTACK FROM BEHIND, AND THE THREE GANG UP ON HER WITH STOMPS! MARY IS DOING HER BEST TO COVER UP, BUT THOSE ARE CONNECTING FLUSH!
Deadprez: The trio have big plans as they lift Mary up for a TRIPLE POWERBOMB, RELEASING MARY ONTO THE WINDSHIELD! Atlas gets pulled off to the floor by her ankle, and Lucas makes the cover!
ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEE!!
Gavin Kirkland: That’s it! :mjcry:
Eve: YOU MIGHTA SPOKE TOO SOON THERE, GAVIN, AS BECCA BREAKS UP THE COVER JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME! But you can tell she isn’t at 100% percent right now, still feeling the effects of that wooden blank being smashed over her back, having to crawl over to break up the pin.
Deadprez: BUT SEROTONIN AREN’T HAPPY, PUTTING THE BOOTS TO HER AS WELL LIKE THEY DID MARY! And now Becca’s about to pay as they both Irish whip her to the front of a car- BUT BECCA LEAPS UP ON THE HOOD, AND DIVES DOWN WITH A CROSSBODY ON THE CHARGING JONNY AND PANDORA! BUT BEFORE SHE COULD STAND UP TO A VERTICAL BASE, LUCAS KNIGHT CAUGHT BECCA WHILE SHE WAS DOUBLED OVER, AND SPIKED HER WITH A DDT! MODIFIED VERSION OF KNIGHTFALL CONNECTS!
Eve: Knight doesn’t go the pin though, perhaps knowing that won’t be enough, and therefore, goes rummaging through the trunk of that Cadillac, pulling out numerous steel chairs, and throwing them into the circle so they pile up on one another! But once he finishes up with that, Lucas also grabs a steel cricket bat in there. Becca has no idea what’s coming as she’s on wobbly legs right now trying to stand herself up!
Deadprez: BUT KNIGHT CATCHES HER IN THE GUT WITH THAT CRICKET BAT, DOUBLING HER OVER, AND HE STARTS MONARCHY RULES ON THAT PILE OF CHAIRS!
Eve: WHAT THE-
(Lucas unhooks his arms from Becca’s as he gets blinded by headlights shined in his eyes!)
Gavin Kirkland: AURORA! ITS AURORA!
Eve: Yeah, and she steps out the car ready to confront Knight, who had thought much like us that she was gonna stay down off that spear through the table. But no, Aurora is back in, AND BECCA SHOVES THE BLINDED LUCAS INTO HER FOR A BACK BODY DROP ON THE HOOD! BUT THE DAZED BECCA GETS SHOVED INTO HER OWN PARTNER IN A FRESHLY RECOVERED MARY! THE TWO KNOCK HEADS, AND FALL DOWN!
Deadprez: From here, Pandora takes advantage, opening up a car door, and seating Mary in front of its path. No, no, Pandora don’t do this. PANDORA DONT DO THI- OH MY GOD! MARY JUST GOT THAT CAR DOOR KICKED IN HER FACE BY PAISLEY! BUT FROM BEHIND, BECCA BLACK IS NOT HAPPY, CLUBBING THE BACK OF PANDORA WITH BLOWS! AND PANDORA GETS THROWN OVER A CAR HOOD AGAIN, REMINISCENT OF EARLIER!
Eve: But Becca does some digging in the back of a truck, AND PULLS OUT A LADDER! PANDORA FALLS BACK ON THE HOOD OF A CAR AFTER BEING HIT WITH THE TOP CAP OF SAID LADDER, WHICH BECCA SETS UP IN FRONT OF THE CAR!
Deadprez: But before she can leap off, somehow, Pandora Paisley wills herself up on the opposite side of the ladder as well, AND THE TWO START DUKING IT OUT! PANDORA POKES BLACK IN THE EYE, AND GRABS HER BY THE HAIR, GESTURING TO THE DROP SHE’LL TAKE TO THE CONCRETE ONCE SHE PUSHES HER OFF!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh, I can’t watch! Becca is about to go splat!
Eve: NO! BECCA BREAKS FREE WITH A HEADBUTT THAT DAZES PANDORA FOR A CUTTER OFF THE LADDER ONTO THE CAR HOOD! BUT BECCA CAN’T EVEN CAPITALIZE AS SHE LOOKS TO BE OUT ALONG WITH PAISLEY OFF IMPACT!
Deadprez: BUT EVER THE OPPORTUNIST, LUCAS SEEMS TO HAVE FREED HIMSELF FROM AURORA, AND MOVES INTO THE COVER ON BECCA!
ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEE-
Deadprez: AURORA MAKES THE SAVE, PULLING LUCAS OFF THE COVER, AND ATTEMPTING TO IRISH WHIP HIM INTO THE LADDER, BUT LUCAS REVERSES, SENDING MONROE INSTEAD! HOWEVER, SHE DUCKS UNDERNEATH THE SPREADERS, AND ONCE NOTICING THIS, LUCAS CHARGES AT HER, BUT AURORA TIPS THE LADDER OVER, CAUSING THE SIDE TO SMACK HARD INTO LUCAS’ FACE, DROPPING HIM!
Eve: Aurora tries to pick him up as he’s buried underneath that ladder, BUT JONNY AIRHART COMES IN TO ATTEMPT A RIPCORD LARIAT ON AURORA!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT THE QUEEN SEES IT COMING, AND DUCKS UNDERNEATH!
Eve: KEEPING HOLD OF THE ARM TO RIPCORD JONNY HERSELF FOR A FOREARM SMASH, TURNING HIM AROUND LONG ENOUGH FOR HER TO CONNECT WITH A PUMPHANDLE FACE SLAM ON THE PILE OF CHAIRS! THE TEMPEST MIGHT END THIS THING AS SHE SHOOTS THE HALF ON JONNY FOR A LATERAL PRESS!
ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: HERE’S YOUR WINNER…THE TEAM OF AURORA MONROE, BECCA BLACK, AND MARY S. ATLAS!
(“Streets” (Instrumental) by Doja Cat plays, signifying the team of Aurora, Becca, and Mary being victorious on this night, but certainly don’t look like it as Aurora slowly rises off Airhart, sporting cuts on her back, arms, and shoulders due to that barbed wire table.)
Gavin Kirkland: THEY DID IT! YES! THEY DID IT!
Eve: Tonight was nothing short of a war for these two teams, who really went the extra mile in hurting each other tonight.
Deadprez: Yeah, there was no mercy shown, and that just goes to show how heated this rivalry has gotten.
Eve: But- WHAT THE?! THE MATCH IS OVER!
(Aurora falls down to all fours after Lucas runs into her with a running elbow to the back of the head.)
Gavin Kirkland: THIS SORE LOSER SACK OF SHIT!
Deadprez: The match is over to everyone, but Lucas Knight apparently, who doesn’t seem done with Aurora by a long shot, sending her face first into the car grille of their Cadillac, and brings her onto the roof.
Eve: CMON, DAMMIT! YOU LOST THE MATCH FAIR AND SQUARE!
Deadprez: MONARCHY RULES! THE VERTEBREAKER CONNECTS ON THE ROOF OF THAT CADILLAC SUV, LEAVING A MAJOR DENT AT THE TOP! Someone has to check on Aurora here!
Eve: And look at the smug, sadistic smile on the face of Lucas Knight, a class act he is.
(Lucas help the rest of Rogue Gallery up as the trio stand tall, looking like the winners, despite not actually being them on this night, and walk off as the fire gets put out. But in the carnage, Aurora tries to stand herself up, but rolls off the roof instead to a prone position on the floor, coughing after that attack from Lucas. Meanwhile, Becca rolls off the car hood, and crawls over to Mary, looking to check on her status, which isn’t good as she’s lying next to a small puddle of blood next to her face area after the door incident, and Becca calls for doctors WHEN Pandora slowly walks over and cuts her off, squatting down and holding the head of Mary S. Atlas up taunting her.)
Eve: THIS IS NOT NECESSARY! THET MATCH IS OVER!
(Becca looks up at Pandora who smiles, dropping the face of Mary as it hits with a thump, standing up as the Rogues Gallery all three look at Becca who quickly covers Mary to protect her, before Lucas nods. Pandora backs up before punting Becca in the face with her extremely powerful legs, knocking her out instantly as she slumps over Mary…)
Pandora Paisley: Such heroic nonsense.
(She cracks her cheshire smile, as Lucas nods in approval, stepping over the fallen MaryBecca…)
Deadprez: COME ON! WE NEED HELP OUT THERE NOW!
(The Rogues Gallery are all beaten and bruised, they lost the match but made a statement but taking the low road that MaryBecca and Aurora Monroe will not soon forget, as the camera fades elsewhere to the graphic of the next match after this horrific event.)
https://i.ibb.co/yQdLSRy/RONANVSKASS.png
( OPEN TO: An afternoon setting at Elmendorf Lake in San Antonio, Texas. The popular attraction has been walled off from a majority of the general public, left exclusive to EAW Universe members who have paid to be able to spectate the upcoming match. Many fans are gathered across the lake banks in multiple sections — predominately at the shoreside banks lined along the lake, and one of the bridges overseeing it. )
( The lake is broken down into four regions:
REGION I – SHORESIDE: There is a minitron set and an entrance ramp leading to a floating dock on the easternmost shore of Elmendorf Lake. Two speed boats are individually tethered to the edge of the dock by heavy rope and metal cleats. There are scattered bits of equipment intended for a typical outing at the lake scattered across the floating dock. The dock itself has four large columns in total; one for each corner. )
( REGION II – STARTING POINT: The body of water on the easternmost point of Elmendorf Lake. The objective is to take the westbound boat ride through the bridge region, and ultimately to the main region, where the match officially begins in the ring. )
( BRIDGE REGION: The walkway overpass portion of the lake separating the starting point from the main region. This region contains large, protruding rocks sticking up from the water due to the build up of underwater sea stacks. The lake becomes more and more shallow the further you stray into the parallel walls at the banks of the lake, beneath each side of the overhead bridge. )
( MAIN REGION: The largest portion of the lake containing a Floating Barge that has a fully set up ring on its platform. Barrels of oil line the sides of the barge as well as flame propulsors sticking out from the sides to help ignite the Lake of Fire. The “ringside area” contains a concrete floor with roughly the same surface area of the usual ringside environment. There are metal guardrails built at a similar height of ringside barricades, and two wide openings on the east and west sides of the guardrails leading directly into the Lake of Fire. )
( Standing at Shoreside is Maria Del Ray from Fight Grid, set to announce the match: )
Maria Del Ray: The following is a LAKE OF FIRE match scheduled for ONE FALL! In order for this match to officially begin, both competitors must reach the barge in the Main Region of the lake and occupy the ring at the same time! Once the bell sounds, the lake surrounding the ring will be set into flames, and the only way to win this match is by sending your opponent INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE!!!
( “Monster” by Kanye West plays and Kassidy Heart walks out through the minitron curtain dressed to compete. She dons a silver and black long-tights variation of her in-ring attire, with black combat boots, wrist tape around her hands and her hair worn in a ponytail. )
Maria Del Ray: Introducing first… making her way to the pier from SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, weighing in at 135 POOOOUNDS!!! “THE MAULER”, KASSIDDDYYYYYY HEART!!!
Deadprez: It’s Mauler time! This time from the Elmendorf Lake in San Antonio here in the host city of Dia Del Diablo. And you don’t see not one bit of fear on that woman’s face!
Gavin Kirkland: AHHH Look out everyone it’s the Loch Ness Monster! Oh wait no it’s just Kassidy again. But in all seriousness, I’m not sure which creature would be a greater threat to human life, her or Big Nessie! Also are we certain this Lake Of Fire isn’t a bit of a one sided affair? After all, if you throw Kassidy into the pits of hell I’m pretty sure she’d only come flying out on a bloody dragon or something, like she’s Mother Khaleesi or something.
Eve: I thought you were going to be “serious” Gavin but in any case; The Mauler is still just as much spoiling for a fight as she was last week on Showdown after Ronan Malosi got one over on her with a cheap shot. She has had all week to stew over what she’s going to do when she can get her hands on Ronan, and in a mind as devious and meticulous as that there’s not much time to experience fear–
Gavin Kirkland: AND WHAT KIND OF NORMAL PERSON WALKS INTO A DEATH TRAP HELLHOLE LIKE THIS NOT BEING AFRAID?! LOOK AT HOW LOW THIS COMPANY HAS STOOPED! THEY ARE DUMPING BARRELS OF OIL INTO A LAKE AT THE HEIGHT OF AN INTERNATIONAL ENERGY CRISIS JUST TO APPEASE THE SICK FANTASIES OF THIS VAMPIRE BARBIE DOLL! THIS IS MADNESS! IF I WERE RONAN MALOSI I WOULDN’T EVEN SHOW UP! TO HELL WITH THAT! YOU COULDN’T PAY ME ENOUGH TO WALK INTO SOMETHING LIKE THIS AGAINST SOMEONE LIKE THAT!
( Kassidy is pacing around on the floating dock. Her music dies down, and rather than get on one of the speedboats to get a head start to the ring, she anticipates Ronan’s arrival. That is when “Mo Money” by Ben McLusky overtakes the sound system. )
Maria Del Ray: And her opponent! From PALM SPRINGS, FLORIDA weighing in at 285 POOOUNDS!!! RONAAAAAANN MAAAALOSIIIII!!!!
( Ronan’s minitron graphics and entrance music continue from the stage set up at the lake banks, but Ronan has yet to walk through the curtain. Kassidy is at the floating dock warming up, quelling her angst as much as she can despite Ronan’s lack of appearance. )
Eve: Um, what I was meaning to say was how it’s a good thing Gavin that you AREN’T Ronan Malosi, but I may need to eat those words. Where the heck is he?
( An inordinate amount of time has passed and Kassidy’s patience wears thin. )
Gavin Kirkland: SERVES HER RIGHT! It would actually be perfect karma for Kassidy Heart to come out all this way and walk to some musty Texas lake just to be no-showed outright by her opponent! Little Miss Marquee-only over here is going to end up with some serious crow on her face if Ronan actually ended up blowing her off this entire time! What an epic troll!
Eve: It’d be hypocritical, that’s what it’d be. To complain all this time about demanding a big match and whine about how he was screwed out of his major opportunities, just to pass up the opportunity at competing with a former World Champion, would be a straight up joke!
( Kassidy grabs one of the maintenance employees by the collar of their shirt and gets in their face, demanding to know where Ronan is. The employee swears they have no idea. )
Kassidy Heart: Don’t you fucking lie to me. One of you knows where he is. Tell me where that coward motherfucker is hiding so that I can drag him across that lake by his entrails, NOW! TELL ME!
( The employee whimpers in her grasp, begging her to let go of him. )
Deadprez: HEY WHAT THE
( A fisherman gets up from sitting at the edge of the floating dock, turns around, and hits Kassidy from behind using a fishing rod. )
Eve: SOME FISHERMAN JUST HIT KASSIDY FROM BEHIND USING A FISHING POLE WITH FULL FORCE! AND NOW THEY SLAM KASSIDY HEAD FIRST INTO THE STAIRWAY RAILING CONNECTING THE FLOATING DOCK TO THE SHORE! WHO IN THE.. WAIT A SECOND, IT’S RONAN!
( Ronan is dressed in jeans and a plaid shirt with a fly fishing vest and a large bucket hat. Ronan pulls the hat off and shows a confident look on his face after having blindsided Kassidy again. )
Ronan Malosi: You had a lotta shit to say about me last week! Where’s that same energy huh Kass? Where is that same energy! I DON’T HEAR YOU!
Gavin Kirkland: BRILLIANT! PULLING OFF THE ART OF DISGUISE! RONAN WAS SITTING THERE AT THE DOCK OF THE BAY SO PEACEFULLY IT WOULD MAKE OTIS REDDING PROUD, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH TO BLEND IN AND FOOL THE MAULER!
Deadprez: It’s a good start but it ain’t nearly enough to finish her! Kassidy almost fell down the short flight of steps descending from the floating dock down to the lakeshore, but she’s coming back up and this forces Ronan to fire off some heavy shots to the face to stop her while he still can! Ronan takes Kassidy over by the nape of her neck and slams her face first into one of the wooden pillars of the floating dock!
Eve: No Kass stops them from getting any closer by placing a boot between herself and that pillar! Kass is prying apart the grip, turns around and FIRES OFF WITH A SERIES OF PUNCHES OF HER OWN! WITH NO ARENA AMBIANCE AND CHATTER OF THE FANS YOU CAN TRULY HEAR HOW STRONG THOSE PUNCHES FROM THE MAULER ARE, YOU CAN VISCERALLY FEEL THE HATRED POURING IN AS THOSE STRIKES KEEP POURING IN!
Gavin Kirkland: RONAN cuts her off with a knee to the midsection! RIPS her face first to the floor and hits an ELBOW to the head as it is wedged against the floor of the floating dock! And a STOMP to Kassidy’s head in that same position follows suit! Kass rolls away holding her face, fighting to scramble up and there is a running boot to the jaw by Ronan to bring her back down! That sends her rolling towards the edge of the floating dock, almost into the water!
Deadprez: Ronan walks elsewhere on the pier and is dragging out a fishing tackle box that he had with him earlier as a part of his disguise. Ronan picks it up which in and of itself requires ALL of his strength from what it looks like, he might have over 200 pounds worth of items in there!!! Ronan is gritting his teeth watching Kassidy recover at the edge of the floating dock, but he has every intention of decapitating her the moment that he can!!! KASS TURNS AROUND!!!
Eve: KASS HAS A CANOE PADDLE IN HAND THAT SHE PICKED UP FROM THE SIDE OF THE FLOATING DOCK!
Gavin Kirkland: RONAN CHUCKS THAT 200 POUND TACKLE BOX AS HARD AS HE CAN, TAKING KASSIDY’S HEAD CLEAN OFF OF HER SHOULDERS!!!
Eve: SHE DUCKS UNDERNEATH IT! THAT TACKLE BOX GOES FLYING INTO ONE OF THE SPEEDBOATS, AND KASS SWINGS THE CANOE PADDLE INTO RONAN’S KNEE CAPS TO CHOP HIM DOWN TO SIZE!
Eve: Ronan half-crawls away but is still holding on to his knee which took a thwacking. He is trying his best to separate himself. Kassidy comes right up from him from behind AND PLACES THE CENTER OF THE CANOE PADDLE INTO RONAN’S ADAM’S APPLE! PADDLE-ASSISTED FULL NELSON GUILLOTINE!!! THE HANDLE OF THE PADDLE IS JUST BEING YANKED INTO THE WINDPIPE OF MALOSI WITH UNBRIDLED FORCE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Ronan backpedals his way into one of the corner columns of the floating dock to squash Kassidy and free himself! Desperation move, but surely effective! Ronan hobbles over to a set of camping chairs while coughing profusely, he picks one of them up to chuck them at Kassidy! But Kassidy bats it away with her canoe paddle! Ronan throws another camping chair at Kass, and she bats that one away as well! Ronan limps over with a third, heavier collapsible chair to swing it FULL FORCE OVER HER HEAD!
Deadprez: A precise kick by Kass stops Ronan in his tracks! Another shoot kick gets Ronan hobbling and forces him to drop the chair! Rolling forearm from Ronan is stopped by a bicycle knee from Kass! He clutches his forearm in pain, and is lit up with a series of shoot kicks! Ronan snatches the weaponless wrist for a short-arm lariat but Kass stops him with a gut kick and plants a LOUD BICYCLE KICK TO HIS HEAD AS HE’S BENT OVER! Ronan hits the deck and pops back up, going for a wild swing — KASS SWINGS THE PADDLE INTO RONAN’S MIDSECTION!!! HE’S DOUBLED OVER — POWWW!!! KASSIDY NAILS HIM WITH A ‘LONG DRIVE’ GOLF SWING RIGHT INTO THE BRIDGE OF HIS NOSE!!! RONAN DROPS ON HIS ASS, JUST COMPLETELY BESIDE HIMSELF!!!!!!
Eve: KASSIDY TWIRLS THE WOODEN PADDLE WITH A HAND, WINDING UP, AND SHE BRINGS IT DOWN MERCILESSLY OVER THE TOP OF RONAN’S HEAD!!! OHHH MAN! THAT LITERALLY SPLIT THE WEAPON IN HALF, AND I’M SURPRISED IT DIDN’T SPLIT RONAN’S HEAD IN HALF EITHER!
Deadprez: Ronan wanted to get the drop on Kassidy the same way he did against Lexi last week on Showdown, but you never wanna use the same trick twice against The Mauler, Ronan is learning that the hard way! Kassidy hovers over Ronan pouring down with a barrage of strikes while he tries to defend himself. Kass rips apart Ronan’s wrists to expose his head and TEES OFF WITH THEM WRIST-CLUTCH KNEE STRIKES TO THE EXPOSED FACE!!!!!! :Damn:
Kassidy Heart: The nightmare hasn’t even begun worthless trash. It hasn’t even started.
( Kassidy delivers a face contorting slap with all of her strength. )
Kassidy Heart: When I’m finished with you, nobody will miss you, do you hear me? When I’m through with you you’ll be gone and the world will move on like you never even existed. That is your portion on earth you stupid fuck.
Eve: There’s a running boot by Kass to the back of the head, sending Ronan from a seated base and down to his side! She follows up with a jumping fist drop to club the side of his face now! Evil intentions from The Mauler who watches Ronan roll over towards the fishing rod and try to grab it. KASS HITS A STOMP TO THE HAND OF RONAN CRUSHING IT AGAINST THE HANDLE OF THE ROD!!! YOU CAN HEAR THE CRUNCHING SOUND FROM RONAN’S WRIST THAT MAY HAVE JUST BEEN SNAPPED BY THAT STOMP!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Kassidy takes a hold of the fishing rod that was used against her earlier. She disables the anti-reverse reel switch on the rod which automatically lowers the fishing hook at the end of the big game twine. Kassidy unwinds the lever pretty quickly, her Daddygawd must have taken her on some fishing trips to learn how to do that because I can’t imagine that she learned how to maneuver a man’s tools on her own!
Eve: Of course not, because a woman could “never” learn how to fish on their own. :rolling_eyes: Isn’t that right, Gavin?

Gavin Kirkland: Okay don’t blow a gasket! It’s not cause she’s a woman, Kassidy is the kind of lunatic to go jump in a lake and catch fish with her bare hands! Have you seen her?! Anywho, Kassidy looks down at that six inch deadly looking iron hook with uncouth glee – and she delivers a few crosses to the face of Ronan to soften him up… AND FORCES OPEN HIS MOUTH…WHAT IN THE BLUE DEVIL IS THIS GODLESS FIEND THINKING? SHE’S FORCEFULLY PUTTING THAT IRON HOOK INTO RONAN’S MOUTH…
Deadprez: AND KASS USES HER OWN WRIST TAPE TO SEAL RONAN’S MOUTH SHUT WITH THE HOOK TRAPPED INSIDE IT!!!
Eve: KASSIDY LOWERS THE ROD IN A FISHING POSITION AND ACTIVATES THE ANTI-REVERSE REEL SWITCH AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SPOOL OF THE FISHING ROD! SHE TWIRLS BACK THE FISHING LEVER AND YANKS THE FISHING HOOK INTO THE INSIDE OF RONAN’S LIPS AS THEY ARE TAPED SHUT!!! THAT SIX INCH FISHING HOOK IS RIPPING RONAN’S MOUTH APART FROM THE INSIDE OUT!!!!!!
Deadprez: RONAN IS KICKING HIS LEGS IN DESPERATION, LETTING OUT MUFFLED CRIES OF AGONY! REACHING BACK TRYING TO FREE HIMSELF! BUT KASS IS ABLE TO BACKPEDAL WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY PULL BACK ON THE FISHING LINE EVEN MORE!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT THANKFULLY RONAN IS ABLE TO GET HIS HANDS AROUND THE TWINE TO TRY AND RIP IT APART! KASSIDY STEPS FORWARD – AND RONAN HITS A KICK TO THE FACE FROM HIS GROUNDED POSITION!
Deadprez: That caught her good but a pissed off Kass comes ROARING BACK WITH A PENALTY KICK!!!
Gavin Kirkland: No! Ronan jumps out of the way and catches her by the head with a BIG TIME BEAL, SENDING KASSIDY CRASHING INTO THE UNFORGIVING LOADING DOCK FLOORS!!!
Eve: Kass goes tumbling several feet just from the pure force of the throw! Ronan meanwhile rips apart the wrist tape that was tied around his head and around his mouth area. Yikes look at how much blood comes spilling out of Ronan’s mouth, and a HUGE chunk of skin is just dangling off of his lips too! Now that is just stomach churning, no matter how you feel about Ronan you really wouldn’t wish that on your worst enemy, but it’s exactly the environment you can come to expect in a match like this.
Deadprez: Kassidy was sent pretty far from Ronan’s beal and her momentum roll stops her at one of the erected columns of the loading dock, which she is using to help pull herself back up. Ronan slowly approaches Kassidy, still leaking blood and saliva from out of his mouth, creating a trail across the loading dock behind him. He uses one hand to wedge Kassidy temple-first against the floating dock column, which is sending enough searing pain to have Kassidy ripping at Ronan’s wrists with her own nails just to free herself! NOW RONAN TEES OFF WITH A SERIES OF COLUMN-PRESSED ELBOW STRIKES!!! GOOD GRIEF HE IS LANDING THEM SO HARD IT IS SHAKING THE WHOLE DAMN DOCK!!!
Eve: Ronan made no bones about his strategy a week ago on Showdown when he targeted Lexi’s skull right in front of Kassidy. He made it clear that he knows where it is opportune for him to strike, and he isn’t going to pass up the opportunity. Kassidy stumbles away from the post that she just had her head hammered into like a nail, she is so out of it she ends up tripping over a large icebox cooler.
Deadprez: Ronan’s just shaking his head wiping blood and drool from his chin, you can tell he’s still coming to grips with being literally “fished” by The Mauler. As Kass rises she bumps into Ronan and she sends off some wicked loud body blows! But Ronan throws his ALL into an elbow strike which sends her spinning! He takes Kassidy off of her feet from behind, Kass tries to dig her nails into Ronan’s face, again refusing to make it easy for him to have his way. BUT RONAN CRATERS HER WITH A REAR HEADBUTT! AND HE HOISTS HER OFF THE GROUND TO SLAM HER INTO THE TOP OF THAT ICE BOX WITH A BELLY-TO-BACK RIPCORD SLAM!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Kass rolls off the ice box holding her tatas after being sent chest first into that box. Ronan pulls open the lid of the ice box… filled with fish and ice!!! Ronan takes Kassidy by the hair up from the floor while Kassidy grabs his wrists trying to leverage her own bodyweight and stop Ronan from what he wants to do!!! SHORT-ARM LARIAT SENDS KASSIDY LANDING RIGHT INTO THE BOX OF FISH AND ICE!
Deadprez: KASS TRIES TO CRAWL OUT OF THAT BOX — PAINFULLY EVER AFTER!!!!!! RONAN WINDS UP CURB STOMPING KASSIDY FACE FIRST INTO ICE AND A TON OF DEAD FISH WITH HER OWN FINISHER!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HE’S NOT DONE EITHER, THIS TIME RONAN CLOSES THE LID OF THE ICE BOX WITH KASSIDY’S TOP HALF STILL FACE PLANTED IN FISH AND ICE! RONAN BACKS AWAY AND GOES CHARGING FORWARD WITH A RUNNING BACK SENTON!! SPLATTERING KASSIDY’S HEAD AND TORSO IN THE PROCESS WITH NO MERCY, EXACTLY THE WAY SHE DESERVES!!
( The ice box spills over and Kassidy’s body comes spilling out of it along with the rest of its contents. Kassidy is covered in mashed up fish guts and crushed up ice. )
Deadprez: Ronan is definitely admiring his own work, but he knows the job not only isn’t finished but technically speaking this match hasn’t even started! Who knows, it may not need to come to a start in the first place at this rate. Ronan turns his attention to the couple of boats latched to the edge of the floating dock.
Gavin Kirkland: His intentions appear to be getting on one of those two-seater speed boats which may not be very large but will be enough to take them to the floating barge that is half a mile west of where they are now. I’ll have you know, my own boat that I have at home is large enough for myself and four of my bitches! Get that look off of your face Eve I’m telling the truth!
Eve: Sure Gavin, I bet you are. I’m sure your invisible boat can fit as many imaginary girlfriends as your heart desires.
Gavin Kirkland: Hold on I have it on my instagram let me show you!
Eve: No thanks not trying to see the women you are stalking. In any case Ronan has finished flushing out his bloody mouth with bottled water, you can even see a chunk of flesh missing from his lips following that traumatic fishing hook incident. He makes his way over to one of the speed boats, removes the tethered rope that connects the cleat of his boat to the floating dock, and steps into it to try to get it started.
( Ronan starts his speed boat after having a bit of trouble getting it going. An arrogant grin washes over his face after the brief, unsettling scare. )
Gavin Kirkland: RONAN LOOK OUT!!!
Deadprez: SUICIDE DIVE FROM THE MAULER!!! KASSIDY WENT FLYING LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL AND SENT HERSELF MISSILING OFF THE FLOATING DOCK INTO RONAN’S SPEED BOAT!!! THE SHEER IMPACT SENDS THE BOAT DRIFTING A FEW FEET AWAY!
Gavin Kirkland: The wicked witch waits for Ronan to pull himself together after being toppled and turned inside out. She BASHES Ronan’s face repeatedly against the dashboard! Now she collapses back into the driver’s seat while Ronan is turned away at the passenger. After catching her breath she grabs Ronan by the head again and this time BASHES RONAN MOUTH-FIRST INTO THE WINDSHIELD FRAME OF THE BOAT!!!=! HOLY SHIT, SHE JUST DROVE RONAN BY HIS DESTROYED LIPS INTO THE SHARP EDGE OF THE FRAME!!! THE PAIN SENDS HIM FLOPPING AS FAR AWAY FROM KASSIDY AS HE CAN POSSIBLY GET, AND HOW CAN YOU BLAME HIM? HOW CAN ANYBODY EVEN STAND BEING ANYWHERE NEAR HER?
Deadprez: Ronan threw himself over the seats and is crawling along the rear stern of his speed boat. A scowling Mauler climbs herself over the seats, and is perched far enough to watch Ronan fight back up to his feet, with more bloody drool just leaking like a faucet from his lacerated lips. Ronan’s back up, looks back at the water behind him in trepidation —
Eve: SPEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: INTO VERTIGO!!!!!!! KASSIDY WANTED TO SPEAR RONAN OFF OF THE BACK OF THE BOAT, BUT RONAN COUNTERS WITH A THUNDEROUS DEEP SIX!!!!!! FANTASTIC REVERSAL!
Deadprez: Fantastic and impactful! It was hit so hard that the boat temporarily tipped nose-up! Ronan himself latches on to the head rest of the passenger seats just to keep himself from slipping off of the stern/back deck of the speed boat! But Kassidy goes tumbling off of the platform and falls into the water!!! Kass has been capsized! And she is fortunate to still be conscious and to not have hit her head, otherwise I don’t know if she would have been able to come back up for air.
Gavin Kirkland: Maybe it’s fortunate for her, but not for the rest of us! She still has the wherewithal to hang on to the side of Ronan’s speed boat with the very tips of her fingers. The boat in itself is at a normal, leveled base now which allows Ronan to crawl over to the edge of the stern again… reaches down to grab Kassidy by the head as she’s barely hanging on… what’s he….. oh, oh my! OH YES!!! WHAT AN ABSOLUTE GENIUS!!! RONAN IS TYING A ROPE AROUND KASSIDY’S NECK!!!
Eve: THAT’S THE ROPE PREVIOUSLY USED TO TETHER THE SPEED BOAT TO THE FLOATING DOCK! RONAN IS WINDING IT AROUND AND TIGHTENING IT AROUND KASSIDY’S NECK! HE FOLLOWS UP WITH AN ONSLAUGHT OF SEATED POINTED ELBOWS TO THE CHEST! DON’T LIKE THIS AT ALL, THERE ARE SOME BAD INTENTIONS INVOLVED HERE!
Gavin Kirkland: OH THE DAYS OF ‘INTENT’ ARE LONG GONE, EVE! HE IS *GOING* TO KILL HER, AND I AM ABSOLUTELY LIVING FOR IT!!! RONAN MALOSI GETS BACK INTO THE DRIVER’S SEAT WHILE KASSIDY HANGS FROM THE EDGE OF HIS BOAT WITH A NOOSE AROUND HER NECK! HE REVS THE MOTOR!!! AND RONAN TAKES OFF!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!
( Ronan drives the speed boat out of REGION I into the waters of REGION II with Kassidy Heart tied to a noose from the back of the boat, latching on to the boat with one hand. )
Gavin Kirkland: YES RONAN!!! DROWN HER!!! LEAVE HER SLEEPING WITH THE FISHES!!! KEEP GOING!!! KEEP GOING!!! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!
Deadprez: KASSIDY’S HEAD IS UNDERNEATH WATER AND EVERY TIME SHE COMES UP FOR AIR, EVEN MORE WATER JETS INTO HER FACE!!! HER LUNGS ARE FILLING WITH FLUID FAST!!! ALL SHE’S GOT ARE HER FINGER TIPS HANGING TO THE BACK OF THE BOAT WITH ONE HAND!!! BUT IF SHE LETS GO THE FORCE FROM THE SPEED OF THE BOAT IS GOING TO SNAP HER FUCKING NECK!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NO PROBLEM, FINE WITH ME!!! RONAN TURNS UP THE SPEED!!! KEEP GOING RONAN!!! SHE’S DONE FOR!!! THERE IS NO ESCAPE, IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SHE SLIPS OFF AND HER HEAD IS SEVERED FROM HER BODY! KEEP GOING!!! .. KEEP GOING!!! ……. KEEP …. RONAN??? KEEP GOING!
( The boat stops. The engine cuts off. A ‘dinging’ sound can be heard from the dashboard. )
Ronan Malosi: WHAT THE HELL?
( Ronan tries to turn the boat back on, but it gives out again. Ronan bangs his fists on the dashboard. )
Ronan Malosi: ARE YOU KIDDING ME
( Ronan looks behind him and realizes he hasn’t even made it more than 200 ft from the dock. )
Ronan Malosi: (speaking with a lisp, from what was done to his lips) ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?! DON’T TELL ME THIS FUCKING THING IS OUT OF GAS!!!
Deadprez: :mjlol: With this economy I wouldn’t even be surprised!
Gavin Kirkland: DAMN IT RONAN WHY DID YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE THE PIECE OF CRAP BOAT?
Ronan Malosi: COME ONNNNN!!!
Eve: Ronan is too busy having a meltdown to realize Kassidy has managed to climb onto the back of the boat. She is literally coughing up water, but she’s freed herself from that rope around her neck. If the boat hadn’t given out there is no possible way she would have held on for long enough; her neck would have been snapped and she would have been history! Ronan looks around and he literally looks like he’s about to have a panic attack. He has no idea what to do with himself – if I were him I’d just get myself to the other boat —
Gavin Kirkland: THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HE SHOULD DO!!! RONAN JUST CALM YOUR ASS DOWN AND LISTEN TO ME!!!! THERE ARE TWO BOATS DAMMIT, TAKE THE OTHER ONE!!!
Deadprez: Bruh, he can’t hear you. We’re like 20 minutes away.
( Kassidy Heart finishes hacking up a lung after nearly drowning, and she crawls off of the boat to free float on her back in Elmendorf Lake. )
Eve: Smart move by Kass who knew she was in no condition to take any more punishment at this current juncture. Ronan barely noticed that Kassidy was even there, he’s too in his own head about being stuck in the lake. What’s he doing now?
(Ronan picks up an emergency satellite phone from the side of the dash and frantically dials.)
Deadprez: You can’t be serious.
Ronan Malosi: 911? Yes, get me the coast guard! I’m here to report a boating accident! I’m lost at sea and I need your help!
Eve: HE’S CALLING THE POLICE.? 😐
Ronan Malosi: (responding to the operator) I KNOW we’re not near the ocean you smart ass! I’m stranded in a disgusting swamp for a lake! … (listening to the operator)… It’s only me. Oh and I guess some dumb broad that I tried to drown, but she’s irrelevant. This is about me.
( Kassidy meanwhile continues to drift on the Lake in an effort to return to the floating dock, making mild strokes along the way to get herself in that direction. )
Ronan Malosi: (listening to operator) No no I’m in a wrestling match. Dia Del Diablo? EAW? You’ve heard of Elite Answers Wrestling have you? I happen to be its biggest star… (listening to the operator) … ‘Substance abuse’?! Don’t be stupid, do I sound like a drug addict!? … (listening to the operator) …. What do you mean ‘do I have a history of mental illness’? JUST SEND SOMEBODY OUT HERE TO FIX MY BOAT ALREADY!
Deadprez: Ain’t no way man this cannot be real. :mjlol:
Ronan Malosi: (to the operator) I KNOW THIS IS NOT THE MECHANIC YOU ASSHOLES! WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS A PRANK CALL? QUIT WASTING TIME OKAY MY TIME IS MONEY!
( Ronan listens to the condescending dispatch operator with the phone in one hand and he uses his other to try to start the boat again. After sputtering from the engine Ronan’s boat managers to power back on, and his eyes light up with bliss. )
Ronan Malosi: (to the operator) You know what on second thought? Nevermind you useless PIGS! I’ve got it taken care of, see ya thanks for nothing!
( Ronan clicks off the phone with a self-impressed smile on his face. He rides westbound from REGION II to REGION III, only a few minutes away from the bridge that overlooks Elmendorf Lake. )
Eve: Looks like Ronan’s gotten a lucky break and he’s not interested in looking back for his opponent! He’s going westbound for the barge on REGION IV which can be seen in the distance close to half a mile from where he is now.
Ronan Malosi: Let’s play some tunes!
( Ronan goes for the FM radio on the speed boat. )
Radio: ♪ “What you know about rollin’ down in the deep?♪
♪When your brain goes numb, you can call that mental freeze”♪
Ronan Malosi: LET’S GOO THIS IS MY JAM!
( Ronan ramps up the speed on his speed boat, doing donuts and going for poorly-performed high octane tricks as “Astronaut In The Ocean” by Masked Wolf plays from the speakers. )
( We see overhead cinematic shots of Ronan zipping around the lake at breakneck speeds. The water rocketed around the hull of his boat from its velocity. Ronan is showing the first signs of enjoying himself despite sporting physical damage from the fight between him and Kassidy. Onlookers from the bridge of REGION III are seen cheering Ronan on from above. )
Ronan Malosi: THANK YOU MY ADORING FANS! YOU LOVE ME! YOU REALLY LOVE ME! I LOVE ME TOO!
( Ronan smiles and waves at the onlookers before passing under the bridge. From the other side Ronan turns around, still riding full-speed, to look back and blow a kiss to the pedestrians on the bridge while they continue to cheer him on. )
*CRASH*
Gavin Kirkland: What was that?!
( Ronan strays too close to the side of the lake underneath the bridge, causing the bottom of his speed boat to slam into one of the jagged underwater rock stacks. However Ronan is too lost in the music to have any idea of what happened. )
Radio: ♪”What you know about rollin’ down in the deep?
When your brain goes numb, you can call that mental freeze
When these people talk too much, put that shit in slow motion, yeah
I feel like an astronaut in the–
( Ronan’s boat loses power and the radio shuts off. )
Ronan Malosi: ♪Ocean yeah what you know about rollin’ down in the deep something something something something you can call that mental freeze-♪ hey!
( Ronan’s notices his loss of traction, and he looks around bewildered as smoke billows from the front of his boat. Ronan now sits in the middle of REGION IV, the deepest part of the lake, with water quickly rushing into his speed boat. )
Ronan Malosi: No way no fucking way not now!!!
Eve: FEAR AND TREPIDATION SETTING IN BY THE LOOK OF RONAN’S FACE! HIS BOAT IS SINKING FAST!
( Ronan reaches for the emergency satellite corded phone to dial “911” again. The front portion of the boat comes close to completely capsizing, leaving him no choice but to crawl over the seats to the stern deck. The corded phone detaches from the dash, giving no dial tone as he lifts it up to his ear. )
Ronan Malosi: PLEASE, GOD NO THIS CAN’T BE HAPPENING TO ME! I CAN’T EVEN SWIM! I’M TOO YOUNG TO DIE!
Gavin Kirkland: DAMN IT RONAN HOW STUPID ARE YOU?! YOU’RE IN A FUCKING LAKE OF FIRE MATCH AND YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW TO SWIM???
Deadprez: IN RONAN’S DEFENSE I DOUBT HE HAD ANY PLANS TO STEP FOOT INTO THAT LAKE, BUT THAT DOESN’T CHANGE HIS REALITY NOW! RONAN IS CLINGING ONTO THE STERN FLOORS WITH DEAR LIFE, AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT THE BOTTOM HALF OF HIS BOAT IS CAPSIZED NOSE-FIRST! TALK ABOUT A DISASTER SCENARIO RIGHT ABOUT NOW, RONAN MAY AS WELL BE ON THE TITANIC, BECAUSE HIS DREAMS HAVE HIT A DAMN ICEBERG!
Ronan Malosi: NO! NO! NO! HELP ME! SOMEONE HELP!
Eve: RONAN IS HUNDREDS OF FEET AWAY FROM THE ONLOOKERS AT THE BRIDGE! THEY CAN HARDLY EVEN SEE HIM! HE IS EVEN FURTHER FROM THE BARGE WHERE THE RING IS LOCATED! HE’S UTTERLY SURROUNDED AND HIS SPEED BOAT HAS NOW GONE TOTALLY BENEATH THE SURFACE! AND RONAN IS SCRAMBLING FOR HIS LIFE!!! PANIC HAS SET IN! HE CAN BARELY KEEP HIS HEAD ABOVE THE SURFACE HIMSELF, RONAN IS A FEW SECONDS AWAY FROM A WATERY GRAVE! :damn:
Deadprez: HANG ON A SEC LOOK WHO IT IS! IT’S KASSIDY!!! KASSIDY HEART PULLS UP IN A SPEED BOAT OF HER OWN RIGHT NEXT TO RONAN!
Ronan Malosi: KASS!!! KASS!!! FOR GOD’S SAKES YOU GOTTA HELP ME!!!
( Kassidy has a cold look on her face. Ronan sinks below water, but he propels his feet off of his sinking speed boat beneath him to come up for air. Kassidy climbs over to the passenger side of her vessel and leans over to watch Ronan drown. )
Ronan Malosi: (struggling to stay above water) THINK OF YOUR DAUGHTERS! IF THEY WERE DROWNING! YOU’D WANT SOMEONE TO SAVE THEM!!! I HAVE A FAMILY!!! I’M SOMEBODY’S CHILD!!!
Kassidy Heart: Really, we’re going there?
( Ronan sinks beneath the surface again, and propels his feet off of his sinking speed boat before it falls out of reach. This provides his final opportunity to comes up for air with no other means of support below him and scream at the top of his lungs. )
Ronan Malosi: THIS ISN’T A GAME!!! I CAN’T SWIM!!! DON’T LET ME DIE THIS WAY!!! HELP ME, PLEASE!!!
( Ronan sinks below the surface with no means of escape. His outstretched hand is the only remaining party of his body that we can see. )
Eve: KASSIDY LEANS OUT OF HER BOAT AND GRABS HIS HAND! KASSIDY IS ACTUALLY GOING TO SAVE RONAN FROM DROWNING!
Gavin Kirkland: I can’t even believe it! Kassidy actually has a Heart! This monstress is capable of empathy after all! I have never seen anything like this in my 23 years of life!
Eve: “23” :usure:
Deadprez: Kass allows Ronan to pull himself up to the edge of the stern of her speed boat behind the passenger seats. A coughing and wheezing Malosi has got one arm over the stern while the rest of his body is still in the water — AND KASSIDY IMPALES A SET OF NEEDLE NOSE PLIERS INTO THE BACK OF RONAN’S HAND!!!
( Kassidy stands on the stern and keeps Ronan, by the hand, from falling back into the lake. )
Ronan Malosi: AHH WHAT THE HELL WHY?! WHY DO YOU EVEN HAVE THOSE?!
Eve: Kassidy glances back at the fisherman’s tackle box sitting in a cramped storage nook behind the passenger cabin. That’s the same tackle box from earlier in the fight that Ronan attempted to use to crush her skull! Ronan’s eyes catch onto it for himself and they open wide in horror!
Kassidy Heart: You really are a stupid piece of shit, aren’t you.
Deadprez: KASSIDY HACKS THE PLIERS BACK INTO RONAN’S HAND, PROMPTING A ROAR OF AGONY FROM RONAN!!! KASSIDY ALLOWS RONAN TO SLINK BACK INTO THE LAKE , AND SHE JAMS THOSE PLIERS INTO THE BACK OF RONAN’S HAND WITH ALL OF HER POWER TO PIN IT AGAINST THE DECK! JEEZ LOUISE! RONAN’S OTHER THREE LIMBS GO FLAILING, AND KASSIDY YANKS A WHIMPERING RONAN BACK UP TO COME TO HER FACE LEVEL!
Kassidy Heart: I hope you realize this lake is where you die. There’s nothing that can change that you fucking bitch.
Eve: KASSIDY OPENS UP THOSE PLIERS AND CLOSES THEM SHUT INTO RONAN’S FLESH-WOUNDED LIPS!!! LISTEN TO HIM SCREAM! LOOK AT HIM SQUIRM! RONAN IS BEING DANGLED OVER THE LAKE IN THIS GRUESOME ‘WATERBOARDING’ LEVEL DISPLAY OF TORTURE!
Kassidy: Look at me when I’m talking to you. I’m not gunna say it again. You *will* die here. There is nothing you can do that will change that. It’s already been decided. I’m just here to make sure it happens by *my* hands, and on *my* terms only. You got it?!
Gavin Kirkland: :damn: KASSIDY TWISTS THOSE PLIERS THAT ARE WRAPPED AROUND RONAN’S LACERATED BOTTOM LIP!!!! SHE YANKS BACK ON THOSE PLIERS, FORCING RONAN TO USE HIS OWN STRENGTH TO PULL HIMSELF OUT OF THE WATER & FULLY ONTO THE BACK OF THE BOAT! Finally, she relents!
Gavin Kirkland: I should have known better than to give this sick, sadistic, unscrupulous, blood thirsty monstrous witch the benefit of the doubt! She is Satan’s bride, figuratively and literally–
Eve: PAINFULLY EVER AFTER!!!!!!!!!! CURB STOMP TO THE HEAD BY KASS THIS TIME AND SHE GOT ALL OF IT!!!
Deadprez: STOMP TO THE SKULL WITH AUTHORITY!!! KASSIDY HEART IS SHOWING HIM HOW IT’S DONE! RONAN ROLLS AROUND HOLDING HIS HEAD, STILL WHEEZING, WITH WATER MOST LIKELY STILL CAUGHT IN THE MAN’S LUNGS. THERE’S NO MERCY IN THE EYES OF THE MAULER RIGHT NOW, AND IT AIN’T LIKE SHE WAS SHOWN ANY MERCY HERSELF TO START WITH!
Eve: Exactly! Say what you want Gavin but Kassidy battled back from the brink of death to get to this point of advantage, and she’s not going to allow herself to be fooled by any emotional pleas! They don’t even register in her mind!
Deadprez: Kassidy digs into the tackle box for some more toys, with brutality still very much fresh on her mind right now. Ronan is rolling away nearing the edge of the boat stern and coughing up a storm. No doubt his head is ringing…Kassidy’s taken out a container of live fish bait and a clear, waterproof drawstring bag. She’s decided to pour the live bait into that bag now, heading over to Ronan to stand over him menacingly!
Gavin Kirkland: KASSIDY TAKES RONAN BY HIS BLOODY LEFT HAND THAT WAS HACKED OPEN BY THOSE PLIERS AND FLATTENS IT WITH A STOMP! RONAN GNASHING HIS TEETH WITH THE MORE FORCE SHE USES TO CRUNCH HER BOOT AGAINST THE POOR MAN’S HAND!!! KASSIDY COMES RAINING DOWN WITH ELBOW SHOTS SLAMMED REPEATEDLY OVER THE HEAD!!! ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE SHOTS! SHE SWITCHES HER STANCE AND TIGHTENS THE DRAWSTRING BAG OVER RONAN’S HEAD AS IT IS FILLED WITH LIVE BAIT! HE’S GOING TO SUFFOCATE UNDER THERE IF IT STAYS ON FOR TOO LONG! HE HAS A FAMILY DAMMIT!
Eve: KASSIDY BACKS AWAY AND FLOORS RONAN WITH YET ANOTHER “PAINFULLY EVER AFTER”, WITH THE DRAWSTRING BAG FULL OF LIVE FISH BAIT WRAPPED AROUND HIS HEAD!!! HE’S OUT!!!
( Kassidy wraps the drawstrings around Ronan’s neck to seal the bag around his head. She crawls over to the edge of her boat where the metal cleats are located. She grabs the rope hanging from the cleats and crawls back over to an unconscious Ronan to tie it around both of his feet. )
Deadprez: Kassidy is tying Ronan’s feet together by his ankles and there’s nothing he can do! That drawstring bag is fastened tightly around his head with live creatures squirming around inside it! Ronan looks no different from a cartel hostage right about now, and something tells me he’s going to wish that he were one in comparison!
Eve:KASSIDY JUMPS BACK INTO THE DRIVER’S SEAT OF HER BOAT! AND THEY TAKE OFF FULL SPEED!!!! RONAN’S BODY IS SENT FLYING OFF OF THE BOAT INTO THE WATER, BEING DRAGGED ACROSS THE SURFACE OF THE LAKE BY THE ROPE AROUND HIS FEET!!!!!!
Deadprez: RONAN IS FLAILING HIS ARMS MOST LIKELY IN PANIC! I’M NOT SURE WHETHER THAT MAKESHIFT STEINKE HOOD IS SAVING HIS LIFE OR IF IT’S ONLY MAKING THINGS WORSE – BUT EITHER WAY IT’S PROLONGING HIS SUFFERING!
Eve: KASSIDY RACES ACROSS THE LAKE AT TOP SPEED, TRAVELING WELL INTO REGION IV WITH RONAN DRAGGED BEHIND THE BOAT! LUCKY FOR HIM HE ISN’T HANGING BY HIS NECK, OR HE WOULD BE A DEAD MAN! BUT I DON’T THINK KASS WANTS TO SEVER RONAN’S SPINE OR DROWN HIM TO DEATH, YOU CAN TELL BY THE FIRE IN HER EYES THAT HER MAIN DESIRE IS TO BURN HIM ALIVE!
Gavin Kirkland: RONAN IS MAKING THE RIGHT MOVE! INSTEAD OF PANICKING, HE’S USING HIS FREE ARMS TO SEAL THE BAG AROUND HIS HEAD TO STOP WATER FROM LEAKING IN! HE’S AWARE ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT AS LONG AS HE’S MOVING HE WON’T SINK, BUT THAT FISH BAIT CONTINUES TO POUR INTO HIS MOUTH, AND IN HIS EYES, AND HIS NOSE, AND HIS EARS!
( Kassidy’s boat speeds toward the Floating Barge at the center of the lake. She circles one full lap around the barge, passing by the massive barrels of oil and flame propulsors lining the sides of the structure. She parks her boat at the west side of the barge, containing a ladder at the side that leads up to an opening in the metal guardrails to enter the platform. )
Gavin Kirkland: FOR FUCKS SAKE RONAN IS DROWNING AGAIN! FROM THE MOMENT KASS STOPPED THE BOAT HE HASN’T BEEN ABLE TO STAY ABOVE WATER AND HE’S BEEN SINKING LIKE A ROCK! WATER IS STARTING TO POUR IN THROUGH THE BAG OVER HIS HEAD! KASS IF YOU PLAN ON BURNING HIM ALIVE YOU BETTER MAKE SURE HE REMAINS ALIVE, OR ELSE IT KINDA BEATS THE PURPOSE!
Deadprez: Bruh I thought I already told you they can’t hear you! That being said, yes, she’s definitely aware of that, Kassidy climbs over and uses every bit of her strength and power to lug Ronan onto the bow of the boat, using that rope to deadlift him out!!! It looks like Kass’ use of the bag as a pocket of air for Ronan actually worked! She frees Ronan’s head from the clear drawstring waterproof bag and is looking to find a way to get him up that ladder, onto the platform of the barge, and roll him into the ring. I can’t believe this match hasn’t even gotten started, this has been a damned action adventure thriller so far. Not sure how much Ronan has left in him, Kass is hoisting him up by his dead weight, damn near throwing her back out just to keep her 280 pound opponent from collapsing to the floor —
Ronan Malosi: :face_vomiting:
Eve: RONAN PROJECTILE VOMITS IN KASSIDY’S FACE!!! EW THAT’S DISGUSTING!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :nauseated_face: I think I’m gonna be sick…I can’t stand seeing other people throw up…it makes me want to throw up. :nauseated_face:
Eve: IT BETTER NOT REACH ME OR I’LL BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU! Kassidy is stunned! She has bits and pieces of fish bait all over her, and ew she has to wipe an undigested piece of kale from her eye :nauseated_face:
Gavin Kirkland: Good grief Eve stop.. don’t describe it. You’re only making it worse. :nauseated_face:
Eve: I’m warning you Gavin! Not here! Kassidy is just cringing still in shock and in disgust, dude I can’t even blame her, that is the grossest looking vomit I think I’ve ever seen in my life. She’s done her best to clean as much of the vomit off as possible, having to use her bare hands to do it. Kass goes from shock, to disgust, to blistering rage and goes right after Ronan —
Deadprez: DEATH-RO THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD BY RONAN!!! THE END OF DAYS SENDS BOTH OF THEIR BODIES CRASH THROUGH THE GLASS WINDOW OF THE SPEED BOAT!!! GLASS GOES PUNCTURING INTO RONAN’S BACK, AND INTO KASSIDY’S FACE!!!
( Kassidy lands with her body contorted in the passenger seat of the boat, while Ronan is laid out on the driver’s side barely able to breathe. Neither are able to move a muscle, other than Ronan solely to let out coughs and clear the rest of his lungs. )
Gavin Kirkland: THE FACT THAT RONAN WAS ABLE TO DIG WITHIN THOSE RESERVES DESPITE WHAT THE MAULER HAS PUT HER THROUGH IS FRANKLY HEROIC! A HERCULEAN EFFORT BY RONAN ALLOWS HIM TO PUSH THROUGH LIMITS I DIDN’T KNOW HE HAD!
( Ronan spends a lengthy period of time catching his breath and looking up at the clouds. Kassidy drops from the passenger seat to the passenger floor, curled up and hardly responsive following the collision she took. Blood starts to pour from a massive gash across Kassidy’s forearm which was sliced open by the shattering windshield. )
Eve: He’s deserving of enormous credit for that no question. Somehow he has managed to rise to a vertical base, as winded as he can be after the hell he was put through. Malosi reaches down for his opponent to pull her up by her hair, traps her in a snug headlock beneath the arm, and he’s slowly but surely climbing up that ladder leading to the platform of the barge — lugging the limp body of Kassidy Heart along with him!
Deadprez: It isn’t more than five to ten feet at the most to get from the boat to the barge, but it is a long arduous climb that Ronan is painstakingly making. But still he is willing to make that climb, eventually reaching the top of the ladder and making it to ringside! Despite how much it has cost he has made it to the Floating Barge – He and Kassidy both – regardless of if it was in her own volition or not!
Eve: Ronan takes another moment to breathe deep breaths while lying on the floor of the “ringside area” so to speak, containing nothing other than concrete floor surrounded by metal guard railings. After a bit more recovery time Ronan drags himself up and takes Kassidy along with him to roll her into the ring, before ultimately rolling herself in. And just like that, they two have FINALLY, FINALLY reached their destination! At long last they have made it into the ring!!!
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gavin Kirkland: I can not believe it took this fucking long for the match to get started.
Deadprez: If you ask me Gavin this match started from the damn shore! That bell is just a technicality as far as I’m concerned! Hell this thing isn’t even a match, it is a battle to the death! They are showing it all over their faces and their bodies! Ronan drops down to one knee while Kassidy is crawling on all fours! They are both soaking wet, covered in blood, covered in vomit; Ronan with lacerations on his lips and his back, and Kass’ body littered with bumps and bruises with blood all over her arms! Both sweating profusely, both with restricted breathing! They’ve been drowned, hung, impaled, force fed! You name it!
Gavin Kirkland: These two have put each other through it all – HOWEVER THERE IS ONLY ONE THING LEFT TO PUT EACH OTHER THROUGH!!
( Several hundred tons of oil are set ablaze by the flame propellers on the side of the barge. The lake surrounding Ronan Malosi and Kassidy Heart becomes a Lake Of Fire. An overhead shot shows the burning Lake Of Fire surrounding Ronan and Kassidy underneath a blood orange sky. )
Gavin Kirkland: THERE IT IS!!! THE FLAMES GO ROARING BELOW!!! RONAN AND KASSIDY CAN SEE THE BURNING FLAMES IN THEIR PERIPHERAL VISION!!! AND THERE IS NO REFEREE STUPID ENOUGH TO SHARE THAT RING WITH THEM, BECAUSE THE ONLY WAY THIS ENDS IS BY SENDING THE OTHER PERSON INTO A LAKE OF LITERAL FIRE–
Eve: RONAN CATCHES KASSIDY WITH A BLINDSIDING HAYMAKER! KASS DROPS TO A SEATED POSITION AT THE CORNER, AND RONAN UNLOADS WITH A FLURRY OF MUD HOLE STOMPS INTO KASS WHILE SHE’S CORNERED!
Deadprez: I hate to say it but it’s the only intelligent move you can make in a match with stakes like this, against an opponent like The Mauler. Especially when you have her in a position where she’s at a disadvantage! Ronan takes Kassidy UP AND OVER, PUTTING HIS ENTIRE BACK INTO A BEAL TO SEND HER ACROSS THE RING TO THE OTHER SIDE!!! KASS SCRAMBLES TO HER FEET LEANED OVER THE TURNBUCKLE! RUNNING BODY SPLASH BY RONAN! CAUGHT HER! HE TAKES HER INTO THE OPPOSITE TURNBUCKLE! ANOTHER RUNNING SPLASH HITS THE MARK!
Eve: Ronan sends Kassidy across the ring with an Irish whip! She rebounds off the ropes, nearly tripping over herself, purely on fumes!!! RONAN SENDS HER INTO THE MAT WITH A DEATH-RO AGAIN!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT?!?! KASSIDY COUNTERS OUT OF IT THE DEATH-RO WITH A MODIFIED GAWD’S GIFT!!!!!!! RONAN IS TAKEN TO THE MAT WITH A CROSS ARMBREAKER TO TRAP THE ARM!!! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?
Deadprez: SHE’S SHOWING US HOW! NOT ONLY IS IT POSSIBLE, IT’S INCREDIBLE!!! WHAT A SEAMLESS TRANSITION OUT OF THE DEATH-RO INTO THE GAWDS GIFT!!!
Eve: LISTEN TO THOSE ANIMAL SNARLS FROM KASS!!!
Deadprez: OH I HEAR THEM! SHE IS REARING BACK ON THAT REMORSELESS LOCK THAT SHE MANAGED TO BEAUTIFULLY APPLY FROM OUT OF THE BLUE! RONAN HAS NOWHERE TO GO AND NO ONE WHO CAN SAVE HIM!!! THERE ARE NO AVAILABLE OPTIONS, NOTHING HE CAN DO–
Eve: RONAN TAPS!!! HE’S TAPPING OUT LIKE HIS LIFE DEPENDED ON IT!
Deadprez: AND THAT’S THE THING GUYS, RONAN CAN TAP ALL HE LIKES, BUT THERE IS NO BELL THAT WILL SOUND, THERE IS NO REFEREE THAT WILL PULL THE MAULER OFF OF HER PREY!!! INSTEAD SHE CLAMPS DOWN WITH HER TEETH, SINKING HER SHARP MANDIBLES INTO RONAN’S BLEEDING LEFT HAND THAT SHE SLICED OPEN EARLIER WITH THOSE PLIERS! THE MAULER BEGINS TO GNAW AGAINST THE FLESH THROUGH RONAN’S OPEN WOUND!!!!!!!!
Ronan Malosi: AAAAAAAAH MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOOOOOOOOOOOP!
Gavin Kirkland: I AM AT A LOSS FOR WORDS! THE SHEER INHUMANITY!!! WHERE THE HELL IS HER SHOCK COLLAR?! SHE NEEDS TO BE EUTHANIZED!!!
Deadprez: Kassidy releases Gawd’s Gift after having her desired serving of Ronan’s blood and flesh! She sits up, licking his blood off of her fingers, and just watches with zero emotion or expression as he rolls out of the ring and drops himself to the concrete floor with a thud. But anything is better than being in the clutches of the unchained Mauler.
Eve: Kassidy sits with what she’s done for a minute while Ronan is on the floor outside closing his eyes and damn near praying to God to make the pain go away! But he’d better be careful what he wishes for! Kass comes crawling across the ring like the predator that she is, and slithers down to ringside to stalk her prey!
Gavin Kirkland: Dear God Ronan just fucking jump. It’s over.
Eve: A nihilistic take here but it may serve as a sobering truth! Ronan looks incapacitated! He is on the ground holding his arm hyperventilating, almost appearing to be in a state of traumatic shock! The fires continue to roar below and around them! The heat is turning up, with sweat pouring down Kassidy’s face, and you can’t exactly control an inferno of this magnitude that easily! It could end up spreading into the barge for all we know and ultimately consume them both!
Deadprez: I didn’t even think about that Eve but it’s absolutely true. Neither of them have very much time left, but The Mauler isn’t even thinking about time, she’s thinking about destruction!!! Kassidy looks down at her opponent with a soulless, piercing look before peeling him up from the heap in which he was laying.
Gavin Kirkland: RONAN SENDS KASSIDY HEAD FIRST INTO THE METAL RING POST FROM OUT OF NOWHERE!!!!
( Ronan drops to his knees while Kassidy staggers away after hitting her head. She winds up leaning over the metal guard rail which serves as the only thing to catch her from falling into the Lake Of Fire. )
Gavin Kirkland: FOR ALL WE KNOW THAT MIGHT HAVE CONCUSSED HER! BUT KASSIDY HEART HAS GOT FAR BIGGER PROBLEMS THAN A CONCUSSION IN STORE! RONAN COMES TO A RISE, ROLLS IN THE RING, AND ROLLS OUT OF THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CORNER FOR HIS TEXTBOOK BASEBALL SLIDE LARIAT TO SEND KASSIDY INTO THE GUARD RAIL AND DOWN TO THE LAKE BELOW!!! —
Gavin Kirkland: NO FUCKING WAY!!! SHE ATE THE SHOT!!! KASSIDY ATE THE LARIAT AND DIDN’T EVEN BUDGE!!! RONAN GOES FOR ANOTHER LARIAT!!! SENDING HER LEANING BACKWARDS, FIFTEEN FEET ABOVE THE LAKE OF FIRE! BUT SHE HANGS ON TO THE BARRIER WITH HER ARMS!!! SHE’S GOT TO BE THE TERMINATOR OR SOMETHING, THAT’S THE ONLY WAY THIS MAKES SENSE!!!
Eve: RONAN TAKES KASS BY HER FEET AND FLIPS KASSIDY OVER THE GUARDRAIL TO FINISH HER OFF!!! BUT KASSIDY CATCHES RONAN WITH A KICK TO THE MOUTH WHILE HER LEGS ARE DANGLING IN AIR! RONAN RETREATS LEANING BACK AGAINST THE APRON JUST STUNNED! RRRRRRRRRRRAPPPPPPPPPPPTURRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!! HELLUVA KICK TAKES RONAN’S HEAD OFF, AND SENDS HIM FLYING BACK INTO THE RING FROM THE MOMENTUM!!!
( Kassidy Heart painfully drags herself back into the ring, only for Ronan to instinctively exit from the other side, dropping back down to ringside at the west side of the barge. )
Deadprez: Zero frustration from Kassidy! She is in another zone and on another level! It’s like we’re seeing Ultra Instinct Kassidy because there is nothing on her mind right now other than the objective which is to annihilate her target! Ronan is taking forever and a day to recover but I don’t blame him a solitary bit! He’s been through hell, BUT I GOT A FEELING HE’S GOING TO GO THROUGH A LOT MORE!!! BY THE TIME HE’S UP, KASS REBOUNDS OFF THE OTHER ROPES AND GOES SPRINTING FORWARD!!! SUUIIIIICIIIIIIIIIDEEEEE DIIIIIIIIIIIVEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HOLY SHIT!!! HOLY SHIT!!!! RONAN YANKED DOWN THE MIDDLE ROPES AT THE LAST SECOND!!!
Eve: NO WAY!!!
Gavin Kirkland: KASSIDY GOES FLYING ACROSS RINGSIDE THROUGH THe GUARD RAIL OPENING, INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE!!!!!!!!!! AS GOD AS MY WITNESS KASSIDY HAS BEEN SET STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Oh my God. It’s over.
( Ronan’s eyes bug out in amazement and he rolls into the ring trying to take in what he just went through. )
Ronan Malosi: Holy shit, holy fucking shit, I’m alive. I won. I WON!
Gavin Kirkland: THERE IS NO GAWDLY INTERVENTION, NO MEDICAL PROCEDURE, NO ACT OF GOD, NO MIRACLE THAT CAN BE PERFORMED TO SAVE HER!!! DING DONG, THE WITCH IS DEAD! THE WICKED, WICKED WITCH IS DEAD! AND THERE IS NO COMING BACK THIS TIME!!!
Ronan Malosi: I DID IT! I FUCKING DID IT!
( Ronan is overcome with awe on the verge of tears, he is legitimately praying to God thanking him for his blessings. Meanwhile, )
Gavin Kirkland: No.
( Meanwhile…… )
Gavin Kirkland: Not a chance.
( Meanwhile…….. )
Gavin Kirkland: I won’t allow it.
( Ahem. Meanwhile……… a replay airs showing Kassidy Heart crash-landing from the suicide dive, off of the Floating Barge, into the glass covered dashboard of her partially burning boat in the Lake Of Fire. Kassidy is now shown curled up on the floor of the driver’s seat with her eyes glazed over. )
Deadprez: KASS IS STILL ALIVE!!! SHE’S STILL IN THIS MATCH!!! RONAN HAS NO IDEA!!!!
Eve: AND IN HIS DEFENSE HOW COULD HE?! FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES KASSIDY HEART SHOULD BE AS GOOD AS BURNED TO ASHES! BUT INSTEAD SHE MIRACULOUSLY LANDED INTO HER SPEED BOAT WHICH DRIFTED IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME!! HAD KASSIDY FLOWN EVEN A FEW INCHES FURTHER, OR LANDED AT THE WRONG ANGLE, SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN RENDERED INTO HUMAN SOOT!
Gavin Kirkland: WHATEVER, WHO CARES! IF ANYTHING THAT BOUGHT HER A LITTLE BIT OF TIME, BUT IT’S PROLONGING THE INEVITABLE! THE ENTIRE PERIMETER OF HER BOAT IS ON FIRE, AND THERE IS HEAVY SMOKE STARTING TO FORM FROM UNDERNEATH! SHE’S AS GOOD AS SCREWED!
Deadprez: LOOK AT THIS THERE IS SCALDING HOT WATER BEGINNING TO POUR IN THROUGH THE CREVICES FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT! KASSIDY SHRIEKS AS HER LEGS COME INTO CONTACT MOMENTARILY WITH THE LAKEWATER HOT ENOUGH TO BURN INSTANTLY ON CONTACT!!!
( A panting Kassidy drags herself over the passenger seats as the cabin floors slowly start to flood with water. She crawls on top of the tackle box, looks up, and sees fire begin to overtake the far edge of the back of the boat. She glances back behind her and sees the water levels rise. )
Deadprez: A WINDED, BRUISED UP, PROFUSELY SWEATING KASSIDY HEART IS CAUGHT BETWEEN SCALDING WATER AND A RAGING FIRE! THE FLAMES ARE SPREADING IN, THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN, THE PROVERBIAL ROOF IS CAVING IN! SHE CAN FEEL HER BOAT SINKING! WHAT IS SHE GOING TO DO?
Gavin Kirkland: DO A FLIP, THAT’S WHAT SHE SHOULD DO! THAT’S ALL SHE CAN DO!
( Kassidy frantically digs through the fisherman’s tackle box, tossing out hooks, sinkers, bobbers, leaders, lures, and a first-aid kit. These items are all sent into the lake and immediately begin to smolder and engulf into flames. Kassidy digs to the bottom of the tackle box, desperately searching for options– )
EVE: KASSIDY DIGS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE TACKLE BOX AND FINDS A DISSEMBLED CARBON FIBER FISHING ROD! SHE’S DOING EVERYTHING IN HER POWER TO PIECE TOGETHER THE PIECES OF THE ROD IN THE RIGHT PLACES!
Deadprez: YOU CAN HEAR HER BATED BREATH, SHE IS LITERALLY GASPING FOR AIR NOT JUST FROM THE DAMAGE AND FATIGUE, BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME WE ARE ACTUALLY SEEING ANXIETY SET IN ON KASSIDY! THIS IS THE MOST PRESSURE KASSIDY HAS EVER BEEN UNDER IN HER LIFE! THIS IS LITERALLY A PHYSICAL AND MENTAL FIGHT FOR HER SURVIVAL!
Eve: THE FLAMES ARE ETCHING CLOSER, THIS TIME LESSENING THE AMOUNT OF ROOM THAT SHE HAS ON THE STERN OF THE BOAT! BOILING WATER BEGINS TO FLOOD UP TO THE CHAIR! THE FLAMES ON THE LAKE OF FIRE ITSELF ARE ALSO CONTINUING TO SPREAD, WITH THE SPREAD OF THE OIL BEGETTING MORE AND MORE WALLS OF FIRE!
Deadprez: KASS MAKES A BREAK FOR IT! YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!!!! KASSIDY USES THE FISHING ROD TO POLE VAULT HERSELF OFF OF THE BURNING BOAT!!!!!!!
( And in a Michael Bay-esque display, the overheating engine causes the boat to explode while Kassidy Heart is in mid air. )
Gavin Kirkland: I HATE HER SO MUCH!!!
Eve: KASSIDY JUST SUCCESSFULLY POLE VAULTED LIKE AN OLYMPIC ATHLETE OFF OF THE EXPLODING AND ONTO THE STAIRS OF THE FLOATING BARGE! RONAN HASN’T GOT A CLUE!
( Ronan Malosi continues to march around the ring raising his fists to the sky, praising Jesus, thanking God, and repenting for his sins. Only for Kassidy Heart to ascend over the ring apron like the devil incarnate and stalk him from behind. )
Ronan Malosi: I AM NEW AGAIN! I AM BORN AGAIN! I GIVE MY LIFE TO YOU JESUS! THANK YOU FATHER GOD FOR MY AWESOME LIFE! THANK YOU GOD FOR ALL MY PRECIOUS MONEY! THANK YOU GOD FOR MY FORTUNE! THANK YOU GOD FOR MY FAME! THANK YOU GOD FOR GETTING RID OF THAT CANCEROUS WHORE KASSIDY AND SENDING HER STRAIGHT TO HELL TO SUCK SATAN’S DICK! THANK YOU GOD FOR GIVING ME SUCH A BIG COC-
Deadprez: LOW BLOW!!! RONAN IS BROUGHT DOWN BY HIS EGO, LITERALLY!!! RONAN DROPS RIGHT ON HIS FACE WITH HIS MOUTH HANGING OPEN IN DISBELIEF! RONAN IS LIVING OUT AN ABJECT NIGHTMARE! ON THE GROUND HOLDING HIS LOINS AND GAWKING UP AT THE RETURNING MAULER, BACK FROM HELL, TO CLAIM HIS HEAD!
Ronan Malosi: You’re…you’re supposed to be dead.
Kassidy Heart: Run away.
Eve: KASSIDY ALLOWS RONAN TO RETREAT EVEN THOUGH THERE’S NOWHERE TO GO! HE CRAWLS ON HIS BELLY TO THE APRON UNDER KASSIDY’S CLOSE SUPERVISION — NOT SO FAST! BEFORE HE CAN LEAVE THE RING KASS HANGS RONAN BY HIS THROAT ALONG THE MIDDLE ROPES, AND TRAPS HIM A MODIFIED “THANK U, NEXT”!!!!!!!! ROPE-HUNG FUJIWARA ARMBAR WITH THE OTHER ARM CAUGHT IN LEG SCISSORS!!! THE STOMPS ARE VIRTUALLY ENDLESS!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: I CAN’T DO THIS.
Deadprez: RONAN IS LITERALLY BEING STRANGLED BY THE MIDDLE ROPE, WITH BOTH ARMS BEING TORTURED, AND SADISTIC STOMPS SMASHING RONAN’S SKULL INTO PIECES!!! HE IS BEING PUMMELED WITHIN AN INCH OF HIS LIFE! HE CAN’T EVEN SUBMIT!
Eve: NOT ONLY CAN HE NOT TAP OUT, BUT THERE’S NO WAY FOR HIM TO EVEN VERBALLY QUIT BECAUSE HE’S BEING KICKED IN THE HEAD AND NOW HE’S TAKING KICKS TO THE MOUTH AT A RAPIDFIRE RATE FOR CHRIST’S SAKES! RONAN IS FADING FAST —
Deadprez: BUT KASS RELEASES THE HOLD??
Eve: Ronan is slumped over on the middle rope while Kassidy backs away into the far corner! Ronan hardly has any idea of where he is anymore! BUT THE MAULER ON THE OTHER HAND HAS HIM FULLY SCOUTED WITH A VERY FAMILIAR, SINISTER EXPRESSION! RONAN USES THE TOP ROPE TO TRY TO STRAIGHTEN HIMSELF UP! AND KASSIDY HEART RACES ACROSS THE RING!!!! FOR THE SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
Deadprez: RONAN’S SENT OFF THE APRON!!! OVER THE RAIL!!! AND INTO THE LAKE TO BURN FOR AN ETERNITY!!!!!!!
( DING! DING! DING! )
( A chilling moment of silence replaces the usual post-match music. The only prevalent sound in the backdrop is the roaring blaze of the lake of fire that swallowed Ronan completely. Eve and Deadprez are speechless, and Gavin Kirkland is audibly heard weeping over the broadcast.)
Maria Del Ray: HERE IS YOUR WINNER… KASSIDY HEART!!!!!!
( Kassidy Heart lays on her side staring off into space, trying to process what she has done. )
Eve: What did we just see?
Deadprez: For the first time in her career Kassidy looks like she herself is rattled by her own carnage. Just look at her face. That is the face of a woman gazing into the abyss, who can see the horror of the abyss gazing back into her.
( We are given an instant replay from multiple angles of Kassidy Heart pole vaulting herself off of her speed boat merely seconds before it explodes. Then sneaking up on Ronan from behind with a low blow before applying the modified “Thank U, Next.” And finishes off with a new aerial view of Kassidy spearing Ronan Malosi off of the apron, and sending him flying over the guard rails to crashland into the Lake Of Fire. Ronan’s body sinks beneath the surface with no struggle and there is not a sign of him remaining on the live feed. )
Gavin Kirkland: (still weeping) FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IS ANYBODY GOING TO DO SOMETHING?! ANYTHING?! ARE WE REALLY GOING TO SIT AROUND AND WATCH A MAN DIE?!
Eve: What other choice do we have?
( Kassidy lays on her back and snaps out of her momentary trance. A cheshire cat smile slowly creeps onto her face and she can do nothing other than laugh. )
Eve: It goes back to the saying, “Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster.” You’re right Deadprez. Kassidy Heart is gazing into the abyss, and it’s very clear that she likes what she sees.
( FINAL SHOT: Harmonizing of a dark choir can be heard faintly in the background. Kassidy Heart lies alone in the ring staring up at the ‘abyss’ of a blood orange sky with a smile painted on her face. She lays unmoving in the middle of a doomsday apocalyptic wasteland with the Lake Of Fire burning all around her. The sun lowers behind the tower of a church on a nearby hill, overseeing the carnage below. The sound of the church bell tolls to end the scene. )
(An ad for Super Showdown on April 9th featuring the Answers World and Hardcore Championships on the line….)
(Dia Del Diablo fades back in and cuts to the video tron. The fans immediately shoot to their feet, losing their collective minds, because if there was ever a match that was so highly anticipated after the week of promo battles… it’s definitely this one.)
https://i.ibb.co/mTmS65s/Adam-Lucasvs-Impact.png
(After showing off the match graphic, the camera feed cuts to the ring where Gina Romano is standing by. It zooms right past her to show a pole extending from one of the turnbuckles and interestingly enough, positioned on top of the pole is none other than a glove…)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A THREE DEGREES OF HELL MATCH!!! THE MATCH ITSELF IS DIVIDED INTO THREE DIFFERENT PARTS WITH THREE SETS OF RULES! THE FIRST BOUT WILL BE A FLAMING COAL MINER’S GLOVE MATCH, CONTESTED UNDER ‘ANYTHING GOES’ RULES, AND IT CAN BE WON BY PINFALL OR SUBMISSION! IF A COMPETITOR IS ABLE TO MAKE IT UP THE POLE, THEY CAN GRAB THE COAL MINER’S GLOVE THAT HAS BEEN DIPPED IN GASOLINE, LIGHT IT ON FIRE, AND USE IT AS A WEAPON!
(This sends the crowd buzzing with excitement but it isn’t long before the excited chatter quickly turns into cheers as “You Know My Name” by Chris Cornell begins to blast across the PA system.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST… FROM NEW YORK… WEIGHING IN AT 231 POUNDS… HE IS ‘THE NEXT LEVEL’ ADAM LUCAS!!!!
Deadprez: Listen to these fans come unglued as Adam Lucas begins to make his way to the ring! They want nothing more than to see this hard working Elitist pick up the biggest win of his career tonight especially after coming up short at our last two marquee events. Back at King of Elite, Adam met ‘Hunger on the Hillside’ which allowed Andre Walker from Dynasty to walk away with the title of King of Elite.
Eve: And it was just last week that Adam went to war with Minerva in an Electrified Scaffold Match at Shock Value. A lot of people, Impact included, questioned Adam’s decision to take that match with this event a week later, but Adam remained true to his word that he was doing the right thing in stepping up and giving Minerva a fight he felt she had more than earned.
Gavin Kirkland: 😍 who in their right mind would turn down a chance to grapple with Minerva, anyway?
Eve: Believe me, Minerva’s beauty had nothing to do with Adam accepting that match and walking into this fight less than 100%.
(Adam does appear to be banged up. He is wincing as he walks and the wounds from last week are on display. He hasn’t bothered to hide anything, knowing everyone likely watched the match with Minerva. Impact is the type of opponent that will brutalize an opponent, injured or not. Adam knows he is walking in with a disadvantage, but he is prepared to handle whatever Impact has planned for him tonight.)
(Once he’s in the ring and gets set, his music fades out. It is soon replaced by ‘M3tamorphosis’ by Playboi Carti featuring Kid Cudi.)
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT… FROM SEATTLE, WASHINGTON… WEIGHING IN AT 221 POUNDS… HE IS THE HALL OF FAMER… IMPACT!!!!
(Impact forgoes his usual pomp and circumstances, and makes his way to the ring focused on the task at hand. It’s gotten to be pretty personal between Adam Lucas and himself, and tonight he wants to make sure he crushes all of Adam’s hopes and dreams.)
Deadprez: It’s been an up and down season for Impact thus far. Twice he has come close to winning that elusive tenth world championship but he just hasn’t been able to get over the hump yet. Theron Nikolas has been involved, somehow hampering Impact’s efforts to dethrone then-champion Kassidy Heart, and you know that doesn’t sit well with a talent like Impact. He wants nothing more than to become the first athlete in EAW history to reach double digits when it comes to world championships, truly cementing himself as the singular Elitist who has been able to transcend all eras.
Eve: Rumors have been swirling that the winner of this match could find themselves with an Answers World Championship opportunity down the line, and considering Impact hasn’t had a solo title shot since last year’s Pain for Pride, you know he is ready to do whatever needs to be done tonight to make sure he leaves San Antonio as the winner.
Gavin Kirkland: No lotion needed for this match, even both men possess incredibly beautiful hair, but I do expect nothing to be held back and whoever ends up winning this thing will have truly earned it.
Deadprez: You really just complimented two dudes on their hair.
Gavin Kirkland: So?
(Impact is in the ring and he is staring straight at Adam Lucas. The referee does his usual thing where he checks with both competitors to make sure they’re ready, and once they both agree they are, he calls for the bell.)
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Deadprez: IMPACT JUST THREW SALT IN THE EYES OF ADAM LUCAS AND HE TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A RUNNING LARIAT THAT TURNS THE UNSUSPECTING ELITIST INSIDE OUT! IMPACT QUICKLY THROWS HIMSELF ON ADAM AND STARTS WAILING AWAY!
Eve: ABSOLUTELY NO LOVE OR RESPECT BETWEEN THESE TWO MEN AND THAT POINT WAS MADE PERFECTLY CLEAR THIS WEEK! IMPACT WITH THOSE BRUTAL LEFTS AND RIGHTS… HE IS JUST BASHING ADAM’S FACE IN RIGHT NOW!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM ATTEMPTS TO THROW IMPACT OFF, BUT IMPACT GRABS HIM BY THE THROAT AND SLAMS THE BACK OF ADAM’S HEAD INTO THE MAT OVER AND OVER! ADAM LUCAS IS NOT 100%. WE KNOW HE WENT THROUGH AN ABSOLUTE WAR LAST WEEKEND AT SHOCK VALUE AGAINST MINERVA, AND IMPACT IS LOOKING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT RIGHT NOW!
Deadprez: IMPACT ROLLS OFF ADAM, GRABS HIM BY THE NECK, AND THROWS HIM INTO THE CORNER! IMPACT RUNS TOWARDS ADAM, BUT ADAM MANAGES TO DART TO THE SIDE! IMPACT PUTS THE BREAKS ON, BUT ADAM WITH A DROPKICK THAT CONNECTS TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD! IMPACT GOES CHEST FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLES AND ADAM LOCKS HIS ARMS AROUND HIS WAIST AND SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!
Eve: ADAM QUICKLY HOPS ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AND HE IS TRYING TO CLIMB THE POLE! HE IS GOING FOR THE COAL MINER’S GLOVE AND THE LIGHTER!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT IS UP AND HE GRABS A HANDFUL OF TIGHTS! HE RIPS ADAM DOWN FROM THE POLE AND THE BACK OF ADAM’S HEAD HITS THE MAT HARD! ADAM IS GRABBING HIS HEAD AND IMPACT BEGINS TO STOMP ON HIM! IMPACT WITH STOMPS TO THE HEAD, THE NECK, AND THE CHEST! ADAM TRIES TO ROLL OUT OF THE WAY BUT IMPACT GRABS HIM BY THE ANKLE AND JERKS HIM BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING! ADAM TRIES TO KICK THE NINE-TIME WORLD CHAMPION AWAY FROM HIM BUT IMPACT STOMPS HIM RIGHT IN THE MID-SECTION!
Deadprez: IMPACT TAKES OFF RUNNING TO THE ROPES, LEAPS ON THE MIDDLE ONE, AND THERE IS ‘FLIGHT SIGHTS’!!!! THE LIONSAULT CO-
Eve: NO! IT DOES NOT CONNECT! ADAM LUCAS GOT HIS KNEES UP AND IMPACT IS CLUTCHING AT HIS STOMACH NOW! ADAM DRAGS HIMSELF UP AND HE LUNGES AT IMPACT! IT’S ADAM’S TURN TO HAMMER AWAY ON IMPACT! REVENGE FROM EARLIER! HE ISN’T HOLDING ANYTHING BACK TONIGHT! ADAM SWITCHES TO FOREARMS AND CRACKS IMPACT ACROSS THE JAW!!!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM PULLS IMPACT UP BY THE HAIR AND HE PEPPERS HIM WITH MULTIPLE FOREARM SHOTS! HE BACKS IMPACT UP ALL THE WAY TO THE ROPES AND CHOPS HIM RIGHT ACROSS THE CHEST! THAT CHOP JUST ECHOED THROUGHOUT THE ALAMODOME AND HE DOES IT AGAIN! ADAM LUCAS IS LIGHTING UP IMPACT WITH THOSE CHOPS NOW AND THESE FANS ARE GOING CRAZY!
Deadprez: ADAM GRABS IMPACT AND WHIPS HIM ACROSS THE RING! HE CATCHES IMPACT ON THE REBOUND WITH A CLOTHESLINE, BUT LOOK AT THE QUINTESSENTIAL CHAMPION! HE’S RIGHT BACK UP AND ON HIS FEET, AND HE DUCKS ANOTHER CLOTHESLINE ATTEMPT FROM ADAM! ADAM WHIRLS AROUND, LOOKING FOR A SPINNING HEEL KICK BUT IMPACT GRABS HIM BY THE FOOT AND SNAPS ADAM DOWN TO THE MAT! HE MAINTAINS CONTROL OF THE LEG AND GOES FOR THE OTHER ONE!!!!
Eve: IMPACT IS LOOKING FOR THE ‘WALLS OF IMPACT’ BUT ADAM LUCAS IS FIGHTING TOOTH AND NAIL, TRYING TO STOP THE SUBMISSION FROM HAPPENING! IMPACT STOMPS ADAM IN THE FACE AND ELECTS TO SNATCH HIM UP BY THE HAIR INSTEAD! HE DRAGS ADAM TO THE CORNER AND SMASHES HIS FACE INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT DROPS DOWN AND ROLLS TO THE OUTSIDE AND HE IS REACHING INTO THE RING! HE GRABS HOLD OF ADAM AND WISHBONES HIM! YIKES! IMAGINE NOT BE ABLE TO FUCK DR. BETHANY BLUE AFTER THIS IS OVER???
Eve: Now why in the hell did your mind go there?
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t know, Eve! This match started off with Impact throwing salt in Adam’s eyes and we’ve been excited ever since. I couldn’t help myself because the thought of boning the good doctor gets me horny….
Deadprez: FOCUS! We have a match going on and Impact just got Adam in a figure four leglock wrapped around the ringpost! There is absolutely NOTHING that can be done to save Adam from this! Anything goes here tonight at Dia Del Diablo, and Adam is doing everything he can to hang on here! Impact finally releases the figure four but the damage has been done.
Eve: Impact’s not done! He’s making his way over to the timekeeper’s area and he just grabbed a chair! Impact has the chair folded in half and he’s looking to smash it into Adam’s knee!
Gavin Kirkland: IT HITS THE RINGPOST! ADAM MANAGED TO PULL HIS LEGS OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE IMPACT COULD OBLITERATE THAT RIGHT KNEE!!!
Deadprez: Impact slides in the ring with the chair and he goes right after Adam! Adam manages to throw his hands up, blocking the chair from striking him in the face! Impact tries again and Adam rolls out of the way! He finds himself on the apron now and he uses the ropes to pull himself up! Impact with the chair and Adam dives between the top and middle rope! He catches Impact in the gut and is able to snatch the chair! Adam slams the chair down across the top of Impact’s head!
Eve: Impact staggers back but he’s able to regain his footing! He stumbles towards Adam and Adam cracks him across the top of the head with the chair a second time! Impact falls to the mat and Adam drops to the ground! He’s digging under the ring and HE PULLS OUT A CAN OF LIGHTER FLUID!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM DIGS AROUND SOME MORE AND HE PULLS OUT A BOX OF MATCHES! ADAM THROWS THE CHAIR BACK INTO THE RING AND GETS BACK IN! HE IS DOUSING THE CHAIR WITH LIGHTER FLUID AND HE LIGHTS IT ON FIRE! THERE IS A BURNING CHAIR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING AND ADAM GRABS IMPACT!!!!
Deadprez: SPINEBUSTER ONTO THE FLAMING CHAIR!!!! THE FLAME IS SMOTHERED OUT THANKS TO IMPACT AND ADAM GRABS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEE-
Eve: KICK OUT BY IMPACT!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Now would be the perfect time for Adam Lucas to go after the coal miner’s glove, but he doesn’t seem interested! As we alluded to earlier, the verbal battle between these two turned extremely personal this week. Adam has pulled Impact up by the hair and he wraps his arm around his neck! He spikes Impact’s head into that chair with a DDT, and he goes for another cover!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEE-
Deadprez: ANOTHER KICK OUT BY IMPACT!!!!
Eve: I’m pretty sure Adam Lucas knows that it’s going to take a lot more than that to put away someone as legendary as Impact, right?
Gavin Kirkland: I mean, he did just get driven into a flaming chair and now his head has been spiked into it. I don’t know about you, Eve, but that would take a lot out of most competitors.
Eve: Impact is built different :wow:
Deadprez: Adam’s back up and he is looking at the glove! As Gina explained during our introductions, the coal miner’s glove has been doused in gasoline and there is a lighter hanging up there with it as well. Whichever man can grab the glove can use it as a weapon, and it looks like Adam might be going for it! Adam is heading to the corner and he is looking to climb the pole!
Gavin Kirkland: I’d rather see Bethany climbing up that pole to be honest…
Eve: ADAM LUCAS IS CLOSE TO GRABBING THE GLOVE BUT IMPACT IS SITTING UP! HE SEES ADAM REACHING FOR THE GLOVE AND HE SPRINGS TO HIS FEET! IMPACT HURRIES TO THE CORNER AND HE HAS ADAM BY THE LEG! ADAM IS TRYING TO SHAKE HIM OFF, BUT IMPACT IS UP ON THE ROPES NOW! IMPACT HAS ADAM BY THE WAIST, BUT ADAM FIGHTS HIM OFF WITH AN ELBOW TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD!
Deadprez: IMPACT FIRES BACK WITH A CLUBBING BLOW TO THE BACK! HE CATCHES ADAM BY THE WAIST AGAIN AND HE TRIES FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX FROM THE SECOND ROPE!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM IS HANGING ON THE POLE AND HE FREES ONE HAND TO HIT IMPACT WITH ANOTHER ELBOW! ELBOW AFTER ELBOW, AND FINALLY IMPACT IS OFF THE ROPES! ADAM LUNGES FOR THE GLOVE BUT LOOK! IMPACT HAS SLIPPED UNDER HIM AND HE’S GOT ADAM!!!! IMPACT IS LOOKING TO POWERBOMB ADAM AS THEY MOVE AWAY FROM THE ROPES!
Eve: ADAM IS PUNCHING AT IMPACT’S HEAD! HE IS FIGHTING HIS WAY FREE! IMPACT HAS NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO PUT ADAM DOWN! IMPACT TAKES A STEP BACK AND ADAM SLIPS OUT OF THE RING! ADAM IS ON THE APRON AND HE IS URGING IMPACT TO TURN AROUND! ADAM LEAPS ON THE ROPES! SPRINGBOARD FLYING FOREARM!!!!!!
Deadprez: ADAM SNATCHES IMP UP BY THE AIR AND IRISH WHIPS HIM INTO THE CORNER! HE GETS A RUNNING START AND THERE’S A HUGE STINGER SPL-
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM CRASHES AND BURNS! IMPACT MOVED OUT OF THE WAY AND NOW HE’S ROLLING ADAM UP FOR THE COVER!!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
Eve: ADAM KICKS OUT!
Deadprez: IMP WASTES NO TIME GETTING UP AND HE’S GOT ADAM WITH HIM! HE CATCHES HIM WITH A FOREARM AND THEN FOLLOWS UP WITH AN UPPERCUT! ADAM MANAGES TO BLOCK A SECOND FOREARM SHOT AND IMPACT WITH A RIGHT HAND INSTEAD! BOTH MEN ARE ATTACKING ONE ANOTHER NOW, FISTS FLYING, AND THEY’RE NOT HOLDING ANYTHING BACK!
Gavin Kirkland: IT’S IMPACT WHO KNEES ADAM IN THE GUT AND BACKS HIM UP AGAINST THE ROPES! HE CHOPS HIM RIGHT ACROSS CHEST AND FOLLOWS IT UP WITH A FANCY SPINNING KNIFE-EDGE CHOP! IMPACT KEEPS ADAM AGAINST THE ROPES AND HE JUST LIT HIM UP WITH FIVE CONSECUTIVE MONGOLIAN CHOPS! HE POPS ADAM RIGHT ACROSS THE JAW WITH AN OPEN-HANDED SLAP, AND HE SLAMS HIS KNEE INTO ADAM’S STOMACH!!!
Eve: IMPACT HAS REALLY PICKED UP THE PACE AND ADAM EATS A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT THAT SNAPS HIS HEAD BACK! IMPACT’S GOT ADAM BY THE NAPE OF NECK AND HE JAMS HIS THUMB INTO ADAM’S THROAT! IMPACT SWITCHES TO A CHOKE, LIFTS ADAM OFF HIS FEET, AND TOSSES HIM INTO THE CORNER! IMP STOMPS ADAM INTO A SITTING POSITION BEFORE DRIVING HIS KNEE INTO ADAM’S FACE! IMPACT HAS A HAND FULL OF HAIR NOW AND HE TOSSES ADAM TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING!
Deadprez: ADAM LANDS HARD ON THE OUTSIDE AND IMPACT HEADS FOR THE POLE! IMPACT IS SCALING THE POLE AND HE IS GOING TO GRAB THE GLOVE!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT LOOK! ADAM IS PULLING HIMSELF BACK ONTO THE APRON DESPITE THE BEATING HE JUST TOOK AND HE’S HEADING FOR IMPACT! ADAM PUNCHES IMPACT IN THE STOMACH AND IMPACT RETALIATES WITH A KICK TO THE FA-
Eve: ADAM CAUGHT IMP’S FOOT! HE PULLS IMPACT OFF THE ROPES AND IMPACT’S FACE SMASHES INTO THE TURNBUCKLES ON THE WAY DOWN! ADAM SLIPS THROUGH THE ROPES AND IMMEDIATELY GOES FOR THE COVER!!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTW-
Deadprez: EASY KICK OUT FOR IMPACT!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM IS BACK UP AND HE BRINGS IMPACT WITH HIM! HE DRAGS IMPACT TO THE CORNER AND SMASHES HIS FACE INTO THE TURNBUCKLES! ADAM DOES THIS SEVERAL MORE TIMES BEFORE TAKING IMPACT OUT OF THE CORNER AND BRINGING HIM TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING! ADAM WITH A SUPLEX DOWN ON TOP OF THAT CHAIR AND HE RUNS THE ROPES!
Eve: ADAM LOOKING FOR A RUNNING ELBOW DROP BUT HE GOT THE CHAIR INSTEAD! IMPACT GETS TO HIS FEET AND HE PULLS ADAM UP! IMPACT WITH A WRIST-LOCK AND HE SNATCHES ADAM’S ARM BEHIND HIS BACK! ADAM WITH AN ELBOW SHOT! HE FREES HIM AND HE RUNS THE ROPES AGAIN! RUNNING CLOTHESLINE!!!!
Deadprez: WHAT THE… IMPACT WITH A FUCKING MATRIX EVASION OF ALL THE THINGS HE COULD HAVE DONE TO AVOID THAT CLOTHESLINE AND ADAM WHIRLS AROUND, LOOKING A LITTLE SHOCKED! IMPACT CATCHES HIM OFF GUARD WITH A SPINNING BACK FIST, BUT ADAM REMAINS ON HIS FEET! THIS TIME IT’S IMPACT WHO RUNS THE ROPES AND HE COMES FLYING BACK AT ADAM, LOOKING FOR A RUNNING CROSSBODY!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :damn: ADAM LUCAS JUST CAUGHT HIM AND COUNTERED WITH A FALLAWAY MOONSAULT SLAM! ADAM LUCAS HAS THE COVER!!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TT-
Eve: THE HALL OF FAMER GETS THE SHOULDER UP!
Deadprez: Both men take their time getting up! This has been a pretty fast-paced match since the opening bell. Obviously a lot is on the line for both men tonight, and neither one of them want to walk out of San Antonio as the loser of this contest.
Eve: Absolutely not, and this is only the first fall of this Three Degrees of Hell match. It’s going to be a long, brutal night for these two incredible athletes, and it seems like neither one of them have any plans of holding anything back for the later stages.
Gavin Kirkland: Both of them are back and they’re going right back at one another! Adam lands a punch to Impact’s jaw and it’s Impact who answers with a forearm! Impact lands another forearm and he goes for Adam’s head! Impact is looking for a DDT, but Adam catches him in the stomach and is able to follow up with an elbow to the head! Adam with a shot the face and he’s got Impact by the hair! Impact is dragged to the corner but he gets his foot up to stop Adam’s momentum! An elbow catches Adam in the jaw and Impact turns towards Adam, scoots up to the second rope, and brings Adam down to the mat thanks to a flying double ax-handle to the top of the head!
Deadprez: Impact is heading towards the corner where the pole is but Adam grabs him by the leg! Adam is hanging on to Impact and Impact uses his free leg to stomp Adam in the face! Adam brushes it off, uses his legs, and takes Impact out at the knees! Adam grabs Impact in a headscissors and he rolls him over for a pin!
OOONNNEEE!!!
Eve: Imp easily kicks out, and both men scramble to their feet! Both look towards the glove but instead of going for it, they lock up with one another once again!!! They jockey back and forth for position, and Impact is the one who wins this battle! He gets Adam up and there’s a huge back body drop! Adam Lucas is down on the mat and Impact with an elbow drop to the chest!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT RUNS TO THE CORNER! HE IS GOING TO GET THE GLOVE! IMPACT IS UP ON THE TOP ROPE AND HE IS LOOKING TO CLIMB THE POLE!
Deadprez: ADAM LUCAS IS BACK UP THOUGH! HE RUSHES TOWARDS THE CORNER AND GRABS IMPACT BY THE TIGHTS! HE IS TRYING TO PULL IMPACT DOWN FROM THE POLE BUT IMP IS USING ONE OF HIS LEGS TO HANG ON! HE USES HIS OTHER LEG TO KICK AT ADAM, BUT ADAM REFUSES TO DROP! IMPACT WITH ANOTHER KICK AND THIS ON SENDS ADAM TEETERING!
Eve: :mjlol: IMPACT SWINGS AROUND THE POLE AND USES THE MOMENTUM TO STRIKE ADAM IN THE FACE WITH HIS KNEE! ADAM GOES DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: … Impact working that pole just made me see him in an entirely different, and seriously beautiful light…
Deadprez: :JRsaywut:
Eve: ANYWAY! IMPACT HAS MADE HIS WAY UP THE POLE AND HE’S GOT THE GLOVE! IMPACT HAS FREED THE GLOVE AND THE LIGHTER!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM JUST THREW HIMSELF INTO THE ROPES AS IMPACT LET GO OF THE POLE! IMPACT JUST CROTCHED THE ROPES AND ADAM IS ALL OVER IMPACT! HE IS BEATING HIM IN THE BACK AND HE PULLS HIM DOWN, TYING IMPACT UP IN A TREE OF WOE POSITION! IMPACT HAS LOST THE GLOVE AND THE LIGHTER, AND HE IS BEING KICKED IN THE STOMACH OVER AND OVER BY ADAM LUCAS! ADAM FINALLY LETS UP ON HIS ASSAULT AND BACKS UP TOWARDS THE PERPENDICULAR CORNER!
Deadprez: RUNNING BASEMENT STYLE DROPKICK CONNECTS RIGHT TO IMPACT’S CHEST AND SENDS HIM SPRAWLING ONTO THE MAT! ADAM QUICKLY GOES FOR THE COAL MINER’S GLOVE, BUT IMPACT STILL HAS THE WHEREWITHAL TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE RING!
Eve: If Impact can’t use the glove right now, he’s not about to let Adam use it, and that is why experience in any and all situations will always trump everything else. That kind of attention to detail is something that can only be learned over time and it goes without saying that Impact is one of, if not the very best, to ever live when it comes to this sport.
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t like the look of frustration that just crossed Adam’s face. That’s the absolute last thing he needs to feel right now. He’s in there with a highly skilled, highly intelligent opponent and we can only assume that Adam prepared himself for everything coming into this match :lupe:!
Deadprez: He’s gone to the outside to retrieve the glove, but that’s allowed Impact some time to recover! Impact has gotten himself into the corner furthest away from where Adam is at on the outside, and he is using the ropes to pull himself up. Adam has got the glove and the lighter, but he sees Impact waiting for him to get back into the ring! There is a nasty smile on Impact’s face and Adam knows that as soon as he gets back into the ring, he is getting attacked.
Eve: It has to be a sinking feeling knowing your opponent has outsmarted you, but if there is something Adam Lucas has been proving to all of us since he got here it’s that he is one of the most resilient competitors in this entire company. It doesn’t matter what you throw at him. It doesn’t matter what position he finds himself in. He is going to fight with whatever he has and that’s one of the things that makes that man special.
Gavin Kirkland: Get off his dick, Eve. He’s engaged.
Eve: :wtf: I was just stating facts.
Deadprez: Impact is motioning for Adam to get back into the ring, even telling him he’ll stay back. I wouldn’t trust that at all because while Adam is resilient and full of heart, Impact is extremely cunning and not very trustworthy. He’s seen too much. He’s done too much. He gives absolutely no fucks about anyone or their well-being.
Eve: With his eyes firmly locked on Impact, Adam climbs back onto the apron. Impact doesn’t flinch. He stays put and Adam finally steps between the ropes, getting ba-
Gavin Kirkland: KNEW IT! IMPACT GREETS ADAM LUCAS WITH A BIG BOOT TO THE FACE! THE GLOVE AND LIGHTER FALL FROM ADAM’S HANDS AS ADAM HITS THE ROPES! IMPACT GRABS ADAM ON THE REBOUND AND PLANTS HIM INTO THE MAT WITH A BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX, AND FOLLOWS UP WITH A SUCCESSFUL ‘FLIGHT SIGHTS’!!! ADAM IS CLUTCHING AT HIS MIDSECTION NOW AND IMPACT HAS GONE TO RETRIEVE THE GLOVE!
Deadprez: ADAM HAS CRAWLED ONTO HIS KNEES AS IMPACT PULLS THE GLOVE ONTO HIS RIGHT HAND! HE IS TRYING TO LIGHT IT ON FIRE NOW AND ADAM IS UP TO HIS FEET! ADAM MAKES HIS WAY TO IMPACT RIGHT AS THAT GLOVE IGNITES!!!!
Eve: HOLY SHIT! ADAM WALKS RIGHT INTO ‘FIST OF FURY’!!! THAT RIGHT HAND KNOCKOUT PUNCH OF IMPACT’S WAS JUST PUNCTUATED WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT THANKS TO THE FLAMING COAL MINER’S GLOVE!!!!! IMPACT HOLDS UP HIS HAND WITH THE FIERY GLOVE AND PLACES HIS BOOT RIGHT ACROSS ADAM’S CHEST!!!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gina Romano: HERE IS THE CONQUEROR OF THE FIRST DEGREE OF HELL…. IMPACT!!!!
(The official, who had bolted from the ring right after counting the pin, returns with a fire extinguisher. Impact, who is being showered with boos from the crowd, lets the official put the fire out on the glove before he removes it from his hand. Medical personnel are also in the ring, and they are checking on Adam, who has a nasty burn on his face thanks to the KO shot.)
Eve: Okay… that was fucking insane and it was only the the first degree of hell.
Deadprez: I can’t even begin to imagine how the rest of this match is gunna go…
(As the commentators banter back and forth, recapping that went down in the first part of the match, one of the medics that had been at ringside is tending to Adam and waking him up with smelling salts. He looks a little dazed, but when asked if he is okay to continue the match, he gives a thumbs up and struggles into a sitting position. The referee nods his head at Gina, who gets up from her chair at ringside.)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE SECOND BOUT OF THIS MATCH WILL BE A LASHES OF BRIMSTONE MATCH! BOTH COMPETITORS WILL BE CONNECTED AT THE WRIST WITH A STRAP THAT HAS BEEN SOAKED OVERNIGHT IN LIGHTER FLUID AND THE STRAP WITH BE SET ON FIRE! THE FIRST COMPETITOR TO TOUCH ALL FOUR CORNERS IN SUCCESSION WILL BE DECLARED THE WINNER!
(The official referee for the match, as well another one who is at ringside to help with fire extinguishers and whatnot, both attach separate ends of the strap to both Adam Lucas and Impact. As the second referee gets out of the ring, he motions for the timekeeper to ring the bell.)
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gavin Kirkland: AND HERE WE GO! IMPACT DOESN’T WAIT FOR THE REFEREE TO LIGHT THE STRAP ON FIRE! HE WANTS TO CATCH ADAM AS HE IS STILL RECOVERING FROM THE KNOCKOUT PUNCH THAT ENDED THE FIRST DEGREE OF HELL! HE DOUBLES THE STRAP IN HALF AND SLAMS IT ACROSS ADAM’S STOMACH! IMPACT NOW PEPPERING ADAM WITH FOREARMS!!! ADAM MANAGES TO STRIKE BACK WITH A RIGHT HAND, BUT THERE’S NOT ENOUGH FORCE BEHIND IT AT THE MOMENT! IMPACT WITH MORE FOREARMS! IMPACT LETS UP FOR A MOMENT, BUT ONLY TO CRACK ADAM RIGHT ACROSS THE SKULL WITH A HEADBUTT! THAT STUNS ADAM, WHO FALLS BACK AGAINST THE ROPES AND IMPACT USES THE STRAP AGAIN TO LASH ADAM ACROSS THE STOMACH!
Deadprez: THE REFEREE IS GETTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE COMPETITORS, AND HE IS MAKING IMPACT BACK UP! THAT STRAP WHICH HAS BEEN SOAKED IN LIGHTER FLUID IS SUPPOSED TO BE LIT ON FIRE AND THAT’S WHAT THE REFEREE IS TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH! HE IS FUMBLING WITH THE LIGHTER THOUGH AND THAT’S ALLOWED ADAM TO COME BACK AND KICK IMPACT IN THE STOMACH! ADAM DROPS A FEW ELBOWS DOWN ACROSS IMPACT’S HEAD AND HE USES THE STRAP TO WHIP IMPACT ACROSS THE BACK! IMPACT DROPS TO HIS KNEES AND ADAM WHIPS HIM AGAIN BEFORE WRAPPING THE STRAP TIGHTLY AROUND IMPACT’S NECK!!!!
Eve: THE REFEREE FINALLY HAS THE LIGHTER WORKING BUT RIGHT NOW ADAM IS CHOKING THE LIFE OUT OF IMPACT! THE REFEREE TELLS ADAM TO LET GO BUT ADAM ISN’T GUNNA LISTEN! IMPACT’S FACE IS TURNING PURPLE AND HE COULD BE ON THE BRINK OF UNCONSCIOUSNESS!
Referee: (off-mic) :will: Man just let me light the strap on fire. It’s Dia Del Diablo!
Crowd: WE WANT FIRE! 👏👏👏 WE WANT FIRE! 👏👏👏 WE WANT FIRE 👏👏👏
Gavin Kirkland: Aren’t they supposed to be chanting ‘WE WRESTLE’! ‘WE WRESTLE’!???
Eve: Voltage fans have infiltrated the building :lupe:
Deadprez: :mjlol:
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM STILL HAS IMPACT WRAPPED UP IN THAT CHOKE AND HE IS DRAGGING HIM TOWARDS THE TURNBUCKLES! ADAM SLAPS HIS HAND DOWN ON ONE CORNER AND WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! WHAT THE FUCK?
Crowd: OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! OKAY!
Eve: FIRE JUST SHOT OUT OF THE SENSOR! Before this match began, sensors were attached to each corner so when the competitors touched them, they would light up signaling how many turnbuckles had been touched. I should have known that there would be some kind of Dia Del Diablo like twist, and here we are! We have fire activated sensors and now one corner of the ring has flames shooting out of it!
Gavin Kirkland: Seems like the fans are ‘OKAY’ with that! Shout-out to ‘The Messiah’, aka the devil himself Drake King!
Deadprez: ADAM IS DRAGGING IMPACT TO THE SECOND CORNER, BUT IMPACT HAS GRABBED ONTO THE ROPES! IMPACT IS HANGING ON, HINDERING ADAM FROM GOING ANY FURTHER, AND ADAM STOMPS AWAY AT IMPACT’S HANDS! HE FINALLY GETS IMPACT OFF THE ROPES, BUT IN DOING SO HE LOOSENED THE STRAP THAT WAS AROUND IMP’S NECK, AND IMPACT IS ABLE TO SLIP TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING! HE GRABS A HOLD OF THE STRAP AND YANKS, BRINGING ADAM DOWN AND PULLING HIM OUT OF THE RING!
Eve: Ooooh! The fire from the turnbuckle just retreated due to the count being broken up!
Gavin Kirkland: Impact uses the strap to pull Adam into a clothesline that knocks him to the ground.
Impact: (off-mic) Alright, light the shit on fire now.
Eve: THE CROWD JUST EXPLODED AS THE REFEREE DIVES OUT OF THE RING TO IGNITE THE STRAP! THE FIRST DEGREE OF HELL WAS PRETTY TAME ALL THINGS CONSIDERED BUT SOMETHING TELLS ME THAT BUSINESS IS ABOUT TO PICK UP!
Deadprez: FUCK YES IT IS! THE STRAP ATTACHED TO ADAM’S AND IMPACT’S WRISTS IS NOW ENGULFED IN FLAMES AND IMPACT LAYS THE STRAP ACROSS ADAM’S CHEST! HE STOMPS DOWN ON IT AND HOLDS IT IN PLACE, BURNING ADAM ALIVE RIGHT NOW! ADAM IS SCREAMING IN PAIN AND IMPACT FINALLY LETS UP! ADAM GRABS FOR HIS CHEST AS HE ROLLS AROUND ON THE GROUND AND IMPACT KICKS HIM ONTO HIS STOMACH! HE FLIPS THE STRAP ACROSS ADAM’S BACK AND STOMPS ON IT AGAIN! HE IS ONCE AGAIN HOLDING THE STRAP IN PLACE AS IT BURNS THE FLESH FROM ADAM’S BACK!
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe: I’ve had a few experiences with candle wax and I had one bitch that liked her genitalia burned with a lighter every now and then, but this is really just taking it to a whole other level.
Eve: Wait… what? What the fuck did you just say?
Gavin Kirkland: She was totally into temperature and fire play, and kinda turned me into a bit of a pyrosexual. I mean, I got upset yesterday seeing Lexi and Olivia with the blowtorch but when I watched the match back in my hotel room, I thought to myself that I wouldn’t mind fucking either of them in campfire.
(There is a long, awkward silence at the broadcast booth because no one really knows how to reply to Gavin.)
(In the meantime, Impact has stopped torturing Adam and rolls him back into the ring. With the burning strap now in play, both competitors are fully aware of the danger both of them are in. Adam’s chest and back are burnt and already blistering, and Impact is making sure to do as little damage to himself as possible with the strap. He pulls Adam into a sitting position, carefully wraps the strap around his own wrestling boot, and hits Adam in the face!)
(Someone at the broadcast booth finally clears their throat.)
Eve: Wonderful weather we are having today in San Antonio 😃😃! Impact has just kicked Adam in the face with the help of the flaming strap and now he is making his way to the first corner!
Deadprez: IMPACT PULLS ADAM UP BY THE HAIR AND SLAMS HIM FACE FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLE! THE SENSOR IS ACTIVATED AND THOSE FLAMES LICK ADAM’S FACE, SINGEING HIS SKIN AND HAIR! IMPACT DRAGS HIM TOWARDS THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE, BUT ADAM SEEMS TO REALIZE JUST HOW DIRE THIS SITUATION IS! HE IS ABLE TO STOP IMPACT FROM THROWING HIM INTO THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE AND IMPACT EATS AN ELBOW TO THE FACE! ADAM WITH TWO MORE ELBOWS BEFORE HE IS FINALLY FREE AND HE CATCHES IMPACT WITH A SPINNING BACK KICK! HE FOLLOWS UP WITH A STIFF KICK RIGHT TO THE SIDE OF IMPACT’S HEAD AND THERE’S A STEP-UP ENZIGURI!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HE CONNECTS WITH THE BACK OF IMPACT’S HEAD AND THAT SENDS IMPACT STUMBLING INTO THE ROPES! ADAM GETS THE STRAP SWINGING AND HE FLINGS IT RIGHT INTO IMPACT’S CHEST! HE HITS HIM WITH THE STRAP TWO… THREE… FOUR MORE TIMES!
Eve: THOSE ARE SOME NASTY BURN MARKS THAT HAVE APPEARED ACROSS IMPACT’S CHEST AND ADAM PULLS HIM AWAY FROM THE ROPES! HE KICKS IMP IN THE BACK OF THE LEGS TO FORCE HIM INTO A KNEELING POSITION AND HE CIRCLES IMPACT SLOWLY, WRAPPING THE FLAMING STRAP AROUND HIM! HOLY SHIT! IMPACT IS BOUND WITH THE FLAMING STRAP AND ADAM IS GRABBING THE CHAIR THEY USED IN THE FIRST DEGREE OF HELL! HE SLAMS THE CHAIR INTO THE BACK OF IMPACT’S HEAD, FORCING HIM ONTO HIS STOMACH!
Deadprez: AND NOW HE IS BEATING IMPACT IN THE BACK WITH THE CHAIR!!! OVER AND OVER ADAM HITS IMPACT AND THERE IS NOTHING IMPACT CAN DO TO DEFEND HIMSELF! HE IS BOUND WITH THAT STRAP AND THE ONLY RELIEF HE IS GETTING IS THAT SHIT IS BEING SMOTHERED THANKS TO THE CHAIR! ADAM HAS DENTED THE CHAIR THANKS TO THE ABSOLUTE FORCE FROM THAT BEATING AND HE TOSSES IT TO THE SIDE!
Gavin Kirkland: NOW WOULD BE THE PERFECT TIME TO RUN AROUND THE RING AND TOUCH ALL FOUR CORNERS, BUT I THINK ADAM HAS SOMETHING ELSE IN MIND! HE IS FREEING IMPACT FROM THE STRAP BUT IT’S SO HE CAN SLIP TO THE OUTSIDE! THE FORMER HARDCORE CHAMPION IS DIGGING UNDER THE RING AGAIN AND HE PULLS OUT A TRASH CAN FULL OF PARAPHERNALIA! ADAM TOSSES IN A COOKIE SHEET, A BLACK BAG, A CHEESE GRATER, A PIZZA CUTTER, A FUCKING HATCHET, AND CAN OF PAM!!!
Eve: Oh dear Gawd. I can think of only one use for a can of Pam cooking spray in a match like this…
Gavin Kirkland: HOMEMADE BLOW TORCH, AMIRITE???
Deadprez: ADAM IS BACK IN THE RING WITH THE METAL TRASH CAN AND HE SLAMS IT DOWN ACROSS IMPACT’S BACK! IMPACT EATS ANOTHER SHOT WITH THE TRASH CAN BEFORE ADAM SCOOPS HIM UP! ADAM LUCAS WITH A HIP TOSS TRANSITIONED INTO A CRADLE PILEDRIVER AND HE PLANTS IMPACT ON TOP OF THE METAL TRASH CAN! ADAM CALLS THAT MOVE ‘HONOR BOMB’ AND HE BEGINS TO MAKE HIS WAY TOWARDS THE FIRST CORNER! HE USES THE STRAP TO DRAG IMPACT ALONG WITH HIM AND HE PULLS THE HALL OF FAMER UP! DO UNTO OTHERS AS ADAM SLAMS IMPACT’S FACE INTO THE TURNBUCKLE AND THE SENSOR IGNITES! HE LETS IMPACT FEEL THE FLAMES KISS HIS SKIN BEFORE HE DRAGS HIM TO THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE!
Eve: IMPACT’S FACE COLLIDES WITH THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE AND ONCE AGAIN, ADAM HOLDS HIM IN PLACE! IMPACT IS FIGHTING AS THE FLAMES START TO BURN HIM AND ADAM DOUBLES THE STRAP IN HALF AND BEGINS TO WHIP IMPACT! IMPACT FALLS TO THE MAT AND HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! ADAM JUST FLUNG THE STRAP INTO THE FLAMES TO SET IT ON FIRE ONCE AGAIN!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM LASHES IMPACT WITH THE BURNING STRAP BEFORE DRAGGING HIM TO THE THIRD TURNBUCKLE! I THINK HE IS GOING TO CONQUER THE SECOND DEGREE OF HELL AND EVEN UP THIS BOUT!
Deadprez: HE MIGHT DO JUST THAT AS HE TOUCHES THE THIRD TURNBUCKLE! WE HAVE THREE CORNERS OF THE RING LIT UP WITH FIRE RIGHT NOW AND THIS SOLD OUT CROWD IS CHEERING ADAM LUCAS ON AS HE MAKES HIS WAY OVER TO THE FOURTH AND FINAL CORNER! HE’S SO CLOSE TO THAT FINAL TURNBUCKLE, GUYS!!!!
Eve: HE REALLY IS, AND IMPACT KNOWS IT! IMPACT HAS BEEN PUT THROUGH THE RINGER THE LAST FEW MINUTES OR SO, BUT HE DOESN’T WANT TO LET ADAM EVEN UP THE MATCH! IMPACT HAS NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO SACRIFICE HIS OWN WELL BEING AND HE THROWS HIS HANDS INTO THE FLAMES TO GRAB THE BURNING STRAP! ADAM REACHES OUT TO TOUCH THE FINAL TURNBUCKLE BUT IMPACT PULLS HIM BACK! IMPACT PULLS HIM BACK!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM WAS LITERAL INCHES AWAY FROM SENDING US TO THE THIRD DEGREE OF HELL BUT IMPACT PUT HIMSELF IN JEOPARDY BY GRABBING THE FLAMING STRAP AND PULLING ADAM TO THE MAT! IMPACT IS CRADLING HIS CHARRED HANDS TO HIS CHEST AND ADAM IS BACK UP TO HIS FEET! HE DIVES TOWARDS THE FINAL TURNBUCKLE AND HE LANDS RIGHT ON IT!!!!
Deadprez: BUT IT WASN’T IN TIME! RIGHT AS ADAM SET THE FOURTH TURNBUCKLE OFF, THE OTHER THREE EXTINGUISHED! IMPACT WAS ABLE TO BREAK UP ADAM’S MOMENTUM LONG ENOUGH TO SAVE THIS STAGE OF HELL FOR HIMSELF!!!!
(A look of absolute desperation crosses Adam’s face as he slumps in the corner and notices he didn’t get the fourth turnbuckle in enough time. The other three have extinguished, and he comes to realize that he has to go and do it all over again.)
Eve: Adam has no other choice but to get up and go through this process all over again. Impact destroyed his own hands in order to keep himself in this particular part of the match, but it may end up still costing him. That being said, it was just seven days ago at Shock Value that Adam Lucas went through an absolute war with one of the deadliest competitors we have in all of EAW in Minerva, and you know that he didn’t walk into this match at a hundred percent.
Deadprez: Adam Lucas makes his way back to his feet and he touches the turnbuckle once again. The last he wants is for it to extinguish and he begins to make his way back around the ring! He is going for the second turnbuckle, but Impact is crawling after him! He’s trying not to put pressure on his destroyed hands, but what other choice does he have? Impact’s dealt with some grim situations before inside the ring and somehow found a way to overcome them, and in the back of his mind, he knows he’s got an opponent who isn’t at the top of his game right now. That’s not even a disrespectful comment towards Adam, either, it’s just the reality of the situation and something I’m sure Adam would admit himself.
Gavin Kirkland: Adam is able to ignite the second turnbuckle, but Impact is right there! Impact grabs onto the ropes and hoists himself up, and Adam is forced to turn around when he isn’t able to move forward! IMPACT GREETS HIM WITH A HUGE FOREARM AND THAT SENDS ADAM STAGGERING BACK! IMPACT WRAPS HIS HANDS AROUND ADAM’S THROAT AND HE IS TRYING TO FORCE HIM BACK INTO THE FLAMING SENSOR!
Eve: ADAM’S HANDS GRIP IMPACT’S WRISTS AND THE STRUGGLE IS ON! IMPACT IS TRYING TO END ADAM LUCAS RIGHT NOW AND SHOVE HIS HEAD INTO THAT FIRE, AND ADAM IS FIGHTING WITH EVERYTHING HE HAS LEFT TO STOP IMPACT FROM DOING THE UNTHINKABLE!
Deadprez: DESPERATION HEADBUTT FROM ADAM AND HE IS ABLE TO WRESTLE IMPACT’S HANDS FROM AROUND HIS NECK! ADAM GRABS IMPACT’S ARM AND HE TRIES TO PUSH IMPACT’S ALREADY BURNED HAND INTO THE FIRE!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT WITH A FLURRY OF ELBOWS TO FIGHT HIMSELF FREE OF ADAM! HE CATCHES ADAM IN THE EYE AND IS ABLE TO PUT SOME SPACE BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM! IMPACT SWINGS THE FLAMING STRAP, TRYING TO GET SOME MOMENTUM GOING, AND HE TRIES TO FLING IT RIGHT INTO ADAM’S FACE!!!!
Eve: ADAM DUCKS AND IS ABLE TO AVOID GETTING HIT BUT IMPACT IS LOOKING FOR ANOTHER ‘FIST OF FURY’!!!
Deadprez: ADAM IS ABLE TO BLOCK THE KNOCK OUT PUNCH THIS TIME! HE KICKS IMPACT IN THE GUT AND SPIKES HIM WITH A DDT! ADAM STARTS SHAKING THE STRAP AND LETTING IT HIT IMPACT! HE IS BEING BURNED ALL OVER HIS BODY RIGHT NOW AND ADAM IS MAKING SURE HE TAKES FULL ADVANTAGE OF THIS MOMENT! HE STOMPS IMPACT IN THE HEAD A FEW TIMES TO MAKE SURE HE IS OUT AND HE BEGINS TO MAKE HIS WAY TOWARDS THE TURNBUCKLES!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM HAS ONE! HE JUST IGNITED THE FIRST TURNBUCKLE AND HE CHECKS TO MAKE SURE IMPACT IS STILL DOWN BEFORE HEADING TOWARDS THE SECOND ONE!
Eve: LISTEN TO THESE FANS AS ADAM SETS THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE AFLAME! HE HAS TWO MORE TO GO AND IMPACT HASN’T BUDGED! ADAM PICKS UP THE PACE AS HE GETS CLOSER TO THE THIRD TURNBUCKLE!!!
Deadprez: HE GETS IT! ADAM HAS THREE TURNBUCKLES LIT UP AND HE IS HURRYING TOWARDS THE FOURTH! THE LAST TIME HE WAS ABOUT TO TOUCH THE FOURTH, IMPACT WAS ABLE TO STOP HIM!
Gavin Kirkland: OH NO!!!!!
Eve: ADAM REACHES FOR THE FOURTH TURNBUCKLE AS IMPACT SPRINGS UP! LOW BLOW! ADAM COLLAPSES TO HIS KNEES AND IMPACT KICKS HIM IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD! IMPACT FALLS TO THE MAT, AND TRIES TO COLLECT HIMSELF AFTER TEMPORARILY PUTTING ADAM OUT OF THIS MATCH!
Deadprez: Devastating turn of events for Adam Lucas, who has damn conquered this second degree of Hell not once… but twice. He is down on the mat, in obvious pain, and it’s Impact who is dragging himself up. Impact kicks Adam a few times in the ribs before igniting the turnbuckle, and it looks like he is the one in control now thanks to that low blow!
Gavin Kirkland: HOLD ON! ADAM GOT TO HIS KNEES AND MANAGED TO HIT THE TURNBUCKLE TOO! A SECOND BURST OF FIRE IS COMING OUT OF THE SENSOR NOW AND THIS FLAME HAS A BLUISH TINT TO IT!
Eve: SHOWDOWN BLUE!
Deadrez: IMPACT SEES THAT ADAM IS UP, AND HE IS UNABLE TO STOP ADAM FROM COLLIDING WITH HIM! BOTH ARE LETTING THEIR FISTS FLY AS THEY HEAD FOR THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE! THAT FLAMING STRAP IS HITTING BOTH MEN AT THE MOMENT BUT NEITHER REALLY SEEMS TO BE PAYING IT MUCH ATTENTION! THEY JUST WANT TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF EACH OTHER AT THE MOMENT AND THEY BOTH SLAM INTO THE SECOND CORNER! BOTH MEN SLAM THEIR HANDS DOWN ON IT AT VIRTUALLY THE SAME TIME SENDING TWO BURST OF FLAMES INTO THE AIR!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM GRABS IMPACT BY THE HAIR AND ATTEMPTS TO THROW HIS FACE INTO THE FIRE, BUT IMPACT IS ABLE TO RAKE ADAM ACROSS THE FACE AND HE KICKS HIM RIGHT IN THE KNEE! ADAM IS DOWN TO ONE LEG, AND IMPACT LOOKS FOR A MODIFIED CURB STOMP RIGHT THERE IN THE CORNER, BUT ADAM DUCKS AND ROLLS, AND SLIPS ONTO THE APRON! IMPACT REACHES BETWEEN THE ROPES TO GRAB ADAM, BUT ADAM CATCHES HIM WITH A KNEE AND THERE’S A SUNSET FLIP!
Eve: NO PINS IN THIS MATCH BUT ADAM QUICKLY GETS UP AND DIVES FOR THE THIRD CORNER! HE TOUCHES THE THIRD TURNBUCKLE BUT IMPACT IS RIGHT THERE! HE ALSO GETS THE THIRD AND NOW IT’S GOING TO BE A FUCKING BATTLE TO SEE WHO CAN GET TO THE LAST CORNER! BOTH OF THEM HAVE TOUCHED THREE TURNBUCKLES, AND WHOEVER TOUCHES THE FOURTH ONE WILL WIN!
Deadprez: THIS HAS TURNED INTO AN ALL OUT BRAWL AS BOTH MEN ARE HEADING FOR THE FOURTH AND FINAL TURNBUCKLE! ADAM IS PUNCHING IMPACT! IMPACT IS WAILING AWAY ON ADAM! ADAM FORCES IMPACT AGAINST THE ROPES, BUT IMPACT QUICKLY REVERSES! THEY EXCHANGE REVERSALS AND BOTH ARE WITHIN AN ARM’S REACH OF THE TURNBUCKLE! IMPACT REACHES FOR IT BUT ADAM MANAGES TO KICK HIM IN THE HAND! IMPACT BRUTALLY BURNED HIS HANDS EARLIER IN THE MATCH BY GRABBING THE FLAMING STRAP AND ADAM KICKS HIM AGAIN! HE FORCES IMPACT TO THE GROUND AND HE FUCKING STOMPS ON IMPACT’S HAND!!!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM LUCAS GRABS IMPACT UP AND HE HOISTS HIM UP IN THE POWERBOMB POSITION! JUST TOUCH THE FUCKING TURNBUCKLE, ADAM! YOU DON’T NEED TO DO ALL THIS!
Eve: YES HE DOES, GAVIN! TWICE IMPACT HAS FOUND A WAY TO KEEP ADAM LUCAS FROM WINNING THIS PORTION OF THE MATCH!
Deadprez: THERE’S ‘THE NEXT LEVEL’!!! ADAM TRANSITIONS THE POP-UP POWERBOMB INTO THE RKO AND IMPACT IS OUT! ADAM FALLS AGAINST THE FOURTH AND FINAL TURNBUCKLE AND SLAMS HIS HAND DOWN ON IT!!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE CONQUEROR OF THE SECOND DEGREE OF HELL… ADAM LUCAS!!!!
(The flaming strap is quickly extinguished as the flames from the sensors also retreat. The fans seem a little sad about this, but nevertheless, both competitors look pretty worse for the war. Adam rips the strap from his wrists and tosses it to the side, taking deep breaths and trying to get his head together for what’s to come next. The medic is checking on Impact, paying close attention to the Hall of Famer’s hands. Impact’s hands are blistered up and badly burned, but he doesn’t seem to want anyone around him. He shoves the medic away and rolls onto the apron, pulling the strap off his wrist. He just wants to spend the next few seconds recovering because the final degree of Hell is what will decide this match.)
Deadprez: I’ve seen a lot of nasty injuries in my day, but Impact’s hands might be among the worst of them. I have no idea how he is going to manage to get through this next bit of the match.
Gavin Kirkland: We see our Elitists defy the odds and change our perception of reality every single week. If there is anyone who can find a way to win despite being badly hurt, it is Impact.
(Again, commentary begins to briefly recap everything, and the camera focuses on both Adam and Impact. With both competitors as recovered as they can be, the referee makes the decision that it is time to start the final portion of the match. The attention is back on Gina, who seems to be enjoying the fact she has a lot to do in this match.)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE THIRD AND DECIDING DEGREE OF HELL IS KNOWN AS ‘THE FLAYED MAN’! THE ONLY WAY TO WIN IS TO SET YOUR OPPONENT ON FIRE! WHOEVER ACCOMPLISHES THAT FIRST WILL BE DECLARED THE WINNER OF THE DEGREE AND OF THE MATCH ITSELF!
Eve: :lupe: It’s going to get bad. It’s going to get real bad.
Gavin Kirkland: LET’S FUCKING GO! WOOOOOOOOOOO! SHOWDOWN! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE!
(There is obvious sarcasm in Gavin’s voice and rightfully so. There hasn’t been much actual wrestling in this. Just two men put into a hellacious situation and given the right to kill each other. Now, it’s all about to come to it’s brutal conclusion.)
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Eve: :lupe: Well, after the absolute war that was the ‘Lashes of Brimstone’ portion of this match, I have no idea what to even expect right now. We’re tied, one-one, so whoever can set their opponent on fire first will be declared the winner.
Deadprez: Neither Impact nor Adam have moved much since the last portion ended. Adam is still sitting in the corner, where he’s been since touching that final turnbuckle, and Impact has scooted himself onto the apron. Both men are covered in serious burns and now with weapons scattered around the ring, I have a feeling this is about to turn into a glorified deathmatch. Who knows if we will even have a winner?
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t know guys, both look in the ring. Both men are getting back to their feet because they know there has to be a winner. Impact stands on the apron and Adam Lucas is in the corner. Both of them have their eyes locked on the other man, and I’m not even going to try and guess what is going through their respective minds right now.
Eve: HERE WE GO! ADAM LUCAS CUTS IMPACT OFF AS IMP WAS GETTING BACK INTO THE RING! ADAM WITH THOSE HAMMER-LIKE SHOTS TO THE BACK TAKE IMPACT TO THE MAT! ADAM SWITCHES TO KICKS AND STOMPS, NOT WANTING TO LET UP, NOT EVEN FOR A SECOND! IMPACT HAS A STUPID AMOUNT OF STAMINA, AND CAN COME BACK FROM ALMOST ANYTHING, AND ADAM KNOWS HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO STAY ON OFFENSE RIGHT NOW!
Deadprez: ADAM PULLS IMP UP BY THE HAIR AND DRAGS HIM TO THE CENTER OF THE RING! ADAMS SCANS THE RING, LOOKING FOR A WEAPON, AND HE SETTLES ON THE COOKIE SHEET HE THREW INTO THE RING EARLIER! TAME WHEN YOU CONSIDER SOME OTHER STUFF WE’VE SEEN BUT IT’S EFFECTIVE! ADAM SLAMS THAT METAL COOKIE SHEET DOWN ON TOP OF IMPACT’S SKULL! HE DOES IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL HE BENDS THAT THING IN HALF!
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM DROPS THE COOKIE SHEET AND HE MOTIONS FOR THE FANS TO MAKE SOME NOISE! THEY WANT TO SEE EVEN MORE CARNAGE IN THIS MATCH AND ADAM GIVES THEM WHAT THEY WANT! HE RETRIEVES THE CHEESE GRATER AND HOLDS IT UP, AND THE FANS ROAR IN APPROVAL! ADAM DROPS DOWN TO THE MAT, WRAPS IMP UP IN A HEADLOCK, AND HE SLAMS THE CHEESE GRATER INTO THE TOP OF IMPACT’S HEAD!
Eve: ADAM HITS IMP A FEW MORE TIMES BEFORE HE GIVES THE FANS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT! HE SCRAPES THE CHEESE GRATER ACROSS IMPACT’S FOREHEAD, RIPPING AT THE BURNT FLESH, AND SENDING BLOOD CASCADING DOWN THE NINE-TIME CHAMPION’S FACE!
Deadprez: ADAM REMAINS FOCUSED ON PUNISHING IMPACT AND HE CONTINUES TO GRIND THAT CHEESE GRATER BACK AND FORTH ACROSS IMP’S FACE! HE DOESN’T SEE THAT IMPACT IS USING HIS FREE HAND TO REACH AROUND HIM AND TRY TO FIND A WEAPON!
Gavin Kirkland: The hatchet is the weapon closet to Impact… :lupe:
Eve: :lupe: It would be an absolute disaster for Adam Lucas if Impact were to get his hands on that hatchet but it seems like that is EXACTLY what Impact is going for!
Deadprez: HE’S GOT THE HATCHET AND HE JUST SWUNG IT BEHIND HIM! HE CONNECTED WITH ADAM’S SIDE AND ADAM CRUMPLES UP INTO THE FETAL POSITION! HOLY SHIT HE JUST GOT HIT WITH A FUCKING HATCHET WHILE IN THE PROCESS OF SLICING UP IMPACT’S FOREHEAD!!!!
Eve: IMPACT DRAGS HIMSELF ONTO ALL FOURS AND TAKES ANOTHER WILD HACK AT ADAM! ADAM IS STRUCK ON THE LEG THIS TIME AND IMPACT HACKS AT HIM AGAIN! HE GETS ADAM IN THE BACK, AND BLOOD IS POURING FROM THAT WOUND! IMPACT IS BACK TO HIS FEET NOW AND HE IS GOING TO GO FOR THE KILLING BLOW! HE AIMS THE HATCHET AT ADAM’S HEAD AND BRINGS IT DOWN BUT ADAM IS ABLE TO GET HIS ARMS UP! HE STOPS IMPACT FROM SLAMMING THE HATCHET INTO HIS SKULL BUT HIS ARM IS GUSHING BLOOD NOW!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT WRAPS THE HANDLE OF THE HATCHET AROUND ADAM’S NECK AND PULLS HIM INTO A CHOKE! IMPACT IS STRANGELING ADAM LUCAS WITH THE HATCHET NOW AND ADAM IS TRYING TO BREAK FREE! HE IS KICKING AND FLAILING BUT IT ISN’T DOING HIM ANY GOOD! IMPACT IS THE ONE IN CONTROL AND HE IS MAKING GOOD ON HIS VOW TO PUT AWAY ADAM LUCAS FOR GOOD! IMP FALLS BACK, WRAPPING HIS LEGS AROUND ADAM’S WAIST, AND I THINK ADAM LUCAS IS DONE FOR, GUYS! THIS IS IT!
Deadprez: IMPACT KEEPS APPLYING THE PRESSURE AND WE CAN SEE THE LIFE DRAIN FROM ADAM!!! HE’S GIVING UP THE FIGHT! HE HAS STOPPED KICKING AND THRASHING ABOUT! HE IS BARELY MOVING! IMPACT CONTINUES TO HANG ON TO THE CHOKE, NOT ABOUT TO RELEASE IT UNTIL HE IS SURE ADAM LUCAS IS UNCONSCIOUS! ADAM APPEARS TO GO LIMP AND IMPACT FINALLY RELEASES HIM! HE TOSSES ADAM’S UNMOVING BODY OFF OF HIM AND GETS TO HIS FEET!
Eve: The amount of blood that is still pouring from that open wound on Adam’s arm concerns me :lupe:.
Gavin Kirkland: :wtf: What concerns me is that we may have just seen someone strangled to death in that ring.
Deadprez: The sad part about all of this is that the referee’s hands are completely tied. He can’t do anything about the condition of Adam Lucas because the only way to win is to set your opponent on fire. Impact could technically just torture Adam for however long he wants, and that’s just the way it is.
Gavin Kirkland: WE WRESTLE!!! :blessed:
Eve: :mjlol:
Deadprez: Mercifully, I think Impact wants to go ahead and end this match too. His face is a literal crimson mask right now but he has completely rendered Adam Lucas helpless. Adam isn’t moving at all and as sad as it is that I have to say this, I hope Impact is looking for a lighter right now.
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe: He didn’t get a lighter, Deadprez….
Deadprez: Oh come on! Adam is done for, Impact! Just end the match!
Eve: Impact has something far more sinister in mind because he has grabbed the pizza cutter! He drops down beside Adam and pulls him up by the hair! Impact slices the pizza cutter right across Adam’s forehead! Blood begins to pour down Adam’s face now and Impact slices him again! He makes two perfect vertical cuts right across Adam’s forehead and he follows up with two perfect horizontal lines!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh man, Impact just dipped his finger in Adam Lucas’ blood and drew three X’s right down the middle of those lines.
Deadprez: He literally just turned Adam’s forehead into a fucking tic tac toe board. I’ve truly seen it all.
Eve: Impact carelessly lets Adam’s head fall to the mat and he grabs the arm! There’s still a bit of blood coming from the hatchet wound but Impact’s focus is on the fingers! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! HE JUST USED THE PIZZA CUTTER TO SLICE ADAM BETWEEN THE THUMB AND POINTER FINGER!
Gavin Kirkland: :damn: IMPACT IS CUTTING OPEN ALL THE SKIN BETWEEN ALL OF ADAM’S FINGERS!!! THAT’S FUCKING GRUESOME!
Deadprez: IMPACT SWITCHES TO THE OTHER HAND AND ADAM GETS SLICED BETWEEN ALL OF HIS FINGERS ONCE AGAIN! HE IS BLEEDING FROM BOTH HANDS NOW AND IMPACT FINALLY DROPS THAT FUCKING PIZZA CUTTER! HE GOES OVER TO THE CORNER AND GRABS THE BLACK BAG AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT’S IN THAT!
Eve: IMPACT RIPS AT THE TIES OF THE BAG AND HE DUMPS THE CONTENTS INTO THE RING! THOUSANDS OF THUMBTACKS SPILL ONTO THE MAT AND IMPACT KEEPS THE BAG WITH HIM! HE BRINGS THE BAG TO ADAM AND PLACES IT OVER HIS HEAD!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh nah. He is gunna execute this man… isn’t he?!
Eve: This doesn’t look good. It doesn’t look good at all. I can’t even fucking begin to know what is going through Impact’s fucked up head right now.
Deadprez: He has bad intentions. That’s really all there is to it. He is bringing Adam to the corner and climbs up on the top rope! He drags a barely conscious Adam up the second rope and Impact positions him for ‘Gunsmoke’!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT TAKES FLIGHT! THE PILEDRIVER SENDS ADAM LUCAS HEAD FIRST INTO THE PILE OF THUMBTACKS! IMPACT TOSSES ADAM’S BODY OFF HIM AND HE GOES TO GATHER UP SUPPLIES! IMPACT HAS THE LIGHTER FLUID! HE RIPS THE TOP OFF AND DOUSES THE BLACK BAG THAT COVERS ADAM’S HEAD WITH IT! HE RETRIEVES THE HATCHET AND DUMPS THE REMAINING LIGHTER FLUID ON IT! IMPACT USES THE LIGHTER TO LIGHT THE HATCHET ON FIRE AND HE HOLDS IT HIGH IN THE AIR!
Eve: This is going way too far. I’m not going to watch this. Adam Lucas doesn’t deserve to have his career ended at all, let alone like this.
Deadprez: IMPACT GOES TO BRING DOWN THE HATCHET DOWN ON ADAM LUCAS!!!!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
???: (off-mic) STOP! STOP! PLEASE STOP!
Gavin Kirkland: AHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! LEXI JUST THREW HERSELF INTO THE RING AND ON TOP OF ADAM! SHE RAISES HER HANDS UP TO PROTECT HERSELF FROM THE FLAMING HATCHET!!!! NOT THIS WAY! NOT MADE OVER LEXI WHO NO LONGER LOOKS LIKE A 12-YEAR OLD PREPUBESCENT BOY!!!!
Deadprez: IMPACT STOPS THE HATCHET RIGHT BEFORE IT COLLIDES IT WITH LEXI CHAMBERS!
Impact: (off-mic) WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?
Eve: IMPACT IS ABSOLUTELY OUTRAGED OVER THE TURN OF EVENTS AS A SHAKING LEXI LOOKS UP AT HIM WITH TEARS IN HER EYES!
Lexi: (off-mic) YOU CAN’T DO THIS! PLEASE! HE HAS A FIANCEE! HE HAS A BRIGHT FUTURE AHEAD OF HIM! I CAN’T BEAR TO SEE THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE ADAM IN PAIN!
Impact: (off-mic) I DO NOT GIVE A SINGLE SOLITARY FUCK ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT THAT PIECE OF SHIT! GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE RING BEFORE I SET YOU ON FIRE!
Gavin Kirkland: 🤦♂️ I’m going to have to get Lexi, aren’t I? She is shaking right now, clutching what looks like a white towel in her hands, and there are tears in her eyes.
Eve: You’re not going anywhere near the ring, and I say that not just for Lexi’s protection, from you, but for your own protection from Impact. He’s fucking livid right now. I can’t believe she just came running down to the ring.
Deadprez: Well considering a few seconds ago you were practically in tears over the thought of Impact decapitating Adam Lucas, this is probably a relief for you.
Eve: I don’t know how I feel because it’s obvious Lexi has ulterior motives. We all know she has a bit of a screw loose, and something tells me she is only saving Adam to keep Bethany from being heartbroken :lupe:.
(Inside the ring, Lexi has removed the black bag from Adam’s head and shoved him away from the scene. She is on her knees, holding up her hands, and showing Impact she wants to throw in the towel for Adam.)
Lexi: (off-mic) He’s had enough! You’ve done enough! There is nothing more to do! I am going to throw in the towel!
Deadprez: WHAT??
Eve: LEXI HAS NO RIGHT TO DO THAT! SHE’S NOT ADAM’S MANAGER, PARTNER, OR SIGNIFICANT OTHER!
(Impact looks over at the referee, who seems just as confused as everyone else when it comes to this turn of events.)
Referee: (off-mic) :lupe: I’m not really sure you have any right to do that.
Lexi: (off-mic) So it’s okay for him to just try and end Adam’s career? That’s what was about to happen and I’m not about to let things go down like that.
Impact: (off-mic) This is fucking ridiculous.
Deadprez: THE REFEREE IS ARGUING WITH LEXI AND IMPACT AND EVERYONE IS DISTRACTED! THEY DON’T SEE THAT ADAM LUCAS IS FINALLY COMING AROUND! THE FANS ARE SCREAMING AS ‘THE NEXT LEVEL’ IS SITTING UP AND TRYING TO SHAKE THE COBWEBS OUT! HE FOCUSES ON WHAT IS GOING DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING AND LOOK AT THE CONFUSION THAT’S ON HIS FACE!
Eve: ADAM USES THE ROPES TO PULL HIMSELF UP AND HE STAGGERS TOWARDS IMPACT! LEXI’S HANDS SHOOT TO HER MOUTH AND THAT PROMPTS IMPACT TO TURN AROUND! HE’S GREETED WITH A DISCUS PUNCH THAT KNOCKS HIM TO THE MAT AND SENDS THE FLAMING HATCHET FLYING OUT OF THE RING!
Gavin Kirkland: OH SHIT! THANK GAWD THAT DIDN’T LAND IN THE CROWD!
Adam Lucas: (off-mic) WHAT ARE YOU DOING? GET OUT OF THE RING RIGHT NOW!
(A huge smile breaks out across Lexi’s face and she shoves past the referee and jumps into Adam’s battered arms! She hugs him tightly, painting one of the most awkward and uncomfortable pictures ever in EAW history.)
Lexi: (off-mic) YOU’RE OKAY! YOU’RE OKAY! BETHANY IS GOING TO BE SO HAPPY THAT I SAVED YOU!
Adam Lucas: (off-mic) :roman: Oh nah.
Gavin Kirkland: ADAM JUST DROPPED SEXY LEXI LIKE A BAD HABIT AND HE TURNS HIS ATTENTION BACK TO IMPACT!
Eve: THE COOKING SPRAY! THE COOKING SPRAY! IMPACT JUST SPRAYED THE PAM IN ADAM’S FACE! ADAM IS BLINDED BY THE COOKING SPRAY AND IMPACT HAS THE LIGHTER! HE FLICKS IT OPEN AND USES THE COOKING SPRAY AS A BLOWTORCH!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: PERSEPHONE JUST TWEETED ME AND SAID SHE SAW THIS SAME EXACT THING HAPPEN ON THE ID CHANNEL’S ‘HOME ALONE’ SERIES… O. She also just sent me a DM saying she was aroused…
Deadprez: FUCK THAT! ADAM LUCAS MANAGED TO TURN HIS HEAD BUT HE DIDN’T GET HIS ARMS UP IN TIME! THE SIDE OF HIS FACE IS ON FIRE AND HE DROPS TO THE MAT AND BEGINS TO ROLL AROUND! THIS MATCH IS DONE! IT’S FUCKING OVER!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gina Romano: THE CONQUEROR OF THE THIRD DEGREE OF HELL AND THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH… IMPACT!!!!
(Impact’s music begins to blast across the PA system as the second referee from earlier and the medics rush into the ring! They blast Adam with the fire extinguisher and begin checking on him, as Lexi starts to cry in the ring. Another medic has gone to Impact to look him over, but Impact is just truly disgusted by everything that went down at the end of the match.)
Deadprez: This is hands down one of the wildest, craziest, and weirdest matches I have ever called in my career. Impact has won the Three Degrees of Hell Match, but who fucking knows what condition Adam Lucas is in now after taking that makeshift blowtorch to the face.
Eve: The appearance by Lexi is puzzling, and I’m sure there will be consequences for her actions. But let’s not take away from the fact that Impact won this match and has set himself up nicely heading into Grand Rampage and beyond.
Gavin Kirkland: There’s really nothing else I can possibly add to what we just witnessed. Normally, I don’t mind going back and rewatching matches, but I’m not sure if I want to rewatch this one. The whole business with the flaming hatchet could have gone down so differently if Lexi hadn’t come to the ring, but in the end, she still couldn’t stop Impact from setting Adam Lucas on fire.
(The crowd is a bit subdued as Adam Lucas continues to be attended too. Impact is out of the ring and looked down at his hands. They are blistered with the skin already starting to peel and hang, and he just shakes his head. For someone who has nothing to prove given their resume, Impact is always the first one to step up and sacrifice himself if it means winning a big time match. And that’s what this was. It was a big-time match, with potential big time stakes, and he got the victory.)
(The camera takes another shot at the victorious Elitist before the scene fades to commercial.)
(Commercial break for life preservers featuring Ronan Malosi, not that he enjoys being around bodies of water or anything.)
(An ad for JOIN US AS YOU ARE INVITED to the FUNERAL SERVICES of RONAN MALOSI ON THE NEXT SHOWDOWN!)
(The scene switches to the final match graphic of the night.)
https://i.ibb.co/TPrcbtr/FF4WAY.png
(The camera pans to ringside when suddenly the Towering Inferno begins to lower.)
Deadprez: And here we go, the Main Event of the evening and it is the Towering Inferno! The structure is lowering right now.
Eve: It’s ominous and dangerous, a structure we have never seen before.
Gavin Kirkland: We have seen people getting burned the last two nights, but this? This is ridiculous! Looks like Gina Romano is ready to make the introductions!
(The camera shows Gina Romano standing ringside as the TRIPLE CAGE is lowered.
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENETLEMEN…. THIS IS THE MAIN EVENT OF DIA DEL DIABLO!
(The crowd roars in anticipation.)
Gina Romano: In just a few moments all four participants will be introduced, they will then climb the ladders up to the top of the three-level cage, once inside the doors will close. There are weapons scattered throughout the cage but cannot be released until someone presses the release lever! Once inside the towering inferno, the surrounding cage will be set on fire! After the first ten minutes, the trap door will open, then the first three to get through the trap door will advance to the second cage; the last person remaining will be eliminated. They will wrestle for ten minutes until the final trap door opens, the first two in the third cell will advance and the last will be eliminated, then they will fight to the finish where pinfall and submission do count. The last person remaining is the winner and the ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!
CROWD: EAW!!!! EAW!!!! EAW!!!! EAW!!!!!
(Suddenly “Se7en Rings” by Ariana Grande starts to play throughout the arena as the crowd rains boos down on the beautiful Veena Adam who slowly walks out decked in fire patterns on her wrestling gear, her hair pulled back in a high ponytail as she stands there looking at the sold out Alamodome…)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST FROM GREENWICH, CONNECTICUT! WEIGHING IN AT 121 POUNDS! SHE IS THE PRINCESS OF PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING! VEENA ADAMS!!!!
(The boos continue as she makes her way toward the monstrous Towering Inferno, her eyes tell the story, looking on glaring at the structure.)
Deadprez: This is Veena Adams first Answers World Championship match and I believe her first brand FPV Main Event. She has always had the talent, the charisma, and the looks, all she needed to do was put it all together and I’m gonna be honest guys, losing in the first round of the Empress of Elite tournament was a fluke in her eyes and it has lit a spark under this young woman’s ass and she has been, pardon the pun, on fire since.
Eve: She really has. Look, Veena is not popular, you love to hate her, she is a bitch, we all know that, but you cannot deny what skills she brings to the ring, and I am telling you right now, many think she is an underdog in this? Honestly, this could be her time, because this season we are seeing a different Veena Adams, and this is her moment to break it open and turn Showdown on its knees!
Gavin Kirkland: With all the Kweens that have wrestled tonight, she is the one and I am calling it right now! Much as I love TLA, Veena Adams…. ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!
(Veena continues to the ladder she is supposed to climb to the far end of the cage. Taking off her leather jacket, she places one foot on the rung and waits as her music fades and is replaced by ‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics, Annie Lennox & Dave Stewart as the crowd continues to boo. Harper Lee slowly walks out wearing all purple and black, the Specialists Championship around her waist.)
Gina Romano: THE SECOND ENTRANT HAILS FROM CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA! WEIGHING IN AT 118 POUNDS! THE EAW SPECIALISTS CHAMPION….. CAPTAIN HARPER….. SHE IS HARPER LEE!!!!!
(The boos continue as Harper smiles walking toward the structure, she looks over at Veena who gives her the stink face, as Harper reaches her ladder and stands there looking straight up 40 feet to the top.)
Eve: Harper Lee is oozing confidence right now; she has been unstoppable since becoming the Specialists Champion and could you imagine if she becomes a dual champion one week before having to defend her title at Reckless Wiring?
Deadprez: We would never hear the end of it, but if there is ONE person in this match that could pull it off, it’s Harper. She is sneaky, determined and most importantly in the head of the World Champion after the last Showdown.
Gavin Kirkland: Soccer Mom has talent, no question about it, I saw her pulling up in the caravan earlier today when getting to the arena and she already had spray painted on her back window DUAL CHAMPION.
(Harper stands by the ladder as her music fades and it is replaced with ‘ULTRAnumb (Exterminated Remix)’ by Blue Stahli as the crowd explodes in cheers! They start chanting her name as Cameron Ella Ava walks out and points to the Texas crowd….)
Gina Romano: THE THIRD PARTICIPANT HAILS FROM LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA! WEIGHING IN AT 140 POUNDS…. THE GODDESS…. CAMERON ELLA AVA!
(She begins to walk toward the ring, high fiving the fans as they all continue to cheer, keeping her eyes on the Towering Inferno and then on Veena Adams who locks eyes with her.)
Deadprez: Former Answers World Champion that wants to get back to holding the gold and this is her chance now against a friend and former tag team partner in TLA and of course her rival with Veena Adams will play a part in this!
Eve: Cameron Ella Ava is one of the favorites in this match. She has the experience, the knowledge and the skills to make it all the way. She definitely has an advantage and knowing that it is every competitor for themselves will definitely add a wrinkle to this match.
Gavin Kirkland: MILF looks absolutely amazing and she does have a great chance, but I think Veena Adams may have other plans!
(Cameron gets to her ladder, making sure it is steady before taking off her entrance gear as well, ready to climb into the monstrosity of the Towering Inferno. So many thoughts running through her head when the music fades and the crowd roars as ‘Ambitionz az a Ridah’ by Tupac starts to play throughout the arena. TLA rides out on the white horse from the beginning of the show intro, looking around wearing his black skull mask and dressed in all white as the crowd takes out their Mexican Flags and chant….)
Crowd: TLA!!!! TLA!!!! TLA!!!! TLA!!!! TLA!!!!
Gina Romano: THE FINAL ENTRY! HE HAILS FROM TLAXCALA, MEXICO! WEIGHING IN AT 210 POUNDS! HE IS THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION….. LA PANTERA SEXUAL….. T……L……A!!!!!!!
(The crowd in unison screams TLA with Gina Romano…..)
Crowd: T……L……A!!!!!!!
(The horse starts to ride down to the ring as TLA can be seen looking up at the Towering Inferno, the Answers World Championship over his shoulder, glaring at the three women waiting for him….)
Deadprez: TLA defeated a woman we didn’t think was ever going to be bested, that is how good she is in Kassidy Heart and we all saw what happened earlier tonight with Kassidy and Ronan. Now TLA walks into the Towering Inferno in his first title defense, against three hungry women that will do anything to get that gold around his waist!
Eve: Remember what many wrestlers say, getting to the top of the mountain is one thing, staying there is another and what we have right now is TLA in what could be his first and last title defense in such an unpredictable match like this.
Gavin Kirkland: Hurricane Hawk was nuts when he came up with the concept of this match! TLA’s title reign is in a lot of trouble already!
(TLA gets to the ring, hopping off the horse and taking his mask off, half his face is painted like the Dia De Los Muertos as the crowd cheers. Looking around he nods to the fans and then walks to his ladder as all wrestlers are standing there ready to climb 40 feet to the very top of the tower. The referees are all on the bottom floor, one referee is placed inside the last level of the cage. Suddenly…..)
Deadprez: VEENA ADAMS IS QUICKLY CLIMBING THE LADDER FIRST AND HERE COMES HARPER LEE, CAMERON ELLA AVA AND TLA! LISTEN TO THE CROWD!
(The crowd is on their feet as all four wrestlers climb the ladder forty feet to the top of the tower! Veena Adams is there first, followed by Cameron Ella Ava and Harper Lee, TLA is coming in last and….)
Eve: VEENA ADAMS AND CAMERON ARE ATTACKING EACH OTHER AND THEY ARE NOT WAITING FOR THE MATCH TO BEGIN! THE DOOR OF THE CAGE CLOSES BEHIND TLA AS THERE IS AN OFFICIAL ON EACH SIDE OF THE LEVELS WITH THE TRAP DOOR LEVERS AND THE CAGE IS CLOSED!
(DING!!! DING!!! DING!!!)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN THE TOWERING INFERNO MATCH HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN!
(The fires start to crawl up the sides of the tower as they are lit up and suddenly the sides of the tower are engulfed in flames….)
Deadprez: VEENA AND CAMERON ARE TRYING TO RIP EACH OTHERS FACES OFF! THEY ARE ALL IN THE FIRST LEVEL OF THE CAGE AND HARPER LEE WASTED NO TIME ATTACKING TLA AS HE WALKED IN THE CAGE! THE TIMER IS ON AND WE HAVE TEN MINUTES BEFORE THE TRAP DOOR IS OPEN! THERE ARE WEAPONS HANGING ON THE WALLS OF THE CAGES! THEY CANNOT BE RELEASED UNTIL THE LEVER IS PULLED!
Eve: Harper drives TLA into the cage! We know that it will get really hot here in a few moments the longer the fire continues to rage on! Harper thrusts her shoulders into TLA and they are walking on steel! That floor is nothing but pure steel as Veena is trying to claw at Cameron with those long nails! Cameron though is trying to fight her off but Veena has her pinned against the wall of the cage, she reaches over for the lever…..
Gavin Kikrland: CAMERON SPINS AROUND AND BACK SUPLEX ON VEENA ADAMS! THAT STEEL IE RELENTLESS! MY KWEEN IS SCREAMING IN PAIN! CAMERON IS NOW STOMPING ON HER REPEATEDLY! OVER AND OVER! WHILE TLA IS HITTING BACK ON HARPER LEE! SOCCER MOM IS TAKING SOME BLOWS AND SHE BACKS UP TO CAMERON…. ANOTHER BACKDROP AND CAMERON KIPS UP AND IS FACE TO FACE WITH TLA!
(The crowd roars, they watch as TLA and Cameron stand nose to nose, looking out as the two fan favorites start to pummel at each other….)
Deadprez: THEY ARE BEATING THE HELL OUT OF ONE ANOTHER! CAMERON AND TLA ARE LIKE ALI AND FRAZIER! THEY ARE PUNCHING EACH OTHER HARD NOT HOLDING BACK ANY AND WAIT…..
Eve: HARPER LEE AND VEENA ADAMS ATTACK TLA AND CAMERON! THEY WASTED NO TIME IN BREAKING THIS UP AND LOOK AT VEENA! SHE REACHES OVER AND PULLS THE LEVER!
(ALARM SOUNDS)
Deadprez: THE LEVER IS PULLED AND THE WEAPONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE! VEENA IS GRABBING A NOOSE! SHE HAS A NOOSE THAT WAS HANGING FROM THE WALL AND WRAPS IT AROUND THE NECK OF CAMERON! VEENA IS TRYING TO SUFFOCATE AND CHOKE HER OUT WITH THE NOOSE! CAMERON IS FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE AND LOOK AT THE SADISTIC LOOK ON VEENA!
(Veena stands over Cameron, choking her out as Harper whips TLA into the cage and charges in with a high knee, crumbling to the ground as the crowd boos….)
Gavin Kikrland: Soccer mom is pulling… she is pulling out…. A CHIMNEY FIRE POKER! Look at the point and she is bashing TLA WITH IT ALREADY! HE IS TRYING TO COVER UP BUT BOTH HARPER AND VEENA ADAMS ARE ASSAULTING CAMERON AND TLA! MY KWEEN AND SOCCER MOM!
Eve: TLA CAN;T DO MUCH MORE! HE IS TRYING SO HARD BUT THOSE VICIOUS HITS ARE BRUISING HIS ARM! SHE COULD END UP BREAKING IT! HARPER NOW DRIVING THE POKER INTO THE NECK OF TLA! SHE IS ACTUALLY TRYING TO STAB HIM!
Deadprez: LOOK AT CAMERON! SHE IS TURNING BLUE! VEENA HAS ALMOST CHOKED HER UNCONSCIOUS BUT TLA….. HE IS WEDGING HIS LEGS BETWEEN HIM AND HARPER, PUSHING LEE OFF AND SHE BARRELS INTO VEENA BREAKING UP THE CHOKE! BOTH WOMEN TUMBLE OVER AND CAMERON IS SAVED GASPING FOR AIR!
(Cameron tries to get her composure, picking herself up slowly as Veena scrambles to get back to her feet, Harper is already up and TLA holding his arm is already hurting but he picks up the poker that Harper had already and he waits as Harper gets up….)
Eve: TLA SWINGS FOR THE FENCES AND HARPER DUCKS BEFORE HER HEAD WAS COMPELTELY CUT OFF, HARPER RUNS AT TLA, BUT HE SWINGS AROUND AND BACKHANDS HER WITH THE FIRE POKER TO HER SIDE, BENDING OVER AND TLA….
WHACK!
WHACK!
WHACK!
Eve: TLA BASHING THAT FIRE POKER ALL OVER THE BACK OF HARPER LEE AND LEAVING WELTS! HARPER IS SCREAMING IN PAIN AS TLA THROWS THE FIRE POKER OUT AND HE PICKS UP HARPER LEE, WHIPPING HER INTO THE CAGE! BUT VEENA ADAMS COMES FROM BEHIND AND HITS A CLOTHESLINE! TLA STUMBLES FORWARD AND VEENA WITH A DDT! A DDT RIGHT INTO THE STEEL FLOOR AND TLA HOLDS HIS HEAD IN PAIN…. VEENA….
Deadprez: BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX BY CAMERON ON VEENA! VEENA TURNED RIGHT INTO THAT ONE AND SHE WAS LAID OUT! NO PINFALLS IN THE FIRST TWO LEVELS, ONLY WAY IS THROUGH THE TRAP DOOR AND WAIT… CAMERON GRABS THE WALL OF THE CELL AND SHE BURNS HERSELF!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh shit… the fire has heated those cage walls up! Cameron has realized, she grabs Veena and throws her into the cage…. NOOOO!!! VEENA SCREAMS IN PAIN AS IT BURNS HER BACK! HOW IN THE HELL ARE ANY OF THESE PEOPLE GOING TO SURVIVE THE NEXT TWO LEVELS IF THEY ARE ABOUT TO KILL EACH OTHER HERE!
(Veena drops to her knees, the back is burned up some, as Cameron looks at the last two weapons hanging on each of the four cage walls, she grabs one….)
Eve: Cameron reaches for one of the weapons…. It is a KANABO! It’s a bat that has many metal studs embedded on it and looks like a cricket stick! Cameron has that and she SWINGS ON VEENA HITTING HER ON THE EXPOSED BURNED BACK! SHE HITS HER AGAIN AND AGAIN! VEENA SCREAMS AS CAMERON …. NO! TLA GRABS HER FROM BEHIND, SPINS CAMERON INTO A RIPCORD ELBOW! CAMERON STAGGERS AND TLA GOES TO PICK UP THE KANABO… LOU THESZ PRESS ON TLA! CAMERON IS RAINING FISTS ON TLA AS HE TRIES TO COVER UP BUT LANDED HARD ON THE STEEL FLOOR!
Deadprez: RUNNING SHINING WIZARD BY HARPER LEE AND SHE TAKES CAMERON DOWN! ALL FOUR WRESTLERS ALREADY SPENT AND WE ARE STILL MINUTES AWAY FROM THE TRAP DOOR BEING OPEN! Veena though, she is crawling back up, glaring at the last weapon hanging on the cage and smiling! Look at the sadistic look on that young lady’s face! Reaching up, she grabs…..
Gavin Kirkland: A MEDIEVAL MACE! WHAT IN THE HELL IS A MACE DOING IN THIS MATCH! WHAT IS SHE DOING!? VEENA IS PRYING THE MACE THROUGH THE STEEL CAGE AND SHE IS PLACING IT IN THE FIRE! VEENA IS HEATING UP THAT MACE AND SOMEONE IS ABOUT TO HAVE A BAD DAY!
(The crowd screams in boos but is also chanting….)
Crowd: TWISTED BITCH!!!!! TWISTED BITCH!!!!! TWISTED BITCH!!!!
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen…. FIVE MINUTES HAVE PASSED! FIVE MORE MINUTES UNTIL THE FIRST TRAP DOOR OPENS!
(A huge smile goes across the face of Veena Adams as she puts it back into the cage and it is burning red, Harper is the first one up and Veena….)
Deadprez:SLAMS IT INTO HARPER’S MIDSECTION! THE MACE LEAVES A BURNED SCAR ON HER AS HARPER FALLS TO HER KNEES, SHE IS SCREAMING IN PAIN AS VEENA RUNS AT HER AND SLAMS THE MACE ON HER BACK! LEAVING ANOTHER BURN MARK AS HARPER AGAIN SCREAMS IN AGONY! VEENA IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL RIGHT NOW AND SHE TURNS HER ATTENTION TO NONE OTHER THAN CAMERON AS SHE TOO IS STRUGGLING TO GET TO HER FEET, VEENA RUNS AT HER…
Eve: TLA JUST SPEARED VEENA ALMOST OUT OF HER BOOTS! VEENA WAS FOLDED LIKE AN ACCORDIAN AND SHE IS ON THE STEEL FLOOR ROLLING AROUND HOLDING HER MIDSECTION! CAMERON NODS AND WAS JUST SAVED BY TLA WHO….
Gavin Kikrland: SWAG SHOT! HE JUST PIMP SLAPPED CAMERON ELLA AVA AND TURNED HER BACKWARDS! TLA GRABS CAMERON FROM BEHIND AND PELE KICK BY CAMERON ON TLA AND THAT STUNNED HIM! CAMERON PICKS HIM UP AGAIN AND THIS TIME “IN EXCELSIS” THE MOVE JAMIE O’HARA MADE FAMOUS! TLA GOES DOWN AND CAMERON ELLA AVA GRABS THE FIRE POKER, TURNING TO VEENA WHO IS GETTING BACK UP AND….NO! DID SHE JUST STAB VEENA!? NOOOOOOOOOOO!
(The crowd stands in silence and shock, it looks like Cameron stabbed Veena with the Fire poker and Veena is about to mercilessly bleed to death and die right in front of the entire Alamodome…..)
Deadprez: NO! VEENA CAUGHT THE POKER UNDER HER ARM! IT LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS STABBED BY IT, BUT SHE ACTUALLY CAUGHT IT AND KICKS CAMERON IN THE STOMACH! VEENA PULLS HER IN AND RIPCORD KNEE STRIKE! SHE JUST TOOK HER DOWN AND CAMERON IS ROLLING ALL OVER THE STEEL! VEENA THOUGH DOESN;T SEE HARPER LEE….
Eve: RAGNAROK ON THE STEEL AND VEENA HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT! HARPER LEE LOOKS A LITTLE WORSE FOR WEAR BUT SHE IS THE ONLY ONE STANDING RIGHT NOW!
(Harper Lee falls to her knees, she can’t keep herself upright as all four Elitists have already taken a beating. She slowly gets back up as TLA is up to his feet, she charges in but TLA….)
Gavin Kirkland: LEAP FROG BY TLA! HARPER FLOATED RIGHT PASSED HIM AND INTO THE CAGE THAT IS ALREADY HEATED UP, THESE FOUR ARE BEATING THE HELL OUT OF ONE ANOTHER AND HARPER TURNS RIGHT INTO A RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX THAT THROWS HER HALFWAY ACROSS THE RING! TLA GETS UP AND AND SEES CAMERON….
(Cameron is back up to her feet as TLA helps her, but she pushes away from him, he nods and whips her into the cage….)
Eve: CAMERON WITH THE REVERSAL! SHE THROWS TLA CHEST FIRST INTO THE HEATED CAGE AND HE SCREAMS, FALLING TO THE STEEL FLORO HOLDING HIS CHEST, CAMERON LOOKS UP AND JUMPS UP GRABBING THE STEEL FROM THE TOP OF THE CAGE…. SHE STARTS STOMPING ON TLA! HANGING FROM THE CEILING AND SHOWING ABSOLUTELY NO REMORSE! SHE IS STOMPING ON HIM REPEATEDLY! HE CANNOT WITHSTAND THIS ANY LONGER AND….
Deadprez: VEENA ADAMS HITS HER IN THE BACK WITH THE KANABO! CAMERON LETS GO AND CRUMBLES TO THE GROUND! VEENA IS DRIVING THE KANABO IN HER THROAT AND CAMERON IS TRYING HARD TO KICK OUT! SHE IS FIGHTING VEENA OFF BUT ADAMS IS HAVING NONE OF IT STRIKING CAMERON ON THE CHEST WITH THE KANABO! AGAIN AND AGAIN! SHE CONTINUOUSLY BEATING HER DOWN WITH THE KANABO AND SHE IS NOT STOPPING!
(Veena continues to beat her down with the Kanabo but stops and backs away some as Cameron starts coughing up blood, but that doesn;t stop her, slowly getting back to her feet, and Veean looks shocked….)
Cameron Ella Ava: (Off Mic) HIT ME HARDER BITCH!
(Veena’s eyes widen, before she swings and ….)
Eve: TLA JUST TOOK THE BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA FROM THAT KANABO! HE TOOK ALL OF THAT AND JUST CRUMBLED TO THE MAT AND SAVED CAMERON WHO LOOKS SHOCKED, AND IN EXCELSIS ON VEENA ADAMS! VEENA FALLS AND CAMERON NOW GETS UP AND HARPER LEE IS RIGHT THERE WITH THE DRAGON FIST! NO! CAMERON BLOCKS IT AND IN EXCELSIS ON HARPER LEE! SHE CRUMBLES TO THE FLOOR AS WELL, CAMERON NOW TURNS AND GRABS TLA, BACKS UP AND IN EXCELSIS…. NO! TLA BLOCKS IT AND LIFTS HER UP BUT CAMERON GRABS ON THE CEILING OF THE CAGE, SHE LANDS SEATED ON TLA…. HURRICARANA ON TLA AND HE FALLS TO THE FLOOR, CAMERON PICKS UP VEENA AND LIFTS HER UP FOR A SUPLEX…..
Gavin Kikrland: MY KWEEN GETS OUT OF IT! SHE ROLLS BEHIND CAMERON AND GOES TO LIFT HER, NO! SHE HANGS ON AND RUSHES VEENA RIGHT INTO THE WALLS OF STEEL! THE HOT STEEL AND VEENA IS SCREAMING IN PAIN! NOT HER! NOT HER PLEASE! BUT VEENA IS HANGING ON! SHE IS NOT LETTING GO AND….
(5…..4…..3…..2…..1…..)
(BUZZ!!!!!)
Gavin Kikrland: THE TRAP DOOR IS NOW OPEN THEY CAN START ESCAPING ONE BY ONE HERE! AND LOOK AT HARPER LEE! SHE AUTOMATICALLY OPENS THE TRAP DOOR AND SHE SLIDES OUT AND FALLS INTO THE SECOND CAGE!
Gina Romano: HARPER LEE IS IN THE SECOND CAGE!
(Harper lies there relieved and quickly rolls out of the way as TLA starts to make his way into the second cage, the fans are roaring in excitement while Veena and Cameron are beating the hell out of one another! TLA is trying to slide out….)
Eve: TLA IS DOING HIS ABSOLUTE BEST RIGHT NOW TO GET THROUGH THAT TRAP DOOR AND HE ALMOST HAS IT….TLA GETS THROUGH!!!!!
Gina Romano: TLA IS IN THE SECOND CAGE!
Eve: That means either Cameron Ella Ava or Veena Adams will be the first eliminated! Cameron is trying to get through! But Veena is like a Spider Monkey clinging on to her and she will not let go no matter how many times Cameron slams her into that hot cage! Cameron now is attempting to get into the second cage and Veena is still on her back! Cameron almost has it!
(As Cameron tries to get to the second cage, TLA tries to hop up and extend his hand to try and get her to the second level but Harper quickly tackles him down as he tries to help, unloading on TLA as he tries to defend himself….)
Deadprez: Cameron is to the trap door and she starts biting Cameron on the shoulder! CAM IS SCREAMING IN PAIN AS VEENA HAS DRAWN BLOOD AND CAMERON FLIPS VEENA OVER TRYING TO STOP HER……
Eve: ….. AND SHE JUST FLIPPED VEENA OVER INTO THE TRAP DOOR AND IT CLOSES! VEENA ADAMS HAS SURVIVED INTO THE SECOND CAGE AND CAMERON ELLA AVA HAS BEEN ELIMINATED THIS IS AN UPSET!
(Cameron looks shocked, dropping to her knees, eyes widened as she sees Veena land in the second cage as the trap door closes and she is stuck up in the first cage until the match is over! )
Gina Romano: VEENA ADAMS IS IN THE SECOND CAGE, THEREFORE CAMERON ELLA AVA IS THE FIRST TO BE ELIMINATED FROM THE TOWERING INFERNO!!!!!
(The crowd is stunned, many start to boo as they cannot believe what just happened, Cameron Ella Ava, the former Answers World Champion is the first one gone and she just sits there on her knees in complete shock as Veena is laughing with her bloody mouth as the second cage is on the way…)
Deadprez: CAMERON ELLA AVA IS GONE! TLA, VEENA ADAMS AND HARPER LEE ARE THE LAST THREE LEFT AND NOT A SOUL IN THIS ARENA WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT! IT WAS AN ACCIDENT! OUT OF INSTINCT CAMERON FLIPPED VEEN OVER AND SHE WENT RIGHT THROUGH THE TRAP DOOR! CAMERON IS NOW A SPECTATOR AND LOOK AT VEENA AND HARPER!
(Veena and Harper both look at one another and nod, making an alliance knowing that the biggest threat left in the match after Cameron was eliminated is TLA. he slowly gets up knowing there is a pack of hyenas waiting for him, slowly to his feet, he sees what is happening here and nods as Veena and Harper attack him….)
Eve: TLA IS GETTING MUGGED BY VEENA AND HARPER! ALL CAMERON CAN DO NOW IS WATCH AS THESE TWO WOMEN KNOW THAT IF THEY CAN TAKE OUT TLA, THE REST IS HISTORY AND IT IS ANYONE’S GAME! TLA IS TAKING A BEATING BUT HS IE FIGHTING BACK!
Crowd: TLA!!!!!!!!!!!!! TLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(The crowd is deafening chanting TLA’s name as Veena Adams and Harper now have a bigger cage to work with, TLA is on one knee as Harper and Veena are completely mauling him, as Harper backs up a little…. Kick to the face of TLA and Veena runs in…..)
Gavin Kirkland: DIVING KNEE BY MY KWEEN AND TLA IS DOWN! THESE TWO LADIES HAVE THE RIGHT IDEA AND THEY HIGH FIVE EACH OTHER THOUGH VEENA SHOULDN’T TRUST SOCCER MOM! TLA THOUGH IS ONE TOUGH HOMBRE, HE GETS UP SLOWLY, AND HARPER IS THERE, NO HE GRABS HARPER’S LEG, SWINGS IT AND IT HITS VEENA IN THE FACE! HE THEN PICKS UP HARPER AND SLAMS HER DOWN WITH A POP UP POWERBOMB BUT VEENA HAS THE WHERE IT ALL AND SHE PULLS THE LEVER!
(ALARM SOUNDS)
Eve: THE WEAPONS HAVE BEEN RELEASED! AND VEENA QUICKLY GRABS THE CAT O’ NINE TAILS WHIP AND SHE REACHES OUT INTO THE FLAMES LIGHTING IT ON FIRE! TURN AROUND TLA! TURN AROUND AND….
Deadprez: VEENA ADAMS WHIPS TLA WITH THE CAT O’ NINE TAILS! THE FLESH IS BEING RIPPED AND CAUTERIZED AT THE SAME TIME MY GAWD! TLA WRENCHES BACK SCREAMING AS VEENA WHIPS HIM AGAIN! HIS BACK IS BEING TORN UP AND ALL THE BLOOD THAT IS RUNNING DOWN, THE SKIN BEING BURNED OFF! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY SICKENING AND LOOK AT CAMERON!
(Cameron is screaming from the top cage, she can’t do anything about it, grabbing the mace….)
SLAM!!!!
SLAM!!!!!
SLAM!!!!!
Eve: CAMERON IS TRYING TO BREAK THE TRAP DOOR OPEN WITH THE MACE! SHE IS ALREADY ELIMINATED FROM THIS MATCH BUT IT DOESN’T MEAN SHE CAN’T INVOLVED BUT LOOK AT VEENA ADAMS!
(Veena glances up at Cameron and smiles at her screaming trying to break the trap door open. She then turns and whips TLA again….)
Eve: This…. This is too uncomfortable to watch! And here comes Harper Lee, she is reaching over, okay enough! WHO THE HELL PUT THESE WEAPONS INTO THE CAGE! SHE HAS A ROLL OF PIANO WIRE!
(Harper slowly unrolls the piano wire after recovering from the powerbomb, she can barely stand but unrols it and gets behind TLA choking him with the Piano Wire as Veena kicks him over and over in the chest, the swats the whip on him again….)
Gavin Kirkland: THESE TWO ARE GOING TO DESTROY OUR ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! THEY ARE WORKING TOGETHER AND THERE IS NO MAN THAT CAN SURVIVE THIS ONSLAUGHT! Is it bad that I think this is kinda kinky even with a soccer mom?
Eve: Gavin…. Shut up please.
Gina Romano: FIVE MINUTES REMAINING!
Deadprez: TLA CAN’T TAKE MUCH MORE! HE IS BEING CHOKED OUT AND LOSING CONSCIOUSNESS… WAIT… HARPER LETS GO OF THE CHOKE AND THERE IS BLOOD COMING FROM THE NECK OF TLA! HARPER LIFTS TLA UP AND HOLDS HIM AS VEENA SMIRKS, SHE DROPS THE WHIP AND REACHES OVER…. FOR THE BARBED WIRE BASEBALL BAT! TLA IS DONE! BY THE TIME THE TRAP DOOR OPENS THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT OF HIM!
(In the meantime, Cameron continues to try and bash the trap door open! Constantly hitting it with the mace over and over trying to break it open.)
Eve: Veena Adams is mauling TLA right now and she is looking to finish it right here, she swings….
Deadprez: TLA WAS ABLE TO DUCK OUT OF THE WAY AND VEENA DRIVES THE BAT INTO HARPER LEE! THE BARB WIRE RIPPING THROUGH HER ABDOMEN! HARPER LEE SEES THE BLOOD POURING OUT AND STARTS TO STUMBLE SOME, SHE CAN’T EVEN STAND UPRIGHT AS VEENA LOOKS SHOCKED, SHE TURNS AND SWINGS AT TLA AGAIN BUT HE GRABS HER BY THE WAISTLINE AND TIGHTS, THROWING HER CHEST FIRST INTO THE HOT STEEL WALL OF THE CAGE AS SHE STARTS TO SCREAM!
Eve: TLA IS BACK IN BUSINESS AND UNSNAPS THE LAST WEAPON AND IT IS A TEXAS SIZED BBQ BRISKET AND PORK SHOULDER MEAT FORK! LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT THING! THOSE TWO LONG PRONGS ARE HUGE AND VEENA TURNS, TLA IS DRIVING THE FORK IN VEENA’S FOREHEAD! SHE IS SCREAMING IN AGONY AS THE BLOOD STARTS TO POUR DOWN! TLA IS DRIVING THAT FORK MERCILESSLY INTO THE FLESH OF VEENA ADAMS AS HE GRINDS IT FURTHER AND FURTHER INTO HER SKIN!
(Harper Lee is acting like her guts are about to spill out of the cuts on her abdomen, she quickly turns and sees Veena getting mauled, running at TLA but he drops Veena…..)
Gavin Kirkland: AND THROWS THE FORK LIKE A SPEAR RIGHT AT HARPER LEE AND IT….. STICKS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
(Harper screams when she realizes that the for only grazed her cheek and she didn;t get stabbed in the face, relieved she takes a deep breath right….
Gavin Kikrland: AND SOCCER MOM TAKES AN AR-15 FOR HER TROUBLES AND THE LARIAT TURNS HER UPSIDE DOWN AS HARPER LEE FALLS FLAT ON HER FACE! THE CROWD IS GOING BALLISTIC AS TLA SCREAMS AND HOLDS HIS ARMS UP! HE GRABS THE CAT O’NINE TAILS AND NOW IT IS TLA’S TURN TO TAKE SOME HIDE…. YOU KNOW, THAT IS ONE HECK OF A TOY….
Eve: You are such a pig Gavin. BUT TLA HAS THE WHIP AND HE STARTS WHIPPING HARPER! HARPER IS TAKING IT ALL AS HE CONTINUES TO WHIP HER MERCILESSLY! SHE SCREAMS OVER AND OVER AND TLA LOOKING TO REALLY …… OOOOOOOH!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: VEENA ADAMS JUST THRUSTED THAT BARBED WIRE BAT RIGHT IN BETWEEN THE LEGS OF TLA! OMG TLA MAYBE SCARRED FOR LIFE AND THE BLOODY VEENA STANDS THERE, BARELY ABLE TO BALANCE!
(Harper is back up and she is bleeding, covered in it but smiles, thumbs up to Veena as they both nod and pick TLA up, they have him set up as Cameron is still trying to break the trapdoor open, this time she grabs the noose and tries to squeeze it through the cage….)
Deadprez: VEENA AND HARPER HAVE TLA DOWN THEY START TO KICK HIM AND HE TRIES TO COVER UP BUT AFTER BEING HIT IN THE GROIN WITH THE BAT WRAPPED IN BARBWIRE I DOUBT HE HAS ANY ENERGY LEFT! THOSE RAZOR SHARP WIRES CLUNG ON TO HIM HARD AND RIPPED HIS PANTS UP, NOT HARPER IS CHOKING HIM OUT WITH HER BARE HANDS AS VEENA DRIVES THE BARBED WIRE BAT INTO HIS HEAD.
Veena Adams: (Off Mic) That’s it… he’s finished right here!
Harper Lee: (Off Mic) Do your thing girl!
(Veena and Harper both nod to each other and then as Veena lifts the bat up….)
Eve: SHE TAKES A SWING AT HARPER LEE AND SHE WAS ABLE TO DUCK! HARPER GRABS THE PIANO WIRE AND VEENA SWINGS AGAIN THIS TIME TRAPPING THE BAT AND TWISTING IT OUT OF THE HANDS OF VEENA! IT FALLS AND THE CROWD IS SCREAMING AS BOTH LADIES START UNLOADING THE LUMBER ON EACH OTHER!
Gavin Kikrland: THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE EACH OTHER OUT NOW! TLA IS DOWN AND BOTH WOMEN ARE DOING THEIR BEST TO GET THE ADVANTAGE! IN JUST A FEW MOMENTS THE TRAP DOOR WILL OPEN AND THE LAST TWO REMAINING WILL WRESTLE TO THE BITTER END! THEY ARE ALMOST TO THE FINAL LEVEL AND VEENA LOOKS TO BE THERE! HARPER WANTS TO BE THERE! CAN TLA BE THERE!? I HATE WATCHING VEENA LIKE THIS!
(Both are still slugging it out as TLA gets back up to his feet, he sees them and runs….)
Eve: DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE AND HE TAKES BOTH WOMEN OUT! TLA IS KICKING THEM DOWN AS THEY TRY TO GET UP! BUT TLA IS RELENTLESS IN HIS PURSUIT! HE GRABS HARPER AND THROWS HER INTO THE CAGE! SHE BURNS AGAIN AND FALLS TO THE FLOOR! VEENA FROM BEHIND, NO! TLA WITH AN ELBOW TO HER ANDS SHE STUMBLES BACK…. HARPER THOUGH IS BACK UP AND VEENA CATCHES TLA FROM BEHIND WITH A BACK CRACKER! TLA IS IN TROUBLE AND VEENA GRABS THE PIANO WIRE!
Deadprez: SHE IS GOING TO CHOKE HIM OUT AND SHE’S WRAPPING IT AROUND HIS NECK! VEENA’S LOOK ON HER FACE SAYS IT ALL AND SHE IS CHOKING THE LIFE OUT OF HIM! WAIT A SECOND….

Gina Romano: THE TRAP DOOR IS NOW OPEN!
(Veena hears the buzzer and she continues to choke out TLA! Harper crawls to the trap door, she opens it trying to get through but Veena turns around and kicks her in the face….)

Gavin Kirkland: But… but what about Veena!? Harper Lee!? Wait! Harper is crawling out and veena is struggling! NOOOOOO! NOT MY KWEEN! SHE IS ABOUT TO BE HUNG! SHE CAN;T ESCAPE AND HARPER LEE…..
(Harper crawls through the trap door and falls to the mat….)
Gina Romano: HARPER LEE HAS GONE TO THE NEXT CAGE…. VEENA ADAMS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NOOOOOO!
(The crowd cheers as Cameron lets go of the noose and lies there satisfied that she was able to cost Veena the chance to become the Answers World Champion! Veena lies on the second floor of the cage catching her breath as the cage door closes and she realizes that she is no longer in the match. Veena screams and pounds the cage floor as Cameron laughs….)
Gavin Kikrland: HOW IS THAT EVEN LEGAL!? VEENA DAMS DESERVES MORE THAN THIS! VEENA ADAMS SHOULD BE IN THE LAST CAGE DAMN IT! SHE SHOULD BE!
Eve: She is gone and what matters is Harper Lee and TLA are the two finalists and now it is a fight to the finish, TLA is up to his feet, he grabs Harper Lee and DRAGON FIST!

(Meanwhile Veena grabs the rope and climbs to the bottom of the first part of the cage, she starts trying to kick the trap door open and Cameron realizes this and tries to pry it open as will with the fire poker…)
Gavin Kirkland: ARE YOU ALL SEEING WHAT I AM SEEING IN THE FIRST LEVEL! VEENA ADAMS IS TRYING TO BREAK INTO THE FIRST CAGE AND CAMERON IS TRYING TO PRY IT OPEN! THEY WANT TO KILL EACH OTHER!
Deadprez: BUT IN THE THIRD LEVEL HARPER IS IN DISBELIEF! SHE CAN FATHOM HOW THE HELL TLA KICKED OUT! She picks him up and throws TLA against the turnbuckle, grabbing the next weapon, a Pastry Torch to make Creme Brulee!

(EMT’s are rushing the ring as TLA is down, Harper looks around and sees a baton, she snaps it off the wall of the cage and climbs to the top, she is ready to use it as TLA barely is standing, he gets up….)
Eve: Harper is going to finish it right here! She JUMPS UP AND TLA MOVES OUT OF THE WAY! HARPER LEE STUMBLES AND TURNS AROUND, TLA PICKS HER UP…..SPEARING HER INTO THE CAGE AND SHE HITS TO CLOSE AND HER HAIR CATCHES ON FIRE!

Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER AND STILL THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! TLA!!!!!!!!
(‘Ambitionz az a Ridah’ by Tupac starts to play throughout the arena. The referees and medical staff quickly rush in and spray Harper down with the extinguisher as she lies there barely moving, TLA has rolled away, bleeding, burned and bruised, getting to his knees, concerned about Cameron as she and Veena lie in a heap after crashing through all three levels. The EMT’s are feverishly working on the two ladies while Harper is covered in a blanket and is being treated for her burns. TLA lays on the bottom rope, the title on his shoulder, completely exhausted.)
Deadprez: WHAT A MATCH! WHAT A FREE PER VIEW AND LOOK AT THE CARNAGE IN THE RING RIGHT NOW! AGAIN TLA GOES THROUGH HELL AND BACK TO DEFEND HIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP AND WHO COULD BE NEXT!? WHAT COULD BE NEXT!? WE DON’T KNOW BUT RIGHT NOW OUR CONCERN IS ON VEENA, CAMERON AND HARPER!

(As the stretchers make it into the cage, TLA slowly gets up with the help of the ropes and looks down at Harper Lee who lies there face up glaring at him. He bows in respect and slowly raises the title as the crowd explodes in cheers, fireworks go off as TLA holds up the title, and the fans are deafening…)
Gavin Kirkland: TLA IS STILL THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION BUT MY LADIES….. THEY ARE DEAD! I NEED TO GO IN THERE AND GIVE VEENA MOUTH TO MOUTH!
Eve: STAY RIGHT HERE!
(TLA raises the title up over his head and slowly climbs the ropes as the fires die down, the crowd continues to cheer….)
Deadprez: What a show we had for you here! Dia Del Diablo is in the books and next in line we will have Super Showdown… the Champions Showcase where the Answers World Championship will be defended and then the GRAND RAMPAGE is right around the corner to kick off the Road to Pain For Pride!
