(EAW intro plays.)
(A recap for last week’s Dynasty is shown: last week’s show started off with Jake Smith coming out and talking about Drake King and how he’s brought what Jake has been forced to do on himself. After a bit, Drake would come out and after saying his share Jake attempted to attack him before Drake took him out before Insurgency could even help out their leader. In the first match of the night, Mary S. Atlas got a well-deserved win over Komatsu Ogawa. After that, The Realm invaded New York as they interviewed citizens their thoughts about The Blicky Boyz and because of their negative actions how New York needed new role models to look up to, and who better than The Realm? Later on, Mike Murphy would get a win over Jonny Airhart in impressive fashion. Later after, Mr. DEDEDE came out saying that Andre Walker last week opened his eyes to a new perspective. Andre came out as both of them agreed with one another, to the surprise of Andre, before it was revealed to all be a ruse as DEDEDE took Andre out with a spear, giving him a reminder of the role he plays in this business. In the next match, Maxwell got a well-needed win over a competent competitor in The Fallen Angel. Afterwards Charlie Marr came to him giving him another chance to be taken under his wing, in which The Fallen Angel denied once more and warned him about what was to come. Dr. Angelo D’angelo came out to the ring as he once again preached why The Visual Prophet deserved better in EAW and how it would have a drastic negative impact on the company because of his departure. None other than Impact would interrupt him and reveal he had quite literally had enough of D’angelo. After a heated back and forth, Impact would grab Dr. Angelo D’angelo by the collar and after both of them separated away, D’angelo had the last word saying that EAW had 1 week to comply with The Visual Prophet’s orders or they would be long gone from Elite Answers Wrestling. Riley McCray and Veena Adams would get a shocking victory over Chris Elite and Serena Bennett after Eric LeCava would unintentionally cost Serena the match leaving Chris for the pin. After saying a few comments, Adam Lucas went up against Limmy Monaghan in a match that would end after Insurgency came out and DQed them before MITSUBACHI and Komatsu Ogawa came out for the save. Veena would take all credit for the victory as Riley joined her backstage, it was then that Veena snapped and shoved her away leaving her there. Afterwards, Impact would get a win over SEBAS in a great match between two excellent competitors. Backstage Eric LeCava would find Serena Bennett to apologize for what happened before Serena finally snapped and, enraged, would yell about how she has had it up to here with what she’s been doing these past few weeks. She attacked Eris and locked her in the Trap Queen before being forced to separate away from a miserable Eris afterwards. Charlie Marr would beat Dray Fontana with the help of Lethal Consequences at commentary before after the match The Fallen Angel would lay out Charlie and drag him backstage to send him a message. And in the main event in the King of Elite semi-finals for Dynasty, Xander Payne would get a win over MITSUBACHI to advance to the finals against the Showdown finalist and the Voltage finalist to end the show and the recap)
(After the recap, Dynasty’s broadcast then fades to the inside of the World 1 Theatre as red and white pyro would spew all throughout the stage to the cheers from the virtual crowd. The camera pans around the arena as it always did to kick off the show before it heads over to the commentary desk. Flannery McCoy and Jake Mercer would be seen as always with smiles on their faces. Missing from the commentary table is Stew-O, who was somewhere else for the moment.)
Flannery McCoy: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME TO FRIDAY NIGHT DYNASTY!
Jake Mercer: Yessir we have a show for you tonight. Especially with our main event where we’ll see Dynasty’s King of Elite finalist Xander Payne going up against World Heavyweight Champion Lethal Consequences, in what can be considered a preview of what might come if Xander does come out of King of Elite winning the tournament!
Flannery McCoy: And not only that, but we also have The Last Messiah, Drake King, in action tonight as he goes up against a member of Insurgency, a group he knows all too well at this point, in the form of Maxwell. A show like no other tonight!
Jake Mercer: And we’re starting off with a bang too! Oh boy I just can’t wait! BECAUSE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IT’S LC TIME! :blessed: :blessed: :blessed:
(The camera transitions back into the ring where Stew-O is seen with a smile on his face. The ring, as it usually is for these types of scenarios, has been set up with a red carpet draped over the mat along with a table with a black leather binder on it. Stew has a smile on his face as the crowd would buzz before he begins to speak)
Stew-O: Ladies and gentlemen, today we’re here to witness the contract signing between two competitors who will be fighting for the World Heavyweight Championship at King of Elite. Introducing first, a man who is a former PURE Champion and has been on a road of dominance ever since coming to the red brand in less than a year and now fighting for World Championship gold. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Dray Fontana!
(“Pure Water” by Skepta blasts through the speakers and is followed by boos from the crowd as Dray Fontana makes his way out to the stage. Having a match later on tonight, he wears a shirt over his ring attire as he poses at the center of the stage before heading down the ramp and to the ring. He makes his way over the steel steps and enters the ring as he looks over at Stew and shakes his head with a smirk on his face before taking his seat at the table as he fixes his attention on the stage as “Pure Water” fades out.)
Stew-O: And next, a man who recently won the title he holds today, the World Heavyweight Championship, in the Extreme Elimination Chamber against five other people. A seven-year journey culminating in a moment that will not be forgotten for a long time and now holds the flag to the red brand itself. Ladies and gentlemen please welcome, your World Heavyweight Champion, Lethal Consequences!
(More boos showered the arena as “Tougher Colder Killer” by El-P ft. Killer Mike and Despot starts up and Lethal Consequences makes his way out to the stage. Despite having a match in the main event tonight, he showed up to the contract signing with jeans on and a white Collar John t-shirt as he wears the World Heavyweight Championship around his shoulder. He took the title and raised it in the air as he made his way down the ramp and into the ring. He took a seat across from Dray as he looked as emotionless as him back at him as “Tougher Colder Killer” fades out.)
Stew-O: Gentlemen, I won’t want to take up any of your time, the floor is yours.
(Dray shook his head after bringing the mic on the table closer to him so he may begin to speak.)
Dray Fontana: I feel like I don’t need to say much but now that I get the chance to speak to you face to face, I’ll do it anyways. Admit it old man, I’ve gotten into your head. There’s a reason that you cost me my match last week, because you couldn’t accept me getting the better of you by beating Charlie Marr. You couldn’t sit by and watch, of course you had to blindside me and cost me the match because you’re insecure. Every chance you got you’ve attempted to take a well-deserved victory away from me, and that just shows how desperate you’re getting. I’ve been pulling my punches towards you ever since I first came out there to stake a claim and make the next move in my career, but it won’t get me anywhere. I need to take what’s mine and by doing so will be taking the World Heavyweight Championship. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been here because the fact is, whether it’s taken you 2 years or 5 years, Lethal Consequences is still an idiot who can be manipulated and taken advantage of. Get that into your head. King of Elite is not going to go the way you expect.
(LC watches Dray, unamusadly, as he finishes. He takes a deep breath before speaking.)
Lethal Consequences: Someone like you, someone who by the way I didn’t know until you decided to drag your ass out and challenge me, is not in the position to dictate when and where my title reign ends. You don’t tell me how I act, you do not know how my mind works, it’s a thought process more broader than anything you could ever fathom. You’re just like anyone else around here saying that I decided to get off of my ass and do something with my career, it’s always been the same, perception been stay the same though. Do you even know who you’re speaking to? Someone who has been on this path and journey longer than you could walk. I stand here getting better by the day because everyday I wake up and I look at the reflection that greets me in the mirror and promise myself to be better, especially with this title, same room for years, just a different day. What matters is the fact that it doesn’t matter who you’re facing, pre-Road To Redemption, or post-Road To Redemption, you’re still going to get an asskicking because I am big bad Lethal Consequences. And that in itself is a death sentence.
(Dray listened to every word LC said with a stern look on his face before placing his hand on the table, dragging the black leather binder towards him and opening it up as he looked over at LC)
Dray Fontana: You honestly believe that don’t you? You believe that King of Elite will go without a problem in your head. Mind you, you’re someone who considers me like the rest, cut from the same cloth? No no, that’s where you’ve got this thing all wrong. What makes me different is the fact that I had the balls to begin with to step up to the plate when everyone else was scared of a frail disposal piece of trash like you. Maybe you should realize that before you jump to assumptions. Signing this contract means that there’s no going back from the asskicking you’re going to get, now I know damn well you’re going to sign it, but is that going to be in your best interest? To lose what matters most to you? I guess we’ll find out.
(Dray looked down at the dotted line allocated for him as he looked up to LC one more time, before signing his name on it and pushing it LC’s way. LC raised an eyebrow at the gesture as he took the pen and clicked it as he looked down at the contract before beginning to speak)
Lethal Consequences: You got guts, more guts than brains. I don’t know what makes you different than any other labeled elitist around here, nothing out of the ordinary really. You haven’t made a dent in my career, nobody has, which is why I said, once again, you are not in any sort of position, you have no room to tell me what I have to do for myself. It’s a fine line Dray. Someday maybe you’ll see that, if you’ve been here as long as I have maybe you’ll be enlightened by the lenses that I’ve been looking in. Till then, maybe another day. :dave:
(LC finally signs the contract as Dray looks at him with a big smirk on his face. Both of them standing up out of their positions to look at one another before…)
Flannery McCoy: DRAY JUST SHOVED LC BACKWARDS! HE’S HAD ENOUGH!
Jake Mercer: BUT LC! LC! JUDAS EFFECT TO THE HEAD OF DRAY SENDS HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! LC HAS GOTTEN THE LAST LAUGH!
(LC quickly rolls out of the ring as he finds himself at the bottom of the ramp. “Tougher Colder Killer” starts up as LC raised the World Heavyweight Championship in the air. Dray watches on the inside as he sits up on the canvas, barely stirring but angered at the actions of Lethal Consequences. From there, Dynasty fades out to commercial break)
(A commercial for Ebay is shown where Andre Walker is seen on his phone trying to sell that weird ass jacket he always wears on EAW television that makes him look gay, not surprising.)
(Dynasty’s broadcast opens up to ringside at the World 1 Theater where Stephie Love stands in the center of the ring.)
Stephie Love: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
Stephie Love: And it is a TAG TEAM MATCH!
(“The Outsiders” by Eric Church begins to play, marking the entrance of Donovan Duke as he confidently steps out onto the top of the stage. He makes his way down the ramp as Stephie announces him, an expression on his face which reads he no interest in wasting more time than he needs to inside of this arena.)
Stephie Love: Introducing first from Stillwater, Oklahoma, he is “The Oklahoma Gentleman,” DONOVANNNNNN DUUUUUUUKE!!!
Jake Mercer: The Gentleman’s Table is not for the likes of you, Flannery! Grown men only!
Flannery McCoy: *slaps Jake and restarts Empire*
Stew-O: Don’t listen to Jake. Anyone named Jake, that is. I am sure that gentlewomen are allowed at The Duke’s table even if So-Called children like Komatsu Ogawa are not.
Flannery McCoy: *calms down and shuts Empire down again*
(“The Invisible Wall” By The GazettE begins to play as Komatsu Ogawa steps out onto the stage.)
Stephie Love: And his opponent from Kabukicho, Tokyo, Japan, weighing in at 251 pounds, he is “Stardust Devil,” KOMATSUUUUUUUUUUU OGAWAAAAA!!!!
Flannery McCoy: Komatsu chose to remain silent this week, an interesting tactic considering the streak of losses he’s endured these past few weeks.
Jake Mercer: Silent but deadly. Komatsu might come across as incredibly calm and passive initially, but he is capable of being a DANGEROUS competitor in the ring.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Flannery McCoy: We are underway as Komatsu Ogawa immediately takes down Donovan Duke with a Superkick. Ogawa runs the ropes… Running Guillotine Leg Drop right across Donovan’s throat! Donovan coughing and heaving from the force of that leg drop! Donovan pulls himself up in the corner trying to regain his breath up in here. But here comes Ogawa with a Spinning Elbow Strike into the corner at high speed! No! Donovan dodges as Ogawa hits his arm dangerously hard on the turnbuckle padding. Leave the turnbuckle alone! Leave it alone! But Ogawa spins around fast grabbing Donovan from behind as he leaves the corner… Backstabber connects! Ogawa into the cover!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Stew-O: And the KICKOUT by Donovan Duke with much authority tossing Komatsu Ogawa high up into the air! But Ogawa lands on his feet! Donovan sweeps the leg, knocking him back down as he spinaroonies his way back up to his feet! Donovan grabs Komatsu by the hair and tosses him over the top rope to the outside! But Ogawa lands on his feet on the floor! Donovan runs the ropes… he leaps over the top! A HUGE BACKFLIP OVER THE TOP ROPE AS DONOVAN CONNECTS WITH A SUICIDE MOONSAULT TO THE OUTSIDE!!!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Jake Mercer: Both men lying motionless on the outside until Donovan Duke suddenly stirs! Donovan backs up as he grabs Komatsu Ogawa and throws him back into the ring. He hooks the leg for the pin! Do we have a winner?!?!?!?
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: The kickie and the outie! Komatsu Ogawa is still alive! Donovan Duke waits for Ogawa to get back up… he charges in with a Spinning Back Fist! But Ogawa ducks beneath! Ogawa with a running LARIATOOOOOOO!!! Down goes Donovan! Komatsu now up to the top rope… Moonsault off the top! But Donovan rolls out of the way! But Komatsu lands on his feet! Standing Moonsault! Got him that time! The cover!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Jake Mercer: Donovan Duke kicks out hard. Komatsu Ogawa slaps him across the face! But Donovan returns fire with a haymaker as he makes his return to his feet! Komatsu with a heavily illegal closed fist punch. Donovan returns one in kind! Komatsu! Donovan! Komatsu! Donovan! Komatsu! Donovan!
Referee: :noah:
Stew-O: The referee showing great restraint in not disqualifying both men for these shameful techniques. They just keep going back and forth! Neither man is going down! Neither will stop! This boxing contest has got to come to an end one way or the other! The brain damage will most certainly see to that! Both competitors are reeling now from so many repeated shots to the face! Someone is going to give! Who will fall? Komatsu! Donovan! Komatsu! Donovan! Komatsu! Komatsu! Komatsu!!!
Jake Mercer: Down goes Donovan Duke! Komatsu Ogawa coming out the victor here in this battle of will! But the exhaustion setting in! Ogawa tired as he slowly bounces off the ropes and hits a somewhat lazy rolling knee drop across the face of Donovan! He grabs the face he just rammed his knees into and begins to choke him out over the bottom rope! But the referee has clearly had enough!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE!
Komatsu Ogawa: (off-mic) Disqualify me bitch! You don’t have the balls!
Referee: .mute
Komatsu Ogawa: :whoa:
Flannery McCoy: Komatsu Ogawa finally relents. I am not sure what the referee threatened him with but by the look on his face it was a fate far worse than disqualification or perhaps even death itself!
Stew-O: BUT DONOVAN DUKE WITH A SCHOOLBOY ROLLUP FROM BEHIND!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Jake Mercer: The kickout! Despite all odds this match will continue! Komatsu Ogawa is a survivor! Donovan Duke immediately locks Komatsu into a headlock using his arms to pressure his opponent here looking to get him to fade away! But Komatsu refuses to fade as he powers up and out of the hold! Komatsu with a variety of shin kicks to the legs of Donovan forcing him to back up and away from him. Donovan now thrown off his game as Komatsu yells out in rage and uses the strength of his own determination to pick up Donovan and slam him down to the mat with a Military Press! Ogawa with a Standing Senton on his opponent in the ring! He pulls his opponent up… IVORY DIABLO!!! It connects!!! The cover! Ogawa went all out with that Fireman’s Carry swung into a high-angle Over The Shoulder Back-To-Belly Piledriver!!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Stew-O: Somehow Donovan Duke survives!!!
Flannery McCoy: Komatsu Ogawa cannot believe it! He says he is going to do it again! Another Ivory Diablo! How can he hit a second one?
Jake Mercer: Well Flan there are many Ivory Diablos. In fact all diablos are ivory. Facts only.
Flannery McCoy: No! Donovan Duke counters it! He literally went over the shoulder of Komatsu Ogawa and avoided the Belly to Belly Piledriver! He grabs Komatsu and twists him up… ROYAL FLUSH CONNECTS!!! DONOVAN WITH THE PIN!!! This could be it right here!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stephie Love: Here is your winner… DOOOOOOONAVAN DUUUUUUKE!!!
(“The Outsiders” by Eric Church starts back up again as Donovan rises from the mat and has his hand held high in the air by the referee. Donovan pulls away from the ref quickly as he looks down at Ogawa, a satisfied smirk growing across his face as he admires his handiwork.)
Flannery McCoy: Big win for Donovan Duke tonight against a very determined Komatsu Ogawa!
Stew-O: It has to be frustrating for Ogawa to take yet another loss here tonight but he gets better every time. One day he will be the one with his arm raised.
Jake Mercer: But not tonight! Tonight The Duke reigns supreme!
(Dynasty’s broadcast transitions to commercial break, featuring a commercial starring Ronan Malosi taking his driving test. Best not let yo kids walk on the sidewalk today is all I’m saying.)
(We return from commercial break, the broadcast opening straight up to the brand’s interviewer, Michael Belfort, standing in front of the interview set-up with a microphone in his hand.)
Michael Belfort: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, the PURE Champion and Insurgency member, Limmy Monaghan.
(Limmy Monaghan walks into the shot holding the PURE Championship on his shoulder with his ring gear on and an Insurgency shirt on. Behind him are fellow Insurgency members Jake Smith, Donovan Duke, and Maxwell, all wearing casual clothing with the same Insurgency merch that Limmy has on. Limmy has a smug look on his face, while his stablemates have an expressionless, serious glare on their faces.)
Michael Belfort: Hey Limmy, I hope you’re having a great time as I am excited to have you here tonight!
Limmy Monaghan: You know I wish I could say the same thing. I’m really, like, not in the mood to respond to the same questions I get asked every other week and I really want to beat someone up, so if you don’t want to be on the same list Chris Elite will be later tonight, then you will make this quick and you will only ask me questions worth my time. Okay?
Michael Belfort: Uhm, okay. Anyway, so first I’ll ask you about your match later tonight against Chris Elite since you mentioned it earlier, how do you feel about it?
Limmy Monaghan: How do I feel about it? I’ll beat him until he’s out of this company, really. I’ll put a knife through his heart, I’ll shoot a “blicky” through his brain, I’ll snap his damn neck for all I care! What kind of question is that Michael, do you believe that Chris Elite has a chance against me? Fuck no. I don’t give a single fuck about anything he’s ever done in his whole career because he’ll be the fuck out of here after tonight, I don’t know what the fuck he’ll do but if he ever dares to show his face again I’ll bury him back to the ground and I might as well go ahead and murder his whole family too while I’m at it.
Micahel Belfort :krabs:
Limmy Monaghan: Yeah so I hope you can read the room and make this interview go by as quick as I would like it to.
Michael Belfort: Alright, I sure do wish you good luck against Chris Elite and I hope that you’ll let him live his life. So, how about Insurgency, what are your guys’ plans for 2021?
Jake Smith: Limmy, you can give me the mic on this one.
(Limmy Monaghan steps out of the way as Jake Smith walks in front of the interviewer.)
Jake Smith: Do you want to know our plans, Michael? Well, we won’t tell the whole fucking world what we plan to do but if it wasn’t already obvious: our main goal is destruction. We want to bring this WHOLE fucking roster DOWN to its knees, and have them beg for their lives because Insurgency is here to destroy, I have purposefully chosen people who have either been underlooked or deserve better because I want to grow them as my children and turn what’s otherwise a joke to some, a big fucking threat, I started to take these 3 people under my wing because I know I can bring them to stardom and make them Pain For Pride main eventers while the world crumbles apart. And it starts with Drake King, unfortunately he stepped out of line and now he’s making the mistake that everyone has made with underestimating us, he’ll realize that it’ll be a mistake he’ll soon come to regret, not my problem though, that’s his, I’ve told him that day in and day out. He chooses if he wants to believe me, he chooses his own fate. That is all, Limmy, please.
(Jake Smith walks out back as Limmy gets in front of the camera shot again. Limmy is nodding his head in agreement to what Jake prior said but takes the opportunity to add to Jake’s words.)
Limmy Monaghan: Yeah, Jake described it perfectly. We’re just here to destroy every single person in our sight, we’re the greatest alliance, stable, tag team that EAW has ever seen and we’ll be so until the end. We’re already dominant as fuck, and we’ll be so much more dominant until this year is over that we’ll be a force to be reckoned with. You see what happened to Drake King? Sierra Bradford just because she associates herself with him? Adam Lucas? And the list goes on. Everyone who tries to step up to us goes back to the bottom of the damn list.
Michael Belfort: Well, how about your match with SEBAS for the PURE Championship scheduled to happen at King of Elite? Do you think SEBAS could swoop in and ruin your PURE Title reign just like that?
Limmy Monaghan: You know, the more you speak the more I think you want to be 6 feet under. What do you mean that SEBAS could end my PURE Title reign at King of Elite? SEBAS? Ending a title reign? SEBAS?!?!?!?!??!?!?!? Like, man, you’re serious, can you say that with a straight face? SEBAS… WINNING A TITLE? :mjlol: You know I just recently found out that he’s actually Caribbean instead of like Mexican or whatever, and you know what I think about that? I think he should keep staying on that pirate ship that he lives on and never show his face again because the last time we faced off, it didn’t go so well, now did it? And to add to that, this time it’s for the title that I’ll be proudly defending forever so I’ll make sure SEBAS is as far from this company as possible again, and well, whether he’s retired, paralyzed, dead, I’ll do whatever it takes to keep SEBAS away from ever stepping foot in an EAW ring ever. Okay? I will DESTROY SEBAS at King of Elite an–
???: Bold.
(Limmy’s face goes from smug to grim, the Insurgency members in the back start to step forward, but Limmy signals them to stand back. The camera would hover over to SEBAS staring down Limmy Monaghan’s PURE Title, wearing his wrestling gear since his match is up next. “The Tropical Breeze” would finally get his eyes off the title and would instead move them to his nemesis’ face.)
SEBAS: Limmy Monaghan. Long time no see, honestly, I owe you a lot, I seriously do, I owe you the biggest fucking beating of your damn life you overrated fucking bitch. I honestly can’t believe that in my absence, you, YOU OF ALL PEOPLE became PURE Champion, and now you got a few buddies with you because you can’t do the job on your own. How laughable. Now tell me Limmy, tell me every single thing you’ve just said, but say it to my face.
Limmy Monaghan: Blah, blah, blah! I DON’T CARE! You shouldn’t be here, you should be chilling on them Puerto Rico beaches bumping Despacito instead of getting yourself injured again. I mean, do you REALLY want to trigger the SEBAS Slicer again? Well, you already did, but that’s not the point. Look man, even as a title contender, I CAN’T TAKE YOU SERIOUSLY! You’re just… unbelievably garbage. I mean you couldn’t capture the New Breed Championship from Bronson Daniels not once, but TWICE, and then when I “got rid of you”, didn’t you realize something was wrong? Didn’t you realize that after those failures, you should be talking with your parrot that every pirate has on their shoulder and never come back? But no, everyone has to stick their nose in mine and Insurgency’s business for some reason. You, Adam Lucas, MITSUBACHI, Drake King, and you know what’s funny? We have the upper hand on all of them. You’re a laughing act, while I’m the PURE King, so please, bow down to me, apologize in front of my face before I end your career for good this time.
SEBAS: That’s funny. You are… The PURE King? Yeah, king of pure shit.
Limmy Monaghan: King of pure shit? Mhm, that’s funny, your bruised, bloody face will be even funnier.
Stew-O: AND LIMMY MONAGHAN WITH A HUGE RIGHT HAND TO SEBAS AS MICHAEL BELFORT GOES RUNNING!
Jake Mercer: AND NOW THE REST OF INSURGENCY STARTING TO POUND ON SEBAS!
Stew-O & Flannery McCoy: AY FUCKING YO!
Jake Mercer: WHAT?!?!? I DID NOTHING WRONG!
Flannery McCoy: AND LOOK AT ALL OF INSURGENCY TAKING TURNS AT KICKING SEBAS!
Stew-O: DONOVAN! AND NOW JAKE! AND NOW MAXWELL! AND LIMMY TOO!
Jake Mercer: BUT WAIT! THE ODDS HAVE BEEN EVENED! LOOK WHO’S HERE!
Flanner McCoy: ADAM LUCAS GOING AFTER DONOVAN DUKE AND LIMMY MONAGHAN! COMING FOR SEBAS’ AID!
Stew-O: AND IT’S MITSUBACHI ATTACKING JAKE SMITH AND MAXWELL! INSURGENCY STILL HAVE THE NUMBER’S ADVANTAGE AS THEY MANAGE TO GET THE UPPER HAND ON LUCAS AND MITSUBACHI! BUT SEBAS IS NOW UP, HE’S HELPING OUT ADAM LUCAS! ADAM LUCAS JUST HIT LIMMY WITH A TV! AND SEBAS HITS DONOVAN DUKE WITH A CHAIR!
Jake Mercer: IT IS NOW A 3-ON-2 WITH JUST MAXWELL AND JAKE SMITH LEFT! ADAM LUCAS, SEBAS, AND MITSUBACHI BEATING UP JAKE AND MAXWELL!
???: STOP THAT! ALL OF YOU!
(Everyone stops fighting as they change their focus onto the Dynasty General Manager StarrStan.)
StarrStan: Pull yourselves together, this is no way to carry yourself in my backstage area! You guys want to fight? You got it. King of Elite, Insurgency’s Maxwell, and Donovan Duke will take on Adam Lucas and MITSUBACHI and hopefully put an end to all this ruckus. Please, save the fighting for later. And SEBAS, you have somewhere to be.
(Adam and MITSUBACHI look over their future opponents before walking out, meanwhile, Maxwell tries to pay attention to those two while also trying to help out Donovan, while Jake Smith tries helping out the Limmy Monaghan. SEBAS picks up Limmy Monaghan’s PURE Championship and raises it in the air before dropping it on him, nearly hitting the 6 footer Jake with it, as the broadcast transitions to Stephie Love at ringside.)
Stephie Love: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! And it is a Tag Team Match!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(“La Guayaba” by Riccie Oriach begins to play through the World 1 Theatre speakers, the virtual audience in attendance tonight cheering wildly as SEBAS steps out onto the stage. Still a little heated from the altercation that took place just moments ago, his usual wide smile is missing as he proceeds down the ramp.)
Stephie Love: Introducing first…from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, weighing in at 205 pounds, he is “Tropical Breeze…” SEEEEEEEEEBASSSSS!!!!
Jake Mercer: SEBAS didn’t say anything this week.
Flannery McCoy: Just because you didn’t understand the language he used doesn’t mean he didn’t say anything.
Stew-O: He didn’t say anything in Spanish either.
Flannery McCoy: Oh my bad. Nevermind then.
(As SEBAS positions himself in a turnbuckle corner, “Pure Water” by Skepta starts up, and the cheers for SEBAS soon switch to a raucous chorus of boos. Dray Fontana, unfazed by the crowd reaction, purposefully struts down the ramp, tearing off the t-shirt he was seen in earlier and throwing it along the ramp.)
Stephie Love: And his partner, from Kingston Upon Thames, England, United Kingdom, weighing in at 200 pounds, he is “The Boss of Life” DRRRRRRAAAYYYYYY FONTANA!!!
Jake Mercer: Dray here to kick some ass and secure himself a momentous victory here tonight!
Flannery McCoy: Hopefully yours. But it’s true, he doesn’t seem to be in the best of moods tonight following the altercation he had earlier tonight with LC.
Stew-O: While he managed to pull himself up rather quickly after being on the receiving end of the Judas Effect, something tells me his mood didn’t go unaffected by the action tonight. His opponents for the evening certainly have a lot to watch out for heading into this one.
(“The Lifestyles of the Rich & Hated” by G Eazy ft. Rick Ross hits as the camera cuts from Dray Fontana posting on the apron to the stage, where The Living Highlight now stands.)
Stephie Love: And their opponents. Introducing first, from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, weighing in at 245 pounds, he is THE LIVINGGGGGGG HIGGGGGGGGHLIGHT!!!!
Flannery McCoy: TLH has arrived and it is time to prove that Dynasty has the superior wrestler with a three letter name. :wow: No shade to TLA, but I have lots of high hopes for the Living Highlight and his EAW career!
Jake Mercer: This man truly is the living highlight! Just looking at him is going to be the highlight of my 2021 so far!
Stew-O: Damn your life must be real sad then. You hate to see it.
(“Pretty Boy Swag” by Soulja Boy begins to play just as The Living Highlight finds himself at the bottom of the ramp. On the top of the stage is a high energy Jonny Airhart with his back to the camera so the audience can read “RICH PRETTY BOY” printed across his trunks.)
Stephie Love: And his tag team partner…from Atherton, California, weighing in at 205 pounds, he is the “Rich Pretty Boy” JONNNNNYYYYY AAAAAIIIIIRRRRRRRRHART!!!!
Jake Mercer: Swag. Swag. Swag.
Flannery McCoy: Ugh. Another rich cocky man who thinks he can waltz into this industry and act as though he’s god’s greatest gift to wrestling. Seriously, after everything I had to stomach from him so far, I hope someone shuts him and his toxic masculinity up for good this week.
Stew-O: My masculinity isn’t toxic. :mjcry:
Flannery McCoy: Correct, Stew. But that’s because you don’t have any to begin with.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Flannery McCoy: We are underway as it looks like the love of my life SEBAS is starting things off against Jonny Airhart. SEBAS immediately runs the ropes and charges in with a Running Hurricanrana! But Airhart catches him! He slams him down hard on the back of his head with a Pop Up Powerbomb! He follows it up by stomping down hard on the back of the head of SEBAS. Airhart getting some serious air on that Curb Stomp! Airhart gets some more air with a Standing Moonsault as he comes crashing down on SEBAS! The cover!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Stew-O: SEBAS kicking out of that pinfall from Jonny Airhart! But Airhart right back on the attack as he hits a leaping Elbow Drop to the back of SEBAS keeping his opponent grounded. Airhart glaring down at SEBAS with murderous intent clearly hungry for blood as he yanks the arm of SEBAS in an attempt to dislocate it!!! SEBAS yelling out in pain as Airhart leaps up holding the arm and swinging forward driving both knees down into the shoulder of SEBAS. Airhart holds the arm of SEBAS down as he tries to roll out of it but Airhart holds him down and drives his knees down once more! SEBAS desperately trying to escape here digging and crawling with his other arm to get to the ropes. SEBAS powering up to his feet! He uses his other arm to grab the ropes! But Airhart just yanks him right back down with a swift arm drag! SEBAS rolls out of the arm drag into the corner. Airhart comes charging in with a Running Double Knee Strike right to the shoulder of SEBAS!!!
Jake Mercer: But SEBAS moves out of the way! Jonny Airhart crashing and burning as he falls into the corner crashing into it with his knees! This is SEBAS’ chance! He makes a leap across the ring with his good arm outstretched!!! Can SEBAS even make it??!?!?! He can! And he does!!!
*TAG*
Flannery McCoy: SEBAS makes the tag and Dray Fontana has entered the ring! Fontana enters the ring and immediately locks up with Jonny Airhart! No! Fontana with a Running Knee Strike to the jaw of Airhart! Some payback for what he just tried to do to his partner!!! The cover!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: Kick out at two by Jonny Aihart as Dray Fontana immediately drags his opponent up to his feet. He hooks the head of Airhart… Leaping DDT drops him down to the mat with force! Fontana grabs the arm of Airhart on the ground looking here for an armbar… but Airhart rolls through it and is back up to his feet! Airhart takes down Fontana with a Shoulder Block but Fontana sweeps the leg of Airhart as he goes down. Both men down on the mat as they throw quick strikes at each other on the mat. They both spring back up with Spinning Kicks kicking each other’s legs away from each other. Fontana kicks Airhart back into the corner and charges in… Running Splash into the corner at high speed! He holds on to Airhart… Belly to Belly Suplex into a Pinning Bridge! This could be it!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Jake Mercer: Kickout before three by Jonny Airhart. Dray Fontana immediately tries to transition into a Front Headlock but Airhart gets his foot on the ropes. The referee forces the break as The Living Highlight reaches down over the ropes to hit the foot of Airhart! The tag has been made as TLH comes flying into the ring like a missile taking down Fontana with a glorious Spear!
Flannery McCoy: SPEAR! SPEAR! SPEAR!
Stew-O: The Living Highlight now pounding away at Dray Fontana on the ground! Fontana with a hard elbow strike as he pushes TLH away from him back into the corner. Fontana now charging in. But TLH leaps over him as Fontana runs into the corner and falls down into a sitting position. TLH runs the ropes and connects with a Sliding Dropkick on Fontana in the corner! TLH grabs the arm of Fontana yanking him out of his sitting position and drags him forward… he hooks the arm… SNAP SUPLEX connects! Oh snap! TLH runs the ropes… Springboard Moonsault right into the cover!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Jake Mercer: NO! Dray Fontana got his foot on the bottom ropes at the last minute!!! The Living Highlight picks Dray Fontana back up and drapes him up over his shoulder. Running Power Slam! No! Fontana slithers off the back of TLH and makes it to his corner!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stephie Love: Here are your winners… the team of THE LIVING HIGHLIGHT AND JONNY AIRHART!
(“The Lifestyles of the Rich & Hated” by G Eazy ft. Rick Ross starts up as the referee raises the arms of The Living Highlight and Jonny Airhart.)
Flannery McCoy: Gee, SEBAS really isn’t having a good night. :lupe: Do you think I should go help him?
Stew-O: He is beyond saving now, Flan. He has gone to a better place!
Jake Mercer: See, THIS is what money does! Jonny Airhart has the cash and the swag necessary to make it in this business! Also we just saw The Living Highlight grace us with what is sure to be many more highlights to come! He is the Living Highlight after all! His entire life is a highlight!
Stew-O: We’ll be right back after this commercial break! Stay tuned for more Friday Night Dynasty!
(The broadcast transitions to a commercial featuring EAW Elitists pulling up in limos to get the COVID vaccine in a press conference as crying poor people look on from afar.)
(Dynasty’s broadcast returns from commercial break and opens up to the inside of the World 1 Theatre, just as “Call Me” by Blondie begins to play throughout the PA system. The virtual fans in attendance begin to cheer approvingly as Eris LeCava slowly steps out onto the stage, a sullen look in her eyes as the camera catches a close-up of her face. Eris’ energy levels have taken a huge dip compared to what we’ve come to expect from Eris–in fact, the calmness we’re seeing from Eris is discomforting for us to see. As she slowly turns her head around to gaze out into the virtual audience before calmly walking down to the ring, the commentary team offers their thoughts on the situation that reached a boiling point between Eris LeCava and Serena Bennett last week.)
Stew-O: Welcome back to Friday Night Dynasty, ladies and gentlemen, and just when I thought the evening couldn’t get any more eventful so far, we’re being treated with an appearance from Eris LeCava, who I can only imagine has a lot to share with us regarding what transpired last week!
Flannery McCoy: Absolutely, Stew. Despite having insisted that Serena Bennett was going to be put on a “time out” so to speak from Eris’s affection, Eris went against her own enforcement and caused a distraction during Serena’s match, costing her team the victory in her tag team match that night. As we all already know, the aftermath wasn’t exactly what Eris was hoping for last Friday night…
Jake Mercer: Honestly, I’m surprised Serena managed to keep her emotions under control for as long as she had! It was only a matter of time before she snapped on Eris.
Flannery McCoy: Would you say Eris EARNED that assault then, Jake?
Jake Mercer: What? Of course not! I am a proud advocate against domestic violence, and I don’t think Serena should have put hands on her lover that way without implementing a safe word! Consent is everything, Flannery, don’t forget that.
Stew-O: …well, Flannery, whether or not she “earned” the attack from Bennett isn’t really up for me to decide, as Serena definitely thought it was well-deserved herself, and that has everything to do, I’m sure, with Eris’ drastic change in energy levels this evening.
(Eris has now positioned herself at the center of the ring, a microphone held in her hand as she slips a hand into her tight front pocket. “Call Me” dies down just as Eris forces a slight smile across her face that quickly turns back into a frown, as she can’t even muster up the energy to sustain the facade of happiness.)
Eris LeCava: Ladies and gentlemen of the EAW Universe…as you can probably tell, I’m not in very good spirits tonight…
(The virtual audience responds to Eris with a mild string of “boos,” showing exactly how much they dislike hearing that the former Vixen’s Champion is in a bad mood.)
Eris LeCava: Last week, I…while I thought I was playing the role of a supportive, loving, encouraging girlfriend by surprising my baby Serena at ringside last week, I only ended up upsetting her. Literally the LAST thing I would ever want to do is see my baby frown, but I was the cause of her anger last week. And she was so upset with me, she actually…physically…she put her hands on me. I never thought I’d see the day that our relationship would reach the point of physical violence with one another. Don’t worry, I’m okay! I’ve been through worse, MUCH worse, before. I am perfectly a-OK, not so much as a scratch on me! I’m not the one you need to be worried about–it’s Serena.
(Eris takes a second to pause, the audience buzzing with excitement. She slips her hand out of her pocket and runs it through her hair and down the nape of her neck before letting it fall to her side.)
Eris LeCava: Serena needs help beyond what I can give her. I’m no mental health expert, but I think it goes without saying that what Serena did last week was a complete overreaction. But I can’t blame myself for what happened last week. I’m the victim in this scenario! I am deserving of a loving, healthy, and respectful relationship and Serena isn’t able to give that to me because of the stress she’s been dealing with lately. For weeks, all I’ve been asking for from Serena was open communication. That was all! But she ignored me and played mind games with me and even went so far as to bring up my triggers in an attempt to hurt me. And you can’t have a healthy relationship when one person has complete disregard for the feelings of another person. I owe it to myself to never settle for less than I deserve! No matter how much I love Serena, I know she’s not ready to be my ideal partner, even after I did so much for her! I dedicated my entire career, the meaning of my LIFE to Serena. And she showed zero appreciation for me and all that I did for her, or our relationship. Not once. I know that I deserve to be acknowledged and loved for who I am and all I bring to the table. It breaks my heart, but…because I’m not getting that from Serena, and because I’ve done all that I can to teach that woman to love me properly to no avail…I’m sad to tell the EAW Universe that as of tonight, Serena and I are… (She takes a deep breath.) …broken up…
(The virtual audience begins a thunderous chorus of boos at Eris’ announcement. She lowers the mic from her quivering lips and takes a finger to wipe away the pool of tears forming in her eyes.)
Jake Mercer: SO, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH ALL THIS #SERIS MERCHANDISE NOW?!
Stew-O: :russwtf: You made Serena and Eris merchandise?!
Jake Mercer: Of course! Had to invest while it was hot! They’ve been a trending search on AO3 and Wattpad for WEEKS now, beating out KassiDEDEDE and Rexven by thousands of hits a day! I can only imagine what a HUGE blow this is for the fandom shippers. Hearing that your OTP is no longer canon has got to be absolutely devastating. </3
Eris LeCava: I know, I can’t believe it either! I know you’re all upset, but trust me, nobody is more hurt than I am. I was convinced that I’d spend the rest of my life with Serena. She was the love of my life. My mirror soul, my other half, my twin flame, the most powerful and moving emotional encounter I ever experienced! She pushed me to be a better woman in every aspect of my life–most of the time, without even knowing how influential she was. I would have never rediscovered the passion I had for this sport if it weren’t for watching her go out there every week and do what she does best! I have never reached a level of strength and confidence like this before, and I’m able to reach this level of self-assuredness by following Serena’s example! I might be a legend in my own right, but Serena is, too. She paved the way for so many people in this industry–heck, even beyond pro-wrestling, and gave so many people the courage to fight for what they believe in and know that as long as they put their mind to something, they can accomplish anything! And that’s a mindset I’ll carry with me through the rest of my career. While I’m absolutely grief-stricken knowing I’ll never get to nose dive in that sweet, delectable tight cunt ever again, I can still happily say that the time I spent beside Serena was the most rewarding, memorable, and happiest time of my life. I’ll always be thankful for all Serena has done for me. And I just hope that we can make this an amicable split because once all is said and done, despite what you put me through, Serena, I will always love you.
(Eris turns towards the stage, gripping the microphone with both hands.)
Eris LeCava: Serena, I would like to extend an invitation to you to join me here in the ring tonight. No more pleading, no more photos, no more overenthusiasm! If I’m going to say goodbye to you and to our love forever, I want to do it properly. I want you to know I still have the deepest respect and admiration for you, and assure you that you have nothing to worry about moving forward! Tonight…very well may be the last you ever see of me, Serena. If you could just do me this favor and say goodbye the right way, I’d be forever grateful!
(She lowers the microphone and waits patiently as she stares onward towards the stage. Eventually, “Surfin’ [ft. Pharrel Williams]” by Kid Cudi begins to play throughout the PA system of the World 1 Theatre, the virtual crowd bursting into enthusiastic cheers for the Universal Women’s Champion who steps out onto the stage and begins proceeding down the ramp immediately, and quickly.)
Stew-O: And out comes the Universal Women’s Champion, who as we all know, has been frustrated with Eris’s behavior.
Flannery McCoy: “Frustrated” would be putting it lightly, Stew, especially after Serena put her hands on Eris for costing her a victory last week. And from the look on Serena’s face, it certainly seems like she’s eager to put her hands on Eris once again.
(With the Universal Women’s Title belt held over her shoulder, Serena enters the ring through the middle rope. Eris hands her a microphone from the timekeeper’s area that Serena willingly accepts. She gives Eris a pursed smile while they wait for “Surfin’” to die down.)
Serena Bennett: The fuck you want now, Eris? You think last week would have been enough to get your weird ass off my back, but you still out here spewing all this mess about your feelings, and I’m as tired of hearing about this bullshit as much as the rest of this audience is, I already know. I’m tired of you poppin’ up any and everywhere. I’m done with you calling my phone, showing up at my house, sending me shit in the mail, all that mess. I’m sick of these games, bro, so if you could make whatever the fuck this is as quick as possible, I’d appreciate not having my time continue to be wasted. Sooner I can get you the fuck out of my life, the better. Maybe if I’m lucky, I won’t have to see your ass on Dynasty for much longer, either.
Eris LeCava: You heard me, didn’t you? I’m moving on, and there’s nothing you can do to change my mind! So don’t even try!
Serena Bennett:
Eris LeCava: Maybe you would have preferred if we went no contact post-breakup, but you’re very important to me, so it wouldn’t have been possible for me to just pretend that nothing ever happened between us! Not without a conversation. You deserve a proper goodbye.
Serena Bennett: “Goodbye?” Really? Now you completely over this shit all of a sudden? Just like that? :mjpls:
Eris LeCava: It took me a long time to make peace with it, but yes. It’s for the best, Serena. I’m going to miss you and your adorable little tushie more than you’ll ever know, but I have no other choice. This is what’s best for me–for us. I wish you all the happiness and success in the world! It breaks my heart that I won’t be there by your side to experience it all with you, like we planned, but that’s okay! It’s time I make my own plans for success, and focus on my own interests for a change. I really wish things didn’t have to escalate as far as they did, but it is what it is. I just hope you’ll look back on our time together as fondly as I will!
Serena Bennett: Uhuh, yeah, and you got nothing to say about me spazzing out on you last week? Nothing at all?
Eris LeCava: I forgive you for what you did, Serena. The past is in the past. I know you didn’t mean to hurt me–
Serena Bennett: No, I definitely did. :mjgrin: But it’s about goddamn time you decide to quit sticking ya nose in my damn business. I need your word you not gonna do that shit no more, Eris, or you gon’ be leaving EAW far worse than the way HBG left your tired ass, that’s a promise.
Eris LeCava: You didn’t have to bring her up! >.< But you have my word, Serena. Moving forward, you won’t ever hear another word about my love for you. You can consider this the last day you’ll be the woman on the receiving end of my love and devotion. I promise, ‘Rena. And for what it’s worth…I’m sorry. For EVERYTHING.
Serena Bennett: Music to my ears. Sounds great to me, sis. Just hope I can consider you a woman of your word.
(Eris nods her head in confirmation as Serena chucks her microphone on the mat. She backs away slowly towards the edge of the ring, keeping a close eye on Eris who simply smiles and waves at her. Serena releases a puff of air just as she turns her back on Eris to exit the ring, and–)
Stew-O: OH MY GOD!
(The virtual audience roars after watching as Eris quickly grabs hold of Serena’s arm. Serena is far too surprised to respond before Eris scoops Serena up over her shoulders, causing her to drop the UWC belt, and planting her firmly on the mat with a Samoan drop in the middle of the ring, the camera shaking from the impact.)
Flannery McCoy: ERIS LECAVA JUST PLANTED THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION WITH THE ANTIPSYCHOTIC! All that talk about ending things “amicably” just went right out the window, huh?!
Stew-O: Well, what did you think would happen?! Did you really ever expect Eris to allow Serena to just walk away from her?! ESPECIALLY after what happened last week? I should have known better than to expect anything peaceful to come with this face-to-face altercation!
(Eris is quick to her feet, a cold, blank expression reading plainly on her face as she stares down at Serena. She tilts her head to one side as she circles Serena who squirms at the center of the ring.)
Jake Mercer: AND SHE DOESN’T STOP THERE–Eris has grabbed a helpless Serena by the arms, positioning her in a surfboard position just before–THERE IT IS! RISPERIDONE! Eris stomping into Serena’s skull, planting her face-first into the mat to hit the surfboard facebuster! And the Universal Women’s Champion isn’t moving, she might be out cold!
(Eris kneels down and flips Serena over so that she’s laying flat on her back. Eris falls directly to her knees before reaching to grab the UWC belt that rests nearby. As she pulls the title closer to her, she throws one leg over Serena’s limp body, mounting her and prompting a deafening reaction from the virtual audience in attendance. Eris mumbles a few words to herself that the camera is unable to pick up, gripping Serena’s chin tightly before leaning down and planting an uncomfortably long kiss on her lips, once again indulging the audience’s perversion.)
(“Call Me” picks back up just as Eris pulls away from Serena’s lips, the UWC belt draped across both arms as she stares blankly into the face of the woman she claimed to once love.)
Flannery McCoy: My goodness, what a turn of events here tonight. I don’t even know how to make sense of most of this–was Eris’ interference at Road to Redemption REALLY based in love?
Jake Mercer: The fact that you’re still trying to make sense of a single thing Eris is doing–just stop right there, Flan. I told you guys weeks ago, this woman is unhinged! A certifiable PSYCHO! There’s NO rhyme or reason to anything she says or does. Let’s clear that up now.
Stew-O: Whether or not this was Eris’ plan all along or an impulsive act of defiance from Eris, I haven’t the slightest idea, to tell you the truth. Hopefully in time we come to better understand Eris’ motivations.
Flannery McCoy: One thing is for sure, though–Eris gripping onto that Universal Women’s Title as tightly as she is can’t be a good sign for Serena heading into King of Elite. But, as usual, it seems like we’ll have to wait a few more days for an actual answer! And I’m looking forward to see what comes of this!
(Eris, now standing, carefully drapes the title over Serena Bennett’s waist before she slips out of the ring and begins her way up the ramp. Eris LeCava tugs at her brown locks as she walks backwards up the ramp, watching Serena as she stirs in the ring before Dynasty’s broadcast fades to commercial.)
(A commercial for Rutgers Health Hospital located in Newark, New Jersey as it gives a tour of the facility before Myles bursts into the establishment and asks for more silicone to be pumped into his chest to prove he does have bigger boobs than the rest of the elitists)
(Dynasty returns from commercial break, the camera panning over to a smiling Stephie Love in the center of the ring, who has an EAW branded mic in hand.)
Stephie Love: The following contest is scheduled for..ONE FALL!!
Virtual Crowd: ONE FALL!!
(“Can You Feel My Heart” by Bring Me The Horizon blares throughout the World 1 Theatre as Mary S. Atlas steps through the curtain to receive a mixed reaction from fans. Mary stays on the stage area as “I Fought The Law” by The Clash replaces her theme and Mike Murphy makes his way from the curtain this time. Both competitors turn to one another and nod begin making their way towards the ring.)
Stephie Love: Introducing first! With a combined weight of 372 pounds..THE TEAM OF MIKE MURPHY AND MARY S. ATLAS!!
Stew-O: Tonight, we witness the team of Murphy and Atlas going up against the team of MITSUBACHI and Adam Lucas. Mike Murphy and Mary S. Atlas both being newcomers here in the landscape of EAW have a very big opportunity in proving themselves tonight.
Flannery McCoy: Exactly, tonight is the night for them to shine and possibly get themselves a foothold here on Dynasty. MITSUBACHI and Adam Lucas are gonna have their works cut out for them. You gotta counteract the power of Mike Murphy, but be ready for the speed Mary Atlas can bring to the ring as well.
Jake Mercer: Get real! MITSUBACHI and Adam Lucas stand no chance against someone like Mike Murphy! The only language he speaks is the one of violence, and he’s not a guy you want to meet in a dark alley. I know because I have before.
Stew-O: :comeagain: And how did that go?
Jake Mercer: Not good for me. :mjcry:
(“Akatsuki” by Babymetal kicks in, and out comes MITSUBACHI, who is flanked by his manager Komatsu Ogawa. The duo receive a positive reaction from the audience, but so does the man who’s theme plays next in Adam Lucas. “You Know My Name” by Chris Cornell plays the duo of MITSUBACHI and Lucas to the ring along with Ogawa.)
Stew-O: MITSUBACHI, and Adam Lucas, I think it’s safe to say that these guys are riding nothing but a huge wave of momentum. MITSUBACHI by making it to the semi-finals of the King of Elite Tournament on the Dynasty side, then Adam Lucas who just recently made his big return to Dynasty.
Flannery McCoy: Yeah, and he picked up right where he left off by going after the man who took him out before Road to Redemption: Limmy Monaghan.
Jake Mercer: Yeah, but Lucas soon learned that some things have changed around here including the arrival of the hottest faction in EAW today, Insurgency, who MITSU and Adam had a very intense altercation with earlier this evening!
Stew-O: Two members of said group in Maxwell and Donavan Duke would go on to attack Adam Lucas last week and caused the match to be thrown out right when it looked like Adam Lucas had the victory in place. Numbers game wouldn’t last long, however, because MITSUBACHI and Ogawa would be there to come to the aid of Adam Lucas and they would go on to clear the ring of Insurgency.
Flannery McCoy: Let’s see if these two are able to stand tall once again tonight, as they’re going to need to work on their chemistry once they take on two members of Insurgency at King of Elite, a match announced by StarrStan just this evening!
(Adam Lucas and Mike Murphy will seemingly be starting things off for their respective teams as the referee doesn’t take long to signal for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stew-O: Match is underway and Mike Murphy is going to immediately lock horns with Adam Lucas! The strength advantage of Murphy comes into play and Lucas gets backed into the corner.
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIV-
Stew-O: Murphy breaks off from Lucas, BEFORE SCORING A HUGE HAYMAKER THAT ROCKS LUCAS! And Murphy is unloading with strikes in the corner, I think he even just tagged Lucas with a headbutt there! Brutality on full display, and Adam is whipped into the opposite corner by Murphy! MIKE RUNS IN- LUCAS GETS THE BOOT UP! ADAM JUMPS TO THE MIDDLE ROPE, AND THROWS HIMSELF AT MURPHY! BUT MIKE CATCHES HIM AND RAGDOLLS LUCAS HALFWAY ACROSS THE RING WITH A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX! MIKE GOES FOR THE PIN!
Referee: ONNNEEEEEEE!!
TW-
Flannery McCoy: A bit too early to finish off Adam Lucas just yet. But Mike Murphy remains on the attack by stomping down on Lucas, and dragging him into his corner.
**TAG**
Flannery McCoy: There’s the tag from Mary! Atlas grabs at Lucas in the corner, BUT HE INSTANTLY FIRES WITH A BACK ELBOW THAT STAGGERS HER! LUCAS WITH A BACK ELBOW TO MIKE MURPHY THAT STUNS HIM ON THE APRON! Lucas is fighting out of that corner, ATLAS LOOKS TO PUT HIM DOWN WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK, LUCAS DUCKS AND MANAGES TO PUT HER DOWN WITH A DROPKICK!
Jake Mercer: Mary retreats into the corner after that dropkick, LUCAS COMES IN WITH A HUGE SPLASH IN THE CORNER! ADAM PULLS HER IN BY THE ARM AFTER THAT SPLASH AND PLANTS HER DOWN WITH A EMPHATIC SPINEBUSTER! LUCAS GONNA GO FOR A PIN OF HIS OWN!
Referee: ONNNNEEEEEE!!
TWWWWOOOOO-
Stew-O: Mary with a kickout of her own now. Atlas attempts to get back to her feet, but Adam wraps his arms around the waist of Mary. Could we be seeing a German Suplex?! NO! MARY WITH THE ELBOW THAT SLAMS BACK IN THE FACE OF LUCAS WEAKENS THE GRIP! Mary goes behind Adam Lucas now, GERMAN SUPLEX BY MARY THAT DROPS LUCAS RIGHT ON THE BACK OF HIS HEAD!
Flannery McCoy: The impact of that German has Adam reeling while on both knees. Mary capitalizes on the groggy opponents and puts him in a front facelock. MARY USES THE ROPE FOR ASSISTANCE AND SHE’S GONNA SPIKE LUCAS DOWN WITH A TORNADO DDT! LUCAS IS ABLE TO PLANT HIS FEET DOWN AND HOLD MARY IN THE AIR WHILE SHE ATTEMPTED TO SPIN HIM FOR THE DDT! BUT NOW LUCAS POPS ATLAS OFF HIS SHOULDER AND SHE GOES DOWN FACE FIRST ON THE MAT!
Jake Mercer: Lucas brings Atlas over to his corner and extends his hand for the tag!
**TAG!**
Jake Mercer: In comes MITSUBACHI, and this match just became five stars according to Mave Deltzer! Lucas and MITSUBACHI gonna showcase a little double team offense as Lucas snapmare Mary down, MITSUBACHI WITH A STIFF KICK RIGHT TO THE BACK OF MARY’S HEAD! LUCAS COMES OFF THE ROPES WITH A BIG DROPKICK TO THE FACE OF ATLAS! Lucas gets on the apron, and MITSUBACHI with a pin!
Referee: ONNNEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWOOOOOOO!!
Stew-O: MARY ATLAS GETS THE SHOULDER UP! MITSUBACHI now backing up away from Mary, and it looks like he’s setting up for something big as Mary slowly starts to get back to her feet! Could this be it for Mary S. Atlas!?
Flannery McCoy: Mary S. Atlas is on one knee, AND NOW MISTUBACHI CHARGES IN! TYRANT REVENGE-
Stew-O: MARY DUCKS UNDER THE RUNNING KNEE STRIKE!!! MARY AVOIDS THE TYRANT REVENGE, AND NOW SHE CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK! ACCIDENT BY PRINCESS CONNECTS AS BOTH COMPETITORS DROP TO THE MAT, BUT MARY JUST FELL ON TOP OF MITSUBACHI FOR THE COVER! SHE’S GONNA WIN THE MATCH FOR HER TEAM!
Referee: OOOOOONNNNEEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOOO!!!!
TTTTHHHHRRREEEEEEE-
Stew-O: MISTUBACHI JUST BARELY GETS THE SHOULDER UP BEFORE THREE! THAT WAS ALMOST THE END OF THE MATCH!
Flannery McCoy: Mary S. Atlas is on top of MITSUBACHI now and she’s punching away at him, doing what she can to try and keep the man down! Mary and Mike have been doing very good tonight even though they’re still relatively new to EAW, and now Mary brings MITSUBACHI towards her corner, BEFORE SENDING HIM SHOULDER FIRST INTO THE RING POST! Mary now with the tag to Mike Murphy, and it looks like Mike is waiting for MITSUBACHI to get out of the corner!
Jake Mercer: MITSUBACHI finally pulls himself out of the corner- JUST TO GET HIT WITH THE BANG A U-EY! THE DISCUS PUNCH CONNECTS ON MITSUBACHI, AND NOW MIKE MURPHY QUICKLY GOES FOR THE COVER! THAT’S IT! THAT HAS TO BE IT FOR MITSUBACHI!
Referee: OOOOONNNNEEEEE!!!!
TTTTTWWWWWOOOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEE-
Jake Mercer: THE ROPES!! MITSUBACHI BARELY GETS HIS FOOT ON TOP OF THE BOTTOM ROPE! That was extremely close! The match would’ve ended there if MITSUBACHI was just a foot away from those ropes, but instead this match continues! Mike and Mary can’t believe what just happened, but they know that they need to finish MITSUBACHI off so Mike immediately pulls MITSUBACHI to the center of the ring before picking him up!
Stew-O: Mike Murphy now, LIFTS MITSUBACHI UP FOR THE POWERBOMB- JUST FOR MITSUBACHI TO JUMP OUT OF IT! MISTUBACHI JUMPS OUT OF THE POWERBOMB AND IMMEDIATELY RUNS THE ROPES! TYRANT REVENGE CONNECTS!!! MITSUBACHI CONNECTS WITH THE RUNNING KNEE AND QUICKLY TAGS IN ADAM LUCAS!!
Flannery McCoy: Adam Lucas drags Mike Murphy up, AND HE SENDS HIM INTO THE ROPES BEFORE RESPONDING WITH THE POP UP POWERBOMB! MARY S. ATLAS RUNS INTO THE RING TO TRY AND BREAK IT UP, BUT MITSUBACHI IS STILL IN THE RING AND HE TAKES HER OUT WITH A SECOND TYRANT REVENGE!! ADAM LUCAS WITH THE COVER ON MIKE MURPHY!!
Referee: OOOONNNEEEEEEE!!!!
TTTWWWWWOOOOO!!!!
TTTHHHRRREEEEEEEE!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stephie Love: Here are your winners…. THE TEAM OF MITSUBACHIIIIII AND ADDAAMMM LUUCASSSS!!!!
(“You Know my Name” plays, and both Adam Lucas and MITSUBACHI get back to their feet while the crowd cheers. They have their hands raised by the referee while Mary S. Atlas and Mike Murphy roll out of the ring.)
Stew-O: And there it is! MITSUBACHI and Adam Lucas get the win, but what a fight that was by Mary S. Atlas and Mike Murphy! They did extremely well against two of Dynasty’s more established Elitists, and if they keep up this effort they’re sure to do great around here.
Flannery McCoy: Completely agree! There’s nothing for those two to feel bad about, but tonight was MITSUBACHI and Adam’s night. We could even be getting a glimpse of what’s to come at King of Elite when this team tries their luck against Maxwell and Donovan Duke, looking to get some payback after the weeks of sneak attacks members of Insurgency have put them through!
(MITSUBACHI and Lucas each pick a turnbuckle to pose over as “You Know My Name” continues to play. Dynasty eventually fades to commercial break.)
(A commercial promoting proper etiquette for attending a EAW show featuring multiple elitists as they’re seen enjoying themselves and playing video games in the locker room, compared to old footage from 2009 where the elitists of the past are seen injecting steroids into themselves and carrying guns and knives in their bags.)
(Dynasty comes back from commercial break and opens to the backstage area. Mary S. Atlas is seen making her way through the curtain leading to the arena to the backstage area as she’s handed a water and an ice pack to nurse her wounds from the match she just had as she sighs. She’s clearly not the happiest being on the losing side of the match but nonetheless, she pushes through as she begins to make her way through the backstage area. It isn’t long before she’s stopped by someone as she passes through as they put their hand out to block the way)
???: What’s got you so down sexy lady?
(Mary closed her eyes as she sighed before turning her head to look over at Jonny Airhart who looks back at her with a shiteating grin on his face. He positions himself in front of her as he puts a hand on her shoulder, which Mary quickly pushes away before attempting to walk away without saying a word)
Jonny Airhart: Woah woah, what’s the rush? I mean, I get it, I’m practically irresistible, but is it really that bad to run away from??? You know what, I’ll cut the crap, I know why you’re bummed out, you lost! I mean I get it, that shit sucks, it always does, but hey I know what can cheer you up, how about a drink? I mean I won my match tonight, I’m feeling a bit festive if you ask me. No woman has turned down my advances and guess what? They never regret it, guess that’s what a Rich Pretty Boy does to people ain’t that right? Just my flow, but enough of that, what do you say?
(Mary closes her eyes and takes a few deep breaths which concerns Jonny for a bit before she attempts to push through again)
Mary S. Atlas: No thanks-
Jonny Airhart: Oh come on!
(Jonny once again steps in front of her keeping that bright smile on his face as he does so)
Jonny Airhart: Are you really that stubborn? Is it because of what happened last time we met? If that’s the case, then I’m sorry. Is it what I said? I’m sorry, anything to make it up to a fine specimen like you. I can get you anything you want, what will make you feel better? Hell, what will make you loosen up to me? A drink? Got it, a car? Got it, a house? Got it, anything! I can give you literally anything in the world because I can and you’re about to turn that down? What would be the harm?
(Mary finally gave a sigh as she steps back and looks at him. Jonny shrugs his shoulders as Mary shakes her head and speaks from there)
Mary S. Atlas: I’ve already told you what you needed to do when we last met, it’s clear you didn’t listen to that. I told you to cut the narcissism, and you didn’t. My question is, where is that going to get you? Where is this Rich Pretty Boy stuff going to take you? Mind you, you were the person that was insisting that I was going to kneel for you, and here you are changing that demeanor and trying to make an advance on me?
Jonny Airhart: Now hold on let’s tone it down a bit, I get you’re not happy but that doesn’t mean you have to spew lies like that. I understand I might’ve, just a little bit, didn’t listen to you when you suggested those things to me, but what’s the problem with the sympathy I have right now? I think we should be focusing on that. I don’t give as much attention to women as I am to you right now.
Mary S. Atlas: I don’t think you get it, I don’t need to be, or actually want to be, anywhere near you. I have to worry about my own path and that’s making sure I win and succeed here. Sure it’s been a bit hard, but it’s nothing that I can’t overcome. I’ve been putting my best foot forward every week to make sure I win, and I have no time for distractions like this. So if you don’t mind, I’ll be taking my leave now.
Jonny Airhart: Wait-
Mary S. Atlas: If you mind taking my advice now, shut up.
(Jonny in a bit of shock, allowed Mary to push away and walk away from him as he blinked a few times before shaking his head)
Jonny Airhart: No woman has turned me down before…ever… no no that’s fine, I’ll get her next time.
(Jonny smiled from ear to ear as he strut away from the camera frame as Dynasty transitions elsewhere)
(Dynasty fades back into the World 1 Theatre as “Demi Gods” by Lab Rats & Slim Jim played up to cheers from the crowd as after a while, The Fallen Angel made his way out to the stage. He had a hood on as he took it off and looked out to the crowd before him. He then fixated his attention on the ring as from there he made his way down the ramp methodically. He stopped at the bottom of the ramp for a short moment before he went up the steel steps and entered into the ring. After being handed a mic from the timekeepers’ areas, “Demi Gods” fades out. After a moment of allowing the virtual audience to calm down, The Fallen Angel begins to speak.)
The Fallen Angel: I don’t think an explanation is owed for what I did on Dynasty last week, in my honest opinion, Charlie Marr brought it upon himself. All he needed to do really was mind his business, all he needed to do was back away from mine. But his delusions of grandeur instead, for some reason, gravitated himself towards me. He believes for some reason because he’s won this and that he can do whatever he likes around here. He can bring people down and make them seem absolutely worthless all to feed an ego which he says is all shelved away but we all know that he’s the same bitch that he’s always been. I haven’t been here long, but just hearing what he’s had to say to me these past few weeks has already told a tale in itself. Everyone else is below him, and nobody can tell him otherwise. I’ve been around here and I’ve done my fair share of things, in no way did I need the help of Charlie Marr whatsoever to get me places where I could already get to on my own, but here he came. He believed that he could take me under his wing and I believed that was a bunch of bullshit and I said it how it is. But he persisted, why did he persist? When the answer was going to be the same Charlie, I don’t know why you can’t see that. It’s unfortunate, how someone who has accomplished so much around here, could be so dumb enough to think that whatever he says goes.
But that’s the business for you, I’ve had my fair share of talking to people who think the same way just as he does, it’s nothing out of the ordinary, it’s nothing that should surprise you. That’s why I did what I did, to make him see that I don’t need his validation for anything, I don’t need to be anywhere near Charlie Marr actually, but we’ve been brought into this whole ordeal sadly that has led me to be entangled with him. Because I know he’s not the happiest person because of what I did after his match against Dray Fontana. He believes that Dynasty needs him and that anyone that stands in his way? Is just a problem isn’t that the case! But I wasn’t going to let him humiliate me like he did, try and paint me in a negative light like he did. I am going to make an impact one way or another, and while I’m not in the King of Elite tournament, I am headed towards King of Elite, and my plans are crystal clear now. I told you that the game begins tonight and I’ll make damn sure of it. King of Elite, February 13th to February 14th, I heard your calendars are free Charlie aren’t they? Consider this my challenge that I put out there for you then. You want to degrade me? You want to make me seem like I’m not a legitimate competitor for someone of your caliber? Then I’d love for you to prove just that on the battlefield. So what do you say Charlie? I’m not going to wait for next week, or the week after, I am going to sit right here. I am going to wait patiently till I see you come out and answer me, because I’m determined to get one out of you. And after what I did? I’m sure you’re seething anyways, might as well get this over with while we can.
(The Fallen Angel backed up and took a seat in a corner and got himself comfortable as he waited. After a long while “Bad Guy” by Morrisson played up to loud boos as a big smile would be seen on The Fallen Angel’s face, like music to his ears. After a long while, Charlie Marr was absolutely nowhere to be seen as that expression faded from his face before…)
Stew-O: CHARLIE! CHARLIE GRABBING THE FALLEN ANGEL FROM BEHIND AT RINGSIDE AS HE PULLS HIM OUT OF THE RING! HE’S GETTING PAYBACK FOR LAST WEEK!
Flannery McCoy: If there’s one thing that The Fallen Angel didn’t see coming it’s that as he attempts to get up, BUT CHARLIE WITH A KNEE STRIKE TO HIS HEAD TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! Charlie waiting for him to get back up as he runs towards him again!
Jake Mercer: But it’s The Fallen Angel pushes him towards the barricade as both of them are engaged in a fist fight as both of them have had enough of one another! Both of them are trading strikes as they’re tumbling all over ringside! The Fallen Angel shoving Charlie away as he recovers, BEFORE CHARLIE SPINS AROUND!
Stew-O: CHARING CROSS! DISCUS LARIAT TAKES THE FALLEN ANGEL DOWN TO THE GROUND! CHARLIE MARR HAS MADE HIS STATEMENT TONIGHT!
(Charlie immediately snatches a mic as he rolls back into the ring and paces around it as he looks down at The Fallen Angel before beginning to speak)
Charlie Marr: I hope you’re laying down comfortably down there because that’s the only form of solace you’ll be able to get these next few weeks. You’re saying I’ve done this to myself? No no, you must be mistaken, because I could say the same for you Fallen Angel, you wonder why? I was only trying to help you, elevate you beyond the heights that you’re at, the slum that you were dragged down to. I tried to help you because I saw what those losses did to you, it broke you, that was not the way to go about it. But you refused my help, and to make matters worse for yourself you dug yourself into a hole by attacking me after the match to prove what? That you’re a coward?
I was only trying to help you, just as I’m trying to do for the entirety of EAW. But apparently you can’t see that can you? It’s disappointing, I thought there was hope for someone like you, but what you’ve done these past few weeks have proven otherwise. I want to get myself back up to the level that I used to be at before and what better to do so then to wipe the floor with a ungrateful fuck like you. King of Elite? You want a match? You desire it? You really want to lose to me so badly that you’ll regret every single decision you’ve made in your entire life? Well unfortunately for you, consider it done.
(Charlie drops the mic down to the ground before the crowd begins to shower him in boos and “Bad Guy” plays up again. The Fallen Angel has made his way over to the bottom of the ramp while despite being hurt and trying to recover, he got the gist of what Charlie was saying, and that could only please him as he grabbed his head and had a big smirk on his face as he looked into the ring to him. Charlie took off the tanktop he had on as he stayed in the ring, preparing for the match he had up next as Dynasty faded out to a short commercial break)
(A commercial for Disney+ featuring Star Wars, you know, the company that supports when one person is getting bullied but ignores everything else happening, we support John Boyega :wow:)
(Dynasty comes back from commercial break as the camera is shown in the ring. “Bad Guy” by Morrisson continues to play alongside the boos of the crowd as Charlie Marr is already seen in the ring. Despite what happened earlier with The Fallen Angel, it doesn’t deter him as he prepares for his match tonight. It pans over to Stephie Love at the center of the ring as she smiles brightly before beginning to speak)
Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
Stephie Love: Introducing first… from Tower Hamlets, London, United Kingdom… weighing in at 240 pounds… THE CONSCIENCE OF EAW… CHARLIE MARR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: Well it was very hectic today for Charlie Marr when last week after winning his match against Dray Fontana he was attacked by none other than The Fallen Angel, someone who he ticked off earlier in the night just as he did the week before.
Flannery McCoy: Well before the commercial break a brawl ensued between the both of them which led to the announcement of their match at King of Elite! I’m sure Charlie has been waiting for that and he needs to give The Fallen Angel a reminder tonight of who he is and what he’s done in EAW, and what better to do so then to beat a reigning Champion? I’m sure that’s something that Charlie would want very fondly.
Jake Mercer: BIG DICK BHARLIE! HE’S HERE!
Stew-O & Flannery McCoy: :comeagain:
Jake Mercer: That’s what they used to call him damn, give me a break for once. Just because I’m smart doesn’t mean you have to make fun of me every chance you get.
(From there “Bad Guy” fades out as “Daigyakuten” by Yuki Hayashi starts to blast through the arena speakers with loud cheers from the crowd in response. Harper Lee energetically makes her way out to the stage as she has the Unified Tag Team Championship around her waist. She spreads her arms out with a bright smile before taking her half of the title and raising in the air before making her way to the ring)
Stephie Love: And his opponent… from Charlotte, North Carolina… weighing in at 118 pounds… SHE IS ONE-HALF OF THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… THE INVINCIBLE… HARPER LEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: As for Harper last week The Realm took a visit to New York to make a statement to The Blicky Boyz and show why New York needs new leaders, and what better than The Realm? They seem to be as confident as ever heading into King of Elite where they defend their titles against them, and with the caliber they’re at, that’s something that you’re going to need.
Flannery McCoy: Optimism is the best weapon, but that doesn’t mean heading into it that she needs to rack up wins to pose The Realm has tough competition as they pride themselves on. And I think she finds herself in the perfect position to do so tonight.
Jake Mercer: I’ll have you know I’m rooting for Harper tonight. I recently found her Twitch channel and tier 3 subbed to it! Harper Army, we move! :blessed:
(Harper circles around the ring before jumping up onto the apron and entering in. She makes her way to the center of the ring as she raises the Unified Tag Team Championship high above her head as the crowd cheers loudly. Harper makes her way over to her corner and looks across to her opponent as she begins to prepare before ‘Daigyakuten’ fades out and the Ref signals for the bell)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stew-O: Here we go as this match is underway! AND HARPER RUSHES FORWARD AND LEAPS UP AS SHE TAKES CHARLIE DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A CLOTHESLINE! Charlie definitely did not expect that as he stumbles back up to his feet but Harper is waiting for him as he turns around, HARPER WITH A BICYCLE KNEE TO THE SKULL OF CHARLIE MARR FOR HIS TROUBLES!
Flannery McCoy: Harper coming into this matchup tonight with pure adrenaline as Charlie stumbles back up, but Harper already grabs him by the arm as she sends him to the corner! Charlie backed up as he’s trying to refocus his attention on Harper, BUT SHE RUNS TOWARDS HIM WITH A CORNER CLOTHESLINE!
Jake Mercer: Which Charlie barely moves out of the way from! Charlie turning Harper around as he makes her take his place and shoves her into the corner! Charlie now completely unloading on Harper with punches raining down onto her face forcing her down to a seated position as this allows Charlie to separate and move back just for a moment to recollect himself. AS HE RUNS TOWARDS HARPER AND CONNECTS WITH A KNEE DRIVEN INTO THE FACE OF HARPER!
Stew-O: Charlie grabbing Harper by the head now as he brings her back up, AND GOES FOR A QUICK SCOOP SLAM WHICH DROPS HARPER BACK DOWN! Harper is definitely feeling it as she sits back up, but Charlie grabbing her by her hair and dragging her up to his feet as he pulls her in! AND LIFTS HER OFF THE GROUND BEFORE DROPPING HER DOWN INTO A SIT-OUT POWERBOMB AS HE GOES FOR AN EARLY PIN ATTEMPT!
Referee: OOONNNEEE!!!
Flannery McCoy: BUT HARPER POWERS OUT BEFORE TWO! Charlie pushing her away which allows him to get back up to his feet as Harper follows, AS CHARLIE RUNS FORWARD AND GOES FOR ANOTHER KNEE TO HER SKULL TO TAKE HER BACK DOWN! But Harper barely skims it as she pushes his knee away and rolls backwards to get herself back up to her feet! Charlie is in pure confusion as he turns around and makes his way over to Harper, BUT HARPER LEAPS UP INTO THE AIR AND TAKES CHARLIE DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A QUICK DROPKICK!
Jake Mercer: Charlie falls down to a seated position as Harper moves back and rebounds off the ropes, AS SHE GOES FOR A PENALTY KICK! But Charlie manages to grab the leg and keeps ahold of it as he gets back up to his feet, BUT HARPER WITH AN ENZUIGIRI TO THE SIDE OF HIS HEAD TO COUNTER! Charlie falling down to the ground as Harper grabs him by the head and throws him to the ropes and back, BUT CHARLIE TAKES CONTROL AS HE TAKES HARPER DOWN WITH A RUNNING LARIAT!
Stew-O: Charlie circling around Harper now as he grabs her by the arm and drags her back up to her feet, AND TAKES HER BACK DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH ANOTHER LARIAT FOR GOOD MEASURE! Charlie waiting for Harper to get up now as Harper clearly did not expect Charlie to retaliate that much as she plants herself up to a knee, AS CHARLIE KICKS HER DEAD IN THE FACE AND TAKES HER BACK DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Flannery McCoy: Harper trying to get back up again, BUT IT’S CHARLIE THAT STOMPS DOWN ON HER CHEST TO TAKE HER BACK DOWN! Charlie trying to keep her down as long as possible to collect himself as Harper is beginning to fight beginning to plant herself back up to a knee as she looks up, AS CHARLIE RUNS FORWARD AND GOES FOR ANOTHER KICK TO HER FACE!
Jake Mercer: BUT HARPER TAKES CHARLIE DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A DROP TOE HOLD! Charlie kicking her away and beginning to get up but I think this is giving enough time for Harper to get back up to her feet, AS CHARLIE TURNS AROUND AND ATTEMPTS A BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX! But Harper slips through and slams a elbow to the side of his head as she forces him to let go! Harper sending Charlie into an Irish whip once more, AS SHE GOES FOR AN HURRICANRANA!
Stew-O: BUT CHARLIE KEEPS HER UP IN THE AIR AND SPINS AROUND AS HE DROPS HER DOWN INTO A FRONT POWERSLAM! PIN ATTEMPT!
Referee: OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO-
Flannery McCoy: BUT HARPER KICKS OUT! Charlie immediately getting back up to his feet as he’s grabbing Harper by her head and shoving her into the corner, as Charlie is just caving a hole into her chest now with multiple stomps relentlessly as Harper is trying to fight back and block the stomps but Charlie is continuing nonstop before he stops before the Ref is forced to intervene! Harper is stunned as she’s attempting to pull herself out of the corner, BUT CHARLIE RUNS FORWARD AND GOES FOR A KNEE STRIKE TOWARDS HER HEAD AGAIN!
Jake Mercer: But Harper saw that coming as she grabs onto the bottom rope and tumbles out of the ring leaving nobody home for Charlie to connect with! Charlie is confused as he’s focuses his attention on Harper outside the ring, BUT BEFORE HE CAN DO ANYTHING HARPER GRABS HIM BY THE LEGS AND PULLS HIM OUT OF THE RING!
Stew-O: Charlie falling down to the ground as he attempts to get up to his feet, BUT HARPER RUNS FORWARD AND PUSHES HIM SPINEFIRST INTO THE EDGE OF OUR ANNOUNCERS TABLE! Harper turning him around now, AS SHE LOOKS TO SLAM HIM FACE FIRST INTO THE TABLE AS WELL!
Flannery McCoy: But Charlie puts his hands out barely avoiding it, AS HE GRABS HARPER BY HER HEAD AND RETURNS THE FAVOR AS HER HEAD BOUNCES OFF OUR TABLE AND DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Referee: OONNEE!!
TTWWOO!!
Jake Mercer: And the count begins as Charlie grabs Harper by her head and drags her around the ring before he sets his sights, AND THROWS HER HEADFIRST INTO THE RINGPOST! Charlie taking advantage of an environment outside of the ring which he can use to his advantage as he brings Harper back up once more, AND THROWS HER INTO THE BARRICADE WITH AUTHORITY!
Referee: TTHHRREEEE!!

(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Bad Guy” plays up once more as Charlie Marr gets back up to his feet. A big smirk is seen on his face as the Ref makes his way over and raises Charlie’s hand in victory as he does so. Charlie climbs up to the top rope as he spreads his arms out before yelling to the crowd as they would continue to boo him no matter what he was saying to them as he continued to celebrate his victory)
Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner… CHARLIE MARR!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: What a match tonight between these two competitors! Harper gave it her all and pushed a former World Champion to his absolute limits tonight in hopes of getting a big win heading into King of Elite. But in the end it was Charlie Marr that managed to outsmart her and get the win tonight and I’m sure that has made him happy.
Flannery McCoy: And I’m sure The Fallen Angel is watching closely after what happened before the match tonight as despite the victory he still has his eyes on Charlie tonight. Charlie Marr has made a statement heading into King of Elite that it will, and always will be, a tough challenge to take down The Conscience of EAW on any given date. Congratulations Charlie!
(The last shot is Charlie looking at Harper who is beginning to recover as Charlie can only shrug as he drops down and rolls out of the ring. As he raises his arms high in the air, Dynasty fades out to commercial break)
(A commercial for Spotify where Bronson Daniels is seen looping Romanian holiday songs for 10 straight hours)
(We open up to the inside of the Arena, as we see Mr. DEDEDE and Veena Adams standing outside of the ring at ringside. The two are leaned up against the thinly padded barricade with their arms crossed. Veena can be seen talking DEDEDE’s ear off, his arms folded tightly across his chest as he prepares to watch this upcoming match.)
(“Gimme More” by Britney Spears hits, as Riley McCray steps out onto the stage. The fans cheer her loudly, as she makes her way down the ramp and towards the ring. She stares at Veena Adams the entire time.)
Stephie Love: The following contest is set for one fall! Making her way to the ring.. From Trenton, New Jersey.. Weighing in at 126lbs.. She is RAD RILEY MCCRAY!!!!
Stew-O: As you all know, this back and forth between Riley McCray and Veena Adams continues on. Last week, the two teamed up in one of the more surprising tag team victories as they ended up beating Serena Bennett and Chris Elite even with all of the tension between the two. They then exchanged a passive aggressive back and forth backstage with Veena acting as if she wasn’t even aware of Riley’s presence on the team.
(“GATTI” by JACKBOYS and Pop Smoke hits, as Andre Walker steps out onto the stage with his New Breed Championship around his waist. The crowd stays loud for the champion as they cheer him on down to the ring. He stares at Mr. DEDEDE the entire time)
Stephie Love: And her opponent.. From Brooklyn, New York!! Weighing in at 185lbs!! He is the EAW New Breed Champion!! THE NOTORIOUS!! ANDRE WALKER!!
Flannery McCoy: Last week, Mr. DEDEDE praised Andre Walker for opening his eyes after Walker’s comments the week before. DEDEDE seemed as if he was cool with Walker, and even offered a handshake, but soon after it was DEDEDE who cheap shotted Andre with a spear, telling Walker to stay in his lane. The Champion definitely looking to show out in front of DEDEDE tonight.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stew-O: There’s the bell and this one is underway! Riley McCray charges in at the EAW New Breed Champion as both competitors tie up! Andre gets the upper hand quickly however, as he connects with a knee to the abdomen before taking Riley down with a headlock takedown!! Andre squeezes the neck of Riley McCray, but she’s able to belly out and work up to her knees. Andre still has the side headlock locked in, but Riley with a quick elbow shot to the abdomen!! Another!! And another!! Andre’s grip on Riley loosens, as she shoves Andre off and sends him over to the side ropes!! He bounces back.. SPINNING BACK HEEL KICK BY RILEY MCCRAY ONTO THE RUNNING ANDRE WA-
Flannery McCoy: NO HE DUCKED UNDERNEATH THE LEG OF RILEY MCCRAY!! Andre is behind Riley now.. And he connects with a snap kick to the spine of McCray!! Riley clutches at her back as she still faces away from Andre.. But Walker with a quick superkick to the back of the head to follow up with his spine kick connects!! Riley drops down to her knees, then down onto her hands as she begins to breathe heavily. The New Breed Champion has come out firing away early on in this match!!
(Veena Adams and Mr. DEDEDE are seen on the screen with a smile on their faces. Veena in particular, as she enjoys Riley struggling against the New Breed Champion. DEDEDE smiling because he knows Andre is pushing extra hard due to his presence at ringside)
Flannery McCoy: I don’t understand how Riley McCray can compete against the New Breed Champion tonight when she knows that Veena Adams is watching her every move. There’s definitely a lot on Riley’s mind right now, and with Veena staring her down from ringside with Uncle DEDEDE, that has to be one of the things on her mind right now too!
Jake Mercer: She doesn’t care about Veena right now. She’s up against the New Breed Champion! Veena is just watching this match like all of the virtual fans in attendance. Just like you and me at commentary.. That’s why Andre is doing so well, because he doesn’t care that Mr. DEDEDE is out there.
Stew-O: Riley McCray still down on her hands and knees, but she eventually gets up to her feet… BUT ANDRE CHARGES IN WITH A RUNNING FOREARM SHOT TO THE FACE!!! NO!! Riley McCray manages to evade the attack as she reaches and grabs his arm!! She pulls him in.. DO IT ALL FOR KICKS!!! THE FOOT STOMP FACE BREAKER CONNECTS AS SHE PULLS ANDRE’S JAW RIGHT INTO HER BOOT WITH FULL FORCE!! Andre drops down to the canvas in tremendous pain, as Riley McCray stands up in the ring and looks back at The Adams with a bright smile!
(On the screen, we can see Mr. DEDEDE brushing his hair back with his eyes wide open, smiling at the fact that Andre Walker has been taken down. The camera also shows Veena Adams, however, unlike Mr. DEDEDE she looks pretty pissed that Riley has started to build some momentum, and isn’t afraid to show it.)
Stew-O: Riley winks out to Veena Adams after hitting that footstomp face breaker. Riley quickly makes her way over to Andre who is down on the canvas, still holding his jaw. The New Breed Champion is belly down in the ring, and Riley takes advantage of that as she stomps down onto his lower back before getting on top of him and locking in the cobra clutch!! The cobra clutch is locked in, and this is one of the moves that puts a tremendous amount of pressure on the lower back while also stretching the core beyond the point of comfort!! Riley is pulling back hard, as she stares directly at Veena the entire time she has this move locked in!!
Flannery McCoy: Andre Walker is struggling right now, but he isn’t panicking. The New Breed Champion analyzes the situation he’s in and does what he needs to do, by forcing his right leg up!! He alleviates some of the pressure from his lower back before bringing his left leg up and tucking both legs under his body!! Andre now begins to stand up with Riley still holding his head from behind him!! Andre reaches back.. SNAPMARE!! THE SNAPMARE CONNECTS, AS RILEY LANDS ON HER BUTT IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!! Andre then follows up with a snap kick right onto Riley’s back as she instantly falls to the mat! Andre hooks the legs and goes for the pin!!
Referee: ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
THHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRR-
Jake Mercer: Kickout by Riley McCray!! On the outside, Veena is clapping for Riley! See, Riley has nothing to worry about!
Flannery McCoy: I don’t think that’s what is going on here Jake.
(We can see Veena Adams making a condescending look towards Riley McCray as Adams lightly claps for Riley’s efforts to kick out in a very sarcastic way.)
Stew-O: Andre Walker gets back up to his feet and grabs Riley McCray by the head and hair. He brings her up to her feet too, and Irish Whips her towards the ropes!! Riley charges towards the ropes, but she doesn’t bounce back as she hangs onto those top ropes! Andre charges in at her with a running lariat!! And it connects as both Riley and Andre go flying over the top rope and down to the ringside floor!!!
(Mr. DEDEDE and Veena Adams are seen stepping towards Riley McCray and Andre Walker. They get a closer look at the two individuals they are scouting out here tonight.)
Jake Mercer: Andre Walker is the first to his feet-
Flannery McCoy: That’s Riley McCray, Jake..
Jake Mercer: Oh yeah, you’re right.. He did seem a little shorter to me..
Flannery McCoy: But yes, Riley McCray is back up to her feet, and she steps up to Veena Adams! The two of them stare each other down as we can tell that the tension is rising between these two tough women!! WAIT A SECOND!! IT’S ANDRE WALKER!! ANDRE. SPINS RILEY AROUND AND CONNECTS WITH A SNAP DDT DOWN ONTO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR!!! Andre stands right back up and steps up to Mr. DEDEDE now as now it’s those two who are staring each other down.
Andre Walker (Off-Mic): You’re gonna pay for that cheap shot from last week DEDEDE. The time is coming, and I won’t hesitate to take you out..
(Andre Walker shoves Mr. DEDEDE then backs away. Mr. DEDEDE is about to charge in at Andre Walker, but Veena quickly stops him and holds him back. DEDEDE looks off to the side and brushes it off, as Andre Walker turns around.)
Stew-O: RI BUSTER!!!! DOUBLE KNEE FACE BUSTER!!! ANDRE IS DOWN AT RINGSIDE!!! ANDRE IS DOWN AT RINGSIDE!!!!
Referee: One.. Two.. Three.. Four.. Five.. Six.. Seven.. Eight…
Flannery McCoy: And Riley McCray quickly grabs Andre’s limp body and slides him into the ring!!!
Referee: Nine..
Stew-O: Riley beats the count as she slides right in!! Andre is still down, as Riley makes her way up to her feet. Riley reaches down and grabs Andre Walker before bringing him up to his feet too! Riley goes for the.. THE COURT OF LAW!!! SHE STARTS WITH THE STO-
Flannery McCoy: NO!! Look! It’s Veena Adams on the ring apron!! Veena just hopped onto the ring apron behind the referee, and Riley McCray no longer attempts the move!! Riley shoves Andre off to the side, as she begins to walk towards Veena! The referee turns around, but before he does, Veena ends up jumping back down to the ringside floor!! Riley and Veena are exchanging words with each other- WAIT!!! FROM BEHIND RILEY!!! IT’S ANDRE!! The New Breed Champion spins Riley all the way around and kicks her in the stomach!! He pulls her in… THUNDERBOLT TEMPO!!! THE BRAINBUSTER BY ANDRE WALKER CONNECTS ONTO THE DISTRACTED RILEY MCCRAY!!! ANDRE WALKER DROPS DOWN AND GOES FOR THE PIN!!!
Referee: ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
THHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“GATTI” by JACKBOYS and Pop Smoke hits, as Andre Walker rises up to his feet and is handed his EAW New Breed Championship. The Virtual Crowd cheers heavily as the referee raises his hand in the air.)
Stephie Love: Here is your winner.. ANDRE WALKER!!!
Stew-O: What a match between Walker and McCray, but in the end it was the distraction by Veena Adams that cost Walker the match.
Flannery McCoy: At the same time, you can’t ignore the distraction Mr. DEDEDE was for Andre tonight as the two nearly went at it before this match was even over. Nonetheless, this was a big win for Andre as he came out on top against a tough Riley McCray.
(The screen shows Andre Walker raising his New Breed Championship high in the air as he looks down at Mr. DEDEDE at ringside. We also see Veena Adams smiling at the broken and beaten Riley McCray. The screen then fades to black)
(A commercial for the next episode of Sunday Night Voltage where Jake Smith and Sierra Bradford will be in action against one another, it’s funny how they both seem like the same person)
[SCREENBAR – Disney World, Orlando, Florida]
(The camera opens up to Chris Elite and Malcolm Jones walking around Disney World in a prerecorded video that obviously took place earlier in the week. Chris Elite is holding a microphone in his hand, but Malcolm doesn’t do the same as he doesn’t share the same enthusiasm as Chris. In fact, Malcolm looks a bit bothered seeing the huge grin on Chris’ face. After a few moments of walking around, Malcolm finally begins to speak up.)
Malcolm Jones: Did you deadass take me here just to respond to whatever the fuck the Realm did a few days ago?
Chris Elite: Bitch you coulda said no- I mean, I think this will be a very valuable use of our time and I’m sure we’ll enjoy ourselves .
Malcolm Jones: No, no no no. Don’t even fucking start with that positivity bullshit. It was already annoying as shit on Sunday.
Chris Elite: :whoa: Okay damn. Look we don’t even gotta be here long if you don’t want to. Can you atleast play along until then? You didn’t even bring the mic I gave you.
Malcolm Jones: Whatever. You got all of Disney World to interview, go wild.
Chris Elite: :blessed:
(Seeing as they’re at Disney World, even if it’s not as crowded as it’d be under usual circumstances there’s still a good amount of people there. This means that it doesn’t take long for Chris and Malcolm to run into someone, and it turns out to be a family of three. A little girl who is with her mother and father. Chris immediately goes and stops them, and Malcolm shakes his head seeing Chris prepare to interview the family.)
Father: Is everything okay? :lupe:
Chris Elite: Yeah yeah, but uh.. Y’all know who them Realm bitches are right?
Father: :comeagain:
Mother: excuse me?
Child:
Chris Elite: Ight, as expected y’all two don’t. Don’t even blame you either, you’re way better off that way.
(Chris then lowers the microphone to the little girl.)
Chris Elite: How ‘bout you? You ever heard of the Realm?
Child:
Mother: Sir.. She’s three years old.
Chris Elite: And? She should know more than anyone then.
Child:
Malcolm Jones: Damn. Even their targeted demographic doesn’t know who the fuck they are. We done here?
Chris Elite: :skip: We just got here.
(The family begins to walk away from the scene as the mother just shakes her head in disapproval, leaving Chris and Malcolm left behind.)
Chris Elite: We prolly should’ve told them about EAW first, huh?
Malcolm Jones: You know you really fuckin’ suck at this.
Chris Elite: Ight, you do better then.
(Chris gives the microphone to Malcolm before pointing towards a teenager that seems to be with some of his friends. Malcolm simply shrugs before walking up to the group alongside Chris, and as they do so the teen turns towards them.)
Malcolm Jones: Ight, I’mma keep this short. I’m Malcolm Jones, that’s Chris Elite, and we work for Elite Answers Wrestling. You know what that is?
Teenager: Uh.. Yeah actually. I think I actually know you guys. You faced each other like two years in a row at the Pain for Pride show right?
Malcolm Jones: That’s us. Now, you ever heard of “The Realm”..?
Teenager: Hmm…
(The teenager takes a second to think, and Malcolm looks at Chris seeing as this is going better than the last “interview” did.)
Teenager: Oh yeah, that’s that little PG stable right? The one with the girls that kinda act like kids?
Malcolm Jones: The bland white bitches yes.
Teenager: Yeah I know who they are, why?
Malcolm Jones: Ight, you’re being recorded right now. Say whatever the fuck you think about them.
Teenager: Well.. What am I supposed to say? I kinda feel like I’m being put on the spot here. Can I say whatever I want?
Malcolm Jones: Yes just say something damn.
Teenager: Well I think their act is kinda weird. I mean I’m only here at Disney World because I’m with my friends and there’s some cool stuff to do, but aren’t those like.. Grown women? I think their thing is just a little weird, you know? Acting like kids when you’re clearly past that age.
Malcolm Jones: Ight, bet. Thanks for your time.
Teenager: No problem, nice to meet you two!
(Malcolm and Chris walk away from the teen, who immediately goes to tell his friends about what just happened. Meanwhile, Chris doesn’t look as amused as he did before.)
Malcolm Jones: So…?
Chris Elite: Fuck you want me to say? You got lucky, he actually watched wrestling.
Malcolm Jones: I also didn’t try to interview someone who can’t even speak yet.
Chris Elite: Bro, they should know the Realm better than anyone else. Not my fault even the little shits don’t know who these bitches are. You just gotta trust me, watch this.
(Malcolm sighs as Chris takes the microphone and quickly runs up to a mother who’s with both her son and daughter. The son looks to be about 13 years old, and the daughter around 10. Chris doesn’t even waste any time asking their mom and instead just goes up to the daughter.)
Chris Elite: Yo, have any of you ever heard of the Realm? Elite Answers Wrestling tag team? Soon to be former Tag Champs?
Daughter: Yeah! The Realm is the best!
Son: No they’re not! The Realm sucks!
(Chris immediately turns to Malcolm and begins laughing.)
Chris Elite: HA! I TOLD YOU IT’D WORK! ONLY LITTLE SH- I mean.. ONLY LITTLE KIDS GIVE A FUCK ABOUT THEM!
Malcolm Jones: Bro don’t pay attention to me, they’re the ones leaving.
(Chris notices the mother taking her kids away, and he immediately runs back up to them to continue his interview with them.)
Chris Elite: Woah woah woah, I’m not done yet. You, you said you don’t like the b- I mean, the Realm, right? Why not?
Son: They’re not cool at all! I don’t want them to be Champions!
Chris Elite: :notbad: Ight bet, well guess what?
Son: What?
Chris Elite: Me and Malcolm over there are gonna take their Championships from them, okay?
Daughter: WHAT??? NO!!! NO! NO! NO!
Son: SHUT UP!! YES WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIPS!!
Daughter: NO!!! I LOVE THE REALM!!
Mother:… I’m so sorry.
(The mother finally takes the kids away, and Chris just takes a deep breath as Malcolm finally reapproaches the scene.)
Malcolm Jones: How’d it go?
Chris Elite: Good, but…. Holy shit kids are fucking annoying.
Malcolm Jones: Ight well, you made your statement or whatever right? We’re gonna win the Unified Tag Titles at King of Elite, and that’s that. Can we finally go?
Chris Elite: Nah nah nah, I just got a reeeaally good idea.
Malcolm Jones: Bro what the fuck else do you want? You already had us go to fucking Florida just to do this dumb shit. What’s next? Gonna meet the creators of the Powerpuff Girls?
Chris Elite: Why would I do all that?
Malcolm Jones: ….
Chris Elite: Anyways, the white bitches thought they did something going to New York to try and interview a bunch of strangers-
Malcolm Jones: Didn’t we just do the same shit?
Chris Elite: Bro let me finish damn. Anyways, why don’t we just go talk to Mickey Mouse? He’s like their God or some shit right?
Malcolm Jones: ….. You know what? There’s really no fucking point in arguing with you anymore. Let’s just do it so we can go.
(After finally agreeing to speak to Mickey Mouse, Chris and Malcolm finally walk away from the scene. The camera cuts to a little while later, where they finally see Mickey with a crowd of people looking to take a picture. Chris and Malcolm immediately push past a lot of the people as the cameraman follows along, before finally reaching Mickey himself.)
Chris Elite: Finally. Anyways, I’m Chris Elite and that’s my lil bro Malcolm Jones-
Malcolm Jones: Don’t even start that shit. Anyways, you know about Elite Answers Wrestling?
(Mickey simply looks between the two men, not actually saying anything.)
Malcolm Jones: EAW. Elite Answers Wrestling. Probably the best wrestling promotion on the planet?
(Mickey remains silent.)
Chris Elite: You know it’s disrespectful as hell to ignore people when they’re talking to you, right?
(Mickey looks at Chris.)
Mickey Mouse: Picture?
Chris Elite: Bro.. ELITE. ANSWERS. WRESTLING. E-A-W. Have you ever heard of a tag team called the Realm? Bland brown haired bitch and short blonde bitch.
Mickey Mouse: …..Want a picture? :lupe:
Malcolm Jones: Bro we clearly wasted our damn time. I fucking knew I shouldn’t have listened to your dumbass.
Chris Elite: :comeagain: How the fuck was I supposed know he’d be this fucking stupid? Look. Mickey. I’mma ask ONE more time. Do you know who the Realm is? Unified Tag Team Champions? There’s some questions I want to ask you about them-
Mickey Mouse: Picture.
(At this point Chris is fed up, as he immediately drops his microphone and then floors Mickey with a Box Office Smash.)
Malcolm Jones: :ohhh:
(Chris takes the Mickey head off of the Disney World worker and begins punching away at him. Before long a bunch of security guards show up, and Malcolm pulls Chris off of the worker. Before leaving the area though, Malcolm grabs the worker and throws him into the security guards, giving them more time to leave.)
(The camera finally cuts to Malcolm and Chris outside of Disney World, away from both Mickey and the security guards. The camera is right in front of the two, and Chris catches his breath before finally beginning to speak.)
Chris Elite: You see that? That’s exactly what’s about to fucking happen to the Realm at King of Elite. There’s not gonna be any interviews or jokes or none of that shit, we’re walking into King of Elite as Grand Prix winners and walking out as Unified Tag Team Champions.
Malcolm Jones: That’s the smartest thing you said this entire time. ‘Bout fuckin’ time. I never wanted to do any of this dumb shit in the first place. It’s just a huge waste of time all for something inevitable. Everybody with common sense knew we were winning those titles as soon as we stepped foot in the Grand Prix tournament. Now if wasting other people’s time and fucking staff members up is all we came here to do, I’m ready to fuckin’ go.
Chris Elite: Alright, damn.
(Chris and Malcolm finally walk away from the scene, and as they do so the broadcast fades elsewhere.)
(Dynasty fades back to the World 1 Theatre as Stephie Love is seen in the middle of the ring with a smile on her face as she begins to speak)
Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(“Invincible” by Pop Smoke plays up to a mixed reaction from the crowd as Chris Elite makes his way out to the stage. He circles around the stage with a straight look on his face as he poses at the center of the stage as he looks around at the crowd. After that he focuses on the ring before making his way down the ramp headed towards it.)
Stephie Love: Introducing first… from Brooklyn, New York… weighing in at 210 pounds… GAWD GIVEN GREATNESS… BIG BHRIS ELITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Flannery McCoy: I don’t even know how to make sense of what we just saw…
Jake Mercer: JUSTICE FOR MICKEY!
Stew-O: Last week, due to the interference of Eris LeCava, Chris Elite was on the losing side of the tag team match partnered with Serena Bennett versus Veena Adams and Riley McCray. I’m sure that has either done one of two things, angered Chris, or motivated him even more. :lupe:
Flannery McCoy: Well he needs to come in full steam ahead heading into King of Elite if he wants to win the Unified Tag Team Championships and what better to do tonight than to beat a Champion just like he plans to do at the FPV? Definitely a realm of possibilities right now.
Jake Mercer: Hah! I get that REALM of possibilities. Pure genius Flan.
Flannery McCoy: I do not care.
Jake Mercer: :mjcry:
(Chris slides into the ring as he takes a turn and climbs up to the top rope and looks around once more. He poses on the top rope before jumping off and circling around the ring one more time before he finds himself in his corner. He gets prepared as “Invincible” fades out from there. “Apple Seed” by Hiroyuki Sawano played up from there to loud boos as Limmy Monaghan made his way out to the stage with the PURE Championship over his shoulder. He looks to the camera with a smirk before showing off his Championship towards it. He spreads his arms out holding the Championship in one hand to the boos of the crowd as he heads to the ring)
Stephie Love: And his opponent… from Glasgow, Scotland… weighing in at 207 pounds… he is the PURE CHAMPION… THE PURE KING… LIMMY MONAGHAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stew-O: As for Limmy he’s been through a bit of a rough patch heading into 2021. Last week his match against Adam Lucas ended with Insurgency attacking him before MITSU and Ogawa came in to fend them off, which clearly left a sour taste in Limmy’s mouth.
Flannery McCoy: He’s out for redemption, hell dare I say a win to his name and he’s determined to do so tonight heading into this match there is absolutely no doubt in my head for that. What better than the competition that he has across from the ring tonight, if Limmy could get a win like this? This could be a major win under his belt for sure.
Jake Mercer: Oh come on we all know he’s just one big pussy. One match here, one Insurgency interference here, it’s just a bunch of bullshit! Predictable from a fan standpoint, in my honest opinion, they should hire me for more than just a commentator gig. :wow:
(Limmy circles around the ring once before making his way up the steel steps and onto the apron, looking at the PURE Championship before entering into the ring and climbing up to the top rope. He looks at the title before raising it up in the air as he jumps down and makes his way over to his corner as ‘Apple Seed’ fades out and the Ref signals for the bell)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stew-O: Here we go as this highly anticipated matchup is underway! Both of them begin to circle around the ring as I think they’re looking for the collar-and-elbow to start off this match! BUT LIMMY ADVANCES FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH A STIFF FOREARM TO THE FACE OF CHRIS SENDING HIM DOWN TO A KNEE! Now it’s on as Limmy shoves him down to the ground, and begins to send lefts and rights towards his head! Limmy absolutely not stopping out of pure determination as the Ref is forced to come in and seperate the two as Chris stumbles back up to his feet!
Flannery McCoy: BUT LIMMY RUNS FORWARD AND TAKES CHRIS DOWN WITH A SLING BLADE! Chris grabbing his neck as Limmy is back up to his feet, AS HE LEAPS UP INTO THE AIR AND CONNECTS WITH A KNEE DROP! Limmy has been relentless in this matchup as he grabs the head of Chris and brings him back up to his feet, but Chris with an elbow towards the face of Limmy! Limmy is sent back as Chris runs to the ropes looking to get back into this match! CHRIS GOING FOR A BIG LARIAT!
Jake Mercer: But Limmy ducks under as he grabs the arms of Chris and pulls him inward! JAWBREAKER! INVERTED STOMP FACEBREAKER CONNECTS SENDING CHRIS DOWN TO THE GROUND AS LIMMY HOOKS THE LEG GOING FOR A PIN ATTEMPT!
Referee: OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHHRR-
Stew-O: BUT CHRIS KICKS OUT JUST IN TIME! Surprisingly dominant performance by Limmy as he’s getting right back up to his feet and grabbing Chris by his head also and dragging himself up as Chris attempts to fight back with weak punches to his gut to send him backwards but Limmy is not budging one bit! But Chris finally shoves him away! CHRIS GOING FOR BOX OFFICE SMASH! SUPERKICK ATTEMPT TO RECOVER!
Flannery McCoy: BUT LIMMY CATCHES HIM WITH A SUPERKICK OF HIS OWN! ARMOR BREAKER TO THE JAW OF CHRIS SENDING HIM BACK DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Jake Mercer: But despite that he’s not going for the pin! Limmy looks unsatisfied right now as he grabs Chris by the head and brings him up before pulling him in! AND GOES FOR A NECKBREAKER! But Chris spins around and pushes Limmy away! Limmy stumbles back as Chris looks towards him and runs again! BUT LIMMY CATCHES HIM WITH ANOTHER ARMOR BREAKER! SUPERKICK CONNECTS!
Stew-O: But Limmy isn’t done as he pulls him in! AND FINALLY! THE CROWNING! SPIKE SWINGING COMPLETE SHOT CONNECTS AS LIMMY GOES FOR THE PIN!
Referee: OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Apple Seed” plays up as the crowd is absolutely in shock. Limmy sits up with the biggest shiteating smirk on his face that could ever be seen as he pats himself on the back before getting up to his feet. The Ref makes his way over and raises his hand in victory before he looks back down at the knocked out Chris Elite and shakes his head before climbing up to the top rope and forcing the Ref to hand over his PURE Championship as he raises it high in the air to the boos of the crowd)
Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner… LIMMY MONAGHAN!!!!!!!!!!
Flannery McCoy: I… am absolutely speechless. I don’t know what to say considering who Limmy made quick work of. A former World Champion and EAW Hall of Famer :lupe:. It just goes to show that despite a rough start in 2021 he’s not playing any games this time around, and I could say the same for Insurgency as well in that matter.
Jake Mercer: :krabs: I’m scared, Flannery hold me!
Flannery McCoy: NO!
(The sounds of rustling are heard before in the background Jake is seen on the ground in fetal position as Flannery is sitting back down)
Flannery McCoy: Anyways… but I don’t think Limmy is done here.
(Limmy takes a victory lap around the ring before stopping to look over at Chris who’s recovering in the ring. He’s clearly shaken as he doesn’t know what’s going on before Limmy slides back into the ring with furious intent on his face as he makes his way over to him)
Stew-O: LIMMY RUNS OVER AND STRIKES CHRIS IN THE FACE WITH A KNEE! Limmy mounting onto him as he’s just attacking him with a brutal assault of strikes as Elite is completely defenseless on that matter! The Ref immediately running over as he tries to split them up but I think someone else is already there on that matter!
(Before long Jake Smith quickly rolls into the ring as he grabs Limmy and pulls him off of Chris. He calms him down before looking down at him and looking back up at Limmy)
Jake Smith: Good job, but you already did your job. No need for that.
(Chris slowly begins to recover as Jake looks back down at him. His “sympathetic” face turns into a smirk as Chris gets up to his feet)
Flannery McCoy: ULTIMA! JAKE JUST TOOK CHRIS DOWN WITH THE IMPALER DDT!
Jake Mercer: And here the rest of them come! Like a pack of wolves Donovan Duke and Maxwell are already out there ready to strike!
Stew-O: ALL FOUR OF THEM ARE OUT THERE AS THEY COMPLETELY BOMBARD CHRIS ELITE WITH A BRUTAL ASSAULT! Jake rolling out of the ring as he seems to be making his way over to our announcers table, as he takes five chairs and brings them back into the ring! This definitely isn’t good as he rolls back in!
(Jake tells them to back up to a moment as he takes four of the chairs and passes them around to insurgency before Jake puts the last one under the head of Chris. All of them look around to one another with mischief on their face as they do so as they know exactly what to do)
Flannery McCoy: CON-CHAIR-TO!
Jake Mercer: ALL FOUR OF THEM ARE MERCILESSLY SLAMMING CHAIR SHOTS ONTO THE HEAD OF CHRIS ELITE AS THIS IS WHAT LIMMY MONAGHAN USED MULTIPLE TIMES TO TAKE OUT COMPETITION IN THE PAST! SEEMINGLY A TRADEMARK AT THIS POINT!
(Jake drops his chair as the others continue their assault as he gestures at the turnbuckle for one last move. He climbs up to the top rope while the other three men barely hold Chris Elite off of the ground as Jake spreads his arms out before looking to the camera)
Stew-O: MURDER! DIVING CURBSTOMP TO THE HEAD OF CHRIS ELITE COURTESY OF JAKE SMITH ASSISTED BY INSURGENCY! THAT’S A ROUND TABLE MOVE!
(Jake gets up as he dusts himself off. Looking down at Chris Elite looking satisfied with himself before looking up to the camera with a big smile on his face as the other three members of Insurgency join him. Once again attempting to send a message to Drake King the last shot is Jake giving a big bow before Insurgency leaves the rng and leaves the medical team to tend to Chris Elite as Dynasty transitioned to commercial break from there)
(A commercial for the Philadelphia Zoo, where MITSUBACHI is seen desperately taking notes to find his next gimmick)
(Dynasty returns from commercial break to the inside of the World 1 Theatre where we find a podium sitting at the center of the ring. Surrounding the ring are roughly two dozen reporters, photographers, videographers, and other media representatives, presumably in attendance for the announcement that’s expected to follow.)
Flannery McCoy: Ladies and gentlemen, in just a few moments, we’re expecting to receive an update regarding possibly one of the most lucrative contract negotiations in EAW history!
Stew-O: As you all know, today was the deadline imposed by the Beloved Brother, Dr. Angelo D’angelo for Elite Answers Wrestling to meet the contractual demands of the former World Heavyweight Champion.
Jake Mercer: The former World Heavyweight Champion and 2020 Male of Elitist we’ll NEVER see again in an EAW ring, from the looks of it. D’angelo made zero progress whatsoever while trying to get Vizzy what he wanted over the last few weeks. Did he really think making an ultimatum would be helpful to him NOW? If EAW were as desperate for Viz as D’angelo made it seem, we wouldn’t be dealing with this situation right now! Might as well call it. It’s not like we need him!
Flannery McCoy: Breaks my heart to say so, but you might be right, Jake. All evening, I haven’t heard a single thing pointing in favor of Viz. By the looks of things, EAW seems ready to let him go with just how little interest they’ve shown in giving D’angelo what Viz is asking for.
Stew-O: Well, regardless of the decision to be made tonight, we’re in for some earth shattering news that has the potential to alter the course of Dynasty for the rest of the season! Hence the invasion of shutterbugs surrounding the ring…
(The commentary team provides their statements while the camera pans ringside, giving us a glimpse of each of the various media representatives standing by. There’s a moment of silence, allowing for the murmurs and anticipation of the virtual audience in attendance to be heard while they wait for Dr. D’angelo to make his way to the ring.)
…
…
…….
……….
………………..
(“M3tamorphosis” by Playboi Carti ft. Kid Cudi begins to play throughout the World 1 Theatre, much to everyone’s surprise.)
Flannery McCoy: Oh…my…god?
Stew-O: …this can only mean one thing. Without an appearance from Dr. Angelo D’angelo, it is safe to assume he has no reason to be on EAW television any longer…
Flannery McCoy: …because EAW has allowed the Visual Prophet’s contract to expire.
(Impact slowly steps out onto the stage, dressed in a fashionable, custom two-piece suit while holding a leather briefcase in his other hand. He pauses atop the stage, lifting the briefcase just above his head as he looks around at the virtual audience while their hatred rains down on him. He lowers the briefcase and proceeds down the ramp and towards the ring, smiling smugly as the commentary team chimes in once more.)
Stew-O: But that doesn’t explain Impact’s business here this evening. I guess it’s fitting that he joins us here tonight to do a bit of gloating, seeing as he bore the brunt of most of D’angelo’s aggression on camera. Any guess as to what might be in that briefcase?
Flannery McCoy: None at all, Stew, but–hey. Wait a minute. You’re awfully quiet, Jake. No “IMPACT ZONE” proclamation for us tonight?
Jake Mercer: …
Stew-O: Jake?
Jake Mercer: ………………………….they really just…let him go? …just like that? :mjcry:
(Impact, now in the ring, positions himself behind the podium, swinging the briefcase up atop the surface of the podium before picking up the microphone laid out for him. The photographers’ cameras begin to flash at a rapid pace while Impact clears his throat off-mic, waiting for “M3tamorphosis” to die down. The music cuts off and he raises the microphone to his lips as the sly smile across his face grows.)
Impact: What a turnout, eh? :whew: I’m glad you all were able to make it on such short notice, and I appreciate all of your dedication in making yourself available for an event like this one. Of course, I completely understand why. Who would dare want to miss an announcement like the one I’m about to deliver? Possibly one of the biggest announcements made in recent history, might even be a shoe-in for 2021’s “Shocking Moment of the Year.” It’s an announcement that I’m sure will change the way this generation of Elitists choose to approach their contract negotiations in the future, no way will any of you ever again try to bully your way into getting what you want and get away with it under my watch. And it’s an announcement I’m incredibly honored that I get to deliver myself.
(Impact lowers his microphone for a moment, giving the virtual audience an opportunity to respond appropriately.)
Stew-O: Did you guys pick up on that?
Flannery McCoy: So, Impact freakin’ invited the press here himself?! Is he THAT excited to announce Viz’s EAW departure?
Jake Mercer: Don’t you remember how enthusiastic he was about ridding EAW of Sarah Price earlier this season?! Of course he’d want to document a moment like this! Impact PRIDES himself on these sorts of things! And why the hell shouldn’t he? This is the industry he BUILT, and not everyone was made to survive in a climate as harsh as THE IMPACT ZONE!
Stew-O: I’m glad you’re feeling better. :mjgrin:
Impact: I know most of you are hoping for some good news tonight. Many more of you are surprised to see my face up here, I’m sure. But this face– (With his free hand, he performs a dramatic, swooping motion in front of his face) is a face you will all soon learn to associate not only with excellence and provenance, but with purification, with extraction. If you didn’t already. A lot of you like to conveniently forget who it is you’re dealing with whenever one of you is unlucky enough to cross my path. You should all know good and well what I’m capable of, what I do to motherfuckers who fall out of line who underestimate my proficiency, in and outside of the ring. I can’t entirely blame most of them, however, considering just how many times those who pull the strings have shrouded the vision of the masses, highlighting the money-making stories of triumph amidst adversity and trying to sell them someone better than Imp that night when in actuality, there never fucking was. It’s well-documented throughout EAW history just how much alphas like myself have been chucked aside, forcibly removed from the limelight so this industry can get away with pumping up and hyping up betas to feed the dribbling mouths of the impressionable conglomerate of fans. They been gaming the system for nearly a decade in order to weed out guys like me through whatever means possible, just so small fries like Noah, like Rex, like TLA, like Drake, like Viz can have a “fair chance.” An “opportunity” to relish in their positioning at center stage despite having done nothing to deserve it besides churn out half-baked, unremarkable work week after week. All for the sake of “variety.” “Equal opportunity employer,” according to the terms and conditions of your contract, but they forget to mention the multitude of ways that “equal opportunities” won’t come your way if you’re TOO fucking good at what you do, otherwise, folks like me would only illegitimize all that it is that makes you manufactured, overhyped motherfuckers appeal to dumbasses out there who are far too gullible to see the truth for yourself. If you know, you know.
(Impact takes a second to gather his thoughts, cracking his neck on either side before continuing to speak.)
Impact: Ever since I silenced the hype of one of the more recent overhyped wonders of Season 14, I’ve realized quite a few things about this industry regarding the overexaggerated self-importance these sort of Elitists apply to themselves, only for them to crumble under the pressure they were never built to withstand. And that especially rings true for the Visual Prophet, the man who, frankly, even I’m amazed managed to maintain a contract with this industry as long as he has. Obviously, that breaking point came around sooner than he imagined, but I saw it coming, it was only a matter of time. It’s around this point in the average Elitist’s career that he realizes just how futile his efforts really are, as he begins to understand that he’ll never be able to reach the level that legendary specimens like myself have been able to achieve, no matter what sort of recycled, choreographed underdog routines they’re performing. I’ve seen it year after year, generation after generation, and the story is always the same. Matter fact, I’ve come to pride myself on exposing the truth behind this revelation, and it’s why I so boldly correct each and every person in that locker room that insists on cranking out this narrative that Impact is supposedly out of touch, when the reality is, I know more about this industry than you could even fathom. I do half of your jobs infinitely better than you ever could, because I am just THAT damn good. None of you can touch me, you’ll never captivate audiences the way I do, you’ll never have these execs eating out the palm of your hand like they’ve been doing mine for over a fucking decade. And that goes for whoever, not just the average low-card Elitist, I’m talking commentary. Referees. GMs. Managers. Even that of the Beloved Brother, Dr. Angelo D’angelo. That’s right, I’m coming for all y’all’s jobs. You could all learn a thing or two from me ‘bout how to properly carry yourself, but face it: all the lessons in the world won’t even bring you a mere inch closer to where I’m at. Allow me to show you why…
(Impact sets his microphone down carefully as the broadcast cuts to an angle of him carefully unlatching the lid of his briefcase. He pops it open with both thumbs, and he pulls out a thick manilla envelope. The audience grows restless, excited to see what Impact holds in his hands. He sets the envelope down and shuts the briefcase, standing it up beside his feet and giving himself ample room on his podium. Carefully, he unwraps the small string that seals the mysterious envelope, peeking up to look around at the virtual audience who continue to murmur anxiously.)
Flannery McCoy: What in the world…? Impact, now, begins to–and might I add, slowly–open this…random envelope, and I haven’t the slightest idea what could be inside–
Jake Mercer: DISCHARGE PAPERS, FLANNERY! Isn’t it obvious?! Viz is getting his ass the fuck out of EAW and Impact is going to make ABSOLUTELY sure that the whole world sees it! If Imp says they won’t last, they won’t. Periodt. Take his word for it–he’s been right every other time!
(Once the envelope is open, he slowly pulls out a thick stack of papers stapled together. He calls for the camera sharing the ring with him to “get a look at this shit” as he holds up the cover page, the camera zooming in at the very top: //i.imgur.com/AegfiUl.jpg
Stew-O: Holy sh–what the fresh hell is THAT?!
Flannery McCoy: Goddammit, Stew, you can READ can’t you?! Impact holds in his hands…a brand spanking new contract between the Visual Prophet and Elite Answer Wrestling! Dated just TODAY, right on the deadline! Does that mean–?
Jake Mercer: YES! IT DOES! A decision has been MADE on behalf of the Beloved Brother’s client! Viz is here to stay! :blessed:
Stew-O: Yes, but, if EAW finally gave into D’angelo’s demands–why the hell is Impact the one to reveal the contract, and not Dr. Angelo himself?
(Impact carefully lowers the contract and picks the microphone back up to address the now raucous virtual audience, clearly overjoyed to find out that EAW has decided to come to an agreement with Angelo and give Viz his contract extension.)
Impact: Indeed. This…is exactly what you think it is: a statement of power. My power, specifically. Here, in my possession, I’m holding an unsigned but mostly finalized contract between the Visual Prophet, and EAW. A contract that they weren’t even considering offering to this man–until I stepped into the room and asked for a couple favors. You’re welcome.
Flannery McCoy: …wait a minute…HE did this?!
Stew-O: …the Visual Prophet has Impact, NOT Dr. D’angelo, to thank for his new contract. I never thought I’d see the day. This is…mindblowing to say the least.
Jake Mercer: AND Y’ALL TRIED TO TELL IMP HE HAD NO PULL?! NO AUTHORITY?!
Flannery McCoy: Jake, it is VERY difficult trying to keep up with whose side you’re on.
(As the commentary team interjects, Impact quickly slips the contract back inside of the manilla envelope. The cheers from the audience had quickly turned into a chorus of boos after Impact’s clarifying statement.)
Impact: My power. My influence. My impact. I’m the one who did this, I’m the one pulling the strings now, and y’all are just gonna have to deal with it. We can flip through it together if you want first, Viz, y’know, read through each and every statement and clause and go over all the terms and conditions as soon as you please–but for the sake of brevity, I’ll fill you in on what this here contract contains real quick: it’s EVERYTHING you EVER wanted Viz. Yes, I got you EXACTLY what you’ve been asking for all these weeks that the board previously refused you. No more, no less. And all it took me was a ten minute phone call. The salary, the holiday bonuses, the annual raises, the travel arrangements, dietary requirements–everything, Viz, it’s all right here, on paper, just waiting for you to make the most out of. Only thing that’s missing is a signature–your signature.
(Impact repositions himself at the front of his podium, still gripping onto his microphone tightly as he stares into the hard camera.)
Impact: Obviously…that last bit has been a bit hard to come by considering your refusal to appear on Dynasty so far this year. But I would like to personally invite you–and Dr. Angelo, if he’s up for it–to a contract signing to finalize this bad boy and get you back in the ring and on television as soon as possible. I’m sure we could have easily pulled together a secure e-sign for ya, sent a PDF your way for that electronic signature…but I would much rather have you here in front of me to close the deal in person. I want to see the look in your eyes when you have no other choice BUT to accept what it is I’m gifting to you, since your associate couldn’t bring you jack shit. I want to take delight in the mind-boggling frustration you’ll be processing when you realize that I was able to get this deal in less than a full day when your representative trotted around for damn near an entire month and got you nowhere, don’t you ever tell me I’m not a people person, a good negotiator. I want you to be face to face with the man who you swear never does anything right by you or by the industry and soak it aaallll in when you sign your name across that dotted line so that you, as well as all of these bottom feeding fans, have ME to thank for bringing you back onto MY stage. You barely have to do anything but show up with a pen. All YOU need to do is sign the dotted line, and we can put an end to this needless, tedious little protest.
(Impact smiles smugly into the hard camera as the virtual audience continues their jeers.)
Impact: Time’s ticking, Viz. And I think you’ve wasted enough of it already. Don’t you?
(Impact lets his microphone-holding hand fall to his side as “M3tamorphosis” begins to play throughout the World 1 Theatre once again. He laughs into the camera, both arms now extended outward, inviting the camera to zoom in closely on his triumphant expression, a great sense of self-satisfaction and pride oozing from his pores.)
Jake Mercer: Mark this day down as one of the most momentous in history, ladies in gentlemen. I think this is a first in Elite Answers Wrestling history. With the exception of Gawd contracts and the authority of the Adams Family, when was the last time an Elitist negotiated a contract for another member of the locker room?!
Stew-O: You say tonight was momentous, Jake, but I can only assume Viz won’t share your sentiment. It’s no secret he and Impact have a long history, stemming back to the days after Viz’s reign as New Breed Champion, and the mutual disdain they share for one another has been explosive in some instances! The last thing Viz wants to hear is that he has IMPACT of all people to thank for his fulfilling the demands of his contract extension.
Jake Mercer: He has nothing to be upset about! It is what it is, and Viz should let the past live in the past and just accept that Impact delivered where D’angelo couldn’t! The man he hired to give him what he wanted FAILED, and Impact stepped in to do him a favor! He could at LEAST say thank you! Shame he won’t be able to get his money back from D’angelo, though.
Flannery McCoy: It won’t be that easy, Jake. We don’t even know if the Visual Prophet will accept the contract to begin with! Will he even bother to show up next week?!
Stew-O: Only one way to find out! We’ll be right back after this commercial break, ladies and gentlemen! Stay tuned for more Friday Night Dynasty!
(As his music continues to play and commentary caps off the segment, Impact moves around to each side of the ring, posing with the briefcase and manilla envelope for the photographers and reporters as they snap photos and hurriedly scribble down notes. Just as Impact hoists himself on a turnbuckle corner, to soak in more of the negative reaction from the virtual audience, Dynasty fades to commercial break.)

(“Triumph” by Tenth Dimension hits, as Drake King steps out onto the stage with his arms wide. He then drops then down to his side and begins making his way down the ramp and towards the ring.)
Stephie Love: The following contest is set for ONE FALL!! Introducing first.. From The Dead Sea, Israel.. Weighing in at 225lbs.. He is DRAKE THE REDEEMER!!! DRAKE KING!!!!
Stew-O: And here comes Drake King who happened to appear on all three shows last week. He definitely wants to get back at Maxwell for what happened on Voltage.
(“Slide” by Calvin Harris featuring Frank Ocean and Migos hits, as the crowd boos heavily. Maxwell steps out onto the stage and stares directly at Drake King. Drake does the same in return as neither man releases their stare on one another. Maxwell makes his way down to the ring.)
Stephie Love: And his opponent.. From Las Vegas, Nevada!! Weighing in at 231lbs.. THE TOP DOLLAR!! MAXWELL!!
Flannery McCoy: And Here’s Maxwell from Insurgency!! Insurgency and Drake King have gone back and forth the past few weeks, where it all started with Drake costing Jake a match in the King of Elite tournament. That’s what really sparked this rivalry, and it’s only grown from there!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Stew-O: There’s the bell and this matchup between Drake King and Maxwell is underway! On Voltage last week, Insurgency took out Drake King as well as an unconscious Sierra Bradford. Maxwell played a major role in that attack as he helped Jake keep Drake down after Jake connected with a nasty superkick to the jaw.
Flannery McCoy: You can see it in Drake’s eyes. He’a ready to get this one going as he wants to get some revenge. The two lock up in the center of the ring, and immediately, it’s Drake King who drives his knee into the abdomen of Maxwell!! Drake with another shot as Maxwell loses his grip, and now King with an irish whip that sends Maxwell over to the ropes! Maxwell hits the ropes and bounces back.. DROPKICK BY DRAKE!!
Stew-O: Drake hits that dropkick hard as it sends Maxwell right down onto the canvas. Maxwell quickly pops back up to his feet however, but is kicked right at the side of the leg! Another kick! And another! Maxwell hunches over in pain from those kicks to the side of his leg.. And Drake goes for a roundhouse kick!! No!! Maxwell ducks underneath the leg as Drake King spins all the way around. His back is facing Maxwell.. SIDE RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP BY MAXWELL THAT BASHES THE BACK OF DRAKE’S HEAD AGAINST THE CANVAS OF THE RING!!
Flannery McCoy: Drake clutches at his head, as Maxwell rises back up to his feet. Stomp to the midsection by Maxwell! The Top Dollar now reaches down to grab king. He brings him up to his feet and connects with a forearm smash before irish whipping King towards the ropes! Drake hits the ropes and bounces back.. SCOOP POWERSLAM BY MAXWELL CONNECTS AS HE SLAMS DRAKE KING RIGHT INTO THE CANVAS OF THE RING!! Maxwell attempts to turn Drake over and lock in the STF!! He’s trying to lock in the STF!! But wait!! Drake King realizes this and quickly breaks away from Maxwell and gets to the edge of the ring before rolling underneath the bottom rope to ringside. Maxwell quickly makes his way over to the side ropes and exits out of the ring to ringside, but it looks like Drake is already running away from Maxwell and running around the corner of the ring! Maxwell sees this as he chases after King! Drake cuts the corner, then slides right back into the ring.
Jake Mercer: I guess the Redeemer is too scared Maxwell is going to beat him up again, and so now he’s running away..
Flannery McCoy: I don’t think that’s what’s going on here Jake, because Maxwell just slid back into the ring.. AND DRAKE KING CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK RIGHT AT THE JAW THAT DROPS MAXWELL DOWN TO HIS KNEES!! Drake sees the position that Maxwell is in and quickly turns around to run over to the ropes! Drake hits the ropes and bounces back.. RUNNING KNEE TO THE FACE BY DRAKE KING!! IT CONNECTS!!
Stew-O: That last shot really rocked Maxwell as he instantly falls down and onto his side. Drake walks his way over Maxwell and begins to stomp away at his body!! Stomp onto the shoulder!! Another stomp down onto the side abdomen of Maxwell!! Drake backs away, and delivers a powerful kick to the back of Maxwell that turns The Top Dollar onto his stomach in the center of the ring! Drake gets on top of him and.. HE LOCKS IN THE CROSSFACE!! Crossface is locked in the center of the ring!! Maxwell is freaking out right now as Drake is trying to rip his head from off of his body!! Maxwell reaches out and tries to grab for the ring ropes, but it’s no use as both him and Drake are directly in the center of the ring!! Maxwell is going to need to fight in order to stay alive in this match!
Flannery McCoy: And that’s what he’s doing as he begins to slowly crawl his way towards the ropes! He’s inching himself over there with Drake on his back!! Maxwell’s face has turned beat red, as he continues to fight his way to the ropes.. He’s almost there.. AND MAXWELL GRABS THE BOTTOM ROPE!! Drake quickly releases his hold on Maxwell, then grabs him. What is Drake thinking now? He lifts Maxwell up into the air in a powerbomb position.. AND TOSSES MAXWELL INTO THE CORNER WITH A BUCKLE BOMB!!! Maxwell hits the corner turnbuckles hard, then slowly steps back towards Drake due to bouncing off of those turnbuckles!! JUMPING KNEE TO THE FACE BY DRAKE KING!! IT CONNECTS AND SENDS MAXWELL BACK INTO THE CORNER!! Maxwell then drops down as he lands in a seated position in the corner!!
Jake Mercer: Drake is really taking it to Maxwell!! He reaches down and grabs Maxwell from out of the corner and walks him over to the center of the ring! He kicks Maxwell right in the midsection then pulls the Insurgency member’s head right in between his legs.. ASCENSION!!! THATS THE PEDIGREE BY DRAKE KING!!!
Stew-O: NO!!
Jake Mercer: Yes it is.. I know the Ascension is a pedigree..
Stew-O: NO!! I meant NO as in Maxwell just reversed it with a back body drop!! Look!! Drake King hits the mat hard and clutches at his lower back in pain. However, he manages to get up to his feet fairly quickly as he turns around and faces Maxwell. Forearm smash to the face by Maxwell as Drake King staggers backwards! Maxwell grabs Drake by the wrist and whips Drake hard into the corner of the ring as Drake hits the turnbuckles hard!! Maxwell charges in at King! RUNNING BACK ELBOW TO THE FACE OF DRAKE KING BY MAXWELL CONNECTS!!!
Jake Mercer: Drake got a really good taste of Maxwell’s elbow just now, and as a result, he looks completely out of it as he rests back against the corner! Maxwell looks at Drake King and raises his hand in the air.. KNIFE EDGE CHOP!! It connects as Maxwell’s hand smacks against the chest of Drake King!! Maxwell again raises his hand and connects with another!! And Another!! Maxwell now grabs onto Drake King’s wrist.. MONEY MAKER!!! RIPCORD ELBOW SMASH CONNECTS AS MAXWELL DROPS DRAKE KING DOWN TO THE MAT!!
Flannery McCoy: Maxwell now begins to make his way over to the corner that Drake was just leaning against. The Top Dollar is climbing up to the top rope. He gets set and looks down at Drake King!! SWANTON BOMB!!! NO!!! DRAKE ROLLED OUT OF THE WAY, AS MAXWELL CRASHES BACK FIRST INTO THE CANVAS!! Maxwell slowly gets back to his feet as he clutches at his lower back. He turns to face Drake King, but Drake quickly grabs him.. REVERSE STO!!! IT CONNECTS!!! And Drake transitions into.. THE SCRIPTURE!! THE KOJI CLUTCH IS LOCKED IN!! THE KOJI CLUTCH IS LOCKED IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!!!
Stew-O: Drake is squeezing Maxwell with all of his might!! Maxwell is in tremendous pain right now, and.. Wait.. What’s this!?! What is he saying to Maxwell??
Drake King (Off-Mic): Come on Maxwell!! You can get out!! Try a little harder! Where’s that same energy you had when you beat me while I was down last week? You can’t do it by yourself? Come on Maxwell!!
Jake Mercer: Ahh.. Isn’t it nice how Drake is so motivating to his opponents.
Flannery McCoy: I don’t think he’s trying to motivate him Jake.. I think he’s trying to humiliate Maxwell right here!!
Drake King (Off-Mic): You’re not going to tap are you? Just because you’re a member of Insurgency doesn’t mean you have to be this weak. Come on Maxwell!!
Stew-O: Maxwell is fighting with everything he’s got right now and.. Wait a second!! Maxwell has loosened Drake’s grip!! Maxwell slowly works up to his feet with Drake King still locking in the Scripture!! But Maxwell manages to adjust, as he gets Drake’s other leg over his shoulder.. This is a powerbomb position!! Maxwell has Drake in a powerbomb position.. AND HE SLAMS DRAKE DOWN WITH A POWER BOMB!!! Drake hits the canvas hard!!
Flannery McCoy: Maxwell is getting hyped up as he stares down at Drake King! He’s stalking his prey and ready to go on the attack!! Drake slowly gets back up to his feet.. MISSING FRAGMENT!! THE CUTTER BY MAXWELL!!
Stew-O: NO!! DRAKE SHOVES MAXWELL AS MAXWELL GETS SHOVED FACE FIRST ONTO THE MAT… CURB STOMP!! THE JUDGEMENT DAY CONNECTS BY DRAKE KING!! Drake didn’t give Maxwell any time to recover, and now he’s hooking the legs!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Triumph” by Tenth Dimension hits as Drake King rises up to his feet. The referee then raises his hand.)
Stephie Love: Here is your winner.. DRAKE KING!!
Stew-O: Well, Drake has managed to get some revenge against one of the members of Insurgency tonight. You have to think that he’s going to go after every single one of them after what happened last week on Voltage with Sierra Bradford.
Flannery McCoy: That’s for sure, but you can’t say he didn’t start this whole thing by getting involved with Jake’s match against MITSUBACHI weeks ago.
Jake Mercer: Drake is just weeding out the weak in this King of Elite. That’s all.
Flannery McCoy: Whatever it is, I’m sure this back and forth between Drake and Insurgency isn’t even close to being over!
(Drake King is seen celebrating his victory before the screen fades to black.)
(A commercial for Smoothie King featuring SEBAS where he makes a strawberry guava smoothie :wow:)
(The camera fades into the backstage area of the World 1 Theatre as a figure is seen pacing back and forth the hallways as the camera moves in to get a closer look. Xander Payne is seen with a grey “Paynekiller” branded hoodie on over his ring-attire as he seems to be getting prepared for his match against World Heavyweight Champion, Lethal Consequences tonight. He has fierce determination in his eyes as he spots the camera and turns towards it. He begins to make his way down the halls of the backstage area as he speaks as he does so)
Xander Payne: I’m sure everyone saw what I did last week in a result that should be plain obvious. I solidified by stance as the best elitist not just on Dynasty, but the entirety of Elite Answers Wrestling. But what can I say? It’s always been an ill-fated understatement to count me out before it even begins, because just as I always do, Xander Payne comes back with a fire beyond any other. Especially with the story I have headed into King of Elite. For some reason, some magical reason I suppose, I’ve never been able to capture a World Championship before. And the King of Elite tournament cashes in my ticket to do just that, and I hope you mongrels realize because of how far I’ve gotten that this result should be clear.
It doesn’t matter who I’m facing. If if is one of those dreaded Ava sisters or that whore who spit shines Ryan Adams’ senile shrub everynight, or even what’s his name of another Ava sister that nobody cares about, it doesn’t matter. I’ve put myself into this position for a reason and that’s to grace the EAW Universe with what a true King is. And the funny part is, despite all of that, hell, even after naming myself a finalist at King of Elite, everything I’ve done, for some reason people dare say that the only reason I’ve gotten places around here is because I’m lucky. SHUT UP! I’ve been put in this specific spotlight for a reason and that’s because I’ve earned it and I’ve jumped through all the hurdles to get there. And here I am, the finals, and it’s too late to look back now I say. I will kick every single person’s ass who stands in my way because I’m Xander Payne, AND I CAN! If it’s one unexpected thing after another then gladly so be it, consider this just another example of such when I come out with a shiny new possession to my name and that’s the King of Elite crown that I wear on top of my head and proclaim myself under a moniker only truly fit for a king, and that’s “Your majesty, King Xander.”
And then I move on from there to a prosperous field of light. I take the opportunity and use that King of Elite win to cash my check in for a EAW World Heavyweight Championship shot, whenever the hell I want. And when that happens? Boom, say it with me here. AND NEW! WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLDDDDDDD!!! XANDER PAYNE! Nobody will tell me otherwise, nobody will tell me otherwise because they aren’t in the position I’m in are they? They didn’t main event two consecutive free-per-views in a row like I have, exactly, that’s what I thought. I think we should consider my main event match tonight a little teaser of what’s going to happen.
Ah. Lethal Consequences. You didn’t think I forgot about you, did you? I was always going to come around to you one way or another because there’s one thing you have that I want, and that’s the EAW World Heavyweight Championship. I hope you have fun with Dray, genuinely, it pisses me off to think that someone like Dray could possibly take the World Heavyweight Championship away from you just as he did to my PURE Championship, but it will be what it will be. I have faith, because I want you to remember while you are Champion the absolute beating that I will give you tonight. And while you bear those scars I will win the King of Elite, while you stay there in excruciating pain we will meet again, and only then will you be reminded exactly who the hell I am. Don’t take this as some sort of petty match that can be pushed away a matter of minutes after it’s done, because I want you to remember me. Keep a tight hold on your World Heavyweight Championship for as long as you can, go through the Dray Fontana’s, the MITSUBACHI’s, and the Jake Smith’s of this horrid division and try to build yourself up as best as you can. But keep it in mind that your one fear will come to fruition. And that is the fact that Xander Payne is coming for you, and I will be leaving Tampa, Florida as your TRUE King of Elite!
(Xander pushed away the camera as he walks away from the scene and headed towards guerilla position, as that’s the last shot seen before the camera fades back into the World 1 Theatre where Stephie Love is shown in the ring.)
Stephie Love: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, THIS IS THE MOMENT YOU’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR: OUR MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING!
(The virtual audience cheers excitedly.)
Stephie Love: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A SINGLES MATCH AND IT IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
(“It Follows” by Cane Hill begins to play as the entrance video for Xander Payne is played on the titantron. Xander Payne walks onto the stage with his arms in the air, basking in the intensity of this virtual crowd’s disdain.)
Stephie Love: INTRODUCING FIRST, WRESTLING OUT OF TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANNAAAADDDAAAAAAAAAA!!!! WEIGHING IN AT 250 POOOOUUNNNDDDSSSSSS, XANNNNDDEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR ‘PAYNEKILLLERRRRRRRRRRRRRR’ PAYNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
(Virtual crowd boos Xander Payne as he arrogantly makes his way down the ramp.)
Flannery McCoy: One of the front runners in EAW’s King of Elite tournament, this man has all the tools necessary to once more become a champion in 2021, and a victory tonight will put him on that path! Amassing a string of impressive victories and performances, Xander Payne now looks to collect his most crucial win of 2021 thus far, and put his name in the conversation for future title opportunities, with, or without King of Elite.
Jake Mercer: I agree, Xander Payne-
(Xander grabs the headset from Jake.)
Xander Payne: Xander Payne is the best damn talent today and none of these pigs can amount to both my physical and mental beauty. I’m coming for that title and for best body of the year 2021.
Jake Mercer: What he said!
(Xander rolls into the ring and eyes the stage as the lights flicker and the sound changes as “Tougher Colder Killer” by El-P begins to reverberate throughout the arena. Lethal Consequences walks onto the stage, World Heavyweight Title strapped around his shoulder, immediately showing Xander the middle finger as he walks down the ramp, a gesture Xander returns.)
Flannery McCoy: The run this man’s been on needs no further look than just a few weeks back when he defeated The Visual Prophet and four others to win the World Heavyweight Championship at Road To Redemption. Defeating Andre Walker, The New Breed Champion, two weeks ago in an impressive victory. He’ll be facing Dray Fontana at King of Elite for his title, but for now, he’s got to get past an incredibly game Xander Payne. LC’s wasting no time, throwing his jacket to the outside and shouting that he’s ready to go! Both of these men are eager to get out of the blocks! Let’s get this match started!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Flannery McCoy: And the main event is underway! Lethal Consequences charges out of his corner, engaging in a collar and elbow tie-up with Xander. Xander tries to fight him off, but LC is able to power Xander back into the turnbuckles, now shoving his forearm into the throat of Xander. The referee gives LC a five count, he uses every painful second- then stuns Xander with a filthy knife edge chop to the chest! The first chop of the night and it echoed throughout the performance center! Xander trying to recover, but LC repositions him in the corner again, ANOTHER KNIFE EDGE CHOP! Just as stinging as the first one and that sent Xander stumbling across the ring!
Stew-O: Now Lethal Consequences follows Payne, grabbing him by the arm and irish-whipping him- Xander turns it around and irish whips LC into the turnbuckles, running across the ring with an attempted lariat in the corner now! LC able to side step Xander, another blistering chop from LC! That one took the wind from Xander’s sail! Now LC with a stiff european uppercut to the jaw, rattling the teeth of Payne. LC off the ropes- XANDER COUNTERS! SCOOPS UP LETHAL CONSEQUENCES AND DRIVES HIM DOWN WITH A ROLLING DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! What a counter from Xander Payne! Beautiful athleticism!
Jake Mercer: He’s looking to keep up this offense, eyeing a running senton! Xander teases the senton- LC rolls out of the way, but Xander had it telegraphed! Able to stop the senton at the last second, Xander with a boot off the skull of LC, NOW HE DELIVERS A RUNNING JUMPING SENTON! Xander Payne taking control of this match, now holding his arms out and yelling towards our commentary table, he’s relishing in punishing the World Heavyweight Champion!
Stew-O: Xander now, boots to the midsection of the World Heavyweight Champion, shouting at LC on the ground, Xander Payne never fails to put his arrogance and disdain for his opponent on full display! Dragging LC back to his feet, looking for a stunner- but LC shoves him away, then takes Xander’s head off with a clothesline! What a turn around for the World Heavyweight champion! Xander wisely rolls out of the ring, avoiding any further onslaught from the champion, who follows him out there. LC, the lion stalking his prey, awaiting Xander Payne, who’s just barely staggering to his feet. LETHAL CONSEQUENCES FLIES OFF THE STAIRS WITH A FLYING FOREARM SMASH TO THE JAW OF XANDER! LC with an absolute crushing forearm to the face of Xander! That was dope!
Flannery McCoy: You’ve been spending too much time with Jake, using words like “dope”, but anywho, LC now runs Xander head first into the barricade! NOW FOLLOWING IT UP WITH A LARIAT! LC IS ON FIRE RIGHT NOW! Xander, on the other hand, is motionless on the floor! LC looks to get him back into the ring, but Xander with a nasty quick poke to the eye, the referee didn’t see it! LC clenching his eyes, Xander turns him around and launches him back first into the apron!
Jake Mercer: Xander now bringing LC up to the apron, what in the blue hell does he have in mind?!? HE’S GOT LETHAL CONSEQUENCES IN SUPLEX POSITION, WAIT, BUT HE’S NOT LOOKING FOR A VERTICAL SUPLEX, OH NO!!! XANDER PAYNE WITH AN X-PLEX RELEASE SUPLEX THAT DROPS LC ON THE APRON WITH A THUD! OH MY GOD, THAT WAS NASTY! LC FALLS ONTO THE FLOOR GROANING IN PAIN AS XANDER SITS ON THE APRON LAUGHING AT HIM! Xander with an absolutely devilish smile on his face, getting off the apron and driving a boot into the stomach of LC! LC uses the barricade to get to his feet, Xander tries to kick the feet out from under him, but LC with a big punch to the eyebrow of Xander, causing Xanders stitches to begin to separate!
Flannery McCoy:Those stitches above the left eye of Xander Payne, right along the eyebrow, they’re beginning to bleed, and LC sees a weakness! LC CHARGES ACROSS THE RINGSIDE AREA WITH A DROPKICK THAT SENDS XANDER INTO THE BARRICADE! THAT SHOTGUN LIKE DROPKICK SENT XANDER PAYNE REELING! Now LC, wasting zero time, eyes Xander’s stitches, he’s about to put him through hell! LC DRIVES A KNUCKLE INTO THE WOUND OF XANDER AND HE TEARS OUT HIS STITCHES! OH GOD, I CAN’T WATCH THIS!
Stew-O: THIS IS BRUTAL, LC WITH HIS KNUCKLES INSIDE XANDER PAYNE’S CUT, HE’S TORN OUT THE STITCHES AND XANDER IS BLEEDING ALL OVER RINGSIDE! HE’S CRYING OUT FOR HELP AS LC NOW RAINS DOWN PUNCHES TO THE WOUND, AND SKULL OF XANDER! The referee rushes out to aid Xander and LC rolls back in the ring basking in the glory of the hate of this performance center. LC moves in front of the referee and drags Xander up to his feet- XANDER COUNTERS AND STUNS LC WITH A STUNNER! XANDER PAYNE WITH A STUNNER TO LETHAL CONSEQUENCES ON THE FLOOR, LC SMACKED THE BACK OF HIS HEAD WHEN HE LANDED! WHAT WHEREWITHAL FROM XANDER, WHO ROLLS LC BACK IN THE RING, STILL OOZING BLOOD!
Flannery McCoy: XANDER’S LOOKING FOR A URANAGE SLAM BACKBREAKER! HE’S GOT LC SET UP, BUT HE’S FIGHTING OUT, ELBOWS TO THE HEAD OF PAYNE! XANDER MANAGES TO COUNTER WITH A FOREARM OF HIS OWN TO THE TEMPLE OF LC! NOW AN AXE KICK THAT SLICES THROUGH THE BACK OF LC’S NECK, XANDER FOLLOWS UP WITH A DISCUS CLOTHESLINE!!!! TURNING LETHAL CONSEQUENCES INSIDE OUT, NOW XANDER PAYNE GOING FOR THE COVER ON LC! COULD HE FINISH THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION RIGHT HERE AND NOW?!?!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
THRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Jake Mercer: KICKOUT! LETHAL CONSEQUENCES MANAGED TO SHOOT HIS SHOULDER OFF THE CANVAS RIGHT IN THE KNICK OF TIME, XANDER PAYNE ALMOST HAD THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION DOWN FOR THE COUNT! WHAT A TURN OF EVENTS! XANDER’S IN DISBELIEF, HE THOUGHT HE HAD THIS MATCH WRAPPED UP! LC now manages to roll to the ropes, trying to lift himself with any shred of power he’s got left. Xander Payne is on his trail! Xander quickly charges in with a forearm to the back of LC’s head, now once more positioning him for the uranage backbreaker! HE’S GOT HIM SETUP! THIS TIME HE NAILS IT! LC DROPPED SPINEFIRST ON THE KNEE OF XANDER, WHO LIFTS HIM BACK TO HIS FEET, LIFTING LC UP FOR A SPIN-OUT POWERBOMB!
Stew-O: LC ESCAPES OUT THE BACK DOOR, SHOVING XANDER AGAINST THE ROPES, LC WITH A ROLLING WHEEL KICK THAT SMACKS XANDER PAYNE IN THE SIDE OF HIS SKULL! XANDER PAYNE FALLS ONTO THE SECOND ROPE, LC HAS HIS MIND SET ON A 619! HE LAUNCHES HIMSELF INTO IT- BUT XANDER PAYNE HELD THE TOP ROPE UP AND LC WENT TUMBLING TO THE FLOOR! WHAT A COUNTER FROM XANDER! LC jumps back up to the apron, Xander Payne tries to land a big lariat, but LC avoids it, and hits a rope assisted enziguri on the side of Xander’s head! He just rocked Xander Payne! Xander goes stumbling across the ring as LC enters the ropes again, now it’s LC with a huge lariat that surely just claimed the life of Xander’s teeth! Surely they’re scattered across the ringside area because wow, what a clothesline!
Flannery McCoy: LC with repeated stomps to the body of Xander, he’s trying to cover up, but LC is still stomping the life from Xander! Good lord! Xander’s facial wound has finally calmed, but he’s in no less danger as LC perches himself on the second rope! LC is gonna fly! A FLYING CROSSBODY FROM THE CHAMPION, HE FLATTENS XANDER PAYNE! WHO APPEARS TO HAVE TAKEN ONE OF HIS FINAL BREATHS! XANDER’S LIFEFORCE IN THIS MATCH IS FADING, LC IS CHIPPING AWAY AT HIS DETERMINATION TO STAY ALIVE HERE! Xander Payne inching to his feet, but LC potentially eyeing a “Lowdown” spinebuster! Xander Payne is in deep trouble right now, he’s stuck in the mud and LC is picking him apart!
Jake Mercer: HERE HE GOES, LC GRABS XANDER AND GOES FOR THE SPINEBUSTER! XANDER IS ABLE ROLL OVER TOP OF LETHAL CONSEQUENCES AND ROLL HIM THROUGH FOR A PINFALL ATTEMPT- BUT LC GETS OFF THE CANVAS BEFORE THE REFEREE WAS EVEN DOWN FOR THE COUNT! HE LOOKS FOR A FOREARM SMASH TO XANDER, WHO EVADES IT, AND PLANTS LETHAL CONSEQUENCES WITH A SNAP DDT! DRIVING LC DOWN RIGHT ON TOP OF HIS SKULL WITH THAT ONE IS XANDER, LC IS OUT! XANDER FINALLY MANAGES TO MOUNT HIS OFFENSE AND NOW IS TRYING TO TAKE BACK CONTROL OVER THE REIGNS OF THIS MATCH!
Stew-O: XANDER IS LOOKING FOR FULL CONTROL, HE’S GOT THE ARMS OF LC, NOW LAUNCHING HIM WITH A RELEASE SLEEPER SUPLEX!!! LC TUMBLES INTO THE CANVAS AND LAYS IN A HEAP OF HIS OWN PAIN, GOOD LORD ALMIGHTY, XANDER’S GOING TO MAKE HIM PAY FOR THE ASSAULT ON HIS STITCHES!
Flannery McCoy: Xander lifts LC up to his feet once more, slapping him in the face, now grabbing him by the jaw and spitting in the face of LC (pause)! The disrespect! LC now throws a wild punch that Xander avoids, taking LC’s back again WITH ANOTHER RELEASE SLEEPER SUPLEX INTO THE TURNBUCKLES THIS TIME! HOLY HELL, LC’S BODY FOLDING LIKE AN ACCORDIAN, XANDER PAYNE YELLING AT HIS BROKEN CORPSE! HE DRGAS LC ONTO HIS SHOULDERS AND DELIVERS A REVERSE USHIGOROSHI!!!!! THAT KNEE TO THE FACE OF A FALLING LC, THAT SURELY PUT HIM OUT OF HIS MISERY! THIS HAS BEEN A WAR BUT XANDER PAYNE IS ABOUT TO END IT!
Stew-O: Xander puts LC onto the top turnbuckle, both men exhausted, but Payne wants one final big move to seal LC’s fate! He wants to put a stamp on this match! He’s climbing up the turnbuckles, LC with elbows to the head of Xander, but Xander drops a huge first on the face of LC, and again! Trying to snuff out any chance of LC leaving this arena with a victory! XANDER’S STANDING ON THE TOP ROPE, TRYING TO BRING LC TO HIS FEET! LC TRYING TO GRAB THE TURNBUCKLE, BUT XANDER WANTS TO DROP HIM TO THE CANVAS! HE’S LOOKING FOR ‘RIPTIDE’ FROM THE TOP ROPE! NO WAY CAN HE GET LC UP FOR THE POWERBOMB!

WAIT, LC WITH A THUMB TO THE EYE, TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY! NOW A KNIFE EDGE CHOP ON THE TOP! XANDER’S TEETERING! HE’S ON WOBBLY LEGS, NOW IT’S PAYNE WHO GRABS ONTO THE TOP ROPE FOR SURVIVAL!

(DING! DING! DING!)
Flannery McCoy: AWOWKAOIKDKDODO!!!! XANDER PAYNE PINNED THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! HE ACTUALLY DID IT!
Stephie Love: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, HERE IS YOUR WINNER, XANDERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR “PAYNEEEEEEEEKILLLLLLEERRRRRRRRRR” PAYNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Jake Mercer: After a performance like that, I have to wonder if it’s a precursor for our King of Elite 2021 tournament. Xander Payne is at the top of my list as far as bets go. What a performance and victory against the current World Heavyweight Champion!
Flannery McCoy: Well, some credit also has to go to the man who interrupted an incredible main event, Dray Fontana.
Jake Mercer: Xander Payne did what needed to be done and will leave over a win with the World Heavyweight Champion. NO MISSES FROM XANDER!
Flannery McCoy: I’m not sure what that means, but I do agree he will leave with a huge victory tonight. Only three weeks into this year and Xander has already begun as a favorite in the King of Elite tournament and pinning Lethal Consequences. What a start to 2021 for “The Paynekiller.”
Stew-O: Wow. You know LC is going to be hot on the trails of Dray Fontana after this, he’ll be arriving at King of Elite with vengeance on his mind!
(Xander Payne is standing on the ramp screaming into the air, shouting “I’M THE GODDAMN KING OF ELITE” and something else that’s inaudible as he appears to have just been rambling. Lethal Consequences sits in the ring with his head in his hands, his title laid beside him.)
Flannery McCoy: What a match, despite the sour ending. Xander Payne will no doubt celebrate this huge win with his Candian brethren, but LC has no reason to hang his head! What a performance from both men tonight, they gave it their all! Leaving every shred of energy and effort inside the ring. Thank you all for tuning it to another episode of Friday Night Dynasty! We’ll be back next week with more action and unfinished business between LC and his challenger at King of Elite! Thank you all for sticking with us!
(Xander Payne is shown celebrating at the top of the stage before turning around and heading backstage. Dynasty’s broadcast then fades to black.)
