(EAW intro plays)
(Showdown opens up with a recap of last week’s Showdown. Kennedy lets Milli know that she will defend her Universal Women’s Championship in the EEC, but after that, Veena brutally attacks Miku, and later it is known that Miku will be in the EEC for the UWC as well. Raeangel Guzman defeats TJ Alexander. Ruler comes out to talk about the next step in his plans after defeating Ryan Wilson, where Alana comes out and lets him know that he will get a spot in the Answers World Championship EEC. SOSA Henderson comes out to celebrate his National Elite Championship win, where he gives respect to Veena, tells Miku to suck it and that he will be ready for his next challenger. Roberto has an interview with Kyra where he solidifies himself as the leader of La Familia and that he will make sure to be the one to become world champion. Harper Lee defeats Roberto de la Rosa. Silas Mason lets Nikki Kimura know that she will get a title shot at the Specialists Championship. Kelton and Bronson come to Kennedy, not successful at getting the tag titles but due to their performances, Kennedy lets them know that they will get the last two spots in the Answers World Championship EEC. Charlie Marr defeats Miku Sakai after some help from Veena, as Veena tries to attack Miku again, but Miku is able to get away. TLA comes out, not deterred by the result at The Last Stand, and that he will lay down the law on all of his opponents at Road to Redemption. Finally, in the main event, Ryan Wilson, Cody Maverick and Donovan Duke face off for a title shot at the National Elite Championship and the hometown boy, Ryan Wilson, gets the win and the title shot.)
(The recap ends, and it is replaced with the song “Brick Wall” by a Day to Remember, as the camera pans around the inside of the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario. Fireworks are shooting out of the stage and the whole crowd can be seen cheering and being excited for the show. The camera ends up panning over to the commentary table with Deadprez, Eve and Gavin Kirkland as the commentators start talking.)
Eve: WELCOME EVERYONE… TO SATURDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWN!
Deadprez: WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE ROAD TO ROAD TO REDEMPTION! THINGS ARE HEATING UP IN ALL FRONTS AS SO MANY OF OUR WRESTLERS ARE FIGHTING FORWARD TO GET THE GLORY AND CHAMPIONSHIPS TO THEMSELVES!
Eve: And tonight, we have so many matches to look forward to! We see the Universal Women’s Champion Milli Banks fight off against Harper Lee, TJ Alexander go against Luis de la Rosa and the National Elite Champion SOSA Henderson faces against Raeangel Guzmán.
Deadprez: We also see the Answers World Champion TLA go against Brianna Hill and in the main event of the night, Ruler and Bronson Daniels face off once more in the lead-up to their EEC match!
Gavin Kirkland: ENOUGH STALLING, LET’S START OFF THE SHOW WITH THE SUPERNOVAAAAA! :blessed:
(The cameras quickly focused towards the entrance of the stage, various spotlights shining around and getting ready for who was about to come out. Because as soon as the speakers turned on, the crowd went incredibly crazy. “Changed It” by Nicki Minaj played and there were a lot of incredibly loud cheers for the Universal Women’s Champion. After a few seconds, Milli strolled out with a gigantic smile on her face. She was wearing one of her ring gears as she was going to have a match in a few minutes. She exuded a lot of confidence and excitement as she stood once more at the top of the ramp and started dancing along to her song, moving along her arms and doing her dance before she stopped and then raised the Universal Women’s Championship up in the air!)
Eve: Milli Banks yet again coming out to the support of so many people around, she has left her print in the history of EAW ever since she first made her debut here and has fought everything and anything in her path to get to the top of the industry and call herself one of the best to have ever crossed that ring.
Deadprez: She has been tearing it up when it comes to being the world champion, as she has fought so many people in that path of dominance and she has succeeded over so many women who have tried to take that championship away from her, either Harper Lee or KASAI or when it is fighting at Territorial Invasion and bringing Showdown an incredible win. You can truly say in a way that Milli is unstoppable but there is no doubt that she will face her biggest challenge yet at Road to Redemption.
(Milli walked down, accepting a few high fives from the fans around her as she jumped into the ring apron, posed for a moment with her title and then entered inside with confidence to her step. She asked the announcer for a microphone as she slowly turned around and waited patiently for her music to turn off, and once it finally did, she twirled the microphone on her hands and then shouted loudly.)
Milli Banks: TORONTOOOO, HOW Y’ALL DOIIIIINNGGGGGGGGGG?!
(The crowd once again popped into loud cheers as Milli kept a big smile on her face and paced around the ring.)
Milli Banks: Uh-huh! That is what I like to hear! Your girl is excited as well to hand Harper’s ass on a silver platter in a few, do you all want to see that as well?
(The crowd cheered yet again before Milli waved her hands a bit to tell them to calm down.)
Milli Banks: Okay, okay! All of you better keep that energy for the match! But on a serious note, before we have any fun, I do have to address something as we head into Road to Redemption. Extreme Elimination Chamber season, the time where wrestlers in EAW are going to be facing the risk of death, yes I know that happens all the time but this time it is even higher, and we overwork the hell out of our medical team to heal us up, shout out to them by the way! And as all of you probably have already guessed considering the beautiful piece of gold that I have on my shoulder here, I have been the world champion for however many months now up until this point. I have succeeded, I have failed every now and then, but most of the time I shut a lot of people’s mouths and proved a lot of people wrong. And right now, I am going to be completely honest, I feel like those kinds of talks are going to completely ramp up to the point of absolute annoyance because oooooh boy, you all probably remember the last time I was in a Chamber like that one.
Milli Banks: And legit, I very much flopped in that one, hands up in the air, not my best performance when it came to that, outlasted three other people either way and had the current champion at that time get her little lackeys to take me out but either way, I am not proud of that one and I am not a psychic, but I know some women that are going to SPRINT with that when we go to the match and I will just roll my eyes for like the one thousandth time. Because I am already used to this kind of stuff, they try to doubt me, they try to give me roles that don’t fit me at all and then accuse me of things I will never do in any way. There is no doubt that I have worked HARD for this, I have done everything in my power to get this championship right here in my hands and there truly should be no doubt in my name and what I am capable of doing, but either way, knowing what EAW is, that will continue to happen and yet again, I will succeed and beat every single woman that they put in front of me, because that is what Milli Banks is truly about! A woman who will stop at nothing to be a superstar!
Milli Banks: So to cap it all off, let me talk about the ladies that are going to fight against me inside of the Chamber, and do let me say to get my kekeke’s out of the way, I am indeed going to mention that most of the women in the match I have alreadyyyyy beat. Key part in most but I will get to them later, and it is not one of those I beat them years ago because I achieved those victories recently, okay, when it comes to Camille herself, it was a year ago when that happened but ever since then I have only gotten ten times better and I became a world champion at that, so Camille, if you go into the match with the same kinds of thoughts you did before, all you will do is crash and burn yet again. When it comes to KASAI, she tried her best, she tried to prove that she could hang in my division and she could not do it, respect for her though, she is going to have another try at it in the Chamber but I doubt it will work out for her. And as for Miku, maaan, annoying ahh bitch, I hope she trips and falls and breaks all her teeth, I beat her too and I’m gonna do it again.
Milli Banks: Now for the other women, special cases of course, either when it comes to Saori due to me never facing her before and bringing that distinct fire, or most likely, my good friend Holly Arrow, as she was able to beat me fair and square to get to the Empress of Elite finals, genuinely all of the love to her and all of the respect, but I am beating her ass too, and as for Bea, the woman who “beat” me for the Specialists Championship by pinning another woman… uuuhhh, nothing else to note, she is still crazy and more wants to retire than anything else. The point of it all is that I am shutting down the usual doubts, I am redeeming myself against other women who I was unsuccessful at beating before and I am going to come out of the chamber not as the woman who failed before, but as still your WORLD CHAMPION!
Milli Banks: I am going to go to Super Voltage as well to send another message but so far, that is all I have to say! Let’s kick Harper Lee’s ass!
(“Changed It” comes back to the speakers and once again Milli starts bopping and dancing along to the song, a few people in the crowd dancing along with her and vibing too as Showdown goes to commercials in this scene, a graphic of various moments of Milli Banks being shown for a few seconds before it went to commercial break.)
(Showdown came back from commercials as the camera focused on Milli Banks in her own corner, still dancing along to her song before it cut to Gina Romano, ready to announce the match.)
Gina Romano: THIS MATCH IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST, ALREADY IN THE RING, FROM BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, WEIGHING IN AT 135 LBS, SHE IS THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION, “THE SUPERNOVAAAAA”, MILLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
(The camera then cuts towards the entrance ramp. ‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics started to play on the speakers and the crowd started to boo in an incredibly loud manner. Harper Lee slowly came out with a slightly different atittude, instead of playing towards the crowd and having a confident grin on her face, she simply looked more focused than anything else. After what happened last time when these two faced off, she knew she could not lower her guard down or let the same result happen as before. Surprisingly, she was running in her emotions this time instead of her brain, a situation she does not experience that much but she is slightly surprised by it. Either way, she kept her focus towards the ring as she calmly walked down, completely ignoring the crowd.)
Gina Romano: AND HER OPPONENT, FROM CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, WEIGHING IN AT 118 LBS! SHE IS “STAR PLATINUM”, HARPEEEEERRRR LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Deadprez: Harper as usual, unbothered by the people around her and not caring about anything about the people, these two women are heading here into a rematch of grand proportions.
Eve: This match had an incredible match at Midsummer Massacre, a lot of history between the two making hatred the centerpiece of it all, but now, with Milli the victor last time, you have to wonder what will Harper do to tie the score to 1-1… actually, she will probably do the same as usual that she is known for.
(Harper goes down the ramp and casually enters the ring, she takes her corner here and does not take her eyes off of Milli. Milli focuses on her as well. And finally, the bell rings.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: And here we go-
Deadprez: WAIT! HARPER COMES SPRINTING OUT OF THE CORNER AS FAST AS SHE CAN AND THEN TACKLES MILLI INTO THE CORNER! HOLD ON!
Eve: HARPER THEN STARTS DELIVERING VARIOUS STRIKES ONTO MILLI BANKS AND DOES NOT GIVE HER ANY TIME TO BREATHE AT ALL! WHAT HAS GOTTEN INTO HARPER?
Gavin Kirkland: My dear Eve-
Eve: Don’t call me that.
Gavin Kirkland: I do need to remind you that Harper ended up losing that championship match against Milli and gave people the chance to ridicule her and make fun of her about the fact that she ended up doing all of those evil deeds just to end up losing that kind of match at the end.
Deadprez: First comment you have said that shows that you have some kind of brain.
Gavin Kirkland: I can figure that out from Harper, she might look like an evil Soccer Mom but she is a BEAUTIFUL Soccer Mom-
Eve: BUT MILLI DOES NOT LET HARPER GET AWAY WITH THAT AS MILLI PUSHES FORWARD AND STARTS THROWING STRIKES AT HER AS WELL! THE TWO WOMEN NOT HOLDING BACK AT ALL AS THE ROOF COMES OFF OF THIS PLACE AT SUCH A HOT START!
Deadprez: Oh yeah, and the whole thing about them being friends before and them not being any longer, that probably makes the tension in the ring even higher.
Eve: HARPER PULLS HER ARM BACK AND ENDS UP SWINGING HARD FOR THE FENCES WITH A HAYMAKER BUT MILLI ENDS UP DUCKING DOWN UNDER IT AND SHE GOES BEHIND HARPER AS FAST AS SHE CAN! SHE RAISES UP HER LEG FOR A HOOK KICK!
Deadprez: HARPER DUCKS UNDER THE HOOK KICK, SPINNING AROUND TO FACE MILLI AGAIN AND TRYING TO HIT HER RIGHT ON THE FACE WITH A DISCUS LARIAT!
Gavin Kirkland: THE SUPERNOVA RAISES HER KNEE AND ENDS UP KNEEING HARPER’S ARM BEFORE SHE CAN HIT HER WITH THAT LARIAT! MILLI STRETCHES OUT HER ARM AND THEN SHE CHOPS HER RIGHT ON THE CHEST FOR ALL OF HARPER’S TROUBLE!
Eve: MILLI LOCKS HANDS WITH HARPER AND THEN PULLS HER ALONG WITH HER! MILLI RUNS TO THE ROPES AS SHE JUMPS ONTO THE MIDDLE ONE, AND THEN SPRINGBOARDS OFF RIGHT INTO PULLING OFF AN ARM DRAG!
Deadprez: AS MILLI BRINGS HARPER DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH IT AND TRANSITIONS THAT INTO AN ARM BAR-
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER IS ABLE TO SCOUT THAT OUT AND THEN SHE REVERSES IT INTO A ROLL-UP!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Eve: MILLI ENDS UP KICKING OUT RIGHT BEFORE THE TWO COUNT!
Deadprez: THE TWO SCURRY UP TO THEIR FEET AS FAST AS POSSIBLE, JUMPING UP AND THE TWO OF THEM GOING FOR A DROPKICK!
Eve: THEIR DROPKICKS CLASH AND THE TWO FALL TO THE GROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: THE TWO OF THEM ROLL OVER AND KIP UP-
(And both Milli and Harper end up on their feet. There is a roaring applause at the sequence that they were able to pull off but the two of them truly did not care about the people around them, as the two stared at each other with genuine anger and disdain in both of their eyes.)
Eve: Incredible way to start off the match!
Deadprez: You can’t expect less from these two women that have done so much in their career and have achieved championships to their name, even though the two of them are in different sides of the spectrum when it comes to the support from the fanbase, you can not deny at all the kind of talent that they have. They will definitely deny each other’s talents because yeah, all of you know how the relationship of these two has gone on but at least we will have another amazing match from them!
Gavin Kirkland: And an amazing view if you catch my drift-
Eve: THE TWO OF THEM DON’T EVEN STOP HERE AS MILLI RUSHES FORWARD AND THEN TRIES TO HIT HARPER RIGHT ON THE FACE WITH AN EUROPEAN UPPERCUT!
Deadprez: HARPER IS ABLE TO SIDESTEP TO THE SIDE AS SHE TUCKS HER CHIN AND GRABS MILLI BY HER WAIST WHEN SHE TURNS AROUND FOR THE MOVE! AS HARPER LEANS BACK AND THEN REVERSES IT INTO A GERMAN SUPLEEEEEXXXX!!!
Gavin Kirkland: THE SUPERNOVA LANDS HARD ON THE TOP OF HER BACK AS SHE ROLLS OVER TOWARDS ONE OF THE CORNERS, AND THIS GIVES HARPER THE PERFECT TIME TO ATTACK HERE!
Eve: HARPER RUNS TO ONE OF THE CORNERS AND PREPARES HERSELF, RUNNING ACROSS THE RING AT FAST SPEEDS BEFORE JUMPING UP… AND HITTING MILLI BANKS RIGHT IN THE FACE WITH A HESITATION DROPKICK!
Deadprez: YOU COULD HEAR THE LOUD SMACK FROM BOOT TO FACE WITH THAT ONE! HARPER GRABS THE LOOPY MILLI AND PULLS HER OFF OF THE CORNER, DRAGGING HER TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING AND THEN PINNING HER ONCE MORE!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREE-
Eve: And the Universal Women’s Champion ends up kicking out in retaliation! Nothing for Harper Lee!
Deadprez: Harper looking annoyed, as usual, but tonight is a weird situation that I am seeing from her, she usually plays around with her opponent and mocks them for even trying to fight her in any way but as soon as the bell rung, she is the one that took the initiative and made sure to take Milli off-guard with that different start.
Gavin Kirkland: Just as I told you before, Deadprez! Harper is angry that she ended up losing before to Milli Banks, and now that she has the chance to try again on this match and beat her one on one, she is going to do everything in her power to make sure it does not happen again, even if she has to restrict herself on doing her usual antics!
Eve: Harper slowly gets up to her feet and then looks down at the downed Milli, she reaches down to grab her by her head… AND THEN HITS HER DOWN WITH A SNAP DDT!
Deadprez: Harper taking it slow now after letting out all of that energy in the first few minutes of the bout as she once again gets up, grabbing Milli by her hair and then forcing her up to her knees as she takes a step back and then SUPERKICKS HER RIGHT ON THE JAW!
Eve: Milli falls down hard against the mat once more and Harper leans against the corner, the crowd booing loudly and obviously not being at her side at all because who would even want to be on Harper’s side by this point?
Gavin Kirkland: Well, to me, on some days, I like a Harper type of girl, but on other days…
Deadprez: Don’t you even dare finish that sentence, bro.
Eve: Harper is once again ready here to go for another move…
(But Harper stops on her tracks once she sees that Milli is slowly beginning to push herself up to her knees, she is still moving.)
Deadprez: Once again here, Harper’s expression is filled with anger and disdain as she sees that Milli is still moving after all of that damage that she has delivered towards her! Harper has her sights set on her and then she winds up her arm… AS SHE RUNS FORWARD TO MILLI!
Eve: HARPER GOES FOR THE “DRAGON FIST!”
Gavin Kirkland: BUT MILLI ENDS UP MOVING OVER AND CATCHING HARPER’S FIST BEFORE SHE CAN HIT HER IN THE JAW WITH IT!
Eve: THE CROWD ENDS UP STANDING UP TO THEIR FEET IN EXCITEMENT AS MILLI IS NOT OUT OF IT YET! SHE RAISES HERSELF UP TO HER FEET SLOWLY WHILE STILL HOLDING ONTO HARPER’S FIST! MILLI’S EXPRESSION IS FULL OF RAGE WHILE HARPER IS ABSOLUTELY IN SHOCK!
Deadprez: MILLI WRENCHES ON HARPER’S ARM AND THEN PULLS HER CLOSE WHILE SHE TURNS OVER… AS SHE HITS HARPER RIGHT ON THE FACE WITH A PELE KICK!
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER ENDS UP GETTING KICKED ONTO THE ROPES HERE BY MILLI AS THE SUPERNOVA RUSHES UP TO HER FEET, RUNNING TOWARDS THEM AND JUMPING ONTO HARPER BEFORE PULLING BACK AND HITTING HER HARD WITH A DOUBLE KNEE FACEBREAKER!
Eve: HARPER DOES NOT GO DOWN BUT SHE IS LEFT LOOPY AND IN WOOBLY LEGS FROM THAT AS MILLI ROLLS FORWARD AND GETS UP, GRABBING ONTO HARPER’S WAIST-
Deadprez: AND THEN SHE HITS HER WITH AN AMAZING NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX HERE! BUT MILLI IS NOT DONE YET AS SHE STILL HOLDS ONTO HARPER AND THEN LIFTS HER UP YET AGAIN ONTO HER FEET! SHE MOVES HER ARMS AROUND-
Gavin Kirkland: AND THE SUPERNOVA FINISHES OFF THE COMBO WITH “THE COMET CRUSHER”! THE FISHERMAN’S NECKBREAKER DOES A NUMBER ON MY EVIL SOCCER MOM AS MILLI THEN GOES TO PIN HER! IS THIS ENOUGH?
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: IT IS NOT ENOUGH YET! HARPER KICKS OUT THIS TIME WITH RETALIATION IN RESPONSE AND THE MATCH STILL CONTINUES!
Gavin Kirkland: Milli this time slowly rolling away from Harper and then shaking her head around, slightly frustrated as well.
Deadprez: Yeah, I would too be frustrated if I had to deal with Harper of all people, but I am glad I am just here to commentate!
Eve: Milli has been through enough of these instances that she can not let herself get carried away like this and lose the plot, she has to control her anger and find a chance to be able to deal some incredibly serious damage to Harper Lee and it is now her opportunity to do that when she is weak.
Deadprez: Milli this time is the woman that backs away towards one of the corners and she is going to get a chance here to deal something big here to Harper! Harper is slowly getting up to her knees here and Milli takes a deep breath… SHE RUNS FORWARD!
Gavin Kirkland: THE SUPERNOVA RAISES HER LEG UP AND GOES FOR “NO FAKE BILLS HERE”!
Eve: THE ROLES GET REVERSED AS HARPER IS THE ONE THAT CATCHES MILLI INSTEAD! SHE GRABS HER KNEE RIGHT BEFORE SHE CAN COLLIDE IT AGAINST HARPER! MILLI IS THE ONE IN SHOCK THIS TIME AS HARPER TURNS TOWARDS HER AND LETS OUT A GRIN FULL OF MALICE!
Deadprez: HARPER LIFTS MILLI UP BY HER LEG AND QUICKLY MOVES HER ARMS AROUND, TRYING TO HIT MILLI DOWN WITH A SIT-OUT POWERBOMB!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT THE SUPERNOVA IS FASTER AND SHE IS ABLE TO REVERSE THE POWERBOMB INTO A HURRICANRANA! MILLI GRABS ONTO HARPER’S LEGS ON THE WAY DOWN AND TRANSITIONS IT INTO A ROLL-UP!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: HARPER KICKS OUT RIGHT IN TIME BEFORE THE THREE COUNT AND THE TWO WOMEN IMMEDIATELY GET UP ONTO THEIR FEET YET AGAIN! HERE WE GO AGAIN!
Deadprez: HARPER IS THE ONE THAT IS FASTER HERE! AS SHE JUMPS OVER AND TRIES TO HIT MILLI IN THE FACE WITH THE SHINING WIZARD!
Gavin Kirkland: MILLI DUCKS UNDER THE SHINING WIZARD AND SHE RUNS TOWARDS THE ROPES TO GET MOMENTUM HERE! RUNNING TOWARDS THE KNEELING HARPER AND TRYING TO HIT HER RIGHT ON THE HEAD WITH A METEORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
Eve: HARPER ROLLS TO THE SIDE AND MILLI ENDS UP FALLING HARD ONTO HER KNEES! HARPER GETS UP TO HER FEET AS WELL AND RUNS TOWARDS THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE RING THIS TIME AND GETS MOMENTUM! SHE GOES FOR HER OWN METEORA ONTO MILLI!
Deadprez: MILLI PUSHES THROUGH THE PAIN AND JUMPS ONTO HARPER! SHE GRABS HER WAIST WITH HER LEGS AND GOES INTO A WHEELBARROW POSITION HERE! AS SHE LIFTS HERSELF UP AND TRIES TO HIT HARPER WITH A WHEELBARROW DDT AS SHE GOES UP-
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER LIFTS MILLI AND PUSHES HER OFF OF HER RIGHT BEFORE SHE CAN HIT THE DDT! HARPER RUNS FORWARD AND TRIES TO HIT MILLI RIGHT ON THE FACE WITH A HEADBUTT-
Deadprez: MILLI GOES FOR HER OWN HEADBUTT-
Eve: AND THE TWO WOMEN END UP COLLIDING WITH THEIR OWN HEADBUTTS! THE TWO OF THEM HIT EACH OTHER AND FALL INTO THE MAT WITH A LOUD THUD!
(Once again, the crowd cheers loudly and claps at everything that Milli and Harper are leaving out in the ring, but they are not trying their hardest to give a performance to the crowd, they are trying their hardest to make sure the other woman gets seriously hurt.)
Gavin Kirkland: That was basically CTE city there for a moment but so far, I think the match is awesome!
Eve: True that, Milli and Harper have been going back and forth for the past few minutes trying to beat the other woman down in whatever way they can and they have been evenly matched in every move, in every combo and in every plan, either if it is through their feelings carrying them forward into the fight or because they have figured out one another after their first match, they have once again proved why they are worthy of being world champions!
Deadprez: Both Milli and Harper finally start moving around again after that nasty collision, the two move slowly and get up to their knees at the same time…
(Milli and Harper move slowly and they stare at each other in silence for a moment, the tension right now being able to be cut with a chainsaw between the two former friends.)
Milli Banks: (off-mic) You are not… a better person… than me.
Harper Lee: (off-mic) You are right… I am not. I am a better wrestler.
Milli Banks: (off-mic) Prove it, bitch.
Eve: MILLI THROWS A RIGHT HAND AT HARPER’S FACE!
Deadprez: HARPER ENDS UP RETALIATING BACK WITH A RIGHT HAND AS WELL ONTO MILLI’S FACE!
Gavin Kirkland: MILLI ONCE AGAIN PULLS BACK AND HITS HARPER ON THE FACE WITH THAT RIGHT HAND! HARPER MOVES OVER AND HITS MILLI YET AGAIN!
Eve: MILLI! HARPER! MILLI! HARPER! MILLI! HARPER! HARPER! HARPER! MILLI! MILLI! MILLI! THE TWO LADIES ARE GOING ON A BARRAGE OF STRIKES RIGHT NOW, EACH HIT FILLED WITH GENUINE HATRED OFF EACH OTHER!
Deadprez: FINALLY, HARPER PUSHES MILLI AWAY FROM HER AND THEN SHE WINDS UP HER PUNCH! SHE GOES AGAIN FOR THE “DRAGON FIST”!!!
Eve: MILLI DUCKS UNDER IT AND GOES BEHIND HARPER AGAIN, SHE GRABS ONTO ONE OF HER ARMS BEFORE SHE PULLS HER BACK IN A RIPCORD MOTION! THE BITCHMAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-
Gavin Kirkland: EVIL SOCCER MOM DUCKS UNDER THE SLAP AND GRABS ONTO MILLI’S WAIST AS SHE PULLS HER BACK AND LIFTS HER UP IN THE AIR! “UNTIL DAWN-”
Eve: MILLI FLIPS OVER AND LANDS ON HER FEET AFTER THE ATTEMPTED OLYMPIC SLAM! SHE GRABS ONTO HARPER’S HEAD AND THEN RUNS TOWARDS THE ROPES AGAIN, SPRINGBOARDING OFF OF THEM AND TRYING TO GO FOR THE “DIAMOND DUST”!!!
Deadprez: ONCE AGAIN, HARPER PUSHES MILLI OFF OF HER RIGHT BEFORE SHE CAN HIT THE CUTTER! MILLI ROLLS CLOSE TO ONE OF THE CORNERS AS HARPER RUNS FORWARD TOWARDS THE CHAMPION AND JUMPS ONTO HER!
Gavin Kirkland: SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB RIGHT ONTO THE TURNBUCKLES!!!
Eve: MILLI’S BACK MUST BE HURTING FROM THAT ONE AS HARPER DOES NOT SLOW DOWN! SHE TURNS MILLI AROUND AND THEN LIFTS HER UP HIGH INTO THE TOP OF THE CORNER!
Deadprez: Harper, even when she is very overconfident, she knows at this moment that she has to get rid of Milli Banks one way or another and she has to do it with a big move here!
Eve: Harper pushes Milli here towards the top and forces her to sit there! She takes a big deep breath as she climbs up as well! The two ladies here are in incredibly dangerous territory here as Harper grabs tightly onto the waist of Milli Banks! She has her chance here…
Deadprez: HARPER LIFTS MILLI UP! SHE GOES FOR AN AVALANCHE GERMAN SUPLEX-
Gavin Kirkland: NO! MILLI ELBOWS HARPER RIGHT BEFORE SHE CAN LIFT HER UP! Harper is forced to stop here as Milli moves herself around and grabs onto Harper instead… SHE LIFTS UP!
Eve: “BANKRUPT!” BANKRUPT FROM THE TOP ROPE!
Deadprez: THIS IS THE MOVE THAT TOOK OUT HARPER LEE IN THEIR FIRST MATCH! MILLI-
…
…
…
Gavin Kirkland: DOES NOT HIT IT! HARPER REVERSES IT AS SHE JUMPS OFF BEFORE MILLI CAN FULLY HIT IT AND THE TWO LADIES TURN IN THE AIR! AN AVALANCHE WHEELBARROW FACEBUSTER FROM HARPER ONTO MILLI HERE!
Eve: HARPER SEES HER OPPORTUNITY HERE AS SHE JUMPS ON TOP OF MILLI AND GOES TO GRAB HER ARM! SHE GOES TO LOCK IN THE “JOURNEY’S END!”
Deadprez: BUT BEFORE HARPER CAN BRING MILLI’S ARM OVER HER HEAD! MILLI GRABS HER LEFT ARM WITH HER RIGHT AND PULLS BACK AS HARD AS SHE CAN! PREVENTING HARPER FROM LOCKING IN HER SUBMISSION!
Eve: HARPER TRIES TO PULL AS HARD AS SHE CAN AS WELL BUT MILLI IS WINNING THE TUG OF WAR! MILLI SEES HER OPPORTUNITY AND GRABS ONTO HARPER’S ARM INSTEAD, SHE ROLLS HER OVER AND MILLI IS ON TOP THIS TIME, TRYING TO LOCK IN A KIMURA LOCK-
Gavin Kirkland: AAAAAHHHH! HARPER GRABS ONTO MILLI’S FINGERS AND BEGINS TO PULL THEM IN UNCOMFORTABLE ANGLES! MILLI IS FORCED TO GRIT HER TEETH HERE FROM THE PAIN! HARPER PREVENTING MILLI FROM LOCKING IN HER OWN SUBMISSION TOO-
Deadprez: MILLI FINALLY HAS ENOUGH! SHE MOVES HER LEGS AND THEN SHE STARTS STOMPING THE HELL OUT OF HARPER’S HAND! STOMPING OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER TO FORCE HARPER TO LET GO! THE EXPRESSION OF THE TWO ARE IN COMPLETE PAIN AS HARPER WON’T LET GO AT ALL!
Eve: BUT FINALLY, HARPER LETS GO AND ROLLS AWAY, JUST AS MILLI ROLLS AWAY FROM HER TOO! THE TWO GET UP TO THEIR FEET AND WITHOUT THINKING, WITHOUT BACKING AWAY, THEY RUSH AT THE SAME TIME!
Deadprez: “LONELY STAR” FROM HARPER LEE!!!
Eve: MILLI DUCKS UNDER IT AND THEN TURNS AROUND TOWARDS HARPER, RUNNING FORWARD AND JUMPING! “NEW BODY” FROM MILLI!
Gavin Kirkland: ELBOW SMASH FROM HARPER ONTO MILLI’S CHEST AS MILLI JUMPS UP, PREVENTING HER FROM HITTING THE MOVE AND PUSHING HER BACK! HARPER RUNS OFF OF THE ROPES AND THEN JUMPS ONTO MILLI TRYING TO GO AGAIN FOR A SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB!
Deadprez: MILLI PREDICTS THE MOVE THIS TIME AS SHE GRABS ONTO HARPER AND LIFTS HER UP INTO A POWERBOMB POSITION! SHE PUSHES HER UP FOR LEVERAGE-
Eve: BUT THAT GIVES HARPER THE CHANCE TO JUMP OVER HER AND LAND BEHIND HER-
Gavin Kirkland: MILLI GRABS ONTO HARPER’S ARMS AS SHE FALLS AND THEN LIFTS HER UP! HOLD ON!!!!!
Deadprez: “MONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYY MAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!”
Eve: “MONEY MAKER” OUT OF NOWHERE! THE CROWD POPS AS MILLI IS FINALLY ABLE TO CATCH HARPER OFF-GUARD AND DRILL HER HEAD INTO THE MAT WITH ONE OF HER STRONGEST MOVES! HARPER IS COMPLETELY LAID OUT AS MILLI TIREDLY MOVES OVER AND DRAPES AN ARM OVER HER!
Gavin Kirkland: THE REFEREE COUNTS!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEE –
…
…
…
Gavin Kirkland: MILLI –
Eve: NO!
Deadprez: SOMEONE SUDDENLY RUSHED INTO THE RING AND STARTED BEATING THE HELL OUT OF MILLI BANKS!
Gavin Kirkland: MY GOAT?!
Eve: MIKU SAKAI SUDDENLY RUSHED INTO THE RING AND THREW OUT THE MATCH AS SHE IS STOMPING AND PUNCHING DOWN ON MILLI!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOUR WINNER… BY DISQUALIFICATION, MILLI BANKS!
Deadprez: MILLI HAD THE CHANCE TO POSSIBLY GET ANOTHER ASSURED WIN OVER HARPER BUT MIKU CAME OUT OF NOWHERE TO ATTACK HER!
Eve: It is still a win for her but I assume she is not very happy about what happened, mainly because she is getting attacked after all!
(Miku continues to beat up Milli as Harper slowly rolls out to the outside, grabbing onto her head from how hard she fell onto the mat, and for a moment, she sees Milli getting attacked. She slowly gets up to her feet and looks at what is happening… before she shrugs and walks away.)
Eve: Wow, Harper not even caring at all in any bit and leaving Milli like that to the wolves.
Deadprez: Miku ends up grabbing onto Milli and lifts her up, ready to-
Gavin Kirkland: WAIT, VEENA ADAMS!!! VEENA RUSHES DOWN THE RAMP AT HIGH SPEEDS AND THEN SLIDES INSIDE OF THE RING!
Eve: MIKU IS FORCED TO LET GO OF MILLI AND GET OUT OF THE RING AS FAST AS POSSIBLE! VEENA CAME OUT FOR THE SAVE ON MILLI AND TO GET HER HANDS ON MIKU BUT SEEMINGLY, TODAY WON’T BE THE DAY JUST YET!
(Veena is once again leaning against the ropes and yelling at Miku, as Miku backs away from the ramp and casually waves goodbye as she leaves. Veena moves over to check on the downed Milli after that, as the scene fades away there.)
(The camera cuts backstage to the office of the Showdown General Manager Kennedy Street.)
Kennedy Street: Welcome welcome. Kennie is glad that you all were able to join Kennie here tonight in Kennie’s office. Please, please enjoy some of the snacks.
(The camera pans around the office showing a buffet table with a number of local delicacies from Toronto, Ontario, Canada such as maple syrup and pancakes.)
Kennedy Street: Kennie loves Canada. Kennie has been out here jamming to Canada’s greatest hero Drake’s greatest hits all week long! Kennie wants you all to rest assured that tonight is a very special night for all of you, Showdown, and EAW as a whole!
(The camera pans around the room to show that Luis De La Rosa, TJ Alexander, Brianna Hill, and Raeangel Guzman are shown standing in the office looking inpatient. They also do not seem to be interested in eating any of the pancakes.)
Kennedy Street: Kennie knows what you are all thinking. You are all wondering why you have been invited to my private offices. Don’t worry. Kennie does not plan to fire you all! Tonight anyway.
(Kennedy Street is pacing back and forth and this does not make the wrestlers gathered in her office any less anxious.)
Luis De La Rosa: Mami por favor… I got shit to do. So spit it out already chica. I got important La Familia business to attend to.
Kennedy Street: Hmm maybe I will be firing some of you after all.
Luis De La Rosa: :whoa: !!!
Kennedy Street: Thus Kennie wishes you all the best in your future endeavors!
Luis De La Rosa: FUCK!
(Kennedy Street is shown laughing as it looks like Luis is literally the only one who took this seriously.)
Kennedy Street: I’m kidding I’m kidding. You really didn’t think Kennie was serious did you?
TJ Alexander: No.
Brianna Hill: Not at all.
Raeangel Guzman: Hmm no not really. I was actually not really paying attention. What are we doing here again?
Kennedy Street: Ugh… listen when Kennie speaks! This is the first rule of Showdown!
Luis De La Rosa: What is the second rule?
Kennedy Street: The second rule is that I made the first rule the fuck up. Now let’s get this over with because we have more matches and other actually interesting stuff on the show to get to. You are all going to be in a very special match at Road to Redemption.
Brianna Hill: I see. About time you gave us all title matches.
Kennedy Street: Oh honey… no… that’s just… no… Kennie isn’t giving you that… You have to earn that… But this is a chance for you to earn that! You are all going to be in the Extreme Enigma Battle Royal!!!
TJ Alexander: Sounds bitchin’.
Luis De La Rosa: Kennie… you know my record with battle royals… why are you doing this?
Kennedy Street: Well I think it is a big honor actually. You will all get the chance to honor the legacy of the legend himself Extreme Engima in one of EAW’s most prized traditions.
TJ Alexander: This is great. I get to beat Luis’ ass tonight AND at Road to Redemption!
Luis De La Rosa: No. That’s what I was going to say ese. I will be beating you! Twice!
TJ Alexander: I’m so scared of you and your La Familia goons… Oooh scary.
Brianna Hill: You should be scared.
Raeangel Guzman: Very scared.
TJ Alexander: I’m starting to feel outnumbered here…
Kennedy Street: And so you should! Because you will be in the Extreme Enigma Battle Royal if you don’t play your cards right! A battle royal is a test of in ring awareness. Alliances shift and flow like waves… You never know when two Elitists will form an impromptu partnership or meet up with an old ally and form an unbreakable alliance… until they snap and turn on each other the moment it serves their needs! It sounds very exciting doesn’t it!
Luis De La Rosa: Well I know that everyone in La Familia has my back. Just as they know I would never turn on or eliminate any of them.
Brianna Hill: Yeah buddy… we definitely know that.
TJ Alexander: I’m not sure they do.
Raeangel Guzman: Didn’t you see what La Familia did to each other at The Last Stand? That was some murderous cartel type shit.
Luis De La Rosa: That was different…
Kennedy Street: It had better not be. To win the Extreme Enigma battle royal you all will need to have that killer instinct. You will have to be at the very best of your game if you want to achieve that glory! It could go to any one of you! Kennie looks at this room and sees a bunch of people who desperately want to be Showdown’s next top star. But maybe some of you feel like you haven’t been afforded that opportunity. Or you have let other opportunities slip through your grasp in the past. All of that doesn’t matter because this right here is a chance to redeem all of that. Do you get it? The show is called Road to Redemption… and you have a chance to redeem yourself?
TJ Alexander: Yeah we get it…
Kennedy Street: Good. Then get the hell out of Kennie’s office. Especially you two. TJ and Luis… I want both of you in the ring… RIGHT NOW! Your match is about to start.
TJ Alexander: I’ll see you there Luis… if you don’t puss out.
Luis De La Rosa: You think I’m afraid of an idiota like you TJ? Imagine thinking you are anywhere near my level… I don’t even know who the fuck you are.
(Everyone leaves the room as Kennedy Street is left alone in her office with all the snacks that have been completely untouched.)
Kennedy Street: What am I supposed to do with all this food? These wrestlers and their workout regimens… They don’t eat at all do they? Well neither does Kennie… Kennie is on a diet!
(Kennedy Street orders EAW crew members to throw all the pancakes into the trash as the camera cuts to a commercial.)
(A commercial airs featuring historic moments from past Extreme Enigma battle royales.)
(The camera cuts to Gina Romano in the ring.)
Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(“The Touch” By Stan Bush hits to cheers from the crowd.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first from London, United Kingdom he is the “Game Changer” TJ ALEXXXAAAAANNDERRRRRRR!!!!!!!
(TJ Alexander makes his way out to the ring doing a backflip onto the apron as he gets into the ring to cheers from the fans.)
Eve: TJ Alexander is one of the most promising young athletes I have seen on Showdown in a long time. He could go all the way here in EAW.
Deadprez: He sure could. He calls himself the Game Changer and he could most definitely change the game!
Gavin Kirkland: He called me “bruv” backstage earlier. I don’t like him.
Eve: :francis:
(PA’ ROMPERLA by Bad Bunny and Don Omar hits to boos from the crowd.)
Gina Romano: And his opponent residing in Miami, Florida he is LUISSSSSSS DE LA ROSAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
(Luis De La Rosa makes his way out to the ring and grabs a sign from a fan insulting him and tears it up as he enters the ring.)
Eve: Luis De La Rosa definitely does not seem to be popular with any crowd no matter what country EAW goes to. He’s in a bad mood tonight as he will not be going to the Extreme Elimination Chamber.
Deadprez: No but both of these competitors have a new opportunity at Road to Redemption as we saw earlier in Kennedy Street’s office. But tonight they have a chance to get in their opponents head ahead of that big battle at the big show.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: We are all kinds of underway as this should be a great high flying encounter between two of the most agile Elitists in EAW today! The match begins as both men walk around the ring before starting it out with a collar and elbow tie up. That was not very high flying… But suddenly TJ Alexander throws a hard kick right to the head of Luis De La Rosa! But Luis is able to avoid it just in time. Luis ducks around behind TJ and grabs him around the waist from behind. But TJ with a series of hard elbow strikes breaks free. TJ then hits a series of back chops sending Luis up against the ropes. TJ whips Luis across the ring. As Luis comes back around on the other side of the ring off the ropes TJ goes in for a Spinning Heel Kick!-
Deadprez: But Luis De La Rosa jumps over the leg of TJ Alexander as he goes for the hard kick! Luis backflips over the leg of TJ and lands behind him on his feet! Luis then rushes in as TJ rushes him with a punch. Luis catches the arm of TJ and takes him down with a swift Arm Dragon. TJ down to the mat slowly getting back up as Luis kicks him hard in the gut! But TJ had it scouted! TJ grabs the arm of Luis and yanks him around! TJ twists Luis around and then drags him down to the mat into a Fujiwara Armbar! But Luis manages to flip out of it back up to his feet! Luis grabs the arm of TJ as he runs up against the ropes and flips off the middle rope throwing TJ across the ring with an Arm Drag. Great move there by Luis!
Eve: Luis De La Rosa is definitely working hard tonight as he continues to impress the crowd. TJ Alexander is not going to let that stop him however as he dusts himself off and rolls back up to his feet. Luis charges in and goes for a Running Headscissors! But TJ catches him in midair and throws Luis off him! Luis back up as TJ grabs the arm… But Luis flips through it! Luis runs in at TJ who kicks him in the gut before lifting him up and dropping him back first in the ring with a hard Scoop Slam. TJ then runs up off the ropes and connects with a Springboard Moonsault! TJ got all of it as he goes in for the first cover of this match!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TW-
Deadprez: Luis De La Rosa manages to kick out! TJ Alexander doesn’t look too surprised by this as he picks Luis up and punches him back into the corner. TJ whips Luis across the ring… but Luis counters it by throwing TJ into the corner instead! TJ grabs Luis around the head and runs up to the middle rope across the ring… TJ spins around looking for a Tornado DDT! No! Luis is fighting it off! But TJ kicks Luis away from him into the ring! TJ leaps off the top rope and connects with a Flying Hurricanrana throwing Luis across the ring! Luis slides back up to his knees on the other side of the ring and looks shocked that TJ just busted out a move like that on him!
Gavin Kirkland: Great offense from TJ who now has the crowd behind him instead! It didn’t take much effort to get them to turn on Luis it would seem… The crowd is heavily invested in this match now and I can’t blame them if that is the kind of moves we are going to see. TJ rushes in at Luis who throws him up in the air into Powerbomb position! Sit Down Powerbomb! No! TJ turns around in midair and sits on the shoulders of Luis! TJ then flips himself forward into a rollup pinning combination! No! Luis rolls backwards and reverses it having TJ covered instead!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TW-
Eve: This time it is TJ Alexander who is the one who kicks out! TJ back up to his feet as Luis charges in at him with a Running Clothesline! But TJ quickly dodges it and rolls out of the way! TJ rushes in as Luis drops TJ with a Drop Toe Hold! He is transitioning now into an Ankle Lock! But TJ rolls through and Luis ducks around behind as TJ pulls himself up. Luis rolls TJ up from behind with a School Boy rollup!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TW-
Deadprez: Luis has the tights!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-
Eve: But the referee noticed that Luis had the tights! Great work by the referee to actually catch that from Luis. It seems like most of the time our referees fail to notice things like that.
Deadprez: But TJ Alexander is pissed off by Luis De La Rosa’s dirty tactics! TJ is back up as he hits a series of hard knife edge chops right into the chest of Luis beating him backwards into the corner! TJ is striking away at Luis knocking him down in the corner. But Luis suddenly pulls the tights of TJ throwing him backwards and sending him shoulder first into the turnbuckle post! TJ just went into the post with force and Luis now standing on top of the back of TJ before hitting a Curb Stomp to the back of his neck right down into the ring. Luis going up top as he has TJ right where he wants him…
Gavin Kirkland: Frog Splash from Luis De La Rosa! He got all of it and this could be it! The cover!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE-
Eve: TJ Alexander managers to kick out! Luis De La Rosa is now yelling at the referee but he should be happy that the referee hasn’t disqualified him! That was not a three count Luis! Deal with it!
Deadprez: But look out as Luis argues with the referee TJ is going to take advantage! TJ kicks away at Luis before whipping him across the ring. Luis reverses… TJ across the ring as Luis flips him high up into the air! But TJ flips around in midair and connects with a big dropkick on the way back down, sending Luis sprawling across the ring! Luis slowly gets back up to face off with TJ once more as this match has definitely been the definition of a back and forth contest so far.
Eve: Both men face off at a seeming stalemate as Luis grabs TJ and punches him hard in the face. But TJ kicks the arm of Luis away from him. Luis shoves TJ back into the corner and charges in. But TJ leaps up to the top rope and kicks forward with his feet sending Luis backwards. Luis gets back up and turns around but TJ is up on the top rope and leaps off… Flying Dropkick into the ring! Luis goes flying backwards but manages to roll back up to his feet. Luis with some impressive resilience here as TJ runs in at him shoving Luis into the corner and begins battering his opponent in the gut. Luis is taking some damage here as TJ drops him into the ropes and begins to choke him out. But Luis kicks backwards!
Deadprez: Low Blow connects!!! A vicious low blow from Luis behind the referee’s back! Unfortunately unlike the tights pulling earlier the referee did not see that one! And now Luis is turning into the corner as he pulls on the strings of the turnbuckle padding and rips it off! Luis is exposing the metal turnbuckle underneath and this does not bode well for TJ. The referee takes notice of this and is going to replace the padding but Luis kicks it out of the ring! The referee is giving Luis a stern warning as Luis turns back to TJ and picks him up. Luis runs TJ head first into the metal turnbuckle padding in the corner!
Gavin Kirkland: But TJ Alexander gets his boot up on the middle rope and stops Luis from throwing him head first into it! TJ fires back with a series of kicks including one to the head of Luis! TJ a bit desperate here as he falls backwards against the ropes but then rebounds off them and hits Luis with an impressive looking Dropsault! Luis goes falling back first into the ropes and under the bottom rope. Luis falls to the outside of the ring but look out below!!!
Eve: TJ Alexander grabs the top rope and throws himself over the top coming crashing down on Luis De La Rosa on the outside!!! TJ got all of it and flattened Luis like a pancake! This match will continue but who will be able to end this thing?
Deadprez: Both men slowly begin to get to their feet as the referee is beginning the ten count!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE!
Eve: TJ Alexander throws Luis De La Rosa back into the ring!
Referee: SIX! SEVEN!
Deadprez: And TJ makes it back in the ring as well! They beat the ten count! TJ into the cover!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: But Luis somehow gets his leg on the ropes! Luis survives to fight another day!
Eve: The frustration is most definitely setting in for TJ but the crowd is behind him and he knows that he can’t give up this easily! He has Luis right where he wants him as he begins to ascend to the top rope!!! TJ is going high risk here! He leaps off!
Deadprez: Shooting Star Press!!!
Eve: No! Luis moved!!!
Deadprez: But TJ had it scouted and landed on his feet! But Luis shoves TJ into the corner…
Gavin Kirkland: TJ bursts out of the corner and hits Luis with a Running Headscissors! But Luis throws TJ off him and rushes in! Luis with a Dragonrana on TJ into a pinning combination! But TJ reverses the pinning combination into one of his own! No! Luis’ arm is under the bottom ropes! TJ releases as Luis pulls himself up on the ropes! Luis leaps off the ropes and takes TJ down with a Springboard Hurricanrana throwing him into the corner. Luis then runs into the corner pulling TJ up with him… Luis drops TJ with a Tornado DDT! No! TJ throws Luis off him across the ring! But Luis does a cartwheel across the ring maintaining his footing! Luis with a Superkick to the head of TJ! But TJ catches it! TJ spins Luis around… But Luis connects with a Spinning Back Kick as he is spun around!
Eve: TJ goes down with a hard thud and now Luis is going up to the top rope and he’s looking to end this thing! Luis with a 450 Splash!!!
Deadprez: No! TJ rushes the ropes and climbs up them to meet Luis before he can jump off! TJ is fighting back… TJ is going for a Sky High Superplex!!!
Eve: But Luis is fighting it off. Wait look out! TJ just lept up onto Luis’ shoulders! Luis is thrown back into the ring with a Super Hurricanrana from the top! Damn TJ is a master of the aerial arts for real!
Deadprez: TJ Alexander now throws himself back up to the top rope and he leaps off. TJ this time is the one to connect with a 450 Splash! What an incredible rotation!
Gavin Kirkland: Bro was spinning n shit in midair. Bah gawd!
Eve: He hits it! TJ to the cover! TJ to the win! The guaranteed win!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!
Deadprez: Oh hell! How the hell! Luis kicks out! Luis survived that high risk move from TJ and I think it hurt TJ almost as much as Luis! What is it going to take!?!?!
Eve: Both men back up! Luis gouges into the eyes of TJ! Wait no look out!
Deadprez: TJ shoves Luis back and grabs him in a double underhook position…
Eve: GAME OVER CONNECTS! AND THAT GOTTA BE GAME OVER FOR LUIS!!! TJ WITH ANOTHER COVER!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: Here is your winner… TJ ALEXANDERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
(“The Touch” By Stan Bush hits to cheers from the crowd as TJ Alexander has his arm raised in victory.)
Eve: Big win for TJ this week. Great high flying skill on full display!
Gavin Kirkland: Gotta give props to Luis tho too… He did good…
Eve: What? No he didn’t… He just cheated the whole time…
Deadprez: That’s not true. Well kinda… but Luis did demonstrate some cool shit and the match really was back and forth and could have gone either way much of the time. But in the end I think it is clear who the better man was on this night!
(TJ Alexander celebrates on the top rope before the camera cuts to a commercial.)
(A commercial airs featuring speculation that Cody Maverick will box Jake Paul in the near future.)
(Backstage, the camera focuses on Kyra Phillips as she smiles in front of the camera, before speaking.)
Kyra Phillips: Good Evening Showdown fans, please welcome at this time, Nikki Kimura and her manager, Silas Mason.
(Nikki Kimura and Silas Mason walk in. Nikki Kimura looks happy, knowing that she will get a Specialist Championship match against Daniella Atlas who just successfully defended the championship against Mia Santoro at Super Dynasty.)
Kyra Phillips: Last night you two were attending Super Dynasty, and watched Danielle Atlas defend the Specialists Championship successfully against Mia Santoro. It is clear now who you will face at Road to Redemption, Nikki. Your thoughts?
Nikki Kimura: Kyra, Daniella Atlas is an awesome specimen, we saw what shew did on Showdown last year and everyone knew that she was going to be a star then, but one thing that you must remember is that I am a totally different woman now, and have been since Silas Mason has become my manager and adviser. Look,. I respect Daniella, and we watched her firsthand defeat Mia Santoro who is a tough competitor in herself, but everyone know that the Specialist Championship is coming to me, thanks to Silas Mason for getting me the match.
(Kyra nods as Nikki looks over at Silas Mason who smirks.)
Kyra Phillips: There is definitely a lot of confidence there, and Daniella Atlas has had so far an incredible season, what makes you think Nikki that you do indeed have what it takes to dethrone her at Road to Redemption?
Nikki Kimura: Well I –
(Silas Mason cuts her off, he then takes the lead.)
Silas Mason: Let me answer this one darling.
(Silas and Kyra have a small stare down for a second, it was a leftover from the altercation they had last week. )
Silas Mason: I am going to answer that one for you right now Kyra. Look at Nikki Kimura and what she has done in the past few months, after I showed up here. Don’t you get it? She has the x-factor, that being ME. Look, we can talk about how great Daniella Atlas is, sure why not, she is very good at what she does, has been a tremendous champion, and will one do advance and become something even bigger, for sure, but her time in the Specialist division is up. This woman here has watched ot5hers get those shots, but she didn’t have anyone to fight in her corner to help with elevate her to that next level and now she does. Nikki is more than ready, and at Road to Redemption, she is going to show just how ready she is as the NEW Specialist Champion.
Kyra Phillips: I understand that but –
Silas Mason: But nothing, Nikki and I told you how it is going to play out, how the next time you talk to her she will have that title around her waist. For now, though, I do believe that this interview is over, right Nikki?
(Nikki hesitates for a moment but then smiles and nods.)
Nikki Kimura: Yeah… it’s over.
(Nikki walks off screen, Silas stands there for a moment and smirks.)
Silas Mason: You have a good day now, Kyra.
Kyra Phillips: Yeah… you too Silas.
(Kyra just rolls her eyes and turns back to the camera.)
Kyra Phillips: Back to ringside, with Gina Romano and our next match.
(The camera fades to ringside where Gina Romano is ready to announce the participants for the next contest.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen… The following Singles Match is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!
(The crowd is seen waiting in anticipation as ‘Faneto’ by Chief Keef is heard throughout the arena as some fans start to boo loudly and others cheer loudly. The reactions get even louder when SOSA Henderson is seen coming out sporting the EAW National Elite Championship around his waist and his iconic SOSA chain on his neck as he makes his way down the ramp and towards the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first… From Philadelphia, Pennsylvania… Weighing in at 191 pounds… He is The EAW National Elite Champion… “BULLETPROOF”… SOSAAAAAAAAAAAA HENDERSOOOOOOOOOON!!!
(As SOSA Henderson makes his way inside the ring, his theme song slowly fades out as it gets replaced by ‘Tear Away’ by Drowning Pool. Raeangel makes her way down the ramp as the fans boo her very loudly but she doesn’t really care as she dismisses the crowd while letting them know that she is better than them in every way.)
Gina Romano: Introducing his opponent… From San Antonio, Texas… Weighing in at 120 lbs… She is “El Oxígeno”… RAEAAAAAAAAAAANGEL GUZMAAAAAAAAAN!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Eve: Raeangel Guzman versus our newly crowned EAW National Elite Champion SOSA Henderson with special guest commentator Ryan Wilson at our booth; this is about to be a fun and possibly hectic match so if I was you, I’d keep my eyes glued to the screen, and hope I don’t miss any of the action these two are about to showcase here tonight! The match is on its way as both elitist stare each other down before Raeangel Guzmán quickly tries to take down SOSA Henderson with a Bicycle Knee, but SOSA able to move out of the way at the last minute before using Raeangel’s own momentum against her as he pushes her towards the rope! Raeangel rebounds off the rope and as quickly as she was sent towards the rope, she’s quickly put down on the mat with a Back Suplex!
Ryan Wilson: What a beautiful move from SOSA here tonight showing why he is one of the best on Saturday Night Showdown! It’s great to be out here and believe me as much as I don’t like Raeangel’s attitude she’s still a very skilled elitist and it’s going to take more than just one move to keep her down as she’s slowly getting back to her feet, but SOSA Henderson showing off the skills that won him that championship as he quickly puts her back down with a Bicycle Knee of his own as he’s looking to keep the pressure on the young Raeangel as he connects with a Double Foot Stomp to the gut of Raeangel before quickly heading to the top rope looking to take things up in the air with a 450 Splash onto Raeangel and can I just say the crowd here tonight is amazing in Toronto, Ontario, Canada; you just gotta love us Canadians as SOSA Henderson is about to land that 450 Splash on Raeangel…
Gavin Kirkland: My precious cute gummy bear Raeangel puts her knees up just in time as SOSA Henderson lands directly on them before Raeangel pushes him off as she picks herself back to her feet. She’s back in the match and wasting no time starts to pick up SOSA from the mat, Irish Whips him towards the ropes, SOSA rebounds off them as Raeangel is more than ready to connect with a beautiful Backbreaker! She’s not done just yet as she picks a hold of SOSA Henderson as she quickly transitions his position to connect with a Brain Buster of her own! Beautiful stuff we are seeing here tonight as Raeangel starts to run the ropes and goes for a Rolling Thunder that connects before Raeangel starts to drag SOSA Henderson to the corner, she picks him up, and starts to put him on the top rope…
Deadprez: Looks like Raeangel Guzmán is looking to execute a move from up there, it’s a high risk thing to do, but best believe if she is able to connect with some from there? Oh, it’s boutta get NASTY as she tries to hook SOSA Henderson, but SOSA able to free himself after throwing a couple of elbows back hitting the dome of Raeangel before SOSA Henderson regains control of the match and starts picking Raeangel Guzmán up as he looks to connect with a… NASTY TOP ROPE BRAINBUSTER!!! WOO, that’s going to leave a mark folks as SOSA Henderson picks himself back up after that huge move as he looks to try and keep the offense going by quickly heading to the top rope once again as he looks to execute after 450 Splash… IT CONNECTS THIS TIME before SOSA picks up the downed Raeangel looking to connect with a Back Suplex Backbreaker of his own showing us why he is the EAW National Elite Champion!
Eve: Raeangel Guzmán versus SOSA Henderson is turning out to be just as intense as we anticipated! Both competitors are putting on a clinic in the opening minutes of this match, and with the added expertise of Ryan Wilson at the commentary booth, we’re bound to see some interesting perspectives. I can’t stress enough how pivotal this match is for Raeangel Guzmán as she is looking to prove herself against the EAW National Elite Champion himself, SOSA Henderson, and so far, while she’s on the defense as of right now, she’s definitely showing some impressive resiliency!
Ryan Wilson: Absolutely, Eve. As much as I can’t stand Raeangel’s attitude, she’s a force to be reckoned with in that ring. And look at SOSA Henderson; this guy is on another level, no one’s been able to stop him since coming back and capturing that 24/7 contract that helped him capture the EAW National Elite Championship at The Last Stand, and tonight is no different. His ability to hit big moves from every angle is what is going to make him such a great champion.
Gavin Kirkland: Don’t forget about “El Oxigeno” Raeangel Guzmán, my precious gummy bear if you will, Ryan. Sure, SOSA is great, but let’s be honest here folks; Raeangel’s agility and unpredictability make her a huge threat, and when she’s in control, she’s like a whirlwind of chaos! Just like that Brainbuster she executed a couple minutes ago, the way she’s always one step ahead; it’s like watching a high-speed car chase!
Deadprez: It’s true, Gavin. As much as I appreciate the explosive offense of both competitors, there’s something about the style and technique that Raeangel brings. But right now, it’s SOSA taking control. That Top Rope Brainbuster from earlier followed by the continued offense of SOSA Henderson, it looked like it could’ve ended the match right there, but Raeangel’s resilience keeps her in this fight. She’s down, but not out.
Ryan Wilson: You hit the nail on the head, Deadprez. That Brainbuster had Raeangel looking like she was about to be knocked out cold as she continued to take move after move from SOSA, but she’s too stubborn to stay down for long. She’s tough, and if she can somehow weather this storm, she might have a chance to turn the tide.
Gavin Kirkland: I can’t help but love how much punishment Raeangel can take. She may be small, but she’s got heart, and her heart is what’s keeping her in this fight. I’ve seen it before, and I know she’s got what it takes to surprise us all. Come on, Raeangel, you’ve got this!
Eve: It looks like we’re about to see if Raeangel can turn this around. SOSA is setting up for something big… He’s positioning himself in the corner, climbing the ropes for what looks like another move off the top rope; high risk for a high reward as they say in the business…
Deadprez: SOSA’s got that look in his eyes… He ain’t playing around. He’s focused, he’s calculating, and he’s lining up for what could be the knockout blow. He goes for a Jumping Foot Stomp… NO! Raeangel rolls out of the way at the last second! That’s the opening she needed!
Ryan Wilson: There it is! That’s the kind of break Raeangel was waiting for. If she’s going to make a comeback, now’s the time. But SOSA is already back on his feet. You can’t count out the EAW National Elite Champion just yet!
Gavin Kirkland: No way! This is Raeangel’s moment, I can feel it! Look at her charging forward with those wild kicks, trying to find her rhythm again.
Eve: And she does! Raeangel nails an amazing Pele Kick to SOSA right on the nose, sending him stumbling back. That could be the opening Raeangel needs! She follows up with a fierce clothesline that sends SOSA over the top rope to the outside!
Deadprez: There we go, Raeangel is back in control now! She’s on fire! She’s got momentum, and SOSA is in a vulnerable position on the outside. Let’s see what she does with this opportunity!
Ryan Wilson: SOSA Henderson isn’t someone who stays down for long, though. If Raeangel is smart, she’ll stay aggressive. SOSA’s the type to catch you off guard with a counter when you least expect it and these beautiful people of Toronto know this better than anyone else as the fans are pumped up and not going to lie; so am I folks!
Gavin Kirkland: Look at Raeangel, she’s not giving SOSA an inch. She’s pulling him up to his feet, tossing him back into the ring. She’s got that fire back in her eyes, and now she’s climbing to the top rope. This is where it gets real, folks!
Eve: Raeangel’s going high-risk from the top rope, this time she’s going for a Frog Splash! She leaps… but SOSA rolls out of the way at the last second! What an incredible display of agility and awareness from the National Elite Champion and goes to show that while Raeangel has speed and agility; SOSA Henderson has the veteran experience!
Deadprez: That was the break SOSA needed. Now he’s going to make Raeangel pay for that mistake, mark my words.
Ryan Wilson: Exactly. SOSA’s not a champion by luck. He knows how to capitalize on any opening, and he’s about to show us just why he’s been one of the top stars this season on Showdown. Get ready, this could be it.
Gavin Kirkland: Not so fast, Ryan! Raeangel still has some fight left in her! She’s crawling, struggling to get back on her feet! Look at her determination!
Eve: And just like that, Raeangel fights her way back to her feet, just in time to intercept SOSA’s charge with a surprise Pump Kick out of nowhere! It connects cleanly with SOSA’s jaw, and he drops to the mat in a heap!
Deadprez: That was a HUGE Pump Kick! Raeangel’s got him now, but she’s taking her time, stalking him, making sure she’s got him exactly where she wants him. This could be her moment!
Ryan Wilson: Wait a second, SOSA isn’t out just yet! Look at him, using his strength to power through, trying to crawl to the ropes!
Gavin Kirkland: No way, Raeangel! She tries to put SOSA in a Crossface now… Don’t let go now! You’ve got him right where you want him!
Eve: And just like that, SOSA is able to grab the ropes, Raeangel releases the hold, but she doesn’t give him any breathing room. She lifts SOSA back to his feet, looking to set him up for something big. The crowd is on their feet, waiting for what’s next!
Deadprez: It seems like Raeangel’s going for the “Estas Fuera”, her signature move off the corner ropes, as she’s able to connect it flawlessly before not so long going for the cover… Is this all this match rode?!?
Gavin Kirkland: Come on, SOSA, you’ve been through worse! Fight out of it!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Eve: SOSA reaches the ropes, and Raeangel is forced to let go of the pinfall! The damage has already been done, though; SOSA looks out of it, but Raeangel is relentless as she thinks she has what it takes to finally put down the champion here tonight!
Ryan Wilson: This match is absolutely brutal. Both competitors are giving it their all, but I still think SOSA has one more trick up his sleeve. He’s not done yet, not by a long shot.
Gavin Kirkland: Don’t count Raeangel out, though, Ryan! She’s proving that she can hang with the best of them. She’s got a ton of heart!
Deadprez: The crowd is definitely behind both SOSA and Raeangel right now. You can feel the energy shifting as these two are putting a clinic inside that ring no side knowing who to favor, but SOSA’s been a champion for a reason. This match isn’t over yet, not by a long shot.
Eve: Raeangel is pulling SOSA back to his feet, looking for one more big move. She whips him to the ropes, SOSA rebounds, Single Leg Dropkick to the chest! SOSA hits the mat hard!
Ryan Wilson: It’s like a back-and-forth struggle, Eve! One minute Raeangel’s got control, and then SOSA takes it right back. This is what makes both of them dangerous.
Gavin Kirkland: This is the kind of action I love to see! High stakes, high drama, and both competitors fighting tooth and nail to prove who the best really is!
Deadprez: And now Raeangel is pulling SOSA up once more. She’s positioning him… Looks like she’s going for “The Euphoric Inhale” off the corner… She takes off from the ropes towards him… but SOSA counters with a Superkick while Raeangel is in the middle of the air! Both competitors are down!
Eve: And what a counter from SOSA Henderson! He’s not letting Raeangel have the last word just yet. They’re both on the mat, trying to recover, but who’s going to make it to their feet first?
Deadprez: Both of them are slowly crawling to their feet… SOSA, trying to shake off the effects of that brutal signature move of Raeangel, while Raeangel’s still feeling the sting of that Superkick. This could be it, folks!
Ryan Wilson: I can feel the tension in the air. This is anyone’s match now. Whoever can find their second wind, that’s who’s walking out of here with the victory.
Gavin Kirkland: I’m on the edge of my seat! Come on, Raeangel! Show him why you deserve that title shot!
Eve: Both competitors are up… but it’s SOSA who strikes first with a brutal kick to the midsection, followed by a Jumping DDT out of nowhere! He’s on fire now!
Deadprez: And now SOSA’s not wasting any time. He’s looking for the end as he’s setting up for a Spear… He yells for Raeangel to get up as she slowly gets up… He goes for it… NO! Raeangel counters with a Superkick giving a taste of his own medicine to SOSA as ur stuns SOSA!
Ryan Wilson: What a counter from Raeangel! She’s showing why she’s not a pushover tonight! This match is all about who can outlast the other, and right now, Raeangel’s proving she’s got the staying power!
Gavin Kirkland: That Superkick was absolutely savage! Raeangel’s feeling it, and she’s charging up the momentum! This is her moment to take it home!
Eve: Raeangel has SOSA dazed! Raeangel once again putting a Crossface Submission Hold on SOSA but SOSA isn’t giving up as he starts crawling to the ropes once again…
Ryan Wilson: What’s this?! SOSA! He’s grabbing the ropes, forcing Raeangel to break the hold!
Gavin Kirkland: I can’t believe it! That was a close one, but SOSA’s hanging on for dear life!
Eve: And now, it’s do or die for both competitors. Who will find the strength to finish this match?
Deadprez: Raeangel tries to pick up SOSA, but SOSA is able to daze her with a stiff elbow as SOSA’s got Raeangel, lifting her for a Superplex! He climbs to the top rope, positioning her… and YES! He hits it! The crowd is stunned!
Ryan Wilson: That’s it! SOSA’s got this! He’s setting up for the finish! Goes a few inches back and CONNECTS with “Paid In Full” as the Double Curb Stomp leaves Raeangel grounded on the mat!
Eve: It’s over! SOSA Henderson covers Raeangel for the pin…
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner by pinfall… “BULLETPROOF”…. SOSAAAAAAAAAA HENDERSOOOOOOON!!!
Eve: And that’s it! SOSA Henderson wins it! He retains the National Elite Championship in an absolute war! What a match!
Ryan Wilson: What an unbelievable display of skill, heart, and sheer determination from both of these competitors. But in the end, SOSA proves why he’s the National Elite Champion!
Gavin Kirkland: Raeangel gave it everything she had, but tonight, SOSA was just one step ahead!
Deadprez: What a fight, though. Both of these competitors should be proud of what they put on tonight. This was one for the ages, folks!
(Ryan Wilson steps away from the commentary table as he grabs the EAW National Elite Championship from the side before heading inside the ring and handing it to SOSA Henderson.)
Gavin Kirkland: What is this idiot doing? Does he not know that nobody touches the championship gold besides the champ himself? SOSA Henderson rightfully snatching the championship away from Ryan Wilson as both men start to stare each other down…
(SOSA Henderson and Ryan Wilson are seen in the middle of the ring staring each other down before not too long SOSA lifts up the EAW National Elite Championship in the air as both men are yet to break eye contact before the scene fades into an ad for Super Showdown.)
(The camera returns to the arena, which is silent for the time being before being filled the sounds of ‘Kostas’ by Westside Gunn, Conway the Machine & Benny the Butcher that started playing throughout the arena as Cody Maverick enters the arena to a mixed but leaning towards positive reaction from the crowd. Cody, on the other hand, does not look to be in a very good mood as he heads to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome at this time “THE SIN CITY SUPERSTAR” CODY MAVERICK!
Deadprez: Here comes Cody Maverick heading to the ring and it looks like he is walking with a purpose considering that the last few weeks haven’t been too kind to Cody.
Gavin Kirkland: Yeah, he had a chance to win the National Elite Championship at The Last Stand against Veena Adams, but he couldn’t get the job done. Last week, he also had a shot at becoming Number One Contender and getting another match for the National Elite Championship at Road to Redemption.
Eve: That match was a triple threat match that was won by Ryan Joseph Wilson when he caught the third participant Donovan Duke off guard and got him with a surprise three count and it’s going to be Ryan Wilson challenging SOSA Henderson for the National Elite Championship at Road to Redemption.
Deadprez: That is going to be an awesome match at Road to Redemption, but right now, it doesn’t sit well with Cody Maverick that he wasn’t even involved in the final decision last week. Right now, it looks like Cody has something on his mind and we are going to hear what Cody Maverick has to say.
(Cody walks over to the timekeeper’s area and grabs a microphone from Gina Romano before entering the ring. Cody stands front and center in the ring and waits for the crowd to calm down as his entrance music fades off. The crowd calms down a second later and Cody begins to speak.)
Cody Maverick: Last week, I was expecting to walk into Showdown holding championship gold. I was hoping to walk into Showdown as the new National Elite Champion with the feeling and knowledge of being able to defeat Veena Adams for the title… but that didn’t happen.
Cody Maverick: She got the victory over me and I had to sit back and watch as SOSA Henderson took advantage of all the craziness and became the new National Elite Champion.
Cody Maverick: Now this week, I was hoping to be walking into Showdown as the Number One Contender to the National Elite Championship getting to face SOSA at Road to Redemption, but that didn’t happen either, did it?
Cody Maverick: You know what? Two weeks in a row in matches involving Championship Gold in some form, but two weeks in a row, I end up with NOTHING! To say the least, I am just a little bit FRUSTRATED with everything that has been going down. At The Last Stand, I can understand what I did wasn’t enough to get me the gold. I don’t like it, but I have accepted that.
Cody Maverick: As for last week in that triple threat match, there is only one person that I can put blame on for me losing that match… and that person is DONOVAN DUKE!
(The crowd lets out a shocked and a negative reaction from the crowd for Cody blaming Donovan for his loss last week.)
Cody Maverick: If it wasn’t for him screwing up and clobbering me at the end of that match, he wouldn’t have been rolled up by Ryan Wilson and I would have been able to break up the count. It’s HIS fault that I am nowhere near close to the National Elite Championship.
Cody Maverick: And I could give two shits less if he has the Cash in the Vault briefcase in his possession. He isn’t going to just walk all around here like everybody should be on pins and needles because there’s no reason for us to be. Donovan Duke as Mr. Cash in the Vault is laughable at best. That’s because–
(Cody doesn’t get a chance to finish his sentence as he is cut off by the sounds of “I Rise” by Cory Marks playing throughout the arena. Seconds later, the crowd goes absolutely crazy in cheers by the appearance of Donovan Duke. Mr. Cash in the Vault doesn’t look too amused either after hearing what Cody had to say about him as he heads to the ring.)
Deadprez: Well to bring back an old term, it looks like business is about to pick up because Mr. Cash in the Vault is here. Donovan Duke is Toronto and he is heading right to the ring.
Gavin Kirkland: Why does he look so annoyed? It’s not like anything Cody said wasn’t true. He’s acting like people with title belts should be walking on eggshells around him because he has the Cash in the Vault briefcase. Good gawd. This crazy bastard thinks he’s intimidating, but he has to be the least intimidating Cash in the Vault winner we’ve ever had.
Eve: You are so damn stupid sometimes, Gavin. It’s a wonder how you can function. Donovan is an amazing talent in the ring and doesn’t take crap from anybody and it’s safe to assume that’s exactly what he is out here to do.
Deadprez: Cody Maverick is not in a good mood and Donovan Duke can have a temper that can go off in a moment’s notice. We better have security on standby just in case things get heated between these two. Right now, let’s hear what Donovan has to say.
(Donovan also grabs a microphone from Gina Romano before he enters the ring and steps up to Cody as his entrance music fades off.)
Donovan Duke: Are you done? Or do I need to leave and let you finish this little temper tantrum of yours so I come back out later?
Cody Maverick: Temper tantrum? What the hell are you talking about?
Donovan Duke: What else am I left to assume because the shit that’s coming out of your mouth leads me to believe that you’re either throwing a fit or you are completely delusional after landing on your head last week.
Cody Maverick: Now you wait just a second.
Donovan Duke: No! You wait just a second. You have had your chance to talk and now that I am out here, it’s my turn to talk. You know something, Cody? After tagging together and being Brand Warfare teammates, I thought you would be different, but you’re just like many others.
Cody Maverick: What the hell do you mean by that?
Donovan Duke: What I mean is that when someone is having issues with their career, they find somebody else to throw them under the bus and blame them. Last week, I cost you NOTHING! The match was every man for themselves and you found yourself out of the picture, yet you still blame ME! That’s a load of bullshit.
Cody Maverick: Do you know what’s bullshit? Knowing that losing a match to people like you and Ryan Wilson even though I will be leaps and bounds better than both of you in just a quarter of the time.
Donovan Duke: Is that what you think, huh?
Cody Maverick: That’s exactly what I think, I was mere seconds away from taking a title that YOU lost to Veena Adams in the past. I have only been here barely over a year and I was closer to winning championship gold than you were when you were at the current point of my career.
Donovan Duke: Well look at the case of revisionist history that you have going on. Yeah it might have taken me a little bit compared to others, but I completed my rookie season in EAW WINNING the 24/7 Contract. You know? The contract that SOSA used against Veena? The contract that YOU just missed out on at Pain for Pride.
Cody Maverick: Good for you, Duke. But that was the past, now we’re years later and you still haven’t advanced much in your career, have you? Always a contender, never a champion.
Donovan Duke: If you are trying to make me sound old, it’s not working. Aren’t you older than me? Second, while my resume might not be as extensive as others who have been here about the same amount of time as me, I am just one match away from becoming what many people dream about and that is World Champion.
Cody Maverick: Yeah yeah, because of your briefcase and all that shit. Save it, Donny. We’re all sick and tired of hearing that schtick from you. Face it! You see somebody like me shooting up the rankings and you start to feel jealous. I understand. If I wasn’t me, I would be jealous of me too.
(Donovan looks at Cody confused for a second before he starts laughing.)
Donovan Duke: Are you fucking serious, Cody? You are losing it. I am not jealous of you nor will I be jealous of anybody and it will be a cold day in hell before that ever happens. Now I might not have shot up the rankings like you, but my slow and steady and working my ass off approach to my career would certainly help me kick your ass any day of the week.
Cody Maverick: Kick my ass? I highly doubt that, but if you really wanna try, how about we make this interesting.
Donovan Duke: What do you have in mind, loudmouth?
Cody Maverick: Since neither of us have any plans for Road to Redemption, how about you back up your claims. You. Against me. Road to Redemption….
(Cody steps up and gets in Donovan’s face before he finishes his statement.)
Cody Maverick: IN A THIRTY MINUTE IRON MAN MATCH!! So what do you say, Donny? You think you have what it takes to go against me for thirty minutes?
(Donovan looks at Cody for a second with a smirk on his face before he answers Cody’s challenge.)
Donovan Duke: Thirty minutes? Against you? Please, for a competitor who already considers himself an Iron Man in the ring… YOU’RE ON!!
(The crowd starts cheering louder as the match is now official. Donovan reaches out for a handshake in good sportsmanship. Cody looks at Donovan for a second before returning the handshake, but seconds later, Cody pulls Donovan in and now both competitors are face to face and nose to nose.)
Eve: HOLY CRAP! WHAT A MATCH WE HAVE FOR ROAD TO REDEMPTION! Cody issued the challenge and Donovan has accepted. We now have an Iron Man match at Road to Redemption.
Gavin Kirkland: What else would you expect on Showdown because WE WRESTLE!! Cody is amazing in the ring and future champion. Hell even I can admit while Donovan might be country boy crazy and batshit nuts, he can go in the ring.
Deadprez: These two might have missed out on the National Elite Championship at Road to Redemption, but this rivalry is reaching the point that we have a battle of in ring superiority at Road to Redemption. Cody Maverick. Donovan Duke. THIRTY MINUTE IRON MAN CHALLENGE! This is going to be a possible show stealer.
(The final shot still shows Donovan and Cody still shaking hands and still face to face in the middle of the ring while both are talking trash to each other as the camera fades elsewhere.)
(The camera cuts backstage to Mikaela Street, who has a smile on her face and a microphone in her hand as she stands in front of a Showdown banner as the crowd reaction fades off and Mikaela begins to speak.)
Mikaela Street: Ladies and gentlemen, tonight has already been an action filled edition of Saturday Night Showdown and the best is yet to come as things start to heat up as we head towards Road to Redemption.
Mikaela Street: One of the high profile matches that will happen at Road to Redemption is the Extreme Elimination Chamber match for the Universal Women’s Championship where we will see Champion Milli Banks defend against five challengers from all three brands. My guest at this time will be one of the Showdown challengers for the Universal Women’s Championship. She is MIKU SAKAI.
(Miku walks into the camera frame and she does not look happy at all considering everything that went down last week. She is looking down in anger and it seems like she is almost talking to herself.)
Miku Sakai: That was crap. Such fucking bullshit and injustice going on around here. Such fucking bullshit and somebody is going to pay for this. One way or another. Seriously, it’s like….
(Miku is almost in a deranged and enraged state as she continues talking to herself, leaving Mikaela confused and a little uncomfortable. So she decides to try and intervene so this interview can get started.)
Mikaela Street: Umm… Miku?
(Miku is snapped out of her own thoughts as she turns and glares at Mikaela and that glares forces Mikaela to take a step back in nervousness.)
Miku Sakai: WHAT IN THE HELL DO YOU WANT?
Mikaela Street: Well… well… I am sorry to bother you, but I do have a few questions for you if you don’t mind.
(Miku looks at Mikaela and rolls her eyes before answering Mikaela.)
Miku Sakai: Yeah. Sure. Fine. Whatever. I mean I highly doubt that you’ll do something stupid and try to screw me over. Let’s get on with this.
(Mikaela takes a deep breath and steps next to Miku before nodding her head and starts to ask her first question.)
Mikaela Street: Thank you. Now my first question has to do with what has been going on the last few weeks and this rivalry that has been building between you and Veena Adams. Especially with what happened last week, what do you have to say about Veena Adams?
Miku Sakai: What the hell do you mean what do I have to say? I had a one way track to beating the shit out of that silicone whore Veena Adams at The Last Stand and made my intentions known, but NOOOOOOO! SOSA Henderson had to go and fucking ruin everything. So, what does that slut do? She attacks me in the parking lot last week to “return the favor” or some shit! WHERE THE FUCK WAS SECURITY OR SOME SHIT! WHAT A FUCKING TRAVESTY!
Mikaela Street: And then….
Miku Sakai: AND THENNNNNNNNNNN! After being attacked, all I wanted to do was go back to my hotel and recover considering I was in no condition to compete, but did our “esteemed” General Manager Kennedy Street call off the match and allow me to recover?
(Miku looks over at Mikaela and shrugs at her, wondering why Mikaela is being so quiet.)
Miku Sakai: Well?
Mikaela Street: No. Kennedy did not call off the match.
Miku Sakai: OF COURSE SHE DIDN’T! I don’t know what in the fuck is going on in her head or what sort of personal vindication she has against me, but she FORCED me to just get “patched up” and go right into the ring to fight. Normally, I would have had no issue doing that, but hearing Kennedy say that after screwing me over time and time again really pissed me off.
Mikaela Street: Speaking of your match last week, you competed against Charlie Marr. You fought hard and you looked to have the match in hand, but unfortunately, it was Charlie Marr who picked up the victory.
Miku Sakai: Do you know what caused me to lose that match?
Mikaela Street: Umm…. Veena Adams?
Miku Sakai: YOU’RE DAMN RIGHT! VEENA ADAMS STUCK HER NOSE IN MY BUSINESS ONCE AGAIN AND SCREWED ME OVER AND CAUSED ME TO LOSE AGAINST HER OLD FUCK MANTHING! FUCKING RIDICULOUS!
Mikaela Street: I know that….
Miku Sakai: JUST BECAUSE THAT BITCH HAS BEEN SCREWED MANY TIMES IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENCE SENSE BECAUSE SHE’S A FUCKING WHORE WHO HAS BEEN ON HER BACK PLENTY OF TIMES IN HER LIFE DOESN’T MEAN THAT SHE NEEDS TO STICK HER OVERFILLED SILICONE TITS IN THE BUSINESS OF SOMEBODY ELSE? I DON’T FUCKING THINK SO!
Mikaela Street: Speaking of last week—-
Miku Sakai: Oh I can’t fucking wait until I have another chance to get my hands on that egotistical, self centered, bottom feeding, trash swimming gutter whore. When that happens, oh let me tell you that the bitch isn’t going to know what hit her.
(Miku looks up at the ceiling and cracks her knuckles before turning back to Mikaela and continuing to speak.)
Miku Sakai: If that skank is able to make it out alive after I beat the shit out of her, it would be a godsend because if I am now not able to take the National Elite Championship away from Veena Adams, I can certainly take something else away from her.
Mikaela Street: What exactly would you take away from Veena when you inevitably meet again.
Miku Sakai: Bitch, have you not been listening to what the fuck I have been saying this entire time?
(Mikaela stays silent and nods her head, acknowledging that she indeed has been listening as Miku continues speaking.)
Miku Sakai: So, you should be well aware that I am willing to take everything away from her. Her looks that we all know were all put together by a plastic surgeon or two because we all know there’s nothing natural about that stupid skank.
Miku Sakai: I want to take her mind, her body, and her soul. If I get my way, that bitch is going to go from a blonde to a redhead. If and when that next fight happens, they had better have the paramedics and an ambulance ready because that dumb old bastard Charlie Marr will not be able to recognize his skank when the bandages come off. I guarantee it.
Mikaela Street: I am sorry to interrupt you Miku, but….
Miku Sakai: WHAT NOW, BITCH?
Mikaela Street: What I was trying to say is that even though a lot of things didn’t go your way last week, there was something that did go good for you. After the sneak attack by Veena Adams, Kennedy Street made it known that you were going to be one of the participants in the Extreme Elimination Chamber at Road to Redemption for the Universal Women’s Championship.
Miku Sakai: You mean when she also threatened to take that spot away when I wanted to go back to the hotel? Whatever. Even though it took our diligent upper management this fucking long to get something right, they finally did it when they put me in the Chamber for the Universal Women’s Championship.
Miku Sakai: It’s about fucking time that I am competing for a title because if there is anybody in this damn company that deserves to be champion again, it’s me! One opponent, two, five, eight, the whole fucking roster? BRING IT ON! I WILL GO THROUGH ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY WHO TRIES TO GET IN MY WAY OF ACHIEVING THE GLORY THAT I KNOW THAT I DESERVE!
Mikaela Street: About the–
Miku Sakai: These bitches need to just accept the fact that since I am in the Extreme Elimination Chamber that they need to just kiss their chances of leaving with gold goodbye and that includes the current Universal Women’s Champion Milli Banks. BECAUSE IT’S ABOUT FUCKING TIME ALL THIS INJUSTICE IS FUCKING DONE AND OVER WITH BECAUSE I AM SICK OF IT, I AM FED UP AND I HAVE HAD IT! THAT’S BECAUSE I HAVE DEALT WITH TOO MUCH BULLSHIT THE LAST FEW….
(Miku is cut off by the appearance of Alana Starr, who is now standing next to Mikaela with a smile on her face. Miku does not look amused as she looks at Alana and wonders what she has to say.)
Miku Sakai: What the hell do you want?
Alana Starr: Come on, Miku. Don’t be like that. I am not here to make an enemy out of you because I have some good news. Myself and Kennedy saw the fire coming earlier and we liked it. You need to keep that energy because at Super Showdown, you will go one on one… AGAINST VEENA ADAMS!
(You can hear cheers in the background as Miku keeps an emotionless expression on her face as Alana continues.)
Alana Starr: Remember, Miku. Keep that energy for the match… WAIT! One more thing. Good luck in the Chamber.
(Alana has a smirk on her face as she walks away as Mikaela is just watching Miku as she just stares at her walking into the distance while developing a very evil look on her face as the camera cuts elsewhere.)
(The camera pans to Gina Romano ready to introduce the participants to the next match.)
Gina Romano: The following is a NON TITLE contest and it is scheduled for ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(‘Ambitionz az a Ridah’ by Tupac starts playing as the crowd starts to cheer as the Answers World Champion TLA is in the ring, always in a style that we expect from the Hall of Famer. He has his Answers World Championship belt on his shoulder as he circles the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first already in the ring! Residing in The Poon Palace in Miami, Florida! Weighing 210 pounds! Here is the ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! “LA PANTERA SEXUAL” T! L! A!
(His theme song is slowly replaced by ‘ballad of a homeschooled girl’ by Olivia Rodrigo as they see Brianna Hill make her way towards the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing her opponent… Residing in Cancun, Mexico… Weighing in at 119 lbs… BRIANNAAAAAAAAAA HIIIIIIIIIILLL!!!
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gavin Kirkman: Brianna Hill takes on TLA, as both elitists are beginning to make the rounds around the ring while they can. TLA is looking to move in for that test of strength early on, and it seems that Brianna is looking to take up the task, raising her hand as well, perhaps she sees that this can be a testament to the competition that she will be dealing with— but a BOOT right to the midsection of TLA! Brianna could have entertained the test of strength, but it seems she opted not to go down that path as she sent a hard right across the jaw of TLA! Now she’s assuring that TLA is situated in a position that won’t be the most favorable to him, as she continues to employ as much pressure as possible with these strikes!
Eve: But TLA ducks under a strike and now Brianna is backed against the corner, turning herself around… ONLY TO BE MET WITH A KNIFE-EDGE CHOP across her chest! Brianna tries to move out of the corner, but TLA shoves her back into the corner to send ANOTHER CHOP right across her chest with authority here!
Deadprez: TLA looks to send another strong chop across her chest—but Brianna ducks the chop and keeps a hold of TLA’s wrist from behind, swiftly turning TLA around as she pulls him away from the corne and aims for a RIPCORD FOREARM— BUT TLA DUCKS! Now TLA is rushing the ropes after he ducks the maneuver as he runs back toward Brianna… AS HE SENDS BRIANNA REELING WITH A HURRICANRANA! Brianna is forced to roll through the hurricanrana with a hand on her own lower back, clutching onto the middle rope while TLA is moving himself back up to his feet! The crowd are enamored with him here, and he’s feeling the energy!
Gavin Kirkman: Now we see TLA looking to knock Brianna down for much greater measure here, as he’s got Brianna lined up in his own sights! TLA rushes the ropes once more and runs toward Brianna! BUT BRIANNA HILL LIGHTER ON HER FEET! CHOP BLOCK RIGHT TO THE KNEES OF TLA THERE! This causes TLA to stumble forward and fall right onto the middle rope, his upper body draped over the ropes as he’s in a bad spot here! Now Brianna is quickly rising back up to her feet as she sees where she caught TLA within, and Brianna doesn’t waste another second to rush the ropes before running back.. WITH DOUBLE KNEES RIGHT ACROSS TLA’S BACK! TLA absolutely felt every bit of that maneuver while he’s still situated against the ropes
Eve: Brianna’s able to move upward into a better stance again, and she’s treading over to TLA with her hands gripping onto the top rope, now pressing her knee against the back of TLA as his throat is caught onto the middle rope here! Brianna is squeezing any life from TLA with this maneuver that she possibly can, and the referee is counting down! Thankfully Brianna is able to let go and walk away from TLA before the five count could initiate, but she was awfully close to sealing her fate with a less than stellar loss.
( As TLA tries to regain himself, TLA looks up to see Jon Kelton and Bronson Daniels standing at ringside watching the match. TLA looked confused, not even sure when those two came out here. )
Gavin Kirkman: Looks like Elysium came out to get a better look at their main competition! TLA got to get his head in the game, not worry about the people watching. Which seems a lot harder said than done. Brianna focuses her attention back on TLA as she rushes back toward him while he’s caught up at ringside— BUT TLA WITH A SUDDEN BOOT TO THE KNEE! Now Brianna finds herself crashing neck first onto the top rope as she’s clutching her own throat, coughing up quite the storm as she’s trying to back away from the ropes! TLA is back up to his feet as Brianna’s back is turned just to recover… BUT NOT ENOUGH TIME! ZIG ZAG FROM TLA IS SUCCESSFUL AS HE PLANTS BRIANNA DOWN ON THE MAT! The cover is made!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
Eve: Nope! Kick out! Brianna still got a hold of her neck, and TLA maintains focus as he sees Brianna slowly getting herself back up, but TLA decides to hook Brianna’s arms around his own in an interlocked position from behind, and he’s hoisting her up for an impending TIGER SUPLEX- BUT BRIANNA SQUIRMS FREE AND WITH A HOLD OF TLA’S WRIST— SENDS A RIPCORD FOREARM HIS WAY! She’s able to rock TLA with the forearm that connects right across his own temple, his head must be ringing as he’s unable to retaliate back against Brianna after being dealt with by a swift counter!
Deadprez: Brianna keeps a hold of TLA’s wrist as well after striking him with the deliberate forearm! Now the World Champion is in trouble as Brianna has TLA in a bad way here, pulling him directly into ANOTHER forearm that drops TLA to his knees! Now Brianna has TLA where she needs him as she leaps upward to the ropes & off with her arm around his head… SLINGSHOT BULLDOG CONNECTS! TLA is DROPPED onto the mat face-first as Brianna Hill quickly motions to cover TLA!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
Gavin Kirkman: Kick out from TLA! No quit just yet! Now Brianna has TLA where she may need him however, and she sees this as well! Brianna proceeds to drag TLA over to the corner, and she steps right over him in good measure to move upward to the second turnbuckle, now Brianna is in a good enough position of her own to exact any punishment upon TLA that will ensure he won’t get up anytime soon! Brianna is ready to employ a KNEE DROP—
Eve: TLA MUSTERED THE ENERGY TO GET UP & SHOVE Brianna OFF THE TURNBUCKLE! RIGHT ONTO THE APRON AS WELL! That was a clean counter- but it seems like there is someone who disagrees with that sentiment.
( Harper Lee sits on the commentary table, seemingly unimpressed by TLA’s display. )
Harper Lee ( off mic ): BOO! How is it taking you this long to defeat Brianna Hill, isn’t he a world Champion. God what has the company come too?
Gavin Kirkman: Harper isn’t enjoying this match but I sure am! TLA gets himself back up now just before Brianna is able to do the same, pulling herself up on the apron using the ropes as TLA sends a right of his own across Brianna’s skull! But Brianna Hill isn’t gonna let that slide, sending a fierce forearm that knocks TLA away from her for the moment…
Eve: ONLY FOR TLA TO RUSH TOWARD HER WITH A RUNNING FOREARM OF HIS OWN! Brianna is able to remain on the apron as she dismally grips onto the middle rope while slumped down into a seated position! TLA rolls himself under the ropes and onto the same apron where himself and Brianna are now situated though, and this can only go worse for one of these elitists in this match! Brianna wills herself back up to her feet as she holds onto the ropes, and sends a forearm to TLA’s way, but she’s stopped by a loud CHOP that echoes throughout the arena! TLA doesn’t relent back… AS ANOTHER ONE FOLLOWS RIGHT AFTER! Brianna is being dealt with quite the pressure here!
Deadprez: BUT NO QUIT WHATSOEVER, BECAUSE BRIANNA SENDS A FOREARM ACROSS TLA’S TEMPLE WITH PRECISION! That forearm rocks TLA to his very core there, allowing Brianna to send another firearm for equally good measure just to prevent TLA from possibly tanking through the first strike to deliver further on his onslaught! Now Brianna is looking to back away and create room between herself & TLA for the moment while she can… SHOVE TLA RIGHT INTO THE RING POST BACK-FIRST
Gavin Kirkman: Brianna managed to use the surroundings & environment to her advantage just to dish out damage while TLA’s shaking his head vigorously, turning away from Brianna to recuperate as much as he can… but now here’s Brianna… and he’s got TLA’s arms interlocked around her own from behind! Don’t tell me she’s…. BRIANNA USING ALL OF HER STRENGTH TO HOIST TLA OVER AND—
Eve: TIGER SUPLEX ONTO THE APRON! THE TIGER SUPLEX SENDS TLA LANDING ON THE APRON WITH THE BACK OF HIS NECK! TLA is slumped on the apron as Brianna’s clutching the back of her own neck, but she’s able to keep her bearings in check just to pull TLA back into the mat and rush into this cover as fast as she possibly can
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREE—
( As TLA kicks out! Ruler comes out on the stage and sits, watching from a distance. Ruler watches the match silently, studying. )
Harper Lee ( off mic ): How many weirdos are going to come out here? Why is Ruler out on the stage? Wouldn’t he want to come closer? God I’m going to be in the Chamber with idiots.
Gavin Kirkman: Things are getting a little crowded as almost the entire Chamber is out here watching TLA! Brianna remains positioned over TLA, as she repeatedly sends forearms across the back of TLA’s neck, while TLA is doing all that he can to shield his neck from the forearms! Brianna keeps on employing the attack till TLA finally musters up the strength to turn himself and shift Brianna off! Brianna gets herself up to her feet, and she rushes toward TLA looking to put her down with a missile dropkick— BUT TLA SIDESTEPS! Brianna’s clutching her lower back once more as TLA maneuvers himself behind Brianna… INTERLOCKING HER ARMS, AND NAILING THE TIGER SUPLEX SUCCESSFULLY THIS TIME!
Eve: Brianna’s now clutching the back of her own neck, but TLA is doing the exact same! They’re both being placed through all of the pressure that they can each dish out toward one another! Brianna trying all that she can to keep herself up, but TLA’s back up to his feet first as Brianna refuses to stay down… now TLA aims for the ‘VERY MEXICAN UPPERCUT’— BUT BRIANNA SENDS A RUNNING KNEE LIFT THAT KNOCKS TLA INTO THE ROPES! The running knee lift saves Brianna for the moment, these seconds are crucial for catching her breath as Brianna now takes the chance to rush toward TLA herself—
Deadprez: ONLY FOR TLA TO CATCH HER WITH ‘DESMADRE’! REBOUND SITOUT POWERBOMB IS ABLE TO CATCH BRIANNA OFF GUARD AND PUT HER DOWN! THE COVER!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREE—
Gavin Kirkman: NOPE! KICK OUT BY BRIANNA HILL! TLA isn’t looking to waste anymore time, not more than he may have throughout the match! He’s dragging Brianna over to the corner, repeatedly stomping onto her upper body now to keep her suppressed for the time being! Now TLA is making the climb up to the top of the turnbuckle, fighting through all of the pain that Brianna has put him through up until this point! TLA’s got one hell of an opportunity here to put Brianna down, and this will be quite the deciding factor for how this match shifts toward in their favor… TLA MAY BE LOOKING FOR THE ‘420’ SHOOTING STAR—
Eve: What the hell? Looks like we forgot one other person in the Chamber! Roberto, who is in the crowd!
Roberto De La Rosa ( off mic ): I got a ticket! I got a ticket!
( Roberto laughs. )
Bronson Daniels ( off mic ): Why do you need tickets? You’re on the roster, you could have just come out here.
( Roberto glares at Bronson, then slaps the popcorn out of Jon Kelton’s hands! )
Jon Kelton ( off mic ): WHAT- I didn’t say that?
( Elysium and Roberto argue at ringside. )
Harper Lee ( off mic ): Not going to lie, I forgot they were here and WHY is RULER SO FAR! Come down here, you don’t have aura!
Gavin Kirkman: All this chaos, TLA is completely distracted from this match! BRIANNA SHIFTS HER BODY WEIGHT ONTO THE ROPES! TLA slumps back down into the turnbuckle as Brianna was just moments away from possibly meeting defeat right there, but the distraction at ringside did their job! TLA is now in a very bad spot here, but Brianna’s going to take full advantage of that all for herself here! Brianna makes her way up the turnbuckle, and she proceeds to send forearms right across the jaw of TLA! Each forearm becomes exceedingly more troubling the previous, but this only continues to help Brianna further! TLA RETURNING FIRE WITH FOREARMS OF HIS OWN HOWEVER! Brianna is teetering here, but TLA is now moving himself up the turnbuckle, he may be looking to… NO WAY! ‘DESMADRE’ FROM THE TOP—
Eve: BRIANNA SHOVES TLA OFF THE TURNBUCKLE AS HE LANDS ON THE APRON! Brianna just saved herself from what could’ve truly been a disaster on her behalf!! TLA was able to catch himself though! He remains holding onto the ropes as Brianna is still occupied at the turnbuckle, facing the top of the ring post while she’s arched downward trying to catch her down breath here— ONLY TO BE MET WITH ‘CARTEL KICK’ FROM TLA! THE PELE KICK KNOCKS BRIANNA DOWN FROM THE TURNBUCKLE AND BACK ONTO THE MAT!
Deadprez: TLA now has Brianna where she’s vulnerable, and this is a rather excellent spot for TLA to exact the kind of damage that can put away Brianna Hill! TLA leaps upward to the top rope, before LEAPING OFF ONTO BRIANNA WITH A SPRINGBOARD FROG SPLA—
Gavin Kirkman: THE SUPERKICK CAUGHT TLA IN MID AIR AS HE DROPS ON THE MAT WITHOUT AVAIL! BRIANNA GOES FOR THE COVER AS THE REFEREE COUNTS!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREE—
Eve: NOTHING THERE! KICK OUT! Now Brianna is truly getting aggravated here, and she shakes her head continuously while backing away toward the corner, as she has her eyes glued onto TLA who is slowly but surely being able to bring himself into this prone state! Brianna’s eyes have only grown more incensed as the match seems to be approaching its end, and with her opponent lined up directly in her sights…. BRIANNA AIMS FOR THE ‘CRUSH CULTURE’ LIFTING ROLLING—
Gavin Kirkman: WAIT! TLA REVERSING IT AND GRABBING THE ARM! TLA MANAGING TO GET BRIANNA IN THE ‘CROSSED PATH’! THE ARMBREAKER IS LOCKED IN AND BRIANNA HAS NO PLACE TO GO! BRIANNA HAS NO CHOICE- BUT TO TAP OUT! THE MATCH IS OVER!
( DING! DING! DING! )
HERE IS YOUR WINNER…THE ANSWER WORLD CHAMPION…“LA PANTERA SEXUAL” T! L! A!!!
Eve: Despite all the chaos, despite everybody at ringside throwing this match off. TLA still managed to pick up the win, TLA looking strong among his competition!
( TLA gets handed his Championship, looking ringside at his many competitors that will be facing him in the Chamber. He lifts the Championship in the air, showing them what they are going to be fighting for. The scene fades backstage.)
(As the camera switches to the Backstage area, we are in Kennedy Street’s office with Alana Starr. Kennedy is staring face to face with none other than the former National Elite Champion, Veena Adams and her boyfriend, former World Champion, Charlie Marr.)
Veena Adams: Why are we here? Because if it is to reprimand me for what happened earlier or even last week with Miku, I will continue to do so until you give me a match with her, and then after I finish that off, I want my National Elite Championship back!
(Kennedy Street clears her throat, obviously knowing that she was going to hear this from Veena.)
Kennedy Street: Kennie doesn’t blame you for being upset after what happened at The Last Stand, you were so close to breaking the record and you did defeat Cody Maverick, but whatever SOSA Henderson or Donovan Duke do with their contracts is beyond my power, they can cash in where and when they want, and there is this feeling that everything you have done on Showdown the last few seasons here had been all for not because of what happened a few weeks ago that was beyond your control with the exception of Miku of course which you will get your hands on at Super Showdown, but you have to remember, you were the ONLY Team Captain in HISTORY to ever lead Showdown to a War Games win, Charlie Marr too.
Charlie Marr: I mean, that is true, we did make history, but what happened to Veena was an injustice and you need to fix it. Besides, we are always making history no matter what. But the fact she was robbed of even making more history, should put her as the number one contender for the National Elite Championship. And I’m sure that what you called us here for is for something big for both of us considering TLA and I almost won the Unified Tag Team Championships.
(Kennedy turns to Alana who shrugs her shoulder.)
Kennedy Street: Not exactly.
Veena Adams: NOT EXACTLY!?
(Charlie tries to calm Veena down before it gets out of hand.)
Kennedy Street: You need to listen to me, Veena. Not only were you a TWO-TIME National Elite Champion, but you led Showdown to Territorial Invasion victory, on top of that, you have been one of the most decorated female elitists in the EAW, and a re a future World Champion, you will get the chance at revenge against Miku, and you will get the opportunity to face SOSA at some point in the future, but Kennie is sure that Charlie agrees where that we both see you as a World Champion, so why continue to go after something that you have already proven to dominate in and not take that next step.
Alana Starr: She is right, Veena. We care about our roster, and we want what is best for you two, and Charlie is going to be a World Champion again, and the same goes to Veena, can you imagine girl, if you ever win a World Championship and that is the biggest fudge you to the entire EAW?
(Veena is silent for a moment, she isn’t as worked up as earlier when she thinks about it, and how the show first opened. She takes a second, looking over at Charlie who nods.)
Veena Adams: Fine, I get where you are coming from but that doesn’t mean that I’m not pissed off at what happened at The Last Stand! I should be the longest reigning National Elite Champion of all time, but aiming to a World Title would have bene the next step, but NOT until I get my hands on Miku Sakai and SOSA Henderson, especially after she attacked my girl earlier!
Kennedy Sreet: We can all appreciate this, but there is something that Kennie needs you for and if you do this for Showdown, trust us, we will reward you, when have we not?
(Veena and Charlie both look at one another, and they both nods, at least entertaining whatever it is Kennedy has to say.)
Charlie Marr: We have already brought so much to Showdown anyway, but okay, what is it?
Kennedy: Kennie is glad that you asked. At Road to Redemption there is going to be a special Tri-Brand tag team match. We already know that Voltage chose Dr. Bethany Blue and Adam Lucas, Dynasty will be making their picks soon, and Kennie has a feeling she knows who it is going to be, all that we need is a representative from Showdown and what better way to show once again how dominant this brand is by doing it again and defeating them with the superior team.
(Charlie Marr and Veena Adams were expecting more, but they instead talk amongst themselves for a second as Kennedy awaits for an answer.)
Alana Starr: Are they like really discussing it over, Kennie?
Kennedy Street: Looks at way honey.
(Finally, after about 30 seconds, Charlie and Veena turn and look back at Kennedy and Alana.)
Veena Adams: I don’t think there is any doubt that both Charlie and I should be in the Answers World Championship and Universal Women’s Elimination Chambers. We should be going after World titles not next year, but NOW. At the same time, we understand the importance of this match even if we really do not care about whatever Dynasty and Voltage are doing. We deserve BETTER.
Charlie Marr: She isn’t wrong, but we decided to do it for one reason, and that is simple, when we win, we get our just due. I get a shot at the Answers World Championship and Veena gets whatever she wants. If we have to dummy ourselves to this match, then we will be compensated for it.
Kennedy Street: Fine, win and you two can have whatever your little heart’s desire.
(The General Manager extends her hand but both Veena and Charlie do an about face and walk out. Kennedy then turns to Alana.)
Kennedy Street: So rude.
(As the camera slowly fades to the last commercial break of the night.)
(Saturday Night Showdown returns from a commercial break with ‘2nd Sucks’ by A Day To Remember playing as soon as the show is back on. All the lights go out, and smoke begins billowing on the stage with lights shining from the back as Ruler, along with a group of druids and Zariah Kennedy at his side, marches the entire entourage toward the ring.
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL AND IT’S EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER PREVIEW MATCH!… INTRODUCING FIRST!… ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY ZARIAH KENNEDY AND THE DRUIDS!…. FROM THE RESERVE IN BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS!… WEIGHING IN AT 220 POUNDS!… THE RULER OF!… EVERYTHINGGGG!!!!!!!
(All the druids and Zariah Kennedy stop by the ring as Ruler slowly enters and sits in the center, a bright light shining on him amidst the darkness, clearly illuminating his cold and composed face as he waits in the ring. ‘My War’ by Shinsei Kamattechan now plays, and the lights return to normal as Bronson Daniels walks out with Jon Kelton by his side. Kelton and Bronson tag each other’s hands before Kelton gives Daniels a supportive round of applause as he heads to the ring.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING HIS OPPONENT!… ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY JON KELTON!… FROM LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA!… WEIGHING IN AT 190 POUNDS!… THE HONORED ONE!… BRONSONNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!…. DANIELSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Bronson arrives on the apron while Kelton keeps an eye on the druids and Zariah. Bronson locks eyes with Ruler, who begins to rise to his feet and stands at the end of the ring. Both still remember the last time they shared the ring together, and tonight they’re ready to walk down memory lane as Bronson enters the ring and stays in his corner, preparing for the match to begin.)
(DING DING DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: The main event has finally begun between Ruler and Bronson Daniels! These two have a history, dating back to last year when they faced each other at Operation Doomsday in Dynasty. Tonight, both men are set to enter the Extreme Elimination Chamber, and this match serves as a preview of what we can expect from them in their current condition.
Eve: We’ve got druids and Zariah Kennedy surrounding the ring, and Kelton backing up Bronson Daniels, just as we saw last time when Elysium had to deal with Ruler’s druids and any Rulerists chasing after them.
Deadprez: Match is underway as both men stare each other down, locking up in a collar-and-elbow tie-up but Ruler quickly grabs one of Bronson’s ears, faking him out, before tossing him back first into the corner!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler attempts to run in and attack Bronson in the corner, but Bronson moves out of the way, sending the Revolutionizer into the corner instead and landing a sharp chop across his chest!
Eve: Daniels follows up with an uppercut to Ruler’s chin and another, keeping Ruler trapped in the corner. Bronson takes a step back… then presses Ruler further into the corner with a Running Back Elbow Smash!
Deadprez: Daniels now swings his right hand and landing another chop across Ruler’s chest, followed by a punch to Ruler’s jaw! Ruler remains defenseless, and Bronson immediately sends him rolling to the mat with a Snapmare, aiming to follow up with a Jumping Dropkick to the back of his head!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler moves out of the way, causing Daniels to miss. Ruler pushes himself back to his feet, attempting to take Daniels’ head off with a Yes Kick!
Eve: Daniels ducks under the kick and shoves Ruler toward the ropes, forcing Ruler to bounce off them….BRONSON LOOKS TO SURPRISE RULER WITH THE FINISH! MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF, BUT RULER MANAGES TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY TO AVOID THAT ELBOW JUST AS BRONSON LEAPS BACK! That was incredibly close!
Bronson Daniels: (Off-Mic) Come on, man.
Eve: Ruler, who dropped to the ground, sees Bronson gesturing at him with a taunting, hating being told what to do, immediately pushes himself to his feet and confronts Bronson with a Clothesline!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson catches Ruler’s incoming arm just before it connects and attempts to seize him for an Irish whip, but Ruler counters, twisting Bronson’s arm used for the whip and pulling Daniels in, driving him to the ground with a Belly-to-Back Suplex!
Deadprez: Daniels quickly drives his right elbow repeatedly onto the top of Ruler’s head as Ruler attempts a Belly-to-Back Suplex, eventually forcing Ruler to release him!
Eve: Bronson anticipates what Ruler might try next and, after escaping, pushes Ruler away, ending up near the ropes and staying cautious of the druids. Bronson charges back at Ruler… BUT RULER HITS RUNNING BRONSON WITH A BICYCLE KICK RIGHT ACROSS HIS CHIN, KNOCKING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels refuses to stay down! He’s showing fighting spirit and asking for more. Ruler swings a right hook, but Bronson lowers his head down to avoid… ONLY TO LEAVE AN OPENING FOR RULER, WHO IMMEDIATELY PLANTS HIM WITH A SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB AS HE LEAPS OVER BRONSON’S BACK!
Deadprez: SMART THINKING! RULER FOLLOWS THROUGH WITH A PIN ON BRONSON AFTER THE POWERBOMB!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: Bronson Daniels powers out at 2! Daniels might have been able to hold his own with some good exchanges against Ruler at the beginning, but now his opponent is striking back with power.
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels rolls away and tries to push himself up after the powerbomb, but Ruler rises to the occasion once again. The Revolutionizer walks toward Bronson, who’s already on his knees, and immediately drives his knee into Bronson’s limb, putting him down even further!
Eve: Ruler then presses the same knee against the injured limb, with the referee closely watching both men. Ruler releases the knee and steps over to Bronson… delivering a single foot stomp on the same limb he’s been targeting, causing Daniels to cry out in pain! He’s starting to exploit a weakness by creating one!
Deadprez: Ruler has been gaining the advantage throughout the match and now lifts Bronson back to his feet. Ruler tosses his opponent into the corner behind him and charges toward Bronson!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels counters the incoming attack with a right boot across Ruler’s jaw, sending him stumbling back! Bronson climbs up to the second rope… BUT RULER HITS A DROPKICK, SENDING BRONSON OFF THE ROPE AND CRASHING DOWN ONTO THE EDGE OF THE APRON!!!
Eve: Bronson lies there after the sudden attack by Ruler, who anticipated his movements better than expected. Bronson slowly rolls off the apron to the outside of the ring, ending up leaning against the barricade. Kelton keeps an eye on the druids nearby, ready in case they interfere while standing around him. Ruler gets back to his feet and quickly charges toward Bronson the moment he’s up… RULER COLLIDES WITH BRONSON ON THE OUTSIDE WITH A SUICIDE DIVE! HE MEETS HIM DOWN THERE WITH IMPACT!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: It’s not a great look for the former World Heavyweight Champion to be handled like this in such a tight situation against his former rival, whom he’ll soon face inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber. Ruler picks up Bronson once again, rolling him back into the ring after the attack. Ruler follows him inside after connecting with the Suicide Dive and rolls Bronson over, attempting a cover!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson manages to kick out at two yet again! Ruler still hasn’t been able to put him down, but he may be close! Ruler glances at Jon Kelton on the outside for a brief moment before slowly rising to his feet and positioning himself in the corner, waiting for a chance to strike.
Eve: Bronson Daniels, pushing through the pain, is trying to make a comeback, and you can hear the crowd beginning to clap in rhythm, cheering him on. Ruler suddenly rushes out of the corner… POSSIBLY LOOKING TO PUT BRONSON DOWN WITH THE RV1!!!!!
Deadprez: Bronson counters with a Superkick to Ruler’s running legs, causing him to trip and fall to the ground! Ruler drops to his knees, and Bronson moves in from behind… A HOOK KICK CONNECTS TO THE SIDE OF RULER’S HEAD WHILE HE’S ALREADY DOWN!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson then pulls Ruler up with a waistlock… A GERMAN SUPLEX BY BRONSON DANIELS ON RULER!!!!!!!! BRONSON TRANSITIONS THE GERMAN SUPLEX INTO A BRIDGING PINFALL! SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler is the one powering out at the two-count after that combination of moves! Daniels quickly steps back after managing to put Ruler down. Bronson pulls himself up using the middle rope, staying by the corner.
Eve: He looks back at Ruler and begins charging up his elbow, as Ruler, now pushing through the pain, tries to get back up. Bronson has his opponent locked in his sights and charges out of the corner!… FOR FRONT VARIATION OF MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Not this time! Ruler connects with an uppercut as Bronson charges toward him, sending Bronson stumbling back into the corner! Ruler immediately looks to follow up with another uppercut to keep Bronson down, but Bronson makes a quick escape, moving sideways out of the corner and causing Ruler to collide with the turnbuckles instead!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels moves in from behind, grabbing Ruler and tying up both his arms before leaping onto his back… DANIELS CONNECTS WITH THE STRAIGHT JACKET BACKSTABBER, SNAPPING RULER IN HALF AND LEAVING HIM IN AGONY!!!!!!
Eve: Daniels has a second chance to take down Ruler from the corner! He moves back toward the corner, gathering his energy as the crowd hypes up, sensing that Bronson Daniels might soon clinch a victory in this main event.
Deadprez: Ruler’s back is still in pain from the backstabber, and Bronson is setting him up for the win! BRONSON LEAPS OUT OF THE CORNER FOR THE CELESTIAL WHIRLWIND!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT NOBODY’S HOME! Ruler quickly returns to his feet, rushing toward the corner Bronson just leapt from, and charges forward… RULER DROPS HIM HARD WITH A RUNNING SLINGBLADE, QUICKLY GRABBING BRONSON BY THE NECK AND BRINGING HIM DOWN!
Eve: Bronson falls to the ground after the Slingblade from Ruler and stumbles as he tries to get back to his feet, setting himself up for another attack. Ruler rises as well, facing Bronson, and immediately strikes Bronson’s calf with a side kick, followed by right and left hooks from both sides
Deadprez: RULER SPINS AROUND QUICKLY FOR A SPINNING BACKFIST, CONNECTING PRECISELY AND STUNNING DANIELS, THEN TURNS BACK ONE LAST TIME!!!!… RULER FLOORS BRONSON COMPLETELY WITH A DISCUS CLOTHESLINE! RULER DROPS INTO A COVER ON BRONSON DANIELS!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: And still, Bronson Daniels manages to kick out at two yet again after enduring Ruler’s continuous striking attacks!
Gavin Kirkland: Great back and forth from these two so far, but Ruler keeps trying to keep Bronson in line anytime he tries to push beyond his limits. Ruler pushes himself up from the ground and looks back at Daniels, possibly signaling the finish. He begins to lift Daniels off the mat… SETTING HIM UP FOR THE WILL OF NICHOLAS DDT!!!!!
Eve: NO! Ruler is unable to connect, as Bronson shoves him away by the gut with both hands just as Ruler goes for his signature DDT! Ruler tries to approach again, but BRONSON IMMEDIATELY CONNECTS WITH A PUMP KICK, SENDING RULER DOWN TO THE MAT!!!!
Deadprez: Ruler, still on both knees, attempts to push himself back up, but Bronson isn’t letting it happen!… STANDING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP BY BRONSON DANIELS, STRIKING RULER WITH FORCE!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler has already been dropped hard to the mat by the Double Foot Stomp from Bronson Daniels, following the Pump Kick that took him down, but Bronson is looking to lay down even more offense on Ruler!… FLYING BRONSONS!!!!! A STANDING SHOOTING STAR PRESS RIGHT ON TOP OF RULER!!!!! BRONSON COVERS!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler kicks out at two, narrowly avoiding a close call!
Eve: Bronson Daniels has the upper hand in this match, especially after hitting his signature move against Ruler. Daniels grabs both of Ruler’s feet and underhooks his arms, dragging him back to his feet… DANIELS LOCKS HIM IN, LOOKING TO END THE REVOLUTIONIZER WITH SAVAGE MODE!
Deadprez: RULER ESCAPES THE HOLD, TWISTING BRONSON’S ARM OUT IN FRONT OF HIM… RULER TURNS BACK AND ATTEMPTS TO KNOCK BRONSON OUT WITH A QUICK REVOLUTIONIZER KICK!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels manages to duck under the kick, ending up right behind Ruler, and quickly drives him toward the ropes by pushing him forward. Ruler, after missing the kick, ends up on the apron!
Eve: Daniels tries to approach, but Ruler stops him with a kick, sending Daniels stumbling back into the ring, followed by an elbow strike! Daniels stumbles toward the center of the ring, while Ruler grabs the rope tightly and prepares to launch himself back in—possibly going for a Springboard Knee Strike!
Deadprez: BUT BRONSON IMMEDIATELY KNOCKS RULER OFF THE TOP ROPE WITH A DROPKICK, SENDING HIM TO THE OUTSIDE!!!!!!!!! HOWEVER, THE DRUIDS ARE THERE TO CATCH RULER, SAVING HIM FROM THE FALL!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels scrambles back to his feet, wasting no time as he heads toward the ropes in front of him and springs off!… BRONSON LEAPS UP TO THE TOP CORNER AND FLIES OFF!!!!!!! TRUST FALL BY BRONSON DANIELS, SENDING ALL THE DRUIDS CRASHING INTO EACH OTHER BUT IT DOESN’T LAND ON RULER, WHO MANAGES TO GET OUT OF THE WAY JUST IN TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Ruler quickly seizes the chance to sneak back into the ring, while Jon Kelton tries to alert Bronson that his opponent is already back inside and could be planning something wicked. Daniels nods, heeding Kelton’s warning, and slides into the ring… RULER IMMEDIATELY SEIZES HIM, DRILLING BRONSON’S HEAD WITH THE BLOODRAYNE MAKER!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: BRONSON, THINKING QUICKLY, TAKES RULER DOWN WITH AN IMMEDIATE DROP TOE HOLD, DRIVING RULER NECK FIRST INTO THE MIDDLE ROPE AND LEAVING HIM STUNNED! Daniels rolls back to his feet and launches himself toward the ropes, rebounding toward Ruler’s position for a TIGER FEINT KICK!
Gavin Kirkland: But it’s a swing and a miss, as Bronson ends up kicking the air and stands back up from the missed attack. Ruler gets to his feet, walking straight toward him… SEIZING HIM AND LOOKING FOR A SECOND ATTEMPT AT THE BLOODRAYNE MAKER!!!!!!!!
Eve: BUT BRONSON TAKES CONTROL, USING THE SAME POSITION TO ATTEMPT AN STO BACKBREAKER TO BREAK RULER’S BACK IN HALF BUT RULER COUNTERS WITH REPEATED ELBOWS TO THE SIDE OF BRONSON’S HEAD, KEEPING HIM AT A DISTANCE AND PREVENTING THE ATTACK!
Deadprez: Bronson fails to secure Ruler for the STO backbreaker as Ruler turns his back and tries to run toward the ropes!… BUT BRONSON IMMEDIATELY SHUTS RULER’S WILD EYES WITH A BELL CLAP FROM BEHIND!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler doesn’t flinch with Bronson’s attack, turning back around to respond with a chop, but Bronson quickly kips up after taking the hard chop, swinging for an Enzuigiri across Ruler’s head but he misses!
Eve: Bronson drops hard to both knees, and Ruler rises from behind, seizing Bronson by the waist and pulling him back to his feet!…. RULER PLANTS BRONSON WITH THE DEAFTLIFT GERMAN SUPLEX BRIDING INTO A COVER ON BRONSON! WHAT AN EXCHANGE INTO A HIGH IMPACT MOVE RULER GOT THERE! HE GOES FOR A COVER!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Eve: BRONSON DANIELS POWERS OUT AT TWO!
Gavin Kirkland: It’s been a great back-and-forth between these two, and the outcome is hard to predict so far. Bronson has been trying to point out that Ruler hasn’t changed much since their last encounter, but he’s here to shift that narrative by proving Ruler wrong about him.
Deadprez: Daniels reaches for both feet, pushing through the pain from the German Suplex he took from Ruler. Meanwhile, Ruler taunts and prepares to end this soon, waiting for the right moment to strike. Bronson is already on spaghetti legs, and the chance is right here!… RULER SWINGS FOR THE REVOLUTIONIZER KICK!!!!!!!!
Eve: BRONSON MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER THE KICK AND IMMEDIATELY LEAPS TOWARD HIS OPPONENT FROM BEHIND!!!…. SNAP HAMMERLOCK BACK SUPLEX BY BRONSON DANIELS, DRIVING RULER NECK-FIRST TO THE GROUND!—
Gavin Kirkland: BUT THE STUBBORN RULER REFUSES TO STAY DOWN AND GETS BACK TO HIS FEET RIGHT AFTER THE SUPLEX, APPROACHING BRONSON WITH A RUSH OF ADRENALINE!–
Eve: SPANISH FLY!!!!!!! BRONSON COUNTERS RULER’S CHARGE WITH A SPANISH FLY, TAKING HIM DOWN! BRONSON DROPS INTO A COVER RIGHT ON TOP OF RULER THIS TIME!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: RULER STILL KICKS OUT AT TWO!!!!!!
Deadprez: Bronson rolls away, getting to his feet and moving toward the corner, possibly preparing for another one of his iconic signature moves! Daniels readies himself for the attack from the corner as Ruler slowly gets back to his feet… DANIELS FLIPS OUT OF THE CORNER FOR THE CELE— WHAT THE HELL??
Gavin Kirkland: OH!!!! ONE OF THE DRUIDS FROM EARLIER ON THE OUTSIDE JUST RAN IN AND TOOK THE BULLET FOR RULER!!! THE KADIAK KICK BY BRONSON HITS THE DRUID INSTEAD!!!
Eve: Here comes another druid entering the ring, trying to attack, but Bronson quickly ducks under the druid’s swinging arm!… BATMAN PUNCH FROM BRONSON DANIELS, SENDING THAT DRUID SPINNING!…
Deadprez: KELTON ENTERS THE RING WITH THE ANTI-LIFE EQUATION!!! FIREMAN’S CARRY INTO A MODIFIED URANAGE BY KELTON, TAKING THAT DRUID DOWN IN SEAMLESS ORDER! ELYSIUM IS HERE TO CLEAR THE RING!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Here comes another druid, and now they’re bringing backup! Two druids enter, both trying to attack Bronson and Kelton at the same time, but Kelton immediately knocks one down, leaving them stumbling!
Eve: The other druid struggles against Bronson’s repeated punches, and Bronson lifts them up right after!… AFTERIMAGE!!! BRONSON WITH HOLLOW POINT AND THE PENALTY KICK FROM JON KELTON COMPLETELY ANNIHILATES THAT DRUID!!!!!!
Deadprez: Watch out, Bronson!…
Gavin Kirkland: OH NO!!!! RULER TRIES TO ATTACK BRONSON WITH THE REVOLUTIONIZER, BUT INSTEAD HE KNOCKS OUT KELTON, WHO’S RIGHT BEHIND HIM!!!!!! RULER JUST TOOK OUT THE WRONG PERSON!!!!!
Eve: And now Bronson seizes the opportunity, turning toward the ropes and charging back at Ruler, who’s still trying to recover after hitting the wrong target… CELESTIAL WHIRLWIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RULER IS DOWN!!! BRONSON DANIELS HOOKS THE LEG FOR A COVER ON RULER!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!—
Eve: NO! TWO COUNT! RULER STILL MANAGES TO KICK OUT OF ANOTHER ONE OF BRONSON’S SIGNATURE MOVES! HE’S STILL IN THIS MATCH AFTER ALL OF THAT!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniels quickly heads down toward the corner where he began, raising his right arm and aiming at Ruler’s head as Ruler slowly tries to get back up! Daniels is preparing for Mickey, I Knocked Your Head Off—
Deadprez: Zariah is attempting to grab his leg to prevent him from moving! Bronson is distracted, trying to fend him off. He quickly turns back toward Ruler and charges at him, ready to finish him off as soon as he gets back to his feet!… RULER WITH A DROPKICK TO BOTH LEGS, TAKING BRONSON DOWN TO HIS KNEES INSTEAD!
Eve: RULER WITH A DROPKICK TO BOTH LEGS, TAKING BRONSON DOWN TO HIS KNEES INSTEAD!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler has grounded his opponent and gets back to his feet, launching himself off the ropes and charging back toward Bronson… SPACE CADET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SWIVELING BRONSON’S HEAD INTO THE CANVAS!!!!!!!!! THE HURRICANRANA DRIVER CONNECTS!!!!!!!!! BRONSON WAS DISTRACTED, AND NOW HE’S BEEN TAKEN DOWN! RULER GOES FOR THE COVER!!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREE—
Gavin Kirkland: NO! NO! Still only a two-count from the referee! Bronson Daniels manages to kick out of the Space Cadet just in time, and Ruler still needs to find a way to finish this off! Ruler steps out of the ring and may be looking to put Bronson down for good!
Deadprez: Bronson has been weakened by Ruler’s relentless offense so far, and now Ruler heads up to the top, possibly looking to fly off! Bronson has only made it to his knees, and Ruler isn’t looking to waste any more time… IMAGINARY COLORS ON BRONSON!!!!!!
Eve: Ruler attempts a Top Rope Diving Leg Drop, but it’s a miss as Bronson moves to the center, rolling out of the way! Bronson leans against the corner, and Ruler quickly approaches with a running attack!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson instead pops Ruler onto the second rope and immediately drives a Pump Kick to one of his legs, forcing Ruler into a seated position on the ropes! Daniels wastes no time, going up to the second rope and preparing for his next move!—
Deadprez: TREE OF WOE SPRINGBOARD DOUBLE FOOT STOMP BY BRONSON DANIELS IN A DESPERATE FASHION, TAKING DOWN THE REVOLUTIONIZER!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Daniels immediately tosses Ruler out of the corner, sending him rolling onto his knees right in front of him! Ruler watches as Bronson prepares to deliver the final blow, and Bronson charges forward… MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF RIGHT ACROSS HIS JAW!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: But Ruler ducks at the very last second, just as the elbow is about to connect! Ruler quickly gets to his feet, and Bronson attempts the elbow again—
Deadprez: RULER USES THE REFEREE AS A SHIELD, FORCING BRONSON TO STOP THE ATTACK!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson pushes the referee out of the way and tries to approach Ruler!… RULER PAINTS HIS OPPONENT WITH THE BLACK MIST, IMMEDIATELY COVERING BRONSON’S FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: RULER ROLLS HIM DOWN INTO A SMALL PACKAGE COVER!!!!!!! HE’S GOT HIM!!!!!!!!! THIS IS IT!!!!!!!! RULER’S TACTIC MIGHT HELP HIM DEFEAT THE FORMER WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!—
Eve: BUT EVEN AFTER THAT, BRONSON STILL KICKS OUT, FIGHTING THROUGH THE PAIN OF THE BLACK MIST COVERING HIS VISION AND BLINDING HIM! RULER GROWS MORE FURIOUS AS NOTHING SEEMS TO BE WORKING IN HIS FAVOR!
Gavin Kirkland: But that’s good enough for Ruler to finish this off! Bronson is already in pain from the black mist, and Ruler is looking to put an end to this by grabbing Bronson Daniels!
Deadprez: Daniels struggles to his feet, but Ruler is ready to seize the opportunity and finish this! Daniels has no choice but to face defeat now! Ruler seizes him!… BLOODRAYNE MAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: GODBREAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COUNTER! COUNTER! BRONSON IS STILL DESPERATE TO WIN, SUDDENLY NAILING RULER WITH ONE OF HIS OWN SIGNATURES JUST AS RULER HAD HIM LOCKED IN FOR THE SWINGING REVERSE STO!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler is hit with a Double Knee Facebreaker and goes down to the mat! Daniels struggles to get back to his feet, but the chance is right here! He begins to see a little clearer as the effects of the black mist start to fade.
Deadprez: Daniels positions himself in the corner, ready to end this! Ruler is barely getting back to his feet, still stunned from the facebreaker! Bronson is looking to finish it off!… MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF!!! HE CONNECTS DIRECTLY TO THE BACK OF RULER’S HEAD!!!!!!!!!! RULER IS DOWN!!!!!!! BRONSON GOES FOR THE COVER!!!!!!!!!!!–
Eve: Too many druids are entering the ring now that Ruler has been taken down! Four, five, six… too many to count as they all jump on Bronson Daniels at the same time!
Gavin Kirkland: The referee tries to see what’s going on, but both competitors are covered by druids attacking Bronson! The referee has no choice but to throw this match out! We won’t get a clear result tonight!
(DING DING DING DING DING DING DING!)
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: The main event scene has been completely ruined by these mindless minions causing chaos all around!
Deadprez: Someone needs to put a stop to this now! Kelton tries to enter the ring, but more druids are jumping on him as well! This is not looking good for Elysium at all!
(‘Ambitionz az a Ridah’ by Tupac suddenly hits.)
Gavin Kirkland: OH YES!!!!!!!!
Eve: TLA! The EAW Answers World Champion is here, and he’s rushing down with Roberto De La Rosa, charging straight into the ring! Here we go—things are about to get cleaned up!
Deadprez: Two druids run toward both men at the same time, trying to get their hands on them, but Roberto and TLA take them out simultaneously! Another pair of druids charges at TLA, but he quickly kicks one in the gut… MEXICAN DESTROYER, SPIKING THAT DRUID’S HEAD TO THE GROUND!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Here comes another druid swinging a right hand at Roberto, but Roberto ducks under and bounces off the ropes… SPEAR!!!!!!!!! TALON DE ÁGUILA SLICING THAT DRUID IN HALF!!!!!!!!
Eve: More druids are trying to attack both men, but Elysium is now joining forces, helping them take the druids out as well! There’s absolute chaos going on right now!!!!!
(All four men join together to clear the ring of druids, with Ruler and Zariah Kennedy regrouping on the outside, helping each other up and looking back at the four standing united in the ring. The four men glance at one another, ready for whatever comes next.)
Gavin Kirkland: All five men, including Ruler on the outside, are going to be competing inside the Chamber! This is simply a preview of what’s soon going to unfold at Road to Redemption! Bronson Daniels, Jon Kelton, Roberto De La Rosa, TLA, Ruler…

Gavin Kirkland: … and oh, how could I forget! Harper Lee is also here!
(Harper Lee steps out onto the stage, watching the others in the ring. All eyes turn to her as she makes her entrance… but she doesn’t do anything, simply crossing her arms and observing them from afar.)
Gavin Kirkland: And here we have it! All six elitists who will be competing inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber at Showdown for the Answers World Championship! What a fantastic night this has been. For now, on behalf of myself, Gavin Kirkland, along with Eve and Deadprez, we bid you adieu! Have a great evening, ladies and gentlemen!
(Harper stands tall on the stage, watching each person, while the others are still looking at one another as Saturday Night Showdown comes to a close. All six elitists stand tall, eyeing each other from different positions with a smirk on her face to end the show.)
