Voltage 11/10/19

(EAW intro plays.)

(The show fades into the highlight video for last week’s Voltage.)

(The footage of Raven Roberts’s entrance is shown. The Universal Women’s Champion stated she was ready for her upcoming Extreme Warfare match with the rest of the Beating Hearts and at the same time she was eager to fight Constance Blevins at Wicked Games in her first title defense. The segment ends with Raven falling victim of one of Heavenly Hell’s mind games, as the champ is tarred and feathered.)

(The highlight reel then transitions into the first match of the night, as Il Principe Ezio DeLuca took on Damian Butler the Third in a one on one contest. The match was fairly even but in the end Ezio managed to get a win over Damian. We then fade to the backstage area where Ezio stumbled into Provençal, in what was a somewhat awkward moment brutally interrupted by Shortfuse PAKA. Ezio fell victim to a brutal assault from behind as PAKA rallied the troops back to his corner and made a statement for his match later on.)

(The highlight reel then showed footage of the special Dynasty triple threat match between Ronan Malosi, Angel de Plata Jr. and JJ Moon. It was a very high octane match. In the end, Angel de Plata Jr. stole the victory by pinning Moon.)

(We then see footage from the contract signing for the Big Boogie Bhampionship! Shawn Sturgis and Zak Simmons engaged in a war of words that was eventually interrupted by the bhamp himself. The crowd was hot for Woogie, who eventually signed the contract and made the Bhampionship match official! The highlight reel then transitions to HRDO’s office, as Rex McAllister and Jack Ripley come face to face just a few weeks before their Wicked Games match. Since both of them have the same goals, HRDO decides to make their Wicked Games match a qualifier for the Extreme Elimination Chamber!)

(Next up is the match between Frankie Paradise and Jesse Barlow. This time there’s a special guest commentator, Sarah Price, who will face Barlow at Wicked Games. During the match, Jesse’s friend Hannah confronted Sarah Price and the argument spilled out of control. Jesse Barlow still managed to successfully tap Frankie out in what was a very convincing performance.

(The highlights then show an altercation between Terry Chambers and Bethany Blue. Terry made his intentions clear as he appeared fully focused on beating the Doctor for the Interwire Championship in the Stretcher match at Wicked Games. We then fade to some tag team action, as the team of Zak Simmons and Terry Chambers took on Shawn Sturgis and the Interwire Champion Dr. Bethany Blue. The match was certainly an interesting one with the Woogieman as the special guest enforcer. As Woogieman was being bias and unfair, Dr. Bethany Blue tried to avoid Terry Chambers as much as possible. When they finally meet, Nurse Goldstein comes out looking to even the odds for the Doctor. But then Terry drops, and has a heart attack! Both of them don’t know what to do but in the end it was a ploy as Terry slams both Nurse Goldstein and the Good Doctor through the Spanish announcers table and stands tall in the end.)

(The highlight reel then shows footage of the fight between the rivals Sarah Price and Shortfuse PAKA. Voltage’s self proclaimed bar of excellence got the last laugh at the end, but when the special guest commentator Jesse Barlow decided to step inside the ring to attack Sarah, Shortfuse PAKA turned things around and blasted him with a headbutt.)

(We then fade to the Extreme Warfare match, in which the team of Andrea Valentine, Raven Roberts, Consuela Rose Ava and Ms. Extreme faced off against the team of Serena Riot, Korey Gaines, Veena Adams and the EAW World Champion, Charlie Marr. The match started off strong, with all eight competitors fighting against each other at once. A lot of close calls, as Consuela somehow managed to survive the Psychosis and Gaines got saved by Charlie Marr just before the three count after getting hit with the Knee of Death. The match finally ended with Ms. Extreme rolling Marr over for the one, two, three to get a pinfall on the EAW Champion just after he got a pin on her a week ago. The two now have an even playing field heading into Wicked Games!)

(The camera cuts to the inside of the arena where “33rd Blakk Glass” by Sosmula & Zillakami is playing as the crowd erupts. Gold and white pyro blast out of the stage and the sounds of “VOLTAGE! VOLTAGE! VOLTAGE!” are heard all across the arena. The camera pans to Rich Russillo and James Peters at the commentary desk, today they’re wearing matching shirts that say “Marr Screwed Marr” as they smile and begin to speak.)

Rich Russillo: Hello everyone and welcome! TO SUNDAY, NIGHT, VOLTAGE!!!

James Peters: Yes indeed and this is the go home show to Wicked Games! So we have a jam packed card for you to get you guys at home ready for the occasion-

Rich Russillo: Hold for a moment. I’ve just got word of something! Let’s cut to the back!

(The camera cuts to total mayhem as Zak Simmons and Shawn Sturgis are beating the living crap out of each other! The brawl has went everywhere as it looks like they barged out of the locker room, and are now trying to bash each other against the wall! They both move down the hallways as Elitists and workers move out of the way, not sure if they should intervene. Zak shoves Shawn into a production box before Shawn turns him around and shoves him into the box. They’re using the environment to their advantage as it’s hard to see which one has the upper hand on one another. Zak throws Shawn into the catering room as various EAW employees all around them scatter and run away as the fight escalates even more! Shawn gets knocked down but Zak tackles him onto a table of condiments! Both of them rain fist after fist down on them until finally officials and security rush in and split them up before anything gets worse! The officials finally are able to split them up as their war of words escalate even more as it looks like none of them wants the fight to end for one moment as this rivalry as reached a boiling point.)

(The camera cuts to the locker room. The Big Boogie Bhampion, The Woogieman, is seen at the monitor watching the fight unfold holding his bhampionship. He chuckles as he pats his Bhampionship.)

The Woogieman: They stand no chance! It looks like they’re not even gonna be 100%, I’ll be ready for whatever they throw at me. I AM THE WOOGIEMAN! I’LL STILL BE YOUR BIG BOOGIE BHAMPION AT THE END OF THE DAY!

(An arrogant smile crosses Woogie’s face as he lowers his sunglasses and raises his eyebrow. The crowd can be heard popping hardcore at the ring area, and Voltage fades to commercial break.)

(Commercial break for Investigation Discovery, America’s #1 true crime network. See chilling programming such as ‘Death in the Bayou’, ‘Web of Lies’, and ‘Deadly Secrets.’)

(Voltage returns and cuts to Rich and James once again.)

Rich Russillo: Wow, welcome back! Right before we cut to break, a brawl between Zak Simmons and Shawn Sturgis erupted backstage! I guess they wanted to get their Big Boogie Bhampionship match started early… and without the Bhamp!!

James Peters: The tension between Simmons and Sturgis continues to remain at an all-time high, especially when neither man got the resolution they needed against one another a couple of weeks ago. They were literally beating the snot out of one another, Rich!

Rich Russillo: And the GOAT was just hanging out backstage, laughing at them both! Woogie seemed to enjoy the sight of Simmons and Sturgis tearing one another apart!

(“Gangsta” by New Year’s Day begins to blast across the PA system and the crowd immediately erupts. The camera quickly switches to the stage while ring announcer Bella Braxton’s voice floats above the music.)

Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… PLEASE WELCOME THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER TO THE EAW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP…. MS. EXTREME!

(The ovation for Ms. Extreme gets even louder as ‘The Red Queen’ walks onstage. Ms. Extreme wears a pair of ripped jeans, a fitted ‘Beating Hearts’ shirt, leather jacket, and Converse sneakers. With California being Ms. Extreme’s home state, the crowd is especially amped up tonight as she begins making her way down the ramp.)

James Peters: Speaking of GOATs, one-third of the winning Voltage War Games team, Ms. Extreme, is set to take on EAW World Champion, Charlie Marr, in Barbed Wire Massacre III. This is a match I’ve been waiting for, Rich! On the very first Voltage of Season 13, Ms. Extreme and Charlie Marr teamed up together to take on then EAW World Champion Malcolm Jones and Andrea Valentine. Ms. Extreme would walk out on Charlie in the middle of the match and leave him as prey for Malcolm and Andrea!

Rich Russillo: It’s been one thing after another between these two, and between Charlie and the rest of the Beating Hearts of Voltage to be honest. It’s been a season long war, and if Ms. Extreme can take that EAW Championship next Saturday, there’s a damn good chance the war will finally come to an end.

James Peters: Right? You gotta like Andrea’s chances to finally vanquish Veena Adams for good, and if Ms. Extreme dethrones Charlie, then the Beating Hearts will have finally won the war.

(Ms. Extreme slides into the ring and raises her arms in the air. The crowd continues to mark out, even after her music fades away. Bella has given Ms. Extreme the microphone and record-setting former PURE Champion grins, encouraging the crowd to get even louder. They oblige.)

Ms. Extreme: Wow. You guys are something else. I take it you’re ready to see me dethrone that bearded bitch next weekend and send him packing?

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

Ms. Extreme: Perfect, because you know what? I’m ready for that happen too. Last week, I fought alongside my sister, Raven, and Andrea and helped them bring Charlie and his misfit team to their knees in the main event. ‘Extreme Warfare’ was everything it was set up to be and more. If there’s one thing I take great delight in, it’s the fact that I righted the wrong that happened two weeks ago in the tag match with Consuela, and I pinned the paper champ for the three count. One. Two. Three. Right in the middle of this ring, Charlie ate a loss to me and I didn’t have to hold his tights to keep him down like he did to me. If you ask me, THAT was the actual preview of next weekend’s Barbed Wire Massacre match, and I’ll be frank. I’m ready to to murder that useless fuck of a so-called champion.

Ms. Extreme: Charlie Marr has been a thorn in my side since day one of Voltage. He’s run his mouth, attacked my family and friends, and has just been an annoying douchebag. His title reign will go down as one of the worst in EAW history but mercifully all of that comes to an end at Wicked Games. I know Charlie is going to do nothing but spew lies and excuses next week, and thank god the novelty of his act is wearing off. He’s being dragged left and right, and that’s not limited to just Voltage. Everyone is jumping on the #FuckCharlieMarr bandwagon and all the anti-Charlie messages and insults have been music to my ears! The whole world is ready to celebrate that ugly gremlin’s downfall and I can’t wait to be the reason why Charlie Marr fades back into obscurity.

(Before she can continue, “It Ain’t Safe” by Skepta hits the PA system. A sneer crosses Ms. Extreme’s face, and the crowd is immediately on edge hearing Big Dick Bharlie’s theme music. A few seconds pass and finally Jordie Ripley strolls onto the stage wearing a tight, black minidress that shows a lot of cleavage and thigh high stiletto boots. There’s no Charlie with her, but the petite blonde has a microphone in her hand. The crowd takes exception to Jordie’s presence and immediately begins a derogatory chant.)

Crowd: SLUT! SLUT! SLUT! SLUT! SLUT! SLUT! SLUT! SLUT! SLUT!

Jordie Ripley: Oh gosh. That’s so rude! Aren’t you guys supposed to be Camille fans?? Why are you calling her a slut?!

(Ms. Extreme rolls her eyes to the back of her head.)

Ms. Extreme: Shut up, slut.

Jordie Ripley: Wow! Talk about lowering yourself to the level of these people and slut shaming someone who just wanted to come out here and have a civilized conversation with you. I know that concept gets lost on you, Camille, because you are far from civilized but I desperately wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt. All I wanted was to come out here and politely ask you to reconsider getting inside the ring with Charlie next weekend.

(The crowd laughs along with Ms. Extreme at Jordie’s absurd notion that someone such as Ms. Extreme would ever back down from a fight, let alone a fight if this caliber.)

Ms. Extreme: And why in the hell would I do that? How stupid are you right now?

(Jordie takes a few steps down the ramp so she can get a better look at Ms. Extreme.)

Jordie Ripley: I’m not stupid at all. In fact, I’m actually out here to give you an opportunity to save face before you end up humiliating yourself at Wicked Games. Barbed Wire Massacre is a match that was taylor made for Charlie. He competed in the last one back at Fighting Spirit against his cross dressing former tag team partner and he completely DESTROYED Daryl in that match. Daryl left that event broken and bloodied, and was never the same again. I know a lot of people give Osamu Archicida and his lame kneebar credit with ending Daryl, but it was everything Charlie put him through in Barbed Wire Massacre II that actually lead to Daryl’s demise. Charlie left him easy pickings for Osamu, and deep down you know he’s going to do the same to you.

Ms. Extreme: No, Jordie. That’s not how it’s going to happen because there’s a big difference between Daryl and myself. Daryl was weak and cut from a much different cloth than I am. You say an environment like Barbed Wire Massacre is made for Charlie? That kind of match is made for me just as much as Charlie. I have proven time and time again that there is no situation that phases me. Back at Bloodsport, Rex and I destroyed one another in a Hardcore Ironman Match. Rex took a screwdriver to my mouth in order to gain the advantage over me. I forced perhaps the greatest technical wrestler in EAW to dig deep and find a dark place to go too, and that’s the only reason Rex was able to come out on top in that match. Believe me, bitch, I’m not backing out of this match, and I’m taking the EAW World Championship.

(Jordie sighs and shakes her head.)

Jordie Ripley: Camille, be reasonable. For once in your life think with your head and not with your heart. You know that this situation isn’t going to end well for you, and you know that my baby Bharlie is going to murder you. He is going to end your career. He is more focused on killing you than he has been on anything else all season. The goal has never changed, despite what you whores might think. All these little moral victories you cunts have managed to accumulate aren’t going to matter in the grand scheme of things. Charlie’s not about to let you get your hands on his championship and he is prepared to do whatever the hell he has to do inside Barbed Wire Massacre to make sure he retains it. Go back and rewatch his match with Daryl, and relive the torture he inflicted on the man he once considered his brother! If Charlie is willing to go through all that in order to hurt someone he used to love, imagine what he’ll do to someone he doesn’t care anything about at all.

Ms. Extreme: Charlie doesn’t have a choice but to relinquish that belt to me because the only way the match is going to end is with my hand raised. There’s nothing I won’t do inside that match either and you better find another dick to attach yourself too because I’m taking Charlie by the balls and I’m going to emasculate the fuck out of him and make him regret every nasty comment he’s ever made towards a wo-

Rich Russillo: MS. EXTREME JUST GOT BLASTED IN THE BACK WITH A KENDO STICK! THE EAW WORLD CHAMP, BIG DICK BHARLIE, JUST CAME THROUGH THE CROWD AND BROKE THAT KENDO STICK ACROSS MS. EXTREME’S BACK! SHE’S DOWN AND CHARLIE IS PUTTING THE BOOTS TO HER! MS. EXTREME IS TRYING TO ROLL OUT OF THE WAY BUT CHARLIE GRABS HER BY THE THROAT AND HOISTS HER UP IN THE AIR!

James Peters: MS. EXTREME IS KICKING AND THRASHING, AND SHE MANAGES TO CATCH CHARLIE IN THE FACE! HE DROPS HER AND SHE REACHES UP, NAILING HIM RIGHT BETWEEN THE LEGS! CHARLIE IS DOWN ON THE MAT AND MS. EXTREME MOUNTS HIM, UNLEASHING A SERIES OF RIGHTS AND LEFTS! CHARLIE SOMEHOW COLLECTS HIMSELF AND HE THROWS MS. EXTREME OFF HIM! BOTH COMPETITORS SCRAMBLE BACK TO THEIR FEET AND CHARLIE LUNGES FOR MS. EXTREME! CHARING CRO- NO! SHE DUCKS THE DISCUS LARIAT! MS. EXTREME LEAPS ON CHARLIE’S BACK, BUT HE QUICKLY FLIPS HER DOWN ONTO THE MAT! CHARLIE NAILS HER WITH A HUGE KICK TO THE BACK AND HE SNATCHES HER UP BY THE HAIR! CHARLIE THROWS MS. EXTREME OUT OF THE RING AND HE CLIMBS OUT AFTER HER!

Rich Russillo: CHARLIE MARCHES TOWARDS THE TIME KEEPER’S AREA AND HE GRABS A STEEL CHAIR! CHARLIE MAKES HIS WAY BACK OVER TO MS. EXTREME, BUT SHE CATCHES HIM WITH A RIGHT HAND TO THE GUT! MS. EXTREME TRIES TO WRESTLE THE CHAIR AWAY FROM CHARLIE, BUT CHARLIE KICKS HER IN THE STOMACH AND SLAMS THE CHAIR OVER THE TOP OF HER HEAD! MS. EXTREME CRUMBLES TO THE GROUND, HOLDING HER HEAD!

James Peters: CHARLIE REACHES UNDER THE RING AND WITHDRAWS A COIL OF BARBED WIRE!

Rich Russillo: JORDIE HAS RUSHED INTO THE PICTURE AND CHARLIE INSTRUCTS HER TO HANG ON TO MS. EXTREME! JORDIE GRABS MS. EXTREME’S HANDS AND CHARLIE STARTS WRAPPING THE BARBED WIRE AROUND MS. EXTREME’S LEGS! MS. EXTREME IS FIGHTING WITH EVERYTHING SHE HAS IN HER AND SHE MANAGES TO GRAB JORDIE BY THE HAIR AND HEADBUTTS HER! JORDIE IS DAZED AND SHE FALLS BACK! CHARLIE IMMEDIATELY JUMPS ON MS. EXTREME AND BEGINS HAMMERING AWAY ON HER! MS. EXTREME SCRATCHES HIM ACROSS THE FACE AND THROWS HIM OFF! SHE UNTIES HER FEET AND GRABS THE BARBED WIRE, QUICKLY WRAPPING IT AROUND CHARLIE’S THROAT! MS. EXTREME WITH THE AVA LOCK! SHE HAS THE AVA LOCK!

(Security finally comes rushing to the ring and several officials grab Ms. Extreme and haul her off of Charlie. She’s kicking and fighting once again, doing whatever she can to get free. Both the world champion and the contender are bleeding and are disheveled, and both are still wanting to fight! Charlie has staggered up to his feet and has lunged for Ms. Extreme, but security blocks him and starts pulling her away!)

James Peters: MS. EXTREME JUST BROKE FREE AND SHE RUSHES TOWARDS CHARLIE! CHARLIE GRABS A HOLD OF JORDIE AND MS. EXTREME JUST TOOK JORDIE RIPLEY OUT WITH A SPEAR! JORDIE IS DOWN! MS. EXTREME IS LOOKING FOR CHARLIE! CHARLIE IS RETREATING THROUGH THE CROWD AND SECURITY JUST GRABBED MS. EXTREME BEFORE SHE COULD JUMP INTO THE CROWD AND FOLLOW CHARLIE!

Rich Russillo: Jesus Christ! This show has started off with two violent brawls and we haven’t even gotten to our first match yet.

James Peters: We have got to cut to commercial too, but security finally seems to have some kind of control over the situation. Charlie has disappeared and Ms. Extreme is being dragged up the ramp. Jordie Ripley is being checked on, and damn. Just damn. We’ll be right back.

(The final shot is of Camille shrugging off security and storming to the back.)

(Voltage cuts to commercial break.)

(Commercial break for the Alabama Crimson Tide and their crying, little pussy fans after getting beaten by LSU. :wow:)

(Voltage returns to break and cuts to Bella Braxton, who’s ready to announce the participants for the first match of the night.)

Bella Braxton: The following contest is scheduled for…

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Bella Braxton: And it is a Tag Team Match!

James Peters: Looks like we’re getting some tag team action tonight, folks!

Rich Russillo: You know all about that don’t you, JP?

James Peters: What I do with your mom and her sister on Taco Tuesday is our business.

Rich Russillo: Hey!

(Movin’ On Up’ by Primal Scream hits.)

Bella Braxton: Introducing first… from Providence, Rhode Island… weighing in at 244 lbs… Ezioooooooooo DeLuuuuuuuuuuuuuca!

(Ezio steps out onto the stage and looks out at the crowd. He stands there for a moment before making his way down the ramp and towards the ring.)

James Peters: The LGBT+ Community in full representation tonight! As is it is always but I just felt like I should say that.

Rich Russillo: Agreed. EAW supports the movement!

James Peters: And it looks like we’re getting a little extra movement from DeLuca right now.

(As Ezio takes the stairs up onto the apron, he does a little dance of gyration before climbing into the ring and moving over to a corner to lean back against the turnbuckle.)

Bella Braxton: And his partner…

(‘Desire’ by Meg Myers hits.)

Bella Braxton: From London, England… she is The Killer Queen… Joooooooyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Cherrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee!

(Joy Cheree steps out onto the stage in her velvet robe. She offers a twirl and bows to the crowd. Joy discards the robe with an aggressive toss and starts marching down to the ring. She stops occasionally to interact with a )

Rich Russillo: Here comes my favorite new hire at the moment!

James Peters: Favorite new… we don’t know anything about her!

Rich Russillo: She calls herself Sex Metal Barbie. That’s all I need to know.

James Peters: … that’s some pretty good knowledge right there, yeah.

(Joy hops onto the apron and turns towards the crowd, blowing kisses at them. She takes a long moment to flip her locks over her shoulder and steps through the ropes into the ring. Once inside, she heads over to the corner where Ezio DeLuca is and leans up against the ropes next to him.)

Bella Braxton: And their opponents…

(‘Battle Without Honor or Humanity’ by Tomoyasu Hotei hits and out steps Hajime Kawano steps out onto the stage with a mic in his hand. He steps down towards the ramp…)

Rich Russillo: Here we go with this again.

James Peters: #JusticeForBellaBraxton! Let’s get it trending people!

Rich Russillo: Yes. Support her girls!

James Peters: Stop that.

Hajime Kawano: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome an alliance so improbable it could the first sign of the end of the world, coming to you from their secret dojo in France and with a combined weight of 193 kilos, The Magnificent Bastard Provençal and Shortfuse PAKA ! Together they are…

(Hajime Kawano points at both Ezio DeLuca and Joy Cheree in the ring.)

Hajime Kawano: YOUR… ARRRRRCCCCCCH EEEEENNNNNEMIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

(Provencal runs out onto the ramp and raises a hand almost immediately, ready to high five. Shortfuse PAKA, however, ignores him as he arrives and storms down the ramp towards the ring. Hajime Kawano slaps Provencal’s high-fiving hand and he runs down to join Shortfuse PAKA in the ring.)

James Peters: Both teams getting a moment to figure out who’s starting off tonight…

(DING! DING! DING!)

James Peters: And here we go! Ezio DeLuca and Shorfuse PAKA are up first. Ezio exploding out of the corner and lunging at Shortfuse PAKA with a level of rage we’ve yet to see from the fairly new blood on EAW soil. DeLuca catches PAKA off-guard with a solid Shoulder Block. Shortfuse PAKA back up to his feet almost as quickly as he fell. DeLuca’s right there with the first in what looks to be a series of forearms! Another! Another! Another! Right down on the skull of Shortfuse PAKA! PAKA trying to cover up now… changing tactics… Shortfuse PAKA grabbing Ezio DeLuca now! PAKA lifts! DeLuca flails as he’s taken into the air!

Rich Russillo: SPINEBUSTER! PAKA causing the change in momentum here early on. PAKA pulls DeLuca up and transitions smoothly into a Fisherman Suplex. PAKA back up to his feet while DeLuca writhes on the mat. Looks like Shortfuse PAKA is targeting the back of Ezio DeLuca right now and keeping him out of that corner. Shortfuse PAKA wisely keeping his body between DeLuca and the outstretched hand of his partner, Joy Cheree.

James Peters: That’s right, Shortfuse PAKA’s ring awareness is some of the best in EAW. PAKA always knows where he is and where his opponents are. Gives him a definite edge in this kind of match up.

Rich Russillo: Ezio DeLuca makes it back to his feet. Shortfuse PAKA lays right into DeLuca’s chest with a stiff palm strike. DeLuca backs up. PAKA stays on him and aims another strong palm strike but DeLuca sidesteps! DeLuca bouncing off the ropes now, Paka turns and gets dropkicked dead in the face by Ezio DeLuca! What a display of athleticism to get himself back into this match!

James Peters: Shortfuse PAKA is holding his face. Ezio DeLuca is also taking a quick breather. One has to wonder if it’s too early for either of them to make a tag. Joy Cheree looks like she can’t wait to get involved. She’s yanking on those ropes and its got the crowd pretty hype!

Rich Russillo: Meanwhile, The Magnificent Bastard is staring at her from across the ring and looking like he can’t wait for the bell to ring.

James Peters: Both men are back on their feet, though PAKA looks a little more wobbly than DeLuca right now. A swift kick to PAKA’s gut from DeLuca. Ezio grabs him… side headlock and it looks like he’s squeezing down on PAKA’s skull. Shortfuse PAKA struggling against DeLuca. PAKA trying to get free. PAKA with a couple of elbows now! DeLuca’s grip is loosening! PAKA gets leverage and shoves DeLuca off him! DeLuca hits the ropes, bouncing off and back towards a now upright Shortfuse PAKA!

Rich Russillo: PAKA’s ready for him… dropping low and lifting DeLuca up for a high angle flapjack! Wait, what?! Joy’s hand is outstretched! DeLuca reaches out his hand as well! DeLuca descends but the tag was made! Holy shit! Here she comes!

James Peters: DeLuca hits the mat but Joy Cheree leaps over the ropes as a woman possessed! She’s headed straight for PAKA and he doesn’t even know a tag was made! PAKA turns around but Joy Cheree is right there with that Running Double Knee Smash! PAKA’s down and Joy’s still on fire!

Rich Russillo: DeLuca is scrambling to get out of the ring and recover from that vicious flapjack from PAKA. Joy attempts to capitalize on her fiery momentum by falling on top of Shortfuse PAKA and hooking the leg!

OOONEEE!

Rich Russillo: Shortfuse PAKA powers right out of it. There’s no way he’s letting this new girl, no matter how sexy and metal she is, win that easily.

James Peters: Joy Cheree staying in control of this match now that she’s in it. She pulls PAKA to his feet and hooks him up. She grabs at his tights and goes backward with a speedy Snap Suplex! PAKA’s in pain but looks to be close enough to his corner to make a tag! He reaches but Provencal’s hand is not there. In fact, it looks like Provencal’s hesitating! Why is he hesitating?

Rich Russillo: It has to be because Joy Cheree is the legal wrestler right now. Provencal’s still too much of a fucking weakling to fight a woman! You know something, I’m starting to think this kind of makes Provencal sexist.

James Peters: What. No. Just stop talking. Right now.

Rich Russillo: Now hold on, hear me out on this…

James Peters: I will not! Because Joy Cheree is showing her talent off right now. She’s got PAKA down on the mat and she’s working that arm. She’s got that Fujiwara Armbar locked in tight and PAKA’s got nowhere to go. I think she might make him tap here! The official’s asking but PAKA keeps shaking his head! He won’t do it! He won’t tap!

Rich Russillo: Maybe if The Sexist Bastard would man up, PAKA wouldn’t be in this situation right now!

James Peters: If you don’t leave that man and his beliefs alone. He’s chivalrous!

Rich Russillo: This EAW! Ain’t nobody got time for that!

James Peters: Wow.

Rich Russillo: Shortfuse PAKA has had enough! He’s dragging himself… and Joy Cheree over towards those ropes. Joy’s pulling against him but PAKA’s strength and determination is winning out. PAKA reaches out and… latches those fingers around the bottom rope. And the official is right there to make Joy break the hold. That ring awareness saves Shortfuse PAKA once again.

James Peters: As Joy Cheree is backed off by the official, Shortfuse PAKA uses the ropes to get himself back to his feet. Hs favors his arm a bit, that armbar must’ve hurt, but he’s glaring daggers at Provencal. Pissed off doesn’t even begin to cut it! Joy Cheree rushes at Shortfuse PAKA! PAKA reverses and Irish Whips Cheree into the corner! Joy winces in pain as she bounces off the turnbuckle and — SHOTGUN DROPKICK! JOY’S DOWN! PAKA’S UP ON HIS FEET AND SPOTS THE DOWNED JOY. PAKA RUNS TO THE CORNER AND SLAPS PROVENCAL ON THE SHOULDER! TAG!

Rich Russillo: The Magnificent Bastard… takes his time getting into the ring. Provencal’s hesitation is ticking the Shortfuse of PAKA off even more. PAKA’s yelling at him to turn around but Provencal’s in no rush to wrestle Joy Cheree. Provencal’s not going to get his wish because Joy runs right up behind him, spins him around and leaps at the top rope… bounding off and SPRINGBOARD TORNADO DDT DRIVING PROVENCAL FACE FIRST INTO THAT MAT! Joy goes for the cover immediately!

James Peters: The official drops down to count but a quick stomp to the back of Joy’s head from Shortfuse PAKA breaks the pin attempt. The ref sends Shortfuse PAKA back onto the apron and warns him. Joy does the same as she’s up on her feet and ready to retaliate against PAKA for that stomp. She turns back to see Provencal trying to crawl away and is on him like a cat playing with a mouse! Joy pulls Provencal up to his feet and sends him right into the ropes. Provencal bounces off… and Joy goes for a clothesline, only to have Provencal try to block it and duck at the same time! What is he doing?!

Rich Russillo: Provencal’s arm is hooked around Joy’s! He goes down and sends Joy overhead with the most unorthodox arm drag I’ve ever seen! Joy hits the mat and pops right back up out of pained habit and runs right into her corner. She’s checking with Ezio to see if he’s ready to come back in while she takes a breather. They tag.

James Peters: Provencal’s too busy arguing with Shortfuse PAKA to notice that his opponent has changed. Provencal obviously wants to make a tag but PAKA is denying him! Ezio DeLuca stalks Provencal as he lowers himself into a three-point stance. DeLuca’s eyes are right on Provencal! Provencal turns and here comes DeLuca! THE RUNDOWN! HOLY SHIT! PROVENCAL’S FLIPPED INSIDE OUT BY THE POWER OF THAT CLOTHESLINE! Provencal hits the mat but rebounds right back up to his feet! Provencal has no clue where he is as he stumbles around and falls backward into the turnbuckle. One of his flailing hands slaps against Shortfuse PAKA’s shoulder and that counts as a tag!

Rich Russillo: A lot of crazy tagging happening tonight! I’ve seen some impressive tag teams in the EAW but I think we might be seeing some tag team stars in the making here.

James Peters: You mean Ezio and Joy or The Arch Enemies?

Rich Russillo: Yes.

James Peters: I hate it when you do that.

Rich Russillo: And that’s exactly why I do it. The Sexist–

James Peters: Magnificent!

Rich Russillo: Bastard is out in the corner even as Shortfuse PAKA climbs back into the ring. DeLuca’s wasting no time and aims a superkick right at PAKA’s skull! PAKA ducks and tries to counter with his KNOCKOUT HEADBUTT! DeLuca jumps backwards to avoid the hard head of Shortfuse PAKA, hits the ropes and launches himself into the air! THE ANCHOR DROP! THE ANCHOR DROP CONNECTS!

James Peters: Joy ‘s on the apron hyping up the crowd and DeLuca starts to stalk PAKA. Shortfuse PAKA getting to his feet now and DeLuca is watching and waiting. PAKA turns his back to the ramp and DeLuca rushes him! Looks like he’s going for the Spear of Justice! NO! PAKA catches him! Flips him up! POWERBOMB! That might’ve just turned the tide right back to The Arch Enemies! Shortfuse PAKA flips DeLuca over… he’s got Ezio’s legs… yup, here it is! The Shortfuse Lock! It’s locked in but DeLuca is refusing to tap!

Rich Russillo: And it may not have to because here comes Hannah Marin! She’s running down the ramp towards the ring! Provencal points from the apron and PAKA turns… releasing his grip on DeLuca! Shortfuse PAKA’s attention is on Hannah Marin! He doesn’t trust her one bit!

James Peters: I wouldn’t either! Would you?

Rich Russillo: … depends on what she’s wearing.

James Peters: You are sick.

Rich Russillo: Wait! What happened! Someone just yanked Provencal off the apron!

James Peters: That can only be one person! Where there’s smoke there’s fire! And where there’s Hannah Marin there’s…

Rich Russillo: JESSE BARLOW! HE’S IN THE RING AND ATTACKING PAKA FROM BEHIND!

(DING DING DING!)

James Peters: Hannah Marin smiling on the outside! Her mere appearance causing both a distraction putting an abrupt end to this match!

Rich Russillo: Brilliant strategy by Hannah Marin there.

(As Jesse Barlow stands over Shortfuse PAKA, Ezio DeLuca and Joy Cheree get the hell out of dodge, clearing out from the ring and rushing up the ramp. Their confident smiles tell it all.)

James Peters: DeLuca and Cheree are out of here. They want no part of this drama but what a showing from those two tonight, huh?

Rich Russillo: They were definitely firing on a whole different set of cylinders. That’s for damn sure.

James Peters: I’d say this new Voltage crop looks to be some of the best we’ve had in years.

Rich Russillo: Agreed. But how about Hannah Marin? Outsmarting Shortfuse PAKA like that?

James Peters: She may have just put herself in the crosshairs. Barlow won’t always be around to protect her.

(Provencal and Hajime hit the ring, while Jesse quickly retreats. He wears a smirk on his face as he takes Hannah’s hand and begins to pull her up the ramp. Voltage fades to commercial break.)

(Commercial break for ‘My 500 Pound Life’ starring a Xander Payne look alike named Lander Cayne.)

(Voltage returns and fades into the backstage area where EAW Network host and backstage correspondent, Molly Waters, is standing by. Molly wears a pair of light denim skinny jeans, a black off the shoulder top, and black wedges. Standing with her is EAW Vice President and acting Co-Commissioner of Voltage, HRDO. HRDO looks sharp in a custom made Gucci suit. Molly smiles into the camera and begins speaking.)

Molly Waters: Ladies and gentlemen, next weekend, EAW will be hosting the Voltage exclusive event, Wicked Games. Joining me right now to talk about Wicked Games is our Vice President and acting Co-Commissioner, HRDO. How are you this evening, sir?

HRDO: Exhausted but pleased to have Reasonable Doubt out of the way.

Molly Waters: I understand that you wanted to make an announcement in regards to Wicked Games?

(HRDO nods.)

HRDO: Over the last few weeks, things have been rather heated between Jesse Barlow, Sarah Price, and Shortfuse PAKA. So based on the events of last weekend, as well as the incident that took place earlier tonight in our opening match, it’s only fitting that Shortfuse PAKA is added to the Interwire Championship contendership match between Barlow and Price.

Molly Waters: So you’re saying it’s a triple threat now?

HRDO: That’s exactly what I’m saying.

Molly Waters: Nice.

(Molly grins.)

Molly Waters: Now Road to Redemption is coming up… which means the Extreme Elimination Chamber is coming up. Wicked Games is the last event before the entire company turns its attention towards that event, which will air live on free-per-view the weekend of December 14th from the Rogers Center in Toronto. Last week you made the made between Rex McAllister and Jack Ripley a qualifying match for the chamber. What other matches that are taking place next weekend could potentially impact the Voltage side of Road to Redemption?

HRDO: Indirectly, every match will end up impacting Road to Redemption because I plan on building the strongest and most competitive chamber we can possibly have. There’s a lot of talent on Voltage, and a lot of up and coming talent that I have my eyes on. What happens next weekend is going to set the tone of Voltage going forward. I believe that this brand is finding its footing again and I’m pleased with the way things have been going following Bloodsport. In the coming weeks, Voltage will be hosting more qualifying matches for the chamber and I look forward to seeing who earns a chance to compete for the EAW World Championship.

Molly Waters: What about the Interwire Championship contendership match? Will the winner of that match be getting their shot at gold on Voltage, or perhaps at Road to Redemption?

HRDO: Either Barlow, Price, or PAKA will find themselves with an Interwire Championship match at Road to Redemption. Whomever wins between Dr. Blue and Terry Chambers will defend the title at our next big event.

Molly Waters: That will be the biggest match for any of those three potential challengers!

HRDO: Absolutely. The men and women of Voltage have been through a lot this season. The board, Mr. DEDEDE, and myself have not hidden our displeasure for how the brand has been ran. We took the necessary steps to start correcting the problem, and things are only going to get better. We will make sure that going forward, everyone on Voltage is treated fairly, regardless of their gender, and there will be plenty of opportunities to be earned. I’m looking forward to seeing our Voltage Elitists compete at Wicked Games next weekend.

Molly Waters: Wicked Games, live next weekend from the Chase Center, and only on free-per-view! HRDO, thank you so much for your time.

(The scene fades back to ringside.)

(The camera cuts to Bella Braxton in the middle of the ring.)

Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen please welcome, KOREY GAINES!!!!!!!!!!

(“Thunderstruck” by ACDC plays as Korey Gaines comes out to the stage. He has a mic in his hand and twirls it around before making his way to the ring, high fiving fans along the way. He enters the ring and looks around for a moment with a smile before beginning to speak.)

Korey Gaines: WHAT’S UP CALIFORNIA!!!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Korey Gaines: I know you’re expecting me in a match next, but I wanted to take a few minutes to talk to all of you. I’m excited to be here, even though my Wicked Games opponent, Consuela Rose Ava, somehow got the night off. BUT ANYWAYS! I’ve come out here to emphasize what I’ve said this week before I enter the squared circle with Terry Chambers. All this time, every time I’ve stepped out here, I haven’t been given the respect I deserve in the eyes of the locker room. I’ve mainevented before, I’ve butted heads with the sickest of people, I’ve fought for this goddamn brand! Yet I’ve been overlooked because I’m in the position I’m in currently, and I won’t stand for that much longer. Terry thinks of me the same as the others do. Terry I’m a changed man from the last time you saw me. Compare me to when we stepped into the ring together last time to the performance I had last week. I kicked the ever living shit out of anyone who stepped in my way. I definitely wasn’t afraid to step up to Consuela and put my words to action. I stomped through this match, and although I lost it shows that Korey Gaines has the heart to fight through anything that comes in his way, even Consuela. The Consuela Rose Ava who is scared to cash in that 24/7 Contract. I speak for the people here and I will echo it across the room if I have to, to see a hard working competitor like Consuela win the contract yet not do a damn thing with it, pisses me off more than anything else. I worked hard to make sure I get that contract and I’m not stopping at Pain For Pride, that’s why I challenged you Consuela, it’s as simple as that. I want that 24/7 Contract, not because I’m gonna hold back on making my decision at the end of the day. I know my goal and the goal is to be a champion, and by then maybe I’ll move out of the shadow of my former self and shine in the bright lights holding up a title Consuela Rose Ava could then only dream about. So when I put on a high-caliber match with Terry Chambers, Consuela, you just remember at Wicked Games who the hell I am, I AM THE AERIAL WONDER! YOUR NEXT 24/7-

(“We Appreciate Power” by Grimes plays to even louder cheers as Consuela Rose Ava comes out. She shakes her head as she makes her way to the ring. She enters as Korey watches her take a mic and begin to speak.)

Consuela Rose Ava: You seem to never learn do you? I actually do hope that your whole main purpose of coming out here isn’t to say I’m scared to cash in the contract I hold rightfully, because that’s stupid, and you should know that. I have a lot of decisions to make with this contract and with that I hold the opportunity to cash in on whoever I please. For someone who’s been running his mouth all the way up until now, you don’t seem to grasp the concept of the 24/7 contract. I can cash it in whenever I want and I plan to concisely do so and when that time comes maybe you’ll reconsider everything. Yet even if you assume to believe that, that won’t stop me from kicking your ass at Wicked Games and wiping that smile off your face. So Korey, I honestly hope you can back up your words, or else you’ll be more embarrassing than you already are now with what you spew out of your mouth. I’m not letting you ruin the path I set myself on just because you don’t like the way I’m handling something I rightfully earned.

Korey Gaines: Didn’t you see what I did last week Consuela? You were there, weren’t you? I took out Andrea, kicked your sister in the face, and you as well! If anything that serves as a warning, that proves as a standing point on it’s own, that I can get into the ring with you, and I can put up a damn good fight, and with the possibilities that are at hand, who knows you might not even have your contract at the end of the day!

Consuela Rose Ava: You forgot to bring up the fact that Camille took you out and besides your team didn’t even win. Maybe if you were good enough, you would’ve broken up that pin and kept the match going, but you just aren’t. You’re full of broken promises and lies and if you can’t seem to believe that I’ll show you at Wicked Games because if you even think for a second what you said right now will suffice to give me a reason why you’re going to win, you’re gonna be in for a surprise come our match.

Korey Gaines: Believe me once the time comes you’ll be in for a surprise. Because you don’t even believe for a minute that I can win. Sure you might have won the battle last week, but you haven’t won the war yet, and once I’m done with my opponent tonight I won’t stop continuously proving you wrong.

Consuela Rose Ava: Speaking of your opponent tonight how about you shut up and focus on him. And once you’re all said and done with that then I should be your main priority then, but for all that talk you seem to haven’t been focusing on the present, so get your head on straight will you?

(Consuela Rose Ava leaves the ring and pulls up a seat at ringside as Korey begins to divert his attention from Consuela looking ready for a fight.)

( While the crowd begins to mumble, ‘Natural’ by Imagine Dragons blasts through the venue speakers. The audience loudly roars as a calmed Terry Chambers makes his way down the ramp and into the ring. )

Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR…

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Bella Braxton: Already in the ring… Korey Gaines! AND MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING NOW! From Detroit, Michigan, weighing in at 287 pounds… TTTTTEEEERRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYY CHAAAAAAMMMMBBERRRS!!!

Rich Russillo: Terry Chambers steps into the ring tonight as he renews his rivalry with Korey Gaines. We are a week away from when Chambers gets an opportunity to reclaim the EAW Interwire Championships from Dr. Bethany Blue in a Stretcher match. I’m certain the doctor will put her undivided attention on studying Chambers’ tonight, so Terry is gonna lock himself in championship mode and that could be detrimental to Korey Gaines’ chances tonight.

James Peters: Don’t disregard that Korey Gaines has an important bout where the 24/7 Contract will be on the line against Consuela. Both Gaines and Chambers will renew their rivalry, but their main focus is gaining momentum heading into San Francisco.

( DING! DING! DING! )

Rich Russillo: Gaines and Chambers walking away from their corners as they begin to lock eyes onto each other. What a match this will be as they engage in a collar-and-elbow tie-up. Chambers quickly transitions it into a wrist hold, twisting it as Gaines kips-up off the ground, slaps his wrist away and drives his elbow into his jaw.

James Peters: Gaines comes off the ropes, Chambers takes him down with a shoulder tackle as he comes off the ropes. Gaines hops down, Chambers jumps over while Gaines leapfrogs into the air! CHAMBERS CATCHES HIM AND SENDS HIM DOWN WITH AN INVERTED ATOMIC DROP!! Chambers comes off the ropes once again! BIG BOOT!!

Rich Russillo: Gaines ducks the boot and sends Chambers flying towards the turnbuckles with a hurricanrana! Gaines has Terry in a good position as he jumps up! AND SMASHES HIS ELBOW ONTO CHAMBERS!! Gaines whips hi- Chambers holds onto the turnbuckles, pulls him in and connects with a forearm smash across the face. Gaines is stunned as Chambers hops onto the top turnbuckle. Chambers is seated as GAINES JUMPS UP!!! AND CHAMBERS GOES CRASHING INTO THE CANVAS!!!

James Peters: Gaines showing off his athleticism as he jumped up and managed to get the headscissors to send Chambers off the top with a sensational hurricanrana. That caught everyone in the arena by surprise as GAINES JUMPS UP!!! AND SPLASHES ONTO CHAMBERS WITH A STANDING SHOOTING STAR PRESS! COVER!

ONE.. T-

Rich Russillo: Chambers pops his shoulder off the canvas. Gaines forces him into the corner and whips him. Terry turns it around as Gaines comes towards the corner. TERRY FOLLOWS UP!!! CORNER ELBOW!! HE TURNS AROUND!! ENZIGURI!! NO!! Terry was looking for the Random Act of Violence, but Gaines manages to catch his leg!

James Peters: Gaines trying to turn it around into some sort of submission, but Terry uses his other leg, AND SENDS HIM FLYING OUT OF THE RING!! Gaines with a hard plummet onto the ringside floor as Chambers rises back up to his feet! HE RUNS THE ROPES!!!! AND SOARS ONTO GAINES WITH A SUIIICIDDDDEEE DIVE!!!

BUT GAINES SIDESTEPS AND CHAMBERS HAND GOES SMACKDAB INTO THE RINGPOST!!

James Peters: That thud was heard around the world as Gaines shoves Chambers from behind, and sends his face crashing into the ringpost. Gaines knows what he’s doing as he climbs onto the turnbuckle. Chamber still feeling the impact into the ring past as GAINES BACKFLIPS OFF THE TOP!! ASAI MOONSAULT!!!

Rich Russillo: NO!!! Chambers catches him in midair! Gaines has nowhere to go as Chambers turns it around! AND DRIVES HIM INTO THE BARRICADE WITH AN EXPLODER SUPLEX!!! Chambers showing no remorse as he throws Gaines back into the squared circle. Korey is seated in the corner as CHAMBERS COMES CHARGING IN FROM THE OTHER CORNER!!! CLEAR THE DECK!!! Cannonball!!!!!

James Peters: Kickout! Chambers pulls him up to his feet and tilts him against the turnbuckles.. AND CONNECTS WITH A KNIFE-EDGE CHOP RIGHT ACROSS THE CHEST OF GAINES!! However, the slap into the ringpost is still being a burden to Chambers as he tries to shake off the pain. He goes for another one! GAINES DUCKS!! AND CHAMBERS MISSES ONCE AGAIN AND SLAPS THE TURNBUCKLE INSTEAD!!

Rich Russillo: Gaines latches on his back! AND DRILLS HIM WITH THE BACKSTABBER!! He doesn’t go for the cover as he stomps the hand of Chambers… Gaines has found a discrepancies and he will continue to target it the entire match. He kicks his hand away before grabbing it. Gaines trying to out-technique Chambers as he twists it around.However, Chambers pushes Gaines away! AND TURNS HIM INSIDE OUT WITH HIS OTHER ARM!!! WHAT A CLOTHESLINE!!!

James Peters: Chambers still having difficulty as he drags Gaines up to his feet with other hand. He goes in for a punch, GAINES JUMPS UP AND ROLLS HIM UP INTO AN ARMBAR!! WHERE THE HELL DID GAINES GET THAT FROM AND CHAMBERS IS IN TROUBLE!! Terry usually has the monkey grip to avoid the armbar being fully locked in, but the recent damage to his hand does not go in his favour. Gaines has done his homework, he knows what to expect from the previous encounters and we could see Terry Chambers submit in the middle of the ring.

Rich Russillo: This could also entail what could happen to Consuela at Wicked Games. Chambers fighting through the pain as he pins Gaines onto the mat. Before the referee could count he HOISTS HIM OFF THE GROUND!!! AND TOSSES HIM INTO THE MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE WITH A DEADLIFT BUCKLE BOMB!! Gaines is out as Chambers falls to the ground…

James Peters: Chambers quickly gets up to his feet, shakes off the pain and CHARGES INTO GAINES!! CLEAR THE DECK AGAIN!!! BUT NOBODY’S HOME!! CHAMBERS GOES CRASHING INTO THE TURNBUCKLES AS GAINES GOT OUT OF HARM’S WAY AT THE LAST SECOND!! Gaines is still rocked from that powerbomb as runs into Chambers! AND SENDS HIM BACK INTO THE CORNER WITH A SHOTGUN DROPKICK!!

Rich Russillo: Chambers goes colliding into the turnbuckles as Gaines ascends the turnbuckles. This could be it as GAINES FLIPS FORWARDS! 450 SPLASH!! NO!!! CHAMBERS ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY!!! AND CIRCLES AROUND GAINES!! LOCKED IN THE CHAMBERS!! THE SLEEPER HOLD IS LOCKED IN AS HE PULLS HIM INTO THE GROUND!! But Gaines rolls over and pinned him down!

Gaines rains down the blade of his shoulder onto the neck, stopping Chambers as he jumps over the ropes, and drills him with a rope-assisted enziguri.

Rich Russillo: I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone escape that Uranagi counter as Gaines rolls through the ropes and into the canvas. He springs off the ground, ROLLING THUNDER FAC- CHAMBERS HOISTS GAINES INTO THE AIR!! AND SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH A URANAGI! Gaines gasping for air as Chambers follows up and jumps up!

James Peters: Chambers powers out! An amazing offense from Korey Gaines as he continues to put gas on the pedal.

( DING! DING! DING! )

( ‘Natural’ by Imagine Dragons hits to a resounding pop. Chambers quickly exits the ring, raising his arms in victory as Gaines has just awaken. )

Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…. TERRRY CHAMMMBERRRSS!!!!

James Peters: We got a rivalry revisited here tonight and what a bombshell of a match that was. Terry Chambers and Korey Gaines continue to show the entire plant why they deserve a spot at the top. Well done to Korey Gaines, but Terry Chambers walks out with the victory.

Rich Russillo: Korey Gaines did his homework, but while it was not enough to put away Chambers, he proved that he has what it takes to hold that 24/7 contract come Wicked Games.

( A smirking Consuela Rose Ava begins to make her way to the back, and Korey glares at the back of her head. After a moment, he summons the last bit of his energy, gets to his feet, and sprints towards Consuela. He grabs her by the arm and whirls her around!)

James Peters: SUPERKICK TO AVA!!!! CONSUELA IS OUT AS GAINES IS FURIOUS!! Ava ultimately cost Gaines this match and she is paying for it.. Gaines quickly goes to the top rope and is now perched on the top turnbuckle! GAINES FLIPS!!!! FOURRRR FIFFFTTTYYY SPLASSSH TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING TO CONSUELA!!!!!!! GAINES CONNECTS!!!

Rich Russillo: That is a message to Consuela Roe Ava because we might very well see that happen at Wicked Games.

(The crowd doesn’t really care for Korey’s actions against their hometown girl, but he’s past the point of caring. He gets to his feet and begins to make his way to the back as Voltage fades to commercial break.)

(Commercial break for Dasani bottled water.)

(Voltage comes back from commercial to the backstage area. Terry Chambers is seen walking to the locker room after his incredible match against Korey Gaines. He’s about to open the door to the locker room when none other than the Interwire Champion Dr. Bethany Blue attacks him! Terry is caught off guard as the Doctor stomps on him multiple times furiously before looking down on him and speaking.)

Dr. Bethany Blue: Do you honestly think your funny Terry?! Well you’re not!

(She flips her sandy brown hair out of her face, her face flushed with anger.)

Dr. Bethany Blue: That trick you pulled last week was not funny! It’s not like you can drop down to the floor faking a heart attack without knowing the consequences, huh?! Millions of people a year die from heart attacks and you?! Your morbidly obsese self just making a fool out of all those innocent lives that have been taken is the last straw for me! I was genuinely concerned about you Terry because my job as a medical professional is to treat people no matter who they are and I’ll admit I believed that you were actually having one. You should be disappointed in yourself!

(The Doctor stomps away on Terry and even hits him with the Interwire Championship a few times. Dr. Bethany Blue, clearly furious, takes a step back to take a breather to calm down, meanwhile Terry is slowly trying to get up as he falls to a knee trying to realize what’s going on at this moment. Dr. Bethany Blue realizes and runs at him looking to hit him with the Interwire Championship but Terry grabs the belt before Dr. Bethany Blue can do so and yanks it away from her to the shock of the Doctor! Dr. Bethany Blue looks angered as she reels back a punch but Terry blocks it with the title before hitting her back, gaining some offense! They begin to move around the backstage area as they brawl. Terry pushes Dr. Bethany Blue across the hallway but that doesn’t mean she’s not fighting back as she lands her fair share of punches down on Terry! Terry shoves the Interwire Championship right in the Doctor’s face but she pushes it away and manages to push Terry into the wall! Terry then grabs Dr. Bethany Blue and throws her into the wall, her back clearly in pain. Terry tries to bash her head in the wall but the Doctor fights back as she holds her ground and slips out of Terry’s grasp. Terry continues to slam the Doctor into multiple walls but she lands punches, loosening his grasp on her a bit. Dr. Bethany Blue manages to slip out and go behind Terry and manages to push him through a door and into another room!)

(Medical personnel run out the door frightened as Terry and Dr. Bethany Blue somehow manage to end up in the medical room as the brawl continues! Terry manages to push Dr. Bethany Blue away gaining some separation. Dr. Bethany Blue stumbles around and leans against a cabinet as Terry moves in yet the Doctor was prepared as she opens a cabinet and stabs him with a syringe! There was nothing in it that we know of, but it was enough to distract Terry as he stumbles onto a stretcher clutching his arm and trying to pull the syringe out. Dr. Bethany Blue looks at the situation with a smirk as she lands a few punches on Terry trying to keep him down on the stretcher looking to strap him down! Yet Terry blocks a punch thrown by her and lands a punch down on the Doctor forcing her to step back and catching her off guard ! Terry runs at her and swings for the fences knocking her down! Terry drags her up by the arms and lifts her up. Dr. Bethany Blue tries to scramble away and escape but the strength of Terry Chambers is too much as he places her on the stretcher. Terry lands a few punches keeping her down as he manages to strap her in and she struggles trying to escape.)

Dr. Bethany Blue: THIS IS MISUSE OF A MEDICAL EQUIPMENT! I CAN REPORT YOU TO HEALTH AND SAFETY! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TROUBLE YOU COULD GET INTO!

Terry Chambers: Hush, hush… Bethany I’d consider this a little preview of what’s going to happen at Wicked Games when you enter the ring and look me straight in the eyes. When you look me in the eyes you see yourself, you see the fear you’ve had of me ever since I promised I’d gain my title back once and for all. You look at me and you see the man you’ve tried to avoid for so long but now your forced to face, face your fears, the inevitable has come. Embrace your title while you have it Bethany, because once this is all over, once you wake up from that lucid nightmare you have that is going to be our match at Wicked Games, you might not have it anymore. I set out to be a 2-time Interwire Champion and I promise you that I will not regret anything I do leading up to, and during our match, leaving me with only one option at this point of time. Consider this another taste of your own medicine, nighty night.

Dr. Bethany Blue: WHAT-

(Terry pushes the stretcher as it slams into a wall, disrupting a pile of equipment as it all topples over the stretcher and the Doctor! Terry has a sinister smirk on his face as he looks down on the ground to see the Interwire Championship he has long fought for. He grabs it and holds it up in the air with a smirk

Terry Chambers: And I vow, “doctor” that I will gain this title back, one way, or another. Consider this a warning shot. You’re the prey and I am ‘The Barbaric Carnivore.’

(The camera fades to the ringside area and cuts to Bella.)

Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for…

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(“Stitch” by Wage War plays to cheers as Jack Ripley comes out to the stage. He looks fired up and determined as he makes his way to the ring interacting with fans)

Bella Braxton: Introducing first, from Las Vegas Nevada, weighing in at 202 pounds… THE STRAIGHT SHOOTER, JACK…RIPLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rich Russillo: Ever since returning to Voltage Jack hasn’t had the best of a time here just last week losing to Andrea Valentine and the week before that not even winning or losing against Terry Chambers, but he said shit happens.

James Peters: He also said it takes one week to get things on track here. And I think he plans to put that in place tonight, but is it against the right opponent?

(Jack enters the ring and goes to the top rope looking out and the sea of people in the crowd pointing to signs and giving off a radiant smile as he jumps off and gets ready as “Stitch” fades out. “Mark My Words” by Dollskin plays as Raven Roberts enters holding up her Universal Women’s Championship. She smiles as she places the championship on her shoulder and makes her way to the ring with her eyes fixed on it)

Bella Braxton: And his opponent, from Louisville Kentucky, weighing in at 148 pounds… she is THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION, RAVEN… ROBERTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rich Russillo: As for Raven Roberts she has a lot on her plate not only this week but NEXT week at Wicked Games as she defends her championship against one half of Heavenly Hell in Constance Blevins.

James Peters: But I’m pretty sure she’s not gonna let that clutter her mind as she faces Jack Ripley tonight, because she knows Jack Ripley is not one to look over, and also the fact that he is also facing Rex McAllister at Wicked Games. But Raven is here for a fight and I expect nothing more than that.

(Raven enters the ring and goes to the top rope spreading her arms out and looking out to the crowd. She then jumps down and raises her Universal Women’s Championship up and going to her corner as “Mark My Words” fades out and the Ref signals for the bell)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Rich Russillo: Here we go as this match is underway and both competitors lock up!

Raven has a face of agony as Ripley throws her into the ring and closely follows.

James Peters: Raven slowly crawls up to her feet as Jack enters. He pulls her up before lifting her up in the air I think he’s looking for that lawn dart throw! RIPLEY RUNNING TO THE CORNER- RAVEN SLIPS OUT! JACK’S FACE COLLIDES WITH THE TURNBUCKLE AS HE STIRS UP! TALON!!! RIPLEY GETS BOOTED RIGHT IN THE FACE BUT RAVEN LOOKS IN SURPRISE AS JACK FALLS OUT OF THE RING! Ripley is knocked out as Raven is forced to roll out and roll him back into the ring but that beckons the question now will the Talon be enough to put Jack Ripley away?

Rich Russillo: Well it seems Raven doesn’t think so as she’s yelling at Jack to get to his feet! FACELIFT- NO! JACK PUSHES RAVEN AWAY BEFORE SHE CAN ATTEMPT THE SPINNING HEEL KICK! RAVEN RUNS! DAYLIGHT! SLAYING! TIME!!! RIPLEY KNOCKS THE LIGHT OUT OF RAVEN ROBERTS WITH A RUNNING KNEE TO THE HEAD AS HE QUICKLY GOES FOR THE PIN!!!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTWWWOOO!!!

James Peters: RAVEN KICKS OUT! Ripley with a look of frustration on his face as he gets to his feet now. Raven slowly getting up as Jack is concisely thinking about his next move. He pulls Raven up and fires a quick forearm wasting no time trying to knock her down once more. But Raven slowly starting to stiffen up and fight back as she starts to land a few punches of her own down on Ripley getting some offense in. Yet Ripley is slowly pushing her to the ropes as Raven tries her best to fend him off! Raven finally getting the majority of the punches in as Jack finally gets stopped in his tracks! RAVEN FIRES A KNEE RIGHT TO THE GUT OF JACK! RAVEN KICKING JACK MAKING HIM FALL FLAT TO THE GROUND!

Rich Russillo: This match is starting to slow down now as both of them slowly become more exhausted. Ripley getting up to his feet as Raven moves in! RAVEN KICKING JACK RIPLEY RIGHT THE CHEST AGAIN!

Rich Russillo: It looks like Raven isnt done as she goes to the top rope! She looks to fly! RAVEN’S WINGS- NO! JACK GETS THE KNEES UP! RAVEN ROLLS AROUND IN PAIN AS RIPLEY PULLS HER UP IN PAIN! DOUBLE KNEE BACKBREAKER!!! RIPLEY GOING FOR THE PIN!!!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTWWWOOO!!!

TTTHHHRRR-

James Peters: RAVEN GETS THE SHOULDER UP! Jack Ripley quickly sits up as even he can’t believe it! What’s it gonna take to put Raven Roberts for good?! Ripley sits up as he’s trying to fully realize what’s happened so far! Ripley grabbing Raven and pulling her up- RAVEN! SCHOOLBOY! RAVEN PUSHES RIPLEY AWAY AS SHE RUNS! TALON!!!

TTTWWWOOO!!!

TTTHHHRRREEE!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(“Mark My Words” plays up to cheers as Raven stumbles up to her feet and the Ref raises her hand in victory and gives her the Universal Women’s Championship. She raises it in the air to cheers as the Ref tends to Jack Ripley who has sat up and is shocked about the results of this match.)

Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner… THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION, RAVEN ROBERTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rich Russillo: :wow: What a match. It was hard to see who was gonna pull out the win throughout this match but at the end of the day Raven caught Ripley off guard and pulled off the win!

James Peters: Think about this for Jack Ripley, if Raven Roberts beat her, could this possibly be a preview for Wicked Games? I’m sure Jack is going to prevent that as much as possible, but the possibilities are endless! The female half of the McAllister household silenced the RIP Daddy and his trash talk tonight!

(Raven rolls out of the ring and interacts with the crowd members signing things and taking pictures as the camera then cuts to Jack Ripley in the ring. He’s visibly frustrated as he rolls out of the ring still not wanting to believe that Raven got the win over him. The last shot is of Raven holding up her Championship as the camera fades.)

(The camera shot reopens to an undisclosed location. The room is dark except for a purple light that is illuminating the Unified Tag Team Champions, Constance Blevins and Minerva. The women, who were victorious last night at Reasonable Doubt, have smiles on their faces and their belts on their shoulders.)

Constance Blevins: Last night, Heavenly Hell did exactly what we said we would do, and that is defeat the team of Lance Blackfyre and Lucas Johnson. Those two were never really competition for us, just like the other challengers for these straps haven’t been. It should have surprised no one to see Blackfyre go to sleep last night, and for Lucas to go crawl back into whatever hole he crawled out of. These tag team championships, as great as they are, have never been the standard to which Minerva and I hold ourselves too. They aren’t meant to be our peak and they most certainly won’t be what defines us when all is done. I will never be the type of competitor that remains content. I want to reach for the stars, and see how far I can go. At Wicked Games, fresh off another championship defense, I have a chance to do what few have done, and that is become a double champion here in Elite Answers Wrestling.

(Constance flicks her dark locks off one pale shoulder and the look on her face is a serious one. Her voice is full of confidence with every word that she speaks.)

Constance Blevins: Sienna Jade is the last person who stands out to me a double championship holder. Is anyone surprised that someone who looks like Sienna got that kind of opportunity? I could stand here and debate whether or not she was ever deserving of both the Unified Tag Team Championships and the Women’s World Championship, but my opponent next weekend is not Sienna Jade. My opponent is a ghost from my past, someone I had the opportunity to step up to and stop before, but instead I took a different route. I wasn’t sure if my path would cross Raven’s again this early, but here we are. One week away from me stepping into the ring against my old foe, the woman who left my former friends broken and battered in the middle of the ring, and I have the chance to strip her of the Universal Women’s Championship she’s waited so long for. The proper attention has never been paid to Minerva and I, but that comes to a stop next weekend. We know the tag team that we want on Showdown, and I know the championship I’m determined to win come Wicked Games.

(Constance and Minerva exchange smiles with one another.)

Constance Blevins: Minerva and I are proud to be different; proud to march to the beat of our drum. We strive to continue carrying ourselves with dignity no matter what hand gets dealt to us. We will never fit anyone’s vision of what a marketable face is. When I do win the Universal Women’s Championship, I don’t expect my face to be plastered on the posters and advertisements. I’m well aware that a silicone stuffed blonde Barbie is the face of the ad campaigns more often than not around here, but I’m not going to let something like that deter me from achieving a goal, and that goal is becoming a world champion. I won’t be ignored with that championship around my waist, and my tag team championship on my shoulder, and neither will my partner. I’m sure they’ll find a way to undercut us and refuse to give us the Jaded Hearts’ treatment, but here’s the thing with that. Minerva and I are we are connected with ourselves and with one another, and we are both looking at the bigger picture. We know that change doesn’t happen overnight and that we have to take this one step at a time. The bigger picture is that Heavenly Hell is about to become the surest thing going in Elite Answers Wrestling, and Constance Blevins is going to take that championship from Raven Roberts.

(Constance’s smile turns into a full fledged smirk.)

Constance Blevins: Something wicked comes this way, Raven, and you should know that Minnie and I more than just tricks and spells. You claim that sort of thing doesn’t work on you, but it’s nothing that you didn’t deserve for all the sins you have committed in your past. We got a good laugh at your expense, and that’s what really matters when it comes to what we did to you last week. I need this match more than you do. You have been catered to, whether you see that or not. You were given a license to run wild on Empire, hurting anyone placed in your path, and it’s time for me to rectify the fact that once upon a time, I let you get to me. Next Saturday night, you are going to feel the humiliation, anger, frustration, and pain that I’ve gone through since being here in EAW. Once I dispose of you and put a premature end to your celebrated first world championship reign, I’ll eradicate the past and close the book on those Empire chapters forever. I’ll see you soon, little bird.

(The purple light in the room flicks off, engulfing Heavenly Hell in darkness.)

(The camera cuts back to the ringside area, and to Raven. She had stopped onstage to watch Constance’s video and there’s a smile on her face. Once again, the Universal Women’s Champion raises her title in the air.)

Raven Roberts (Off Mic): Be careful what you wish for Constance. Be careful what you wish for.

(Raven disappears to the back and Voltage fades to commercial break.)

(Commercial break for Broad Street Bakery and their Jumbo Honey Buns. If you think you have the flu, a honey bun is probably the last thing you should eat.)

(Voltage returns and cuts right to the ringside area. Popular EAW personality and REVOLT GOAT, Talib Bari, is inside the ring. He’s surrounded by another lavish ‘Cloth Talk’ set, and he’s grinning from ear to ear. The crowd is cheering for him because honestly, who doesn’t love Talib?! As always, Talib has his trademark gold microphone and he once he raises it to his mouth, the crowd quiets down.)

Talib Bari: Yo. It’s been a hot minute since I got a chance to host one of these shows! I know y’all probably think we got cancelled, but I promise you that couldn’t be further from the truth! You see, your boy is a busy man, and I been doin’ some travelin’, seeing the world, all that gud shit. I went to Dubai. Ya know, EAW is set to present their next supershow from there; Christmas in Dubai. Lemme tell ya, that place is nothing short of incredible! I had the time of my life up in some Dubai, and whether the company knows it or not, they taking me back whenever they go there the week of Christmas. That’s on God.

Talib Bari: Iight, so my boy, Jesse, finds himself with a little Interwire Championship contendership match coming up at Wicked Games. Now, it was just supposed to be against the lil spitfire Sarah Price, but ole boy kinda got himself in some shit with Shortfuse PAKA, and who the hell even knows how this match is gunna go down now?! Yo, I know one thing, though. Sarah, that girl is a much needed ray of sunshine. Jesse might be my boy and a repeat guest here on ‘Cloth Talk’, but I’m not sure if I believe he should be corrupting lil Sarah! So check it, I get what Jesse is doing. He wants this world to be a better place, and he can’t do it alone. That smoke show Hannah Marin is certainly seems keen to spread Jesse’s word, or get the peen. Yo, I’m not about judge because she could get some of this to if she wanted :mjlit:

Talib Bari: Sarah been thwarting Jesse for awhile now, not even giving him a chance. I think she see through the bullshit and got her own ideas on how to make this place better, but tonight, Ima give them both the chance to come out here and have a lil face to face before their match with PAKA coming up at Wicked Games. So let’s go ahead and bring Sarah out first!

(‘Land of the Innocent’ by Feathers begins to play the crowd gives Sarah Price a huge ovation as she walks down to the ring. The happy-go-lucky blonde climbs inside the ring and shakes hands with Talib, after officially meeting him.)

Talib Bari: So Sarah, this dude been tryin’ to get you suckered into his agenda. Why aren’t you bought in?

(Sarah has taken a regular microphone from the sleek black table, because only Talib gets gold, and smirks.)

Sarah Price: There is nothing to buy in too. Jesse Barlow is a fraud and I don’t believe anything that comes out of his mouth. I don’t wanna sound rude or anything like that, but this guy is definitely someone that I do not trust. He comes off as very self-righteous and very self-serving, and I don’t like the way he has gotten involved in my business at all. Last week, PAKA and I were tearing down the house until Jesse and his minion got involved, and cost me a victory that I certainly deserved.

Talib Bari: How you feel about PAKA getting added to the Interwire Championship contendership match?

Sarah Price: I think it’s pretty great given everything that’s gone down in recent weeks. I doubt PAKA is happy with his tainted victory over me, and this triple threat gives us all an even playing field. There won’t be any disqualifications or any reason for someone to try trickery. I know Jesse will try to cheat, but anything goes for PAKA and myself as well. I’m looking forward to Wicked Games and I can’t wait to teach Jesse a lesson, and show PAKA that his ‘bar of excellence’ is something I can easily surpass when things are fair.

Talib Bari: :wow: Spoken like a future GOAT here in EAW.

(“The Path” by Senses Fail begins to play and when Jesse and Hannah emerge, the crowd really begins to jeer. They don’t like these two whatsoever, but neither one seem to mind. Hannah picks up a microphone for Jesse and hands it to him.)

Jesse Barlow: Sarah, life isn’t fair.

(The crowd begins to boo even louder.)

Jesse Barlow: Tell me, how is it fair that little Timmy Stapleton from Toms River, New Jersey, found out just last week that he only has 6 months to live because his body is being ravaged by a rare form of childhood cancer? Tell me how is it fair that young families pawn their elders off in nursing homes to be abused by their so-called caretakers and forgotten about by those who are their blood family? Tell me, how is it fair that a woman like Consuela Rose Ava can adopt a child for media purposes and use the child to gain favor and get herself over with the fans? This world is a sick, sick place, Sarah, and you are so blind. You are so naive. I’ve been trying to open your eyes and show you that this little back and forth with Shortfuse PAKA and myself is something completely irrelevant to the truth, and the truth is, all of us are bigger than this. What is the purpose of some gold trinket? Self validation should not come in the form of objects, money, and championship belts. You should be able to look yourself in the mirror and be proud of what you see regardless of what accolades you rack up, or belts you might get ‘lucky’ enough to hold. Your potential is limitless and even though you have been subordinate the last few weeks; ignoring my offers and picking fights with my precious Hannah. I am willing to let bygones be bygones and give you one more chance to change your mind and join us instead of going through with this match. Give me a chance, Sarah.

Talib Bari: :lupe: Sarah, are you going to give Jesse a chance?

(The crowd is screaming ‘NO’ at Sarah. They absolutely do not want to see her get wrapped up in Jesse Barlow and his agenda. The blonde looks conflicted and nibbles on her bottom lip. She checks with the crowd and they are not at all happy that Sarah is even entertaining this!)

Talib Bari: :lupe:

(The sounds of James and Rich come floating through to describe what happens next!)

James Peters: SARAH JUST SLAPPED THE SHIT OUT OF JESSE BARLOW!

Rich Russillo: HANNAH INSTANTLY ATTACKS HER AND SPEARS SARAH INTO THE CORNER! HANNAH IS LOOKING TO UNLOAD THOSE RIGHT HANDS ON SARAH BUT LOOK AT JESSE! JESSE IS GRABBING HANNAH AND PULLING HER AWAY! :wtf:

(Jesse drags Hannah away from Sarah and starts whispering in her ear. The calm and soothing tone of Jesse’s voice seems to do its job, and Hannah takes a deep breath to calm herself. Over in the corner, Sarah is picking herself up and she’s staring daggers at Jesse and Hannah. The two have done nothing but provoke her, but to her credit, she is doing her best to stay calm. Jesse escorts Hannah to the ropes and helps her out of the ring, and then turns his attention Sarah. Talib has gotten out of the ring, so it’s only two of the three potential championship challengers.)

Jesse Barlow: This anger that you have is festering and it’s because you are slowly allowing yourself to get swept away by greed. This business has the ability to break a person and you striking me just now is a prime example of how you’re starting to slip away. You need to fight and find the good in your heart again, and wrap that around yourself, and use it as a shield. That good in you, and that potential, that is what I want to cultivate and grow. Hannah came to me so far gone and I helped her. I took her hand and put her on the right path, and she has never been better. Sweet Sarah, listen to me. Join me. Let me help you find th-

James Peters: SHORTFUSE PAKA! SHORTFUSE PAKA! PAKA JUST DROPPED JESSE! NO DOUBT THAT’S REVENGE FROM EARLIER TONIGHT! PAKA IS PULLING UP JESSE, BUT JESSE IS TRYING TO FEND HIM OFF! PAKA SHOVES JESSE BACK AND OH MY GAWD! KNOCKOUT HEADBUTT! HE JUST CAUGHT JESSE UNDER THE CHIN AND JESSE IS DOWN!

Rich Russillo: PAKA has just turned his attention to Sarah, who holds up her hands. PAKA is breathing hard but Sarah is looking at him with a smile! These two have been through a lot but look at that! Sarah nods at the damage done to Jesse and slips out of the ring! PAKA stares at her before a smile breaks across his face! These two want nothing more than to have one more match against one another and that’s going to happen next weekend at Wicked Games!

(Sarah and PAKA continue to stare at one another before Sarah turns and heads up the ramp. PAKA looks down at Jesse and spits, which sends Voltage to commercial break.)

(Commercial break for cheese.)

James Peters: Welcome back to Voltage! Up next we have a triple threat match for the Big Boogie Bhampionship!! But not not just any triple threat match…A falls count anywhere match, between Shawn Sturgis Jr., The Woogieman, and Zak “The Machine” Simmons!! I can’t wait for this epic clash, let’s get right into it!!

(Crowd appear very noisy before the match even starts.)

Rich Russillo: I have to agree with you James, even this packed arena can’t wait to see this tremendous bout!

Bella Braxton: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A TRIPLEEEE THREEEEAAAAT MATCHHHHHH,IT IS A FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH AND IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!

(Crowd repeat “ONE FALL!”)

Bella Braxton: IT IS FOR THE EAW BIG BOOOOGIEEEEE BHAMPIONSHIIIPPPP!!!!

(‘HeadStrong’ rings throughout the arena as Shawn Strugis Jr. appears on the stage.)

Rich Russillo: This man could easily walk out of here tonight as a bhampion, he’s intelligent, athletic and motivated, he has all the tools!! He’s going up against two very hungry competitors though, he’ll need all the motivation one can have.

James Peters: Completely agreed, but I have a feeling he isn’t afraid to do whatever it takes to walk out of here with that Big Boogie title around his waist.

(Crowd once again showing a tremendous reaction for Shawn Sturgis.)

James Peters: This crowd is absolutely electric tonight, they are just as excited as we are for this match!

Bella Braxton: AND FROM RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIAAAAA…WEIGHING IN AT 199 POUNDS …THE FRESH PRINCE OF MID AIR…SHAWN STURGISS JJJRRRRR!!!!

(‘Catch Hell’ sounds throughout the arena as the Voltage crowd breaks out in a chorus of boos, Zak Simmons enters to a symphony of curses and boos.)

James Peters: My god…the pure disdain the fans have for this man is immeasurable, they truly hate him with a passion.

Rich Russillo: For what reason I have no idea. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you may not agree with his methods and you may not like his tactics..but you cannot deny his pure potential and results. Zak Simmons is a winner and could very easily take the cake tonight and win the jackpot.

James Peters: I understand the disdain, his so called “methods” are just cheap ways of winning and proof of self doubt, but I can’t disagree with his results.

Bella Braxton: AND THEIR OPPONENT…WRESTLING OUT OF LEXINGTON, KENTUCKYYYYY….WEIGHING 245 POUNDS…. THE MACHINNEEEE, ZAAAAAAK SIMMMOOOONNSSSSS!!!

James Peters: All three men look war ready, they’re going to have to push themselves to a place they have never been before in order to come away with that Big Boogie Bhampionship!

Rich Russillo: All three are credible contenders, all three are prolific competitors, all three could walk out of here tonight as a champion!!!

(‘If Ya Smell’ begins to play as The Woogieman struts onto the Voltage Stage!)

Bella Braxton: INTRODUCING FIRST, WRESTLING OUT OF JACKSONVILEEE, FLORIDAAA….WEIGHING IN AT 265 POUNDS….HE IS THEEEEE BIIG BOOGIE BHAMPION….TTTHHEE WOOOGIIIIEEEMANNNNN!!!

James Peters: THIS ARENA IS GOING ABSOLUTELY NUTS FOR THE WOOGIEMAN, IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU’RE A MALE OR FEMALE, WOOGIE IS WOOGIE!!

(The Voltage crowd are ecstatic to see Woogie and gave him a tremendous reaction.)

Rich Russillo: The energy this man brings is incredible, he draws an absolutely unbelievable reaction out of the crowd and those watching at home. The praise and love that he gets is just through the roof, James!

James Peters: That’s for good reason Rich, he’s the goat!! Anyways, lets jump right into the action!!

(Referee signals for the timekeeper)

(DING! DING! DING!)

James Peters: IT’S ON! All three men ready to ro-SHAWN STURGIS EXPLODES OUT OF THE CORNER, FLYING AT ZAK SIMMONS WITH A RUNNING HURRICANRANA!! MY GOD WHAT ATHLETICISM, SHAWN STURGIS PLAYING ABSOLUTELY NO GAMES TONIGHT!! Simmons quickly rolls outside, avoiding any further attack from Sturgis, who turns his attention to The Woogieman. Shawn Sturgis has not forgotten the beating Woogie put on him after that brutal Cage match a few weeks back, Shawn Sturgis has been waiting for this moment for a long time!

RIch Russillo: Woogie doesn’t want any piece of Shawn right now, he WISELY rolls out of the ring…wait he’s not going to be safe out there either! Zak Simmons is back to is feet and has his eyes on Woogie, a contagious stare of malice from Simmons, he also has not forgotten the trouble Woogie has given him the past several weeks. Woogie’s trying to reason with both men, pleading for any possible alliance he can, BOTH MEN CHARGE IN WITH A POTENTIAL CLOTHESLINE…WOOGIE AVOIDS IT AND SIMMONS AND SHAWN COLLIDE HARD!!! WHAT A RIB CRACKING COLLISION BETWEEN BOTH MEN, SOMEHOW WOOGIE WALKS AWAY UNSCATHED!!

Rich Russillo: WHAT A BRILLIANT MANEUVER!! Woogie needs to take advantage, there’s no time to bask in the glory of the moment. He appears to be doing so, lifting Simmons back up to his feet, with a smile on his face…WOOGIE AIMS FOR ANOTHER MOVE, HE’S GOT HIM SET UP…AN IRISH WHIP- WAIT A REVERSAL FROM ZAK SIMMONS AS HE LAUNCHES WOOGIE FACE FIRST INTO THE RING POST!! Woogie’s attempting to move, clawing his way up the ramp as Simmons is slowly stalking him, like a lion with its prey… SHAWN STURGIS BACK UP TO HIS FEET AS HE BLASTS SIMMONS FROM BEHIND, THEN HE RIPS WOOGIE TO HIS FEET AND SENDS HIM FLYING WITH AN OVERHEAD SUPLEX!!! ON THE RAMP, MY GOD!! THIS CONTEST IS ALREADY SPILLING ALL OVER THE PLACE!!

James Peters: Shawn Sturgis showing no mercy tonight, he’s had enough of both men, and he’s ready to take that bhampionship for himself! SIMMONS BACK UP TO HIS FEET AND HE DROPS SHAWN STURGIS ON THE STAGE WITH A SPINE SHIVERING SAMOAN DROP!! THESE MEN OFFERING NO QUARTER, BUT DID WE REALLY EXPECT ANYTHING LESS?!?! Zak Simmons is leading the pack now, he’s in charge of this match currently, he’s got malice in his heart and murder on his mind..He bears an evil smile on his face as he looks in the direction of both men…BUT HE’S GOING TO GO AFTER SHAWN ONCE AGAIN…COME ON ZAK! SIMMONS GRABS A HANDFUL OF HAIR, PRYING AND SHOVING SHAWN BACK UP TO HIS KNEES…THEN HE GIVES HIM A HUGE SLAP, RIGHT TO THE FACE!! AND AGAIN AND AGAIN, HE SMACKS HIM REPEATEDLY ACROSS THE FACE, A BLATANT SHOW OF IGNORANCE AND DISRESPECT…THAT WASN’T A WISE MOVE, SHAWN STURGIS APPEARS MORE INFRARED AND DRIVEN WITH EACH SLAP…

Rich Russillo: SHAWN NOW LAUNCHES UP AT ZAK SIMMONS, FISTS AND ELBOWS SLASHING EVERYWHERE, SIMMONS IS FIGHTING BACK, IT’S A FRENZY OF STRIKES, MY GOD IT’S A HOCKEY FIGHT!!! THE BRAWL WON’T STOP, BOTH MEN UNRELENTING AND RELEASING MONTHS WORTH OF RAGE AND FRUSTRATION OUT ON EACH OTHER, THEY ARE READY TO FINISH THEIR WAR TONIGHT!! NEITHER MAN WILLING TO LET THE OTHER HAVE THE UPPER HAND, BOTH WILLING TO DIE IF IN ORDER TO KILL THE OTHER! SIMMONS TRYING FOR A SPINEBUSTER…STURGIS COUNTERS INTO A GUILLOTINE CHOKE!!! THAT GUILLOTINE IS IN TIGHT, SIMMONS IS GOING TO FADE SOON!! HE’S QUICKLY GOING OUT, HE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING NOW…HE HAS NO OTHER OPTIONS …A SPINEBUSTER ON THE STAGE!!! A SPINEBUSTER PLANTING STURGIS DOWN, BUT SIMMONS CRUSHED HIS OWN SKULL IN THE PROCESS!!

James Peters: I believe Shawn Sturgis got the better of that exchange, as he seems to be moving…WAIT…WOOGIE’S BACK IN THIS, HE’S BACK IN THIS FIGHT, HE WANTS THE TITLE AND HE WAS WAITING FOR HIS CHANCE TO TAKE IT, NOW COULD BE THAT CHANCE FOR THE WOOGIEMAN! WOOGIE SIGNALING FOR SHAWN TO RISE TO HIS FEET, HE IS AMPING UP THE CROWD…

(The Crowd is exploding with excitement and joy in support of Woogie, chanting “GOAT! GOAT! GOAT!”)

James Peters: HE IS THE GOAT! WOOGIE HAS SOMETHING BIG PLANNED…THE WOOGIEMAN…SETTING SHAWN UP …HE CUTS STURGIS IN HALF WITH A WICKEDDD SPEAARRRRRR!!!! A SPEAR CLICKING SHAWN STURGIS RIGHT IN HALF, DESTROYING THE LITTLE LIFE SHAWN HAD LEFT, THIS IS IT!! THIS IS WOOGIE’S CHANCE!

Rich Russillo: WOOGIE KNOWS HE NEEDS TO FINISH THIS NOW, WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING…WAIT, HE’S GOING FOR A SUBMISSION, THE CLOVERLEAF…HE’S GOT IT, BUT HE CAN’T FULLY LOCK IT IN, SHAWN IS RESISTING, FIGHTING BACK AGAINST WOOGIE…SHAWN STURGIS BITING, YES BITING WOOGIE, DOING ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING HE CAN TO PREVENT WOOGIE FROM LOCKING THE CLOVERLEAF IN, IF HE DOES IT WILL SURELY BE THE END…WOOGIE WILL NOT LET STURGIS OFF EASILY, VICIOUS STOMPS RIGHT TO THE CHEST, NECK, AND FACE OF SHAWN!! WOOGIE’S SHOWING US JUST HOW VICIOUS HE CAN BE!!

James Peters: THESE STOMPS TAKING EVERYTHING OUT OF SHAWN, SNUFFING OUT THE LIGHT AND FIGHT IN SHAWN’S BODY…HE’S GOING FOR IT AGAIN, ATTEMPTING TO ROLL SHAWN OVER INTO …THE CLOVERLEAF, IT’S IN AND IT’S IN DEEP!! THERE’S NOWHERE FOR SHAW TO GO, ALONE ON THE STAGE, STRANDED WITH NO HELP TO COME, THIS IS SURELY IT …HE CAN’T HOLD ON FOR MUCH LONGER, THE BACK AND BODY OF SHAWN BEING DESTROYED WITH THIS MANEUVER, AFTER SUCH A BRUTAL UNDERTAKING, HOW CAN HE WITHSTAND ANY MORE!!!! HE WANTS TO KEEP FIGHTING, HE WANTS TO WIN THAT TITLE…BUT THIS IS SURELY THE END, HE CAN’T WITHSTAND THIS ANY LONGER..WAIT..HE’S FADING, THE PAIN IS TOO MUCH…HE’S GOING TO PASS OUT, WHICH WILL ALSO END THE MATCH..WOOGIE RETAI-

Rich Russillo: WAIT!

James Peters: SIMMONS INTERRUPTS AT THE VERY LAST SECOND, TOPPLING THE SEA OF BODIES!!! MY GOD SIMMONS JUST SAVED THIS MATCH AND THAT TITLE, HE WASN’T ABOUT TO LET IT SLIP FROM HIS GRASP!!

Rich Russillo: WOOGIE LOOKS SHAKEN, HE KNOWS HE WAS SO CLOSE TO KEEPING THE BHAMPIONSHIP, THEN TO HAVE IT RIPPED AWAY FROM HIM AT THE FINAL MOMENT…HE WON’T LET THAT GO, HE IS ABOUT TO END ZAK SIMMONS ONCE AND FOR ALL HERE TONIGHT…WOOGIEMAN SETTING ZAK UP FOR THAT BRAINBUSTER THAT HAS FINISHED MANY MEN…WOOGIE ABOUT TO STAKE HIS CLAIM AS THE FACE OF E-WAIT SIMMONS ESCAPES AND NAILS A BRAINBUSTER OF HIS OWN ON THE RAMP, THAT’S WOOGIE’S MOVE!!! SIMMONS COULD END IT HERE WITH WOOGIES OWN MOVE, THE NERVE!!

(Crowd heavily boo Zak Simmons and chant for Woogie to get back up and keep fighting…)

Rich Russillo: SIMMONS MOMENT IS HERE, HIS MOMENT IS NOW, HE LIFTS WOOGIE UP…AND HE DROPS HIM WITH A GTS, A KNEE RIGHT TO THE CHINE, HE SLEPT HIM!!! SIMMONS WASTING NO TIME AT ALL LIFTS WOOGIE BACK TO HIS KNEES FOR A FINAL TIME, HE SIGNALS A THROAT SLASH TO END THE MATCH…SIMMONS WITH THE ELITTEEEEE ENDINGGG!!! MY GOD, HE NAILED WOOGIE WITH THE ELITE ENDING, RIGHT TO THE JAW OF WOOGIE, THIS IS THE END!!! SIMMONS IS GOING TO CLAIM IT, HE GOES IN FOR THE PIN…

(ONEEEEEEEE…)

(TWWWOOOOOO…)

(THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE…)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER AND NEW EAW BIG BOOGIE BHAMPION …ZAAAAAAKKKKKKKK “THE MACHIIIIIIINEEEEEE” SIMMONSSSSSS!!!!

(Crowd uprorious with boos, cursing and chanting “BULLSHIT, BULLSHIT, BULLSHIT!!!”)

(Bella Braxton heads over to Zak Simmons for an interview…)

Bella Braxton: Zak, congratulations on your victory! How does it feel to know you are the brand new EA-

Zak Simmons: SHUT UP! ALL OF YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTHS! I NEVER NEEDED ANY OF YOU PIGS!! ALL OF YOU LOSERS BOOING ME RIGHT NOW WILL BE SCRAMBLING TO MEET ME AT THE AIRPORT! FUCK ALL OF YOU AND ANYONE WHO DOESNT LIKE ME CAN SUCK MY DICK!!

James Peters: Well…that was crude.

Rich Russillo: Is he lying, James?

James Peters: With Simmons as champion we’re all in for a living hell.

(The camera catches shots of Woogie and Shawn, both look pretty frustrated at the outcome of the match. Zak Simmons has gotten the Big Boogie Bhampionship in his hands, and that’s not a good thing!)

(Voltage fades to break.)

(Commercial break for cheating featuring the Green Bay Packers, and fuck Aaron Rodgers too.)

(When Voltage returns, we cut to Bella for the final time tonight.)

Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen.. The following is a LADDER MATCH, and it is for the SPECIALISTS CHAMPIONSHIP!!! Introducing first…

(‘We Own the Night’ by Hollywood Undead hits and the crowd begins raining down boos as Serena Riot makes her way out to the stage with Veena Adams behind her. The presence of Veena only makes the boos even louder, but the two don’t seem to care about the hostile reaction as they make their way down the ramp.)

Bella Braxton: Making her way to the ring…. Accompanied by Veena Adams… From Cleveland, Ohio… Weighing in at 150 pounds… THE FALLEN PROPHET, SERENA RIOT!!!

James Peters: Tonight may just be the biggest match of Serena Riot’s career, as she gets a one on one match against Andrea Valentine for the Specialists Championship! This could be a huge win for Serena, but it being a ladder match is just going to make things more difficult.

Rich Russillo: Seriously James? Maybe for Andrea it will, but Serena has Veena Adams on her side. This is a no DQ match, so Veena could get involved as much as she pleases. If anything, she could play a huge role in Serena becoming champion, which is what I think is going to happen.

James Peters: Well there’s no doubt that Veena will get involved. However, this wouldn’t be the first time Andrea gets involved with her. I doubt it’ll be the last either.

(‘Roll With Me’ by Charli XCX hits and the crowd immediately start cheering despite the previous reaction, as Andrea Valentine makes her way out to the stage. There’s no questioning the focused look on her face as she keeps a close eye on both Serena Riot, and Veena Adams, as she walks down to the ring.)

Bella Braxton: And her opponent…. From Orlando, Florida… Weighing in at 110 pounds… She is the EAW Specialists Champion, ANDREA VALENTINE!!!!

James Peters: It’s very unfortunate that this match could quickly turn into a handicap match for Andrea, but knowing her, I think she can still do this. Andrea has been here a lot longer, and has been through a lot more than Serena has. Let’s not forget, she just won the War Games match at Territorial Invasion a few months ago.

Rich Russillo: No, her team won the match. Tonight, she doesn’t have a team. Serena has Veena Adams. Do you really think the numbers game won’t help Serena?

James Peters: Don’t get me wrong, I think Veena will be a huge assist to Serena. I’m just question how much help Veena will be to her in the long run.

Rich Russillo: Well, they both have one thing in common. They want Andrea to lose. It’s clear we’re not going to see eye to eye on this, so let’s start this match and see what happens.

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

James Peters: And this match is now unde- SERENA RIOT WITH A RUNNING DROPKICK! ANDREA VALENTINE WAS JUST SENT THROUGH THE ROPES WITH A HUGE RUNNING DROPKICK TO START THIS MATCH OFF, AND LOOK AT THAT! VEENA ADAMS IS BRINGING THE LADDER INTO THE RING FOR SERENA! THE MATCH LITERALLY JUST STARTED AND SERENA RIOT MAY ALREADY HAVE IT WON AS SHE TRIES TO SET UP THE LADDER!

Rich Russillo: NO! ANDREA SPRINTING BACK INTO THE RING, AND THERE’S A DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN, AND NOW ANDREA IS ALL OVER SERENA RIOT! ANDREA WITH THESE REPEATED PUNCHES TO SERENA, AND WHAT A START TO THE MATCH THIS HAS BEEN AS ANDREA PICKS SERENA UP AND TOSSES HER OUT OF THE RING! ANDREA NOW PICKING UP THE LADDER AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE SHE’S READY TO SET IT UP- BUT LOOK! VEENA ADAMS IS GRABBING THE LEG OF ANDREA! ANDREA MANAGING TO KICK VEENA OFF OF HER- BUT NOW LOOK WHO’S BACK!

James Peters: SERENA IS BACK IN THIS MATCH AND SHE JUST DUMPED ANDREA OVER THE TOP ROPE! UNLIKE THE PREVIOUS TIME SHE’S NOT GOING FOR THE LADDER THOUGH! INSTEAD SHE’S RUNNING THE ROPES- AND OH MY GOD! ANDREA CAUGHT SERENA BY THE LEGS AND JUST DRAGGED HER OUT OF THE RING FROM UNDER THE BOTTOM ROPE! ANDREA NOW IS TAKING THE FIGHT TO SERENA, SERENA ISN’T DOING TOO GOOD HERE AS ANDREA IS LASHING OUT ON THE FALLEN PROPHET! HUGE FOREARM STRIKE BY ANDREA!

Rich Russillo: ANDREA CLIMBING ONTO THE BARRICADE TRYING TO GET BACK INTO THE RING NOW- BUT SERENA GRABS HER LEG, AND PULLS HER RIGHT OFF THE APRON, CAUSING ANDREA’S FACE TO CONNECT WITH IT, AND THERE’S A KNEE STRIKE TO THE FACE, JUST AS ANDREA WAS TEMPORARILY DEFENSELESS!! SERENA NOT RE-ENTERING THE RING YET THOUGH, SHE SEEMS TO HAVE REALIZED SHE’S GONNA HAVE TO TAKE ANDREA OUT IF SHE WANTS TO WIN THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPIONSHIP AS SHE BEGINS BEATING THE CHAMPION ALL AROUND THE RING!

James Peters: THIS DOESN’T LOOK TOO GOOD AS SERENA IS RELENTLESS HERE, AND YOU CAN TELL VEENA LOVES THIS- BUT THERE’S AN ELBOW TO THE JAW BY ANDREA! ANDREA LEANING ON THE BARRICADE AS SERENA TRIES TO CHARGE BACK IN TOWARDS HER- BUT SHE RUNS RIGHT INTO A BOOT! ANDREA NOW GRABBING SERENA BY THE HEAD AND RUNNING OFF OF THE BARRICADE, TORNADO DDT BY THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION OUTSIDE OF THE RING!! Andrea taking a look at the ladder inside of the ring, and it looks like she’s ready to try and set it up!

Rich Russillo: VEENA JUST PUSHED ANDREA INTO THE RING POST! ANDREA FORGOT ABOUT VEENA FOR A SECOND AND IT COST HER AS ANDREA WAS JUST SENT FACE FIRST INTO THE POST! I THINK WE ALL KNEW VEENA WOULD GET INVOLVED IN THIS MATCH, AND NOW SERENA IS GETTING THE BENEFITS OF IT AS VEENA HELPS HER BACK INTO THE RING! SERENA NOW FINALLY SETTING UP THE LADDER, IS THIS MATCH ALREADY COMING TO A CLOSE!?

James Peters: NO! ANDREA JUST TOOK VEENA OUT WITH A RUNNING BLOCKBUSTER, AND NOW SHE’S RUNNING BACK INTO THE RING JUST AS SERENA CLIMBED THE LADDER! ANDREA PULLING SERENA OFF THE LADDER NOW- BUT SERENA LANDED ON HER FEET, AND NOW SHE HITS A SECOND KNEE STRIKE! SERENA TRYING TO CREATE SOME SPACE BY THROWING ANDREA OUT OF THE RING, BUT THE CHAMPION LANDS ON THE APRON! SERENA CHARGING TOWARDS HER- BUT THERE’S A FOREARM BY ANDREA! ANDREA NOW CLIMBING TO THE TOP ROPE, AND THERE’S A DIVING-

Rich Russillo: SERENA JUST THREW THE LADDER INTO ANDREA’S FACE! THE TOP OF THE LADDER LOOKS LIKE IT CONNECTED WITH ANDREA’S NOSE, AND NOW SERENA LOOKS LIKE SHE’S GONNA TRY CLIMBING AGAIN, BUT ANDREA IS STILL IN THE RING! EVEN SO, SERENA IS CLIMBING, AND IT LOOKS LIKE SHE MIGHT ACTUALLY MAKE IT! SERENA NOW REACHING FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP, IS SHE GONNA DO IT!? ARE WE GOING TO SEE A NEW SPECIALISTS CHAMPION!?

James Peters: NO! ANDREA IS STILL IN THIS AS SHE HITS SERENA IN THE BACK! SERENA IS STILL ON THE LADDER, BUT SHE’S SLOWLY CLIMBING DOWN AS ANDREA IS REPEATEDLY HITTING HER IN THE BACK! ANDREA NOW PULLING SERENA OFF THE LADDER, AND SERENA ATTEMPTED ANOTHER KNEE BUT ANDREA CAUGHT HER, AND NOW SHE JUST PULLED SERENA’S FACE INTO A KNEE OF HER OWN! ANDREA NOW PICKING SERENA UP, AND THERE’S A SNAP SUPLEX, TAKING DOWN THE FALLEN PROPHET!! SERENA IS DOWN, BUT ANDREA ISN’T AIMING TO CLIMB THE LADDER JUST YET!

Rich Russillo: No, instead she’s closing that ladder up, and placing it in the corner! Andrea now turning around- AND SERENA CHARGES IN, BUT THERE’S ANOTHER BOOT BY ANDREA! THAT COULD’VE BEEN BAD AS SERENA POSSIBLY COULD’VE PUT ANDREA THROUGH THAT LADDER, BUT ANDREA JUST MANAGED TO AVOID THAT! ANDREA NOW WITH AN IRISH WHIP INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER, AND NOW SHE CHARGES IN, RUNNING DROPKICK BY ANDREA! YOU COULD SEE VEENA GETTING FRUSTRATED AT THIS, BUT SHE NEEDS TO LOOK OUT AS ANDREA BEGINS RUNNING THE ROPES! BASEBALL SLIDE DROPKICK, TAKING VEENA OUT AS SHE’S SENT INTO THE BARRICADE!

James Peters: Andrea grabbing Veena now, AND SHE ONCE AGAIN SENDS HER INTO THE BARRICADE!! Better to take Veena out early to limit any distractions, but now it looks like Andrea has something in mind as she looks under the ring. Andrea now taking two ladders out, and only one of them she’s bringing into the ring! The other one, she’s putting one end onto the barricade, and the other on the apron! Andrea has made some sort of ladder bridge, and I’m honestly scared to see how that’s going to factor into this match! Andrea now re-entering the ring, and it looks like Serena is still down!

Rich Russillo: Andrea now with an irish whip to the ropes towards that ladder bridge, BUT SERENA HANGS ONTO THE ROPES AS ANDREA ATTEMPTED A DROPKICK! ANDREA QUICKLY GETTING UP AND CHARGING TOWARDS SERENA, BUT SERENA LIFTS HER OVER THE TOP ROPE! EVEN SO, ANDREA MANAGES TO LAND ON THE APRON AND BARELY AVOID THAT LADDER! SERENA TRYING TO GO FOR ANOTHER ATTACK BUT ANDREA BLOCKS A PUNCH BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A PUNCH OF HER OWN! ANDREA CLIMBING UP TO THE TOP ROPE ONCE AGAIN- BUT SERENA STOPS HER IN HER TRACKS!

James Peters: SERENA ATTACKING THE BACK OF ANDREA, AND IT LOOKS LIKE SHE’S CLIMBING UP AS WELL! ARE WE GONNA SEE A SUPERPLEX!? IT LOOKS LIKE SERENA IS SETTING UP FOR IT, BUT ANDREA IS TRYING TO FIGHT HER WAY OUT OF IT! ANDREA IS DOING EVERYTHING SHE CAN TO NOT LET SERENA HIT THAT SUPERPLEX, AND NOW SHE MANAGES TO SLIP DOWN FROM THE TOP ROPE, AND GRAB SERENA IN A POWERBOMB POSITION! ANDREA HAS HER UP ON HER SHOULDERS, AND IT LOOKS LIKE SHE HAS HER SIGHTS SET ON THE LADDER IN THE CORNER! ANDREA MAKING HER WAY TO THE CORNER, THIS COULD BE BAD!!

Rich Russillo: NO! SERENA NOW IS THE ONE FIGHTING OUT OF ANDREA’S GRASP! SERENA NOW MANAGING TO ESCAPE A POTENTIAL POWERBOMB, AND NOW SHE PUSHES ANDREA FACE FIRST INTO THE LADDER!! SERENA NOW GRABBING ANDREA BY THE BACK OF HER HEAD, AND SHE’S SLAMMING HER FACE REPEATEDLY INTO THAT LADDER!! ANDREA IS NEAR DEFENSELESS RIGHT NOW AS SERENA CONTINUOUSLY SLAMS HER FACE AGAINST THE LADDER! SERENA NOW PULLING ANDREA AWAY FROM THE LADDER, AND NOW THERE’S AN IRISH WHIP INTO THE LADDER, CAUSING ANDREA TO COLLAPSE!

James Peters: Serena picking Andrea up, and this time it’s her holding Andrea in the powerbomb position! Oh no! SERENA IS LOOKING TO POWERBOMB ANDREA INTO THE LADDER BRIDGE! ANDREA IS TRYING TO FIGHT OUT OF IT, AND YES! ANDREA’S GOT THE ROPES, AND SHE MANAGES TO HIT A HURRICANRANA SENDING SERENA OUT OF THE RING! BOTH COMPETITORS SOMEHOW MANAGED TO AVOID WHAT WOULD’VE BEEN A DISASTER FOR THEM, BUT NOW I WONDER WHERE THEY GO FROM HERE!

Rich Russillo: Serena managing to get back to her feet from that hurricanrana, BUT THERE’S A RUNNING METEORA OFF THE APRON BY ANDREA!! SERENA WAS JUST TAKEN OUT BY THAT HUGE METEORA, AND NOW ANDREA LOOKS LIKE SHE’S AIMING TO PICK SERENA UP, AND I DON’T LIKE WHERE THIS IS GOING AS THE TWO ARE RIGHT NEXT TO THE LADDER BRIDGE- OH MY GOD! VEENA WITH THE STEEL CHAIR!!

James Peters: VEENA ADAMS JUST HIT ANDREA VALENTINE IN THE BACK WITH A STEEL CHAIR, AND NOW SHE’S TRYING TO PUT ANDREA ONTO THE LADDER BRIDGE AS SERENA SLOWLY BEGINS TO CLIMB UP TO THE TOP ROPE! THIS IS BEYOND UNFAIR! THIS HAS BEEN ALMOST A HANDICAP MATCH FOR THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION, AND NOW SHE’S LAID OUT ON THE LADDER AS SERENA REACHES THE TOP!! DIVING MOONSAULT THROUGH THE LADDER!!! BOTH WOMEN ARE DOWN AND OUT, BUT YOU’VE GOT TO THINK SERENA HAS THIS MATCH WON AFTER SUCH A HUGE MOONSAULT!!

Rich Russillo: Veena is trying to help Serena back into the ring, which she successfully does, but that’s not going to help her at all if we’re being honest! After what we’ve just seen I don’t expect Serena to be able to get back to her feet yet, much less climb up the ladder and grab the title! Veena is yelling at Serena trying to encourage her to grab the title, but I don’t think encouragement is gonna help too much after putting yourself through a ladder!

(A few moments pass until Serena Riot gets back to her feet, with Veena Adams still cheering her on from ringside.)

James Peters: Serena slowly beginning to set that ladder up, and guys I think we may have a new Specialists Champion. Serena now slowly beginning to climb the ladder, and- OH MY GOD! ANDREA IS IN THE MATCH!! ANDREA IS STILL IN THIS ONE!! ANDREA JUST WHACKED VEENA WITH THAT BROKEN LADDER PIECE FROM BEHIND, AND NOW SHE’S BACK INTO THE RING!! ANDREA NOW, HITTING SERENA WITH THE BROKEN LADDER PIECE!! ANDREA ISN’T STOPPING THOUGH!! SERENA HAS FALLEN OFF THE LADDER, BUT ANDREA IS RELENTLESS AS SHE CONTINUES TO HIT SERENA OVER AND OVER WITH THE BROKEN HALF OF THE LADDER!

Rich Russillo: SERENA NOW ROLLING OUT OF THE RING, TRYING TO ESCAPE THE ASSAULT BUT NOW ANDREA LET’S GO OF THE LADDER PIECE AND BEGINS RUNNING THE ROPES!! SUICIDE DIVE BY ANDREA VALENTINE!!! ANDREA SLOWLY MANAGING TO GET TO HER FEET, BUT YOU CAN STILL SEE SHE’S FEELING THE EFFECTS OF THE MOONSAULT SHE RECEIVED A FEW MINUTES AGO!! EVEN SO, WHAT A HUGE SUICIDE DIVE BY ANDREA, AND NOW ANDREA HAS HER SIGHTS SET ON VEENA ADAMS, WHO IS BEGINNING TO BACK AWAY FROM THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION!

James Peters: It looks like Veena is trying to say she’s hurt, but honestly Rich I don’t buy it. It clearly looks like she’s trying to gain some sympathy from Andrea to stop a clear attack, BUT I DON’T THINK ANDREA BUYS IT EITHER AS THERE’S A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION! ANDREA NOW TRYING TO THROW VEENA INTO THE STEEL STEPS, BUT VEENA HOPS OVER THEM, AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE SHE’S TRYING TO ESCAPE THE WRATH OF THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION AS NOW IT’S A CHASE AROUND THE RING! VEENA NOW RUNNING PAST SERENA RIOT AS ANDREA FOLLOWS BEHIND-

Rich Russillo: BUT SERENA TAKES ANDREA OUT WITH THAT STEEL CHAIR VEENA USED EARLIER!! VEENA HAS FALLEN TO A KNEE LIKELY BOTH IN PAIN AND EXHAUSTION, BUT THAT DISTRACTION WAS ENOUGH TO GET SERENA RIOT BACK INTO THIS MATCH ONCE AGAIN! SERENA NOW PICKING ANDREA UP, AND THE FALLEN PROPHET RAMS THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION INTO THE RING APRON!! TO CALL THIS MATCH INCREDIBLY PHYSICAL, THAT’D BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT AS THESE TWO ARE DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES TO BECOME SPECIALISTS CHAMPION!

James Peters: Serena now grabbing that steel chair, and she’s wrapping it around the neck of Andrea! I don’t like this! Serena now grabbing Andrea, AND SHE SENDS HER INTO THE RINGPO- NO! ANDREA MANAGES TO STOP HERSELF! ANDREA NOW TURNING IT AROUND, AND SLAMMING SERENA’S FACE INTO THE RING POST! ANDREA NOW TAKING THE STEEL CHAIR OFF OF HER HEAD, AND NOW SHE’S GOING TO TOWN ON SERENA RIOT! HITTING HER WITH THE STEEL CHAIR AS MUCH AS SHE CAN! ANDREA IS RELENTLESS, AND RIGHTFULLY SO AS SHE’D DO WHATEVER SHE MUST IF IT MEANS RETAINING HER CHAMPIONSHIP!!

Rich Russillo: Neither competitor is in great shape right now, but even so they’re doing whatever they can to win and that’s what we’re seeing now as Andrea is beating Serena all around the ring with that steel chair! Serena though, USING ONE OF THE BROKEN LADDER PIECES TO KNOCK THE CHAIR OUT OF ANDREA’S HAND! SERENA NOW TOSSING AWAY THE LADDER PIECE, AND NOW THE TWO ARE BRAWLING IT OUT! SERENA AND ANDREA ARE TRADING HANDS OUTSIDE OF THE RING, WHO’S GONNA GET THE UPPER HAND!?

James Peters: SERENA! ANDREA! SERENA! ANDREA! THESE TWO ARE GOING BACK AND FORTH AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE NOT WILLING TO STOP! ANDREA WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION CAUSES SERENA TO STUMBLE A BIT! SERENA THOUGH, MANAGES TO RETALIATE WITH A KNIFE EDGE CHOP!! ANDREA NOW WITH A CHOP OF HER OWN! NOW SERENA! NOW ANDREA! NOW SERENA WITH A FOREARM! NOW ANDREA WITH A FOREARM! NEITHER COMPETITOR IS WILLING TO QUIT HERE, BUT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE SERENA IS GETTING THE UPPER HAND AS SHE CONTINUES TO HIT THESE FOREARMS!

Rich Russillo: SERENA NOW THROWING ANDREA BACK INTO THE RING, AND SHE SLIDES IN AS WELL BEFORE RUNNING THE ROPES, UNDER THE LADDER, AND THERE’S A HUGE BOOT TO THE FACE!! ANDREA IS DOWN ON ONE KNEE, AND SERENA NOW IS TRYING TO PICK HER UP- BUT ANDREA RAMS HER INTO THE TURNBUCKLES! LUCKY ENOUGH FOR SERENA IT WASN’T THE CORNER WITH THE LADDER, BUT THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE NONETHELESS AS BOTH COMPETITORS FALL! WHAT A MAIN EVENT MATCHUP THIS HAS BEEN!!

James Peters: Andrea trying to reach out to climb the ladder, but just as she starts to climb the ladder Serena Riot attacks her from behind! Somehow Serena still has fight left in her, and you’ve got to give her credit for that despite not being in EAW as long as Andrea! Andrea dropping down the ladder now, and it looks like this is going to become a slugfest once again as Andrea hits a huge punch to Serena’s jaw! Serena is quick to retaliate as she lands a punch of her own, causing Andrea to stumble! ANDREA WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK THOUGH, AND SERENA LOSES HER BALANCE AND DROPS TO A KNEE! Andrea trying to grab Serena- BUT SERENA PUSHES HER AWAY, AND THERE’S A KNEE STRIKE!

Rich Russillo: Serena now trying to throw Andrea into the ladder in the corner- BUT ANDREA! ANDREA MANAGES TO RUN UP THE LADDER STEPS, AND SHE TURNS AROUND AND DIVES!! CROSSBODY BY ANDREA!! WHAT A COUNTER THAT WAS BY ANDREA, AS SHE SOMEHOW FOUND THE BALANCE TO RUN UP THAT LADDER AND HIT A HUGE DIVING CROSSBODY! IS THIS IT!? IS THIS THE MOMENT ANDREA HAS BEEN WAITING FOR!? ANDREA NOW TRYING TO CLIMB UP- BUT NO! SERENA IS GRABBING ONTO ANDREA’S LEG! EVEN AFTER ALL THAT, SERENA STILL ISN’T WILLING TO LET ANDREA WIN THIS MATCH!

James Peters: ANDREA TRYING TO KICK AWAY AT SERENA’S HAND, AND SHE DOES, BUT SERENA HAS MANAGED TO GET BACK TO HER FEET, AND NOW SHE’S TRYING TO PUSH THE LADDER DOWN! AND SHE DOES!! SERENA JUST PUSHED DOWN THE LADDER, CAUSING ANDREA TO FALL INTO THE ROPES! EVEN SO, SERENA CAN’T CAPITALIZE AS SHE’S CLEARLY STILL HURT AFTER EVERYTHING THAT’S GONE DOWN IN THIS MATCH! ONCE AGAIN BOTH COMPETITORS ARE DOWN, BUT WHO’S GOING TO GET UP FIRST!?

Rich Russillo: I honestly don’t know! Both women have taken so much out of each other that at this point I don’t know if I can pick a winner! They’re both just as determined as the other, and they’re both willing to put their bodies on the line in order to win this match! This one’s not over yet, but I can say that no matter who wins, this has been an amazing showing for both competitors!

(Not long after Rich finished speaking, both competitors slowly came to their senses. It took a little while, but eventually the two both managed to get back to their feet and began to approach each other.)

James Peters: The two now, surprisingly beginning to lock up! Of course assuming one of them attempt a submission tapping out wouldn’t mean anything, but it would be a great way to weaken the opponent and possibly stop then from climbing the ladder! Andrea now managing to get Serena in a headlock, and this is exactly what I mean! If Andrea can weaken Serena down and possibly cause her to pass out, it will be an easy win for her!

Rich Russillo: Yeah but Serena won’t let that happen as she lifts her up- BUT ANDREA LANDS ON HER FEET! ANDREA NOW LIFTING SERENA UP, AND THERE’S A GERMAN SUPLE- NO! NOW IT’S SERENA THAT LANDS ON HER FEET! SERENA NOW GRABBING ANDREA FROM BEHIND! THE DEVIL’S FANG!! THE DEVIL’S FANG CONNECTS!! ANDREA LOOKS ABSOLUTELY OUT OF IT AFTER BEING HIT WITH THAT DRAGON SLEEPER BACKBREAKER!! SERENA RIOT HAS THIS MATCH WON, BUT WAIT! IT’S VEENA ADAMS!! VEENA IS ON THE APRON, AND IT LOOKS LIKE SHE’S INSTRUCTING SERENA!

James Peters: THIS IS SERENA’S MATCH WITHOUT A DOUBT, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE VEENA WANTS TO ADD ONE LAST FINISHING TOUCH AS SERENA BEGINS HOLDING ANDREA UP IN FRONT OF THE LADDER PLACED IN THE CORNER! VEENA NOW ENTERING THE RING, AND THIS DOESN’T LOOK TOO GOOD FOR THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION! VEENA NOW CHARGING IN, SPEAR- OH MY GOD!! NO!!!

Rich Russillo: ANDREA VALENTINE GOT OUT OF THE WAY, AND JUST PULLED SERENA INTO VEENA’S WAY!! VEENA JUST SPEARED SERENA RIOT THROUGH THE LADDER!! VEENA NOW GETTING OUT OF THE CORNER, AND SHE CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED, BUT THERE’S A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION BY ANDREA!! AND THERE SHE GOES FROM BEHIND!! ATOMIC BLONDE!! THE ATOMIC BLONDE CONNECTS AND VEENA IS FORCED TO ROLL OUT OF THE RING!! ANDREA NOW SETTING UP THE LADDER, AND SHE BEGINS TO CLIMB!! ANDREA NOW TRYING TO UNHOOK THE CHAMPIONSHIP, AND SHE DOES IT!! ANDREA VALENTINE RETAINS THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER… AND STILL SPECIALISTS CHAMPION… AANNDDRREEEAAAA VAAAAALENTIIIIIINE!!!!!

James Peters: Rich.. I don’t know who’s going to be more angry. Veena, or Serena?

Rich Russillo: I mean, you’ve got a point James. Serena just lost her one shot at the Specialists Championship following Veena’s orders, and Veena just cost herself a chance at getting the Championship away from Andrea Valentine! Both Veena and Serena failed to get what they want, but things couldn’t have gone any better for the Champion!

James Peters: Yep! Veena made a huge mistake, and Andrea managed to capitalize off of it! I will say though, despite how it all ended, Serena should be proud of the fight she put up against Andrea, even though she had some help along the way.

Rich Russillo: You’re right. Let’s also not forget how Serena had the match won. Had Veena not got involved in the end, I think we would’ve had a new Specialists Champ. All in all, what a match, congratulations Andrea Valentine.

(‘Roll With Me’ plays and everyone is on their feet, cheering.)

James Peters: Congratulations to Andrea Valentine, indeed. That championship defense ensures that Andrea will forever be etched in the EAW history books as one of the longest reigning Specialists Champions in history.

Rich Russillo: I can’t think of a more deserving person of that kind of honor. The way Andrea carries herself, conducts her business, and gives everything her all no matter what makes her one of the greatest Elitists this company has ever seen.

(Andrea Valentine raises the Specialists Championship high in the sky as she’s still on the ladder, before eventually climbing down it to embrace the feeling of retaining the title with the fans. Meanwhile, neither Veena Adams nor Serena Riot has gotten back to their feet, or even woken up yet.)

(EAW logo buzzes.)
