DAY 1
(EAW Intro Plays)
(The scene opens up with a shot of Washington D.C., the Nation’s Capital building, also views of the White House, National Monument, The Mall, and Lincoln Memorial. As the camera pans, there is one man sitting at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. A very familiar face.)
Narrator: War is the oldest language mankind has ever spoken. Before ink touched parchment, before laws bound nations, there was the clash of steel, the crack of fire, and the cries of those who would not kneel. War is not waged only with weapons, it lives in the silence before the storm, in the stare across the battlefield, in the heartbeat that refuses to break.
(The scene fades to different footage of past wars from World War 1 & 2, Korean, Vietnam, Iraq, etc., and then it fades into different shots of various EAW wrestlers battling one another.)
Narrator: War strips us bare. It shows us who we are when the world decides mercy is no longer an option. Some fight for power, some fight for survival… but in the end, war remembers only the victors, and buries the rest in silence. And this weekend, for two nights, the EAW is going to war.
(The flags of Voltage, Dynasty, and Showdown fly high behind the narrator where he sits on the Lincoln Memorial. It then shows footage of Harper Lee holding up the National Elite Championship, it then has Solomon Stane walking down to the ring as flames erupt behind him. It then switches to Ashlynn Quinn with her New Breed Championship holding it tightly to her chest, then it has Cosmo Goldworthy waving his arms up and down, and then Candice Blair Ava after being victorious, having her arm raised high.)
Narrator: Dynasty, Voltage, and Showdown. Brand supremacy isn’t just a slogan, oh no, it’s survival. When you wear these colors, red, blue, yellow, when you carry these banners, you’re not just representing a name, you’re representing pride, legacy, and everything that was built before you.
(The footage then starts playing as the participants of the Divide & Conquer match are shown, from Vincent Mondrian, #Hashtag, Matthew Kazarma, and Brianna Hill, to DGS, Chiyo Gedo, Grace De Luca, Kirk Redwood, and Diego Montana. It then switches to SOSA Henderson pointing at Brian Daniels before they clash. It then fades into the Specialist Champion, Mia Santoro as she faces KASAI smiling, then to Holly Arrow posing.)
Narrator: This isn’t just about friendship, it’s about dominance. Each individual brand doesn’t take second place. Their brand doesn’t bend, doesn’t break, doesn’t bow down to anyone. When they walk into that ring, it’s not athlete versus athlete its identity versus identity.
(The scene then switches to Minerva leading Selina Reyes behind her as they look at one another before facing Saori Aizen and ARIA as a pair. It then switches to Daniella Atlas standing tall as she looks to win the Universal Women’s Championship from the champion, herself, none other than Ms. Extreme. Finally, it transitions to Jake Smith laughing while flanked by Caroline as standing across from him is Veena Adams holding the Answers World Championship proud.)
Narrator: It’s a war of empires, and they will burn every flag that isn’t theirs. Because at the end of the night, there can only be one name standing tall, one brand etched in history… and they will make damn sure it’s theirs.
(The footage now shows Elysium standing together in unity as the face two champions in Hardcore Champion Dr. Bethany Blue and EAW World Champion, Adam Lucas who stands side by side. It changes to Michael Machina running at lightning speed as Cy Henderson holds up the World Heavyweight Championship proudly.
Narrator: And finally, you don’t walk out of Brand Warfare and War Games the same way you walked in. These matches don’t just test your body; they test your soul. Chaos reigns supreme and in the other? The walls close in, the steel bites, and every second feels like a lifetime. In there, you find out what you’re really made of because War Games doesn’t care about your name, your reputation, or your accolades. It only cares if you can survive.
(The footage then shows the three Team Brand Warfare’s that consist of Dynasty’s Fire & Ice, Milli Banks, Limmy Monaghan, and Effy McAvoy. Showdown’s team of SHOWTIME, Daryl Kinkade, Xander Payne, and Donovan Duke. Finally, Voltage’s team of TLA, Cody Maverick, Jay Jerry Johnson, Miku Sakai, and Chris Elite. It then switches to the cage and War Games, with Dynasty’s Methuselah, BRAE, and Drake King. Showdown’s Joso, Bea Valentine, and Impact. Finally, Voltage’s Drake Armstrong, Hans Grayson, and Kai Rabeaux.)
Narrator: So tonight, the EAW Elitists don’t come to the Nation’s Capital to play games… they come to declare war.
(The Narrator smiles as he then turns and walks away into the Lincoln Memorial passing the flags of the three brands.)

???: AND NOW CAPITAL ONE AND EAW2K25 PRESENTS THE 2025 EAW TERRITORIAL INVASION!
(The camera pans into the as “The One” by Ke$ha plays throughout the National Park, home of the Washington Commanders. The sold out stadium is on their feet as jets do a fly by and fireworks go off red, white and blue. The camera pans to the suites where President Donald Trump, JD Vance and his administration are there watching while the crowd boos them at the site of the Administration. The camera then pans to the Showdown announce team of Deadprez, Eve, and Gavin Kirkland.)
Deadprez: WELL! THEY AIN’T BOOING US DAWG! BUT WHAT AN INCREDIBLE NIGHT WE HAVE HERE IN THE NATIONS CAPITAL! WE ARE AT THE SOLD OUT NATIONAL PARK! I AM DEADPREZ, ACCOMPANIED WITH MY SHOWDOWN COLLEAGUES OF EVE AND GAVIN KIRKLAND! WE ALSO HAVE DYNAST’S ANNOUNCE TEAM OF STEW-O, JAKE MERCER, AND FLANNERY MCCOY! ON THE VOLTAGE SIDE WE HAVE RICH RUSSILLO, THAT BLAZEVICH, AND PERSEPHONE! THESE NEXT TWO NIGHTS ARE GONNA BE OFF THE CHAIN!
Eve: THAT IS RIGHT PREZ! TERRITORIAL INVASION! WAR GAMES! BRAND WARFARE! DIVIDE & CONQUER! NOT INCLUDING ALL THE TITLES ON THE LINE! A TWO FALLS OF TERROR! SOME INCREDIBLE TAG TEAM ACTION AND SOME VERY IMPORTANT TRIPLE THREATS! THE STAKES ARE HIGH ON THE ROAD TO THE END OF THE YEAR AND THE FIRST HALF OF THE SEASON!
Gavin Kirkland: AND WE ARE GOING TO KICK IT OFF WITH A MAIN EVENT ANYWHERE! WAIT UNTIL THE FANS SEE THIS ONE! TERRITORIAL INVASION 2025 IS NOW!!!!
(The first match graphic appears as the fans erupt in loud cheers, then heading to Gina Romano ready to introduce the participants.)
(After the graphic, the camera has cut back to the ring where Gina Romano is standing with a microphone in hand as she is ready to start the introductions for the next match.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! Our opening contest for Territorial Invasion is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Gina Romano: …and it is for the ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING ANSWERS! WORLD! CHAMPIONSHIP!
(‘Metalingus’ by Alter Bridge starts playing and the crowd’s reaction goes cold. The reaction gets even colder as the challenger Jake Smith enters the arena. Naturally, he is not coming alone as Caroline is following closely behind. These two are extremely focused as they tune out the crowd and head to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first and making his way to the ring is the CHALLENGER! Representing Figura Prismatis and being accompanied by CAROLINE! From Parts Unknown! Here is “THE PROCESS” JAKE SMITH!
Deadprez: Here comes a very determined challenger as he heads to the ring, and not alone of course, as he challenges Veena Adams for the Answers World Championship. You can’t see it on his face, but he has got to be feeling pretty good after once again attacking Veena last week.
Gavin Kirkland: I’m curious. I like Jake and all, but is he announced from Parts Unknown because he forgot where he’s from? Did the fumes from Caroline’s cauldron start getting to him?
Eve: Who knows? But what we do know is that Jake is looking to leave Territorial Invasion as a two-time Answers World Champion and a three-time EAW World Champion overall. If the last few weeks tell the tale, then the Champion is in a huge mess of trouble.
(Jake enters the ring as Caroline takes her place at ringside as his entrance music is replaced by “7 Rings” by Ariana Grande. Any coldness because of Jake immediately disappears as the Answers World Champion Veena Adams enters the arena to the extremely loud cheers from the crowd. She raises the title in the air, but there is fire in her eyes as she doesn’t waste a second heading to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing his opponent! From Greenwich, Connecticut. Weighing 137 pounds! Here is the REIGNING AND DEFENDING EAW ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! “THE GOLDEN STAR” VEENA ADAMS!!
Gavin Kirkland: WOOOOOOOO! Veena is here and Veena is looking so good as she looks to rip her challenger apart limb from limb.
Eve: Ever since successfully defending the title at Midsummer Massacre, Jake and the rest of Figura Prismatis have been making Veena’s life a living hell. She has been chomping at the bit to get her hands around Jake’s throat.
Deadprez: Veena is part of the legendary Adams Family and she has that fighting blood flowing through her. She wants to show the world that Jake has always been the ugly coward that she has been saying and get payback for all those attacks. Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to see another war. Buckle in because this is going to be a hell of a ride, dawg.
(Veena slides into the ring and tries to head right to Jake, but the referee holds her back and has her go to a neutral corner. Veena’s music goes off as she hands the referee the title belt as they present the title to the champion and challenger before presenting the title to the sold out crowd. The referee hands the title to Gina Romano before calling for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: There’s the sound of the bell and the Answers World Championship is on the line right now. Veena is ready for action as Jake is talking to Caroline.
Deadprez: Probably giving her some last minute instructions just in case things go badly for him. They are finally done talking as Jake turns to get ready for the match until–
Gavin Kirkland: SPEAR!! OH MY GAWD!! VEENA GOT A SPEAR RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE!! OH NO! JAKE DIDN’T KNOW WHAT HIT HIM AS VEENA QUICKLY GOES FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHH—–
Deadprez: JAKE IS ABLE TO KICK OUT AT TWO!! Do you know how embarrassing that would have been for Jake to lose his title shot so quickly? The timekeeper just showed me their stopwatch and if Jake would have lost, it would have been in a record 14 seconds.
Eve: From what I heard, lasting 14 seconds goes into many other aspects of Jake’s life.
Gavin Kirkland: HEY!! Don’t say that! That’s how rumors get started!!
Eve: As we get back to the match, Veena is just throwing lefts and rights as she clobbers the challenger as he rolls his way over to the ropes to force a break.
Deadprez: The referee is trying to hold Veena back as Jake rolls out of the ring and heads right towards Caroline. Aww isn’t that precious? More like sickening.
Gavin Kirkland: Stop that! They are just strategizing and readjusting the plan. Nothing sickening about that.
Eve: Of course you wouldn’t. Now Veena has been held back by the referee UNTIL SHE FINDS A BREAKWAY AND ROLLS OUT OF THE RING! SHE IS HEADING RIGHT TOWARDS JAKE!
Deadprez: Veena running full speed AS SHE SHOVES CAROLINE OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE HITTING THE THESZ PRESS ON JAKE! MORE PUNCHES FINDING THEIR WAY TO THE SKULL OF THE CHALLENGER!
Gavin Kirkland: WHY ISN’T THE REFEREE STARTING A COUNT? THEY ARE BOTH OUT OF THE RING AND VEENA IS BEATING THE HELL OUT OF JAKE!
Deadprez: Kennedy Street wants a definitive winner in this match, so the referee is going to allow a little, emphasize LITTLE, bit of leeway for this World Championship match.
Eve: Jake manages to block a punch AND HE THROWS A THUMB RIGHT INTO VEENA’S EYE! THAT IS A DIRTY TRICK THAT STOPS VEENA’S MOMENTUM RIGHT IN ITS TRACKS!
Gavin Kirkland: Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do in order to win. Now Jake shoves Veena off of him as he gets back to his feet. Veena is still down AS JAKE FIRES OFF A KICK–
Eve: AND CATCHES VEENA IN THE RIBS! THAT LOOKED LIKE A DAMN FOOTBALL PUNT! What? Is Jake trying out for pee-wee football?
Deadprez: That was a good one! But that was a hell of a kick that has Veena holding her ribs. Look at Jake feeling all proud and giving himself a pat on the back. What an egotistical asshole.
Gavin Kirkland: Nothing wrong with having confidence in yourself. Now Jake grabs Veena as the referee has waited long enough and has started a count. Jake tosses Veena back into the ring before following suit.
Eve: Caroline is back on her feet as Jake is starting to go past confident to the point of feeling very cocky as Veena rolls onto her knees. Jake hits the ropes and runs towards Veena after the rebound–
Deadprez: JAKE WITH A LOW DROPKICK CATCHING VEENA IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD! VEENA HITS THE MAT AS JAKE FOLLOWS UP WITH AN ELBOW TO THE BACK OF THE NECK!
Gavin Kirkland: The Champion is down as Jake quickly rolls her over for the cover! Shoulders are down!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWW—
Deadprez: VEENA KICKS OUT AT ONE! Jake is now just throwing forearms in the back of Veena’s head trying to do as much damage as he can to her neck before pulling her back to her feet.
Eve: Jake grabs Veena by the head and has the facelock applied BEFORE QUICKLY SNAPPING HER OVER WITH THE SUPLEX! JAKE FLOATS OVER FOR ANOTHER COVER–
Gavin Kirkland: BUT VEENA IS ABLE TO BRIDGE UP BEFORE A COUNT COULD START! That was a thing of beauty. Actually, everything Veena does is a thing of beauty.
Eve: Eww. No. Shut up. Anyways, Jake tries to bring Veena down, BUT VEENA CLOBBERS JAKE WITH A KNEE TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD!
Deadprez: Veena is free as she gets back to her feet while Jake recovers. Veena doesn’t waste a second AS SHE FIRES A KESAGIRI CHOP TO THE THROAT! GOOD GAWD!! Jake is down AND VEENA JUST STARTS CHOKING JAKE!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHY IN THE HELL IS THE REFEREE NOT IMMEDIATELY STARTING A COUNT? THIS REF IS PLAYING FAVORITES!!
Eve: If you would shut up and stop bitching, you would have seen and heard the referee start a count. Veena stopped on four because she would have been disqualified on five.
Deadprez: After all the crap Veena has gone through the last month or so, I would not blame her if she kept strangling Jake. But Veena wants more than just getting payback on Jake. She wants to hit him where it hurts and that is retaining the title.
Gavin Kirkland: Veena has a temper that she inherited from the Adams Family as she brings Jake back to his feet. She has a handful of Jake’s hair as she gets some momentum going BEFORE SHE TOSSES JAKE LIKE A FRISBEE! THAT’S NOT COOL!!
Deadprez: She wants Jake to feel like her bitch and using his hair to toss him around is a good start to that. Now Veena is plucking the strands of Jake’s hair from between her fingers.
Eve: Jake’s not gonna be happy about that. That hair cost Jake a lot of money!
Gavin Kirkland: How dare you insinuate that Jake’s hair is fake.
Eve: I’m not. I am flat out saying that some of Jake’s hair is fake!
Deadprez: Veena grabs Jake and whips him to the corner where he lands with a thud. Veena comes running in and catches him with a clothesline! Jake is dazed as Veena grabs Jake by the head AND RUNS OUT OF THE CORNER FOR A BULLDOG–
Gavin Kirkland: AND VEENA CRASHES AND BURNS HARD ON THE MAT… LOOK AT THAT!!
Eve: AND THERE’S CAROLINE MAKING HER PRESENCE FELT!! CAROLINE HELD ONTO JAKE’S LEGS WITH ALL HER MIGHT TO PREVENT VEENA FROM PULLING HIM OUT OF THE CORNER FOR THE BULLDOG!
Deadprez: Veena flew for the bulldog. Jake did not and Veena ended up landing on her hind quarters dawg.
Gavin Kirkland: If she needs help with that, I would be glad to massage her since I missed out on the chance to get choked by her.
Deadprez: Dawg, that’s gross.
Eve: You are so fucking creepy.
Gavin Kirkland: Veena is still on the mat as Jake comes out of the corner AND HE JUST KICKS VEENA RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SPINE!! GOOD GRIEF! THAT COULD HAVE LOOSENED A FEW DISCS!
Eve: Veena is down on the mat as Jake makes his way to the second ropes. He doesn’t do that very often so it’s going to be interesting to see what he has in mind.
Deadprez: Veena is starting to recover and get back to her feet as Jake is just laser focused on the Champion and to take her title… legally this time.
Gavin Kirkland: Veena is back on her feet AS JAKE COMES OFF THE SECOND ROPE WITH A CROSSBODY–
Eve: VEENA CAUGHT HIM! VEENA WAITED UNTIL THE PERFECT TIME AND THEN SHE CAUGHT JAKE RIGHT IN THE FACE WITH THAT JUMPING KNEE STRIKE!! JAKE DID NOT SEE THAT COMING! HANDS WERE DOWN IN EVERYTHING!
Deadprez: That could have broken his jaw or his nose with the force Veena had behind that knee. Jake is holding his face in pain as Veena applies the headscissors to Jake before rolling him over–
Gavin Kirkland: THE SCISSORS STOMP TO JAKE! AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN! PLEASE LET ME BE IN THIS MATCH! I WANNA BE JAKE SMITH RIGHT NOW!! LUCKY BASTARD!
Deadprez: First time anybody ever said that about Jake Smith in his life. Mark this down in your calendar, dawg. It will probably never happen again.
Eve: I think Jake is more dizzy than normal after those stomps as Veena finally stops AND DELIVERS AN ELBOW SMASH TO HIS HEAD! Veena rolls Jake over and hooks the leg!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHH-
Gavin Kirkland: JAKE KICKS OUT AT TWO! WOOOOOOOO! THIS MATCH CONTINUES! NOW DO THE SCISSOR STOMP TO ME VEENA!!
Eve: You’re gonna end up with a restraining order by the end of this show, Gavin.
Deadprez: Probably, but Veena doesn’t look amused at all right now as she takes Jake down as he was trying to get back to his feet AND SHE IS JUST UNLOADING ON HER CHALLENGER WITH THOSE MMA STYLE SHOTS!
Gavin Kirkland: She is beating the fuck out of Jake right now. WHY ISN’T THE REFEREE COUNTING THIS?? THIS IS ALMOST TOO MUCH TO WATCH?
Eve: Because none of those shots are illegal, Gavin. She can keep beating the fuck out of Jake and the referee doesn’t have to stop her unless they choose to end the match–
Deadprez: CAROLINE! CAROLINE IS ON THE RING APRON AND SHE IS DISTRACTING THE REFEREE AND VEENA CATCHES WHAT’S GOING ON!
Gavin Kirkland: Veena stops beating the crap out of poor Jake and walks over to Caroline AND THE LADIES ARE YELLING! THIS IS HOT! NOW START TEARING THE CLOTHES!!
Eve: SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU SICK FUCK!!! I SWEAR I’M GONNA HURT YOU!!
Deadprez: Yeah, dawg. You are starting to get unbearably creepy. BUT VEENA TAKES A SWING AT CAROLINE AND CAROLINE JUMPS OFF THE APRON–
Eve: BUT THAT GAVE JAKE ENOUGH TIME TO RECOVER AND GET BACK TO HIS FEET! HE GRABS VEENA AROUND THE WAIST AND DROPS HER WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!
Gavin Kirkland: VEENA DROPPED ON THE BACK OF HER HEAD AS JAKE KEEPS THE BRIDGE UP FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
Eve: JAKE LEAPS UP ENOUGH SO CAROLINE GETS ON THE APRON AGAIN AND HOLDS ONTO JAKE’S ANKLES! PUSHING HIM BACK ENOUGH TO ADD MORE PRESSURE TO THE BRIDGE!
THHHHHHHHHR—
Deadprez: THE CHAMP KICKS OUT AT TWO!! That little attempt at underhanded tactics didn’t work for Jake as this match continues on. Veena holding the back of her head in pain as Jake pulls her back to her feet–
Gavin Kirkland: AND JAKE USES A HANDFUL OF VEENA’S HAIR TO JUST PULL HER BACK DOWN TO THE MAT!! HAHAHAHAHA! TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY! VEENA DID IT FIRST!!
Eve: Yeah, what a big man Jake is right now. He’s gloating to the crowd about what he just did and the crowd is letting him hear it.
Deadprez: Veena is still down as Jake pulls Veena back to her feet and WHAT THE HELL IS THAT??
Gavin Kirkland: CAROLINE IS ON THE APRON AGAIN AND JAKE HAS A STEEL CHAIR! SHE SLID THE CHAIR IN UNDETECTED! CAROLINE HAS THE REFEREE DISTRACTED–
Deadprez: AND JAKE CRACKS VEENA IN THE BACK WITH THE CHAIR! ANOTHER AND ANOTHER TAKES VEENA DOWN TO HER KNEES IN PAIN!
Eve: He feels so proud of himself as he tosses the chair down on the mat and he picks Veena up. A kick to the gut doubles Veena over.
Gavin Kirkland: Jake now has Veena pulled into the gutwrench BEFORE LIFTING HER UP IN THE AIR! JAKE IS GONNA POWERBOMB VEENA ONTO THE STEEL CHAIR–
Eve: “THUMBS UP”! AT THE LAST SECOND, VEENA GRABBED JAKE BY THE BACK OF THE HEAD USING THE HAIR AND DRIVING HER THUMB INTO HIS WINDPIPE!!
Deadprez: VEENA IS USING THAT THUMB TO TRY AND CHOKE JAKE ONCE AGAIN SO HE WILL LOOSEN HIS GRIP! THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS AS VEENA NOW CHANGES POSITION–
Gavin Kirkland: DDT ON THE STEEL CHAIR! POOR JAKE’S SKULL CRACKS THAT CHAIR HARD! HOLY CRAP LOOK AT THE DENT IN THAT CHAIR!
Eve: A hard head meets hard steel as Veena tosses the chair out of the ring and hooks the leg for the cover!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEE–
Deadprez: JAKE POWERS OUT AT TWO!! CLOSE NEAR FALL FOR THE CHAMPION AS CAMERA ZOOMS IN ON JAKE AND WE SEE THAT JAKE’S FOREHEAD IS STARTING TO BLEED A LITTLE BIT!
Gavin Kirkland: Yeah, because look at the replay. When Veena brought him down for the DDT, Jake’s forehead caught the edge of the chair and that’s why he’s bleeding. That face is sponsored. THAT’S A MILLION DOLLAR FACE YOU JUST BUSTED OPEN VEENA!
Deadprez: I don’t think Veena gives a damn about that. She wants to beat the hell out of the man that has tried to make her life a living nightmare for the last month or so.
Eve: Veena grabs hold of Jake’s leg and turns him around INTO THE SINGLE LEG BOSTON CRAB!! FIRST SUBMISSION OF THE MATCH AND VEENA IS TRYING TO TAKE JAKE’S LEG AWAY AND ELIMINATE SOME OF HIS OFFENSE AT THE SAME TIME!!
Gavin Kirkland: But Jake still has plenty of energy as he is able to quickly scramble his way over to the rope and that forces a break, BUT THE BEAUTIFUL VEENA ISN’T LETTING GO!!
Eve: That forces the referee to start a count as Veena lifts up Jake leg AND SENDS HIS KNEE CRASHING INTO THE MAT! THAT CERTAINLY CAUSED SOME DAMAGE!
Deadprez: The referee is trying to keep Veena away from Jake but Veena is able to break away and grab Jake! She is trying to pull Jake to his feet, BUT JAKE REACHES THROUGH THE ROPES AND PULLS VEENA BY THE TOP AND SENDS HER THROAT FIRST INTO THE TOP ROPE!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake is such a lucky bastard. I wish I was in this match right now. Oh well. Maybe another time.
Eve: If we’re all lucky, then no. But Jake has rolled back into the ring as Veena holds her throat AS JAKE LEAPS UP AND TAKES VEENA DOWN WITH A NECKBREAKER! VEENA’S HEAD HIT THE MAT HARD ONE MORE TIME!
Deadprez: Jake grabs hold of Veena and lifts her up so both feet are on the middle rope. Jake positions Veena right where he wants her before grabbing her by the waist AND DROPPING DOWN–
Gavin Kirkland: SPIKE PILEDRIVER BY JAKE SMITH! JAKE USED THE ROPES FOR ASSISTANCE AND HE SPIKED VEENA’S HEAD INTO THE MAT HARD! THAT COULD HAVE DONE SOME NECK DAMAGE RIGHT THERE!
Deadprez: She is not moving right now as Jake quickly rolls her over for the cover! WE COULD HAVE A NEW CHAMPION RIGHT HERE!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEEE–
Gavin Kirkland: VEENA GETS HER SHOULDER UP AT TWO AND JAKE IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT THAT AT ALL!! NOW CAROLINE IS ON THE APRON AGAIN AND THEY ARE BOTH YELLING AT THE REFEREE!
Eve: Yeah because both of them yelling at the ref is going to do so much. All they are doing is giving Veena a chance to recover AND SHE HAS SOMEHOW MADE IT BACK TO HER FEET! SHE RUNS RIGHT FOR JAKE–
Deadprez: JAKE MOVES OUT OF THE WAY AND VEENA CRASHES INTO CAROLINE! CAROLINE FALLS TO THE FLOOR AS JAKE GRABS VEENA AND PULLS HER INTO A ROLL UP!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: WOOOOHOOOOOO!! JAKE IS PULLING THE TIGHTS! THIS IS THE BEST COVER IN ALL OF EAW HISTORY!! JAKE IS MY FAVORITE!
THHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEE!
Eve: VEENA IS ABLE TO MOVE ENOUGH TO REVERSE THE PIN! ROLES HAVE REVERSED AND VEENA HAS THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: NOW VEENA IS DOING THE SAME THING! VEENA IS NOW PULLING THE TIGHTS! OHH GAWD, DAWG!! THAT IS NOT A VIEW THAT ANY OF US WANNA SEE!
THHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEE!
Gavin Kirkland: JAKE IS ABLE TO KICK OUT AT TWO!! Jake quickly gets back to his feet as Veena was ready for him. Veena grabs him by the head AND LOOKS FOR THE BULLDOG AGAIN–
Deadprez: JAKE IS ABLE TO GET FREE OF THE HEADLOCK AS HE DROPS DOWN AND ROLLS UP VEENA AGAIN! SCHOOLBOY BY JAKE–
Eve: Veena rolled through before a count could start AND SHE GRABBED JAKE’S ARM AND VEENA NOW HAS AN ARMBAR APPLIED!!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake tried to steal the match and Veena has another submission applied. She wasn’t able to do much damage to Jake’s legs, so she is going to try again on the arms.
Eve: The submission is the center of the ring and this time Veena has Jake in a position where it’s going to be harder for him to make it into the ropes.
Deadprez: Veena really has a torque on Jake’s arm and Veena would love it if she could break her challenger’s arm. That would really take away a lot of Jake’s offense if that arm was eliminated.
Gavin Kirkland: LOOK AT WHAT’S GOING ON NOW!! CAROLINE IS ON THE APRON AGAIN! THE REFEREE IS SO FOCUSED ON THE SUBMISSION THAT THEY DON’T SEE CAROLINE ON THE APRON TAKING OFF THE TURNBUCKLE PADS!
Eve: Like the little gremlin sized witch that she is, Caroline has struck again without anybody noticing. Caroline and Jake have locked eyes and conveniently Jake is starting to fight back.
Deadprez: He has managed to get himself into a position where it looks like he is rolling up Veena, BUT JAKE LIFTS VEENA UP INTO THE AIR USING HIS FREE ARM TO HELP STEADY HER!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT AMAZING POWER BY THE CHALLENGER AS HE WALKS VEENA OVER TO THE CORNER WHERE THE COVER HAS BEEN REMOVED–
Deadprez: JAKE WITH A MODIFIED BUCKLE BOMB TO THE CHAMPION! HER HEAD CRACKED THE STEEL TURNBUCKLE! OH MY GAWD!! VEENA COMES STUMBLING OUT OF THE CORNER AS JAKE GRABS HER AND PLANTS HER WITH AN INVERTED DDT!
Eve: Jake doing more damage to the back of the Champion’s head before he pulls her back up and pulls her back. Is Jake looking for another Inverted DDT?
Gavin Kirkland: NO! HE ROLLS AND PLANTS VEENA WITH THE “PROPHETIC” CUTTER! THE CHAMPION SPIKED ON HER FACE AND SHE IS NOT MOVING! JAKE FEELS LIKE THIS WAS ENOUGH AS HE ROLLS HER OVER FOR THE COVER! THE ERA OF JAKE IS ABOUT TO BEGIN!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEE!
Eve: VEENA KICKS OUT AT TWO! THAT WAS A VERY CLOSE NEAR FALL FOR THE CHALLENGER! LESS THAN A SECOND AWAY FROM BECOMING THE NEW ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!
Deadprez: The crowd is absolutely going crazy for Veena and if you can hear the crowd, they are all chanting for Veena right now to get her back in this match.
Gavin Kirkland: On the other hand, Jake looks to be a little frustrated that the little stunt Caroline pulled didn’t help him win the match. He is pounding the mat in frustration. Stay calm. Veena might be beautiful, but look at your and your talent.
Eve: You are such a kiss ass, but what I was going to say is look at the back of Veena’s head. The blonde hair of the Champion is slowly turning crimson red where her skull cracked the turnbuckle.
Deadprez: There is even a small splotch of blood on the mat where Jake planted Veena. Jake is now looking to slow this match down as he applies a headlock to the grounded Answers World Champion.
Gavin Kirkland: I’m confused about something. There is one big bullseye that Veena has right now and Jake hasn’t gone after it? Why not? If I were Jake, that’s where I would be focusing all my attention on.
Deadprez: Thank the gawds you aren’t Jake Smith. But the headlock is locked in tight as Jake is trying to drain as much energy as he can from Veena in order to help his chances of winning this match.
Eve: But listen to the crowd clapping and chanting for Veena to help her get back into this match. Jake doesn’t like that too much as he glares at the crowd. I think he yelled at everybody to shut up.
Gavin Kirkland: I think the crowd support is working because look at Veena. Even though she has blood flowing from the back of her head, she is still finding a way to mount an offense and get back in this match–
Eve: JAKE HAS JUST TRANSITIONED THE HEADLOCK INTO A CROSSFACE! HE HAS THE ARM TRAPPED AND HE IS WRENCHING BACK ON VEENA’S NECK AND HEAD!! AN EVEN WORSE SUBMISSION AND THE REFEREE IS CHECKING ON VEENA!
Deadprez: The referee is asking Veena if she wants to give this match up and we could hear Veena say, and I quote, FUCK NO to the referee! She’d rather die than tap out to Jake Smith.
Gavin Kirkland: If she does die, she would still lose the title so that would be pointless for her to do.
Eve: It was a figure of speech, lamebrain!! But Veena is being torqued in a very horrible position and with the damage she has already taken to the head, the end might be closer than we think.
Deadprez: Jake is really wrenching back on Veena’s neck with that crossface submission. Her back is probably starting to feel it too… BUT IT MIGHT HAVE BACKFIRED ON JAKE AS HE LEANS TOO FAR BACK!!
Gavin Kirkland: THAT GAVE VEENA ENOUGH ROOM TO GET HER LEGS FREE AND COUNTER INTO A MODIFIED ROLL UP! VEENA BRIDGES UP AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEE!
Deadprez: JAKE KICKS OUT AT TWO AND HE IS FORCED TO RELEASE THE CROSSFACE IN ORDER TO SAVE THE MATCH FOR HIMSELF!! Both competitors are free and have had a lot taken out of them thus far as Jake is the first one to his feet.
Eve: He grabs Veena and drags her over to the ropes before putting her throat along the middle rope. NOW JAKE IS SHOVING HIS KNEE INTO THE BACK OF VEENA’S NECK AND CHOKING HER ON THE ROPES!
Gavin Kirkland: The referee starts a count and reaches four before Jake breaks the hold, BUT NOT FOR LONG AS HE GOES BACK AND DOES THE SAME THING AGAIN!
Eve: Once again Jake breaks on four as the referee pulls Jake and warns him that if he keeps pushing his luck, he’s going to get disqualified–
Deadprez: AND CAROLINE ONCE AGAIN APPEARS AND CRACKS VEENA IN THE FACE WITH A RIGHT HAND SENDING VEENA FALLING BACK!!
Gavin Kirkland: Look at the talent and skill of Jake Smith. Having extra resources to use to his advantage whenever he sees fit! What a great Answers World Champion he will make. But it will break my heart to see the lovely Veena lose.
Eve: HE’S CHEATING YOU ASSHOLE!! Of course you would condone that as Jake finally steps away from the referee after distracting them long enough for Jake to cheat.
Deadprez: Jake has Veena by the head and starts to pull her back to her feet, BUT VEENA HAD SOME ENERGY LEFT AS SHE DROPS DOWN AND COUNTERS WITH A MODIFIED JAWBREAKER!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake was staggered back for a moment but he goes back to Veena AND VEENA THROWS A LEFT HAND INTO THE RIBS BEFORE THROWING A RIGHT HAND!!
Deadprez: Repeated shots bought Veena enough time to get back to her feet AND SHE CATCHES JAKE WITH A FOREARM TO THE FACE! Jake tries to come back with a forearm of his own–
Eve: VEENA BLOCKS IT AND CATCHES JAKE WITH ANOTHER SHOT TO THE FACE! REPEATED FOREARMS HAVE JAKE DAZED AS VEENA GRABS JAKE BY THE HEAD–
Gavin Kirkland: VEENA RUNS AND PLANTS JAKE FACE FIRST WITH A BULLDOG! THIRD TIME IS THE CHARM FOR OUR BEAUTIFUL CHAMPION AS SHE FINALLY HITS THE BULLDOG!
Eve: Jake scrambles into the corner AND HERE COMES VEENA AS SHE LAUNCHES HERSELF TO THE CORNER AND HITS JAKE WITH A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT!!
Deadprez: Jake is on spaghetti legs until he falls back into the corner. Jake slides down until he is sitting on the mat and Veena has him right where wants him BEFORE RUNNING FULL SPEED–
Gavin Kirkland: THE BRONCO BUSTER!! “FORBIDDEN FRUITS” BY VEENA ADAMS! ALRIGHT I AM GIVING VEENA 20 MINUTES TO STOP THAT!! DAMN THIS REFEREE IS RUINING EVERYTHING!!
Eve: Veena stops the Bronco Buster long enough to finish the “Forbidden Fruits” combo WITH A STINKFACE!! JAKE IS DISGUSTED AND GAVIN IS ABOUT TO LOSE IT… THE SICKO!!
Deadprez: Veena is so proud of herself that she pats herself on the back and gloats to the crowd as they respond with very loud cheers because it adds a little insult to injury so to speak.
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t call it insult or injury. I call it absolutely wonderful. I think Jake needs a tag partner for this match.
Deadprez: I think you need to sit here and shut the fuck up about your perverted shit, dawg. Call the damn match before Eve hurts you.
Eve: Jake is still down and Veena is climbing up to the high rent district. The Champion is making her way to the top rope. She is looking for something big here.
Gavin Kirkland: Veena has her balance on the top rope as she watches Jake get back to his feet after he tasted the “Forbidden Fruits”… lucky guy.
Eve: You’ve been warned, Gavin!!
Deadprez: Jake is back to his feet AND VEENA LAUNCHES HERSELF OFF THE TOP ROPE AND HITS JAKE WITH ANOTHER SPEAR! THAT SPEAR LOOKED MORE LIKE A MISSILE!!
Gavin Kirkland: I was thinking she was going for her crossbody like she would normally do, but instead, she changed it up and hit a spear!! What force that spear had.
Eve: Jake was turned inside out after the spear. Jake looks to be out as Veena rolls him over for the cover! VEENA TO RETAIN HERE!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEE!
Deadprez: OH SON OF A BITCH!!
Gavin Kirkland: BAHAHAHAHAHA! THAT WAS SO SMART!!
Deadprez: CAROLINE AGAIN! AT THE LAST SECOND, CAROLINE WAS ABLE TO PUT JAKE’S FOOT ON THE BOTTOM ROPE AND THAT FORCES THE REFEREE TO STOP THE COUNT!! CAROLINE SAVED JAKE’S ASS AGAIN!
Eve: I don’t think that Veena even saw Caroline move Jake’s foot, so she is unfortunately none the wiser as she brings Jake to his feet and now has Jake in a gutwrench.
Gavin Kirkland: Veena is so beautiful and smart, but I don’t think this is a bright move trying to powerbomb him. That would do more damage to her.
Eve: Jake is 5 foot 9 and probably 180 pounds. I think Veena is fine.
Deadprez: That was a nice one, Eve. But Veena has Jake AS SHE LIFTS HIM UP IN THE AIR FOR A POWERBOMB–
(CRACK!)
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?
Eve: I DIDN’T SEE WHAT HAPPENED?
Deadprez: ALL I SAW WAS THAT VEENA WAS GOING FOR A POWERBOMB AND THEN SHE CRASHES ONTO THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: BAHAHAHAHAHA!! I SAW WHAT HAPPENED!!
Deadprez: What the fuck are you talking about, dawg?
Eve: I see it now. Look at the replay. Caroline struck again WITH A HAMMER TO THE ANKLE! THAT’S THE HAMMER USED TO RING THE BELL!
Gavin Kirkland: THIS IS WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT EARLIER! I WAS WAITING FOR THE ANKLE TO COME INTO PLAY AND IT DID!!
Eve: ANOTHER CHEAP TRICK BY CAROLINE AS VEENA IS HOLDING HER ANKLE IN PAIN!!
Deadprez: That gives Jake a golden opportunity to take advantage of the situation as Veena is holding that ankle that kept her out of action for months!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake just pulls Veena away from the ropes enough to stack her up and go for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
Eve: THAT ASSHOLE IS AT IT AGAIN! JAKE HAS HIS FEET ON THE ROPES AND THE REFEREE DOESN’T SEE IT! OH COME ON!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEEE!
Deadprez: THE REFEREE LOOKED UP AND SAW JAKE’S FEET ON THE ROPES AND THEY HAVE STOPPED THE COUNT!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake realized the referee has stopped and he is yelling at the referee and telling them to count.
Deadprez: Jake can throw a tantrum all he wants, but the referee is not going to count–
Eve: THE REFEREE JUST KICKED JAKE’S FEET OFF THE ROPES AND JAKE LOOKS PISSED!!
Gavin Kirkland: Now Jake is back on his feet and he grabs Veena’s leg and pulls her back to the middle of the ring AND APPLIES A CLOVERLEAF SUBMISSION!!
Eve: LOOK AT THE HORRIBLE ANGLE JAKE HAS VEENA’S ANKLE IN THAT SUBMISSION! AFTER THAT PIPE SHOT FROM CAROLINE EARLIER HAS GOT TO HAVE THE ANKLE IN REAL PAIN!
Deadprez: THE REFEREE IS RIGHT THERE TO SEE IF VEENA WANTS TO GIVE IT UP! IF SHE SUBMITS, JAKE IS THE NEW CHAMPION! BUT VEENA IS REFUSING TO GIVE UP!
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t blame her, but if she stays in that submission too long, she could injure her ankle again and be forced out of action again.
Eve: VEENA IS TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO GET FREE OF THE CLOVERLEAF! THE LONGER SHE IS IN THE SUBMISSION, THE WORSE HER ANKLE IS GOING TO GET!
Deadprez: Veena is trying to drag herself to the ropes, but as she starts to get some momentum, JAKE DRAGS HER BACK TO CENTER OF THE RING AND PUTS EVEN MORE PRESSURE ON VEENA’S ANKLE!
Gavin Kirkland: If anybody doubted how tough Veena was before this match should eat their words now because weaker competitors would have tapped out by now—
Deadprez: VEENA WENT FOR BROKE AND ROLLED FORWARD TO TRY AND GET FREE AND IT WORKED AS SHE SENDS JAKE SAILING TOWARDS THE ROPES!
Eve: Jake rebounds off the ropes as Veena backs away as fast as she can to try and create distance and catch a breather, but Jake is relentless right now as he pulls Veena back to the center of the ring–
Gavin Kirkland: ANKLE LOCK!! ANKLE LOCK BY JAKE! NOT ONE OF JAKE’S REGULAR MOVES BUT YOU DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO IN ORDER TO WIN! HE WANTS TO BREAK VEENA’S ANKLE AGAIN–
Eve: BUT VEENA JUMPS UP AND WRAPS HER LEGS AROUND JAKE’S WAIST BEFORE ROLLING FORWARD AND ROLLING JAKE UP! VICTORY ROLL TO STEAL IT!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEE!
Deadprez: JAKE KICKS OUT AT TWO AND THAT FORCES JAKE TO LET THE ANKLE LOCK GO! VEENA NEEDS TO CAPITALIZE IF SHE CAN!
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t know if she can, Prezzy. She is holding her ankle in pain as Jake is back on his feet and starts to pull Veena back to her feet BUT VEENA STILL HAS SOME FIGHT!
Eve: VEENA THROWING ELBOW AFTER ELBOW INTO THE MIDSECTION UNTIL JAKE THROWS AN ELBOW OF HIS OWN INTO HER FACE!
Deadprez: That stops Veena as Jake drags Veena to the ropes and WRAPS HER ANKLE AROUND THE BOTTOM ROPE AND STARTS TORTURING THE ANKLE AGAIN AS THE REFEREE TELLS JAKE TO GET HER OUT OF THE ROPES!
Gavin Kirkland: The referee reaches four and Jake pulls Veena out of the ropes and brings her back to her feet. Jake tries to whip Veena to the rope, BUT THAT ANKLE JUST BUCKLED AND SHE FALLS TO HER KNEES!
Deadprez: Veena is no doubt in pain as she tries to get back to her feet AND JAKE WITH A SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!! WHAT A SHOT!!
Eve: Jake doesn’t try to whip Veena again. Instead he drags Veena over to the corner as he gets himself on the second rope. Jake has Veena in position–
Gavin Kirkland: JAKE JUMPS OFF THE SECOND ROPE AND HITS THE “HELL ABOVE”! FLIP PILEDRIVER SPIKES VEENA ON HER HEAD AS HE ROLLS HER OVER FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEE!
Eve: SHE GOT THE SHOULDER UP!! VEENA GOT THE SHOULDER UP JUST ENOUGH FOR THE REFEREE TO STOP THE COUNT!!
Deadprez: JAKE WAS JUST ABOUT TO CELEBRATE HIS TITLE VICTORY BUT THE REFEREE IS TRYING TO TELL JAKE THAT HE DIDN’T WIN!! IT WAS ONLY A TWO COUNT!
Gavin Kirkland: Are you sure that it wasn’t a three count. I think that the referee is just being generous because the beautiful Veena is hurt.
Eve: Jake is finally back in this world as he fully comprehends that he isn’t the champion yet and HE IS ARGUING WITH THE REFEREE! JAKE LOOKS LIKE WANTS TO PUNCH OUT THE REFEREE!
Deadprez: He can whine and complain all he wants, he hasn’t won the match yet!! Jake is angry as he looks over at Veena, who has just started moving after that piledriver. Jake walks over to the corner and pulls down his knee pad.
Gavin Kirkland: Jake only goes for one move in this situation. Jake is done playing around. He is going for the win here and now AS HE RUNS FULL SPEED TOWARDS VEENA!
Deadprez: JAKE IS LOOKING FOR THE “GOD COMPLEX”, BUT VEENA SIMPLY FALLS OUT OF THE WAY AND JAKE RUNS CHEST FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLE! Jake stumbles back out of the corner–
Eve: VEENA DRAGS HERSELF OVER TO JAKE AND PULLS HIM DOWN TO ROLL HIM UP! SCHOOLBOY ROLLUP COULD STEAL IT HERE!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEE!
Gavin Kirkland: HER ANKLE BUCKLED! SHE COULDN’T KEEP THE ROLLUP AND JAKE WAS ABLE TO KICK OUT AT TWO! Jake is able to get back to his feet first as he hits the ropes.
Eve: Jake with the rebound AS HE DELIVERS A BIG BOOT TO VEENA’S HEAD TAKING HER BACK DOWN TO THE MAT!! Veena is barely moving as Jake decides to leave his ground attack and go up to the top rope.
Deadprez: Veena is using the ropes to try and get back to her feet as the referee is there to check on Veena to see if she wants to continue. Veena does want to continue as she is up AND JAKE JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE–
Gavin Kirkland: JAKE GOES FOR A CROSSBODY AND VEENA GETS OUT OF THE WAY! OH NO!! JAKE CAUGHT THE REFEREE AND THE REFEREE IS DOWN!!
Eve: That isn’t good, but I don’t think Jake cares as he grabs Veena and brings her back to her feet before lifting her up in the air AND DROPPING HER ON HER HEAD WITH A BRAINBUSTER!
Deadprez: Veena could be out AS JAKE YELLS FOR CAROLINE TO GET ON THE APRON! OF COURSE HE WOULD USE DIRTY TRICKS WHEN THE REFEREE IS OUT COLD
Gavin Kirkland: Caroline is on the apron as Jake pulls Veena back to her feet. Jake has Veena in a Full Nelson as he gets Veena in position as Jake tells her to do it.
Deadprez: Veena has a devious look in her eyes AS SHE FIRES OFF THE MIST! NO! NOT THAT!
Eve: BUT VEENA IS ABLE TO GET FREE AND AVOID THE MIST BUT JAKE DID NOT!! CAROLINE CAUGHT HER MAN WITH THE MIST AND NOW JAKE HAS BEEN BLINDED! THAT TRICK BACKFIRED HORRIBLY!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!
Eve: Veena is able to get back to her feet as she SHOVE JAKE TO THE ROPES! JAKE CRASHES INTO CAROLINE AND CAROLINE GOES FLYING OFF THE APRON AND CRASHES ONTO THE FLOOR!
Deadprez: JAKE STILL CAN’T SEE THANKS TO THE MIST AS VEENA IS HOBBLING ON THAT ANKLE AS SHE GRABS JAKE BY THE HEAD AND HITS “A DARK TURN”!
Gavin Kirkland: The headlock elbow drop sends Jake face first into the mat and Veena is using all of her remaining strength to pull Jake over to the corner. Now Veena is gingerly climbing her way up to the top rope!
Eve: That ankle is hurting badly. She shouldn’t be climbing up to the top rope, but Veena wants to end this match once and for all. Veena has her balance on the top rope BEFORE SHE FLIPS BACK–
Deadprez: “FATAL VOW”! EVEN WITH THAT INJURED ANKLE SHE HIT THE MOONSAULT DOUBLE STOMP! SHE GOT ALL OF IT POSSIBLY AT THE PRICE OF HER ANKLE AS SHE CAN’T HOLD IT ANYMORE! THE REFEREE IS BACK UP AS VEENA FALLS INTO THE COVER AND HOOKS THE LEG!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“7 Rings starts playing again as Veena slowly rolls off of Jake and sits on the mat to compose herself as well as catch her breath. The crowd is cheering loudly for Veena as Gina Romano announces the final decision of the match.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! The winner of this contest….
Gina Romano: …and STILL THE ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! VEEEEEEEEEEENA ADDDDDDDDDDDDAMMMMMS!
Deadprez: What a match! What a way to kick off Territorial Invasion weekend with a hotly contested Answers World Championship match between two very talented competitors. We weren’t sure if Veena was gonna be able to continue the match, but she showed that she could fight through the pain and win the match.
Gavin Kirkland: Don’t get me wrong. I’m happy that the beautiful Veena won. Call me! But I was so excited to see Jake return to the top of the mountain as World Champion again.
(Veena has made it back to her feet as she gingerly walks over to the referee who hands her the Answers World Championship before raising her hand in victory. Veena celebrates in the ring for a moment as Caroline starts to recover outside the ring as Veena limps her way out of the ring and up the entrance ramp.)
Eve: Well he got really close to winning the title thanks to dirty tricks and help from Caroline, but Veena was able to persevere and win this match. Injured ankle and all.
Gavin Kirkland: True. Jake was gonna be champion or Veena was gonna get her payback. Veena didn’t get mad, she got even.
Deadprez: Jake tried to pull every trick he could think of, but it just wasn’t enough. He was close, but this match belongs to Veena as she retains the Answers World Championship here at Territorial Invasion.
(The final shot shows Veena standing at the top of the entrance ramp raising her title for the cheering crowd to see before cutting back to the ring where Caroline has rolled into the ring as Jake starts to slowly sit up. Both Jake and Caroline look pissed off as the camera cuts elsewhere….)

(The camera cuts to Bella Braxton in the ring.)
Bella Braxton: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A TRIPLE THREAT MATCH SCHEDULED FOR… ONE FALL!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
Bella Braxton: AND IS FOR THE EAW NEW BREED CHAMPIONSHIP!
(‘RUNITUP’ by Tyler, The Creator ft. Teezo Touchdown plays to a negative reaction from fans as Cosmo Goldworthy makes his way down onto the stage area, oozing confidence ahead of his match. He appears to be hyped up while heading to the ring, disregarding however the fans may feel about him, because he understands the huge opportunity this is.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first! Hailing from The Golden State, weighing in at 220 pounds…HE IS COSMO “MONEY MO” GOLDWORTHY!!
Rich Russillo: Cosmo Goldworthy has a huge opportunity ahead of him to earn his first Championship in Elite Answers Wrestling!
Thadd Blazevich: Oh God, imagine what that’d do to the dude’s ego.
Rich Russillo: It’s already massive as it is.
Thadd Blazevich: Pause, bro.
Rich Russillo: :francis: Anyways, we’ve already heard just how Cosmo feels about this match, and he’s walking into this with a win over the Champion. This very well could be his night.
(‘Dynasty’ by Rina Sawayama plays next, and Candice Blair walks out with fans in attendance behind her as she strikes a pose on the stage area, soaking in the applause. Blair blows kisses to fans in the arena while strutting down the ramp, but turns serious as she reaches the end of the ramp, staring daggers at Cosmo in the ring.)
Bella Braxton: On her way to the ring… Residing out of Malibu, California, weighing in at 130 pounds…SHE IS PRINCESS CANDICE BLAIR!
Rich Russillo: Cosmo isn’t the only one with an opportunity to win his first Championship, tonight could easily be Candice’s time to shine.
Persephone: And how many times have we said that?
Thadd Blazevich: I don’t know, bro, going off the look in her eyes, Candice is determined right now.
Rich Russillo: She’s been denied the chance to hold a Championship for so long, Candice’s hunger has to be at an all time high.
(‘Juno’ by Sabrina Carpenter hits to a negative reaction from fans, and Ashlynn Quinn struts onto the stage with the New Breed Championship over her shoulder. Quinn looks down at the Championship, perhaps for the last time, before raising it high on the stage to pyro.)
Bella Braxton: Hailing out of Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 115 pounds…SHE IS THE EAW NEW BREED CHAMPION… MISS VOLTAGE HERSELF…ASHLYNN QUINN!!
Rich Russillo: Notice the look Ashlynn gave her Championship, knowing it could be the last time she holds it. This is her second ever Championship defense in EAW, and first at a marquee event. I’m sure this means a lot to her.
Thadd Blazevich: In a triple threat match, the Champion doesn’t have to be pinned, and that’s gotta be what’s got Quinn so worried.
Persephone: Normally, I’d relish Ashlynn Quinn losing her Championship, but when the options are “Cosmo Goldworthy” and “Candice Blair,” it’s not like we’re escaping hell.
(The referee signals for the bell as each competitor stands in their respective corners.)
( DING! DING! DING! )
Rich Russillo: The match kicks off here tonight at Territorial Invasion as Ashlynn is looking to retain her New Breed title as–
Rich Russillo: ???
Thadd Blazevich: Ashlynn just rolled out the ring? What the hell is this nonsense bro? Ashlynn is pacing on the outside as Candice and Cosmo are looking on!
Persephone: Maybe she hasn’t gotten warmed up, maybe she needs to do some squats or something! Work those glutes Ashlynn!
Rich Russillo: Well I think Ashlynn is going to let her challengers square off here and–
Thadd Blazevich: NO WAY BRO! COSMO SAID FRICK THAT AND NAILED A SPRINGBOARD SOMERSAULT SENTON TO THE OUTSIDE TAKING OUT ASHLYNN QUINN!!! COSMO IS FIRED UP IN THE EARLY GOINGS OF THIS MATCH!!! THE STATE’S CAPITAL IS GOING NUTS BRO!!
Persephone: Wait a minute… Did you say “frick”?
Rich Russillo: Nevermind that! Candice Blair is on the apron and SHE LANDS A METEORA TO THE OUTSIDE TO COSMO GOLDWORTHY! WE HAVE ALREADY TAKEN FLIGHT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN AND IT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING STAGES OF THIS MATCH!!
Thadd Blazevich: Candice takes Cosmo and grabs him by his hair and throws him back into the ring before following behind! Candice gets Cosmo back to his feet and nails him with a Snap Suplex bro! She goes for the cover on him!!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!
Persephone: Cosmo gets the shoulder up, but Candice isn’t too surprised by that as she goes to the top rope. She might bonk her head or something looking to hit something here.
Rich Russillo: Not quite Persephone, AS ASHLYNN PULLS CANDICE’S LEG OUT FROM UNDER HER! CANDICE WAS JUST DROPPED ONTO THE TOP ROPE, AND NOW SHE’S TRAPPED THERE AS ASHLYNN BEGINS TO CLIMB! Ashlynn has something in mind here–
Thadd Blazevich: AND I THINK I KNOW WHAT IT WAS!!! ASHLYNN JUMPS UP, AND IT WAS A TOP ROPE HURRICANRANA–
Persephone: WHAT??
Rich Russillo: NO WAY THAT JUST HAPPENED! COSMO CATCHES CANDICE AND DELIVERS A POWERBOMB STRAIGHT TO HER!!! I DON’T THINK ASHLYNN KNOWS COSMO IS BACK UP ON HIS FEET, AND COSMO TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THIS AS GRABS ASHLYNN BY HER WAIST!
Thadd Blazevich: GERMAN SUPLEX! ASHLYNN GOES FLYING AS COSMO HOOKS THE LEG AND GOES FOR THE WIN!!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOO!
Persephone: Ashlynn kicks out here, damn I really thought that was it.
Thadd Blazevich: You must be dreaming then broski!
Persephone; Do NOT call me your broski you fucking weirdo.
Thadd Blazevich: I’ll keep that noted bro-meister.
Rich Russillo: Anyways… Cosmo doesn’t seem too worried there as he goes to the ground and is now applying a surfboard stretch! He’s cracking the back of our New Breed Champion, and possibly of her tap out here.
Persephone: I’m pretty sure Kai Rabeaux would have loved to be doing this too if it weren’t for cock blocker Drake Armstrong.
Thadd Blazevich: My dude Money Mo has Ashlynn trapped with that surfboard stretch, and Ashlynn has nowhere she can go as–
Thadd Blazevich: WAIT, HOLD ON DUDES! CANDICE BLAIR! SHE COMES IN WITH A RUNNING SENTON AND BREAKS THE HOLD AND IT HURTS COSMO IN THE PROCESS! COSMO IS STILL ON HIS KNEES BUT IS MET WITH A YAKUZA KICK FROM CANDICE BLAIR!! IT HIT RIGHT INTO COSMO’S JAW AS CANDICE IS DONE HERE AS SHE BRINGS COSMO BACK UP TO HIS FEET AND–
Persephone: EXPLODER SUPLEX! IT CONNECTS TO COSMO AS CANDICE GOES FOR THE WIN!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOO!
Rich Russillo: COSMO GETS HIS SHOULDERS UP! Not enough to put Money Mo down as Candice Blair is right back with some of her unique offence as she’s grabbing a hold of Cosmo’s right arm and– YES! She’s doing some joint manipulation, as if she’s trying to pull the shoulder blade off of Cosmo’s arm!
Thadd Blazevich: Indeed bro! We saw Candice take advantage of the joint manipulation when she was battling Cosmo all those weeks ago as– CANDICE BRO HAS COSMO INTO A CROSS FACE! SHE TRANSITIONS WORKING THE RIGHT ARM INTO A CROSSFACE SUBMISSION! LOOKING TO MAKE COSMO TAP OUT HERE!!!
Persephone: Wait just a moment you moron! Ashlynn is right back into this match as she swoops right into Candice and as her shoulders to the ground!! SHE’S GOING TO STEAL THIS MATCH AS THE REFEREE MAKES THE COUNT!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOO!
Rich Russillo: Not Enough! Candice got her shoulder as she got right back to her feet and so did Ashlynn! Candice goes right to a chop at Ashlynn and– NO ASHLYNN DODGES IT!! SHE DODGES THE CHOP AS SHE GOES FOR A STEP-UP ENZIGURI!
Thadd Blazevich: NO! CANDICE SEES IT COMING AS SHE GRABS A HOLD OF ASHLYNN’S LEFT LEG AND HAS HER IN ANKLE LOCK?? CANDICE BROS BUSTING OUT SOME UNIQUE OFFENCE AS SHE HAS ASHLYNN TRAPPED INTO AN ANKLE SUBMISSION!!
Persephone: Nope! Candice doesn’t have it for long as Ashlynn manages to turn her body weight around and push Candice off her! Candice rolls back as she goes towards Ashlynn and—
Rich Russillo: DIVING SHOULDER TACKLE!! COSMO JUST DELIVERED THAT HUGE MOVE TO CANDICE AS HE IS BACK INTO THIS MATCH!! ASHLYNN GOES RIGHT AT COSMO WITH A SPINNING BACK ELBOW AND–
Thadd Blazevich: COSMO BLOCKS IT!! COSMO BRO NOW HAS ASHLYNN AND– NAILS HER WITH A BACK SUPLEX ONTO CANDICE BLAIR WHO IS ON THE GROUND!!! ASHLYNN BRO AND CANDICE BRAH GO RIGHT INTO EACH OTHER AS COSMO HOOKS THE LEG OF ASHLYNN!!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOO!
Persephone: Cosmo really thought he had that shit!
Rich Russillo: Ashlynn got her shoulders up as that was an insane sequence between all three competitors just now! All three are so determined to become New Breed Champion here tonight, all motivated to get it done in the bright lights here at Nationals Park in our State Capitol.
Thadd Blazevich: Cosmo is looking at the top rope as he’s looking to go airborne and go high in the sky my dudes! Cosmo looks down at Ashlynn Quinn and GOES FOR A DIVING HEADBUTT!!!
Persephone: BUT ASHLYNN MOVES OUT THE WAY! COSMO GOES CRASHING IN FACE FIRST ON THAT MATT!!! HIS HEAD PROB ON THE CTE AS OUR PRESIDENT OF THIS COUNTRY!
Rich Russillo: Ashlynn sees this and takes advantage as she brings Cosmo back to his feet and lifts him and–
Thadd Blazevich: BRAINBUSTER! ASHLYNN DELIVERS A BRAINBUSTER TO COSMO’S HEAD AS HE GOES PLANTING DOWN TO THE GROUND! I DON’T CARE WHO YOU ARE THAT IS PUTTING YOU DOWN!! ASHLYNN IS LOOKING TO MAKE THE COVER!
Persephone: BUT THERE’S A RUNNING UPPERCUT! CANDICE DELIVERS AN UPPERCUT STRAIGHT TO ASHLYNN AS THE NEW BREED CHAMPION BOUNCES OFF THE ROPES AND BACK AS CANDICE GRABS A HOLD OF HER AND–
Rich Russillo: SAITO SUPLEX CONNECTS!! IS THIS OVER??? CANDICE BLAIR MAKES THE COVER!!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOO!
Thadd Blazevich: ASHLYNN BRAH GETS HER SHOULDERS UP! SHE QUICKLY ROLLS OUT THE RING AS CANDICE LOOKS FRUSTRATED THAT THAT WASN’T ENOUGH FOR HER TO BECOME NEW BREED CHAMPION HERE TONIGHT!
Persephone: Duh obviously.
Rich Russillo: Candice doesn’t waste anymore time though as she rolls out of the ring and follows Ashlynn who makes her way over to one of the corner barricades! Candice pursuits her as she nails a vicious elbow right to Ashlynn’s back! Candice turns Ashlynn around and delivers a forearm strike but Ashlynn delivers some of her own! Delivering some offense towards each and–
Thadd Blazevich: MONEY MO JUST CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND CLOTHESLINED BOTH OF THESE LADIES OVER THE BARRICADE! COSMO HOPS THE BARRICADE AS WE NOW HAVE TAKEN THIS THREE WAY MATCH INTO THE CROWD!
Persephone: Maybe some blood can occur fighting amongst some geeks!
Rich Russillo: Cosmo, Ashlynn and Candice are trading punching blows to one another, as COSMO JUST TOOK A FAN’S FOAM FINGER AND NAILED IT STRAIGHT INTO ASHLYNN’S HEAD! CANDICE THEN TOOK SOMEONE’S CRUTCHES AND NAILS IT IN THE MIDSECTION OF COSMO BEFORE GIVING THE CRUTCH BACK TO THAT FAN!
Thadd Blazevich: BROS AND DUDES HAVE MADE TO THE STAIRS WHERE THEIR FIGHTING CONTINUES! MORE STRIKES AND PUNCHES BEING THROWN AS THEY ARE KICKING AND PUNCHING ONE ANOTHER CLIMBING UP THOSE STEPS!!
Persephone: THEY MADE I ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP OF THE STAIRS AND NOW ARE MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE CONCESSION STANDS!!! THE EAW AUDIENCE ARE GATHERING AROUND AS THE ELITISTS ARE BRAWLING AMONGST THEM!!
Rich Russillo: CANDICE BLAIR GRABS A HOLD OF SOMEONE’S HOTDOG AND IS EATING IT!!
Thadd Blazevich: I guess she got hungry in this match, I guess today was her cheat day—
Persephone: NO IDIOT! CANDICE JUST SPAT THE HOTDOG TOWARDS ASHLYNN WHO LOOKS DISGUSTED!! CANDICE GRABS A HOLD OF SOMEONE’S SODA AND SPILLS IT ALL OVER ASHLYNN AS SHE GOES DOWN!!
Rich Russillo: BUT LOOK! COSMO RUNS TOWARDS CANDICE AND SLAMS RIGHT INTO THE CONCESSION TABLE WHERE ALL THE MERCH IS LOCATED!
Thadd Blazevich: I wonder if they selling any Thadd shirts over there.
Persephone: Who would even buy those?
Rich Russillo: COSMO SPOTS A LADDER THAT WAS NEARBY THAT WAS BEING USED FOR RENOVATION AND HES STARTING TO CLIMB IT! HE’S ON TOP OF THAT LADDER AND—
Thadd Blazevich: FROG SPLASH! NAILS IT RIGHT ONTO AS ALL THE BROSKIS WATCHING NEARBY ARE LOSING THEIR MARBLES!! THIS MATCH HAS BEEN TAKEN TO ALL OTHER LEVEL!!
Persephone: LOOK IDIOT! ASHLYNN QUINN HAS EMERGED BACK AFTER BEING SOAKED IN HOT DOG BITS AND SODA AS SHE TOOK SOMEONES PEN AND IS JAMMING IT RIGHT INTO CANDICE’S FACE!!! CANDICE IS ALREADY DOWN AND OUT ALONG WITH COSMO AS BLOOD IS DRIPPING DOWN FROM HER FOREHEAD!!
Rich Russillo: Ashlynn looks distraught and angry over what Candice had done to her earlier as she grabs Candice by the hair and is– Taking her to the bar area!! Ashlynn is jamming Candice’s head on that Bar Table repeatedly!!! Ashlynn is trying to ask for a beer can from the bartender!!
Thadd Blazevich: I wouldn’t have thought Ashlynn to be a beer drinker, I thought she was more tequila or margaret type dudette.
Persephone: Ashlynn takes the beer can and opens it… drinking on the job so unprofessional—
Rich Russillo: NO, SHE’S POURING BEER ON THE OPEN WOUND OF CANDICE BLAIR!!! THE ALCOHOL INTO MIXED IN IS BURNING CANDICE BLAIR IN THAT AREA!!! THE CROWD AROUND THEM IS IN SHOCK!!!
Thadd Blazevich: CANDICE IS FEELING THOSE BURNS AS ASHLYNN BRO GETS SOME REVENGE ON CANDICE FOR WHAT SHE DID BEFORE AND KEEP IN MIND CANDICE IS SOBER!! SHE’S BEEN SOBER FOR OVER A DECADE NOW SO THIS IS JUST PUTS FURTHER INSULT TO INJURY!!
Persephone: NOW LOOK IDIOTS! COSMO IS BACK UP AND NAILS A SUPERKICK TO ASHLYNN’S FACE!!! THAT HAS HER STUNNED AS—-
Rich Russillo: COSMO IS TAKING ASHLYNN TO THE MENS RESTROOM!!!
Thadd Blazevich: COSMO THROWS ASHLYN INTO THE DOOR AND INTO THE RESTROOM AS WE SEE SOME BRO WASHING HIS HANDS!
Persephone: HE LEAVES, AS WELL AS SOME FAT GUY WHO IS RUNNING OUT THE STALL!! HA, didn’t know Thadd could be in two places at once.
Thadd Blazevich: Hahahaha, very funny broski.
Rich Russillo: Ashlynn seems like she’s in disgust being in the men’s restroom as Cosmo grabs Ashlynn and throws against the wall of a stall! Ashlynn goes shoulder first as Cosmo is dragging her to the urinal!!
Thadd Blazevich: COSMO IS GOING TO SHOVE ASHLYNN’S FACE INTO THAT URINAL!! ASHLYNN MIGHT JUST FORFEIT THIS MATCH IF SHE TOUCHES THAT!
Persephone: HAHAHAHAHA! PLEASE COSMO DO IT!!!
Rich Russillo: BUT WAIT! ASHLYNN FIGHTS IT OFF!!! AS—
Thadd Blazevich: ASHLYNN SHOVES COSMO INTO THAT URINAL!! HE GOES FACE FIRST AS ASHLYNN STEPS BACK AND—

Persephone: CANDICE LOOKS INSANE RIGHT NOW! AS SHE BRINGS ASHLYNN BACK TO HER FEET AND SHOVES HER OUT OF THE REST ROOM! THANKLY THOSE FANS OF TERRY CHAMBERS CAN USE THE RESTROOM AGAIN!
Rich Russillo: CANDICE AND ASHLYNN HAVE MADE THEIR WAY BACK INTO CROWD IN THE ARENA AS THEY CONTINUE TO EXCHANGE FOREARMS TO EACH OTHER DOWN THE STAIRS!! FISTS AND PUNCHES BEING THROWN THEIR WAY AS THEY STOP AT ONE SECTION OF THE STAIRS WITH A FLAT AREA! THEY CONTINUE TO FIGHT AND–
Thadd Blazevich: HOLY HELL BROS!!
Persephone: COSMO COME OUT OF NOWHERE AND LANDED A TOP CON HILO TO BOTH LADIES ONTO THE STAIRS!! A ROUGH LANDING FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED AS THE CROWD IS GOING BALLISTIC!!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
(The feed shows a replay of the spot once more as we see Ashlynn and Candice both landing on the stairs right on their back as Cosmo was, somehow, able to have a slightly smoother landing. It cuts back all three competitors making their way down, still continuing the brawl in this match.)
Rich Russillo: All three competitors have made it down the stairs and back to the ground floor as they are still throwing punches and kicks towards each other inching closer and closer to the barricade and back to us at ringside. Candice lands some vicious shots to Cosmo’s chest as Cosmo delivers one of his own, as they fight behind the barricade and–
Thadd Blazevich: WOAH DUDE! ASHLYNN JUST DELIVERED A LOU THESZ PRESS SENDING HERSELF AND CANDICE OVER THE BARRICADE!! COSMO QUICKLY JUMPS IN AND GRABS A HOLD OF ASHLYNN AND WHIPS HER BACK INTO THE RING!!!
Persephone: Ashlynn is still on her as Cosmo is heading to the top rope! Cosmo is looking to go for something as he’s going for top rope crossbody and–
Rich Russillo: SUPERKICK! ASHLYNN QUINN DELIVERS WITH A MEAN LOOKING SUPERKICK TO COSMO GOLDWORTHY!!! ASHLYNN NOW GOES TO THE TOP ROPE AND— DELIVERS A MOONSAULT!!! IT CONNECTS TO COSMO AS SHE GOES FOR THE COVER!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEE!

Persephone: She’s going to be the feeling the bubbleguts with that one I fear.
Rich Russillo: Cosmo looks at an opening in the ring as she slides back into the Baseball waiting for Ashlynn Quinn to get back on her feet! Cosmo is waiting in that corner as Ashlynn is right up, turns around as Cosmo swing at her—
Thadd Blazevich: HE MISSED!! ASHLYNN DUCKS THE ATTEMPT AS HE RUNS THE ROPES AS COSMO TURNS AROUND–

Both ladies look torn up as Candice goes right into a forearm right into Ashlynn’s head! Ashlynn is dazed momentarily as she hits Candice right with a headbutt!!

Persephone: WAIT, ASHLYNN JUST COLLAPSED BACK TO THE MAT?? The referee is now checking on Ashlynn Quinn as… ASHLYNN IS SEETHING IN PAIN FROM HER LEFT LEG!!! THAT LEFT LEG WAS HEAVILY DAMAGED THROUGHOUT THIS ENTIRE MATCH WITH THAT ANKLE LOCK AND THAT DRAGON SCREW! Ashlynn is seething in pain right now from her left leg being potentially injured!
(Candice looks very annoyed as she’s trying to win this match, but the referee is examining Ashlynn Quinn and is even asking for medical to come out quickly. Both unsure of what this means for the match and annoyed at the interruption, Candice storms over to Ashlynn and the referee…)
Rich Russillo: WAIT A MINUTE!! ASHLYNN HAS ROLLED UP INTO A SMALL PACKAGE PIN!!! SHE WAS FAKING!!! THE REFEREE IS MAKING THE COUNT!!!!

( DING! DING! DING! )
Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER… AND STILL THE EAW NEW BREED CHAMPION… ASHLYNN QUINN!!!
(‘Juno’ by Sabrina Carpenter begins to blast the P.A System here at Nationals Park as Ashlynn Quinn retains her championship here tonight at Territorial Invasion. Ashlynn quickly rolls out the ring as the shock from the loss settles in from both Candice and Cosmo!! The referee quickly handed Ashlynn her title as she’s already made her way up the ramp! )
Thadd Blazevich: ASHLYNN BROSKI IS ONE DIRTY PLAYER!! Faking an injury in order to strike and gain the pinfall win over Candice Blair and Cosmo Goldworthy was just a second away from breaking it up but unfortunately broski was too damn late. Regardless of that… that was a great match to say the least even with how Ashlynn won… I know other brodies would think that was smart so I don’t know man.
Rich Russillo: It was a great match indeed Thadd, a brawl that went everywhere in the arena and despite what you might feel, Ashlynn Quinn survived this 3 way match and still remains our EAW New Breed Champion. Great efforts from Candice and Cosmo here tonight but Congrats to Ashlynn Quinn!
Persephone: FINALLY, IT’S OVER!!
(The camera pans over to see a frustrated Candice Blair and Cosmo Goldworthy in their respective corners in the walk as the last shot sees Ashlynn Quinn celebrating her victory, barely holding on to her New Breed Championship as we fade away here at Territorial Invasion.)
(Territorial Invasion returns as the next match graphic is seen flashing across the screen, causing an eruption from the crowd in response.)
(https://i.imgur.com/rmoeqGP.png)
(The camera then goes over to show Stephie Love standing at the center of the ring with a microphone and a smile on her face. After a moment, she then begins to speak.)
Stephie Love: The following SINGLES MATCH is scheduled for…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(‘Dragonborn’ by Jeremy Soule begins to play through the speakers of the arena as the crowd cheers loudly. The camera goes over to the stage as it focuses on Brian Daniels, who makes his way out with his arms spread and a smile on his face. He takes a moment to embrace the atmosphere, taking a deep breath and nodding his head, and before long he raises his arms back up again, heading down the ramp and toward the ring.)
Stephie Love: Introducing first… from New York City… weighing in at 195 pounds… BRIAN DANIELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: Brian Daniels certainly started this season off on a high note, coming out the victor of a Loser Leaves EAW match against Charlie Marr at Reckless Wiring, and certainly looking to keep that momentum going.
Flannery McCoy: Even though a returning face has arrived, looking to stop that dead in his tracks, Daniels is out for blood. He’s looking to prove that the Hall of Fame caliber Elitist that he’s always been known for is still within him, even now, and winning this match would be one step closer to solidifying it. I guess we’re just going to have to see.
Jake Mercer: Oh man, I just can’t wait! Brian Daniels is a man with a whole lot of DAWG! He’s willing to fight his heart out no matter how tall the challenge is, and that is something that I’m certainly going to be looking forward to tonight! This man ain’t one to mess with!
(‘Faneto’ by Chief Keef begins to follow up as it blares through the speakers to a thunderous eruption. The camera then goes over to show SOSA Henderson as he saunters out from the backstage area with a determined expression on his face. He keeps a stern look at Brian Daniels inside the ring, not breaking his glare even for a second, as he then begins to make his way down the ramp and toward the ring.)
Stephie Love: And his opponent… Philadelphia, Pennsylvania… weighing in at 191 pounds… ‘BULLETPROOF’… SOSA HENDERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: SOSA Henderson hasn’t competed in an EAW ring since Pain For Pride, but now that he’s back here on the Dynasty brand, he looks to pick up where he left off and show the world that he still has a lot more to offer. He’s looking to use Brian as his example.
Flannery McCoy: SOSA is not only doing that, but looking to bring the very best out of his opponent here tonight, knowing that it’s in there somewhere, but just not realized yet. If he manages to beat Brian Daniels here tonight, that’s a hell of a feather to add to his cap, and I’m certain that he’s banking on that being the case.
Jake Mercer: And I’m sure Heart Break Boy would be proud of this man! SOSA Henderson in the flesh here tonight in big 2025, who would’ve thought?! Who knows, maybe if he beats Brian here tonight and keeps up the momentum, we might be seeing the next World Heavyweight Champion in our future, but what do I know???
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stew-O: And here we go, this highly anticipated match is officially underway! SOSA Henderson’s first match this season is a big one, as he faces a man who is looking to get the ball rolling with a win against the former World Champion in the form of Brian Daniels, and the two of them had some choice words to say to one another, didn’t they?
Flannery McCoy: SOSA wants to bring the best out of Daniels, which he lost by growing content, but Daniels believes that it’s always been there, and that SOSA is stepping into the ring tonight with the best professional wrestler in the world. Both of them have so much to prove, and tonight, only one of them is going to be able to walk out of Nationals Park here with their hand raised in victory, and I guess we’re just going to have to see!
Jake Mercer: Right now, though, both competitors are testing the waters. SOSA and Daniels quickly engage in a collar-and-elbow tieup, trying to jockey for position and gain the advantage in the early going. SOSA is quick to grab a hold of the head of Daniels and pull him in, though, locking in a side headlock as he twists at his head, trying to dip down to a knee! Daniels is trying to muscle his way out, but SOSA is quick to execute the takeover, which brings him down to the ground, as he transitions into a grounded headlock now!
Stew-O: Daniels is quick to try and counter as he brings his legs up and wraps them around SOSA’s neck into a headscissors, but SOSA is quick to shift his body as he plants his feet to the ground and slowly begins to make his way up to his feet. He grabs a hold of the back of Daniels and lifts him upward, trying to transition into a Powerbomb position- But Daniels manages to slip out and land on his feet as both men stagger backward! SOSA goes for a strike directly to the face- But Daniels manages to duck under as he runs the ropes, BEFORE TAKING SOSA DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A SHOULDER CHECK! SOSA lands flat on his back, and Daniels, as opportunistic as ever, drops down and locks in a grounded headlock of his own!
Flannery McCoy: But SOSA manages to shift his body around as he slowly begins to rise back up to his feet. Daniels is trying his best to keep the hold locked in on him and keep him down on the ground, but SOSA is refusing as he pushes him against the ropes! He then looks to send Daniels to the other side of the ring, BEFORE GRABBING A HOLD OF THE ARM OF DANIELS AND TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH AN ARM DRAG! SOSA has an arm lock cinched in now as Daniels is doing what he can in order to get out of it.
Jake Mercer: He’s slowly beginning to rise himself, both men not willing to stay down even for a second, as SOSA transitions it into a twisting wristlock. Daniels is quick, though, to roll forward as he twists himself back up to his feet, turning around and turning it into a wristlock of his own! Daniels has a hold of him, BUT SOSA IS QUICK TO STOP THIS AS HE BRINGS HIS LEG UP AND CONNECTS WITH A HARD BOOT TO THE ABDOMEN!
Stew-O: SOSA turns around and runs to the ropes and back, Daniels quick to hit a drop-down as SOSA leaps over, before Daniels makes his way up to his feet and follows that up with a leapfrog over his opponent! Daniels then goes low, trying to go for a drop toe hold- But it’s SOSA who manages to grab a hold of the ropes just in time! He then proceeds to step forward, GOING FOR A KICK TO A SEATED DANIELS- But Daniels manages to roll backward as he makes his way up to his feet, TRIPPING SOSA DOWN TO THE GROUND AS HE GOES FOR A PIN- But Daniels kicks out before the referee can even start the count, both men making their way abc up to their feet, BUT IT’S SOSA THIS TIME WHO TRIPS DANIELS DOWN AND PINS HIM FOR A COUNT- KICK OUT! BOTH MEN MAKE THEIR WAY BACK UP TO THEIR FEET-
Flannery McCoy: AS IT’S DANIELS WHO SPINS AROUND AND CATCHES HIM RIGHT ACROSS THE FACE WITH A HARD DISCUS FOREARM! SOSA falls back against the ropes as he tries to catch himself, ONLY FOR DANIELS TO RUSH AT HIM AND TRY AND CLOTHESLINE HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE- BUT SOSA MANAGES TO SIDESTEP OUT OF THE WAY, SENDING DANIELS THROUGH THE ROPES AND OUT OF THE RING! Daniels lands hard at the ringside area, and now it’s SOSA’s moment to strike!
Jake Mercer: Daniels tries to make his way back up to his feet, but SOSA is quick to jump over the ropes and land on the apron, STEPPING FORWARD AND CONNECTING WITH A HARD KICK TO THE JAW! Daniels falls to a knee as SOSA enters back into the ring, turning around as he runs to the ropes and back, TOPE CON HILO- NO! DANIELS MANAGES TO SLIDE INTO THE RING JUST IN TIME, LEAVING SOSA TO CRASH AND BURN-
Stew-O: BUT SOSA LANDS ON HIS FEET! He manages to catch himself just in time before turning around, BUT DANIELS USES THE ROPES TO SWING FORWARD AND CONNECT WITH A BOOT DIRECTLY TO THE FACE TO LEAVE HIM STUNNED! Daniels is now looking to take advantage as he swings back into the ring, turning around and running the ropes and back, BEFORE SHOOTING THROUGH THE ROPES AS HE CONNECTS WITH A BIG SUICIDE DIVE WHICH FORCES BOTH MEN BACK AGAINST THE BARRICADE WITH AUTHORITY!
Flannery McCoy: SOSA QUITE LITERALLY FLIES OVER THE BARRICADE AND INTO THE FRONT ROW AS DANIELS COLLIDES SHOULDER FIRST WITH THE BARRICADE HIMSELF! Both men have dealt a lot of damage to one another in the early going, and by the looks of things, it seems like Daniels is far from through. SOSA is recovering in the crowd area, but Daniels has already turned around as he slides himself back into the ring. He grabs a hold of the ropes as he waits eagerly for SOSA to finally recover and make his way back up to his feet. What in the world could Daniels be going for here?!
Crowd: WHOAAAA!!!!!!
Jake Mercer: AND DANIELS JUST LAUNCHED HIMSELF INTO THE AIR! TAKING DOWN SOSA HENDERSON IN THE FRONT ROW WITH A HUGE SPRINGBOARD CANNONBALL! WHAT AN AERIAL ASSAULT BY BRIAN DANIELS, AND WE’RE PUTTING OUR WHOLE FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL NOW!
Stew-O: BOTH MEN ARE COMPLETELY WIPED OUT, BUT NOT FOR LONG! DANIELS HAS ALREADY BEGUN TO RECOVER AS HE MAKES HIS WAY BACK UP TO HIS FEET! HE GRABS A HOLD OF SOSA AND THROWS HIM BACK OVER THE BARRICADE AND TOWARD THE RINGSIDE AREA, AND DANIELS IS ALREADY MAKING A DEMANDING STATEMENT IN FRONT OF THIS HYPED UP CROWD IN WASHINGTON, DC!
(Daniels climbs up onto the barricade, spreading his arms out as he shouts at the top of his lungs to the thunderous crowd here tonight…)
Brian Daniels: (Off-Mic) I AM THE BEST FUCKING WRESTLER IN THE WORLD!!!
Flannery McCoy: And it was exactly as mentioned, SOSA doesn’t need to awaken anything from Daniels, the Brian Daniels that he wanted was always here all along! Daniels grabs a hold of SOSA and drags him up to his feet before rolling him under the bottom rope and back into the ring, and it seems like we’re back to keeping this contained within the squared circle!
Jake Mercer: Daniels climbs up onto the apron as he begins to make his way up to the top rope, eyeing SOSA as he makes his way back up to his feet. SOSA is doing everything that he can to fight back, but Daniels already has him scouted, AS HE PUSHES HIMSELF OFF OF THE TOP ROPE AND CONNECTS WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK DIRECTLY TO THE CHEST TO TAKE SOSA DOWN TO THE GROUND COMPLETELY!
Stew-O: And now Daniels is looking to make sure that he keeps the ball rolling, as he grabs a hold of SOSA by the head and brings him up to his feet, BEFORE BEGINNING TO DRIVE KNEES REPEATEDLY INTO THE ABDOMEN OF SOSA! SOSA is hurt as Daniels is forcing him backward against the ropes with his brutal assault, before Daniels then grabs a hold of him by the arm and sends him toward the opposite side of the ring with an Irish whip, BEFORE FOLLOWING THAT UP WITH A KNEE LIFT THAT TAKES SOSA DOWN TO THE GROUND! Brian then drops down and pins SOSA’s shoulders to the mat!
OOONNNEEE!!!
Flannery McCoy: BUT SOSA IS QUICK TO SHOOT THE SHOULDER UP! SOSA tries to sit up to his feet, but Daniels is quick to grab him and lock in a chin lock! SOSA is trying his best to escape from this, but Daniels has the hold locked in tight!
Jake Mercer: SOSA is slowly beginning to find his footing as he begins to make his way back up to his feet! Daniels is doing everything that he possibly can right now to keep himself in place, but SOSA is already up to his feet, AS HE REELS BACK HIS ARM AND CONNECTS WITH A HARD ELBOW TO THE CHEST, WHICH TAKES THE AIR OUT OF DANIELS’ LUNGS!
Stew-O: Daniels isn’t budging, but he’s struggling, and SOSA isn’t letting up! AS SOSA FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH A SECOND ELBOW TO THE CHEST, WHICH FORCES DANIELS TO COMPLETELY LET GO OF THE HOLD! Daniels tries to engage again, BUT SOSA MANAGES TO STEP FORWARD AND CONNECT WITH A HARD CHOP DIRECTLY TO THE CHEST, WHICH STOPS HIM IN HIS TRACKS! Daniels is hurt for a brief moment here, as he tries his best to collect himself, BEFORE QUICKLY EXPLODING FORWARD AS HE GOES FOR A KICK DIRECTLY TO THE CHEST OF SOSA-
Flannery McCoy: BUT SOSA MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER THAT AS HE RUNS THE ROPES AND BACK, WITH DANIELS TURNING AROUND!
Jake Mercer: AS SOSA IMMEDIATELY CUTS HIM IN HALF WITH A SPEAR, WHICH TAKES HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! DANIELS IS COMPLETELY FLATTENED, AND NOW IT’S SOSA WHO QUICKLY TURNED THE TABLES! HE HOOKS THE LEG AND GOES FOR THE PIN, AS THE REFEREE QUICKLY SLIDES DOWN FOR THE COUNT!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRR-
Stew-O: BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO QUICKLY SHOOT HIS SHOULDER UP! Both of these men have thrown everything they’ve got at one another, and it seems like they have absolutely no signs of quitting so far. SOSA begins to make his way back up to his feet as he takes a brief moment to catch his breath, before then making his way over and grabbing a hold of his wrist, slowly beginning to bring him back up to his feet!
Flannery McCoy: WAIT, DANIELS MANAGES TO TURN THINGS AROUND! HE SHIFTS MOMENTUM AND TAKES SOSA DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Jake Mercer: AND HE’S TRYING TO LOCK IN ‘THE FOURTH SEAL’! THE OMOPLATA CROSSFACE OUT OF NOWHERE TO TRY AND CATCH SOSA OFF GUARD!
Stew-O: BUT SOSA ISN’T LETTING THAT HAPPEN! HE’S SLIPPING HIS ARM FREE AS HE TURNS DANIELS AROUND WHILE HE TRIES TO LOCK IN THE HOLD, GRABBING A HOLD OF THE LEGS AS HE MANAGES TO RISE BACK UP TO HIS FEET! DANIELS TRIES TO SHAKE HIMSELF FREE, BUT SOSA MANAGES TO LAUNCH HIM OVER THE ROPES WITH A HUGE SLINGSHOT AS DANIELS BARELY MANAGES TO GRAB A HOLD OF THE ROPES!
Flannery McCoy: DANIELS IS HANGING FROM THE TOP ROPE AS HE’S DOING EVERYTHING THAT HE CAN TO GET HIMSELF BACK INTO THE RING! HE CRUNCHES HIMSELF UPWARD AS HE FLIPS HIMSELF BACK OVER THE ROPES- BUT SOSA MANAGES TO STEP FORWARD, CONNECTING DIRECTLY WITH A SUPERKICK TO THE FACE, AS DANIELS’ GRIP SLIPS AND HE FALLS TO THE RINGSIDE AREA!
Jake Mercer: Daniels stumbles forward as he tries to catch himself, turning around, but SOSA is already on the move! He runs to the ropes and back, BEFORE LEAPING INTO THE AIR AS HE TAKES DANIELS DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A MASSIVE FOSBURY FLOP! SOSA Henderson is feeling the energy now as the crowd is on their feet for this match, and rightfully so! What a display between two of Dynasty’s World Championship-caliber Elitists!
Stew-O: And SOSA isn’t rolling him back into the ring; he’s grabbing a hold of him by the wrist and directing him toward the barricade, AS HE SENDS HIM INTO AN IRISH WHIP TOWARD THE CORNER- But Daniels manages to stop himself! He brings his foot out and stops himself as SOSA quickly tries to run over, ONLY FOR DANIELS TO STEP BACK AND CONNECT WITH A BACK ELBOW DIRECTLY TO THE FACE, WHICH SENDS HIM STAGGERING BACKWARD!
Flannery McCoy: Daniels manages to create some distance as he grabs a hold of the head of SOSA, trying to direct him away from the barricade, BUT SOSA MANAGES TO FIGHT BACK AS HE CONNECTS WITH AN ELBOW DIRECTLY TO THE CHEST! Daniels is hurt, AND THAT ALLOWS SOSA TO LIFT HIM AND DROP HIM DOWN ONTO THE EDGE OF THE BARRICADE WITH A SNAKE EYES!
Jake Mercer: And Daniels is practically draped over the barricade at the moment, and now SOSA looks to take advantage of it! He’s beginning to climb onto the barricade himself, balancing himself as he slowly drags Daniels up. Both men are balanced on the barricade, as SOSA pulls him between his legs, seemingly into a Powerbomb position!
Stew-O: But Daniels is beginning to fight back! He’s connecting with strikes to the side of the abdomen! But SOSA is trying his best to keep him at bay, as he grabs a hold of him by the head, beginning to connect with repeated strikes to the spine! He’s doing everything that he possibly can to weaken him right now, but Brian isn’t backing down! Both men are going back and forth right now in a precarious position!
Flannery McCoy: BUT BRIAN MANAGES TO BREAK HIMSELF FREE! HE GRABS AROUND HIS WAIST BEFORE LIFTING HIM UP-
(THUD!)
Jake Mercer: SENDING HIM PLUMMETING DOWN TO THE RINGSIDE MATTING WITH A BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX OFF THE BARRICADE! SOSA lands hard as he immediately grabs his spine in pain, but Daniels is looking to pick the bones! He grabs a hold of SOSA and rolls him back into the ring, and right now he has this match right in the palm of his hands!
Stew-O: SOSA is slowly trying to make his way up at the center of the ring, hurt and doing what he can right now to recover. But Daniels has already climbed up onto the apron as he positions himself, grabbing a hold of the top rope and waiting for him to turn around! And I don’t think SOSA is going to like what he sees!
Flannery McCoy: AS DANIELS LEAPS OFF AND CONNECTS WITH A SPRINGBOARD KNEE TO TAKE DOWN SOSA COMPLETELY! SOSA IS WIPED OUT AND DANIELS IS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THIS AS HE HOOKS THE LEG AND IMMEDIATELY GOES FOR THE PIN! THE REFEREE SLIDES DOWN FOR THE COUNT!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRR-
Jake Mercer: BUT SOSA MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP! Just like Daniels, he’s not giving an inch right now. Who knows what it’s going to take to make either of these men quit! But Daniels knows what he’s going to have to do; he knows he’s going to have to give even more if he wants to make sure that he comes out of this match on top here tonight. And I guess we’re just going to have to see what ends up coming of that!
Stew-O: Daniels makes his way up to his feet as he grabs SOSA by the head, snatching his wrist and trying to send him into an Irish whip toward the corner- but SOSA is quickly able to turn it around as he spins Daniels into an Irish whip of his own into the turnbuckle padding! Daniels is backed up, AS SOSA RUNS FORWARD, GOING FOR A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT DIRECTLY TO THE JAW- BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER THAT, SENDING SOSA OVER THE TOP ROPE AND ONTO THE APRON!
Flannery McCoy: SOSA lands as Daniels turns around, AND IMMEDIATELY SOSA CONNECTS WITH A CHOP DIRECTLY TO THE CHEST! Daniels absorbs it, taking a good moment to recover, BEFORE FOLLOWING THAT UP WITH A CHOP OF HIS OWN, WHICH LIGHTS THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION UP! SOSA takes a moment to compose himself, BUT HE’S QUICK TO RETALIATE AS HE GOES FOR YET ANOTHER CHOP-
Jake Mercer: BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO GRAB A HOLD OF THE ARM! HE BRINGS HIS LEGS UP AS HE LOCKS IN A GOGOPLATA OVER THE ROPES! SOSA IS GETTING THE LIFE CHOKED OUT OF HIM, AND DANIELS IS DOING EVERYTHING THAT HE CAN TO TRY AND MAKE SURE THAT HE SUBDUES THE LIFE OUT OF HIM! BUT SOSA ISN’T GOING DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT EITHER!
Stew-O: HE’S WRAPPING HIS ARMS AROUND DANIELS AND MUSCLING HIM OVER THE ROPES! HE’S BRINGING HIM UP ONTO HIS SHOULDERS AS DANIELS IS TRYING TO SQUIRM OUT! HE’S FORCED TO LET GO OF THE HOLD AS SOSA MANAGES TO BRING HIM UP INTO A FIREMAN’S CARRY! DANIELS IS TRYING TO FIGHT BACK! HE’S TRYING TO RESIST, BUT SOSA ISN’T LETTING HIM GO-
(THUD!)
Flannery McCoy: AS HE DROPS BRIAN DANIELS DOWN ONTO THE APRON WITH A BRUTAL DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! DANIELS LANDS RIGHT ON HIS NECK AS BOTH MEN TUMBLE DOWN TO THE GROUND HARD! THEY’RE BOTH SPLAYED OUT ON THE RINGSIDE AREA, AND WHAT AN ABSOLUTE WAR IT’S BEEN!
Jake Mercer: SOSA is slowly beginning to recover as he makes his way up to his feet, gingerly sliding into the ring as he rolls himself back up to his feet. You can see the smirk on his face, you know that he’s getting closer and closer, and the longer this match goes on, the harder it is to fight back against offense like this. But if I know Brian Daniels, I know that he’s not going to quit. You can see him slowly beginning to make his way back up to his feet at the front of our announcer’s desk; he’s not giving in just yet!
Stew-O: Daniels slowly slides himself into the ring, AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY HE GETS MET WITH A BOOT STRAIGHT TO THE CHEST BY SOSA HENDERSON, WHICH NEARLY CAUSES HIM TO CAVE IN TO THE CANVAS! SOSA isn’t done, though, as he turns around and begins to climb up to the middle turnbuckle, all while Daniels is slowly dragging himself up to a seated position! AND IT’S NOT LONG BEFORE SOSA LAUNCHES HIMSELF OFF AND CONNECTS WITH A DIVING EUROPEAN UPPERCUT TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!
Flannery McCoy: And now, SOSA rolls himself under the bottom rope and onto the apron, this time beginning to make his way up to his feet. He slowly begins to scale up the turnbuckles and to the top rope, and you can just see the pain written on the face of Brian Daniels right now. You know that he’s trying to fight, you know that he’s doing everything that he can, but if SOSA connects with this, then it very well might be over!
Jake Mercer: AS HE FLIES THROUGH THE AIR AND CONNECTS WITH THE ‘SOSA BOMB’! TO CRUSH DANIELS UNDERNEATH HIM! SOSA FLIPS THROUGH THE AIR AND CONNECTS WITH HIS OFFENSE, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE HE’S NOT EXACTLY KEEN ON FINISHING THIS MATCH RIGHT NOW!
Stew-O: SOSA once again begins to make his way up to the top rope, as Daniels wasn’t planning to make his way up in the first place. He slowly begins to stir up to a seated position, as SOSA waits patiently, with his eyes narrowing, knowing that he’s looking to go for the kill. Daniels doesn’t know what’s going to hit him, and he’s certainly not going to like it!
Flannery McCoy: AS SOSA LEAPS THROUGH THE AIR AND GOES FOR THE ‘PAID IN FULL’! DOUBLE STOMP TO CAVE IN THE CHEST OF BRIAN DANIELS AND FINISH THIS MATCH ONCE AND FOR ALL!
Jake Mercer: BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO SLIP THROUGH THE LEGS OF SOSA AND GRAB A HOLD OF THE ANKLES, TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND AS HE MANAGES TO ROLL THROUGH!
Stew-O: COUNTERING THE ‘PAID IN FULL’ INTO ‘THE FOURTH SEAL’! CROSSFACE LOCKED IN AS DANIELS PULLS BACK ON HIS HEAD! SOSA IS CRYING IN PAIN AS HE KNOWS THAT HE’S TRAPPED IN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE RIGHT NOW!
Flannery McCoy: DANIELS HAS THE SUBMISSION HOLD LOCKED IN, AND HE HAS ZERO INTENTIONS OF RELEASING IT! SOSA KNOWS THAT IF HE LETS THIS STAY CINCHED IN FOR ANY LONGER, THEN THIS MATCH MIGHT VERY WELL BE OVER! SOSA IS SCRATCHING AT THE CANVAS, DOING WHATEVER HE CAN TO TRY AND REACH THE BOTTOM ROPE AND HOPEFULLY MAKE IT THERE! BUT DANIELS IS DOING EVERYTHING THAT HE CAN TO KEEP HIS WEIGHT SHIFTED DOWN ENTIRELY ON HIM AND KEEP HIM FROM GOING ANYWHERE!
Jake Mercer: SOSA IS TRYING TO REACH HIS ARM OUT, BUT DANIELS HAS A HOLD OF HIS ARM! HE’S BEGINNING TO MANIPULATE IT AS SOSA CONTINUES TO CRY IN PAIN! DANIELS IS TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT HE CUTS HIM OFF! BUT SOSA ISN’T QUITTING! HE CONTINUES TO SQUIRM AS MUCH AS HE POSSIBLY CAN, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S GETTING CLOSE TO SALVATION!
Stew-O: AS SOSA MANAGES TO PROP HIS LEGS AGAINST THE BOTTOM ROPE JUST IN TIME! THE REFEREE IS FORCING DANIELS TO LET GO OF THE HOLD, WHICH HE QUICKLY DOES, AND THE LOOK ON THE FACE OF BRIAN DANIELS TELLS ALL! HE THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS THE END OF THE MATCH, BUT APPARENTLY IT ISN’T! SOSA HENDERSON REFUSES TO LEAVE TERRITORIAL INVASION THIS WEEKEND WITH A LOSS, AND THE SAME CAN BE SAID FOR BRIAN DANIELS!
Flannery McCoy: Daniels is slowly beginning to make his way up to his feet, trying to process in his head what just happened and hoping that he can find something else that can hopefully keep him down on the ground. SOSA slowly rolls onto his side, pressing his hand against the canvas and beginning to make his way up to his feet. Despite all the pain that he’s going through, he’s still fighting as he manages to make his way up to a kneeling position, ONLY FOR DANIELS TO STEP FORWARD AND CONNECT WITH A HARD SHOOT KICK TO THE CHEST!
Jake Mercer: SOSA clutches at his chest in pain, trying to hold himself up, ONLY FOR DANIELS TO STEP FORWARD AND FOLLOW THAT UP WITH ANOTHER KICK TO THE CHEST! AND NOW DANIELS IS CONTINUING TO KICK SOSA IN THE CHEST REPEATEDLY! SOSA IS DOING EVERYTHING TO KEEP HIMSELF UP, BUT BRIAN DANIELS IS CONTINUING TO TENDERIZE HIM OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
Stew-O: DANIELS CONNECTS WITH YET ANOTHER KICK TO THE CHEST, AND WHILE SOSA MANAGES TO KEEP HIMSELF UP, DANIELS FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH A HARD ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD, WHICH COMPLETELY WIPES HIM OUT!
Flannery McCoy: You can tell that SOSA is hurt, but despite that, he’s trying to make his way back up once more, and I think Brian realizes this and has begun to slowly back up toward the corner. I think he knows that he’s close, and right now, he’s trying to put the finishing touches on this match while he has the opportunity to do so!
Jake Mercer: AS SOSA GETS UP AND IMMEDIATELY GETS MET WITH A ‘CAUSTIC ECHO’ DIRECTLY TO THE FACE BY BRIAN DANIELS! THE SPINNING ROUNDHOUSE KICK CONNECTS!
Stew-O: NO! NOBODY HOME! SOSA MANAGES TO GO UNDER AND LIFT HIM INTO A POWERBOMB POSITION! BUT ALMOST IMMEDIATELY BEFORE HE CAN DO ANYTHING ELSE, DANIELS GRABS HIM BY THE HEAD AND BEGINS TO CONNECT WITH REPEATED ELBOW STRIKES DOWN ONTO THE TOP OF IT! SOSA IS DOING WHATEVER HE CAN TO KEEP HIM UP NOW, AS DANIELS IS TRYING TO SLIP OUT OF THE HOLD AT THE MOMENT! BUT SOSA MANAGES TO HEAVE HIM UP AS HE TRIES TO DROP HIM DOWN ONTO THE GROUND WITH A POWERBOMB!
Flannery McCoy: BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO FLIP IT AROUND AND COUNTER SOSA INTO A DRAGONRANA! HE TRANSITIONS STRAIGHT INTO A PIN AS HIS SHOULDERS ARE DOWN ON THE GROUND!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
Jake Mercer: BUT SOSA MANAGES TO KICK OUT! BOTH MEN ARE QUICK TO MAKE IT BACK UP TO THEIR FEET-
Stew-O: BUT DANIELS GOES FOR ANOTHER ‘CAUSTIC ECHO’ ATTEMPT!
Flannery McCoy: BUT SOSA MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER IT-
Jake Mercer: BANG! ‘STOLE YO BITCH’ OUT OF NOWHERE! RKO CONNECTS AND PLANTS DANIELS RIGHT DOWN ONTO THE CANVAS! AND NOW SOSA IS WASTING NO TIME AS HE ROLLS HIM OVER! HE HOOKS THE LEG AND GOES FOR THE PIN ATTEMPT! AND THIS MIGHT VERY WELL SPELL THE END OF THE MATCH FOR BRIAN DANIELS RIGHT HERE!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
…
Stew-O: BUT THE REFEREE STOPS! HE POINTS TO THE ROPES! AND IT SEEMS LIKE DANIELS HAS MANAGED TO REACH OUT AND GRAB HIS HAND AGAINST THE BOTTOM ROPE JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME!
Flannery McCoy: SOSA is slowly beginning to make his way up to his feet, as you can see the look of exhaustion plastered on his face at the moment. I don’t know how much more either of these men is going to be able to take at the latter stages of this match, but I guess that this is something that we’re going to have to see for ourselves!
Jake Mercer: And now SOSA has grabbed a hold of Daniels and begun to pull him up to his feet, possibly looking for something else here! BUT NOT JUST YET! BRIAN DANIELS MANAGES TO BREAK HIMSELF FREE AND NAIL A VICIOUS FOREARM STRIKE DIRECTLY TO THE FACE! SOSA shakes it off as he falls back, BUT HE QUICKLY FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH A FOREARM STRIKE OF HIS OWN! And it doesn’t seem like it’s something that Brian Daniels is taking very kindly right now!
Stew-O: He’s insisting that SOSA hits him! That he throws his best shot at him right here and right now! AND SOSA OBLIGES AS HE CONNECTS WITH A FOLLOW-UP STRIKE DIRECTLY TO THE FACE!
Flannery McCoy: BUT DANIELS SHOOTS UP AND GETS RIGHT INTO THE FACE OF SOSA! HE WANTS MORE! HE WANTS SOSA TO HIT HIM AGAIN! AND THAT’S SOMETHING THAT HE DOES AS SOSA REELS HIS ARM BACK AND GOES FOR A HUGE FOREARM!
Jake Mercer: BUT DANIELS SNATCHES THE ARM JUST IN TIME AND TAKES HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! HE TAKES ADVANTAGE OF SOSA’S EMOTIONS AND NOW HE’S LOCKING IN ‘THE FOURTH SEAL’! OMOPLATA CROSSFACE!
Stew-O: BUT SOSA MANAGES TO ROLL IT THROUGH AS HE SHIFTS HIS BODY AND PINS DANIELS’ SHOULDERS DOWN TO THE MAT! HE’S ABOUT TO STEAL THIS MATCH!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
Flannery McCoy: KICKOUT! BOTH MEN MAKE THEIR WAY BACK UP TO THEIR FEET! BUT IT’S BRIAN DANIELS WHO MANAGES TO SHOOT FIRST AS HE SPINS AROUND AND GOES FOR YET ANOTHER DISCUS FOREARM TO THE FACE! BUT SOSA MANAGES TO BLOCK IT AS HE SPINS AROUND AND GOES FOR A DISCUS FOREARM OF HIS OWN-
Jake Mercer: ONLY FOR DANIELS TO SCOUT HIM AS HE EXPLODES FORWARD AND NAILS HIM WITH A FOREARM STRIKE AS A COUNTER! SOSA FALLS TO HIS KNEES, AND DANIELS IS QUICK TO FOLLOW THAT UP AS HE STEPS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD! SOSA TRIES HIS BEST TO KEEP HIMSELF UP, BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO STEP FORWARD AND CONNECT WITH YET ANOTHER ONE FOR GOOD MEASURE!
Stew-O: SOSA SHAKES IT OFF AS HE PSUEHS HIMSELF BACK UP TO HIS FEET, STUMBLING TOWARD DANIELS WITH HIS LAST BIT OF EXHAUST!
Flannery McCoy: BUT HE FALLS RIGHT INTO A ‘CAUSTIC ECHO’! THE SPINNING ROUNDHOUSE KICK DIRECTLY TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD!
…
Jake Mercer: BUT SOSA DUCKS UNDER THAT! HE GRABS A HOLD OF DANIELS AND BRINGS HIM UP INTO A FIREMAN’S CARRY POSITION! SOSA HAS HIM AT THE CENTER OF THE RING!
Stew-O: BUT DANIELS MANAGES TO SLIP OUT! HE TURNS SOSA AROUND AND LIFTS HIM INTO A FIREMAN’S CARRY OF HIS OWN! AND NOW HE HAS HIM POSITIONED! BRIAN DANIELS LIFTS SOSA-
Flannery McCoy: ‘PAID IN FULL’!
Jake Mercer: SOSA JUST PUSHED HIMSELF OFF OF HIS SHOULDERS AND COUNTERED WITH A ‘PAID IN FULL’ IN MID AIR, COMPLETELY CAVING IN THE CHEST OF BRIAN DANIELS AND WIPING HIM OUT! SOSA ISN’T DONE THOUGH! HE MAKES HIS WAY BACK UP TO HIS FEET AS HE BEGINS TOS CALE UP THE TOP ROPE THIS TIME!
Stew-O: BRIAN DANIELS IS HURT BUT HE’S NOT OUT, HE’S TRYING HIS BEST TO MAKE HIS WAY UP TO HIS FEET ALTHOUGH IN EXCRUCIATING PAIN! HE’S TRYING TO SOOTHE HIMSELF RIGHT NOW-
Flannery McCoy: BUT SOSA HENDERSON LEAPS OFF AND CONNECTS WITH A SECOND ‘PAID IN FULL’ TO COMPLETELY WIPE DANIELS OUT! SOSA IMMEDIATELY SCRAMBLES FOR THE PIN AS THE REFEREE SLIDES DOWN FOR THE COUNT!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
…
(DING! DING! DING!)
(‘Faneto’ begins to play through the speakers of the arena as SOSA Henderson immediately pulls himself off the body of Brian Daniels. With a smirk on his face, he makes his way up to his feet, having his hand raised high by the referee as the crowd reacts loudly for his victory here tonight. He quickly turns and makes his way to the top rope, posing as he celebrates his victory with the crowd here tonight in Washington, DC.)
Stephie Love: Here is your winner… SOSA HENDERSON!!!!!!!!!!
Jake Mercer: HOLY BLEEP! WHAT A MATCH THAT WE’VE JUST SEEN! Both of these men tore each other apart, but when it all came down to it, only one person was able to come out on top, and he goes by the name SOSA Henderson!
Stew-O: Daniels quite literally gave SOSA hell, threw everything that he possibly could at him, but when it came down to it, it was SOSA who had enough left in the tank to completely catch him off guard, seizing the advantage and managing to secure a win in his first match back in EAW. And what a statement at that!
(Daniels slowly begins to make his way up to his knees, looking up at SOSA, who has stopped celebrating and turned his attention to him. SOSA, after thinking for a moment, holds out his hand, which Daniels takes as he’s helped up to his feet. He then proceeds to raise SOSA’s hand in the air, congratulating him on his victory before then turning around and proceeding to make his way out of the ring.)
Flannery McCoy: Again, it can’t be understated that the performance these two had here tonight. Territorial Invasion was the perfect spotlight, and most importantly, SOSA Henderson showed that he is still at the level of a top-tier Elitist. What a match from both, and congratulations to SOSA on the victory!
(SOSA makes his way up to the top rope, once more posing, as it’s the very last shot seen before Territorial Invasion begins to fade elsewhere.)

Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL AND IT’S FOR THE EAW NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPIONSHIP!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(‘Wayfaring Stranger’ by 16 Horsepower blares across the field as Solomon Stane makes his grand entrance alongside Trixie Stane, walking side by side up the ramp with cold motion and an even colder intention, aiming at the National Elite Championship tonight.)
Gina Romono: INTRODUCING THE CHALLENGER!… ACCOMPANIED BY TRIXIE STANE!… FROM THE CITY OF SIN!… WEIGHING IN AT 266 POUNDS!… THE DELIVERER!… SOLOMONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!… STANEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Been a troubled few weeks building up to tonight, but everything is coming full circle as Solomon Stane finally steps into the ring, rightfully fighting for the National Elite Championship after weeks of anticipation.
Gavin Kirkland: Tonight, at the Capital One National Park, is where it all serves him in full light to unleash his violent intent and pursue malice against the champion to earn his triumph.
Deadprez: Look at the size of this man, wow. How the hell is Harper Lee going to deal with this giant? She’s like a thousand times smaller than him in comparison!
Gavin Kirkland: Well, that just means you don’t really know who Harper Lee is, and that’s exactly what you’re going to see more clearly tonight. A lot of people have forgotten that Harper Lee is an absolute threat, and her size won’t matter tonight because that’s just how great she is in the ring. Harper Lee is an exceptional talent with a breakout ability to outsmart the rest of the roster with her high-impact agility, and that’s why she remains one of the most remarkable and well-known women in the company, respected by everyone else who steps inside the ring. Is that clear?
Deadprez: Alright, dawg…
Eve: She doesn’t want you, man.
(Solomon Stane makes his entrance into the arena with his wife watching closely at ringside then ‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics hits, signaling Harper Lee’s arrival with Silas Mason following behind her. Draping the National Elite Championship around her waist, Lee flashes it to the camera and the crowd before confidently making her way to the ring, ready to face Solomon Stane and add another milestone to her record.)
Gina Romono: INTRODUCING THE CHAMPION!… ACCOMPANIED BY SILAS MASON!… FROM CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA!… WEIGHING IN AT 118 POUNDS!… SHE’S THE EAW NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION!… THE TROUBLEMAKER!… HARPERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!…. LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: This is a very unfavorable and high-risk match for Harper Lee to be in, but like I said, she’s going to make the most out of the dire situation tonight and retain the championship. I am a firm believer and a true fan of Harper Lee, and that’s why I know she’s going to make it out alive and leave Solomon in that state of the survivor just like the bastard son that he is. The comparison only serves to highlight how he’s no match for the greatness of Harper Lee.
Deadprez: The Yappatron is getting out of hand .
Eve: Anyway, let’s focus on something that matters statistically. Harper Lee is actually at a disadvantage in size and strength compared to Solomon Stane tonight. But considering that she has always moved forward and stayed on track to start her career in the company, and with how much dedication she’s shown through all she’s dealt with, I’m sure she’s going to surprise everyone and pull it off tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: This is also her third defense as champion, and she’s certainly not looking to let this slip away any time soon!
Deadprez: Let’s see….
(DING DING DING!)
Deadprez: Good God, man…. look at the size difference between the champion and the challenger when they’re standing side by side! Is this even a fair challenge for Harper Lee? I wouldn’t want to be in her position!
Gavin Kirkland: You have to understand, Prez. Harper Lee is a high ranked elitist and a seasoned veteran of the Women’s Division and EAW as a whole. There’s no challenger she wouldn’t accept. She’s a handpicked masterclass talent from Silas World, after all. Don’t you think this piece of work is going to do them wonders?
Eve: That’s a bit too much glazing for your Territorial Invasion evening, Gavin. Looking ahead, this is the BIGGEST challenge Harper Lee’s National Elite Championship reign has faced yet. We’ve talked about it over time in how dangerous this looks for Harper but rest assured, she might have a plan to turn this match in her favor.
Gavin Kirkland: And now Solomon Stane initiates his approach, stepping forward and trying to grab her with those bear-sized hands! But Lee slides under his legs and rolls back to her feet! Stane quickly turns around… BUT HARPER STRIKES HIS LOWER BODY WITH A RUNNING DROPKICK, TRYING TO GET HIM STUMBLING EARLY IN THIS MATCH!
Eve: Stane is already down on one leg as Lee keeps targeting his calf with repeated dropkick variations, both boots striking hard! Stane clutches his leg and hops back toward the ropes. But with only minimal damage done, Solomon quickly recovers and tries to throw up his other boot, aiming to smash Lee in the jaw!
Gavin Kirkland: And Lee is able to evade yet again, slipping to her feet with a Matrix evasion that sends Stane stumbling forward but he manages to pull the brakes in time!
Deadprez: Lee arches her body back up after the impressive dodge and quickly swings around with a Roundhouse Kick towards his hamstring before he can make any sort of turnaround!
Eve: Harper Lee is backed up near the ropes as Stane lifts his eyes once again, rage fueling him after being repeatedly targeted in the calves and legs. Now he charges toward her…. but Lee moves out of the way, sending the raging bull Stane through the ropes and out to the outside of the ring!
Deadprez: She’s been doing great work against someone ten times bigger than her in size and strength. Lee is already on point, making moves against much bigger competition, and she’s quick to hit the ropes again as Stane turns around…. LEE GOES FOR A SUICIDE DIVE-
(POW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Crowd: :lupes: !!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT A CLUBBING ELBOW LANDS RIGHT ON THE CHAMPION’S JAW, CATCHING HER AS SHE COMES THROUGH THE ROPES! My God…. the raw, unamplified strength behind that elbow could have sent Harper Lee’s soul flying earlier on!
Eve: Solomon Stane immediately takes advantage, using his size and power to snatch her victory away!
Deadprez: Oh my….
Gavin Kirkland: And Lee has been sent stumbling back inside the ring after being caught cold by that elbow. Solomon quickly slides back in to follow up on Lee, who’s holding her chin from the strike and looks up to see his fierce expression. Solomon tucks the champion beneath his legs and hoists her up onto his shoulders… A MASSIVE FALLING POWERBOMB ON THE CHAMPION!!!!!!!! BRUTAL FORCE BEHIND THAT ONE, FOLDING HER UP FOR THE COVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: AND ONLY A TWO COUNT! With Stane’s massive size pressing her into the mat, Harper Lee tried her best to kick out of it, but she barely managed to shift him off her position for just a moment!
Eve: Even though that wasn’t a lot, it was just enough for Harper Lee to escape the three count before it hit, giving her a nightmare of possibly losing her championship to Solomon Stane right here in Washington.
Deadprez: Poor woman…
Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee is already seen rolling to the outside of the ring, trying to get away, taking a moment to compose herself after the massive attacks she’s just endured that nearly carved her spine to pieces.
Eve: Stane follows her to the outside and attacks from behind with a devastating clubbing blow, hammering his fist into her back and sending the champion staggering away under the harsh strikes!
Deadprez: And look at the way this man is handling the champion! He just scoops her up from under the arms and tosses Lee through the ropes back into the ring like she’s a throwaway trash!
Gavin Kirkland: Is this how you treat YOUR woman as well?!?!??!?
Deadprez: Uh buddy…-
Eve: Harper Lee is his opponent, so it’s only fair that Stane uses his own privilege to strike her down however he wants. Lee is back inside the ring with no escape as Stane methodically traps her there, refusing to let her go until he sees she’s finished.
Gavin Kirkland: Lee is trying to stand back on her own two feet as Solomon Stane climbs onto the apron, looking to get back inside the ring- BUT LEE QUICKLY GETS OFF THE GROUND, DIVES TOWARD HIS LEGS THAT ARE STEPPED INSIDE, AND TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A SLIDING DROPKICK TO HIS LEG BEFORE HE CAN FULLY ENTER, CAUSING STANE TO STUMBLE AND DOWN NEAR THE ROPES JUST A LITTLE!
Eve: Lee has just bought herself some time by striking Stane’s leg, slowing him down from pursuing her further as she quickly pushes herself off the ground, seeing Stane already draped over the ropes after the leg had been taken out with that stinging kick! …AND LEE RUNS FOR THE ROPES WITH A SLINGSHOT MUSHROOM STOMP TO HIS BACK, CAUSING STANE TO STUMBLE FORWARD AND FALL BACK THROUGH THE ROPES INTO THE RING!!!!!
Deadprez: That Mushroom Stomp to Stane’s back was enough to make him lose some composure and send the bigger man falling back through the ropes and into the ring just a little!
Gavin Kirkland: But with only minimal damage done, he still remains firm on his stance and starts getting back to his feet. Harper Lee quickly reacts, runs toward the ropes, and hits back… AND LEE COMES OFF THE ROPES TO STRIKE HIM WITH A PENALTY KICK!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: BUT THE KICK IS CAUGHT! STANE READS IT IN TIME, GRABS THE LEG, AND THROWS IT AWAY… STANE SPINS IN WITH A DISCUS PUNCH THAT KNOCKS HARPER LEE LOOSE AND HAS HER SEEING STARS!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee is almost dropped after that punch knocked the soul out of her presence, but Stane holds her up off the ground with both arms wrapped around her. He’s setting her up for something, carrying her further down toward the corner and possibly looking for a high-impact throw. Oh wait- NO!!!-
Eve: WHAT A GIGANTIC BIEL THROW!!!!!!!!!! HARPER LEE IS SENT FLYING CLEAR ACROSS THE RING!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: THE CROWD JUST WATCHED THIS WOMAN LAUNCHED INTO THE AIR AND THAT’S CLEARLY NOT SUPERGIRL!
Gavin Kirkland: SILAS MASON CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ONE OF HIS TEAMMATES, SEEING HER HURLED THROUGH THE AIR LIKE THAT!
Silas Mason: :whoa~1:
Trixie Stane: :mjlol2:
Deadprez: This must be what it feels like when someone the size of Dr. Nefario goes up against a Frankenstein giant. Even I’m feeling bad watching this, seeing the champion decide to take this match with all her confidence!
Gavin Kirkland: DO NOT TALK ABOUT MY HARPEY LIKE THAT!!!!!!
Deadprez: ??????
Eve: At this point, Solomon Stane is close to toying with the champion if Harper Lee can’t fight back against a man of his size. Stane steps over Lee, already lifting her off the ground yet again and putting her in the same position… AND ONCE AGAIN SENDS LEE FLYING ACROSS THE RING WITH ANOTHER POWERFUL BIEL THROW TO MAKE SURE SHE FEELS LIKE SHE’S DROWNING IN MISERY FOR EVEN DECIDING TO FACE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Everyone has one very bad night, and this one is surely going to be the night Harper Lee remembers for a while with how viciously Stane has been treating her so far. Stane now continues to walk over to her again, carrying that same intimidation and imposing his will. Silas Mason is watching in high concern, while Trix Stane continues to cheer for her husband, making sure Harper Lee is finished!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee is trying to push herself off the ground with Stane delivering a soft shove across her as if instructing her to stay down. Solomon Stane continues to give her a disgusting look, showing exactly what his reaction is toward the champion.
Solomon Stane: (Off-Mic) Take a stand.
Harper Lee: (Off-Mic) ….
(SLAP!)
Gavin Kirkland: AND THERE’S A DISTASTEFUL SLAP THAT GOES RIGHT ACROSS SOLOMON STANE’S FACE, SHOWING THAT HARPER LEE ISN’T HESITATING TO STAND UP TO HIS INTIMIDATION! FIGHT BACK!!!!!
Eve: Stane grows even more enraged and makes a full-speed run at Harper Lee, looking to smash her in the skull with a Running Boot for real this time!
Deadprez: Lee makes the sidestep again, getting right out of the way and causing Stane to lunge forward into nowhere with empty space ahead of him. Stane spins around to face Lee but is stopped by a brutal Bicycle Kick driven low into his groin, stunning and stripping him of his momentum!
Gavin Kirkland: She usually aims that shot across an opponent’s jaw, but this time she had to go for the groin since she couldn’t even reach up! Stane holds himself after that powerful Kick, which was strong enough to push into his gut and leave him slightly sluggish with pain shooting down his stomach!
Eve: Lee gets off the ground and spins back with a Spinning Back Fist just as Stane is seen doubled over, holding his groin, dropping to one knee for a moment and slowing his momentum!
Deadprez: Solomon is seen holding his jaw after taking that clean shot from Lee, while Lee keeps her target locked in sight. She makes a run from where she started and this time delivers a Knee Lift to strike down Stane!
Gavin Kirkland: The Deliverer isn’t coming forward for another strike as he’s just gone under and is now looming over Harper Lee, who’s already much smaller compared to his bigger size. He lifts her onto his shoulder and hoists her up to the top corner, seating her there!-
(CRACK!!!!!!!)
Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD!!!!!!! A DISGUSTING THROAT THRUST RIGHT AT HARPER LEE CONNECTS AT FULL FORCE, SENDING THE CHAMPION TUMBLING OFF HER SEATED SPOT ON THE TOP CORNER, CRASHING DOWN OVER THE APRON AND EVENTUALLY FALLING COMPLETELY TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING!!!!! SOLOMON STANE HAS JUST BRUTALIZED THE CHAMPION IN A PUNISHING WAY!!!!!!!
Eve: Lee gets caught in the throat and drops headfirst to the outside of the ring. This has been a very hard challenge for Harper Lee to overcome so far, with Solomon Stane refusing to play into her strengths and instead using his size and power to his advantage, slowly wearing down the champion.
Deadprez: Silas Mason is visibly in much more distress, watching one of his champions laid out like this. Solomon Stane now steps out of the ring, closing in on Harper Lee before picking her up off the ground and taking aim at her near the barricade at the edge of the outside area… AND SOLOMON COMES CRASHING DOWN!-
(CRASH!!!!!!!!!!!)
Gavin Kirkland: LEE THROWS HERSELF OUT OF THE WAY!!!!!! SOLOMON CRASHES HARD INTO THE BARRICADE, HITTING SHOULDER-FIRST AND DROPPING NEAR THE FLOOR!
Eve: Stane stumbles up slowly, holding his painful shoulder after smashing it against the strong surface of the barricade. Lee gets off the ground, sizes up the target in front of her, and makes her move from behind… DROPKICK TO THE BACK! THAT SENDS SOLOMON STAGGERING AND CLUTCHING AT THE EDGE OF THE APRON WITH HIS STOMACH HITTING IT COLD FIRST!!!!!!
Deadprez: Lee is already eyeing a much bigger advantage, making it known that her opponent is down. Solomon Stane is still holding his groin in pain after being struck down further by Harper Lee!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee slides back into the ring and recovers quickly before hitting the ropes, while Solomon has his face turned toward them, trying to reach back inside… AND LEE COMES UNDERNEATH THE MIDDLE ROPE WITH A TIGER FEINT KICK TO THE BACK OF STANE’S HEAD!!!!!!! I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A CREATIVE WAY TO PULL THAT MOVE OFF AGAINST A BIGGER MAN!!!!!!
Eve: That’s just one way to escape a dire situation when you’re up against someone ten times bigger than you like Solomon Stane, and Harper Lee is starting to get more creative and strategize on what she has to do.
Gavin Kirkland: Stane is rolling back inside the ring after taking that shot to the head, clutching the back of his skull, already trying to recover on the mat. Lee notices it’s not time to lose momentum; she gets to the apron, climbs to the ropes, and begins scaling up to the top corner!
Deadprez: Silas Mason is looking up at Harper Lee like an angel blessing him and now she flies off… DIVING MOONSAULT-
Eve: BUT SOLOMON STANE IS ABLE TO ROLL RIGHT OUT OF THE WAY WHILE HOLDING HIS GROUND AND TRYING TO GET OFF THE MAT! LEE QUICKLY REALIZES THIS MISTAKE AND ROLLS OFF THE GROUND TO HER FEET!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee gets to her feet and now comes charging at full speed- OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! WESTERN LARIAT JUST TURNED LEE INSIDE OUT IN A WAY WE’VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE!!!!!!! THE BIG MAN JUST TOOK HER HEAD OFF COMPLETELY AND DROPS OVER THE CHAMPION FOR THE COVER!!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: TWO!!!!! HARPER LEE WITH A BARELY LIFTED SHOULDER! SHE’S JUST ESCAPED ONE OF THE MOST DEVASTATING LARIATS I’VE SEEN IN A LONG WHILE!
Deadprez: THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE FINISH RIGHT THERE, BUT LEE SURVIVES, GIVING SILAS MASON A SENSE OF RELIEF!
Silas Mason: (Off-Mic) :sob: :pray:
Eve: Solomon Stane has been a super overpowering force in this match, and Harper Lee can barely do anything about it so far. No matter how many shots she’s landed, Solomon has been overpowering her and outclassing her at every turn!
Deadprez: Damn, are we truly about to see a new champion crowned tonight????
Gavin Kirkland: All of you have been doubting my glorious National Elite Champion, at every turn and you will be proven wrong once she slays the giant tonight! Lee is already trying to get up and she looks so out of it, man. Silas Mason has gone too far on the champion in his push to take the championship away from her.
Eve: And now look at the Deliverer, he’s about to take out the troublemaker by using only one hand to pull her off the ground, dragging her back face-to-face! Stane looms over her yet again, throwing his arm around Harper Lee and locking her in place… AND SOLOMON SCOOPS HER UP FOR THE BIGGEST SAITO SUPLEX HARPER LEE HAS EVER TAKEN IN HER LIFE!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: LEE SLIPS OUT OF THE SAITO SUPLEX THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE HER OUT AND LANDS ON HER FEET JUST AS SOLOMON STANE LIFTS HIMSELF OFF THE GROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: Stane notices his mistake and swings for the Big Boot as she turns around but Lee dodges to the side, causing Stane to almost stumble after missing the boot! Solomon tries to recover and turn around, but Lee closes in once more, CATCHING HIM ON ONE KNEE WITH A STEP-UP ENZUIGIRI RIGHT TO THE FACE OF THE GIANT DELIVERER!
Eve: The 6’7” challenger is down to one knee yet again, with Lee trying to give full focus and attention to the opponent who’s been such a hard task to take down so far. Lee already sets herself, hits the ropes, and runs straight toward Solomon Stane… GOING FOR A RUNNING METEORA!-
Deadprez: BUT THAT ONE HAS BEEN DENIED YET AGAIN! SOLOMON CATCHES BOTH KNEES THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO PRESS HIM DOWN, USING ALL HIS STRENGTH TO HOLD LEE IN PLACE INSTEAD OF BEING TAKEN OUT EASILY!
Gavin Kirkland: STANE LIFTS HER HIGHER WITH BOTH KNEES STILL TRAPPED IN HIS GRASP, CARRYING HER AWAY WHILE LEE STRUGGLES BUT CAN’T ESCAPE!
Deadprez: BUT WAIT- WHY IS HE WALKING TOWARD US? WHAT IS HE THINKING-
Eve: GUYS, LOOK OUT!!!!
(CRASHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!)
Gavin Kirkland: HOLY FUCK!!!!!!!! HARPER LEE JUST GETS SENT ACROSS THE RING TO THE OUTSIDE, CRASHING INTO THE COMMENTARY TABLE AND TUMBLING ACROSS IT AS SOLOMON STANE MAKES A POWER RUN AND THROWS HER OVER THE ROPES DOWN HARD!!!!!!
Eve: THE CHAMPION TAKES ONE OF THE MOST HORRIFIC CRASHES AND LANDINGS SHE’S EVER HAD IN HER CAREER! SOLOMON STANE HAS ABSOLUTELY GONE ON A RAMPAGE AGAINST THE CHAMPION, AND SHE ALREADY LOOKS TO BE IN THE WORST SHAPE IMAGINABLE AFTER BEING TOSSED DOWN HERE!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Trixie Stane: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
(Silas Mason, watching what just happened, begins to palm his face and then turns to clasp his hands together, praying to the light with desperate prayers to save his Silas World daughter.)
Deadprez: This has officially been the worst night for Silas World, watching their champion sink into misery here with no turning back. Harper Lee was the one who made this match official, challenging Solomon Stane but this might as well have been the worst decision she’s ever made in her life!
Gavin Kirkland: Solomon Stane begins to step out of the ring and comes down to check on Harper Lee, who can barely crawl out from the table wreckage near her after being tossed down.
Eve: Stane picks her back up again, dragging her before tossing her back into the ring for the punishment to continue. Stane steps through the ropes tightly, towering over her to let the punishment simmer and intensify until it’s all done!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee is already trying to push herself off the ground, and Stane gives her a good look before turning around and coming off the ropes with deadly intent to take Harper Lee’s head clean off… BOOM! HE RUNS OFF THE ROPES WITH A SPINNING KICK THAT TAKES HARPER LEE DOWN!
Eve: And Solomon Stane doesn’t stop there as he keeps his momentum going and comes off… IMPRESSIVE STANDING SHOOTING STAR PRESS FROM SOMEONE HIS SIZE!!!!!! THAT ONE HAS FLATTENED HARPER LEE COMPLETELY AND SOLOMON STANE PROCEEDS TO HOOK THE LEG!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: AND TWO COUNTS! Solomon Stane has been super strong in this match, overpowering Harper Lee on multiple occasions!
Deadprez: Lee is still breathing and kicking out of every dangerous situation thrown at her as she fights to survive another day and retain the championship! Solomon Stane isn’t close to taking her out for good just yet to obtain that title.
Gavin Kirkland: Solomon Stane has no time to waste and is gearing up for another move now that he has a chance to seize it. He already clasps one of his hands around Harper Lee, dragging her off the mat in the same swift motion as he positions her head down toward his throat and lifts her up into the air…. HE COULD BE LOOKING TO PUT HER DOWN WITH HIGH IMPACT USING THE TRIUMPH OF TRUTH!
Deadprez: ONE HANDED CHOKESLAMMMMMMMMMMM-
Eve: BUT HE COULDN’T GET IT ALL AS HARPER LEE USES HER HANDS TO HAMMER AT SOLOMON STANE’S HEAD WHILE FACING HIM IN THE AIR, FORCING HIM TO EVENTUALLY DROP HER!
Deadprez: That drop causes Lee to stumble slightly near the ropes but she composes herself again as Solomon Stane is left momentarily blinded by those strikes that rattled him!
Gavin Kirkland: Stane is eyeing up, following the champion’s position, but Harper Lee gets up from the ground and sneaks underneath with a drop toe hold, causing him to tumble forward and drop to one knee yet again!
Eve: Lee makes the quick pivot, getting to her feet and heading toward the front corner, climbing all the way to the top as she lines up her next move!… DIVING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP FROM THE TOP TO THE BACK OF SOLOMON STANE WHILE HE’S TRYING TO GET OUT OF THAT DROP TOE HOLD TRAP!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Solomon gets hit hard from the air, his back arching before he eventually falls flat, holding himself for a moment. Harper Lee takes a long breath and notices she’s created a dangerous opening off it!
Gavin Kirkland: Now Lee pushes herself off the ground and heads to the ropes again, keeping her eyes close on Solomon Stane on the outside, trying to recover. Lee climbs to the top yet again, composing herself as she gets ready to strike!…. DIVING CROSSBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!-
Eve: YET AGAIN, SOLOMON HAS BEEN ABLE TO GATHER ALL HIS STRENGTH BACK TO GET TO FULL POWER, AND BEFORE HARPER CAN REACT, HE PRECISELY CATCHES HER AND STARTS TO ROTATE HER ONTO HIS SHOULDER! HE COULD BE ABOUT TO SEND HARPER LEE INTO A BURNING SPOT OF RING POST RIGHT OFF HIS SHOULDER!
(CRACK!!!!!!!!!!!)
Deadprez: BUT LEE IS ABLE TO SLIP OUT OF HIS SHOULDER AND SHOVE SOLOMON FORWARD, FORCING HIS FACE TO CRASH INTO THE RING POST INSTEAD! Solomon gets sent face-first into the post as he was supposed to send Lee down there.
Gavin Kirkland: Lee looks down from the apron, quickly climbs up, and is already waiting, just watching for him to turn around!… PENALTY KICK FROM THE APRON CONNECTS TO THE HEAD OF SOLOMON STANE, PINNED BETWEEN THE RING POST AND HER KICK!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Solomon is staggering, aiming to hold his head, and drops to one knee this time on the outside near where he got kicked around the post. Harper Lee is still holding onto one of the ropes around the apron area; she gets off again and already puts the speed into motion for a high risk… AND HARPER LEE TAKES THE HIGH RISK WITH A TWILIGHT CANNONBALL SENTON OFF THE APRON, LANDING OVER THE BACK OF SOLOMON STANE AND SENDING HIM TUMBLING DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Harper Lee is already trying to push herself back up and gather her composure after that high-risk move, both elitists still down on the outside for a moment after what they’ve done to each other. The referee starts the count on both competitors!
Referee: (Off-Mic) ONE!… TWO!… THREE!… FOUR!….
Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee is the one getting off the ground first, slowly, her head barely steady as she reaches for the apron.
Eve: Solomon Stane is trying to follow up, but Lee turns around and delivers a ringing boot to his jaw that lands a major hit, buying her some time to get up!
Referee: (Off-Mic) FIVE!…. SIX!….
Deadprez: Lee has already gotten back into the ring first and she’s safe for now! Solomon Stane, who’s been kicked in the same spot yet again, is getting worn down and slowing his momentum, while Trixie watches from far away!
Eve: She’s worried at the same time that her husband might not make it back in time as Lee watches him closely, seeing the way he’s struggling to get back inside!
Referee: (Off-Mic) SEVEN!….
Gavin Kirkland: SOLOMON STANE IS BARELY GETTING TO HIS FEET, TRYING TO GET BACK INSIDE THE RING ALREADY! HE’S ABOUT TO SLIDE IN-
Referee: (Off-Mic) EIGHT!….
Deadprez: LEE COMES IN WITH A SLIDING DROPKICK UNDER THE BOTTOM ROPE THAT SMASHES HIM IN THE FACE, SENDING SOLOMON EVEN FARTHER AWAY FROM THE RING AND DOWN NEAR THE CROWD BARRIER!
Gavin Kirkland: HE’S BEEN KICKED SQUARE IN THE FACE AND THAT ONE HURT HIM BAD!
Referee: (Off-Mic) NINE!….
Eve: IT MIGHT BE TOO LATE-
Referee: (Off-Mic) TEN!-
Gavin Kirkland: NO! NO! HE MADE IT! SOLOMON STANE IS ABLE TO PUSH HIMSELF BACK INTO THE RING, FIGHTING THROUGH THE PAIN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! STANE HOISTS HIMSELF UP, TRYING TO PUSH THROUGH THE HURT AND REGAIN HIS MOMENTUM, EVEN THOUGH HIS FACE IS STILL IN PAIN!
Eve: LEE HAS ALREADY SPOTTED HER OPENING AT THE DAZED OPPONENT AND SHE’S NOT AFRAID TO TAKE IT! SHE MAKES A QUICK RUN OFF THE GROUND, BUILDING FULL SPEED… LEAPING FROM THE GROUND FOR THE LONELY STAR KNEE STRIKE TO FINISH THIS ONE QUICK!!!!!!!
Deadprez: BUT SOLOMON STANE HAD NO INTENTION OF PLAYING HARPER LEE’S GAME! HE’S CAUGHT HER RIGHT IN MID-AIR, YANKING HER INTO HIS GRASP AND DRAGGING HIS ARM OVER HER HEAD!
Gavin Kirkland: LEE IS AT AN ULTRA-PANIC POINT FROM BEING CAUGHT YET AGAIN… AND STANE TOSSES HER FORWARD INTO THE ODIN’S EYE!!!!!!! THE GOURDBUSTER GTS CONNECTS RIGHT TO HER FACE AND DROPS THE CHAMPION COLD!!!!!!!
Eve: SOLOMON STANE QUICKLY DIVES IN FOR THE COVER! COULD WE BE CROWNING A NEW CHAMPION TONIGHT????!?!?!?
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!-
(….)
(…….)
(…………)
Eve: AND DESPITE HOW MUCH IMPACT HAS BEEN DONE AGAINST THE CHAMPION, HARPER LEE HAS STILL BEEN ABLE TO KICK OUT AT TWO AND SURVIVE YET AGAIN!
Deadprez: SOLOMON STANE IS WATCHING BACK IN AMAZEMENT, REALIZING HOW LONG IT TAKES TO KEEP HER DOWN AND HOW IRRITATING IT CAN BE AT TIMES WITH HOW MUCH SHE REFUSES TO STAY DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: Stane is slowly getting up to both feet and looking back to see Harper Lee already down. Trix looks into her husband’s eyes with a sign that she wants this done for good!
Eve: Silas Mason can only watch, glaring at Harper Lee, trying to stay hopeful but seeing little chance left. Solomon begins to pick the out-of-breath Harper Lee off the ground and seizes her with both hands… STANE COULD BE LOOKING FOR THE FINAL REVELATION TO CHOKE THE LIFE OUT OF HARPER LEE!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: BOTH HANDS ARE RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER, READY TO SQUEEZE HARPER LEE BUT LEE IS ALREADY TRYING TO SHAKE IT OFF-
Eve: OH NO!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: THAT CAUSES SOLOMON TO SWEAT AND STUMBLE AS SHE SHAKES FREE, ACCIDENTALLY STRIKING THE REFEREE IN THE FACE! THE OFFICIAL IS KNOCKED OFF BALANCE FOR A MOMENT WHILE TRYING TO MAKE THE CALL!
Deadprez: Solomon looks back and tries to call for the official, but he has no time to focus. He quickly turns around to redirect his effort at Harper Lee!
Eve: LOW BLOW!!!!
Deadprez: GODDAMIT!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee has just gone under the belt and kicked the challenger right between the legs, dropping him big time! She seizes the opportunity and is already making the run as soon as she knocks him down… SHINING WIZARD TAKES DOWN SOLOMON STANE!!!!!!
Eve: SOLOMON IS STILL TOO BIG FOR HARPER’S ATTACK TO BE ENOUGH TO TAKE HIM DOWN FOR GOOD! LEE DESPERATELY SPRINGS BACK ONTO HER FEET AT FULL SPEED AND SETS HERSELF UP, HITTING THE ROPES BACK AGAIN… SLIDING ELBOW ACROSS HER OPPONENT’S JAW AND THAT ONE EVENTUALLY DROPS SOLOMON STANE TO THE GROUND!!!!!!
Deadprez: LEE IS BACK NEAR THE CORNER AND ELBOWS HIM HARD IN THE JAW; SHE NOTICES SHE CAN GO FOR A HIGH-FLYING RISK TO MAKE EVEN BIGGER IMPACT!
Gavin Kirkland: AND NOW LEE CLIMBS TO THE TOP ROPE WHILE SOLOMON STANE IS STILL HOLDING HIS JAW AND STUMBLING AT THE SAME TIME. LEE LEAPS OFF THE TOP WITH FULL FORCE… DIVING SENTON ON THE BIG MAN!!!!!!! SOLOMON STANE IS LAID OUT WITH THE DIVING SENTON AND HARPER LEE LAYS OVER HIM FOR THE COVER!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: AND SOLOMON STANE POWERS OUT AT TWO, SENDING LEE POPPING INTO THE AIR JUST A LITTLE AND MAKING HER BOUNCE OFF THE IMPACT OF THE KICK-OUT THAT ALMOST MAGICALLY EMPHASIZES THE MOMENT!
Eve: What a match this has been-
Gavin Kirkland: WAIT, WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON HERE???
Deadprez: Oh no… no…
Eve: Trixie Stane has just been struck from behind and got sent down straight to the steel post! That’s none other than… PANDORA PAISLEY! She has absolutely no business being involved in this match, but that doesn’t matter as she’s just blindsided Trixie in the back and sent her crashing down!
Gavin Kirkland: Solomon Stane doesn’t seem to realize that his wife has been brutally blindsided from behind, with him still reeling from the Diving Senton from the champion and Lee is already back on her feet!
Deadprez: Somebody needs to stop this unhinged woman… What is she doing out here?!
Eve: Silas Mason seems to be catching on to what’s happening and is moving the steel steps around ringside-
Deadprez: OH NO! DON’T TELL ME!
Gavin Kirkland: These vile degenerates are brutalizing poor Trixie Stane, who was simply trying to show support for her husband. They’ve dragged her by the hair and wedged her between the ring post and the steel steps that have been pulled away from their place- WAIT THIS LOOKS FAMILIAR!
Deadprez: NO! STOP THIS NOW!
(## CRUSH!!!!!!!!)
Gavin Kirkland: DAMN YOU, SILAS WORLD! YOU BUNCH OF DEPRAVED MANIACS! HOW DARE YOU?!
Eve: Trixie Stane has just been brutalized, crushed in the very same way Auburn was at the hands of Pandora Paisley with Silas Mason lending his vile assistance!
Deadprez: This is completely chaotic and beyond reprehensible because it has nothing to do with the match itself, yet the morality is nowhere to be found with how heinous these two have treated poor Trixie!
(Crowd is booing even louder, disgusted by such a heinous act from Silas World toward an innocent woman, while Pandora stands coldly over the motionless body of Trixie Stane. Silas Mason arrogantly taunts the audience after their vile deed. The camera then pans back to the ring, revealing Solomon Stane with an absolutely stunned expression, staring down at the two and the horrific fate that has befallen his wife.)
Gavin Kirkland: Oh boy…
Deadprez: That’s NOT going to end well for them, dawg.
(Silas Mason suddenly realizes something and turns his gaze back toward Solomon Stane. Solomon looks down at him and Pandora with a murderous intent radiating from his expression and his deadened eyes practically speaking volumes without a single word.)
Silas Mason: (Off-Mic) Whatchu gonna do about it?! Your wife is DEAD!
Solomon Stane: (Off-Mic) You….-
Gavin Kirkland: DRAGON FIST!!! SOLOMON STANE IS UNHINGED, ALMOST BLOWING THE ROOF OFF WITH HIS RAGE, BUT HARPER LEE, SEEING HIS DISTRACTION, SURGES IN AT ONCE, DELIVERING THAT HARD RIGHT HOOK STRAIGHT TO HIS JAW AND SENDING THE BIG MAN STAGGERING DOWN TO ONE KNEE!
Deadprez: STANE IS TRYING TO DEAL WITH THOSE WHO WRONGED HIS WIFE, BUT THAT VENGEANCE MIGHT BE SLIPPING THROUGH HIS FINGERS NOW!
Eve: HARPER IS ALREADY MOVING AT BREAKNECK SPEED WITH HER FOCUS LOCKED IN! SOLOMON IS STILL STUNNED FROM THAT DRAGON FIST CRACKING HIM IN THE JAW!
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER’S RUNNING AT FULL THROTTLE…. LONELY STAR!!!!!!! A FLYING KNEE TO SOLOMON’S FACE!!!!!!
Eve: AND THE CHALLENGER IS DOWN! LEE COLLAPSES OVER HIS BODY FOR THE COVER TO PUT AN END TO THIS!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
(DING DING DING!)
Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER!… AND STILL!… THE EAW NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION!… HARPER LEE!
Gavin Kirkland: AND THERE’S NOT EVEN GOING TO BE ANY PRETENSE OF A CLASSY SPECTACLE TONIGHT! PANDORA PAISLEY JUST STORMED INTO THE RING WITH SILAS MASON TAKING THE LEAD, KICKING THE REFEREE OUT OF THE MATCH AND SHOVING HIM THROUGH THE ROPES, FORCING THE OFFICIAL TO LEAVE BEFORE ANY FURTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS CAN EVEN BE MADE!
Deadprez: Silas World has seized control of this chaos once again and this is where the real terror unfolds. Not even a marquee event like Territorial Invasion is safe from this sort of horrific act! We’ve had to watch this madness for weeks and now we’re seeing it spill over at Territorial Invasion too! We might need federal agents to haul these lunatics out of here!
Eve: And more assistance is charging into play! Here comes Donovan Duke and Brianna Hill running down the ramp to a chorus of even louder boos!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh man…
Eve: They’re risking everything by diving into the ring to jump Solomon Stane and his wife all at once, with Hill dragging his soulless partner back toward the apron while all three swarm Solomon Stane together!
(Silas Mason continues to prance around the trio ambushing Solomon Stane, while Brianna Hill cinches Trixie Stane into a guillotine chokehold, desperately squeezing every breath of air out of her lungs. Donovan Duke rains heavy shots down across Solomon Stane’s back as Pandora Paisley slams his head toward the canvas. Harper Lee has gone down to snatch up her National Elite Championship, pressing Solomon’s head into the mat while holding the title high above her head to flaunt her dominance as the crowd’s boos grow even louder, with their hatred and disgust for this faction spilling over with every passing second.)
Silas Mason: (Off-Mic) TAKE THEM OUT! KILL THEM! EVIL MUST DIE TONIGHT!
(Since it isn’t enough for him, he begins berating the officials at ringside, barking orders for one of them to bring him a microphone.)
Silas Mason: (Off-Mic) HEY! YOU! YES, I’M TALKING TO YOU!… GIVE ME A DAMN MIC!
(One referee rushes around the trio and offers the mic, only for Silas to snatch it ruthlessly from their hands and point down at Solomon Stane with a commanding gesture before yelling into the microphone in a domineering tone.)
Silas Mason: SHOW THEM WHO WE TRULY ARE AND SHOW THEM WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DECIDE IT’S A GOOD IDEA TO CROSS US! CROSS DONOVAN DUKE, CROSS PANDORA PAISLEY, CROSS BRIANNA HILL, CROSS HARPER LEE… CROSS THE SILAS WORLD! WE STILL RUN THIS ENTIRE PLACE, AND THIS IS JUST A CLEAR EXAMPLE OF WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU THINK OTHERWISE!trixie
Eve: And Hill is passing Trixie Stane straight over to Donovan Duke- WAIT, WHAT IS HE DOING WITH HER ARMS HOOKED LIKE THAT?!
Gavin Kirkland: TIGER DRIVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RUIN AND DEMISE JUST ABSOLUTELY ANNIHILATE POOR TRIXIE STANE, DROPPING HER NECK FIRST ONTO THE CANVAS! THAT COULD HAVE FRACTURED A PART OF HER NECK! DONOVAN DUKE, YOU’RE A CERTIFIED MISOGYNIST!
Deadprez: SOLOMON STANE IS ALSO ABOUT TO SUFFER THE SAME FATE! HARPER LEE HAS HOOKED THOSE MASSIVE, NOW-POWERLESS ARMS OF HIS, LIFTING HIM HIGH BEFORE PLANTING ONE FOOT DOWN ACROSS HIS HEAD…. SLEEPING ON THE FLOORS!!!!!! SHE PLANTS HIM AS HARD AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!
Eve: This is an absolute tragedy unfolding before our eyes! Trixie is already down, unconscious, and Pandora is manhandling her lifeless head with no mercy!
Gavin Kirkland: Donovan Duke, Brianna Hill, and Harper Lee are standing tall over the soulless body of Solomon Stane after laying him out! This is a vile display of pride and twisted dominance, doing something truly heinous to our Showdown faithful who fought so hard to earn their shot tonight!
Deadprez: Capture this. Take every frame of it and broadcast it to the world! These people are the epitome of villainy, an abomination to be eradicated from this land!
Gavin Kirkland: THAT’S RIGHT, PREZ! Look at Donovan Duke, short in stature but monstrous in the scale of his sins since betraying us at Road to Redemption last year! I wouldn’t even say the same for Brianna Hill and Harper Lee because they’re STILL my little princesses. And YES, even at this point!
Deadprez: Dawg…..
Eve: You’re going to hell, Gavin.
Gavin Kirkland: No, wait… this isn’t over????
Deadprez: What’s their obsession with Trixie Stane here tonight?! Solomon Stane is still laid out in the dirt, barely clinging to consciousness, trying to find any ounce of strength to crawl out of this pit!
Eve: TRIXIE HAS BEEN MANHANDLED AND RESTRAINED BY SILAS MASON, AND NOW PANDORA LAUNCHES HERSELF OFF THE ROPES…. PANDORA’S BOX DELIVERED STRAIGHT TO THE SKULL OF TRIXIE STANE! THAT KICK JUST KNOCKED HER HEAD CLEAN OFF METAPHORICALLY, COMPLETELY WIPING HER OUT!
Gavin Kirkland: Good god…
Deadprez: Now what are you saying?
Gavin Kirkland: I mean… Pandora is pretty powerful! Great show of strength, yeah!
Deadprez: You should be retired.
(‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics begins to play throughout the arena as Donovan Duke drags the lifeless body of Solomon Stane and traps him in the infamous ‘Shadow of Eyes’ which is known as Gogoplata submission to choke the life out of him even further. Meanwhile, Harper Lee, standing alongside Brianna Hill and Pandora Paisley, hoisting her championship high into the air as Silas Mason looks on proudly at his team, grinning ear to ear while receiving a huge jeering reaction from the audience as Donovan continues to brutalize Solomon Stane.)
Eve: This is exactly what we’ve been forced to witness tonight in this National Elite Championship bout. Solomon Stane has thrown everything he could muster to overcome the much smaller Harper Lee.
Gavin Kirkland: And due to the constant interference and chaos surrounding this match, it’s led to a conclusion that does him absolutely no favors.
Deadprez: Another atrocity carried out by Silas World! When is this going to end? Someone needs to step in and put a stop to this madness right now!
(Donovan Duke finally releases the lifeless body of Solomon Stane, rising up from the canvas to join Harper Lee. He reaches out and raises her arm, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the rest of Silas World’s faction. But something strange begins to stir with a strange shift in the air that’s captured perfectly by the camera’s slow zoom.)
Gavin Kirkland: What… what is this strange feeling?
Deadprez: Uhhhh…
Eve: I’m asking myself the same thing.
(Donovan Duke and Harper Lee lock eyes in a moment heavy with tension. Harper slowly steps toward Donavon, wrapping her arms and hands around his wrist with a sinister calm. Championship rests on her shoulder as she leans in closer, her expression flickering with something darker just as malevolent as Donavon’s at this very moment. Crowd’s reaction grows even more confused and uneasy, mirroring the stunned faces of the rest of Silas World, who are watching this development unfold in disbelief.)
Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee. Donovan Duke. What are they-
(## AND THEY KISS!)
Eve: WHAT!!??!?!?!?!?!?
Deadprez: Oh….
(Gavin can be heard ripping off his headset in pure rage, practically yelling at his commentary partners as he watches Harper Lee and Donovan Duke pull off a shocking maneuver together.)
Eve: They are… a couple?
(The two release one another just as Silas World continues their celebration, but the arena is cloaked in stunned disbelief. What had moments ago been thunderous noise descends into an eerie hush and the shock from everyone in attendance palpable as Territorial Invasion fades into a commercial break.)
( https://i.imgur.com/fJQD4o5.png )
(The camera returns to ringside, and Bella Braxton can be seen with a microphone in her hand, beginning to speak.)
Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen… The following tag team contest is the TWO FALLS OF TERROR MATCH!!!!! The rules are as follows. The first fall will be for the Hardcore Championship, and the second will be for the EAW World Championship!
(The fans cheer hearing this, but those cheers grow much louder as ‘Mr. Rager’ by Kid Cudi hits. Bronson Daniels and Jon Kelton both make their way out to the stage, and the two are more focused than ever. They know that the last few weeks have been heated, but beyond that, this is a bigger opportunity than they’ve ever had since becoming a tag team. They both look ready for this match, and they look at each other with a nod, beginning to make their way down the ramp as they prepare for what could be their chance to win both the Hardcore and EAW World Championships.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first!… At a combined weight of 400 pounds… BRONSON DANIELS AND JON KELTON, EEEELLLYYYYYYYYSSSSSIIIIIIUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: HERE WE GO! Two Championships are on the line, and Elysium looks ready for this. Remember everyone, it doesn’t matter who of Bethany and Adam takes the fall for these two falls. No matter who they pin or submit, should a member of Elysium take the first fall, that member will win the Hardcore Championship. Similarly, should a member win the second, that member will be the new EAW World Champion. That in mind, I wonder how these two are feeling.
Thadd Blazevich: I’m sure they don’t care how things play out as long as Elysium takes the gold. After all, we know that despite both wanting to be Champ, especially World Champ, they seriously care about each other. They’re some real bros if you ask me, and now could be their chance to both leave as Champions together!
Persephone: Or it could be their chance to get completely embarrassed just like they always do.
(After this, ‘Somebody Get Me A Doctor’ by Van Halen hits, causing loud boos to come from the crowd. The Hardcore Champion begins making their way out, causing the boos to only grow louder for Dr. Bethany Blue. Bethany has a confident look on her face however, not bothered by the reaction as she instead stares at the two members of Elysium. Rather than making her way down the ramp, she waits on the stage as Bella continues.)
Bella Braxton: And their opponents… First, from Miami, Florida… Weighing in at 125 pounds… SHE IS THE EAW HARDCORE CHAMPION, DOCCCTTOOORRRRRRR BEEEETTTHHHAANNNNYYYY BBBLLUUUUEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: Dr. Bethany Blue is here, and she and Adam will both need to be at their best. Obviously defending their own titles will be the main priority, but I’m sure they don’t want to lose each other’s Championships, either. This won’t be easy, especially against such a skilled team.
Thadd Blazevich: I know dude, but Bethany and Adam are some tough Champs. They’re bound to work together well, too. I mean, they’re a married couple! If anyone can be a match for Elysium, it might be them.
(As Dr. Bethany Blue waits on the stage, ‘Everybody Knows (Unstoppable)’ by Royal Deluxe follows. This only causes the boos to continue, as Adam Lucas begins to walk out with a focused look on his face. He meets Dr. Bethany Blue on the stage, and from there, he raises his EAW World Championship as Bethany raises her Hardcore Championship. They notice Elysium inside of the ring, both staring directly at them and their Championships, and from there the two Champions begin to finally make their way down the ramp.)
Bella Braxton: And her partner… From New York… Weighing in at 238 pounds… HE IS THE EAW WORLD CHAMPION, AAAAADDDAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMM LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: And finally, the EAW World Champion. Bethany and Adam both have a lot on the line, but they seem confident. There’s no telling what will actually happen, but clearly these two are not looking to lose their Championships. Not now.
Thadd Blazevich: These last few weeks have been seriously heated. I think it’s safe to say that these two teams hate each other at this point, but all that matters now is what they’ll do inside of the ring! All four of them are some of the best the Voltage roster has to offer, so dude, I think we’re in for an awesome match.
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Rich Russillo: HERE WE GO! THE FIRST OF THE TWO FALLS OF TERROR IS ON, AND THE HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP IS NOW ON THE LINE! Bronson Daniels is starting this match with the EAW World Champion Adam Lucas, and remember, if Adam takes the fall Bethany would still lose his Championship! The two men are circling the ring…
Thadd Blazevich: AND THEY WASTE NO TIME GETTING STRAIGHT TO IT! BRONSON AND ADAM HAVE AN AGGRESSIVE LOCK UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING- AND ADAM SLIPS BEHIND BRONSON! ADAM HAS BRO IN A WAISTLOCK AND LOOKS FOR THE GERMAN SUPLEX, BUT BRONSON IS ABLE TO FLIP OUT OF IT AND LAND ON HIS FEET!
Persephone: Adam quickly gets back to his feet, and he tries to swing at Bronson, but Bronson ducked under it because Adam moves like a snail. Bronson throws a kick backwards and sends a kick to Adam’s midsection, causing Adam to drop down to a knee!
Rich Russillo: Adam pushes himself back up, AND BRONSON CONNECTS WITH AN ENZUIGIRI! BRONSON KIPS UP AS ADAM STUMBLES TOWARDS THE ROPES, AND NOW BRONSON RUNS IN BEFORE CLOTHESLINING ADAM OVER THE TOP ROPE AND OUT OF THE RING! Adam Lucas is out at ringside and stumbles back to his feet, AND WITHOUT WASTING ANY TIME, BRONSON DANIELS TAKES OFF! HE RUNS THE ROPES, AND ADAM LUCAS MIGHT WANT TO WATCH OUT!
Thadd Blazevich: BRO, DID YA SEE THAT??? BRONSON JUST WIPED OUT THE WORLD CHAMP WITH A HUGE SOMERSAULT PLANCHA!!!! BRONSON GETS BACK UP AND SENDS ADAM BACK INTO THE RING! BRONSON IS TRYING TO GET THAT TITLE, BRO!
Persephone: Well the sooner it happens and this match ends, the better. Maybe Elysium will finally have their first major win an entire year after becoming a team.
Rich Russillo: Well Bronson is certainly looking to make that happen! He slides into the ring and backs into his corner as Adam Lucas stumbles back to his feet, AND NOW HE WASTES NO TIME RUNNING IN AND FLYING AT THE CHAMPION FOR THE BATMAN PUNCH!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT IT DOESN’T CONNECT, BRO!!!
Rich Russillo: ADAM IS ABLE TO BARELY AVOID IT AND CATCH BRONSON BEHIND HIM, SHOVING HIM INTO HIS TEAM’S CORNER-
Thadd Blazevich: AND RIGHT INTO A KNEE TO THE GUT BY DR. BETHANY BLUE!!!! BRONSON TAKES A STEP BACK AFTER THAT- AND ADAM RUNS IN BEFORE CONNECTING WITH AN ELBOW TO THE BACK OF BRONSON’S HEAD! Ah man, that wasn’t right, dude.
Persephone: So what? Bethany’s title is the one on the line, do you expect her not to make sure she keeps it?
Rich Russillo: Well speaking of, Adam just tagged Bethany into the match, AND HE PRESSED HIS KNEE AGAINST BRONSON’S BACK WHILE HE’S LEANED AGAINST THE MIDDLE ROPE, TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPORTUNITY AS BETHANY ENTERS THE RING! Bethany is in and Adam finally heads to the apron, GIVING BETHANY THE CHANCE TO KICK BRONSON IN THE RIBS, TURNING HIM OVER INTO A SEATED POSITION IN THE CORNER!
Thadd Blazevich: Bethany uses the opportunity to begin stomping on him over and over again, AND THE REF WAS ABOUT TO START COUNTING, BUT BETHANY QUICKLY GRABS BRONSON BY THE LEG AND DRAGS HIM OUT OF THE CORNER, BEFORE DELIVERING AN ELBOW DROP TO BRONSON’S LEFT LEG! I think Bethany is working the leg, and that’s a smart move, dude. In a match with two falls, having a weakness would be a real bad problem!
Persephone: She didn’t stop there, either. She holds onto the leg while getting back up, and she makes her way to Bronson’s side before YANKING HIS LEG TOWARDS HIS HEAD!! It looked like Bethany was straight up trying to rip his leg off for a second there, and honestly I wish she succeeded.
Rich Russillo: Bronson quickly rolls away and grabs onto the leg, AND WHILE HE HAD USED THE ROPES TO PULL HIMSELF UP, BETHANY HAS NO INTENTIONS OF LETTING BRONSON RECOVER! BETHANY RUSHES IN- BUT BRONSON EXPECTED THAT AND IS ABLE TO HIT HER WITH AN ELBOW! Bethany stumbles back, AND BRONSON LOOKS TO SWING AT HER-
Thadd Blazevich: JUST FOR BETHANY TO DUCK DOWN AND GRAB BRONSON, RUNNING FORWARD AND SENDING HIM BACK FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLES! Beth grabs the same leg she just worked on a moment ago, AND SHE DELIVERS A DRAGON SCREW! Bronson is really in trouble right now bro. Bethany and Adam are playing this one smart, keeping him trapped in their corner!
Rich Russillo: That’s true, and Bethany has also clearly found her target! Bethany now grabbing both of the legs- AND IT LOOKS LIKE SHE MAY BE TRYING TO APPLY THE “FRACTURED” SUBMISSION, BUT BRONSON IS ABLE TO PREVENT BETHANY FROM GRABBING THE RIGHT LEG, INSTEAD USING IT TO KICK THE HARDCORE CHAMPION OFF OF HIM! BRONSON WITH ONE MORE GOOD KICK FOR GOOD MEASURE, SENDING BETHANY INTO HER CORNER!
(TAG!)
Thadd Blazevich: Bronson pushes himself back up and tries to shake off the pain in his leg, and I think he knows that now might be the time for a tag! He looks at his bro in the opposite corner-
Rich Russillo: BUT AS HE TURNS BACK TO BETHANY, HE’S MET WITH THE EQUALIZER!!!
Thadd Blazevich: DUDE, ADAM MIGHT’VE JUST TAKEN BRONSON’S HEAD OFF!! ADAM WAS ABLE TO TAG HIMSELF IN WHILE BETHANY WAS IN THE CORNER, AND THAT LARIAT HIT BRONSON HARD!!
Rich Russillo: ADAM LUCAS IS MAKING SURE TO HOOK THE BAD LEG, AND THE HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP MIGHT’VE JUST BEEN RETAINED!!!!
OOOOOOOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRR-
Rich Russillo: BUT BRONSON IS ABLE TO GET THE SHOULDER UP!!!
Thadd Blazevich: Yeah, now he really needs to make the tag!
Persephone: No he doesn’t. Hurry up and wrap up the first fall!
Rich Russillo: It seems like Adam and Bethany are looking to do exactly that, all without Kelton even making it to this match! Adam Lucas drags Bronson up, BEFORE SENDING HIM INTO THE ROPES! I THINK WE KNOW WHAT HE’S LOOKING FOR!
Thadd Blazevich: LEVEL UP!!
Rich Russillo: DOESN’T CONNECT!!! BRONSON IS ABLE TO TWIST AND LAND ON ADAM’S SHOULDERS IN AN ELECTRIC CHAIR POSITION, ALLOWING BRONSON TO CONNECT WITH A POISONRANA!!!! HUGE POISONRANA BY BRONSON DANIELS, WHO NOW HAS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO BEGIN MAKING THE CRAWL OVER TOWARDS JON KELTON!
Persephone: Ugh, I can’t believe this is actually happening. Why are we still trying to make Elysium a thing??? Just hurry up and get this over with!
Thadd Blazevich: Not happening bro! BRONSON IS AT HIS CORNER, AND HE LEAPS OVER TO MAKE THE TAG TO JON KELTON!!
Rich Russillo: BUT HE’S STOPPED BY ADAM LUCAS, WHO WAS JUST ABLE TO MUSTER UP THE STRENGTH TO DIVE AT BRONSON WITH A FOREARM TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!
Thadd Blazevich: Oh no! Dude, Adam and Bethany are trying to stop Elysium from getting any momentum at all! Adam drags Bronson up, AND HE APPLIES A SLEEPER HOLD-
Rich Russillo: BUT AS SOON AS ADAM FALLS BACKWARDS, BRONSON IS ABLE TO ROLL OVER ONTO ADAM’S SHOULDERS!!! ADAM IS BEING PINNED FOR BETHANY’S CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!
OOOOOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWW+
Rich Russillo: ADAM KICKS OUT, BUT WITHOUT WASTING TIME, BRONSON GETS UP AND STEPS ON ADAM LUCAS’ MIDSECTION, STEPPING OFF AND DIVING AT JON KELTON FOR THE TAG!!!!
(TAG!)
Thadd Blazevich: JON KELTON’S FINALLY BEEN TAGGED IN, AND HE LEAPS AT ADAM LUCAS WITH A SPRINGBOARD KNEE STRIKE JUST AS HE GOT BACK UP! THINGS ARE HEATING UP, BRO! ADAM STUMBLES BACK TO HIS FEET, AND KELTON GRABS HIM BEFORE THROWING HIM OUT OF THE RING! Adam managed to land on his feet, BUT KELTON IS ABLE TO DELIVER A DROPKICK THROUGH THE ROPES, SENDING ADAM INTO THE BARRICADE! Kelton jumps back onto the apron, BUT LOOK!! BETHANY MAKES HER WAY AROUND THE CORNER, CHARGING TOWARDS KELTON!
Rich Russillo: BUT THERE’S BRONSON FROM THE TOP ROPE, DIVING AT DR. BETHANY BLUE AND TAKING HER OUT WITH A CROSSBODY!!! ADAM STUMBLES CLOSER TOWARDS THE APRON, AND NOW KELTON RUNS IN BEFORE JUMPING AT ADAM, TAKING THE WORLD CHAMPION DOWN WITH A DIVING METEORA!!
Thadd Blazevich: JON KELTON SENDS ADAM LUCAS INTO THE RING BEFORE FOLLOWING BEHIND, AND NOW KELTON RUNS THE ROPES- BEFORE CONNECTING WITH THE RUNNING KNEE!!!! “THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT” DROPS ADAM! KELTON HOOKS THE LEGS!!! BRO, JON KELTON MIGHT JUST BECOME THE HARDCORE CHAMPION!!!!
OOOOOOONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
TTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTHHHHHRRRR-
Thadd Blazevich: ADAM LUCAS KICKS OUT!!!!!
Persephone: I should’ve expected that. Jon Kelton can’t do anything right.
Rich Russillo: Well regardless, Jon Kelton appears to have something else already in mind as he drags Adam Lucas back up, sending him into an empty corner before following behind, AND CONNECTING WITH A-
Thadd Blazevich: NO! ADAM WAS ABLE TO GET THE BOOT UP, BRO! Jon Kelton stumbles back, AND ADAM PULLS HIMSELF ONTO THE MIDDLE ROPE BEFORE TAKING KELTON DOWN WITH A DIVING DOUBLE AXE HANDLE! Dr. Bethany Blue is starting to make her way back to her corner I think, and that’s perfect for Adam, who has been in this match for a while!
Persephone: Adam starts dragging Kelton back up, but Kelton punches Adam in the ribs, BEFORE HITTING ADAM WITH ANOTHER ONE TO THE JAW! Unfortunately, that didn’t knock Adam out entirely.
Rich Russillo: Instead Adam was able to respond with a forearm, BUT KELTON HITS ADAM WITH A FOREARM OF HIS OWN NOW! ADAM SENDS ONE TO KELTON, AND NOW BOTH MEN JUST GO BACK AND FORTH, TRADING STRIKES WITH EACH OTHER!
Thadd Blazevich: I THINK KELTON GOT THE BETTER OF HIM, DUDE! BRO JUST DUCKED ONE OF THE FOREARMS, BEFORE SURPRISING ADAM WITH AN UPPERCUT! ADAM FALLS BACK TO A KNEE, AND KELTON RUNS THE ROPES-
Persephone: RIGHT INTO A SPINEBUSTER!!! Adam Lucas caught the career loser and planted him with the spinebuster, and what do you know, it looks like Dr. Bethany Blue has made it back onto the apron! Guess it’s time for Elysium to do what they do best and lose.
Rich Russillo: Adam Lucas tags the Hardcore Champion back in, and now Adam makes his way back to Kelton before grabbing onto both of his arms, pulling them hard enough for Kelton’s head to be raised off of the mat! Dr. Bethany Blue remains in the corner, but I think I have an idea what they’re planning! BETHANY IS LOOKING FOR A CONCUSSION PROTOCOL THAT KELTON WON’T BE ABLE TO AVOID-
Thadd Blazevich: GODBREAKER!!!!
Rich Russillo: BRONSON DANIELS TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE FACT THAT EVERYONE WAS IN THE RING AND SAVED KELTON, TAKING OUT ADAM LUCAS WITH THE GODBREAKER!!! ADAM FALLS THROUGH THE ROPES AND OUT TO RINGSIDE, JUST BEFORE BETHANY COULD DELIVER THE CURB STOMP ON KELTON! Bronson returns to his feet-
Thadd Blazevich: AND BETHANY JUST KICKED HIS BAD LEG OUT FROM UNDER HIM, BEFORE KICKING HIS HEAD OFF HIS BODY!!!! BRO, THAT TJD TOTALLY JUST DROPPED BRONSON DANIELS!!!
Rich Russillo: BETHANY WASTES NO TIME RUNNING THE ROPES AFTER THIS, AND SHE JUMPS AT JON KELTON FOR THE CONCUSSION PROTOCOL!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: NO DUDE, IT DIDN’T CONNECT!!! KELTON WAS ABLE TO BARELY PULL HIS HEAD OUT OF THE WAY, BEFORE PULLING BETH INTO A ROLL UP! KELTON MIGHT JUST PIN THE CHAMP FOR HER HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!
OOOOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTW-
Rich Russillo: DR. BETHANY BLUE KICKS OUT-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT KELTON GETS UP AND PULLS BETHANY INTO THE DOUBLE UNDERHOOK FOR CHANGE THE FUTURE!!!!
Persephone: BUT OBVIOUSLY, IT DOESN’T WORK! Bethany shoved Kelton off of her before pulling him into a knee to the gut, and that just made Kelton stumble, GIVING BETHANY THE CHANCE TO GO FOR THE REMEDY!!
Rich Russillo: BUT KELTON IS ABLE TO SHOVE BETHANY AWAY THIS TIME- AND AS SOON AS BETHANY TURNS AROUND, KELTON CATCHES HER WITH THE GALICK GUN!!! DR. BETHANY BLUE IS THE ONE TO GET DROPPED BY A SUPERKICK THIS TIME, AND NOW JON KELTON QUICKLY HOOKS THE LEGS FOR THE COVER!! WE’RE ABOUT TO SEE A NEW HARDCORE CHAMPION!!!
OOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTTWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT BETH AIN’T LETTING HER TITLE GO THAT EASILY!!! SHE GOT THE SNOULDER UP, JUST BEFORE THREE!!!
Persephone: Great. As if that wasn’t bad enough, it looks like Adam and Bronson have made it back to the apron.
Rich Russillo: Yeah, and Kelton isn’t wasting any time! HE MAKES THE TAG TO BRONSON, AND WITH BETHANY STILL OUT OF IT, I THINK THIS MIGHT BE THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY! KELTON PASSES BETHANY OVER TO BRONSON, AND I THINK WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY’RE SETTING UP FOR!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: THAT’S RIGHT BRO, THESE TWO ARE GOING FOR HAKAI!!!! TO WIN THE HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
Rich Russillo: AND BETHANY CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AS SHE’S STILL HURTING FROM THE GALICK GUN! ELYSIUM LOOKS ABOUT READY TO TAKE ONE OF THESE TITLES HOME, AS KELTON RUSHES TOWARDS THE ROPES-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT WAIT A SECOND!!! ADAM JUST RUSHED TO THAT SIDE OF THE RING AND PULLED DOWN THE MIDDLE ROPE, CAUSING KELTON TO FALL THROUGH AND OUT TO RINGSIDE!
Rich Russillo: KELTON JUST HIT THE RINGSIDE FLOOR HARD, AND THAT DISTRACTION GAVE BETHANY ALL THE TIME SHE NEEDED TO PULL BRONSON DANIELS INTO A ROLL UP!
OOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTHHHHRRREEEEE-
Persephone: UGH!! BRONSON KICKED OUT, AND THANKS TO ALL THAT TIME HE HAD TO RECOVER HE’S GETTING BACK UP!
Rich Russillo: BUT BETHANY BACKS UP, ALLOWING ADAM TO TAG HIMSELF IN! Adam quickly gets in the ring, AND HE RUSHES IN FOR GENESIS!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT BRONSON HAS IT SCOUTED!!! BRONSON WAS ABLE TO AVOID THAT, AND NOW HE TURNS AND HITS ADAM WITH A DISCUS FOREARM SMASH! Adam stumbled, BUT HE’S QUICK TO HIT BRONSON WITH A FOREARM IN RETURN! BRONSON RESPONDS WITH AN UPPERCUT, AND ADAM JUST SOCKS BRO IN THE JAW! THESE TWO ARE REALLY GOING BACK AND FORTH RIGHT NOW, MEANWHILE KELTON IS MAKING IT BACK TO THE APRON!
Rich Russillo: ADAM LOOKS FOR A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION- BUT BRONSON CATCHES IT! BRONSON SPINS ADAM AROUND- AND ADAM LOOKED TO USE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO FOR THE DISCUS PUNCH, BUT BRONSON WAS ABLE TO DUCK UNDER BEFORE HITTING ADAM WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK, MAKING ADAM STUMBLE BACKWARDS! Bronson steps back a bit to create space, BEFORE FINALLY HE RUNS IN!
Thadd Blazevich: BATMAN PUNCH!!!
Rich Russillo: GENESIS!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BRO, DID YOU SEE THAT??? ADAM WENT FOR HIS SPRINGBOARD SUPERMAN PUNCH WHILE BRONSON WENT FOR HIS OWN SUPERMAN PUNCH, AND THEY JUST HIT EACH OTHER AT THE SAME TIME! THAT WAS LIKE A MOVIE OR SOMETHING!
Persephone: It was ridiculous if you ask me, but since Bethany and Kelton are both on the apron, it looks like that collision might not be much of a detriment to either of them. They’re both crawling to their team’s corners, and at this rate, but given where they both are in the ring, I think Adam’s gonna make it to Bethany first.
(TAG!)
Rich Russillo: I THINK YOU WERE RIGHT!!! BETHANY HAS MADE IT BACK INTO THE MATCH, AS BRONSON DANIELS FINALLY LEAPS OUT AT KELTON!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BETHANY RUNS TO ELYSIUM’S CORNER TO STOP BRONSON!
(TAG!)
Rich Russillo: BUT SHE WAS TOO LATE! KELTON LEAPS BACK INTO THE RING- AND HE DUCKS A SWING FROM BETHANY BEFORE KICKING HER IN THE MIDSECTION! KELTON PULLS HER IN, BEFORE DROPPING THE HARDCORE CHAMPION HEADFIRST ONTO THE MAT WITH CHANGE THE FUTURE!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BRO!! KELTON HAD THE PERFECT OPENING AND HE TOOK IT!!! BETHANY IS DOWN, AND NOW KELTON ROLLS OUT TO THE APRON BEFORE DRAGGING HIMSELF UP TOP! BRO, IS HE ACTUALLY GONNA DO IT!?!?
Persephone: Who cares???? Just hurry up and do SOMETHING so we can get to the second fall!
Rich Russillo: Dr. Bethany Blue is forcing herself back up, BUT JON KELTON IS ON THE TOP ROPE, AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HE’S WAITING FOR!!! THIS MAY JUST BE IT! KELTON’S CHANCE TO HOLD CHAMPIONSHIP GOLD FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2023, DURING THE DAYS OF DEVOLUTION!
Thadd Blazevich: Beth was able to push herself up, AND SHE LOOKS UP AT THE TOP ROPE!
Rich Russillo: AND SEES JON KELTON DIVING AT HER FOR “THE LAW OF EQUIVALENT EXCHANGE”!!!!!!!!!
Persephone: TJD!!!!
Rich Russillo: WHAT THE HELL???? DR. BETHANY BLUE JUST SUPERKICKED JON KELTON OUT OF THE AIR!!!!! WITH JUST ENOUGH TIME, BETHANY WAS ABLE TO LAND THAT SUPERKICK AND PREVENT WHAT MIGHT’VE BEEN THE FINISHING BLOW TO HER CHAMPIONSHIP REIGN! KELTON IMMEDIATELY DROPS TO HIS KNEES AFTER NEARLY HAVING HIS JAW KICKED OFF OF HIS BODY, AND NOW BETHANY WASTES NO TIME!
Thadd Blazevich: SAY AAAHHHHHHHHH, BRO!!!!!! DR. BETHANY BLUE JUST TRAPPED KELTON IN THE MANDIBLE CLAW, TAKING BRO TO THE MAT AS HE HAS NOWHERE TO GO!!!! KELTON IS SCRAMBLING, FLAILING HIS ARMS TO TRY AND REACH THE ROPES, BUT BETHANY WAS ABLE TO TURN KELTON AWAY FROM THEM! HE MIGHT BE COOKED, DUDE!
Rich Russillo: BETHANY GRABS ONE OF KELTON’S ARMS, AND SHE PLACES HER KNEE ON TOP OF IT! BETHANY KNOWS KELTON IS THE LARGER ELITIST, SO SHE APPREHENDED THE ARM SO KELTON WOULD HAVE A HARDER TIME FIGHTING OUT OF IT!
Thadd Blazevich: Bronson is stirring on the apron. Bro might have to make a play right now to help his teammate, because I don’t think Kelton will be able to stay in a hold like this much longer!
Rich Russillo: I THINK YOU’RE RIGHT! BRONSON GETS UP, AND HE RUSHES OVER TO THAT SIDE OF THE RING!!! BRONSON JUMPS TO THE TOP ROPE-
Persephone: NO HE DOESN’T!!!! WHATEVER PLANS HE HAD OF SAVING KELTON WERE JUST DERAILED, BECAUSE ADAM LUCAS JUST RAN OVER AND CAUGHT BRONSON BY THE LEG, PULLING BRONSON FACE FIRST ONTO THE APRON! So much for that plan!
Rich Russillo: ADAM GRABS BRONSON, AND HE SENDS HIM CRASHING INTO THE STEEL STEPS!!! BRONSON IS DOWN, BUT ADAM ISN’T DONE THERE! HE GRABS BRONSON AGAIN, BEFORE- WOAH!!!!
(Suddenly, the sound of rumbling is heard as all three commentators are forced to abandon their seats, watching as Bronson Daniels is thrown over the table and towards their chairs.)
Persephone: You can’t be serious.
Rich Russillo: BRONSON DANIELS WAS JUST THROWN OVER OUR TABLE, AND THAT MIGHT JUST BE IT FOR KELTON! HE’S TRAPPED IN THIS MANDIBLE CLAW, AND HE’S SLOWLY STARTING TO FADE!
Thadd Blazevich: HE’S TRYING, BUT AFTER WHAT HE WAS JUST HIT WITH, HE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THIS ONE! I THINK THIS IS IT!
(Jon Kelton continues trying to fight out of Dr. Bethany Blue’s grasp, reaching out for anything he can despite his attempts continuing to grow weaker.)
(He keeps fighting, trying as hard as he can until finally…)
Rich Russillo: JON KELTON HAS PASSED OUT! THE FIRST FALL IS OVER!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Bella Braxton: Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue have won the first fall! Therefore… STILL YOUR HARDCORE CHAMPION… DOCTORRRRRR BEEEEETTHHHHANNNNNYYYYYYY BBBBBLLLLLUUUUUUUEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
(The fans begin to loudly boo, not happy whatsoever as Dr. Bethany Blue slowly pushes herself back up. She has a smirk on her face, as does Adam Lucas as he slowly makes his way back towards the apron. Bronson Daniels is still laid out by the commentary table, unable to react to what just happened at the end of the first fall, while the referee checks on Jon Kelton.)
Rich Russillo: THE HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP HAS BEEN RETAINED! Elysium fought so hard, but in the end that one excellent counter changed everything. Dr. Bethany Blue had Kelton trapped once the submission was applied, and while Bronson tried to help, Adam knew to prevent that from happening. Excellent teamwork from both sides, but Adam and Bethany proved that their chemistry clearly extends to their in-ring work as well.
Thadd Blazevich: Yeah, but it’s not over yet, bro! We still have another fall, and this time it’s Adam’s Championship on the line! It’s a shame, though. Now at best, only one member of Elysium can leave this match with gold!
Persephone: Wouldn’t be an Elysium match without someone fumbling. This isn’t anything new.
(The referee waits as Jon Kelton slowly begins to use the ropes to pull himself up, making sure he is in any condition to continue. Bronson Daniels is slowly beginning to stir, meanwhile Dr. Bethany Blue and Adam Lucas still have wide grins on their faces, knowing that the opponent in front of them doesn’t have anything left. Finally, once Kelton is actually standing, the referee calls for the bell to begin the second fall.)
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Rich Russillo: Here we go, the second fall is underway, but Elysium is in terrible shape right now. Bronson was just taken out by Adam Lucas, meanwhile Jon Kelton was just put through Bethany’s most dangerous submission! That was a tough first fall, but I’m not sure if the second fall will last anywhere near as long.
Thadd Blazevich: Bethany makes the tag to Adam, and bro, I think she’s just giving him the floor to retain his own title himself like she did, since Kelton’s all cooked.
Rich Russillo: As cruel as it is, I don’t think there’s anything that can be done about it at this point! KELTON TRIES TO SWING AT ADAM, BUT ADAM GRABS HIM BEFORE KNEEING HIM IN THE MIDSECTION! Kelton drops down to a knee, and I think we may be seeing a very short second fall!
Persephone: Good. Adam looks towards the ropes, AND HE SENDS KELTON RIGHT INTO THEM SO HE CAN END THIS WITH LEVEL UP!!!
(However, this doesn’t happen. Instead, Kelton falls to the mat, rolling under the bottom rope and outside of the ring.)
Persephone: :francis:
Rich Russillo: Jon Kelton might’ve just saved himself there, and I don’t even know whether or not it was intentional. Adam’s just shaking his head though, casually walking out of the ring as he knows this match is in his and Bethany’s hands.
Thadd Blazevich: Bronson is leaning against our table to push himself back up, and Adam just shakes his head at bro before walking away, turning the corner to get to-
(CRASH!)
Persephone: ???
Rich Russillo: FINAL ATONEMENT THROUGH THE BARRICADE!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BROOO, WHAT IS GOING ON???? KELTON JUST SPEARED ADAM LUCAS THROUGH THE BARRICADE ONCE HE TURNED THE CORNER!!!! HOW THE HELL DID HE PULL THAT OFF????
Rich Russillo: HE WAS ABLE TO BUY HIMSELF A SLIGHT BIT OF TIME TO RECOVER, AND APPARENTLY, THAT WAS JUST ENOUGH FOR HIM TO PULL OFF THAT CRAZY SPEAR, TAKING OUT ADAM LUCAS!!!
Persephone: Wow, Kelton did something useful again. I don’t know if it’s enough to make up for him losing the Hardcore Championship for Elysium, though.
Thadd Blazevich: This match is crazy dude, I can’t believe this! Jon Kelton is slowly grabbing onto the barricade to pull himself up-
Rich Russillo: BUT HERE COMES DR. BETHANY BLUE, ATTACKING KELTON FROM BEHIND!!! KELTON IS DROPPED DOWN NEXT TO ADAM, AND BETHANY BEGINS STOMPING AWAY AT HIM!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT HERE COMES KELTON’S BRO! BRONSON IS HERE, AND HE KNOCKS BETHANY INTO THE BARRICADE! Bethany was caught off guard, BUT BRONSON TAKES THE CHANCE TO SEND BETHANY INTO THE TIMEKEEPER’S AREA!
Persephone: Bronson takes the opportunity to pull Kelton up and begin helping him to the ring. It’s just a shame the referee sucks and apparently forgot how to count. This match should be over by now.
Rich Russillo: The referee is just being lenient, and given how much is on the line, I can see why. Bronson rolls his teammate back into the ring before climbing back into the apron, and he tags himself back into the match!
Thadd Blazevich: Bronson drops off the apron, and he limps over to Adam before dragging him up, sending bro into the ring the same way he did Kelton! I think it’s for a very different reason, though!
Rich Russillo: Bronson climbs back onto the apron before beginning to climb up top, BUT DR. BETHANY BLUE IS BACK, AND SHE BEGINS GRABBING ONTO BRONSON’S BAD LEG! BETHANY TRYING TO HELP HER PARTNER OUT-
Rich Russillo: BUT BRONSON IS ABLE TO FIGHT BETHANY OFF! HE HITS HER HAND BEFORE KICKING BETHANY OFF OF HIM, AND NOW BRONSON FINISHES HIS CLIMB TO THE TOP ROPE! ADAM LUCAS IS STILL DOWN AFTER THAT FINAL ATONEMENT, AND NOW BRONSON DANIELS LOOKS TO CAPITALIZE!
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON IS LOCKED IN ON ADAM LUCAS, READY TO WIN THE EAW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!! BRONSON DIVES OFF THE TOP ROPE FOR A DIVING FLYING BRONSONS!!!!!
Persephone: RIGHT ONTO ADAM LUCAS’ KNEES!!!
Rich Russillo: OH NO!! ADAM WAS ABLE TO GET THE KNEES UP, AND BEINSON CRASHED RIGHT ONTO THEM!!! After everything that happened since the spear, including Bethany getting involved twice, it looks like Adam was given enough recovery time just to find that one counter! That was VERY unfortunate for Bronson!
Thadd Blazevich: Adam’s crawling away from Elysium’s corner, and dude, I think everyone’s hurting right about now. This kind of match is crazy. Everyone put their all into the Hardcore title, and now they have to fight for another Championship! Not only that, but it’s the World Championship, too!!
Persephone: I’m pretty annoyed the Hardcore Championship match wasn’t hardcore rules just because it’s a tag team match. For “Two Falls of Terror”, I feel like I’m the only one being terrorized.
Rich Russillo: Adam Lucas uses the ropes to pull himself up as Bronson approaches him, AND ADAM IS ABLE TO ELBOW BRONSON, FORCING BRONSON TO STUMBLE BACK! Adam steps forward, seemingly looking to potentially start another exchange with a forearm-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT INSTEAD HE GOES LOW, KICKING AT BRONSON’S BAD LEG!!! BRONSON DROPS DOWN TO HIS KNEES, AND ADAM STUMBLES INTO HIS CORNER, TAGGING BETHANY BACK INTO THE MATCH! THAT WASN’T COOL BRO, BUT IT WAS DEFINITELY SMART!
Rich Russillo: BETHANY IS IN, AND BRONSON TRIES TO GO AFTER HER- BUT SHE WAS ABLE TO EVADE HIS ATTACK THANKS TO ALL THAT DAMAGE HIS LEG HAS TAKEN! BETHANY NOW SWEEPING THE LEG, AND BETHANY GRABS BRONSON’S LEGS BEFORE TURNING HIM AROUND!
Thadd Blazevich: FRACTURED!!! BETHANY HAS THE FRACTURED SUBMISSION LOCKED IN, AND BRO, THAT’S NOT GOOD AT ALL IF ELYSIUM WANTS TO WIN THIS MATCH! BRONSON MIGHT JUST MISS OUT ON BECOMING A THREE-TIME WORLD CHAMP IN A SUBMISSION LIKE THIS!
Persephone: Good.
Rich Russillo: BRONSON IS UNABLE TO REACH OUT TO THE ROPES! HE’S GONNA HAVE TO EITHER FORCE HIS WAY OUT OF THIS SUBMISSION OR GIVE UP ON HIS CHANCES AT THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP! EITHER WAY, THIS CAN’T CONTINUE MUCH LONGER!
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON GRABS BETHANY BY THE LEG AND BEGINS PULLING AWAY AT IT, TRYING TO GET HER TO LOOSEN UP ON THE SUBMISSION A BIT! BRONSON IS THE BIGGER COMPETITOR, SO I THINK IT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE WORKING!
Rich Russillo: BRONSON IS ABLE TO TURN HIMSELF AROUND AFTER SLOWLY PULLING BETHANY OFF OF HIM, AND NOW HE FREES HIS GOOD LEG BEFORE KICKING AWAY AT BETHANY, GIVING BETHANY NO CHOICE BUT TO LET GO OF HIM! BRONSON PUSHES HIMSELF UP AS BETHANY STUMBLES BACK-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT ONCE HE GETS BACK UP, BETHANY JUMPS AT BRONSON FOR THE REMEDY!!!
Rich Russillo: BUT BRONSON COUNTERS IT!!! HE SHOVES BETHANY AWAY- BEFORE JUMPING AND DROPPING HER WITH THE GODBREAKER!!!! THE GODBREAKER CONNECTS ON DR. BETHANY BLUE, AND THAT MIGHT’VE DONE FURTHER DAMAGE TO HIS LEG, BUT I THINK IT WAS WORTH IT! BRONSON DROPS DOWN ON TOP OF BETHANY FOR THE COVER, THE FIRST COVER OF THE SECOND FALL!!!
OOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: AND DR. BETHANY BLUE IS ABLE TO GET THE SHOULDER UP, KEEPING ADAM LUCAS’ CHAMPIONSHIP REIGN ALIVE!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: That’s gotta be real disappointing bro, but luckily for Elysium, Jon Kelton has managed to finally get back up! Kelton drags Bethany into their corner before tagging Kelton back in, AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE’RE ABOUT TO SEE SOME TAG TEAM ACTION! JON KELTON LIFTS DR. BETHANY BLUE UP IN A FISHERMAN CARRY- AND NOW THERE’S BRONSON WITH THE SUPERKICK TO THE HEAD, WHICH KELTON FOLLOWS UP THE FISHERMAN BUSTER! AWESOME MOVE BRO, AND NOW THERE’S ANOTHER COVER!!!
OOOOOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Persephone: ADAM LUCAS JUST ENTERED THE RING AND SPEARED BRONSON ONTO KELTON AND BETHANY, UNFORTUNATELY BREAKING UP THE COVER AND STOPPING THE MATCH FROM ENDING!!!
Rich Russillo: Jon Kelton pushes himself up, and he grabs Adam before sending him back out of the ring! Bronson rolls out to the apron, and now Kelton goes back to Bethany, aiming to potentially end this one and win his FIRST World Championship! Jon Kelton begins to make his way back up to the top rope, and it looks like he may be taking a second shot at the move he was unable to deliver at the end of the first fall! Bethany is beginning to stir, and this could be it!
Thadd Blazevich: THE LAW OF EQUIVALENT EXCHANGE!!!
Rich Russillo: IT DOESN’T CONNECT!!!! BETHANY WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE WAY, BUT KELTON ROLLS BACK TO HIS FEET, PREVENTING WHAT COULD’VE BEEN A BAD LANDING! KELTON TURNS AND GOES AFTER BETHANY-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT BETHANY DELIVERS A DROP TOE HOLD, SENDING KELTON HEAD FIRST INTO THE MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE! BETHANY STUMBLES BACK- BUT SHE USES THAT TO RUN IN AND HIT KELTON WITH A BOOT TO THE BACK OF HIS HEAD! THAT WAS A NASTY MOVE FROM BETHANY, AND SHE KEEPS STOMPING AT HIM UNTIL THE REFEREE IS FORCED TO START COUNTING!
Persephone: Bethany finally backs up, but Bronson just used the opportunity to tag himself in.
Rich Russillo: You’re right, AND IN ALMOST ONE MOTION, BRONSON JUST JUMPED UP TO THE TOP ROPE BEFORE DIVING AT BETHANY, CONNECTING WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK!! BETHANY IS SENT NEARLY ALL THE WAY TO THE OPPOSITE CORNER, BUYING BOTH MEMBERS OF ELYSIUM SOME MUCH NEEDED TIME TO RECOVER!
Thadd Blazevich: You’re right bro, but it’s not just them! Adam Lucas made his way back onto the apron, and Bethany is trying to make her way over to him for the tag!
Rich Russillo: You’re right, SO BRONSON RUSHES IN TO TRY AND STOP BETHANY! HE GRABS BETHANY BEFORE PULLING HER UP, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HIS GOAL IS TO END THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, AS HE HAS HER IN POSITION FOR SAVAGE MODE!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BETH USES THE FREE HAND TO START REPEATEDLY PUNCHING AWAY AT BRONSON’S RIBS, THOUGH!!! BETHANY ISN’T EVEN GIVING BRO A CHANCE TO LIFT HER UP!! BRONSON IS FORCED TO LET GO OF HER- BUT HE RESPONDS BY DELIVERING A PUMP KICK, SENDING BETHANY BACKWARDS!!
Persephone: Great, now it’s Adam that tagged himself in.
Rich Russillo: Bethany charges back at Bronson- AND BRONSON DUCKS UNDER BETHANY’S STRIKE- BUT ADAM FOLLOWS UP WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION! BETHANY NOW FROM BEHIND DELIVERS A CHOP BLOCK TO THE BACK OF BRONSON’S BAD LEG, DROPPING HIM TO A KNEE!!! BRONSON IS IN A BAD WAY RIGHT NOW!
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON’S GETTING JUMPED, BRO! Dr. Bethany Blue is making her way to the top rope, and it looks like these two are about to hit a tag team move of their own on Bronson! This could be really bad, dude. ADAM LUCAS I LIFTING BRONSON UP INTO A POWERBOMB CARRY! DUDE, ARE WE ABOUT TO SEE AN ASSISTED VERSION OF LEVEL UP!?!?
Persephone: Hopefully. That’d probably end the match.
Rich Russillo: BETHANY IS UP TOP WHILE ADAM HAS BRONSON ON HIS SHOULDERS, AND NOW SHE-
(….)
(THUD!)
Persephone: :yikes: That was bad…
Rich Russillo: OH NO!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON DANIELS JUST JUMPED OFF OF ADAM’S SHOULDERS BEFORE PUSHING BETHANY OFF OF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE, AND THE BACK OF BETHANY’S HEAD JUST COLLIDED WITH THE BARRICADE!! DUDE, DID YOU HEAR THE SOUND OF THAT COLLISION?!!
Persephone: She should definitely, or at least hopefully be concussed after that. Either way, I think it’s pretty safe to say she’s out for the time being.
(Suddenly, it’s as if the match had just been stopped. Rather than worrying about the opponent in front of him, Adam Lucas’ attention is immediately directed to Dr. Bethany Blue, and a worried expression crosses his face as he quickly walks towards the ropes, checking only to see the motionless Hardcore Champion.)
Rich Russillo: BRONSON QUICKLY STUMBLES AWAY FROM THE CORNER, MEANWHILE ADAM LUCAS CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT HE’S SEEING!!! HE IMMEDIATELY STOPS AND LOOKS OVER AT HIS WIFE, NOT EVEN CONCERNED ABOUT THE MATCH RIGHT NOW AS THE HARDCORE CHAMPION MAY HAVE JUST BEEN WIPED OUT! ADAM LUCAS IS IN DISBELIEF, BUT BEYOND THAT IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S CONCERNED ABOUT THE WELL-BEING OF HIS WIFE! Adam Lucas doesn’t even know what to think right now-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT WAIT!!! ADAM NEEDS TO WATCH OUT, BECAUSE THIS MATCH IS NOT OVER-
Rich Russillo: ”MICKEY I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF”!!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: IT CONNECTS!!! IT CONNECTED, BRO!!!! ADAM WAS WORRIED ABOUT BETHANY, AND BRONSON CAPITALIZED ON THE OPPORTUNITY TO WIPE OUT THE EAW WORLD CHAMPION!!!! BRONSON JUST ELBOWED ADAM IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD, AND NOW IT’S ADAM THAT’S MOTIONLESS!!!!!
Rich Russillo: BRONSON IMMEDIATELY TURNS THE CHAMPION OVER, AND THAT’S IT, THAT’S GOTTA BE IT!!!! WE HAVE OURSELVES A NEW EAW WORLD CHAMPION, AND IT LOOKS LIKE BRONSON WILL FINALLY FIND HIMSELF SOME REDEMPTION AFTER HAVING HIS LAST WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP REIGN CUT SHORT!!!! VERY RARELY HAS THIS MOVE BEEN KICKED OUT OF, AND AFTER EVERYTHING THEY HAVE BEEN THROUGH TONIGHT, I DON’T THINK IT’S HAPPENING NOW! BRONSON HOOKS THE LEGS, TO BECOME A THREE-TIME WORLD CHAMPION!!!!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(………………….)
(Before the referee’s hand could hit the mat for the final time, the pinfall is suddenly broken up.)
Persephone: …..?
Rich Russillo: What…?
(The crowd almost goes completely silent, not sure what to think. Bronson Daniels slowly raises his head, seeing who was responsible for the pin being broken up, but with the fatigue he’s currently feeling, he doesn’t even have it in him to be angry right now. Instead he just sits up and sighs, dropping his head as he asks just one question.)
Bronson Daniels: (off-mic) What are you doing, man?
(Jon Kelton stands over the two Elitists, looking at Bronson Daniels with an expression that’s almost difficult to read.)
Jon Kelton: (off-mic) It’s my turn, Bronson.
(Bronson doesn’t say anything, just shaking his head. While he knew only one of them could leave this match with the World Championship, and that the stakes increased once they failed to capture the Hardcore Championship, everyone in attendance appears to be shocked by Jon Kelton’s actions. The referee is forcing Kelton to back off and exit the ring due to not being the legal competitor, but as Bronson pushes himself back up, he can’t help but stare at his tag team partner, still processing what just happened. However, as he slowly begins to walk towards Kelton…)
Rich Russillo: ADAM LUCAS JUST ROLLED BRONSON UP!!!!
OOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRR-
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON KICKS OUT, BUT I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW AFTER WHAT WE JUST SAW! WHAT THE HELL’S GOING ON, BRO!?
Rich Russillo: JON KELTON JUST TURNED ON HIS OWN PARTNER FOR THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, BUT WHAT NOW!?!? BRONSON WOULD STILL HAVE TO TAG HIM IN FOR KELTON TO WIN THE TITLE, IS KELTON JUST GOING TO LET BRONSON GO AT IT ALONE!?
Thadd Blazevich: I GUESS SO! BOTH MEN GET BACK UP, AND BRONSON KICKS ADAM IN THE MIDSECTION BEFORE RAISING A KNEE TO HIS FACE! BRONSON HAS TO BE PISSED OFF LIKE HE’S NEVER BEEN BEFORE AFTER WHAT WE JUST SAW! HE HAD THE MATCH WON! BRONSON GRABS ADAM AND SENDS HIM INTO THE NOW EMPTY CORNER, COMPLETE OPPOSITE FROM WHERE KELTON IS, BEFORE RUNNING IN!
Rich Russillo: THAT HURT LEG IS STILL BOTHERING BRONSON THOUGH, AND THANKS TO THAT, ADAM WAS ABLE TO GET A BOOT UP AND FORCE BRONSON AWAY FROM HIM! BRONSON IS AT A SEVERE DISADVANTAGE WITH BOTH THAT HURT LEG AND A TEAMMATE WHO SEEMINGLY WON’T EVEN LET HIM WIN, BUT HE’S STILL FIGHTING! ADAM RUNS IN THOUGH, LOOKING TO DROP BRONSON WITH A BIG BOOT!
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON DUCKS UNDER IT, BUT ONLY BARELY!!! BRONSON TURNS AND CATCHES ADAM WITH A FOREARM SMASH, BUT ADAM RESPONDS BY KNEEING BRONSON IN THE MIDSECTION! BRONSON RESPONDS TO THAT WITH AN UPPERCUT, AND NOW ADAM TURNS AND HITS BRONSON WITH THE DISCUS PUNCH! THESE TWO ARE GOING BACK AND FORTH ONE LAST TIME, WITH WHAT MIGHT BE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE LEFT, AND AT THIS POINT, NEITHER OF ‘EM HAVE TEAMMATES BACKING THEM UP!
Persephone: I guess that’s true. Bethany’s CTE is probably flaring up after hitting the barricade like that, and Kelton pretty much just betrayed Bronson.
Rich Russillo: BRONSON CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER ROUNDHOUSE KICK, AND ADAM LUCAS DROPS DOWN TO A KNEE!!! Bronson backs up into the corner, and he checks on his leg one more time, trying to shake off the pain for this one last move! I think I have an idea of what that move is, and I have to say, it’s not often that we see it have to be hit twice in the same match!
Thadd Blazevich: That’s right, but it looks like this might be an exception! BRONSON DANIELS RUSHES IN, FOR MICKEY I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF, ONE LAST TIME!!!
Persephone: BUT BRONSON’S STILL SLUGGISH BECAUSE OF THAT LEG! ADAM LUCAS WAS ABLE TO PUSH HIMSELF BACK UP JUST BEFORE BRONSON COULD GET TO HIM, POPPING HIM UP!
Rich Russillo: LEVEL UP!!!!!
Thadd Blazevich: OH, NO!!! LEVEL UP CONNECTS, AND ADAM WASTES NO TIME ROLLING BRONSON BACK TO A KNEE! ADAM’S NOT CONTENT WITH JUST ONE, HE’S TRYING TO PUT A DEFINITIVE END TO THIS! ADAM LUCAS SENDS BRONSON DANIELS INTO THE ROPES, BEFORE CATCHING BRO WITH A SECOND LEVEL UP!!!!
Rich Russillo: THAT’S IT!!! BRONSON DANIELS IS DONE!!!! ADAM LUCAS COLLAPSES ON TOP OF HIM FOR THE COVER, KNOWING THAT BRONSON’S OWN TEAMMATE PLAYED A PART IN THIS HAPPENING!!!!!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Bella Braxton: Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue have won the second fall! Therefore… STILLLLLLLL YOUR EAW WORLD CHAMPION….. AAAAAAAADDDDDAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMM LLLLLLLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!
(The fans are in disbelief after what just happened, but as ‘Everybody Knows (Unstoppable)’ eventually begins to play once more, they finally begin to process the events that took place. Loud boos begin to fill the crowd, but that doesn’t matter to the two Champions. Adam Lucas takes the EAW World Championship and Hardcore Championship from the referee, before rolling out of the ring, helping up Dr. Bethany Blue who had just begun to stir after the crash into the barricade.)
Rich Russillo: Wow. Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue have both successfully retained their Championships, but I’m not even sure if it feels appropriate to talk about this result knowing how it came about.
Thadd Blazevich: I know, dude. It feels wrong congratulating them despite this being an amazing match, because Jon Kelton turned on Bronson Daniels in order for this to happen. Seriously, what’s wrong with that dude?
Persephone: Clearly he got tired of being the guy who’s been around forever yet can’t win a World Championship. It’s kinda crazy turning on your partner after you lost the Hardcore Championship for your team, but it’s pretty obvious what he’s thinking.
(As Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue slowly walks up the ramp, taking in the hostile reaction from the crowd, Bronson Daniels sits up. He doesn’t even know what to think, but as he uses the ropes to slowly pull himself up, he finally turns towards Jon Kelton, who is now inside of the ring. There’s a look of disgust on Bronson’s face as he stares at him, and it takes him a moment before he can actually say anything.)
Bronson Daniels: (off-mic) We had it.
Jon Kelton: (off-mic) You had it, but I didn’t.
(Bronson can’t even believe what he’s hearing. He’s hurt knowing that Jon Kelton of all people is doing this, but beyond that he’s furious, pissed off knowing that he was less than a second away from being World Champion again, only to have it taken away like this. Bronson just shoves Kelton away, looking to exit the ring and just forget about the whole thing. However, before Bronson could leave the ring, Kelton grabs him by the wrist, pulling Bronson back.)
Rich Russillo: WOAH!
Thadd Blazevich: KELTON JUST TRIED TO STOP BRONSON FROM LEAVING THE RING, AND IN RETURN BRONSON JUST HIT BRO IN THE JAW WITH A FOREARM, ALMOST DROPPING KELTON!
Persephone: FINALLY!
Rich Russillo: THESE TWO HAVE BEEN THROUGH A LOT, BUT CLEARLY A LINE HAS BEEN CROSSED, AND BRONSON IS DONE! KELTON HOLDS HIS JAW- BEFORE FINALLY THE BRAWL BEGINS! THE TWO MEN WHO CONSIDERED THEMSELVES BROTHERS ARE NOW GOING AT IT, AND IT LOOKS LIKE AFTER ALL THIS TIME, ELYSIUM HAS ACTUALLY IMPLODED!!!
Thadd Blazevich: BRONSON AND KELTON ARE FIGHTING IN THE RING, AND DUDE, I DON’T THINK THEY’RE GONNA BE ABLE TO MAKE UP AFTER THIS THE SAME WAY THEY WERE ABLE TO BACK AT REASONABLE DOUBT!
Rich Russillo: BRONSON DANIELS AND JON KELTON ARE JUST THROWING EVERYTHING AT EACH OTHER, PUNCHES AND ELBOWS BEING TRADED ON BOTH SIDES AS EVERYTHING HAS SEEMINGLY COME CRASHING DOWN FOR ELYSIUM! I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S COME TO THIS!
(As the two members of Elysium continue to fight, the camera pans to Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue. They’ve stopped at the stage, choosing to watch as their two opponents are now fighting each other, just moments after facing them for their Championships. Seeing this, grins appear on the faces of both Adam and Bethany. However, they are not the only ones watching.)
(Backstage, Drake Armstrong, Kai Rabeaux and Hans Grayson can be seen ahead of War Games. While all three men may have their own opinions on what has just occurred, it’s Drake Armstrong whose feelings are clearest, as he is beyond pleased. Much like the two Champions, there is a wide grin on his face, as the Captain of team Voltage is barely able to contain his laughter.)
(Inside of the ring Kelton and Bronson continue to fight, until finally, Kelton goes for that hurt leg that has been targeted throughout the match, kicking it out from under Bronson so that he’s forced to drop to a knee.)
Rich Russillo: Jon Kelton has gained the upper hand over Bronson, AND NOW HE SENDS BRONSON INTO THE ROPES-
Thadd Blazevich: BUT AS BRONSON BOUNCES OFF OF THEM, HE JUMPS AT KELTON WITH “MICKEY I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF”!!!!!! BRONSON JUST LAID OUT JON KELTON WITH THE SWINGING BACK ELBOW, THE SAME ONE THAT NEARLY WON HIM THE EAW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP JUST A FEW MOMENTS AGO!!!!
(Bronson Daniels drops down to a knee on top of Jon Kelton, and he raises his arm, seemingly considering inflicting even more damage with forearm smashes to the face, knowing that Kelton is in no condition to protect himself from them. It is something he has only ever considered in heated feuds against opponents he despised. However, he reluctantly stops himself this time, getting back to his feet as he can only say a few words to his former teammate.)
Bronson Daniels: (off-mic) Fuck you, man.
(At this point, there is nothing the commentary team can say about what they have just seen. Everyone in attendance just watches as Bronson Daniels slowly begins to limp away from Kelton and out of the ring, including the two Champions on the stage. Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue appear to have enjoyed every second of what they just watched. They raise their Championships, and the two are just laughing as Bronson Daniels slowly makes his way down to ringside with a nearly defeated expression on his face, one that he’s never had before. With this, the camera begins to fade out.)
(The graphic for the final match of the night is shown.)
Bella Braxton: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS THE BRAND WARFARE MATCH! HERE ARE THE RULES, AN ELIMINATION CAN OCCUR BY PINFALL, SUBMISSION, COUNTOUT OR DISQUALIFICATION! ONCE TWO ENTIRE TEAMS HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED, THE ELITISTS THAT REMAIN WILL BE DECLARED THE WINNERS AND SOLE SURVIVORS!
(The crowd cheers in anticipation.)
Bella Braxton: INTRODUCING FIRST! REPRESENTING SHOWDOWN! ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY SILAS MASON AND LUNA! DONOVAN DUKE! DARYL KINKADE! XANDER PAYNE! AKARI KIYOKO AND DAMIEN KUTCHER… SHOWTIME!
(“Enemy” by From Ashes to New starts to play throughout the arena. Donovan Duke walks out, he is accompanied by Silas Mason. Right after him is Xander Payne. Then you see Luna with SHOWTIME! Finally, Daryl Kinkade walks out last.)
Stew-O: And here we have Team Showdown! They are led by Donovan Duke and though Daryl Kinkade is also a Team Captain, it seems like he is towing the back of the line!
Gavin Kirkland: Showdown is in good hands with Silas Mason and Donovan Duke, you want to talk about a winner? Here is one right here! Showdown for the win!
Persephone: What a bunch of losers.
(Team Showdown makes their way to the ring, once inside, Silas talks to Donovan, SHOWTIME, and Xander Payne. Daryl Kinkade wants nothing to do with them as they prepare themselves. The theme fades and is replaced by ‘I2I’ by Magnolia Park as the crowd cheers.)
Bella Braxton: NEXT IS TEAM DYNASTY! FIRST RAVEN ROBERTS AND REX MCALLISTER, FIRE AND ICE! NEXT “THE ACE” LIMMY MONAGHAN! ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY AHREN FOURNIER, EFFY MCAVOY! AND THE LAST MEMBER “THE SUPERNOVA” MILLI BANKS!
(As the crowd cheers, Fire and Ice walk out leading their team of Limmy Monaghan, Effy McAvoy with Ahren Fournier, and then Milli Banks in the rear. They get a big reaction as they approach the ringside area and get to the ring, all stepping in.)
Steve-O: I know that Team Dynasty is ready for Brand Warfare. They are a well oiled machine and look to really bring this home for Dynasty!
Gavin Kirkland: A lot of heavy hitters in there, but Team Showdown has the killer instinct and will prove to be too much!
Persephone: This team sucks too, a bunch of losers especially Rex and Raven.
(As Team Dynasty prepares, their theme is replaced by ‘Ambitionz az a Ridah’ by Tupac starts to play as the crowd erupts in the air and stands up. TLA walks out with a T-Shirt that says “Fuck ICE” on it and points right up to the suites where President Trump is sitting in and flips him off getting the crowd to go bananas.)
Bella Braxton: AND THE FINAL TEAM….. TEAM VOLTAGE! LED TO THE RING BY TLA! ALONG WITH JAY JERRY JOHNSON! MIKU SAKAI! CHRIS ELITE! AND CODY MAVERICK!!!!
(The cheers continue as TLA walks down to the ring. He is followed by Jay Jerry Johnson, Miku Sakai and her sister, Chris Elite and finally last is Cody Maverick. Team Voltage looks ready as they get in the ring.)
Persephone: Finally! Some winners! And here is the winning team!
Stew-O: A very impressive team and one that I know is looking to really barrel down in this match. All three teams are stacked and look ready!
Gavin Kirkland: Here we go with the Main Event!
(All three teams are in the ring, as the referee checks for all of them to get to their corners, and then he signals for the bell and the start of the match.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: AND BRAND WARFARE HAS OFFICIALLY STARTED! WOOOOOOOO, LET’S GO SHOWDOOOOWNNNNN!
Persephone: Oh, this is going to be soooooooooo fuuuuuunnnnnn…
Gavin Kirkland: I know, right?!
Persephone: …
Stew-O: The team has had their time to decide who goes out first. The Team Voltage Captain himself Cody Maverick takes the first step, followed by the Dynasty Co-Captain Rex McAllister! The Captains stepping up to start off the match for their teams! And uh, it seems that Showdown is taking a little bit longer than usual, but Daryl and Donovan seem to come to an agreement- As Showdown’s Akari Kiyoko steps forward as well!
Gavin Kirkland: AND AKARI SUDDENLY TURNS TOWARDS CODY! TRYING TO HIT HIM RIGHT IN THE CHEST WITH AN OUT OF NOWHERE SHOTGUN DROPKICK!
Stew-O: CODY MOVES OUT OF THE WAY AND AVOIDS IT! Akari started off Brand Warfare’s match last year the exact same way, going straight for Cody, and this time he was able to scout it out!
Persephone: But it seems that Akari’s skull isn’t completely empty! He slides across the mat to cushion his fall! And turns back, ready to fight the equally annoying Cody Maverick!
Gavin Kirkland: THE T-REX WITH A JUMPING HIGH KNEE RIGHT ACROSS AKARI’S FACE! Akari falls against the ropes here!
Persephone: Why did you call him- nope, nope, I am not relapsing, he deserved the stupid name. Fuck him and fuck you too. Good thing then that this snake turns around and he ends up getting hit right across the head with a Discus Punch from Cody Maverick! If any of the Voltage Team ends up eliminating that SNAKE I will talk less shit about you next week!
Stew-O: AND REX FALLS ONTO AKARI’S CLUTCHES AFTER THAT PUNCH FROM CODY! A HUGE INVERTED EXPLODER SUPLEX SENDS REX CHEST FIRST AGAINST THE CORNER RIGHT BEHIND HIM! Akari rises up in response, Cody rushing right after him- AKARI CATCHES CODY WITH A BELLY TO BELLY AND THEN SENDS HIM FLYING AGAINST THE FALLEN REX MCALLISTER!
Gavin Kirkland: There we go, baby! THE LEGACY GAME, AKARI! Akari quickly gets up and then pulls Cody out of the corner here! He tries to lift him up here for that Rolling Death Valley Driver! Cody struggles hard in Akari’s grasp and then is able to push himself off his shoulders! He falls right behind him and then tries to hit Akari right across the back of the head with a Forearm Smash!
Stew-O: Akari ducks down from the Forearm Smash! He tries to hit a Spinning Heel Kick right across Cody’s jaw but Cody ends up ducking down himself too! He lifts Akari up into a Fireman’s Carry! Akari struggles and Cody responds by hitting various back elbows onto his face, trying to get him to stop struggling!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT HERE COMES REX FROM BEHIND, GRABBING CODY! HE STARTS TO LIFT HIM UP WITH AKARI ON HIS SHOULDERS! HUH?!
Persephone: HE HITS THE OLYMPIC SLAM ONTO CODY AND THAT IDIOT IN HIS SHOULDERS FALLS ALONGSIDE HIM! Oh my gawd, you have crazy strength for your body, we know, stop bragging! The ego of this guy!
Stew-O: Rex working quickly and dragging Cody along with him! He goes towards the Team Dynasty corner!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: AND HE TAGS IN THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE, RAVEN ROBERTS!
Persephone: And here this bitch comes!
Stew-O: Rex pulling in Cody here- POWERSLAM RIGHT ONTO THE MAT! Raven turning over in response- WITH A BEAUTIFUL STANDING MOONSAULT! Raven quickly covers the Voltage Team Captain!
Referee: ONEEEEE!
Referee: TWO-
Gavin Kirkland: And barely a two count here! Okay, my excitement has truly gone up now that we are away from the sausage party here! Raven moves quickly here and then she signals here, trying to go for a huge move! AND THAT BEAUTIFUL BIRD DOESN’T WASTE TIME! SHE TRIES TO GO FOR THE “HUNTRESS BOMB!!!”
Persephone: Of course this dumb bitch isn’t able to hit it, Cody ends up elbowing her right on top of her head! Now, if you kill this one as well, you get TWO weeks of me not talking trash about you on your commentary! Cody ends up pushing Raven towards the ropes, she bounces off them- and now what is this- WHY IS HE DOING IT TOO?! HE GOES FOR THE “DEEP END” SPINEBUSTER!
Stew-O: AS RAVEN IS ABLE TO REVERSE IT INSTEAD WITH AN ARMDRAG, SENDING CODY TOWARDS THE ROPES HERE!
Gavin Kirkland: AKARI OUT OF NOWHERE! SUPERKICK RIGHT AT RAVEN’S HEAD! He grabs onto her hand and then pulls her in- TRYING TO GO FOR THE URANAGE BACKBREAKER!
Stew-O: Akari tries to lift her up! Elbow to the side of Akari’s head! He drops her and Raven FOLLOWS it up with a huge kick to Akari’s stomach! Knee to the chest to lift him up-
Persephone: AND THAT CRAZY BASTARD OF CODY SUDDENLY LUNGES BACKWARDS!!! A DOUBLE “SIN CITY STUNNER”?!
Stew-O: RAVEN AND AKARI BOTH END UP CATCHING HIM BY HIS LEGS RIGHT BEFORE HE CAN BRING THEM DOWN! The two of them turn towards each other and nod in response- AND WITH A DOUBLE BACKBREAKER THEY BRING THE TEAM VOLTAGE CAPTAIN DOWN!
Persephone: Our captain is a clown.
Stew-O: He simply saw an opportunity to take two of his opponents down as soon as he could and it didn’t work out, it happens. But what is happening right now- IS AKARI IRISH WHIPPING RAVEN TOWARDS HIS TEAM’S CORNER!
Gavin Kirkland: Raven smacks hard back first! Akari rushes forward trying to go for a roundhouse, Raven rolls through and under, but Akari reaches his corner!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: AND HE TAGS IN HIS SHOWTIME PARTNER! DAMIEN KUTCHER IS NOW INSIDE! THE TWO OF THEM MOVE FORWARD! Raven tries to hit them down with a double clothesline but they duck down right on time and Raven smashes against the corner here, the both of them turning and running back- DAMIEN WITH A RUNNING FOREARM SMASH!
Gavin Kirkland: AND AKARI FINISHING IT OFF WITH A LEG LARIAT WHILE RAVEN WAS IN THE CORNER! Akari goes through the ropes and Damien quickly covers Raven! Can they get rid of one of the Dynasty captains just like that?!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Persephone: I hate her so much but even I know she is not going down like this, Raven kicks out!
Stew-O: Damien moves quickly and makes sure to not let Raven get away! He pushes her back onto the corner and then he starts throwing a flurry of strikes directly towards her gut and the rest of her body, further weakening her down.
Gavin Kirkland: Hit them with the one two, Damien! Actually that’s more than two- okay, he grabs onto her arm and then he Irish whips her out of there! Damien moves quickly and then chases right after her!
Stew-O: AS RAVEN GETS HIT RIGHT ACROSS THE HEAD WITH A LARIAT FROM CODY!
Persephone: The stupid bitch ducks down!
Gavin Kirkland: AND IT HITS DAMIEN RIGHT ACROSS THE HEAD INSTEAD! One of our team members goes down! Raven turns back and then she tries to rush at Cody!
Stew-O: Cody ducks right down and is able to avoid the attack, popping Raven right over him!
Gavin Kirkland: But the beautiful bird is able to improvise in the air- AND SHE HITS A SPLASH RIGHT DOWN ONTO DAMIEN!
Persephone: Cody moves forward to his corner!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: MIKU SAKAI TAGS HERSELF IN! She goes through the ropes, Raven getting up! The two lock gazes! Buckle up now!
Gavin Kirkland: BEFORE THEY CLASH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING, THROWING LEFTS AND RIGHTS AT EACH OTHERS HEADS WITH EVERYTHING THEY HAVE! These ladies have had a crazy share of battles earlier in the year and the animosity has not dwindled ever since!
Persephone: TEAR HER HAIR OUT, MIKU!
Stew-O: Miku ducks down the forearm from Raven, and then she kicks her on the side, grabbing her head and trying to go for a Running Bulldog here! But Raven ends up lifting her up in a Back Suplex position, before beginning to spin her around wildly!
Gavin Kirkland: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! MY BEAUTIFUL BIRD SHOWING OFF HER STRENGTH! She finishes spinning around, leaving Miku dizzy as heck before suddenly throwing her forward!
Stew-O: RIGHT INTO DAMIEN’S HANDS, BEFORE SLAMMING MIKU DOWN WITH A HUGE POWERSLAM!
Persephone: AND THAT DUMB BIRD JUMPS ONTO DAMIEN OUT OF NOWHERE, BEFORE TAKING HIM DOWN WITH A HEADSCISSORS!
Stew-O: Damien gets sent right towards his corner from the headscissors, grabbing onto his head, he tries to push himself to continue!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: BUT XANDER PAYNE TAGS HIMSELF IN! Damien turns in slight confusion at that but he ends up just keeping it to himself and he goes through the ropes. RAVEN TRIES TO RUN RIGHT AT HIM AND SHE PAYS THE PRICE! AS HE POPS HER UP RIGHT ONTO HIS SHOULDERS AND TRANSITIONS IT INTO A DEATH VALLEY DRIVER!
Persephone: This dumb fuck has suddenly turned into a cake with wheels, he is starting off on fire! And as Miku tries to sit up, HE GOES AND HITS HER DOWN HARD WITH A CROSSBODY AS HE PINS HER! FUCK, SHE IS A TWIG COMPARED TO HIM!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Stew-O: But there is enough space for Miku to raise her shoulder up on time!
Persephone: Phew!
Gavin Kirkland: I see you are getting invested :mjgrin:
Persephone: Yes, I don’t want any of these bozos to get eliminated so that they can eliminate the stupid bird and her snake of a boyfriend!
Stew-O: Xander trying to quickly position himself with Miku here- AND WITH A HUGE PULL! HE TRIES TO LIFT HER UP FOR THAT SAITO SUPLEX! THE “DAWNBREAKER!”
Gavin Kirkland: “CAT SCRATCH FEVER!!!” MIKU IS ABLE TO MOVE HER HANDS FAST ENOUGH TO CLAW AT XANDER’S EYES AND MAKE HIM DROP HER! Xander lets go and Miku quickly rushes towards the ropes here! Jump onto the second one!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: JUST AS CHRIS ENDS UP TAGGING HIMSELF WHILE MIKU IS ON THE ROPES! MIKU TAKES DOWN XANDER WITH A SPRINGBOARD FOREARM!
Persephone: AND THEN BALDY COMES HERE FROM THE SKY TAKING RAVEN DOWN WITH A SPRINGBOARD CLOTHESLINE! Before rushing forward towards the ropes here! SPRINGBOARD MOONSAULT FROM CHRIS DOWN ONTO XANDER! All while Miku rolls back out! What the hell, since when did they plan to do actual teamwork?!
Stew-O: Miku looked kind of annoyed when she left but I think so far they are just tolerating each other. But the Dynasty team so far has shown the most teamwork in my unbiased opinion :mjgrin: And you will see quickly here! Raven turns and sees her team reaching out their hands, and Raven quickly goes to grant their request all while Chris is wearing Xander down with strikes while he is down!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: AND THE EVER CREEPY BUT INCREDIBLY PRETTY EFFY MCAVOY ENTERS THE SCENE! She goes right behind while Chris is distracted! AND TRIES TO JUMP ONTO HIS BACK! CRUCIFIX DRIVER SLAMS HIM DOWN ONTO THE MAT!
Stew-O: Xander tries to rise up slowly here after that Moonsault, Effy rushing here towards the corner as fast as she can, jumping onto the second rope and then turning quickly, with Xander in her sights! SHE TRIES TO GO FOR A DOUBLE FOOTSTOMP FROM THE SECOND ROPE ONTO HIS BACK!
Gavin Kirkland: Xander is able to roll out of the way right in time before Effy can hit the stomp on his back! She lands on her feet!
Persephone: BALDY COMES OUT OF NOWHERE TO HIT EFFY RIGHT IN THE JAW WITH A SUPERKICK!
Stew-O: EFFY LEANS BACKWARDS AND AVOIDS IT IN TIME, INCREDIBLE MATRIX DODGE FROM HER! Chris ends up stumbling due to the miss- STRAIGHT INTO A “LA BOMBE BLEU!” BLUE THUNDER BOMB FROM XANDER PAYNEEEEEEE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Xander quickly pushes himself up and pulls Chris along to his feet, throwing him towards the ropes! We all know this set-up! AS HE POPS HIM RIGHT UP! THE “LAST SEDATION!!!”
Stew-O: CHRIS FALLS ONTO XANDER’S SHOULDERS AND REVERSES THE POWERBOMB INTO A HURRICANRANA! REFEREE DROPS DOWN!
Referee: ONEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: XANDER KICKS CHRIS OFF HIM! EFFY COMES OUT OF NOWHERE AND JUMPS ONTO CHRIS, WRAPPING HER LEGS AROUND HIM- AND PULLING HIM DOWN FOR A WHEELBARROW ROLL-UP!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Stew-O: CHRIS KICKS RIGHT OUT AND PUSHES EFFY OFF OF HIM! Effy then turns over right towards Xander, as he grabs her- AND THEN PULLS HER DOWN INTO A SMALL PACKAGE ROLL-UP!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: EFFY KICKS RIGHT OUT! THE TWO OF THEM SCURRY UP, CHRIS RUSHING FORWARD!
Stew-O: AND THE THREE STAND APART WITH THEIR GUARDS UP! Most of the crowd rising up to their feet and beginning to clap after that sequence of moves that they have seen from all three! Chris and Xander’s expressions not moving an inch all while Effy laughs to herself in response!
Persephone: These fucking aurafarmers.
Gavin Kirkland: The three of them are now taking some steps back, figuring out right now what is the next move they want to do here as Xander backs away-
(TAG!)
Stew-O: AND DARYL KINKADE TAGS HIMSELF IN!
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) They all keep switching out so they can all keep their energies intact, mate. Gotta do the same.
Xander Payne: (off-mic) …Whatever you say.
Stew-O: And then Xander gets back in his team’s corner.
Persephone: Why does he have that expression? That fat fuck already tagged himself in without asking, this hypocrite!
Stew-O: Even I don’t know how Xander’s mind works sometimes. Now with Daryl in the mix, Effy is definitely re-considering tagging out, Chris still ready to fight, but he turns slowly… and sees Jay reaching out a hand!
Gavin Kirkland: Chris looks at him in a side-eyed manner but knowing that is the man that scouted him out in the first place…
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: HE SHOWS TRUST! JAY JERRY JOHNSON IS INSIDE!
Persephone: Stalker girl seeing the two teams do the same strategy now, she turns and sees one of her teammates reaching out! And she lets them in!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: AS LIMMY MONAGHAN NOW TAKES THE RING!

Persephone: I want to die.
Gavin Kirkland: YOU KNOW HOW LONG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS? MY TRUEST OF GOATS! MY GENUINE ACE! LIMOMMY HIMSELF! HE HAS FINALLY BLESSED A MATCH I CAN COMMENTATE! HOW MUCH I HAVE MISSED HIM!!!
Stew-O: …Okay then. Uh- Limmy, Jay, Daryl! The three men now stand together in the same ring, ready to go and ready to fight!
Gavin Kirkland: DARYL TURNS TOWARDS JAY AND RUNS FORWARD! “BOW DOWN TO THE KINK” OUT OF NOWHERE!!!
Stew-O: JAY DUCKS DOWN THE SWINGING ELBOW IN TIME AND HE HOISTS DARYL UP IN HIS SHOULDERS, MOVING QUICKLY TO TRY AND DROP HIM DOWN! “HEAVEN’S FEEL!!!!”
Gavin Kirkland: “DIABLE JAMBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!” HOW MUCH I HAVE MISSED SAYING THAT!!!!
Persephone: THE STUPID IDIOT OF JAY JARRY JAYSON LETS DARYL ESCAPE OFF HIS SHOULDERS AND HE TURNS TO AVOID THE KNEE HITTING HIS FACE! Limmy bounces off the ropes and turns!
Stew-O: Jay turns and jumps onto Limmy, pulling him down with that Wheelbarrow Roll- STRAIGHT INTO AN EUROPEAN CLUTCH! JAY’S GOT THE PIN!
Referee: ONEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THR-
Gavin Kirkland: MY ACE PUSHES JAY’S LEGS AWAY AND KICKS OUT! Jay keeps grasp onto Limmy’s wrists here!
Stew-O: AND HERE COMES DARYL KINKADE! RUNNING SHOOTING STAR PRESS DIRECTLY ONTO JAY! Jay ends up letting go of Limmy here! Limmy is able to break free and he moves, grabbing onto Daryl and then moving to throw him out of the ring!
Persephone: The Flying Brit ends up reversing it, he pulls off a Handspring!
Gavin Kirkland: CAUGHT BY MY ACE! GERMAN SUPLEX!
Stew-O: DARYL FLIPS OUT OF IT AND LANDS ON HIS FEET! He backs away towards the corner here and then he gets some distance, before rushing forward back at Limmy! SHOTGUN DROPKICK!
Gavin Kirkland: LEAPED OVER WITH BEAUTIFUL GRACE! WITH LIMMY DELIVERING A HARD DOUBLE FOOTSTOMP ONTO DARYL’S CHEST! THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT! Limmy drops down into a seated position-
Stew-O: PENALTY KICK RIGHT ACROSS LIMMY’S CHEST! Jay quickly tries to drop onto him, grabbing onto his arm to try and go for a quick wristlock here!
Gavin Kirkland: Limommy is able to shift his weight! Reversing it into a quick roll-up!
Referee: ONEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOO!!
Stew-O: Jay lets go of Limmy’s arm and he quickly kicks out! He pushes him away and rolls up to his feet! Limmy trying to go for a Jumping Tornado DDT but Jay pushes him away for a second time to avoid it!
Gavin Kirkland: My Ace is able to bounce off the ropes and come back! Jay tries to hit him across the chest with a kick but he ducks and slides down! He rises up and goes to bounce off the ropes!
Stew-O: Just as Jay rushes towards the ropes right in front of him! They are going to go for a collision!
Persephone: THE FLYING BRIT MEETS THEM RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE!
Stew-O: AND DARYL PULLS OFF A HUGE DOUBLE RUNNING SPANISH FLY! OH MY GOD!!! AN INCREDIBLE SHOW OF ATHLETICISM! MANY FANS ARE ON THEIR FEET NOW AFTER DARYL TOOK BOTH JAY AND LIMMY DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: THAT DAMN BRIT- Oh wait, he is in the Showdown team. Uh- woohoo, I guess! He is able to roll away and get some time to heal up especially after my Ace stomped his chest!
Stew-O: But Jay and Limmy are able to move too, they see now their teammates reaching out to them! They decide to follow through and then retreat for now to save up that energy! Daryl is too far to get to them! AS THE TWO OF THEM JUMP!
(TAG!)
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: TLA IS IN!
Stew-O: AND MILLI BANKS IS IN AS WELL!
Persephone: The whole crowd just explodes in cheers as the two get in! They aren’t that good now, come on!
Stew-O: Two of the most talented and beloved people in the EAW universe now step into a staredown, TLA with a grin on his face and Milli with a confident smile, going back to a few months when they fought for the Answers World Championship in that Fatal Four Way!
Gavin Kirkland: Daryl then rises up, ready to keep going-
(TAG!)
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) Huh?
Donovan Duke: (off-mic) Out of the way!
Stew-O: What the?! Donovan tags himself in and then suddenly enters the ring to the confusion of Daryl! HE PUSHES BOTH TLA AND MILLI AWAY AND POSES TOWARDS THE CROWD, TAKING THE SPOTLIGHT FOR HIMSELF!
Crowd: ## BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Gavin Kirkland: THAT’S MY SILAS WORLD LEADER!
Stew-O: The gall on this man! But while he is enjoying the reaction of the crowd, TLA and Milli turn back towards each other… and nod at the same time!
Persephone: THEY GRAB DONOVAN BY HIS HAIR AND SLAM HIM ONTO THE MAT, AND THE TWO BEGIN TO STOMP THE HELL OUT OF HIM! LMAO!
Gavin Kirkland: HEY HEY HEY! WHAT IS THIS?!
Stew-O: It seems the bond of the Alliance against Silas World is stronger than of any brand, as both TLA and Milli are teaming up now to beat Donovan down! They beat him down with every strike that they can throw while he is like that!
Gavin Kirkland: REF! REF! THEY ARE DOING CROSS-TEAMING, STOP THIS!
Stew-O: That is not against the rules, my friend! TLA holds Donovan up and now Milli starts kneeing him in the gut, slapping him across the face and finally backing up here… BEFORE RUSHING TOWARDS DONOVAN WITH A SUPERKICK!
Persephone: THE MIDGET DUCKS DOWN AND MILLI SUPERKICKS TLA INSTEAD!
Stew-O: No! Milli stopped herself right before hitting TLA, the both of them turn and they already see Donovan rushing out of there- AND JUST TAGGING IN XANDER!
(TAG!)
Persephone: Coward.
Gavin Kirkland: Tactical retreat, Persephone! The crowd can boo all they want, but my leader was not fighting a two versus one!
Stew-O: But that sudden retreat seemingly just made Xander angrier than before at his captains, either way, he goes through the ropes all while Donovan laughs at TLA and Milli due to getting away from them.
Persephone: Miss Depression seemingly pushes through it and decides to just focus then on that fat fuck, rushing at him- BUT HE TRIES TO HIT HER DOWN WITH A LARIAT!
Stew-O: Milli ducks right down and avoids the lariat in time! TLA runs at Xander to go for a sudden back elbow but Xander is able to sidestep it in time as well! BELL CLAP RIGHT OVER TLA’S HEAD! TLA gets slightly disoriented as suddenly Xander tries to lift him up here for an inverted Ushigoroshi!
Gavin Kirkland: THE PANTHER STRUGGLES IN HIS GRASP THOUGH AND HE LANDS RIGHT BEHIND HIM! GERMAN SUPLEX SENDS XANDER BACK FIRST AGAINST THE CORNER!
Persephone: All while Miss Depression runs while that fat fuck is seated in the corner! SHE TRIES TO HIT HIM RIGHT IN THE FACE WITH A DROPKICK!
Stew-O: XANDER MOVES OUT OF THE WAY IN TIME AND MILLI CRASHES AGAINST THE CORNER! HE TRIES TO GET UP- RIGHT INTO A “VERY MEXICAN UPPERCUT”!!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHICH XANDER REVERSES INTO A SAITO SUPLEX OUT OF NOWHERE! He scouted that one right out from TLA! He forces him up and then throws him towards the ropes, yet again- POPS HIM UP FOR THE “LAST SEDATION!”
Stew-O: HE OVERSHOOTS IT AND TLA LANDS RIGHT BEHIND HIM! STOMP ONTO THE BACK OF HIS KNEE-
Gavin Kirkland: RIGHT ONTO A “MEGIDOLADYNE!!!” THE KNEE FROM MILLI HITS RIGHT ACROSS XANDER’S JAW! AND TLA TAKES HIS CHANCE TO GET MOMENTUUUUMMMM!!!
Persephone: “MEXICAN DESTROYER” ONTO THAT FAT FUCK!!!
Stew-O: Xander gets spiked right on his head, TLA rolling away… and bowing towards Milli, willing to give her the pin! But she instead turns to one of her teammates… and tags them in!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: LIMMY IS BACK!!!
Stew-O: AND HE DOES NOT HAVE MERCY! ESPECIALLY FROM WHAT TRANSPIRED EARLIER IN THE YEAR! HE RUNS AND GATHERS UP SPEED, MOVING TOWARDS A RISING XANDER!
Gavin Kirkland: “DIVINE DEPARTUREEEEEEEE!!!” BAAAAAANGGGGGGGG! REFEREE DROPS DOWN!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Bella Braxton: XANDER PAYNE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
Gavin Kirkland: LET’S GOOOOO! FIRST ELIMINATION BY LIMOMMY HIMSELF! WE WIN THESE!!!
Persephone: The first person eliminated was from your brand, you IDIOT!!!
Gavin Kirkland: …oh yeah. Uh… that’s bad too.
Stew-O: A combined effort from TLA, Milli and Limmy makes Xander the first person to be eliminated, and the faces in the Showdown team right now are a poem. Daryl is starting to argue with Donovan about him tagging out earlier like that and during the argument, Damien decides to quickly step in and take the spot!
Gavin Kirkland: Limmy looks ready and TLA himself as well for the new challenger, but TLA turns to see one of his teammates reaching out, and with a grin on his face, he accepts it!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: AS THE VOLTAGE CAPTAIN STEPS IN YET AGAIN! Cody Maverick goes through the ropes and then looks straight at Limmy! I think it is clear now why he decided to enter! Limmy responds simply with a confident smile, ready to go at him!
Persephone: BUT DAMIEN KUTCHER AS ALWAYS HAS TO RUIN EVERYTHING AND INSERTS HIMSELF INTO THE EQUATION! HE JUMPS ONTO LIMMY AND TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A SHOULDER BLOCK HERE, BEFORE BEGINNING TO STOMP HIM DOWN OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
Stew-O: Cody definitely not staying put though! He falls back onto the ropes and gathers momentum here! TRYING TO HIT DAMIEN RIGHT ACROSS THE FACE WITH THE “MONEYMAKER!!!”
Gavin Kirkland: Damien ducks under the punch in time, forcing Cody to stumble forward towards the ropes here! Damien runs at the ropes, trying to get momentum himself and trying to come back towards Cody- GETS CAUGHT WITH A SNAP SUPLEX FROM MY ACE!
Stew-O: Limmy tries to lift him up again, Damien struggling as hard as he can! Elbow to force Limmy back! He runs forward at Cody, UPPERCUT TO DISORIENT HIM! BEFORE GRABBING ONTO HIS ARM AND PULLING HIM FORWARD- “THE DIVINE FINISH!!!”
Persephone: OUR gLorIoUs CAPTAIN IS ABLE TO GRAB ONTO DAMIEN’S ARMS AND PULL HIM DOWN, REVERSING IT INTO A CRUCIFIX PIN!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Stew-O: DAMIEN KICKS OUT AT TWO! SCURRYING TO GO FOR A-
Gavin Kirkland: “SIN CITY STUNNEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRR!!!”
Stew-O: DAMIEN GOES FLYING IN THE AIR AND HE FALLS DOWN HARD, AS CODY PINS HIM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Bella Braxton: DAMIEN KUTCHER HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
Stew-O: AND JUST LIKE THAT, TEAM SHOWDOWN IS DOWN TO THREE, ALL WHILE EVERYONE ELSE HAS ALL FIVE!
Gavin Kirkland: Okay, uh… we got it, yeah, we definitely have it! OKAY, WE DON’T HAVE IT, OH GOD!
Stew-O: The argument has turned into shouting now as Daryl and Donovan have seen Damien get eliminated, putting the blame upon each other and Akari can only see in shock as his tag partner has been taken out… but he suddenly turns towards his teammates!
Akari Kiyoko: (off-mic) 黙れ！STOP FIGHTING AND DO YOUR JOB!!!
Gavin Kirkland: That shut them right up! Donovan and Daryl stop talking as Akari goes through the ropes and decides to be the legal man now! I love the enthusiasm Akari but don’t push it now!
Stew-O: Akari has no fear as he stands against Cody and Limmy himself! But some of their teammates extend out their hands knowing they have to keep cycling through. Cody decides to stay though, confident he has some extra energy.
Gavin Kirkland: My Ace does the opposite, he sticks to his plan! He simply brushes off Akari’s determination and decides to tag out now to a very eager teammate!
(TAG!)
Persephone: Great! Creepy girl is in the match again! I hope she kills someone now, that would actually make this more interesting.
Stew-O: Effy enters with a joyous smile on her face, all while Akari turns and keeps his focus here on Cody, seemingly ready to go at him again-
Gavin Kirkland: BUT HE TURNS AND HE SUPERKICKS EFFY RIGHT ON THE SIDE OF HER HEAD! CODY GETS SLIGHTLY TAKEN OFF GUARD HERE AT AKARI NOT GOING FOR HIM AGAIN!
Stew-O: HE SEEMINGLY HAS A PLAN NOW, LIFTING EFFY UP AND TRYING TO FINISH THIS OFF QUICKLY! “ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES!!!
Gavin Kirkland: EFFY IS ABLE TO SPIN OUT OF AKARI’S HOLD HERE! IRISH WHIPPING HIM TOWARDS THE ROPES, ALL WHILE EFFY MOVES AND GATHERS MOMENTUM HERE! “PROTECT YA NECK!!!” CLOTHESLINE FROM HELL!
Stew-O: AKARI DUCKS RIGHT UNDER! HE RUNS THE ROPES AGAIN, BUT EFFY SUDDENLY STOPS HERSELF BY HOLDING ONTO THE ROPES LAST MINUTE, AS AKARI RUNS TOWARDS A-
Gavin Kirkland: “SIN CITY STUNNEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRR!!!”
Persephone: REVERSED RIGHT INTO A “HEAVY ON MY HEART!!!!” THE STUNNER RIGHT ONTO THE SUPLEX! AKARI TRIES TO PIN CODY!
Gavin Kirkland: “STORYBOOK ENDING!!!” THE CURB STOMP FROM EFFY!
Stew-O: AKARI MOVES HIS HEAD AT THE LAST SECOND! HE PUSHES EFFY TOWARDS THE ROPES, AS EFFY REBOUNDS YET AGAIN TRYING A-
Gavin Kirkland: “PEACH DREAM” OUT OF NOWHEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Stew-O: AKARI JUST ALMOST KICKED EFFY’S HEAD OFF WITH THAT ONE! HE COVERS HER!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Bella Braxton: EFFY MCAVOY HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
Stew-O: AKARI DOES IT! HE TAKES DOWN ONE OF DYNASTY’S MEMBERS AND THE WHOLE TEAM LOOKS OVER IN SHOCK!
Persephone: Akari doing something good for once?! Am I dreaming???
Gavin Kirkland: THAT’S MY PEACH BABY! HE JUST TOOK DOWN A FORMER NEW BREED CHAMPION! And that small victory has given Donovan and Daryl some hope yet again, as Akari moves quickly and goes to re-group with them now!
Stew-O: Dynasty re-groups as well! As one of the co-captains, Rex McAllisters enters as well!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody is clearly hurt as well from that landing he took from the suplex, so he rolls away now, and someone tags in for him!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: AS CHRIS ELITE TAKES THE RING NOW! Chris staring directly at Rex, two well known rivals ready to battle yet again and duke it out right now! As they run forward to clash-
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: AKARI ENDS UP TAGGING IN DONOVAN! AKARI AND DARYL QUICKLY LEAVE THE RING ALL WHILE DONOVAN ENTERS! What do they have planned?!
Persephone: Akari comes over at ringside and towards Dynasty’s corner- AND PULLS OFF THAT STUPID BIRD OFF HER CORNER, MAKING HER FACE PLANT ONTO THE RING APRON! HAH!
Stew-O: DARYL DOES THE SAME IN VOLTAGE’S CORNER, PULLING MIKU OFF OF IT AND MAKING HER LAND HARD FACE FIRST! The two of them are furious now and chase right after the two, both Akari and Daryl meeting in the middle- AND DUCKING UNDER THE RING!
Gavin Kirkland: AND A PUNCH PLANNED FOR DARYL ENDS UP HITTING RAVEN INSTEAD! AS THE ANGER NOW TURNS BETWEEN EACH OTHER AND BOTH RAVEN AND MIKU START DUKING IT OUT AT RINGSIDE!
Stew-O: THEIR TEAMMATES NOW START DROPPING OUT OF THEIR CORNERS TO GO AND HELP THEM! PANDEMONIUM BREAKS OUT AT RINGSIDE AS TEAM VOLTAGE AND TEAM DYNASTY CLASH AT RINGSIDE WITH FISTS FLYING ALL AROUND! Daryl and Akari just have successfully made chaos happen between the two teams!
Gavin Kirkland: All while the men inside of the ring are oblivious to what is happening! REX TRIES TO JUMP FOR A KNEE!
Stew-O: CHRIS BACKS AWAY FROM IT AND AVOIDS IT! A ROUNDHOUSE KICK FROM DONOVAN IS SENT HIS WAY BUT HE DUCKS RIGHT UNDER IT! AS HE JUMPS ONTO BOTH MEN- BRINGING THEM DOWN WITH A DOUBLE JUMPING DDT!
Gavin Kirkland: Chris pulls Rex up to his feet, trying to bring him for another move- BUT FOREARM FROM REX STOPS HIM IN HIS TRACKS! BICYCLE KICK FROM REX!
Stew-O: Avoided by Chris! He lifts him up trying to go for a German Suplex! But Rex is able to grab onto his arm and pull him down with an Arm Drag! Just as Chris gets up- REX IS ABLE TO LAND THE JUMPING KNEE! And now he pulls him here to go for a German Suplex of his own!
Gavin Kirkland: DONOVAN COMES FROM BEHIND AND GRABS ONTO REX! A DOUBLE GERMAN SUPLEX!!!!
Stew-O: BOTH REX AND CHRIS LAND HARD AGAINST THE MAT. Chris slowly pushing himself up, trying to push through the pain- AND DONOVAN HAS HIS TARGET!
Gavin Kirkland: “FORCE OF WILL!” THE SPINNING BACKFIST ROCKS CHRIS HARD! THAT’S MY LEADER!
Stew-O: Chris falls down to the mat, Donovan resting against the ropes to get some energy and then moving to-
(TAG!)
Persephone: AND THE FLYING BRIT JUST TAGS HIMSELF IN!
Stew-O: Donovan looks over in shock and confusion at Daryl’s return, as he rushes forward and pulls Chris off the mat! LIFTING HIM UP!!!
Gavin Kirkland: “MISERY LOVES COMPANY!!!” DARYL HITS IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING AND HE COVERS!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Bella Braxton: CHRIS ELITE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
Gavin Kirkland: LET’S GOOOO! ANOTHER ONE FOR SHOWDOWN! DARYL TAKES IT!
Stew-O: Yeah, but Donovan’s furious, he enters and forces Daryl to turn back towards him!
Donovan Duke: (off-mic) Oh, so this is how we are going to keep doing it huh?!
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) Mate, I am just going in and out, we have to work together, no?
Donovan Duke: (off-mic) By stealing MY elimination?
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) Wha- are you bloody kidding me?!
(Donovan and Daryl raised their voices yet again and once more began to shout loudly at each other, Akari moving in quickly to try and somehow stop the two of them from fighting.)
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) From the supposed accidental punch, from turning my friend into that, and then making our brand hell to walk through! Every single problem started because of YOU!
Donovan Duke: (off-mic) Then why have you not stopped me yet? The reason why you don’t have a friend anymore, why you are alone, why such problems keep happening is because you are a sad pathetic human being that will ALWAYS ruin everything you touch!
Akari Kiyoko: (off-mic) HEY!
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) …
(Daryl suddenly grew quiet all while Donovan stared intensely at his eyes and Akari put an arm in-between the two. Before Daryl sighed heavily.)
Daryl Kinkade: (off-mic) Akari. Good luck.
Stew-O: DARYL PUSHES AKARI OUT OF THE WAY!
Gavin Kirkland: “BOW DOWN TO THE KINK” POINT BLANK AT DONOVAN’S HEAD! MY LEADER, NOOOOOOO!!!
Persephone: LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Stew-O: DARYL HAS HAD ENOUGH! HE LEAVES THE ROPES AND GOES UP THE RAMP TO THE CHEERS OF THE CROWD, FLIPPING OFF DONOVAN DUKE IN THE PROCESS!
Referee: ONE!
Referee: TWO!
Referee: THREE!
Referee: FOUR!
Gavin Kirkland: DARYL, PLEASE, WE NEED YOU!
Referee: FIVE!
Referee: SIX!
Referee: SEVEN!
Stew-O: Yeah, that is not working.
Referee: EIGHT!
Referee: NINE!
Persephone: He has already booked a flight to the next destination by this point, just move on!
Referee: TEN!
Bella Braxton: DARYL KINKADE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
Stew-O: There were flashes of hope right then and there for the team, but they got extinguished as egos could not co-exist! Akari is forced to grab onto the barely conscious Donovan and pull him over towards their corner, a very stressed expression on his face as he tries to figure out what to do next. Right now, Akari is the only salvation for Showdown!
Persephone: They are SO cooked.
Gavin Kirkland: THE LADIES HAVE FINALLY MOVED THEIR FIGHT TO THE RING! Miku hops onto the ring, anger in her eyes and a want to kick Raven’s ass, and Raven hops as well, reaching out her hand to a recovering Rex so she can get in!
Persephone: And the blandest man in existence of course will accept!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: AS RAVEN ENTERS INSIDE WITHOUT WAITING ANY LESS! SHE TRIES TO HIT THE “FACELIFT” RIGHT OFF THE BAT!
Gavin Kirkland: MIKU DUCKS RIGHT UNDER THE KICK, TRYING TO JUMP OVER ONTO RAVEN AND SEND HER FLYING WITH SOME HEADSCISSORS!
Stew-O: Raven is able to roll through and land on her feet, moving quickly towards the ropes here and trying to jump onto the ropes! TRYING TO GO FOR A SPRINGBOARD ROUNDHOUSE KICK!
Gavin Kirkland: MIKU JUMPS OFF TO CATCH HER WITH A “CUCK KILLER” OUT OF NOWHERE!!!
Persephone: THAT STUPID BIRD HOLDS ONTO THE ROPE AT THE LAST SECOND AND MIKU DOESN’T GET IT! KILL HER, MIKU, KILL HEEEEERRRR!!!
Stew-O: Raven drops off the second rope and jumps onto Miku, trying to pull her down onto a Guillotine Choke-
Gavin Kirkland: MIKU REVERSES IT INTO A ROLL-UP!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Stew-O: RAVEN KICKS OUT IN TIME! SHE TRIES TO RAISE UP!
Gavin Kirkland: MIKU JUMPS ONTO HER TO GO FOR A SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB!
Stew-O: RAVEN PUSHES HER OFF OF HER AND TURNS, SENDING HER TOWARDS THE ROPES, AND MIKU REBOUNDING INTO A-
Gavin Kirkland: “BEAK BREAKER!!!”
Persephone: NO, NO, NO! COME ON!!!
Stew-O: RAVEN TURNS AND CALLS FOR REX! JUST AS REX ENTERS AND RAVEN LIFTS UP MIKU HIGH INTO THE AIR! FIRE AND ICE!!!

Bella Braxton: MIKU SAKAI HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!
Gavin Kirkland: THE POWER OF LOVE REIGNS!
Persephone: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: Jay is able to slip away from the battle currently going on and is able to enter inside of the ring, leaving TLA, Cody, Limmy and Milli fighting it outside! Rex is still healing from his battle from earlier and can’t help them for now. Jay warms up and is ready to fight Raven, just as Raven prepares too, the two moving to-
Gavin Kirkland: AKARI COMES OUT OF NOWHERE AND SENDS RAVEN FLYING AGAINST THE CORNER WITH A SHOTGUN DROPKICK! THIS THE ONE MAN ARMY RIGHT HERE, LET’S GO PEACH BABY!
Stew-O: BUT AKARI TURNS OVER AND IS MET ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WITH A PUMP KICK HERE BY JAY! Jay tries to grab onto his arm and then pull him along here, forcing his arms around his here- AND GOING FOR A COBRA CLUTCH SUPLEX!
Gavin Kirkland: PEACH BABY FREES HIS ARMS AT THE LAST SECOND AND IS ABLE TO FLIP OVER, LANDING ON HIS FEET! Akari runs forward- BUT RAVEN USES THE DOWNED JAY AS A JUMPING PAD!!! CROSSBODY TO TAKE DOWN AKARI!
Persephone: That stupid fucking bird that I hate pulls up useless Akari to his feet, trying to go for a Canadian Destroyer!
Stew-O: Akari is able to lift her up and get her off of him with a back body drop! Yet again Raven lands on her feet and she switches targets to Jay, running at him and trying to clothesline him down- AS JAY TURNS AT THE LAST SECOND AND HITS A PELE KICK TO THAT ARM TO STOP HER! HE RISES UP!
Gavin Kirkland: AND IS MET WITH A FLURRY OF MUAY THAI KICKS FROM RAVEN! AKARI TRIES TO GET INVOLVED BUT HIMSELF GETS BOMBARDED WITH A BARRAGE TOO! SHE IS FLAUNTING HER WINGS SO THEY DON’T APPROACH!
Stew-O: BUT RAVEN CHANGING HER FOCUS TO AKARI GIVES JAY THE CHANCE TO HIT HER ACROSS THE HEAD WITH AN EUROPEAN UPPERCUT! BEFORE HEAVING HER UP IN THE AIR- AND SLAMMING HER HARD ONTO THE MAT WITH A MICHINOKU DRIVER!!!
Gavin Kirkland: JAY-
Stew-O: GETS MET AS WELL WITH A SHINING WIZARD FROM AKARIIIIII! JAY AND RAVEN ARE LAID OUT BUT AKARI RISES AND HE-

Stew-O: RAVEN RISES UP SLOWLY NOW, PUSHING THROUGH THE PAIN, PULLING JAY UP BY HIS HAIR! Before slowly backing away, further and further… AND BOUNCING OFF THE ROPES!

Gavin Kirkland: A SPINNING VARIATION OF THE “HEAVEN’S FEEL”!!! RAVEN GETS DRILLED DOWN RIGHT ONTO THE MAT!!!
Persephone: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!
Stew-O: RAVEN HAS TO BE SEEING STARS! Jay pushes slowly, and tries to put an arm over Raven to cover her!
Gavin Kirkland: JAY SUDDENLY GETS PULLED OUT OF THE RING BEFORE HE CAN!
Stew-O: DONOVAN DUKE! DONOVAN IS BACK UP AFTER THAT SWINGING ELBOW! HE SENDS JAY HARD AGAINST THE BARRICADE!
Gavin Kirkland: ALL WHILE AKARI ROLLS BACK INSIDE AND GRABS ONTO THE BARELY CONSCIOUS RAVEN! LIFTING HER UP ONTO THE SKY!

Persephone: Damn it, Akari kicks out! He quickly rolls back up and Jay tries to clothesline him, but he ducks and runs against the ropes, Spinning Reverse Kick! Nope,. Of course not, Jay ducks and Akari lands hard on the mat!
Gavin Kirkland: Jay is setting him up! He picks up Akari and looks like he is signaling for the Heaven’s Feel! He has him up and –

(The crowd boos as Limmy Monaghan was robbed as the Voltage crew had worked together to eliminate another Dynasty wrestler and there are only Milli Banks and Rex McAllister from Dynasty! Cody Maverick and TLA from Voltage and Akari Kiyoko and Donovan Duke from Showdown.)
Gavin Kirkland: TLA pinned Limommy Monaghan, and we are all tied up at two apiece and here comes Rex McAllister! With a dropkick on TLA that has him reeling! He falls through the ropes and on the apron, Rex runs to the turnbuckle, AND SPRINGS OFF WITH A CLOTHESLINE THAT TAKES DOWN TLA ON THE OUTSIDE!

After what happened last season on Showdown and Pain For Pride! They have a stare down as Donovan Duke grabs Rex McAllister and whips him into the turnbuckle. He tags in Akari Kiyoko! How much longer is this going to go on!? We are down to the final six! Please end this!
Stew-O: Akari Kiyoko and Donovan Duke start working over Rex McAllister who is in the corner. Donovan holds him down as Akari kicks him over and over again before taking him out of the corner. SNAP SUPLEX ON REX! Akari bounces off the ropes, quick elbow to Rex McAllister! And he sits him up, driving the knee into the back of Rex!

SHE IS TIRED OF THIS AND IT HAS CAUSED AN ALL OUT BRAWL! DONOVAN DUKE IS IN THE RING! TLA AND CODY MAVERICK ARE IN THE RING! THE RFEFEREE HAS LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF THIS MATCH AS THE PARTICIPANTS ARE TRYING TO BEAT EACH OTHER SENSELESS!
(There is chaos in the ring as the referee is trying to calm things down, other officials on the outside are doing the same thing but they do not see Donovan Duke get away from the melee and plant Rex McAllister with the Fall From Grace.)
Stew-O: The referee’s missed that! Donovan Duke hits the Fall From Grace on Rex McAllister as Akari Kiyoko now positions himself and hits FREEWAVE! HE FOLDED UP REX MCALLISTER AND DYNASTY IS ABOUT TO LOSE ANOTHER MEMBER!

Stew-O: We know the bad blood between Cody and Donovan Duke! Cody picks up Donovan and belly to back suplex! The crowd is going wild, and Silas Mason is beside himself! Cody has Donovan up, lefts and rights on Duke has him against the ropes and SILAS MASON GRABS THE LEG OF CODY MAVERICK!
(Cody tries to kick him off and that gives Donovan enough time to rake the eyes of Cody causing him to let go. The crowd boos as Donovan grabs Cody Maverick.)
Persephone: Cody is so stupid, and Donovan now hits The Force of Will …. NO! Cody Maverick ducks and hist LIGHTS OUT! THE SUPERMAN PUNCH STUNS DONOVAN AND CODY TAGS TLA! TLA IS IN THE RING AND HITS THE VERY MEXICAN UPPERCUT!

Stew-O: I will say it again, a career defining match for Akari Kiyoko and I look forward to what this man does the rest of the season on Showdown, but he has been eliminated, and we are down to the final four!
(Akari Kiyoko rolls out of the ring disappointed, but the crowd gives him a round of applause. Luna greets him as they leave the ringside area, even Silas gives him a nod as it is now Donovan Duke for Showdown, Cody Maverick for Voltage, and both Rex McAllister and Milli Banks for Dynasty.)

(The crowd erupts in boos as Donovan Duke stands in the middle of the ring alone, he raises his hands up in the air while Silas Mason just stands there clapping even though he took a vicious bump earlier.)
Persephone: This is absolutely ridiculous! Why is he extending this match as it is, it’s been such a long night! I mean stop grandstanding! I hate this match!
Gavin Kirkland: Showdown has been tearing it up and Donovan Duke is going to win this all!
(Donovan Duke stands in the middle of the ring and poses, signaling for a title around his waist as the crowd continues to boo.)

Crowd: NA NA NA NA… NA NA NA NA…. HEY HEY HEY….. GOODBYE!!!!!

Bella Braxton: CODY MAVERICK HAS BEEN ELIMINATED! THE WINNER OF THE MATCH IS THE TEAM OF MILLI BANKS! FIRE & ICE! EFFY MCAVOY! AND LIMMY MONAGHAN!!! TEAM DYNASTY!!!!!!
(Milli Banks let’s go of the hold as “Just A Phase” by Incubus starts to play throughout the arena as the crowd cheers. Milli Banks just lays on the mat bleeding and in tears as Cody Maverick lies on the mat slowly stirring.)
Stew-O: DYNASTY WINS! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE MATCH AND MAIN EVENT WE HAD HERE IN NIGHT ONE! IT CAME DOWN TO THE VERY BEST AND THEY SHOWCASED THAT HERE TONIGHT! GIVE IT TO CODY MAVERICK, DONOVAN DUKE, AKARI KIYOKO, REX MCALLISTER AND EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS MATCH! THEY ALL CAME TO WIN TONIGHT BUT MILLI BANKS WAS ABLE TO PULL IT OFF!
Persephone: This really sucks.
Gavin Kirkland: You are telling me. But It was an awesome match, and Milli Banks is the sole survivor.
(Milli Banks has her arm raised as she slowly gets up. The referee checks on Cody Maverick as Milli reaches over nods in respect as she reaches over and they slap hands. He rolls out of the ring as we see the rest of Team Dynasty come back out and get in the ring.)
Stew-O: A SHOW OF SOLIDARITY! AS WE SEE ALL THE MEMBERS OF TEAM DYNASTY THERE STANDING AND HELPING MILLI BANKS UP! THE RED BRAND WINS BRAND WARFARE!
Persephone: This makes me sick, but at least it is over.
Gavin Kirkland: Congrats Team Dynasty, but team Showdown got robbed.
(The fans continue to cheer loudly as Milli Banks has her arm raised by rex and Raven. Limmy claps as Effy just smiles.)
Stew-O: That is all for tonight everyone and what a night that we saw here and there is still a whole night two! Surprises, shocks, and Team Dynasty with the win! For Persephone and Gavin Kirkland! I am Stew-O, and we will see you tomorrow night for Territorial Invasion!
(The final scene is Team Dynasty is celebrating in the middle of the ring as Cody Maverick looks back as he is helped to the back. The last shot is of Milli Banks holding up her arms and standing tall with Team Dynasty.)
DAY 2
(The scene opens up with a shot of Washington D.C., the Nation’s Capital building, also views of the White House, National Monument, The Mall, and Lincoln Memorial. As the camera pans, there is one man standing in front of the Capital building with the three banners of Dynasty, Showdown, Voltage. Another very familiar face.)
Narrator: After Territorial Invasion Night One, it is certain, we all witnessed victory and defeat, two sides of the same coin. And every time the EAW Elitists step into the ring, each of them are ready to flip it.
(The scene switches to highlights from Night One of Territorial Invasion. It showed Veena Adams showing off the Answers World Championship after she was able to survive the onslaught of Jake Smith. It then changes to Ashlynn Quinn laughing while gripping the New Breed Championship after she was sneaky defeating Candice Blair Ava and Cosmo Goldworthy.)
Narrator: The thrill of victory? It’s like lightning in your veins, it’s the roar of the crowd shaking the ground beneath your feet, it’s the moment your hand is raised, and the world knows you were the better warrior on that given night. For so many Elitists, it is the drug they all chase, the reason they push their bodies past the breaking point, the reason why they sacrifice everything just to hear that bell ring with their name in glory.
(The footage then starts playing of Harper Lee laughing while holding the National Elite Championship with Silas World behind her and kissing Donovan Duke. It them switches to SOSA Henderson with a smirk on his face as his arm is raised in victory. Dr. Bethany Blue and Adam Lucas both smiling while holding up their titles watching what is happening in the ring, finally Team Dynasty standing tall at the end of the show.)
Narrator: But then… there’s the other side. The agony of defeat. That silence that cuts deeper than any cheer. The sting of the mat against your shoulders when you can’t lift them up before the three count. The haunting thought that maybe you weren’t good enough, that maybe all those hours, all that blood, all that sweat… weren’t enough. Defeat isn’t just pain, oh no, it’s a ghost that follows you long after the match ends.
(It the shows Brian Daniels glaring out to SOSA Henderson, Jon Kelton and Bronson Daniels fighting after losing, The medical staff carrying out Trixie and Solomon Stane, and finally Cody Maverick looking back at Dynasty celebrating, the various eliminations including Donovan Duke getting mugged.)
Narrator: But on Night Two? It is a new night! And that’s why they fight. Because only those who’ve tasted the bitterness of loss can truly savor the sweetness of victory. Only those who’ve been broken can know the ecstasy of rising again. Victory and defeat, they’re the fire and the ice, no pun intended, that forge legends. Where the EAW Elitists, will take them both.
(The footage flashes the contenders in Divide & Conquer, Mia Santoro, Holly Arrow, KASAI, Ms. Extreme, Daniella Atlas, Michael Machina, Cy Henderson, ARIA, Saori Aizen, Selina Reyes, and then Minerva. Finally it has the members of the War Games Teams – BRAE, Drake King, and Methuselah representing Dynasty, then changes to Drake Armstrong, Kai Rabeaux, and Hans Grayson for Voltage. Then it is Joso, Bea Valentine, and Impact representing Showdown.)
Narrator: Because no matter what the outcome, when the EAW Elitists step in the ring it is for one Brand Supremacy! Welcome to Territorial Invasion NIGHT TWO!
(As he salutes in front of the three brand flags, the scene slowly fades away.)

???: AND NOW CAPITAL ONE AND EAW2K25 PRESENTS THE 2025 EAW TERRITORIAL INVASION – NIGHT TWO!
(The camera pans into the as “The One” by Ke$ha plays throughout the National Park, home of the Washington Commanders. The sold out stadium is on their feet for Night Two of Territorial Invasion as jets do a fly by and fireworks go off red, white and blue. The camera then pans to the Showdown announce team of Deadprez, Eve, and Gavin Kirkland.)
Deadprez: AND HERE WE ARE AGAIN FOR NIGHT TWO OF TERRITORIAL INVASION! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE NIGHT ONE WE HAD! DYNASTY WALKED OUT AS THE BRAND WARFARE WINNERS, VEENA ADAMS BESTED JAKE SMITH AND IS STILL THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! ADAM LUCAS AND DR. BETHANY BLUE SURVIVED THE TWO FALLS OF TERROR WHILE ELYSIUM IMPLODED, ASHLYNN QUINN RETAINED AS DID HARPER LEE WHERE WE SAW SILAS WORLD ANNIHILATE THE STANE’S! BUT TONIGHT, WE HAVE DIVIDE & CONQUER, TWO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHES! THE SPECIALIST TITLE ON THE LINE, A TORNADO TAG WITH MINERVA AND WE TOP ALL THAT OFF WITH WAR GAMES!
Eve: IT HAS BEEN AN INCREDIBLE WEEKEND WITH SOME CAREER DEFINING PERFORMANCES! BUT WILL WE SEE NEW CHAMPIONS TONIGHT!? AND WHO WILL WALK OUT OF WAR GAMES THE WINNER! WE ARE ABOUT TO SEE AND I AM SUPER EXCITED!
Gavin Kirkland: SHOWDOWN WAS ROBBED LAST NIGHT, BUT TONIGHT THE BLUE BRAND WILL PREVAIL! BUT WHY NOT KICK IT OFF LIKE WE DID LAST NIGHT WITH ANOTHER WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH! TAKE IT AWAY GINA ROMANO!
(The graphic for the first match of Territorial Invasion: Night Two appears as the crowd erupts in cheers.)

(The camera cuts to Gina Romano in the ring.)
Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Gina Romano: AND IS FOR THE EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP!
(‘my mind is a mountain’ by Deftones plays to a mixed reaction, some split between Daniella and Ms. Extreme. Daniella makes her way onto the stage, and glances around with a determined look on her face before marching down to the ring, mouthing the lyrics to her theme song with the focus not leaving her eyes, having entered another zone for this upcoming match with Ms. Extreme.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first! From Dunkirk, France, weighing in at 170 pounds…THE BLACK FLAME…DANIELLA ATLAS!
Gavin Kirkland: I’ve been waiting for this match!
Eve: I’m sure you have, but not for the right reasons I imagine.
Gavin Kirkland: What? It’s Daniella Atlas and Ms. Extreme! Two of the best female athletes going at it!
Eve: Mhm, I’m watching you. But you’re right, this is two of the best going at it, and I’m excited to see the result.
(‘The Emptiness Machine’ by Linkin Park blasts next, and Ms. Extreme makes her way onto the stage area with the Universal Women’s Championship wrapped around her waist before removing it. Camille raises the title high to heavy pyro before marching down the ramp, continuing to raise it high while never taking her eyes off Atlas in the ring.)
Gina Romano: And her opponent! Hailing out of Calabasas, California, weighing in at 140 pounds…SHE IS THE EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION… THE PROBLEM CHILD…MS. EXTREME!!!
Eve: One thing both women have shared heading into this is confidence, refusing to even entertain the idea they’ll fall to the other.
Deadprez: You can talk a big game, but not everyone is able to back it up. Whose that going to be tonight?
Eve: It’s hard to tell. Both women are coming into this match with strong momentum, and it can truly be anybody’s ball game.
(The referee signals for the bell as both competitors stand in opposing corners.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: DANIELLA ATLAS WASTES NO TIME AFTER THE BELL, AND IMMEDIATELY CHARGES MS. EXTREME WITH A BIG BOOT!
Deadprez: BUT CAMILLE MOVES OUT THE WAY!
(Camille sidesteps, and Daniella’s boot hits the middle turnbuckle instead, halting her momentum. But Daniella snaps back around towards Ms. Extreme with intensity in her eyes.)
(Camille is backpedaling to the opposite corner, taunting the already angered Daniella.)
Deadprez: MS. EXTREME’S BECKONING FOR DANIELLA TO FOLLOW HER, WHICH SHE DOES! DANIELLA IS MARCHING TOWARD MS. EXTREME, BACKING HER INTO THAT CORNER UNTIL SHE HAS NOWHERE ELSE TO GO!
Eve: NOW, DANIELLA SWINGS AT MS. EXTREME! BUT CAMILLE BAITED HER AS SHE DUCKS UNDERNEATH, AND DANIELLA FINDS HERSELF IN THE CORNER FOR A KNIFE EDGE CHOP ACROSS THE CHEST! ECHOING THROUGHOUT THE ARENA!
Gavin Kirkland: Ouch, that’s going to leave a mark on Daniella’s perfect skin!
Deadprez: Ms. Extreme connects with ANOTHER knife edge chop across the chest! Continuing to soften Daniella up for an irish whip to the opposite corner!
Eve: But Daniella reverses it! Sending Camille to the corner instead, and MS. EXTREME GOES UP AND OVER DANIELLA’S HEAD! DANIELLA TURNS AROUND, AND GOES TO INTERCEPT CAMILLE IN THE CENTER! BUT MS. EXTREME TRIES TO EVADE HER! SLIDING THROUGH THE LEGS OF ATLAS!
Deadprez: BUT DANIELLA REACHES DOWN, AND BRINGS CAMILLE’S MOMENTUM TO A HALT! SHE CAUGHT HER MID SLIDE, AND DEADLIFTS CAMILLE BACK UP INTO A REAR WAISTLOCK!
Eve: BUT CAMILLE REMAINS SLIPPERY, AND CHARGES TOWARD THE ROPES BEFORE DROPPING DOWN! DANIELLA TUMBLED OUT THROUGH THE MIDDLE, AND LANDS ON A KNEE! USING THE APRON FOR ASSISTANCE TO RISE BACK TO HER FEET!
Gavin Kirkland: I got a good view of Daniella’s-
Eve: Gavin.
Gavin Kirkland: Right! …Ms. Extreme grabs hold of the top rope, and SLINGSHOTS herself onto Atlas with a crossbody to the outside!
Deadprez: BUT DANIELLA CATCHES HER! DANIELLA CAUGHT CAMILLE, AND SHIFTS HER ONTO HER SHOULDER! NOW, ATLAS BEGINS EYEING THAT RINGPOST, AND CHARGES TOWARD IT! PLANNING TO DO SOME SERIOUS DAMAGE TO CAMILLE-
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME SLIPS OUT THE BACK, AND SHOVES DANIELLA FACE FIRST INTO THE RINGPOST!
Deadprez: Somehow, Atlas remains on her feet! Daniella still manages to stand, and staggers her way towards the announce table… meanwhile, Ms. Extreme hops up onto the apron! She’s stalking Atlas like a shark that smells blood in the water!
(Daniella Atlas is struggling to stand as she staggers to the announce table, and leans on it for support with her back turned towards Ms. Extreme on the apron.)
Eve: Daniella’s trying to shake the cobwebs out of her head as she hit that ringpost pretty hard…
Deadprez: But Daniella finally turns around towards Ms. Extreme as she FLIES off the apron with a HURRICANRANA— WAIT!!
Eve: DANIELLA CATCHES HER! DANIELLA HAS CAMILLE SUSPENDED UPSIDE DOWN, AND SWINGS HER HEAD FIRST INTO THE BOTTOM OF OUR ANNOUNCE TABLE!
(CRACK!!)
Gavin Kirkland: :damn: SHE CRASHED HEAD FIRST!
(Daniella stumbles back against the apron, and forms a smile on her face as the crowd roars with approval over such an awesome feat of strength.)
Eve: This is EXACTLY what Ms. Extreme wanted to avoid. She did a great job at first of evading the STIFF and POWERFUL offense from Daniella, but it was only a matter of time before Atlas got her hands on her.
(Ms. Extreme crawls out from the table, and the crowd gasps at seeing blood trickle down her face.)
Gavin Kirkland: Oh no…
Eve: Just like that, Ms. Extreme has been busted open!
(Ms. Extreme uses Daniella’s body as a base for crawling up to a knee. Ms. Extreme looks up to Daniella with a glazed over look in her eyes before-)
Deadprez: OOH, AND DANIELLA PUNCHES CAMILLE DOWN TO THE GROUND BEFORE MOUNTING HER RINGSIDE! ATLAS IS UNLOADING WITH RIGHT HANDS! SHOWING NO SIGNS OF STOPPAGE-
Eve: Well, something does finally seem to get through to Daniella, that being the referee’s count! He’s held off from counting both women out, but leniency can only go a short way.
Gavin Kirkland: Please, if I was reffing, I’d do whatever those two ladies wanted.
Eve: Then it’s probably a good thing you’re not a ref, creepo.
Gavin Kirkland: :kyrie:
Deadprez: Daniella dismounts from Ms. Extreme, and rolls back inside the ring briefly, only to restart the count as she rolls back out.
Eve: Ms. Extreme is stirring on the outside, and Daniella grabs a hold of her… lifting Camille back to a vertical base before SENDING HER OVER THE BARRICADE WITH A BIEL THROW! MS. EXTREME JUST WIPED OUT TWO SECURITY GUARDS!
Deadprez: Daniella is having fun with this. She is exerting her dominance over our Universal Women’s Champion, and goes over the barricade to retrieve her. Picking Ms. Extreme up from the rubble she lies in, being those two security guards, and non-chalantly sends her up and over the barricade back to the ringside area.
Eve: Ms. Extreme crawls over to the barricade, and uses the apron for assistance in getting back to her feet. But Daniella comes over, and rolls Ms. Extreme back inside the ring! Ms. Extreme gets to her feet, but stumbles back into the corner as Daniella rolls in herself.
Deadprez: Daniella is marching toward Ms. Extreme, a woman on a mission, and DRIVES HER SHOULDER INTO THE MIDSECTION OF CAMILLE! NO DOUBT KNOCKING THE WIND OUT HER SAILS!
Eve: Daniella isn’t done, and does it a SECOND TIME! …AND A THIRD! Ms. Extreme is doubled over in that corner, and Daniella grabs hold of her- BUT MS. EXTREME EXPLODES WITH A FOREARM! HUGE SHOT TO THE FACE, AND CAMILLE STARTS UNLEASHING A BARRAGE! TRYING TO FIGHT HER WAY OUT OF THE CORNER!
Gavin Kirkland: DANIELLA GRITS THROUGH THEM, AND EXPLODES WITH A PUSH KICK! SENDING CAMILLE BACK HARD INTO THE TURNBUCKLES!
Deadprez: Daniella has been firmly in control as she irish whips Ms. Extreme to the opposite corner! …BUT MS. EXTREME DOUBLE JUMPS HER WAY TO THE TOP ROPE, AND FLIES OFF WITH A TWISTING CROSSBODY! REMAINING ON TOP OF DANIELLA, HOOKING THE LEG FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Eve: KICKOUT! IT WASN’T GOING TO BE THAT EASY TO TAKE DOWN ATLAS! NOT WITH THE MOOD SHE’S IN TONIGHT, AND BOTH COMPETITORS SCRAMBLE BACK TO THEIR FEET! DANIELLA SWINGS FIRST WITH A LARIAT ATTEMPT! TRYING TO TAKE CAMILLE’S HEAD OFF WITH “INAMORATA!”
Deadprez: BUT MS. EXTREME DUCKS UNDERNEATH, AND SCORES WITH A KNIFE EDGE CHOP TO THE CHEST OF ATLAS! FOLLOWING IT UP WITH A BIG CLOTHESLINE HERSELF! HOWEVER, SHE’LL NEED A LOT MORE THAN THAT! BECAUSE DANEILLA DIDN’T GO DOWN!
Eve: NO, BUT SHE IS TEETERING! SO CLOSE TO BEING KNOCKED OFF HER FEET AS MS. EXTREME RUNS OFF THE ROPES FOR MOMENTUM! GOING FOR ANOTHER HUGE CLOTHESLINE- BUT DANIELLA AND HER COLLIDE IN THE MIDDLE WITH A DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE!
Deadprez: AGAIN, NEITHER WOMAN WENT DOWN! BUT BOTH DOUBLE OVER SLIGHTLY! DANIELLA’S SEEMS TO HAVE HAD MORE EFFECT OVER MS. EXTREME, WHO TAKES A BIT LONGER TO RECOVER AS DANIELLA BOUNCES OFF THE ROPES-
Gavin Kirkland: BUT MS. EXTREME RUNS OFF THE SAME SET, FORCING DANIELLA TO PIVOT, AND SPIN AROUND FOR AN “INAMORATA!”
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME DUCKS UNDERNEATH, AND DANIELLA FINDS HERSELF LEANED BACK AGAINST THE ROPES BEFORE CAMILLE COMES RUSHING IN WITH A CLOTHESLINE! BOTH WOMEN GO TUMBLING UP AND OVER TO THE OUTSIDE!
Deadprez: BUT DESPITE THE BLOOD LOSS, MS. EXTREME IS QUICKLY BACK TO HER FEET, AND SLIDES BACK IN TO RUN OFF THE ROPES! DANIELLA RETURNS TO HER FEET AS WELL, GETTING DRIVEN BACK FIRST INTO THE BARRICADE WITH A SUICIDE DIVE FROM CAMILLE!
Gavin Kirkland: SHE SOARED THROUGH THE MIDDLE WITH THAT DIVE, AND DANIELLA REMAINS STANDING LIKE THE AMAZONIAN SHE IS! GETTING ROLLED BACK INTO THE RING AFTERWARDS BY CAMILLE!
Eve: CAMILLE STARTS CLIMBING TO THE TOP ROPE AS DANIELLA REMAINS ON ALL FOURS! AND SHE BETTER HURRY UP BEFORE- OH! THERE IT IS! I WAS GOING TO SAY BEFORE DANIELLA ATLAS RECOVERS, BUT ATLAS HAD ENOUGH WHEREWITHAL TO USE THE MIDDLE ROPE TO HER ADVANTAGE! STEPPING UP ON IT TO DRIVE HER KNEE INTO THE JAW OF MS. EXTREME!
Deadprez: CAMILLE BARELY HANGS ON TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE, ALMOST FALLING TO RINGSIDE AS A RESULT OF THAT KNEE!
Eve: Now, what’s Daniella planning as she climbs to the middle rope, and sits herself on the top turnbuckle… Daniella’s getting Ms. Extreme onto her shoulders for a fireman’s carry! BUT MS. EXTREME IS BATTLING BACK WITH HAMMER AND ANVIL ELBOWS TO THE JAW WHILST ON THE TOP ROPE! UNRELENTING IN HER ASSAULT!
Deadprez: Well, finally… Ms. Extreme shows some restraint as Daniella is stunned while sat on that top turnbuckle! Ms. Extreme has a wild look in her eyes… and GOES FOR AN AVALANCHE HURRICANRANA!
Eve: BUT ATLAS BLOCKS IT! REMISCENT OF BEFORE WHERE SHE HAD CAMILLE SUSPENDED UPSIDE DOWN! BUT THIS TIME, GETS HER UP IN A POWERBOMB POSITION BEFORE STANDING UP ON THE MIDDLE ROPE! DANIELLA IS GOING TO LAUNCH CAMILLE WITH A-
Deadprez: HURRICANRANA!! :roman:
Gavin Kirkland: MS. EXTREME TURNED IT INTO THE HURRICANRANA ANYWAY, AND QUICKLY CRAWLS INTO THE COVER ON ATLAS!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THH-
Eve: SHOULDER UP! DANIELLA POPPED THE SHOULDER UP, BUT CAMILLE ALMOST CAUGHT HER BY THE SURPRISE THERE TO WIN!
(Ms. Extreme is slightly annoyed as she sits up, but remains focused, rolling out to the apron.)
Deadprez: Ms. Extreme pulls herself up on the apron as Daniella Atlas regains a vertical base… ATLAS RUSHES TOWARDS CAMILLE- BUT CAMILLE STICKS HER BOOT THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE FOR A BIG BOOT ON DANIELLA! ATLAS IS STAGGERED, BUT RESPONDS WITH A SUPERKICK!
Eve: SUPERKICK, AND MS. EXTREME IS GROGGY ON THE APRON AS SHE STAGGERS BACK INTO THE TURNBUCKLES! Daniella climbs up to the middle rope in the corner, and hooks Camille up for a DEADLIFT SUPERPLEX!! :damn:
Deadprez: THE POWER— NO! DANIELLA GOT HER UP, BUT CAMILLE FLOATS OVER! SLIPPING OUT THE BACK, AND LANDING HER ON HER FEET AS ATLAS REMAINS ON THAT MIDDLE ROPE BEFORE GETTING CAUGHT WITH A SUPERKICK! SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF HER RIGHT KNEE!
(Daniella falls back onto the canvas, and immediately sits herself up in the corner, clutching at her knee!)
Gavin Kirkland: If Daniella wants, I’ll happily go in, and check her knee out!
Eve: Are you a doctor?
Gavin Kirkland: No, but I am today!
Eve: Stay seated, bozo.
Gavin Kirkland: :mjcry:
Eve: This is serious. Daniella Atlas could be hurt as the referee kneels down to check on her.
Deadprez: I think he’s asking if Daniella can still go, but Atlas is insistent she can! She refuses to let an opportunity like this slip through her fingertips!
Eve: WELL, EXPECT MS. EXTREME TO SHOW NO MERCY AS SHE MOVES THE REFEREE OUT THE WAY! MS. EXTREME IS STOMPING AWAY AT THE POTENTIALLY INJURED KNEE OF ATLAS!
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe:
(The referee interjects, and pulls Camille away before reprimanding her. But Ms. Extreme completely disregards him trying to get to Daniella.)
Deadprez: Ms. Extreme lifts Daniella back up, and drags her to the center of the ring- BUT DANIELLA! DANIELLA STILL HAS FIGHT LEFT! HAMMERING MS. EXTREME WITH REPEATED FOREARM STRIKES! STARTING TO BACK HER INTO THAT CORNER BEFORE- OOH!
Eve: MS. EXTREME CAUGHT DANIELLA WITH A HARD KICK TO THE KNEE! DANIELLA GOES DOWN TO A KNEE, AND MS. EXTREME HOPS TO THE MIDDLE ROPE!
Deadprez: But Daniella returns to her feet, and hobbles toward Ms. Extreme in the corner… Camille hooks her up, and SPINS AROUND TO DELIVER A TORNADO DDT! DANIELLA LANDED ON THE TOP OF HER HEAD, AND MS. EXTREME ROLLS HER OVER FOR THE COVER! HOOKING THE LEG!
ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Deadprez: ONLY A TWO COUNT AS DANIELLA STAYS IN IT!
Gavin Kirkland: It’s downright scary how tough Daniella can be. Same goes for Ms. Extreme! Despite my wanting for both, they might kill me!
Eve: I hope they do just for the heck of it.
Gavin Kirkland: Hey!
Eve: :mjgrin: …turning our attention back to the actions, the roles have switched now as it’s Daniella crawling her way up the body of Ms. Extreme. Using anything she can to stand!
Deadprez: Ms. Extreme actually helps Daniella up… SO SHE CAN SEND HER RIGHT BACK DOWN WITH A DRAGON SCREW LEG WHIP! BUT MS. EXTREME DOESN’T RELEASE THE LEG AS SHE SCRAMBLES TO HER FEET TO TACK ON A FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK!
Eve: FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK APPLIED BY MS. EXTREME ON DANIELLA, WHO IS IN A WORLD OF PAIN AT THE MOMENT AS YOU CAN TELL BY HER SCREAMS!
Deadprez: THIS IS SMART BY MS. EXTREME! SHE HAS TARGETED THE LEG OF ATLAS, AND THAT’S ARGUABLY THE MOST CRUCIAL PART OF HER OPPONENTS GAME! DANIELLA LOVES TO KICK, AND IF SHE ISN’T DOING THAT, SHE’S USING HER LEG TO BASE FOR THESE HUGE POWER MOVES!
Eve: MS. EXTREME IS TAKING OUT HALF HER OPPONENTS OFFENSE LIKE THAT! SO, EVEN IF DANIELLA DOESN’T TAP, SHE’S STILL GOING TO BE AT A SEVERE DISADVANTAGE!
Gavin Kirkland: MS. EXTREME IS PUTTING AS MUCH PRESSURE ON THE FIGURE FOUR AS SHE CAN!
Deadprez: BUT DANIELLA CONTINUES TO HANG IN THERE, AND USES HER STRENGTH TO INCH HERSELF CLOSER TOWARD THE ROPES! HAVING TO DRAG 140 EXTRA POUNDS WITH HER! BUT SOMEHOW, SHE MANAGES TO REACH THE ROPES! GRABBING ONTO THE BOTTOM ROPE WITH BOTH HANDS!
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME ISN’T LETTING GO! KEEPING THE HOLD LOCKED IN BEFORE THE REFEREE GETS INVOLVED WITH A FIVE COUNT!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! Fi-
Deadprez: Ms. Extreme waits until the last second in order to break the hold, and drags Daniella back to the center by her ankle! GOING FOR THE FIGURE FOUR AGAIN- BUT CAN ONLY GET HALFWAY THROUGH THE SETUP BEFORE ATLAS TURNS IT INTO A SMALL PACKAGE!
ONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Eve: KICKOUT! MS. EXTREME IS BACK TO HER FEET- but Daniella! Daniella only gets to a knee, clutching at the same knee Camille’s been targeting throughout this contest. Ms. Extreme’s hard work has paid off as her opponent might be unable to stand.
Deadprez: No remorse across the face either. Camille is completely proud of herself as she slowly walks toward Atlas…
Eve: BUT DANIELLA MIGHT HAVE BEEN PLAYING POSSUM AS SHE BAITED HER IN FOR A HUGE FOREARM STRIKE! MS. EXTREME STAGGERS BACK A BIT, AND DANIELLA DROPS DOWN TO A KNEE! MS. EXTREME SHAKES THE COBWEBS OUT OF HER HEAD, AND GRABS HOLD OF DANIELLA’S HAIR!
Deadprez: DANIELLA EXPLODES WITH ANOTHER FOREARM STRIKE- BUT MS. EXTREME RESPONDS WITH A KICK TO HER INJURED KNEE!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniella hobbles to the ropes, leaning against them for assistance, and I don’t know how much more she can take against Ms. Extreme.
Eve: Camille approaches Atlas, and goes to irish whip her off the ropes- BUT DANIELLA TURNS IT AROUND! GOING TO WHIP CAMILLE TOWARD THE ROPES INSTEAD! BUT MS. EXTREME WRINGS HER ARM TO DELIVER A KICK TO THE GUT! DANIELLA DOUBLES OVER, AND MS. EXTREME REACHES DOWN TO GRAB HOLD OF HER LEG!
Deadprez: CAMILLE MIGHT BE GOING FOR ANOTHER DRAGON SCREW ON DANIELLA! BUT ATLAS BACKS INTO THE CORNER ON ONE LEG!
(SNAP!!)
Eve: WHOA! DANIELLA USED THAT FREE LEG TO CRACK CAMILLE IN THE SKULL! IT SOUNDED LIKE A SLAP WITH HOW IT ECHOED THROUGHOUT THE ARENA!
Deadprez: MS. EXTREME STAGGERS BACK TO THE CENTER, AND SHE’S ON SPAGHETTI LEGS AFTER DANIELLA ROCKED HER WITH THAT KICK! ATLAS LOADS UP THE ARM, AND GINGERLY TROTS OUT THE CORNER TO DELIVER “INAMORATA!”
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME HAS IT SCOUTED WITH A BOOT TO THE ARM! DANIELLA TURNS AROUND, FAVORING SAID ARM BEFORE MS. EXTREME COMES FROM BEHIND WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX ATTEMPT! BUT DANIELLA MANAGES TO STAND HER GROUND, BLOCKING THE ATTEMPT BEFORE A WILD BACK ELBOW SWING!
Deadprez: MS. EXTREME NARROWLY DUCKS UNDERNEATH IT, AND DANIELLA SPINS AROUND TOWARD HER! GETTING PLANTED WITH A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! BUT DOESN’T BRIDGE FOR THE COVER, AND ROLLS THROUGH TO HER FEET!
Eve: MS. EXTREME LIFTS DANIELLA UP OFF THE GROUND IN POSITION FOR A SUPLEX OR MAYBE A BRAINBUSTER- BUT WE’LL NEVER KNOW AS BEFORE SHE COULD HOIST HER UP, DANIELLA SHIFTED THE MOMENTUM WITH A FALCON ARROW! DANIELLA PULLS THE LEG BACK FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHRRRRRRR-
Deadprez: ALMOST! DANIELLA ALMOST HER, BUT MS. EXTREME STILL HAS ENOUGH TO KICKOUT! REFUSING TO GIVE HER TITLE UP WITHOUT A FIGHT!
Eve: Well, a fight it has been between both women! You can look at the proof on Ms. Extreme’s face from going head first through the bottom of our announce table earlier!
Gavin Kirkland: Don’t remind me. I hate to see Camille in such peril.
Eve: I wonder why.
Gavin Kirkland: What? Can’t I be a concerned bystander??
Eve: Sure, if I didn’t know you, and how you think.
Deadprez: Both Ms. Extreme and Daniella are down with the wear and tear from this match beginning to show.
Eve: But signs of life are being shown as they both crawl into opposite corners, using the ropes for assistance in getting back to their feet. Ms. Extreme is still reeling from the falcon arrow, and Daniella is desperate to take advantage! Trying to get the blood flowing to her knee as she smacks on it repeatedly!
Deadprez: Daniella forms an intensity in her eyes like we haven’t seen it… BEFORE CHARGING CAMILLE IN THE OPPOSITE CORNER WITH A CLOTHESLINE! DANIELLA MUSTERED ENOUGH STRENGTH THERE TO BUILD MOMENTUM FOR A RUNNING CORNER CLOTHESLINE! THE FIRST TIME SHE’S BEEN ABLE TO HIT “INAMORATA” THROUGHOUT THIS MATCH!
Eve: Camille leans forward onto the shoulder of Daniella as she might out on her feet, unintentionally using Atlas a prop to stand before getting shoved back into the corner! Daniella has that arm loaded up for MULTIPLE clotheslines in the corner now as the crowd counts along!
Crowd: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TEN!
Deadprez: TEN CLOTHESLINES IN THAT CORNER AS DANIELLA HOISTS MS. EXTREME TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME IS LITERALLY BITING DANIELLA ON THE FOREHEAD BEFORE SHE CAN CLIMB UP! FIGHTING TOOTH AND NAIL TO RETAIN HER UNIVERSAL WOMENS CHAMPIONSHIP AS DANIELLA STAGGERS SLIGHTLY!
Deadprez: Ms. Extreme perches herself on the middle rope, and FLIES OFF! BUT DANIELLA SLIPS BEHIND HER! DANIELLA SLIPS BEHIND MS. EXTREME WITH A REAR WAISTLOCK, AND LAUNCHES HER INTO THE CORNER WITH A BUCKLE GERMAN SUPLEX!
Gavin Kirkland: THE BACK OF CAMILLE’S HEAD AND NECK HIT HARD AS SHE ROLLS OUT OF THE CORNER, AND QUICKLY RETURNS TO HER FEET OFF INSTINCT! STAGGERING BACK INTO ANOTHER REAR WAISTLOCK FROM DANIELLA!
Eve: DANIELLA DEADLIFTS MS. EXTREME OFF THE MAT, AND SLAMS HER DOWN WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! BEAUTIFUL BRIDGE FOR THE COVER BY ATLAS!
(Daniella holds the bridge, but has to lift her injured leg up as she’s unable to plant much weight on it.)
ONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHRRRRRRR-
Deadprez: TWO COUNT AS MS. EXTREME STAYS IN IT!
Eve: Daniella pounds the mat in building frustration! Usually, I don’t think she minds a fight. But Daniella knows it’s a race against time before that leg could completely give out on her, which is the one thing you want to avoid Ms. Extreme.
Deadprez: Daniella reaches down, and drags Ms. Extreme up by the hair… Daniella’s raising that arm, which I believe is signaling for an “Inamorata!” She hasn’t hit one in the traditional sense, and pounds on her knee before RUNNING OFF THE ROPES!
Eve: DANIELLA WENT FOR THAT LARIAT! BUT MS. EXTREME TRAPS THE ARM TO DELIVER HER SIGNATURE SPINNING NECKBREAKER CALLED “TWIST OF FATE!”
Gavin Kirkland: BUT DANIELLA DOES ANOTHER SPIN AROUND, AND SHOVES MS. EXTREME BACK INTO THE ROPES! MS. EXTREME REBOUNDS OFF AS DANIELLA BLESSES US BY DOUBLING OVER FOR A BACK BODY DROP!
Deadprez: BUT MS. EXTREME COUNTERS WITH A SUNSET FLIP! DANIELLA, HOWEVER, STANDS HER GROUND! AND REACHES DOWN TO GRAB MS. EXTREME BY THE THROAT WITH BOTH HANDS, DEADLIFTING HER UP INTO POSITION FOR A DOUBLE HANDED CHOKESLAM! PANIC IS ETCHED ACROSS THE FACE OF MS. EXTREME!
Eve: AND WITH THAT, SHE RAKES THE EYES OF ATLAS! DANIELLA HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO LET MS. EXTREME DOWN AS SHE DOUBLES OVER, AND MS. EXTREME DRAGS DANIELLA TO THE CENTER BEFORE CLUBBING HER ACROSS THE BACK! SOFTENING DANIELLA UP FOR “CODE RED!”
Deadprez: BUT DANIELLA JOLTS HERSELF UPRIGHT AS MS. EXTREME WAS RIDING HER BACK, AND CAMILLE LANDS ON HER FEET! SPINNING AROUND INTO AN “INAMORATA” ATTEMPT BY DANIELLA! BUT CAMILLE DUCKS UNDERNEATH THAT LARIAT ATTEMPT, AND RUNS OFF THE ROPES!
Eve: DISCUS “INAMORATA!” :damn: MS. EXTREME RAN RIGHT INTO A DISCUS VERSION OF THAT MOVE AS DANIELLA SPUN AROUND AFTER MISSING IT! TURNING HER OPPONENT INSIDE OUT!
Gavin Kirkland: DANIELLA ROUGHLY DRAGS CAMILLE BACK UP, AND HOIST HER FOR “ANIMUS!”
Deadprez: BUT CAMILLE! CAMILLE ESCAPES OUT OF THAT CRUCIFIX POSITION WITH THE “CODE RED!” IT CONNECTS! AND MS. EXTREME HOLDS IT FOR THE COVER ON ATLAS!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY! DANIELLA ATLAS FINDS A WAY TO SURVIVE! KICKING OUT OF THE CODE RED!
Deadprez: Daniella lies prone on the canvas, and likely has NO IDEA where she is right now after that maneuver! Ms. Extreme is growing increasingly annoyed with the fight out of Atlas, and lifts her up to a knee!
(Ms. Extreme screams down at Daniella while cupping her chin.)
Ms. Extreme: (off-mic) I told you, you weren’t ready!
(SLAP!)
Ms. Extreme: (off-mic) It’s my title! MINE!
(SLAP!!)
Eve: Ms. Extreme is showing Daniella whose boss, talking a little trash before lifting her up into position for a uranage! BUT DANIELLA FIGHTS HER OFF WITH BACK ELBOWS THAT STAGGER MS. EXTREME BACK SLIGHTLY! BOTH WOMEN ARE EXHAUSTED AS THEY’RE ON WOBBLY LEGS!
Deadprez: BUT MS. EXTREME FIRES BACK WITH A KICK TO THE KNEE! THAT STAGGERED DANIELLA A BIT, BUT MS. EXTREME WALKS RIGHT INTO A FOREARM!
Gavin Kirkland: MS. EXTREME IS STUNNED, BUT CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER KICK TO THE KNEE IN RESPONSE!
Eve: Hard to blame her for seeking out the easy target on Daniella’s body! But Daniella is gritting through the heavy amount of pain she’s in to FIRE BACK WITH FOREARM SHOTS TO THE FACE! FOREARM AFTER FOREARM FROM ATLAS!
Deadprez: DANIELLA GOES TO COMPLETE THE COMBO WITH A ROLLING ELBOW ON A STUNNED MS. EXTREME! BUT MS. EXTREME CAUGHT HER WITH A SUPERKICK BEFORE IT COULD CONNECT! ROCKING DANIELLA OUT ON HER FEET TOO, AND MS. EXTREME RUNS OFF THE ROPES! BUILDING MOMENTUM FOR A- BIG BOOT!
Eve: BIG BOOT FROM DANIELLA, USING HER INJURED LEG TO DO IT AS SHE STUMBLES A BIT TO THE ROPES! MEANWHILE, MS. EXTREME IS RUNNING OFF INSTINCT AS SHE RETURNS TO HER FEET, CLUTCHING AT HER JAW!
Gavin Kirkland: Daniella isn’t going to back down, and it’s both scary and hot the look in her eyes as she marches toward the dazed Ms. Extreme!
Deadprez: FOREARM! DANIELLA ALTERNATES WITH THE OTHER ONE, AND ALTERNATES AGAIN WITH THE OTHER ARM BEFORE A STIFF SPINNING BACK ELBOW KNOCKS MS. EXTREME BACK INTO THE CORNER!
Eve: Daniella hobbles over there, and lifts Ms. Extreme to the top turnbuckle! Daniella climbs up there herself, and hooks her up for a SUPERPLEX! BUT MS. EXTREME STARTS LOOSENING HER GRIP WITH SHOTS TO THE RIB CAGE, HAVING TO FULLY BREAK IT WITH SHOTS TO THE INJURED KNEE!
Deadprez: ATLAS REMAINS ON THAT MIDDLE ROPE, AND MS. EXTREME DOUBLES OVER! CLUBBING ACROSS THE BACK OF ATLAS REPEATEDLY! SETTING HER UP FOR AN AVALANCHE… CODE RED!! AVALANCHE CODE RED!!
Eve: ATLAS HAD A ROUGH LANDING AS SHE ROLLS AWAY FROM CAMILLE IN THE CORNER, AND LIES ON HER SIDE! CAMILLE SLIPS OUT UNDERNEATH THE BOTTOM ROPE TO THE APRON, AND STARTS CLIMBING TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AS DANIELLA BEGINS STIRRING!
Gavin Kirkland: Ms. Extreme has perched herself on the top rope! Daniella has no clue what’s coming as “The Phoenix Queen” DIVES OFF WITH A “GLASS CEILING!”
Deadprez: BLOCKED! DANIELLA BLOCKED THE STUNNER! STOPPING CAMILLE FROM GOING ALL THE WAY DOWN, AND PULLS HER UP INTO A SLEEPER HOLD! SLEEPER HOLD FROM ATLAS!
Eve: MS. EXTREME IS STARTING TO FADE, AND THATS WHEN DANIELLA SPINS HER AROUND INTO A SICKENING POWERBOMB! ATLAS PLANTED HER IN PERFECT POSITIONING AS SHE STARTS CLIMBING TO THE TOP ROPE! BUT DUE TO THE KNEE, SHE ISN’T MOVING EXTREMELY FAST UP THERE!
Deadprez: ITS NOT OFTEN DANIELLA GOES TO THE TOP ROPE, WHAT DOES SHE HAVE PLANNED?!
Eve: WHATEVER IT IS CANT BE GOOD AS DANIELLA PERCHES HERSELF ON THE TOP ROPE FOR A… DIVING SENTON! THATS 170 POUNDS COMING CRASHING DOWN ONTO MS. EXTREME! NO DOUBT KNOCKING THE WIND OUT OF HER SYSTEM AS DANIELLA ATLAS HOOKS THE LEG FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRR-
Gavin Kirkland: MS. EXTREME POPS THE SHOULDER UP! MAKING IT BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD FOR ATLAS!
Deadprez: Daniella likely thought that was it. She crushed Ms. Extreme with ALL her bodyweight, but Camille still manages to hang on! Though, I believe Daniella Atlas has had enough, and is ready to finish this as she drags Ms. Extreme up to her feet! GOING FOR “SOUTH OF HEAVEN!” HOISTING HER UP!
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME SLIPS OUT BEHIND ATLAS, GOING OVER HER SHOULDER, AND CLIPS THE KNEE WITH A CHOP BLOCK! CHOP BLOCK FROM MS. EXTREME SENDS DANIELLA DOWN TO ALL FOURS, AND MS. EXTREME GRABS HOLD OF THE ANKLE! ROLLING DANIELLA OVER, WHO SQUIRMS HER WAY TOWARDS THE ROPES! GRABBING HOLD OF THE BOTTOM WITH BOTH HANDS!
Deadprez: NOW, DANIELLA USES HER FREE LEG TO BOOT MS. EXTREME IN THE FACE REPEATEDLY UNTIL SHE STAGGERS BACK! DANIELLA PULLS HERSELF UP WITH ASSISTANCE FROM THE ROPES BEFORE CHARGING IN FOR AN “INAMORATA!”
Eve: BUT MS. EXTREME DUCKS UNDERNEATH! HOWEVER, DANIELLA CLUBS HER IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH A CLOTHESLINE INSTEAD! MS. EXTREME DOESN’T GO DOWN, BUT DOUBLES OVER SLIGHTLY ON SHAKY LEGS BEFORE DANIELLA RIPCORDS HER FOR AN “INAMORATA!”
Deadprez: MS. EXTREME GOES DOWN, BUT DANIELLA ISN’T DONE AS SHE DRAGS CAMILLE BACK UP BY THE HAIR! DANIELLA IS GOING FOR “ANIMUS” AS SHE HAS MS. EXTREME UP IN A CRUCIFIX POSITION!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT MS. EXTREME DROPS TO HER FEET BEHIND DANIELLA AS THE KNEE STARTED TO GIVE OUT, AND SHE FAVORS IT SLIGHTLY BEFORE GETTING HOOKED FROM BEHIND INTO A NECKBREAKER!
Eve: SHORTENED VERSION OF THE “TWIST OF FATE” BY MS. EXTREME, AND SHE CRAWLS INTO THE COVER ON DANIELLA!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEE-
Deadprez: ATLAS KICKS OUT! ATLAS KICKS OUT OF THE “TWIST OF FATE” BY CAMILLE, AND IT USED UP A TON OF ENERGY AS SHE LIES PRONE ON THE CANVAS! STRUGGLING TO GET HER WITS AS MS. EXTREME MARCHES TO THE CORNER WITH A PURPOSE!
Eve: Ms. Extreme is URGING Daniella to get back to her feet! Ready to put the finishing touches on this match as Daniella slowly stirs to a vertical base… MS. EXTREME SHOOTS OUT THE CORNER! GOING TO DELIVER “HOLY GROUND!”
Gavin Kirkland: :damn:
Deadprez: DANIELLA CAUGHT HER! DANIELLA ATLAS CAUGHT HER IN POSITION FOR A POWERBOMB, AND IMMEDIATELY LAUNCHES MS. EXTREME INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! DANIELLA KNEW SHE COULDN’T HOLD ONTO HER FOR LONG, AND QUICKLY RELEASED AS MS. EXTREME STAGGERS OUT THE CORNER! RUNNING INTO DANIELLA CENTER OF THE RING!
Eve: DANIELLA HOOKS HER UP, AND GOES TO PLANT HER WITH “SOUTH OF HEAVEN!”
Gavin Kirkland: BUT MS. EXTREME HAD ANOTHER TRICK UP HER SLEEVE! COUNTERING WITH A CANADIAN DESTROYER! CANADIAN DESTROYER ON DANIELLA! SPIKING ATLAS ONTO HER HEAD, AND POPS TO HER FEET BEFORE GROGGILY BOUNCING BACK AGAINST THE ROPES AFTER STUMBLING INTO THEM!
Deadprez: MS. EXTREME REMAINS SEATED ON THE CANVAS, AND WAITS FOR DANIELLA TO STAGGER INTO HER FOR A DROP TOE HOLD! DROP TOE HOLD TAKES ATLAS DOWN, AND MS. EXTREME QUICKLY TRANSITIONS INTO THE “AVA LOCK!” AVA LOCK APPLIED ON ATLAS!
Eve: THATS NOT JUST PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE KNEE, ITS PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE NECK AND BACK AS WELL! MS. EXTREME IS WRENCHING BACK ON IT! TIGHTENING HER HOLD ON DANIELLA WITH EVERY SECOND THAT PASSES!
Deadprez: DANIELLA IS REACHING FOR THE ROPES, BUT SHE’S SLAP DAB IN THE CENTER OF THE RING! I HATE TO SAY ITS OVER, BUT IT MIGHT BE OVER, DAWG!
Gavin Kirkland: DANIELLA IS BEGINNING TO FADE! I GUESS SEEING THESE LADIES OUT HERE WAS GOOD WHILE IT LASTED!
Eve: HANG ON! IT MIGHT NOT BE OVER YET AS DANIELLA STARTS CLAWING HER WAY TOWARDS THE ROPES! INCHING CLOSER AND CLOSER UNTIL…
Deadprez: ROPE BREAK! DANIELLA GRABS HOLD OF THE BOTTOM ROPE, BUT MS. EXTREME ISN’T LETTING GO!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! …
Eve: REFEREE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO COUNT FIVE THERE, BUT DOES HIS BEST TO AVOID ENDING THE MATCH IN SUCH A WAY! PRYING MS. EXTREME OFF THE HOLD AS SHE SEEMS TO HAVE GOTTEN TOO CARRIED AWAY!
(Daniella slithers out underneath the bottom rope, and to the apron where she sits down clutching at her knee.)
Gavin Kirkland: Daniella escaped, but the damage has been done further to that knee! Ms. Extreme has a smirk on her face as she steps out to the apron, closing in on Daniella as she tries to scoot back for further separation!
Deadprez: BUT MS. EXTREME REACHES DOWN TO THE GRAB THE LEG BEFORE DANIELLA USES BOTH FEET TO SHOVE MS. EXTREME BACK FIRST INTO THE RINGPOST!
Eve: MS. EXTREME REMAINS STANDING, ALBEIT STRUGGLING AS DANIELLA USES ASSISTANCE FROM THE ROPES BACK UP TO HER FEET ON THE APRON! MS. EXTREME IGNORES THE PAIN FOR NOW AS FURY WASHES OVER HER TO CHARGE ATLAS ON THE APRON- BUT GETS LAUNCHED OVERHEAD WITH A BACK BODY DROP!
(SMACK!!)
Gavin Kirkland: DID YOU HEAR THAT THUD AS CAMILLE’S BODY SPLATTED OFF THE RINGSIDE FLOOR?!
Deadprez: SHE HIT HARD! REMEMBER, THAT FLOOR HAS VERY THIN PADDING!
(Daniella immediately collapsed to all fours on the apron off that back body drop, but grits through the pain as she drops off to retrieve Ms. Extreme.)
Eve: Camille gets rolled back inside the ring by Atlas, who slides in herself! Daniella starts to hook her up! GOING FOR ANOTHER SOUTH OF HEAVEN- BUT MS. EXTREME COUNTERS WITH A DDT- NOPE! ATLAS WAS EXPECTING ANOTHER COUNTER, AND BLOCKS THE DDT ATTEMPT BEFORE DEADLIFTING CAMILLE UP FOR A SUPLEX!
Deadprez: MS. EXTREME LANDS A COUPLE KNEES TO THE DOMES, FORCING DANIELLA TO LET HER DOWN AS SHE DOUBLES OVER SLIGHTLY! AND MS. EXTREME USES THE CHANCE TO RUN OFF THE ROPES FOR HOLY GROUND!!!
Eve: BUT DANIELLA LAUNCHES HER OVERHEAD WITH AN ALLEY OOP, AND SENDS MS. EXTREME THROAT FIRST INTO THE TOP ROPE BEFORE SHE STAGGERS BACK INTO A “BLACK DEATH!!!”
Deadprez: ROLLING ELBOW TO THE BACK OF CAMILLE’S HEAD SENDS HER DOWN TO A KNEE AGAINST THE MIDDLE ROPE! DANIELLA PULL HER AWAY TO THE CENTER! GOING TO SIGN, SEAL, AND DELIVER THIS WITH THING WITH SOUTH OF HEAVEN!!
Eve: IT CONNECTS! BUT DANIELLA MIGHT HAVE REAGGRAVATED HER KNEE AS SHE HAD TO DROP THEM TO LAND THE MOVE! DANIELLA CLUTCHES AT IT IN PAIN, BUT GRITS THROUGH IT AS SHE NOTICES MS. EXTREME DOWN AND OUT AFTER ROLLING AWAY SLIGHTLY! DANIELLA DRAGS HERSELF OVER TO THE CHAMPION!
Gavin Kirkland: HOOKING THE LEG FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
…
…
…
Gavin Kirkland: DANIELLA IS CHAMPION! DANIELLA IS CHAMPION!
Eve: CORRECTION! SHE WOULD BE CHAMPION IF IT WEREN’T FOR MS. EXTREME GETTING HER FOOT ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! IN A RUSH, DANIELLA HOOKED THE INSIDE LEG INSTEAD OF THE OUTSIDE!
Deadprez: DANIELLA IS ANNOYED, BUT ULTIMATELY MAINTAINS HER FOCUS! DRAGGING MS. EXTREME BACK TO A VERTICAL BASE! KNOWING WHAT SHE HAS TO DO NEXT! DANIELLA HOOKS THE ARM, BUT HAS A HAD TIME REACHING THROUGH THE LEGS FOR THE OTHER ONE!
Eve: BUT BEFORE SHE CAN GET HOLD OF IT, MS. EXTREME SPRINGS INTO ACTION! STARTING TO WRESTLE DANIELLA DOWN BY THE ARM FOR “RED HANDED!” BUT CAN ONLY GET HER TO ALL FOURS! MS. EXTREME TRIES TO LOCK THE HOLD IN, BUT DANIELLA SLIPS HER ARM FREE, AND TURNS IT INTO A SCHOOL GIRL!
Deadprez: BUT MS. EXTREME ROLLS THROUGH TO HER FEET, BOUNCING BACK AGAINST THE ROPES AS DANIELLA RETURNS TO A KNEE—
Gavin Kirkland: HOLY GROUND!!
Eve: MS. EXTREME REBOUNDED BACK WITH HOLY GROUND!!! DANIELLA ATLAS HAD NO WAY TO SEE THAT COMING, AND NOW MS. EXTREME SCRAMBLES INTO THE PIN! HAVING PUT A CRATER IN DANIELLA ATLAS’ CHEST!
ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
…
…
…
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: HERES YOUR WINNER… AND STILL EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION… MS. EXTREME!
(Ms. Extreme releases the cover as “’The Emptiness Machine’ by Linkin Park plays to a mixed reception from the audience. Ms. Extreme rolls off the cover, exhausted. Daniella lies there motionless as well with both women showing the scars from battle, especially Ms. Extreme after being busted open earlier.)
Eve: Fantastic match from both women, who left it all on the line out there!
Deadprez: Daniella came EXTREMELY close (no pun intended) to winning the match, but the knee had cost her with the recovery room given to Ms. Extreme, along with the decision to hook the outside leg instead of the inside.
Eve: But Daniella was in so much pain, I imagine she wasn’t thinking straight. Just looking to get the match over at that point.
Gavin Kirkland: It was hard for me to think straight throughout tonight’s affair, but I’d still say both women did a great job! Ms. Extreme with shades of Harper Lee by being a dominant champion, and defending her title!
Deadprez: I- you know what? Nevermind. Congratulations to Camille, and better luck next time to the challenger, Daniella Atlas!
(Ms. Extreme gets the Universal Women’s Championship draped over her body by the referee, and Camille scoots back against the ropes, seated up against them as she looks down at her title with a satisfied smile. Shortly after this, the camera fades to black elsewhere.)
(The graphic for the next match flashes on the screen.)

Bella Braxton: The following contest is the DIVIDE AND CONQUER MATCH!
(‘Ballad of a Prodigal Son’ by Lincoln Durham hits the speakers and Kirk Redwood marches out from the back, leading the charge for his team. David Gideon Smith is next to walk out, all business tonight. Grace De Luca skips out, extending her arms and trying to take the spotlight for herself—which doesn’t go over well with Chiyo Gedo who is trailing behind her. Diego Montana still looks less than thrilled about having to follow Kirk Redwood’s lead tonight.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first! The team of DIEGO MONTANA, CHIYO GEDO, GRACE DE LUCA, DAVID GIDEON SMITH, and KIRK REDWOOD… they are TEAM VYNASTY!
Stew-O: Surprisingly, “Team Vynasty” has caught on as a name over the last couple of weeks, but there is still no telling if the Elitists of Dynasty and Voltage will be willing to co-exist to the very end tonight. We know that Diego Montana isn’t exactly keen with having to team with Chiyo Gedo, let alone acknowledge Kirk Redwood as the leader of this team. But Redwood is the most suited to lead the team, though there is a lot of talent here, no doubt about it.
Persephone: It helps that Redwood sticks out like a sore thumb with that bald head of his. It makes way more sense to tag along with him as the captain of this team than try to get in a fight with him, I’ll say that much.
(As all members of Vynasty settle in the ring, ‘Homecoming’ by Lil Uzi Vert is next to blare throughout the arena and Brianna Hill makes her way out, flanked by Silas Mason. Vincent Mondrian isn’t far behind Brianna, sneering at the competition in the ring. Matthew Kazama paces out from the back, pumping his fist. And lastly, Clayton Golde and Bridget Bridget of #Hashtag follow the rest of the team out, live streaming their entrance off of their phones.)
Bella Braxton: Their opponents, the team of VINCENT MONDRIAN, MATTHEW KAZAMA, CLAYTON GOLDE, BRIDGET BRIDGET and BRIANNA HILL… they are TEAM SHOWDOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: Now it makes perfect sense why Brianna Hill is the team captain of Team Showdown! She’s a former Specialists Champion, she’s got Silas Mason in her corner, and this entire week, she’s shown that she absolutely has what it takes to bring her team to victory! And along the way, Vincent Mondrian has proven to be very determined as well. This is a big stage for Matthew Kazama and #Hashtag though, but I can’t see why Showdown don’t have this one in the bag!
Stew-O: I’m not arguing that they don’t have a very strong team at their disposal, but so does Vynasty. Captain Charisma and Tyrone Montgomery are two great executives and they’ve done their job very well for–
Gavin Kirkland: Are you saying Kennedy Street isn’t up to par with her male counterparts?!
Stew-O: … Never said that, but I wouldn’t be putting any labels until this one gets going. This is looking to be a great matchup, no doubt about it. You can just see from the five on both sides, these Elitists all want it, but at the end of it, it’ll only come down to the members from one of these teams.
(DING DING DING!)
Stew-O: We’re off to the races, as Matthew Kazama of Showdown is starting this match, and Diego Montana of Vynasty is kicking this one off. Nonetheless, both engage in a collar and elbow tie-up and Kazama is quick to transition into a wristlock. Diego’s got his work cut out for him, especially as he feels this could be the night where he finally wins Eden Sinclair over.
Persephone: You can’t really do much worse than Ronan Malosi, but I digress.
Gavin Kirkland: Diego is struggling to get out of that wristlock, and he’s shouting at the referee—as if the referee can do anything about it. He presses his hand down on the face of Kazama and starts to forcefully push him against the ropes. Diego snaps out of the wrist lock, taking Matthew’s wrist and irish whipping him across the ring! Diego swings a clothesline right for the skull of Kazama, but he ducks underneath!
Stew-O: And he sends him back with a dropkick right to the chest! Montana rolls away, holding his chest in agony. He staggers up and Kazama nails him with a forearm, and then a knife edge chop. Diego falls against the ropes, wincing. And so far, his teammates don’t look very impressed. Diego kicks Matthew in the ribs, and he takes the head, swinging into a neckbreaker, no! Kazama spins out and he lifts him up for a back suplex!
Persephone: With this performance, maybe I was wrong. Diego is somehow already writhing in pain on the canvas, and Kazama rises to his feet and leaps into a legdrop right on the chest of Diego. He rises to his feet and he gets him with another one! Come on, just move out of the way!
Gavin Kirkland: Easier said than done when you’re in pain! Kazama pulls Diego up and he brings him to the ropes. Kazama tries an irish whip, but Diego counters it! He comes off the ropes, but Matthew with a beautiful slingblade! Diego rises to his feet afterwards and Kazama catches his wrist, spinning him around. Kick to the gut, followed by a hook of the head and a beautiful snap suplex! First cover of the match!
Referee: ONE!
Stew-O: But Diego kicks out at one! Matthew drags Diego up and he brings him to their corner, tagging in Vincent Mondrian.
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: Matthew holds Diego in place, meanwhile Vincent comes off the ropes and leaps into a dropkick right to the ribcage! Diego falls to his fours, nursing the side of his body in agony. The referee approaches him, checking on Diego.
Stew-O: Mondrian is up to his feet and he marches towards Diego, ready to keep the attack up…
Persephone: Is he calling for a fucking timeout???
Diego Montana: (off-mic) Wait—wait—I think I pulled something…
Stew-O: Well if Montana was injured, then surely the referee would have to medically eliminate him from the match, putting Vynasty down a member early on! I don’t hope to see him out of the match so soon, but that was a pretty nasty dropkick-
Gavin Kirkland: IT WAS A RUSE! MONTANA RAKES THE EYES OF MONDRIAN! And Mondrian staggers back, holding his eyes in pain! Montana starts throwing all kinds of slaps and punches to the skull of Vincent, who covers up, caught completely off guard by that!
Persephone: That was the smartest thing I’ve ever seen him do. Montana grabs Mondrian and pulls him to the center of the ring. He scoops him up and drops into a backbreaker in the center of the ring! All he has to do is keep it up, which is definitely wishful thinking…
Stew-O: Mondrian is holding at his back in pain, and Montana drags him up. He hooks the arms and he lifts him up, swinging into a butterfly suplex! The first thing Diego does is rise to his feet and point to Kazama. Is he really trying to insinuate he has better suplexes?! Is now the time for that?
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t get this Diego guy whatsoever. He walks over to the corner and tags in David Gideon Smith.
(TAG!)
Stew-O: DGS enters the ring and Mondrian slowly kneels up, and he comes barreling in with a stiff penalty kick! Down goes Mondrian, and DGS follows up with a pinfall!
Referee: ONE!
Persephone: Vincent kicks out at one. That’s unfortunate. I would like to see a two count at the very least. These guys just aren’t hurting each other enough for my liking.
Stew-O: Well, I’m glad they’re not wrestling for you, Persephone. DGS pulls Vincent up and turns him around, but before he can grab the waist, Vincent sends a back elbow to the jaw! He sends another one! DGS is stunned, and Vincent spins out into an enzuigiri! DGS drops to a knee, and Vincent has the change to follow that one up!
Gavin Kirkland: He rises to his feet and runs off the ropes, but David pops him up in the air! He catches him on his shoulders, but Vincent wraps his legs around the arms, hooking back and transitioning into an octopus stretch instead! Vincent digs his elbow into the ribs of David, and I don’t think he was expecting this counter whatsoever!
Stew-O: Absolutely not! DGS tries to force his way out of it, but Vincent is stretching him out right now! His core has to be killing him at this point, but before Vincent can really tighten it in, DGS runs backwards!
Persephone: And he bounces Vincent’s head off the middle turnbuckle! He’s still breathing, try it one more time!
Gavin Kirkland: I think he heard you! David marches forward in an attempt to do so, but Vincent slips to his feet behind him. He runs David face-first into the turnbuckles! Vincent holds the back of his head, wincing. But while David is stunned, Vincent runs forward with an ELBOW TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD—AND IT BOUNCES FACE-FIRST INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! David falls to the canvas and Vincent tags in Brianna Hill!
Stew-O: Before Brianna can enter the ring though, Vincent climbs to the middle rope and he dives into a double foot stomp to the chest of DGS! He rolls out and now Brianna climbs to the top rope, and she leaps off with a DIVING ELBOW DROP! Tandem offense from Team Showdown, and Brianna pulls him away from the ropes, making the cover!
Referee: ONEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOO!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Grace De Luca enters the ring and she stomps the back of Brianna! Pin broken! Brianna rolls away, holding her back. Grace isn’t done, she’s still stomping Brianna out! Brianna covers up to the best of her ability—
Persephone: But Bridget Bridget storms into the ring and she tackles Grace down! Are you kidding me?! The two most insufferable people in this entire match are brawling in the ring right now. And to their credit, they’re trying to rip each other apart!
Stew-O: The referee is doing everything in their power to get these two to get off one another and stop fighting, but that is a difficult task right now!
Gavin Kirkland: Meanwhile, Brianna rises to her feet and she leaps into a knee to the back of Grace! Grace bumps into Bridget and both women spill out the middle rope to the floor. Brianna turns around to DGS, who grabs her by the waist! He lifts her up in backdrop position, and drops into a SIT-OUT CHOKESLAM! ‘Caedomorph CLAW’ connects! David hooks the legs!
Referee: ONEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOO!!!
Stew-O: But Brianna gets a shoulder up! David kneels up, looking around. He rises to his feet and drags Brianna by the wrist to his corner, tagging in Chiyo Gedo.
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: Gedo enters the ring and the two lift Brianna up at the same time in unison. They bring her to the ropes and irish whip her off! Brianna completely defenseless as Chiyo and David storm into a big boot at the same time, and that flattens her in the center of the ring! David dusts his hands off and he exits the ring, but the captain of Team Showdown is not in a good way whatsoever.
Persephone: Meanwhile “Vynasty”’s captain, Kirk Redwood is just chilling on the apron like nothing’s going on…
Stew-O: Don’t be dense, he’s just waiting to get in this one. Chiyo pulls Brianna up to her feet and he grabs her by the wrist, scooping her up, and he immediately slams her into the canvas with a uranage slam! Brianna hits the mat hard, and Chiyo smirks. He’s not done yet, though!
Gavin Kirkland: Chiyo drags Brianna up and takes her by the head, lifting her up for a brainbuster—no! Brianna slips behind! AND SHE LEAPS INTO A BACKSTABBER! HER KNEES DIGGING INTO THE SPINE OF GEDO! Brianna rolls over, crawling to her corner, and she leaps forward!
(TAG!)
Persephone: Bridget Bridget is in, and she’s fired up after that brawl with Grace! Chiyo rises, and these two had history with each other on Voltage! Chiyo throws the first strike and they’re trading blows in the center of the ring! Chiyo winds back an elbow, but Bridget kicks his knee out!
Stew-O: She bounces off the ropes and takes Chiyo out with a running knee to the jaw! He rolls away, holding at his lip. Chiyo staggers up afterwards and Bridget leaps onto his shoulders, tossing him with a hurricanrana! Gedo is not looking good whatsoever right now!
Persephone: Everyone is just making Voltage look bad tonight… :cmon:
Gavin Kirkland: Chiyo slowly rises and Bridget starts throwing kicks at the chest and legs. Chiyo covers up, and she backs up! BRIDGET CALLS FOR THE END EARLY! ‘BRIDGE-KICK!’ RIGHT TO THE JAW!
Stew-O: Nope! He had it scouted out! Gedo takes the ankle of Bridget, and he spins her out! Bridget is off balance as Chiyo leaps forward! ‘FATAL HEAD TRAUMA!’ THE LEAPING DDT RIGHT TO THE SKULL! Bridget is spiked, and crumbles to the canvas as Chiyo makes the cover!
Referee: ONEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOO!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Clayton Golde leaps in, breaking the pin and saving his partner from defeat! Diego Montana inches in the ring, is he actually going to take up for Chiyo Gedo?!
Stew-O: He’s hesitating!
Persephone: AND CLAYTON GOLDE JUST THROWS A KNOCKOUT PUNCH, SENDING HIM OFF THE APRON! THAT IDIOT! HE SHOULD’VE MADE A CHOICE!
Stew-O: But while Clayton is basking in his knockout, Grace grabs his head and yanks his throat into the top rope, with that hot shot! Golde staggers backwards, and Gedo captures the waist of Clayton, throwing him overhead with a german suplex!
Gavin Kirkland: Clayton rolls out of the ring, and Grace calls for Chiyo, who crawls over!
(TAG!)
Persephone: Grace is in the ring now, and Bridget has no clue of where she’s at. Grace sees this, and he spins into the ‘GRACE-FUL’ CLOTHESLINE! NO! Bridget ducks under, you’ve gotta be kidding me!
Stew-O: Don’t be so sure that she was bested, Persephone! Both women run forward-
Gavin Kirkland: ‘BITTERSWEET CHIN MUSIC!’ GRACE HITS BRIDGET WITH THE SUPERKICK BEFORE SHE CAN USE IT! AND DE LUCA MAKES THE COVER!
Referee: ONEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEE!!!!
Bella Braxton: BRIDGET BRIDGET HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
Persephone: Grace is celebrating her victory, but she needs to focus… because Brianna Hill dropkicks Grace in the back, and she stumbles forward!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: DGS tags himself in, and he waits for Brianna! ‘THE BLACK BLADE!” LARIAT RIGHT TO THE HEAD! WAIT! BRIANNA DUCKS UNDER AND SHOVES DAVID FORWARD!
Gavin Kirkland: MONDRIAN WITH AN ENZUIGIRI RIGHT TO THE HEAD, DESPITE BEING ON THE APRON! David staggers back and falls to a knee, holding his head, setting Brianna up!
Stew-O: ‘HITS DIFFERENT!’ THE SHINING WIZARD FLATTENS HIM! STRAIGHT KNEE TO THE JAW OF DAVID! AND BRIANNA PINS HIM!
Persephone: Referee, he wasn’t legal, DO SOMETHING!
Referee: ONEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEE!!!!
Bella Braxton: David Gideon Smith has been eliminated!
Persephone: Well goddamn, David put up a strong effort but it becomes a bit too much there. Vynasty is down one & I’m not too sure where this can go from here—
Gavin Kirkland: ROLLING ELBOW FROM KIRK NAILS VINCENT ACROSS THE TEMPLE!! Mondrian is sent staggering through the ropes as Redwood welcomes himself into the fray!!!
Stew-O: Brianna is wide eyed as she doesn’t have any time to celebrate that pin, rising upward to a knee—BUT REDWOOD WITH A KNEE THAT KNOCKS BRIANNA FOR A LOOP!
Persephone: Clayton slid out of the ring, dragging himself upward after being rocked by the suplex that Chiyo sent his way there—BUT KIRK’S NOT WASTING TIME HERE! NO WASTED MOTION ‘CAUSE HE’S RUSHING FORWARD & TOWARD GOLDE HERE—
Gavin Kirkland: SUICIDE DIVE!!!! KIRK DROPS—HE DROPS DIEGO??!?
Stew-O: CLAYTON YANKED DIEGO OVER AND CAUSED KIRK TO LAND FLUSH ONTO A TEAMMATE OF HIS! KIRK TAKES DIEGO DOWN INSTEAD OF CLAYTON!
Persephone: I mean…? Is that not what you want to do anyway…? That’s only his teammate for the moment.
Gavin Kirkland: No time to ponder as Kirk is now rising upward—BUT CLAYTON HAS THE ANSWER WITH A SLAM OF KIRK’S FACE OVER THE APRON!! Golde now has a wide smile on his face as he’s revving up a big one! ‘DEMONITIZED’ DISCUS ELBOW!
Stew-O: ‘LETHAL ROUND’!!! SUDDEN LARIAT FROM REDWOOD TURNS GOLDE INSIDE OUT!!! Kirk didn’t give any quarter to Clayton after that impact, with Golde laid out at ringside as Redwood slides himself back into the ring, focusing on Brianna—
Gavin Kirkland: ‘BREAKTHROUGH’!!!! RUNNING ENZIGURI FROM BRIANNA NAILS KIRK ACROSS THE SKULL TO DROP HIM!!! Pop the bottles early ‘cause Brianna has just secured another elimination for Showdown right here! The cover!
Referee: ONEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREE—
Persephone: As if, Kirk kicks out! Brianna’s shaking her head but she’s keeping focused enough, rising back up to her feet and looking to seal the fate of Redwood…
Stew-O: ‘Cause Brianna’s dragging herself upward, focused on Kirk as he’s able to rise to his feet in a more fastened pace—WITH A ‘HITS DIFFERENT’ HEADED HIS WAY FROM BRIANNA!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT KIRK LEAPS UPWARD BEFORE BRIANNA COULD EVEN GET THE CHANCE—AND TRAPS HER IN ‘SOLITARY CONFINEMENT’!!! ARM TRIANGLE CHOKE IS APPLIED & BRIANNA IS IN TROUBLE!!!!
Persephone: Vynasty might be in big trouble with Brianna trapped here!!! Kirk is shaking his his head vigorously ‘cause he’s refusing to let this turn into an opportunity wasted! Brianna’s doing everything that she can to drag herself toward the corner, but Kirk’s wrenching further!!!!
(TAG!)
Stew-O: THE TAG IS MADE—AS KAZAMA LEAPS OVER THE TOP ROPE & NAILS A LEG DROP RIGHT OVER KIRK REDWOOD! Kazama has sprawled into the match as Redwood finds himself in the driver’s seat of trouble!!!
Gavin Kirkland: As Kazama is now looking to make the most out of this moment with the former Unified Tag Team Champion, nodding to himself while Redwood is staggering upward as he sets him into position—FOR THE DOUBLE UNDERHOOK DDT—
Persephone: BUT KIRK TWISTS OUT OF THE HOLD—WITH A STIFF ELBOW COLLIDING WITH THE TEMPLE OF KAZAMA, STAGGERING HIM AS HE RUSHES BACK TOWARD HIM FOR THE ‘PAROLE VIOLATION’!!!!!
Stew-O: BUT BRIANNA SHOVES VINCENT TOWARD THEIR CORNER—AND TAKES THE SPEAR FROM KIRK!!! BRIANNA ALLOWS FOR KAZAMA TO EVADE DISASTER!!!!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: AS KIRK’S RISING BACK UP TO HIS FEET, UNDERSTANDING HE NAILED THE WRONG PERSON! REDWOOD’S MOTIONING UPWARD!
Persephone: ‘DEVIL TRICK’ FROM KAZAMA STAGGERS KIRK!!! VINCENT RUSHES INTO THE RING AFTER TAGGING HIMSELF IN, DRAGGING REDWOOD IN POSITION AFTER THE 540 KICK—

Gavin Kirkland: AND HERE’S GRACE SENDING A BOOT ACROSS VINCENT’S JAW TO STAGGER HIM BACK INTO THE CORNER!!! Grace De Luca finds herself back into the match!
(TAG!)
Persephone: Ugh, as Grace is now rushing toward the corner while Vincent is leaned back—BUT CLAYTON HITS THE RING & ROCKS DE LUCA WITH A SUPERKICK!! I should’ve expected a scumbag to slither his way back into the match.
Stew-O: As Grace is left staggered!!! Clayton remains increasingly confident as he’s looking for roll himself right around with a ONE INCH PUNCH—
Gavin Kirkland: POP-UP HAYMAKER FROM GRACE DE LUCA IS ABLE TO LAND!! Grace causes Clayton to stagger back into the ropes, as she sees her chance to rush forward with the ‘BITTERSWEET CHIN MUSIC’!
Persephone: ‘DEMONITIZED’ NAILS GRACE ACROSS THE SKULL!! Grace is dropped downward as Clayton finds himself stumbling back and clutching onto the ropes after the impact!!! Clayton is grinning from ear to ear, he’s got enough up his sleeve…
Stew-O: ‘CAUSE NOW HE’S RUSHING OVER, LOOKING TO TRAP GRACE FOR THE WORST TO COME WITH THE ‘LAW OF ATTRITION’ BOSTON CRAB!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: IT SHOULD BE ME! NOT HIM! ME—CHIYO’S RISING UP TO THE APRON! HE’S GONNA RUSH HIMSELF IN TO HELP GRACE!
Stew-O: BUT CLAYTON GETS OFF OF GRACE TO NAIL THE ONE INCH PUNCH ACROSS THE JAW OF GEDO! Chiyo with a hand over his jaw as Clayton now finds his attention returning back to Grace—

Gavin Kirkland: CHIYO WITH A LOW DROPKICK ACROSS THE SKULL OF KAZAMA TO STOP THE COUNT!!! Kazama is clutching onto his own head while Chiyo is now dragging Grace over to their corner for the tag!
(TAG!)
Persephone: And here Chiyo goes, he’s really gonna have to saddle up & got this match favoring Vynasty further here. He’s keeping an eye on Kazama, nodding to himself as he’s looking to line up a real haymaker here…
Stew-O: LOOKING FOR THE ‘HEAT SEEKER’—KAZAMA DUCKS UNDER & RUSHES THE ROPES AS CHIYO LOOKS TO TURN—
Persephone: SLINGBLADE!!! SLINGBLADE PUTS A HALT TO CHIYO’S TRACKS AS HE’S LEFT TO THE CANVAS! I shouldn’t be happy about it but it looks like another elimination is revving up…
Gavin Kirkland: As Kazama is now making his way up to the top turnbuckle, with his focus deadset on Chiyo while he’s down!!! Kazama finds ground and HE’S GONNA LAUNCH OFF FOR THE 450 SPLASH!!!
Stew-O: CHIYO ROLLS AWAY—AND KAZAMA LANDS ONTO HIS FEET AS HE ROLLS THROUGH! Chiyo is quickly motioning back up to his feet as Kazama’s looking to tread back up to Gedo—BUT CHIYO DUCKS HIS CROSS HEAD KICK, AND TAKES HOLD OF KAZAMA!!! CHIYO IS SETTING KAZAMA IN POSITION FOR ‘SWIFT ENDING’!!!

Gavin Kirkland: HAHA YESSSSS! SHOWDOWN IS ALL THAT’S LEFT IN THIS MATCH!!! VYNASTY IS OUT OF HERE! GONNA MISS LOOKING AT MS. DE LUCA THOUGH!
(Grace is wide eyed, shaking her own head as she understands a Showdown victory is now guaranteed. The official directs her to leave, as she doesn’t spare the glance as she remains upset while motioning up the ramp.)
Stew-O: Brianna is bringing herself upward—WHILE VINCENT’S GOT A HOLD OF HER FINGERS! THIS IS NOW BETWEEN HIMSELF AND BRIANNA AS SHE’S TRYING TO PRY HERSELF FREE—
Gavin Kirkland: ‘PORTRAIT OF PAIN’!!!! BRIANNA’S CLUTCHING ONTO HER FINGERS AS VINCENT JUST CRACKED HER FINGERS!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEE!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER OF DIVIDE & CONQUER…. REPRESENTING SHOWDOWN, VINCENTTTTT MONDRIAN!!!
(‘Lacrimosa’ can be heard throughout the speakers as Vincent breathes heavily, nodding to himself as he finds himself rising up to his feet as the referee raises his hand in victory. Brianna can be seen clutching onto her neck, grimacing as Grace walks up the ramp with a scowl of her own.)
Stew-O: Quite the performance by Vincent Mondrian tonight as he is the victor of Divide & Conquer! Was becoming a rather heated back & forth that Brianna was looking to take advantage of, but distraction from Grace ultimately costs Brianna Hill the opportunity!
Gavin Kirkland: Oh god, look who’s motioning on into the ring! We should’ve figured this out after he took the victory!
(The audience reacts negatively as Silas Mason can be seen entering the ring, with Vincent looking toward him as Brianna’s still sitting against the apron, looking toward Silas, who extends his hand to Vincent with a grin.)
Persephone: You’ve got to be kidding me, we’ve seen this bald fuck more than enough times to count…
(Vincent shakes his hand, with a smirk as Silas nods, and he turns, heading toward the ropes as he exits with Vincent following.)
Stew-O: Silas has certainly taken notice of Vincent tonight through his victory, and that much is becoming realized here! Brianna is not at all enthused, but congratulations to Vincent Mondrian…
(Silas gives the glance to Brianna, with a nod as he continues to walk up the ramp. Vincent follows suit, as Brianna maintains an aggravating expression while shaking her head, following behind Silas as the scene pans out.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, the following triple threat match is scheduled for ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Stephie Love: AND IT IS FOR THE EAW SPECIALISTS CHAMPIONSHIP!
(‘Judas’ by Lady Gaga began blaring through the speakers to loud cheers as Holly Arrow stormed out from behind the stage curtains, looking as fiercely determined as ever as she narrowed her eyes towards the squared circle. She marched down the ramp, making her way into the ring.)
Stephie Love: INTRODUCING FIRST! Hailing from Liverpool, England, weighing in at 149 pounds… she is THE LODESTAR, HOLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! AAAAAAAAAAAAAARROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!
Stew-O: It’s finally time for the fate of the Specialists Championship to be decided, and it’s going to be a very difficult match to call considering how intensely determined all three women involved in the match are!
Flannery McCoy: It’d be difficult to find anyone more determined than Holly Arrow, who has been scratching and clawing her way towards singles championship gold for her entire career, and despite the setbacks and the betrayal she has faced in her life she remains as steadfast as ever!
Jake Mercer: Without a doubt, Holly Arrow is looking to tie up all the loose ends she can tonight as she takes aim at not only the Specialists Champion herself, but a woman she has had many problems with throughout this season!
(“The End” by Lil Uzi Vert (feat. BABYMETAL) began blaring through the speakers to loud cheers as KASAI swaggered out, adorned by facepaint, and made her way to the center of the stage with an eccentric stride. She laughed her signature laugh before storming down the ramp towards the ring.)
Stephie Love: AND HER OPPONENT! Hailing from Amani, Kagoshima, Japan, weighing in at 145 pounds… she is THE IMMORTAL SLAYER, KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!
Stew-O: A former Specialists Champion in her own right, KASAI is looking to further cement her legacy in EAW by aiming to win the Specialists Championship for a second time tonight!
Flannery McCoy: Like Holly, KASAI has problems with both the Lodestar and the current Specialists Champion, so you can be sure that she’s looking to wipe them all out and prove her doubters wrong!
Jake Mercer: With the Urai family’s reputation preceding her every match, KASAI believes she cannot let them down and has no intention of doing so tonight with gold on her mind!
(‘Cult Leader’ by KiNG MALA began playing to tremendous boos as the lights dimmed until the arena was covered with darkness; through the dark, a single spotlight pierced through to the stage curtains, illuminating Mia Santoro as she emerged with the Specialists Championship draped over her shoulder. The spotlight followed her as she raised the title and made her way down the ramp, basking in her own presence as she went to the ring.)
Stephie Love: INTRODUCING LAST! Hailing from Key West, Florida, weighing in at 115 pounds… she is THE EAW SPECIALISTS CHAMPION, THE OBSESSION… MIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! SAAAAAAAAAAAANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Stew-O: Finally, we have the attention-hungry Specialists Champion herself, who insisted that the spotlight be on her and her alone for her entrance as she did not want to give even a second of the limelight to anyone, least of all her opponents!
Flannery McCoy: Mia Santoro is willing to do anything and everything it takes to be able to retain the title and make sure that she remains the world’s obsession, even if that means playing dirty!
Jake Mercer: That’s all in the name of the game, Flannery, you’ve got to do what it takes to be champion and that’s exactly what Mia is going to do tonight!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Stew-O: And the match is underway! All three ladies carefully emerge from their corners as they eye each other, measuring the enemies up as they look to figure out how exactly this match is going to play out!
Flannery McCoy: Triple threat matches always tend to be tricky because you need to be able to have eyes on the back of your head; if you’re only focusing on one of your opponents, you’ll leave yourself totally open for the third opponent to be able to capitalize from behind and steal away your momentum!
Jake Mercer: Not only that, but triple threat matches are no disqualifications by default, which means these elitists will be able to do whatever they want, which is something I’m sure Mia Santoro is more than happy to take advantage of!
Stew-O: They’ve begun circling the ring, eyes flitting from one opponent to the other as they try to see who’s going to risk going for the first move… and it appears to be KASAI who takes the initiative, breaking free from the circling and immediately lunging towards the Specialists Champion, Mia Santoro, in an attempt to topple her with a spinning elbow smash… but Mia Santoro was able to duck underneath the blow-
Flannery McCoy: She ducked underneath it just to get hit with a heavy forearm smash from Holly Arrow, managing to be the first to connect in this match as she starts lighting up Mia Santoro with a flurry of those forearm smashes! The Specialists Champion is forced to stagger back as Holly Arrow steps back before firing off a running lariat at the Specialists Champion, BUT MIA SANTORO IS ABLE TO DUCK UNDERNEATH AS SHE RUNS PAST!
Jake Mercer: KASAI fires off a medium kick, but Mia Santoro leapt high enough to clear it, breaking out into a run towards the ropes before rebounding off them! KASAI and Holly Arrow both rush towards Mia Santoro, who is rushing towards them in turn, and they both ready their arms for lariats to take Mia Santoro out– BUT MIA SANTORO LEAPS OFF THE GROUND AND CONNECTS WITH THE CHESTS OF BOTH ELITISTS WITH A DROPKICK!
Stew-O: That dropkick sends both Holly Arrow and KASAI to the canvas, and Mia Santoro speeds over to where Holly Arrow landed as she rolls her up tightly to try to secure a sudden pinfall victory right at the beginning of the match!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Flannery McCoy: But KASAI was able to quickly scramble up after getting knocked down by that dropkick, and she immediately rushed over and leapt into the air, dropping a spinning leg drop on the head of Mia Santoro, causing her head to bounce off the hip of Holly Arrow and break up the pinfall!
Jake Mercer: KASAI doesn’t stop there as she snatches Mia Santoro up off the ground and tucks her head underneath her arm in the form of a front facelock, before kicking the Specialists Champion’s feet away and dropping her with a thunderous spike DDT, planting her head into the canvas with a heavy impact!
Stew-O: And now KASAI is the one who covers the shoulders of the Specialists Champion, aiming to take the victory after knocking her out cold! Will she get it?! The referee is sliding in for the count!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Flannery McCoy: But it’s broken up, this time by Holly Arrow who literally yanked KASAI off the body of Mia Santoro with a rear waist lock, arching back and dropping her with a German suplex… which she’s bridging for another pinfall attempt!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Jake Mercer: But Mia Santoro just yanked on the ankles of Holly Arrow, breaking the bridge! KASAI manages to escape the clutches of Holly Arrow as Mia Santoro, after having pulled her ankles to get her closer, leaps on top of Holly Arrow and begins bashing her with forearm smashes and open palm strikes to the face, trying to wear down the Lodestar and just beat the hell out of her for even TRYING to steal her spotlight!
Stew-O: Holly Arrow manages to escape the wrath of the Obsession as she launches Mia Santoro WAY up into the air with a monkey flip, managing to get the Specialists Champion off of her and end the barrage of strikes! Mia Santoro is sent flying back– INTO A BACKSTABBER BY KASAI, WHO CATCHES HER WITH IT MID-AIR! WHAT GREAT ADAPTIVITY BY THE IMMORTAL SLAYER!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI hooks the leg of Mia Santoro, once again looking for a pin early on in the match, and I think the referee might be getting a sore hand at this point after slapping the canvas this many times!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Jake Mercer: KASAI suddenly scrambled off of Mia Santoro– AND THAT’S WHY! Holly Arrow rushed in and attempted to break up the pin with a basement dropkick aimed at the body of KASAI, but with KASAI moving out of the way, it turned into a sort of senton on the body of the Specialists Champion, who just can’t catch a break in this chaotic match!
Stew-O: Expertly played by KASAI, who already caught on that Holly Arrow was going to be breaking up the pin just like all three of the elitists here have been doing every time someone tried to get an early pinfall to steal the victory and the Specialists Championship away! Holly landed a bit awkwardly on the midsection of Mia Santoro, clearly not expecting KASAI to move in the way that she did… and that gives KASAI just the opening that she needs!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI rushes over to them just as Holly Arrow starts to learn forward to get off of Mia Santoro, and– WOAH! SCISSOR KICK! SCISSOR KICK FROM KASAI TO THE HEAD OF HOLLY ARROW, DRIVING THE LODESTAR’S HEAD RIGHT BACK ONTO THE MIDSECTION OF MIA SANTORO, HURTING THEM BOTH AT THE SAME TIME!
Jake Mercer: The sheer impact of that scissor kick has Holly Arrow totally stunned and dazed, leaving her vulnerable for KASAI to capitalize, and that’s exactly what she looks to do! She grabs a hold of Holly Arrow’s head and drags her off of Mia Santoro’s body, yanking her up to a standing position before having a slight crouch to get Holly Arrow draped over her shoulders in a fireman’s carry hold!
Stew-O: What does the Immortal Slayer have planned here?! She’s marching with Holly on her shoulders with that fireman’s carry hold as she makes her way over to the corner, eyeing it before launching Holly Arrow up in the air and letting her drop abdomen first on top of the top turnbuckle!
Flannery McCoy: Holly Arrow is now draped on top of the corner with her head hanging on one side and her legs hanging over the other! KASAI has a nigh maniacal grin on her face as she steps over onto the apron, on the side where Holly’s head is hanging, and creeps over to grab a hold of the Lodestar’s head! This is definitely a bad position for Holly to be in, and she appears to be too dazed from that scissor kick to be able to effectively defend herself against the machinations of the Immortal Slayer!
Jake Mercer: KASAI sneaks closer to the head of the dazed Lodestar before locking in a front facelock and… oh no. OH, THIS ISN’T GOING TO BE GOOD! KASAI IS–
KASAI: AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!
Stew-O: A DDT! HOLLY ARROW GETS DROPPED FROM THE TOP TURNBUCKLE ONTO THE APRON WITH A DDT! THAT’S THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING RIGHT THERE AND KASAI DROPPED THE LODESTAR HEADFIRST ONTO IT! HOLLY ARROW LANDS ROUGHLY ON THE APRON BEFORE THE IMPACT SENDS HER FALLING OFF AND LANDING OUT AT RINGSIDE! WHAT A TREMENDOUS MANEUVER BY THE IMMORTAL SLAYER! THAT MAY HAVE KILLED HOLLY ARROW RIGHT THERE, BUT KASAI HAS NO REMORSE!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI looks like she’s about to leap from the apron down onto Holly Arrow with some sort of high flying attack! She’s taking aim at the Lodestar and goes to LEAP OFF THE APRON–
Jake Mercer: BUT MIA SANTORO FROM BEHIND! FROM INSIDE THE RING, MIA SANTORO REACHES HER ARMS BETWEEN THE ROPES AND GRABS A HOLD OF KASAI BY THE THROAT! THE OBSESSION LOCKS IN A SLEEPER HOLD TO THE IMMORTAL SLAYER WHO IS OUT ON THE APRON, AND USES THAT CHOKEHOLD TO YANK HER BACK INTO THE RING FROM BETWEEN THE ROPES!
Stew-O: Now KASAI is in trouble as she claws at the hands of Mia Santoro, trying to pry her arms away from her neck so that she can get the oxygen sent back to her brain, but Mia Santoro is doing her absolute best to hang on for dear life! The Immortal Slayer is struggling as Mia Santoro tries to yank KASAI back to fall down to the canvas, but KASAI doesn’t want it to happen! All while the oxygen is cut off from her brain!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI suddenly drops to her knees, and Mia Santoro clearly wasn’t expecting that as she dropped down with KASAI while trying to keep the sleeper hold locked in; that just ended up with Mia Santoro’s jaw bouncing off the shoulder of KASAI in a jawbreaker of desperation! Mia is still hanging on to that sleeper hold, but it looks like her grip has loosened up and KASAI managed to get a bit of air back to her head!
Jake Mercer: KASAI reaches behind her and grabs a hold of Mia Santoro’s head before yanking her forward, freeing herself from the sleeper hold with a snapmare and leaving Mia Santoro seated right in front of her! KASAI looks back and leaps towards the ropes before springboarding herself off the middle rope, launching herself back towards Mia Santoro who tries to scramble up to her feet– SPIN KICK! SPRINGBOARD SPIN KICK BY KASAI CONNECTS WITH THE BACK OF MIA SANTORO’S HEAD, TOPPLING HER IMMEDIATELY TO THE CANVAS!
Stew-O: KASAI rushes over and pushes her over, hooking both of her legs as she tries to get the pinfall victory right here!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Flannery McCoy: OH, and it looks like KASAI tried getting this done a bit too close to the ropes, because Mia Santoro was able to reach back and get a finger on the bottom rope, causing a rope break! The referee calls the pin off, and that seems to have pissed KASAI off as she slaps the canvas in anger before glaring at Mia Santoro, who rolled away over to the nearby corner!
Jake Mercer: Mia Santoro uses the ropes as leverage to help her pull herself back up to a standing position with her back to the corner; meanwhile, KASAI scrambles up to her own feet as quickly as she can before turning her gaze back to the Specialists Champion! Without even a moment of hesitation, KASAI breaks into a wild sprint, aiming to take the head of the Specialists Champion off with a high big boot to the cornered Mia Santoro!
Stew-O: BUT MIA SANTORO MANAGED TO DODGE OUT OF THE WAY! KASAI’S LEG IS STUCK ON THE TOP ROPE AFTER THAT EVASION, AND KASAI IS TRYING TO PULL IT OFF, BUT MIA SANTORO COMES IN FROM BEHIND AND HOISTS KASAI UP BY THE WAIST! IS SHE GOING FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX?!
Flannery McCoy: NO, SHE JUST SWUNG KASAI DOWN IN FRONT OF HER! WHEELBARROW FACEBUSTER FROM MIA SANTORO TO KASAI, WITH THE FACE OF KASAI LANDING RIGHT ON THE BOTTOM TURNBUCKLE! THAT HAS TO HAVE KNOCKED HER OUT! MIA SANTORO IS ABOUT TO RETAIN OFF OF THAT AS SHE PULLS KASAI AWAY FROM THE ROPES!
Jake Mercer: MIA SANTORO HOOKS THE LEGS AND GOES FOR THE PIN, WITH THE REFEREE SLIDING IN FOR THE COUNT!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Stew-O: NO, BUT KASAI MANAGED TO GET THE SHOULDER UP JUST IN TIME! WHAT INCREDIBLE RESILIENCE BY THE IMMORTAL SLAYER AFTER TAKING A BLOW THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A KNOCKOUT TO ANY NORMAL HUMAN BEING!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI is far from normal, though, she is a force of nature trying to get another reign with that Specialists Championship and that’s something that Mia Santoro is going to have to come to terms with! Mia Santoro is looking really upset, yelling and berating the referee for not counting properly… how delusional is she?
Jake Mercer: Well, she has to accept the referee’s call, and she does exactly that as she turns back to KASAI and aims to get more damage done– BUT WHAT’S THIS?! HANDS FROM BENEATH THE BOTTOM ROPE GRAB THE ANKLES OF MIA SANTORO AND TRIP HER, CAUSING HER TO FALL FACE-FIRST ONTO THE BODY OF KASAI!
Stew-O: IT’S HOLLY ARROW! The Lodestar from her position at ringside reaches into the ring and grabs a hold of Mia Santoro, literally dragging her out of the ring from beneath the bottom rope until she falls unceremoniously down to the ringside floor! Mia Santoro clutching her jaw in pain, looking equal parts hurt and angry, as she starts to stagger up to her feet… but the Lodestar seems to have recuperated enough to get back into the game full force!
Flannery McCoy: She sneaks up behind Mia Santoro as she manages to get back to her feet, only to get both of her arms trapped in a crossed position across her body! We’re seeing Holly Arrow’s unique and deep arsenal on display here as she applies a rarely seen straight jacket hold to the trapped Specialists Champion before launching her overhead with a straight jacket suplex! I say that’s just about right, someone as insanely obsessed with herself like Mia Santoro deserves to be put into a straight jacket!
Jake Mercer: That kind of talk is why you’re not the champion and Mia Santoro is!
Flannery McCoy: :wtf: I’m not even a wrestler!
Stew-O: In any case, Mia Santoro is going through it right now with Holly Arrow bringing the heat to her, and we’re seeing the intense and burning desire from Holly Arrow to become the Specialists Champion and break through the glass ceiling that’s been haunting her for her entire career! One look at the determined face of the Lodestar tells you the entire tale as she glowers down at the fallen Mia Santoro with nothing but violence on her mind! This is not a Holly Arrow that you want to mess with, that’s for sure!
Flannery McCoy: She grabs a fistful of Mia Santoro’s hair and uses it to force her back up to a standing position before grabbing the back of her neck and placing one knee against the spine of the Specialists Champion! She turns towards the ring and executes a single knee backstabber, causing Mia Santoro to fall forward and sprawl the upper half of her body against the apron as she arches her back in pain from that devastating maneuver!
Jake Mercer: But she doesn’t even have time to recuperate from the damage she’s sustained because Holly Arrow already got back to her feet and the lunges forward to connect with an elbow smash aimed directly at the back of the Specialists Champion’s head! That sends Mia Santoro into a daze that Holly Arrow is MORE than happy to take advantage of as she tries to pick apart the champion entirely!
Stew-O: Holly Arrow has the head of Mia Santoro grabbed as she starts bouncing it off the edge of the apron! Head smash after head smash, at this rate she might bust Mia Santoro open and have her to start bleeding on the apron with the amount of times that face is being driven onto it!
Flannery McCoy: It looks like she’s not just sticking with one trick up her sleeve, though, as she grabs Mia Santoro with both hands and takes aim at the massive steel steps over to the side! She tightens her grip before launching Mia Santoro towards the steel steps– BUT MIA SANTORO IS ABLE TO REVERSE IT BEFORE SHE GETS LAUNCHED!
Jake Mercer: MIA SENDS HOLLY ARROW FLYING INTO THE STEEL STEPS, AND SHE LANDS HARD ENOUGH AGAINST THEM TO KNOCK THEM OUT OF PLACE! DO YOU KNOW HOW HEAVY THOSE THINGS ARE?! THAT’S THE AMOUNT OF FORCE MIA SANTORO PUT BEHIND THAT THROW!
Stew-O: Mia Santoro falls back against the apron, though, clearly feeling the damage she’s sustained between both KASAI and Holly Arrow launching such violent offense against her! She glares intensely at Holly Arrow, who is clutching at her shoulder as she tries to get up from against the side of the steel steps, and it looks like she has murder on the mind!
Flannery McCoy: Mia Santoro takes aim at Holly Arrow before readying herself and rushing forward! She executes a front roll before springing forward shockingly low to the ground and connecting with a rolling thunder dropkick that sends Holly Arrow right back into the side of those steel steps with gusto! The Obsession is looking exhausted, but she’s pushing herself to her limit to be able to hang on until she retains the Specialists Championship!
Jake Mercer: She staggers over and drags Holly Arrow to a standing position before forcing her back into the ring, before rolling in herself! Mia Santoro gives a stiff boot to the midsection of the Lodestar, looking to force her to double over before Mia Santoro reaches over and grabs her by the waist!
Stew-O: And now the Specialists Champion is able to lift Holly Arrow up onto her shoulders in a powerbomb position! I think we all know what the Obsession is going for her, it’s got to be her signature maneuver, the Forget Me Not! She carries Holly to the middle of the ring and is about to go for the powerbomb–
Flannery McCoy: WOAH, WAIT! THERE’S KASAI! SHE’D ROLLED ONTO THE APRON BUT MANAGED TO GET UP JUST IN TIME TO SPRINGBOARD OFF THE TOP ROPE! MIA SANTORO DOESN’T SEE IT COMING! KASAI LAUNCHES HERSELF AT MIA SANTORO AND HOLLY ARROW TOGETHER, AND– WOW!
Jake Mercer: KASAI CONNECTS WITH THEM, LANDING WITH A FLYING CROSSBODY AGAINST THE BACK OF MIA SANTORO’S HEAD, FORCING MIA SANTORO TO DROP HOLLY ARROW WITH THAT POWERBOMB WHILE SHE LANDS FACE-FIRST ONTO THE CANVAS HERSELF! KASAI JUST TOOK OUT THE ENTIRE PLAYING FIELD WITH ONE MASSIVE AND CHAOTIC MANEUVER!
Stew-O: All three of the elitists in this match are laid out in the center of the ring, with even KASAI landing roughly with that crossbody, having taken some damage herself even though she managed to deal even more damage to both the Specialists Champion and the Lodestar! The three of them roll away from each other in an attempt to create some distance, because NONE of them are in good shape right now after all the damage that’s been dealt!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI is the first one to be able to start staggering up, though, and she manages to make it back to her feet while Holly Arrow and Mia Santoro are still reeling from the sheer impact that they suffered just moments ago! The Immortal Slayer is looking at the playing field and realizes that she’s the one in control here! She sure looks happy about that!
KASAI: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA!
Jake Mercer: The maddening laugh of the Immortal Slayer reverberates throughout the arena as she takes turns stomping both Holly Arrow and Mia Santoro, one after another, just laying waste to the two of them as her heart desires! KASAI may be the most dangerous competitor in this match, because you can never really predict what she’s going to do at any given moment! She’s a force of chaos in that ring, and that’s the kind of factor that can turn a match around in a heartbeat!
Stew-O: Right you are, and it’s apparent right here with both someone as experienced as Holly Arrow and the current reigning champion, Mia Santoro, both at the mercy of the Immortal Slayer who has no mercy to spare tonight! She drags Holly Arrow up to a standing position and shoves her into one corner before going over and grabbing a hold of Mia Santoro, doing the same and sending her into the corner opposite of the Lodestar!
Flannery McCoy: Both of those elitists are still trying to recover, so both of them being placed in those corners is definitely a bad situation for everyone involved… except for KASAI, of course! The Immortal Slayer takes a look at one, takes a look at the other, apparently trying to inflame her senses herself thinking about all the trouble she’s had with both of them over the course of this saga, and THAT’S ALL IT TAKES TO GET HER GOING!
Jake Mercer: KASAI RUSHES OVER TO MIA SANTORO AND CONNECTS WITH A DEVASTATING HIP ATTACK, LEAPING AS HIGH INTO THE AIR AS SHE NEEDED TO IN ORDER TO CONNECT WITH THAT ATTACK STRAIGHT TO THE JAW OF THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION! AND SHE DOESN’T WASTE ANY TIME LOOKING BACK AS SHE RUSHES ACROSS THE RING AND DOES THE SAME TO HOLLY ARROW, LAUNCHING YET ANOTHER HIP ATTACK TO KNOCK HOLLY ARROW DOWN TO A SEATED POSITION, JUST LIKE MIA SANTORO!
Stew-O: BOTH ELITISTS ARE SEATED WITH THEIR BACKS AGAINST THE BOTTOM TURNBUCKLES, AND KASAI ISN’T DONE YET! SHE RUSHES BACK FROM HOLLY ARROW TO WHERE MIA SANTORO IS SEATED AND CONNECTS WITH A BASEMENT DROPKICK STRAIGHT TO THE HEAD OF THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION, BEFORE RUSHING BACK OVER TO HOLLY ARROW AND CONNECTING WITH ANOTHER BASEMENT DROPKICK TO THE LODESTAR AS WELL!
Flannery McCoy: KASAI has taken complete control of this match! I’m not sure if either of the other two wrestlers will be able to do anything to stop her with how much force she’s applying right now! KASAI looks from one to another before seemingly making a decision and making her way towards Holly Arrow; the problems that Holly and KASAI have had with each other are well documented, and it looks like the Immortal Slayer wants to make a statement and win the Specialists Championship off of beating Holly Arrow directly!
Jake Mercer: Honestly, that’s probably an even bigger insult to Mia Santoro, considering how much she likes to be in the limelight; imagine how she would feel if her Specialists Championship reign were to end and she wasn’t even the one getting pinned! In a triple threat match, though, that is definitely a possibility, and it looks like that’s what KASAI wants to do!
Stew-O: The Immortal Slayer drags Holly Arrow out from the corner, with the Lodestar looking totally out of it after all the blows to the head she’s suffered; that’s just what KASAI is looking to capitalize on, though, because she’s laying into Holly Arrow with a bunch of elbow smashes, once again directed to the head of the Lodestar!
Flannery McCoy: She deals enough damage to force Holly Arrow to a kneeling position, with both ladies completely exhausted by the toll this match is taking! Holly Arrow is in a worse position here, though, as she is kneeling and dazed in the center of the ring, and that creates a very menacing grin across the face of the Immortal Slayer!
Jake Mercer: KASAI rushes past Holly Arrow and rebounds off the ropes before sprinting back towards Holly Arrow with added velocity! THIS MIGHT BE IT! KASAI IS LOOKING TO TAKE HOLLY ARROW OUT ENTIRELY, AND SHE FIRES OFF THE SILVER BULLET, KASAI’S SIGNATURE KINSHASA–
Stew-O: BUT HOLLY ARROW SOMEHOW MANAGED TO DUCK UNDERNEATH AT THE VERY LAST POSSIBLE MOMENT, CAUSING KASAI TO MISS! KASAI STUMBLES DOWN TO HER HANDS AND KNEES BEFORE TRYING TO SCRAMBLE BACK TO HER FEET, CLEARLY NOT EXPECTING HOLLY ARROW TO STILL HAVE ENOUGH JUICE IN THE TANK TO BE ABLE TO EVADE HER LIKE THAT!
Flannery McCoy: IF THERE IS ONE THING ABOUT HOLLY ARROW YOU CAN NEVER UNDERESTIMATE, IT’S HER RESILIENCE! SHE’S BEEN THROUGH IT ALL AND SHE’S MORE THAN HAPPY TO GO THROUGH MORE SO LONG AS SHE GETS A SINGLES CHAMPIONSHIP AROUND HER WAIST!
Jake Mercer: KASAI SCRAMBLES BACK TO HER FEET AS SHE TURNS AROUND AND LOOKS TO RUSH BACK AT THE LODESTAR, AND SHE DOES! BUT HOLLY ARROW SUDDENLY CROUCHES DOWN AND PUSHES UP, POPPING KASAI UP INTO THE AIR BEFORE– VICTORIA! VICTORIA! THAT POP UP KNEE STRIKE CONNECTS AGAINST THE IMMORTAL SLAYER! SHADES OF MYLES!
Stew-O: KASAI WENT FROM BEING IN COMPLETE CONTROL TO LOOKING DAZED AS CAN BE AFTER THAT SHOCKING REVERSAL, AND NOW HOLLY ARROW LOOKS DOWN AT THE SEVERELY DAMAGED IMMORTAL SLAYER WITH NARROWED EYES! THIS IS EVERYTHING HOLLY ARROW HAS BEEN WAITING FOR! THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPIONSHIP IS WITHIN HER GRASP!
Flannery McCoy: SHE TUCKS THE HEAD OF THE IMMORTAL SLAYER UNDERNEATH HER ARM AND HOISTS HER UP WITH A VERTICAL SUPLEX LIFT! SHE’S GOING FOR IT! SHE’S GOING FOR HER FINISHING MANEUVER, THE PSIONIC CROSSBOW, THAT DREADED BLOODY SUNDAY MANEUVER!
Jake Mercer: BUT KASAI MANAGED TO SQUIRM HER WAY OUT OF THE VERTICAL LIFT AND LANDS ON HER FEET RIGHT BEHIND THE LODESTAR! HOLLY ARROW QUICKLY TURNS AROUND AND–
Stew-O: URAI’S CURSE! URAI’S CURSE! URAI’S CURSE! THAT SKULL KICK JUST SHATTERED HOLLY ARROW’S MOMENTUM, CAUSING THE LODESTAR TO DROP TO THE CANVAS LIKE A SACK OF POTATOES! KASAI DID IT!
Flannery McCoy: THE IMMORTAL SLAYER JUST MANAGED TO SUCCESSFULLY LAND HER FINISHING MANEUVER ON THE LODESTAR, AND NOW SHE DROPS DOWN TO HER KNEES AND HOOKS THE LEGS OF HOLLY ARROW! WE’RE ABOUT TO SEE KASAI BECOME A TWO TIME SPECIALISTS CHAMPION RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Jake Mercer: KILLING MOON! KILLING MOON! MIA SANTORO JUST BROKE THAT PINFALL ATTEMPT UP WITH HER OWN SIGNATURE ROLLING WHEEL KICK MANEUVER, CONNECTING DIRECTLY WITH THE HEAD OF KASAI AND DRIVING IT INTO THE HEAD OF HOLLY ARROW! MIA SANTORO, THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION, IS STILL IN THIS AND EXPERTLY USED HER TWO OPPONENTS AGAINST EACH OTHER!
Stew-O: MIA SANTORO CLIMBS TO THE TOP ROPE AS KASAI TRIES TO FIGURE OUT WHAT JUST HAPPENED! KASAI SLUMPS ONTO MIA SANTORO, WITH THAT BLOW SEEMINGLY KNOCKING HER SILLY, AND TURNING INTO ANOTHER PINFALL ATTEMPT!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Flannery McCoy: CHASE THE FEELING! MIA SANTORO JUST BROKE UP THE PINFALL ATTEMPT WITH HER OWN FINISHING MANEUVER, THE DIVING LEG DROP OFF THE TOP ROPE! SHE JUST USED HER OWN BODY AS A WEAPON AGAINST BOTH KASAI AND HOLLY ARROW, LANDING ON TOP OF BOTH OF THEM!
Jake Mercer: KASAI ROLLS OFF OF HOLLY ARROW, LOOKING LIKE SHE’S OUT COLD, AND HOLLY ARROW IS LOOKING EVEN WORSE FOR WEAR! MIA SANTORO KICKS KASAI OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE HOOKING THE LEGS OF THE LODESTAR!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
(‘Cult Leader’ by KiNG MALA began playing once again to even more deafening boos as Mia Santoro rolls off of Holly Arrow, looking completely exhausted by that match but with a smirk on her face as she hears her theme song playing. The referee helps her to her feet and hands her the Specialists Championship, which she promptly snatches from his hands before hoisting it up into the air of her own accord.)
Stephie Love: HERE IS YOUR WINNER… AND STILL! YOUR EAW SPECIALISTS CHAMPION! THE OBSESSION… MIA! SAAAAAAANTOOOOOOOOOOOOROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Stew-O: This was a chaotic bout for the ages, befitting the nature of the three elitists competing in it! All three of these women wanted that Specialists Championship more than anything in the world tonight, but at the end of the day, only one of them would have been able to walk out of here with the gold…
Flannery McCoy: And for tonight, that woman was the reigning champion herself, Mia Santoro! Whatever you may have against her and her attitude, she managed to play this match perfectly, taking advantage of KASAI’s blistering offense against Holly Arrow and striking at just the right moment to be able to steal the victory!
Jake Mercer: There was no stealing involved tonight, Mia Santoro proved that she IS the Obsession for a reason, but no matter how obsessed everyone is with taking her down, she will continue to hold the Specialists Championship all for herself! Congratulations to La Desperada!
(The video feed lingers as Mia Santoro continues to obnoxiously celebrate her championship reign, while Holly Arrow and KASAI both regain consciousness and realize what happened, looking equal parts frustrated and disappointed. The video feed then slowly fades to black as Mia Santoro hoists the title up with a smirk on her face.)

(The camera returns to Bella Braxton, who is seen with a microphone in her hand.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A TORNADO TAG TEAM MATCH SCHEDULED FOR ONE-FALL!
Crowd: ONE-FALL!
(‘Let Me Hear’ by Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas begins to play as the crowd boos. Saori Aizen slowly, methodically makes her way onto the stage. She disregards the audience, keeping her focus singular tonight. She doesn’t wait on the stage for her tag team partner, instead choosing to walk directly down the ramp and towards the ring, ready for the match ahead.)
Bella Braxton: INTRODUCING FIRST…FROM TOKYO, JAPAN…WEIGHING IN AT 130 POUNDS…SHE IS ‘NO SHINIGAMI’…SAAAAOOOORRIIII AAIIIIZZEEEN!
Thadd Blazevich: Bro, she looks like she’s on the warpath tonight! Saori Aizen is here tonight to win. There are doubts about her and her partner being able to work together! But after the last Voltage, it seems like they’re on the same page! Hopefully it stays that way!
(‘God Shattering Star’ by Takashi Baba begins to play as the crowd switches to cheers. ARIA makes her way out onto the stage, keeping a focused look on her face. ARIA looks determined despite having to work alongside Saori Aizen tonight, and begins making her way down the ramp, giving a brief smile to the fans in attendance before maintaining her focus.)
Bella Braxton: AND HER PARTNER…RESIDING IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA…WEIGHING IN AT 130 POUNDS…SHE IS ARRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAA!
Rich Russillo: Again, tensions are tight between these two! But ARIA is determined to make the most of this opportunity! She needs this victory to get back to where she wants to be! Can she work together with Aizen and put herself back on the path!
(‘‘My Own Summer’ by Deftones cuts in now. Selina Reyes just stares at her opponents as she walks out. There is a hungry, sadistic smirk on her face as she looks at the two inside of the ring. She just shakes her head, seemingly confident as she ignores the negative reception coming from the fans in attendance. Unlike Saori, Selina waits on the ramp for her tag team partner.)
Bella Braxton: AND THEIR OPPONENT.S…FIRST…RESIDING IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS…WEIGHING IN AT 117 POUNDS…SHE IS “THE ORYX QUEEN”…SEEELINNNAA REYEEESSS!
Persephone: Oh yeah, if anyone has anything to prove tonight it’s this bitch.
Rich Russillo: You’re not wrong. Reyes has come into this season determined to make it hers! This match is essential to getting her back on track! She is going to be ruthless tonight, especially after that confrontation with Daniella Atlas last week!
(The tron lights up as the arena goes pitch black. Chants, symbols and cimbaloms play before “Blood, Milk & Sky” by White Zombie cuts in. A lone spotlight on the stage reveals Minerva, kneeling and licking her lips. She grins before putting the rose in her mouth, meeting Selina Reyes on the stage. After this, the two Elitists begin making their way down the ramp, focused ahead of this tornado tag team match.)
Bella Braxton: AND HER PARTNER…RESIDING IN CASSADAGA, FLORIDA…WEIGHING IN AT 122 POUNDS…SHE IS THE BLACK ROSE…MIIIIIIIINNNNEERRRVVVVVAAA!
Thadd Blazevich: Bro, you are looking at the centerpiece of this match in a way! Both ARIA and Aizen want to have a victory over the hall of famer! Minerva and Reyes have spent weeks going back and forth with these two! That sheer ruthlessness is going to give her an edge tonight for sure dude.
Rich Russillo: Let’s not forget, Minerva has seemingly taken a liking to Selina Reyes, which is part of what caused this as Saori wanted another match against Reyes. The dynamics between these two teams are very different, but we’ll see which team walks out with the victory.
(Minerva enters the ring and sits up on the turnbuckle, twirling the rose. Selina Reyes heads over to her and two begin discussing strategy. Saori Aizen and ARIA look tense but still seem to be devising their own plan here. The referee calls for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Rich Russillo: And that’s the bell folks! We are in for some tornado tag team action here! And look at these two teams…both staring each other down! They are just waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike! Minerva and Reyes nod to each other BUT AIZEN AND ARIA COME IN HOT WITH SOME MASSIVE FOREARMS! They just lay into their opponents, stunning them! They then run to the ropes!
Thadd Blazevich: OFF THE REBOUND MINERVA TAKES DOWN ARIA WITH A CLOTHESLINE! Reyes drills Aizen with a European uppercut! She then gets her with another, sending her into the corner! And Minerva follows that up, meeting Aizen into the corner with another clothesline! She sends her with an irish whip…AND SENDS HER RIGHT INTO REYES FOR A DROPKICK! Dude, it really seems like Minerva and Reyes are operating well together!
Persephone: We’ll see how long that lasts. ARIA comes in from behind on Reyes, trying to get her with a german suplex! But Reyes drives her back into the corner, holding her there for Minerva! She runs at her…BUT ARIA SHOVES REYES FORWARD! She collides with Minerva!
Rich Russillo: SHE THEN COMES IN FROM BEHIND AND TAKES DOWN HER REYES WITH A BACKSTABBER! Selina is down, and ARIA heads towards Minerva and gets her in position for a suplex! Minerva though lifts her up instead, getting her up for the scoop slam!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT BRO! SAORI AIZEN GRABS ARIA’S LEG FROM BEHIND AND PULLS HER OFF OF MINERVA’S SHOULDERS! Minerva goes to throw a punch at Aizen but gets rocked by a hook kick! Minerva is stunned for a moment, giving Aizen the opportunity to follow up! SHE TAKES DOWN MINERVA WITH THE EXPLODER SUPLEX! It looks like they’re looking together pretty well now too dudes. Aizen looks to follow that up, going for that double foot stomp!
Persephone: But Minerva rolls out of the way! She gets back up to her feet but ARIA stays on her, grabbing her for the guillotine choke! Look at that, the classic numbers game.
Rich Russillo: But back is Selina Reyes! She delivers a nasty dropkick right to the back of Saori Aizen that sends her right into the corner! She then turns her attention towards the choke! SHE TEARS ARIA AWAY NOW AND PLACES HER IN THE CROSSFACE! Brutal! Look at how hard she’s pulling back on her neck, almost like she wants to tear her head off! Knowing Reyes, that could definitely be the case! Meanwhile, Minerva heads back towards the corner, she starts pummeling Aizen! She steps up onto the ropes! ONE! TWO! THREE! Big right hands raining down on Aizen here!
Thadd Blazevich: She then changes things up here. She pulls Aizen out of the corner and gets her up…HERE COMES A FISHERMAN SUPLEX BRO! BUT NO! AIZEN IS ABLE TO SHOVE HER AWAY! Minerva then comes back at her with a clothesline but Aizen ducks under it, AND SAORI DELIVERS A DOUBLE STOMP RIGHT ON THE BACK OF REYES’ HEAD! Looks like she just freed up her partner here dude!
Persephone: Reyes rolls out of the ring but in the meantime, Minerva stays in pursuit of Aizen! Aizen tries to get her with the backfist but Minerva ducks under it! FROM BEHIND SHE LAUNCHES AIZEN WITH THE RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX! ARIA tries to catch Minerva off guard after this- BUT MINERVA AVOIDS ARIA’S KICK BEFORE SENDING HER INTO THE ROPES- AND ARIA IS CAUGHT WITH A SPINEBUSTER OFF THE REBOUND! Minerva hooks the leg for the cover, showing just what a hall of famer is capable of!
ONE!
TWO-
Rich Russillo: It looks like that one wasn’t quite able to get the job done! But Minerva keeps up the pressure nonetheless, getting her opponent in a headlock! She keeps it locked in tight but her opponent is fighting back! ARIA manages to get back on her feet! She then slips out of the hold and gets directly behind her opponent! SHE TRIES FOR THE SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX! BUT MINERVA SENDS HER FORWARD WITH A SNAPMARE INSTEAD! AND SHE FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH A DROPKICK!
Thadd Blazevich: Bro, Minerva is definitely taking point here in this match! Selina Reyes is now sliding back inside the ring! Minerva picks up ARIA and tells Reyes to hold her still! Minerva then takes a step back…BEFORE HITTING THE DEVIL’S TOUCH!
Persephone: NOPE! ARIA is able to avoid it! It almost hits Reyes instead but she’s able to sidestep it barely! ARIA gets back on her feet…AND SHE BLASTS MINERVA WITH THE SHOTGUN DROPKICK! It sends her right into Reyes, knocking them both down! ARIA better not fumble this opening!
Rich Russillo: She brings Reyes back to a vertical base! She tries to get her up for a Blue Thunder Bomb! BUT REYES ROLLS OVER HER HEAD AND LANDS ON HER FEET! SHE THEN PICKS ARIA UP AND DRIVES HER INTO THE MAT WITH A SAITO SUPLEX! She’s about to cover but here comes Saori Aizen! SHE GRABS REYES FROM BEHIND! SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX! AND SHE BRIDGES INTO THE COVER!
ONE!
TW-
Thadd Blazevich: That was a slick save from Aizen there but this is far from over! Saori Aizen heads over to her partner and gets her back on her feet! She’s thinking like a partner here! The two of them look towards Minerva now! Aizen lifts her up, holding her in position for a wheelbarrow! ARIA THEN LOOKS FOR A SUPERKICK…BUT MINERVA SENDS AIZEN FORWARD INSTEAD!
Persephone: ARIA superkicks her own partner! She looks over in shock…and Minerva immediately levels her with a running STO! The back of ARIA’s head bounces off the mat, and getting dropped like that probably won’t help how stupid she already is. She rolls out of the ring, leaving Aizen in there alone!
Rich Russillo: Minerva now sets her sights on the lone half of the opposition! She takes aim as she gets onto her knees…AND THEN LETS LOOSE A SCISSORS KICK! Aizen is able to duck her head away at the last second! SHE THEN GETS MINERVA WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK! Aizen nearly takes her entire skull off with that one! And now Reyes is back up once more! SHE GETS AIZEN WITH A MASSIVE CHOP TO THE CHEST! SHE FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH ANOTHER! Aizen stumbles back from the sheer impact!
Thadd Blazevich: Reyes then takes hold of her and sends her across the ring with an Irish whip! Off the rebound she looks for a running forearm! BRO! AIZEN CATCHES THE ARM! SHE THEN SMASHES HER SKULL INTO REYES’ WITH A HEADBUTT! She knocks her right down to the mat and begins bludgeoning her opponent relentlessly! She is firing off here! SHE GOES TO PULL HER IN FOR ONE MORE…
Persephone: BUT A PALM STRIKE FROM REYES INTERCEPTS IT! OOF! Saori Aizen falls off to the side and Reyes scrambles back to her feet! As her opponent begins to stir, Reyes runs to the ropes! SHE LEAPS OFF THE TOP WITH THE SPRINGBOARD CROSSBODY! BUT AIZEN RUSHES FORWARD AND GETS HER WITH A DROPKICK INSTEAD! RIGHT IN THE CENTER MASS! She scrambles on top of her opponent for the cover.
ONE!
TW-
Rich Russillo: But it was not enough! That shoulder is up before the two count! Aizen immediately latches onto that arm, twisting it into a Fujiwara Armbar! That was an impressive transition there! You can tell Reyes is in plenty of pain, especially as her arm could be pulled out of its socket! She grabs onto the bottom rope…AND SHE PULLS HERSELF OUT OF THE RING! A narrow escape but a much needed one! But Saori Aizen isn’t going to let her off that easy! SHE RUNS TOWARDS THE ROPES FOR THE SUICIDE DIVE!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT MINERVA DELIVERS A LEG SWEEP AS SHE’S BUILDING UP SPEED! She then crawls on top of her and starts unleashing punches! Bro, Minerva is straight up beating the stuffing out of Aizen here! PUNCH AFTER PUNCH AFTER PUNCH TO SAORI!!
Rich Russillo: ARIA COMES IN FROM BEHIND AND ATTEMPTS TO GET MINERVA IN THE DRAGON SLEEPER, BUT MINERVA IS ABLE TO GRAB ARIA BY HER HAIR BEFORE IT COULD BE FULLY APPLIED, DRAGGING HER DOWN WITH A BIT OF A SNAPMARE! Minerva then gets back to her feet…SHE LIFTS UP ARIA! SAMBO SUPLEX RIGHT ON TOP OF AIZEN! MINERVA IS NOT EASY TO TAKE DOWN, THAT’S FOR SURE!
Persephone: Yikes, everyone is a weapon tonight. Selina Reyes slides back inside the ring and then makes her way up onto the top rope! Minerva drags ARIA into the place…AND REYES GOES FOR THE TOP ROPE SENTON!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT ALL SHE GETS IS A PAIR OF KNEES TO THE SPINE!
Rich Russillo: Yikes, ARIA got the knees up and that had to hurt for Selina. ARIA pulls herself up to her feet using the ropes! BUT SHE’S KNOCKED RIGHT OVER THE TOP WITH A CLOTHESLINE FROM MINERVA! As ARIA goes to get back inside the ring, Minerva builds up some speed! SHE THEN GETS HER WITH THE BASEBALL SLIDE DROPKICK! It launches ARIA back and right into the barricade! It looks Minerva is now coming to the outside herself! She grabs the face of ARIA…AND BOUNCES IT RIGHT OFF THE BARRICADE!
Thadd Blazevich: Looks like we’re getting a bit of a brawl on the outside now! Selina Reyes is now coming to the outside as well. Minerva sends ARIA right over to her with an irish whip! AND SHE’S SENT SKY HIGH WITH A BACK BODY DROP! A nasty landing here on the ringside floor dudes! But they scrape her right back up, clearly looking to do more damage! Reyes holds her head against that steel post! Minerva takes a few steps back…getting ready to kick her skull in!
Persephone: BUT NO! AIZEN DIVES OUT OF THE RING WITH A WRECKING BALL DROPKICK! SHE ABSOLUTELY OBLITERATES MINERVA THERE! Selina Reyes stares her down and looks to make her move…BUT ARIA COMES FROM BEHIND AND THROWS HER BACK INSIDE THE RING! ARIA and Aizen make their way back inside the ring!
Rich Russillo: As she scrambles back to her feet, Aizen unleashes a brutal kick to the gut of Reyes! Following that up, ARIA is grabbing her head running towards the ropes! SHE LOOKS FOR A TORNADO DDT! BUT REYES IS ABLE TO LIFT HER UP! SHE SENDS ARIA OVER THE APRON BUT ARIA CATCHES HERSELF! Aizen on the other hand, tries to grab Selina from behind…BUT SHE GRABS HER AND THROWS HER RIGHT INTO ARIA! Aizen’s shoulder collides with her, knocking her back to the outside! Now Aizen is draped against the ropes!
Thadd Blazevich: Selina Reyes builds up a little bit of speed before bringing her legs around for that tiger feint kick! Both of her legs smash right into Aizen, sending her rolling across the ring! As Aizen struggles to get back up onto her feet…REYES LEAPS UP ONTO THE ROPES! SHE THEN TAKES HER DOWN WITH A PERFECT SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK BROS! IT GETS HER OPPONENT RIGHT IN THE FACE! She then kips right back onto her feet!
Persephone: Damn, she definitely is feeling it now. It’s about time. Reyes brings Aizen over to the corner and begins stomping down on her! She goes absolutely rabid, trying to keep her down. Reyes then moves to the other side of the ring and I think we all know what is coming next! SHE RUSHES FORWARD AND GOES FOR THAT KNOCKOUT SMASH!
Rich Russillo: BUT ARIA PULLS AIZEN OUT OF THE RING BEFORE IMPACT! She then slips back inside herself and drops Reyes with a superkick! Things might turn back her way here! She rushes towards the ropes and does her handspring! HERE COMES THE PHOENIX INJECTION!
Thadd Blazevich: NO BRO! MINERVA COMES BACK INSIDE THE RING AND INTERCEPTS WITH THE SATAN’S KISS! THAT HEADBUTT MIGHT HAVE JUST KNOCKED ARIA CLEAN OUT HERE! SHE HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!
ONE!
TWO!
THR-
Persephone: Looks like it’s Aizen to the rescue now. She dives on top of the cover to break it up! Kinda stupid now that she’s looking like the target.
Rich Russillo: Minerva gets back up and sends an elbow into Saori’s midsection, AND NOW MINERVA RAMS SAORI BACK FIRST INTO TURNBUCKLES, BEFORE KNEEING AWAY AT HER MIDSECTION! MINERVA SHOWING SOME SERIOUS AGGRESSION AS SHE’S KNOWN FOR, MEANWHILE LOOK AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RING! Reyes turns her attention back towards ARIA now, dragging her up to her feet!
Thadd Blazevich: OH ARIA GETS HER WITH A GNARLY STEP-UP ENZIGURI! She stuns Reyes for a moment here! ARIA LIFTS REYES UP FOR THE FALCON ARROW! BUT NO! REYES SLIPS OFF AND GETS BEHIND HER! SHE RUNS TO THE ROPES…BUT OFF THE REBOUND SHE’S CAUGHT WITH A POP-UP POWERBOMB! WAIT…NO! REYES TURNS IT INTO A MONKEY FLIP INSTEAD!
Persephone: What the hell…ARIA LANDS ON HER FEET! Reyes stands back up, ready to follow through…BUT GETS CAUGHT UP WITH THE PHOENIX CUTTER! Aria actually connects with it! She hooks the leg and goes for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THR-
Rich Russillo: BUT NO! MINERVA GRABS ARIA BY THE HAIR AND DRAGS HER UP OFF OF REYES! She was not about to let that happen! SHE THEN GETS HER WITH AN ELBOW! AND ANOTHER! She brings her down to the mat, keeping her trapped as she unleashes a barrage of them! It isn’t too long before ARIA looks like she doesn’t know where she is! And now Minerva rolls her over on her head…AND LOOKS LIKE SHE’S GOING TO APPLY THAT OWL OF MINERVA!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT NO! HERE COMES SAORI AIZEN RUSHING BACK OVER! SHE GRABS MINERVA OFF OF ARIA AND THEN TAKES HER DOWN WITH SHORT-ARM LARIAT! Minerva scrambles back to her feet and Aizen keeps coming at her! SHE GETS HER WITH A RUNNING HURRICARANA! IT SENDS HER ROLLING RIGHT INTO THE CORNER! And now bro, Aizen rushes there to meet her!
Persephone: BUT MINERVA GETS THE BOOT UP! SAORI STUMBLES BACK, AND REYES GRABS HER FROM BEHIND! SHE DROPS HER DOWN WITH A SAITO SUPLEX! And now she goes right after ARIA, straight-up dead-lifting her off the mat! SHE GETS HER WITH THE SAITO SUPLEX NOW! Damn, Selina is actually on fire right now. When is she going to crash and burn?
Rich Russillo: Not quite yet it seems! She picks up ARIA once again and holds her in position for a German suplex! MINERVA RUSHES IN FOR A CLOTHESLINE COMBINATION! Some effective teamwork there! Their teamwork tonight has been impeccable! They turn back on Aizen now, looking to beat her down as well! Reyes picks her up in the same position, getting her up for a German suplex! BUT THE OPPONENT DRIVES AN ELBOW BACK RIGHT INTO HER FACE! Aizen then rushes forward….LEAPING DDT ON MINERVA!
Thadd Blazevich: And now bro, Reyes tries to take her down from behind…but Aizen ducks under it! She catches the leg of Reyes instead…AND SHE GETS SELINA WITH THE KNEEBAR! That was an impressive counter there dude. Aizen is fighting back hard tonight! BUT REYES ISN’T ABOUT TO GIVE UP! SHE PULLS HERSELF TO THE OUTSIDE ONCE AGAIN!
Persephone: BUT NO! ARIA NEARLY TAKES HER HEAD OFF WITH A SUPERKICK! SHE THEN SHOVES REYES BACK INSIDE THE RING, KEEPING HER TRAPPED IN THE SUBMISSION! Oh shit, it looks like the ref is checking on Reyes…did she actually pass out?
Rich Russillo: NO, OF COURSE NOT! SHE IS DAZED FROM THE SUPERKICK, BUT SHE’S NOT ABOUT TO GIVE THIS MATCH UP! SHE STANDS BACK UP DESPITE HAVING AIZEN ON HER LEG! SHE TEARS HER LEG AWAY! The damage has been done clearly as she limps towards the corner! Aizen gets back up and tries to meet her there…BUT REYES IS ABLE TO COUNTER WITH A MONKEY FLIP! SHE SENDS AIZEN RIGHT INTO THE TURNBUCKLES!
Thadd Blazevich: And now ARIA comes back inside the ring! She tries to take her down with a belly-to-belly suplex but Reyes elbows her in the side of the head instead! She sends ARIA into the ropes with an irish whip! Off the rebound, ARIA ducks under right under a clothesline! SHE DOES THE HANDSPRING! ONCE AGAIN SHE’S GOING FOR THAT PHOENIX INJECTION!
Rich Russillo: BUT REYES MANAGES TO CATCH HER! SHE ROCKS HER IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH A FOREARM! She then knocks ARIA into the corner with a European uppercut! She has her exactly where she wants her now! She heads to the opposite corner…and gets in position! KNOCKOUT SMASH! SHE GETS IT! She drags her opponent towards the center of the ring and covers!
ONE!
TWO!
THR-
Persephone: And ARIA kicks out of that. Reyes couldn’t get the job done and she doesn’t seem super thrilled about that. She drags her back up to her feet…AND IT’S ABOUT TIME, SHE’S LOOKING FOR THE ORYX AWAKENING!
Thadd Blazevich: NO BRO! SAORI AIZEN IS ON THE TOP ROPE! SHE DIVES OFF AND GETS HER WITH THE DIVING MISSILE DROPKICK! Looks like she just made the save there for ARIA! She goes to cover her opponent…BUT MINERVA DRAGS HER PARTNER OUT OF THE RING! Look at that…she has no intention of letting her partner take the fall here!
Rich Russillo: Meanwhile in the ring, it looks like Aizen is helping ARIA back to her feet. Both of these teams are staring each other down now…what is going to happen next?
Persephone: Welp, Minerva and Reyes slide back inside the ring! ARIA and Aizen get taken down here! Minerva and Selina Reyes are brawling with their opponents…seems like things might just get out of control. BUT ARIA AND SAORI AIZEN ROLL THEM OVER! THEY’RE NOW THE ONES BEATING UP THEIR OPPONENTS! HIT HARDER!
Thadd Blazevich: ARIA and Aizen bring them both up to their feet now! They both get them in position for stereo German suplexes! BUT THEY COUNTER! Both Minerva and Reyes are able to get behind their opponents! THEY LOOK FOR THEIR OWN GERMAN SUPLEXES! BUT THEY’RE ABLE TO SHAKE THEIR OPPONENTS OFF OF THEM! Selina Reyes and Minerva turn around…AND THEY’RE BOTH TAKEN DOWN BY DROPKICKS!
Rich Russillo: Saori Aizen turns her attention towards Minerva in the ring now! She lets her get back to her feet! SHE GETS HER WITH THOSE FIVE KICKS TO THE CHEST AND LEGS! FIVE BULLETS RIDDLE THE BODY OF MINERVA HERE! She’s knocked down to her knees and she is precisely where her opponent wants her! HERE COMES THAT SIXTH AND FINAL HOLY BULLET!
Persephone: But Minerva ducks underneath it! SHE GETS BACK UP ONTO HER FEET! SHE GETS HER UP IN THE HEADLOCK! TWILIGHT TIME!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT NO DUDE! AIZEN IS ABLE TO BREAK FREE! She turns around to face Minerva…AND MINERVA SPRAYS HER WITH THE BLACK MIST! OH MY GOD! THE DARK! And it might be that her opponent is blinded right now!
Rich Russillo: She drags the blinded Aizen back up to her feet! There is a sadistic smile on the face of Minerva now! She is enjoying her handiwork! She grabs the face of Aizen and then brings her fist back for a punch! Saori is forced to take that one, but Minerva doesn’t stop there! She holds onto Aizen before looking for another-
Persephone: BUT AIZEN CATCHES MINERVA OFF GUARD WITH THUNDERCLAP NOVA!
Thadd Blazevich: THAT’S RIGHT DUDE! SAORI CAN STILL BARELY SEE, BUT MINERVA HOLDING ONTO HER MUST’VE LET HER KNOW EXACTLY WHERE SHE IS! AIZEN JUST NEARLY CAVED HER FACE IN WITH THAT HIGH-IMPACT ELBOW SMASH! She crawls right on top of her opponent, hooking the leg for the cover! IS THIS IT?
ONE!
TWO!
T-
Rich Russillo: NO! MINERVA IS ABLE TO KICK OUT! Aizen can’t believe it! You know what else she can’t do right now? SEE! That could be a problem, as Reyes is now heading back inside the ring!
Thadd Blazevich: Selina lines up her target, standing right behind her! SHE THEN LEAPS UP AND SPIKES AIZEN’S HEAD INTO THE MAT WITH THE POISONRANA!
Persephone: She goes to cover but ARIA decides to play party pooper. She grabs Reyes and throws her to the outside! ARIA THEN HITS A STANDING MOONSAULT ON MINERVA! Perfect landing there and now she rolls her onto her stomach…is she…actually lifting her up right now?
Thadd Blazevich: Indeed she is dude! It looks like she’s going for that gutwrench suplex! AN AMAZING FEAT OF STRENGTH!
Rich Russillo: BUT MINERVA IS ABLE TO LAND ON HER FEET! SHE GRABS ARIA AND DRIVES HER HEAD INTO THE MAT WITH PARADISE LOST! ALL AN ELITIST LIKE MINERVA NEEDED WAS THAT ONE OPENING, AND SHE FOUND IT! THE COVER!
ONE!
TWO!
THRE-
Rich Russillo: WAIT A SECOND! SAORI AIZEN RUSHES IN AND GRABS MINERVA! SHE PLACES HER IN A PERUVIAN NECKTIE! Look at that way she’s driving her knee right into Minerva’s skull, applying tons of pressure here!
Thadd Blazevich: It doesn’t take that long for Reyes to play spoiler here! She grabs Aizen with her thighs! SHE STARTS SMASHING HER FACE OFF THE MAT! Dude, she is dribbling it like a basketball right now! ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! She could probably keep this up all night!
Persephone: I don’t think most of these pervs would mind.
Rich Russillo: But now Reyes rolls her over onto her chest! She transitions into a submission hold of her own! She’s got her in a bulldog choke! This is brutal right here…she’s slowly squeezing the life out of her opponent! Saori Aizen might just pass out!
Thadd Blazevich: ARIA GETS REYES WITH A SOCCER KICK RIGHT TO THE LOWER BACK! She saves her partner there and then brings her partner up onto her feet! ARIA THEN LEVELS REYES WITH A SPINNING HEEL KICK! And now she heads out onto the apron! SHE LEAPS UP ONTO THE TOP ROPE! SHE GOES FOR THE SPRINGBOARD 450 SPLASH!
Persephone: BUT NO! REYES LIFTS THE KNEES UP! ARIA LANDS RIGHT ON TOP OF THEM! She bounces off of Reyes in pain! I can’t believe she didn’t see that coming.
Rich Russillo: Reyes slowly climbs back onto her feet! She sees Aizen and picks her up and throws her into the corner! She lifts her up onto the top rope! She climbs up onto that top rope and starts throwing punches! She’s softening her opponent up here…AND NOW HERE COMES THE PUNJABI FLY!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT AIZEN SHOVES HER OFF THE TOP ROPE! It looks like she was barely able to save herself there! She readjusts into position now! AND HERE IT COMES BRO! HORIZON OF THE CAPTIVATING SKANDA!
Persephone: BUT MINERVA IS UP! SHE PUSHES HER RIGHT OFF THE TOP ROPE AND TO THE OUTSIDE! Damn, she landed in an absolutely nasty position there! It looks Aizen might be out of it for the time being. RIP.
Rich Russillo: This does not bode well for ARIA in the slightest! Minerva drags her off the mat and sends her across the ring with a release German suplex! She drags her back up to her feet…AND THROWS HER WITH ANOTHER! Minerva gets into that Abdominal stretch position! A CLOCKWORK ORANGE!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT NO! ARIA IS ABLE TO COUNTER WITH THE ARMDRAG! Minerva slowly makes her way back up to her feet bro…ONLY TO GET CAUGHT WITH THAT FANTASY LIVES ON! HOLY…BRO!
Persephone: Oh! This one is finally over! Thank god cause we have a show to get through. ARIA hooks the leg for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Rich Russillo: MINERVA KICKS OUT! REYES WAS INCHES WAY FROM THE SAVE! Minerva didn’t wait, getting that shoulder up just before the three! It was so close to over there folks! Selina grabs ARIA and drags her to a vertical base! She grabs her by the hair and pulls her up for a European uppercut! She goes over and over again, rapidly driving ARIA into the corner!
Thadd Blazevich: SHE ROCKS HER WITH THAT JUMPING KNEE! It catches ARIA right underneath the chin there! And now she looks to follow that up with the bulldog bro! BUT ARIA SHOVES REYES AWAY! AIZEN POPS UP BEHIND REYES AND TAKES HER DOWN WITH A SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX! And now dudes, Aizen and ARIA look to take care of Minerva here!
Persephone: They bring her back to her feet…oh she’s about to get destroyed. ARIA HOLDS MINERVA IN PLACE, PINNING BOTH ARMS BEHIND HER! She keeps her steady as Aizen builds up some speed…RAIMEI HAKKE! THE BICYCLE KNEE!
Rich Russillo: BUT MINERVA MOVES OUT OF THE WAY AND IT MAKES FULL CONTACT WITH ARIA INSTEAD! Saori Aizen looks shocked for a moment but puts her focus back on Minerva- ONLY FOR MINERVA TO CATCH HER WITH THE DEVIL’S TOUCH!!
Persephone: NO! SAORI GOT OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE LIFTING MINERVA UP, POSSIBLY LOOKING FOR THAT TOMBSTONE!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT MINERVA HAS IT SCOUTED! SHE IMMEDIATELY SLIPS BEHIND SAORI AS SHE DROPS AN ELBOW ONTO THE TOP OF HER HEAD! SAORI WAS DAZED BY THAT AND TURNS AROUND- RIGHT INTO THE DEVIL’S TOUCH! IT CONNECTS THIS TIME!!!! SHE GETS AIZEN WITH THAT KICK AND IT NEARLY TOOK HER HEAD OFF THERE!
Rich Russillo: Selina Reyes is up on her feet again and Minerva is giving out the order! Reyes grabs Saori Aizen and throws her to the outside! It looks like she’s out of this one for the time being! They are going to focus their efforts on ARIA instead! Reyes lifts her up, getting her in position for the Oryx Awakening! THIS. IS. OVER.
Persephone: Or not.
Thadd Blazevich: ARIA IS STILL FIGHTING ON BROS! SHE SLIPS OUT AND GOES RIGHT BETWEEN THE LEGS OF REYES AND MINERVA! She heads towards the corner turnbuckles and leaps up onto them! SHE THEN COMES FLYING BACK WITH A DIVING DROPKICK! SHE MANAGES TO GET BOTH OF HER OPPONENTS AT THE SAME TIME!
Rich Russillo: She’s wounded here clearly but she needs to capitalize on this opportunity while it is presenting itself! As Minerva is getting back towards her feet…ARIA DRILLS HER WITH THE SUPERKICK! MINERVA STAGGERS, AND NOW ARIA LOOKS TO FOLLOW UP THAT MOMENTUM! SHE TURNS AND RUNS THE ROPES, RUNNING AT MINERVA FOR-
Persephone: MINERVA JUST POPPED ARIA UP, AND SELINA CAUGHT HER IN MID AIR WITH THE ALAMO KNEE! HAHAHAHA! REYES JUST GOT HER WITH THE ALAMO KNEE! REYES GOES FOR THE COVER, FINALLY THIS IS OVER!!!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT AIZEN GRABS THE LEG OF REYES AND DRAGS HER TO THE OUTSIDE! ONCE AGAIN, A SAVE IS BARELY HERE BROS! AIZEN THEN GETS HER UP AND DROPS HER WITH THE HYOKINDAMA! She collapses herself, clearly using the rest of her energy right there!
Rich Russillo: Minerva is climbing back to her feet, taking stock of everything that’s going on! She sees ARIA lying there defenseless! She takes hold of her…AND THEN GETS HER WITH A KNEE TO THE MIDSECTION! AND NOW SHE LIFTS ARIA UP…GETTING HER IN POSITION FOR ATLAS FALLS!
Persephone: WHAT? ARIA COUNTERS AS SHE’S BEING LIFTED! PHOENIX CUTTER!
Thadd Blazevich: A desperate save here from ARIA…bro…can she do this? She crawls towards the corner ropes, dragging herself up to her feet leaning against them for support! She looks towards the outside and it seems like Aizen is just beginning to stir again! ARIA is still on her own here!
Rich Russillo: SHE LOOKS AT MINERVA…FOCUSED…READY TO WIN THIS! SHE LUNGES FORWARD TO DELIVER JUSTICE 4 ALL!
Thadd Blazevich: BUT MINERVA AVOIDS IT!
Rich Russillo: ARIA scrambles back up to her feet, realizing what just happened! But as she does…MINERVA LUNGES FORWARD AND BASHES HER WITH THE SATAN’S KISS! That headbutt connects and it might have knocked ARIA clean unconscious!
Persephone: Welp…RIP.
Thadd Blazevich: Minerva now scrapes her opponent off the mat and with a smile on her face she hoists her back into the air! This time dude…THIS TIME SHE GETS THE TWISTING BRAINBUSTER! ATLAS FALLS! IT CONNECTS!
Rich Russillo: AND SELINA REYES WAS ABLE TO SEND SAORI AIZEN INTO THE BARRICADE, PREVENTING HER FROM GETTING BACK IN TO BREAK IT UP!
Persephone: ABOUT TIME! MINERVA HOOKS THE LEGS, THIS ONE’S OVER!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Blood, Milk & Sky” by White Zombie, and Minerva sits up as the crowd boos, though giving a slightly mixed reception. A slight grin forms on the face of Minerva as she slowly crawls off of ARIA, and Saori Aizen can be seen at ringside, not pleased whatsoever with what just occurred as Selina Reyes makes her way into the ring.)
Bella Braxton: HERE ARE YOUR WINNERS…THE TEAM OF MIIINNNERRVAAAA AND SEELINNNNAAA REEYEEESS!
Thadd Blazevich: What a match between these two teams! Dude, I am shocked at how well these teams worked together too! Everyone went all out here! But in the end, Minerva was the one that stands tall!
Rich Russillo: Indeed she does, pulling out all the stops in order to get this win tonight! She couldn’t have done it without the help of Reyes though! Reyes was just as determined to win this as anyone. But no one can take away the heart of ARIA who fought like hell at the end there! Aizen too, fighting on even after she had that mist sprayed in her eyes! I mean, that was spectacular tag team action.
(Minerva celebrates in the ring with Reyes joining her in short order. The two listen to the fans jeer and boo but brush them off. Eventually, they make their way out and up the ramp, glowing in their victory.)
Persephone: Welp, good for them I guess. Seems like the actual smart competitors won tonight.
Thadd Blazevich: I don’t know if I’d go that far bro. You can see though inside the ring, Saori Aizen is helping ARIA back to her feet! You can tell that both of them are tremendously disappointed at the outcome here! Neither one of them should have any shame dude.
(ARIA slowly makes her way out of the ring, and Saori Aizen follows as the two begin making their way up the ramp. Neither of them appear to be pleased about the outcome of this match, but not a word is said as the two Elitists slowly make their way to the back.)
(However, as the two slowly approach the top of the ramp, Saori Aizen begins to slightly slow down, beginning to walk directly behind ARIA as she stared at her tag team partner with a cold look on her face.)
Thadd Blazevich: OH NO!!!! I THOUGHT THESE TWO MIGHT’VE ENDED THIS ON GOOD TERMS, BUT BRO, SAORI JUST GRABBED ARIA FROM BEHIND AND SLAMMED HER FACE INTO THE BARRICADE ON THE RAMP!!!!
Rich Russillo: AND WITH THAT SAORI AIZEN SLAMS HER FACE FIRST INTO THE RAMP, BEFORE BEGINNING TO REPEATEDLY DRIVE ELBOWS INTO THE BACK OF HER HEAD! SAORI AIZEN HAS SNAPPED, AND I GUESS WE SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISED!!!! WE KNOW WHAT KIND OF INDIVIDUAL SHE IS, AND WE KNOW WHY SHE WAS WILLING TO COMPETE IN THIS MATCH! THESE TWO WERE UNABLE TO GET THE JOB DONE, AND UNFORTUNATELY ARIA IS PAYING FOR THAT!
Rich Russillo: SAORI GETS UP AND DELIVERS SOME VICIOUS STOMPS TO THE BACK OF ARIA’S HEAD, BEFORE DRAGGING HER BACK UP AND AGAINST THE BARRICADE! SHE THEN IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH THE RAIMEI HAKKE TO THE BACK OF ARIA’S HEAD! Why are we even shocked here!? Aizen is unleashing her frustrations on her own partner!
(Aizen stands up over the broken ARIA, looking down with complete disdain in her eyes.)
Persephone: Oh she ain’t done yet…
Thadd Blazevich: NO SHE ISN’T! SHE GETS ARIA IN THE COFFIN OF THE IRON MOUNTAIN! DUDE! THIS IS JUST GNARLY! COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY!
Rich Russillo: Security is coming out here now! They are trying to pull Saori Aizen off of ARIA! She took it too far…clearly putting all the blame on ARIA’s shoulders here. That was just savage folks.
(On the stage is Minerva and Selina Reyes, who were just about to exit to the back when the attack began. They watch as the security guards slowly pull Saori off of ARIA, who has been left laid out on the ramp. Saori still has a cold look on her eyes, staring at ARIA as she lays in a few more stomps. Minerva and Selina are shown one final time, watching it all unfold as the camera fades out.)
(The next matchcard graphic is shown.)
(https://i.imgur.com/wxj4lkF.png)
(The fans come alive for the graphic. Then, the camera shot switches to where Stephie Love can be seen in the ring, smiling and ready for the introductions.)
Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled foooorrr…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
Stephie Love: And it is for the EAW WOOOORRRLLLD HEEEAVYWEEEIIIGHT CHAAAMPIONSHIIIIP!
Crowd: WOOOOOO! :blessed:
(‘Apostle’s Warning’ by Mobb Deep plays. A mostly positive reaction awaits for Michael Machina as he emerges onto the stage, ready to go. He understands the gravity of the moment, yet he doesn’t waste time soaking anything up. He makes his way down the ramp and to the ring.)
Stephie Love: Introducing first, the challenger! From Brooklyn, New York, he is ‘The New Legend’… MIIIICHAAAEEEEEL MAAAACHIIIINAAAAA!!
Stew-O: A big-time match for Michael Machina, but nothing he isn’t used to. The longest-reigning New Breed Champion of all time. Former EAW World Champion. Now, he gets to compete for yet another title, and this time, it may be the most personal title match of his career. There’s no love loss here between both competitors tonight, and the back and forth has only served to get Michael motivated for a bout like this.
Jake Mercer: It has. However, he ought to be careful, because while he has achieved a lot… he’s only been doing this for two years. Meanwhile, you put that up against the decade-long experience Cy has, and he can use that to his advantage alongside his mentality.
Flannery McCoy: That is good to point out. Yet, Michael is ready nonetheless for what’s to come, and maybe Cy himself should be a bit cautious. This match can get ugly for him if he isn’t careful.
(Michael is in the ring and warms up in his corner. Eventually, his theme fades, and ‘Saint Pablo’ by Kanye West plays, causing the audience to boo. Cy Henderson comes out, the championship along his waist. He takes a moment to stare at Michael from the stage before he makes his way down.)
Stephie Love: And the champion! From New York City, he is the current reigning and defending EAW World Heavyweight Champion… CYYYYY HEEEENDEEEERSOOOOON!!!
Stew-O: The champion is out, keeping a steady stride as we are moments away from this monumental clash. What do you think is going on in his mind, Jake?
Jake Mercer: He wants to remain at the top. He wants to continue to show this era is all his for the taking. He wants for Michael to understand that this isn’t about jealousy or being a young phenom that almost mirrors the earlier success Cy had. He is just here to be the best, and he’s been able to back that up. So, it’s not without the realm of possibility he can defend the title here tonight.
Flannery McCoy: The similarities have been striking between these two, but it may not stay that way for much longer. One of them will be able to prove who’s better than the other, and tonight, one of them will have the world title in their possession!
(Cy slides in, and he and Michael immediately get face to face, trading words. The referee separates them before things get nasty. Cy raises the world heavyweight title up high before handing it off to the official, and with that…)
(DING DING DING!)
Stew-O: And here we go! The World Heavyweight Championship match is underway! Champion and challenger step out from their respective corners and meet in the middle, where they stare each other down. This is going to be intense!
Jake Mercer: No kidding, you can feel it just by looking at them right now. It’s been weeks of back and forth, of conflict, and even scrapping, and it’s all led to this very moment!
Flannery McCoy: All of it is only magnified by the title they’re fighting for tonight. Cy seems to exchange some words with Michael, no doubt harsh, and Machina replies—BEFORE HE CRACKS HIM IN THE FACE WITH A PUNCH! Michael gets the first shot, but CY RESPONDS WITH A FIRM FIST OF HIS OWN! AND NOW BOTH OF THEM ARE FIRING OFF AS THEY ATTACK EACH OTHER!
Jake Mercer: Yep, here we are! This is not going to be a technical clinic! This is going to be a FIGHT!
This
Stew-O: Michael and Cy scuffle as they go up to the ropes, and Michael knees the champion right in the gut! He grabs hold of him, looking for a suplex, but Cy is able to shove him away! Henderson charges forward, decking him with a forearm! Michael staggers! He grabs him by the wrist and whips him into the ropes! Michael comes running back and Cy awaits him on the rebound—
Jake Mercer: Shoulder tackle sends the champion down! Michael was one step ahead that time, and he’s quickly mounting Cy! He’s raining down with those fists, not looking to give him an inch of breathing room. However, Cy’s defending himself pretty well, using his forearms to block off most of those shots! Michael shifts, but the champ uses his feet to push him off of him. They scurry up–and CY WITH THE DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN! NOW IT’S REVERSED! He’s trying to pummel him with mounted punches of his own!
Flannery McCoy: Michael shoves him away though, and races up to his feet! So too does Cy! Michael throws a clothesline his way, and Cy manages to duck underneath it! Another forearm to the face! That seems to stun the Machine, and the champion looks to take advantage as he yanks him in, cradling the arm. He lifts him up….!
Stew-O: …but Michael isn’t budging! Cy heaves and tries again, but it’s the same result! Michael is keeping himself grounded! Cy looks to shift things in a different direction as he takes hold of his head and turns, likely going for a neckbreaker!
Jake Mercer: But Michael slips away and STIFFS HIM IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH AN ELBOW! Goodness! Cy drops to a knee, feeling nothing but pain shooting up in that area! And with him down, Michael is able to come over and land some harsh, clubbing blows to the back. The challenger just might have an early advantage going for him in this clash.
Flannery McCoy: And knowing Michael, that is dangerous territory. He will find a way to overwhelm an opponent when he has the lead, and it doesn’t matter who the Elitist in question might be. He’s going to dominate, and right now he’s on the cusp of that as he jerks Cy up to his feet and wraps his arms around him from behind! German suplex coming!
Stew-O: No! Cy with some back elbows being thrown, peppering him in the side of his head! Michael can’t hold on for long, and he has to let go! He backs up, shaking his head! And this might be what Cy needs as he runs forward at him!
Jake Mercer: RIGHT INTO A STIFF CLOTHESLINE FROM MACHINA! Damn! Caught him clean in the chest, and that may have knocked the wind out from him! Michael shoots down and goes for the immediate pin!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE—
Jake Mercer: Shoulder up! Still, Cy brings his hand to his chest, and you can see the pain that is evident on his face. Sheesh. Tough spot to be in.
Flannery McCoy: It is. Cy sits up, but Michael is right there to cut him off before he can think of gaining some distance between them! He ushers him up to his feet, having hold of his wrist… and he sends him running CHEST-FIRST INTO THE CORNER! Goodness! Cy falls back, clutching that area yet again! Michael is gathering some steam here.
Stew-O: And that is a troubling spot for the champion to be in. Cy needs to find a way to prevent Michael from outright controlling the bulk of this contest. Otherwise, things won’t end well in his favor.
Jake Mercer: Yeah—and he’s going to need to do that soon seeing as how Michael has him up again. Same hold, same everything! He uses his strength to send Cy running—AND INTO THE OTHER CORNER HE GOES, CHEST ONCE AGAIN COLLIDING WITH THE TURNBUCKLE PADDING! NOT A GOOD LOOK HERE!
Flannery McCoy: Yeah. At least this time, Cy has hold of the top ropes to stop himself from completely toppling over, but he sinks down onto one knee! He’s doing his best to keep his bearings together and not collapse, but with him getting this rocked from early, it’s going to be difficult for him to find any ground to stand on immediately—especially with Michael stalking him down once more! What does the challenger have in mind here?
Stew-O: Nothing good, surely. He forces Cy up and props him onto the top turnbuckle. Whatever he plans on hitting here is going to have some dire effects on the champion if he is unable to get himself out of this situation!
Jake Mercer: What goes up must come down, and it’s always going to be horrible for the person on the receiving end of the fall. Michael scales the top, and is looking to change the tides of this match firmly in his favor. He punches Cy! And again! Another hard shot lands! Machina may have very well stunned him, and he’s certain this is it! He hooks the arms and stands!
Flannery McCoy: And Cy… is squirming! He isn’t out just yet! The champion is refusing to remain idle, and the challenger seems just a bit surprised by that! However, Cy is able to slip an arm free and throws a forearm to the gut! Michael keels over! Cy pulls the arm back one more time… and lands a stiff blow to the face! Michael wobbles, and HE FALLS BACK!
Stew-O: HE’S DOWN—BUT NOT ON THE MAT! HE LANDED ON HIS FEET! He’s clutching his jaw after that attack, but he shakes off the cobwebs and storms over to the corner where—WHOA!
Jake Mercer: CROSSBODY BY CY HENDERSON! HE GOT ALL OF IT!
Flannery McCoy: Well, we don’t see that often from him, but a situation like this calls for adaptation, and Cy had to wing it! It paid off as he has Michael’s shoulders down on the mat!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE—
Stew-O: But that only nets him a one count! Not enough to end things!
Jake Mercer: It may not have gotten the job done, but that did throw Michael off his game a bit as he walks right into a shoulder thrust—and Cy is charging ahead, sending him backpedalling into the corner! The world heavyweight champion now is the one on the offense, peppering the challenger with all sorts of punches and shots to the abdomen and ribs, looking to weaken Michael in any way that he can! It seems to be working, too!
Flannery McCoy: Yeah, Michael is getting lit up! He movies his arms down, looking to ween off some of those shots, but Cy changes course almost immediately and strikes him in the head repeatedly!
Stew-O: It’s not going to last for long, however. The official is stepping in, informing Cy that he needs to back up, and the champion isn’t happy about that. He raises his hands up—and MICHAEL STEPS OUT WITH A SWIFT KNEE TO DOUBLE HIM OVER! Cy drops to both knees as he holds onto his stomach!
Jake Mercer: Damn! Just when we thought Cy was overwhelming Michael, the challenger made sure to put a quick end to that! He grabs Cy by the head and drags him out toward the middle of the ring. Michael wastes no time as he hoists him up, and DRIVES him down with the suplex! That sure did have a lot of impact behind it!
Flannery McCoy: It did, and Cy is favoring the small of his spine after being on the harsh receiving end of that move. Michael sits up, rolling his neck around, gathering his own bearings before he rises back up to his feet. Reaching down, he takes hold of Cy’s head again. He leads the champion up, and props him on his shoulders. Seems like he’s going for another huge move here!
Stew-O: And that is the plan… however, the champion isn’t entirely out! He attacks with the sharp point of his elbow crashing into the side of his head! Michael tries to resist, but another elbow connects! This time, Michael lets go! Cy slips off of his shoulders and staggers backward into the ropes, where he breathes heavily. However, Michael turns and sees him. He sprints forward right at him!
Jake Mercer: AND UP AND OVER HE GOES AS CY PULLS DOWN THE TOP ROPE! Great awareness by the veteran Henderson! Michael takes an awkard tumble to the ringside floor, but he has his hands on the apron, looking to try and get back inside!
Flannery McCoy: But that isn’t the only thing there. Cy is on the apron as well! Michael does his best to recover, but he fails to see that the champion is coming right at him—and he takes off, CONNECTING WITH THE DIVING AXE HANDLE! That caught Michael right on the top of his head! Cy is gaining and maintaining control in this fight!
Stew-O: Just what he wants if he wants to walk out of Washington D.C. with the win and the title still in his possession! Henderson grabs Michael and flings him back into the ring. He wastes no time returning to the inside himself, and he crawls over to get the cover! Hook of the leg here!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWWOOOOO—
Stew-O: Shoulder is raised! Michael breaks the count!
Jake Mercer: A good manuever, but it just wasn’t enough. However, while that didn’t seal the deal, it did help to slow down Machina a little bit. He isnt as energetic as he was moments before. That blow to the head seems to have him a bit dazed!
Flannery McCoy: Yeah, and with Michael not charging at him immediately like a bull, that’s giving Cy some time to recover. Michael has really been high-throttle since the bell rang, so a slower pace will benefit the champion more.
Stew-O: It’s an advantage that can make a big difference. Cy garners control, and he takes Michael up. He grabs him from behind and lifts him up, sending him overhead with a German suplex of his own! Hard landing there for Machina! However, Cy isn’t done! He takes hold of him once again, and this time, whips him down with a neckbreaker! Back to back moves leave Michael in a vulnerable spot!
Jake Mercer: They certainly do! Now Cy sits him up and drives his knee into his spine, all the while reaching forward so that he can cinch in on his jaw! He torques his head back, doing what he can to make this chin lock as excruciating as possible! Michael grits his teeth! The referee asks him if he wants to tap… and he shakes his head no! However, you can see just how much of an uncomfortable spot this is for him! He’s gonna have to try and escape, but simply powering out may not be an option.
Flannery McCoy: Yeah, Michael may have to get creative here. Find a bit of a give, a weakness for him to exploit.
Stew-O: It would be easier said than done in this instance, as the champ switches from the chin and grabs hold of his arms. He pulls them allll the way back, further wedging the point of his knee into his spine! Not only is he trying to do more damage, but take out key factors that lend themselves to the pure power Michael possesses!
Jake Mercer: The pressure and wrenching isn’t making this an enjoyable experience at all, and you can see it written on his face! Even with him trying to tough it out, he can’t hide it!
Flannery McCoy: It’s a lot to try and handle… however… Michael is working his way up to his feet! He’s forcing himself through so that he can find a way out of this! Cy is doing his best to keep his grip intact, though! He knows that if Michael is able to break free, it’s going to be bad news all over again for him and this reign!
Stew-O: Urgency is beginning to flicker fast in the mind if Henderson. He shoots a knee into Michael’s lower back! Then again! Again! He shoots for another one, and that nearly doubles him over!
Jake Mercer: But wait! Michael is backpedaling! He’s gaining more and more speed, and he CRUSHES CY BACKWARDS INTO THE CORNER! Cy gasps out! Michael tries to pry himself from him, but the champion at least maintains his hold on his arms!
Jake Mercer: And that serves to backfire on him as Michael raises his arms up and sends Cy tumbling forward, finally breaking that grip! Henderson stumbles up, but turns, and does his best to hurry! He runs over—
Flannery McCoy: —AND RIGHT INTO A BELLY TO BACK SUPPEX THAT SLINGSHOTS HIM INTO THE TURNBUCKLES!! :damn:
Jake Mercer: OH MY GOD! That was BRUTAL!
Flannery McCoy: It is, but things might start to get a whole lot worse here and Michael forces Cy back up and has him up in the air! He storms right in the middle, and JACKHAMMERS HIM DOWN INTO THE CANVAS! Another explosive drop there for Cy! Michael goes for another cover!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOO—
Stew-O: And a kick out! However, Michael won’t allow Cy to escape easily, as he throws a knee to the side of his rib! Cy cringes in pain! Michael throws another knee in, and the champion looks like he’s hurting! The referee gets Michael to ease off, and Cy rolls out onto the apron, clutching on his left side while he winces…
Jake Mercer: Talk about punishment. :lupe: Been a bit since we’ve seen Cy in a vulnerable state, but I guess the back and forth for weeks really fired Michael up. On the flip side, Michael is showing us here tonight that he truly is a legend in his own right as he’s getting the better of yet another hall of famer for a world title!
Flannery McCoy: Yeah. Michael has dominated since his debut, and it may not be entirely out of the realm of reality that he can not only secure a second world title, but his second one in the same year. He just needs to continue to be on the attack and leave Cy vulnerable enough to get the win on his end!
Stew-O: Speaking of—Michael is on the prowl once more. He steps out onto the apron, where he sees that Cy is trying to move, gain some semblance of recovery. Yet Machina does not have mercy at the forefront of his mind as he drags him up, and… oh no!
(CRAAAACK!)
Jake Mercer: :damn:
Flannery McCoy: Oh, goodness! He rammed Cy’s back right into the steel post! Henderson collapses onto the ringside flooring, squirming in agony! And that could very much seal this match emphatically for the challenger tonight! Absolutely gruesome!
Jake Mercer: Bones are not meant to connect with steel, let alone make a sound like that when it comes into contact with it! That’s gonna keep a few fans in the front row up tonight! 😬
Stew-O: But it was what Michael needed, and he scoops Cy up again, before BATTERING HIM INTO THE BARRICADE!
Jake Mercer: Oh dear…
Flannery McCoy: :lupe: !!
Stew-O: Nothing but relentless here tonight! Michael grabs Cy and throws him back into the ring! The challenger closes the distance once more, and goes for a pinfall! Could this be it!?
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO—
Jake Mercer: No! Henderson kicks out! That’s my GOAT! :goat:
Flannery McCoy: :francis: Should have known you would’ve thrown impartiality out the window soon enough in this match…
Jake Mercer: What? I’m just a concerned observer is all, and I am delighted that the defending world champion was not defeated yet in this contest. :observe:
Flannery McCoy: :facepalm:
Stew-O: Either way, Cy manages to survive. The question is: for how much longer? Michael sits up, thinking about his next move. Surely, he figures that the end has to come soon enough.
Flannery McCoy: Yeah. All it takes is one more move in the arsenal to be the bullet… and I have a creeping feeling we are going to see that bullet shot soon.
Stew-O: Cy rolls away from Michael, going all the way toward the opposite side. At least Henderson has enough awareness to do that, but it may be too little too late! Michael is up, and he’s eyeing him down relentlessly! Cy is stirring, but it couldn’t be at a worse moment than this!
Michael Machina: (Off-mic) Get up, Cy… get up…
Jake Mercer: Well, Michael is getting his wish! The champion is up! And he…
Jake Mercer: oh naur.
Flannery McCoy: :roman:
Jake Mercer: He’s, uh… ahaha, he’s not gonna do what I think he’s gonna do… right, guys?
Crowd: :lupe: :lupe:
Stew-O: I’m afraid he will.
Jake Mercer: _ _
Jake Mercer: Yeah, it may be over.
Stew-O: That could be the case! Michael rushes in, and HE’S ABOUT TO DO SERIOUS DAMAGE TO CY HENDERSON! ‘BULLET FROM HELL’ THROUGH THE ROPES!!!
(CRAAAAAAASH!!!!)
Crowd: :damn:
(….)
Jake Mercer: CY MOVED OUT OF THE WAY!!
Flannery McCoy: OH MY GOD! MICHAEL… MICHAEL MACHINA MAY BE OUT COMPLETELY!!
Stew-O: AND THAT BACKFIRED IN THE WORSE WAY POSSIBLE! MICHAEL ISN’T MOVING! CY IS STILL HURTING, BUT HE WAS ABLE TO REMAIN ONE STEP AHEAD OF THE CHALLENGER, AND THIS IS ABSOLUTELY VITAL FOR HIM!
Jake Mercer: It is! This is as clear of a path as it can be for Cy, and seeing Michael, he realizes the chance he’s been afforded! He can’t help but smirk as he knows Michael may have no more fight in him!
Stew-O: It’s taking a lot of effort, but Cy hops down and approaches the challenger. He grabs him and sends him back into the ring! He follows after, and Cy seems to be calling for it! Just one last bullet in his own chamber to fire off with!
Jake Mercer: No care! No regard for Michael’s condition! The champion hoists him up, and SENDS HIM DOWN ONTO THE CANVAS WITH ALL OF HIS MIGHT! ‘PHANTOM DEATH’!!
Flannery McCoy: Clean in the middle! That should do it! Cy crawls over and hooks both legs! For the win!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
(…)
Stew-O: MICHAEL MACHINA GOT THE SHOULDER LIFTED!!
Jake Mercer: WHAT?!!
Flannery McCoy: He.. he did!! Oh my goodness! And the fans are losing their absolute minds! Cy hears the commotion and looks around before his gaze finally lands on the raised arm of Michael! His eyes widens in immediate disbelief!
Jake Mercer: Well, you can’t blame him for being in such a state of shock! We all thought that was gonna be it for Michael after that horrible spill through the ropes! However, this man is just different! This is INSANE!
Stew-O: It is! However, you have to wonder if it is even smart for Michael to have persisted! He hit his head and shoulder badly, and his eyes almost looked glazed over!
Flannery McCoy: :yikes: This could very well do more harm than good, but either way, the match is still on—and that means Cy should get a move on instead of arguing with the referee!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOO!!!
Stew-O: The fans certainly don’t like the arguing, and they’re right, as Cy saw for himself that Michael broke up the pin attempt! The official is warning the champion that he needs to get back into the match, and Cy shakes his head, frustration evident. At least he manages to back off and redirect his attention over to the downed challenger…
Jake Mercer: Yeah, the jaw-jacking was absolutely unnecessary. Michael is still good as dead here. He can hardly even move his body!
Flannery McCoy: But Cy still seems to be seeing red, because he storms on over and stomps away at him! Oh, come on, now this is not needed! The challenger is hurt as is! Just finish this match already!
Stew-O: Cy has had enough! He felt insulted by Michael, and he’s even more insulted by the fact that this bout isn’t already called in his favor! The champion hurls him up and shoves him into the corner, where he continues his flurry! Nothing but stomps riddle Michael’s stomach, and this time, there is not much he can do with his state! He can’t defend himself against those blows properly!
Jake Mercer: Nothing but a nasty attack all around, but it’s effective! Michael almost slips down into a seated position, but Cy forces him back up and lands one more stiff boot! The challenger is now raised, being situated on the top turnbuckle! Cy follows, and he’s up as well, bludgeoning him with more punches!
Flannery McCoy: Michael is in bad shape here. Cy has full leeway to do whatever he has to do to add further insult to injury… and it speaking of, it seems like one of those punches managed to bust him open right above the brow! Cy continues to punch away, making things worse!
Stew-O: Just ruthless. Pure, unfettered ruthlessness.
Jake Mercer: Well, it’s not going to stop there. Cy takes hold of Michael and comes to a stand! He lifts him up… AND DOWN HE GOES WITH THE AVALANCHE SUPERPLEX!
Flannery McCoy: And that probably hurt Cy, agitating the pain he feels in the ribs, but through the grimacing, he rises to his knees! Meanwhile, Michael is at a complete loss! He barely shifts onto his side!
Stew-O: Cy staggers to his feet… and the champion is grinning. He can feel the end rapidly approaching.
Jake Mercer: He’s motioning for Michael to get up… and he’s… actually moving?
Flannery McCoy: Couldn’t have come in the most inconvenient time for him, though. He does NOT want to get back to his feet!
(Blood is on his face. Limbs wobbly. The entire arena is spinning. Michael nearly falls over, but somehow, someway, he struggles to his feet. Through the crimson-tinted gaze, he sees Cy…)
(But he is weak.)
Stew-O: And Cy wastes no time! He sprints forward, and pivots on his feet! HE WIPES MICHAEL MACHINA OUT WITH THE ‘CYCLONE LARIAT’!
Jake Mercer: NO!!
Crowd: :damn:
Flannery McCoy: ‘BULLET FROM HELL’!!!
Stew-O: OH MY GOD!! HOW DID HE PULL IT OFF?!!
(No one knows. However, the entire arena explodes in shock as Michael chops Cy down with the spear. Both men are laid out on the mat.)
(But Michael’s arm is on Cy’s chest.)
Stew-O: AND THAT’S A COVER! A COVER! THE REFEREE SLIDES IN, AND BEGINS THE COUNT!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
(…)
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!
(…)
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..!
(…)
Jake Mercer: NO!! CY’S SHOULDER IS UP!!!
Flannery McCoy: AND MUCH IN THE SAME WAY MICHAEL WAS ABLE TO PERSIST, THE CHAMPION DOES! MICHAEL ROLLS OFF OF HIM, STARING UP AT THE CEILING! EVEN WITH HIM CATCHING CY BY SURPRISE, IT JUST WASN’T ENOUGH!
Jake Mercer: At this rate, what is it going to take for either Elitists to win this match?!!
Stew-O: It just goes to show how much the world heavyweight championship means a lot to both competitors! Cy was able to prove that he could rewrite his legacy, whereas Michael has shown there is no slowing down with the legacy he’s crafting for himself! Tonight, one of them will be able to further cement themselves within the annals of EAW history!
(Michael is able to roll over onto his side, though he remains dazed and hurting. Cy is barely able to shift himself away from the challenger. The champion is in a horrid state. Arms lace around his aching ribs.)
Jake Mercer: Something’s got to give here! Who is going to be the first to get up!?
(…)
Flannery McCoy: … it looks like it’s going to be Michael! He’s struggling, but he’s motioning to rise up once more! He’s able to get to his feet, and now, the other one! His legs almost give out underneath him, but he stumbles toward the ropes where he’s using them to help keep him upright!
Stew-O: Meanwhile, Cy is having a hard time gathering his bearings! All he can do is muster himself up to a knee as the pain he feels continues to reverbate throughout his entire being. These two have taken one another to the absolute limit, and it’s only a matter of time before one of them breaks.
Jake Mercer: But Michael does not intend on being the one who breaks here. It’s a hard endevour, yet he soldiers through and heads over to the champion, getting him up. He takes him into the corner, and it seems like he’s poised to keep the attack on Cy going!
Flannery McCoy: But Cy isn’t out entirely! He’s struggling, but fighting back, shoving Michael away! Michael takes a few steps back, but he walks over, and again, attempts to seize control back in his favor. A bit of an awkward scuffle is happening here as Cy is trying to defend himself—
(SMAAAACK!)
Flannery McCoy: Oh! And Cy just slapped Michael right across the face!
Michael Machina: (off-mic) …
Jake Mercer: Uh oh… I don’t like that look on his face…
Stew-O: But Cy, he doesn’t seem to care! He’s actually smirking while Michael is becoming visibly irate!
(And some words are exchanged, though the cameras don’t pick up on it. However, whatever it was that Cy said gets Michael heated, because—)
Jake Mercer: AND NOW MICHAEL IS GOING CRAZY! HE’S WAILING ON CY! :damn:
Flannery McCoy: Cy is trying to cover up to the best of his abilities but Michael is going beserk! The referee comes in and gets in between both of them!
Referee: (off-mic) Alright, Michael, back it up! Ease off!
Stew-O: And Michael is still trying to push past the official, but they’re not backing down! They’re caught in the middle, and— WAIT!
Flannery McCoy: LOW BLOW FROM CY HENDERSON! HE KICKED MICHAEL IN BETWEEN THE REFEREE! THEY DID NOT SEE!
Jake Mercer: :damn:
Stew-O: Michael goes down in a heap, and the referee turns, seeing him drop suddenly! They’re confused! They go to check on Michael, who’s curled up…
(And then, the fans boo.)
Jake Mercer: …!! Cy took something out of his pocket!
Flannery McCoy: It’s those brass knuckles! Of course he’d have them ready to go! :francis: !!
Stew-O: And this is not good for Michael! Cy has a nasty equalizer in hand here! He stands dormant in the corner as he waits for his moment to strike—all while keeping that loaded hand concealed from the referee’s view!
Jake Mercer: Well, this is lights out for Michael! He’s getting up, but he has NO idea what’s going to hit him shortly!
Flannery McCoy: And here comes Cy, ready to swing…!
Stew-O: AND HE GOES DOWN!!!
Crowd: :damn:
Jake Mercer: ’WITH A THIRD BULLET FROM HELL’—TAKING HIM RIGHT INTO THE CORNER!
Flannery McCoy: OH MY GOD!!
(Michael’s shoulder is embedded into his abdomen. Cy is stuck in the corner. The third and final bullet hit him, and this time, the pain is unbearable.)
(The brass knuckles slip from his fingers and falls to the mat.)
(Cy’s head slowly lowers…)
Stew-O: AND MICHAEL MACHINA THWARTED HIM! EVEN WITH THE CHEAPSHOT, THE BLOOD, THE PAIN THAT IS ROCKING HIM, HE WAS STILL ABLE TO STOP THE CHAMPION BEFORE HE COULD GET TO HIM!
(Michael slowly pries himself away from the champion. Cy falls flat on his face. He is out.)
Jake Mercer: :damn: :damn: :damn:
Flannery McCoy: MICHAEL GRABS CY, AND HE LEADS HIS NEAR-LIFELESS BODY ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP! THE FANS ALL STAND, HAVING A FEELING OF WHAT’S TO COME! THE CHALLENGER HAS THE CHAMPION DEAD TO RIGHTS HERE!
(And everyone watches as, through the discomfort, Michael is able to situate himself and Cy at the top. With Michael seated on the top turnbuckle and Cy hunched over in front of him, Machina uses his instincts to help wrap his arms around the champion. Before his strength leaves him, he hoists him up—)
Stew-O: AND DOWN CY HENDERSON GOES WITH THE ‘MIDAS TOUCH’!!
Jake Mercer: ALL THE WAY FROM THE TOP, AND WITH HOW CY’S RIBS HAVE BEEN DAMAGED THROUGHOUT THIS MATCH, THIS MAY BE IT!
Flannery McCoy: THAT TOOK A LOT OUT OF MICHAEL, BUT HE’S ABLE TO GET THE PIN!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Stew-O: AND THAT IS IT! FINALLY, THAT IS IT!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(‘Apostle’s Warning’ by Mobb Deep plays. The fans lose their minds. Michael Machina rolls himself off of Cy Henderson and remains laying on the mat. However, he can’t help but have a faint smile on his face, soaking in the reality he was able to work hard towards even in his own dire state.)
Stephie Love: Here is your winner…. AAAANNNNNND NEEEEEEEEEWWWWW EAW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…. MIIIIIIICHHHHAAAAEEEEEEL MAAAAACHHIIIIIIINNNAAAAAA!!!
Jake Mercer: :wow:
Stew-O: And for the second time this year, Michael Machina can call himself a world champion! Just three months removed from when he lost the EAW World Championship to Adam Lucas at Pain for Pride, The New Legend was only able to write a new chapter in his growing tale of dominance here in Elite Answers Wrestling! It was one of the most taxing matches of his career, but he prevailed, and he was able to defeat Cy Henderson here tonight!
Flannery McCoy: It really was an insane match. Just absolutely brutal on all accounts. However, Michael pulled through, even when it looked like things were turning out for the worst with him. He was able to get the win, and now, he is the new EAW World Heavyweight Champion!
Jake Mercer: Damn… well, you can’t hate it. Michael is inevitable. Cy did his best to keep the beast at bay, but now he’s another victim of him. At least my GOAT showed he wasn’t washed. 🙏
Stew-O: Cy did change, and not for the better. He became desperate and turned back on his ideals of redemption… but there’s no mistaking that he showed he could be a world champion-caliber Elitist again, and from Grand Rampage to now, he was able to prove the doubters wrong. Still, ironic how he ended one young era only to be topped by another one.
Flannery McCoy: Guess you can say it’s almost full circle, in a way. He was able to keep up in a new era of EAW, but it was only going to last for so long. His five month reign comes to an end, and with it… the era of Michael Machina gets to be revitalized. Congratulations to him!
(Michael is able to sit up before the referee hands him the title. He takes it. Even though his limbs felt heavy, he’s able to rise to his feet. Emerging victorious, he raises the world heavyweight championship up high. Confetti comes down from the rafters. Pyro explodes.)
(The final shot shows Michael standing tall before Territorial Invasion fades elsewhere…)
(For the last time tonight, a match graphic flashed across the screen.)
(It was finally time.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!
Bella Braxton: AND IT’S WAR GAMES!!!!!
(The crowd came unglued as ‘Like Weezy’ by PLAYBOI CARTI blasted out of the stadium speakers.)
Bella Braxton: INTRODUCING FIRST… REPRESENTING THE REIGNING AND DEFENDING WAR GAMES CHAMPION SHOWDOWN… JOSO… THE HALL OF FAMER IMPACT… AND BEA VALENTINE!!!
(Joso led his team out and waved Showdown’s flag. He planted it down on the stage and started to head for the ring. Impact and Bea made their way to the first of three holding cells. They were locked in as Joso got into the ring, ready to start War Games and defend Showdown’s win from last season.)
(But that wasn’t going to be easy.)
(‘Pride and Arrogance’ started to play next and the reaction of the crowd was par for the course. Drake Armstrong, Hans Grayson, and Kai Rabeaux walked out heavy boos which was honestly a new experience for Hans.)
Bella Braxton: THEIR OPPONENTS… REPRESENTING VOLTAGE… THE KING OF ELITE DRAKE ARMSTRONG, MR. CASH IN THE VAULT HANS GRAYSON, AND THE 24/7 CONTRACT HOLDER KAI RABEAUX!!!!
(Drake planted the flag next to Showdown and exchanged a few words with his team. Hans and Kai both carried black bags with them which wasn’t surprising. They were from Voltage and chaos had become embedded in their blood. Of course they would bring weapons with them. They were going to do anything to win.)
(Hans and Kai were directed to the middle holding cell while Drake headed to the ring. He eyed up Joso and smirked, knowing there was no love lost between them. Drake got himself ready as his music faded out, and then…)
(‘Vent (Original Version)’ by Baby Keem ft. Kendrick Lamar started to play. Methuselah walked out with BRAE right behind and trailing behind was Drake King and the mysterious Sister Annabelle.)
Bella Braxton: AND THEIR OPPONENTS… THE HALL OF FAMER METHUSELAH… THE HALL OF FAMER DRAKE KING… AND THE REIGNING EAW INTERWIRE CHAMPION BRAE!!!
(Methuselah slammed the Dynasty flag and kicked over the ones belonging to Voltage and Showdown. He didn’t bother to say anything to his teammates. Time for talking was done. He stormed to the ring while BRAE and Drake were ushered into the last holding cell. Methuselah wasted no time getting into the ring and shedding his coat. He jumped around for a moment or two, signalling that he was ready.)
(They were all ready and once Methuselah’s music stopped, so did his movement.)
(The captains stood inside the ring and the tension was palpable. Methuselah, Drake Armstrong, and Joso were waiting for that bell to ring. No one’s feelings had been spared in the lead-up to this moment right here and that’s how it should be, right? There’s no need to play nice when something as valuable as personal pride is on the line, and the three men inside the cage knew that more than anyone. They had prepared their respective squads to the best of their abilities, each with different methods of ‘empowerment’. Each had had their leadership questioned through the week and had done their best to defend their individual ideologies. The war of words had set the tone for this match, but the talking part was over.)
(It was time to do what each man had come to War Games to do.)
(The referee inside the ring actually looked nervous. In fact, the entire crowd had fallen silent. For some reason, this particular War Games match felt different. It felt more volatile. Blood was going to spill, but how much was up for debate. Perhaps all of the anticipation could be attributed to the eclectic collection of personalities that would be competing in this year’s spectacle. It was a mix of old and new; veterans of EAW as well as of War Games itself, and those poised to take over the mantle, sooner rather than later.)
(There weren’t any rules to explain because there weren’t any. War Games wouldn’t officially begin until all three teams had been released from their holding cells and stepped into battle. The brave official looked from Methuselah to Armstrong to Joso. If any of the three felt nerves, it didn’t show on their faces.)
(They were poised.)
(They were focused.)
(They were ready.)
(The referee took a deep breath and he called for the bell.)
DING! DING! DING!
(At first, no one moved. The bell ringing was just a formality, after all. This wasn’t the meal. This was the appetizer, and it was up to each captain to set the tone for what was to come.)
(Methuselah knew it would be easy to cut down two of his brightest stars with a spear that was capable of ripping both men in half. It was on his mind to do exactly that, but he wasn’t the type to show his hand too early. He wanted to play with his food first, so to speak.)
(Armstrong was likely the most prepared captain inside the cage, but even he hesitated to throw the first punch. To go after Joso would be predictable and likely what most expected of him considering how critical he’d been of Joso’s leadership. But to go right for Methuselah’s jugular? That was more in line with the Armstrong way.)
(Joso didn’t have a particular care of who to target first. His team had made the final stand on last week’s episode of Voltage and they refused to be taken lightly. People seemed to be forgetting he was a former World Heavyweight Champion, in addition to the other accolades he’d collected in his career so far. Now seemed as good of a time as any to remind everyone of exactly what ‘The Star Player’ was made of.)
Persephone: I don’t understand why they’re just standing there! Like start beating each other up!
(Persephone wasn’t the only person with a thirst for blood. War Games was the culmination of the entire weekend and the fans were ready.)
(Joso’s hand twitched at his side. It was a subtle gesture but Armstrong caught it.)
(Methuselah caught the slight movement of Armstrong’s eyes in Joso’s direction.)
Stew-O: SPEAR! SPEAR! METHUSELAH JUST CUT DRAKE ARMSTRONG AND JOSO IN HALF WITH A SPEAR!
(So much for not showing his hand early.)
Gavin Kirkland: Joso just got tossed into the second ring and Methuselah is looking to put the boots to Drake Armstrong! He’s targeting the ribcage, and putting all his force into those stomps. Drake is trying to roll towards the ropes, but Methuselah kicks him right in the back of the head. The Chairman drops a knee to that same area, and he pulls Drake Armstrong up to his feet!
(The chop Methuselah caught Drake with echoed throughout Nationals Park. The King of Elite’s chest immediately turned red and he couldn’t hide the look of discomfort on his face. Methuselah unleashed a series of rabid fire chops that brought Drake to his knees. He followed up with a knee to the face, and then sprinted for the ropes. A running dropkick knocked the spit right out of Drake’s mouth and Methuselah kipped up with a sinister grin on his face.)
Persephone: I didn’t know 80-year olds could do that.
Stew-O: I don’t think we should ever assume Methuselah can’t do something. How many times has he defied the odds?
Persephone: I hope he breaks a hip at some point tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: Drake is pulled up by the hair and Methuselah chucks him into the corner. He wastes no time with a running corner clothesline, and Drake finds himself in a sticky situation! Those trademark boxing style punches are absolutely destroying Drake Armstrong right now!
Stew-O: BACKSTABBER!!! Joso from behind! He takes Methuselah down with a backstabber! Joso leaps in the air and catches a stumbling Drake Armstrong with a huge forearm! Drake falls back into the corner and Joso runs around the ring and slams into Drake with a facewash style kick!
Persephone: And this is the man who decided he would be the Voltage captain. Cute.
Gavin Kirkland: CAPTAIN JOSO :blessed:!!! He has Drake Armstrong up… AND THERE’S ‘INCOMING SILENCE’!!! The sit-out spin-out powerbomb connects on Armstrong! Joso grabs Drake and tosses him into the second ring!
Stew-O: Joso’s attention is turned to Methuselah now! Methuselah watched the entire exchange between Joso and Drake unfold and he’s got a smile on his face.
Persephone: He somehow gets more ugly when he smiles.
(Joso and Methuselah locked eyes and the Chairman slowly rose to his feet. While the smile remained for Methuselah, Joso had a much more serious look on his face. He wasn’t about to take Methuselah lightly, and certainly not in this type of environment. He knew how dangerous someone like Ryan Adams could be.)
(The two men circled one another, never breaking eye contact. Joso tried to initiate a lock-up but Methuselah brushed him off. He wasn’t interested in that. Joso called for a test of strength. Methuselah laughed at that. Joso felt his patience being tested and he stopped in the center of the ring.)
Joso: (off-mic) Man, what the fuck?
Persephone: THE OLD JUST SLAPPED THE TASTE RIGHT OUT OF JOSO’S MOUTH!
Stew-O: Joso doesn’t like that at all! He tackles Methuselah to the ground and is throwing straight right hands at him!
Gavin Kirkland: Methuselah tosses Joso off but Joso is right back on the attack! Methuselah grabs him by the throat and forces himself to his feet! Joso is kicking and flailing as Methuselah lifts him up and brings him down with a two-handed choke slam!
Persephone: Joso is grabbing his throat and Methuselah is reaching into his boot! What’s he got???
Stew-O: THOSE ARE MINI PLIERS!!!
Gavin Kirkland: METHUSELAH FORCES JOSO’S MOUTH OPEN AND GOES FOR HIS TONGUE!!! HE’S GOT JOSO’S TONGUE IN THE OPENING OF THOSE PLIERS AND HE’S TRYING TO MAIM HIM!
Persephone: 😍 And so it begins!
Stew-O: METHUSELAH IS ATTEMPTING TO PULL JOSO’S TONGUE OUT AND HE DOESN’T SEE DRAKE ARMSTRONG CREEPING UP BEHIND HIM!!!
(Indeed the Armstrong heir had recovered and had picked his spot. Joso was being tortured by the much more experienced Methuselah, but ‘The Master Builder’ had left his back turned towards a very dangerous enemy.)
Gavin Kirkland: METHUSELAH GOES DOWN LIKE A TON OF BRICKS!!
(Armstrong stood above the fallen body of the Chairman and basked in the jeers of the crowd. He held his hand up and the stadium lighting reflected on what was on it. Drake wore the coveted Armstrong family ring that had always been his trademark weapon of sorts. Early into what would surely be a brutal match, it had already served its purpose.)
(Drake looked down at Joso, who had blood pouring from his mouth and then he turned to Methuselah, who had sat up and was grabbing the back of his head.)
(Drake retrieved the pliers from the ground and started to stab Methuselah in the back of the head. He was relentless, making sure he busted open the Chairman. When the blood started to pour, Drake used the pliers to dig an even deeper hole and once he was satisfied over the damage done, he tossed the weapon outside of the cage.)
Persephone: Didn’t take long for someone to become a blood faucet. Thank Gawd for that because I was prepared to walk out if this match was boring. Do you think Methuselah is old enough for blood thinners yet? If he’s on Eliquis, he may end up bleeding out!
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t think we have to worry about blood being shed in a match like this. I have a feeling it’s only going to get worse.
Persephone: Good. If this doesn’t result in an actual death, this whole match will have been a waste of time. I’m tired of seeing these people live.
(Commentary continued while Drake set his steely gaze upon Joso. Showdown’s captain was spitting blood onto the mat and trying to gauge how bad the damage was to his mouth.)
(Drake wasn’t interested in giving Joso any time to recover and he nearly kicked Joso’s teeth in.)
(A trail of blood marked the path as Drake pulled Joso into the corner. A sick idea was forming in the hellscape of Drake’s mind and it wasn’t anything that would benefit Joso at all.)
(Drake hoisted the former champion up and tied him into the Tree of Woe position. What came next was a display of sheer brutality. Drake grabbed Joso’s wrists and started stomping directly down on Joso’s face. It was a modified version of ‘Drakenomics’ and it was particularly unfortunate for Joso since there would be no referee to administer the count.)
(Blood was pouring from Joso’s mouth AND nose now. Drake gave him one final stomp and Joso crumbled to the mat.)
(The diabolical Voltage Elitist then turned his attention to Methuselah. It didn’t surprise Armstrong whatsoever to see Methuselah pulling himself up by the ropes. Drake dashed over to him and sent him back to the mat with a nasty running knee.)
(Another thought came to mind and Drake chuckled to himself. He picked Methuselah up and tied him to the ropes in a REVERSE Tree of Woe. With Methuselah’s legs bent at an unusual angle, the back of his bloody head was exposed. Drake jerked Methuselah’s wrists back and started stomping on the wound he’d already created.)
(Fresh blood poured from Methuselah’s wound and Armstrong seemed to be delighted by this. He continued to stomp away on Methuselah without a care in the world.)
(With Drake caught up in his own lust for blood, Joso pushed himself up. A wad of blood and spit hit the mat and he was pissed off.)
(Showdown’s hopes of a repeat had been placed squarely on Joso’s capable shoulders and he wasn’t about to let the brand down. Besides, he had his own surprise tucked safely away in his boot. The audience went wild as Joso removed a small chain and got to his feet.)
Stew-O: JOSO WRAPPED HIS CHAIN AROUND DRAKE’S NECK AND NOW HE’S STRANGLING HIM!!! DRAKE IS FLAILING ABOUT AND TRYING TO BREAK FREE BUT ALL THAT DOES IS MAKE JOSO TIGHTEN HIS GRIP!!!
Gavin Kirkland: DRAKE’S EYES ARE BULGING OUT OF HIS HEAD AND HIS FACE IS TURNING PURPLE!!!
(As Joso continued to choke out Armstrong, the lights dimmed inside the stadium. The fans immediately stood and let loose their emotions because business, as they say, was about to pick up.)
(The holding cells containing the remaining members of team Dynasty, team Showdown, and team Voltage were highlighted before the spotlights started to flash. After a moment or two of further suspense, the lights were cut.)
(Then only one cell was lit.)
Gavin Kirkland: Welp…
(The cell was opened…)
Persephone: HANS GRAYSON AND KAI RABEAUX ARE ON THEIR WAY!!! AND EACH OF THEM HAVE A BLACK BAG WITH THEM!!! :blessed:
(Joso, who had turned towards the stage to see which team would get to enter the match first, dropped Drake’s deadweight immediately. Armstrong had effectively been choked out and wasn’t a worry at the moment. Joso wrapped his chain around one hand and knelt down, plucking that Armstrong ring and placing it on his own hand.)
Stew-O: MR. CASH IN THE VAULT AND THE 24/7 CONTRACT HOLDER HIT THE RING AND JOSO IS READY!!!
Gavin Kirkland: JOSO GREETS THE VOLTAGE TEAM WITH THOSE LOADED FISTS! KAI GOES DOWN FIRST, THE ARMSTRONG RING CATCHING HIM IN THE MOUTH!
Persephone: HANS STAGGERS BACK AND TRIPS OVER DRAKE’S BODY AS JOSO CONNECTS WITH A NASTY UPPERCUT! THE CHAIN CUT HANS’ CHEEK AND KAI IS BACK UP! HE CATCHES JOSO IN THE GUT AND FOLLOWS UP WITH A KICK TO THE FACE!!!
Stew-O: JOSO FALLS BACK AGAINST THE ROPES BUT USES THE MOMENTUM TO TACKLE KAI TO THE GROUND! HE’S WAILING AWAY ON KAI BUT HANS RIPS HIM OFF HIS PARTNER!!
Gavin Kirkland: JOSO IS TOSSED INTO THE CORNER AND HANS STARTS STOMPING AWAY! KAI REGROUPS AND OPENS ONE OF THE BAGS!
Persephone: KAI PULLS OUT A LEADPIPE AND TOSSES IT TO HANS! HANS SLAMS THE WEAPON INTO JOSO’S GUT AND TAKES HIM BY THE WRIST…
Stew-O: WHIPPING HIM RIGHT INTO ‘HOLLOW POINT’ DELIVERED BY KAI! MODIFIED DOUBLE TEAM VERSION OF A RUNNING HIGH KICK AND JOSO IS OUT!!!
Persephone: EWWWW! LOOK WHO’S UP THOUGH!!!!
(Methuselah had arisen, though that should not have been a shock. Kai and Hans had turned their attention to their captain, who’d started to show signs of life. It was truly a grave mistake to make, especially in a match like War Games. Methuselah had won this match multiple times in the past and as he got to his feet, he sneered at the sight of Voltage’s team.)
(Armstrong was groggy. His throat burned. His lungs felt like they were on fire. His vision, not yet fully in focus, still managed to take note of the threat that loomed behind his teammates. He tried to warn them but his voice didn’t work.)
(Methuselah’s sneer turned into the type of smile you see in nightmares.)
Drake Armstrong: (off-mic and choking) Behind you…
(Simultaneously, Hans and Kai turned around.)
Gavin Kirkland: SPEAR! SPEAR! METHUSELAH JUST TOOK HANS AND KAI BOTH OUT WITH A SINGLE SPEAR!
Persephone: What a fucking waste of a team. Seriously?
Stew-O: DRAKE IS TRYING TO GET TO HIS FEET BUT METHUSELAH JUST BROKE HIM IN HALF WITH ONE OF THE MOST BRUTAL SPEARS I HAVE EVER SEEN!
(Methuselah took a deep breath and glanced down at the fallen Voltage squad. Satisfied they were subdued for the moment, the Chairman headed for the bag that’d housed the leadpipe. It didn’t take him very long to find something useful. A plastic bag was removed from inside the black bag and Methuselah made a great show of turning it over and letting hundreds of shiny, beautiful, brand new razor blades drop to the mat.)
Gavin Kirkland: Oh hell…
(Kai would be the first to suffer Methuselah’s wraith. He pulled him towards the pile of razorblades and placed the young rookie’s head directly into the middle of the pile. He took hold of Kai’s wrists, placed his foot directly on Kai’s face, and started stomping the absolute hell out of him.)
(The back of Kai’s head slammed into the razorblades over and over again. Pretty soon a river of blood was flowing from the wounds Methuselah inflicted on him. Kai had done a lot of talking leading up to War Games; his words striking a nerve with all of his opponents. Methuselah wanted him to pay dearly for that, and Kai was in no position to defend himself.)
(It was gory.)
(It was glorified hazing.)
(It was a lesson Methuselah wanted Kai to remember for the rest of his career.)
Persephone: That’s a morbid thing to do to a bald man and I think it’s fucking hilarious.
Stew-O: Suffice to say, Kai Rabeaux just got introduced to the brutality of War Games in the worst possible way.
(Methuselah pulled Kai up and tossed his bloody carcass across the ring. He turned his attention to Hans Grayson, who was recovering and looking to stand up. Methuselah snatched Hans by the hair and tossed him into the pile of razorblades.)
(Hans attempted to push himself up, but Methuselah rushed forward and crushed the young Elitist’s face into the razorblades via the ‘Painfully Ever After’ curbstomp, his beloved and perfect wife’s signature move. Hans was tossed across the ring as well, landing directly on top of Kai, and that left Armstrong to suffer alone.)
Gavin Kirkland: BEHIND METHUSELAH!
Stew-O: JOSO LIFTS METHUSELAH UP INTO AN ARGENTINE BACKBREAKER RACK AND TRANSITIONS IT INTO A KNEE LIFT! HE CALLS THAT ‘GRATEFUL DEATH’ AND METHUSELAH LANDS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THOSE RAZORBLADES!
Persephone: JOSO IS GRABBING DRAKE ARMSTRONG NOW AND HE SPIKES HIM DOWN ON TOP OF METHUSELAH!! JOSO IS GOING TO THE TOP ROPE AND LISTEN TO THE SHEEP! THEY ARE RALLYING BEHIND JOSO!!
(The stadium had filled with chants for Showdown’s leader and Joso took a second to acknowledge it. A large smile crossed his face and then he took a leap of faith.)
Gavin Kirkland: THE FROG SPLASH MISSES :noah:!! METHUSELAH AND DRAKE ARMSTRONG MOVED AND MY CAPTAIN JUST LANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THOSE DAMN RAZORBLADES!!
Stew-O: JOSO IS WITHERING AROUND IN PAIN AND GRABBING AT HIS STOMACH!! THE OPPORTUNISTIC DRAKE ARMSTRONG HAS A RAZORBLADE IN HIS HAND AND HE’S HACKING AWAY AT JOSO!!!
Persephone: HANS AND KAI ARE BACK IN THIS MATCH AND THEY’VE SWARMED METHUSELAH!! KAI IS BEATING THE OLD FUCK WITH THE LEADPIPE WHILE HANS IS STOMPING HIS WRINKLED FACE IN!!!
Gavin Kirkland: JOSO IS FIGHTING BACK AGAINST DRAKE WITH HIS OWN RAZORBLADE!!! THEY’RE BOTH BACK UP AND SLASHING AT ONE ANOTHER!!!
Stew-O: KAI COMES UP BEHIND JOSO AND WHIPS HIM AROUND! JOSO IS KICKED IN THE STOMACH AND LIFTED UP IN THE POWERBOMB POSITION!!!
Persephone: HANS STABS A RAZORBLADE INTO HIS BOOT!! KAI HOLDS ONTO JOSO!!! HANS WITH A SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF JOSO’S HEAD WITH THAT LOADED BOOT!!
Gavin Kirkland: AND JOSO IS POWERBOMBED INTO THE RAZORBLADES!!!
(Despite their love for Hans Grayson, the crowd started to boo. The three members of Team Voltage stood tall in the middle of the ring while Joso and Methuselah were laid out. Drake and his teammates exchanged knowing looks, finally taking advantage of their numbers, and they knew it was time to maximize the damage while they still had time.)
(Hans retrieved the leadpipe and turned his attention to Methuselah. Drake and Kai went for Joso. The next few moments were nothing more than complete and utter Voltage domination.)
(Hans settled on the mat next to ever dangerous Methuselah and placed the leadpipe directly across Methuselah’s face. Hans pulled back, putting direct pressure on Methuselah’s neck and he closed his eyes. He went to a quiet place in his mind and just focused on inflicting as much damage to one of the biggest threats in the match that he possibly could.)
(Kai and Drake decided to leave Joso in the middle of the mess of razorblades. They took turns stomping and kicking the popular young Elitist. It was a mugging, for lack of a better term, and when Drake decided to pull Joso up, the camera zoomed in for a grisly shot of the blood soaked canvas.)
(It was shocking to the crowd to see how much had accumulated in such a short amount of time and everyone inside of Nationals Stadium knew that the worst was yet to come. All they could do was settle back in their chairs and wait for another team to make their entrance.)
(Drake brought Joso to the corner and propped him up. Joso was bleeding, lifeless, and unable to defend himself. This delighted the reigning King of Elite as he knelt down and took Joso’s face in his hands. The camera didn’t pick up whatever vile words Drake was saying to one of his biggest rivals, but the sound of Drake’s hand hitting Joso’s face seemingly echoed. Drake slapped Joso again before standing up and spitting on him.)
(After that, Drake strolled casually to the center of the ring and raised his hands in the air.)
(The deafening jeers of the crowd brought Hans back into the present. He scowled at the image of Drake showboating in the middle of the ring and shook his head. He looked for Kai, who was using his foot to choke out Joso. Hans released the hold he had on Methuselah and stood, clutching the leadpipe in one hand, while his other one wrapped in Merhuselah’s hair. He dragged Methuselah to the center of the ring and tossed him down at Drake’s feet. Drake took the leadpipe and went to work bashing in Methuselah’s head.)
(Kai grabbed for Joso and joined his two teammates in the center of the ring. He pulled Joso into a standing position and held on to him while Hans punched and kicked him.)
(Drake hoisted Methuselah up and held onto him as Kai had done to Joso, then handed off the leadpipe to Hans. ‘The Fireheart’ did the same thing to Joso as he had done to Methuselah and then struck Joso across the jaw with the leadpipe. Drake let go of Joso and watched as he hit the mat with a thud.)
(Hans’ wasn’t necessarily proud of himself, considering the amount of aggression he had displayed. However, Drake and Kai were pleased, and in the end, it was War Games.)
Drake Armstrong: (off-mic) This is no match for the weak. You know this.
(Hans didn’t offer a reply. He knelt down and sank back on his haunches. His face was a storm cloud of varying emotions.)
Persephone: I really don’t understand why Hans looks so fucking conflicted. Surely he knew what he was getting into…
Stew-O: Unlike most, Hans has his own moral code.
Persephone: Man, fuck that.
(Kai and Drake picked up their two enemies and dragged them to separate corners of the ring. Both men knew that time was ticking. Any moment the pods of Showdown and Dynasty would light up and help would be on the way. Whether it would be for Joso or Methuselah was a toss-up, and it didn’t matter. The odds would be evened and time was of the essence. Working in tandem, Kai and Drake pulled Methuselah and Joso up and whipped them into one another. Joso and Methuselah collided with one another in the center of the ring, both falling down into the lake of razorblades. Drake and Kai put the boots to them and finally, Hans joined them.)
(The assault of Methuselah and Joso continued.)
(Finally, Joso and Methuselah were pulled up, both into a powerbomb position, and by Drake and Kai respectively. Hans headed for the top rope, and the crowd remained silent as Hans took to the skies and nailed the two team captains with a flying clothesline. They landed with a thud and the boots were put to them. Drake tossed Joso on top of Methuselah and Hans crushed them both with a standing moonsault.)
(Then the lights went out.)
Gavin Kirkland: Oh thank Gawd. I don’t even care which team is released from their cell. Joso and Methuselah both need help immediately.
Stew-O: You’re right, Gavin, but unless Joso or Methuselah wake up, the numbers will still belong to Voltage. I can’t fault the fact they took advantage of their numbers and put two very incredible and very capable adversaries down.
(The audience sat on the edge of their seats as the lights flickered between the two pods. For several agonizing seconds, no one really knew what would happen. Finally, the lights stopped. The stadium went dark once again.)
(Then…)
(The spotlight shown on Showdown.)
Gavin Kirkland: THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
(The crowd were back on their feet as the referee standing outside of Showdown’s cell unlocked it and opened the door.)
(Bea Valentine let out a blood curdling scream.)
(Impact was half-way down the ramp when he stopped and looked behind him…)
Stew-O: THAT’S SILAS WORLD! WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY DOING??
Persephone: HARPER LEE CLOCKED BEA VALENTINE IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPIONSHIP!
Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA HILL FOLLOWED UP BY WRAPPING A CHAIN AROUND BEA’S NECK AND THEY’RE CHOKING HER OUT. DONOVAN AND PANDORA ARE GIVING CHASE TO IMPACT!
Stew-O: IMPACT MAKES THE SPLIT DECISION TO SLIDE INTO WAR GAMES AND THE OFFICIAL SLAMS THE DOOR SHUT BEFORE DONOVAN AND PANDORA CAN GET IMPACT! I DON’T THINK PANDORA AND DONOVAN EXPECTED THAT AT ALL!
Persephone: IMPACT IS GREETED BY VOLTAGE BUT DONOVAN AND PANDORA ARE NOW JOINING IN THE MUGGING OF BEA VALENTINE! THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY DOING A NUMBER ON HER BUT HERE COMES SOME OF SHOWDOWN’S LOCKERROOM!
(Kennedy Street was directing traffic as several members of Showdown’s roster, as well as a gaggle of referees, came out. Silas World was pulled off Bea and medical rushed out to check on her.)
Gavin Kirkland: I have no words. No words! I’m all for Silas World but there’s a time and a place! THIS WAS NOT THE TIME! Those bastards of Voltage have taken Impact to his knees and who fucking knows if Bea will be able to make it into the match!
(A split screen showed the action inside the ring and what was going on with Bea Valentine. The shot from Harper’s championship had busted open the back of her head, but she did appear conscious. One of the medics was shining a light in Bea’s eyes but he gravely shook his head.)
(She was concussed and medical helped her to the back.)
(Showdown’s situation was dire. Joso still wasn’t moving; a direct result of the beating he had endured at the hands of Voltage’s opportunistic team. Impact was, more or less, in there alone. Methuselah, his long-time friend and Liquid Swordz tag team partner, wasn’t going to be much help either. He was curled into the fetal position, bloodied and bruised, and found himself barely able to move. Impact was on his own and he had three men he needed to defend himself against.)
(Fight or flight kicked in for the veteran.)
(Impact caught Kai with a low blow, forcing the most inexperienced Elitist in the match to step back. Hans attempted to land a kick to Impact’s face but Impact caught him by the foot, pulled him in, and dispatched of Hans with a low blow as well. Drake backed off, not wanting to suffer the same fate as his teammates, but that gave Impact an opening.)
Gavin Kirkland: It really doesn’t look good for Showdown but I have to trust in Impact. He will figure this out. He has to figure this out :lupe:.
(Luckily for Gavin, you don’t give someone like Impact an opening.)
(Impact greeted an incoming Drake with an elbow to the jaw. Drake shook it off and the two started slugging it out. Impact kneed Drake in the stomach, doubling him over, and followed up with a knee to the face. An Irish whip sent Drake into the corner and a running corner clothesline followed that. Impact kept up the attack with kicks and knees until Drake was forced into a sitting position.)
(Behind Impact, Kai had recovered. He noticed his captain getting stomped on in the corner so he made a dash towards Impact. Impact sensed the attack, whirled around at exactly the right moment, and turned Kai inside out with a massive clothesline. Seeing Impact momentarily distracted, Drake pulled himself up but Impact turned right back around and snapped Drake’s head back with a nasty uppercut. Taking Drake by the hair, Impact started slamming Drake’s face into the turnbuckle as the crowd happily counted.)

(When Impact reached 30, he pulled Drake out of the corner and tossed him right into Hans. Hans had been in the process of coming to make the save but Impact put a stop to that real quick. Drake collided with his long-time rival/temporary partner, and sank to the canvas like an anchor. Impact and Hans locked eyes and Impact saw red.)
Stew-O: IMPACT WASTES NO TIME TEEING OFF ON HANS! HANS TRIES TO DEFEND HIMSELF BUT IMPACT WITH A KNEE AND HE SENDS HANS TO THE ROPES! HANS HALTS HIS MOMENTUM… KICKS IMPACT AND FOLLOWS UP WITH A CLUBBING BLOW TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!
Persephone: IMPACT ISN’T PHASED! HE TAKES HANS BY THE HAIR AND HURLS HIM INTO THE SIDE OF THE CAGE! HANS BOUNCES ON THE ROPES AND FLOPS ON THE GROUND LIKE A FISH, AND IMPACT USES THE ROPES TO HELP HIM PUSH HANS INTO THE SIDE OF THE CAGE!
Gavin Kirkland: HANS’ HEAD IS BEING SQUISHED INTO THE STEEL AND NOW IMPACT WITH KICKS! IMPACT IS KICKING HANS’ HEAD IN RIGHT NOW!
(Another happy count-along ensued with Impact’s kicks.)

Persephone: He might’ve just scrambled Hans’ brains with all that :mjlol:.
Stew-O: Kai’s thrown himself back into the mix and he’s got Impact by the hair!
Gavin Kirkland: HANG ON! KAI JUST FELL TO THE GROUND AND IS CLAWING AT HIS FACE!!!!
Persephone: I THINK IMPACT HAS SALT!
Stew-O: IMPACT’S HAND IS COVERED IN SALT! HE MUST HAVE BROUGHT IT WITH HIM! HE’S REACHING FOR HIS ELBOW PAD AGAIN AND MORE SALT IS POURING OUT! IMPACT ATTACKS KAI AND IS RUBBING SALT IN HIS FACE AND ALL OVER HIS HEAD!
Persephone: LOL! HE’S LITERALLY RUBBING SALT IN KAI’S WOUNDS! That’s FANTASTIC! It’s even better that Kai is bald :mjlol:.
(Kai was in agony as he attempted to roll away from Impact. Unfortunately for him, Impact got him, pulled him up, and spiked him right on his head… in the middle of the razorblades! With Kai down, Impact got an idea. He went to Hans, grabbed him, and spiked him with a DDT right beside Kai. Drake Armstrong was treated exactly the same and was dropped on his head as well. With the three Voltage team members laid out, Impact ran to the ropes.)
Gavin Kirkland: ‘FLIGHT SIGHTS’! A BEAUTIFUL LIONSAULT CONNECTS ON VOLTAGE! DO IT AGAIN IMPACT!

(Impact was going for another when he was tapped on the shoulder.)
Gavin Kirkland: :blessed: CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN! JOSO IS UP!
(Joso extended his hand to Impact, who nodded and shook it. Joso pointed at the three men who had systematically tortured him and looked at Impact.)
Joso: (off-mic) Yo, let me cook.
Impact: (off-mic) The floor is yours.
Stew-O: JOSO PUTS SOME SPACE BETWEEN VOLTAGE AND HIMSELF AND HERE HE COMES WITH A RUNNING SHOOTING STAR PRESS! HE LANDS RIGHT ON TOP OF TEAM VOLTAGE AND THIS CROWD IS COMING UNGLUED!
Persephone: DO IT AGAIN! DO IT AGAIN! I WANNA COUNT!!!
Gavin Kirkland: That’s YOUR brand that’s getting their asses beat…
Persephone: So? I NEVER asked for Temu Methuselah, Mr. Rogers Jr., and some asshole who thinks he’s from the Renaissance Age to represent me!!!!
(Persephone got her wish as Joso decided to give the crowd a reason to count again. He geared for another running shooting star press and he didn’t miss… any of them.)
ONE…

(Impact grinned and stopped Joso from going for number eleven. When questioned why, all Impact had to do was point.)
(He had ARISEN.)
(Methuselah stood and he was a sigh to behold. Dried blood and fresher wounds covered his entire body. Grotesque in appearance at the moment, but eyes full of fire. He glared down at the three men Impact had successfully subdued and shook his head.)
Stew-O: I think things are about to get real ugly now.
(Truer words had never been spoken. Methuselah gave instructions to Joso and Impact, before he grabbed Drake Armstrong and made his way up to the top rope. Drake was limp in Methuselah’s arms, and that simply wouldn’t do for EAW’s Chairman. He cracked Drake right in the forehead with a headbutt busting both of them open.)
(Blood tricked down Drake’s face and he cracked his eyes open. The last few minutes had been a blur. The pain he was in was downright unbearable. He knew that things had taken a turn for the worse as it pertained to his team, but for once, his mind was drawing a blank. It didn’t help that he was currently being sat on his feet on the top rope, and the person that was about to destroy him was the most ruthless of them all.)
Persephone: ‘METH FX’!!! BUTTERFLY SUPLEX FROM THE TOP ROPE ONTO THE RAZORBLADES!
(Methuselah got up and Joso handed him Kai.)
(It doesn’t take a genius to figure out how the rest of this story goes. Joso cleared Drake out of the razorblades and Kai was punished with a ‘Meth FX’ from the top rope as well.)
(Hans was next; handed to his executioner by the man he hated the most. Impact was almost giddy at the sight of Hans Grayson in Methuselah’s destructive arms. He removed Kai from the pile of razorblades and kicked the pile together with his boot. Impact wanted maximum damage done to Hans.)
(Methuselah did not disappoint. Hans’ fate was the same as his teammates, although Impact stomped on his face a few times before squashing his head into the razorblades like one does when they kill a bug.)
Methuselah: (off-mic) Pile them up.
(Joso deposited Drake on top of Hans, and Impact threw Kai on top of Drake. Methuselah looked at the stack of bodies that held three championship opportunities amongst them. Pure hatred crossed his face.)
Methuselah: (off-mic) Matthieu’s championship picture is about to be destroyed.
(Methuselah pushed past Impact and Joso, who were content to just watch. Joso knew that sooner or later Methuselah would need to be dealt with, but Voltage’s three-headed dragon was the bigger threat at the moment. The audience gasped as Methuselah started scaling the ropes, once again heading to the top.)
Persephone: Um, guys? What the fuck is Granddad doing?
(Methuselah didn’t stop at the top rope. He headed for the top of the cage, climbing up and perching himself on the very top. The cage was open air this year, and Methuselah looked up into the stadium lights. He closed his eyes and didn’t bother to look behind him. He was that sure of himself.)
Gavin Kirkland: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! ‘NORTH STAR’ FROM THE TOP OF THE FUCKING CAGE!
Stew-O: METHUSELAH LANDS HIS SHOOTING STAR PRESS RIGHT ON TOP OF THE BODY PILE!!!!
(But Methuselah wasn’t content with that. He pointed at the black bags Voltage had brought into the match right as the lights went out. There was no suspense to be had this time. Only two men were left at this point.)
(The spotlight flickered between all three cells, just because it was the routine. Every time it landed on Dynasty’s BRAE could be seen jumping around and practically foaming at the mouth.)
(The same could not be said for Drake King. He’d spent the entire time in that holding cell leaned back against the bars with his arms folded across his chest. Standing right behind him, on the outside of the cell, was the mesmerizing Sister Annabelle with her piercing, yet cold blue eyes.)
(Inside the ring, Impact had pulled a bottle of lighter fluid out of one bag. He was dousing Voltage with it as the lights went out again. The spotlight shone brightly on the Dynasty cell and the referee standing outside of it quickly unlocked it.)
Stew-O: HERE COMES DYNASTY! ONCE BRAE AND DRAKE MAKE IT INSIDE WAR GAMES OFFICIALLY BEGINS!!!
(Joso had a box of matches in his hands and lit one as BRAE sprinted down the ramp.)
(Drake King did not rush out of the cell. In fact he took his time leaving it as his teammate hit the ring and started going nuts.)
Persephone: OH COME ON! THE INTERWIRE CHAMPION JUST GRABBED JOSO FROM BEHIND AND DROPPED HIM WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! WE WERE ABOUT TO SEE THREE MEN LITERALLY GET SET ON FIRE!
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT LOOKS TO CUT BRAE OFF BUT BRAE CRACKS HIM IN THE NOSE WITH A HEADBUTT, GOES BEHIND IMPACT, AND THROWS HIM ACROSS THE RING WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!
Stew-O: BRAE HAS BEEN WAITING ALL NIGHT FOR THIS! HE DEADLIFTS KAI UP AND HITS HIM WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! DRAKE ARMSTRONG IS NEXT! THIS TIME BRAE DOES A RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX AND VOLTAGE’S CAPTAIN CRASHES INTO THE ROPES!
Persephone: BRAE IS SCREAMING AND BEATING ON HIS CHEST AND NOW HE’S JUST STOMPING AWAY ON HANS JUST BECAUSE! IS THIS GUY ON COCAINE??
Stew-O: NAH! THAT’S JUST OUR INTERWIRE CHAMPION :blessed:!!!! HANS IS PULLED UP AND BRAE NAILS HIM WITH RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX THAT SENDS ‘THE FIREHEART’ THROUGH THE ROPES AND INTO THE SECOND RING!!!
Gavin Kirkland: METHUSELAH GRABS BRAE FROM BEHIND AND BRAE BLINDLY SWINGS!
Methuselah: (off-mic) :whoa:!!!
BRAE: (off-mic) :yikes:
(The two members of team Dynasty stared at one another as the crowd finally settled down. The tension between Methuselah, Drake King, and BRAE had been building for weeks, especially when it came to Meth and Drake. They had a sordid history and BRAE had more or less been the man caught in the middle of that.)
(That tension is why Drake King still had not entered the cage. He was standing just outside of it now, with Sister Annabelle behind him. He had no desire to get in there and work with the one man he hated the most when it came to this business. Methuselah was a thorn in Drake King’s side, and everyone knew it. Annabelle looked at Drake and put a hand on his arm.)
Sister Annabelle: (off-mic) For this to end, it first has to begin. Why do you hesitate?
(Drake looked back at her and a silent conversation passed between the two of them. Annabelle had been behind the scenes for years and knew Drake King better than anyone. They had reached the point where they could communicate with their eyes and simple gestures, then after a moment, Annabelle bowed her head. Drake did as well, and the two engaged in a silent prayer with Drake praying to himself for he was God, and Annabelle was God’s right hand.)
(The two raised their heads and Drake spied an object of peculiar interest to him. Annabelle followed his gaze and shook her head.)
Sister Annabelle: (off-mic) You don’t need that.
(The look on his face told her that he did. Annabelle wanted to say something but she decided against it. Drake was already walking into a stressful situation, one he would clearly be able to navigate having done it before, but if he wanted something inside the cage with him, she decided against objecting.)
(Drake reached down and grabbed the small pair of pliers that Methuselah had used at the beginning of the match on Joso. He tucked them into his boot and looked inside the cage. Blood and bodies were everywhere, but what he paid attention to was his two teammates. BRAE had cleaned house upon entry, but Methuselah had a murderous look on his face. He gestured for Drake to get inside.)
(Drake didn’t like that at all.)
Persephone: Why is this guy such a pretentious asshole?
Stew-O: :mjlol: He was on your brand for years. You know the answer to that.
(Drake walked towards the timekeeper’s area and pulled Bella Braxton out of her chair. He dragged it to the entrance of the cage…)
(And sat down.)
(Ankle over knee, Drake sat back and placed his hands behind his head.)
(He yawned.)
(Methuselah was incensed at this point.)
(Joso and Impact were back up and they took note of what was going on between the Dynasty team. They looked at one another and nodded.)
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT AND JOSO LAUNCH THEMSELVES AT BRAE AND METHUSELAH! BOTH WERE CAUGHT OFF GUARD BUT BRAE’S THE FRESHEST COMPETITOR IN THE MATCH! FOREARM AFTER FOREARM CONNECTS ON JOSO AND BRAE ABSOLUTELY DESTROYS HIM WITH A HEADBUTT! HE CONTINUES TO BEAT ON JOSO WHILE THE LIQUID SWORDZ ARE FACING OFF!!!
(Impact versus Methuselah was a match-up the crowd had been waiting for. No bad blood between the two, but a competitive desire that overrode everything else. They started hammering away on one another, throwing caution to the wind. They battled back and forth, pushing one another against the ropes, before it was Methuselah who out-muscled Impact and caught his hands around his best friend’s throat.)
(Impact knew better than to panic in a situation like this. He raked his hand down Methuselah’s face and added insult to injury with a thumb to the eye. Methuselah took a step back, and Impact jumped in the air! Methuselah side-stepped the ‘Evisceration’ attempt and yelled at Impact to get up.)
(As soon as Impact got his feet, Methuselah went for a ‘Spear’. Impact evaded it and the momentum Methuselah had sent him right through the ropes and into the second ring…)
Persephone: JUMPING KNEE STRIKE FROM HANS KNOCKS PAW-PAW OUT OF THE AIR! I THOUGHT HANS WAS DEAD LOL!!!!
Stew-O: HANS THROWS METHUSELAH INTO THE CORNER AND RUNS RIGHT AT HIM! RUNNING JUMPING KNEE STRIKES METHUSELAH IN THE FACE AND HANS GRABS HIM, RUNS TO THE CENTER OF THE RING AND PLANTS HIM WITH A BULLDOG!
Gavin Kirkland: DRAKE ARMSTRONG AND KAI RABEAUX ARE ATTACKING JOSO AND BRAE!!!! JOSO IS GRABBED BY ARMSTRONG AND LIFTED UP INTO AN ELECTRIC CHAIR! ARMSTRONG BRINGS JOSO CRASHING TO THE MAT WITH A FACEBUSTER WHILE KAI LOOKS TO GET THE BETTER OF BRAE!
Persephone: BRAE’S NOT INTERESTED IN LETTING A ROOKIE TAKE HIM TO TASK! HE HEADBUTTS KAI AND TURNS AROUND, HEADBUTTING DRAKE! HE THROWS DRAKE INTO THE CORNER AND STARTS HAMMERING AWAY ON KAI! KAI FIGHTS BACK AND HERE COMES HANS TO SAVE THE DAY! THEY DOUBLE TEAM BRAE AND NOW OUR FAUX KING IS BACK INTO THE MIX! THEY ARE MUGGING BRAE AND BEATING HIM DOWN!
Stew-O: DRAKE KING NEEDS TO GET HIS ASS INTO THE RING.
(A camera shot is shown of Drake King, who is still casually sitting in his chair and watching all of this unfold.)
(The EAW Hall of Famer seemed like he didn’t have a care in the world.)
Gavin Kirkland: THE THREE-ON-ONE BEATDOWN DOESN’T SEEM TO BE WEARING DOWN BRAE! IN FACT, I THINK THE MORE HE GETS HIT THE STRONGER HE GETS! THE CROWD IS CHANTING HIS NAME AND BRAE LETS OUT A BATTLE CRY! HE THROWS A RIGHT HAND AT ARMSTRONG AND FOLLOWS UP WITH A PALM STRIKE TO KAI! HANS IS TURNED INSIDE OUT WITH A NASTY LARIAT AND DRAKE GETS LAID OUT WITH A HEADBUTT! KAI FLIES AT BRAE BUT BRAE KNOCKS HIM DOWN WITH A LARIAT! BRAE HAS TAKEN DOWN VOLTAGE AND NOW IMPACT IS IN THE MIX!!!!
Persephone: BRAE BATTERS IMPACT WITH FOREARMS AND STRIKES, BEFORE SENDING HIM INTO THE ROPES!
Stew-O: ‘MORRIGAN’!!! THE BROGUE KICK TAKES OUT IMPACT!
Gavin Kirkland: JOSO TURNS BRAE AROUND BUT BRAE WITH A HEADBUTT! ‘MORRIGAN’!!! JOSO IS DOWN! HERE COMES HANS!!! THERE’S ANOTHER FUCKING ‘MORRIGAN’! HANS IS DOWN!
(Armstrong and Kai recover at the same time and both see that BRAE is standing in the center of the ring, surrounded by bodies. They both get to their feet, with Drake moving to the left and Kai moving to the right.)
Persephone: :lupe: BRAE IS TRAPPED BETWEEN DRAKE AND KAI BUT THIS CRAZY FUCK DOESN’T EVEN CARE! HE SNARLS AT BOTH OF THEM AND GOES FOR KAI! DRAKE WITH A FOREARM TO THE BACK TO THE HEAD BUT LOOK!!! IT DIDN’T EVEN PHASE BRAE! HE BUSTS DRAKE’S NOSE OPEN WITH A HEADBUTT AND TAKES KAI DOWN WITH ‘MORRIGAN’!!!
Stew-O: BRAE SEES DRAKE COMING RIGHT AT HIM AND ONCE AGAIN HE CONNECTS WITH ‘MORRIGAN’!!! BRAE JUST TOOK EVERY SINGLE OPPONENT OF DYNASTY’S OUT OF THIS MATCH WITH HIS BROGUE KICK!
Gavin Kirkland: That was fucking insane! BRAE is the only man standing but Methuselah has seen everything unfold! He’s been sitting in that corner the entire time watching BRAE do Gawd’s work. Absolutely unbelievable what the Interwire Champion just pulled off.
(It was at that moment, Drake King stood up from his chair. He folded it up, tucked it under his arm, and finally made his way into the steel cage.)
(If looks could kill, BRAE would have put Drake six feet under, and that didn’t even scratch the surface of the anger that was bubbling up inside of Methuselah. The three members of team Dynasty met one another around the entrance, but it wasn’t like Drake was going to do any talking.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… ALL COMPETITORS ARE INSIDE THE RING! LET W-
(The lights cut at that moment, as did Bella Braxton’s microphone.)
Stew-O: Ummmmm….
(A single white spotlight cut on, illuminating the center of the stage. A familiar face to EAW stepped into it and cleared his throat.)
(It was Bea Valentine’s beloved butler, Cornelius.)
Persephone: Oh for fuck’s sake. Is he about to take her place?? I thought Uggo World killed her earlier??
Gavin Kirkland: I have no idea what the hell is going on.
Cornelius: ESTEEMED LADIES AND MOST REVERED GENTLEMEN! IT IS MY PLEASURE… MY HONOR… TO INTRODUCE YOU ALL TO THE GREATEST STAR IN THE WORLD TODAY… IN HER MOST CHALLENGING AND CONTROVERSIAL ROLE TO DATE! PLEASE WELCOME… PHOEBE VERONICA VALENTINE AS…
(An actual drum roll blasted out of the sound system, because it was all about the drama and suspense at this point!)
Cornelius: THE EVER SO DEADLY… LIZZIE BORDEN!!!!
(The stadium was transformed into the black and white of old Hollywood. Everything going on with Team Dynasty had come to a halt. Everyone’s eyes were glued to the stage as a wounded, clearly concussed, and costumed Bea Valentine, complete with blood soaked bandages wrapped around her head, made her way out as if the ramp was her own red carpet.)
(And yes, she was fully in character. She clutched an axe in her right hand as she glared down at her War Games opponents.)
Persephone: …. you have got to be kidding me.
Stew-O: I… well…
Gavin Kirkland: Ahem. I need to adjust myself.
(Bea slowly made her way to the ring, clearly not in her right mind, but to her, she was throwing herself head first into her biggest role to date. Lizzie Borden was an American icon, having murdered her own parents and then was acquitted of said crime. She had been sensationalized in pop culture and any true crime aficionado knew the case very well.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic and staring directly into the camera with her glassy eyes) Lizzie Borden took an axe… and gave her mother forty whacks.
(Bea trailed her finger down the sharpened axe and watched the blood rise to the surface of the broken skin. A childish giggle escaped her smeared red lips and she stopped, closing her eyes.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic and looking up at the night sky) When she saw what she had done, she gave her father forty-one…
(Bea looked back into the camera and there was a ghost of a smile on her face.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic) Andrew Borden is now dead. Lizzie hit him in the head. Up in Heaven he will sing…
(Bea’s faint smile turned cruel. She looked away from the camera and pointed at the men in the ring with her axe. She puffed out her chest, squared her shoulders, and took a deep breath before she screamed the final line of the morbid nursery rhyme.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic) FROM THE GALLOWS… SHE. WILL. SWING!
Stew-O: THE FORMER UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION IS ON HER WAY TO THE RING! SHE SLIDES INSIDE AND THE DOOR SLAMS SHUT BEHIND HER! SHE TWIRLS AROUND IN A CIRCLE, WILDLY SWINGING THE AXE, AND DYNASTY IS GETTING THE HELL OUT OF HER WAY!!!!
(The lights went off once again but a spotlight blinded everyone inside the ring besides the woman it was shining on. Bea held her axe high in the air.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic) AND NOW WAR GAMES SHALL OFFICIALLY COMMENCE!!!!
Persephone: I bet this bitch and Machina have the wildest and weirdest sex ever.
Gavin Kirkland: That’s the last thing I need to think about right now :mjlol:.
(The lights returned and things were no longer in black and white. Everything was bright and in vivid color, and it looked like a massacre had happened inside the cage. During all the theatrics, Voltage had managed to regroup in one corner of the ring, while Joso and Impact had scooted into the second ring. Dynasty didn’t look too happy at the turn of events, because all the time that had been wasted had undone the damage BRAE had caused.)
(For some reason, ‘Lizzie Borden’ settled her eyes on Hans. She pointed the axe at him and made her way to the Voltage corner.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic) Mother! Mother is that you?
Kai Rabeaux: (off-mic) Oh nah.
(Bea looked down at Hans and raised the axe above her head.)
Bea Valentine: I shall give you forty whacks!!!
Hans Grayson: (off-mic) I’M NOT YOUR MOTHER, CRAZY!
Persephone: LMFAO…. I CAN NOT!
Stew-O: BEA CRASHES THE AXE DOWN ON HANS BUT HE THROWS HIS ARMS UP TO PROTECT HIMSELF! DRAKE AND KAI ARE FROZEN IN THE MOMENT BUT BEA SWINGS THE AXE AT THEM! DRAKE AND KAI SCRAMBLE OUT OF THE WAY AS IT STRIKES THE MAT AND GETS STUCK!
Gavin Kirkland: BEA PULLS THE AXE OUT AND TURNS AROUND! METHUSELAH IS IN FRONT OF HER AND SHE’S FUCKING SMILING! SHE’S LOST IT, GUYS! BEA VALENTINE HAS LOST IT!
Bea Valentine: (off-mic) Father! You shall be joining Mother now… IN HELL!!!!
Persephone: LMAOOOOOO… I CAN’T BREATHE!!!!
Stew-O: BEA SWINGS THE AXE AT METHUSELAH AND SHE ACTUALLY CLIPS HIM IN THE EAR! BLOOD IS GUSHING FROM HIS EAR AND BEA SWINGS AGAIN! DRAKE KING BLASTS HER IN THE SIDE OF THE FACE WITH A RUNNING BIG BOOT AND BRAE COMES UP FROM BEHIND AND DESTROYS BEA WITH ‘MORRIGAN’!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: THOSE BASTARDS ARE GRABBING BEA UP AND HOLDING HER IN PLACE! DRAKE KING IS BACKING UP AND LOOKING FOR ‘THE BOOK OF DRISTIANITY’!!!
Persephone: JOSO AND IMPACT FROM BEHIND! THEY TAKE DOWN DRAKE KING! THAT LAZY FUCK HASN’T DONE ANYTHING TONIGHT SO IT’S NO SURPRISE HE’S RIGHT BACK UP TO HIS FEET! DRAKE KING HAMMERS AWAY ON JOSO AND IMPACT, FENDING THEM BOTH OFF!!!
Stew-O: DRAKE DRIVES HIS KNEE INTO JOSO, GRABS HIS HAIR, AND THROWS HIM INTO THE CORNER! HE DOES THE SAME WITH IMPACT, WHO LANDS IN FRONT OF JOSO, AND DRAKE KING SPRINTS FORWARD!
Gavin Kirkland: RUNNING SINGLE LEG DROP KICK CONNECTS ON BOTH AND DRAKE PULLS UP IMPACT… SCOOPS HIM UP AND PLANTS HIM WITH A SIT-OUT POWERBOMB!
Persephone: DRAKE ARMSTRONG GETS THE BETTER DRAKE IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH THE LEADPIPE! ARMSTRONG TOSSES THE PIPE DOWN AND PUTS THE BOOTS TO DRAKE! BRAE AND METHUSELAH ARE TIED UP WITH KAI AND MOTHER!
Stew-O: Did you just refer to Hans as ‘Mother’???
Persephone: :mjgrin:
Gavin Kirkland: DRAKE ONE PULLS UP DRAKE TWO AND THEY SLUGGING IT OUT! I DON’T KNOW HOW TO CALL THIS!!!
Persephone: IT’S DRAKE ON DRAKE CRIME :blessed:!!!! LET’S GET RID OF THEM BOTH!!!!
Stew-O: ARMSTRONG HAS KING IN HIS CLUTCHES BUT KING IS THE FRESHER MAN! KING TAKES ARMSTRONG AND BULLIES HIM INTO THE CORNER AND STARTS STOMPING AWAY! DRAKE KING HAS FORCED DRAKE ARMSTRONG INTO A SITTING POSITION AND HE’S REMOVED THE PLIERS FROM HIS BOOT!
Gavin Kirkland: ARMSTRONG THROWS HIS HAND UP TO PROTECT HIMSELF RIGHT AS KING TRIES TO STAB HIM IN THE EYE! DRAKE ARMSTRONG AND DRAKE KING ARE FIGHTING OVER THE PLIERS BUT BEA VALENTINE IS BACK UP!
Persephone: THERE’S EVEN MORE BLOOD COMING FROM HER HEAD NOW BUT SOMEHOW NO ONE DECIDED TO HIDE THE AXE FROM THIS BITCH! SHE’S GOT HER HANDS ON IT AGAIN AND SHE SLAMS IT INTO BRAE’S BACK!
(The audience gasped as the mighty BRAE dropped to his knees. His eyes went wide and he gasped for breath, unable to fully process the fact he had just been struck with an axe.)
(Bea’s bottom lip started to tremble.)
Bea Valentine: (off-mic) Oh dear heavens! You’re not Father!
(Unaware of the predator that is standing behind her, Bea pulled the axe out of BRAE’s back. She felt a tap on her shoulder and as she turned around, she clutched her proverbial pearls.)
Methuselah: (off-mic) I’m your daddy, bitch. Tell the Machine I said hello.
Stew-O: METHUSELAH SPEARED BEA OUT OF HER BOOTS AND HE DROPS ON TOP OF HER FOR THE COVER!
OOONNNEEE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: KAI, HANS, IMPACT, AND JOSO JUST DOVE ON TOP OF METHUSELAH TO MAKE THE SAVE!
(A guttural scream filled the air at that very moment.)
(Drake King stepped back from Drake Armstrong, who was down on the mat. King smirked as the younger Drake pulled those damn pliers from his left eye and started to wither around in pain. Kai and Hans jumped up and went to defend their captain, but Drake King was ready.)
(He had the chair he brought to the ring and caught an incoming Kai in the stomach. Hans was struck across the head, and Kai was dropped to his knees thanks to a shot to the back. Hans attempted to stand, but Drake King smashed him over the head again, bending the chair in half. Kai managed to avoid the next strike and he temporarily stopped Drake King with a shoulder tackle.)
(Kai wrestled the chair away from Drake and struck him in the back with it, but Drake, again, was the fresher competitor. He overpowered Kai, took the chair back, and slammed him over the head with it.)
(While all that was going on, the Liquid Swordz were battling one another again, and Joso was working on getting Bea up and back into the match. BRAE had crawled to the corner to try and compose himself considering he took an actual axe to the back.)
(War Games had broken down into a survival of the fittest and no one could look away from anything that was happening inside the rings. The brawl between the Liquid Swordz had spilled into the second ring.)
(Drake King had not only stopped Hans and Kai with the chair, but both men had taken an ‘Ascension’ each. Drake’s version of the Pedigree had taken out two-thirds of Voltage, while the captain was temporarily blind in one eye. Looking towards BRAE, Drake motioned towards Bea and Joso.)
(BRAE summoned all he had inside of him and along with his Dynasty teammate, they met Joso and Bea head-on. Things quickly escalated between the four with the action spilling into the second ring as well. Between the six, at least Joso, Methuselah, and Impact were running on fumes. Bea Valentine clearly had a massive head injury and once her adrenaline wore off, there’s no telling the shape she would be left in. BRAE’s movement had been hindered, which was a direct result of the injury Bea had given him. Drake King was the only competitor still feeling himself at the moment.)
(So he decided to take control of the match.)
(While Drake King ripped through his enemies inside of the second ring, Team Voltage had started to stir inside of the first one. Things had started off very well for the three cash-in holders, but once their numbers advantage had been taken away, things had fallen apart. It wasn’t due to lack of leadership or preparation. Drake Armstrong, Hans Grayson, and Kai Rabeaux had simply never been in this type of match before. Drake had competed in Brand Warfare twice before but War Games was so very different from that. Kai had never experienced anything of this magnitude before, period. At times he had seemed overwhelmed. Methuselah had marked him for destruction early on and Kai had suffered as a result. Hans had not fared any better, either. For as ready as he felt to stand at the top of EAW, he had to admit that War Games had proven to be far more difficult of a challenge than he’d thought.)
(Voltage’s star-studded team, the future of EAW, were in danger of having this win taken away from them.)
(Drake was sitting up in the corner and holding his eye. He couldn’t see out of it and he certainly didn’t know just how bad the damage was at the moment. He knew he had to get to the bags Hans and Kai brought to the ring. He knew that if Voltage could get their hands on those bags, this match would be over rather quickly.)
(Hans and Kai looked at one another and it was Kai who swallowed hard. His own adrenaline had started to wear off and his body felt like it was going to fail him. Kai knew the plan for the end. The three of them had gone through every single possible scenario including the one they were currently in. The black bags contained what they needed in order to secure the win, and that’s when Kai decided to step up.)
Kai Rabeaux: (off-mic) I’ll go in. You two go for the bags.
Drake Armstrong: (off-mic) It might be better if I take this. I only have one eye.
Kai Rabeaux: (off-mic) They wanna make an example out of me anyway. Just make sure what I’m about to do isn’t for nothing.
Hans Grayson: (off-mic) It won’t be.
(Drake nodded in agreement with Hans’ words.)
(Kai pushed himself up and stood on shaky feet. Drake King was in the process of setting Bea up for ‘The Book of Dristianity’. Methuselah had just Speared both Joso and Impact, putting them out of the match for the time being, and had crawled over to Joso to make the pin.)
Persephone: ‘CRYSTAL KINGDOM CUTTER’ TAKES OUT DRAKE KING BEFORE HE COULD PUNT BEA IN HER SHATTERED SKULL!
Stew-O: METHUSELAH FORGETS ABOUT THE COVER AND HE GOES RIGHT FOR KAI! METHUSELAH GOES FOR A SPEAR BUT KAI MOVES AND METHUSELAH LANDS SHOULDER FIRST INTO THE RINGPOST!
Gavin Kirkland: KAI ROLLS HIM UP FROM BEHIND BUT METHUSELAH IS ALREADY KICKING OUT AND GETTING BACK UP! KAI HOOKS HIM BUT METHUSELAH BLOCKS AND SMASHES HIM IN THE SKULL WITH A BARRAGE OF ELBOWS. KAI ATTEMPTS TO FEND HIM OFF BUT DRAKE KING IS BACK UP AND HE IS NOT HAPPY!
Persephone: DRAKE SHOVES METHUSELAH AWAY FROM KAI AND STARTS BEATING ON HIM! METHUSELAH IS NOT THRILLED AND HE GRABS DRAKE BY THE HAIR AND PULLS HIM OFF KAI!
(Meanwhile, BRAE was on his knees, breathing heavily.)
(A few minutes ago, before Methuselah had taken out Impact and Joso, BRAE had been on the receiving end of a double team move from Showdown. Impact had hit ‘Evisceration’ on BRAE while Joso had followed it up with a Springboard 450 Splash. The only thing that had stopped Impact and Joso from covering BRAE had been Methuselah’s ‘Spear’.)
(But now that BRAE had collected himself, he was furious to see Methuselah screaming at Drake, and Drake maintaining his irritating vow of silence. He forced himself up and that was a chore at this point. He hadn’t been the same since Bea had taken the axe to his back. He hobbled his way towards them and pushed both men, getting their attention.)
BRAE: (off-mic) STOP BLOODY FIGHTIN’! FINISH THE MATCH!
Methuselah: (off-mic) Excuse me?
BRAE: (off-mic) All this is doing is giving the other teams a chance to recover. Let’s finish this and deal with whatever else after the fact.
(Methuselah did not like being told what to do, but he reluctantly swallowed his pride and conceded the point. The match was in hand. The win was theirs.)
(Until it wasn’t.)
(Drake Armstrong and Hans had gotten to the bags. Hans had pulled something out of the first one, while Drake was clutching an object he’d personally placed in the second one himself.)
(Kai saw his teammates had done their jobs and he stood up, attacking BRAE from behind. It was a suicide mission, and Team Dynasty put their differences aside to punish Mr. 24/7. Methuselah’s fist slammed into Kai’s face, while BRAE punched him repeatedly in the kidney area. Kai felt himself being lifted up and thrown, landing in the arms of Drake King, and then he ate another ‘Ascension’. Kai refused to stay down in that moment, knowing his sacrifice was vital to the cause. He pushed himself up on all fours and that was exactly what Drake King had been hoping for.)
Stew-O: ‘JUDGMENT DAY’! KAI RABEAUX IS TAKEN OUT WITH THE CURB STOMP AND DRAKE GOES FOR THE COVER!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEE-
Gavin Kirkland: MODIFIED ‘HALBERD FROM HELL’!!! A SICK, RARE, RUNNING SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK FROM DRAKE ARMSTRONG TO METHUSELAH! METHUSELAH FALLS ON TOP OF KING!
Persephone: ‘BURNING SHOT PILLAR’!!! SPRINGBOARD 450 INTO A LARIAT!!! HANS GRAYSON TAKES OUT BRAE AND BRAE IS DOWN ON TOP OF HIS TEAMMATES!!!!
Stew-O: HANS PULLS BRAE DOWN AND COVERS HIM!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEE-
Gavin Kirkland: BEA VALENTINE BREAKS UP THE COVER! DRAKE ARMSTRONG PULLS HER OFF HANS AND SENDS HER ACROSS THE RING! SHE EATS A BIG BOOT ON THE REBOUND AND HANS PULLS HER UP! BEA IS TAKEN DOWN WITH ‘IMPERIAL FLAME’! BEA SUCCOMBS TO THE UNPRETTIER BUT HANS DOESN’T GO FOR THE COVER!
Persephone: THAT’S BECAUSE JOSO AND IMPACT ARE BACK UP, BUT DRAKE ARMSTRONG ISN’T LETTING THEM BACK INTO THIS MATCH! HE’S BATTLING BOTH MEN AND HANS IS IN TO HELP! THEY WORK IN TANDEM TO TAKE DOWN JOSO AND IMPACT, BUT NOW IT’S TEAM DYNASTY THAT THEY HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT!
Stew-O: ALL THREE MEN ARE BACK UP AND THEY’RE HEADING TOWARDS DRAKE AND HANS! KAI IS ALSO TRYING TO STAND UP! BRAE CATCHES THE MOVEMENT AND HE GOES BACK TO KAI! HE STOMPS HIM DOWN WHILE DRAKE KING AND METHUSELAH MAKE THEIR MOVE!
Gavin Kirkland: HANS IS RIPPING THE LID OFF WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SMALL CYLINDER OF SOMETHING AND HE FLINGS THE CONTENTS AT THEM!!!
(The liquid splattered across Drake King and Methuselah and both men instantly went down. Drake’s vow of silence was broken only by his shrieks and the noises that came from Methuselah might as well have been from a dying animal. Both men were clawing at their skin and ripping at it, and on the outside of the ring, Sister Annabelle had gone pale.)
Sister Annabelle: (off-mic) Acid.
Persephone: DID SHE JUST SAY ACID????
Stew-O: BRAE IS SHOCKED AT WHAT JUST HAPPENED BUT HE NEEDS TO TURN AR-
Gavin Kirkland: ‘HALBERD FROM HELL’!!!
Persephone: (at the same time as Gavin) ‘BURNING SHOT LARIAT’!!!!
Stew-O: BRAE JUST GOT DESTROYED WITH BOTH FINISHERS AT THE SAME TIME AND HE IS DONE! SHIT! I THINK TEAM DYNASTY IS DONE! KAI IS CRAWLING OVER ONTO BRAE AND HE’S GOT THE COVER!!! THIS IS IT! VOLTAGE HAS WON!!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: ALL OF SHOWDOWN JUST BROKE UP THE COVER! HANS AND DRAKE ARE STOMPING ON ALL THREE OF THEM! KAI IS TRYING TO GET UP BUT HE ROLLS OFF OF BRAE AND COLLAPSES ON THE MAT! HANS CATCHES BEA IN THE TEMPLE WITH A FLURRY OF RIGHT HANDS AND THE EMPRESS OF ELITE IS DOWN! HANS STOMPS AWAY AT HER SKULL AND IMPACT COMES FOR HIM!
Persephone: HANS IS READY FOR IT! ‘IMPERIAL FLAME’! IMPACT EATS HANS’ FINISHER AND GRABS JOSO OFF DRAKE! HANS SPIKES JOSO WITH A DDT AND DRAKE IS RUSHING FOR THE OBJECT HE BROUGHT OUT OF THE BAG!
(Drake snatched the small object up and held it up.)
Stew-O: IT’S A GRENADE! THAT SONOFABITCH HAS AN ACTUAL GRENADE!!!
Persephone: YES! YES! YES! IT’S HAPPENING! SOMEONE IS FINALLY GOING TO DIE!
Gavin Kirkland: I KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP WHEN DRAKE ARMSTRONG SPOKE OPENLY ABOUT TALKING WITH HIS FATHER THIS WEEK! ALDRICH ARMSTRONG DEALS WITH WEAPONS AND WAR, AND IF THAT REALLY WAS ACID HANS THREW AT DRAKE KING AND METHUSELAH, THEN I BET THAT CAME FROM HIS DAMN MOTHER, KATIYA ARMSTRONG! SHE’S IN PHARMACEUTICALS AND THAT’S THE ONLY WAY TEAM VOLTAGE COULD HAVE GOTTEN THEIR HANDS ON PURE, ILLEGAL ACID!
(Drake wasted no time pulling the pin on the special made grenade he had curated specifically for this moment thanks to his family’s connections and business dealings. He hurled it directly at Bea Valentine, knowing exactly what would happen.)
Stew-O: JOSO THROWS HIMSELF IN FRONT OF THE GRENADE! HE JUST SAVED BEA VALENTINE’S CAREER! HELL, MAYBE HER LIFE! IT EXPLODES WITH JOSO ON TOP OF IT!
Persephone: KAI HAS COME BACK TO LIFE AND MAKES HIS LAST STAND! A SHOCKED BEA VALENTINE IS OBLITERATED WITH ‘BLADE OF BABYLON’! THE FRONT-FACING HIDDEN BLADE ELBOW TAKES OUT BEA FOR GOOD!
Gavin Kirkland: HANS HAS ONE LAST MOVE LEFT FOR IMPACT AS HE CUTS HIM OFF WITH AN ELBOW! ‘HIGH HEAT’! JUMPING SOMERSAULT INTO THE UNPRETTIER DISPOSES OF IMPACT :noah:!!!!
Stew-O: DRAKE ARMSTRONG KICKS THE UNCONSCIOUS JOSO ONTO HIS BACK AND GOES FOR THE WIN!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… HERE ARE THE WINNERS OF WAR GAMES 2025… THE 24/7 CONTRACT HOLDER KAI RABEAUX… MR. CASH IN THE VAULT HANS GRAYSON… THE REIGNING KING OF ELITE DRAKE ARMSTRONG… TEAM VOLTAGE!
(‘Pride and Arrogance’ started to play as the cage door was opened. A dozen or so medics and officials slid into the ring to check on every single competitor that was currently down. Joso, who had fallen on a grenade, was the priority. Drake rolled off him and scooted out of the way, so the medics could attend to the former World Heavyweight Champion. It took Armstrong a moment to realize what had happened, but then his theme song filled his ears.)
(He’d won.)
(Team Voltage had done exactly what they had promised to do. Drake balled his hands up into fists and tried to quell the urge to celebrate. He was used to remaining stoic even when things had undoubtedly gone his way. As much as he wanted to jump up and down, he didn’t, but he didn’t bother stopping the pure, genuine smile that crossed his face. He had actually done it.)
(Even more medics were down beside Drake King and Methuselah. Sister Annabelle had gotten into the ring and was down beside Drake. The medics confirmed that the burns and blisters on Drake and Methuselah were from acid, and they were quickly sedated so they didn’t have to deal with the pain.)
(Hans was sitting next to Impact, trying to catch his breath. Impact had only managed to turn on his side and Hans looked over at him. There would never be any respect between the two men, and if nothing else, the entire build-up to War Games had proven that. But Hans was firmly in the driver’s seat when it came to his rivalry with Impact and right now, that was enough for him. He patted Impact’s shoulder and pushed up to his feet.)
(Bea Valentine was woken up by a medic, but she clearly had no idea where she was at. Despite being concussed by Silas World, she had refused to let her team down. Bea had fought bravely and had given the fans in Washington D.C. a moment they would never forget. Michael Machina, the brand new World Heavyweight Champion and Bea’s beloved boyfriend, had made his way into the ring and was cradling her in his arms. His face was a mix of concern and pure, unadulterated pride. The woman he loved was someone who never ceased to amaze him.)
(Hans had made his way over to Kai and had extended his hand. Kai, who had taken quite the beating had turned out to be Voltage’s MVP in the end. His selflessness in throwing himself in front of the firing squad had been noticed by everyone in attendance and as Hans helped him up, the EAW newcomer was given a round of applause. It didn’t matter that they didn’t like Kai. He was a pretty arrogant person, but if anyone had doubted his toughness and his grit before tonight? Those doubts had been silenced.)
(BRAE, tough and resilient BRAE, refused to be helped. He wanted to leave this match under his own power, and that is exactly what he did. He couldn’t stand; didn’t even try. He simply crawled to what was now the exit and pulled himself out. He landed on the ground, rolled onto his back, and stared up at the sky. He had a lot of thoughts on what had gone down, but those would be saved and tucked away for now. After a moment, BRAE got up. It took him time but eventually he started to walk. As BRAE limped away from War Games, he didn’t bother looking back.)
(Two paramedics and a stretcher passed BRAE as he left. Joso was inside the ring but he wouldn’t be getting up tonight. The stretcher was for him and all the fans were holding their breath. Joso had taken on the role of captain and done his absolute best with it. Things hadn’t worked out for him or Showdown, and he had ended up paying the ultimate price. Risk was always involved in matches like these and Joso had done what any noble captain would have done. He had taken the hit to protect his team. As he was loaded onto the stretcher, the fans started to clap. Some of them even wiped a few tears from their eyes. Joso’s eyes were open and he felt the love from the crowd. It took what strength he had left but he raised his hands and gave two thumbs up to the fans.)
(The cameras cut to the broadcast booth where Stew-O, Gavin Kirkland, and even Persephone were standing up and clapping. The match they had just witnessed was one of one and something no one would ever forget. It had lived up to the hype, the billing, and everything else. Eight men and one brave woman had risked everything for their brands and for six of them it had all been for nought.)
(Hans and Kai had joined their captain in the center of the ring. The three of them looked at one another and finally, all three felt like they could breathe. Despite their individual successes, War Games hit them all a little differently. It was bigger than King of Elite. It was bigger than Cash in the Vault. It was bigger than the 24/7 Battle Royal. It was a war of endurance and a clash of minds. Only the best ever could say that they had won War Games.)
(They had done it.)
(Golden fireworks exploded all around Nationals Park as Drake, Hans, and Kai soaked in their victory. Whatever pain they had been feeling had disappeared for the moment. The only thing they were experiencing as Territorial Invasion came to a close was the thrill of a well earned victory.)
(The end.)
(EAW logo buzzes.)
