Showdown 11/22/25

Showdown 11/22/25

(EAW Intro Plays)

(There is no recap of what happened at The Last Stand, instead Kennedy Street is standing in the ring right now alone as the crowd cheers, she doesn’t look happy at all with what has transpired.)

Deadprez: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Showdown, we apologize for no rundown but Kennedy Street, our GM was already out here ready to speak on what happened at The Last Stand. She is not happy, and neither is the EAW Universe.

Eve: Oh, Social Media is fuming about what happened at the Temple of Trials match and how Silas World continues to grow, it is scary. But the question all week was what happens now, and it looks like Kennedy wants to waste no time.

Gavin Kirkland: I think once we accept the truth, that Silas World is growing and the most important faction in wrestling, the better.

(The camera pans to Kennedy Street who has a lot on her mind, standing in the middle of the ring ready to address the fans.)

Kennedy Street: Things did not go the way Kennie had planned at The Last Stand, honey. It had nothing to do with the ability of the team that was put together to face off against Silas World. Daryl Kinkade, Impact, Auburn Ware, and Impact did their job and were in a position to win when Silas Mason decided to recruit more people into the fold and have them help him win.

(The crowd boos loudly hearing that.)

Kennedy Street: Thinking about it pisses Kennie off, but there is nothing that can be done to go back and change the outcome, but what can be done is how we respond and continue moving forward from here on Showdown. Silas Mason is a cancer, and Kennie blames herself for bringing him here, as he used to be my manager when wrestling, and let’s face it, he is a wrestling genius.

(Even though she feels that is true, the fans didn’t agree and boo some more.)

Kennedy Street: But the thing is, Kennie has seen this before. Silas Mason is like a cancer, a horde of locusts, pestilence even, and he will come through and eat away at the foundation of a company until he gets what he wants. Here on Showdown though, that is not going to happen, honey. Instead, we are going to stand steadfast and continue through the season giving you the fans the best wrestling experience ever. We will –

(But before she can finish, “Enemy” by From Ashes to New starts to play throughout the arena. The crowd starts to boo as Silas Mason walks out with Donovan Duke. There is no one else there with him, just Donovan as Kennedy’s amber eyes narrow some.)

Deadprez: And we knew this was coming, Silas Mason interrupting Kennedy Street but he is not coming out with all of Silas World, he is coming out with only Donovan Duke.

Eve: I don’t know what the meaning of this means, but we are about to find out, and it looks like Silas has quite a bit on his mind.

Gavin Kirkland: Everyone knows that when Silas speaks, people listen!

(Silas and Donovan make it to the ring, and they both step in as the theme fades.)

Silas Mason: Kennedy, Kennedy, my sweet Kennedy, I am glad that at least the expression of shock and disbelief is no longer carved in your face like it was at The Last Stand. I didn’t come out here to brag, because let’s face it, Kennedy, Silas World outsmarted you and we made you look pretty stupid. I am sure that you should have expected this, and yet there is one piece that you are missing in all of this.

Kennedy Street: What s that, Silas?

Silas Mason: The Extreme Elimination Chamber. See, let’s be honest, we both know that all of these matches that you have booked as qualifying for the Extreme Elimination Chamber are bogus. It should be Veena Adams vs. Donovan Duke, Harper Lee, Vincent Mondrian, Brianna Hill, and Pandora Paisley.

(Kennedy can only roll her eyes listening to this nonsense.)

Kennedy Street: I don’t think so, besides I –

(And before she can finish her sentence, “7Rings” by Arianna Grande starts to play throughout the arena as the crowd begins to cheer. Suddenly Veena Adams walks out with the Answers World Championship over her shoulder as she heads to the ring.)

Deadprez: The Answers World Champion is here! And after her successful title defense in that hellacious war with Xander Payne, Veena Adams has heard enough! She knows that in one month Road to Redemption is here, and she will have to walk into that monstrosity of a Chamber!

Eve: And by the looks of it, she doesn’t care! She is ready for anything and look at the sneer disgust on her face!

Gavin Kirkland: And even then she is still beautiful!

(Veena slides into the ring with the Answers World Championship and has her own mic as the theme dies down standing next to Kennedy Street.)

Veena Adams: Enough talk from Uggo World. I have heard you in the back for the last few minutes and frankly like everyone else, I am sick of it. I have been defending this Answers World Championship against the very best, Hall of Famers, legends… and Donovan Duke.

(The crowd laughs some as Donovan Duke takes that as a snide remark, she looks over to him and smirks before continuing.)

Veena Adams: There is nothing that I would want more than slap the taste out of both of your mouths right now, and considering that now I am done taking care of those challengers, I can focus all of my attention right at you two and the rest of Silas World. You want to talk  and spit out about Road to Redemption and stack the deck against me, go right ahead, I don’t care!

(The fans stand at their feet and cheer, but Kennedy quickly intervenes.)

Kennedy Street: That is not going to be necessary. See, Silas, Vincent Mondrian is already in the chamber, and I am going to assume that he is under you now.

Silas Mason: Vincent and I have a working agreement, yes.

Kennedy Street: And later tonight, you have Brianna Hill taking on Bea Valentine with the opportunity to have TWO members of Silas World in, right?

Silas Mason: That is right, yes.

Kennedy Street: Okay, well, since there is ONE chamber spot open, you could actually have THREE Silas World members in the Chamber, would that be sufficient?

(Silas just smiles as does Donovan Duke.)

Silas Mason: I believe so, yes.

Kennedy Street: Good, then YOU choose, since you won at The Last Stand, I will allow you to pick ONE more member of Silas World into the Extreme Elimination Chamber.

(Silas stops for a moment, he knows there are three capable individuals that he can throw in there, turning to look over at Donovan Duke who nods.)

Silas Mason: Fine… that is easy, DONOVAN DUKE!

(The crowd boos as Veena Adams cracks a smirk, Kennedy then nods.,)

Kennedy Street: Then t is settled, Donovan Duke is in The Chamber.

(Kennedy starts to walk off, but then she stops while Veena holds up the Answers World Championship.)

Kennedy Street: Oh…. one more thing, honey.

Silas Mason: What is that?

Kennedy Street: Good luck trying to explain your decision to Pandora.

(Kennedy drops the mic as “7Rings” starts to play throughout the arena. Silas stops and realizes what she had just said, looking over at Donovan Duke. Veen just waves and walks out with Kennedy when the scene switches to the back and shows a very angry Pandora Paisley looking on the monitor next to Harper Lee, Vincent Mondrian, and Brianna Hill. She then storms off.)

Deadprez: SHUCKY DUCKY QUACK QUACK! It looks like Silas has some explaining to do!

Eve: Kennedy gave him the option, and he chose Donovan Duke without hesitation, so we will see him in the chamber!

Gavin Kirkland: She did not look happy!

(Silas just stands there, but he looks at Donovan, and they talk as it cuts to a commercial break.) 

(The camera cuts to Gina Romano in the ring.)

Gina Romano: The following contest is a LAST CHANCE Triple Threat match to earn a spot in the Answers World Championship Elimination Chamber match!!!

(chAngE – miwa hits to cheers from the crowd.)

Gina Romano: Introducing first, he is one half of Showtime… AKARIIIIIIIII KIYOKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Eve: Many people thought that Akari was the favorite to win the match at The Last Stand and feel cheated he didn’t win!

Deadprez: Unfortunately nobody could account for the treachery of Silas World!

Gavin Kirkland: Well they are lucky they are getting a second chance. Most people don’t even get one chance let alone a second. They should all be giving a thank you to the Showdown management for real!

( “Rubber Band Man” by T.I. hits to cheers from the crowd.)

Gina Romano: Introducing second, also one half of Showtime… DAMIEN KUTCHERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

Eve: It is notable that neither of these two men were actually pinned in the match at The Last Stand. They took themselves out of the equation before Matthew Kazama was defeated by Vincent Mondrian by illegal means.

Gavin Kirkland: Nobody cares. Silas did what was needed! Showtime? More like Salttime amirite?

Deadprez: Unotrite. Not rite at all…

Gavin Kirkland: ???

Eve: Damien Kutcher is out to prove he is the power behind Showtime and Akari Kiyoko or Matthew Kazama makes no difference to him he will run through everyone to get that World Title shot!

( ‘Save You’ by YUTA hits to cheers from the crowd. )

Gina Romano: Introducing third, he is MATTHEW “SILVER” KAZAMAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Eve: Matthew Kazama got screwed over hard at The Last Stand! Many people think he had that match won!

Deadprez: That may be the case but Showtime feels the only reason he almost won that match was because of their actions and tonight they plan to show him that was nothing but a fluke!

Gavin Kirkland: I feel like they all lost and shouldn’t even get this opportunity. They will probably just lose again in the Chamber anyway.

Eve: Well we don’t know that Gavin so stfu.

(DING! DING! DING!)

Eve: This match is underway as all three of these men are stepping up to each other in the middle of the ring. This is a rematch of their encounter at The Last Stand minus the winner of that match. This is their last chance to get into that chamber! Let’s gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Deadprez: Akari Kiyoko and Matthew Kazama go to lock up in the middle of the ring! But Damien immediately blindsides Kazama from behind! Akari and Damien now double teaming Kazama in the middle of the ring stomping away at their downed opponent. This is probably what we should have expected from this match. Showtime is turning this into a two on one beatdown!

Eve: Akari grabs the leg of Kazama and locks him into a Figure 4 Leglock! And Damien is stomping on Kazama as he is in the hold! But this could be bad for Damien if Kazama were to submit here right away as his partner Akari would get the win! You have to imagine that Damien doesn’t want that. But for now he seems content just doing some damage to Kazama!-

Deadprez: Kazama gets to the ropes grabbing them with both of his arms and the break is forced! Damien grabs the leg of Kazama and yanks him away from the ropes! Damien drops an elbow down hard on the leg of Kazama and then applies the Heel Hook! Damien following up on that Figure 4 as it looks like Showtime is trying to take the legs out from under Kazama! Damien yanks Kazama back up!-

Gavin Kirkland: Kazama out of nowhere with a Small Package! Kazama with the steal!

Referee: ONNNNNNN-

Eve: But Akari Kiyoko with the quick thinking immediately breaks it up getting back onto the attack on Kazama! Akari picks up Kazama and Body Slams him down hard in the middle of the squared circle. Damien with a Snapmare Takedown on Kazama as Akari then applies a bodyscissors across the throat and head of Kazama. Akari keeping Kazama grounded and in control to prevent any more surprises like that Small Package. Kazama is having the air flow cut off from his lungs making it hard to breath as he tries to rotate his body towards the ropes but Damien kicks him back into position. Kazama with the shoulders down!

Referee: ONNNNNNNN-

Deadprez: But Kazama immediately realizes that is not good and kicks out! He rotates himself yet again ignoring the kicks from Damien and manages to get onto his stomach! Kazama kicks backwards and hits Damien in the knee causing him to fall backwards! Kazama then does a headstand before pushing out with his arms to get out of the bodyscissors and freeing himself! Kazama is on his feet!

Eve: Damien rushes in with a Clothesline but Kazama ducks it!-

Deadprez: And Damien just took the head off his partner there! Shades of The Last Stand as Showtime inadvertently hits the wrong person! Damien tries to stop to help Akari but Kazama is already looking to take advantage and hits a Dropkick sending Damien through the ropes to the outside of the ring!

Gavin Kirkland: Kazama rushes through the ropes and connects with a Suicide Dive! Kazama taking out Damien here! He then rolls back into the ring to go after Akari! I can’t believe that Kazama might actually be overcoming what is essentially a Handicap Match here tonight!

Eve: But Akari blindsides Kazama as soon as he gets back into the ring! A Running Lariat takes Kazama’s head off knocking him down to the mat. Akari grabs Kazama and wrestles him into a Side Headlock but Kazama slips out of it right away and goes around grabbing Akari from behind and throws him back with a German Suplex! But Akari manages to slip out of it and rolls around beside Kazama grabbing the leg in an attempted takedown. But Kazama kicks Akari away into the corner as Akari slowly gets back up to his feet. Akari rushes in but Kazama ducks around behind him and takes him down with a wrestling toss into a Side Headlock. Damien is now rolling back into the ring slowly as he kicks Kazama into the corner and begins to stomp a mudhole into him! Akari rushes in and begins to throw kicks as well. Looks like we are back to the double team beatdown that Kazama has been forced to endure most of this match thus far.

Deadprez: Kutcher pulls Kazama back up and throws him like a lawn dart towards Kiyoko who hits him with a hard European Uppercut knocking him down to the mat motionless. Kutcher then grabs Kazama and tosses him out of the ring sending him flying over the top rope! Kazama crashes and burns on the outside as both Kutcher and Kiyoko wipe their hands clean of one opponent who has seemingly been neutralized here tonight!

Eve: And now Akari Kiyoko and Damien Kutcher turn towards each other! It looks like the plan has been successful so far! They got rid of Matthew Kazama and now they can focus on determining who the better man is between themselves!

Deadprez: Kutcher and Kiyoko lock up in the middle of the ring as Kutcher uses his strength advantage to overpower Kiyoko to the ground. But Kiyoko slips under the leg of Kutcher and grabs his arm twisting it into an Armbar. Kutcher is in the ropes however forcing the break. As soon as the break comes Kutcher explodes off the ropes with a Running Shoulder Tackle sending Akari sprawling across the ring. Akari bursts back up off his feet with a Running Dropkick sending Kutcher into the corner! Akari rushes in flipping up to the top of Kutcher’s shoulders and taking him down with a Hurricanr-

Gavin Kirkland: No! Kutcher caught him and slams him down hard with a thunderous Powerbomb! Kutcher to the cover!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TH-

Eve: The closest fall we have had so far in this match but Kiyoko kicks out at two!!! Kiyoko begins to get back up to his feet but Kutcher hits him with a series of clubbing blows to the back and neck sending him back to his knees. Kutcher slams Kiyoko’s head into the turnbuckle and then chops him down to the mat. Kutcher runs Kiyoko’s head into the turnbuckle again before lighting him up with a series of chops. Hard whip across the ring before Kutcher charges in with a high speed Stinger Splash crushing his own partner like a pancake! Kutcher really dominating out here as he rushes across the ring and hits a Senton into the cover!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TH-

Deadprez: But Akari Kiyoko kicks out! Kutcher yanks Akari back up but Kutcher immediately jabs him hard in the gut and then elbows him hard in the nose. Akari stumbles backwards as Damien steps in to hit him from behind knocking him into the corner. Damien then whips Akari hard across the ring as Akari goes face first into the turnbuckle with intense speed before flying backwards and crashing hard down in the middle of the ring. Akari holds his face in pain as Kutcher yanks him back around and rakes him across the back repeatedly with his fingernails. The referee warns him of this but Kutcher just drives his knee down hard into the back instead. Akari pulls himself up in the corner as Damien begins throwing punches at Akari in the corner. Akari down in the corner as Kutcher whips his partner across the ring. Kutcher charges in with a Running Lariat-

Eve: But Akari rushes out of the corner and ducks down throwing Kutcher up and over him into the air with a Back Body Drop! Akari collapses to the mat from the strength needed to execute that maneuver as now both men are down! We should say all three men are down because Kazama is still down on the outside having been taken out of the match temporarily! Both men in the ring slowly getting up! And Kazama on the outside getting up too now!-

Deadprez: But a Double Superkick from Kutcher and Kiyoko nails Kazama right in the face as he pulls himself up on the apron! Kazama goes right back down! Showtime then immediately starts brawling amongst themselves! They want to win this match but they especially don’t want Matthew Kazama to win this match!

Gavin Kirkland: This is unfair to Kazama! At least in the last match he had Vincent Mondrian to help him with Showtime! But tonight he has nobody!

Eve: Akari! Damien! Akari! Damien! Akari! Damien! Akari! Akari! Akari! Akari winning the battle of strikes before laying into Damien with a slingshot clothesline! Damien goes down but Akari isn’t going for the cover just yet. Akari lifts Damien up and drops him with an Atomic Drop sending Damien to the outside of the ring right next to Kazama. Akari is clearing house here tonight! Kutcher starts to get up but Akari throws himself over the top rope with a Bodypress landing on top of Kutcher flattening him to the floor! Akari tosses Kutcher back into the ring and then goes for the cover!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TH-

Deadprez: Kickout by Damien Kutcher! Akari climbs on top of him and begins delivering a series of jabs to the face! Akari is pummeling into Damien with closed fists until Damien hits a Headbutt sending Akari off of him. Akari back up as Damien meets him but Akari whips him across the ring. Damien rebounds off into a Clothesline!!! No! Akari gets Damien into a Bearhug! But Damien is too strong and breaks free! Damien with an elbow strike to the top of the head of Akari! Damien then picks up Akari and rushes him across the ring with a Front Powerslam! Akari rolls up to his feet but a running kick to the ribs from Damien knocks him back down. Akari rolls to his hands and knees but Damien off the ropes with a Running Knee Lift right to the head! Damien to another cover!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE-

Eve: Closer but still no three count! Damien hits the mat in rage clearly getting upset that he has been unable to put his partner away! Akari rolls up to his knees but Damien with an open palm slam to the face knocking him back down! Such disrespect! Damien is brutalizing Akari here tonight and teaching him a lesson about who the dominant member of Showtime truly is! Damien going up to the top rope now! Damien is looking to finish things off! Akari slowly back to his feet!

Deadprez: Damien off the top rope with a Double Axe Handle to the head of Akari! He got all of it knocking Akari the hell out! Damien to the cover!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE-

Gavin Kirkland: No! It’s Matthew Kazama! Kazama just rushed into the ring to break up the three count! I think Kutcher might have had it there if Kazama had not interfered! Kazama grabs Kutcher and picks him up above his head before dropping him down onto his knee with a Shoulderbreaker! Kazama then runs the ropes and hits a Guillotine Leg Drop! Kazama then goes for the cover on Kiyoko to steal the win!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE-

Eve: No! He was too late as Kiyoko kicks out! Kazama decides to cover Kutcher instead! Maybe this one will work out!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE-

Deadprez: No! Kazama tried to cover both members of Showtime but neither would allow him to win the match! He is not victorious just yet! But he has a chance to change that! Kazama grabs Kiyoko who looks to be worse for wear than Kutcher and runs him into the corner! Kiyoko is thrown shoulder first into the corner! Kazama then grabs Kutcher and runs him into the opposite corner! Kazama then grabs Kiyoko and drags him back to the middle of the ring dropping him with a Piledriver right on his neck! But Kazama is not done just yet-

Eve: Kazama with another Piledriver on Kiyoko! Kazama then goes up to the top rope! He’s looking to put this man away here and now! Kazama leaps!!!-

Deadprez: THE LAST KAZAMA!!! THE SHOOTING STAR PRESS CONNECTS! IT HAS NEVER BEEN MORE OVER!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEE!!!

Gavin Kirkland: DING! DING! DING!

Eve: No! Damien Kutcher got up and prevented Matthew Kazama from winning the match! Kutcher twists Kazama around and applies The Divine Submission on him! Kutcher is going to force Kazama to tap out here and make his way to the Chamber! But wait Akari Kiyoko is somehow getting back up his feet!

Deadprez: No! Kiyoko stumbles back down unable to get back up! Kiyoko looks on as he sees The Divine Submission applied and knows he has to break it up! But he lacks the strength to do so!

Eve: Kiyoko desperately crawls across the ring trying to get there! He pulls at the boot of Damien Kutcher but can’t drag him out of the hold!!

Deadprez: Wait! Kazama is fading! He raises up his arm! He’s going to tap out!

Gavin Kirkland: HE SLAMS HIS HAND DOWN!! KAZAMA TAPS OUT!!!-

Eve: No! Akari Kiyoko rolled in the way and grabbed the hand of Matthew Kazama! Kiyoko prevents the tapping and Kazama is screaming in pain begging Kiyoko to let him tap! But he won’t allow it! Damien Kutcher just realized what is happening and released the hold! Kutcher stomps on Kiyoko he is pissed off as he knows he had the match won but Kiyoko stopped it from happening! Kutcher pulls Kiyoko up in the corner and begins laying into him with thunderous chops to the chest!!!

Deadprez: Kutcher shoves Kiyoko backwards across the ring! Kiyoko runs back in with a Dropkick! But Kutcher moves out of the way! Kiyoko backs up as Kutcher nails him hard in the chest with a Big Boot! Kutcher off the ropes and comes down across the chest of Kiyoko with a Running Splash! No cover as Kutcher grabs the leg of Kiyoko and begins to twist him around into a Figure 4 Leglock! No! Kazama runs in and hits Kutcher with a Spear tearing him in half! Kutcher holds his midsection in pain as Kazama runs in and begins hitting him with hard shots to the gut knocking him backwards. Kutcher falls to the mat as Kazama comes off the middle ropes with a Diving Knee Drop! Kazama to the cover!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEE!!!

Eve: No! Kiyoko rushes in and breaks it up! This match might just continue forever as every time there is a cover someone breaks it up! All three men roll up to their feet and begin trading shots!!!-

Deadprez: Akari Kiyoko gets thrown up into the air by Damien Kutcher who catches him on his back slamming him down hard with a Samoan Drop! Matthew Kazama then runs in and begins pummeling Kutcher into the corner! But Kutcher battling back out and hits him with a Big Boot! Kutcher then goes for the cover on Kiyoko!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEE!!!

Gavin Kirkland: But Kiyoko kicks out! Damien Kutcher then grabs Matthew Kazama and twists him around into The Divine Submission! This could be it!!-

Eve: But Kazama grabs Kutcher and pulls him into a Small Package yet again! Another attempt at the steal this time much later on in the match! Kazama might have it here!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEE!!!

Deadprez: But Kutcher kicks out! I thought he had him there!!!

Eve: Kutcher back up as he meets Kazama in the middle of the ring and they are throwing hands fiercely! Kutcher goes for the Divine Elbow on Kazama dizzying him backwards into the corner! Kutcher rushes Kazama in the corner but he gets the knee up! Kutcher falls backwards across the ring as Kazama leaps up to the middle ropes grabbing Kutcher!!! TORNADO DDT!!! KAZAMA PLANTS KUTCHER DOWN HARD ON THE MAT!!!

Deadprez: Kazama picks up Kutcher and pulls him into the Silver Diamond DDT!!! But he can’t get him up! Kutcher is sandbagging! Kutcher pulls Kazama down to the mat and they both collapse onto the floor. All three men are down here and the referee might have to declare this one a time limit draw as nobody seems capable of winning!

Gavin Kirkland: No Dead we have all the time in the world! This is Showdown!

Eve: Wait it looks like Kutcher and Kazama are stirring! They are slowly getting back up! Both men stagger around backwards in the ring-

Deadprez: SILVER DIAMOND!!!

Eve: Kazama got all of that Cyclone DDT! He’s got this! Kazama is going to win it all! He falls into the cover!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEE!!!

Referee: …

Referee: …!

Referee: …-

Deadprez: No! Akari Kiyoko just broke it up! Matthew Kazama definitely had the match won there but Kiyoko managed to summon strength from who the fuck knows where to ruin it all for him! This crowd is electric they don’t care who wins this match they are impressed by all three contenders!

Gavin Kirkland: But not all three can go to the Chamber! There must be only one!!!

Eve: Matthew Kazama gets back up and he is attacking Kiyoko with right hands!-

Deadprez: But Kiyoko falls backwards after getting in an Uppercut of his own! Kiyoko off the ropes as Kazama grabs him for the Cyclone DDT!!!-

Eve: CLAYMORE KICK!!! PEACH DREAM CONNECTS! NO FOREARM!

Deadprez: Possibly out of instinct Kiyoko connected with the Claymore Kick!! But Kazama hit him with a forearm at the same time! Both men collapse in the ring having connected with deadly strikes!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Wait look! Akari just collapsed on top of Damien Kutcher! The cover!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Referee: THRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Referee: …

Referee: . . .

Referee: . . .!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gina Romano: Here is your winner… AKARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRI KIYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

(chAngE – miwa hits as the crowd erupts into cheers. Akari Kiyoko has his arm raised by the referee but he doesn’t even seem to have registered he has won the match.)

Eve: I don’t even know if Akari knows he has won the match! He got lucky there falling on top of his own partner! Akari pins Damien and will be going on to the Extreme Elimination Chamber!

Deadprez: You can call it luck or you can call it skill but sometimes a little luck is exactly what you need to win a hellacious match like that!

Gavin Kirkland: The disappointment is setting in for the other two in this match as they slowly come to and realize they will not be competing in the Extreme Elimination Chamber match this year.

Eve: It’s gotta be rough but congratulations to Akari Kiyoko! The heart of Showdown!!! <3 <3 <3

Gavin Kirkland: I don’t even know why you would want to be in the Extreme Elimination Chamber match to begin with. I think these two just dodged a career ending bullet myself!

(Akari Kiyoko slowly comes too as he realizes he won the match and begins to celebrate. His opponents get back up as well as they shake hands in the ring with both members of Showtime also hugging it out despite Damien’s disappointment.)

(The camera cuts to a commercial featuring the Caucasian members of the EAW roster kissing their dogs with full tongue.)

(The camera shot has cut from the ringside area to the backstage area where Kyra Phillips is standing in front of a blue Showdown banner with subtle cheers going on in the background. She has a microphone in her hand and a smile on her face as she begins to speak.)

Kyra Phillips: What a match! That was certainly a great way to kick off Showdown with that Last Chance Triple Threat Match between Akari Kiyoko, Matthew Kazama, and Damien Kutcher all for the sake of entering the prestigious Extreme Elimination Chamber Match at Road to Redemption.

Kyra Phillips: Before we discuss Road to Redemption, I’d be remiss if I didn’t speak about last week’s The Last Stand event. It was a miraculous event that only the Elitists of the Blue Brand of Showdown can provide. 

Kyra Phillips: When we talk about The Last Stand, we have to talk about the match that makes The Last Stand so popular and that is the Temple of Trials match. 

(The camera shot cuts to a montage of different still shots of the Temple of Trials match last week.)

Kyra Phillips: Last week, eight competitors went to war inside the Temple of Trials with each team having one purpose. For Team Showdown, it was to eliminate Silas World once and for all. For Silas World, it was to shift the power of Showdown back into Silas World’s favor.

Kyra Phillips: These eight really beat the holy hell out of each other. At the end of the match, it came down to former British Invasion teammates Daryl Kinkade and Pandora Paisley. The match could have gone either way, but what shocked everybody in the arena and everybody watching at home is when a mystery person snuck into the temple and revealed themself to be Halsey Neel, who has been out of action with an injury.

Kyra Phillips: Then when things were looking to go in Daryl’s favor, Halsey did the unthinkable and struck Daryl Kinkade before Halsey and Pandora took Daryl out. That led to Pandora being able to leave the temple and win the match for Silas World.

(The camera shot cuts back to present time with Kyra Phillips still in front of the Showdown banner.)

Kyra Phillips: Earlier tonight, we heard our General Manager, Kennedy Street’s, thoughts about what happened at The Last Stand. But right now, my guest at this time was also part of the Temple of Trials match last week. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my guest, AUBURN WARE!

(Seconds later, Auburn Ware comes into the camera view and stands next to Kyra Phillips. We hear even more cheers from the crowd in the background as we see a small smile on her face as she nods to Kyra and Kyra begins to speak.)

Kyra Phillips: Auburn, thank you so much for giving us a moment of your time.

Auburn Ware: The pleasure is all mine. I am glad to be here.

Kyra Phillips: It’s greatly appreciated. I am going to go ahead and just cut right to the chase with my first question. How are you feeling after the Temple of Trials match last week?

(The smile on Auburn’s face does fade a little when she thinks about The Temple of Trials match and everything that went down.)

Auburn Ware: For this being my main event match in a big time event, I am on top of the world that I finally got an opportunity to show the world what exactly I can do when the Main Event Spotlight is on me.

Kyra Phillips: But?

Auburn Ware: But saying that I am extremely disappointed with the end result of the match would be a complete understatement. It sucked seeing Silas World and their smug faces soaking in their “victory”. It makes me sick.

Kyra Phillips: I can understand that. Believe me when I say that plenty of us weren’t happy with how the match ended. It was a heartbreaker. This might be a weird question considering the circumstances, but in your opinion, do you think there was any type of silver lining moment from that match for you personally?

(Auburn looks at Kyra for a moment as she thinks about how to answer the question before she does.)

Auburn Ware: No. I get what you mean and it’s not a weird question at all. And yes. For me, even though it ended in defeat, there was a silver lining moment at The Last Stand. 

Kyra Phillips: What would that be?

Auburn Ware: It kind of goes back to what I said earlier about being in a Main Event match like the Temple of Trials. I showed the world what I can do with a big time spotlight shining on me. 

Auburn Ware: Not only that, I proved a lot of people wrong by being able to hang with and fight against some of the best competitors Showdown and EAW has to offer. The Last Stand might have been my first main event match of this caliber but I showed it most definitely won’t be my last. 

Kyra Phillips: Now I can see that you have a bruise on your temple as it is one of the battle scars from the Temple of Trials. I was wondering how you are feeling physically?

Auburn Ware: After having that cage door swung into the head, it certainly rattled my head a little bit. I am doing alright, but with the force that I was hit with the cage door, I am unfortunately not medically cleared to compete this week. 

(We can hear the crowd booing in the background as Auburn nods in agreement.)

Auburn Ware: Believe me, I know. It sucks and I would love to be in the ring competing, but I have to follow the doctor’s orders. 

Kyra Phillips: It’s best to safely recover and I for one can’t wait until we see you in the ring again.

Auburn Ware: I hope it’s very soon, but I will most definitely be ready for Road to Redemption because I have something in mind.

Kyra Phillips: What do you have in mind for Road to Redemption?

Auburn Ware: Kyra, it’s pretty obvious. It has been something that I have been wanting ever since arriving to EAW, it’s championship gold! 

Kyra Phillips: Is there any particular title that you are looking towards?

Auburn Ware: Actually, yes. There is a title that I do have my eyes on.

(Auburn has a smile on her face as she looks right at the camera.)

Auburn Ware: Kennedy Street. I know you have a lot on your mind right now and I hate to bother you, but I hope you are listening to me right now. Kennedy, I want you to work your magic to give me Mia Santoro!!

(The crowd cheers because after hearing Mia’s name, they know exactly what title Auburn wants to challenge for.)

Kyra Phillips: You want a match with the Specialists Champion?

Auburn Ware: You bet I do. I would love another crack at the Specialists Championship considering I haven’t had a match for that title since back at Pain for Pride. Especially after gaining months more of experience, I feel even more confident that I would be able to win the Specialists Championship.

Kyra Phillips: You certainly have what it takes to become Champion and I hope that Kennedy acknowledges your request and gets you a match for the Specialists Championship.

Auburn Ware: I hope so too, but while I see how that goes, I do have some other things I need to take care of. 

Kyra Phillips: What exactly would that be?

(Auburn looks at Kyra and gets a more intense look on her face before she answers the question.)

Auburn Ware: I still have some unfinished business regarding my fight against those pains of Silas World. Especially with that bitch Pandora Paisley. If she thinks she is going to get away with what she did and the stunts she has pulled, she has another thing coming.

(The look of intensity fades away and the smile returns as Kyra nods her head.)

Kyra Phillips: I wish you the best of luck in your business. Again, Auburn, thank you for your time and I also wish you the best in your recovery.

(Auburn nods her head in return.)

Auburn Ware: Thank you. It was a pleasure.

(Auburn still has the smile on her face, but the intensity is back as she turns and walks away and off frame as Kyra looks back at the camera.)

Kyra Phillips: You heard it here. Not only does Auburn still have some business she wants to take care of with Silas World, but she is also on the hunt for her first taste of Championship gold by issuing a challenge for Specialists Championship. I guess Mia Santoro should definitely consider herself on notice with a Challenger on Showdown.

(The final shot shows Kyra looking at the camera and smiling before cutting away to a commercial break.)

(Commercial Break plays advertising the Road to Redemption event.)

(We return from commercial break and we see Gina Romano in the ring with a competitor already in the ring as she is ready to begin the introductions for the next match.)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! This contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Gina Romano: Introducing first and already in the ring! From Memphis, Tennessee!! Weighing 130 pounds! Here is CARRIE COLLINS!!

(The camera now focuses on the entrance ramp as “10’s” by Pantera starts to play. Seconds later, the powerful figure known only as BOA enters the arena and teh 

Gina Romano: Introducing her opponent! Making their EAW DEBUT! From Odesa, Ukraine! Weighing 177 pounds! Here is “THE CONSTRICTOR” BOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAA! 

Eve: Here is the debut that has been talked about. BOA is here and is ready for their debut match in EAW. BOA’s main objective is a simple one: cause pure and unadulterated pain. 

Gavin Kirkland: This BOA kind of scares me. I heard BOA made history by playing on the Notre Dame football team. BOA certainly knows how to give and take hits. 

Deadprez: BOA has a very intimidating presence. If I was poor Carrie, I would just forfeit. She’s got guts for trying, but BOA looks ready. 

(BOA enters the ring and takes a neutral corner as they glare at their poor unfortunate opponent as their entrance music fades off. The referee looks at both competitors and calls for the bell.)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Eve: The bell has rung and this debut match is underway AND BOA COMES OUT OF THE CORNER AND JUST CLOBBERS CARRIE WITH A CLOTHESLINE RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE!

Deadprez: Carrie didn’t know what hit her, dawg, and that might be the story of this match because BOA looks so angry at her opponent right now and this isn’t going to be good.

Gavin Kirkland: BOA brings her back to her feet and STARTS DELIVERING FOREARMS RIGHT INTO HER FACE!! GOOD GRIEF! I WOULDN’T BE SURPRISED IF A TOOTH OR TWO GET KNOCKED OUT BEFORE THIS MATCH IS OVER!

Deadprez: BOA has Carrie on the ropes before whipping her to the ropes on the other side. Carrie comes back off the ropes AND BOA TAKES HER UP AND OVER WITH A SPINE TINGLING BACK BODY DROP!

Eve: Carrie is getting rocked and BOA is just not letting the poor girl breathe! Carrie is trying to get back to her feet AND BOA COMES RUNNING IN AND DRIVES HER FACE FIRST WITH A TWO HANDED BULLDOG!

Gavin Kirkland: Her opponent kisses the mat and BOA is not letting up on her attack. BOA brings up Carrie onto her shoulders. What is BOA going to do? Not that it matters.

Eve: CARRIE SLIDES OFF OF BOA’S SHOULDERS AND IS TRYING TO TAKE BOA DOWN WITH A SUNSET FLIP–

Deadprez: BOA KEEPS THEIR BALANCE! Carrie is in a huge mess of trouble AS BOA GRABS CARRIE AROUND THE NECK AND PULLS HER BACK TO HER FEET–

Gavin Kirkland: BOA IS LIFTING CARRIE IN THE AIR WHILE IN A CHOKEHOLD!! BOA IS CHOKING CARRIE AND THE REFEREE IS TELLING BOA TO LET GO–

Eve: The referee started a count and reached four BEFORE BOA JUST TOSSES CARRIE DOWN LIKE NO OTHER AND THE BACK OF HER HEAD JUST CRACKS THE MAT HARD!!

Deadprez: Look at the fire in BOA’s eyes. BOA is a very intimidating individual from what we can already see as they bring Carrie back to her feet and whips her to the corner.

Gavin Kirkland: Carrie hits the turnbuckle hard AND HERE COMES BOA WITH THE EUROPEAN UPPERCUT CATCHING CARRIE RIGHT IN THE FACE!

Deadprez: This girl could have a broken jaw right now as Carrie comes stumbling out of the corner as BOA once again gets Carrie on the shoulders–

Eve: AND BOA JUST DROPS HER FACE FIRST ON THE MAT WITH A TKO!! GOOD GRIEF!!

Gavin Kirkland: These high impact moves are something that we need to watch out for, BUT BOA STILL HAS HOLD OF HER OPPONENT!!

Eve: BOA pulls her opponent in AND TAKES HER UP AND OVER WITH A HALF AND HALF SUPLEX!! CARRIE MIGHT HAVE JUST LANDED ON HER HEAD!

Deadprez: This BOA is not playing around as Carrie is once again pulled to her feet and kicked in the gut to be doubled over. Carrie is in the gutwrench position BEFORE LIFTING CARRIE UP IN THE AIR–

Eve: AND DRIVES HER INTO THE MAT WITH A SPINE SHATTERING POWERBOMB!! POOR CARRIE ISN’T EVEN MOVING AT THE MOMENT!!

Deadprez: This BOA is just dismantling their opponent here in their EAW debut. BOA has something in mind as they drag Carrie over to the corner before BOA begins their climb up to the top rope.

Gavin Kirkland: BOA has found their way on the top rope and doesn’t waste a second AS THEY FLY OFF THE TOP ROPE AND HITTING THE DIVING HEADBUTT!!

Deadprez: “URSUS SHOCK” BY BOA AND THAT WAS A DIRECT HIT!! THEIR OPPONENT IS BARELY MOVING RIGHT NOW!!

Eve: BOA could have gone for the cover right there and end it, but they didn’t. They go right back to the corner AND CLIMB UP TO THE SECOND ROPE!! 

Gavin Kirkland: BOA IS LASER FOCUSED ON CARRIE AND CARRIE IS BARELY MOVING AND TRYING TO GET BACK TO THEIR FEET!

Eve: If Carrie is smart, she should just stay down. This isn’t worth it!

Deadprez: Carrie is somehow able to get back to her feet, but she has no idea what is waiting for her as she turns around. Carrie turns to the corner– 

Gavin Kirkland: BOA JUST LAUNCHES THEMSELF OFF THE SECOND ROPE AND SHE BLASTS CARRIE WITH THE “BOARR”! HOLY CRAP! WHAT A DIVING SPEAR FROM THE SECOND ROPE!

Deadprez: GOOD GAWD!! POOR CARRIE HAS JUST BEEN TURNED INSIDE OUT WITH THAT SPEAR!! BOA GRABS CARRIE BY THE ARM AND THE HAIR BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER! COUNT TO 100 FOR ALL YOU WANT, DAWG!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!

THHHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(“10’s” starts playing again as BOA stands up after a dominating victory as Gina announces the final decision of the match.)

Gina Romano: Here is your winner… BOA!!

Eve: I said earlier that BOA is here! Now I would like to say that BOA has arrived. What a statement they just made tonight. 

Gavin Kirkland: That is putting it mildly, Eve. BOA ran through this poor Carrie and didn’t even break a sweat. 

(The referee raises BOA’s arm in victory before snatching it away and glaring at the referee and leaving the ring.)

Gavin Kirkland: If BOA was able to accomplish that in the ring against someone not very experienced in EAW, can you imagine the chaos BOA could cause against some of the veterans on Showdown. 

Deadprez: Dawg, the only advice I have for the locker room is be careful with BOA or The Constrictor will send you into intensive care. What a find by Kennedy Street and congratulations once again to BOA on the victory and for a successful EAW Debut. 

(The final shot shows BOA standing at the top of the entrance ramp as they look back down at the ring, watching the referee checking on her fallen victim as the camera shot fades elsewhere….)

(Commercial for Voltage’s F*ck Your Thanksgiving)

(We have returned from commercial break and the arena has cleared away the action of the previous match. Seconds later, ‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics starts to play as Harper Lee enters the arena being accompanied by Silas Mason. Harper adjusts the National Elite Championship on her shoulder as she and Silas head to the ring.)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen at this time, please welcome to the ring… SILAS MASON AND THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION HARPER LEE!!

Eve: Oh great! Here they are. The National Elite Champion Harper Lee and the epitome of evil Silas Mason coming to the ring to no doubt brag about Silas World’s victory at The Last Stand.

Gavin Kirkland: What are you talking about? They said they were going to win and shift the power back to Silas World. That’s exactly what they did.

Deadprez: Sing their praises all you want, but we all know exactly how things went down last week and I don’t appreciate how they did it. Anyway, let’s hear what they have to say.

(Harper walks up the entrance steps as Silas grabs a microphone from Gina Romano. Silas makes his way up the steps to open the ropes for Harper. Silas and Harper stand front and center in the ring as her music fades off. The crowd is still booing as Harper begins to speak.) 

Harper Lee: That’s right, people! Drink it in! 

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Harper Lee: Oh go ahead and keep booing. You people in the arena are just like everybody else right now. For some reason, everyone is completely irate that Silas World won at The Last Stand. Blah blah blah.

Harper Lee: And because Silas World won, like we said we were going to in the first place, cancel culture is all out and about in drones because none of you can handle what happened. Are you guys mad?

Crowd: YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

Harper Lee: WELL THAT’S JUST TOO DARN BAD!! You all will just have to accept that Silas World has the power now and Silas World is going to be at the top for a very VERY long time. 

(Harper smirks and listens to the crowd continue to boo before she continues.)

Harper Lee: Well now that Silas World has proved their point and has reclaimed the top spot again, let’s get on with some other business. More specifically, the National Elite Championship.

(Harper holds the title in the air for the arena to see and they are still booing her.)

Harper Lee: Now, Kennedy. Kennedy Street, I hope you are listening right now because I know you are trying to plot something to stack the deck against Silas World like you always do. But you need to hear this.

Harper Lee: With Road to Redemption coming up, I know that I am going to have to defend my beautiful National Elite Championship. So I will tell you this now. I am more than ready to defend my National Elite Championship against WHOEVER wants to step up and face the Champ. Come on!! All you have to do is beat me! Who wants to come on down and challenge the Champ?

(There is a brief moment of silence after Harper finishes, but the silence quickly breaks as “New Devil” by Asking Alexandria starts playing. Seconds later, Daryl Kinkade enters the arena and doesn’t waste a second heading to the ring.) 

Deadprez: Well, Harper, you asked and you shall receive because you were ready for whoever wanted to challenge you for the title and there he is. Daryl Kinkade is heading to the ring and he has been trying to become National Elite Champion for a while now.

Eve: He has been hungry for gold for a long time and could this be the moment where Daryl wins his next championship title and after everything that has gone down, he would have no issue tearing Harper apart.

Gavin Kirkland:  Are you sure that Daryl isn’t just a glutton for punishment. Poor guy still looks shellshocked after what happened to him at The Last Stand. I don’t know but we are about to hear what Daryl has to say.

(Daryl grabs a microphone from Gina and slides right into the ring to get face to face with Harper. Silas tells Daryl to back up and back off as Daryl’s music fades off.)

Harper Lee: Are you serious? You? AGAIN?

Daryl Kinkade: Oh I am absolutely serious.

(Harper looks at Daryl for a moment before she starts laughing to the point of hysterics and Daryl doesn’t think that is very funny.)

Daryl Kinkade: What the hell is so funny, bitch?

(Harper is able to control herself and calm down before she looks at Daryl and shakes her head before she responds.)

Harper Lee: What’s so funny? What’s funny is the fact that you really wanna go through this again with us. Donovan has already beat the crap out of you multiple times you would think you would learn when to give it up.

Harper Lee: Look. The British Invasion is no more and you are all alone. Seems fitting. But what you really need to do is just go away. Then you need to sit down and take a little time for a little bit of self-reflection because we all know you need it. 

Daryl Kinkade: No.

Harper Lee: No?

Daryl Kinkade: NO! Now this is what really needs to be done. What needs to be done is that somebody needs to take that title away from you as you have been holding it hostage for too damn long.

Daryl Kinkade: I want a title belt and I am coming after yours. You are going to face me for the National Elite Championship.

(“Just Stop” by Disturbed now starts to play as Pandora Paisley now enters the arena alone. She is looking right at Daryl in the ring as she makes her way down to join them.)

Gavin Kirkland: WOOOOOOOOO! PANDORA PAISLEY IS HERE! I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!

Eve: Well this young lady has some explaining to do after what she did at The Last Stand with Halsey Neel. Speaking of Halsey, I was just informed that Halsey Neel isn’t here tonight because she is still not medically cleared so Pandora is flying solo right now.

Deadprez: Eventually, Halsey and Pandora will have to answer for what they did to Daryl inside the Temple of Trials, but right now, let’s hear what “The Hellcat” has to say.

(Now Pandora grabs a microphone from Gina before she enters the ring. Pandora stands by the ropes between Harper and Daryl. She looks at them both as her entrance music fades off.)

Pandora Paisley: Daryl. I am not going to sugarcoat anything with you so I am going to tell you the truth.

Pandora Paisley: The truth is that you don’t deserve a title shot… of ANY kind.

(The crowd starts booing the disrespect being shown by Pandora to Daryl.)

Daryl Kinkade: Is that what you really think?

Pandora Paisley: That’s exactly what I think and as far as I am concerned, you will NOT be getting ANY title shot until you are able to get past ME!!

Daryl Kinkade: Get past you?

Pandora Paisley: That’s right. With your run of luck lately, I don’t think you can.

(Daryl and Pandora toss down their microphones and have a staredown in the center of the ring with Harper and Silas watching on.)

Eve: Ohhhh things are heating up in the ring right now. Are we about to see what we should have seen at The Last Stand… and look at Harper just enjoying every second of it.

Deadprez: You have to believe that there is part of Daryl that really wants to knock Pandora’s teeth out after she and Halsey turned their back on The British Invasion for good. 

(Harper then comes up with a smile on her face as she, Silas, and Pandora leave the ring as Daryl has a look of confusion on his face.)

Gavin Kirkland: Well things just got interesting with what just went down in the ring right there. Silas World is leaving the ring. No contact made with Daryl Kinkade.

Eve: I don’t think Daryl believes or understands what the hell just went down right there. The question is what will Kennedy Street have to say about what just happened in the ring.

Deadprez: Harper was ready to defend the National Elite Championship against anybody who stepped up. Daryl stepped up to the challenge while Pandora told Daryl that until he can beat her, Daryl is not going to be getting any sort of title shot. To say the very least, I think things are just starting to heat back up once again regarding Daryl Kinkade and Silas World.

(The final shot shows Harper, Pandora, and Silas walking up the entrance ramp before cutting to Daryl, who is still in the ring wondering what the hell just happened as the camera shot fades elsewhere.)

(The scene opens with Gina Romano to announce the next match.)

 

Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS AN ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP EXTREME CHAMBER QUALIFIER SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL…

( “Betty (Get Money)” by Yung Gravy starts up! Clayton Golde steps out of the curtains, wearing shades and a designer hoodie, pointing to the hard cam. He takes a moment to take in all the booes before strutting down the ramp with the biggest smile on his face. In his hand, his phone is live-streaming from Tik Tok as he shows off his POV.)

Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST! FROM ROMANIA WEIGHTING IN AT 210 POUNDS…CLAYTON GOLDE!

( The arena dims as the piano of Ray Mak’s “Still D.R.E.” echoes across the venue, the crowd buzzing in anticipation. A single spotlight hits the stage, revealing Impact standing still in tailored black and gold, head down, arms out. After a full minute, the classic beat of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg drop “Still D.R.E.” kicks in and Impact slowly lifts his head with a smirk, walking to the ring. )

Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT…FROM SEATTLR, WASHINGTON…WEIGHTING IN AT 228 POUNDS…EAW HALL OF FAMER…IMPACT!

( DING! DING! DING! )

Gavin Kirkland: Here we go! One-on-one action with a HUGE opportunity on the line! Clayton Golde versus Impact, the winner moves on to the Extreme Elimination Chamber to compete in the Answers World Championship!

Eve: This ain’t just another match, this is career leverage. Impact’s done this dance before Clayton? He’s trying to start the party.

Deadprez: You can already see the difference in their body language. Impact calm, collected. Golde is buzzing. He wants eyes on him. Clayton Golde rolls his shoulders as he circles the ring, eyes scanning the crowd as if reminding everyone who the real star is. Impact on the other side simply stretches his neck, bouncing lightly on the balls of his feet. They step forward! Lock-up!

Gavin Kirkland: Impact immediately muscles Golde into the corner! Clean break at first, hands up but Clayton can’t help himself, shoving Impact’s chest at the last second.  Already trying to get under the skin of the veteran.

Eve: That’s the game plan. You don’t outwrestle Impact. You out-annoy him. Impact lips pressed thin, and stepped in again. Another tie-up, this time Golde slips behind, quick standing switch into a side headlock! He wrenches it in tight but Impact plants his feet and shoves him off into the ropes! Clayton rebounds LEAPFROG— Impact ducks low, Clayton spins around— DROPKICK! Catches Impact right on the jaw!

Deadprez: Beautiful timing from Golde! He knew exactly where Impact would be! Impact stumbles back, but doesn’t fall. He shakes it off, stepping forward again, and Clayton responds with a quick jab combination, snapping Impact’s head back—

SMACK!

Gavin Kirkland: A brutal knife-edged chop from Impact! You could hear that all the way in the parking lot! Clayton stumbles, clutching his chest! Impact grabs his wrist, pulls him in— ANOTHER chop! He waited for his opening and then he made you pay for it. Clayton tries to retreat, but Impact drives him back with a snapping headbutt, rocking him, then whips him hard into the opposite corner! Impact charges in— RUNNING BULLDOG! He spikes Golde right into the mat and floats over for the first cover!

ONE!

TWO!!

Eve: Clayton kicks out fast, shoving Impact away and rolling to the ropes, eyebrows furrowed now, that smirk fading just a bit! You can see it. The moment Impact starts dictating, Clayton doesn’t like it one bit. Impact doesn’t rush him. Clayton pulls himself up using the ropes, Impact steps through SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK! He launches off the second rope and crushes Golde right in the chest, sending him down to the mat!

Deadprez: Impact with flawless execution! This man’s been doing this longer than Clayton’s been talking. Impact pulls Clayton up by the wrist, spins him— TILT-A-WHIRL BACKBREAKER! Golde folds over Impact’s knee, guttural shouts escaping him as he rolls away clutching his spine.Impact stays on him, grabbing Clayton by the head and pulling him up. DOUBLE UNDERHOOK BACKBREAKER! He snaps Golde across his knee AGAIN, even nastier this time, and Clayton is left writhing on the mat!

Gavin Kirkland: Impact is systematically breaking him down! Impact hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!!

Eve: Golde jerks the shoulder up! Impact rises again and he drags Golde to his feet— Clayton suddenly surges with desperation! Firing off quick jabs again, backing Impact up a few steps knee lift to the gut! But Impact just absorbs it! SPINNING WHEEL KICK! It cracks across Clayton’s jaw like a gunshot and drops him flat!

Deadprez: Good god, he nearly took his head off! That’s the instinct we are used to. Every time Clayton presses, Impact’s got an answer! Impact doesn’t pin yet. Instead, he looks down at Golde then heads for the corner! He climbs, balances— MOONSAULT! He crashes directly onto Clayton’s torso and hooks both legs!

ONE!

TWO!!

THREEEE—

Gavin Kirkland: Clayton kicks out again! This time rolling to his side, gasping for breath. Clayton Golde refuses to die here, but every second he’s in there, Impact is dragging him deeper! Impact stands back up, rolling his shoulders now. He reaches down for Clayton again— BUT GOLDE SNAP ROLLS HIM! Schoolboy pin!

ONE!

TWO!!

Eve: Impact kicks out with authority, immediately getting to a knee! Clayton rolling up, going for a SUPERKICK— NO! Impact blocks the superkick at the last second, shoving Clayton’s leg aside, and catching him by the throat WITH A MASSIVE LARIAT!  Impact drives Clayton into the mat, folding him in half and sending him tumbling back toward the corner. Impact is in complete control right now!

Deadprez: And Clayton’s running out of room to be cute. Impact follows him into the corner, gripping him by the chin, lifting his face. A knife-edge chop! Another! Clayton’s chest turning red! Impact backs up slowly measuring him! He charges in—

Gavin Kirkland: BUT GOLDE EXPLODES OUT WITH A BIG BOOT! Impact staggers back! Clayton doesn’t waste it, he lunges— SPRINGBOARD CLOTHESLINE! He launches off the ropes and nearly turns Impact inside out!

Eve: There it is! That spark from Clayton Golde! Clayton springs to his feet, fire in his eyes now! He grabs Impact— SNAP SUPLEX! He floats over, staying attached! FISHERMAN SUPLEX! He bridges!

ONE!

TWO!!

Deadprez: Impact powers out! Golde finally shifting the momentum! Clayton slaps the mat in frustration and drags Impact up, hooking him BACKSTABBER! He drives his knees right into Impact’s spine and rolls him over, hooking the leg!

ONE!

TWO!!

Gavin Kirkland: Impact kicks again, he is still alive! Now you see Clayton get focused. That flashy stuff? He’s putting it away. He wants this. Clayton stands over Impact now, staring down at him, daring him to get up! Impact slowly, pushes himself to his knees! Clayton takes a step back, his eyes stay glued on Impact! Clayton bursts forward SUPERK—!

Eve: Impact slips his head to the side at the very last second! Before Clayton can even recover his footing, Impact surges forward— RUNNING KNEE STRIKE! Knees drives straight into Golde’s chest and sends him crashing to the canvas!  Impact doesn’t go for the cover! He sits up instead! He reaches down and yanks Clayton up by the wrist— CLAYTON FIRES OFF JABS!

Deadprez: Clayton trying to create space with those hands! Impact absorbs them and fires back with a brutal HEADBUTT! Right on the bridge of the nose! Clayton stumbles backward. Impact follows with a thunderous knife-edged chop! You could hear that in the upper deck! Clayton clutches his chest! Then answers back with one of his OWN!

Gavin Kirkland: Golde firing back! Impact responds with another! Now it’s just pride on display! They stand face-to-face, chopping each other, neither willing to give ground! Clayton shifts— KNEE LIFT! Impact doubles over! Clayton hooks the head for a DDT! He drives Impact into the mat and immediately sprawls over him!

ONE!

TWO!!

Eve: Impact kicks out! Clayton rolls to a knee, he reaches for Impact. But Impact twists suddenly— ARM DRAG! Clayton is flung across the ring! Perfect counter! Clayton scrambles up! Impact hits the ropes— DROPKICK! He drills Clayton right in the chest, sending him into the corner!

Deadprez: Clayton stumbles out of the corner! He throws his boot up— BIG BOOT! Impact staggers back! Clayton finally creates separation! Clayton grabs him around the head! FISHERMAN NECKBREAKER! He snaps him down and rolls into a cover!

ONE!

TWO!!

Gavin Kirkland: Impact kicks out again! Every time Clayton thinks he has it, Impact just keeps escaping! Clayton drags him toward the ropes now!  He drapes Impact across the middle rope— DRAPED DDT! Impact bounces hard off the canvas! That one could end it! Clayton hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!!

THREEE—

Eve: NO! Impact kicks out again! Incredible resilience from Impact! Clayton steps away now, hands on hips, frustration on his face. Impact starts stirring! Clayton yanks him to his feet and whips him into the ropes! Impact rebounds SPINNING WHEEL KICK— 

Deadprez: Clayton ducks under it! He scoops him up— POWERBOMB! He drops him straight down! He planted him!

ONE!

TWO!!

THREEEEE—

Gavin Kirkland: Impact kicks out at the last second! That was dangerously close! Clayton doesn’t pause. He rolls him onto his side— SLEEPER HOLD! He locks it in tight, body scissored around Impact’s waist!

Eve: Now Clayton is going for the slow drain! Impact’s face tightens as he fights for space! He drags them both inch by inch toward the ropes! Look at the effort! Every movement hurts him! Clayton squeezes harder!

Deadprez: Blood is rushing out his head! But Impact plants a foot! Then another! He powers up— BACK BODY DROP! Clayton flies off his shoulders and hits hard!

Gavin Kirkland:  Impact isn’t done! He steps into a quick SPINNING BACK KICK TO THE GUT! Clayton folds over! Impact grabs him— DOUBLE UNDERHOOK BACKBREAKER! He snaps him across his knee AGAIN! That back is taking a serious beating! Impact hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!!

… 

THREEE— !!!

Eve: Clayton kicks out! Clayton Golde just refuses to stay down! Now both men are down! This is where the real test starts. Who wants that Chamber spot more? Impact slowly pushes to his knees. Clayton rolls onto his side  then grips the ropes, pulling himself up!  They face each other again! Everything on the line and neither one giving an inch.

Deadprez: Impact takes a step forward! Clayton does the same! You can feel this building! This place is ready to explode! One mistake! Just ONE and it’s over! Clayton fires first a stiff jab! Impact answers with a chop! Clayton with a knee lift! They’re trading,instinct keeping them upright! Impact swings for a lariat— Clayton ducks! He rebounds off the ropes! “DEMONETIZED” DUCUS ELBOW! Impact crashes to the mat!

ONE!

TWO!!

THREEEE— !!!

Deadprez: Impact kicks out! Even after all that, he’s still kicking! Impact is not going quietly! Clayton pushes himself up, pacing now!  He wipes sweat out of his eyes then looks back at Impact.

Gavin Kirkland: What is Golde thinking about now? Clayton backs toward the ropes as Impact forces himself up to one knee. Now to his feet!  Clayton steps onto the middle rope! He’s thinking about hitting “The Brand Deal! Clayton launches—

Eve:  “BRAND DEAL”! SPRINGBOARD STUNNER!

Deadprez: IMPACT CATCHES HIM IN MID-AIR! HE CAUGHT HIM! HE CAUGHT HIM! EVISCERATION! DOUBLE KNEE FACEBUSTER! Clayton’s skull snaps back as he crashes to the mat! Impact collapses over him, hooking both legs!

ONE!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…AND QUALIFYING FOR THE EXTREME CHAMBER MATCH, IMPACT!

( The screen flashes: “EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER QUALIFIER: IMPACT – QUALIFIED” )

Gavin Kirkland: HE DID IT! IMPACT DID IT! HE COUNTERED THE BRAND DEAL AND PUNCHED HIS TICKET TO THE EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER!

Eve: Clayton Golde rolled the dice one too many times, and Impact made him pay! 

( Impact rolls off Clayton, sitting up slowly as the crowd roars. He grips the back of his neck, breathing deep then looks down at Clayton Golde. Impact pulls himself to his feet as his music hits. He raises a fist. Clayton lays motionless in the ring, chest rising and falling. )

Deadprez: Love him or hate him, Clayton Golde just went to war tonight. He definitely had Impact on the ropes many times in this match up. That if he didn’t make that one slip up, we could have been seeing a different result.

( Impact exits the ring and raises his fist in the air, he smiles as he talks to the camera. )

IMPACT: Great match, but it ain’t going to stop me from winning back gold. So all I got to say is, see you in the Chamber!

( The scene fades with him walking up the ramp, raising both fist in the air as the scene fades to commercial. )

(The camera cuts backstage to Mikaela Street who is shown smiling and holding a microphone.)

Mikaela Street: Ladies and gentlemen at this time I would like to welcome the EAW Universal Women’s Champion… MS. EXXXXXXXXXXXXXTREME!!!!

(Ms. Extreme enters smiling and shining the EAW Universal Women’s Championship around her waist.)

Ms. Extreme: Thank you Mikaela for that fine introduction. I am glad to be here. It is good to be here on Showdown!!!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Mikaela Street: No problem at all! Now Ms. Extreme, can you let the whole world know how you are feeling?

Ms. Extreme: It feels good Mikaela. It is good to be the champ!

Mikaela Street: I am sure it is. But that is not what I am talking about of course. Recently you were attacked viciously by none other than Xander Payne. Have you recovered from that incident?

Ms. Extreme: You are damn right I have Mikaela! I am back and I am better and stronger than ever! You see it doesn’t matter how big Xander Payne is, he is not bigger than my spirit and my spirit has not and never will be broken! That is why I am the champ and many others around here are not.

Mikaela Street: I am glad to hear that Ms. Extreme. It is very good that you are feeling well and you are confident. Does that mean we can expect some more great matches and title defenses in the near future?

Ms. Extreme: Of course you can Mikaela. You all saw what I did up against KASAI and showed that I am the superior talent. KASAI talks a lot of bullshit but I produce results. KASAI can say whatever she wants about how that match ended, continue to whine and bitch and cry like she does, but she is nothing compared to me and I proved that definitively. But KASAI isn’t special in that regard. I have beaten them all at this point. At this point my legacy is such that I could very well be argued to be the best female competitor in EAW history. When you look at all of the great names who have held that title you might think that is hyperbole but just look at all of the names I have beaten over my long illustrious career

Mikaela Street: You do make a good point Ms. Extreme. You really have beaten them all.

Ms. Extreme: Exactly. And that is why I am sure all of these low grade females out here are looking to get into the Extreme Elimination Chamber with me. They all realize that this is the rare opportunity that they can gang up on me and maybe work together to finally get the strap off me. Because everyone knows I have already beaten all of them one on one and they really have no hope of beating me that way. But honestly Mikaela? They don’t have much chance of beating me in an Extreme Elimination Chamber either. It is very sad they would think they have a shot but oh well I guess it is good to have confidence. But I think everyone here in Memphis knows that I am just better than everyone!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Ms. Extreme: Hmm I guess I should have expected all of you Southern hicks would be out here booing me. You hate me because you want to be with me but you can’t! Gotta go home to them sweathogs sweeties! Hahaha!

Crowd: YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!

Ms. Extreme: These fans need to understand that we are still in the earliest days of my title reign. I have already beaten everyone. But I am going to just beat everyone again. Maybe even a couple more times. You could say we aren’t even done with the first quarter of my title reign. I am restoring prestige to this championship that has for too long been held by low talent individuals and women who shouldn’t even be in the wrestling business to begin with.

Mikaela Street: Come on Camille… You have to think that there is at least someone on the roster who measures up to you.

Ms. Extreme: I really don’t Mikaela. I am at the very top of this industry dominating this division and not for the first time. For some people having one championship reign is good enough. But then there are unicorns like myself who win title after title after title and our dominance is truly enduring. That is what a real legend is. I may have made some mistakes in the past but that won’t happen this time because I finally have it all together and you are loking at the perfect wrestler. You are looking at what everyone else in EAW claims to be. Every champion in EAW who has claimed to be The Goat or The Ace or The God or The Best just uses those things as a catchphrase to put on their trashy merchandise mass produced by Chinese slave labor. When I tell you that I am the best, you can believe it because I back it up in that ring setting records night in and night out.

Mikaela Street: Oh my god Camille! You are like so full of yourself!

Ms. Extreme: You would be too if you had the accolades that I do sweetheart. Now why don’t you run along because you are starting to get on my nerves with comments like that. You see for me it is not even arrogance it is straight facts and I dare every woman on this roster to step up and step into that Extreme Elimination Chamber. But be very careful about it because you just might not step out. You step to me and you get torn down and you get taken down. It’s the end of your career. Maybe you can get a nice payoff working with the champ. Enjoy the money because that’s the best it will get for you. That championship money? It’s all going right into my bank account and all of you poor losers will forever be riding my coattails hoping to even get a taste of the lifestyle that Ms. Extreme lives each and every day!

(Ms. Extreme pats Mikaela on the head condescendingly before leaving as the crowd continues to boo.)

(The camera cuts to a commercial for Xander Payne’s cookbook on sale now!)

 

(Showdown returns from a commercial break revealing Gina Romano at the center of the ring looking towards to the upcoming main event that just on the line with a huge smile on her face.)

Gina Romano: YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL AND IT’S THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER QUALIFYING MATCH!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

(‘Gloria’ by the London Symphony Orchestra plays to a thunderous ovation as Bea Valentine strides toward the ring with regal composure, Cornelius escorting her with polished grandeur. She is still visibly irritated about what transpired at The Last Stand as she goes into the ring confidently.)

Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST!… ACCOMPANIED BY CORNELIUS!… FROM BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS!… WEIGHING IN AT 143 POUNDS!…THE ETERNAL EMPRESS…. BEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!… VALENTINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Gavin Kirkland: The Eternal Empress is in the building! She is looking to secure her place inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber tonight and it is going to be scintillating to witness just how far she is willing to push her magnificent self to earn it!

Eve: She is still carrying the weight of that discomfort from The Last Stand and Brianna Hill is not going to be standing in an enviable position tonight. When Valentine enters with this kind of pent-up frustration, it becomes exceedingly difficult to keep her under control or force her down.

Deadprez: This is going to be a grueling night for both competitors who are fighting for such a coveted position in the Answers World Championship Extreme Elimination Chamber match. We will see how this unfolds and who emerges ready for that monumental challenge.

(‘Mirtazapine’ by Hayley Williams hits the speakers as Brianna Hill comes out with Silas Mason at her side, marching down the ramp with sharp determination. The sting of what occurred at The Last Stand lingers in their expressions, yet both carry a confidence that suggests they believe tonight is their moment to strike back and claim something monumental.’)

Gina Romano: INTRODUCING HER OPPONENT!… ACCOMPANIED BY SILAS MASON!… FROM CANCÚN, MEXICO!… WEIGHING IN AT 119 POUNDS!… SHE’S THE BUTTERFLY QUEEN!… BRIANNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!… HILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: She looks composed for now, but once that bell rings, all composure dissolves. Everything depends on how much Valentine is willing to permit Hill to endure before imposing her dominion.

Eve: Hill may have seized a significant triumph alongside Silas World at The Last Stand, but the question remains whether tonight becomes her next crowning moment or a sobering reminder of the gulf that still exists. The stakes are enormous for someone at this stage of her young career.

Gavin Kirkland: I believe in Brianna Hill and I think she can pull this off! CANCÚN IN THREE!

(DING DING DING!)

Gavin Kirkland: Two of the finest talents Showdown has to offer this season are crossing paths right here, the Eternal Empress against the Butterfly Queen. Eve, do you understand what this means? This is the kind of main event crafted for a pure and sophisticated soul like ME!

Eve: Please collect yourself and actually watch what unfolds, because the stakes are incredibly high for both of them. Brianna Hill might be eager to push her young career even closer to an Answers World Championship opportunity tonight by surviving a match that demands extreme endurance like the Extreme Elimination Chamber. Bea Valentine is likely aiming for that very same trajectory heading into this bout.

Deadprez: Brianna Hill had a remarkable showing at The Last Stand, and I am certain her opponent has been thoroughly provoked by what took place there. This could be either a brutal trial or an effortless triumph for Brianna Hil, depending entirely on what strength she brings into this contest.

Gavin Kirkland: Hill bursts out of her corner and tries to lock into a collar-and-elbow tie-up but Valentine brushes it off immediately and SMACKS her with a vicious right elbow across the chin that sends Brianna Hill tumbling away before the match can even start in a traditional manner. This is not the opening Bea Valentine had any intention of giving!

Deadprez: Valentine is already on to her next strike, swinging back and trying to decapitate Hill with a Discus Lariat, but Hill dives underneath with a Drop Toe Hold that sends Valentine throat-first into the middle rope! Hill realizes the opening instantly, rushes to the ropes, rebounds back toward her target… HILL SWINGS THROUGH THE ROPES LOOKING FOR THE HOTLINE KICK!

Eve: Valentine avoids that Tiger Feint Kick heading her way by pulling herself under the bottom rope and dropping to the apron. She alters her angle while Hill steps forward from the canvas trying to approach, but Valentine seizes Brianna Hill by the head and YANKS HER with a slam across the rope, sending her staggering backward inside the ring again.

Gavin Kirkland: Hill staggers for a moment, a deliciously vulnerable moment at that, and Valentine slips back into the ring with a leap from behind. Now her arm winds around Brianna’s neck, hastily applying the Sleeper Hold to simmer down the Butterfly Queen! Unfortunately, she is already too close to the ropes, her arm darting out for salvation before my beloved Bea can finish the job. Brianan Hill always finds some cheap little trick to survive!

Deadprez: Valentine refuses to let go and keeps wrenching it in. Brianna tries to shake her off and the official is forced to step in for a closer inspection, warning Bea Valentine to stop taking this any further.

Referee: (Off-Mic) Come on, Bea… ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!-

Deadprez: Silas Mason looks quite agitated at how Bea has been handling her craft in this match. Eventually she has to release or she risks disqualification as she loosens the hold… AND IN THE SAME BREATH DRIVES A KICK STRAIGHT INTO BRIANNA’S MIDSECTION! Cornelius appears to authorize some latitude toward his queen’s efforts, and Bea takes full advantage of it.

Eve: That strike leaves Hill doubled over with pain. Valentine presses her against the ropes and begins applying deliberate technique behind every motion, manipulating Brianan’s wrists, isolating her posture and shifting her base. Control is intelligently structured here and now Valentine transitions… AND SHE TAKES FLIGHT WITH MONKEY FLIP AND SENDS HILL SOARING CLEAN OVER! 

Gavin Kirkland: Hill gets sent over clean and planted on the canvas in an instant once Bea finally gets a proper glimpse of who she truly is. She is trying to dominate her all over again and I am absolutely living for it!

Deadprez: Valentine takes a steady walk toward Brianna who was sent flying just moments prior. She hoists her from the ground and grants just enough space to expose the chest before drawing back for a strike… A SINGLE CHOP CRACKS ACROSS THE STERNUM AND SENDS HILL STAGGERING BACKWARD TOWARD THE CORNER!

Eve: Bea advances to close the distance the moment she sees Brianan reeling near the corner. She tries to fire off another chop but misses as Brianan slips underneath in time as the counter is sharp and she drives an elbow directly into Bea’s torso which forces Valentine into the corner instead!

Gavin Kirkland: Hill jogs out of the corner and makes some distance before putting some spirit into it, looking to build a bit of wind-up damage on Bea…. RUNNING KNEE COMES CRASHING IN AT THE CORNER!

Eve: AND THAT MOMENTUM DOES NOT SEEM TO PAY OFF IN HER FAVOR! Silas Mason is watching in disbelief as Bea Valentine begins outmaneuvering one of his prized Silas World protégées! Hill is lifted across both shoulders when Brianan was meant to go for the knee and that plan collapses instantly…. CORNER SITOUT POWERBOMB PLANTS AND DRIVES HILL DOWN WITH EMPHATIC FORCE!

Gavin Kirkland: Valentine drags her away from those ropes and now pins her! 

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA SOMEHOW MANAGED TO KICK OUT JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME AND SCRAMBLE OUT OF THAT PERILOUS PREDICAMENT BEFORE THINGS ESCALATED INTO SOMETHING FAR MORE CATASTROPHIC AT THE COUNT OF TWO! I swear if she were any more impressive I would need someone to hold me back right now!

Deadprez: That powerbomb possessed enough raw force to leave Hill rattled and disoriented for a prolonged moment, yet nothing about that seems to deter Valentine from advancing her malicious cadence. Now Valentine transitions immediately after the powerbomb impact, flipping Hill onto her front and driving a knee directly into the spine, and that maneuver compounds the anguish for Brianna and it is only becoming increasingly dire from this position!

Eve: Audible groans make it clear that the torque on her back is intensifying. She is attempting to resist the pressure but the structural leverage is against her. Valentine rises and hits a rolling double knee drop across the same compromised region, which applies critical cumulative damage before standing upward… THE SUBSEQUENT MOONSAULT INTO ANOTHER DOUBLE KNEE LANDING ON THE IDENTICAL FOCAL POINT AS A GOOD ESCALATION! INSULT TO INJURY CONNECTS! That is targeted offense designed to neutralize mobility and core stability all at once! 

Gavin Kirkland: Hill rolls to the outside and Silas Mason finally rushes in to provide what looks like actual competent assistance. About time he did something beneficial for his faction instead of lumbering around like a glorified paperweight. Observe closely and learn from a genuine gentleman such as myself.

Eve: Valentine is already upright moments after delivering Insult to Injury. She sprints toward the ropes and targets the exact angle where Hill is standing on the outside…. THE BASEMENT DROPKICK THROUGH THE ROPES COLLIDES DIRECTLY WITH HILL’S SPINE AND SENDS HER COLLAPSING ACROSS THE APRON! SILAS MASON HESITATES AND ELECTS NOT TO INTERVENE IMMEDIATELY WHICH IS A QUESTIONABLE TACTICAL CHOICE! 

Deadprez: That dropkick is delivered with caustic velocity, and the whiplash effect alone nearly sends Hill careening over the barricade as the impact launches her body forward like a discarded projectile! 

Gavin Kirkland: And now Valentine is dragging Brianna back up, even after she crashed into the barricade. Bea is exploiting every single lapse in defense as she hoists Hill up by the leg…. 

(CRACK!)

Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD! AN ALABAMA SLAM DRIVES HILL AGAINST THE EDGE OF THE GUARDRAIL AND THE FRONT ROW IS REACTING LIKE THEY HAVE WITNESSED SOME CHAOTIC SPECTACLE! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU?! HAVE SOME COMPASSION!

Eve: Brianna Hill just had her entire trajectory nearly severed with that Alabama Slam! The torque across her lumbar spine could have been the definitive turning point of this entire contest. If she cannot stabilize herself after that impact, her prospects in this Extreme Elimination Chamber qualifying match diminish drastically. Valentine is maintaining a relentless pace of control, and the disparity in momentum is becoming increasingly difficult for Hill to counter.

Deadprez: Hill has every intention of demonstrating that she deserves her place at this echelon. Silas World stands tall after that contentious triumph at The Last Stand, and she is aiming to elevate the faction’s prestige. That ambition alone is driving her to endure punishment that would fold most elitists!

Gavin Kirkland: Valentine is razor sharp right now. She drags the still-battered Hill back inside the ring and Hill can barely crawl across the canvas. Her back is screaming from the accumulation of damage but she will have to grit her teeth to a heroic degree here and I firmly believe SHE CAN! 

Eve: Valentine slides back into the ring and remains observant, analysing Hill’s laboured posture. Hill scarcely manages to pull herself upright using the ropes before Valentine propels forward… RUNNING DROPKICK TO THE THROAT COLLAPSES HILL INSTANTLY, AND THE VELOCITY OF THE REBOUND AMPLIFIES THE TRAUMA! Both the precision and timing make that dropkick a punishing blow that compounds all previous damage!

Gavin Kirkland: Hill is in a dire predicament after absorbing repeated strikes to her spine and now Valentine is punishing her throat which might be very difficult for Brianna to swallow by the end of the night! 

Eve: What on earth are you even saying!?!?!?!? 

Gavin Kirkland: The throat? It is essential for swallowing your food, guys! I am deeply concerned about her physical well-being, so kindly lift your minds out of the gutter and appreciate my medical insight! PLEASE!

Deadprez: Uh… if that is what you meant, then sure, dawg.

Eve: ANYWAY! Valentine is ascending the second rope while Brianna Hill struggles to rise, clutching both her lower back and ribcage. She is attempting to stabilise her frame as Valentine prepares to take flight…. DIVING CLOTHESLINE FROM VALENTINE!-

Gavin Kirkland: She tries to reapproach with the same blistering velocity… BUT GETS STRUCK CLEAN IN THE JAW WITH A BICYCLE KICK THAT ABSOLUTELY RATTLES HER SKULL AND THAT CONNECTION REVERBERATES THROUGH HER WHOLE POSTURE AND SENDS HER REELING ACROSS THE RING! Valentine even stumbles into a seated position and Hill is still collapsed in the corner. This is pandemonium and I love it! 

Eve: Hill’s respite is minimal as she attempts to reorient her posture, tending to her back briefly before pushing off with measured acceleration. Now Hill charges out of the corner and the velocity is deliberate and focused…. PENALTY KICK AT VALENTINE AND THE BUTTERFLY QUEEN OF SILAS WORLD-

Deadprez: BUT THE STRIKE IS SUSPENDED MID-EXECUTION AS VALENTINE LIFTS HER LEG JUST ENOUGH TO DISRUPT THE TRAJECTORY AND REDIRECTS HILL WITH A SUDDEN DROP TOE HOLD! A clever counter that plants Hill directly to the canvas before Valentine capsizes her weight across Hill’s back and loops her arms across the face…. SHE IS ATTEMPTING TO CINCH IN A CROSSFACE!-

Gavin Kirkland: WAIT! Hill pushes through before Valentine can secure the submission as Brianna plants her feet, drives her weight downward and forces Valentine to flip forward as Hill then presses her knee against Valentine’s face and scrambles for the legs- HOOKS BOTH LEGS FOR THE ROLL UP ATTEMPT! UNORTHODOX SETUP OR NOT, IT IS EFFECTIVE! BRIANNA HAS BEA! 

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA FOUGHT HER WAY INTO A CLEVER PINNING PREDICAMENT AND ALMOST TOPPLED BEA WITH THAT SURPRISE ROLLUP! NOT QUITE ENOUGH AS VALENTINE KICKED OUT AT TWO AND SCRAMBLED FREE, BUT MY GOODNESS THAT WAS RAZOR CLOSE!

Eve: Hill is still clutching her back which has been targeted relentlessly, yet she forces herself upright anyway! Valentine rises at the same pace attempting to regain her equilibrium, but Hill ducks beneath the incoming arm and scoops her straight off the canvas in one fluid motion… SAITO SUPLEX PLANTS BEA! SHE HAS BEEN DRIVEN DOWN WITH AUTHORITATIVE FORCE!

Deadprez: She wagered everything on that exchange and Brianna Hill executed with impeccable timing! The Saito Suplex hit the moment she countered that clothesline and Bea’s body bounced off the mat in a stunned daze. Hill might be prepared to pursue something even more hazardous as she crawls forward trying to steady herself again and she could be setting up for a dangerous spot! 

Gavin Kirkland: Hill is hauling herself back up toward the second rope and is slowly climbing all the way to the top! Valentine is scrambling to beat her there, trying to regain the speed that Hill momentarily seized with that Saito Suplex! Silas Mason is watching with those enormous eyes of his, making sure she is alright and ready to risk everything again!

Deadprez: She has completed her ascent and the entire structure seems to creak under her weight as Valentine is still down, struggling to recover from the suplex! Hill is taking the gamble and launching all caution into the abyss!… FLYING CROSSBODY INCOMING-

Eve: AND TO EVERYONE’S SURPRISE, VALENTINE MANAGES TO STABILIZE HER FOOTING AND CATCH HER IN MIDAIR! THAT IS PRODIGIOUS STRENGTH ON DISPLAY! Valentine absorbs the impact, cinches Hill into her arms, and tosses her upward across the ropes before securing her fully on her shoulders in a fireman carry position!… FIREMAN’S CARRY DRIVER BY BEA VALENTINE! THAT ONE TAKES BRIANNA DOWN AND COLLAPSES HER BODY! 

Gavin Kirkland: Hill has been flattened and Valentine wastes no time reclaiming her stance after drilling her into the canvas for what she surely believes will be the decisive blow. She looks absolutely convinced she is about to demonstrate how this should be executed with genuine finesse!

Eve: Valentine is moving toward the corner with methodical certainty. She has already pulled herself upright after levelling Brianna and now she is scaling the ropes. Hill is barely even attempting to get up, her body refusing to cooperate after the sheer punishment inflicted on her back! 

Deadprez: Silas Mason is shouting encouragement from ringside, offering whatever moral support he can. Hill is crawling, inch by inch, while Valentine stands firm atop the turnbuckle, preparing to take flight!… FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLEBEA FROM THE TOP CRASHES DIRECTLY ONTO BRIANNA’S SPINE! THAT IS ABSOLUTE AGONY FOR HILL! THE FROG SPLASH LANDS ON THE MOST VULNERABLE POINT POSSIBLE AND PULVERISES HER ENTIRELY!

Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA HAS BEEN SPLATTERED BENEATH THE SHEER FORCE OF THAT FROG SPLASH, THE SIGNATURE OF BEA VALENTINE TAKING ITS ULTIMATE TOLL! VALENTINE FLIPS HER OVER AND URGENTLY HOOKS THE LEG, DESPERATE TO SECURE HER POSITION INSIDE THE EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER RIGHT HERE AND NOW!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Gavin Kirkland: SO CLOSE! SO CLOSE! BRIANNA HILL KICKED OUT AT THE VERY LAST HEARTBEAT DESPITE EVERY SHARD OF PAIN RIPPING THROUGH HER BODY! THAT IS THE SPIRIT OF A JEWEL IN HER FACTION AND SHE IS PROVING IT WITH EVERY DESPERATE BREATH SHE TAKES!

Eve: Valentine certainly does not concern herself with who is the gem or the centerpiece. Her priority is ending this match decisively and securing her chamber position without another wasted second. She already appears to have the next plan in motion and this could be catastrophic for Silas Mason’s confidence if it fails!

Deadprez: Hill is attempting to recover but this is barely a crawl. Calling it a recovery would be generous at best.

Gavin Kirkland: It might not even matter because Valentine has analysed every vulnerability in Brianna’s frame! She drags her off the canvas while the front row collectively leans forward wanting to see if Bea can cement her path to the chamber!… ARMS ARE FULLY HOOKED AND SHE TWISTS HER AROUND INTO POSITION! BEA IS READY FOR BEA-MY-VALENTINE!-

Eve: HILL IS TRYING TO WRIGGLE FREE IN THE FINAL INSTANT! Valentine has the hold secured but cannot maintain the leverage after Hill generates enough force to shove her off! Hill rushes forward and drives a knee straight into Valentine’s abdomen which almost folds her in half!

Gavin Kirkland: The Butterfly Queen drops to her knees from that strike delivered by the Eternal Empress! Hill is desperate to remain upright but Valentine recovers rapidly and wraps her arms around Hill’s waist!… VALENTINE ATTEMPTS TO LAUNCH HER WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!

Deadprez: Hill lowers her center of gravity and plants both feet, refusing to be lifted! She drives the first elbow into Valentine’s cheek but it is not enough to dislodge her!… AND THE SECOND ELBOW CONNECTS FAR CLEANER AND JOLTS VALENTINE BACKWARD, BREAKING HER BALANCE AND FORCING HER GRIP LOOSE!

Eve: Bea snaps her neck back and tries to shake off the stinging pain, reaching forward again, but OOH! ANOTHER ELBOW COLLIDES WITH FEROCIOUS PRECISION AND SENDS HER REELING ONCE MORE! BRIANNA IS MUSTERING A FERAL SURGE OF OFFENSE AND CARVING THROUGH HER ARSENAL! 

Gavin Kirkland: Valentine is thrown backward and hits the ropes almost involuntarily… ONLY TO WALK STRAIGHT INTO THE BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE THAT STRIKES ACROSS HER JAW AND NEARLY DROPS HER FLAT ONTO HER KNEES! THAT ONE CONNECTED SO CLEANLY IT COULD HAVE RATTLED THE WHOLE ARENA! BRIANNA HILL MIGHT HAVE FINALLY OPENED A TRUE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR THE ETERNAL EMPRESS!

Deadprez: And Bea collapses onto one knee, barely attempting to rise after absorbing that knee strike. Hill seizes the moment and sprints toward the ropes, charging up whatever remains in her reserves even as her agony becomes unbearable!… SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB TAKES DOWN BEA! HILL VAULTS OVER WITH ASTONISHING AGILITY AND DRIVES VALENTINE STRAIGHT INTO THE CANVAS BEFORE FOLDING INTO THE COVER ATTEMPT!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Eve: TWO! VALENTINE POWERS OUT AT TWO BUT THIS IS FAR FROM FINISHED! HILL IS STRUGGLING THROUGH AGONY JUST TO GET HER HANDS ON BEA AGAIN, PULLING HER OFF THE CANVAS IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB! SHE HAS BOTH ARMS HOOKED AND IS TRYING TO FORCE THE MOMENTUM FORWARD!…. BRIANNA IS LOOKING FOR THE GRUDGE RIGHT AWAY!

Gavin Kirkland: Both of them are still tearing into each other and neither one is willing to yield an inch to the other! Valentine is twisting at the hips with both legs shaking from the impact, throwing Hill off balance and forcing Brianna to release her grip. Dude, I am SWEATING uncontrollably!

Deadprez: That was a desperate break for the opportunity to slip away and Valentine uses it instantly. She surges forward and drives Hill backward, stomping toward her with renewed hostility… AND A SUPERKICK CRASHES INTO THE GUT THAT FOLDS BRIANNA AND DROPS HER IN A HEAP, CLUTCHING WHERE IT BURNS!

Eve: Valentine’s posture sharpens the moment she sees the opening. Superkick earlier weakened Hill’s midsection and the superkick just compounded the trauma! Valentine retracts only a step… BEA TRIGGER AT FULL SPEED TOWARD A GROUNDED BRIANNA!

Gavin Kirkland: WHAT A CLOTHESLINE FROM BRIANNA! THAT COLLISION NEARLY RIPPED VALENTINE OUT OF HER BOOTS-

Deadprez: WHAT?! 

Gavin Kirkland: OH FUCK YEAH! 

Deadprez: AH HELL NAH DAWG, SHE IS A CRAZY MONSTER! THAT KIND OF FEROCITY SHOULD NOT BE HUMANLY POSSIBLE AT THIS STAGE OF THE MATCH!

Eve: THAT CLOTHESLINE TURNED VALENTINE INSIDE OUT AND YET HILL MAKES IT APPEAR ALMOST EFFORTLESS DESPITE THE DAMAGE GNAWING AT HER SPINE! SHE FORCES HERSELF OFF THE CANVAS IMMEDIATELY AFTER DELIVERING THAT THUNDEROUS BLOW AND VALENTINE CHARGES RIGHT BACK AT HER WITH RECKLESS DEFIANCE-

Gavin Kirkland: BREAKTHROUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RUNNING ENZUIGIRI LAUNCHES THROUGH THE AIR AND DETONATES AGAINST THE SIDE OF VALENTINE’S FACE, CUTTING HER VELOCITY DOWN TO ABSOLUTE ZERO! BEA HAS BEEN TAKEN DOWN IN COLOSSAL FASHION! THIS IS BRIANNA HILL’S CHANCE TO SEIZE THE IMPOSSIBLE!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Gavin Kirkland: TWO! TWO! THAT WAS STILL ONLY TWO! BRIANNA HILL WAS A FINGERTIP AWAY FROM QUALIFYING FOR THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH BUT IT JUST WAS NOT ENOUGH AS BEA VALENTINE FORCED HER WAY OUT AT THE VERY LAST MOMENT AND SHATTERED THE MOMENTUM!

Eve: SILAS MASON LOOKS ABSOLUTELY BEWILDERED THAT HILL HAS NOT SECURED IT YET. SHE WAS PAINFULLY CLOSE TO CLAIMING THE WIN AND PUNCHING HER TICKET INTO THE CHAMBER! BUT HILL IS STILL DETERMINED TO SHOW THAT SHE BELONGS AND HER EYES ARE FIXED SHARPLY ON VALENTINE AS SHE TRIES TO RISE AFTER THAT DEVASTATING BREAKTHROUGH KICK!

Deadprez: Valentine eventually pushes herself upright on unsteady legs and Hill carves an escape route to the corner… THROWING HERSELF FORWARD INTO A HEADSCISSORS THAT FLIPS VALENTINE ACROSS THE CANVAS! SHE IS TRYING TO APPLY THE FULL SANGUINE PARADISE AND FOLD BEA INTO A SPINNING CRADLE THAT COULD HAVE ENDED THIS ENTIRE CONFLICT-

Gavin Kirkland: WAIT! WAIT! VALENTINE COUNTERS! SHE SENDS HILL CRASHING OFF THAT HEADSCISSORS TAKEDOWN AND TWISTS RIGHT BACK TO HER FEET BEFORE CATCHING HILL IN HER FAMILIAR GRIP AS SHE REJOINS CENTER RING!…. THE CONSPIRACY-

Eve: VALENTINE TURNS BACK TOWARD HILL, READY TO FOLLOW UP AFTER ATTEMPTING THE CONSPIRACY- A SUDDEN SLAP SNAPS ACROSS HER CHEEK, TURNS HER COMPLETELY AWAY! THAT STRIKE WAS PERFECTLY TIMED AND IT BOUGHT HILL A CRUCIAL HEARTBEAT OF SURVIVAL!

Gavin Kirkland: A sharp palm saves her and Valentine drops to one knee from the sheer sting of it! Hill forces herself upright and she is clearly loading one more decisive attack!… SHE CHARGES IN AND THIS COULD BE HER MOMENT FOR HITS DIFFERENT!-

Deadprez: NO! HER BACK GIVES OUT AT THE FINAL SECOND AND SHE COLLAPSES TO HER KNEES BEFORE SHE CAN FULLY COMMIT TO THE STRIKE! THE DAMAGE SUSTAINED EARLIER IN THE MATCH IS FINALLY CATCHING UP TO HER!

Gavin Kirkland: VALENTINE HAS JUST ENOUGH CLARITY TO COVER THE DISTANCE AND LOCK ONTO HER TARGET!… BEA STING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUMPING MUSHROOM STOMP CRUSHES BRIANNA HILL AND THAT IMPACT MIGHT HAVE ENDED HER NIGHT ENTIRELY! SILAS MASON IS SHOUTING IN PANIC AT RINGSIDE, DESPERATE TO STOP THIS OUTCOME, BUT THERE IS NOTHING HE CAN DO NOW! 

Eve: BEA GOES FOR A COVER!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(DING DING DING!) 

Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER AND WILL BE QUALIFIED INTO THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER!…. BEA VALENTINE! 

(‘Gloria’ by the London Symphony Orchestra plays as Bea Valentine can barely get off the ground before Cornelius rushes in to assist, taking careful care of his madam after a grueling, hard-fought match to earn her place inside the ECC.)

Eve: WOW! Great match! Tremendous sequences from start to finish and remarkable intensity from both competitors but in the end, Bea Valentine has earned her place in the chamber while Brianna Hill pushed her to the brink and proved just how arduous the pursuit of becoming a top champion truly is! Nothing about this road is ever effortless and tonight showcased that vividly.

Gavin Kirkland: ALL HAIL! ALL HAIL THE BUTTERFLY QUEEN! ALL HAIL THE ETERNAL EMPRESS! WHAT A SPECTACULAR DISPLAY FROM BOTH OF THESE GORGEOUS AND TERRIFYING ELITISTS!

Deadprez: That was genuinely entertaining. Hill tried everything in her arsenal to prove she belongs as the gem of Silas World but it just was not enough. Valentine overcame the Eternal Empress tonight and with that, Hill’s chance has been taken from her and filed away.

(While Bea Valentine takes her leave from the ring with assistance from Cornelius, who helps her walk toward the exit and down the aisle, the camera pans to the loud boos almost drowning out her theme. Donovan Duke, Harper Lee, Pandora Paisley, and Vincent Mondrian emerge onto the stage, standing tall before all four deliberately make their way to the ring, where Brianna Hill and Silas World are still inside.)

Deadprez: Silas Mason is not happy, and after what happened at The Last Stand, tonight did not end the way he had hoped. Donovan Duke and Vincent Mondrian are a part of the Extreme Elimination Chamber and yet Brianna Hill was unable to defeat Bea Valentine!

Eve: And now The Chamber is set, and even Silas knows that while he has two in the Chamber, there are some unhappy people that Donovan Duke was giving the spot and look at Pandora Paisley, she is looking over at Silas Mason and Duke!

Gavin Kirkland: Everything is going to be fine.

(The theme dies down as Silas asks for a mic, he paces a little and finally gets his poise back before turning to the camera.)

Silas Mason: First off…. Brianna, what the hell are you doing!?

(Brianna’s eyes widen, she turns to Silas Mason a bit surprised that she was just called out, pointing at herself.)

Silas Mason: Yes, you! Don’t think that I didn’t know you were getting the hell out of dodge back at The Last Stand! You escaped really quick outside of the Temple of Trials match! Then, I ask you do to one thing… ONE thing and that was to keep Bea out of the Chamber, and you couldn’t do it!

(The crowd is silent as they look on very confused and yet Silas is pacing again, the rest of Silas World is just watching.)

Silas Mason: I brought you up from La Familia, a stable that was going NOWHERE and made you a STAR! I made sure that you won that Specialist Championship from that sorry as Nikki Kimura and you need to keep your end of the bargain!

(Brianna’s eyes widen, as Silas is right in her face, but suddenly, Pandora steps in between them both.)

Pandora Paisley: Hold on love, you are yelling at her for failing to be in the Chamber when you chose Donovan over me? Donovan already HAD his chance, I have not!

Silas Mason: Now… hold on a second Pandora, I know that you are upset and all about this, but Donovan is ready and we need to season you up a little more and –

Pandora Paisley: BOLLOCKS!

(The crowd explodes in cheers as Harper Lee now tries to get in-between them both, Donovan Duke is now trying to be peacemaker.)

Donovan Duke: LISTEN TO ME! The most important thing is that the Answers World Championship comes to Silas World, agreed!?

(Pandora gets in his face.)

Pandora Paisley: Piss off!

(The crowd explodes again as Silas starts to scream, losing control of the situation.)

Silas Mason: ENOUGH! ENOUGH! ENOUGH! WE are in control here! WE are! And I –

(Suddenly “Her” by Megan Thee Stallion starts to play as Silas Mason looks over at Kennedy Street walking out. She has a smile on her face looking at the implosion of Silas World, she quickly asks for the music to stop.)

Kennedy Street: Kennie doesn’t mean to interrupt your little soiree here, but wanted to come out here to solve this little spat, honey. See, with Road to Redemption right around the corner, why not go ahead and figure this out. Since you, Silas, decided to choose Donovan Duke to compete inside the Chamber, it means that both Pandora Paisley and Brianna Hill do not have any matches at Road to Redemption which would be a damn shame.

Silas Mason: YES! Yes, that is why you need to give them title shots even if Brianna needs to put in the work!

Brianna Hill: (Off Mic) WTF!?

Silas Mason: Be quiet, Brianna! So, what is it!?

Kennedy Street: Oh, it’s simple honey. At Road to Redemption, it will be Daryl Kinkade!
